More Than Human: Chapter 9 Liveblog Pt. 2!
Something about it made her look very feminine, and Butch held his breath a little longer before exhaling. He stared at her awhile, then realized she had just asked him something. 
He lets her playfully shove him. He's not even high but he's letting her think he is. He thinks it's the only way she'll open up to him. But he's watching her and observing her and he's focusing on every little move she makes. He's so painfully aware of her presence, of her proximity. He's thinking about how easy it would be to kiss her right then and there and he's careful enough not to blow the smoke he knows she doesn't like in her face. Oh Butch....he's so head over heels for her that it's just painfully obvious at this point.
Those quiet Green moments are part of the reason why I'm so in love with this ship. It doesn't need big love gestures to be epic. The text just lets them...be. The writing for them specifically is so unique that they make every scene they're in comforting yet electrifying. Kudos to SBJ 💚 PLEASE DON'T TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME
BOOMER WANTS BUBBLES TO SING AND PLAY FOR THE BOTH OF THEM I'M C R Y I N G
Protective Brick, battling the creeps away, one glare at a time xD
AHAHAHAHAHAHA BLOSSOM WANTS TO LICK BRICK OMG
BRICK AND BLOSSOM KISSING. HE. KISSED. HER. KISSSING. I CAN'T. DEAD. SEND. HELP. I REPEAT. BRICK AND BLOSSOM K I S S I N G!!!!!!!!
I am commenting from the grave kbye
Brick's gonna be very upset the guys ate his cereal
Despite the length, her hair still curled in circular, wavy patterns against the carpet, like black ink on a blank canvas. Butch is very artisty when it comes to his Buttercup thoughts isn't he xD
This scene KILLS ME I AM TALKING FROM THE GRAVE RN OKAY I CAN'T WITH THIS DAMN CHAPTER
Butch completely fascinated with Buttercup like wow too fucking cute
Mitch had said that they'd never done anything worth mentioning, which sounded stupid to Butch. He didn't understand how any guy could stand to keep his hands off her when Buttercup looked like this. Except him. But Butch was different. He didn't know how, but he was different. Uh huh sure Butch. It's definitely not you who can't stop staring at her and you're tooootally not attracted to her that you actually have to force yourself to stop looking nopppe not at alllll
Reds are a mess...more so Brick tho hehehehe 
Fuck it begins...watch as I curl into a ball and wrench my own heart out...
SHE IS SO HAPPY SO FUCKING HAPPY I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS NOPE SORRY NO
Buttercup, after a horrified moment's contemplation, reached for Blossom's glass of milk and sniffed it. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Smooth Bubbles lol xD
"No part of my brain is in that girl's body, I swear." The suspicion is real tho hahahahahaha
Awww @ the boys showing genuine concern over Brick ❤
Yea sure Brick because hormonal kissing totally normally shifts the earth like something heavenly and puts puzzle pieces into place like duh ofc....fucking idiot gives me headaches why are boys so stupid?
Boomer & Butch barged into Brick's room to keep him company and cheer him up with some weed even though they don't know what's wrong with him SINCERE BROTHERLY MOMENTS ARE MY BREAD AND BUTTER OKAY
Oh my god Blossom is so hopeful and waiting and making excuses for him and it's breaking my fucking heart 
This part is so triggering for me ngl I fucking hate it
FUCK YOU BRICK FUCK YOU AND YOUR STUPID PLAN HOW DARE YOU GIVE HER HOPE JUST TO CRUSH IT LIKE THAT YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE
SOMEONE HOLD BLOSSOM PLEASE THIS IS TOO PAINFUL I'M NOT OKAY
Crying does help
How could he ask her to just forget a moment in her life that was one of the happiest she'd ever experienced? I thought, she started, and then tried to stop, but it finished itself. I thought he liked me. FUCK MY LIFE I AM BAWLING
Oh man Buttercup's so concerned and Blossom's trying to get herself together and fuck I can't handle this
Stop stop STOP THIS FUCKING HURTS PLEASE STOP
Is it wrong that I feel just as betrayed and excluded as Buttercup? I feel so much for Blossom but that's her sister! And it's really unfair to exclude her like that especially since she knows she went through her own emotional breakdown after Mitch so she would understand....she IS her sister too :/ i'm very protective shhh
"...Okay. Is she okay?" Both of his brothers looked up at him. "Who?" Butch said sharply. "Is who okay?" Brick stared at Boomer, wide-eyed, one hand still on the doorknob. Can we just take a moment to deduce that Butch was definitely asking if Buttercup's okay? He got worried about Buttercup and no one can convince me otherwise nope na uh....AND BRICK YOU FUCK YOU BETTER BE WORRIED ABOUT BLOSSOM
And the first person Buttercup chooses to go vent to is....? #besties
Butch's "Whoa, whoa, whoa" totally reminded me of Noah Centineo, that's like his catchphrase! Anyone else think he'd make an awesome Butch? I already casted him in my head sorry not sorry xD
Buttercupppp :'(
Brick suddenly hated himself, more than anything. GOOD YOU SHOULD
IT'S THE ASTEROID SCENES I AM CHOKING GREENS WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME I SWEAR I LOVE THEM AND THESE SCENES SO FUCKING MUCHHHHH
Oh he's pissing her off real good oh god
A+ to Butch for instinctively knowing exactly what she needed 💚
"No boys are smart when it comes to girls." Truer words have never been spoken
"Why doesn't he like me?" Blossom mumbled, her tone childlike, plaintive. / Instead she kissed her sister on the forehead and whispered, "To Hell with him. I like you." I AM FUCKING C R Y I N G this is one of my absolute F A V O R I T E sister moments it is FUCKING PAINFUL AND BEAUTIFUL AND BUBBLES LET ME LOVE YOU FOREVER AND EVER ❤❤❤
Buttercup panted for breath, her muscles aching and joints sore. Butch was draped on top of her, his elbows shaking as he propped himself up; he, too, was panting. Her fist opened against his stomach, skimming along the tense muscle before gliding over that chest of his, rising and falling in an incessant, almost calming pattern of movement. She bumped her forehead against his shoulder as she pressed her cheek to his sweaty neck and whispered, "Thanks. I needed that." I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE SBJ I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE :D this totally threw me off the first time I read it ahahahahahaha panting sweaty touching muscle aching greeeeens *_*
I love how after they beat the shit out of each other they still have to make sure the other's okay xD
A small, slow smile worked its way onto his face. She watched it form, almost mesmerized at the gradualness with which it appeared. Like how Butch stared at her smile in those photos and videos? Is this his head over heels in love smile? :D
"Don't see your bra showing." "I like to let it all hang out there, you know." That cracked me up hehehehe
Butch actually apologizing for staring at a pretty girl's boobs? That's a first xD
SHE SAW THE STARS REFLECTED IN HIS DEEP GREEN EYES LIKE WHO THINKS THAT ABOUT SOMEONE THEY CONSIDER "ONLY A FRIEND" HUH???
Butch reeeeeally doesn't like her hair long...and what it represents to him.
This whole scene is everything okay like they're just (ironically considering what they'd just finished doing) so fucking gentle with each other and so quietly comfortably touchy and total comfort zone like I LOVE EVERY LITTLE THING ABOUT THIS SCENE E V E R Y T H I N G greeeeeens 💚💚💚
Yup Buttercup knows, Blossom. She gets it. She understands
I'm better than that, she thought again, jaw set and face hard. I'm stronger. DAMN STRAIGHT LEADER GIRL!
Oh my god Brick fuck off and grow up! You chose to reject the best thing that's ever happened to you so deal with the consequences....idiot.
I still feel bad for him even though I harp on him so much ngl xD BUT WTF IS WRONG WITH HIM LIKE HE'S ACTUALLY UPSET THAT SHE DOESN'T LOOK MORE UPSET WHAT DO YOU EXPECT YOU EGOTISTICAL MORON WTFFFF
Only Blossom would use the 3 day rule to force her sisters into doing their homework hehehehe
Brick you grinch, leave the Blues alone not everyone has to be as miserable as you are.
Brick almost went after him, ready to beat some God damn sense into him, because fuck, what did Boomer know? What did he know about anything? He didn't get that this was all his stupid teenage emotions getting in the way of rational thought, that he was blinded by affection for her, and she had no idea, she wasn't looking at him, she wasn't talking to him, no matter if she was only doing exactly what Brick had suggested they do— STOP PROJECTING YOUR ISSUES ONTO THE BLUES YOU ASSHOLE YOU DID THIS TO YOURSELF AND BROKE MY BABY'S HEART....this was so well done and human though kudos sbj :D
Wait is that the first time Boomer's said the L word seriously? B A B I E S
"Something tells me Brick's not going to get a lot of things," Bubbles said cheerfully. Like a girlfriend. Shots fired :D
Oh my god Boomer is KILLING MEEEEEE LITTLE BOY BLUE LET ME HUG YOU
He's so insecure and he feels like not even Bubbles trusts him to be strong enough to handle shit. I see where he's coming from and him being so upset is making me so upset :'(
She hadn't realized how much of a little boy Boomer was, how much he bought into this idea that he was the dumb one who couldn't do anything, to the point where he assumed everyone thought that of him and resented them for it. :'(((
He is a little boy who actually doesn't know any better. Man the boys' upbringing was so messed up and they're still teenagers.
BUT SHE DIDN'T TELL HIM TO GO HOME AND HE FOLLOWED HER ANYWAY AWWWW BUTCH YOU BIG SOFTIE 💚
Aaaand Boomer told Bubbles. Now the only one who doesn't know about JS Inc. is the one who probably shouldn't know....I feel like this is gonna blow up when she finally finds out.
SAY BYE TO YOUR MULLET BRICK AHAHAHAHAHAHA
All the haircuts though...symbol for the boys' character evolution or a big change coming up?
ROBIN WEARING MIKE'S JACKET!!! I love these little throwaways for them. THOSE TWOOO ❤
Sidenote: 3 guesses who Mike was looking for in the prom chapter :D
Watch as Brick turns into a big baby craving attention *rolls eyes*
"I'd rather kiss Brick than you," Butch sniped at Boomer. "Holy crap, I'd pay twice as much to see that happen!" Buttercup shouted, raising both hands, and the rest of the girls whooped and hollered. HOLY SHIT YESSSS PLEEEEASE GIMME *_*
I would also pay to see Butch and Buttercup kiss just putting that out there...
Buttercup's inner panic at the possibility that Butch might kiss her tho xD
HER SHOULDERS GOT TENSE WHEN BUTCH KISSED ANOTHER GIRL TELL ME THAT ISN'T A SIGN OF JEALOUSY I FUCKING DARE YOU
Butch licked his lips thoughtfully. "Cherry soda." He winked at Julie as he sat down, and as Buttercup stared furtively at him it seemed to her that he was avoiding meeting her eyes. Hmmm am I overthinking or is Butch feeling kind of...guilty or ashamed that he kissed someone else?
Coincidence or use of powers that Butch's spin landed squarely on Buttercup?
SHE'S DOING IT! SHE'S ACTUALLY FUCKING DOING IT OH MY GODDDD THAT'S SO LIT HOLY SHIT
A few of the other guys voiced their hearty thanks to him. Butch, meanwhile, stared at the full bowl, the image of Buttercup's jaw, open wide and with her cheeks slightly sucked in, playing over and over again in his memory. He suddenly felt a strong, strong craving for cherries. SCREAMS INCOHERENTLY!!!!!!!
Buttercup kisses Brick. Was talking about Brick contemplating the kiss with my best friend (shoutout! 💚). She was saying she's hoping it doesn't turn into a cheesy love triangle or some shit like that but I really don't think SBJ will travel down that road....hopefully xD
Butch is pisssssed af hehehe...wonder if this will come back later.
Let Him come, Bubbles thought, her face hardening for a second, for one brief moment where she forgot to keep it inside, to herself. He can bring it. Let Him try. She focused on Boomer's bright expression, on that happy smile, and summoned up a cheer. Let Him come, she thought again. Her hands tensed, gripping the cushion of the couch. He won't take Boomer from me. I won't let Him. I swear to God, I swear, if He lays a hand on Boomer, if He so much as touches a single hair on his head, I swear I will make Him regret it. I am very much looking forward to that point in the future where Bubbles goes all ~haaardcooore on Him's ass to protect Boomer :D
TEENAGERS HAVING FUN YAYYY
That ended on a pretty depressing note though :(
AND NOW COMES THE NEWEST CHAPTER THAT I HAVEN'T READ YET
God help me when I'm done with it because I will probably be a m e s s
Time for you to join the dark side!

Importance of Temporary Door, Jamb, and also Threshold Protection During Building And Construction as well as Remodeling
The front entrance including the door, jambs, and also threshold is the prime focus of your customer's residence. It establishes the tone and expectation for the remainder of the residence, and it can include or take away curb allure. Entranceways have actually been important dating as far back to the Greeks. According to Jesse Nevins of Coastal Carolina College, "To ancient Greeks doors were considered spiritual and also surrounded with superstitious notion. A lot to make sure that doors and also the making up components had their own deities. For the Greeks a door was not simply a way to go into a building, however a sanctuary itself worthwhile of the highest regard."Check Jamb Mock Exam
Maintaining doors, jambs and also limits looking wonderful while a home is unfinished or remodeling is very important, and also is now much easier than ever. Throughout building and construction, professionals will certainly go through the doorway with products and also tools needed for the construction project. Each pass threats scratching or nicking the home entrance. Momentary protection needs to be in area prior to the start of building and also ought to consist of defense for all the aspects of the entrance Jamb Caps.
Doors can be protected with temporary cardboard door guards readily available from a range of makers. Numerous protectors are not only made from recycled cardboard, yet can be reused and recycled entirely once more, making these protectors really green. The very first protector to market and most prominent is DoorGuard. It is a genuinely environment-friendly product that utilizes recycled cardboard for the door defense with all-natural elastic band for accessory. An additional preferred guard is the 1-2-3 Doorshield item. This protector is not recyclable as it uses plastic Velcro for the door attachment. These big protectors are frequently bought in pallet quantities for use on lots of business jobs however they are likewise offered in smaller quantities too.
Doorjambs are frequently dented or damaged during building and construction. There are numerous types of protection offered that break onto the door housing and also secure the jamb. These protectors can be made from molded plastic or cardboard. Pre-molded plastic protection works well for jambs with conventional door casing sizes. For larger jambs there are a number of wrap-around jamb guards that work similarly yet are not molded to a precise housing dimension. These recyclable guards offer excellent defense, however they are the most expensive jamb protectors on the market. Less costly, cardboard guards twist around jambs in a comparable fashion and also cost considerably less than their plastic counterparts. These are available from a large range of suppliers, can be acquired online or in building and construction supply stores too Jamb Caps.
Most entry door thresholds are made from steel or a combination of steel and wood. Metal thresholds often have black anodized finishes that are conveniently scratched or dented. Timber limits can be stained, scraped and nicked also. Some manufacturers have now produced plastic covers to shield their specific thresholds measurements as well as consist of the covers with the complete door system. There are other pre-molded guards offered from on-line vendors of short-term defense items. There are additionally a range of tapes that can be utilized for limit security.

The average cost for a cardboard door protector, one cardboard jamb protector and also tape for the limit is much less than 25.00 The price to change simply a door alone can range from a number of hundred bucks to several thousand dollars. On top of that, lots of door guards as well as jamb protectors are reusable so the long-term price for defense is even much less Jamb Caps.
Unclean Secrets to Passing UTME Tests Or Jamb Exams as well as Rating Extremely High Marks
Lots of students that have concluded their UTME/Jamb enrollment assume that UTME/Jamb examination is hard, the fact is that it is as difficult as you make it or see it, for several that understand the key it is not tough in all. However you require to know these factors, prior to entering into the exam hall:
First: Research difficult and also be gotten ready for the inquiries Two: Know the method to address UTME/JAMB exam concerns.
For instance, in the scientific researches such as Chemistry and Physics, the first couple of pages are loaded with calculations whereas the last web pages are straight response concerns. If you are not aware, you will certainly start from the starting wasting time on estimation questions you can solve usually. But if you respond to the uncomplicated concerns first, you would have settled down as well as acquired time before attempting the estimation component.
If Biology is part of your subjects, run through it prior to going to chemistry and also Physics. You will certainly sure get more than half the moment saved for Chemistry and Physics. In Maths, you are rated based upon the number of inquiries you addressed properly. If you can respond to 30 concerns out of 50 as an example as well as obtain them all correctly, you will obtain a greater mark than somebody that tried all concerns with assumption work Jamb Caps.
JAMB/UTME ENGLISH - Review your questions initially before addressing.
Three: Learn to experiment past inquiries as the examiners, regardless of how innovative or crafty, would certainly still bring out comparable inquiries to the previous questions.
Lastly forget about "runs" since most of the "runs" males do not know anything. There are numerous of them that can not speak excellent English as well as still they proclaim to organize "runs" for JAMB trainees. Exactly how do you anticipate the students to go through such "runs"?
Admission Made Easy
Countless pupils graduate each year from secondary schools all over the country (Nigeria). The awful part is that not up to 50% of high school leavers have access to university. There are numerous adding factors to the non accessibility to higher education.
Where finance is not the problem, absence of concrete info becomes the problem, thereby making people believe that college admission is graceful difficult without connection or without having college team as bros, uncles, buddies and also family members. What really precipitates this record is many individuals's view that one can not gain admission into college unless he has actually made up to 5 (5) credit scores in his SSCE. This has made many individuals to simply rest at home composing WAEC, NECO NABTEB, GCE ETC from year to year in order to make at the very least 5 credit scores as they see it to be the very first need in going into university. THIS IS A NORMAL LIE! College admission is not as difficult as you see it. It is even much easier to gain university admission than to safeguard additional admission Jamb Caps.
So, why have you not obtained it? If it is as very easy as I portrayed, why are numerous people seek it from year to year without success? DON'T FEAR; I'M BELOW TO AID YOU!
Many people have actually come to be JAMB clients, they write JAMB yearly as if they have actually covenanted with JAMB. It's either they are not constantly making JAMB or they are crush at article UME. We have actually therefore seen several trainees passing JAMB very well but because of one factor or the various other which might vary from disease, finance, psychological trauma etc, they would not carry out so well in article UME which is deducible to insufficient preparation brought on by the above variables. With this several have actually decided to not to put on any kind of university once more. Some opt for Universities of education and learning, some Polytechnics while others simply follow company, marital relationship etc
. Exactly How to Pass UTME/JAMB Exams Rating High Marks and also Getting Admissions - The Secrets
Trainees planning for UTME/Jamb exams assume that the examination is hard, the truth is that it is as tough as you make it or see it- as man believe in his heart, so is he, for few that know the trick it is not simpler claimed than done in any way. All you need to recognize is the tricks- these factors, before signing up and also going into the assessment hall.
First: Research difficult and also completely prepared for the questions-get pertinent textbooks, preferably the recommended texts and a couple of messages also to aid your preparation Jamb Caps.
Second: Know the method as well as mode to answer UTME/JAMB examination inquiries.
As an example, in the art topics, no estimation is required, so it would certainly be better to start with the subject you are proficient at many first to obtain some amount of time for the various other topics, please DO NOT comply with the order of subjects in the concern paper set e.g LIT- CRK-GOVT as well as you understand that you proficient at GOVT most, after that you have to begin with GOVT and proceed accordingly to others. And for scientific researches such as chemistry and physics, the first few pages are loaded with calculations whereas the last web pages are straight response concerns. Be cautious of this trap. Start with the subject you are best initially, the easy order is CHEM-PHY-MTH or BIO-CHEM-PHY or pick any type of order appropriate and be quick as well as precise as well as you only 54 seconds to address a question (of course less 1 min).
JAMB/UTME ENGLISH- Read the concerns first before addressing and take note of details.
Third: Method, Technique- Find out to practice with previous inquiries with correct and required timing at certain practice sessions as the supervisors, regardless of exactly how imaginative or crafty, would certainly still come out with comparable as well as related inquiries to the questions Jamb Caps.
Lastly, have a favorable attitude for success in the tests and ignore 'runs' because the majority of the 'runs' guys do not know anything.
Complying with the above actions is the simplest and also surest method to discover yourself on your selection institution campus follow scholastic session. Hope to see you on campus next session.

The first from me,
Then a cup, a compass
And finally a key.
If you survive to complete your quest,
The secret door lies to the west. 
The fate of Camelot rests in your hands, this is your most daunting task to date. Don’t let your concentration slip, you can’t afford to lose this one. 
For one last time...
“...The tree house started to spin.
It spun faster and faster.
Then everything was still.
Absolutely still...”
Hello, survivors! This round, you will be participating in multiple competitions to become the final immunity necklace holder of the season!
.
The goal of this final immunity is to score as high as possible over the next TWO DAYS on four different challenges!
.
CHALLENGE ONE: LIVE TRIVIA
Starting at 11PM tonight, you will be added to a challenge chat where random trivia questions will be asked sporadically for the next 24 hours. These questions will be about anything from the history of this season, pop culture, and niche facts that may require a quick google. Your goal is to be the first to answer correctly!
Spelling DOES NOT matter as long as we can tell what you meant to say. If the question asks for multiple answers, YOU MUST include them all in one message. YOU MAY ONLY GUESS TWICE FOR A QUESTION, but once someone aside from you guesses, you can guess twice again (basically you can not send more than two messages in a row). YOU MAY NOT TALK IN THE CHALLENGE CHAT OR YOU WILL LOSE 3 POINTS AUTOMATICALLY!
It would benefit you greatly to study what has happened so far in the game!

YOU MAY NOT EDIT MESSAGES, BUT YOU MAY DELETE THEM IF NEEDED. If you mess up, your score will be set back down to 0 and you will have to start again. We are NOT accepting your highest score, we are accepting the score you leave off on when your five hours are up.

Reading Log
Alexander V. Gutierrez                                  Nature of Reading MTH: 1:00-2:30                    
Book Title: The Girl Who Played With Fire by Steig Larsson                                March 7, 2017 
Part 1:
I understand Salander's actions in the story. These were caused by all of the bad things she went through as she was growing up. She had seen her mother got beaten up by her father which we later know in the story as Zala. The she was put in a mental facility where she was diagnosed as psychotic and she was even raped by her foster father. So all of those experiences in life, made Salander a rebellious mad person. I can somehow connect with the situation of Salander's mother in the hands of her father. She was badly abused and beaten up by him. I can sympathize with her because i know someone who has the same situation as hers. I just won't name her but I know her well. Her husband is a drunkard and beats her everytime he's drunk. I saw the hardships the she went through but she never had the courage to complain or even make a stand about it. It is sad to know but that's just how it is. I know Salander is still very young since she was in her biological father's custody. But why didn't she recognize Zala as her real father all along. It even has to be through a police record for her to remember that. I also wonder what happened to her mother in the story. Can we sympathize or empathize with the villains in the novel? Are they naturally bad or they have depth as characters? Just like Ronald Niederman, the half-brother of Salander, is he a pure villain or is he just a victim of their father Zala. The story is a sequel of a trilogy and I haven't read the other two parts but i think her fortune is still going to be the same but it will also face harder obstacles in life. She will face more enemies that are more evil than Zala and experience more pain and agony as the story transpires.
Part 2: #10: Describe your favorite part. Make a prediction of what will happen next. My favorite part of the story is when Salander finally recognizes Zala as her in father through a police report. Salander hates Zala so much and her hatred only got bigger when he remembered all the bad experiences that she went through on the hands of her father. This only made her want to avenge more than ever. Now that I already know what's going to happen, I'll just make my own predictions as what I want it to happen perhaps a little different from what really happened in the story. So I predict that Salander is going to plot a plan to get or abduct Zala a take him in a remote place where no one can help him. There she will confess all of her sentiments towards her father - this is probably going to be the most emotional part of the story. After that she punish Zala by torturing him the worst possible way we could think of. And for her ultimate goal, she's going to put the tortured and almost dying Zala inside car and burn it just like what she did to him when she was just twelve years old. This time she will make sure that she will get him killed. And finally, Salander will pay all her dues because the police have known her plans. They're going to put her beyond bars for life. After years in prison, Salander is going to realize all the bad things she did and knows that she finally executed her revenge, she's going to commit suicide by hanging herself in her cell.

March 7, 2017
Dear Salander, I have read the story of your life and I can say that it's tragic and full of adventures. Starting from your childhood, you've experienced the dark side of life already. You've seen your mothers abused by your father and because of that you've learned to fight back and make your own stand. You even had the guts to put your father into fire attempting to kill him to take revenge for your mother. You were just twelve years t that time! That's the baddest thing I've ever heard a twelve year old girl has done. How in the world made you decide to do that?
From that day forward, you've went through a lot more hardships and traumatic experiences in life just like being raped by our foster parent among the others. It all carved the kind of person that you are right now. A strong, wise, bad and vengeful woman. And I sympathize you knowing all you've went through. I just wanted you to know that whatever you do in life, I support you as long as you're standing for the right. I just don't want you to do crazy stuffs as i know how you're living your life right now. What if you get into a trouble where you may never fin a way out. It's time for you to think and give importance to life. Can't you just forget about all the bad things and the hatred in your heart and move towards righteousness?
What I'm saying is, don't resort into evil things just to satisfy your desire to avenge to the people who have hurt you before. Why don't you let God enter your life, in that way you will learn to forgive and just forget and live your life according to his will without hurting anyone anymore. There are people who loves you. You can divert and put all your attention to the ones who really cared.
We are not getting any younger, we shall start thinking about ourselves, people and things that really mattered. I really hope that you find peace in your life.
sincerely yours;

Book Title: My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult                                                 March 7, 2017
Part 1:
The decision that Anna made to sue her parents is not a good idea for me. I understand her feelings about the treatment that she gets from her parents, she is often left out for her older sick sister and she is being used to help Kate's medication. But she should've talked to her parents about her concerns and probably they would've sorted things up as a family without getting into legal altercations. I also understand why Anna's older brother Jesse resorted into doing bad activities and habits, not because you think it's good but just because of the fact that she cannot help Kate with her medications and his feelings if being ignored by his parents. All of their attention is focused exclusively on the ill Kate, every child would feel bad about that, even me personally. But I don't think I'll be doing the things that Jesse did in the story such as being alcoholic and burning down buildings, etc. I remember when was seven years old, I was diagnosed with dengue which almost took my life. It was a very serious stage of the disease that the chance of surviving is very low. I needed to be supplemented by new blood every time. But none from my relatives matched my blood type so my parents have to find the appropriate type. Luckily, we found one and I was able to recover and get through that scary moment of my life. I wonder if the patents only gave a little more attention to their two other children? What if they gave importance to her just like how they do with Anna? I suppose things wouldn't have been that way. What if Anna didn't allow things to get into court. What if they gave importance to Jesse? He should've not been a bad person. And what if Anna didn't consult a lawyer and sue her parents? It is still a big question for me why Alexander Campbell chose to help the thirteen-year-old Anna with legal actions. There's got to be a deeper reason why? Its true that Sara and Brian love their other two children but they fail to let them know that. So is it morally righteous for them to conceive another child just to have a genetic match for Kate? Anna died with hatred in her heart. And I believe that if only she didn't let things go to court and have a gap to her parents, that accident wouldn't have happened or she wouldn't have died with that kind of feeling.

Dear Mr & Mrs Fitzgerald, I just wanted to let you know about my sentiments on how you treat your two other children, Anna and Jesse. With all due respect, you have failed to give them the right attention, love and care that they desperately needed from both of you. I understand why all your attention is poured exclusively to your daughter Kate for she is suffering from a serious illness and that she needed your care for her to survive. But don't you realize you’re hurting your two other children? Don't you know that they need your care and guidance too? They are your flesh and blood, they need to be loved and taken care of as every child deserve. Are you that numb not to notice that they have been neglected by you? Just try to look at they have become. They are rebellious, stubborn and bad! Jesse resorted to doing bad thing; Anna chose to get legal actions just to let you see what she felt about your relationship. Just look at how your rejection made your children like that. It's a good idea for you to conceive another daughter, Anna, to get a perfect match to be Kate's donor and help her with her medications. But you didn't think about how would Anna feel about it. She’s been exploited not just with care but to her own health and welfare too. You could've paid more attention to her as she was growing up perhaps things didn't get to that unfortunate tragedy wherein she died with do much hatred in her heart. There’s a lot to learn from this sad experience, Jesse is still alive. It’s never too late for you to reconcile to him. This is the right time to get everything right. Let him know that he's important to you and that you live him too. Maybe he'll turn away from the evil things that he's into and get back to you to fix your family.
Sincerely yours,
Alexander V. Gutierrez
By The River Piedra I Sat Down And Wept by Paulo Coelho Part 1 Pilar has met a friend from her childhood who is now in the seminary. He invited her to attend a conference to be with her and finally confess his love to her. By this, I can already see that there is something wrong. A seminarian confessing love to a woman and wanting to pursue his love? I don’t think so! If someone decides to be in a seminary, he should set aside all of his desire and affection to a woman. For me, one of the biggest things to consider is that he is not just an ordinary seminarian, he has a gift, the blesses Mother Mary comes to her and he is given a gift to heal people. He has great responsibility in other words. I believe that this is the major reason why Pilar is reluctant getting into a relationship whit him even though she is in love with him too. She doesn’t want him to depart and forget his devotion and his gift. I think it would make her guilty if ever. But I can see that there’s great desire in her that’s just waiting to explode, a desire that is wanting to be with this man without any restraints. That desire finally broke off one night after a couple of days if being together. But just as the girl is willing to accept the baggages that the seminarian has. She’s now found her way back to spirituality so they didn’t really need to worry about anything because they can pursue their love without sacrificing the his duty. But this is also the time when he has decided to choose her over his duty. This is where I think everything became worse and it lead to them being separated from each other. And after all the obstacles that came their way, they still fell into each others arms in the end and their love had flourished. I can connect to the story not with the love aspect of it but with the spiritual side of it. Just like Pilar in the story, I also have been away to my faith and right now I’m trying to restore my spirituality because I know this will guide not just me but everyone I loved with our lives. I’m doing this through getting a bit active in school ministries, attending masses and praying all the time. So that’s the only thing I could connect myself to the novel. A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini Part 1 This novel is undoubtedly the most heartbreaking story I’ve ever read. This shows the oppression that the two main protagonists, Mariam and Laila experienced throughout their lives. In the first chapter of the novel, it revolves around the life of Mariam. In reading the initial part of the story, I can somehow foreshadow the kind of life Mariam is going to have because of the emphasis that is given being a harami or an illegitimate child. There’s a great sense of rejection to a harami especially in their culture so what she experienced as a child without having a father on her side all the time to guide her is very difficult. With this, she already has gotten my sympathy. I didn’t know how exactly it would feel to not have one of my parents with me growing up, but I didn’t really have to in order to understand her. As what I’ve said, she is a bastard so she has this great desire to be with her father, come to his place and live with him. She did that, ignoring the advice’s and warnings that her mother told her. She escaped, came to the city where her father lived. But as soon as she arrived at her father’s mansion, she was ignored, she wasn’t even allowed to come in. She waited outside for the rest of the night but still no one from the family entertained her. So she decided to come back home. But as soon as she gets there, she found her mother hanging dead with a rope on her neck. She committed suicide because she can’t take that her daughter has abandoned her. This is really the start of Mariam’s struggle in life. Now that her mother is dead, she doesn’t really have anyone to turn to, her father has to take custody if her now. Just as I thought her life is going to be fine, I was saddened by the treatment that she’s gotten from her father’s family, especially his three wives. Not that they were mistreating her, but they doesn’t seem to like her presence at their house. Things got even worse when they decided to let her marry a man who is much older than her. He is Rasheed, a shoemaker who is abusive and a control freak. Mariam’s life with him is miserable especially when she had miscarriage. His treatment toward Marian is not bad before that. It is sad to think that a husband, when his wants or expectations are not met, he turns his anger toward his wife. From that moment on, he became very abusive to her and that her miseries went to the highest point. In the second part of the novel, a new character is introduced, Laila, woman who has also experienced hardships and suffering in life. She and Mariam got intertwined when she became Rasheed’s second wife after her parents and two brothers have been killed because of war. She became the apple of the eye is Rasheed. It seems as if his enthusiasm has been revived. This made Mariam feel mad and jealous. But just like Mariam, Rasheed’s treatment to her became ill. She and Mariam share the same sufferings, that makes them feel sympathetic toward each other. They became good friends. This is the time when war was waging in their country. Women where prohibited to do a lot of things, their freedom has basically been taken away from them and Rasheed’s abusiveness became seriously bad. This resulted to Mariam having killed him during one altercation. Here I believe that Mariam could not take it anymore. As a punishment, she was beheaded by the Taliban’s for committing the crime. It was not a useless sacrifice because it has given Laila chance to escape with her two children and start a new life. And when the war was over, Laila got reunited with the man she truly loved and lived a peaceful life finally. Part 2 Dear Mariam; I have known everything that has happened to your life and I sympathize you for that. You're such a strong person. You and Laila are and of the strongest persons I've ever known about. Through all the things you've been through, you stayed brave and resilient. It would be my pleasure to ask you a couple if things that are concerning me. Let me start with your childhood, the time you ran away from your mother to find your father in a city you've never been before. I understand that you were still very young to know the consequences of your actions and I know you were so much drawn to be with your father. But you would've taken your mother's words more seriously! her warning, and probably you could've stayed together longer. Not that I'm mocking you but I feel so bad she died that way. How couldn't you trust your own mother? The one that has beeb there since the beginning, the one who raised you, the one who cares no matter what. So you still remember the day you moved in with Raheed after your wedding? The times when he was still treating you like a princess and how he caresaviut your values as a woman. Although you were not the happiest woman because your married to an older man whom you don't really love! But you feel better and secure with the way he handles you. But that was before he had shown his real personality, he's brutal and oppressive nature. Since the day you lost your first child to him. That's the time your life turned upside down, he became mad and always raging. He hurts you physically, he called you names, he cursed you, he took away all your freedom but you remained faithful to him despite all that. How? How could you take all of those things? If I were you, I would've left him long ago! But you endured all of the sufferings and everyone knows it's not easy at all. I commend you for your courage and resiliency, all your sacrifices and hardships. I know that what you've done has been a great inspiration for me and the people who've read your story. I believe that your sacrifices are not worthless. Respectfully yours; Alexander V. Gutierrez

More Than Human: Chapter 9 Liveblog Pt. 1!
“Monday Broke My Heart” It really did :’(
The hilarious irony that BUTCH is the one with the defensive special power hehehehe 
“We'll be moving," Blossom said. "We'll find you," Brick responded, and she went warm. HE'LL FIND HER JKHGFDSATLKGHFD!!!!
Someone please hit Butch.  
"I hope Butch won't," Buttercup snarled. "I hope he gets punched in the sack." SAME!
Kiss With A Fist by Florence and The Machine very appropriately decides to come on my playlist right at this moment xD
BUTTERCUP YOU DON'T HAVE POWERS WTF ARE YOU DOING *FACEPALM*
Butch to the rescue....kind of xD
Butch is absolutely loving this
"I feel like I'm wearing some sort of girl armor," he remarked once they were in the air. "It's weird."
Butch, you fucking idiot!
BOOMER! I know Bubbles is your girlfriend but you grab BOTH girls with no superpowers
Why do people still live in Townsville? One of life's greatest mysteries...
*Cue musical montage of Brick looking like a heroic Greek God*
Oh Blossom...he'll never be the hero you want him to be.
"Oh, in that case," he said, then produced a really big gun from behind his back. "Buttercup has a point," Blossom said. "Where do you hide these things?" A serious question that needs an answer asap
Now Brick to the actual rescue!
Reds screaming at each other...well this feels more familiar xD
Awww it's really adorable how worried Brick is about Blossom. You'd think something like this would knock some sense into his thick skull but no ofc not!
Oh my fucking God Butch YOU DROPPED HER WTF DUDE
She stopped, then looked at Boomer. "I'll give you ten bucks," she said. Boomer immediately slugged his brother in the face. Buttercup later gave him an extra ten for the sound Butch made as he ate the asphalt.
I neeeeeed to know what Bubbles is working on *_*
He picked at a corner of his textbook cover, trying to straighten it and thinking of how easily she had smiled at Robbie. "I can't believe you did that. Without powers or anything. Jumped through glass, I mean. Up from seven stories. And then beat Mojo Jojo, on top of it." He could almost sense her relaxing beside him, her anger giving way to a slight confusion. "You're kind of a beast," he said, and she fidgeted. Brick is totally buttering her up and she is totally falling for it lmao
What a heartwarming father-son reunion xD
He turned on his most beatific smile and saluted. "Hi there, Professor Utonium. Nice to meet you. I'm, you know, Boomer. I'm here to see Bubbles." "Of course," the Professor said, and something curled in Boomer's stomach, something dark that screamed Danger and Doom and Death Will Soon Be Upon You.
R.I.P Boomer...you will be missed :')
I think the real question is what wouldn't he do to you, Boomer? :’) MWAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh man this face-off between Brick and Mojo is EVERYTHING holy shit
"You," Mojo Jojo said quietly, "have been such a disappointment." Brick's eyes flashed. Brick is totally triggered that the one who created him, the one Brick considers to be beneath him, the one who's wasting his talent and brain by staying in Townsville, is disappointed in HIM! You can tell how much this enrages Brick because, unconsciously, he's still looking for validation from Mojo. He wants Mojo to admit that he, Brick, is better than him and has put his talents to better use. He wants Mojo to admit that he's a failure. Basically it's a who's-more-Evil contest. That whole visit was an ego trip for Brick. It backfired. Obviously. Because even with everything he's achieved, Brick is a teenager craving his parents' validation of his life choices but still wanting to be free of them. You can’t have it both ways when your creators are a diabolical evil monkey and the Devil himself. 
Poor Boomer AHAHAHAHAHAHA
"Shut up. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen." The urgency in his voice made it obvious. Mitch meant it. Buttercup looked at the camera, her eyes soft, almost sad, but that smile was on her face, that tiny, scared, and yet deliriously happy smile that lit up her expression, made it almost shine in the dark. Mitch was right. She was... Just wanna point out that this whole scene is from Butch’s POV. He’s the one thinking all of this. One look at this happy, scared, in-love Buttercup and he agrees with Mitch 110%. She is the most beautiful girl Butch has ever seen. Not on a superficial oh-she’s-so-hot level, but more like on a deep I-see-your-soul level. Butch isn’t falling for Buttercup because she’s fucking hot (though obviously he knows she is), he’s falling for her because she’s beautiful and he knows her. He knows her and she knows him and they share a deep, quiet, comfortable and comforting connection that they don’t have with anyone else.
Butch stared at the screen, his jaw sore. He'd been clenching it; he hadn't even realized. It's always a ‘show, don't tell’ with the Greens AND I LOVE ITTTT
Butch is so thrown off by the Buttercup in the photos and videos. He's not used to a smiling and genuinely happy Buttercup and he feels left out that he wasn't a part of that. He's jealous, not just of Mitch because obviously he's jealous of Mitch and the fact that he and Buttercup dated, but he's jealous that he, Butch wasn't there during this time and that Buttercup might have shared a connection with someone else other than him. He's supposed to be her best friend, no one else. And he also wants this Buttercup. He wants that image of her smiling and being happy so yes, damn right, he's gonna keep staring at it until it leaves a permanent print on his brain.
I wonder if he keeps them though...
I love how surprised Brick is that Robin invited them to her party #introvert
Awww @ Brick missing Bubbles in class ❤
Blossom was already there, and she glanced up from her book as he came in. He tried to take his time getting over there. Keyword being "tried" ofc AHAHAHAHAHAHA yea sure Brick as if you didn't attend this class just to see her xD
"If it's free reading could we just leave?" one of the students asked. "Who was that? John? Stacy, hit John for me." There was a whack, followed by a subdued, "Ow." BAHAHAHAHAHAHA...JOHN IS ME THO
since feeling is first who pays any attention to the syntax of things will never wholly kiss you; It's a testament to how many times I've read this story that I now know this bit by heart. LOVE the choice of poem considering who's reading it *winks*
Brick is unrecognizable in this part of the chapter...his feelings for Blossom are intensifying and showing and that's terrifying him but at the same time he's not giving a single shit...so far.
"He started it!" Butch cried, pointing his knife at Boomer. "He made fun of Bubbles!" Boomer cried, pointing his knife at Butch. "You started it," Buttercup growled, pointing at Butch. "And you were the one being made fun of, not Bubbles,"
Ugh Reds are KILLING me this chapter
Brick racking his brain on how to ask her out and growing so desperate that he literally chokes on air bahahahahahaha
THE BOYFRIEND KILLING MACHINE OMG I AM LMFAOOO
IT IS SO A DATE I MEAN COME ONNNNN
Reds at their best and most adorable *_* I LOVE it when they forget themselves and actually get along. I'm in love with these scenes of them and how they're both completely loosening up in a way they never have around other people. THOSE TWO CONTROL FREAKS ❤
This story has made me wanna read Camus ngl
Oh my god I think this is the first time we ever see Brick laughing a real genuine full-on laugh like wow
She swallowed her bite, her guilt dissipating as she watched him take a bite for himself, from the other end of the slice. He nudged the plate towards her. "I don't mind," he said around the fork in his mouth, staring at the plate. His voice sounded odd, a little strained, even. "It's not a big deal. I don't mind sharing it with you." BUT IT IS A BIG DEAL HOLY SHIT I'M DYINGGGGG
BRICK OPENING UP. BLOSSOM OPENING UP. BRICK AND BLOSSOM ARE ON A FUCKING DATE AND I'M LOVING EVERY LITTLE TINY BIT OF IT!!!!
Seriously, the date scenes are my favorite Reds scenes. SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET ALONG LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE YOU TWO CONTROL FREAKS!
"I beat Mojo Jojo up for candy," she said, a little breathlessly. "I let our dad steal toys for us when he was sleepwalking. I stole an expensive set of golf clubs for him." The candy episode is one of my faaaavorites!!
Oh my god, Blossom, you're supposed to be the smart one! OF COURSE HE'S FLIRTING WITH YOU! AND OF COURSE IT'S A DATE!
Brick trying so damn hard to look cool and casual as if his heart isn't light speeding waiting for her answer hehehe
"These are awesome, Buttercup," Mitch said, "Thank you, Mitch." After a pause, she added, "See? No wonder Mitch was the only guy I dated." A sudden, awkward silence fell over the room. Buttercup, seeming to have regretted her attempt at comedy, started to devour her snickerdoodle. Butch stared at her from the corner of his eye. Her customary smirk and hard expression had given way to uncertainty and she was clearly upset with herself. The laugh he forced sounded natural enough, and everyone turned to look at him. "Don't lie, you dyke," he said, still forcing a snicker. "Sorry to break it to you, Mitch, but you were just a beard." CAN WE JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE THE BEST FRIEND THAT IS BUTCH BECAUSE HE JUST DOESN'T GET ENOUGH LOVE! Also also another instance of Butch reading people like a pro and being better at social situations than he’s ever given credit for.
I think Blossom is having an out-of-body experience xD
Brick? A gentleman? And worried about seat belts? Huh...?
OMG BOOMER'S BRAIN GOING ON OVERDRIVE DOMESTICATION SLOW DOWN DUDE AHAHAHAHAHAHA
"I'm fine. Fine. Just... my brain's being stupid." He smirked at her from behind his hand. "You know... just being myself." She settled back, a frown on her face. "I don't think you're stupid." He moved his hand away from his eyes and rested his chin on it. "Thank you for thinking that." THAT IS PROBABLY THE FIRST TIME ANYONE'S EVER SAID THAT TO BOOMER AND IT BREAKS MY HEART TO PIECES
Blues being one in the same *_*
Those two control freaks being spontaneous together ❤
Brick sure is a chivalrous date...who'd have thought xD
Aaaaand mood killed. Leave it to Brick to think of Blossom as "fucking icing on the cake". THIS IS WHY YOU'LL DIE ALONE!
So I decided to split this chapter’s liveblog into 2 parts because I obviously cannot stop rambling and this first part was big enough xD
Click here for more awesome ships to cry over!

More Than Human: Chapter 8 Liveblog!
“With the Girl at the Rock Show” *wink* *wink* 
The change in the Blues' dynamic -in Boomer- is adorable and surreal and definitely healthier. Before this point, Boomer's obsession made me uncomfortable and now that he's so taken aback that she likes him back and she’s the one actually making the moves, he's so thrown off and nervous and falling so hard and just....KIDS *_* 
Mrs. Morbucks = HBIC
I'm still not sure exactly what she does though....? Are we ever gonna find out?
Damn. So why aren't JS's clients looking for other Evil Corps to get their dirty work done?
Buttercup's blankie is making a guest appearance!! Bubbles, don't you dare hurt blankie!!
I feel like the girls' boyfriends would always come out scarred for life after a "conversation" with the Professor. Who knows what he does to those poor souls in his lab xD
Why do you want her to acknowledge your existence so badly, Brick, hmmm?
Hold on. Is that the same Julie from that messed family on the show? Or am I confusing Julies?
He glared at her. "You know, generally? You ask permission before doing that." "Generally you ask permission before letting a giant black spike of death stab a pretty girl in the heart, too," she responded. Daaaaamn, shots fired!
OH MY GOD THE LUNCH SCENE! ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES!! I'm gonna try not quote all of it xD
"You are setting a terrible example as a Senior." "I set a terrible example as a person," Butch corrected. I mean...no arguments there.
Ok, I really don't remember this Julie Bean from the show...
"I wouldn't solicit advice from someone who tried to sacrifice my sister in a dire situation." "That was an act of heroism!" he snapped. "Except it was going after you," Bubbles pointed out. "So it was less heroic and more cowardly," Buttercup said. "Say that a little louder, Buttercup," Brick seethed, his eyes glowing red. "I didn't quite catch that." Unperturbed, Buttercup looked him right in the eye and enunciated, "You're. A. Pussy." DAMN STRAIGHT! 
"Speaking of fucking," Butch moaned. "This food? Is like an orgasm in my mouth."
I wanna taste Buttercup's food :'(
Even Brick's in love hahahahahaha
Did someone say Tabouli? *_* GIMME!
Poor Julie, she's so confused AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ugh, get over yourself Brick. You're like a 5 year old throwing a temper tantrum because he's being ignored. And you did nothing to Bubbles? Really?
"I wish I'd been around to see that," he said, and meant it. He really did. He wished he hadn't been such a stupid little kid. He could've played with her, and they could've grown up friends instead of enemies, and he might've felt this sooner, this easing of an unbearable weight in his heart every time she looked at him, touched him, kissed him. This makes my heart ache. Blues are killing meeeeeee
Brick thinking he's so mature but actually being a complete baby tho AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Eww Butch stahp
THE PROFESSOR WATCHING ALL THE MALES LIKE A HAWK OMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ugh Brick is so stupid I can't even...JUST ADMIT YOU WANTED TO SEE HER DANCE YOU IDIOT
"Butch, boobies," Bubbles said simply, and Butch suddenly shot to. "Where?" he said, eyes frantically darting around. Well that was easy xD
The Blues just standing there hugging tho xD
Bubbles wrapped her arm around Boomer's and beamed at him. "Come on," she said sweetly, encouragingly. Then she looked at Brick. A sudden chill shuddered through him at the sight of her expression, and before he could process it they were already gone. He couldn't even recall exactly what she had looked like as the door shut; it had happened so quickly and caught him so off guard. Bubbles may or may not be possessed but she definitely scares the shit out of Brick :')
That disappointment when you wanna see someone so bad and they're nowhere in sight. I feel ya, Blossom. Let me hug you.
Bubbles is such a little Reds shipper :D
Even I'm overwhelmed by how corny this is.
BUTTERCUP IS SINGING!!!!!
Boomer is outright challenging her. Show that bitch who’s boss, Buttercup!
The more comfortable she grew on stage, the more uncomfortable Butch grew watching her. Bubbles asked, "Butch? What's wrong?" "Great," he said, his voice flat. "She sounds great."
This Buttercup/Mitch conversation is fucking painful. All the would'ves and could'ves....
"I was talking with Mitch earlier," she said quietly, and Butch abruptly decided he'd never really liked Mitch anyway. CAN WE JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE THAT THAT IS ALL IT TOOK FOR HIM TO DECIDE THAT? BUTTERCUP LOOKING SO SAD AND MITCH IS DONE FOR HIM
Butch struggling so hard to understand human emotion though...
"You've never really wanted to be with someone, have you, Butch?" she said, a small, bitter laugh curling around her words. Foreshadowing? :')
I cannot with the Greens. This rooftop scene is KILLING ME I’M GONNA CRY GIVE ME MY OTP PLZ SBJ PLZZZZZ
PERIOD DRESSES AND WHITE WIGS THIS IS ACTUALLY GOLDEN OMG AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh my god these costumes...whyyyyyy
It's interesting how well Brick is getting along with Buttercup and Bubbles. Like friends. Buttercup keeps talking to him and sharing her misery with him, while Bubbles just naturally gets along with everyone and everything. He's even acting like a normal person with Julie! And annoying Blossom, as usual hehehe
I wanna see what Bubbles is working on.
Buttercup jumping at the chance to embarrass Blossom with THAT STORY is what sisters are really for, isn't it?
I really wanna take hip hop classes
Mrs. Morbucks being a sly HBIC :D
Awww @ Blossom feeling pretty. You're beautiful all the time ❤ 
I hate this next part for her...
“Looks, brains, talent," Buttercup said, nodding. Her eyes glazed over. "Plus a chest that you want to... throw rocks at just so you can watch them bounce off." Bubbles shot her sister a look. "Buttercup, you... you're kinda weird." BUT THAT'S THE BEST THING ABOUT HER AHAHAHAHAHA
Fucking pedophile assholes leave Blossom the fuck alone how fucking dare you :(
Buttercup would kick (even more) ass being Evil...I think there was a comic or something where she lost her memories and joined the dark side? 
All these ep references are making me want a PPG rewatch *_*   
Brick wants to cheer her up so bad it's so...uncharacteristic and heartwarming
The AB virus...the only villainous thing the Amoeba Boys ever managed to do...unintentionally xD
BLOSSOM BEING A KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR LITERALLY SWEEPING BRICK OFF HIS FEET I LOVE ITTTT
I think I just fainted," Brick said feebly, eyes shut and breath once again warm and sick against her neck. "In front of everybody." "You crumpled to the floor in a very dignified manner," Blossom assured him. He pressed his head a little closer into her, almost a nuzzle. "So long as it was a manly faint." "Oh, I don't think it could've gotten more manly than that," she said, and turned to the silent room again once she reached his door. Everyone's eyes were still on the two of them. "At ease, men," she said dryly, and pushed into his room. MANLY FAINT AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
H O W did the girls not throw the sharpest object they could find at Butch? I totally would've. Not even exaggerating.
Way to ruin the moment, Brick.
UGH Blues being THAT couple
Someone learned his lesson and is actually accepting help :D
This is probably one of the most insightful conversations about Butch's psyche. His "jealousy" doesn't stem from the fact that it's Blossom, it stems from the fact that it's BRICK. It's not like he has problems getting girls, but, in his eyes, Brick gets everything and then some with no effort....can see why he thinks so. But then again, Brick's still a temperamental man-child with below zero social skills, so I guess you win some you lose some right?  
Buttercup's right though. Butch likes bleeding for things. If he got the same things Brick does while also putting zero effort in it then he wouldn't want it anyway.
SHE'LL BE WAITING OKAY
Hmmm I wonder why Brick is taking so long to recover even though both his brothers were only sick for 1 day...does he have a lower immunity system? Or is it the pretty redhead taking care of him during this difficult time? :')
Boomer's deal with the Devil and how confused he is by Bubbles' horrified reaction... 
There's something so incredibly sad and heartbreaking about Boomer's storyline here. When will Him come to collect, but more importantly, what will he be collecting...?  
Mitch's grandmother tho...very Norman Bates-y xD
Not that into each other, Mitch? I call bullshit! 
MOJO JOJO!!!!!
Awww, same, Bubbles I missed him too hahahaha
Mojo so offended and schooling Buttercup for her cussing tho xD
CLIFFHANGER DUN DUN DUNNN!!!
I really did try not to quote the whole entire chapter. I failed. Obviously xD

More Than Human: Chapter 6 Liveblog!
IT’S THE BEACH CHAPTER ASKHDFGHJKL!!!!!!!!!
The Professor going all overprotective!Dad I’M CACKLING. IF ONLY YOU KNEW PROFESSOR HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. This is a running gag throughout the story AND I LOVE IT!
What the hell is beach blanket bingo? O.o
Awww Bubbles is still waving back that cutie
....and then jumping right into bikini mode BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Be more obvious Blossom. I dare you.
Butch snorted. “Naw, he’s here. Wandering around the beach, all ‘dark and lonely as a cloud,’ or some shit like that.” BUTCH QUOTING A WILLIAM WORDSWORTH POEM LIKE W H A T HOW THO
A small part of me wants to know what the Greens were drawing in the sand. A very small part.
The wind whipped Brick’s open shirt around him as he walked. LMFAO you can totally tell how much fun SBJ had writing this chapter hehehehe.
Flirting face? That was flirting?? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA      
Warning: A polite Butch makes another appearance.       
Oh my god stay away from the food Blossom no one needs food poisoning or the fire department.
Poor Boomer drooling all over the burgers hahahaha
Brick issued her a weird look. She rolled her eyes and stood up, and in a blur of blue Brick was at the grill with the tongs in his hand. He blinked. “What the-” “Get grillin’,” Bubbles chirped, guiding his hand to flip over the patties. Boomer looked distraught at the physical contact. “Hey! First you take my burger duties and now you take my girl?” "I didn’t think I was anybody’s girl,” Bubbles said innocently. “You can have her,” Brick muttered under his breath. All the same, he didn’t bat her hand away. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I love how Bubbles just does not care what Brick thinks or wants she just takes control and forces him to follow suit. Bubbles/Brick 5ever <3        
All the little Bubbles/Brick moments *_* MY HEART IS SINGING         
“Of course you have a choice,” Brick scoffed. “You choose to be a dirty hippie and not eat meat.” Bubbles pouted. “I’m not dirty.” “Wouldn’t object to it,” Boomer said under his breath. "Was that a sex joke?” Blossom asked, narrowing her eyes at him. “Did you just make a sex joke at my sister?” I’m lmfao @ Bubbles being bothered because of the dirty part and not caring about the rest xD Also, protective!Blossom yayyyy :D
All the guys waiting for the moment        
Even BRICK is ogling Buttercup like HAH! 
“Dude.” He gasped. “Buttercup, your arms are so cut I’m not even staring at your tits.” BEST. PICKUP. LINE. IN. THE. HISTORY. OF. EVER. 
Blossom having to literally get banned from home ec tho xD      
I will always always always LOVE how expertly SBJ combines humor with well-placed exaggeration. It’s so fucking hard to get comedy right on paper but this whole story is COMEDY GOLD…especially this chapter.    
A bit O.o and not totally convinced Blossom could ever beat Buttercup in a sport tbh.   
And the tables have turned AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA     
A SHIRTLESS BRICK FINALLY APPEARS HALLELUJAH PRAISE THE LORD       
“Hey!” Boomer cried. “I don’t have a shirt on, either!” “Good for you.” Bubbles said cheerfully. Boomer didn’t seem comforted by this. Poor Boomer xD 
Brick gaped at her. “You owe me a new shirt!” “We can go get one now.” Buttercup said without skipping a beat. “Want to?” So Buttercup and Butch have more in common than you’d think xD   
Buttercup perked up. “Yes, volleyball. Some hot, sweaty volleyball. Doesn’t that sound refreshing?” Something clicked in Butch’s brain. “Hey! Cut that out!” “What? I’m just saying-” “You’re not allowed to find my brother hot!” "Excuse me?” Blossom lowered her hat and glared. “Who are you to cast stones?” Very valid point, Blossom. Also, LOL @ that “something” that suddenly clicked in Butch’s brain.
“Buttercup!” Butch snapped. “His fucking face is up here!” “Yeah, that’s cool.” she said distractedly, not staring at his face at all. “Faces are cool. I’ve got one of those.” LMFAO YEA FACES ARE COOL BUT ABS ARE BEAUTIFUL SO SHHHH. And Butch being so obviously pissed off the second Buttercup started showing her blatant lust over Brick is everythinggggg :D
Holy shit Brick’s gonna blow a fuse after this fight’s over
I know Brick wants the fighter destroyed because of the data it could collect on him and his brothers but is he also trying to...protect the girls?
Blossom’s suspicious
....or not
“Butch, fire,” he said, and in a blast of green there was nothing but ash between Blossom’s hands. Butch is Brick’s to-go-to guy.
So Brick can basically do anything and everything right? Sure...
Damn that was...harsh. Who the fuck is Darius? And why do I already miss the previous JS even though he was never really physically introduced in the story?
Leave it to Brick to be the only one who’s miserable that they’re staying xD
Bubbles/Buttercup sisterly moment awwww <3
D’awww @ Buttercup and Bubbles already missing the boys.
He took her to fucking Hawaii. To talk. On their surfboards. In the middle of the ocean. AT FUCKING SUNSET. BE STILL MY BEATING HEART BECAUSE THIS SCENE IS EVERYTHING.
LOL @ the total inner PANIC!! mode Buttercup goes into when she thinks Butch wants to tell her he likes her. Been there girl. I feel ya.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how Butch is the first of the boys to tell their counterpart that they work for Evil Corp? THAT’S how much he trusts her. BABIES.
“So what are you going to do about it?” he asked, his gaze as dark as the night sky. Now there was light in them, though. Funny how his eyes wouldn’t reflect sunlight, but moonlight lit them up something fierce. Funny how you keep noticing his eyes, Buttercup :’) *whistles innocently*
Blues are too cute walking on the beach holding hands *_*
“That’s really cool.” “Yeah?” Butch’s voice drifted along the water, gentler than the waves that rocked them. Their hands floated close enough to touch, but neither reached for the other. GENTLER THAN THE WAVES AND CLOSE ENOUGH TO TOUCH I AM SCREAMING OH MY GODDDDD!!!!!!
"Hey, you can’t tell anybody else,” he suddenly said. "What do you think I am, stupid?” she scoffed. “Don’t worry about it. I got you.” He raised himself up on his elbows to stare at her. She kept her eyes on the sky, and, after a while, he laid back down. A second later he kicked her board over, sending her rolling into the water, and he laughed as she sputtered and snarled and dragged him in after her. Her “I got you” is so genuine and trusting that it actually makes Butch stop and stare. STOP AND STARE. And the next thing he does? In typical Butch fashion, he ruins the moment by doing something dumb. That’s not because he’s Butch and that’s what he does but it’s because it’s Butch and he’s shocked that she isn’t beating his ass or flying off to tell her sisters and she actually just gets him and it’s nice. That’s why he ruins the moment. Because it’s nice and he’s not used to having nice things or nice moments or normal (kinda) functioning relationships with anyone. I AM EATING THIS UP LIKE CANDY OKAY.
Yup, Blossom is definitely suspicious.
GO RUIN YOUR LIFE AND READ THIS FLAWLESS FIC ASAP. You won’t regret it!

More Than Human: Chapter 5 Liveblog
Why am I going through these so fast? I DON’T WANT IT TO END *SOBS*
Bubbles said blithely, “They do look cute together, but bunnies, now, talk about cute-” I feel ya Bubbles
Cue Mrs. Morbucks bossing Brick around :D
Blues being adorably adorable
He deepened his voice and rumbled, “Join us, Bubbles.” After a slight pause, he added, “You know, your name really doesn’t lend itself to a deep, masculine voice of evil.” LMFAO it really doesn’t tho xD
I swear I wanna quote this whole girls’ scene just because of how golden the dialogue is. From talking about the paparazzi, to the Blues convo, to Buttercup’s Carly Simon reference, to how boring Kris and Blossom are as a couple, to finally ending with a typical Greens call. I LOVE EVERY LITTLE PART OF IT OMG
Brick in a mood...again. Only the Reds would get stuck in such awkward situations.
Blossom turning ice cold the second the cheerleaders started accusing Bubbles and then standing up for her and kicking them out of the studio. Give me more protective!sister!Blossom pleeeeeease. MY HEART IS SINGING!
Hostage situation. Brick is both simultaneously pissed and bored as fuck, Butch is as giddy as a kid in a candy store and Boomer’s pouting because the gunman yelled at him. HOLDS HEAD.
“You ever seen someone’s brains on the outside of their body?” the guy said in a grim voice. Butch started laughing. Brick was unfazed. “Looks like raw chicken fat.” Not really sure I wanna know where SBJ got this discription from xD
“Um, I don’t mean to interrupt, but are you going to shoot him or what?” Butch groaned, anxious. And the Brother of the Year Award goes to....
I love how all Brick had to do to get the boys in on the plan was say “help”. Just one word. Also LMAO @ the gunman thinking Brick’s asking for help for himself. Brick doesn’t ask for help. He commands. And at that moment he was giving clear instructions for his brothers to help the girls out.
He caught it. WITH HIS FUCKING TEETH LIKE WTF AND THEN AND THEN AND THEN HE SHOT IT BACK AT THE GUY’S FOOT OMG
FUCK YEA! I love the fight scenes in this story they get me as giddy as Butch is right now lmao.
"Okay, I’m getting really sick of being a hostage now,” Robin declared, irritated. “This is, what, like the fifth time in my entire life? I need to move the hell out of Townsville!” I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned this about a thousand times throughout these liveblogs BUT I LOVE ROBIN SFM 4EVER OKAY
Yea sure Mr. Gunman. Grab one of the ones with superpowers that’s a smart move *sighs and rolls eyes*
Saving yourself for marriage, huh Boomer? :’)
Brick thinking that Blossom’s reaching for him and actually almost unconsciously reacting bahahahahaha
Bubbles calling Boomer out on why he’s always singing Avril Lavigne songs and him smoothly turning the conversation away from his insecurities. Oh Boomer...
Honestly can’t blame Bubbles. I would totally allow myself to get distracted by Boomer and his easy smile and cheesy song outbursts. Remember those cheerleading uniforms, Bubbles?
Oh yes, she definitely does remember.
Boomer’s door slammed just as Brick’s opened, and a sullen, irritated redhead came stalking up to Butch. He stopped in front of the TV, glaring. “What.” Butch blinked at him, eyes flickering in the direction of Boomer’s room. Then he pointed at the TV. “Can you pass the remote?” Brick stared at him a long, long moment, then turned deliberately and picked up the remote. He held it up for Butch to see, eyes lifted in question, and Butch reached out from the safety of the couch, making grabby motions with his hands- Brick crumpled it into a little wad and dropped it unceremoniously on the floor. LMFAO KIDSSSS
I still wanna know what happened between Brick and Cindy on Prom night.
Is Brick getting promoted in Evil Corp?
Warning: A rare sighting of a polite Butch
Just walking was nice enough. Huh, Butch thought. Nice. This was nice. He stared at the sidewalk and matched his steps to hers. Maybe it was too nice. And next thing you know he’s asking about Mitch. Fucking masochist. Always ruining good things. JUST ACCEPT THAT IT’S NICE BUTCH DON’T FUCKING RUIN IT UGH
aHHHHHH IT’S HERE. One of the sexiest scenes of the story. Blossom in Brick’s shirttttt *_*
And Reds are falling haaaaaaaaaard :D
Cue the Thriller-themed play... 
If you haven’t already read this story, go go go!!!

More Than Human: Chapter 7a Liveblog!
I’m still not emotionally ready for this chapter...
For anyone going through a breakup...maybe hold off on reading this one?
Are hair-touching privileges worth losing pancake-eating privileges? Get back to your seat, Bubbles!
THE PROFESSOR THO AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Long-haired Buttercup *_*
She. is. so. damn. happy. It makes my heart ache already.
MOJO JOJO!!!!!! Missed that rambling villainous monkey :’)
This is the mall attack mentioned in the boys’ flashback chapter.
BUTTERCUP IS ME WITH KIDS RIGHT NOW AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Totally read Mojo’s monologue in his voice not even gonna lie hahaha
“Nice work, girls,” Blossom said proudly, then looked around to find neither of her sisters nearby. She spun in place, searching, and found Bubbles in Will’s arms and Buttercup flying off towards a small grove of trees. "Hey! Listen to me when I talk to you!” She screeched. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 
Buttercup going all soft and shy and just purely happy the second she’s with Mitch is KILLING MEEEEEEE
Who knew Mitch Mitchelson could grow up to be so smooth...
Oh Buttercup, what are you doing...? He literally said he wants to hang out with just YOU *facepalms self repeatedly*
Mitch is pissed af
When is Stinky making a re-appearance?
Buttercup has a flip phone! I love those :D
Ok, so I get where Buttercup’s coming from, especially because this is her first relationship and she doesn’t have any experience with the whole thing. So she gets awkward and withdrawn whenever she feels like she “got caught”. She also doesn’t feel confident enough nor comfortable with herself to act like a normal couple with the boy she’s so obviously (to her and to us) in love with. I totally and completely get that.
But Mitch also has a very valid point. He feels like he has to share her with all their friends all the time and that she chooses their friends over him by not acknowledging their relationship...and that maybe she doesn’t even like him as much as he likes her. It hurts. Totally get it. 
They’re both idiots. They’re also just kids...
Ouch. Damn, that was way out of line, Mitch.
Well, that was bad. And ugly. And messy. And definitely over.
The classic post-breakup haircut :(
"Can’t trust either of you with scissors, honestly,” she said softly as she brushed Buttercup’s uneven hair. “Having been a victim myself, I’d know.” THAT EPISODE THO AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
R.I.P cool flip phone. You’ll be missed </3
That 3-day rule is GENIUS
OCTIIIIII *_* I will never understand how Bubbles wasn’t emotionally scarred for life after that Octi ep from the show.
I’m always here for scenes with just the girls. GIVE ME MORE OF THEM HANGING OUT AND WATCHING MOVIES AND TRASHY TV AND HUGGING AND PATTING AND CONSOLING AND JUST BEING THERE FOR EACH OTHER I WANT ALLLLLLLL OF IT
Sisterly love <3
Buttercup watching trashy TV? Huh? Would expect this from Bubbles tbh but definitely not Buttercup xD
"I’m fine,” she said quietly, looking the Professor in the eye, and then she felt it: the sudden, hot welling of tears, the tightening in her throat, the insufferable weight of a heart heavy with grief. It was like the worst sort of ambush attack, every sense was numb with pain, with an ache she’d never, ever felt before, not in any fight, not ever. The Professor saw it and he closed that distance faster than she could fly (she’d never flown that fast, never) and swept his arms around her, hugging her right as her world caved in on itself. I am not fine.
Fuck. I cannot emotionally handle this scene. It’s one of my favorites but it fucking hurts.
I wonder if Blossom and Bubbles secretly heard her crying...they have superhearing after all.
"He had no idea how much I loved him,” she cried, over and over again as her sisters slept on downstairs and her father desperately tried to squeeze those endless tears away. “He had no idea! I loved him, Professor, I loved him so much!” I AM FUCKING SOBBING WHY SBJ WHYYYYYY
This chapter kills me. KILLS ME.
Do I really need to say it?

He only saw her eyes, sharp and bright and a severe, glowing green.
Bubbles is all nervous energy and anxiousness about Boomer. Totally a date. ~foreshadowing
Ice breath would be such a handy superpower in the Summer in Egypt.
What’s Brick doing in a mattress store? Buying a mattress, obviously. But what’s he need a mattress for? To sleep on, duh! Blossom’s brain stopped working HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Leave it to Brick to turn holding out on buying a new bed as a sign of defiance.
I always found the concept of lucid dreaming fascinating. Sometimes I realize I’m in a dream but I can never control what dream!me does.
So what does a person who’s in control of their dreams...dream about? Coups. Ruling the world. Their own general awesomeness as a person. “Whatever I want.”
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Blossom assuming Brick broke the bed while having sex is GOLDEN
Nervous Reds are adorable Reds
We tried to go somewhere, once. But...we were afraid something would happen.” Reference to one of my favorite episodes from the show *_*
Just imagining the Greens traveling the world together makes my heart happy <3 I WANT IT SO BAD
I love how Butch is so in  tune with Buttercup that whenever she says something that makes things awkward or makes her sad, he always makes the situation better. BESTIES <3
“Ooh, what flavor is that...” Bubbles hovered over Buttercup’s snowcone, and Buttercup handed her her spoon. “I dunno. Red flavor.” As Bubbles partook of her sister’s refreshment, Boomer glanced at his brother’s snowcone, then looked hopefully at Butch. Those green eyes narrowed and shot a warning beam at his brother’s feet. “Dude! I didn’t even ask!” “You asked with those stupid puppy eyes of yours.” The difference between the girls’ and the boys’ relationship in a nutshell xD
Awww Buttercup gave Boomer the rest of her snowcone! Guess those puppy eyes worked on someone xD
Reds having a civilized debate *GASPS* (over mattresses but still!!)
“What are you doing bed shopping?” “He broke his about a month ago,” Boomer interjected. Bubbles’ eyes widened slightly. “Is that so? Congratulations.” AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The Buttercup/Brick eye flirting is onnnn hehehehe
“Are you two done having eye sex yet?” Butch snapped, and Brick, Buttercup, and Blossom all shot him a furious look. “What the fuck is your problem?” Buttercup griped. “His problem is he’s a whiny little bitch,” Brick answered. “My problem is you’re a giant fucking prick,” Butch retorted. Jealous, Butch? :’) 
Long time no see, Him...you give me the creeps.
LOL @ that shadow not sure which one of the Reds to attack
Fuck you, Brick!
She saved you and you served her up to the shadow. Asshole. Damn right, you should feel guilty.
Cue Protective!Sisters attacking him yayyyy
He had just exhaled and his lungs were immediately protesting the lack of oxygen. He tried not to struggle for breath -it was demeaning and pathetic- but with no air in his lungs and his windpipe being crushed it was impossible to avoid. He only saw her eyes, sharp and bright and a severe, glowing green. Oh you know just Buttercup being a TOTAL FUCKING BADASS NBD
Bahahahaha @ Butch knowing exactly how dangerous Buttercup is to his brother right now.
He knew there was only one thing his heart wanted, and it wasn’t- A certain redheaded Powerpuff, by any chance?
Did that thing really never attack Buttercup because she never got close enough? I doubt it.
And the beginning of Boomer questioning Brick starts here. Brick can sense it.
The shadow trying to crush Butch the same way he tried to crush it with his shield tho xD
THE BIG BLUES KISS OMGGGGG BABIESSSS
Brick is not happy.
Bubbles (obviously) dropping the L bomb though!!! Boomer is stupified xD
I do love the total 180 degree change in the Blues’ dynamic.
The next chapter is gonna be brutal...
Go read it!

More Than Human: Chapter 6a Liveblog!
1st flashback chapter!
Enter Penny! We finally get to meet her in person and she’s even more awesome than I thought!
It’s so cute that the boys had friends at Evil Corp who wanted to help them move in.
They didn’t have separate rooms before? Oh god...
Hehehe @ Brick being such a whiny teenager around Penny.
Awww look at Brick obediently doing everything she says.
“I’m not sending your brothers out by themselves. You really think if I send those two out to get two gallons of coffee that I am actually going to get two gallons of coffee?” ”Penny!” Boomer cried, offended, “Don’t you trust us?” “I am so hurt by your words,” Butch said with a sniffle. “Comfort me in your bosom.” Ngl totally laughed out loud xD Oh Butch...
“Low profiles,” Butch nodded solemnly. “Gotcha.” Everybody in the room went silent and stared at Butch. He looked around. “What?” Reverse foreshadowing?
LOL you can tell how disappointed Boomer is that no one in Townsville recognizes them.  ~subtle character point
“You’re so negative!” Boomer exclaimed. “You’re like a modern day teenage Scrooge with superpowers.” Aside from the fact that Brick was right about the banishment, truer words about him have never been spoken xD
Where is “home” for the boys again?
"Hey, once you’re the man in charge, who’s to say you can’t?” Butch hoisted himself up so he was sitting on the railing, legs dangling over the edge. “Although, shit. The way it’s going? Waiting until we’re twenty-one to execute this master plan of yours?” He twisted, planted his feet against the rail, and, still grasping the banister, leaned back to watch the downstairs mall patrons upside down. “I don’t think you can hold out that long, brother.” I love how Butch doesn’t have to say much to be interesting in a scene. His body language speaks for him. There’s something so complex about him. On the surface, he’s the shallow one with brawns and no brain. But I think it’s obvious there’s a lotttt more to him than that. Personally, I think he’s the most interesting out of the boys and definitely my favorite...if that wasn’t already obvious throughout these liveblogs hahahahaha
“Nothing says Christmas like a giant stack of horror movies,” Boomer agreed. Have to agree there
I love how the girls’ celebrity status is so clearly depicted in this story. Shoe endorsements, big screen video montages, interviews, magazine covers, paparazzi following them around, rumors and gossip, ect. Townsville loves their heroes...with all the ups and downs that entails. And it’s nice to see all that from the boys’ perspective as outsiders.
Ahhh and it’s at this moment that Butch’s obsession with Blossom is born.
Brick couldn’t believe that even at, what, sixteen? Seventeen? She was still wearing that ridiculous bow. So true Brick! I mean it really is ridiculous to be so attached to something you’ve worn since childhood I mean-...hey what’s that on your head again?
The girls cornering the boys everywhere in that store tho HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Brick turned to his brothers and motioned: I am going to strangle you both to death by each other’s intestines when we get home. Very curious about how one would motion all that tbh
Saved by the bell!
The boys’ (especially Brick’s) brother/sister relationship with Penny is so heartwarming <3
Avril Lavigne began blasting through the speakers, which did absolutely nothing for Brick’s headache. “Boomer!” he snapped. “What the hell? I destroyed all your copies of her albums before we left!” “I stocked up at the music store when you weren’t looking.” "Kill it before I kill you!” “That reminds me, when is the strangling supposed to be happening?” Boomer queried. “Can I pencil you in at five? You’ve gotta give me some time to unpack first.” That sassy little shit hahahaha. Will never get over Boomer’s Avril Lavigne obsession. And some good ol’ brotherly love and affection thrown in bahahahaha
I have to agree with Brick here. If you’re a villain, why would all you care about be taking over 1 city and defeating its heroes? They have the whole world and they only care about Townsville? Why? Hellooooo bigger picture, people!
What are you even waiting for?

More Than Human: Chapter 4 Liveblog!
PROM CHAPTER!!
“The sheath dress!” “What on Earth is a 'sheath dress?!'”
I wonder who Boomer sounds like...
I wanna taste Buttercup’s food. Give it to meeeeee
I LOVE ROBIN SO MUCH OKAY
sUBTLE LOL
Cue awkward silence the second Butch disappears....
I love how Butch is the buffer like he knows how awkward things are between Buttercup and the guys but he wants to hang out with her so he’s just instinctively including her in everything and i’m gonna die because greeeens
She sniffed his soda. SHE SNIFFED HIS SODA BECAUSE BUTCH SO OFC WTF HAHAHAHAHA
LOL @ Blossom analyzing Kris based on his social status and body language XD
There is nothing cuter than an excited Bubbles
Candice Accola would make a PERFECT Bubbles lbr
Be more obvious Blossom. I dare you.
I’m trying to imagine Buttercup in that dress with the lace and the satin and everything girly and it’s just not fitting in my head BUT I WANT IT
uGHH the Buttercup/Mitch scenes make my heart ache stahp
Cindy let me hug you
I love sbj for making the secondary characters feel so real. Most people don’t even bother with them let alone give them their own feel and voice and make them so lovable.
“Don't take the blue one!” Bubbles gasped. “You gotta scream from the kitchen?” Buttercup griped, wincing. “Can't you run up there yourself?” “Three of these dresses are blue! Which one?!” “The periwinkle blue one!” Bubbles yelled, ignoring Buttercup's request. The dark-haired girl groaned in disgust. There was a pause. “I can't tell the difference!” Blossom finally shouted. “The sheath dress!” “What on Earth is a 'sheath dress?!'” BLOSSOM IS ME *BANGS HEAD*
Why are you yelling when you have super-powered hearing you dorks?? XD
This Buttercup/Bubbles scene always makes me squeeeeeeeeal *_* I mean Buttercup gives her a second serving and doesn’t push her away when she hugs her!! In Buttercup language that’s biiiiig
BUBBLES IS THE CUTEST THING EVERR I CAN’TT
Did I mention Bubbles was my FAVORITE growing up?
Boys in suits *_*
*throws brick at Brick*
YOU’RE SUCH A FUCKING ASSHOLE DUDE JUST STOP
Mrs. Morbucks <3333
Mrs. Morbucks: 956218426 - Brick: 0
Don’t you just love the sound of Brick being shown who’s boss? bahahahahaha
I’m loving Blossom’s dress. It really is her thing.
“No. Brick wouldn’t...kill his own brother.”  Hmmm...wouldn’t he though?
Hehe he walked right into that one.
Butch was the first one to feel the connection towards his counterpart. THE FIRST. BUTCH! 
And and and after fighting her...HE BEFRIENDED HER! He literally became her BEST FRIEND. Meanwhile, Brick's in denial and Boomer is...Boomer. If you don’t see how much more socially intelligent than both his brothers Butch is...I don’t even know what to tell you.
Buttercup (not so) lowkey jealous pissed off. Bahahahahaha
Wow...Brick being a typical teenage boy ogling girls’ legs, alert the media!!
D’awww at Brick doing up their ties for them. Brotherly moments (...kinda) melt my cold black heart.
Boys. Suits. Boys in suits. *_*
I feel like Blossom is a lot more self-aware about her lack of social skills than Brick is. He certainly doesn’t actually want to be social most of the time but maybe also because he doesn’t know how to be either way?
Can I get my own Kris, please? kthx bye
Brick is an asshole. I feel really bad for Cindy.
Blossom is me when I’m thinking about ridiculous things to say just to start a conversation with a guy
Ugh Brick being an idiot...as usual
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA @ Butch just casually throwing a shield between Boomer and Will while ditching Prom 
“I’m not your fucking first boyfriend!” “Then maybe you’d like being my last!” Bubbles shrieked, and threw open the passenger door and flew out as Will sped on. BOOM!!! Adios, Will :’)
Greens *_* They’re so fucking adorable and chill and awesome and besties and he noticed how cold she was so he just draped his jacket on her shoulders like whaaaat since when was Butch ever aware of other people’s emotions and ughhhh just greeeeens 
THE UMBRELLA SCENE ABSOLUTE FAV BLUES SCENE OMGGGG it never fails to make me smile like an idiot :D
That’s it, folks!
I haven’t read the most recent update (OH MY GOD PLEASE NO SPOILERS!!) and I won’t until I finish this liveblog. I’m gonna take my sweet sweet time with this because I don’t know what I’ll do when I finish them all and have to wait for the next update. I will probably cry.
Go read this epic story here!

More Than Human: Chapter 3 Liveblog!
HERE WE GO
“It's... your body just wants to give up, but there's no fucking way you're giving in, because it's like... you feel...” Alive, Buttercup almost breathed. 
The boys' relationship makes me so uncomfortable sometimes.
Buttercup :'(
Oh Blues...
BOOMER. FACEPALM. So close man.
YAY FOR SUPERHERO PRIVILEGES
Is there a difference between Keyboarding class and Computer class?
Butch XD
BUTCH TRYING TO EXPLAIN HIS THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS
“Except then when you're losing and getting the shit kicked out of you, and it's your blood that's everywhere...” Butch's voice was abrupt yet distracted, as if he was talking to himself. “It's like... you stop being a god. Stop feeling like one, because you're bleeding all over the place and you feel like you're gonna fucking die... but the weird thing is even with all that pain...” He bit his lip and took a deep breath, trying to explain. “It's... your body just wants to give up, but there's no fucking way you're giving in, because it's like... you feel...” Alive, Buttercup almost breathed.
God I love the detention scenes <333
Can't argue with the fact that Butch is fucking psycho...but Blossom's point still stands. 
“He's your brother,” she said quietly. “And what you did was inhumane.” “Except I'm not human,” he instantly responded, pushing through the exit doors. “I'm better.”
REDS PARALLEL!!!
I think this is the first real Reds parallel that we get.
Not sure if I'm reading too much into it but I think it's really interesting how Brick says "I'm better" compared to Blossom's "We're better".
Greens being sly little shits :DDD
SHE GETS IT BUTCH
SHE
GETS
IT
MORE THAN HUMAN
FUUUUUUUUUUCK
I'M SCREAMING
I love how the Greens are always looking into each other's eyes. *_*
It's amazing how the boys' interaction can go from oh so fucking uncomfortable to...completely normal.
She ran her tongue over her teeth and considered. “I mean, when you—or at least when I'm losing a fight, it... it takes me down a peg. I feel all pissed off at first, right? And I get kinda worked up about it because I'm supposed to be better than that, you know, with the superpowers and everything. Something above average.” There was a slow grin building on his face, and he nodded. “More than human.” !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His voice was faint but rang clear behind the pounding bass of her music. “You didn't disappoint.”
FIRST GREENS HANG OUT AND BUTTERCUP IS THE ONE THAT INITIATED IT I'M DYING
“Shh. We're having a moment, this dead cow and me. You know, I think I'm going to need about five more of these fuckers.”
THEY'RE LAUGHING...TOGETHER. LIKE OLD FRIENDS. BE STILL MY BEATING HEART.
BUTCH SHIPPING THE PROFFESSOR AND MS. BELLUM THO
I've always wanted to ride a motorcycle...
“Just around the block,” she caved as she threw one leg over and, after weighing her options, gripped the passenger grab rail. She caught Butch turning to smirk at her and glared. “What?”  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I've never wanted to fly more in my life than now.
SHE DROPS HIM BAHAHAHA
THIS SCENE
EVERYONE'S SHELL SHOCKED EXPRESSIONS
SHE SMILES AT HIM AGAINST HER BETTER JUDGEMENT
HE INVITES HER TO SIT WITH THEM
THEY'RE BOTH SMIRKING THOSE LITTLE SHITS
I'M CRYING AND I CAN'T STOP SCREAMING
I'M SO EMOTIONAL RN
“Anyway,” Buttercup interrupted, “we just found out we have... more in common than we thought.” “You mean you're a disgusting, lecherous pig who leers at girls all day?” Blossom said dryly. “Pigness aside, you do have a nice ass,” Buttercup said. “Not that I'm attracted to you or anything, but I can see the appeal—” LMFAOOOO
LOL @ the Reds' complete confusion over the Greens' new found friendship XD
Ooh I love mille-feuille!! *drools*
Butch groaned and slumped, falling backwards onto the floor. “Worst. Brother. Ever.” “Whoo!” Boomer did a little groove. “Back at Number One!”
Bubbles :'(
Boomer!! Sighs and headdesks repeatedly.
FACEPALM @ BOOMER
BUBBLES HITTING HIM HA
Reds bickering makes me want to simultaneously pull my hair out AND lmao which to choose???
I really wouldn't be rude to Blossom now Brick since YOU are the one who needs her help.
MRS. MORBUCKS THO
REDS FREESTYLING IT
THOSE TWO CONTROL FREAKS FREESTYLING IT AJSKFSKDJKSDH
Brick you manipulative little shit
While doing their MTH liveblog, the MTH fanblog mentioned that when imagining Reccardi they think of Giancarlo Esposito and I just wanna say...YES YES YES YESYESYESYES!!!!!!!!
Bubbles being a little Reds shipper *_*
“Don't you have a new best friend to go do that shit with?” “She went to go stop a bank robbery or something.” BEST FRIEND ASJDHSKJ
Butch resembling a 5 year old on a sugar high tho XD
THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE I'M CACKLING
I'M WITH YOU BUTTERCUP I'M CRYING LMFAOOOOO
i can't with the innuendos XDDD
Eww this thing is disgusting
Another wave of screams met the girls, and a horrified Blossom shot off, her sisters in tow. “Bubbles! Crowd control! Get everyone out of here, children first! Zap whatever... babies you run into!” Bubbles looked conflicted. “But they're babies—” “Oh my God, help!” a woman below them shrieked as a whole horde of babies swarmed around her, clacking their insect-like jaws menacingly. “Hungry monster babies on ugly crack!” Buttercup shot back. “Get over it!”
BUTCH STAHP HOLDS HEAD
Boomer...faceplam
Oh Brick. You will not be so cheerful for long :')
...ouch
THAT'S SOME HARDCORE ROSHAMBO'ING WOOT
I really love moments like these. Where the boys are just talking. Brick actually venting to Boomer. The boys' relationship is so dysfunctional that it's like a breath of fresh air when they act normally towards each other...well, as normal as they can get anyways.
The Reds' constant power play gives me headaches.
“Because you dance good!” he conceded in a loud, awkward voice. He grimaced and amended, “Well! You dance well! Christ, I can't even form a sentence!” He glared at her. “Stop thinking it means something!” “I didn't say anything!” “I can sense things!” I'M CRYINGGGGGGGG
I love how Buttercup is just casually hanging out with the guys now because Butch is the ultimate buffer
I'll give you a hug Bubbles c'mere <3
Boomer u cute :')
And that's it for chapter 3!
You can go read this awesome fic here!

More Than Human: Chapter 2 Liveblog!
GREENS FIGHT CHAPTER!!! AJKDJSKJKLSDJ!!!!
"All I Want Is Easy Action or A Kiss With a Fist Is Better Than None" HAH! SUBTLE.
I'm actually strangely happy over Blossom's pain here. She's the only one who hasn't had to deal with the boys while poor Bubbles had to choose between choir and cheer. Not fair.
Ms. Keane. Sigh. I LOVE HER.
Reds are so ridiculous. Stabs self repeatedly.
PARALLELS. I live for those!
BOOMER YOU KILL ME.
BLOSSOM STOP WHAT ARE YOU DOING
...fUCK
What is evil really though?
Butch...HOLDS HEAD.
Brick and Blossom. Still arguing. Sigh.
I still don't understand why Mrs. Yang didn't try to stop them tbh.
THE PROFESSOR. FACEPALM.
PENNY!!!
"You know evil never sleeps, Brick.”
“Any of these got pineapple on 'em?” “No, because only pussies put fruit on a fucking pizza,” Butch said coldly. “Grow some taste buds.” Have to agree with Butch. No offense, but who the fuck puts fruit on their pizza?!
LMAO. I love this scene. Butch's Middle Child Syndrome showing and Brick being all "let him have his fun he deserves it" in true Big Brother fashion. Then getting pissed with Boomer when he makes him feel like a loser. BAHAHAHA.
Forever in love with how sbj took a lot of (mostly) background characters from the show and turned them into awesome secondary characters.
FOOD FIGHT!
I'm with Buttercup. Where the fuck does Blossom get off thinking she could reprimand her for not watching Brick like a hawk when she had the same lunch period and didn't bother to do so herself? That's pretty shitty, Blossom. I'm so glad that that was acknowledged by Buttercup and the text though.
Oh Bubbles...you're so cute I wanna squish you!
What is with guys and their obsession with cars?
I really want to know what's the deal with Brick's...sixth sense?
Sigh. I miss ballet. I miss my pointe.
THEIR CONDITIONS. I CAN'T BREATHE
“I don't give a hundred percent on hip movement,” Brick clarified.
MRS. MORBUCKS. I AM CACKKLINGGGG
Bubbles' smile faltered as she changed her clothes and thought of the cheer squad. They'd flat out ignored her for the past few weeks, and by this point Bubbles was beginning to think it was intentional. BEGINNING?! OH BUBBLES...you are too good for this world.
THIS SCENE ALWAYS HAS ME CACKLING. EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING TIME.
“Cute, yeah! But clearly you are missing the whole Blossom setting the world’s loins ablaze with the perfection that is her body—” "Until she opens the imperfection that is her mouth,” Brick interrupted shortly.
I did not like the beginning of the Blues ngl.
Will. No. Fuck.
Fucking pride.
NO BUBBLES DON'T CRY PLEASE DON'T CRY
Ummm...you ARE a bad person, Boomer. O.o
“I don't care what you think as long as it's about me,”  BOOMER STFU
Reds give me a headache.
“Are you serious?! Did you seriously just call me a cockroach?!” “I don’t care if it sounds stupid!” Blossom shouted. “I’m really angry right now and you’re a very irritating person!”
GREENS PARALLELS
FIGHT TIME
BUTCH
DON'T
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
BUTCH YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE
EVERYONE RUNNING FOR THEIR LIVES I CAN'T
I'M FUCKING SHAKING
BUTCH YOU'RE SUCH A MASOCHIST STOP
This scene with the boys is so uncomfortable.
So. Fucking. Uncomfortable.
“Investment banking,” Blossom said, cringing. “Oh my God, not the giant JS, Inc. building,” he moaned. HAHAHAHAHAHA
That's it for chapter 2!
You can all go right ahead and read this awesome story here! You will not regret it.

More Than Human: Chapter 1 Liveblog!
Let's get this show on the road!
“You don’t count. You make friends with rocks and trees, Pocahontas.”
ROBINNNNNN!!!
Blossom thinking high school relationships are immature...cue introduction of the boys BAHAHAHA.
“I wasn’t talking to you.”
“Who were you talking to, then? Since, you know, Mitch wasn’t listening.” 
Bubbles' sass tho omg.
Poor Bubbles. :'(
BUTCH MAKING FRIENDS. BUTCH MAKING FRIENDS EASILY...can't really call them friends at that point yet but still.
I always found this scene with Butch and the guys really interesting. Gives you insight into not only Butch's mindset, but how the people in Townsville see the girls. Especially how the guys see Buttercup and how tense and grim and defensive they all get when it comes to her. You could not have worse timing if you tried, Butch. 
But ugh! The guys are such...guys ew. Never talk about girls in terms of property/real estate. It's disgusting.
Another thing I love about this fic is that it's very self-aware. If a guy thinks of a girl as a piece of property, it is not seen as an attractive quality. It is not romanticized. The Reds, I think, are treading a very thin line with this trope but sbj is definitely pulling through.
Get off your high horse, Brick. Bubbles is haaaaardcooooore.
“Plus I’ve heard rumor her secret power is in her tongue,”
HAHAHAHAHA
Reds. Tension. Gaaaah.
Buttercup and Blossom ranting about Butch and Brick. LOL.
GOD BUTTERCUP IS KILLING ME.
“Wouldn’t know.” There was a bitter edge to her sister’s voice, and Bubbles turned her attention back to Buttercup. “She never tells me anything, anyway.” 
My heart breaks for Buttercup so much whenever this issue comes up. And it's always there just lurking. Being left out sucks. And I feel extra bad for Buttercup because (as much as she tries to hide it) she has enough insecurities as it is.
MRS. MORBUCKS!!!!!! <3<3<3
BUBBLES U CUTE!
I love Greens parallels. :D
BOOMER YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT.
ROBIIIIIIINNNN!!!!!
As she watched Bubbles and Buttercup get absorbed into the party crowd, Blossom suddenly felt—though let it be taken into account she never let it show—awkward and a little fearful.
This is one of my favorite Blossom moments in MTH so far. This is the scene that got me interested in Blossom. As much as she tries to hide it, she's not as social as Bubbles and even Buttercup to an extent. She can't just go up to a bunch of people and mingle like Bubbles and she doesn't have any real close friends she would hang out with like Buttercup with the guys (let's ignore the fact that they're not talking as of yet), except her sisters and, as seen one paragraph later, Robin. She's always been too busy doing her own thing to start making best friends so she never bothered. I think a lot of people (me included) can relate to that feeling of being completely out of your element when left alone in a new environment. That awkward fear as sbj described it. I could get more into this (and oh do I really really want to) but this is getting long enough.
“Evil doesn't sleep, and neither do I.” 
And it is in this scene that we first discover Boomer's obsession with singing Avril Lavigne songs. Best.
The hate on Cindy is ridiculous and oh-so-typical.
Brick picking up all these artistic talents like art and dance and even photography, really says a lot about who he is as a character. I think sbj mentioned this before. He wants to appear as very sophisticated and worldly to hide the fact that he's really...not. Being talented won't make him any less of an antisocial asshole. That's why girls drool all over him. It's in the way he presents himself. Being all mysterious and distant and shit, and he's a guy who's extremely smart and can also dance and draw. A big attention magnet. But what you see is not what you get because he's actually a completely self-involved asshole and, unlike his brothers, a terrible people person.  
Oh, Butch's Middle Child syndrome. He's a pig and a jackass but I still feel really bad for him.
THE BOYS' TAKING BETS AND COMMENTATING THE GIRLS' FIGHT THO.
I have an immense amount of love for this scene.
Food for thought: I know the boys have been working for JS inc. since they were like 14 and Brick keeps going on about how the girls are amateurs, but does anyone really think the boys actually stand a chance against the girls in a fight? The girls are way more experienced. The boys may work for JS inc. but I find it highly unlikely that they battle monsters on an almost daily basis. I'm guessing all they have to deal with is probably trained armed men and dangerous weaponry that wouldn't kill any of them anyway. Besides that, if the girls can't beat them in a physical fight then they can easily outsmart them. They've already done so a couple of times in show!canon. So I find it highly ironic that BRICK is the one judging the girls' fighting techniques. Because of that, I also really want one of the girls to cause him unimaginable physical pain. It would make my heart sing! I'm putting my money on Bubbles. Would serve him right.
Butch underestimating Bubbles. HA!
Now Brick underestimating Buttercup. He's kind of right about her in a way but he also doesn't know Buttercup. She never backs down.
Ahhh I take immense personal pleasure when Brick is proven wrong.
Butch's blood lust coming into play. Dude needs a good fight. Heh.
“That was... pretty impressive,” Brick permitted, eyes widening ever-so-slightly.
THAT'S RIGHT, BRICK. That's how you never underestimate Buttercup. BAHAHAHA. 
Shut the fuck up, Brick. Buttercup's been doing this since before you were even thought of. Girl knows her shit. She's not called The Toughest Fighter for nothing after all. I'm very protective ok shhh.
Butch scheming. Not good.
Oh Bubbles. I feel ya, bb.
This scene is giving me major dance class flashbacks. I'm feeling nostalgic. I miss dancing.
I love love love Brick and Bubbles' scenes. Looooooooove. <333
I can totally imagine Candice Accola nailing Bubbles. Her sweetness mixed with her hardcore badassery...she would definitely pull her off. Flawlessly.
You'll be eating your...thoughts in no time, Brick. Hah.
I can almost feel this dance in my bones. Way to go sbj!
MRS. MORBUCKS!!!!!
End of chapter. More to come! :D
You can all go right ahead and read this awesome story here! You will not regret it.
