that’s written for lovely @violetsdicaprio i don’t know if that’s what you wanted but it was so fun to write, i hope you like it. send your asks, i can’t wait to write more. ily <3
p.s.: the idea is from how i met your mother’s ‘drumroll, please’ episode. 1x13
Tumblr media
You stared at the counter and tried to ignore the crowd and the noise around you. People were drinking and dancing like they were crazy. Your friends started to do the same, unlike you. You never were a party girl in the past and now you felt like you didn’t fit in. It felt wrong to you, leaving everything behind and trying to act like people you weren’t. To be honest, you felt the same in the country. You were used to country life but it never made you really happy. Something felt missing all the time. You didn’t have a purpose in life.
You were born and grew up in the country, being a normal country girl; helping your parents, going to church every Sunday and always obeying the rules. You were the girl every family wanted; a normal, well-adjusted child. It felt right at first but then you realised it wasn’t who you are. You didn’t know who you are or who you wanted to be. All you wanted was live a good life and be with the people who really understood you. Your friends were good people, but they didn’t have a clue about what was going inside of your head. 
You were trying to understand yourself and then, the wall street crashed and the hard times started. Your parents weren’t able to look after you so they gave you a little amount of money and sent you to Small Heath to find a job and earn a living wage. Your friends did the same and there you were, staying in a hostel together and looking for jobs. It was your third day when one of your friends told you about a party in a pub and most of you wanted to go. You didn’t want but you accepted, maybe you needed some time to let it all hang out.
‘What can I get ya, love?’ The soft voice brought you down the earth and you raised your head, looking to the owner of the voice. He was on the other side of the counter, watching you with his colourful eyes. Soon you noticed they were green, he was grinning slightly now. ‘Thanks, I don’t drink much.’ You replied and turned your head to the stage to throw a look at your friends who were still dancing. He noticed where you were looking, ‘A dance, then?’ 
You looked back at him and he arched an eyebrow, ‘Don’t tell me you don’t dance, too.' You couldn’t help but smile a little, and of course, it didn’t escape from his notice. ‘I take that as a yes. So, tell me. What is it that you do?’ This time you glanced away, ‘Actually, I don’t know.’ Now he was more curious than before, ‘Just a dance, maybe I can help you find out.’ You opened your mouth to reject again but there he was, near you and offering you a hand. 
A deep breath helped you before accepting his hand and letting him drag you to the dancefloor. His hands were on your waist and you found your arms around his neck, swaying slowly with the music. ‘You’re new here, ain't ya?’’ He asked and you looked away, thinking of an answer. ‘I have a rule, I don’t sleep with people I met at parties.’ He gave you a questioning look and you spoke again, ‘So the thing that always screws it up is the next day, right? Why don’t we just cut that part out?’
‘What are you saying?’
‘I’m saying I'm here, you’re here. This is a nice big party. Why don’t we just dance and have a great time and then when it’s over, never see each other again?’
‘Unless...’
‘No, no unless. We won’t try to find each other, no addresses, no numbers, not even names. Tonight, we will make a memory that will never be tarnished.’ You said and he smiled at the idea. He considered your words for a while, it was strange but in a good way... ‘I’m in.’ He blurted out and you smiled, ‘Who are you? Find yourself a name.’ You asked, still looking into his eyes.
‘Felix, I’m the bartender. It’s just me here, in Small Heath. I pour drinks to people all day and listen to them. I’ll buy me a car and travel the world. Who are you?’ You smiled softly and thought a little. 
‘I’m Buttercup, and I’m a painter. I came all the road from Vienna to find inspiration. I’m with my artist friends and we want to have fun here. I want to fall in love and go to nice cafes, drawing simple sketches of my lover.’ He smiled at the idea, ‘Want to join me on my journey?’ You pretended like you were thinking, ‘Hmm, are we going to drink coffee and eat desserts?’ He looked at you, ‘Well, maybe we can manage that. Would you paint me?’ 
‘I’d love that but I’ll need a lot of colours, for your hair and eyes. Oh, and for your freckles, you know. They’re not visible from far but...’ You took a step closer, ‘when you’re that close, they’re here and they’re cute.’ 
‘Do you think it’d take a lot of time to paint?’ You nodded, ‘Weeks, maybe. Would you wait?’ 
‘Yes, of course.’ 
‘Oii Finn! When did ya find this pretty girl?’ A young man shouted and he cursed under his breath, ‘Fuck off, Isaiah!’ You laughed, ‘Nice to meet you, Finn. It’s y/n, but no last names.’ He nodded and smiled, ‘y/n, then. Do you want to get away from this party and go somewhere more private?’ You accepted his offer and he held your hand, leading the way. It was a private room in the pub, he grabbed two glasses and a champagne bottle from the bar. ‘You can make a little exception tonight.’ 
Finn popped up the bottle and filled the glasses, turned to you. ‘What do you want to do? No, don’t think. Tell the first thing that comes to your mind.’ You smiled and handed him your glass, then looked down at your foot and took off your high heels. ‘Now I can impress you with some moves. Watch.’ You started to dance to the music and he laughed, watching you. After about ten minutes you stopped and sat next to him, sipping the champagne and giggling, ‘You know, I actually don’t know how to tap dance.’
‘Oh, I didn’t even get it.’ He said and you both laughed this time. Finn’s face was so close to yours and he moved closer, you turned your head, ‘No, we’re not gonna kiss tonight.’ He sighed and asked why, ‘Because if we kiss, all of this becomes real.’ You waited for a moment then looked at him, smiling warmly and spoke again, ‘Okay, how about this? The best part of any first kiss is the lead up to it. The moment right before the lips touch. it’s like a big drum roll. So, how about tonight we just stick with the drum roll?’
Finn stood up and helped you do the same and he pulled your body to himself, dancing slowly again. You took that as a yes and leaned in closer, your cheeks were touching now and you both closed your eyes, ‘Look,’ You whispered, ‘Can you feel it, too? The warmth. Isn’t it better than a kiss?’ You rested your head on his shoulder as he embraced your small frame. ‘All we have is this now, only this. The moment.’ He opened his eyes slowly, ‘I feel it, y/n.’ You looked up at him and your lips nearly touched again.
The night went on and you continued to dance slowly, sharing small moments. Finn spoke after a while, ‘You know, there’s one little flaw in our plan.’
‘What’s that?’
‘I’m gonna go home tonight with a lot of great memories, and one awful memory. The memory of you walking out that door.’ You saw the sadness in his eyes but you also knew you couldn’t do that, even how much you want it badly.
‘Hey, Finn. Close your eyes and count to seven.’ He did as you said so and closed his beautiful green eyes, ‘One.’ You looked at him for one last time and stepped back, ‘Two.’ You walked and grabbed your high heels, opening the door slowly. ‘Three.’ You got out and closed the door, trying not to make a noise. ‘Four.’ Your friends were there, you walked to them. ‘Five.’ 
‘Hey, you know I have to be at work in the morning. I’m heading to the hostel.’ 
‘Six.’ You left the pub, walking away as fast as you could. 
‘Seven.’ Finn opened his eyes and looked at the empty room, you were nowhere to be seen. He realised what you did and he felt different, he felt like Aberama was trying to take the bullet from his arm again. But he felt the pain in his body that time, now he was feeling it in his heart.

Pairing: Finn Shelby x Reader
Author’s note: Finn really needs to stop being a smol bean.
Summary: Finn wakes up in your bed after a night of drinking, and in which he blushes no less than three (3) times. (681 words)
Warnings: mentions of alcohol, fluff
Tags: Let me know if you want to be added or removed
@rrtxcmt, @whizzbeesdukes
******************
Sunlight streams through your window, casting a bright light on the young man currently passed out in your bed. He does not stir when you poke his cheek, nor does he move when you try to tickle under his arms. Even a kiss on the lips does not wake him from his slumber.
In this respect, Finn Shelby is no better than a fairy tale princess.
“Oh, Fin-n” You whisper in a sing-songy voice.
“Wake up, sleepyhead.” No response.
How can anyone be so dead to the world? “If you don’t wake up now, I won’t go on that date with you tonight.”
When even that does not rouse him, you bring out your ultimate weapon. Delicately pinching his nose, you try not to giggle. And before long Finn is tossing his head. Blue eyes fly open in surprise as his mouth gasps for air. The complete befuddled look on his face makes you erupt in laughter. Finn tries to scowl at you, but instead grimaces in pain as he raises a hand to his forehead.
“Jesus, how the hell did I get here?”
“Isaiah carried you here last night. You were royally sloshed, Finny. Pol would've had a fit if she saw you like that, so you slept the night.”
“Jesus.” He says again, reddening when he looks down and sees his own undressed state. “Oh God, did I-- We didn’t--?”
“I’m afraid you weren’t very sexy as you were puking into my flower pot, so no, we didn’t. Although,” You say as you hand him a glass of water, “You couldn't keep your hands off of me.”
“Yeah, but that’s most days.” He grins as he accepts the glass gratefully.
“You did say some quite interesting things after you were done puking, though.” You say.
“Oh yeah?”
“Oh, yes. Very interesting things.”
Finn looks up at you warily. “Like what?”
“Goodness, I wonder where to start…”
With a yelp of surprise you are pulled down onto the bed, bouncing before being tackled by Finn, who growls like a puppy. You scream as he begins to tickle you, until tears are streaming from your eyes.
"Alright, alright! I'll tell you." You gasp out. Finn stops the attack and hugs you with his slender arms, skin warm all over from the sun.
“You told me I was pretty, and that I get your knickers in a twist. You said that when I kissed you for the first time beneath the cherry tree, you walked around a hard-on for the rest of the day.”
Finn turns bright red and covers his face with his hands. Struggling to keep a straight voice you continue.
“You said sometimes you like watching me sleep. And you think it’s funny when I drool. Which you do too, I’ll have you know.” You turn to face him, jabbing a finger to his chest.
“You’re afraid I’d leave you for Isiah one day because he makes me laugh. And sometimes you’re too shy to tell me how you feel... Honestly Finn, I don’t know why it took you to be pissed-drunk to tell me these things. You know I’m always here for you. And,” You snuggle into him, “You're the one I love.”
He twitches and coughs a little before answering, “I-I love you too.” You don't need to look up to know he is still blushing to the tips of his auburn hair.
“I know.” You hum with contentment.
“Well, maybe. But I’ve never told you out loud. Neither of us have.”
“You did last night while you were laying in my lap. Though in retrospect it probably doesn’t count, because you were absolutely wasted... Seems like your guts weren't the only things you spilled yesterday.”
Finn sighs, rubbing his head.
“First time I say 'I love you' and I don't bloody remember... I'm never drinking with Isiah, ever again.” He says solemnly.
“On the contrary, you should go out with him more. That way I can hear more interesting things from drunk Finny.” You smile, kissing him on his freckled lips.

Burrito’s Guide To Survive Coronavirus Quarantine
We got to keep social distance (1 or 2 meters each other) or stay home during coronavirus outbreak so I thought I can share with y’all some things I’m gonna watch or do doing quarantine (this is a very long post, REBLOGS ARE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!).
BUT FIRST SOME RULES:
Wash your hands: do it for 20 seconds or a while, but ALWAYS do it. It prevents the virus from spreading. If you don’t have sanitizer, water and soap! The cheapest and best ally against the disease.
Buy everything you need: if you can, try to buy stuff so you can stay some days at home. If the place is crowded, go back home and come later when it’s more empty. Same as medicine.
You can go for a walk: stay at home all day can be overwhelming for your mental health, but unless the goverment puts a curfew or gets strict about it you can go walk outside for a while always respecting the 1 or 2 meters from other people and without making contact (chatting) with other people. This ain’t my rule, a CDC professional says. DON’T go visit your friends or to crowded places such as bars, restaurants, shoppings, etc. If you want to buy something, ask for delivery or take away.
If you have coronavirus sympthoms (high fever, diarrhea, cough, feeling tired, breath difficulties) DON’T GO TO THE HOSPITAL YET, CALL TO YOUR PUBLIC HEALTH ORGANISATION OR WHATEVER YOU GOT AND THEY’LL TREAT YOU.
Tumblr media
(credits to whoever made this meme)
SO YOUR LIFE IS ON QUARANTINE
Let’s say your boss or your school told you can stay at home. Okay then, you gotta prepare for some days inside *Isolation by John Lennon plays in the distance*. The first thing you think is you have to prepare a batch of series and movies to watch in order to kill some time. I’m gonna recommend you some you can find on VOD or cable, if you don’t have it don’t worry because I got you covered!
Infinity Train: a yet two seasons saga about people who got to face their problems aboard an endless train. The protagonists are joined by creatures who have different nature and help them, or not, to acknowledge their issues and leave the train. It’s on CN, it will continue on HBO Max.
Tumblr media
The Owl House: a teen girl who daydream a lot was going to be sent to a down-to-earth camp but then she crosses a portal to the Boiling Isles, a magical world where she is taken care by a powerful Owl witch/saleswoman and her adorable demon. Lots of fantasy, some action scenes and many many puns. It’s on Disney Channel, it’ll be on Disney+ in some weeks.
Primal: Genndy Tartakovsky delighted us with the alliance of a caveman and a dinosaur, two rivals in a wild world who ally after facing a devastating event. It IS brutal and beatiful, has no dialogue and keeps you watching closely. Five final episodes are set to premiere this year. It’s on Adult Swim, maybe on HBO Max.
Tuca and Bertie: for the critics, one of 2019 best shows. For Netflix, a show that had to be cut off because the studio unionized. Two friends in their late 20s face changes in their lives: from living with a boyfriend and plan a life to look a way to stay sober and get a job. Deals with trauma, ptsd, anxiety and more harsh moments very well. In fact, the creator is a vital part of Bojack Horseman! It’s on Netflix.
Tumblr media
Aggretsuko: red pandas are cute eh? But what about a antopomorphic red panda who releases her anger and frustrations by singing at a karaoke? This awesome comedy by Sanrio & Netflix is one of anime’s big hits lately. Like T&B, has a good handle of adult problems but not going too deep just to not break the comedy. You can watch it on Netflix.
Regular Show: yeah-uuuuhhhh! Eight seasons, a movie, five Halloween specials and some others. The adventures of a racoon and a blue jay with their co-workers/friends that relies on psychadellia and 80s and 90s nostalgia. It begins good, gets better, then lowers the quality (they were producing the movie at the same time tho, give some credit) and with and after the movie ends awesome. It’s on CN web, dunno if on Hulu (US only) and proably on HBO Max.
Tumblr media
Evangelion: it’s a classic at this point, but addictive to me because I end rewatching the series or the final movie many times. A post apocalyptic future where the world has to deal with strange creatures known as the Angels and a boy with lots of traumas has to get on a mecha to save the humankind. All the characters have traumas and issues, the interaction between them or the action makes it worth. The End of Evangelion is a movie that ends the unfinished series. Warning: at some point it becomes very twisted and there are scenes which are too much violent. Viewer disclosure etc. It’s on Netflix worldwide.
Steven Universe & SU Future: this is the tale of the gem boy who ends a galactical tyranny and brings democracy to the universe. A acclaimed show that broke through many topics like gender, identity, ptsd, relationships and many more. Besides it’s got the best scores of the Milky Way and beyond thanks to the talent of Rebecca Sugar, Aivi Tran and Surasshu. And the actors and acrtresses! I don’t forget the movie, a musical that is an introduction to the epilogue: Shippuden Future. The show is available on CN and will be on HBO Max. Worldwide? No news.
Tumblr media
Adventure Time: something that began as an innocent boy and a magical dog having adventures in a post apocalyptic world turns into the journey of Finn Metens from childhood to almost adulthood. There is a lot of fantasy and comedy you enjoy, but there are dark moments and serious ones through S6 that find a balance with early seasons form S7 to the finale. It also has great music, memorable moments and colaborations. And guess what? There is going to be a special set to premiere on HBO Max in some weeks! You got plenty of time to catch up or rewatch before that on CN or only (!!) S5 on Netflix.
Final Space: a dude tries to save the universe with their friends, where we can find his love interest, a cat-man and his kitten son, a intersexual alien, an AI then robot that is the best of them, two particular siblings and an annoying bot that prevents insanity that makes you insane. Crazy adventures in space, lots of situations, sadness, an evil smol bean who is a space emperor, a dude who looks for revenge, space deities that can destroy the universe. Is this a lot or info? It is not, because there is more and you can watch it on TBS, Adult Swim and Netflix (the world except US).
Rick and Morty: the most powerful, smartest human in the universe has adventures with his grandson. It’s awesome, but has a very toxic fanbase. Anyway, you can enjoy it on Adult Swim or Netflix (which is up to date!) and the rest of S4 is set someday.
Bojack Horseman: a Hollywood satire about human relationships, fame, traumas with a pour of comedy. Alongside the previous series, the best adult animation of the decade. Sadly cut by Netflix because the studio unionized (see T&B), said by both the creator and Aaron Paul. You can watch the six amazing seasons on that platform.
I’m not an animated movies guy, but here are three I really like and you can watch:
Porco Rosso: a handsome Italian combat aviator turned magically to a pig has a face off with an American pilot hired by pirates to get rid of him before WWII in Fascist Italy. It’s entertaining and, like every Ghibli movie, nice to watch. It’s on Netflix and will be on HBO Max for US.
Tumblr media
Lego Batman Movie: Batman is depressed and has to get over it. It’s wacky and has lots of comedy. Plus Will Arnett is top 3 Batman. On Netflix (Latinamerica).
Spiderverse: Oscar winner movie about your friendly neighbour Peter Parker Miles Morales. Miles sees Spiderman die and feels bad after being transfered to a private school. Then a radioactive spider from a Fisk compound bites Miles and he’s Spiderman... among other dimensions’ Spiderpeople: Gwen, Peni, Peter Parker, Noir and Peter Porker. It’s visually amazing. On US it’s on Netflix (I guess), on Latinamerica on HBO.
Some interesting live actions I watched lately
Atlanta: Donald Glover is Earn, a dude who struggles to find a job for her baby girld and sees an opportunity when his cousin, Paper Boi, has a hit and uses him to make his cos famous. Sometimes a comedy, sometimes a social satire with touches of drama. And all protagonists are now big shots, like Zazie Beetz, Brian Tyree Henry or Lakeith Stanfield. There are two seasons and two seasons set for 2021 (2022 possible beacuse of coronavirus). It’s on FX, Hulu (US) and Netflix (world)
Avenue 5: this is brand new. On 2060 space cruises are a thing, and one cruise (the Avenue 5) has an accident that leaves the crew and passangers stranded for years. The captain (Hugh Laurie) has to solve this shit with a bunch of incompetent crew, bosses like Judd (Josh Gad), except one female engeneer who is very smart. Lots of crazy things happen in this series from the creator behind Veep. It’s on HBO (it’s free in the US!).
Peaky Blinders: it has some years but damn it’s epic. A gang from Birmingham makes their way to the top during the late 1910s after the Great War and extends through the 1920s. S5 is right in the ascension of fascism in Britain. ALL THE CAST acts spectacular, names like Cillian Murphy, Tom Hardy, Anna Taylor-Joy and a long etc. But my fave is Paul Anderson, that ultra violent junkie Arthur Shelby is splendid, then is Tommy and aunt Pol, the baddest badass woman in Britain. Blinders is going to have seven seasons, there are two left. You can watch it on BBC or Netflix.
Tumblr media
Sex Education: speaking of Britain, excellent teen comedy. Horny, doubtful teenagers going through those hard years. Stories of sex (duh!), abuse situations, abortion, there are gay relationships either, Gillian Anderson! It’s on Netflix, go go go!
Watchmen: despite not having Alan Moore on board, Damien Lindeloff did a tremendous job with the comic. Way better and less misleading than Zack Snyder’s 2009 film, Watchmen is again at the gates of the world’s end (like today) and handles the problem of racism and white supremacy quite well. Just 9 episodes, but worth to watch. On HBO.
CAOS: Sabrina the Teenage Witch is over. Warner and Netflix made a revival of the Archie Comics character and brought her to XXI Century. But gorier, hornier, dark and magical than the nice 90s sitcom. Sabrina Spellman goes from a doubtful teen who has to decide if she has to be a witch or a powerless woman to rule Hell. How she does it? Find out on Netflix! Note: S1 and 2 take some episodes to start properly. Don’t get bored too easy.
There are A LOT MORE to recommend and I make a list: Harley Quinn (DC Universe), OK KO (Hulu -US only-), House MD, Young Justice (DC Universe/Netflix), Ken Burns’ documentaries (Netflix), Titans (DCU), Over The Garden Wall (CN), Seis Manos (Netflix), Thundercats Roar (CN), Easy (Netflix), GLOW (Netflix), Star Trek Discovery (CBS, Netflix) and Picard (CBS, Amazon Prime), etc.
- You named cool shows, but I’m not from the United States or I don’t have a subscription to (insert VOD here) because I can’t afford it
- Glad you asked, I have the answer here
Introducing Stremio. It’s an open source platform where you can watch shows, movies or even live TV on Windows, Linux, Apple or Android. You create an account, install some addons and start looking for what you want to watch.
Tumblr media
Stremio is based on torrents, you should install addons from many known torrent sites. So maybe you find an old show, but there aren’t many seeds to watch. And it could be frustraiting, so make sure there are people sharing so you can watch it.
You can download Stremio here and check the FAQs which is very clear.
NOTE: Stremio is note quite “clean” way to watch, but if you do please support the shows you watch by posting, commenting about them, making memes, thanking the creators and crew for their work, buying merchandise if you can. They put a lot to make the shows we love, let’s give ‘em back that love and effort.
Tumblr media
You’re tired of the same music, the same movies or need to leave something to make company? There is Vaughn Live, a streaming page where are lots of channels with movies and series on strem (not VOD). For example, there is a channel that streams Adventure Time, other Regular Show, other Sci-Fi shows, another with DBZ and so on. Take in count that if the channel has +70 viewers, the free access is cut and if you want to watch it you have to pay.
En Vaughn también hay canales en español, como Simpsonmanía, Dragon Ball, Futurama, dibujos viejos y muchísimo más. Anyway, go to https://vaughn.live/ and enjoy yourselves!
Y hablando de canales en español, pueden ir a SeriesLan donde está el mayor reservorio conocido de series animadas de entre 1960 a 2010 en español latino. Pueden encontrar tesoros desde Don Gato, los Halcones Galácticos o Street Sharks a Flapjack y Mechas XLR. Otra alternativa para que pasen el rato.
Some interesting facts:
Epic Games releases a free game per week in their store. This week will be two games. You can check in https://www.epicgames.com
Steam has good prices on games and some free ones. There even is the latest Football Manager for free until March 25th. Check on https://store.steampowered.com/
If you’re interested,
I got this playlist I made on Spotify
with songs I liked in more than one year. More than 1200 songs.
And that’s pretty much it! You got resources for a lot of days, 14 initially since that’s the quarantine time in my country. Remember: obey the indications of the Health authorities, this is no time to play the “fuck the goverment” game. We will overcome this pandemy together, helping and caring for each other. That’s why I did this guide, to keep your minds busy in these tough times! Wash your hands, keep social distance, stay at home, go outside if necessary and have some patience please. This has been a PSA.
Stay strong!
