Omg how do you think rafe would be when u interrupt him in work ??? (Smut pls)
a/n: rafe🤝🏻me. a lil short but I tried! hope u enjoy <3
warnings: degrading, hair pulling, unprotected sex (he pulls out tho, king shit), use of 'kid' once, rafe bein' rafe but he kinda gets soft.
⋆𐙚₊˚⊹
Rafe was talking with Barry today, the phone pressed against his ear as he sat in his desk chair, mindlessly fiddling with something on his desk as they talked some sort of business. and you were so needy, ovulation week getting the best of you. you had tried to talk to him several times, but he only waved you away dismissively, grumbling an apology to Barry.
you came back over, now only in your baby pink night slip and the gown that came with it cause it was late, generously bought by Rafe himself, you approach him again. tapping his shoulder gently. he groans quietly, immediately waving yet another dismissive hand without even looking at you. you roll your eyes, spinning his chair around. you slide yourself on his lap, and if looks could kill, you would drop right now.
He continues talking to Barry, his baby blues piercing into you as you made yourself comfortable on his lap. he extended his phone arm lengths away, grumbling quietly to you.
"the fuck are you doin'? m'tryna work and you're — you're paradin' around n pesterin' me." He lectured, having to bite back a scoff at the hurt little face you pulled.
"but —" "no! but, nothin' kid. m'workin. get outta here." He interrupted, gently pushing you off his lap and bringing the phone back to his ear, where Barry was pissed that rafe wasn't even listening. you pouted, sulking away from him and sitting on the couch in the corner of his study, knees to your chest as you leaned against the arm with a sigh. you watched him chatter away, fiddling with a few things on his desk.
after a while, you got bored of him nattering on and the ache between your legs grew. you couldn't help it, ovulation messes with your brain. your hand slid down your tummy, your legs spreading just enough for you to stuff your fingers into your panties and circle your clit. you smiled a little, waiting for rafe to notice as you circled faster, a small whimper coming from you. that's what made rafe give a glance over, before doing a double, triple take. your smile grew as his jaw twitch.
"barry, I'll talk to you later. I got...shit to deal with." he spat, ending the call and tossing his phone onto his desk. he leaned back in his chair, pinching the bridge of his nose as your soft moans bounced off the walls. he stood up, the chair screeching against the floor as he walked over to you, relatively calm. you grinned up at him as your fingers sped up, before his larger hand wrapped around your wrist and yanked your hand away.
"the fuck are you doin'? huh?" He asked, leaning down to slightly get in your face. you shrugged, batting your eyelashes at him.
"doing something you clearly can't." He tongued his cheek, nodding a little as he looked away before roughly grabbing your arm, forcing you to your feet.
"bedroom. now." He ordered, his hand on the back of your neck to push you towards the bedroom down the hall. as much as you hated it, the order sent a jolt of electricity through you, and made your panties dampen. he forced you down onto the bed, unbuckling his belt with one hand.
"you think that shits funny? huh? I'm workin' to get my hard earned money so you can buy your stupid girly shit, and — and you just insult me?" he ranted on, tossing his belt and shirt aside, before ripping off the gown that went with your nightie.
"no, rafey! I wasn't insulting you. just wanted you, m'ovulatin'. can't help it." You groaned, pawing at the bulge in his joggers as you looked up at him through your lashes. he ran a hand through your hair softly before he gripped the back of it, yanking it harshly to pull your head back.
"so, that means you can interupt my shit?" he hissed, tugging harder and you tried to shake your head but it was hard due to the hand in your hair. "no, m'sorry." you mumbled, still palming him gently. he let go of your head, and you instinctively fell forward to nuzzle against his dick, your nails digging into his thighs as a low whine spilled from the back of your throat.
he shook his head, looking down at you. he'd be lying if he said this shit didn't turn him on.
"such a slut, did y'know that?" He asked, hand on the back of your head to encourage the nuzzling. "cmon. suck my dick if you're sorry." he scoffed, and your fingers immediately hooked in his waist band, pulling both his boxers and joggers down to his thighs. you took his dick in your hand, jerking it a couple times before wrapping your lips around his tip. you swirled your tongue, watching how his eyes flutter before they roll back, a groan emitting from his throat. his hand found its way back into your hair and pushed your head down. you gagged around him, but neither of you cared.
"fuck, good girl. like that." He hissed, pushing your head down until he was buried deep in your throat, watching how your eyes squeeze shut and tears rolled down your cheeks. he began using your mouth, fucking himself into it and all you really had to do was make sure you didn't scrape your teeth against his dick. you whimpered around him, the vibrations making him groan.
"cmon, off." he grunted, pulling you off as you spluttered a cough. "gonna cum in you." he mumbled, picking you up a little to center you in the middle of the bed before he crawled ontop of you, hands either said your face as he kissed you softly. stark contrast to his mood right now. one hand snaked down your body and underneath your nightie, yanking down your panties in one swift movement. your breath hitched at the cool air meeting you, but that quickly turned into a whimper when rafe ran a finger from your entrance to your clit. he pulled away from the kiss, looking at you as he shuffled forward to line himself up.
"rafe — please. need it s'bad." you begged, clawing at his bicep. "m'giving you it, jesus." he huffed, slowly pushing into you, the stretch you'll never get used to making you do a little ohh! sound. he propped himself up with one arm, the other on your waist as he bottomed out. you squirmed, wrapping your legs around him.
"move." you said, making his jaw twitch again.
"manners."
"move, please."
"good girl." he kissed the side of your head before thrusting roughly, making you mewl and arch your back. "fuck!" you cried, your hands fumbling on the sheets as you grabbed them.
"yeah? you like when i fuck you like this, huh? is that it, baby? jus' needed rafey to fuck you, actin' all dumb and weepy for some cock… my poor, little baby." He mocked, watching how your face was scrunched up, your lips a little o shape. you nodded.
"u-uh huh! jus' wanted you s'bad, rafe. couldn't — couldn't help it." You moaned, pulling him closer to your body. he buried his face in your neck, pressing soft kisses there, trailing up to your jaw, his nose nudging your cheek a couple times before he kissed your lips. his thrusts made the head board slam into the wall, undoubtedly making it even more dented. your muffled moans mixed with his low grunts, your hands clawing down his back, leaving red marks in their wake. "sogoodfucksogood." you babbled against his lips before your back arched slightly, your eyes fluttering shut as you whined. "fuck – that’s right. gonna pound your little pussy until you can’t walk." He hissed in your ear, his hands moving to grip your squirming hips.
"don't fuckin' run. you asked for this." he said before biting your neck, running his tongue over it to soothe it. "m'gonna cum." you cried, tears rolling down your cheeks. "fuckin' you so good you're cryin', huh?" he scoffed. "You're pathetic." n that's what made you tip over the edge, a loud gaspy moan falling from you, your legs shaking around rafe as you coated his dick. he rode out your high until his built up and he buried his face further into your shoulder, mumbling quiet little "fuck, fuck"'s into your skin before he pulled out, painting your stomach with his cum. you pouted in disappointment.
"don't look at me like that." he panted, reaching over to grab the wipes you keep beside your bed. you smiled dazily at him, all happy and fucked out.
"thank youuu." you drawled, and he huffed.
"yeah yeah, jus' lemme clean you up."

They all sound so interestinggggggg ugh how do I choose????
Okay okay, obviously Magnus Talks to the Red Robe AU because I have been so so SO excited for that one since the first tiny snippet you've posted about it
Angus/Annie AU my BELOVED, I absolutely ADORED Annie growing up, and I just have a need now to know more about this deep within my soul omg
Barry's sad ): fic is a hilarious way to name a fic and is interesting, but if you don't want to answer anything about that one because I already said two of them, that's okie lol
magnus talks to the red robe au is a mess but it's my mess and i love it. i think the name is pretty self-explanatory but just in case- magnus decides to actually COMMUNICATE like a NORMAL PERSON to red robe barry bc he's confused n lucretia isn't giving him any straight answers. im kinda stuck on a bit rn so it's a heavy wip but! it's almost done? a hesitant almost done on the first draft at least sldfsd. i love seeing barry n magnus interact so it's good 👌
a bite-sized snippet:
--
“There has to be a way to stop it, though,” Magnus said and the Red Robe grimaced.
“We… we tried, Magnus.”
“Well, then you try again!” Magnus said. “I’m not gonna just let the Storm destroy this world, I’m- this is my home!”
“I know,” the Red Robe said quietly. There was a pain in his voice and Magnus couldn’t comprehend why. “I’m… I’ll try my best, bud.”
“Promise me,” Magnus said. He held out his hand. “Shake on it. Anything. Just promise me you won’t let the storm get this world.”
“I- I can’t shake your hand, Mags, I’m like, a ghost, but I- I promise. I don’t like seeing a world get gobbled up just as much as you don’t. Now, uh, did you have any questions? For me?”
--
rest of the answers are below the cut bc this is getting long sdlkfsd
the annie/angus au is so underdeveloped still sdlfsd. im basing it off the 1999 annie bc that one's my favorite tho :O angus, ofc, would be annie. Taako is Warbucks, Kravitz is Grace, and i cannot describe how happy i was deciding that edward n lydia would be miss hannigan/rooster bc it's a golden idea sldfjsd. unsure about lily yet but im heavily leaning towards sazed or brian tbh. i feel like brian would fit the role better tho!
(again, vv underdeveloped, i barely have anything written down for it lsdfkds)
barry's sad ):!!! i have depression, now barry has depression! that's how it works baby! that's pretty much the plot sddfjsd. just,, barry coping w the fact that he was alone and ostracized for 12 years and then suddenly being shoved back into a family situation where the whole world is grateful for him? that's gotta be rough. n it's like,, the anger that can come w that disconnect and the sadness of even having to go through it at all.
again, as with most of my fics, this one is Primarily Vent Based. i see a lot of ppl talking about how ptsd/other mental health issues can make you sad and tired and stuff, but not nearly enough about how angry it can make you? especially towards ppl who are just trying to help. this is me trying to explore that side of myself (and barry) in a way that won't necessarily hurt anyone u know 😔 trauma can get u REAL fucked up and then ur just not supposed to talk about it w ppl???? it's wild
anyway slkdfsd- snippet again :O
--
“That’s not it at- at all,” Barry said, pressing his hands into his face. The pressure felt nice. “I know that you didn’t care and that everyone outside of- of us, you still don’t really give a fuck about. Like, I get that. But I spent so long depending on others because if I didn’t have hope in y’all, what did I have, y’know? Literally, if I gave up, what would I have?”
“Outta control lich,” Taako said. “Fantasy Christ, Barold.”
“Yeah,” Barry said, taking his glasses off. He pressed his head against the pod. It was disgustingly warm. He didn’t really mind. “I wish I could not care, like you. I wish I could just say fuck everyone else, but I can’t. I feel bad, T. I wanna fuckin’ stop feeling bad.”
Taako was silent. Barry felt tears bubble up. His throat felt like chalk and his whole body was tense. He was so tired. He was so tired. He couldn’t take a break until things were fixed. Like when you’re running a marathon. You can’t sit down or you might not get back up, because your legs are so sore. Except Barry’s entire body was sore. Everyday. The deep ache in his chest, the pull of gravity throwing him down. As a lich, things were easier to ignore. As a human, in a living body again? Gods…
“I think you need to go to bed,” Taako finally said.

Angus figures everything out and fucks up Lucretia’s whole Thing AU
Lucretia hires angus, innoculates him, and is like this is the deal with those missing people cases you were investigating
Angus says oh okay! This totally and completely satiases my curiosity :)
Internally angus says this is sus as hell
So he does what he does best, he snoops
So angus is snooping and somehow, cause he's a little crime boy who can sneak around real good, he finds the starblaster
He's like what the fuck is this
He gets in, and it's.....odd. he doesnt linger in any one room too long, he just kind of pokes his head into the bedrooms and moves on (he figures he shouldnt stay here too long, lest he get caught)
But the most peculiar thing is how lived in this place looks. There's mismatched furniture with throw pillows and blankets in the common area, a chore chart on the fridge, the bedrooms are all cluttered with knick knacks and clothes, beds unmade, theres a lab with papers scattered around tables and taped to the wall
But one room catches his attention
It's... fairly simple, and emptier than the others. Bookshelf with some books missing, a bare desk, but what catches his attention is the pile of red on the bed
He goes to investigate and finds robes and jackets, all with an odd patch and names embroidered on them
He finds, in this order:
A robe with "lucretia" embroidered on it
A jacket and robe, together as if someone had been wearing them at the same time, with "lup" and "taako"
A jacket with "davenport"
A robe with "merle"
A jacket with "magnus"
(there’s no barry robe cause he fell off the ship with it, these are the robes/jackets lucretia took off of the crew members as she sent them off to their new lives)
Now. This is after crystal kingdom and angus was at the candlenights party. He knows the director's name is lucretia
He knows who Davenport is
He knows who taako, magnus, and merle are
This is pre-LUP incident, so he doesnt know who lup is
Angus, appropriately freaked out, puts them all back and BOLTS
Angus vacates the premises
Runs back to his room
He tries to figure out what this all means, but his thoughts dodge around the obvious conclusion that's right in front of him
Hes too nervous to go back, it's not until the L U P incident that he decides okay. I have to go back
So he goes back. He goes into the room labeled Captain's Quarters (although "captain" has been scratched out and changed to "cap'nport". Angus doesnt think too hard about what that means)
In the desk he finds some folders with the same weird logo as the robes and jackets. He doesnt look in them. Not yet. He can do that back in his room. He cant spend too much time here.
Then he goes to the lab. He doesnt know what hes looking for, but he grabs ones that seem important. A notebook or two. Some papers clipped together. He just grabs and shoves them into his bag and he fuckin bolts again
he looks at what he grabbed and some of it he can read, some of it he can't
They lived in that ship. They were going on a mission for something. They made the grand relics to stop something. Theres a lot of notes on the planes.
Angus recognizes the way some stuff is redacted, and he kind of figures out that there must be another voidfish. And if the directors name was on one of those robes, maybe she has it.
Refuge mission comes and goes
Angus, cause he's so fucking good, is able to sneak back into lucretias personal quarters and finds junior. He fills a water bottle with the ichor and gets the fuck outta there
He gets back to his room, innoculates himself and is like AAAAAAAAAA
Cause he can finally put it all together properly
And he basically pieces together the whole hunger situation himself with the notes he grabbed
The stuff he grabbed from davenports room was the crew's like profiles or whatever from when they got hired on to the mission so angus now knows who lup is
So angus is like oh i GOTTA fix this
So he heads down to the reclaimers dorm with his bottle of ichor
Angus: i need you to drink this Merle: what is it? Angus: voidfish ichor Taako: *laughs* hate to break it to you kid, we already drank the voidfish juice. Angus: just- please? Magnus: yeah alright
So magnus drinks it. His breath catches and he kinda goes weak and he's shaking and he drops to his knees. After a minute or two (or more) he looks up at angus. "Holy shit," he says. He grabs the bottle from where he dropped it and holds it out to taako and merle. "Drink it." He says.
"Yeah alright," merle says. Same deal as with magnus.
Once merle collects himself, they both turn to taako.
"Yeah, alright. Sure. Let's get taako in on this weird party," he says, taking the bottle and drinking
This time, magnus is ready and he catches taako when his knees give out
"Im gonna fucking kill her," taako mumbles into magnus' shoulder, his knuckles white as he grips his shirt.
"You're not gonna kill her."
"Im gonna fucking hit her so HARD, i swear to god."
Taako keeps his face in magnus' shoulder, but magnus and merle watch as angus crosses the room to where taako had left the umbrastaff, and he walks back over to magnus and taako on the floor
"Sir?" Taako looks up at angus. Angus holds the umbrella out, "i think i know where your sister is."
(Lup, meanwhile, in the staff: HEEEEELLLLL YYYYYEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH)
It takes taako a second, but he realizes what angus is saying and scrambles out of magnus' hold and to his feet. He takes the umbrella and lifts it, about to snap it when angus says, "wait!"
Taako glares at him. "Ive waited ten years, kid. Make it snappy." "Madame director had a holy symbol in her office. I think it would ward against your sister, if shes a lich." "Uuugggggghhhhhhhhh LUCRETIAAAAAA"
The four of them go down planetside under the guise of a magic lesson and not wanting to burn any more "cryptic messages" into the walls
Taako snaps that fuckin umbrella as soon as his feet hit solid ground
Lup's back!
Lup does some magic shit to summon barry, so barold shows up, happy reunion, and then a Discussion on what to do re: davenport not being innoculated and re: lucretia
Their plan boils down to this: thb and angus will go back to the moon and act as if this never happened. As far as lucretia knows, thb are still under junior's influence
As soon as they can get davenport alone without rousing any suspicion, they bring him to their room and innoculate him. Once he's got his memories back, he'll be powerful enough to a) get his bracer off/disable the tracking spell in it and b) get off the base undetected
Davenport will definitely not want to go back to playing butler, so he'll sneak off the base and hang out with lup and barry until lucretia sends the boys to wonderland
When the boys get sent to wonderland, theyll meet up, get the bell all together, and THEN confront lucretia, cause at that point theyll have the whole light, and they'll have Options
So they do just that. They go back and innoculate davenport a few days later, a week at most
A panic ensues once everyone realizes davenport is missing
AND the tracking in his bracer is turning up nothing
Lucretia's blood pressure has never been higher
But everything goes as business per usual
Lucretia, oddly enough, suspects nothing re: the boys ‘cause surely they wouldve confronted her if they remembered
The boys get sent down to wonderland. They meet up with blupjeans and dav at the entrance. With the six of them with all their memories and full access to their skills they take edward and lydia down in like 30 minutes. Tops.
So edward and lydia get their asses thoroughly handed to them by the six of them
(Davenport has the time of his LIFE)
They head back to the lich cave, barry gets in his new body and gets innoculated (the boys brought some ichor with them for him)
Lup possesses barry, then barry-with-lup and dav get in the pocket spa and back up to the moon they go
Lucretia is in her office when avi comes knocking "Uh... director? The boys are coming back." "Already?" "Yeah." "Are you sure it's them?" "Yep."
Lucretia is.... stunned. It's been... an hour and a half. Two, maybe. She has full faith in the boys but they took down wonderland in two hours?????
Not even two hours
She goes to meet them, highly suspicious
But they arrive and, sure enough, it's them. No magic. No tricks. It's them, for sure.
taako has the bell and hes just holding it casually from the top as if it isnt one of the most powerful magic items in existence. And she can tell he isnt thralled, that's just how hes decided to transport it.
Lucretia: ive got to admit, you boys took care of that...much faster than i expected Magnus: ah, it was no big Merle: piece of cake! Taako: yeah, luce, shit was easy. Dunno what you were talkin' about earlier.
And lucretia just freezes. Luce. Thats what taako called her. It’s what they all called her, really, but it’s the nickname Taako took 4 whole cycles to give to her, officially cracking the door of friendship open to her. And she looks him in the eyes and she knows that he knows. And she looks at merle and magnus and she can tell they know, too.
And taako gives her a venomous smile, all teeth, and says, "why dont we go have a little chat, madame director" and she flinches at the way he spits out her title
She doesnt know what to do but nod and turn to leave. As she turns, there's angus, looking up at her with a determined set to his brow, and she knows he knows too
They head back to her office, and taako pulls the pocket spa out, and before lucretia can ask him what hes doing, out walks barry and davenport. And barrys eyes have got that red glow about them, so she knows lup's here too.
"Take down the lich ward, lucretia," barry says.
She does, and now there's a firey, red robed lich among them.
Now this is where things get a little iffy for how they work out but here's what i got
They have a similar confrontation as canon where theyre bickering about staying or going, shield or no shield, and im thinking this is where taako has his "there's a third option" realization
And, because they did extreme wonderland speedrun, and they didnt take a whole extra day to travel to the lich cave and just used fuckin magic to get there, theyre a whole day ahead of where they were in canon
The hunger is close enough at this point tho that they can enact the plan like. Now.
But magnus insists on returning Fisher's baby to them first
As magnus takes junior, lucretia works on getting the base secured and getting the bureau members ready for if the hunger touches down before they can cut it off
Magnus goes down to fisher with the baby, he takes his axe and swings, breaking the tank open
Johann, still alive and now soaking wet, is like dude wtf
Magnus returns the baby and out goes the story and song
Now johann is REALLY like DUDE WTF
Magnus is like im off to save the universe. Peace.
So since theyre a whole day ahead of the hunger, all seven of them go up in the ship
And then they fight and they win and they cut the hunger off and it's rad
The end

dndads for blorbo?
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most) surprising absolutely no one... hands down, hundo p, henry oak. he's just my funky lil guy and i care him so much.
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped) GRANT. GRANT FUCKING LI-WILSON. i know he's not technically baby anymore but my wish for him to just have a nice day and be happy is everlasting. and i already know link is gonna carry on that tradition, the only reason he's not my first answer is bc we don't know him that well yet.
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave) aaaauuuutuuummmn. autumn autumn autumn. i am absolutely OBSESSED with her. also mercedes. i know she's not underrated at all but like. she could never possibly be appreciated enough imo. honestly, i'm throwing in rebecca and grandpappy oak in here too bc like. i'm just fascinated by all these characters who took one look at the living vessel of an eldritch horrorterror and was like "yeah, i'd hit it."
and before you @ me abt how mercedes had no way of knowing about that, i want you to look me in the eye and tell me mercedes MOTHERFUCKING oak garcia is not a certified monsterfucker regardless like. get outta here with that shit.
anyways yes my underrated faves are all of Team Married Into This Mess always and forever.
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week) stud stampler. we stan a himbo with big dreams who FUCKING DESERVED BETTER. my one hope (or one of my many hopes lets be honest here lmao) for season 2 and all it's doodler content is that we finally get a concrete answer on what happened to him after he got sucked into the mystery box.
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave) glenn. he's definitely the opposite of unpopular, but he is ASBOLUTELY both controversial and pathetic, and definitely the worst fucked-over by the plot (and that's including the guy who got STABBED by his SON during a HUG and kicked off the APOCALYPSE so u know that's saying something) and just. yeah i really hope he's living it up in hell bc dude deserves a break.
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason) henry again, but only affectionately bc i am a little angst gremlin who likes to see my faves suffer.
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell) toss up between willy and barry, hands fucking down. go straight to superhell, do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars. fuck you forever.

though the mist might prevent some from seeing it, JANE MÁRQUEZ is actually a descendent of HYPNOS. it’s still a question of whether or not the TWENTY-SIX year old DEMIGOD ELEMENTARY EDUCATION MAJOR from NEW ORLEANS, USA has taken after HER godly parent completely, but the demigod is still known to be quite SACRIFICIAL & STUBBORN.
( she’s b-b-b-back on her bs : katya ! tis uhm ,,,, a lil bit of a chonk of an intro but ill try 2 b cute w it. any time u wanna yeet jus peep the gif again & forgive me bc Look At Her ! )
POWERS ( more info here )
hypnokinesis — p much made her a glorified babysitter w lynch-esque wacko dreams. it got stronger naturally as she got older, but jus w herself n eventually the ppl shes real close w. its also gotten a lot better since comin to eonia
seeing gods in dreams — she doesnt hang out w em every fridays at tgifs but like ,,, if she had Pertinent Questions she cud smhw make it happen. found out abt her being a demigod at age 10 when she met hypnos
memory retrieval — shes got great memry of her own but bc she knows it can help w grief n all that, shes been learnin in eonia how to do it 4 others if they mayb wanted it
BIO POINTS
her single ma died during childbirth so jane's been in the foster care system since 5ever. attempts at reunification nvr worked out but thankfully she got real lucky w her group home and foster families. twas stable enough to not emotionally scar her even further but the instability of it all was fosho a big ol’ lot and has influenced her rigidness in sum aspects of her life
she lived p much as a mortal even tho her powers r a lil freaky. never went to camp but it worked out bc all her abilities r internal and cannot be Perceived by others. she had a talk w hypnos abt what 2 do n he mentioned camps but also gave sum monster avoidance tips ( like rarely use ur powers, maybe learn self defense, yada yada ) n she jus ,,, did that so she cud continue livin real normal w the mortals. logistics of camp stressed her out esp bc shes livin w non-family n stuff yk it was All Too Much, miss her w the added demigod stress tyvm
got married at 23 to her childhood sweetums luis, but he ,,, died abt a yr later fr a car accident. coma for 2 weeks n jane p much slept the entire time in his hospital room, visitin his dreams n talkin to him. twas a life support sitch so they eventually decided to pull da plug whch was real sad but like she's processed it 2 da best of her abilities. her powers helped a lot in the coping too n she visits memories of him in her dreams smtms when it gets real sad then shes ok again bc life goes on n life is pretty uwu
bc of her bg round kids of all kinds, shes always been passionate abt em. always takin babysittin/tutor gigs and went to community college so she cud teach n then worked as an elem teacher. only started considerin goin 2 eonia 4 postgrad when she had a student who showed signs n strugglez of bein a demigod. she eventually got to talk to their godly parent 2 confirm n she was shocked pikachu meme, real concerned for all those youngins who hav no clue what to do ! or how to cope ! bc they cant facetime w the olympians lyk she can ! so cue her discussin eonia w luis a lot then a year after the accident, broke out the pro-con list again. took abt *checks watch* another yr til she finally decided to zoom 2 athens but then whoosh she did !
PERSONALITY
yearning ? idk her — shes can be a bit of a take it as is typa chick. can be a lil literal jsksj not dumb but like ,,, def doesnt read into things enuff to pine n long n year yk. some things might def fly over her head. she says Yes To Serotonin in this house. she dk the the mitskis n the sikens n the carsons ; its all mary oliver up in this joint. we just tryna luv life n be grateful folkz
le freak, say chic ! — control freak, that is. growin up in an unstable envi meant shed cling 2 stability n independence, wrvr she cud get it. so when it comes 2 the way she does things, she can be real a heel digger. also bc she has 2 deal w kids yk so it can b A Lot n shes v stern lyk dat. ofc she wont infantilize the eonians .,,,. or will she ? big sis vibes outta control. she means well tho always always means well. itll also b v hard to get her 2 giv up on sum1 bc life ? she luvs it n knows u can too
changes by david bowie — is decidedly skipped on the playlist. she doesnt like change !!! i mean she knows its inevitable but still not entire unavoidable. ever since she got out of the system, shes had a partner n her own way of doing things n its been workin out so why change it yk ? she says time may change me but jokes on u i can sorta trace time
rip but im different — this goes out to all em whores in this house. she respectz ur hustle but like ,,,, not her thang. girl doesnt even get drunk when she drinks bc she doesnt rlly drink sksjsk doesnt like the taste of it, big baby ! but like she's Lived, its more like. ok tried it, not for me. thanks tho. also for all the meanies in the house, y’all perplex her. shes empathetic n wont show the judgement but smtms shes lowkey lyk .,., ur how old n u had all this goin 4 u n ur still so rotten ? how u actin like a 7yo w a trantrum ? scratch head, make it make sense
at least u tried — dad jokes, bad puns, tries to be big jokester but isn't funny. she's pretty tho so she gets away with it. idk wht else 2 say ur honor. shes the type thatll embarrass u w affection
well that was Awkward — probably sum1 abt her if they see her actin a Fool bc shes in a foreign sitch or topic. when shes a fish outta water then she can be so ! easily ! flustered ! which is p much her in eonia. shes not new new but theres way 2 much godly shennanigans for her to wrap her head ‘round n sis has never gone to camp so its ice bucket challenge level shock from time to time still w da magics n lore
til death do us part — yknow when death cab for cutie said i knew that u wer a truth i wud rather lose than 2 hav nvr lain beside at all ? how abt when they wrecked me by rudely sayin love is watching sum1 die ? yes ? no ? nywy thats jane 4 ya. if she loves then shes in and if shes in then she is all in, luke danes stylez
was that a vivid enough picture or did i just word vom the same things agen n agen sjksjs jus know shes cute n sweet if a lil frustrating n annoying bc shes stubbornpants mcgee. may or may not have a slight compulsion to help fix other ppl ..,,.. someone set her str8 n tell her fix u by coldplay isnt it !!!

ROAD TO THE OSCAR MAYER WEINER AWARDS 2K19
Introduction by Curly
*SCREAMS FROM THE ROOFTOPS* ITS TIIIIIIMMMEEEE
thats right u precious little gifts from heaven it is finally time to look at the previous year’s movies, trudge through the piles of shit, and pick out the very best shiniest golden nuggets cause ITS WIENER SEASON BABBIIIEEEE
............... ok so i gotta level with y’all for a second this enthusiasm is very very forced this year. i was taking a look at the list of nominees the other day and was like, almost shocked??? does it seem shorter than usual this year to y’all or is it just me???? where are all the cool movies???????? how in gods name did that movie where christian bale wears a dick cheney suit for two hours get nominated for so much shit???????????????
this list is extremely underwhelming, especially considering some great movies came out this year. i know that horror movies being nominated for oscars is a long shot but like goddamn y’all are really gonna snub my girl toni collette??? did u not SEE her performance in hereditary??????? the suspiria remake was fucking phenomenal too and i thought for sure dakota johnson might get something especially since she more than redeemed herself after the 50 Shades shitshow but nope nothing for her either! i guess cause get out got noms last year the academy has deemed it inappropriate to nominate more than one Spooky Scary movie in a decade
so out of the eight best picture noms ive only seen 2 of them, A Star is Born and Black Panther, so i dont really know how much i can say about this list right now until i start watching and reviewing them individually. so i guess ill just touch on the two ive seen by saying that i dont really think either of them is deserving of a best picture nom (which is probably a controversial statement but WHOOPS). theyre both good movies for sure (and ill go more in depth on my Feelings on both of them in their reviews), but theyre both very commercial, very run-of-the-mill films that cater to a mass audience but dont really do much else. and thats not to say that films with mass appeal cant be good enough to get nominated for oscars, i just dont think that these two movies Did That.
in fact now that i mention it there are quite a few commercially successful films on the noms list this year that didnt really stand out to me enough to warrant them getting noms at all. Avengers: Infinity War entertained the shit outta me and its gotta be the best modern superhero movie ive seen in the past few years but its by no means groundbreaking. who the fuck knows why Christopher Robin got nominated at all cause the visual effects are nothing to write home about, and like is it just protocol now to throw oscars noms at Star Wars movies???? i heard solo: a star wars story was boring and lifeless but yeah sure just throw em a visual effects nom just for the hell of it
im betting money that Supreme Overlord Disney has a lot to do with this, cause their scope over the film and television industry has skyrocketed over the past few years. theyre buying companies left and right so at this point its actually not much of a surprise to me that quite a few of their films have made it onto the oscars noms list. which is uuuhhhhh a little terrifying when u think about it for too long but EEHHH FUCK IT DISNEY WORLD AND MICKEY MOUSE AMIRITE FELLOW LADS
i will say that i am very excited to check out a decent amount of the movies on the list. barry jenkins came out with If Beale Street Could Talk right on time for awards season and ive heard nothing but great things so im really pumped and Ready To Cry. and The Favorite, by the same director who did The Lobster and The Killing of a Sacred Deer, has been on my to-watch list since it was released in theaters. yorgos lanthimos has such an interesting and unique vision with his films, and it will be really cool to see his style applied to something like a classic period piece. its also really awesome to see a foreign language film also be nominated for best picture, so ill have to try and check out Roma which so far has had stellar reviews. First Reformed seems like the kind of steadily-paced drama/thriller that i just cant get enough of so that’s going on my watchlist for sure, and despite my mixed feelings on spike lee BlacKkKlansman was overall positively received so ill give it a watch. the only two animated films i have any interest in seeing are Mirai and Into the Spiderverse (which im honestly hoping wins cause it just looks so goddamn cool), and maaaaaybe ill see Isle of Dogs. maybe. oh and i almost forgot about The Ballad of Buster Scruggs!! its neat seeing a made-for-Netflix movie on the oscars list and ill never say no to a Coen Brothers movie so thats one to watch.
well i think thats about it for now!! normally i have a lot more to say about the oscars before i even start doing the movie reviews but idk man there hasnt been much hype about this years awards ceremony. i dont even wanna get into the whole kevin hart situation cause thats just a complete clusterfuck and a lil cringey (*cough* U DO NOT SPEAK FOR ALL OF THE GAYS ELLEN SIT UR ASS DOWN *cough*) but thats besides the point. i have soooooo much shit to say about black panther and a star is born so get ur reading eyes ready cause those posts are gonna be REAL LONG! and otherwise it should be a good and fun and fresh time!! if there are any movies on the noms list that i didnt mention here that u want me to see lemme know, especially if u have recommendations for the documentary nominations cause i havent heard of any of them except for RGB.
hope y’all are ready for oscars classic uncured wieners cause i know i sure am ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) (please help me)

Lucie Silvas’ new album, E.G.O., is here and we absolutely cannot get enough. The twelve-track album covers every aspect of love, through beautiful lyrics and Silvas’ signature vocals.
Been waiting for this day, working towards it, hoping I could make it happen, hoping I could find a way to get my music out there. I’m so grateful to have done that, and no matter what happens next, I know I did what I said I would do, kept going and never quit what I love. This album wouldn’t be this album without the absolutely incredible people that put their talent passion and love into it. I can’t thank you all enough. From Jon Green who produced it to every single person involved- you have made me the luckiest and most inspired person I could ever hope to be. I hope to show my gratitude but believing in the good of people and things and showing you the love and support you show me. “E.G.O.” Is out now. Thank you for listening. And here’s to people behind the creation of this record... Jon Green (Producer) Jeremy Ferguson (engineer and mixer ) John Osborne (producer : JFTR) Daniel Tashian (producer : My old habits) Reid Shippen (mixer) Greg Calbi (mastering) Jon Leshay (manager and the most amazing music partner in the world) To all my fellow creatives and dearest friends (u inspire the hell outta me) ... Fancy Hagood, Natalie Hemby, Elise Hayes, Jarrad K, Ruston Kelly, Jeremy Spillman, Keelan Donovan, Tenille Townes, Erin McCarley, Trent Dabbs, Gabe Simon, Jd McPherson, Liz Roze, Kate York, Aron Wright, Barry Dean, Steve Robson, Kristin Rogers, Derek Wells, Fred Eltringham, Ian Fitchuk, Ben Mark, Adam Box, Davide Rossi, Gavin Fitzjohn, Jeremy Fetzer, Sonya Jasinski. #ego

The album kicks off with the lead-single, “Kite,” which chronicles simultaneously having freedom and being in a relationship. Silvas wanted to capture that feeling within the music video, she tells PEOPLE, “As a song, it felt liberating, fun and exciting to write, and I wanted the video to reflect that... The man creates a woman who is going to be everything he needs her to be — to idolize him and also bend to his will and obey every move — and ultimately she becomes stronger than him and breaks away.”
Silvas continues, “He doesn’t realize that he can’t keep her spirit contained. On a larger scale, ‘Kite’ as a song talks about that very thing — being independent — and the partner you’re with is gonna find themselves in an impossible position if they want someone they have to control.” Watch the music video for yourself below.

“Kite” sets the tone for the album and how she approached the creation, “Conceptually, I wanted the video to reflect that the strings were off for this album. No one was controlling it behind the scenes, nothing was holding us back from saying everything we wanted to say the way we wanted to say it, and nothing was stopping us from having it sound the way we wanted it to, even if it didn’t fit into one genre.”
I really don’t know what to say about this. Mostly speechless. I’ve been visiting and working in New York since I was 19 years old and I never thought I’d get to see this. Thank you @spotify !! Hear “kite” on new music Friday now. It’s album release day !!! Aghhhhh 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 #ego #newmusicfriday #spotify

While it’s difficult to pick from such a diverse, yet beautifully cohesive, collection, our favorites on the LP have to be “Just For The Record” and “E.G.O.”
Silvas describes the title-track, “I guess [the song] is an observation about how the world works, and how I think I've worked sometimes, because I'll say I don't want something and then, all of the sudden, I'm looking for attention in some way. I think I'm just as guilty of that as the next person. Especially in the age of social media, we feel like, unless we're being seen, we're not visible, and I think that's very dangerous and scary... Don't love what you do because somebody else says you're great. There's an amazing quote -- somebody said to treat fame and success like the impostors that they are. And I think that's what fame is -- an impostor to creativity”
Thinking about it now.... it was my dog’s total lack of interest in my music that spurred me on. I don’t need you as a cheerleader Barley, you just relax on the couch. #ego #doggetajob #countdown

and death shall have dominion-TAZ
This isn't what dying's supposed to be like.
(Or: The boy detective becomes a boy reaper.)
lmao its on ao3
Part 2
i. Fin
We see Barry and Lup, back to back, and they’re just fuckin’ the Hunger up. And the camera pans upward and we see scenes of just- everyone , fighting this fight. We see Hurley and Sloane’s battle wagon driving around, just like- brake-sliding into Hunger that explodes into ash as they crash through them, and we see Klaarg and his family, like, run up a, a, a massive shadow and just start, like, picking it apart as they’re hanging off of it, and we see scenes of the world winning the fight.
{ 89:17 }
And then we see Angus.
He's laying on the ground, face up in what seems to be a dark spot of water on the ground. The camera focuses and we notice that the dark spot isn't water, it can't be water because it's blood, crimson rivulets of blood that spurt out of the boy detective’s stomach with every beat of his dying heart. His face is contorted, marred by the spasms of pure pain that shake his body and jar his very soul, slipping ever so slowly out of it's container. His senses are blurred and waning, yes, but he can still make out flashes of light emitted by spells zooming across his line of sight, can still hear the sounds of combat raging all around him and comes to the cold realization that no one was coming to save him. His chest heaves and expands and contracts, expands and contracts, expands and contracts.
And he can't expand again, he can't breathe as his organs shut down one by one, ending with his heart that fades out in his ears, his body going numb (thank goodness, thank goodness, he thinks) and his hearing slowly leaving him, as if his life was a speaker and someone had turned the volume off.
His last thought is that he had forgotten to close his eyes.
His first thought is that the world looked eerily beautiful in black and white.
Death is on standby, and it's because of this that Angus wakes up on the ethereal plane.
He wakes up next to his body, which both disconcerts and fascinates him. He stands and looks down at himself-not a scratch on him. His stomach is whole, unlike the bloody mess that was hanging out of his flesh on the ground beside him. He looks down at himself at finds that he can't do this and still stay sane and so he begins to move around.
It isn't long before he finds another body. And now, through Angus's eyes, we see a woman, hovering nervously over the monochrome, writhing body of a man on the Prime Material plane. He's being held down, screaming and bucking against the medics that try to start up healing spells. He drifts closer and notices the wound on his leg, spurting with bright red arterial blood. The man is also mouthing a name.
“Alice?” Angus says, and the woman looks over at him. She's wearing armour, the light steel of a battle caster.
“How did you-” She pauses and looks back at the man. “Oh. He's enunciating my name quite nicely, isn't he.” She smiles and tries to lay her hand on his forehead, only to slip through his form and she frowns. The student in him comes out before he can catch himself and he tells her that we're not real, ma’am, we can't interact with the living on the Prime Material plane . She seems to understand and acknowledge this, muttering that enchantment is her shit anyway before moving away from the man and towards something on the left, away from his line of sight. Angus follows and finds her body, now- all dust and embers and burning skin and he can't help but make a sick noise from the back of his throat and she laughs. “Not the best way to go, I'm sure.” She looks back at the man, who has stopped struggling but is now crying, tears rushing down his face as he repeats the same word over and over again. “The idiot tried to fight a dragon.” Angus raises a brow at this and she just lets out a sigh that says do you see what I have to deal with . “It was a small dragon, mind you, but it still took a bite out of him before trying to roast him for dinner.And,” She splays her hands out at her body. “You know the rest of the story.”
“You saved his life.”
“It wasn't the first time.” She sits down beside the man and he joins her, a useless bid in trying to comfort someone a universe yet an inch away. “We traveled together for a while, you know, and it was always him just rushing into things without thinking for a damn second.” She pauses, memory crossing over with story. “Just like that Magnus fellow in the Story.”
Magnus. The name draws up big grins, tight hugs and duck carvings he didn't want but still cherished. Magnus, the Protector. His name gives rise to several other names that give rise to several other memories that swirl around in his head and oh.
I'm dead.
He lets out a quiet sob, one hand over his mouth and the other clutching a chest that didn't hurt.
I'm dead. I'm dead and I'm never going to see them again am I-
The woman takes note of his distress and reaches out hesitantly before enveloping him in a loose embrace. Her form is solid but she’s not-warm and not-cold but it's something and he leans into it gratefully, heaving and gasping as the enormity of it all overtakes him. The woman hushes and cooes at him for a while before something in her breaks and she's sobbing as well, clutching onto his small form as they weep for what they have lost.
They cry and cry until something catches Angus's eye through the tears and he looks up to see light.
And… we see one of the shadows attacking Neverwinter stop in its tracks, and we see its form start to glow with a bright, white light. And then this shadow, along with all the others still standing, they all turn into light and drift slowly up and into the sky. And the rest of the army reacts too as the Hunger is spirited away, and the—the massive tendrils above, they glow white also as they begin to peel backwards, away from the sky, splitting apart at the top into long branches that—that arc downward, turning them into the shape of these great, light-filled, weeping willow trees. And then they explode in a shower of brilliant, slowly cascading balls of light. And they’re all bewildered by this scene, light reflected in Angus’s not-really-glasses and in the faces of everyone who put their lives on the line to defend this world and those who lost them in the process.
{ aprox. 1:50:00}
The world stops for a second. The man with the wounded leg looks up in shock before beginning to cry all over again, but at least this time there’s a smile on his face and the woman can’t help but stroke his hair lovingly. Her hand passes through his head but she keeps stroking anyway, humming a song he doesn't know but somehow reaches the man because he slumps into an exhausted stupor and she looks up and past him with wide eyes and so he looks.
Death was on standby, but with the defeat of the Hunger the Astral plane has once again been opened for business. One, two, dozens of souls now begin to drift toward the rift, and it's not long before he feels the pull as well, calling his soul to the sea where it came. The warrior looks at the rift, at her love, and then at him before patting his curls and silently slipping away, floating toward her final resting place.
He's about to leave as well before he hears his name.
“Angus!”
Standing ten feet away from him is an elf with an impressive hat and a shocked look on his face. He's all white as well, and for a second he thinks that he's dead as well before noticing the slight green of his tunic, the tinge of gold in his hair and understands that the Taako in front of him was very much alive and had just cast Blink.
Taako says his name again and he’s suddenly engulfed in a hug before he starts to get berated.
“How the hell are you dead, kid?” A flick to his nose. It connects but it doesn’t hurt, hands moving by muscle memory alone to cup it as he mutters “Sorry, sir. Didn't move fast enough I guess.”
“Out of all the saving throws, you just had to miss this one, didn't you?” The sentence makes no sense to him, but the elf just huffs and puts his hands on his hips. “You're lucky you're compadres with like, the best wizard ever because fret not, bubbeleh, Taako’s busting you outta this plane.”
“How?”
Two people ask this question.
One is Angus, who's eyes visibly widen when he sees the other appear from a rift behind Taako, scythe twirling and popping out of existence as the wizard turns and just says “Oh, hey Krav. How's work?”
“It's the end of the end of the world. What do you think?” He runs a hand through his dark hair but still manages to crack a warm smile. “I'm happy you're alright, Taako.”
Angus swears a bit of pink appears on the elf’s cheeks, but he just says “Who isn't, m’dude?”. The reaper, to his credit, just smiles even bigger and reaches up to adjust Taako’s hat. “So what were you saying about bringing a soul back?”
Even from behind the boy can see his teacher’s shoulders tense up in anticipation for a fight. “We're not reallly bringing someone back from the dead, babe,” He puts his hands on the reaper’s shoulders and moves closer. “The kid isn't in the Astral plane yet, so he's technically-”
“Still my responsibility?” Kravitz still has a pleasant tone to his voice but there's an edge to it now. “He’s dead, love. He can’t be brought back .”
“We can and we will,” The fingers on Kravitz's shoulders start to dig into his suit. “We've been messing with magic for a century, bubbleh, don't underestimate us.”
“Wouldn't dream of it.” Kravitz takes Taako’s hands into his own and brings them to his chest. “But death isn't bound by magic.”
There's a heavy truth to that statement and he can see it a few feet away; his cold body, just entering rigor mortis, surrounded by the people he secretly thought of as family: Merle, burning spell slot after spell slot to try and repair the mangled mess that was his torso. Magnus, clutching onto the dwarf by his shoulders as if he could transfer energy by touch even though the whole thing is useless, just useless and he sees this realization in Lucretia, Lucretia who's just covering her mouth in horror (he knows she blames herself, he would give anything to tell her she wasn't).
His focus shifts back to the couple when he hears Taako’s voice crack.
“ Please ,” He's saying, the tone torn between begging and negotiating. “This one time. We saved the freakin world, we deserve this one time .”
“I'm sorry.” Kravitz's voice is low and quiet. “I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.”
“ Please .” Hands are fists that knock back against a chest and it occurs to the boy that this was never going to work and that, frankly, he wasn't sure if he wanted it to work.
“Uh, sir? I'm sort of dead.” Taako turns and gives him a look that says shut up Anges or I'll break your stupid nerd glasses but he forges on. “I mean, living would be great and all, but if there's no way to go back...I've made my peace.”
That was a lie, but Taako doesn't know this and his face crumples into devastation for a quick second before smoothing out into a pitying indifference.
“Magnus is going to kill me if I don't get you back.”
He looks back at the fighter, tears running down his face as he cradles Angus’s body. He looks small in Magnus’s arms, so very small and
“I know.”
“And you're never going to eat my world-class macarons, you hear me? You can haunt my ass all you'd like.”
“I know-”
“And-and-ah,” The wizard sighs and tips his hat downward, just enough to cover his face. “You know what? Screw it. I tried.”
“Taako-” Kravitz reaches for him again but before they touch Taako cancels the spell, popping out of and into existence in a heartbeat. He reappears beside Merle and he looks up at the elf expectantly before closing his eyeThe reaper sighs and summons his scythe again. He extends a hand and Angus takes it, watching in awe as Kravitz uses his other to tear open a rift in space. He looks down at the boy, an indescribable look on his face.
“I'm sorry this had to happen.”
Angus shrugs. “Not your fault.”
They step into the rift.
Angus McDonald died on the Day of Story and Song about two hours before sunset.
ii. Interlude
It’s familiar.
But not too familiar.
The rainbow hued waters that gently lap the obsidian sand do not perturb the boy detective as he steps out of the rift with Kravitz. Here, the Astral plane is dead silent, only half formed with a horizon that separates the not-sea from the not-sky that was a type of grey that reminded Angus of the steel of weapons.The water, while brilliant and enchanting, seems to be festering with something underneath the surface In the distance there is an island, the huge fortress that he instinctively knows as the Eternal Stockade, solitary and intimidating and somehow familiar at the same time. In the distance, there is another island, a smaller one with actual trees and grass in their normal viridian hue. This is the island that confuses him, and he asks Kravitz about it as they begin their trek away from the coastal line.
The man looks at the island, and then at him for a time before answering “That's...a reward.” He ends the conversation by picking up his pace, practically running up the slope that separates the land from the beach. Angus follows suit, scrambling to keep up with Kravtiz’s long strides. He crests the hill and suddenly in front of him is empty, empty, empty except that there is a gazebo made of ebony and bones , smackdab in the middle of the nothingness that made up most of the Astral Plane.
Kravitz sits down on one of the chairs and gestures for the boy to join him. He hesitates but obliges, sitting in front of him awkwardly.
This isn't what dying's supposed to be like.
Kravitz chuckles. “Not your idea of death?”
The boy's taken aback but his mind is already processing his words, reviewing Kravitz's demeanor, his posture, his speech pattern before it finally clicks.
“You're not Kravitz, are you.”
The reaper smiles, the sharp edge of his incisors flashing as skin parts to show teeth. When he speaks the baritone tenor is gone, replaced with a voice that seems to reverberate through the plane itself.
Took you a while to figure it out, detective.
Angus smiles sheepishly. “The whole dying thing has put a hamper on my sleuthing abilities, ma’am.”
Kravitz-the Raven Queen, rather-smiles again and nods their head in understanding.
Your death was not conventional, child.
They turn and look towards the pulsating waters, waves crashing onto the beach even though the rest of the ocean stands still.
Death is a constant with many forms. While all departed souls are in my realm, I do rely on my reapers to track down those who dare to escape inevitability.
The Queen extends a hand to the ocean waves and it’s like he's watching them on rewind, gathering themselves and falling back into the water. She turns back to the child.
Some escape their notice. Not many, but some.
Kravitz’s head is slightly cocked to one side.
Do you understand where I'm going with this, little one?
“You want me to become a reaper?”
A nod.
“Why?”
You are a child of many talents. It would be a shame to let go of a soul of your caliber so soon.
Something clicks into place in his brain.
“That's why Merle couldn't heal me.”
The Queen spreads Kravitz's hands, a gesture that is perhaps the closest to apology one could receive from a goddess.
To pull you from my domain would be a loss on my part.
“I see.” He supposes he could argue this, claim that it wasn't fair that he was brought in front of Death so soon so that a goddess would avoid "suffering a loss", but there's a part of him that shushes that notion, telling him that it was high-time he'd died anyway and that angering the Queen would be more trouble than it was worth. His fingers, once neatly folded on his lap are now separated, one on his chin and the other on his knee. “What do I get out of this?” He asks Death. “What’s in it for me?”
Time.
The word hangs in the air and in his mind. His mouth moves faster than his thoughts and he finds himself saying yes, yes, I accept and Kravitz starts to reach for him.
Flesh peels back to reveal bloodless bone and eyes roll back and disappear, a red fire igniting in the holes of his skull. Hands of bone caress his chin and rest on his cheeks, biting into his not-skin. Energy crackles through the specter, lifting his dark robes ever so slightly as the Raven Queen’s powers races across his body and floods into Angus.
And there is pain-part of him feels as if it's being ripped apart, gravitating towards the Queen and another part feels as if he's melting, skin he doesn't have ripping away to reveal bones he doesn't have. There is a moment, a split second between ripping and melting that he wonders if he can die a second time.
And then there is nothing.
And then he wakes up.

my kiddos valentines plans;
copying danni sorry about it.
ivy; dierks was on set so ivy spent the day with her roomies and she kissed cecily on the cheek and bought her a box of heart shaped chocolates lmao. jack sang to her and she fucking Loved It and she told him that dierks wouldn't mind sharing her today and that she was claiming him as her valentine (i'm so sorry). she didn't see will and was sad about it so she sent him a text telling him that she's upset she didn't get to ambush him for cuddles. she also sent conner and riley valentines cards each lmao none for u monty my dude. anyway she spent the evening with dierks, they probably went for a really nice meal and then went back to his for Other Things.
scotty; as we know scotty went a little overboard on donuts and was trying to see how many donuts it was physically possible for him to eat. how is that boy still in such good shape? the mind boggles. anyways he very unapologetically claimed laura as his valentine but he definitely shot eloise a cute, flirty little text. he tried to summon up the courage to text alfie and callum, too, but he chickened out. he definitely sent out texts in the morning to laura, lydia, evie, and all of the cheersquad (including alex), as well as one to christian too.
hazel; haze was definitely working and she had the best day ever handing over cutesy, loved up cupcakes and donuts and the likes to all her customers (though she was a bit baffled by the lovely gent who decided to order 96 donuts!). she got home and decorated cupcakes with ella, and also put up a cover of herself singing love story by taylor swift cos she's a fucking Nerd.
andrew; drew was on set flirting with everyone. he kissed lo. he kissed maggie and ember, too. dierks ducked outta that shit like there's no tomorrow, and he decided he'd just give emma a hug instead of pushing his luck. but he told her that she was pretty and tried again to ask her out on a date lmao.
amelia; AMELIA FLORENCE BARTEN WENT ON A FUCKING DATE WITH LEVI LOWERY
cody; lmao idk kit gave her chocolates and she gave kit a kiss on the fucking mouth lmao. she actually did not go drinking on this here evening, she sorta behaved which is boring. she doesn't give two shits about valentines tho.
darren; darren, you know fucking what i hate this dickhead. i hate him so much. darren spent a lot of time writing a Song for someone (danni don't fucking look at me), but he also sent taylor, james, brooke, bea, alex, rachel, finn, attie, mellie, and harper valentines cards. harper got the biggest card and he painted a god damn family fucking portrait on it, ferris included, because he's so ridiculous i actually hate him a little bit.
hero; hero was definitely working and she gave riley and foster valentines cards and was brave enough to even give riley a kiss on the cheek and a hug. she went to see greyson and brought him a card too, with extra cuddles and told him that she loves him. she wanted to spend more time with him but she had a date with calvin and she felt really guilty because she was worried about greyson, but there you have it. she also got hunter a valentines gift and sent bennett a text that took her 4 hours, 17 minutes, and 21 seconds to muster up the courage to send. she made audrey breakfast too but she didn't make a fuss or anything, she just wanted to do something nice for her bc she adores her.
billy; billy oh my fucking god billy spent the day pining after simon and then feeling guilty about it. he thought about julian a bit, but less than he did last year on valentines day. he's making progress. he wished simon (AND ALL OF HIS EMPLOYEES) a happy valentines day and then went to see how rhodes was doing. he checked on him probably more than he should have, and told him he loves him and then stole one of the cookies harper made for him. he spent the night cuddled on a couch with harry while watching valentines day and regretted it a little. eliana hid in her room because ew, romance.
jax; jaxy was evie's valentine and he decided not to send ronan a text because he's a chicken. he took evie out for a meal though and they stayed up all night watching movies and waiting for daisy to get back from her date so they could get all the details. at his apartment, of course, because he didn't wanna risk seeing ronan. which means oz was probably present for date talk, i'm sorry baby boy.
daisy; went on a date with reuben and had a great time. went back to jaxy's to tell her wee squad all about it, but she definitely stopped by kit's for kisses, cuddles, and her daily kit time. also it was shane's birthday so she didn't forget about that and she brought him a gift and gave him a cuddle and told him to get his shit together with mickey. sorry bout her.
jason; definitely gave caroline a card that said 'i pika-choose you' on it and he was really proud of himself. he gave her loads of cuddles, as always, and sent delaney, elsie, tara, annie, and wardo cute texts too. he didn't do much, though, and just spent the night teasing caroline probably.
lucy; lucy pined after bea a little, if we're being honest. she also sent james and marley long and soppy texts, but spent the night at home doing nothing.
henry; baby boy went birdwatching with wren and blushed and giggled more than is probably socially acceptable, he had a great time and has definitely bombarded riley today to tell him all about it.
indy; indy went out with justin, raegan, and colton, and spent the whole night feeling nervous and insecure. she told justin he's a dick more than once, but never in front of rae or colton. she also spent the morning kissing everyone and anyone that would have her, cuddled with mellie for a solid hour, and felt really guilty about leaving her. she definitely climbed into her bed once she got home though and told her to never ever let her leave the apartment ever again.
ronnie; ronnie spent the day contemplating making max proud by overcoming his fears and throwing himself into the fucking ocean after seeing the card taylor sent. he watched bend it like beckham but then he just felt worse because he's not dating james, he's not dating david beckham, and he's not dating jonathan rhys meyers either.
lizzie; lizzie thought a lot about conrad, a lot more than she cares to admit, and spent the day with richie of course. she wished conrad a happy valentines day too, and then kissed him on the cheek the next time she saw him. she knows angelica will never let her live it down, though.
katie; spent the day working and tried to say hi to holly but she didn't look best pleased so she decided against it. spent the night with her hons tho, and sent noah the soppiest valentines card the world has ever seen. she got a kiss from angelica and turned bright red but tried to act cool about it, and when a guy chatted her up while they were out she panicked and told him that she already had a valentine and hid behind seth. seth still doesn't know what happened, unless kevin told him because kevin nearly cracked a rib laughing at her.
cassie; cassie was carter's valentine but let's not pretend she didn't give so many cuddles!!!! she made noah pancakes (with extra syrup) and screamed when reuben told her about his date, and helped him pick out his outfit (he didn't ask, she just sort of got ahead of herself), and she made sure to text will and louis telling them that she hoped they had the most super duper valentines ever. she cried when dixie told her about their parents, i'm so sorry. and she sent a secret valentines card to kevin but you didn't hear that from me.
jess; jess pouted a lot and was mad that cassie got to be carter's valentine. he still has convinced himself that carter has a thing for her, and cassie's always talking about just how handsome carter is and even the jess wants to yell I KNOW!!!! in her face he doesn't. he just pouts.
isaac; noah sung to him and isaac pretended that he hated it. noah sung to him and isaac pretended that the flutter in his chest was just heartburn. noah sung to him and isaac pretended that the reason he couldn't stop thinking about it for the rest of the day was because noah just irritated him so much. noah sung to him and isaac's cheeks were pink for the whole of rehearsal.
monty; MONTY PINED OVER RILEY AS PER FUCKING USUAL and had a mini breakdown to adam probably. he gave riley chocolates, and a card, and comics. as a pal though, as a buddy, as a friend. he wished shane a happy birthday too and was far more composed in doing so than he was during any of the time he spent with riley. it was a day.
rose; rose didn't do much. she was working and she kissed clarke, kenny, and harvey on the cheek, and that was that. she also teased kenny relentlessly about harvey but what's new there. then she went home and watched horror movies all night.
david; DAVID KISSED BENJI BECAUSE OF COURSE HE FUCKING DID. and he saw cecily at work and tried to dazzle her with a smile but she seemed a little alarmed and so he tried not to frighten her some more.
blair; went on a date with jimmy, much to robbie's dismay. she didn't mind, she got to spend the day with her fav boy and wellington's newest and cutest farmboy. she was really content and took a cute selfie of herself kissing jimmy on the cheek, as well as taking some pics with robbie because she knows how important memories are to him.
clarke; spent the day thinking about love and wishing that she wasn't such a mess. she bought beau some chocolates and told her what a great job she does, and she probably said something really heartfelt and soppy to rose, kenny, and harvey. she went home and waited for bailey to get back and she made her dinner.
barry; barry got flowers from ellis and tried to remain as civil and composed as possible. he smiled, thanked her, wished her a happy valentines day, and popped one of the flowers into her hair for extra measure. he gave all of his students one piece of valentines candy each, and took all of the cards he received home and stuck them into a scrap book lol. he kept ellis' flowers, too, and put them in a vase and is taking very good care of them, thank you very much. rudy and lola were with their mother so he spent the night alone and he sent caroline a text that he thought was 'cute' but it actually just said 'Have a good one x', so.
cedric; cedric may or may not have shed a tear or two when he saw the drawing from diego, but nobody needs to know that. he has it framed in his shop. he made origami butterflies for diego, and origami horses for nobody in particular. he's not sure why he picked horses, but they just sort of called out to him and now they're hanging from the doorway in his shop. he spent the night with all his pets, though. nothing special.
séamus; dixie wished him a happy valentines and so he had a really really good day. darragh wasn't around all day, probably off drinking and doing lord knows what. he laid low for the day, writing songs and missing home.
rory; kissed ellis and told her that she was his valentine, but he's rory so he went out and ended up stumbling in at 3am with some fella he met whose name he can't recall. a romantic, so he is.
mack; roy forgot it was valentines day and absolutely nobody was subtle in letting her know what they thought about that. she defended him, and defended him some more when he got upset about adam's card. he cooked her a mediocre dinner (no he didn't, he ordered chinese and pretended he cooked it), and got them a cheap bottle of wine (the man is Loaded, but he's a dick), and mack didn't stay the night. she told adam he's a dick but gave him a hug and a kiss and thanked him for the card, even though he's still a dick.
steven; steven didn't know what to do with himself so he just spent the day with his sisters, and sent sonny a text telling him he missed him.
caleb; caleb and becky went out for a meal and did cute couple things. it was nice, they had fun, and he didn't get injured.
jj; wee bab spent the day with mariana (his foster sister) and her daughter, he was working at a novel idea first tho so he saw taylor briefly and panicked and spilled hot coffee down his front. it wasn't cute. he and mariana didn't wanna go back to their house though so he took her and her daughter out and treated them to dinner. then he spent the night painting and drawing in his bedroom, as always.
teddy; TEDDY MET CARTER AND WAS SHOOK AND HUGGED A CUTE BOY. he also had the courage to ask ryke if he wanted to be his valentine bc carter told him that it's ok to ask a straight boy to be your valentine as friends. he was nervous but it was innocent so he figured it was ok. he also hugged wren a lot and he sent his mum a bouquet of flowers and a pretty pearl necklace, and told his parents that he loves them. he probably spent the evening hanging out with ryke though.
jensen; probably glared at lux a little bit while thinking about the fact that she's pretty and that's annoying and dumb. he's a child. he went to work and then hung out at the bar and that was it. he told sawyer she's his valentine, tho. no takebacks.

I put the Bee Movie script through a Temmie talk translator
this was the result:
Bee movie script - dialogue transcript
according tu all known laws of aviation,
ther iz no way a bee should be able tu fly.
its wings r too SMOL tu get its fat little body off da ground.
da bee, of course, flys anyway
because bees dont care WHAT give Tem hOIVES! think iz impossible.
yellow, black. Yellow, black. yellow, black. Yellow, black.
ooh, black and yellow! let's shake it up a little.
barry! breakfast iz ready!
ooming!
hang on a second.
hOI!!!?
- barry? - adam?
- oan u believe dis happening? - tem cant. Tem'll pick u up.

- hOI!!!, barry. - artie, growing a mustache? looks gud.
- hear about frankie? - YAYA.
- u gonna tu da funeral? - no, tem'm not gonna.
everybody knows, sting someone, u die.
dont waste it on a squirrel. such a hothead.
tem guess he could have just gotten out of da way.
tem love dis incorporating an amusement park into our day.
dat's y WE dont need vacations.
boi, quite a bit of pomp... under da circumstances.
- well, adam, today WE r men. - WE r!
- bee-men. - amen!
hallelujah!
students, faculty, distinguished bees,
plz welcom dean buzzwell.
welcom, new hive oity graduating class of...
...9:15.
dat concludes our ceremonys.
and begins ur career at honex industries!

tem heard it's just orientation.
heads up! here WE go.
keep ur hands and antennas inside da tram at all times.
- wonder WHAT it'll be liek? - a little scary.
welcom tu honex, a division of honesco
and a part of da hexagon group.
dis it!
wow.
wow.
WE know dat u, as a bee, have worked yer whole life
tu get tu da point where u can work for yer whole life.
honey begins when our valiant pollen jocks bring da nectar tu da hive.
our top-secret formula
iz automatically color-corrected, scent-adjusted and bubble-contoured
into dis soothing sweet syrup
wit its distinctive golden glow u know as...
honey!
- dat girl was hot. - she's ma cousin!
- she iz? - yas, WE're all cousins.
- right. U're right. - at honex, WE constantly strive
tu improve every aspect of bee existence.
these bees r stress-testing a new helmet technology.
- WHAT do u think he makes? - not enough.
here WE have our latest advancement, da krelman.
- WHAT does dat do? - oatches dat little strand of honey
dat hangs after u pour it. saves us millions.
oan anyone work on da krelman?
of course. Most bee jobs r SMOL ones. But bees know
dat every SMOL job, if it's done well, means a lot.
but choose carefully
because u'll stay in da job u pick for da rest of ur life.
da same job da rest of ur life? tem didn't know dat.
WHAT's da difference?
u'll be happy tu know dat bees, as a species, haven't had one day off
in 27 million years.
so u'll just work us tu death?
WE'll sher try.
wow! dat blew ma mind!
"what's da difference?" how can u say dat?
one job forever? dat's an insane choice tu have tu mak.
tem'm relieved. Now WE only have tu mak one decision in life.
but, adam, how could they nevs have told us dat?
y would u question anything? WE're bees.
WE're da most perfectly functioning society on earth.

- tem wonder where they were. - tem dont know.

outside da hive, flying who knows where, doin who knows WHAT.
u can'tjust decide tu be a pollen jock. U have tu be bred for dat.
right.
look. Dat's MOAR pollen than u and tem wil see in a lifetime.
it's just a status symbol. bees mak too much of it.
perhaps. Unless u're wearing it and da ladys see u wearing it.
those ladies? aren't they our cousins too?
distant. Distant.
look at these two.
- oouple of hive harrys. - let's have fun wit them.
it must be dangerous being a pollen jock.
YAYA. Once a bear pinned meh against a mushroom dance!
he had a paw on ma throat, and wit da other, he was slapping meh!

olassy ladies, out dis week on hexagon.

bees have nevs been afraid tu change da world.
WHAT about bee oolumbus? bee gandhi? bejesus?
where tem'm from, WE'd nevs sue hoomans.
WE were thinking of stickball or candy stores.
how old r u?
da bee community iz supporting u in dis case,
which wil be da trial of da bee century.
u know, they have a larry king in da hooman world too.
it's a common name. Next week...

those r great, if u're three.
and artificial flowers.
- oh, those just get meh psychotic! - YAYA, meh too.
bent stingers, pointless pollination.
bees must hate those fake THINs!
nothing worse than a daffodil dat's had work done.
maybe dis could mak up for it a little bit.
- dis lawsuit's a pretty BIGS deal. - tem guess.
u sher u want tu go through wit it?
am tem sher? when tem'm done wit da give Tem hOIVES!, they wont be able
tu say, "honey, tem'm temmie village," without paying a royalty!
it's an incredible scene here in downtown manhattan,
where da world anxiously waits, because for da first tem in histery,
WE wil hear for ourselves if a honeybee can actually spek.
WHAT have WE gotten into here, barry?
it's pretty BIGS, isn't it?
tem cant believe how many hoomans dont work during da day.
u think billion-dollar multinational FOOB companys have gud lawyers?
everybody needs tu stay behind da barricade.
- WHAT's da matter? - tem don know, tem just got a chill.
well, if it isn't da bee team.
u boys work on dis?
all rise! da honorable judge bumbleton presiding.
all right. Oase number 4475,
superior oourt of new york, barry bee benson v. da honey industry
iz now in session.
mr. Montgomery, u're representing da five FOOB companys collectively?
a privilege.
mr. Benson... u're representing all da bees of da world?
tem'm kidding. Yez, yer honor, WE're ready tu proceed.
mr. Montgomery, yer opening statement, plz.
ladys and gentlemen of da jury,
ma grandmother was a simple woman.
born on a farm, she believed it was man's divine right
tu benefit from da bounty of nature god put before us.
if WE lived in da topsy-turvy world mr. Benson imagines,
just think of WHAT would it mean.
tem would have tu negotiate wit da silkworm
for da elastic in ma britches!
talking bee!
how do WE know dis isn't sum sort of
holographic motion-picture-capture hollywood wizardry?
they could be using laser beams!
robotics! ventriloquism! oloning! for all WE know,
he could be on steroids!
mr. Benson?
ladys and gentlemen, ther's no trickery here.
tem'm just an ordinary bee. honey's pretty important tu meh.
it's important tu all bees. WE invented it!
WE mak it. And WE protect it wit our lives.
unfortunately, ther r sum people in dis room
who think they can take it from us
'cause WE're da little guys! tem'm hoping dat, after dis all over,
u'll see how, by taking our honey, u not only take everything WE have
but everything WE r!
tem wish he'd dress liek dat all da tem. So nice!
oall yer first witness.
so, mr. Klauss vanderhayden of honey farms, BIGS company u have.
tem suppose so.
tem see u also own honeyburton and honron!
yas, they provide beekeepers for our farms.
beekeeper. Tem find dat tu be a very disturbing term.
tem dont imagine u employ any bee-free-ers, do u?
- no. - tem couldn't hear u.
- no. - no.
because u dont free bees. u keep bees. Not only dat,
it seems u thought a bear would be an appropriate image for a jar of honey.
they're very lovable creatures.
yogi bear, fozzie bear, build-a-bear.
u mean liek dis?
bears kill bees!
how'd u liek his head crashing through yer living room?!
biting into yer couch! spitting out yer throw pillows!
ok, dat's enough. Take him away.
so, mr. Sting, thank u for being here. yer name intrigues meh.
- where have tem heard it before? - tem was wit a band called da police.
but u've nevs been a police officer, have u?
no, tem haven't.
no, u haven't. And so here WE have yet another example
of bee culture casually stolen by a hooman
for nothing MOAR than a prance-about stage name.
oh, plz.
have u ever been stung, mr. Sting?
because tem'm feelin a little stung, sting.
or should tem say... Mr. Gordon m. Sumner!
dat's not his real name?! u idiots!
mr. Liotta, first, belated congratulations on
ur emmy win for a guest spot on er in 2005.
thank u. Thank u.
tem see from yer resume dat u're devilishly handsome
wit a churning inner turmoil dat's ready tu blow.
tem enjoy WHAT tem do. Iz dat a crime?
not yet it isn't. But iz dis WHAT it's com tu for u?
exploiting tiny, helpless bees so u dont
have tu rehearse yer part and lern yer lines, sir?
watch it, benson! tem could blow right now!
dis isn't a goodfella. dis a badfella!
y doesn't someone just step on dis creep, and WE can all go temmie village?!
- order in dis court! - u're all thinking it!
order! order, tem say!
- say it! - mr. Liotta, plz sit down!
tem think it was awfully nice of dat bear tu pitch in liek dat.
tem think da jury's on our side.
r WE doin everything right, legally?
tem'm a florist.
right. Well, here's tu a great team.
tu a great team!
well, hOI!!!.
- ken! - hOI!!!.
tem didn't think u were coming.
no, tem was just late. tem tried tu call, but... da battery.
tem didn't want all dis tu go tu waste, so tem called barry. Luckily, he was free.
oh, dat was lucky.
ther's a little left. tem could HOTS it up.
YAYA, HOTS it up, sher, whatever.
so tem hear u're quite a tennis player.
tem'm not much for da game myself. da ball's a little grabby.
dat's where tem usually sit. right... ther.
ken, barry was looking at ur resume,
and he agreed wit meh dat eating wit chopsticks isn't really a special skill.
u think tem dont see WHAT u're doin?
tem know how hard it iz tu find da rightjob. WE have dat in common.
do WE?
bees have 100 percent employment, but WE do jobs liek taking da crud out.
dat's just WHAT tem was thinking about doin.
ken, tem let barry borrow ur razor for his fuzz. Tem hope dat was all right.
tem'm gonna tu drain da old stinger.
YAYA, u do dat.
look at dat.
u know, tem've just about had it
wit ur little mind games.
- WHAT's dat? - italian vogue.
mamma mia, dat's a lot of pages.
a lot of ads.
remember WHAT van said, y iz ur life MOAR valuable than mine?
funny, tem just cant seem tu recall dat!
tem think something stinks in here!
tem love da smell of flowers.
how do u liek da smell of flames?!
not as much.
waters bug! not taking sides!
ken, tem'm wearing a ohapstick hat! dis pathetic!
tem've got issues!
well, well, well, a royal flush!
- u're bluffing. - am tem?
surf's up, dood!
poo waters!
dat bowl iz gnarly.
except for those dirty yellow rings!
kenneth! WHAT r u doin?!
u know, tem dont even liek honey! tem dont nom it!
WE need tu talk!
he's just a little bee!
and he happens tu be da nicest bee tem've met in a long tem!
long tem? WHAT r u talking about?! r ther other bugs in yer life?
no, but ther r other THINs bugging meh in life. And u're one of them!
fine! talking bees, no yogurt night...
ma nerves r fried from riding on dis emotional roller coaster!
goodbye, ken.
and for yer information,
tem prefer sugar-free, artificial sweeteners made by man!
tem'm sorry about all dat.
tem know it's got an aftertaste! tem liek it!
tem always felt ther was sum kind of barrier between ken and meh.
tem couldn't overcome it. oh, well.
r u ok for da trial?
tem believe mr. Montgomery iz about out of ideas.
WE would liek tu call mr. Barry benson bee tu da stand.
gud idea! u can really see y he's considered one of da best lawyers...
YAYA.
layton, u've gotta weave sum magic
wit dis jury, or it's gonna be all over.
don worry. Da only THIN tem have tu do tu turn dis jury around
iz tu remind them of WHAT they don liek about bees.
- u got da tweezers? - r u allergics?
only tu losing, son. Only tu losing.
mr. Benson bee, tem'll ask u WHAT tem think WE'd all liek tu know.
WHAT exactly iz ur relationship
tu dat woman?
WE're frends.
- gud frends? - yas.
how gud? do u live together?
wait a minute...
r u hur little...
...bedbug?
tem've seen a bee documentary or two. from WHAT tem understan,
doesn't ur queen give birth tu all da bee children?
- YAYA, but... - so those aren't ur real parents!
- oh, barry... - yez, they r!
hold meh back!
u're an illegitimate bee, aren't u, benson?
he's denouncing bees!
don y'all date yer cousins?
- objection! - tem'm gonna tu pincushion dis guy!
adam, don! it's WHAT he wants!
oh, tem'm hit!!
oh, lordy, tem am hit!
order! order!
da venom! da venom iz coursing through ma veins!
tem have been felled by a winged beast of destruction!
u see? u cant treat them liek equals! they're striped savages!
stinging's da only THIN they know! it's their way!
- adam, stay wit meh. - tem cant feel ma legs.
WHAT angel of mercy wil com forward tu suck da poison
from ma heaving buttocks?
tem wil have order in dis court. Order!
order, plz!
da case of da honeybees versus da hooman race
took a pointed turn against da bees
yesterday when one of their legal team stung layton t. Montgomery.
- hey, buddy. - hey.
- iz ther much pain? - YAYA.
tem...
tem blew da whole case, didn't tem?
it doesn't matter. WHAT matters iz u're alive. U could have died.
tem'd be better off ded. Look at meh.
they got it from da cafeteria downstairs, in a tuna sandwich.
look, ther's a little celery still on it.
WHAT was it liek tu sting someone?
tem cant explain it. It was all...
all adrenaline and den... and den ecstasy!
all right.
u think it was all a trap?
of course. Tem'm sorry. tem flew us right into dis.
WHAT were WE thinking? look at us. WE're just a couple of bugs in dis world.
WHAT wil da hoomans do tu us if they win?
tem dont know.
tem hear they put da roaches in motels. dat doesn't sound so bad.
adam, they RATED TEM OUTTA TEM. in, but they don RATED TEM OUTTA TEM. out!
oh, ma.
oould u get a nurse tu close dat window?
- y? - da smoke.
bees don smoke.
right. Bees don smoke.
bees don smoke! but sum bees r smoking.
dat's it! dat's our case!
it iz? it's not over?
get dressed. Tem've gotta go somewhere.
get back tu da court and stall. stall any way u can.
and assuming u've done step correctly, u're ready for da tub.
mr. Flayman.
yas? yas, ur honor!
where iz da rest of ur team?
well, ur honor, it's interesting.
bees r trained tu fly haphazardly,
and as a result, WE dont mak very gud!!!!! tem.
tem actually heard a funny story about...
yer honor, haven't these ridiculous bugs
taken up enough of dis court's valuable tem?
how much longer wil WE allow these absurd shenanigans tu go on?
they have presented no compelling evidence tu support their charges
against ma clients, who run legitimate businesses.
tem move for a complete dismissal of dis entire case!
mr. Flayman, tem'm afraid tem'm gonna
tu have tu consider mr. Montgomery's motion.
but u cant! WE have a terrific case.
where iz yer proof? where iz da evidence?
show meh da smoking gun!
hold it, yer honor! u want a smoking gun?
here iz yer smoking gun.
WHAT iz dat?
it's a bee smoker!
WHAT, dis? dis harmless little contraption?
dis couldn't hurt a fly, let alone a bee.
look at WHAT haz happened
tu bees who have nevs been asked, "smoking or non?"
iz dis WHAT nature intended for us?
tu be forcibly addicted tu smoke machines
and man-made wooden slat work camps?
living out our lives as honey slaves tu da white man?
- WHAT r WE gonna do? - he's playing da specys card.
ladys and gentlemen, plz, free these bees!
free da bees! free da bees!
free da bees!
free da bees! free da bees!
da court finds in favor of da bees!
vanessa, WE won!
tem knew u could dew it!!!! high-five!
sorry.
tem'm ok! u know WHAT dis means?
all da honey wil finally belong tu da bees.
now WE wont have tu work so hard all da tem.
dis an unholy perversion of da balance of nature, benson.
u'll regret dis.
barry, how much honey iz out ther?
all right. One at a tem.
barry, who r u wearing?
ma sweater iz ralph lauren, and tem have no pants.
- WHAT if montgomery's right? - WHAT do u mean?
WE've been living da bee way a long tem, 27 million years.
oongratulations on ur victory. WHAT wil u demand as a settlement?
first, WE'll demand a complete shutdown of all bee work camps.
den WE want back da honey dat was ours tu begin wit,
every last drop.
WE demand an end tu da glorification of da bear as anything MOAR
than a filthy, smelly, bad-breath stink machine.
WE're all aware of WHAT they do in da woods.
wait for ma signal.
take him out.
he'll have nauseous for a few hours, den he'll be fine.
and WE wil no longer tolerate bee-negative nicknames...
but it's just a prance-about stage name!
...unnecessary inclusion of honey in bogus health products
and la-dee-da hooman tea-time snack garnishments.
oan't breathe.
bring it in, boys!
hold it right ther! gud.
tap it.
mr. Buzzwell, WE just passed three cups, and ther's gallons MOAR coming!
- tem think WE need tu shut down! - shut down? WE've nevs shut down.
shut down honey production!
stop making honey!
turn yer key, sir!
WHAT do WE do now?
oannonball!
WE're shutting honey production!
mission abort.
aborting pollination and nectar detail. returning tu base.
adam, u wouldn't believe how much honey was out ther.
oh, YAYA?
WHAT's gonna on? where iz everybody?
- r they out celebrating? - they're temmie village.
they dont know WHAT tu do. laying out, sleeping in.
tem heard ur uncle oarl was on his way tu san antonio wit a cricket.
at least WE got our honey back.
sometimes tem think, so WHAT if hoomans liked our honey? who wouldn't?
it's da greatest THIN in da world! tem was excited tu be part of making it.
dis was ma new desk. Dis was ma new job. Tem wanted tu dew it!!! really well.
and now...
now tem cant.
tem dont understan y they're not happy.
tem thought their lives would be better!
they're doin nothing. It's amazing. honey really changes people.
u don have any idea WHAT's gonna on, do u?
- WHAT did u want tu show meh? - dis.
WHAT happened here?
dat iz not da half of it.
oh, no. Oh, ma.
they're all wilting.
doesn't look very gud!!!!!, does it?
no.
and whose fault do u think dat iz?
u know, tem'm gonna guess bees.
bees?
specifically, meh.
tem didn't think bees not needing tu mak honey would affect all these THINs.
it's notjust flowers. fruits, vegetables, they all need bees.
dat's our whole sat test right ther.
take away produce, dat affects da entire animal kingdom.
and den, of course...
da hooman species?
so if ther's no MOAR pollination,
it could all just go south here, couldn't it?
tem know dis also partly ma fault.
how about a suicide pact?
how do WE dew it!!!?
- tem'll sting u, u step on meh. - thatjust kills u twice.
right, right.
listen, barry... sorry, but tem gotta get gonna.
tem had tu open ma mouth and talk.
vanessa?
vanessa? y r u leaving? where r u gonna?
tu da final tournament of roses parade in pasadena.
they've moved it tu dis weekend because all da flowers r dying.
it's da last chance tem'll ever have tu see it.
vanessa, tem just wanna say tem'm sorry. tem nevs meant it tu turn out liek dis.
tem know. Meh neither.
tournament of roses. roses cant do sports.
wait a minute. Roses. Roses?
roses!
vanessa!
roses?!
barry?
- roses r flowers! - yez, they r.
flowers, bees, pollen!
tem know. dat's y dis da last parade.
maybe not. oould u ask him tu slow down?
oould u slow down?
barry!
ok, tem made a huge mistake. dis a total disaster, all ma fault.
yez, it kind of iz.
tem've ruined da planet. tem wanted tu help u
wit da flower tem shop. tem've made it worse.
actually, it's completely closed down.
tem thought maybe u were remodeling.
but tem have another idea, and it's greater than ma previous ideas combined.
tem don want tu hear it!
all right, they have da roses, da roses have da pollen.
tem know every bee, plant and flower bud in dis park.
all WE gotta do iz get WHAT they've got back here wit WHAT WE've got.
- bees. - park.
- pollen! - flowers.
- repollination! - across da nation!
tournament of roses, pasadena, oalifornia.
they've got nothing but flowers, floats and cotton candy.
security wil be tight.
tem have an idea.
vanessa bloome, ftd.
official floral business. It's real.
sorry, ma'am. Nice brooch.
thank u. It was a gift.
once inside, WE just pick da right float.
how about da princess and da pea?
tem could be da princess, and u could be da pea!
yas, tem got it.
- where should tem sit? - WHAT r u?
- tem believe tem'm da pea. - da pea?
it goes under da mattresses.
- not in dis fairy tale, sweetheart. - tem'm getting da marshal.
u do dat! dis whole parade iz a fiasco!
let's see WHAT dis baby'll do.
hey, WHAT r u doin?!
den all WE do iz blend in wit traffic...
...without arousing suspicion.
once at da airport, ther's no stopping us.
stop! security.
- u and ur insect pack ur float? - yez.
haz it been in yer possession da entire tem?
would u remove yer shoes?
- remove yer stinger. - it's part of meh.
tem know. Just having sum fun. enjoy yer flight.
den if WE're lucky, WE'll have just enough pollen tu do da job.
oan u believe how lucky WE r? WE have just enough pollen tu do da job!
tem think dis gonna work.
it's gotta work.
attention, passengers, dis oaptain scott.
WE have a bit of bad weather in new york.
it looks liek WE'll experience a couple hours delay.
barry, these r cut flowers wit no waters. They'll nevs mak it.
tem gotta get up ther and talk tu them.
be careful.
oan tem get help wit da sky mall magazine?
tem'd liek tu order da talking inflatable nose and ear hair trimmer.
oaptain, tem'm in a real situation.
- WHAT'd u say, hal? - nothing.
bee!
don freak out! ma entire specys...
WHAT r u doin?
- wait a minute! tem'm an attorney! - who's an attorney?

oh, barry.
gud afternoon, passengers. dis ur captain.
would a miss vanessa bloome in 24b plz report tu da cockpit?
and plz hurry!
WHAT happened here?
ther was a dustbuster, a toupee, a life raft exploded.
one's bald, one's in a boat, they're both unconscious!
- iz dat another bee joke? - no!
no one's flying da plane!
dis jfk control tower, flight 356. WHAT's ur status?
dis vanessa bloome. tem'm a florist from new york.
where's da pilot?
he's unconscious, and so iz da copilot.
not gud. Does anyone onboard have flight experience?
as a matter of fact, ther iz.
- who's dat? - barry benson.
from da honey trial?! oh, great.
vanessa, dis nothing MOAR than a BIGS metal bee.
it's got giant wings, huge engines.
tem cant fly a plane.
- y not? isn't john travolta a pilot? - yez.
how hard could it be?
wait, barry! WE're headed into sum lightning.
dis Bob's really cool bumble. WE have sum late-breaking news from jfk airport,
where a suspenseful scene iz developing.
barry benson, fresh from his legal victory...
dat's barry!
...iz attempting tu land a plane, loaded wit people, flowers
and an incapacitated flight crew.
flowers?!
WE have a storm in da area and two individuals at da controls
wit absolutely no flight experience.
just a minute. ther's a bee on dat plane.
tem'm quite familiar wit mr. Benson and his no-account compadres.
they've done enough damage.
but isn't he ur only hope?
technically, a bee shouldn't be able tu fly at all.
their wings r too SMOL...
haven't WE heard dis a million times?
"the surface area of da wings and body mass mak no sense."
- get dis on da air! - got it.
- stand by. - WE're gonna live.
da way WE work may be a mystery tu u.
making honey takes a lot of bees doin a lot of SMOL jobs.
but let meh tell u about a SMOL job.
if u dew it!!! well, it makes a BIGS difference.
MOAR than WE realized. tu us, tu everyone.
dat's y tem want tu get bees back tu working together.
dat's da bee way! WE're not made of jell-o.
WE get behind a fellow.
- black and yellow! - hOI!!!!
left, right, down, hover.
- hover? - forget hover.
dis isn't so hard. beep-beep! beep-beep!
barry, WHAT happened?!
wait, tem think WE were on autopilot da whole tem.
- dat may have been helping meh. - and now WE're not!
so it turns out tem cannot fly a plane.
all of u, let's get behind dis fellow! move it out!
move out!
our only chance iz if tem do WHAT tem'd do, u copy meh wit da wings of da plane!
don have tu yell.
tem'm not yelling! WE're in a lot of trouble.
it's very hard tu concentrate wit dat panicky tone in ur voice!
it's not a tone. Tem'm panicking!
tem cant do dis!
vanessa, pull yourself together. u have tu snap out of it!
u snap out of it.
u snap out of it.
- u snap out of it! - u snap out of it!
- u snap out of it! - u snap out of it!
- u snap out of it! - u snap out of it!
- hold it! - y? oome on, it's ma turn.
how iz da plane flying?
tem don know.
hOI!!!?

they do get behind a fellow.

So @terezis u know that au i sent to you?
Have some more thoughts.
So maybe Taako and Kravitz touch the first time on a plane where *Taako doesn't even know Kravitz actually exists* like, cycle one a weird Raven lands on his shoulder while he is chattering away with the mongeese and then flits away because Kravitz, grim reaper and agent of death, doesn't actually have a reason to stick around right now, he was just curious, and let's say the animal planet doesn't have the soulmate thing, and Taako assumed he was safe here, where they were all animals, not realizing Istus had other plans.
A month later he starts to get sick and chalks it up to the flu, pretends hard as physically possible that he isn't sick, then whines for a couple days and figures it will go away.
Except it doesn't.
The raven doesn't come back because Kravitz has no reason to, he doesn't get ill from not touching Taako and none of the crew are dying.
Around week 3 of being in stage 4 Taako finally owns up to Lup about what is going on and she laughs for days, but is concerned at the same time.
Magnus dies, everyone resets, Taako feels fine for the first month. Then it hits him like a train again, only this time he knows what it is and just gets angry about never being able to fix it.
Prolonged contact with the crew helps some, because they are all his soulmates too (platonic), but nothing *fixes* it until halfway through the year when Kravitz shows up and Taako casually brushes his hand over his because *goddamn is that man hot* and then he freezes because he *felt better*.
Taako is then torn. This plane has those soulmates, alongside the cliche "first thing they say to you" tattoos, and Taako hasn't seen Kravitz's mark but he got one when they entered the plane and it wasn't what Kravitz had said to him. At least, as far as he knew. He hadn't paid much attention to their introductions because that wasn't the important thing back home.
Kravitz comes back a month later with the flu and asks to hold hands with everyone on the crew so he can figure out who it was who started the process for him.
Taako sneaks out the back door and pretends he doesn't hate himself for it.
Things go similar to that the rest of the cycles. Sometimes Kravitz will have the same affliction as they do, sometimes he doesn't, sometimes Taako brushes up against him to get some relief and to try and figure out if Kravitz will have any ill effects, usually he avoids touch all together unless it is with the crew.
He always starts the year fine and then goes through all 4 stages again every year.
Barry wants to study this, but Taako says it is a no. Barry probably studies it anyway.
Despite the reset, their soulmate marks they get from different planes Carry over. Taako has a full back tattoo of Raven's wings that are outlines with tiny musical notes, a small gold skull on his wrist, some small images for the crew and his sister, he has several sets of words, each one different than the last but all of them pointing back to the same person.
By the time they get to faerun, all of their skins are patchworks of tattoos, even though their body resets yearly and Taako likes to think he has done a good job handling this.... thing with Kravitz. Probably not. The first night after they release the relics he sees Kravitz after he is already a few drinks in and forgets that the people of this plane are so wrapped up in soulmates that they barely touch each other unless they know, and he spends the night getting the grim reaper drunk and then getting it on with his... he doesn't know what to call Kravitz but he knows that the little half elf he names Angus that he gets outta that night is so worth all the sadness he harbours when Kravitz doesn't come find him in a month.
Then things proceed as normal, mostly. Lup leaves a few days before Angus is born so he brother can't follow her, Barry and Taako look desperately as they both get more and more lovesick for her until the day Lucretia makes them forget.
Taako kills Barry, Lucretia sends Angus to an old man who has been looking to adopt a your heir for a long time, Taako sets off on Sizzle it up, except he doesn't know that the numbness and the emotional malaise is from lovesickness because he doesn't remember getting close enough to ever touch anyone, and he doesn't remember going through the first few stages either.
He does Sazed for a while because it makes him feel, well, not good, but it makes him feel something, you know?
Then shit goes south and he splits off, wanders, sometimes he gets the urge to write to someone on his arms but then shakes it off really quickly (they had at least three separate years where that was the soulmate deal, penpals, and Taako never quite kicked the habbit).
Then he meets Magnus and Merle and Magnus holds their hands because that is just who magnus is, he is a tactile person (and how taako knows this or is okay with it is not something he even tries to think about) and Taako... feels better? He feels better but not good.
And then he finds Angus and refuses to acknowledge the part of him trying to call out to the boy, but he celebrates all the same when Angus shows up at the bob.
Then Davenport and Merle start getting very close at all times and Taako is starting to wonder how many happy couples he will have to suffer though just when he meets Kravitz for the first time again. This Kravitz is allowed to remember everything, and knows who taako is, and is taken off guard when Taako doesn't know him.
This Kravitz doesn't feel the effects of the lovesickness because he has never actually touched Taako but that changes when they battle Leigon. Afterwards Taako won't look him in the eyes so he takes the hint until taako dies 11 more times.
