Tagged by my dear friends/mutuals/incoherent scream sesh partners @twig-tea (here), @colourme-feral (here), @blmpff (here), @telomeke (here) and @waitmyturtles (here)

Current Time: nearly 5:00 PM

Current activity: Doomscrolling on social media (not recommended), writing this post (highly recommended, please interact on Tumblr, that's what makes this hellsite fun!)

Currently thinking about: Just watched the IFYLITA finale this morning with my bestie @lurkingshan, so my brain is currently ??????-ing all the different iterations of Yai we got to see (I like that Commander Yai looks more self-assured and confident than our widdle-20-something-lost-and-confused-baby Yai, but, DEAR LORD, The Mustache has to go. Just.. nope. Get that man a razor, STAT). Oh, and also, thinking about dinner.

Current favourite song: I recently watched Utsukushii Kare / My Beautiful Man (Season 1) a few days ago and I have the song from the opening credits stuck in my head on repeat: Caramel / カラメル by Mosawo / もさを。(Original MV with English captions)

(I'm also gonna link the Utsukushii Kare Lyric MV from MBS because I want Kiyoi's pretty face on my post)

I've also been feeling nostalgic lately and listening to some decade-old bangers from my teen years (ah time, thou art a cruel wench)

Patakha Guddi lyrics, translated from Hindi, here

Mogathirai lyrics, translated from Tamil, here

Currently reading: Nothin' but meta posts from the lovely big-brained folks of Tumblrville

Currently watching: Oooooh. I actually wrapped up a lot of live watches and caught up on some incredible shows last week, so lemme do 3 mini-lists:

Recently Watched: Only Friends, Utsukushii Kare / My Beautiful Man, If It's With You / Kimi to Nara Koi wo Shite Mite mo, I Feel You Linger In The Air

Currently Watching: Midnight Diner / Shinya Shokudo, endless reruns of Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Community

Next-Up on the Watchlist: I Cannot Reach You / Kimi ni wa Todokanai, Shadow, Dark Blue Kiss, Middleman's Love, Last Twilight, Playboyy, The Whisperer

Current favourite character: Ryuji from If It's With You.

< mild spoilers ahead for If It's With You >

This show did an incredible job portraying two people who have different levels/intensities of desire for one another and I was *floored* when Ryuji responded to Amane's confession in episode 4 with so much care, thoughtfulness and respect for both Amane's desire and his own boundaries. "Please make it one sided for a while" will live in my head rent free for the foreseeable future.

And Amane and Ryuji's conversation at the beach in the finale was another heartfelt and expertly written moment. I deeply adore how Ryuji basically went "I miss you and want to meet you whenever I feel like it, and if that means being a lover, then so be it. Let's date".

So yeah, I'm in love with this highly articulate, fictional, Japanese teenage boy

Current WIP: Ohhhhh man, SO MANY. The most pressing one is a retrospective meta on the Only Friends finale, which I must release into the wild before people move on from the show

Tags: I'm epically late to this one, so I might tag folks who have already done this, so if I do, apologies, friends!

@bengiyo, @italianpersonwithashippersheart, @sunshinechay, @syrena-del-mar, @ranchthoughts, @troubled-mind, @sorry-bonebag, @so-much-yet-to-learn and anyone else who wants to participate. No presh!

Touko: We can never let anyone know.

Yuu: Agreed.

Touko: Take it to the grave?

Yuu: To the grave.

Touko: This conversation never happened.

Yuu: I don’t even know who you are.

Touko: ... That’s hurtful, you took it too far.

Yuu: That’s a weird thing for a stranger to say.

Las diez series del 2022

Este año he pensado que ya vale de usar el resumen del año como muro de las lamentaciones, así que esta vez resumiré mi año seriéfilo.

👀 Ojo, que son cosas que HE VISTO el pasado año, este artículo contiene una alta cantidad de trazas búmers.

10. Teen Titans

Qué decir de este seriote. Para mi es la ejecución perfecta de un producto que quería ser muchas cosas; serio, pero desenfadado. Occidental, pero Oriental. Que cada uno fuera por su lado, pero que al mismo tiempo hubiera lealtad al grupo. Destacar especialmente la animación del equipo Dong Woo, que sabe mezclar todas esas contraposiciones con tanta precisión que lo transforma en una parte fundamental del encanto de la serie. Ah, bueno, ¡y el diseño de personajes! Maravilla pura. Un dibujo de Chico Bestia de esta época sería mi única concesión para entrar a una tienda de tatuajes.

"La nueva generación de superhéroes protege a la Tierra de los ataques de villanos, luchando por la verdad, la justicia… y por el último trozo de pizza"

Puedes verla en: Toonami

9. Superstore

Mira que no soy de series de carne y hueso, pero la NBC es experta en llevar a la realidad sitcoms que aspiran ese estilo cómico más propio de la animación. Si otra de sus grandes bazas fue Brooklyn Nine-Nine, aquí nos encontramos con un elenco tronchante que sabe aprovechar los grandes límites de un hipermercado y en el que ningún empleado sobra en pantalla, desde la tronchante Nina hasta la anciana Myrtle. Y por si no fuera suficiente, ironiza en masa con los derroteros por los que nos lleva el capitalismo. Es una pena que en España haya pasado linealmente sin pena ni gloria (los departamentos publicitarios de ambas cadenas a las que la Universal de aquí timbró tampoco es que ayudara), porque van a pasar muchos años hasta que salga una serie igual.

"Los empleados de una tienda gigantesca viven divertidas aventuras en su lugar de trabajo, como por ejemplo lidiar con clientes impertinentes o asistir a tediosas sesiones de formación y entrenamiento."

Puedes verla en: Netflix

8. De yakuza a amo de casa

Tranquilamente podría ser la sucesora espiritual de Shin Chan y se la pela. Las tramas por las que pasa Tatsu son muy cortas y cíclicas, pero da igual en qué variante te sitúen que no vas a poder evitar descojonarte. Destacaría el ingenio del estudio J.C.Staff por tener la capacidad de hacer comedia usando los mínimos recursos, en especial por su limitada animación. Es más, seguro que si no se hubiera hecho de esta manera, no hubiera sido un anime tan gracioso. La dirección de Marc Zanni en el doblaje para España es demencial.

Tatsu era uno de los más temidos y legendarios yakuzas... Hasta que eligió abandonar la organización y dedicarse a tiempo completo a las tareas del hogar.

Puedes verla en: Netflix

7. Inspectora Marleau

Estaréis pensando "mierda, una serie francesa", y si, es LA serie francesa; retorcida, que se las da de intelectual y quieres morirte en cada capítulo por que CADA UNO DURA NOVENTA MINUTAZOS. Pero no, no podía eludir este producto de imagen real, por qué a pesar de todas esas pegas que le hubieran echado para atrás a cualquiera, yo me lo pasé bien. Marleau es una incontinente verbal que trabaja para la policía francesa tratando de resolver casos de la forma menos pudorosa del mundo, pero si ahí sigue es por qué siempre acierta. Si quieres arquear las cejas hasta que se te desordenen, échale un vistazo al caso que más te guste. Un buen punto a favor es que casi todo se graba fuera de platós (de paisajes tenían que presumir los franceses).

"A la inspectora jefe Marleau no hay escena del crimen que se le resista. Detrás de sus formas poco ortodoxas oculta una dureza formidable y un estilo afilado que le permiten distinguir a los culpables más retorcidos."

Puedes verlo en: Calle 13

6. Bluey

Turno de un ineludible. Empezó en la televisión australiana, la BBC empezó a moverla por el mundo y Disney acabó de hacer el chimpún. Y ha sucedido un segundo efecto "Little Pony", causando el furor de medio Twitter, que a su vez se retroalimenta en aquellos padres que se la enseñan a sus hijos. Realmente no me parece casual su éxito; tiene un guión que respira verdad por sus cuatro esquinas. Situaciones del día a día en una familia honrada, no necesita más. Y al mismo tiempo que un niño se identifica por ser una serie que no lo subestima, el adulto también se ablanda cuál mantita calentita en un domingo de sofá pensando (y tal vez deseando) volver a aquella época en la que fueron niños, en la que las cosas eran mucho más fáciles de afrontar y más bonitas de sentir. Unos años en los que podíamos ser nosotros mismos.

Bluey tiene una imaginación desbordante y le encanta convertir la vida cotidiana en aventuras lúdicas. Junto a su hermana Bingo, se lanzan a explorar su mundo, utilizando el juego para vencer sus miedos y probar los roles de los adultos.

Puedes verlo en: Disney +

5. Colegio Abbott

Siempre he querido ver una comedia de instituto en la que los protagonistas fueran los profesores. Y esta serie de ABC no sólo consigue hacer comedia de una forma tan realista, sino que además hace un tratamiento respetuoso con los diversos tipos de alumnado a los que se enfrentan de la misma forma que lo haría un profesor ejemplar. Es una serie que chiflará especialmente a docentes, ya que seguro que identificarán a más de un compañero de trabajo: la motivada pero falta de tablas (Janine), la decana que se las sabe todas (Barbara), la que reparte caña (Melissa), el desubicado (Gregory) y la directora que se la pela como la que más (Ava). Estoy que me arranco las uñas por ver su segunda temporada doblada al castellano.

"Un grupo de maestros dedicados y apasionados trabaja para ayudar a sus estudiantes a tener éxito en la vida, a pesar de la cantidad de alumnado que tienen que atender y con presupuestos limitados."

Puedes verlo en: Disney +

4. Detective Conan

Hablando de adultos que desearían ser niños, he aquí uno que lo consiguió. Un detective que se las sabe todas, pero que si comparas sus primeras andadas en 1999 con sus recientes, notas cómo Shinichi Kudo ha pasado de tener una alta angustia por volver a su adulta normalidad… a acomodarse en su niñez. ¿Quién quisiera perder el privilegio de vivir con la mejor parte de ser un niño y un adulto al mismo tiempo? La única pega, que el pobre no puede ligar con Ran como él quisiera, pero qué quieres que te diga; entre chuscar y la sencillez vital, ya puede venir el maromo que quiera que prefiero seguir resolviendo crímenes con una taza de Cacaolat en la mano.

Divagaciones aparte, es una serie que ha envejecido lo mismo que su protagonista. Dos décadas después, los casos de Conan Edogawa siguen teniendo cosas que contar: desde un suicidio hasta un falso accidente de tráfico con el fin de vengarse de un despedido que provocó a su vez el despido de otro trabajador que no lo merecía. Y siempre podemos permitirnos un hueco en nuestras vidas para averiguar que las pruebas nunca mienten.

"Shinichi Kudo es un joven detective que consigue esclarecer cualquier misterio, por difícil que sea. Un día, nuestro protagonista descubre los maléficos planes de una peligrosa organización criminal y es envenenado. Sin embargo, el veneno no lo mata, sino que por accidente, lo encoge y lo convierte en un niño de 6 años."

Puedes verlo en: SX3 y en PlutoTV

3. Django desencadenado

La 1 de RTVE es así de caprichosa; lo mismo te cae un bodrio que te cae un peliculón. Y esta acierta de lleno, con un manejo sobresaliente de lo audiovisual. La historia, más que sencilla, contiene un trasfondo social tan potente que te hace justificar cada gota de sangre. Después de todo, no se ve a un negro pegando a tiros a un supremacista blanco todos los días. Hay escenas brillantes en las que se pasa de una tensión cuál persona rallando un plato de porcelana a un gag propio de los cortos de Looney Tunes en un minuto. El doctor Schultz es un cabrón con principios y encima le sobra a la peli un cuarto de hora para meter una historia de amor y DICAPRIO ¿QUÉ MÁS PUEDO PEDIR de un villano tan educado? Una de mis películas de imagen real favoritas (y la más vista de Tarantino, por algo será).

En Texas, dos años antes de estallar la Guerra Civil Americana, un cazarrecompensas alemán que sigue la pista a unos asesinos para cobrar por sus cabezas, le promete a un esclavo negro dejarlo en libertad si le ayuda a atraparlos. Él acepta, pues luego quiere ir a buscar a su esposa Broomhilda, esclava en una plantación del terrateniente Calvin Candie.

Puedes verlo en: RTVE Play

2. Beavis y Butt-head recorren América

Seguramente alguien me dirá que había opciones mejores que esta, pero es probable que sea la cosa más sinvergüenza que he visto en mi vida y por eso mismo es tan divertida. No cualquiera podría estirar taaanto un compendio de botones (sus risas, sus coñas sexuales, etc.) sin desgastarse. Beavis & Butthead es el joder por convicción eterna y ese sudapollismo debe ser premiado. El doblaje también es particularmente interesante, lo cuál me recuerda a que NECESITO IMPERIOSAMENTE que alguien rescate la serie (y la segunda película) en castellano. Paramount +, calienta que sales.

"Dos adolescentes ineptos, Beavis y Butt-Head, descubren que alguien ha robado su televisor. Desesperados, se embarcan en una aventura para encontrarla. Por el camino se encuentran a Muddy Grimes, que los contratará para matar a su esposa, Dallas, quien se encuentra en un hotel de Las Vegas."

Ha sido avistada en Comedy Central y en CeX

1. Sonic 2

Aquí tenía que elegir la mejor película de animacion actual y ha sido MUY DIFÍCIL. Estaba entre la de Chip y Chop, por ser una delícia humoristica hacia los frikis de la animación o la última de los Minions, que incluso originó un movimiento masivo social (los gentleminions) en el que se reivindicaba con sorna la nueva generación de jóvenes que crecieron con la saga de Illumination, o que diría Randy Meeks, un paso marcado que sustituía a golpe de escalera automática aquellos jóvenes que mamamos la franquicia de Shrek.

Pero he optado por la cinta de Jeff Fowler, por adaptar con éxito la friolera de incorporar a Tails y Knuckles en dos horas y en el marco de un videojuego querido por muchos, pero del que era difícil sacar cosas en claro al ser un juego centrado en el jugar y en el que no estaban de moda la argumentación. Jim Carrey es el perfecto Eggman, y aunque no fue santo de devoción para críticos y extraños, si considero que cumple su función de entretener, siendo coherente con los valores del juego de SEGA: el valor del compañerismo y la amistad nos permite superarnos cuándo la situación lo requiere.

"Después de establecerse en Green Hills, Sonic se muere por demostrar que tiene madera de auténtico héroe. La prueba de fuego llega con el retorno del malvado Robotnik, en esta ocasión con un nuevo compinche, Knuckles, en busca de una esmeralda que tiene el poder de destruir civilizaciones. Sonic forma equipo con su propio compañero de fatigas, Tails, y juntos se lanzan a una aventura que les llevará por todo el mundo en busca de la preciada piedra para evitar que caiga en manos equivocadas."

Puedes verlo en: Prime Video

Otros títulos que me han alegrado el año que dejamos atrás han sido series como Tuca y Bertie, Jujutsu Kaisen, Teen Titans Go, Oddtaxi, Los Simpsons de Matt Selman, Smiling Friends, Colgados en Filadelfia, Black Clover, Futurama o Mob Pyscho 100 (esa tendrá un puestaco de mármol el año que viene, pero es que me la estoy empezando, jeje).

Os deseo un 2023 en el que estemos todos menos machacaos por los gajes de la vida, ¡y prósperas series por descubrir! Gracias por soportarme un año más. 🍜

The Blanket

Hey, @amydancepants-peralta, I am your @b99fandomevents fix exchange writer! I really hope you enjoy this!! Thank you for giving me the idea <3 

Summary: As Jake and Amy's relationship becomes more stable, they start to learn each other's annoying quirks and wonderful traits- which is just what Jake wanted to do this weekend. (Set just before s3's episode the cruise, where Jake and Amy admit that they love each other.) (word count: 2,074)

Read On Ao3

---

New York was never the hottest place on earth. It was a fact that Jake had to deal with, arming himself with expensive blankets (Too expensive, definitely not warm enough to keep a penguin warm in the Antarctic, as the commercial that got Jake to call in had promised) and warm PJs against the chill that started in September, fighting against the feeling of waking up in the morning with that gross half-cold that could last the entire day.

Sighing as he got out of the elevator, Jake could feel the AC heating up his nostrils, his hands, until he felt warm enough to take his coat off, draping it over his forearm.

His shoes made a squelching sound as he walked past Captain Holt, greeting him with that "Mornin' Cap'n" that would've granted him a lesson on how to say the word 'Captain' in the past, but now it was just ignored- Jake saw that as a definite victory.

"Peralta, why are your shoes making that sound?" Holt asked, his arms crossed over his chest and his jaw set as if he were angry, but after three years of being under Holt's command, Jake knew that that's just how his face was usually set, making it super hard to understand if the Captain was actually mad, sad, or glad.

"Got out of my car and into a puddle, Sir. Just, straight in," He said, trying to sharpen the image of the incident with a motion of his hand, going downwards.

"Take your shoes off and put them outside," He commanded, an edge of annoyance in his voice that usually colored his speech when he spoke to Jake for more than a minute.

"With all due respect Sir, taking my shoes off is something we got's to avoid," Jake whispered quickly, piercing his lips as he looked at his Captain, wide eyed and waiting for his answer.

Holt huffed through his nose (disastrously dramatic) uncrossing his arms and putting one hand in his pocket. "Dry them off in the bathroom. I highly suggest you leave a change of clothes in the precinct with your track record."

Jake obviously knew what the Captain was talking about- Terry's Yoghurt incident, Charles' steaming pot of whatever-gross-thing-he-was-making, that one time he missed a d-hole (He blamed it on the fact that the donut hole was powdered. "I didn't account the weight of the powder in my calculations!" to which Amy said "You don't even know how to heat up leftover pizza.")

"Duly noted, Cap'n," But Holt was already walking away from him.

Before he'd go and dry his shoes, Jake decided to start his computer up. Even if he'll be gone for fifteen minutes with his shoes, he was sure he'd come back to the loading screen still halfway done. Amy was already sitting at her desk, working with the hard copy of a case until her own computer was ready to go.

When they wouldn't spend the night together she'd come early, and on the days where they did (nights that were becoming more and more frequent, to Jake's satisfaction) they'd come on time- Well, Amy would come on time, and Jake would come in five minutes later, to make sure Charles won't freak out.

"God, that noise is annoying," Amy said, without looking up from her file. She was smiling though, and soon enough she did look up at him, catching him in the middle of dressing his chair with his coat. He leaned in to press the 'on' button on the computer, before he stood next to Amy's chair, walking in place and grinning down at her while the sound of his shoes seemed to irritate her immensely.

"Ha, ha," She said sarcastically, even though her face seemed pretty entertained. Jake's own face seemed smug, because making Amy want to smile, seeing the edges of her lips forced down because we're at work, Jake, felt like the biggest, most definite victory of them all.

He leaned his hand on Amy's desk and looked around. Charles was in the breakroom, far enough for them to talk without his interruptions.

"I was thinking, maybe, a weekend in? Order take-out and watch something on Netflix?" A weekend in and something to watch was the next big step in a relationship, as Jake saw it. To him, it was the moment a relationship got serious- Fancy dinners, pretty clothes and hooking up was amazing, of course, but he wanted to see the more casual side of Amy. In all of his past relationships, that's what he liked best- the moment it went from dates to hanging out, to a routine life with someone he liked.

"On one condition," She said, leaning closer. "Uh-huh," Jake retaliated, biting his smile. "No Die Hard."

Jake huffed, leaning back and clapping his hands together. "You drive a hard bargain, Ames. Fine, you'll pick the movie." Amy's smile made her whole face scrunch up. Stupidly adorable. "I'll come over at Eight." He smiled as she agreed, before walking off to take care of his shoes, wondering where he could get a different pair.

----

At Seven-Fifty Seven, Jake heard the doorbell ring. It was nice to not have to straighten a buttoned-up shirt or check his breath. He opened the door to find Amy in a regular T-shirt and comfortable leggings, making his already wide smile grow wider. "Hey," She said, getting through the door and pecking his lips. "I ordered Chinese, extra Egg Rolls as you wanted. Should be here any minute," Jake sat on the sofa, and Amy immediately sat next to him. "Great, I'm starving. I didn't actually get to eat lunch today, too preoccupied with this case," Jake leaned his head closer, his arm around her shoulders, his attention all on her. "Rosa and I are working on a murder. A woman fell off a fourth-floor window. It seems like no one was in the apartment, but she had fresh bruises around the neck and forearms."

"There was definitely someone in that apartment. Maybe a partner? Got into a fight?" He suggested, and Amy nodded. "That's what we thought- but her husband was out of town. He's heading back to the city right now, we're meeting him tomorrow to go through our list of suspects."

Jake nodded, but tried to shut off his detective-brain. He definitely couldn't. "Any good suspects?" Amy sighed, shaking her head. "No signs of forced entry. If she did get murdered, it was someone she trusted."

Amy kept talking about the case, her hands gesticulating and her eyes shining and eyebrows raising at the ends of her sentences. Even though Jake listened to Amy and knew that what happened to that woman was horrible, he couldn't help but smile. "So there might be a conne- why are you smiling? Don't tell me you solved it," Amy leaned her head to the side and was smiling with him now. Jake shook his head no, "It's nothing. You're just adorable. Do continue," Amy didn't try to hide her smile now, kissing Jake for a moment before she continued all the same, only to be cut off by a knock on the door.

"If it's not the Egg Rolls I'll literally start eating the couch," Jake said, getting up to open the door.

---

Three hours of noodles, Sushi and teaching Amy how to use Chopsticks later, she was sleeping next to him, her arm around his stomach, lips parted, cheek squished to his chest. As much as he hated waking her up, Jake knew it was best to do so- sleeping like this will lead to a day of a painful neck. "Ames," Jake whispered, rubbing her arm. She let out a soft 'huh', her eyes still shut. "I can't believe you picked the movie and still fell asleep," Jake teased, and then her eyes looked up at him, so tired and comfortable. "C'mon, I'll give you the good lump." At that, Amy groaned. "You and your lumps," She muttered, getting up with Jake to his bed.

"A change of clothes?" Jake held out a warm shirt. Amy took it and turned away from him, which almost made Jake snort. He stayed silent, changing his own shirt and turning the AC on. The room was filled with the beeps of the AC as Jake flipped through the settings until he got to warm. "Thanks, I get super cold when the weather's like this," Amy said, kissing his cheek and getting into bed.

"Yeah, same. People that put their AC on cold are ruthless," Jake took his place next to her, wrapping himself with the best, warmest blanket he had. Amy was turned away from him, as she liked to sleep facing the edge of the bed. He looped one arm around her stomach as she settled, taking a bit too much of the blanket for Jake's liking- His thigh was peeking under, and when it comes to the cold, every inch of his body needs to be covered to survive the night.

Jake tugged at the blanket, just enough to cover up again, only for Amy to take the blanket- this time, she took even more, and he saw the bunched up fabric of the blanket against her chest. His eyes widened and he inhaled sharply through his nose. "Blanket hog!" Jake whispered in a pointed manner, making Amy turn towards him.

"Your blanket's too narrow for two people!"

"It's not too narrow if you stop hogging it like the hog you are, you hog. This is MY blanket, it was too expensive for me not to use it."

Amy gasped, and with that she took more of the blanket. "No, no," Jake muttered as he pulled at Amy's bunch until they were both hugging the blanket to their chest, half and half, pulling at it until a tear formed in the middle of the blanket. The good news was that it didn't go all the way through, but it was definitely unusable for two people.

Jake gasped, then groaned, throwing his hand in the air. "I'll fix it up somehow tomorrow," He said, getting up and reaching for another blanket. This one was wider, definitely enough for two people (or a single human burrito)

The blanket was thinner than his normal one, but there were no holes in it. With this blanket, Amy could still (annoyingly) bunch the fabric up and Jake would have enough to be fully covered.

In the morning, Jake knew Amy was around even if she wasn't in his bed. He searched the room and figured she was in the living room. Making his way to the kitchen, Jake stopped himself when he went into the living room. Amy was sitting on the couch. Having moved the trash of last night's date, she sprawled the blanket on the coffee table, sewing it methodically.

"Coffee?" Jake asked, and Amy looked up from her work, her hands still on the blanket. "Please. Your machine kept beeping at me and I was scared it'd start splashing steaming water in my eyes." She went back to her sewing, and Jake joined her on the sofa a few minutes later, two cups of coffee in hand. "You really don't have to," Jake looked at her, wondering if she felt guilty and that's why she tried to fix the blanket. "I know. But I want to. It's a good blanket, and I want to keep it alive." Amy shrugged, piercing the fabric once more. "Besides, I could use the practice, not a lot of time stitching between work and dating and, well, everything else."

Jake looked at Amy for a few moments, at how her hands moved swiftly and steadily, before he turned the TV on. "Thank you, it's really nice that you're doing this for me."

Amy turned to him, pecking his lips quickly, then biting her own. "It's the least I can do after you gave me the good lump."

As the morning kept on going and the blanket was finished, the two cuddled under it, finally watching a movie that Amy picked, eating cold take out and ordering some more food.

That weekend, of being together and fighting, making out, talking, laughing and making it all feel so routine in the best way possible made Jake want to stay like that forever, as long as he had Amy with him, he could make do with no one else.

A summary of today’s Optimus Prime #14.

[hxuse-xf-black]

Tonks: Look, since you can’t say anything nice about Snape, try saying the opposite of whatever you’re thinking.

Sirius: Interesting. I’ll give it a whirl.

Sirius: Severus Snape... is... a friend.

Remus: See? It's not that hard to say something ni—oh, you're vomiting.
