"It shouldn't take more than fifteen minutes to tag the library, the post office, do a line, and then hit town hall. Maybe even grab a slice halfway through. And like... not be out of breath, you know? I'm jus' saying maybe you're off your game, grandpa. Maybe it's time to give up and let the younger generation take your spot."

After a couple of hours of laying on the couch, staring at the late night Golden Girls reruns and over-thinking, Mac pulled her body up -- wrapping her blanket around her shoulders and shuffling into her older brother's room.

Yawning as she rounds the corner of his bed, she reaches out to jostle his ankle.

"You awake?"

She was still a little out of it, thoughts a little fuzzy while she sat up in the piercing chair with an ice pack pressed to the bottom of her nose.

Buffy hadn't even dared look at the piercing yet -- afraid she might just pass out again at the sight of it.

The same way she had when the brief but powerful burst of pain had hit.

"Do you think I should have started out with the ears?" she questioned Mack, a little bleary and slightly mournful, as her eyes followed his movements.

"Septum was too ambitious for a beginner, wasn't it? I'm so sorry, I've only passed out at least six other times in my life."

[macaulaymontgomery]

"No," Mac automatically answers with a determined shake of her head when her brother asks if he's being ridiculous.

"Listen, sometimes life is insane and gives you twists and people end up circling back to each other. Like, look at me and Lucky," she observes, gesturing into the vague distance behind her where she's sure her boyfriend is having a smoke or has run off with Finn somewhere.

"When I had to leave him in London I thought my life was just totally fucked, you know? Like I'd had the best thing ever and then lost it and wouldn't ever get it back in the right way. And, hey! Two years later and look at us! He's the sweet to my short. Did things suck in the two years in the middle? Yes, very much so. Possibly the most things have ever sucked in my life. But sometimes you gotta earn the payoff, you know?"

At the mention of him fucking Lorielai the corners of her mouth turn downward, unimpressed.

"Yeah, I'm aware," she deadpans -- still a little irritated by how that double standard had played out, but that was neither here nor there at the moment.

At his final question, she tilts her head in a gesture of sympathy.

"I would say maybe leave the pineapple bit out but yeah. If you're serious you're probably gonna have to tell her. Unless you wanna go the grade school 'check yes or no' route."

@mackmontgomery

Mack feels both lighter and heavier in the wake of his confession, something that confused him but all of it was confusing. The girl, the feelings, what the fuck he was meant to do with any of it. Hands off the wheel and headfirst was usually how he went about these things which made for some hella successes and hellish fails.

One thing Mack knows for sure is he can't do that in this situation, not with Cricket.

They had spent too much time and put in too much effort fixing all the things they had broken between them for him for him to be as reckless as he always was.

( Even if he really wanted to. )

"Shut uuuup," Mack says in a matching tone, though his sister's summation wasn't incorrect, "Well, yeah. She's very pineable and yearnworthy, even when dressed as JoJo Siwa. Pineable? Pineapple? What the fuck am I saying right now."

If he didn't know, Mac surely wouldn't.

"Am I being ridiculous?" Anyone who knew him less might consider that an easy yes in general, but he wanted Mac's opinion on his specific situation, "Like, is it insane in a not good way to even think about trying to win her back when it took us so fucking long to get back to a non-shitty place after we split? Because I fucking sucked after that. To her and about her. There's that whole fucking Lori thing too."

That gives him slight pause, unsure if Mac knew about that, though he guessed she did now.

"Which wasn't on purpose thing, that was just temporary insanity. But she's going to think it was if she ever finds out and I know she hasn't because if she knew, I'd know."

In many ways, he needs a time machine -- not a new desire -- so he could go back and undo that specific doing, or at the very least fistfight some sense into his past self. Two of his fingers tap against the side of his head as he closes his eyes, trying to contend with the myriad of thoughts all happening at once for him.

"I'm going to have to fucking tell her about that, aren't I?" He says eventually, the question almost pointless because he knew the answer. If he wanted even the hope of something real with Cricket again, he was going to have to come clean about something he never wanted her to find out.

[luke-hughes43]

so,

during dani's lacrosse season, she has a home game while will is ont he east coast so they play at the same time and will can't watch her play. which he hates, because he always watches dani play.

it ends up being a conference matchup against pitt, who hated her when she played at bc so she knows they are still going to hate her now. but dani is prepared for that.

during the game, she ends up taking a ball off the back of her shoulder, and it hurt so badly. it was intentionally shot at her.

she crumbled to the ground holding her shoulder and everything.

she ends up being fine, putting up 7 points in the game and the trainer looked at her and told her that it's just gonna be a nasty bruise. which is all that it is. but it's deep and very black and blue and purple.

she calls will after the game, knowing he won't answer, and leaves a voicemail. it's their thing, regardless of if the other will answer, they always call each other after a game. dani tells him, "hey babe. just finished against pitt. we won like 15 to 6, i had 4 goals and 3 assists. don't kill yourself trying to watch the game it was honestly boring. i hope you have a good game and i'm gonna throw it on when i get home. good luck and i'll talk to you later. i love you, bye."

will gets back to his phone after the game and smiles when he sees the voicemail and smiles the whole time he listens to it. toff, mack, and dellandrea all ask him, "dani?"

"yea. she had a game today at 3 their time so it was 6 here. we always call after games. i guess she had 4 goals and 3 assists in a big win which is awesome. i'll call her when we get back and then probably crash." will explains to his nosy teammates.

since it doesn't hurt too badly after a few days, she honestly forgets about it. that is until will gets home and sees the still very visible and sore bruise. she's changing in the morning to head to lift and he sees the dark purple mark on her shoulder and exclaims, "dani what the hell happened?"

"what do you mean?"

"the bruise on your shoulder blade?" will says in a 'duh' tone of voice. dani winces when she realizes that she never told him about it. she says quietly, "oh. i got a ball shot at me against pitt. i thought it healed."

"why didn't you tell me?" will says grabbing at her hips to pull her back so he can look closer at it. his fingers carefully dance around the very dark mark on her shoulder and he presses carefully earning a soft wince out of her. she says, "it honestly isn't that bad. it hurt int he moment but i brushed it off and finished the game. i didn't think i needed to say anything because it's just something that happens sometimes. i'm literally fine."

"but you didn't tell me? why not?" will asks as he keeps looking at the mark on her shoulder. he's sad that she got hurt and didn't tell him.

while will is still looking at her shoulder, dani explains, "i didn't think it mattered will. it wasn't a serious injury, i kept playing. it's a thing that happened. i get hit with lacrosse balls all the time at practice and don't tell you. i didn't think it was a big deal."

"i just wanna know these things baby. even you think it's not a big deal, i do. because i hate when i have roadies and can't be there to watch you play. it sucks, so you telling me the small details makes me feel like i was there. and you're sure that you're ok?"

"i'm positive william. it hurt in the moment but i honestly forgot it was there. i get sore during lifts sometimes but overall it's not that bad anymore." dani says and smiles when she feels will presses a feather light kiss to it, trying not to irritate it.

dani turns in his hold and drops her arms to his shoulders and fiddles with the curls at the nape of his neck. just above where his chain sits. she smiles at him, "i appreciate the concern babe, i do. but i'm fine. you know that i'd tell you if i wasn't."

"like you did during the natty when you partially shredded your knee?"

"that's different. the natty doesn't count and you know that." she says and kisses him softly. she pulls away and they are both smiling at each other. will pulls her in for a hug and she says, "i promise to tell you next time someone uses me for target practice during a game."

"thank you." will says but it's muffled from his face being buried in her chest from their hug. dani smiles and says, "i love you will."

"i love you too dani." will replies and his fingers start drawing random shapes into the bare skin of her back. she smiles at the feeling and says pulling away from the hug, "ok. i really gotta dressed now so i'm not late. you still driving me?"

"yea and then me and mack are heading to the rink for an optional lift before practice. i'll text you when i'm done and maybe we can do lunch or something between classes." will says as dani changes into her workout clothes.

she smiles as she tosses one of will's sharks hoodies on, "works for me. i'm done at like 5 so if you could also pick me up, that'd be great."

will nods and they grab their bags before heading towards the door to put their shoes on. they see mack just sitting in the kitchen on his phone. he notices them walking in and says, "nice of you to finally be ready. i thoguht i was gonna have to barge in there."

"you have a car, you can drive yourself." will points out to mack who just rolls his eyes at the blonde boy and dani giggles.

"that's no fun." mack says teasing will.

will grabs his keys and then dani's hand as they walk down to the car and head off to all of their responsibilities for the day. dani presses a kiss to will's cheek when they get to the stanford athletics facilities and says, "i love you, i'll see you later babe."

"love you too. have fun and be careful."

"where's the fun in that" dani shoots back with a wink before meeting up with her teammates. mack climbs in the front and will starts the drive to the practice rink. mack knows better than to quesiton whatever that was between will and dani so he just puts on music and drinks his coffee.

The year had, in general, been a raging shit show and Edie would be grateful to see it in the rearview and try to at least fool herself into thinking that she was turning a new page of her life.

And as a reward for her Halloween costume, she was kicking off her winter break from school with a much-needed and restful weekend out of her mother's house.

At least -- that had been the plan.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" Edie seethes as she dropped her suitcase, the keycard of the room still in hand.

AJ’s Analysis: Week 1 Postview⚡️

Raiders at Chargers: Los Angeles wins 22-10

Disclaimer: I am a Chargers fan so this will obviously be biased BUT I have been a football fan for the last 12 years and absolutely love dissecting the game and making comments so I figured I would give this a try! Please feel free to make comments and let me know your thoughts in my inbox!

How did my players to watch do?

Los Angeles

Justin Herbert QB- Oregon- Year 5🩵

Threw for 144 yards 17/26, 1 TD no picks. Solid game, nothing flashy nothing crazy. Honestly he could’ve played better but he hasn’t played real football in 9 months. For once he didn’t have to break his spine in half and still lose. He was carried for once I love this!!

*Do need him to play better and this offense to start clicking a little better this week though…

Cameron Dicker Kicker- Texas- Year 3

3/3. He was perfect. No notes.

JK Dobbins RB- Ohio State- Year 5

10 carries, 135 yards, 1 TD. Great debut by that little sweetie. I’m a fan.

Joe Alt RT- Notre Dame- Year 1

I mean…

First game as a RT and he respectfully ate and put shut down a first team all pro when it was time. Crosby was wreaking havoc otherwise. Extremely bright future for Joe!!!

Khalil Mack EDGE/LB- Buffalo- Year 11

3 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 1 pass deflection and 2 qb hits. Solid start for him and the entire defense.

Joey Bosa DE/EDGE - Ohio State- Year 9

Joseph. Anthony.

Best defensive player on the entire field yesterday. 7 tackles, 1 sack, 1 TFL, 2 qb hits. Incredible all the way around and I’m so excited for him to get back to his game wrecking ways in his prime at Ohio state.

*fun fact he’s honestly one of the reasons I started watching the Chargers in the first place his rookie year but they sucked real bad so I couldn’t commit fully but here we are, full circle.

WR Room

They did their best. Ladd is great, had a TD making two or three people shake themselves out of their cleats. QJ honestly did his thing, hope this year is more successful. Josh Palmer I hope gets some opportunities to show what he’s capable of. Overall the offense wasn’t incredible so I’m expecting this group to make some adjustments this week.

Las Vegas

Gardner Minshew QB- Washington State- Year 6

Thew for 257 yards 25/33, 1 TD, 1 INT. Looked solid coming out but was quickly stifled by the offense and struggled immensely.

Davante Adams WR- Fresno State- Year 11

5 catches 57 yards. Virtually invisible. Shouldn’t have been so worried about the Chargers social media team.

Brock Bowers TE- Georgia- Year 1

6 catches 68 yards. Honestly forgot he was on the field, sorry.

Maxx Crosby DE- Eastern Michigan- Year 6

5 sacks, 1 sack, 1 TFL and 3 qb hits. Messy but wreaked havoc. Terrible man though.

Christian Wilkins DT- Clemson- Year 6

4 tackles, no sacks, no QB hits. Also forgot he was on the field for bit. Joe Alt the 21 year old rookie had him and Maxx in hell.

Other notes

- Defense got stops when it mattered

- Offense looked lost at first but started to look competent towards the end

- Establishing a solid run game is important to open up the field for Justin to air it out and make some big plays BUT they do not need him to take over to win games which is very important

- Vibes were IMMACULATE pregame, during the game and postgame I loved every second!!

1-0 onto week 2!!

"Hello, can I help—oh, hey," said Pia, from behind the counter as she rounded a corner and came into view, carrying a small box that she set on the counter. "Good morning, such as it is. If you're looking for Phidips, he's upstairs, although from the sound of it, I think he's losing. You may wanna give him a few to, uh, chill out, before you go talk business with him." "Losing?" X asked. "He's, hmm. How best to explain this…do you know much about fighting games…?" X and Mack both stared at her blankly.

Very normal time down in Enoch right now! And maybe other underground places also? Hmm. Well! Whatever's going on there, I'm sure it's fine, don't worry about it. :)

[macaulaymontgomery]

"Ahhh!" Mac shouts back nonsensically in turn as her older brother shouts at her -- half in surprise and half in defensive objection as he plucks the cigarette from her hand.

She at least has the decency to look ashamed for a brief moment before she gets bold enough to make a joke.

"You know, I have smoked before, Mack. I'm half thinking about losing my virginity at this party too. Maybe even drink my first liquor."

Her tone is innocent but the sarcasm is apparent, leaning into Lucky as he wraps an arm around her and giving him a knowing look before she turns her attention back to her brother.

"Methinks someone is projecting their frustration just a tad," she says as she holds up her fingers as if in a pinch.

"Maybe you should have kept that cigarette. Nicotine might have done you some good in a moment like this."

@mackmontgomery

"Noooooo!!!" Mack hollers like a bald-eagle that made a wish to go to a high school prom that was actually a birthday party on a rooftop as he beelines for his sister, yanking the cigarette from her mouth before she can go for a second inhale.

His pinkie finger accidentally ended up too close to the lit end of it, getting synged in the process that had him cursing before he makes a demonstration of how he snapped the cigarette in half in front of the couple and let the filterless one drop off the roof to the sidewalk below.

"No smoking. Think of Kidney Prescott," He's speaking mostly to Mac but his words are levelled at Lucky as well, who had made himself a cigarette dealer of sorts since they had gotten together, "And I'm hanging onto this because I no longer trust either of you."

He pockets the decapitated remaining half before he holds his hands out to Barry Keoghan, his fingers flapping in a 'hand them over' gesture.

"I know you have more, Smokey Robinson. Give them to me. You have to earn them back."

I decided to suprise my sister who lives a couple hours away as I had the day off and knew her youngest was really testing her with his newest tantrum phase.

I walked in (no lock due to secluded farm house), followed the noise and saw her laying on the ground with him. Walked in just in time to see her do that fake sob adults do when they about to give up, followed by 'dude, your problems aren't real'. ☠️😂

Caught me off guard ahaah

Can you see any of the AUs saying this and having their partner overhear and step in to console both their babies?

Note: She is honestly such a great mum and so patient when her kids are having big feelings and would never say this to a child who could actually understand what she was saying. But this mama had enough with her 13 month old and I'm glad I could swoop in to help her

I feel like every parent has totally been there! Even the best parents int he whole world. Like naturally, you get tired and need a break. That was so thoughtful that you went over to support your sister! She is lucky to have you bby 😘

As for our AUs, and to keep in line with sisters, this sounds like a Lucie and Mack moment to me. When Mack comes to live in New York, Lucie is very happy. They have grown close as adults and it is really nice to have someone else around to help take care of Stell. Especially someone who isn't involved in the hockey world ( LOL).

But Mack is able to swoop in when Lucie gets to the edge of breaking down or feeling overwhelmed or just super fucking tired. Sometimes, Mack comes over to hang with Stella, just so Lucie can take a nap. After that nap, Lucie wakes up ready to take on the world of solo parenting again! Plus, Mack loves getting to spend time with Stella. She may not want kids, but she's good with them.
