The boys love April Fool's.

Whenever they are able to spend the day on base, an all out war breaks out.

Price will only do something small yet incredibly irritating to Simon. Only Simon.

Such as taking all of the skull masks and balaclavas he has and leaving only the plain black ones. Annoying, but not a hindrance. Or one year, Price switched out Ghost's sugar for his tea with a different kind of sugar. Ghost, with a surprisingly strong sense of taste, noticed the change immediately, but continued to down the rest of his tea out of spite when he made eye contact with the captain. Another time, Price had carefully taken one sock from every match, forcing Ghost to wear mismatched socks. Did it piss him off? Yes. Was it dangerous? No, actually, because all Ghost did was take his hats and hide them for a few days.

He's learned Gaz is extremely petty and will accomplish things he didn't think were possible. It scares Price, the things Gaz gets away with. He knows the sergeant uses those good looks of his, but he's also now confident the man isn't above committing war crimes for revenge.

He knows Soap lacks restraint when it comes to pranks, and after last year's... mishap... he's not willing to face that again. He can sometimes smell the burning hair when he's been up for too long.

But Simon is such an easy target, and his retaliations are just and equal to the crime.

The real reason Simon is so laidback when it comes to April Fool's pranks between the members of the 141 is rather simple, and sad. He's never felt such camaraderie before, and he loves feeling like he's finally at home. He doesn't mind getting roped into the shenanigans because he knows it's a sign of love and trust, especially from Price and Soap. He also knows Gaz hardly ever messes with him these days, as one year he heard the sergeant muttering "you're no fun" when Ghost simply laughed off the elaborate trap Gaz had set for him.

Soap's large family had traditions when it came to April Fool's Day. They were always harmless, or at least that's what he and his siblings led their parents to believe. They had the quiet agreement that anything goes so long as Mom and Dad stay clueless about their little war.

In other words, Soap never learned limits in a prank war, and combine his intelligence with his penchant for chaos, and something is bound to explode by the end of the day.

Gaz is just... petty. And not like a little, or harmfully. Just... like the one year he didn't like when Nik jokingly gifted him a trophy that said "Worst Passenger Ever" after his fifth fall from some type of aircraft. So, in retaliation, he bought a sticker book of over a thousand stickers and hid them all over the inside of Nik's beloved helicopter. Everyone is still too afraid to ask Gaz how he managed to have so much time alone with the copter and not get caught.

The only time Price ever pranked Gaz for April Fool's was the first April Fool's the boys were having as a team. Price had simply taken all of the chargers and taken all of the batteries out of Gaz's battery-powered clocks, which resulted in Gaz waking up to an unknown time. He spent the better half of the day in a foul mood (he asked Soap to fix his watch, which wasn't a good idea and he should have known).

As revenge, he pulled the classic "move everything in Price's office over by an inch." And by everything, it was everything that had the ability to move over an inch. For stuff in his drawers that couldn't move? He switched them around. The bottom drawer no longer had extra office supplies, it was the important stuff that should have been in the top drawer. But the top drawer was something else, and Price spent about thirty minutes looking for a new pen before storming out of his office in a rage and marching down to Gaz's quarters.

Gaz agreed to put everything back if Price told him his birthday. The blackmailing was expert level, the captain had to admit.

What they hadn't expected was that this year, Price had an assistant.

No, not Nik.

Nik is banned from base on April Fool's Day after the one year he got involved.

No, what the boys hadn't expected was Bailey to offer her help. They hadn't expected the captain's sweet daughter to be so... bloodthirsty.

It was the only time she ever was excited to be back on base. She stayed hidden most of the day, carrying out her father's wishes from the smallest nooks and crannies.

They knew something was up after the first couple of harmless pranks. A water bottle disappearing from the bench mid workout. Things being moved around when their backs were turned. The sound of Price calling for them around the corner, only for him to not be there, and when they find him, he claims to have never called. At one point Soap was bombarded by a hailstorm of bouncy balls from unknown origin. All, and yes all, of Ghost's masks/balaclavas were missing. Not that he minded, he often went without it while on base, but it was still irritating. Gaz woke up with all of his clocks in his room, and came back to them all missing. Fun.

These were all things Price would do, or has done, so they hadn't thought much of it.

It was finally when they were all in Price's office that they realized he couldn't possibly be behind these. He was listening to them complain about the day so far, as he kept them all too busy to get at each other. As they complained, he quietly and calmly put everything on his desk away, leaving the top of the desk completely bare. None of them noticed, or if they did, they didn't care to comment, probably because of the casual confidence he did that with.

He watched with a straight face as a ceiling panel above them opened up. He couldn't stop the smile as a large bucket was tipped out of the opening, and cold water spilled out right on top of them. It was incredible, the screaming in unison as the water landed on Ghost's head and falling down onto the sergeants on either side of him.

Price claims his tears of laughter were actually from how beautiful the scene was. The boys were cursing up a storm, shaking off excess water like dogs and making rude finger gestures towards their captain. He was laughing so hard it sent him into a coughing fit, and the boys quickly realized they could hear laughter coming from the ceiling as well.

Gaz was the first to notice and look up at Price's little accomplice. She gave him a big grin, a little snort of laughter accompanying. Gaz just shook his head, shocked and also a bit disappointed. There's NO way he's ever going to get revenge on this trickster.

Ghost and Soap look up at the same time as Bailey snorts again, and they quickly drop any anger. Soap sticks his tongue out at her as Ghost glares at Price, who was still laughing. Ghost helps her down from the ceiling (after she accidentally dropped the plastic bucket onto Soap's head), and she goes bouncing over to her dad. They high five, both still chuckling, and her smile making her cheeks hurt.

As the three walked back to their respective quarters to change into dry clothes, their missing possessions safe in their arms, they couldn't help but laugh.

"She looked so devious, the little traitor." Gaz had said with a fond laugh.

"It was nice to hear her laughing that hard. Guess I'm okay with being the butt of the joke if it makes her happy." Ghost had added.

"Aye, a father has to bond with his kid somehow." Soap had said, and the conversation left at that.

Back in Price's office, Price sat with Bailey, a happy smile on both their faces as she called Nik to share what happened.

Yeah, she was starting to really like it here.

Ghost - “Looks worse than it feels.”

I may have cried while writing this...

Anyways, more of one of the boys on Bailey babysitting duty! Ghost bonding time because I need to heal her *insert image of young little baby Snoots here*

Simon found he enjoyed the time he got to spend with Bailey. She was incredibly smart, and he loved listening to her ramble about her latest learning experience, even if sometimes the subject matter went over his head. To him, it was fascinating, watching the gears turn in her head as her eyes shined with passion as she spoke. And when she got really excited, she would lean into her words, her hands gesturing with emphasis. There was so much innocence in her, so much gentleness and kindness, her heart so badly wounded yet not broken.

But there were still bad days.

Days where Simon's heart would break every time he saw her. Days where he would see ghosts of scrawny Riley boys, begging for scraps just to survive. There were days where she was so jumpy, her wide eyes filled with fear and uncertainty. She had so much left to learn, and her trust had been so badly damaged. There were days where Simon learned to broadcast his movements and intentions, and in Bailey's eyes were visions of his brother clinging to his side and looking at him for guidance. Looking to Simon for comfort, for some sign that it was gonna be okay. Days where Simon couldn't ignore the way all her clothes seemed to swallow her, how bony she still was and how small she seemed. So tiny against a scary world.

He had days where he couldn't look at her without feeling like he was looking in some funhouse mirror of his past.

Those days scared him the most.

This day, Simon felt off. He was extra antsy, despite how at ease Bailey seemed. She was in good spirits, happily watching the latest science documentary that sparked her interest. But for some reason, Simon couldn't sit still, couldn't shake the feeling there was some unseen threat.

And maybe he hated the way his heart sank when her pant leg lifted to revealed a nasty bruise.

"Oh, bug, what 'appened 'ere?" He asked, gently touching her knee so he can get a good look at the purple black bruise along her shin. Bailey looked down at it, shrugging her shoulders and lightly tracing a finger around the edges.

'Tripped the other day and slammed my shin against something. It looks awful, but I just bruise easy these days. Ya know, the anemia?" She responded calmly. Simon huffs and wraps his hand around her fingers as she tries to poke at the dark bruise. Worry creased his brow, and Bailey leaned against him as she noticed his concern.

"It looks worse than it feels, honest." She said, and Simon let out a soft breath, an echo of a voice no longer his own ringing in his ears at her words.

'I promise it doesn't 'urt that bad, Mum." His mother looked over at him, worry evident on her face and her eyes shone with unshed tears. She took a deep breath before setting down the wet rag she had been using to dab at his bleeding, swollen lip. Biting back tears, his mother wrapped her arms around his shoulders, holding his head close against her chest so he can listen to the strong beat of her heart.

Simon just frowned at her words, and settled on covering the bruise and trying to focus his attention back on the documentary. Bailey shifted, scooting closer to him and resting her head against his shoulder. Simon looked down at her, his heart hammering in his chest as his anxiety swelled.

She looked so tired and there was nothing he could do for her.

He felt so helpless.

"I'm fine, Simon, I promise." His mother lied, waving him off and trying to get him to go back to bed.

"You're crying in the bathroom again." He had simply stated, standing in the doorway looking almost lost. His mother sighed, sniffled and wiped her nose before she finally looked up at him. Her eyes were puffy and red, dark circles clinging to the edges. She was so tired, yet she still smiled at him. It was warm and comforting, yet barely masked her exhaustion.

There was nothing he could do.

"You know you remind me of someone." Simon mumbled, and Bailey looked up at him, pouting slightly with confusion.

"You remind me of my mum." Bailey's eyes lit up, and she sat up a bit to cock her head at Simon.

"Really?" She asked eagerly, and Simon couldn't help the soft smile that formed.

"Yeah. You seem really happy about that."

"Well, yeah. I mean, it's your mom. She made and raised you, so to be told I remind you of her is a big deal. It means a lot." Bailey replied honestly, her dark eyes earnest and burning into him. Simon let out a small laugh, looking away as he was suddenly overwhelmed with emotion.

"What exactly about me reminds you of her? I'm just curious." Bailey whispered, quietly sinking back into the couch as Simon thought.

"I wish I were half as strong as you, Simon." His mother whispered into his poorly trimmed hair. Simon pressed his face further into her chest, tears burning his eyes. He loved her, so much, and in his young mind, he couldn't think of any reason why his mum wouldn't believe she's twice as strong as him.

"Your strength. You and Mum have got to be the strongest people I've ever known." Simon answered, feeling almost short of breath as his throat constricted. He looked over at Bailey, only to be met with a frown. He could see the gears turning in her head, overworking the words. Tears formed in her eyes, and she sniffled a bit.

"But I'm really not." She whispered, and something snapped in Simon as he turned to face her. He put his hands on her shoulders, looking deep into her eyes as he tried to fight back the emotions bubbling up in his chest.

"I am going to tell you something I never got to tell Mum. Something I really wish I had told her, okay?" Bailey nodded earnestly, fingers nervously working the edge of the blanket.

"You are strong because you are here. You had every reason and every right to give up. To let the world take you. But you didn't let it. You kept fighting each day to make it to the next. You keep working hard to make progress even when it's incredibly difficult and you feel like all odds are against you. You are here, and your heart is still good. Still full of love despite every horror you've been put through. That is what makes you stronger than anyone else. That is why you are strong." His voice broke, giving way to the emotions he fought so hard to hold back. Bailey sniffled, quickly burying her face against his chest and wrapping her arms around him. He squeezed her tightly, resting his head against hers as he tried to even his breathing.

"Promise me you'll tell me when it does hurt?" The echo of his mother's voice rang through his, and Bailey nodded against him.

And when he closed his eyes tightly, just sitting and holding her, Simon swore he could feel his mum's arms wrapping around him once again.

Maybe, just maybe, she gave him some of her strength for a day like this.

Halloween '23 is here 👻

[ren-from-mars]

Sydney cast of ride the cyclone? On my blog? Yeah of course who the fuck do you take me for

If anyone is going to the evening show on the 12th I’ll be handing out a5 prints of this! And if you aren’t going to the show and are in the area, the show is running until the 22nd at Hayes Theatre!

[iasikaijutopia]

In-between watching s17 of cme, I'm going back to rewatch s16 just for Douglas Bailey. Yall don't understand how much I love and miss that man (I mean it's nicholas d'agosto so ofc) yeah he was annoying at the beginning but he grew on me. I hate that they killed him off in ep10 and honestly i don't think it was necessary.

Since Spencer Reid has been absent from the show, Bailey ended up being my new favourite and at this point I don't give a fuck whether reid comes back or not...I just want Bailey back SOMEHOW, just give me a flashback or SOMETHING! For the love of God...

Also the reid obsessed fans...SOME are insufferable, I'm sorry but you are. There are those that are ok people, you lot are fine. It's confirmed he's not in s17. Matthew will return when he returns, it's up to him. Get over it. Half the time when I check the comments on the criminal minds page, half the comments are filled with spencer reid related questions or whatever. He'll come back when he comes back, IF he comes back. Deal with it. There's still a possibility for s18 but I wouldn't hold your breath. And even if he does come back, the likelihood is that mgg will be in a max of maybe 5-6 episodes, minimum 3 as a guest star is my guess.

I'm missing Bailey more so, I just want him back at this point. I'll be happy if reid returns, he was my first favourite (he still kinda is but the some fans are driving me away from liking him tbh - it's the reid obsessed side of the fandom I don't like and it makes it difficult for me to still like the character if you get what I'm saying)

But honestly at this point...just get back nicholas d'agosto. I just want Bailey.
