Oops it’s been a damn month because my ability to watch anything dropped off the face of the planet but I’m trying to play catch-up on the anime now lol.
Don’t have the energy to go back over Ep 4 and do a proper look at it like I was doing, so I’ll just...  Maybe re-address that later, but for now just looking at Ep 5
I don’t have the energy to do the “watch then post” thing so I’ll be putting this together as I go, and probably will do that from now on.
First up Asshole Jesus starting things out being a little shit, just look at that smile, his face is so punchable.  (affectionate)
Tumblr media
Yeah I see you on your phone, Asshole Jesus, texting Neku a fake mission and then acting like you weren’t doing anything lmao
Tumblr media
Trying to advertise for Mr. H’s menu lol
Tumblr media
I see you neatly dodging the answer to that question, Josh.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Does a really good job of conveying his whole “the Game is amusement for me” attitidue, though
Tumblr media
The game pretty strongly implied it as well, but I feel like the anime goes even further to all but say that Joshua “I See Dead People” Kiryu killed himself to join the Reapers’ Game.
Tumblr media
No, Neku, you haven’t, he’s Asshole Jesus for a reason
Tumblr media
Mmm, more of that wording that makes it pretty blatant that Josh offed himself.
Tumblr media
Nice callback to the game itself with the style of the error message!  It’s how, like, memes look when you get them and other various selectable options and stuff appear in-game.
Tumblr media
Neat way they handle it being a smartphone now, using apps instead of a camera hardware upgrade.  Also that triple star app, that reminds me of the Fusion Pin for Shiki’s lvl 1 and 2 fusions in the game
Tumblr media
Would it kill ya to be a less of a mysterious dick, Josh?  Yeah actually it probably would.
Tumblr media
Lol sounds like Mr. H is speaking from experience.  He has known Asshole Jesus for a while so that makes sense.  
Tumblr media
Heh.  They’re having an entirely different conversation than the one Neku is aware of.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mmm, can’t have him going down that way until you’re good and ready, eh, Josh?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Heh.  Looks like Neku’s not entirely sure he trusts that “it’s because the signal from Scramble’s weirder” thing
Tumblr media
Oh, that’s not ominous at all (/sarcasm)
Tumblr media
Mmm, feels like this part was handled a little more...  Flatly than the game did, like it’s less of a big deal as a possible theory in the anime?
Tumblr media
I see that Gatito brand logo in the BG with this convo, nice and subtle.
Tumblr media
Oh!  They include the Mic Incident?
Tumblr media
Something I noticed is interesting--you can sort of tell in the previous screenshot the lighting seems...  Not bright and sunny.
You can also see it here
Tumblr media
I just think it’s interesting that it’s cloud and then we get to this shot, very dark in general, you can see the extremely dark clouds in the background, the lighting in general much more washed out the way you get on a very cloudy day...  And Players, fighting for their lives against the black-and-silver Taboo Noise.
I just think that’s a really neat visual thing.
Tumblr media
askdjfjakdsf  THE SPEECH BUBBLE WITH THE IMAGE OF THE MIC!!  I’M!!  oh I love that so much lol
Tumblr media
sad.fjasdlkf THEY KEPT THE LINE.  bless
Tumblr media
Changed up the scene with Nao and Sota, misses the sweet “totally be an entry fee for each other/play the game as many times as needed” part but I did love the way Sota tried to stop Neku from going to the Taboo Noise infested area to keep him from getting killed.  Flow of the scene works well for the shift to anime, though, so makes sense they’d change things up a bit.  Speaking of...  They cut the Tin Pin stuff, didn’t they?  Shame but it makes sense because...  I can’t see that flowing well in the anime lol.  Maybe if they made a spin-off anime only about Tin Pin Slammer...  XD
Tumblr media
sadjkflaksdjfas  LOOK AT HER GUN TIP LMAO THEY ACTUALLY SHOWED A REASON WHY HER ENERGY BULLETS ARE WEIRDLY SHAPED LMAO
okay that’s fantastic I love that so much
Tumblr media
Fusion attack, nice
Tumblr media
Josh just.  LOVES being a little shit, doesn’t he
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh, this ENTIRE SCENE is so much more dramatic, it’s amazing to see it brought to life in animation.
Tumblr media
No seriously this is a lot more what I’d expect from somebody who just discovered the dude they work with very probably murdered the fuck out of them
The way Neku stumbles back with that horrified gasp (seriously the sound he makes--props to the VA that conveyed the emotion of the scene so damn well), that terrified expression on his face, his entire body language of “person receiving a horrific shock” is so well executed here.
Plus, can’t really catch it with screenshots but the way the screen is shifting and sort of “shaky cam” really helps convey it 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That facial expression is so perfect, you can see him breaking.
Look, you can pinpoint the exact frame where he shatters!
Tumblr media
Aaaaand then we got Asshole Jesus looking like a smug fuck, as usual lol.  Solid spot to end an ep, though.

RWBY- Shopping Daze
I didn’t expect to upload anything else this week, but this is an idea I had for a while and just decided to go with it. So, I hope you enjoy this.
Think of this as like a RWBY chibi sketch. It’s jokey and funny.
Oscar Pine sighed as he looked at the clothing store before him.
“Really, shopping?” Oscar asked aloud.
“Of course.” Ozpin answered within his mind. “You truly are a real huntsman now so of course you’re going to need some new threads to go with it.”
“Threads?”
“Oh, is that not what the kids are saying these days? What about duds?”
“Um… no.”
“Well no matter. The point is clothes make the man and with our triumph back at Haven Academy, you’re definitely deserving of some new clothes.”
“If you say so…”
Quickly, they went into the clothing store and picked out a few outfits that both of them insisted on.
Soon, they were in the fitting room and began trying on outfits.
The first one was one that Ozpin insisted on. It was a dark suit with a green scarf that sat nicely around his neck along with tiny glasses that rested on his nose.
“There. Don’t you look dashing, Oscar?” A triumphant Ozpin asked.
Oscar sighed. “This is just what you wore in your last life…”
“What…? Really?” Ozpin so obviously lied.
“Yes!”
“No, it isn’t.”
“I’ve seen pictures of you!”
“Really?”
“Yes!”
“Well… how did this happen?”
“You know for someone who lies so much, you’re bad at it.”
“Oh fine. Let’s tryone of the others.”
Now Oscar was dressed in even worse farm clothes complete with overalls, a dirtied shirt and was even barefoot.
Oscar put his hands on his hips with a smile.
“Now this is what I’m talking about!”
“You must be joking.”
“What? This is great.”
“No, it really isn’t.”
“Sure it is! Cousin Joseph wore this stuff all the time and he was the coolest guy back on the farm!”
“Yes, sure. But out here you look like rubbish. Please change.”
“Aw… come on.”
“You’re barefoot. We could trip over Jaune’s self-esteem and die like this.”
Oscar sighed, but complied.
They tried on the next outfit and Oscar had to lift up the hole in the helmet so he could see.
“No.”
“Why not, Oscar?”
“There is nothing fashionable about this.”
“but I wore it all the time back in the middle ages.”
“Yeah? Well no one does now.”
“So?”
“So where does someone find a green suit of armor in the middle of a Hot Topic?!”
“Well…”
“Next!”
This time, Oscar had a nearly identical version of Ruby’s old outfit only opting to go with long black pants instead of a skirt.
“Oh, this is pathetic.” Ozpin deadpanned.
“What’s wrong with this?”
“It screams desperation.”
“No, it doesn’t…”
“Really?”
“Sure. Ruby is just a friend who I happen to admire and wanted to show that.”
“This is not the way and please, my presence makes your silly crush rather awkward and undesirable.”
“You’ve been through your teens hundreds of times. Isn’t that all weird high school romances?”
“Touché.”
“Alright, what do you suppose we do then?”
“How about we pick something out we agree on and hope for the best.”
“Sounds like a plan.”
So the two did just that, eventually deciding on an outfit that they could both at least tolerate.
When they got to the checkout counter, the shopkeeper asked them an important question. “Do you always talk to yourself when you’re changing?”
“Perfect.” Ozpin practically grinned. “Tell this old hag to watch his mouth and know who he is-”
“Yeah…” Oscar sighed, cutting him off. “Sometimes I can be pretty annoying when no one asked me to speak!”
“Rude!”
“Right…” The shopkeeper nodded. “anyway, that’ll be eighty Lien.”
“Right…”
“I don’t have any money…” He whispered.
“hm… true.” Ozpin noted. “Not to worry, I have this.”
“Oscar, I told you that my cane holds a special place in my heart, correct?”
“Yeah, you told Ruby that it’s not a relic.”
“It’s even better than a relic. Please, turn the handle to the right three times, left four and right twice.”
“Okay…”
Oscar did so and when he did, the glass on top of the cane popped open to which a radiant golden light streamed out, forcing everyone to cover their eyes.
When the light finally cleared and they could look again, Oscar’s eyes widened in shock, surprise and delight at what he saw.
Hovering just a little bit above the exposed glass was a solid gold credit card as an angelic harmony sang from nowhere in particular thanks to the incredible musical stylings of Jeff Williams.
“Wow…” Oscar gaped.
“Mr. Pine, as my new host, I bestow upon you the single most powerful item in the world of Remnant: My credit card. It is armed with poorly misplaced trust, government funds, the Beacon Academy tuition fees and however much Ironwood thinks he donates towards the fight against Salem but is actually just my hot cocoa account. I drink a lot of expensive, exotic hot chocolate.”
“It’s beautiful… C-can I touch it?”
“It is yours now.”
Smiling, Oscar took the card and happily swiped.
~Shopping Daze~
Back at Beacon, Salem’s crew was absolutely bored. Ever since the Battle of Haven Academy and the loss of the relic, they hadn’t really had anything to do.
For this reason, that’s how Emerald was still crying in her chair, Arthur was fiddling around with his custom scroll, Salem was glaring into her crystal ball and the rest of the guys were playing Go Fish.
“So…” Mercury asked. “Got any twos, Tyrian?”
Tyrian, who was hiding his face behind his cards slowly looked up from them revealing a great big Cheshire grin on his face. He let out a little chuckle. “Hehehe… do I have any twos? Ohohoho… Do I have any twos he asks me. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA…”
And with that, the chuckles slowly rose to cackles and then great guffaws.
“Shut up!” Mercury shouted. “We’ve been doing this for two hours and every single time you make any sort of play you just keep doing that! You know what, I quit! You and Hazel have fun playing!”
At that, Mercury got up and stormed off to the head of the table where Salem was still glaring angrily at the silver ball.
“Yo, what’s up, Sal?”
“First, do not call me that, insect.”
Mercury sheepishly held his hands up in defense.
“Second of all, I am trying to find Ozpin’s crew. The Grimm between Haven and Atlas haven’t spotted them yet and I am growing frustrated.”
“Maybe they’re on a train.”
“Don’t be stupid, the story’s much more fun if they go on foot.”
“Whatever.” Mercury rolled his eyes.
He then poked the crystal ball, to which Salem hissed. “Don’t touch that!”
“You got any movies on this thing? I’m think of watching The Room…”  
Salem was about to snap at him only for the crystal ball to let out a loud alarm in the room.
Salem, pushed Mercury away and nearly, broke the ball getting herself up close and personal with it. “Ozpin just used his credit card! Finally! Hazel, go and get the Grimm Ozpin is-”
She looked only to see a cartoonish puff of smoke and cards scattered around the ground where he used to be.
“Yeah, he left the moment you said Oz.” Mercury quipped.
~Shopping Daze~
Oscar came out of the store carrying shopping bags (one of which had a few boxes of expensive chocolate, hot chocolate mix and milk curtesy of General James Ironwood), eating a triple scoop and whistling a happy tune. This was actually a pretty great day now that he had Ozpin’s dirty secret money. Nothing could go wrong.
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
He looked up from his cone only to drop it at what he saw. A mess of Grimm of ridiculous shapes and sizes stood in a circle outside of the shopping mall and sitting atop a dragon Grimm was none other than, Hazel freshly dusted and ready to be a hypocritical child murderer.
“What the fu-“
“Oh yeah… I forgot Salem had tabs on that card.”
“Now you tell me?” Oscar asked as he threw aside the shopping bags and pulled out his cane.
“No worries, you’re a true huntsman now. We’ll take them on, together!”
And with that, Oscar ran into the fray.

to re reclothed.
this is an act of grace. of Light.
Paul illuminates this through writing in Today’s reading of the Scriptures from the New Testament with the 13th chapter of the Letter of Romans:
Every person must submit to and support the authorities over him. For there can be no authority in the universe except by God’s appointment, which means that every authority that exists has been instituted by God. So to resist authority is to resist the divine order of God, which results in severe consequences. For civil authorities don’t intimidate those who are doing good, but those who are doing evil. So do what is right and you’ll never need to fear those in authority. They will commend you for your good citizenship.
Those in authority are God’s servants for the good of society. But if you break the law, you have reason to be alarmed, for they are God’s agents of punishment to bring criminals to justice. Why do you think they carry weapons? You are compelled to obey them, not just to avoid punishment, but because you want to live with a clean conscience.
This is also the reason you pay your taxes, for governmental authorities are God’s officials who oversee these things. So it is your duty to pay all the taxes and fees that they require and to respect those who are worthy of respect, honoring them accordingly.
Don’t owe anything to anyone, except your outstanding debt to continually love one another, for the one who learns to love has fulfilled every requirement of the law. For the commandments, “Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not covet,” and every other commandment can be summed up in these words:
“Love and value others the same way you love and value yourself.”
Love makes it impossible to harm another, so love fulfills all that the law requires.
To live like this is all the more urgent, for time is running out and you know it is a strategic hour in human history. It is time for us to wake up! For our full salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
Night’s darkness is dissolving away as a new day of destiny dawns. So we must once and for all strip away what is done in the shadows of darkness, removing it like filthy clothes. And once and for all we clothe ourselves with the radiance of light as our weapon. We must live honorably, surrounded by the light of this new day, not in the darkness of drunkenness and debauchery, not in promiscuity and sensuality, not being argumentative or jealous of others.
Instead fully immerse yourselves into the Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, and don’t waste even a moment’s thought on your former identity to awaken its selfish desires.
The Letter of Romans, Chapter 13 (The Passion Translation)
Today’s paired chapter of the Testaments is the 32nd chapter of the book (scroll) of Isaiah that looks at restoring Justice:
Look, a good king, right with God,
along with princes, too, will rule with justice.
For the people they’ll be like cover from the storm, a wall against the wind.
They’ll be like streams of water in a dry place
and the cool shade of a giant boulder in the burning sun.
Then the eyes of those who see will see indeed,
and the ears of those who hear will listen.
Careless and impulsive minds will take time to really understand,
and clear speech will return to the shy stutterer.
Fools will no longer be called noble-minded,
nor will criminals be respected.
For fools utter nonsense, and their minds are preoccupied with evil;
they regularly misrepresent the Eternal in what they say and do,
Leaving true seekers frustrated and confused,
the hungry with empty stomachs and the thirsty with parched mouths.
As for the criminals—their schemes are vile and evil;
they are constantly looking for ways to hurt the innocent,
To ruin the poor with their lies, and to twist a justified complaint.
By contrast, those who are noble have noble intentions,
and they stand confidently by their honorable words and actions.
Get up, you women who lie around in your life of ease;
hear my voice, you careless daughters, and listen to what I have to say.
Soon—in a year and a few days—you will shudder and shake;
your mindless lounging will come to an end, careless daughters.
For the wine you so enjoyed will be gone, with none to replace it.
There will be no fruit, no grapes to mash and juice.
Be worried, women of ease;
be bothered and anxious, careless daughters.
Strip off your fine clothes and replace them
with sackcloth; dress for mourning.
Beat your breasts over the loss of those lush vineyards,
over the vines, heavy with fruit.
Mourn over my people’s land, verdant and lush,
now the habitat of thorns and briars—
Yes, for all the happy homes and vibrant cities.
Palaces and bustling cities will be abandoned;
hilltop posts and watchtowers will serve as caves for animals;
wild donkeys and flocks will enjoy the wide open spaces.
So it will be until God pours out the Spirit from up above,
and the land comes alive again—desert to fertile field, fertile field to forest.
Then justice and truth will settle in the desert places,
and righteousness will infuse the fertile land.
Then righteousness will yield peace, and the quiet and confidence
that attend righteousness will be present forever.
My people’s homes and hometowns will be filled with peace;
they’ll relax, safe and secure.
Before such reconciliation, there will be cold, hard hail,
raining down when the forests fall and the cities are razed to the ground.
And you, you who plant on streams’ edges
and let your oxen and donkeys range free,
You will be happy.
The Book (Scroll) of Isaiah, Chapter 32 (The Voice)
A link to my personal reading of the Scriptures for Saturday, july 10 of 2021 with a paired chapter from each Testament of the Bible along with Today’s Proverbs and Psalms
A post by John Parsons about A to Z:
On the Biblical calendar, the fifth month of the year (counting from Nisan) is called “Av” (אָב) in Jewish tradition. The month of Av is traditionally regarded as the most tragic in the Jewish calendar. On the first day of this month, Aaron (the first High Priest of Israel) died (Num. 33:38), which was considered a ominous event. On the ninth day of the month (i.e., Tishah B’Av), the LORD decreed that the original generation rescued from Egypt would die out in the desert and be deprived from entering the Promised Land because they had believed the faithless report of the Spies and questioned God's love for them (Num. 13-14). Later both of the Holy Temples were destroyed on the ninth day of Av as well...
Because both of the Temples were destroyed on the ninth of Av, this date is remembered as lowest point of the “Three Weeks of Sorrow” (שלושה שבועות של צער) that began with the fast of the 17th of Tammuz (undertaken to recall both the shattering of the tablets after Moses discovered the people worshiping the golden calf and also the breach in the walls of Jerusalem by the Babylonians before the First Temple was destroyed). During this period, weddings and parties are forbidden. It is a time for solemn reflection and mourning for Israel.
The last two portions of the Book of Numbers (Mattot - Masei) are always read during the Three Weeks of Sorrow. The sages say these readings were selected at this time to ultimately comfort us as we look forward to the “apportioning of the land” -- i.e., the ultimate fulfillment of God’s promises to us. Indeed, the month of Av -- despite the sorrow of the loss of the Temple -- is sometimes called “Menachem Av” (מנחם אב) - the “Comfort of the Father.” One day the lamentations of our present state of exile will come to an end.
Menachem Av may also mean the “comfort of Aleph-Bet” (אב). The Prophet Jeremiah, who witnessed the destruction of the Temple, later wrote the scroll of Lamentations to commemorate this tragic time. The form of Lamentations is an acrostic based on the letters of the Hebrew Aleph-Bet (like Psalm 25, 34, 37, 119, Prov. 31, etc.). The scroll has five sections (perekim). The verses of the first two chapters and the last two chapters all are written in alphabetical order (א,ב,ג). The middle chapter, however, writes its verses using a triple Aleph Bet ordering, i.e., "Aleph, Aleph, Aleph," "Bet, Bet, Bet," "Gimmel, Gimmel, Gimmel," and so on. Since Yeshua is called the “Aleph and Tav” of God (האלף והתו) in Rev. 23:13, the comfort of the Father is revealed in Him! Yeshua is “et” (את), the direct sign and wonder of God!
Since the Book of Deuteronomy is mishneh Torah - a “retelling of Torah,” it can be said that the written Torah -- from a narrative point of view -- ends with the reading of these final portions from Numbers, and by extension, with the yearning for Zion. And so it is to this day. We await the return of our Messiah Yeshua while we live in exile here on earth. And even though the Temple of the LORD is spiritually present in the Person of the resurrected Messiah, it will be made fully manifest in the days to come: first in the Millennial Kingdom (after Yeshua’s Second Coming), and later still in olam habah (the world to come) as the eternal community of those redeemed by the Lamb of God (Rev. 21:22-23). So for those of us who hold faith in Yeshua as Messiah, our mourning for the Temple is really mourning for the Presence of our Beloved Savior. [Hebrew for Christians]

Today’s message (Days of Praise) from the Institute for Creation Research
July 10, 2021
How Does God Hear?
“Hearken therefore unto the supplications of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, which they shall make toward this place: hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven; and when thou hearest, forgive.” (2 Chronicles 6:21)
No less than eight times in Solomon’s prayer of dedication for the temple does he beseech God to “hear from heaven” (see 2 Chronicles 6:21, 23, 25, 27, 30, 33, 35, 39). But the obvious question is just how can God hear our prayers, especially those uttered only in silence?
The answer is in both God’s omniscience and His omnipresence. Although God is indeed on His heavenly throne, He is also right here! “O LORD,” David prayed, “thou hast searched me, and known me....thou understandest my thought afar off” (Psalm 139:1-2). He can, and does, hear our prayers. “He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?” (Psalm 94:9).
In a manner of speaking, He hears the prayers of redeemed children today even more directly than in David’s day, for we who trust in Christ have been indwelt by the Holy Spirit. “God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them” (2 Corinthians 6:16). “The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers” (1 Peter 3:12).
God can indeed hear our prayers. But there are times when He refuses to hear! “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me” (Psalm 66:18). “Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God...that he will not hear” (Isaiah 59:1-2).
Yes, but if we ask anything according to His will (and this implies first living according to His will), “he heareth us: and... we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him” (1 John 5:14-15). HMM

It’s hard to put into words what our first week on trail has been like, but I’ll try.
Tiring. Hot. Cold. Amazing. Beautiful. Adventure. Ouch. Hungry. Thirsty. Dirty. Smelly.
There you have it!
Starting out the PCT was an emotional experience. It was surreal hiking those first few miles, and then it just sinks in “oh right, this is just hiking. And hiking is just walking. And walking is tiring. Wow it’s hot. Wait, how am I already this dirty?” We only made it about .3 miles when we came upon a little campground with some trail angels that we talked to briefly. One of them was an older man with long white silver hair and blue eyes named Legend who apparently is a triple crowner (has hiked the PCT, AT and CDT). He told us to put our hands towards the trail and then grab some air and cup it into a ball in our hands. He said we had grabbed a little piece of magic from the PCT and it is carried in all the hikers who had gone before us and that we were all connected. He told us to hold it up to our hearts to absorb, but being the brilliant nurse that I am, I held it to the right side of my chest instead of the left, so I guess that means the magic went into my rib cage instead. I’m not an expert in PCT magic 🤷🏻‍♀️ so who knows how it will affect me. Magic ribs? Time will tell. He also told us to take another piece of PCT magic and put it in our pocket to give to a friend. I will sell mine to the highest bidder. Authentic PCT magic, hard to come by, Bitcoin will be accepted as a trade.
Hiking has been very physically exhausting for me, more than I expected to be honest. We’re going about 2-2.3 miles per hour at this point, and have done 10-16 miles per day. We wake up between 6-7 AM, pack up our stuff and head out. Generally we eat breakfast at our first break of the day after 3-4 miles, and I’ve found that I need a break about every 3 miles. If we can get to a great spot for lunch, we will generally take at least an hour and sometimes more if it’s in the heat of the day. We try to stop hiking between 5-6 pm, so we can have time to set up camp, make dinner, roll out our feet and sore muscles, and write in our journals before bed. We are very tired every night, but sometimes we don’t sleep very well if it’s windy or very cold. I always take my trusty Benadryl and sleep better with it!
The hardest part for me so far has been the wear and tear on my feet. The biggest mistake I made at the start was not putting inserts in my shoes. My feet have been in a lot of pain and I’ve had to take more breaks to roll them out to continue hiking. No matter how tired I am, I have to roll out my feet at the end of the day or they fee pretty rough the next day. I’ve also been dealing with some blisters and some chafing, so basically everything hurts! Doing miles on miles every single day is a lot of work, and we are sore every day. Other hikers that we’ve met who have done other thru hikes assure us that we will get our trail legs (eventually) but it’s going to take about 3 weeks
Ok, enough complaining!! We have met some amazing people. Landon’s cousin Justin hiked out with us the first day and it was fun to give him a taste of the trail. There was a small group of people that we started with who have been a bit faster than us and are now ahead of us on the trail, but maybe we’ll run into them again!
We met a mother and son duo named Chris and Pat. Pat is a psychologist at a University and counsels students. She was the nicest friendliest little lady and I immediately liked her. Chris, her son, works in film media and is trying to become a landscape photographer. They were both lovely but Pat can't go very fast so I'm not sure we'll see them again, but we're following each other on Instagram now.
We’ve spent quite a bit of time with a small group of hikers, hiking and also hanging out with them in Julian (where we are taking our first zero day, no hiking and only lots of resting, eating and socializing). Half of them are not American which is exciting! Florian is from Germany and is a super interesting guy. He works for Google and has lived in Australia, the UK, and most recently in San Francisco. We talked about the differences between Germany and Europe, some about politics (how crazy American politics are compared to relatively boring German ones), gun control, Mental illness and lack of resources in America, our messed up healthcare system, the largeness of Australian huntsman spiders, and a whole bunch of other things. Lauren is from Canada and loves to quiz you about geography and ask fun questions. Today she asked "which animal most represents the place that you live?" Landon and I debated for a while and decided on a big horn sheep 🐑. She and Florian met on the JMT and are hiking together as friends as they both have significant others. She is always scavenging for everyone’s extra food and someone suggested that her trail name be Trash Panda (people give each other “trail names” on thru hikes, and then that’s how people introduce themselves. We haven’t gotten ours yet but it’s only a matter of time). I don’t think she accepted that trail name though 😂

Another woman from the group is from Germany named Silke who is a bit more shy but still friendly, and man is she fit. She just blazed past us on the trail today. We also gave her a piece of pop tart and some skittles to try, and she hated both, which was very funny to watch her disgusted reaction. She hasn’t built up the junk food tolerance that we have I suppose, it takes years to build and I started very young! Carolina is from the Czech Republic, and has a great sense of humor. I can’t imagine the kind of bravery it takes to go to a foreign country where you know no one and the language spoken isn’t your first language, and taking on a monumental task like hiking the PCT. It’s pretty incredible and I have a lot of respect for all the hikers, but especially the foreign ones. We took a picture yesterday before Carolina had showered and she said “I look so dirty and crazy!” 😂 I ask just about everyone “what does your family think of your coming out to do this?” and the most common answers include “they don’t really get it...” and “They think I’m crazy.”
Otter is a 58 year old guy who was in the airforce for 30 years and has spent the last 5 years of his retirement hiking and traveling. He hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2019. Otter said that he decided to hike the AT initially because he read a story of a guy in his town who hiked it when he was 18. The guy had to ask permission from the board of education in Virginia to graduate high school early in order to hike it, and they told him no, so he quit high school and did it anyways. Otter told us that he read that and it stuck with him, and he made it a goal of his to hike the AT someday. He said it took 35 years, but he always remembered that guy and wanted to do it. Just goes to show that you never know what kind of impact you can have on the people around you! He has been very kind to us and let us come to the Airbnb that he had rented to do laundry and shower when we got into Julian, and we have used the Airbnb as a hangout zone for our whole group yesterday and today, which has been great. After showering and having clean clothes, we almost felt like normal people 😂. In Mt Laguna at mile 42, we showered in a campground bathroom and washed our laundry in the shower like the hiker trash we now are. Real food from a restaurant and a cold drink from a trail angel (people that provide food/drinks/rides to hikers) is also incredible. When you’re living so minimally, the little things are a big deal!
Lastly we have Brandon, who I met on Instagram last year and was also supposed to hike the trail but canceled due to Covid. He ended up getting a permit for this year too and started the day after us (coincidentally he is also a travel nurse). Last night, after hanging out at the Airbnb, We camped behind the Julian Market (they allow PCT hikers to camp there) and Brandon came too. At 5:30 in the morning after just settling back down into his sleeping bag after getting up to pee, he hears a voice say “oh good, you’re up. I really need someone to talk to.” He looks over and sees this strange girl that he doesn’t know (and wasn’t there when we went to bed) who is wrapped up in her sleeping bag. He says “Oh, um..are you ok?” And she says “I have no pants”. And proceeds to tell him that she ripped her hiking shorts and didn’t carry any warm sleeping clothes because they were too heavy. He tells her that she needs to have warm base layers if she is going to continue hiking (and not die) and that she can pick some up at the gear store in town. She tells him that she asked the guy she was hiking with if she could come and cuddle with him and he told her no, so she knocked on some random strangers window at 3 AM and asked for a ride from Mt Laguna to Julian, and the stranger gave her a ride (and luckily didn’t murder her). So that’s how she ended up on that back porch in Julian, possibly staring at Brandon for hours and willing him to wake up to tell him this. Apparently she talked to him for about 45 more minutes and at some point said that she was waiting for her meds to arrive. He said “Maybe you should call your family?” And she said “no way! They’ll freak out” 😬. Landon and I were returning from using the bathroom and we walked right past them, I thought that they knew each other somehow and somehow missed the pleading desperation in Brandon’s eyes to help him in this incredibly awkward 5:30 AM conversation with this random girl. Eventually she ended up going to the pie shop across the street and sitting in there to get warm and charge her phone. Long story short, I really hope that girl is ok, because hiking the PCT is hard enough as it is without having any warm pants. Also, hiking is not a replacement for a support system and therapy. Be safe and get mentally healthy before you hike!!
One last funny story. This morning we were eating at a diner when the waitress came over to take our order. She looked at me hesitantly and said “Um...I’m not sure how to handle this...you have a spider on your hat.” I yelped and threw my hat on the table. She grabbed my hat and took it outside and gently shook it off and de-spidered it for me before bringing it back to me 😥. What a good lady!! Please tell people if they are wearing spiders and help them out. I guess I am just becoming one with nature now.
Anyways, this is long enough, but I just want to say that we’ve had lots of great experiences, seen beautiful scenery, and met awesome people. Even though this is incredibly hard, it’s such a cool adventure and I am loving having a great partner to experience it with me. Hoping my feet are doing better in the next section and that none of my blisters get infected! Our friends helped me shake down my pack today and I was able to get rid of at least a pound in weight. When you carry everything on your back, hips and shoulders, every little ounce makes a difference! Much love to everyone and thanks for the support, it’s been a great first week!

TWB International Student Fund Raiser!
Tumblr media
Greetings! TWB (The Winter Bunny) here!  (See my DA Journal for more, or keep reading below! <3)
Hello everyone! The purpose of this journal is to spread a little awareness of my situation and to help me get back into school in the states via my GoFundMe campaign. This is a very time sensitive issue and the window of opportunity is fast coming to a close. School begins on January 8th, 2018, which is only 2 months away. So, allow me to lay out the foundations of what is happening in my little corner of the world. I want to explain exactly what has happened and what you would be donating to. 
Roughly 5 years ago, I was in university, living in the States and getting very close to graduating when tragedy hit. One of my oldest and best friends was a victim of a triple homicide. The case dragged out for 8 to 9 months before it was declared a cold case, and he became another obscure black kid murdered due to gang violence that had nothing to do with him... The only information I could gather were in scattered news reports. His parents would not answer my calls... My friend, his girlfriend and her little brother were all murdered in his home. He was stabbed, and then shot down. The long and short of it is, this mentally broke my down. My roommates, (one of which is on DA) watched my mental health deteriorate and the panic attacks kicked in to high gear and every morning I woke up stricken with fear. To add to this, the funds I had to stay in school and in uni had run out. Meaning, I had to leave the country. So, with this all on my mind, I packed my bags and flew to Australia to be with my dad. 2 weeks after landing, he had a severe heart attack - a triple bypass and wound up in hospital. It was touch and go, and just as he was healing, he developed a gull blade infection, and was back in the hospital for an even longer duration of time. All money saved went out the window again, and I knew I was going to be stuck in Australia for far longer than 6 months... It has been 5 years that I have been here and in those five years we’ve had more funerals than I care to recall. I put my dreams of school on the shelf and went into survival mode and just tried to get used to the fact that I was going to stay here, possibly longer than 5 years. But the opportunity has come to me to start again. A second chance. I have been accepted into University, but the deadline for certain fees is closing. If I miss this window, I will be stuck here in Australia for another year, possibly more, and I cannot bear to think of that as my only option. My GoFundMe campaign is set up in order to help me pay for the International Student Fees that will allow me to obtain my F1 Visa. The cost for this visa is $4,000. What will this money go towards? It goes towards me and my schooling. This money is the “comfort” zone that the uni has set up for International Students and the F1 International Student Visa. The money will be put towards two semesters at school, towards my classes, tuition, books, housing, and food. The university does not keep it but uses it as a means for students like me to have a little peace of mind when we fly overseas to go to uni. So, in order for me to get my visa to enter the country, I need my F1 Visa and in order to get that, I must raise $4,000 grand. That is my target goal. Ontop of this I must also be able to pay to move to the States, and a plane ticket is not cheap. I will be lucky to be able to get there with $2,000. In total, my ideal goal is $6,000 in USD currency - but I am estimating I would be lucky and blessed just to get the $4,000 USD so that is what I am aiming for and my biggest goal at this point in time. Again, this is a time sensitive issue, and one that is causing me more sleepless nights than I care to admit. I’ve been holding art sales to try to make the difference but any money I make goes straight back to bills, rent, food, ect ect. My last big batch of commissions have cost me too much... I was severely under pricing my work, and then putting too much effort and detail into those under priced commissions and I did not realise this till I was almost out of savings and half way through commissions. Shortly after this my laptop broke down entirely. I’ve had to take it in to be fixed twice and have lost ALL my art, my files, documents, everything is gone. I’ve bene having to rebuild everything from scratch, and the cost of repairing my laptop has put a significant dent into my already depleted savings. Because of this, I cannot offer any more art sales at this time except to put food on my table... It is why I have turned to GoFundMe. And every single little bit helps, whether its $5 to $100. I want to go home. I want to see my family again and I want to see and be able to BE with my sweetheart, Quirky-Middle-Child. As most of you are aware, he and I are dating, and have been dating for the last 6 months now. And getting into Uni and getting my F1 Visa would mean that he and I can finally be together in person again as my uni is only an hour and a half away from where he lives. Reaching this goal would mean the world to both of us. At this point, we are searching for a miracle... In the meant time, I’ve been working upwards of 12 hours a day on commissions to strive to get them done so I can open a new batch and proper prices, and I admit I may charge more and explain that it is for school. Right now, we are running on a lot of faith and prayers, and as I said, every little bit helps. Whether its a donation of $5 or $1,000 or even just spreading the word, everything, everything helps at this point. So if you would like to Donate, you can find me GoFundMe link HERE

In the virtual world of Fallout 76, Gun Runners are making thousands in real-world cash • Eurogamer.net
For some reason I’m rapidly accruing a collection of dumb stories about my time in multiplayer games – and seeing as the Rust murder tale went down so well, I thought I’d recount another. This time it’s about my brief foray into the world of Fallout 76 virtual gunrunning, which has since escalated into a detailed look at the life of the traders making serious bank from selling Fallout 76 items. I don’t know how I ended up here.
Back in January, when the first wave of Fallout 76 backlash was at its peak, vast swathes of the Fallout subreddits were busy complaining about in-game glitches – and in particular, a cheating method called duping. It’s a process by which players exploit a bug to duplicate items, with potentially game-breaking consequences if uncontrolled numbers of top-tier items suddenly flood a community and upset the balance. It’s a phenomenon witnessed in other online games, but for Fallout 76 it was perceived as a serious problem by the community – with Bethesda constantly playing whac-a-mole trying to patch out new glitch methods as they appeared.
Over on eBay, some enterprising hustlers capitalised on the mess by creating their own cottage industry. Using the various duplication methods, the eBay accounts started selling dozens of Fallout 76’s most valuable items. Fallout 76, of course, doesn’t sell guns in its Atomic Shop on account of Bethesda’s pledge to avoid pay-to-win microtransactions (although some argue it’s already broken this pledge) – which means there’s a market for gameplay-affecting items such as weapons and armour (and the raw in-game money and materials to acquire these). Then the secret dev room was discovered and unreleased items started appearing – a problem that hasn’t quite gone away, judging by some recent listings.
Looks like a cat burglar’s been in the dev room at some point.
At the time, I’d already started investigating the item duping, as I was intrigued by how this worked. Who were these people? How did the gun delivery process work? And how had they avoided being caught? I then got a little sidetracked by the sight of those unreleased items and Wooby, so I never got around to talking about Fallout 76’s real-money trading market.
Except, I’d already purchased one of the guns.
.
It didn’t take long to find. A simple eBay search threw up a bunch of options for every platform – and faced with an abundance of choice, I searched for one that looked as overpowered as possible. “Two Shot Explosive Light Machine Gun (2star) (for Fallout 76, PC)” sounded like it would work. It set me back £7.75. The next step in this process was to contact the seller with my Discord name. I can happily report the anime-avatar eBay seller had excellent service: within hours, a Discord friend request popped up and they introduced themselves.
“hello
Tumblr media
“im currently delivering an item to another customer, you’re the next in line so will be available right after im done with him
Tumblr media
“sorry for the delay.”
Not only incredibly polite, the seller also seemed to have a full delivery schedule. It was a level of professionalism I wasn’t prepared for, and I hurried back from my lunch break to arrange an in-game meet-up.
After a small struggle to add each other as friends, I was instructed to join the game world and fast travel to the seller’s location. They’d chosen to set up shop at Charleston Station – a sensible choice, given it’s typically one of the earliest locations players find in the game. The stations are always fairly enemy-free, and heavily populated by players seeking to access the vendor, stash box and workbenches there.
This didn’t stop the transaction from feeling a bit shady.
As I approached the station, I could see the seller gesturing at me to come over. Entering cautiously, in the gloom I could see them squatting in a dingy corner, gesturing towards a rickety old end table, in which I found my gun. As the glorious weapon whirled around my monitor, the seller gave me a thumbs-up, and momentarily forgetting where the emote button was, I performed the universal gaming symbol to express gratitude: jumping. And there it was, my very own illicit gun.
If you want to see all of this play out in real time, you can, because I recorded it. (Apologies for the keyboard clacking away in the background – I left my mic on.)
youtube
Feeling a little dirty after the transaction, this is where I left this story for several months – until recently, when I revisited Fallout 76 to check out the new Fallout 1st subscription. Then, I started wondering to myself: who are these people selling virtual guns on eBay? Is it actually a viable side-hustle?
So I went back to my messages and found my gunrunner. Having confirmed this previously, I knew my seller had used duping as a method to make a vast quantity of weapons, but I wanted to find out more – and they were happy to oblige.
“I just started selling them out of the blue due to frustration with the game not listening to players,” they told me over Discord, explaining it was a matter of making it “easier for others” while also making money for other games on the side. It was their first time selling virtual items, as in other games they played, the market was already oversaturated with “Chinese gold seller sites” (for games like World of Warcraft).
As the seller was mostly unemployed during this period, they had time to hop between deliveries – taking random customers from eBay and “making some notes on delivery times… in order to make buyers aware of some possible delays”.
But then for the million-dollar question: how much had they made from Fallout 76 gunrunning?
“I’ve made around $2k (£1.5k), have been able to customise my gaming PC and can now enjoy high end better current and future games thanks to Fallout 76,” the seller said. “So for at least that reason I’m happy with the game.
“There are people who made over $10k (£7.7k) or even more, due to them setting up personal sites listing those items, [with] an even broader customer base and no limitations or special costs imposed by eBay (some packs they were selling were even $100 or $300+).”
This Lithuanian company started out in Elder Scrolls Online gold farming, and now sells Fallout 76 guns for £20-30 a pop.
While it didn’t sound like a sustainable long-term earner, I was still surprised by the numbers. Yet it was a gravy train that eventually ended for the seller, thanks to measures taken by both Zenimax and Bethesda.
“The first ones who did something were Zenimax [Bethesda’s parent company] by sending a global notice to eBay to force people selling in-game items related to F76 to stop selling them and end the listings, or they would incur in suspension of the eBay account, at which point I retired from this practice,” the seller claimed. “After I stopped, some weeks later the mass ban happened and I was included in it.”
The seller later clarified they got caught up in the February banwave, which cleared out a significant portion of the dupers. Judging by those dates, the seller must have made the $2k in less than four months.
With a steer from my eBay seller, I spent some time trying to get in contact with traders on the sites where weapons bundles are still being sold for up to £1500, such as G2G, along with privately-owned sites U4N and U4GM where items and weapons are bought directly from suppliers to be re-sold. Generally speaking, the sites sell items and in-game currency for a wide variety of online games (such as WOW, Rocket League and even Pokémon Sword and Shield), and often charge more than sellers on eBay – although the “face-to-face” delivery methods are the same. eBay takes a 10 per cent cut for each item sold – and while G2G starts at 9.99 per cent, it lowers to 4.99 for experienced traders. U4GM takes a more direct approach by purchasing bulk items from players, and then selling them on the platform. On a smaller scale, some traders post adverts on forums and arrange trades over Discord, with payments made via PayPal or cryptocurrencies such as Skrill – thereby bypassing service fees entirely.
After several attempts, I did manage to talk to one of the traders on the website G2G, who had an extensive trading record with over 250 items sold on that site alone. They’re currently listing one of the super expensive packs my eBay seller had talked about – a triple-item pack for £779.32 (although my eBay gunrunner claimed this is far less egregious than some of the listings from earlier this year, before the banwaves).
It does seem that some of these extremely high-price packs are more for show (or perhaps out of hope) than a realistic listing. The G2G seller’s biggest deal to date, they told me, was actually a $250 (£189.96) strangler heart power armour set – which has now been reduced to $60 (£46.53) thanks to increased competition from other sellers. The seller also estimated they’d made $20k (£15.2k) from selling Fallout 76 items – which I found hard to believe, but not impossible, given their activity was split across several trading websites.
While my seller’s Fallout 76 eBay journey had ended, even checking the site now, it’s possible to spot plenty of people still selling Fallout 76 items in bulk. Some of the most expensive weapons still being sold are called “legacy weapons”: such as the powerful explosive energy weapons Bethesda removed from loot drops at the beginning of the year, but not from player inventories. The most expensive one I saw was a £249.99 “furious explosive gatling plasma” (now £199.99) with god roll stats (effectively the best stats you can get from a RNG drop).
I eventually managed to get in contact with another eBay seller, who provided me with an up-to-date perspective on the current state of Fallout 76 gunrunning on the site. This one told me they’d been involved with duping and in-game trading from the very start, before the practice eventually moved to real-money trading (RMT).
“I have used duping and greatly profited from it – I won’t deny it,” they said, adding they were only aware of one publicly-known throwables duping method at present. “It’s quiet now compared to [the] old days but you can still make some money. I have [a] few deliveries a day and I don’t really play the game itself due to lack of new content. My endgame is effective cap generation methods and trading.”
The seller was unable to tell me how much they’d made from selling on eBay, but it was interesting to learn that after a certain point, duping was no longer necessary to produce goods. Once you get rich in-game in terms of caps and assets, they explained, it’s relatively easy to keep up with the demand for items.
I thought my journey into the world of eBay Fallout 76 trading would end there – but little did I know, I was about to encounter one of the biggest sellers on the platform. Curious about the expensive legacy weapons, I shot a message to the gatling gun listing’s owner, who runs the store eBay store Fallout76Armoury. The seller, a college student who goes by the name Martin Tim in the Fallout community, boasts one of the biggest collections of Fallout 76 items on eBay – with over 140 items for PS4 currently listed for sale.
“I noticed a demand for items and a market I can invest my time in so I took advantage of it”, Martin told me, explaining it had taken a long time to reach the major leagues in Fallout 76 item trading. “The process of me getting where I am now was not easy. I invested a lot of time trading my way up in ranks to access information and items I’m in need of… I’ve had to build relationships and a reputation with people who have knowledge of an upcoming duplication glitches and top tier items I can use to trade and build an inventory that I can sell.”
For Martin, the first few months were time-consuming thanks to the need to build his reputation and promote his store – along with establishing a system to manage 12 different PlayStation accounts and document all his items on spreadsheets. Having built that trust, customers then started to approach him – and he now says there is “no overwhelming aspect” to the trading at all: merely meeting customers in-game to deliver items, and updating his spreadsheets to keep clients informed of new gear.
While Martin has noticed a gradual decrease in demand for items, he says it’s still an extremely profitable industry – claiming he’s sold weapons anywhere from £10-£500 each, making a total of $55k (£41.8k) in the 10 months since he started selling the items. “I consider myself the most successful ‘individual’ seller on the entirety of the platform and I say this as I have spoken to other competing sellers from all platforms,” Martin added.
Although he couldn’t provide records to back up that figure, I manually trawled through the publicly-viewable feedback on Martin’s eBay page, and the sum of these alone is impressive. The most expensive item sold on this list is a custom bundle for £165, and roughly totalling up the items gets you slightly over £11k. This number, of course, doesn’t include sales where best price was accepted (and therefore hidden) – nor does it give us Martin’s total sales, as many customers fail to leave reviews. Martin also claims to sell on platforms other than eBay – with about 60 per cent of his deals made in private DMs to avoid website service fees. Privately, Martin also showed me sales records of the highest-priced items he’d sold, including a gun which shipped for £250. With these factors in mind, the publicly-verifiable figure does make Martin’s claim seem plausible.
While real-money trading seems to be against Zenimax’s terms of service – and selling duped items definitely is – when asked if Bethesda had tried to crack down on their trading, one seller argued there was a difference between duping and RMT.
“They have not and they should not – traders are providing a service that people are happy to pay for… RMT is a just a side effect for any ‘serious’ MMO. They should (and have) cracked down on duping in-game – I had two accounts banned for 100k Ultracite ammo but that is just the cost of doing business.”
Martin, meanwhile, said he’s never been banned. He estimates 80 per cent of his stock is duped (something he says is due to a spate of mass duping crazes previously flooding the market – claiming he’s only been involved in later “more controlled duping”), and he’s managed to avoid hitting the weight cap by spreading his inventory over 12 PSN accounts and 70 different Fallout 76 characters.
“Bethesda has never interfered with any real life currency trading … simply because they couldn’t care less,” he added. “Bethesda is a multi-million company who I assume does not consider from my perspective sellers who are selling items and somewhat promoting their game.”
Of course, the Fallout 76 sellers were probably never going to argue against their own interests – but they did make a fair point about RMT. Given the, um, buzz around Fallout 76 has now calmed down, it wouldn’t make sense for Bethesda or Zenimax to really crack down – and from the sounds of it, the most public duping methods have been patched out, and the demand for items is slowly decreasing. So long as people aren’t using mass duping methods to produce the weapons – which upsets the game balance and has been blamed for destabilising servers – it at least seems relatively harmless.
Eurogamer contacted Bethesda and eBay to ask about the sale of Fallout 76 in-game items for real money, but both failed to comment by time of publication.
Given the amounts these sellers made from selling weapons, it does make you wonder how much Bethesda could have made if it had straight-up sold weapons in the Atomic Shop – a slightly scary thought. But above all else, this experimentation with duping methods and glitches to produce grey-market product – delivered via in-game meet-ups, arranged on Discord – feels very Fallout. “Gun Runner” is even the name of a perk in Fallout 76 – while in New Vegas, the Gun Runners are weapons merchants who supply both the NCR and the Courier. One source told me he estimates 90 per cent of Fallout 76’s wealth is held by less than one per cent of the player base: a small group of glitchers, dupers and traders who all know each other and share secrets. And aside from being strangely similar to our own world, that in-game wealth can clearly be converted into real-world bank through gunrunning. Now that’s post-nuclear entrepreneurial spirit to make Mr. House proud.

Review: My Hero One’s Justice
My Inexperienced Naruto: Final Hero Storm
Have you learnt My Hero Academia? How about Boku no Hero Academia? Should you’re conscious of the blockbuster manga and anime collection, that goes by both a type of names, then My Hero One’s Justice may simply be the combating sport for you.
Should you’re by some probability not conscious of it… properly, it’d nonetheless be the combating sport for you, although at that time you may should ask your self how a lot you just like the Naruto Final Ninja Storm collection.
My Hero One’s Justice (PS4 [Reviewed], Xbox One, Nintendo Change, PC) Developer: Byking Writer: Bandai Namco Video games Launched: October 26, 2018 MSRP: $59.99
[Observe: This overview might comprise spoilers for the My Hero Academia anime.]
On the off probability that somebody is confused concerning the reasonably awkward title, this sport is certainly the English launch of My Hero Academia: One’s Justice. Regardless of the shenanigans  that precipitated this awkward re-branding could also be, they haven’t affected the sport beneath in any method I can detect. Followers can relaxation assured that they gained’t must report this sport to the @bootleg_stuff Twitter account. Then once more, it’s onerous to make that mistake when you really see the content material. The sport’s so marinated in My Hero Academia that it virtually assumes gamers have, at minimal, seen a big chunk of the anime collection.
For the completely uninitiated, although, the setup is fairly easy both method. Within the close to future, human society has gone superhuman, as most individuals are actually born with a superpowered means, or “Quirk”. The change has led to the rise of a brand new kind of celeb civil servant: the crime-fighting Professional Hero. Chief amongst them is All May, the ultra-strong “Image of Peace” and mentor to collection protagonist Izuku “Deku” Midoriya, a hero-obsessed fanboy born “Quirkless”. Deku is chosen by All May to inherit his energy (a mighty Quirk referred to as “One For All”), and enrolls into U.A. Academy, the premier instructional institute for aspiring professional heroes. There he meets his classmates, and makes some enemies, notably the League of Villains, an delinquent group led by a murderous jerk named Tomura Shiragaki, and “All For One”, a strong supervillain and All May’s arch-nemesis.
youtube
All of the above is just about coated within the opening crawl, after which the marketing campaign mode leaps straight into the center of the second anime season, overlaying occasions as much as concerning the center of the third season, with principally no deviation past barely remixing circumstances to permit for extra brawling. In any other case, it is a straight retread of what is gone earlier than, that includes many of the principal Hero Academia forged. To pad issues out a bit, the identical occasions might be performed from the Villains’ perspective, placing gamers answerable for characters comparable to Tomura, Dabi, Himiko Toga, and even All For One himself. Future characters, like Shoto Todoroki’s dad, Endeavor, and an alternate model of Deku utilizing his “Shoot Type” combating strategies, have been introduced as DLC downloads.
Marketing campaign phases might be replayed to satisfy problem targets and unlock new customization choices for multiplayer. A extra distinct “Mission Mode” imposes stricter circumstances, a primary Coaching mode supplies an area to observe, whereas an Arcade mode rounds out the single-player choices with a fast six-match run in opposition to AI opponents. Multiplayer-wise, primary on-line matchmaking, foyer, and native versus choices are offered, however event modes or the form of community-boosting measures that extra severe fighter followers may want are absent.
There’s lots to get foolish with for My Hero Academia followers, although, because the in-game foreign money store can unlock all method of customization choices, together with alternate voice strains for intros, alternate win screens, participant profile flairs, and alternate colours and equipment for the in-game fashions. It is nowhere close to as strong because the character creators for the likes of Tekken 7 and Soul Calibur, however for those who ever needed to battle because the bird-headed Tokoyami whereas carrying an enormous masks of his personal head on prime of his precise head, that is undoubtedly the place to be.
It is also the place to be for those who’ve been jonesing for an additional combating sport within the mould of the Naruto-based Final Ninja Storm video games. For all intents and functions, the core mechanics of My Hero One’s Justice so carefully mimic Cyberconnect2’s landmark anime fighter that I would consider you for those who instructed me this was some type of My Hero Academia-themed whole conversion of the latest PC version of Final Ninja Storm four. And that is not a nasty factor in any respect, since these video games are amongst my favourite fighters of all time.
Just like the Final Ninja Storm titles, One’s Justice is an input-light fighter with Three-D motion set in a big area. Characters can transfer round freely, in addition to use numerous auto-aimed ranged and melee assaults to shut the space and arrange air juggles. Regular assaults and “Quirk Specials” are simply accessed on the face buttons, and inputs hardly ever get extra difficult than merely pushing the stick in a route and hitting a key. 
Filling an excellent meter lets a participant toss out a “Plus Extremely” assault, which usually is available in two varieties that take up a number of “fees” of the tremendous bar. For youthful gamers and people who need a better time, an “auto” mode will robotically string collectively primary combos, permitting gamers to only hammer the assault button repeatedly. Tellingly, this the default “Regular” setting, with a barely trickier “Guide” mode letting extra superior contenders make the most of cancels and different enjoyable stuff.
Although the inputs are principally uniform throughout the roster, each character behaves pretty otherwise based mostly on their Quirks and different traits. Deku and All May are pretty simple energy fighters, however Bakugou works finest when he can nook his opponent and feed them a gradual weight loss plan of explosive demise. Tokoyami, who can name out a shadow-like buddy to battle with, can assault from two instructions without delay, whereas Todoroki, along with his dual-mode ice and hearth powers, works fairly otherwise within the air from how he does on the bottom.
That stated, even combating pretty brain-dead AI opponents in story mode shortly surfaced a number of the annoyances of fight. The reliance on homing assaults and air juggling makes the combating really feel a bit floaty and unresponsive, and just about everybody has too few methods to interrupt out of a combo as soon as they get caught in a single. Bar a “counter” assault that has an uninterruptible animation, many fights simply boiled right down to who may stun-lock their opponent lengthy sufficient to land an excellent.
In the end, the combating in My Hero One’s Justice feels prefer it lacks the fine-tuning and extra elegant qualities of the Final Ninja Storm video games it cribs from. Additional, some facets simply do not look proper within the context of the supply fiction. Byking’s legacy, making high-flying video games like Gunslinger Stratos and Rise of Incarnates, reveals itself in simply how a lot of the sport might be performed within the air. Jumps and dashes commonly take characters floating excessive into the sky, even when only a few within the roster even have the flexibility to hover. In a number of the phases that characteristic a ring-out mechanic, it was hilarious to see two characters simply dashing and double-, triple-, quadruple- and quintuple-jumping to combo one another off of the protected floor. It was like the sport was inadvertently channeling Smash Brothers at instances, and sadly not in a great way.
That being stated, it does get the spectacle proper elsewhere. The sport appears beautiful, and in contrast to many combating video games, takes the aesthetic enchantment of a super-fight simply leveling the zone critically. Although solely beauty, there is a stage of consideration given to environmental destruction within the sport that I discover completely joyful. Over the course of a spherical gamers will flip locations like clear metropolis streets, immaculate school rooms, peaceable houses, and the frontage of U.A. Academy itself right into a charred, smoking wreck. The sheer quantity of particles flying round and oddly weightless ins and outs being knocked about by the shockwaves, explosions, and super-powered hammer-throws is sufficient to make my base mannequin PS4 flip its cooling followers on full blast (it seemed like I used to be enjoying subsequent to a vacuum cleaner). Bar a couple of noticeable drops when a whole lot of hearth or particle results on display screen, the sport moved at a excessive, pretty constant, framerate.
How a lot you get out of My Hero One’s Justice will doubtless rely on how a lot you take pleasure in both My Hero Academia or how a lot you want a extremely accessible, style-over-substance fighter. On condition that we reside in a time with a seemingly unprecedented variety of completely improbable anime fighters, that is perhaps an enormous ask for some. In the long run, the sport’s greatest sin could also be not embodying U.A.’s “Plus Extremely” spirit, and easily settling for being an honest, handsome combating sport tackle a well-liked anime franchise.

5.04 The Endling #44
MALLOY: Remarkable, isn't he? Perfect limbs.
Plenty of bone.
Like God's own racehorse.
NIRAH: Extraordinary.
Tell me about the stud fees.
150,000 euros a mare.
150 mares a year.
Bit early to put him out to stud, if you ask me.
Truth is, Fitz stands to make more on the stables than on the racetrack.
I know 150K is a pretty penny, but your mare won't find a better match.
[LIGHTER CLICKS] I agree.
Tra la, la-tra la, tra-ah, la [CHUCKLES] To Fitzpleasure.
To Fitz.
Slainte.
Tra-ah, la Unfair, really.
Stallions get the prestige, but breeding a quality racehorse is as much about the dam as the sire.
Tra la, la-tra, la, tra-ah - In your snatch fits pleasure - What have you done? Broom-shaped pleasure You're a beautiful creature.
Too beautiful for this world.
[HORSE WHINNIES] It'll all be over soon.
Tra la la Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh Blended by the lights [HORSE WHINNIES]
Hey, you want to grab, uh, lunch? Yeah.
There's a burger place in Adams Morgan I've been wanting to try.
Lunch sounds so I believe the word you're looking for is "amazing.
" Yeah, completely amazing, but, like, something parents would do.
- [CELLPHONE RINGING]
Oh! Yeah.
If either of us had even remotely normal parents.
Now, that's the word I was looking for.
Lunch sounds so completely normal.
[CELLPHONE RINGING] You know I love normal.
Someone's really trying to get ahold of you.
I know.
Sorry.
Hello? NIK: Pete called.
He ran a search on the DNA from the bones.
Uh, sorry, not interested.
Not interested? Oh, right.
Liz is there.
Look, you shouldn't call this early.
- Telemarketer.
- They're not supposed to be calling us.
Look, Pete wants to meet.
His apartment.
2:00.
Hey, we're on the no-call list.
What you're doing is illegal.
She's right.
It is.
And I can't believe I let the two of you rope me into it.
[CELLPHONES BEEP] At lunch no calls, no interruptions.
Agreed.
Just you and me being normal.
- Yeah.
- [CELLPHONE BUZZES]
Reddington? Nice upgrade from the no-tell motel.
Can you afford it?
It's a three-day rental Dembe found through some online site.
Something b-n-b? Are you familiar with such a thing?
Uh, me and a billion other people.
They match hosts who want to rent out their homes with guests who want to rent them and get a commission from each one. It's a license to print money. The renters never have to meet the owners. The Robinsons simply put my key in a lockbox outside. Completely anonymous.
Peel.
Ah!
Great ideas are like great athletes efficient, elegant, powerful.
I'm aroused by both and mourn the death of either.
"Champion racehorse and trainer die in stable fire.
" Fitzpleasure was the greatest European racehorse in a generation.
His stud price was set at 150,000 euros, but he only covered a single mare before the fire.
One.
Which is why I know he was murdered.
Peel.
It doesn't say anything here about murder or arson.
RED: In horse breeding, genes are everything, and Fitzpleasure had the best ones. His owners stood to make millions spreading his seed. Now he's dead, and another owner is conveniently positioned to reap the windfall.
The owner of Fitzpleasure's only offspring.
- Bananas.
- What? No.
"Pot," "mustard," "satchel" - What's that? Q-I? Qi? - Chur [LAUGHING] Oh, come on! It means "life force.
" Honestly.
You're like one of those extraordinary children who knows how to spell "onomatopoeia.
" But even he couldn't spell out why a horse killer is on the Blacklist.
The last white rhino, the final dodo bird the only surviving member of a group or species is called an endling.
You're not looking for a horse killer, Elizabeth, you're in search of the endling himself the nom de plume of the legendary creator of one-of-a-kind items.
LIZ: Baghdad, 2015.
An RPG took down a private plane carrying of the only two known statues of the Sumerian goddess Inanna.
Four crew members were killed in the crash, leaving the only other statue in private hands.
Turkey, 2016.
A nursery cultivating a unique species of drought-resistant barley was stolen and three botanists were murdered.
The genetic profile used to create the seed was taken and all but one of the samples destroyed, giving the new owner a virtual monopoly on the next harvest.
Reddington believes her next target is on U.S. soil.
"Her"?
Well, according to the report from the Irish authorities, the trainer who died in the fire, he had a visitor just before the incident woman of Middle Eastern descent, early 30s, going by the alias Alicia Grey.
The best way to find her is by talking to the people who benefit from her actions Fitzpleasure's sole offspring.
Do we know the owner? Yep.
Caleb Hess CEO of an international security contracting firm based in Hanover, Maryland.
Yes, I benefited from the tragedy.
RESSLER: Your horse tripled in value overnight.
That's not a benefit.
That's a windfall.
Call it what you like.
It's still a tragedy I had nothing to do with.
NAVABI: We reviewed your company's financial statements.
You have quite a bit of debt.
You can't pay your creditors.
We're having issues, yes, but I don't see what that has We know the woman that you hired used the alias Alicia Grey.
What's her real name? I don't know because I didn't hire You're the largest shareholder, and when your stock nosedives, so does your savings.
Now, this is a tough position to be in for someone who sees themselves as a provider the person who takes care of the family.
And that's how you see yourself, isn't it, Mr. Hess? It's why you transferred ownership of your prized thoroughbred to your son just days after the unfortunate incident with Fitzpleasure sent the value of his new asset through the roof.
You may be headed towards bankruptcy, but it seems your son is wealthier than ever.
I transferred an asset to my child for estate-tax reasons.
There's nothing illegal in that.
No, there is not, but it is illegal to conspire to murder a racehorse.
And when we find out you did that, which we will, as well as your son benefiting from that windfall, we will go after him as a co-conspirator.
You leave my son out of this.
Sure.
As soon as you tell us what we need to know.
NAVABI: The woman who is she? She never said anything about murder.
All she said was that she could increase my foal's value.
- She didn't say how.
- How did you contact her? I didn't.
She came to me.
So, how did you pay her? She didn't want money.
She wanted information.
What kind of information?
Security protocols we put in place for the daughter of a king.
- Who is she? –
Princess Sonya of Montenegro.
My firm trained her team years ago.
She'll have at least four bodyguards working in coordination with local law enforcement.
She uses aliases, decoy vehicles, and books an entire floor wherever she's staying.
[CELLPHONE RINGS, BEEPS] - Dresner.
- Where are we at? Uh, the numbers are improving to hit our targets.
Good.
Prepare station three.
I should have an addition soon.
What does the endling want with European royalty?
The princess is the sole heir to the throne.
If she dies, the royal family dies with her.
- Who benefits from that? - According to the State Department, King Jovan and his daughter instituted reforms that were unpopular with the country's hard-liners.
So the princess' death means the end of the king's line and a win for the reactionaries.
ARAM: Okay, according to the Diplomatic Security Service, Princess Sonya is here in D.C.
to deliver a speech at the UNESCO Conference, and she has a room block at the Greylock Hotel in downtown D.
C.
under the name Elise Wolf.
Aram, alert hotel security.
Ressler, Navabi, Keen get to that hotel now.
"of all the long-standing" [SPEAKS SERBIAN] [SPEAKS SERBIAN] Perfect.
Please come in.
Donald Ressler, FBI.
Tom Campbell, Head of Security.
We spoke on the phone.
Ms.
Wolf has the entire 15th floor.
What's the fastest way there? Main elevator.
South hall.
LIZ: Go.
I'll keep an eye on surveillance.
I'm gonna need access to your security feeds.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS] End of the hall.
Suite 1550.
Hey, wait a minute.
What's going on? Agent Donald Ressler, FBI.
We're gonna need to see your princess.
There's been a threat.
MAN: Checking the stairwell now.
[ELECTRICITY CRACKLES] [ELEVATOR BELL DINGS] Wait.
Go back.
That stairwell.
Command.
Command, we lost power on the 15th floor.
What's going on? MAN: There's been a breach on floor 15.
We lost the feeds! We need to get her out of there right now! [BEEPING] Back! Back! Back! Now! [ALARM BLARING] RESSLER: Don't shoot! FBI! I need confirmation.
What's going on? FBI.
Lower your weapons.
What's going on? Princess Sonya, there's been a breach.
I need you to come with us.
[BLARING CONTINUES] RESSLER: We've got the princess.
We're on the move.
Ana Dewan? - Yes? - Diplomatic security.
Please come with me.
The princess needs you.
Please! It's urgent! NAVABI: Are you all right? - Wait.
Ana.
- It's okay.
You're safe now.
Please.
Please.
No.
Ana.
We can't leave Ana.
NIRAH: Hurry.
Please hurry.
Get in.
[ELECTRICITY CRACKLES]
PETE: I was able to pull a sample off the bones and run a DNA sequence, which, when you think about it, is pretty remarkable considering the - Did you get a name? –
No. None of the databases I searched had a match.
Even the federal DNA database?
CODIS is a two-step process, and I can't get past step one.
I can run the search remotely which is super illegal but that will only get you a match.
To get an identity, you need a Fed to authorize the request.
So, you can know the bones match someone in the system, but you can't get the name of that someone without an FBI agent signing off.
Which ain't gonna happen.
Whatever you're thinking - I could just take her credentials.
stop thinking it.
She doesn't even have to know.
That's a terrible idea.
An ID would work.
So, I've started her on Epogen, B12, testosterone.
If she responds like the others, I'll have her up to the desired volume soon.
Alert your team.
I want them ready when I return.
[CLATTER] RED: Hello, there.
DEMBE: Somebody knows we're here.
Pity.
I was just starting to feel at home.
I need a name.
The person who hired you.
No one.
We weren't hired.
Proverbs 21, verse 10 Solomon's dissertation on the wicked and the company they keep.
Do you know it? Proverbs? Stirs up more passion than any other verse we study in Talmud class.
"There is no honor among thieves.
" I disagree.
A few thieves have been among the most honorable men I have ever known.
What about you Sven are you an honorable man? Uh yeah.
I think so.
Hmm.
Let's put that to the test, shall we? [MAN GROANS] [CLATTERING] I need a name.
The Mailman.
That's all I know.
Nash talked to him.
The Mailman sent us.
I do like a nice, long soak, don't you? [GASPING] The Mailman.
Where can we find him?
COOPER: I know this is a very difficult time for you, but understanding why Ana was targeted is our best chance of getting her back safely.
Can you think of any reason why someone would target your assistant instead of you? Ana isn't my assistant.
She's It's hard to describe what she is.
I'm pregnant. My child will be second in line to the throne.
If something happens to me while I'm pregnant, if I need emergency surgery, Ana was here to provide a transfusion.
Why not get one at a hospital?
I have Lutheran B-negative blood. It's a rare type. There's no guarantee they would have it.
But Ana does.
That's why you keep her around? She's a walking blood bank?
Actually, Ana and I don't have the same blood type.
You're telling me seven people in the world have Ana's blood type? Seven? Out of 7 billion? Incredible, right? That is why it is known as golden blood.
I understand that it's rare, but not why it would be valuable to someone like the princess.
Okay.
So, 99% of us have high-prevalence antigens in our blood.
If the ones who don't receive a transfusion from the ones who do, the incompatibility can prove fatal.
So, finding a donor for people with rare blood types, like the princess, is super difficult.
And if they're in a crisis, I can only imagine it would be a desperate race against the clock.
And golden blood is compatible with the princess' blood type.
With any rare blood types.
It is the only known universal donor which, obviously, makes its life-saving capabilities enormous.
RESSLER: Yeah, when there were seven.
Imagine if the endling kills all but one.
The sole survivor's blood would be worth a king's ransom.
And, according to the Rare Blood Database, two have gone missing within the last three months.
Does the database list the locations of any other golden bloods? In this country, I see one.
Ethan Isaacs, currently in the ICU at D.C. Mercy Hospital.
Navabi, Ressler get there.
TONY: Next.
Next! He's ready for you.
My apologies. That last one on the right, I've see him somewhere.
So have I.
Have you? And where was that?In my dreams.
I have a weakness for bad boys.
[CHUCKLES]
I received two unexpected packages at my residence last night.
Did you bring the packages with you, sir?
I'm afraid they're rather large. They said The Mailman sent them. Imagine my surprise when I realized they meant an actual mailman.
Yeah.
I got no idea who they are.
Let me refresh your memory they're the men you sent to kill me.
Yeah.
Sure thing, Pops.
Whatever you say.
You know, I got a nice roll of stamps for you.
They have Calvin and Hobbes on them.
Why don't you take those?
You don't know who I am?Yeah.
You're a pain in my ass.
But you sent them to my house.
Why? Okay.
Is this a joke? That's Yes.
Janet from circulation sent you here to yank my chain, right? I think you know exactly what I'm talking about.
TONY: Now, listen, pal.
I don't know nothing about you or your houseguests.
And the only person I want to kill is my podiatrist for having my orthotics on backorder.
$59. 98.
Alma, hey.
Ethan was hoping he'd see you before we take him home.
- How's he doing? - Kid's a fighter, but, um there's nothing more the doctors can do but make him comfortable.
Yeah.
I know.
I heard.
He's always hated hospitals, so This way he can be in his room, with us.
That's right.
That's right.
So, the nurses on four made me promise that I would bring Ethan by before he left.
So, why don't you finish up here and come down? They have cake.
[BOTH CHUCKLE] [WHISPERS] Hey, kiddo.
Do you want to get out of here? - Yeah? - Do you want to go home? Okay.
Okay.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS] Agent Ressler, FBI.
We're looking for Ethan Isaacs.
What's wrong? What does the FBI want with our son? We have reason to believe that Ethan is being targeted for abduction.
There must me some mistake.
- Where is here? - He's in his room with a nurse.
Alma said there was gonna be a goodbye party on the fourth floor.
Start lockdown procedure now.
Go! Where are we, Alma? Where's my mommy? Sweetheart, please.
Just get some rest.
Oh! Hey, come on.
What are you doing?
When I was 17 and heading off to the Naval Academy, I sent the most extravagant love letter to Sarah Ellen Winstead. She never replied. To this day, I remain convinced that the post office failed to deliver it, and that if your colleagues had simply done their jobs, the entire arc of my life might have been different. I might have been thinner and living in Maine.
[HOOD SLAMS] You do realize that harassing a federal employee is a felony, right? I'll add it to the list.
Drive.
[ENGINE STARTS] LIZ: 8:00 would be great.
Uh-huh.
Oh, I'm sorry last name Keen.
Thank you.
You planning a hot date?
Cascabel.
Oh, I love Cascabel's.
I know. We're going for dinner tonight.
What do you mean? You can't stay for lunch?No.
I'm sorry.
I got a call in the parking lot.
It was Aram.
He said we had a break in the case.
You don't have to explain.
Ugh! Look at those chickens and the burgers and the fries! [SIGHS] [CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS] Mmm.
Root beer.
Come on.
I should just be able to have lunch with my husband like a normal person.
Yeah, well, you are not a normal person.
You don't have a normal job, and that's okay, 'cause that's what I love about you.
W You said you loved normal.
Well, I did.
And I do.
But normal.
Abnormal.
Deviant.
Whatever you are, I love except hurt, all right? So go save the day, catch the bad guy, whatever you got to do.
Just don't get yourself shot.
Okay.
Hey! Can I get one more of those? Cascabel's at 8:00.
You're buying.
Hey deviant.
It's a big turn-on.
ARAM: All right, after reviewing Ethan's medical file, I found something interesting prior to 2011, it's blank.
How can that be.
He's nine? Because Ethan Isaacs wasn't always Ethan Isaacs.
Exactly.
The Isaacs adopted Ethan in 2010 through an NGO that briefly brought Syrian children to the U.
S.
Ethan Isaacs was born Shahir Ahmad in 2008 in Daraa, Syria, to this woman Nirah Ahmad.
Ethan was taken by his mother.
And adoption records indicate that she has the same rare blood type as her son.
And in a war-torn country like Syria, she must've known that a golden blood has almost no chance of surviving a traumatic injury.
Well, if the mother's a golden blood, then she's also at risk.
So, why didn't she leave with her son?
To fight for her country. She was an active member of the Free Syrian Army until she disappeared in 2014.
LIZ: Right after Ethan got sick. Three months before her first attack.
Where are we on locating her?
When I ran her photo against the images taken from the traffic cams near the hospital, I found this.
NAVABI: Do we have an ID on the driver? I am still working on that.
According to his file, Ethan has progressive idiopathic myocarditis.
Now, the procedure that could save his life would require transfusions of golden blood that the hospital just couldn't provide.
Ethan was being sent home to die.
Instead, his mother kidnapped him.
After kidnapping two other golden bloods.
We've been looking at this all wrong.
She's not kidnapping them to create an endling, she's doing it so that they'll have enough golden blood to perform the procedure.
ARAM: And it's not just the blood she'll need. Myocarditis requires a heart transplant. And in order for his body not to reject it, the heart needs to come from another golden blood.
COOPER: Pull everything DHS has on Nirah Ahmad phone records, passports, known associates.
Get into her life.
Aram, widen the CCT grid and see if we can't get a hit on that car.
I want this woman found before she starts butchering people to save her son.
[SINGING IN NATIVE LANGUAGE] ETHAN: Where are we? Some place safe, habibi.
I want my mommy.
I'm right here, my darling.
And when this is all over, I'll explain everything to you, okay? I promise.
All you need to know is I did everything to protect you.
I don't suppose you're gonna tell me how you managed to get this.
TOM: How long till you ID the bones?Way you're all lathered up, you'd think we were looking at the bones of Osama bin Laden.
Just let me know the minute you get something, all right?
I get it.
I have enemies.
People who want to kill me.
Why is not your concern.
What matters is that, when it comes to my security, I take extraordinary precautions.
Tigger and Pooh violated those precautions at your direction.
I assumed it was to kill me.
If it wasn't, I need you to tell me why they did it.
It wasn't to kill you.
When people go away, they put their mail on hold, right? We keep a list it's a hold list of who's away and how long they're gonna be away for.
And then, while they're gone, we rob them.
That's it.
I know their correspondence.
I know what magazines they subscribe to.
Based on that, maybe their area code.
You know, I can guesstimate the value of the items inside the house.
How extensive is the list?I-It covers the city and the surrounding suburbs.
But it could cover more.
- More? - The hold lists.
Does every post office in the country have them?Yeah.
I suppose so.
And the robbers?I troll the dark web for interested parties.
I take my commission in advance, and then I give out the address.
[CHUCKLING] What a marvelous idea.
Really marvelous.
I mean, except, of course, when the owners rent out their homes while they're away, but that's a small burl in the wood we can sand down.
Wait, So you you don't - you don't live here? - [DOORBELL RINGS] Excuse me.
And w-w-what did you mean by "we"? - Wait.
- Did he say "we"? The endling's name is Nirah Ahmad.
She has a sick child who needs a heart transplant.
My gut tells me that every attack she's responsible for has been to finance this procedure.
And I know for a fact that people will die if we don't find out where that surgery is taking place.
What else do you know?Nothing.
We have a photo, that's it.
And we don't know black-market medicine.
You do.
I've seen him before.
Do you know where to find him? No, but I know who might.
Let me grab my hat.
This should be fun.
[DOORBELL DINGS] RED: Good afternoon, young lady.
I'm here to pick up my labradoodle.
What's the name? I don't think we have any labradoodles in there.
Her name is Edwina.
She was dropped off by my dog walker, Hiram Toomey.
Of course.
Edwina.
I remember darling dog.
Right this way.
Thank you.
LIZ: Where are we? What is this place? RED: The private clinic of Dr.
Melissa Lomay, general surgeon and owner and proprietor of Doctors Without Morals, the first choice in healthcare for the career criminal.
Mm, such nimble fingers.
Brings back memories.
Mm.
Raymond.
How's your ass? Tight as a drum, thanks to you.
We were camping in the altogether under the most delightful autumn moon in the Forest of Dean when a wild pig [LAUGHING] came out of nowhere and gored my left flank, so to speak.
And Melissa here not only slew the beast and salved my wound with a honey of - Yarrow.
- yarrow compress, but also made the most scrumptious pork pie in the monarchy.
Fascinating story, but we're kind of in a hurry.
- "We"? - Cynthia Rutherford.
I've hired Mr.
Reddington to find someone.
One of your employees Dr.
Felix Dresner, if I'm remembering correctly.
He's on a job.
Where?
You know I can't give out that kind of information.
[HUSHED VOICE]
Melissa, while I appreciate your desire to protect the good doctor, he is a liability.
Miss Rutherford isn't the only one looking for him.
The police are, as well.
Help me find him before they do and I'll cauterize the wound so nothing bleeds back to you.
What has he done? The less you know, the better.
We simply need a location.
ARAM: Okay, hold on.
I think I may have just figured this out.
Okay, the street address you gave me was zoned as a zoological research facility, but construction was put on hold due to this ongoing court battle.
However, if I'm reading these permits right, it looks like the only section of the facility that was okayed was the second story.
Agents Ressler and Navabi are en route, maybe 10 minutes out.
[DRILL WHIRRING] Step away from the tables.
Hands.
Everyone, hands where I can see them.
No.
No.
Keep going.
I know you're trying to save your son, but I can't let you hurt these people in order to do it.
I will not let him die.
You're gonna have to let us take him home.
His home is with me. I gave him up once. I will not give him up again.
The hospital, then.
You know the hospital can't help.
I know someone who can.
[WHISPERS] What are you talking about?
Is there a force in the universe more powerful than a mother's love for her child? The miracles of modern medicine pale in comparison.
Can be life-saving.
But not here.
Not now.
The next people who come storming in here will be throwing you all in paddy wagons.
The best chance your son has is if we leave.
Now.
Leave? Dr.
Dresner can stay to care for the others.
No.
Without the doctor or a viable heart, we can't - I know.
- We can't.
I'm asking the impossible for you to trust a complete stranger with the well-being of your son.
But if you stay here, the authorities will take him and he will die.
Please.
Trust me.
Three patients for emergency evac.
- Keen? What's going on? - Where's Nirah? She and her son escaped before I got here.
RESSLER: All right, I want birds in the air, units at every intersection in a two-mile radius I want this woman found.
- I need your services.
- No.
It wasn't a request.
LIZ: We're sorry for pulling you into this.
NIK: No, you're not.
Okay, no.
I'm not.
If it means saving Ethan's life.
You're not sorry you're in this world his world.
The bypass machine is ready patient's prepped.
Soon as we have the donor heart, we can proceed.
The heart is already here.
You know, the day that you were born, I was also born.
[SOBS] It was the day I discovered the true meaning of my life was just to love and protect you forever.
NIK: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What are you doing? You cannot kill this woman to save that boy.
Agreed.
I have no intention of killing her.
Strange I always knew a golden blood would have to die to save his life but I just never imagined it would be me.
Clear.
LIZ: What's the end game?  Nirah sacrifices herself to save her son, and then what? There has to be an ulterior motive otherwise, why bother?
I had no veiled intent in giving you this case, just a sincere desire to stop a criminal I believed to be truly reprehensible.
Now what do you believe?
That a sinner can also be a saint.
Are we still talking about Nirah?
Given the same circumstances, I'd like to think I'd be as brave as her. I know I'd want to be.
- How is he? - He's alive, for now.
His heart's beating on its own.
An ambulance is on its way to take him to a proper hospital.
If he makes it through the night, he has a chance.
Thank God.
I'm in your debt.
Can I collect on it now?
Name your price.
Never call me again either of you.
Nik [CHUCKLES]
you don't mean that.
He's the country's most-wanted criminal.
He's my father.
Which excuses nothing.
An hour ago, Ethan Isaacs was brought back to the hospital.
But you already knew that, didn't you? Yes.
Which means you also know Nirah Ahmad was also brought in for an autopsy to determine who shot her in the head and transplanted her heart into her son's body.
- She shot herself.
- You lied to your partners.
Told them you didn't know where Nirah and her son were, when you not only knew where they were, you conspired with Reddington to arrange an unauthorized operation.
If I hadn't, Ethan would be dead.
And his mother would be alive.
A criminal died to save the life of a child.
I'm okay with that.
Who cares if you're okay with it? You don't get to decide who lives and who dies. Neither does Reddington. This was his idea, wasn't it?
Yes, and I agreed with him.
I know. And that's what concerns me not just now, but going forward his influence over you.
I'm not influenced by him.
Elizabeth, you know how much I care about you.
As much as if you were my own daughter.
But you're not, you're his, and I would be lying if I said that didn't make me concerned.
You have no reason to be concerned.
Maybe. But if today was any indication, I think I do. I'm watching you, Elizabeth.
Listen, man, I've been calling all day.
NIK: Blame your fatherin-law.
He and Liz pulled me into something typically insane.
They what?Don't worry, I didn't mention our little secret.
Well, what about Pete? 'Cause I've called four times, and I got crickets.
He'll call when he has something.
I don't like it.
He's got the bones.
He's got the connection to CODIS.
I mean, I could practically see the dollar signs in his eyes earlier today.
What if he screws us? Look, his place is on my way home.
I'll swing by, see what's going on.
Honestly, I don't know who's crazier you or her or me for helping both of you.
Just call me the minute you hear from him.
- [CELLPHONE BEEPS] - [DOOR OPENS] I am the worst.
I can't believe I missed lunch and dinner.
Don't worry about it.
It seems like you had a tough day.
Yeah.
It was complicated.
Anthony.
Welcome back.
Look, if this is about you wanting a piece of my business
It's not.
Okay, good.
It's about me taking over your business.
Yeah No! No! That's not happening!
Right now, you have 100% of a business that clears maybe $50,000, $100,000 a year.
Maybe.
I'm offering you 10% of a business that will clear 100 times that.
How you gonna do that? The value of your information isn't in what you are able to take out of these houses, it's in who you're able to put in them.
Reliable safe houses are incredibly hard to find and always at a premium.
Instead of robbing these home, I propose we rent them to individuals who don't want to be found.
If you can secure hold lists in every state, we'll have a network of reliable hideouts stretching all across the country.
Can you get the lists? Yeah.
I could do that.
You can get the people? Only the ones willing to pay through the nose.
So, I we are gonna be rich? Obscenely.
In the meantime, what do you have available for tomorrow night?
NIK: Pete?
I'm terrified to admit it. I don't want to admit it. But it's true.
No, it's not. Look, Liz, you're kind, and you're decent and honest. Reddington is not decent. He's dishonest and he's dangerous.
Reddington and I got Nik involved in something he never should've been a part of.
Nik's a big boy. He can take care of himself.
I know he can, but ultimately, it's my responsibility.
Nik would've never been involved with Reddington if it weren't for me.
And he's been a good friend to us and I just feel like we're never gonna see him again.
[GASPS] And I don't blame him.
He'll come around.
He will.
Just give him some time.
It'll be fine.

It sounds hard to narrow down considering all the possibilities but Im new to this whole world of cars and insurance. My parents wont help me out at all. In fact, Ive been saving up for when this moment would come. I saved up $606. Plus, Im going to apply for a part time job at my college that will pay $10 an hour. I should be making about $120 a week which would be like $480 if I dont spend my money on stupid stuff which I wont. So basically, $480 is my budget. Well it might be a bit less. I have to eat too so I guess I could live off of 80 dollars of food. So that would be leave me with 400. As you can see, im really struggling to try and work out a plan. If you could give me some opinions that would be great. Thanks for reading what I have to say :) -Nick""

I'm curious. I have recently moved and I couldn't believe the difference in price for car insurance. I two thousand miles east and now pay just over a thousand a year as opposed to four and a half thousand where I used to live.

Maternity related services considered inpatient for insurance?
Most individual plans (87%) do not offer maternity coverage. I was fortunate enough to still be covered under an old employer by paying COBRA, and a majority of my expenses were covered. I had twins and had to have a C-Section. So now that I know I'm most likely to have a C-Section again, and who knows, another set of twins! (complete surprise) and am still of child bearing age. I am now under an individual plan, that does not offer maternity coverage. I was reading under the 'Inpatient' services and it listed this: Unlimited coverage is provided for medically necessary physician and surgeon services, semi-private rooms, operating rooms and related facilities, intensive and coronary care units, laboratory, x-rays, radiology services and procedures, medications and biologicals, anesthesia, special duty nursing as prescribed, short-term rehabilitation services, nursing care, meals and special diets So anyone who has experience or knowledge, would something like a C-Section be covered under inpatient? What does maternity coverage only cover normally. That $60*** bill scares me! Also, I keep reading about a new health care bill effective 2014 where individual plans must include maternity as an essential benefit. Anyone have any more details about that? State specific etc?""

Car insurance help..?
I just asked this question but i'll add more details--------------------- About me - I pass my test 06/03/12 And bought a car and insurance - 10/03/12 ( the car was a vauxhall corsa) I still have the vauxhall and it's insured untull the 10th of March. I'm buying a suzuki swift today and want to insure it but It's cheaper if i have 1 year No claims bonus (NCB). To get my NCB i have to wait until the 10th and i dont mind that what's bothering me is I want to sell my Corsa before or after the 10th or whatever to a garage so not private sale and still have my NCB. Is there something a garage can do where i take it to them on the day my insurance ends and they keep it until it ends? I haven't insured the suzuki AT ALL yet and i'm relying on my NCB as it takes a huge chunk out of the money. thanks.

How will this 15-20 mph speeding ticket affect my insurance?
I just turned 18 and I am a senior in high school. I live in a small area that is just between two towns. This area is known for its police; they have a tendency to give speeding tickets out like crazy. They hide in places so that they can catch people speeding; the area is generally a 30mph zone. I had a good morning and got a little foot-happy...I sped right up to a cop that hides next to my neighborhood. Needless to say, I was going 50 mph in a 30 mph zone. Without a seat belt. I was extremely honest, so I got a speeding ticket but the seat belt issue was simply a warning. This is my first ticket ever; the only other time I had been pulled over was because I forgot to turn on my headlights...I was 16 at the time. I have State Farm Insurance and have an extremely decent rate for my age. I have no issues paying the speeding ticket because I did speed...I just don't want my insurance to be crushed. I went through driver's education, State Farm's Steer Clear Program, and I have maintained my grades to ensure that I get a decent rate. What will this ticket do to my rate? And what is the best I can make out of this situation?""
Home insurance wants to raise dwelling coverege?
I purchased a townhome in March of 2013 for $183k in Florida. It is in a 200-unit subdivision that just completed all construction and sold out all last remaining units a few months ago. When I signed up for home insurance, the insurance company set my dwelling coverage to $183k. I told them that it isn't accurate for them to base dwelling coverage on market price because the replacement cost must be lower since market price includes land and profits the builder makes. Long story short, they convinced me to stay at $183 because they said costs were rising and so forth. I decided not to fight it. Fast forward to this year, and now they are proposing to increase the dwelling coverage to $203k (11% increase). Funny thing is that for my exact townhome model, about 20 units were sold in the last year with prices averaging in the upper $180s (slightly above what I paid). I called the insurance company to let them have a piece of my mind, and they told me they use an independent 3rd party company to price the replacement costs. I told them it's BS because it's way above average market price and replacement costs is always below market price. They asked me to send them documents from when I purchased the home that details the construction materials used and upgrades so that they can reevaluate the dwelling coverage. My question is, why is the burden of proof on me to prove to the insurance company that dwelling coverage should be lowered? Why can't they just reduce it to what I tell them to reduce it to? After all, I am the customer who pays for the insurance. If my house is ever destroyed and I underinsured, that's my problem not theirs. I just find it strange that I'm paying for an insurance service and the insurance company decides what the replacement cost is, not me. Even though it doesn't affect them.""

Is it a legal requirement to carry your car insurance documentation at all times?
Okay, this is the second time i've asked a question in the last two days but this forum is really interesting and gets me thinking. While I was at University, I was driving innocently along when I realized I didn't have my lights on. At that PRECISE MOMENT, I saw blue flashing lights behind me and the police pulled me over. He asked ''Do you know why I pulled you over?'' and I said 'Yes sorry! I didn't have my lights on''. He then proceeded to put me in the back of his police car and ask me questions such as name, address, telephone number, mobile telephone number, height, weight etc.. which I believed to be innocent questions.. but then the questions kept going down a quite frankly rediculous route and he asked me ''hair colour, eye colour, what are you wearing?, where are you going? why are you going there? etc etc and I started to wonder if he was taking the mick. Then after all that he asked for my car insurance documentation and driving lisence and I said I didn't have any on me except my lisence. He looked at my lisence, wrote down some information and gave it back to me. He then said ''do you realize it is an offence not to carry your car insurance documents with you when asked to produce them at the roadside?''. Again I apologized and said that I had no idea that this was the case. He then gave me five days to produce my photo and counterpart driving lisence and car insurance documents at the local police station or I would be arrested for failing to produce documents on demand. He then asked me to provide a testimony which would be read in court if I didn't produce the documents and so I said ''I'm terribly sorry for any inconvenience''. He then let me out. Suffice to say, the next day I took my documents to the police station for inspection. Is this standard proceedure?""

CBD OIL CANCER TREATMENT

CBD OIL CANCER TREATMENT
CBD OIL CANCER TREATMENT
Optimism Growing Around CBD
CBD OIL is just one of over 100 cannabinoidschemical or chemical compounds, found in the cannabis plant. CBD oil  is easily the 2nd most popular and widely discussed cannabinoid after THC, the cannabinoid famous for its carcinogenic properties accountable for sense high. CBD’s popularity has exploded in the last few years since the medicinal properties of the non-psychoactive chemical have come to light through testimonials and research. Medical marijuana is now legal in 29 states and Washington D.C. with more nations legalizing access to cannabis each year. Celebrities, athletes, and seriously sick children are speaking up and requiring access to cannabis medication, catching the interest of the media and the people more intently.
It is not tough to find somebody that has been affected by cancer. According to the National Cancer Institute at 2016, an estimated 1,685,210 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the USA and 595,690 individuals will die from the illness. Additionally, the amount of individuals residing beyond a cancer diagnosis reached almost 14.5 million in 2014 and is anticipated to grow to nearly 19 million by 2024. Recently approved cancer drugs cost an average of $10,000 a month, with a few remedies topping $30,000 a month. This does not include the expense of chemotherapy, supplier fees, or lost earnings. These staggering statistics offer a gloomy prognosis for cancer sufferers. Imagine if there was a much better approach to assist individuals? Can CBD supply some advantages? Let us look deeper.
The contemporary legalization movement began gaining momentum in the 70s and 80s when cancer sufferers started reporting relief from chemotherapy and AIDS patients started reporting relief from wasting syndrome after consuming cannabis.
Fast forward to now and there have been a number of anecdotal reports of CBD treating the unwanted effects of cancer from patients of all ages.
MMA fighter Joe Schilling explains (paraphrased) the way cannabis oil murdered cancer in his dad,”I managed to see my father in the hospital. My daddy’s prediction was that he was likely to die shortly from the cancer. He consented to Cannabis Oil treatment, together with CBD but not THC. There was cancer in his lung, cancer within his mind, cancer in his torso, a huge tumor was on his throat. We gave CBD oil for something like 7 weeks. He chose against chemo, he didn’t wish to do it” Schilling notes his daddy’s bad diet choices and refusal to carry vitamins and conditions,”the physicians did their evaluations and charts, you understand what they perform, and surprisingly, 90 percent of the cancer was gone. I don’t have any doubt what so ever that it had been the CBD oil which killed the cancer since he had been doing completely nothing else properly. The 10 percent of the cancer which was still living was surrounded by dead cells also was likely to expire too.”
44-year-old mum of 2, Dee Mani, has been diagnosed using triple negative breast cancer, the worst kind. Dee’s sister had died undergoing chemotherapy, the treatment her physician’s recommended, therefore Dee searched another decision — cannabis oil. Dee says she’d a single drop of oil each evening before bed and five weeks after her launching cannabis oil, Dee was rid of her first diagnosis. Dee asserts the petroleum helped her with different ailments like insomnia and back pain and strategies to choose oil for the remainder of her life.
So what’s the science behind those stories? There have been restricted scientific research done on people in the USA because of this program one classification of cannabis. However, an emerging system of research have proven the possibility of cannabis and CBD’s antitumor effects and study from countries evidenced by authorities limitations, such as Israel, is creating waves in the medical marijuana community.
Cristina Sanchez, a molecular biologist in Complutense University in Madrid, Spain, clarifies to CannaInsider,”cells, but not just cancer cells, but each cell in our body is able to die in various ways. An individual may be like an crash, a car crash, a traumatic death that’s called necrosis. And there’s one other means to die that is a fresh departure and by clean I mean no inflammation of the surrounding cells. And also this cancer cell death is known as Apoptosis. When somebody’s coping with harmful compounds, one needs this specific sort of death to occur because another one is connected to inflammatory processes and things like this you do not need in a patient”
CBD and cannabis are analyzed in other particular cancers. A 2013 study published in the journal Chemotherapy analyzed the effects of synthetic THC against gastric cancer grafts in rodents. Rodents treated together with the THC found a 30 percent decrease in tumor development within 14 days of therapy compared to control. A 2012 Journal of Molecular Medicine research found tumors in mice using laboratory-induced colon cancer recurrence with CBD therapy. A 2013 study published in Molecular Cancer Research discovered that CBD activates cell death in certain lung cancer cell lines, diminishing tumor viability.
Remedies for Cancer
Sanchez explains further,”chemotherapy strikes each and every cell in our body that’s experiencing regeneration. Every cell that’s dividing will be assaulted by chemotherapy. And that cells are dividing within our body? First cancer cells needless to say, those are the ones that you wish to kill, but also the cells of your immune system, the tissues of your gut and a great deal of cells. So that is why chemotherapy is indeed toxic since it is not just attacking cancer cells but other tissues which are proliferating within our own bodies. And the distinction with cannabinoids is these compounds only assaulted cells. We do not know why however in molecular terms. We do not understand what constitutes a cancer cell distinct concerning the sensitivity to cannabinoids, but we understand this is a fact. Cannabinoids kills cancer cells and they don’t influence the viability of non-cancer cells”
Cannabinoids are plentiful from the cannabis plant but can also be commercially available in synthetic drugs approved by the FDA. Dronabinol, a synthetic version of THC, is used in the treatment of nausea and vomiting brought on by chemotherapy and can be prescribed when other medications have failed to get the job done. Nabilone is a synthetic variant of CBD also utilized as a treatment for nausea and vomiting brought on by chemotherapy.
Among the more visible instances of utilizing CBD to deal with cancer has been performed by Tommy Chong. Famous for his comedy albums, Cheech and Chong, Tommy is a outspoken cannabis activist and consumer. In 2012, Chong was diagnosed with prostate cancer and utilized CBD oil and a natural diet to deal with his illness, opting from aggressive and expensive medical processes. Chong was quoted stating he had been,”cancer-free because of some disciplined diet… along with using hemp (hash) oil”
There’s a whole lot to be optimistic for since legalization marches ahead and as cannabis becomes widely accepted because of its medicinal purposes. Regrettably, together with cannabis and CBD still recorded as program one substances, study is limited and several caregivers nevertheless stay in dread to go over or endorse medical cannabis for some thing such as cancer. As of March 2015, over 15,000 patients at the state of Colorado reported acute nausea or cancer because of their reporting requirement due to their healthcare card. Organizations such as Project CBD, Realm of Caring, and CannaKids provide funds and join families that seek cannabinoid treatment due to their illnesses. In accordance with some 2016 quote by procon.org, there are more than 2.5 million medical marijuana users from the USA. This number grows annually as more countries legalize access to medical cannabis and it is becoming more challenging for the mainstream medical community to dismiss this growing number of individuals.
In the end, at a 2016 evaluation conducted by oncologist Dr. Donald Abrams analyzing cannabis’ function in cancer care, the authors say,”preclinical data indicate that cannabinoids may have direct antitumor action, possibly most remarkable in central nervous system malignancies. Clinical information regarding the effects of cannabis centers on cancer are as yet unavailable. Oncologists could detect cannabis and cannabinoids to become effective tools in their care of individuals living with and beyond cancer”. The analysis also notes that 82% of oncologists think their cancer sufferers ought to have legal access to cannabis, based on your 2014 WebMD poll.

Tagging game :)
Thank you, dear @abybweisse for having tagged me too! <3 1. How has your opinion of yourself changed over the years? Unfortunately yes. I say “unfortunately” because when I was younger I used to be emotionally stronger, but the presence of certain people in my life made me become less confident (especially when it comes to people whom I love deeply, because I am more vulnerable to their opinions and attacks and I started suffering of panic attacks because of this). 2. If you had to pick one book to read for the rest of your life, which book would you pick? Kushiel’s Legacy (both Phèdre and Imriel’s saga) series. Those books are an endless source of inspiration. 3. What’s your favorite season? Do you have a particular reason for liking it? I’d say summer because of the light (I feel better when there is light all around). But here summer is like Hell because it’s hot af, so we are in July and I can breath flames… XD 4. What’s your favorite thing to do when you want to relax? Daydream about stories. Preferably mine… XD The ones I should write, the ones I wrote but I still have something to say. 5. Do you consider yourself lazy? I was born under the sign of Cancer. So yes, I am basically a lazy person, but when I find something interesting, I am not lazy anymore. 6. What’s your view on morality? I feel that many things do not go as they were meant to go, because we live in a very unfair world. To be honest, I believe that it is very important to listen to people’s reasons, but this is not so easy, because we are often too focussed on our beliefs. So it depends. 7. When are you most productive? When I am under pressure. Exams helped me a lot in this (instead of studying XD). Luckily I am about to finish! 8. Do you have any strong opinions about things most people don’t think much about? Love. About love. I strongly believe that love (in a romantic way) exists only in fiction, and I am totally unable to feel it for another person (my ex is the proof XD). Anyway I believe that the sole, endless love is the one between a mother and her child! ;_;<3 9. How do you handle stress? Mh… listen to some kind of music, mostly. 10. What would your ideal world be like? An ideal world would be like the one everyone has in his mind. Anyway, a world that allows children to be themselves and helps them to bloom would be a very good world. Extra Questions: 1.) What’s one story that you want to write/create but won’t (or haven’t yet)? Uuuuuuh… well: I started to write a story about a young student of Psychology in Boston, Kate, who is the only eyewitness of a little girl’s murder few days before Christmas. After that moment, few years later, she joins detective Alexander Graham’s Division as the departmental psychologist in order to find “the Magician”, the mysterious murderer of the little girl, when she finds out that he was also the killer of Alexander’s little daughter, Lily. Also, Kate discovers that her superior is not exactly a good person (actually not that he does too much for hiding his dark temper XD), but when he was a college student, he was the leader of a secret élite, the Dark Circus (just like other members of their team... I picture him like Vincent Phantomhive, Kougami Shinya and our beautiful Italian Leo Cagliostro) and the past involving both is more entwined that they could even suspect. Well, this is my “Dark Circus”, a story I really would love to write (I wrote some chapters but nothing more) and I have lots of ideas and the finale too, but lack of inspiration and university are not a good thing for a novelist… -__-“ Ah, I also wanted to write some one-shots for my *happily finished* fantasy “Underworld – La Croix du Lac” but same thing as DC.  2.) What’s an interesting moment of self-discovery in your life? My first job assignation (as a secondary school professor) and my teacher-training in Primary Education: I found out that I am really good as a teacher! 3.) Dream job? Cat-sitting! *_______________* And being mom! <3 Unfortunately, since I can’t find the raw material, I believe it won’t be easy for me to become a mother, one day… ;_; 4.) What’s a book/movie/show that has had a large influence on you? I do not know, actually… I can say that Kushiel’s Legacy has a large influence on my writing style, perhaps. But also, it depends on moments. 5.) Has music ever changed your life, or at least your outlook on life? I will never stop thanking and blessing Marconi Union for their Weightless! 6.) Imagine you’ve become an established author/artist/creator. What would you want the fandom for your works to be like? “Discussing written works and theorizing about it/analyzing it, maybe creating fanfics that would work within canon. Creating fan art that is true to canon. Commissioning artwork or crafts from me”. @abybweisse I made copy/paste here because this is my exact opinion too! 7.) Same scenario as #6. What would the fandom actually be like? I experienced this on EFP with my “Underworld”. I noticed that my “fandom” was really curious and prone to theorize things (I still giggling at them thinking that Aurore’s father was an angel or something similar, Shemar being Sebastian’s relative, Liger being Evan… ok, this one was right! XD Aaaaah and I loved when they showed lots of empathy toward Celia and her backstory ç_ç). 8.) What’s a subject that you think should be taught in schools but typically isn’t taught at all? Guys, we are talking about Italian school here. As a teacher, I can say that in Italy there is a general lack of attention towards social studies. We try to study some arguments by transversal subjects, but in the end, what do we know about others, really? 9.) What’s a subject that you think should be taught differently in schools from how it usually is? Math (but also several subjects, especially in the secondary school). But the way Math is taught is terrible. No wonder that Italian students are among the worst in Europe. 10.) Are there any patterns in your interests/works that wouldn’t be immediately obvious to an outside observer? I love complex things. Perhaps this is because I am a very complicated person myself. But I believe that nothing is like it appears, that is why in my works I always hide things, details, hints that one day will help things to be clear (like many authors do, after all). When I wrote Underworld, I made several references to the fact that Liger, the main “enemy” of the story, was in fact Evan, Aurore’s adopted brother, like him playing with a Rubik cube, symbolizing his “triple identity”: Evan Kensington/Liger/Evandrus Delacroix or Aurore recalling that Evan’s favorite animals were the tiger and the lion and him claiming that it existed a hybrid called “liger”) but I noticed that my readers were too much in Aurore’s shoes that they could not noticed them at all (technically this is not a bad thing, since the surprise was shocking for Aurore and for them too XD). Only one reader suspected that Evan was Liger and the last living Delacroix (he made a fun parallel with Batman/Bruce Wayne’s story) after reading Celia’s backstory aaaaand… I know that I am going off at a tangent… XD Well, tagging time... whoever wants to do it! :) Fee free to do it!! :) I choose to not tag because I noticed that sometimes people are not interested, so I don’t want to bother... >_<
