Code Breaker
HERE WE FUCKING GOOOOOOOO I’m gonna watch the extended version bc I have the dvd >:)
Scott :( 💔
Chris’s reaction hurts. I still think the plot and both Scott and Chris’s character themes would have been realized better if Chris actually liked Scott throughout s1 and wasn���t such a fucking menace
“Just kill me I don’t care anymore” I’m fine.
GOD THE WAY ALLISON’S FALL WAS SHOT IS SO BEAUTIFUL
SCOOOOTTT NOOOOOOOO Q__Q iM SO FUCJING SAD UGHHHHHH.........
Nice compartmentalizing, Stiles
Lmao his trans ass getting The Most offended at Peter’s period joke
CHRIS THROWING THE LAMP IS SO ICONIC I LOVR HIM
I adore how much Chris loves Allison
Nice pride and prejudice hand flex
God Alison’s mom is so fucking scary
Stiles’s agency being taken away motif that is all. It happens so often
Scottttt :’(((( I love you so much ughhhh I want to hug him so bad it’s gonna be okay I promise.....
God the face slamming scene. He just wants to protect Scott......
Stilinski’s motivations in this scene were so weird?? I guess they just wanted to build tension lmao but it made no sense really
Ohhhhhh the extended version of Peter convincing Stiles to help him :((( pain. Peter is like “you’ll help me because it’ll save Scott” and Stiles whips his head towards him and asks “what do you mean?” and his voice is so shaky he loves Scott so much :’((((((
Ok but the Allison username and password joke is funny. I love Scott
The fakest rock in the world
GO SCOTT GOOOOOOOO
Hi Derek :)
Awooooooooo
NOOOO STOP RUNNING ON ALL FOURS I HATE JT
SHDJSKFKDK ITS LOADING the extended version is fun
God...... the hospital scene. It kinda fucks not gonna lie
Peter going “I like you Stiles” and Stiles being like oh my fucking god I hate it here
Jokes on you Peter Stiles loves being by Scott’s side bc who fucking wouldn’t and also he loves him
Stiles always protecting Scott first and foremost, even over Lydia. Ugh. Yeah.
Oh my fucking god I wish they kept the “Peter convinces Stiles” scene I talked about earlier in the actual episode bc Peter says something along the lines of “if the Argents catch him, and they will, they’ll kill him without question” and when Stiles realizes Scott isn’t safe in the hospital it hits him like a ton of bricks and you can see it on his face. Girl help.
NOW ITS SCOTTS TURN TO STAND OMINOUSLY IN THE SHADOWS!!!!!!! RIGHTS!!!!
People keep man handling Stiles. No agency motif
STILES DO YOU GO TO SCHOOL SJDNDKFKFKKD
God that hair ruffle transed my gender in 2014
“You’re not in love Scott you’re 16 years old” Derek is 100% talking about himself and he’s trying to protect Scott from doing what he did
THIS SCENE IS SO FUNNY STILES LYING IMMEDIATELY AND JACKSON CANT LIE FOR SHIT
Derek :( I’m so sorry
No agency motif part 3
God.... Chris’s best friend backstory :(
The VENOM in the way Stiles is like “would you prefer I lock him in a basement and burn the whole house down around him?” Yes.
Aww Scott and Derek leaving the tunnel together. They look kinda like brothers :’)
Scott I adore you so much, he’s so funny in this scene. His exasperated “thank you” whisper sndndkkfkd
God Scott cant believe Allison is doing this I’m in pain
DEREK DRAGGING SCOTT AWAY ;__;
OH FUCK THEY KILLED DEREK OH GOD OH FUCK
OKAY. THE LINE “I did what I was told to do” IN THE MOST VULNERABLE VOICE IVE EVER HEARD COME OUT OF KATE IS SO INTERESTING. GERARD FUCKED UP HER HEAD SO BAD.
Chris I love you
Peter’s just running around and bumping into people lmao
“COME ONNNN”
Oghhhh Allison still cares about Kate so much bb noooo
Bye Kate ✌️
HI SCOTT!!!
HI DEREK!!!!
Oh my god Peter’s fucked up dog face lmao
Stiles drive on the fucking path you idiot
YESSSS PRACTICAL EFECTS PETER
Poetic cinema of him getting burned alive again. Fucked up
Allison you are way too calm
Incredibly this kiss is the most dramatic scene in the episode lmao
OKAY BUT THE CG OF SCOTT DETRANSFORMING IS SO GOOD ACTUALLY
“Why’d you do that” ohhh scottttt :’( I lov u
Okay but Peter did kill Derek’s fucking older sister in cold blood soooooo Derek gets murder rights
Bye penis hale
I’m the alpha now ❤️
YESSS THE DOOR GAG!!!!!!!!!I LOVE THESE TWO SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!
Stiles you are a fucking idiot I don’t care if the fandom thinks you’re the smartest bitch ever they’re wrong
Ohhh my god in the extended version when they’re over Lydia and they’re gonna check the bite stiles is like “do it” and Scott goes “you do it” and hes like “I cant I’m way too worried” ;__; I love this particular trio a lot, the way Scott and Stiles care about Lydia so much kills me. Stiles can’t even look at her
“What the hell is she” she’s something :)
Hi evil Derek LMAO
God y’all Argents are fucked up beyond belief
Awison... I miss u. I’m glad Scott’s happy....... these two ugh
AAAAND THERE IT IS, SEASON ONE FINISHED!!! 👏👏👏👏 I cant believe I used to hate this season, thank god I have a brain now. It’s genuinely so fun and enjoyable, I love it here 💕💕

1/3🔥Hello!! Congrats on your 300 followers!!! That’s amazing!!! :)))) You absolutely deserve it, your blog is just so hfkfjskalhdksla AnYwAy, I’d like to request a matchup please? I’m a female & prefer male & anyone whether it be a hero, villain or class 1-a is fine!! I’m 5’8 with long dark brown hair, light brown eyes (ok but I love my eyes) & a well-built body. My thighs r like low key thicc coz I have so much muscle(I do highly physically demanding sports) & kinda self conscious abt them—
2/3🔥I’m reserved when u first meet me but once u know me for a while I’ll be more open but it takes me a while coz I don’t trust people easily. ✨extroverted introvert✨ I like to hang out with people & I can be very loud & friendly but I need space as well coz my social energy depletes. I have a dark & sarcastic sense of humour & you’ll find me laughing at inappropriate times :P I’m analytical & don’t like it when people r unreasonable. I love watching people & studying them coz humans r just 3/3🔥so interesting. Love mountain climbing & rock climbing but also can be lazy, watch anime. Creative & spontaneous. Favourite colour is blue maybe lavender. A tomboy but love just dressing up fancily coz it’s just so fun^^; Not touchy feely but low key touch starved so yes pls cuddles but won’t be the one to start them. (But little spoon coz I’m always the 1 caring for everyone else T^T I just want love) Zodiac sign is Aquarius. Words: leaves, bonfire. Hope this wasn’t too long!! Stay safe💕
You reminded me of a certain character when you said you like to watch and study humans lmao (Izaya Orihara, is that you!?). I like to do the same! People watching can certainly be entertaining. Also, I just want you to know you are a precious bean. I love reading about all of your guys’ personalities and hobbies and favorite colors and everything. Y’all are so cute. <3
I match you with: Dabi!
-Okay. So your best friend Twice introduced you to the league at some point and convinced you to join, and that’s how you met Dabi. Dabi doesn’t tend to say much anyway and since you’re super reserved around people when you first meet, you guys didn’t really hit it off right away. You even got into a couple spats. They were never too bad and it never turned physical, but you would both annoy the shit out of each other.
-That is, until the day you found out that the both of you shared the same sense of humor. Someone (let’s be honest, probably Toga or Tomura) said something slightly suggestive, and you made a twisted joke in response without really thinking about it. Dabi was sitting next to you at the bar at the time and immediately burst out in laughter, which made you laugh too. From then on he was more friendly towards you and actually tried to get to know you.
-A favorite pastime of yours is roasting people together with your sarcastic sense of humor. He thinks it’s absolutely hilarious when you reply sarcastically to something someone said, and he’ll constantly egg you on because of that. He especially loves it when you get sarcastic with Shigaraki. He could watch that all day.
-He also really likes to human watch with you. You guys play that game where you watch people conversing and try to imagine what sort of crazy conversation they could be having. The two of you have come up with absolutely crazy things, and it makes for a good laugh. But other times he’ll take it seriously if you want, and he’ll listen to you while you tell him about how these people are, what you think their personalities are like, and so on. Dabi is pretty sure you’re spot on 99% of the time.
-The more you spend time together the more he realizes he really likes you and everything about you, including the fact that you mountain climb and watch anime. He never knew nature could be so relaxing. The first time he goes rock climbing with you, he feels so alive. It’s so relaxing and freeing for him- please make him do this more. But he’s also just down to watch anime with you if that’s what you want. His favorite physical trait of yours is your eyes. They’re just so...light. He likes to watch the emotions in them, likes to see them glittering with happiness while knowing he’s the one who’s causing that. Of course, he would NEVER say that out loud, but you can see it in that smirk of his.
-Dabi is smart enough to know when you want and need cuddles, and he also knows that you probably won’t ask for them because you’re just not the type to. Which is perfectly fine, because he would much rather give cuddles than receive them! He definitely wants to be the big spoon all the time, and he’s happy to hold you for as long as you want. Honestly, both of you are touch starved. He cuddles with his arms wrapped around you tight and you like to snuggle into him which makes him feel secure. It’s a good balance.
Fall Drable: Leaves/Bonfire
“I wasn’t expecting it to be this cold already.” You shivered and scooted closer to Dabi, your arms wrapped around yourself in an attempt to keep in any warmth you could.
“I told you to check the weather before we went on this mission, you know. That’s your fault entirely. It’s not exactly Summer anymore.” He gave you a side glance before returning his attention to the fire in front of the both of you, orange flames dancing in the reflection of his eyes.
For a moment it seemed he was just going to sit there and leave you to freeze- you hoped he wouldn’t, but he sure could have his moods sometimes. However, a few seconds after the fact he sighed and wrapped an arm around you to pull you closer, swaddling part of his leather jacket around your frame as he did so. It was hardly big enough for the both of you, but it was all you had; both of you were guilty of under-packing for the weather, and neither of you had thought to bring a blanket or anything warmer than your sleeping bags. The mission wasn’t supposed to last longer than a few days, and the rest of the week had been warm, so you didn’t really think anything of it at the time.
“Can’t this fire get any warmer?” You pressed further into his side, relishing in the small amount of warmth from his coat. “It’s so small, it hardly makes a difference...and I’d rather not get hypothermia and die.” Your breath came out as an icy puff of air as you spoke.
“If you find me something that will burn for a while, we could make a bonfire. But there weren’t many sticks or trees around here...” As he trailed off, he glanced into the small tree row at the edge of the clearing. “We could probably scavenge some wood from that way, but it’s pretty far off.”
“Remind me again why we can’t just use your quirk?”
“Because it’ll burn everything within seconds. Do you want me to light this whole campsite on fire?”
“No thanks, I’m not in the mood for arson right now. Try me again tomorrow though, you never know,” you quipped back, your eyes rolling as you shook your head. You had already known why you couldn’t use his quirk to start the fire, but it didn’t change the amount of annoyance you felt after hearing him say it out loud.
You took a quick look around as well trying to see if there was any garbage or debris that you could light on fire, but you found nothing. Nothing but the large piles of surprisingly still-colorful leaves on the ground, the wind rustling them every time a breeze blew by. Somehow they managed to seem vibrant even after leaving the trees bare by falling to the ground and nestling into the dirt for a while. You leaned down and picked one up, absentmindedly throwing it into the fire.
“Don’t do that, you’ll smoke us ou-” Dabi started to chastise you but quickly stopped as he watched the orange maple leaf smolder in the embers of the fire without drowning your campsite in smoke. “Hey, it’s actually burning.” Maybe... “I’m gonna go see if I can find some larger sticks by the row of trees. You stay here by the fire and gather up a couple piles of leaves. If we can burn up enough dry leaves with the sticks, then they’ll catch fire to the logs and keep it going.”
“I’ll do anything if it means this fire gets even slightly warmer.”
A half hour later you had four different piles of leaves and a couple of nice sized logs stacked to the side of the pit, thanks to your and Dabi’s efforts. Dabi set up a few sticks and two logs in the middle over the embers of the previous smaller fire, and then the two of you grabbed a handful of leaves each to throw on top. They caught fire almost immediately, and you kept piling them on as they burned up, the sticks eventually following suit. Next came the logs, and before you knew it, you had a sizable fire in front of you, warm flames licking at the wood and providing you both with heat.
“Finally...” you sighed, relaxing into your partner’s side once more.
“What a pain in the ass.” Beside you, Dabi returned to wrapping an arm around you, though he must not have felt like sharing his jacket anymore now that the fire was stronger.
“Me, or the fire?” you laughed, though you already knew how he would reply.
“Both.” He gave you that trademark smirk of his.

Legends of Tomorrow 5x12: My Thoughts
Sheesh this was a wild ride
AVA WAS WILLING TO DROP EVERYTHING SHE WAS DOING TO HELP LITA AND IM HERE FOR IT
Y’all remember when Nate was a hemophiliac? I guess the writers forgot all about that with the rest of seasons 1 and 2
Poor Gary, never being appreciated. I appreciate you Gary and so does John
* bro why was Ava in a mascot costume?
The world may never know
Oml Nate is bi, it’s canon
Give him a boyfriend, please
S H O T G U N N A T E
Lita now has two dads
WOW THIS EPISODE WENT OFF THE RAILS
So we’re just going to ignore all the Zari/John moments in this episode? Ok.
OH MY GOODNESS THE “when the world needed heroes, we gave them sisters” OR WHATEVER IT SAID. MY SEASON ONE HEART GOES OUT TO YOU LEGENDS
LMAO LOOK ME IN THE EYES AND TELL ME NATE & DION DIDN’T HOOK UP
aw Mick is so soft
Mick now has a monument in Washington DC AND a hall named after him. He’s also best-selling author Rebecca Silver
LITA WINS DAUGHTER OF THE YEAR
Lita calling Mick “dad” was a gift
Mick and Lita said eat the rich
Astra really wanted to burn the house down. No sweetie, that’s Mick’s job
The obligatory “you don’t have to change to be a legend” speech
It’s times like these that make me miss Len even more
Like imagine how different Mick’s storyline this season would have been if he was still alive
Anyway, back to the episode
Sara Lance, world renown assassin, the White Canary, Captain of the Waverider, paragon of destiny, can see into the futrure, and now beat the god of wine & parties in a game of beer pong
Nate really said no gender stereotypes
“SISTERS”
I applaud the writers for staying true to Zari’s religion. It’s small details like that that really make this show great.
But on the other hand, I feel somethings going to happen to Zari because she’s the only non-immortal one
Astra please don’t betray them
FUCK OFF LACHESIS
Well, looks like we’re having a crossover with the walking dead next episode. Great
#Legends of tomorrow#Nate Heywood#John Constantine#mick rory#lita Rory#Sara Lance#Ava sharpe#Zari Tarazi#Charlie#Astra logue#arrowverse

Anonymous said: THAT. WAS. AMAZING. i never knew one chapter could hold a rollercoaster of emotions. poor y/n and her family ): i cried when reading that part. rose, my dear, you are an angel and truly are blessed with the talent of writing such beautiful work. i loved it
Anonymous said: FrickfrickfrickFRICK I’m so worried about them!! Especially cause that ending was giving me hella Divergent vibes and that particular series didnt end the happiest for the main couple so I’m gonna ignore those vibes and say that they overthrew the government and built a new society on the burning ashes! ¡Viva la REVOLUCIÓN! Also amazing job! This was an awesome way to conclude the series and if anyone has anything negative to say about it I will personally fight them.
Anonymous said: man u rlly done murdered my family huh,, pour one out💀👊🏼
Anonymous said: realistically,, they probably died getting into the facility room let’s be real,, joon?? with a gun?? 🤡 but,, my ending would’ve ended like warm bodies where the zombies were freed and accepted back into society,, while y/n and jungoo stare out at a sunset all madly in love and shit,, and then she finally got that newly resurrected, living peepee 😪😤🤧
Anonymous said: I like the open ending so I can imagine they didn’t actually kill yn’s family 😔
unknowntalesx said: brrrooooo i LOVE IT , Y/N BEING LIKE FUCK YOU IM TAKING YOU DOWN FROM THE INSIDE OUT HAS ME LIVINGGGGGG ugh so good , thank u for this content 🌼
rosesareblack99 said: I CANT BELIEVE THEY KILLED HER FAMILY SBSJSKSKSKSKSL also zombieKook is such a sweetheart like no human man can relate.ooof you did your thing again rose now if you’ll excuse me i have a very important meeting with bitchin’
madjammil said: I have to say that as much as I absolutely loved the long awaited reveal of zombie peepee, I want you to know I laughed out loud at the exchange between the oc, JK and Namjoon after their little tryst on the rooftop, when she wanted to confirm that he had a pulse. Freaking hilarious. I have really enjoyed this series, so sorry that its over.
Anonymous said: “let’s go get your family back” jesus christ rose you’re literally a heartbreaker like this ending it’s just perfect your mind amazes me sometimes so im gonna cry myself out now ok bye
Anonymous said: what about my hamster ���😭😭 they quickly duck in and grab anarchy and go save the world ok? promise me 😭
poor anarchy :(( it up to decided what happens with her :D
Anonymous said: Rose, please give me my heart and soul back. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFULLY DEVELOPED!!! This is so different to everything I've ever read and I'm loving every second of it!!! My heart pounds so fast thinking about what an epic journey to confrontation this was, and what awaits for them!! The plot twist,the development...everything was exquisite👏👏✨ what if they got to save Jungkook's family and made an association for the reinsertion of the undead? Or what if (1/3) - 👻
none of them survived the confrontation, succumbing before they could even meet the others? The angst... My masochist heart imagines Namjoon telling the oc his feelings and admitting he only agreed to this just to buy time with her, because DEAD would find them eventually, so every second with her precious to him even if he lost her already... or them meeting jk's brothers and planning something huge, but in the end, they fail... GOSH my heart is just an uncontrollable (2/3) - 👻
mass of emotions right now and I feel so alive it hurts😭😭 I'm seriously trying to think when did I ever felt like this after reading a story, and the only experience that comes close is when I finished reading "The book thief" by Markus Zusak...however yours hit me harder somehow??? I just feel a beautiful tug at my heart and I can't but thank you for the heart and time you've poured into this masterpice, Rose!! Thank you so much! 😭 this is officially my all time favorite ilysm 3/3 -👻
I LOVED ALL THESE THEORIES!! OMG UR MIND

wrong send • bang chan (I)
pair: bang chan x reader
genre: college au, friends to lovers, fake dating, fluff, suggestive no smut tho uwu, a little angst, bullet point scenario
warnings: suggestive it’s just making out sjabdka
“In which Y/n was supposed to send her best friend, Lee Minho, a porn link for scientific purposes but accidentally sent it to her neighbor, Bang Chan.”
masterlist (a/n: sike ya bitch I’m too excited to wait for 6 pm so here you go hnng gotta cut it halfway bc tumblr can’t handle this masterpiece hnnghgn anyway sorry this took too long ive been procrastinating and i still had irremediable and unforeseen to deal with hhnghgn but pls don’t be afraid to request huehuehue and im sorry if my style of writing in bullet point format is similar to some writers hgnfhgng i’ve read some of these types of writing and it stuck with me so im very sorry :((( )
taglist: @cahtastrophie @anxietyishell
PART II
you and minho were close
you grew up together
learned to walk together
bath together when you were babies of course :))
bully and judge people together
basically everything
you studied in the same school and were inseparable since birth
it was like two puzzle together
when you need help with love minho is there to watch over you he scares all of them but u dont need to know that oof
when minho’s in trouble you’re there for him even if it’s bailing him out of jail dont ask why
you even watch porn together ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
but that’s all platonic!!!
the two of you tried dating and were each other’s first kiss
but it didn’t really work out for the both of you
it was too awkward
so you decided that you were better off as friends
but that didn’t stop the two of you to be close huehuehue
y’all still cuddle like kids and personal space never existed between the two of you
that stayed until college
everyone legit thought the two of you were dating but—
“me and minho??”, “me and y/n??”
and you’d both send each other a playful glare
“ew no”
so when minho asked you to send him some link to a gay porn website
you didn’t even bat an eye
so here you are
about to send some porn link for minho’s entertainment and prob for his minho junior ;)))
“here’s the link you bitch”
and there you go
but what weirded u out tho is when minho didn’t reply immediately
he’s always fast when it comes to your texts or calls
but then you thought maybe he couldn’t wait anymore and is busy fucking or whatever
so imagine your shock when u received a text with multiple question marks
“?????????”
“hello to you too but what is this for?”
it was bang chan
bang motherfucking chan
The Bang Chan™
the one with grades higher than your height
the athlete who joins a lot of sports but eats like he hasn’t for weeks
the one who sits in front of you and asks for pencils every now and then
and has more girls than you have friends
“is this porn?”
“oh wait”
“it is porn”
you threw your phone away from you, burying your face on the pillow to sulk in embarrassment
out of all people it just had to be him ��·°(৹˃̵﹏˂̵৹)°·๐
your phone rang with the ring tone minho had set for himself let’s all assume it’s a sexy song
“hoe where’s the link”
“i think i did something terrible”
“wouldn’t be your first time lmao but what is it??”
“i accidentally sent it to someone else….”
“…..”
“….”
“…”
“..”
“how and who the hell did u sent it to?”
“bang chan…”
“whomst-hAHAHAHHNGDBJ ISN’T THAT YOUR NEIGHBOR??”
“DON’T LAUGH A ME U BITCH ;’((("
“I CAN’T NOT HUHAHAHA”
you whine while he wheezes at your misery
“just tell him it’s not for him and apologize u big baby”
“but that’s just embarrassing” o(╥﹏╥)o
“do you really want him to think that it’s for him and you’re trying to make him hard and seduce him?? what makes it worse is that it’s gay porn”
“nO”
“tHEN DO SOMETHING”
so that’s how you find yourself standing in front of the door of the apartment across yours
with shaky hands you knock on the door
it opens to reveal bang chan himself in his shirtless glory- Σ(゜ロ゜;)
…..
(╬⁽⁽ ⁰ ⁾⁾ Д ⁽⁽ ⁰ ⁾⁾) !!!!!!!
sHiRtLEsS?????
suddenly, you don’t know how to breathe don’t we all tho
hngkdb mfucking bitch has defined abs how can you function normally
how is this man comfortable with showing his abs to random people???
it doesn’t help that he still has little droplets of water on his body
“hi?”
you yelp, literally, and that caused a small chuckle from chan at your cute reaction but!!!
HiS cHuCKle sOuNdED !!!!
you pinch your wrist to wake yourself up and maybe stop yourself from staring at his torso
now is not the time y/n!! (ノಥ益ಥ)ノ
“um- I’m- hi….”
“hi there” he smiles his dimpled smile and —*inhales*
your heart went !!!!
it took you a lot to compose yourself before you squish his cheeks in your hands
nO Y/N !!!
cOnTRol YOuRSeLf !!!
“soooo”
“huh?”
“come inside for a bit” he grins at your confused look and opened his door wider
what
wHaT?
reluctantly, you follow him inside his apartment. you weren’t surprised when u saw the mess inside, it was a small space but it wasn’t too small
what surprised you tho
there were pieces of female clothes on the floor and bed
Σ(‘◉⌓◉’)
you were confused for a moment before you finally undersstood the situation and that those clothes where female clothing
fEMALE
nOT HIS
“channie who was that?”
your head whip to the bathroom door to stare at the girl is your neck ok y/n?
her eyes were wide
like

and she looks scared :00
“a-are you chan’s s/o?” she gulps before scurrying to gather her things and run pass you muttering apologies and out the door she went
s/O????
you didn’t even have time to explain that you weren’t !!!
she just ran pass you !!!!
and wasn’t that mina?!?!
like The Mina™ who gets all boys huehue
“I’m sorry about her”
you hear chan sigh, now wearing a shirt
which was great bc if he stayed shirtless you might not be able to speak normally bold of u to assume that you can speak even if he’s fully clothed hhghghng
“she really think that these hook ups we have has a meaning”
hookups?
you shook your head, mumbling about how it doesn’t really mind you which is a big fucking lie
wHAT IF MINA GOSSIPS TO HER FRIENDS THAT YOU WERE CHAN’S S/O???
if anything she may already have broadcasted it to the whole campus
“sooo why did you came here??”
chan settled on his bed with a cute curious look on his face
just then did you remembered

you keep opening and shutting your mouth from nervousness lIKE HELLO??? HOW??? ARE YOU??? SUPPOSED TO BE CALM???

“i-t’s about t-the… link-”
chan chuckles and nods his head ”yeah i saw it”

“no not like that! i meant that i received it yes”

you played with the hem of your shirt. eyes casted down from embarrassment smh how many times are you going to embarrass yourself y/n hhhnghn
“p-please forget about the link”
“oh??” chan tilted his head in confusion still with his mfuckin smile
“i-it wasn’t supposed to be sent for you!!! i’m really sorry for calling you bitch too…”
chan was shookt when you bowed 360 degrees and repeatedly apologizing
so being the kind person he is he took a hold of your shoulders with a cute smile
cHAN STOP MAKING CUTE FACES !!! Y/N IS DEAD !!!
AND HE’S TOO CLOSE FOR COMFOT HHNGHNY/N ARE YOU STILL ALIVE???
HANG IN THERE SWEETY
“it’s alright, i don’t mind but…”

“does your boyfriend know???”
?????
“boyfriend?? i’m sorry but i don’t-”
“isn’t minho your boyfriend? y’know the dance major? i’m pretty sure the link is for him, right?”
o-O!!?
he thought you and minho??? are??? dating???
“um n-no we’re not! i mean we’re close but that’s it!”
chan released a relieved sigh and his smile came back
bUT?? HE’S STILL TOO CLOSE?? AND HIS BREATHING HITS YOUR BURNING CHEEKS??
“that’s good, I really thought I was going to have to face him”
he lets out a breathy laugh before letting go you secretly miss his touch and heading for his kitchen
“do you want to eat before going ahead? i mean you’re literally just across my front door so??”
well who are you to say no to that :’))
even if it’s possible that he can murder you rn but chan?? hurt someone??

"can we talk for a moment??”
minho nudge you on the elbow, nodding as if to tell you to go ahead so you stood up and followed chan outside the cafeteria

“I’m so sorry for what people are saying about us I’m pretty sure it was mina she usually gossips a lot to her friends but I didn’t expect her to tell them that we’re dating just bc you came yesterday-”
chan was now rambling his apologies just like you did last night he looked cute like that btw
“it’s ok chan!! I’m sure you didn’t mean for that to happen”

“can I ask you a favor??” he look uncertain so normally you were concerned

“i know this is probably going to be weird bc we just met last night and we’re not that close but-” chan look at your eyes to see if you still want him to continue so you nod at him
“c-can we please date?? but like fake dating and all?? i thought about it and it would really help me avoid those girls who wanted me in their bed and don’t worry i’ll pay you back! i swear-”

“i-im fine with it but why me tho??” bc you’re cute and awesome y/n (゚ヮ゚)
your cheeks became even more red than possible when chan gave you cute smile
"well, I really want to get to know you since last night and you weren’t like any girl to be honest”
aaAAHH
BANG CHAN U BITCH
Y/N???
ARE YOU STILL ALIVE???
you can feel your heart fluttering from his confession definitely not because he was looking at you with a fond smile and soft caring eyes hnghn
“so, are you in?"
with your trembling weak heart you nodded, knees weakening when he beamed at you and his mother fucking cute dimples showed
you’re doomed :’))
"great! I’ll see you later then”
later?? o-O??
“um what for??”
he chuckled at your confused lil face and patted your head
aaAAHH YOUR HEART JUST SKIPPED THOUSANDS OF BEATS
“for our first date dummy”

Rewatched Hannibal Recently...
... here are some random thoughts brain chips on the third season
watch out for a text wall it's a doozy down under
this rewatching I finally realized the first half of this season Hannibal was basically like “I’m touring Europe with Bedelia one last time before I check myself into jail so I can see my bf often”
Will must’ve been real good at arts and crafts. He made a whole ass butterfly?bee?dragonfly?firefly man display out of shattered wine bottles and garbage from a basement basically
Also how did he not cut his hands with the glass???? He had leather gloves sure but it’s not like those are cut resistant?????? Does he have cut-resistant leather gloves???????
In Hannibal Rising Chiyoh is Hanni’s aunt’s lady-in-waiting (?) and was described as being about his age; if we’re going by that, she’s the same age as him in the show, which, ughhhhhh, let’s just say really really plays into the idea of us Asians not raisining (not mad at all; Tao Okamoto is so beautiful im gay as HELL —)
Bedelia: you’re in love with Will Graham and also leave me alone plz can I stop finishing murders on your behalf now
Hannibal was remarkably off his killing game at the end of the second season (or just really on his planning game) like NO ONE except for poor Abigail is dead by the 3rd season
Thinking about the filming of some scenes is so funny like:
the crew carrying leather arm chairs and fancy glass side tables into the middle of some woods for a single shot
Bryan Fuller being like “ughhhh can I get a membrane-like sheet over this macro lens so I can film it bring sliced open like its will’s stomach skin”
“also I need three thousand gallons of fake blood for some cool reverse drip shots”
everyone: Will help us catch Hannibal you must hate him so much right???? Will: busy imagining alternate reality where he and Hannibal actually worked it out at the end of the 2nd season
Will: tries his damndest to ignore everyone telling him he and Hannibal are in love while being very much smitten
Mason: talks religious mumbo jumbo Alana after her bi awakening: *choke stare
the only saving grace for Jack Crawford is how much he’s the “I love my wife” trope
Frederic: ...why does no one wanna help me with Hannibal hunting when I go a-knocking but when Will does it everyone’s with him????????? What’d I do
No one: Bryan Fuller: I NEED SOME SNAIL FUCKING SHOTS HERE
Bedelia: i feel like I’m your diet Will Graham Hannibal: what? no *continues to talk about how special Will Graham is and how no one will be his equal basically
WOAH question on Chiyoh so did Hannibal ~literally~ taxidermy her in time with some cannibal magic & that’s why she looks about, I don’t know, in her twenties still ?????? /s
Bryan Fuller: NOW I NEED TO OPEN AN OLD PAYPHONE FOR AN INTERIOR SHOT
Chiyoh: he’s good looking but dumb about Hannibal so
I’ll kiss him
then push him off the train
(hopefully dude’ll be warned but also finally learn how to gay)
Bryan Fuller: ARE YOU MISSING SOME SLOW MOTION SHOTS OF HUGH DANCY FLIPPING OF THE TRAIN IN YOUR LIFE? ALWAYS
how did Mason and Pazzi achieve high resolution uninterrupted overseas video chat with the front camera of Apple laptops????? the power of wealth????? whenever I call my mom my phone turns into a potato pretty much
the jack v hannibal fight was the ultimate “I luh my dead wife” man v “I just need to stay alive and go meet my boyfriend” man fight
Bedelia: I know what your goodbye is; I know what you wanna do to Will and you’re in love with the dude. No thanks I’ll yeet myself outta here
“waving your uterus around like a weapon” how iconic
Dolce will forever go down in cinematic history there I said it. Nothing tops the mirroring scars, the downright sensual romantic dialogue in front of a fucking Botticelli, this 水乳交融 of two minds (can’t find a good enough translation other than maybe “melding”), one of the weirdest most kaleidoscope-forward lesbian sex scene of all times, a lot of overlapping orgasm faces, reflexive hugs and pats of comfort, weirdly timed lip-lickings, etc etc
At least Mason recognizes how good looking Will’s is lmao even with all the burnt penis talk on the table
“He’s looking very dry a little moisturizer please” Mason your gay is showing
“It’s dangerous getting exactly what you want” yeah we got this season of Hannibal and then no more of it I’d say you’re right on the money Dr. Lecter
Alana and Margot helping Hannibal and Will: LGBT solidarity at its finest
dumbest thing mason did was probably pissing off Margot
So basically Chiyoh is made of a stable metal element between iron and silver that’s why she doesn’t age?????? /s
maybe “I found you in my mind palace” can be our “always”
I remember the first time I watched Digestivo and I was so worried Hannibal’s gonna finish eating Will or take off or continue into the book silence of the lamb arc or something after Will basically went “I won’t go looking for you at all bye bitch where my dogs at” so imagine my fucking delight ecstasy when Hannibal threw himself at the FBI just so Will can always find him. I cried buckets and became a devout Bryan Fuller STAN that day
Chiyoh: fuck this shit im out; don’t wanna protect this idiot boy with luv no mo
Molly: weirdly familiar sharp features, sand-blond hair, husky sultry deeper voice hmmmmmmmmm guess WHAT
...but she actually likes doggos so
Bryan Fuller: HUGH DANCY. COVERED IN BLOOD. NAKED. UNDER THE MOONLIGHT. NOW
Will gives Bedelia SO MUCH SHIT about using Hannibal as a means to fame that he almost forgets how possessive protective of Hanni this makes him look
Bedelia: calm yo ass do you know how many “Will is special you’ll never be him” talks I’ve been in with Hannibal as the main lecturer?????
Bedelia: did you go visit him Will: ...yeah Bedelia: whelp fuck my leg is about good as steak any day now
An odd detail I remember about this Will/Bedelia interaction was Bryan Fuller saying in some interview (probably) that this is basically wife confronting mistress; you know who’s which
when Reba was touching the tiger that vet guy must’ve stayed in the room right??? for safety and stuff??? guy must’ve had the weirdest time just seeing Francis freak the fuck out watching Reba
also Reba deserves all the nice things in the world; Francis though an overall shitty person can recognize beauty
...wait i take it back dude said Will was ugly (ok he said “not very handsome” but) like bitch where
for a series with pretty good sfx that teeth scene in 310 was fake as f---
will and bedelia taking shots at each other verbally cracks me tf up like is this the psychology people’s version of “you suck” “uno reverse”
i have to keep reminding myself that this is a crime show that actually aired on national tv bc these dialogues mama??? downright telenovela. Bryan Fuller has a point when he described them as wife and mistress
Bedelia: I would’ve preferred to be bluebeard’s last wife Will: challenge accepted
i cannot stress this enough REBA DESERVES BETTER she seems like the nicest, most well-meaning person ever and deserves to be cherished like so
it's so strange, getting everything that you want; take Will’s slow-burn-esque realization of Hannibal’s twisted affections for example
Bryan Fuller: NOW GIVE ME A CLOSE UP OF ICE SUCKING
So basically Hannibal’s attitude is “if I can’t be a constant fixture in his life I’ll be on his mind”
Hannibal is always a sucker for some good will ehhhh
Hannibal, in a police vehicle: get in Will we’re going cliff-diving dragon hunting; no but the actual line is just as cheesy geez hanni u smooth man-eater
The Bloom-Vergers look straight out of some gothic family catalog (if those exist)
like i will spare y’all the contrived complements of the Wrath of the Lamb bc like fucking hells mate there's no straight explanation for this finale
that’s it thanks for reading mates hannigram forever also someday some wealthy person will revive this I'm sure and we’ll rejoice then
#hannibal#nbc hannibal#hannigram#will graham#chiyoh#brain chips#im sorry but also not#hannibal s3#i really appreciate Bryan Fuller if you cant tell#thank you for your service mr fuller#me rambling#bedelia du maurier#jack crawford#reba mcclane#bryan fuller

Hello, your fiveya pride and prejuice had me on my knees. Everything you have writing for the umbrella academy is so nice, this fandom should be thankfull you are here making gold content. I'm not very creative and I still dont know which kind of prompts you would like, but the last au gave me some Elizabeth Swan vibes, so maybe you could do a Fiveya Pirates of the Caribbean Au? Whatever you make I'm sure will be wonderfull :)
It’s 1732, and Governor Reginald Hargreeves and his two adopted daughters, accompanied by the family butler, Pogo, are sailing to Port Royal aboard HMS Crown when they come across a shipwreck. The lone survivor of the tragedy is a young boy, shaking and shell-shocked. A sympathetic Pogo begs Reginald to allow him to take him in - Pogo himself will rear and provide for the child out of his own wages.
Vanya clutches the railing and looks out into the wreckage, into jagged mountains of burning wood obscured by ink black plumes of smoke that cast a ghostly silhouette against the dreary sky and the great gray sea, and can’t take her eyes off of it. It’s a tragedy, with glowing embers peeking through the remains of the ship, keeping it alive and drowning in the water, and Vanya is fascinated.
I do not want to know what transpired here, she thinks. She doesn’t need to know, anyway - it looks like a wasteland, like something writhing and nearly dead, and then her father takes her by the shoulders and pulls her away.
The boy is raised in a fine household, alongside Reginald’s two young daughters, both of whom are handsome, intelligent, and composed. His truest and most constant friend, though, is Vanya.
The Boy starts out as a Will Turner of sorts, only more confident and living in relative comfort, except with the knowledge that he is an outsider even among orphans, and a survivor of something terrible. He longs to go back.
By 1742, the boy is merely fifteen and already deemed an academic prodigy in a vast array of scientific, mathematical, mechanical and historical studies.
By the end of 1742, he’s gone, vanished into the night and headed for the sea. Vanya, not for the first time in her life, is alone.
Years later, she’s grown into a beautiful yet confined woman. During a botched proposal, Vanya faints, due to a combination of heat, anxiety, and a too-tight corset, plummeting into the harbor below, only to be rescued by a mysterious man
Surprise y’all guess who it is
Five and his crew are under a curse that renders them undead corpses under the moonlight, burdened with immortality. Idk why he’s cursed, ig he just got up to a lot of pirate shit lmao. The gold of his father’s pocket watch is key to breaking this curse, and he’s returned to Port Royal after all these years to retrieve it, after he gave it to Vanya for safekeeping the day before he abandoned the Hargreeves household to rejoin the life of piracy
She agrees, of course, but he is soon confronted by both Reginald and Leonard, backed by the Navy, on account of 1) being a pirate and 2) trespassing and in order to safely escape he takes Vanya hostage
In his time away, Five has become captain of the dreaded Academy, the ship that his own father used to command before the wreck. Vanya initially disapproves of his life choices because he may be older now and like damn ok, but 1) hygiene 2) the ethical ambiguity of piracy and 3) you left me dude without warning ,, tf is up with that?
Cue childhood friends reconnecting in really awkward circumstances + maybe Stockholm syndrome
Luther, Ben, Klaus, and Diego are members of his crew. While Diego is a fantastic swordsman, Ben has a connection with sea monsters that allows him to dissuade nearby creatures from bothering their ship. Klaus is a mystic they picked up along the coast who can communicate with the dead - it’s through him that they learn the specifics of the curse.
Five glances down at her, sleeves rolled above his forearms, his hair dripping saltwater over his brow. “The Romans did it, didn’t they?” Honor among thieves is how the saying goes. “They encouraged it, actually, especially in children. Stealing. Steal from your enemies, steal from your neighbors, steal from your friends.”
At this, Vanya’s eyes narrow. “I wouldn’t steal from my friends.”
Five shrugs.
“It builds character,” he says, “and it builds world skills. If you’re a thief, then you’re fast, resourceful, and, most importantly, you’re still alive. That’s helpful. It can be a good thing, to be a thief.”
“The greatest empire of all time, after Britain, just a whole lot of thieves?”
“That’s Rome, then, a bunch of thieves. The empire essentially stole its own foundation from other civilizations, you know? Arches and aqueducts and art - even the Republic was based on direct democracy.” He leans back and looks at her from under his lids. The floor below them shifts and sways along with the rhythm of the sea, and Vanya leans against the mast to keep her horizon line steady.
“So you’re a history buff now?”
“I always have been,” Five says defensively. “Math is just more exciting. You don’t need to get caught up with the Romans anyway,” Five laughs. “We’re pirates.”
“I suppose I need to find a way to make myself useful, then?” Vanya crosses her arms, squinting under the white hot sun. “Be helpful.” Do as the Romans do.
“No, of course not,” Five says quickly, uneasy, bitter. “You didn’t join the crew, remember? You were kidnapped.”
Days into her kidnapping on the high seas, Vanya ditched her heavy ass dress for a practical pair of trousers and tied her hair up. The sun smiles down on them in a thousand yard stare, reflecting white off the crests of the waves that jostle the ship further away from land, and her white skin has already shown signs of browning. She can breathe, though, better and easier than she’s ever breathed in her entire life
The ocean never ends, but Vanya can see something flickering on the horizon, something that looms across the skyline and drags the sky down to meet it. It feels like hope, like dreams once dashed in her girlhood, and now that it has come out of hiding, unclothed and unabashed under an impossible white sun, Vanya can’t stop looking.
The Academy is still being pursued by the Royal Navy, and Five can’t just return Vanya bc they're not only on the run but they’ve got shit to do, aka curse-breaking shit. Plus, he really, really doesn’t want to
And deep down he can tell that she doesn’t want to either
“But you like it here, don’t you,” he accuses her, hard and fast because he knows she’ll be honest, and the strategist in him wants to size the queen, wants to take her home. “You were miserable back there,” Five reminds her, his own eagerness a tangible thing to his ears. “Reginald made you miserable. Jenkins made you miserable, hell, even Allison made you miserable.” Vanya’s gaze remains unblinking, but the corner of her mouth twitches ever so slightly, her lower lip dragging it down. The sight of it gives him pause, and he wants to stop for a moment, wants to apologize for it, but the conqueror in him leers in approval and he’s plowed too forward, too far already. “You wanted to leave, every second of every day. That’s what you told me,” Five reaches forward to take her by the shoulders, gently crowding her against the railing, and she looks up and into his face, dwarfed by his height. “You’re free now, you’re here. Reginald can’t get to you. Why would you want to go back?”
You’re free now. There’s nothing for you there, he tries to say, and she must get this, because her eyes go alight, just for a second, and her lip curls into a snarl.
The thing is, she’s much happier here, with Five and his crew and a great, endless sea, but she remembers Allison all too vividly, remembers that she left her alone without warning. Vanya knows that it’s like to be left behind, and the thought of Allison alone with only their father for company strikes something hollow and sinking into her chest, something like dread
“I don’t want to go back,” she snaps, harsher than he expected, and he lets go of her. “Of course I don’t.”
You think I want to go back to corsets and Reginald’s voice in every hallway of that old, evil house, and Leonard crowding me everywhere, acting like I’ve already said yes, and this stench of absence that follows me wherever I go.
Oh, she realizes, of course he doesn’t.
“Then don’t.”
Vanya glares at him, hard and herself, and he can see the betrayal sink into her face and settle like silt at the bottom of a glass.
“It’s because we’re family,” she says, and the fifteen-year-old in Five finds himself enraged because Vanya’s family is supposed to be here, with him.
“I need to see her again,” Vanya enunciates carefully, forming every word with a nervous kind of fear, like she thinks he won’t understand, and Five’s anger dissipates almost as quickly as it had risen.
They’re going to break that curse, and Five will be a real boy (man) again. Allison won’t be alone, because her sister will come back for her (just as Five came back for Vanya). They’ll all have real, red, beating hearts, and Five will have Vanya for himself and Vanya will have one thing all her own - she has an entire ocean to conquer and no regrets
For once, Vanya has a choice, and it’s a pirate's life for her
#fiveya#the umbrella academy#five hargreeves#vanya hargreeves#ask me anons#mini fic#i havent seen this movie since fourth grade and know shit about pirates smh#and this is not my best writing plus i wrote it at like 1 in the morning#but i do love the concept of a pirate Five and a Vanya just looking for agency in her life#thank you so much btw and if you have any other prompts hit me with them as hard as you can#pirates of the caribbean au

Nice to Meet You, Angel. || Demon!Joshua
Ft. Joshua/Jisoo(s Chri—actually no, the complete opposite)
Anon: Demon Joshua😏
A/N: This AU has gone through 4 whole plot rewrites rip. kinda inspired by Good Omens!! (also 2 aus in a week?? whaaaaaat)
!! This is a gender neutral!reader fluff with 1945 words~ !!
Before we begin the plot, lemme quickly go through the basics of the universe
yayy lin’s doing world building again
there are angels and demons in the universe, simply just the optional jobs of people’s souls once they die
if they choose this job, they don't remember much of their life on Earth, but they do remember events they associate w/strong emotions bc it helps them
for ex. an angel could remember how sad a death made them feel so they know to prevent it
and a demon can remember how angry a bully made them felt so they can make people that level angry
both angels & demons take the form of their bodies when they were alive and roam on Earth
they can also return to Heaven/Hell and observe Earth from their respective realms
also yes demons can be summoned, but lmao you can also just give em a phone call via incantation
the angel equivalent to this phone call is praying
demons can pretty much do anything as long as it relates somehow to the Seven Deadly Sins (pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, sloth)
angel powers are more holy/good, and they can grant things in prayers if they choose, etc
Anyway, YOU KNOW THIS BOI??
THiS bOi sHUa
he's chill af for a demon ok
one of the first demons so like no one really knows how he’s a demon bc he’s so polite
there’s some speculation that he was one of the first to fall but like
what the hell did he do???
But also some say he became a demon out of spite bc he saw a demon commit a “sin” that actually helped someone
so he became a demon just to help people in a more… unholy way
and then he was upset angels hated him just because he was a demon
like wow spirit discrimination
NOW YOU—
you are an angel (literally)
you’re the angel that protects like. atheists/"non-believers" bc c'mon just because they don’t believe in God/gods doesn’t mean they shouldn't have access to that protection service
(yes hello you’re calling APS, the Angel Protection Service sponsored by God, how may I help you?)
so yeah you’re pretty chill yourself since you have to constantly deal with people who don't believe in you lol
One fine day, you were listening to a prayer from a sick college student
ok it wasn't really a prayer but they were like "oh please, my god, let me get some sleep tonight"
you gladly put them to sleep and they slept soundly at night
when you checked on them the next morning, you noticed—
A dEmON?!?
…lying right next to the student (but above the covers, he has boundaries), who isn't stirring at all
if the leather jacket and ripped jeans didn't tip you off, he had some horns on his head to confirm ur suspicions
You: "Hey what in the world are you doing here?!"
???: "What? If they get up rn they won't be able to pay attention in class. I'm letting them rest first"
You: "Wha—who—okay, okay okay… who are you?"
"I’m Joshua, nice to meet you, angel"
Shua knows he has the name of an angel so afterwards he's like. Don't get it confused bish.
you ask him what he's doing, and basically, he's using the sin sloth on this sicko student so they stay in bed and recover instead of going to class
Even tho you feel iffy abt letting a demon affect a human right in front of you, an angel, you are a bit intrigued
you haven't seen a demon use their powers for good before…
who is this guy??
anyway he disappears, presumably to Hell, once the student needs to wake up
which is when u miracle them some bread to get
But don't worry, you're destined to meet again~
which you did, on several occasions
and ok maybe you were glad to talk to someone who was actually interesting
so, yknow,,, if another angel was like "hey y/n uhh there's a demon… bothering? someone? idk but it's a non-believer, that's ur jurisdiction right"
you had a guess on who this demon was…
…and you were right
Joshua: "Oh hey angel"
You: "Ew, you make it sound like a pet name"
JS: "Well I don't know your name, do I?"
You: "Oh. Right. It's Y/N."
he still calls you angel tho, smh that flirt
y'all just bicker and/or chat for a bit whenever u go help the same person
Like one time when he insisted that you let him use gluttony on a teen so they'd eat a lot of ice cream that day
they had just been through a bad break up so u let it slide
Or another time he used wrath on a timid kid so they could stand up to a bully
all of these ended w/you two bickering while walking away
There was this little girl you were watching from heaven who was writing a letter to "Whoever Can Do This"
little girl started listing a bunch of things, which you assumed were toys
but then you realized it was actually stuff like food, friends, a puppy, a loving dad who will go out to the park with her—
so u go down there to check on this lil child
…and that's when you see a familiar leather jacket watching over her and suggesting other things to write
you can’t see him from heaven so ur like gosh darn it I should’ve known
"Joshua?? I should've known it was—"
*cue both shua and the child turning around*
JS: "Oh hey, nice to see you, angel"
Lil' Nugget: *GASP* "Mr. Josh is this ur s/o???"
JS: "Hm? Oh, I mean, no, but um…"
You: "Josh what have u been putting into this one's head…"
Shua's all like "greed! Her dad's been ignoring her since her mom died so we're writing a list of things she wants"
then the smol girl smiles so wide and is like "Mr. Josh is helping me! He's my new friend!!"
ur like awww dangit ok I'll let it slide if u let me help
Once she finishes it, Josh hands the girl's list over to you
he explains quietly he wants you to miracle her dad to pay attention+love his daughter again so they can have/do all the other things on the list
you read it over again and do just that
The little girl gives the list to her father, your miracle allowing them to have a fun afternoon eating ice cream and playing with her toys
And you and Josh have a nice time too~
once y'all left that girl's room, he invited you for some soda
"Coke? I hope you mean Coca Cola"
"Yeah, uh, there's a place with a vending machine not too far from here. We can walk"
You don't spend time on Earth often, but you learn as you walk w/Josh that he "prefers the air up here"
mainly bc he doesn't fit in with the other demons, but he also just likes spending time with humans
(obviously tho he needs to go down to hell occasionally for like conferences and such)
you don't remember if you've ever been on a date before lol
Josh doesn't either, but he does remember how jumbled up ur emotions get, which he is not ready for
then again of course he has, I mean look at that charm
however, you can't remember if the feeling you get when going on ur little date with Shua is love :/
it isn’t really, but just bc this is ur first “date,” so it makes sense
But Josh makes sure to take you out again… for dinner!!!
you were investigating the use of lust and pride at the same time
of course, it was just Josh helping a guy find someone to hook up with
you were kinda disgusted and wanted to leave, so shua gladly took your arm and pulled you away to a restaurant!
y’all had a nice dinner, paying with some money Josh had collected
and then you went to walk together and chat some more
he’s breathtaking, and he actually wants to spend time with you despite y’all being on opposite sides of an inevitable war
You don’t care, going on more dates just to talk and not have to care about ur jobs and other stuff
Shua hears you yell “what the hell” at some point and he’s like woAH you can say that???
“Yeah. I mean, it’s not really polite, but I can. Can you say ‘Thank God?’”
“‘Thank God?’ Well look at that, I can. Good point”
you love him because he’s so chill and doesn’t give a f*** abt anything
except you and humans, apparently
like he could’ve burned or smth by saying “Thank God” or be confined to the basement of Hell for helping people/talking with you, but he doesn’t care lmao
However, no one really knows you’ve been talking with a demon tho so uhhh
when they do you get in a little bit of trouble w/the archangels
ur boss was essentially like “y/n what the HECK are you doing?!? you’re on thin ice rn”
you get mad at him, trying to defend Joshua
and you’re right in doing so, since he just wants to help people with a different set of powers
ur archangel boss sends you back down to Earth, saying you can’t return to Heaven until they work smth out
(they probably want to burn you with Hell fire)
You warn Josh, knowing they might burn you
he’s adamant on keeping you with him, so y’all try to hide or smth
which won’t work of course, but you can try, right?
right?
Shua and you sit together on a bench, with you leaning on his shoulder
“Joshua… I’m scared, I don’t want to be burned!”
“Don’t worry y/n, it’ll be okay. I love you, angel, nothing bad will happen”
and just like that, you remember what it feels like to love
“You’re right. I love you too. Help the non-believers for me if I go, alright?”
“I’ll help them just for you.”
Your archangel boss is smart, knowing the worst punishment for you is to be reincarnated without memories
you wouldn’t remember Joshua at all
and when he drags u back up to Heaven, you want to cry
do angels cry holy water? anyway
you’re sent back to Earth as a baby that can’t fend for itself
You remember nothing.
You’ve recently graduated from college and are out looking for a job
you’ve gotten rejected and fired so many times
for ex. just now, after you were arguing with someone who spoke another language that you didn’t know and there was no translator available
the customer wasn’t willing to cooperate either, ignoring your attempts to use an online translator smh
it’s late and you’re tired, so you leave, angry, and start coughing frantically when you inhale too much smoke coming from the alley next to you
naturally, you’re like “What the hell?! Dude, you’re not supposed to be smoking this close to an entrance!”
“Why do you care? You don’t work here anymore”
you take a better look at the stranger once he steps into the light of a nearby lamppost
it’s a dude in a leather jacket and ripped jeans who drops his cigarette
“Need help getting a job, y/n?”
“how do you—what—who are you?”
he extends a hand out to you, which you shake reluctantly
“I’m Joshua. Nice to meet you, angel.”

Anne With An E S03Ep08 “Great And Sudden Change”
- Ka’kwet! Oh you brilliant starfish child, you saved yourself and got away. Also, this milkman, is this the same one from the beginning of s1?
- Ahhhhh Diana and Anne. This h u r t s
- Fucking hell I knew it.They burned down the school. Bitch what the Fuck. They really going to try and pretend like this was an accident? You Stole the Printing Press.
- Wow props to the actors for this scene, their devastation over this cruelty cuts deep. And Ms. Stacie coming through once again as a brilliant teacher, and someone to look up to.
- Anne your fury is as always righteous and you’re doing amazing sweetie but Rachel probably isn’t the right target. Oh... Rachel. Her character definitely has it’s ups and downs but I’m glad she’s taking an active stance in this.
- Ka’kwet is so capable and intelligent, I Love Her. I hope she makes it home so badly, she deserves to be loved and cherished and I hope I hope I hope that this leads to the rest of the children at the residential school being saved. Knowing what I know of history, I doubt it.
- Once again, I’m really glad Moira chose to include this and made it such a major plot in season 3, because this is a part of history that is glossed over in classrooms and absolutely should Not be
- Ooooh Hazel LaCroix has arrived. This should be interesting, based on how Bash has spoken about his mother in the past. I hope she’s here to reconcile and make up for past mistakes, Bash could really use some good things going for him right now.
- lksjdlfjfldsj Moody and Ruby are so cute they snuck up on me and I adore them
- Anne and Gilbert sitting together by the window... completely relaxed and bodies angled to each other... poetic cinema
- Lol, Ms.Stacie being a mood as always
- Shirbirt is so cute I can’t
- aslkdckej what is this trilling music?? Is she casting a spell???
- oof. sorry Anne
- OOF. DIANA AND JERRY. WOW THIS HURTS! WOW THIS HURTS A LOT. Diana. Diana you don’t have to do this. Literally all you have to say is “no of course I’m not too good for you. This is just... painful.
- AUNT JOSEPHINE? how did she know to come? Disturbance in the force? Also loving this music as Diana walks toward herself in the mirror’s reflection, very reminiscent of montage music set to a character undergoing a significant change in who they present themselves to be.
- Diana. I could write an entire essay on my feelings about Diana. She feels so trapped and for a few brilliant moments it seemed like she was breaking free and learning to take what she wanted in life, but she seems so scared now, and so lost and confused. Of course she’s going to say she’s going to finishing school - it’s what her parents have been molding her into for her entire life, and of course in this moment when she’s so lost on what to do next she’d fall back on the already laid out plan for her. And yet even so, I wish she would write the exams, just like Josephine says. Better to try, and know that it’s an option then shooting yourself in the foot. Oh Diana, my beautiful imperfect daughter, I want you to have all the happiness and freedom you deserve, not to be stifled by ridiculous notions of society
- (I have a lot of feelings about Diana Barry)
- ayyyyy Auntie Jo really went “ya basic” huh. Diana please wake up, listen to your aunt. But wow, this must be heartbreaking for Diana, it must really feel like everyone is leaving her.
- Oof and here we have Hazel’s first big indicator that her son’s life is not the same as her own. I really don’t blame her for falling back on the only thing’s she’s known her entire life, but you can see where that desire and drive to protect her son ends up hurting him.
- ... Anne’s geometry prep seems so easy is this really all you needed to get into uni
- Matthew. “You’re as smart as they make them” he as so much faith in her, both him and Marilla and WOW I love the Cuthberts.
- LET! KA’KWET! MAKE! IT! HOME! SAFE!
- this is the most awkward tea everYES! YES DIANA PLEASE BE GOING TO WRITE THE QUEEN’S EXAM. Josephine’s little knowing smirk is everything I Love This
- Wow. Ya ok wow this is exactly what exam prep is like and I feel this panic in my soul. Y’all are going to do great!
- Ahh! Their shouts of Diana are so good for the soul and look at how alive she looks this is So Good!! She’s so happy and proud of herself, I’m so proud of her
- No seriously, was this literally all it took to get into university....
- ... Y’all this pen going to come back isn’t it
- ahhh this is giving me flashbacks and anxiety No Thanks. Good luck to all of them (except Billy if he’s there, fuck Billy)
- Absolute legend Marilla teaming up with force of nature Rachel, get fucked you angry old boiled socks
- YES! YES LOOK AT THEM GO THEIR SO BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL AND ALIVE AND THEY’RE STILL CHILDREN AND YET NOT QUITE ANYMORE AND LOOK AT HOW HAPPY AND FREE THEY ARE RUNNING OUT OF THE EXAM.
- wow it’s real “Excitement over one stage of life ending but what comes next hours” huh
- yes Diana live your best fucking life! I’m so proud of all of them but her especially I’m so glad she chose this.
- Ah. The Rose household. So glad we’re here.
- In all seriousness though, nothing against Winnie she’s amazing in her own right but she’s not the one for Gilbert and the sooner he realizes this the sooner they can both move on with their lives.
- Wow. Mr. Winnie’s Dad sir, you’re sure being super subtle about this
- Side note, I know their all growing up and it’s different back then with expectations of age, but he’s just... so young. Gilbert is so young and Winnie is already so much more experienced then him.
- Yes! Yes this is what I want! These kids deserve a night to just Have Fun and be as wild and carefree as their hearts desire. Their growing up yes, but they’re not grown up now, and I’m so happy with the pure light and joy emanating from these kids.
- Oh my gods. Oh my Gods. The soft fairy music, the fire light. Anne is a beautiful creature of sparks and magic, ethereal and fae and look at how Gilbert looks at her. He loves her so much oh my gods this is perfection thank you Moira for my life.
- ...I’m so soft
- Holy Fuck my heart. “Just...one thing” he’s so gone on her and she’s falling so deeply for him.
- lmao Anne’s drunk out of her fucking mind Gilbert this was a terrible time to do this is2g these two
- He’s so fucking heartbroken baby. Y’all need to learn to communicate Gilbert she wasn’t rejecting you I’m so ahhhhh
- Wow! These two really be on the same braincell energy. Soulmates!
-Bash, I adore you so much his and Gilbert’s relationship is so well done and I love him and the way he teases Gil. Also Bash has been team Shirbert since the beginning and his little dance is everything. Lmao the difference between when he though Gil was going to marry Anne vs when it was Winnie...telling.
- “Now now, no need to be hysterical” FUCK EM UP MARILLA AND RACHEL!!! FUCK EM UP RACHEL!!!
- I have no words for Ka’kwet’s reunion with her mother and her people besides that now I’m crying
- wow, Minnie May serving up truth to both Diana and about the unrealistic expectations placed on siblings when placed in competition with each other
- yes Marilla! look at her go! Also Anne I know you’re dealing with a lot but like... you maybe want to show a bit more enthusiasm?!?!
- thank you. Thank you So Much for Diana and Anne, this is amazing and I’m so glad my two beautiful daughters have come through this stronger and better than ever.
- “ Here's the truth: friendships between women are often the deepest and most profound love stories” - Emily Rapp ~perhaps a point was made
- Wow that’s really how we’re going to end that huh!
Final Thoughts:
F i n a l l y Anne has said it out loud. I can’t wait for the absolute disasters that are sure to prevent these one braincell geniuses from actually talking to each other. No but for real, I’m so excited for the next stage of their relationship, though I’m sure it will be just as agonizing to watch them figure out how to move forward. Ka’kwet is home safe! While I really just want her to stay and be happy with her life, I doubt that is what will happen. Nevertheless, she’s amazingly strong and intelligent and the injustices done to her in the series are sickening, and it’s important to remember that all these things really happened to the indigenous population in Canada, and that reconciliation and amendments are still in the works today. The last residential school in Canada close in 1996. This is not a distant memory of the past, it is a crisis, the ripple effect still being felt in the indigenous communities today. Bash and his mother have such an interesting dynamic, as it’s clear that her life experiences and her love for her son cause her to act in ways that while done with the best intentions, end up hurting him, and it will be interesting to see how awae handles this. And finally, my girls, Anne and Diana. I’m so proud of Diana this episode, for taking yet another step closer to her own freedom, and I’m so proud of the two of them for recognizing their mistakes and refusing to let it come between them. Next episode, I assume will deal with the fallout of Ka’kwet running away from the school, Gil about to propose to Winnie and what Anne plans to do now that she knows what she is feeling, and expansion on Bash and Hazel’s relationship and I can’t wait.

“Damn, I thought we were going to a five-star restaurant.” Riya almost whined, pouting as she sat down beside Darius opposite Zafira.
“Sorry, Babe, but not everyone has Jonas Brothers’ type of money.” Darius said with a shrug. Zafira burst out laughing and lifted her hand for a high five. Darius grinned and slapped her hand right as a waitress came up to their table.
“Hey guys, my name’s Justine!” she said enthusiastically, before she gestured to her name tag which had ‘Justine’ written on it. Zafira didn’t miss the bright jingling silver bracelet that had ‘BUCKET’ written in caps before a big red heart. “I’ll be your waitress for today. Here are your menus, don’t hesitate to call me if you need anything,” she said with a smile, “Oh, and I should let you know, we currently have the meal deal on the Grilled Chicken Sandwich if you happen to be interested in a free cookie by any chance…” she winked.
The three of them gasped in unison as the waitress walked off to tend to another table and looked at each other. “Free cookie?!” Zafira said in amazement, as she watched Darius and Riya mirror her expression.
“We have got to get that meal deal.” Darius practically demanded, with a slap of his fist on the table, none of them paying any attention to the three menus that jumped up and almost fell off.
“I can’t believe we’re giving in so easily to capitalism.” Zafira said sadly, sighing in dismay. “Wendy’s 1, Karl Marx 0. I’m sorry, Marx, we have failed you.” Riya and Darius burst out laughing at her remark and eventually Zafira was guffawing along with them.
…
Soon enough, Justine was bringing out a tray with the orders on and Zafira couldn’t help but rub her hands together in excitement. “Chicken Sandwich, get in my belly! Y’all have no idea how long it’s been since I last ate a burger, my stomach can no longer recall the sweet taste of that seeded bun.” Zafira shook her head sadly as her eyes widened upon the tray placed down on their table.
“Here are 3 Grilled Chicken Sandwiches with those free cookies I promised. Enjoy your meal, guys!” Justine said with a smile, laughing at the faces the three of them made.
“Thank you!” They chorused, almost salivating at the sight in front of them. Justine grinned as she walked away and Zafira and Darius couldn’t dig into their burgers any faster.
“Guys! Wait, I’ve gotta get a pic to put on my IG or Snap! Guys, c’mon, don’t finish the burgers already!” Riya exclaimed in a panic, shooing away their hands and pulling out her phone as fast as she could. Darius and Zafira exchanged glances and rolled their eyes before moving away from the table and crossing their arms in unison.
Riya finally took the picture and settled back into her seat with a smile. “You can dig in now, guys, go on. Oh my gosh, it looks so good, look at those crinkle cut chips! Mmmm…” She murmured as she rubbed her hands together.
“Finally!” Zafira groaned, before she quickly scooped up the burger and took a bite. Her eyes widened and rivalled Darius’ own expression of wonder.
“Oh… My…” Darius whispered, and even Riya looked shocked, something they didn’t often see at a fast food restaurant.
“This is…” Zafira mumbled, staring at her burger in amazement.
“...Art.” Riya finished off. The three of them nodded in agreement before diving back into their meals.
“Truly, no one does Grilled Sandwich like Wendy’s do.” Zafira said around a mouthful, “These chips! They’re so soft and potato-ey! I could eat these forever.” She moaned, washing everything down with a swig of her drink. She let out a loud, garbled burp and Darius and Riya looked up at her in surprise. They shared a funny look before they were once again roaring out in laughter. All of the customers around them looked at them weirdly and a girl sat at the far end of the outdoor eating area rolled her eyes. “High schoolers… just wait until you get into college, y’all won’t have much to laugh about then.” She shook her head, adjusting her headscarf and glasses before going back to using her laptop, labelled with an ‘Ifraah hearts Hayden Young’ sticker.
By the time they were finished with their meals, Zafira sat with her hands on her belly and a weird feeling inside her stomach. “Guys, is it me or are you feeling a bit nauseous too? This burger has done a number on me,” she groaned, “What did they even put in there?”
Darius and Riya sat back looking very content. “It must be you, that burger was…” Darius trailed off, kissing his fingers and throwing them in the air, “Simply beautiful!”
“Yeah, who cares about five-star restaurants anymore?!” Riya stated passionately.
…
It was only half an hour later when the trio had finished revelling in the aftermath of the food and that sumptuous free cookie, that Zafira felt the first gurgle in her stomach. “Uh oh…” She trailed off, eyes widening as her hands reached for her stomach in slow motion.
“What? What is it?” Riya asked, frowning at Zafira’s now sweaty face. “Are you OK? You look really hot…”
Zafira shook her head, hands flying to her mouth as she got up and raced towards the entrance of the diner.
“Zafira!” Darius called out after her. He exchanged a bewildered look with Riya. “What the heck?!”
Inside the diner, the Mercy Park Crew felt a sudden breeze as a blurry figure that looked an awful lot like Zafira rushed past them. “The hell?” Mona said, perplexed. Toby and Ximena watched the figure dart into the ladies’ bathroom and glanced at each other before shrugging and going back to what they were doing. Mona realised that the person looked awfully familiar and even Logan and Colt looked after the figure in surprise.
Zafira, however, paid no attention to her surroundings, and threw the closest stall door open before doubling over and emptying the contents of her stomach in a toilet. Damn, she thought, maybe Wendy’s really isn’t the one. Her stomach clenched once more before she was gripping each side of stall, desperate to not make any contact with the toilet bowl itself lest she contracted something even worse. The acid burned in her throat as sweat and tears rolled off her face. “Bloody… hell…” she coughed out, hastily pulling on the toilet roll to wipe her mouth, “I swear, if I vomit again, I’m gonna scre—” she dry heaved, slapping a hand over her mouth and squeezing her eyes shut. Zafira turned and leaned against the stall wall, breathing heavily. “I definitely have to sue these witches, what the hell did I eat?!” She grumbled.
As she walked over to the sinks, she caught sight of her reflection and groaned. Her face was red with dried tear tracks and her hair looked like a complete mess, “Great!” she mumbled, before washing out her mouth and cupping water in her hands to throw over her face.
Another lady came out of a stall further down and walked hesitantly towards the sinks. “Hey, are you, uh, OK? I heard someone retching their insides out…” She trailed off, as she began washing her hands, watching Zafira carefully in the mirror. Zafira couldn’t help but notice her large hoop earrings that had ‘Hamid’ written in the middle with a heart around the text.
“And you can only assume it was me because of how I look?”
The stranger gaped and blushed, looking down at their hands and scrubbing away furiously.
Zafira laughed. “I’m just kidding, don’t worry. Yeah, it was me. That dumb Grilled Chicken Sandwich must’ve been made with poison or something,” she groused.
“Oh no! Damn, maybe you should sue Wendy’s or something! Can I get you anything, though? A tissue, some water... a lawyer perhaps?” she added with a giggle, “I’m Mics.” She smiled, holding out her hand towards Zafira to shake. Zafira lifted her own hand towards hers but hesitated upon finding them both wet.
She looked up at Mics, “Wet handshake?”
“Wet handshake,” she confirmed, as they laughed.
Meanwhile, in the main section of the diner, Darius and Riya were fretting over Zafira and trying to figure out what to do after rushing after her. “Should we call an ambulance?!” Riya asked, fumbling over her phone and hastily trying to put in her pass code.
“No!” Darius exclaimed, throwing a hand over her phone screen, “...At least, not yet.”
“OK, let’s… take her home? Give her water, a blanket, put her in front of the fireplace, warm her up, but with a cold towel on her head, Netflix in one hand, popcorn in the oth—” Riya began listing off rapidly, marking them off on her fingers.
“I don’t think she needs all of that just yet, Babe. Let’s focus on making sure she’s alive first, and then take her home… Wait, how are we gonna take her home? We walked it here and probably didn’t bring enough money for a taxi or the bus home! Shit.” Darius groaned, rubbing his hands over his face beneath his glasses.
“Those driving lessons would’ve come in real handy, huh?” Riya said sadly, “Hang on, is that Logan over there? We can just ask him, right? I mean, he’s pretty much in love with Zafira, he’d do anything to make sure she was OK, wouldn’t he?”
Darius looked at his girlfriend weirdly, “Really? Like that wouldn’t be overstepping any boundaries at all?”
Riya threw her hands up in defense, “Like all boundaries weren’t dropped when he showed up outside school for Zafira?” she countered, looking at him pointedly.
“...Good point… weird and stalkerish point, but still…” Darius sighed, folding one arm and holding his chin with the other, scrutinising Logan.
Ximena looked up in that moment and noticed the two facing their table, looking at Logan specifically. “Hey, Logan, are those your friends or just some… creepy kids?” She asked, jutting her chin towards the two, confused. Neither of them seemed to notice, too lost in their inner turmoil.
Logan looked in their direction and frowned, “Those are… Zafira’s friends? What are they doing here?”
Riya snapped out of her reverie and noticed the entire table now looking towards them. “Crap!” she hissed under her breath, before shoving Darius towards the crew.
Darius made some incoherent noises in dispute but by the time he was done, he was in front of Logan with Riya’s hand firm on his back. He looked over his shoulder at her, widening his eyes with irritation while Riya gestured towards Logan with her eyes. Darius let out a long breath, pinching the bridge of his nose while turning towards the table. By then, they had all stopped eating and instead focused on the weird pair stood in front of them.
“Hey, uh… Logan, Riya here, is… proposing...” Darius trailed off, trying to figure out which of his eyes to look into and instead focusing on a spot between them. There was a long silence while everyone stared at Darius, waiting for him to continue, including Riya who was watching him with the most bewildered look.
“...Proposing? To Logan? That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard!” Colt broke the silence with a scoff, before he threw his head back, dissolving into laughter, “Who’d want to be with this loser, he’d probably smother you with his teen angst before you could get another word in!” He cackled, shaking his head while wiping at the corner of his eyes, “Damn, that was a good one, I haven’t laughed like that in a long while.”
Mona pressed her lips together to avoid laughing herself and Toby and Ximena side-eyed one another before turning away with smirks on their face. Logan narrowed his eyes at each of them before turning to Colt, “Are you done yet?”
Colt grinned cheekily, “By all means, go ahead.”
Logan rolled his eyes, turning back to Darius, “Go on.”
“Riya… wants-you-to-drive-Zafira-home-because-she’s-sick-and-probably-dying-in-the-bathroom-like-none-of-us-can-drive-and-you’re-just-sat-here-so-like-yeah-anyway-like-I-said-she’s-probably-dying-so-she-needs-to-go-home-you-know-to-get-better-and-recover-from-whatever-the-hell-just-happened-wouldn’t-you-rather-she-die-at-home-instead-of-in-a-Wendy’s-bathroom-like-c’mon-a-Wendy’s-bathroom-of-all-places-how-sad-like-wouldn’t-it-be-a-lot-nicer-if-she-died-at-home-or-something-not-that-I-want-her-to-die-but… yeah. So yeah.” Darius said as quickly as he could in one breath. He coughed into his fist and put his hands on his hips. “Right, my job here is done.” He stated with a nod of his head before turning around and marching resolutely into the ladies’ bathroom. Logan stared after him with his mouth agape, along with everyone else at the table. Riya stared at the swinging door of the bathroom before turning back towards Logan.
Toby looked between the now still door of the bathroom and Riya, “Did he just walk into the—”
“Ladies’ bathroom? Yeah.” Riya interrupted with a sheepish smile. “Sorry if we’re overstepping, but, like, we really wouldn’t be asking unless it was completely necessary, like, Zafira was literally about to die, like, you should’ve seen her face, you know what, she could actually be on the floor right now, drowning in her own vomit.”
Once again, there was complete silence at the table as they all stared at Riya. Mona raised a sharp eyebrow at her, “You know, saying Zafira’s drowning in her own vomit doesn’t make us any more likely to put her in our cars? It does the opposite. No matter how cute she is, I’m really not trying to get my seats stained in Wendy’s… Though, I would be willing to make an exception for Zafira, you know, I don’t want her to die in her own vomit, that would just be too tragic.” She mulled, twirling her straw around in a milkshake.
Before anyone could get another word in, the crew’s phones all pinged simultaneously and they exchanged a tense look before Ximena picked up her phone first. “It’s from Kaneko…” she trailed off.
“Need 4 of you at the garage in 10 mins, got 5 potential buyers lined up for a range of Mercedez-Benz 190 SL roadsters…” Mona started.
“Let me guess, I’m not included in that ‘4’, huh?” Colt rolled his eyes, slouching in his seat while sipping his drink.
“Colt, it’s the same gang we dealt with last time in the Mall, the ones that brought guns, so I don’t want you around them. Come back when the deal is done, until then, I don’t know, go hang out with that girl that you, Logan and Mona can’t seem to stop fighting over.” Toby finished with a shocked expression, “Is that, Boss, poking fun and bantering around? I never thought I’d see the day.” Toby whispered in amazement, adjusting his glasses and rereading the text message. Ximena grinned and looked at the three in question.
Colt seemed shocked upon the last part of the message, his expression not going unmissed by the rest of the gang. Logan and Mona raised an eyebrow, looking at Colt with intrigue before he quickly schooled his features and turned away, clearing his throat. “I could’ve done those deals just as well as the next person,” he grumbled.
“You should count yourself lucky, your dad’s trying to keep you safe and instead sending us into the line of fire,” Logan said with a shake of his head, “Thank your lucky stars.”
“Yeah, yeah, I’ll count them when I see ‘em.” Colt rolled his eyes.
“Really? Well, considering you’re going to be the one driving Zafira back, you should be getting ready to count them when you see her.” Mona said slyly with a smirk.
In that moment, Riya realised that they were all somehow acquainted with Zafira, making a mental note to ask her about them later.
Colt gaped at Mona as he opened and closed his mouth repeatedly, “I-I have no idea what you’re talking about,” he said dismissively, choosing to stuff a handful of chips in his mouth to avoid more conversation.
“Sure.”
Colt narrowed his eyes at her as the rest of the crew stood up, getting ready to leave. Riya stood there watching them leave, confused as to what was going on.
Logan turned towards her and offered a sheepish smile, “I’m sorry, I can’t make it, I’ve gotta head back,” he said while rubbing the back of his neck, “looks like Colt will be the one driving her back, is that OK? You know, if you really want me to take her I can—“
“No, no! It’s fine, wouldn’t want you to get into trouble with your, uh, boss or anything…” Riya said quickly.
“Let us know how Zafira feels, Colt.” Ximena said, patting his shoulder. The crew began walking out, minus Colt, who was left in the booth staring into his drink absentmindedly.
“Yeah, if she’s not feeling any better, maybe we can drop by with some fancy meds and a gift basket or something,” said Toby, raising his eyebrows in excitement, as he slipped into Ximena’s car.
“OK, first of all, I don’t know why you’re excited about that, second of all, great idea, let’s just, us, the Mercy Park Crew, drop by Zafira’s house, where a cop resides.” Mona said sarcastically, as she unlocked the door of her own car.
Toby pouted, “Damn, I forgot about that.”
“C’mon, we’ll have to worry about Zafira later, it’s already been 5 minutes and you know how Kaneko hates it when someone’s late.” Logan said, sliding into his seat and sticking the keys in the ignition.
Back in the ladies’ bathroom, Zafira was surprised to see Darius walk in, who quickly threw his hands over his eyes. “Zafira, you in here? Look if you’re dying on the floor, drowning in your own vomit, then let me know, otherwise I’m keeping my hands on my eyes because I’d hate to look like a pervert or something, ya know?”
Zafira gaped at him before she let out a confused laugh, “Uh, Darius, what are you doing in here?”
“I came to see how you were feeling but also because I just told Logan that he should take you home because you’re not feeling well… so, let’s go, I’d hate for you to to meet your ending here in the bathroom.”
“Wait, what? You asked Logan? Why would you do that? Where did he even come from? I don’t need him to take me home, I can just wal—“ Zafira cut off with a heave, slapping her hand over her mouth and gripping the edge of the sink.
Darius removed his hands and quickly stood next to her, placing a hand on her back. “...You were saying? Look, just let him take you home and then you complain all you want back there, sound good?”
Zafira nodded her head miserably as Darius guided her out of the bathroom.
Thankfully for Riya, she saw Darius and Zafira make their way out of the bathroom before she felt the need to initiate small talk with the brooding Colt.
Darius steered Zafira to the table while she sighed, rubbing a hand over her face.
“Hang on, where’d everyone go? Where’s Logan?” Darius asked, looking around the diner confused.
“Colt? ...Don’t tell me the entire gang was here and we didn’t even know.” Zafira said with a laugh.
“...Wow. You look like you’ve been through hell.” Colt stated, looking at Zafira with slightly veiled worry.
“Thanks, it was really hot back there.” Zafira deadpanned.
Colt laughed and stood up. “C’mon, let’s get you home before you vomit all over my shoes.”
Zafira raised a brow and then leaned forward towards Colt, faking a dry heaving sound.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa! Not on the shoes! Not the shoes!” Colt yelled, jumping back onto the booth and backing away.
Zafira moved back before she burst out laughing, slapping her thigh. “Your face! Phew, that was a classic!” She wiped at the corners of her eyes as her giggles died down.
“You little…” Colt shook his head, folding his arms while glaring at Zafira. The waitress walked over and gave Colt a look.
“Could you please get off the booth, people sit in those.” Justine said before putting a hand on her hip, “I’d hate to have to call my manager out for this.”
Colt quickly jumped down and brushed himself off. “Sorry about that,” he said, coughing into his fist awkwardly, “Right, let’s go.”
He speed walked out of the diner and the trio quickly followed. On their way out, they passed a couple that were sat in the outdoor eating area, with one of them feeding the other that had their eyes closed. “Damien!” The lady called out, laughing while putting her hand over his eyes, “You’re supposed to guess by the taste, stop trying to peek! Stop trying to smell it too!”
“Khadi,” the man called Damien complained, placing his hand over hers and trying to pull it away, “this is too hard, let me be the one feeding you and you’ll see how hard it is!” He laughed, finally managing to free his eyes. He gasped upon seeing the piece in Khadi’s hand. “See! I knew it was a cookie!”
“Yeah, obviously! But you didn’t know which one, so your punishment is not getting the rest of it.” She stated proudly, popping the rest of it in her mouth while Damien watched in horror.
Zafira smiled to herself. Cute, she thought. But her smile dropped when she saw Colt’s motorbike. “Hang on, you’re taking me home on that?” She paled, placing a hand on her stomach, “That doesn’t sound like a such a good idea…”
Darius and Riya watched her with worry, and even Colt frowned.
“I would love to indulge in your car fantasies, which, on any other day, I would absolutely hate, but seeing as we have no other way of getting you home, the bike is the only option… Unless you want me to carry you all the way home.” Colt said, raising an eyebrow at Zafira.
Zafira furrowed her brow and sighed, “Fine, motorbike it is,” she turned to her friends, “I take it you’ll walk it?” she asked.
Darius and Riya nodded, “Don’t worry about us, you just focus on getting home in one piece.” Darius said sympathetically, patting Zafira’s shoulder.
“Yeah, in one piece that isn’t covered in vomit, please.” Colt added, swinging his leg over the bike and pulling his helmet on.
Zafira rolled her eyes and waved her friends off, “See ya later, yeah?” She jumped onto the bike behind Colt, taking the spare helmet from his hands and strapping herself in. “Hey, Colt, pull over to the side of the road when I give you a sign, unless you want chicken sandwich all the way down your back.” She laughed.
Colt rolled his eyes for what felt like the hundredth time even though Zafira couldn’t see. “...You’re, OK though, right? Not thinking about dying anytime soon?” He asked hesitantly.
“Why? Would you miss me?” Zafira teased.
“Of course.” Colt said, without missing a beat.
Zafira’s eyes widened as she slid her arms around his waist, feeling the bike start up. She stared at the back of his helmet in shock, waiting for him to continue.
“Who else would talk shit about Logan with me?” Colt said. Zafira could practically hear the smile in his voice.
There it is, she thought while shaking her head, what were you hoping for, you fool.
Colt began driving out of the diner and down the path he knew a little too well now, trying not to pay attention to how Zafira’s arms were wrapped around him.
It was only halfway through the journey when Colt felt a few rapid taps on his shoulder. He frowned, before realising this was one of Zafira’s ‘signs’ and quickly looked for an opportunity to pull up to the side of the road.
As soon as he’d found a spot, Zafira was all but jumping off the bike and unfastening her helmet. She knew she’d hate to vomit all over someone’s lawn or a public walkway in general, so she pressed her lips together and couldn’t help but thank her lucky stars when she saw a bin sitting a few yards away, running over to the poor, unsuspecting thing.
As she hurled more of her meal out, Colt hurriedly parked the bike and rushed over to Zafira’s side. He blanked once he got to her and decided he would hold her hair back instead of standing around like a lamppost.
With his free hand, he poked about in his pockets looking for any tissues or anything else that would help the situation but fell short and instead chose to rub her back instead.
“Better out than in, am I right?” He said halfheartedly, frowning as she began taking deep breaths.
“Right, you’re probably not in the best position to be speaking right now, I’ll just let you vomit to your heart’s content.” He winced as she heaved once more and then stood up straight.
Thankfully, Zafira had managed to nab some napkins before she’d left so she managed to clean herself up as best she could. “What the fuck was in that burger that’s making me so cough up my insides so violently?! Do I need to sue these little shits.” Zafira exclaimed, putting her hands on her hips and blowing some hair out of her face.
Colt couldn’t help but smile and zone out for a second. How cute.
“Hello? Earth to Colt? Are you in there?”
“Yeah, I was just thinking about how cute you look, you know, all sweaty, hair a mess, red in the face.”
Zafira gaped at him, “I… wha—?”
Colt smirked at her, “Cat got your tongue?”
Zafira narrowed her eyes, “You just wait until you catch me on a good day, ‘cute’ won’t even cover how good I look, and the cat will have your tongue.” She said, flipping her hair as best as she could over her shoulder.
Now it was Colt’s turn to gape at her, but he managed to recover enough to raise an eyebrow and have his charms back intact, “Well then, it’s a good thing that every other day is your good day, huh? Maybe that’s why I’m always so speechless whenever I first see you.” Colt slid his hands into his pockets, pinning her with that mesmerising look.
Zafira’s mouth opened and soon enough a bright pink blush had made its way onto her face. She stared into his dark eyes and found herself captivated, unable to break the gaze. “Are you… flirting with me right now?”
“Maybe.”
“Unbelievable.”
Colt managed to snap out of whatever he was preoccupied with and stared at her, somewhat confused.
“You’re really trying to charm a girl when she’s at her most vulnerable state, right after she vomited up a Wendy’s, knowing that she’ll have no choice but to get back on that bike with you, and have you drive her home where you’ll probably hint at wanting to be invited in.”
Colt gawked at Zafira, rendered speechless. “What?! I never—“
“I can’t believe you, Colt,” Zafira put her hands on her hips, “You’re an incorrigible flirt, just who do you think you are?”
“Whoa, hang on a minute! You’ve got the wrong end of the stick—“
Zafira gasped in horror, her hands flying up to her mouth, “You were trying to give me your stick?!” She almost screeched.
Colt threw his hands up in defence, taking a step back as his mouth dropped open in shock. Then he narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms again. “You’re fucking around with me, aren’t you?”
Zafira presses her lips together, a snort coming out against her will. “Sorry, you’re just too easy to play around with.” She burst out in full blown laughter, smacking her thigh.
Colt sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. “What am I gonna do with you?”
“I can think of a few things.” Zafira smiled coyly.
It was Colt’s turn to blush as his expression went slack. “You’re gonna be the death of me, you know that?”
Zafira laughed, “C’mon, Lover Boy, you still need to take me home.”
…
It was when they were outside the Wheeler residence that Zafira once again felt that familiar lurching feeling in her stomach, “Oh no…” she moaned, unfastening the helmet as fast as she could for a second time that day. This time, Colt was slightly more prepared and he’d already parked the bike and dismounted it.
“Let’s get you inside, I don’t think anyone wants to see a girl projectile vomiting right about now.” Colt chuckled, wrapping one arm around her back and ushering her inside. But it was too late, Zafira felt the familiar burning of the acid in her throat and was heaving out small neutral coloured bits onto Colt’s shoes faster than she could tell Colt where the keys were.
There was a silence after Zafira had stopped hurling out her meal or rather, what was left of it.
“...” Colt blinked a couple of times, almost unseeingly.
“...Guess you no longer want to come in and give me your stick, huh?” Zafira said for no reason, with a weak laugh. She straightened up and pressed her hand to her face, trying to wipe away whatever had stained her mouth.
Colt stared at her for a few seconds before he burst out laughing. Zafira was shocked and slowly joined in, not caring how they must’ve looked to passersby.
“I can’t… I can’t believe you just... brought up the stick again... after you just threw up on me.” Colt said in between laughs.
Zafira’s laughter dissolved away and all she could do was stare at Colt’s shoes sympathetically, rather embarrassed.
“Those shoes, they didn’t cost much did they? This is awful, I’m so sorry.” She moaned, squeezing her eyes shut and dropping her head back.
“It’s fine, nothing that sweet, illegal money can’t fix.” Colt joked with a wink.
“Colt!” Zafira gasped, looking around furtively, “You can’t just say stuff like that out loud!”
“Why, will your dad appear out of nowhere if I say ‘illegal’ three times? No wait, maybe I should rub a briefcase full of a couple million dollars and then say it.” He wondered, putting his free hand on his chin and rubbing it thoughtfully.
Zafira shook her head and laughed, “Will you shut up?”
He grinned as they stared at each other again. It’s really quite easy to get lost in those eyes, Zafira thought, damn.
Zafira cleared her throat and looked away, fiddling around in her pockets to pull out the keys, but not without Colt catching that lovely pink blush on her face again. He smiled contently.
“Is your dad home?”
“No…why, you tryna give me some of that stick action?” Zafira wiggled her eyebrows up and down.
Colt pressed his lips together to avoid laughing. “We’re never gonna let that one go, are we?”
“Nope.” Zafira grinned.
Colt shook his head, “I was asking because I was looking forward to stealing that apple pie.”
Zafira sighed dramatically, “Even in a cop’s household, you can’t let go of your criminal behaviour.”
Colt narrowed his eyes, “You know, for the daughter of a cop, you’re awfully close to us criminals.”
“What can I say? I’m attracted to the dark side.” She joked, removing herself from his hold and guiding them inside. She took off her shoes and suddenly stopped, remembering Colt’s burger covered shoes. “Right, uh, give me your shoes, wait, and your jeans, I think I got those covered too.”
“Wow, you like to move fast, huh?”
“Shut up!” she slapped his shoulder, “You know what I mean!”
“Do I, though? Do I really?”
Zafira put her hands on her hips, “Hand over your things before I decide to shower you in chicken bits.”
“Yes, Ma’am.” Colt grinned cheekily, as he kicked off his shoes and moved to unbuckle his belt, all while maintaining eye contact.
Zafira’s eyes widened, and she rapidly began turning pink once again, “I’ll, uh, go find some trousers while you, uh, yeah.”
“Oh, so now you’re shy. What happened to wanting the stick?” He teased.
“Not another word out of you, Colt.” She pointed at him, with narrowed eyes as she walked backwards. Colt saluted her with a wink.
Once Zafira was no longer within his sight and safely in the bathroom with a change of clothes, she placed a hand on her chest and took a deep breath in. What the hell is going on?! She shook her head and quickly washed up, throwing her clothes in the hamper and changing into a tank top and sweats. She looked at herself in the mirror and halfheartedly tied her hair up in a bun. “Yeah, this is fine. I’m not making an effort for no one, this is… fine.” She tried to reassure herself, dusting herself off absentmindedly.
“Hey, uh, Zafira? Are you really finding me some clothes right now or was this just part of your ulterior motive to get me half naked in the middle of your living room?” Colt yelled.
Zafira’s eyes widened and she hurried out of the bathroom into her father’s room, grabbing the first pair of combat trousers she saw. “Wow,” she scoffed, “how fitting.”
She raced back into the living room with one hand over her eyes. “I’m here, I’m here! Don’t be doing any weird half-naked things!”
Zafira held the trousers out in front of her, keeping her other hand firm over her eyes. When she felt him grab them from her hand, she spun around, giving him her back.
“Let me know when you’re done.”
“You scared of seeing a little thigh, Zafira?”
“No,” she said firmly, “I’m giving you privacy, you know, because I have manners?”
Colt laughed and after some more rustling sounds, he called out to her.
“Are you sure? I don’t trust you…” said Zafira.
“Yes, I’m sure. Why don’t you come over here and check?”
Zafira turned around with her eyes still closed. She slowly opened one and then the other, relieved to find him fully clothed. “Right, I’ll just, throw these in the washer and get them back to you as fast as I can. I don’t know about those shoes though…” She trailed off, looking concerned at the now chicken covered shoes.
“Relax,” Colt chuckled, “I’ll just, wash them… and then… donate them or recycle them somehow. Yeah. Maybe I’ll keep them, you know, as your first gift to me, Zafira vomit.”
Zafira scrunched up her nose, “Ew! No! Don’t do that… wait, what do you mean ‘first gift’?”
“Exactly what it sounds like. Were you not inviting me back here to tell me you have a huge crush on me?”
Zafira’s jaw dropped, “I do not have a huge crush on you!”
“Oh, my bad,” Colt frowned, “it’s just a small crush then?”
Zafira pinched the bridge of her nose, “What am I gonna do with you?”
Colt grinned, “This is beginning to feel a lot like déjà vu, don’t you think?”
Zafira shook her head with a small smile as she gingerly picked up the trousers and went to the utility room after dropping by the hamper. Once she’d started the wash, she slowly walked out into the living room where Colt was now gazing at her family photos. “You’re still here?”
Colt looked up at the sound, “Where else would I go?”
Zafira shrugged, looking out of the window to find the sky bathed in a warm orange, “I don’t know, home.”
“This place feels more like home to me right now…” he murmured.
Zafira bit her lip and looked around, desperate for a distraction of some sort. “Well, what better time to watch movies illegally than with a criminal by your side, right?”
She bounded over to the couch and pulled out her laptop from under some books as Colt watched her, amused. He slowly walked over and sat down next to her, wondering how he got so lucky to have someone like her in his life.
“Thank you.”
“For what?” Zafira asked, turning her head to him.
“Well, for cleaning me up I guess,” he laughed quietly, “but also for giving me… a home of sorts. I can’t believe I’ve felt more love in this household than I have in my entire 20 years of living as Kaneko’s son. Is your dad looking to adopt any time soon?” Colt joked halfheartedly.
“Well, if you stick around, maybe he’ll take you in as his son-in-law.” Zafira said, turning back to the laptop with a small smile on her face.
Colt’s face warmed as his mouth opened in shock, “Was that... an indirect proposal just now?”
“Maybe.” She winked at him, focusing on picking a movie and smirking at his red, shell shocked face.
FIN.

Cosmere update???
alright y’all might remember that at some point this year i read stormlight archive and when i tried to understand Hoid better I got into Cosmere(I made one post abt it so I don’t expect anyone to remember it lmao! Also pls ignore that post it was more self deprecating than I would like!)
Anyway, I am finally done with reading all the books and I am slowly making my way through coppermind and wobs and there’s so much here!!!!!!!!!
I read everything in the wrong order and I knew nothing about Adonalsium or the shards for the entirety of my stormlight read so I made some very wrong assumptions lmao. I’m gonna put everything here cause I feel like it and I also know no one else who’s read the books to discuss this with.
(Disclaimer:It’s 1 am and I’m amped up on painkillers and I know very little compared to all the overwhelming data in this fandom. I didn’t even know what RAFO or WOB meant until day before yesterday.)
The rest of the garbage is under the cut.
Sel:
I could not find an answer to this anywhere? So hopefully someone here knows? Whose voice talked to Raoden in the perpendicularity when he went Hoed??? Was it devotion or like a shadow/splinter???
Are people from Ire the same generation as Elantris era?
Is there a connection between Iri and Ire??? I actually mistook Ire for Iri in secret history and got confused for a bit lmao.
Nalthis:
What happens if someone from Nalthis gives their breath to someone from other planets? No one can take breath but you can just give it? Will it stick just as well???
I did not Vasher or Vienna when I read SA and I didn’t make the connection after I read warbreaker either. That was a big coppermind surprise. I need to reread sa so forgive me if I make mistakes.
I’m guessing Lightsong saw the sequel in the painting but is it possible for him to see Roshar?
We know Nightblood sucks in investiture(?) it seems easier on Nalthis or Roshar but how would that work on Scadrial or Sel or Threnody or Taldain??? Will it just eat the mists? Turn the sand black? Hurt the shades?
Can Nightblood be used in hemalurgy as a spike? What metal is it made of? Does the type of the metal affect the way breath sticks to it(other than aluminium)? Where does the investiture go?
Can you bring the dead back by giving them Returned breath? (Not as a lifeless) Also can one Returned give breath to another Returned dead to bring them back? Can dead Returned be turned into lifeless??? Can a Returned’s breath be stolen using hemalurgy? How would hemalurgy even work on breath?
What will Hoid do if he ever gets his hands on Nightblood?
Scadrial:
Did Hoid use a lifeless to paddle through the preservation’s perpendicularity in Secret History? It looked like he awakened something???
Did Kelsier pin his cognitive shadow to a body? Whose body did he use? Is he using single spike to keep Harmony out? Is he now like a Returned? Is he still mistborn?
Is Ironeyes a fullborn now?
Can nicrosil store all types of investiture? Can Scadrians use the bands to access other investitures?
Can we alloy godmetals? Like Lersium and Atium make Ettmetal??? But what if we combine Lerasium with some other godmetal? Like honorblades(those are honor’s body right?)?
Can someone ascend by burning a lot of Atium or Lerasium?
Can Kandra burn Lerasium? Will they become mistborn if they do? What about mistwraiths?
What happens if Koloss burn Lerasium?
Is it weird that when I read Ettmetal can’t be burnt cause it explodes with water, I thought ‘ooh sandlings can eat it then!’?
First of the sun:
I really really want a book on this planet!!!!
Whose perpendicularity is on First of the sun??? I can only think of Odium tbh. He can see the future. He can get into people’s head(a bit like ruin but we know where ruin is???). Do we know where Odium’s perpendicularity is? Is it on Braize or Roshar? It could be small cause he is so far off.
I also wondered if this could be Hoid’s secret base? He did gather investiture for some reason? Maybe concentrating that on this planet caused a tiny perpendicularity? Can perpendicularities exist without full shards? It would also explain the weird powers???
Taldain:
When will we get full Khriss backstory????????????? I love her.
Threnody:
How did Nazh get off the planet?
Is Evil a shadow/splinter of Odium or Ambition? I thought the shades were Ambition’s but the Evil is Odium’s. Or maybe Ambition is still alive(the power not the person?)
What does Aluminium do to shades?
Roshar:
I’m love Roshar!!!!!!!! Best world!!! The whole world is crabs stacked on each other!!!!!!
So Roshar seems like the closest to Yolen for me??? In one of the wobs brandon said there are tiny sentient dragons on yolen(correct me if I’m wrong) and that there are three sentient races, dragons are one, humans are two and the only other sentient race we’ve seen so far are Parshendi? This is assuming that Cosmere does not have races other than what was on yolen.
Are Sleepless dragons or maybe a type of dragons? Is that what frost meant when they said they observe?
On a related note, what the hell happened to Aimia?
City of shadows-shadows like shades?
Ok so when I first read sa I didn’t know abt shards so I assumed there were three gods Unity, Honor and Cultivation. Odium killed Unity first and then came for Honor(I actually assumed odium honor and cultivation killed unity first??? something abt the reaction odium gave when dalinar ascended??? I’ll find the quote that set me off someday). The sibling is Unity’s shadow like stormfather or nightwatcher. Now I know Dalinar probably changed the shard name to Unity when he ascended like Harmony did?(I am still very confused. I’m hoping a reread will make this clear.)
Is Cultivation the shard from silent divine? The whole disease for power sounds like a boon and curse???
Which other god did humans have before Odium chased them over to Roshar? Odium was going exclusively for shards? Did cultivation come over from another planet in the same system and brought humans with her??? coppermind says honor and cultivation settled on Roshar so was there a third shard? Is that shard related to the sibling?
Is Cusicesh the sibling? I only have the pronouns to go on for this? Stormfather used they and Cusicesh was said to have both male and female faces?
So spren freeze when recorded? Does that mean once their cognitive aspect is fixed they also become fixed? Is that what happened to Cusicesh? It was recorded that they appear the same way in the same place and that just happened?
(Why am I so fucking obsessed with this one damn spren?)
I also want more about Axies and Aimia in general??? Can the Iriali or the Aimians (Sian? non sleepless ones) become knights radiant?
Can parshendi bond with the unmade?
Is there a parshendi shard? Are they all human?
Is kalak shin???(He looks like a child?) (According to a quiz I took, I am a WillShaper!!!)
I wanna know more about Willshapers!!!!!!!
Why does one of the heralds have horns????????or is that just a helmet and im an idiot?
Was Jazrien tanavast at some point???(I know a shardholder can survive a splintering!)
Did Odium make Hoid averse to hurting people? Like the shard on Obrodoi is instilled with hate for Hoid? Can Odium instill a intense hatred of harm in Hoid? Is that what pissed Hoid off or Odium did it cause Hoid was pissed off???
So the waters especially rivers and oceans are one continuous bead because they think of themselves as a whole? So what if we get enough soulcasters? Can we turn the whole of them into something else?
How did Nazh get Shallan’s notes from the ocean? What happens when things sink into the ocean in cognitive realm? Do their beads become a part of the big ocean one or they just lie on the surface?(Does this make sense?)
If origin is honor’s perpendicularity then how did dalinar open it? Like can one shard have two perpendicularities?
What are dawnshard? did vyre kill jazrien with a dawnshard? could they be cultivations body???
Was honor splintered on shattered planes? or city of shadows????? Or aimia???
Are the major human cities so symmetrical cause they are landing spots for the space ships??? After so many years of crem the ship should just look like windblades???
Did eshonai die cause she bonded a spren and her plate and shardblade started screaming and she got overpowered in the highstorm???
Renarin and Lift can heal people together now???
Stormlight looks like breath in cognitive realm? What does mist looks like???????
Cosmere:
Is it possible to become savant on other types of investiture?
Can Adonalsium see future? Did Adonalsium choose to get shattered? Could Adonalsium have influenced Hoid to do what he does like preservation and his plan? Is there a threat to cosmere from outside(all i can think of is another galaxy crashing into it?)? Was the holder of Adonalsium killed?
So one big theme of Cosmere is rebirth so is Adonalsium gonna be born again?
What is the scar constellation? The tear also nags at me for some reason???
Who is Senna???(Preservation mentions them once??????)

anywaY STEVE
a full course meal and full time daD WHAT A DAD Y’ALL BETTER BE STANNING DAD OF A MILLION KIDS STEVE HARRINGTON OKAY
but yeah steve as a boyfriend
I'm starting this from the origins ok cool glad we’re on the same page
so basically all this canoodling between you and steve starts in s2 because in s1 he was a teenager and worry free before he began to bald and stress over god knows how many kids he ended up with bc two were missing and he mainly handled four??? I'm still lost at this point
but yeAH

IM LOOKING AT YOU WILLY WILL
anywAY YOURE LIKE THE FEMALE VERSION OF STEVE OK
y’all have a great sense of hair I'm jealous from imagining it
a couple that slays hair together, stays togethER.
you’ve come across steve a ton of times in the high school, some times were spent on him trying to get your attention bc you really didn't give a shit about anyone??? it was friendLY ATTENTION THO BC NANCYYYYYYYYYY.
and steve was a curious bean and you were a mysterious bean and y’all know the saying; curiosity killed the steve.
but satisfaction brought steve back.
heads up, bonus points for confusion bc steve calls you ‘henderson’ like, your first name?? steve doesnt know her mhm.
and since names are generic as shit steve didn't really click into the fact that you were dustiNS SISTER
like
boi sees you power walking behind dustin when he goes to the wheelers’ house w flowers
the scene goes like this
“HENDERSON?!”
“HARRINGTON?!”
bc im lazy imagine that going on for a good two minutes until steve questions if you and dustin are siblings
“son of a bitch, steVE, WE’RE BOTH HENDERSON, SEEING AS YOU JUST WASTED MY TIME BY SAYING IT ON FUCKING REPEAT LIKE WE DIDNT FUCKING KNOW”
i imagine that to come out of dustins mouth
dustin and steve were one of the best things to come out of strangER THINGS CAN S3 JUST COME OUT NOW PLS ITS BEEN A WEEK BUT IT FEELS LIKE 87 YEARS
you end up following dustin into steves car bc never in a million years would you trust steve harrington w your baby brother.
you take that back when you realise he's actually a damn good babysitter
speaking of babysitters
you didn't think you'd become the mom to steves parental pairing
you didn't think you'd be a mom at all, not until literally you'd be birthing one out
looks like theres a loophole for everything bc you and steve end up doing a lot of domestic shit together when you acc date and imma leave that for towards the end
so yeah you end up getting intertwined with the demo dogs showdown; steve w his bat and you with dustins hockey stick
lucas calls y’all the power couple
you become max’s role model
“that was so badass”
when y’all are back at the byers’, you and steve end up tag teaming to handle the bull that is billy hargrove (loVE DACRE OK)
steve ends up getting beat up as shit and billy uses that spare time to manipulate you. mANIPULATION IS NOT OKAY!!
he has your cheeks squishing between his hand and you up against the wall until dustin tries to intervene bc sisTER.
steve gets up again and pushes dustiN OUTTA THE WAY BC NO ONE HOLDS YOU AGAINST THE WALL THAT IS NOT COOL!!
steve ends up beat up again and max gotta out the syringe bC billy be loco.
you comply with max being the driver to the demogorgon hole thingy bc you stay at the back with steves head lying on your stomach as you press compromised ice packs of peas and whatnot on his face
dustin swore he saw tears in your eyes
you whisper gratefulness bc time spent with steve was fuckign crazy but he actually got himself beat up for you
and no onES DONE THAT BEFORE
steve is special, no one deserves hiM.
ma boi better be loved and appreciated in s3 or I'm throwing hands
when steve is alive again, just in time for the demo dog field trip!!, he ends up being your trip buddy i cackle its adoraBLE
keeps an arm across your front as a proteCTIVE GESTURE I AWE
when all the shit w the demo dogs is over, you show your overprotective side and ask if it hurts too much in some places on his face
“nothing a kiss wouldn't fix”
“shut uP hARRINGTON!”
“dudE THATS MY SISTER”
“may i kiss you miss henderson just for the pleasure of us both and the disgust of your little brother?”
“you may, harrington”
lmao that kiss ends up in an exaggerated make out session just to make it burn
it fails bc bruises on steves face
it hurts a lot
it was a bad idea
you simply press your lips to every part that hurt, making sure to be gentle
bc y’all are a thing, you two become chaperones for the snowbaLL!!
*COUGH* nancy missed ouT *cough*
you start to like her tho bc she danced w dustin and he smiled so iTS COOL.
yknow how time after time and every breath you take came on in the bg for the sweet kids and they slow danced and shit??

the kids look on in horror bc y’all are basically the equivalent of grandparents grinding in the 21st century yikES
SPEAKING OF GRANDPARENTS
When the kids get to high school, you and steve carpool the kids every morning when its chilly and freezing and shit
you and steve have timetables for when the kids will have AV and shit
so you guys still wait for them outside the school
probably read some magazines on how to be a parent of 6 when eleven joins the harrington family.
parenting fails; all six kids somehow being able to be squeezed in the back of steves car
steve’s thoughts: a+ parentinG
you and steve give joyce and hopper a run for their money
speaking of my second ship, the four of you have saturday coffee mornings together at the byers’ to talk about your kids
jonathon would just think ‘wtf’????
steve would let you borrow his faberge all the time
sometimes he'd even do your hair for you
and he turns out to be pretty damn good at that too.
when you’d have a night w/o the kids, he’d take you to the movies and would pull that slick, nonchalant arm-over-shoulder move
you just snuggle more into his side
the kids are acc a few rows behind you
steve knows and so do you
y’all don't mind bc dustin eventually moves forward to take the bucket of popcorn off your hands
thats all i got for now and i hope you're as fed as me!!

he also thinks namjoon’s glasses r one of the sexiest things in the entire world and loves it when namjoon’s got his Thinking Face on and solving a math problem or writing or composing boy Loves It
namjoon has perpetual heart eyes whenever he talks about jimin thinks about jimin looks at jimin someone mentions jimin he hears jimin’s name jimin texts him jimin snapchats him he’s talking on the phone w jimin
kim namjoon = dreamiest bf in the world, the biggest mcfucking romantic who always buys jimin flowers bc he feels extra In Love on a given day and picks him up from class even though he’s going to be late for lab or hasn’t slept in three days and takes him out on surprise date nights to stargaze or smth idk pick ur poison literally the sappiest thing u can think of is exactly what namjoon does alright i don’t make the rules that’s just how it is
jimin likes to kiss namjoon’s eyelids and his dimples and his nose bc those are his favorite parts of namjoon’s face besides the whole thing and he’s sad namjoon doesn’t think that highly of himself :((
god ,, jimin’s thighs make namjoon so weak. So Weak. SO W E A K SO WEAK honestly namjoon has credited his entire gay career solely to jimin’s thighs lol he’s waxed poetic abt them on multiple occasions while completely sober
namjoon really likes it when jimin has hands in his hair take this as u will maybe combine it w the bullet point above idk i can’t tell y’all what to do
also: monolid power couple tf ??
lol jimin had to make the first move bc namjoon was too Scared that he’d be imposing or rude or lowkey abusive or was “forcing” jimin into a relationship he wasn’t interested in
this lasted until jimin pulled his face down with two hands on his jaw n basically yelled at namjoon abt how romantically frustrated he’d been for the past however long they’d known each other and he should either shut up and kiss him or book it & never return
(namjoon kissed him)
he’s also hyper aware of maintaining healthy “relationship boundaries” and constantly proposes stuff like “taking time away from each other so we can redefine ourselves outside a relationship” but they both end up caving after like. a day and a half every time lol
jimin used to hate his height w a burning passion but he now?????he really likes being Small and Tall w namjoon bc hugging his bf and getting carried places when he’s too lazy to walk and burying his face in namjoon’s neck is A+ yes some good shit god bless cuddling w namjoon is truly an experience (x) (x) (x) (x)
jimin loves making namjoon blush it’s his mission to do it at least once a day
sometimes namjoon gets really stressed out and wound up and terribly anxious so jimin pull him to bed and curls up around namjoon’s head like a cat when they’re both lying down and plays with his hair and sings him to sleep
jimin likes it when he can sit in namjoon’s lap and namjoon hooks a chin over his shoulder and wraps his arms around his waist idk he’s a soft child can u blame him
namjoon: [sees his bf]namjoon: put him in the MoMA
lmao they don’t do little/big spoons they have to sleep face to face while holding hands ugh i know it’s so stupid and gross and sappy don’t blame me it’s the minjoon they made me do it
jimin also always steals clothes from namjoon’s closet bc ,,if the hoodie is oversized on his beansprout bf ,,it’s gonna drown him alive and BOY does he Love It
always takes #kimdaily photos for namjoon bc he thinks namjoon is literally the prettiest most beautiful most amazing glowing incredible caring sexy gorgeous ethereal breathtaking showstopping oscar worthy person in the entire world every single white model ever should be grateful namjoon’s not in the business tbh
jimin loves it when they kiss n he has to stand on his tip toes or namjoon has to bend down a little because he can wrap his arms around namjoon’s neck/shoulders and also bc he’s hella gay rip
jimin: [fixes namjoon’s lapel like in a stereotypical romcom]namjoon: [stares down @ his bf w the world’s softest smile n biggest heart eyes]
literally anything jimin does namjoon is like “GOD WHAT THE FUCK that’s the cutest thing i’ve ever seen in my entire life” and then dies (x)
they’ve been dating for a thousand years but namjoon still won’t shut up about his boyfriend lol everyone’s used to tuning him out by now like ok namjoon we get it he’s cute when he’s brushing his hair or buttoning up his jacket or unlocking the apartment door we get it please stop talking thanks
jimin always makes coffee in the morning if there’s enough time and hops up onto the counter to drink his coffee and wait for namjoon to leave the bathroom and join him in the kitchen bc they always trade morning kisses w namjoon standing in between jimin’s legs while looking up @ his bf while jimin’s got hands buried in namjoon’s ridiculous bedhead can they BE any more IN LOVE i honestly don’t know

grab a new lifeline / 1
Chapter: 1; they do not shred him
Series: traditionalist wesen, remixed
Overall Summary: Now that Rolan’'s got one foot in the proverbial door, he’s on the slow(, slow, realllly slow) path to forging a friendship -- or at least an acquaintenceship -- with Monroe The Blutbad. Wesen dynamics will be changing, baby!
Not that the Bauerschwein’s ever taken other factors into consideration, ever. Such as: traditional Wesen; his own housemates being their unpredictable selves; a Grimm, who is also a cop; a serial killer; Monroe’s other friends, both present and past.
Oh, and his Purely Hypothetical Crush blowing up into something a little too real. Life’s a shin-kicker like that.
Chapter Summary: Roland comes home from his walk in the woods, and comes to a revelation about his brief (and awkward) encounter with a Blutbad. His housemates are less than impressed. And a body is found.
Warnings: mention of domestic violence and child abuse (in the past) in the latter half of this chapter; mention of murder
Other notes: i am... winging this; also, i also took liberties with the multiple variation of Taureus-Armenta and my latin is like practically nonexistant but lmao :’); also-also, mild innuendo and sex jokes
The breath is still rattling out of him when he gets home, stumbling up the front porch with now-wobbly legs. Angel, while sitting in such a way on the porch rocker that’ll likely give his back grief later, gives him a funny look. Probably because Roland can't keep the goofy-ass smile off his face for a more than three seconds.
“What’s got ya?” Angel asks before Roland has a chance to escape inside and hide in his bedroom.
“Nothin’,” he mumbles at the door, out of reflex. No reason for it, other than the creeping sensation that he should be embarrassed. Because the whole thing’s ridiculous, he knows, but— “No it’s just—” He stumbles, licking his lips and huffing: getting his thoughts clear. “I… met someone.” He jerks his head in the general direction of where they'd met. “In the woods.”
Which he probably shouldn’t’ve said because now Angel’s got that look on his face. “Ohhhhh?” he drawls, left forefinger tucked into the junction between finger and thumb, right forefinger poised. “You mean like—” Right pointer, meet left vacuum; please get to know each other intimately. “‘Cooling off’ with the luckiest—”
Angel doesn’t get much further than that before Roland thumps his shoulder, and even though he laughs, it hurts like Hell because Roland for sure has razors in his knuckles and the hammering force of… mmm, yeah, a hammer. “No, not like that, you asshole!” Roland isn’t laughing, but he is grinning, cheeks and ears pinker at the suggestion. “You’re fuckin’ nasty, A.”
“Virgin.”
“Pervert.”
Angel tuts, wagging his finger in Roland’s face. “Touché, mon frère; you got me there.” They both laugh at that, too: their own little rhyming joke. And, at least in Roland’s eyes, it’s an affirmation of affection, even when they get in each other’s faces. He’s come to cherish it, quietly, and all the other small phrases and actions, because Angel is hardly ever… honest with himself, never full-on affectionate or willing to settle down for a heart-to-heart when things flare up. Like an argument over what would be the best way to approach an interview or questionnaire or no you should totally go for this vs. no i can’t—
“Earth to Roly-Poly!”
“Yeah.” He slaps his friend’s arm out of his face. “Fuck off, man.”
“You fuck off; I’m chillin’.” Then, contrary, “Who’d you meet out there if you weren’t getting’ it oooon?” Complete with awful, cheesy hip movements. Why’re they friends again?
Now Roland is self-conscious. Again. Because what if Angel freaks out over a Blutbad, even if he doesn't know where they live? “It— uh… Blutbad.”
When his friend’s eyebrows drop into a concerned frown (he doesn't ever do outright fear, too wrapped up in preserving his self-image), so does Roland’s stomach. “I mean I’m alive, so it’s not bad—”
“How.” Rising out of the rocker, he looms over Roland by a full head. Grasping the sides of Roland's face, he asks, “How’re you alive, man?” And although this concern is touching (to the point of being embarrassing because jeez, it’s like he’s never been hugged as a child), he can only blurt out, dumbly, “Wieder.”
“… Ah.” The relief settles over Angel’s face, relaxing it into the usual smile (or near enough, the momentary concern still lingering), dimples deepening. He lets go of Roland’s face. “Veggie-friendly wolfman.”
“Yeah. Rabbit-friendly, too. Cutesy sorta…” He shrugs, eyes to the side because Monroe flashes in his head again: Monroe holding the rabbit; Monroe in woge; Monroe in a more comfortable stance; Monroe walking towards him; Monroe walking away. “… thing.”
The smile turns into a cheeky grin, as though knowing. “Is he?”
“Awhh, dude, no—”
“Have you got like, a thing for dudes who can kill you? Is that your thing?”
“Fuckin’… maybe!”
“Awh, baby virgin has a death-wish crush on a veggie wolfman!”
“I do not!”
Before they can argue any more – Roland’s face growing pinker by the second and Angel’s grin growing wide enough to encompass his face – Winona’s car pulls up. It’s just after half-past seven, and only now are Kenna and Winona coming home. One would think a teacher and administrative assistant would be home sooner than that. “You’re late for dinner!” Angel calls, nudging past Roland to go inside.
“Incredible,” Kenna mutters, “the house hasn’t burned down.”
“It’s probably microwave meals, let’s be honest,” Roland joins in.
“Fuck y’all,” is the welcoming indignant noise to all three as the file in the front door and towards the kitchen/dining room.
“Fuck me running a marathon, I’m starving,” Winona says, immediately swinging open the pantry door and squinting at tins upon tins of beans, corn, baby carrots, baby potatoes, and garden peas. “We got anything else?”
“Pizza,” Angel says as he cranks the oven on.
“Fuck’s sake—”
“Couldn’t be assed buying anything else today so we’re gobbling on shit. Again.”
Further half-hearted squabbling over food washes over Roland as he begs silently for Angel not to bring up the topic of Monroe up anytime soon. Or at all. Neither prayer seems at all likely – having lived a year and six months with the other man, Roland knows what to expect by now – but it never harms to at least try. Kenna, for her part, is quiet. Tired from another day of kids and keeping them engaged, he supposes. He’s not asked yet, and can't find a way that doesn't come off as right-out odd, but he hopes the kids like her as much as she enjoys teaching them.
“So, anyway,” Angel starts, and yes Roland knew it was inevitable but he’s rolling his eyes anyway, praying that Angel is only leading into this with that teasing vibe only to swerve onto something completely different— but he doesn’t. Natch. “Didja hear about Roly’s iddy-diddy crush?”
Winona leans back, mock-gasping, “No!” while Kenna leans forward, elbows on the table, asking, “Really? Aww.”
“Yep – on a Blutbad.”
The girls choke; Winona bangs the table and shakes her head while Kenna splutters, “what! what! are you shitting me! what!” At least it’s perked her up a bit; makes her look lively and less likely to fall face-first and full-asleep into her food.
Then Angel has the gall to be placating, and Roland can only muster up so much energy to glare at him. Panache: Angel’s got it in spades. “Now, now, ladies, it’s A-OK – the dude’s Wieder. Veggie reform.”
Both women scoff; Winona slaps the table again, and Kenna mutters, “Fucking Hell, but a Blutbad? Roly, honey… really?” Her eyebrows scrunch together in her confusion, and she only turns her head when Winona excuses herself from the table. “’m tired, g’night, y’all, Blutbad-fuckers and none alike.” A garbled chorus blesses her winddown-to-actual-bedtime way (“G’night babe.” “I'm not even—” “Nighty-night, lamb.”), and she waves as she trudges upstairs to her and Kenna's bedroom, either to read or translate a book.
Dishes are cleaned and dried and put away, and the remaining three perform their own winddown rituals: Kenna scampers up to one half of the attic, having claimed the eastern half of it as her “study” room (the other half belongs to Leopoldo); Roland drags out his sketchbook from his bedside drawer, along with pencils and pens, and sets to doodling on the fold-out couch he’s got squashed in one corner of his boxy bedroom; Angel watches a How It's Made episode, and he almost considers calling the others down, because they all share a casual interest in this sort of thing, but as it is, he's settled down and far too comfy to move.
Angel considers ignoring the knocking at the door, too, even when they call out that it’s the police, and it is rather urgent. Now, not that his friends have much of a clue, but the memory of a blue boy’s (or blue girl’s) knock is ingrained into his memory – father and mother being the reason that they came in the first place, upsetting and scaring the neighbours (and him) with all sorts of noises. It doesn’t bother him at present, not just because he’s done nothing wrong (might’ve… broke a girl’s heart, once or twice or thrice, but he’s always smoothed it out before) (and not recently, anyway), but because he has nothing to fear. He could probably charm the pants off any person if he were actually human, he’s sure.
Still, there’s no need to irritate, so with great reluctance he heaves himself up off the sofa (that’ll probably end up in the basement in five years’ time), and heads towards the door, noting Roland’s hesitant presence at the top of the stairs before he hides behind the wall again. Nothing to think of, as Roland likes being ‘sneaky’ and an eavesdropper, so when Angel opens the door, he’s not expecting much of anything. Probably the only thing that's ‘urgent’ is that there’s been another string of robberies.
“Evenin’, y’all. What can I do you for?” Off the bat, it sounds ridiculous to hear from his own mouth, but he liked the idea of it rolling off of his tongue so easily. Just some chipper dude enjoying the last dregs of the evening before tuckering off to bed to fetch his sleep before the long work day ahead of him.
At least, as chipper as he can be considering the cop in front of him is a Grimm.
Cold blue, then cold darkness, infinite, stretching long like visible neurons and only his face, his real face is staring back and it is like that old Nietzsche saying, isn’t it?
The cop barely reacts, his face only steeling with realisation. Angel’s only vaguely aware of Roland trotting down the stairs (thumpthump, thumpthump, thumpthump) when the cop – Detective Burkhardt – tells him there’s been a suspicious death in the woods. His partner, Detective Griffin, stands a few feet behind him.
“Oh,” is Angel’s empty reply as he slides in to fill the frame of the front door, trying to block Roland from seeing the Grimm at their door, and keep the Grimm from knowing that there’s more than one Wesen living in the house. They’re all of the harmless variety anyway, so even if he weren't a cop, he’d have no business messing with them. Yet the panic doesn’t leave, only intensifying with the gasp and strangled, “Oh, shit.” At least Roland’s trying to keep his shit under wraps, even if he is now visible and motionlessly panicking under the Grimm’s eye.
Burkhardt, for his part, is acting professionally while the two of them freak out. “Have either of you heard or seen anything?” They both answer in the negative. When Griffin asks how long they’ve been home (suspect list suspect list suspect list), Angel says that he was home since four in the afternoon after finishing up some handywork in the inner city. Roland struggles to remember when he came home.
“I think it was a bit before Kenna and Winni, wasn’t it?”
“Yeah,” Angel agrees, “you came back from…” He spares Burkhardt a glance, “From the woods after your walk.”
“Yeah, yeah.” Roland bites his lip, and adds, mouth running a thousand miles a minute, “I took a walk earlier after we’d gone over some job applications.”
“We?” Burkhardt repeats. Behind him, Griffin shifts his stance, glancing at his partner; the tone was perhaps too sharp for just a simple door-to-door inquiry.
Roland squeezes into the frame, gesturing helplessly at his friend. “He helped me because I get stressed out when going through paperwork.”
Both Wesen are now sure they’ve fallen into the trap of over-explaining themselves: methinks the suspect doth protest too much. In any case, Burkhardt isn’t giving anything away.
“Alright, so what time did you leave, Mr…?”
“Uh, Hoffmann.” Pause, glance at Angel. “Roland.” Clears his throat. “Uh, I think it was… was it around four?”
“No, that’s when I came back, dot-on. You and me went over that paperwork and questionnaire stuff and you went and cleared your head about… five? Ish?”
Another quick look at the Grimm; not a thing from him.
“So yeah, and you came back about seven thirty – wow, you were gone long.”
This time, a trickle of interest on both of the detectives’ faces, and Roland panics.
“I was just walking, man,” he protests, shuffling a quarter-inch further into the house, “I didn’t do anything.”
“Was there anyone else you bumped into who looked suspicious?” Griffin asks, his tone more casual than his partner’s.
“No—” Roland shrugs and frowns. “No-one I thought was suspicious.” A sort-of lie: Monroe The Blutbad sticks out, but… he let the rabbit go. He let the frigging rabbit go, and for fuck’s sake the dude’s Wieder. “I just met one guy in the woods.” He tries for joviality: “I think he’s more the rabbit person than a killer, though.” Of course, it falls flat.
Griffin nods slowly, as if deciding that it’s time to call it a night before Burkhardt can ask any more questions, which is just as well because if he asks anything about their other housemates, there’d be chaos: Winona would break down blubbering under the scrutiny of a police officer even when innocent, and Kenna would stonewall them at every turn; Leo and Elham might be more cooperative, wary as they might be (being no better than the girls, really); Charalampos and Sophia would… well, they might be better with the police, but only if it weren’t posed as some sort of challenge, because they were must stubborn (natch, as Taureus-Armentum).
“Alright, if there’s anything else,” Griffin reaches forward with a number on plain card, “call us.”
“Will do,” is Roland's automatic answer.
Once the two detectives leave, the door is locked and the ground floor is double-checked to make sure the windows and back door are also closed and locked; their other friends have their own keys, so they’ll be able to get in without struggle. The looming promise – “There’ll be someone to come and take your statements tomorrow morning.” – leaves a bad taste in Roland’s mouth.
“Who died?”
Kenna hangs back on the stairs, Winona staying on the landing; it’s likely that she barricaded the bedroom if she ever looked out of the window and saw the cop car, or even so much as heard the word police when they first knocked.
“Dunno,” Angel says, and he instantly sounds more like his usual self – less strung-out, more so-laid-back-he's-horizontal. “We didn't ask, and they just said it was a suspicious death.”
“One of ‘em was a Grimm,” Roland blurts out, and Kenna swears while Winona moans lowly and sags against the wall.
“Oh fuck me fucking sideways, then.”
“Babe,” Winona whines, half-hiccuping, half trying to laugh.
“TMI, hon,” Angel says. Again, lightheartedness falls flat, and dies.
The panicked buzz over the ‘suspicious death’ and the new knowledge of a Grimm blankets them as they retire to bed. The promise of someone on the police force coming over tomorrow to take their statements feels more like a threat, something to trip them up and wrangle a confession out of them.
But it’s not the police, or the death of a person yet unknown, that take precedence in Roland's mind once he’s pulled the covers over his body. It’s the woged face of Monroe The Blutbad, and a rabbit in his hands. More than the panicked dread over the next morning that’s threatening to drag his body into a sleepless, restless night, his head is light with stupid, optimistic hope.
Wieder Wieder Wieder Wieder Wieder--
He dreams of teeth. They do not shred him.

SPN 8x10: “Torn and Frayed”
THE ROAD SO FAR: Dean comes back from Purgatory. Sam hit a dog. Cas is back from Purgatory thanks to Naomi. The demon tablet can tell them how to close the gates of Hell. Amelia Richardson and her breakup with Sam. Samandriel, Crowley’s prisoner. There are other tablets. Sam doesn’t trust Benny. Benny killed Martin. Sam’s upset about it.
(Recap set to “Katmandu” by Bob Seger. The show really loves his music.)
Samandriel had enough time to ask Naomi for help.
Poor hon.
Kermit, Texas.
Sam’s back at his original hotel room.
NO NO, YOU DON’T GET TO SLAM THE DOOR.
“Long drive.”
“Well, I wouldn't have had to make it if you hadn't have hung up on me.”
True.
“Yeah, well, I heard all I needed to hear.”
“No, you heard what you wanted to hear.”
Exactly.
“I sent you that text 'cause I needed you to – to –” To leave.
“What do you want to hear, Sam? That I was wrong? Fine. I was wrong. Okay? But if you'd have just heard me out, if you'd have trusted me, all of this could have been avoided.” YEP.
“Okay, well, then, what the hell do we do now?”
“That depends. It depends on you. On whether or not you're done with him.”
Oh, shut up.
Are you done with Amelia, Sam?
“Glad I made the drive.”
:’) Cas had been healing people in his spare time. Bless his heart.
New assignment from Naomi: find Samandriel and bring him to Heaven.
pfft.
“Damn it, Cas! How many times I got to tell you – it's just creepy!” An angry bear.
“So, who snatched Heaven's most adorable angel?” Oh, come on. Cas is Heaven’s most adorable angel.
“Samandiriel is being held in the general vicinity of Hastings, Nebraska.”
“The general vicinity? That's all you got?”
“Yes, which is why I need your help. It seems this is gonna involve... talking to people.”
Cas’ reluctance to talk to people is me.
“You saw nothing.” Ok, Dean.
It took about a minute before Cas asked for Sam.
Sam thought it was Dean, he was about to throw down.
“So, why are you here?”
“It's not what it looks like. I – I thought you were in trouble – that you had – It doesn't matter. You're okay.”
“I was okay. You know, settled in... content. But here you are. What am I supposed to do with that?”
Amelia was settling.
Huh, Amelia was Sam’s Lisa. Both of them were the women Sam and Dean spent a year off with (and in both cases, Sam and Dean had lost the other brother...but also didn’t know that other brother was alive and out there). Both women then deal with the unexpected return of their Winchester, along with mixed feelings that come along with it.
BACK AWAY, AMELIA.
“Yeah, I care.”
“I care too.”
Oh god.
It’s really hard to watch Samandriel get tortured.
A talking, burning bush.
Geneva, Nebraska.
Cas is riding shotgun.
“Mr. Hinckley? Hi. Uh, we're from the, uh, Geneva Gazette. I wanted to ask you a few questions about your ambush.” Good one, Dean.
“Are you serious?”
“That’s his serious face, yes.”
What cute moment.
“What would you like me to say? That was great? That was... a mistake?”
“I don't know. Both, I guess.”
That was a great mistake. *s i g h s*
“Do you understand I have a life here? A good man that loves me...a man I don't want to hurt?”
“I know.”
“And do you know you're the first thing I think about when I wake up in the morning and the last thing before I go to sleep?”
Do y’all understand that she’s cheated on her damn husband/boyfriend? So much for not wanting to hurt Don. Imagine how he’d feel if he ever found out about this.
“I'm telling you that if you stay, against everything I believe in, I would be with you. But if you leave... don't come back. I can't have you with one foot in my life and one foot out there doing... whatever it is you do. That life of yours I have no idea about.”
Sam never told her about hunting, and he probably planned never to tell her.
“Words will never cover what you mean to me – what you'll always mean to me-“ OKAY. I’m sorry, but I have hard time believing that.
“How about two days from now, around 7:30? I'll be off work then. One of us will be here, and we'll know. Neither of us will be here... and we'll know. Or both of us will be here... and we'll know.” You’re gonna “Serendipity” this?
“Hey, what do you say, this doesn't pan out, we head back to that beer-and-bacon happy hour about a mile back, huh?”
You know what gets to me about that? Dean doesn’t have to ask Cas’ opinion about getting lunch, not really. Cas doesn’t even eat. Dean can haul Cas anywhere and Cas wouldn’t mind at all. It basically sounds like Dean’s asking Cas out on a lunch date.
They found Crowley’s hide out, and it’s surrounded by demons and angel warding.
“Well, you, me, and a demon knife ain't gonna cut it.”
“Ok. I’ll get Sam.”
Ha, Cas.
Fizzles’ Folly. The safe boathouse.
Our disgruntled Prophet.
“I’ll get what we need.”
Dean’s so impatient.
Ah, no wonder. Since Sam’s not around, and Kevin’s working, Dean’s got no one to talk to.
“Your mom's hot. I'm serious, your mom is one sexy –” DEAN SHUSH.
Aww, Benny.
Dean and Benny had a coffee date set up.
“You kicked your mom to the curb?” oohh Dean-o.
“Watching humanity – it never gets old, does it?” No. People watching is fun.
“I got what we need.”
“And I need both of you, as you say, to stow your crap. Can you do that?”
lmao Cas.
Team Free Will back at it again.
RIP demon. Killed by Sam.
Despite being pissed at each other, Sam and Dean do work well together.
RIP demon. Killed by Sam.
RIP demon. Killed by Dean.
Ain’t it good to have back up?
RIP demons. Killed by Sam and Dean.
AAWW NO
“Dean, hurry up. Come on!” HELP HIM THEN, SAM.
And none of them noticed Cas’ petrified state???
WHAT IS IT WITH THAT ZOOM IN, LOL
“There’s an angel tablet.”
There’s so much tension and action, going on.
RIP demon Killed by Dean.
RIP Viggo. Killed by Dean.
“Listen to me closely. I've been there. I know! They're controlling us, Castiel!” Samandriel was the first to tell him.
RIP Samandriel. Killed by Cas. :(
I honestly think Samandriel was gonna die either way.
“Samandiriel was broken. He revealed the existence of what I would die to protect – what any of us would die to protect.” AGAINST HIS WILL.
“I just murdered one of our own to protect a tablet?” Yeah, it’s shitty.
Big yikes on this.
I really forgot how garbage Naomi was.
Did she instruct Cas to thank them too or not?
Oh god, they’re angel-proofing the cabin now?
Can we thank Cas for bringing Sam and Dean together again? Not just physically by bringing Sam from Texas, but also as brothers? Their conversation about Cas sounds like Sam never left at all.
And then Dean remembers Sam wanted out.
“Don't you have a girl to get back to?”
“Yeah. I guess I do.”
You guess? That doesn’t sound very convincing.
“She does make me happy, and she could be waiting for me if I went back. I'd be a very lucky man if she was.” I disagree...but whatever.
“Well, I do know this – whatever you decide, decide. Both feet in or both feet out. Anything in between is what gets you dead.” Dean telling Sam what Amelia told him.
Dean now has to take his own advice.
I know it’s only fair for Dean to drop Benny if Sam was gonna drop Amelia...but it sucks ass and I don’t like it.
“Thanks for the ride.”
“Yeah, man. Adios.”
Nooooo.
Amelia shows up at the hotel room...alone. One of like, the three times I ever really felt bad for her...
But you know what? Earlier when she was telling Sam about how she had a good life and a good man who loves her, she never mentioned anything about her being happy with said good life and man. She sounded happier and more sincere talking about how she thinks of Sam.
So now that Sam didn’t show up, Amelia has to go back to a life and a man that she may not even be truly happy with.
I’ll fully never understand how Amelia was worth quitting the hunting life. I’ll never fully understand what Sam saw in her.
Goodbye, Amelia Richardson.
Sam and Dean chose each other, over Amelia and Benny.
