BACKGROUND:

TW: VIOLENCE, SCHIZOPHRENIA, GHOSTS

Born to Ethan James and Haley Hughes, and has an older brother.

Is Axel's baby cousin.

Dad was a truck driver, and mom owned a paranormal shop called 'The Unknown'.

His mother would cause that she could hear voices and see things that weren't there. She believed in the paranormal, but as years went on, something darker seemed to be at play. Doctors would diagnose her with Schizophrenia.

When his dad was away on business, at the age of 4, Haley would try to drown LT in the bathtub; claiming that he was possessed. His older brother would be the one to help save him, before locking themselves in a room and waiting for the cops.

His mom would be placed in a mental institution; where she'd have her meds regulated and she seemed to be getting better.

But after she attacks a nurse and nearly kills her; it was made clear that she would be safest to remind institutionalized.

As LT got older, he'd start to believe in some of the things his mother did. At 13, he saw his first ghost, 14 when he explored his first haunted house, 16 when he got his first proof, 19 when he reopened his mother's paranormal shop 'The Unknown', and 20 when he started his Youtube channel 'Exploring the Unknown'.

Despite gaining a following on his Youtube channel, LT would also bartend and do freelance photography on the side.

SOME HEADCANONS:

The family owed paranormal shop 'The Unknown' is mainly opened around August until November, to account for the Fall and Spooky season.

Has random tattoos shattered across his body. (Very much what Mason Gooding has done on his)

Is known to wear one earring, usually something that dangles.

Truly believes in ghosts and the paranormal. Some buy into that as well, others just think he's as crazy as his mom.

Still visits his mom from time to time.

Since his dad retired from truck driving, the 3 James boys can be found together often.

Is goofy, fun, life of the party, nerdy, laid back.

Runs a Youtube channel that shows his paranormal adventures.

Enjoys a good haunted house like no one's business.

Enjoys photography.

Loves video games, computer stuff, movie editing, online sells, coming up with new fun drinks.

WANTED CONNECTIONS:

FRIENDS: He is super sociable, and fun to be around.

BEST FRIEND/RIDE OR DIE: His homie right here, and very likely someone who humors his paranormal obsession.

OLDER BROTHER: WC to be posted.

ENEMIES/I DON’T REALLY LIKE YOU: Not everyone likes everyone.

COWORKERS: Anyone who might also bartend, or does freelance photography, or odd jobs.

CLIENTS: Gets served alcohol from him, or gets photos taken. Or even watches his Youtube channel. Or has been known to shop at his family shop.

PARANORMAL FRIENDS: These are the friends that also believe in ghosts and enjoy teaming along with him for his crazy adventures.

PEOPLE WHO JUST THINK HE'S AS CRAZY AS HIS MOM: A negative connection here, but those who don't believe, mainly.

EXES: I'm up for literally just about any kind of ex one could have here.

FWBS/HOOK UPS: We know how these goes. Can be male or female.

biography

Trigger Warnings: Parental Neglect, Substance Abuse, Criminal Activity

Chiara Mazzochetti’s life has been anything but ordinary. Born and raised in Wilmington, a town now haunted by its tragic past, she grew up in a family that was the epitome of dysfunction. Her parents, both immigrants from Italy, struggled to make ends meet and often took out their frustrations on their children. Chiara, the youngest of three, bore the brunt of their anger and neglect.

Despite her harsh upbringing, Chiara found solace in dance. From a young age, she was captivated by the grace and freedom it offered. She would spend hours mimicking the moves she saw on TV, dreaming of one day escaping her grim reality. Her passion for dance became her refuge, a place where she could forget her troubles and imagine a brighter future.

Her school recognized her talent, and she was offered dance classes as part of an after-school program. Determined to develop her skills, she took on various jobs to afford additional dance lessons. By her late teens, she was performing in local talent shows and small events, earning praise for her natural talent and dedication.

As she entered adulthood, Wilmington's dark history cast a long shadow over her life. The town, once a thriving vacation spot, had never fully recovered from the scandal that had plagued it decades earlier. Despite the rumors and gossip that still circulated, Chiara had little time for such distractions. She was focused on survival.

Life took a much darker turn when Chiara’s brother got involved in illegal activities, owing a significant debt to dangerous people. To help him out, Chiara reluctantly accepted a job as a dancer at Bare Necessities, to make fast cash. In the long haul, she became well requested there and the club provided her with a steady income. While the job was far from glamorous, it felt hard to get out of.

To those who knew her well, Chiara was much more than a dancer. She occasionally modeled for local photographers and traveled to nearby cities for gigs, showcasing her versatility and ambition. Her performances, whether on stage or in front of a camera, were a show of resilience and determination. Life was shit, but she never really gave up.

As best as she can, Chiara keeps her job at Bare Necessities a closely guarded. She fears the judgment and rejection that might come from those who only see the surface of her life. Her secret weights heavily on her and the family.

Chiara is easygoing and artistic in her daily life, often found sketching, tanning at the beach or photographing something. She is flirty and enjoys socializing, although she tends to drink a lot, finding it helps her cope with the stresses of her life. At work, she adopts a different persona—sexier, darker, and intense. In the face of uncertainty, Chiara remains determined to carve out a better future for herself.

Portrait Series, Babies, 6-11 Months – Wilmington, Delaware As a mom of 3, I know just how fast time can fly when your kiddos are little. One minute they’re teeny tiny newborns snuggled in your arms and the next you have to babyproof the house because they’re toddling all over, opening every door and cabinet they can get to. It just goes by so fast!  That’s probably why babies aged 6-11 months…

Joshua Jackson interview with "Mr Porter" (2021)

Minutes before Mr Joshua Jackson joins me in a booth for a Friday afternoon drink at a vibey hotel bar in Santa Monica, he’s confronted by his past. Or rather, a woman in her early twenties who is binge-watching Dawson’s Creek, the teen show about a close-knit group of high-school friends coming of age in a sleepy American town, which made Jackson incredibly famous between 1998 and 2003. The series, which also made household names of Ms Michelle Williams and Ms Katie Holmes, went off air 18 years ago, but is now streaming on Netflix, to the bemusement of Jackson, who played lovable rogue Pacey Witter. “This girl was like, ‘Are you...?’ And I’m like, ‘Yes, I am. He got old. I’m sorry to break it to you,’” he says, before ordering an iced tea and a charcuterie board to tide him over until dinner time. “It always surprises me when young people say they’ve just got into Dawson’s Creek. I’m like, ‘Is it a costume drama to you? Do you feel like you’re watching a historical documentary?’”

The idea of a Friends-style reunion episode or a Sex And The City revival feels equally far-fetched to Canadian-born Jackson, now 43 and wearing it well in a pale green linen shirt and tailored linen trousers by Oliver Spencer that complement his fading brown hair and Cali-tanned skin.

“I don’t know why you’d want to [bring it back],” he says. “Nobody needs to know what those characters are doing in middle age. We left them in a nice place. Nobody needs to see that Pacey’s back hurts. I don’t think we need that update.”

And Jackson doesn’t need Dawson’s Creek. From Mr JJ Abrams’ sci-fi series Fringe (2008-2013) to the Golden Globe award-winning The Affair (2014-2019), from Ms Ava DuVernay’s ground-breaking true-crime drama When They See Us (2019) to the recent Ms Reese Witherspoon and Ms Kerry Washington-produced Little Fires Everywhere (2020), he has commanded the small screen – with a collection of dynamic and diverse work – ever since.

His latest role as Mr Christopher Duntsch, the Texas surgeon convicted of gross malpractice when 33 of his patients were left seriously injured after he operated on them and two of them died, in chilling Peacock crime drama Dr Death, is only stepping his career up another gear.

“I’ve never played anyone irredeemable before,” says Jackson, who is joined in the eight-part series (based on the 2018 Wondery podcast of the same name) by Messrs Christian Slater and Alec Baldwin. “He is charming, gregarious and has a high-level intellect, but he’s also a misogynist, probably a sociopath, certainly a narcissist and a complete incompetent who is incapable of seeing himself.”

If Duntsch is terrifying, then Jackson’s portrayal is even more so. The artist formerly known as Pacey is virtually unrecognisable (thanks to prosthetics) in the opening scene, but the real challenge for Jackson was allowing himself to view someone who is so “spectacularly evil” as a human being in order to walk in his shoes. “It’s a more damning portrayal of the man to make him into a human being, rather than just make him the bad guy,” he says. “He really believes he’s the hero, he’s the genius and that he’s the victim, so once I got past my own judgment, all the other things fell into place.”

Jackson might have his pick of stellar roles – and challenges – now, but it has not happened by accident. Take it from someone who has been in the business since landing his first job aged 14 in Disney’s live-action movie series The Mighty Ducks, opposite Brat Pack alumnus Mr Emilio Estevez.

“You try to make it look like it happens accidentally,” he says, “but there is no way to do this and not be ambitious. I’d say I’m extremely ambitious because I’ve been doing this cutthroat job for nearly 30 years. I’m in the pay-off phase of my career now. One of the benefits of surviving for as long as I have is you get to learn from your own mistakes.”

Such as? “I wouldn’t say, ‘I wish I hadn’t done that,’ because it all becomes bricks in a path, but [after Dawson’s Creek] I was not choosy enough about the things I was doing. You get stuck. You start trying to perform the performance you think people are hoping to see you do. I was so used to working all the time that I just worked all the time. There was definitely a conscious moment in my mid-twenties when I realised I wasn’t really enjoying the work that I was doing. My manager at the time just said, ‘Take a breath. You’re burnt out.’”

The turning point came in 2005, when Jackson was offered a role in the two-hander Mr David Mamet play A Life In The Theatre, opposite Sir Patrick Stewart. “God bless him, Patrick could have made my life miserable because I had no idea what I was doing, ” he says. “I hadn’t been on stage since I was a kid and now I was in the West End in over my head. But it reminded me that I actually enjoyed being an actor, that it’s not about the red carpet or travelling around the world. What I really enjoy is working on good material with good people.”

It’s no surprise Jackson’s time on Dawson’s Creek led to a career crisis. From the ages of 19 to 24, he lived with his fellow cast mates in Wilmington, North Carolina, filming day in, day out, in an arrangement he likens to college. “You get to the end and they’re like, ‘Here’s your degree. Go live now. You’re an adult. Go out into the world,’” he says.

But most graduates don’t have to deal with global fame. “It’s transitory. You’re only ever cool for a moment and then you become much less cool. I was always pretty dubious about flatterers,” he says, recalling a time he was stung in London in the mid-2000s. “I went on a date in Hyde Park with a woman whose name I will not use – she was socialite-famous – and she was acting completely bizarre, looking over her shoulder the whole time. I came to find out that she had hired a photographer to follow us through the park and gave a whole story to the tabloids about how I was going to meet her family.”

It was his growing fortune, rather than fame, that caused Jackson the most anxiety. “Suddenly, at 19 years old, I was making more in a week than most of my friends’ parents would make in a year,” he says. “It was lovely to have the money, but it was that feeling of nobody is worth that kind of money. You feel like a fraud and it took me a long time to forgive myself for not being the thing that I was perceived as.”

Born in Vancouver, but raised in Topanga, California, until he was eight (before moving back to Vancouver following his parents’ divorce), Jackson bought his childhood home in 2001 and lives in it today with his wife, British Queen & Slim actor Ms Jodie Turner-Smith, and their 15-month-old daughter.

“My father unfortunately was not a good father or a husband and exited the scene, but that house in Topanga was where everything felt simple, so it was a very healing thing for me to do,” he says. Fast-forward to 2021 and his baby daughter now sleeps in her father’s childhood bedroom. “There was a mural of a dragon on the wall in that room that I couldn’t believe was still there, years later. The owner [who sold him the house] said, ‘I knew it meant a lot to somebody and that they were going to come back for it some day.’”

Becoming a first-time parent during a pandemic sounds stressful, but it afforded Jackson months at home with his wife and child that his normal work schedule wouldn’t have allowed.

“I now recognise how perverse the way that we have set up our society is,” he says. “There is not a father I know who works a regular job who didn’t go back to the office a week later. It’s robbing that man of the opportunity to bond with his child and spend time with his partner.”

Despite his obvious career ambitions, fatherhood has changed Jackson’s priorities in “every possible way”, he says. “It’s 100 per cent changed how I approach my work and my life. That has been made so clear to me in this past year. For me to feel good about what I’m doing day to day, my family has to be the central focus.

“There are plenty of things left for me to do, but now the thing that gets me excited is experiencing the world through my daughter’s eyes. I can’t wait to take her scuba diving. I can’t wait to take her skiing. I can’t wait to read a great book with her. I’m not worried at all she’ll be a wallflower. She’s been a character from the word go.”

Jackson met Turner-Smith, 34, two days after his 40th birthday. He had been single since his 10-year relationship with German actress Ms Diane Kruger ended in 2016. ���I was not looking to fall in love again or meet the mother of my child, but life has other plans for you,” he says.

The couple met at a party. Turner-Smith was wearing the same The Future Is Female Ejaculation T-shirt Ms Tessa Thompson’s character, Detroit, wears in the 2018 film Sorry To Bother You. “That’s what I used to break the ice. I shouted, ‘Detroit!’ across the room. Not the smoothest thing I’ve ever done, but it worked. We were pretty much inseparable from the word go. It was a whirlwind romance and I can tell my daughter I literally saw her mother across a room and thought, ‘I have to be next to this woman.’”

A self-confessed “useless” shopper, Jackson gives his wife full credit for his current wardrobe. He is jewellery-free, apart from a wedding band and a gold signet “JJ” ring on his little finger (a present from his wife), and discovered tailored sweatsuits (by Stampd and Reigning Champ) in the pandemic.

“Jodie has influence in the way that a wonderful wife encourages you, through love, to dress well. She was like, ‘We’re going to throw away all the sweatpants from your past and I’m going to get you some that actually make you look like an adult male and you will still feel comfortable around the house,’ and I’m like, ‘What an amazing idea!’ Who knew you could get sweatsuits that actually look good on your body?”

Jackson’s style has evolved, he says, “from slovenly teen to it’s-nice-when-your-clothes-actually-fit-you”. The penny dropped after he auditioned for his former co-star Estevez, who was directing the 2006 Mr Robert Kennedy biopic Bobby. He said to me, ‘You only got this job because I know you. You came in here to play a very well-put together 1960s political operative and you’re wearing jeans and a hoodie.’

“I had to grow up a little bit. We are very much raised in Canada to never, ever show off, so it took me a while to recognise it’s OK to look good when you go out.”

Still, when you’ve grown up in front of the camera, “every pimple literally documented”, and lived (very successfully) to tell the tale, you can probably be forgiven for the odd fashion faux pas.

“I wore a silk Ascot to an event once in Paris and I still have nightmares about it,” he says. “I looked like Fred from Scooby Doo, but you live and learn.”

On November 17th back in 1983 the Ramirez family was completed. Amanda nad Joseph Ramirez had welcomed their third and final child into this World at 6:30 in the morning, with two older siblings named Joseph and Viviane impatiently waiting for their new sibling. Another beautiful baby girl was born and everyone wasn’t surprised one bit. They decided to name her Izabella Taylor Ramirez, and that was a name you were going to want to remember. The moment she opened up those beautiful brown eyes and starred up at her mother and father, they were hooked and in love and knew that she was going to be something special. They knew that somehow she was going to change the World a little bit and impact a lot of people.

Izabella’s childhood was pretty much perfect. She had two older siblings whom she loved, parents who were her best friends and a dog that she took care of. Living right smack on the the beach in Wilmington, North Carolina it helped that the girl was a fan of salty air and sea hair. She would spend hours when she wasn’t in school in the ocean, swimming until the sun went down. Her parents had taught her however that education was the most important thing, and even though Izabella was labeled as the Wallflower early on throughout her school years, she studied hard and always got straight A’s. She made a good group of friends and never really felt alone while growing up. Izabella was really overall a happy kid. Aside from surfing, her hobbies included volleyball as she was placed on the varsity volleyball team in high school, she was also a fan of reading and writing. Even if Izabella was considered as a wallflower, the girl was a big part of her school and wrote for her schools newspaper and was on the yearbook committee. It probably wasn’t the best clubs to be apart of, but Izzy didn’t care. In her Junior year of high school when you’re supposed to know what you want to do in life, Izzy figured out she really loved writing. Being editor in chief for her high school newspaper really helped with finding that passion. Getting along with her older siblings, it did help that they were supportive when she had told them she wanted to get into photography and create a blog. On her free days when she wasn’t so busy, that’s what the brunette was doing, she was blogging and becoming obsessed with the World within it.

She soon got into fashion, and watched her blog soar with the content she was posting. When Izabella graduated from high school with honor roll and other achievements, she decided to move out of her small town of Wilmington to New York City. She got accepted into FIT, and majored in Fashion Design, and minored in Film and Media. In college, Izzy pretty much kept to herself but again made a good group of friends and kept to her studies. She didn’t party much, but whenever she did people around Campus knew who she was due to her blog.

Never really getting used to the popularity, Izabella realized she was more than just a blogger. She was a content creator, and had decided during her Senior year of college that she wanted to take this job seriously. After researching more about the job she’s found a passion for, Izabella���s followers grew and grew and grew. She would have never expected it to grow this much. Though Izzy was proud of it. Her blog and YouTube channel was a huge success.

When graduating from FIT again with honor roll and those other achievements, Izabella realized she still loved photography. During the time she’d come home, she decided to take it up upon herself to find a job that included photography. It was the summer time throughout her teenage years, where worked at her local Aquarium. Taking up the job again, this time she became a photographer for them. However, after a few years of living back home, Izabella figured it was time to move again but this time she moved to some place she’s never been before to get a fresh start, Atlanta, Georgia. Georgia was somewhere she always saw herself settling down in.

It was a new city, with a new home and new people. She was twenty-five at the time, twenty-five and trying to figure out the rest of her life. Trying to figure out other little side gigs she could take on. Izabella was always a busy bee, she liked that about herself. She liked the hustle. Atlanta was good for that kind of mindset. Still going strong with her blog and youtube channel, it wasn’t until she met the love of her life and that’s when everything changed. At twenty-eight, being successful and loving Atlanta, she was set up on a blind date by her best friend who also happened to be her assistant. Izabella wasn’t looking for love. She never even dated. Sure, she’s dated while she was in high school and college here and there but nothing serious. Though meeting Nicholas Sanchez had changed her life. He was tall, dark and handsome, just her type and Izabella fell in love with him. She fell in love with him the moment she met him. The two dated for a few years, and at thirty-three they got married. It was late in the game but they didn’t care. At thirty-four, they started trying for a baby, but the two were having trouble. Finally after a couple of failed attempts at IVF, they welcomed their miracle baby at thirty-six and named her Violet Grace Sanchez. Things were perfect for them. Izabella, Nicholas and Violet were perfect, happy and healthy. That wasn’t until at nine months that things took a turn. At nine months old, that was when Violet was diagnosed with Leukemia and the doctors had told Nicholas and Izabella that she only had a little bit left to live.

It had devastated & destroyed them. The news about Violet, their miracle baby had devastated Nicholas and Izabella and the two were on thin ice with one another. They fought about it constantly. As time went on when Violet got sick, she just got worse and worse. The doctors tried everything, but unfortunately just right after her first birthday, Violet had sadly passed away. It destroyed Izabella. The loss of her baby girl had destroyed everything in her. It ruined her marriage to the love of her life, Nicholas and the two had decided to separate. They weren’t divorced. They separated. It was time that the two needed. Time apart to figure things out. They were both lost without their daughter. Their beautiful baby girl.

Izabella always loved to travel and always dreamed about starting over in another town, and that’s exactly what she did. Still being a content creator, and now a freelance photographer, it has been a couple of years since Violet’s passing and Izabella made the decision to move to a different Country. Living in Vancouver, Canada for two years now, she’s been working at another Aquarium and continues with her blog. She continued with her Youtube Channel and is active on instagram and twitter, she has gained a lot more followers and is still passionate about what she does.

In her Junior year of high school when you’re supposed to know what you want to do in life, Hayden figured out she really loved writing. Being editor in chief for her high school newspaper really helped with finding that passion. Getting along with her siblings, it helped that they were supportive when Hayden had told them she wanted to get into photography and create a blog. On her free days when she wasn’t so busy, that’s what the brunette was doing, was blogging and becoming obsessed with the World within it. 

She soon got into fashion, and watched her blog soar with the content she was posting. When Hayden graduated from high school with honor roll and other achievements, Hayden decided to move out of her small town of Wilmington to New York City. She got accepted into FIT, and majored in Fashion Design, and minored in Film and Media. In college, Hayden pretty much kept to herself but again made a good group of friends. She didn’t party much, but whenever she did people around Campus knew who she was due to her blog. Never really getting used to the popularity, Hayden realized she was more than just a blogger. She was a content creator, and had decided during her Senior year of college that she wanted to take this job seriously. After researching more about the job she’s found a passion for, Hayden’s followers grew and grew. 

When graduating from FIT again with honor roll and other achievements, once again always being good about school, Hayden realized she still loved photography. During the time she’d come home, Hayden decided to take it up upon herself to find a job that included photography. During the summer time throughout her teenage years, she worked at her local Aquarium. Taking up the job again, this time she became a photographer for them. However, after a few years of living back home, Hayden figured it was time to move again but this time she moved to some place she’s never been before to get a fresh start, which was Somerton, Maine. Hayden always loved to travel and always dreamed about starting over in another tiny town, and that’s what she did. Still being a content creator, and now a freelance photographer, Hayden couldn’t of been happier with the decision she has made. Living in Somerton for two years, she’s been working at another Aquarium and continues with her blog. She now has a Youtube Channel and is active on instagram and twitter, she has gained a ton of followers and is still passionate about what she does.

Hope in Change - Part Five

Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four

No one in Fergus and Marsali’s house slept well that night, first waiting anxiously for his return and whatever news he might bring of Murtagh and the Regulators. They knew the governor’s plan had been foiled but that only made Fergus’ prolonged absence more nerve wracking.

Of course, the news he burst through the door with was more shocking than anything they could have anticipated.

Brianna was in Wilmington. In 1769. She had been looking for them, seeking a guide to take her to the Ridge when she happened upon Murtagh.

Marsali was the one to tell Fergus to sit, keep his voice down so as not to wake the baby, and to start again from the beginning. As he went through his evening chronologically, Claire slid her hand into Jamie’s. His fingers trembled. Hers were cold.

When there was nothing left to do but go to bed and wait for the morning to come, Claire rose, gently rousing Jamie from his silent shock, and easing him to their room.

“Are you alright?” she asked quietly, having shut the door behind them. He looked dazed, sitting on the edge of the bed and blinking at his surroundings as if unclear how or when he’d gotten there.

“I… dinna ken. She… I hadna thought… Why? Why should she be here? What could have caused her to come through the stones?”

Claire stood in front of him and bent at the waist to press a kiss to his forehead, drawing his eyes up to look into her own. “You don’t think having a chance to meet you had anything to do with it?”

“I’m no worth the risk of the stones,” he asserted, a sad smile coming to his face when he saw Claire’s frown. “I still dinna ken why ye’ve no realized that yerself, but as ye’re here and I’m a selfish enough man, it doesna seem right to be pointin’ it out to ye too often.”

“It doesn’t really matter why she’s here,” Claire said, showing how much she cared for his comments by refusing to acknowledge them. “All that matters is that she is here.”

“Ye’ve missed her, Sassenach.”

“Of course I have. But as keen as I am to see her again myself, I’m more eager for the two of you to meet and know one another. You… have no idea how many times I wished and dreamt—hopelessly—that you could have known each other. It seemed… so unfair to both of you that you were never given that chance… And now you have it.”

“Claire… I dinna ken as I’m brave enough,” Jamie murmured. “What must she think of me? To send ye both away like that before Culloden… To go to that battlefield with a mind to die… There were so many days I had convinced myself that livin’ through it when so many were killed was punishment for wishing my life over, for tryin’ to end it wi’out doin’ it myself… aimin’ for the loop hole. And then now—takin’ ye away from her when ye learnt I hadna died. Forcin’ the truth upon her when she could ha’ gone her whole life without that weighin’ on her…”

“She knows the truth and she can make up her own mind about you,” Claire told him, sitting beside him at last and laying her head against his shoulder. “I’m the one who chose to leave. You had no say in it one way or another—and she knows that. She was the one who gave me the final nudge… Let’s not think about it anymore.”

“Ye ken well enough, that’s no goin’ to happen,” Jamie muttered.

“Not unless we force ourselves to think of something else. What do you think are the odds that of all the people in Wilmington, she ran into Murtagh?”

“As if I dinna already have enough to thank him for, now I have his watching over Brianna and restoring her to us to add to the list.”

“I cannot wait to show off the cabin,” Claire said, lying back on the bed and staring up at the bed clothes. “She’ll be amazed to learn all about how you built it.”

“It’s no as impressive as houses are in yer time, Sassenach, I’m sure.” He lay back next to her, both of them with their legs hanging off the edge of the bed.

“There aren’t many homeowners who build their houses themselves. And she learned about hunting and camping when she was younger…”

They talked through some of the night and then fell into a silence that balanced their growing nerves with the desire to be away from the city and headed home with their daughter along for the ride.

Brianna spotted them before they were able to make out her and Murtagh through the trees.

“Mama!” she cried, freezing in place for a moment while Claire’s eyes scanned the brush.

“Bree,” Claire breathed when her eyes locked on Brianna’s. They both began to run but Brianna was a little faster. She nearly knocked Claire to the ground as she threw her arms around her mother’s neck and began crying with relief, rubbing her wet eyes against Claire the way she had when she was a baby.

“I’ve missed you, Mama,” she sobbed.

“I’ve missed you, too,” Claire assured her, too numb with surprise and relief to squeeze Brianna as tightly as she wanted.

“I have to tell you—I have to warn you,” Brianna pulled back, sputtering and sniffling, her eyes scanning the way Claire had come to be sure Fergus wouldn’t overhear. From the conversation they’d had the evening before, it didn’t appear to her that he knew the whole truth of Claire’s disappearance.

She lost her train of thought the moment her attention landed on Jamie.

He nodded at her with tears in his eyes and a trembling smile on his face. Claire turned, Brianna still firmly within her grasp.

“That’s him?” Brianna asked in a whisper.

“Yes.” Claire took a small step toward him and Brianna followed.

“You’re… really real,” Brianna observed, her voice still rough and barely audible. Her cheeks flushed with self-consciousness and uncertainty.

Jamie heard her and his smile took a more sure form.

“I ken what ye mean. I’ve seen the photographs yer mother brought… but they dinna do ye justice. And… I think I’d like to hear yer side to some of the stories she’s told,” Jamie mused, his gaze too eager to take in as many details of Brianna as possible.

Brianna looked to her mother and began to relax. “That depends on what stories she’s told about me.”

“Each and every one I can remember,” Claire promised her.

They were at last close enough to touch but Claire was the only one  who dared, keeping in constant contact with Brianna as though to anchor her in place.

“It’ll never be enough,” Jamie said, reaching a hand hesitantly to Brianna’s cheek. “I want to know everything there is to know about ye—what it was like to watch ye growin’ up what it is tha’s changed since ye parted… if ye can ever forgive me…”

She rolled her eyes and scoffed. “Forgive you? Why would you think you need my forgiveness?”

“What have I done that doesna beg yer forgiveness? I wasna there to protect ye or care for ye. I didna help ye wi’ yer first steps or hold ye to help ye sleep at night…”

“You’re here now,” Brianna pointed out with a playful smile and tears in her eyes. “Or maybe I’m here now.” She stepped up to him and slipped her arms around him, laying her cheek against his chest and sighing when his arms came up around her, holding her closer.

Four baby southern devil scorpions [also known as bark scorpions, Vaejovis carolinianus] found alone in the woods behind the photographer’s home- unusual considering the mother of this species normally rears her babies on her back as their exoskeletons harden. Luckily the photographer was able to watch out for them until they were sufficiently old enough to survive in the wild. Scorpions found in Wilmington, North Carolina by David Hoover.

On September 17th back in 1989, the Diaz family was completed. Elizabeth and Antonio Diaz had welcomed their third and final child into this World at 6:30 in the morning, with two older daughters named Ryleigh and Izabella impatiently waiting for their new sibling. Another beautiful baby girl was born and everyone wasn’t surprised one bit, they decided to name her Viviane Elizabeth Diaz. Her beautiful brown eyes opened and starred up at her mother and father, and they couldn’t of been happier and more in love with the little one. Viviane Elizabeth Diaz was a name to remember.

Viviane’s childhood was pretty much perfect. She had two older siblings whom she loved, parents who were her best friends and a dog that she took care of. Living right smack on the the beach in Wilmington, North Carolina it helped that the girl was a fan of salty air and sea hair. She would spend hours when she wasn’t in school in the ocean, swimming until the sun went down. Her parents had taught her however that education was the most important thing, and even though Viviane was labeled as the Wallflower early on throughout her school years, she studied hard and always got straight A’s. She made a good group of friends and never really felt alone while growing up. Viviane was really overall a happy kid. Aside from surfing, her hobbies included volleyball as she was placed on the junior varsity volleyball team in high school, she was also a fan of reading and writing. Even if Viviane was considered as a wallflower, the girl was a big part of her school and wrote for her schools newspaper and was on the Yearbook committee. It probably wasn’t the best clubs to be apart of, but Viviane didn’t care. In her Junior year of high school when you’re supposed to know what you want to do in life, Viv figured out she really loved writing. Being editor in chief for her high school newspaper really helped with finding that passion. Getting along with her older sisters, it helped that they were supportive when she had told them she wanted to get into photography and create a blog. On her free days when she wasn’t so busy, that’s what the brunette was doing, she was blogging and becoming obsessed with the World within it.

She soon got into fashion, and watched her blog soar with the content she was posting. When Viviane graduated from high school with honor roll and other achievements, she decided to move out of her small town of Wilmington to New York City. She got accepted into FIT, and majored in Fashion Design, and minored in Film and Media. In college, Viviane pretty much kept to herself but again made a good group of friends and kept to her studies. She didn’t party much, but whenever she did people around Campus knew who she was due to her blog. Never really getting used to the popularity, Viviane realized she was more than just a blogger. She was a content creator, and had decided during her Senior year of college that she wanted to take this job seriously. After researching more about the job she’s found a passion for, Viviane’s followers grew and grew and grew. She would have never expected it to grow this much.

When graduating from FIT again with honor roll and those other achievements, once again always being good about school, Viviane realized she still loved photography. During the time she’d come home, she decided to take it up upon herself to find a job that included photography. During the summer time throughout her teenage years, she worked at her local Aquarium. Taking up the job again, this time she became a photographer for them. However, after a few years of living back home, Viviane figured it was time to move again but this time she moved to some place she’s never been before to get a fresh start, which was Eureka, California. Viviane always loved to travel and always dreamed about starting over in another town, and that’s what she did. Still being a content creator, and now a freelance photographer, Viviane couldn’t of been happier with the decision she has made. Living in Eureka for twelve years now, she’s been working at another Aquarium and continues with her blog. She now has a Youtube Channel and is active on instagram and twitter, she has gained a ton of followers and is still passionate about what she does.

WELCOME TO MONLEON:

FULL NAME: Hayden Diaz

OCCUPATION: Influencer, freelance photographer

AGE & D.O.B.: 39, October 31st 1981

RESIDENCE: South Poinsettia

ORIGINALLY FROM: Wilmington, North Carolina

HOW LONG THEY’VE BEEN IN TOWN: 6 years

BIOGRAPHY:

On October 31st back in 1981, the Diaz family was completed. Elizabeth and Antonio Diaz had welcomed their third and final child into this World at 6:30 in the morning, with two older children named Thomas and Ryleigh impatiently waiting for their new sibling. Another beautiful baby girl was born and everyone wasn’t surprised one bit, they decided to name her Hayden. Her beautiful brown eyes opened and starred up at her mother and father, and they couldn’t of been happier and more in love with the little one. Hayden Amelia Davis was a name to remember.

Hayden’s childhood was pretty much perfect. She had two older siblings whom she loved, parents who were her best friends and a dog that she took care of. Living right smack on the the beach in Wilmington, North Carolina it helped that the girl was a fan of salty air and sea hair. Hayden would spend hours when she wasn’t in school in the ocean, swimming until the sun went down. Her parents had taught her however that education was the most important thing, and even though Hayden was labeled as the Wallflower early on throughout her school years, she studied hard and always got straight A’s. She made a good group of friends and never really felt alone while growing up. Hayden was really a happy kid. Aside from surfing, her hobbies included volleyball as she was placed on the junior varsity volleyball team in high school, she was also a fan of reading and writing. Even if Hayden was considered as a wallflower, the girl was a big part of her school and wrote for her schools newspaper and was on the Yearbook committee. It probably wasn’t the best clubs to be apart of, but Hayden didn’t care. In her Junior year of high school when you’re supposed to know what you want to do in life, Hayden figured out she really loved writing. Being editor in chief for her high school newspaper really helped with finding that passion. Getting along with her siblings, it helped that they were supportive when Hayden had told them she wanted to get into photography and create a blog. On her free days when she wasn’t so busy, that’s what the brunette was doing, was blogging and becoming obsessed with the World within it.

She soon got into fashion, and watched her blog soar with the content she was posting. When Hayden graduated from high school with honor roll and other achievements, Hayden decided to move out of her small town of Wilmington to New York City. She got accepted into FIT, and majored in Fashion Design, and minored in Film and Media. In college, Hayden pretty much kept to herself but again made a good group of friends.

She was a content creator, and had decided during her Senior year of college that she wanted to take this job seriously. After researching more about the job she’s found a passion for, Hayden’s followers grew and grew.

When graduating from FIT again with honor roll and other achievements, once again always being good about school, Hayden realized she still loved photography. During the time she’d come home, Hayden decided to take it up upon herself to find a job that included photography. During the summer time throughout her teenage years, she worked at her local Aquarium. Taking up the job again, this time she became a photographer for them. However, after a few years of living back home, Hayden figured it was time to move again but this time she moved to some place she’s never been before to get a fresh start, which was Monleon, Florida. Hayden always loved to travel and always dreamed about starting over in another town, and that’s what she did. Still being a content creator, and now a freelance photographer, Hayden couldn’t of been happier with the decision she has made.

Believe it or not, the 2010 Flames season is winding down. The Flames wrapped up their GSL regular season with a 4-2 win over Kearsarge on Sunday afternoon. Prior to that game, the Flames played the North Shore Shamrocks three times in twenty-five hours, at three different locations. The Flames lost on Saturday morning at JFK, 4-2. Then at West Side Arena in the afternoon, the Flames came back from a 3-1 deficit to tie the game, 3-3 and that is how it ended. The next morning it was an awakening 0°F when we left for Wilmington, MA for the third game of the weekend series. The Flames came out flying and jumped to a 4-1 lead before winning it, 6-1.

I took some pictures of the morning games each day and have shared those below. Click on the pictures you like to open the gallery and then click again to zoom in if you like. Enjoy.

Shamrocks at Flames, JFK, Saturday morning

#gallery-0-9 { margin: auto; } #gallery-0-9 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 50%; } #gallery-0-9 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-0-9 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

Honestly, I have a lot of Travis pics in this game because he faced a lot of shots. Here the puck misses his glove.

The puck is on the ice and motion gets moving. Jordan isn’t convinced.

It’s hard to get through layers of defense when all 5 skaters are back on D.

On the first day of the weekend my hockey team gave to me, a shot on net and a wide open Pear Tree. Er, uh, Petrie.

Teddy, in his best inner Rodney Dangerfield voice, “Uhhh, Hey! Who moved the net?!?”

I think this puck went in but that’s a pretty solid effort from the goaltender.

This is where the team told coach that their plan was to get better with each game of the weekend. Starting with this clunker on Saturday morning.

Goalie drops and Austin fires one over the pad and into the net.

One might argue, “Hey that’s a high stick!” The other side might argue, “Ref, the guy’s holding my stick with his face!”

Travis stands tall on this save…or he’s caught on a hook or something.

Travis gets in his best defensive position and stares down the competition.

I am still unsure how this shot missed the net, but it was really close.

Travis slides over to make a save between a pair of strobogrammatic numbers on either side of him.

Here we see Disney sensation, Pear Tree with a ‘skate-by’ backhand. This was performed at the request of the photographer.

  Flames at Shamrocks, Ristuccia, Sunday morning

#gallery-0-10 { margin: auto; } #gallery-0-10 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 25%; } #gallery-0-10 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-0-10 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

The Flames get together before the third game of the series. Garrett holds up the boards for safety reasons.

Austin keeps an eye on the puck whether an opponent is in possession of it or not.

Drew looks things over while Jordan is there for support.

Jordan wonders, “There is so much space out here. Why is this other guy right in front of me?”

Teddy uses an old Scandinavian stick-handling trick that he learned in his years overseas.

Just a picture of James following through on a shot down in Wilmington, MA. That’s what he does.

Jordan yells, “Pass it! I’m open.” Garrett, perturbed, “He knows! We’re all open.”

Put your hockey stick in. Put your hockey stick out. Put your hockey stick in…

Travis stays calm while wondering, “What exactly are James and Colby doing over there?”

Criss Cross, where is the applesauce?

I got this picture while skating a shift with the referees.

Drew works on his stick handling while Jax figures out his jersey laces are swaying in unison.

And then as if nothing else existed, Drew was focused on this one thing.

Teddy looks for an open teammate from behind the net.

The pass found Ian who wasted no time pounding this puck on net.

And there is the puck, in the net. Sweet Flames goal.

Strings still swaying, Jax fights off the distraction to go on the offensive with the puck.

I am not sure what that player is doing to Teddy, but he gets the puck over to Drew…

…Just to be sure, Drew skates the puck into the net.

Since the teams’ in-helmet communications gear is on back order, the players skate to the bench for further direction on each shift.

Jordan uses his new and improved skating stride to get around. Jax, I’m sorry but all I can think of is a sway bar.

Someone told the players there was free soda and burgers behind the other net.

Being that I am so old, this picture made me think of the Kinks. Catch Me Now I’m Falling.

Teddy uses strategy and mind waves in trying to guide this shot through traffic. Toe down, shot down.

Scientific proof of the O zone. Stock face-off photo #236.

James cranks out the good ole shot from the point for old time sake.

On the next day of the weekend my youth hockey team gave to me, a defender to beat and a puck handling pear tree. Seriously Jax, the string has over swayed.

Travis drops to his knees, shaking his goalie stick for all it’s worth to get the black disc off his blade. Or, it’s a stick save.

The legend of The Mighty Fin grows, as she says, “It’s all good Travvie baby. I got your six.”

As always, Fin leaves them shaking their heads. Travis calls out, “Wait. What?!? Haha! Ha! Huh?”

Close up of Austin in action with four of his closest friends.

This may not be as epic as the unveiling of the ‘moonwalk’. Time will tell. But Colby shocked the world when he unveiled this ‘shot dab’ during an actual game. Trending.

Coach Scott says, “I’m not saying you did anything wrong. You just get to spend two minutes in your personal rest chamber”.

Man your post. Okay, Simon says, man your post.

One of my favorite things to watch this season has been anticipation. Jax plays at a whole different level when he commits him self to getting ready to be in motion. Seriously, not everyone gets this yet.

No disrespect because I thought this ref did a great job and I told him so after the game. But this pic has to portray at least an inkling of what a zebra feels like when a pair of lions are on the hunt.

Even with all of the passing, shots, and goals; Fin’s might was felt. Awesome game!

I am pretty sure that this shot hit the iron in the back top of the net and came out. It was called no goal. Then again, I was pretty sure that both Milli and Vanilli were talented vocalists.

Goalie parents and the rest of us have our own perspectives, then there is the perspective from the goalie.

Toward the end of the morning Travis tried to rally a group of players to join him in the old classic, “Head, shoulders, knees and toes”.

2010 Flames Split Three and Win Another Believe it or not, the 2010 Flames season is winding down. The Flames wrapped up their GSL regular season with a 4-2 win over Kearsarge on Sunday afternoon.

NEW BERN, N.C. | Florence pours on the rain amid fears of catastrophic floods

NEW BERN, N.C. | Florence pours on the rain amid fears of catastrophic floods

NEW BERN, N.C.— The Marines, the Coast Guard, civilian crews and volunteers used helicopters, boats and heavy-duty vehicles Saturday to rescue hundreds of people trapped by Florence’s onslaught, even as North Carolina braced for what could be the next stage of the disaster: widespread, catastrophic flooding inland. The death toll from the hurricane-turned-tropical storm climbed to 11.

A day after blowing ashore with 90 mph (145 kph) winds, Florence practically parked itself over land all day long and poured on the rain. With rivers swelling toward record levels, thousands of people were ordered to evacuate for fear the next few days could bring the most destructive round of flooding in North Carolina history.

More than 2 feet (60 centimeters) of rain had fallen in places, and the drenching went on and on, with forecasters saying there could be an additional 1½ feet (45 centimeters) by the end of the weekend. “I cannot overstate it: Floodwaters are rising, and if you aren’t watching for them, you are risking your life,” Gov. Roy Cooper said.

As of 8 p.m., Florence was centered about 65 miles (100 kilometers) east-southeast of Columbia, the South Carolina capital, crawling west at 2 mph (4 kph) — not even as fast as a person walking. Its winds were down to 45 mph (75 kph). But with half of the storm still out over the Atlantic, Florence continued to collect warm ocean water and dump it on land.

In its initial onslaught along the coast, Florence buckled buildings, deluged entire communities and knocked out power to more than 900,000 homes and businesses. But the storm was shaping up as a two-part disaster, with the second, delayed stage triggered by rainwater working its way into rivers and streams. The flash flooding could devastate communities and endanger dams, roads and bridges.

Authorities ordered the immediate evacuation of up to 7,500 people living within a mile (1.6 kilometers) of a stretch of the Cape Fear River and the Little River, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) from the coast. The evacuation zone included part of the city of Fayetteville, population 200,000.

And on Saturday evening, Duke Energy disclosed that heavy rains had caused a slope to collapse at a coal ash landfill at a closed power station outside Wilmington, North Carolina. Duke spokeswoman Paige Sheehan said about 2,000 cubic yards (1,530 cubic meters) of ash were displaced at the Sutton Plant and that contaminated storm water likely flowed into the plant’s cooling pond.

The company hasn’t yet determined i whether any contamination may have flowed into the Cape Fear River. Sutton was retired in 2013 and the company has been excavating ash to remove to safer lined landfills. The gray ash left behind when coal is burned contains toxic heavy metals, including lead and arsenic.

Elsewhere, officials in Harnett County urged residents of about 1,100 homes to clear out because the Lower Little River was rising toward record levels.

One potential road out was blocked as flooding forced the shutdown of a 16-mile (26-kilometer) stretch of Interstate 95, the main highway along the Eastern Seaboard.

In New Bern , along the coast, homes were completely surrounded by water, and rescuers used inflatable boats to reach people.

Kevin Knox and his family were rescued from their flooded brick home with the help of Army Sgt. Johan Mackie, part of a team using a phone app to locate people in distress. Mackie rode in a boat through a flooded neighborhood, navigating through trees and past a fencepost to get to the Knox house.

“Amazing. They did awesome,” said Knox, who was stranded with seven others, including a boy who was carried out in a life vest. “If not, we’d be stuck upstairs for the next … how long? I have no idea.”

New Bern spokeswoman Colleen Roberts said 455 people in all were rescued in the town of 30,000 residents without any serious injuries or deaths. But thousands of buildings were damaged in destruction Roberts called “heart-wrenching.”

Across the Trent River from New Bern, Jerry and Jan Andrews returned home after evacuating to find carp flopping in their backyard near the porch stairs.

Coast Guard helicopters were taking off across the street to rescue stranded people from rooftops and swamped cars. Coast Guard members said choppers had made about 50 rescues in and around New Bern and Jacksonville as of noon.

Marines rescued about 20 civilians from floodwaters near Camp Lejeune, using Humvees and amphibious assault vehicles, the base reported.

In Lumberton, about 80 miles (130 kilometers) inland, Jackie and Quinton Washington watched water filling both their front and back yards near the Lumber River . Hurricane Matthew sent more than 5 feet (1.5 meters) of water into their home in 2016, and the couple feared Florence would run them out again.

“If it goes up to my front step, I have to get out,” Quinton Washington said.

The dead included a mother and baby killed when a tree fell on a house in Wilmington, North Carolina. South Carolina recorded its first death from the storm, with officials saying a 61-year-old woman was killed when her car hit a tree that had fallen across a highway.

Three died in one inland county, Duplin, because of water on roads and flash floods, the sheriff’s office said. A husband and wife died in a house fire linked to the storm, officials said, and an 81-year-old man died after falling and hitting his head while packing to evacuate. In Washington, President Donald Trump was briefed by telephone Saturday on Florence’s impact. The White House released a photograph showing Trump seated at a desk with a phone to his ear and Vice President Mike Pence standing nearby. Later, Trump tweeted his condolences, writing, “Deepest sympathies and warmth go out to the families and friends of the victims. May God be with them!”

Retired Marine Garland King and his wife, Katherine, evacuated their home in New Bern on Friday and returned Saturday, sharing a kiss and joining hands as they drew near their house.

“It was tough. Wobbling. I was looking for water moccasins to hit me at any time,” he said.

They finally made it, and found a soggy, stinking mess.

“The carpets. The floors. Everything is soaking wet,” Katherine King said. “We’re going to have to redo the whole inside.”

The National Hurricane Center said Florence broke a North Carolina rainfall record that had stood for almost 20 years: Preliminary reports showed Swansboro got more than 30 inches (75 centimeters) and counting, obliterating the mark set in 1999, when Hurricane Floyd dropped just over 24 inches (60 centimeters) on the state.

As of noon, Emerald Isle had more than 23 inches (58 centimeters) of rain, and Wilmington and Goldsboro had about a foot (30 centimeters). North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, had around 7 inches (18 centimeters).

Stream gauges across the region showed water levels rising steadily, with forecasts calling for rivers to crest Sunday and Monday at or near record levels. The Little River, the Cape Fear, the Lumber, the Neuse, the Waccamaw and the Pee Dee were all projected to rise over their banks, flooding cities and towns.

Forecasters said the storm will eventually break up over the southern Appalachians and make a sharp rightward swing to the northeast, its rainy remnants moving into the mid-Atlantic states and New England by the middle of the week.
