🚚 The Chapter between 3 and 5: Movin' out Episode 5: Rainy Day 🎧▶️📻 Previous (Hello World) - Next (Livin' in the City)

After Vlad had brought Sai back to the PC Café and came home, Francine was still there. She and Leander sat at the porch and played chess. . . . Leander: "I told you I'm only doing this 'Hwanung stuff' so Jack can stay, if he has to move out, I quit." Francine: "It's only for a while. And Jack won't get banned, he just moves out until Kareem junior succeeds. Then he'll leave and Jack can move in again." Leander: "And for how long will that be? Where will he live? You know how he is, he's not ready to be on his own." Francine: "One grows with their tasks. Don't underestimate him. Kareems and the Regulator are right, he will influence - and endanger - the outcome by befriending the opponent. That's also one of the reasons I want you to have an eye on Mr Lunvik, he's around your age . . . Leander: "My age? He looks like - what - 50? And I'm not even thirty!" Francine: ". . . and both of you have no friends here. Hang out with him and see if you can gather intelligence that gives us some insight of what they might scheme. For the Community - and Jack, hm? You're a private investigator, make good use of it. And Mr Lunvik is quite nice, you'll see." Leander hadn't forgotten 'quite-nice Mr Lunvik' was after Jack and part of the Hwanung-stuff-blackmail: "Quite nice? He's a Regulator and here to. . ." Francine's phone rang: "Hey Noxee. . . Where? . . . I'll take care of it, bye dear." Francine went to leave: "Think about it, it will be for the best." Leander: "'Befriending' the Regulator or letting Jack move out?" Francine: "Both, dear. Both."

Vlad, overhearing from the balcony, agreed with Francine about Jack. If Jack moved out, he could fully concentrate on pestering this not-so-imaginary Jeb guy and the beggar, and he could finally live in peace here. He bets Jack already tries to befriend this derelict, even though he was still half unconscious when he and Sai left. So Jack leaving would hit two toads with one stone - quick and easy. He'd get rid of Jack and the beggar. Worse enough they'd stumbled over him again. Jack would want to keep him around, since he seems to collect friends like his thousand+1 jobs, and Vlad has no intentions meeting him again. Thinking of that scum alone makes him feel sick. Being around him makes him feel weak, and he hates beeing weak. Even though he denied it when Jack asked, he was about to collapse again. Maybe Jack should be careful and it wasn't a mere beggar but a kind of sorcerer? And Kareems sent him to weaken him so their son would succeed? But he'd already agreed to fail. Yes, but now they're aware of his and Jack's 'friendship' and it made them wary. There, this also was Jack's fault! Gods, he's already starting making weird conclusions, just like Jack! About time he eventually leaves so they can get this 'Hwanung stuff' over with. This couldn't be so hard. Just failing to become human. And after what he'd experienced here, he has no intentions to become anything like them. The BlackPink-guin didn't approve and looked accusingly at Vlad.

Meanwhile Saiwa went up to his storage room and hung up the drawing of Francine's not-so-imaginary-grandson next to the oversized rabbit. It really was well drawn and it would be a shame to let it go to waste. That, and not because he thought that guy was kind of handsome and sweet and... No. No, he wasn't. Something was still off here. Francine might have sent Jeb to Noxee's and the other places Jack had seen him, but why did he creepily stare at him in the park? Maybe Francine knows him not as well as she might think - where was he all the time? Even Leander didn't know him! - and he did stalk him - and not Noxee. And this would mean he wasn't off the hook. Maybe Jeb witnessed him transform from fox to human and tries to approach him to blackmail him? Or else he'd let Kareems know he'd found their son's groom on the run. Dammit.

Saiwa shivered. Not only from fear, he was still soaking wet. And when he turned to the left-behind suitcase to pick a few dry clothes, he noticed the guitar. Huh. Since when was this guitar stashed here? Has the owner of the suitcase returned? But Sai hadn't noticed anyone entering this room. He should ask Minwoo and Namjin if they'd seen someone. And he should lock the door. If the owner of the guitar and the suitcase returned, he could as well ask so they could let him in to grab his stuff. And Sai should probably get some clothes of his own...

Jack and the not-so-dead boy still sat in the rain and waited for sweet Noxee. He couldn't wait to see her again. He'd never get enough of her grace and beauty and... A car stopped right in front of them. Ah, there she was, Jack looked up and smiled - but froze midway. Regulator Lunvik: "Get in." Oh no, not again (and again)! Jack: "Not today, Regulator. My friend is in need of help and I won't leave him for being accused - again - of crimes I didn't commit." Then he noticed Francine in the back of the car: "Get in, Jack. Noxee called me, the bar is still open and she can't leave - and the only one with a car in our community is Mr Lunvik."

Jack sighed, but eventually he helped the boy into the car and fastened his seatbelt: "You owe me, my friend." . . . Francine: "We'll take care of him. Shall Mr Lunvik drive you home?" Regulator Lunvik: "No!" Jack: "NO!"

Even though it was late and he had to get up early, Jack was too agitated to go to bed, and so he took another detour through the 'crash site' to find the meteorite for his beloved Noxee - and to worry about his new friend. Just as Francine and the Regulator. They'd brought the boy to the warehouse, put him into dry clothes and in the Regulator's bed. Standing there and looking at him, they both noticed - nothing. Which was weird. Despite the glamour potions, which hid their true form from the humans, a few powerful of them, like Francine and the Regulator, were able to tell if one is a human or one of them. But this one gave them nothing. Francine: "We need to find out more about him, but he can't stay at of our places before we know more." Regulator Lunvik nodded: "He's a safety hazard and could give us away." Francine smiled, the Regulator said 'us', he felt as part of the Community already. And when Leander spent more time with him and they became close, he'd soon be easier to approach - and to handle. Regulator Lunvik: "I should withdraw him." Francine froze: "Eh, I don't think this is necessary." One step at a time ö.ö' Francine: "If only we had a neutral place somewhere. Where someone could watch over him. . . But you've experienced first hand how dense as the housing market is in Dowon." Regulator Lunvik: "Someone dispensable, where it doesn't matter if he gets hurt - or killed - if this one turns out as threat." Seems Regulator Lunvik already has a certain someone in mind. . .

'It feels like you’ll come from somewhere Will you fall like a rain shower? That’s just my hopes, it’s too late

When rain falls on my lips it feels like I can touch you Feels like I can catch you, the rain resembles you The sunlight has gotten wet I hate the rain so much, I try to forget you But you keep falling, stop it It’s like this every day after you left All day, rainy day It’s because it’s raining

Coming from a long way It was so hard for us to meet But breaking up was so easy Each of us had different ways of hurting It was just the difference of weight We’re strangers now It’s over now

Every day every night, it’s useless The weather said it’d be different today But it was wrong Look at my head, drenched with your thoughts Are you with someone else, somewhere?'

Oz Sentinel AU

It came up recently during a writing session, and I was thinking about how Sentinel AUs aren't as popular these days but it would be cool to make one for Oz. (Some posts on Sentinel AUs if you're not aware of what it is: x, x, x

Now, obviously since I have that Oz (Miguel/Chico) brainrot, and while the common fanon of Sentinels is that they're 'good' people, I think it would be intriguing to explore a world where Sentinels* exist… and some of them are in prison!

(*I'm not big into the Guide part of Sentinel AUs—I like the idea of Sentinels having a person in their life who can help guide them, but the AUs where being a Guide is something that's in one's DNA like a Sentinel has always been kind of a meh idea… not as exciting as the personalised, free choice of the dynamic. Similarly, I'm not that keen on the Bonded aspect when it takes place before any significant relationship development (i.e, could be a special occurrence later on, but has to be a thing that is emotionally forged, not pre-established).)

My first thought with this trope is that both Chico or Miguel would make an interesting choice for Sentinel, because on one hand, you have Chico who imo runs El Norte lowkey (as a constant presence in the gang with its revolving leaders, you could make an argument that he indeed acts as a protector of his tribe) but then you have Miguel who's like the ousted charismatic leader, and if his powers activated at an early age, maybe in an instance of wanting to protect his single mother or some other back story, it could very well feed into that early cocky Miguel attitude and misguide him. He'd be good for zoning out as well, and then when he's ousted as leader of El Norte… well, what's a sentinel with no tribe? (hint: he eventually finds purpose in protecting his tribe of two…)

So that said, I lean toward the idea of Miguel being a Sentinel. Maximise that angst potential, oh yea~

Some further thoughts/possibilities for discussion (feel free):

Oz and maybe especially so Em City are specially designed to house Sentinels (along with regular humans bc hey, this is still Oz, so we have to have bad ideas!). Idk, maybe something about the walls dampen their heightened abilities. Something something.

Miguel definitely goes berserk in the Hole, which is supposed to help with sensory overload but due to his specific fears and anxieties, definitely does not!

Not Miguel/Chico, but I think other Sentinels in Em City would include Kareem Said (obviously), Dino Ortolani (went feral), Nino Schibetta (helped him amass such influence), and Jefferson Keane (but he only comes online with his powers after he has his come-to-Jesus moment with Said). Of the staff, I like the idea of Sister Pete being a Sentinel, too.

Like I said, I'm not a huge fan of the idea of Guides being an ability, so I think in an AU where Chico still plays the guide figure of this trope, some of that connection begins when Miguel is still leader of El Norte and Chico is actually, idk, aware enough of what's up with Sentinels (beyond the pop culture of it?) to be able to see when Miguel is on the verge of zoning out. And this helps him a lot coming off the heals of the riot, which became a huge sensory overload by the idea and made him catatonic for a while after in the hospital (where he meets Chico!)

There would be another layer of tension, then, in Chico's disagreements with Miguel in early seasons (even with his powers dampened, Miguel is still a bit overpowered, so surely that should help him raise El Norte's reputation!? Why is Miguel squandering their opportunity and hanging back?).

BUT, I think it could also potentially bring an angle of understanding/concern that would do a fix-it of sorts between them that would soften the whole Trying To Kill Miguel angle… Sure, at first he's irritated and disgusted by Miguel wasting his abilities, not being El Norte's Sentinel basically and letting Oz completely neuter him, but maybe he's also wary because he was there when Miguel got thrown into the Hole following the scuffle with Glynn and he knows the guy can get unstable and overwhelmed without something to ground him. HE's trying to mitigate that! But Miguel needs to step up, too! Maybe culturally influenced(?), Chico still has great respect and admiration for Sentinels which means that when El Cid comes in and wants to try and use Miguel as a weapon instead, since he seems to suck so bad as a leader apparently, Chico starts to be like :\ "wait El Cid, no…" and starts coming around to Miguel's side a bit, at least to check on him! His rationale being more like "well, it's no good if we break his brain" because at this point Miguel's, yup, in and out of Solitary, per the canon timeline.

I could see either Chico swooping in to help stabilize Miguel, ultimately, instead of trying to kill him, because his being unimpressed with Miguel's perceived ineffectiveness lessens the more that he can see Miguel is agitated and affected by all that's going on around him. Especially when he LOSES his boxing match? Like come on! That should be impossible with his strength. (Maybe also, Sentinels have an increased susceptibility but also increased tolerance to drugs? Like he can handle more long term but it fucks him uuuup and leads to a greater likelihood of sensory overload, depending on the drug). Instead of running away from Oz, Miguel has Chico flipping on El Cid to help calm him, or maybe he still runs away and Chico meets him in a dream in the spirit world that he begins to walk through more frequently in his stressed out state, or maybe Chico runs with him and out of Oz, Miguel's Sentinel abilities are full force, which helps them totally escape :P

OR, we follow the entire canon timeline and Chico steps up as a calming force for Miguel near the end of the canon timeline especially, after infrequently helping him at other points, and when he ODs, he dies, but Miguel bonds with him to bring him back, because he's the only guy in Oz that Miguel really has left in his mind. And once they're bonded, there's an added protectiveness between them going into post-canon, where Miguel is basically a Sentinel with no tribe or territory, per se, just Chico :)

Further thoughts/elements: Sentinel!Miguel being grounded mostly through little taps and touches that give his enhanced sense something to focus on, with this manifesting in him reaching out for Chico when it’s getting to be too much :3c Chico saying Stop, don’t touch me when he’s losing his shit being related

Grounding sex lol

Miguel most likely to zone out when he’s hyper focused on sound or sight, especially where there is none in the Hole or if it’s lockdown and maybe he’s starting to notice everything around him in a claustrophobic sense.

Hello Walid, thank you for your message. I'm incredibly sad to hear that your family is also suffering in this cruel war. The suffering that your people go through, passes my mind every day, I will never forget. I followed the link to your GoFundme and donated 10 euros, thats all I have for now, my apologies.

🗜 Chapter 1: Work - Episode 10: Imaginary Friend Previous (Luna) - Next (Fox on the run)

The Fox fell sound asleep as soon as he'd finished his bowl of Doenjang Jjigae, and Jack telling his tale. Jack picked him up and carried him to a more secluded place, beneath a shrubbery near the Moon Rabbit statue. How soft his fur was, and how sweet he looked now that he was sleeping. Not afraid, shy and wary like before. Jack would care for him and feed him. And maybe - one day - he would trust him and follow him home and then he'd be safe from whatever had caused his fear.

It was yet too early to go home. Leander would be still awake and Jack just couldn't face him after what he'd done. So Jack went to his safe place, Noxee's Bar - the ObNOXEEous. Here he'd get food that wasn't tied to foul obligations and strings that would suffocate him. And maybe Noxee had an idea what Dtui would charge from them. Noxee: "Oh my, I've heard what happened. Sit down. I know just what you need. Ramen, Star Wars and Makgeolli (raw rice wine)."

She always exactly knew what her customers needed. Lucky the man who'd be her partner one day. Jack so hoped she'd chose him. He worshipped the ground she was walking on, and he would make her so happy. Noxee spends a lot of time with Dtui, they work here side by side almost every day and she knew exactly what would come next. Noxee: "Just eat and watch your movie, hm? You know that even if I knew something - which I don't - I couldn't tell. To be honest, I'd rather expected you to pull such a prank. Dtui really isn't the type to interfere and lure someone in like this. It must be important, I guess." And Jack also knew that she couldn't go further into detail because the majority of Noxee's cusomers were just normal people. They had to be careful what they say. Not Jack's strong suit ö.ö And Noxee was right. Usually, he was the prankster among them. The emphasis here is on 'was' though. Jack: "Hey, I behave!" Noxee: "Yes, you do, even though it must be so hard. You can be proud of yourself." And then Jack's thoughts drifted again. She'd complimented him. She's so kind. Ach, and how beautiful she is. And clever. And funny. She's just perfect. One day, she will be his. Oh, yes. She will be his. Noxee: "Eat."

Jack delved into his ramen - and the movie. And soon he became Luke Jack Skywalker. Who rescued beautiful Princess Leia Noxee from the imperial prison. And if he weren't that distracted with Noxee's presence and scent and his food and everything else - as always - and had payed better attention, he would have figured that Princess Leia chose Han Solo, the Scoundrel...

Jack felt better now that he'd seen Noxee, watched a good movie and had some food that didn't put him into grave misery. He still wasn't ready to go home, so he thought he'd pay the 'Tarot Fortune Café' a visit. Maybe the cards could tell him what his future holds?

'It's advantegeous to invest in low-risk and safe places'... Hm.

This can only mean Gun-Il's intruments! So they'd solve the case of the wealthy couple! They'd be happy and satisfied and thankful and pay them well! He would be able to buy the drumkit and the keyboard - and Francine's grandson and him would form a band! A band! They'd have a rehearsal room - with electricity of course - and a functional fridge! Easy-to-please Jack took a glimpse into an awesome and bright future.

Meanwhile, back at home, Leander only hoped he did the right thing by telling the Kareems where to find what they were looking for. Why isn't Jack coming home? He would have agreed too, right? (TMI: The painting in the background is the first Leander painted ingame - a self portrait! What a crazy coincidence.)

Kareems payed well and they looked friendly and trustworthy. At least Mrs Kareem did. And Leander had seen his share of liars and fraudsters. He learned the hard way to tell one from another. With the money from this case alone they would be able to afford to move. And the word would spread and attract new clients. Jack deserved a better place to live. A young man like him had needs and wishes he couldn't fulfill here at this place - without electricity. A phone, a computer, a TV. Damn, they didn't even have a functional fridge - let alone a washing machine! Leander sighed. Or water in the kitchen...

Jack will be happy about the news. He'd tell him right tomorrow morning. And Dtui would see how diligently they were working and that they were respectable members of a community. Even if it was not 'their community', but it had to count. And maybe she'd let them off the hook . . . That would be nice . . .

And while Leander drifted into Morpheus' strong arms, Francine woke up. Huh, she must have fallen asleep on the bench on the sidewalk after Jack had left ö.Ö' Getting older is no fun sometimes...

Her bones ached. She stretched and went up to her grandson's room, and placed Boki on his empty bed. It is different this time, it had to be. She feels it.

Francine: "This is a present from Jack." . . . Francine: "His name is Boki, he's a sweet potato. You like sweet potatoes." . . . Francine: "Your friends need you."

'Once your thought became a feeling I was breathing, I was there (I was there) Who am I? Would you believe it I’m a fallen angel and I said

Call out my name in the middle of the night When you are afraid, call out my name, yeah Call out my name in the middle of the night Yeah, call out my name

You know I’m your imaginary friend You know I’m here tonight to give you strength When there’s monsters on your ceiling I’ll keep you safe and I’ll keep you dreaming You know I’m your imaginary friend You know I am. It’s you and I until the end

Who am I? The Evolution I was born inside your dream Trust me I’m not a delusion Oh I am everything you wanna be'

Hello, my name is (Walid Osama Kareem) and I am trying to live in North Gaza. Please do not ignore my message. The rest of the world has forgotten the Palestinian genocide. This is because of the damage done to North Gaza due to safety issues in NGOs due to food prices rising to astronomical numbers in the market. I lost everything in my life, my law firm, I was a lawyer helping others in their lives, but now I am unable to help myself and I have no home. My daughters and wife were injured in the warI live in a tent with my belongings and my children (my father, mother, two younger brothers, their husbands and children, we are all in tents). We can no longer get food in the market at reasonable prices. My children are starving. I can no longer buy medicine for them to treat them. Please if you can donate so we can buy food and medicine, every dollar helps
