More Random Bitching from a Tired Gen Xer
...Am I just missing the pics, or did Emma Myers not show at the Emmys the other night?
I mean, y'all RPF Jemma ppl make a big deal about how they're so close n' all...but it's weird that we would see the little J meet up with the Core 4 the other night at the gala, yet...
Don't gimme the excuse that she wasn't personally nominated, Joy Sunday (BIANCA! BIANCA I LOVE YOU GIRL, I'M TRYNA BRING YOUR CHARACTER SOME JUSTICE 😭) was there and she wasn't personally nominated either.
Loved her classy outfit, too:
Tumblr media
I just love her 😭 I love Bianca so much, the show really needs to not just let her storyline die. But with this whole "I'm promising more action and horror!" thing, I have little faith.
Tumblr media
LOOK AT THEM. I LOVE THEM. I LOVE THEM MORE THAN WENCLAIR.
The Addams Family was comedy and satire. It was never meant to be gory/horrific. Even in the 90s movies, the gore was more comedic than horrific (e.g. the school play where Wednesday and Pugsley sprayed everyone with fake blood...or when Wednesday electrocuted Pugsley (that was off screen)).
Maybe that's just another reason why Ortega irritates me. The way she talks about the Addams Family makes me wonder if she ever even watched any of it before she opened her mouth about wanting to change it. She had to have watched some, since she incorporated OG Wednesday's dance moves (then again, you could find that with a simple Google search).
I dunno, maybe I'm overly sensitive to the negative stereotypes of 'goth' or 'weird' people (which is what they are, they're weird, not necessarily all goth) being associated with horror and violence, and that's what ticks me off. There's far too much violent shit in the world, why must it permeate our entertainment so much? Put out something that makes us laugh and has heart, and smack it up with a little gore. That's all we really need. Fandom can do the gore thing for ya, bb (and trust, fandom can do horror and gore better than these shitty Mummy writers). Don't Sabrinafy this IP. I will be so painfully disappointed if that happens that I'll probably disregard an S2 that has too much of a dark tone change from S1.
I will say one thing, as an honest fic writer/writer: I wouldn't put it past the writers to make Donovan a big part of the problem. Without any goggles on, I can say that Sheriff Galpin is anti-outcast (despite playing cozy with his Addams in canon, until the beginning of Episode 8). He's actually the one who put it into Wednesday's head that "Maybe it was one of your classmates." at the beginning of Episode 2 when he knew full well that there was a possibility of Tyler being the same kind of monster that his mother was.
My (non-goggled) hypothesis is that Sheriff Galpin suspected that the murders were Hyde related from the beginning because he most certainly had to have seen something similar happening when Francie was turning and killing. And McShane's expression once the Hyde photo had developed on its page was one of confirmation, rather than surprise or fear. I think it was right at that moment that Galpin knew it was Tyler.
Lots of crap that Wednesday comes up with happens to be wrong, like when she opens her mouth in front of Weems with "How long have you known...when I gave you that claw from the cave, did you already know?"
Yes woman, because you suck at looking through photos or looking at a photo that the man compared Xavier's drawing to the second you gave it to him.
But I digress, I was talking about Donovan.
Watch the writers make him into some kind of Goodmen-like douchebag, since he doesn't like outcasts. I'm going to hate that if that happens, because deep down we know he doesn't totally despise outcasts, having married one and--despite openly grumbling about them to Noble--he was open to working with one...the daughter of his enemy, no less. (Though the OG script has him calling Francie a liar, so maybe she didn't tell him.)
Bleh. What was I talking about? Ah yeah, Emma Myers being absent for Jenna's loss. Ah whatever...at least Bee was there. Afterburn Bianca will get her justice, hopefully.

The Originals 1x09-1x16 Review
So I watched TVD during quarantine last year, and even though I swore to never watch another Julie Plec show again, I’m giving TO a chance! I thought I’d share my thoughts, let people know whether Plec has disappointed me again or how much I love Rebekah Mikaelson. You can also find my 1x02-1x08 review on my blog. 
1x09
No one looks happy to be at Klaus’s dinner lmaoo 
I knew the waiters would be the food…I hate that it looks so cool 
Ooh so Marcel picked up the coin for a reason!! I should’ve known that it was part of a bigger plan
KLAUS IS GOING TO KILL ALL THE WEREWOLVES?! These people really get put through the ringer 
So who’s still in the coffins?? Why bother keeping them around if Kol and Finn are dead?? (Even if they do come back, I still don’t see the logic)
I admire Cami’s resourcefulness, she’s definitely good at working around Klaus’s compulsion
Klaus, don’t call Davina an artist…she can’t draw
Clearly I underestimated the humans!! That’s my bad lol
WOAH MARCEL IS DONE WITH DIPLOMACY, GOING IN FOR THE KILL
Davina is really not intimidating at all 
Not sure what Hayley’s plan is for her, Davina and Josh…maybe they want to play scrabble or bake beignets 
FATHER KIERAN, YOU’RE JUST GOING TO LEAVE CAMI WHEN SHE’S CLEARLY DISTRAUGHT?!
I hope that human general gets killed first 
Looks like my wish came true!
A co-leadership between Klaus and Marcel? I can’t see this ending well 
Klaus and Hayley’s relationship is definitely getting interesting, I like their dynamic
Clearly Josh is the only person who isn’t trying to use Davina 
And now Davina’s realized that she’s been played by Marcel…
Klamille is really drawing me in….still, I think she should leave
Oh yeah, Hayley definitely wants a kiss from Elijah  
So…I guess Tyler just dipped?
AWW KLAUS FORGAVE ELIJAH
1X10
REBEKAH IN TIME PERIOD CLOTHING…I LOVE
Ok, Rebekah’s French was at least better than Klaus’s counting
OF COURSE ELIJAH WOULD WALK IN WHEN HAYLEY’S BASICALLY WEARING A WEDDING DRESS 
Surely Marcel or Klaus could easily listen in on Rebekah and Hayley’s conversation?? 
My crackship partnering up together…I like it
FINALLY we’re checking back in on the witches, wtf have they been doing this whole time
DIGGING UP CELESTE’S GRAVE?! Very cruel and disrespectful
Tim’s back! He’s probably gonna suffer or maybe die
OH COME ON, SURELY THOSE VAMPIRES HEARD HAYLEY DIDN’T GO UPSTAIRS
NOW I’M DEFINITELY UP FOR A REBEKAH AND DAVINA TEAMUP, GIVE IT TO ME
This is a really smart move, showing Davina the garden and how Marcel can be cruel 
Yup, makes sense that Klaus had an insurance for whether Davina lives or dies 
Father Kieran, really?! Sean’s death is really not that complicated
Clearly Elijah and Marcel should be the ones running NOLA
Danielle Campbell is a pretty good actress, I definitely felt her pain when Tim died
Wow, those are supremely terrible drawings…you think that evil would look a lot nicer 
Ah yes, I’m sure the whole world will totally believe that vampires exist, Cami
Did not expect Rebekah to be talking to Thierry 
I’M TOTALLY UP FOR REBEKAH MANAGING AN EMPIRE
Wow, so Davina actually drew something somewhat good
1x11
Wow Davina went right in with attacking Marcel
“Poisoning [Davina’s] one true love” well this isn’t going to age well
ELIJAH LOOKS SO DISAPPOINTED ABOUT HAYLEY FINDING CELESTE’S GRAVE, I really can’t blame him
Hayley is really just being shunted off to the sidelines 
MARCEL, COME ON, IM SORRY BB BUT I THINK THE HARVEST RITUAL HAS TO BE FINISHED
Looks like we’re entering the water stage… 
I’m glad that Marcel is learning from his mistakes
ESTHER’S BONES ARE BEING CONSECRATED, GUESSED IT AS SOON AS ELIJAH SAID THERE’S ANOTHER WITCH 
I like that quote, “kill a demon today, meet the devil tomorrow”
Davina’s eyebrows look so nice
Poor Davina, quite a brutal death 
I feel for Sophie Deveraux too, all alone
CMD is giving a great performance!! I ACTUALLY TEARED UP A LITTLE
HAYLIJAH, JUST KISS…GREAT, THEY DIDN’T AND NOW IM ANNOYED 
Yeah, you definitely don’t give Rebekah enough credit, Klaus 
LOOKS LIKE WE GOT SOME NEW WITCHES BACK FROM THE DEAD
SABINE HAS BEEN CELESTE FOR A YEAR WHATT, WHY DIDN’T I SEE IT COMING
1x12
Whatever this witchy ritual is, it looks fun
Elijah in this 1920s suit…AND THE GELLED HAIR…JULIE IS REALLY KILLING ME HERE
Oh come on, Klaus, let Marcel grieve Davina
Ofc my girl Rebekah is being smart about the witches, this is why I love her 
Elijah, Klaus is doing THE BARE MINIMUM. I’m sorry but it’s true, it’s been 1000 years, it’s not a bad thing to be harder on him 
WHAT’S HAPPENING TO MY GIRL BEKAH
I literally forgot about Hayley…
THE REASON FOR HAYLEY AND ELIJAH NOT HANGING OUT SOUNDS SO CHILDISH LOLL 
Marcel’s right, Klaus is pretty indestructible, Cami won’t even make a dent 
REBEKAH IN A 1920s DRESS…LITERALLY SO GORGEOUS 
Marcel looks so cute with his clean-shaven, soldier look 
FINALLY Elijah found Rebekah 
Ngl, I like the father-son references about Klaus and Marcel…they’re kind of heartwarming
So what if you were to try to stomp on a candle that’s involved in a spell? Would it work or would you just bounce right off it?  
Klaus looks kinda jealous of Cami and Marcel….I like it
MARCEL BROUGHT TUNDE INTO TOWN FOR REBEKAH WHATTT
Oh Klaus…really, take a leadership course or something 
OH SHIT, TUNDE MADE IT TO THE GARDEN 
OOOH, I THOUGHT CELESTE WAS THE FINAL OFFERING BUT IT’S ACTUALLY TUNDE…VERY EXCITING
1x13
OMG, IS MONIQUE ALIVE?!
I love that both Marcel and Klaus were watching Cami
Marcel has great sass too, Marbekah is clearly a perfect match
Great, Father Kieran’s been hexed too…this man cannot catch a break
Surely Elijah suspects that Sabine is Celeste? He should know her characteristics and mannerisms 
The witches are putting A LOT of faith in Cami, what if she ends up handing over the blade?  
WOW, I LITERALLY PREDICTED IT…unless it’s a fake
I SEE JACKSON 
THE GUY WALKING IN NAKED ON REBEKAH IM LAUGHING
MONIQUE’S EYES ARE FREAKING ME OUT, MAYBE SHE’S BEING CREEPY ON PURPOSE
YAYY REBEKAH’S HAVING FUN DANCING AWW  
I’m happy that these werewolves get to have fun, they deserve it
The music coming in…they’re already setting up the Hayley x Jackson ship
The baby bump is so confusing, I feel like it’s been inconsistent
OH YES ELIJAH FIGURED IT OUT ABOUT CELESTE
Oh no, Elijah’s been hexed
I love that all this shit is going on and Klaus is just hanging out in a church with Cami and Father Kieran
Loved? I would not venture as far as to say that Elijah loves Hayley
SOPHIE STABBED KLAUS HOLY SHIT
Could the werewolves really have taken the vampires?? We’ve already established that vampires are stronger 
I’m sorry, this whole arranged marriage thing is not as romantic as they’re making it out to be 
WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED THAT REBEKAH HAS BEEN PLAYED YET AGAIN BY A MAN
There’s something fitting about an old plantation burning in a fire
I actually liked Sophie, she tried so hard to get Monique back and all so she could die… 
The witches are honestly horrible, Bonnie Bennett supremacy
1x14
My poor Rebekah going through all this hardship
Rebekah looks amazing as a nurse, she looks good in everything
Elijah unbuttoning his shirt, I approve 
Don’t be afraid to examine him too closely, Hayley…I know I would
1920s Marbekah are definitely cute 
I’m loving this recovering Klaus look  
I’m LIVING for this Elijah and Marcel team up!!! 
MY BABY BEKS IS GETTING BEAT DOWN, SOMEBODY SAVE HER
I’m guessing Clara was that friend of Genevieve’s, the other nurse 
I KNEW IT, I WAS RIGHT ABOUT CLARA 
I do feel bad for Klaus, a betrayal like that….even if Klaus has treated Rebekah badly, it’s clear that calling Mikael is next level
THE FAMOUS REBEKAH SCREAM 
I admit, Celeste’s plan is pretty smart in unravelling the Mikaelson family
Ok, that’s a pretty terrible way for Genevieve and “Clara” to die
Klaus has such nice cheekbones
YEAHH HAYLEY HELPING OUT HER FAMILY 
WHEN WILL REBEKAH BE HAPPY AGAIN CMONNN 
Damn this klebekah chemistry
Elijah once again proving why he’s my favourite Mikaelson man
1x15
YAY we’re back in a flashback 
These Mikaelson men look so hot in these 1920s outfits
Well, Elijah’s right about Cami being the best person to greet Klaus
HELL YEAH, FINALLY WE SEE HAYLEY AND THE WOLVES IN ACTION
Idk who plays Sabine/Celeste but she’s doing a great job
Oh Rebekah…by bringing Mikael to town, you basically ruined your own happiness… 
Mikael looks very classy in his 1920s outfit 
Not a great plan if Klaus has already sniffed out what Rebekah and Marcel plan to do
That grimoire page looked so ratty…the text barely looked legible, how can Monique read the instructions
I find it ironic that Mikael calls Klaus an abomination, even though the witches say the same about vampires
That is literally so awkward, Haylijah’s having their moment and Celeste is just hanging out beside them  
Why is Hayley walking away? Where’s she going? 
Celeste is VERY cunning, her plans are top notch 
Damn, Joe’s acting…Klaus’s face when Mikael came over, like he could sense him  
Wow, Mikael is PURE EVIL
Oh damn, Celeste is dead 
SHITT, MONIQUE AND ELIJAH OUTSMARTED CELESTE, DID NOT SEE THAT COMING, I FORGOT ABOUT MONIQUE 
The eyes are less creepy now that I know Monique’s motives 
DAVINA’S BACK!!! 
Klaus found Rebekah…looks like we’re about to get a showdown
1x16
Little Rebekah and Klaus are so adorable
Klaus’s amber eyes and black veins are so fkn cool 
Father Kieran is right, Klaus will be a lot less merciless to Marcel 
I love that Klaus is posing on a grave and doing a mock trial 
REBEKAH COMING IN WITH SOME VALID AND HURTFUL POINTS
ELIJAH HAS BOTH WEAPONS OH DAMN
Klaus can be mad, I get that, but he played a part in bringing Mikael to town. He’d constantly kill Rebekah’s suitors, mistreat her, judge her way too often, everyone reaches a breaking point 
Davina’s right, she’s back to being used and if anything she’s in more danger now than before
Klaus, don’t insult Elijah’s suits. They’re tasteful, and not everyone can pull it off
FANTASTIC. ELIJAH’S BEEN STABBED BY THE TUNDE BLADE. MY FAVES ARE SUFFERING
SO KLAUS BASICALLY PUSHES REBEKAH TO ADMIT SHE WANTED HIM DEAD, AND THEN HE’S SAD WHEN SHE DOES. WHAT DID U EXPECT 
THANK GOD Rebekah isn’t dead 
Oh klebekah…I can see the chemistry but I don’t want to  
CLAIRE AND JOE’S ACTING IS ON POINT
Where is Hayley?? I’ve forgotten about her
Rebekah and Elijah’s relationship is too precious  
I have a bad feeling about this Marcel and Klaus meeting
ELIJAH THROWING MARCEL AND EXILING HIM, DEFINITELY DIDN’T EXPECT THAT
Marcel seems to be complying…? I’m sure he won’t though
Klaus needs to go feel the baby kick or read some pregnancy books, de-stress or something 
GODDAMNIT, WHY CAN’T MARCEL JUST GO WITH REBEKAH…I get why he can’t leave, but still
MY CRACKSHIP SAYING GOODBYE, and finally we know where Hayley is 
Auntie Bex is such a cute name aww
You’d think that Klaus would be wondering about Hayley by now
Goodbye Rebekah, I’m gonna miss you
1x17-1x22 coming soon! Please, DO NOT POST SPOILERS OR HATE COMMENTS. I don’t expect people to agree with my opinions, but being rude is not going to get me to change mine. I haven’t seen the show before, my opinions are probably going to change over time as I keep watching. If you want longer notes on any of the episodes, please ask or message me, I’d be happy to share them.

MAG 178
Ooh back in Meatville™️
I am once again asking Basira to be nice to Jon
Martin reminding them to treat all the victims as people!!! Good for u bb I love u
“Why are they queuing?” “It’s a factory of the flesh. Use your imagination.” “...no. No, I don’t think I will” yeah good call babe
“I hate all of these loose ends... we’ll just have to tie them all up in one go, hmm? Around Elias’s neck.” MARTIN KARTIN BLACKWOOD TGE FLIP FROM ABSOLUTE COMPASSION TO MURDEROUS ANTI ELIAS THOUGHTS FUCKING STELLAR ILY BABY
“Tool cupboard. Safe enough place to wait.” “Fine.” *door opens* “Nope.” Martin you’re a fucking gem
“Could be worse, at least they’re clean” Jon you’re my favorite person in the whole wide world you fucking dork
Snarky Jon is my favorite Jon
Oh the concept of your “processing” being inevitable but the fear of it being pointless, of not being useful is rly interesting
The contract thing is very sign your life away I love it when Jonny says “fuck capitalism”
Yknow I wasn’t sure why bureaucracy was part of the flesh but it actually makes a lot of sense- the flesh is all about the fear that you’re just meat, and the uncaring bureaucracy goes a long way towards that depersonalization
Ohhh and that gives the whole “your pain is inevitable but it could be worse- it could be useless, pointless” thing a new level bc that’s what capitalism’s all about- accept your suffering, even be proud of it, bc you’re useful like this
God fuck capitalism man
Oof and the branding Jonny’s rly coming for capitalism’s dehumanizing “eat you up and spit you out” process w no qualifications or anything huh
“At last, the prospect of seeing what might happen if he runs from the line seems worth it to Tyler, but the realization sets in that it is far, far too late for that” god the whole idea of people’s fear of stepping out of line bc what if that’s even worse finally being overcome by the understanding that it couldn’t be worse than this but it’s too late to leave and you’ve missed your chance... shit man
“He could refuse. A final, petty act of rebellion against a system it feels like he has run through a hundred times. But what would be the point of that? It won’t save him. A wasted pile of discarded tissue is all that would be left. Is it not better, at least, to be useful?” God the absolute raw lines in this one fuck man I really get how you can expand very real societal systems into overwhelming cosmic horror through this it’s amazing and also oh my god
Amazing job Jonny
Also alex on the soundscaping! I’m having a Bad Time
Martin defending Jon to Basira!!! I’m soft
Martin continuing to treat the victims as people I love my boy
“Recognize her.” “...no. I don’t think I do” “that wasn’t a question” Jon forcing Basira to confront daisy’s police brutality!! Good job hun!! Acab!!!
“Someone has died! Show some respect! Or don’t you care?” get her Martin
“Daisy’s the only person I could ever rely on, and she... she did things, terrible things, and I... I refused to see it, or, said it was my duty, or whatever. I don’t know.”
THE BREAKDOWN OF THE SEIGE MENTALITY FUCK YEAH DUDE
“I wanted to help people, you know? When I first joined. Protect people. But then I saw what some of those same people were capable of, and... something changed. I wanted to hurt them, the ones that deserved it, and it... it felt good. It felt righteous. I thought I could feel the line though. I really did. Eventually, though, it was too much... I was going to quit. I couldn't take what I saw myself becoming. But... then I got sectioned, and suddenly... suddenly it turned out there were real monsters out there, and, well, that just made the power feel better. So things kept slipping. But Daisy was always there for me.” “All those innocent people...” “Were they? Innocent?” “Some. And if not? What crime warrants what was done to them?” 👏👏👏👏
“She was trying to be better” “she was. But she never asked me to forgive her.” “Forgive her?” “I’ve been scared, terrified for my life so many times these last few years. But I’ve never, not once, felt so horribly, abjectly, powerless as when she took me into that forest to kill me. I’ll never forget it.” Jon having the police brutality he faced as the most traumatic event of his life when he’s been so thoroughly traumatized in so many ways really drives that point home god
“Would you have forgiven her?” “No. But she never asked me. She knew she had no right.”
I’m very torn bc while I do totally get why a lot of people hate daisy and it’s absolutely fair I’m still sad that practically the only person who was really there for Jon in season four isn’t gonna be able to come back. I just want my boy to have a support network man
“No one gets what they deserve. Not in this place. They just get whatever hurts them the most. Even me.” I AM CONCERNED

Penny Tyler Intro
BASICS
★ BIRTH DATE / 1 December, 1955 (i think LMAO) ★ BLOOD STATUS / Half-blood ★ PRONOUNS & IDENTITY / she/her; cis female ★ FACECLAIM / Tristin Mays
ACADEMICS & ROOMING
★ PRIMARY SCHOOL / London School of Witchcraft, class of 1974 ★ ACADEMIC PURSUITS / Pre-Auror ★ HOUSE & YEAR / Gryffindor, class of 77
( alcohol abuse cw, abuse cw )
POINTS OF INTEREST
★ Penelope was happy being poor, alone, and without any ounce of weight to her name. She was alright with being “Penny Tyler” the girl with a muggle father who left when she was six, a borderline alcoholic witch for a mother who tried her best to give Penny everything she needed to be successful in life, and one or two friends at London School who were there when she needed them, but never suffocated her. She was okay being the girl that no one knew existed, or cared about if they did. In fact, she almost loved that fact. She didn’t have to talk in class, she didn’t need to act like a good friend or pretend that she cared about other people. Everything seemed, for once, to be going alright. Then, of course, her mom fell in love (or so she claimed).
★ Augustine Nott came from a long line of pureblood wizards, and with that came a lot of gold and a big reputation, one that her mother was more than happy to become a part of. Parties every weekend and fancy gifts delivered to their dilapidated doorstep; those were the things that Mrs. Tyler lived for, and suddenly they were all hers. The wedding was fast, unexpected, and huge -- married in June of 1974. The gossip that followed it was even bigger. Penny’s mother was nothing to the pureblood family that Augustine came from; she was trash, and by association so was Penny. Nevermind that she didn’t want to live in his lavish house with his House Elf and seven bedrooms and four and a half baths. She was her mother’s daughter, and she was going to be known for it. She had a name to uphold now, there were people (her peers) that she had to socialize with and parties she had to attend, and no matter how much she wished that going to Hogwarts for her 1st year would change that, she found out it only got worse.  
★ Silas Nott entered the world at only 6lbs 6oz a year after the wedding. Yet the tiniest of things, make the largest impacts. The maddening part about it all was, Penny never wanted any part of it, yet it was clear, when it came to her new baby brother, she was the person who cared the most. And being away at Hogwarts, away from him, and knowing the care that he was in (trust her, she’d grown up with Vera Tyler as a mother herself), only added to the stress. It led to outbursts in lessons, physical altercations with other students in the corridors, and a foul mouth on the quidditch pitch. Penny was kicked from the quidditch team -- one she even captained as a Seeker. But that was the only consequence she ever faced among all the incidents in her years at Hogwarts. She hated the privilege her name brought, but at least she didn’t have to kiss away her dreams of being an Auror. Penny’s currently in her last year of the Auror Academy. And while her dreams are soon to come true, she has more goals now. In her heart, she knows the influence Silas was under could forever change him. Her endgame was to have custody of him. No matter what it took.
★ It was undeniable that Penny took after her mother, the way she fell quick, hard, and deep for a wizard. Ten years her senior, Andrew Porter worked tirelessly as a well trained Hit Wizard. They’d met as soon as Penny entered the academy. It even being on her very first day had her thinking, perhaps fate did exist, and they weren’t all aimlessly wandering about. They were engaged only three months later, with a rushed wedding following everything else. But to Penny, this wasn’t rushing. This was love and why would she wait for love? But this romance was a whirlwind for a reason. The first year -- marital bliss. Nothing but surprise dates, apartment shopping, and they even got a dog together. The second year, things began to fizzle out. But, that’s what Penny had expected. That’s what she’d been taught her whole life, watching her mother go through men. The excitement wore off as you entered the “normal stage”. But what about arguing every week, sleeping in different beds, and deciding to work overtime was normal?
★ She’d learned he’d lied about a few things since meeting -- all to make himself seem... superior. Did this man have a God complex? Was this relationship only feeding his ego? At times, it’s all it felt like, when she wasn’t being made to feel crazy. There was nothing but a sense of false security and though Penny did not quit a thing in her life, she had to escape. This was not setting any better example for Silas, after all. And wasn’t her baby brother the priority in her life? Penny had wasted so much of herself admiring this man, for nothing in return. He hadn’t helped build up Penny’s self-love, not once, and it was as soon as she realized that, did she file for divorce finally. This was in November of 1979 and while the divorce isn’t yet finalized, Penny is out of their house and has avoided all contact with him since. Recently, she’s couch surfing with her dog as she searches for a new place to live and trying to find a sense of purpose again.

The hotel was cheap, mostly because they wanted to save money, but also because it was the only hotel close enough to where they were going to be situated. Once the daybreak hit, the boys were up and ready. By 7 am they were approaching the old farmhouse and pulling into the driveway like last time.
☠  ̷͔͕̚T̶̢̃̽h̸̨͋͐e̵̛̞͊ ̶̗̈́̓ḓ̶͈̊e̴͆́ͅm̷͇̀͂o̶̧͓͛̕n̷͉̏̿ ̶͍͎͌š̵͕͔ą̷̜̉t̶͎̏ ̶͖͒o̵̩͗͝n̶̩͐ ̵̞͙̽͆t̷̩̊̚h̴͇͕͝͝ë̶̠̳ ̴̬̃͝ͅr̸̹̉͂ͅo̴̥̮̽́o̵̫̭͆́f̴̧̊̏t̷̙̤͐̍o̵̢̓p̵͙͚̓̚ ̵̣̠̈́̇n̴̞̓̏õ̶̩̑t̸̬̫̎ ̷̢̻̄̈t̶͖͔͆ȍ̵̪̮o̶̹̙͌ ̵͈̱̅h̸͓̘͝ả̷̠̝͂p̸̮̂̿p̸̜̆y̷̝͚͛̾ ̴̣́t̸̝͆ȟ̴̖͉a̷̳̰̐͝t̷̥̥̽̏ ̶͚͌͂t̴̼͝ḣ̴͉͓é̸̪͆s̴̓͝ͅͅe̴͛̈͜ ̷̘̳́̂b̴̟̦̈ủ̸̬̟ȓ̵̦͆d̵̢̤́̉ȩ̷̾́n̵̰̎s̴͈̈ ̸̠̈h̵͙͉͒̓a̶̼̾̈́ͅv̵̛̺̺e̸͍̓͛ ̴̻͗̍r̵̮̜͌ḛ̵͖͆̚ẗ̷̤u̴̼̿͘r̴̙͓͆͋n̶͓̒̎ë̴̻̫́̇ḑ̸̆͊ ̷̬̼̋́ţ̴̧̋ò̸͕͜ ̸̨̣͆͋h̴̛̲̫i̵̜͊ŝ̸͙́ ̷͇̠̉ẗ̷̗́h̴̪̓r̷̺̺͘e̶̝̟͌s̴͍̭̀h̵̺̕ő̵̹̾l̷̮͛̇d̵̘̣͗.̸̗̽.̶̞̻͐.̸̴͍̗̤̆̾͂̌ ̷̵̖̹̜͌͊̈☠ ⛧
The weather, and ultimately the atmosphere was considerably darker than yesterday, and though the boys would never admit it to each other, none of them slept very well. That didn’t stop Marcel from quickly getting out as much equipment as he could carry and taking it back to the tent they had set up yesterday. “Aw- jesus Tyler! You didn’t zip the door! There’s probably a shit ton of mosquitos in there now…” He complained, walking into the open tent and setting the heavy things he carried in on the table that they didn’t want to take with them. He then looked around. Yeah.. there were a few mosquitos flying around. Of course they didn’t bring bug spray either, fuck.
Tyler walks into the tent, two CPU boxes tucked in his strong arms, (brian is coming behind him with the monitors), and he throws open the already open zip up door. “What’s up mosquito bitches? Daddy’s home!” He joked nonchalantly, setting the machines on the table as well.
“Shuddup will ye? Jesus christ, a priest is gonna be here soon-” Brian starts, then get interuppted by the american who does not give a fuck. “And i’ll make him call me daddy, too.” Brian set down the monitors and nearly had a stroke fit of laughter. “Oh F’eck off.”
Evan took the last three bags of equipment from the back of the SUV, taking his time getting up the hill and to their tent. He can hear someone- something near. It whispers in his ear and tells him to run. Get out. Leave. Of course it sends a shiver down his spine and a chill deep into his bones, but he continues up the hill and tries to make out the difference between male and female in the voice he heard. It was deeper toned, a bit raspy and sad. Evan concludes male as a dark sad atmosphere starts clinging onto him. Evan sets the bags up where Tyler and Marcel want them. “When did you say he was gonna get here, Brian?”
Brian was swatting a few mosquitos out of the air when Evan asked about David. “Well, he said he’d be here probably by noon or something in his texts-” There was a loud groan from Tyler. “Are you serious? Noon? And the dude expects us not to go in until he gets here? We need to investigate.” 
“I know, I know, Tyler, Ya don’t think i’m just as pissed as you? I just want to be safe about this. You don’t-” 
“Get it?” Tyler responded, salt in his tone that cuts deep into Brian’s words. “Then help us understand. How dangerous is it really? It’s just a buncha dead guys-”
“It is not just a bunch of dead guys- are ye fockin’ stupid? Tyler, there is a demon in that house. A powerful demon who takes control of people. Controls their thoughts, how they act. Makes them do unspeakable things, tyler! You can’t just fuck with something you can’t see.”
This pisses Tyler off more, makes him give Brian the camera angrily. “Then you go in there and record with Evan. We need footage. When the priest starts to show up I’ll call you and tell you to get out of there.”
“Wh- But David said ta-” Evan took Brian by the arm and started to walk out with thi, “Ignore him, Brian. Let’s just see what we can find.”
Brian had a terrible feeling about this, but against Evan’s grip, he just complies and walks with him to the building. When they get to the front of the  building, Evan takes the camera from Brian and starts recording himself. “Alright guys, we’ve got a priest on his way, a good old friend of Brian’s by the name of David Nagles. We’re just going to go inside to see if we can find anything else before this guy shows up. Tyler and Marcel are getting everything ready to watch us from inside out base.. Alright. Let's head in one more time.” He paused the camera feed and looked to Brian, who didn’t seem too happy to be here so soon. “Hey.. It’ll be fine. You still have that holy water right?” 
Silently steaming, Brian pulls the half empty bottle, about the length of his forefinger and thickness of his thumb. He pops the cork and hands it to Evan, who, though pained at the look on his buddy’s face, applies it to the rim of his ears as Brian did before, then gives it back to its owner. The canadian sighs, looks towards the house, and then starts stepping closer. 
“Wait-!” Brian suddenly calls, grabbing Evan by the shoulder and holding him back mid-stride. “There’s someone right here-” He steps in front of the confused Evan, facing a tall shadow of a man, a crying man, multiple stab wounds carved into his chest, still bleeding. As Brian approaches the spirit, it seems to flinch back, then puff out its chest and stand taller over the lad of 6’0, mouthing curses and angry words. From the back, Evan speaks, a feeling of nausea and dizziness hitting him in the chest as he holds the camera out to see  “He-... He’s saying to leave. He wants us out, and he wants us out now.” 
“Yeah he doesn’t look too happy… Ask him his name.” 
Evan takes a deep breath and steps forward, listening carefully as words float to his ears. “Hey.. It’s alright, man. I know some bad shit happened but … What’s your name?” 
The spirit-shadow stopped yelling at them, went quiet and stared at Evan dead in the eyes, even if the living man couldn’t see him. The words he uttered sounded muffled, quieter, it sounded like he was… under water.
“J...Jon.” 
“Jon?” Evan repeated for himself and the camera. “Jon…” He looked up at where brian was looking, taking his eyes from the screen. God.. if only he could just .. see it. Then he caught the whisper of something.. “Assholes…”
ARE YOU SERIOUS-
“Why you little-” Evan started, but before he could finish his thought, Brian interrupted with a sigh. “He’s gone… Alright, let’s head inside-” As he picked up his foot to head back inside the house, putting on his big boy pants and gaining the courage one step at a time, he was jolted by the sound of a car horn. His heart racing a million miles a minute as he turned around to see who the hell is honking, he hears a distinct irish yelling of anger, and a phone call. He inhales slowly through his nose, closing his eyes in frustration and exhaling before answering the call. Before Tyler can speak or even say he’s sorry, Brian snaps. “I know he’s fockin’ here, jackass.” Then he hangs up and walks past Evan, who is staring, to the small black rented caddy. 
“The hell did I tell ye about goin’ in before I got here, ya twit? I told you- I told you specifically, Don’t go in!” He yelled loudly as he parked. Brian was beyond caring. When David pulled in next to their car rather violently, he parked the car and got out, still heated. “You-!” He starts to go off again, but Brian just holds up his hand. “Oh shove it, I’m not a goddamn baby. I was lookin’ round the porch so I wasn’t jus’ wastin’ my damn time waitin’ f’er y’er ass ta show up-”
As much as watching two Irishmen bicker is amusing, Evan stepped towards them and sighed, knowing they’d have to cut that from the video. “We didn’t go in, I swear. Thank you for coming, Father.” He wasn’t really religious, but he was respectful, and hated actual conflict that wasn’t a joke. The tall man sighed through his nose in response and turned from his friend, to the man he didn’t know. Right… be professional, Daithi. “Thank you, It’s nice to meet you, mister..?”
“Evan.” The canadian smiled, automatically reaching out his hand to shake the priest’s.
“David.” The man replied, replicating that contagious smile.
“Well, you might as well come meet the rest of our team, then we should really get started.”
~STAY TUNED FOR PART 6~

BBS Anon Tumblr AUs
Okay, so I got a little creative last night because I had this cute idea, but then it splintered into a TON of ideas and I honestly just don’t have time to write them all, so I figured what I could do is give you all of the headcanons that I have for the couples in order to help flush the idea out of my mind. So please, enjoy these silly headcanons, and let me know what you think!! <3
AU PREMISE FOR ALL STORIES: One boy loves/likes/hates/has some feelings toward the other boy, so they make an anon Tumblr and send them an ask that leads to them talking. 
Also the boys are all in college. Cause yeah...>.>
H2O Vanoss: Evan is a popular music blog “Vanoss”, Jonathan is the shy follower who sends in an unusually sweet message on New Years Eve as his New Years resolution (Luke challenges him to do something he’s wanted to do forever, and Jonathan tell him he’s going to confess to his crush but won’t tell him who it is). Jonathan has been friends with Evan for five years, and in love with Evan for two years after hearing him perform a self-written song during a charity event for the school. He intended for this to be his only ask, so he kind put a lot of feelings into it and wrote it as a submission (as Tumblr only allows 500 characters). Also, randomly reblogs a cute picture of Evan fanart. After this he goes to sleep, he wakes up to a bunch of alerts saying that “Vanoss” will be doing a surprise performance that afternoon in the school common area. Jonathan goes, wanting to see his performance (as he’s gone to all of them, being Evan’s “Good luck charm”) and hangs in the back while texting Evan a stupid good luck thing. He kinda gets surprised Evan speaks to the crowd (as he never does), and he’s kinda obviously nervous but in THE cutest way possible. Jonathan is kinda smitten by this before Evan says ‘this goes out to someone who kind of made my night, and uh… I hope they’re here listening to this. Thanks for the letter, Delirious.’ Jonathan is like ‘...WHAT’ in his head and Evan sings this really sweet/cute song. Everyone loves it, and it’s obvious that people are snapchatting it and taping it, all with the same question: Who is Delirious?! After the song, Evan gives a little smile and is like ‘If you’re here, lemme know if you like it or something, Del.’ Cue Del kinda panicking and first thought is ‘must deactivate the tumblr and get rid of all of the evidence’ but as he’s going on his tumblr, but when he goes home, he’s got +99 notifications, all of them tagging him in the video and being like ‘Respond!’ He also gets like 200 more followers (“I DON’T EVEN USE THIS BLOG”) and people sending him asks about who he is. He does kinda make a post about himself saying he goes to the school (as some people were calling him a creep/saying he’s not real) but he can’t say who he is. Cue the craziness that is Jonathan being Evan’s friend and “trying to help him” find out who Delirious is, all while trying to keep his own feelings hidden because he’s re-falling in love with Evan through their chats on Tumblr.
Okay, this one is 99% going to be written. >.> I love it too much not to.
OhmToonz: “Ohmwrecker” is a Tumblr writer, who has gotten popularity for a web-book he is doing. Luke is a friend of Ryan’s and one of the only people who knows he is the Ohmwrecker. During a moment of writer’s block, Ryan asks for people to send him motivation asks to get him back on track. Luke, bored and feelin’ some kind of way because his best friend is too busy writing his story to pay attention to him, sends a flirty anon to get Ryan to blush and then log off of Tumblr. Ryan, however, gets a little bit of courage, and ends up flirting back with ‘ Toonzy’ as the anon has labeled himself. Luke is kinda impressed with his friend, and starts sending stupid one-liners and little flirty messages that imply that he actually knows Ryan, not just ‘Ohmwrecker’. This is kinda risky for Ryan, who has kept his identity a secret from the other kids on campus. But Ryan is really into this guy, who shifts onto messenger as ‘Cartoonz’ and maybe there’s a lot of sexual stuff that happens. >.> But as they kinda heat up, Luke slips that Ryan knows him, too, and now Ryan is like ‘wait, what?? We’re friends?!’ except Luke doesn’t remember telling Ryan this because he’s drunk. Now, Ryan is trying to figure out who Cartoonz is without letting Cartoonz know that he knows that Cartoonz knows him. It’s a hot mess.
TerrorMoo: Brian is a Tumblr artist, and Brock has been sending him anon messages for a while about his art. The two of them are cordial, living in the same dormintory, and bumping into each other late at night in the community room (Brock stays up late to finish papers and Brian says he draws best at 2am). Finally one day, Brock bites the bullet and makes a tumblr, wherein one night he reblogs all of Brian’s art and leaves really sweet tags on each one. Brock also does little analysis for each one, as Brian had earlier talked about possibly stopping his career in art in order to pursue a ‘more stable job’. This ends up getting a lot of activity regarding Brian’s work, and Brian takes notice of the like, 30 reblogs/comments “Moo-Snuckle” left on his work. Brian now is on the hunt to figure out who this mystery man is, and Brock is desperate to hide the truth, thinking that Brian will realize that he’s in love with him. Also can’t stop commenting/reblogging each of Brian’s new pictures, because Brian has openly said that ‘Moo’ is inspiring him to keep going with his art. Gay-os ensues.
MiniCat: Tyler doesn’t like Mini (a semi popular movie critic Tumblr) and so he sends him an anon message (was going to send hate, but Brian tells him to send a ‘love ask’ to pull a prank on him) and Tyler kinda expects a pompous answer or him kinda gloating about people sending him love. Instead, he’s surprised when Mini is really humbled, and starts to ask questions about him, as he would like to ‘get to know the person who was stupid enough to fall for him’. Tyler’s kinda stuck now, and he sorta grumbles out a ‘you’re not that stupid’ and hence them kinda talking through asks. Then Mini boldly tells him to send him a private message to him because he wants to get to know him better. Tyler, in a panic, creates ‘I-Am-Wildcat’ and reblogs a bunch of random shit to make it look like he had a blog all along. Accidentally shares some nsfw stuff, including gay boys, and Mini is like ‘oh wow, you’re really proactive about gay rights and stuff, that’s really cool’. Tyler is actually really sorta closeted atm, so he’s like ‘....fuck’. But hey, he’s anon, so it won’t REALLY hurt, right? And it’s through kinda talking to Mini that he starts to become okay with himself, and then comes the problem; how does he tell Mini that he’s falling for him when 1) Mini doesn’t know he’s gay irl and 2) The whole thing was a joke from the beginning? (not anymore lmao)
Krii7y: Smiity had just ended a relationship and was kinda feeling like shit about it. Put a post up saying ‘Should I even keep my tumblr? It’s not like anyone would care’. Smiity ends up getting an anon saying ‘I care, you fuck.’ Smiity, feeling a little self-deprecating, starts a conversation with ‘Kryoz’ about how he’s wrong, and if he did disappear, it wasn’t like this guy actually knows him. And when the guy is like ‘I do’ and Smiity is like ‘prove it’, the guy sends a anon with Smiity’s real name. And now Smiity’s like ‘wait wtf how do you know me? Who are you?’ and Kryoz is like ‘figure it out, bitch’. And this whole story is like, Smiity trying to figure out who this person is, while Kryoz gives him clues as well as flirts kinda (in their weird way) and Smiity is so focused on this new person and figuring it out that he kinda slips out of his depression about his ex and falls for this new quirky man.
So yeah, these are my silly AUs for these weirdos involving Tumblr asks. I don’t know, I just...my brain is too full of stuff. Just had to get these out. Let me know what you think.

Campfire Song
Inspired by @firstaidquarters and @binibiningdarna I couldn’t help myself! I love mythos, musicals, and the bbs boys. I had to change a few a lyrics to make it fit for the half-bloods. I don’t know everyone’s godly parent, but I had to look into it because I want to make it right!
Anyways, enjoy!
“Come on, grab some ambrosia, and let the nectar flow.” Luke puts ambrosia on his plate, but scraps it off along with everyone else.
“Why is everyone scraping the food off of their plate into the fire?” Delirious asked. “Is the food here really that bad?”
Luke points at the sky, “Offering to the gods. It's not enough that their omnipotent and all-powerful, they need to feel appreciated.” He pick up his guitar and raises his hand before strumming. “To the gods!”
“To the gods!”
Oh, things couldn't be worse. When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn't be worse. When your folks run the universe
My dad is Hermes. He messengers things. You'll know his sign by his shoes with those wings. I'd wait by the phone, but the phone never rings
Oh no
The half-bloods nods in agreement. One said ‘I feel you dude’.
When your dad's a god, life can be tough. I met the guy once, and once was enough
“Tyler?”
“No.” He grunted and crossed his arms.
“Aww, come on. You'll get to rap it…” Luke has a huge grin plastered on his face.
“Don't tell anyone…”
My dad's Ares. He's strong and has a huge temper. He’ll slaughter enemies and any those who whimper. But if he came to camp, it'd be a surprise that he remember
Oh no
“Oh no...” Luke and Craig synchronized.
Oh, and my stepdad, he hates me, and my mom works all day. So I left Virginia and I ran away
“Wait, is that true?”
“Everybody!”
Oh, things couldn't be worse. When your parents run the universe. Oh, things couldn't be worse. When your folks run the universe
“Alright, who's next?”
“Oh!” Craig rises his hand. “Okay, let me see…”
My mom's Demeter. Goddess of grain. She gets excited when it starts to rain. But planting and planting and planting is a pain
Oh no
Oh no
“Right?!”
For their sixteenth birthday, my friends got a car. I got a fern in some dumb mason jar
“Ooh, ooh! My turn!” Smiity yelled as he pushes Craig aside causing him to yelp.
I'm a child of Iris. Goddess of the rainbow. It's not really interesting to see, ya know? I am pansexual, at first I thought I was gay, but it was a long ago
Oh no…
Oh no
I was bullied for crushing on some cool guy. And I wish my mom could help me out, but she didn't even try
Smiity sat down while wiping some of his tears away.
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your folks run the universe
Delirious spotted Chiron. “Hey Chiron! Who's your godly parent?”
“Oh, well…” Chiron clears his throat.
My father is Kronos. Remember my lecture. He ate his children
Luke inhaled, “Chiron wins.”
Everyone nodded.
“How about you Anthony?” This made Anthony grinned before singing.
The god of wine. My dad's Dionysus. He's bit of an asshole and maybe grievous. I'm scared because he has a cult which it is suspicious
“Oh no!”
“Why?” Anthony groaned.
I tried to seek help from even the fates. Cause I might get kidnapped from them since the wine has become a wastes
“Alright Percy, it's your turn.”
“If I tried to sing, it'll probably cause an avalanche.” Delirious laughs nervously.
“Oh, we're all friends here. Come on, give it a shot.” He strums his guitar and waits for him.
My mom was named Dahlia. She loved scary movies. And food that was blue. And-
“He's doing it wrong.” Craig mentioned.
“Yeah, who's your godly parent?”
“Oh... I don't know.” Delirious looks down at his hands.
“It's alright A lot of half-bloods never know their godly parent.” Luke patted his shoulders. “Just give it a try.”
So my dad is some god. That's great I guess... Did he not want me? Or not want the stress? Too bad he's the worst, and my life is a mess. Oh no
The group cheered around the campfire for Delirious.
I hope he shows even a trace. Cause I got some choice words to throw in his face!
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn't be worse
But I don't care where our parents may be. As long as you are here with me. We don't care where our parents may be
As long as you are here with me. As long as you are here with me!

I hope you enjoy part 4, although the ending may tug at the heartstrings a little. Let me know what you think XD
Also, you do want me to keep uploading stories every day/every other day or pace them out a bit more? I feel like I’m just spamming you guys all the time so I’m sorry about that :/
Part 1, 2, 3
Hours later he’s still on the roof, the fire having been put out long ago, laying on his back as he stares up at the stars, barely able to make them out due to the hazy glow the city adds to the night sky. He yearns to go to the countryside, to the small clearing through a forest which he and Luke used to camp at, taking themselves away from the stresses of daily life to just take a deep breath and enjoy what little time they had with the other.
He likes to think that Luke’s up there now, up in amidst the stars he loved so much, watching over him. The thought soured in his mind, Luke would hate who he’d become, what he’d become. Giving one final look he stood up, grabbing his bag and making his way down the fire escape and landing lightly on his feet in the now dark alleyway.
As he started to head towards the dimly lit street he couldn’t help but feel eyes on him, he tried to reason that it was just paranoia, he had two gangs after him after all, but having been in this line of work for so long he knew when to trust his gut. He put his hands into his hoodie pocket, hand clasped around the knife he’d claimed earlier when he heard a loud crash near the road and like lightning, he turned his head to see a flash of blue dart around the corner.
He ran out the alley, knife brandished as he turned the corner and went into a defensive pose, expecting a fight, but seeing nothing. The street was completely empty, not even a car on the road. The quiet of the street was eerie and did little to put him at ease, he stayed there for a moment longer before putting the knife back in his pocket, keeping wary as he started to head down the street for a place to sleep for the night.
He thought it would take a lot longer to readjust to homelessness, having been almost two decades since he was last on the streets, but strangely it was like riding a bicycle. He knew skipping town wasn’t an option, it’d almost be too easy for either gang to chase him down and kill him, and besides, he had unfinished business here.
Due to his ribs, he’s been forced to lay low for the first few weeks, never staying in one part of the city too long, rarely frequenting the same place twice and mainly traveling at night. Gangs were like monsters under the bed, they preferred the cover of darkness to hunt their prey, so therefore the prey had to be alert.
During the day he was still constantly on the move, stopping only to sleep for a couple of hours before moving on to a new spot for another few hours. It was tedious and tiring but given that he’d had no sign of G’s gang or BBS in the last five weeks meant that it was working, until it didn’t.
He was heading to the ‘local’ jaunt under a freeway where most homeless came at night, he only came here once a week tops, mainly to hear any new info. Being the bottom of the food chain, these people normally saw and heard things which the normal person wouldn’t pay much mind to but was worth its weight in gold to him.
He was slowly making his way to one of the fire pits where Carl, an older man ranging in his 60’s who was the unspoken leader of the people here and had somehow taken Ryan under his wing, was standing. He was talking to two guys which Ryan quickly recognized to be two of G’s men.
They weren’t much more than henchmen, simply sent around to do the nitty gritty no one else wanted, despite their slender bodies Ryan knew how aggressive and dangerous the pair were, having been out on jobs with them many times.
He stuck to the shadows as he tried to move closer in an effort to make out what they were saying, he saw them hold up a picture of him, asking Carl if he’d seen him, but Carl denied all knowledge, as did the others around the fire. He breathed a sigh of relief, once this was all over he’d have to come back to express his gratitude to the man.
At the news that no one had seen him the two men started to make their way out of the underpass until another guy approached them, and that’s when he felt all colour leave his face.
When he’d first come here Ryan had unintentionally gotten himself a reputation, the first night he’d stayed a group of middle-aged guys had seen him pull food out of his bag and soon came over demanding he handed it over. He refused, which made one of the guys pull his fist back and aim a punch to his face, Ryan easily deflected it before throwing his own punch to the man who quickly fell to the floor.
A minute later and all five guys were on the floor, hands holding their bloodied noses before sulking back into their corner. From then on people knew not to fuck with him, but he’d always seen the hatred and anger in their eyes, now it appeared that karma had come to bite him in the ass.
He couldn’t hear what was said between the men, only saw the two guys pull their guns towards Carl and demanding answers, but still, he refused to give them, and Ryan knew he’d just signed his own death warrant.
Before either could shoot he quickly pulled out his knife and threw it at them, catching one of them in the throat, where he soon fell to the floor, the other guy quickly aiming his gun towards the direction where the knife had come.
He moved on the balls of his feet through the darkness as the other henchman started to approach but hadn’t yet seen him. Ryan could only creep around the pile of rubble he was hiding behind as the man got closer, getting ready to launch himself when the man came into view. The guy had just come into his eyesight when he suddenly stopped, Ryan could only hearing gargling noises before the henchmen fell to the floor dead.
He turned the corner to see Carl standing there, his knife in hand before he spat on the guy's body.
“I believe this is yours” The older man handed the knife back to Ryan, he quickly wiped it on the dead guy's trouser leg before pocketing it again. “Seems you got yourself into quite the bit of trouble here”
Ryan could only let out at terse laugh at the understatement of the century “You could say that; don’t suppose you could get rid of a couple of bodies for me?”
“We’ll take care of ‘em, you just go and be safe now okay?” Carl put his hand on his shoulder and gave it a light squeeze, he could only nod his head as he felt his throat thick with emotion.
Ryan then took off his bag to rummage through it for a minute before he found what he was looking for. He placed the last of his cash, about $60 in Carls' hand, it was several weeks’ worth of food, but he just wished he had more to give.
“Thank you, Carl, for everything” Now it was Carls turn to nod his head, the two looking at each other for a moment longer before Ryan turned to leave.
He walked around the town for a bit, knowing that neither gang wouldn’t try anything in broad daylight with loads of people around. However, when he was about to cross the road he noticed a reflection in a shop window, it was a guy in a pigs’ mask staring right at him. They stared at each other in silent acknowledgment before a car blocked his view of the window when it had passed Tyler was no longer there.
He grew ever tenser, adrenaline coursing through his system, quickly crossing the road and ducking into an alleyway, scanning the passers-by to see if he saw a familiar face. It was then a light shone in one of his eyes, partially blinding him as he scanned the rooftops, noticing Lui in his monkey mask with a sniper rifle aimed towards him.
He moved deeper into the alley, climbing over the gate which blocked access to the next street across, not sparing a glance behind him as he started weaving his way through the streets and alleys. Eventually, he found himself back at the building where he’d watched his flat burn, he hadn’t meant to come here but he felt some sort of comfort settle over him being here.
He quickly made his way up back onto the roof, taking a moment to appreciate the sight of the city before moving away from the edge to settle himself in for the night. He didn’t know what to expect, whether he’d need to flee or to fight, or if he was lucky it would be event free. He took his pistol from his bag and tucked it into his waistband before patting his midsection until he felt the knife, allowing him to relax a little bit more.
He used his bag for a pillow as he tried to get some sleep before the sun set and the monsters came out.
The sun was just beginning to set behind the high-line of buildings when he woke up, quickly scanning around him to make sure that he was safe. As the sky grew darker he simply sat there, paying attention to any and every noise he heard. After a while, when the chill really started to set in, he pulls the photo from his pocket, now worn at having been folded and unfolded numerous times and teardrops staining it. He doesn’t know how long he stared at it, thinking about what ifs and maybes before he saw movement in his peripheral.
He quickly moved to his feet, gun drawn, when he saw Luke start walking towards him, hands up in surrender.
“Bit trigger happy aren’t we?” There it was, that smooth southern drawl which he’d thought he’d never hear again. He could feel his heart in his throat but still stood his ground, gun pointed towards him. “Not gonna talk huh? Fair enough, I don’t mind sittin’ here”.
Before Luke could make a move, Ryan gestured to the gun in his hand, not letting it leave the man in front of him who shouldn’t be here. “How?” He’s not surprised that his voice cracked, he was too overcome with emotion he could barely even say the word.
“How am I here? Well, see there’s another set of fire escapes on the other side of…..”
“No! How’re you here, how’re you alive?” He noticed his hands shaking as he kept the gun pointed, he refused to believe that this could be his Luke, maybe some sick trick by his mind or his enemies.
A look of pity crossed Lukes’ face, he dropped his arms and cautiously walked towards Ryan, stopping when the still trembling gun was pressed against his chest.
“Why’d you think I’m dead? Because that sick fucker told you so?”
Ryan could only stare into the eyes he loved so much, unable to answer.
“Tell me Ry, what did you see?”
Ryan dropped his gun, holding it loosely in his left hand whilst his right hand went to cup Lukes’ face, the taller man leaning into the touch, but his cheek was ice cold, and that’s when he knew. He tried to smile as tears fell freely down his cheeks.
“I shot you” he moved the hand cupping Lukes’ face to his forehead, pointing his finger at the exact spot his bullet struck, “Right here”. When he removed his hand from Luke he saw that there was blood on it, and when he looked back at the face he’d missed so much he saw blood trickling down his face from his bullet wound.
Luke, seemingly unaffected by the change, then grabbed his shoulders and started shaking him slightly, as if trying to get him out of a trance, almost pleading at him. “No Ryan, what did you really see?” and just as suddenly as he’d come he was gone.
He collapsed back onto the roof, only able to feel that empty cold feeling consume him once more.

Recap of Ika’s IG Live September 16, 2018.
Ika did two lives totaling two hours; Dem joined a little ways into the first one. They were both extremely happy, laughing and touching the whole time. Ika had to keep reminding Dem during the first live that we could see him touching her, and he must have kissed her shoulder 50 times. They also both just look really good; Dem’s abs…
She’s supposed to be cleaning her kitchen and Dem is sleeping.
She took Dem’s shaver and shaved off her edges about three weeks ago. She doesn’t recommend but they grew back in a couple weeks. She used the castor oil and such on them. That’s why she has been wearing wigs because she couldn’t wear clips ins. She thinks she looks better without wigs, they don’t look as natural to her, she doesn’t think she looks as pretty. She has been feeling miserable when wearing them because she was feeling forced to wear them. She is happy with her edges now.
She does still have permed pieces on her hair and she has cut some more off, so it’s shorter, up to like her chin. She plans on cutting it off each time, she can’t shave her head. She didn’t tell Dem she was going to cut her hair, he would’ve told her not to do it. She came home from Edmonton and just chopped it off. She hasn’t been able to find a good hair stylist since hers moved.
She’s not doing any meet and greets.
She went to a L’Oréal event and she got a bunch of lipsticks. She’ll give it away to someone, she’ll ship it to you.
She went to the YSL party and got lipstick there too, and Dem won her this other lipstick she likes a lot.
She’s been taking the natural approach to her look, she’s been wearing lip gloss rather than lip stick.
She mentions some hair products she just bought but hasn’t tried yet.
She doesn’t work out, she tries but it lasts for two days. Her body is catching up to her, the curves aren’t as firm as they used to be. She doesn’t want to do it. So many fitness brands have reached out to her, especially weight loss ones, but she can’t take it. She says she’s drinking too much, they got a bottle of wine yesterday and just drank the bottle themselves, they were supposed to go out but they just stayed in and drank their wine.
Dem is up, and she made him put on pants “he can’t be exposing my things.”
Ika says her stomach is getting too big, she can see it in certain dresses especially, Dem says she’s crazy.
Dem is making bacon. Ika says since he got there the place has been a mess, says it’s his fault.
Dem says he has tried to take her to the gym, but she says he’s in the habit and has been going for ever. Ika doesn’t like doing the gym with Dem because he wants her to put in 100 percent but she’s not going to give that much effort to the gym. 
Dem ate all the chicken nuggets. Ika says candy doesn’t count as bad food, but Dem says sugar isn’t good for you. Dem does say she has nothing to worry about regarding how she looks.
Ika: “Baby, they can see you touching me.” “They can see you grabbing my butt.”
Someone asks for a YouTube video about miracle 10 and her routine. She says she can do a video about her morning routine, or do a live.
Ika says she’s minimizing (Dem: “With what?!”), she wants to start cutting down on the number of products she has. Just have the essentials. She wants to throw everything away and buy just what she needs.
Ika says she was going to make Dem breakfast but if she talked loud enough she knew he would wake up.
Dem keeps rubbing her lower back and is acting playful with her. Every now and then she tickles him and he squeezes her pig tails.
Ika talks about how she can’t find a foundation that matches her skin, she has so many and has to get two to mix them. Ika says Dem is standing in a corner laughing at her, Dem says he’s watching her live just like everyone else.
She has to wear makeup for pics and stuff but she likes how she looks without makeup, she thinks makeup makes her look older.
Someone asks if Dem likes her with or without makeup. Ika says he never tells her to or not to wear makeup or wear her hair a certain way, he’s not that kind of guy/boyfriend.
Ika says she wants to talk to us more as the live is ending. Dem tells her to do another one: “if they’re tired of you, they can hit the exit button and leave. I don’t have that option.” They start laughing. Ika says Dem thinks he’s so funny and ika just rolls her eyes.
They note that ika has never made Dem breakfast, but she does make him dinner and did last night.
The live runs out of time, so she starts a new one.
The movie they saw at TIFF was Private War, it was a true story and Dem liked it. The movie was intense, but Dem liked the whole environment, on a laptop it may not be as good. Popcorn is waiting for you, you get escorted to your seats, the stars are there, etc.
They start eating breakfast and note that they didn’t eat bacon before season 5. She says we need to accept how she eats. Ika says she wants her coffee sweeter so Dem outs more sugar in and stirs it for her, it’s cute.
Ika asks why some of us are single, from a place of love and introspection. Someone says they’re single because they hate commitment. Ika says when you find the right person, you don’t feel trapped. Ika says she feels free with Dem, they don’t feel trapped at all with each other. Someone says the right one has come along yet.
Someone says they don’t know where to find someone. Ika says she had to go on a reality tv show to find this one. Dem: “It took me three years to get on that just to find you. It’s been a journey, babe. It wasn’t easy.”
Ika rubs Dem’s chest and says his chest is so nice, his skin is so nice, his skin is thick, it’s nice quality, it’s durable.
Someone says they’ve been with their boyfriend for seven years and live in different countries, they need to decide if they move or end it. Ika says seven years is a long time to not know what you’re going to do. They need to know where it’s going to go. Ika says she wouldn’t have even given her and Dem’s relationship two years without a plan.
Someone asks for wig tutorials, and ika says others are better. But Dem says she is funnier and so much better to watch than those girls. He says he’s not perfect at workouts but he could give a tutorial, so she could do makeup and wig ones too. They’re always encouraging each other.
Ika says the chapstick challenge was so cringe. They argue about tangerine and orange. Dem says she’s lucky she’s pretty or he’d argue with her more, he’ll let it slide. But then they argue more. Ika: “I’m saying you were wrong, bunches. It’s honey bunches, guys. He wants to win.” Ika says she doesn’t try to win every argument, just those she knows she’s right about. Dem: “We tied. You’re just as big of a loser as I am.”
He keeps kissing her shoulder. At one point he goes to spank her with the spatula and she just laughs.
They talk about Gary and Dem says he’s a good cook, ika says he always said he was practicing for his husband. They note that Gary wants a $750k ring and Dem would joke about how he would need to win a ton of BBs. They say Gary is still humble and down to earth though as well as diva, but unpredictable; Dem says his diva ness is just funny, he doesn’t think he’s better than anyone. When Gary left the house, you could feel the difference in the house, you couldn’t with anyone else. Everything he said or did was funny.
They mention that they wish he could have stayed but they don’t know how it actually would have worked out. Dem says his alliance was his contour kit. Ika says on Dem’s first HOH, she walked into the room and Gary told her to go because he was talking to Dem. ika felt like a peasant as she was a have not too. Dem says he and Gary spent an hour talking about how you pick what to wear that day, it has to fit the mood and everything.
Ika says that she walked into the HOH room and Gary was perched on Dem’s HOH bed. He then kept bringing up the showmance thing, Gary can’t take a hint, in real life either. They reenact the “I’m lying, I’m lying.” Dem says he was so funny.
Ika says she was so thrown off by Cass because she couldn’t believe what a bad game she was playing, maybe because it was so close to her season. They says she was out in a bad situation. Ika’s dream alliance would’ve been Dem, Cass, Gary and then throw Karen in there later. They say Cass is the funniest person ever, she’s not Gary funny, but funny in a different way. Dem says Cass is the opposite of a catty girl. They also talk about how Karen always wanted Dem to take his shirt off, he’s been without a shirt the whole live and looks so good.
Ika says she had some fun times in the house and she does miss it. They had a good time.
Dem and Ika got invited to Cass’s wedding, they made the cut. Sounds like they’ll be there.
They talk about how others always say others say they look like other people, they don’t think they see any resemblance and they don’t like when they get compared. Dem: “No one looks like you. There’s no one as beautiful as you.” Someone says Dem looks like Adam Sandler but Dem doesn’t think Adam Sandler is a good looking guy.
Ika says she watched Swaggy’s YouTube video and he says that he hasn’t dated any black girls, but said that he dated a half black, half Asian girl but Bayleigh’s mom said that didn’t count as dating a black girl. Ika wants to know if she heard that right, because that’s her background, Dem heard that too. Dem: “That counts.” Ika says when she gets asked her background and she says she’s Jamaican, she doesn’t mean anything by it, and it’s not that she doesn’t own her African side. Ika notes that her half sister looks Asian, but she also identifies as black. She notes that in Canada, most people identify as their nationality when asked because everyone is from everywhere.
She notes that black twitter has been educating her.
Dem leaves to go take a shower.
Her pick to win B.B. is Tyler, she hopes he still pulls it out. She likes Kaycee, but thinks Tyler played a better game, but knows everyone is jumping in Kaycee’s bandwagon because they don’t like him. Feels as though Tyler has struggled more than the others, he’s had challenges, it hasn’t been easy for him. Hasn’t seen the last two episodes, wants the season to end.
Mentions she saw on twitter when Julie said her full name: “Girl…”
She runs out of time again, and says she’ll be back.

X’s and O’s
Chapter Two
BBS Gang and Death Timer AU
“Move it or lose it!” Moo’s yell scared everyone into action, running out of the building.
I don't trust that guy one bit, he acts oh so wrong. He stares too long and looks like he takes mental notes on everyone. And don’t get me started on his body language, let's just keep it as unnatural. And the way he speaks, he just wants to be liked. He sucks up to everyone, I bet he could manipulate everyone else in this room without trying. I’m just thankful that we left an hour earlier and got everything. But here we are, sitting with the unnatural monster. Evan and this Moo guy talked about workouts, Luke and Marcel joining the conversation after a while. I sat at my own table, cleaning my sniper rifle. I worked my anger out on it so much it shined in the shadows like a frightening knife.
“Wow! I never knew a sniper could ever be that polished!” I mentally took the knife in my pocket and stabbed him in his stupid neck.
“It takes practice and a lot, and I mean a lot of elbow grease,” I managed to say as I continued to clean, I just want him to leave.
“Well, I came over to tell you that after the briefing, shooting practice after. Well I’ll leave you to it,” his voice almost covered all the disappointment, I’m very pleased with it.
I missed the slams of doors and frantic and angry shouts. I even missed Evan and Tyler calling my name. It took Arlan taking away my rifle to snap me out of my little world. I grumbled as he pointed at Moo and everyone around him. When the hell did he get everyone for the meeting? Reluctantly I got up, with an added groan of annoyance, I joined the meeting.
“Now that everyone is here,” he stopped and caught my eye, “So you all know this is a mission briefing. I don’t like interruptions, so I don't recommend trying it. Now onto the mission. The X’s have planned to attack the outer city building, building eight. In that building, every person in this city’s information is in there. They want that to track any person that stands in their way down, none of us are safe. They will also use this information to recruit more X’s into their ranks! We are to defend the building inside and out! And yes you may steal wallets, as long as you stay on our adjective. Questions?”
“Who is in said mission?” a person asked.
“All of yo-” he stopped his eyes widened in horror,” Get with your gang!”
We all noticed our times fell to two hours. Everyone wanted Nanners’ magic here, at this moment. I wanted it too. We were in a bunch, no one said a word as Moo stopped and thought for few seconds. Please use his magic, please!
“Vanoss,” he said, a frown appeared on his face. “you're not going.”
Moo’s timer went up, I looked over at Evan's to see it skyrocketed up. He knows how to do Nanners’ magic too! He then went through everyone else, until he came back to us. There were ten people with Moo, counting Moo it would be eleven.
“Nogla,... your not going,” no one was shocked by this.
“Wildcat,... your not going,” I was surprised at that one, Tyler was one of our best fighters!
“Mini,... your not going,” relief, Mini couldn’t fight to even save his life.
“Lui,” I was wasn’t worried I couldn’t ever fight against an X’s and win, “Your, going,” he even sounded unsure, but everyone gasped.
“Me? I can’t fight!” I pleaded, he smirked.
“But you can snipe,” we both knew what my task was.
He didn't get anyone else from my gang, and Evan was upset that I was going. But we did know after trial and error, we would be leaving in ten or so minutes.
“Lui, be careful, we can’t lose you okay?” Evan said patting my shoulder.
“Don’t worry, I have a lot of anger stored in my body,” I responded as I walked off towards the table I left my sniper at.
I picked her up and ran towards the training room. I looked down the sights and shot bullseye. I continued to run as I reloaded the rifle, I shot again, bullseye. I stopped on the other side of the room and continually shot targets, bullseye after bullseye. People around the shooting range ducked and stayed out of the way. I growled as I took more and more shots. A hand on my shoulder stopped me.
“Buddy, slow down. I know you're not happy with the results, but we will be fine. You’ll be fine, everyone will be fine. And you’ll even be out of the crossfire,” he paused, “You’re a sniper for a reason.”
He left, with no other words, but left something on my shoulder. It was an outfit, probably for the mission. He only talked to me to give me the getup. Thanks, dude, so nice of you to do that for me. I sighed and walked off with rifle and outfit in hand to my room, shared unfortunately with Brian. I set my rifle onto the bed and closed the door. After a few minutes, I had put on the “uniform” and my mask. I slung my rifle over my shoulder and made my way back into the training area. Heads turned to look at me, and many jaws dropped. I shook my head as I walked over to Evan.
“Hey, Vanoss. How bad do I look?” I laughed, expecting and joke answer.
“Lui you look terrifying, l like the way the suit makes your build stand out. And it makes you seem serious and dangerous,” he answered I grunted.
“The thing is. I don’t like the suit!” I growled.
“Well, that suit will protect you from any bullet and was made by a really good friend of mine. So if you don’t like it, I’ll just inform you. You only have two hours and eight minutes left to live, choose wisely,” Moo’s angry growl scared me into place, the way his voice got deep, and the way it felt like every word was stabbing you in the back.
“I’ll wear it, just don’t do that. It's creepy the way you put that,” I muttered, Evan giggled a bit.
“Well that’s the only way I was going to ever get it through your head,” he hissed, all I saw was his sunset tanktop walk off.
Evan shivered, “What did you do to get him mad?”
“Maybe I didn't care to talk to his earlier. Like I pretty much ignored him,” I shrugged.
“Yeah you did do that, you could've at least acted like you respected him,” Evan said, and a shout from Tyler drew him away.
“We’re leaving!” Moo growled as he put a hand on my shoulder.
“Lui, you’ll be at the top of that building! There you will have a great view of the entrance and exits!” Moo yelled over the train passing by.
“Okay! Where are you going to be!” I yelled back.
“A few rooftops away!” he replied as the train continued to move along. And it wasn't much longer until the train fully passed,”Finally!”
The rest of the ride was silent as we made it to our destination. The whole way their people sat as far from me as they could. They were all wearing the same suit, except they had their gang emblem on them, as I had mine. There were at least two leaders and had the mask of every gang member they had on their suit. I thought it was pretty cool. When Moo stopped the van we carefully got out and grabbed out stuff. Moo went his way, I went mine, and soon I found myself on top of the roof. Looking out at the building and everything around it. An hour passed, and nothing except workers made their way in or out. Until I saw X’s light up the alley a building away.
I grabbed my walkie-talkie, “They are coming from the allies. They are going to make a break for it in a second.”
I aimed my rifle and shot, I soon shot again, by this point I have shot and killed eight of them. A lot made it inside, but some stayed outside to fight back. I could see Moo shoot down at them. Every shot he made hit the target through the back of the head, then I noticed the X behind him. I shot, then listened, nothing was behind me. But the X now laid dead behind Moo, and he nodded. His eagle mask looked cold and sharp, as he shot to kill. I paid no attention as I continued to shoot, and soon no X’s were left outside. Watched through the windows and even shot some of the X’s inside. That's when I heard four shots and a clang behind me, I turned around to see Moo fighting fist to fist with an X. I was too stunned to help him, but he had strength on his side so I don't feel that bad. With a swift punch, the X was knocked out.
He took a knee by the X’s head and took off the mask, “Come look at this. What do you see.”
“A man, blind eyes, and it doesn't make sense. They can’t see, so they shouldn't be able to fight like they do!” I shuddered as I stared at the lifeless eyes.
“His eyes have been dead for a long while, and it's because of the mask and the demon they prey too. If you don’t want to be suck under the masks control, don’t dare put it on,” he paused, “Or I’ll have to kill you.”
“Oh, great!” I shivered, as the walkie-talkie came to life.
“Building is clear, all X’s are dead,” the walkie buzzed.
“Good, collect all the masks. Leave none, and make sure you have a good number on how many kills you got!” Moo ordered through the walkie.
“So that means we won?” I asked while thinking over my kills, “And this whole thing also is a kill for sport?”
“No and yes, we need numbers to count the X’s and some would like to see it as a game,” he paused again, and I hated it, “And you’ll get the tallies on your suit.”
“Oh, about the suits. Where is yours?” I asked not caring to watch my harsh tone.
“Yeah, mine is still not done, and you're driving back, I found a nice motorcycle,” he said and jumped off the roof.
I ran to the edge and looked over. He held onto a ledge and climbed his way down. Damn it I wish he would’ve missed the ledge. Wait I need keys, I was about to yell, but I looked next to the ledge. There the keys glittered in the faint sunlight. Now I really have to drive home. And within an hour everyone was in the van with all the masks, after a few bumps and bruises. On the way back, I saw him. And in fact, he was riding a very nice motorcycle. But his mouth was moving and he looked like he was having a conversation. What is he doing! We passed him and soon made it make. I went straight to Arlan and Ohm, they were the medics in our gang. I had a few when someone thought it was fun to push me down the stairs. Evan was not happy with that, and personality paid them a visit. Ohm and Arlan wanted to scream at Moo for letting it happen. That's when we all heard screaming, we all knew the voice. Krism and Minx, and they were yelling at Moo himself.

I don’t want to cause a mess on your blog. But, I wonder about your opinion of people consistently praising (and being obsessed) straight wh*te gi*ls when it comes to lgbtq work. I wouldn’t have a problem if they also supported actual lgbtq artists as much as they did them. I think with Pride month it’s definitely pushing a nerve
lol i hate it so hard. i wrote a full on tedtalk about down below lol it’s very train of though so soz if it makes 0 sense
playing a gay character doesnt do anything and i HATE that people are like ‘oh yes queen!!!’ ‘gay rights!!!’ like i get it’s a joke but 1) the people saying this are like......sometimes bi, usually straight who use the term bi because, believe it or not, people do that but you can always tell who’s faking it so dont stress lol and 2) these girls are doing the easiest thing ever: not hating gay people and yall are living for it. 
even in the bway community yall WET YOURSELVES over betsy wolfe playing a lesbian but here’s a hit take: she’s still straight, she did nothing groundbreaking with that show. she isnt an honorary lesbian. she’s doing the bare minimum. and i dont wanna hear that ‘oh it’s just a joke’ with shit like ‘[actress who played a gay character’s name here] can say dyke’ because then that shit happens like when caity lotz said dyke lol that was you guys, you fuelled it so hard. and with the bway community again this is a little unrelated but STOP with the whole ‘dont assure the sexuality oof people like ben tyler cook and any other white newsies’ because.....ben’s gay. he’s gay. like......he’s gay. he’s worn shirts that say shit like ‘boys liek boys’ and yall straightie fansies are still like ‘HE COULD BE STRAIGHT!!!!’ like girl wake. up.
THEN the music industry is a whole other mess. that boring girls song with cardi b and rita ora came out and like....it basically was the exact same message as i kissed a girl with his ‘i kiss girls when im drunk at parties and even though it’s a thing even straight girls will do just for the experience i gotta right a song about it’ only girls features the horrible phrase ‘kush loving’. then hayley k and kehlani say that the song was offensive and you get 100000 youtubers making videos calling hayley triggered and offended by everything and people on twitter calling her a drama queen and people like ‘hypocrite all hayley’s song are about kissing girls she’s a gatekeeper’ IT’S NOT GATEKEEPING BECAUSE IF YOU ONLY KISS GIRLS DRUNK AND HIGH AT PARTIES YOU’RE NOT GAY THAT’S THE TEA’ call me problematic but i dont believe half those people are bi like they claim lol cancel me bbs. cardi b definitely isnt ,she’s a homophobe lol. and then people were ‘well this was my experience too! this is how i feel same with rita or hayley MADE HER COME OUT!’ nah bitch rita chose to come out when she wrote and recorded a whole damn song. she knows gay sells. like and no one talks about mary lambert even though she’s the best lgbt artist of today. she is amazing. but she’s fat and has mental illnesses that aren’t just anziety and slight depression so fandoms dont want her because she cant be marketed as a sex symbol. because even though they’re amazing.....hayley kiyoke and kehlani are marketed as Sex. and people see that and are like ‘yesss lesbian queen!’ but ignore everything behind the song. like how people still think hayley is bi. if you’re only supported gay art and not the people who create the art you’re gross. girls like girls isn’t a bi anthem it’s a lesbian anthem because it was written for lesbians. all of troye sivan’s music is aimed towards uplifting gay men. ariana grande, and im sorry to say this, is about straight people. and men. you can call no tears left to cry a gay anthem and this song an anthem and this song but they’re still written by straight atrist while you guys are ignoring smaller gay artists because it’s not much effort looking for them WHEN THE REASON THEY’RE NOT POPULAR IS BECAUSE PEOPLE IN THE BUISSNESS SEE IT AS ‘this song needs to market to everyone’ and even straight people like little twinks so troye sells. but ive never heard hayley on my radio....but i’ve heard girls because it’s as gay as it can be without it being a ‘gay anthem’ because it’s literally 2018 i kissed a girl. 
gay music goes ignored, actual gay theatre actors are ignored if they’re ‘undesirable’ which means not blonde sopranos in the 20′s-30′s ike jen colella and beth malone and straight women producing music, films and media about gay characters ill always make more money than something produced by gay people they dont want to hear something ‘too gay’.

It's been too long since I asked you question right ? So I have question for you :) first: BIG HUG, My question is: We don't know much about Scott's family, like his grandparents or where his family come from really so do you have any headcanons for his family ? ( and are you going to develop it in frost bite ? ) BIG HUG.
Years and years ago, my mother sat my ass down and made me watch some weird romantic dramedy about a hotel maid in Manhattan, creatively titled Maid in Manhattan. Among other things, there was a requisite Cute Kid who drove most of the plot, who was the son of the titular maid. Who was this kid you might ask?
BABY TYLER POSEY!
Tumblr media
Bb!Tyler’s character, named Ty, often hung out in the hotel while his mom worked. This made it easy for him to run into a Senatorial candidate, who he wanted to interview for a school project. He tracked down his mom to ask for permission to help the guy walk his dog and interview him for the project - except due to a series of shenanigans, she gets mistaken for a rich socialite instead, and she and the politician hit it off. Of course, the truth eventually comes out, weird drama happens in the middle, and in the end, bb!Tyler eventually reunites her with the candidate.
Tumblr media
Among other things, there was a subplot in which Ty actually dreads having to give the presentation for his school project, because he’s got a fear of public speaking. Turns out the candidate also hates public speaking, and the way he copes with his career being centered around it involves always holding a paperclip when he’s giving speeches, because he imagines it’s a channel by which all his speaking anxiety leaves him. The way bb!Tyler reunites the two characters involves crashing a press conference and very cutely asking some questions that makes the grown-ups realize their true feelings.
Tumblr media
Of course, he was only able to do so because he was holding a paperclip - and it turns out he’s not the only one.
Tumblr media
Incidentally, though, that candidate’s played Ralph Fiennes - aka M from some James Bond movies…and Voldemort from the Harry Potter movies. >:) He also played secret agent John Steed in the 1998 movie The Avengers, which was an adaptation of the British TV series of the same name, with absolutely no connection to the superhero team, or Marvel in general. ;)
Now, another fun fact: I’m a huge West Wing fan. Imagine my shock when I was watching Teen Wolf and President Santos’ assistant and campaign staffer, Bram Howard, showed up in Teen Wolf. Who is Bram Howard? Glad you didn’t ask!
Tumblr media
Bram Howard was played by Matthew Del Negro, the guy who plays Agent McCall in Teen Wolf. In The West Wing, he was a campaign staffer for Congressman Santos, the guy who ultimately became the new President of the United States in the finale of the show - making Bram Howard a White House staffer.
But how would this work with Rafael’s current job with the FBI? Well, I’m glad you didn’t ask that, either, because guess who was in the West Wing before the first Iron Man movie even came out, pre-dating the entire MCU?
Tumblr media
Years before anyone came up with an ascended fanboy SHIELD agent in the MCU, Clark Gregg was playing an FBI agent in The West Wing. So clearly, there’s some precedent for FBI operations in politics (and/or SHIELD going undercover with the FBI somehow).
Tumblr media
Now, Melissa Ponzio - the actress for Melissa McCall - also has a pretty interesting filmography. The Teen Wolf writers really passed up a great opportunity by making Melissa basically a damsel in distress for Season 6A. Given the Ponzio already has some experience playing a BAMF as Karen in The Walking Dead, they could’ve done SO FUCKING MUCH with a Hunter/badass Melissa in Teen Wolf.
Tumblr media
However, this is more recent (in fact, I believe this happened after Ponzio started playing Melissa McCall). And, more importantly, if Melissa were able to handle a gun that well, would she really have ever worked as a maid? Probably not. But, let’s say that there was a period of time in her life where she really needed money. What might a young Melissa might’ve done, that she would’ve hated doing and absolutely been willing to leave to become a maid? Well, maybe she played the kind of character Ponzio played in Life as We Know It: a stripper.
Tumblr media
As for Teen Wolf itself:
While I suspect this is mostly down to really shitty writing and lack of production communication, the fact is that we never really see any family photos or indications of an extended family in the McCall home. We never really saw any in the Stilinski family home, either - and we now know that at least from the Sheriff’s side, this is because of severe daddy issues leading to the Sheriff trying to keep his own father away from his family as much as possible. What if he’s not the only one?
Also, I can tell you from personal experience that - while not all of them - a lot of women will often stay with really shitty husbands because that’s the sort of thing they grew up with. Their fathers were shitty husbands to their mothers (ranging from philandering to drinking to abuse, all of which we’ve seen at least hints of with Agent McCall), and so many don’t leave their own husbands because they think it’s normal (or they know it’s not, but it is what they’re used to - and better the devil you know than the devil you don’t).
Also, I won’t speak for everyone, but I do know that divorce is often a process, and there can be periods of time where your parents are separated but not divorced, and that when one of your parents finally leaves the other, it’s often long, long overdue.
So here’s my headcanon for the McCall family background in general (at least until it’s jossed in 6B):
Melissa’s family was really, really shitty, and she left as soon as she could. She worked part-time as a hotel maid in San Francisco, and moonlighted as a stripper, because she’s hot af.
This was when and how she met a young, up-and-coming FBI agent named Rafael McCall, when he was working undercover as a campaign staffer for a shady politician who was spending some time in the hotel she cleaned up for (and who once threw a party involving strippers, including herself).
After the guy was busted for whatever the FBI was investigating him for, Melissa and Rafael hooked up, Rafael got her pregnant, and they got married. They moved out to a small town nearby, which was small enough to support their suburban family ‘happily ever after’ dreams (though also had enough crime that Rafael could find plenty of investigative work in town - dude, this is Beacon Hills).
However, Rafael was neither an ideal husband (the philandering we hear about from Grandpa Stilinski in 6A) nor an ideal father (the drinking stated outright by Melissa in 3B, and the multiple vague implications of abusive behavior). Melissa starts nursing school in large part to get out of the house and away from Rafael (and with the vague hope that once she’s a nurse, she will be able to support herself and her son, and can leave Rafael if needs be).
The Staircase Incident happens, and she finally kicks Rafael out of the house. He leaves quietly, because the reality is that if Melissa wanted to, she could at best end his career and at worse get him imprisoned for hurting and nearly killing his own child.
(I also like to headcanon that the Staircase Incident is actually why Scott’s jaw is off-center. Rafael doesn’t know because Scott was too concussed at the time to express pain, and by the time Scott and Melissa realized his jaw was broken, Rafael was gone and Melissa had no desire to reach out to him over this.)
Since Melissa was only just finishing up nursing school/just starting out as a nurse at this point, she got her old job at the hotel back for a little while to help support herself and Scott, now that they didn’t have Rafael anymore to rely on.
Of course, that politician whose campaign was how she and Rafael met swings by, and now he’s running for Senate. He initially hits it off with Scott and Melissa both, even letting bb!Scott interview him for a school project and giving him some public speaking pointers. Unfortunately, he quickly revealed himself to be a racist (benevolent racist, maybe, but still racist), which is why Stiles called him Voldemort from then on. :P
For Winter Wolves in particular:
The politician in question was actually under HYDRA’s thumb, which is why even with an FBI agent undercover in his staff, no one was ever able to find anything on him.
Rafael McCall and Phil Coulson had crossed paths a few times in the past during Phil’s undercover stint with the FBI.

EPISODE 0 (BALLOTS): GET ANOTHER SHOT AT TAKING THE CROWN - KEEGAN
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm watching everyone join the chat and keeping tabs on who played once or twice so i know who look out for on the ballot or possibly in the game. I know people from my season probably hate me and will never trust me in games ever again so i'm trying to keep my head down and my wig on because i know if i do get voted in along with that don't like game me, i'm truly fucked. I'm still excited and hopeful for the best.
Every time I look at the ballot, I flinch and cringe a bit because it's almost guaranteed that whoever gets on this season will have a partner with them from their season which is pretty much an alliance right off the bat. It worries me because I could be without a seasonal partner which could put a target on my back if I do get into the game, or the game will be even harder to play because everyone will be expected to be with their partner and divergence from that system could cause serious chaos
Tumblr media
Honestly, I don't think I stand a CHANCE against some of these other people in the ballot. Some people in the ballot are literal legends in both the TS and BB communites so I'm honestly just hoping for the best that I'll make the cut. If I make it onto the cast I hope Dom, Nick & Luke are there with me since I know them all but I'm sure I'll be happy with whoever I'm in the game with as long as I get cast!
Tumblr media
Well I'm nervous as always when it comes to public vote. I think I can get enough votes to make it!! I know I have a fan club that is doing what they can. If I don't get in it's not like it's the end of the world!! Yeah it would be fun but there are always more seasons!!! I just hope it's not casted with people that are gonna be inactive or complete butts. Like Matthias - please no I like him but please don't cast him. In games he is a mess.
Tumblr media
I feel like people have more connections with alot of people here in the tumblr community. Me in the other hand has less connections with most of the community. I can tell by this ballot that if you are popular you can get instantly in and I feel like there's more to this ballot but it's just my guess. I feel like the Great Lakes people are all in and another season of 4 I forgot (on phone btw) is in as well. That's probably a pre-made alliance by now and if I was in ima make sure to find an idol first and making sure my own cover is there so that way one by one they will go down, honesty is the best policy and I play true to the heart and I may be nice, but if I played a 2nd time ima play like a comp beast that no one can try to beat. My entity of advertising is to not campaign and not to ask people to campaign for me but to get them to campaign to vote me without me actually doing the work but with a little bit of me saying yes please vote me but without saying to vote me in a lot of vocabulary terms. Win or lose the ballot it was great being asked to play again despite whatever happens will happen.
Tumblr media
i don't think i have a shot at being cast so i don't have much to say. i just hope that the cast is adorable. if i get in then this world is fucked up.
Tumblr media
It's funny to submit a confessional for a series you haven't been cast on yet. There's 30 options. I have played exactly 3 games in the community since joining in late 2016. Myanmar was my first game and I tanked that pretty bad. Since then, I won House of Shade 16 and I played Survivor Wikia: Morocco on Facebook and placed 4th, winning Player of the Season. I now feel like I'm ready to come back to Tumblr Survivor and see if I can play a better game than previous. Looking at the prospective cast, I am the oldest on the ballot by 4 years, so I definitely have my work cut out for me no matter what. I have only played with Keegan, my Myanmar castmate, but I'm friendly with Trent (Kiribati) because he hosted Survivor Wikia: Morocco. My strategy for campaigning has been to just be visible in the VL because a lot of people have made it obvious that they only know a few people and they, for whatever reason, are required to fill up the ballot with 10 names. I'm befriending as many people in the chat as possible to take the opportunity to be fresh in their heads when they're selecting randoms to fill out the rest of their ballots. So far, I like Nick (bio video notwithstanding), Tyler (though the vast majority of the community has told me to stay far away from him), Renee, Ian, Benjamin, Zack, Logan, Ci'ere (who lives in the same city that I do), Steven, Ashton, Kage, Luke, and Bodhi (that list was longer than intended. It looks like I just like everybody).
To summarize: My campaign is literally just participation. My friends from other ORGs voting for me is the same expectation everyone else should have. The real game is convincing losers you don't know that they should vote for you in addition to the 3-4 people they have history with.
Tumblr media
Um I'm worried I'm not gonna be cast becuz I don't really know anybody in this community but strategies hmmmm I'm in pretty big reddit org community so Ive posted the ballot in there everyday which probabaly got me some extra votes people couldn't get. But other than that I feel like the only people I'm getting are the other Great Lakes people which maybe is enough but I doubt it. Anyways, hopefully I'm cast..don't think I will be.
Tumblr media
I'm not really doing much for the ballot honestly! I'm just posting it in a few chats I am in and sending it to friends that I know are voting for me. I am also making sure that I vote myself everyday and haven't missed one yet! I'll probably get more aggressive as the days go on, because I want to make sure I at least have a group of 10-15 I know are voting me. What I like is that you are required to vote for 10 people in my group so I hope I'm not just skipped and some people accidentally vote for me!!
Tumblr media
Right now my strategy is being an annoying fly and fly into all the chats I'm in and tell them to vote for me. I was shook to see 4 Bora Bora reps including myself in the ballot. Not to mention 3 Mystic Falls peeps and Luke as well. I'm already trying to assess these people in the ballot and get a read on them. Anyways hopefully all the Bora Bora and Mystic Falls get casted because I love them all.
I'm supposed to be well liked so hopefully that gets me the votes?? Okay back to being an annoying fly.
Tumblr media
Alright there friends. Welcome to my second season on Tumblr Survivor. I'm very excited to get everything working, it's all falling together with relative ease.
So on my ballot, there's quite a few people. A whole 15 of them in fact.
Ok so Logan and I are both from Maine. I have NO FUCKING CLUE where Ellsworth even is, but I'll trust that it's in Maine. We are also both Jews, and with the addition of Daisy, this might be the highest concentration of Jews in human history. We hit it off well enough, we'll work together if we can.
Dom R seems like a cuck, but fortunately for us, I'm also a cuck! what a beautifully cute insult. Now, Dom was kind enough to elaborate on his game in his little campaign video, and it is CLEAR to me that he is not that great at this game. He'll make the merge, and he'll be eliminated as a threat, and everyone(including me) will say "oh no, Dom was robbed." But we'll be wrong. He doesn't understand the game a high enough extent I don't think. He is very much on the "prove myself, make a move" train, which is NOT HEALTHY. I hope that Dom proves me wrong with his game, because I really like the guy off of my first impression alone, but I think he'll make a move too early and pay for it.
C, I, E R E, don't forget the apostrophe. God, this is an annoying way to say your name. On that fact alone, I didn't vote Ci'ere in the first two ballots. However, I decided on a whim to talk to him, and I actually really like the guy. He's a little over the top, but hey, so am I, just in a different way. I'm excited for Ci'ere, because I think that I can make other people feel rubbed the wrong way by him, but I also think that he could be a great ally.
Akito seems beloved, so I'm checking that name on every ballot. I want to maximize my own chances by throwing away my votes at people who I feel are already guaranteed a spot. I don't click that well with Akito, but I think I could if we were on the same tribe.
Max lists off 3 seasons they were on previously. Um, excuse me, but isn't this SECOND chances?
I am PUMPED for some Brett. I didn't care about Brett until now, but his calling out the Tumblr community in his paragraph that is posted ON TUMBLR is incredible. I really hope that he gets on, because we need at least one straight white male to fulfill the diversity requirements.
Keegan's intro is so LONG, but he seems like a good threat to have around. I think he's got a decent shot at winning, but not really. He says that he will do anything to win, which probably includes losing.
Steven and I won't click I don't think. He says iconic about FOUR DAYS. Like, iconic is only a cool word if you don't overuse it. See Brett for more info. He's gonna make big moves, so I want him on my side. He won't win, but he could make it a little ways into the game, and he'd be a convenient shield because EVERYONE is rooting for his success in the VL. I actually take back that we wont get along. "Nothing says winning like two rocks in your pocket" is a beautiful quote, and I really like Steven now.
Dom A was player of the season in India. I was POTS in my season as well, so hopefully there will be a mutual shield relationship with us two.
ASHTON and I never really clicked on GL. I liked the guy, but Kage wanted him gone, and I wanted Kage in charge, so I let it happen. Ashton was MAD at me, but I did what I had to.
Kage was my favorite. He LOVES grabbing control of the game and tearing it to the ground, but the problem is that everyone sees through him. Kage will be an early boot this season, but he'd better be on my side until he goes.
Luke thinks that he played a good game in Great Lakes. I very much disagree with this notion, and I need to avoid telling him that I think his game was very average. He just played idols that he found out of sheer luck too early, and got voted out for playing too hard. His social game makes everyone think that he's scheming too much, which is not exactly what you want the perception of you to be. I am excited to play with Luke again because I really love the guy, but I'm going to have to keep my mouth shut.
Lily gave a terrible bio, and all I know is that her perception of the game seems below average.
Daisy seems very intelligent. I would love to work closely with Daisy. She and I are both Jews, and I've very offhandedly mentioned the possibility of a Jewish alliance called "the Jews did this" just because I think that's funny.
Alright!! ON TO MYSELF! So am I going to win second chances? probably not. I don't think I have that much of a shot at all actually. But I'm going to give it my all, and try to play the most fun game that I possibly can. I'm floating around so very many new strategic ideas, and I'm narrowing in on a game plan. I want to be that one guy who is just controversial enough that people will think I'm a goat, but just sensible enough that people will want to work with me. I essentially want to be Abi Maria, except it's all an act. I am very excited to play this game out. I don't know to what extent I will take this strategy, but I know that to an extent I'll be playing a new character this season, which excites me quite a bit. I'll throw challenges just a little bit this time around, because I think that it's exhilarating, but I don't want people realizing that I'm throwing them. There's a whole new dimension that needs to be applied now. Originally, I just wanted to seem like I am not a threat at all, but now I have to seem like I'm not trying to seem like I'm not a threat, while still minimizing my threat factor. WHEW this is gonna be fun.
Outside of my ballot, I really like Ryan. He talks in a way that shows his intelligence. He pauses, and then lets out a bunch of words at once, which is a very appealing way to speak in my opinion. I think he's going to overplay, but I'd like him on my side while he does it.
Renee is going to be one of the bigger threats in the game. I think she's not in a great position to win, but she's got a good shot. I'm very excited to play with her.
I really love Ian's accent. He wants to prove himself which is great for my game. I don't want to prove myself at all, I just want to win, and these people saying that proving themselves is important is EXCELLENT.
Trent is over the top in the best possible way. I love Trent.
Apparently Ashley Sarah is very popular, so I'll watch out for her.
Zack is a very good player. That is no good.
Tumblr media
Uh so like, I'm not entirely confident about getting onto the season and I really do think it's all down to the season that I originally come from. People literally hate the Great Lakes cast and it's not hard to see why because all tea, they're some of the most annoying people I've ever met in my life. I'm being shady by not voting for any of the other Great Lakers on the ballots but that's because I don't want any of them in the season with me! Ashton and Kage don't deserve it and quite frankly, Bodhi is full of himself and he ain't that great so there's that!
I'm trying my best to campaign for votes, getting a couple people from outside the community to vote for me so that's cute. I'm putting the link in my Skype bio, on my Tumblr and just places where people might click it and vote for me! I really do think that I deserve this second chance but there are 4 Great Lakers on the ballot and like....people won't wanna vote for all 4 of them so they might be leaving me out. I'm literally guilty by association for being on one of the worst seasons but I was one of the shining lights of that season, know that. Can't wait to get dragged for this in the GL reunion chat if this gets released. Oops!
Tumblr media
Finals can't keep a hoe from campaigning
Tumblr media
I'm so glad that campaigning is 1/3 of the way done because I think I'm annoying everyone by telling them to vote for me everyday lmao. I'm one of the lesser known people in the Tumblr community, so I'm going to have to work twice as hard to get my name out there and collect dem votes. Luckily, people like unique names so that's a plus for me!! My predictions on official cast locks from group one are Trent, Tyler, Matthias, Ryan, Nick, Renee, Ashley Sarah, Abel, Jeff and Zack. For group two: Bodhi, Keegan, Brett, Steven, Ashton, Logan, both Doms, and Kage. This is based on video views and how people are socializing/campaigning for their faves. I didn't really care for Max's video, but their self-deprecating manner and individuality makes me hope they get through. I'm trying to socialize a lot in the VL, send some cute selfies lmao, and literally message every group chat I'm in to garner votes. I literally gave someone my face wash routine asdfghjkl. I hope that people are liking me and that in about 9 days 'll be sending confessionals from in the game! I really want this second chance and I'm gonna go all out for it.
Tumblr media
Hey fam so it's day 4 of the ballot and~~~~~ I'm not sure how well my chances of making it on are tbh. I've done some campaigning and asked friends to vote but it's really a daunting task to keep up with it everyday lol. Honestly though I do think I have a good shot of avoiding being the 5 who don't get in (from my group)
I see people advertising e v e r y w h e r e.... like they really going HAM!!!
I feel like there's sooo much pregaming going on that I'm not apart of kfhslajd rip. Bodhi in particular..... he messaged me like day 1 and we had a really good conversation and seems like someone I could work with. But as the days went on I talked to some others & they're all like "omg Bodhi is so great i love him" sooo I see you Bodhi!!!
Tumblr media
WHICH OF YOU UGLY MOTHERFUCKERS DECIDED TO MOVE THE PREMIERE DATE UP TO A FRIDAY. THE ONE DAY I CANNOT BE THERE ON TIME. LITERALLY FUCK Y'ALL. Also idk why but some of the people that are potential cast mates annoy me. I hate that they annoy me and i know it's wrong but like, it's their names and the way they talk and how close they are that just... irk me. This is gonna sound so awful when these confessionals get released.
Tumblr media
Whew! So I probably should've submitted by now but I keep forgetting. Anyways, so far my strategy is to not campaign too much. I figure most people are voting based off their friends, or based off who they think had the most convincing plea's. So if someone wasn't already gonna vote for me, they're not gonna change their mind just because i sent the link to a random VL and asked them to. If I see someone send a link I'll add on, "hey, vote for me too!" but I really don't think it's gonna make a huge difference. I really hope that people see me and know that I deserve this, and that they choose to vote me in.
Tumblr media
It's the last day!!! I'm so nervous!!! I hope I get in but I also don't wanna flop !!! I think I have a decent chance tho. So many names I don't know will allow me to get some new allies so that will be nice. Unless they all turn out to be snakes. Ugh. I'm hoping that if I do get in I'll have at least one friend. Maybe Keegan or Dom. Not sure how Zack will feel cause I haven't spoken to him since game wonder if he would be ally or target me from start???
Tumblr media
Oh man, I meant to send in one of these a few days ago right after the link was set up but work and life happened and I forgot oops.
Well, to start things off, I'm really hoping I got enough votes to make the top 10. I want my Second Chance! Plus my bestie Brett is also on the ballot! If we both get on we can power our way through the game together! First ever joint winners of Tumblr Survivor?
Other than Brett, I know Logan, Daisy, Ashley Sarah.... and.... Jevvon. I think that's it? I'm not exactly friends with any of them but having playing a bit with most of them I have an idea of how they're games are. I'd rather play with people I have some knowledge of rather than people I've never even heard of (sorry not sorry).
I'm not sure there's much else to say at this point. I put in a lot of effort, maybe not as much as I could have, but hopefully it pays off!
Tumblr media
Today is the day!! I've gotten to talk to several people on the ballot as we help each other get votes. I really look forward to knowing if I made it in and working with some of these people!!! I really should play more survivor so maybe this game will help me get back into that side of the org community!! Nervous but I think I have enough to do it.
Tumblr media
The more time that passes, i'm starting to think that maybe i didn't get cast for second chances. Truth be told, i'm not that popular and i'm sure the people that always talk will probably get voted in because they most likely made a bunch of email accounts and had their friends vote too, so i'm slowly losing hope on the fact that i got cast. To me, i'd rather expect not to be cast and then expect too much and get short changed. If the so called "annoying" people get cast and i'm not, then i would have dodged a bullet but i'd still like to play. I'm sorry i'm not that bitch, that's just not my style
Tumblr media
Voting Closure- Well voting has ended and my chances going in are pretty...pretty low. I did not campaign at all and I know most of these people played harder to get in. It would be a total miracle if I was in, I would be surprised if I was in because I did not campaign at all. I guess it depends on how you are perceived as. Thank you so much for reading this and hope to see you another day. =)
Tumblr media
i am filled w anxiety
Tumblr media
well im not getting cast so that's fun. but it was super fun and awesome to be considered!!! anyways buy How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful on iTunes.
Tumblr media
So the ballots have officially come to an end and now I wait. There are some people on the ballot I can 100% see myself trying to work with like Dom, Logan, Luke, etc. It doesnt appear to me that I have any enemies on the ballot, which is a huge plus... not to mention I have no rivalries with people because I havent played in 200 years. I think I have a far shot at getting a chance to come back... my name was first on the ballot which might help???? As long as there wasnt too much of a rigged system I shit be looking pretty to go in on Friday :)
Tumblr media
With voting over and the game beginning on Friday, I'm starting to get nervous I didn't get enough votes to make the season.
I'd love to be on the season and get another shot at taking the crown!!
Tumblr media
oh my god. okay so voting is over and all i can say is... i really hope i got voted in! i feel like a lot of the good people were on ballot 1 so idk if i'm like actually gonna get in.. a lot of irrelevants and people i never even heard of were on ballot 2 and i'm just like.. sis put me on ballot 2 so i have a better chance of getting voted in. but i still have hope!!! i campaigned my ass off so hopefully people who said they would vote for me actually did... i also hope i at least have some allies that get voted in with me so i'm not all alone!! ahh i'm stressed till friday... yall really stressin me out. but, let us pray. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (translation: I have no idea if I advertised enough or if people like me enough, and I'm hoping that my doubts are misplaced on both of those fronts. So I'm just kinda sitting here and... waiting. @Drew hmu with those leaks ;) ayy ;) how bout it ;) i'll bring you something from wawa next time we come to michigan ;) i dont think yall have wawas in michigan so ;) ayy)
Tumblr media
I'm not too confident as far as the result of the ballot goes, but I hope that I stood out enough to make people want to vote for me. Bodhi made a mock poll to see who people think got voted in and apparently I was doing well, so I think that's a good sign! Even if I don't get to play in Switzerland, campaigning was really fun (and stressful 😅) and I'm so grateful that the hosts considered me to return. So thanks to y'all and to everyone that voted for me! 💕 Cheers to the beginning of what will be a great season (that includes me in it)~
Tumblr media
I tried being a bit more strategic with my votes in the final half. I tried voting for only one player from each season, because I know how difficult the game will be if there's already a huge alliance of players that know each other. I keep trying to reassure myself that there's only a small chance that I won't be making it just based on the nature of the votes, so I really hope I get in!
Tumblr media
Brett is so annoying I hope we're both voted in so I can vote him off 2nd bc he isn't worthy enough to be a first boot
Tumblr media
Right now I'm a bit anxious on the cast reveal. I really don't know if I made the cut or not. BUT, to my surprise some people whom I've never even talked to ended up voting for me! I'm kind of surprised and thankful for that. So anyways I have some confidence I will be cast but who knows.
I'd like to give shout out to those who voted for me! THANKS Y'ALL! I hope all of your votes were enough to get me in!!
Tumblr media
Greetings there, cowboys. I've been listening to some cool music recently! And more importantly, I've been thinking out my strategy. I want people to think about me just the right amount at first, but then fade into the background. I want to be one of those people that on day one, people want to be the first to get to strategically, but then I want to float down that river until I crash into a goddamn beaver damn and get voted out in 7th place.
My social game is exactly what I want it to be. My pregaming hasn't been anything firm, but I've talked to a few people and planted seeds for future social connections. I'm not getting super close with anyone pregame, but I'm bonding with people over various portions of our identities. Oh, you're Jewish? Me too. Let's be friends. Oh, your name is spelled weirdly? Me too. Let's be friends and bond over lying about our names so that people don't misspell/mispronounce them when we order food. I've said that I refuse to play the same game twice, and that is still true, but I have to rely on my anyone-but-me if I want to succeed. I can't try ANYTHING strategic that people will be threatened by. I need to be very moderate, just empowering others to do what they want to do, and sticking in the background.
I've worked pretty hard to get on the season, so people are going to think of me as a threat, but my new goat personality might be enough that their fears will subside.
Tumblr media
i'm feeling decent about my chances of getting on. most people have told me they felt like i was a lock, and lowkey i just got announced to be in another org so i didnt campaign like at all. so it could go either way.
Tumblr media
The ballot is over and I feel like my chances going in is slim. Idk how many people voted for me and I feel like the most outcasted person since I don't know many of these people.... But let's see what will happen.

Episode 1 - Should We Just Call It A Day And Vote Out A Heterosexual Or What ~ Isaac
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay so right away I like trixie! Shes funny and I think we'll work well together. RTP is cool too since he likes HAIM and all HAIM lovers are great. Its fun having raf back on my tribe since we played before but I want to make new relationships so I dont want to just default to him. I also played with Eric before but voted him out so awk i hope he doesn't hold a grudge!! Im liking the tribe tho but hating this twist so much. Im using my idol at the first tribal FDSKJFSDH but then what if I get voted next since i dont have one.
Tumblr media
I'm really nervous because I don't know anyone that well on my tribe except for Logan, and they all seem to know each other. I'm gonna slap on a smile and pretend that I have confidence.
Tumblr media
WOW I JUST GOT IN AND IM EXCITED!!!!! well ummm I like to say ummm that everyone having idols is like ummm a bad thing because... if everyone plays it but one person.... they be idol'd out umm... yea. and plus... I have to like keep myself safe somehow...
Tumblr media
This tribe? Loving the concept. I want to work with Bryce because I know he's a sweet baby boy. He'll be loyal if I scoop him up first. Also, Trixie is as cracked as ever. I love that we all have idols. Guaranteed safety is a concept I love, but Trixie also told me she has an extra idol. Now, she might be lying since she said that Willow told her that one "houseguest" got an extra idol. This ain't Big Brother, and I would have preferred if she did not have an extra idol. She is straight up lying to me, but we'll see how it goes from here. Tonight is for forging bonds.
Tumblr media
Okay, this season is cute as heck! I am gonna give a full tribal first impression. Akito: My boy, we work well together and hopefully that can continue here. Isaac: Tends to get medevaced but I still adore this sweet boy and I look forward to playing with him again Jackson: Very social initially! I see myself in him, he also just started college and yadayada. Kelsey: We've exchanged like 4 messages but nice enough Linus:  A GOOD BEAN WHERE DID HE GO IN HOENN WE JUST DONT KNOW Mo: Pun Boy tm, but this is my turf so we're gonna have to share that title QuilLynn: Listen. She likes adore Delano. that's all I need Tyler: HE DOESNT LIKE MY PUNS that's all, see ya later 
Tumblr media
Love my tribe not doing much for the challenge! I got 9 of our 16 points so hope it shows that I'm trying. Although I only got 9 of a possible 18 possible points I could have gotten so yikes 50%! 
Tumblr media
im shocked we won immunity i didnt do anything sooooooOoo I was busy checking to see if i was pregnant jk
Tumblr media
People I've socialized with: 0 
Tumblr media
We meet again Raffy... We. Meet. Again.
Tumblr media
I love my tribe its so cute! Jackson is my friend from TS Ebola and I love him so much so yay! Mo is great I'm really glad Him me and Jackson could form a good group so early! Logan is great he guested a week in a BB i'm in and he was nice and said he's glad to be playing a game with me so woo! Tyler is nice so far but you can tell he is cocky af and I know even though he's new he's good at these games! I'm hoping we lose immunity, because I think I'd like to take tyler out asap, but if we win at least I know i'm not first boot. 
Tumblr media
So like yay for reward. Like winning a competition? A concept. Now, I feel like sending RTP to exile was the best decision since he was not going to participate in the challenge, but sending Tyler there was also an added bonus. I've played with Tyler before and I do not really trust him. I do not want him to make merge or be on the same tribe as him. So like, he can go sooner rather than later. Finally, me vs. Mo? We love a hero/villain dynamic. :) 
Tumblr media
We lost the reward challenge, it would of been nice to go to exile and date someone on the other tribe. We would of some funnnnnnn like bring out the margarita bring out the nachos and quesadilla with guacamole. Because it's about to get HOT in here!
Tumblr media
ok so my tribe is cool except trixie...they are annoying...im over it...and i got to go to exile because im gonna be at a wedding....lol take that! 
Tumblr media
so... we lost. yep. hoping to kill an inactive, hoping to not die. that's all
Tumblr media
We won! Loving the concept! Being safe is such an icon and Willow is such an icon. Anyways, I plan on working with Bryce, Trixie, and Richie because they seem like nice people. Literally nothing else to say because no gameplay yet.
Tumblr media
Oh god.... oh god no..... this is bad this is really bad
Tumblr media
im trying to get richie to showmance me and then we can later on down the road suddenly find out we're cousins and i think that'd be pretty funny. also i love willow she is so sweet and I hope she has a fun time hosting
Tumblr media
I'm literally so fucking gay and I just want a showmance like ???? I get here and the only people who I can legally attempt to seduce are Tyler and Mo? So obviously I pick Tyler because Australians are hot and Tyler looks hot and that's fun. So I was like "lol let's vote out a str8 yeah" and then Willow descended from the heavens on her hoverboard and was like "he str8 scum" and I can't believe I'm about to get voted out because I slandered heterosexuals.
Tumblr media
Guess who might be using their Jordan Pines idol! THIS GUY!!!!!!!!!!
Tumblr media
Yay my tribe won immunity. Queens! I just hope that we can keep winning because I haven't talked to anyone. God I need a better social game.

" it will have juice and im living for juice" - Tyler 2k17 Heyo im alive! I was sent off to exile this round... And i came back with an Australian Super Idol! I was given the option to mutiny my tribe, but its a no from me, i tried convincing Ryan to come over but he has some sense in him so he didn't :(. The idol hunt was really intense, there was about 4 different clues leading other clues. It was an adventure and a half. So at 6am i found it! (With no sleep cause sleep is for the weak). Im not telling anyone about the advantage cause.... everyone's a ho. This whole tribal situation is very complicated with all the idols going around. I expect me to be a target this round so im 100% playing an idol considering i have two! I feel like if we just get 3 or 4 people to vote one person who won’t expect it we’ll be good it's hard because you want the vote to be unanimous so everyone feels included but this twist means we have to blindside someone every time Which means we might have to tell the person we vote for a name Yeah its going to be difficult But I bet the person getting the most votes will play an idol so if we just do our own little thing we should be good - My thoughts atm, also sent that to Jackson But now i think I'm going to vote for someone who would never guess that anyone else would vote for them, get rid of a juicy target while i can. Not sure if my vote will have any impact but it will have juice and im living for juice ;). No ones really chatting to me and im assuming most people will play their idols... so #YoloSwag
Tumblr media
Yay we won reward!!! Happy to start off on a good note. Sad tho that regan striked. Hope she starts trying more. But I guess it would be nice to have an inactive to vote if we lost a challenge. Trying to socialize with 8 other people is hard but I think I'm doing alright so I hope I've made no enemies.

Hi there~! I'm Kelsey Valentana Mikaelson, coming to you live and IN full HD colour~! And, what else, it's time for a tribal! Going into the tribal, I was kind of groaning since I was fully expecting to be targeted but alas; I don't think it's going to be me! Now, don't get me wrong, I get that "as soon as you think you're safe, you're GONE!" and all that, but the drama doesn't seem to be circulating around me on tonight, and it's a welcome change! I think, for the most part, people are more set on letting Isaac get the boot tonight, which...eh. I tried throwing Linus' name out there but it seemed to get a bad reaction. Oh well. I still don't want to see Isaac Thunderf*ck go tonight however and this idol twist is very well placed to prevent that. I told Isaac he might receive votes tonight but, for the main part, it's between Linus and Tyler. I think Isaac really genuinely trusts me but I can't tell him he's the majority because...well, I'm actually being SPOKEN to! It's such a weird thing to happen to me, usually I have to do all the bone bashing for myself, but people are actually coming to ME and telling me options, it's uncanny! I don't want there to be any chance AT all of me losing those resources. Speaking of resources, if I had to guess who's puppermaster-ing at this point, I'd look over at lil' Jackson over there. I thought it was sweet and romantic that he wanted to talk to me about the vote and, don't get me wrong, it makes me feel swell but NOT swell enough to realize that the people he suggested to me were the very names everyone else seemed to have "heard" and not came up with themselves. For the most part,  I think my best option is just not...being Krazy Kels and blasting it, but sweaty, I'm only going to be calling Ms. Jackson if she nasty, you feel me? All in all, I'm feeling rather confident about tonight. Either Isaac goes and everyone feels comfortable with telling me plans; Tyler goes who's just...slimey. Or Linus goes! Who's basically just here for the food, I feel. Anyways, say goodbye to Derrick or Kim Chi. And THAT'S all there is to it~! Christmas was ROBBED! -Kelsey V Mikaelson

Hi I'm Jackson and this is my first Confessional. Okay so yeah about this tribe. Not sure how I feel. It's been helpful not having a One World twist (meaning I don't have an obligation to get to know the other tribe) but I haven't made a lot of connections here so it's kind of a wash. Quillynn is my babe and I hope people don't figure out how close we are (because I'm not turning on her anytime soon, that's for sure). Mo quickly pulled us in for an alliance, and while I like him, he's gotten a little attached to Tyler which is kinda messy. Akito is kind of strange but she's nice, and I think not many people talk to her so she's looking to work with me. I get paranoid vibes from Logan but otherwise I like him. Linus, Isaac and Kelsey have been barely active at all, which is problematic but it kind of makes me want them to stay over someone like Tyler (who I think is kind of a big threat). Either way we lost both challenges so that kinda sucks, although at least it means my friend Trixie is safe. Not that I don't want the other tribe to go to tribal at least once though. Any opportunity to finally vote Ryan M. out should be taken, as the students of Kvaloya learned the hard way. Oh by the way I hate this idol twist. I mean I'm probably gonna like it later on in the game when I want to vote out someone who's already used theirs, but for now, it sucks. The people I'm working with want to split the votes between Tyler and Isaac in case one of them idols, but I'm worried something could go wrong. Also it'd be awkward if Isaac went home and Tyler basically knew that he was the backup in case Isaac idoled (which is the truth of the situation, since Mo doesn't want Tyler out even though me and Q do). Okay I'm trying to get this done cause my friend wants to go to dinner so let's  end this here and hope I don't get voted out with like one vote lol
Tumblr media
(Late)
okay yoooooo I’m here I’m still recovering from the trauma of my last game so my heart is still healing and I’m not running on full steam at the moment so i haven’t really talked to anyone theres no one on this tribe that i really have clicked with which kinda sucks but its mostly my fault for not speaking to anyone but also no one reached out to me either so they all suck too!!!! we won the first reward and immunity so things are looking good hopefully we can maintain this momentum so that i have time to build some relationships before things set off!

And for the last one: 146 “Are you okay?” - w/ Vanmoo
200 Writing Prompts
Evan didn’t like the fact that Moo could read emotions as easily as he could sometimes. He was like a superhero in that regard, always being able to know how even the most stoic of people felt. From word choice, engagement levels and tone he could unravel people like a book. So, when it was just Evan and Brock left in the call, the former knew he was going to be mothered.
“Are you okay?” He asked, like he always asked first. Evan never really understood why he did. Both parties knew how he felt, so the question itself felt redundant.
“No.”
“You want to talk about it?” It was always an option. Brock was very respectful of it, usually dropping the topic after one push. But Evan often needed someone to talk to, especially from a computer screen. He didn’t anyone judging him because of his emotions.
“It’s just … one of those moods I get sometimes. When I think about all the guys and how they are happy with their girlfriends and just …” Brock was the first one Vanoss had met, and the only one of his friends who knew he was gay. He trusted him.
“It was Mini’s video with Sami, wasn’t it? That’s what prompted this?”
“Yeah. It’s just hard hearing ‘I’m straight, I’m straight, I’m straight.’ Over and over again by different faces. And it hurts, every time. You just don’t know how that feels.” He spun around in his chair, staring at the ceiling as the first tears began to stream down his cheeks.
“Evan, I know it hurts. I … don’t want to say I understand because I don’t.”
“No, you don’t know what it’s like. How it feels to fall in love with your best friend and look them in the eyes to see that they’ll never see you as anything more. That they will never see you like you see them. And being able to pretend that everything’s fine.” There was a small silence on the other side of the screen.
“I …” Brock choked out, trying to figure out the right words to say. “I don’t know how to help. I wish I was there with you, so that you had a body to lean on. I’ve never been what you’ve been through. I think the best person to help you is someone who’s been there, done that, and starred in the movie. You know what I mean?”
“Yeah.”
“You’ll get over that crush on Craig one day.”
“I know. Just not anytime soon. I’m working on it though.”
“That’s good. I know you are.”
“Thanks, Brock.” Evan forced himself to wear a weak smile, even if nobody saw him.
“Anytime.” He backed out of the call, making sure he closed Discord before he did anything else. He had made that mistake more than once before.
“I’m not getting over it.” Evan muttered, looking over the various smiling photos of his friends resting on the desk behind him. “I never got over it the first time with you, Brock. I said that I got over Tyler and Anthony and Jonathan when I didn’t mean it. I lied about moving on from David and Lui and Ryan. Smitty and Luke and Brian have never left my mind. Marcel and Scotty and John and …” He laughed at himself. “I’m in love with all my friends. And none of them will ever love me back. I’m lying to myself saying it will ever get better. It never does.”
Evan didn’t say another word. He wiped the tears from the eyes, rubbing the ones that escaped into his skin. He scooted his chair over the corner, picking up his guitar from the stand. Grabbing a pick from the box on his desk, he began to play.
There’s a song that I loveThat you once played for meIt had all the right chordsAnd a sweet melody
There was no one song. It was the songs Mini played pre-stream that he never failed to miss. The covers Nogla had sung that had long been lost on his channel that he had saved on a playlist. The fan made tracks Delirious loved to showcase and Vanoss hated to admit they were some of his favorites too. The songs at the end of Kryoz’s, Basically’s, Wildcat’s and everyone’s videos that he had stored in a playlist.
Now they’ve all been erasedOn my music machine
And it’s all because of youI’ve got a list of songs I can’t listen to
Evan sang all his emotions through each note. Every chord was a silent love letter to all the boys who ever broken his heart that it wasn’t big enough to hold all the pieces. He tried to let out all the years of stuff he had left to build up inside him with 3 minutes and 26 seconds.
And I wish the music didn’t play forever‘Cause I’m feeling like a broken record
Evan kept singing for what felt like hours. Nothing helped. He still sat there, a Canadian with a guitar and a forever broken heart.
