Daddy’s Girl
“Daddy!” She claps proudly that her father noticed her stance out of the thousands of people around. A huge smile spreads across her face as she watched her father dance around stage with a smile as big as hers. Y/n bounced her daughter in arms to the rhythm of Late Night Talking.
She giggled a high pitched ‘Daddy!’ when her eyes glow bright with the lights that reflected off her father’s moves.
She had her pretty pink large ear protection headphones of for her sensitive ears.
Her little heart beams when her father sends her a little wave every now and then. Her eyes are big as she stares at the big screens and back down at her father who looked so small from the view she had— but he was still there.
“Look at him, mama!” She clapped, following the beat of the fellow song.
“I see. I see, baby,” She pressed a soft kiss on her cheek. Y/n adores the way her daughter adores her father. She watches as Lily’s smile gets larger and is never knocked off her face.
When the show was over and Y/n walked the two backstage. Her legs kicked as they stood waiting for him to exit the black curtain and when he did her eyes grew two sizes.
“Daddy!” Struggling to release from her mothers protective hold, Y/n let her down as she realized her mission. Baby ran into her fathers arms, each step filled with anticipation to be in his arms. Little squeals with each step she took. Harry met his daughter half way, cupping her armpits and swinging her up onto his hip.
Harry pressing his lips against his daughters cheek, attacking it with kisses. “You did so good, Daddy!” She scrunched her nose up as he left the last kiss on her temple. “Did I now?”
Lily put her arm around his neck as he walked her closer to her mother. Y/n stood with a smile watching her daughter
“Y’looked so handsome!” She cooed to him making both of her parents laugh. “Why thank you, darling,” Harry chuckled sweetly, kissing his daughters cheek one last time and pecking his wife’s next.

thinking about the unsolves bigfoot episode which is pretty much the only one where Jasmine's enjoying herself - hiking through the woods looking at nature and having a grand time. and Bosco's all grumpy because they're not outdoorsy and there's bugs everywhere and Jasmine's too happy, they're like "aren't you scared? what if bigfoot comes along and murders me?" and she's "nah, we'd be buds 😘" Bosco tripping over 20 times and Jasmine patching them up with 20 ghost bandaids.
Oh I love that!
Jasmine's having the absolute best time in her little matching sports bra and leggings outfit with her sporty little windbreaker, probably all giddy like "look how pretty these flowers are!" and "oh my god Bosco, look! It's a baby otter!"
Like it's very that incorrect quote "mother nature's beautiful" "mother nature's a WHORE" jgksdjgk
But also Jasmine being a fan of the crytid investigations makes so much sense to me like she would totally insist that Bigfoot is no big deal, the mothman is really cute (I mean, it's just a big butterfly, Bosco), and that Nessie has to be their next investigation.

With the sudden collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, many of the former empire's resources were sold off to the highest bidder, and their $14 billion space shuttle program was no exception.
Seeking to recoup some of that eyewatering spend, in 1998, the "Buran" (Russia's answer to the American Space Shuttle) was offered up for sale on eBay for $10 million.
No serious offers were received - with most people assuming the listing to be a joke, until the New York Post confirmed the sale, with Russian authorities stating they "actually have two" if anyone is interested.
(Pictured: A later auction of a smaller scale Buran in 2005)
Sensing an opportunity, a group of Aussie entrepreneurs including Australia's first astronaut and the lawyer for Prime Minister Paul Keating offer to lease the shuttle from Russia, to put it on display in Australia during the Sydney Olympics.
After gaining permission from the Kremlin for the lease, in 1999 the Russian military briefly stops bombing Chechnya in order to dismantle the Buran, and it is placed on a barge to be shipped to Sydney on the (soon to be infamous for other reasons) Tampa shipping vessel at a cost of $5 million.
Once in Sydney, after a disastrous few months on display where crowds failed to flock to the shuttle exhibition featuring such compelling educational offerings as "activities is to assist in the development of issues of nutrition and hygiene at home" (an actual quote from their website) - the leasing company declared bankruptcy and washed their hands of the space shuttle completely.

One of four people listed on the lease, described as a business partner of the Prime Minister, also claims he never knew he was a director of the company, which went on to cause a lot more problems.
This whole debacle presented a slight issue for the cash strapped Russian authorities, who had now only been paid $100,000 for the 9 year lease of the shuttle instead of the $600,000 they were owed. Eventually the decision was made to abandon the once $1 billion Soviet pride and joy in a Sydney carpark, where it resided for a year under a small tarpaulin.
Failed attempts to be rid of the shuttle included a 12 day auction hosted by an LA radio station, where listeners were offered the chance to buy the shuttle for $6 million, however all bids turned out to be pranks and the shuttle remained.
Multiple attempts were also made to sell the shuttle to Tom Cruise, with the exacerbated movie star's representatives repeatedly telling the insistent traders that he was not interested in owning a Russian spaceship.
Eventually a Singaporean group dismantled the shuttle and shipped it overseas, however Russian authorities soon reported they once again had been failed to be paid for the lease. Singaporean representatives responded that they definitely had paid for the shuttle, and that they simply couldn't remember when or how much was paid.
Representing the Russian government, Lawyer Suhaila Turani told the Wall Street Journal “I feel sorry for the Russians. They’re good in space, but they’re very naive in business.”
For a time the shuttle was abandoned in the storage yard of event company Pico, with the company owner telling the Wall Street Journal "I just want this thing out of my life" after three years of being stuck with it.
A few years later the shuttle was found by German journalists dismantled in a junkyard, and it was then bought and shipped to Germany to be put on display a museum, so all's well that ends well (except they dropped it from a crane while trying to set it up, but it polished up okay).
