title: Rebellion

Pairing: dean x reader

abo 2020 sq: alpha challenging alpha

fluff 2020 sq: thunderstorm

word count (optional):

summery: not telling

created for @spnabobingo @spnfluffbingo

normal… what was normal… what did you ever know about normal… you were an alpha, your pack already had an alpha one of you had to go…

you and Dean had been friendly rivals from the get go, but when you presented as an alpha he didnt know what to think…

you both had to grow into the roles, reach your 21st birthdays before the council of wolves would have you both fight for the rite of Alpha, where the looser would become an omega… no two alphas can co exist in one singular pack…

you were one of those types of wolves whose breeding had not been thourally instilled… you had always been told that you would one day have to fight for the rite to lead the pack.

to be the one that makes all the calls for every single decision that the pack needs to make. Dean and you were hanging out the night before this tragic event would take place…

Dean: “when you presented as an alpha i was shocked… my friend was an alpha… the girl that i have a crush on is an alpha…”

dean now realizing what he said was now looking at you with slight amounts of plotting anad seduction written clear cross his face. he didnt want this event to take place either…

YN: “what if you claimed me? would they still make us battle for the alpha rite?”

Dean: “i have no idea but why would you…”

You now were kneeling in front of him, looking straight into his eyes as he smiled…

YN: “cause im in love with you… i cant see myself being with any one else for the rest of my life… its you Dean its always been you…”

Dean: “what makes you think they would be okay with any of that? i mean they always taught us to be fierce and reveered… but if we told them we were in love wouldnt that technically be grounds for execution…”

YN: “i dont care i mean if you pin me and then wait for the 5th strike of thunder, i would technically be omega and then you just claim…. wait a second… what if you claimed me during the fight like we rebel… but this would have to be done between the 2nd and 5th lightning strikes…”

Dean pulled you into his lap and smiled as he planted a soft and gentle kiss to your lips… the idea of rebellion during this most fantastic event would go down in history as the first alphas challenge to go through rebellion…

staying in that grove it was peaceful not to be around everyone else… the pack was getting a little annoying what with everyone getting stuff ready and betting on who woul win the event…

quite frankly you and Dean were quite happy being together in that grove… that is till the sky darkened… when it darkened you both werent disturbed right away but then the council guard bursted through the clearing…

they grbbed you and Dean seperating you both from eachother dragging you guys back to the arena where the event would soon take place… you and Dean fighting the guards began immediately trying to claw your way back to eachother… but they stuck you both in the cages beside one another leaving you both alone…

YN: “dean…”

Dean turned his attention to you and moved closer to your cage…

Dean: “im so sorry about this YN… if we were smart we would have ran away from all of this… self exile type thing… we could have started a pack all our own and no one would have ben able to stop us…”

Dean was now holding your hand as you were his through the cages you both plotted schemed and trying to make sure you were on the same wave length before the guards would come back and take you both into the arena and force this ceremony upon you both…

YN: “as long as we stick to the plan we should be good.. the plan should work…”

Dean: “YN, what if this rebellion thing doesnt work?”

YN: “then you need to take the rite, become the alpha… knock me out and claim the alpha spot… you deserve it more than i do…”

Dean: “i will ensure it doesnt come to that, if we stick to the plan we will reign forever together… i will claim and mate you during this shit show if i have too… just to prove a point…”

You smiled blushing as you both continued to hold hands trying to stay calm that is till the guards actually came through the door… they once again pulled you both away from eachother…

~The hardest thing to do is to be forced to fight the one you know you are meant to be with…~

They dragged you both in electronic chains to the arena… they tossed you both into the opening and made their ways out of the arena… it began to thunder and rain, but you got up starring at Dean who could only stare at you with love reflecting in both of your eyes…

Dean: “we wont do it…”

YN: “we wont participate in your sick games…”

Dean: “this council is blinded by the traditions of old.. if they took one moment if any of you took a good look at my relationship with YN anyone would see that we love eachother and have for years… today when we were in the grove, we almost mated… we wanted to.. but if none of you are gonna listen to reason right now then maybe this will change your minds…”

You stood to your feet as Dean did the plan now fully in motion… the chains that bonded both of your hands fell to the floor. The crowd of people who obviously not listening to reason, had to witness this entire charade to ensure that no one ever questioned you guys judgement again…

Dean: “you wanna be alpha i dont think so…”

YN: “your the love of my life but the rite of alpha is my birthright…”

Dean: “bring it on babe!”

You lunged straight at him knocking him on his ass before you could fully vault over him and land he grabbed hold of your foot and swung you to the ground, you flipped over and for the next little bit it was counting the lightning strikes…

One strike was when you became the pinner again… strike 2 was deans dominance, strike 3 was you then when strike 4 hit, dean had you pinned he switched positions so you were on your knees and he was standing…

Hjs hands turned to claws, his teeth to fangs his voice deepen to the deepest you had heard it in the longest time…

Dean: “at last i am gonna be the only alpha in this god damn fucking pack…”

Dean pulled your head to the side exposing your neck as he was about to intact the final part of the plan… but the council members watched this play out and had a few things of their own to say…

Council member 1: “no…”

Council member 2: “is he gonna do it?”

Council leader: “guards get down there and stop them…before he claims her…”

The guards got down there but it was too late for as soon as they entered, dean sunk his fangs into your neck and claimed you… the entire council was shocked, the leader was angry, the people who had raised both of you were shocked but happy for the 2 of you…

The guards backed away careful not to get too close for they all knew that once your claimed the one who claimed you would go wild trying to protect you… Dean pulls back as the 5th bolt strike…

he lets out a huge earth shattering roar… this made every single omega and beta in the entire arena submitted, your body became putty in Deans arms… you were conscious but you knew who your mate was..

Dean shifted back to normal, scooped you into his arms and walked both of you out of the arena and into the medical area… laying you a bed he goes to get the first aid kit. He comes back to sit behind you to patch you up…

Dean: “well rhe plan worked… or so it seems…”

YN: “i feel strange my body is reacting to your touch more than it did before…"

Dean: “I love you YN! Now shall we go walk through the streets back to search of a place that we may soon call our own…”

You stretch slightly still feeling strange you nod getting up back on your feet. Dean held your hand, both of you walked out of the medical area, feeling the eyes of many upon your forms.

The council blocked the exit from the arena… you both were not sure what to do, but if they followed the laws no one could be able to hurt either of them…

Council leader: “you both violated the event, the sacred rite set out in the laws of our forefathers, we are ashamed but since you both want to defy the laws i guess we have no choice… either you guys send yourselves into exile or by the laws of the forefathers and marry then consummate the marriage, it would be by that act of marriage that you both would not be shunned by the entire pack… the choice is yours but your families have wanted to see you both for a little bit now… go to them and make known of your decisions to us soon…”

Dean and you stood tall and watched the guards and council members move away from the door allowing you both to exit. You both then head to find your families. Knowing that soon your decisions would come into the light…

your mom: “we are all on the same page about what happened at the arena, but we want you both to know that whatever decision you both…”

Dean: “we love eachother very much and i think i speak for both of us when i say that we just want to make a life together for ourselves, we only did what we did during the rite cause we thought the council would see reason…”

his mom: “we know that i know you both will be very happy together… we also have something that we hope will help… we recently purchased some land close by, there is a structure on the land, the deed is in your names. Your father's are already moving in some of your stuff, and they are just finishing the glossing on the bed frame, they also got a mattress and built a bunch more furniture its the perfect place combining what the both of you are. we are all very proud of the wonderful people you both have become and really proud of how you both stood up to the council. they are steamed but once they learn of your decision things will get easier i promise...”

You hold tight to Deans hands and smile slightly as you begin to speak...

YN: “mom and mom in law if i can call you that. can we level with you slightly? we want to get used to being bonded then decide for sure what we want to do... but we know one thing for sure we will not abandon the pack...”

Dean: “YN is the best part of me as i am of her... what she has said is as it shall be.. i assume that the council grilled you guys for information after the entire ordeal... look we know that we put you guys in quite the pickle... but right now we need you guys to not tell the council any of what we have spoken... we will head out now as dads have returned, im sure you both can have them understand why we didnt stay...”

Dean winks at your moms as they nod watching you and Dean get up from your seating and walking out the back door. the most difficult part of growing up is knowing when to leave home and start a new life with someone you love.

this is exactly what you and Dean were doing... this is exactly what was happening. as you and dean followed your moms carefully laid out instructions it led you both straight to the house that your parents had put so much work into...

Dean: “the outside structure is amazing! i can see what they mean by it is a unique combination of both of us... now after you my dear...”

the last concious thought of both your minds was walking through the door of the house, everything after that was a blurr... neither of you would remember till mornings light... but thats a story for another time...

i watched all 20 episodes of spy kids: mission critical in about a week and here are my thoughts (3/5)

1.9

i havent watched this in like 2 days i dont even remember what happened last time

why is everything in the desert the desert sucks

alsjhiajgdf i love tom kenny

listen i know hes like a superandroid or whatever but i really hope he and therese fall in love

wait hold up. i thought they already had midterms???? like the did that before scorpion went to her fashion shoot. AND they were kupkakkes midterms. whats up with this school

no drinking in class???? rude. let them hydrate

that seems imbalanced

aHh

thats only like 10

also that book is dummy thicc

its ok ace my nose whistles too

shut up carmen youre just jealous because shes pretty

there are no seasons its a desert

ok dude stop breathing so hard

he JUST said that

anywhere between an hour and umm... 11 months

you put it on one page why are all the pages back

me but with physics

thats literally the best line in the whole series

juni how do you not know that you were at a safe H O U S E

theyve been gone for like 2 hours are they not allowed to study?????

what even is AWOL???

absent without leave. neat

talon gives off some big draco energy

tick tock???? how dare you

slkdhfa she called sir awesome honey shes such a mom

dont make it obvious

oh look they made it obvious

roll credits

i was in cleveland when i watched this episode - well actually i left that day - and i was s h o o k e t h

also hes right. no spy would be in cleveland. theres 3 buildings

oh me too

right bc shes the only “I.A.”

this isnt HARRY POTTER. or maybe it is. talon is a hardcore draco

oh right bc swearing is for Men™

update tumblr decided to break AGAIN (im boutta cry btw) so we lost about 5 minutes from the end of 1.9 and 7 from the beginning of 1.10

1.10

its a DOORBELL do they not have those in the outback steakhouse

lots of people. doofenshmirtz, other people who i cant think of right now, etc

???? no it wont????

did your troop leader not give you The Talk??? you NEVER go in the customers house

ace no. youre allowed to not buy treats

theres a triforce on her vest, too

shes just gonna go to another house yall. shell be f i n e

oh my God shes holding hands with mauly im gonna c r y

yeah its called saliva

nope only scorpion lives in a castle

stop bringing up spy sense and tell him you saw her glare at you

HES ALLOWED TO LIKE FOOD

how do you know that he doesnt have his phone if YOU dont know where it is and HE cant tell you

i love how she says "floor. ceiling. more thumb"

haha i found the birth of venus

oh and the creation of adam

hes like squidward, which would make sense bc goldies voiced by tom kenny who voices spongebob

"sebastian oliver" "shadow operative" S.O. nice

why do you have a trailblazers badge. youre 4. i didnt get one til i was a cadette

also sebastian???? isnt that the toymakers first name????? you cant have 2 sebastians

also why do you have braces. youre still 4

"SIR MEANIE FACE" IF SOMEONE SAID THAT TO ME ID BE D E V A S T A T E D

SCORPION LET HER CRY SHES F O U R

so really, spy sense DID help

oooooh, sentry duty, thats gotta hurt

WHAT THE H E C K YOURE F O U R

she looks like frickin plushtrap

aCE NO YOURW GONNA D I E

oh trust me they hurt me more than you know

dude theyre so thin youre f i n e

eh, still worked

clicking her teeth together so hard must H U R T

i think she can get out of there. also shes concussed now

why was that so quiet. why did it get louder

thats not a y shape

no, they spy kids

oh shiitake mushrooms thats what THEY said

whenever they say pinnoquinoxx i always think of pinnochio

ahdhhsjak i miss pizza parties 😔

well now we ALL expect it

also, no one????? pick a cooler code name. your regular name was cool and now youve ruined it

2.1

oh theres finally a skip intro option. im not taking it

stop saying that its weird

EWWWWWW CRUSTY THATS SO G R O S S

haha shes shopping w the goon. love that

oh yeah i didnt get to tell yall yet but i absolutely h a t e gablet

a lot of people, juni

listen i know a jt (but he doesnt go by jt) and uhhhhhhh were not gonna go there

why are you happy. what about second semester makes you so happy

boi thats a tardis

the design on his hoverboard looks like the aperture science logo

i paused to read the Floops label and it says "fried corn and sugar loop shaped breakfast substitute, net wt. 13 oz" ITS NOT EVEN A CEREAL ITS A BREAKFAST SUBSTITUTE IM C R Y I N G

listen i know hes technically scorpions dad but i dont think he can legally be in the dorm rooms

aww, thats sweet

i dont think gablet has an attached printer

gablet always sounds like shes mocking people

oh dear God its dolores umbridge

haha nerd

awesome no im gonna die

whenever carmen yells she sounds like link

ok so i didnt find a reason why she sounds like link but i DID find that theyre making a wherea waldo tv series so uhhhh thats fun

why does the cat have a bandaid

GABLET S T O P

OH!!!!!! ON THE WALL!!!!!!! ITS THE TUMBLR POST WITH THE FORK AND KNIFE ETIQUETTE PICTURE!!!!! YOU KNOW THE ONE!!!!!

oh no fart jokes

its even the basic fart sound effect

BAHAHAH MY PHONE VIBRATED AT THE SAME TIME HE FARTED THAT WAS WEIRD

oh no i hate him

stop SLURPING

uh yeah???? you heard them yelling about it

how??? does that work??? you cant just like catch electricity in a cup.... can you???? i havent studied it since 4th grade

oh worm??

goldies such a boomer

worm??

psi shouldnt be at the drawing board right now. he also shouldnt be confused

what happened to the lasers

wait nvm we havent gotten to that episode yet

ace is valid, dark is Scary

im gonna punch gablet in the face

that doesnt sound realistic

do you not have stairs??????

dont you mean inside AND out??

that flashlight did NOTHING

how did it die so fast?????

who else would you be talking to??

isnt that bowser from the mario movie we dont speak of??

i havent gotten a chance to tell yall but i absolutely love clemp. hes such a mood

hes the greatest spy

does it use a mini transmooker???? ig it doesnt bc gablet works but thatd be lit

SEE SHES IMMORTAL

me when i see something interesting

ME WHEN IM NOT ON MY PHONE

i dont think you can legally say that

you killed her

wow nice promo

also just???? bring a charger????? like youre the tech girl why do you not have one at all times

how?????? did you go so fast

machete electric bubbles??? nice

just task manager him

mother of all boards sounds like it could be a cuss...mother of all fuckers

also throwback to 1.7 when she says "his ai firewalled his motherboard" i keep expecting her to say "his ai firewalled this motherfucker"

yes i said keep ive watched that episode too many times to count

worm??

why did you giggle and make a flirty pose. are yall supposed to get together???

did you????? kill him????????? holy shit

2.2

thats what my dad does. he loves hospital corners

idc what it is you have a bazooka

GloFo 7nm: A Lost Hope

So as you may know GloFo 7nm was recently cancelled, in this article im going to analyze all of what this implies in a lot of levels but mostly on the technical one, both in short and long term

before beginning please have in mind:

1) im Spanish and my english writing might be poor, also this is by far the longest article ive ever wrote and it took me 2 and a half Hours to complete, there can be mistakes but don't be harsh pls

2) i currently own a bit of AMD stock, this means I focus on them more, but as you will see this doesn't affect my thinking

3) i link various articles in this one, i recommend you reading them for better comprehension

4) this article contains A LOT of estimates, they are based on public knowledge, if some of that knowledge turns out to be false or inaccurate the estimates based on it do the same, however they are the best that I can do, if I had more hard data I will use it. in particular, my estimates about TSMC 7nm are… weak and early, please don't complain about them, its the best I can do without more hard data

9001) WARNING: this article is LONG, the character count its literally OVER 9000!!!!

with that said lets begin

The first important question is WHY? Why did GloFo cancel their 7nm node? the answer is simple: MONEY, this quote from anandtech sums things up:

So, the key takeaway here is that while the 7LP platform was a bit behind TSMC’s CLN7FF when it comes to HVM – and GlobalFoundries has never been first to market with leading edge bulk manufacturing technologies anyway – there were no issues with the fabrication process itself. Rather there were deeper economic reasons behind the decision.

the full article is here: https://www.anandtech.com/show/13277/globalfoundries-stops-all-7nm-development

The second question is: how does GloFo 7nm compare to TSMC 7nm, because if glofo’s node was worse than TSMC's then the only loss here would be the competition, well this is absolutely not the case, GloFo 7nm was superior than TSMC 7nm, maybe by a wide margin, but this depends literally of thousands of factors, so the best that i can do is to approximate the final answer basing on all that we know first we have to know the specifics of GloFo 7nm, here is an excellent article containing them and more: https://fuse.wikichip.org/news/641/iedm-2017-globalfoundries-7nm-process-cobalt-euv/ if you read the article and understand most of it, you have my respect, but lets list the facts that we care about:

1) 55% power reduction at the same frequency

2) 40% frequency improvement at the same power

3) extremely tuned fin profiles

4) cobalt for some critical layers, improving interconnect speed and drastically reducing electromitigation, this is very important as the wall to reaching high clocks is interconnect speed

this looks extremely nice, but how does this translate into real world max clocks? Well if you assume the GloFo chart was linear then the results are very good, here is a calibration based in real data, done in the anandtech forums by /u/catmerc (thanks!): https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/next-gen-zen-2-3-starship-and-derivatives.2511914/page-3#post-39322122 you watched right: 4,6 GHz at the same power you would get 3,3 GHz on 14nm, WOW, this means that (again if the chart was linear) 5 GHz wouldn't be far fetched at all, this is probably too good and my estimations are that GloFo 7nm was a bit worse than what this chart implies, still I think 5 GHz would have been doable, but only for single core turbo, just in case: im referring to the SoC version, clocks on 7HPC would have been ludicrous

now we have to analyze how good TSMC 7nm is, this is harder to know and there is less data about this but lets do it anyway. first we have to get the advertised numbers, and those are 60% power reduction at the same frequency or 30% frequency improvement at the same power, source: https://www.anandtech.com/show/12677/TSMC-kicks-off-volume-production-of-7nm-chips, this is starting to look worse than GloFo from the first moment, however there is a big issue here: the bases are different, GloFo bases their 7nm numbers on their 14nm, and TSMC does it over their 16nm+ this makes comparison hard, I remember that TSMC 16nm clocked higher than Samsung 14nm which is the same as GloFo 14nm, but consumed a bit more and was less dense, I cant source those claims but if you look at the numbers they make sense, anyway this approach failed as a solid comparison point so lets move on, how about taking the words of their clients? Spoiler alert: worse than GloFo

Speed gains of 16% at 10 nm may dry up at 7 nm due to resistance in metal lines. Power savings will shrink from 30% at 10 nm to 10–25% at 7 nm, and area shrinks may decline from 37% at 10 nm to 20–30% at 7 nm, said Paul Penzes, a senior director of engineering on Qualcomm’s design technology team. source: https://www.eetimes.com/document.asp?doc_id=1333109

Arm claims that the latest 7-nm nodes will only deliver 2% to 3% more speed than the 16-nm node. “There hasn’t been much frequency benefit at all since 16 nm … wire speed hasn’t scaled for some time,” said Peter Greenhalgh, an Arm fellow and vice president of technology. source: https://www.eetasia.com/news/article/18060102-arm-announces-high-performance-laptop-cpu

so basically two clients of TSMC are saying that there are close to none clock gains on 7nm (compared to 10nm, this is important) and I know they mean TSMC and not GloFo because they both say the problem is interconnect speed which if you remember from above is one of the things GloFo 7nm improved a lot thanks to cobalt and other things, also GloFo is a much smaller fab, it was going to get into HVM later and most people were going to use TSMC anyway. So now we know TSMC 7nm isn't as good as GloFo 7nm was, but by how much? Well a little time ago I made a prediction of how Ryzen 3000 would clock on both nodes, I recently updated it to reflect that AMD will use the HPC variant: https://www.reddit.com/r/aceshardware/comments/923t76/ryzen_3000_clock_predictions/ so there is your answer, a not at all laughable 300 MHz loss, but I think you also want to know how did I get to that concussion, well… it is a bit tricky and fail prone also it has a 100mhz or higher margin of error, anyway here it goes: the base is Ryzen 7 1800X which turbos up to 4 GHz on GloFo 14LPP TSMC 16nm+ clocks higher than GloFo 14lpp but lower than 12LP, 4,2GHz is my best estimate, TSMC 10nm should give about 5% of a boost to max clocks (remember max clocks ALWAYS increase less than “performance” for high end CPUs) that gets us to >4,4 GHz, going from 10nm to 7nm should give a negligible boost of around 2% but this is just enough to put that number on 4,5 GHz, this is the number for the mobile variant, but as i discovered during the writing of this article, AMD is going to use the HPC variant which features a 7.5 track library instead of the 6 track one found in the mobile variant it also should use fater interconnects, finding how much will this variant boost clocks is again as there is EVEN LESS data on it, the only numbers that I could find are +13% perf over the mobile variant and up to 4,4 GHz speed for the sram(L* cache), cache usually is a bit slower than the CPU itself so this doesnt mean the limit is 4,4 GHz. with all of this my estimation for 7nm HPC is 4,7 GHz which is still lower than the GloFo 7nm SoC version, have in mind im being a bit cautious with this one 4,8 GHz is possible , just for laughs if we compared max clocks of GloFo 7nm HPC(IBM only) vs TSMC 7nm HPC the difference will be ~0,8GHz, LOL just LOL (the number is serious tough) as you can see this is tricky as is based on estimates over estimates, however there are some limits to how good or how bad it can clock, so while my number might (and possibly will) fail, it cant fail by much The third question is: who this affects and how does it? The answer is AMD, IBM, Intel, TSMC and maybe Samsung, so lets analyze how it affects everyone on that list

AMD: Negatively

after the previous paragraph you can see why: 300-200mhz loss its not good, but this is just the tip of the iceberg, even if GloFo continued with 7nm AMD might have chosen TSMC 7nm for ryzen 3000 because of time constraints, the really bad thing about this is that the clocks of TSMC nodes are expected to be flat until 3nm which will mean a tech change from finfet to gaafet, this means Intel has 3-4 years of wide and increasing clock leadership so the only way AMD can beat Intel’s performance in the desktop market is through big IPC increases, which are unlikely to be big enough,still AMD should be able to beat Intel in value (perf/price) by a very good margin, server and laptop market are a VERY different story and I expect AMD to do very well on those. another HUGE concern for AMD should be prices, with near zero competition TSMC can increase prices both on the short and the long term, similar to the DRAM market, this means either smaller margins for AMD or higher final product prices.

for those all reasons I did cut my personal stock price target for AMD by a BIG 20%, yes you heard right: the day before the announcement I thought AMD was going to reach a 25% (because percentages work that way) higher price than today, im not going to say what my exact price targets are but I believe AMD is going to go up from the current price, just much less than before

IBM: Negatively, VERY negatively

well.. this guys really take the worst part, basically they have no node suitable for their high-end CPUs for the foreseeable future, glofo spun off an ASIC group which is said to help port costumer designs to other nodes, the problem is that there is no high performance 7nm class node apart from intel 10nm (if they fix it)

Intel: Positively

a lot of what I said for AMD applies here in reverse, Intel basically has an assured performance lead in the desktop market over AMD, but still they will have to compete to a denser, cheaper to produce 7nm chip lineup with their 14nm one, their server market share is still posed to get lower maybe by a bog amount

TSMC: Positively, VERY positively

on the short term they get more volume and therefore revenue, and in a now 2-player game (3 if intel opens its fabs) they get the ability to increase or even pact prices

Samsung: Positively

Samsung on the short term will probably see no gains, but on the long term they might win some designs, however the big win for them is the lack of competency driving prices an therefore margins up

YOU, the consumer: Negatively

as per the points stated above you might get more expensive chips, and maybe even worse ones, cutting-edge node development is mindblowingly expensive and that maybe is an understatement, with less competition tsmc and samsung might opt to do less aggressive jumps to save a huge amount of money on RD, this remains to be seen, it may not happen, but the possibility is out there and I wont dismiss it

to end I would like to quote an excellent comment from /u/nagromo which summarizes perfectly some of my thoughts:

I was hopeful that IBM research working with them meant it would be more like "IBM 7nm, manufactured by GloFo", similar to how they've done well with Samsung 14nm. I still think there's a decent chance it really was on track, and they're telling the truth and just think they can be more profitable using their successful 12/14nm technologies instead of investing $10B+ into 7nm. I'm really disappointed to hear this. I thought it was a reasonable hope that the IBM research team would be able to achieve or approach their 40% performance, 55% power numbers. There's rumors about poor performance from TSMC 7nm. My hopes for Ryzen 3 aren't nearly as high as they were yesterday.

this article was originally wrote by me to /r/aceshardware

title: Rebellion

Pairing: dean x reader

abo 2019 sq: alpha challenging alpha

fluff 2020 sq: thunderstorm

word count (optional):

summery: not telling

created for @spnabobingo @spnfluffbingo

normal… what was normal… what did you ever know about normal… you were an alpha, your pack already had an alpha one of you had to go…

you and Dean had been friendly rivals from the get go, but when you presented as an alpha he didnt know what to think…

you were one of those types of wolves whose breeding had not been thourally instilled… you had always been told that you would one day have to fight for the rite to lead the pack.

to be the one that makes all the calls for every single decision that the pack needs to make. Dean and you were hanging out the night before this tragic event would take place…

Dean: “when you presented as an alpha i was shocked… my friend was an alpha… the girl that i have a crush on is an alpha…”

dean now realizing what he said was now looking at you with slight amounts of plotting anad seduction written clear cross his face. he didnt want this event to take place either…

YN: “what if you claimed me? would they still make us battle for the alpha rite?”

Dean: “i have no idea but why would you…”

You now were kneeling in front of him, looking straight into his eyes as he smiled…

YN: “cause im in love with you… i cant see myself being with any one else for the rest of my life… its you Dean its always been you…”

staying in that grove it was peaceful not to be around everyone else… the pack was getting a little annoying what with everyone getting stuff ready and betting on who woul win the event…

YN: “dean…”

Dean turned his attention to you and moved closer to your cage…

YN: “as long as we stick to the plan we should be good.. the plan should work…”

Dean: “YN, what if this rebellion thing doesnt work?”

YN: “then you need to take the rite, become the alpha… knock me out and claim the alpha spot… you deserve it more than i do…”

Dean: “i will ensure it doesnt come to that, if we stick to the plan we will reign forever together… i will claim and mate you during this shit show if i have too… just to prove a point…”

You smiled blushing as you both continued to hold hands trying to stay calm that is till the guards actually came through the door… they once again pulled you both away from eachother…

~The hardest thing to do is to be forced to fight the one you know you are meant to be with…~

Dean: “we wont do it…”

YN: “we wont participate in your sick games…”

Dean: “you wanna be alpha i dont think so…”

YN: “your the love of my life but the rite of alpha is my birthright…”

Dean: “bring it on babe!”

Hjs hands turned to claws, his teeth to fangs his voice deepen to the deepest you had heard it in the longest time…

Dean: “at last i am gonna be the only alpha in this god damn fucking pack…”

Dean pulled your head to the side exposing your neck as he was about to intact the final part of the plan… but the council members watched this play out and had a few things of their own to say…

Council member 1: “no…”

Council member 2: “is he gonna do it?”

Council leader: “guards get down there and stop them…before he claims her…”

The guards backed away careful not to get too close for they all knew that once your claimed the one who claimed you would go wild trying to protect you… Dean pulls back as the 5th bolt strike…

Dean: “well rhe plan worked… or so it seems…”

YN: “i feel strange my body is reacting to your touch more than it did before…"

Dean: “I love you YN! Now shall we go walk through the streets back to search of a place that we may soon call our own…”

You stretch slightly still feeling strange you nod getting up back on your feet. Dean held your hand, both of you walked out of the medical area, feeling the eyes of many upon your forms.

The council blocked the exit from the arena… you both were not sure what to do, but if they followed the laws no one could be able to hurt either of them…

your mom: “we are all on the same page about what happened at the arena, but we want you both to know that whatever decision you both…”

You hold tight to Deans hands and smile slightly as you begin to speak...

Dean: “the outside structure is amazing! i can see what they mean by it is a unique combination of both of us... now after you my dear...”

38: tell us about your pet peeves!

aLRIGHT LADS welcome 2 megans ted talk

(skip this if ur not fond of drama)

so something (refer to the song he said suits myday) happened with jae recently and ive seen fans trying to defend him by @ing him and saying that they love him which is fine - great even! but what i dont approve is how everyone’s basically forgotten about the whole matter because they had concerts so instead of @-ing him and asking him to explain himself, they tell him what a great concert it was which is also great bc their concerts are honestly amazing. basically my pet peeve is when ppl dismiss the problematic action of some people just bc they like them.

another thing is that there were some fans who started guilting others for wanting to drop day6 completely because of what jae did and in my opinion i think it is totally cool to want to drop a group if they did smth bad like??? its ur life???? u can choose who you want to like. what is not cool is pulling out all the good things the person has ever done in their entire life and try to remind others about the positive sides of the person. yes. they’re an encouraging person, etc. but that does not cancel out the bad things they’ve done until they explain/apologise. what is infuriating is just the manner some people took it?? they literally went ahead and tweeted shit like “would your parents drop you if you did smth wrong?” and “you’re seriously gonna drop someone whos been nothing been nice because of one incident?” yes. people will and you dont have any fucking right to stop them? so dont go pulling out receipts.

another thing. its also okay to want to stan the whole group even if someone has done smth problematic. like? to me youre cool if youre able to see and acknowledge the bad shit someone has done and still stand by their side while educating them at the same time its nice to have faith in your idols. however, i wont say much when your idols dont respond and/or respond in a way that shows absolutely no remorse. its cool if you want to support them too, despite that.

tldr; dont fucking excuse someone’s behaviour/action just because youre so far up their fucking ass. dont pull out shit from before either, be it good or bad. and lastly, its okay to want to drop/continue supporting them, its your life.

i just wanted to talk about this tbh,, it was nice to see a few mydays trying to urge jae to explain the whole situation but seeing as he still hasnt and couldve it really irks me :-/

okay update its been a day and i havent really thought about this but im kinda conflicted now bc jae still hasnt talked about the song and im probably just making a big deal out of smth that will never happen again but it really doesnt sit right with me knowing that jae recommended that song to his fans and said it suited mydays?? bc looking at the lyrics... i SURE hope not... idk i have neither forgiven or forgotten but he’s okay now.? i cant stay mad at someone for that long anyway ill never forgive him 4 it though lmao petty ppl only

another thing... jae’s still an amazing person to me with all the encouraging words he says to mydays but this one incident is just soOOOOO hrm and i did go off tangent with the question as usual lol

39: what color do you wear the most?

i wear a lot of colours tbh??? but bc its rly hot out ive just been wearing the same shirt every time i leave the house and its black so

40: think of a piece of jewelry you own: what’s it’s story? does it have any meaning to you?

i dont wear jewelry rip

41: what’s the last book you remember really, really loving?

challenger deep

42: do you have a favorite coffee shop? describe it!

hm,, ive only ever visited this coffee shop like more than once bc the girl i used 2 like showed it to me b4 like 2 years ago and it was nice i liked their mocha frappe and its cozy i guess??? sometimes i go there with friends to study/just eat but i havent gone in awhile.., its two stories and it has an open air sitting area too i prefer sitting inside bc the sun is a big no thanks.. the ceiling is kind of like?? going downward?? like the kind iin attics???? idk man it was nice

44: when was the last time you remember feeling completely serene and at peace with everything?

cant relate

i know i have 2 choose but like

if i go back into the past i could be less annoying?? but the past has actually helped me be the way i am today and i think im learning to be a better person?? im definitely way better than how i was previously 5 years ago and im just grateful i was able to learn from my mistakes???

so i wouldnt go back to the past.

if its in the future i can see how ill end up and if its not good i might end up being able to change myself so i dont get my “bad end”..???? maybe or i can just see what happens in the future and i can look forward to it

itll also give me a chnace to have the most fun while i can if its not too nice

so my decision is to go to the future

thank you so much for asking falen god this got so long lmao

I'm thinking of opening commissions for my writing! Do you have any advice for sites to use or pricing? Or anything in general? Thank you!

hi anon! apologies for the delay on my reply to this. ive not really been home or at my computer the last several days. and yesterday i was sick :( but !! congrats on deciding to move forward with this! its always a difficult decision to come to since its a little hard to see your work as something of value or something someone would pay for (this goes into like…fanfic as a free market method of creation as well as confidence in the self/writing skills). so im glad you decided to do it!

i can only speak about the sites i use or have used, but these are not the only sites out there. i think perhaps the best advice you could be given is to do you research on what the legal terms each website stipulates while also getting a general feel for how easy it is to host.

going under a cut to not clog dashes!

when i first decided to do this, i used buy me a coffee. it was fine, and very easy to set up. the benefit, i imagine, of using it is the fact that they offer some pretty nice statistics for you to see how often your page gets viewed. if youre a stats person, and want to track the number of eyes that come across your page against the number of those eyes that ask for a request to discern value, this might be the place for you! however, for some reason i had a really difficult time getting my paypal connected and set up. someone had bought a request from me and it took about 3 months and several emails to their helpdesk to get the money paid out properly. this was just my experience, and its very possible others on here use it without issue. im sure ive seen several people with a buy me a coffee button on their desktop site. so! if you check it out and feel like moving forward, im sure theres others on here who can advise on the pros and cons.

now, i use kofi and have received the majority of my requests through this website. it links directly to my paypal and has no minimum fee limit for payouts. it allows for anonymous supporters as well, so if someone wants to support without having to ask for a full request it makes it terribly easy for them to do so. ive been using kofi for about 5 months and have had no issues - to be fair, i felt setting up my page there was even easier than buy me a coffee. i am unsure if kofi provides the same statistics, or tracks the number of page views, but for me, personally, thats not my main concern. i think the only place i feel statistically oriented is AO3 lmao anyway, i really like hosting on kofi and recommend them highly.

another place is patreon. i know @dark-muse-iris uses patreon for her followers and from what i gather she, and her patrons, loves it. this is where legal terms come into play, like i mentioned earlier. on kofi, there are clauses that stipulate you cannot distribute porn, sex work, etc on the website. if you request a work of smut from me through kofi, i am technically breaking the legal terms. this is why my kofi is linked on my tumblr, but my tumblr is not linked (directly) on my kofi. am i breaking laws? yes, but i dont have enough of a following to garner the value of having patreon. i have a lot of followers, but im very aware engagement on my blog comes in waves and i also just am not around enough or energetic enough to maintain the energy needed to sustain a patreon. i dont know how people do it, and this is probably due to my lack of education on managing a patreon in general, but i admire those that do. now, i mention patreon, because patreon doesnt have legal terms that specifically stipulate distribution of erotica - again, this was the lat time i checked and my understanding. this could really be totally different, so if im incorrect please correct me.

as for price points, those numbers are entirely up to you. and by that i mean, it is beneficial to consider how long it takes you to write x number of words, the ease vs difficulty of creating those words based on member, and the general word count of what you produce. i broke mine up into various levels - drabble, one shot, and mini series. for one shots there is a range of 2-5k, and 5k+); mini series are up to 3 parts and no more. this is because i am a very flowery, long winded writer. i have been writing long enough to know this about myself and find staying under 1K a challenge.

for me, i also felt it would be important to work with my requestor. if they want someone that is far longer or doesnt fit into what ive described, im happy to work with them and come to a price together that they can afford.

HOWEVER. probably the best advice i can give, apart from ensuring you read legal terms, is encouraging you to stick to your boundaries. i have a clear list of rules, and on those rules a very explicit list of what i will not write. these rules are not to be broken, and if they are, its okay for you to delete the request. offer a refund and politely decline. you are not beholden to a request that makes you uncomfortable, anxious, or triggered just because someone gave you money for it. before you open any of these pages, consider what your limits are - who you will write for, how much you will write, and what you absolutely will or cannot write - and clearly state them. never push yourself past a boundary on behalf of someone else.

i hope this all helps!

My tubal ligation journey

So i started out by researching this procedure like everyone else now a days, on the internet. i started with youtube because well, it was easy. i just watched women go on and on about their stories of why or how and the after surgery effect and the 5 years later videos. Then i turned to actual research on websites about the procedure and the different kinds of ways to get it done. and let me tell you a few things i found. I found that 99% of the women i was watching on youtube already had kids. i was reading so many stories of women being turned down because of their lack of kids, their age, and because they were single! So me being 25, (single) i have a boyfriend but legally im single, and having ZERO kids and no desire for kids i felt pretty hopeless and helpless. I also had an extreme need to get this all done within two months. why you ask, let me lay this out real quick. one major reason....INSURANCE. I do have my own insurance through my workplace but like most people i know who didn’t get the privilege of going to college and having a nice shiny degree right about now and a great job that has good insurance, i would have to pay alot of $$$$$ out of pocket going through my work. so i decided to use my mothers which im still on for two more months. i know i know i see you in the back rolling ya eyes. well this is MY story get over it. so anyway it was cheaper for me to go that route and pay that way. since it was a preventative surgery it was 100 covered through her insurance. Now came the hard part. trying to scramble and find a doctor with an opening and hope that he will be willing to do the surgery on me despite having no kids, being young,and legal single. So i called around and i found a doctor. My consultation date was june 6th. at that time it was the end of may and i had about 2 weeks to prepare. i was watching videos and reading and writing notes on every little thing i found out. i stayed up until 2 am researching for 5 hours straight, i wrote down real data and different ways to do the surgery, weather to be burned tied cut use the eshore method or something else.and all the reason why i did not want kids. all my familys health issues my boyfriends health issues and everything untill i felt prepared to go in for battle and defend my decision come hell or high water. and eventually the day came. I brought my boyfriend for support and back up. (because i read somewhere in some states you cannot have this done unless your spouse signs off on it) how crazy is that??? so i wanted them to see he fully supported me. although we are not married we have been together for years. So the nurse calls me back and we go over the family history and that i have no kids (which is kinda the point in getting this done) i wanted to stay that way. and she looked at me grimmly and i felt pretty down like i had about a 40% chance of getting approved by the way the nurse was talking. i waited another long 10 minutes and the doctor came in.......he, yes HE i opted for a male since he had the soonest opening at that time, sat down with us and we did a short and sweet family history lesson again and he started to ask me what i knew about the procedure. heavily armed with all my knowledge gearing up for a long and hard debate i simply said i knew the different methods and which i preferred and threw in a few facts to start things off. he whipped out a diagram of a womens lower half and started telling me how the procedure would be done. he asked if i had kids already and i said no, that was strike one. he asked if i was married i said no but im technically engaged i felt like there was strike two, then he asked my age and i said 25 and he said okay if your sure then lets do this what day works for you? i sat there stunned and i looked at my partner and back at the doc and i said thats it? he said well yes. i said how can that be so easy? he said well your 25 and in (my state) they like you to atleast be 24 ok so that was one pass. and you dont have kids we usually like you to have one kid, so that was one fail,....then he said well your engaged so ill count that as married and we like to do it on women already married so thats 2 out of 3 and you seem really determined. i said wow i cant believe it was this easy. i was researching for hours and i had 6 pages of handwritten material ready to show you. he laughed about it. it really was not as hard as going into battle as i thought it was going to be. So we set the date one month from that day. Mainly because of my stupid work rules you have to request off a month ahead of time and i wanted to assure the doc i was willing to think on it more even though i was set on it. so im a week and 2 days away from my surgery day and exactly one week away from my pre op appt to go over paperwork. Although it was not a huge struggle to get approved on a small time frame like i thought it would me, that really is the case for some women in different states. they had to go to 2,3, even 4 doctors before finding one to approve them. Even when they are +30 years old or already have a kid. I am thankful that wasn’t my struggle. but this, this is my story. i just wanted to get this out there to show other younger or older women out there looking for this like me, to not give up on fighting and find a doctor who will help. and make this a more public issue. It is ridiculous that in 2017 a women needs her husbands approval to ger her tubes tied? she doesnt need that for an abortion. he can get a vasectomy without his wifes approval. why do some doctors get to tell you your to young you might change your mind. okay well if I change MY mind thats my fault and ill deal with it. there is ivf and adoption if i do. why make you have one or more kids already before doing a procedure to prevent kids? sure you can have some kids then make sure you dont have to worry about more but for the women who just plain never want any kids they shouldnt be singled out and made to have one first. kids are just not for some people for many reasons. and we need to change the way this all works. why is easier for a man to get fixed? why is okay of a women with 2 kids to get fixed but frowned upon for a women with none? why do doctors think age will change our mind? whats the magic number when we know what we know and we are not gonna change our mind? 80? too late. most place your an adult at 18 or even more so 21. so why cant we make that adult decision at 21? i personally knew since i was a pre teen i did not ever want a kid. i love sleep, crying aggravates me, and throw up causes me to have a mental breakdown. (emitaphobia). so why did i have to wait till 25 for anyone to take me seriously? this was my story please share yours with me.

Rebellion

title: Rebellion

Pairing: dean x reader

abo 2020 sq: alpha challenging alpha

fluff 2020 sq: thunderstorm

word count (optional):

summery: not telling

created for @spnabobingo @spnfluffbingo

abo 2019 masterlist fluff 2020 masterlist

normal… what was normal… what did you ever know about normal… you were an alpha, your pack already had an alpha one of you had to go…

you and Dean had been friendly rivals from the get go, but when you presented as an alpha he didnt know what to think…

you were one of those types of wolves whose breeding had not been thourally instilled… you had always been told that you would one day have to fight for the rite to lead the pack.

to be the one that makes all the calls for every single decision that the pack needs to make. Dean and you were hanging out the night before this tragic event would take place…

Dean: “when you presented as an alpha i was shocked… my friend was an alpha… the girl that i have a crush on is an alpha…”

dean now realizing what he said was now looking at you with slight amounts of plotting anad seduction written clear cross his face. he didnt want this event to take place either…

YN: “what if you claimed me? would they still make us battle for the alpha rite?”

Dean: “i have no idea but why would you…”

You now were kneeling in front of him, looking straight into his eyes as he smiled…

YN: “cause im in love with you… i cant see myself being with any one else for the rest of my life… its you Dean its always been you…”

staying in that grove it was peaceful not to be around everyone else… the pack was getting a little annoying what with everyone getting stuff ready and betting on who woul win the event…

YN: “dean…”

Dean turned his attention to you and moved closer to your cage…

YN: “as long as we stick to the plan we should be good.. the plan should work…”

Dean: “YN, what if this rebellion thing doesnt work?”

YN: “then you need to take the rite, become the alpha… knock me out and claim the alpha spot… you deserve it more than i do…”

Dean: “i will ensure it doesnt come to that, if we stick to the plan we will reign forever together… i will claim and mate you during this shit show if i have too… just to prove a point…”

You smiled blushing as you both continued to hold hands trying to stay calm that is till the guards actually came through the door… they once again pulled you both away from eachother…

~The hardest thing to do is to be forced to fight the one you know you are meant to be with…~

Dean: “we wont do it…”

YN: “we wont participate in your sick games…”

Dean: “you wanna be alpha i dont think so…”

YN: “your the love of my life but the rite of alpha is my birthright…”

Dean: “bring it on babe!”

Hjs hands turned to claws, his teeth to fangs his voice deepen to the deepest you had heard it in the longest time…

Dean: “at last i am gonna be the only alpha in this god damn fucking pack…”

Dean pulled your head to the side exposing your neck as he was about to intact the final part of the plan… but the council members watched this play out and had a few things of their own to say…

Council member 1: “no…”

Council member 2: “is he gonna do it?”

Council leader: “guards get down there and stop them…before he claims her…”

The guards backed away careful not to get too close for they all knew that once your claimed the one who claimed you would go wild trying to protect you… Dean pulls back as the 5th bolt strike…

Dean: “well rhe plan worked… or so it seems…”

YN: “i feel strange my body is reacting to your touch more than it did before…"

Dean: “I love you YN! Now shall we go walk through the streets back to search of a place that we may soon call our own…”

You stretch slightly still feeling strange you nod getting up back on your feet. Dean held your hand, both of you walked out of the medical area, feeling the eyes of many upon your forms.

The council blocked the exit from the arena… you both were not sure what to do, but if they followed the laws no one could be able to hurt either of them…

your mom: “we are all on the same page about what happened at the arena, but we want you both to know that whatever decision you both…”

You hold tight to Deans hands and smile slightly as you begin to speak...

Dean: “the outside structure is amazing! i can see what they mean by it is a unique combination of both of us... now after you my dear...”

BPRD: 1946 - Chapter Five & “Bishop Olek’s Devil”

Story: Mike Mignola & Joshua Dysart | Art: Paul Azaceta | Colours: Nick Filardi | Letters: Clem Robins

Originally published by Dark Horse in BPRD: 1946 #5 | May 2008

“Bishop Olek’s Devil” - Originally published by Dark Horse in Hellboy: Free Comic Book Day 2008 | April 2008

Collected in BPRD - Volume 9: 1946 | BPRD: 1946 - 1948

Plot Summary:

The combined Russian and American forces storm Herman von Klempt’s bunker to face his kriegaffen and attempt to stop him from unleashing Hitler’s vampire army back-up plan on America.

In “Bishop Olek’s Devil”, we get the first case and team-up between Bruttenholm and Dr. Eaton, trying to find the whereabouts of legendary grimoire. Wacky hijinks and Lovecraftian nightmares ensue.

Reading Notes:

(Note: Pagination is in reference to the chapter itself and is not indicative of anything found in the issue or collections.)

pg. 1 - The soldiers don’t seem to be doing so great against the kriegaffen. It’s interesting how this story has done an almost complete genre turn into weird war tales with mad science and trying to shoot everything in the face. It’s a testament to the entire creative team that they can make this change.

pg. 2 - That’s a scary amount of vampire tubes.

pg. 3 - Bruttenholm chasing Von Klempt and finding a monkey surprise is funny. And he’s saying, “Master! Master! The intruder!”

pg. 4 - It appears even back then Von Klempt was insane. And the monkey: “Your wish is my command.”

pg. 5 - Varvara certainly acts like a petulant child. Or maybe we’re meant to believe that petulant children act like demons. Also it’s hilarious that she loves the chaos the kriegaffe is causing.

pg. 6 - I love the incredulous look Azaceta gives PFC Clark. The kriegaffe just crushed a Russian soldier and his flamethrower, burst into flames, and is still attacking them.

pg. 8 - It’s always interesting to see Von Klempt, a head in a jar, tout himself as superior to...well anyone.

pg. 10 - Great plan by Clark leading the kriegaffe through the complex to destroy it.

pg. 11 - Nice parallel between the two scenes to spotlight the power outage and the death of the kriegaffe.

pg. 13 - I’m surprised the Sergeant didn’t crack sooner. Also it goes to show you how the average person deals with all of the madness in the Hellboy universe.

Also the monkey is saying: “I will not allow you to ruin my master’s plan!”

pg. 14 - These are definitely a different breed of vampire from the likes of Giurescu and Konig. More bestial, feral. I love the tone of red Nick Filardi gives them to reaffirm their nature.

pg. 16 - Love this page to spotlight the whole predicament that Bruttenholm, and the world, is in. And just how bloody loony Von Klempt is, again.

pg. 18 - It’s interesting to see the selflessness displayed by the Sergeant again. It’s consistent with his characterization earlier and is nice to see him taking responsibility for what happened.

Also, you’ve got to think that even if the rocket explodes here, there’d be some sort of residual infestation wherever it comes down in Europe. That was exactly what Von Klempt was counting on in America.

pg. 19-21 - Wonderful action, and, despite the explosion, an ambiguous end to everyone remaining on that rocket.

pg. 22 - Varvara’s dolly singed is a nice touch. I think everyone in the bunker was reduced to a crispy critter. Her masquerading as Bruttenholm’s daughter is hilarious.

pg. 23 - Kind of a heavy revelation that Bruttenholm knew about Rasputin as such as early as 1946. It’s a shame that he died in ‘94 before being able to actually share any of this information with Hellboy. You’ve also kind of got to wonder why he didn’t.

pg. 24 - I’m not sure I’d want to be a demon’s favourite human.

pg. 26 - Love the narration and the establishment of a book for them to find. There’s the Ars Goetia as part of the Solomonic magick canon, but this “Dialogus Goetia” is a seeming invention of Mignola or Dysart that serves a similar purpose.

pg. 28 - The current owner of the book definitely seems mad.

pg. 29 - And he seems intent on passing on the cursed aspect of the book’s possession.

pg. 30 - I love these shadowy panels. Azaceta and Filardi do an incredible job to convey the atmosphere of creepiness to the story.

pg. 31 - This starfish thing it terrifying.

pg. 33 - The curious aid of Petrov’s butler and being transported to the seemingly lost crypt of the Bishop is interesting.

Final Thoughts:

Once again in a Hellboy universe tale, and technically several times just within this series, we get a twist in the tale as the story jumps to another genre and yet it doesn’t feel awkward, forced, or unnatural at all. It’s amazing the elasticity of Mike Mignola’s world that it can shift in so many different ways and still come out in an entertaining and compelling way.

Also, I love the straight horror short story to cap off this volume. This kind of Victorian style narration is uncommon amongst Hellboy tales, but it too is a welcome change of pace. It really evokes that style of story well.
