Melendez x reader - different kind
Tumblr media
Part two:
Sighing to yourself, you looked at the doctor who was still sitting next to you.
“You understand that even doing this surgery on me may not work.”
“I know, but we’re going to do everything we can do in order to make it work.”
You slowly nodded your head.
“Why did you came all this way Melendez?”
He took a small breath and sighed softly.
“Because you deserve a fighting chance, just like everybody else.”
“Your boss made you come here.”
Melendez laughed a little bit.
“Nothing is getting past those keen werewolf senses.”
“I can hear when you lie, the heart rate increases.”
Melendez smiled at you, and he went back to overlooking the people who were milling about by their homes.
“Tell me more.”
You glanced at him.
“Shouldn’t you be rushing me into surgery or something?”
“Well, yes. But right now we can sit for a few more minutes. I’m curious about your way of life.”
“It isn’t much different to yours. We prefer our own communities, we aren’t welcome in the cities unless it is medically necessary. Even then most won’t treat us.”
“Because you’re not human?”
You shrugged a little bit.
“Partially, most are scared, don’t trust us. But it’s because they don’t know how to treat us. We heal so fast, even with everything you’ve put into place there is a chance that it could not work.”
“Then we’ll figure something else out.”
You gave a small nod, standing up as three people walked over.
You knelt down, lowering your head a little bit.
“We have come to bless you before your procedure.”
“Thank you, May the man be present? He is intrigued by our ways.”
The three shared a look, and they nodded their head.
“He may, he is willing to save one of us, we can allow him this as a kindness.”
“Thank you.”
You stood up and he followed you.
As you approached the fire, you smiled at your friend who sneered at Melendez who was following you.
“Leave him Liam.”
“He shouldn’t be here.”
“He has permission, you are my second in command, but the elders outrank you. Explain everything to him.”
“Fine.”
You got Melendez to stand next to Liam, and he watched over everything that was happening while your best friend explained it all.
He was the first person outside the pack to witness such an event, and when it was completed the elders turned to him.
“We wish to place a mark of our ancestors on you.”
“Why?”
“You are a healer, we will place the mark of our healers on you. The healers will offer you their guidance and protect our future leader.”
Melendez turned to you, a little lost.
“It’s your choice.”
He looked around at the pack who were watching him.
All of them relying on him to save your life.
Standing up, he walked over and stood in front of the the elders, giving a small nod of his head with a smile.
They took his arm, and rolled up his sleeve, on his upper forearm they drew a cross with charcoal, and two lines underneath it.
“You must leave it on.”
“I will.”
They mumbled something he couldn’t quite understand and stepped back.
With that you were rushed to the hospital and prepped for surgery as fast as they could and he looked at his arm.
He needed to clean it, but he couldn’t go over the mark, he promised he would keep it there.
So he carefully washed around it.
“You need to clean that off.” Andrews said.
“I can’t, it’s part of their tradition. They wouldn’t have allowed me to bring her here if I hadn’t have agreed to this.”
Andrews sighed.
“They’ve signed paperwork agreeing not to sue the hospital.”
“Smart. But still needs washed off.”
“I can’t wash it off, it’s going to be covered.”
Andrews seemed unconvinced and they carried on bickering until Doctor Glassman shut them both down.
They had to set up a meeting and finally Melendez was allowed to carry on with the surgery with the marking.
“We need to closely watch not only her vitals, but her incision sights. The poison needs to be administered extremely carefully, we do have the antidote to it but only enough for for one shot at this.”
Everybody nodded, and Melendez picked up the scalpel.
“Let’s see if we can return this wolf to the wild.”
It was a slow procedure, everything had to be done carefully and to a strict regime.
Even with the poison affecting your body, it was still hard to hold off your healing process, but it was helping.
“It’s messier than we thought.” Melendez said.
“We can create a new one.”
Shaun explained his reasoning behind this and how it could be done.
“We can’t keep her on bypas for too long, we need to do it quickly, but it has to be able to withstand the pressure of her changing.”
They weren’t sure if it was going to work, but it was a solution for your problem, and it would fix your heart.
So that’s what they did, and you were rushed into recovery.
Your father stood over you, eyeing up Shaun.
“There’s something wrong.”
“There isn’t, she’ll be fine and awake soon.”
“No. (Y/N) should have already woken up. A werewolf immune system is stronger than ours. It would have dissolved the anything in her system by now.”
Your father walked over, staring at you.
“Her heart sounds stronger.”
“Her body will need time to adjust to the antidote.” Melendez said.
They kept a close eye on you until you woke up, and did some checks before confirming you were fine, and that you could leave at the end of the week.
“You can’t be changing any time soon.”
You looked at Melendez who was stood near your bed.
“You kept the mark.”
He looked at his now empty arm.
“How did you know?”
“My father told me. Thank you.”
He smiled at you, setting your chart down.
“I know you have a faster healing rate, but I still need you to take it easy, and since it’s hard for you to come to the city I’ll be doing your check up at yours.”
You shook your head.
“It’ll be fine, thank you though.”
You scribbled on some papers he had handed you and handed them back.
“You are a good person.”
With that, you left.
You began preparing for the next part of your healing journey, and it was nothing you could expect a human doctor to help with.
This had to be done by you.
It was something you needed, after another week and a half of bed rest, you received the blessings from the elders and looked at your pack.
“I will return.”
“We believe you will.”
You made your way towards the entrance of the forest and took a deep breath.
“You’ll get yourself killed!”
“You cannot go!” Liam snapped.
You turned around, looking at Melendez.
“This is something I have to do, to determined if I am still worthy in the eyes of our ancestors.”
“It’s a sure way of getting yourself killed, you’ve just undergone heart surgery.”
“And this is why it has to be done now. The trail will last for a week.”
He sighed heavily.
“I can’t let you do this.”
“You have no say now, this is our tradition.” Your father spoke.
Melendez didn’t know what to do, he didn’t want to let you go, it wasn’t safe.
But who was he to stand in the way of centuries of tradition passed down from generations.
He didn’t like the idea, and he didn’t want you to get hurt or injured up there alone.
But by the time he had thought it all over you were gone, and he was left with your pack who were just as worried.
“Werewolves cannot go, there is nothing about humans.” The elders mumbled.
Melendez looked at them, and they have a small nod.
“Follow the trail.”
With that, he rushed after you, phone in hand so he could call in sick so he wouldn’t have to worry about work

and round three comes to an end and five of our contestants will leave the challenge. let me remind you that calculations on this round were firstly defined by the difference between the romance level before and after the date with the bachelor; and secondly, in case of tied points, by the level of friendship.
time to say goodbye to journey vatore (@aresember), gloria melendez (@natiesims), klara fay (@nugsims), dru briney (@noeyinthemist) and harvey lynx (@simgrump-main). it was such a roller coaster of funny chaos, but having them in this challenge was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! thank you for sharing your sims with me! let me know if it’s okay to keep them in my save for future use in my legacies 🙂
on other news, how will round four work?
round four will be named: «meeting the 'famous' parents»;
we'll return to the rule of full autonomy and no forced interactions;
we will divide the contestants into 2 households. the bachelor + his parents (leo harper and judith ward) will receive in their house each contestants household for 2 sim-days;
the 2 sim-days will be divided in 2 moments: from 10am - 15pm, group travel to sulani (household 1) or komorebi (household 2); and from 16pm - 23pm in club mode;
club mode means that contestants and bachelor will be in club meeting mode. the club has preference for romantic interactions between its members and has a very flirty vibe too;
polyamorous trait will be given to ALL contestants and the bachelor during this round to avoid jealous drama;
by the end of round four, 3 contestants shall leave;
the calculations will be based on the sum of the friendship and romance levels. the three contestants will less points will abandon the challenge.

Mun is over 20. Please, no minors.
I'm non-selective. I'm down to RP with anyone, so don't be afraid to drop into my inbox/tag me in stuff! My style can sometimes lean a bit towards the lengthier side, but I don't expect anyone to try and match that.
I don't roleplay outside of the Resident Evil universe. I'm up for anything within it, though! I enjoy the games, the comics, the novels, etc. alongside the Anderson flicks.
I'm OC & AU friendly. I love to hear about 'em, too, so please share with me!
I multiship, so I'm open to pairing Rain with various characters. Lemme know if you're interesting in shipping.
I like having multiple threads. If you want to start a new thread with me while we already have another going, feel free!
If you see me already RPing with somebody who has the same muse as you, that doesn't mean I'm not interested in interacting with you! Everybody brings something unique to their depictions.
You'll find blood, gore, & violence here, so be warned. It appears both in my writing and occasionally in my icons or reblogs. It'll never be anything extreme, though.
I don't do NSFW stuff. My ace ass simply can't haha.
Although I also write for the Rain clones, I always default to the OG Rain when replying to asks/tags. So if you'd like to interact with Good or Bad Rain, please specify!
There might be times when I'm slow at replying. I promise I'm not ignoring you. I've just got other stuff going on too, y'know? And on that note, I don't expect fast replies from anyone. Take your time!
Starter memes can be found here!
Starter calls can be found here!
If you have any questions or anything, feel free to ask!

Rain comes from the 2002 film, Resident Evil. Alongside it and various headcanons, my interpretation of her is also loosely based on the novelization, Resident Evil: Genesis. (I do have a lot of problems with that book and how she was written in it, though). The clones come from Resident Evil: Retribution and take loose elements from the novelization of the same name.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Name: Rain Melendez Ocampo
Eyes: Dark brown. However, I do occasionally make them partially light blue after infection.
Hair: Dark brown
Pronouns: She/her
Age: Dependent on verse.
In the Anderson flicks, twenty-three at the time of the Hive Incident in 2002.
Also in the Anderson flicks, her late twenties to early thirties in Extinction through to The Final Chapter, which ends in 2012.
In the game universe, in her early twenties during the time of the Raccoon City Incident in 1998.
Height: 5'4"/163 cm
Sexual/Romantic orientation: Homosexual/homoromantic
Occupation:
Former LAPD police officer.
Former paramilitary commando for the Umbrella Corporation.
...Currently working to screw over her last employer and aid survivors.
In the game universe, after Raccoon City, I'll often put her in the BSAA. Or some other organization that fights bioterrorism.
Personality: Rain is tough, intimidating, prideful, and full of tenacity. But beneath that rough exterior is a caring person looking to do good and help others. If sacrificing/putting herself at risk means saving someone, Rain isn't likely to hesitate.
She's fiercely loyal and protective toward friends, none of whom are safe from her ribbing or attempts to rough around.
Often, Rain comes off as crude and/or blunt since she isn't very careful with her words. If she has an opinion, she probably won't refrain from telling you. Vulnerability, however, isn't something that comes easily to her. She tends to simply close herself off with an "I'm fine."
You might find that she has a slight temper... Perhaps more than slight. Most call it hair-trigger. Her anger usually comes and go in quick bursts.
Rain was heavily infected by the T-virus and received a dose of the antivirus when it should've been far too late. She should've died. Instead, she woke up a day later in an empty hospital, having been put under quarantine and subject to various tests. She left, unsure of what exactly happened to her.
Some other stuff:
Rain tends to enunciate a lot more when she's super pissed off. She'll speak all slow and deliberately. For example, while she normally drops the G in words such as "something" and says "somethin'" instead, an angry Rain doesn't do that.
Mind you, she does look pissed off most of the time, but that's just her resting face.
If she's especially prideful about anything, it's her marksmanship. For the most part, it isn't misplaced, either. She's a damn good shot.
On the topic of guns, Rain is pretty knowledgeable about them in general. Firearms are a huge interest of hers.
When she worked at Umbrella, she was a part of a unit known as Sanitation led by Commander James "One" Shade. Other teammates included Chad Kaplan, Olga Danilova, Alfonso Warner, Vance Drew, and J.D. Salinas. All of these people died right before the outbreak in Raccoon City.
J.D. was Rain's best friend. She partially blames herself for his death
When she was a part of Sanitation, she'd use a Heckler & Koch MP5K and a Springfield Armory M1911A1, which are guns she's still rather fond of.
She was born in New Jersey and lived there until the age of twelve. That was when her family moved to California, where she stayed until receiving a job offer from Umbrella.
Her family consisted of a father, an older brother, and a dog.
She speaks Spanish as a second language.

Name: Rain Melendez - AKA "Bad Rain"
Eyes: Dark brown. There's a faint red haze when her retinal implants are in use.
Hair: Dark brown
Pronouns: She/her
Age: Dependent on the verse.
In the Anderson flicks, in her early twenties during Retribution, which takes place in 2012.
In the game universe, she'd realistically be alive sometime between the Raccoon City Incident in 1998 and Umbrella's end in 2003, during which she be in her early to mid-twenties. She could survive past that, though.
Height: 5'4"/163 cm
Sexual/Romantic orientation: Homosexual/homoromantic
Occupation: Security operative for the Umbrella Corporation.
Personality: Rain is programmed to be ruthless, tough, and intimidating. She's cold, blunt, and matter-of-fact, typically to the point of heartlessness. Her care for others is incredibly minimal, and most of her loyalty lies where it was programmed to be.
When she's given orders, Rain follows them without question or hesitation. Vulnerability and weakness are something she very scarcely allows herself to show.
She's stubborn, being somebody who fights until her absolute last breath. There's also a fair amount of cockiness in her.
While not impossible to form a bond with her, it certainly isn't easy.
Rain is a clone manufactured by the Umbrella Corporation. She was created to protect one of their testing facilities. More specifically, Umbrella Prime, which is located underwater in Kamchatka, Russia.
Some other stuff:
Following the destruction of Umbrella Prime, she was presumed to have been eaten alive by a horde of Las Plagas Undead (basically T-virus zombies with the intelligence to handle firearms/drive vehicles) after plunging into the depths of the Arctic Ocean. This could be changed in threads, though.
Following a self-injection of the Las Plagas parasite, Rain gains superhuman strength, accelerated healing, and far higher pain tolerance. This happens right after the destruction of Umbrella Prime, so it wouldn't apply to anything taking place before that... Or where it doesn't happen.
Also after that incident, she's started experiencing a deep-seated unease around deep bodies of water. Not something she'll admit to.
Rain has retinal implants that allow her to quickly identify people and bioweapons in Umbrella's database via facial scan. They also feed her direct orders from her AI superior, the Red Queen.
While Rain knows that Umbrella manufactures clones, she doesn't realize she is one.
Her weapons of choice are a Colt M4A1 (with an underbarrel M203 grenade launcher attached) and a SIG P226R.
She also speaks Spanish as a second language.

Name: Rain Ocampo - AKA "Good Rain"
Eyes: Dark brown
Hair: Dark brown
Pronouns: She/her
Age: Dependent on the verse.
In the Anderson flicks, in her early twenties during Retribution, which takes place in 2012.
In the game universe, she'd realistically be alive sometime between the Raccoon City Incident in 1998 and Umbrella's end in 2003, during which she would be in her early to mid-twenties. She could survive past that, though.
Height: 5'4"/163 cm
Sexual/Romantic orientation: Homosexual/homoromantic
Occupation: (Programmed to believe she is an) environmental activist.
Personality: First and foremost, Rain is good-natured. She's always looking to do the right thing, help others, and stand up for what she believes in.
Although she prefers non-violence as a solution to problems, when it comes down to the wire, Rain will do what it takes to help somebody in danger. There's definitely a protective side to her. She's a quick learner and brave.
Most people would probably describe her as an ever so slightly awkward, quirky character. Often, she's somebody who will speak without thinking her words through.
Rain is a clone manufactured by the Umbrella Corporation. She was created as a civilian to be placed into a test simulation to demonstrate the capabilities of Umbrella's bioweapons. However, rather than dying like she was meant to, she survived the simulation.
Some other stuff:
Rain died in Retribution after getting knocked clean off an elevator platform by an Uber Licker, which is essentially a licker the size of a tank. She snapped her neck upon impact with a wall. However, that could be changed in threads.
She's a vegetarian. She doesn't enjoy the taste of meat products, nor the idea of eating animals.
Unlike either of her counterparts, her full first name is Larraine, which she does not enjoy being called.
Rain is entirely unskilled with guns. She's not particularly fond of them, either. Two of her programmed memories include campaigning for gun control and marching against the NRA.
She enjoys particularly outdoorsy physical activities such as hiking, biking, and climbing.
She also speaks Spanish as a second language... As well as Portuguese as a third. And a conversational amount of ASL.
Rain has three dogs. Two pit bulls and a Rottweiler.
Outside of her dogs, her family truly never existed, but she believes that she grew up with three brothers and a mother in the suburbs of Raccoon City.

A grieving New Jersey mom, whose 11-year-old daughter is said to have taken her own life in a school bathroom, is demanding to see security footage to prove the pre-teen was alone at the time. 
Elaina LoAlbo is still waiting to see critical evidence related to her 11-year-old daughter, Felicia LoAlbo-Melendez’s unexpected February death, which investigators have ruled a suicide. 
“Over the last eight weeks they have refused to show me any video tape footage, and several emails in reference to the school about the bullying,” LoAlbo said. 
“I have asked to see the scarf [found in the bathroom], the security tapes and I’ve been locked out of her school [online] account since before she had even passed.”
LoAlbo said she fears someone else could have been in some way involved in her daughter’s death.
Felicia LoAlbo-Melendez, 11, took her own life in February, according to police.Facebook/Layna Marie
“And until I see footage proving otherwise, that will remain in the forefront of my mind,” she added.
“Show me the tapes and prove it to me … If I saw the tapes, 100% it would help me get some kind of closure.” 
LoAlbo admitted the pre-teen’s death came after rounds of vicious bullying from her peers, which had prompted her to write a number of emails requesting help from the school and its counselor, whom Felicia was visting regularly with.
LoAlbo said her daughter, who only turned 11 in December, had been bullied “for many years,” and she has had to personally call another students’ parent to ask them to help the bullying stop.
“They were telling her to ‘unalive’ herself, they called her all kinds of derogatory names, put gum in her hair, stole from her,” she recalled. 
Felicia LoAlbo-Melendez and her mother Elaina.Facebook/Layna Marie
Felicia punched one student who told her to “unalive” herself, LoAlbo said. 
“But even then, there was never any repercussion from the school, no follow up. Nobody called me, nobody talked to me about that incident,” she went on. 
LoAlbo said Felicia was set to be switched to a new class after winter recess to get her away from the bullies, but it never happened.
LoAlbo charged the school had “tried to cover up” her daughter’s bullying in the past, and then tried “to cover everything else up when it comes to the details of her passing.”
According to her mother, Felicia was the victim of constant bullying.Facebook/Layna Marie
She added her husband, Felicia’s father, died in late January just weeks after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Felicia had been undergoing therapy before and after her father’s death, LoAlbo said.  
But LoAlbo said “there were no signs” her daughter was experiencing suicidal thoughts. 
“There was no Google searches or anything referencing self-harm,” she said. “You’re not going to learn to tie a noose without some kind of Google search.”
She said her daughter had never harmed herself in the past.
“A kid doesn’t just doesn’t hang themselves in the bathroom without ever contemplating suicide. That’s just not how these things happen,” she told The Post. 
Felicia and her mother Elaina before she lost her daughter and husband within two months.Facebook/Layna Marie
A student at F.W. Holbein School in Mount Holly, New Jersey, discovered Felicia’s unresponsive body around 1 p.m. February 6, the prosecutor’s office previously said. 
The office described how she had been discovered “after hanging herself in a closed” bathroom stall. She was ultimately rushed to a Philadelphia hospital, but could not be saved. 
Felicia died two days later. That Friday, investigators told her mother “they thought it was suicide and she had a scarf around her neck on the floor,” LoAlbo recounted to The Post. 
The Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office determined Felicia had committed suicide and died of “complications from hanging.” 
Elaina says she will get closure if she can see footage proving her daughter was alone when she tragically died
Last week, the prosecutor’s office cited surveillance footage in reporting Felicia “was alone in the restroom when this tragic action occurred.”
Several school and school district officials did not respond to The Post’s requests for comment throughout the day Monday. 
But a spokesperson for the Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office told The Post the video would soon be released LoAlbo.
“It was previously communicated that we would accommodate her request to view the school surveillance recording at the appropriate time, but not while the criminal investigation was ongoing,” the spokesperson wrote in a statement.
“The investigation has concluded, and arrangements will be made in the near future for Ms. LoAlbo to be shown the footage.”
If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts or are experiencing a mental health crisis and live in New York City, you can call 1-888-NYC-WELL for free and confidential crisis counseling. If you live outside the five boroughs, you can dial the 24/7 National Suicide Prevention hotline at 988 or go to SuicidePreventionLifeline.org.

i might end up making a side blog dedicated to the good doctor
anyway here are a few reasons i love it so much.
yes the autism representation is good. there are some incredibly subtle representations of autism that are represented that aren't brought up even in autism centric spaces much and that fact makes me incredibly happy (for example, i don't see a lot of discussion about shutdowns, but as someone who experiences shutdowns more than meltdowns, seeing an autistic character shutdown because he's overstimulated, then see another character refer to it as "falling apart" made me feel represented because it can feel like you're falling apart, and from the outside, it looks like you're falling apart). like at the very least i feel represented.
i swear to god lea has adhd. shaun and lea give me audhd couple vibes and i love it. at the absolute least, lea is definitely not neurotypical.
the good doctor made me want to pursue a medical career again. not just "oh, something like bioengineering where i'd be working in the medical field would be super fun!!" no. i want to get a bachelor's in biology, go to medical school, and do a residency in either neurology or surgery (possibly something else, i'm not entirely sure yet). if i can get some structure in my life and find a place to live in salt lake city (where they have a university that doubles as a med school and a teaching/research hospital) i can absolutely start the journey to being a doctor at an actual hospital as soon as next fall.
im learning about actual conditions i didnt know about. did you know theres a real congenital deformity of the spinal cord that leads to your spinal cord being split in half at a certain point, leading to what basically results in two functional spinal cords? or that your heart can develop outside the ribcage, and protrude outside the chest? or that just getting a surgery, no matter how sterile the operating room and surgical tools are, can give you sepsis, because cutting you open can leave you vulnerable to bacteria regardless of sterility of the surgical environment due to the bacteria inside your body (risk goes up depending on the surgery; for example, your risk for sepsis goes up if you get surgery on your intestines for obvious reasons)?
theres what i perceive to be a realistic balance between personal experience/empathy and objective medical knowledge when it comes to the doctors in the good doctor. for example, morgan not wanting to fuck up a patient's chances of playing violin in the future, and this resulting in the patient's arm getting amputated. on the other hand, shaun's objectiveness means in that same situation, he was trying to convince morgan to do testing, something she was hesitant to do. i think that experience helped morgan find a middle ground between being empathetic and being practical about what tests and such she needs to do in the future; as melendez tells her, one day, she will kill a patient. all doctors eventually do; mistakes are made, surgical errors are made, signs and symptoms are missed, things get misdiagnosed, and a patient dies. i feel like that's a very grim reality in medicine that people don't like to acknowledge (especially people who practice medicine) and adds some realism to the good doctor that isn't seen much in shows centered around anything medical. it's something i'll have to accept if i do decide to go into medicine. yes, the goal is to save people; but i can't save everyone, and in my career i will almost be guaranteed to make mistakes that result in someone dying. the earlier i can accept that (before residency is best), the better off i'll be as a doctor, no matter what specialty i decide to go into.
most of shaun's colleagues are super accommodating when it comes to shaun's autism. it's just a detail i appreciate. they also figure out what helps him out of meltdowns/shutdowns fairly fast, which is another thing i can appreciate.

So I binge watched all 5 seasons of The Good Doctor in 10 days while recovering from tonsillectomy. Hooo boy it was a ride. I really love this show, sure it has some issues, but as a neurodivergent woman, I really really liked it. 🥰
I had seen first two seasons before, but watched them again. I love how Shaun and Lea's relationship progressed, how Shaun is always learning and evolving, how his relationships with his coworkers have blossomed. Oh and I loved almost all the medical stories. This is gonna be kind of like word vomit, sorry, but gotta get my thoughts out.
Season 1 is a classic, introduction to characters and the world, ending with Dr Glassman getting a really bad diagnosis, but Shaun pushing himself to find if it's the right one and saving him in the process. Also all the things with Lea. Hate Dr Melendez and Dr Andrews. Love Dr Kalu and Dr Browne. Shaun had a really bad childhood and it makes me so sad 😐 But also pretty relatable?
Season 2 intoduces Dr Lim, Dr Reznick, Dr Park and Dr Han. It's kind of heavier season? Dr Kalu has to leave, Dr Han is a fucking PRICK🙂 and I am glad Dr Andrews came to his fucking senses and protected Shaun. People are still questioning if Shaun should be working there during this season and it's.. sad.
Lea and Shaun become roommates, OMG they were roommates!!😳😳 I don't like Dr Reznick, she kinda reminds me of Haley from Stardew Valley. Dr Lim and Park are really nice. Melendez and Lim become a couple and it's SO CUTE! I love Claire's support for Shaun. ❤️ It was heartbreaking to find out about Dr Glassman's daughter though 😭
Season 3.. it's really good. Might be my favourite season so far? We see Shaun pursuing a relationship with Carly, getting closer and more comfortable with eachother. Eventually they break up and Shaun tries to tell Lea how he loves her, but she has insecurities and doesnt want a relationship. Shaun struggles with losing both Carly and Lea 🥺 Claire struggles a lot this season, Im glad that Lim and Melendez are helping. Reznick being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis is very fucking sad. She is SO driven to be a surgeon, but she probably has to give it up.
But my favourite part was probably the two-parter season finale. THE ENDING DESTROYED ME 😭😭😭😭😭😭 Melendez dying came out of NOWHERE, I was so hoping for a magical last minute cure which never came... I really loved Melendez this season and how he helped Claire. Also this taught me how you should never ignore "small" injuries, it's not worth to die for. They could've had the romance of the century 😭❤️
I am really glad the ending helped Lea realize how much she loves Shaun. Also Dr Park with that boy stuck under a bar that fell during the earthquake, slowly dying.. LET'S JUST SAY THERE WERE A LOT OF TEARS THIS SEASON 🥲🥲🥲
Season 4 starts with coronavirus two-parter opening. It's super sad and I am actually kinda surprised, that only Dr Lim ended up with PTSD. This season introduces us to new residents that Reznick, Park, Shaun, Claire, Lim and Andrews have to teach. Loved Olivia, but I was sure she was gonna quit. The other guy didn't really resonate with me, but it made me sad how they kinda made fun of polyamory. Dr Allen.. she's nice, but I don't really like overly religious people. Dr Asher Wolke, however, is my FAVOURITE?! after Shaun and Claire and Melendez? His story really resonated with me, him leaving his family and religion to be himself. Oh and it was so sad when he lost his freaking FIRST PATIENT?? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Him continueing CPR even though he knew it was futale.... Made me cry so hard.
Dr Reznick giving up surgery was really sad, I felt for her so much.
Meanwhile, Lea and Shaun's relationship is blossoming and turns out Lea is pregnant! I'm glad they showed us the option to abort. I kinda spoiled myself though 💀 Was scrolling through episodes list and saw about grief and well, that happened, they lost the baby. I don't EVER want kids myself, but they portrayed the loss very well and I felt a lot of empathy for both Lea and Shaun.
I really loved the season finale two-parter in Guatemala. To see how life is there, how privileged I am to have FREE healthcare. I knew Lim and that guy were going to get together, but I didn't really like it. I really liked how Lea at first refused to hold that woman's baby but then did and also helped all night. I think that really helped her deal with grief. Park and Reznick getting together was.. surprising but I like it? CLAIRE LEAVING WAS SAD :( We lost Melendez last season and well, at least Claire didn't DIE, but it was sad to see her go, especially since she is Shaun's best friend. Lea proposing was very surprising but nice!!
Season 5, final season for now, I didn't actually like THAT much? Maybe like 2nd best from the bottom. I hated, that The BITCH Salen posed as a PATIENT with ADHD and then turned out to be buyer of the hospital. I hated her guts, so much. Also hated Reznick and Andrews for a while, but at least they made up for their mistakes. First half of the season was just stressing me the hell out. Also Lea and Shaun fighting 😐 and having trouble deciding on the wedding. The Shaun Show and The Lea Show were very nice episodes ❤️ I am glad they finally married in the final episode, they teased us so much!
AND I AM FREAKING OUT ABOUT DR LIM AND THAT NURSE, GUYS PLS DON'T BE DEAD, YOU CAN'T DO THAT TO ME AFTER MELENDEZ WHICH I AM STILL NOT OVER WITH!!
That was a lot, you're a hero if you read this far, thank you! ❤️ I can't wait for the next season to break and mend my heart even more🥰❤️

@apileofgoodthings11 sent me a message with book asks in it and I'm gonna answer it here.
I've already answered 1 so check that out here.
6. what books have you read in the last month?
So many, Pile, you know this! Why do this to me?! The Doctors Blackwell by Janice P Nimura; This is Our Story by Ashley Elston; Dustborn by Erin Bowman; The Dark Matter of Mona Starr by Laura Lee Gulledge; We Were Restless Things by Cole Nagamatsu; I Think Our Son Is Gay vol 2-4 by Okura; The Dark Forest by Cixin Liu; Medusa by Jessie Burton; Playing the Palace by Paul Rudnick; Chef's Kiss by Jarrett Melendez; Solo by Kwame Alexander; This Golden State by Marit Weisenberg; Norroway vol 1 and 2 by Cat and Kit Seaton; Hide by Kiersten White; Deadly Class vol 12 by Rick Remender; Vow of Thieves by Mary E Pearson; The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen; A Little Bit Country by Brian D Kennedy; Less by Andrew Sean Greer; Even Though I Knew the End by Cl Polk; Onion Skin by Edgar Camacho; Me and Sam-Sam Handle the Apocalypse by Susan Vaught (autistic MC!); A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson; The Fountains of Silence by Ruta Sepetys
15. recommend and review a book.
From the above list because they are the freshest in my mind, I'd highly recommend Me and Sam-Sam Handle the Apocalypse and The Fountains of Silence by Ruta Sepetys. Despite the title, Me and Sam isn't about the apocalypse but an event that feels like this, hyperbolically, to the main character. But we see an autistic girl make a friend, stand up to her bullies, save a bunch of people, show empathy for others, and be happily autistic. Truly amazing! It is a middle reader, so not for everyone, but I greatly enjoyed it. The Fountains of Silence by Ruta Sepetys is about Spain under Franco's regime. It starts in the 1950s where we meet all of our characters in their late teens, early twenties and we see their lives unfold and twine together. Then in 1975 after Franco dies, they come back together in a surprising way. I cried so hard through the last part of the book, but it was well written, the characters are so strong and I rooted for all of them.
19. most disliked popular books?
Hmm, well I usually avoid reading popular books to avoid this. For example, I'm currently not reading Where the Crawdads Sings or any Colleen Hoover because everyone is blowing up about them and I can't trust the opinions of such a large swath of the population.

'Jesus: Origins' isn't super but has a hero's heart: Review - Orlando Sentinel
Christianity tells us that Jesus Christ has a dual nature: He’s God, but he’s also man. Orlando playwright Michael Knight’s “Jesus: Origins,” onstage in a New Generation Theatrical production, has its own duality: It wants to be irreverent (and at times it is) but is also curiously respectful to the central teachings of Christianity. That means much like Jesus’ inner struggles, the play sometimes feels as though it’s fighting with itself over which direction to take. Knight’s idea was to present the story of Jesus in the vein of a superhero origin tale, and the best parts of his comedy are the references to all the tropes such comic and movie stories entail. Jesus faces every budding superhero’s crisis of conscience: “I can’t save the whole world,” laments the young man Christians call the savior of the world. A movie-montage-inspired sequence of Jesus comically learning about his divine power is incongruously set to a live performance of the meditative hymn “Mary, Did You Know?” Knight makes good use of what we are told about Jesus’ life in the Bible — and even better use of the good book’s large gap in Jesus’ formative years. One big cheat: The sword-fighting tacitly approved by Jesus. The stage combat livens things up, but the Bible is clear that even when being arrested at the end of his life, Jesus told his followers to put away their swords. If we are meant to think that Jesus matured into that belief, there’s no foreshadowing of that in the play. But Knight does pepper his script with other foreshadowings, sometimes highly effective, sometimes with an overreliance on cringey references to the Crucifixion in the vein of Seth MacFarlane’s adult cartoons. (This is also reflected in the specialty cocktails on offer, which include a gin and elderflower liqueur concoction called the “Nailed It.”) In one early scene, Jesus’ best friend comments on his obsession with sheep — which frequently feature in the Bible’s parables. “I don’t know whether to call you a carpenter or shepherd,” she says. “Thinking of changing professions?” Knight, who also directed, has a shrewd opening: The king — a descendant of Herod the Great, who ordered the Slaughter of the Innocents at the time of Jesus’ birth — has learned about the new Messiah from his father’s notes. He and his henchwoman set out to find him and destroy him, creating the perfect superhero arch-nemesis. The cast is game. Alexander Mrazek can go from imperious to petulant brat in a nanosecond as the evil king, Hannah McGinley Lemasters and Robie Phillips create a loving couple in Mary and Joseph — a loving couple straight from Queens. You know it’s just a matter of time until Mary squawks to her son, whom she refers to as her “little bubbeleh”: “What, were you born in a barn?” Meghan Mitchell and Deanna Quintero are entertaining as Jesus’ BFF — a foreshadowing of his friendship with Mary Magdalene — and the king’s conflicted adviser, respectively. And Josh Melendez beautifully radiates goodness and kindness and, yes, grace as Jesus. The play is too long for its conceit, and the pacing gets thrown off when Knight gets distracted by philosophy instead of hurtling from action scene to action scene like the best superhero movies. Still, as it plays out on its cross-shaped stage, like “Godspell” and “Jesus Christ Superstar” before, “Jesus: Origins” succeeds in one important way. It shows these Biblical characters as humans — with hopes and fears, dreams and goals. “Jesus: Origins” never quite soars like the best superhero yarns, but its ultimate message of hope would be right at home in an episode of “Superman & Lois” — or a Sunday sermon. ‘Jesus: Origins’ Length: 2:10, including intermission Where: The Abbey, 100 S.

HEATHER COX RICHARDSON
DEC 16
SAVE
▷ LISTEN
Yesterday, former president Trump took to his Truth Social media platform to announce that he would be making “a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT” today. Since he recently threw his hat in the ring for president in 2024, there was a great deal of speculation about what political move this would be.
When it came today, it turned out that his announcement was for digital trading cards with images of him as a superhero…available for $99 apiece. Radio personality John Melendez promptly called them “Broke’mon cards.”
Ron Filipkowski, a former federal prosecutor and Republican who now monitors right-wing extremism, tweeted: “All I can say is that those of us who have lost friends, fought with relatives, resigned positions, been called traitor, left our party, all because we saw very clearly what a con-man, huckster and fraud this man is, have never felt more vindicated.”
The reduction of the former president to a cartoon grifter seems likely to have political repercussions. Right-wing media personality Baked Alaska, who is facing six months in jail after pleading guilty to parading, demonstrating or picketing inside a Capitol building for his participation in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, tweeted: “i can’t believe i’m going to jail for an nft salesman,” with a sad face emoji.
Meanwhile, three members of the “Wolverine Watchmen” who hatched a plot to kill police and elected officials and to kidnap Governor of Michigan Gretchen Whitmer in summer 2020 as Trump urged his supporters to “LIBERATE” the state from her coronavirus restrictions were sentenced today to a minimum of 7 to 12 years in prison. Kara Berg of The Detroit News recorded their reactions: "I had a lapse in judgment," said one; "I sincerely regret ever allowing myself to have any affiliation with people who had those kinds of ideas,” said another; "I was caught up highly in the moment,” said a third. Michigan attorney general Dana Nessel noted that, “appropriate consequences for illegal acts are necessary to deter criminal behavior.”
Trump’s political star is fading, leaving the Republican Party without plan or policy: recall that in 2020, for the first time in its history, the party didn’t write a political platform. Instead, it said that if it had written a platform, it “would have undoubtedly unanimously agreed to reassert the Party’s strong support for President Donald Trump and his Administration.” Going forward, they simply resolved “[t]hat the Republican Party has and will continue to enthusiastically support the President’s America-first agenda.”
Now the former president is increasingly toxic. As the party tries to find someone to blame for its poor 2022 showing, some seem to have concluded the party hasn’t been extremist enough. Republican National Committee chair Ronna McDaniel, who remade the party to serve Trump, is now in a fight to keep her position, challenged by a woman who has backed election challenges and worked directly as Trump’s lawyer, rather than coming up from within the party.
The lawmakers Trump helped to usher into Congress are also doubling down on their extremism. In 2022 the Republicans just barely won control of the House—and that with the help of gerrymandered districts—leaving them very little room to argue with each other.
But while leadership in the Senate is determined by the party in power alone, the speakership of the House is voted on by the whole House. This means that with such a small majority, current House minority leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who intends to become House speaker, can lose only a few votes and yet win.
The far-right wing of his conference, some of whom were prominent in the newly released texts to and from Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows as they tried to keep Trump in power despite the will of the voters, have said they will not back McCarthy. He appears to have promised them plum committee assignments, investigations, and even impeachments, but so far, they aren’t budging.
Today, McCarthy put off the choosing of committee leadership slots until after the January 3 election for speaker, which also means the Republican membership of the committees is unclear (in contrast, the Democrats will have made their decisions by next week). This enables McCarthy to use seats as leverage—Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who was stripped of her committee assignments in this Congress, has already said she expects a prime spot on the Committee on Oversight and Reform—but it also means that the House cannot organize to start the upcoming session. It can’t even hire staff.
Republicans who style themselves the “governing wing” of the party are quietly talking about stripping their more extreme members from committees. “From a governing perspective, it’s important that Republicans don’t start January 3 by going face down and not having some clarity as to what we’re going to be able to accomplish,” Representative Steve Womack (R-AR) told Annie Grayer and Melanie Zanona of CNN. “We need to be able to hit the ground running and demonstrate to the American people that the trust and confidence they’ve given to us by giving us a majority, albeit slim, was a good decision.”
Indeed. And first on that list is keeping the government funded. Yesterday, the House approved a stopgap funding measure to keep the government operating another week while Congress prepares an omnibus bill to fund — until the end of the fiscal year on September 30, 2023. The omnibus bill must be bipartisan to get through the Senate, but House Republican leaders urged Republican members to vote against the short-term measure, saying it was an “attempt to buy additional time for a massive lame-duck spending bill in which House Republicans have had no seat at the negotiating table.” Nine Republicans voted for it nonetheless, but at the very least, it seems that negotiations next year will be difficult.
Meanwhile, over at the White House, President Joe Biden has spent the last three days hosting the U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit. Both Russia and China have invested heavily in Africa in the past, and Biden, who is trying to weaken Chinese and Russian power around the globe, announced that the U.S. is committed “to expanding and deepening our partnership with African countries, institutions, and people.” This week he announced not only that he backs the African Union’s membership in the G-20, the intergovernmental forum of leading economies, but that the U.S. will invest at least $55 billion in the continent over the next three years. The U.S. hopes to work with African nations on issues of security, health, food security—Somalia is facing drought conditions that will affect food supplies, while the Russian invasion of Ukraine has cut down fertilizer shipments to Africa more generally—climate change, corruption, and so on.
Biden announced that he and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as Dr. Jill Biden, Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff, and several members of the Cabinet, will travel to the African continent in 2023 to demonstrate the U.S. commitment to African countries and citizens.
But while the White House this week was all about geopolitics and representation, the person who handles the president’s personal Twitter account apparently couldn’t resist poking a little fun at Trump’s news. “I had some MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENTS the last couple of weeks, too…” the account read:
“Inflation’s easing
I just signed the Respect for Marriage Act
We brought Brittney Griner home
Gas prices are lower than a year ago
10,000 new high-paying jobs in Arizona”
If the Democrats are trying to portray themselves as the competent party, the Republicans seem to be trying to give them a leg up.

Royals Edge Twins 5-2.
Twins 2 Royals 5 W-Misiewicz (1-1) L-Ober (1-3) SV-Barlow (23)
The Minnesota Twins are fading fast and wishing the season was over sooner than expected. The Royals beat them last night and looked for more tonight at Kauffman Stadium. The Royals bats got cooking in the first inning as MJ Melendez smacked a Bailey Ober fastball out to left-center for a solo homer. The Royals didn’t stop there as Bobby Witt Jr. singled and Salvador Perez doubled him home. Kansas City had a two-run lead after an inning of play. The Twins responded in the second with a Gary Sanchez lead-off walk. Gilberto Celestino singled to left and Matt Wallner lined a run-scoring base hit to left. This pulled Minnesota within a run after a pair of innings. The Royals would get that run back in the third when Salvador Perez led-off with a single to left. Vinnie Pasquantino doubled and Edward Olivares lined a two-out single to center to put the Royals back up by two runs again. The Twins wouldn’t give up as Nick Gordon reached on an error to start the fourth. He would later score on a Matt Wallner double to pull Minnesota within a run. Both starters settled down and the bullpens were pretty strong. Nate Eaton started a seventh inning rally with a lead-off single to right and stole second base. Bobby Witt Jr. hit an RBI single to center and Salvador Perez reached on an infield single. Vinnie Pasquantino hit into a double play to plate a run and extend the Kansas City lead to three. Dylan Coleman and Amir Garrett got out of the eighth. Scott Barlow had a clean ninth and the Royals took the series from the Twins tonight. 
-Final Thoughts- Bailey Ober was decent after a rough first inning. He went five innings and allowed three runs on seven hits with a walk and three strikeouts. Aaron Sanchez gave up two runs on three hits over three innings with four strikeouts to save the bullpen. Matt Wallner had two hits and two RBI’s to lead the offense. The Twins hit 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position and lfet seven men on base. It’s hard to watch this team lately because they find ways to lose games. Tomorrow, Josh Winder faces Jonathan Heasley in the series finale from Kansas City.
