Main characters as suspects in a murder investigation:
Tinka: would come forward as a witness during a canvas, inquire very concernedly about the victim and worry for her own safety. If any evidence has been linked to her, she'd get distressed to the point that the detectives have to comfort her. Will always pivot to being a victim or used by others.
Laika: will heavily complain about having to come in, mock the detectives about their lack of progress and would point them to evidence that throws them off her scent. Detectives will want to arrest her for obstruction of justice and insult of an officer, but nothing will stick. She will threaten to sue.
Sam: will be questioned as a Person of Interest in one of the first rounds, as he's very loud and will have had some questionable contact. However, will throw the interview halfway through by confessing to an embarrassing crime which he begs to keep secret from his mother and colleagues. This confession will make all evidence tying him for the murder look circumstantial. Neither crime can be absolutely proven.
Sophia: will offer to help by answering questions, but with her lawyer present and will claim diplomatic immunity as soon as questioning turns accusatory. Good day to you, Detective.
Julian: will be verrry skeptical, quizzing the detectives on their investigation, manipulating them towards the scapegoat he prepared. Will question if they have followed procedure for the evidence regarding him, to the point that their supervisor will want a review. Next time you want to talk to him, you'll have to contact his lawyer.
Olav: very friendly, will give some perspective on the victim that gives about seventy people motive for him. Will react very sad at seeing any photos, and say that any loss of life is very sad, and he hopes the victim found some peace. Olav was actually enjoying a walk with his cousin during the time of the murder, you can ask him. Will comment on that the detective looks very tired, if they ever need someone to talk to, here's his office number

Sanctuary (Anthology)
Tumblr media
Read time: 2 Days Rating: 5/5
Edited by Carol Shaughnessy Contains contributions by: Sherrilyn Kenyon/McQueen, Sheri-Lynn Marean, Rachel Hailey, Nicki Nance, Kris Kellen, Kimberly Forrest, T. Elizabeth Guthrie, L.J. Sealy, Sam Brenton, Jennifer Forist, Jennifer Becker, Cathy Graham and Kim May
This is a book that I never knew I needed but absolutely did. Sherrilyn McQueen's Paladins are some of the most supportive people (mostly women) I've ever been around. This shows they also use their creativity well and clearly know their source material. Sanctuary is a collection of fanfictions written by Paladins centred on the titular Sanctuary bar and grill. Sanctuary itself is one of the most popular places in the Dark Hunter world. Everyone is welcome there just don't try anything stupid. Or as Kim May phrases it in A Fox With New Fur “Don’t start no shit and there won’t be no shit.”
What is interesting is the similarities and differences between the stories and their interpretations of the world. The biggest similarity between most of the stories is the use of Dev. While canonically the quads (except maybe Remi) and Fang rotate door duty so many of writers choose to use Dev the humorous and most recognisable Quad as an outsiders first introduction to Sanctuary. Also commonly if there was a character with an existing relationship with the bar it is nearly always the male. The other thing that I missed until I started writing this review, there are few if any Dark Hunter OCs. They are all Weres or other supernaturals.
The order of the stories is good. Choosing what was first and last was the most important for Carol Shaughnessy. Her choices of Dragon Heart Awakened by Sheri-Lynn Marean and A Fox With New Fur by Kim May respectively are effective choices. Dragon Heart Awakened is heavily romantic and echoes Sherrilyn McQueen's writing so well. Enemies to lovers with a twist, honestly it is an enjoyable start. Kim May's Megumi is one of the characters out of her element entirely and A Fox With New Fur is not a romantic story. It is just Megumi reclaiming her life. This is one for fans. Only fans will appreciate this. But you must remember reading that these are only interpretations of our beloved Hunterverse, they may or may not align with your perception of it.
The Legend of Sanctuary by Sherrilyn Kenyon
And I will leave everyone with one small reminder. These are fan stories, written by fans. While I gave them the ability to write in my world, what they have done isn’t necessarily Dark-Hunter canon. This book exists outside of the time line of the Dark-Hunters. And I hope all of you enjoy our little side adventure. Hugs!
This is the forward. The story of Sanctuary, the reasons Sherri chose to include the bar and an introduction to the anthology itself. Honestly, I really like the legend behind Sanctuary, why the Peltiers set it up. It really is one of the best known and popular stories in the Hunterverse.
Dragon Heart Awakened by Sheri-Lynn Marean
“I understand, and apology accepted. Love makes us do things we normally wouldn’t. How did this vendetta arise anyway?” “It started when a crazy ancestor of mine cursed all of dragonkind.” Aimee shook her head. “No one can ever simply get along, can they?” “Not in my experience,” — Aimee Peltier and Evany
Evany and Sawyer are great creations. Evany feels like every inch a Sherri heroine, intelligent and protective. Sawyer is a strong male who does need something even if he's not sure what. I could see him being from the mould of a Hellchaser. The whole thing feels very much like the princess saves herself, but I'm glad we don't go into the dark parts right before the end. It would be so hard to do justice do in such a limit word count. It was a strong choice to start on.
Brave by Rachel Hailey
“My mom is going to kill me.” “Yeah, been there, done that, and bled on the t-shirt.” Hannah twisted around to find a tall guy with jet-black, wavy hair leaning against the bar. He regarded her with eyes of deep jade. “What?” “I'm pretty sure my mom made attempted murder a holiday tradition. It's good to know my family isn't the only one that puts the fun in dysfunctional.” She shook her head with a light laugh. “Definitely can relate to that.” He sank to a stool next to her with a dazzling smile that displayed two deep dimples. “I'm Kearse.” — Hannah and Kearse
Okay, I need to start this by saying I really like the doll nickname Kearse uses for Hannah and I'm not even entirely certain why. It just suits him and I kinda feel like it suits New Orleans too. Brave isn't an out-and-out romance story. Brave not only relates to how Hannah is with Kearse, the lines between them but for the start. This is a demigod, Hannah coming into her own, protecting the innocent with her life and empowering herself. Kearse is a Sherri man to his core, amusing, kinda flirty, he wants her and knows she is his mate but respects her beyond all things. I like the ending. It gives a solid end and understanding to Kearse's story.
Mourning Shadows by Nicki Nance
“You’re gorgeous, Shem. I couldn’t pull my eyes away.” She reached forward and handed him the blue bundle she was now fisting, then she stepped back. “Welcome to my world. I’ve been looking at you that way since I was 15.” — Masciarina and Shem
This is one of my faves in the collection. It plays the world in an interesting way. Assuming I interpereted the signposts correctly, it's an alternate timeline. Shem and Mar are both wonderful. Shem is the one who twists the world on its head. Mar just makes some interesting adjustments to the characters. We do get one surprising get appearance.
Dreaming of New Orleans by Kris Kellen
“That’s an understatement. Let’s see, how to put this. I’m the friendly one,” he paused as both Aimee and Quinn laughed. Glaring at them he continued. “Cherif, you haven’t met him yet, he’s the oldest and acts it, Quinn over there is the quiet one, and, well, Rem is the grumpy one.” Looking at her he shook his head, “Remi doesn’t talk to people, not if he can help it. So, him sharing about the family, yeah, that seems weird to us.” — Dev Peltier
This takes the let Remi be happy idea and runs with it, and I couldn't be happier about it. Remi deserves happiness, I needed someone to write this. Canonically Remi is only in love with Quinn's mate Becca not a spurned male. He just needs to find the right woman/female to help. Leading lady MacKenzie Galanis is a brilliant choice. She feels like the daughter of a Dream Hunter, my fave of the Hunters. It was a pleasure to see Max, so many people forget about him. The ending of this fic will possibly be slightly controversial, even if the whole concept is not.
Hot Wings and Howlers by Kimberly Forrest
“I guess a lot of people around here have a thing for Artemis.” It had been said more to herself than for Simi, but the woman scowled blackly, muttering, “Nasty old heifer goddess.” Taken aback by the vitriol behind that statement, Jack repeated, “Heifer goddess?” “Artemis,” Simi confirmed grumpily. “She a mean old heifer. The Simi hates her.” — Jackelyn “Jack” Phillips and Simi
In some ways this has clever framing, the Eric that is mentioned as a cousin is from Chronicles of Nick. Maudaug's brother, Tabby's boyfriend. I forgot that he was a Squire though I don't know for who. This one is so short and deceptively simple. It has no romantic subplot just someone auditioning to join the Howlers part-time. What little magic is in play is the standard Were stunning the human. Though it's really nice to see Tori getting a mention. Forrest does a brilliant job capturing the voice of the Simi.
The Fugitive Jackal by T. Elizabeth Guthrie
Kenzie’s first thought was how tall and wide the man in front of her was. He looks like a tank. A very yummy tank. Falling back on her training, she realized he had to stand well over six feet tall. “Yummm,” purred her instantly horny witch. — Kenzie
Colt seems popular with fans as the hero, he has more than a little chemistry with Kenzie (another Kenzie?). What I really do like about this is the language Guthrie chooses to use. Kenzie is more than a little sassy and has a great observation of Fang, Colt is brilliantly written in his confusion and Fang is perfectly captured his humour (but Fang, Fang, Fang don't piss off your mate). I was honestly not sure how to feel about this story. It tells the story it needs to tell and it is a wonderful use of a bounty hunter, those we know are hunting Weres and were-Jackals (we've known some over the years why do I feel like they are all idiots?).
Ravaged Angel by Mary E Jung
A famous biker bar known to most locals, it stood resolute under the moonlight, as if daring deadly beasts to crawl out of the darkness and step over its threshold. By the scent of danger in the air, Melody would venture that gauntlet was picked up more times than not. — Melody
This is a sweet fic featuring demigod Melody and Wereleopard Angel, the lead singer of The Howlers. Melody is a haunted and hunted woman, hunted by Apollo (woo 😒). I could have used a couple of quotes from Ravaged Angel. Their relationship is so soft. I like seeing the empowerment that comes with being defended in Sanctuary's walls, the power that Melody gains from seeing people caring for her. Total respect to Jung for using Angel in a personal context, away from the stage.
Sanctuary by Carrie Humphrey
Kedah opened one eye, knowing that if she opened both, she would officially be awake and wasn’t ready to commit to that nonsense. — Kedah
To me this is possibly the weakest of the 14 stories. It's a vampire and mate meeting the members of the Peltier family for the first time and offering her services to fix a problem. It is one of if not the only story set pre-Bad Moon Rising, Nicolette and Papa Bear are still around and running Sanctuary. It's great to see Nicolette again. I do like the writing though, there are some fantastic quotes. But the story just leaves me wanting something, like it should be longer, like there are chapters missing.
One Fated Night by L.J. Sealy
Clara’s cheeks heated as she became aware that he was watching her. The fact he hadn’t uttered a word, as if he were happy for her eyes to roam his body, made her heart race. When her gaze met his heavy stare for a moment, she froze. — Clara
I like One Fated Night as a take. Heroine Clara is a Wolfswan on the run from a future she desperately doesn't want, from an abusive man, an abusive future. Hero Axe is a lone wolf who steps in to save her despite being on the way out of the town. After Axe is beaten badly Clara saves him in return. They are both alone in the world but seeing Axe rebel against the bitches work though is something I liked to see. That panic just makes so much sense. I don't think it's something we see it enough.
Valentine's Day at Sanctuary by Sam Brenton
“Poor thing went through absolute hell. We're glad she's out on the other side of that horror." Angela smiled at Ash shyly when he didn't say anything. "Sorry. I just realized how much I rambled. I tend to do that when I'm excited.” — Angela
My lord is this fun. Brenton makes a very bold choice, they choose to write through the eyes of one Acheron Parthenopaeus. His night starts off normal, moves to odd then gets downright insane. It plays heavily with the fourth wall and what would happen if Sherri's characters, specifically Ash with his darkest of dark past and remit to protect the Dark Hunters found out about Sherri's writing.
New Beginnings by Jennifer Forist
“I know you feel what I feel,” he nuzzled his nose against my neck, sending bolts of electricity coursing through my body. “If you think I’m letting my future mate deal with two losers without me—well, we need to get to know each other better.” — Cassian 'Cash'
Oh, this is desperately sweet. I love the protective nature of some were females. Aimee being the badass bear swan we know she is, doing the us females gotta stick together thing with the hurting werewolf. Heroine Satara protecting the lovely Grace, who really needs it. But you know still taking time to check out Cash as he defended her (can't let a good opportunity go to waste). The whole idea of a pack protecting those most vulnerable in the wolf community appealed to me. Forist chooses to give Cash an interesting fear, I like that humanising feature.
From Her Darkest Dreams by Jennifer Becker
He was like a giant stuffed animal curled up next to her, his back to her front. She doubted he would appreciate being called a stuffed animal, though. Men didn’t like to be considered cute and cuddly. — Delphi Sideris
The story of Thrax Gataki a katagarian black panther and Delphi Sideris an oracle. Oracles are not something I see a lot in the fandom but I like the way she is used here. It plays a lot with the tropes of the series. A couple of comments with the name Thrax it feels like Jennifer Becker might also be a fan of The League series Thrax is so close to Thrāix (pronounced Thrace). Also something so, so League is the use of “νεράιδα” (Fairy) as a term of endearment from Thrax to Delphi. Becker is the only one that includes this element.
Falcon's Flight by Cathy Graham
“Who is Savitar? I don’t recognise him as a Were.” Skye looked at Cane. “Savitar is… well he just is.” — Skye Falconi and Cane Whitethunder
Oh I like this one. I like the use of jumping through time to create a complicated family, the idea of the perpetual parents meddling with the children and the idea of a family having a surprising gift from the gods. Cane is our link to the canonical Dark-Hunterverse as the son of Sanctuary doctor/vet Carson, though he himself isn't canon. Skye is sweet and kinda innocent which is always welcome. The plot itself is just kinda amusing. The whole story is lovely. Also that Savitar quote is just fair. What else can we say about Savitar at least until Sherri gifts us a backstory (🥳Which OMG is actually happening😍).
A Fox With New Fur by Kim May
“He some kind of demon?” She nodded. “Oni. He’s been hunting me.” “What did you do to piss him off?” “I rejected him.” “Seriously?” Megumi reclaimed her drink and took another sip. “He’s yakuza. One day he saw me walking down the street and he decided that he had to have me. I said no. When he persisted, I fought back, but he didn’t get the hint. That’s when I broke his neck. His rage and crimes were sufficient to instantly turn him into a demon. and he’s been stalking me ever since.” — Colt and Megumi
With kitsune Megumi as the main character and an Oni as the main villain, I appreciate Kim May's choice to include another pantheon that I have only seen in maybe Chronicles of Nick (if I remember my CoN lore correctly). Though there might be a spark of something between Megumi and Colt that is not the point of the piece. The primary point is Megumi reclaiming her freedom and her life from the man who has been hunting her. And what a way to get it. I honestly do appreciate it as a way to end. So much of Sherri's writing is about female empowerment, something at May manages to capture so well.
Read for @godzilla-reads​ Simple Reading Challenge. Filling the May August prompt: "Read a Short Story/ Essay Collection" As soon as I saw this prompt and this book I knew I had to read it. Sherrilyn McQueen is one of if not my favourite author. Her fandom, the Paladins is one of the most supportive I've been in. This even exists needs to be promoted.

John and Maggie Brenton -Human Hunters
You know how in the Ghost Zone, Humans are the Ghosts well that got me thinking what would happen to ghost hunters who became ghosts.
Allow me to set the scene
….
The students of Casper High are going on a field trip to the Ghost Zone via the Fenton Portal and Specter Speeder. They run into trouble and get lost in the zone.
(I know this has been done to death but bear with me)
They all get flung into a corner of the zone that Team Phantom has never explored before. While trying to find there way home the Casper High Class run into John and Maggie Brenton-Human Hunters.
Now John and Maggie are basically the embodiments of what could happen to Jack and Maddie if they became ghosts. John and Maddie are so obsessed with ghost hunting it became their obsession in death. Since they couldn’t accept the fact they where now the very ghosts they feared/hates/hunted they have convinced themselves that ghosts are humans and humans are ghosts, this in not helped by the fact humans have intangibility in the zone. Now this pair of anti-Fentons/nega-Fentons/whatever are chasing the class through the zone trying to rip them molecule by molecule.
While on the run the humans find themselves in different ghostly areas like Undergrowth’s Lair (how will Sam react?) and the land of the dead of Ancient Egypt (will Tucker be Pharaoh?). They could meet various new characters from mythology, history, and straight out fiction (this is the infinite realms the possibilities are infinite)
All the while the Fentons have to deal with the fact they are now on the other end of the Bazooka as well as the fact that most of their theories about ghosts are wrong and the evidence is all around them. What’s worse is discovering their 14+ year old son and his friends know more about ghosts than they ever dreamed.
How are the humans going to make it back to the Fenton Portal without being dissected by human hunting ghosts or revealing Danny’s powers.
….
 potential DP tropes include; Everlasting Trio, Defect Quartet, Wes Weston, Ghost King Danny, Ghost Baby Danny, Little Baby Man, Liminal Team Phantom, Liminal Amity Park, Fenton Parents A+ Parenting, Reveal Gone Wrong, Reveal Gone Right, Pharaoh Tuck, Plant Sam, Vivisection/Dissection fic, and many more

♫ Gimme Little Sign ♫ (Redux)
I know … I played this one just over two years ago, but when it crossed my radar this evening, I just couldn’t get it out of my head and I’ve been singing it (much to the chagrin of my girls) and even almost kinda-sorta dancing to it, so … time to share the joy with you guys!  There really isn’t much trivia about this song, oddly. I’m taking you back to 1967 tonight … 54 years … wow … where have…

Sleeping Beauty Spring: "Maleficent" (2014 film)
Tumblr media
This reimagining of Disney's Sleeping Beauty was conceived in 2003, as Disney's answer to the recent success of the musical Wicked. Due to various delays, it didn't premiere until 2014, but it's clearly a spiritual sister to Wicked all the same, with a famous villainess re-conceived a sympathetic protagonist. It features a screenplay by Linda Woolverton (Beauty and the Beast, Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland), and stars Angelina Jolie as the "evil" fairy of the title.
The opening scene introduces two neighboring enemy lands: a mundane human kingdom, and the beautiful Moors, where magical creatures dwell. We meet Maleficent as a happy, innocent fairy child, who flies through the Moors on her majestic wings. When a poor orphan boy named Stefan ventures in from the human realm, Maleficent befriends him, and as they grow up, they become lovers. But then the humans' ruthless King Henry wages new war against the fair folk. His soldiers are no match for Maleficent's magic, and in battle she mortally wounds the king. So on his deathbed, he decrees that whoever kills Maleficent will be his heir. Tragically, Stefan (Sharlto Copley) gives in to ambition – though he can't bring himself to kill Maleficent, he burns off her wings as she sleeps, then presents them as proof of her "death." Maleficent's despair at this brutal betrayal gradually becomes hard, cold bitterness, and she crowns herself the queen of the Moors, an enemy to all humans. Meanwhile, she gains a servant and spy named Diaval (Sam Riley) – a raven whom she can change to a man, or any other animal, at her will.
When Diaval informs her that King Stefan has fathered a child, Princess Aurora, Maleficent seizes her chance for revenge. Unlike the original Maleficent, however, she doesn't curse Aurora to die when she pricks her finger, but to fall into an endless sleep from which only true love's kiss can wake her; the last part is meant as mockery, because neither Maleficent nor Stefan believe in true love anymore. Accordingly, Stefan hides his baby daughter in the care of the only three fairies he trusts: Knotgrass (Imelda Staunton), Flittle (Leslie Manville), and Thistlewit (Juno Temple), this film's equivalents of Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. And from here on, he devotes his life to waging war against Maleficent, who surrounds the Moors with a forest of gigantic, impenetrable briars.
Unlike in Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent easily finds the cottage where the fairies raise Aurora. But Knotgrass, Flittle, and Thistlewit are much stupider than Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather, and inept as foster mothers. Despite Maleficent's insistence that she hates the little "beastie," she and Diaval secretly watch over Aurora, ensuring that she lives to the age of sixteen, and over the years, Maleficent finds herself warming toward the innocent, brave young princess. Eventually, she spirits Aurora (now played by Elle Fanning) into the Moors for regular visits, and they form a close bond, with Aurora thinking Maleficent is her fairy godmother.
On her sixteenth birthday, Aurora resolves to leave her three silly "aunties" and live in the Moors. The same day, she also meets the handsome Prince Phillip (Brenton Thwaites). But when she announces her choice to leave, the fairies reveal her true identity and tell her about the curse. Now believing Maleficent to be evil, the distraught Aurora goes to her father's castle. There, the curse's hypnotic power takes effect and leads Aurora to the fateful spindle.
In desperation, Maleficent spirits Phillip to the castle, where the silly fairies urge him to kiss the sleeping Aurora. But his kiss doesn't wake her: his crush on her isn't "true love" because they only just met. After the others leave, however, the grieving Maleficent approaches Aurora's bedside and kisses her forehead. This kiss of true motherly love breaks the spell. (A twist that might have been even more effective if Disney hadn't already used a similar twist in its latest animated success, Frozen.)
But there's still a villain to defeat, as Stefan's army attacks Maleficent. Though she briefly fights them off by turning Diaval into a dragon, the soldiers soon overpower them. That is, until Aurora finds Maleficent's severed wings and frees them to fly back to her. With her power of flight restored, Maleficent triumphs, and the battle ends with Stefan falling to his death from a tower. Maleficent then removes her briars from the Moors and gives up her throne to Aurora, who unites the human and fairy realms in joy and peace.
While I understand why this film had mixed reviews, I understand its popularity too. It's a visually stunning production, with an atmosphere that perfectly balances darkness with enchantment. And while the screenplay has some uneven characterization, in general it's an engaging new spin on an old story. As for Angelina Jolie she embodies this version of Maleficent in all her dignity, ferocity, wry wit, and complexity. That said, she never captures the sheer gravitas and charisma that Eleanor Audley's voice and Marc Davis's animation gave the original Maleficent. No matter what its fans might claim, this film can't replace the artistry of the animated Sleeping Beauty. I especially dislike the reduction of the three good fairies, the original film's true heroines, into obnoxious idiots.
Still, for an epic, creative reimagining of an iconic Disney villainess's story, Maleficent is very much worth seeing.

Secrets
they've been ingesting vervain as a means to get stronger but it’s taking a toll on their health
they've been ingesting wolfsbane as a means to get stronger but it’s taking a toll on their health
they killed themselves in order to become a vampire to feel closer to their family
they killed someone in order to become a werewolf to feel closer to their mother
they triggered their vampire and werewolf gene when they got into an accident with their friend/ex
they accidentally killed their partner and want to resurrect them because of the guilt and pain they feel
they want to create their own wolf pack and become the new alpha of all the wolves
they put their magic inside of an object and hid it away because they wanted to just feel human
they want to create their own coven and be the most powerful witch
they resent Hope for being the reason that Elijah sacrificed himself
they resent Hope for being the reason that Hayley sacrificed herself
they resent Hope for being the first born, feeling like they don't matter as much compared to her
they want to find a way to remove their werewolf gene
they want to find a way to remove their vampire gene
they want to find a way to remove their magic
they want to find a way to leave Mystic Falls and New Orleans so that they don’t have to be trapped with their family anymore
they're using themselves as a human blood bag, getting a high off of it
when they turn into a vampire they plan to drain Elena of the cure, even if it means her death
they plan to sacrifice themselves if it means that they’re free from this world
they want to rebuild the strix and become their leader
they hate being a Mikaelson because of the pressure the names holds over it
they're creating magically enhanced drugs and selling them
If you need more suggestions with anything we're more than happy to give more!
