Did you notice that when Emma comes back to the lodge while everyone else (minus Jacob) is at the cabins/radio hut/poolhouse, she calls multiple times for Ryan, Abi, and Kaitlyn, but doesn't once call for Dylan or Nick?

Yes I HAVE noticed that! Partially because my ears perk up at mentions of Dylan like he’s my crush or something lmao. But the omission of the two of them is kind of glaring.

This is SO interesting to me though, I’ve actually thought about it a bit before! It makes sense for her to call for Kaitlyn and Ryan as the de-facto leaders of the group, right? And Abi because they’re besties and possibly secretly in love.

Emma’s a smart girl, maybe she knows that she will find Dylan if she finds Ryan and Nick if she finds Abi because she knows they’re following their crushes around like lovesick puppies. Or maybe she assumes that Dylan and Nick are off doing something useless like getting high and eating picklecicles in the walk-in. But either way, she definitely isn’t looking to either of them to help her out. And who could blame her really? We’ve discussed Nick’s whole… deal. And Dylan has so far likely not proven himself to be capable of more than comedy relief in front of Emma.

She also may be hesitant to even mention Nick if she thinks Abi will hear because, well, that didn’t go great. She doesn’t know Nick is injured either so she’s not thinking to be worried about him.

Thank you for the ask and I’m super interested to hear what others think on this tidbit of counselor relations!

there's. three years difference between these two.

i don't know what being an admiral makes you do but hackett is aging *hard*

have a very thrown together fic of hackett and woods cuddling ⤵️

Hackett couldn’t help but notice how, whenever there were slight lulls in their activity during missions, Woods would consistently be massaging his prosthetic.

This time, he was waiting for Dauda to finish patching up Bishop so they could get moving again. He’d simply sat down on the ground near the door, stared into space, and began flexing his metal hand as he massaged it.

Hackett quietly came over, sitting beside him. Woods apparently took no notice, rocking back and forth slightly as he thoroughly rubbed circles into his palm.

“Whatcha doin’?” Hackett asked, attempting to gauge how zoned out he was. “Woods?”

When he got no response, he took a glove off and snapped to get the other man’s attention. “Hey. Cowboy.”

Woods jumped, just now seeming to process there was a whole other human next to him. “God— What?”

Hackett shook his head, chuckling. “Lala-land your new favorite tourist destination?”

“Shut up,” Woods grumbled, prosthetic fingers twitching. He sucked his teeth in a bit as if he was in pain, flexing his fingers.

“What’s wrong?” Hackett asked, watching his hand.

“Phantom pain,” the American replied. “Stings like hell.”

Hackett casually took his prosthetic, beginning to methodically massage it.

“W…what’re you doing?” Woods asked, taken aback. His whole arm was trembling slightly, as if it was actually flesh and blood.

“Massagin’ it, what’s it look like?” Hackett replied simply. “Is it helpin’?”

Woods stayed quiet for a moment. “Y.. yes, actually.”

Hackett smiled a bit, even if he knew Woods couldn’t see it under his mask. He leaned against him, putting his focus into making a pattern out of how he massaged Woods’ hand. He used one hand to massage the bottom of his palm and the other to massage the tips of his fingers, slowly moving both hands in slow, thorough swirls until they met around his knuckles.

“That… feels nice,” Woods mumbled, voice sounding almost sleepy.

“Don’t fall asleep on me now,” Hackett said, neglecting to admit how relaxing this felt for him as well.

“I’ll do my damnedest,” the American muttered, clearly not trying that hard as his head drooped onto Hackett’s, their masks making a light thudding sound.

Hackett just chuckled, continuing the pattern of massaging he was doing. “Idiot.”

actually started playing The Quarry since a few days ago - I had only watched other people play it before. I’m currently at chapter 7, after the jail escape.

I know I am biased but I just want to say again how amazing Ted is in his role. Travis’ character is quite different from his usual “nerdy” characters, yet he is incredible at it. He is not even a playable character, but yet he is - to me - the most interesting, multi-layered, complex character. And Ted played a huge part in it. The game wonderfully captured every details of his facial expressions, body language, voice intonation and subtle movements. 

I am rambling but I just really wanted to say that Ted deserves every single bit of success and recognition he is getting with this game :’)

Don't be afraid, the crooks are here to save the day

It's okay, the less you know the more the pain

She heard her before she saw her, and long before she saw her, at that. Screaming, crying, hollering, you name it, the sad little thing was doing it, her face shiny with...well hell, that was anyone’s guess, given the rain, but her guess was tears, with snot just as likely.

“My, my,” she said, feeling every inch the big bad wolf that swallowed Red Riding Hood’s granny down as she held the front door open on its creaky hinge and stepped out onto the porch to watch the girl stumble towards her, “now what on earth could have scared you so bad to come runnin’ all the way out here, sweetie pie?”

The girl came to a screeching halt just at the bottom of the porch stairs, and as she braced herself against the rail and tried to form words through her staggered breathing, she got a good look at her: torn-up tights underneath shorts just a little too short for her liking, arms crawling with ugly hack-and-slash tattoos, sopping-wet hair dyed garishly bright...and something that looked an awful lot like a bite bleeding through a rip in her shirt.

“Why don’t you come in out of the rain and tell me all about it?” she asked through what must’ve been just the right smile, because, big teeth and all, the girl had already tripped her way up the first couple of stairs before she noticed the gun.

She’d have the boys take care of the mess she left behind once they were done with the others, Constance Hackett would, and if Chris had shit to say about it once he was back in his skin tomorrow, she’d be all too happy to remind him who the real wolf in the family was.

Have you heard or played this game called "The Quarry"? If so what would Ren be like if he was in that game? I've been hyperfixating over both games and I cant get the crossover out of my mind lol

✦゜ANSWERED: I actually got to play the game with Mon (my (irl) bestie) a while back, and I've had Kaitlyn brainrot ever since uwu

This ask also got long because I have A LOT to say about The Quarry!AU Ren gksdgbjsdgk. Also!! There's going to be spoilers for the actual game! IK it's been out for a while now, but if you ever plan on playing it, maybe skip this ask and come back another time!! <3

Okay!! So! Ren probably told the other councillors that he went to Hackett's Quarry to gain more experience as a music tutor, when in reality, he only joined the stupid program so that he'd get to spend the summer with you.

Would constantly show up to your camp activities with the kids and ask if you needed any help. Mainly because he was free right now and had nothing better to do. (He had to clean the kitchens...)

They would be insanely overprotective of you even if there was no one else around, and it would only get worse if Ren ever gets bitten (read: infected!Nick).

Realistically speaking, the only way Ren could possibly get bitten is by protecting you. Because if he had the choice, this man would literally lock the both of you up in the security room (that he tooootally had no clue about), and would just wait out the night there instead of walking aimlessly around the camp and getting stalked by hunters and werewolves.

I doubt they'd do anything to help the other councillors, and would instead watch them meet their demise through the security cameras.

If you were to witness them meeting their gory demise though, then Ren might put up an act and pretend to care. Maybe press a few buttons and switches in hopes that it'd somehow help them — when in reality, he's just flicking the audio channels on and off.

If you didn't want to camp out in the security room for the entirety of the night, then Ren would be glued to your side and won't ever let you out of his sight.

He'd let you carry the shotgun if it made you feel safer, but wouldn't mind using it himself if you thought that was the better option. Though... he'd probably forget that it was a gun at first and would try to smack the werewolves with the recoil/stock end before realising that, wait, this isn't a sledgehammer? It doesn't work that way?

Ren has seen enough horror movies to be able to put all the (cliché) pieces together, and would probably figure out what was happening by the time you (Abi) push Leon (Nick) into the pool.

Ren would 100% be like, "Oh, they don't like water? Alright then. Cool. C'mon Angel, we're stealing a kayak and sleeping in the middle of the lake tonight ^^ We can look at the stars while we confess our feelings for each other—" "Oh wow MC, you look hot holding a shotgun." "Shut the FUCK up you buff ass RACCOON, I'm having my moment >:(" "Ren, don't be mean to Teo."

If Ren does get infected, then he's just going to be extra clingy and creepy compared to usual. He'd be sniffing you every chance he gets and would try to rub his scent all over you. They'd probably be extra horny because even without being a werewolf, Ren is still very much addicted to your scent.

The real/[REDACTED] side of him would slowly start to surface, and would constantly ask you questions like "who do you love?", "D'you like me?", "No one can protect you like I can.", "You smell s'good. Come closer.", "Need to taste you. Now.", "I want t'be inside you."

Once he fully turns, I'd really like to say that he wouldn't target you simply because his sheer devotion to you would outweigh his animalistic urges. Idk if that's canonically possible in the game, but I'm gonna pretend it is because I can hehe :)

Everyone else is fair game though, especially any of the councillors that got a bit too close to you at the beginning of the season. All the people who tried to be friendly with you? Those who tried to kiss you during that game of Truth or Dare? Yeah, they better start hiding because Ren will be seeking them out.

He probably won't try to interact with you while in his werewolf form because he's afraid of scaring/hurting you, but would instead stalk you around the camp and fend off any other threats that go near your vicinity.

By the time dawn comes, Ren will be seeking you out and ensuring that you're alright. If anyone dared to hurt you while he was occupied with hunting down the other councillors, they'd be dead meat. Especially since they have a shotgun in their possession now :)

I couldn't help myself 🤷‍♀️

[ghostradiodylan]

I really cannot recommend highly enough that you make your own deck of Cards Against Humanity cards (I can never decide if this game should be called Counselors Against Humanity or Cards Against Hacketteers) relevant to your fandom hyperfixations and play with friends.

Edit: I should clarify that I didn’t make these, they were a highly collaborative effort on the server (I helped!) and @electricdecades compiled them all into Massive Decks for us!

[korianderbandit]

Thinking about how the two characters who are (partially) portrayed as not smart (dylan and max) are the first ones to understand the situation (max suggest he's a werewolf, dylan suggesting amputation etc.).... Yeah just thinking....

[evilvvithin]

Yessssss travis hackett brainrot lets gooo

LESSGOO TRAVIS and Ted Raimi THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED

[life-on-the-geek-side]

Au where travis gets bitten but the bite doesnt make him a scary wolf it just gives him big ol wolf ears and a tail and fangs cause he’s such a natural grumpus. He tries to intimidate the other councillors but they end up finding it kinda cute/endearing instead

Laura and max find it hilarious and never let him live it down -especially when laura touches them by accident and he finds out the hard way they’re sensitive when she jokingly scratches them

[dorkwithfeelings]

Hot showers, freshly brewery coffee, under-eye bags. Three things that perfectly described Travis Hackett. A dark horse he was; never letting anyone within the walls he'd built and fortified around himself over the years. You could stare deep into his eyes and still never know a damn thing that man was thinking - totally unreadable.

What was his reason for being so guarded, for always looking as if he carried the world's weight on his shoulders? You didn't know, but you definitely wanted to find out.

It was decided. You would do anything and everything to break those steel walls Travis Hackett hid behind, even if it were the last thing you'd do.

[tedrailmi]

just realized my blog is now 2-month old. So I’ve been logging in here, reblogging and posting almost every day about the same 56-year-old white man for 2 months now.

[queenofbaws]

I’m looking at the attic from chapter 9 for my fic and why is it so fucking big? What it this house of leaves shit?

hey, look, i'm no home design expert, okay, i don't watch a whole lot of hgtv or anything like that, but clearly, cecil, the hacketts NEED an attic that big for all of their

um

uh

*checks smudged writing on hand*

overturned bureaus and...old...newspapers.

hehehehehehe but for REAL that attic is HUGE! hackett house itself is a monster, so i guess it makes sense they'd have a roomy attic, but man oh man. it's like the hacketts of long-long-ago knew that one day that attic would need to be big enough to hold just...the greasiest of flesh dogs.

and lord help me, now you've got me thinking about house of leaves with the hacketts instead of the navidsons and aklsdjflskdjfLKJDFKLSFJ what a different story THAT would be.

"guys, i...i don't want to alarm anyone, but i was patching a wall and...and i think...i think the house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside!!!" "and?" "i - wait, and? what do you mean and?! that's impossible!" "always been that way." "it...oh, it has?" "mhm." "uh. never mind then."

"holy shit i just walked through this door and found myself - " "in the hallway that stretches for five minutes or so. yeah, we've all wound up in there on occasion." "...there WAS a lot of camping gear in there..."

"hey, the floor just ate bobby." "good luck digesting him. that boy is dense."

rip to the navidsons, the house on ash tree lane couldn't handle the hacketts alkdfjklsjdklfjsf
