How embarrassing for me to press charges against Hoganville for rape, illegal filming of a teenager
I said Tobin, Bell, I did not say Hoganville
That’s not yours, Tobin that’s not yours, Josh
You guys make me sick at my stomach everybody else is trying to clean up the mess not get involved in it
Yeah, well somebody not that motherfucker witless
Knocked 
Moving forward Tobin, we don’t steal from little girls baby and we don’t film them without their permission
Rebecca Cooper that is me honey. I still don’t watch pornography to this day.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Megan doesn’t want to be connected to the low class nature of the confusion because people will generally believe everything they are told so they say well I heard that that guy from that Sikh religion can do anything he wants
That’s about right yeah
But does he has he shot you in the fucking head yet baby?
Didn’t think so sugar britches
And besides, you and your daddy, you don’t have that kind of immunity baby boys
So I don’t think you need to be accidentally falling on Rebecca Cooper’s teenage body because that’s the kind of thing you remember later and you are so horrified
Because that was a little funny, baby joke by my lover

Final thoughts on Death Island.
First, the less serious and sometimes shitpost/meme shit:
spent a not-insignificant amount of this movie distracted by Leon’s body hair, which is not a thing I ever thought I’d say, but sweet Jesus it’s about damn time
RIP Chris’s tiger shirt. that thing ripped easier than one of Hulk Hogan’s tank tops, man.
I get that she’s a BOW or whatever, but it’s never not going to blow my mind that this series gets away with its darling male protagonist (Leon) punching a woman in the face on screen
in fact, it’s kind of wild that Maria’s only purpose for being in this movie is to just hunt Leon for sport. like she’s literally ONLY there to beat his ass. what a fuckin queen.
I’m not saying that it’s canon that Leon and Jill had sex at some point, perhaps multiple times, between RE5 and Death Island. I’m just saying they were very, very chummy and hands-on with each other, and Chris was seemingly absent from Jill’s life for those six years, so.
actually, you know what. there’s a non-zero chance Leon has actually banged the entire recurring cast by this point. except maybe Rebecca. because she’s smarter than the other three.
Leon and Chris are the most married they have ever been, holy shit they are so fucking married
my reaction to Leon repeatedly saying the word “terrorist” in this movie probably should not have been “oooh say it again~” but it was because “this is no ritual. it’s terrorism” is still the single most ridiculous line that has ever come out of that man’s mouth, and I really felt the absence of it in RE4make, so I’m glad its spirit still lives on
Chris is looking old, dude. he’s beat the fuck up.
but so is Leon. when I wasn’t distracted by Leon’s body hair, I was distracted by the lines around his mouth. so, Chris has obvious wrinkles forming around his eyes, and Leon has them forming around his mouth. but the girls are all pristine. mhm.
OK SO IS INFINITE DARKNESS CANON OR NOT BECAUSE DEATH ISLAND REAFFIRMS DEGENERATION AS CANON, BUT ID AND DEGEN CAN’T EXIST IN THE SAME REALITY DON’T MAKE ME PULL OUT THE FUCKING CORKBOARD AGAIN
Now, the more serious actual commentary:
it’s a little nuts to me how I keep seeing people in fandom say that Leon has no hint of depression in this movie. when Dylan is verbally dragging them all while they’re slowly succumbing to the T-Virus, both Chris and Claire clap back with affirmations that they believe in what they’re doing and that they’re doing the right thing. Leon... doesn’t. 
like, Dylan says to him basically “you're stuck in this horrible nightmare that keeps repeating because the people that you fight for put you through it on purpose because it serves their own ends, and it’s got you burnt out, but they just keep using you.” and Leon’s response is basically “I mean, you’re not wrong, but I don't exactly have a choice, so.”
he’s still stuck and trapped and resentful of his position, and he’s reached a point now where he’s just resigned himself to his fate. there’s very much a sense of inevitability about him, which is reinforced at the end when he tells Chris that this is just going to keep happening -- fuckers like Dylan are always going to keep coming back, because they always do.
the man shouldn’t have to be outwardly despairing and visibly drunk for people to pick up on his depressive mindset, but I guess I don’t know what I expected from this fandom.
Leon’s character was actually perfect in this movie. whoever wrote him this time around Gets It. he’s written the way that I write OG Leon and have been writing him for years. his humor-as-a-coping-mechanism is there without being obnoxious (which is where Damnation fucked up), his professionalism is there without being too serious (which is where Degeneration fucked up), his depressive mindset is there without fully consuming him (which is where Vendetta fucked up), and his latent anger at the state of things and at his life in general is there without feeling like it’s dysregulated (which is where Infinite Darkness fucked up).
so, for the anon who asked me what my favorite iteration of Leon is: the answer is Death Island. he is pitch perfect in this movie. straight up.
it did really catch my attention how the movie made it a point to call attention to Leon being burnt out. there’s just something about the way it happened that makes me feel like they’re setting up for Leon’s character to get retired in RE9. I don’t know why I think that, because it makes no sense from a business standpoint for him to be the first of the five to get retired, but. I dunno, man.
the only bit of weirdness in this movie was the whole Chris and Jill thing at the beginning that I already commented on. everything else in this movie was basically perfect. this is the best version of Claire we’ve seen since Code Veronica. like, hands down. Rebecca getting giddy and geeking out over beating the big monster with science could not have been more perfect. everything about Jill was excellent.
like, I have so few things to complain about re: this movie that I’m sitting here going “you know the mocap was kind of wonky in some spots” WHICH IS THE MOST ARBITRARY, NITPICKY SHIT EVER.
but like
I’m just going to throw this out there
but Dylan was super right.
he was so correct in a way that no RE villain has ever been correct ever in the history of this series. I kind of... spent some of this movie actually rooting for him. I was ready for him to kill the crew and wouldn’t have been mad about it if he did; I was like “fuck it, he’s right.” like, I was just sitting there like DRAG LEON AND CHRIS HARDER FOR LITERALLY BEING "THE MAN" DRAG THEIR ASSES FORCE THEM TO FEEL SHAME
in a lot of cases, a story is only as good as its villain, and Dylan being so right was a big part of the reason why this movie worked so well.
Wesker could never.

ada!!! i was thinking about your post with poems you think the lone star characters would love, and for nice ask week i was wondering if you have any others you’d add to that list? or if there’s any you really love that you think capture certain characters/relationships on the show? always love to see your recs :’) <3 —maddie/reyesstrand
Maddie!! I love this question so much so thank you for asking it!! <3
I actually planned to make a part two, especially since it's National Poetry Month, but it got a bit away from me so I'm taking this opportunity to just ramble (godspeed to whoever reads this):
Wild Geese by Mary Oliver is one of the most Carlos-coded poems you'll ever have the pleasure of reading. Or maybe it's not, but after using it as basically a thesis for tender eyes that shine, I've decided that it was written for him. Especially:
You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
Hello?? That's Carlos Tomás Reyes in his purest form!
Oh TK, our hopeless romantic self deprecating boy. I think I'm going to give him Molly Brodak by Molly Brodak, one of my favorite poems that makes me want to burst into tears each and every time I read it. When I think of him, I specifically think of the ending, but I think the whole thing could ring true to him:
I am a good man.  The amount of fear  I am ok with   is insane.   I love many people   who don't love me.   I don't actually know   if that is true.  This is love.   It is a mass of ice  melting. I can't hold   it and I have nowhere   to put it down. 
Nancy is absolutely getting Aileen Wuornos Takes A Lover Home by Olivia Gatwood because it's one of my favorites and Nancy's one of my favorites, it only makes sense! I think the ending would really get to her in a way she didn't expect, and I don't blame her, because this is the ending:
In a phone call tapped by police, Aileen called Tyria her right arm, her left arm, her breath, how all Tyria could say back was Please tell them, please say it out loud. But Aileen didn’t want to talk about it. She wanted to talk about love. So Tyria would hang up, unsuccessful, and the officer would tell her to Say it like this, tell her she’ll get off, tell her it won’t be so bad. But how, each time, for three days straight, the police listened to Aileen talk about love. About her right arm. Her left arm. Her breath. Her breath. Her breath.
Actually going to tag @sznofthesticks because I feel like you would love this poem as well, and you'll agree that Nancy would love it too.
This is cheating but this song is so poetic I'm going to call it a poem. Owen would listen to You Are Your Mother's Child by Conor Oberst and he would want to sob but then he'd get cry lines. I think the whole thing is so Owen-coded but this part especially:
Out on the diamond, and you're up to bat Chewing your Big League, adjusting your hat Taking a swing and hearing it crack Look at that apple fly Tears will dry if you give them time Life's a roller coaster, keep your arms inside Fear, that's a big emotion But you are your mother's child And she'll have you for a while But someday, you'll be grown Then you'll be on your own
You could tell me Judd wrote I Am Offering this Poem under the pseudonym Jimmy Santiago Baca and I'd believe you. I'd believe he wrote while looking at Grace when she wasn't even looking at him because it has Judd all over it like:
Keep it, treasure this as you would if you were lost, needing direction, in the wilderness life becomes when mature; and in the corner of your drawer, tucked away like a cabin or hogan in dense trees, come knocking, and I will answer, give you directions, and let you warm yourself by this fire, rest by this fire, and make you feel safe                         I love you,
That's Judd!
Tommy would adore Every Job Has A First Day by Rebecca Gayle Howell. There's a cozy feeling to it, but the final words hold such a heavy weight that I think Tommy would appreciate and carry with her:
I listened as he taught me to relax the hand just enough. They can smell, he said, the oils our pores release when we tense to catch. You have to believe it, he said. You don’t mean any harm.
Speaking of Rebecca's, Marjan is giving me You Are the Penultimate Love of My Life by Rebecca Hazelton vibes in the best way. Maybe it's the romanticizing of something that has an inevitable ending but I feel like this would be Marjan's approach to a break-up, especially this part:
                                             The garden you plant and I plant                               is tunneled through by voles,                                                              the vowels                                                              we speak aren’t vows,                but there’s something                               holding me here, for now,
I feel like Paul, like me, would love the work of Cameron Awkward Rich, but specifically The Child Formerly Known As____ and even more specifically, the ending:
 & in the end, isn’t that what we all want?                         To not feel so split?                          To carry an image of ourselves                                                 inside ourselves & know exactly what we mean             when we say I—         .                      I—                               .                              I— ?
I think Mate would love getting the chance to read Prayer for Werewolves by Stephanie Burt because I think he would see so much of himself in it. Stumbling and tumbling trying to find himself somewhere and eventually finding the place where he belongs. I also feel like he loves the supernatural and the first part of this poem would feel like a gut punch:
Someone will probably love you for who you are.    If not, you’ll still find friends, friends who, given time, or given warning,    will probably gather around you, hold your hands, and wrap you in soft coats and blankets till the violence    inside your body ends.
Finally, my beloved Grace, is things i want to ask you by Helga Flores because I feel like the poem is just a list of things running through Grace's mind when she only knew Judd by voice, but that first one in particular:
i want to ask you what god feels like.
You've reached the end of my exhaustive essay that would probably keep going if I didn't reign myself in. I hope you liked these, they're some of my favorites <3

Bar none, what is the absolute weirdest and most outlandish conlang you have ever encountered? Dont say javascript pls
First, interesting news! @quothalinguist and I were recently at MIT where they were doing fMRI studies on speakers of conlangs, as well as speakers of other languages, and of people who were taking a look at things that might be like language. Long story short: The brain can't distinguish conlangs from natural languages, but it can distinguish them from music, logic problems, math, and programming languages! So any time you hear anyone say, "But programming languages are languages, too!", apparently our brains don't think so.
So, the craziest conlang I ever saw was a language I followed in Conlang Relay 10 in 2004, and it turns out that the language wasn't outlandish, per se, rather it was produced via means I had to discover, and then it all made sense. It was called Metes, and it was by someone who went by the handle Rodlox.
For those who aren't familiar, a conlang relay is a bit like the game Telephone. User A translates a text into their conlang, then passes the translated text onto User B, who decodes it using a grammar and lexicon provided by User A, then translate it into their own conlang, and passes it on to User C, who does the same. It's loads of fun, because the texts wind up sounding silly by the end of it. Here's an example of the first sentence (just the English translation of it) in the first few turns of this ring of Relay 10:
Original translation in Wenedyk by Jan van Steenbergen: "O dear, what's happened? Yesterday, a pretty young girl came to our home to watch over the baby."
Next translation in Kali-sise by Jeffrey Henning: "O dear, what's happened? Yesterday, a pretty young girl came to our home to watch over the baby."
Next translation in 'Yemls by Jeff Jones: "Oh, $$$$! Has something happened?"
Next translation in Byashrei by Rebecca Harbison: "Alas! Did this really happen?"
Next translation in Proto-Drem by Kevin Urbanczyk: "Did these events just occur? Yes or No?"
So you can see how, little by little, oddities are introduced. I was number 14 in this relay. Here's number 12:
Twelfth translation in Chrol by Apollo Hogan: "'It happened', I won't say. I don't believe this."
A little strange, but still recognizable. Now here's the Metes translation by Rodlox. Now you have to understand: This is their own translation into English of their own text. (And, yes, Rodlox is a native English speaker.)
"Fitted together yesterday", Wary to speak of eternity. Wary now to speak of inquests.
Here's the rest of it:
Spoken of the infant for the year yesterday. Now the female adult relative takes suspiciously, spoken yesterday. Spoken yesterday. To thrive, the suspicious adult female relative works to see! Male adult relative ran stridingly below through the year, male adult relative. Tell now, of the need yesterday. Sing of very nervously conquering supremely yesterday of this day ’s year! Now the demon thrives completely. Related male adult now nervous, wickedly seeing the toothed demon now sticks to conquer. (?) related adult female. Now runs away. To wickedly see - to try to see - demon today completely suspicious now. Inquest - revealing completeness thriving for eternity - now to speak suspiciously. The suspicious adult relative is more suspicious now!, now to take. Fitted together yesterday" surprised by suspicious spirit, hesitant to speak of forever.
I didn't add that question mark: That's their own question mark! That is, even they are not sure what their conlang text means!
But, of course, I didn't even have that to work with. I had this:
"J\qYes-ar", attau'at-tollqW-bartabad. aubartabad-ayer-tollqW-bartabad. J\qYes-teqwos-Yer. ayer-teqWenn-bartabad-*-aWo, J\qYes- tollqW-. J\qYes- tollqW. bell-bartabad-*- aWo-aWoauau. Yer-beCW-J\eub-J\qYes- steIq-@-aWo. ayer-tell, J\qYes-teqWenn. spennd-J\qYes- sWeldsreu-sWeldsreu-WeIq-WeIq-ayer-Yer-Yer. ayer-J\eue-ayer-annnnsu-bell. ayer sWeldsreu-@ - aWo, aubartabad- annnnsu-ayer-tennnnt-steq-WeIq-*-aWo. ayer-apo-beCW. aubartabad-annnnsu-ayer-J\eue-bartabad-auau. aubartabad-J\eue-attau'at-bell- ayer-tollqW-bartabad. bartabad-aWo-aWo-ayer-as-bartabad, ayer-teqWenn. J\qYes-ar-auaubartabad-annnnsu-bartabad, attau'at-tollqW-bartabad.
This looked like absolute gobbledygook to me. I mean, set aside the capital letters, etc.; they're using X-SAMPA, which allows you to type IPA with ASCII; it's supposed to look like that. Instead, look at the distribution of [n]. It occurs either twice in a row or four times in a row. And this isn't a romanization: This is how it's pronounced! You'll also notice [n] never occurs singly.
The grammar notes I was given are here (minus the English translation). Of note, this was the entirety of the grammar:
Metes is neither SVO, VSO, or anything else...it adopts the grammatical sequence of the speaker -- I might say something in VSO, but you could reply in SVO or any other form, and neither of us would be violating Metes grammar.
Linking forms
Male - /schwa/ @  Female - /macron/ *  Impolite - /^/ ^
'Impolite' refers to items and subjects (such as porcupines) too dangerous, & (such as babies) where custom overrides grammar (the Metes consider it to be bad luck - in the most extreme way - to inquire as to a newborn's gender).
This is nice information, to be sure, but woefully incomplete when it comes to translating a text in a language you've never encountered before. The lexicon was equally baffling. Here's a short sample:
WORD (in X-SAMPA) _=_ Original Definition . Metes-specific definitions
amb _=_ Around .  annnn _=_ On .  annnnq _=_ Tight, painfully constricted, painful .  annnnsu _=_ Spirit, demon .  annnnt _=_ Front, forehead .  annnnatuh _=_ worn on forehead .  annnnatuann _=_ (?) on forehead .  apo _=_ Off, away .  apoJ\annnnu _=_ send away {be rid of} a demon .  apotannnnsu _=_ off demon/spirit (mistranslation or religious name?) .  ar- _=_ To fit together .  arq _=_ To shine; white; the shining or white metal, silver .  ararq _=_ to fit together metals {welding? mosaics?} . 
A lot of these words never appear in the text. The thing that blew me away were the question marks. I was like, "You created this! Why are you asking me?!"
The translation was utterly baffling. The first sentence, for example, is:
"J\qYes-ar", attau'at-tollqW-bartabad.
If you go to the lexicon and replace the relevant elements with meanings, that comes out to:
"Yesterday-to-fit-together", beyond-a-year-to-speak-hairy good-something-suspicious-something-that-is-suspected-to-not-be-as-good-as-it-should/might-be.
Combine that with the grammar above, and...what is that?
I did my best to finesse some sort of meaning out of this text, but it utterly baffled me. The things that kept me spiraling were the question marks, as if the creator didn't know what some of this stuff meant, the refusal to give anything a fixed, simple definition, and the bizarre sequences of consonants, with so many occurring two in a row, four in a row... Something was off here, and I couldn't figure it out.
I was stuck on this word "bartabad" that was partially defined as "hairy". It reminded me of the PIE word that ultimately gave us "beard". I did some poking around, and then I found a list online of PIE roots in rough alphabetical order that corresponded in meaning very closely with the list of words in the Metes lexicon.
And that's when I figured out what happened.
Metes essentially uses PIE roots with reconstructed meanings and has sound changes applied, where the "sound change" is a simple find-and-replace that you can do in a word processor.
So, for example, if *h₂enǵʰ- is a root for "tight" or "compressed", you replace h2 (or h generally) with zero, en is replaced by an, ǵʰ is replaced by q, and somewhere along the line, there was a find-and-replace error that caused all the duplication in consonants to happen. There were question marks about what the meanings were, because it wasn't clear what these things would mean if they were put together! It was essentially someone building a conlang based on things they heard others doing without perfectly understanding exactly what they had done. It was all done systematically, but not in a way that would produce something one could identify as a consistent language.
So yeah, that was the biggest head trip for me when looking at a conlang. But sometimes not perfectly understanding how something works allows you to produce something that is absolutely wild—something that no one could create on purpose if they tried. And that's why, almost 20 years later, I still remember Metes. It's made more of an impression than a lot of other conlangs that were technically better. It was something!

The Stark Who Loved Me
by Girl_Back_There, gonetoarcadia
It’s 1814 and Captain Steven Rogers joined the army to provide for his adoptive sister Miss Jamie Rebecca “Becky” Barnes following the death of their parents. Although she’d prefer to run away to join the army too, instead she decides to do what will guarantee to bring him home and provide for both of them: marry.
The Viscount Anthony Stark is a known Rake and prefers it that way, but he can feel the clock counting down until he needs to produce an heir to inherit everything. With the Stark estate in jeopardy, he’s running out of both time and options. If he has to, then who better than the diamond of the season, Miss Barnes? The only hitch: her overbearing, troublesome brother. Her extremely handsome, overbearing, troublesome brother.
Nothing is simple in the game of courtship, especially when the most dangerous thing of all becomes involved: falling in love.

Hey, I don't know if you know but one of the wonderful people I'm dating is @dragonsaffron and I love her so much and not to mention she's an amazing author, an absolute masterclass in writing gay shit, lemme show you
So let's start with her two standalone works, the first is Earthborn Emissary
Imagine: You're a regular dorky teen boy with a girlfriend and a stoner best friend and you find out you're not human, but an alien genocide survivor whose life cycle has them basically puppate as the species they grow around in their childhood and adolescence before turning into their cute adorably buggy selves! And the people who tried to genocide your people have found you, and you and your two gay moms have to book it off of Earth! It's great, it's funny, the teenagers feel like teenagers, there's alien bug weed involved, the gay moms are Han and Leia, go read it!
Next up is The Chained Flame, which is based on the Lyndworm myth if you're unfamiliar and it is very gender and very cool
And then there's the Selene series. We're up to book three, it is my favorite of hers. Marcus Farrier, a regular college student on Earth gets struck by lightning and awakens in another world. A world that's a play on the classic pulp fiction trope of "woman planet." There's only women on Selene! But don't worry, it's not gender essentialist, there are basically phisiologically intersex trans women present even if they're cis women and pregnancy is weird, but all that is irrelevant to the base idea of Steampunk Lesbian Planet!
Oh and Marcus wakes up in the body of a woman and starts going by Emma and doesn't seem bothered by the body or the name at all, more guilty about "deceiving" people, but this world's languages don't even have the word for men so what do you expect. We're on book three now, going from Swords to Snows to Wolves. You will not regret taking the time to read them
She's also got a Patreon you should give a look because there's smut there for patrons

Rebecca (1940, Alfred Hitchcock)
21/01/2024
Rebecca is a 1940 film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, based on the novel Rebecca, the first wife by Daphne du Maurier, Winner of two Oscars, including best film.
Chosen as the opening film of the first Berlin International Film Festival in 1951, in 1940 the National Board of Review of Motion Pictures included it in the list of the ten best films of the year.
In Monte Carlo a young lady-in-waiting, whose name we eill never know, meets and marries the rich and aristocratic Massimo de Winter. He is the widower of his first wife, Rebecca, with whom he lived in Manderley Castle, England, a sumptuous manor overlooking a rocky coast. Rebecca died when the yacht sank and was buried in the family chapel after her husband recognized her body.
This is the first film shot in the USA by Hitchcock for producer David O. Selznick.
The story told in the film follows Daphne du Maurier's novel of the same name quite faithfully, differing only slightly in some details. For example, to comply with the Hays Code, Hitchcock had to change the story of Rebecca's death: in her book Max claims to have shot her, in the film instead he says he hit her and accidentally made her fall onto a pulley. One of the salient features of the work which was maintained in the film adaptation is the fact that the central character of the young de Winter, played by Joan Fontaine, does not have a name, and this emphasizes the contrast with Mrs de Winter, the possible for Miss Danvers.
The writer Michael Hogan, Joan Harrison, the director's secretary and screenwriter, and Robert Sherwood, who worked on the final part, collaborated on the screenplay. Philip MacDonald worked on the dialogues.
Among the actress who auditioned for the role of Mrs De Winter were Loretta Young, Margaret Sullavan, Vivien Leigh and Anne Baxter. Joan Fontaine, the twenty-two years old, was chosen and she turned out to be perfect in that part: sweet and intelligent, modest and shy, scared and insecure, in love and tenacious; Hitchcock also wanted her as the protagonist in the film Suspicion.

Judith Anderson and Joan Fontaine in Rebecca (Alfred Hitchcock, 1940) Cast: Joan Fontaine, Laurence Olivier, Judith Anderson, George Sanders, Reginald Denny, Nigel Bruce, C. Aubrey Smith, Gladys Cooper, Florence Bates, Melville Cooper, Leo G. Carroll. Screenplay: Robert E. Sherwood, Joan Harrison, Philip MacDonald, Michael Hogan, based on a novel by Daphne Du Maurier. Cinematography: George Barnes. Art direction: Lyle R. Wheeler, William Cameron Menzies. Music: Franz Waxman. Rebecca is a very good movie. Would it have been a better one if Alfred Hitchcock, directing his first American film, had been left alone by the producer, David O. Selznick, an incurable micromanager? That's the question that lingers, especially since Hitchcock later expressed some dissatisfaction with the film. It does mostly lack the director's sense of humor, except  in the scene in which the horrid Mrs. Van Hopper (Florence Bates) snuffs a cigarette in a jar of cold cream, a gag Hitchcock liked so much that he used it again 15 years later in To Catch a Thief, in which the substitute ashtray is a fried egg. The differences between Hitchcock and Selznick largely lay in the realm of editing, in which Selznick loved to dabble, insisting that scenes be shot from various camera angles to give him latitude in the editing room. Hitchcock was a famous storyboarder, working out scenes and planning camera setups well in advance of the actual shooting -- "editing in the camera," as it's usually called. The story would probably also have been very different in the Hitchcock version: According to one source, the original version suggested by Hitchcock began on shipboard, with various people being seasick. Selznick, however, liked to stick closely to the novels on which he based his films: The opening title, for example, refers to the movie as a "picturization" of Daphne Du Maurier's bestseller. (This was doubtless a comfort to Du Maurier, who hated Hitchcock's version of her novel Jamaica Inn (1939) -- but then so did Hitchcock, and both of them were right to do so.) The glory of Rebecca lies mostly in its performances. Although Laurence Olivier never makes Maxim de Winter a fully credible character -- I think he felt he was slumming, doing the film only to be near Vivien Leigh, and disgusted when Selznick didn't cast her as the second Mrs. de Winter -- he was always a watchable actor, even when he wasn't doing a great job of it. Joan Fontaine is almost perfect in her role, making credible the crucial character switch, when she stops being shy and stands up to Mrs. Danvers. And Hitchcock must have loved working with the gaggle of British character actors who had flocked to Hollywood and populate all the supporting roles.

I've found the best characters for my AEW/WWE Fan-Fiction stories, I got the main boys from the Vampire Diaries and the Originals, and got the three married wives and a former girlfriend turned friend.
We know that most of the wrestlers here will be faces or heels, but I want them as the baddest bosses while the good guys are gonna be portrayed as sixteen newcomers who's shorter.
I got Jordan "Dan" Sweeto, Kayleigh "Wolfy" Smyth | Wolfychu, Patrick "Patty" Walters, Dorothy "Dottie" Martin, Johnnie Guilbert, Alexandria "Alex" Dorame, James Tyler Hagen, Shannon "Shan" Taylor, Nathan "Nate" Owens, Leda "Monster Bunny" Muir, Damon "Dee" Fizzy, Carson Fanikos, Luke Jeydon Wale, Samantha "Sam" Rochelle, Kyle David Hall, and Meghan Marie Hogan for the OC portrayals cause I like people within the goth/punk/emo/scene style.
I figured that modern day of straight history meets attitude era for their bad influence; my sixteen OCs doesn't care for the rules and are the most rebellious people in WWE.
This takes place from SummerSlam 2012 for the Fallen Angels and their first victory in Night of Champions: Gold Rush; Survivor Series 2012 for the Shield and their first victory in TLC; Royal Rumble 2013 for the Dark Gods and their first victory in Elimination Chamber; WrestleMania 29 for the Resistance and their first victory in Extreme Rules; they're known as the Pack of Lone Wolves.
For each OC stable...their names are the following; the Unholy Circle for the girls, the Genesis for the girls, the Blood Order for the boys, and the Demolition for the boys; they're the Pride of Wild Lions.
Comment down on ring names for my OCs and follow me at Wattpad on GlampireRockstar...sayonara guys!

by Girl_Back_There, gonetoarcadia
It’s 1814 and Captain Steven Rogers joined the army to provide for his adoptive sister Miss Jamie Rebecca “Becky” Barnes following the death of their parents. Although she’d prefer to run away to join the army too, instead she decides to do what will guarantee to bring him home and provide for both of them: marry.
The Viscount Anthony Stark is a known Rake and prefers it that way, but he can feel the clock counting down until he needs to produce an heir to inherit everything. With the Stark estate in jeopardy, he’s running out of both time and options. If he has to, then who better than the diamond of the season, Miss Barnes? The only hitch: her overbearing, troublesome brother. Her extremely handsome, overbearing, troublesome brother.
Nothing is simple in the game of courtship, especially when the most dangerous thing of all becomes involved: falling in love.
