Season one

-Narrative-

khadijah walks into her office towards her desk, turns to check on Synclaire, but stops when the phone rings. Synclaire answers the phone with the most horrible British accent, "Hello, this is Flava Magazine. How can I help you, Love?" Synclaire asks cheerfully.

Khadijah scrunches up her face, "Synclaire, what are you doing?" Synclaire covers the end of the phone and whispers, "I'm making them think we're international." Khadijah bended down and said, "make them think we need some money." Bending back up, taking papers from off the desk. "And keep in mind, this is a grassroots publication." She said sternly. Synclaire nodded, returning back to the phone. "Got it. Yo, yo, yo! How could I hook you up, G?" Synclaire yelled through the phone.

Khadijah shakes her and looks to the elevator when no other than Regine, walking out. "Hello, ladies. I've got good news, and I couldn't wait till you got home to rub your noses in it." She said, smiling at Khadijah.

Khadijah rolled her eyes, crossing her arms. "Well, if it isn't her royal heinie." Regine at the window turns around and smirks, "Look outside. What is Long, Black, and at the curb?" She said, pointing at the window. "I ain't touching." Khadijah said, walking back to her desk. Regine walks over as Synclaire runs to the window to be nosey. "Honey, it's a stretch limo." Regine said. "Well, good, it'll go with your stretchmarks." Khadijah said teasingly.

Regine scoffs, taking a deep breath side, eyeing khadijah. Synclaire walks up to the two, putting both arms on their shoulders. "Is it me, or do I sense a little tension here?" She asks. Regine and Khadijah look at Synclaire and roll their eyes. "Now, I know your Aries rising is constantly conflicting with her Taurus Moon, but can't we all get along?" She asked them nicely. Regine rolled her eyes again and huffed. "Well, look, you all can do whatever you like. I just came by to tell you that the limo outside happens to belong to my new boyfriend, Brad." She said, smiling dreamily.

Khadijah stood up, pushing Regine to the elevator, "If we didn't have so much work to do here, we'd love to hear more about your latest Canine Catch." She said, with a snide attitude.

Regine sits on Synclaire's desk, "Oh, would you?" She said. Patting khadijah on the arm. "Well, Brad and I were on our way to lunch, but we never made it out of the limo." She said, smirking. Synclaire gave her a dopey smile, while khadijah put her hand on her hip, not looking surprised. "He ate caviar from my cleavage, and we drank champagne from my shoe--ah!" Throwing her head back, laughing. "With them big old feet of yours, y'all must have been crazy drunk." Khadijah remarked, looking down at Regine's feet.

Regine waved her off and continued with her story. "I'm telling you, Brad, now, he could be the one. He is fine, educated, and wealthy. And has a butt that's dented on the sides, with the promise of power." Regine said. Fanning herself, giving the two women full imagery.

"We'll see how long this lasts." Khadijah said, shaking her head. Walking again to her desk. Regine frowned and got off the desk, walking to khadijah. "Wait a minute. What is that supposed to mean?" She asked, crossing her arms. Khadijah swung around, giving Regine a pointed look. "Men dump you like Eddie Murphy albums." Offended Regine looks away from Khadijah. "Look, Regine, if you want to have a lasting relationship, you need to start looking beyond man's wallet." She said, seriously.

"Eddie Murphy makes albums?" Synclaire asked, confused. Khadijah and Regine looked Synclaire with 'really' faces. "Synclaire, do your job, please." Khadijah told her. Synclaire nodded, going back to putting people on hold and reading her magazine. Khadijah snatched the magazine and threw it on her desk, causing Synclaire to pout.

Returning back to their conversation, Regine again gives khadijah an offended look. "Wait, are you saying I'm shallow?" Khadijah pretends to think for a second and eagerly nods. "As a kiddy pool." Regine makes an exaggerated gasp. "Mmct." She said, walking towards the elevator.

"I will see you at home, Synclaire. And by to you long neck Dinosaur." She said. Letting out her loud signature laughs, that could be heard from down the street.

Khadijah rolls her eyes and shakes her head. Going back to her papers, when the phone rings. "FlavaMagazine. Oh, hi, mommy." Khadijah said, smiling. Khadijah scrunches up her face in confusion, "who?" She asked. Khadijah smiled and signed, "You know ion like surprises." Khadijah told her. "Alright, I'll talk to you later, Ma, love you." She hung up the phone looking towards Synclaire.

"My mom said there was someone coming to visit. She said it was one of my best friends. But I wouldn't tell you because it's a surprise." Synclaire frowned in confusion, playing with a hair pink haired troll.

"Who do you think it is?" Synclaire asked. Khadijah shrugged, grabbing her bag and coat, "I don't know. But I know I'm hungry. Let's go." Synclaire rushed out the chair, grabbing her things, "don't have to tell me twice."

God’s Hand in The Arts & Entertainment Industry

This weekend I’ve been putting more thoughts into the direction I want to go with Lady Flava News. Years ago my Daddy told me that my ministry is with artists, creative soulz…he said it was not going to be easy but it’s the calling God has put on you. I have taken this very seriously over my 20 years of being Lady Flava. Through the Ups and downs…great memories and experience I wish I never had.…

[sharpen-jadescythe]

Sharpen's Warband, 3

In the packed Dalaran portal room...

"This is impossible." Hotchkiss glowered, and it was especially dark for a demon hunter. "There are too many idiots in here. We should just save the world some trouble and CUT THEM DOWN."

It was so loud in the Dalaran portal room, nobody really heard Hotch's threat. Sharpen had, though. He shouldered his new crossbow, but kept getting squeezed as people pushed to get through. There were only three glowing silver portals, and worse, it wasn't clear whether this one was the one to enter, or if that one was where people were returning from. Or if that one over there led to a displacement site that was currently active or what.

"I... don't know--"

"Idiots!!" Hotch snarled again. He didn't like getting shoved, he decided to be the one shoving people back.

"Goddess only knows what's keeping that shifty Al. But where is Hainko?" Sharpen hoped that would be enough of a subject change for the irate demon hunter.

"She used her magic to avoid all this, obviously! A shaman can just go to wherever the elements need them, can't they?"

"Well, I doubt Thrall was standing on the other side, arms wide open to catch her like some giggling tauren-sized, woman-child. It's got to be hectic on her end, too. Maybe if we can communicate with her somehow, she could tell us which portal to enter?"

"She abandoned us!!" Hotch near-roared with his frustration.

"Hokaaay. This was a bad plan." Sharpen began to look around for any help at all. No one official seemed to be about. Unless they were already flattened beneath the throng.

A woman's familiar voice pealed nearby, "The Kirin Tor doesn't need help from adventurers, they need travel agents!"

"Trixany!"

"Oh gods, it's him! Why are you so obsessed with me, Sharpen? Stop following me!"

Trixany was joking of course. Well, he hoped. He was never sure, with that one.

Sharpen attempted to introduce the two Blood Elves, though there was a crowd pressing in on all sides.

"Trixany, this is my new demon hunter buddy, Hotchkiss. He's incubus-infused. Hotch, this is my friend Trixany. As in Horde B-celebrity Trixany Cuomo, rival to Haris Pilton? She's goblin-infused--"

"Don't tell him that! Hey, isn't that traitor tauren Hainko supposed to be with you? I've got the rest of the Kaja-Cola Flava Girls in my warband. This is Mojo Jojo, Black Cherry Dhalia, and Shuga Slam."

A Troll, a Forsaken woman, and an Orc, all of them in slightly flashy armor and makeup, tried to make a greeting in the press of other armored, agitated, heroes' bodies. Sharpen had met these ladies before. "Aren't there like twelve of y'all?"

"Girls, he thinks he's teasing us, but he's not being very funny, is he?"

Hotch grunted, "Somebody didn't make the cut."

Sharpen noticed the edge of Hotch's grin returning, despite hectic circumstances. Trixany's mood started to lighten, too. She playfully stuck out her tongue.

"Alright, I call a timeout. Let's pretend this is a game of carpball and we need a break after a rough play. Let's go find someplace to sit down, away from this crowd, huh? We can't get anything done for Khadgar while trapped in here anyway."

The Legerdermain Lounge was an old, reliable comfort by now. All the upstairs rooms were booked up, as expected on such a day. But there was patio seating beyond the carved marble screen along the wall. A nice result of the coffee shop expecting so many people.

They had tea. Sharpen felt anxious, knowing so much was wrong with the world and they couldn't get out there to address the problem. However, the Alliance, nor the Horde, had conscripted any soldiers yet. Things weren't exactly dire. Just... disorganized.

Shuga Slam, the orc lady, was always pretending to be from a different clan. Whatever seemed to be trending. She had finally done the unthinkable and claimed to be a Mag'har Orc from alternate Draenor. Trixany hated it.

"You don't even look like a Mag'har! You still have that fel-green skin."

"...Only on my father's side. Like Garrosh."

Several of them hissed in breath, decided not to touch that topic.

"Your dear leader." Hotch waggled his glass of tea. Iced tea. Everyone else had ordered a steaming cup of brewed tea from the pot. Again, he wasn't the edgiest demon hunter around, was he? By comparison to the Illidans of the world, he was sort of a... B-demon hunter.

They tried to speak about pleasantries again, or keep predictions about the portal situation light. However, Hotch in his blindfold was getting hotter glares from Shuga each time the conversation went around the table.

Finally, the worst thing happened.

"... I know you," Shuga bared a fang. "I used to know you well."

Trixany snorted laughter, "Not if you were a Mag'har on alternate Draenor! Uh-ooooh!!" And she high-fived her friends.

Sharpen remained concerned, though. He had to live with this guy. All their supplies and weapons, their maps and other documents, their lives, everything was mingled together back at their base camp in Thalzdraszus. They shouldn't fall out.

"Well, isn't that, whatever it is, in the past?" Sharpen shrugged, tried to be helpful.

Shuga nudged Trixany, hard. She had to do it twice. "Trixany, are you really going to tell me you don't recognize this guy?"

Trixany blinked, "Well. I admit that he does resemble my long-lost little brother some. Except that this guy's a platinum blonde. By the way? Go off, king!" She snapped her fingers with attitude, "You demon hunters have been through enough. Yes, you dye that hair! Go find yourself some joy, amirite?"

Sharpen kept looking from Hotch, to Trixany. And back to Hotch again. The others were doing the same.

Sharpen smacked his forehead and leaned over the table. "That's... that's Trixany's brother." He muttered to himself. "It's so obvious."

Hotchkiss high-fived Trixany, suddenly very upbeat, especially for a demon hunter. "Thank youuu! I followed someone I cared about to the Outland a while back. I even joined the Sunfury for her, when she did. Eventhough I knew it was wrong to follow our prince down an evil road. But still, I always feared she would reject the monster I had to become. However... you approve?"

Everyone sat there, extremely uncomfortable and quiet.

"I mean, yeah, whatever. Like I said. You do you." And then she ordered more macarons for the table. "These are good, but aren't as cool as the Tarts' macarons, you guys remember those? So much glitter!"

Welp. At least now Sharpen knew why this mysterious demon hunter had showed up in his life, his warband. But were they gonna survive the Cuomo blunder twins not dealing with the obvious??

Sharpen eyed Hotchkiss very hard, to please tread carefully. There was a lot of rough adventure ahead of them, yet. They needed to pay strict attention to--

Then Sharpen blurt out, "Wait, so Burmussia, Coco, Sandy Dunes, and that other Kaja-Cola Flava Girl whatsherface, are now in another warband? Haha! So this IS a second, B-warband isn't it? Didn't I say it?! Trixany, you guys didn't make the cut after all--OW!!"

Then again, Sharpen the himbo always was so easily distracted.

Domination Nation, 4

Meanwhile at the Shady Lady in Stormwind...

Al: *looks around the bar* Kinda busy today. Is there a cultist convention in town or something? All those blue tshirts.

Balnazzar: *innocent grin, polishes glass* Oh, must be.

Trixany: *walks in with a Night Elf, a Goblin, and several other Horde people*

Al: Weird especially, because it's my job to know about such illegal happenings--Hold up, I know that particular washed-up Horde B celebrity!

Trixany: *monotone, wearing blue shirt* Alright. We give in, Balnazzar.

Al: *angry glare switches from Balnazzar to Trixany* And you're Horde. You're not supposed to be in this city!

Trixany: *monotone* Sharpen got tricked into wearing the Jailer's tshirt first, because he's...

Al: Sharpen?

Trixany: Yes. Then Sunthraze tricked me into trying one on, by taking me directly to Torghast H&M on a revenge date.

Sunthraze: *monotone* I said 'Let's go to the Maw,' she heard 'mall.' Was easier than I thought.

Trixany: Then Sunthraze also got dominated by Jailer magic after purchasing a blazer that was 99.9% off--

Al: Oh geez.

Trixany: Then I passed out the rest of the tshirts I bought at my Goblin sister's office, then to the Kaja-Cola Flava Girls. Haris Pilton later saw our monotone Domination Nation music video we did, and assumed it must be trending. She bought a Jailer crown.

Haris: *monotone, wearing jagged Jailer crown* Like our glorious leader. All realities should end, cause that's hot.

Trixany: *languid high-five with Haris* Also, we strangely get along now.

Al: *grabs Balnazzar's shirt collar over the bar* Why is the entirety of Team Trixany dominated by Jailer magic?? Fix them back!

Balnazzar: She just explained! It wasn't me. I'm just an innocent dreadlord who runs a wine bar in a gentrified neighborhood in Stormwind.

Al: You, sir, forgot that I stuck around for the Shadowlands expansion! I'm caught up on my intel.

Balnazzar: ... crap.

Al: Also, you're obviously a dreadlord with a Torghast H&M store card! It had to be you. Why are you doing this all of a sudden anyway? The Shadowlands conflict was over years ago. You couldn't really have hoped to turn anyone, not when the Jailer is long dead.

Al: *bangs his fist on the bar* And Denathrius is trapped in a sword! Who are your orders coming from now? Who?? You targeted my friend Sharpen, and now this! Answer me, is it Xal'atath??!

Balnazzar: Torghast H&M offered me new, free Twisting Nether delivery. No charge for shipping goods across the realities. What? So only mortals can have shopping addictions? The minute a dreadlord gets a colorful ad in the mail and falls off the wagon, suddenly he's a villain.

Al: I... I need to stop drinking at this bar.

Season One

Judging By The Cover/A Friend Is Coming pt1

khadijah walks into her office towards her desk, turns to check on Synclaire, but stops when the phone rings. Synclaire answers the phone with the most horrible British accent, "Hello, this is Flava Magazine. How can I help you, Love?" Synclaire asks, cheerfully.

Khadijah scrunches up her face, "Synclaire, what are you doing?" Synclaire covers the end of the phone and whispers, "I'm making them think we're international." Khadijah bended down and said, "make them think we need some money." Bending back up, taking papers from off the desk. "And keep in mind, this is a grassroots publication." She said, sternly. Synclaire nodded, returning back to the phone. "Got it. Yo, yo, yo! How could I hook you up, G?" Synclaire yelled through the phone.

Khadijah shakes her, and looks to the elevator when no other than Regine, walking out. "Hello Ladies. I've got good news, and I couldn't wait till you got home to rub your noses in it." She said, smiling at Khadijah.

Khadijah rolled her eyes crossing her arms. "Well, if it isn't her royal heinie." Regine at the window turns around and smirks, "Look outside. What is Long, Black, and at the curb?" She said, pointing at the window. "I ain't touching." Khadijah said, walking back to her desk. Regine walks over, as Synclaire runs to the window to be nosey. "Honey, it's a stretch limo." Regine said. "Well, good, it'll go with your stretchmarks." Khadijah said, teasingly.

Regine scoffs taking a deep breath side eyeing khadijah. Synclaire walks up to the two putting both hands on their shoulders. "Is it me, or do I sense a little tension here?" She asks. Regine and Khadijah looks at Synclaire and roll their eyes. "Now, I know your Aries rising, is constantly conflicting with her Taurus Moon, but can't we all get along?" She asked them, nicely. Regine rolled her eyes again and huffed. "Well, look, you all can do whatever you like. I just came by to tell you, the limo outside happens to belong to my new boyfriend, Brad." She said, smiling dreamily.

Khadijah stood up pushing Regine to the elevator, "If we didn't have so much work to do here, we'd love to hear more about your latest Canine Catch." She said, with a snide attitude.

Regine sits on Synclaire's desk, "Oh, would you?" She said. Patting khadijah on the arm. "Well, Brad and I, were on our way to lunch, but we never made it out the limo. She said, smirking. Synclaire gave her a dopey smile, while khadijah put her hand on her hip, not looking surprised. "He ate caviar from my cleavage, and we drank champagne from my shoe--ah!" Throwing her head back laughing. "With them big old feet of yours, y'all must have been crazy drunk." Khadijah remarked, looking down at Regine's feet.

Regine waved her off and continued with her story. "I'm telling you, Brad, now, he could be the one. He is fine, educated, wealthy. And has a butt that's dented on the sides, with the promise of power." Regine said. Fanning herself, giving the two women full imagery.

"We'll see how long this lasts." Khadijah said, shaking her head. Walking again to her desk. Regine frowned, and got off the desk walking to khadijah. "Wait a minute. What is that supposed to mean?" She asked, crossing her arms. Khadijah swung around, giving Regine a pointed look. "Men dump you like Eddie Murphy albums." Offended Regine looks away from Khadijah. "Look, Regine, if you want to have a lasting relationship, you need to start looking beyond man's wallet." She said, seriously.

"Eddie Murphy makes Albums?" Synclaire asked, confused. Khadijah and Regine looked Synclaire with 'really' faces. "Synclaire, do your job, please." Khadijah told her. Synclaire nodded, going back to putting people on hold, and reading her magazine. Khadijah snatched the magazine and threw it on her desk, causing Synclaire to pout.

Returning back to their conversation, Regine again gives khadijah a offended look. "Wait, are you saying I'm shallow?" Khadijah pretends, to think for a second and eagerly nods. "As a kiddy pool." Regine makes an exaggerated gasp. "Mmct." She said, walking towards the Elevator.

"I will see you at home, Synclaire. And by to you long neck Dinosaur." She said. Letting out her loud signature laughs, that could be heard from down the street.

Khadijah rolls her eyes and shakes her head. Going back to her papers, when the phone rings. "FlavaMagazine. Oh, hi mommy." Khadijah said, smiling. Khadijah scrunches up her face in confusion, "who?" She asked. Khadijah smiled and signed, "You know ion like surprises." Khadijah told her. "Alright, I'll talk to you later, Ma, love you." She hung up the phone looking towards Synclaire.

"My mom said there was someone coming to visit. She said it was one of 'my best friends'. But wouldn't tell me because it's a surprise." Synclaire frowned in confusion, playing with hair pink haired troll.

"Who do you think it is?" Synclaire asked. Khadijah shrugged grabbing her bag and coat, "I don't know. But I know I'm hungry. Let's go." Synclaire rushed out the chair grabbing her things, "don't have to tell me twice."

Can You Plot & Plan Without Understanding Your Industry?

Can you plot and plan with out understanding the industry you are apart of? I feel it is so important to do your research on what the ins and outs of your chosen area of interest and strengths in an industry and how it works today. I have found that much of the information I have obtained over the years about Indie Arts & Entertainment is the same but the presentation is different. Industry…

Ally’s Angels fires back!

((It’s Flava Girl Wednesday again!! A rival to the Kaja-Cola Flava Girls? Already?? Wait, which one is the ‘good one’? Which Warcraft girl band is evil? Or, are they both morally grey... Whu-oh!))

Daily Mail Stormwind: Good evening everyone, this is the sister studio to Daily Mail Orgrimmar--or they’re our little sister? Anyway, it doesn’t matter. We have breaking news. Long-time favorite energy drink GNOMEADE has released the following statement recently after the blow out between Trixany Cuomo and Phurr of the musical band Ally’s Angels--have you seen it? Here’s a re-cap and what Kaja-Cola rival GNOMEADE had to say in response.

Daily Mail SW: GNOMEADE’s statement released as an exclusive first to the Daily Mail Stormwind is as follows:

Ally’s Angels stands for unity not only among the super-friends of the Alliance but also harmony and justice for all of Azeroth. Trixany Cuomo had no legal call to throw one of her plate greaves at Phuur--not even during a time of war between the Alliance and the Horde would Miss Cuomo have a right to throw an item at the lead singer of GNOMEADE’s premier girl-band.

Miss Cuomo’s actions were completely uncalled for and GNOMEADE will be seeking legal repercussions against Miss Cuomo, the Kaja-Cola Company, and The Kaja-Cola Flava Girls band, whatever they stand for.

But, then again, that seems to contradict with what lead singer Phuur said immediately after the incident, which wasn’t so nice and tidy. Let’s play that clip:

“I vould NEVER normally talk about someone’s racial leader... But zhis girl is supposed to be at ze peak of her career, and she’s out here throwing metal greaves... Trixany needs to know: I’m not ze fellow Hordie down ze bar at ze Wyvern’s Tail, or in trashy Silvermoon.”

Daily Mail SW: Snap! Goodness--I have friends in Goldshire who would have behaved better than these ladies, even IF someone had made a comment about their racial leader--

Phuur: *sage Draenei voice* Zhat sound clip of my voice was heavily edited. Also, I did not insult Lor’thremar, the current leader of ze Blood Elves. I insulted Kael’thas Sunstrider, who is vastly different.

Daily Mail SW: And she feels such conviction about her position too! Phuur, lead singer of GNOMEADE’s Ally’s Angels, cut me right off. I was just about to introduce you Miss Phuur and let the folks out there know we have the Ally’s Angels ladies themselves here, in studio tonight. I was going to ask if you cared to back up GNOMEADE’s evident sass in response--but you’re well on your way to greatness here with your words. Please, continue. Do you think Trixany really is all that upset about Kael’thas? Still?

Phuur: Vell, I just think ze whole vorld of Azeroth would agree. And Darenor. Kael’thas vas a fiend and a villain. He deserves to be insulted in public. Why she felt so insecure after so many years serving as a Sunfury, being faced with the inanity of her own crimes first-hand--Trixany did live through Voren’thall the Seer surrendering to the Sha’tar, did she not? I vas there in Shattrath ven it happened, no?

Daily Mail SW: Ohh, it gets even more interesting! Were you an Aldor at the time that Trixany was a Scryer?

Phuur: Vat? Are you stirring things up intentionally? No, as I said. She vas vorse zen even a Scryer. She vas a Sunfury soldier misguidedly serving under Kael’thas all those years ago!

Daily Mail SW: I thought that was what you said, but I guess my mind still would not go there? Trixany Cuomo, an evil Sunfury! Get out!

Phuur: Yes, yes!

Daily Mail SW: Man, that blows my mind all over my face. *handsome smile* Not to over-focus on Phuur, ladies. I definitely want to get the other Ally’s Angels a chance to react to this--

Ally’s Angels: *the girls nod and politely reassure the Human man interviewing*

Phuur: And more zen even zat! I saw Trixany back then, vith my own eyes--who could miss her tangerine red hairdo? I saw her valk back, ooover the bridge when Voren’thaal and ze others surrendered to ze Light. She vent right back to Kael’thas.

Daily Mail SW: You must have some memory, Phuur!

Phuur: I do! It sounds crazy, but I do! They put Trixany in jail for it later, and that’s in the record books--but it’s like she came out of the Sunspire Keep last year after her sentence, and she learned absolutely nothing.

Daily Mail SW: Hold on, *taps his Gnomish hearing device* I’ve checked with our producers. This isn’t another rumor, this is true. Trixany Cuomo did, in fact, serve prison time in Silvermoon City after the Burning Crusade in Outland. It was because she started a pro-Kael’thas riot, even after the poor fel-addicted prince died. Apparently, Trixany’s completely reformed now. Or so we think?!

Phuur: Reformed? How? She got violent ven I spoke a truth about Kael’thas. Her fractured vision of the vorld--two vorlds--zat is the fallacy.

Ally’s Angels: Gelica (Human), Phuur (Draenei), Roary (Worgen)

Daily Mail SW: Spoken like a true follower of the Light and of the great Naaru who, as we know, saved our bacon on many occasions. Gelica? Roary? Do you have anything to add to this? It must have been a traumatic experience, seeing your lead singer being attacked in this way. It was at a pretty prominent event as well, right?

Gelica: *confident Human voice* Yes. It was the Gala for the Orphans of Azeroth. I just don’t understand how this Flava Girl band can claim to be cross-faction, or even sing cross-faction songs, when their leader behaves this way. I even heard they were singing something about Malfurion when they were at your sister studio, in Orgrimmar. What right did they have to do that?

Roary: *chipper, yet gravelly Worgen voice* Oh gods, that--Looky hea, yeah? I’m a druid myself. I almost gagged hearin’ that gab. That was ‘orrific. And how is Tyrande supposed to feel? Eh? Because that’s not a kind thing to say about someone’s wife, *she sings it* ‘my Shan’dooo’? That their husband belongs to you--

Gelica: *nods agreement* I am sad for Tyrande but honestly... It kinda is about time someone wrote a love song for Malfurion. *blushes* He’s such a sweetie.

Phuur: You know, everyone secretly loves Malfurion. If anyzing, zat vas our brand, not theirs. Hrmph. Zey vent too far.

Daily Mail SW: It almost sounds like Ally’s Angels is jealous that the Flava Girls grabbed such a hot topic in one of their songs. Did I guess right? It must burn that they made a song about a prominent Alliance leader when the flagship girl-band of GNOMEADE, who is a direct rival to Kaja-Cola, and named for the Alliance itself--Ally’s Angels--failed to hit that benchmark. Care to comment on that?

Roary (Worgen), Phurr (Draenei), Gelica (Human) in their proud Alliance officer armor-slash-costumes

Ally’s Angels: *cross their legs in unison, intelligent silence*

Daily Mail SW: How about it! Did I step right into the middle of what is really a GNOMEADE versus Kaja-Cola war, ladies? Did GNOMEADE tell you to insult Kael’thas at the orphans gala? Saying that Kael’thas used to punt gnomes off the decks of the Mechanar to go flying across Area 52, and at a save-the-orphans event? I guess that is kind of a big tell, right there.

Phuur: *polishes her nails on her blue tabard*

Daily Mail SW: I suppose I should also inform you ladies that I used to be SI: 7 before I took up this gossip rag gig.

Phuur: ...No comment. Vut those do sound like ze kind of conspiracy ideas you’d get by drinking Kaja-Cola.

Gelica: Ha! Good one, Phuur...

Phuur: *smirks* Hey, ven I see it, I see it.

Daily Mail SW: Excellent come back, ladies. Now, not to be outdone by the Orgrimmar studio, would you like to sing a little something to prove your merit? That you are the best Azeroth girl band by far and would never stoop so low as to sabotage the Horde’s Flava Girls?

Phuur: Look at him. He thinks he’s so clever, but I can see he’s put us on the spot. Ladies? Shall we?

Ally’s Angels: *stand and close their eyes reverently, then sing out loud and proud*

We are Alliance (what), We're not gonna give up (what), Allies don't stop (what), Allies slay harder (what) We are Alliance (what), Together we make it (what), Ally's Angels don't stop (what), For the Alliance!

Daily Mail SW: Sexy and inspirational! Ladies and gentlemen, I don’t know who could have said it better. Except for maybe... the Kaja-Cola Flava Girls? They’re bound to prepare a rebuttal to that argument, and I don’t think it’s going to be a fluffy cross-faction song this time. This should be an exciting, entertaining year with GNOMEADE and Kaja-Cola at each other’s throats via their respective girl bands and I, for one, can’t wait for the flavorblasted fallout.

Ally’s Angels: *pump fists, cheer and high-five one another as if after a good battle. An ice cold pitcher of bright blue GNOMEADE with glasses is wheeled out on a silver cart by a trio of Gnomes in corporate blue-and-yellow suits and ties. Phuur hands a glass over to their handsome Human host and toasts her bandmates before they take coordinated, elegant sips*

Daily Mail SW: Yum! Refreshing! Well it ain’t Kaja-Cola but it’s been giving me ideas all evening *he looks over a leggy, winking Phuur*. From everyone here at the Daily Mail Stormwind, *he raises his glass* thank you, and good night!

[my-plastic-life]

Before there was the Wild Hearts Crew, there were Flavas. First released in 2003, these dolls didn't last long on the shelves because Mattel had to pull them due to so many people complaining about their hip hop theme. I still have my collection from all those years ago, 100% complete right down to the tattoos meant to go on their clothes that I never used. :D So with a new month comes a new doll diorama! I'm showcasing this series (this is the first wave; I have sporadic dolls of the other waves but this is the only complete one I have) because I thought it was time to show them some love again. The crew is busy with their spray paint, giving those plain brick walls some character. Why? Because their boxes were literally covered in graffiti, and that back wall has the official logo and their names from their boxes, plus the heart from their Street Rod (I have it, but it won't fit in there with all the dolls lol). I also made all the little spray paint cans, and I finally got them right! The hardest part was making the lids because they had to fit on the cans just right in order to be removed if desired, as can be seen because some dolls are holding the cans without the lids. So without further ado, let's welcome the Blast from the Past - the Flavas crew!

Left to right: Kiyoni Brown, TIka, P. Bo, Liam, Tre', and Happy D.

Kiyoni Brown, TIka, P. Bo, and Liam

Tre’ and Happy D

P. Bo is dancing! This is one of the first lines of dolls Mattel made that featured different heights/shapes for bodies. Yes the ladies are all skinny, but each has a different shape to her. Tika, for instance, has one hip extended outward to make it look like she's dancing. Happy D is the shortest of the group while P. Bo is the tallest.

Kiyoni Brown

Tika is putting the finishing touches on her name!

Looks like Liam is also enjoying the music!
