Infinite Hope

Most mornings I go to gym for a group fitness class. It’s part of how I take care of myself, both physically, mentally and socially. I exercise, get stress relief and hang out with friends. If yo look through past posts, you’ll see me mention the gym and my fitness along with ministry many times. Today I’m not writing about fitness. but about hope and reality.

At the gym we use clips on the ends of barbells to keep weights from sliding off. It’s the wire spring-looking thing in this picture:

At my the gym I go to, we use a rack to hold a bunch of these clips when they are not in use. I’m relying heavily on pictures today, so here’s another photo - of a rack laden with wire barbell clips:

Most days when I am done using clips, I try to “horseshoe toss” them back onto the rack. If you can’t guess, this is a near impossible task - one which I have not yet achieved. Here’s my latest attempt:

This is a lot of backstory to get to my message. The message is “Why?” Why, in the face of almost guaranteed failure, would I continue to try to do this almost meaningless task? Therein lies the crux, the lesson which goes beyond my silly game.

At times life seems overwhelming: Our personal goals are insurmountable. The country and world are in disarray and injustice reigns. Nothing I do matters or has an impact. This is where hope comes in. Hope is the idea that despite disappointed, despite being overwhelmed, despite failing or falling short... we still believe that improvement is possible. We still believe that our actions have an impact. We still believe that the world can be a more loving place and that I can make it that way.

My actions at the gym speak to a much deeper faith I have. I have faith that despite failings I can still make a difference. I have faith that what I write here makes a difference, that the kindness I show to strangers and friends goes on in the world. I strive to live into Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s words:

Let that be a mantra. Don’t give up. Whether it is a small goal or a world-changing aspiration. The disappointment will come and go, make sure you stick with that hope!

You've read a million newsies high school AUs, so here's the newsies high school ten-year-reunion AU.

Jack was senior class president, but he's MIA, so Katherine and Specs planned the whole thing. Katherine chose the theme, Kings and Queens of New York, even though Specs told her it was kind of cheesy.

Buttons has a PhD in medieval history; he arrives at the hotel function room in a replica of a 14th century robe that is extremely period-accurate. Crutchie and his wife interpreted the theme in a more whimsical way; Crutchie is wearing what looks like a vintage 1920s mink stole with the head and paws attached, plus a pair of gold glitter cat ears. Everyone else just wore nice clubbing outfits with maybe a tiara or something.

Romeo is single right now, but seems to be feeling the need to come out to all of his old friends, one by one, even though they have all seen his tik toks by now.

Spot and Mush both ran out to the dancefloor from opposite sides of the room when they heard the DJ play the first notes of Beyonce's "Countdown" at the beginning of the night. They never hung out in high school, but they have been dancing together for hours. Spot has lost her spike heels. Every time Mush tries to leave to get food or a drink, she pulls him back.

Oscar and his boyfriend are making out by the bar. They don't talk to anyone else.

Yesterday, David found a box of stuff from high school in the basement storage room at his mom's apartment -- programs from graduation, a random copy of the school newspaper -- and he arrived early to scatter this memorobilia on the tables to surprise everyone. He keeps overhearing Elmer proudly telling different people that Buttons is a doctor now, without context, and it is kind of driving him bananas. He's also annoyed that Jack didn't show up, though he realizes he should have known better than to get his hopes up.

Meanwhile, Racetrack is already drunk and is going around the room spreading the word that everyone is going to meet up at Jacobi's on West 6th after the reunion to shoot pool.

Finch and his girlfriend are into CrossFit and are both super buff. It makes Finch's head look weirdly small. JoJo now owns his own business and drops this fact into every conversation. Albert is still trying to make it as a stand-up comic.

The food at the buffet is actually pretty good, but the open bar ends at 8. Luckily, Morris brought a bottle of Espolòn Blanco tequila to share. Even Katherine has some. Morris and Tommy Boy show each other too many pictures of their kids.

The hotel kicks them all out at 10 pm sharp.

David knows he has to get up early the next morning to drive back home to Pennsylvania, but he decides to go to Jacobi's anyway. When he gets there, he sees Racetrack and Crutchie playing eight-ball in the back. Crutchie is still wearing his tattered mink stole and is losing badly, though to be fair, he has to lean against the table edge for balance every time he takes a shot. Crutchie's wife, who is very pretty, is at the bar drinking whiskey with Spot, who has on the cat ears now. No one else from their high school seems to be there.

David texts Katherine and learns that most people went to a trendy new dance club uptown instead. They even paid a cover.

Tough shit, he texts her. Get over here. For old times sake. And he orders a Miller and tells Racetrack and Crutchie he's got the winner.

ROYAL ASSASSIN ABRIDGED: PRELUDE

My friend Razz wants to understand my shitposting about the Farseer Trilogy, but doesn't want to actually have to read the books, so I'm summarizing them for them (and you)!

Read previous entries

LAST TIME, ON DRAGON BOOK Z: Fitz is a bastard who knows telepathy and talks to animals. He's taught to be an assassin, then goes up to the mountains on a mission and completely fails at it. His uncle tries to kill him. His OTHER uncle gets married.

CAST OF CHARACTERS (holy shit there are so many characters in this book)

THE FARSEERS

Six Duchies royal family, of which several members are now dead. This will include Farseers-by-Marriage (Dead or head-exploded characters will have their own category).

FitzChivalry Farseer: The POV character, Prince Chivalry's bastard. Loyal as a K-Pop stan who still has a BTS McNugget meal preserved in their freezer. He possesses both the Skill (Professor X telepathy) and the Wit (Dr. Doolittle animal chats).

Prince Verity: Currently King-in-Waiting, a lifelong second-in-command who was suddenly thrust into a leadership role when his older brother fucked off to be assassinated. Recently married, super strong in the Skill, does not ask for consent before mind-molesting Fitz.

Queen Kettricken: Recently married to Verity, she came all the way from the Mountain Kingdom to clean up Buckkeep and be miserable because she's used to doing Crossfit in the snow and now she has to sit and pretend to laugh at other people's jokes.

Prince Regal: The sneaky, moustache-twirling evil younger half brother of Verity. He killed like four people at Verity's wedding and tried to murder Fitz with a hot tub, and they just sort of let him get away with it.

King Shrewd: The current king, currently pretty old and afflicted with some kind of wasting disease. Fitz is technically bound to him by a pact he made as a child, but they both kind of ignore that most of the time.

Chade: King Shrewd’s older half-brother on the wrong side of the sheets. An assassin. Lives in the walls. Has a weasel. Came out of the wall into Fitz's room and taught him how to be an assassin. Sort of a father figure, but the kind that yells at you to hold the flashlight steady while he works on the car.

Patience: Chivalry’s widow. Helicopter-parents Fitz whenever he comes within fifteen feet of her. The ADHD champion of the Six ooh is that a book on rare ferns?

NOBLES

Duke Brawndy: Duke of Ripplekeep, a pretty stand-up dude. Father to Celerity and member of the Fitz Fan Club.

Lady Celerity: Has a big ol' fourteen-year-old crush on handsome, virile Fitz. She's pretty okay for someone who was named after a vegetable you put peanut butter on.

Duke Kelvar: Remember him? He finally manned his fucking watchtowers at Neatbay. Fitz fanclub member. Husband to Lady Grace, his young hotness wife whose dog Fitz pulled a fish bone out of.

CASTLE AND STABLE FOLK

Burrich: Fitz's primary father figure, the kind that takes you to football games and Hooters to try to flush the Gay out of you. Stablemaster of Buckkeep, and also has the Wit. Used to be heterosexual life partners with Prince Chivalry. Took several blows to the head last book and seems to be okay.

Hands: Fitz's stablehand friend. He's been relegated to background character.

Lacy: Patience’s serving woman and bestie. Makes lace, nods indulgently and will stab you.

The Fool: Albino freak-teenager with a special interest in cryptids and making up rhymes about farting. King Shrewd's jester.

Justin: Part of the Skill Coterie. Hangs out with Serene most of the time, card-carrying member of the Fitz Sucks and Smells Bad club.

Serene: The only female member of the Skill Coterie. Treasurer of the Fitz Sucks and Smells Bad club.

Carrod: Local fop and member of the Skill Coterie. In this book he mostly sneers at Fitz and says cringe things while everyone else is trying to work.

Burl: Part of the Skill Coterie... is Burl even in this book? I can't remember. Less dumb than you think he is.

Will: Part of the Skill Coterie. Hangs out in shadows and stares fixedly at people.

Molly Chandler: A candlemaker and servant who wants to go back to being a candlemaker. Girlboss. Fitz would buy her bathwater.

Rosemary: Kettricken's page. She's just a little girl. So cute. What's she doing? Oh, she's coloring. Aww.

Wallace: King Shrewd's servant and sometimes healer. One time the Fool calls him Wall's-ass.

Bolt: A guardsman who shows up at the end of the book to punch Fitz repeatedly in the face. I only mention him here because he shows up in the next book as well.

Blade: An older guardsman, Fitz fanclub member.

ANIMALS:

Cub/Nighteyes: A wolf soul-bonded to Fitz. Talks in italics. Possesses the single braincell out of everyone in the entire series.

Sooty: Fitz’s horse. Best mare, perfect cinnamon roll and can do no wrong.

Vixen: Burrich’s dog. Good dog.

Slink: A weasel belonging to Chade.

OTHER NOTABLES:

The Red Ship Raiders: Mongolian Vikings who have been Viking their merry way up and down the coast, burninating villages and kidnapping people to be Forged.

Forged people: Zombies. It's a tiny bit more complicated than that, but you don't find that out for another like, six books, so: they're zombies.

Lady Thyme: A horrible old woman who is really Chade in disguise. The Elderlings: Who are they? What are they? No one knows.

DEAD PEOPLE:

Chivalry: Dead from probably assassination.

Queen Desire: Regal's mom, dead from drug use but Regal THINKS it was assassination.

Rurisk: Dead from poisoning by Regal.

Cobb: Dead from stab by Fitz.

Galen: Dead from Skill-explosion by Verity.

August: Okay he's not DEAD, but Verity Skill-megaphoned him and he went to live on a farm upstate.

Smithy: Went back to his home planet after Cobb hugged him and told him he was a good boy.

Nosy: Went back to his home planet after saving Fitz from dying in a hot tub.

MAGICS (I know magic is not a character, but they do have to be explained somewhere)

The Wit: The ability to “bond” with certain animals and speak with them, as well as sense life force and to do a kind of mental shove at people. You tend to act a little like the animal you’ve bonded to. Witted people are considered gross and animalistic and are run out of town or put to death.

The Skill: Telepathy. Considered the “birthright” of the Farseers. Most people can sense it at least a little, but it takes inborn talent and a lot of careful training to do anything useful with it. Skilling apparently feels awesome but if you give in to the temptation to fully open yourself to it you can get sucked out of your own brain.

NEXT TIME: Part one of Royal Assassin Abridged!

⟨Seth Rollins. cis male. he/they. 37.⟩ We just saw Ansel Briar entering L’Antique C’est Chic. I heard through the grapevine that their loyalties lie with the Jolly Rogers and that they also go by the King of Hearts. Be careful, they work for them as an assassin and can sometimes be bored by repetition, jealous, petty, or even bloodthirsty but I’ve also heard some people say that they were dedicated, confident and quite stylish.— Moss. they/them. 23. EST. violence against children (< 10)

AESTHETIC | MUSIC | LONDON FALLING RPG

STATS

Real name: Ansel Ford Briar

Code name: King of Hearts

Physical: 6'1", 225 lbs

Birthplace: Houlton, Maine, US

DOB: August 10, 1986

Star sign: Leo

Gender: Male-adjacent (he/they)

Sexuality: Bisexual disaster

FC: Seth Rollins

Family: Dan Briar (Father), Evelyn Summers-Briar (Mother), Four Siblings (I'll name 'em someday), Rebecca Briar (formerly Ballagh, Ex-Wife)

BIOGRAPHY

Ansel’s from the sticks. His father was a hunter first and owner of the local general store second, born and raised in the woods of northern Maine, where his mother settled there later with a group of poets and artists who were inspired by the quiet snowy mountains and the way the sun shines through the leaves. Those same mountains meant she had to be driven nearly two hours in the family’s beater red pickup to the nearest hospital to bring him and his younger siblings into the world. All of them were hard on her, but that didn’t stop them from having five kids.

His mother called him Ansel, after Ansel Adams. His dad said that was some pretentious bullshit and always called him Andy, or the leader of the pack, so Ansel did his best to step up and be the best role model he could. He started following his father out hunting when he was five, and maybe they should’ve started worrying when he took to it so quickly. Maybe Ansel had a couple too many questions about how to balance wearing camo to blend in with bright, flashy hunter oranges and yellows, but was happy enough to sit still and quiet, listening for a broken twig or rustling leaves, and he never cried when his dad showed how they’d have to slit a buck’s throat to kill it quickly if the first shot didn’t get it done. Ansel killed his first deer at 8 without his dad holding the rifle steady, skinned it a little too quickly and held onto the antlers as a trophy as long as he could.

Ansel went to a university in Boston, and both reveled in finally being a small fish in a much bigger pond, and itched for attention. He studied literature to keep his mother happy, spent hours hitting the gym to look more impressive than he was and make up for the lack of mountains to climb, and made the rounds through anyone looking for a messy one-night stand.

But then met Rebecca Ballagh in some 300 level poetry class he suddenly had to pretend he cared about. She was something special, had enough of a dangerous edge that Ansel couldn’t get bored of her if he tried. He met her family at a shooting range outside the city after dating for about a year, and they offered to put him up and give him a job if he wanted to stay in Boston. It took him a little too long to realize her family were the last, quiet dregs of the Winter Hill Gang and US-based IRA that were slowly building themselves back up, but hey, the one thing he’d missed about home was hunting.

A person ain’t too different from a deer, to a wolf. Everything bleeds the same.

But now that he ran with a pack again, it came with new rules. Clean up, cut your hair, kid. Pipe down. Dress like everyone else. Wear black. Shut the fuck up and become a ghost. Becca helped when she could, but she liked him better this way too. Colder, a soldier. They got married in 1998, and Ansel didn’t quite look like himself in the pictures.

He tried as hard as he could to just focus on blending in- you don’t wear camo without orange, you’ll get shot- but the longer he stayed, the whole gang made his skin crawl. Every hit was scripted down to the second, and if he deviated from it in the moment to keep himself alive and useful he got beat down and hung out to dry in front of the rest of the gang. He started spending more time at their local crossfit box than with his wife. At least something was intensive enough to make him feel something. But even that after a while started to feel monotonous. The same fights with the family. The same rotation of classes and workouts and late night jobs. The same accusations that he was having an affair with his trainer. Always the fucking same. Boredom sunk its claws into him, but breaking routine only shortened his leash.

They slowly fell apart over seven years, until Becca served him their divorce papers in 2004. Maybe he bitterly sent an anonymous tip to the local PD about the plans for the family’s next few moves the day before they had to appear in court. Served them right, Ansel thought. At least until cops had barricaded the entrance to his new studio apartment he just finished moving into a week later, saying that they’d been given anonymous information that warranted arrest and trial.

He didn’t know who else to call except one of the gang’s lawyers, who came in all smug smiles and talked him through exactly what had been given to the cops like he’d written up the list. With the given evidence, he would have done life in prison and paid thousands of dollars in fines on top of legal fees. But by already coming back to them? The gang could put in some work, get it down to a lot of hearsay and a manslaughter charge on one of the hits that Ansel had really fucked up. The angle was clear, and the gang were convinced that by getting it down to ONLY 15 years in a State Prison, he’d have to come crawling back to them on his knees. He walked free in 2019, finally sick of sick of sewing orange and camo, but with enough scattered online classes for a quasi fashion degree and a developed enough collection that he could apply and get his visa to work a brutal, grunt seamstress job at Burberry, and get the fuck away from Boston before he could even be approached by his former pack.

Being American and an ex-convict did him very little favors and that job was falling through before he knew it, but he had found a couple crossfit boxes along the way, and did his best to fight off the bone-deep itch to draw blood other than pricking his own fingers, and take sharpened fabric scissors to someone’s flesh. The wolf was almost free of his chains, screaming to be fed so he could be truly free and then suddenly he’d killed his landlord after Burberry fired him and Ansel couldn’t quite scratch together rent. A vague shape of a heart carved into the side of his neck with a kitchen knife just so he could watch it bleed. Instinct took over, and he covered his ass, watched the press run wild, and was quickly approached by a different sort of pack. Not a family, like Winter hill, but a crew. The Jolly Rodgers.

Winx Club Head Canon for Specialists Workout Editon

Continuing on my head canon on what each Winx Club Character would do for workouts. Again, these head canons will be based on the personalities of the characters redesigns my boyfriend @thewickedmerman did. I will also be posting the specialists in the order of which I posted the Winx Club as in each guy will put in the same place as the Winx girl they are dating. Also Brandon & Helia are fairies, Timmy and Nabu are Sorcerers and Sky and Riven are the only two people without powers. Without Further a do here are my workouts I head canon for each Specialist.

Helia: Fairy of Art (Also using this Collage because I love his beautiful hair) For his workouts I can see him being in acrobatics similar to Dick Grayson and Ty Lee. He would do some strength training but not to the extent Brandon, Sky and Riven do it. I can see him doing Yoga, Ballet and Gymnastics and swimming.

Timmy Sorcerer of Technology:

I honestly think Timmy would be the least athletic of the Specialists, and I can also see him being more like the surveillance like Tecna. However, I do think he would have some form of physical training, so to me his workouts would include boxing, basic self-defense, fencing and some strength training.

Riven: Best Fighter,

Due to Riven not having any powers and facing abuse from both his parents I can see him being the most athletic. His workout routine is strength and conditioning training. He is the kind of guy to join a CrossFit gym. His workouts would be like Oliver Queen aka Green Arrow and Bruce Wayne aka Batman. To Give you an idea here is a seven-minute clip of Oliver’s workout from season 1 of Arrow. (The salmon ladder is where you do a pull up and move the bar up a rung while you do it. Hot Damn it is sexy)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43FMVVTx8-I

Brandon Fairy of Geodes.

In this version Brandon was a chubby boy growing up and he is still the squire/Sky’s body gaurd. As the fairy of Geodes, meaning rocks he would basically have a lot of makeshift workout gear handy. His workouts include weightlifting, rock climbing, and he would jump rope, climb rope and pull Bolders similar to how some would pull cars or tires for a workout. A six minute workout to show what I picture Brandon’s workouts looking like. I also think he and Riven would have similar workouts like Mulan

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTdTO9vghl4

Nabu Sorcerer of Healing and Illusions (He is also an actual Merman in this version, and I made this Collage because he has beautiful hair)

His workouts consist of swimming, weight lifting and water aerobics. He is also dating the most athletic of the Winx girls, so he would feel pressure to keep up with her.

Last but not least Sky: Future King of Eraklyon.

He technically has no reason to be in shape however he trained a lot due to him not having any powers he refuses to sit on the sidelines. He prefers to be in the midst of action and as future leader he wants to lead by example. His workouts consist of weightlifting, rock climbing and he like Riven hits the gym hard. Sky would also join a cross fit gym. He also knows martial arts and would be great at fencing. He is the second best fighter after Riven.

All in all, this is my personal opinion and once again these pictures come from my boyfriend’s @thewickedmerman. These are just my head canons. If you disagree, please state why respectfully and let me know what you think of how their workouts would be. I will now rank them from least athletic to most athletic. (These rankings maybe subject to change)

Timmy

Helia

Nabu

Brandon

Sky

Riven

in honor of fourth of july coming up in the united states...

litg season two boys in the us on july 4th

this is way funnier if you're in the usa but if you're not... just know that for each of these characters, there is a real person acting like this at every fourth of july party.

🎇 arjun he's worried about the dogs inside the house. he is too busy lecturing people on the safety of fireworks with pets to have any fun. everyone knows he has a point but no one wants to talk to him and avoids him at all costs. it's every man for themselves when it comes to talking to him, your partner will leave you alone with him if it means they can get away.

🎆 bobby buys a ton of fireworks and piles them together in one spot. lights them from a distance while they all go up into the air in absolute chaos. laughs manically as a joke and screams 'happy birthday, america!'

🎇 carl the guy that started planning the firework show on july 5th the year before. sets off the best damn firework display you've ever seen complete with coordinated music. three years ago, the grand finale part didn't fire off and he's still salty about it.

🎆 elijah uses the party to advertise himself as a hairstylist and barber. compliments everyone's hair and tells them what he would do for them and shows them example pictures from google. uses the opportunity to talk about himself and how he's an instagram model. asks them to follow him before giving them his card for the salon/shop.

🎇 felix everyone was careful not to bring up the party or invite him. somehow, he finds out and shows up anyways. brings the cheapest beer you can buy from the gas station. sets off fireworks before it gets dark. gets close to a firework that didn't go off, despite being told he'll hurt himself, says he won't hurt himself as he waves his hand. hurts himself badly.

🎆 gary the guy at the party wearing jorts and an american flag tank top. shot guns a beer faster than everyone, wipes his mouth with his forearm then burps and says: 'merica.

🎇 graham brings various seafood to have a boil, despite the host saying they didn't need him to bring anything. ends up not knowing how to use the cooker he brought and whines that the crawfish would have been better. ends up eating a cheeseburger anyway.

🎆 henrik the life of the party. the ruler of the beer pong table and king of flip cup and cornhole. after winning so much, wears an american flag as a cape. gets close to a firework that didn't go off, despite being told not to because he'll hurt himself but he says he won't. he does not hurt himself. absolute beast.

🎇 jakub the single guy flirting with anyone and anything that will talk to him. uses any opportunity to bring up how he does crossfit now. and he's doing macros. and how much he can bench. he will also give you all his 'pr' numbers for clean and jerk, clean, deadlift, etc. did he mention he does crossfit?

🎆 lucas the stressed out host. is too busy cleaning up after everyone to have any fun. is also too busy checking on mc to see if she's having fun to have any fun himself. keeps saying he won't host the party next year but every year without fail, texts everyone the details on june 4th, exactly one month in advanced.

🎇 noah knows all the history about fourth of july. quizzes people on it to see if anyone knows all the details why it's celebrated but he isn't a dick about it. constantly asks the host if they need help with anything. stays after and helps clean up when the party is over because he's just a stand up guy.

🎆 rahim tries to get everyone to play games like volleyball and fun relay races to stay active. everyone ignores it and keeps drinking. brought his own (american) football with him in case anyone wanted to play a pick-up game.

🎇 rocco the guy who is passed out before 9pm. started drinking at 9am despite promising to pace himself this year. before he passed out, he designated himself as the bartender and the drinks were terrible.

Beifong kids face models for @campchitaquamemories, per request! Under the cut again.

Let’s start with the Republic City Beifongs, shall we?

San. His model is this dude, Lee Min Gyu, who is a schoolteacher from Korea. (A schoolteacher. All I have to say is that none of MY teachers looked like this.) I do see him as a mix between Bolin and Opal and their families. He’s got Bolin’s bright green eyes.

Bu. Face model Darren Chen. Softer and sweeter than San, looks more like a Beifong. I’ve seen him in a few different Chinese dramas and always think of Bu. His eyes are Opal’s softer green. His bison’s name is Ginger, because he’s very shaggy with fur the color of grated ginger.

Pearl is represented by this very muscular crossfit trainer. Pearl has the body of an earthbender, despite being an airbender. She’s wicked strong and like her father, whom she mostly resembles, has strong features. She’s not classically pretty but she’s arresting. Her hair is short and curly, though. In fact, she has Darren Chen’s haircut, above. She will finally get her arrows at the same time as Emerald, despite earning them in her teens. She’s got Bolin’s bright green eyes. Her bison’s name is Boom-Boom, AKA Boomster AKA The Boomerang AKA Boom-Bada-Bing AKA you get the idea.

Now on to the Flower Garden!

Orchid. Obviously this is a stock shot but this is exactly how I see Orchid, although she’s certainly got more of a fuller figure, thanks to her mother. A classic beauty. (I had to mentally add in Nuo’s dimples to all 4 girls.) Her eyes are Beifong however, that jade green color.

Iris. This woman is from a Mongolian catalogue. The name Baatar is Mongolian and that’s how I headcanon Baatar Sr. Iris takes after him - and her father - a great deal. You do not want Iris on the opposite side of you in court. She likes to win. At everything.

Rose. Another stock photo, but she’s a mixup of both her parents. She’s got her father’s firmer jaw but her mother’s black eyes.

Poppy. I saw this online as part of a photo shoot and HOLY FORKING SHIRTBALLS this is EXACTLY Poppy Beifong right here. EXACTLY. It was like someone yanked her right out of my head, high heels and lipsticked mouth and do you really think you’re worth my time attitude and all. Jai never stood a chance.

On to the Northern Air Temple!

Goba. I only have a child reference model for Goba, because for a long time he was an eternal three year old for me. With his squared-off little smile! Just age him up as necessary. He never gets taller than about 5′6″ (168 cm) but Hua, like her mother, appreciates a short king. His bison’s name is Dolly, named for his first dolly (which he will keep for the rest of his life).

Katara II carries a fair amount of the Mongolian look about her. She resembles both Baatars a great deal, although she’s got the pale green Beifong eyes. Her bison’s name is Tuuli (which is Finnish for wind).

Tseten is a pretty good mixup of both of his parents. He is, generally speaking, pretty good-humored and smiles a lot. Has piercings. Turned out surprisingly chill, considering his ancestry. Gets lots of tattoos as an adult, including a blue airbending arrow pointing down to his heart. He’s got Ikki’s gray eyes, however. His bison’s name is Stony. Which is a reference to his being an earthbender. Mostly.

Bhuti. If there was anybody going to be taking a photo of herself with sunglasses sitting between two air bison with sunglasses on as well it would be our girl Bhuti. Who would then go off to snowboard off the side of the mountain. Into the air. Ride the air currents all the way down. She gets her arrows at the age of 13 and is the cause of a lot of Baatar’s gray hair, is all I am saying. Her eyes are the same olive color as Baatar’s. (I know those are Tibetan Mastiffs and not air bison but work with me here, people. Did I mention her bison’s name is Sir Wigglesbottom? Because it is.)

Spouses? Sure! I only have face models for a few of them, though.

Amak - Northern Water Tribe, with a brilliant, mischievous sparkle in her eyes that made San fall in love with her pretty much immediately. Her name means playful (like an otter) and that’s exactly how I see her. She’s got blue eyes the exact color of the Finnish sky in summer.

Jai - I always had Sendhil Ramamurthy in mind for him, from the start. Tall, lanky, dark, Indian. The only difference is that Jai’s eyes are lighter color - a sort of golden brown - and Jai has a perpetual scowl on his face. And hard hat hair.

Sotheara is a Cambodian name that means “pretty flower” (yes, she’s part of the Flower Garden). Our Sotheara is very kind and compassionate - she’s a lawyer with the Republic City equivalent of the ACLU and does pro-bono civil/human rights cases. People often underestimate her because of how sweet she looks. That is a very big mistake.

This Tibetan woman is unidentified, but that penetrating (aka stop with your bullshit) look is one both Goba and Hua would recognize. Yes. Kelden.

Deinósavros [RSA Fandorm]

“𝕐𝕠𝕦 𝕨𝕚𝕝𝕝 𝕗𝕒𝕔𝕖 𝕞𝕒𝕟𝕪 𝕕𝕖𝕗𝕖𝕒𝕥𝕤 𝕚𝕟 𝕝𝕚𝕗𝕖, 𝕓𝕦𝕥 𝕟𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕣 𝕝𝕖𝕥 𝕪𝕠𝕦𝕣𝕤𝕖𝕝𝕗 𝕓𝕖 𝕕𝕖𝕗𝕖𝕒𝕥𝕖𝕕.”

welcome one and all, big and small, civil and feral, to Deinósavros! Let's go on a wild tour, now shall we?

This dorm was founded on the Ambition of the King of monsters, and thus every member fit into the same category - their all some kind of beastman/merperson (having any sort of other worldly/beastial/monster-ish type of attributes are important for ocs to have to be able to be in this dorm. not 100% mandatory but it's expected and encouraged. fae ocs are okay if kept to a minimum, but humans won't be accepted).

They all have strong motivations and are passionate in what they believe in. they are each very driven by something that they'd rather die than stray from. Whether that be self improvement, personal gain, world order, etc. they all carry themselves with a lot of pride, considering themselves to be better than the other dorms in most aspects.

The current Housewarden is Kaiyō Rūrābīsuto, a boy who most would say resembles the King of Monsters himself.. in personality, morals, and somewhat in appearance. and the vice house warden is Taranis Vervloet, who most say resembles the king of monsters' long time enemy, in personality and somewhat in morals, not too much in appearance besides his tails.

They have been rivals since childhood, their families being on not so good terms for since as long as any of them could remember.. These two boys are always arguing, rough housing, and competing - such as for the best grades or highest score in spelldrive either against each other or against NRC. Taranis constantly challenges Kaiyō for his housewarden spot whenever he can.

Most wonder why Kaiyō choose Taranis to be his vice, considering their rocky history, and he never answers them.. but the truth of it is that they both deeply respect each other underneath all that hatred, mainly for each other's strength and magic skills. which is why they never go easy on each other with anything - it would be considered a pathetic in their eyes if either of them went easy on the other for anything. he's always known Taranis is the one to pick when he needs something done that he can't do alone or doesn't have time for, and Taranis is known to not like failure - so he always works to exceed expectations.. sometimes just out of spite.

Kaiyō runs his own self defense training course for his dormmates, a very strict and riggerous course that is similar to irl crossfit sessions, but kicked up a notch to be bit harder the normal due to beastmen finding regular human exercises to be too easy. If your from one of the other dorms in rsa, you can still get an invite to the sessions if you ask him nicely! He admires when people, regardless of race or dorm, strive to improve themselves in different (mainly physical) ways. He will check what things you lack in (speed, strength, endurance, flexibility, etc.) And give you certain exercises/challenges that reflect those things to help you work on them!

From the outside in, the life inside of the dorm may seem a bit.. barbaric, by RSA's standards, similar to how Savannaclaw operates. though due to being made up of mostly princes and nobles they at least have some level of class. The members are constantly having duels and challenging each other to prove their dominance and raise up the ranks of the perceived hierarchy of the dorm. weaker members challenging stronger ones to prove their place. generally the members tend to form cliques with those either in their same class or just in their same year overall, different years typically don't interact with each other unless needed such as for classes with pair ups in alchemy and whatnot.

He isn't known to be a very talkative person, usually keeping his thoughts and feelings to himself. Usually found meditating somewhere surrounded by nature. Despite his very intimidating stature and appearance, he is a very polite (maybe a bit too polite sometimes, but is far from a doormat) and friendly person! He won't ever turn anyone away if their brave enough to approach him and a for assistance, even if he's busy with something. He'll either drop it to help, or help as he works. He can be a bit.. strict, as a tutor for class subjects, but he tries!

He swears he doesn't intentionally act like a hardass when frustrated, he usually has his emotions under hard lock and key. He promises he won't be mad if you mess things up or aren't good at something - he'll stay by your side and either help you find a a around, or till you manage to overcome what your struggling with. He's a great listener too! Never interrupts, and even gives good (self learned.. the hard way) advice!

Though this goes to show how strong alliances can be, as friendships - while not very common - between dorm members in Deinósavros are very fierce and unbreakable. it's usually the newer/weaker members grouping together to survive the harsh environment, while older/stronger members typically go solo. but those experiences have solidified those alliances, and genuine connections can be formed over time.

If your from outside of the dorm, you will be judged harshly, but if your able to befriend one member of the dorm (not very easy at all due to each members natural skepticism of non-'monsters', which is due to a long standing ostracism of them from non-'monster' people in society) or defeat one in battle, you will be considered an honorary dorm member by the rest of the dorm and can have free/insured passage through their part of campus as well as a bunch of unofficial bodyguards who will defend you fiercely.

Though it's a double edged sword as depending on who you befriend or defeat will depend on your honorary status in the dorm, and if you end up higher up in that 'hierarchy' then lower ranked members will challenge you. so just make sure to watch your step!

Strength is something that is prioritized in the dorm - if you can't defend yourself, how can you expect to survive in the equally as competitive outside world? They have a saying the members throw around a lot: "if you can't protect what you own/or care for, then you don't deserve to have it." so the members are instinctually very protective of things they own or people they care about.

the color scheme of the uniforms, arm ribbons, and gem pins, are deep blues and blacks. the dorm building/rooms have a sort of regal gothic theme, while the outside looks like a florists wildest dream, with many overgrown plants and whatnot. everything was built to accommodate abnormally tall people/those with more unconventional creature attributes. so tall doors, high ceilings, and lots of wide open areas.

Do you think you have what it takes to survive this dorm and those who reside in it? join Deinósavros today!

and remember; Life always finds a way.

All This Time (ao3) - InterruptingDinosaur steve/bucky T, 8k

Barnes Family Motors, Inc. (ao3) - phlintandsteel bucky/tony E, 68k

Summary: In a world where alphas legally own omegas, Bucky is just a small time mechanic from Brooklyn who gets lucky in a poker game. Tony is an omega whose life is fraught with abuse, until his luck suddenly takes a turn for the better.

In the grand scheme of things they may only be able to make little differences in the lives of those around them, but that doesn't mean it's not worth making them. After all, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

During Business Hours: A Filthy Coffee Shop AU (ao3) - samanthahirr steve/bucky E, 25k

Summary: Unemployed artist Steve takes a job managing the worst coffee shop in Brooklyn, where the floors are greasy, the coffee beans have expired, the espresso machine’s been sabotaged, and the owners might be Russian Mafia. But the job comes with a few perks, like a generous paycheck, reasonable hours, and one super-hot customer whom Steve can’t resist having dirty, filthy, bad-idea sex with in the bathroom.

Steve is pretty sure this job is going to kill him. But what a way to go….

Euphoria (ao3) - Purple_ducky00 bucky/tony, steve/sam M, 7k

he said, i’m a dirty rascal and i’m here to teach the king (ao3) - livingtheobsessedlife bruce/thor G, 7k

Summary: “Excuse me, good sir!” The stranger says, much too loud for a library but oh god he has an accent too, and Bruce can feel the blush spreading over his cheeks, “I require assistance!”

“I’d be happy to help,” Bruce says, his voice cracking just a tiny bit, “What can I do for you?”

Ignore the Story and See the Soul (ao3) - MarcellaBianca steve/bucky E, 43k

Summary: Steve Rogers is doing great. He survived a tough childhood filled with illness and childhood asthma to become the owner of a lucrative "box" in Brooklyn, New York, alongside his best friend, Sam Wilson. He also works as a freelance artist and is slowly finding success in that side of his work. Overall, life is pretty awesome.

And then he gets dragged to a yoga class, and a man with a full tattoo sleeve and a devastating smile just might upend Steve's great, normal life.

Or - the yoga and Crossfit AU literally nobody asked for.

make you mine (ao3) - haveufoundwhaturlookingfor sam/bucky T, 2k

Summary: In which Bucky is dared to ask Sam Wilson out, but Sam catches on before Bucky even has a chance.

Misdemeanor (ao3) - Avaaricious steve/bucky G, 14k

Steve Rogers someone who never bothered to get one: ....no

not just a coffee shop (ao3) - haveufoundwhaturlookingfor peter quill/sam G, 1k

Summary: Peter Quill is the new barista at Sam's coffee shop. Things start off rocky, but it doesn't take long for Sam to change his opinion.

Something to Someone (ao3) - Andrea1717 bucky/steve E, 94k

Summary: At twenty four Steve is living a life he loves. Working at the hospital with his childhood best friend Natasha. Living in an apartment not far from his mother in New York City.

One day at a night shift he gets an unusual task: watching a patient all night who refuses to talk to the police. A male sex worker who was almost killed by a client.

It’s a person Steve never thought he would see again. It’s Bucky Barnes.

PLEASE READ THE NOTES!!

The Sound Of You And Me (ao3) - myracingthoughts bucky/wanda M, 92k

Summary: Wanda Maximoff never thought she’d be standing in this line. The one that put her one step closer to a stage —one of the biggest in the world, in fact— as she auditioned for the musical television showdown that was Instant Star.

So, imagine her surprise when she gets paired with one James Barnes as her on-screen mentor. The one mentor she’s honestly never heard of before.

And with his attitude, Wanda kind of wished she could have kept it that way.

SMALL TOWN STRONG

A documentary produced by a friend and CrossFit Coach Dale King. You absolutely must block out 1 1/2 hour and pay close attention. There is much to learn in this movie. Basically it's about a veteran returning home after learning CrossFit in Iraq and opening a gym and finding his hometown is overrun with addicts and homeless people and and using CrossFit to recover them. Along the way he develops several small businesses, like sanitation products needed during Covid, and making Kettlebells, and he employs recovering addicts in these businesses.

Please watch this. It will give you new respect for the value of working out with friends and developing a loving and supportive community.
