Welcome to Horizon-Ranger! An exploration into the world of Horizon Zero Dawn through the lens of National Park Service style posts.
As someone who works in the outdoor industry, I have quite some experience in NPS style interpretation, but also a wide breadth of knowledge about nature, cultures, and history to apply to thinks found in HZD! I'm a HUGE hzd fan with lots of know on the world so it just makes sense to blend my two interests together!
So whether it's tidbits about the culture of the Nora or a post about the Windgate sandstone of Meridian, I hope we all have fun and learn about the wild world of HZD and come to appreciate our own

First Roleplay: Caught Naughty in the Wild
We have a favorite place out in the country that we like to get nakie and get naughty at. It’s a wildlife area with some hiking trails, and has a nice secluded parking lot off the road. We park and head down the trail only about a hundred yards/meters and then we make a sharp left off the trail. There’s a clearing where we lay down a blanket. The road is actually very close and we can hear car doors close from the parking lot. Kind of adds to the risqué excitement of possibly getting caught! Which actually happened to us back in May of 2011 where Kissy was riding reverse cowgirl on top, with Jack laying on his back facing the sky? She suddenly slows down and says “Ummm, there’s somebody walking towards us!” When we realized it was an adult, and that he was obviously interested in watching, Kissy simply said “Oh well” and proceeded to ride Jack hard, with her boobies bouncing up and down facing the approaching man, whom would stop, get a little closer, and stop again. He enjoyed the show from about 20 feet/meters away while he wacked off and then eventually just walked off into the wilderness without a word exchanged. The “dogging” experience actually inspired us to make a fantasy of ours come true. We always enjoyed the fantasy of getting caught by the park ranger (or park rangers, hee hee) and forced to do naughty things as to not get taking to jail. Last fall (Sept 2012) we decided to contact a friend of ours, Bob, that we met online and eventually had met in person once, but at the time we we’re really seeking the same thing. We remained friends with him and when this roleplay idea came to us, he was someone we trusted and knew he could fit the role. We plotted the scenario out with him and when we were all comfortable with the scene, as well as the limitations, we set our date one sunny Sunday afternoon. We gave Bob a map of where we’d be and told him what time. We got to our spot a little earlier and proceeded to get nakie and naughty. After about 20 minutes we realized we might not be easy to find, so we decided to be very vocal in our love making! While Jack was hammering Kissy quite hard on all fours a man appeared out of nowhere it seemed and exclaimed, “What the hell are you guys doing? This is my property!” Shocked, and both completely naked, we apologized and told him we’d immediately get dressed and leave. He told us not so fast, that he had to call the cops, this was unacceptable. We pleaded with him that we would do anything, whatever he asked just to let us go. “I need to think about this, because I’m tired of trespassers on my property. I want you ID’s”. We handed him our driver’s licenses, so he now knew our full names and where we lived. “Okay Jack, I want you to get back to fucking Kissy as you were doing when I showed up. I want to hear her moan again!”, to which Jack started slowly moving in and out of Kissy from behind in front of the watchful eyes of Bob, the evil landowner. “Lay Kissy down and spread her legs. Fuck her missionary.” in which Jack and Kissy obeyed. “Okay, now stand up Kissy. I want to examine you closer”. She reluctantly obeyed, crossing her arms over her boobs. “Oh, now you’re going to find modesty? No no, my little slut. Put your arms up over your head. That’s right. Let me see those titties!”, as he cupped his hands on her breasts and started pinching her nipples. “Nice tits slut. Your nipples sure got hard fast. Jack, I think she is enjoying this.” “Yes Sir”, murmured Jack as he stood quietly watching a stranger fondle his wife. “Jack, I need you to put Kissy’s panties on for me. Yes, those sheer black panties should fit your little cock just fine. NOW boy!!” Bob grabbed Kissy’s panties and threw them at Jack. Jack sheepishly put them on. Kissy giggled. “Now kneel down. Right here where you can watch and maybe learn something!” Bob had a walking stick with him. He used it to examine Kissy. Smacking her on her ass a couple times while telling her what a fucking slut she was. He asked her how she could ever be satisfied with Jack’s small cock. She giggled some more. Jack turned red. Bob then started feeling her ass and moved around to her front and groped her tits more, working his way down to her pussy, where he discovered her soaking wetness. He then started fingering her as she stood there, eyes now closed, gentle moans coming from her mouth. “What’s that?” Bob asked as he pointed down to the blanked next to Kissy’s purse. “It’s a vibrator Sir”, replied Jack. “Oh my! I think I want to watch Kissy use it! Lie down my dear. That’s right, get comfortable. Now spread your legs and show me how you use your toy!” Kissy obeyed and gave Bob, and cuckold Jack, a fine show, reaching a vocal orgasm after about ten minutes. “That got me very hard Kissy.” said Bob. “I need you to unzip my shorts. Get on your knees now slut and take my cock out. I’ll show you what a real cock looks like!” Kissy unzipped his shorts and pulled them down, his underwear too. His large cock sprang in front of her face. Bob grabbed the back of Kissy’s head and slowly pulled her onto his throbbing unit. Slow at first, and then faster. He began face fucking Kissy as she seemed to be in synch with his hand on the back of her head, gripping her ponytail tightly. After a few minutes he told her wanted to be more comfortable and laid down, with Kissy straddling him and using her oral expertise to lick his balls and shaft like a wife whom needed a big cock and couldn’t get enough. She went down on him and they both enjoyed a long blow job. He taunted Jack, telling him “Your wife sucks good cock boy!” “She really wants me Jack. She can’t get enough. Look at her go Jack!”. “You like my big cock Kissy?” to which she just moaned a positive “Mmmm Mmm”! As Bob got closer to climax, he stood up and Kissy knelt in front of him. He face fucked her until he exploded, his first blast in her mouth, then one on her face, and the rest unloaded on her titties. “Oh Jack, she swallows! Now come over here and lick my cum from her face and tits and you too better swallow every drop” to which Jack eagerly obeyed. “Now Jack, I want you to fuck her from behind again so I can watch her getting fucked hard. Jack bent Kissy over and fucked her while Bob had Kissy lick his cock clean. Eventually Jack exploded while Bob watched intently. When we were done, we all got up, got dressed, and we discussed how things went. We laughed when Bob told us he got lost, and thankfully we got very vocal as he heard us moan in the wilderness and knew it was us!

Where I’m Meant to Be
Tumblr media
*Not my gif*
Pairing: Mouse x Reader
Requested: Yes
Prompt: Mouse goes back to the Rangers, and goes silent.
Warnings: None
A/N: Sorry this one took so long I restarted it a few times before I settled on a story line, hope you enjoy it!
As I was sat in the doctors office I couldn’t help the flutter that was clear in my stomach. I tried to occupy myself, nervously playing with my hands looking around at all the posters hung up around the walls. Some of them only making me more nervous. If I’m being completely honest, I didn’t know why I was here. I already knew. I knew even before I took the 3 at home tests, but I guess I just needed a formal confirmation in order to stop psyching myself out. The doctor opened the door smiling just as he went to shut it I felt my phone buzz and looked down to see “Jay Hal” pop up on my phone. Which wasn’t anything abbormal and I had just heard from Mouse a few minutes before so I quickly silenced it turning my attention back over to the doctor. “Well, Ms. [Y/L/N], it came back positive. Congratulations.” He smiled at me and then went on to explain to me everything I needed to know and what I could look forward to in the coming weeks before my next appointment. After returning to my car I opened my phone back up to see a couple messages from Jay consisting of variations of “call me when you get a chance.” I started my car up and began to head on my way home calling Jay in the meantime.
“Halstead.” Jay answered, clearly without looking at the caller ID, his voice ringing over the Bluetooth in my car.
“Yeah, what’s up.” I asked him knowing he would recognize my voice.
“When the fuck did he decide this? Are you really okay with it?” He spit out anger taking over his voice.
“Huh?” I asked confused.
“Greg.” He stated, and I knew it must’ve been bad considering Jay used his actual name.
“What’d he do?” I asked still confused.
“He just told me so you don’t have to avoid the subject with me anymore.” Jay huffed.
“Honestly Jay I have no idea what you’re talking about.” I answered camly.
“Oh okay, I gotta go then.” Jay stumbled out.
“Absolutely not, Halstead tell me what’s going on.” I rushed out before he hung up.
“Really [Y/N], this is something you should talk to him about.” Jay answered clearly realzing he had messed up.
“Yeah well too late for that, spill.” I shrugged even though he couldn’t see me.
“He told me he’s thinking about going back in.” Jay sighed heavily, my heart dropping to my stomach at the words.
“No he’s not. Stop screwing with me.” I laughed nervously.
“I promise I wouldn’t mess with you about this, I just figured you’d be the first person he would talk to..” Jay trailed.
“Yeah.. me too.” I sighed telling Jay that I had to go before hanging up. I spent the rest of the day in anticipation waiting for Mouse to come home. As much as I couldn’t wait to see him after my doctors appointment after Jay’s call I seemed to feel the exact opposite. I was a mix of emotions none of which I thought I’d be feeling in the same day. I didn’t react whenever Mouse came walking in the door. He walked up behind me from where I seated on the the couch.
“Hi babe, how was your day?” He asked leaning down to kiss me on the head.
“Fine.” I mumbled not averting my attention away from the TV although I couldn’t even tell you what I was actually watching.
“Okay..What are we doing for dinner? Cooking or ordering in? Or do you want to go somewhere?” He asked trying to get my attention rubbing my shoulders.
“Up to you.” I shrugged.
“What’s up?” He asked cautiously. I looked back at him but turned back around not answering. I wasn’t sure if at this point it was smarter to get in a fight with him or just give him the silent treatment so far I’d just been running with the latter. “[Y/N], come on talk to me.” He begged.
“Now you want to talk?” I asked harshly. He sighed in realization.
“Okay just hear me out..” he began.
“No Greg. No. We live together we’re supposed to be building a life together, and that means including each other in little decisions let alone deicisions as big as this. But honestly whatever. If you don’t look at it that way that’s fine. Do what you want.” I started off yelling but ended up whispering by the end of my rant. I looked at him tears flowing down my face as I walked towards our bedroom slamming the door. It didn’t take long for Mouse to come knocking at the door slowly opening it.
“[Y/N], I’m so sorry. I just didn’t want to worry you until I knew for sure what I was doing. I didn’t even know if I could get my record removed, and I thought it only made sense to tell Jay first. He knows what it’s like. He was by my side through it all and I just thought it’d make more sense. I still want to talk to you about it. It’s just that whenever I’m over there I feel like I’m something good. I’m fighting the bad guys, I’m making it better for everyone here. But I feel like I don’t know what I’m doing here in Chicago. I don’t know if I’m doing good here. Other than to you and Jay I’m really just nothing. I meant something when I was over there.” Mouse explained to me. I wanted to yell and him scream at him that I needed him, he meant everything to me. That he’s doing good by staying here with me. That he was going to have a son or daughter and they needed him here. He was going to be a dad, and was definitely not going to be just a “nobody.” But I couldn’t. I couldn’t use that to guilt him into staying. I couldn’t keep him back from doing what he was meant to do, or atleast what he felt like he was meant to do. So, I let him go. I let him go without telling him any of that. Standing at the airport I was still struggling. He needed to know about the baby right? It was absolutely killing me not being able to tell him, but I didn’t want him to think I was trapping him. So, I went about it the best way I could. I stood with Jay giving Mouse our final hugs, ready to send him off. Away from us. “I love you so much.” Mouse said hugging me tightly.
“Greg... I know this probably isn’t the best time to do this, but you need to know before you leave..” I started looking down. He looked at me confused. “I’m pregnant. You’re gonna be a dad. I wanted to tell you before. So bad, but I just didn’t want you to feel like you had to stay. I didn’t want you to think I was guilting you, but I just need you to know that now more than before you need to be smart babe. Come home to us safely please.” I begged beginning to cry. Jay and Mouse had the same shocked expression on their faces when I looked up. Right the last call for the flight went over the intercom. Mouse seemed frozen in shock still so I pulled him into a hug repeatedly telling him how much I loved him before kissing him. He did the same before hugging Jay tightly heading off towards the plane.
I had been able to talk to Mouse almost every other day either on the phone or video chat which was kind of shocking knowing how hard their schedules can be. So whenever the calls became more infrequent I wasn’t too shocked. It wasn’t until it had hit the 2 week mark of no communication that I got nervous. Jay and I had talked about it and he tried to calm me down, but he was nervous too I could tell. Everyday that went past I got more and more sick. I couldn’t live without Mouse. Getting through the few weeks without him gone was horrible enough but to actually lose him? To not plan for him to come home? To plan for a funeral instead? These thoughts flooded my mind. As I was distracting myself one night with work I heard a knock at my door. My heart immediately dropped to the floor thinking, this is it. This is the moment my life is going to change for the worse. I took a huge deep breath before opening the door, and of course at my door there was soldier. But not just any soldier. Mouse. It took me a minute to process, but I quickly lept into his arms throwing him off balance a little making him chuckle. “What are you doing here!?” I asked not letting him go so he just walked in the house with me wrapped around him.
“I was wrong.” He smiled at me setting me down on the couch along side him.
“What do you mean?” I looked at him confused.
“I’m meant to be here. With you. With our baby. I don’t want you to got through this alone. I want to experience every part of this with you. You make me feel like I mean something and not being here with you... it just feels wrong. Even for the very short amount of time I was gone. I don’t feel complete without you next to me, and I can’t wait to be a dad. I don’t want to miss any second of it.” He said rubbing his hand across my cheek. I couldn’t help the tears that started to roll down my face.
“I thought you died you idiot!” I yelled smacking him.
“Hey!” He laughed “I had to take care of some stuff and it wasn’t the fastest trip back.” He smiled.
“Well you better call Jay he’s been worried.” I giggled.
“Yeah I’m sure that’s exactly what was happening.” He rolled his eyes. Pulling me into him to kiss me. My life had felt like a whirlwind in the last month, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.

Chapter 11
masterlist
author’s note: warning this chapter is soft AF 
word count: 1,033
The rest of the night I couldn’t stop thinking about what Jimmy had said, imaging what us living together would be like, or rather what living with him and his two roommates would be like.
But, that’s all it ever was- just a thought.
Days turned to weeks and weeks turned to months, and thing shad returned to normal. I rarely bumped into Richard in the elevator or in the lobby, and when I did it wasn’t awkward, at all. Probably due to the fact that he had his arm slinked around some other blonde, but it was okay. I was okay. Especially, because Jimmy and I had been spending more time together. Yes, we had drifted back into our old routines, but it was different, because it was more than that. We did everything together. And, before I knew it the hockey season was upon us. Returning to the days of going to games, wearing that bright blue jersey as I cheered from my seat, a few rows back from the glass. But it also meant the return of going weeks of not seeing that dumb smirk on his face, and texting casually trying to fit each other into our busy schedules.
It was easier when we were in college- to see each other. There were classes and opportunities to study to each other and grabbing a casual drink or walking with each other to class. But, now, we were real adults and somewhere along the lines things became more and more complicated.
This year was especially different. I hadn’t gone to one of his preseason games. Which, wasn’t a huge deal considering it was only the preseason, I thought. But, as I looked to the other side of the couch where Jimmy was sitting, or rather sulking I realized just how big of a deal it was.
“You need to stop.” I said, turning to Jimmy, who was ignoring me.
“Are you actually mad?” I asked.
“No.” He mumbled. “I didn’t even play in most of them.”
“Okay, so what’s the deal then?”
“I just like it when you come.” A smile crept onto my lips as he spoke, which he wasted no time in trying to brush off. “Okay, okay settle down.”
This, of course, only made me smile more. It took a second, but things died down and the two of you settled back down returning your attention to the show on the TV.
“You are coming tomorrow though, right?”
“Depends on if your nice to me or not.” I smiled, sticking my tongue out. He rolled his eyes, shaking his head as he turned once more to the TV. A few hours later he left. Really, I kicked him out, insisting that he needed to get some sleep before his game. The first game of the season. It was important, and I prayed the Rangers won.
But, as my eyes jolted awake at the sound of my ringtone. I knew I wouldn’t be getting much sleep tonight. There were two reasons I could be getting a phone calla t this hour, someone died or one of my friends got too drunk and needed me to come pick them up. As I looked at the caller ID and saw Jimmy’s name, I knew it was neither, and with piqued interest I answered the phone.
“Hi.” I breathed, my voice still heavy with sleep.
“What’s up”
“Jimmy, It’s three in the morning. You better now have called me to say what’s up.” I groaned groggily, as my hand slid over my face, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.
“I just wanted to talk to you.”
“At three in the morning?” I asked, trying to hide the annoyance in my voice. These were precious sleep hours and he was disrupting them.
“Yeah, this was a bad idea, I’ll le-“ He started before I interrupted him.
“Well, I’m awake now.” I yawned, stretching my arms over my head as I laid the phone next to me on the pillow. “So what’s keeping you awake?”
The line went silent for a second, before I heard a sigh. “I don’t know.” Jimmy exhaled. He sounded stressed, anxious, restless. “I know we were joking around earlier but you’re coming tomorrow, right?” He asked. “To the game?” He clarified.
“Do you want me there?”
“Of course.” He answered instantly.
“Then I’ll be there.”
“Good.” He said softly. The line went quiet yet again. I was waiting for him to say something, to tell me what was really on his mind. But, still, silence filled the air.
“Jimmy?” I asked.
“Yeah.”
“It’s just like every other game.” I reminded him, knowing that I was opening the door that he wanted to stay close. But, I also knew that that was the reason that he called me.
“I-“ He started. “I just want this season to be better.”
“I know.” That was the hardest thing about being his friend, seeing him lose, especially when all he wanted was to win- not in an overly competitive way, but in a not-letting-everyone-down way. And that was how he felt after last season, and I would give anything not to see him like that again.
“It will be.” I encouraged, trying to leave some positivity in his head.
I sat there staring at the phone, letting my words linger. The conversation was over, both of us knew that, but for some reason I couldn’t hang up the phone. I just wanted to stay there for forever, in the comforting silence his presence brought. And, I could tell he felt the same.
“I should get to sleep.” He said. I could hear the exhaustion in his voice, and I reminded myself that I should probably also be doing the same.
“Yeah.” I breathed.
“Yeah.”
It was silly, I felt like a teenager wrapped up in her first love, unable to hang up the phone, but here I was unable to hang up the phone.
But, eventually I had to, and even though I knew it was only going to be a few hours until I next spoke to him, it was near impossible to get myself to push that little red button.

Hey! I absolutely love the blue line series, I’m obsessed with the actual Rangers because of this and your writing is wonderful. I was wondering if you write something about Robin, Regina and Roland’s relationship with Henry? Or anything about Henry’s life as a member of the Locksley-Mills family.
Tumblr media
Of course, anon! So I was going to do some bullet points because I’ve got some thoughts and, like, Roland idolizes Henry when they’re growing up and Henry only ever wears a Jones jersey, but he plays center like Robin and he’s pretty good at hockey, even if he never goes pro and…I digress. I wrote some things instead. Time-wise, Henry’s 18 and getting ready to apply to college and here are some feelings. 
“Hello?”
Emma blinked, twisting her lip between her teeth and she wasn’t entirely prepared for the clipped tone on the other end of the phone.
“Emma,” Regina said, and she sat up straighter. The baby in her arms didn’t entirely appreciate that. “Emma,” Regina repeated. “I can see your name on the caller ID. I know it’s you. Unless it’s Matt and then Matt, I need you to give your mom back your phone. And tell your dad to respond to my e-mails.”
“What e-mails?” Emma asked.
“I knew it was you.”
“Are you negotiating endorsements with my four year old?”
“Certainly not if I can help it.”
Emma laughed under her breath, mumbling a string of nonsense into the tiny bit of dark hair in her arms and she was fairly positive her left leg was going to go numb. They had a game later that night – a few weeks removed from Christmas and Peggy’s first birthday and Emma had spent the majority of the day organizing several Garden of Dreams holiday-themed events, while trying to make sure that the towel on her shoulder stayed on her shoulder.
And reading Henry’s college application essay.
And not crying over Henry’s college application essay.
Which was why she’d twisted herself into an intricate human pretzel and called Regina, several tear-stained pages on her desk.
She’d totally failed on that whole not crying thing.
“Emma,” Regina muttered, and it was clear her patience was wearing thin. “Did you call me to discuss your husband’s endorsement deals? Because there’s a commercial that’s available and they want to use the entire first line and—“
“—No, no, I didn’t,” Emma interrupted. She could almost see Regina’s eyebrows jump, and Peggy made a noise that might have been a gurgle. The towel was working harder than any professional hockey player would that night.
“Then what’s going on?”
Emma grimaced – and she was sure Regina’s eyes widened and her lips probably thinned and they weren’t really the best of friends, but Regina did regularly influence the amount of money coming into the Swan-Jones household and Emma was, at least, ninety-six percent positive half of Matt’s clothes were in Roland’s room and…
“I do have a meeting in ten minutes,” Regina said sharply, and Emma clicked her teeth in frustration. “So unless someone is dying or there’s a career-ending injury I need to be aware of, then…”
“Oh my God, Gina, it’s nothing like that.”
Emma assumed she did something ridiculous with her face again. Probably glared at open air. And negotiated that commercial deal. Emma would have to mention that to Killian.
He was absolutely ignoring his e-mail.
“Then what’s going on?” Regina asked, voice not quite as sharp and, maybe, a little cautious, and Emma tried to take a deep breath through her nose.
Peggy made that noise again.
“Henry gave me his college application essay,” Emma said, rushing over the words and there were tears in her eyes again. What a goddamn disaster. She hoped they won later.
“Oh.”
Emma waited for the rest of it – the questions or comments or pointed opinions – but there was just silence. Or, relative silence. Peggy gurgled.
“Regina,” Emma mumbled, met with a sound that might have been a grunt or possibly a huff and she was going to have to make a list of all the things she had to tell Killian about this conversation.
“Still here,” she whispered. She sounded disappointed. “Were you just calling to tell me?”
“No, no, this is…I promise it’s good.”
More silence.
More gurgling.
“I’m serious,” Emma added, digging her heels into her office carpet and she heard the ding of Regina’s computer from several blocks downtown.
“Did you e-mail me this?”
“Yes.”
“Why? If Henry gave it to you then—“
“Oh my God, Regina, just read it. I swear this is a good thing.”
Regina hummed in disbelief, and there was the pointed opinion Emma had been waiting for. It took, by her count, forty-eight and a half seconds for Regina’s breath to audibly catch and mumble a quiet oh under her breath and she must have been some kind of speed reader.
And then Regina sniffled.
That was suddenly point number one on the list of things Emma had to tell Killian. Before the game.
“Henry wrote this?” Regina asked softly, and Emma nodded, well aware that the only person who could see her was a nearly-one-year-old baby who was already wearing a Jones jersey and yanking on a Stanley Cup ring with a surprising amount of strength.
“That’s why I figured you should read it.”
“Right, right, right, that’s um…thank you.”
Emma hummed, eyes flitting back to the sheets she’d printed out hours before. He was going to send it half a dozen schools – something about a guidance counselor’s advice and what was supposed to happen and Emma didn’t have much to add, just promised she’d read it and then she cried when she read it and, well, now she was pretty positive Regina was crying too.
When I was five years old, the foster home I was living in lost its cable subscription. I don’t know why. I’m not even sure the people running the house knew why, but it happened and there was no more Disney channel and no more Nickelodeon and the only thing to watch on a Sunday afternoon were over the air channels.
And the only thing on over the air channels on a Sunday afternoon was hockey.
New York Rangers hockey.
I should probably thank whoever forgot to pay that cable bill because that game changed my life.
I watched the game. I had no idea what was going on. It didn’t matter. I watched, and ignored the other kids and how much they wanted to watch Power Rangers instead, and when I turned ten I got my first Killian Jones jersey.
I never thought much about having a family.
Those kinds of thoughts were dangerous in foster homes – places where kids weren’t wanted or needed or, sometimes, even remembered. So I pushed those wants and those hopes into the back corner of my mind and figured if the Rangers could, eventually, win a Stanley Cup it was, basically, the same thing.
But then something happened.
A few weeks before I turned twelve, a call came to the house. There was an event. At Madison Square Garden. And I was going.
I cried.
The kids made fun of me, but they always made fun of how loudly I cheered during games, so it wasn’t much different. I went to the Garden and a woman named Emma Swan changed my life. She introduced me to Killian Jones and Killian Jones introduced me to the entire New York Rangers roster and, even though I didn’t know it at the time, I met my family that day.
I still didn’t think about it much, couldn’t let myself hope or dream, but the Rangers kept winning games and I kept watching and suddenly I wasn’t just cheering for hockey, I was part of hockey and part of a team and I never left.
Emma Swan changed my life. Killian Jones changed my life. But my parents saved my life.
Robin Locksley currently owns the Rangers all-time face-off win record. Regina Mills-Locksley currently dictates the contracts of nearly a dozen NHL stars and will, probably, get the entire Rangers first line another commercial deal by the time you read this essay.
But, more than that, Robin and Regina took me into their home and made sure I stayed. They gave me a room. They bought me team-march. They didn’t mind when I kept wearing that ratty Jones jersey for years.
They loved me.
Love me. Present tense.
I’m lucky. Incredibly so. Unbelievably so. The New York Rangers saved the foster home I grew up in; made sure the other kids who weren’t as lucky wouldn’t get shipped around the country or away from their friends when budget cuts threaten to do just that. The New York Rangers won the Stanley Cup. Twice. And I was there. Twice.
I’m lucky, but more than that I’m happy - and it wouldn’t have been possible without my mom or my dad or my brother or that entire hockey team that adopted me. That loves me. And I love ‘em right back.
That’d probably get me made fun of in the house again, but I’ll keep cheering anyway and keep believing and the Rangers are going to win another Cup. 
Soon.
There was more – more words and more feelings and Emma couldn’t read it again, because she really did have to get ready for the game, but Regina was silent again on the other end.
“If I ask if you’re still here are you going to retract Killian’s commercial offer?” Emma asked, not entirely expecting Regina’s quiet laugh.
“No, he’s the focus of the whole goddamn thing. Don’t tell Scarlet that.”
“I’m totally going to tell Scarlet that.”
“Ah, well, that might be good for his ego.” Emma hummed, waiting for the rest of it and determined not to ask anything else, and she was almost hopeful Peggy had fallen asleep. She had a few assumptions though. And maybe a bit of hope. “That’s the first time he’s used those words,” Regina said, answering the question Emma hadn’t asked. “I know you were wondering, so, there.”
“So there?”
“Yes, exactly that.”
Emma scoffed, Regina exhaling like it was the first time she’d ever done anything like that. “You guys haven’t…”
“It wasn’t…” Regina, started, cutting herself off quickly, and they seriously had to win. Maybe that should have been number one on the list of things to tell Killian. “It was just a label and words and letters and I’ve…Robin and I are Henry’s parents. We have been since we signed those papers and I just…”
She sniffled again, and this whole conversation was a fantastic exercise in patience and emotion. “I always kind of wondered how it’d sound though,” she whispered.
“Pretty damn good,” Emma said.
“Yeah, yeah, it does.”
“He’s going to get accepted to every single college he applies to so you should really work on that commercial thing for the money or whatever.”
“Those are absolutely the technical terms,” Regina laughed, any tension in her voice disappearing. “Tell your husband to answer my e-mails.”
“Tell your kid he made me cry. More than one.”
“Deal.”
The Rangers won. And Robin scored. And there was probably some kind of fate involved in that, but this was the kind of team that won Stanley Cups and gold medals and team wasn’t really the right word anyway because it was a family and that was stupid emotional.
And years later, after more stories and that guaranteed championship, Henry asked Ella to marry him, bent on one knee with that family he’d never allowed himself to hope for around him and a ring pinched in between his fingers.
“It’s my mom’s,” he said, and Regina’s gaze flitted towards Emma’s, tears in her eyes and a smile on her face and Henry’s whole life changed all over again.

11 - Trimberly?
(funny enough, I sent this same exact combo to Trimberghly! Also I don’t know wtf happened because I was aiming for
11. things you said when you were drunk
“Alright, explosion and balls back! How you like me now?”
“Yeah yeah, lucky shot. I’d like to see you guys do that again.”
Trini never used to be big on house parties. For one, people never invited her thanks to her exchange student anonymity, but secondly she just didn’t see the point. They often consist of drunk reckless kids acting like idiots talking shallowly to strangers because they both know that neither will remember in the morning. Houses get stuffy and packed to the brim with bodies, resulting in uncomfortably overheated conditions and general unpleasantries all around.
Drinks get spilled, outfits get dirtied, and there’s always at least one mysterious stain that lingers by the end of the night, but party goers endure it all for various personal reasons. Sometimes to unwind from the stress of the week by letting loose and having fun, but more commonly it was an opportunity to hook up. 
It was a scene that Trini never used to frequent.
Until Kimberly happened.
Kimberly loves parties. She loves the atmosphere, the raw energy, and overall positive vibes of people enjoying themselves, and ever since Kimberly became Trini’s best friend, Trini’s come to love them too in her own weird way. 
That’s not to say that she actively goes out every weekend or partakes in Thirsty Thursdays like so many other teens do - hell, everyone needs a break from the action. Too much partying can tire a person out, both physically and mentally, and since Trini had to work herself up to even start going out to these gatherings in the first place, she needs extra time to recover in her own personal space.
Except she’s also a goddamn sucker when it comes to Kimberly Ann Hart and she can never say no, so when that beautiful face illuminates on the caller ID of Trini’s cellphone, she’s already prepping an appropriate outfit for the night. 
Tonight is a party like any other night - at least that’s what Trini thought before any of the crazy events unfolded.
She’s partnered up with Kimberly playing beer pong against Zack and Tommy who both claim to be the undisputed kings of the table. Seeing as how they defeated a majority of the people there already it would seem to be true, however Kimberly had dragged Trini by the arm and demanded that they “put them in their place” and thus began the war.
So here they are now, one cup left on each side and a burning desire to dethrone the boys. 
Trini’s face feels hot as hell because she’s already taken a few shots of who knows what when she entered the house. Zack had practically shoved the mystery drinks into her’s and Kimberly’s faces demanding that it was the entrance fee to Jason’s awesome “my-dad-is-out-of-the-state-for-the-weekend” party. 
They had clinked their shot glasses and downed them in one go, the liquid burning all the way down and settling in a pool of warmth at the pit of her stomach. It was either cheap vodka or that bottom shelf tequila you find in a plastic bottle, but regardless it was one hell of a way to start their night, that’s for sure.
Tongue sticking out and eyes squinting in concentration, Kimberly chucks her ping pong ball with all the accuracy of a blind senior citizen and it hits Tommy square in the face.
Laughter spills from Tommy’s mouth as he rubs his nose amusingly. “Good aim there, Hart. Keep it up!”
“Shut your face kermit the frog, I kn-know, I know how to. I know how to throw.” The words stumble out ungracefully as Kimberly’s knuckles whiten from gripping the table to keep the world from spinning out of control. She points a finger at him and grins suggestively. “I can– I know how to handle balls–”
“Oookay Kim, we don’t doubt that.” Trini’s barely containing her laughter as she pulls the taller intoxicated girl into a tight hug in order to cover her mouth with one hand and prevent any more inappropriate jokes from escaping. 
She squirms beneath Trini’s vice-like grip, words muffled beneath the palm of her hand, and every struggle brings more and more giggles out of the both of them. Trini’s heart is beating wildly out of control but she blames it on the alcohol. It’s not the fact that her skin is touching Kimberly’s because they’re both wearing tank tops, and it’s definitely not the fact that she’s trying her damndest to suppress the more-than-platonic feelings she carries for her best friend.
Keep it together Trini.
She reminds herself to not get too comfortable or let her guard down because who knows what she might say or do, but a few shots in with a couple beers to boot is making it severely harder to focus. 
“Any day now ladies!” 
Zack’s voice cuts through the ambient noise and after Kimberly calms down, Trini lowers her hand and readies her own ping pong ball. 
She’s staring at the cup intently, almost as if suffering from tunnel vision, but she can’t seem to see straight. Her eyes blink rapidly over and over and over and it’s like the cup is sliding around, mocking her with its fickle nature. 
“What’s the matter short stack?” Tommy taunts from the other end of the table. “Need a booster seat to see the cup?”
The boys break out into another fit of hysterics and a low growl rumbles from deep within Trini’s throat. She’s one second away from just throwing the ball and intentionally pegging the dude in the eye when Kimberly leans in close and whispers for only Trini to hear.
“Y’know,” she starts quietly while wiggling her fingers in front of Trini’s face, “’s not just balls I can handle; you can ask Amanda.”
Kimberly giggles like it’s not even a big deal as if she didn’t just reveal a very crucial and life-changing piece of information to Trini. She’s grinning like an idiot but Trini’s eyes widen like she’s seen a ghost and her mouth hangs agape in shock.  
“Y-you’re - you’re…?” 
“Yyyyep,” she draws out the word and pops the “P” at the end for added dramatic effect.
“Why haven’t you told me?!” 
“You never asked.”
Oh for fuck’s sake Trini screams in her head. That’s the oldest line in the damn book and she’s pulling it now? On her? With that topic?
“I’m literally getting sober over here.” Zack flicks a Cheeto at Trini’s face and she nearly scowls at him in a fit of rage for unwittingly interrupting their moment. 
She throws the ping pong ball like a laser and to everyone’s surprise, it actually sinks directly into the cup with a satisfying plunk. Both boys’ expressions mutate into a comical mixture of mortification and disbelief, but the proof is hard to deny. 
“Rebuttal!” Tommy shouts in denial but both he and Zack miss their final throws and Kimberly bursts into cheers.
She engulfs Trini with her arms, jumping up and down in an exuberant, crushing hug before planting a kiss on her cheek, clearly swept up with victorious elation.
“We won!”
Trini’s skin burns with the leftover impression of Kimberly’s lips and for once she’s glad that everyone’s too drunk to be aware of anything, because her face is as red as the cups surrounding them and she’s shaking from head to toe. 
“No, but really,” Kimberly mumbles in Trini’s ear, her breath tickling her skin and sending electric shivers down her spine, “you should ask Amanda because this one time when we were in a supply closet near the football field, which you know it’s like, really, really cramped in there, but we made it work and like this spider got all up in our business and, and–”
“I’m gonna stop you right there, Princess.” Trini can’t decide whether she’s jealous or amused, but either way she really doesn’t want to hear the end of that story - or any stories for that matter involving her and Amanda.
Okay yeah, definitely jealous.
“Let’s get you some water, yeah?” She starts towards the kitchen, pushing past the throng of strangers and vague acquaintances alike, when she feels Kimberly’s fingers lace in her own causing Trini’s pulse to race like stampeding wildebeests. 
They’re holding hands. 
It’s such a childish action to most, but it has always meant so much more to Trini. Growing up and being so conscious of her actions around other girls made her put that much more emphasis on the simple gesture of friendship because to her, it didn’t always mean just that.
So this is just like in Trini’s dreams except with a lot more sweaty strangers and oppressive, muggy heat and too much alcohol coursing through their bodies. 
Alright, so maybe not exactly like Trini’s dreams, but eh, close enough.
No, no, no, this is stupid, Trini tells herself as they weave in between bodies occupying the hallways, we’re just holding hands. This may not mean a thing to her.
Or it could mean a thing.
Trini doesn’t want to get her hopes up.
They reach the fridge and she ignores the “DO NOT OPEN” sign, yanking on the handle and snagging a bottle of water from the side panel. The sign is mainly for guests, but all the Rangers’ houses are like their second - or fifth - home away from home so she knows Jason won’t mind.
The two of them snake their way back to the living room and spot an empty La-Z-Boy armchair. It’s upholstered with a worn brown textile fabric and even though it’s large, it’s not big enough for the both of them, except Kimberly doesn’t seem to mind. She bolts ahead of Trini and ends up dragging her to the chair before sinking down onto the padded seat and yanking Trini down onto her lap.
Seriously, thank god everyone is too drunk, because Trini’s straddling Kimberly’s waist and the chair is rocking back and forth like a fucking kiddy ride, but they’re too wrapped up in the moment to care. Her arms are linked around the small of Trini’s back and there’s a lopsided grin painted on her face as if they’re the only ones in the room.
“You have beautiful eyes,” she says and Trini’s heart nearly goes into cardiac arrest. “Like, insanely beautiful. Has anyone told you that? Because I think you need to hear it. All the time. Like right now. Because I think they’re beautiful.”
Trini chokes out a chuckle and thinks that she’s the one who needs the water now, but she maintains eye contact with Kimberly and steadily starts to gravitate towards her as if an unseen force is pulling her in. 
“You’re one to talk, Princess.” 
“Me? Naw, no way,” she shakes her head in disagreement, “I think brown eyes are boring.”
“Says you,” Trini retorts as Kimberly’s face grows closer and closer. “I think they’re complex and rich and it’s only once you get near can you see the elegance of their intricacies.”
“And I think you’re full of shit. Everybody loves blue eyes.”
“Not me,” Trini breathes, “I think brown eyes are pretty. In fact, I love yours the best.”
The corners of Kimberly’s lips twitch and her smile falters ever so slightly. It’s a minute shift that Trini catches because she knows all of her expressions by heart - she’s studied them in her dreams and witnessed them in action and she knows when the chip in Kimberly’s facade cracks open just a little bit more.
“I think you should be my girlfriend.”
The words slip out of Kimberly’s mouth without hesitation and Trini wonders how long she’s wanted to say that, because Trini knows how long she’s been wanting to do this.
She closes the gap in an instant and crushes Kimberly’s lips with her own. It’s heated and fast and just a little bit sloppy, but it’s also pure and sincere and filled with the unrestrained emotions overflowing between them. It’s everything Trini’s wanted for longer than she can remember and god does it feel so good. 
Kimberly’s pulling her in closer until their bodies are practically beating as one in a single unified symphony of desire and Trini can’t even breathe anymore. She inhales and it’s nothing but Kimberly Kimberly Kimberly.
The way her tongue drags across her lower lip before biting down and tugging lightly drives Trini insane because it’s coupled with her tiny whimpers that turn into breathy moans and the auditory overload becomes almost too much to bear. 
Trini can feel the blood pounding in her ears and she can’t tell if it’s from the alcohol or not, but then she remembers oh yeah, alcohol.
It takes all of her willpower to withdraw because this is literally one part of many of her dreams, but this isn’t right - they can’t be doing this, not under these circumstances. 
Her lips leave Kimberly’s, their chests heaving in and out feverishly, desperate for air after having breathed in nothing but each other. Trini rests her forehead against Kimberly’s because she still doesn’t want the dream to end, but she has to know for sure.
“Promise me we’ll talk about this tomorrow.”
Kimberly’s head nods up and down, swallowing thickly in the process. “Y-yeah. Promise.”
The next morning, Jason’s house looks like Rita’s attack 2.0, with bottles and cups littering the counters and floors and various party snacks scattered about in crushed piles like shattered glass. 
Jason and Billy are lying diagonally on top of the covers of his bed, sleeping soundly after the night of outrageous party games. 
Zack is hanging off of a couch, one arm dragging on the floor along with one of his legs as light snores drift peacefully from his nose.
Tommy’s sprawled on the carpet with a bunch of dicks drawn all over him. Nobody knows when the pen came out, but after he knocked out around 2 a.m. he became fair game for the rest of the Rangers to go to town on. There’s one with a cape, flying across his leg like a superhero. Billy’s happy with how it turned out, but if anyone asks, it was all Jason’s doing.
With the chair in recliner mode, the girls had ended up falling asleep in each other’s arms, comfortable and warm in their cozy embrace. The sun peeks in through the blinds and rouses Trini from her slumber first, her brow scrunching before her eyes slowly part open from the uninvited morning light.
Her head shifts and she studies Kimberly’s face. She takes in every detail. From the curve of her jaw to the outline of her nose down to the tiny mole near her lips. Everything is uniquely her and the vision of her beauty is forever burned in Trini’s mind like a work of art.
She doesn’t want this moment to end, but the sun reaches her face and Kimberly drowsily stirs. Groaning in protest, she curls deeper into Trini’s body and Trini can’t help but smile.
“Good morning, Sleeping Beauty. How you feeling?”
“Your voice is too loud and my head hurts like hell.”
“Well, you did have one crazy night after all.”
Kimberly rolls back over and gazes up at Trini. With the sunlight dancing in her eyes like a kaleidoscope of shifting shades of brown, Kimberly looks nothing short of stunning, but there’s more beyond the infinite details on the mere surface. Her expression is pensive and reserved, but she doesn’t look away.
“I remember what I said last night.”
Trini gulps. “…And?”
This is it.
This is where she gets rejected by her friend, where she’s told to her face that it was just a fun night but nothing more and that it was all just the alcohol doing the talking. That’s just one of the scenarios that sometimes plays out in one of her nightmares. Those are always the worst ones that leave her waking up in a cold sweat and with fear in her heart.
Except this isn’t a nightmare - it’s real life - or at least Trini tells herself that because Kimberly’s kissing her again and it feels absolutely surreal.
I’m kissing Kimberly Hart. I’m not dreaming.
If it’s not a dream then surely she’s died and gone to heaven. Her lips are even softer than she remembers - how is that possible? - and it leaves Trini wanting more when Kimberly pauses momentarily.
“That answer it for you?”
The corners of Trini’s mouth tug up into a grin and she shrugs. “I dunno, wasn’t really clear. I think you should do it again.”
Kimberly’s sweet laughter rings in the air before their lips find each other once more in a genuine kiss that leaves Trini breathless.

I’m Here Sam (Wendigo- S1, Ep2, Pt 1)
Supernatural Season 1 Episode 2 Part 1 Warnings: None. Words: 3,303
Masterlist
The sun was shining, there wasn’t any clouds covering the star. Birds tweeted to one another and squirrels scurried across the grass and into the trees. You leaned against the Impala with Dean, your arms were crossed and Dean’s hands were in his jean pockets. The service for the funeral ended a few days ago, but Sam wanted to say one last goodbye. He looks down at the gravestone, clutching the flowers in his hands before he took a deep, shuddering breath before he finally began to say something. “I, uh…” Sam let out a laugh despite the situation he was in, he was standing at his girlfriend's grave and somehow he found dark humor in it. The grave should’ve been his, he so badly wanted to switch places with her, she didn’t deserve to get dragged into this mess. Sam looks at the picture of her set into the gravestone, he quickly looked away and choked back a sob that would’ve escaped his mouth if he didn’t stop it. “Jess...oh God…” He said, while taking a step forward. He took a deep breath and kneeled. “I should have protected you. I should have told you the truth.” He leaned the flowers against the cross on the headstone, suddenly an arm shoots up from the grave and wraps a hand around Sam’s wrist. *** “Sam?” You say, watching as his eyelids twitch before he takes a deep breath and his eyes snap open. You frown at him as he looked around quickly before relaxing a bit in the seat. “You okay?” Dean asks, glancing at his brother in concern before returning to the the road. Sam glances at him then you before he looks out the passenger window. “Yeah, I’m fine.” He said, Dean nods while the frown on your face stays. You could tell just by one look at the younger brother that he was indeed not fine. You lean back against the seat and scoff at the man’s answer. “You had another nightmare.” You say, he’s been having them since the night Jessica died. Sam doesn’t say anything, he just continues to stare out the window at the passing scenery. “You wanna drive for a while?” Dean asks, glancing over at his brother. Sam laughs at his brother’s question. “Dean, your whole life you never once asked me that.” He replies. You roll your eyes and lean over the front seat to join the conversation face to face. “So?” You say, catching the young brother’s attention. “Take the opportunity, Dean has never offered to me to drive and I’ve been on many hunting trips with him, he refuses to let me take the wheel.” “Look, guys, I know you're worried about me.” Sam says, turning his body to look at the two of you. “I get it, and thank you, but I'm perfectly okay.” You roll your eyes and lean back against the seat while Dean hums a reply. “Sammy” You say, he turned back into the proper seating position and grabs the map out of the glove box. “Just so you know...Dean and I are here if you need to talk.” He didn’t reply but instead asked a question. “Where are we?” “We are just outside of Grand Junction.” Dean replies, staring out at the road. Sam folds the map. “You know what?” Sam says, you look away from the window and to the side of his face. “Maybe we shouldn't have left Stanford so soon.” You give him a pitying look. “Sam, sweetie…” You trail off. “We dug around there for a week. We came up with nothing. If you wanna find the thing that killed Jessica—” Dean says but get’s cut off by his brother. “We gotta find Dad first.” Sam finishes his brother’s sentence as he put away the map. “Dad disappearing and this thing showing up again after twenty years, it's no coincidence.” Dean says, you nod your head in agreement. “John” You say “he’ll have answers. He'll know what to do.” You reassure the young Winchester with a smile. “It's weird.” Sam says, shaking his head slightly. “These coordinates he left us...This Blackwater Ridge..” “What about it?” His brother asked, you look at Sam as you remembered the map you looked at earlier. “Trees.” You say, catching the brother’s attention. Dean raises an eyebrow at your unfinished statement. “There’s nothing there, just...woods….So, why is your dad sending us to the middle of nowhere?” You look out the window as you passed a National Forest sign. Dean and Sam exchange a curious look for what’s to come. *** You exit the Impala and stretch from sitting too long in a small area, Dean watches you as your shirt raised slightly above your waist showing off some of your stomach until your arms lowered to your sides. He exited the car after his brother and locked it behind him. The three of you walk inside the Rangers Station, it was a small building. Sam and you eyed the map and took in much detail as you could while Dean stared at a picture of a bear. “It's cut off by these canyons here, rough terrain, dense forest, abandoned silver and gold mines all over the place.” Sam comments on the map, you nod before turning around at Dean’s voice. “Dude, check out the size of this freaking bear.” Sam and you walk to Dean and stare at the photo. It was a pretty good sized bear. “And a dozen or more grizzlies in the area. It's no nature hike, that's for sure.” Sam says, you tore your eyes away from the picture at the sound of an unknown male’s voice. “You boys aren't planning on going out near Blackwater Ridge by any chance?” His eyes land on you, hidden between the two men that are like giants compared to your height. “And ladies.” he adds before his eyes return to the two men. “Oh, no, sir” Sam says “we're environmental study majors from UC Boulder, just working on a paper.” You nod along to the fabricated story with a smile on your face. Sam laughs a little and Dean raises his fist with a grin to make it seem more believable. “Recycle, man.” Dean says, the Ranger frowns and narrows his eyes at the three of you. “Bull.” He says, your smile turned into a frown at his statement while Sam’s eyes flick to you and Dean before his eyes return to the man before him. “You're friends with that Haley girl, right?” You laugh like he actually figured out why the three of you were here for. “Yeah” You give the man a smile as your eyes fall to his name tag before you looked at the man in the eyes. “Ranger Wilkinson.” “Well I will tell you exactly what we told her. Her brother filled out a backcountry permit saying he wouldn't be back from Blackwater until the twenty-fourth, so it's not exactly a missing persons now, is it?” You and Dean shake your heads. “You tell that girl to quit worrying, I'm sure her brother's just fine.” “We will. Well that Haley girl's quite a pistol, huh?” Dean asks the man, a smile on his face like he’s talking to an old friend. “That is putting it mildly.” “Actually you know what would help is if I could show her a copy of that backcountry permit. You know, so she could see her brother's return date.” The Ranger eyes the three of you with a suspicious gaze before you gave the man a reassuring smile. “We don’t want our friend worrying.” You say. *** Dean held the copy of the receipt with the family's address while laughing, you roll your eyes as the three of you walked towards the Impala. “What, are you cruising for a hookup or something?” Sam asks his brother, you frown at his question. “What do you mean?” You ask in confusion. “The coordinates point to Blackwater Ridge, so what are we waiting for? Let's just go find Dad. I mean, why even talk to this girl?” You look at Dean, he stood next to you. His hand hovering with the keys about to unlock the car. “I don't know, maybe we should know what we're walking into before we actually walk into it?” Dean replies before furrowing his eyebrows. “Since when are you all shoot first ask questions later, anyway?” “Since now.” Sam replies as he enters the car and shuts the door behind him. You look at Dean with raised eyebrows before the two of you enter the car. *** The boys and you stood before the Collins house, Dean rung the doorbell and not long after that a girl opened the door. “You must be Haley Collins. I'm Dean, this is Sam, and this is Y/n, we're, ah, we're rangers with the Park Service. Ranger Wilkinson sent us over. He wanted us to ask a few questions about your brother Tommy.” The girl looked at the three of you with hesitance. “Lemme see some ID.” She says, Dean pulls out an ID and holds it against the screen door. She looks at it and back at Dean who had a smile on his face. Haley opened the door. “Come on in.” She says and opened the door wider for the three of you. You gave her a smile as you passed her. “Thanks.” Dean said stopping at her question. “That yours?” You turn around and look them. “Yeah.” Dean replies, You look out the door to the Impala, a smile spreads across your face at the sight of her. “Nice car.” She comments before turning around and leading the three of you to a kitchen. A boy sat at the table with a laptop in front of him. “So” Sam starts, turning to face Haley. “if Tommy's not due back for a while, how do you know something's wrong?” You look at the female as she walks back into the room and places a bowl on the table. “He checks in every day by cell. He emails, photos, stupid little videos—we haven't heard anything in over three days now.” “Well, maybe he can't get cell reception.” Sam offered an excuse. “He's got a satellite phone, too.” “Could it be he's just having fun and forgot to check in?” Dean asked, the boy at the table shook his head. “He wouldn't do that.” He said, you and Dean eyed the boy before you looked back at Haley. “Our parents are gone. It's just my two brothers and me. We all keep pretty close tabs on each other.” Haley said, she crossed her arms and looked at the three of you. “Hey, so can I see the pictures he sent you?” You ask, Haley nods and she walks over to the laptop and pulled up a few images. “That’s Tommy.” She says, as Sam takes a look himself. Haley clicked a couple of times before another picture comes up and then the still frame opening the video. “Hey Haley, day six, we're still out near Blackwater Ridge. We're fine, keeping safe, so don't worry, okay? Talk to you tomorrow.” Tommy says before it ended. You narrow your eyes at the flicker of a shadow in the background. “Well, we'll find your brother. We're heading out to Blackwater Ridge first thing.” Dean says, Haley looks at him and crosses her arms over her chest. “Then maybe I'll see you there. Look, I can't sit around here anymore. So I hired a guy. I'm heading out in the morning, and I'm gonna find Tommy myself.” She say’s, you turn around to look at her before your eyes landed on Dean. “I think I know how you feel.” Dean says as Sam looks at Haley. “Hey, do you mind forwarding these to me?” Sam asks, Haley shrugs. “Sure.” *** Later that night, the three of you were in a bar, sitting at a table. You watched a crowd of people swarm around a pool table and begin to play a game. Men cheered near the tv’s above the counter at the bar, it was some football game going on. “So, Blackwater Ridge doesn't get a lot of traffic. Local campers, mostly. But still, this past April, two hikers went missing out there. They were never found.” Sam says, you look over at the man as he opened up John’s journal. “Any before that?” Dean asks, he watches as a waiter carrying a tray walks by. He turns slightly in his seat to check out her body. You roll your eyes and lightly punch his shoulder to catch his attention. Sam hands a newspaper article to his brother. “Yeah, in 1982, eight different people all vanished in the same year. Authorities said it was a grizzly attack.” You already read the article and knew everything about it. Eight hikers vanish in Lost Creek Area, the same area Tommy was camping at with his friends. Sam pulls out his laptop from the bag hanging on the back of his chair. “And again in 1959 and again before that in 1936.” He opens the computer and turns it towards Dean to show him a video. You were the one to edit the video to slow it down. “Every twenty-three years, just like clockwork. Okay. Watch this. Here's a clincher. I downloaded that guy Tommy's video to the laptop. Check this out.” He clicks the arrow button to show each frame before a shadow crosses the screen. “Do it again.” Dean said, leaning forward in his seat. His brother repeats his actions. “That's three frames. That's a fraction of a second. Whatever that thing is, it can move.” You say, leaning back in your seat. You look at the older brother as he hits Sam on the shoulder causing him to look up from the laptop. “Told you something weird was going on.” Dean said with a grin on his face, you roll your eyes. “Yeah, totally.” You say, Sam closes the laptop and puts it back into his bag. “I got one more thing.” Sam said, making the two of you look at the young man.  You raise an eyebrow. “In 'fifty-nine one camper survived this supposed grizzly attack. Just a kid. Barely crawled out of the woods alive.” He said, you bite your cheek as you took this information in. “So, is there a name?” You ask Sam, he looks at you and nods. *** “Look, ranger, I don't know why you're asking me about this. It's public record. I was a kid. My parents got mauled by a—” Mr. Shaw starts but gets cut off by Sam. “Grizzly? That's what attacked them?” The old man takes a puff of his cigarette before pulling it out of his mouth and nodded. “The other people that went missing that year, those bear attacks too?” You ask “What about all the people that went missing this year? Same thing? We knew what we were dealing with, we might be able to stop it.” You say, Mr. Shaw looks between the three of you and gently shakes his head. “I seriously doubt that. Anyways, I don't see what difference it would make.” He says while sitting down. “You wouldn't believe me. Nobody ever did.” Sam sat down across from the old man, and very gently he asks “Mr. Shaw, what did you see?” The old man looks away from Sam. “Nothing. It moved too fast to see. It hid too well. I heard it, though. A roar. Like...no man or animal I ever heard.” You press your lips together. “It came at night?” You ask, sitting down on the couch next to Dean. Mr. Shaw nods. “Got inside your tent?” “It got inside our cabin. I was sleeping in front of the fireplace when it came in. It didn't smash a window or break the door. It unlocked it. Do you know of a bear that could do something like that? I didn't even wake up till I heard my parents screaming.” “It killed them?” Sam asks. “Dragged them off into the night.” Mr. Shaw says and leaned forward while shaking his head. “Why it left me alive...been asking myself that ever since.” He paused, a bit hesitantly he reached to the collar of his shirt and pulled it down. ‘Did leave me this, though.” You eyed the gruesome scars on his skin, three long claw marks stretched across his chest. “There's something evil in those woods. It was some sort of a demon.” You looked at the boys, whatever was in those woods was something that wanted this man to tell others that it was not a force to be reckoned with. *** Dean and Sam walked ahead of you through the length of the corridor to the motel room. You trailed behind them, listening to their conversation. “Spirits and demons don't have to unlock doors. If they want inside, they just go through the walls.” Dean says. “So it's probably something else, something corporeal.” “Corporeal? Excuse me, professor.” You roll your eyes at Dean’s comment. What an ass. “Shut up. So what do you think?” Sam replied, irritation clear in his voice. “The claws, the speed that it moves...could be a skinwalker, maybe a black dog. Whatever we're talking about, we're talking about a creature, and it's corporeal. Which means we can kill it.” You say, the boy’s turn around to look at you, due to being so deep into their conversation they forgot about you. A smile spread across your face. “Hello boys, your one and only is still here.” *** Dean opens the trunk of the Impala, then the weapons trunk before propping it open with a shotgun, you lean against the side of the car as Sam looks into the trunk. “We cannot let that Haley girl go out there.” Sam said stating the obvious, you wrap your arms around yourself to keep warm from the November breeze. “Oh yeah? What are we gonna tell her? That she can't go into the woods because of a big scary monster?” Dean replies, he moves around a few weapons before looking at Sam when he answered. “Yeah.” “Her brother's missing, Sam. She's not gonna just sit this out. Now we go with her, we protect her, and we keep our eyes peeled for our fuzzy predator friend.” Dean picks up a duffel bag, you grab your bag. “Finding Dad's not enough?” Sam asks while slamming the weapon’s trunk closed and then the car’s. “Now we gotta babysit too?” Dean stares at Sam, not saying anything. You pressed your lips together. Sam was angry, he didn’t know how to deal with Jessica’s death and he was taking it out on his brother by lashing out at him. “What?” You glare at Dean, warning him to not say anything to make Sam more angry. “Nothing.” Dean replies before tossing the duffle bag to him and walking towards the motel. Sam and you stare at the older brother’s back until he disappears through the door. You look at Sam and gave him a soft smile, he needed some reassurance that somebody was there for him. “Deep breaths, Sam.” You say, pulling your bag strap over your shoulder. “I’m here if you need to talk about anything.” “There’s nothing to talk about.” He said, you stare at him, the smile never leaving your face. You reach out and pat his back before he took a step away. He didn't need any contact right now, he just wanted to be alone and you understood that. You were the same for the first few months after your parents died. “I’ll be here.” You say to him before walking away and heading to your motel room next to the brothers.

power rangers spoilers under the cut
like.. a few major ones. theyre detailed, i tried to list out possible trigger warnings (bolded) but if you need a specific one message me! proceed with caution :)
it was honestly really funny, there was a lot of wit and sarcasm in many of the jokes and i was constantly laughing. and while there was a more serious vibe with the movie than with what i remember of the show, there were quite a few lighthearted, very sweet moments that made the theater ‘aww’ (the scenes of jake and his mom and how he cared for her were some of the sweetest they made my heart hurt)
some of the dialogue wasnt that great, there were some plot holes that i noticed throughout the movie, and some of the acting wasnt as good as it couldve been, but it was a good movie, it was a good adaptation of the show and a good start to what im guessing is a series? there’s a credit scene where they kinda introduce the green ranger (which the girl next to me was freaking out about it was great)  
the evil witch lady was kinda underwhelming? i wasnt really scared of her, i could tell that she would fuck shit up if she wasnt stopped but the portrayal wasnt really what i expected it to be, which is fine things dont have to be perfect all around, but i hope they get some better, more experienced actors to play the villains next time. the witch’s monster that she creates was kinda scary, there were some intense scenes with the monster and the five that racked up my anxiety lol
i wasnt a devout show watcher, ive seen a few episodes here and there as a kid, but some people have been commenting on the tv/movie references and inside jokes that were in this movie. there were some nostalgic scenes that i remember, “its morphin time!” and the “go go power rangers!” song definitely made me feel like a giddy little kid. this was a revamp but they didnt forget their origin story, they didnt forget where they came from lol
billy (blue) fucking stole the show. he was absolutely amazing. im not autistic, but i follow a few people who are and who talk about it concerning themselves and characters they see as being on the spectrum. so i noticed a few aspects of billy’s character which coincided with what ive read like when jason scott (red) touched him with no warning or consent he asks him to stop, he is constantly building things his whole basement/room is covered in tools and equipment and a big work table, which is what came to my mind as his special interest
when he got excited there was continuity of him clapping his hands and sort of bouncing on his feet, and the most blatant aspect of all; billy confessed to jason that he was on the spectrum, jason didnt seem to understand and made a little joke, and billy went on to say that his brain worked differently than jason’s, that he couldnt understand sarcasm or some humor but that he remembered everything, like /everything/. in the movie he was by far the best developed character in my opinion, it felt like RJ Cyler did a lot of research and listening to build his character to be the best representation that he could make him. (i dont know if this has anything to do with autism or if its just a cute thing billy does, but he cant swear. like something surprised him and he yelled ‘motherf- ah just mother is good’ like he couldnt finish the word. idk i just liked that part of his character)
t warning: okay so there is one scene that could be triggering for some people, so major spoiler here. the villain ends up killing billy ¾ through the movie, the rangers take him back to the main ship to ask their mentor person what to do and if theres any way to save him, but eventually the mentor brings him back to life. i felt slightly uncomfortable during that scene because they killed off their only black and autistic character. i still dont know how to feel about it until i hear from actual black/autistic people but i wanted y’all to know, if seeing that could harm you or trigger you. if you want to avoid seeing that happen to billy, it happens when the five are captured at the docks and its drawn out for a few minutes, i cant remember how many. if someone could accompany you, they could stay in the theater and text or come get you when the scene is over.
OH and something i noticed after the emotional scene mentioned above, billy was being hugged and he was hugging back, but jason walked up to him and kept his distance, letting billy initiate the hug if thats what he wanted to do. jason heard billy’s uncomfortableness in being touch and remembered, and let him have his space and freedom to decide on a hug or not. theyre my new brotp and I LOVE THEM
keep in mind that i dont know everything, i dont have autism so some things most likely shot over my head and didnt register, so im sorry if it did and if what ive told you has been incorrect. you are totally free to correct me if i have been, but i felt like billy was (mostly) treated with care and respect.
so admittedly the gay character reveal was kinda small, i wouldve definitely liked if it was bigger but keeping in mind what the director said in one of his interviews is important.
“For Trini, really she’s questioning a lot about who she is. She hasn’t fully figured it out yet. I think what’s great about that scene and what the scene propels for the rest of the movie is, ‘That’s OK.’ The movie is saying, ‘That’s OK,’ and all of the kids have to own who they are and find their tribe.” xxx
The way it’s revealed sounded as if Trini (yellow) was fresh into figuring out who she is, what her sexuality is, where she fits in society. the five were revealing secrets about one another to get to know each other better and she tells them that she and her family are never in town for long, and she likes it like that because its easier to not have to constantly get to know people, to show them your vulnerable side.
zack (black) made a little joke about ‘boyfriend problems’ which her subtle face expressions rejected, to which he asks ‘girlfriend problems?’ and she seemed unsure. (theres no negative reactions from the others, it does seem to portray the idea that ‘Thats OK’, that her potentially having girlfriend problems is totally okay to the other characters) im not positive in what expression she was conveying, maybe the character wasnt totally sure of her answer herself, but i remember being that way too.
i always asked myself if wondering if i was bisexual was actually just me wanting to fit in with my friends, or if i was trying to get attention from some unknown faceless person. i kept quiet about my thoughts for quite some time, i didnt want to blurt it out while still feeling wildly unconfident about my answer, in case i /was/ vying for attention (i wasnt). so maybe this representation isnt what my present day mostly-out self wouldve liked, but to my past questioning and confused “straight” self, i wouldve related to that uncertainty. i wouldve seen myself in Trini and wouldve cried tbh. if the sequels actually happen (theres a plan for five more movies to be made?? i hope it happens) then i really do hope that we see her sexuality expanded upon as she becomes more comfortable with herself.
(and maybe it was just me but did Trini seem like she had the hots for Kimberly (pink)? id have to watch it again bc a lot of information at one time kinda shocks my brain into a stupor and the details get foggy)
t warning: theres a car crash scene in the very beginning of the movie and one sorta 2/4 of the way where theyre escaping the mining area and connect with a train. after the second crash jason throws up but there isnt any visual, only audio. i cant think of anything else in the movie, so if any of you need to avoid or know about those, i hope this helps.
so these are my thoughts and opinions! if you disagree i totally understand but dont be a jerk about it, you respect me I’ll respect you. i hope y’all have enjoyed my long ass post and if you see the movie i hope you enjoy it!

Now that they've got it settled whose I be,
I'm going to tell them something they won't like:
They've got it settled wrong, and I can prove it.
Flattered I must be to have two towns fighting
To make a present of me to each other.
They don't dispose me, either one of them,
To spare them any trouble. Double trouble's
Always the witch's motto anyway.
I'll double theirs for both of them-you watch me.
They'll find they've got the whole thing to do over,
That is, if facts is what they want to go by.
They set a lot (now don't they?) by a record
Of Arthur Amy's having once been up
For Hog Reeve in March Meeting here in Warren.
I could have told them any time this twelvemonth
The Arthur Amy I was married to
Couldn't have been the one they say was up
In Warren at March Meeting, for the reason
He wa'n't but fifteen at the time they say.
The Arthur Amy I was married to
Voted the only times he ever voted,
Which wasn't many, in the town of Wentworth.
One of the times was when 'twas in the warrant
To see if the town wanted to take over
The tote road to our clearing where we lived.
I'll tell you who'd remember-Heman Lapish.
Their Arthur Amy was the father of mine.
So now they've dragged it through the law courts once
I guess they'd better drag it through again.
Wentworth and Warren's both good towns to live in,
Only I happen to prefer to live
In Wentworth from now on; and when all's said,
Right's right, and the temptation to do right
When I can hurt someone by doing it
Has always been too much for me, it has.
I know of some folks that'd be set up
At having in their town a noted witch:
But most would have to think of the expense
That even I would be. They ought to know
That as a witch I'd often milk a bat
And that'd be enough to last for days.
It'd make my position stronger, think,
If I was to consent to give some sign
To make it surer that I was a witch?
It wa'n't no sign, I s'pose, when Mallice Huse
Said that I took him out in his old age
And rode all over everything on him
Until I'd bad him worn to skin and bones
And if I'd left him bitched unblanketed
In front of one Town Hall, I'd left him hitched
front of every one in Grafton County.
Some cried shame on me not to blanket him,
The poor old man. It would have been all right
If someone hadn't said to gnaw the posts
He stood beside and leave his trademark on them,
So they could recognize them. Not a post
That they could hear tell of was scarified.
They made him keep on gnawing till he whined.
Then that same smarty someone said to look­
He'd bet Huse was a cribber and bad gnawed
The crib he slept in-and as sure's you're born
They found he'd gnawed the four posts of his bed,
All four of them to splinters. What did that prove?
Not that he hadn't gnawed the hitching posts
He said he had, besides. Because a horse
Gnaws in the stable ain't no proof to me
He don't gnaw trees and posts and fences too.
But everybody took it for a proof.
I was a strapping girl of twenty then.
The smarty someone who spoiled everything
Was Arthur Amy. You know who he was.
That was the way he started courting me.
He never said much after we were married,
But I mistrusted be was none too proud
Of having interfered in the Huse business.
I guess be found he got more out of me
By having me a witch. Or something happened
To turn him round. He got to saying things
To undo what he'd done and make it right,
Like, "No, she ain't come back from kiting yet.
Last night was one of her nights out. She's kiting.
She thinks when the wind makes a night of it
She might as well herself." But he liked best
To let on he was plagued to death with me:
If anyone had seen me coming home
Over the ridgepole, ' stride of a broomstick,
As often as he had in the tail of the night,
He guessed they'd know what he had to put up with.
Well, I showed Arthur Amy signs enough
Off from the house as far as we could keep
And from barn smells you can't wash out of plowed ground
With all the rain and snow of seven years;
And I don't mean just skulls of Rogers' Rangers
On Moosilauke, but woman signs to man,
Only bewitched so I would last him longer.
Up where the trees grow short, the mosses tall,
I made him gather me wet snowberries
On slippery rocks beside a waterfall.
I made him do it for me in the dark.
And he liked everything I made him do.
I hope if he is where he sees me now
He's so far off be can't see what I've come to.
You can come down from everything to nothing.
All is, if I'd a-known when I was young
And full of it, that this would be the end,
It doesn't seem as if I'd had the courage
To make so free and kick up in folks' faces.
I might have, but it doesn't seem as if.

Steven Gerrard thought his Rangers side should have put MORE than six past Hibernian
& # 39; I am really disappointed that we do not score anymore & # 39 ;: Steven Gerrard felt that his Rangers side should have put more than six past Hibernian
Jermain Defoe started a jubilant week for Gers when he stopped a hat-trick at home
Sunday 6-1 win cam hot on the heels of his last sigh to Kilmarnock
Rangers boss Steven Gerrard was understandably overjoyed with his side
Alfredo Morelos climbed off the bench on Sunday to replace Jermaine Defoe
by Press Association Reporter
Published: 23:31 BST, August 11, 2019 | Updated: 23:31 BST, August 11, 2019
Steven Gerrard admitted that he was disappointed in his rampant Rangers did not hit even harder against unfortunate Hibernian.
Jermain Defoe packed in jubilant week for Gers while putting in a clinical hat trick during the 6-1 mauling of Paul Heckingbottom's men.
Coming to the heels of the last sigh from his side to Kilmarnock last Sunday and the four goals Europa League in Midweek in Denmark, boss Gerrard was understandably happy with his efforts.
Steven Gerrard admitted he was disappointed. Rangers did not give an even heavier beating
Alfredo Morelos climbed off the bench to replace Defoe and immediately found it just before Sheyi Ojo & # 39; s injury time strike – but the Ibrox manager confessed that he was greedy because he was the Light Blues completely saw dominate Hibs.
Gerrard said: & I am very satisfied. In addition to a 10-minute spell at the end of the first half, I thought we were excellent.
& # 39; We really looked dangerous. That is how I want us to always look like a threat, get people in one-to-one position, strike strikers.
& # 39; Their defense had a tough 90 minutes today and that is how it looked (for us). I am actually disappointed that we did not score anymore. Every time we went on, we looked dangerous.
Striker Jermain Defoe fired in three goals to help Rangers beat Hibernian 6-1 at Ibrox
Alfredo Morelos came off the bench to score two late goals to complete the route
I respect Hibs and Paul Heckingbottom. They are a good team, but they met Rangers today on a bad day. & # 39;
Defoe turns 37 in two months, but Gerrard hinted that he is ready to extend the stay of the former England striker in Glasgow when his 18-month Bournemouth loan expires next summer.
& # 39; I get the age comments, & # 39; said his old international colleague. & # 39; But the most important thing for me is how you feel. How old is your body?
& # 39; If you have never touched a drop of alcohol in your life and are hungry like Jermain Defoe, you never think about it.
& # 39; I don't think: & # 39; He's 36, so can't start or play two games on the road & # 39 ;. I just think I know this player, his hunger, his professionalism.
Defoe opened the score after just nine minutes by pressing a rebound to jump
]
The former England-international then hit close to his second in the near post
]
& # 39; He can score goals for Rangers for this season and, if I can predict, also next season. & # 39 ;
Hib threatened to be blown away when Gers ran out of the traps.
But after falling behind Defoe & # 39; s early double, the Easter Road side settled and got a lifeline with the senator of Scott Allan Sational assist for Daryl Horgan five minutes before half time.
However, the second booking by Sean Mackie just after the break placed the Heckingbottom team on the back foot.
The Leith boss threw the dice because he threw Florian Kamberi as a partner of Christian Doidge, but insists that his guess was not the reason his party shifted four goals in the last 16 minutes.
Hibernian gave hope when Daryl Horgan came home from Scott Allan & # 39; s pass
Sean Mackie got a yellow card after he had committed a deliberate handball
The former Leeds boss said: & # 39; You & # 39; You have to go for it, don't you? What are you going to do Let it fizz up to 2-1? That is meaningless.
& # 39; Listen, the form is not the reason we have assigned more goals. We lose the ball in crazy areas and do not defend well, those are the reasons we have assigned more.
& # 39; That is something for 10 men. The first part, on 11 v 11, is where we were the second best for long spells. We were too passive.
& # 39; I could sit here and give all credit to Rangers in the world, but I'm more worried about how we approach it. & # 39;
The race was decided when Defoe was the highest reached point to cross from Steven Davis & # 39;
to be added. Just minutes after he got off the bench, Morelos was able to finish his fourth team

Best insurance company to work for?
I live in Southern California, I have been looking for work since I moved here from France. I posted a general sales resume on careerbuilder.com and have since been spammed by insurance agencies. Some have been good companies like State Farm and Farmers. Some have been less, like Colonial Life and Axa advisers. I believe Axa wanted me for a commissioned investment broker position. I didn't pass the personality test for State Farm, but I can try again in a year. I will have a strategy and research next time. State Farm has 9 month paid training, a huge signing bonus at the end and would be an excellent opportunity but it isn't for right now. What I did learn through all of this, especially from Colonial Life is that the insurance licenses aren't that hard or expensive to get. I'm thinking of getting life, health and auto. Does any one know of companies that have non-independent, salaried agents? I would like a commission, but not the 100% commission based model of Colonial or Axa. I also don't want to cold-call or drop off 180 envelops a week like Colonial demands. I don't want to be independent for the moment, although that is possible in the future with a good company like Farmers or State Farm. Right now I could work as a salaried sales person through an independent agent or direct hire. What is the best way to get on-board?""

When going to a rental car agency such as Hertz or Avis they strongly 'encourage' you to purchase insurance. Can you get your own insurance that covers you in their cars rather than having to pay the insanely expensive insurance they offer?
How much would it cost to insure a large SUV for a 16 year old?
I have always wanted this car: http://pictures.topspeed.com/IMG/crop/200608/2006-toyota-sequoia-1_460x0w.jpg The Toyota Sequoia. I know it gets crappy gas mileage, but ive seen worse. And plus Im not gonna be driving that much either. my school is very close to me, along with all my friends houses. But how much will insurance be at your best guess? Also, if I don't blow off gas, and waster it, how much money do you think I will pay per month in California? Dont try to tell me that I am not old enough to be behind an SUV, because 1) Im going to be learning how to drive from my parents in an suv, so i will have some experience 2) my parents want me to get an SUV 3) Im not a dumb a** whos gonna go 50 mph and try to cut a corner and flip over. Bottom line is, im getting an suv and thats that.""

Who thinks GEICO is a great insurance company?
I think their ads on TV are so right - they have not only the lowest rates (at least for me), but the best customer service too. I have never filed a claim, but recently requested some insurance record from them. Even though I am not their customer anymore (currently do not own a car), they still were very helpful on the phone, sent me the requested letter immediately and even did a follow up on it. I think they are awesome. Who had similar experience with them or any other company? PS - I am not a GEICO employer :))""

""What kind of qualities should I look for when purchasing a car? ie insurance, modern elements...?""
For experienced buyers: As an entry level analyst looking to purchase a car, I was hoping to get some ideas about my first big purchase. My norm has usually been purchasing something and regretting it some time down the road ie Bought a Dell laptop, turns out it heats up a lot. Or a new smartphone (android), turns out it freezes plenty. So I want to purchase a car, and was hoping if someone who is experienced could possibly take some time off to tell me what I should look out for. I understand insurance is a *****, and even though cars are affordable on lease, the insurance will get you. My objective: Car : Lease a pre-owned or 2nd hand car, possibly 2012 or 2013 model, 4 door, sedan. Insurance : Max coverage, low payment (ideal but, shoot for the stars and....) Questions: I understand there are qualities or modern elements like lane stabilizer and effective cruise control that can reduce insurance coverage. How effective can they be? What kind of sedans have low insurance and are modernistic, such as built in navigation and those cool looking monitors? (kind of childish) Which insurance coverages are the most important, there is basic, comprehensive.... If you need additional information, I will be checking this question hourly and will be glad to provide additional information. Thanks!""

Does my mom HAVE to be on MY car insurance?
So here's the deal -- I am getting a new car soon and my mom wants me to get my own insurance so her bill doesn't go up (she normally pays $70/month, but once I was added to her policy the bill went up $85 -- and that was with just ONE car). And now that I am getting my own car, my mom knows that the insurance is going to sky rocket and that is why she wants me to have my own insurance. However -- according to all these insurance companies, my mom and I HAVE to add each other as drivers onto our policies since we live in the same household. My problem is this -- why is it that when I am getting a quote online and I add my mom as a driver (but have her EXCLUDED from the policy), the price is $1183 every 6 months, yet when I DON'T include her as a driver at all, the price drops down to $854? Do I HAVE to add my mom onto my car insurance even though she has her own policy with a different company and won't be driving my car -- ever? Seriously, the only time she will be in my car is when I am driving, and god forbid I do get into an accident, this insurance company covers myself and any relative that resides in the household. So would I REALLY have to add my mom onto my car insurance even though she won't be driving my car? I don't want to pay $400 more for someone who will never drive my car...""

My car insurance rate is ridicules. why?
Im currently insured with Geico. I got my plan back last year when i had a beater car (2001 nissan maxima). My premium was only 260 or so for the whole year, whiche came out to 40 bucks or so a month. ive since bought a new car (2013 nissan versa) and switched it with my old car. my monthly payment only went up 4 or 5 bucks as a result. This rate is fricking great and i have no problems. however, when i go to refinance (for lack of a better word) my insurance or simply shop around, for some reason the quotes they give me skyrockets my payments to 260+ a month!! the same is for other insurance providers aswell, even the insurance offered by my bank! what gives? why the huge leap? i have a clean record (no accidents ever, last speeding ticket was 4+ years ago), what was at the time, a brand new car, aswell as a better job (was working in a restaurant, now at a lawfirm). Sure, ive moved since i first got the policy, into a poorer neighboor hood, but does it really warrant a 200 dollar increase?

Here we have a new smartphone to review from Infinix Mobility – that’s Infinix Hot S3 (aka Infinix S3). It’s an entry-level smartphone with recently trending features like the fullview wider display.
It’s not a surprise that Infinix, a Hong Kong based smartphone brand owned by TRANSSION Holdings, has settled very nicely in the Pakistan market. The company started operating in the country in mid 2015 with the launch of Infinix Hot Note quickly followed Zero 2 smartphone. Since then, the company has gone through various marketing strategies to launch a variety of its mid-ranger and budget smartphones.
Even though the company has entered into local markets with physical retail store presence, it’s major sales are still done through online merchandising and it’s doing really good with it. Most recent launches from the company were – Zero 5 with 6GB RAM, and Infinix Note 4 and 4 Pro.
Let’s get to the point; today we are going to review the company’s recently launched smartphone – Infinix Hot S3, that costs PKR 19,999/-
The phone comes with 5.7-inch HD+ 18:9 full-view display, dubbed as “infinity display” and 2.5D curved glass. The smartphone features Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 Octa-core Mobile Platform along with 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage.
Infinix Hot S3 Features and Specifications
Announced March 2018 Software Android 8.0 Oreo XOS 3.0 Hummingbird Dimension 152.3 x 72.8 x 8.4mm Weight 150 grams Display 5.7-inch IPS LCD Display 1440×720 Resolution. 18:9 Infinity Display Pixel Density 285ppi Chipset Snapdragon 430 (MSM8937) CPU: 8x ARM Cortex A53 1.4GHz GPU: Adreno 505 Modem: X6 (150Mbps↓/75Mbps↑) Memory 3GB RAM 32GB Internal Storage External Memory up to 128GB Camera Rear: 13MP autofocus, dual LED flash Front: 20MP fixed-focus, dual-LED flash Battery 4000 mAh Charging 5V-2A Network 4G/LTE, 3G, 2G Connectivity Dual-SIM + MicroSD card GPS, WiFi 802.11 B/G/N, Hotspot, Bluetooth 4.0, Sensors Fingerprint Sensor Proximity Sensor Ambient Light Sensor Compass Gravity Sensor Connectivity Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi Direct Wi-Fi Hot Spot Bluetooth, Micro USB, NFC (LDN-TL10 Only) Price PKR 19,999/- ~USD 175
Positives and Negatives
Nice build Quality
Nice battery timing
Compact size
Dedicated micro SD card slot
No scratch resistance
Slow fingerprint/face ID
First thing, as always, after buying a phone is to unbox the retail packaging and see what you get inside. So here it is for you before you buy it.
Unboxing
The device: Infinix Hot S3
Micro USB cable
Travel charger (5V-2A)
Black transparent silicone cover
SIM eject tool
User guide and manual
Warranty information
Build, Design and Display
When it comes to build quality, I have witnessed Infinix making really good quality phones in the price range it’s currently serving. Likewise, the Infinix Hot S3 is no exception – it looks and feels really good in hands.
The Infinix Hot S3 features a 5.7-inch screen with 2.5D curved glass on top. There’s no mention of any scratch resistance and indeed it seems to catch the minor scratches. The phone has 18:9 resolution of 1440 by 720 pixels with the pixel density of around 285ppi while the screen-to-body ratio is around 81%. The wider aspect ratio has its own objectives to show content in more space specially the cinemascopic media. Then you have an option to stretch up and down to suit your needs while watching videos or playing games, provided the apps supports the customised displays such as YouTube can fit the 18:9 display.
  The resolution on the other hand still provides an evidence that it’s an entry-level smartphone. This large screen with 720p HD resolution is not as sharp as you would have on an FHD display. But count the pixel density as well which is just below 300 and isn’t that bad for reading content. For the price tag, it’s yet the best you can get.
When talking about the features, on the front face, the top bezel has all those standard sensors invisible to the eye, the earpiece in the middle, the front camera on one side and a soft LED flash on the other side of earpiece.
It’s a 20-megapixel camera on the front that we’ll cover later in the camera section. Also when said the standard sensors, it’s just those standard ones including ambient light and proximity sensors. No special sensors like gyroscope are there to entertain you for virtual reality content. So this could be a deal breaker for some but if you are truly looking for an entry-level smartphone for such a price, you’d already know what you’re gonna have at most.
There are no capacitive keys on the front as the standard software based in-screen navigation buttons are there for navigation. Still there’s a significant bezel right down there with absolutely nothing on it.
Power and volume buttons are on the right side as usually they are on most smartphones. The left side of the phone hosts the slot for dual-SIM cards and a micro SD card. It’s not a hybrid one but can serve with both the SIM cards and micro SD card simultaneously.
The phone has a 3.5mm audio jack on the top and all other things like micro USB port, a loudspeaker and a mouthpiece or the primary microphone for all voice stuff.
Sure the build material is plastic (mimicking metal like mostly these days) but not that plastic we have previously seen from high-end smartphone makers having generated revenues for cheap thin plastic phones for their flagship smartphones for years. This is just about time, that now there are plenty of smartphone makers in the market and they have to provide quality that is better or at least competitive.
So the build material of Infinix Hot S3 is really fine. The unit we got here for review is the Sandstone Black variant that has a matte finish and it’s really compact with a combination of rounded and chamfered edges.
Thanks to the comfortable chamfered and rounded edges, the phone is easy to grip. Handling is fine and comfortable with 150 grams of the phone’s weight and 8.4mm thickness.
On the back, the phone has a 13-megapixel camera with dual-LED flash enclosed into a spherical module raised above the surface of the panel. Visually the camera seems larger but it’s not bigger than any standard mobile camera sensor type physically. So expect the camera performance within the category or price range of phone. Some software manipulation still may differ the picture/video quality from one device to another.
Below the camera, there’s a fingerprint scanner on the rear side of the phone. That’s usually a preferred position for a fingerprint scanner for most as it’s easily reachable to your index finger. Unlike that, the fingerprint scanner on the front-below-screen position is usually awkward for your thumb to reach until you carry the phone with your fingertips on the lower part of the phone and position your thumb on the fingerprint scanner.
So my preferred place for fingerprint scanner on a smartphone is on the back when rightly placed for index finger. What’s yours and why? do tell us in the comments below.
Camera
Now that we are talking about features placed on the rear side, the camera is, for sure, the major element there. It’s 13-megapixel primary camera, even though the front camera has much more pixels than this. The main camera is actually a fully functional autofocus camera while on the front it’s a fixed-focus camera unit. Mostly that’s the case with smartphones, whether it’s an entry-level, mid-range or even a high-end phone. When it’s also an autofocus camera on the front – that’s plausible.
Interestingly, with an entry-level price tag, the phone has a featureful camera UI specially when it comes with a Pro mode. However, there is little miss-management with the UI that you have to scroll all the screens through the left to reveal the modes. How?
Well, in most user friendly scenarios two modes – the Still Photos and Video Recording are right there on the screen. You can easily switch from one to the other. The settings or features for those respective modes become available from a hamburger/gear icon on the screen. Other modes are quickly accessible from another key icon or a screen-gesture.
With this specific camera UI, everything is stacked into a slider. They in order – Modes, Video, Auto, Beauty. Can you guess what they are? OK! The camera starts with the “Auto” mode selected, that’s the still photos mode. For video recording, you perform a swipe-right gesture to activate “Video” mode. Likewise when you need to use ‘beautify’ function on still photos, you need to navigate from “Auto” to “Beauty” mode by sliding to the left. Just like that, for more modes, you will need to swipe-left through all the modes to go and find them.
Auto mode
Video mode
Beauty mode
All modes
Pro mode
Other modes are, Panorama, Night mode, Time lapse, and Professional. The pro mode is like the most vendors today have, but not as extensive as Huawei has provided in its high-end smartphones. Well that’s also true that Huawei hasn’t provided such a feature in its Y7 Prime 2018 which is exactly the same cost with pretty much similar hardware. So I’ll give Infinix Hot S3, the thumbs up for that. You can set ISO from 100 to 1550, shutter speed from 1/3000th of a second to 6 seconds. There are three focus modes – auto, macro and manual. That’s more than enough on an entry-level smartphone.
Other quick features on the camera interface are pretty much straight forward and easy to access. They automatically change based on the modes you choose. Auto still mode provides HDR, flash and filter options, while you can also switch aspect ratio right from the viewfinder that also changes the resolution for the photos. Video mode only offers to use flashlight.
Picture Quality
Daylight shots were decent as long as you see them on your screen. Color noise is controlled well but still available and can be noticed at gradient levels when viewing at 1:1 sized shots. Mostly the distinct objects come sharp with little soft edges but those soft edges becomes problem for subjects closer each other. Examples are leaves and grass, you will see that how they are smudged into each other in pictures taken with Infinix Hot S3.
Surprisingly the dynamic range is not that bad for such a price tag but still it’s out of order where HDR feature helps in a much better way. Low-light shots have nothing exceptional to tell about with more noisy and less detailed image. You can use flash on close subjects though which sometimes works fine but overexposes the subject on another time.
20-megapixel camera on the front is fixed focus but still does the purpose. That higher pixel count works well to give plenty of detail in your selfie shots. The front camera also features a portrait mode with bokeh effect. It blurs out the background to distinct you in the shot but frankly it’s not that good in quality as the subject edges sometimes mix into the background.

[slickr-flickr search=”single” photo_id=”41045089304″]
The phone can record up to 1080p video footage at 30 frames per second. We didn’t have a sample for that. The review will be updated once the footage is ready to publish.
Software – Android 8 Oreo, XOS 3.0
Now the base driver of the phone – the software. Infinix Hot S3 runs Android 8.0 Oreo with custom software skin on top – XOS 3.0 dubbed as Hummingbird. The phone may come with a previous build of Android out of the box but you it’s bound to receive the most recent update. The one we reviewed is running the March 1st security patch.
We aren’t sure if the phone will get Android 8.1 sooner or later but I believe the community is running with vast range of developers and you may get an update at least. However, for now you get the basic  Android Oreo features such as auto fill, picture-in-picture mode etc.
  XOS UI has an app drawer in vertical order but the launcher itself is customizable. You can rearrange the home screen with different icon size. The launcher also features headlines page on the home screen which can be turned on and off on your demand.
The phone’s fingerprint scanner is enough for security but it also has Face ID that works with your front camera. So in dark environments, it usually fails to identify your face but in that case it offers a bulb icon on the lock screen that turns on the flash to lighten up your face to identify. However both, the fingerprint scanner and the face identification aren’t very fast in response if compared to the Huawei’s variations.
The software offers the night light feature which reduces the blue light to prevent unexpected sleep. More than preventing a sleep, I always prefer to have it turned on because the less blue is more comfortable for me to watch on the screen.
The phone has an color LED notification light on the front top for missed calls alerts, unread messages and some more events. The feature can be turned off from the system settings if you want. The feature actually helps during the time when battery is low and you don’t want it to lose with display always turning on. Even though the display can stay asleep but for any notification to read, you have to turn it on everytime. So the notification LED has its advantage.
Battery and Performance
The core of the smartphone comes to trial and it’s Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 430 chipset with octa-core processor. All the eight cores are ARM’s Cortex A53 but four are clocked at up to 1.2GHz while the other four are clocked at up to 1.5GHz. The chip is also bundled with Adreno 505 GPU. The phone comes with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, which is really a good thing for an entry-level smartphone to fulfil today’s tasks.
Everything is perfectly fine for such a budget phone, it never ran into any issue when stayed in use. The animations were smooth to get appreciated without any lag. Some apps had lagging in long scrolls and heavy stuff in the scroll. The phone allows moderate gaming but sure not some heavy titles for long.
While benchmark scores are only to tell the numerical difference between one device to the other, it’s a good thing for users to make mind about some device’s performance. So take glimpse on a few benchmark scores.
Infinix Hot S3 – AnTuTu Scores
Infinix Hot S3 – Geekbench 4 Scores
Infinix Hot S3 – GFXBench GL Scores
Infinix Hot S3 – Basemark OS II / ES 3.1 Scores
All that performance comes above the energy from 4000 mAh battery. That’s sure a good thing to have for heavy usage of a smartphone in today’s life. With Infinix Hot S3, the battery is a remarkable part of the bundle as it keeps the phone alive all day long on one full charge. And that’s not only casual usage, it’s about some heavy usage including some gaming, photography, social networking over WiFi or 4G/LTE.
Unfortunately, on top of that large battery, you don’t get an extra glass of juice called an ultra power saving. You only get a standard power saver below 20% of battery.
Conclusion and Verdict
After every give and take, we are still talking about an entry-level smartphone. Considering the price factor, you get a very few options to compare. One such is the recently launched Huawei Y7 Prime 2018, with the exact price tag and very similar core hardware components, you get dual-camera on top of that. But as we haven’t compare the photos from these two cameras, we can’t prefer one over the other. However one thing is certain, the 4000mAh battery of Infinix Hot S3 takes the lead over Huawei’s model.
There is no objection over the usage of hardware on a device that costs only PKR 20,000 until a new brand jumps in with some better hardware in the similar price tag. That 720p display and Snapdragon 430 are sure for entry-level smartphones so be with it. If you want some better thing you need to gear up with your budget as well. Or just wait for a few more months to see if there something coming for you. For now, it is what it is. If you have been using any Infinix smartphone, you can share your thoughts as well in the comments. Or have a final look at the photo gallery of Infinix Hot S3 below.
Infinix Hot S3 Review – An entry-level packed performance Here we have a new smartphone to review from Infinix Mobility - that's Infinix Hot S3 (aka Infinix S3).

CELTIC skipper Scott Brown has warned Motherwell they need to sort out the home support before a serious incident occurs.
The Scotland international midfielder joked that he collected a £1 coin and a packet of Chewits in the midweek 1-1 draw, but maintained it is only a matter of time before a player or fan is injured by missiles being thrown from the stand.
Brown said: “You don’t hear anything about coins launched in people’s direction and trying to injure people.
“That all gets thrown under the carpet and they focus on two decisions.
“I made a pound. There was a coin, strawberry Chewits – I picked them up, too! It isn’t showing a great example, especially when there are kids there.
“If they misplace that coin and it hits a kid or someone else on the head and you don’t want that, but eventually someone will get hit.
“There was a few times it happened. It was at throw-ins and a few times with Griff taking a corner.
“It is always from that same section. You think they would eventually move those fans around to stop it happening.
“It is starting to become part and parcel of going there now. It is a great place to go and play football because the fans are on top of one another, but you can’t be launching things.
“If we do anything then we would have a bad reputation if we had to throw something back, but they can do it for 90 minutes.
“Eventually someone will get injured. Until that happens, no-one will do anything about it.”
Motherwell, as you know, last night crashed the internet when the released their statement before minutes later Grant Russell’s former employer, STV carried the story. CQN had been trying to contact Grant regarding the missive throwing and the unacceptable behaviour of the Motherwell supporters, and yeah we were at the game.
There were no broken seats in the rear of the stand and we were among the last to leave the ground as we were perched way up at the back where remarkably you struggle to see the goals below you.
Here is the Motherwell statement for those who haven’t see it yet:
A word or two about the penalties that Celtic got in the last two games. Davie Hay describes both as “soft penalties” but still penalties.
Both referees, Thomson and Collum, were correct to award them and equally both could have decided against pointing to the spot, perhaps if their position on the park was different.
For example the referee at the recent game in Dingwall failed to award a penalty kick when Callum McGregor was about to score because from the angle he saw it the ball changed direction. However it was clear that this happened as a consequence of the foul as McGregor’s foot made contact with the ball as he was falling.
It was a penalty but you could see why the referee wasn’t sure enough.
Celtic could also have had a penalty in Paris when Dembele wad bought down just before half-time.
So from four claims in recent games Celtic got two and probably should have had more.
The media on Wednesday night apparently were hysterical about the fact that Celtic had been awarded a spot kick – again! Few had seen enough of the incident to judge and to be fair the Celtic fans I spoke to at the game didn’t think it was a pen.
However Willie Collum, from his angle, was 100% sure and it turned out to be the correct decision.
So the point of the Motherwell statement is what?
They failed to appeal the red card on Sunday, the route that was open to them to make their point wasn’t taken. We know why.
And now the hacks are one by one having to eat their Wednesday words when shown the footage that clearly shows that McGregor was barged from behind by a reckless opponent who effectively threw away two points for his side and helped preserve Celtic’s unbeaten run.
Motherwell were over physical all night on Wednesday and it eventually cost them two points.
Sports Sound on BBC Scotland last night was a remarkable listen as their usual line-up of ex-Rangers players, one by one, were forced to watch the incident again and grudgingly accept that it was a penalty. The first penalty Celtic had been awarded in the league all season.
And if ex-Rangers players, who were vocal in calling out the dodgy refereeing and Celtic diving on Wednesday could now accept that Willie Collum got it right then we can pop over to, of all places, Follow Follow, the hardcore Rangers forum for a similar perspective.
They had worked themselves up into a frenzy thinking that Callum McGregor was offside, clearly oblivious to the rules of the game.
Remember this id from Follow Follow:
“Saw it on Twitter. McGregor is the last filth player to play the ball before he crosses the byline.
“He then comes back on and gets the penalty without a team mate getting a touch so he can’t be offside.
“It’s a clear penalty when you see it from the viewpoint Collum had.
“A f.king stupid barge by the Motherwell player. McGregor was heading away from goal and it was a totally needless challenge.”
I think we can rest our case.

Steven Caulker:’ I’ve sat here for years hating myself … This year was almost the end’
The QPR defender talks powerfully about his strives with mental illness, his addictions to gamble and drinking and why “he il be” thankful still to be alive
Steven Caulker has a fable to tell and, as hard as it is to hear, it is best plainly to listen. His stream of consciousness veers from scoring on his England debut less than five years ago and the excite at potential being realised to the frightening mental health issues a matter that have almost terminated it all in the period since. A actor who, from the outside, emerged consecrated with endowment and opportunity speaks of frantic nervousnes and self-loathing.
He entertained killing himself in his darkest instants with his path one of self-destruction. Endeavors at escapism rate him hundreds of thousands of pounds, compensations frittered away in casinoes. Then came the drinking is targeted at numbing the sting. The 25 -year-old notes himself recalling the times spent in custody watching CCTV footage of his misdemeanours, his lawyer at his slope, and not recognising the infamous being on the screen.
Football is still coming to terms with mental illness and Caulker, an international and a last-place linger remember at Queens Park Rangers of financially misguided dates as a Premier League club, has been an easy target. He is not was striving to make excuses or acquire sympathy. These are details he knows unpleasant to narrate. Ive sat here for years hating myself and never understand why it is I couldnt only be like everybody else, he says. This time was almost the end. I seemed for large spans there was no light-footed at the end of the passageway. And yet “hes not” residence a gambling since December, or stroked alcohol since early March. The healing process that can rehabilitate him to the top level is well under way, with this interview, one he attempted out, potentially another step on the road to recovery.
A little under a year ago Caulker had spoken to the Guardian about a life-changing week spent in Sierra Leone, of humbling yet invigorating benevolence work with ActionAid that had rendered him with a sense of view. He returned to be galvanised under Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink at Loftus Road and, having invested the previous season on loan at Southampton and Liverpool unfulfilling stints which fuelled his latent dangers was ready to give his all. Early season recitals against Leeds and Cardiff indicated confidence had been rebuilt, reward for a summer of incessant fitness work.
The trigger that they are able to mail him spiralling to rock bottom would be injury. He snapped his groin at Barnsley and played in pain for weeks, dreading a incantation back in rehabilitation, before succumbing to an accompanied hip objection. I owed it to QPR to try, he says, but I was naive thinking I could still perform with the weeping. He has not played since last-place October, with the period celebrated by personal ferment and, simply of late, resurgence. Talking publicly, he advocated, may place younger participates towards seeking assist if they find themselves trampling the same itinerary, or knowing the same gumption of desertion, in a merciless industry. The real hope is the activity, as gallant as it is, may eventually prove more cathartic for Caulker himself.
He recognises his football ability as a gift but likewise a swear. It took him from Sunday League at 15 into the Premier League four years later, to the 2012 Olympics with Great Britain and into Roy Hodgsons England side for a friendly in Sweden later that year. His talent has persuaded some of the most respected directors he is worth engaging. Yet, while he could still get away with it on the pitch, he lived in denial. It was more than six years into his busines before he admitted he necessitated assist. You always think you can rein it back in again and the money plies a inaccurate sense of security. But at Southampton I realised, mentally, I was extend. I wasnt playing, my job was going nowhere and I had to reach out to someone. Medical doctors there tried to help me but others were just telling me got to go on the tone and express myself.
There was no understanding as to what was happening in my leader. I know theyd returned me in to do a job and they werent there to be babysitters. Just like at QPR, I needed to justify the money they were paying me but I was in a state and, at some place, there has to be a duty of care. Football does not deal well with mental illness. Maybe its changing but the support mechanisms are so often not there. Ive spoken to so many actors who have been told to go to the Sporting Chance clinic and theyve accepted because they know, if they take time off, theyll “losing ones” neighbourhood in the team. Someone gradations in and does well, so youre departed. That dissuades parties from getting improve. You feel obliged to get on with things.
I would urge cubs to speak to the PFA, to speak to their director, and not be scared about being stopped if they are experiencing like I did. Be brave enough to say you need improve before its too late. The feeling Id ever involved something to take the edge off. Football was my flee as a kid but that changed when I was chucked into the first team as a adolescent and abruptly football came with distres. My behavior of to address it, even in the early stages of my career, was gambling. Im an addict. Im addicted to triumphing, which people say is a positive in football but certainly not when it extends to gambling. I was addicted to trying to beat the system, because you reassure yourself there is a plan to it and you can beat it. You can never get your brain around why you arent.

He has played 123 ages in the Premier League and for eight teams with the same, horribly familiar hertz of insecurity and self-destruction seeking him to each. There is always a catalyst to the nosedive. The sleepless darkness, sat up till 5am replaying every bad decision Ive ever became in my life, perturbing what will be next Tottenham moved me to Bristol City on loan at 18 and they set me in a flat in the city centre surrounded by nightclubs, two casinos opposite, the various kinds of coin Id never seen in my life, and no counseling whatsoever. I was plucked formerly by a member of staff and told Id been recognized in the casino at 3am but their posture was: What you do in your free time is your business. Just dont gave it affect your acts out on the pitch.
At Swansea a year later it was an injury which created it all to the surface, and Spurs communicated me to Boasting Chance to sort myself out while I was recovering from my knee but I wasnt ready. I hadnt experienced enough agony to form me want to stop. I was gambling heavily when I went back to Tottenham, biding up to crazy hours of the darknes in casinos. I guess never feeling good enough played a big part in that. I never appeared I was on the same degree as any of the first-teamers but a big win in the casino and fund in my back pocket might change that. Being stopped sounds me even more because football was what I had relied on to make me feel better. So then the gambling was every single day. The pain of forgetting all my fund, combined with the pity and guilt, ingest away at me. So Id drink myself into oblivion so I wouldnt have to feel anything. I was numb but I was out of control.
The chairman, Daniel Levy, eventually attempted him out on a post-season trip-up to the Bahamas. He just said: The room you act is phenomenal. You either sort yourself out or lead but I can assure you, if you leave, youll be going down , not up. I was young, stupid. I took it as a challenge, a chance to prove him wrong. I was so immature. So I went to Cardiff and, for six months, everything was amazing. I was chieftain, the manager, Malky Mackay, knew I had some issues but offered to be there for me. I experienced wanted, so there was no gambling , no heavy binges but the second largest he was sacked, all the beasts came back. Thats all it took. Even before we played the next game, Id persuasion myself good-for-nothing would be the same. Thats the kind of cataclysmic envisioning Ive had to address.

I pointed up at QPR that summertime, 2014, trying to hold it together, but the prompt there came in the second largest recreation when we were pummelled 4-0 at Tottenham. That detecting coming off the tone at White Hart Lane, knowing marriage been humiliated and that Levy was sitting up in the stand thinking: I told you so There was no disclaiming it any more. Id made a big mistake leaving Spurs. I should have stayed and sorted myself out. I required the ground to swallow me up. It just pounded in my psyche: dejection, unhappines, bitternes. From that instant I was run, even if I never wanted to accept it, and there is nothing that intensified. Id go for days without sleeping. I dont known better I endured it. That time was an absolute nightmare.
It was a vicious circle. Wed lose at the weekend and the love would get at me, and Id be interrupting. I really wanted to help us get results but we werent good enough and Id walk away taking responsibility in my head for the whole crews flunks. I couldnt sleep, are concerned about what had happened. The only comfort I acquired was in booze. It would silence the tones of indecision and self-hate, temporarily regardless, but Id be too intoxicated to go into teach, and the blackouts Id have no remember of anything. It could be Monday and Id have no remembrance of what had happened since Saturday night. Id wake up, roll over and look at my phone, and thered be texts from people saying: Did you really do this last-place darknes? The director want to talk to you. It was petrifying because I didnt know what had happened.
There were occasions where reference is would wake up in a police cell. He pouts when asked how often he has been arrested, upset to admit the above figures, but the drunk and disorderly offences would flare up from London to Southampton to Merseyside. Sometimes Id be sat there with law enforcement agencies and my solicitor, watching the CCTV footage of what Id done, and I didnt recognise myself. I couldnt conceive the person or persons I was. Its so hard to accept I could be like that. In Liverpool I was waking up in the middle of the nighttime throwing up, people were blackmailing me, association proprietors and bouncers: Offer money or well sell this story on you. And I had no meaning what Id even done on those blackouts. I eventually told the sorority I couldnt function and needed to go back into rehab.
Things might have improved last-place season under Hasselbaink had the hip hurt, diagnosed as a week-long edition that became a complaint which induced five different diagnosis , not interpret him powerless is again. Id expensed the organization 8m, was one of the top earners and one of the few left from the Premier League, and beings had no explanation why I wasnt acting. Why I was absent. It ended up as my toughest year ever. I couldnt learn. My girlfriend lost her mother and was grieving while living with someone struggling with craving. My son, who lives with his mother in Somerset, is still in academy so Id go months without recognizing him. He had always been my safe place. There was no release.
QPR and my agent tried to push me towards Lokomotiv Moscow in January, saying it would be a fresh start. Portion of me contemplated the money they were offering could solve all my difficulties but why would being on my own out in Russia help? I had no feeling how to separate the cycle and is available on Moscow while still disabled only appeared a recipe for disaster. The director, Ian Holloway, was actually tell people to stand. Id been in his office close to rips, so he said: How anyone could feel sending you there would be a good theme is beyond me. You need to get yourself right. I realized him for that but, for the sorority, I can see why it was appealing to be shot of me but I was in no fit district to move and eventually pulled the plug on it.
Id had one last-place gamble and lost a blaze of a lot of money in December. A last blowout. It was at that point I lastly countenanced I could not win; that there was no quick fix , no more fantasizing I could save the world through one good nighttime on the roulette wheel. It was all a fantasize that took me away from having to feel anything. I entertained suicide a lot in that stage. A dark era. Everything Id gone through in football, where had it taken me? All the remorse, the shame, the shame, the public humiliation in the working paper and for what? I could cling to my son, to what Id done in Africa, or the dimensions Id bought their own families, but Id blown everything else. I calculate Ive lost 70% what Ive payed. When “were losing” that amount of money, the guilt thats so many lives you could have changed. There was no flee , no way out, other than to leave.
Steven Caulker says: In Liverpool I was waking up in the middle of the darknes throwing up, parties were extorting me, club owneds and bouncers. Picture: Sarah Lee for the Guardian
But, in the moments of clarity, I knew I couldnt do that because of my son. I havent gambled since but the drink crowded the void for a while. I was frightened and didnt feel like there was anywhere else to transform. Rehab didnt production before so why would it work now? I stupidly took convenience in the alcohol but it objective up deepening the depression. It was relentless from every slant. Until 12 March. Thats the day I lost my “drivers licence”. Thats when I realised my life had now become unmanageable.
Caulker was ordered to pay 12,755 in penalties and costs at Slough magistrates court at the end of March and was banned from driving for 18 months, having refused to blow into a breathalyser after police were called to a parking lot near Windsor Castle. I knew I was over the limit, I knew Id get the ban but I didnt want to tell my parents Id fucked up again. What if I had driven the car out of the car park and killed someone? No, that was it. Ive been up before a adjudicate four or five times. No more second probabilities. Its a incarcerate sentence next. I was still injured and unable to play, so I signed off sick. I went to see a specialist who diagnosed me with depression and nervousnes. He prescribed me medication and we put together a design where I would take some time away to sort myself out.
He and his lover travelled to Africa and India, is contributing to orphanages, homeless shelters and academies where the bear was exposed and obvious. He has attended countless Gamblers Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous gathers, and has reached out to support works in video games such as Clarke Carlisle for advice. He has not touched alcohol since his arrest in March. He takes medication, a feeling stabiliser is striving to match my high-priceds and lows, and address that substance inequality which draws my practices so cataclysmic, twice a day. Golf is a new, most constructive vice.
People say Ive done all this because Ive had too much money shed at me but I know teenagers without a penny who have the same addictive characters as me. Whether I played football or not I would still be suffering from this illness, precisely without the public pressure and mortification. Addiction does not care. I am a man of extremes. Parties dont find me doing the additional training, feeing right, going to the reserve every night to get fit, were represented at the anonymous convenes, doing the donation make. That is still me. That is who I am. But I get fucked by these other demons and I desperately necessary something in the middle. I feel like Im getting there now, that things have finally changed.
Im doing interesting thing merely to prompt me to stay on track. I could be relying on taxis to get me everywhere while Im banned but Im exploiting public transport. Im living in one of the owneds I own in Feltham, back where I grew up, to stir me recollect how hard I had to work to get out of here aged 15. Its a remember that, if I continue to unravel, I wont improve my statu again. Money considers the fissures. It can be evil. It prolongs the agony.
QPRs musicians reported for pre-season last-place Friday but Caulker, who has one year to run on his contract and has been improving all summertime with the former conference player Drewe Broughton at Goals centre in Hayes, had been signed off until July. Life at the golf-club had degenerated into an incessant flow of internal disciplinary hearings and, despite Holloway having become clear his desire to retain the centre-halfs business, his future will not is currently under Loftus Road. What happens next is all a bit perplexed, all a bit uncertain, he says. The manager has texted me several times offering his support and “says hes” misses me at the club but my brand-new representative has been informed by the owners Im not welcome back.
For too long Ive disliked everything about myself and I needed to learn to affection myself again. I miss video games like crazy. I dont detect as if Ive experienced playing football since Cardiff. I dont want to type my identify into Google and just see a roster of humbling narrations. I want people to remember I am a footballer who was good enough to represent his country at 20 and still has 10 years left in the game. At 40% of my ability, I was playing at the highest level. Now I feel good mentally and I want the chance to show people, including my son, what I am absolutely capable of. Wherever the opportunity starts, Im exactly appreciative still to be alive.
