_____________________________________

Appearance and Personality

Appearance: Riyon has a semi-tall and slender male body figure, however underneath that slenderize figure is a muscular up-put underneath his clothes that he wears on a daily basis, eventually it isn't noticed every time. He has long pastel lilac-colored hair which he ultimately ties into a half-cut ponytail. He has crystal teal-colored eyes which can turn garnet red whenever he uses his half-myth abilities. Riyon has a calming aura demeanor though he tends to be poetic with his choices.

Appearance: Riyon was born as the oldest child and son in his family lineage, eventually his family runs one of the few relaxing inns within one of the high mountain-top skirts of Wintergreen Village, a popular location where tourists can relax during their stays in the solid cold lasting winter within the Island of Enchantment. During his childhood, he was eventually young to help his parents and workers despite his appearance as a child. Still, his nature had somewhat appreciated his family and workers during their busy days.

By the time his younger sister is born, he's often seen with his parents raising the infant but mostly watches her over. Apparently, as a child, he had tiny bits of a child role as the eldest but it slowly turned into a calm and slightly wise demeanor in the present.

Riyon's personality in the present eventually holds a personality of being the typical silent kid but when being interacted with one another, he then responds in a calmer tone, eventually sounding as if there isn't a slight emotion in there, eventually he seems to know how to read the mood often sometimes, especially when handling most of his half-myth companions' chaos tendencies.

Not much of his main personality breaks that much in his daily life just to remember, especially when chaos at whatever time or day is upfront. He's more fully the kind to see how things get going more than stopping it though, but there are days that he ended up being dragged along at whatever time but mostly it doesn't bother him much with his friends.

On his normal basis of interactions, it's whether he talks normally mostly however the description of advice talking, which mostly sounds poetic and calm and is mostly relaxing to hear, eventually he rarely raises his voice and whenever he talks often is loud and audible to be heard for others such as his co-workers to hear him. And eventually, he's sometimes supportive and often chilled out on a daily basis.

His main personality may not falter, however, his aura will change depending on his interaction without expressing it. However, as a ghost-myth, his aura eventually darkens depending on its mood and atmosphere within the room. He may now show it however many can feel for the fact that he's either pissed or in fact moody, but to not pressured it further or the last thing you'll witness and feel that it is the air running cold his presence in your last minute slumber.

Understanding and very poetic sometimes, but his friends might agree that he needs to express himself a bit more.

Isaiah and I were being flop tourists today and didn't realize the eastbound shuttles cut their hours after labor day so we basically were stuck in avalanche (west glacier) and the shuttle driver told us "there are no more eastbound shuttles" and we said "ok slay we'll hitchhike" but then she got on her radio and re-routed an entire shuttle which they turned around made everyone get off so we could get on (we said sowweee as we snuck past them) (the driver was so mad at us), brought us up to logan pass where we transferred to another shuttle driven by none other than a regular at the grocery store who we'll call grizzly wintergreen after the type of chew he always comes in to buy. so grizzly wintergreen drove us back down to st mary and he said "no worries, I'm getting overtime" and he MILKED that drive i have never driven gtts slower than today. we didn't break 25 once, good for him, get that coin...

september nights

request:  i was wondering if you could write another soft bill smut? i don’t really have a specific plot in mind, we’re just really lacking content on tumblr rn :( in some really precarious place where they don’t want to get caught

warnings: soft smut, like i mean very soft.

word count: 2118

before your lips met bill denbrough’s, love was always, to say the least, a conundrum. lets be real for second, boys wasted your time, and you let them. only the cute ones of course. you are a hopeless romantic, drunk off of molly ringwald and john travolta films. you wanted any relationship you had to be just like the movies.

through your heart breaks, your best friends stood by you, your losers. eddie, richie, bev, stan, ben, and bill. for each tear you shed a punch was thrown to the man who caused it, they were protective over you. bill the most though, he always got so defensive when you were in the mix. all throughout middle & high school, bill has had to deal with every guy who even dares to think about breaking your heart.

“its not fair bill” you wailed into your pillow. he stroked your back and hushed you, his eyes welling with tears. “im never fucking good enough for any guy and its so fucking sad!” your complaints being cut off mid sentence by a choked out cry. “y-y/n. all of y-your boyfriend are i-idiots. anyone w-who would d-d-do this to you isnt w-worth your t-time. anyone w-would be the luckiest in the w-world to have y-you in their life” you picked your head up and looked at him with swollen lips and blood shot eyes “there no one out there for me bill, no one.” 

he bit his lip, fighting back any tears dripping from his eyes “they j-just dont see how p-pretty you are. how g-gentle and caring and s-s-sweet, and h-how your face c-can light up any room. theyre f-fucking idiots, and you d-deserve m-more.” you clearly thought he was being nice, because you could take a MOTHER FUCKING GOD DAMN hint, so you replied “i wish there was someone out there like you, for me, that thinks of me the way you do.” 

he furrowed his brows, tossing his head back and running his fingers furiously through his hair. “d-dammit y/n!” he cursed “cant you s-see what ive b-been trying to say? w-w-what ive been t-trying to say f-for the last f-five years!?!” your expression was bewildered, your brain was going a mile a minute trying to figure out what he meant. his frustration got the best of him, he got up and stormed out the door,  feeling embarrassed and stupid for trying to make you understand how he felt.

he was half way out your front door, fuming for his keys lodged deep into his front pocket; when suddenly:

“bill!”

his head turned at the call of his name, “y-y/n please i d-”

smack.

your lips locked with his, he rain pouring heavily outside. bills lips stilled at the contact, but this lasted briefly, he deepened this kiss by pulling you in to his abdomen by your mid back. your bunched the front of his base ball t shirt with your fists, and he did the same but with your hair.

the rest is basically history.

now six months later, and you couldnt have been happier. bill knew how to treat you, nights out twice a week (you always wanted to pay but bill insisted,) holding your hand to and from classes, he let you borrow have his varsity baseball jacket, which smelt just like him and was a little too big for you. 

when he would drop you off and your classes, he would always grab your hand and transfer a tiny piece of paper into your palm. when you got into class to unfold it, it was always a cute little message about his love for you. 

bill had it bad for you, everyone knew that, and you loved every minute of it. he met every and any standard you had, and exceeded your expectations. 

it was september, still warm enough in derry to wear shorts, so you and your friends thought of a last hurrah for the ending of the summery weather.

“camp out, its nearly perfect” Richie exclaimed. eddie rolled his eyes “like youve ever been near anything perfect toizer, do you even know what perfect means?” richie shoved eddie “yeah eddie i actually have. have you seen amanda’s tits?”

 you tuned out richie and eddies bickering as you’re boyfriend cleared his throat. “you g-gonna go?” he said into your ear, “only if you promise to wear bug spray bill, you know how bad-” he cut you off with a kiss, his mouth forming a small smile at how cute you were. “get a room, honestly” stan poked, pda wasn’t his favorite... “at least i h-have something to k-kiss aye s-stannie”

you arrived at the edge of the forest, parking your car at the last parking ish space. you walked toward the sounds of ben and richie fighting, and came to see that richie really went all out. three tents, sticks for a fire, and more snacks than anyone needed. 

you all spent the remanence of the daylight dancing in the light sky, sharing stories, and eating waaaay too many chips. it was dark now, you all huddled in a circle near the fire; making small talk and trying not to admit you were all very tired.

“ok folks, im off to bed” richie yawned “me stan eddie n’ mike will take the green tent, bev and ben in the red.” richie paused and smirked over at you and bill, you were tangled in his limbs, golfed in his navy blue pull over. “and uh- heh- billy boy and y/n in the yellow tent eh?” you could practically feel bills eye roll, god richie was so immature.

“w-we dont have to s-sleep in the s-s-same tent, i c-can ask ben if he’d s-switch” you look up at bill and reassure him “bill no- its not a big deal, right?” he tucks your hair behind your ear and kisses the side of your temple “c-course not.”

you both went into the tent, bill began to unroll the blankets you both had packed tightly into your bags. You both set up your makeshift bed, bill leaned against a pile of pillows while you hugged his side, your face buried in his neck. his smell was absolutely intoxicating; his skin had remanence of his milk and honey body wash, but it was slightly overpowered by wintergreen, clove, and his bourbon cologne. 

you were like this for around an hour, the orange crank-powered lantern being the only source of light. you switch positions though, you now laid your head on his lap, reading a magazine you stole from the hair salon. he watched your eyes scan every letter, when you read something funny you’d huff to yourself, and when something was intresting you stuck your tongue out from between your teeth. he adored you.

“d-dont stay up t-too late” he stroked your hair off your shoulder “we have t-to have you w-well r-r-rested.” you sat up from beside him, as he adjusted the pillows and took off his pull over, then his pants. he got under the covers and waited for you.

“nice donut boxers” you laughed. “s-shut up” he blushed and regreted not changing them when he had the chance. you turned around took off your shirt, you were shy about how you looked, but it was just bill. it was just bill. you heard his breath hitch, his eagerness radiating off his body onto yours. the air became tense as you unzipped your pants and threw them to the corner. you turned around, bills pupils growing until you were completely facing him.

“yeah i know. mine are boring” you laugh nervously, brushing your hair behind your ear and getting under the covers next to him. he didnt respond, he couldnt take his eyes off of you.you began to sit up again “i can go put back on-” “n-no!” he interrupts, his blush taking up his entire face.

“i j-j-just cant b-believe i g-get to see something s-so special” he gulped “s-so b-b-b-beautiful.”

you grabbed him by his shoulders and kissed him, hard. youve been with boys before, i mean youve dated plenty of people. but no one ever called your body special. hot, yeah. nice, yeah. beautiful, sure. but no one ever thought that it was special. 

bill was a kind boy, the most you two have ever done is get each other off with your hands, always clothed. bill never asked to see more, he felt lucky enough just to make you feel good, and that was enough for him. so when you felt the heat of his hands hovering over your body but not touching it, you new you’d have to call the shots tonight.

“bill,” you laid down “just touch me everywhere, please.” he crawled in between your legs, kneeling so that he could lean over your face “m-my pleasure.”

he traced your collar, leaving small, delicate, kisses to make up for what his fingers left behind as they trailed. he kissed the valley between your breasts, licking slow striped down your skin. he picked up your upper back a little and cocked his head to the side, you nodded and he unclipped your bra. he sat their with his mouth open, taking in the view. you blushed and muttered “hey, keep that mouth to good use.” he dipped down and sucked on your nipples, his mouth felt so good against your skin grazed with goosebumps. he was gingerly with his tongue, it was sexy, it was romantic. he kissed down your stomach, his fingers sweeping down your sides. you could see his member pressing against his boxers, the pressure made him wince every once in a while. his fingers met your panties and he hooked them. again, he looked up for permission, you nodded once again. 

he brought your underwear down your legs and off, looking back to see what he had relieved. he licked his lips, getting ready to please you more than he already did. but you felt bad, bill always gave gave and gave. “its ok, im ready right now.” bill looked up at you in shock, he wasnt expecting you’d want to go all the way. “y/n, y-youre sure?” you lean up and kiss his lips, swiping your tongue against his bottom lip “please.”

he pulled down his boxers eagerly, his member sprung out to hit his stomach. he lined up with you, checking once more that it was ok. then he pushed in, bottoming out. he felt bigger than you thought, of course he was well endowed, but he filled you up so well. you mewled, the pain and pleasure making a delicious feeling that made your toes curl.

he waited, but began slowly moving after a bit. he grunted, feeling you wrapped around him was something he’d never be able to get out of his head he thought to himself. he grunted “f-fuck this feels g-good’ he grunted, his breath becoming heavy and full of lust. with every stroke, you felt yourself get more and more lost in the bliss he made you feel. “youre making me feel so good  bill” you moan, the sound of his name coming out of your mouth driving him absolutely crazy. he speeds up, loving the view of your face contorting in pleasure and your body moving with his. 

he couldnt help but feel admiration to you, your hair formed a halo around your head, and the sweat that coated your skin made you glisten in the orange light. “im t-the luckiest in the world” he husks, holding your cheek. 

you felt the knot in your core coming undone, “bill im close” you strain, trying not to be too loud so you dont wake your friends. he moved your leg up to his shoulder, hitting you from a different, deeper angle. his fingers went to your clit, making you bite your had to stop you from screaming. “you l-look so p-pretty y/n, t-taking me s-so well. making y-you feel so good.” “so good bill” you repeat, drunken off his cock and fingers. 

without warning, you came came, your legs spazzing as you moaned “fuck bill” he followed, his hips stuttering, as he cried out into your shoulder. he pulled out and laid next to you, both of you breathing heavily and coming off your highs. 

“y/n” he looked at you “t-that was really j-just wow- thank y-you.” you kissed him, chaste and sweet “that was great yeah?” “it w-was perfect babe. t-thank you f-for t-that. i love you y-y/n.”

“i love you too bill.”

he sat up, his fingers dancing on your inner thigh.

“y/n?”

“yeah?”

“c-can we p-please do t-that again?”

What scents would each of the S2 boys wear? 😊

Ohhh, I love this! I got my fellow fragrance fanatic @amelia-w to help as well, and this is what we concluded would fit each of the boys well. I recommend having a sniff at some (not all), next time you’re somewhere they sell fragrance to see if you agree!

Bobby – Ultra Male (Jean Paul Gaultier)

Main accords: Vanilla, fruity, sweet, cinnamon, warm spicy, aromatic

Bobby probably doesn’t bother with a cologne or aftershave on the regular (working in a bakery gets sweaty, so a good deo is all he usually goes for), but will bring out his bottle of Ultra for special occasions. It’s described as fruity, sweet, loud, sexy, and playful, and although it could be unisex it definitely leans masculine. Like a masculine cotton candy, it dries down to a mix of pear, cinnamon, and vanilla that smells like it should be edible.

Gary – Boss Bottled (Hugo Boss)

Main accords: Woody, fruity, vanilla, warm spicy, cinnamon, powdery

Like Bobby, he probably doesn’t bother with cologne every day, but when he does use it he’s definitely a Boss man! Versatile, it’s become a bit of a classic with it’s use of apple and vanilla to add some freshness to the otherwise cozy and comfortable woody drydown. It’s generic, masculine, strong, and unobtrusive. Think of it like a masculine apple pie scent!

Henrik – Dirty (Lush)

Main accords: Aromatic, green, fresh spicy, lavender, mossy, herbal

He’s scandinavian, and scandi men like to take care of themselves - for Henrik that’s not just limited to his hair. This one is perfect for right after having had a shower, or just to freshen up. It’s unusal, but compelling, with a smell of spearmint leaves and lavender flowers, with a hint of medicinal wintergreen and herbs de Provence, with a creamy sandalwood in the drydown. It’s also been descirbed as the perfume equivalent of mouthwash (one of those from the hippie health food store that has ayurvedic herbs in it).

Ibrahim – Polo Blue (Ralph Lauren)

Main accords: Ozonic, aquatic, aromatic, fresh spicy, green, musky

If he got a girlfriend who cared he’d probably be happy to try something new, but our dear golfer is most definitely stuck on Polo Blue. It was probably the first perfume he bought, and he’s never moved on. It’s sporty and fresh, crisp and masculine, but also nothing special. It’s got a juicy citrus/cucumber opening, and settles quite nicely into something that can be described as a sophisticated shower gel.

Jakub – Lynx/Axe Africa

Main accords: Vanilla, citrus, amber, woody, aromatic, fresh spicy, powdery

Jakub probably thinks his favourite lynx body spray also works as deodorant and bathes in the stuff - preferably after a sesh at the gym - in addition to using it on his clothes. Loud and proud, you’ll smell Jakub before you see him, and Jakub smells like a teenage boy. Synthetic, bold, fresh, spicy, and crisp, we all know it, and fear it: Just like Jakub. He also thinks the packaging is cool, and enjoyed the old TV ads - it makes him feel more like a manly man.

Lucas – The Uncompromising Sohan (Penhaligon’s)

Main accords: Woody, oud, rose, warm spicy, animalic, aromatic, leather

A man of great - and expensive - taste, Lucas has a carefully curated collection which also includes Tom Ford Noir and/or Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille. But this is his favourite. Rich and deep, the rose and oud combination is seductive, with prominent smooth saffron that when combined makes for a sophisticated, smooth, sweaty, and sexy scent. This one is worn by a confident gentleman, and oozes “I’ve got my shit together” without being too much, and still it has a softness to it: Just like Lucas.

Noah – L'homme (YSL)

Main accords: Warm spicy, citrus, aromatic, fresh spicy, woody, fresh, vanilla

Noah wouldn’t want anything offensive or too bold, preferring something that sits close to the skin, and which is warm and comforting (you’ll have to get close to him to truly smell it). L’homme is classy, alluring, elegant, timeless and so so cozy. The tonka bean gives it some sweetness, with ginger and bergamot, a little spice and just enough musk giving it an aura of intimacy and soft masculinity. It also transfers to clothes, and you’ll want to steal his shirts after he’s worn this one!

Rocco – Nothing

Main accords: Sweat, food van, weed, mother nature

Rocco would never let anything as unnatural as cologne touch his skin, instead choosing to just smell like, well, himself. He’ll try to say he smells like “adventure”, “spirituality” or “like this one specific place in Moldova where I met this shaman who told me to follow the path of my soul”, but in reality he just smells like someone who hasn’t showered in too long and who lives in a van, with the addition of certain herbs.

Joseph was the youngest son of Slade Wilson (Deathstroke the Terminator) and Adeline Kane Wilson, and had a happy early childhood. Joseph was a musical prodigy as well being a talented artist. When he was a child, he was held hostage by the terrorist called the Jackal, sent by the Qurac president in retaliation for Deathstroke killing an important colonel. Jackal attempted to obtain information from Slade Wilson, who was secretly leading a double life as a mercenary. After Deathstroke refused to cooperate with Jackal, citing a violation of his professional code of ethics, Wilson managed to rescue his son, but not before one of Jackal's men cut Joseph's throat. As a result, Joseph was rendered mute.

Following the incident, Joseph's mother Adeline divorced Slade (she had previously tried to kill him, but only succeeded in blinding him in one eye) and took Joseph and his older brother Grant with her. At some point, Joseph learned to communicate through sign language (identified in Action Comics #584 as American Sign Language). While still a child, Joseph discovered that he possessed the mutant metahuman power to take possession of any humanoid being by making eye contact with them, a result of biological experimentation done on his father years before. He first manifested his powers when he was saving a friend in danger, but Joseph was left traumatized by the event and his powers would lie dormant until his late teens. By then, Joseph worked with his mother in her espionage organization, Searchers Inc., and received training in combat and stealth. During a mission, Joseph's powers fully awakened again to save his mother from an assassin, and he embraced his abilities to further aid his mother in her work.

TitansEdit

Sometime later (in a storyline called "The Judas Contract"), Adeline and Joseph discovered that Deathstroke had accepted a contract on the Teen Titans. Adeline and Joseph approached Dick Grayson to help him rescue the Titans, with Joseph adopting the identity of Jericho. The rescue mission was a success, and Jericho subsequently joined the team, but the Titans were initially wary of him because of his relationship to Deathstroke and the betrayal of Terra.



The New Titans #83 (1992), the final appearance of Jericho with his original appearance. The character returned eleven years later with a new look.

Jericho proved to be a sensitive and pure-hearted individual and was a loyal Titan for many years. Shortly after he joined the Titans, another new member, Kole, joined and Jericho immediately developed a bond with her. Jericho also developed a close and affectionate relationship with Raven, having possessed her once and learned about her demonic heritage. Jericho was the first Titan to understand Raven, bonding over their pasts with their fathers and finding comfort with one another.[4]

CorruptionEdit

Unbeknownest to anyone, Jericho was possessed by the souls of Azarath, tainted by the essence of the demon Trigon, Raven's father. Unable to possess Raven herself, the souls entered Jericho, as his powers made it easier for the souls to enter him. They were weak at first, but gained strength over time and eventually merged with him after some time following Trigon's defeat.

Jericho laid dormant within his own mind while the souls of Azarath began searching for new bodies. The souls needed individual vessels to survive and sought to acquire superhuman ones. Slowly but surely, the souls began corrupting Jericho and seized control of his body after the villain known as Wildebeest waged a campaign of terror against the Titans, framing Starfire for murder and nearly killing Cyborg after brainwashing him into serving as a proxy for him in a series of robberies. The possessed Jericho discovered that the Wildebeest was actually multiple people; members of the former Titans villain group The H.I.V.E., rebranded following the organization's defeat at the hands of the Titans years earlier. Imprisoning the lead Wildebeest, Jericho became the group's new leader and used them to abduct current and former Titans to act as vessels. Jericho gained new powers: a powerful lion soul-self and a healing ability that repaired his throat and allowed him to speak again.

In the "Titans Hunt" storyline, Nightwing and Troia, accompanied by some new allies, found and confronted him. During the battle, the real Jericho resurfaced and begged his father to kill him. There was no help for him and, to spare his son any more suffering, Deathstroke killed him. A statue of Jericho was later erected in the Titans Tower memorial in San Francisco.

ReturnEdit

Several years later, it was revealed that Jericho's spirit had survived by jumping inside his father right before he was killed. He had lain dormant until hearing that his friend Donna Troy had been killed in battle. Taking control of his father's body, he sought out the latest group of Titans, hoping to convince them that children shouldn't be superheroes and wanting to spare them his fate. He also killed his father's closest friend, Wintergreen, and mounted the man's head on a wall.[5]

Further demonstrating his mental instability while in Deathstroke's body, he viciously attacked his former friends, and even shot Impulse in the knee.[6]

During the combat, he jumped from body to body until Raven absorbed him. During a battle with Brother Blood, she repelled him when she unintentionally absorbed her teammates Deathstroke and Rose Wilson into her soul-self. Jericho managed to use the bodies of Wonder Girl and Superboy against the team, but when he tried to enter Cyborg, Cyborg used his cybernetic eye to transfer Jericho's spirit to a computer file, now stored in Titans Tower. Beast Boy says that they check on Jericho every day.[7]

After the "One Year Later" jump following the events of Infinite Crisis, Raven took the disk with Jericho's essence and, using the same ritual the Church of Brother Blood previously employed to raise her from the dead, resurrected Jericho in a new body, missing the throat injuries from his childhood that left him mute. Jericho joined the latest incarnation of the team, taking the opportunity to bond with his half-sister Rose, who was the new Ravager.[8] After possessing the body of Superboy's dangerous clone Match, Jericho moved to S.T.A.R. Labs until a way was found to control Match.[9]

Later Jericho, still trapped in Match's body, seemingly escaped from S.T.A.R. Labs in visible distress and asking for his friends' help.[10] The Titans managed to help him escape Match's body, but it soon became apparent how much the experience had twisted Jericho's mind, leaving him bent on the Titans' destruction.[11]

Jericho briefly escaped the Titans to plague the presidential election of 2008 of the main DC Universe, even going so far as to use Green Lantern's body to fight the Justice League upon being discovered.[12] The will-based powers of Hal proved to be his undoing, as Hal was able to push Jericho out of his body. Jericho was brought to the JLA satellite for safe-keeping. Mento mind probed Jericho, discovering that he was suffering from a particular and severe form of dissociative identity disorder, caused by years of reckless body-hopping. Unable to purge his mind of the lingering echoes of the personality he had to submerge when taking possession of an individual, he had his mind overruled by the evilest and most strong-willed patterns, causing him to take on a criminal, ruthless personality opposed to his former gentle self. The JLA decided to send him back to S.T.A.R. Labs, hoping for a cure.[13]

Jericho managed to escape the JLA and returned to the Titans, now inhabiting Nightwing's body. The JLA arrived to reclaim him, and he started jumping into the bodies of whoever tried to capture him. This backfired when Jericho jumped into Superman's body. Although stronger than he once was, Jericho found himself unable to control Superman's alien body. Jericho briefly managed to gain control of himself over the evil impulses and seemingly vanished into nothingness.[14]

DeathtrapEdit

Jericho later returned, having entered Cyborg's body through his mechanical eye, using an "imprint" left over from the last time. He used Titans Tower's defenses to try to kill the Teen Titans, but their new member Static used his electrical powers to short out the Tower's systems, creating feedback that knocked Jericho out of Cyborg.[15] Jericho escaped once more and, spurred on by the multiple personalities inside him (particularly that of his father), sets into motion a "Deathtrap" scenario.[16] Jericho unsuccessfully attempted to murder both the Teen Titans and the Titans (his former teammates), who eventually apprehended him. While in police custody, he was confronted by the new Vigilante. Determined to end the villain's rampage permanently (but having promised Rose Wilson that he would not kill him), Vigilante gouged out both of his eyes, rendering him unable to use his possession abilities. The trauma of the incident caused Jericho to revert to his true personality, but he was left haunted by the various personalities in his mind.[17]

Blackest NightEdit

In a Teen Titans tie-in to the Blackest Night crossover, Jericho is seen in possession of Grant's body, now a member of the undead Black Lantern Corps, saving Rose from the attack of Adeline, Wintergreen, and Wade Defarge.[18] Jericho revealed to Rose that his eyes grew back after Vigilante's attack, and that he used his power to enter Grant's body when Grant attempted to kill him. Jericho then entered his mother's body, tricking the Black Lanterns into destroying each other. In the aftermath, Jericho reconciled with his father, reasoning that Deathstroke would be the only one who could kill him if he were ever to succumb to the murderous personalities inside his mind.[19]

Brightest DayEdit

Deathstroke hired Doctor Sivana and Doctor Impossible to create a diabolical invention with a healing factor called the "Methuselah Device" to save Jericho, who was dying from leprosy.[20] Once Jericho was placed in the machine, they restored Jericho's body. Deathstroke offers its abilities to all of the Titans, promising to restore their deceased loved ones as payment for their services. Some Titans accept, but other Titans refuse and the team fights. Deathstroke walks away with his son, but Jericho possesses him, disgusted at what his father did to achieve his restoration. He intends to destroy first the Methuselah Device, then himself and Deathstroke.[21] While the Titans fight over the machine, its power source, a metahuman named DJ Molecule, is released. DJ Molecule blasts Deathstroke, knocking Jericho out of his body and is then slashed by Cheshire. When Cinder sacrifices herself to destroy the machine, Jericho is carried out by Arsenal. Arsenal and Jericho then decide to form a new team of Titans to restore the legacy that Deathstroke damaged.[22]

The New 52Edit

In The New 52 (a 2011 reboot of the DC Comics universe), two versions of Jericho were presented. Unlike previous comics, Jericho is not mute and is fully capable of talking by using his voice.

The first version appeared as an antagonist in Rob Liefeld's Deathstroke vol. 2. He and his mother were believed to have died when North Koreans attacked their home. Slade Wilson (now calling himself Deathstroke) had made many enemies worldwide and had repeatedly placed his family in the crosshairs. Jericho at some point exposed himself to the Gen-factor, which gave him his powers. Now a man in his early 20s, Jericho has plans to destroy his father's life that he had built for himself with the help of his mother and brother. However, it was eventually revealed that Jericho had taken control of his own mother and brother and forced them to hate Deathstroke. Joseph was apparently killed along with his brother until a later scene of a worker with glowing green eyes hinted at Joseph possessing a man to save himself and escape.

The second version appears in Deathstroke vol. 3, which erases the previous volume from continuity, with Jericho once again being his heroic and peace-loving self. Due to his enormous powers, Jericho was captured by his own grandfather, Charles Wilson. Under the alias of Odysseus, he wanted to siphon Joe's metahuman power to become practically invincible and experimented on Jericho, awakening new psychic powers within him. Jericho was eventually saved by his father and sister Rose, but the ordeal left Jericho with problems controlling his new powers, and sought solitude while trying to run from Odysseus. Sometime later in Gotham, Jericho met with Rose, who tried to find someone to help Jericho learn to control his new powers, but the meeting went astray and Odysseus shows up to reclaim Jericho. Due to the arrival of Deathstroke, Jericho was able to escape his grandfather's clutches and once again seclude himself. Sometime later, it was revealed that Jericho went to Ra's al Ghul to seeks sanctuary, and had gained better control of his psychic powers. He and Ra's al Ghul reappeared before his father and sister again to save them from his father's enemies, who are also part of the Nova Council, an anti-metahuman organization that targets criminals and those who uses their powers for money. Weeks later, Jericho and his family made a preemptive strike against his father's enemies in which Rose fell under the mental control of Lawman and Jericho had to unleash a strong mental blast to sever the link, but injured Rose's mind in the process. When Ra's al Ghul offered to heal Rose with a special "elixir" in return for Deathstroke's fealty to the League of Assassins, Deathstroke accepted and Ra's al Ghul instructed Jericho to dive into his sister's subconsciousness to bring out of her comatose state. After they retreated, Jericho and Rose also revealed, much to their father's dislike, that they joined the League out of debt for Ra's al Ghul's assistance and to make sure Rose would have access to the "elixir", which Ra's al Ghul stated she would need to take daily if she wanted to live. In their next attack on Danger Island, Jericho used his powers to fight (non-violently) with his family, protecting with his family an energy shield and using his telepathy to halt the enemies' movements. When Deathstroke disobeyed Ra's al Ghul, who was attempting to get the Nova Council into the League by sparing their lives, al Ghul killed Deathstroke's ex-ally Victor Ruiz, causing the two men to begin fighting one another. Jericho intervenes and threatens Ra's al Ghul to stop or he'll kill everyone with a psychic blast. Having read Ra's al Ghul's mind, Jericho also reveals the "elixir" Rose took was just a stimulant, therefore Ra's al Ghul never saved Rose's life. They rescind their oath to the League of Assassins. Once Ra's al Ghul releases them and left, Jericho and Rose tenderly said goodbye to their father, who decided they should distance themselves from him for their safety, and departed from the island.[23]

This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed.

Jericho later reappears after the DC Rebirth relaunch, once again mute and with his origin restored, though slightly modernized. This version of Jericho is also bisexual.[24]

Unlike his blissful childhood in the original comics, Jericho's family life was strained by the time he was a young teenager, as his father and mother were constantly fighting over his father's long absences due to his supposed government missions. After Jericho was kidnapped by Jackal and his throat was slit, an outraged Adeline shot Deathstroke (blinding him in one eye) for his lies, his infidelity that resulted in his illegitimate daughter, Rose, and for Jericho's fate.[25]

As a young adult, Jericho is working as an executive vice-president for a tech firm that his mother owns in Los Angeles, and is engaged to his interpreter, Etienne. Although mute and still using ASL, Jericho uses a special technology called a "subvocal mic", which lets a person's phone Bluetooth sync with the mic so he can vocalize his thoughts through the phone in a computerized voice. After Rose came to visit him, Jericho secretly met up with Dr. David Isherwood, his father's ex-tech, a superhero, and Jericho's former lover. Jericho tells Isherwood of his marriage, and he disapproves of Jericho's choice because of his sexuality. He does not believe his love for Etienne is genuine, and tells Jericho that he will prevent the marriage. Angered by Isherwood's interference, Jericho uses his powers to possess his body, turning off his super "Ikon suit" that allows him to fly, making them fall off a building.[26] Following Dr. Isherwood's seeming demise, Jericho takes over his duties as a superhero and uses the Ikon suit to aid him in his deeds.[27] While out on a mission to help Superman apprehend his father during a government mission, Rose finds out that Etienne is secretly a member of H.I.V.E., though it is unknown if she plans to inform Jericho of Etienne's deception.[28]

While continuing his new superhero duties (which Etienne knows about), Jericho starts taking pills due to experiencing migraines because of his guilt over Isherwood's fall. Later, Jericho meets his father's personal physician, Arthur Villain, who is looking for him, but Jericho explains that his father is "tied up" right now.[29][30] Wanting to know why he's having migraines, Jericho has Dr. Villain examine him, who also explains the finer details of how his powers work and those of his family members. Dr. Villain states Jericho is perfectly healthy and his problem is an emotional issue, but Jericho denies that something traumatic happened and leaves.[31] That morning, Jericho hallucinates about Isherwood, showing that his migraines have become worse over time, causing him to crash through the shower's glass door. While he hides the reason for his migraines from Etienne, he hastily sets an early wedding date, which she agrees to.[32]

Sometime later, Jericho gets a call from Deathstroke, who is in the middle of a fight with Raptor and Red Lion, to get in contact with Isherwood (who invented the Ikon suits) for his help in deactivating Raptor's Ikon suit. However, Jericho lies about knowing Isherwood's whereabouts, but Deathstroke orders his son to find Isherwood and to call Adeline, which he does. Still wrestling with his guilt, Jericho goes to a hospital to visit Isherwood, revealed to be alive after Jericho made them fall off the building; he is greatly injured and seems to be in a comatose state. Jericho apologizes to Isherwood for his current condition and tells him that he still cares about him. In a flashback to six years ago, it is shown that Isherwood was the one who designed Jericho's bulletproof costume when he was starting out as a young hero and the one who gave him the code name "Jericho".[33] While Jericho's guilt starts causing him to self-harm, he remains oblivious that Etienne is sleeping with his father, who figures out that her mission is to spy on him through his son. He tells Etienne to break up with Jericho. Despite her proclamation of love for his son and their clandestine affair, Deathstroke warns Etienne that he will kill her if she betrays Jericho.[34] After Rose has a bloody vision of Jericho, Rose calls her brother to check on him and learns of his early wedding date with Etienne, much to her disapproval. Rose shares her theory about Etienne working for Adeline to get to Slade, but Jericho states that whatever his parents are up to is between them. While visiting Isherwood, Jericho sees Isherwood's life monitor acting up and orders the nurse to get ready to transport Isherwood to New Jersey. Jericho takes Isherwood to Dr. Villain, who states that Isherwood is dead, but assures a devastated Jericho that are other "possibilities" to help him.[35] While Dr. Villain tries to bring Isherwood back to life, Jericho sits in the waiting room and is told by Dr. Villain that he should see a therapist or someone he trusts to talk to. Meanwhile, Etienne get a lecture from her employer about how she compromised her mission by getting so close to Jericho and then gets a call from Rose, who is traveling to see her brother to prevent the vision she saw.[36] While Jericho returns home, Isherwood comes back to life (using a synthesized virus made from Jericho and Deathstroke's DNA) and calls Jericho on his phone. However, Jericho left his phone in his office and Etienne picks it up, where she finds out about Jericho's past relationship with Isherwood. After Jericho sees his apartment in shambles and Etienne crying, Jericho tries to explain that he was with Isherwood for a few months. Etienne cuts him off and spitefully tells him that she has been seeing Deathstroke behind his back.[37]

It is shown that Etienne works for Amanda Waller and the national government, though she refuses to leave Jericho as she still plans to marry him. During another phone call, Deathstroke confronts Amanda and threatens to kill Etienne if Amanda doesn't stop using his son. She retaliates by threatening to send in her Suicide Squad. On the morning of the wedding, Jericho finds Etienne dead in their apartment and believes his father killed her. Enraged, Jericho goes to the church in his Ikon suit and tries to kill Deathstroke, shocking his family. Despite his father defending his innocence and explaining that Etienne was a spy, Jericho figures out that all of Etienne's activities were because the government wanted to keep an eye on Deathstroke. Although getting brutally beaten, Deathstroke refuses to fight back against his son, who only stops once he hurts Rose in the midst of his rage.[38] Following these events, Jericho is undergoing rehabilitation to deal with his trauma.[39][40] Later, Jericho is released from rehab and is visited by Wally West, who just had some of his stored super-speed stolen by Deathstroke (wanting to turn back time to revive his son Grant) and Wally asks Jericho to tell him about his father in order to stop him. Jericho agrees, telling him about his difficult childhood, and dons his Ikon suit to help stop Deathstroke. They plan to meet both the Teen Titans and Titans teams at Hatton Corners, the place where Grant died. Before setting out, Jericho takes the time to tell Wally that he doesn't blame the Titans for Grant's death, knowing it's not their fault, and how he struggles every day not to become like his father.[41] After Jericho introduces himself to the Titans, letting them know Deathstroke is his father, he and the two teams work together to open a time vortex to chase his father. Once they stop Deathstroke's super-speed temporarily, Jericho pleads with his father to stop disrupting the time continuum. This was ignored as Deathstroke enters the Speed Force again. Using Omen's and Raven's powers in conjunction with his own, they let most of the team enter Wally's mind so that they can bring him out of the Speed Force once he stops Deathstroke. Wally brought Deathstroke out, Jericho then listens to his father proclaim that he's done being an assassin after his experience in the Speed Force.[42]

Afterward, Jericho returns home and goes to a support group to deal with his pill addiction and the mistakes he made. After the meeting, Deathstroke comes to pick up Jericho and hop on a plane, telling him he has changed after failing to change the past. When Isherwood calls Deathstroke he speaks to Jericho, he tells Jericho he isn't mad at him, hearing his words during his coma, and gives his condolences over Etienne's death. Later, Jericho is taken to a base alongside Rose, his mother, Wintergreen, and Tanya Spears.[43] As the person in charge of the government "Project Defiance", Adeline initially wanted Jericho to lead her new task force, but Deathstroke talks his way into leading the team and handling the recruitment, including getting Kid Flash to join. Meanwhile, Jericho investigates who killed Etienne and confides in Rose that the only reason he agreed to join the team is to learn the truth of Etienne's death and to keep an eye on his father. Later, Jericho and the Defiance team go on their first mission.[44] During another mission to rescue hostages from a dictator in Chetland, Jericho and the team are forced to fight Doctor Light's Radiant Men drones without aid from Deathstroke, who is separated from them to have a private talk with Doctor Light. Despite having a hard time, Jericho takes charge of the team and directs them to successfully fight off the drones, but Deathstroke remotely turns off Jericho's subvocal transmitter and the team's comm channel to make their "training" harder. The Defiance team almost got overwhelmed, but a resurrected Terra arrives to help and save the hostages as Deathstroke regroups with them and orders everyone to head home.[45] Later, Jericho speaks to his mother about his frustrations towards her—how bitter she is because of her grudge against Deathstroke and her unjust hatred towards Rose—and questions her about Etienne's death. Although Adeline states she had no hand in Etienne's death, she brushes off Jericho's other statements, causing Jericho to plead with her to not let Deathstroke corrupt her anymore and become the mother he used to know.[46] During a group session with the team, Kid Flash's recorder reveals that Jericho is beginning to move on from Etienne and met a deaf man named Terrence.[47]

After Deathstroke is abducted by the Secret Society of Super Villains, Jericho finds a note left by The Riddler and shows it to the team.[48] After four days, Jericho and Rose try to rally the team to find him, but Adeline tells them that they have a new mission leading them to the place the Society took their father. After finding the damaged warehouse and hearing some of Terra's investigation, Jericho figures out that a now monstrous-looking Isherwood kidnapped Deathstroke and heads off to find them, against his mother's orders.[49] Upon arriving at the church in Canada, Jericho finds his father alone. Deathstroke lets Jericho know that he knows about his former relationship with Isherwood. While discussing whether Jericho believes Deathstroke is capable of changing, Jericho helps deactivate the neural transmitter in his father's spine, but the transmitter device was a dud and destroys Jericho's Ikon suit instead.[50] Having broken his ribs after falling down on the church's wooden benches, Jericho and Deathstroke return to the Defiance base to recuperate. However, the group begins to fall apart due to the other members learning more of Deathstroke's lies. After getting into a fight with Tanya, Jericho wants to leave the team as he wasn't making any progress with Etienne's death. Later, Jericho comes to back up Deathstroke and Terra on a mission, but the team fractures even more when Kid Flash blames Deathstroke for causing Tanya to seemingly commit suicide. Unknown to the grieving team, Tanya's incorporeal state is actually traveling through inter-dimensions to save Power Girl.[51] Jericho then returns to his normal life and continues his relationship with Terrence as he reflects over his recent tragedies.[52]

One night, Rose visits Jericho and confesses that she killed Etienne while being possessed by an entity called "Willow", much to his confusion. Their conversation is interrupted when they hear an explosion near Chinatown and find Deathstroke battling Isherwood, Kong Kenan, and a furious Terra. When Jericho tries to intervene in the fight, Isherwood takes the opportunity to knock out Deathstroke and send him to Arkham Asylum.[53] Later, Jericho gets wind of Deathstroke's breakout and his mother's machinations to pit Batman against him, and he scolds Adeline for her actions before she shuts him out.[54] Later, he goes to Wayne Mansion to fix Deathstroke's attempt to sabotage Batman's "benefactor" and free Wintergreen from FBI custody.[55] While running tests on his new upgrade on his Ikon suit with Hosun, Jericho and Hosun tries to figure how to deal with Rose's "Willow" problem,[56] which includes Jericho pretending to be Deathstroke in front of Rose (though she does know her brother is in the suit).[57] However, Jericho is ambushed by Two-Face when he and Rose visit Arkham Asylum and he is in a cell after Two-Face takes his suit.[58] However, Jericho manages to escape the asylum and free his father so they can go save Rose,[59] but his father is too focus on going after Hugo Strange and zaps Jericho unconscious, but later learns Rose is fine.[60] One day, Jericho gets a call from Damian Wayne, who is going after his father, and tries to dissuade him to avail.[61] After speaking to Terrence, Jericho decides to check on his father, who is escaping from his jail cell in Robin's secret prison, to make sure he doesn't hurt the young Titans.[62] After Emiko Queen apparently killed Deathstroke, an angry, grieving Jericho attempts to round up all the villains that attended his father's funeral. In his grief, Jericho confronts the Teen Titans over what they done and uses Kid Flash's body to go the funeral. Due to his strong emotions, Sinestro's ring reacts to Jericho and unleashes a strong energy that knocks out most of the attendees, except for the Legion of Doom members. Intrigued by Jericho's potential, the Legion of Doom offers Jericho a place with them before teleporting away.[63] One night, Jericho prepares for a date with Terrence, but Wintergreen contacts him to help Rose, who is trying to complete assassination contract Deathstroke left unattended due to his "death". Jericho gets into an argument with Terrence, who chastises him for always getting involved with his family members' drama and shows Jericho that he was planning to propose to him. Stunned, Jericho is reluctant to get engaged again and rushes off after Terrence made it clear he won't keep compromising for Jericho's fixation on his family. Jericho saves his sister, but the two soon got into a fight about the contract and Jericho reveals that Emiko is the one that "killed" their father. While trying to keep Rose from taking revenge on Emiko, Jericho becomes gravely injured and calls his mother for help, a hologram Lex Luthor appears to him and offer to help Jericho if he joins the Legion of Doom.[64]

While Jericho is bewildered by Luthor's presence and initially rejects his offer, Jericho ends up accepting a special piece of nanotech as a "gift", which not only healed his wounds, but amplify his abilities and granting him a new suit. However, Jericho's skin becomes blue due to the effect of the technology being embed into his body, though he is in awe of his new powers. Using his enhanced psionic ability, Jericho uses mind-control placing Emiko in hiding at some unknown location to keep her safe from Rose and then goes after his sister, breaking up her chase with Shado. When Rose refuses to listen to him, Jericho tries to hop into her body, but receives mental feedback that disorienting him, causing him to lose his mental control over Emiko and allowing Rose to evade him. Later, Jericho tries to stops Terrence from leaving him and ends using his telepathic power on him get him to stay.[65] Over the course of the next few days, Jericho begins to stop crime more activity using his new powers, but starts developing a Messiah Complex as a result. While Terrence warns Jericho is getting addicted to the nanotech, Jericho claims he will give it back once he helps Rose.[66] Sometime later, Jericho meets up with Luthor and tries to return the nanotech, but takes it back once he learns a Deathstroke doppelganger is hunting for the nanotech.[67]

While looking for Jericho, the doppelganger attacks Terrence, though Rose manages to save him, but Hosun is killed. When the Deathstroke doppelganger targets Adeline, Jericho saves his mother and tricks the doppelganger into shutting down his armor suit, leaving his father to deal with the counterpart.[68] While flying around, Jericho is confronted by Isherwood, who sacrifices his life to forcefully remove the nanotech out of Jericho. Afterwards, a normal Jericho goes to Rose and comfort each other over their recent tragedies. Later during Christmas Eve, Jericho spends the holiday with his family, though his father ends up sneaking out.

Thoughts about energy and spaces

In this post I want to share with you what a sense of place feels like to me through snapshots of memories. These are from times when I felt grounded, connected and when the world felt right.

All photos in this post have been taken by me.

image: Snowy trees on a mountainside, Colorado

2015 Hugging trees: An activity that I used to lead as a camp counsellor was a mix of trust and connection.. The participant is led to a tree, blindfolded, and after having touched the tree and been taken away, they remove the blindfold and try to find the tree. When I removed my blindfold in this activity I looked around for a couple seconds and then right away I knew which tree I had been to. I could feel it in the way that I can feel the direction of North and the direction of home when you’re on a long drive.

image: Icy creek featuring Juniper, Belwood

2021 Ice Patterns: At my parents house, the patterns in the ice covering the creek made me stop, sit and be amazed until I was too cold to stay any longer. 

image: The jar of wintergreen I collected for tea, Lake Temagami

2020 Wintergreen: Learning what Wintergreen was in October and that it was all over the island that my cottage is on. I laid on the ground for hours collecting leaves to make Wintergreen tea.

image: me and my Lakehead trip group, Thunder Bay

2018 Sleepy G: Standing at the top of the “Head” of the Sleeping Giant in Thunder Bay after hiking to the top was mesmerizing.

image: A camp kitchen, close enough to a campfire, Lake Superior

ALWAYS Campfires: Glow and warmth of the fire, beauty and breadth of the stars in the sky above, community, music and laughs surround.

image: Me in a canoe when it was raining, but not the same as the 2019 moment, North Tea Lake

2019 Rainy Canoe: Pouring rain, no wind, I sat in my canoe without paddling watching and hearing the rain colliding with the lake and seeing where the current would take me. I was exhilarated and soaked to the bone.

All of these places are more than the sum of their spaces.

To move deeper into the meaning of these memories I have some thoughts about energy. These memories are connected with a ‘surge’ of energy, a natural high that people get for example at a concert, eating a certain food, or being in nature. My roommates and I recently shared times that we felt that burst of energy, a pure connection, and how it makes us feel whole. And then we analyzed it. The law of conservation of energy means that the energy in our earth system remains constant, it cannot be created or destroyed. So then is this feeling a transfer of energy from the earth, the air, between people? Some ideas were of a higher power or energy left from people who have passed away. Personally, I believe that this energy comes from the earth and is part of the wonder and beauty of nature. It’s the feeling when you stick your feet in the mud or feel the sun behind closed eyelids, it creates a bubble between you and the rest of the world until all you're able to see and feel is that space that you’re in.

I would love to hear your thoughts on energy, it’s source, it’s purpose, and/or a specific moment that you felt nature’s energy.

beetle rocket root beer v. 0.1

due to popular request, here is the recipe i used for the first batch of rhinoceros root beer!

buckle up, yall, this one is....wild. it's wild. it's based on old-fashioned, medicinal root beers, so it may not taste how you expect! it is good though. it tastes a little bit like mulled cider and root beer had a baby, heavy on the spice, heavy on the molasses, and with a lot of anise on the back end.

this recipe makes 90 oz of root beer.

ingredients and tools:

1.5 oz chopped sassafras root (if you can't forage your own, you can order root bark online!)

grate about 1/4 of a whole nutmeg

snap 2 cinnamon sticks in half

17 wintergreen leaves, chopped

10 whole allspice, crushed

6 cloves, crushed

4 star anise, crushed

zest of one orange

2 tb vanilla

1 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup + 4 tb molasses

16 oz of ginger bug starter liquid

74 oz of filtered water

a cheesecloth

a wire strainer

pop top bottles (like these. this is really important lol any other bottle WILL either explode or send the lid into space)

put your water in a big pot and add in all your spices. bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.

add in your molasses and brown sugar, stir til dissolved, simmer another 15 minutes. remove from heat, cover, and let steep overnight.

the next day, strain your mixture through cheesecloth to get out all the chunks and stuff. add in the ginger bug liquid, mix until combined.

transfer to pop-top bottles, let ferment at room temperature for a couple days. OPEN EVERY BOTTLE ONCE A DAY WHILE FERMENTING. if you don't, they will explode :)

when root beer has reached the desired fizziness, transfer to a fridge to halt the fermentation process. it will keep for about 3 months :)

Aspired by her aunt's current job during a young age, this slightly made Sayoko admire some detectives in some of the novels and games she had as a child during her studies as a heiress, though she's slightly secretive about it and somewhat became a closet gamer but her parents and aunt seem to know about but decided to pry it but they do support her since she did a good job on being heiress and a closet gamer separately.

Sayoko is slightly quiet, preserve and a little sensitive in herself, although she doesn't stutter whenever she speaks to someone but doesn't seem to like a close-up or direct eye-contact to anyone during a conversation which it would scare her for a bit, which she ends up ending the talk and then walk away pretty fast.

She's mostly seen with Freya, Yaeko, and Akio and the rest of her half-myth companions in the campus, her interaction with them are slightly different than interacting with either a stranger to not. Let's just say that she's slightly uncomfortable with someone to someone knew which it might take some time for her to get used to a close up eye-contact from someone she isn't familiar with.

Like some of her friends int he school, she too is a member of the SIDC company but is a trainee in Quinn's rank like Yaeko and Akio, Sayoko herself tends to be slightly serious when working there.

But aside from that, Sayoko seems to be friendly and sweet despite her timidity if you get close to her in a different method possible. She tends to hold all of her curiosity back whenever someone catches her eyes, it's either something she likes or just curious of but in the end she'll learn to like it. Either way, Sayoko herself couldn't help it after all.

Timidity is sometimes an act of a hidden mask, is what she secretly calls it. Sayoko being silent is another way of being cautious towards anyone who had intentions, either good or bad which she never seemed to have an opinion onto except she's a bit distance but if something snapped within herself, it's a split side of her that no one expects to see from her eventually.

Sometimes the act of her timidly and silence behavior is a bit of a weapon that is difficult to bring down to...

ashlan’s parents divorced when he was in hs so his mother moved to new york city and he and his father stayed in melbourne. he ended up going to university in aus and studied history

he’s a huge history nerd but i am not so let’s just have fun!

one day his mother was like...............you should try to transferring to columbia because what if........you get in and she was bein weird about it but he was like okay lol and he got in because he’s smart (allegedly) and his grades were good but mostly because he knows a few languages and was in 8237846 clubs and is also athletic so they were like?? a one of a kind genius also his mom had gallagher ties to columbia because that sounds........believable......

then ofc gallagher opened up to boys and his mom was like. btw i Actually was a spy, not a microbiologist forever like u thot and you should go train to be a spy and he was like o word? because he likes trying new things clearly (even though highkey history is his one true Passion)

he was here last year so now he’s a second year the end

(( daniel sharman, 29, he/him, bisexual  )) have you met [LUKE MICHAELS ]? they’re a well known [POGUE] in the outer banks. rumor has it they can be [CHARMING  && HARD WORKING] but also [SECRETIVE  && STUBBORN ]. they’ve lived on the island for [TWENTY NINE ] years and work as a/an [CUSTOMS MECHANIC]. when you hear their name, you can always picture [GREASE STAINED HANDS, SMUDGES OF SHADOWS UNDER EYES, REVVING ENGINES AT A STARTING LINE ].

S T A T I S T I C S

full name : Luke B. Michaels  age : twenty-nine height : 6′2  occupation  :  customs mechanic sexuality :  bisexual recognizable by: bright eyes, oil stained hands and rags in pockets, scar over left shoulder and down his back. personality: when he grew up here he was charming and outgoing, loved people and surfing and parties and fast cars. Ever since his return he’s been a bit more withdrawn, the years away taking their toll on his relationships with others. Kind of a grump, but get him to laugh and it’s just,,, good. aesthetic  :  grease stained hands, smudged shadows of bruises under eyes, revving engines at a starting line, cheap cold beer, wintergreen gum, scuffed doc martens, five o clock shadow, kickstarting motorcycles.

H I S T O R Y

Luke grew up in the obx, older brother to finn and oldest son. family was full of hard workers, so he grew up knowing life wouldn’t ever be handed to him, not really.

was pretty popular in high school for the most part, swam for the school, got alright grades, but never really committed to doing anything full on. But his love was for cars, and when he was 15 he traded some shit for a beat up old car on a junk lot, and spent two summers fixing it up. And that was where it began. 

When he graduated and stuck around, tensions slowly arose here and there with their dad who wanted his son to commit to something. Anything, really.

Went to college locally to stick around for Finn mostly, doing what he could to pop in here and there on his brother. Got his associate’s but never transferred. Got a job assisting at the local body shop instead. 

&& then their parents died !! luke was 22, and mildly spiraling. knows a lot more than he lets on about their death but, we’ll deal with that later

 Did his best to be there for Finn while keeping them afloat, but once Finn was 18, Luke took a job on the mainland to make more money for them both. It meant leaving his little brother behind, and while that tugged at something in his gut, this is what he had to do. (at least, in his mind)

Became a mechanic after a few months training with a guy on the mainland, years of tinkering with his car and others finally paying off somehow. And so he worked, and got good. Helped do a lot of customs work, detailing, etc. && then a friend told him about the night races downtown.

Never in the same location twice, street races between a few local kids and kooks that had escaped kildare for a while. It was pretty fun, and even better money. His dad owed way too much to a stupid kook, so it made sense.

So that became his world from the age of 22-27, working by day and racing by night for large amounts of cash, most of which he either stored away, paid the debts off piece by piece or sent back to Kildare to pay for the house, whatever finn would need to get by. It was a shitty system, but it worked. He made more money than he’d ever thought a pogue could, his only indulgence a motorcycle he rides more often than his car.

had a gf for three years that dumped him when he wouldn’t marry her, and a boyfriend for 6 months that just liked him for his pretty car. He doesn’t really do the whole serious dating thing much anymore.

 illegal racing career ended at 27 in a crash, literally. He tore up his shoulder pretty bad, the scar still spanning across his back and down his spine. A few inches closer and he wouldn’t have walked again. Luke figured it was a sign, spent the months in PT closing himself off from the scene, ad started to get serious.

When the owner of his shop mentioned a son wanting to open a little location back in the outer banks a few months back, luke figured it was sign # 2. Go home, figure your shit out, talk to your goddamn brother. So he did, and now he’s back in town, working at the auto shop.

Mostly does repairs, but has found decent work customizing or enhancing cars for all the rich kooks who want to put on a show with their fast cars and bikes.

W A N T E D  C O N N E C T I O N S

down for p much anything & everything !! he’s an older dude so classmates etc is out so!! let’s brainstorm.

Spartan - Arrow Music Notes 7x19

This episode is focused on John Diggle: his past with his step-father and his future for his sons.  In the present, Team Arrow joins up with General Stewart to find Emiko and Felicity faces Archer being used as a weapon by the Ninth Circle.

This is a relatively short review as there were not a lot of specific moments to bring out musically.

John Diggle

After intercepting a file transfer between an ARGUS agent and the Ninth Circle, Felicity recognizes that the files were protected by the Department of Defense. Diggle offers to meet the General, his step-father, who is a high-up official within that department.  When General Stewart critizes Diggle’s career choices to leave ARGUS and go play vigilante “a dead-end career,” Diggle’s horn theme (3 notes) play. It repeats again with the third note changing as John says that he left ARGUS to protect his family.  The motif represents the essence of who John is: a hero who protects his family.  This version is the more frequently played version and first heard in 1x20 “No Show” in guitar harmonics when Diggle got mad at Oliver for failing to help with Deadshot. Interestingly enough, the first time it is heard in horn (for a hero) is when he lets Deadshot go in 2x06 “Digg lets Deadshot go”. Loyalty and family are two of the most important parts to John Diggle in making him a hero.

Guitar and bass harmonics were an important feature for John’s music before horn and this sound returns as he insists on accompanying the General to find the assets at a safe house because he doesn’t trust his step-father, blaming him for his father’s death or at least abandoning him. Later on, the horn returns when Oliver tells John the truth about the General and his father.  As John tells General Stewart that the Team will go stop Emiko showing a move of trust, the harmonies turn major showing a change of heart for Diggle.

At the end, Diggle asks his step-father why he lied, letting him hate him for years. Horn plays as the General replied that every son should believe his father is a hero. John responds that if he is a hero, then it was due to his step-father and as they hug, John’s motif returns for family and heroism.

Flash-fowards - JJ and Connor

The flash-forwards reveal that the Diggle family still has some issues as it is revealed that JJ is the leader of the Deathstroke gang.  As Connor shows the Deathstroke mark, the Deathstroke electronic downward glide plays. This theme/sound “Deathstroke” first appeared in 1x05 with Billy Wintergreen and has accompanied every version of Deathstroke since: Wintergreen, Slade Wilson, Joe Wilson, and now JJ Diggle.  It goes with the symbol of Deathstroke and not who is underneath the mask.

Later on, Mia asks Connor about what it was like to have a gang leader for a brother and Connor opens up a little about his family: JJ rebelling against their dad, Connor stuck in the middle.  As he shares this, a new theme made up of 4 sets of three notes and then a pause begins in a higher electronic sound which is something unique and yet fitting with the future music.  The first three notes play again as Connor and Mia stare into each other’s eyes after running from the gang members.  I believe this could be their theme (SmoaknHawke) but we will have to wait to know for sure. Considering we have only two more episodes...we may be waiting until next fall.

Emiko and Dante

Oliver and the Team arrive to attempt to stop Emiko and the Ninth Circle from taking a bio weapon and using Archer.  An electronic sound used for Emiko’s scenes (which reminds me of an alarm) plays as Oliver tells her that Dante killed her mother.  Then her string and toms theme plays as they fight. 

Both of these aspects return at the end as the alarm electronics play while Emiko shoots Dante and then her main theme reoccurs as she tells him to rot in hell.

Extra Notes: 

- Usually piano is used for Oliver scenes but in this episode it was used for Felicity as she shared with Alena that she wanted to make her mark on the world as Felicity and not just Overwatch.  The music soundscape returned near the end as Alena tells her that it is not Archer that is destined to change the world but Felicity.

- It was a good episode but not a lot of things stood out in the music.  Considering all the work that went into the previous Canary episode and most likely the last three (lots of Roy in 7x20), it does happen. I can write short reviews!

Heres part 1 of the comic I made for my printmaking class. It's inconsistent and I used two different printing techniques but I finished it. First page also reads right to left bc I fucked up. I will make a finally version in which the art is actually good and consistent and colored.

All the Pretty Animals

I did photo transfers (with wintergreen oil) of vintage animals from either calendars, rare books, or vintage postcards and made an accordion style book.  I painted the wooden book covers and then used a rubber stamp as a final touch.
