Celebration: 88,978 Words in One Day!
Just yesterday, a few other LU writers and I, Hot Cheeto Hatred, hosted our first ever monthly (hopefully) Write-a-thon! This event ran on June 4 from 12 am EST to 12 am EST, with one goal in mind---write as many productive words within that day as humanly possible. Words included in the final marathon count ranged from storyboarding, fic writing, editing, answering comments, journalling and homework---basically, any words that furthered yourself, the writing community at large, or your stories. We utilized either the Discord Sprint bot or self-reporting to collect the numbers at the end. Everyone involved gave it their all, with most of them being present for most if not all of the run time as they were able, and I'm so proud of their dedication towards their craft. Anyways, here's the final breakdown of the numbers below, as well as the awards and titles earned by each participant, as decided by the discord server (and myself at random).
Tumblr media
Now onto the awards:
I am pleased to report that @not-freyja (Freyja above) won the "Writer of All Time" Award, pulling ahead with 20,565 of our total words. What an accomplishment! Freyja participated from dawn to well, dawn, and they absolutely deserve all praise and awe.
I'm giving myself, @hotcheetohatred (Cheeto), the award "Writer of Some Time," as I fell behind our lovely Freyja by a mere few hundred words fifteen minutes before the clock struck midnight. Next time, Freyja, next time...
The "Actually A Writer" award goes to @marcusdoodlesalot (Marcus), who, despite the name, DOES actually write, not just draw! Who would have thought. Not Freyja, that's for sure.
The "Early Bird" award goes to @lerikwrites (Lerik), who solely sprinted in the wee hours of the morning (my time, at least). Terrible. Good job.
"Star Commentor" goes to @elle-rosewater (Eliot), because I stole most of her words for the count from my own comment section in the BDOR Prologues. We love you, Eliot :3 Can't wait to see you next month.
"Cheerleader" goes to @la-sera, who gave us much encouragement throughout the day. I stole your 19 words from you saying you were excited to read Estelian's work. Hope that's okay, because I really wanted to include you---you provided a lot, even if you didn't write with us this time <3.
@whumpitywhumpitywhumpity (Dowsemaxxer) earns "Spirit-ed Storyboarder" for all of his lovely, informative talk on Spirit and just what makes him so great as a rather underappreciated LU boy.
Two awards next! "Chief Editor" and "Most Student" both go to @unexpectedstormy (Stormy) for faer work on getting. stuff. done. Fae did a steady amount of work, so proud.
"Editor (of Word Count) in Chief" goes to @tashacee (Tash), who, at reporting time, was scrounging up 100 and 200 word bits like spare change while I desperately tried to do math. I love you, never change.
The title of "Specter" goes to @somer-writes (Somer), who logged in very few sprints, but participated with the rest of us and pulled up at the end with a whole 7.5K words and a bunch of fics to post at the end, with a lot of it being Ghost AU! He's amazing.
The award "Better Late than Never" goes to our resident artist and recently turned fic-writer @estelian-01 (Este), who joined only in the last half of the marathon but managed to pull a whole 4K! Pictures might be worth a thousand words, but Este wrote a couple more anyway.
@across-violet-skies (Riv) gets the title "Mover and Shaker (of Blorbos)" for managing to participate and get quite the hefty wordcount only a DAY after moving. They're a trooper, that's for sure.
@anime-obsessed (Vio/Nene) earns the award "Most Old School" for writing with pen and paper for most of the day. Please go rest your wrist after all of that.
The award "Head in the Clouds" goes to my bestie and beloved beta reader @needfantasticstories (Skip), who spent the day listening to music and writing Skyloft drabbles. I am nervous/excited to see if those drabbles turned out fluffy as a Loftwing, or perhaps into something more angsty.
@noorahqar (Qar), my lovely fragile Victorian wife, earns the title "Chatty." You know why. But you were there nearly all of the run time, and so engaging and encouraging throughout---a blessing to us all. And even then, you managed to pull so many words. I'm impressed.
And finally, @rosehipandroots / @rosetintedtears (Rose) receives the titles "ndskanefnre" (self chosen) and "Birthday Santa." The first was borne of panic of being asked to choose a title---the second of her relentless effort to get her birthday fics done. Great job.
I'd like to thank everyone that I tagged for participating in the write-a-thon, and thank all of you for helping me draft this post as well. If I messed up any word counts or details or pronouns, you want to request a title/award change, or I missed someone, please DM and let me know! The next Write-a-thon will be held on July 1 from 12am to 12am GMT, and we'll be trying to beat our record. Can't wait to see all of you then!

The 2nd Doctor's footwear
decided to make a post about it because 90% of the time his feet look completely featureless on screen and Google rarely provides helpful images.
In the colourised/spiced up image on the official Doctor Who Website has him wearing these black and shiny shoes, which I feel are slightly out of place for the 2nd Doctor, just for the fact he most often is seen with shoes that are worn and warped to an extent.
Tumblr media
In his debut episode The Power Of The Daleks, he wears the ones seen below.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They're not entirely worn yet, but you can clearly tell they're not brand new either. The leather has wrinkled and warped, and the soles of his shoes have visible wear. I haven't got a clue what kind of shoes these are and can't seem to find other shoes like them online, so I did my best to make a general sketch of how they're shaped.
This shoe has rather angular soles with a small but decently raised heel. Then the shoe itself seems to have a little flap at the back and front.
Tumblr media
Though these are not the shoes he'll have for his entire run.
In The Space Pirates, there's a surviving shot that gives a clear view of his shoes as well. The leather is once again worn and warped, but here you can clearly see it's laced at the front. The heels are also seemingly lower than the ones in his debut episode. I tried my best to find shoes close to the ones he's wearing, but the ones below are the only ones I thought were similar enough.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But you might be asking to yourself, "i-like-media, why are you looking at these low quality, black n white images? His shoes appeared in the 3rd's debut episode and he later came back for The Three Doctors" And you're right! They did appear in the 3rd's first episode! But let's take a closer look at those.
Tumblr media
We get a clear (and hilarious) scene with the Doctor hugging his shoes, and essentially see them at all angles.
We're to believe these are the same shoes he wore in The War Games, so these should be good reference pictures of what the 2nd Doctor wore... except SIKE! THESE AREN'T THE SAME SHOES!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The shoes below are what he wore during his trail, at the last moments as the 2nd Doctor! They're a totally different type of shoe! The black shoes are also shiny and clearly new, with them having no wear at the soles or wrinkles in the leather. The shoes above also seem to be slip-on shoes with a regular heel, while the 2nd doctor wore laced shoes with a rather small heel.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's also seen wearing a similarly styled pair of shoes in The Mind Robber. These shoes have a similar low heel and are also laced. These shoes also however seems to have the shoe-side-flaps be warped and curled themselves besides the typical wear we've come to expect.
Tumblr media
Here are also some similar looking shoes I've found from various other episodes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These shoes seem to be the ones that are, in his original run, the most common type of shoes for him to wear! Not the shiny, featureless slip-on type of shoes merch often portrays him in.
Then let's take a look at the shoes he wore in The Three Doctors, and it's back to those shining, smooth and new shoes...
Tumblr media
Technically this would confirm the 2nd Doctor DID wear those shoes at some point in time and clear up the discrepancy of the 3rd Doctor hugging those shoes, but in my opinion the costume department of that episode didn't really understand what the costume department of his original run was doing (which is essentially making him look unkempt on purpose. In his original run they intentionally gave him a coat that's too large for him and here he's wearing a coat that's exactly tailored to be his size.) But I digress. This episode does show the 2nd Doctor wearing these smooth and new type of shoes, albeit uncommon for him to actually wear those.
Though there's one pair of shoes that no one ever seems to talk about.
These ones he DOES wear frequently on screen and I've yet to see merch with him wearing them...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's the wellies. Of Course it's the wellies. Patrick wore these often on set while filming outside, as seen in the on-set pictures above... but these often ended up making it into the episodes themselves. Such as below in the episode The War Games.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These are clearly continuity errors between takes, since the Doctor seems to wear regular shoes when not walking around rough terrain in the very same episode OR EVEN the scene before, but it's honestly a discrepancy I've grown rather fond of. I'd like to think he's somehow always carrying them in his Mary Poppins pockets.
Anyways, I hope this post kind of helped put a clearer perspective on what the 2nd Doctor wore and what type of shoes you as a cosplayer/artist could be looking for! Also sorry for some chaotic wording ^o^'
For a more coherent and deep dive into the 2nd Doctor's costume, you should check out The Zero Room by LeeMoone! They've done incredible deepdives into his outfit over the years!

Hello! I saw that you posted how guys would react to a naughty video of his gf, can I ask Gentaro x fem reader, who pranks Gen by sending her a picture saying she's horny but really she's just bored being alone?
It's okay if you don't want to write it, but there are so few Gentaro stories u.u
Was a lie ✨
Hi! That possibility had not occurred to me, but of course! Plus it sounds like a lot of fun!
Warnings: A bit of a hint about sex, but nothing overt. spicy photos
Gentaro x reader
It was already your second day off that you didn't spend with him because his schedules don't match, you knew he was in a meeting with his editor and hopefully, maybe he'll be back by nightfall, they could still share some time together, but it wasn't the same.
You're about to send him a message just to wish him luck in the interview when it occurs to you that you could play a little prank on him. Followed by your good luck wishes, you ask if it really is a long time before he arrives.
"I know, sorry honey... the meeting hasn't started yet" after taking some time he writes another message "I'll make up for it, I promise it won't happen again" you feel a little guilty for what you're going to do after reading that last one.
Lying on the bed, you undress keeping your underwear, placing a hand on your crotch and squeezing it with your thighs, looking for the best angle before taking a photo and sending it "Gentaro, I don't think I can take much more" just a few minutes pass before he sees it.
Your message remains seen for a long time, you can see how he tries to write something but he deletes it repeatedly before finally replying to you. "It must be a joke, but thanks for the photo I'll save it well" oh, well it may be very obvious but don't let that win you over.
"Do I have to send you a video too?" This time he didn't answer, you thought he definitely hadn't fallen so you changed back, and you just went to bed to use your cell phone until you got bored. You were so bored being alone, you had nothing to do, not even your friends were available today.
You thought about cooking something to entertain yourself for a while, so you started looking for the ingredients to make a dessert. Taking a last look at Gentaro's chat in case he had responded, but he hadn't.
While you cook you keep thinking about how sad it is that their schedules don't match. Your mind wanders into future plans about his upcoming dates, picking a place to go immediately after he gets back. This time there would be no way for him to fail.
You were about to finish when you heard the front door open and the noise of footsteps at full speed in your direction. Without time to react, you remain paralyzed in place as you see Gentaro running with all his things in his hands, without seeing you with the sole objective of reaching the room.
"I'm here honey!" For a brief moment there is silence again and his footsteps become softer "s/o!" He opens the bathroom door, but since you're not there either he walks more slowly looking for you until he reaches the kitchen "s/o?" His face can barely express the confusion he feels.
"Gentaro? You didn't have a meeting?..." they exchange glances waiting for someone to explain "you sent me that photo and I thought... I was too late?" You blink without understanding what it means, until something clicks in your brain. "Oh, I was lying!" You laugh because you didn't think your joke had worked, it wasn't in your plans for him to leave the meeting in order to come and please you.
"Lying?" He says that word like he doesn't know it, he can't believe he fell for a joke. He feels so silly, but he was so excited to play with you. A mischievous smile begins to grow on his face as he slowly approaches you. "You won't get out of this so easy my pretty little heart and I'm not lying"
Trapping you in his arms, he tickles you with his fingers until you cry a couple of times. He interrupts your laughter by giving you a totally anticlimactic hungry kiss. He loves the sound of your laughter and will do everything he can to protect it, but he loves your moans even more, plus he has to make you pay for your little prank.

Anyway I hope you like this one, I worked extra hard to make it as fluffy as possible after the last one haha
also we are not going to mention the fact im using a wheel of names to decide the order of what's getting done now
that smile will be the death of me
Tumblr media
Waking up in bed with Carlos Sainz was one of your favourite things in the universe.
You'd been together for a while now, and his friend long before that. Your relationship was one of those where the lines blurred together. You couldn't remember the exact day high fives turned into intertwined fingers, or celebratory hugs turned into making out in his driver's room.
It was actually the fans that had gotten you together. Working so closely with him for years meant that there were always pictures of you two together, and through being caught on behind the scenes videos and in the background of paddock coverage, you became a fan favourite amongst the non-drivers of F1. You were fairly used to being caught by paparazzi, especially as you were often escorting Carlos, who was the object of anyone with half a brain's attention. It was Carlos who picked up on it, and that day you did remember clearly.
He'd given one of his signature shrieks, the one you knew would be immediately followed by that ridiculous squawking laugh he only did when he was completely comfortable and totally amused. It took him a moment to compose himself before he showed you the video he was watching. It was a TikTok, obviously, because only TikTok had the ability to create chaos like that. The video was titled "My Favourite F1 Conspiracy Theories", which you thought was pretty funny in itself.
They were mostly silly, things about drivers losing seats and FIA biases towards certain teams, and a certain Monegasque driver with a home race curse. You were just starting to wonder what was quite so funny about the video Carlos was showing you when you recognised the set of images that outlined the penultimate theory.
"Carlos Sainz and Y/N Y/L/N are secretly dating," the creator was explaining, and in the background was a collection of paparazzi pictures of yourself with Carlos. Individually you'd thought nothing of them, but when they were collected together like that the image was clear. His hand on the small of your back, guiding you through a door. You hugging him, his hands on your hips and your arms wrapped around his neck. The pair of you out to dinner, you laughing at something he'd said, him leaning forward with that killer smile and his attention solely on you. You walking so close together that with the blurred image it wasn't clear if your fingers were intertwined or not. Carlos, holding you, his mouth pressing a kiss on your forehead.
"Must be a big secret if I didn't know I was dating you," you'd murmured, your mouth dry and suddenly very, very aware of the lack of space between you. He made a noise in the back of the throat, and just watched you for a second, those big brown eyes fixed on your face.
"Are we?"
"What?"
"Are we dating?" you stared at him because who asks that? Your expression must have given away the bewilderment. "I kiss you," he said simply as if that cleared up everything.
"I think there's a bit more to dating than just kissing, Carlos," his eyes focused on something behind you, zoning out for a moment and then coming back to you.
"Yes,"
"Yes?"
"I think we are dating," if this was his way of asking you out it was weird, but Carlos was a little weird (and incredibly adorable).
"Me too," you said because after a moment's reflection you realised that you'd been playing the role of Unofficial Girlfriend without even knowing it, for who knows how long.
"Okay then," he nodded and that was it. Carlos never brought it up again.
But you did notice he was a little more touchy with you in public. He was quicker to hold your hand. You stopped creeping out of his room in the middle of the night.
The feeling of his arm snaking around your waist, pulling you gently into his back brought you back to the present day. Your bare skin pressed against his hard chest was a heavenly feeling. He was always so warm, it was like having the best electric blanket in the world. He made a low grunt in his sleep, which only made you snuggle deeper into his arms. Mornings like this, when he had a day off and you were allowed to wake up without ringing alarm bells and instant activity, made everything else you did with him so worthwhile.
"Good morning, mi sol," ever since he'd accidentally called you a nickname in Spanish instead of English and you'd practically jumped him on sight he made a point to allow more of his home language to infiltrate. You squirmed in his arms, partly in pleasure at the nickname, and partly because he was peppering your neck with feather light kisses and the combination of his scruffy beard and long hair was tickling you.
"Good morning," you turned in his arms, not able to resist his kiss any longer. He met you with equal enthusiasm, his large hand coming up to cradle your face as you melted into him. When he pulled away it wasn't far, your foreheads touching and noses brushing against each other.
"I didn't think it was possible to love someone this much," God, he was such a romantic. It made your heart swell because you felt exactly the same. Everything in your life revolved around Carlos, and you wouldn't have it any other way. Even if the both of you were teased mercilessly in the paddock because Carlos was like a puppy with separation anxiety these days.
It was a slow kind of day. After a morning of fooling around in bed, the pair of you finally stumbled into the shower because his stomach was growling so loudly that breakfast had to become a priority. He insisted on cooking for you, even though you were more than capable of fixing the food too.
You were wearing one of the dress shirts he'd worn over the weekend, only half the buttons done up and it only just grazing your thighs. Your legs were bare as the only other item of clothing you wore was your panties. Carlos was no better, a pair of light grey sweatpants slung low on his hips. It was too hot for a shirt, he claimed, and you weren't complaining. You were leaning on the breakfast bar in his house, watching the tanned Adonis you were lucky enough to call your boyfriend making you breakfast.
He was focused on the eggs, his head tilted down to give you his incredibly sharp profile, his long hair shining in the sunlight and flopping into his eyes. He'd shaved in the bathroom, so he was back to a perfectly shaped stubble shadow.
"Do you know how beautiful you are?" You asked him, his attention snapping to you with a raised eyebrow and a slight quirk of his lips. He loved compliments. "It's truly distracting," which made him break out into a grin, forcing him to look away for a moment as you spotted a light pink hue creeping up his neck. He put the pan of eggs down away from the head and came over to where you were, lifting you onto the counter with ease and settling himself between your legs.
"I think I'm supposed to be the one to call you beautiful," his voice was a low rumble in his chest, his accent made the words sound like cursive.
"You can show me," you offered, earning yourself a raised eyebrow and a very smug look.
"It would be my honour,"

Every character in Team7 has it’s own agenda to like that team and not everyone are connected to each other strongly like they show in Movies.. Kakashi being the sole exception for this.
Sorry but that point intrigued me because I had to disagree. Because I feel like Kakashi is the most detached individual from Team 7. Maybe because I just can't forget when he almost died his last thought is to not exclude Team 7 as his last precious thought but to lump them together with Konoha 12 as "the future". He is the only sensei in Naruto who left his students to team up with another team (Team 10). There are 3 Team 7 reunions in Shippuden, 2 of them Kakashi is conveniently absent (not his fault that he was bedridden and then trapped because of Kamui, but still), and Kage Summit arc reunion is basically the opposite of teamwork, all members want to do everything by their own including Kakashi. It's hard for me to remember Kakashi having deep thought about Team 7 without bringing Team Minato, while for sure Sasuke has some thought about Team 7 and interestingly 2 of them without Kakashi in the picture (on tree and moments before he left the village). Like sure he did what he was expected to do as Sensei, he protected them, caught and supported them when they fell, taught them things, but I feel like he never connected with them in emotional aspect. He barely tells his students anything about himself in their first meeting and he still carried that sentiment till the end (he only admits that he likes them near the end and it was not even a statement that he spoke out loud).
I don't bash him for that though, Kakashi has every right to have his own circle and is not devoted to Team 7, but I feel like when Team 7 broke he's the least affected by it. Even in Boruto era, he has little to no input regarding Boruto Sarada drama, which is honestly, good for him. If I was him I don't wanna be involved as well but it's kinda funny that fandom often portrays Kakashi to be nosy and cohesive in Team 7 business although Kakashi imo is even more aloof than Sasuke toward Team 7. I think Kakashi didn't think much about Team 7 compared to Team Minato, so I wonder what makes you think that Kakashi is the only member that connected strongly to Team 7.
[[This post may be aggressive... Not because of you, Anon... But because this team brings out the worst side of me as this is the only team which is totally dishonest and repulsive at many levels (almost like SS and NH level of irritation)]]
[[Mild bashing of Naruto and Sasuke here... So, Read only if you want to...]]
Oh, I do have a lennnnnnnnghthy post about this Bad Team which always gave me a feeling of Guzzling a bottle of Acid and probably you will know what I mean when I post it... Next week. However that's from Sasuke's perspective though.
What I mean by 'Kakashi being the sole exception for this' is not that he Treasured Team 7 as his Family or that he was strongly connected to them or anything... At the very least, He helped Naruto to create Rasen Shuriken and With Sasuke, Chidori. With Sakura, nothing much because he is not a Medical Ninja but he made it up by saving her useless ass many times... In my opinion, He keeps all the three at the same level. However, fans argue that he favours Sasuke more and some say that he favours Naruto more and all that. I don't agree with those views at all.
Kakashi not having a deep thought about Team 7 is good enough to show that he keeps everyone at the same level, no matter how much disconnected he is. . Dot. Period. 
But Do you really really really really think that Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke was all about Team 7 & emotionally connected with each other because they always think about that stupid Team 7 picture???
Well, Let me bemusedly laugh if you say ‘Yes’. Because I never felt this team exhibit such behaviour at any point.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even though Sakura was looking at the Team 7 picture, Do you really think she was thinking and crying about Team 7 reunion???? 
Can you really say that Sakura, the Selfless Girl was also thinking about the good times she had with Naruto and Kakashi???
Tumblr media
Or Do you really think that this Asshole s thinking about a Happy ending for Team 7 as a whole??? Or was she thinking about how to get inside the pants of Sasuke under the guise of 'TEAM 7 HAPPINESS !!! YAAY!!!'
Or Let's take this Naruto, this moron....
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here, in Part 1, while fighting with Gaara... Naruto was thinking about Team7 + Iruka as his important people who acknowledged his existence and he was waxing poetry about them.
I actually believed it, you know. Except that this moron shat on my face, the most. Even then, I had a doubt as to 'What the f**k Sakura was doing here??? What did she do anyway??'....
And then we got this,
Tumblr media
“What Sasuke’s talking about.... Because of that with this Rasengan... I have to make sure...”
While fighting an intense battle with Sasuke in VoTE1, Naruto was thinking about Sasuke's statement about 'Close Friend' and then right after that he thinks about Team 7 picture.... Can you really say that, "Oh Geez!!! Naruto was totally thinking about Team 7 here... because he was fighting an Homoerotic & Intense battle with Sasuke for 10 chapters where they were sharing their personal feelings about 'How I liked you when I was Young' and nothing else..."
Added to that,
Tumblr media
Shoot!!!! Naruto was totesy all about Team 7 here.... It's just that only Sasuke's name made it out of his mouth.... Other than that, Naruto was also thinking about Sakura & Kakashi as well. Right??? Right????
Tumblr media
Here we go again.... Naruto wanting to understand Sasuke's pain, laugh with him and fight with him....  And then immediately after that he lumped Sasuke into Team 7....  (What about Sakura and Kakashi, you Idiot??? Don't you want to understand their pain???)
Tumblr media
This scene happens right after Naruto got to know about Sakura was planning to kill Sasuke... Do you really think that this moron was giving a deep thought about Team 7 and all that bullshit????
Well, Kakashi was standing right behind him to support his decisions, Right??? It was just Sakura who was planning to kill Sasuke (and that joker is a weakling who can’t even put a dent on Sasuke...... and Naruto knew this full well because she couldn't even deflect Karui's kick)... And yet why is he feeling like the whole Team 7 was shattered after hearing that news????
Let's say he was thinking about Team 7 here....
Tumblr media
Then why didn't this moron didn't even mention Team 7 members here like he did in Part 1??? Instead he made it all about Iruka and Sasuke in the top panel... And when it comes to Team 7, he was openly admitting that he had eyes only on Sasuke, "We went on missions as Team 7 and I kept on chasing you, wanting to be just as strong and cool"....
Excuse me????
Naruto, You moron.... Just before this moment, Sasuke tried to kill Kakashi & Sakura who were also from Team 7 and yet here you are confessing your feelings to Sasuke while completely ignoring your other team members and not to mention you were gleefully laughing and saying, ‘I am Glad I met you’
Tumblr media
Oh My God!!! This is totally a Team 7 moment!!!! 
So, Naruto feels like Team 7 was crumbling only on hearing Sasuke was going to be killed but not after seeing Sasuke was really trying to kill Sakura and Kakashi????
Oh Woww!!! Team 7 Power!!! Yaay!!!!
Yeah, My Ass!!!! Enough with this Team 7 bullshit from Naruto and Sakura. 
If Naruto and Sakura, the people who acts like they love Team 7 while completely hiding their real Feelings.... What do you think about Sasuke, the most disconnected one, when it comes to these panels and many other panels where he thinks about Team 7????
Tumblr media
It’s really surprising that this moron Sasuke wasn’t even thinking about Kakashi here when he was the one who taught him his predominant jutsu and also he gave him a little pep talk to which Sasuke almost changed.
You are telling me that without Naruto and Sakura, this moron will be lonely????? Just like Sakura saying she will be lonely without Sasuke???? Seriously????
Tumblr media
Do you really think that Sasuke was putting Sakura and Naruto on the same level and feeling pain before leaving the village??? Or that he was giving a deep thought about his happy days with Team 7?? (Or Was there one???)
Especially he did this, minutes later....
Tumblr media
How could Sasuke keeps Sakura and Naruto on the same level some minutes before, but could able to effortlessly deride Sakura like this by saying ‘You’re Annoying’, while he never did or couldn’t do something like this with Naruto???
And he did this some years later...
Tumblr media
This Sasuke, the moron just like Naruto who actually thought about Team 7 Picture during his fight with Killer Bee just before this Arc and yet when he saw Sakura he didn’t even hesitate to kill her... Whereas he was making up a strong resolve to kill Naruto and couldn’t do it till the very end....
Tumblr media
This is another moment where Sasuke thought about Team 7 and yet exclusively cutting off Naruto out of the picture as if he want to keep Sakura and Kakashi by his side.... And yet,
Tumblr media
When the entire shinobi alliance was about to explode, the thought of Kakashi and Sakura hasn’t even crossed this moron’s mind....
Tumblr media
And you are telling me that Sasuke was truly thinking about Team 7 as a whole when he was fighting Killer Bee when in reality he never gave 2 shits about Sakura or Kakashi at any point??? 
It’s very hard for me to believe that he was thinking about Team 7 here. This is me talking from a Non-Shipping POV. And that’s why it frustrates me.
I’ll leave this at here... Probably my other post will explain this way better. 
-
Every character in Team7 has it’s own agenda to like that team and not everyone are connected to each other strongly like they show in Movies.. Kakashi being the sole exception for this.
This shitty team 7 is filled with Assholes who has their own agenda to like this Team for their own selfish reasons... When push comes to the shove, everyone will prioritize whom they feel important to them.... Naruto included. 
Atleast Kakashi won’t do that. 
This is what I mean by Kakashi being the sole exception for this.... And that’s why this team sucks at many levels. 
But it's kinda funny that fandom often portrays Kakashi to be nosy and cohesive in Team 7 business although Kakashi imo is even more aloof than Sasuke toward Team 7.
Well, I never understood this either. The Fan Arts always goes above and beyond to show a Fanon version of Team 7 but in reality, I never once saw a great Team Work from this Team. Like all the 4 working together as one. 
It was always about Naruto and Sasuke’s show. While Kakashi provides some occasional support here and there..... and Sakura.... well.... Sakura. Nothing to say anything profound. She is the spoilsport of Team 7. 
Even in Boruto era, he has little to no input regarding Boruto Sarada drama, which is honestly, good for him.
Correction.... 
Even Naruto and Sasuke didn’t give 2 shit about those drama... They were busy neglecting these little gremlins... So, why should Kakashi???? 
-
At any day, I would take an Honest moron (Kakashi) who keeps all his team members at the same level than 3 dishonest Assholes who uses Team 7 picture to think about specific person and ignore the rest as if they doesn’t matter... 
Well, when it comes to shipping, it’s okay... But when it comes to Team 7 as a whole though, I had to bash N and S.... Man!!! This dysfunctional team shouldn’t even exist... And the author rightfully disbanded this stupid team in Chapter 699 by making it all about N and S. 
Tumblr media
No wonder Naruto don’t even contact Sakura in Gaiden because he only considered Sasuke and Iruka as his family... Not Team 7.
Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura.... All uses Team 7 picture to think about Sasuke, Naruto and Sasuke respectively.
I know it’s not written explicitly that Sakura was only thinking about Sasuke whenever she thinks about Team 7 pic 
I know it’s not shown directly that Sasuke was thinking only about Naruto when he thought about Team 7 pic.
Since none of those are in Text... But only in Subtext. 
While with Kakashi, that’s not the case.

Reunion Part 1
It started with the small things. Little pieces that didn't fit into the puzzle of Iji's life as he saw it. He was raised as the sole inheritor of Blackfin's legacy, the first Julien grub in thousands of sweeps. But if that was true, who was this Solans that Leo had mistaken him for? If he was just another fuchsia, it would be understandable. His horns weren't very unique and Leo was seriously faceblind. But it was the fins he recognized, those trademark black fins from the Julien bloodline. And that left a nagging thought in the back of his head.
A nagging thought that drove him to research. With Solans' name and rank in hand, Iji started searching through Fleet records with a fine toothed comb. Easier than you'd think when your boyfriends are a rebel and an ex-soldier who knows where they were they were stationed. Pulling up their record, he stops and stares at the screen. The face looking back at him from the file photo could be his reflection, were it not for the long hair and Fleet uniform. Buckling down, Iji begins to read.
Given to the care of a Fleet general after emerging from the caverns, Solans Julien was raised in the Fleet and enlisted nearly as soon as they could hold a weapon. No incidents until after an early promotion to lieutenant, when Solans received several misconduct write-ups. Apparently for physically removing superior officers from harassing their lowblood subordinates. That bit made Iji smile, at least whoever this was wasn't a total ass. The last two reports were more concerning, one for major injury and one for death.
The major injury report involved a transport vehicle crash and Lt. Julien receiving several implants and two prosthetic limbs. Not the worst that could happen crashing a spaceship, and no one else was injured. The death report was concerning in its vagueness. No cause of death, no body returned to the ship, no information besides a date and a planet. If Blackfin had taught him anything useful, it was don't assume anyone is dead without proof. Of course, she probably meant it in regards to murdering other heirs and not tracking down a secret sibling.
He grits his teeth, beginning his search of the planet in official and unofficial records. Fleet, rebel, criminal, anything he could get his hands on. A frontier settlement, shuttered shortly after the alleged death of Solans Julien due to hyper aggressive local fauna. A rebel smuggler had recorded moving an injured fuchsia off planet on their final trip, worried they might have been a fleet trap but unwilling to abandon an injured troll in a dying colony. A few perigees later, falsified documents under a new name with a matching image. Finally, a name.
Synthe Ithyzr. God, that's a bad fake name.
Awful as the name may be, it leads Iji down a useful path. Synthe has some scarce social media, mostly posting what clubs they'll be at or new songs. Their website has little more than a music library and a business email, but their Chitter has a few selfies. A few with a familiar looking troll, a smaller fuchsia making goofy faces. Where had he seen her before?
Iji rolls his chair back and runs a hand through his hair, pulling out his palmhusk to try and jog his memory. And there it is. An old text from Leo, just a picture of his brother's kid and that bubbly troll from Synthe's Chitter. Sure enough, there's a troll with horns that mirror Iji's in the background, drinking from a raspberry mug. The last piece of the puzzle, falling into place.
He grins, shutting his computer and getting up from his chair. As Iji grabs his bag and heads out the door, he dials Leo to ask for backup.

RP meme from Scream Queens Ep 1 "Pilot" & Ep 2 "Hell Week"(Note: Offensive content, use at own discretion)
Something really bad happened.
Did you just get your period all over yourself?
This isn't my blood.
Who told you you could have a baby here tonight?
I'm sure I can walk if I can just get some Gatorade.
I don't care if you can walk.
How are we supposed to get you to the front door without everyone seeing you all gross and postpartum?
No one wants to see that at a party.
This is super embarrassing.
I didn't even know I was pregnant.
You guys, they're playing "Waterfalls."
Is that a baby? Amazing.
I am not missing "Waterfalls" for this. "Waterfalls" is my jam.
Give the baby some mojito to quiet it down.
How do you know she's dead?
These are my minions. I don't know their names. I don't want to know their names.
I have a colonic at 10
Life is a class system.
Oh, still a lot of puke to scrub.
Yeah, you have an amazing skill at telling people what they need to hear.
I'm sorry. Did I ask you to pull down my panties and blow a compliment up my butt?
I hate sororities, and I hate you.
First of all, I'm not a lesbian.
You see, out in the real world, people just don't talk that way to other people. It's not normal.
Well, that sure sounds suspicious.
No one forced that goat to get as drunk as it got.
Historically, short people are sneaky backstabbers, like Napoleon or Paul Shaffer.
I could actually handle that you're built like a Thai ladyboy, but what I can't stand is that you think you're my heir apparent.
Don't you want me to spray-tan you?
I would honestly rather not have you around.
The police still can't figure out who filled that tank with hydrochloric acid.
It's good enough for me, and the D.A., who, last I heard, considers the case closed.
What is that skirt?
Your organization might want to find a lawyer.
I'm a pretty smart cookie.
I would not get personal with me, sweetheart.
I don't fight fair.
I am sentimental.
Look, girls are vicious, okay?
I don't have any of my own memories.
Just like we planned. Three-second silent hug, and then you leave.
Ooh, somebody call CSI, because there was a murder scene in that bathroom.
Someone puked in the sink and I'm pretty sure I saw an actual ringworm climbing up the wall. I'm not afraid of anything, but that bathroom scared the crap out of me.
This is gonna be a year of infinite possibilities.
Hold this. It's too heavy.
You didn't knock!
Look at them. They're the dregs of society.
Each one of these gashes is worse than the next.
She smells like hot dog water, and probably sprained her neck giving blumpkins down at the local bowling alley.
Look, I'm not saying that all heterosexual sex is rape. I'm saying all heterosexual sex is gross, and that deep down, every woman knows this.
All that girl's after is a whole lot of bikini burger.
Hey, girl, can I just ask you, what's up with your outfit?
God knows what they're talking about, basic bitches.
What fresh hell is this?
I need you to stay popular, 'cause if you want to stay at the top of the list of the pieces of ass I'm getting, there's criteria. And the criteria is you got to be popular.
Okay, I'm gonna stop you right there, because I'm getting really pissed off.
Stop fake crying.
Anyone you dated would be popular. I mean, they would be popular because they're dating you.
My ego, it's super strong, ok, but it's not strong enough that I can just go around dating garbage people.
Like, yes, I could find a random girl who wasn't popular, and, yes, if I started dating her she would then become popular.
But you said you loved me.
I do sort of love you.
I would love you a lot more if other people loved you, too.
Okay, I need you to leave because you're bumming me out
We're just trying to have a nice day hitting golf balls at hippies.
Pretty girls, like you and me.
That's why I'm gonna burn your face off.
Ugh! You burned the milk!
Next time, I get you fired, or worse.
Actually, I just want a regular coffee. Those white girl pumpkin spice lattes annoy me.
I like to think of myself, uh, as an investigative reporter.
I had to get a restraining order.
I tend to get a bit passionate about things.
Look, you intentionally led me on.
You kept acting like you liked me just so you could humiliate me.
Enter, ye who dare.
I love a creepy collage.
It's about kicking the living crap out of someone when they disrespect you.
I was just in your room, where I noticed you have a sizeable shrine with evil burning candles, photos of me with my face scratched out and pairs of my stolen panties.
How about I just drown you in it?
Well, of course she's dead! You just burned her face off!
You don't die from getting your face burned off.
There's a dead woman in your kitchen.
I'm going to the authorities.
That's not how I saw it. And my witnesses agree.
You're an awful person.
Who wants cocktails?
How did my life turn into this?
Have you seen the way girls dress on this campus?
I'm sitting in the same office I used to throw bricks into.
You're awful in bed. Are you aware?
I'm gonna take a pair of your panties.
I'm gonna barf on your face unless you get out of here.
Try to figure out who gave you such disgusting mommy issues.
You loaded a dead body into a freezer.
What are you proposing?
I want to help you with your exposé, secretly feed you info.
You need eyes on the inside.
I don't know what to do with the body.
Are you saying dead bodies don't turn you on?
You are so lame, you know that?
God, I love all that death stuff.
Show me the body.
Show me the dead body.
This blood oath will ensure solidarity among us. We are all related now.
I just Googled "blood oath" and this is what came up.
What does this oath even mean?
I just need you all to not say anything about what happened, and I figured a blood oath was cheaper than buying you all presents.
Wait, what about STDs?
Idiot, you don't get STDs from blood oaths.
You get STDs from dirty toilet seats and drinking the water in Mexico.
Um, "STD" stands for "sexually transmitted disease," which means that it's transmitted sexually.
When were you in Mexico?
You know what, forget the blood oath.
I can't stay silent!
I'm calling my mom, and I'm going home.
Okay, Pissy Spacek, you and I have a few differences we need to iron out.
I want you to be one of my minions.
It's the gateway to the top of the heap.
You put on a good front, but you're miserable.
Don't you think any of that has anything to do with the fact that you've created an atmosphere based solely on negativity and raw ambition?
Can we talk for real for a second, please?
I mean, you're so confident without being mean. What antidepressants are you on?
Don't you see that all that's happened isn't a crisis? It's an opportunity.
Yeah, no, I tried. See, I really tried. But all of this flowery, peace-on-Earth crap, it makes me want to puke.
You haven't even seen half of what I'm capable of!
Totally spit in your coffee, bitch.
I don't mean to be a contrarian, but I'm enjoying this.
Is that killer noises or am I hallucinating?
I'm gonna ask one more time, will you speak up?
What can you tell us about the murder?
There's an exodus right now.
The risks are real, but we need to close ranks.
I don't feel comfortable with a man protecting me. It's representative of the patriarchal, post-colonial culture that encourages violence against women.
We buy a pig and feed it the body. Pigs will eat anything.
Don't go skating on those poop lagoons, because if you fall in, you'll drown in the poop and come springtime, there'll be nothing left of your body.
Here's what you should do. Pulverize her teeth, burn off her fingerprints, and disfigure her face. Once her body is unrecognizable, we can create an incision on her inner thigh and drain out all of her bodily fluids. That'll give us more time to deconstruct the body.
Truly grinding down a body takes a lot of work. You need a really good food processor, and you run the risk of fouling the plumbing, which is why you should only do it if you know how to clear out meat and bones from a drain pipe.
I'm willing to help in any way possible.
You're obviously a psychopath and those ideas are insane!
Why are you trying to terrify us?
Can I call you Mom?
I feel so loved and protected by all of you.
Actually, it's a new pop culture trend where young women desperately in need of role models call other girls they look up to Mom.
I thought you'd be cool with it.
I mean, I did just give you several ways to dispose of a body.
Okay, fine. Just stop talking.
You are so friggin' creepy!
Someone just mowed off a deaf girl's head in our backyard.
I mean, as you can see, I'm not licensed to carry a sidearm.
Wait, so you don't have a gun?
I have pepper spray. And I have a walkie talkie that I can use to call the police, who do have guns.
What good are you?
Get the hell out of there. Run away, real fast.
Now, I would give you my number, but my cell phone is off right now.
If you want the place clean, maybe you shouldn't have burned the maid's face off.
Don't you wonder what's in there?
People have been whispering about that house for years, that it's haunted, that something really bad happened. I mean, there's no way there isn't some real-life story behind it, right?
I'm gonna have to break in.
I mean, I don't think anyone's gonna get killed in the 30 minutes we make out, right?
Can you stop talking?
You're kind of ruining whatever was good about it.
Please try to understand the situation I'm in.
I don't give a rat's ass about your job.
You know, I find good parenting incredibly attractive.
You're a snoopy little bugger.
Whose bloody clothes are those?
Supposedly, it was a super fun party.
We're all gonna pay for this.
I think it's all crap. Just a myth.
What happened to the baby?
Sometimes I picture myself like Derek Jeter, you know?
I'm gonna choke you out.
There's a serial killer on the loose.
Please don't say you want to choke me.
I'd love having sex with your corpse.
I'm sorry. This isn't working for me.
Well, I sort of am your boyfriend, and I'm protecting you by having sex with you.
No! I don't need a man to protect me.
How could I have wasted this much time?
Is my self-esteem really that low?
I'm sorry. I think we need to take a break.
I need you to leave right now!
You know, it would really help me feel better if I could just crawl into bed with you for a few minutes.
Are you gonna touch my wiener, or you gonna leave my wiener alone?
I'll leave your wiener alone.
Where are your hands?
He has a huge boner!
Why don't you go in there and ogle his big old boner?
Okay, uh, first of all, I'm not gonna go ogle his big old boner, because I'm not gay.
Look, I'm sorry everybody wants to have sex with me. Okay? I can't help that.
I'm hot. Everybody wants to get with this. Women, men, animals in the zoo, plants, probably.
You're gonna have to go right now, 'cause I am breaking up with you.
Excuse me, I broke up with you!
I regretted what I said, and I just wanted to come here and tell you that I am so sorry.
Well, I accept your apology. And now I'm breaking up with you.
Do you know why I'm breaking up with you?
You can't deal with how hot I am.
Sorry, I just broke up with you.
Can you please put some clothes on?
Um, they said, uh, I shouldn't be alone, you know, in case I fall asleep and die.
Can I just get you a robe or something though?
So you're saying I'm the killer?
Okay, this isn't about me thinking you're boyfriend material.
God, I was so gonna go to third base with you tonight, too.
What if we stapled their earlobes?
Private like the parts on a man you like putting in your mouth?
I want to publicly come out as gay on my own.
I mean, you guys have to accept everybody, right?
I actually think that's illegal.
I will come after you, do you understand that? I will destroy you.
I trust you'll consider my offer.
Name one bad thing that ever happened at a Best Buy parking lot.
You're just, like, super attractive.
Um, well, I was trying to be inconspicuous.
It's better than losing your life.
I have a thing for playlists.
Someone's got a poo belly.
Sweet Yeezus, I don't even know where to begin with you.
Bitch, I'm about to smack you so hard, your tampon's gonna pop out.
I heard screaming.
So you think the serial killer is still up there?
Upstairs to get the killer before he gets away!
You just said that you think the killer is up there, and that's where you want to go?
This is freakin' terrifying!
The killer is in the house! You hear me?
I need my damn inhaler.
What, am I supposed to be scared?
Don't even come out. We plan on getting drunk, and I don't want your bad attitude ruining it.
We're headed down to White Stallion to pick up some sluts, baby!
Yes, okay, I burned her slightly, but stop saying that I killed her.
That was a tragic accident.
I am a kind and devoted and loving friend to all.
I'm not some crazed psychopath.
Maybe you're the killer.
I will not be put on trial.
The truth is we don't know who the killer is, and, yes, I suppose it could be someone in this room.
You want to go first?
I banged, like, 50 chicks.
What took you so long?

All right Ghost and Pals fans I've got a Honey I'm Home theory:
The moth represents Norman's mother, and the song as a whole is a metaphor for being abused by religion.
Let me explain:
[This post contains discussion of religion/cults, abuse, insects, and human torture/experimentation]
Ghost said straight up that there's five new OCs in Honey I'm Home right? Exactly five. It's emphasized a lot.
Tumblr media
[Image ID: a screenshot from the description of Ghost's upload of Honey I'm Home that reads: "y'all get FIVE - not one, not two, not three, not four, not six, not forty-seven, but FIVE new ocs of mine so there's that". End ID]
That's *incredibly* specific, but it checks out. Mostly. Visually, there's five characters: Norman, their father the mantis, the moth, weird Redead god, Charon the spider, and the angel(s) we see a flash of in the outro instrumental. There's a sixth character mentioned in passing, though: Norman's mother. "The abandonment of scenery in the mind of mother," yeah? But that's such a minor reference, you're probably thinking. It's symbolic parallelism to the mentions of father in the first verse.
That's entirely possible, but with how deep Ghost's songs run I think it's more than that.
We can obviously say that Norman's mother isn't Norman, Norman's father, God, or Charon (seeing as Ghost confirms in the description that it's meant to be pronounced like the guy on the River Styx). Originally, I assumed that the disturbed angel we see in the end of the video was Mother, because of the parallel between the two "abandonment of scenery" lines (conflating Mother with the rearview mirror, ie the past). It would make sense, given the implied abusive situation Norman was in with his father, that his mother had passed, leaving him with no recourse or protection. The fact that the parallel to the rearview mirror is the **mind** of mother, though, is what throws a wrench in that.
On my first dozen or so watches I thought the moth was a corrupted symbol of Lucifer (the lightbringer as a creature that chases light regardless of consequence), like I read Charon as a corrupted symbol of Judas (instead of subtle and regretful betrayal with a kiss on the cheek, direct and presumably unrepentant sabotage with a kiss on the mouth). It makes sense with how a lot of interpretations of sympathetic Lucifer read: saying the exact same things as God, but demanding that right to be equal instead of paternalistic. Then I took a closer look at the visual symbolism:
Tumblr media
[Image ID: a screenshot of Honey I'm Home's pv: a moth entrapped in a spider's web. It's quoted as saying "So, come to me, we can change night into day." End ID]
Lo and behold, spiderwebs. I actually can't believe I missed that on my first few watches--from the moment we meet the moth, it's entangled in webs, as if it's trapped in the influence of Charon, our dear God-allied spider. Its exact words are echoed by God in the next verse, where he has the moth trapped. With how we see Charon and God allied, this paints the moth in a new light--it doesn't have agency, or at least not total agency. It is, at least in part, parroting what God has taught it.
The thing is, a spider doesn't force webs on you. You walk into them and get tangled. Moths chase lights, like God's solar-eclipse halo. In just the same way, people chase security and safety as a survival method, and scores of people turn to religion when they need spiritual security.
This is where Norman and his family come in. Picture this: you're stuck in a tense, harmful relationship, with someone who has the audacity to tell your child that the world "isn't for them," who feels the need to cut off your rapport to them (the umbilical cord is a link between child and mother, after all). When you look for help, there the church is, and you inch a little closer to the light, and a little closer--
And then you're ensnared, so much so the horrors of your memories are little more than scenery in your rearview mirror. It's wonderful enough you repeat your doctrine to everyone who listens, even if you don't fully analyze what it all means. It helped you after all, so why can't it help others?
There's even visual confirmation that the moth is an intrinsic part of Norman:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Image IDs: three seperate screenshots of Honey I'm Home's PV. One shows Norman normally, one shows Norman with his chest sliced open for vivisection, and one shows Norman in a different outfit with scars from where he was cut open. All three images feature prominent patterns of concentric circles of moth wings. End ID]
We see Norman prominently surrounded by moth wings, even after he's been vivisected and transformed. Nearly everything what visually significant about Norman changes: he's gained a halo, lost his bandages and any scars that were underneath, is showing way more skin, and has black scleras and no glasses. His posture is even inverted--in each shot he's lifting a different hand, and the early Norman is confident or vindictive while the second is meek or remorseful. And yet, the moth wings remain. They're in *identical* places in the two shots that have Norman at the center of the frame. The moth is a part of Norman, even after God's scooped him out.
Also worth noting is that Norman's transformation makes him more visually similar not to the angels, but to God himself.
Tumblr media
[Image ID: God as he appears in the Honey I'm Home pv. He is a gaunt figure with an eerie grin and dark circles instead of eyes. Black lines run down his cheeks like tears, and he wears loose, flowing robes that expose one shoulder. End ID]
Tumblr media
[Image ID: the angel from the Honey I'm Home pv. They have the same dark eyes and tear lines as God and Norman post-transformation, but they instead wear a tight turtleneck. End ID]
Everyone allied with God, and Norman after his transformation--they all have the same eyes, with black scleras. Everyone except Charon has tear tracks. But Norman dresses like God more than anyone else-- his outfit appears to be made of the same material, and also exposes skin.
One last note before I tie this all together: vivisection is an INCREDIBLY loaded word. Scientifically, it's the act of making a v-shaped cut through a living organism's torso to view its innards--think a dissection on something living or a highly invasive biopsy. But just Google the word, and the connotation becomes immediately apparent: vivisection, as a term, is chiefly used in biomedical trials on animals...or to refer to illegal organ harvesting and medical torture in humans. The word is specifically used when referring to several different kinds of unethical human experimentation, which I'm not going to go into because I would rather not be triggered this late at night. Needless to say, Norman is straight up not having a good time with whatever's been done to him, even if you ignore the shot of post-vivisection Norman looking something awful.
So what does this all mean? Literally, we see the tale of a boy running from an abusive home life into the arms of a God and a spider who transform him for their own purposes against his will. Metaphorically, it's how many religious organizations and cults treat the disenfranchised. They lure victims in with promises of safety and light that are impossible or too good to be true. But if a person is desperate enough for help, they can be made to believe anything--that your abusive father can be knocked aside with enough prayer, that your God can turn night into day. A normal church gives you shelter and lets you out at your leisure. An abusive church or a cult blackmails you into staying, by threatening your eternal soul, or your possessions, or by giving you the kiss of death from a poisonous spider named after the man who ferries you to Hades. So, if you're trapped, you stay, and cave to more and more demands, until you're hollowed out and made into the image of what they want you to be. And many people extracting themselves from this kind of abuse report gaslighting--that they were convinced by their spiritual leader that the world was against them, and that the only place it's safe to be is in the fold, away from the world and from retaliation by the people who say they love you. It's just that much easier to be drawn in if you're following in your family's footsteps.
I can't wait for the next song in this series, solely because of the angel we see at the end. They're clearly aware enough to be disturbed by what they're seeing--there's a good chance we'll see the other side of the coin, of how terrifying God and Charon can be.
But when it comes down to it, everything Norman does makes perfect sense. He looks for sanctuary, and he finds it. From his point of view, it probably didn't seem like that big of a sacrifice just to have somewhere he could call home. A twisted home it may be, but it's a home.

Ava & Nancy
Ava: Has he told you? Nancy: Yeah Ava: How are you holding up? Nancy: better than he is Ava: Not saying much but Ava: that's something Nancy: how are you holding up then? Ava: It's been, a rollercoaster implies that it's in any way on the rails so not that, something as up and down and side to side Ava: tornado, perhaps Ava: but it's far from about me so I'm just here, you know Nancy: I know what you mean Ava: It's more to do with you than me Ava: so, what did he say exactly? Nancy: You know what he's like, just coming out with it Nancy: there's nothing for me to argue with Nancy: maybe if I had a clue then but now Ava: Yeah Ava: but none of us did Ava: I think mum was probably right, even if that's fucked Ava: taking it to the police wouldn't have done anything Nancy: She'd had talked her way out of it, his word against hers and he doesn't come across well when he's upset Ava: Exactly Ava: it's one of those legal grey areas Ava: morally black but you know Ava: can't get charged for that Nancy: I feel like shit, if I hadn't left it wouldn't have been her and none of this would be happening Ava: I know, but you have to try not to think like that Ava: she picked him, really Ava: he was angry and upset, with you, yeah, but Rio too and you know, everyone and everything Ava: but I don't think he would have pursued her, if he were in any state Ava: and she had her problems with you, but I don't think that's solely why she did it either Nancy: I know but he could've used any girl in Chelsea to get back at Rio, it was her because of me, that's all my thoughts keep coming back to Nancy: and no other girl would've used him like that for any reason Ava: We all let each other down Ava: sometimes you have to do what you have to do Ava: and then sometimes bad shit happens because of that Ava: Chloe wouldn't have felt the need to drop this if I weren't with James Ava: we could all just keep on not knowing Nancy: It's not your fault, Av, she hated you cos she hated me first Nancy: it's not like she's heartbroken over James Ava: Still, it wouldn't have happened, you were never going to be dating him Ava: but none of us can live beholden to her and the things she has over us, we shouldn't Ava: at least now, we aren't, she's played all her cards Nancy: Did Buster tell you she's already engaged?

Nancy: I asked, when I was at my angriest, before I really understood what the circumstances were Nancy: He wouldn't talk about her which either means he has and it didn't go well, or he's still working up to it Ava: She's going to know something is wrong, he can't hide anything from her Ava: and the test takes as long as it takes, I know he was waiting for that but I don't know how Nancy: Right now, I'm selfishly glad that she knows we barely talk so she won't ask me Ava: That's going to be Ava: not fun Ava: never mind how pregnant she is Nancy: Oh god, don't Nancy: I was going to come back for a while but maybe that'll make it worse Nancy: Like he'll think I'm just there to oversee his downfall or something Ava: You don't think that will happen, do you? Nancy: I don't think she'll leave him Nancy: But the old wounds this is gonna open up, even though nobody's disputing he didn't actually consent, when they're still dealing with everything that happened with Venus Nancy: add her hormones in and his way of reacting to literally anything Ava: Fucking hell Ava: you should come back, if you want to though Ava: regardless Nancy: Ri might need me Nancy: not that she'll admit it, obviously Ava: 'course Ava: I don't think it would hurt Nancy: I'm a crap babysitter but I'm a great person to vent at about him so Nancy: if I slag him off enough she'll start leaping to his defence automatically Ava: An evil-good plan Nancy: something good needs to come out of all the evil Ava: We can but try Nancy: Yeah Nancy: I know I need to Ava: Does feel better than doing nothing Ava: only a bit but Ava: still Nancy: I wish there was more I could really do, but it all just feels too late Nancy: inventing a time machine feels very above my capabilities, if I'm honest Nancy: Feel free to tell James I'm here if he ever wants someone to talk to about his monster of an ex Ava: I will Ava: you might have to open a hotline, by the sounds of it Nancy: That'd be a decent earner while I'm back Ava: Time is money, like Nancy: exactly Ava: Wonder what the wedding will be like Nancy: what I remember hearing about hers and James' sounded awful Nancy: but of course this one will have to be more stereotypically Italian Ava: fucked herself on flower girls too Nancy: unless he's got a big family she can insert herself into Ava: Heaven help him Ava: or she's already knocked up, the only way she does it is with a gun to her head and the groom's Nancy: has anyone checked he can speak enough English to know what's going on, like? Ava: I don't know if we've got the welfare team on that Ava: he looks pretty pleased with himself Ava: the pictures would really confirm your homosexuality for you tbh Nancy: Well that's disgusting Ava: If he was the teenaged pool boy, be all over that, obviously Ava: can only hope she's met her match this time Nancy: Even if she hasn't, like you said, there's no more she can do to any of us Nancy: And she'd never get the kids back if she wanted to try that as a last resort Ava: Not putting anything past her obviously Ava: but yeah, I can't see her trying and failing at that any time soon Ava: it's a small mercy Ava: she was no mother Nancy: Imagine having her as yours, oh my god Nancy: it makes me wanna hug mum Ava: Let's not get too crazy Nancy: the urge will have passed by mid-flight, don't worry Ava: Unless you have too many complementaries, of course Nancy: well yeah Ava: No one would blame you on that score Nancy: it doesn't help though Ava: The drink or the lack of blame? Nancy: Both Ava: Yeah Ava: not much in the party mood myself Ava: pity or otherwise Ava: though being forced to 'focus on my schoolwork' like that's remotely important right now is getting me close Nancy: Is there a brochure for the planet mum and dad live on cos I'm really intrigued by it? Ava: They really think they can keep me out of it Ava: Like I'm not the one who did the DNA test, like I'm not the one who got James and Buster to talk Ava: sure, I'll forget about that and write my politics essay, hold on 🙄 Nancy: I'll do your essay as long as you leave enough time for a thorough spell check Ava: You really wanna keep busy, yeah Nancy: Yeah Ava: You are allowed to be angry with him Ava: you know Ava: because he was a victim too doesn't mean you're not allowed to feel that Ava: even if it means you don't direct it at him, you don't have to try and repress it Nancy: I am angry at him, but I'm also so tired of being Ava: Damn genetics Nancy: He can't forgive me for going and I can't keep defending why I had to Nancy: cos he'll never accept that it's not entirely my fault, that I needed him to help me and he wouldn't Ava: He does though Ava: he's told me Ava: like you said, it's too late Nancy: He'll never tell me, so we'll only ever talk when he has good or bad news to give me Ava: Yeah Ava: it's because it doesn't change it Ava: like you said, no time machine Ava: getting him to admit that he wasn't there doesn't change that he wasn't, even if you want to hear it Ava: just like you explaining why you had to leave doesn't mean you stayed Ava: it's all just words, you know Nancy: Then how can we ever? Ava: Maybe you can't Ava: because that isn't a truce Ava: if neither of you is willing to leave your post there is no middle ground Ava: you actually have to be ready and willing to drop defending yourself and blaming each other Ava: and neither of you is, so Ava: that's that Ava: you can't make yourself give it up, clearly Nancy: It's so unfair Nancy: that everything turned out like this Ava: It just is Ava: you have to get to a place where you can just say that's what happened Ava: not attribute why's and who's to it, see it entirely objectively Nancy: maybe if I fly to Tuscany first and murder her Ava: Maybe Ava: you'll still hate yourself though Nancy: Thanks for the reminder Ava: Like you forgot Nancy: my phone alarm is set for hourly bursts of self-loathing, of course Ava: That'll be why you're tired Ava: can't even put that on him, eh Ava: unlucky, like Nancy: I'll have the luck of the Irish and all that good craic to fall back on soon enough, like Ava: 'Course Ava: be a blast Nancy: It always is Ava: It's been a while Ava: things might have changed Nancy: This family would have to catch some kind of break first Ava: Naturally, when I finish this essay, it'll all be worth it Nancy: Just make sure it's worth sticking on the fridge Ava: 'Cos that wouldn't fuck with the aesthetics Nancy: It's no finger-painting, sure Nancy: But if anyone needs the reminder that you're not a toddler it's mum and dad Ava: Really surprising they're not more elated to gain a ready-made grandkid Nancy: If the mother was anyone else, they'd be jumping for joy, no doubt Ava: Unless that mother was me Ava: of course Nancy: James has probably been well and truly scared off Ava: I reckon she's a pretty strong contraceptive Nancy: I'm in no danger but if you put me in a room with her I'd take the pill Ava: 💀 cyanide Nancy: or whichever colour gets you out of the Matrix Nancy: bye babe Ava: Careful Ava: that's what 'woke' lady and minority haters call themselves Ava: don't wanna get in that camp Nancy: is it? Ava: yeah, they're 'red pilled' 'cos they know 'the truth' Ava: the truth that feminism is a lie and all women are evil bitches, like Nancy: Oh great Ava: You accidentally been making loads of enemies over there?

💕Hi pretty gang,
* Before you continue reading this blog, I want you to ask yourself —
If you were presented with two choices, to remain or evolve what would you choose? Wait! hold on to your answer.. Ill get back to that later..
Ladies, WELCOME to the "IFP 21 day Challenge!"🦋
I Feel... Pretty is a self-awareness/self-care blog which was created to help you feel good on the inside, this challenge is going to make you feel good on the outside!
Many of us have a different perspective OR opinion on what a challenge might be so I chose one definition that will help us to all be on the same page.
chal·lenge
/ˈCHalənj/
a questioning or expression of doubt about the truth or purpose of something, or the right of a person to have or do something.
____________________________________________
During this challenge you will be tired, you'll say "I can't do this anymore" and want to give up BUT ill be there to remind you that you can do this! You cant give up, when was the last time you did something for yourself? Exactly!
This will be solely for you, doing something you didn't think you could do. You will feel better both mentally and physically -- not to mention how much your skin will be glowing from detoxing and eating clean.. Talk about feeling pretty honey!
Here's the plan for the next 3 weeks;
WE will work out for 18 CONSECUTIVE days for 1 hour a day, the remaining 3 days we will use as a rest/cheat day.During this challenge my rest day will be Saturday and I will be giving up baked goods, meat and pasta. I will stick to plan and eat 3 healthy meals a day for the next 3 weeks --
I am asking that you to choose a rest day and give up 3 foods as well! Reach right? lol I know!
Sunday I will be posting another blog, that will include the first weeks worth of workouts in detail, 3 different detox waters and two 3 day meal prep plans totaling out to be 6 days of healthy eating. Now! its going to be super hard to stick to this but, you have to be stronger than your best excuse, you can do this!
Prior to the challenge if you feel comfortable, I'm asking that you send me a before picture so that we can compare our amazing results at the end of the 21 days! If you guys are interested I'm also open for group workout sessions..
The challenge will start on 10/21/2019 and finish on 11/11/2019 -- that gives you about 4 days to get your shit together.. Sooo, I guess that brings us back to the question I asked you in the beginning..
What will you choose.. to evolve or remain?
🦋💕✨

8 Online Retailers You Should Never Order From
Tumblr media
Even those folks UN agency think about ourselves savvy once it involves on-line looking is also liable to the most recent spherical of compelling e-commerce scams flooding the web.
That's as a result of AN array of on-line retailers primarily based abroad (frequently in China) square measure tempting our budget-minded vogue consciousness with deals that seem eye-popping sensible, on garments that square
 measure right trend and super cute… per the photos accustomed to market them.
But it seems — as several recent examples have shown — that those deals will merely be too sensible to be true, and people persuasive photos square measure simply ripoffs from legit retailers.
MORE FROM WOMAN'S DAY
We created Nina Nesbitt Say A Naughty Word 😈
Burned shoppers report a variety of issues like receiving things manner off scale from the dimensions they ordered, waiting months for things to arrive (when the event that they'd needed the wardrobe had long past), to discovering the item was unsatisfactory — however, finding the comeback method high-ticket or not possible. Some even report having their MasterCard data purloined and used abroad when the acquisition.
Even the execs are not proof against the pull of those sites: shopper and money-saving knowledgeable Andrea Woroch says she too fell victim: "I ordered a piece of jewelry that took nearly 3 weeks before it came across my house and therefore the price to come back ship these things created the comeback method nearly pointlessly!"
Justin Lavelle, the communications director for the on-line background check platform BeenVerified, says patrons should mind. "There square measure several overseas wear corporations these days giving [what they advertise as] beautiful and classy garments for next to nada," he says. "They show pictures of the garments on models that look wonderful. however what you see on their web site and what you get square measure sometimes 2 various things — low-cost materials, chimerical filler, and not possible returns and refunds."
Lavelle advises shoppers to shield themselves by jutting to well-known U.S. corporations — and firms with positive reviews. Then, he suggests, familiarise yourself together with your chosen company's filler chart, moreover as its come back policies, to create certain the window is satisfactorily long to finish a dealing.
Jeremy Gin, UN agency is that the co-founder and corporate executive of the review tool SiteJabber, adds that buyers ought to use caution once coming into MasterCard information. "We continually advocate that if you are doing plan to get from an internet merchandiser, use a serious MasterCard with robust fraud protection," he says. "Your Mastercard company is AN ally if one thing goes wrong. {you will|you'll|you'll be able to} kindle a chargeback and that they can shield you from different unscrupulous charges."
Gin additionally suggests following your gut once tiny details appear off. "Check all foreign sites for professionalism: Typos, unhealthy synchronic linguistics and poor style will all be indicators of an internet business that may not supply its customers decent expertise."
ADVERTISEMENT - CONTINUE READING BELOW
Overall, all of the consultants we tend to interviewed echoed an equivalent refrain: "You sometimes get what you acquire," and "If it appears too sensible to be true, it in all probability is."
With that being aforementioned, here square measure some corporations to steer further from in spite of what. (Of note, many square measures in hand by an equivalent shady and shape-shifting company Shenzhen Globalegrow E-Commerce Co. Ltd., additionally referred to as world Egrow.)
1. TwinkleDeals.com
Better Business Bureau cites nearly $15,000 in claimed losses from this merchandiser. On SiteJabber.com, 313 of 460 total reviewers provide the corporate only 1 star. One reviewer noted, "I have ever before seen quality this poor. clothes were missing hems, sections of cloth were hanging out of appears, sizes were off by an excellent deal. the clothes didn't operate as wear on a basic level. do not even attempt to come back the things."
2. Wish.com
This is not a BBB-accredited company, tho' the bureau registered 235 complaints about it over the last 3 years. The decision the corporate out for advertising and sales problems, charge and assortment issues, delivery problems, warrant issues — however most of all for issues with the product (with 177 of the reviewers registering such complaints).
3. FashionMia.com
Of nearly one,600 reviews on SiteJabber, nearly 900 provides it the bottom doable rating. Among the everyday complaints is a filler that is manner off the scale. "Even tho' I ordered size, the garments all gave the impression of they were created for 10 years old!" one reviewer noted.
4. SammyDress.com
Better Business Bureau has not licensed this China-based business, and offers it AN F rating (yes, on a scale that goes up to A+). The bureau has issued AN alert against the corporate when the bureau tried to contact it in a shot to develop a report, however, the post workplace came the mail.
5. Rosegal.com
SiteJabber reviewers slam this company, with over three,000 reviewers giving it a pathetic one-star rating out of 5. On Reddit, folks talking concerning the corporate complain of ill-fitting, poorly created merchandise, and decision the full factor a scam. "I honestly wouldn't even present these 'clothes' to Goodwill, as they're not solely stick-in-the-mud, they're not even useful as real wear," one Redditor wrote. "Paper skinny and ridiculously assembled, their things square measure the equivalent of one thing you may win at an edge carnival."
6. DressLily.com
A meager a few hundred reviewers on SiteJabber provide this company a satisfactory rating; over two,000 of 3,000 reviewers provides it one star. alternative words from reviews embody "trash," "fraud," "ugly," and "thieves."
7. BeckyDress.com
While SiteJabber contains so much fewer reviews for this web site — a hundred and fifty compared to many thousand for a few of the opposite businesses on this list — most of these provide the bottom rating doable. folks cite receiving a product that looks nothing just like the photos on the company's web site, created shoddily enough to represent fraud.
8. Zaful.com
This is not a BBB-accredited business, tho' it will receive an AN F rating from the bureau. Nearly 600 reviewers out of 830 on SiteJabber provides it the bottom doable rating, citing problems like "cheap quality" and "refused to resolve a mistake." It appears like Zaful ought to be renamed "awful" supported client expertise.
