Come back home when you have some sense

You can throw your life away just not at my expense

You’re not the son I raised

Character Tease - 4 of 5

To whom does the hand of fate beckon; The holy messenger of rot and plague, desperate for affection? Or perhaps the alluring songstress, whose mystery is as great as her influence?

The Beholders of the Moon and the Wonderland Ensemble aren't the only hands dealing the cards when it comes to crime in Vilyuchka.

Many other mysterious forces have their own sway and influence in this world. Be it with the support of a syndicate or completely independent from any group.

The Amatores Pestilentiae, otherwise known as the Watchers are a group of religious fanatics that give their hearts to one being: An angel of plague and rot that goes by the name of Uriel. The Watchers operate more like a church would than any traditional crime syndicate. While they don't enjoy the life of crime, their unorthodox manners of worship and faith in beings deemed unholy means they have no choice in stooping to the depths of Vilyuchka's crime culture.

While the Beholders are considered passive for the most part, the Watchers can be known to be somewhat aggressive. Most Watchers are completely faithful to the beck and calls of their idol Uriel.

Watcher Uriel's goal is simple on paper: They want to live in a world where their unsightly visage is accepted and loved. A world where they and their beloved Watchers don't have to fear death if they were to go out in daylight. Though things get much more complicated when you factor in Uriel's nature as an angelic being.

In the grand scheme of things, he hasn't been living amongst mortals for very long. Not to mention the ways his followers tend to shelter him. This causes him to have a disconnect when it comes to mortal life, and an impressively great lack of empathy. The Watchers blindly follow his command nonetheless, unable to think critically about the dissonance he experiences.

Blackheart PI is in no way a crime syndicate. Quite the opposite, in fact. Technically. Blackheart PI is a one-man unit, run by the ever mysterious Lucia Blackheart. While through all technicality she's a detective, and a damn good one at that, her goal isn't to put an end to Vilyuchka's dependency on crime.

The first half of business model is simple. She uses her prowess as an investigator in order to gather documents and useful information for various crime organizations around in Vilyuchka. They pay good money for it, too. No one offers a service quite like she does. Any time you have Blackheart on your side you have an immediate advantage.

To most this would seem risky. Blackheart is essentially walking with the biggest target in Vilyuchka on her back. This is where her second talent comes in to play; She's a Composer. As well as a songstress. And one of the best in Vilyuchka, at that. Killing Blackheart, someone who is such an established musician, would be an incredible loss. Attempting anything nefarious with her would not only lose you one of the most valuable allies in Vilyuchka, but also risks inciting the ire of all the other syndicates in the city.

so after the prof cancelling like 8 classes in old english, losing quizzes and assignments and grades, never making expectations clear, barely explaining what he was teaching, etc, we didn't complete all of the things on the syllabus and i don't think i can. calculate my grade going into the exam?

there's supposed to have been 9 quizzes with the lowest mark of that 9 dropped; at my best count there was 6 and i have no idea if we can still expect that lowest drop

there was supposed to be two tests and no exam, but i suppose the exam is the second test bc having an exam was his plan from the start and the dept wouldn't allow it so he's doing it via loophole + we did do one test already

we completed 2 translations as expected but i won't have the second one returned before the final exam is due, so no idea how i did on that since i felt ok abt the first one and only got a 50

i also don't have my essay back, which was like 20% and the only thing i've felt confident abt all semester

multiple quizzes and assignments were returned with random numbers on them with no indication of what they were out of (i was given a quiz back with "12" written on the top? 12 out of what? 12%?)

can't find half of the quizzes- i don't think i even have them. i have 1, 3 and 6. we were emailed some of the marks, so they might be in my inbox somewhere? but i don't have the physical quizzes and can't use them to review or like. learn from them

also the prof is out of province rn i think. this is the third time this semester. so i can't meet w him to check up on this

like i need a 65 average in every course to stay in honours, if this course fucked it all up for me i'll lose it i really will. i THINK i'm over that but i have no fucking clue. and not to catastrophize but if i don't get a 65 i can't do my essay next semester and everything is completely set up for me to go do that already, and ofc then i won't graduate in spring and won't get the degree i worked my ass off and paid a fucking exorbitant amt of money for that i am almost finished. i hate this fucking school man

[pepprs]

i think i need to go back to br*ghton and get my phd there im going to be SICK

Is hoppy and captain carrot the same?

Right sort of idea, wrong universe! They're both animal shaped superheroes 'inspired' by heroes from the main universe, but have very different origins and backgrounds.

Captain Carrot and the Zoo Crew are native to Earth-C and DC, turned up in 1982, and were 'inspired' to be heroes by meeting a universe travelling Superman.

Hoppy however is a Fawcett Comics native who in his Animal Hero original existence belongs to Earth-C-Plus. This is an entirely separate set of comedy animal characters written by Fawcett that go back to the 1940s. Hoppy is a fan of Captain Marvel comics, and tries saying Shazam, only to turn into Captain Marvel Bunny. He's...one of the more ridiculous aspects of the Shazamily in his original form, so the fact he's now simply a talking magical rabbit is practically NORMAL.

You gotta love DC categorisation, they have 3 separate Earth-Cs: for the DC native comic animal superheros (Earth-C), for the cartoon animal superheroes drawn by Captain Carrot in Earth-C (Earth-C-Minus), and the Fawcett native comic animal characters (Earth-C-Plus).

I can understand having trouble telling them apart though, given they both look like generic copycat animal superheroes with powers.

some women in my grad program made a group chat for the school and i am straight up not having a good time lol. lmao, even

WHY couldn’t we have had a snow day instead of a delayed start. I’m in exactly the position I feared, which is still no real cold symptoms, just definitely getting sick and headachey and tired and woozy but feeling good enough that I COULD go to work, only I really really don’t want to shovel snow off my car and teach two back-to-back sections of my class. I just wanted the weather to make the decision for me!

Obsessed with the scene in tmnt iii when Casey is told he'll be staying behind with Splinter. He visibly considers homiecide before saying with great solemnity "it'll be a serious honor"

red kisses | j.w.

pairing: jake webber x fem!reader

summary: you got a new lipstick and you just had to prank your boyfriend with it.

warnings: nothing really, just bad writing and grammar(sorry, english isn’t my first language).

an: i got this idea from tik tok but i unfortunately couldn’t find this girl:((

pictures are from pinterest:)

You got a new lipstick. But not any lipstick, it was a color changing lipstick.

At first it was in neutral color and then after few minutes it was starting to get red and redder until it was bloody red.

So of course you had to use this on your lovely boyfriend.

You already pranked him with normal red lipstick and he wasn’t mad but well, now he was making sure you doesn’t have red lipstick on when you kissed him before he was supposed to go out.

Currently Jake was in shower so you quickly took your phone deciding to share this prank with your viewers on instagram later. You recorded a quick intro telling them about your purchase and plan.

Then when you heard that water stopped running you pretended that you still were on the couch with your phone.

„Hi baby.” Jake smiled at you and sat next to you.

„Hi love.” you also smiled at him opening your arms and he gladly laid half of his body on yours and snuggled into you.

You stayed like that a few minutes.

“Go dry your hair babe, we don’t want you to get sick and you have to go in few minutes.” you reminded him. He was supposed to be out with Johnnie in thirty minutes so that was perfect opportunity for your prank.

Jake sighed but did what you said and went to bathroom to use dryer.

„Baby, can you do my hair?” you heard Jake asking.

„Sure.”

Few minutes later he was sitting on the floor in front of you with you brushing his hair. You styled it the way you knew he liked and then he was almost ready to go.

„I’ll go change. I’ll miss you.” he pouted and you giggled quietly kissing the top of his head.

„I’ll miss you too but i’m not sure if Johnnie will be happy with that reasoning.”

„Stupid Johnnie.” you heard Jake muttering under his breath and you only shook your head with small smile while he was getting up from the floor.

He went to yours room and you quickly started recording on your phone and you put on your new lipstick. As you expected, it was almost clear like a lipgloss. You quickly hid your phone and not five seconds after you were done with hiding, Jake was back from the bedroom in new clothes.

You acted like you were taking something from a cabinet in kitchen.

„I have to go.” you didn’t have to look at him to know he had a pout on his lips.

You smiled at him and opened your arms and he quickly ran to you and was snuggling into you.

Few seconds later he took his hands from your back to grab your waist and lift you onto the kitchen counter.

You giggled and took his face in your hands and kissed his lips, he gladly deepened kiss.

When you disconnected your lips you also left kiss on his left cheek and side of his neck. You made sure to press your lips a little harder to leave a lipstick in those places.

„Don’t keep Johnnie waiting.” you lightly patted his ass and he smiled at you.

“I’ll be back soon.” he promised at kissed your forehead and then nose “Bye love.”

“Bye baby, have fun!” you waved at him and he got out.

You took your phone from its hiding spot and you stopped recording.

You waited few minutes and then updated your video with how your lips and places Jake kissed were almost bloody red.

You waited for some message from Jake about your prank but got nothing so you waited for him to be back home.

Finally, some time later when you were watching a film you heard a keys jiggle on the other side of the door so you quickly started recording and pointed phone camera on the door.

Jake came in with wide smile and red lips shaped spot remaining on his neck, but the ones from lips and cheek were gone.

“So I noticed your prank.” he accused pointing his finger at you “How the hell it appeared after I was out?”

You laughed and explained “I bought color changing lipstick.”

He gasped and came to sit next to you.

“I was so shocked when Johnnie told me about lipstick stains because you had no lipstick on.” he pouted and you giggled, but then he smiled widely and pointed at the kiss on his neck “I kept this one and I think I should make a tattoo like this one with your kiss.”

You smiled at him because well, he for sure looked good with this kiss.

“You definitely should.” you nodded and stopped recording to start kissing him and he gladly accepted this.

“But be careful.” he warned when you disconnected your lips “I’ll have my revenge!” he laughed mischievously and you only nodded with small smile.

“Sure love.” and you were back to kissing him.
