Prompt: Boys Don’t Cry

Pairing: Hawkmetri

***

“I’m deleting my Instagram.”

Demetri pauses Doctor Who and turns to Eli, hunched on the corner of the bed and staring at his phone.

“Why? That’s where we get the most real-time Crucible Control updates!”

“Kids from school found me.”

Demetri freezes. Eli’s voice is quavering, eyes growing wet.

“They’re saying I’m ugly. I think they’re right.”

Demetri scoots over, throwing an arm around Eli’s shoulder as he crumples into sobs.

“They’re morons, Eli. Probably can’t even post a selfie without Photoshop.”

“But I’m still—”

“You’re not.” Demetri squeezes Eli’s shoulder. “No one with half a brain thinks that.”

***

So we know Eli got cyberbullied about his lip scar to the point of tears at least once...but it probably happened regularly if his mom felt the need to intervene. I always figured he had 1 or more beginning-of-2x05 style meltdowns with Demetri present (since he’s canonically comfortable crying in front of Demetri!) at some point prior to the show. It was only after he had these kind of meltdowns several times before Mrs. Moskowitz, in all her meddling glory, decided to step in.

Anyways Demetri was/is a good comforter and is always more than down to hug Eli until he feels better and this is the hill I will die on <3

[historicity-was-already-taken]

In the past I have been highly critical of the fact that so much Holocaust memory is constructed through the autobiographical/memoiric writings of men, like Elie Wiesel and Primo Levi. And I remain critical, because that male canon obscures the experiences for women.

I've understood for a while that women write for their families while men write for history, but I've finally figured out how to put words to another piece of it. Because women perceive their individual experiences to have been unimportant, or as a tiny part of a whole, their writings are much harder for laypeople to understand.

One of the most moving Warsaw Ghetto resistance memoirs I've read so far has been I Remember Nothing More: The Warsaw Children's Hospital and the Jewish Resistance by Adina Blady-Szwajger. Towards what I'm going to call the first ending of this memoir (pg. 153), she writes:

When I finished the last page of my memoirs, I went back to the beginning. I read them through-and suddenly realized that something was wrong. I had wanted to bear witness to the true events of those times, but I had done it very awkwardly. Over the last forty-five years, the world has changed, new generations have grown up, and everything that happened has faded in the mists of history ... Everything has changed - even the streets I wrote about are no longer on the map of contemporary Warsaw. So much of what I wrote has ceased to be clear and comprehensible ... We have crossed the barrier of shadows, and one by one we are leaving. The young are left behind. And it would be a good thing if something of those years remained for them. And so we need to explain, not just to reminisce. I don’t know whether I am able to. I am not a professional writer, or a chronicler. But I must try ...

This type of ambivalence towards one's right to record their memories over such a traumatic past is a typical presence in women's Holocaust memoirs, but so is the issue Blady-Szwajger so eloquently points out above: the memories recorded are niche, interpersonal; recording events and landscapes and individuals which have not penetrated collective memory, and remain obscure to laypersons. At the time, the massacre of a Ukrainian shtetl was the most memorable moment in a writer's life, but from the lens of us, as students of history, it may be a blip in the larger history of Einsatzgruppen actions at the beginnings of Operation Barbarossa.

Because male writers are much more likely to understand themselves as purveyors of history, and not simply as small, modest pieces of a collective, many of their writers include attempts to contextualize events they personally experienced within the larger history of World War II and the Holocaust. Whereas women, simply remember.

Israeli First-Grader Finds a 3,500-Year-Old Egyptian Amulet on a School Trip

At first she was upset she couldn’t keep it, but Amalia Riverkin eventually came around.

A first-grade teacher at Alumim School in Efrat, a settlement in Palestine, recently took her class on a trip to Tel Azekah, sometimes described as the site of the biblical encounter between David and Goliath. Showing them a piece of old pottery she had picked up, she explained that there were many ancient artifacts and unique items in the ground.

When she noted her pupil and their friend lagging behind the group toward the end of the trip, she found them studying a tiny rock that looked like a bead.

“I looked at it closely and saw incised lines, I turned it over and saw ancient Egyptian writing,” Hanna Spitzer, the teacher, later said. “At that moment I realized that what I was holding in my hand was thousands of years old.” In fact, experts now say the item dates back some 3,500 years.

Spitzer contacted the Israel Antiquities Authority, and Omer Shalev, director of the organization’s Jerusalem Education Center, traveled to the school that same day and presented Amalia with a certificate of appreciate.

The scarab seal is a talisman in the shape of a dung beetle, an animal that was sacred to the ancient Egyptians and served as a symbol of new life. Such scarab amulets found in modern-day Israel indicate an Egyptian presence there some 3,500 years ago. The amulet bears the name of the sun god Amun-Ra, one of the great deities in the Egyptian pantheon during the New Kingdom (16th to 11th centuries B.C.E.). Five scarabs inscribed with his name had already been found at Tel Azekah.

“Many people have antiquities in their homes that came into their possession under different circumstances: some were collected in the field in the course of agricultural work or walking and others were inherited,” Eli Escusido, Antiquities Authority director stated in a press release published on the organization’s Facebook page. “Many of these people are unaware that by law they have to report the discovery of antiquities as they are legally public historical treasures.”

A Tad Discussion

So, I kind of wanted to do this post for a while now. I was just never sure how to collect my thoughts about it because Tad as a character is very... interesting to me, specifically his motivation for why he hates Eli and his hatred for his dad despite acting almost just like him. So, sit back and relax as I try my best to understand and explain Tad.

Tad himself, as a character was obviously not very well-liked when he was first introduced. Despite the fandom being really small at the time our tiny but mighty fandom had a bone to pick with Tad because he's just Twist but almost worse. It's like those goofy fanfic where they're like and then it turns out that along Dr. Blakk had an evil son or daughter. Like it's just really lazy and we already had a character that the fandom really liked do this plot so much better

But I don't want to talk about Twist's motivation (I'll save that hopefully for another day), but I want to talk about Tad. First of all, his motivation for hating his dad really doesn't make sense... at first, I will explain. For example, he constantly says that he's picking up where his FEEBLE father left off and Tad I don't know if you've SEEN your father but that man is not feeble for the life of him lol.

But he continues to go on to insult him calling his dad a fool and even when Boss Ember calls him junior since I assume his full name is Thaddius Blakk Jr., it really pisses him off and his points his blaster at Boss Ember saying he's no one's junior. Speaking of his name it's interesting that he goes by Tad and not Thad. I guess you could argue that he was trying to hide himself from Eli and the Shane gang but considering how much he hates being called junior I feel like that's not the case.

It's just strange. He's really pissed off at being called Junior and acts like he doesn't want to associate with him but then ACTS just like him. I mean not completely, he doesn't ghoul Peiper which is better than you can say for Twist, but it's almost like Tad knows the ghouling is wrong. Maybe that was a way to differentiate from his father. I know they say it's to control the ghouls better but still

Either way, what does this leave us with. A boy who had a horrible life on the surface that acts like his dad but doesn't want to associate himself with him and who literally says that he wants to be twice the man he was. Sounds like bad writing sure but I think it's something different. I think Tad is overcompensating.

I mean think about it. Imagine you're Tad. You have a horrible life on the surface and your father either left you or doesn't even know about you only to spend all his time in this fantasy world building a business and a life that you're not a part of.

Only to later find a map or create a map I can't remember which one it was that leads to this underground, and you think I'm gonna go see my dad only to find that he was defeated by as he says "A kid my own age" I would be pretty mad too and it's clear just like Twist, Tad is taking out his problems as his frustrations out on Eli. Also, I will say I feel like the "evilness" from Tad came outta no nowhere or it could just be bad writing.

Either way, I still think he's overcompensating for his daddy issues. Everyone does something different. Some run away and become the protector of the world, some steal treasures, some become their enemy's associate, and others resurrect their father's business lol

But to finish off, Tad clearly wants to show the world or eh Slugterra that he is clearly better than his dad and a better villain. He's kinda like, oh, you were a businessman and left me or didn't know about me well, I’m gonna be a better businessman than you ever were, and I’ll prove that leaving me behind was a mistake. He hates his father so much that he wants to prove to everyone and himself that he can be better than him and kind of show off that he never needed him. At least, that’s the kind of vibe I get from Tad.

I mean in the end, I'm probably just reading waaay too much into this character. More likely than not the writers probably were just like ooooo how cool would it be for Blakk to have a son that also lived on the surface and then betrays the gang... as if we haven't seen that before. Rip Twist

A Deal | Eli Sunday x fem!Reader

Eli Sunday x fem!Reader

Word Count | 1,306

Author’s Note | so this is another one that you all can thank soph for. this one came to me literally all at once?? like within thirty minutes I had this fun little drabble so I guess I can inflict it upon my followers now.

Warnings | smut (MDNI), fingering, mentions of reader being on period, mention of blood, nothing else I can think of!!

You’ve been moody all day. And Eli knows by now what that means. It’s almost unspoken when your period comes around. He doesn’t have the dates memorized but he can tell when there’s a change in how you hold yourself. You’re a little slower, sigh in pain more often, and easily tire out. 

Today, however, you’ve been begrudgingly doing your chores and working yourself to the bone. Laundry, sweeping, dusting the wood furniture, and finally, washing the dishes.

It’s the end of the night and he’s scarcely seen you sit still for longer than a few minutes. And when you do, it’s just to fan yourself from the heat of the day.

With the clock striking midnight, you’re still awake, slaving away over the sink. And he is beaming with pride over you. Even while on your period, you pushed through and did the chores that needed to be done. He’s sure you’re so tired you could crumble the second you decide to rest. As time ticks on, you don’t seem to be stopping. And, to be very honest, he’s waiting for you to come to bed. 

He’s waiting to reward you for your devotion to your house and home. Yet you stand in the same spot. And he gets so frustrated that you won’t allow yourself a moment of rest.

So he strolls up behind you, snakes his arms around your middle and peeks over your head at the plate you’re scrubbing furiously at.

He whispers, “Don’t you think it’s time to come to bed, Mrs. Sunday?” And he rocks you in place. Hoping that the movement inspires some sort of sleepiness that will make you yawn and agree to join him.

Instead you argue, “No. If I don’t do these, then who will?” And you only say that because Eli is always so busy. Planning out sermons and providing his services to the community.

He thinks of your reply for a moment. Pecks your shoulder. Lazily pulls the cream colored strap of your undergarments down your arm.

At some point during the day you’d stripped down to them because it was so dreadfully hot. And Eli hadn’t been able to keep his lustful eyes to himself all day. Even though he’s seen your shoulder many times before, it’s an all too familiar, intimate position that he craves in an instant. He’s kissing the curve of your neck because he knows the button of his nose tickles you there. It’s yet another tactic he employs to try and soften you to his reward. 

Still, you won’t budge.

You simply whine with an air of annoyance, “Eli, if I don’t get these done, then I’ll never get to bed.”

He doesn’t cease pressing kissing to your shoulder, and they get wetter as he’s trying to mark you up now.

“How about we make a deal? You let me do what I want to do and I’ll wash the rest of these tomorrow.” He gestures towards the few plates left, soaking in the bubbly water.

You look over your shoulder slightly, “It seems like the only one this deal benefits is me.”

He smiles, places a warm kiss on your cheek and chuckles softly, “That’s the point, darling.”

His hands at your front are wandering and you almost don’t notice it until you feel the snap of the waistband of your bloomers against your skin. And one of his large hands is traveling deeper to your folds. On the way there, his fingers brush against the rags meant to collect your blood. You probably hadn’t changed them once all day. 

He clicks his tongue right beside your ear, chastising you for how you’d neglected to take care of yourself, “Oh, Mrs. Sunday, you’ve been hurting all day, haven’t you?”

You nod slightly, manage a tiny, “Mhm,” as you feel the pads of his fingers feathering over your clit. 

“Why didn’t you tell me?” He asks. You’re already feeling a little fuzzy in the head with him compressed completely against your back, trapping you right in front of the sink.

“I didn’t want to…worry you.” You reply vaguely.

“You’re my wife, darling. It’s my job to worry about you. To take care of you. In every way I possibly can.”

With that, his fingers plunge right into your core. It’s tight and warm and he can already hear the slight squelching of your heat, muffled by the fabric of your bloomers. But over that is the sound of you gasping for air as you throw your head back against him. Your grip on the counter goes even harder.

Even though you know he has you steady, your legs are starting to wobble. Between his hand down your bloomers and the one making its way to your breast, feeling you up over the lacy material, you don’t have a chance in hell at lasting very long.

And he knows it. Oh Lord, does he recognize the quiver of your body as he works to set you right.

He smiles wickedly and attacks your neck. Whispers, “You should know by now that I can heal your aches. You don’t have to suffer silently. If I had expected silence, I wouldn’t have married you.” And you almost roll your eyes, knowing it’s a tease at how loud you’re being; breathy gasps and moans all for him. It works him up more than anything.

He doesn’t have a spare hand to touch himself, so he improvises; ruts against the curve of your ass, the layers of clothing creating a delightful friction against his cock. He’s groaning right against your ear. The display is so lewd—so personal—that you’re almost surprised that he isn’t inside you. 

When he slides another one of his long fingers inside you, they’re stretching you almost the same way that his cock would. Every stroke gets faster, digits curling each time as he brushes against your tight walls. Each thrust of his hips, he knows he’s close to finishing what he started. Especially as you start humping his hand and your voice gets angelically high. It sends you even further over the edge, knowing you’re using his hand to get off while he’s using the curve of your behind as well.

Placing your hand over his, you cry out. It’s the one holding onto one of your now exposed tits. His thumb swipes over the sensitive bud, standing erect and agitated.

You’re breathing hard as he pulls his fingers out of you and goes right back to working your clit, his circles are furious and swift, making you sweat and clench your teeth in anticipation.

“Are you ready for it, my love?” He whispers urgently. He’s glad you nod quickly because he feels like he’s seconds away from bursting. The second he does, your chest convulses and your legs begin to give way.

You’re a house of twigs during a windstorm as he murmurs little praises, “You do so good for me, angel. So good. You deserve this.” Until finally you shatter entirely with a shuddering moan.

His hand lingers in your bloomers, toying lazily with your clit and working you through the final waves of pleasure before he pulls them out. His fingers glisten with fresh blood.

You’re horrified, on the edge of apologizing when he says under his breath, “Now that won’t do…” and simply dips his hand into the soapy dish water; uses the other one to scrub the blood from under his nails. You’re caged in his grasp, watching him turn the water pink.

He kisses your shoulder one last time and says, “Now I think it’s time for bed, dear.” And guides you, still shaky on your feet, to your bedroom.

He kisses you goodnight like he’s completely innocent and pulls you towards him, hoping you won’t keep the tension pent up ever again.

[CN] Gavin’s 2022 Birthday Text and Moment

🍒 Warning: Detailed spoilers from content which has not been released in EN! 🍒

✧ Please read his Birthday R&S first!

[ TEXT ]

Gavin: You actually found this photograph.

Option 1-1: Is there a special meaning behind these stickmen?

Option 1-2: This photo is really unique and adorable. Why are there four tiny stickmen?

Option 1-3: It was sandwiched with the STF group photos~ Are these tiny people Eli, Tang Chao and the others?

[ Option 1-1 ]

MC: Is there a special meaning behind these stick people?

Gavin: The button represents me while the other three represent the squadmates I was closest to with back in the day.

Gavin: The stone represents my Captain, the bottle cap represents my Vice Captain, and the drink bottle cap represents a squadmate who knew how to write poems.

Gavin: We couldn’t take a group photo back then, so we used this method to snap a group photo.

Option 2-1: I’d like to hear the story relating to you and the others... When will you share it with me?

Option 2-2: A soldier who writes poems? That sounds pretty cool. I wonder what he wrote?

Option 2-3: Since they were your most important squadmates, you must feel regretful that there isn’t a real group photo...

-

[ Option 1-2 ]

MC: This photo is really unique and adorable. Why are there four tiny stickmen?

Gavin: Due to our identities, we couldn’t take a group photo back then. We used this method to leave a memento.

Gavin: The Vice Captain doesn’t have much talent in art, which explains the casual placement.

Gavin: The stone represents our Captain, the bottle cap represents my Vice Captain, and the drink bottle cap represents a squadmate who knew how to write poems. We usually called him “Poet”.

Option 2-1: I’d like to hear the story relating to you and the others... When will you share it with me?

Option 2-2: A soldier who writes poems? That sounds pretty cool. I wonder what he wrote?

Option 2-3: Since they were your most important squadmates, you must feel regretful that there isn’t a real group photo...

[ Option 2-1 ]

MC: I’d like to hear the story relating to you and the others... When will you share it with me?

Gavin: Sure, but it might sound a little boring to a girl.

Gavin: There are some interesting things. For instance, the Vice Captain seemed gentle but he’d always help us to vent our anger with a smile.

Gavin: He’d also buy the best items with the least amount of money. It’s a unique skill which I haven’t been able to learn.

Option 3-1: I’m really grateful to them. They accompanied and protected you when I wasn’t by your side back then.

Option 3-2: Why don’t we make a stickmen photograph of ourselves too! Do you have any ideas?

-

[ Option 2-2 ]

Option 3-2: Why don’t we make a stickmen photograph of ourselves too! Do you have any ideas?

[ Option 2-3 ]

MC: Since they were your most important squadmates, you must feel regretful that there isn’t a real group photo...

Gavin: To me, even if there isn’t a real group photo, they will always be my squadmates.

Gavin: They are all very good people. I actually dreamt of the Captain a few nights ago. He was lecturing me for dashing into situations alone while giving me a bun.

Gavin: He might have been worried that I wouldn’t be full, so that bun was really huge. It was larger than my fist.

Option 3-1: I’m really grateful to them. They accompanied and protected you when I wasn’t by your side back then.

Option 3-2: Why don’t we make a stickmen photograph of ourselves too! Do you have any ideas?

Option 3-3: Haha, that sounds really interesting! It must have been really fun interacting with them.

[ Option 3-1 ]

MC: I’m really grateful to them. They accompanied and protected you when I wasn’t by your side back then

Gavin: I’m also really grateful to them.

Gavin: Without them, I wouldn’t have become the person I am today.

Gavin: Which is why I’ll treasure all the times we walk alongside each other in the future.

-

[ Option 3-2 ]

MC: Why don’t we make a stickmen photograph of ourselves too! Do you have any ideas?

Gavin: I’d want it to be a little more vivid.

Gavin: If we manage to make it happen, would you re-create these four stickmen with me too?

-

[ Option 3-3 ]

MC: Haha, that sounds really interesting! It must have been really fun interacting with them.

Gavin: It was, aside from being punished to write a reflection by the Captain.

Gavin: If there’s a chance, give me some tips on how to write.

Gavin: That way, I’ll know how to express the thoughts in my heart in the letters I write to you next time.

[ MOMENT ]

Gavin’s Post: Received many responses from various parts of the world.

[btsqualityy]

I'm getting ideas for Hayun and Kai. So if this is long, forgive me😭 you absolutely can delete it cause I don't wanna bother.

But you know, Hayun has divorced parents and divorce is trauma for children. Even the most peaceful ones still bring bad memories, and Eli and his ex wife didn't really end up in good terms since she was salty about him ending up with the "friend she didn't have to worry about", you know? Hayun is their only girl too, and it's also hard for her to see her father being with another woman. Aria is amazing, she has always treated her like her own daughter and doesn't want to replace her own mom, that's why Hayun loves her. But there's a small tiny part of her that broke the day her parents divorced. That's why I see her as a very quiet girl growing up. She minds her own business, she does her own, she has her small group of friends, she reads books and likes to do longs walks alone while she listens to her favorite music, but nothing more. She doesn't want a boyfriend or something like that because she doesn't believe in love anymore. Yes, her dad is very happy with Aria now but it's always possible to them splitting again right? She doesn't want that for herself and doesn't want to catch feelings for someone because if that happened, she'd feel so vulnerable.

And then we have Kai. He doesn’t even know what divorce is since has seen his parents loving each other to death since he was a baby. Never caught one of them talking behind the others' back. Never once. Kai is a basic guy honestly🤣. He likes having fun. He likes doing sport, he's good at school but not too much. He likes girls and partying and he loves his fam.

And Hayun in all of this? Well, she likes him, of course! He's nice, funny, and he's handsome of course. But only Aria knows. Aria suggested to finally telling him and stop this stupid beating around the bush. "If you keep hiding things from the world, no one can see how amazing and beautiful you are, Yun-ah" Aria tells her, but she doesn't listen.

However, it's obvious that she likes him. Kai knows and wants to confront her about it

"If you had told me beforehand that you liked me, I would have told you that I liked you too and asked you to be my girlfriend"

"Yeah, but I didn't so go away Kai"

"But why? I just told you, I like you too!"

"Because I don't want to end up like my mom!" She shouts and Kai is suprised because Hayun has always been calm and collected "My dad has another life now but she doesn't! She's miserable, she dates men just because she doesn't want to be alone and never misses a chance to criticize my father for ending up with Aria! I like you so much Kai but I don't want to have a broken heart like her!" She's sobbing uncontrollably and Kai immediately hugs her tight as she cries

"I promise you I won't break your heart"

"All guys say that"

"You're a friend to me before being the girl I like so I promise I won't. I do stupid things too but I'll try so hard to be the boyfriend you deserve. Please??"

"You'd be disappointed when I tell you I didn't even had my first kiss yet"

"Hey, I don't give a fuck about this, I just want to see you smiling more, and know you more. Please, please allow me to make you happy"

Shay I hurt my own feelings but I couldn't help it🥺🥺

I actually love this 🥹the whole back story and Kai being the same amazing man his father and grandfather are 😭🥰

A thing @nightiingaled and I talked about some time ago was what would happen if our idiot children had a beach trip. This cuteness lives in my head rent free tbh, and even has a tag on the blog for beach related images.

So here we are, friends, a list of nonsense that would definitely occur during THE BEACH EPISODE:

Ty cannot swim, but is very down for beach time. Because warm sand, bright sunshine, and a wet shirtless boyfriend. What’s not to like? 🤷‍♀️

Killian gives her a swimming lesson, and she threatens to “haunt his ass” if she somehow drowns.

Does she cling onto him more than is really necessary? Yes. Yes she does. Nerves are blamed, but it’s about 50% actual fear of the water and 50% just because she wants to.

Post-lesson nap is needed, and of course Ty just flops ontop of him to sleep. Lay on beach? Nah, lay on boyfriend. 🥰

Killian + the Walkers = the safest possible group for her to be around for her swimming attempts. The first sign of trouble and she would be teleported out of the water immediately.

Does this make Mel feel any better about it? Does she listen to Elisiel’s reassurances? HAHA NO.

She’s dressed in as many layers as possible because “I CAN’T LEAVE YOU HERE UNSUPERVISED, BUT ALSO FUCK THIS PLACE.”

Once everyone has calmed down about the potential chaos that is Ty + ocean, Mel is talked into helping them build a sandcastle.

What started as a tiny thing to get Mel to relax and have some fun very quickly gets out of control. The sandcastle is HUGE. It has multiple entrances. It has a moat. Eli has designed paths for it made out of shells he’s collected like the precious bby he is.

They absolutely bury Killian in the sand, which Mel is a little bit too enthusiastic about tbh.

Small Melody (Elise's Story)

Episode One : A Lying Witch and a Warden

It was an average day for Elise Clawthorne, well average as it was the past….what was it now 5 years? Since she and her Mom went into hiding, she was about 10 at the time so, yeah. The average day in question consisted of collecting human 'treasures' which everyone can agree the most part probably came from a landfill, or a dumpster…..probably both. The procedure was always the same, Owlbert grabs the 'treasures' and Elise goes through it. It wasn't the worst though, from time to time Elise would find something she wanted to keep…..though that wasn't a common occurrence. None the less, she couldn't deny they enjoyed the activity, to see the kinds of things they have over there in the human realm. Elise had never been, no matter how much she'd pester Eda about it the answer was always no. The day started the same, Owlbert went to collect the human treasures and Elise sat at the stand her mother ran, awaiting the Palisman's return. She would sit with Frost, her own Palisman who was a Arctic Fox in her lap. It was boring, sitting. What wasn't boring was what she saw when the portal door closed. "Stop adorably hopping away you little--" The voice of the human girl faded off in almost an awe. Elise stared at the girl, she didn't mean to stare she was just….intrigued if anything. She looked to Eda who hadn't noticed the girl, she was just going through her stash, "Garbage,Garbage,Garbage," She gasped and grabbed weird eyeball….glasses? "Now THIS this will make me rich" Elise rolled her eyes. "And this" Eda held up a book, "eh it'll make for some good kindling" The human gasped, Elise looked over and while she was running to go grab the book, so she assumed, walked in front of her causing her to pause. Elise chuckled at the girl and waved. "Hey there human- or is that rude….eh no matter….is this yours?" Elise snatched the book from her mother's hands and handed it to the girl. "Uh yes thank you now I'm just gonna go-" Eda stopped her, "You're not going anywhere"

(Now a word from our sponsors, just kidding)

The girl looked frightened "If youre gonna eat me just do it quick"

Eda gave a glance at Elise who just shrugged. "Eat you? Why would I eat….a potential costumer" Elise groaned and put her face in one of her hands. "Mom-" "Silence Eli" Eda led the girl to the stand and showed off the things she had. She held a box up to the girl, "How about this human box that reflects nothing but sadness" This gave both Elise and the human a chuckle. "That's not all it can do let me see it" The girl took the box and two other things from the bowl labeled 'human candies?' and put them into the box that lit up and had a tiny person inside it. Elise gave a small gasp, "woah" People started crowding around, Eda gave the girl a smirk, "What did you say your name was?" The girl smiled, "Luz, Luz Noceda" "Well Luz, that was pretty good….for a human" "That's kinda a weird thing for another human to say" Elise just rolled her eyes looking at her mother who was obviously enjoying this. "Oh child, I'm not like you" She dramatically pulled off what she was using to ver her ears. Elise just sighed, "You're enjoying this too much Mom…" Eda just laughed and continued, "I'm Eda the Owl Lady, The most powerful witch on the Boiling Isles" Elise laughed a bit, "here we goooo" "A witch?" Luz looked in awe "Hm… well yeah? What did you think we were??" Eda looked at Elise, as if to say not to interrupt her dramatic introduction. "I am a respected,feared-" "Busted!" Elise hid quickly as the magic human box was smashed by the fist of a guard. "Eda the Owl Lady,you are wanted for misuse of magic and demonic misdemeanors" Luz gasped quietly, "woah witch criminal" Elise stayed silent, as she hid from the guards vision. "You are hearby ordered to come with me to the conformatorium" The guard grabbed Eda's wrist and she pulled it away. "Would you stop following me around, I didn't do squat" Eda crossed her arms, the guard grabbed Luz by the hood, "And you're coming too! For fraternizing with a criminal" Luz stammered "what- that's not cool!" She curled up. Eda put her hands up, as if to surrender. "Alright alright you win, just let me grab my stuff," She reached under the stand and grabbed Owlbert whacking the guard in the face, and collected all her things, Elise got up and ran beside Eda. "Come on!" Elise grabbed Luz's arm pulling her along with them. Luz was panting while running, "this is crazy! If I die here my mom is gonna kill me!" Elise laughed, "Well MY mom won't get ya killed…..when I'm around" Eda laughed, "Besides a human like you is much more useful to us alive than dead" Luz looked confused, "wait what's that supposed to mean?-" Elise pulled Luz onto Owlbert with Eda and then she got on Frost, flying beside them. The guard raised his fist to the sky, "You won't get away with this Owl Lady!… yeah alright you did…you got away with it…SHE GOT AWAY WITH IT EVERYBODY…..typical" he hung his head and walked off.

Luz's eyes were closed tightly, tears in the corners of her eyes, "You can open your eyes now human~" Edas voice was sing songy. Elise was lying across Frost as she was flying beside Luz,Eda and Owlbert. Luz looked down and panicked flipping upside down and clining into Owlbert. "Flying Staffs, Crazy Monsters! YOU'RE a witch! What IS this place" As she was talking Eda lifted her back upright on the staff. "This is the Boiling Isles!" Eda started "Every myth you humans have ever had was caused by a little bit of our world slipping into yours" A griffin flew up next to them, Luz brightened up, "A griffin!" It screeched as spiders flew from it's mouth, "I KNEW IT" Eda smiled, "Yep! Griffins,Vampires…." "Giraffes" Elise added. Luz tilted her head, "Giraffes?" Eda nodded, "oh yeah we banished those weirdos" Elise laughed. "Long necked Pony monsters those things" As they landed Elise hopped off of Frost and brushed herself off. Luz immediately did not want to be on the Boiling Isles, but Eda insisted she do something for them before she let her go home. …………..

She loved King when they got introduced. I mean who wouldn't, he's a cute little demon. The task that Eda had Luz help with was retrieving Kings almighty crown of power. The plan went sneak into the conformatorium and get the crown then dip, sounds easy enough right? Wrong, It started out on plan and kinda ended ….well it ended fine but not so much as planned, I mean right now Elise was holding her mom's severed head as the guy who had cut off her head AND steal Kings crown. Not to mention sending all his guards after them, was asking her out. "Ew dude kinda creepy," Elise gagged a little. Luz looked so disgusted, "I literally hate everything you are saying right now" "You stay out of this!" Warden Wrath held both Elise and Luz up.

"Then you gathered a group of…..weirdos? You said Luz….and that's how you saved us today?" Luz nodded "yep!" Elise giggled a little, "Well….guess it's time to send you home…huh?" Luz nodded, and Eda handed her back her things. Luz looked back over to King, who was still upset Warden Wrath destroyed his paper crown. "I know it's not much but…a king shouldn't be without a crown" she placed a tiny plastic crown on Kings head. "this …shall suffice" Elise smiled sadly at Luz and gave her a hug. "It was nice to meet you Luz" "It was good to meet you too Lise" Eda smiled at the two girls. As Luz was about to leave she paused. Had a whole monologue about wanting to stay, Elise of course was so excited to have someone new in the house, by the time night fell, Elise Luz and King were all snuggled in the ground on too of a sleeping bag. Eda walked past the room and smiled slightly, before heading off to bed herself.

Desert Blue

Director Morgan J Freeman Stars Brendan Sexton III, Kate Hudson, Christina Ricci, Ethan Suplee, Casey Affleck USA 1998 Language English 1hr 30mins Colour

Kids kill time in the middle of nowhere, fame looms for a couple of them

[Minor spoilers for this and a Wes Anderson movie]

American Graffiti … Diner …  Dazed And Confused … Desert Blue? … Short Term 12. I mean, no, that’s not actually a sequence, and yet it sort of could have been. Unlike Graffiti, Diner and D&C, this is not a much-loved classic that was also the calling card for a generation of actors. Nor is it Short Term 12, a film that’s maybe more admired than endlessly rewatched but certainly did an astonishing job of talent-spotting. But this low-key comedy-drama about teens in tiny desert town – made for $2 million – does have an impressive collection of young folk on the rise in 1998. 

Alongside the kids, you’ve got recognisable adults in John Heard, Michael Ironside (actually quite bad here) and Daniel van Bargen, whose name you probably don’t know but was the angry cop or army guy in so many things you’ve seen.

And fitting between the two groups in age is Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, who plays an FBI agent here but seems to be reaching her peak in her fifties, getting an Oscar nomination in 2021, appearing in the new Color Purple last year – when she was also great in Justified: City Primeval – and starring in Origin, which as out in cinemas as I write this.  (Oh, yeah, and Sara Gilbert's in this too.)

While I was watching Desert Blue again, I had a nagging memory of something I had seen not long ago. A bunch of young people quarantined in tiny place in the desert that only survives because of a tourist attraction… ah! It's Asteroid City, isn't it? Parts of the set-up are quite similar, although everything else isn’t. 

In Desert Blue, the kids are largely locals: Blue (Brendan Sexton III), who is stubbornly working on his late father’s bizarre project of a water park in the arid landscape, Ely (Christina Ricci), who likes blowing stuff up, Kepler (Casey Affleck), who races quad bikes (they all ride them though), Cale (Ethan Suplee), who wants to be a sheriff even though all his mates are the ones the authorities harass, and Haley (Isidra Vega), who works in the town’s only shop. 

Then, one day, into town comes Skye (Kate Hudson), who is apparently a TV star but none of them has heard of her because cable hasn’t reached there yet. She’s reluctantly on a tour of roadside attractions with her dad (John Heard), who is a cultural studies academic.Skye just wants to get out of this dusty nowhere as quickly as possible, but – of course – events will conspire to keep her and her dad there long enough to interact with the locals. 

In my memory, this was a film in which very little happened, in a pleasurable way. Rewatching it, it turns out to be a movie in which it feels like nothing is happening even though there are at least five events that would be extremely dramatic if they took place in your life and which would be played up in most fiction. Here, though, because they seem to have minimal consequences, it’s like they barely happened. And that’s why the lingering memory is kids buzzing around on their quad bikes or sitting around a fire drinking, rather than (eg) committing a felony. 

Kate Hudson is well-cast as the Hollywood princess descending on this grubby place. Christina Ricci is prime 1998 Christina Ricci – her mates all have pretty nondescript looks (apart from Affleck’s occasional headgear) but she’s of course goth. And exploding shit. Sexton is kind of… unobjectionable… but not very interesting as the heart of the story. Casey Affleck and Michael Ironside are surprisingly rubbish. 

So who were these people at this point in history? Let me reiterate Kate Hudson is the female lead in this film, that she plays the character whose appearance is pivotal. And then tell you that this is her first credited role in a movie (she’s apparently a carol singer in Home Alone.) Maybe she’d done some TV? Two episodes of EZ Streets, whatever that was, and one of Party Of Five. On the other hand, of course, her mother and step-father were huge movie stars. Her break-through role in Almost Famous was two years away. 

Ricci, on the other hand, was in some ways at the peak of her career, a veteran at the age of 18. She’d got off to a big start in 1990 Mermaids with Cher and Winona Ryder and then memorably played Wednesday Addams (still, it seems, a star-making role these days)   in The Addams Family and Addams Family Values. Through the 1990s she balanced kids movies (Casper) with not-kids stuff (Bastard Out Of Carolina) until ’97 and Ang Lee’s massively acclaimed The Ice Storm. With the Wednesday Addams attitude intact but now in her late teens when it played differently, she became the embodiment of stroppy youth. 

She was in six movies with 1998 release dates, not including the voice she did for the very enjoyable Small Soldiers. Desert Blue is probably the fifth most high-profile of these – I know nothing about I Woke Up Early The Day I Died, in which she is credited just as ‘Teenage Hooker’. She’s the lead in The Opposite Of Sex, which got some buzz – I hated it. She’s got a small but notable role in Terry Gilliam’s Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas. I can’t remember her particularly in John Waters’ Pecker, but I liked the movie and she was an obvious fit for a Waters film. And she’s in Buffalo ’66, more thoughts on which you can find here. 

And then… well, a long working career but (to use a semi-obsolete way of looking at these things) at no later point would you have put her on the cover of a magazine. A lot  of that, I think, is to do with a persona that Hollywood endorses in teenage girls but judges unappealing in adult women. Rather than working out what next to do with Ricci, they went looking for newer versions of the same thing. Indeed, Thora Birch – two years younger and Ricci’s co-star in Now And Then – seemed to have slotted into being the ‘next Christina Ricci’ as early as 1999! And then gone on to have a similar career – she’s in a bunch of stuff, but mostly I haven’t even heard of it. (Although she was in The Last Black Man In San Francisco, but I guess I didn’t recognise her in that.)

Finally, Casey Affleck – like Hudson, he was more famous for who was related to than for his own work, especially as the film he was in right before Desert Blue was Good Will Hunting. (To non-cinema bores, he probably still is essentially ‘Ben’s brother’ to this day.) Worth pointing out, maybe, that he was the first of the Affleck-Damon clique to work with Gus Van Sant (in To Die For). His rise was more of a slow-burn, though. 

So does Desert Blue deserve to be better remembered? Not necessarily, but it’s a film I remain reasonably fond of – it’s a film about people hanging out, and it lets you hang out with them. It’s very low key, very of its moment and if you like a 1990s teen indie movie where even when stuff blows up it’s no big deal, then this could be for you.
