The fact that Dee Wallace and Chris Mulkey are both still alive and actively working and could both come back and play Monroe's mom and dad on Grimm makes me simultaneously giddy and really disappointed that it will never happen...

Fourth MLM Ship Bracket Propaganda Submissions

Below you will find all of the submitted and approved ships for the Fourth MLM Ship Bracket Tournament along with the form to submit further propaganda at the bottom

This is another opportunity to submit propaganda for your favorite ships. Wether you were unable to submit propaganda for them in the initial form or you spot your favorite ship who has no propaganda submitted. Ships with a strikethrough have propaganda submitted, I will continue to update this post as propaganda is submitted. I will accept further propaganda for ships with already submitted propaganda but please prioritize those with out.

The goal is to have propaganda for all ships but I understand that may not be possible. Therefore I will be leaving the form open for a few weeks to see if we receive propaganda for at least half the ships.

Note: Please reach out to me if you spot any mistakes in character or fandom names, even if it is only formatting or spelling issues.

Shelter: Wolf's Jaws

UNION DROPSHIP SUMMER LIGHTNING OBERON VI ORBIT CLAN WOLF INVASION CORRIDOR 30 SEPTEMBER 3049

Femme day.

It took a while to come fully to consciousness. Shelter was far too groggy to make sense of any of her thoughts. Everything was loud and angry. She thrummed with a deep, sorrowful ache. She didn't want to wake up. If she woke up, she'd remember what made her so sad.

Eventually her audio sensors came online. It was quiet in the room. Only the soft beep from a medical monitor broke the silence. All the noise was in her head. The sounds of explosions and rending metal.

The War Griffins were dead.

Ariel. Breck. Susanna. Finch. Wallace. Liana. Both Katherines. Shelter went down the list, all twenty-four pilots of the War Griffins, primary and secondary, two for each machine. But she couldn't stop there, could she? Daisy. Chuck. Maribelle. Norton. Evelyn. On through the members of her team, then through the rest of the technicians. Then the support personnel. All almost certainly killed when the enemy had overrun the Dao Sing Plain base. Dead gods, she didn't even know some of the people in administration. She was the only one who could remember them, and she didn't... If she couldn't, then...

Her eyes burned hot. Tears flowed, soaked into bandages on the left side of her face. She lifted her arm to wipe them away and felt the weight of an IV shunt and the tug of more bandages at her shoulder. There was the ghost of agony somewhere beneath the fog as she moved. She must have been put on some serious painkillers.

Her hair. She'd shaved off all her hair.

But the War Griffins were dead. It had been an appropriate sacrifice.

The 1st Oberon Guards, too. Razor Lance had been the last operating unit of 15th Company. If Rieck and Razor Two had made it out, then they and Shelter were likely the only survivors of a massacre.

I hope Hendrik Grimm III and his pirate lordling toadies got stomped flat by a Catamarauder. If there's any justice in the universe, that'll be the end of the Grimm line. But even this thought wasn't enough to cheer her.

The hiss of a door sliding open caught her attention. Shit. She was going to have to open her eyes.

The harsh artificial lights pierced her brain at the first crack of her eyelids. Her involuntary mewl of pain choked off in her throat. A shadow moved from the door to the side of the bed, followed by others. The figures waited while Shelter adjusted to the light. When she opened her eyes, she saw three people in grey jumpsuits. One, a woman with auburn hair tied back in a tight bun, had gold pins with two red stars at each side of her collar. The other two, a tall, blonde woman with a turned-up nose and a short man who wore a short, curly mohawk and a close-trimmed beard, stood a little back. The blonde's pins bore one star each, while the brunet had only the gold squares.

"Shelter, last of his family, quiaff?" the first woman asked.

Shelter's throat clicked as she swallowed. She tried again and finally mustered enough pliability from her larynx to speak. "Last of her family for now. I'm afraid it changes by the day."

"I am Star Captain Mila. With me are Star Commander Chastity and Warrior Hawk. We are three of the warriors you faced in Friday's battle. I have claimed you as a bondsperson of Clan Wolf. From now until your bondcord is severed, you belong to me. Do you understand?"

As Mila spoke, Chastity jotted notes on a handheld compad. Hawk's face was blank. Mila, however, was stern, her brown eyes as impenetrable as ironwood.

"Dress yourselves up with whatever goofy names you like. Still sounds like slavers and pirates to me." Shelter wished she could spit. She could only muster a dry cough.

Mila watched her for a moment before replying. "You speak as though you yourself were not a pirate serving a bandit king. Or perhaps you have not heard the old saying about glass houses and stones?"

"Not a pirate," Shelter growled. "Hate pirates. I hate Grimm."

The man poured water from a small pitcher into a paper cup and set it on the overbed table that sat at the foot of the bed. He placed the control remote for the bed on the table and wheeled it closer to Shelter. She stared, but his face remained impassive. She took the controls, adjusted the bed to a seated tilt, and drank the water greedily. There were only perhaps fifty milliliters in the cup. Shelter reached for the pitcher, but the man put his hand over hers. "Slowly this time," he said, his voice expressionless but warm. He withdrew his hand, and Shelter poured. As she did, she finally noticed the cord tied around her right wrist, loosely enough not to chafe. She drank her second cup more gently, flicking her gaze between the three warriors.

When she finished, Mila spoke again. "Why serve him, then? I am told that you are not a warrior by trade, but rather a technician. What drove you to take up arms to defend pirates?" Mila kept her tone even. The tension underlying her words, however, was plain.

Shelter closed her eyes and let her head drop back against the thin pillow. "I was defending my family. The War Griffins. We're a part of the 1st Guard, but we always wanted to be free again. Used to be mercs. I wanted..." She trailed off. Her head was beginning to throb. The pain meds were wearing off.

"Mercenary service is more honorable to you than piracy, quiaff?" This must have been Chastity. Her voice bore some of the snideness that Mila suppressed.

Shelter groaned. "I don't know what 'quiaff' means. But yeah. Mercs are free to live how they want, and they don't prey on innocent lives." She rubbed the bridge of her nose with her right hand. "Shouldn't I be talking to a doctor now?"

"You are being monitored by our systems and staff. Your injuries are minor. Is there something that needs to be addressed by a physician?" Mila asked.

Shelter winced as the throbbing grew stronger. "Painkillers are wearing off. I could use another dose. Head's killing me."

"If this is the worst of the pain you suffer in the near future, count yourself very fortunate," Mila said. "These questions are a courtesy. There will be more thorough interrogations to come. If you are not a warrior, how did you learn to operate a BattleMech?"

Memories washed over Shelter. Times she was brought into the administrative offices to see where her parents worked. Times she was allowed on her own recognizance, getting into places she shouldn't have, making friends with technicians, pilots, infantry, scouts, anyone who would talk to her. Signing up at sixteen, and how her parents had railed against her decision. They'd hoped to get her out of the Confederation and back to real civilization, back to the Lyran Commonwealth, where she could have a better life. Well, what if she wanted to make sure everyone got out? What if she wanted to save all of the War Griffins, not just one kid from a white-collar family pulling military paychecks?

Her first real boyfriend, a pilot who encouraged her to try out as a MechWarrior. Her first real girlfriend, a 15th Company scout who taught her how to handle sensor equipment and pentaglycerin. The qualifying trials to put her on the waiting list for an alternate pilot slot. She'd done her share of cross-training them, too. Showed them how to splice myomer, use a tech's diagnostic computer, reorient the factory wire harnesses on the Neil 6000 comms units from Defiance Industries because they always came in misassembled and would shake loose after a month and sometimes snap the soldering.

"I made friends," she said.

"Perhaps the caste mobility the other bondsfolk spoke of," Chastity murmured to Mila. "Within their touman, they have fewer barriers between warriors and the lower castes that serve them."

Shelter looked at her, winced again at the light. "Don't mistake us for the Dracs or the Capellans. We don't have castes." Not officially. But Grimm's attempts to legitimize the Oberon Confederation were more about appearances than equity. There were still haves and have-nots, and some of the haves sat on thrones while some of the have-nots performed forced labor in penal camps to which they'd been sentenced by corrupt magistrates.

Mila pursed her lips as she turned Shelter's words over. "You claim there are no castes, and that you, a technician, were trained in warrior's ways and equipment by warrior friends? This is common?"

"I don't know if I'd call it common. But I can't be the only one. I mean, you couldn't get that kind of cross-training if you were a civilian, but I was a corporal in the service. Signed up at the first chance I got."

"To convince your unit to desert the pirates and become mercenaries," Mila said. This time she couldn't keep the hint of a sneer off her face.

Shelter scowled. "To work to free my family, the company that raised me, from service to a tyrant whose grandpa turned coat from the Lyrans, went pirate, and forced the War Griffins to join his army."

Mila opened her mouth, but Shelter pressed on. "And now you've killed what's left of my family, and you're saying I'm your slave. So as far as I'm concerned, you're no better than Hendrik Grimm. In fact, you're lower than pirate scum like him."

The light exploded into fragments, and the room tilted. Something impacted Shelter's ribs. It took a few moments for her to realize that there hadn't been an explosion--she'd simply been struck by the back of Mila's hand. The force of it had flung her against the overbed table, which was now on its side in a pool of spilled water. The Star Captain was saying something, but Shelter's ears were ringing too loudly for her to make it out.

The three warriors filed toward the door. Star Captain Mila stopped, knelt by the fallen table, and picked up the remote. She snapped at Shelter's face to get her attention. "This is how you call a medtech." She stabbed the red button at the top of the remote, then tossed it harshly against Shelter's chest. The new bruise on her ribs screamed in protest.

Shelter slumped against the bed rail and wept as the Wolves left the room.

[princess-of-the-corner]

K, as of right now, I’m calling Koda’s dog Blue. I’m picturing her as a German Shepard-sized, wolf looking dog with blue-black fur, and yellow eyes. You may change her name, gender, breed, whatever. HOWEVER, I am going to post the list I ended up with, cause I hyper focused. It is now 1:30am. I need to SLEEP.

Whisper (Sonic the Hedgehog)

Moro (Princess Mononoke)

Hayate (Black Hayate, FullMetal Alchemist)

Jump (Page: Lady Knight Series, Tamora Pierce)

Ammy (Okami, video game)

Chibi (Okamiden, sequel to above)

Lucky (generic; also from Hawkeye/MARVEL)

Rex (the Wonder Dog)

Snowy (the Adventures of Tintin)

Streak, the Wonder Dog (Green Lantern)

Titus (Batman)

Ace (Batman)

Antoinette (Ouran High School Host Club)

Astro (the Jetsons)

Balto (movie, Balto)

Domino (102 Dalmatians)

Friday (Hotel for Dogs)

Gladstone (Sherlock Holmes)

Hubble (Good Boy!)

Junkyard (Race to Witch Mountain)

Luath (the Incredible Journey)

Shadow (Homeward Bound: the Incredible Journey)

in the end, it has to be a random reference to something Koda actually watched and liked, because he is blurting out a name at random so he Can claim her as his dog, so these random people won’t take her away. So, if you think of a better name, by all means, use that.

-

GOD there are so many good doggos to name her after. I think I might need to just kinda roll with writing the dog more before I pick a name? Sometimes animal names just happen as you vibe their personality.

“ La giornata del libraio comincia prima delle otto, quando le commesse dei negozi torinesi attendono davanti alle saracinesche ancora abbassate sotto i portici l'arrivo dei proprietari dei negozi. Uscito dal magazzino coi pacchi dei libri adorna rapidamente il chiosco arroccato attorno a una colonna dei portici, e nell'interno del chiosco, infagottato nel cappotto, rimane fino alle otto di sera. Poco per volta il freddo gli appanna la parlantina e gli cancella le idee, la parte del volto che fuoriesce dal cappotto è diventata violacea e non bastano le regolari corse al caffè d'angolo o i due passi battuti e ribattuti attorno alla colonna di cui è virtualmente proprietario, a dargli animo. Ogni tanto una richiesta specifica lo costringe ad abbandonare il chiosco per recarsi velocemente al magazzino, e allora lascia l'incarico della sorveglianza al commesso del negozio di fronte, che come ricompensa di questo servizio si accontenta di un libro giallo al sabato sera. Quando la sera fa affluire pei portici la gente in passeggio, molti sono coloro che si fermano davanti alle file dei libri usati, disposti secondo un ordine speciale per cui i vecchi clienti sanno subito riconoscere, tra gli altri, la novità arrivata in giornata. La media del venduto, almeno riguardo i libri gialli, si aggira sui quaranta giornalieri, e ora che si avvicinano le festività natalizie il libraio risfodera i classici della letteratura. L'anno scorso vendette, nei tre giorni antecedenti il Natale, 10 Promessi sposi, 15 Fiabe dei fratelli Grimm, 40 Dumas vari e più di mille gialli pubblicati anteguerra. Infatti i gialli violenti, senza mistero, senza poliziotto prodigio, hanno poco smercio, la gente preferisce ancora i Wallace agli Spillane, le complicate storie londinesi alle noiose brutalità delle avventure poliziesche americane. Anche il commercio delle riviste clandestine aumenta vertiginosamente nelle feste, e il contrabbandiere segreto, che rifornisce il libraio almeno una volta al mese si trova nell'impossibilità di ricoprire tutte le richieste. È costui un ragazzo di appena vent'anni, riformato alla visita militare, rigoglioso e astuto, quando fa visita al magazzino col suo pacco si diverte a rendere più pesante la sua presenza al proprietario del locale, che fa di tutto per toglierselo di torno. Il ragazzo è analfabeta e magari non è che il commesso di altri individui, tuttavia la permanenza in una città severa e schiva come Torino lo ha persuaso ad essere ben vestito e pettinato. A una ultima sollecitazione del libraio se ne va senza salutare. Sono le otto e comincia la smobilitazione dei libri, che ammucchiati sulle braccia e contro lo stomaco e il ventre del figlio che sorregge immobile il peso, verranno trasferiti dal libraio e dal giovane fino al magazzino. Solo alle otto di sera il giovane universitario arriva per dare una mano al padre in faccende. Arriva in automobile, e il lavoro da fare è di breve durata. Dopo mezz'ora, tirata giù la saracinesca, i due salgono in macchina e filano via, per i viali deserti della città. “

Currently reading: the Bible, charles spurgeon's morning and evening, and dracula via emails. last physical book was the monogram murders by sophie hannah bc it said AGATHA CHRISTIE in large letters on the cover and i was bamboozled. it was... mediocre. made me trust gillian flynn even less as a writer bc she was on the cover gushing about it

Currently watching: grimm, kinda?

Last thing I wrote: got a little flicker of inspiration for my blade runner 2049 fanfic "interlinked"

Rick is still watching, brow knit. “I still find it hard to believe no one’s looking for [K].” “Oh, I’m sure someone is.” Ana leaves the room and dims the lights. Rick follows her into her private quarters. “But it would have to be quiet,” she continues, sinking onto her couch. “His job was to kill me, no doubt. The only one who wants me found is Wallace, and I expect he would have made his move had he done so. So for now, I am a memory-maker with two dead men for guests.”

Current obsession: lockwood & co is starting to fade... whomst knows what will come next
