I was tagged by @georgeromeros (thank you!) to post ✨ 9 favorite films that I watched (for the first time) in 2022 ✨
I didn’t watch a lot of movies last year, if I count out re-watches of movies I already liked. However, when I did watch new (for me) movies I came across some pretty good ones, at least in my opinion. No surprise in seeing it’s all horror in a way or the other.
I’m tagging anyone that sees this and wants to do this! It’s fun
#tagging game#9 favorite films#9 favorite films watched in 2022#i also have quite a few honorable mentions:#the disappearance of alice creed#the skeleton key#walk the line#the collection#laid to rest 2#escape room tournament of champions#don't breathe#morgan 2016#orphan first kill#which is another 9 lmao#anna talks#anyway thanks for tagging me!#movies#Horror Movies

Formal Attire
Multi-Fandom Headcanons. Main Characters. Short list.
Includes: Watch_Dogs, Assassin's Creed, Deus Ex, and Detroit Become Human
Aiden Pearce wearing a tux, always trying to loosen his bow tie because he feels like it's choking him. Halfway through the night the little fabric accessory disappears. Despises the fact he can't wear his usual cap and that he had to fix his hair with gel. Gets home and immediately takes it off and hops in the shower, feeling relief in discarding the restricting fabrics and the ichy hair products. Was a one time only thing that he rented and gave back the second he had the chance. Very uncomfortable.
Marcus Holloway doesnt mind wearing tuxes or suits. Something simpler like a formal vest or just a dress shirt is fine too. He thinks he looks good and he owns that. Will look in the mirror after putting on an outfit and whistle. He looks sharp and he feels amazing. Confidence Boost.
Desmond Miles doesnt get more formal than a t-shirt with a picture of a tux on it and black pants. There's no convincing him to wear more than that. He thinks wearing tuxes or suits is just stupid. Too many layers, too hot, takes forever to put on and take off, and too damn expensive. Besides, he doesn't know how to tie a tie. Not interested.
Adam Jensen wears what I like to call 'simplistic formal attire'. A nice dress shirt, a tie, a pair of dress pants, some formal shoes. Whether or not he does anything with his hair depends on how formal the event is. More times than not, his sleeves are rolled up half-way. Nothing fancy.
Conner wears his uniform more times than not. Though if he has to blend in, he'd wear a suit or the right level of formal attire to not stand out. He doesnt have a preference for fashion. No interest.
Kara would wear whatever Alice asked her to. If she gets to see her little girl smile, she'll be happy to dress up. Even if it's to just wear a dress around the house. She even lets Alice do her makeup. Even if she probably doesnt need it. Quite content.
Markus is another simplistic formal type but the polo shirt variation. To him clothing is another way of self expression, like art. Makes him appear more 'human'. So wearing clothes that he likes matters to him. In the end it's a simple idea of choice. A freedom.

A list of of the Xbox 360 DLC still up to buy in the store! Along with all delisted DLC we are aware of.
With just over a week list we've put together a quick list of every game where the DLC is still up to buy in the UK store. They may be delisted in your region however. This list was made using the all search list, which is still up at present expect it to disappear on the 29th of July.
Link here: https://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/Games/All?SortBy=Title&PageSize=90
Change the letters GB to the letters used for your region of the website North America is US for example.
All the games listed have at least one of their DLCs still up in the store, some DLC content may be delisted already and a few still show in the store and can't be purchased as we found out with the Map Pack for Ninety-Nine Nights II yesterday when we tried to buy it.
This is a full list and includes all games, some have the DLC on Xbox One / Series others do not. Some games like N+ and Lost Planet 2 have DLC on Xbox 360, but not in the Xbox One Store.
Some games like Fallout 2 and Star Wars The Force Unleashed have complete version. Others like Mass Effect, Borderlands 2 and Two Worlds have version with some of the DLC on disc, but not all.
I've tried to list free DLC and Compatibility Pack for games, but as I've done this in a hurry I haven't labeled them all. Hopefully I didn't miss any from the official marketplace webaite, but let me know if I did.
I've tried to list all games with their full name, but the shop's A-Z has some odd listings, something they list them by the word "the" but not others. Some games are just initials, some use the full name like Tony Clancy's etc.. others skip the author name and just use Splinter Cell.
Example Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes turns up in the C listing.
I've included a very rough list of delisted or unobtainable DLC at the bottom which is a work in progress. At some point in the future, I might try and turn this into a full list of games with DLCs.

Just found your work and loved it! Can’t wait for update
Ok so I promise I haven't just disappeared! I just did a summer course for uni and then got obsessed with Assassins Creed again and then got a new puppy and then uni started again...
Anyway! As a way to show that I have not just abandoned my fics and that I have been working on them - here is a snippet from the start of chapter 5 of Whats a Coup Without a King?
It seemed that becoming Queen had done little to temper Rhaenyras long standing penchant for mischief, nor her apparent desire to drive Ser Harrold into an early grave.
It had also had little success, much to Daemons amusement, in tempering the Dowager Queens own fury. While it took everything Laena had to not fall asleep on her husbands shoulder, the events of the days having taken their toll, Alicent seemed to face no such limitations. The elder woman had seemed to barely notice their arrival, too busy pacing in front of the doors leading to the main courtyard and muttering to herself to care for their company.
Admittedly, Laena probably would have been every bit as angry if she had entrusted her daughter to Rhaenyras care and had then been awoken in the middle of the night to the news that they had left both the Red Keep and their Kingsguard behind. But Laena would trust Rhaenyra with her life, had already entrusted pieces of her heart to her. She had known since the moment her girls were born that Rhaenyra would protect them as her own simply because they were kin. She was not Alicent, for Laena had never held any reason, been given any cause, to suggest that her children were anything but loved by their aunt. Arguably, Alicent should have even more trust in Rhaenyra than Laena, should be able to put her faith in not only the bonds of blood but the bonds of a shared childhood. But the abrupt ending of that childhood had left its marks and Laena knew that it was not just the Dowager Queens childhood fear of dragons that was fuelling this fervent anger and worry.
The poison whispered in her ears had left deep, fearful wounds in Alicent, scars poised to split open again at any moment. Such long held fears, such horrific worries, they did not simply go away in a matter of weeks, no matter what words were said, what reassurances were given.

9 people you'd like to get to know better ♡
Thank you @hancydrewfan
last song: Everywhere - the opening track from The Cranes 'Forever' album. Great goth album from the early 90's. Just takes me someplace magical.
favourite colour: Purple. Raelee Hill knitted me a purple scarf once!!!
currently watching: The Shield (again) - the show is absolute perfection in my opinion - and groundbreaking for its use of direction and editing. Also rewatch Breaking Bad and The Leftovers pretty regularly too!!
last movie: God, don't expect anything modern or mainstream!! The Disappearance Of Alice Creed (twisty turny twisty twisty thriller). And I'm going to watch the horror flick 'Triangle' (the Melissa George one) tonight on DVD.
currently reading: I just finished Masters of Make Up Effects by Howard Berger. But I am engrossed in a couple fanfictions.
sweet/spicy/savoury: Sweet, for my sins.
relationship status: Single
current obsession: Paget Brewster/Emily Prentiss... art... fanfic.. models.
last thing i googled: Plant fertiliser
currently working on: Three fanfic requests and a Prentiss painting.
ahhh, to tag or not to tag, the anxiety-inducing question. please feel no pressure to do these, but i tag @tedwinisconfused @leftoverenvy @introverted-author @lex13cm @grandhike @aliprentiss77 @velvetblackness @just-a-torn-up-masterpiece @imahealer-but and anyone who sees this and wants to answer them (tag me so i can read them if you do!)

Find The Word
Find 5 words in your wip and post snippets.
Mine are: desperate, waste, judge, sign, earn
Yours are: winner, accident, grandmother, indication, shopping
From The Hare and the Jackal. Content: combat, parental rage
desperate
(POV Creed)
I can feel the vitalist’s frustration. “Keep him open!” he barks. “I’m trying!” the kid barks back. “He’s too fast!” A second inky mass comes rolling over my shoulder [from Isabella]. I can see the fear in the kid’s eyes, not understanding what it is, and his attacks suddenly become more desperate. I throw my elbow up to ward off one blow, but he follows up with a heavy hook that connects with my face.
waste
(POV Luther, feat. Mary)
I lean over the desk. “You’re promising half the Kinshold’s most arable land. What will be left?” She rolls her eyes. “The Glory of the Gods, father, and pride in a mother who knew humanity’s place in this world.” My fist cracks against the desktop. “Damn the Gods! For cursing me with such wasteful daughters!”
judge
(POV Isabella, Creed is referred to by his Colonel Dieter Bain persona, feat. Ines Barbaron)
“Mercenarism is a very dignified profession that we take quite seriously,” Dieter says, drawing her eye and then shooting a significant glance at her scanty coverings. “I’m sorry, Colonel, it seems I’ve made you uncomfortable,” she says, meeting his gaze with a steady smile like she’s daring him to admit that he’s distracted by her. “I simply question whether your Ladyship is fully provisioned for the task at hand.” “Considering that we haven’t even started, I don’t think you’re very well equipped to be a judge of that,” she says, her smile growing more pronounced. “But if you’re done with pleasantries, then by all means, let’s get to business.”
sign
(POV Creed)
Today, we find a wide, open room with hardly a door in sight, as though all the walls have been taken out and the floor dropped. It’s dimly lit, and packed with what must be a hundred people, some ordering tankards of beer from the bar that still spans the north wall. The rest are in raised seating, like a theater, all facing something brightly lit and obscured by the scaffolding. The crowd cheers again, and I think I catch the sound of a snarl. Has Florian built a dog fighting ring? I cross the room, following a thin trail of people hurrying to their seats with tankards of beer in hand. A bookie with a sign displaying betting odds sits at a table near the entrance to the small stadium. The contenders have names like “Alice the Render” and “Kilian Blackmane.” Ahead, I can just make out a metal cage with two dark shapes shifting about inside, too big to be dogs. A low whistle escapes my lips as I realize what—who—they are.
earn
(POV Luther, feat. Isabella)
“I mean to,” she says. “It’s impossible to ignore the call of this place. As much as I enjoy hunting for relics and politicking with thieves, I can’t help feeling like I’m meant for something greater. Like my skills could be put to better use.” Her eyes have trailed to the hearth on the left, following the line of the chimney up to the effigy of the Prophet that’s hanging over the mantle. “It’s not like I can just put on a suit and pretend the last sixteen years haven’t happened, of course, but in your letters you’ve always seemed so sure that coming home was possible…” “Possible?” I almost laugh. “Of course it’s possible, child. Do you really think I would have let you out of my sight without a plan by which you could return? Debts, crimes, injuries, I can make them all disappear.” Her fingers wrap around the bottom of her cuirass and she tugs at it, straightening in a motion that reminds me how much smaller she is than the thick leather makes her appear; not unusually small, just human. Digestible. “I’m sure you’ve thought of everything, but… it’s important to me that I wrap up this phase of my life on my own power. I want to pay my own debts and make my own apologies. I guessed you’d want to help, though, and I do need gold and vitality to settle everything properly, but rather than just giving me everything I was… well, I was hoping I could earn it.”
Thank you for the tag @thatndginger
Soft tagging @lungs-and-gills @vcaudley @writernopal @ceph-the-ghost-writer @linaket and anybody else who would like to play. also if you want to be on my tag games list (or you don't, haha) leave a comment for me!

It's time for Beginnings, the podcast where writer and performer Andy Beckerman talks to the comedians, writers, filmmakers and musicians he admires about their earliest creative experiences and the numerous ways in which a creative life can unfold.
On today's episode, I talk to filmmaker J. Blakeson. Originally from Harrogate, North Yorkshire, J. started out making low-budget shorts of his own. This eventually led to him being able to make a slightly larger film, The Disappearance of Alice Creed, in 2009, starring Gemma Arterton and Eddie Marsan. Over the next 14 years, J. wrote and directed many other films and TV shows; some highlights include the Gunpowder miniseries for BBC One/HBO and 2021's I Care a Lot for which Rosamund Pike won a Golden Globe. Most recently, J. wrote and directed the Disney+ series Culprits, which just debuted last week, and it is wonderful!

The Disappearance of Alice Creed,劇中只有兩男人一女以及個簡單佈景的綁架故事,但有著意想不到的劇情發展和結局。就是這簡單設定有着無限的可能性,而吸引我去看整部電影。當中持續不斷地推出新懸念,慢慢積蓄觀眾情緒,直到最後高潮徹底宣洩,很爽的~
