The Getaway/Premiere - Tumblr Req. Part One.

*This WILL be a TWO part chapter. This one got pretty long, yet there's more I still need to cover. Chapter two should be up once I knock a few more requests out of the way.*

I walked along the red carpet, smiling for the cameras, waving towards the sea of fans and paparazzi. I finally reached the center, where there were huge movie posters of the new Deadpool & Wolverine movie lining the walkway. I stopped, posing in front of them in my yellow tight dress, that had blue accents matching Wolverine's infamous yellow suit.

I stood there and noticed Ryan and Blake in the distance heading towards me, but no sign of Hugh. Blake had worn a red and black dress, a nod to Deadpool's red and black suit, while I went with the dress to match the Wolverine suit. Hugh was running fashionably late, which was a bit unusual for him. Ryan and Blake stopped, posing for photos for the paparazzi. I smiled as one approached me with a microphone.

"Kaitlyn! How're you doing tonight?" She asked enthusiastically.

I smiled, "I'm great! I'm excited for you guys to see the movie. We worked super hard on it, and I know we've got a few cameos that we're still surprised weren't ever leaked." I chuckled.

The interviewer smiled, "Will we see a Jean Gray cameo?" She asked.

I shrugged with a smile, "I dunno. You'll have to wait and see."

While the interviewer and I continued making small talk about the film, I felt a hand snake its way around my hip. The interview's eyes widened and a blush appeared on her face. I looked up to see Hugh, looking dapper as ever in his black suit.

"If it isn't Mr. Hugh Jackman, Wolverine himself." The interviewer gushed, causing he and I both to laugh.

He smiled at me, "Good to be here, but let's talk about this one right here, in the Wolverine suit colored dress." He smirked, taking a step back and pointing towards my dress as I playfully did a 360 spin.

We continued to make small talk with the interviewer as she concluded her interview and went to interview Shawn Levy, who was standing a few feet away. As she walked off, Hugh pulled me close to him for photos as we posed together, smiling. He leaned close to my ear and began to whisper, "Those colors really suit you."

I chuckled, "Where were you? We all beat you here." I said lowly back.

"Had to take care of something." He responded, nonchalantly.

I nodded, as we went back to posing for the photos, continuing to answer mindless questions from numerous interviewers. We eventually met up with Ryan, Blake and Shaw Levy to pose together for group photos.

Ryan looked at me, "Well, well, look who finally decided to show up." He said sarcastically, shooting Hugh a glare, "You made this hot little number have to walk the red carpet by herself." He teased Hugh.

Little did I know...Ryan knew where Hugh was and knew exactly why Hugh was late to the event.

Hugh's eyes widened, mouthing to Ryan, "Shut up." Before turning to me, "Hot little number, do you think you could forgive me?" He asked, giving me fake puppy dog eyes.

I pursed my lips as if I were debating on it, "Hmm... I dunno." I said, shrugging my shoulders. "Should I?" I asked Ryan playfully.

Ryan shook his head, "I think he needs to make this one up to you." Ryan joked.

I looked back at Hugh, pretending to have a stern expression, "I do too."

Hugh chuckled at me, "And how would I do that?" He asked.

Ryan and I looked at one another before looking back at Hugh. We had all planned a weekend get away to celebrate the movie's release and to get some much needed relaxation after the work we'd put in while filming this movie. The only issue was that Hugh claimed he was unable to go. When this trip was planned, I had a boyfriend who would be tagging along. Hugh also had a wife. During filming, Hugh separated from his wife. Shortly after that, our chemistry began to grow and I started to notice it growing a little too much on his end.

I would be lying to you if I said it hadn't on my end. My relationship was...not the best. My boyfriend was a cheater, a liar and a master manipulator. I'm still not 100% convinced he wasn't with me just for money and fame. Three months ago, I decided to end things with him and move on with my life. To aid the heartbreak, I'd started playfully flirting with Hugh on set. Ryan enjoyed every minute of my boldness, which seemed to sometimes take Hugh by surprise but would cause everyone on the crew to die laughing at our banter.

I shrugged playfully again, "Ryan, I think if he truly wants to make up for making me walk the carpet by myself, he should go on vacation with us." I said assertively.

Ryan nodded, "I agree. Peanut here needs to get his pampered little perfect ass on the plane with us in the morning." He said as he pointed to Hugh, looking at him with a smirk.

Hugh rolled his eyes, throwing his hands up in defeat, "Alright, alright. I'll go, but you're buying all my drinks." He said towards Ryan.

The remainder of the premiere was spent with Hugh holding me close to his side. I could feel his gaze on me every time I walked off for a second to take a photo or meet a fan. Though, I still wondered what had him held up and caused him to be late getting to the event. Hugh was extremely punctual, very professional and never late to anything. The photographers and everyone at the event noticed Hugh's reactions towards me and had a field day on social media, including Ryan, who sneakily snapped photos for Instagram.

"@vancityreynolds: Peanut can't take his eyes off of her. I think I know why." The Instagram caption read, with a photo of Hugh smiling at my dress with a side-by-side comparison of Hugh in the yellow Wolverine suit.

I laughed as I scrolled through some of the comments, reading them.

"@wolviesgirl: I wish he'd look at me like that." "@HughJackmanLover62: UGH, so jealous. He wants her so bad."

"@EducatedWish92: I wish they'd stop denying their chemistry. They'd be the IT couple of 2024."

The next morning, we all met up at the LAX airport to board a private plane to Tahiti. It was my first time leaving the country. I was nervous, but incredibly excited to see another country and to see blue water for the first time. Although, flying over the ocean made me a bit uneasy. I brought my earbuds and chromebook to keep me entertained for the flight.

As Shawn Levy, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and I boarded the smaller private jet, I sat near a window seat towards the back of the plane. Ryan and Blake sat towards the middle and Shawn sat near Hugh towards the cockpit. We made small talk as we boarded. Once we all got seated, I pulled out my earbuds and put them in, searching for a song to listen to. I went to my 'serenity song', which was...don't judge me, Unwritten by Natasha Beddingfield.

I felt a tap on my shoulder, "You okay?" Hugh mouthed.

I nodded, removing one of my earbuds, "I'm okay, just a bit nervous about flying over an ocean." I chuckled.

He took the seat beside me, "It's exactly like any other flight you've been on. Just a nicer view." He said, trying to ease my anxiety.

I looked over and noticed Ryan snapping a photo, "This is goin' on the gram." He announced, causing us to laugh.

I laughed as I grabbed my own phone, taking a photograph of him acting as if he were the paps. I quickly posted it on Instagram with the caption, "When Disney decides to replace you as Deadpool so being the paparazzi is the only thing keeping you relevant." I made sure I tagged him. He instantly saw the post and burst into fits of laughter. "You wish, peanut!" He declared before turning his attention to his phone as one of his daughters began FaceTiming he and Blake.

As we began to hit turbulence, I could feel my anxiety rising. It felt like I was going to puke. "It's only some turbulence, love. It's okay." Hugh said softly in my ear as he protectively put his arm behind me, over my shoulders.

I sighed, gripping onto his side. "I know, but it's scarier when it's happening and you're literally over a fucking body of water."

He chuckled softly before realizing I was literally on the verge of a panic attack. "Hey? Look at me." He said, his tone softening.

I looked up at him as he continued, "Tell me three things you can see."

I looked around, almost frantically. "Um... I see you, I see the leather seats of the plane... I see... the snacks over there on the table." I stammered.

"Good." He smiled, "Tell me three things you can hear." He said as he caressed my shoulder.

I closed my eyes, "I can hear you talking... I can hear myself talking. I hear music playing. And I hear that dick head over there stammering on about why Welshpool was the best variant." I said with a slight giggle.

Hugh chuckled, "Good, good. Move three things for me." He said as he pulled away, allowing me to use my other arm.

I opened my eyes and began moving my drink, my phone and my chromebook. I almost instantly felt my anxiety ease off as the panic attack seized.

"Thank you." I simply said, as I gave him a half smile.

He smiled, caressing my shoulder again, "Anytime, love. I'll stay here until we land." He said sweetly as he put his arm back around me, and lifted the arm rest that was separating us, allowing me to scoot a little closer towards him.

Before I'd known it, I'd fallen asleep on his shoulder and slept the remainder of the flight. As we landed, my phone had been going insane with notifications, which told me the Ryan Paparazzi had struck again. I woke up, seeing Hugh smiling down at me, "We're in Tahiti, sleeping beauty." He teased as I sat up, grabbing my phone.

As we all grabbed our belongings and exited the plane, getting into the rental car, I finally had a second to look at the post Ryan had made. It was a picture of Hugh and I, me sleeping on his shoulder as he played on his phone. The caption read, "Pap Reynolds, STILL Deadpool by the way, has struck again. I remember when I used to nap on those beautiful veins of his."

I shook my head, laughing as I placed my phone back in my pocket. Ryan looked over at me, "How were the vein pillows?" He asked, straight faced.

I chuckled, rolling my eyes as Hugh laughed, "How far are we from the AirBnB?" I asked, completely avoiding Ryan's question.

Blake looked at the maps on her phone, "It says we're about 5 minutes out." She said as she continued to look at Maps on her iPhone while Ryan flipped through annoying TikTok videos. Levy was reading reviews from Deadpool and Wolverine. Hugh was sitting beside me scrolling through his Instagram and posting behind the scenes photos from filming.

5-10 minutes later, we pulled up to our AirBnB. It was a beautiful 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath oceanfront beach house. The ocean was a beautiful turquoise blue, you could literally see the bottom of it. The sand was a beautiful white color. I'd only ever seen this in photos. I was in awe as we were unloading the Uber and ushering our things inside. When we entered the home, everything had been fully stocked, including the mini bar, coffee bar and snack area.

Ryan looked at Blake, as he pointed to numerous surfaces in the house, "We're going to fornicate here. Here. Here. Maybe here. Fuck yes, definitely there." He told her as she snickered.

I laughed as I made my way down the hall, finding one of the rooms with the ocean view window, claiming it for my own. Hugh was behind me, picking the next room right down the hall from mine that also had its own ocean view. I laid my bags down as I plopped onto the bed and began connecting my phone to the WiFi.

"Guys, come in here for a second!" I heard Levy yell from the mini bar area.

I got up and made my way into the kitchen, where the mini bar was located as Hugh followed behind. Blake and Ryan coming into the room after both of us. Levy was standing with 5 shot glasses that he'd filled with a Tahitian vodka.

Levy smiled, holding his shot glass looking at us, "I just want to say, I am incredibly proud of the people in this room. Including you, Blake." He chuckled, "We made one hell of a movie, guys. It's time for us to relax, have some fun and celebrate." He said as he used his other hand to slide each of us a shot glass.

We all smiled, grabbing the shot glasses. "Let's fuckin' go on three." He announced as he held his shot glass up to cheers us. "1...2..." He counted as the rest of us followed in, "Let's fuckin' go!" We shouted as we downed the shots.

I cringed and squinted my face as the burn of the vodka hit the back of my throat, as did everyone else. "I'm going to walk the beach." I said as I sat my shot glass down and walked towards the door of the AirBnB.

"Hey, I'm comin' with ya." Hugh said as he walked towards the door.

"Get her, tiger." Ryan smirked towards Hugh, causing Hugh to laugh and shake his head at his bold friend.

I rolled the legs of my pants up around my knees as I took my shoes and socks off, leaving them on the balcony. "You coming to keep me company, Tiger?" I teased Hugh as I noticed him also taking his shoes and socks off.

He laughed as he grabbed my hand and led me to the shore, "I figured I'd come make sure you don't get abducted." He teased back.

I giggled, "And if I did... What would you do exactly?" I asked him.

He shrugged, "I didn't get that far. It sounded good in my head." He giggled as we walked the shore.

I want a season 2 to scavenger's reign SO BADLY. I need to know more about the space cult. and I need one full episode at LEAST of the little baby levi plants. I want to know how levi feels about losing fiona. I want to watch azi happy!!!! I want to see Ursula as the leader more. does she struggle. does she ask for help. and most of all I want to see more creatures!!!!!! learn more about them!!! ah!!! I love this show!

SO DAMN TRUE ME TOO the space cult seems so badass and i'm so intrigued by their whole deal. like what's up with the skeleton and the bandages around their feet and stuff. it kinda seems like catholicism but more death/illness themed?? also ngl i want to see how kris behaves/reacts in a situation where she's desperate and has lost any power/leverage she has. i feel like she's someone who relies on bossing others around and them naturally falling into line with her commanding personality, but how will she cope with being around ppl who most likely don't give a fuck abt any of that? i want to know............

I ALSO NEED A FULL EPISODE OF THE BABY LEVI PLANTS THEY'RE SO CUTE i hope the one stuck with the space cultists is gonna be OK....... and yeah, i do wonder if the show will draw parallels between fiona and levi at all, now that levi is a "mother" in her own way like fiona was to her (the little plant babies i mean). idk how much she'd remember of fiona given that her memories/personality from before vesta seem to be somewhat hazy, though.

ABSOLUTELY NEED TO SEE AZI HAPPY she's been through so damn much i want her to have a break and just be happy with mia for a while at least. although it'll be interesting to see if her dynamic with mia is a little different now, bc azi has just had this kinda insane experience that mia might not be able to understand or relate to. but i hope that they're able to overcome it......... or that she kisses levi. either option is good lol. and yeah ursula is intelligent and competent but she doesn't necessarily strike me as someone who would usually be a leader under normal circumstances, and she was probably fully prepared for sam to take on that role without realising it'd have to be her. i think she'd be a good leader but will maybe find it rlly difficult and stressful. alternatively, she could rise to it and actually be really good at it! i feel like it could go either way

i'm rambling now lol but on a final note you are so right abt the creatures. as a biology and zoology nut i love the wildlife in scavengers reign and how genuinely alien and weird it is. i need to see more fucked up little thangs NOW!! i love how the show will just present the most weird crazy alien designs, often for just something like a 30 second long cameo as well. a lot of ppl have compared the show to a nature documentary and it definitely has that element to it sometimes. i need to see more of vesta and its creatures

#scavengers reign #scavengers reign spoilers #ask #tysm for the ask i love having an excuse to yap abt this show

more method acting asks!

HI!!!!! oikawa cameo got the whole squad giggling im glad everyone found it as ridiculous as I did when I was writing it LMFAOOOO

and AHHH i'm so glad it could be a little soft spot when school was getting hard bc that's literally what it was for me when I was writing it <3

ah yes...my beloved levi and sasha truthers....I do believe I promised a little blorbo about the date that levi takes sasha on

@ri-sa20 HI SWEETIE PIE!!!! thank you so so much 😭 it literally does feel like the end of an era. I do believe that method acting is the 1989 of my fics (meaning it's LITERALLY such a magnum opus)

AND AHHHHHHH that's such a good compliment. I tried to make every plot point I was doing at the middle point intentional since the fic was already getting SOOOO LONG but i'm glad to hear that it landed the exact way that wanted to!

thank you for being here and reading this silly little story - i'm sending all that love back!

you read actor au sukuna and be happy with it. i did not write eren and y/n getting engaged in that damn aquarium for someone to ask me for a sukuna alternate ending (he's MARRIED!!! LEAVE HIM ALONE!) (i'm joking but also I refuse to write a sukuna alternate ending he literally already has his happy ending)

and as always, my unsolicited method acting headcanons/thoughts:

eren would write daylight by harry styles about y/n after the show stars airing...if I was a bluebird...I would fly to you....mf is literally a bird anyways

y/n always does short tours bc she doesn't enjoy touring as much bc it just reminds her of how stressed she was

every time y/n goes to one of eren's show he acts EXTRA unhinged - see: taking his shirt off and getting drenched in water by his bass players during only angel - to the point where the fans beg her to come to the show

teddy goes to the shows and has those big headphones on and also sleeps through the entire thing LMFAO he dgaf

after y/n and eren reveal their relationship, everyone KEEPS asking fan account girl how she was feeling and she just tweets a picture of her at the wedding with them like yeah...i've known about this for a while i'm perfectly fine

as side blorbos: I currently have writing the ribbons release chapter from an eren pov AND the levi/sasha date. lmk if there's anything else you would want to see!

#asks!#method acting

Saw your tags and omg HARD AGREE. Dragon Cry is SO bad nfkanmdsa

ME AND YOU SHAKING HANDS

Actually yes thanks for giving me the excuse to rant. Hold on. I'm typing furiously rn.

-Okay first of all they gave us the most ridiculously confusing plot I've ever seen. The twist with Sonya being Animus was kinda cool but they never really. Explained why she had a bond with him? She mentioned he used to be kindhearted at some point but we never see that literally ever at any point in the movie?

-The storyline is so all over the place it's a HOT mess. Especially the scene right after Natsu escapes the weird bird cage thing he runs off to find the others and suddenly they're all there? For some reason? Where did they come from. Why didn't they have a little reuniting scene. I literally rewound the movie to make sure I didn't accidentally skip a scene but nope they just made the most awkward cut/story progression in history I guess!!!

-The fanservice was so. SO bad. Like yeah the majority of the time I can at least tolerate it but this time it just made me extremely uncomfortable. Why are Erza and Lucy's boobs SO fucking large. Why did they have to make Lucy dance in like two strips of cloth. I thought I woke up in an alternate universe where Fairy Tail was a hentai. I genuinely wanted to vomit lmao

-The animation style really threw me off like I can tell it was either animated by a different studio or they wanted to try a different art style for the movie? But it just felt wrong and the proportions and faces were weird and. Yeah idk.

-What was up with the Three Stars?? Iirc we never got to learn their names or what their motivations were they were literally just. There. And they were built up to be these super powerful wizards only to get their asses kicked by FT like two scenes later. I get that being a movie obviously the fights had to be shortened but they literally did the same thing in Phoenix Priestess but WAY better. They really were like yeah uh we need some enemies for Team Natsu to fight let's just go with these guys and not give them any personality or backstory or motivations. (Except for the doll dad he was okay I guess)

-WHY WAS LEVY THERE. LITERALLY. ACTUALLY. She literally did nothing she served NO purpose in the movie she was just there?? Did they just want to shove in as many cameos as possible??? I know generally Levy isn't much of a fighter which is fine, I was kinda expecting them to do a Gajevy scene where Gajeel rescues her from some soldiers or smth which would have been fine but they didn't even do that. She literally just stood there and had like 2 voice lines. GO GIRL GIVE US NOTHING

-SPEAKING OF CAMEOS this is more personal beef than anything but man WHYYY wasn't Loke in the movie,, my boy my beloved my stupid idiot lion I'm so mad he wasn't even onscreen for like, 5 seconds

-I'm sorry but Juvia was so unhinged this movie her possessive/stalker behavior over Gray was actually super fucking creepy lmao

-What did they do to Happy. What the FUCK did they do to Happy

THEY MASSACRED MY BOY. LOOK AT HIM. HE'S GOT ANXIETY

-ALSO the scene where Happy and Lucy were crying over Natsu and we got tons of flashbacks from his POV of people who are important to him? WHY THE FUCK WASN'T HAPPY THERE?? They literally showed everyone from Fairy Tail precious to Natsu except Happy and I'm just sitting here like. HELLO?? You are SO wrong for that

-I will say I DID enjoy the little Nalu teasers we got especially the scene where Natsu showed Lucy the stars 🤧

But yeah I was here for this and this only:

The Nalu + Happy family bonding moments made it OKAY

Anyway sorry rant over. Dragon Cry bad. Natsu's brief moment of looking half dragon was a super sexy character design choice but the buildup is not worth it imo

#God damn it I just *clenches fists* hate Fairy Tail. That's a lie I love Fairy Tail.#Which is why I'm so mad this movie did it dirty #Shima answers questions #Phoenix Priestess was so good especially in comparison to this......#Ughhh this movie could have been FANTASTIC if they'd actually written it better #Anyway it wasn't AWFUL it was standard as far as anime films go. But I definitely wouldn't recommend #And I'm definitely not going to watch it a second time lmao #Long post #SORRY IDK WHAT TO TAG THIS. ASK TO TAG. I don't want to put my negative ramblings in the tags #Negative #I GUESS?? IDK #Fairy Tail #FT #Nalu #Fairy Tail Dragon Cry

Wedding Lonely Devil Proposals Ranked Part 2

3. Mammon

Oh my gooooddd

Nightmare. Literal nightmare proposal. Four little words made my stomach clench irl.

There's no way I could fake happiness if this happened to me. Even if I loved them. I didn't wanna be mean since Mammon's in my top 3 but yeah...Lucifer was right. This is hell. This is cringe hell.

So why #3? Well.

🎆🎇🧨SIMEON JUMP SCARE!!! 🧨🎇🎆

Simeon, cheerful, supportive, and always up for fun time, makes a cameo in the flash mob Mammon apparently forced the transfers to do. And complementing Simeon's joyous appearance?

An incredibly miserable Solomon! It was indescribably beautiful seeing him writhe in embarrassment for this awful plan. Any pain on my face would have faded once Simeon stepped in and melted away completely after Solomon's agonized dance. Thank you Mammon for my life.

Sadly, I can't rank Mammon's higher because technically speaking "two hot guys (one who I like more than you) made me smile" is not what most would call an ideal proposal. 3.5 barely contained panic attacks in a public venue out of 5.

2. Levi

Everyone's proposal kind of sucks and I can't say Levi is an exception. He programs a game for you, wildly misjudges your capabilities, backseat games, then ends up beating the whole thing for you. Whoops.

But sucking is in Levi's nature and the way he fucks up is organic to who he is - he even acknowledges it in his proposal speech.

I found it endearing and sweet. This proposal was genuine, held personal significance, took effort, and was overall a warm experience. Also, kudos for creating a game where the protagonist is supposed to be me and saying you want to take on life's struggles together. Someone lower on this list should take notes…

The only reason Levi doesn't clear first place is because he did kind of fuck it up. But I appreciate the hard work that went into it. I would say yes. 4 poorly considered video game recs out of 5.

And finally(ish)

1. Beel!

He is so so so cute, from his bouquet of vegetables to fighting the urge to eat the cake he made for you. Making my favorite cake with a ring in it isn't all that grand but a) I'll keep it real with you: none of the proposals are and b) I don't need a grand proposal. I just want it to feel meaningful. Just a bit of creativity, something that holds significance, and also I'm not dying of embarrassment. It's relevant to his theme, it's fun, it has thought out into it, and it requires some self-restraint on his end. Beautiful.

5 wedding cakes made with buttercream frosting out of 5.

Finally.

Lucifer

I intentionally ranked everybody before watching his because I knew this smug jackass would do some shit that might affect my rankings. I needed to be confident in my opinion.

Fucker. Humiliating how well this would work on me.

True #3. Lucifer

Sorry Mammon :(

#obey me #lonely devil review #obey me beelzebub #I'm happy he didn't instantly steal first place but he did make my top 3😮‍💨 points were made

I watched the new Haunted Mansion movie last night with my Dad, and it was quite good. A few let downs and underwhelming things, but overall, it was quite enjoyable. Also this had nothing to do with the film, but two girls kept talking during portions of the film and that really ruined the experience. Here's a little review I have, but warning, spoilers ahead!

One thing I enjoyed most about the film was all the references to the ride. Since I got to go to the Haunted Mansion in WDW last year, a lot of it is vivid in my mind. I like the premise of there being 999 ghosts haunting the mansion, and the Hatbox Ghost needed one more to be set free. Though I was missing those singing busts. We had the stretching portraits, the murderous bride, the hitchhiking ghosts, the ballroom dancers, but no busts??? I was kinda bummed about that really.

I also thought Ben's character arc was the strongest out of the main cast. He was the most compelling character and I thought he was well-written. Though, my favorite has to be Bruce (Danny DeVito), the excitable professor who doesn't care that he needs heart treatment to visit one of the most haunted places in New Orleans. I also really liked Owen Wilson and Tiffany Haddish's characters (though the reveal that Wilson's character wasn't a real priest had very little impact on the story), but I felt like Gabbie... was just there. I wish her and Travis's character arcs were explored and developed more. I read on the Wikipedia that they got the mansion to turn into a bed and breakfast, and I couldn't remember that really. It would've made sense if the mansion was inherited to Gabbie or something. I just wish we had more focus on the two, since Gabbie and her son ARE living in the mansion. However, Travis almost becoming the 1000th soul after he thought he was talking with his Dad was interesting (did they say how he died?). I liked how this was foreshadowed when Gracey had that fate after trying to find his wife, which I don't think had any real closure to that...

I did enjoy Jamie Lee Curtis as Leota, and I felt like she had just enough screentime and hype to live up to that performance. Unfortunately, Dan Levy was one of the big names mentioned in the film's cast, and yet he appeared in one scene? Completely underwhelming. Although the Winona Ryder cameo was nice, that too left me underwhelmed a bit. I also thought some of the visuals were fun, but it doesn't have that same charm I remembered from the 2003 film that was also based on the ride.

Speaking of, I do plan on rewatching the Eddie Murphy Haunted Mansion film and compare that to the new 2023 film. That post will be coming around the mountain when she comes soon.

So Weird. So Many Milestones.

It’s become a tradition to wrap the past year of So Weird happenings. This year was more quiet than others, but in a blur of convention appearances, new merchandise, and Easter eggs (intentional and not), a few things stood out.

And looking back to compile this post made a recurring theme obvious. It’s in the title, but let’s make it a little more clear.

The So Weird Podcast only uploaded one episode, but it was a memorable one when writer Jon Weisman (and his wife, and their daughter) joined Mackenzie Gray for a live script reading of Strange Geometry with scenes not in the aired episode.

The podcast itself reached over 28,000 downloads and co-host Cat met Mackenzie Phillips real life, in person.

Our Weirdo community as a whole reached milestones too! In 2022 we surpassed

1000 followers on Instagram

800 YouTube subscribers

300 forum members

100 TikTok followers

This pushed our total number across all our platforms to over 7,000 Weirdos!

Buried and rediscovered nostalgic finds this year were

a Guardian TV review from So Weird’s debut

that creepy wheels on the bus ad

Defunctland including two shots of So Weird in their research

The alumni thrived on and off screen. We celebrated and recognized our favorites when

Both Patrick Levis and Erik von Detten turned 40

Kyla Pratt and her Proud Family castmates won an Emmy

Jewel Staite wrapped s3 of Family Law and s1 finally aired in the States

Jerry Wasserman made a few cameos opposite Staite

Mackenzie Phillips made a Book Authority Top 100 list

Henry Winkler spent the day with Super Bowl Champions

Dionne Warwick began a Vegas residency

C Ernst Harth made it safely through surgery

Alexz Johnson welcomed her second child

Erik von Detten welcomed his third child

Our So Weird crew gave us reasons to be proud too.

Jon Cooksey and Tom Astle recounted history with The Look Back Machine. And with a few days before 2022 was all over, Tom shared that he discovered a new species and co-authored a paper about it.

That’s not a bad way to end a year that was different than recent ones but wasn’t a return to normal either.

👽 And with that, the 2022 season comes to an end. 👽

Thank you for being part of the So Weird fandom. Together we’ve shown what happens when people share and hold to something that gave (and still gives) light in the darkness that is sometimes life. 🔦

Whether it was simply reading posts, voicing your thoughts, or sharing and heart-ing on social media - it all matters. 💗 You make this matter and we want to say thank you for not just remembering So Weird but also not wanting to forget it.

Thank you.

🥂 Have a safe New Year. Keep the faith. And may the next several months include the weird (and not always weird 😉) things you love.

Ryan Reynolds And Blake Livelys Sons Famous Godfather Reveals Himself

Just weeks after Taylor Swift referred to the couple’s four children as her “godkids” in a cheeky social media post, Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy is sharing his tight-knit connection to the youngest of the stars’ bunch. “Little by little, all of the Reynoldses started being a part of the movie, including their youngest,” Shawn said of the action star’s family’s cameos in the new film in an interview with Variety published Monday. “As the proud godfather of Olin, that might be my favourite voice cameo.” In the R-rated superhero flick, which was released last month, Blake, along with her and Ryan’s four kids — daughters James, Inez and Betty, and son Olin — each had a role. The couple quietly welcomed Olin in February 2023. Shawyn did not share whether he was also the godfather of the pair’s other little ones. He and Ryan have built strong ties in recent years, as the filmmaker has directed the Canadian actor in 2021’s Free Guy, 2022’s The Adam Project and now, most recently, Deadpool & Wolverine, which also stars Hugh Jackman. Ryan’s bond with the Deadpool franchise runs so deep that he even revealed Olin’s name at the New York City premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine last month. “I want to start by saying thank you to my wife, Blake, who is here,” he said in a clip from the premiere. “I want to thank my kids — James, Inez, Betty, Olin — who are here. I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment will be the most traumatic thing — that is, in the contents of this movie — that happens in your wondrous life.” Source link via The Novum Times

DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE: Is This Meta Commentary on Hugh Jackman?

Deadpool And Wolverine is winning all over the box office right now. The newest and only Marvel Studios release of 2024 is living up to its anticipation as a Deadpool sequel but also acts as an amazing send-off to the Marvel-Fox Universe. But its biggest criticism is that there is little story and more gratuitous cameos. While I have a similar issue, further thought makes me realize that there’s a lot of meta-commentary happening here. Read on to see how the Deadpool And Wolverine Logan may be a nod to the actor’s long run as the character. Spoiler Alert: This article contains major spoilers for Deadpool and Wolverine. https://youtu.be/YrwFMlnMAms The Wolverine In The Movie Isn’t The One Fans Love The first thing that originally turned me off about Deadpool And Wolverine is that this is a variant of the Logan character we’ve seen in the Fox movies since the first X-Men movie in 2000. So whatever emotional arc this Deadpool And Wolverine Logan went through in the movie, felt hollow to me, as I have no emotional investment in him or whatever off-screen tragedy he has to overcome. So while Hugh Jackman delivered a masterful performance, without that connection, it didn’t resonate with me. The Fox/Marvel Universe Plays A Supporting Role The real surprise of Deadpool and Wolverine is how the film acts as a love letter to the Fox universe of Marvel movies. While it absolutely is very narratively empty, the larger, and simpler story is very meta, thereby making the cameos feel imperative to the story. For instance, The Void is basically where variants go when they are removed or no longer exist on the timeline. Similar to the status of these decades-long Marvel/Fox characters that are about to be rebooted forever in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. So it makes sense that that entire Marvel/Fox universe characters would be in The Void, so those cameos become less gratuitous, and part of the story. Similarly, the Deadpool And Wolverine Logan is one who lost his entire X-Men family. He feels guilty for not being there, and for essentially having survivor’s guilt. His entire arc in the movie is about forgiving himself for his mistake, mourning those he lost, and finding a new family. WE can also say the same thing about Hugh Jackman’s tenure in the role of Wolverine for the last 24 years. How Hugh Jackman Has Played Wolverine Across Two Movie Studios Jackman has also lost his entire cast from the X-Men movies since that universe has now ended. He is the only one who survived the Fox/Disney merger and is continuing on in the same role from before but in a new universe. And while Jackman’s future in the role is uncertain, audiences also have to move on from those fan-favourite characters and find new favourites in the new rebooted versions in the MCU. So seeing the movie and the Deadpool And Wolverine Logan from that perspective adds a very different light to the whole thing. And while this just may be a fan theory, the one thing we can all agree on is that director Shawn Levy made the movie in Deadpool and Wolverine that he wanted. Everything was intentional. And this Deadpool and Wolverine Logan depiction feels like an intentional choice. Deadpool And Wolverine is now playing in theatres. What did you think of the Deadpool And Wolverine Logan? Let me know in the comments below or over at X at @theshahshahid.

CC REVIEW

prefacing this by saying i have little aside from praise for Beyoncé and Cowboy Carter as an album like… Beyoncé has done it again! what can i say? she knows how to make music. i literally cannot stop listening to about half of the album. YAYA to the end might be perfect actually? anyways

okay let's do the tracks one by one now.

American requiem - beautiful gets gospel and classical like part writing in there, the continuo happening is crazy 2 me

Blackbird - gorgeous, wish we got a little more from tanner adell and co. also what is that mysterious ticking noise??? asking the Beatles that question. why is a click track running

16 carriages- only weird thing: how are you STILL underpaid… aren’t you your own boss? still a beautiful epic ballad epic! dying to know what the two different crashes in the chorus are

Protector - kind of perfect. when she performs this live?? The stadium will flood. “I will be your projector!”

My rose- love triple time love three party harmony. she Trinity’d on this one, also acts as a little coda for the first arc of the album

Smoke hour - hi Willie! I think the radio concept is very effective

Texas Hold’Em -pour that liquor on me honey… my favorite of the two initial singles… also the whole “young and going anywhere and in love” thing yas. ALSO the banjo playing is such a treat. whatever the short time between the rumors she was doing a country album and the release of texas hold 'em i DID think "wow i hope she gets rhiannon giddens involved"

Bodyguard - like 6 months after Texas hold em.. so much more sing, bass is just sitting while beyonce flies over it all... also she's a genius for making "kevlar" three syllables. not much more i can say except i cannot stop singing it

Dolly P - “that cameo by Dolly Parton, and i DO mean cameo as in the app” - macy rodman

Jolene - personally i think the weakest song on the album.. many have said how weird it is that she turned such a lesbicious song into this defense of heterosexual marriage.. i think it works best if you imagine that Jolene has no interest in her man and Miss Carter is wildly jealous.

also weird bc in most of the love songs it sounds like she’s singing as a much younger woman in life and love so like.. is this autobiographical? bc, Lemonade does exist. Anyways

One last thing - very funny for this to be Jay-Z’s only credit on the album and he’s clapping. you have to laugh!

Daughter - she beat Jolene ! of course only deep love for the caro mio Ben interpolation and thrumming guitar throughout… and her deep contempt for her father is sooooooo lmao. I need to read interviews from Miss Tina

Spaghetti - i saw so much hate for this online and. sure it’s weird but Essential to the project of CC. also Beyoncé rapping in triple time is not smth I’m doing to diss. it's cunty country time

Alligator Tears- maybe i just love all her ballad-y love songs… the banjo (?) line on this is gorgina, the low harmonies, the altered idiom… like yes

Smoke Hour II - very funny and pointed, literally telling the listener what to think. preaching to the choir willie!

Just for Fun - mmm yes… bc I can’t read i thought this was Willie Nelson singing at first.. getting a little more gospel in here... i actually wish Willie Jones had a whole verse to himself!

II Most Wanted - incredible, wish Miley took the harmony on the second verse or smth… also so weird that she did this and Jolene. which is it??? R u gay or not. Well, does that really matter?

Levis Jeans - fun and cute. did not realize Mr. Post was named that. also interesting which white artists she chooses to work with… Post Malone is very much giving Florida Georgia Line/a “hip hop” artist who would feature on a country song. "Baby let me rattle that snake with my venom" is really good.

Flamenco - similar to My rose, closes this little arc very neatly. it’s doing its job!

The Linda Martell Show - once again doing the work. it’s 15 seconds

Ya ya -literally this launches the insatiable arc to the end. planting us in the 60s with the sexiest sample ever (bass line from boots were made for walking), the good vibrations interpolation, the rock vocals… it’s kind of everything. this more than anything makes me want a rock album from her

Oh Louisiana - genuinely no shade but how IS Beyoncé the sole artist on this? id kill to read the agreement between her and chuck berry's estate

Desert Eagle - I did not realize this song was only one minute long at first… she gives us so much. “Do si do and it gets creamy in the middle” is NASTY! and that wet slap bass thing? yes. just yes.

Riverdance - BOUNCE on that shit.. The slightly off kilter guitars and echoing sustained piano yasss..Steve reich is kinda quaking in xir boots

II hands II heaven - she put something in this i cried at a traffic light imagining a love like “put my feet on the dashboard, now go really fast boy” anyways the chugging in this slash galloping that’s in tyrant and sweet honey omg. like the gallop starts here

Tyrant - she’s still cooking the pot is still BOILING… that clap pattern could kill in a classroom. idk if like 3rd graders “should “be listening to it but OMG ...“5’9 thique and fine” she’s just like me... the harmonies not quite gelling with the beat at the end yes please!

Sweet honey buckin - that piano accordion vocal sample whatever is wheeeeezing... is this zydeco? she’s going home her man is dead!!! and the patsy cline interpolation yes yes yes. that doo wop sound is so sexy

Amen - Pitch cue cueing up the beginning of the album.. mwah. Very much a reprise of the first track, love to the plagal cadence as always.

overall, I love love love what she's doing. Beyoncé is so good at pretending to be herself it’s crazy like when is it her when is it “cowboy Carter” or the character… which is named after her... not to go for the easy analysis but the brechtian bits like the pitch cues and the interlude videos literally showing the titans of country as PUPPETS... like there is no illusion that this is not a performance.

which i think works so well for like. her thesis? what she's trying to say. like it is an exploration of the Blackness and Black music in country music but also she's not going old-time with it. so many of these songs sound like "radio country." and I think there's two parts to her point: the music that country was born from and country itself was pioneered by Black musicians (blues, zydeco, GOSPEL, "folk" and "old-time" music), but also that country music today has cribbed so much for hip hop. the country purists look foolish and more nakedly racist when Florida Georgia Line exists. maybe the purists are denouncing them too! but the radio stations are not.

now for the "critique"

my issue with CC is political, obvi. i feel comfortable critiquing Beyoncé on this bc 1) i think she’s wrong and 2) she’s playing with some of my favorite concepts (i love Genre) so i feel semi in my lane. where the album falls apart is when it comes to America. beyonce, bianca, ms. carter, you're right. there IS a whole lot of red in that white and blue that history can't erase! this house WAS built on blood and bones! Them big and old ideas ARE buried here! now i'm going to turn your question back to you: can YOU stand for something? idk, your vision of a new America, or a rehabbed America, feels very flat in the face of failing to extend a lick of solidarity to Palestinians begging you to pull your movie from being shown in Israel. You certainly don't need the money. like i want to believe you are trying to say something but what the hell is it? what is this American you envision? it doesn't seem like anything would change.

anyways loved the album! will be singing so many of these songs for years to come.

First Take: The Marvels - two out of three ain't bad

Spoiler free as usual. Because Goose would eat me.

SYNOPSIS: Carol Danvers gets her powers entangled with those of Kamala Khan and Monica Rambeau, forcing them to work together to save the universe.

Ah, the sequel the internet wrote off when it was greenlit. The Marvels is one of the MCU projects which has suffered from Covid delays the most - July 2022 initially, then November, then February 2023, July, and finally settling here - as a direct knock on of all the TV shows on Disney+ (including the vital setup of this movie in Ms Marvel and WandaVision) being displaced due to Covid shutdowns. But even with no cast able to promote it until the early hours of its release day, The Marvels has some promise, but its execution does have some minor quibbles.

youtube

Nia DaCosta of 2021 Candyman reboot fame is in the big directors chair (And also co-writer with Megan McDonnell and Elissa Karasik) on her first major Hollywood, big budget film - and she does an admirable job turning in a rare Marvel film under two hours - a tight 1 hour 45 minutes - that is very up and down. Some elements excel, others feel like hasty rewrites, and some ideas feel a little out of place, those who have seen the film will likely know which sequences I am referring to. It is shot really well by Sean Bobbitt, as any MCU project would be at this stage (with the IMAX kit - something which must be a blessing with the film currently taking the screenings that should've been occupied with Dune 2 had the strike not happened) and of course, the Kamala character isn't the only thing making the leap from Disney+ to cinema screens, as Laura Karpman provides the music just like she did for the first season of What If and Ms Marvel.

Where this film is saved from the depths of another MCU rant is its cast, and it is obvious that Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris and Iman Vellani get along well, as the chemistry this trio have is damn good. On top of these leads we've got Zawe Ashton, Gary Lewis, Park Seo-joon joining in, with Zenobia Shroff, Mohan Kapur and Saagar Shaikh returning from Ms Marvel, and of course, for the first time since Secret Invasion was torn apart, Samuel L Jackson is back in an MCU film as Nick Fury - along with a few MAJOR cameos throughout the film that *finally* set off future development into Phase 5 (and beyond). It might've been Marvel's worst opener to date, partly because of the strike and the internet's response to Larson - but for the first time in a while, I can see where this is going. Over to you Shawn Levy - bring us Deadpool 3 in a state that's worth the wait.

THE VERDICT

The Marvels is a perfectly fine - not a great - MCU film that gets the job done in under 2 hours. Had SAG/AFTRA not been on strike it would've fared better at the box office, but considering the impact this film - and particularly the last 10 minutes have - on the rest of the Multiverse Saga to come, off the back of Loki's season 2 finale it feels like Kevin Feige, once again, had a long term plan... but we just didn't know it yet.

RATING: 3.5/5

DCEU in general part 2

A while ago I made an editorial where I pointed out the DCEU`s lack of planning and came up with my own idea on how to structure the DCEU. I ended that editorial with Justice League 3 because I felt that a cinematic universe didn`t have to keep on going indefinitely. But after a while I felt that I still had a few ideas left for my own version of the DCEU, and now that the folks at Warner Bros have decided to try a new DC universe and use Marvel`s approach and actually structure it this time I feel that I should strike while the iron is hot and let these ideas out. If they had planned the DCEU from the beginning there wouldn`t be a need for Flash to reboot the universe in his (by the time I`m writing this) upcoming movie. At least not this early. If I knew then what I know now, would I have hired Ezra Miller, Jared Leto, Amber Heard and Zachary Levi? No, I don`t think so. If I could run so fast that I could screw the laws of physics and travel backwards in time, again, this is how I would have continued my version of the DCEU.

TV series Since there are a lot of characters that I want to put in this universe but I don`t think there is enough time for me to do so, if I were to only focus on the movies, I decided to include TV series in the DCEU. I don`t think there would be a need for a Flash show since he would already have his own movie. I think I`d cast Grant Gustin as Barry Allen. I could give Supergirl a series though.

Green Arrow series After Man of Steel has premiered there could be a Green Arrow TV series that takes place within the DCEU. The show could introduce characters like Black Canary, Speedy, Huntress and the Question.

Constantine series I would definitely want Matt Ryan as John Constantine. The show could introduce supernatural and occult characters like Zatanna, Dr Fate, Etrigan the demon, Phantom Stranger, deadman and the Spectre (who was technically introduced in an episode in the real show).

Supergirl series Like I said: there wouldn`t be any need for for a Flash series but I there should be room for a Supergirl series. After she has had her first appearance in Man of Steel 2 she could star in her own TV series, and have a cameo now or then in the Green Arrow series.

In my previous editorial "Constructive criticism: DCEU in general" I wrote "Then do some sequels to Green Lantern, The Flash and Aquaman (doesn`t necessarily have to be in that order)" but I didn`t go into any details (because I didn`t have any ideas for those movies at that time). So I want to takes this opportunity to retroactively add some ideas to those phase 3 movies, and put a little meat on the bones of the Cyborg Solo movie.

Solo Cyborg movie Cyborg fights some terrorists that he finds out are involved in the accident that almost killed him and led to him becoming the cyborg he is now.

Green Lantern 2 Since there can now be more than one Green Lantern per sector, Hal Jordan recruits a partner: John Stewart, a marine who now works as an architect. Their first mission as an intergalactic, crimefighting duo: To escort a witness to a trial where he can give a testimony. A testimony that could hopefully bring down a mob boss, and said mob boss has hired a bounty hunter to kill the witness. The Bounty hunter is none other than Lobo, the last czarnian. Also: turns out that there is another man who was worthy of becoming a Green Lantern: Guy Gardner. Hal picked John Stewart because he was closer. In a mid-credit scene Guy Gardner is visited by Krona who tells him this and as consolation offers him a yellow lantern ring.

The Flash 2 You know how every Indiana Jones movie (and James Bond movie) always starts with the main character right in the middle of a previous adventure? That`s how this movie could start. First Flash fights and defeats Trickster in the first five minutes. His struggle to prove his dad`s innocence continues, he fights Mirror Master (the main antagonist) and in the end Iris reveals to Barry that she knows that he is the Flash. Mid credit scene: Weather Wizard frees Mirror Master and Trickster from prison and introduce them to Captain Cold.

Aquaman 2 Aquman is growing into his role as a king, acts as a mentor figure to a young atlantean named Garth (Aqualad) and has a son now named Arthur Jr. Arthur Jr. is kidnapped by Black Manta who almost kills him but thanks to Garth, Arthur Jr. survives. Aquaman fights Manta and almost kills him but decides to spare his life and sentence him to prison. Mid-credit scene: An alantean breaks Black Manta out of prison. He works for someone who wants Manta to help them defeat Aquaman and take over Altantis.

Phase 4

Man of Steel 4 Superman is kidnapped by Mongul and is forced to fight as a gladiator on Mongul`s "Warworld". He is still strong but weakened by the planet`s orange sun and in order to survive, defeat Mongul and escape Warworld he has to team up with... Lobo. In the end Mongul is defeated, the prisoners are freed and Superman takes a spaceship and hopes that it will be enough to take him home back to Earth.

Green Lantern 3 Hal Jordan and John Stewart teams up with Carol Ferris who is in possesion of a Star Sapphire ring (that works similar to the Green Lantern ring) to fight Sinestro, Krona, Guy Gardner and Doctor Hector Hammond who have their own Yellow Lantern rings. In the end though, Guy turns on the yellow lantern gang and takes the side of the heroes.

Steel (See my constructive criticism of Steel)

Wonder woman 3 Diana, Cheetah and Supergirl teams up to fight Ares (the real one this time), who has been freed from his prison by Circe, Phobos and Deimos.

Flash 3 Barry finally gets his father out of prison. Also: he fights the Rogues: Weather Wizard, Trickster, Mirror Master, Captain Cold and Captain Boomerang. (Captain Boomerang has had the explosives that were planted in his neck removed and joins the Rogues as a quid pro quo.) But since Captain Boomerang had a character arc in Suicide Squad he turns on the Rogues in the third act.

Aquaman 3 Aquaman (and Garth) has to fight Eochaid Bres who has allied herself with Black Manta.

Justice League 4 Superman finally returns to Earth. JL fights Brainiac. Yes, I know, in my previous editorial I thought that it would be a good idea to use up Brainiac in Man of Steel 2. But since Brainiac is a pretty big deal when it comes to villains it would be better to save him for a Justice League movie. So I would like to retroactively change my villain idea for Man of Steel 2. Instead Superman and Supergirl could fight... Mr Mxzpltk. Because why not?

Phase 5

Joker movie A new inmate at Arkham Asylum who has the Joker as his role model convinces the Joker to tell his backstory. The Joker tells the tragic story of his life. His name was Joe and he was a janitor at Ace chemicals who had dreams of becoming a comedian. There was a woman that he loved, but she died. in the end he joined a gang of criminals who one night decided to rob Ace chemicals. Batman showed up, defeated the other members of the gang and threw poor Joe into the vat of chemicals. He was flushed out into a river, crawled up on land, had a mental breakdown and laughed at the nightsky like a madman. He was now the Joker. The new inmate notices a few inconsistencies in Joker`s story however. Riddler and Poison Ivy who has been sitting there and listened to the story with him tells him that the Joker does this all the time, he makes up new versions of his past. As far as they know, he has no true back story. The inmate is disappointed and leaves, the Joker himself just thought it was fun and has a good laugh.

Swamp thing It begins In Medias Res in the swamps of Louisiana. A bunch of goons are harassing Alec Holland, he tells them to go away, they blow up his lab, on flames he throws himself into the swamp. He passes out and wakes up as the Swamp thing. We find out more about his life before he accident a little later. John Consantine shows up and helps him discover some powers that he didn`t know he had. Then a giant threat of some kind shows up and Swamp thing has to fight it.

Green Lantern 4 Hal Jordan gets possessed by Parallax and John Stewart, Guy Gardner and Carol Ferris has to fight him. In the end Parallax is driven out of Hal`s body but is not quite defeated. You can`t destroy energy after all, and you can`t defat fear by punching it. Hal, feeling that he is no longer worthy to use the green lantern ring gives it to Guy who reluctantly accepts it.

Shazam 2 The Shazam family has to fight Dr Sivana who has teamed up with Mr Mind and Black Adam.

Harley and Ivy Nothing against Birds of Prey (and the fantabulous emancipation of one Harley Quinn) but I had my own idea for a Harley Quinn movie that I really like. Harley has been dumped by the Joker and thrown out on the streets. Poison Ivy gives her a place to stay. Harley decides to commit a crime to show herself that she`s better off without the Joker and doesn`t need him anymore, she`s gonna steal the MacGuffin diamond. But it turns out that Roman Sionis (Black Mask) also wants the diamond, and Huntress wants to prevent both of them from stealing it. In the end Catwoman comes out of nowhere and steals the diamond from them. Black Mask is angry, Huntress is angry and so is Harley, but only temporarily. Harley realizes that she got what she needed: a fun adventure with a friend who cares about and respects her: Ivy. It ends with them under the moon, sitting on a rooftop and sharing a pizza. Harley kisses Ivy and then realizes something about herself. Harley: "I think I`m bi." Ivy: "I think so too."

Batman film A scientist named Kirk Langstrom has created a serum that turns him into a big, human-like bat. A Man-bat if you will. Batman has to find him before Prof. Hugo Strange does. Hugo wants to use Man-bat`s DNA to create more bat-creatures but Batman wants to save him. Hugo is also a skilled psychological manipulator and uses these skills to try to get into Batman`s head.

Justice League 5 An adaptation of the tower of Babel

Phase 6

Man of Steel 5 Supes fights an evil, alternate reality version of himself called Ultraman and gets help from a good, alternate reality version of Lex Luthor*. Mid-credit scene: A satellite orbiting the Earth. A large man in a futuristic armor talks to his assistant, a woman named Harbringer. The man himself is called... Monitor. *Both Ultraman and Good Lex come from the same alternate universe which I will name the Ultraman universe.

Lobo movie Lobo does his usual thing, then he gets transported to an alternate reality, one where the forces of Darkseid defeated the Justice League in the first JL movie*. At first Lobo likes living in a world where the good guys didn`t win, but then he realizes how boring it is. In the end Lobo returns to his home dimension. Mid-credit scene: We are introduced to the Anti-Monitor! *I will call this the Darkseid won universe

Cyborg sequel Victor Stone is reunited with an old, charismatic friend: Ronald Evers. He finds out that Ronald is involved in criminal activity and has to fight him.

Flash 4 Flash VS Reverse Flash. also: Mid-credit scene with Monitor and Harbinger

Wonder woman 4 Diana become a mentor figure to Donna Troy, a young girl whose parents have just died. Donna has superpowers and turns out to be part amazon. Diana lets her live on Themiscyra but it turns out that Donna is a sleeper agent of Circe. It turns out that many years ago, Circe cut off a strand of hair from Diana when she was just a kid and used it to make Donna. They fight, Donna gets her mind back and hates that someone used her like a puppet. In the end she and Diana fight Circe.

Aquaman 4 Orm returns and is now allied with Starro the conqueror, a creature that looks like a giant starfish that uses tiny copies of itself that can latch on to other beings and control them.

Justice League 6 Adaptation of Crisis on Infinite Earths. (We get to revisit the Ultraman universe and the Darkseid won universe.) Guy Gardner gives the green lantern ring back to Hal Jordan (He doesn`t need it, he still has his own yellow lantern ring.) because they need all the heroes they can get.

You may have noticed that I haven`t come up with many Batman movies, there`s only 3 of them if you count Batman V Superman. That is because there have been so many Batman movies over the years, it`s like he`s almost the only character from DC Comics that Warner Bros are not afraid to make movies about. As if they don`know about any other characters. So I felt that the dark Knight could step aside so that some the other heroes got a chance to shine. There would still be plenty of room for the caped crusader though, he would appear in all the Justice League movie and have cameos in several of the other characters`movies, kinda like MCU`s Nick Fury.

So anyway, those are my ideas for a DCEU that could have been. Originally I was gonna stop at phase 3 because I think that a big superhero cinematic universe should eventually stop and not go on forever. Kind of like, quit while you`re ahead. I know, not a very capitalist way of thinking. But then I started thinking about how the other characters hadn`t gotten their movie trilogies, how some elements felt like they were left dangling, untapped potential and how writing these little essays is a fun excercise in creativity. And hearing about James Gunn`s plans for a more organized DC movie universe also contributed in reigniting my interest for more stories in this universe that never happened. After making these movies I would step down as the creative producer guy (or whatever the title is), in this alternate universe where I got to be the Kevin Fiege of the DCEU, and let someone else take over.

But it may be possible that I come back some day in the future and say "Hey, you guys! I`ve come up with some ideas for phase 7 to 9 in my own version of the DCEU!" since my decision to stop after phase 3 didn`t last.

Oh well, with all that said, I look forward to see what James Gunn has in store for us. ------------------------------------------------------ Written stuff: 50

Started writing this: 2023-03-11

Other movies on my Constructive Criticism list that you can look forward to

Burton`s Batman Schumacher`s Batman Supergirl (1984) Jonah Hex (2010) Dragonball evolution The Spirit (2008) The Dark Knight trilogy

And as usual: English is not my first language, so if my writing doesn`t seem to flow naturally, you know why.

Hi 👋

If your still taking requests, can I ask you to write an Kisaki tetta smut where both the reader and kisaki hate each other but secretly like each and the readers is the reason kisaki isn't a heartless monster anymore. If you don't write for kisaki I totally understand and I'll ask for an dom Levi punishing reader for getter too buddy buddy with hange.

wordcount: 3.1k (i may have gotten carried away)

content: CEO!kisaki, executive assistant fem!reader, you see that big window… guess what we’re doing with that, lots of swearing, degradation, praise, fingering, oral (giving), gaslighting??, reader gets bent over the desk, choking, love hate relationship, corporate power dynamic (but you knew that), implication of death and one mention of a gun, hanma makes a cameo, kisaki being a big softie

— synopsis: kisaki is getting soft, too soft. and there’s only one person to blame for that.

note from pooh: BABY GIRL, of course i can write for Kisaki, i’ve actually got a collab lined up for him which i’m excited for. YOU actually changed my mind about this man, i’m slowly being converted. i’ll be honest you gave me too much creative freedom and i went a little wild with it. i’m hoping it lived up to your expectations because it was fun to write this dynamic. also i’m so sorry this took so long, i’ve been so busy personally and with the deadline for SYLM 2 it’s been a whole mess. P.S since you’re a returning req asker i gave you both (they're unedited for now but i will get on that in the morning). SURPRISE thank you for all the support ♡

WARNING: this is smut, so please ensure you have your age visible on your account before interacting. Minors (below 18+), ageless and blank blogs will be BLOCKED

Hope you enjoy ♡ reblogs are greatly appreciated

You did this.

Kisaki’s hand shook as he held the gun, the pleading cries from the man he aimed it at sinking deeper and deeper into his heart. This feeling was forgein to him. Hesitation, guilt, regret. All emotions he’d thought were burned away a long time ago, not having time for pointless feelings in matters that required unquestioned brutality.

He was getting soft and it was all your fault.

“Shuji.” The man in question rises from his seat in the corner of the room, a deadpan expression on his features. “Take care of this for me. There’s something I need to do.” The gun drops onto the larger man’s hand before Kisaki is pulling on his suit jacket, hearing a resounding bang as he steps through the basement door.

Fury and frustration floods his veins whilst entering the elevator, thumbing the floor he knew your office was on. The numbers increased frustratingly slow, consumed by a silence within the confined space that drove his jaw to tighten.

As the ding chimed he strode through the empty corridor, ignoring the curious eyes that followed him through the windows of meeting rooms and private offices. Your frosted glass door was forced open as he burst into the room, meeting your confused and irritated gaze that shifted from the client in front of you.

“Can I help you, Kisaki?”

He fixes his glasses calmly, stoic expression set on his features. “Get out.” The demand was aimed at your boyish client sitting stunned in their chair.

The sheepish man stares at him, bewildered. Eying you desperately, only to find your attention occupied with the blonde haired man. Kisaki kissed his teeth, he wasn’t one to repeat himself twice.

“What are you looking at her for? Are you deaf?” He bites, clicking his fingers to get his attention. “I said get the fuck out!”

With a jump your client quickly collects their things and shuffles out the door, keeping their head down the whole way till the glass clicks shut.

“What do you want?” You voice bluntly, tapping away at your laptop, not even bothering to meet his gaze.

“You’ve got some nerve.” Kisaki grits.

A curious brow was all you gave him. “What is it this time?”

His jaw tenses as you continue to ignore him, the incessant tapping of the keys driving him up the fucking wall. When you hit a key particularly loud he slams the laptop shut, almost crushing your fingers in the process.

“What have you done to me?” He questions with a serious expression while looking you in the eye.

“I beg your pardon?” The incredulous look you throw him only fuels the fire raging at his core. You were playing dumb and he had no time for your games.

“I’m not going to repeat myself again, y/n. So I suggest you answer the question.”

You hide a faint smile behind a dainty manicured hand, the same manicure he paid for. “I only do what you ask of me Tetta. So excuse me for not fully understanding your question.”

“You think this is funny?” He growls, wrapping a hand round your throat. Wiping that frustratingly alluring smile off your face. “You’ve made me weak and you think that’s funny?”

“How have I-?” You try to protest but your words are cut short as his fingers tighten around your windpipe, just enough so you could still breathe.

“Get up.” You’re guided by his strong hand to your feet, almost stumbling in your heels at the haphazardness of his grip. He walks you backward till your back hits the window wall with a soft thud, the sound making your heart pulse quicker under Kisaki‘s fingertips.

“Kisaki…” You manage against his hold, whimpering out an incoherent cry as he eyed you with mild amusement.

“You still think this is funny?” His head tilts slightly, a smirk growing on his lips.

You shake your head fervently, your smaller hands clasping around his wrist. “No… I’m sorry.”

“Good.” He captures your lips in a rough and sloppy kiss, grip around your throat loosening to pull you into him by the back of your neck.

Your lips were soft, tongue holding the flavour of strawberries as he slipped his own past your lips. His hands anchor themselves in the soft flesh of your ass, squeezing roughly till you gasp. The reaction only made him delve deeper. He could get lost in you all too quickly, from your breath to the way your nails dug into his shoulders. Fuck, it was so hard to stay mad at you. The faces you made didn’t help either. Staring at him with those doe-like eyes of yours, dazed and pleading.

“‘Saki, we can’t do this here… what if someone walks in on u- fuck!” A surprised moan interrupts your words as he runs his fingers along your unsurprisingly unclothed slit. He didn’t think you’d actually listen when he told you to come to work without panties today. But here he stands corrected.

“You’ve been walking around in this tight-ass skirt the whole day like this?” Your shaky breath hits his lips as you nod, eye squeezing shut as he plays with your clit between his fingers. “Seeing clients with your pussy on display for everyone to see?”

“Yes.” You whine, thighs closing around his hand.

“So what the fuck makes you think I’m going to give a shit if someone walks in, when you’ve been fine with prancing around my building like this, huh?” The way you stutter on his fingers gives him more pleasure than he cared to admit, feeling your weak hand grip his forearm in a frail attempt to pull him away. But from the way your arousal was already coating his fingers he knew you didn’t want him to stop. No, not when he had you right where he wanted you.

“Kisaki, please. Fuck!” There it was, the begging. The desperation he sought after in your voice. He knew how to break you. Being so headstrong and stubborn in the day for the company and your colleagues, it made it all the more rewarding to see you crumble at just the flick of his wrist.

“Mm, what's wrong, sweetheart~?” He mocks, teasing the pads of his index and forefinger at your soaked entrance, thumb pressed harshly into your clit.

“Please, I can’t…”

“You can’t?” Your head leans into the glass window as his digits slip easily inside, reaching their hilt in no time as your pussy practically sucks them in. “Why don’t you try that again.” The spongy spot on the roof grazes his fingertips, he presses into it gradually and watches your composure unravel.

“Oh my- shit Tetta, don’t move your fingers like that.” He does it again out of spite, this time using the other hand to encircle your clit mercilessly, while he began pumping his fingers.

“I don’t think you’re in any position to be making demands here, y/n. Especially not after what you’ve done.” Your head rests on his shoulder, teeth and spit making a mess out of the cashmere suit jacket he’d just received from the dry cleaners. Not that he minded when it came to you, it would just be another reminder of the time you spent together.

“But I didn’t… I didn’t do anything.” Your heated breath at the base of his neck elicits a surge of goosebumps across his skin. The additional spark running down the centre of his spine makes his cock twitch in his pants, straining against the material as you continue. “What have I done?” You whine in his ear, fingers tracing the waistband of his slacks.

“You, my dear, have turned me soft.” He admits with a soft groan, resolve loosening with the tantalising graze of your fingertips.

Your low airy chuckle makes his heart pound, the soft sound mixing with the heavy laboured breaths he continued to draw from you. “You don’t seem very soft to me.” He fights a moan as your hand cups him through his pants, fingers moving ever so slightly to add pressure.

“Mm,” he picks up the pace at your core, focusing on your g-spot and synching the movements at your clit in time with each press. “You’re a comedian today aren’t you?”

If he wasn’t pinning you to the window he was sure you’d already be on the floor with the way your thighs were shaking and squeezing around him. Hell, you’d practically put all your weight on him at this point. Your pussy held him in a vice grip of its own, walls growing tighter and tighter with each circle of his middle finger. The intensity invited your fingers to curl into the black belt at his waist, your manicured nails no doubt leaving crescent shaped imprints in the leather.

“‘Saki, fuck. Kisaki, I can’t… I’m gonna-”

“Uh-uh.” He grunts. “You really think you deserve to cum just like that?” He withdraws from you entirely and suddenly all at once, slipping free from your feeble grasp you’d still managed to maintain up till now. “This is a punishment after all.”

He was well aware you despised any form of punishment, he was probably to blame for that after spoiling you for as long as he has. Your whines fell on deaf ears, cries ignored while you leant on him, breathing erratic and shallow. No he couldn’t let you have it just yet, he needed to get his point across first.

“On your knees.” Slowly you slide your way down the glass at your back, falling to your knees softly as he so graciously guided you by your forearms. Not wanting you to hurt yourself on your descent.

As you looked up at him with a hazy glare he couldn’t help the smile that overcame his lips. Your blouse ruffled and untucked, skirt creased and bunched at your upper thigh, drool drying at the corner of your mouth, slightly ajar with ragged breaths. It was a sight reserved for him and him alone.

His hand cups your face tenderly, running his thumb over your pillowy bottom lip. “Take it out, y/n.” As if awaiting his instruction your hands immediately start on his belt, slipping the leather out of the buckle and letting it hang loose at his waist. His buttons and zipper followed, his slacks soon pooling at his feet as you kitten-licked his hard on through his briefs. Kisaki chuckles at your brazen attempt at teasing, his ringed fingers lacing themselves in your hair. “Be good and I’ll give you what you want.”

He witnesses the spark in your eyes as the words leave his mouth, the haze being replaced with a lustful determination he knew very well. You pull the front of his underwear down to let his cock spring free and tap against his dress shirt, pulling it down the rest of the way to let it sit mid thigh.

The look in your eye is challenging when you take him in your mouth for the first time, tongue out and gaze locked with his. You take him deep, so deep that you can swipe your tongue where his shaft meets his balls effortlessly, a trick he was still figuring out as to where you’d learnt it from. You gag, letting your saliva cover his cock, enough for your hand and mouth to move in a seamless tandem.

He bunches your hair into a messy ponytail, wrapping it around his fist as you bobbed. His hand moved in time with your head, his own lulling back as your tongue continuously circled his tip and your hand stroked the shaft in a steady twisting motion. You were relentless, chasing the reward he offered you without any disregard as spit covered your chin, pace increasing gradually.

The moments you took him deep into your throat he could’ve sworn he saw stars, the tight muscle flexing as you gagged every time, taking a deep inhalation of air as you retreated before going back. His hand wrapped around your hair guided you in further, making your nails dig into his hips as he held you there for as long as you let him. With the way his hips were jutting into your mouth he knew he wouldn’t last long and when your hand tightened around him just that bit more he drew you to a halt, thrusting his cock deep, pressing the back of your head against the glass and painting your throat with his cum.

Each swallow you took milked him more until he unravelled your hair from his fist, letting you sit back on your heels. He watched you continue to stroke him through heavy lids, lapping away any residual cum you were able to draw out, in doing so you made his legs tremble, driving him straight into overstimulation.

“Fuck, y/n stop.” He hissed, cursing the way your lips curled into a smirk at his plea. “Are you proud of yourself?”

“I can make the CEO Kisaki Tetta tremble, of course I’m proud.” You lick a long stripe along his tip as you speak, making him bite his lip.

“Enough.” He snaps, dragging you to his level by your jaw. “You’re a brat, you know that right.”

“Yeah, but that’s what makes it fun.” You chime, batting your lashes innocently as you rebalance yourself to adjust your skirt.

He catches your hands as you try to re-tuck your blouse, eyeing you with a mockingly sympathetic look. “What are you doing? We made a deal didn’t we?” You lick your lips in anticipation, eyes lighting up at the realisation. “Bend over the desk, skirt up.”

You didn’t need to be asked twice. Sauntering your way to the mahogany table, cluttered with files and paperwork that you’d been drowning in the past few days. Finding a relatively clean area you lean on your forearms, pulling your skirt up past your thighs, exposing yourself fully for him. He drinks you up as if it was the first time he’s seen you like this, ass high and ready, truth be told he never got tired of seeing you naked, no matter how many times he’s had you under him.

He steps out of his slacks to approach you, fingers kneading the flesh of your ass, spreading you nicely. Your pussy glistened and clenched around nothing in his mindless exploration, growing increasingly more enticing by the second.

“‘Saki~” You whine, hips wiggling in his grasp. “Stop teasing.”

“Patience, sweetheart. I’ll give it to you.” The pads of his fingers make quick work over his swollen tip, spreading the pooling residual cum before stroking his shaft leisurely. “Look at you, so needy, you’re practically dripping.” He slots himself between your slit, covering the head in your arousal that he could practically taste on his tongue. With a pause he gathers your skirt in a fist for future leverage. “Let’s let the whole office know who this pussy belongs to.”

With those final words he breaches your entrance, mouth agape as your plush walls welcomed him with open arms. Your gasp mimicked his, fingers tightening around the edge of dark wood while his hips clapped against yours with vigour.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck, ‘Saki!” You cry into the desk, hair partially fallen over your face from the force of his thrusts.

He chuckles maniacally as he pulls you back onto his cock with every stroke, driving himself deeper and deeper. His free hand slips between your thighs to rub your clit, the stimulation on the sensitive bud making your walls clench.

“That’s it, baby. Taking my cock so well. Creaming all over it like a good little slut.” He revels in your mewls of pleasure, reducing you to an incoherent mess of whimpers and moans. Your volume didn’t let up either, seemingly increasing the longer he nestled himself into that sweet spot he knew would turn you to putty in his hands. “Who makes you feel this good?” He continues, smacking your ass harshly.

“Kisaki!” Was all you could muster, mind clouded with lust and pleasure.

“Good girl. Who do you belong to?” His hips hit harder with each syllable, making sure to drive his point home.

“Tetta!”

“You wanna cum, baby?” You whine as he ups the pressure on your clit, hips halting as he grinds deep into your dripping cunt.

“Yes, please. Please, please let me cum ‘Saki!” Your thighs press together, constricting his cock further, drawing a deep growl from his throat. At this rate he wasn’t going to last long either, pushing through the oversensitivity becoming a greater feat. The edge was near and you were dragging him off the precipice with you at full speed.

“Cum for me, y/n.” With one last circle of his fingers your walls lock him in place as you cum, borderline screaming only to muffle it with your hand. As you fall off that ledge of euphoria so does he, a white wash of silken cum marking your gummy insides as his completely.

He stops himself from collapsing on you entirely, resting his free palm on the desk beside your waist, out of breath, hair in disarray and glasses partially fogged from the heat radiating from his skin. You lay in the same shape, chest rising and falling rapidly, legs about to give out from under you if not for Kisaki’s hand still between your thighs.

“What the hell am I going to do with you?” He huffs, withdrawing from your pulsing pussy to tuck himself back in his briefs.

You sigh at the emptiness, legs finally failing you as you crumple to the floor in a tired sweaty mess. A thick glob of Kisaki’s cum spills from your hole, forming a pool on your skirt that laid ruffled halfway down your ass.

You muster a chuckle at his question, combing shaky fingers through your ruined hair. “What do you mean?”

He joins you on the floor, resting against the side of the desk with an exhausted breath. Instinctively you cuddle into his side, laying your head on his shoulder. “See this is what I’m talking about when I said you’re making me soft.” You both laugh, reflecting on the situation at hand.

“You make it sound like it’s such a bad thing. You can’t be a heartless monster all your life.” He looks down at you with a soft smile, love and adoration filling his chest. That was something he had yet to actually admit to you, that he was in love. Working with you so closely, getting to see you at your most vulnerable, those were moments he cherished greatly.

With a kiss on your forehead he sighs, shaking his head. “In my line of work, sweetheart, there’s no room for feelings.”

Levi's Valentine master list | Frequently used terms | Part Two

[2009, September]

Levi first saw you when you both were 17.

He was at his desk by the left corner of the classroom gazing out of the window when the Homeroom teacher came into class with another female student next to him. Everyone in class quietened down while he cleared his throat. Levi was still staring out of the window paying no attention to whatever that was happening.

“We have a new transfer student with us, Miss (y/n) (l/n),” Pixis Sensei signalled to you. Most of the guys started whispering, surprised that a student would transfer during September when the new semester already began. Furthermore, everyone was already in their second year of senior high school.

“Pleased to meet you, I am (y/n) (l/n). I transferred in due to my father’s work and I am very happy to be in this class with all of you! I hope to be friends with everyone!”

“Oh my god, she’s so cute, look at her smile.”

“She’s so pretty! I wonder what brand of shampoo she uses?”

“Do you think she’ll sit next to me?”

Levi was watching a bird fly across the sky when the constant murmuring distracted him. Turning around, Levi was momentarily stunned when he saw you. The first thing he noticed was how your face was beaming while you introduced yourself to the class, the way your eyes turned into little crescents when you smiled. Secondly, he noticed how beautiful your hair was, and how soothing your voice sounded. It brought him a sense of calmness, like the gentle flowing of leaves under the light spring breeze. Levi also realised how high your cheekbones were when you smiled at the others, eyes lighting up as you glanced across the room.

She’s cute, he thought to himself, not realising how his cheeks were the same shade as cherry blossoms in spring.

“You can take the empty seat next to Mr Ackerman at the back,” Pixis Sensei gestured to a black-haired boy at the back of the class. Some of the guys sigh dejectedly while the girls turn their eyes to Levi’s direction. As you glanced around, you locked eyes with the black-haired boy and you smiled, making your way to the desk adjacent to his. Levi realised you were getting closer and quickly pretended to look out of the window again.

“Hi, I’m y/n,” you waved and said hi, despite his lack of enthusiasm. He shot you a glance and took out his History textbook, getting ready for class. “L-Levi,” he muttered, unable to look you in the eye. He’s cute, you thought to yourself, taking your seat.

She's really cute, Levi thought to himself once more, feeling his heartbeat quiver in his chest. Burying himself nose-deep into his History textbook, Levi tried his best to stop himself from looking at you, willing himself to focus on the content in his textbook and not how sweet your voice sounded. Levi forced himself to read the textbook and not get intoxicated by your scent. He only responded to you when necessary, unwilling to even say more words.

The first few lessons of the day was torture. You did not have most of the textbooks required yet, and you had to share a textbook with Levi. Joining both your tables together, Levi’s heart thumped wildly in his chest as you sat next to him, your voice a soft melody next to his ear, your scent a breath of fresh air. Levi wondered why he was feeling like this; his stomach so queasy as though he was about to throw up, his heart beating so quickly like he just ran a hundred laps around the stadium. Levi was glad his name wasn’t called out during class, because he was sure he would have become a stuttering mess and lost his composure, something that rarely ever happens. He didn’t particularly enjoy this weird sensation he was feeling every time you were around him. He felt uneasy, yet he couldn’t help but occasionally steal glances as you.

As the bell rang for lunch at 12:30 pm, Levi quickly took his bento box to the opposite side of the classroom, turning a chair to face a tall boy with blonde hair and bright blue eyes.

“That’s quick of you, Levi,” Erwin Smith, one of Levi’s best friends, looked puzzled as he opened his bento box, pleased with his lunch. Erwin’s mother made him a yummy omurice with some karaage on the side. There was also a small serving of salad and fruits. Levi opened his and sighed: a plain saba fish with rice, and that’s it. Not even any pickled radish. Levi sulked and started eating his lunch.

“Hey, Levi, you sure you wanna let the new girl eat alone?” Another one of Levi’s best friends, Mike Zacharias, joined them. Mike was even taller than Erwin was, and he had a calm, relaxed expression. Levi choked on his rice and coughed out loud. “S-she’s old enough to find her own friends,” Levi muttered after clearing his throat, wondering why he jumped at the thought of you. Sure enough, Levi saw you joining Petra Ral and Nanaba for lunch. Of all the people you could have joined, you got stuck with the gossip queen. Levi rolled his eyes and hoped you found Petra annoying.

The remaining class periods progressed without any mishaps. Levi had to share his History textbook with you during the lesson and you both joined your desks together again. You tried to start small conversations with your new classmate, but he seemed to always avoid you. Maybe he didn’t like strangers, you thought to yourself, and you stopped asking Levi questions. Although Levi was momentarily glad you stopped talking to him, he wished you continued speaking to him instead. He barely even knew you, yet he felt like he was addicted to hearing your voice. He felt lonely from the silence, and wordlessly tried to pay attention in class.

As classes ended at 3:30 pm, Levi quickly packed up his things and zoomed out of the class, bidding farewell to Erwin and Mike. He quickly made his way to the dōjō for his Kendo club activities. Entering the dōjō, Levi was about to put down his bag and change to his kendogi when another surprise hit him.

“Ah, Ackerman! You’re here! Good. We have a new transfer student and I want you to train her,” One of the seniors quickly gestured for Levi to join them, making him meet your acquaintance again.

“Hey, aren’t you Levi?” You beamed when you saw a familiar face. “Uh, y-yeah. Hi, er—”

“Y/n. My name’s y/n.” You chuckled, reaching your hand out to Levi. Levi gingerly took your hand and shook it, hastily dropping your hand as though he’d been shocked.

“L/n said she was also in a Kendo club in her previous school, and since you two are classmates, I’m sure you’re the best person to partner with her.” The senior smiled before patting Levi’s arm, going off to supervise the other pairs.

“So, here we meet again.” You flashed a smile towards Levi, preparing to do your warm up exercises. Levi merely nodded, unable to formulate any words. The warm ups were usually not enough to keep Levi’s pumping and ready for training, but for some reason, standing next to you seemed to always make him feel like his heart was skipping beats, like he was always feeling breathless and he needed you to be around in order to breathe. His stomach churned again when he saw you looking at him.

Once the warm ups were over, everyone was divided into pairs and told to practice their moves. Turning to face you, Levi felt his breath get stuck in his throat again. You were staring at his face, eyes unblinking and your mouth forming a small ‘o’. Levi wondered why you were staring at him, and he wondered if his face was dirty.

“Your eyes are a really unique hue of grey, Levi,” you said after looking at Levi for a long while. They were a beautiful light grey, a grey that looked a little blue when the light hit him at a different angle. A grey that looked darker when he was in the shade. “Your eyes look so sad but they’re beautiful.” You stepped closer to Levi, inching your face closer to him and smiled.

“I like your eyes.”

Levi felt his entire body freeze when he heard you. You were too close for comfort, you were invading his personal space. He could faintly smell the flowery scent of your hair, and feel the heat from your breath.

“Uh, t-thanks…” Levi barely managed to say out without choking on his own words. He knew people were always bedazzled by his eyes. Everyone praised his eyes so often that he was finding it weary. But to hear the exact same praises from your lips lit a small flame in his heart instead. It made his knees go weak and his heartbeat erratic. Hearing Levi’s reply, you gave him another smile and urged him to begin practising with you. As you stepped away from him, Levi let out a breath he didn’t know he was holding.

Today was going to be a long day.

»»————-　♡　————-««

The next day, Levi reached the class together with Erwin and Mike. Walking to his seat, his heart did a leap when he saw you already seated there reading a book. You were deep in focus and there was a little crease between your eyebrows. Levi suddenly had the urge to smoothen out the lines on your forehead.

“Hey, you're the new girl, y/n right?” Mike walked to your seat with Erwin, Levi standing behind them both. You looked up from your book.

“Yes! That's me. I'm y/n. Sorry, but I'm a little bad at names. You are…”

“I'm Mike. And this is Erwin.” Mike gestured to himself and Erwin who waved at you.

“Oh, are you two friends of Levi's? I think I recall you eating together during lunch yesterday.” You looked around the class. “Where's Levi? He’s not with you two?” Erwin chuckled after seeing your reaction.

“You say you’re bad with names but here you are calling for Levi so comfortably.” You felt your cheeks heat up and you tried to think of a reply. Just then, Levi appeared from behind Mike.

“Ah! Levi! You’re here,” you called out to him, watching Levi as he made his way to his chair. Levi heard your enthusiasm and unknowingly felt the need to be more energetic too. He was never a morning person, and definitely not someone who enjoys chatting in the morning. However, instead of chasing you away or ignoring you like yesterday, Levi found himself paying attention to what you were saying.

You went to talk to Levi, asking him when the next kendo practice was, and if you could partner him again. You were unusually chatty today and Levi wasn’t used to it. Mike and Erwin did talk a lot, but they weren’t endlessly going on and on like you. However, hearing your voice early in the morning made Levi feel as though he was getting a big boost of energy. Levi couldn’t help but smile along with you as he tried to converse with you. Erwin and Mike exchanged looks of confusion before smiling at one another.

“Looks like the new girl managed to defrost our cool guy,” Mike chuckled.

“Who’s defrosting who?” Another voice entered the conversation. “Hange, you’re late today.” Erwin looked at the clock on the wall.

“My locker was stuck,” Hange stood in between Mike and Erwin. “Who are you two talking about?” Mike pointed to you and Levi who were chatting in front of them, oblivious to your surroundings.

“Oh, the new girl! Hi! I’m Hange Zoe, and I’ve been friends with these three idiots since we were 13!” Hange bellowed and you looked up. Hange had dark brown hair tied into a high ponytail and their eyes were a really warm shade of light brown. You smiled and introduced yourself to Hange. Hange asked you to join them for lunch today and you immediately agreed, happy that you managed to find a group of friends to fit in so quickly. Furthermore, Mike and Erwin seemed really nice too, and most importantly, you were excited to get to know Levi better.

Levi wasn’t sure why he felt delighted when Hange invited you to join them for lunch. Just 24 hours ago he was a blushing mess in front of you, feeling like someone reached their hand into his stomach and twisted his guts. Now, he found himself watching you wherever you went, he found himself enjoying your company. It was like he was a moth drawn to a flame, and Levi was drawn to your voice and your presence.

Levi wondered what was wrong with him.

»»————-　♡　————-««

“Ah, you must be y/n-chan!” You heard someone calling out to you while you were making your way to class. Turning around you were met with three unfamiliar faces. The one standing on the left looked slender and had a sleek back comb. The one on the right was rather tall with broad shoulders and had short blonde hair.

The one in the middle who was speaking to you caught your eye. He was likewise tall and had a head of shaggy platinum blonde hair, and he had wide grey eyes. You noticed they were grey like Levi's, but not quite the same. Where Levi's eyes always looked sombre, this boy's eyes had a mischievous glint to them.

“And you are?” You asked politely. You were only one week into your new school and you definitely didn't want to offend anyone.

“My, my, how rude of me to not introduce myself. I'm Zeke. Zeke Jaeger. This is Porco,” the boy named Zeke gestured to the guy on the left. “And this is Reiner.” The one on the right gave you a small smile.

“We're from the class next door, and we’re the cooler and fun ones. And if you’re bored and wanna have some fun,” Zeke gave you a wink out of nowhere and you stared at him feeling slightly embarrassed. “You know who to find.”

You stood there awkwardly, unsure of how to react. Blinking a few times, you tried to think of a nice answer to reply to Zeke.

“Uhh—”

“Fuck off, blonde shit,” you heard Levi's voice coming from behind you. Levi scowled as he approached Zeke. Levi was a lot shorter than Zeke, but his aura definitely made up for the lack in height. Levi looked menacing, and even Zeke looked a little afraid.

“Go hit on girls from your class, like Finger, or Dreyse. Don't fucking bother people from my class.” Levi grabbed your arm and pulled you into your classroom while you let yourself be dragged by Levi, your mind still processing what happened. Reaching your seat, Levi let go of your arm. You winced when Levi let you go, realising your arm hurt because Levi grabbed you too hard.

“Stay away from that idiot,” Levi warned you as he went to his seat. Levi’s mood seemed foul and he continued frowning towards the door, as though making sure Zeke didn't come back.

“He seemed friendly though—” “I said, stay away from him.” Levi looked straight at you, not listening to whatever you just said. Turning back to his desk, Levi took out his mathematics textbook and started reading. Breathing deeply, Levi wondered why he was getting so worked up when he saw Zeke talking to you. Was he jealous? Overprotective? Or maybe because you looked like you needed help? Zeke is scum, of course I don’t want her going near him. Zeke is scum. Zeke is an ass. Zeke is scum. Levi kept repeating in his head like a prayer mantra, convincing himself that he got angry because he hated Zeke, and not because he felt protective of you.

While Levi’s eyes were on his textbook, you gazed at him, massaging your arm. It was the first time you saw Levi angry. For some reason, you felt grateful Levi came to your aid. You would have continued talking to Zeke if Levi hadn’t interrupted. You would have found yourself in a conversation you didn’t want to be in if Levi didn’t pull you away. It may have been a fragment of your imagination, but during that fleeting moment, you felt like Levi was being protective of you, and you felt a little warmth bloom in your chest, a small smile appearing on your face.

[2009, October]

As the bell rang, you quickly told Hange that you would be eating elsewhere today, and ran out of the class. Hange wanted to stop you but you zoomed out of sight. You quickly ran to the school field when you heard lots of cheering from the adjacent side. You looked around before deciding to climb up the tallest tree you think you found, hoping you were just in time.

Unbeknown to others, your younger brother actually studied at the junior high school next door. Today happened to be their sports day, and you promised to watch your brother while he was competing.

Just in time, you thought as you hastily climbed up a tree, seeing your brother and his classmates playing a game of football. Watching them with the ball in their court, you cheered excitedly as your brother scored a goal.

Levi was making his way back to the class from the library when he thought he saw a figure up in the tree. Walking closer, Levi was astounded to see you instead. He stared at you for a few seconds before looking at the school next door.

“Oi, what are you doing?” Levi called out. You jumped, worried it was a teacher. Realising it was Levi, you heaved a sigh of relief.

“Ah, Levi! Hehe, it's nothing. I'm just watching my brother play football,” you happily pointed to the field opposite and Levi’s eyes followed wherever you were pointing.

“Didn’t know you had a brother,” Levi looked back up at you again, wondering how you managed to climb up such a tall tree. Levi was wondering if he should stay with you or go back to class. Lunch was ending soon and the way back to the classroom was quite a distance.

“Well, no one asked, so I didn’t tell anyone,” you squinted, trying to find your brother among the crowd again.

“Have fun then, be back before lunch ends.” Levi waved to you before taking a few steps forward, deciding he shouldn’t disturb you while you were watching your younger brother. As much as he wanted to stay with you, Levi didn’t want to be late for class.

“Hey, Levi. Levi! Wait, don’t—aaahhh!” You saw Levi walking away and you wanted to tell him to wait for you. However, you accidentally loosened your grip on the tree branch and lost your balance instead. Closing your eyes, you braced yourself for the hard impact you were about to face when it surprisingly didn’t come. Instead…

Your hands landed on something sturdy but warm. It didn’t feel like the warm earth under the afternoon sun, but more like the warmth radiating from someone. Your body landed on something hard but it didn’t feel like the hardness of the school grounds, it felt more like someone’s body instead. Your eyes remain closed until you feel something hot against your cheek.

You gradually opened your eyes and you felt your heart nearly leap out of your chest. Levi was looking at you, your faces barely an inch apart. His lips were slightly parted, his cheeks were a light shade of pink. Levi’s eyes were on your lips and he gulped nervously, quickly glancing up towards you before sucking in his breath sharply.

Levi realised you were looking straight at him as well.

Your eyes were wide and your expression stunned, your hands still clutching tightly on his uniform top. You looked into Levi's eye and noticed he was looking at your lips. Heat creeped up your face when you realised it. Levi… is he interested in me...? You think to yourself. Levi's hold on your waist tightens, until he realised how compromising your position was.

"Y-you okay...?" He stuttered, eyes darting between your eyes and your lips. Levi couldn’t help notice how you were staring intensely at him, and how close your face was. Levi prayed with all his might that you couldn’t hear the loud thumping of his chest, or see the uneasiness in his face.

“Y-y-yeah, I’m fine,” your voice came out barely louder than a whisper. Levi’s hold on you was comforting, almost endearing. The both of you remained in that position staring at each other until you realised you were on top of Levi.

“Oh my gosh, Levi, are you hurt?” You asked him, a look of shock on your face. It must have hurt when Levi crashed on the ground with your weight. Levi didn’t even realise it until you asked him. His back did feel a little sore.

“N-nope, I’m fine.” Levi turned his neck, glad he could still move. Levi continued staring at you, finding himself leaning closer to you. You held your breath and felt your heart beating faster and faster. Is he going to kiss me? You closed your eyes in anticipation, unsure of what was going to happen. Levi inched himself closer to your face, until he gently blew against your fringe, sweeping some leaves out of your hair. You opened your eyes again, unsure of where to look because Levi’s face was terribly close to yours, his lips inches away from yours.

Levi could feel the closeness of your breath on him and he unknowingly gulped nervously. Levi didn’t dare move. He had a sudden urge to just inch forward slightly to press his lips on yours. Instead, the both of you remained where you were, until the school bell started ringing in the distance, snapping you two back to reality. You jumped off Levi while Levi pushed himself upright, quickly offering you his hand to help you up. Brushing the grass out of your uniforms, Levi grabbed your arm and the both of you dashed back to the classroom as fast as you can.

“Why are you two together?” Hange questioned as soon as the both of you returned to class. “And why are you two so sweaty?”

“Shut up, Hange,” Levi rolled his eyes, gulping down an entire bottle of water while you fanned your face. Levi secretly offered you his handkerchief, making sure Hange wasn’t watching. Levi wanted to slap himself. Why did he tighten his hold on you earlier? Why didn’t he tell you to move? Why did he already crave the closeness of your body on his? Why did he have the thought of landing his lips on yours? Levi scratched his head in frustration, unsure of what was going on with him.

Wiping your face with Levi’s handkerchief, you could still feel Levi’s hold on your waist earlier and the heat of his breath on your face. You touched your cheeks, unsure if you were feeling warm because of the heat or from the running. Or perhaps, it was from the realisation that maybe, you and Levi could be something more. You shook your head. It can’t be. Levi doesn’t like me. He doesn’t like me that way. You tried convincing yourself as your lesson continued. Yet, you couldn’t help but feel Levi’s eyes on you the entire time.
