VICTORIA NEUMAN X ASSISTANT!READER

format: blurb

warnings: nsfw content at the end

word count: 700+

not proofread! y/n used!

- the second you came in for your interview she pretty much decided she was hiring you LMAO

- now i’m not saying she only hired you because of her crush, because your resume genuinely caught her eye, but i’m also not saying it had nothing to do with it 🤷‍♀️

- she definitely asks you to do things she could easily do just as an excuse to see you

- “y/n! can you come here please?”

- “can you pick up this pen i dropped please? i’ve got suchhh a bad back” she’s so dramatic i love her

- you honestly think she’s just being a bitch and she’s messing with you

- that is until one day she comes to you in the morning, saying today she only has one task for you

- “will you eat lunch with me?” and she has the dorkiest smile of all time on her face

- lunch together becomes a regular thing, going from talking about your favourite tv shows to her telling you about her daughter zoe

- she’s so sad when you eventually tell her you thought she was just like every person you’ve ever worked for, just messing with you for the fun of it

- “no no never! i could never do that, especially not to you” OOOOOO it’s blush city for you both

- things are going great! you love your job. that is until something changes, and victoria randomly stops asking you to do things for her

- i mean you’re her assistant, shouldn’t you be getting her coffee? shouldn’t you be organising her files? shouldn’t you be having lunch with her and not hughie?

- to say this has you down is an understatement, you can’t seem to understand why she has randomly shut you out

- it’s not like she’s not speaking to you, she’s still asking you to do things but they’re all tasks that require you to be away from her. you haven’t even been in her office for nearly two weeks now

- after your hurt builds and builds, you can’t hold it in anymore. you storm into her office demanding to know why she’s avoiding you

- she plays it dumb at first but she knows what she’s been doing so she fesses up

- “fuck… i’m sorry, so sorry. it’s not you i promise, it’s me. i- i like you, okay? like a lot and i know it sounds stupid and i know it’s sooo inappropriate because you’re my assist-“ SILENCED BY A KISS WOOOO

- you’re discrete about it at first, sneaking around and making out in the bathroom stalls like you’re high schoolers

- her bringing you lunch everyday<3

- she so leaves post-it notes on her desk with cute lil messages whenever she has to leave for meetings because it’s where she tells you to just relax

- you don’t bother asking why you’re not allowed to meetings that involve voughts CEO, it’s probably just a confidentiality thing right?

- a bit random but whenever you’re standing talking to somebody i feel like she’d just squeeze your butt?

- canon she’s a butt squeezer

- you don’t fight much but oh boy is your schedule full when you do

- she gives you the stupidest tasks she can think of LMAO

- “can you walk someone’s dog please?” “someone’s dog?” “yeah, just go around asking who has a dog that needs walking” “are you being serious, vic?” “yes i most definitely am, it would help me soooo much you have no idea!”

- I LOVE HER SO MUCHHH

- dating your boss can be annoying at times, but you wouldn’t trade it for the world <3

NSFW TIMEEEE

- officesex!officesex!officesex!

- this honestly deserves its own blurb if i'm being honest

- i feel like she's already dominant in bed anyways but because she’s your boss it’s elevated TO THE MAX.

- “i have one really special task for you today, so listen closely”

- you can barely stay stood up with how weak your knees go (real)

- “i need you to be a good girl for me, how does that sound? you think you can do that for me?” in her husky voice im DECEASED

- one time she cleared her desk by pushing everything on the floor, she immediately regretted it when she realised she had broken almost everything

- “i always see people do it in movies and this doesn’t happen” she’s so upset while she’s picking up a broken picture of you both on the beach

- she’s so silly

- she definitely buys you lingerie to wear underneath your work clothes 🤭

- the amount of flirty texts she sends you during the day just to watch you blush uncontrollably is concerning (when is it my turn)

a/n: requests are always open, hope you enjoyed :)

Soooo... what happened to vic? I feel bad for your axe btw, it had to touch that asshole🤷‍♂️

Vic? Oh, I just butchered him and put him for sale as pigs meat, but we do need a new cashier though so that's become a problem to deal with. Why do you care about what happened to him anyway?

Vic's Midpollo/The Authority Rec List

Core Content:

- Stormwatch Vol 2. (issues #4-6) contains Midnighter & Apollo's origin story. It's written by Warren Ellis, and anything written by him is guaranteed to be good. The team they’re part of is blatantly a satirical take on the Justice League and it’s hilarious. While these are the only issues that include Midnighter & Apollo, I definitely recommend Ellis’ entire Stormwatch run (Vol.1 #37-50 & Vol.2 #1-11)–it made me fall in love with Shen & Jenny Sparks more than I already was. 

- The Authority Vol.1 (issues #1-12) was also written by Warren Ellis; this is truly one of my favourite comic books of all time. The character interactions, plot, and art are all fantastic. I started reading this run for Midnighter & Apollo, and by the end I had fallen in love with the entire team; they’re rough-edged and violent without being gratuitous, witty without being corny, and it was fun as hell to read through them slaughtering both interdimensional colonialists and also god. There is unfortunately a villain who is an Evil Chinese Stereotype in the first arc though.

- The Authority Vol.1 (issues #13 & #29) the first & last issue of The Authority written by Mark Millar. It sucks ass but these two issues explain Midnighter & Apollo's adopted daughter (#13) and show them getting married (#29) which is the only reason I'm reccing them in the first place. It’s gratuitously violent without reason, and hurls slurs, homophobia, racism, sexism, and addiction at its readers for no reason other than shock value. 

- The Authority Vol.2 (issues #0-9, #11-13) Issues 0-9 are an absolute blast, both the art style & tone were more in line with Ellis' run than Milars, and we get a call-back to the first arc of The Authority Vol.1 which I thought was pretty cool. Issues 10-13 take place after a 4-issue mini-series (Coup d'État) that culminates in The Authority ousting the president of the US, which I didn't read bc I had no desire to. Issue 10 is a direct follow-up to that arc, but it's rarely mentioned throughout issues 11-13 which is why I kept them. There were definitely parts of Vol.2 that I wasn't fond of, but the good far outweighs the bad in my opinion.

- The Authority: Revolution (issues #1-12) starts with The Authority dealing with the consequences of taking over the USA in Coup d'État, and it still made sense despite the fact I never read that arc. I was slow to get into it, but by the end I was flipping pages as fast as I could read them. The first few issues set up some interesting ideas and it follows through in knocking them down in a satisfying way. Their fight against the Big Bad felt a little too clean-cut in my opinion, but issue #11 has some amazingly angsty midpollo content.

- The Authority Vol.4 (issues #1-17) takes place after a crossover event spanning 3 mini-series between the biggest Wildstorm properties, but all you need to know is this: it's the apocalypse. While Midnighter and Apollo are separated by circumstance, it makes the issues where they appear together all the more impactful in my opinion. The original Authority run by Ellis will always be my favourite, but this run is definitely second place. The series wraps up nicely on a beautiful and hopeful note, and while there were still a few loose threads, this is definitely one of the better comic series ends I've read.

One-Shots & Miniseries:

- Planetary/The Authority: Ruling the World is a one-shot crossover event. It’s a pretty fun read, minus the fact that H.P. Lovecraft makes an appearance.

- Wildstorm Winter Special 2005: Two Dangerous Ideas is a funny little one-shot where Midnighter and Apollo meet their alternate-reality counterparts: Daylighter and Pluto. Hilarity ensues. 

- The Authority: Human on the Inside (miniseries) the plot makes no damn sense but Midnighter & Apollo have some really cute interactions in this and the art is soooo pretty.

- Lobo/The Authority: Jingle Hell the art is an... interesting choice and the writing is a rude, crude riot. I found this in my local comic shop's dollar bin and while it definitely belongs there, I do not regret buying it.

For the love of all that is good and gay please do not read Stormwatch Vol.3 it was part of the New 52 relaunch and reading it caused me psychic damage. 

And feel free to drop me a message if you have any questions!

[aethersflames]

weeeeh so I finally plucked up the courage to reveal the true identity of H to some of my friends in discord, it actually wasn't that bad

not sure if I am ready to here yet, tho, for various reasons

I still need to work on my s/i design for him, (optional: draw Sera and other stuff more before such, this is NOT becoming a 40k blog), and also bc I know there's a handful of other ppl who selfship with him and are probs not comfortable sharing (on my end of things, myself am fine with sharing him unlike Vic)

soooo yeh -w-

[feruiis]

new blog so intro!

hihi im vic

lowest weight was 150 and i wanna get back there soooo bad, bc of my proportions i looked way skinnier than 150 she was so cute n seggsy

current weight is embarrassing and nightmare fuel

im also 24 so i need more older friends with eds ⭐️🫶🏻

[alvadee]

i read some entries in julie newmar's blog/public diary (which she abandoned two years ago) and i'm soooo tempted to write to her email and ask about Vic and Seduction of a Nerd. but idk i would feel bad to contact and bother a 89-year-old about something that silly but i also need to make my mind up because who knows how long she's still here.

[winderlylandchime]

*points to tv* ‘look its Justin and Brian. Dude, it’s early morning and he’s going to the baths? LOOK AT THEM KISSING GOODBYE! Did you see that cute shit! Adorable. Oh Brian..you can find hotter places to fuck at than this dump..JEN! THATS MY BABY JEN! WHAT IS GOING ON? this is his office? FINALLY I AM GETTING MY BUDDY EPISODE! Aw he took a picture of Jen, why the fuck didn’t it show it? I wanna see my girl! My two favorite people being best friends! I am so happy!’ ‘Ted IS A SINGER! Oh as a waiter? *smacks his chest with his fist* respect! Been there, done that, tough shit. *pauses tv and looks at me* Did you know when i first started as a waiter, i didnt know what cappuccino is made of so when people ordered it, i told them we ran out of it. I got fired 4 days later’ ‘i feel bad for Emmett. I get they want to support him but Emy also needs support. Damn it this is bad. But i also *takes a deep breath* feel bad for Mike.’ ‘AWWW Vic and Rodney are gonna live together! Finally Vic gets something more in his life than just hiv and sister. GOOD FOR YOU VICKY BOY! LIVE THAT LONG HAPPY LIFE BABY!’ ‘How in the holy hell, did they convince Brian to go to this restaurant. Id get if Justin was there but he isnt, so HOW? Oh he came along to laugh. Okay, makes sense’ the scene where Pink Posse walks down the street is up and he paused the tv and started laughing. I did not expect him to have these reactions. ‘They look like a gay boyband. Backstreet Gays. Look at them on their way to fight people with their pink shirts. I am trying so hard to be chill with this but what is this? They look like a low budget cult. (The car/fight scene happens) Justin.. violence for violence is not cute. Nothing about this is cute. I am trying to get it cause of prom but WHY IS THIS HAPPENING NOW?’ ‘Look at Brian once again waiting for him. Is he late? A vigilante with a curfew. Thats new. Soooo he’s now hopped up on adrenaline ready to fuck. Cool cool cool. Look how fast Brian’s plans can change when it involves Justin. Or sex. But Brian when youre done, we need to talk to Buzz lightyear about his dangerous activities’ ‘WHY IS MIKE BEING A BITCH TO BLAKE?! He is a sweet guy who hasn’t done shit wrong. Be nice to him!’ ‘Im glad theyre finally giving Vic some fucking story line. Sometimes it felt like they forgot he was there *turns to me all serious* which one am I, Deb or Vic?’ The Britin scene comes up ‘YOURE TELLING ME FOR ONCE THEYRE NOT SHOWERING TOGETHER? see! Brian is worried, scared and annoyed at this pink pussy movement. And so am I! Now come on Brian, go and yell at Cody, like only you can. Why is Justin being so angry at Brian? Since when is he so angry? Brian! Do something!‘ ‘oh Brian is not having Emmetts shit. Look at him being a friend. *pauses tv* i really like this Brian. Something feels different, i fuck with it. he is full of advices lately!’ And we are back to Justin and Cody and he just groaned loudly and slid on the floor from the coach ‘this zack and cody spin off needs to end. Blondie is being forced to be angry and have a horrible haircut. Unless if they give me Brian yelling at this wannabe Captain America, make it stop. Justin he is literally telling you he wants to search for fights, why is my blondie so dumb at times?- damn I actually really feel bad for Mike in this episode, that is a first.’ The scene with Cody and Justin at the restaurant or whatever is up ‘what the fuck is this bullshit? JUSTIN WE HAVE A RULE! WHY THE FUCK IS HE BREAKING A RULE IN EVERY FUCKING SEASON?! DUDE- what..Justin for fucks sake walk away from this shit, at what point will you realize youre in too deep? WHAT THE FUCK KINDA ENDING WAS THAT?!’ *gets up and grabs his cigarettes* ‘great now Brian isn’t the only one stressed, worried and annoyed’ He is now outside walking up and down and talking to our mom all angry about how Justin is risking his life and being an idiot and then he just randomly went ‘but at least brian is looking really good this season. I feel like this might be his season where he finally thrives’ …safe to say he is wrong.

Brian really does look so good in the bathhouse scene. Also let's note Justin being happy to leave Brian there - this is not a kid who suddenly wants monogamy and marriage a year later, okay?

GOOD FOR YOU VICKY BOY! LIVE THAT LONG HAPPY LIFE BABY!

Oh Anon, oh dear sweet anon.... you're going to need to get some tissues for your brother.

That shower scene is so good. Brian is worried and pissed. He didn't scrap Justin off the parking garage floor just for him to risk his life being stupid.

i really like this Brian. Something feels different, i fuck with it. he is full of advices lately! CHARACTER GROWTH!

‘but at least brian is looking really good this season. I feel like this might be his season where he finally thrives’ …safe to say he is wrong. I mean he does look good the whole season, but yeah there's that whole cancer thing... Poor brother.

[lostinalem]

tell me about the fallout dnd campaign... *eyes emoji bc i'm on my laptop*

HEHEHE OK you don't have to tell me twice ! :3

sooooo first things first, the group consists of a hippie vault dweller (Joel), pre-war ghoul park ranger (Nettle), a girlfailure cowgirl (Andy), and a stubborn bos aspirant (Victoria). I'm literally kicking my feet in the air thinking about them rn

my character is Anderson (Andy for short) and wait. you're gonna love this. SHE RIDES A MECHANICAL HORSE. that's right folks, a giant giddyup buttercup!!!!! it's an absolute pain in the booty ass to draw but it's soooo worth it because it's cool as hell like I'll have to post some of my doodles soon so you can see

now, with 2 points in charisma, she's so. so bad at talking. she fails at pep talks, cannot rally a crowd to save her life, and always says the wrong thing at the wrong time. it never stops her from trying tho! one example of this is after Joel's vault was raided by the "legion" (WHAAAAT!!!! "what does that mean??" you dont get to know yet! cause I don't even really know yet 💀 anyway) she looks at the vault door on the ground and goes "well, you know what they say! one door is... um... blasted off it's hinges and... uh........ another...... um.......... opportunities!!" I LOVE HER !!!!!! I could talk about all the terrible ways she says things all day it's so freaking fun

HOWEVER. somehow, (luck?), it always works out one way or another. no matter how she butchers a speech, no matter how awkward an interaction is, it WORKS. tho people don't react the same way that they would to a more charismatic person, of course. it makes her more lovable, and people listen! for some reason.

she's not stupid, though, I want to make that clear. she's very smart when it comes to things other than talking 💀 with 8 intelligence points and tag skills in repair and science, she knows what she's doing! I mean, she built buttercup all by herself! the brotherhood keeps tabs on her because of her tech capabilities!

speaking of the brotherhood... her interactions with Vic(toria) are SO everything. I like to call Vic a bos pos because she really is a little piece of shit (lovingly) LOL and Andy just. torments her. like somebody threw a snowball at Vic in the vault (it's winter btw) (the dwellers weren't happy with her) and she was like. 'I'm going to handle this with dignity and grace. I am not going to react' and then Andy THROWS ANOTHER just to poke the bear. like girl 😭 or how they all need to use the bos terminals and so Vic is like "ok be normal guys let me do the talking" and before she can, Andy BURSTS through the doors like "I DEMAND TO SPEAK TO YOUR MANAGER" which she would not fucking say that normally but to embarass Vic? absolutely. especially since everyone there already KNOWS her and they're like 'Andy. David is literally in the other room. I don't get paid enough for this.' (and then she proceeds to call him Dave like they're old friends and Vic wants to kill herself and/or Andy at the same time)

now, what's ALSO fun is the interactions between Vic and Nettle. they HATE each other. I mean, obviously, cause Vic is the typical bos type of racist, but also because Andy tries SO desperately to keep things civil like "one big happy family" which we're actually seeing process with recently so !! yay !! Vic got radiation sickness one day and Nettle silently offered her some radaway like awww look at them go :3

Joel is another beast entirely. he doesn't know SHIT about the wasteland (typical vault dweller really) (which is also perfect because his player also doesn't know shit LOL) so he has us 3 idiots to rely on just because we happened to be nearby when his vault opened. his original goal was to set up supply chains because his vault's crops were dying and they have plenty of water to trade, which we dealt with pretty quick, but then we returned to find THE LEGION!!!! subsequently, his dad was stolen, the president (overseer, our dm hates when we call him the president but we do it anyway) was also stolen, and his life was turned upside down! yay!

so now, obviously, our goal is to save Joel's dad, the president, and whoever else the legion stole ! ngl it's been over 2 months since our last session 💀 but that just means I have more time to doodle things that happened previously! I'll post them after finals or something :) thanks for reading omg what do u think?? I'm not doing them justice really there are a lot more complexities but I guess that's the basics. also thank u for asking 🥺 I love talking about them and I will likely do it again LOL

[scrapyardboyfriends]

I'm probably dumb but if they really planned to do something with Luke, Robert and the appeal last year, they have the opportunity to recast Luke too in the future. The appeal's stuff seems to be soooo random and it disappeared as much as quick it was introduced. It's like not even Vic cares about it anymore and Wendy was too busy to play the perfect mom with Luke off screen. It felt terribly unecessary. It was just to creat a new drama for nothing. But maybe in the future, yeah they still can use it again if they remember it. Idk

It felt like…

…an underdeveloped idea that they started but then Max wanted to leave and instead of scrapping it they just went with it anyway and used it to their lazy advantage with Aaron and Ben.

…or that it was their initial idea when they brought Luke in to go down that route and that they could use it in the future to bring Robert back if they needed/wanted to and then all of a sudden Max was leaving so they thought ah well let’s throw it in just to get it out there with him there. And then either just lazily used it to push Aaron and Ben together or it might have been more originally but then Danny was leaving too so they just salvaged it by using it to put them together officially.

….or they just really are that bad at their jobs and thought it was all a great idea?

Probably a mix of all three.

Mostly, the last two years have just been an absolute mess with covid and people leaving and shifting schedules and controversy so who even knows what happened anymore. But wow would I love to have all of the behind the scenes answers. I feel like it would be significantly more fascinating than the actual show these days.

[what-a-messsss]

1x10 rewatch

Ok, let’s get back to Walt Longmire: Disaster Boi of S1 and finish this season off with a...something.  Pleading look to the heavens, maybe?  

How do I keep forgetting that Lizzie is a thing, even after our decision to find her some nice Smitten Cowboy to be with?  Holy hell, but why are you still keeping your dead wife’s ashes in the kitchen?  At least you kept Lucian in your fucking truck.  In a coffee can.  What is with you and breakfast beverages??  We all know you need lots of therapy, but this seems like a kind of niche issue.

“Trust me, you don’t, uh, you don’t want that tea.”  Buddy.  

Poor Lizzie.  She really is so nice.  And he’s such a fucking disaster.  “You seem weird,” she says, in reaction to him going bug eyed from having to convince her not to drink his dead wife without her realizing that’s what he was doing.  Sweetie, you have no idea.  And she really does like him.  

This is.  So.  Gloriously awkward.  And Lizzie’s there in her bare feet.  And all we need is for Branch to show up and we’ll have a full house, and aaaaahahaha, Walt is so trying to freeze time with the power of his brain.  Staring off into the Not Here place with his mouth pressed just so...  Awwwww, suffer.

I had forgotten that Ferg was the one who actually did the body work on the Bronco!  Even did the paint work, because that old truck has never looked so good.  I know Omar loaned Walt his truck while the Bronco was “in the shop,” but I like that the writers gave Ferg the skills to do that.

“If anybody... has something they want to say, I suggest you think twice about it.”  We don’t need to say anything; we’re too busy laughing at you.

Oof, and then Lizzie hearing Martha’s voice still on the message greeting.  She’s really quite a good actress.  Lizzie isn’t a terribly subtle character generally, but she gives her these really fine microexpressions that give you occasional glimpses that there is more going on under the surface, and she’s not just an open book.  : (  Making me actually like her and feel bad, not just cringe when she comes on.  Dang iiiiiiiit.

Ok, that does NOT look like Sharpie.  I’m sorry, but that looks like a paint pen or lipstick more than it looks like a Shapie on the dead kid’s forehead.  Even if it were one of the jumbo Sharpies, they don’t write like that, they aren’t that colour on skin, and the thickness of the lines are all off.  Which is not really relevant, but it buuuuugs meeeee.  Pedantic little shit that I am.

Ope, Branch is basically past the angst about Walt not liking him and straight into just giving him nothing but attitude.  Which, while I can hardly blame anyone for giving Walt shit, does get old pretty fast.

Walt, you are So Bad at talking to people, even when it’s for the damn job!  Yeah, it’s fine to have Ferg fill Vic in, but at least acknowledge that she’s there, damn.  Honestly it would have been good for both Vic and Ferg for Walt to tell her to follow Ferg’s lead on this one.  He knows the case, the local history, the players, the situation, and probably more about archery than her, and she could stand to take the reminder that working 5 years in big city homicide still doesn’t make her the senior deputy and that she needs to be ok learning from even Ferg.  Shit, I keep finding more and more reasons to be annoyed at Walt.  Is he even really that good of a sheriff?  I’m shaking the ol’ Magic 8 Ball here, and signs point to frickin’ NO.  Ugh.

Five HUNDRED dollars says that he didn’t check with Mathias before going on the Rez for official police business again.  Jackass.

Can’t really blame Viho for being super bitter.  And Ayasha is so sweet.  This whole family dynamic is so well done.

Aw, Ferg is so excited about the gum wrapper.  “Still minty!”  How are you such a sparklebunny?  Bless.

Detective Falessssss.  His opening line is so great, but uuuuuuuhg, he’s as bad as Walt with his singlemindedness about the case.  

“Talk to Ruby.  She runs my life.”  She runs the department, bucko, and you’d be lost without her!  Lost, I say!  But you treat her like your personal social secretary, and that’s crap.

In Fales’ dubious defense, you were just super weird about that whole encounter.  

Omar!  You creepy little lecherous jackass.  Why am I still fond of you?  It’s really rather galling that I enjoy your character at all, but I doooo.  Thank gods he has the beard now; cleanshaven was just wigging me out.  “Vickie’s never shot before--”  “That is the second-to-last time you will ever call me that.”  And I chortle myself to distraction to the point that I have to rewind to catch the lines that I missed.  With her horrible plans when she gets drunk (I’m still cringing at that flashback of her with Travis) and her obvious thing for older men, I’m honestly kind of surprised she didn’t end up having a deeply regretted something with Omar at some point.  They do have good chemistry in an antagonistic way.  And he does so enjoy tugging her pigtails.  ...ew.  Why is my brain like this?  

“A little bit of practice, even a girl can make that shot.”  Aaaaaaand we’re back to kick him in the nuts.  Not that we ever really left there.  Such a butthead.

Boy oh boy, it sure is great the tone that all these shitty rich white people take saying “Indian.”

“That is what a normal person would do in your situation.”  Henryyyyyy, I love you so much.  Why can’t we spend more time with him in the early seasons?  Why are you drinking a Rainier?  Nooooo, please have better taste in beer than your boyfriend!  You have expensive tastes in bourbon, why can’t you have decent taste in beeeer?

Walt, what is the point of practicing darts when you are FIVE FEET from the board?  Seriously, you’re supposed to be like...  (a google later)  7 feet 9.25 inches away!  That’s...  That’s an oddly specific measurement.  Wtf.  No quickly apparent reason for that specific measure.  Resisting the pull of this particular rabbit hole to continue the ep.  

Aaaah, that’s right, this is still when Walt thinks that Henry may have killed the guy for him.  And BestDad Henry talked to Cady after the blow up about Branch, and he is a wonderful human being.  “It’s really none of your concern.”  Hoooooow dare you.  It is clearly a function of being bffs with that butthead that Henry just smiles (somewhat bitterly) at this instead of tripping him into the bar or shoving his head into the cigarette machine.  (Is that a cigarette machine?  Wtf is that thing with the yellow lit up portion towards the top? [14:05])  

“What a rich inner life you must lead.  From time to time, you should consider sharing some of it with the rest of us.”  The sass!  Swoon.  Henry.  Marry me.  

“I’ve got other problems.”  Buddy, you are other problems.

I wonder how many people/places Ruby just has on speed dial so that she can zoom through her list of “Where the hell is Walt now” to get in touch with him.

Aaaaand we’re back to Branch getting a bit big for his britches.  Whee.  Better fight about it like Big Boys.  Ffs.  “Go ahead.  Give me your best shot.”  ::Pat Benatar starts playing in the background::  Oh holy shit, I wish so damn much that I had any know-how about making vids.  I would be beyond amused by a spoofy hate vid of Walt and Branch being assholes to “Hit Me With Your Best Shot.”  Ooo, oo, or “Hit Me Baby One More Time!”  Aaaahahaha, these fucking losers and their fragile masculinity.  Get rekt.

Children.  Childreeeeen.  Stop it, or you can’t go to Timmy’s birthday party next week.

The irony of Vic being the one who is actually calling them on their shit and getting to do their damn jobs.  Well shit, they actually have a warrant this time.  Will wonders never cease.

Damn, Viho is smart.  Politically savy, pointing out the election coming up.  He’s got the wrong end of the stick this time, but the fact that he’s seen these angles and considered a bunch of things about the consequences already is telling about how smart he is.

Ruby is so pleased to see Henry.  She sounds tired (dealing with Walt and Branch and the sheer volume of bs that is accumulating in that office, no wonder) but still fond.  And the look she gives him.  I love her so much.  She puts up with so much.  And I love Henry continually calling Walt and the department on their shit and just being a dedicated activist for his community.

Fuck right off, Branch.  “Woah.  I know you’re Walt’s friend, Henry, but you don’t have any particular rights here.”  You are sliding into being a full on trashbag of a human being so fast, Brancheroo.  Reminding a young man of his rights and helping him avoid getting railroaded by your biased ass isn’t a bad thing, you rusty wingnut.

Ok, it might not be Glasses!Henry, but cowboy boots!Henry with the glow of righteousness upon him is also quite A Look.

Aaaaahahaha, for once Vic’s unholy yelling saves the day.  Being able to shout over a mass of raucous teens is usually reserved for teachers, camp counselors, and stage managers.  Looool and using detention as the threat.  And then jail.  Heeeh.

This is soooo weeeeeird: I’m starting to genuinely like Lizzie.  She just showed up and I remembered that it’s for dropping off that present, and then Vic is such a butt about it, and this poor lady is just trying to date a guy that she really likes and even gave him about 5 different outs that morning and he pointedly didn’t take any of them and dammit, Lizzie deserves better, too.  Fuck, Walt, you are such a disaster zone.  And Vic is a whole other disaster area that’s looking to, uhhhh, share a border.  Yike.

The present is definitely more Lizzie than it is Walt, with the wrapping and everything, but it’s still a sweet impulse.  AND THEN VIC, who told Walt how many times that he should call her?? gets all up in her business?  Poor Lizzie trying to figure out what the fuck this has to do with Vic or how it is even on the same planet as any of her business.  She does have some issues from her previous marriage, but she owns them.  And her BS meter is actually pretty finely tuned.  Sure picks up on Vic’s awkward boner for Walt in no time flat.  Not that it’s particularly well hidden, damn.

This kid is a rapist and a murderer and The Bad Guy, but at the same time, he is a high school kid, chances are he’s a minor, and Walt is talking to him alone in his office without any parent, much less a lawyer.  What the fuck.  

“Because Ayasha Roundstone told me so,” is a good line, solidly so.  And Walt’s all in The Righteous Hand of Justice mode or whatever, with the gravelly voice and standing over the kid, staring him down.  Effective.  (But where are that kid’s parents?)  Ah, that’s right, his dad is taking a shot at whatshisnoodle to make it look like he’s the killer.

Awww, Cady.  Honey, how long have you been waiting for you FailDad to show up?  Fuck.  Right.  This was how she found out that Martha was murdered.  He lies to her so much.  He manipulates her so much.  He passes all of this off on it being Martha’s wish, but he even acknowledges that Cady had a right to know and he chose not to tell her.  He denies Cady her own agency again and again.  He makes decisions for her without ever giving her a chance to choose for herself, and punishes her when she makes a choice that he doesn’t agree with.

It’s not “protecting” her from the pain.  “Protecting you from the pain,” is not a father’s job; it’s to teach their child how to manage it, help them live through it, and how to grow past it.  You’re damaging her.  Into the suuuuuuun, Walt!  Into the fucking SUN.

But fuuuuuuuuuuuck, her delivery of that same line, “Well, let me relieve you of that burden,” is sooo good.  You done fucked up, buster.  And you just keep fucking up.  I would say in new and exciting ways, but it’s generally in the SAME DAMN WAYS, dammit Walt.

This flashback is really difficult.  

They’re right about that technically being kidnapping, too.  Wyoming  § 6-2-201 specifically includes defining kidnapping as unlawfully confining another person, with the intent to “facilitate the commission of a felony; or Inflict bodily injury on or to terrorize the victim or another,” with unlawful confinement defined as “accomplished (i)  By force, threat or deception; or (ii)  Without the consent of a parent, guardian or other person responsible for the general supervision of an individual who is under the age of fourteen (14) or who is adjudicated incompetent.”  Meaning that not only could Walt charge Jake with the kidnapping of Rich, but also probably of Ayasha, since she was ruled an unreliable witness and would more than likely be legally considered a “mentally incompetent person” according to the states’ legal definitions.  

Not... that I have the Wyoming State Criminal Code downloaded on my computer.  >_> Certainly haven’t skimmed about 80% of it trying to figure out what charges would most make sense to be levied against Jacob at the end so that I don’t have to deal with him going in to a Federal prison on RICO charges.  <_<  Or what Cady probably should have been charged with after that mess with Tate and Catori.  Nnnnnnope.  Sure don’t, didn’t, haven’t. o_o

This is about the only time I can remember there being a legitimate reason for Walt not to have backup.  Since they’re off checking other locations.  Also, damn, that was some classic Old West quickdraw shit, Walt!  Noice!

“Why did you stop me?”  Because you have to testify, you little shit.  HE is not terribly bright.

Ooooooo, somehow I forgot that it was Branch who went to Jacob.  But that makes total sense; I can’t really see Jacob seeking Branch out, but once he walks himself into his office, Jacob will certainly play those new cards for all they’re worth.  Ooooooooo, and the Hotamétaneo’o headdress!  I’d forgotten about Branch seeing it, too!  Nice call back and foreshadowing to finish off S1!

“You will not find a chili cheeseburger of this caliber anywhere in Colorado.”  And now it’s 4:30 in the morning and I want a chili cheeseburger.  Thanks, babe.   Some daaaaaay, I will figure out which is my favourite Henry, but it is not this day, because godsdaaaaamn, the red checked shirt with that vessssst, is *chef kiss* a wonderful thing.   And the director knoooooows it = that pan down Henry’s back as he turns after saying, “I said nothing,” for noooo reason other than to have Henry’s ass on screen.  Seriously.  He says his line, it pans down, we get a primo shot of his jeans, and then it cuts away.  Solely a pan for Henry Butt.  Who directed this, and where do I send the fruit basket?  Dang, it was Nelson McCormick, and this was the only ep of Longmire he directed.  Huh.  In S1, there’s only one repeat director, who did eps 1, 3, and 7.  Interesting.

Focus, kid.  You are less than 3 minutes from the end and you’ve had it paused for over 5 minutes to wander around IMDb.  No wonder it takes you three flipping hours to watch one of these episodes.  What a mess, indeed.

“We all process grief in our own way.”  Buddy.  You have not processed.  You are a human <BUFFERING> screen.  You’re a walking loading symbol.  Walt, he gives you some basic vital statistics on the guy, but...  You haven’t even asked who it was.  Walt, you are so bad at this.  Fffffffff---  And there’s season 1.  lawd.

Phandom Positivity post

For the new year I just wanted to spread some positivity and share some nice thoughts with people in the fandom, so let's go! (And this is in no particular order, you guys are all amazing!) @dannyphandump is always super nice! She puts up with all my dumb shenanigans and never see gets bothered, no matter how much I poke fun of her niche interest. Her rambling about milk always makes me smile (and snicker, reminds me of my cousins and their crazy milk obsession) and the countless blogs she runs are super enjoyable, even if she did draw that cursed egg (jkjk) She also a cool artist, great writer and can stay up way later then I can (maybe because of time zones... I'm always in bed regardless). Plus her and Vic are doing an awesome job with Phight Club and I'm looking forwards to it! She was super kind to me from the get go and I really appreciate it. Thanks for being my pal here! @d-o-t-s has an awesome blog with pretty colours! Her art is super gorgeous and I love her use of texture and colours she chooses! Really nice blending too (I'd die for her skillz). I enjoy the positivity posts that she has on her blog, honestly, a very nice break from all the countless other posts I see which can get a little intense at times. Not to mention she's super sweet and so relatable when she puts out progress comments (I feel ya dude!) Also the comics/memes she does are either hyper good or very hilarious and I'm super happy she's around ^^ @shinyspooks Soooo many great and hilarious ideas for AU's and otherwise. Like how do you come up with so many!?!!!  I always want to draw them all (if only I had the time!). Got me into Kaitou Joker which is actually super good, I need to continue watching it along side MaoMao. Awesome too chat with too, and we came up with a whole 3 way crossover with the sparkling phantom (which you guys may or may not of seen posts of here and there mentioning this) which I want to draw even more for! Also love all your responses to all the randomness that comes in your inbox. Amazing!!! I hope you are doing well, and I really loved all your extra submissions for fight club!

@babypop-phantom is someone super awesome, she does so much around here, art, memes, runs multiple events (and is currently running fight club Tali and THEY ARE DOING SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB with it! I love you guys so much! Oh and the writers too, thanak all of yall, itès a pleasure to read!). You know that takes a heck load of dedication and time, and I don't think we give her enough credit for all she does so I'm going to say a huge thank you for all you do for the Phandom Vic! She's also super nice and the first person from the Phandom who interacted with me. She puts up with all my nervous rambles and is just so chill, even when I'm the worst with social queues and doesn't bite. Thanks for being so chill with me and I hope everything is well for you! You're absolutely amazing Vic!

@reallydumbdannyphantomaus You are such an awesome blog and super fun to mess with. That positivity post (and the idea I sent you anonimously about doing a positvity event, but then realized I wouldn't have enough time to organise it given how busy I am so I'm doing this instead) is the thing that inspired me to do this whole post in the first place. I know I've said this a million times (and probably sound like a broken record) But I'm so happy I messed with you and discovered your blog, some au's are just so hillarious and I still have quite a few on my to draw list. I really appreciate the kind message you sent and you, you're wonderful! I'm sure we all love you and don't let those rough thoughts get to you!

@lumanae is one of the countless amount of people who has told me their bad at getting back to their dm's (why does everyone keep telling me that? You guys aren't all as bad as you say), but is probably one of my favorites to chat with! I also really appreciate you putting up with me rambling about a character you've never heard of and all the compliments on the Ikea blog, those were fun times! Loves Merlin, which I have never seen, but is on my to watch list because of her and pretty darn funny too. HAVE YOU SEEN THE PIZZA ROLL EXCUSE??? I'll send you new pictures of diesel when I get the chance and I appreciate all the love you give to cat Jack Fenton. You're cool dude! @phantomgirl15 is someone who I've bumped into just recently, but such a nice person. Helped give me a few pointers with writing and so easy to chat with. You do awesome writing and take up requests too which is super dope, and I'll have to give you a shout if something comes to mind. Thanks for being so kind and generous, you're incredible!

@ghostgothgeek incredible. I don't think I've ever met someone who loves drinking milk so much and has so many posts about milk (sorry Tali, but I think steph takes the cake for this one, I still support your milk choices though!). She is also so genuinely sweet and kind and so chill when I take forever to get back to her (I have no idea why I always forget to respond or either the message won't go through, since it usually bugs me if I haven't responded to someone or have an unread message, but thank you for being ever so patient with me!). And not just that, she's kind to everyone and deserves her title as Phandom mom. I also love that she sends glitter bombs to people, I mean what's better then glitter? Stay awesome Steph! @phantombreadproject Really nice! I love reading the writing you have and checking out your art. You are so much better then you give yourself credit for and I think it's awesome. And also I love seeing how much you improve, in even just a short time it's amazing! I also was scrolling through your blog and found out you wrote musical stuff, which is dope as heck. Also super fun to chat with, and another person whom I found hilarious for phight club! I really appreciate ya dude, you're amazing!

@ectoblood Probably one of the funniest people I've bumped into here, met at Dalv-co. Leaves some of the most hilarious comments, has great ideas and like sneaking in the staff room despite being fired on the first day. Super cool ideas too! You're awesome!

@sunsifire Sunsiiiiii buddy! I love u my pal, you're the one who ran the imposter Tali blog and I snuck up with you to mess with her! I'm so glad we stayed pals after that whole fiasco because you are hella fun to chat with and I enjoy your company when I don't have to much going on! I also appreciate how you are so open to checking out all the other fandoms I jump into *coughpersonacough* and actually kinda got into persona! I'm so happy to have you around to ramble and you send me kitties on all my bad days and make me feel better, I'd die for you!!!!

@ectolights I haven't really interacted with you much bc I'm pretty shy, but I am always happy to see the countless Danny Phantom posts you Reblog all the time! Also I’ve seen you art my goodness you are so incredible! Truely astonishing, I hope to se more occasionally pass by on my dash. And thank you very mich for the compliment on that Dani I drew, I'm happy someone was able to enjoy it, and made me feel a little better since I was having a rough time. Always a pleasure to have you around!

AAAAAANNNNNDDD I think that's about it for people I know. If I haven't really met you but you're part of the Phandom I'm sure you're awesome too and are well loved too! If you want to add something or send something nice to someone who I have not mentioned (or did) feel free to add on to this post and reblog it! I hope you all have a wonderful day!

"Can I stay with you?" 👀😘

soooo this got longer than i planned it to be but i hope you enjoy this and that you’re ready for some christmas ep vibes! :’) 

He shouldn’t be here, he knows that but there is no way he can bring himself to go home now. He feels bad because he’s not anything is he? He’d reassured Diane and Vic that he’d keep him company as if he still matters, as if he’s still something to the man lying in front of him. Aaron sighs, closing his eyes against it all- this whole mess, the fact that the man he loves so much is lying in a hospital bed because he got hit by car. He feels sick, wishing he could turn back time- wishing he’d just gone after Robert. He knew he was upset but he’d just let him walk out of the pub, upset and alone and now he’s in hospital.

“Please wake up Rob- please.”

Robert’s stable, according to the doctors but Aaron wants to see it with his own eyes. Maybe Robert doesn’t even want him here, why would he? Aaron gulps and blinks the tears away. He watches the door, hopes that Alex will have finished his shift. He’s a coward, he knows he’s being unfair but there’s only space in his head for Robert now. He’ll talk to Alex- his boyfriend- later and he will tell him the truth, that he knows what he wants, that he has always known. He just hopes Robert wants the same- if he wakes up that is.

“Hey you- I know you deserve a rest but please let me say hello properly first eh?” He grabs Robert’s hand once more and squeezes it lightly before resting their intertwined hands back on the bed. Aaron feels tears rolling down his cheek. Diane and Vic will be back any minute and Aaron just wants to be alone with Robert. It’s selfish because part of him feels like he doesn’t really deserve to be here now but he can’t leave- can’t face going home to a decorated house when the love of his life is struggling so much.

Suddenly Aaron senses movement and his heart drops, prays that Robert’s still stable- Aaron quickly realises that he is. He feels Robert’s fingers twitching and watches how the older man is trying to open his eyes.

“Hey- hey Rob. You’re alright, it’s all going to be fine I promise.” Aaron wants to touch but tries to stop himself from doing so, not wanting to spook Robert.

Robert has his eyes open, Aaron watches him looking around slowly- his eyes roaming the room before landing on him. Aaron struggles to breathe.

Robert looks so confused it hurts. Aaron wants to run all of a sudden, scared to cause Robert even more pain and worry.

“Aaron?”

“You’re alright” Aaron repeats, blinking quickly. “I’ll get a nurse yeah? And Vic and Diane are here as well. I’ll let them know you’re awake.” He stands up clumsily, wanting nothing more than to kiss Robert’s forehead or run a hand through his hair- instead he just touches the older man’s arm before walking out and not looking back.

***

His coffee’s gone cold. He has no idea how long it’s been, has hardly noticed the concerned looks from various hospital staff. He’s just been staring at the door and thinking the worst.

“Aaron?” It’s Vic, a frown on her face.

“Pet, have you been here this whole time, you should have come in.” Diane says.

“Are you leaving him?” Aaron says- hates the thought of Robert being in there alone.

“No, we’re just going out for some fresh air, he’s sleeping again.”

“Is he ok?”

“He’s doing better. He’s mostly tired and confused.” Vic sighs “Aaron what are you doing here? He’s asked after you. I told him you were just worried- but I thought you would have gone home by now. You’re with Alex.”

“Victoria” Diane warns.

“Well I’m sorry but he’s confused, especially after last night.”

Aaron squeezes his eyes shut, once again thinking of Robert drunk and upset.

“Aaron was just worried weren’t you pet? I know you care about him.”

Aaron wants to scream

“Care?! Of course I care about him Diane I-“

“You what Aaron?” Vic says, pleading for him to just say it.

“Can I go in?” Aaron says instead, wiping his eyes with his sleeves. He looks up and sees Diane looking sad, Vic with tears in her eyes.

“Aaron” she goes to sit next to him, pulling him into a side hug. “Go sit with him yeah? But-“

“But what?”

“Don’t break his heart.”

“I promise I won’t Vic. I’m going to tell him the truth, if he’s ready for it. I don’t want to upset him, he needs rest.”

“He needs you.” Vic reassures.

 ****

 He’s back watching Robert again but it’s better now because Aaron knows he’s doing well- that he’s just sleeping.

He hasn’t worked out what he’s going to say yet all he knows is that he wants to tell Robert everything- however messy. He just hopes Robert wants to hear it.

He’s feeling sleepy himself now he’s less anxious and scared about Robert. He rests his head on the bed- drifts off.

***

“You’re back again” he hears and when he looks up he finds Robert staring at him, eyes shiny.

“I didn’t leave, just sat outside” Aaron mumbles.

“Aaron, why?” Robert’s frowning again, Aaron wants to smooth the frown away.

“Because I-“

“What Aaron?” Robert sounds patient, hopeful and Aaron decides to go for it.

“I want to be here. I want to be someone who cares about you- cares for you.”

“But-“ Robert splutters but Aaron isn’t finished yet.

“No- not like that of course I’ve always cared about you I just mean- Rob I don’t want to be your ex anymore.” It comes out as a sob and Robert looks shocked.

“You’re with Alex.”

“Yeah- I know and I will talk to him, I will end it because I know this is unfair to him. But Rob I’m sure about you, I only want you. I never ever want to see you hurt again like last night and feel that it isn’t my place to help you anymore. Or sit by your side in hospital not knowing if I belong there.”

Robert reaches out and Aaron grabs his hand immediately, holds it to his chest.

“Are you sure about this?” Robert whispers, insecurity radiating off him.

“Yeah I promise Rob, I am sure.” He knows Robert, knows he’s scared that Aaron will be gone in the morning- Christmas morning.

“Can I stay with you?” He asks softly, pressing Robert’s hand to his face.

“You can stay with me. I want you to stay with me.” Robert answers, finally smiling properly and Aaron realises how much he’s missed that gorgeous smile.

“I’m not going anywhere. It’s Christmas tomorrow Rob, and I promise I’m going to make sure we have the best day yeah?”

“Don’t deserve you” Robert mumbles drowsily.

“You do Rob- you do.” Aaron kisses his forehead gently. There’s still a lot to sort out, a lot to talk about. And then there’s Alex but that’s tomorrow’s problem. All Aaron wants now is to be there for Robert, look after him.

It’s a struggle, especially now the older man is half asleep again, but Aaron manages to lie next to Robert somewhat, occupying just a small part of the bed. He doesn’t mind. He finally feels like he belongs again.

2x17: Heart

In a swanky bar in San Francisco, co-workers are out enjoying good company and crazy drinks. 

Maddie gets hit on by her boss, Nate, but is smart enough to see right through him. As she watches him walk away though, she sees a scruffy dude in the corner and becomes alarmed. He’s gone in an instant and Maddie takes off. She gets in her car and when she drives away, the scruffy man exits the shadows to watch her leave. 

The next morning, Maddie is getting coffee ready in the office when she finds Nate completely shredded to pieces on his desk. 

At the morgue, Detective Sam Winchester checks out the vic. Off the record, the coroner would say the guy was attacked by a wolf. Sam guesses correctly that he’s also missing his heart.

At the motel, Dean and Sam discuss the case and the string of unsolved deaths in the past year. This was the first man. All previous deaths were women, all prostitutes, all missing their hearts. Dean’s super pumped that they’re dealing with a werewolf. They haven’t seen one since they were kids (Sidenote: so in Bad Boys, Dean didn’t get those bruises from a werewolf...hmm, yep.) (Natasha: Oh noooooooo!) He’s also super pumped to put a silver bullet through its heart. 

They head off to talk to Madison. 

They show up at Madison’s place. She introduces them to her neighbor, Glenn. He’s a quiet, churchy dude who makes casseroles for traumatized neighbors. 

He leaves and the brothers ask Madison more about Nate. They ask if he had any enemies. She admits that her ex-boyfriend, Kurt, thought there was something going on between Madison and Nate. He’s been stalking them. The brothers head out to visit Kurt.

Sam and Dean sneak into Kurt’s apartment. They don’t find anything suspicious in the first two seconds of searching, but they do hear a mysterious noise outside. Dean finds claw marks all the way down the side of the building. 

Meanwhile, a copper is investigating a noise in the back alley when he’s attacked by the camera! He fires his gun. Sam and Dean run to the alley. They find the cop torn apart, dead. 

They head back to Madison’s, believing she’s in danger of Kurt. She tells them about seeing him outside her building the night before. One of them will stay with Madison and the other will go check out where Kurt works. They both want to stay with Madison, so Sam plays dirty and insists they play a little Rock-Paper-Scissors. He knows he’s going to win. He always wins. Dean always plays scissors.

Sam’s an awkward bean hanging out with Madison though --and she knows it. Folding her intimate wear right in front of Sam is dirty pool. Dean checks in on a lead on Kurt and then busts Sam’s balls a bit before Sam hangs up. 

Sam and Madison start watching TV. They bond over Madison’s cheesy soap. (Oh, man, in the world where Dean won the rochambeau game, he would have totally out geeked Madison on enjoying that soap.) Needless to say, Madison and Sam are cutie pies. 

Sam asks Madison why she was with Kurt. She tells him that it was what it was, but she changed after she got mugged and decided to take control of her life. Sam’s impressed. He’s soooo cute. He finds her so interesting but he’s working a case and he’s a nervous bean around women and he’s not really had feeling or wanted to have feelings for someone since Jess and Madison is cute and flirty and likes books. It’s a lot. Interrupting Dean calls to let Sam know that Kurt’s been found. 

Later, Madison lets Sam know she’s turning in for the night. Sam keeps it all professional and tells her that he’ll be here if she needs him. She gives him a lingering stare as she wanders into her bedroom. Sam stays up late watching TV. 

Dean stakes out Kurt’s apartment. Something smashes the window to Kurt’s balcony and Dean heads to investigate. Inside he finds a very dead Kurt ---and a very werewolf-y Madison!! She attacks Dean and runs away. 

The next morning, Dean calls Sam to tell him that the werewolf is Madison. Sam doesn’t believe it. She’s asleep in her bed. Dean tells him to look at her arm. He got her with his silver knife.  Sure enough, she’s got a cut on her arm. She’s also confused as to why she is naked. She wants to know what’s happening, and where Sam’s going. Sam goes to the front door and locks it, and then says, “I’m not going anywhere, and neither are you.” Ok, so that’s creepy, Sam. I guess she is a monster though?

Later that morning, Madison can’t believe she let this young, gun-wielding lad into her apartment solely on his word that he was a cop. She tries to convince Sam that monsters aren’t real but he shouts at her and won’t let her go. GOD this episode is disturbing on so many levels.

Enter Dean Winchester, who thanks her sarcastically for his head injury (that she doesn’t remember doing). Sam pulls him aside and they debate whether or not she’s killing on purpose or changing and suffering amnesia afterwards. Sam’s not ready to kill her if she isn’t aware that she’s a werewolf. And whoa guys, WHOA. I’m contrasting this with the episode we just recapped, Lucifer Rising, where Sam ganks the demon while the human vessel is in control. Brrr chills. 

Sam thinks there may be a cure for Madison. Their dad had a theory that if you killed the sire, you could sever the bloodline and cure werewolves. Sam examines her bite injury, sustained during the recent mugging. 

They learn that she was mugged around Hunter’s Point. Sam stays behind while Dean heads out to catch himself a werewolf! Sam tries to explain to Madison - who is openly weeping - that he’s only tied her up so he can help her. Y I K E S, Sam, that’s what they all say. 

In the middle of the city, a wolf howls. In Madison’s apartment, her manicure gets ruined. 

Madison hulks out and swats Sam down like he’s a bug. 

Downtown, a woman gets attacked. Dean shoots the attacker full of several holes and the werewolf morphs back into mostly human. It’s the weird, religious neighbor who lives next to Madison. He apparently feeds off of sex workers but “turns” the cute girl next door. Gross. 

Madison wakes up in a heavily clawed up room, still not remembering anything. Sam trapped her there overnight.

Dean relaxes in the car later and reflects on how Glen had no clue what he was doing when he was wolfed out. (Okay but...DIDN’T HE?) Dean catches the fact that Glen turned Madison instead of killing her and speculates that Glen was after a little “breeding action.” For fuck’s sake, Dean. I mean, you’re not WRONG, but I don’t appreciate the relish with which you talk about that. 

Dean pushes Sam to try his luck with Madison, who they’re pretty sure is now cured. Speak of the devil, Madison knocks on the Impala window. “You know, for a stake-out, your car’s a bit conspicuous.” TRUTH. She invites them back upstairs.

Day passes into night, then heads into morning without Madison turning. It worked! Awesome. Dean makes excuses to leave. Sam apologizes for tying her to a chair. She apologizes for scratching his face. They kiss. Suddenly there’s a fire in the fireplace! 

After eighty years of making out, we flash forward to a peaceful sleeping scene. 

Shirtless Sammy Alert!

The moon rises again. I guess they had sex all day? Sam wakes up to Madison snarling, fully wolfed out. GURL after all-day marathon sex I’d be that hungry, too. She launches out of the window instead of taking advantage of tasty snak Sam Winchester. 

Wherps. 

Sam races for Dean. They toss theories around, like that she has to be asleep to turn. Boys, plz, we saw her wolf out while Sam had her tied to a chair. There’s no legend, no lore that can save her. Sam draws a direct parallel to his own demon-blood situation. Part of him is evil as well, but Dean will never kill him. Dean WILL kill Madison without pause, however. 

Madison calls Sam from a pay phone. She shows the natural prowess from pre-smartphone days of memorizing phone numbers! She also tells Sam where she is. Sam calls her “Madi” and, friends, I am dead. 

Back at her apartment, they recap the situation. Madison doesn’t remember anything. Dean tells her that there’s one tried and true way to solve a werewolf problem, and that’s at the business end of a gun. MAN, I cannot tell you how many times I fantasize that the end of this show will bring about a more humanitarian world for monsters. 

Madison, in the heat of trauma, concludes that it’s time to die. She hands the gun to Sam and asks him to kill her. DUDE. Can we calm down, drink some hot chocolate, and revisit this?

“We can find a way. I’m gonna save you,” Sam says. Madison won’t have it though. She’s ready to die and she wants Sam to do it. (Once again, through our season 15 lens, I have to send two giant middle fingers straight to Chuck because DAMN this is such a lesson episode about how Dean’s gonna have to kill Sam.)

Sam’s an emotional wreck, but he takes the gun and kills her. UGH thanks for ripping out my HEART, show. (Also ISWYDT) The episode ends on a close-up of Dean. He single-man-tears Madison’s death, and flinches as the gun goes off. 

These Quotes Go on When I Close My Eyes:

Maybe there’s some human hearts behind the Haagen-Daz or something

Dean, always with the scissors

I could keep feeling sorry for myself, or I could take control of my life. I chose the latter

What are you, the Dog Whisperer now?

i'm kinda dreading next week, like i'm worried that something bad's gonna happen when they're on the run (as in one of them gets hurt, robert dies) tho that's probably unlikely to happen cause the writers will want to keep it open imo. but i'm just dreading the scene when they get separated. like idk how or why it happens but i'm worried. any theories?

I think, for me, I know something bad is going to happen, I know he's leaving you know? So I'm reconciled to being devastated regardless, it's not a thing like we don't know anything but there's rumours or speculation or potential. But obviously there's levels to it. I don't think d**th is completely out of the question, bc it's a soap, but (famous last words) we know there's been something filmed in prison soooo.

Personally I think something will happen that makes him realise he can't ask Aaron to give everything up, and that he'll either leave him behind or tell him to go. Or, they'll both come to a realisation that they don't have a plan or a shot or anything, that Liv and Seb and Vic and new bab and Chas and new bro will need him. I actually think it'll be pretty lowkey (I think the higher octane stuff will come from N/M/C), sort of quietly devastating.

But it's a soap, haha. Maybe don't watch until after its aired? So you'll know if you can handle watching it or just need to experience it through gifs for the time being or something.

Request: Anonymous: So the scene where butch shoots at Henry is so sad and I feel bad for Henry 1) because he has to deal with that and 2) he wets himself in front of his friends cuz he is so scared Soooo can we have hc where it’s that scene but Henry’s gf sees the whole thing and when it’s all over she runs over to him and he try’s to push her away bc he’s embarrassed but she just holds him and he breaks down in her arms and his gf, belch, and Vic help cheer him up? Cuz he deserves to be happy! Precious baby boy!!

Warnings:Mentions of sex

You were hanging with the boys 

Shooting bottles with Butch’s gun 

And it was Henry’s turn 

He does a perfect shot and you and the boys cheer him on 

You wrapping your arms around him giving him a quick kiss

He tells Belch to grab the stray cat in the yard at the next target

And you look away 

“Oh I can’t watch this”

You close your eyes bracing yourself for the cat’s injured meow when you  hear Butch coming

He yells at Henry, degrades him in front of you asking why you’re with him, and then shoots at his feet making all of you have to move out of the way

He stands there shaking for a second 

You try to hug him and he attempts to keep  you off him 

He was so open with you usually and you knew he was closing himself off so the guys didn’t see him as “weak”

But when his guard is down as he swiftly turns around quickly trying to get to the trans am you wrap your arms around him 

And he accepts it clinging onto you and burying his face into your neck 

Crying and shaking as you held him 

When he calms down a bit he goes to the trans am 

You exchange looks with the guys, since it’s pretty noticeable that he wet his pants

You had over to where he was sat in front of it, sitting down next to him, putting his arm around one shoulder and resting your head on the other

a bit of timepasses by you all just stay there in silence Vic and Belch standing behind you two leaning on the doors

Vic asks if he’s okay and he say nothing

You take your head off his shoulders and look at him

“You need cheering up. I know you have some clothes at my place, you could change there. You wanna do that?”

He just nods.

“Belch?”

“Yeah,” he replies knowing exactly what you mean

Vic opens the door for Henry who pulls you into his lap 

Again there is just silence the whole way  to your house

You put his jeans and boxers into the wash as he changes 

The guys suggest a bunch of things to make him feel better

Which you do all of

The diner, the ice cream parlor, the arcade  -where he got to take some anger out on Tozier and the Jewish kid-, and ending the day seeing a horror movie. 

By the end of the day he felt much better 

Belch dropped him off with you at your place

You got his now clean pants folding them by the chair

Sweet, soft, and slow sex

Praising him and just making him feel loved

Holding him in your arms and cuddling 

Henry falling asleep quickly and so happy he has you
