The LOVE in the audience was so deep and beautiful. People from all walks of life striking up conversations with fellow fans. Beautiful men everywhere. Guys checking me out as I checked them out. Mothers taking their daughters to see this strange woman they’d heard about, but never really knew what all the fuss was about. I’ve never been so comfortable in a huge crowd before. Inspired.💙

The Summer I Turned Pretty 2x06 - "Love Fest"

In this episode, I really didn't know what happened to the writers, because from episode 5, Belly just wanted to stay focus on Jeremiah and being kissed by him, to the next day remembering Conrad all over again. This is so fucked up, even more so that it has only been six weeks that Susannah has passed away and now, Belly is playing a very very messy game with the two grieving brothers. Teasing to an extreme Jeremiah on one side then remembering the past with Conrad on the other. Do the writers know we are not in a Game of Throne's episode, I really don't see an incestuous relationship taking place between the three of them here.

Anyway, one thing I can tell is that the chemistry between Jeremiah and Belly is undeniable, the sexual tension is so so strong. It's just unrealistic that she hasn't kissed him already. And if I'm not mistaken Belly had more cuddling and scenes with Jeremiah than Conrad.

What I didn't like in this episode was those unrealistic scenes that didn't make sense at all: - This inheritance nonsense, because now we know that the house went to Susannah and Julia, so the Susannah's part should have been to Conrad and Jeremiah. WTF - Belly asking kindly for alcohol, it's not Europe you guys. - The "retro" cloths for the party? Come on, no one used to wear that in the 90's, nor really listen to those songs. - The horrible blue light inside the house which just happened to be there. - The middle name to prove that someone will like you. - Jeremiah and Belly not kissing on the sofa. - The random fight around Conrad asking Jeremiah's blessing for Belly, taking way more proportion than selling the House and Susannah's death. - This obsession over Taylor Swift's songs.

But, let me tell you this episode was a big win for Taylor and Steven relationship. They were the one concerned by the title of the episode. Good for them. Now, we know why Sheila didn't come back (sorry is in Ibiza) this season. I feel sad for that, but in the same time a bit joyful, because otherwise we would have never get those two together.

Finally learning approximatively when Susannah has passed away : "six weeks ago" from what day? The timeline reminds still a mystery to me.

I really didn't understand why they have created this Aunt Julia nonsense. She is useless and not interesting. I think they had to create content. But the same story could have worked with Conrad and Jeremiah's father trying to sell the house.

I don't understand this sudden excellent friendship between Steven and Conrad, this didn't make sense at all, because next season Steven was always hanging out with Jeremiah.

What I liked was the pool scene with Belly and Jeremiah as a call back to season 1 with this time a Taylor Swift's song entirely for them.

I still don't know if I really care about Skye and Cam at all. It's ok, but not necessary to the storyline.

I really didn't like Belly apologizing to Conrad about the words exchanged during the funeral. She wasn't the one to be blame. Conrad acted as an asshole like he always does.

Interesting Belly, so Jeremiah's kisses are the hottest.

Conrad not being serious for one minute while Jeremiah was showing him their old pictures in the garage. Even mocking Jeremiah's greek portrait painted by their deceased mother. Way to go Conrad.

Taylor's advice to Belly was good and logical.

It was nice to see Nicole again and the gang back, even for a short moment, but their only interaction was with Belly, why???

I'm very astonished that Jeremiah and Conrad's fight have taken place only now and not days or months before. I thought the situation would have exploded way earlier.

I didn't really like the beach scene between Belly and Conrad. Belly facial expression wasn't good. Conrad being is true self, almost tossing Belly on the sand. Honestly when he used "We did". It was so harsh. Like she didn't even matter to him. He has moved on from her a long time ago.

Overall, a strange episode that I haven't seen coming at all.

I will post the quotes and the new prediction that I found tomorrow, going directly to bed (having slept only 2h30), dreaming about Jeremiah and Belly kissing and not being interrupted this time.

Good night.

Hi! I’m going to read your fantastic story, you great unfinished symphony (you sent for me), again for the… I’m actually not sure how many times I’ve read it, but it’s been many. It’s one of my comfort stories. I just adore your universe. Anyway, I wanted to check on you, since I noticed you haven’t updated in a while. I hope you’re doing well! Thank you!

Thank you so, so much for this message, and to others for similar gentle check-ins I've received in the past few months. I'm so deepky glad symphony is a fic you keep returning to and that it brings you comfort. Writing it was a very similar experience; it's actually one of my only pieces of writing that I can go back and read. (Usually I never look at my own work again once it's posted.)

I never meant to be gone for so long! Life got absolutely wild, and then the longer I didn't write or post, and the more I saw a lot of folks start to kind of move on from Marvel, the more I wondered whether I should bother, you know? But the fact is that I absolutely love these characters. I love the verses I've crafted, I love the journeys they're on, and I absolutely adore getting to share them with wonderful folks like you.

I've written and 'banked' a few chapters of each of my unfinished works , so I can finally start updating again beginning tomorrow. If anyone has a vote for which story they want an update on first, feel free to leave a comment and let me know!

After such a long break I honestly can't seem to stop writing. So if there's anything you'd like to see (outstanding prompts from Ask Strange, timestamps for any of my verses, whatever!) you can let me know that, too!

I love you all, Marvel fandom. Thanks for your patience and kindness.

A Night to Unwind

6k words

The Five Kages go out for a fun evening for food, drinks, and a movie in Konohagakure. It's a rare chance to unwind amongst peers and romance blossoms in the most unexpected of places.

Besides my rare pair indulgence of Chojuro/Gaara there's also some Darui/Kurotsuchi and Kankuro/Omoi.

Hope you enjoy! Snippet below.

“I have kind of always thought about trying something casual,” Omoi said while eating. “You know, like friends with benefits or something,” he said more quietly, hoping only Kankuro could hear.

“Is that so?” Kankuro asked, suddenly very interested. “Ever find anyone to indulge?”

“You know, I haven’t. It’s kind of a hard thing to bring up, I guess.”

“Well, you’re bringing it up now. I, um. Well I think it’s a good idea.” Kankuro was grateful for the paint on his face. His face felt hot. Was he really trying to proposition sex in front of the Five Kages? Kankuro leaned in a little closer to Omoi, leaning to whisper in his ear, or at least, speak quietly over the noisy din of the restaurant. “I’d indulge you,” he said, and pulled away and grinned at him suggestively.

Omoi was stunned, face full of color. “I-I…um…I need another drink I think.”

It's Day ten of the Write Here, Write Now LoveFest, and we've got ME! Here's my dual-POV, new-adult, contemporary-romance, ALL IT TAKES, which is currently on sale for 99p/c.

Megan Green has her whole life figured out. She’s six months away from graduating uni, then she plans on backpacking around Europe for a year, before following her dream of becoming an interior designer.

What she doesn’t account for is meeting local MMA fighter Kian Murphy.

With his athletic body and Irish charm, Kian has no trouble scoring with the ladies, and one night is all he’s after.

But All It Takes is one night to change the rest of their lives.

After a chance meeting and passionate encounter, Megan finds herself pregnant with Kian’s child.

But with a womanizing reputation, and a temper that often leads him into trouble, Kian is hardly boyfriend material, let alone father material.

Now Megan and Kian must work out if they have All It Takes to turn their one-night-stand into a relationship that will connect them for a life-time.

All It Takes is a dual-POV, new-adult, contemporary-romance

​about responsibility, love and discovering who you are in life.
