“I do whatever I want to, to ya

I'll nail your ass to the sheets

A pelvic thrust and the sweat starts to sting ya

I fuck like a beast”

Word Count: 3.1k

Fuck. Everyone had been getting on your goddamn nerves more than usual lately. Your prim and proper parents were harassing you about the one B you received in science, scolding you for being 'provocative’ by wearing too much makeup (it was light blush and mascara), and by daring to wind down with your friends once in awhile. Granted, they had no idea who your real friends were as they would blow a gasket if they knew how you spent many of your weekends under the overpass smoking cigarettes and weed with some of the local dirtbag kids and the hopeless junkies in your town who go there to get high.

Even your white bread, conventional boyfriend had been getting onto you about your pent up rage and choosing to partake in foreign substances to release it. He would drink with you at parties, but he was always the one who made you stop when you were starting to really have fun. ‘Just loosen up once in awhile, Jake. Jesus Christ,’ you would find yourself thinking bitterly. You couldn't take it anymore. Sure, your guilty pleasures aren’t exactly healthy, but you’ve been forced to conform to the monotonous life of your family and peers for so long that you were aching for something to help you escape.

You had heard of this guy in your school who sells more than weed and decided to hit him up for some uppers to try and channel that high into focusing on studying for the midterm. Your friend told you how to contact him, and before the day was up, you had discreetly dropped a note into his locker telling him your desires and the locker to which he could send the response. Your heart leapt when after your very next class, there was already a note in your locker signed by ‘E. M.’ and scribbled with instructions to meet him in the back of the library after school.

E. M. Eddie Munson. The kid who often caused a scene in the cafeteria or classes with his ruckus outbursts and theatrical lectures about one issue or another? Figures. He was intimidating with his dramatic personality and his overall appearance, but that sent flutters to your lower stomach as you thought about meeting with him face to face—alone. So you spent your last period of the day fidgeting nervously and not paying any attention to the lesson. When the bell finally rang, you headed for the bathroom to freshen yourself up while you waited for the hallways to clear a bit before you made your way down to the library.

It was pretty deserted by the time you arrived, with only a couple students at the front few tables looking through refrence books for whatever projects they had. The librarian was always occupied at the front organizing returned books or in her office, so the back aisle of the library had become the designated spot for drug deals and make out sessions. You tried to make yourself as small and quiet as possible as you slipped in through the library door and made your way down the side wall towards the back. No one paid you any mind so you were in the clear. As you rounded the corner to the back, your stomach flipped at the sight of Eddie leaning against the back book shelf and casually doing tricks with his switchblade.

He gave you a quick nod of welcome and flashed you with a knee buckling smile when he noticed you approaching. God, he looked good. His ripped black jeans sagged just a bit around his hips, despite the belt around them. You reckoned it was only there for show as he had hooked a decorative assortment of chains onto the metal rings on the belt, with little handcuffs serving as the clips. His dark mane of hair hung wildly around his shoulders in a very Eddie Van Halen way. Hah, funny coincidence. And, oh shit, was that a Mötley Crüe tee? They were pretty infamous in the rock and metal scene for being chaotic menaces always at the center of controversy.

As you got closer you noticed he had a few tattoos on his arms. Who the fuck would tattoo a teenager in this small town? You knew he was in a band, and he really embodied the rock star persona, from his look, to his mannerisms and attitude. Your heart raced being in his presence just by how chill he seemed, and you tried your best to match his laid back demeanor. You stopped in front of him, fiddling with the hem on the long sleeves of your sweater nervously as you raised your head to peer into his dark brown eyes. His gaze was captivating and rendered you speechless as he looked you up and down.

“So, what can I help you with, sweetheart?” Eddie grinned down at you in amusement. Sweetheart? Shit.

“I uh…I’m just looking for something maybe…to help, I don't know…” you trailed off as you glanced around anxiously looking for the words. “Something…like, an upper…or something?”

He seemed entertained by your shyness with the way he was eyeing you. You blinked back up at him to gauge his reaction and he was merely taking in your appearance with a smug expression on his face, the lines bordering his mouth etched deeply around his smile.

“What, like H?” he teased with a wide smirk. You gasped at him incredulously as you hugged your torso. As if you can be mistaken for some junkie? What about your pleated white skirt, your cashmere sweater and the white gold chain around your neck screamed ‘heroin?'

“No! Of course not! Not that strong! Just, maybe…something, stimulating?” you whispered urgently. He gave you a humorous chuckle at your exasperated reaction before looking up above you in faux contemplation.

“Alright, mama. I think I got what you need,” Eddie said when he looked back down into your eyes. He pushed himself off the bookshelf and turned around to where he had stored his metal lunchbox between some books. He reached in and pulled out a small Ziploc bag of round, white pills. “It’s uh, not quite smack, but it will make an impression.”

“W-What is it?” you asked timidly. You looked from the bag to Eddie, shifting your feet nervously. He raised his brows and looked at the pills in his hand before readjusting his stance.

“Well, that is your good ole’ government sanctioned amphetamine used to treat ADHD,” he grinned. “But a hit of this will have you hyper focused on whatever you need. Just go easy with it, though. Otherwise you’ll be up all night scrubbing your bathroom tile with a toothbrush.”

You smiled back at him sweetly, still holding your arms close to yourself as you get lost in his sparkling brown eyes. But you noticed that his eyes were tracing the shape of your pretty lips before stealing glances down at your chest. Your sweater fit tightly around your body, highlighting your generously endowed breasts; and if you were showing any cleavage, he probably wouldn’t be able to look anywhere else. You watched his gaze as you brought your arms up higher to cross them over your chest to conceal yourself more, but you were probably only making his mind race more.

“So…um, how much is it?” you asked quietly.

“The tabs? Uhhh,” Eddie was torn from his train of thought with your words and he shifted his footing to think of a price. He stepped back to eye your body up and down and you looked around in embarrassment as you waited for his response. “Hmm, you’re pretty small so I’m gonna recommend no more than 5mg. So that’ll be, let’s see…call it $25 for the bag. Should last you awhile.”

Damn, you never pay more than like $10 at a time for your weed, but of course this would be more expensive than pot. So stupid. Well you couldn’t back out now, since it was already Friday and the midterm was on Monday.

“Fuck…um, I didn’t bring that much…but, I really need this,” you said desperately, biting your lip nervously as you avoid making eye contact with Eddie. “Would…do you think…that maybe I could pay you…some other way?

You shut your eyes in embarrassment for a moment before timidly raising your eyes to meet his. He was standing there leaning against the bookcase with crossed arms, looking down at you with the the most cocky expression on his face. Fuck. What was this? Some cheesy porno movie where the ditzy housewife orders a pizza but doesn’t ‘have enough to pay him?’ He probably thinks you’re just another slutty cokehead who gives it up to any drug dealer. Eddie’s eyes trailed down to where you were biting your lip in anticipation of his answer and it makes him have to shift his legs.

“Don’t you have a boyfriend?” he said softly as his eyes narrowed at you. Shit. That’s right. You mentally kicked yourself for not thinking this through.

“Yeah, but…well, he’s so…soft,” you blushed as your secret thoughts formed into words. “He never wants to try anything exciting, and I’m…bored. I want to break up with him, but he just gets so jealous…”

You hung your head in humiliation at just confessing your disinterest in your boyfriend in front of a practical stranger. Eddie looked past your shoulder with narrowed eyes and a quizzical expression for only a second before he nodded like he just came to some mental conclusion, and the corner of his mouth tilted in a wicked grin. He stepped towards you and boxed you in against the opposite bookshelf, his one hand leaning against the panel of the bookcase with the other reaching his heavily ringed fingers to peel one of your long strands of hair off the front of your shoulder and discarded it on the ground. You licked your lips in a seductive manner as you shyly maintained eye contact. He smelled so fucking good with his cologne mixed with cigarette smoke and whatever heavenly shampoo he used. You could feel your panties just drenching in your arousal as he leaned in close to your ear, lips just barely ghosting over your skin and his long curls tickling your neck.

“Well, I can fight,” he growled darkly, and with one swift movement he had turned you around to face the book shelf and swiftly flipped up your skirt to expose your panties. You gasped in surprise and mock protested his actions at first, but the warmth you felt spreading between your legs at his aggressive handling was very telling. Your hands were supporting your weight on the shelf in front of you, and the books were separated just enough so that you could peek in between them to guard that the coast was clear. As soon as Eddie had spun you around, he made quick work of his belt and zipper, and was now pushing the lace hem of your panties down your thighs and kicking your feet apart slightly so he could position himself between your legs..

You tucked your bottom lip under your teeth in excitement, your wetness practically dripping down your legs as you waited for his commanding hands to find their place. He shifted your hips where he needed them before gripping onto your shoulder with one hand, and lining himself up with your weeping entrance with the other. Shit. This is so fucking primal, why does this feel so good? You inhaled sharply as you felt his tip slip through your folds and settle between your legs. You had to stand on your tip toes to allow him access, which he reminded you by assertively lifting you up by your hips.

“Good, you’re already soaked,” Eddie mumbled.

With the one hand on your shoulder, he bent you over the shelf while his other slowly guided his length past your slit. You hummed weakly at the sensation, before gasping loudly at him suddenly filling you up and bottoming out completely. Holy shit, this was really happening. You were getting fucked like a wild animal by Eddie ‘the freak’ Munson on school property, all for some drugs. It’s so wrong but why does it feel so right? You could barely contain your hushed cries and moans with every snap of his hips.

“Shut the fuck up, you want to get caught?'“ Eddie hissed as he stilled in you and reached around your shoulder to cup his hand over your mouth. You shook your head quickly into his palm before he straightened back up behind you. There wasn’t a whole lot of time to collect yourself before Eddie sped up his rough pace into your cunt. He rocked into you with enough force that the shelf on which you were leaning was wobbling and the books swayed dangerously. You reached through to grip the shelf from the back side to steady yourself and hopefully the books as well.

You could hear his satisfied grunts behind you, sending a thrilling jolt to your lower extremities and making your walls flutter around his firm length. Your boyfriend never manhandled you like that, and now you weren’t sure if you could ever go back to the boring missionary, lovey-dovey style love making with him. The way Eddie claimed your body like that was better than any drug he had to sell, and you reckoned you would probably be back for more—with just enough money that you came up short and had to pay him this way again. His relentless thrusting was fogging your mind and starting to send you over the edge.

You brought one hand to your mouth and bit down on your finger to stifle the pleasured moans. You could tell that Eddie was only using your cunt to get himself off, but that realization excited you and lit a fire in your belly to come apart around his cock. Your walls clenched around him as your knees trembled, and you could hear his cocky laugh behind you quietly. As your vision returned, you were still relishing in the sensation of him slamming into you with his determined rhythm and your jaw slacked open at the feeling.

“Silly girl…pull yourself together before someone hears you,” Eddie whispered gruffly as he gave you a few slow, deliberate strokes that really emphasized his size. Your eyes crossed and your eyelids drooped at the euphoric intensity of him sinking into you over and over. He’s one to talk. He was slamming into you with enough vigor that the soft clapping sound of skin to skin contact reverberated around the back aisle of the library. But somehow you could not care less at that moment while Eddie buried his thick member into your very core. He fucked you like he had been isolated on a desert island for years—hungry and desperate and just aching for release.

You had lost track of time in your fucked-out state. Your vision was blurred of everything but Eddie Fucking Munson and you just settled for laying your cheek down onto the shelf where every thrust nudged your head back and forth. Your mouth had relaxed to where your tongue lay lopsided and your saliva began to pool underneath you, and you didn’t give a fuck. His energetic pounding was the most glorious sensation you’ve ever experienced. It was sending you into ecstasy again and you didn’t even attempt to stifle your noises. Eddie bent over you again and put his soft lips against the shell of your ear.

“If I hear another sound from you, I’ll have to stuff that mouth full, okay baby?” he mumbled into your ear, using both a teasing tone and a tone of authority. He pulled back and moved his hands to grasp your hips like an animal and continued his self fulfilling strokes with what seemed like limitless stamina. You squeezed your eyes shut and focused all your concentration on keeping quiet while he drilled into you. The tension you were applying to his rock hard member made his hips studder as the blinding pleasure of your muscle sent him into a daze. His thrusts began to slow as he started to dispense his entire load into your used cunt. He stilled his movements and held your hips tightly against his as he buried his whole length in you to pump you completely full of his seed.

You could feel both of your bodies relax as he continued to spill into you. Fuck, his cock was still flexing, like he was dumping dozens of ropes into your poor hole. You shivered around Eddie’s cock as he slowly pulled himself out of you, leaving you open to drip a combination of your fluids onto the carpet below. As soon as you could close your legs, you hiked your panties back up to contain his seed before it could run down your legs. You flattened out your skirt and readjusted your sweater and hair while Eddie stuffed his dick back into his boxers and zipped himself up. Oh, God. You just let him cum in you! You didn't even try to stop him, you desperate slut.

“Yeah, here’s the pills, but uh…you can keep the rest of the cash,” Eddie laughed awkwardly as he tussled his long hair while handing you the small baggie from the metal lunchbox. “That fuck was more than enough for me…Oh, and uh…tell your boyfriend I hope he enjoys my contribution.”

He winked at you with a wide grin before leaning in to capture your lips in his in a deep kiss. He placed the Ziploc into your fist and left without another glance, eyeing down the pathway to check and see if anyone was around. He then casually exited the aisle without another word and headed for the door to leave the library while you took a minute to readjust your clothing so you could leave as nonchalantly as possible. Hopefully his excess seed would stay contained in your underwear until you could make your way to the bathroom and get yourself cleaned up. God, if these pills made you feel even half as good as you felt right then, you’d be hooked for life.

If you’ve made it this far, thanks for reading! If you like my writing, check out my other works.

[prof-peach]

if fans wanted to include peach in stuff they write, would that be okay? and how would they write peach's personality? aside from "FIGHT ME" anyway, i think that much is a given lol. i only really write the anime characters 'cause that's what i know, but it sounds like it'd be kinda fun to try making a version of ash that fits into this blog's universe! nerf'd Obviously, but i think she'd probably appreciate how hands-on he gets when training his pokemon!

Ok, I get a lot of these messages, and I often hear folks wanting to throw peach into their stories and comics and writings, and I will always simply ask that if it’s published online publicly, to be linked to it so I can snoop and enjoy the content too. If someone asks about her in your work, let them know about the blog I guess? But literally I love that people take this stuff, these characters and stories, and make new stuff with it. No ones making money off my work here? So where’s the issue? Go for it buddy, knock yourself out, I’m all for it.

For you, and all the others out there who want to add peach, and other characters to your world building, I will give you a detailed rundown of the main lot, and how they behave, what they do, how they function. You can use that, use bits, or use none of it, I do not mind at all. If you’re creating something, you’re in control, not me.

So, peach doesn’t actually fight people as much as you’d think. She’s very aware most cannot and do not want to do that, and so she likes to keep to herself with regards to that aspect of her life, she doesn’t ask to spar with people, or even bring it up at all, but people ask her all the time, even if they clearly would lose or become hurt should she miscalculate during the fight. She looks at people like they usually create problems, and often has a somewhat reserved nature to other humans. You have to work quite hard to get anything more than formalities out of her. She will dead-pan handle people with blunt and very to-the-point statements, aid whenever possible, but very quickly get back to handling the Pokemon she so carefully tends. Her focus is clear, she’s all about hard work, her very small select family, and the Pokemon.

Her brutal, loud and brash personality only comes out with friends, family, difficult humans, OR any Pokemon. She will joke and laugh and play with Pokemon, but clam up around humans, maintaining tight body language and generally will be a little cold by regular standards. She does however have some weaknesses in this emotionless shield she puts up. When peach was young she was always angry, which swung so fast to sadness, back and forth. Her teenage years it just got worse and worse, it was crippling at points. She is to this day, full of fire and rage, even sadness, but now she has learnt to control it, to use it. When she sees that in others, it’s familiar, and she is pushed to drop the front, and be very real with the person. Underdogs I suppose, people who get bad reps, but deserve the same as everyone else. She can’t ignore it.

Once you start to pry open her personality, you’ll find she’s a lot more laid back and fun than originally appeared, you just have to work hard to find that side of her. She will meme reference, can’t dance to save her life, loves her coffee, and can be caught in quiet contemplation while gardening. This hobby is her calmest, and often is why she can stay so level headed when her quiet rage boils up again. Without time outside she will become grouchy, a little snippy, and lethargic. Will not go in the ocean for any reason other than life or death, is fine with ponds and rivers, or water at wading height. Likes the rain.

With regards to her training others, they usually have to tolerate her somewhat strict nature. She is a little....unforgiving, holds a grudge if you make a lot of mistakes, and has no tolerance for ignorance in the age of information that we all live in. In previous posts I’ve mentioned she’s only recently selected two students, after many years of testing kids who want to learn from her. Hundred tried out, only two have ever been approved. How she teaches is very fast paced, be prepared to get some scrapes and bruises, she will test your physical and emotional tolerances with intense tasks, carefully watching students like a hawk. Bad posture in your stance? She’ll be the first to tell you to sort it out. Not hearing your Pokemon partner? Right, now you spend the day without using words trying to communicate, let’s see how you like not being listened to.

This is a woman who has spent her life saying very little, and watching everything, she watches Pokemon and can see an issue from a mile off, and in battles, her observations are why she can react fast, and chose effective strategy to avoid damage and achieve results. Don’t let her body fool you, her strongest asset is analysing, watching, planning. Those skills have over the years transferred to people too. As a student, mistakes don’t go unnoticed with this professor.

Her methods are harsh but fair, and should you prove yourself, she will protect you with her life.

Because of her disinterest in kids and lots of noise, she does pass the training of students on to the other staff members whenever possible. Grey takes on the lions share of battle lessons, he is far calmer, more open and friendly, with patience for people, and an empathy that peach sometimes struggles to have. When you go through a lot of harsh training, and difficult events, it’s hard to change how you feel or think, with peach, well, she’s been through it. Most do not come out the other end in one piece, but she did, and it made her strong. You may think I mean strong like buff and big, and yeah sure she is, but I mean it mentally more than anything. Peach will not quit. She has learnt to destroy the boundaries that stop people getting hurt, gone is the fear that freezes you in your tracks, that feeling that you’ll pass out if you go one more step. She’s learnt to ignore it.

This means she’s a little forgetful at how it is to be normal, to be vulnerable and soft and squishy like students so usually are.

She has her issues, but for the most part, visitors get a laugh, a smile, a calm assertive confidence, and facts. She will indulge those who have genuine interest, or show a connection with nature, an understanding of the balance that needs to be struck for everyone to live well together.

Despite her many flaws, she’s fiercely protective, and will go above and beyond to defend the island, it’s staff, the Pokemon and the visitors. Injustice is her biggest gripe, along with littering, and she doesn’t stand by quietly if something happens that seems unfair.

You will not see her without Valka, her vulpix, close by. That Pokemon doesn’t like to be touched by strangers, at all, and will run the second someone comes at her with that intent. Peach will scold you for pushing yourself onto her, should you persistently try to get close to pet Val. They are in sync, if peach is sad, Val is sad, if Val is stressed, peach is stressed, and so on. They are inherently connected, it’s just been that long, the psychic bridge between them has been built, and reinforced over the years.

The only other Pokemon who follows her so endlessly is Booker, a teddiursa who’s pretty rough looking. He quietly trots behind, grouchy and stoic, they fight closely together a lot. He lost his mom a long time ago to poachers, and peach took him in, and changed her whole life for him. Not many people know, but Booker was the reason she left the rangers, changed career, and got so strong. Will tolerate people petting him but isn’t keen at all, grumbles a lot and tries to move away.

You may also need to know about the others, for the sake of writing, she here a few more bits that may be important to you, or others wanting to do this.

Grey is very tall, very burly, composed, tells bad dad jokes, is a bit of a goof if allowed to be. If he sees a pun, he’ll say it. Can’t help himself. Very nice guy to work with, good at keeping people calm and grounded. Pokemon are drawn to him like a moth to a flame, he gives off warm energy, and has inhuman amounts of patience. If you wrong his family however, he will snap back.

He grew up in the city, loves to swim and hike and cycle, can snowboard, is really sporty. A total brain box with held items, and boosting stats. He will explore many paths, to make sure visitors and students get the information they need, in a way that can be remembered and retained for later. Is a huge guy, but will get on the floor to play with a tiny Pokemon. Treats big “meaner” looking species like babies, very good with all pokemon.

His free time is spent either tinkering, swimming, or trimming his bonsai trees. This guy stares at screens a lot, so appreciates time away from them. Peach built him his own little greenhouse for his trees and tools, which he keeps clean and loves dearly.

His methods as a teacher are built around fun and games, he makes hard work easier to do by distracting trainers from the difficult bits, and focusing in on something more interesting or compelling.

His most commonly seen Pokemon would be a houndoom, Saxon, old battle veteran, retired now to herding and being a good boy. Very gentle, loves a pet.

Pari, now a fully fledged nurse, often oversees the labs front desk and pokecentre features, such as healing pokemon, and informing trainers who come to visit. Her skills with eggs and hatchlings is high, she’s great with younger Pokemon, and hands out good advice to trainers a lot. She’s not a fighter, never was, but can find any file, any study, any book, and any refrence you may need. A true bookworm, loves her romance novels, chat shows and upbeat celebrity gossip mags. Will cry at a lot of stuff, be it sad or happy.

She’s got a seriously upbeat personality, but if caught off guard or shocked, she gets a little flustered. Too much chaos will overwhelm her, but usually she’s on top of things. The years spent on the island have made her better at maintaining composure in emergencies. With lots of siblings, she’s very competent with others, and has a good ability to disarm cagey people with her jolly nature. Because of this, she can sometimes gain information from trainers that some of the more harsh professors may not have access to. Charming is a word for it.

Her partners are an eevee, and a happiny. They are quite sweet and well adjusted, the eevee gets a bit bouncy if you get it too excited.

Kaibustion au

Kai, Nya, and Lloyd after escaping Darkley’s decide to form a mercenary group

As long as there’s someone or something rich and important around somebody always gonna need some muscle

And if the muscle has super powers that makes them even more marketable.

Kai is a Darkley’s graduate after all so that gives him even more credibility

Due to the two marketing themselves as a duo Nya and Kai shadowed criminals as interns during the summer

Got keep the reputation of Darkley’s up as a charitable school for wayward and exceptional youth.

The duo interned under villains such as a mad scientist, a regular criminal defense lawyer, crooked cop, top thief, and money launderer.

I mean the work for said groups was mainly fetching snacks, booze, paperwork, and cigarettes.

But still a reference is a refrence and they still learned some valuable skills

Like how to do taxes and pay as little as possible, basic and criminal rights under the legal system, how to spot an undercover cop, how to hot wire a car, what to pick pocket, how to resell your stolen gains, and how to forge a fake identity.

So once they escape Darkley’s with their pre made disguises and fake identities, it’s on to a bolt hole already loaded up with their things.

They had to dye Lloyd’s hair though too recognizable and different to their appearance.

He’ll look more like their actual sibling if they dye it brown or black. Cover up the rushed poor dye job with his hoodie or a hat and he’ll be fine.

They did have a close call with the cops initially on their way to Ignacia

Kai and Nya wanted some answers from Dr.Chang and to gather some of their old things.

Cop: Where’s your parents kids?

Lloyd: In uranus.

Nya: Please ignore my little brother sir. He’s just discovered the Uranus joke and he’s been saying it all week. You know boys at that age. Now apologize to the officer Lance.

Lloyd: Sorry officer.

Cop: Still where are you kids going especially without your parents?

Kai: We’re actually waiting for the next train stop to Ignacia to visit our grandparents.

Cop: Ah Ignacia, my wife’s from there. What a beautiful little town, now you kids stay safe and have fun.

Kai and Lloyd later, as ninja, having to arrest someone they studied under and trying to not be recognized.

The Tower: Happily Ever After - 7

The Tower: Happily Ever After An Avengers Fanfic

Series Masterlist | Character Refrence PREVIOUS //

Pairing:  Avengers x OFC, Bruce Banner x Bucky Barnes x Clint Barton x Wanda Maximoff x Steve Rogers x Natasha Romanoff x Tony Stark x Thor x Sam Wilson x OFC (Elly Cooper)

Word Count: 1915

Warnings:  Pregnancy

Synopsis: Almost 40 years after Elise Cooper first crashed into Natasha Romanoff outside the library at Columbia University, she and the Avengers are adapting to a near-immortal life together with their large brood of children.  Yet things aren’t perfect.  Life is moving on without them and they’re starting to discover who isolating being immortal can be.When Angela comes and asks Thor to take the throne of Asgard once more, the group leaves Earth in the hopes that they will find their Happily Ever After there.

Chapter 7: Welcome Home

We were taken to our respective living quarters in the palace.  It was such a vast building we had no concerns about it housing our now very large family.  Usually, we stayed in the wing Thor had built for us all those years ago, but it looked like things had changed now that Thor was stepping up as king.  Angela had already vacated the royal chambers and so while the kids were all taken to their new homes in different parts of the palace (Marya, Sarah, and Zak were all just down the hall from us, while the others were in different wings of the building), we were taken there.

Back when Thor had lived here - before Angela had taken the throne, the Royal chambers had been vast and opulent.  It appeared that Angela had made some changes.  There were five adjoining rooms and each was large and decorated in golds, blacks, and reds.  The first was a sitting area with large plush couches and a big coffee table.  Around the room were bookshelves, some were empty and some were stacked with books and tabletop games.

The room had a wide arched entryway into what was essentially a dining room.  A huge dark wood table filled the room and around it were enough chairs for all of us and a couple of the kids, though if we wanted a full family meal we would have to have it in the banquet hall.  To one end of the living room, there was a door that led to a study that contained a large, ornately carved desk, and to the other the bedroom.  A bathroom with an almost pool-sized bath could be entered from both the dining room and bedroom.

It was the bedroom that had blown me away.  When Thor had lived here, he had just had a large bed.  It was beautiful and bigger than a king, but not anything you wouldn’t expect the king of Asgard to have.  This was like nothing I’d ever seen before.  It was on a platform at the end of the room, with a large rug with Celtic-style knotwork leading from the door to the platform.  I say the bed was on a platform when the bed was the platform. The whole raised area was covered with a mattress that was dressed in blankets and pillows.  There was a staircase that led up to it, and the full size of the thing could have fit twenty people easily.

“Holy shit…” I gasped as we entered the room.  “This is the life.”

“My sister has made some renovations I see,” Thor chuckled.  “Well, at least we do not have to worry about obtaining a bed to fit us all.”

“We could marry a few more people if we wanted,” Clint joked.

“Oh?  You feel like you aren’t getting your needs met, bird boy?”  Tony teased.

“Bird man, thank you very much,” Clint joked.  “Wait… scratch that.  Just Clint is fine.”

Thor looked around as his servants brought in our things and began unpacking them.  “I think we shall keep the twins in here when they are born.  We can set up their cradles by the window there -” he pointed to a spot under a beautiful stained glass window in a Celtic knot pattern.

“The size of this bed we could probably co-sleep,” Sam said from up on the bed platform.  He kicked off his shoes and began jumping on the mattress like it was a trampoline.

“What will happen when they’re older?”  Wanda asked.

“Well my brother and I were raised by nannies,” Thor said.  “But I do not wish for that to be the case with our children.  We can convert the study to a bedroom for them.  Or I can have them add another room by either extending in the rooms beside these or breaking these rooms up a little.”

“This is going to be a lot of getting used to,” Steve said.

“Well, thankfully we have forever to do that,” Clint joked.

“My lord,” one of the handmaidens said, approaching Thor.  “We need to begin preparing you all for the feast.”

Thor gave a short nod.  “Of course.  Lead the way.”

We were all taken to be bathed and dressed and to have our hair and makeup done.  With all the trips to Asgard we’d made over the years we had become experts at it.  By the time we were all done we looked like Asgardian royalty.  Due to my now heavily pregnant state, I was in a pale blue empire cut dress that was made with layers of a fabric that was similar to satin, and one closer to chiffon.  I had a gold cord acting as a belt just above my baby bump and on my shoulders was a gold pauldron forged to resemble wings that wrapped around me from behind.  They had wound gold threads into my hair and I wore a gold diadem with a pale blue gem that sat on my forehead.

The whole family was dressed up too, not just me and my spouses.  The kids all wore finary too and so did the grandkids.  Seeing Paul, Teddy, and the little ones looking around in awe as we waited to be seated.  Anna seemed very pleased with the dress she was wearing and kept doing little spins to see if she could catch how the skirt billowed out around her, which made Piper do the same thing with her much more simple dress.  

Despite Marya being used to the Asgardian fashion, she was picking at her skirts and pulling the cloak she wore around herself.  I approached her as I could hear them starting to call people out into the hall, knowing I didn’t have a lot of time.  “Do you want to change?” I whispered.

“Kinda,” she said.  “It’s okay.  I just… I don’t really like dresses.”

“You didn’t have to wear one,” I assured her.

“That’s all they offered me,” she huffed.

“Honey,” I said rubbing her arm.  “You’re a princess.  Their job is to make you happy.  Just tell them you’d rather pants.  At Pietro’s first feast he wore a dress.  They’re not going to care if you don’t.”

“Oh…” she said.

“Do you want to go change?”  I asked.

She shook her head.  “It’s fine.”

“If you change your mind halfway through, that’s fine.  Loki will take you to change,” I assured you.

“Thanks, mom,” she said quietly.

“Of course, honey,” I said, taking her hand and squeezing it.  “Remember, we love you for who you are, not who you think we expect you to be.”

She smiled a little and gave a small nod.  Her name was called and she went out into the hall.  Gradually we were all called and took our seats.  It was an unusual seating arrangement this time due to the nearing coronation.  Angela, Thor, Loki, and Riley all sat on the raised platform where I had sat during our first feast.  Me, Steve, Bucky, Clint, Natasha, Wanda, Tony, Sam, and Bruce all sat on a long table that ran just below it facing the room.  In front of us was a circular table with our children and grandchildren, to the right was a round table with a mixture of members of the royal council as well as, Heimdall, Sif, and the Warriors Three, and to the left was a table full of Valkyrie - all dressed in armor.  The rest of the citizens who had been granted entry to the feast were seated at circle tables that filled the rest of the hall.

Everyone stood as Angela was announced and when she reached her seat she gestured for everyone to sit.  “Welcome people of Asgard.  I know that these feasts to welcome the royal family when they visit from Midgard have started to become a little boring,” she said, making some of the people in the crowd laugh softly.  “But this time my brother and his clan have come to stay.  I shall be stepping down as your ruler, and Thor shall be returning to the throne.  He shall lead you until it is deemed that princess Riley is worthy of the title of Queen.  I can’t say I shall miss being Queen.  I hope I have done the right thing by all of you, the kingdom, and the nine realms, but ruling isn’t exactly glamorous work and I feel the need to roam and see the realms.  So I shall be leaving you in the capable hands of my brother.  We know Thor is both a good man and a good King and the transition between us should go without trouble.  Consider this the last feast with me as your leader.  Thor shall be crowned in two weeks’ time.”

There was applause but the cheers that accompanied them seemed mixed.  I could see that that might be because they weren’t sure to be happy about Thor’s arrival or sad about Angela’s departure.  When it died down again, Angela clapped her hands together.  “Let the feast begin!”

I knew this wouldn’t be the same as the first feast we had. The ones for our visits were always more low-key and just eating roasted meats and vegetables that were laden onto the table.  Large platters were brought out and placed onto tables and waiters came around with flagons of ale and wineskins filled with mead to fill goblets and tankards.  The children and I were brought layered fruit drinks that reminded me a little of elderberry cordial and lemonade.  A band at the far end of the hall started playing and the littlest kids at the table with my children had stood up on their chairs and were bouncing around to the rhythm as they ate their food.

“They look like they’re having fun,” Wanda said.

I smiled and took her hand under the table.  “They do,” I agreed.  “You think they’ll all be happy here?”

“Piper and Flynn won’t know anything else,” Wanda said and moved her hand to my stomach.  “And neither will these two.  This was the best move, Elly.  You can relax.”

I nodded a little and took a deep breath, letting it out slowly.

“You know all this stress you’re holding is bad for the babies, Mishka,” Natasha scolded.

“I know.  I know.  But it’s stressful.  This is all stressful.  I’m trying to look at the positive, but it doesn’t change that it’s a lot to deal with,” I huffed.

Wanda nudged me and pointed up at the table above us.  “Look at our girl, the future Queen.  She belongs here.  She wasn’t raised here but this is her home.”

I turned and looked up at Riley.  She was wearing a dress in a blue ombre.  That had a belt that crossed over her hips and an ornate silver breastplate.  A red cape was attached at the shoulders and her hair was done up in a mountain of braids that had a curl of silver laurel leaves in it.  She was smiling and talking animatedly with Thor and the two of them together gave off an aura of people who were gentle at heart but protective and willing to do what needed to be done.  Not only that, Riley looked happy and comfortable with herself.  It made my heart warm.  I hoped that the rest of us would settle in as well as she and Pietro had done.  This would be our home for a long, long time.

Meet Michelle and Anita

Meet my other Lwa ocs, Anita Cavendish and Michelle Poppins, lovers with bad luck a tragic end. Both in this drawing and the Aurora refrence sheet I tried to replicate the Lwa style and I hope I succeed.

More information about Anita :

Height : 1,87 m

Age : Died at 43 (would have been 55 today)

Birthday : 22nd of march

Sexuality : Bisexual

Overview:

Anita was eldest out of the 3 sisters of the Cavendish Family.Taught to be helpful to others at the cost of truth or her own well-being , Anita lived a sad life .Stuck in a loveless marriage and had a brilliant vision that the world was not ready for yet , which lead to her downfall.

Backstory :

Anita was eldest of the Cavenidsh family , and even acted as a mother figure towards her two sisters , especially Daryl , who saw her as a role model, because of how cold and distant their parents were , only focused on keeping appearances and helping other l.Despite being part of a powerful witch family , she could see that things were slowly falling apart.From their wealth , to their reputation and importance of witchcraft .Her parents taught her to be kind and selfless , to follow the Cavendish family values.

Once she enrolls at Luna Nova , she becomes roommates with Michelle Poppins and Anne Finnalean.Her years at Luna Nova opened up her eyes , letting Anita be truly herself , having fun at the cost of getting in trouble.When the trio tried to explore a dungeon to search for artefacts that would help them with their magic history class , they accidentally awaken a monster that tries to attack Anita , that’s when the Claiomh Solais appeared in front of Michelle , for her to use it to save Anita

Anita’s parents were disappointed in her that she wasn’t the one to receive it , but that didn’t let Anita down , instead , she helped Michelle find the seven words of Arcturus, falling in love with her along the way.

After graduating Luna Nova Anita to bring the golden age of magic back , to begin this plan she decided to join the ‘’Ministry of Magic’’ after graduating college .At that time , Anita and Michelle became a couple , to her parents’ disappointment. Michelle,even though was related to the olde witch Crimson , she did not have the wealth nor the reputation that the descendent of al olde witch should have ,they said that Anita being with Michelle was selfish and went against the Cavendish family morals , that even a marriage shouldn’t just benefit the couple , but the rest of the world .

This is why they pressured Anita to marry count and future minister of state Paul Hanbrige , saying how this marriage not only improve the family wealth , but give them a good reputation and keep them relevant , as the Hanbridge and Cavendish families joined forces a lot of times throughout history.

At first Anita refused , but then her family threatened that they wouldn’t allow her to go to college and join the Ministry of Magic , constantly telling her how disappointed they were in her because she strayed away from how she was taught to be .That made Anita go back to her quiet , selfless and obedient self, now only focused on finding a way to bring the golden age of magic back , at the cost of breaking Michelle’s heart,who planned of proposing to her.

Not long after Anita married Paul and joined the ministry of magic , she gave birth to Croix .Anita tried to be hopeful,she taught Croix magic , was the sweetest mother she could be ,and her and Paull were supportive , and even helpful ,in Croix’s goal of fusing magic with science.Anita would even play the piano for her daughter and her husband .

But this wasn’t the life that she wanted , nor did she love Paul , despite him trying to be nice and supportive of her goals.Years later, she came up with an idea to bring magic back to its old glory .The plan was to merge the ministry of magic with the british parliament in order for witches to have better resources and a good collaboration with regular people , learning from each other how to improve the world.But as good and as helpful as this plan sounded , neither the members of the magic council or the british parliament were fully on board with it since it monet some of the witches in the ministry of magic would lose their positions of power , and they taught that this merging would be an insult to their traditions and some members of the parliament were not that fond of witches either.

Around this time Anita became pregnant again, which led her to become even more tired and unhappy. So she tried to reconnect with Michelle and even have an affair with her , as only the times she was with Michele were the times she was truly happy.

Now her affair with Michelle has been going for at least four years, with her family being completely obvious to it. Meanwhile her daughter, Croix was eager to attend Luna Nova and Anita with the help of her husband would hold a ceremonial party to finally merge the Ministry of Magic with the British Parliament, relieved that after all these years, she almost fulfilled her goal.

But when the ceremony was held , the members of both the parliament and the ministry had different plans , sabotaging the Hanbridges behind their back, the witches decided to ruin the party and make it a mess in order to prove that the merge was not a good idea .This plan however backfired , as it resulted in a fire caused by a spell used wrong ,Michelle , who was invited to the party tried to save people there using the Claiomh Solais but got caught in the fire .Anita had to save her ,at the cost of her life.The moment Anita died was the moment the Claiomh Solais vanished in Michelle’s hands.

The aftermath of Anita’s death :

After the death of his wife , Paul wanted at first to honor her legacy and continue through her plan , but then he spotted some of the witches from the ministry of magic talking about how to cover up their mistake and that’s when he put the pisces together,but he did not have enough evidence to expose them so he let them be .He slowly started to resent witchcraft , claiming that it’s a dead art that ruins brilliant people and became the bitter jerk that is today , only collaborating with witches from time to time for the sake of appearances.

Because of that , he did not let Croix join Luna Nova or engage in any witchcraft related activity , throwing away anything that had to do with magic in the house.He planned for his daughter to become a future statesman and became very strict , cold and awful towards his daughter.This change determined Croix to seek help from her mother’s side of the family .Since Anita’s parents died two years ago due to old age and Bernadette was on a trip overseas , Daryl was the only person inside the Cavendish manor Croix could ask for help.But now that Anita was dead and most of her money went to her failed plan and fixing the place of the ceremony after the fire , the Cavendish were short on money again.

Therefore Daryl completely refused to help Croix , which resulted in Croix saying that Anita would have been disappointed in her , so Daryl told Croix that it was Anita’s kindness that killed her , that magic is doomed to disappear anyway so trying to study it or keep it alive doesn’t matter anymore.One of the maids at the manor who helped in raising the Cavendish sisters ,Marina Meridies , heard Croix’s call for help .

Meanwhile Croix has been studying about magic in secret , especially about the Claiomh Solais and how to summon it , since it could be what brings the golden age of magic back , to prove to her father that magic is not outdated.Then Marina Meridies contacted her ,saying she could help get Croix admitted at Luna Nova and gave Croix the idea of faking her death and running away so that her father doesn’t search for her.After she became a Luna Nova student, she took the name Meridies and said that Marina Meridies was her mother .When Paul found out that his daughter ‘’died’’ trying to fly a broom again , he hid anything related to Anita , Croix or books about witchcraft Croix left so that his son Andrew won’t be curious about witchcraft and suffer the same fate as his mother or his sister,because Paul thought even more that magic was a curse now.

Croix made herself a promise that she would only reveal to her father that she is alive only if she possesses the Claiomh Solais and has managed to save magic from becoming outdated.But then she befriended Chariot du Nord and the rest is history.

Family :

Anita is eldest of the 3 Cavendish sisters and unlike her two sisters(Bernadette and Daryl) , she takes more after her father (her sisters have blonde hair with tea green highlights while her father has lavender hair).She is a descendent of the olde witch Beatrix like the rest of the Cavendish family.

Jake Reviewcaps Stuff: X-Men Evolution: The X-Impulse

Two of the series most popular characters, and one of its’ more popular ships: Jean and Xavier try to lead kitty away from charming asshole Avalanche whose trying to use her for crimes, but have trouble due to having taken stupid pills before this episode. Meanwhile Kurt and Scotty follow Logan as he confronts Sabertooth for the first time and gets cars thrown at him. No really. Abusive Romance, Flying Cars, and probable Gilmore Girls refrences under the cut. 

So yeah i’m doing another one already. This pace MIGHT slow eventually, as I want to get through the show faster.. but this episode gave me a ton of material to work with so I wanted to strike while the iron was hot. So as I mentioned last time the show started with slowly shoveling characters in one at a time, giving each time for focus and to breathe a bit. So with Nightcrawler and Toad out of the way it’s time for Shadowcat and Avalanche.. who happen to be one of the biggest ships for this show.. and also one some don’t like. Me, i’ll form an opinon as I go as I don’t remmeber much of them together other than him trying to join the x-men in one episode, so we’ll see. For now it’s time for some X-Impulse. Wait isn’t impulse dc? Is there a marvel character named that too? 

Yup there is! Two in fact, but somehow one is x-men related. This is impulse a member of the Shiar imperial guard I entirely forgot about because there’s like 40 or 50 diffrent members and he’s not one of hte more promeinet ones. For those who’ve never heard of these guys there the elite superpowered muscle for the Shiar Empire, an intergalactic empire whose former empress Charles Xavier dated for a while after dethroning her brother and who serve either as allies to our heroes or people for them to beat up depending on if someone sane is in charge that day or not, and who often have members killed to show off some new baddy, hence why there’s been three impulses apparently.

 Their based on the less military, more heroic and more fleshed out if still hugely sized,  legion of superheros from dc, which Guard co-creator David Cockrum was one of the  most famous artists for and originally actually CREATED Nightcrawler as a legionnaire, but he was rejected for being too demonic and thankfully recycled into the rougish religious elf we know today. The Guard were as far as I can tell made as a wink and a nod toward that and a gentle jab at the competition and is far from the first or last time either side would make characters based on the other side. I also bring up the Shiar because despite being a sizeable part of the X-Men mythos in the comics.. they’ve BARELY been used outside them. Cartoon wise only the 90′s series used them, though to be fair....

Given Evolution had both hinted at exterterstials apparently, and was planning on doing the Phoenix Saga in season 5, so they MIGHT have used them eventually, but I somehow doubt it and WOlverine and the X-Men didn’t live long enoguh to even consider it. As for the movies they were considered too ungrounded for them and thus were basically exiled from appearing on film for 20 years. Now the Shi’ar aren’t perfect characters, the fact before he took the throne himself Gladiator would just obey whatever assshole took the reigns due to some misguided loyalty didn’t help, but they could be used intrestingly and the guard are at least intresting in a fight, so it is a shame they couldn’t be used till recently and hopefully with the fox merger the mcu will put them to use at some point. Also for those curious if they showed up in any other cartoons.. nope. According to wikipedia, their mentioned in Avengers; Earth’s Mighteist Heroes (Which will also be covered here some day) and Legion (probably too though also probably not episode by episode if I do), and show up in two of the video games, with Ultimate Alliance being the biggest role outside of the 90′s cartoon from the looks of it, having the well, alliance, head to shiar space to get the mkrann crystal and battle with the guard and deathbird. Anyway, i’ve spent enough time on this weird sidebar, let’s get on with the actual episode!  We open with a pretty good scene. We meet Kitty Pryde, your average teen whose having a weird flying nightmare.. emphasis on weird as it is a bit wonky, but the idea is fine enough.. as is the result where she finds herself having fallen to the basement and FELT it, her panicked parents coming down and Kitty only being able to sob about having fell, her mom putting it off to sleepwalking.. until her dad notices her pillow and blanket fused into the celing above, which only makes the poor girl more upset. It’s a good, tense scene and a reminder that wether your mutant powers are benign or not.. having them awaken can still be traumatic as hell, and uses this world NOT having them be a public concern well: Kitty has NO IDEA what’s happening to her, no one to turn to and is understandabily terrified. For all she knows her body is breaking down and she might not be tangible again, not an unresonable fear given her comics counterpart once ended up in that very situation due to taking some heavy damage in battle from an energy charged harpoon.. from a guy named harpoon because even Claremont had an off day with names sometimes. My point is it’s a very good scene. Naturally Charles notices from cerebro.. and with a weird computer thing that somehow fully researchs who she is because tha’ts not creepy, but It is somewhat understandable. Cue the credits.  We then get a REALLY pointless throwaway scene with Kurt, now having’ been at school for long enough to be late several times apparently, late again and running into Mystique, in her guise as principal before Scott thankfully rescues him. Why Mystique is confronting her son like this I dunno, but what I really don’t is why this scene is here at all. It could’ve easily been replaced with a throaway line about Charles only wanting to have one student miss midterms or not wanting to arouse too much suspcion with the facultiy by taking too many of the kids out of school. Instead we just get this scene to establish their home. And yes they could’ve just needed to fill out the episode.. but there’s plenty of ways, that i’ll mention later, this minute of screentime could’ve been used better and we really didn’t need a whole scene of them to set up that they’d be home for their subplot this episode.  Back in scene’s that actually matter, Kitty is trying to sneak off to school but her mom stops her, with her family apparently having agreed to keep her home but Kitty just wants some normalcy and her family won’t even talk about it, so her mom relucntantly agrees. I can’t blame Kitty: even if it’s a terrible idea to go to school while she has no idea what’s happening to her and can’t control it as far as she knows.. she’s also a scared kid whose body is changing in ways she can’t fully grasp, and unlike puberty, which mutation is a mild metaphor for, there’s no deep years of study on it or how it changes a body: she has no idea what’s going on and just wants to grasp onto SOMETHING normal while she’s clearly not. It’s some well done character stuff.  Meanwhile  Jean and Chuck are on their way to what i’m assuming is that same old place, sweet home Chicago since that’s where Kitty is from in the comics and they had to fly there anyway. Jean questions why her.. out of the three junior x-men so far she’s the least intresting. Charles explains he thinks she can reach Kitty which.. makes some sense. Jean is uber popular at school, easy to get along with and endlessly nice, so she’s a good choice. Another likely part of it, and why not scott, is scott’s powers: it’s a lot easier to sell her parents on powers doing good with someone who can lift objects versus someone whose constantly cursed to never open his eyes, and this way kurt has his buddy back home so he dosen’t feel lonely his first time without his new dad. Now granted I question why STORM didn’t come with them, as she seems like a good choice and it’d be a nice nod to her bond with kitty in the comics, but I suspect it was simply easier to just have two x-men to focus on. Maybe she was busy getting Evan for two episodes down the line...

So then we get.. Charles being really, REALLY dumb.. like out of character dumb. See in the comics when the X-Men came to recurit kitty, they all came in civlian clothes, though ironically Jean wasn’t with them for the initial meeting because even more ironically she, Scott and Kurt were split off into their own group to try and recruit Dazzler, and Charles was nice and polite about it and promoted the school as well. a school. Granted Kitty’s parents didn’t know about her phasing here and Emma Frost was also trying to recurit kitty for HER school for gifted youngsters.. but still, there’s NO reason for Charles not to use that sort of pitch to get into the door, especially since as we learn in the scene after this Kitty’s a straight A student, retaining her deep intelgence from the comics, so there’s an easy foot in the door before he drops the mutant part in. Instead he just casually mentions he tracked her that he’s diffrent and comes off really fucking creepy and naturally they say fuck no to that. LIke.. how do they know he’s not with the goverment or forming a teen militia or just a pedophile who happens to be a mutant.. they do not and their already scared. So chuck gets a well earned door to the face. And thus I get to introduce a new running gag: The Chuck, you Blockhead, Count,. Now granted the obvious name may be the xavier is a jerk count, which i’ll probably also do but that’s more for being an asshole, like he often is due to poor writing or currently pragmatisim in the comic. No no this is for when Chuck is just out an out an idiot. Plus I love a good Charlie Brown refence so Chuck,  You Blockhead Count: 2 It’s at 2 since we also have last episode where Toad showed up with his own uniform, and attacked kurt.. and Charles did nothing and questioned nothing about that. And now I mentioned that other count Xavier is Jerk Count: 1 The Scott thing is more in character but for having his test be.. have a grown woman chase a teenager with Lightning. Storm was involved too but I doubt she’ll be an asshole as much so she’s safe for now. So having throughly botched it Xavier decides to have them split up, gang: Xavier will go to social services to find out more about lance since he’s an orphan, while Jean will infiltrate the school. Now while watching this I questioned why no one in school at all questioned a random teenager they never met roaming the halls.. but odds are jean just used her telepathy to either make anyone who saw her think she belonged there or masked her self from them seeing her, the latter being a signiture move of both jean and her teen self brought to the present because complicated bollocks, so fair enough. I also thought charles was just fucking off but accoridng to the wiki he was at social services, so he avoids another count and was doing something useful, checking on lance before he tries to offer him a spot: both to make sure he’s a good fit after last week’s debacle and figure out the best course to legaly take the boy in if so, and if not knowing charles still find the kid a home anyway because even if he’s not x-man yet, he’s still a child in need asshole or not and Charles is a good man. Such a good man he had to be told 9 timelines ended in utter disaster and ruin for mutantkind for him to even humor breaking from his dream according to recent comics, and according to Moira’s notes STILL took a good 15 years in universe of attempted genoicdes , 1 actual genocide and his people being reduced to a nub to finally cave and even THEN he admits he still loves humanity and wants them to be better. While I did put up an xavier is a jerk count just now at his best Charles Xavier is a good if flawed man who, while prone to ocasionally making utterly terrible decisions, loves both humans and mutants and just wants peace in our time and only created the x-men to foster it.  Meanwhile back at the ranch her mansion, Logan.. senses sabertooth.. I mean even with Logan’s adept sense of smell, I question how he could smell him over the exaust of Sabertooth’s goofy metalic penis, aka his own motorcycle, but it IS part of his mutant powers. Either that or they just have a magic force bond like Rey and Kylo Ren in the sequel trilogy.. minus the sexual tension and forced face turn for the latter.. maybe just minus the forced face turn. So Logan prepares to go fight his rival, and suits up for the first time. and while it’s in a black void for.. some reason it looks REALLY badass and really gives gravatas to seeing wolverine in costume for the first time. And since he’s one of ONLY two looks to look at this episode, since Kitty and Lance don’t get their uniforms this episode, let’s talk about it. 

I fucking love it. Like Kurt’s it’s basically his comic’s costume but slightly modified.. but unlike Kurt it’s a diffrent costume than last time, going with his cool brown look that he wore for quite some time in the comics, though made a bit more orange. However it honestly STILL looks fantastic and I get wanting to go with a color that’s a bit more eyepopping in the more muted tones of Evolution. It just looks fantastic and i’ts nice to see a cartoon use an alternate costume for a character as their main look.   Logan passes a returning from school Scott and Kurt, who decide to follow him and after debating which car, Scott gestures them to his.. which is scott’s sports car from bot the previous series and the comics. Why a 17 year old has this, I can only assume because Chuck is a really good dad, really rich.. and likely knows having a bunch of teenagers around means if one of them DOSEN’T have hteir own car they’ll be borrowing his rolls royce all the time and this way he can have his nights after training free to smoke a blunt with logan while they watch the next generation and eat a pile of cheeseburgers the children dropped off while crusing around out of his lack of hair, you know why you give your teenager a car in the first place. 

Anyways while Kurt and Scott buddy up and go on an excellent adventure, with Kurt even bamfing inside and god I love this dynamic. So fucking adorable. But anyways while that’s going on, Kitty is at school being mocked by two alpha bitches for being sad despite her grades then is shoved in a locker. When then meet Lance, soon to be known as avalanche and the other mutant at school who decides to graffito tag the place.. in the laziest but somehow still coolest way possible by just taking his spray can and spraing one long streak along the lockers. Not as neat as doing an actual tag but it does more petty dumbfuckery faster so fair play to him.  Kitty begs him to let her out.. before her powers trigger again. She tries denying it when he comments on them being cool.. before he shows off his own, making the earth move under his feet, though not the sky tumbling down a tumbling down.. that’s Storm’s job. It shakes the lockers and Kitty rather than be impressed, runs like hell. But yeah, I get the feeling, even with him having evil plans for her right after.. that he does feel some attraction to her here. And as I made clear i’ts not shipping goggles.. the way he acts.. he’s elated to meet someone else with powers, to after likely being pinballed around foster care and treated like shit by his piers over it and then finding out he has a special power but is still seen as a weirdo even by his minons.. he’s elated. It’s what draws him to her: that for once he’s NOT alone, and there’s someone else to revel in the sheer power and joy he feels using his powers and even though she runs he vows he’s gonan rock her world.  Since we’re where a commerical break would be, I figure now’s a good time to talk about Lance. In the comics he had a diffrent name entirely, and avalanche was more of a one note villian who later became a retired bar owner. Here he takes bits, the long metal hair and love of his powers, from Rictor, a more heroic mutant in the comics who only started out doing crimes because he was forced to and quickly joined the original x-men’s class of mutants the x-terminators before joining the new mutants and later x-force. He’s also , as you probably know, one fo the x-men’s most prominent gay mutants, but while hinted at in comics made before this series was fully canonized years after, and like iceman who came out even later, there was no way of knowing that at the time, so it made since to use him as partial template here. It also makes sense not to use the rictor name as while it makes more sense given the earthquake motif, Avalanche is an actual villian.. and you know the obvious fact that Lance is white and Julio Richter.. is not.  Granted they COULD’VE made him latino, and used sunspot for spike to ballnce it out representation wise, but this was the early 2000′s and they cared about as much for repesentation as Jeph Loeb does. Hopefully Rictor gets an adpatation at some point outside of Logan, but I get why not here. 

On with the show. Kitty shows up late for track due to thing one and thing two, and has to run first and trips, while on the nearbye rooftops Lance and his two goons try to break into the administration building to get test answers. They don’t as Lance notices an alarm, and while one of his goons asks why he dosen’t just quake a hole in, Lance points out the obvious: If there’s obvious tampering they’ll just change the test answers.. and since he knows about kitty now, he has a better way and when questioned rather than explain her powers, he just shakes rattles and rolls. He also makes one of Kitty’s bullies trip but it only scares her further. I”m getting. serious heathers vibes here jesus.. I mean Lance isn’t nearly as bad as Jason Dean but still jesus. I need to listen to more of that musical good stuff. 

Kitty retreats from her admierer/stalker to teh autitorim, where Jean finds her.. given Jean again slipped in here without no o ne noticing and no one came after kitty , i’m thinking she use her telepathy to mask anyone from seeing Kitty come in and seeing Jean at all so she could talk in private. Granted Lance shows up right after, but odds are Jean didn’t notice him and thus didn’t think to shield him and probably isn’t up to Charles level where he can create a psychic blindspot in an entire crowd. Anyways Jean tries to comfort kitty who’s still angsting about her powers and again hard to blame her when the only other mutant she’s met is a budding psychopath whose idea of a romantic gesture is injuring one of her enmiies for her. Jean does try to calm her down, first showing she’s a mutant and admitting she was freaked out too when she got her powers.. and given most depcitions of jean getting her powers are far from plesant that tracks. She does however make the mistake of telling Kitty, already figuring this is some sort of trick and jean will throw a puppy across the room to also try and get in her pants or something, that she’s a telepath and Kitty screams at her to get out of her head. Jean truly is taking after her mentor in thef ucking up department. Lance then shows up as I mentioned earlier, and tells Jean to backoff and that’ she’s mine and you get it. Oh and as a side note Jean DOES admit to having read Kitty’s mind so she CAN read minds, and likely has gotten a surface level look of duncan’s thoughts which I feel go a little something like this mnus the actual context of when the song’s going on. 

Lance then finds kitty, whose changed into her regular outift and promises not to use his powers this time, admitting he too felt lost and scared, and wants to help her take control and help her.. and while it is partly for his own petty scheme.. I do genuinely think he means part of that, that he does genuinely wnat her and want someone like him by his side.. it’s just in his warped head doing crime and whatever he wants is the right thing to do, that control means using this power to knock down whoever’s in your way and TAKE what you deserve. 

Jean instead phones xavier and both agree that if lance fully gets his hooks in her they might never reach her and Xavier tells him to stay on her and that she can overcome lance as an obstacle.. and then bemoans that some obastacles are more annoying than others as the social services building has a large stone staircas,e a nice quip and they beat the ulitmate universe to that joke by a few years. 

Meanwhile our two best buds track Wolvie to a car park because fuck if I know why he decided to make his stand there. Probably because the writers had a cool action scene in mind as we’ll see, but it still comes off dumb though given how every other x-man has been acting this episode it tracks. Anyway Sabertooth strolls up on his demonic wang-shang-a-lang, 

Seriously I mocked it before but it bears repeating. While Wolvie has a normal looking, if still badass, bike Sabertooth’s.. looks like something Skeltor would ride after he man. It Looks like warlock is horribly stucki n the form of a motorcycle. It looks like the kind of bike on some random asshole the bikers from sons of anarchy would beat up forposing. It looks like he stole it from the biker mice from mars. It looks like the polution from it’s exaust alone is the reason big bird die. it looks like Creed just brought it off the joker and remonded it. It looks like something the battletoads bought and regretted. It looks like ghost rider’s first trike. it looks like Tooth lost his dick in a horrible acciden tand is compensating with theree metalic ones. It looks like something the BAND creed sold to victor creed here. It looks.. bad is what i’m saying.  As for his actual outfit.. it’s okay,b asically his movie outfit with osme of the skin missing. That look isn’t my faviorite of his but it works to sell him as a savage monster and fits good with the more tactical less comic booky looks of this shows costumes. 

Creed, the man not the band though  he does look like the lead singer of creed, charges at Logan who simply pops his wheel while tooth falls off the roof.. and then the most rediculous and awesome part of the episode starts.... right after Scott’s car gets hit with the bike because what else did he think was going to happen when the fighting started.  Sabertooth , who apparently has really good super strength in this universe, starts CHUCKING CARS UP THROUGH THE ROOF OF THE CAR PARK UP AT LOGAN. Points to the team while the setting for this fight is nonseical, it is WORTH IT for this, with great action as Logan dodges the cars bursting through the roof. it’s rediclous, over the top.. and UTTERLY spectacular and not just in a so bad it’s good way. Logan eventually slips through a car hole, a sentence i’d never thought i’d say mostly becasue that’s the moe syslack approved term for garages but it works well here too, and into the garage before sabertooth RAMS him with a car, ranting about it’s their “destiny” only one is left. Which seems like some weird “applying highlander logic to former goverment weapon mutants’ bollocks, but instead is foreshadowing for the end of the season. Nice touch. Scott and Kurt arrive, in uniform since even if he’s a bit more personably here, Scott still is no dummy, and they sucessfully save Logan, whose pissy about it because it was his buisness and all, but Kurt thinks he secretly loves them and Scott sarcastically agrees. Not a bad subplot and it makes up for a weird choice of battleground on logan’s cart iwth utter insanity. Fun stuff.  Back at not so fun stuff, Kitty finds lance outside the office and takes him up on his offer, and he admits they ARE outsiders, there is something wrong with them.. but instead of moping about it, they can do something about it and revel in it. It really ties into Lance as a character: He’s probably felt, due to being an oprhan and not having a stable home life likely buffeted around foster care and acting out as a result, that he really is an outsider and his powers not only proved it.. but finally gave him POWER over all the people that cast him out. The power to take what he wanted and return what he got. The power to move you. He finally had power and he was going to make them pay for making him feel like he had none and wants Kitty to join him. And for a moment it works, kitty joyfully breaking in with him and actually enjoying her powers for the first time. Meanwhile kitty’s parents showed up, Jean having called them and somehow got them to listen.. and this is what I meant by that one minute earlier. We COULD have built up Kitty’s parents guilt and fear by having Charles approach them again.. and with them panicked over her not returning from school, have him explain what happened and help her father see how wrong he’d been to hide from it or had her argue with her dad then storm out. Instead they just show up here for the first time in almost 20 minutes so we could get a filler scene of kurt being late. 

Anyways inside Lance steals the answers and Kitty is horrified to find out that “Gasp” the juvinele delinquent who hurt someone to impress her is doing BAD THINGS. Lance tries to change her grades but she refuses.. and then Jean and the Prydes show up, with Kitty’s dad admitting he was wrong, he shouldn’t of hid fro her power and shoudl’ve been a better parent.. better than her comics dad who got in bed with gangsters i’ll give him that. But Lance not wanting to loose his new sorta girlfriend knocks a bookcase on kitty and abusively tries to drag her with him.. while jean says if you go with him now, her powers will be a curse like she thought earlier... even though Kitty’s pretty terrified of lance right now and dosen’t actually want to go with him.  it comes off like this bit from final space played entirely seriously

So yeah apparently I need this too...: God Dammit Jean Count: 3 The other two are for the telepath thing earlier and the duncan thing last episode. And given the duncan thing is going to be going on till season 3 yeah i’ll need this. I’ll probably also need a WHAT DOES SHE SEE HIM HIM COUNT, but i’m playing that one by ear. But yeah kitty does the obvious and breaks it off and phases out and Lance takes it well.. by trying to destory the entire school.. my god this really is heathers! Did .. did lance kill some popular kids before this? I have questions. Jean struggles to hold things up and worries about kitty, who falls under some ruble but charles assures her to focus: She can do this.. and as we seen Chuck likely sensed kitty who phases out and reuintes with her parents before rescuing them all. Kitty realizes her powers are a gift after all and says the x-men have her best intrest and heart and Charles finally decides to have an actual discussion with the prydes which had he had one might’ve helped this episode go faster.  We then end on Lance, angry and hurt starring into the distance, when Mistque approaches in her principal disguise, saying there may be an opening for her and transforms ending with a great line “I have much to teach you, my avalanche”. Which ihs a better code name than Rictor when put like that credit where it’s do. And we’re out. Final Thoughts:  This one was a bit of a step down as you could tell: The main core of Lance and Kitty IS really strong, being a good way to breifly touch on toxic relationships. If this gets better in season 2 I have no idea but it’s a compelling dynamic here, with Kitty being terrified of her power while Lance loves his and both are what prop this episode up alongside the fun car park fight and great dynamic with Kurt and Scott. HOwever what drags the episode down is EVERYONE but Kitty and Lance, who act in character, and Scott and Kurt, who had no idea logan was going into combat and were just curious what their cool teacher was up to acts like a fucking moron: Logan, rather than pick a fighting ground where he has an advantage chooses one where sabertooth can easily use stealth and gives him an opening too as well as a garage full of weapons that nearly ends him, Xavier decides just randomly revealing he knows where they live wiill impress scared parents, Jean decides telling someone she’s in their head is a great idea, Kitty’s parents think not talking about the thing tht just happened will make it disappear, which is at least realistic if nothing else, and Sabertooth thought that was a valid choice for a motorcycle. The climax is good but feels unearned and overall this episode could've neen fantstic but is bogged down by bits of stupid, but is still enjoyable thanks to it’s emotional core. Next time, whenever that is, another popular charcter arrives as we go Rogue. Until then, follow for more reviews, like this if you enjoyed it, send asks iwth suggestions for more shows and episodes to cover and until then, stay safe and stay mutant and proud.

Save His Soul (Chapter One)//Draco Malfoy x OC reader Fan Fiction

A/N: Hi Loves! This chapter is pretty much setting a bit of the scene, though we finally get some Draco Malfoy action! I hope you enjoy this part, i’ve got a lot of cool things coming up!

PLAYLIST

Set: post war

Word count: 1,342

Warnings: swearing, drug refrences, light sex refrences. 

Tuesday Fawley shot up in bed and flung the covers off of her body. The knocking on the door persisted, and became louder. She grabbed her dressing gown off of her door and wrapped it around her body while running towards the door of her flat. She flung it open. She was met with Pansy Parkison’s slightly pissed off face, and a girl she’d never seen before.

“Finally!” The black haired girl huffed. The other girl elbowed her side. “Sorry. Can we come in?” Tuesday shrugged and moved out of the way of the door, allowing them to enter. 

“Nice place.” Pansy said flatly. The girl beside her coughed lightly. “Oh yeah, this is Daphne,” Tuesday raised her brow, “my girlfriend.” Daphne and Tuesday politely shook hands. “So, you may uh be wondering why i’m here.” Tuesday had a bit of an idea of what was coming, but patiently waited for it to come from her mouth. Pansy scanned the room and fixed her gaze on the folded over front page of yesterdays Wizard Weekly magazine that was sitting on the coffee table. “You’ve seen then?” Pansy motioned towards the paper. The front page read: ‘Exclusive: I slept with Draco Malfoy, and here’s what I learnt.’ 

“Yeah.” Tuesday replied bluntly, running a hand through her brown hair. “I don’t really know what that has to do with me though.” Pansy let out a slight scoff. Daphne shot her a glance. 

“It has everything to do with you.” Pansy retorted. She suddenly stood up and grabbed the magazine. “This,” she said unfolding the paper, “has everything,” she thrust it at Tuesday, it landing on her lap, “to do with you.” Tuesday sat silently, watching Draco’s face move on the front page. “And that’s why we’re here.” Pansy leant back on the sofa with her legs crossed watching Tuesday carefully. 

“Whatever you’re going to suggest,” Tuesday shot a glance at her, “the answer will be no.” She stood up then and, magazine in hand, dropped it emotionally into the recycling bin. “I have worked long and hard to forget about that boy, and I don’t need that progress to be fucked up by his actions.” She then almost pulled Pansy out of her chair, and ushered the two towards the door. “So, I think we’re done here.” 

Pansy looked at her again, sadly this time. “I get it.” She whispered as she opened the front door. “But please consider it. Getting back in touch with him. He needs you.” With that, the two women left, leaving Tuesday alone again in her flat. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Her day at work had been appalling. Even worse than usual. Tuesday’s heels clattered along the pavement as she headed towards the Leaky Cauldron. It was raining heavily, and her umbrella was taking the strain. She made it though and walked into the pub with a sigh. She shuffled in and placed her umbrella and coat onto the rack.

“Tuesday!” She heard a beaming voice call out, “What’re you after?” She smiled as she walked to the bar. The voice of course belonging to Hannah Abbott, the land lady. 

“Fire whisky please Hannah.” Hannah poured her the drink and slid it across the bar. 

“Long day?” She asked cleaning some glasses while eyeing Tuesday’s tired body language. 

“Something like that.” Hannah knew that was as much conversation she’d get out of her today, and smiling sympathetically, moved along to take someone else’s order. Tuesday grabbed today’s issue of Wizard Weekly from her bag and began to read the front page. It read ‘EXCLUSIVE: Leaked photos of Draco Malfoy with suspicious white powder! Sex and drug addict?’ She grabbed the paper from the table and moved to the garden outside with her drink. She slipped onto one of the gazebo-covered benches and lit a cigarette, smoking and reading the front page.

“You know,” a familiar voice said gently, “you really shouldn’t read the shit they put out there.” In a little bit of shock, Tuesday looked up through her big, brown eyes to be met with steely grey ones. Him. “I didn’t know places like this were your scene.” The owner of the voice slid in opposite her. Draco smirked at her silence and sipped his drink, not breaking eye contact once. Her voice was stuck in her throat and Tuesday simply stared at him with wide eyes. He looked amazing. He was taller than before, his platinum blonde hair flopping a little on his face and he was wearing a black turtle neck and suit. 

“Hi...” Tuesday eventually pushed out, a little cautiously. She closed the paper, and turned it around so the front cover was now face down on the table.

“How’re you love?” He asked quietly, smiling a little while studying her face. She crinkled her nose up and shrugged. He laughed a little. “Bad?” God she was cute. 

“Bad day, that’s all.” Really she wanted to scream. She wanted to hit him and yell at him for what he did to her. She also wanted to jump at him and kiss him until he had no choice but to stay there forever. She wanted to tell him it wasn’t a bad day, it had been a bad four and a half years without him. But she didn’t. 

“We all have those.” He answered so calmly it almost annoyed her. “So, has your day been improved or made worse by my sudden appearance.” Draco raised an eyebrow and although he was attempting to hold up a calm composure, he was secretly anything but. 

“We’ll have to see won’t we.” Tuesday looked in his eyes again. And then, despite doing everything she could, she began to cry. Gentle translucent tears rolled from her eyes and she quickly lifted her pale hands to wipe them away. ‘Typical’ she thought. 

“Hey hey hey.” Draco stood up and slid onto her side of the bench, placing his arms around her. “What’s all this?” Tuesday sniffled a little and tried to ignore the glowing feeling in her tummy. 

“I’m just...” she unhooked herself from his grip and placed her head between her hands, “honestly Draco i’m still angry at you.” He looked at her carefully and screwed up his face. 

“You should be.” He gently shuffled forward so their faces were closer together. “I was a coward. In fact, I still am. Addicted to a culture of me, me, me. I protected myself and not my morals. I gave into temptation. I still do.” She turned a little to face him. “Actually, I’m angry at me too.”  Tuesday nodded a little. Draco once more turned to look at her.

“But...” he said breathing out gently, “I’d really like to be friends.” She looked down a little awkwardly. “Only if thats what you want.” She mentally contemplated what he’d said, a million things running through her head. 

“Okay.” She nodded. “I would like to be friends.” Draco grinned and pulled her into a gentle hug. Just then, she heard a phone ringing. He pulled it from his pocked motioning that he had to take it. She politely nodded, attempting to hide her bemusement at the mighty Draco Malfoy owning a muggle phone. 

“No Astoria. In fact, I don’t wish to sleep with you again. I’m too busy.” He snapped this to the girl on the other side. “Don’t phone this number again, okay?” He slammed the phone on the table huffing a little. Tuesday sat quietly. but a little smugly waiting for him to talk again. 

“Listen,” Draco turned to her smiling, “To pay hommage to our new friendship, would you like to come to a ministry party on Friday?” He shifted a little to get closer. “I know it’s short notice but all of your other friends will be there too so,” Draco sighed nervously, “I’d like you to come.” Tuesday smiled at him, and before placing a quick kiss to his cheek replied: “I’d love to.”

[tea-and-theater]

um this is a school au

ykySo, this is co-written by the lovely @neko-kaiyo, and basically Oc-centric. This is a little different from my usual style, and also features my annoying OC Moon, and Neko’s OC, Nova. so, yeah, this is really sad dark and kinda badly written. 

TW: fights, a few swears, unfair detention/ISS, dogs, flirting, homophobic slurs, vandalizing, refrences to death

School was hell, all the newsies knew this. Teachers, kids, and staff were assholes; the newsies only had each other. So when Moon heard a non-asshole and saw her sitting alone at lunch, she immediately went over and sat next to her, everyone else following behind.

The non-asshole, also known by the name of Nova was sitting alone at her and her best friends’, Happy’s, table.

Keyword being was, then a pale girl with black hair and clothes followed by many other people came to her table.

Honestly, Nova was impassive, not quite sure how to react, not that she could even if she wanted to.

So she looked up from the tiny black and sapphire-blue dog in the blue backpack that sat on her lap and studied each of the new people's faces carefully.

Once deciding she had no reason to talk to these people she looked back down to Happy, with slow almost delayed movements.

The newsies break into various conversations amongst themselves.

“So what's your name sweetheart?” Race asks, on the fence of friendly and flirting.

“Race…” Moon says warningly.

Race puts his hands up in defense. “Hey I’m just being friendly”

“Too friendly.....,” Moon mumbles unamused, “’Sides won't Spotty get jealous?” Moon suggests teasingly.

Race flips Moon off; she gladly returns the gesture.

Nova shrunk into herself and looked down. Though she may have been too nervous as she started squeezing her bag, forgetting about her furry blue companion until he squeaked and yipped.

Nova released her vice grip instantly like she had been burned, hoping no one heard Happy.

“Is that a dog?” Race asks in slight disbelief.

Sarcastic comments answer his question, followed by various cooing noises.

Nova nods and pulls her blue puppy from the equally as the blue bag, and set him on the table. Happy barks and purrs to all the new people.

Everyone starts to grab at him but quickly stop at some of the more respectful people's death glares.

“P-plea-se…” Nova speaks barely above a whisper, “Don't tell anyone else..”

“Don't worry, we ain't gonna turn ya in,” Jack reassures.

Nova merely nods her head; eyes and facial feature void of any and all emotion.

Everyone continues to gush and adore Happy’s tiny, adorable appearance, until two severely dreaded voices butt into the conversation. The Delancey’s.

“Well, well, well...Look what we got here… the little orphans found themselves a new baby orphan....how cute..” Morris snarks rudely.

“So tell me...what did ya name her?” Oscar remarks.

“Fuck off, Delancey.” Race spats, clearly annoyed at the brother’s presence.

Nova swoops Happy off the tables and crushes him lightly to her chest, slightly panicking before going scarily still.

“Oooo I’d watch that mouth of yours, fag,” Morris sneers, “Wouldn't want to get in trouble.”

Race lunges at them but is held back by Moon and Albert.

Nova stays quiet throughout the entire ordeal until the annoyance is too overwhelming. Suddenly a book is flung at Morris's head, coming from none other than Nova.

“Whoa,” Jack breathes in awe, as the hardback hits its target, dead-center.

Oscar helps Morris back on his feet, muttering crossly, “What the fuck..?!” Then he growls lowly, “I wouldn't do that if I were you, ya little bitch.”

Nova sits there, looking down and hiding her face with her hair as she cuddles Happy.

“Doko ka ni itte.. (Go away)” She murmurs with an almost tone of anger.

“She’s even Chinese,” Morris scoffs disgustedly, “Why the hell are you in America?”

Filled with rage, Moon quickly takes down Oscar, and Jack takes down Morris.

Nova looks at the Delancy's indifferently. “It's Japanese, assholes.”

“KELLY! DARE! Stop beating Mr. and Mr.  Delancey immediately!” a loud harsh voice commands.

As the ever-so-feared Snyder walks in, Nova stands up quickly. Bumping into the table in the process, she speaks up the loudest she had so far, which was less than the average volume.  

“It was self-defense.” Nova states.

“Ruthlessly beating fellow students for no reason is not self-defense, little girl.” Snyder construes bitterly.

Nova stares at him emotionlessly, yet her eyes burned with a passion. “They came at us first, so that is a reason.” Nova harshly enounces.

Snyder continues to maintain his unjust claim; his facade of dominance never cracking. “I saw two students ruthlessly beating two other fellow students, I did not see this aforementioned attack, therefore, it never happened.” He insists unfairly, “Anyways these two have a record for doing things just like this.”

Nova stares at Snyder, her patience wearing thin. “Ever think to hear the other side of the story?” Nova retorts hotly.

“I've heard all the sides I need to…” Snyder concludes before looking back to Nova sharply, “Now if I were you I would watch your tongue before you end up like these two.” He gestures to Jack and Moon, “Now, Kelly. Dare. See me after lunch. Delancey's, go see the nurse.”

Morris smirks as he and his brother leave. “I warned ya..”

Nova growls darkly at the Delancey's as they go.

Moon leans into her hand. “First day and I got detention. I’m doing even better than last year,” She smirks sarcastically.

Nova, staring with unexpressed pissed-off-ness, reaches around and grabs Happy, she mutters something to him before placing him down. And he takes off to complete the tasks given; no one notices him nor Nova as she raises her head in the triumph of what she told Happy to do.

Ignoring the newsies’ chatter; Nova wordlessly sits down, pulls out a book, and begins to read as she waits for her loyal blue friend.

Nova had gotten a little way through her book but began to become a bit worried that Happy wasn't back until she saw his signature azure and charcoal fur trotting back to her and he head-butted her leg. She picked him up and tilted her head to him before tucking him safely into her blue bag.

Thankfully, before Snyder came marching into the cafeteria with the rage practically radiating off of him.

“Why is my office vandalized?” he inquires standing in front of the table

“Maybe it’s trying to get rid of you,” Race snarks.

“Higgins, you will be joining your friends later if you don't keep your mouth shut.” Snyder hisses threateningly.

Snyder clears his throat and stands tall. “Now, who vandalized my office?”

“What makes ya think it was us?” Albert asks defensively

Standing with a silent pride, Nova stands straight and looks right into Snyder's eyes. She tilts her head.

“Oh, was that wrong?” She asks innocently.

“Is that a confession?”

Nova blankly stares at him and stands still like a statue, refusing to respond.

“Cat got your tongue?” Snyder asks mockingly.

Nova tilts her head and says only one thing very flatly. “Tyrant..”

“What did you say?” Snyder questions, daring her to say it again.

Nova continues to stare at him like a statue, but leans in and speaks a little louder. “Tyrant...”

“Miss.....?” Snyder trails off, inquiring her last name.

But she stubbornly narrows her eyes and purses her lips; refusing him an answer.

“You will join these two,” Jack and Moon wave at her, “after lunch. This sort of behavior is not tolerated here.” and he walks away.

The sounds of the newsies applauding come from behind Nova.

Race looks at her in awe and praises; “That was amazing!”

Nova turns to the newsies and says simply. “I only called him out for what he is…”

Jack laughs lightly, almost disbelievingly. “Yeah… most people don't do that, you're one of a kind.”

Nova sits back down at the table, looking a the newsies with mild shock. “Really? I was about ready to knock him on his ass.”

“Well… everyone's sorta terrified of him,” Jack clarifies.

Nova purses her lips and mumbles quietly “hm, terrified of someone set off by a puppy... interesting..”

She pulls Happy out of the bag once again and scratches behind his ears

“Good boy, good boy..” Nova cooes to Happy who purrs loudly.

Jack looks at her skeptically. “Ummm.... yeah.... the thing is: he runs detention and ISS and he ain't exactly afraid to get physical,” He explains.

Nova’s eyes give a  far-off look; like she's reliving a bad memory. “I's ain't afraid of being hit anymore... I'm used to it…”

“Ummmm.....you might wanna see someone about that,” Race suggests.

Nova goes back to emotionless and waves her hand dismissively in the air. “It's not like anyone would believe me anyway..”

“I sorta meant therapy, but your choice,” Race drawls.

Nova shrugs then goes back to cuddling Happy and she mumbles very quietly in his fur “.... dead girls ain't got no need for therapy........”

Moon gags slightly from hearing that, causing Albert to shoot her a concerned look, but she waves him off.

The newsies continued their idle conversations and Nova resumed her impassive facade as she played with Happy, until the bell rang. When the ear-splitting sound resounded through the air, Nova scurried away from the table, slinging the zipped up backpack over her back. Then she shot off to Snyder’s office.

Moon wasn't sure what that girl meant when she referred to herself as a dead girl, but she was sure as hell going to find out. After ISS, of course.

Well, that happened. Thanks for reading our stuff! Feedback is appreciated.

BFI ANIM18 APPLICATION

The following was the original questions and answers that I had to answer on the application form.  Appart for them treatemnt the BFI required me to defend my ideas and explaine to them key aspects of the production.

Although on second viewing I find the I had answered most of the questions in quite an underwhelming way, I still stand strong about sevral points.

*side note All refrences to the welsh language was saddly dropped and more of a influence from the poet Idris Davies taken up in it’s place.

Name * Arwyn Neil Hughes

Are you a resident in the UK? * Yes

Email * arwynneilhughes@gmail.com

Are you entering as an individual or as the main applicant of a team? * Team

How did you hear about Animation 2018? * Through twitter and a personal email addressed to me.

Project proposal: *(250) This project is to be a representation of the divide in the disadvantages areas of the South welsh valleys, and how those divides have caused paranoia and anti social behaviour amounts the communities.  The film itself is about a town surrounded by walls in a state of divide, living with the emptiness of the loss of industry socially and physically scaring their community.  One young boy called Gwyn however realises the deep issues affecting his town when a large crack appears at the centre of the town.  This young person hopes to bring awareness to the townspeople, and end the violent paranoia that grips his dying town.

Is this project entirely new (i.e. yet to be started)? * Yes

How will you achieve your idea? * (250) I will achieve my idea through experimenting with multimedia techniques and visual design, mostly in the realm of overlaying traditional 2D animation over elaborate sets created from card and cut out materials.  Through this process I will blend these techniques together to create a type of surrealism and dreamlike world with an element of tactility through the materials.   Another way I will achieve the idea is through utilising a simple colour design and lighting to create a lived in environment and vibrant landscape.  The characters themselves will be represented at times either through cut out animation or full 2D animation to represent the diversity of the community featured in the town and to add an elements of pop/pulp stylings to the artistic direction of the short.  I would also like to incorporate the welsh language into my production either in a bilingual manner or for the production to be fully in he welsh language, aether through dialogue or narration.

Do you have principle contributors and if so who are they? * (250) The team I’ve put together for this project are a mix of fine artists and former animators that I have collaborated with in my studies.  Ronnie cook is a fine artists studying a MA in Fine art at the Cardiff School of Art and Design and will be the lead background and set designer.  With her help I hope to create the card sets and landscape of the film, this including all 3D elements. My second Collaborator is another fine artists called Jonathan Humphries who will help create some of the flat scenery much like the sky, the landscape and general still 2D backdrops that will be pared with Ronnie’s 3D models.  At current there is discussion to bring on an additional animator to help with the compositing and animation during the end of the project.  This person would be an animator by the name of Ynyr Emlyn who's expressed his interest in helping with these aspects of the production further on.  Lastly I would like to mention the community themselves as I hope to go out and interview members of my local town to get their opinions of how they personally feel about the divide in the community, and to help me further represent their thoughts and feeling through the film.

Where will you make the film? *(250)  The films production will be at Cardiff Metropolitan University, School of art and Design campus. This is because as a student at the school of art and design I will have access to a large space, where I will be able to build and shoot a lot of the sets for the short.

When will you make the film? *(250) Film Production will start around May of this year.  Until that date I will be working on key development and preproduction for the film, and ironing out other aspects like full design sheets and concepts.  Also during this period I will be scouting the community for their views and thought.

What size grant do you require? *(250) The grant size I’d be looking at would be around £4,000 to £4,500, I believe that is a sufficient amount to allow me to keep production going and to complete the short on schedule.  I also believe that this amount would help with equally supporting my team and allow them to have access to equipment, supplies and other necessities for this project.  More specific spending information can be found in the attached budget sheet.

How does your submission reflect diversity in Britain in 2018? *(250)  With this film I looking to reflect on the socio-economically disadvantaged communities of the welsh valleys towns and the communities so often forgotten by mainstream media, unless it is to mock or to represent them as under educated or backwards.  With the film I will also be introducing voices of the youth of these forgotten valleys towns and to represent opinions shared by young people from these communities and to also represent the older generations thoughts on their community.  Through this film I will build awareness to the divide that in these current times has pushed these communities to xenophobia and social and economical divide and has began to tear apart community of the welsh valleys as more young people leave to pursue work prospects and education away from their home towns, leaving the towns to slowly die and prompting further divide on the committees struggling to maintain their relevance.  As a welsh speaker and a member of these valleys communities and as someone who has had to see this slow death happening, I feel that as a local voice these issues and divides eating away at these communities is vastly under represented and reflects the ever changing diverse landscape of the UK in this current political landscape.

How is your submission distinctive? *(250)  The distinction in my submission is the use of storytelling through the welsh language, as I feel that the welsh language is under represented in short form animation and should be used more frequently and seen as another way to drive the story of a short film and be used to engage with audiences and represent the issues relating to the welsh language and the communities that still use it.  Another part of this project that makes it unique is the artistic style and visual aspect of the production.  With this I’m opting for a vibrant black and yellow colour motif and a mixed media approach top design.  In this I hope to use large painted backdrops, small and large card sets painted in the black and yellow scheme and to place the animation over the top and layering it into the sets.  Through this I hope to achieve a unique stylisation that would make the production stand out, and have a unique voice.

Can you confirm that you and, if relevant, your team members, have not had a key creative credit on more that three (3) professional short films and no broadcast tv programme or feature length film? * Yes

Who will manage production resources and budget? What experience do they have in this capacity? *(250) Thomas Edgar – Producer of Barneyloon Films, experience in both TV and film production and so is familiar with short film budgeting Also a Stop Motion Animator so is aware of the stop motion process and the budgeting surrounding the process.

Are you or your team members students? Yes

Do you have a mentor? Yes

Do You Know the Legend of the Louisiana Vampire Comte de Saint Germain? By Ginger October 4, 2017 9:00 AM

I love a good legend especially this time of the year! One legend that I didn’t know much about but is considered notorious in Louisiana is the legend of The Vampire Comte de Saint Germain, according to Thrillist.

The legend is that this vampire would terrorize the women in New Orleans.

Now, Comte de Saint Germain was an actual person who actually lived. He was born in the early 1600s. He studied alchemy, knew six different languages, and was very social. According to Thrillist, he had a lot of famous friends including King Louis XV, Catherine the Great, Casanova and Voltaire. Also, Voltaire called him “a man who never dies”. Now this could mean that Voltaire believed Comte de Saint Germain would live on forever in history, or he is a straight up vampire.

According to Parajunkee, Saint Germain seemed to never age and would joke that he is over a hundred years old. Vampire Flag #1! He would also go to several dinner parties but never eat and only drink wine. Vampire Flag #2! He supposedly died in a castle in Germany on February 27, 1784. However, the only thing that proves that is a piece of paper and nothing else. Vampire Flag #3! Even though he “died” he was still seen all over Europe for decades, and even was documented attending parties and in letters written by credible historical figures. Vampire Flag #4!

So you are probably wondering how he got to New Orleans if he died in Germany in 1784. Stay with me on this. We are getting there.

In his first appearance in New Orleans was around 1902 where he hosted a party for the high society members. He is said to have offended the elite group because he liked to party too much. Hmm… Interesting. Then police started searching him because a woman claimed he attacked her and tried to bite her neck with inhuman strength. Vampire Flag #5! He then vanished when police called him down to the station to give a formal station. He was never seen again… (insert spooky sound here) Police did search for him. Parajunkee noted that the police found “not one piece of food in the house. Not even utensils or plates, just a large collection of wine glasses and wine bottles filled with what police believed to be red wine, yet upon taste discovered it was a mixture of blood and wine.” Vampire Flag #6!

This is where things get weird. Richard Chanfray is a french “celebrity” who claimed that he was Saint Germain in the 70s. He apparently gave this statement on television then turned lead into gold… Chanfray committed suicide in 1983. Some say that he faked his suicide and still lives on today, according to Parajunkee.

Nonetheless, the legend is unique and strange. And honestly, who doesn’t love a good vampire story this close to Halloween.
