“Dad?”

Grant Tracy finished pouring out a cup of herbal tea from the thermos. He handed it to the dark-haired nine-year-old. “What’s up, Champ?”

Jeff sat up from his prone position on the old quilt, accepting the cup, sipping it.

It was late autumn; the sun set early, so a night of father-son bonding wouldn’t mean a late bedtime. (But caffeine just might—hence the tea.) Since Grant’s wife, Ellie, was off at her weekly bowling, the house behind them was dark. Little light pollution from the surrounding farms made this a good night to indulge his son’s budding love of astronomy.

Jeff pointed up at the night sky.

“Is that the Milky Way?”

Grant took a thoughtful sip from a steaming, refilled cup. “Yep. The Star Bridge is what I call it.”

Jeff cocked his head at his father, a puzzled frown on his face. “Star Bridge?”

“Uh huh.” A nod accompanied the sound. “There are places a lot darker than this at night where you can see it arcing overhead, like a giant bridge connecting us to the rest of the galaxy.” He glanced at his son. “What do you think?”

Jeff gulped the last of his cooling tea and laid back on the quilt, hands behind his head. “I think I like that.”

January, 2039

“Wow!” Major Alison Richards, first woman on the Moon, breathed. Eyes only for the rising Earth, she flailed an arm out for her partner, Colonel Jeff Tracy.  She made contact with his suited shoulder. “Isn’t it beautiful?”

Jeff paused what he was doing and followed her pointing finger. Taking in a deep breath, he let it out slowly, a sudden pang of homesickness stabbing through his heart. “A sight for sore eyes,” he replied, at last. 

They were part of the World Space Authority’s F. L.O. mission, scouting out a site on the lunar surface for the world’s first moon base. Their current target was near the northern polar region, where water, in the form of ice, had been discovered.

“Hey! You want to see something else beautiful?” He tilted his head upwards—not easy to do in the bulky spacesuit—and pointed. Look up!”

Alison leaned back to better see the sky above her. “Oh! It’s the Milky Way!” She straightened up, glancing toward him. “So clear from here! Though, in my opinion, Mother Earth looks prettier.”

Jeff chuckled. “I won’t argue the point.” He paused, thoughtful. “Y’know what my Pa calls the Milky Way? The Star Bridge.”

“Why does he call it that?” Allison turned back to gaze at the Earth again.

“Hm. Let’s see if I can get this right. He says it’s like a giant bridge that connects us to the rest of the galaxy.”

She tore her eyes away from the mother planet. Smiling, she replied, “Your dad has a great imagination.”

“I reckon he does at that.”

March, 2048

“Damn!”

Scott wrestled a suddenly non-compliant SUV to the narrow shoulder of the desert highway. He brought it safely to a stop with a scattering of gravel.

“Wha’ happen’d?” A drowsy Virgil levered himself into a sitting position, blinking heavily.

“Blowout,” John replied as he hit the button to activate the hazard lights.

Scott clambered out, muttering curses under his breath. He was soon joined by his brothers, staring at the ruined rear tire.

“Do we have a spare?”

Virgil stretched both arms up, folding them over his head. “Should be one. Jack and tire iron, too.”

John opened the SUV’s hatch. “I’ll check.” He started hauling luggage out to access the spare’s storage.

Scott leaned on the vehicle’s side, arms folded. “This shouldn’t take long. At least you won’t miss your campus tour. We built in plenty of time for this road trip.”

“I really appreciate you guys giving up your spring break to drive out to Denver with me.” Virgil’s hands were curled up deep in his pockets. A slight breeze brought goosebumps to his skin.

“Heh.” Scott huffed. “If you hadn’t taken that gap year, we wouldn’t have been able to get the same week of break. The stars really aligned this time.”

John’s arm stuck out from behind them, an automatic jack in hand. “Here, Scott. Make yourself useful. Virg? I can’t get a good grip on this spare. Can you pull it out?”

“Sure.”

They exchanged places. John brought with him the tire iron and a lantern. The jack, plugged into the car’s electrical system, raised one corner. Scott took the tire iron and set about loosening the lug nuts. The spare tire bounced once on the macadam as Virgil freed it. He rolled it over to his brothers.

John rubbed his upper arms. “Getting a mite chilly.”

“I hear that happens in the desert at night,” Scott said, grunting. “Especially if the night is clear.”

“And, man, is it ever clear.” The hushed, awed tone made both Scott and John glance at their brother. He was staring up at the sky, turning around slowly as he took in the wonders above him.

John followed his gaze, smiling fondly. “Gorgeous, isn’t it? No real light pollution out here to spoil the view.” A small frown creased his brow. “Hey, didn’t Gramps have a name for the Milky Way?”

Scott paused, taking his hands off the tire. “Yeah. It was star… star something…” He snapped his dirty fingers. “Star Bridge! That’s what he called it!”

John nodded. “Yeah, that’s right. Star Bridge.”

Virgil glanced from brother to brother. “Why did he call it that? And how come I’ve never heard this before?”

“Something about how it bridges the gap between worlds and stars; connects us to the rest of the galaxy.” Scott pulled the tire from the hub. “Give me a hand here, will you?”

“Oh, sure.” Virgil moved in, rolling the spare to Scott. John dragged the flat away to put it in storage.

“Couldn’t tell you why you hadn’t heard it before.” They lifted the spare to the hub together. “Dad told me on that trip to the Great Basin National Park.”

“How old was I? Because I don’t remember that at all!”

Scott picked up a lug nut and screwed it onto the bub. “Five, maybe? If Johnny here hadn’t been such an overachiever…”

“Don’t call me Johnny.” John poked his head around the corner. “I heard the term from Grandpa himself one night when I stayed over at the farm. He said he’d shown Dad the Star Bridge because he was interested in astronomy and he wanted to show me, too.” He disappeared for a moment. His brothers could hear the thump of suitcases returning to the cargo space.

He returned to say something else. “Do you know that the latest recon team for the Mars colony has video of the Star Bridge taken on Mars? It’s pretty impressive.”

“Virg? Can you check that I’ve got these lug nuts on tight enough?”

“Yeah. Let me get in there.”

The spare settled, equipment put away, and the hatch closed, Scott joined John in leaning up beside the SUV. Virgil had stepped away from them a little; he moved his phone slowly from one end of the Bridge to the other, trying to capture the view.

“So,” John asked, nudging Scott, “who’s gonna tell Gords and Alan?”

November, 2070

“G’anpa?”

Jeff stopped rubbing his brow. He looked across the room to the grillwork door separating the lounge from the rest of the house. A little girl stood on the other side, dressed in a cotton nightshirt. She was barefoot, her long dark hair tousled as it cascaded past her shoulders. One hand clutched a stuffed cat; the other rubbed an eye with a fist.

He glanced toward the portraits on the wall, then back at the little girl. With a stifled sigh, he got up and approached her.

“What are you doing up, Sami?” Opening the door, he swept her up into his arms and headed back to his desk.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, thumping him in the back with the cat, and laid her head on his shoulder. “I miss Daddy.”

Jeff swallowed. The mission to Mars wasn’t the longest space rescue they’d ever done but it had the highest stakes. The colony—established over a decade ago and still expanding—had fallen victim to a microbe which had decimated their food reserves and crops. Not only was Thunderbird Three, with Alan, John, and Brains aboard, racing to bring food to the colony, Brains was working feverishly en route to come up with a countermeasure. Gordon manned Thunderbird Five, an unusual post for him, while Scott and Virgil remained on Earth to attend to any rescues planetside.

“I miss him, too, little butterfly,” he murmured.  “And your uncles as well.” He carried her over to the windows overlooking the pool. Looking out at the darkness, he had an idea.

“Come with me, sweetheart. I want to teach you about the Star Bridge.”

[sedgewick-gayble]

This is me slightly editing and reposting my ramble from a reblog so it actually shows up on the LD tag lol. Hopefully it's more sensical also

I'm so abnormal about those two old gay men. Okay. Listen to me

I can only envision them actually loving each other in the context of it being silent and unspoken acts of devotion and service that carry an emotional, intimate weight they're both aware of but never say or comment on out loud; to themselves, to eachother, or to anyone else--because if they address it then it becomes so much more real and neither of them can handle that. Otherwise all it is is desire, whether it be one-sided from Mordecai or mutual (I prefer it being mostly if not fully one-sided bc it's more angsty and that gives me life but it could go either way)

Mordecai is emotionally and romantically repressed to all hell and back. The comment Tracy made about him being asexual 'either naturally or out of his own choice' is particularly notable here, as it could totally be interpreted as him purposefully ignoring and suppressing both his sexual and romantic desires just as much as him just being ace/aroace AND THIS CONNECTS to vikdecai because he does so because he doesn't want to admit to himself he's in love. He doesn't want to admit to himself he's in queer love. And he doesn't want to admit to himself that he's in queer love with his coworker, Viktor, who's one of the closest and most trustworthy people in his life, who's bond with him could easily shatter if he finds out and rejects him

Once he can properly identify what he's feeling and figures out he has said desires, ESPECIALLY towards Viktor, he becomes more hostile and argumentative with him to compensate for that and convince himself into thinking he never felt that way. See paragraph above

BUT bottling up his emotions in such a way backfires for him and in a moment of weakness he releases all of that pent up need and they make out or fuck or whatever and then pretend it never happened afterwards and this cycle repeats until mordecai leaves for marigold .

That's how I view vikdecai. Two men who bury their feelings deep down and probably deal with some internalized homophobia who want eachother carnally and hate themselves for it (in the case of viktor it's because he has a wife and kid and in mordecais case he views it as weakness and a flaw to have an emotional soft spot for somebody, especially a coworker in such a dangerous field of work)

AND THEN there's more complications once you tie in the similarities and contrasts between his relationship with viktor and his relationship with nico BUT I'm not making much sense already anyways kgdcrhgdvc

[thenixkat]

Just picture instead of the bullshit that was everything Rebirth did and how much it fucked up Ted's character and turned Dan into less than an afterthought:

(Using the Palmera City is also Hub City and somewhere in Texas not terribly far from El Paso for setting)

The Covenant of Ka (retconned to be a cult of assassins, mystics, and warriors that formed around the Blue Beetle that held the title before Kha-Ef-Re) tries to steal the Scarab from retired superhero Ted Kord and kidnaps him to perform a magic ritual to break his bond with Khaji Da as its host since he refuses to use it due to previous 'murderous alien parasite tried to make him and his mentor who it revived from the dead fight to the death over the title of Blue Beetle'.

Let's say they use the (considered inferior due to being made by Kha-Ef-Re, the Blue Beetle that no one liked and who broke the passing down of the true blue Scarab for 3000 yrs, who used impressive by Earth standards magic and non-consensual cloning of a chunk of Khaji Da) as part of the ritual to un-Blue Beetle Ted by forcing him to bond with the inferior Scarab via brainwashing/mind control.

(in this the Red Scarab not having a copy of Kha-Ef-Re's personality in it, is its own very very young and inexperienced but murderous, ruthless, and hedonistic personality)

Retired chubby ex-superhero turned full time CEO and researcher Ted Kord isn't a push over mind you, and puts up a good fight against Scarab. Which leads to Khaji Da being lost somewhere in Texas due to falling out of both fighters' hands during the battle. Ted does end up kidnapped. And the ritual happens to break his bond with Khaji Da as the Covenant of Ka can track down the blue Scarab's unique energy signature later.

Due to the ritual and mindcontrol, Ted Kord is overpowered by the consciousness of the red Scarab and becomes Blood Beetle. Who is then sent to retrieve the blue Scarab so the Covenant of Ka can appoint a new willing Blue Beetle.

(B/c we love face-monster turns in this house. And let's throw a dark mirror at Jaime.)

Meanwhile, Jaime finds a neat blue bug-shaped rock while walking to school with his friends one day. That fuses itself to his spine when he sleeps that night and starts giving him superpowers. And gets him mixed up with the local superpowered street gang (The Posse) and the local magic artifact-collecting crime lord (La Dama).

Meanwhile, Vic Sage/The Question starts investigating the disappearance of his friend after getting contacted by Ted's wife/confidant/assistant/copilot Traceywho's running the company in Ted's absence. Apparently, Vic can sense chi and tracks what he thinks is Ted's chi signature after examining the scenes of the fight and finds Jaime a very new meta in over his head and dealing with a lot. (The chi signature that Vic thought was Ted's was actually Khaji Da's)

The Question becomes Jaime's off-and-on mentor as he continues his search for Ted Kord.

Jaime dealing with having a Zen Buddhist, weird conspiracy theorist, faceless, somewhat able to do magic but prefers martial arts, street level detective politically focused superhero attempting to help him with magical shit, alien shit, assassins, and another bigger badder fucker in an alien magi-tech bug suit all out to get the kid. Both coaching him in how to superhero better, learn how to fight without the bug suit, and pointing him at places to try and help get the Scarab out of him and/or showing him how to help people outside of heroing if he really doesn't want to be a superhero.

I think it is very important that Jaime is presented repeatedly with options to not be a superhero if he doesn't want to be. Like shown superpowered folks who choose to live as normal people (like Mr. Calhoun and my version of Tracey who is magic b/c I think it'd be neat and also funny to have two magic Traci/Tracey's running around)

And so and so, several adventures. Eventually, folks figure out that Blood Beetle is Ted and rescue him. And congrats Jaime you have two mentors now. Tho Ted is more cynical about Khaji Da being very fucking dangerous given past experiences and the murder puppy red clone of Khaji still stuck in him just suppressed. On the plus side, Ted is more straightforward mentor and around more and a bit more personable. (Also Ted Kord's tendency to take care of people he cares about. Like that man has got the Reye's family's back financially for life.)

[thelovetheystole]

Last year, the show had two press events where they teased upcoming stories for winter/Christmas/and the new year.

I've tried to remember them all and made a list with what they turned out to be; only one hasn't been revealed yet...

A 'surprise' baby / strained marriage: Rhona, Marlon, Ivy

A 'steamy' affair that somebody will rumble on Christmas Day: Tracy/Caleb

New arrival connected to the affair: Caleb's ex/wife Ruby, who will arrive this week I think

More new arrivals: Chloe's dad (wasn't new but that was a secret then), and Ella

A family tragedy after New Years that will ruin two families and their friendships: Heath's death, The Hopes and The Kings

One or two people getting in trouble and might end up being sent to prison: Angelica, (Cathy seems to be in the clear), Aaron will be arrested this week in the car theft story, don't think it will lead to anything, and it was the horse that killed Craig

Moira's big secret: Told Charity about Emma

A Christmas proposal and Valentine's wedding: Belle/Tom

A longterm illness story: Eric's Parkinsons diagnosis, (but also Chas)

A new story for Chas that will shock the villagers and may bond her with Aaron again: Breast cancer

A huge physical fight between Aaron and Cain: Will happen this week, but the reasons for it are a little vague/plotty... Hopefully the aftermath will be less so

A familiar face returning in january to help someone who is in a bit of trouble: As far as I can recall, this is the only one we're still waiting on, and january has come and almost gone...

Loads of people in the village could use some help at the moment, honestly! And a lot of them is facing some kind of trouble.

Is it a biggie or simply someone quietly returning from maternity leave? It's looking like it's not going to be spoiled in advance and just be a surprise when it airs.

Going by last year, Tracy's return wedding story was featured in all the magazine spoilers ahead of time, whereas Aaron's was kept a secret.

So far there has been talk of Vanessa, Robert, Kathy (Malandra Burrows), Adam, Scott, Kerry, Ross or Kelly (Adele Silva).

[saulwexler]

if 30 rock and bcs/brba characters had to meet each other what would they say/do

someone studied my header;) obsessed with this

Kenneth & Chuck

Kenneth is really the perfect match for Chuck. He does every errand, he's comfortable with high-strung perfectionists, and he would take experimental EHS drugs to test their side effects. Like Jimmy probably wouldn't need to be paid. Unlike Jimmy, Kenneth cannot tell a lie. As the Hill People say, "Parcell gaw say del go up de saw say."

Jack & Kim

Kim would be the perfect mentee for Jack - she has the perfect combination of drive, intelligence, humility and chaos (D.I.H.C.).

Best Jack advice? "what tragedy happened in your life that you insist upon punishing yourself with all this mediocrity". Kim would be immediately shamed out of Florida (which is basically a prison population. It's America's Australia) and climb the corporate ladder.

Liz & Kim

They would absolutely meet at a hotdog stand (or the dog house?) and bond over yelling at line-cutters. What, he thinks there's two lines and we're all in this line? He's the only genius who got in the other line? Can you believe this guy?

They agree on most things, like how valentine's day is a sham created by greeting card companies to reinforce gender stereotypes. Sadly their friendship would be short lived (both of them need a chaotic bestie).

Jenna & Jimmy

Oh my. It looks like we’ve got a slut off on our hands.

These two would be so chaotic together I think they'd be inseparable. The carvel cake scam? the kleptomania relapses? constantly hatching revenge schemes? screaming in bathrooms?? People are constantly underestimating their intelligence, maybe because they got their degrees from oceanic colleges with dubious accreditation statuses. Plus Jenna needs a shady lawyer.

Jimmy has a soft spot for blond con-women,  “They’re calling us ‘James,’ which is a combination of ‘Jenna’ and ‘James.'” but I think they would be strictly platonic.

Tracy & Jimmy

Tracy is a wife guy and when he heard about the breakup would bestow marriage advice: "Tell her you want her to donate her body to science and you’re science. Tell her, Jimmy!" Kim would never have divorced him.

[mrstracybond]

mi6 shenanigans when you got 007 & his wife working there like

tracy: OH SO WHEN JAMES BLOWS UP HALF THE WORLD, IT'S FINE! BUT WHEN I DO IT -

M: hE ISNT ALLOWED TO DO THAT EITHER, IT HAS NOTHING DO WITH -

tracy: GOD FORBID WOMEN DO ANYTHING -

M: GOOD GODS - BOND COME GET YOUR WIFE

& half mi6 be betting on whether M will be having a heart attack before james manages to fetch tracy. if he fetches her at all and isn't just watching amused from a distance before intervening.

James Bond character playlist! This is really just a general playlist of songs I associate with James, maybe I'll make some more specific ones later . . . The playlist is on spotify, but all the songs and artists are listed in the playlist notes below the cut if you'd like to listen to them other places. I've also written explanations for why I chose each song.

Ausländer (Rammstein) - This song is in German but it’s a good introduction to the kind of person James is on the surface and what he does (travel around the world seducing girls). 

Sharp Dressed Man (ZZ Top) - Continuing the trend of putting jokey ZZ Top songs on my character playlists . . . This is pretty much in the same vein as the previous one; it’s James as he presents himself to the world, stylish and sexy.

Big Space (Espacio Grande) (Suzanne Vega) - This is where we start to get into the more emotional stuff. I associate the whole Days of Open Hand album with Pussy Galore so I think this is James from her perspective. This is also where I got the name for the playlist, from a stanza I think is one of the best descriptions of James: “Beyond the duty and the discipline/I'm sure there's anger in a cold place/All feelings fall into the big space/Swept up like garbage on the weekend.” It speaks well to the way he’s a bit hard to read but under the surface he has a lot emotions he’s trying not to show or really even feel. He says he does his job out of duty, but there’s often something deeper driving him on his missions.

Northern Attitude (Noah Kahan) - Stick Season is a James/Felix album to me, but this is definitely a James song. It’s about growing up in New England but it could work for Scotland too. And we know James’s childhood has had a big impact on his life, and the things he went through could be part of the reason for his closed off nature and unwillingness to get close to people. I also think it’s interesting the song mentions losing a wife as that’s something James and Felix have in common.

Night Flight (Led Zeppelin) - Not all of this song is relevant (it’s about the Vietnam War) but I think some of the sentiments about being drafted as a soldier can apply to James, especially the line “Someone pushed a gun into my hand/Tell me I'm the type of man/To fight the fight without inquiring.” James seems to enjoy his work, but I wonder how much of his violent nature was really there from the start and how much has been encouraged by MI-6 culture and how much he questions that. He’s always in a sort of balancing act with authority there. I also enjoy the first line about “my brother across the water” because clearly that’s Felix.

No One Loves Me and Neither Do I (Them Crooked Vultures)- I’m kind of obsessed with this song but I also think it gets at a central part of James’s character which is how unloved he is despite his many sexual conquests and how he uses sex as an escape from his relatively lonely life.

FANCY (TWICE) - If you read my Bond kpop headcanons you’ll know I think Lazenby’s Bond is a TWICE stan and this is my favorite TWICE song. I associate it so heavily with him and Tracy I had to include it. I think the way its innocence stands out in this playlist is also representative of their relationship. It’s one of the few times James has had a real pure love with someone.

Cherry Waves (Deftones) - This song is perfect for James and Vesper’s relationship, especially with all the references to death by drowning and themes of trust. The narrator, which would be James in this case, would swim down to save their lover from drowning but they’re not sure if the other person would do the same.

Jaws of Life (Wintersleep) - This is a very Skyfall song with the idea of wanting to find comfort in childhood things when the world is falling apart, and thus I associate it with Judi Dench’s M, but I think it’s relevant to any of the few people James can relax and find comfort with.

A Favor House Atlantic (Coheed and Cambria) - Honestly this song is mostly here on vibes, but it could make a good James/Alec song especially with the second verse: “Run quick, they're behind us, didn't think we'd ever make it/This close to safety, in one piece/Now you wanna kill me in the act of what could maybe/Save us from sleep and what we are” and generally being about people who are in between being friends and enemies.

Lonely in Your Nightmare (Duran Duran) - Probably the most James Bond coded song I’ve ever heard. I particularly associate it with License to Kill and Felix but it’s pretty much always applicable. Like all the lyrics. Just read all of them. I know Duran Duran did an actual Bond song but this one fits better imo.

However Much I Booze (The Who) - Of course a reference to James’s escapist alcoholism and how poor a coping mechanism it is. I also adore the line “I’m just a well fucked sailor” especially because of James having been in the navy.

Miracle (Bad Omens) - This song is mostly in here for the line “But nevertheless, I’m fucking depressed, I hide it with sex and drink til it’s fatal” but the idea of looking for something beautiful you’re really willing to die for when you’ve led such a violent life is also interesting. No Time to Die vibes.

One Little Victory (Rush) - I basically had to include a Rush song as they’re one of my special interests so here’s the one I picked. I think this song explains what it probably takes for James to continue in his job for so long and so well, and in the context of the band it was about overcoming grief to do what you love again which has been relevant to James after losing various people like Tracy, Della, or Vesper. Although we don’t always get to see his grief in full, he always picks himself back up again.

Growing Sideways (Noah Kahan) - Another song from Stick Season. This is a song that’s very relatable to me personally and it describes a lot of the reasons I relate to James: burying your feelings to survive.

Nerves Normal. Breath Normal (Wintersleep) - No one makes me feel things like Wintersleep and that’s why they have two songs on the playlist. Also this song is just such an ominous vibe. They have so many songs about having a weird relationship to your body and this is one of them. I can’t explain why it’s about James. It just is. I really can’t express how Wintersleep makes me feel half the time I’m sorry.

Hit me with your FAM WiP!

Someday I'm going to write Actual Proper FAM fics, but for now...

okay, this was inspired by a line from an episode of the west wing about hardly anyone who walked on the moon still being married to the same person as before they went.

So that got me thinking about brand new astro-wife Tracy Stevens, getting warned by one of the older wives about how astronauts aren't known for being faithful... which then turned into Tracy-Karen bonding.

"I saw Marge make a beeline for you. Was she warning you off too?" "She seems to think the astronauts get carte blanche to cheat on their wives while we grin and bear it," Tracy says, before taking a drag of her cigarette and blowing a smoke ring out. "No way in hell I'd ever let that happen." Karen blinks a little at the - admittedly mild - profanity, but smiles. "She gives that speech to all the wives. I wouldn't take it personally." "You think what she says is true?" "I think Ed's not the type to cheat, and I'm not the type to divorce him." Tracy almost laughs. "Well... good for you." "She really didn't mean anything about Gordo, I can *assure* you. She's just... trying to look out for us." Tracy blows another smoke ring. "Trying to make sure we keep in line, you mean." "Well, you... you know how pilots are," Karen says, clearly trying to make up for it. "Head in the clouds." "I used to be a pilot. What does that make me?" "But you're not an astronaut." "No... I'm not." Karen smiles at her. "Marge means well, but doesn't mean we can't beat the odds." "Sure. I'm a sucker for a gamble."

Thank you for the ask!! 💜 this one is actually a full draft, it just needs some edits.

Lazenby’s Rise and Fall The One-Bond Story

In the world of James Bond, few names provoke as much curiosity as George Lazenby. Unlike Sean Connery or Roger Moore, who became synonymous with the 007 franchise over multiple films, Lazenby remains a one-film wonder—cast as the iconic British spy for just one movie: On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969). His meteoric rise to Bond fame and subsequent departure have become a story of legend, forever cementing Lazenby’s place in pop culture as the Bond who walked away.

Lazenby’s entry into the role of James Bond was as unexpected as it was unconventional. A former model with no formal acting experience, the Australian-born Lazenby caught the eye of the Bond producers after impressing them with his charm, physicality, and sheer audacity. The filmmakers were searching for a replacement after Connery had stepped down from the role following You Only Live Twice. Despite Lazenby’s inexperience, his charisma and looks won him the part, propelling him to international stardom overnight.

On Her Majesty’s Secret Service was released in December 1969 and, to this day, is considered by many to be one of the most faithful adaptations of Ian Fleming’s novels. Lazenby’s Bond was more human, emotional, and even vulnerable compared to Connery’s suave, stoic interpretation. Notably, the film featured Bond getting married—only to see his new wife, Tracy, tragically murdered by archvillain Blofeld in the final scene. Lazenby’s more sensitive portrayal added a depth to Bond’s character that had not been seen before, and many fans have since lauded his performance as fitting for the material.

Despite these positives, Lazenby’s tenure as Bond was brief, and the behind-the-scenes drama surrounding his exit was nothing short of a Hollywood saga. As a newcomer to the film industry, Lazenby struggled with the pressures and politics of the Bond machine. His inexperience, combined with his independent, rebellious nature, led to clashes with both the producers and the film’s director, Peter R. Hunt. He was vocal about his dissatisfaction with the way the production was handled and had difficulties adjusting to the strict rules that came with being James Bond.

For more information, visit the official website www.pennyplant.com

However, what sealed Lazenby’s fate as a one-and-done Bond was his own decision to walk away. Influenced by countercultural movements of the 1960s and the changing attitudes towards stardom, Lazenby came to believe that the role of James Bond was a relic of a bygone era. In a now-famous move, Lazenby refused to sign a multi-film contract, rejecting what could have been a long and lucrative career as 007. His decision stunned the Bond producers and left fans wondering why an actor on the cusp of superstardom would abandon the role that made him a household name.

Lazenby’s gamble, however, did not pay off. His departure from the Bond franchise left him without a significant acting career to fall back on. In the years that followed, Lazenby appeared in a few low-budget films and TV shows, but he never managed to recapture the same level of fame or success. The role of Bond was quickly recast, with Sean Connery returning for Diamonds Are Forever (1971), followed by Roger Moore’s long tenure starting with Live and Let Die (1973).

While Lazenby’s exit from Bond may have seemed like a misstep, his decision was rooted in a sense of personal integrity and a desire to forge his own path. He later admitted that he didn’t realize the significance of what he was walking away from at the time but never expressed deep regret about his choice. In interviews over the years, Lazenby has often reflected on his brief time as Bond with humor and humility, acknowledging that while it was a whirlwind experience, it was not meant to define his entire career.

In recent years, there has been a growing appreciation for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service and Lazenby’s portrayal of Bond. What was once considered a lesser entry in the franchise has been reassessed as one of the best films in the series. Lazenby’s portrayal is now celebrated for its emotional depth and grounded approach to the character, with many fans lamenting that he didn’t continue in the role.

Lazenby’s unique Bond legacy is not just a cautionary tale of an actor who gave up on one of the most coveted roles in cinema but also a testament to his independent spirit. While he didn’t go on to have the illustrious film career that some of his successors enjoyed, Lazenby remains an intriguing figure in Bond lore, known for making one of the boldest decisions in Hollywood history.

Today, George Lazenby’s story serves as a fascinating footnote in the annals of Bond history. His self-engineered exit from the role has given him a permanent place in the 007 pantheon, not as the Bond who failed but as the one who dared to walk away. In doing so, Lazenby crafted a legacy that is perhaps more complex and enduring than if he had simply stayed and continued as Bond. Even with only one film under his belt, George Lazenby remains, for many, a Bond to remember.

Chapter Note: Written as part of the TAG Secret Santa using the prompt "Unconventional Christmas traditions."

-----

The tradition had started, like most odd family traditions, with a throwaway comment one Christmas.

Jeff could not have been older than five. His parents had always done Christmas with flair. As soon as the Christmas season rolled around, Sally pulled out tinsel and garland and nutcrackers and the house became festooned in Christmas finery almost as soon as the turkey from Thanksgiving was in the refrigerator. They had always set out cookies and milk for Santa and Sally had always insisted on putting out a carrot or two for the reindeer. But on this particular Christmas, the winter had been unseasonably warm and the winter sun had been the brightest it had been in a long while.

“Do you think that Santa’s going to get hot in all that fur?” Jeff had asked as Sally held the garland for her husband, who was up on a ladder as he adjusted and fluffed the greenery.

“What?” had been the reply, as the question had seemed so completely out of the ordinary that it had taken Sally a moment to process the question.

“Well, it hasn’t gotten cold enough for it to snow,” Jeff said. He had been painfully aware of that fact, since he had had to attend every day of kindergarten this winter due to lack of snow days and Mrs. Westerson didn’t seem to have an ounce of the Christmas spirit leading up to the end of the year (at least as far as Jeff was concerned). “And if he’s running around in fur and velvet like he does when we see him at the mall…don’t you think he’s gonna be a little hot?” Sally looked up at Grant, who was forcing back a smile as he continued to adjust.

“He’s probably going to be ok,” Sally said. “It gets real cold way up high where he flies with the reindeer, so he’ll probably be alright.”

“But what if he isn’t? What if it’s too hot and he passes out and no one can get their presents?” Jeff asked. To his five-year-old mind, it was a very real possibility. Grant let out a little snort from where he had failed to keep down the laugh. Sally looked up to him with a frown and Grant turned slightly on the ladder, looking down at his son.

“Well, that would be a pickle,” he said. “What do you think we could do to help him out, son?” Jeff had thought about it for a long thirty seconds before he looked up to his father.

“Well, when you are doing stuff out on the farm, you always have a mug of coffee with you when it’s cold. Maybe we can get him a mug like yours and put some ice water in it so it will be cold for him when he comes to our house.” Grant smiled.

“I think that that is an excellent idea,” he said, looking to his wife. Sally rolled her eyes but smiled knowing full well that she would be buying a special Christmas thermos the next time that she was out at the store.

So it came to be that every Christmas, Jeff would check the weather and decide whether Santa needed a hot drink or a cold drink to get him through the Kansas December evenings.

The tradition had gone into hibernation as he grew into adulthood, the old thermos languishing amidst the other Christmas decorations. But soon enough, Jeff had found himself a wife, and within a few years, his wife had also become a mother to his firstborn, Scott. Scott was everything that he could have hoped for in a son, bright and inquisitive, even as a toddler.

As he grew into his childhood, old enough for Christmas to be remembered, Sally had dusted off the old Thermos and had explained to Scott that alongside the milk and cookies, they also had to leave either water or coffee, depending on the temperature. Sally had been overjoyed that she could bring back the old traditions for a new set of children, her grandchildren.

But it was a few Christmases later when Scott had asked if Santa was able to see in the dark when he visited the houses of the other children. And it was why for the next several years, a special flashlight, wrapped in red and white electrical tape to look like a candy cane, was found next to the thermos with coffee for Santa. And the tradition carried on, much to the delight of all the adults. Not just carried on, the tradition was growing.

When Virgil was born, Scott became the best big brother, helping wherever he could with the decorations on the tree and helping his toddling brother to learn how to unwrap the presents under the tree in his early Christmases. During the rest of the year, Virgil could often be found on Jeff’s lap as Jeff watched various shows about nature and natural disasters, and Virgil’s attention had been rapt. He had particularly fallen in love with a show about natural disasters that was hosted by Kip Harris. His young mind had already begun to idolize the man.

So, when the next Christmas had rolled around and the thermos and the flashlight were set out to prepare for Santa’s ride, Virgil asked if Santa liked his fuzzy hat, the one with the fur and the pompom at the end of its point. Jeff and Lucille looked at each other, as if they hadn’t given the matter much thought.

“What would he wear instead?” Lucille had asked, never wanting to shut down the creativity or problem solving of her boys. Virgil hadn’t needed two seconds to think.

“A cowboy hat,” he said. “Like Dad wears on the ranch.”

“You mean like Kip Harris wears,” Scott had muttered, and Virgil had given him a look. Jeff’s grin had been as bright as the Christmas tree.

“I think I have an old hat we could offer him,” Jeff said.

“But how will he know it’s for him? If it doesn’t look Christmassy?” Scott had whined. Lucille had assured him they would put it with the other things for Santa so he would know. But by the time the next year had rolled around, the hat had become bedecked with garland and holly, the lining replaced with candy cane striped fabric. There was no mistaking it that year. This was a hat for Santa and no one else.

The tradition carried on and a third Tracy son was born, John. He was a fussy baby, wanting to be held only by his mother, which made holiday decorating a challenge. Lucille had taken to wrapping John against her so that she had the free use of both hands as they got the Christmas tree set up and the garland hung and the presents wrapped. Baby John had always been entranced by the glittering lights on the tree, and he had gazed at them as if they were stars.

There came a Christmas when John had become interested in how Santa was able to visit everyone so quickly. Jeff patiently explained the mechanics of Santa and how there was a special Christmastime magic that let Santa take care of all the children, making the night as long as it needed to be.

“But does Santa ever get lost?” John asked. Jeff had seemed confused by the question.

“Well, no, John. He guides himself by the stars. He’s done this lots of times already. I think he’s got his route pretty much memorized.”

“But it’s supposed to be cloudy this Christmas Eve. What if he can’t see the stars? Does Santa have a compass?”

That year the coffee and the flashlight had been set out alongside the garland bedecked Christmas hat and a new addition: a compass that had been decorated with little Christmas tree stickers.

By the time that Gordon was born, it seemed like there was a lot of things that they gifted Santa every year to make his job a little easier, and it had been the year that Lucille had added her own gift to the mix. She had bought a canvas bag from the army surplus store and had begun the work of embroidering various Christmas figures on the bag: a gingerbread man here, a Christmas tree there, candy canes along the bottom. By the time Christmas rolled around that year, the bag had become quite festive. Into the bag went the thermos and the flashlight and the compass. The hat was attached to the handle of the bag by a clip. She had told the boys that it was so that Santa could just grab everything all at once and go and the boys had been enchanted by the bag, loving the way that the thread seemed to glitter when caught in the light of the Christmas tree.

As Gordon grew, he had decided that all the gifts that his family left for Santa on Christmas Eve were far too practical. Santa spent so much time making sure that gifts were brought to all the little boys and girls around the world, and all he got in exchange was some milk, some cookies, a little coffee, a flashlight, a hat, and a compass. Gordon wanted to give Santa something properly useful, something that he would be able to play with once he was done with his Christmas eve flight. For this, Gordon had thought long and hard all year, but it was only on a school trip to the aquarium that he had discovered the perfect thing to leave for Santa.

The stuffed ray plush in the gift shop was the perfect size to fit in the bag with all the other things (though Gordon had thought that it shouldn’t matter what size the plush was. Nothing was too good for Santa). The stuffed ray normally would not have caught his eye, except it had been a bright, Christmassy red with a white underbelly. He knew it would match Santa’s suit and he decided that then and there, he was going to make this little manta ray plush Santa’s new best friend. Lucille had tried to convince him a reindeer might be more seasonally appropriate, but Gordon had patiently explained to her that Santa already had nine reindeer friends and that he probably wanted other kinds of friends too. So, into the Christmas eve bag for Santa went the ray plush, which Jeff affectionately referred to as the ‘Santa Ray’ when they prepped the bag each year.

Alan was the last of the children to be born, and Christmas eves as he grew older became a more somber occasion. They had always been joyous, but after Lucille’s death, all the decorations seemed to have lost just a little bit of their luster. The first year they had barely managed to break out the tree, and the assembly of the bag had been a quiet affair, too painful to try to garner the same enthusiasm. But slowly Christmases became big affairs with decorations and parties as the business had taken off.

When it came Alan’s turn to add something to the bag, the little one had thought long and hard about it. He had taken his time and considered everything in the bag already. He wanted to make a smart choice. Everything in the bag was to help Santa not get lost or to keep his flight comfortable, which were all very admirable choices. But when Jeff asked Alan what he wanted to put in the bag, he was a little surprised by the answer.

“I think we should put an emergency beacon in the bag,” he said. Jeff’s brow furrowed.

“I…don’t think Santa will need one,” Jeff had answered carefully.

“But what if there’s a blizzard? Or a tornado? Or a hurricane? Or…” Alan trailed off, as if he didn’t want to ask. Jeff moved to hug Alan close to him.

“Ok, bud. We’ll put one in, just in case,” Jeff said, his voice shaky.

With the addition of the emergency signal beacon, the bug out bag had been completed. Jeff’s entire family had given a part of themselves to making Christmas special for Santa, and in turn had made each Christmas Eve special with the simple magic of pulling together each item and the anticipation of an amazing Christmas morning to follow. The tradition was a way of keeping their mother close, even as Alan grew out of believing in Santa Claus. The bag still came out each Christmas and each person brought out their own gift, putting it in the same bag that Lucille had lovingly embroidered.

At least until Jeff had disappeared.

The first Christmas after Jeff disappeared, the whole house had been somber. Scott, the newly ordained man of the house, had barely found the mental capacity to put up the decorations. When he had found the bag in the box of decorations, he couldn’t bring himself to pull it out. The wound of losing their father was too fresh and the faded embroidery felt like a scar ripped open as it brought back memories of their father.

The bag had been left to languish in the box of decorations for eight years as International Rescue began to take over most aspects of the Tracy family lives. There were Christmases that went uncelebrated for several days when rescues interrupted. But after eight years, the Tracy family had a miracle: Jeff was alive. The journey had been a dangerous one, but there was no greater joy than that of a happy reunion with their father. Though the first few months of his return to earth had been filled with hospital stays and therapy, both physical and psychological, the boys looked forward to the day when their father could return to the island without hospital visits looming.

It was two weeks before Christmas when Jeff was finally cleared by his doctors to come home. Tracy Island had become abustle with activity as everyone put more effort into the Christmas decorations than they had since Jeff’s disappearance, wanting to make this Christmas special for him. There was an abundance of garland, and they had flown in an enormous tree to mark the occasion. It had taken nearly three days to get enough ornaments on the tree to make it perfect. All they awaited was Jeff’s arrival on the night before Christmas Eve.

There were still last-minute preparations that Scott was finishing, wanting everything to be perfect for Jeff to return home to. Virgil brought up the last box of decorations.

“This should be the last of it,” Virgil said. “I think these are the rest of Grandma’s nutcrackers for the shelves.” Scott smiled up at him.

“Thanks Virgil, just set them there,” Scott said as he tied off another bit of garland wrapped around the supports on the stairs. Virgil set the box down next to him.

“Need any help?” Virgil asked. Scott looked up at him from where he was kneeling.

“I don’t know,” Scott answered honestly. “I really just want to make sure that everything is perfect. You know…gotta live up to those Christmases from our childhood, make it extra special for him.” Virgil nodded knowingly.

“Yeah, it’s a big one this year,” Virgil said. “John said he’d be down in the elevator once the medical transport was on approach to the island.” He opened the box to pull out the nutcrackers and began to place them on the shelves as Scott straightened some ribbon on the garland. He hummed ‘Deck the Halls’ as he put the nutcrackers on the shelves, making the office space a bit more festive in the hopes of discouraging Scott from spending too much time there during celebrations.

He reached for the next Nutcracker, but he felt his breath stop for a moment as his hands brushed cloth, a rough canvas cloth. His fingers traced a little more and he found the familiar shapes: a candy cane, a gingerbread man, a Christmas tree. Scott looked up as he heard Virgil stop humming.

“Is everything alright?” Scott asked. Virgil looked at him before looking down at the box. There was the Christmas bug out bag that they had so lovingly crafted together. The embroidery was dulled, frayed in some places, and it showed its age, but it was unmistakable. Virgil picked it up and ran his fingers over the fabric, the items that usually found their way to the interior of the bag beneath it: the old thermos, the flashlight, a hat festooned in garland that had seen better days, a compass with cracked glass from a careless move, the ‘Santa ray’, and an old emergency beacon. Scott looked at the bag and let out a soft ‘oh.’ There were a few moments where neither said anything before Virgil smiled.

“What do you say, Scott?” he asked. “Think it’s time to break this out again? A special bag for a special Christmas.” Scott’s brow furrowed.

“Do you think dad will want to see it?” he asked. Virgil thought for a few moments. It wasn’t as if they had anyone that was still young enough to believe in Santa Claus, but that hadn’t exactly been the point of the bag, had it?

“I think he will,” Virgil said. “It was part of what made Christmas so special before, part of what brought our family together no matter what we had to face. I think it’s time to bring it back out again, if only for the sake of a good laugh.” Scott nodded after a moment.

“If you think it’s a good idea…” he said, picking up the Santa ray. He chuckled. “You know the first question he’s going to ask is going to be ‘why don’t we have any new additions to the bag?’” This earned a chuckle from Virgil.

“Well…romance hasn’t exactly been top of our lists,” he said. “No one has really had the opportunity, since the world seems to be falling apart at every turn.” Scott looked as though he wanted to respond, but John’s hologram appeared at the center table.

“Hey John,” Scott greeted, earning a smile from John.

“I just got an update on Dad’s flight. Estimated arrival at the island in two hours,” John said.

“That’s great news!” Virgil said. John nodded.

“Weather patterns look clear so it should be a smooth and uneventful ride,” he said. “I’m just doing some prep to leave five before I will come down. Making sure that EOS’s servers are set for a few days and that sort of thing.”

“I keep telling him I will alert him if anything is in danger of going catastrophically wrong, but he’s anxious,” EOS said matter-of-factly. John rolled his eyes.

“I just want to make sure that when Dad wants to come visit Five, see all of his Thunderbirds, that she is ready for his arrival,” John said. He looked at the bag in Virgil’s hands. “Is that…”

“It is,” Scott said. “We were debating bringing it out for dad’s first Christmas back. What’s your take on it?” John looked pensive for a moment, resting his chin on his hand before he shrugged.

“I think it’s a good idea. So much has changed, I’m sure it would be welcome to have something familiar,” John said.

“That settles it,” Virgil said. “Though…it would be a treat for dad to have another new part of the tradition to look forward to.” John shook his head.

“Sorry, I don’t have a baby in my back pocket that I can pull out,” John said. “That was supposed to be on the two of you.”

“Statistically speaking—”

“Yes, EOS, thank you,” John said. “Statistically speaking I can reproduce.” Virgil laughed as Scott looked up at John’s hologram.

“Hey EOS…”

“Yes, Scott?”

“If you were to put an object into a bug out bag…”

[deceptivemorals]

j@mes bond mourning his wife tracy at the end of 'on her majesty's secret service' is so elijah-coded. he, the dangerous spy with the license to kill, failed to protect her and therefore lost her just because he didn't pay attention for one moment and wanted to savor the joy of being freshly married.

and j@mes saying 'she's having a rest. we'll be going on soon. there's no hurry, you see. we have all the time in the world' is heartbreaking.

the theme song of 'on her majesty's secret service' called 'we have all the time in the world' is later also mingled into 'no time to die' when bond and madeleine are in materna. you can hear it if you know what to look for.

her memory never leaves bond (she was indeed mentioned indirectly and directly in the later films) just like elijah's loved ones never leave him, no matter how often the (bond universes) change.

Movie No. 3 - Seven

03/05/2024

Ya'll.... I am so excited that we are going to watch 'Seven' and analyze the film. I watched it last much with my fam and it was honestly such a jaw dropping film!

detective somerset (the other detectives seem to despise him)

"crime of passion"

detective Millis

"seven days"

dull background with yellow lighting

Film intro - Shows the killer's journals, The killer's preparing his journals, pictures, highlighting, God.

Somerset - organized, neat, especially with his process of getting ready for work (first scene)

Millis - Messy, rushing

Lamps (Yellow light) - common source of light seen

crime scene 1 - Gluttony Victim (hand and legs tied, head on the table, bruises) MONDAY

There's a bit of a rocky relationship between Somerset (senior) and Millis (junior)

Crime scene 2 - (Millis) ELI COULD - defense attorney Greed Victim

TUESDAY (Clue : The wife's face with the blood circled around her eyes.

(Somerset wants to resign)

suspicious plastic pieces found in the Gluttony victim's stomach)

Somerset goes back to the Gluttony crime scene. He's looking in the fridge. Any clues. Plastic pieces on the floor match those of the plastic pieces. Somerset places them and moves the fridge to discover a note from the killer and the word "Gluttony" written on the wall.

Somerset picks up that the killer is killing people based on the 'Seven Deadly Sins'.

Somerset is in the library to learn more about the killer - divine Comedy, Dante's inferno, "seven children slain" (research is given to Mills)

Cut scenes showing Mills looking at the crime scene photographs.

WEDNESDAY

(detective Mills is now assigned to Somerset's office)

Mills' wife helps them bond by inviting Somerset for supper (Thier first names are shared - David Mills, William Somerset)

Greed victim - wording and note (merchant of Venice)

~Religion, Literature and Art~

(clue from the Greed case - upside down painting, fingerprints covered up on the wall with dust, not the victim's fingerprints)

THURSDAY - Prints results (Victor - Sloth victim)

Victor has a criminal record, police thinks it's him (Mills and Somerset are suspicious of it)

(There was a man who was in the building while the SWAT team went in the catch victor)

Air fresheners in Victor's room, pictures of victim, Victor (Sloth victim) is alive.

(Journalist walks in to take pics of Mills and Somerset. Mills chases him away - Since I've watched the movie I know he is the killer)

FRIDAY

Tracy meets Somerset for breakfast. He's the only person she knows who lives here. She's pregnant.

Somerset figures out that the killer has planned everything. He's a mastermind.

'Library Card' - first clue to finding the killer's identity

~ FBi / bureau friend of Somerset's to run a list~

JOHN DOE - (Police found his apartment)

chase scene, they break into his house afterwards

I realized something, while Somerset was trying to understand the killer he read the books in the library, Mills on the other hand looked at the crime scene photos.

In John's apartment, Somerset discovers John's journals whereas Mills discovers the photographs taken by the killer. (Interesting match up)

SATURDAY - Lust case (death victim - Blonde prostitute, man held at gun point)

Questioning - Man held at gun point to kill the prostitute and the person in the glass cage

SUNDAY - Pride victim

Library - John enters the library right after the detectives, finger tips cutoff

black mail plea

Mills and Somerset are driving John to the location where the remaining bodies are.

John asks for the time (because of the horrifying delivery)

Envy case - John Doe (killed by Mills) - Killed Mills' wife

Wrath Victim - David Mills

Sent To Space X Sisters, Investigators & Bffs/Legal x Elon Rewind AI Team Globally:

#wife jaima Tumblr posts - Tumbig.com

https://www.tumbig.com/tag/wife%20jaima

Jma "tumbler wife" is Trolling me for a wife above. 

Jaima Stephenson's email & phone number - Facilities Manager at SpaceX | SignalHire

https://www.signalhire.com/profiles/jaima-stephenson%27s-email/118927601

I'm seeing Jaima's alias is Tracy Thomas when I google her. I wonder if she's still there?

Alive? 

The top picture is Jma (Born in '73) but the one under her is her baby sister Shawna Stephenson listed as Jaima as well at Linked In. (Born 1975.)

It appears there is a mash up of identity at Space x of sisters like for disposable PDs?

Rock stars uses in Army/militia/court bribes too.

Secret service.

Jai Ma Bond went so Bad!):

They're scared they'll go to jail with him now.

Including my 'ol dad & bro/Sunil/cousins etc.

Is your bro involved via Dojo creeps & daytraders on Doje con?

Many of these men are run like cyborgs by their creepy atty wives!

Movement men married celebrity hungry washed out Eastern Euro mainstream peeps.

This is issue.

They Troll and offer nothing back creatively.

Helene told me she met Tony Nader's shot-gun wife from a cruise at hair salon.

She said the woman grilled her about Hollywood connections from when she was a caterer for 3 hours!

Both Stephenson Gals were headhunted to broad.com and Jma became a #Trump fanatic in 2016 too.

She recruited us to Space X! F.

Her brother Clinton bought our house & is a famous day trader too.

They're all worked to death- like Musk family- from children.

Jma had to grow up at 12 and be a dog trainer.

She was a hairdresser on side.

She's Jack of all trades workaholic- Intel likely?

Sad my own friends fucked over my family.

I called Becky Stewart Of Leucadia Acupuncture- who went with me on spacex tour yesterday.

Left message at Leucadia acupuncture- her business.

Fingers crossed! 

I wonder if Shawna stole Jaima's identity? Jma said she was dying basically- and moving to Shawna's in AZ in 2020- then ghosted me. Haydn said I could only talk to her & Wally in cage. He was mad friends' found me. It was an Airforce project what they did to use my data. Creepy as fuck. I'm not a cyborg nor do I want to be one. Gross. 

Clinton is famous for "Tennis Guru" book too. He bought our Fairfield, Iowa 203 West Stone St house with a NY actress Sandra. Then broke up so she kept it a few years. "Kelsey" built big Broadway style center there she used. 

Dr. Jma appears to be the gender specialist - spin Dr.- that fucked up our country and pimped my brother's & tech colleagues on match.com scam with bro Adam steck & goddaughter Ayni Raimondi.

Our friends appear to be in conservatorships because none of them are this creepy.

I can guaranty that.

Adam & Mona Steck haven't called back. Do you want to try him?

I'm worried about him.

It's our friends' kids that are running con- like juvenile Dojo Bernards.

Phil Town's daughter Daniel went into Intel spy stuff too.

Martinez Gals were pimped out by gay step-dad Judge and atty at 15yo! 

Alex's sister Daniel- my twin- seduced Oleg after me! 

Could you send me the Alex diaries back? It's in your email! 

We need to warn our sons' of this nanny scam on leaders.

I was proud of Josh Podoll for standing up to her when she let her skirt rise and tried to seduce him.

Chad Emerson said it was hard when he was dating me & she unbuttoned her blouse too low.

It's disrespectful.

I think he went into Intel too.

All these childhood trolls found me on FB when they were contracted as political hookers for Trump.

My x was swayed too by capiralistic Rewind/Lakshmi gay contracts & became Trump meme cheerleader.

It appears they stole Elon Musk identity with "Wild Elon," Grimes, God scam now. God help us. Xo

AI? Jma wasn't like this.

It's hard to know. No one is whom they seem. Even my husband, bro & dad from Army chains-  but Isha should have choice.

I wonder how many bfs your mom has had trying to survive?

Bro just pimps her from man to man? Capitalistic sex slavery. ):

I think my best vibe is what she once had.

Try to bring that back.

Energise mom.

No mom should be sacrificed like this. She's Grammy. Xo

This is touchy w/ Jma & Ayni. I'm worried about all my friends. They weren't bad people. I feel they were forced into these capitalistic Jihad crimes.

Haydn doesn't complain about servicing transvestites at astronomy department or their disease and the sexual advances from Israelis & tech ballerinas.

He's very generous about the Apple rapes of his time & data that must've started at 13yo.

Did bro's friends ever flush a Geeks head down the Toilette?

We suspected Haydn had that treatment at North Tahoe high.

Kids are intuitive & mean to spies. ):

Elon was also beat & raped in his higher education.

Not for my son. 

Merci.

Peace.

Baraye.

Jai Guru Dev &

Jai Ma,

All Love,

Nitya xo
