Friends Forever is probably one of the most heart-warming episodes of the series and would've fitted better as a finale then Toys.

YouTube keeps annoying me thanks to V3, so beware 480p screenshots from a (luckily, widescreen) DVD rip from the 2000s.

It's a new day in LazyTown, and that means a new move for Sportacus. But this day calls for a harder move - pushup twist. He decides to attempt it, and he succeeds!

I swear, if you cannot guess how he was able to do it- THE CLUE IS IN THE IMAGE!! Well, if you can't, you weird, bruh. Anyways, in the new Sports Park, Stephanie is finishing off her painting of the sign. She yells for her friends to check it out.

She tells them what it is, all the kids are literally standing right in front of it and yet Pixel still needs his binoculars. But, it's reasonable as he's actually looking at all the games. Ziggy questions her setting up the field, and she says she did, of course, since they're friends forever. They all put their hands together, and on 3 and yell 'FRIENDS FOREVER!' Stephanie decides to show them all the games - Hit the Can.

Swinging it around like a cowboy, Stephanie gets a score of 50! Ziggy yells out 'This is so cool!', startling Robbie who's having a power nap. So he goes to check out what's happening, and currently, Stephanie is attempting to do the power slammer.

But it is way too heavy and she is toppling over. And here comes what might be the most epic rescue of season two - Sportacus does a few flippity floppities to the sport park, swings into a cool handstand to LIFT the paint off the wagon, and kicks it back so Stephanie lands safely.

Sportacus lifts the hammer to see how heavy it was, and it really was heavy. So he decides to give them Sportscandy as they might need it later. Foreshadowing. Stephanie tells Sportacus this is their Sports Park, Stingy says it's his, Pixel says it's THEIRS, and they go back and fourth until Stingy brings out his menacingly deep voice. XD. Jodi is HILARIOUS! Stephanie shows him the Sports Park & one game captivates him most - Hand Walker. He tries it, of course, and he does it! Ziggy is pretty scared. Stephanie explains you go handle to handle with your hands only.

Once he finishes, Stephanie tells the kids about her idea of a contest and Stingy wants to win without even knowing the prize - which is a ticket to Sportacus' airship. Sportacus leaves after wishing them all good luck. Meanwhile, Robbie is for some reason blowing a blue balloon (again, for some reason), when he overhears Trixie wanting to go to the Sportship and questioning who'd want that.

Midway through - he gets an idea to go out there and let ALL the air out and he does a slightly useless demonstration with the balloon that sends it flying. It's disguise time and he disguises himself as a daredevil. The kids perform 'New Games Everyday'. At the end of the songs, the kids say they're having so much fun and nothing could be better then this. Here comes Robbie with his shaky cup.

Like with Stephanie, there's a contest - but this time is for whoever stays in the longest. Who does so gets a ticket to Sportacus' airship. Steph says she has one like that (but yours is REAL! Look at his excessively purple card.), and Robbie says he has ten. The kids get in the shaking cup, Stephanie asks 'Friends Forever??' but she is ignored.

She decides to sit on a bench. Sadly. And she takes off the photo of her and her friends. Meanwhile, Sportacus has left his ladder out, meaning Robbie can easily enter the airship. He throws away the fake tickets and keeps the real one, which I dislike, since there is no explanation for how he obtained it. Anyways, he climbs the ladder to the airship, and Sportacus flips over to him.

He asks who he is, and Robbie replies with 'a lucky winner'. He was reasonably expecting one of the kids, and Robbie shows him the ticket for proof. Now Sportacus is happy to have him. Robbie asks for soda, and he pulls out WATER.

Even funnier when Robbie literally gags, implying he has never drank water before and enjoyed it, meaning he doesn't drink it 99% of the time, but you need water to live.. Anyways, he asks for chocolate, and Sportacus pulls out an APPLE.

So he has the most healthy things you could ever consume. He even takes a tiny sip of water to be nice. Not very rotten in my eyes! Robbie asks him how he keeps the airship.. well.. in the air, and he pumps it up with air by jumping on this cool thing.

I thought it was one of the greatest parts of his airship when I was younger for some reasons - it's bouncy and he flips off it. Then he asks how he lets the air OUT - by pulling a lever.

Meanwhile in the shaking cup, the kids are getting dizzy and Stingy is upside down (LOL), and Stephanie is reluctant to save the kids - but she remembers their promise - FRIENDS FOREVER! Pixel tells her to turn it off by using the lever, but it falls off! In the airship, Robbie asks if there is anyone to save. Sportacus says the citizens of LazyTown are all safe, and they go back and forth and stay awkwardly and the crystal beeps & Robbie says 'YES' when Sportacus says someone is in trouble. LOL.

So he leaves Robbie to go look at the kids with the telescope. He leaves Robbie. Alone. In the airship. Unsupervised. Where he could easily release air from the airship.

Sportacus falls but he grabs on to something. Robbie decides to jump for it but the parachute doesn't work like it should've and he's just stuck hanging there. Literally.

Lolz. Meanwhile, Stephanie is rescuing the kids in a super duper cool way - using the HAND WALKER! She gets all the kids out one by one, telling them to grab her legs.

Sportacus loses grip of his telescope, and the kids notice it drop and they see Robbie and Sportacus in the air. They devise a cool plan to save him - Ziggy swings the can hitter and Sportacus grabs it, tying it to the airship door. Even more daring then Robbie, he JUMPS OFF whatever he was holding onto and tries to enter the airship by climbing the rope.

But one side of it unties, and Sportacus is left dangling in the air. Swinging from the left (take it back, now y'all, one hop this time, right foot, let's stomp..) to the right!

He attempts to climb up but is not nearly as strong to. Stephanie remembers that Sportacus gave her some spare Sports Candy. They devise a plan to get it to him by using the Power Slammer - they put it on the lower side of the thing you're supposed to hit. Stephanie hits it as hard as she possibly can, and it flies in the air and Sportacus swiftly catches it and bites it ONCE.

And whatcha know, he's strong enough to climb up the rope and Enter The Airship (the greatest Magnus Scheving movie of them all..). The airship is gonna crash as the air supply is becoming lower and lower, and luckily Sportacus jumps into the airship and he cranks the lever as hard as he can.

Robbie is sooo clooosee to getting the pole in the town hall stuck up his posterior, but luckily, he has cranked the lever enough and it doesn't crash. So it goes back to being an airship, he jumps on the bubble a few times. He then drives the airship back in the air.

Robbie's glad he made it out safe and happy - but not for long! The useless parachute has ripped off the door, and he falls thousands of feet.. and lands in the shaking cup. How realistic.

Sportacus attempts to tip Robbie out of the shaking cup but it is way too shaky, so he grabs the lever and fixes it. It is finally revealed it's Robbie, and he fibs about the shaking cup being fun. So Stephanie shakes it a bit more.

Sportacus thanks the kids for saving him, they do the 'shout-123' thingy and perform Bing Bang! During the song, in an attempt to go back to the lair, Robbie gets stuck to the ceiling.

Cheap parachute.

10/10 - Moral: Never turn back on your friends. Amazing rescues too.

Hello!! How are you doing? How about 8, 14, and 17 for the ask game?

I also hope you have a lovely day or night 🖤🖤

Hiii!

So happy to see you here! :D I'm doing as good as I can, I guess, my rabbits have been draining my energy lately. ^^' How have you been as well? I hope things got better since the last time we interacted. :(

I suppose this is from the "Distracting asks" game, right? Let me know if I am wrong and I will do a new post. eheh

Anyway, here I go!

"8. Name something you are looking forward to?"

I got this question from another mutual first but let me past it here as well. :P "Right now I am really looking forward to watch the next episodes of House of The Dragon, I know this is a really boring answer to this question but the truth is that I have a very boring life. xD It's getting deeply criticized because of all the changes HBO is making and I understand the frustration but I can't really help my impatience for more. ^^'"

"14. Favorite game?"

I am a Pokémon lover as you probably already noticed. eheh My favourite game is indeed the Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal version! I am a bit biased because these hold very sweet memories and a feeling of nostalgia for me but they never really stopped being my favourites! I've been dreaming about a Switch remake for a while, I'd go completely crazy for it. >.<

"17. Tell us about your favorite character?"

I am not sure if this is about canon characters or my own characters so I am sorry if I am wrong. ^^' I can't decide between my favourite anime character and my favourite TV show one. eheh My favourite anime character is Re-L, from Ergo Proxy! She is a very interesting character to me, some find her really annoying but I really love her development, how she starts to show her frustration towards the system she is basically forced to serve once she is forced to step out of it, into the outside world, seeing her finally detaching herself from such beliefs and system to finally stop being just another paw and grow as an individual is just peak fiction to me.

As for my favourite TV show character...it is probably Michonne? I won't lie, the first thing that attracted me to her character is how badass she was and how she presented herself, I actually really miss that Michonne and her pet walkers. eheh In my opinion she is wise and kind, she does what she has to do to survive but her kindness will always show when needed, she has suffered so much, even lost a child, but she still manages to stay calm under pressure, I love how she is kind but so cold at the same time. She is also caring, the kids seem to love and miss her, she has so much good in her but is forced to hide it in such a devasting and dangerous world where only the strongest and smartest survive. Really tragic. Fun fact: The first time I watched TWD I only started to really enjoy the show when she showed up, which is ironic, considering TWD became my favourite show ever.

Thank you so much for passing by and for sending some asks, I truly appreciate it and love answering these! ♥

Ok, story time

So recently, I was shopping on the Target website, and I made a PHENOMENAL find…

This tea party book I had when I was a kid??

I absolutely ADORED this book, read it over and over again until the pages came loose from the cover, and my grandma and I had a bunch of tea parties together and we made all kinds of things from the book 🥺 Very good memories… I hadn’t read it in years since I lost my copy, but I never forgot all the good times I had with this book

So obviously, I wasn’t gonna pass up the opportunity to buy it… I thought it was maybe out of print or something, but no?? It was just?? Available to buy on Target dot com??

And then it got here, and I just?? Oh my gosh?? My CHILDHOOD???? 🥺🥺

We made these!!

We made them with flower stickers 😊 I remember that tea party being not as much fun as the others cuz there were bees, lol

And we made these!!

My grandma’s had the colors of her favorite team 😊

And we made these!!

Though we changed the recipe a bit- left out the butter and the pecans, specifically used cinnamon raisin bread iirc, and strawberry cream cheese! They were super good 😋 The flavors complement each other really well

And we also made this 👀

We made it with apple cider mix instead cuz I didn’t like tea… so much sugary goodness, lol :p And it was really good! While I still don’t really like tea by itself, I do like it mixed with other drinks (pomegranate lemonade, and of course boba) so maybe I actually would like this if it was made with actual tea… might have to try that sometime 🤔

It was really fun being able to relive my childhood… I’d love to make some of this stuff again 😊

But there was one thing that really threw me for a loop…

The recipe for flute cookies

Must be some sort of weird Mandela effect going on, because I specifically remember the recipe saying that Lorna Doone shortbread cookies would be the right shape… in fact, I specifically remember it being how I learned about the existence of Lorna Doone cookies in the first place, and I don’t remember even seeing them in person until years after I read the book

Maybe this is a newer edition and that part of the recipe was removed, since those cookies don’t come in flute shapes anymore? But I looked at the back of the book, and nope, this is the original edition

And what’s even weirder, Lorna Doone cookies have been around since the 20s, and they’ve NEVER come in flute shapes…

also apparently they’re not actual shortbread cuz they don’t contain butter, and there was some kind of lawsuit about it?? So that was interesting to learn, lol

So where on earth did this elaborate false memory come from?? It had to originate from somewhere… maybe there was a different recipe from an American Girl book or magazine, I really enjoyed those at that age 🤔 It’s just so weird… also why did I never realize until I got this new copy that you’re probably supposed to use this kind of cookie, lol

like it literally never occurred to me XD

So that was a really fun trip down memory lane… with an unexpected mystery twist 👀 Seriously, it’s such a lovely book

#emilie barnes #let’s have a tea party #food #recipe #childhood #long post #i don’t think I’ve ever had lorna doone cookies actually 🤔#walkers is probably better anyway XD #if you want the real shortbread experience lol

Negan’s POV

“God DAMN it’s been SO long since I’ve been able to let out some steam.”

“Who the hell was that?” asked one of the four soldiers behind me.

We backed up and hid behind a wall, I peeked my head over to see some random fucking guy walking up to the gas station next to us. I counted a dozen walkers, he can’t be serious, I thought to myself. He took off the backpack he was wearing and to my surprise, he didn’t grab the pistol by his hip, instead reaching behind him to grab a machete that was hooked onto his back.

“Now, who’s first.” the guy said, walking up to the walkers.

Two of them walked up to him side by side and he swung his machete, beheading two of the fuckers at once, damn he’s good.

“Oh come on, you guys can do better.” he teased, inching closer to another three.

They were decently spaced out, walking in a single file line, cars on their sides making their path narrow. He shoved his machete into the first one's stomach, pushing him back until his machete hit all three. The walker at the front tried to grab him, flinging its arms out at his face. I was about to go help the poor son of a bitch until I saw him cut both of it’s arms off in seconds, swinging his machete once again, this time connecting with its head. Whoever this guy is, he’s fucking good. I was considering taking him in, seeing if he could help the sanctuary.

“Damn, sucks for you.” he said sarcastically, coaxing a small chuckle to leave my lips, now this is the kind of person I want around me.

He shoved his machete through the second one's skull, piercing it and getting the third one as well. Seven left.

One was trapped in a car, another trapped underneath one, the other five in a group a few feet in front of him.

“Come on you fuckers, come to daddy.” he joked. He’s a badass AND funny? Well fuck me.

He dropped his machete and I was about to yell out and call him a dumbass until he reached behind him, grabbing two medium sized knives strapped to the back of his belt. He approached the group, throwing one knife, he connected it with one of the fuckers heads, running up and tackling the second, his other knife going into it’s eye socket. He ripped out the knife and walked up to the other walker on the ground, taking the knife out, he ran up to the last three, simultaneously killing two of them. Turning to the third, he motioned him to come closer with his pointer finger. The walker was at biting distance and that’s when he shoved both of his knives into the sides of his head. He turned around and that’s when I saw the smirk on his face, blood covering it and his clothes, my pants tightened and my breathing got heavier, wait what the fuck? I’m not into- forget it.

He easily finished off the two remaining walkers and grabbed his machete off of the floor, walking over to his backpack and picking it up, I was tempted to walk out, try and get him to come back to camp with me.

“You gonna come out or...?” he said, glancing over in our direction with a grin, we all instantly jumped behind the wall. After a few moments I decided to walk out, taking my chances.

Your POV

You knew there was a group of guys behind that wall this whole time, how else would you have survived this long without picking up a few skills?

“I’m not going to wait forever ya know?” you finished, growing tired of them hiding. You were about to make your way over to them until a man walked out, fuck. You hadn’t seen any attractive men since this entire fucking apocalypse and there he was, salt and pepper beard, slick black hair, a black jacket and baseball bat wrapped with wire, a complete fucking dilf. Attractive AND dangerous? Fuck me.

“Don’t mean you any harm, was just walking through here until I saw you fuck UP those sons of bitches.” a foul mouth too? Damn, I guess some good things do come out of the apocalypse.

“Right... anything else you need?”

“People, honestly, you got a camp or something?” he asked, testing you.

“No, I don’t have a camp, I also know there are four other guys behind that wall so you have a camp.” he was about to open his mouth to speak but you cut him off, “Don’t worry, I couldn’t care less if you have a camp or not, I’ll just be going on my merry way.”

“Wait!” he urged, turning you back around.

“You need something, daddy?” you joked, not realizing the power behind your word until after you said it, a slight blush threatening to flash across your face.

He smirked and his eyes grew darker, “Actually, I do. I want you to come back to my camp, I need tough sons of bitches like you,” he admitted.

Wait, he smirked?? He doesn’t look gay to me at all, I mean he looks like he can probably fuck whoever he want’s but he definitely does not swing that way, he was probably just laughing at my joke, yeah, that.

“I’ve always been solo, what makes you think I want to join up with you guys?” you asked, already considering it just because of this perfect vessel in front of you.

“Can’t be solo forever, eventually you’re going to need some help. Plus, we got food, running water and electricity, clothes, anything you could ask for.”

“Electricity? As in I can shave my pubes after however many fucking years? Along with this ridiculously unfashioned beard?” you asked, perking up.

He chuckled, “Would I ever fucking lie to you?”

You chuckled to that in return, damn a sense of humor too? Who the hell is this guy?

“I’m Y/N, you?”

“Negan, and this here is my baby, Lucille,” he said, swinging the bat around.

“Oh god, you were definitely one of those guys who named his car some kind of name before all of this weren’t you?” you asked with a jokingly disgusted face.

He full body laughed at that, resulting in you letting out a small chuckle as well, “Something like that, so, you wanna join up with me?” he asked, wiggling his eyebrows.

“Fuck it, why not,” you responded with a smile, him giving you one in return.

You both made your way over to the other men, introducing yourself and them doing the same, you already forgot their names except for the one who looked important, Simon. They had a truck a few hundred feet down the road, “What were you guys doing out here anyways?” you asked.

“We came to this gas station looking for some gas, but from what it looks like, there’s nothing left.” Simon replied.

You nodded in acknowledgement, hopping on the back of the truck while the rest got in, Negan in the driver's seat with Simon next to him, you had a feeling he was his right hand man.

After about an hour on the road, you reached a huge factory, fences with walkers hung up on them, smart, keeps the rest away. After a whistle from Negan, the gates were opened by two men, driving past them you saw they were fully armed, damn, this place is fortified.

Parking in front of what seemed like the front entrance, you all got out and Negan motioned for you to come over to him. Walking into the building, you noticed a bunch of stalls and what seemed like people selling stuff, “On the first level, we have the point system, they sell what they have for other people in need and get points to buy stuff for themselves.”

“Seems a bit flawed but it’s better than nothing I guess.” you shrugged.

Walking past the hundreds of people, you noticed they all basically got on their knees as he walked past them, “What are you? God?” you joked.

He smirked, “To these people? Fuck yeah I am.”

Chuckling, you made your way up to the second floor with him, noticing long hallways with multiple doors.

“Up here the point system doesn’t exist, it’s where all the soldiers sleep, eat, and probably fuck, no points necessary.”

“Damn, sign me the fuck up.”

“Why else do you think you’re here smartass?” he nudged your shoulder.

“Fuck off, where are we going?” you asked, nudging him back.

“To your room, so you can settle in and cut those pubes that you were talking about.”

You laughed, continuing on with him. He stopped at the end of the hallway and opened a door, a huge room that looked nice as fuck came into view, “There’s no way this is mine.” you said in disbelief.

“This one is mine, but yours is similar, come here.” he said, walking over to another door a bit further down the hall. He opened the door and you saw a room that was barely decorated, all of the essentials in place.

“Damn, last time I had a place this nice was in my dreams a few months ago.”

He chuckled and walked you over to the bathroom, you noticed a shower with a razor on the counter, along with some shampoo and body wash.

“I would normally tell you to not take too long with the hot water, I have a feeling you’re gonna go and stay as long as you fucking want anyway, so go ahead and take your shower and shave, I’ll be waiting in the main room.” he said, walking out and closing the door behind him. Wasn’t he the leader of this place? Does he really have the time to wait on me?

You stripped down, turning on the shower and getting in. Holy shit the water felt amazing, you didn’t even wash yourself for a few minutes, simply enjoying the amazingly warm water before eventually washing yourself thoroughly. Getting out of the shower you felt refreshed, the best feeling you have had in the past six, seven years?

Grabbing the razor from the countertop along with the shaving cream, you shaved off all of your pubes, already feeling so much better. You didn’t want to get rid of your beard, it actually suited you very well, it just needed a trim and size-up. Grabbing the electronic clipper, you trimmed your beard about an inch, it not being too long anyways, and lined up your cheeks, cutting the area around your ear as well. Learning how to cut hair from your friend before all of this started, it helped out a lot. Trimming your hair down as well and shortening the sides, you looked like a new man. Probably ten times more attractive as well, your face finally shining.

Wrapping the towel around your waist since there weren’t any clothes inside the bathroom, you walked out and were met with Negan laying on the bed, Lucille perched up against the wall.

Negan’s POV

Why the hell did I get hard earlier? And why the fuck can’t I stop looking at him? So many questions were going through my head as I was laying on the bed waiting for Y/N. He was taking a while but I know shaving is a pain in the ass. I heard the bathroom door open and I was met with Y/N in nothing but a towel. Fucking shit he is sexy as hell. I could finally see his face clearly, beard and hair trimmed down, was he a fucking model before all this shit? His body was covered in a few scars, only serving to make him look more intimidating and sexy, his figure still lean, six pack abs, toned arms, legs I wanted to kiss and bite. I’ve never even considered fucking a dude, why the hell am I now? I was brought out of my head by Y/N clearing his throat, a smirk on his beautiful lips, “Got any clothes I can fit into?”

Your POV

You walked out and saw that Negan was checking you out, you fought your hardest to suppress your blush and instead put on a confident smirk, “Got any clothes I can fit into?” you asked, bringing him out of whatever he was thinking of. Without saying a word, he got up and stood in front of you, eyes darkened with lust, breathing heavy.

“Unfortunately we don’t, so you are going to have to fucking wait till we find some.” he slowly gravelled. Reaching out, he tugged at your towel, no fucking way this is happening.

“Negan, what-”

“Shhhhh, just let me see.” he cut you off with a whisper. Pulling your towel apart, it fell into the small space in between you two. You were already hard, the simple close proximity of him arousing you. He glanced down and you heard a low moan from his chest. He pushed you against the wall and buried his face in your throat.

“Why the fuck are you so goddamn hot, I never thought I would like another guy but the only thing I can think of around you is how fucking good your tight little ass will feel around my cock while I bend you over and fuck you.” he growled, nipping on the skin of your neck.

You felt your knees grow weak, mind going hazy from his dirty talk. He backed up and took off his jacket, his shirt following. There were multiple tattoos covering his skin, hair on his chest and stomach, if the world ending brought me to this moment, I wouldn’t change a thing. Before he could take off his belt, you grabbed his hand and stopped him, sucking on his neck and leaving a few hickeys, you removed his belt and pushed his pants down, leaving the underwear you got on your knees. Licking and sucking his cock through the thin fabric, his hand grabbing your hair, “Fuck that feels good.” he moaned.

You smiled and removed his underwear, his thick cock bouncing out, you licked your lips in anticipation, you knew he was going to burn just the right way. You teased him a bit longer, licking the tip and tasting his precum, fuck he tastes good. He pulled on your hair and you looked up at him, “Stop fucking teasing me and suck my goddamn cock.” he commanded. You smirked and took him into your throat, inching your way down until he bottomed out, another skill you kept, your cock sucking skills. You started bobbing your head up and down, licking the underside of his cock as you were going, feeling the vein throb. His grip on your hair got tighter and he started moaning, it was the sexiest thing you had ever heard. You wanted to taste him, pulling off, “Cum in my mouth daddy, let me taste you.” you huskily whispered, using the nickname from before. His eyes darkened even further if that was possible and you knew the name turned him on. Resuming your task, you started going faster, twisting your head as you sunk down on him, hollowing your cheeks. He started pumping his hips into your mouth, keeping his hold on your hair tight so you wouldn’t be able to escape. Pumping his hips a few more times, “Fuck I’m gonna cum down your throat, fuck yeah, you want my cum don’t you, my dirty little boy.” You hummed around him, the vibration triggering his release.

“Oh fuck yeah!” Feeling his cum coat your tongue, you eagerly swallowed it all down, his taste arousing you further, making precum leak from your tip.

He let out a huge sigh and took a moment to compose himself before grabbing you by the arms and tossing you on the bed. He reached into a cabinet next to the bed, pulling out a blindfold and some rope, “So, every room just has sex toys in them?” you jokingly asked. He chuckled darkly before responding, “Something like that.”

He climbed on the bed next to you, roughly grabbing your arms and tying them together, bringing them up to the bed frame. Putting the blindfold on you, he slowly backed up. You had never done this before and saying you were nervous was an understatement. You couldn’t see anything and barely heard any movement, you almost thought he just left you there until you felt his lips on your inner thigh, “Shit.” you hissed, the feeling intensified since you didn’t know it was coming. You felt him smirk against your thigh, his lips inching closer and closer to your throbbing cock, “You were made to suck cock, good little cock slut aren’t you? Well daddy is gonna be nice enough and return the favor.”

You felt his breath ghost against your cock, feeling his hand wrap around it and slowly start to stroke it, the simple movement threatening to make you bust, the tension already too high. You felt his lips wrap around the head and you let out an appreciative sigh, his warm mouth enveloping you. He bobbed his head up and down and you wished you could see him, just imagining him sucking you off made you squirm in place. He brushed his finger against your rim and you let out an involuntary moan, him ceasing his actions for a second, then returning to it with his finger rubbing and tapping your hole.

You started tensing up, “Fuck Negan, I’m gonna cum.” you moaned.

He instantly pulled away, “What the fu- Keep going!” you whined.

He chuckled, “You’re only cumming when daddy says you can.”

He lifted your legs up and balanced them on his shoulders, you could hear him spit down on his cock to lube it up, feeling the tip press against your rim. You could already feel how thick he was, moaning in anticipation.

He slowly started to push in, stretching your walls to their breaking point, “Oh fuck!” you shouted. You could feel the vibrations of his chuckle against you, your arms slightly hurting from the amount of force you were struggling against the rope with. Inching in, he finally bottomed out and you let out a loud moan, feeling completely and utterly full.

“Today is your lucky fucking day, daddy is gonna fill you up with two loads, and you’re going to take this one deep inside of you.” he grounded out, voice low and husky.

He pulled out almost all the way until nothing but the tip was left then rammed his cock inside of you, “Oh fuck, Negan!”

He started relentlessly pounding into you, leaving no room for you to even breathe. The breath being forced out of you with each thrust, you could hear the bed creaking with the force behind each one, the sounds of his cock entering and exiting your hole filling the room.

“Damn your ass is fucking perfect, warm and tight, perfect for my cock to fill and stuff with cum.” he growled, reaching down and nibbling on your ear. He was hitting your prostate with what seemed like pinpoint accuracy, each thrust bringing you closer to your release. His hips started stuttering and you could tell he was close. Wanting to return the dirty talk, “Fuck daddy, your cock feels so good inside of me, filling me up to the brim, cum inside me, breed me and make me yours.” you moaned in his ear, clenching the muscles in your ass to make it tighter.

He let out a guttural moan and slammed into you, the force behind it greater than before, sending you into your orgasm, shooting all over your chest. He pumped his hips a few more times and released, grunting your name into your ear. You could feel him shoot string after string of cum into you. Pulling out, there was a trail of cum following his cock, your ass completely filled. He licked a stripe up your chest, collecting all of the cum there and taking off your blindfold, he claimed your lips and shared your cum. You moaned, intertwining your tongues together and sharing the taste.

“Fuck you even taste perfect, how the fuck did I not find you before?” he asked rhetorically.

He unwrapped the rope from your hands and reached for the towel on the floor, cleaning up the cum dripping from your hole and both of your cocks, plopping down on the bed next to you. Both of you let out huge sighs, more than satiated with what just happened. You turned towards him to notice a soft look on his face, damn, this man is incredible, you thought, gazing at his handsome face.

He was wearing a huge smile, “What?” you asked with your own smile.

“Nothing, was just thinking that maybe the apocalypse isn’t so bad after all.”

Supernatural s3

It’s so unfair that the season that has Ruby AND Bela is so short :(((. I was done with it waaaay too quickly, and now I’m speed running through s4 xD (which, like the first time around, is Strong Mixed Feelings territory).

-My girl Ruby!!!! I was so happy to have her back, I kept grinning like a loon every time she was on screen. It’s quite interesting watching the 1.0 and 2.0 versions so close to each other, instead of as they air. I have... Thoughts, on whether Ruby as a double agent was something planned or that they decided as they went, but that’s for the s4 post. s3!Ruby really doesn’t come across as one (“I don’t believe in the devil” oh I wish sometimes xD, I love my nonbelievers), imo, but the beauty of such a device is that you can rationalize anything she does as devious if you want to xD

And it goes without saying that I love her interactions with Sam. THIS SHIP ISTG. I love how immediately ~attuned to her he is lol, his present and instinctive concern for her even if he tries to mask his interest as “practical”. And all the repeated times Sam’s conflicted between her and Dean -like when he deviates Dean shot (wasting one of the Colt’s bullets lmfao) or during the argument about the virgin sacrifice xD. And the “that’s my boy”/ “little fallen angel on your shoulder” quotes!!! Ruby 1.0 deserved to be railed by Sam too, smh.

My favourite episode of hers is “Jus in Bello” (which would be my fave of the season just by virtue of having both Bela and Ruby in the same episode lol. Not interacting, of course, the world as we know it wouldn’t have survived). I just love that she gets that final moment of I TOLD YOU SO to the brothers xD. I really like how she expands on the demonic lore of the show- I love, LOVE the detail about how all demons used to be humans, how they’re souls corrupted in hell. And that in her past life she was a witch (there was this really good fic in Spanish fandom about it... I need to hunt it down).

BTW, though I think her interactions with Dean in that episode are interesting, it really hammers home how much I hate him sometimes xD. Can you stop saying misogynistic slurs for TWO GODDAMN MINUTES, DEAN (and as we know from as early as this season, only HE can have demon/monster friends!! What a fucking hypocrite xD). I freaking love the moment in the finale when she viciously yells him about how she wishes she could see him in hell lmao (and how it foreshadows that when she shows sympathy later, it’s actually Lilith in disguise lmfao). I hate Dean gets the last word in their dynamic, tbqh. Until the s15 cameo, at least xDD

One thing that’s been bothering me xD: the French fries. Demons are vulnerable to salt, like other spirits, right? (and hey, look what a nice piece of foreshadowing that was). How does that translate to food lol. Because Ruby adores French fries, and they obviously contain salt. It’s like spicy food for humans? Or like pineapple? Inquiring minds etc. xD

-I still cannot believe Bela Talbot was only on the show for six episodes lmao. Her presence still lingers in the watchers’ heads so much?? Which is understandable because she’s Lead Girl Material if there was ever any lol. The care with which they styled her even?? You don’t do that for just any character lmao (I mean, just look at most of SPN’s female characters for comparison xD).

Her ship with Dean could’ve really been something, too -even if I hate Dean in it, I can’t deny it packs a punch, narrative-wise. I mean, the Batcat undertones alone!! The fake married undercover shenanigans!! And I think it’s really interesting that she’s such a blind spot for him; Dean’s unusually intuitive about people, but with Bela he takes everything at face value and she can fool him like no other (while, OTOH, is Sam who questions her facade and wants to see more). If he hadn’t been such an idiot (and such an asshole) he could’ve had a really powerful ship. Sucks to be him lol.

Anyway. Man, I love her. So much. I love how Gordon’s threats to kill her don’t work on her, and I love that the show basically said “Bela killing her abusive parents is good, actually” (I’m so tired of forgiveness narratives, you guys. This entire show is founded on revenge, so let me get my revenge fantasies in peace!!) xDD. And I love, LOVE that she withheld that truth from Dean, that she decided he wasn’t worth it. OTOH, you know, fuck the fans that got her written out, definitely; but on the other, I do love how her story ended (and that it was a clear "fuck you" to shitty fans). Doesn’t stop me for wanting to read and re-read (and maybe write!) even more “Bela escapes hell” fix-its, but still.

Also, very important question: what happened to her cat?? It’s the cat alright?? I’m going to headcanon that she left them with that cougar friend of hers lol.

-So. THE DEAL. Okay. Oof. I love this storyline, a lot. A loooot. I love the conflict it creates between the brothers (as long as there’s still conflict and Sam hasn’t yet started taking everything lying down I can enjoy that part of their narrative lol). I love Dean’s initial forced giddiness about “making the most out of his last year” and I love the moment Dean decides he does want to try to live because it makes the last few episodes all the most desperate and cruel (and hey, I’ve heard he only went to hell because the season was cut short due to a writers’ strike... if that’s true that’s so funny lmao).

My absolutely favourite part however? That you can FEEL Dean’s unvoiced resentment towards Sam. For Dean having to die for him, even if Sam never asked him to. He lashes out to Sam repeatedly through the season, but it really came to ahead in the dreamspace episode, where Dean confronts another version of himself that talks about how Sam was “dotted on” (the revisionism asldfkaf). This show is absolutely ruthless when it comes to showing you its characters’ ugly, unfair reactions to things and it’s my favourite thing evah.

Speaking of the dreamspace episode, OMFG. I loved both brothers there. Dean’s hallucination, seeing himself as a demon? And how he let out his anger about John?? Beautiful, truly (regarding John, I also loved their different reactions when it looked like his spirit had contacted them: Dean jumping on it and Sam detached skepticism). But my favourite part has to be when Sam uses the villain’s abusive father against him. Like. Damn. That was cold-blooded o.0

The second-to-last episode, when Sam tracked down that Frankenstein doctor to try and make Dean immortal was ABSOLUTELY HORRIFYING OMG. I loved that. I love that Sam wanted to use it for both them. It was some scary shit. I also love the scene where the crossroads demon questions whether Sam really wants to break the deal, I’m gathering it’s going to be nice foreshadowing later on in the show lol.

Anyway. I also found Dean’s death scene more impactful than Sam’s. Partially because of the horror of it, but mostly because I think at this type of scenes, Padalecki is better. Sam’s grief felt more real, Dean’s got me out of the scene (it’s the voice, I think. Sometimes Ackles’ voice takes me out of scenes, it sounds... forced).

I also really enjoyed how the time loop episode wrapped around this subplot. It managed to be both heartbreaking and mind-numbly hilarious lmfao. Like?? All the deaths?? Were so pathetic?? I tip my hat to Ackles because I don’t think most actors could carry plots like this half as well lmfao.

Sidenote, it’s always a trip to see The Trickster God knowing that fucker is Gabriel. Archangel “hey Mary do you accept God knocking you up” Gabriel. Which I guess isn’t exactly a thing in this show?? Since according to the wikia SPN Jesus was “just a man” (and let me tell you, I’m tickled pink by the fact that out of ALL mythological figures, specifically all CHRISTIAN mythological figures, the show decided to go “nah” on Jesus Christ. I mean, I guess he’d take away from Dean’s, Sam’s and Castiel’s resurrection narratives, but still. It’s so funny!!).

-Gordon Walker remains a superbly acted and fascinating character with extra racist nonsense alsdkfjasdf. But I can’t deny I loved seeing him as a vampire. He was terrifying. And I’m definitely shipping him with Kubrick, ouch xD

-The Ghostfacers episode is... something. As in, incredibly exploitative and homophobic and with an egregious case of BYG (and the first where I’d say it’s incontestable to claim the trope was used. s1 and s2 are muddy territory given the circumstances, IMO, but this one is 300% BYG), but so successfully manipulative my heart hurt for Corbett and Corbett x Ed still. Fuck them for that ngl. I do still enjoy how anti-Winchesters they all are though xD

-3x01 introduces the one nice marriage of hunters so far, between a black couple. The man dies in a gross, horrifying way within the episode ofc (because he was Mean to the the brothers duh). She makes it out alive, and since she doesn’t reappear in the show she gets to live. So for now black women have a sliiiiiightly better track record in SPN than track guys there: they get to appear in a few more episodes and be more fleshed out (Victor, Gordon), but as long as they’re only in one episode they get to live!! (Cassie, Tamara).

-Rufus and Bobby are exes, right? Right?? Probably still married in some state? You know that post about how when gay marriage was legalized across the USA there were a lot of issues because some couples had split and never bothered to divorce, since it was only legal in one place? That post was made for them. Pity Rufus is a black man, and as such has a limited number of allowed appearances before he’s killed off ¬¬

-I would’ve enjoyed Dean’s moments with Lisa and Ben more (it’s just so RIGHT that in this moment he’d want Ben to be his) if my knowledge of future spoilers didn’t perpetually have me in a state of “pls keep this guy away from kids” lol.

-They had Harmony’s actress (BTVS) and they made her a vampire!! The show’s hard on for the Buffyverse is a bit of a hit and miss but I can’t say I don’t relate xDD.

-I know Jensen Ackles can sing (in fact thanks to youtube I know a few of the actors can... is there a musical episode. Does this show have its own OMWF. I need to know). So why. WHY. Does he sound like that during “Dead or Alive”??? I actually like the scene but he sounds so off-key lmao.

-BTW, I found out that apparently Katie Cassidy and Lauren Cohan originally auditioned for each other’s roles añslkdfjasf. I can’t picture it. Ruby 1.0 is Ruby 1.0 and Bela is Bela xD. Although I’ve seen each playing roles that could meld with the other, just. Nope. Good choice on the casting there lol.

Hi, Ben! I hope you are feeling a bit better, or that things have at least calmed a bit! (I mean I still hope you’re feeling better, but it’s okay if you’re not yet, too. You know what I mean.)

Wow, Walker sounds…interesting… I remember watching the original series with my mom, because she liked several of the actors in it. I can’t recall much in the way of specific detail, but I’m pretty sure there was definitely a lot of probably-questionable-even-at-the-time cultural appropriation-type stuff going on for both Native American and Asian cultures. And I gotta say, when I think “who can I see replacing Chuck Norris in a role?” JarPad is never the first to come to mind… I’m not even sure why they felt they needed to reboot that series, anyway, given the potential to be highly problematic.

And I’ve never seen any Winx Club, but that show also sounds very…interesting… I don’t understand the general obsession with gritty reboots lately (which is also where I feel DC went wrong). Like, let shit be bright and colorful! The real world is dark enough right now. Also not really here for a plus-size character being the butt of jokes and pranks. We’re well past that sort of thing being okay (and was one of the things I loved most about the Ghostbusters reboot. Realistically built women, and not a single fat joke to be found.)

Omg, that snippet is so cute!!! I wish I could draw, too, or at least photoshop with anything approaching skill, because that visual is hysterical. XD I can just see poor Noah fighting the urge to pick up a Sharpie and write ‘Migraine #1’ and 'Migraine #2’ on Peter and Stiles’ t-shirts. XD (Although between theoretically attempting to look at confidential police files and Mel’s probable reaction to his presence, I suspect Peter is not in for the best afternoon. [As though his outfit weren’t torment enough. XD ])

Also, I love that idea of Stiles making Peter fight a duel for the right to date his dad. Like, just imagine Noah getting home just as they’re about to start, and then hearing an explanation, and just being like “…you know what, what the hell? Let’s see what you’ve got, Hale.”, but like totally giving Peter like his tie or his badge or something to wear as a favor. (He’s totally gonna date Peter either way, but Peter doesn’t need to know that yet.)

And I don’t know if it will help any, but if you feel the need for some fluff, I got the next chapter of IYWTD up finally, complete with only one bed, cuddling for warmth, a bit of hurt/comfort, and massive amounts of pining. ;D (And wow, yeah, that ship dynamic comic fits them so well. Although right now Peter is still stuck on the seesaw between “What is all this FEELINGS bullshit?!” and “I didn’t say STOP!" XD )

Anyway, I’m starting to ramble again. I hope that your day has been good, or at least decent overall, and that tomorrow is even better! Sending lots of good energy for whatever you need it for! Take care! *Hugs!*

Hey my friend, hope you’re doing okay lately and that work isn’t too crazy. <3

My mood today has been, *sigh* well, it hasn’t been great. I think it’s because I did my T-shot at 1 am last night and my hormones are everywhere at the moment while my levels readjust. Which would also explain my moodswings and anger management problems in the last week. I’m gonna resolve that by hopefully getting my boxing bag in tomorrow, though with the Dutch Postal service PostNL you never freaking know. Because of the extended lockdown delivery times have been insane lately. But yeah, there’s that.

I did manage to take the garbage out today, folded some more laundry, and put my groceries away. So there’s that too.

With Walker, idk if it helps or hurts that I’ve never seen the original and have nothing to compare it to. But it just felt really awkward to me because of the acting. (I mean the teenage daughter is a good actress, I liked her, but Jpad is very- off in this show) There’s only one episode out so far and I kinda want to give it another shot but it also just- meh. It didn’t feel that special to me.

As for Winx, or Fate: a Winx Saga, it’s- *groan + sigh* It’s not good. It’s not good writing (the dialogue is horrendous, like a 40 year old man trying to write teenagers), it’s not the best acting, although it’s not awful either. I think the writing and the whitewashing of several characters are the biggest problems. Also the plus sized character and the gay character are bullied and made fun of and urgh.

I personally also never had a problem with the whole girls are fairies and boys are specialists thing in the original show. Because to me, that automatically extends to gender and would include trans people of that gender. But I can see why they would update that. So that, I don’t have a problem with.

It’s just the writing that is horrendous and it’s almost like the people who made it have no idea who their target audience actually is and why people watched the original in the first place.

But yeah, I might “hate watch” another episode just to see if I can poke some fun at it, but we’ll see.

Right? I really like that little paragraph. I’m trying to get this chapter out soon, but I’m struggling a little with a few things and don’t know how to continue it. I’ll figure it out though.

And Noah totally would if he could XD He has an image to uphold but guarantee you that he’s thought about it.

Peter’s having a very bad, horrendous, not so good day so far. That I can guarantee you.

And yeah, I think that image is just really freaking cute. Kinda want to include that prompt into Welcome to the Family. XD It’s adorable.

I think I’m gonna check out the next chapter this weekend. I wanna be in a bit of the right headspace for it when I do read it. And not in my ‘everything sucks and I wanna punch a hole in the wall and break every bone in my hand’ kinda mood.

But I will def check it out soon. I’m sure it’s gonna be an awesome read, it always is <3

Hope you’re having a good day B, Mo and me are sending you good vibes and lots of hugs and snuggles <3

Quick Thoughts on The Royal Heir, Book 1 Chapter 1

• We're back! Hopefully with a better series this time, but I'm not going to keep my hopes too high.

• If my QTs are clogging up your dash, I recommend you block these particular tags: #trh quick thoughts, #trh qts, and optionally #long post.

• Much like my Book 3 QTs, I will be exploring as many playthroughs as I possibly can to see how each LI's route is being written. Last book, this experiment definitely helped me figure out that they were putting more effort into some characters and less into others, and I'd still like to keep an eye out for these things as much as possible.

• I feel this QT might be shorter than my usual (edit: joke's on me - it's not!! 🙈), mostly because the opening chapter itself is...pretty light, and is mostly meant for us to spend time and have fun with our chosen LI. Plus a tiny smidgen of buildup to the premise, which is having a child in Cordonia. But I do have a theory about the overall theme that I'm going to be expanding on towards the end of the chapter.

• Okay that's it for preliminary explanations, it's time for me to start with the chapter! XD

• Ooh. Oooooooh. This loading page now has tidbits about Cordonian society!! Interesting.

• Title: Happily Ever Afterwards

Alternative Title: Be Grateful We're Letting You Have This Much Sex For Free This Week, Because That's The Last Time It's Happening.

• I'm extremely offended they're making me wear that Pepto Bismol outfit again.

•

...thanks so much for reminding me you still don't care about Hana, PB! 🙄 Everyone else remains to be some version of "loyal", but Hana is still considered more for her skills than for her own steadfastness, even though she was the most hardcore-loyal of the four (SHE LEFT HER FREAKING HOME. HER FREAKING FAMILY. FOR YOU. While the other three were certainly loyal and honorable to the MC, they definitely didn't have to completely cut ties with their families to do right by the MC).

• The "fairytale" aesthetics of the frame story were what drew people into TRR in the first place, so it's not too surprising that the LIs and MC give a nod to the flagship series with a "once upon a time". If you're with Liam, it goes straight from "falling in love with the Prince" to what his relationship with her taught him, before the happily ever after. If you're with one of the other three LIs, it specifies that she came there for Liam but fell for someone else. Sounds a lot like Maxwell's book 😄 In Maxwell's playthrough, in fact, there is a reference to it when the MC calls him a "famous author".

•

(Screenshots organized as follows: 1 - Liam, 2 - Drake, 3 - Maxwell, 4 - Hana. Liam's and Hana's are my own. Drake's from @thefirstcourtesan, and Maxwell's from Kaitlyn Walker's YouTube channel).

The other interesting thing to note is that in Liam's playthrough, he leads the narration. While in everyone else's the MC is the one who steers it. One reason I can think of is that the narrative still treats this story as Liam's story as much as it is the MC's (if I'm right about the theme) - which...has honestly always been a sore point with the fanbase in TRR. That would depend on how us and our baby are now further involved with Cordonia in the story. Another factor for why she leads the narration...could be that essentially, the MC took initiative in the other three relationships, while in Liam's case it was he who took a more active role by proposing to her.

• The little story ends with this question from the MC:

Question: But what happens after Happily Ever After?

Answer: Mess. In Cordonia it's always mess.

• Cordonians (specifically the upper classes, since I don't know enough about the common populace to tell, since they're, yknow, practically invisible) are addicted to tea, apples and fucking shit up where they don't even need to.

• ANYWAY. What (literally) happens after 'happily ever after' is a tropical honeymoon on Liam's private island. In the case of the other three, he allows them access to the place and gives the staff instructions on making the stay comfortable for them.

• Now, since Liam owns the island and has probably visited it a could times, he shows more familiarity with it. He tells his wife that on previous trips the island had more rustic accommodations, but the villa they're now staying in was prepared recently. Additionally, the butler welcomes Hana, Maxwell and Drake as newcomers to the island, considering it's their first time. With Liam, there is an air of familiarity - he calls the butler by his name (Javier) and enquires about him and his wife (Mariana) - to show us perhaps how familiar he is with this holiday spot.

• Why the hell does everyone call Liam "Your Highness"? It's been two whole books since he became King, and the proper title for a monarch is "Your Majesty". How is it that Constantine gets to rake the MC over the coals for calling him Your Highness, yet Liam has to hear this from practically everyone. From Javier to freakin' Protocol-Monitor-Madeleine! The disrespect, I tell you!

• Okay so we're having a candlelit dinner by the ocean, and we get our first OOTD. Cute beach dress, has bright flowers and some crochet work on the bodice. I bought it because I couldn't bear to have Esther stay another minute in that Pepto Bismol of a dress.

• LOL @ all the LI responses to "this spot is right where the sharks are!"

• Tuna sashimi and pineapple aioli, huh? I have never had either so idek what that's supposed to taste like (someone on this writing team likes pineapples). I remember having to cut down on tuna during pregnancy, which meant no more Subway sandwiches since the tuna sub was the only one I liked at the time. IIRC most of my family were also cautioning me against pineapples and papaya during my first trimester!

• My gosh this butler doesn't waste much time jumping into assumptions huh?

• Also Javier, why is Cordonia's future so dependent on the well-being of my foetus even if I'm not ruling the country?

• Does Cordonia have sex ed? My money is on no. (esp in the Hana route).

• So there are two parts to the way the premise of wanting to have kids is built up in this sequence. In the first part, the LI impresses upon the MC the need to have children soon after the wedding. The second part addresses the urgency - the "why right now?" factor, and explores the LI's personal emotions towards having children. This bit also feels a bit like a follow-up to the Valtoria balcony scene in Chapter 15.

• The first part is pretty similar for Drake, Hana and Maxwell - all three of whom are now married to a Duchess and are aware that securing the duchy is important. They word it in their own distinctive styles, but the gist is pretty much the same. In Liam's case, since he is the king of the country, he speaks more about Cordonia and its tensions with neighbouring countries.

Take note of this because I'll be returning to this point later. (also who are the writers trying to convince about Cordonia's size. "Small kingdom" my ass).

• I'll be going by the LIs' personal reasons to have a baby now, one by one, along with a summary of their views on children in the Valtoria balcony scene last book (since this scene clearly references that diamond scene if you've bought it last book).

(Screenshots: Liam's and Hana's screenshots are mine, Drake's is from @thefirstcourtesan and Maxwell's is from Kaitlyn Walker's YouTube channel)

- Liam: Liam's love for family and need for children is well-known throughout the series. In Book 1, he's dropped hints about wanting to have a different kind of family dynamic from the one he'd experienced as a child, and in Book 2 there were multiple references to wanting to not be Constantine - both as a King and as a father. In the balcony scene in Book 3, Chapter 15, Liam tells us a number of things - about the value of having more heirs for succession, of him always dreaming of having at least 3 children, about Kenna, Cordonia's most legendary warrior queen which leads to an interesting factoid about how the rules of successions for both the throne and duchies are not gender-specific (he also cites Olivia and Penelope as being in line to inherit their duchies). In this sequence Liam undoubtedly has more to say about the political aspect of having an heir than the personal, but his statement about "someone missing" in their lives is of no surprise when he's been enthusiastic about kids for three books straight.

- Drake: Drake perhaps gets the lengthiest 'personal' bit of all, revolving around his eagerness to be a father and his own family history. This scene has Drake speaking of wanting a child with "your eyes and my hair", but most of all of Savannah and her little family, and wanting the happiness his sister is experiencing now. The writing often manages to tie Drake's thoughts about his future family with his past: in the Valtoria balcony scene, his memories of his father and his desire to bring up his own kids the way Jackson did are dominant in the conversation on children. He speaks at length about the absence of a proper 'home' so far in his life (stating that his room at the palace always felt like "a room in someone else's house") and how high on his priority list the prospect of having children is. The Valtoria scene shows him eager to have kids asap, and this scene builds up the same urgency. You're left in no doubt that he wants those kids now.

• Maxwell: Maxwell's route of this scene soundly pretty sudden, tbh. In his Valtoria scene, Maxwell expressed doubt and nervousness when it came to children, citing the example of Bartie ("I love palling around with little Bartie and everything, but if he bonks his head or something, I can just hand him back to Savannah. When it's your kid, you're the one people hand him to."). While this is referenced in TRH's dialogue when Maxwell jokes about forgetting diapers and baby socks - it's a pretty big jump from the man who didn't exactly feel ready to have children yet, and not enough work was done to justify that shift. This could be somewhat excused in the beginning of Book 3, when the narrative had just begun to treat him like an LI, but they've had an entire damn book and several months after to reflect on how to write him properly. That is...if they actually gave a damn.

- Hana: They don't even have the excuse of "relatively new LI" in Hana's case. Because she is the lone female LI married to a female MC, her scene should have been a lot more extensive and explored her urgency to have children so soon after their wedding, a whole lot more. There are tiny changes, like the one where she hints at the "logistical concerns" that come with two women considering a family, and where she speaks of giving her child the childhood she never had (which, frankly, is an extremely vague statement and could be applicable to more than one character in Cordonia). But there is urgency that, again, isn't properly explained in the scene. Even Hana's Valtoria scene doesn't have much that would explain why she would want a child barely weeks after her wedding. The Valtoria scene does have her outlining her dreams for the duchy (along with a joke about her enacting "Beauty and the Beast") and her happiness at the thought of being a mother (she maintains that out of the things expected of her, motherhood is the one she looked forward to). They could have spent some time thinking up a reason for why Hana would rush this, even before anything has happened, or outlined something personal and not ultra-generic. Both Maxwell and Hana deserved a lot better than this.

• Maxwell speaks about possibly forgetting diapers (PLS NO MAXWELL NO) and baby socks (um okay not as bad but depends on the climate), and one of the MC's dialogue options is to say..."diapers and socks are overrated". Guys your kid won't care how much fun you are when they have a bum rash.

• A-ha! Diamond scene. First-chapter diamond love scenes always come cheap in these series' (12 diamonds) and are usually quite a steal.

• ESTHER HAS NEW LINGERIE OMG I'M SO HAPPY I'D BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT FOR SO LOOOOONG 😭😭😭😭

• ...and it is also matches Liam's underwear. Maxwell's too 😅

• The scene is nice, there are variations between the ways the LIs work up their appetite before they finally roll in the...well, sand 😅 Maxwell has what they call an "ocean duel", Hana's fulfills her lifelong dream of carrying and spinning around her wife on a secluded beach, Drake chases the MC through the water...and Liam just enjoys being a huuuge tease, okay? 😂

• Oh God, why are they still using the old LoveHacks sexytimes music. That "DHUM-boom-ta-doom-DHUM" beat drives me nuts, and not in a good way. You have better music now, PB! Like the sexytimes tunes from RCD and PM. Use those!

• My gosh this entire group is quite horny for dominant duchesses, aren't they. Every last one of them. Each playthrough has these four gazing at the MC in wonder and telling her some variation of "I think you ordering me around is hot". Olivia could trample over them all with spiked heels and they would thank her!

• As always, when something suspicious happens, my dumbass MC goes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and never thinks about it again until shit actually goes down. This woman will never learn, will she.

• Anyway! We now move on to the rest of the honeymoon, summed up in three-four varying scenes per LI:

(Screenshots: Liam's and Hana's screenshots are mine, Drakes is HIMEME's YouTube channel, and Maxwell's is from Kaitlyn Walker's YouTube channel).

- Liam: Focused and dedicated. And insatiable as hell. Sex on a bed (SHOCKING!), sex after his wife points out what could be an apple constellation during stargazing (the MC effectively killed Liam's boner for Cordonia, I see), sex after having chocolate strawberries at a sunlit pond, sex again on a bed (Why is he getting four? 🤔). While the staff is still around somewhere on the island. This is a man with a mission.

- Maxwell: Fun and playful - kind of a "let's live wild and do daredevilry while we can!" vibe. In one Maxwell and the MC cliff dive into the ocean, debating over the wisdom of such risky adventuring when they may possibly be having a baby. In another, the MC watches, concerned, as Maxwell eats a raw squid appetizer. There is a nice callback to Maxwell's House sigil - the kraken - when he tells her that a squid would never hurt a fellow squid. The third shows them playing Strip Monopoly in the comfort of their bedroom.

- Hana: Adorable, caring and looking through every detail. Hana's three scenes involve her showing the MC the sights around the sunlit pond (which Hana and the MC lovingly call the "Hana Lee Honeymoon Itinerary"), watching the sunset under blankets, and this little scene of them choosing sperm donors for their baby:

It's a nice addition, but it still doesn't explain why they couldn't have waited a few more months. Nothing has happened yet in the timeline of the story, the women are (they believe) finally safe and happy, and while Javier seems to believe that babies born to a couple that consists of two women pop out of nowhere, I'm hoping the denizens of their duchy will have at least a little more common sense (this is Cordonia, so "hope" is the operative word).

- Drake: Langorous, relaxed and contented. Stargazing on the beach (I wonder whether this was a nod to the meteor shower scene in Book 1), whiskey on a patio/balcony/whatever in the afternoon, and eating roasted pork by the fire. Plenty of sex but also lots of outdoors, which means lots of the stuff Drake enjoys doing.

• Aaaaaand it's time for sexy scene 2! The couple are now relaxing in bed on the last day of their honeymoon, and the LI proposes a momento in the form of a sensual photoshoot (which comes with artwork of the LI in their underwear, posing for the MC) The male LIs pose with their hands at the back of their heads, smirking at the camera, while Hana strikes a coy pose, leaning against her hand. It's a quick, fun scene that's supposed to squeeze as much alone-time out of the couple as possible, because from here on the focus may shift to other things. Basically this chapter is meant to be one giant (but largely safe for readers) smutfest. I like the artwork - it's different and I guess meant to be a little more realistic than the usual full-page art in the books (like the engagement and wedding photos with your LIs last book), which is why I think it takes a little getting used to. I know it took me some time!

• Maxwell got an underwear upgrade too!

• We've now come to the end of our honeymoon, our bags packed and ready for our return to Cordonia. The chapter ends with us seeing a "familiar face", who could either be Liam (if you married someone else, and he doesn't show any expression) or an unspecified person (if you married Liam, and he looks ultra happy). Now that could either be related to some paparazzi-related stuff, if the flash of light was paparazzi-related, or it could be a fake-out and he's actually brought along the rest of the gang to surprise you. Idk and I don't want to speculate too much on this, mostly because something more interesting caught my eye.

• So that's it for my thoughts on the scenes themselves! On to the "general thoughts" section.

• General Thoughts and Potential Theories:

- As a first chapter for a new series that is still tied to an older one, it worked. It mirrors the light feel and sensibility of TRR's very first chapter, in that both chapters build an illusion of a fairytale-like place, with hints of the darkness within emerging the next chapter onwards (in this series though - since we're already familiar with Cordonia - the darkness is lightly hinted at this chapter itself). In a lot of ways I think we're going to see a lot of parallels between TRR and this new series.

- Unfortunately, one of those similarities also includes the imbalance in the writing for the LIs. Specifically with Maxwell and Hana. It's the most glaring in the dinner scene, which builds for us the premise on which this entire book stands (the topic of pregnancy). There are ways you could have them make the jump from nervous about having kids to excited, if you tried - there are elements in their storyline that could have helped us understand their urgency.

- I played Liam's route first, and was happy overall with it but I still have my misgivings. The good in terms of Liam's story is that he gets importance because the story is also about him and his country, where we are staying. He gives us some very important details in his route, and personally I like that his role as Guide To The Intricacies And Nuances of Cordonian Society still exists...but you can't deny that there were things in his storyline which should have been addressed and never were. I hope those are addressed this book. If they do the same this time around, it will only be to their detriment.

- Also, I find it highly ironic that Drake is the one to mention Savannah and Bartie when it was MAXWELL who was more involved in helping her with the child. Sure, he was - as he confessed in that Valtoria scene - more the "fun uncle" type, but he was still pretty heavily involved. Still keeping track of what Savannah needed and what Bartie would want. In his own final Book 3 scene, Maxwell is shown having an amazing rapport with little Bartie, playing peekaboo with his nose. I can barely count scenes involving Drake and Bartie with the fingers of one hand. Why couldn't Maxwell reference that last moment in Book 3, drawing up some inspirational moment from it? Like spending more and more time with Bartie changed the way he felt about kids? Or maybe that Savannah or Bertrand said something regarding the joy children bring to him. Anything that gives us some idea of when this shift happened.

Maxwell may have been new last book. It may have been a struggle to know what to do with him last book. But that isn't the case right now. By now they should have settled in their writing of him and figured out ways to make his story make sense? To give him more depth rather than simply reducing the man to the court jester? Maxwell's story was supposed to be about him growing, the scene in Valtoria was supposed to be about wanting to be a good father for his future children but fearing he might fail...yet the writers have the same man say the exact opposite. Maxwell's family history was thrown away for no good reason last book, and was replaced by Savannah drama. There was more space given to Savannah's love story with Bertrand (which didn't NEED the entire book to gain fruition) and Drake (optionally) enjoying humiliating Bertrand. That time, energy and effort could have gone in building up Maxwell, getting an insight into what happened to the Beaumonts that they became so poor...but no. The only Beaumont that mattered seems to be Savannah (and we know exactly why). And going by the fact that they're going to force an entire wedding storyline involving Bertrand and Savannah down our throats, that still seems to be the case.

- Hana's is even more worrying considering that it was poles apart from the rest of the playthroughs and therefore SHOULD have had more thought. Yes Hana loves the idea of being a mother. Yes Hana loves children and has a nurturing nature. But the urgency is still the same as the others' in her playthrough, and it made absolutely no sense. There was a clear dissonance between their current situation and the rush these two were in.

Hana's deserved at least some more time in her dinner scene. Maybe one where she could speak about growing up an only child, with no companions and not even toys. She could explain the loneliness involved in having a small family with parents who gave her more duties than affection, and then speak about giving her kid a better childhood. There isn't even any discussion about which of them should be the person carrying (we know it will be the MC, but why it has to be her in their case is anyone's guess).

What the team have done here is give Hana the bare minimum, after an entire two books of giving her even less than that. I know I'll probably be judged for thinking negatively rather than being cautiously optimistic, but the fact is that the moment this team feels they can get away with tossing scraps or less than that, they can and will do it. It's not stopped them before: not from botching up Hana's storyline, not from giving Hana fans a reception full of goof-ups and shoddy writing, not from pairing her with her bully. Perhaps last year I would have been happy and grateful to see Hana and the MC calling each other "my wife". This time...I refuse to settle for just mere scraps. If you can give thought and care to Liam and Drake's storylines, you'd better be able to do the same for Hana and Maxwell, otherwise what's the point of reviving this book? What's the point of using Hana specifically in two of your ads as bait for your lesbian/bi/wlw fans?? Might as well let the entire series rot in the trash where it belongs in that case.

- I've heard theories about our child becoming heir to the throne, thanks to a possible future arc that may make Liam unable to have children. I personally hate this possible plot line for two reasons:

1. As it is the MC gets more importance than she deserves, whether or not she actually puts in the work. She becomes a front-runner during the social season even if she fails. She becomes a Duchess even if she lacks even the most basic skills, while Hana who has done way more than she ever had for the country gets nothing, not even a needle-point's worth of land. She becomes Champion of the Realm even if she is literal garbage throughout that book, when that title could have easily gone to Olivia or Hana instead if she didn't earn enough to get it. And now to have her kid be made an heir to the throne? For no good reason? Get outta here.

2. Forcing Liam into yet another storyline that is tragic and painful (and I'm pretty sure the writers will find yet another excuse to write a thesis on Drake Walker in the time they could be using to let Liam actually break down, or vent. If they couldn't be bothered to explore the man's feelings when his own father died, do you really think they will bother with him in this??) on top of whatever else he's had to experience so far? At this point I can do with less of that. I'm honestly sick of storylines that put Liam in very uncomfortable, painful situations with very little space for him to air out his grief. Give the man a fucking break. Let him have some breathing space to rule his goddamned kingdom, get him a fantastic therapist and get him better friends while he's at it. Pushing him into yet another messed-up situation when you've barely even scratched the surface with what his experiences have done to him, is really just drama for the sake of drama, nothing else.

- Nonetheless, since this is about a pregnancy and a future heir, I believe there will be plenty talk about succession, and about the importance given to fertility and children in Cordonian society. But as with the social season in Book 1, the engagement tour in Book 2, and the wedding + Unity Tour in Book 3, I believe the pregnancy itself is a frame story. The kind of story that justifies the glitz, the glitter, and the glamorous events...that can serve as a temporary gloss to cover the conflicts within. All while the inner stories reveals those conflicts, layer by layer (again, if it's done right. Book 3 is a good example of a great premise ruined by bad writing. I sincerely hope this book does not go in that direction).

- Remember those screenshots I put up in that dinner scene from Liam's route? About Cordonia's tensions with its neighbouring countries, and how the country may be viewed as vulnerable? I think that's where the actual theme of the story lies.

Books 1 and 2 mostly revolved around the illusion of Cordonia - the fairytale kingdom - before the MC herself is confronted with the tensions brewing within. Book 3 was about strengthening Cordonia through resolution of internal conflict. It was about learning about the intricacies of the country, its most powerful duchies, their histories and identities, Cordonia's messy, complicated history - to tackle the problems that lay within.

I feel like Book 4 would be taking a natural progression from resolving internal conflict to finally standing united as a nation against outside forces. Constantine - in his conversation with the MC in Shanghai - hints not only at groups within Cordonia that wanted to destroy the monarchy, but also foreign powers ("suffice to say there are those who envy Cordonia's prosperity...". Not the royal family's - but "Cordonia's").

Keeping a united front and showcasing strength through pride in the country - ergo 'patriotism', or perhaps 'national integration' since Cordonia is home to many different cultures and geographical locations (I originally wrote 'nationalism here, but now realize there may be negative connotations attached to that word in today's times: thanks @musicallisto!) is often viewed as an asset against alien forces. The MC is now a part of the monarchy/nobility, and will be irrevocably tied to the country's future - so it makes sense that she will now dig into the deepest and most intimate parts of Cordonia's history, and go several steps further in helping to unite the nation.

- Why do I theorize 'patriotism' or 'national integration' as being a theme? There are several reasons for this:

The Unresolved Storylines: We still have a ways to go in understanding Cordonian history. We don't know which other forces were involved in previous assassinations, and we don't have a clue what happened to Liam's mother. All we do know is that other people and groups that we have probably not even seen yet, may have been involved. Francesco (who also knew Liam's mother) and Xinghai, the only foreign delegates/visitors that we got to network with in Book 2, have minimal roles so far but SEEM to have had some influence when they were introduced earlier. Francesco particularly could have some sort of role to play, given what we were told about him in Book 2. Now would be a good time to explore why he needed contacts with these people (other than the fact that Xinghai is Hana's dad). It's possible that nothing will happen and we may not even see these two, or exchange any important information, but I'd still hope that there is some importance to their appearances in Book 2.

The Connections We Made In The Engagement Tour: Meeting Francesco in Capri was related to getting access to EU markets for Cordonian products. The engagement tour itself revolved around grabbing international attention towards Cordonian problems - one of which was the tsunami that hit Portavira, which we learn more about in Book 3. There is a possibility that these threads may be picked up in the future.

Both the above points hint at possible threats, or allies. At this point we can't exactly determine who is friend and who is foe, but it is clear that neighbouring countries - and indeed countries we have associated with in the past - will play a pretty big role in the way we view Cordonia, and in the way we direct the narrative of this country.

The Artwork: I love this part of my theory because it is the most based on actual evidence rather than guesswork. The idea of a nation depends as much on items of familiarity and symbols, as it does on history. It's why countries have national animals, anthems, fruits. Why art depicting national and local legends can often be considered almost sacred. The book has barely even begun yet, and already it is FILLED with all kinds of things symbolic to Cordonia.

Let's first take a peek at the cover art:

Now let's ignore Liam's and Drake's (busted) faces in this cover and focus on what the three are holding.

The MC holds a rattle in her hand, and the jewel within the rattle looks similar to a ruby, which has been associated more than once with apples in the story (Cordonia's most valued variety of apple is the Cordonian Ruby, Liam's wedding gift to the MC is a ruby in the shape of an apple. The same rattle shows up in the second cover [on the left] as well. It's a stretch, I know, but I've got better evidence. Stick with me).

Liam holds a onesie with a crown design on the front - and we know that "for crown and country" is a popular phrase, especially for toasts, in Cordonia. Drake holds out a toy lion: the lion is the national animal, and holds a place of pride in the national Coat-of-Arms. The throne on which the MC herself sits, is blue and gold - both considered national colours. That's at least 4 symbols related to Cordonia vying for our attention on the same cover!

I mean, even Book 3 had just two major symbols - the apple (related to Cordonia) and the phoenix gown (related to Valtoria) - featuring on its cover.

The biggest proof to me, however, is not the cover, but the loading page. To be more precise - what is written above that loading page. A number of Choices books (BB, for instance) write little factoids about the world they are building above the loading bar, which players can read while they're waiting for the chapter to load. This wasn't a common practice with TRR, but they've definitely started it now! Some of the commentary is usual stuff - about gaining advantages through outfits, welcoming you back to Cordonia, etc...but THIS TIME there are tidbits of information given to us as well. And 80% of those involve apples!

Here are a few I managed to catch. One fact on the importance of apples in Cordonian culture, two specifically on the Cordonian Ruby itself including a rare recipe, and two old proverbs (this isn't the only time we've heard apple-related proverbs in the books - in Book 3 for instance, Bertrand refers to their trip to Fydelia as 'slicing two apples with one knife'). Proverbs in general often give us an idea of what people within a region hold up as important, as so connected to their life experiences that they can use those familiar objects as motifs for things that they see in daily life (eg. proverbs in my home state, Kerala, often refer to things/animals we find locally: jasmines, coconuts, jackfruit, dogs, elephants).

The fact that the apple features so often and with such emphasis in the loading page itself - and we have already seen what this simple fruit means to Cordonia - indicates to me that this national symbol - and the idea of the nation itself - will be of great importance. Not only will we be exploring foreign relations, IMO, but we'll also be learning how to build a national narrative that will benefit and strengthen Cordonia.

What's also interesting is that the apple symbolizes fertility to the Cordonian people as well - the apple cutting ceremony during a wedding (as explained by Regina to Leo's fiancée in RoE) is "a symbol of the fruit the tree will bear - you being the tree, of course", and there are chances that the fruit may feature often within the context of pregnancy/having children as well.

• That's all for now, guys. I hope to write more and theorize more as the chapters progress! Until then, I hope you enjoy this one, and I'd love to hear what you have to say.

• I did the Hana screenshots for this chapter, since the first chapter allows me to play repeatedly within losing keys, but I won't be able to do so from Chapter 2 onwards. If there are any Hana fans out there who keep screenshots of scenes in their route and are interested in sharing, I'd love to hear from you and will definitely credit you for the screenshots I put up!

• If you'd like to be tagged in future QTs, please let me know! Tagging @nikkisha16 for now since she asked xD

• Until Saturday, folks!

Burn the Ships, Chapter Five

A/N: I will try to have one more chapter up before Christmas, but no guarantees because tomorrow is Christmas #1 (of four), so, yeah...I’m gonna be busy pretty much from now til New Year’s. :P

On the upside of having to do a ton more research than this chapter probably actually reflects, I now better understand where places are in relation to other places in Hawaii. XD

. . . . .

Chapter Five

Alex knocked on the door to room 2026 of the Ilikai Hotel, tapping his foot impatiently against the carpeted hallway floor.

After what felt like ages, the door finally opened. “It’s done then?”

“Yeah, it’s done,” Alex muttered, pushing his way inside. “As done as it’s going to be anyway.”

Agent James Branning frowned as the door clicked softly shut behind him. “What’s that supposed to mean? Either it is or it isn’t.”

“Look, the DEA here have been onto them for months, and the Five-0 task force is involved now, too. As far as I’m concerned, we’re done here.”

“You know this is about more than just the drug trade. What about the men on the boat?”

“Three dead, one in the wind.”

“Then it’s not done, is it?”

“Five-0 will have him before along, alright? If you’re so desperate to make sure, why don’t you go out there instead? Because I’m done.” Alex sat down on the couch with a soft sigh, his head dropping back, eyes closing.

“You can rest after I debrief you.”

“Boat exploded. Coast Guard caught me. Ended up with Five-0. Had a panic attack,” Alex ground out. “Now leave me alone.”

“That’s not good enough, and you know it -- not to mention the irrelevant information.”

“Well, clearly, I don’t care.”

Alex couldn’t see him with his eyes closed, but he could imagine that James was pinching the bridge of his nose in frustration. He did that a lot where Alex was concerned, but right now he didn’t care that he was the source of the man’s stress; all he wanted was a nap.

A defeated sigh, then: “Fine. Rest while you can, because I’m booking us the first flight back to the mainland. If you’re lucky, I won’t drop you back in Cali on my way.”

He could hear the man’s footsteps as he crossed the room and the click of a door closing, leaving him alone. But he didn’t mind; he preferred the solitude to the agent’s presence, anyway. At least he wasn’t forcing Alex to go back out to finish what he started; he was booking a flight back, which meant he was accepting it as completed. The mission was over, then, and he could go home -- whatever that meant. The house he lived in wasn’t ‘home’ -- not really. He didn’t think it ever would be, didn’t think he’d ever know what ‘home’ really was now.

Alex just wanted this to be over, but he knew it never truly would be. Within a couple of weeks -- possibly sooner, even before the new year started -- he’d be right back off again to some other odd corner of the world to do something that ‘only he could’. Deep down, he knew that was a lie, yet he still believed it every time.

Two years and hundreds of lies -- Alex was tired of it, but there was nothing he could do about it, either. He was stuck on a never-ending Merry-Go-Round, circle after circle. The very thought made him queasy; he’d never particularly liked carolsels, and this one, built on espionage and deception, was one he would very much like to get off of.

And, he realized with a shudder, he may well have just lost his absolute last chance to do so. Commander McGarrett had seemed to genuinely care from the get-go, and Alex had no doubt he would follow through on his offer if Alex would only let him. He shook the thought away. No; the ones that care end up dead. It’s better for everyone for me to just disappear and forget this ever happened.

. . .

Alex managed to doze for fifteen minutes or so before James was shaking him awake. “Let’s go. There’s a flight to LA out of Kahului late enough that if we leave now, we can still make it in time, and we’ll be able to catch a connection from there to DC.”

Alex sighed, heaving himself to his feet as he watched James shove his laptop into a bag and head towards the door. He didn’t have anything to carry himself, and he didn’t offer to carry anything for his guardian, either.

The Ilikai had been chosen for convenience; located across the street was the Ala Wai Boat Harbor in the Kahanamoku Lagoon. Somewhere in the Ala Wai, a boat was waiting to take them to Moloka’i. From Moloka’i, they would switch to another boat to continue to Maui, and then -- then they’d be gone.

He obediently followed behind James as they left the hotel and crossed the road to the harbor. As they neared the dock, another man came alongside them. He nodded at James; James nodded back; no words were exchanged, and they followed him past rows and rows of boats moored there.

When his instincts, honed from years of trying not to die, told him to duck, Alex didn’t question it. Gunshots rang out, and the man, who was supposed to be taking them off the island, fell with a grunt and lay still. Alex dove behind the nearest vessel before the man had even hit the dock, James going the opposite direction while pulling a gun from its holster.

One look from James told Alex everything: this was his fault. If he’d finished his job instead of handing it off, they wouldn’t be taking fire with their only way off of Oahu gone. If they somehow survived this, they were still going to miss their flight -- nevermind about getting there at all -- and would probably have to fly out of Honolulu instead. Alex winced; this just was not his day.

Alex didn’t watch as shots were exchanged, but after only a minute or so, the noise ceased. He glanced over at James, who met his gaze before cautiously moving out from his cover. Alex swallowed harshly, no small amount of trepidation and anxiety rolling in his gut. That was too easy.

Shouts sounded from down the dock, and Alex stood up to see what the commotion was about. Before he could step out from behind the boat, however, a man jumped down from the deck, blocking Alex’s path, a pistol leveled at his chest.

“Going somewhere, Rider?”

Alex swallowed. Crap. He’d been made, after all. Maybe he could still play dumb? “Look, I’m sorry about this morning --.”

“You think that’s what this is about, do you? I am both surprised and a little offended you don’t recognize me.”

Maybe not. “I haven’t forgotten,” Alex stated, voice shaking. And, truly, he hadn’t. The man’s name was Walker, and he was part of the real reason Alex was in Hawaii. “Malogosto is hard to forget.”

“Indeed. I really liked you, you know, so you’d better believe it when I say that this is more than just a little bit personal.”

Alex heard as he pulled back the hammer. James has to come looking eventually -- just stall! “If you recognized me from the start, why didn’t you kill me before?”

Walker shrugged. “I guess part of me hoped you’d found some sense and you really were on our side. I guess you could say I wanted to see you play your hand. But enough stalling. This ends now. You’ve gotten in my way for the last time.”

There wasn’t enough time or space to do anything now; Alex closed his eyes as he heard the gun discharge. He heard a grunt and something heavy hit the dock, but when he opened his eyes, he was still standing. His gaze snapped up to find that, just behind where Walker now lay, stood one Commander Steve McGarrett.

At the same moment he realized that McGarrett had shot Walker, he became aware of something hot and wet trailing down his left arm. He turned his head, curious.

Oh. That’s a lot of blood.

He wasn’t sure how he got there, but the next thing he knew, he was sitting on the dock, his bicep on fire while his hand was going numb. His first and dominant thought was, that doesn’t make any sense for one to be hot and the other cold, while some part of his brain that was actually still online supplied, you’ve been shot, you idiot; you’re losing blood.

Calloused hands cupped his face, his eyes drifting up to meet the commander’s concerned gaze.

“Alex, you gotta breathe for me, buddy. I know it hurts, but you need to breathe.”

He hadn’t realized he wasn’t until the request had been made. As he struggled to pull in a full breath -- because why was breathing suddenly so hard when he got hit in the arm -- he focused on McGarrett, the lines in the man’s face easing ever-so-slightly.

“There you go. Good job. Paramedics are on the way -- they should be here in a minute -- but until then, I need to get that bleeding under control, okay?”

Alex felt himself nod, his eyes closing against the inevitable onslaught of more pain, and McGarrett’s hands slipped from his face. A moment later, he felt pressure against his arm, the pain flaring white hot. He bit his lip to keep from crying out, but a whimper escaped unbidden anyway.

“I know, kid; I know.” A hand cupped the back of his neck, the thumb moving gently up and down. “It’s alright, Alex. You’re going to be okay. Just breathe.”

Pirate au part 5 pt2

(link to first part of pt5)

Alright, alright back from the flash back

"Yes but if I am honest, I thought it was a fabrication to deal with the life they forced upon you... however it does explain your need of aquatic plush toys in your quarters."

Hat replied leaning back in his chair, legs outstretched and chin on chest with arms folded.

"Tha' an I jus' like 'em, also sir..."

"Hmm?"

The old demon responded not looking up as a glass appeared aswell as a bottle of wine, pouring by itself before reaching out a hand for it, claws tapping lightly on the glass.

Didn't matter what time of day it was if he wanted a drink he was going to have one.

He was still bitter that Demencia and Acylius were probably talking up a storm and completely ignoring him.

How flipping wonderful for them.

(Awww someone's a grumpy old man XD)

"I were told yer handled yer... Ahem noodles other night."

505 continued, rubbing the back of his neck and looking off to the side, though it was hard not to smile as the Captain let out another indignant huff.

"Excuse you, they are most certainly not noodles, I can make them any size I want!"

He was clearly exasperated by his cooks response, rising to his feet and pacing only for it to hit Black Hat that if 505 knee that means.... ¬w¬ Acylius was awake, that made the pirate King smile, good so he'd heard him, perhaps the merman was intrigued and-

"Really wow...honest jus' be thinkin' with the size o' this 'ere ship was compensating for sumthin."

Fives returned casually and snorted as Black Hat gasped dramatically, hand on chest.

"I am affronted in Spanish you would think such a thing!"

"Pfffft sir yer got a merman who's affronted in a whole lot o' Spanish by ere thin yer done."

That made our Old bastard pause as he looked incredulously at his employee

"Oh like what?"

"Dining withou' even offerin' ter share fer one."

Hat immediately started fidgeting as well as his mind going blank, what was he supposed to do, confess the merman made him lose all reason and he'd been so busy on trying to be impressive to Acylius he'd actually forgotten the merman’s basic needs.

The king couldn't exactly disagree considering be happily ate anything the man put infront of him, scrubbing his hands down his face and groaning

"I have not even asked if Flug has a food he favors most, no wonder he shuns my presence."

"Sir, do calm yer self, trust me, merman ain't hatin' on ya, or he wud 'ave jumped out, merfolk sooner die than stay trapped against their will, part of him wants ter stay."

Now that made the old demon perk up, honestly if anyone other than Fives or Demencia and Acylius talked to him this way, when the blasted merman would finally converse with him that was, he'd have tossed anyone else overboard cut open to draw in sharks and watched as they were mauled.

Ahhh mauling, what a lovely thing.

Maybe he'd do that later anyway, he felt in the mood for a killing, it would be easy enough to find some reason to off one of his own men, no one dared to argue with Pirate King Black Hat lest they be next on his list.

"So what else do you know about deep sea merfolk? I know about Thaddeus's world and of his Edward practically having one as a pet, but they never gave me the detailsr and I did not care to ask at the time, I think they might have even escaped."

Returning to his seat, there was only the sound of the sea and Fives food sizzling or boiling subtly, calming in its own way, his cook had returned to the stove working on Black Hat's meal and the slops the rest of the crew had...excluding the cook himself and Dem...he would not have his best workers fed so poorly.

"King I'm surprised yer dun know more about his kind , I be bettin he has some pet yer ripped him away from..."

Looking over his shoulder he saw Black Hat starting to fidget as he realised that he'd probably caused Acylius more distress without meaning to.

"He dun seem ter 'ave a partner, food offerin' are like socializations...sum cases even get yer matin if they reaaaally like the food and the one offerin'"

Inside Black Hat's mind was a smaller version of himself frantically scrawling all this down while listening calmly, if Acylius did have a pet he was going to bloody well hunt for it and start courting the stubborn fish correctly.

----

In the Captain's quarters Acylius was floating in his tank there was not much he could really do in empty waters.

Tail swaying gently up and down, listening to Demencia's stories about Black Hat and the adventures they'd had.

His fins drooping slightly, so that was a yes, they were a sort of thing, where did that leave him, was he once again some beings pet?

That left him wondering if he was expected to worship within this prison and please his new master...at least if someone explained to him what his fate was to be, his could accept it all the quicker, it was the anticipation making it nearly unbearable.

Maybe if he behaved he could even bargain favors of his body for Black Hat to bring him his beloved Mew Mew loaf...but what if the Pirate king devoured her if he did not behave.

Thaddeus absolutely would have had he had Mew Mew as his companion then.

Looking up at Demencia, she noticed the vulnerability through the cut out holes in the tied bag on his head, she was staring back curiously wondering what was going through his mind.

Acylius had to agree she was really fascinating herself...if Black Hat and Demencia had room for him...it would still be better than his last arrangement.

He'd never met someone quite so excitable as her, she had such a lust for madness it was incredible.

"Hmm would you like to join me in my fish bowl?"

Flug offered, swimming up to the surface, holding a hand out for her, long fingers, fins fanning, delicate veils lined with fragile thin bone adorning his forearms, glistening in the sunlight.

Watching them sway, her urge to touch them rising, she'd never seen a mer being up close until Acylius so of course the lizard woman was fascinated, reaching out hesitantly and pausing, giving him a questioning look as she was unsure if that would upset him.

"Yes you can touch them, but in the tank please, so I can keep them wet, they tend to tear like tissue paper when dry."

Flug chuckled, reaching now with both hands he lifted her into his water home.

Most of course would have have asked why any mer person would want a land walker in their domain and with good reason, there were many cautionary tales of sailors being drowned by merfolk.

Demencia of course being Demencia XD was like Hell yeah and made a joyful surprised sound at how easily Flug lifted her, once in the waters she let out a sigh, they were so cool and refreshing, absolutely wonderful.

"Now that you are in, may I make one more request, may I kiss you?"

His deep and gentle voice with its own alluring inviting timber had her growing a little flustered, she'd lying if she did not agree that it made his request all tempting. .

"Whoa there fish man, at least buy me dinner first."

She teased playfully and gently nudged him.

Acylius was smiling under his mask and shook his head

"What would you like Miss, I have thin air and water...but all joking aside Demencia, it is so I can make you breathe underwater."

"Ohhhh right, makes sense, well then, pucker up fish boy!"

"Only if you close your eyes, I do not want to put you off."

"Please nothing would put me off, you could be a face of tentacles and I'd still smooch ya!"

Flug snorted, indeed she was entertaining. "

"Alright, do not say, that I did not warn you."

Lifting the lower half of his bag, smiling to the fullest extent his lips would allow, the corners of them disappearing under his mask, mouth full of sharp teeth, in awe she stared at their shimmering beauty, all of them like daggers made of pearl, mouth going dry and silently cursing, damn, fangs...her weakness.

The kiss was brief, an opening of mouths, exchange of fluids before being pulled down into the water.

Wow...in here she saw what he saw, the captains quarters looked distant, as if they were peering into a small rectangular window, on the other side of the was the vastness of the ocean, all types of plant life and fish, so on so forth, reaching out to try and touch his world her hand met only more glass.

"Ah ah no touching or it breaks my illusion, it is too tiring to make solid ones at all times but these ones help me from going mad in my solitude in this fish bowl."

Flug was quiet, thinking on how to respond to that

"If you come from Pearl City, you are considered perfect, their colours are more pastel and you are free but with a king...it is full of wonder and lights..."

Sighing he looked out into the vastness of his illusion, it changed to show the city, glowing and splendid

A silhouette of a show over it of he, Thaddeus and Edward.

" Upon my first viewing I thought it beautiful, but that light for me soon diminished as I was kept by its King, like a pet...I do not hate this Land King though who has me now...he seems surprisingly awkward...endearing really..."

"Ohhhh you like him!"

"Shush or I will not continue....my deep sea kind are dwindling in numbers and because of our rarity if captured we can be used as a power play a sign of well to do...deep sea merfolk are wild and free, come and go as we please unless we have a reason to stay that is... "

He raised a brow, sensing Demencia had more to say gently prodded her

" What is it? "

"You want to stay for the Captain huh, that will make him happy he's been a grumpy old sod because he thinks you hate him."

"I would have jumped out the bloody tank by now if I did...anyway my kind is more willing to help anyone and everyone, Pearl City folk only help their own."

Acylius shook his head, smiling to himself, his cheeks were thankfully hidden by his mask because he was blushing and he knew it.

" Screw those pearl mersnobs, you're already more amazing than them...hmm your fins are really nice I was expecting them to feel slimy like actual fish."

Flug stifled a laugh at her attitude toward Pearl Merfolks, that certainly lifted his mood at how unimpressed she was by them, his fins suddenly flared out, the spines on bis back raising defensively as he held her closer before putting her behind him and poised to strike at the nothingness in Black Hat's Cabin, a swirling portal of purple light tore through the air and his first words in response

"You will not have her creature!"

Acylius's claws extended however no one stepped out only a voice was heard

"Awwww cute you were socialising, guessing Black Hat hasn't been looking after you, Demmy Where's Blackie?"

Demencia had been caught completely off guard at Flug's willingness to protect her, taking a moment to come back down to Earth and answer the voice that she knew well

" He's in the Galley Ferral! "

" Thanks hun! "

With that the portal disappeared.

"Full of surprises aren't ya!"

Demmy was clearly excited by his display, like an eager child to see more, that had been pretty awesome for her to see that and see his usually white and deep blue tail instantly go black with bright blue rings on in warning against predators.

" You know them...that thing?"

"Ohhh yes, brief encounters here and there, in another dimension she's Black Hats daughter and your step daughter...though that Flug is really quite different from you, small world after all huh."

"Yes indeed."

He replied, though he still fixed on the space where the portal had been.

It was nice to know in another dimension he and Black Hat had a family... Maybe one day they... No that was thinking waaaaay too far ahead.

[ 365 Days of SasuHina || Day Two Hundred Seventy: For the Planet ] [ Uchiha Sasuke, Hyūga Hinata ] [ SasuHina ] [ Verse: When Dead Walk ] [ AO3 Link ]

When the sun rises, Sasuke opens his eyes, staring up at a growingly-familiar ceiling. It’s been a few weeks since he and his brother holed up in an old, abandoned farmhouse east of their hometown. It’s still in pretty good condition, a few chickens somehow still alive and rooting around the place. A hand pump means they can draw water, and the food they’d found lasted a while before they had to start making treks into other places to look for supplies.

Which, incidentally, is where they - or, Sasuke more specifically - ran into their newest guests while on the run from walkers. Literally. A pair of sisters, around or younger than his age. Hinata, the elder, and Hanabi, the younger. They’d literally crossed paths while fleeing a triggered boobytrap that attracted the dead like flies to honey. She’d managed to save his life, and then give him a lift back home in exchange for some of his spoils.

But the fall of night meant it not being safe to leave, so...the girls spent it here. While they claimed the upstairs, Sasuke and Itachi had camped out on the ground level.

Itachi is still sleeping, huddled up opposite his brother. He’s a bit pale...must be cold. The nights are getting longer, and with the sun gone longer, it’s only getting chillier.

Sasuke dreads the thought of Winter. There’s a decently-stacked wood shed, but he’s not sure how safe it is to use the hearth in the sitting room. They can block out the windows to hide the light, but the smoke might warrant...unwanted attention. And when the weather turns, going out in search of food will be even harder. Sasuke has no experience hunting, and they only have so much ammunition for the pistol and rifle they’ve come across during their travels further and further east.

They’ve been so unsure about surviving day to day, planning for the upcoming season just...hasn’t been a priority. And now that they’ve made it this far, Winter looms before them like a mountain. Sighing, Sasuke slings an arm up over his eyes. If he thinks about this too much, it’s going to give him a headache…

So, instead, he opts to get up, careful not to wake his brother. Itachi sleeps peacefully so rarely anymore, Sasuke would rather lose a hand than take any rest from him.

Looking out the nearest window, he finds the morning to be rather foggy, still overcast like yesterday. But the muffled sounds of birdsong still reach through the panes, and he can’t help but find a little joy in that. It’s funny...humanity is suffering, dying, clawing to survive. And the rest of nature just goes on like business as usual.

Funny, really.

Able to glean little else, he makes his way upstairs, skipping the steps he knows make loud creaks. The door to the bedroom the boys offered is closed, and he gently knocks once he reaches it.

“Come in.”

In a way, he’s a bit...hesitant. It’s been so long since they’ve had another cordial human being around, he’s almost unsure how to act. But permission has been given, so he carefully turns the knob and peers in.

Hinata’s awake, sitting up against the wall her bed lies beside. Hanabi, however, is still asleep, head on her sister’s lap despite the other empty bed. Hands weave slow fingers through her hair.

“It’s been a while since she’s slept so soundly,” Hinata murmurs, eyes turned down to her sibling. “...I hope we’re not overstaying our welcome.”

“Not at all,” he assures her, leaning against the doorframe. “It’s nice to have some polite company, honestly.”

“I know what you mean. It’s been a while.”

“...Itachi’s still sleeping, too. Figured I might as well let him rest.”

“It’s a precious commodity most nights.”

“That’s for sure.”

A companionable silence falls between them, Hinata still tending to Hanabi’s hair.

“...mind if I ask a personal question?”

“I don’t see why not.”

“What was your...situation like before the plague hit?”

“I was in college, studying botany. My sister was in high school. We lived with our father - our mother died not long after Hanabi was born. He worked in a law office. We were just...a fairly typical middle class family, I suppose.”

“Botany, huh?”

“Mhm...mostly because I love flowers so much. My mother was always very fond of them, so...they make me feel closer to her.” After an appropriate pause, Hinata asks, “...what about you?”

“Wasting my time on a business degree my dad wanted me to have,” Sasuke replies blandly. “Itachi was already working for him when things went to hell. My dad owned a pretty decent computer tech company. Wanted us both in on it. My mom was a school teacher, but took a few years off when my brother and I were little. She’d gotten back into it full time when I started middle school.”

Neither of them breech the explanations why none of their parents are with them now.

Likely for good reason.

“It’s so peaceful out here,” Hinata then comments as the conversation falls flat. “You can almost forget what’s going on out there…”

“Yeah...until you have to make a supply run...and get your ass saved by a madwoman with a shovel,” Sasuke replies, unable to help a hint of a grin.

Hinata does her best to suppress a smile. “I suppose that’s true. But it’s...strange, isn’t it? Just...seeing the world go on while we’re all so out of place and l-lost.”

“...yeah. It is. Was just thinking about that when I got up. Hearing the birds singing, seeing the weather change...nature really doesn’t give a shit, does it?”

“...sometimes I wonder if, in the grand scheme of things…” Hinata trails off, looking unsure if she should speak. “...if...if this was the best way things could go for the planet. It was pretty clear humans were going to be their own downfall one way or...or another. At least this way no bombs went off, nothing really...catastrophic happened. All of the industries killing the Earth are stopped, so few running cars...maybe life as a whole will do a lot b-better without us around, huh?”

“I wouldn’t doubt it. So long as some idiot doesn’t make their way to DC and uncover some launch codes just for the hell of it.”

“I hope not. But the more I get to just...sit and think about it...the more this all feels like it makes sense. We spent so long killing our home, acting like a disease...and now a disease will be the end of us. It’s almost...comforting, in a really w-weird way. At least to me. I can make peace with it. I’ll do my best to survive, and protect my sister. But...I know in the long run, we’re out of time. So...I just try to make due with w-what I have.”

For a long moment, Sasuke doesn’t reply...because he doesn’t have a reply. Maybe a foolish part of him - in spite of the logic - still thinks they can make it. Live out a decent chunk of life before meeting their ends one way or another. And yet he isn’t even sure how they’re going to conquer their first Winter. “...guess I don’t really think about it. I just...take things one day at a time. Each one we make it through is a little victory. But...I know what you mean. I might be the younger sibling, but...I do my best to take care of my brother. He’s always been a little...sickly. Kinda frail. In all honesty...I’m amazed he’s made it this far. I’ll do whatever I have to to make what time we’ve got count. And I’ll fight for every day I can give him, until...well, there’s none left.”

Hinata gives him a small, somber smile. “...then I guess our goals are the same. Hopefully that...makes us allies?”

“I’d like to think so. Humans are stronger together than apart. Maybe a few extra hands is a good thing.”

“Well, they also come with extra mouths.”

“Yeah...but I think the gains outweigh the costs. Once everyone’s up...maybe we’ll talk a bit more about it. I wouldn’t be against pooling our resources and abilities. But we’d better make sure it’s unanimous, right?”

“I agree.”

For the first time in a while, Sasuke feels...something in his chest.

He dares to call it hope.

“...well, I’ll go start some breakfast. These two’ll probably be up by the time it’s done.”

“All right. Need any help?”

“Nah. Besides, you’re occupied,” Sasuke replies, nodding to Hanabi’s head in her lap. “...let her sleep while she can.”

“...thank you, Sasuke.”

.oOo.

(This is a sequel to day 197!) More of the zombie apocalypse verse! It's been a while since the first one, and I'll admit I missed it a bit. I'm still a few days behind, but I'm hoping I can start catching up here over the next few days :'D We'll see what Life throws at me lol Anyway, it seems we might have a potential alliance on our hands! Which would be good - many hands make light work, and though that does also mean more mouths to feed, it just might help them get through the Winter. Hinata's pretty skilled at taking out the undead with a shovel - maybe she can hunt with one, too xD Anyway, it's veeery late, so I better call it a night. Thanks for reading!

Andi Mack Season 3 Finale Predictions (More like wishes really)

Okay so I’ve been thinking about what I reckon the season will end with and what I’d like it to end with for ages, and have finally decided to make a post about it. If you like let me know what you think and share your own thoughts, the more the merrier (I’m starting to wonder if hiatus 2.0 is worse than Miranda, Morgan, and Kira put together), anyway my thoughts:

*Bexie Wedding - By this I don’t mean a traditional wedding with loads of people invited like Celia wants, I think Bex will decide that things will be fine by marrying Bowie, but do it privately with just the two of them and Andi present. Then maybe have some kind of friends and family get together afterwards (Maybe Cookie will return?) to break the news, which I think after some time Celia will be okay with.

*Tyrus and Muffy endgame - Tyrus just HAS to be endgame, they’ve put to much into the relationship and after 3x13 they deserve an even better than Swing Scene 2.0 scene, so I’ll be very surprised if they don’t end up officially a couple (and mad, very very mad.) Regarding Muffy, I think something will happen to make them get back together as a couple, whether that’s Kira secretly being Marty’s Girlfriend and then there is drama from that and she leaves, or something else (see below) I don’t know, but I think it’s reasonable at least for them to work out.

*Jonah and Andi end up single - Before you Ambi shippers come at me with pitchforks, I too ship them, but to me they seem at the stage that TJ and Cyrus were at during Swing Scene 1.0 at the moment, plus Jamber is a thing (for some reason) so while there is some time for something more to develop there, I’m just not sure Disney will have the main character being LGBTQ+ as well, but who knows. Either way I think Jonah will be single and content with that, he’ll figure out that he needs to work on himself for now and that’s okay. (But if Libby returned I’d be happy with that too XD)

*Kira’s storyline - If what I mentioned in the Tyrus and Muffy section isn’t the case, then I expect that Kira’s actions in 3x13 will lead to Tyrus becoming official. To me it was hinted that Kira likes TJ, and the interview where Luke said about her wanting a “snacc” (followed by his glorious dancing) backs that up, so she blackmailed him to do the costume with her, using his feelings for Cyrus which I don’t think he realised were so obvious, to not only get back at Buffy, but because she wants TJ for herself. I can see Buffy getting invloved and helping TJ to speak to Cyrus, then getting so mad with Kira when she finds out what happened. Maybe Kira challenges her to a Basketball 1x1 for the rank of Team Captain? Whatever happens, the outcome being either Kira realises how awful she’s been and changes for the better as TJ did, or she doesn’t see a problem and has to leave by Buffy and TJ standing up to her.

*Libby and Walker will not return - I’ll be sad if this is the case, I’m not the happiest about how things were left with them, especially Walker being turned down by Buffy and her not speaking to him, but I don’t think it’s likely that we will see them on screen again. I’ll gladly be wrong about it though :)

*The mysterious vanishing of Ham Mack - As much as I’d like recasting for him to be the main reason for Hiatus 2.0, I doubt that has been the case especially as there hasn’t been a renewal for Season 4, so it’s probable that there just won’t be any mention of him for the rest of the season.

That’s all I can think of for now, I might have forgotten some things but I’ll add them when I remember if that’s the case. I also hope this makes sense as phrasing this how it is in my head is trickier than I thought it would be lol.

It seems to me ASoIaF has a theme of shitty/incompetent kings displacing competent kings or candidates: 1) Mad King is crazy, and has to be removed. But in the process, Robert Baratheon kills Rhaegar Targaryen, who might have been a good king; 2) Robert gains the throne and f***s it up, dies, and throne goes to bastard-bastard Joffrey instead of actually competent Stannis; 3) Stannis will most likely get killed at Winterfell, 4) fAegon seems OK but will get roasted by Mad Daenerys. Thoughts?

hmm I think it’s a fair point - I still don’t think that daenerys is posed to turn mad - possibly darker but *mad* I doubt because she has to be around to fight the white walkers and like hell in the books that’s not the final boss, I think book six might end up being about finishing it with the throne and bringing people back in the north and seven about the white walkers roughly (or bringing people north + white walkers if they’re not there already), but I do agree that on a technical level aegon has a better cv than her when it comes to basic ruling knowledge XD

anyway that’s a theory that has merit imvho but I also think that it has to be taken in the thematic context that power generally ruins people regardless of how good they are at it, in the sense that if we go by your list:

aerys was aerys but things went fine until he and tywin got along and his position didn’t get to him and he didn’t fall prey to his paranoia...... tied to the fact that he’s the king

rhaegar could have been a good king if anything he’d have had good intentions but he also has some... questionable aspects that should be addressed by WoW hopefully, which admittedly would not overtly matter while ruling, but we can’t know if getting power would have eventually gotten to him or not;

robert definitely changed negatively because of being king;

joffrey was already bad and got worse;

stannis would most likely have been the only one able to handle it..... because he doesn’t want it for himself and it’s a question of principle and can put it aside for the greater good, which is technically a thing rhaegar was probably trying to do...... just very badly.

like I think it’s an extremely fair point that the competent candidates never get it, but I also think that the competent candidates might end up being not so good at it anyway unless they can handle it if it makes sense? like it’s definitely a thing, I’m still not sold that dany goes mad especially at that point - I can be sold she goes darker but mad I really don’t know and I think it’s unlikely -, but I also don’t really have a feeling that she’s eventually getting or that if there is a targ restoration it’s going to be hers so idk I guess we’ll be here hoping george decides to deliver asap. but yeah you definitely have a point there XD

#1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #i mean i don't even think she's THAT likely to die in the books so #idk dany isn't really the person I'm more skilled with but XD #janie rambles #asoiaf stuff #idk how i wrote this i hope ir makes sense #dragonkingancalagon #ask post

Officer Friendly

Eick Grimes x reader

honestly Rick is a daddy ;). Honestly i love the idea of being with a character in a zombie world for some reason xD

Summary: World gone to shit people gone to shit survival of the fittest or smartest?

Warnings: gore, swearing. going to get raped but doesn't. Character death.

It was a cool Sunday when the radio went to emergancy broadcast. You listened in turning it up as you swerved to miss a person on the road. You cursed heading home after hearing the news it sent a shiver up your spin. You packed quickly you had no other family, your mother died at child birth and your dad didnt qant to know you. You had a sister but she died when she was 5 to a disease.

You drove to the refugee centre they were setting up only to be stuck on the high way. You looked around when a explosion blew. You heard screaming and crashing as you got out of your car grabbing your things running back to your town. You finally made it home running into some creepy people you locked the doors and windows sitting in silence. What was happening?

It's been 2 months since the pandemic outbreak began. You were still in your home living with these creatures on the outside. Growlers you called them there growls the only thing you heard all day and all night. You were forced out one night a horde going through sending you into the woods. You walked for days and nights your body weak and your supplies low. You stumbled on a farm, you saw a man come out with a shot gun as you quickly put your hands up.

"Please I dont want no trouble" you said to the young man.

"Shane" You turned to see a elderly man behind him Hershel, your old high school friend Maggie. She saw you and smiled rushing to greet you. When you were younger you were inseparable always wanting to be together along with Beth.

"Glad to see you alive" Hershel said smiling.

"You too Hershel" You said you looked at the group behind you as they looked at you suspiciously.

"Come inside you must be hungry" Maggie said you nodded smiling as you followed her inside. You were joined by another man you hadn't seen before in a sheriff's outfit.

"Did you see a girl out there shes 12 got brown blonde hair bout this tall" He said his southern accent running thick. You shook your head he nodded putting his hands on his hips and walking out.

"That's Rick hes the leader of the small group out there" Maggie said you nodded watching them through the window.

Hershel let you stay and eventually the others to after a few bumps in the roads. The walkers in the shed and Shane being an absolute dick. You were in the woods when someone came up behind you grabbing you, You cried grabbing your knife.

"Hey just me" You froze hearing Shane's voice you calmed down as he let you go to let you turn around.

"You scared the shit out of me dumbass" You said he smirked.

"Sorry" He said you sighed he gave you a look making you uncomfortable.

"What did you uh need?" you asked.

"This" He placed his hands on your hips you froze telling him no but he pushed you against a tree trapping you. You tried to fight him off but it was useless he overpowered you pushing you to the ground you grunted at the impact whimpering as he sliced your shirt off. He was suddenly snatched off his best friend beating him up before throwing him off. Rick turned to you a cut on his eyebrow and lip he helped you up holding you steadily so you didnt fall.

"You good?" he asked you nodded shaken up as you covered your self with your turn t-shirt.

"Here" he shrugged his jacket off you thanked him quietly as you both headed back he glared at Shane as he led you inside leaving you to Maggie's care. She calmed you down soon enough but you couldn't get his hands off you.

Hershel was different now he went off sometimes you didnt know why no one did. He was still upset about his wife though he knew now. You followed him one day finding him in a gift shop.

"Y/n" He said surprised as you gave a small smile.

"Sorry" you said he shook his head smiling.

"I was just looking it's hard to find something beautiful in this world" He said holding up a necklace with a small red ruby in it.

"Beth?" you asked he nodded smiling.

"Hershel, Y/n" You turned seeing Rick a annoyed look on his face.

"Where fine Rick just looking at things" You said he eyed you but nodded not really happy with the answers.

"We best get going soon, sundown" You nodded looking through the necklaces. You saw a pendant of a small Phoenix attached to a leather lace.

"Why dont you take it?" Rick asked.

"I have a member of the law looking at me" He smiled at your comment it up himself before slipping it on your neck.

"Pretty sure you dont have to pay" He said walking away surprising you at his act.

You were going out on a run when Lori ran up to you.

"What's up?" you asked seeing her nervous face.

"Could you get me some things please?" You nodded as she handed you a list you gasped quietly giving her a kind smile before heading off with Glenn and Maggie. You went to a separate shop knowing they liked each other you found baby items she wanted a test an pills. Your heart sank at the pills but you couldn't deny her. You bagged some baby clothes and items before heading back to your car knowing Glenn and Maggie were probably up to something. You went back finding her in her tent.

"I bought a little extra in case" You said she smiled thanking you. You went to the house sighing you knew it would be a hard decision for her especially in this world.

She kept it she told you, you smiled at her saying it was the right thing to do. You said tou would help in anyway possible.

Soon enough everyone found out Rick knew before hand by his reaction and Shane glared. You wanted to punch him, Rick didnt let him anywhere near you it made your heart flutter but you would always ignore it.

Things were fine until the horde came sending everyone out in a panic. You managed to escape with Daryl worry filling your body. He drove back to the high way saying they would be there, they were apart from Andrea and Shane. Dale hobbled out as you rushed to him he was bit.

"I'm sorry" He said as everyone gathered around him. You grew close to Dale he was like a father you never had. He died that night as Daryl ended him before he turned.

You were out on the rode for months. Lori was well into her pregnancy now making Rick even more protective. You got sick though curse your weak immune system, You were coughing, dribbly nose and sore muscles. You tried to ignore it only making yourself worse as you moved with the group. You pushed yourself to much as you felt your world go fuzzy and you collasped. Everyone jumped you were behind the group Daryl was behind you as he saw you fell. He shook you but you were out.

"I'll carry er" he said in a gruff voice lifting you up. You finally woke by a warm fire the night already here. You got up quickly cursing when your head pounded.

"Here" You jumped at the sound of a voice Rick handed you some water which you took.

"Take these found them in a house" He said handing you some immune pills.

"Thank you" You said your voice croaky.

"Thank Daryl he carried you here" You nodded trying to find the archer but he wasn't insight. You sighed lying back against the pillow as Rixk sourced the area, a prison.

The next day you felt better the pills doing there job as you went with the group fighting the walkers. You and Rick went down one hall as you fought them off before falling into a coughing fit. You gasped for breath wishing it would just leave you alone. Rick's warm hand came to rest on your back patting gently.

"Deep breaths here" He handed you some water sitting you down. You finally gained control sighing against the cold wall. Rick kneeled down placing a hand against your forehead. You froze at his sudden actions his hand nice and cool.

"You should go back rest your still burning up" He said softly you shook your head getting up.

"No" you said stubbornly as you went on he sighed shaking his head following after you, you were a tough son of a bitch for sure.

[ ooc: ep 4 liveblog & opinions under the cut! this one got long winded because I had a lot that I was thinking about (and it took me twice the length of the episode to actually watch through it because I kept pausing to type oops) ]

yeeeesh that’s one way to start. thank you for letting bucky cry.

but also the look of pride on her face when she says “you are free” they’ve been working so hard and she’s so happy with the progress bucky has made ;_;

and now she’s so betrayed :(

but I’m also so glad Bucky learned xhosa that’s super important! <3 part of decolonization of the past involves respecting and learning and propagating languages and cultures that have been trodden over. Wakanda has been something of a safe place in that regard, and are now doing the outreach to help their continent and the world, but it takes the world of people within the majority putting in the effort and learning and embracing those cultures and languages (without appropriation, which I know is a fine line to walk sometimes) in order to really make progress. once it is no longer alien, it is also no longer scary, and can be held in proper esteem.

“sweet of you” shut your mouth Zemo xD

“she’s just a kid” thank you for your compassion Sam. and while she’s an extremist, I’m not sure whether Karli counts as a supremacist or just a terrorist? maybe she counts as genocidal if she’s truly trying to restore things to Blip conditions but it’s kind of unclear.

“the serum never corrupted Steve” “touché” YO EVEN HE ADMITS IT

Sam’s understanding of cultural habits (and there are many overlaps between various cultures and the ways they mourn) is such an asset here, and I’m glad that they’re pulling a contrast between the tech-driven, cold, calculating predictions made by certain people and organizations in other parts of Marvel and the general sort of soulful and instinctive approach here

Turkish delight. Excuse me but Narnia cemented the idea in so many people’s heads that it is this magical thing but it’s like superglue in your mouth. It is not irresistible, Zemo.

Legislation and social change as a result of violent action is nothing new. Every peaceful protest has been backed up by some kind of harm, whether it be economic, like a boycott, or physical, either damage to property or lives. I think instinctively people understand this, but it’s good to see it put in the spotlight.

Sam is “stranger danger” to these kids :/

“I know what happens when people say they’re going to help out... nothing.” Ouch.

The way Sam’s gaze falls at that too, because he knows theoretically that a lot of these injustices are happening and can empathize, but practically hearing it hurts. He doesn’t like not being trusted either, but I think he can probably understand why.

Zemo playing that psychology game! Kids love food and the idea that he must be a good person just for having a kid is dumb as hell but something that kids would gravitate towards. Smart man. Doubly smart for not telling them, Nat would approve if she didn’t hate him :P

Sam de-escalating is gonna be a trend I can just see it.

Cherry blossom tea? Interesting choice.

SHARON HI

Nat vc: gosh it’s nice to see someone competent around here.

ooooh they’re really reinforcing the idea of Captain America being a figurehead that inspires people

“heroes these days don’t have the luxury of keeping their hands clean” yeah well it’s because Steve had people like Bucky and Nat do do his dirty work, but sure

“all the people history just left out” OW

okay first of all Sam being the one who is insisting on reasoning with them because he knows what it’s like to come from an oppressed people !!! he knows grief and trauma !!! he can do this !!!!! I just know Walker is gonna fuck it up for them :P

second, Walker trying to emotionally manipulate Bucky? it’s a testament to how far he’s come that he doesn’t punch the guy immediately lol

Hoskins being the voice of reason as a foil for Walker again what?! this version of Lamar isn’t nearly as terrible as I expected.

Zemo calling that itty bitty girl his associate xD He really does understand the people here though... aaaand he’s getting handcuffed. Totally didn’t see that coming (he’ll probably break free anyway)

The conversation between Karli & Sam ;_;

“you’re either brilliant or hopelessly optimistic” “por quo no los dos.gif”

Walker trying to guilt Bucky again god he’s so dumb. I appreciate the fact that he’s ruthless but he’s so narrow minded in how he approaches problems. oh no I have an issue let’s punch it until it dies! come on man.

Karli is so heartbreakingly naive and that’s becoming more and more obvious. I love Sam opening her up like this wow.

WALKER FUCKING IT UP AS ALWAYS

and the cuffs empty WHAT DID I TELL YOU

god we were getting somewhere ;____;

oh good just what we need, serum in Walker’s hands. he was already awful he doesn’t need to be more awful gdi

“we separate them and then we kill Captain America” ...yes, we’re listening xD

I know crazy because I am crazy... oh boy we got some internalized stuff, but let’s play it off

still a little blame game going in terms of where the shield ended up I see

THE DORA MILAJE ARE HERE -swoon-

pOINTY STICKS I cackled oh boy he gonna get his ass WHOOPED

Sam is enjoying the hell out of this

Zemo watching and drinking

“Looking strong, John!” “Bucky”

oooh dear they tangling and Zemo’s getting away.

your arm’s off! no it’s not

WAIT WHAT DID AYO SAY BEFORE SHE SAID JAMES

they all got their asses kicked ah well. also the look on Walker’s face says he gonna serum himself up, the lil fucker. oh no someone’s better than you how will your ego ever survive.

a lil Battlestar logo!!! shut up that’s cute. they’re really making him halfway likeable here.

“power just makes a person more of themselves”

ohhhh okay time to unlock Walker’s traumatic backstory. at least he feels bad about the things he did. at least he knows that those medals of honor are covered in blood. people are at least partly made by their circumstances, and I wonder what he was like before the war. the only indication we have of it is him being a football star, and while I may not have had the best track record with those in my youth, that doesn’t mean there aren’t decent ones out there...

Sarah’s “my world doesn’t matter to America, so why should I care about its mascot?” Oh, we’re speaking to the disenfranchisement of marginalized people hardcore today okay. if anyone’s gotten this far in my overly long commentary I want you to know that this is the realest alright? it’s hard to be proud of a country and its symbols when it doesn’t do right by you, when the majority doesn’t do right by you. am I glad I was born here? sure. are there worse places to be? sure. am I proud to be an american? oof, man, don’t ask me that.

Karli is not pulling her punches, she’s threatening the whole fam. Sam isn’t gonna like that... He sounds like he’s trying to suppress panic instead of being angry on the phone call with Sarah. I think he understands what Karli is trying to do, even though he hates how. And he’s worried, because he’s always gonna be worried. Poor guy. And there’s the confrontation.

Sharon got their backs!

Oof, seeing the gun with the shield.

Gunshot, run, oh, listening, he’s already got the serum, maybe? Given how deeply that shield is embedded in the wall I’m gonna say yes. YUP I WAS RIGHT.

Something about the water dripping and Lemar’s face makes me think he may have been waterboarded at some point :( but maybe he’s just in a lot of pain.

THE KNIFE CATCH. YES YES YES. THE KNIFE FLIP. Nat is so hearteyes.

Ooh, we gotta upgrade that wingpack with Stark repulsors pls go Sam go

oh no. Lemar. fuck. FUCK.

oh good now you’ve done it. killing a guy as Captain America. fuck.

the blood on the shield as the last shot! ~cinematography~

hoooo I’m chilled. I knew something along these lines was coming but oof.

One shot: Happy 100th birthday

A/N: Okay I completely forgot about this xD. I wrote this for the 4th of July, Steve birthday, but I was on my holiday and it didn’t upload so I placed it in my queue to try again later… well it’s later… about a month later.. well hope you guys like it anyway :)

wordcount: 1730

Y/N pov

Being an Avenger was great, really. You travelled all over the world, you were able to use your skills to make the world a better place, but above all you had gained a whole new family. A family that was a bit broken, a family that, contrary to what the outside world might think, wasn’t perfect but you loved each other and that was all that mattered.

As a family you had a couple of unspoken rules, one of those rules being that whenever there was a special occasion, everyone would be present. And one of those occasions was coming up, one that was important to you most of all. The 100th birthday of your soon to be husband was coming up, and that was not going to be pass by unnoticed.

Steve didn’t really enjoy parties, especially not when he was supposed to be the centre of attention. That’s why you and the rest had been planning a special birthday dinner. You were involved in almost every decision that was being made, you picked the restaurant with Tony, decided the menu with Bucky, made a list of people to invite with Sam etcetera etcetera.

Everything went very smooth, until a week before you were called by Fury. He had a mission that was right up your alley, one that needed you to leave as quickly as you could. When you agreed to it, you had expected to be back in time. Hell Fury even promised you, you would be.

But here you were, it was the 3rd of July 5 minutes before twelve. And instead of lying safely and warm in Steve’s arms, you were hiding in the closet of some sort of psycho criminal. You were able to get an apology message to friday who would hopefully deliver it to Steve.

Steve pov

He hadn’t liked it when you left, not because there was a possibility that you would miss his birthday, for all he cared they would celebrate it a month later. But because you were on this mission alone. Ever since you were together he always tried to go with you, or to make sure one of the other was with you. Every time you went alone he would be afraid you wouldn’t make it back, not because he doubted your skills but because he knew it was part of the job.

The week had been slowly passing by, it was supposed to be his birthday in 30, 29, 28… well less than half a minute. “Happy birthday to me.” He sighed as he once again rolled over to your side of the bed. A cold spot, instead of it being filled by you warm, loving presence. Steve needed to get out of his bed, just to get his mind on something else. He swung his legs out of the bed, and made his way to the kitchen. He went through the fridge until he found something good to eat, it had your name on but you probably wouldn’t mind he thought. He sat down at the counter and started swiping through one of the tablets installed there.

“Mr Rogers, may I interrupt for a moment?” Friday called through the tablet.

“Sure, shoot.” There wasn’t really anything that could screw up his mood much more.

“I have a message for you from Miss Y/N, if you press the play button in the corner of your tablet it will automatically start playing.” She announced

“Thank you, friday appreciate it.” Steve stuffed another bite of food in his mouth before pressing the button. The video started playing, it was almost completely dark, he could barely make out the contours of your face. You voice was not louder than a whisper.

“Hi Steve, This is not really the way that I wanted it to go, but for now I don’t really have another option. I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday and apologize for not being there with you. I’m really sorry, I did everything I could to get back yesterday… just know that I love you very much and try to enjoy you birthday a bit will you? We really did our best and…” A loud bang interrupted you “I have to go, I love you.” The video was quickly cut off. Steve knew the video was meant to sooth his thoughts, to let him know that you were doing fine. Yet the abrupt ending of the video did everything but that. “Could you tell me where this video was send from Friday?” Steve asked

“I’m sorry Mr. Rogers, the location has been encrypted by a code. By the time I cracked it Miss Y/N will probably not be in the same spot anymore.”

“Right, okay thank you.” Of course you had made sure you encrypted your location, not only would it put you at risk, but you probably knew he was coming after you if he had your location. Steve decided to take another try of catching some sleep.

Y/N pov

That explosion was exactly what you had been waiting for. Now everything just had to go according to plan and maybe, just maybe you would make it for the final courses of Steve’s birthday dinner.

Steve Pov

Much to his surprise, Steve had been able to catch some sleep. He was woken up by the sound of his alarm. His morning started like any other, a morning run, a shower followed by breakfast. Breakfast is where it all started to be about his birthday. Tony was putting up the final decorations in the room, while Bucky and Wanda were preparing breakfast. “There is the old man.” Tony announced when Steve came walking in “Congratulations.” He said as he gave him a hug “Will you be able to make it to your seat or do you want me to grab your walker.”

“Very funny Tony, but physically I’m still 15 years younger than you are.” He laughed

“Ouch, getting sassier by the years.” Bucky walked over from the counter “Happy birthday Punk.”

“Alright, you guys with all the manly congratulations?” Wanda laughed when she kissed Steve on the cheek “Happy Birthday, Steve. Sam and Nat are on their way. Thor is joining later.” She told him

“Heard anything from y/n?” Bucky asked him, flipping the last pancake on a hot plate

“Yes, she is not going to make it. And the little video she made ended with an explosion… so I’m not exactly reassured that she’s safe.” He sighed

“Don’t worry about to much about her, she knows what she is doing.” Bucky tried

“Location was encrypted I assume?” Tony checked, just to be sure. Steve nodded. “Barnes is right she got this. Now have a seat, I’m getting hungry.”

The day went by fast, once Sam and Nat had arrived they had breakfast together followed by a couple of presents. One being the announcement that he wouldn’t get a fancy party tonight, but a dinner instead. Steve looked up from a package he was tearing open, when Sam’s phone started ringing. He quickly walked away before picking it up “hey, what’s wrong?” He could hear him say before he was out of hearing distance.

“Guys I have to go real quick, I’m back in a minute or 10.” Sam announced before taking his jacket from his seat.

Steve thought it was a bit suspicious, but decided not to pay to much attention to it. Like you told him, you guys had put a lot of effort in his birthday and he was not to ruin that by asking questions.

After the presents they went out to the park and enjoyed a relaxed day just hanging, talking and playing some football. A game that had became rather competitive since Bucky and Sam were the captains. The game was finally cut off by Tony who told them it was time to go to the restaurant. When they arrived Steve could tell that you helped picking out the restaurant, it wasn’t anything to fancy but still special enough to celebrate such an occasion. The courses consisted of everything that Steve liked, just presented in a more fancy way. There were even things on the menu that he hadn’t eaten since the 1940’s. They had gotten to the fourth course when Tony tabbed his knife against his glass, and got up from his chair. “Alright everyone, before we continue to the next course I wanted to say a few words.” “Oh god.” “Don’t worry Cap it’s all good.” Tony grinned “Steve I never really liked you when I grew up, and when we first met my impression of you wasn’t the best. And your impression of me, I assume was just as bad. But the more we worked together, the more I got to know and understand you, the more I started to like you. And know I’m happy to call you one of my closest friends. I hope nothing but the best for you in the future, with a happy marriage to the woman you love and everything else you want. To the next 100 years, to Steve.” Tony raised his glass. “Thank you Tony, I really appreciate it.” Steve got up from his chair to hug him “So before you sit down again, we have one last present for you.” Sam announced “What? No it’s already to much.” Steve protested but got a small box pressed into his hands. “Just open it already.” Steve tore of the paper from the package and inside there was a box. He opened the box where there was a little piece of paper. “So what does it say?” Wanda pushed “Turn around.” Steve read aloud, carefully he turned around being afraid of what his friends had planned for him. But what was behind him was far from scary “Happy Birthday.” You smiled before pressing a kiss on his lips. When he realized that you were actually here, he didn’t know how fast to wrap his arms around you “You made it.” “I wouldn’t miss it for the world.”
