TftW: The Art of Being Art.

Art Weber (Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom) TF.

Nathan was known for his love of a lot of actors and movies…his main favorite actors consisting of Christopher Walken, David Bowie, Danny Trejo, Corey Feldman, Chris Sarandon, Sly Stallone, George Clooney, Jeff Goldblum, Jack Nicholson, Tony Todd, Billy Zane…to name a few but his absolute favorite was Dan Aykroyd. He had been raised on SNL and Animal House when he discovered John Belushi and it was through The Great Outdoors and Uncle Buck among others he had discovered John Candy.

In 2020 he stumbled upon a little rabbit hole known as the Aykroyd rabbit hole and had gotten hooked ever since and this experience got better for him once he discovered he could gain himself a were-Aykroyd alter-ego of sorts, which he did after having numerous dreams about turning into him, which made him stumble down further the Aykroydian rabbit hole and discovering a discord server that to his surprise…really was fascinated by his work, and he wrote tons of stories about Were-Aykroyds and his alter-ego as a King Were-Aykroyd who used his powers to help others and fight evil.

He made a new online friend in the form of Joe aka Ghosbustr on Deviantart and Joe really wanted to be a part of the action because he was a huge fan of Nathan’s stories and of Nathan in general, he of course liked the idea of Dan the Were-Aykroyd meeting him. He kept in contact with him for the next couple of years, and now it was 2023 and it was a very important day for Nathan. You see it was July 1st, which was Canada Day…now Nate himself was not Canadian but his Aykroydian alter-ego was, and also it was Dan Aykroyd’s 71st birthday, Nathan never forgot Dan’s birthday and definitely knew Dan would approve.

To celebrate and also because his newest friend Serena did an Indiana Jones character transformation which she showed him (which he liked a lot), he decided to also do an Indiana Jones character but not just any character…Art Webber, the fast-talking British military officer that was played by Dan in ‘Temple of Doom’. Although the character showed up only at the beginning, it was still quite a fascinating appearance from Dan.

It made sense since Steven Spielberg who produced the Indiana Jones franchise had a cameo in The Blues Brothers and also directed 1941 which was the first big American movie Dan had appeared in. He was on his computer that day when there was a knock at the door, he answered the door and he saw what appeared to be a package that was for him, it was from Ghostbustr. ‘To Nathan, keep on rockin, you gallant AykroydianKnight. You have brought me so much joy and chaos, and now i’m repaying you and your alter-ego. Even though you aren’t on the server anymore, I am still going to be with you. Yours truly, signed Joe.’

Nathan picked up the package and opened it and what he saw was a screen-used costume from the movie that was worn by Dan himself along with a signed autograph and a special totem statue. He set up the totem statue and pressed a button, making the statue's eyes glow. Just then a spirit emerged from the statue.

His supernatural sense went off as he saw the spirit, the spirit looked like it was a spectral version of Dan himself and before he could catch him, the spirit looked at him with a mischievous look and dove down into his mouth, entering his body and possessing him in the process. ‘Hey…that was uncalled for. But hey, if you’ve been here long enough you’ll know it’s going to happen anyway.’

A series of tingling sensations started to spread throughout his body as his stomach gurgled, this was definitely the first sign of his transformation as he saw brown hairs developing on his stomach which was also growing a little bit as his skin matured a little and lost imperfections, in addition to this his arms broadened and lengthened, the same hairs grew on them in the process. ‘Just like in my Were-Aykroyd stories only for real.’

His chest and torso broadened a little bit as some hairs grew on the former, his hands enlarged as his clothing slowly changed into a beige colored military attire, his legs had lengthened a little bit, he decided to take his shoes off to watch his changing feet which were enlarging, and also two of the toes on each foot were sticking together at the knuckle, giving him webbed toes just like Dan’s. He looked at what appeared to be a pair of boots with the same color as his new uniform and he put them on.

In terms of his writing he never intended the process to be so oddly entrancing/alluring but the people at Simp Central always interpreted it in that fashion and he wrote it as such because of that, he felt his rear for a bit which plumped up, and his back broadened. He grew in tight from 5’7 to 6’1 as his shoulders broadened, a red scarf appeared around his neck. His hair darkened a bit and took on a similar style to Art’s only it was a bit longer, as his eyebrows thickened and one of his eyes turned from brown to green while the other remained green.

His nose altered in shape and developed a cleft down the middle as a mustache of sorts grew above his lips and his features shifted to look distinctly Aykroydian, that wasn’t the only thing Aykroydian about him though, as his voice altered to develop Dan Aykroyd’s signature Aykroydian tone and speaking style as well as similar speech patterns before developing an English accent.

From what he could tell he looked and sounded exactly like the character but the best part was he was still himself, that is how he always did his character transformations, he always made sure the person transforming was still themselves mentally, and he always felt a great deal of disdain towards character transformations with mental changes, he was fine with people turning into characters they liked but the mental aspect ruined them for him. It just felt needlessly dark and depressing with no good end insight. He remembered not liking Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure at first because of all the character tf-fics of that variety hence why he decided to do his own in a way he felt comfortable with.

Of course his own character tfs in general rarely used MC as an element except in some cases, but he never made it so the people transforming were unable to live their usual lives afterwards, his Aykroyd tfs were very much also a subversion of those types of monsters that he felt got portrayed as being hive-minded despite not being like that, such as werecreatures…he felt that there was no right or wrong way to play a werecreature but given his friend Werebelushi In Shades was one, he could understand why his friend was offended by the portrayal of werewolves in one little roleplay he had experienced, of werewolves being portrayed as hive minded bigots who hate humans despite being part human themselves.

He thought the people roleplaying with those types of characters were trying to be species-ist towards werecreatures. And having had his own share of problematic people who overuse the world domination ending and face heel turn cliches over and over, he felt he could do better than them and he wasn’t being arrogant when he thought that. And of course being turned into characters himself helped with the experience.

As his transformation completed itself, he was very much a perfect doppelganger of Art Weber but with his own personality and memories in-tact. He looked around for a bit before sending a text. ‘Hmmm, I think Joe should see this.’ He sent a message to Joe/Ghosbustr explaining what had happened to him.

Joe was ecstatic when he heard the news, as he came to visit Nathan. Nathan gave him a hug and explained everything that had happened…’You know those stories I write, well they’re real, i’ve got Were-Aykroyd powers.’ ‘I knew it! I knew you definitely weren’t faking it. I knew your alter-ego was real.’ ‘And he most certainly is real. And he has something he wants me to give you.’ ‘A present?’

He presented Joe a trinket he had found, it was shaped like one of Dan Aykroyd’s Crystal Head bottles and had an inscription on it. ‘This skull grants wishes, he can also give you powers like mine so you can be a Were-Aykroyd too.’ ‘Awesome, thank you.’ ‘No problem, pal.’

Nathan also thought that it would be a good idea to give his pal Werebelushi In The Shades something…’Hmm. You know I feel bad for him, the producers of the show make him review the stuff featuring that phoenix called Ciel Scarlet and yeah…some of those are okay, but let’s just say i’m very ashamed of having liked those in the past. Especially after the Puro stuff and what that transfur bastard nearly tried to do to Mel.’ ‘What did he do?’ ‘Sexually violated her.’ ‘Ouch.’ ‘That’s why i’m sending him something to cleanse him and give him something good.’

He sent his friend Matthias/That Werebelushi In The Shades a special story he had written himself about him meeting the Aykroyd characters, he even wrote a story in which in an alternate universe he had become a Were-Aykroyd and that spawned an unlikely partnership for Matthias in the form of his Were-Aykroyd counterpart. He also wrote a couple of cute Corey and Oats adventures for Mel to take the microbe and equine duo on.

“You sure are doing a spectacular job of being a good friend.”

“Yep…and you’re an amazing friend too.”

“You really mean that?”

“Yes, I do…Joe, without you I wouldn’t have become an Aykroyd fan.”

“I am glad to have helped you.”

I WISH MY COHORTS WEREN’T SO DUMB

BIDDI BOPPI BOOP A SPECIAL MESSAGE ADMIN ZULEMA: welcome to walt Ash ! The Teague siblings are characters that I hold near and dear to my heart. They’ve always been my favorites of the nightmare gang since we opened. You captured Sadie beautifully in your app. You understand her well and I have complete faith that you’ll transform her into something magical. I’m ready for PAIN. Also, I love your passion for the nightmare before christmas. It’s one of my favorite movies as well so I know you’re going to kickass as Sadie Teague. You have 24 hours to send in your account. Please refer to THIS PAGE for your next tasks. We can’t wait to roleplay with you. Welcome to our Ohana xx.

It’s a pleasure to meet you…

Hi darlings, I am Ash, 22, GMT \ She/Her.

Not entirely random but.. I have a TNBC tattoo on my arm, I have seen TNBC live in concert with Danny Elfman, Catherine O’Hara and Ken Page and I think I love my cats more than most humans.

Triggers; Not really triggered by per say but not comfortable writing sexual assault.

Are you positive you can be active?

I can be very active in my evening time on weekdays and all day on my days off, weekends not so much as its the only time I see my partner and friends. On a scale i’m about a 7/10 but at the moment im on covid-19 lockdown so I am very much available to write for the next two weeks at least.

How did you stumble upon Walt?

Through the Zane Holtz tumblr tag!

Did you read the rules?

Yes indeedy!

Are you sure?

Character you want?

Sadie Teage

Please describe the character for us

I would describe Sadie as the Star tarot card flipped upside down. A girl with so much potential and love and trust in her heart that was cruelly ripped from her by the real world leaving her distrustful, angry and prone to self sabotaging for her own protection . A girl who could have been a kind reflection of her mother or as brilliant as her brother Logan but who had her self confidence poisoned by her malicious father and his evil ways. A girl with a guarded heart and no faith in humanity, a scorpion in a world of frogs. A girl who deep down is still suffering silently, wanting for a better life but never being able to see past the next rent due day. A girl who constantly counts her pennies to keep food on the table for Beckham, who never once lets herself live because she is too afraid of what would happen if she did

Second character choice

No secondary character interest at this time.

It’s time to see that sample para.

Sadie’s dry and cracked lips rested against the battered, old chipped mug that held a substantial amount of bitter black coffee, the heat from the liquid rose up danced against her sharp chin as she shivered all over. The apartment felt as cold as Dante’s Inferno and as her bony fingers decorated with thick rings clutched onto the mug for dear life her gaze drifted towards the open door of Beckham’s room. Sadie exhaled shakily, allowing herself the time to collect her thoughts before her younger brother returned home. Against the plug on the kitchen wall and attached to a charger falling to pieces her phone began to vibrate itself to the edge of the counter. Sadie caught it with one hand just as it began to dangle and frowned at her landlords name across the screen. Locking her phone she placed it back down on the cool counter and rolled her eyes at the charger that had given up. “Piece of crap.” she muttered walking away to the kitchen table where a small notebook containing numbers rested. Setting down her steaming mug of will to live, Sadie propped her hair out of her face and took a seat alone at the table.

Budgeting; something Sadie was not the best it but something that was a necessity to how she survived from week to week. Her income stretched as thinly as she could possibly make it to have her ends met, the empty cupboards mocked her as she scribbled down a grocery list of baked beans, rice, coffee, bread, eggs, milk and porridge. Her gaze once again shifted to Beckham’s room as the temptation to borrow a few dollars built up inside her but almost as quick as it appeared Sadie ushered it out of her brain feeling sick. “New low point Sadie.. new low point” she sighed. Sadie was all too used to ‘borrowing’ from people, a five finger discount at stores, a free sample enthusiast but taking something from her family was a level she couldn’t bare to bring herself down to. Drumming her fingers against the table Sadie pondered on whether or not to contact Logan about her financial situation, ask Beckham contribute more and buy his own damn sugar if he wanted it that badly but she sadly shut down the thoughts feeling guilty. Even know she still wanted to protect them in her own way, not letting them know how bad things were getting would save them in the long run or at least that what she told herself.

Sitting back against the old wooden chair with a wobbly leg Sadie reached for her mug and swallowed a hot gulp of coffee, grimacing at the bitter aftertaste, maybe Beckham was onto something about his sugar. “Fuck– what am I supposed to do..” she whispered to the empty kitchen. Rent was due, the heating was broken, the cupboards were empty and her phone was about to call it a day. Everything was crumbling down around her, the fresh start she swore to herself would be different was now looking more like a hopeful dream she used to have a child. Sadie felt foolish, how did she let herself think she could be anything other than a pitiful, useless child. Tears stung in the back of her eyes as she tried to push back the overwhelming memories of her Father’s violence and heartbreaking words. Sadie knew from a young age she wouldn’t amount to much, that was Logan, she would always just be trailing behind on his coat tails keeping the electricity running. Hot tears ran down her face as Sadie began to imagine her life turning out like her mother’s, no escape from poverty, no happiness, just three rotten children and a house falling down around her.

Quickly Sadie rose to her feet pushing back the chair, she wiped away her tears with the sleeve of her shirt and wiped her nose after. She began to make her way across the kitchen breathing deeply to contain the emotions. Crying wouldn’t solve anything, but getting shit done would. Sadie unplugged her dead and gone charger from the wall and picked up her phone before walking back to the table. She grabbed her jacket off the chair back and her note pad from the table, stuffing it into her pockets. Walking towards the apartment door she fumbled for her key and began to type up a message.

[MSG; ORION]:: hey. you around? feel like causing some chaos.

Anything else, love?

I haven’t rp’d in like two years so this is me kind of coming back to the scene. Very rusty but if I am successful in joining your lovely group I hope to get back to speed and relearn everything all over again.

Also i am kind of obsessed with TNBC so I apologize in advance!

After that article about Norman Lear circulated earlier this week I could not help but begin to fancast a new The Princess Bride film!

Disclaimers : I ADORE the original movie! I adore the original novel! A thing I want to impart upon the participants in the current zeitgeist of outrage "culture" is that, when something gets remade guess what? The original is still there for you to enjoy. No one is trying ro stomp on the stuff you love.

Also, there are instances where things get rereleased with changes made and the old ones do go away or become very expensive to acquire. In that instance, yes I don't like that. Han Shot first, Yama did call Tetsuo a peabrain and I don't know…the new dialogue track for Drunken Master really does not have the same humor in voice acting that the original exudes.

But I digress. If They'd Let Me cast a new The Princess Bride, my main desire would be to keep most of the original dialogue and plot points. The film is hilarious and even more so cuz it is as far as I remember, superrrrr close to the book. The only thing I'd alter just a bit is; I would shoot some flashback scenes of Westley with the previous Dread Pirate Roberts and enlist Cary Elwes to play the role. I would _still_ have Westley narrate it tho. I think. 😸

So to break down rhe image above for those who don't know these actors here is a List!

Westley - Steve Yeun

Fezzik - Nonso Anozi

Inigo Montoya - Diego Luna

Princess Buttercup - Janina Gavankar

Vizini - Danny Devito

Miracle Max - Robin Wright

Valerie - Aisha Tyler

Prince Humperdink - Billy Zane

Count Rugen - Jemaine Clement

The Impressive Nun - Margaret Cho

The Dread Pirate Roberts - Cary Elwes

More Disclaimers! : So I'm not sure if you noticed but the cinema representation of Medieval Times is almost exclusively white and heteronormative. I mean look at some of the most well known movies from that genre and non-white people are greatly lacking. It is wild that for example, Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones has no problem depicting stuff like elves and dragons and magic but cannot imagine a fictional kingdom using African lore as inspiration. It took Black Panther and Coming to America before it being made to show audiences this possibility. It is also crazy to me that these are pretty much the only two. I mean Uwe Boll had a black knight in one of his movies good gravy, if you get beat by Uwe Boll what are you even doing being on set.

So you can see with this fancasting I diversified the ethnicities of the roles. I added a same sex relationship. I put in a female member of the clergy. I don't know about you but this movie, with this cast, with the orignal script, shot on location, shot in HD, with updated set design and choreography and effects would _blow_my_mind_🤩👍.

P.S. I'd also love to put Fred Savage in old man makeup and have him be the one telling this tale to his granddaughter 😉

The End

You Was Oblivious To It: Part 2 (David Dobrik)

-20 MINUTES LATER-

DAVID’S POV

I sigh as I walk back into the living room after helping Danny rinse the pepper stray out of his eyes

Realistically, it was a bit of a stupid idea but he wanted to do it for my vlog

I walked down the hall from Jason's room and I see that Jason, Zane and Jonah are looking out the window

"Hey guys, have you seen Y/N and Drew?" I ask as I walk up to them

"Shhh! That's what we are looking at" Zane scolds me

I quickly walk over and stand in between Jason and Zane

I look out the doors to the garden, to see Drew and Y/N sat on "The Rock" as I called it the other day

Laughing and chatting about stuff

I noticed that Drew was still only wearing his boxers

This annoyed me a little, because he was just sat around Y/N like that

What?

It is of no secret to myself, that I have liked Y/N for a while now

I just never got the courage to tell her

So I made bad jokes and puns to drop hints

But it clearly never worked

It's like she just doesn't see it or pick it up!

He laughs at something, she just said and he puts his hand on her thigh

The anger starts to pump through my veins

"That isn't good" I hear Zane mumble

"Why?" I ask quietly

"Because I heard that Drew was in a boyband and when Y/N was talking to him, I heard her say she was a big fan" he explains

"Right? What has that got to do with anything?" I question

"David, it's an adorable boyband member, she will be putty in his hands, who can compete with that?" Zane says with a shrug

"I sure as hell can!" I declare before I push the door open

Before I know it, my feet are carrying me over towards the pair of them

As I walk over to them, I see Drew look towards me before talking to Y/N

This makes my blood boil even more because I can tell he is talking about me

I get over to them pretty quickly and I look between them

"Y/N, can I talk to you alone for a minute please?" I request with gritted teeth, looking at Drew the whole time, that I am speaking

"I think I'll just get out of the way, I'll speak to you later though Y/N?" He questions as he gets up and begins to walk away as well as looking at Y/N

"Sure, don't forget your towel" she says as she throws it at him and he catches it with a chuckle

“Don’t forget what I said” Drew says as he walks away, which causes Y/N to roll her eyes

I wait until Drew walks into the house, before I sit next to Y/N in the spot, where Drew was sitting

I run my hand through my hair before I turn my body towards her

“David, are you ok? What’s up?” Y/N ask as she puts her hand on my knee

I sigh as I turn my head towards her to look at her

I decide to just be forward with what I wanted to say

"Do you like Drew?" I question

She shrugs

"I mean he is a nice person but I don't really know him yet" she says

"No I mean do you like, like him?" I ask

Y/N chuckles as she shakes her head

"No I don't sadly, he isn't my type" Y/N admits

I let out a deep internal sigh as she says that

At least, he isn't her type

"Why did you ask?" She questions

My mind goes into a state of panic, not knowing what to tell her

"I was just wondering because you looked pretty interested in him, I mean he looked interested in you" I ramble

"I mean I'm just saying from a best friends point of view" I continue to blab on

Y/N laughs once more with a smile

"Thank you for caring about me, best friend and I'm telling Jason you called me your best friend" she says as she gets up off the rock and begins to walk away

"Wait, can I just ask what is your type?" I ask boldly

She hums in response, clearly thinking

"Vloggers" she says with a cheeky smile

Before turning and walking away again

I get up and go up to her and gently grab her arm

"What kind of vloggers?" I question

By this point, I think it is clear why I am asking but I think I'm just going along with this in case it isn't

"I like vloggers with long hair, around 9 million subscribers and also who are oblivious to their best friends feelings" Y/N explains

Well I'm all of those things...I guess?

I move closer and she wraps her arms around my neck and pulls me closer to her

My hands automatically go to her hips

"My type is also people, who are oblivious to their best friends feelings as well" I say with a cheeky smile

She chuckles

"Well that's lucky isn't it?" She states retorically

I laugh at her comment

"So I'm guessing I'm your type then?" I say with a small smirk

"I guess you are" Y/N says looking from my lips to eyes again before she leans in

I lean in and soon enough our lips meet

As our lips meet, they move in sync together and it just feels so right

Like it was meant to happen

I wrap my arms around her waist and pull her impossible close to me

After a few moments of kissing, we pull away and I rest my forehead against hers

I smile as I look at her

"So what does this make us?" She questions

"Anything you want, but right now I want to stay in this moment forever" I admit

Y/N chuckles

"Can't believe that, you was oblivious to it, you couldn't see what was right in front of you" I mumble to her

"No David, we was oblivious to it, we couldn't see was right in front of us" she says with a smile

Silence falls between us for a moment, whilst we take in the moment, before I speak again

"By the way, what did Drew say to you before you left?" I question

"That he thought that you liked me" she explains

I hum

"He's a smart kid, I like him!" I say with a smug smile on my face

Y/N rolls her eyes, with a smile

"Oh shut up David" she says before she leans in to kiss me once more

I smile back at her, as I lean in and join our lips together before they move together in sync

In this moment, I knew the time was right for us

I knew this is right!

A/N: If anyone wants to request an imagine (vlog squad or another fandom, like my other imagines) feel free to do so! My message are always open! :)

Okay I had been really looking forward to redoing the Degrassi character sorter once I got through Next Class and actually knew all the characters, and I just did it and the results are FASCINATING (to me at least lmao).

Clare Edwards

Eli Goldsworthy (when I had to choose between Clare and Eli, I chose “I like both” to let my other answers decide for me, so this is v interesting!)

Tiny Bell

Shay Powers (ditto for Tiny and Shay.)

Marco del Rossi (overtaken by Tiny and Shay!!!! I’m floored.)

Grace Cardinal

Goldi Nahir

Jimmy Brooks

Jane Vaughn

Maya Matlin (so high?!?!!?! And look how many NC characters in the top 10, whaaaaaat?!)

Fiona Coyne

Ellie Nash (out of the top 10?! Those college years really soured me apparently.)

Adam Torres

Mike Dallas

Zoe Rivas (NC was a total revelation.)

Emma Nelson

Holly J Sinclair

Alli Bhandari

Winston Chu

Cam Saunders (I found it so hard to decide what to do with him because we only had him for a season!)

Yael Baron

Lola Pacini (literally one season of growth sold me on her.)

Manny Santos

Zane Park

Sean Cameron

Jake Martin

Jay Hogart (would’ve liked him more but his shitty early seasons couldn’t be overcome.)

Bianca DeSousa (ditto.)

Jenna Middleton (ditto.)

Terri McGreggor (it’s hard to choose her over anyone when she was around for such a short time!)

Spinner Mason (he was so garbage for so long. Don’t think I’ve forgotten.)

Connor DeLaurier

Saad Al’Maliki

Riley Stavros

Imogen Moreno

Miles Hollingsworth

Hazel Aden

Sav Bhandari

Zig Novak

Craig Manning

Alex Nunez

Toby Isaacs

Frankie Hollingsworth

Darcy Edwards

Drew Torres

Tori Santamaria

Ashley Kerwin

Katie Matlin

Mo Mashkour

Johnny DiMarco

KC Guthrie

Mia Jones

Kelly Ashoona (why is he even on the list?)

Peter Stone (HOW IS HE THIS HIGH UP?????????)

Derek Haig (HOW IS HE THIS HIGH UP???????)

Dave Turner (HOW IS HE THIS HIGH UP????????????)

Owen Milligan

Marisol Lewis (damn she was useless and terrible but I didn’t expect her to be THIS low.)

Tristan Milligan

Baaz Nahir

Vijay Miraj

Esme Song

Hunter Hollingsworth (lmao)

It’s super interesting to see characters I’d classify as “very nice but very boring/useless/not developed enough” (Jake, Hazel, Sav, Terri, Tori, etc.) mixed in with “fascinating characters but make me want to rip my hair out” (Craig, Paige, Esme) mixed in with “you’re so interesting but do I actually like you that much?” (Maya, Zoe) mixed in with “I liked you at the end but you were Not Great to start and I haven’t totally forgiven you” (Jay, Spinner, Alex, Lola, Holly J, Imogen) mixed in with “ugh I know I’m supposed to love you but I just DON’T” (Liberty, JT).

And I really can’t believe how many Next Class characters are now in my top 10. Who even am I?

#pretty accurate i'd say #laughing at how my bottom 10 is the same as like... everybody's #and it's p funny how i clearly have a Type of both girls and boys in my top 10 #back on my degrassi bullshit

Santa's naughty list -- McMolly

And I finally got around to updating this series, as a Christmas in July surprise for @posterofamyth! Hope you all enjoy.

SECONDARY PROMPT: nakama (n: a good friend/someone that you love in a non-romantic way, who is like your family)

A Christmas Miracle (A “Stuff Of Improbable Legends” Story) - Things have been good for those in New Orleans, but they're about to get even better one Christmas Eve...

Read @ AO3 | Summer Of Surprises | Christmas In July | Help Me Survive?| Commission Me?

It wasn’t as though he had done all the work setting up for Christmas, but he was exhausted. Gifts for Livvy and James, gifts for the twins, gifts for Desiree and Zoe...all of them sat under the tree, perfectly wrapped with a doctor’s precise hand. He couldn’t believe this was another Christmas season the twins had gone through; the way the festivities had gone, he would have sworn it was their first. But he didn’t know why, but this year was special.

Maybe it was the fact that after the last huge exodus, no one else had left in...well, nearly an entire year. Almost two, come to think of it. All the people who had been there last Christmas were still in New Orleans, along with a few additions. Jim had knocked Rose up again, much to everyone’s surprise, and joining their brood of the six children they knew about was another son. Zoe was expecting, too, so he and Molly were getting at least one more grand-kid to spoil along with Desiree.

Life was good, he decided. Better than he’d expected considering how they all got smashed together in various universes.

He laid his head down in Molly’s lap and looked up at her. She had her reading glasses perched on her nose and her hair up in a sloppy bun and he had to admit, there were times he missed her as a brunette but when she’d seen her facetwin with blonde hair she’d lit up and decided to go for it. There had been a spa weekend in Baton Rouge for a ton of the ladies but they all came back looking prettier than ever.

None, however, as pretty as his wife.

“You’re gorgeous,” he said, causing her to grin and blush. All these years later and he still managed to pull a blush out of her.

All these years later and he was the luckiest man in a million different universes.

She moved her book aside and leaned down, kissing his nose. “And you’re still as handsome as ever,” she said, smiling wider when she straightened back into a sitting position. “But there are still more presents to wrap.”

He groaned. “Can’t we just tell Jim’s kids they’re on Santa’s naughty list?”

“We absolutely cannot, because I already know you’ve wrapped Kenzi’s gift. I didn’t see that lab coat with her name embroidered on it anywhere.” She tapped his nose this time with her finger. “You’re just happy she gets to do her residency in a few months.”

“Well, cooperating with the program has been beneficial to the clinic in multiple ways, but I want to work with my niece,” he said.

“I know.” She moved her hand and ran her fingers through his hair. “Are you happy?”

“More than I have been in a long time,” he said. “Are you?”

“I miss home, and I miss my friends, but I’m happy,” she said. “Do you miss your friends who aren’t here?”

“Like Spock and Chekov?” Molly nodded. “I do, but...I don’t. It’s been so long since he left. But everyone else is here, so...”

“I understand,” she said.

He was going to respond when there was a knock on the door. It was late, and they hadn’t expected anyone else to come back to the cabin until the morning when they were going to have a big breakfast courtesy of Molly, then off to Jim’s for the annual party. He got up and gave her a quizzical look as she joined him, getting up to go to the door.

Jim was standing there, the gray flecking his beard mixed with the falling snow. “You know my house is basically a way station for lost souls, but we’re out of rooms,” he said with a grin. “Since you’ve got the magic cabin, figured you could make some room for most of the arrivals.”

“Most of…? Jim, what the hell are you talking about?” McCoy asked, his frown deepening.

“Check your watches.”

Both he and Molly looked down at their wrists and saw they were off. Molly’s eyes got wide. “I don’t want to go back!”

“I don’t think you can, at least not according to our friends in charge of the tech,” Jim said. “We got an influx of people popping up all over NOLA. Old friends...and new.”

He looked behind Jim but Molly spotted the guests first. “Mary! John! Rosie!” she said, and then her eyes widened more. “GREG! SHERLOCK!” She ran out of the cabin and he watched as his wife was surrounded by her friends, giving hugs and kisses as even more people piled out of Rose’s car.

“Looks like we got one last Christmas wish before the universe decided we’d done enough good to get our happy endings,” Jim said, turning to watch Molly hold a much bigger Rosie than had left all that time ago, a smile on her face and tears in her eyes. “Spock, Chekov, my folks...they’re all at my place. Carol’s here too, though she doesn’t remember anything from before. And Jaylah...you’ll actually get to meet her instead of just having the memories. Rose’s friends showed up, too, and we’ve got four to five in a room right now.”

“What about the others?” Leonard asked, trying to take it in.

“Star Wars house is actually full. Not sure how Livvy is going to react to Finn being back, but he’s here with Rey and Poe and everyone else who was here before. Martin’s back, Armand and Allison, Danny and Clara, the Marvel crew...I get the feeling my place is going to be packed tomorrow.”

“Zane? Daisy?” Molly asked from the side, and they realized that the whole group had come up.

“They’re here with all their girls,” Jim said with a grin. “Daisy’s taking it better this time. They’re staying at Phil’s bunker right now. Zoe and Jackson and his daughter are back, so they went to Zane’s old house.”

“Good thing you bought it,” Leonard said as wailing could be heard inside the cabin. “Molly, should we do introductions?”

“Yeah,” Molly said, a wide smile on her face. “They can meet the twins tonight and James and Livvy tomorrow.” She moved to Leonard and kissed him softly before pulling back. “Rather nice we got a Christmas miracle, isn’t it?”

“Yeah, I think it is,” he said, a matching smile on his own face. “Go get the kids. We have to fix up the cabin but...”

“But it will be worth it,” she said. “Come on in. Sherlock, don’t argue with me about my use of magic. It’s a rather long explanation.”

Leonard and Jim parted to let everyone in, waiting for Rose to give Jim a pretty exuberant kiss before she shut the door on the two men. Jim grinned over at McCoy. “Never expected this, did you?”

“Not in a million years,” McCoy admitted. “But it’s worth it, isn’t it?”

“Definitely,” Jim said, reaching over to clap his shoulder. “You got any eggnog?”

“With or without rum?” McCoy asked with a smirk.

“With.”

“Got a babysitter for your hellions?”

Jim waggled his fingers. “Teleportation. We can pick up the cars tomorrow.”

“Good point.” McCoy looked over at him. “Merry Christmas, Jim.”

“Merry Christmas, Bones.”

Why You Might Want To Play Borderlands 3 More Than Once

New Post has been published on https://gamerszone.tn/why-you-might-want-to-play-borderlands-3-more-than-once/

Why You Might Want To Play Borderlands 3 More Than Once

All four playable Vault Hunters in Borderlands 3 bring their own distinct flavor to the game, and not just in terms of their unique skill trees. In comparison to the Vault Hunters in previous games, Borderlands 3’s Zane, Moze, Amara, and FL4K talk a lot, constantly speaking their minds and responding to NPCs during conversations. Your choice of Vault Hunter won’t impact the final outcome of the main story at all, but it will influence how you perceive certain events and understand the relationships of specific characters–encouraging you to play through Borderlands 3’s campaign more than once.

“We wanted to make sure that if people said, ‘I want to play through this game all over again with a different character,’ that they would then feel rewarded,” co-lead writer Sam Winkler said in an interview with GameSpot. “Not just in terms of different mechanics but also a slightly different interpretation of some of the stories.” The emphasis on Sirens in Borderlands 3’s plot means Amara has a vested interest in the story’s events, for instance, and FL4K–a nonbinary AI–explores their growing sexual attraction to Ellie by flirting with her every chance they have.

Having played as all four of the Vault Hunters now, I love how much each one changes how many of the interactions go. Previous Vault Hunters have rarely felt like carbon copies of each other–their unique abilities mean each one handles in a distinct way. But within their respective stories, each one typically reacts to every event in a similar way to their teammates. There’s no new insight playing as Brick instead of Mordecai or Maya instead of Zer0. So it’s a nice change of pace in Borderlands 3, and I’m already eager to see how each Vault Hunter uniquely responds to the streamer-like banter and violent habits of the Calypso Twins–especially Tyreen, a Siren whose curse-like Phase Leech ability and horrifying backstory (if true) write her as somewhat of a tragic figure.

To also encourage replayability, several side quests in Borderlands 3 contain choices, allowing you to impact the game in different ways. Don’t expect world-changing events but, for example, you can influence how certain characters will appear depending on what you do. In Borderlands 3’s prologue, for instance, Claptrap loses his antenna, and–for the rest of the game–he’ll just wear whatever you decide to give him as a replacement. “Maybe it’s a tin foil hat, or a human arm, or something else,” Winkler said.

Aside from the more vocal protagonists and additional agency in how certain side quests conclude, the story of Borderlands 3 is fundamentally the same character-driven tale of crass humor, murderous mayhem, and silly puns that defined Borderlands, Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and Tales from the Borderlands. Almost every major character from the previous four games returns in this newest installment, though many have changed in the seven in-game years since the events of Borderlands 2. Because there’s been so much history in the franchise, Gearbox wanted to avoid making any of the previously established characters–such as Tiny Tina, Sir Hammerlock, or Ellie–into playable Vault Hunters. It was important that players were forced to use characters who had never interacted with Pandora and its inhabitants before so the story would then have to reintroduce the franchise’s lore, helping out series newcomers.

“There’s that wonderful cadence of Borderlands where the previous rounds of Vault Hunters become characters in the world, and that allows you the opportunity to learn more about them and where they’re from,” co-lead writer Danny Homan said. “But as a result, with Borderlands 3, you need a new generation of Vault Hunters because you need to see an old world through a new perspective. It’s so useful when you have a new cast who have just made their way to Pandora and they’re asking all the [expositional] questions that the players may be asking, like, ‘What the heck is a Vault? What am I doing here? Who is Lilith? Why is this robot trying to insult me and also give me stuff?'”

“We never want Borderlands 3 to feel like you have to know everything about the franchise in order to understand why a character is important,” Winkler added. “We want it to be accessible to both new and old players.” Not every bit of information in regards to past events could be fit into Borderlands 3’s early chapters though. As a result, Borderlands 2–which hasn’t seen a story expansion since 2013’s Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep–got new DLC earlier this summer, just ahead of Borderlands 3’s release.

“Our biggest goal with [Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary DLC] was to canonize some stuff from [Tales from the Borderlands],” Winkler said. “A lot more people played Borderlands 2 than Tales, and so we didn’t want people to ask, ‘Where’s Helios?’ when they picked up Borderlands 3.”

Tales from the Borderlands is an outlier in the franchise, the only game in the series that doesn’t star Vault Hunters as the main characters and also isn’t a first-person shooter. However, it took Borderlands’ ludicrous humor to new heights, and it’s this level of ridiculousness that Borderlands 3 strives for.

“A lot of people would say ‘Don’t do an extended five-minute gunfight without any guns,'” Winkler said. “And yet Tales did it and I still see that [finger gun fight] all the time on the internet. That’s the energy we want to bring to Borderlands 3. Have people say, ‘Did you play that one thing? It’s insane.'” In this, Borderlands 3 certainly seems to fit the bill. On Eden-6 (one of the new planets you’ll visit in the game), you meet an Ice-T-voiced AI that’s been trapped in a teddy bear by its angry ex-girlfriend. The jokes that follow in that particular chapter go to places that are as shocking and unsettling as they are morbidly amusing. Borderlands 3’s story is definitely closer to the creative weirdness and pretty-much-anything-goes tone of Tales, as opposed to the unhinged attitude of the previous mainline games.

If nothing else, the story told in Borderlands 3 seems to be somewhat of an apotheosis for the franchise up to this point–rewarding fans with the answers to many of the series’ most long-standing questions. You shouldn’t expect to have everything laid bare though, as Borderlands 3 expands upon the franchise’s lore with brand-new concepts as well. “There are definitely events from previous Borderlands games that kind of reach an interesting culmination in certain ways,” Homan said. “The focus on Lilith from Borderlands 1 to Borderlands 3–there are some interesting stories that we’re telling there. People love the Borderlands universe and there are always more stories out there, and so when we’re trying to wrap up a story, we’re always trying to see new stories.” Winkler added, “Whatever Borderlands ends up looking like after Borderlands 3, I think that people will be able to look back and see one, two, and three as maybe a trilogy. But not necessarily with walls on either side of it.”

Borderlands 3 is scheduled to release for Xbox One, PS4, and PC on September 13. On PC, Borderlands 3 has a limited-time exclusivity deal with the Epic Games Store that lasts until 2020. Borderlands 3 will also be a day one title on Google Stadia, a cloud-based game streaming service scheduled to launch in November 2019.

My Favorite Album #212 - #BeatlesMonth Wall Street Journal's Allan Kozinn on how 'I Want To Hold Your Hand' broke the Beatles in America and the anatomy of an iconic hit

Beatles scholar, author, Wall Street Journal music critic and co-host of Beatles podcast 'Things We Said Today' Allan Kozinn joins me to tell the behind-the-scenes story of 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' - why hadn't the Beatles cracked America prior to this song? How did a teenage girl and a radio DJ force the Beatles record label to rush release the song? How did the JFK assassination set the stage for Americans embrace of aspirational British pop?

Plus we break down the song piece by piece to show how the Fab Four constructed a perfect single which was just as groundbreaking and sophisticated as their later work - from the lyrics to the harmonies, the guitar parts and their first use of four-track overdubbing, the sexual undertones in the music and how it marked the apex and the climax of their 'Wooo' period.

If you enjoyed this episode, pick up a copy of Allan's book Got That Something! How the Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand” Changed Everything.

The Good, The Bad, and The Lonely

OOC: A collab piece with Silvio Leon!

“Hey! Nice day for a walk in the park.” Silvio beamed at Adrienne as she approached. He’d sent her a message to meet at Pierce’s Park. Dressed in blue jeans, brown leather sandals and a sleeveless red shirt, he stood from his seat on a bench and waved her over. It was good to see her - not just for the purpose of work, but also for the pleasure of her company. Setting down roots in a new town and reworking a social network from the ground up was difficult, but it also presented new opportunities; new stories. “Nice kicks! Putting that winner’s purse to good use, huh?” he said with a grin. After waving, she looked at her New Balances and shrugged with her reply, “Oh, these? I got these with my tag match winnings. My old ones were coming apart at the seams.” Adrienne appreciated that it wasn’t raining today. It was just very, very hot. So she opted for a nondescript white tank top and jean shorts. “Nate did buy me all new ring attire for the big show, though.” She said with a wry smile. Silvio laughed, closing the distance between them and raising a brow. “That was a helluva match. Never doubted you for a minute, though. Congrats!” Seeing Adrienne’s continued success was exciting. He reflected on the woman he’d met with at the cafe just a few weeks ago and how much of a difference there already was between her and this freshly triumphant Adrienne Levi. Winning wasn’t everything, but the new vibrancy he saw in her promos, her ring-work, and just the way she held herself made him glad. “Victory suits you. Looking forward to continuing that win streak at WAR?” Taking in all of the unorthodox architecture surrounding them, Adrienne considered that. Knox had told her to essentially revel in these moments. She finally answered after a bit of silence during their stroll, “Sure. Winning’s fun. I try not to make too big a deal about it, Silvio. Knew someone who did. Know lots of people who do.” Adrienne stuck her hands in her pockets, head hung low as she trailed off. He raised a brow, cocking his head to one side. “Hey...sorry, I didn’t mean to hit a nerve or anything. Something on your mind? You don’t gotta tell me if you don’t feel like it, but I’m always happy to lend an ear.” Stopping, she looked around. As of late, Adrienne had been hearing things from folks that couldn’t possibly know. “No need to apologize. As for that, I’m not sure.” She didn’t want to betray Matt’s trust. Their conversations were private but something he said resonated with her in the wrong way. Her voice lowered a little, “I appreciate what you’ve done. Like more than you could ever know. But I’m not sure if I can be what is expected of me. I’ve done bad things, Silvio.” He blinked in surprise before gesturing for her to have a seat with him on a nearby bench. “Everyone has done bad things, Adrienne. A bad action doesn’t necessarily make you a bad person.” Pausing, he glanced around before nodding to a man having a stroll with his wife, their children laughing and racing before them. “Pretty sure that guy’s new in town; or at least to this park. See how he keeps patting his back pocket? That’s where his wallet is. When people are out and about, especially in places that might be unfamiliar to them, they tend to touch things they value to make sure they’re still there; still safe.” Leaning back, he continued in a conversational tone. “Now, if someone were to take that wallet, he’d probably notice pretty quickly, and he might be able to spot the thief before they had a chance to get away. That’s why you leave a bunk biscuit in its place. A bunk biscuit is an object that is about the same size and weight as the one that’s being stolen. It’s tricky to do, but it’s worth it because it’ll take longer for him to realize anything’s gone amiss. By that time, the person stealing the wallet will be long gone.” Looking at Adrienne, he gives her a little smile. “How do you think I know that?” Looking at the man with the family and then back to Silvio, Adrienne returned the smile sheepishly. Her answer was innocent in nature, “Books?” But what he said started to set in. “Oh. OH. Well, I won’t tell anyone.” His grin widened. “It’s okay. Look, sometimes people find themselves in extraordinary circumstances and they do things they wouldn’t have expected to do.” Silvio shrugged. “I wasn’t a bad kid, I was just poor and hungry and desperate. Life can take us places we weren’t prepared for, and we do the best given the circumstances.” Looking at her, his expression softened. “I’m sure whatever you’ve done, you did because your options were limited or you were in a desperate situation. I wouldn’t judge you for that.” She appreciated Leon sharing like this. Adrienne felt a compulsion to let everything out but nobody deserved that. Trying her best to commiserate, she mumbled, “Thanks. I did things for Danny. Things I’m not proud of.” Silvio felt his heart give a lurch at that. He’d never met Danny Levi, but the tone she used to talk about him, her body language when he came up, raised some red flags. His body posture relaxed, and his own voice became lower and softer. “Yeah?” he murmured. “Is it something that’s hurting you now? I mean, do you need help or some time for yourself? The match is just a match - if you need to take care of yourself, that’s way more important.” She smiled at Silvio’s kindness. Her eyes were mired in the sadness of the acts but she had promised herself that they would not define her. “I’ve been reminded of a lot lately. But, gosh, Silvio, I’m so tired of being alone. I hate Clearwater. Feels like my tomb. And I guess it’s obvious: Danny’s not really in the picture anymore. I don’t think he’s coming back. I wish he would.” Subconsciously twisting the gold wedding band on her finger, she sniffled a little before resuming. “Cuz I did a lot for him. Did things I can never take back.” Alone. The word lanced through his heart like a shard of ice. But it was nothing compared to the way his stomach churned at Adrienne’s admission of things she’d done in her husband’s name. “Do you,” he said softly, “want a hug? Or do you want to hold my hand? I understand if you don’t, but it’s okay if it would make you feel better. I know...how you feel. I don’t...I left everything behind when I came here. It’s really hard sometimes because so much of my support network is so far away. I’ve been incredibly fortunate with everyone I’ve met at Carnage since I got here - you included. But if it’s that bad, Adrienne, do you wanna work on getting you out of Clearwater? If it’s an emergency, I’ve got an open couch at my place - no questions asked.” If it were only that easy to leave that place behind. Her mother would have a thousand reasons as to why leaving her hometown would be foolish. But there was one reason to leave that overrode them all. “I’d like that. I really would,” and then she knew the following admission from a grown woman would make her seem sort of pathetic but she swallowed her pride and continued, “I gotta talk to my mom about this. She’s put up with so much already. With Danny and all, she didn’t want me even coming back to do this. She has her doubts even with how amazing all of you have been. I’ll convince her one day but for now, I’ll have to settle for visits.” Looking forward to the myriad of people enjoying their day, she discreetly offered her hand. Taking her hand in his, Silvio felt a pang wash over him. He drew in a breath, brow knit as he considered his words. “Do what you have to do. But - and if I’m out of line here, you can tell me - you gotta start living your life for yourself sooner or later. If you need out of Clearwater, you should start looking at other possibilities. I guess ultimately you have to ask yourself if the pain of the situation you’re in now is sustainable or not. Is enduring a known pain easier to deal with than an unknown potential for something better?” “You make a lot of sense, Silvio. In fact, all of you have lately,” she paused, politely taking her hand back to brush a stray lock of hair out of her face. However, something had been bothering her. She would have a lot to mull over considering her situation but the newest addition to her nightmares as of late had been bothering her as of late. She summoned a little courage and posed her statement, “Only thing that doesn’t make sense is Zane King and you. You teamed with him. Walked by his side like it was nothing. Matt took issue with that but I’m not sure I feel the same way he does. That guy, he scares me. But, not only that, he nearly crushed my windpipe. Yet, here you are, unscathed.” Silvio’s expression faltered somewhat and his gaze dropped to the ground. Taking a deep breath, as if steeling himself, he looked up at her. “He isn’t...Zane isn’t the same guy outside of the ring. I was able to talk with him; reason with him a bit. We worked out a deal, and that’s why that match even happened. If I hadn’t been able to get through to him, I’m pretty sure it would have just been a free-for-all. It was still pretty chaotic, even then.” He pressed his lips together, thoughtful. “...I wouldn’t...approach him when he’s near the ring or when a fight is about to happen,” he suggested. “There’s no getting through to him then. But when it’s quiet? When things are still...calm...he isn’t dangerous. I think…” Shaking his head, he gave her a sardonic smile. “I don’t know if you’ll believe me, but I think he’s a little scared, and even more lonely.” Adrienne remembered back to the match. Was really easy to remember the worst parts. Silvio however reminded her of one strange moment towards the end. After an errant boot had busted his lip open, he became uncontrollable. It stopped being a competitive wrestling match and instead became a struggle to survive the night. After managing to escape his clutches, he was dragged up the ramp by his security detail and King gave her the strangest expression. All she could see were his eyes and yet they told her for the briefest moment that what Silvio had just explained was true. “I believe you,” she replied emphatically.
