SHORT FILMS 11 OSCAR EDITION 1938 (1317)

The 11th Academy Awards were held on February 1939, at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, California, and hosted by Frank Capra.

That Mothers Might Live is a 1938 American short drama film directed by Fred Zinnemann. In 1939, at the 11th Academy Awards, it won an Oscar for Best Short Subject (One-Reel).

The short is a brief account of Hungarian physician Ignaz Semmelweis and his discovery of the need for cleanliness in 19th-century maternity wards, thereby significantly decreasing maternal mortality, and of his struggle to gain acceptance of his idea. Although Semmelweis ultimately failed in his lifetime, later scientific luminaries advanced his work in spirit like microbiologistLouis Pasteur, who provided a scientific theoretical explanation of Semmelweis' observations by helping develop the germ theory of disease, and Dr. Joseph Lister, who revolutionized medicine by putting Pasteur's research to practical use. 11th Academy Awards - Wikipedia

alexander's eyes scanned the menu of the venue, unsure of what to order for himself before completely giving up, facing the bartender with a polite grin. "i'll just have whatever she's having" he asked, pointing at his companion, safiye, before returning his gaze to the bartender. "if you have any snacks— we'll have that too, please." the author then eyed his friend, a plea present on his features as he waiting for her to order for them. "just please don't order straight up gasoline. years of drinking cheap alcohol has messed up with me and i ain't a kid anymore, i can't handle a bomb like that anymore, you'll have to get me to the e.r" he chuckled before putting his phone back to on his pocket, ready to give his undivided attention to the other. "i should come visit you more often, i like your side of the borough. do you do presentations, in the studio you work at?" alex inquired.

Starter for: @betweenmuses

Pairing: Patrick x Alexander “How come I am hardly surprised you reached out?” There was a faint glee of pride in Patrick’s voice as he stepped into the hotel room – the occasional place where he would meet with Alexander whenever they got together. His blue eyes scanned the evident luxury surrounding him. Nothing below penthouse level or less than absolutely perfection. Alexander King was a man that truly enjoyed to flaunt his wealth the same way he waved his influence with words and Patrick was not opposed to such antics. He had many, many clients… but few had the necessary presence to actually appear as they claimed: powerful, influential and borderline egotistical. Alexander was one of the rare cases where his bite was as worse as his bite. He could easily back up all those words that came out of his mouth. A turn-on, really. The escort walked around the penthouse, barely deigning Alexander with more than a quick glance – sure, he was HIRED to be there but he was never one to give into things easily – tapping his fingers in a rhythmic fashion over a rather expensive looking mahogany desk. “You don’t have to say it.” It would probably bruise his ego to admit something as trivial as missing someone. “I know my presence was missed. Not everyone can keep up with your ravenous appetites.” His lips curled into a faint ghost of a smile, something that exuded a predatory aura more than a subservient prey. And it was always fun to boost someone’s ego. Make them feel needed. Wanted. CRAVED.

“So tell me…” Patrick finally turned all of his attention to Alexander, almost like he actually noticed he was there after these minutes. Maybe other people would cower in fear and obey Alexander’s whims without a second thought – but Patrick always liked playing with fire. Even if he got burnt in the process. The distance between him and the client vanished with mere steps, shamelessly invading the other man’s personal space without a damn care in the world as he gently sniffed the rather expensive cologne oozing from him. “What’s on tonight’s menu, darling? A massage? Talking...?” Like a coiled snake ready to invest, Patrick wetted his lips and ever so gently – almost feather like – ran his fingertips over the buttons of Alexander’s shirt. “Or we skipping everything and you want the main dish already?”

"i wasn't trying to wake you," mumbled alexander when he realized he could hear footsteps behind him. he had woken up early (like he always did) and decided to leave her be. he knew that he had exhausted her the previous night. he had a few things he needed to catch up on anyway. he had a cup of steaming hot coffee next to him and he went to grab it in order to hold it out towards her," are you planning on running away again?" he knew that she would likely try to avoid him once she left which was why he just wanted to make sure that he knew her pattern by then. he finally looked away from the screen," or are you at least going to stay for breakfast?"

alexander inhaled deeply as he turned the page of his book , too absorbed in the narrative to let his eyes part the pages displayed in front of him . he had made the rounds , eaten half of his weight in pastries and baked goods and had even used some of the tricks his mother had taught him as a little boy in the dance floor and now he needed some down time with the sounds of the rest of the event as a white sound while finishing the book he had started two days before to recharge before going back .

the author had been so in trance that he didn't quite notice someone had join him on a picnic blanket next to his until their shadow reflected on the pages , stopping him from continuing for a second . " hey , want some vegan cheez-its ? pretty sure i have some fruit and sandwiches somewhere in here too— " he stopped himself , using his finger inside the book so he wouldn't lose the page he was on while looking into his basket to see whatever snacks he had stored that had not been consumed yet . " there's some trailmix too— homemade " alex offered , pushing his picnic basket towards his neighbor and opening his book again , looking over to see lily from all people sitting next to him . " hi " a bashful grin " small world . how uh— how are you ? " awkwardness settled on the pit of his stomach , not quite sure how to act around the last person he had shared a night with . " it's nice to see you . "

@wantcn asked for 1 MMF from Poly gif meme for Anna & Choice

The thrusts were slow and measured, Colton driving his hips forward to force every inch of his cock into his daughter's ass. All the while, like the well-behaved omega that she was, she was stroking William's cock. The scent of her heat, sweet and heavy, filled the room around them, and neither alpha was able to restrain themselves in any way. It wasn't the first thing that Colton had fucked Anna. No, some rather archaic law allowed it, even if most didn't pay any attention any more. Anna was a strong omega, independent, unafraid of alphas, which was why she hadn't been claimed yet. Something that was getting harder for Colton to ignore each time he took her. With Will, who didn't have an omega of his own, it seemed perfect to offer up the willing body to help his friend through his rut. Colton couldn't have anticipated the change in hormones or stirred desires. He could tell by the way that William watched Anna, there was a need to claim. One that he himself could no longer deny.

"That's it, baby. Get him nice and hard. He's gonna knot your pretty omega cunt while Daddy knots your ass. You're the perfect omega for the both of us. You know that?" He leaned in, his nose running along the delicate column of her neck before his tongue traced the same trail. Teeth ached to sink into her, mark her as his and his alone. Well, his and William's.

William groaned, unable to close his eyes or tear his attention away from the slender hand wrapped around his massive cock. The pretty omega was perfect, Colton hadn't been lying. Maybe he would have thought that about any omega after going a few years without having one. But there was something special about Anna. Unspoken but felt in his very core just as Colton had. The shift in tone and scent in the room was obvious. Need coursed through his veins and it was all he could do not to shift and slam right into her. The need to knot, to breed, to claim was constant and overwhelming.

"Absolutely perfect. We are going to claim you. An omega all for us. Able to take both alphas, like a good girl. Tell me how badly you need your womb filled with my cum, omega. I want to hear you say it."

song inspiration: snow angel - renee rapp.

alexander had been to manhattan earlier that evening, never one to miss the rockerfeller tree lightning ceremony. to him, there was something truly magical about the whole ordeal that had the power to turn anyone in a ten miles radius into a holiday lover and he, was no exception. he had decided then to take a taxi to cross the bridge and drop him off somewhere else, so he could walk home and dissect his own thoughts. he hadn't accounted, whatsoever, that by night in early december in new york it would get cold enough to fool anyone into thinking it was snowing, to keep the ice scraps from the ice rink frozen, creating the perfect visual illusion of real snow.

after considering for a brief second, the author laid on the cold snow shavings and let his limbs move up and down to create a little shape on the shavings, earning looks from the people near. it was with his back soaked and cold that some reality hit him, a weight he hadn't felt in years heaved his heart. there was no rhyme nor reason for his sudden mood change but there he laid on the ground, the weight of the world on him as the snow around him simulated a snow angel.

a bright grin instantly appeared on alexander's features as yujin 's dishes appeared into view , mouth immediately salivating at the presentation and aroma alone . the sight of yujin herself imparting wisdom on her baking herself , merely a cherry on top of an already wonderful treat. . " don't threaten me with a good time because both you and i know i will leave all these poor folks out of baked goods if given the opportunity . i'm not here to make friends and i'm willing to lose some for your baking " alex alerted in response before taking a tart into his hand , offering yujin an appreciative nod . " not even gonna lie , this was the thing i was excited the most about today . was it hard , deciding what to bring ? " the author questioned as he gleefully bit into his pastry .

❝ i kept going back and forth between lemon bars, blueberry tarts, and mini strawberry shortcakes. so, ❞   a soft shade of pink dusted her cheekbones as she gestured at the spread of desserts.  ❝  i made all of them. ❞   indecision had marred the afternoon before, all the ingredients gathered in the bakery's kitchen as she'd waffled between options, unsure what the majority would prefer, before finally glancing at the clock and realizing there was time to bake all three. now each dessert was carefully arranged across the three serving plates, fresh blueberries and strawberries added as garnish to the tarts and cakes respectively while a dusting of powdered sugar coated the tops of the lemon bars like snowfall.  ❝  please, help yourself. ❞

with one cup of hot cocoa in each hand, alexander approached the dinner table where now laid a few papers with easiness as a very attentive pollux followed his every step with unwavering attention; his own attention glued to the woman sitting on one of her chair. it wasn't a rare sight; they had been friends before becoming business partners and before getting involved romantically and although the later hadn't worked as they had hoped, the other two adjectives remained a truthful depiction of their current relationship. it wasn't perfect what they had; sometimes being in the same room became too unbearable it made alexander not write for a week straight in some sort of self-sabotage punishment but they had managed to make it work and if he were honest, there wasn't anyone he'd rather have such a complicated relationship with.

now there they were. two colleagues, friends, planning a future for something they had created and nurtured together when they had hoped for a life together in his apartment, just as they had been many moons ago when they were just starting their journey as business partners except, there was much more at stake now. "i met a really cool novelist the other week. she sent me her latest work and it's pretty cool, i think she could be a nice addition. do you want me to send it to you? i think you'd like her. she reminded me of you" he proposed as he dived into yet another paper sheet, blue eyes casually stealing glances at the other. "how was thanksgiving? you had fun?"
