As you can see, many old dudes. Many old dudes becoming monsters. Many sad old dudes and many monsters both metaphorically and literally.

[rosemaryreaper]

A collection of brief contextless snippets of Ros being…well, Ros.

Featuring Nick, Ellie, Nora, Haylen, and others.

* * * *

1.

Climbing down took less than half the time it took to climb up. Near the bottom, she simply dropped the last ten feet, boots hitting the wood roof with a solid thud. Abernathy stood waiting for her with a grin. Connie had already left.

He clapped her on the back. “Quick work. Where’d you learn to climb like that?”

“Through an unexpected blessing following the most traumatically horrific experience of her life” would have been the correct answer, but Ros wasn’t about to go into detail about that. So, she simply said, “A stripper taught me.”

Abernathy raised his eyebrows. “Huh. Well, you’ll have to thank that stripper for me.”

Ros was fairly certain she was dead, but she mentally passed on the message anyway.

* * * *

2.

“You’ve put me in your debt,” Ros said, as Connie secured the straps on the impressively full pack.

“Oh, quit your whining already,” Connie said. “I couldn’t care less if you never show your face around here again. Don’t have the caps to hire a merc.”

Ros eyed her warily, unsure if this was genuine evidence of a sense of humor and not a straight up threat. Connie didn’t clarify, which didn’t help matters at all.

* * * *

They could see well enough to point a gun at her, at least. She allowed herself to assume that the white diamond over their heart meant that they were, in fact, a guard and not a member of a gang, because if she had to fight the last hundred feet to the city, she would lay down in the street and let them shoot her.

Tiredly, she told the strangely-armored person, “Not a mutant.”

To her surprise, they lowered their rifle without hesitation. “Always good to hear,” they said cheerfully.

* * * *

4.

“Noted.” He set the clipboard down, giving her a tired smile. “Your weapons are your business, but discharge them and Security will do the same. Chems are legal, but public use isn’t. Any disorderly conduct will earn you a night in lockup if no one shoots you for it first. If you need a place to stay, look for the Dugout Inn on First Street. Yefim Bobrov can set you up with a room. Any questions?”

“Yeah, uh,”—her grip tightened on the edge of the counter—“is there a doctor here, by any chance?”

Danny’s shoulders tensed. “There is,” he said warily. “If you’re sick, there is a quarantine procedure—”

“Not sick. Shot.”

Jamie said, “What?”

She removed the fedora from her stomach, uncovering the blood-stained holes in her new shirt.

Danny was on his feet, eyes wide. “Why didn’t you say anything?” He looked at Jamie. “Why didn’t you say anything?”

“Hell, I didn’t know,” Jamie said.

“I took two Stimpaks,” Ros said. “I’m not about to die.” She paused to double check her Pip-Boy. Three new warnings had popped up since she’d last looked. She dismissed them. “Yeah, no, not right this very second.”

“Are you sure that’s not shock?” Jamie asked. “Are you in shock?”

“I don’t actually know,” Ros said truthfully.

“Jamie,” Danny said.

“Yeah. Yeah, I’ll show them to the doc.” Jamie looked at Ros in concerned disbelief. “Can you walk?”

“I walked here, didn’t I?” Ros said, which wasn’t actually an answer.

“You did. Good Lord. Just…just follow me.”

* * * *

5.

Abruptly, Ellie let herself fall over into Ros’s arms, her head tucked beneath Ros’s chin. Ros held her awkwardly, startled by this more than the tears, at least for a second. It had to be more comfortable than being doubled over her knees.

“Okay, this is fine,” Ros said, because it was.

“Sorry, honey,” Ellie said into her shirt. “I kinda ruined your morning, huh?”

Ros said, “I want you to feel better,” because she did. She did, she did.

“Ugh, you and me both.”

* * * *

6.

“We’re open. You don’t—” Nick broke off. His fingers scratched against the door, metal against wood. A godawful sound, really.

“Sorry to bother you, Mr. Valentine,” Danny said, “but I assume this belongs to you?”

Ros attempted a grin. She presumed it looked deranged, her hands being cuffed behind her back and all.

Nick gave her a flat stare. “Tell me why I should say yes.”

“Uh, I didn’t kill anyone?” she offered.

* * * *

7.

“Ros.” Nora tilted her chin up, rag raised in her other hand. “You have blood on your face.”

Ros grimaced as the General aggressively scrubbed her cheek. “It’s not mine.”

* * * *

8.

“Hi,” Ros said with a tired smile. “This mattress is disgusting.”

“Obviously. It’s two hundred years old.” Haylen set the first aid kit on the chair. “Do you always talk this much?”

“Not to people. I talk to walls. And my horse. Normally they don’t talk back, though, so this is a first.”

“Right…you weren’t kidding about taking a hit to the head.”

[vessels-for-good-intent]

okay! i have an announcement!

i don’t know how many of you in the tgg fandom outside of the gatsbin know this film exists, but there was a version made in 1949, starring alan ladd (jay), macdonald carey (nick), barry sullivan (tom), betty field (daisy), and ruth hussey (jordan)

it’s certainly interesting, and not super accurate to the book (dialogue tags scott, dialogue tags, PLEASE DEAR GOD scott you’re confusing people). this movie went through a lot of screening because of the hayes code, and a lot of stuff was taken out. it was also made more of a gangster/film noir type film—alan ladd, had, to that point, made mostly film noirs, and was starting to get into westerns, so that doesn’t help with accuracy.

BUT.

i can’t find a copy of any sort of script for it online. my goal, over christmas break, is to create a script of at least the dialogue, the setting and maybe some of the mood the music gives. perhaps some important actions if there’s no dialogue ( ex. jay punching a guy, the first flashback giving historical context etc)

so! my christmas break is the 23rd to the 8th, and my hope is that i can have this out before i go back to school. i’m not sure where i’m going to put it, but it will be posted on this account, and perhaps ao3 if i can figure out how to post a script sort of thing there.

New Outlast 2 fanfic! 🤗 I've been planning it for 5 long years at this point, but finally I managed to publish the prologue (maybe a bit too long, but still... 😅) and that makes me so proud 💪 I'm already writing the first chapter and I can't wait to show it to you ❤️ The story will be extremely long, as it's a sort of horror soap opera and concerns the countless events that took place in Temple Gate before Blake and Lynn's arrival according to both canonical sources and my headcanons, but in any case I hope you'll appreciate it 😁

Chocolate Overload [Closed]

@lcstinfantasy [Continued]

"I'm going to have movie snacks for at least a couple of weeks, and if anyone knows me, I do love my movie snacks," Raven said as she looked at the pile of chocolate before her. "That was really sweet, Nick, thank you," Raven said as she leaned over and kissed Nick on the cheek. "I got you something as well. It's marketed toward kids, but since we're actual witches, it definitely does you a lot of good," Raven said as she pulled out this old-fashioned miniature treasure chest and popped it open to reveal little beakers, jars, a few crystals, and the likes. Everything a witch could need. "Happy Valentine's Day!"

How They Met...Kinda

A/N: Drunk!Lucky is the best and we love her

Tagging my Valentines: @dragon-kazansky @mrsjaderogers @gracespicybradshaw @cycbaby @callmemana @breadsquash @kloofspeaks @notyoursbutlewis @milesdickpic @callsignthirsty @likelyrowdy @askmarinaandothers @starlit-epiphany

-----

Every holiday was a reason for the Chaos Squad to party. Even Valentine's Day. Which is why on Feburary 13th, the Hard Deck was closed to the public, and it was just them.

Fanboy watched as Lucky knocked back quite a bit of alcohol. She had just had another appointment with her OBGYN, but still no good news. He knew she was trying to forget, but he had Spicy bring her waters with every other drink.

"Is she going to be okay?" Whiskey asked.

"She's going to hate herself in the morning."

The night was going well when the topic of Valentines came up for real, everyone discussing their plans. That's when Lucky gets the idea in her hazy mind. Nobody suspects a thing as she gets up from the table. They all figure she's going to pee for the 100th time.

Instead, two seconds later, she is standing on the bartop.

"Lucky, please get down from the bar." Ice said.

"No, I have an idea."

"Oh, this is going to be great." Jake muttered.

"Have you guys ever thought about how amazing it is that we've all met our better halfs?"

"Lucky, honey, please get down from the bar." Ice pleads again.

"Like you! You met Dragon, and you two are amazing together."

Dragon laughs, "thank you sweet girl."

"And I'm sure your first meeting was adorable. In fact, I can picture it now." Lucky gets off the bar, super gracefully by the way, "I can see Ice looking so cool, leaning up against the wall." She leans aganist the bar and puts her aviators on before lowering her voice, "I'm Mr. Ice Cold, No Mistakes."

Ice had been holding in a laugh, but he let it out because, unfortunately, she wasn't wrong.

"Then I can just imagine this gorgeous woman, Dragon, obviously walks by and Mr. Ice over here just melts." She puts her hand over her heart. "That's the girl for me."

"That's pretty accurate to how it happened actually." Slider interjects.

"Thanks, Uncle Sli, and I'm sure it was similar for you and Whiskey. You are just standing there like a Greek God when she rolls up." Lucky says, getting a laugh out of the couple.

"Oh Mickey, come up here and help me."

He groaned but got up anyway, not knowing what to expect.

"Okay, so pretend Mickey is Slider, I know he's too short, but bear with me."

"Wow, so sweet of you."

"Shut up and be a himbo.".

Mickey just stood there, and Baylie huffed but got back into character as Whiskey.

"Heyyyy Slider."

"Hi Jade." Mickey playing along.

"You know you're like really cute." Lucky says twirling her hair. "and I'm like super into cute men with no brains."

Mickey breaks character to laugh at the way she's trying so hard, and he's not the only one.

"Hey, I have some brains!" Slider says, feigning hurt.

"Shut up, Ron. I'm enjoying the show." Whiskey said, patting his thigh.

"I'm just saying you guys met at Top Gun, and that's so cute!" Lucky says. "I'm sure you two big men saw two gorgeous women who were mean to you and fell in love."

She turned to Goose and Scarlet, who were both laughing so hard that they had turned matching shades of...scarlet...

"Then you two!"

"Oh no." Scarlet hid her face in her hands.

"I can picture it, Goose at the piano playing some old ass song." She paused, and the group watched as an idea washed over her leading to a devilish grin. "Kind of like this." She says as she walks over to the piano.

"Does she know how to play the piano?" Spicy asked.

Mickey shakes his head.

"Someone should be recording this." Jake says, "this is the best thing ever."

Lucky hits a few random keys, making everyone wince. "You shake my nerves, and rattle my brains." She sings, her voice not bad but definitely off beat.

"So he's sitting there playing this stupid song, and this gorgeous redhead walks in and sees this tall drink of water sitting on the bench."

"Ew." Rooster whispers.

"Grow up Rooster, anyways knowing Goose he probably tells her to take a seat in his lap and despite not knowing him she takes the invitation. He serenades her with old songs all night long, and from that night forward they were in love."

Scarlet wipes an actual tear from her eye.

"Then a few years later, they had a son and named him Bradley even though Dumbass was more appropriate."

"Hey!"

"She's not wrong." Spicy playfully elbows Rooster in the ribs.

"And that dumbass found his perfect person much in the same way as his parents. In this very bar. Penny hired this gorgeous woman and she was behind the bar." For added effect Lucky jumped over the bar, Ice damn near chokes on his drink with worry.

"So imagine Spicy behind the bar, learning from the amazing queen herself, Penny. And this tall, porn stached, idiot walks in with that walk. Y'all know that walk. She looks up, completely ignoring her new bff trying to get a refill on her jack and coke." Lucky pouts. "And in that moment, I lost my wife to the biggest dumbass I know besides Jake."

"Bay, it wasn't that dramatic."

"We could have been so good together Spicy but nooooooo."

"Cariño, we'd already been together for years."

"This isn't about you Mickey."

Mickey just nods, knowing better than to argue with his wife.

"And then, then my other wife finds us and drops us for Jake. Like come on Spicy and I are both much hotter than Jake Seresin."

Cin snorted, "yes honey."

"Um excuse you?" Jake asked.

"Shut up Jake, and let me finish." Lucky said and despite wanting to fight Jake obeys. "so anyways, Jake takes one look at my gorgeous bestie and decides to stop being a man whore and nail Cin down. And somehow she looked at his big head and said yes."

"I don't have a big head." Jake pouted.

Lucky looks around, "I guess that's it really. We know how Maverick and Penny got together after like a billion years. And I still don't know how Cyclone got a hot ass bitch like Venom."

The group laughs as Fanboy helps Lucky back to her seat.

"You're forgetting someone Lucky." Whiskey points out.

Lucky looks around confused, "no I didnt."

"Honey, you forgot you and Mickey." Spicy points out.

"Oh we fucked in the closet of the cottage before it was mine." Lucky blurts out and most of the group laugh at her bluntness. Rooster and Ice look less than thrilled to know this information.

"Cariño that's not how we met." Fanboy points out.

Lucky looked him right in the eyes, "no but its when I realized I was totally, completely in love with you and I stopped fighting it."

Mickey smiles at her like they are the only two in the room.

"I'm going to vomit." Rooster says matter-of-factly before getting up from the table and heading to the kitchen, followed by his father and Jake.

Penny, Cin, and Spicy start clearing the tables. Usually Lucky would help, but after her big show she was laying her head on Fanboy's shoulder. She tries to reach for his Bud Light but he pushes it away.

"Mickeyyyy." She pouts.

"Oh, you're cut off, big time child." Ice says taking the bottle away from both of them.

"That's so mean."

"You'll get over it."

"Okie dokie."

Mickey shakes his head, but picks up his wife bridal style.

"Let's get you home Bay."

"I love you Garcia."

"I love you more."

108/120

4/5

I bought this blind because of Nick Cutter and I think I found something out. Haunted Houses might not be for me. While I enjoyed this and it seemed to be heavily inspired by his short story in Dark Cities, I found it slow. I kept finding myself just wanting to do something else. It was definitely one that took me like a week to read when it was short enough for like a half day one sitting type deal.

This is four stars because, the writing and the plot and characters were good. This was a very well executed book. These two authors blended well, and worked seamlessly. It had moments that were unexpected and unsettling, it was a very nice horror novel.

I’m glad I have it, and I will keep a hold on it for it to sit with my other Nick Cutter books.
