🦇 Happy Halloween🦇
I didn’t really had any ideas to celebrate but Léopoldine looks cute as a plague nurse ^-^
Her advice of the season is : if you don’t have a pumpkin to decorate your home, any red hair will do just fine. Please don’t follow her dubious advice, she doesn’t even have any medical degree to properly back up her idea.

Holy hell. This lawyer actually tried to claim that shooting a black FexEd driver was justified because the driver was in the shooter's neighborhood after the sun went down.
I didn't think that in 2023 a lawyer would speak out publicly as pro-sundown-town. But here we are constantly returning to new lows.

Thinking hard on this….
I don’t think I had any female friends in Colorado that had NOT been assaulted or battered by a man. Like 95% of my patients reported this too. I had a coworker at FedEx where the husband would get drunk and shoot at her.
Maybe we need to bring back lynch mobs. I’m just sayin’ that’s a lot of abuse, that’s all.

Shout out to my FedEx driver today who had the gumption to shoot his shot and was by far the politest man to ever ask my number. I hope he does not beat himself up too much that my reply was “sweetheart I’m married.”
You tried, you were polite about it, and I hope you find the chubby unkept woman of your dreams.

The Pulse shooting happened when I was a teenager, but hearing about the Club Q shooting as an adult makes it feel so plausible in my own life. I’ve been feeling more and more proximity to shootings in general—I know someone who lost a friend in the Indianapolis FedEx shooting, I know someone who was in the crowd at the Highland Park parade shooting—but the specific dimension of being an adult who experiences gay nightlife makes it closer still. No doubt all the right wing ghouls who peddle this “groomer” shit are gleeful to watch it unfold.

Chenford + pregnancy announcement with a Rams onesie
(I don't think I did this right. 🤷🏼‍♀️)
"You have an addiction," Tim grumbles shutting the door after yet another delivery from UPS. Or was it FedEx? After all the delivery trucks that had been at their house the last two days, he had lost track. It was only Tuesday, two days into their vacation.
"It's not an addiction," Lucy shoots back quickly after Tim tossed the package on the couch beside her. "Careful," she scolded playfully, "It could be breakable." Tim can't help but roll his eyes.
Some of her purchases have been entertaining, others not so much. The most memorable was a tie between the black lacy babydoll that arrived last week and the mini blender where they had spent the night making tiny Piña Coladas in shot glasses.
"This is for you," Lucy says after a second of looking at the address.
"I didn't order anything."
"Is your name Tim Bradford? Do you live here," she asks smartly looking up at him. "Then this is yours," she says tossing the bag back over to him.
Sure enough, it was his name printed on the shipping label, not hers. He still could not think of anything that he would have bought in the last week. It's a shirt or some type of clothing, he gathers feeling the package out. He is met with a Rams logo pressed on the white fabric, a small white fabric. "You ordered me a hand towel," he asks before ripping into the small plastic enclosed package.
"Not exactly."
She can see when it hits him as he unfolds the fabric in his hand. The shoulders of the shirt pulled tight in his hands. His eyes blink making sure that the fabric in his hand is actually what it appears to be. He had not even made it to the back yet.
Across the back is eight blocked letters. Conveniently spelling out the name they both share. A simple yellow one underneath. "Are you serious," he asks after a minute, having to swallow to hold back his emotion.
Lucy only smiles at him as she pushes herself to her feet. "Surprise," she says softly walking up to him.
Tim doesn't reply. Instead, he is pulling her into him. Her smaller body crashes into his as he holds her tight. Lucy can feel his heart hammering in his chest. Tears form in her own eyes as she relaxes into his arms.
It was time to start their next new adventure.

I've been thinking of printing up some Doom sprites as shooting targets. Between Fedex and UPS they were wanting $20-30 per print. Fuck that shit. I found another website willing to do 18X24 for $4 each, but minimum order is 100 copies and I'm not that dedicated to the bit.
I did find a local shop that quoted me $5 each for 24X36 so it sounds like we have a winner.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A Black former delivery driver in Mississippi who says two white men shot into his work van and then pursued him in a high-speed chase last year has filed a new lawsuit against the men and his former employer, FedEx.
This is the second civil suit on behalf of D'Monterrio Gibson, and it seeks at least $5 million. The two men were tried for attempted murder and other charges but a judge declared a mistrial this summer.
Gibson was not wounded during the encounter on Jan. 24, 2022, in Brookhaven, about an hour’s drive south of Jackson. FedEx made him return to work on the same route, and that caused him to have “depression, stress, anxiety, loss of sleep, and emotional pain and suffering,” according to the lawsuit. It was filed by attorney Carlos Moore on Nov. 20 in state court.
FedEx spokesperson Austin Kemker said in a statement Wednesday to The Associated Press: “Our top priority is always the safety and well-being of our employees. FedEx denies the allegations and will vigorously defend the lawsuit.”
In August, a federal judge dismissed a separate $5 million lawsuit Moore filed on behalf of Gibson against FedEx, the city of Brookhaven, the police chief and the two men: Brandon Case and his father Gregory Case.
“The Cases’ alleged conduct is deplorable," U.S. District Judge Daniel Jordan wrote. "But Gibson fails to state a viable claim against FedEx for which the Court would have original jurisdiction.”
Brandon Case and Gregory Case are charged with attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy and shooting into the vehicle driven by Gibson, which did not have a FedEx logo.
In August, state Circuit Judge David Strong cited police errors as he declared a mistrial in the criminal case of the father and son after days of jury selection and testimony. A detective testified about failing to give prosecutors and defense attorneys a copy of a videotaped police interview with Gibson.
Prosecutors said they intend to set a new date for the criminal trial, but court records show that has not been done. The two men remain out on bond.
Days after the mistrial, FedEx fired Gibson because he did not accept a part-time, non-courier job that the company offered him, Moore said. Gibson said he had been in therapy and on worker’s compensation leave, at about one-third of his pay, since shortly after the attack.
Gibson was making FedEx deliveries in a van with the Hertz rental car company logo on three sides. After Gibson left a package at a home on a dead-end public road, Gregory Case used a pickup truck to try to block the van and Brandon Case came outside with a gun, District Attorney Dee Bates said.
As Gibson drove the van around the pickup truck, shots were fired, with three rounds hitting the van and some of the packages inside, Bates said.
A lawyer for Gregory Case, the father, told jurors that his client saw a van outside his mother-in-law’s unoccupied home and went to check what was happening. Gregory Case wanted to ask the van driver what was going on, but the driver did not stop, attorney Terrell Stubbs said.
The sun had already gone down. “It was completely dark, completely dark, and somebody was in the wrong place,” Stubbs said. “It wasn’t my client.”

hi! i think i saw a post you made before about how you made your pete wentz shrine wall? would you mind reblogging it again? I'm trying to make a similar thing for my room. thanks either way!
Room in question:
Here are some posts (one, two) and I will explain it again because I love bragging about my room
Basic process was curating images from Tumblr/Pinterest /TikTok/whatever. Then I put them in a Powerpoint in various sizes and printed it at my fancy hometown library or at a Fedex. Be careful not to print double sided. You can print legal size at Fedex to make things bigger, but it's more expensive.
Then I measured butcher paper to be the size I wanted and taped pieces together to create the backing. Then taped the photos all over it with clear tape. I also used clear glue and tweezers to add hearts I punched with hole punches out of pink paper. It was hung by putting command strips + hoks on the wall and clipping binder clips to the top and hanging it; this prevents any damage to the poster itself, risks less damage to the wall, and is way easier to hang straight. I hang tapestries this way too.
I was privileged enough to have a very large table I could set up in my parent's basement and work on it for weeks on end in good lighting, but it definitely took up a massive amount of space and I would estimate was at least 30 hours of physical work and many hours of photo curation.
I would strongly recommend starting from the edges and carefully lining them up and working inwards. I did not do this and worked from the bottom up and it turned out wonky shaped. would also recommend printing some "filler" photos that can be like a cool repeating pattern of flowers or hearts or swirls or w/e that you can cut to whatever size to fit any gaps. These are not that noticeable but very necessary.

Mistrial declared in FedEx driver shooting Mistrial declared in case of 2 White men charged with attempted shooting of Black FedEx driver 00:21
A FedEx delivery driver who said two White men shot at and chased him in Mississippi in 2022 has now been fired from his job, he and his attorney said Monday.
"I honestly feel disrespected," the former driver, D'Monterrio Gibson, 25, told The Associated Press shortly after he received an email from FedEx about his termination.
Meredith Miller, manager of global network communications for FedEx, confirmed Monday that "Mr. Gibson is no longer employed at FedEx," but did not respond to other questions from AP.
Tumblr media
Carlos Moore, an attorney who has represented Gibson in a civil lawsuit, provided AP with a copy of an email Gibson received from FedEx on Monday. It said Gibson's employment was terminated July 26, and the company attempted to deliver a letter and documents to him about the termination July 31.
FedEx fired Gibson because he did not accept a part-time, non-courier job that the company offered in mid-July, Moore said, adding that he did not know whether the company gave Gibson a deadline to accept.
"They can't tell me when I should be ready to come back," Gibson said.
Worker's comp, therapy, trouble sleeping
Gibson said he has been on worker's compensation leave, at about one-third of his pay, since shortly after he reported the attack to police in Brookhaven, Mississippi, on the night it allegedly happened, Jan. 24, 2022.
Gibson was not injured in the shooting or chase, but said Monday that he has been in therapy to deal with anxiety because of it. He said he still has trouble sleeping.
Brandon Case and his father, Gregory Case, are charged with attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy and shooting into the vehicle driven by Gibson. Prosecutors said they intend to schedule a new trial for the two men, who remain out on bond. A court official said the judge's docket is full through December.
Moore said Gibson had done nothing wrong before two White men tried to stop him, with one of the men holding a gun.
White father and son charged for allegedly chasing and shooting at Black FedEx driver
"He was simply Black while working," Moore said during a news conference in 2022. Gibson had said he was told by his superiors to run the same route the day after the chase, CBS affiliate WJTV reported.
"The following day, we had to go file a police report, and as soon as I was done filing a police report, they put me back on the same route. I did that for like a day or two until I started having real bad anxiety attacks, and I just couldn't do it anymore. I asked them for some time off, which I do have, but it's unpaid," said Gibson at the time.
In a statement earlier this year, FedEx said: "FedEx takes situations of this nature very seriously, and we are shocked by this criminal act against our team member. ... The safety of our team members is our top priority, and we remain focused on his wellbeing. We will continue to support Mr. Gibson as we cooperate with investigating authorities."
Tumblr media
Gibson reported that the encounter happened as he was making FedEx deliveries in a van with the Hertz logo on three sides. After he dropped off a package at a home on a dead-end public road, Gregory Case, then 58, used a pickup truck to try to block the van from leaving, and his son Brandon Case, 35 at the time, came outside with a gun, District Attorney Dee Bates told jurors last week.
As Gibson drove the van around the pickup truck, shots were fired, with three rounds hitting the delivery van and some of the packages inside, Bates said.
Gregory Case saw a rental van with a Florida license plate outside his mother-in-law's unoccupied home after dark, defense attorney Terrell Stubbs told jurors. The elder Case was just going to ask the van driver what was going on, but the driver did not stop, Stubbs said.
Grand Jury: Brookhaven Police "complacent" 
On August 10, a federal judge dismissed Gibson's federal lawsuit seeking $5 million from FedEx, writing that the lawsuit failed to prove the company discriminated against him because of his race. That litigation also named the city of Brookhaven, the police chief and the Cases. Moore said he plans to file a new civil suit in state court, seeking $10 million.
A grand jury issued a report last month saying that Brookhaven Police Department officers "poorly investigate their cases." The grand jury, made up of local residents, considered more than 60 criminal cases, and wrote that the department is "complacent," "does not complete investigations in a timely manner," shows a "lack of professionalism" and "has a habit of witness blaming."

PR6 predictions (not really)
Every year by March/April I've done a sort-of prediction thread on Twitter for what ships I see as somewhat likely to get added into the upcoming PR of that year.
This year of 2023 will be no different, although I will probably do it here instead of Twitter for multiple reasons; one of them being Twitter probably won't be a thing by next year lol
However, I wanted to say right now, of all the WoWs ships that exist, which ship I would love, nay, need to be in AL as a shipgirl.
Tumblr media
USS Kearsarge
That ship is the mistake-shaped Kearsarge, a hybrid battleship from the US Navy. Yes, she looks hideous. Yes, that runway gives her a big "shoot me" sign. Yes, she's a slow, slumbering ship.
But those guns. Those 12 406mm guns.
Oh god.
Tumblr media
This is the sort of stuff I see with the Kearsarge when I shoot. It's just that overpowered, in my noob opinion.
The only real issue with her main guns is that her shells are delivered one by one by FedEx.

Old oc quotes
--
"Wait! When did you get kidnapped by terrorists! Why did we never Talk about Obidah sooner! I could have prevented this Tony, why didn't you say anything!"
-----
What do you mean you almost Died of metal poisoning!
--------
"Just what is Red planing that involves a Kimono?"
"I don't know. Do you think it has anything to do with her plans to rob FedEx."
"No. She borowed Tonys sweater for that."
"I don't know what she has planed for today, and I don't want to know."
-----------’
Well it involves Reasons why Hydra should not use FedEx. A mision to Japan to shoot raccons, learn Japanese, and catch up to the twentith centry, and hiring Tony a bodyguard that is around as more of a full time.
Also giving the poor guy some space to reajust without being crowded by either side.
-----’---
Unless the clothing has some noteworthy reason to stand out, I'm probably not going to describe it.
"You know what, I really like Lucy's jeans. I mean who else do you know owns red bellbottom jeans."
"Ok. That's going to be a hard chrismas present to get."
"No No. We won't have to do that. The reason I'm bringing this up to you, is beacuse I'm planing to steal them, and I'll need your help with that. "
-------
Desmond Miles is sick of everyone's shinanagains. And yet resinged
That's it, someday Desmond will adopt eagles! Or more, the eagles will adopt him. And he will curse, and blame Red, and start takeing classes on falconery
Holy shit yes,  Desmond with cross arms un the middle if a room filled with eagles surrounding him on all sides
Jacob Fyre is one of the two assassins in syndicate, and he starts a gang called the Rooks.
He's a lot more intrested in fistfighting more then this stealthy assassian stuff, much to his twin Evies annoyance, and though I had always intended them to meet (I had a draft where Red occasionally looks after them when they were younger) it's clear now Jacobs desire to lead a gang, was strengthened by Red and her accidently addopting things tendency.
Haha, n8ce on the adopting.  
Tony picked up her tendacy to adopt things, except he adopts people.
Desmond is woried one day he will get an urge to adopt eagles or something. And train them to steal wallets. Clearly her need to adopt things can be passed on, and since he is around her so often, he one day might pick up stealing.
Yes, the world needs to hear about the genius of the catbonells
------------------’’
Red first met Tony as a kid, a bit after she revived bodyguard training. Maria introduced him as your Principal, and knew about how to properly do this, beacuse in her past (and Reds future) red was hers for awile, and further down reds future, she protected her parents for a short time, and preseumably told them.
Red is bodygaurd for at least four familys, in diffrent time periods, and she is fond of bodyguard work, beacuse the principals are rich, so provide good and whatnot, some of them have been friends from a young age, like for one she has on off, helped raise, though not as much as the official first bodyguard Alba who has been around Amanda from birth, and was Reds first principal. Alba considers bodygaurding serious buisness, and is kind of like a faimly retainer. And Red is sort of this accidently, but likes the job, and is friends with the principal. As she met Tony the youngest of his faimly, and has known him the longest, they are close friends. Or she is that second cousain, that no body talks about, and comes over anyways.
I think the first party happened when Tony was thirteen, and they met when he was eight.
The first meetings I wrote earlier are AU, beacuse they didn't really work.
Maria and Tony have Spanish ancestry, btw.  Like Xavier Carbonell the artist.
Red gets to make sure dogs get well taken care of. Sometimes to destress, she goes to visit the shelter ( which ridiculously spoils the dogs, and also provides work and training to those who need it, which is why Tony counts or as philandriphist activity, beacuse it's in his name, so he has to talk about it sometimes) and just play  with dogs. And check how they are running the place.
------’’-----------
Yah, Red isn't as bad on friends. And Tony let's her have a lot of freeway with money anyways, being a timetravler is great for investing in stock. That she used some of the money on philanthropist projects like all the dog shelter/homes She starts, and hired practicly homeless people and whatnot to run it.
She loves dogs. She wants to adopt like every dog. Tonys like, so long as I can make robots, I don't really care.
Desmond facepalms whenever this tendancy pops up.
"All of your friends look after your various dogs. And then there's Tony. This is a tad ridiclous."
She was Robing FedEx for the same reason for  why Hydra should not use FedEx. She found the correct package.  She decided Tony needed a more permeant bodyguard.
I do sometimes dance. I think running might also help, if this urge didn't hit me at times like 10:30 pm.
------------’’
I kove that . I just really love Red right now. Haha, nice Red disguised as younger Tony, in a party full of investors and what not. Does Maria notice this? Like she makes a game out of it if she can get red to break character. A bored genius is a dangerous one
No, problems on this side either. Nist of them tend to rationalize it as I will need this, they don't anymore .
Guess i gotta keeo an eye out for my stuff around Red then lol .
I haven't.  I have heard of it by whisperes post in tumbkr with Canada. That sounds good, i hope to try one if i ever see a Tim Hortons
Have you walked it out or i dunno uh i tend to dance a butchered version of ballet if i get restless. Music tends to help but it just makes it worse on my part 
I eanna try that. Stop making me hungry for food  xD
Oh, Maria does what bored guiness mothers do. Start telling embarasing Tony stories, to see how Red can get out of that while reasonably staying in character. Of course Maria noticed, Red has done that for her too. Not that Red knew that yet, but she does catch on to Maria noticing her.
I think she has dressed up and impersonated Tony to be a decoy for something when they were younger. It could have been for something dangrous just as easily as it could have been a borring event he didn't want to attend.
She does impressions and impersonated people all the time, but the voice can't sound exact. Just very good. She has attention to details, but rarely history.
"I don't know Desmond, what happened in 2012."
"That was the year I got kidnapped. You know, the year we were almost destroyed by the sun."
"I knew that. Someone was saying something about a present or something. Whatever."
If it's not relevant , she dosent really care.
Yah, I tend to find most of my characters at the very least seem to be corpse robbers.
Red is a shameless pickpocket.
"Hey Desmond. Today, some guy named David Johnson will be paying for lunch with his credit card. So for today, your David, K"
"Damnit Red, when did you nab that. "
"Common David! Lets go to Applebees."
Have you ever been to Tim Hortans. I'm aware that an American company owns it now (to which I am a little offended by) and there might be some around down there . If so, have you ever tried a creamy maple chill? Its super sweet, and rich, but I kind of like it.
Yah, but that's the thing. I'm haveing trouble sitting still. Its figitty. I sit and I need to get up again.
I found out today that pizza ghetti (spaghetti pizza) is a thing in Quebec (and some other proviances, but mostly Quebec).
Yah, she finds running past a fight and pickpockiting the opponents the most useful skill out there. It requires her looking and figuring out what's in their pockets first, but that's always helpful. Swipe and run.
She does do a lot of stealing. Still, various people in her life are giving her limits on what is appropriate to steal when.
Any guesses as to why she needed Tonys sweater?
------------
And then I imagined Red being like
"Hey Tony, I need to go Rob  FedEx , and I'm borrowing your sweater. Be back in a few days."
Tony: "...? Ok?"
--------------
Yes, Just him and Bucky, not breaking hearts, but messing with Germans by deploying the ghost army.
--------
I like to try to get Red to meet people she will friendship, though some people she just can't help but dislike. Then there are neutrals. And of course, there are some people she just hates. And the sun. The sun is on that list most days.
Ahh, yes I can see them clashing over that. But wouldn't that make it funnier if he gave one of the shovel talks?
--------
Maybe. I think I want to do that digitally though, so I might wait untill Monday where I have access to Adobe illustrator at school.
Red, would probably not be traditionally pretty, she has a lot of scars, which stand out more with the pale skin. But beyond that, Mars would probably fix her nose and whatnot if it broke. They want her in the best condition, and it includes inocculating her against any desiease they can think of, to prevent her from accidently starting a plague sometime.
Of course it's not out of alterism. They have use for her fighting skills.
-------------------
Red originally was a much darker blond. But then I realised, she wouldn't complain about sunburn so often. She takes after her dad in colouring and her mom or mixed in features.
Well, that and I wanted her to stand out. That way she does want to learn disguises more, and enjoys the sun barrier the skin colouring of the diguise out teaches.
I haven't come up with a name for it yet, but I have a concept of something that you would use for disguise that can change your skin colour. It will give you sun, and will show tan if you have been out awile, or even sun burn in appropriate skin types. It washed off with its counter and not even water will get rid of it. Red, pretends to have darker skin then she does, as it covers up as her tattoos and scars, unless she adds some, and it lessens her chances of getting burnt by the sun.
Red is pale. Pale skin (that everything shows up well on) pale blonde hair, light grey eyes.
Though sometimes I'm tempted to have them dark grey for contrast.
--- --------
She has killed a lot of people, and dosent usually feel to upset about that. She had trouble seeing what was wrong about teaching a seven year old to use a gun, and is more upset at Lenas distress then the fact that Lena killed someone.
She gets that first kill can be distressing, but puts Lenas life over Damions and would have done the same thing If she had been at the house. She was 'killed' by a convieance store robber, and is glad Lenas home invasion has a diffrent outcome.
So she empathisises with Lena, but dosent quite think she would change it, unless she could have had Lena out of the house and avoid the whole thing.
And some people tell her that she should learn dillomacy, that she should prevent loss of life, and others praise her for being an exclent accident specilist.
She's kind of confused about the whole thing, as a teen really.
"Did you forget? I'm a terrible person. This will be no problem for me. "
With age, she kind of finds a sort of ballance, but still finds the killing tabo thing a tad strange. So long as it's on appropraite targets , and clean kills, she dosent quite get the deal.
She's trying to get better at diplomacy and negotiation.
She's going for break their arm if they attack, when asked.
Its getting a little easier to do it without being asked, but she still needs reminders sometimes.
Her head is a strange place
And she's also selfish. I don't know you, I wouldn't do that for a stranger. But then she goes into a house on fire, beacuse the person is still alive, and probably won't die if I do this now.
But she will kill a lot of people to keep her friends safe, and society has strange morals about that.
She doesn't quite have a normal moral compas
Have i ever mentioned lately how much i really love Red?
It might take her quite a bit to feel that way about herself
She puts her friends as a value higher then her.
Beacuse if they die, she will lose them, where she has been comeing back from the worst hits since she was eight (I think)
-----------
Red is also not that big on being touched. Neither is Tony. Red would prefer to initiate contact, then be surprised by it. At times she's not sure if a hug is needed and just hovers awkwardly around, and resist the urge to stiffen up if they do hug her. They should hug, but both of them are ridiclous people like that, and that's what Desmond is around for. "Serriously you guys, hug. "
She would pick kid Tony up for a piggyback if he asked. Or carry him if needed.
Does picking him up, and carrying kid Tony to a private place to cry help, and tell him about, something mundane, like how to tell good fruit from bad. She wouldn't shove him off if he curled in, but they would be talking, or end up working on something.
If I had to make a music video for tony, I would go with one of Bo Burnhams finales. Like "We think we know you."
As adults they would probably go and play video games. And talk. And sit on the couch, and stop being Tony and Red, and be pokemon fans. And have something in the tv. Other days they would play Bioshock or something but bad days are no weapons games, and this way they can be competitive and distracted from lifes problems.
Body swap from the same story I showed earlier has Darcy and Tony , senses, and self care. That's probably a bad way to explain it but, I think I need that now
----------
Even though there are a lot of things about Tonys personal quirks that probably means I wouldn't get along with Tony, I like his character. I get some of the things about his character in my own way. Tony is an artist who grew up in the spotlight. If left alone he would probably just sit in his lab and make things. And get hyperfoccused and not eat. I admire his ambition.
The thing I find about being any kind of celebrity is that the media builds them up to tear them down.
Tonys work will get imeadite attention, and he is praised to the skies for his sucess, and dragged down for his failures.
He decided, these weapons are my mistake, and I will fic this.
The world looks up to him, and he is under so much pressure to deliver, and now that he's a hero, he tries with everything hes got. He puts his mind, his body, his sainity, his hopes and dreams into his work.
And at times it comes crashing down around him. And that hurts, that failure hurts so much, and the world wacths Tony Fail and holds him so accountable.
Tony, I think, is not the type to like to have other people in charge of him. He has some people he trusts, to varying degrees, and he will take orders from, but that's personally chosen. To see him arguing for the Slovakia accords felt kind of strange, but after his last failure, I can see why he would be doing that.
He made a huge mistake, and he is takeing all the blame. No really, Bruce was kind of involved in the science bender, but is probably doing a runner, beacuse he is already afraid of how people react to the Hulk.
So Tony is there, and feeling like crap.
NothingIdoisgoodenough. Imnotgoodenough. Iamaterribleperson. WhydidIthinkIcouldmakethingsbetter, Iamsuchascrewup. Ialwayshavebeen,andalwayswillbe. Icantdothis.
Familiar thoughts to artists, cbeacuse we do at times feel that way about our work, and Tony must feel so much worse, beacuse his killed so many people, and he didn't want to make things to kill people anymore.
Beyond suits, beacuse those things saved his life.
Then Cap going against what he thinks, and bringing a wanted man (and his parents killer) into his place uninvited.
And it goes downhill even more.
Someone give that man a hug, but he dosent like hugs, so Red, you go to him as a kid, and teach him disguises, so he can get some time away from being Tony Stark all the time.
And make him food, and Later get Desmond to make you eat food regularly, beacuse God knows the two of you are terrible at eating regularly

Ahh, your dorks are so happy! It's heartwarming! What is the book called?
Sometimes in the quieter moments, Red paints scenery. She can draw people pretty well, but there's something about water colour paintings she just likes. She will use other mediums if she has them, but water colour is easier to carry and use in a variety of places. Or watercolour pencils.
On the bad days it's deffinatly not scenery.
Does Red ever hang her paintings? That's so cool. I wanna know what she paints on bad days but i kinda don't wanna know but do
I wonder if Tony have her paintings.  Does she have sone of Desmond and Maria?  Who does she paint more of?
Some places she sells them. them. Sometimes Her friends hang them.
Sometimes she draws people they ask her to describe as witness statments or something. She was taught very accurate anatomy.
Other times she draws people she is peoplewacthing.
Occasionly she does portraits. Tony asked for one of his mother once, and she realised, Oh, thats why Maria gave me permission to paint that one day. I ask later , apparently.
She also paints scenery on Tonys walls, in his old home. Sometimes she paints on the walls on had days too, but that is usually after drawing for awhile and calming down. Sometimes an outlet can help you think about something more calmly, even if it is still not a story you want to share. Desmond is not allowed to look at that skethbook.

Logan and Helga are Jason and Eleanors Parents
.They are the Ryans
Even if it dosent play out in the story, I need to know these little details so I can write them accuartly as I can.
Her mother is Angela Lareau- Jordan. Her father is Jason Ryan.
Her cousian has a dead twin so they gave her both sets of names.
Mary-Jacob, Elizabeth-Brandon, Monique- Theirry, Ryan- Laframbois.
We just call her M.T
MTs parents are Eleanor Ryan and David Laframbois

I'm trying to develop people in Reds life, especially Pre Desmond, beacuse they didn't beacome a team untill after he died (and he was the ghost snoop) and became Jesus. Martians brought him back.
I decided that she has had three serious relationships.
One was a one faded, one was a mutual break, and the last was with a rival where they broke up (mutualy) after their competitiveness got them into serious trouble.
I'm comeing up with ways that might have reached that, but all that's really hitting me was they put themselves and someone else in mortal danger through it, or they almost (or really) caused an international incident
Most other dates Red goes on are really more for the food, and some intresting conversation.
I think the mutual break up, might have happened dateing someone durring the zombie appolyapce. Seeing your girlfriend die, (and it's bad enough that she's your friend and that hurts, but worse as a girlfriend somehow) and meeting her latter when she's older, or younger, ect, is not a relationship that is easy on the partner, especially in zombietimes. They can work together fine, are even still friends after some distance, but long term was not in the cards for them. That's kind hard, and she got that.
Now the rival, was a lot of fun to date, but also kind of covers why you shouldn't date a rival. You focus more on compeating then compromise and communication. Then you both end up escalating it too far, and cause an international incident.
-----------
Her lack of filter drives Desmond nuts. She has one when in a mask, but relaxed and casually chatting some will unknowingly reveal disturbing information. And then people just look at her with alarmed faces, and she shuts up, blushes,and leaves.
Yah, Red sitting there thinking "...this was not what I thought you wanted to talk about in the slightest."
And then there are her friends who are talking about a subject she has no Idea about, because she is hopelessly out of touch with whats going on right now in the world.
She sits there wondering "Do we normally talk about this? Is this something that happened last time you saw me, and you are finishing a conversation I haven't had yet? Do I know your friend? Is it rude to ask for a name?

I decided to flesh out the wacthdogs part of Reds story. In a diffrent direction from cannon, the car accident that was meant to assassinate Aiden, took his nephew Jackson instead of his niece Lena. He's still looking for revenge, but Lenas reaction went differently from Jacksons
I didn't quite expect it to lead where it did, but Red is a bad influence on children. Shes known this faimly, ever since she came into this time running, and was hit by their car. She's kind of that cousian that sometimes shows up to the kids. She does not think that what comes out of her mouth will be influence them that much, when she plays with normal children. She is proven wrong several times.
Anyways, when Red got out of the hospital around the beginning of watch dogs, Lena meets her at the hospital and asks her to teach her to use a gun. This is a seven year old.
Red gets the sense that Lena will get a gun and learn anyways, if she says no, beacuse and she might as well be there to teach her to shoot safe
.
Red, who also learned to use weapons at a young age, and learning made her feel safer, does not see much of a problem with teaching this, and goes about teaching her to responsibly use an H&R 243 rifle. (one that would be ok for a child recoil wise, and prevent bad habbits from forming latter)
She gives a safety lecture, and tells Lena that one day She Wil take her hunting. (Red intends Lenas first kill to be very diffrent from her own, done in a safe and controlled enviorment, to an food, from a distance)
Red is a good teacher , but actions have consequences
When Aiden met up with his sister at the beginig, she had been getting crank calls threatning robbery.
In the game, Damien Brenks breaks into his sister's house, kidnaps Nicole, and uses her to get Aiden to do work for him in excange for her saftey.
(I did not expect it the following )
Here, Damien breaks into the house intending to get Lena, or Nicole, and meets up with an armed Lena that ends up with her shooting him in the head, and completely derailling the later plot of watchdogs.
She is alive beacuse Jackson successfully called shotgun seat in this verse, and then this happens.
I'm sorry. Kind of. I don't know. I knew something bad was going to happen when Red taught her to fire a gun, but I did not expect it to take the turn it did where a seven year old kid shots someone fataly. Even Red was probably eight in the conviance store disaster.
I don't know how to feel about this one to be honest. I mean, red gets into all kind of messes, and probably brings people into them, but this was a seven year old.  Aidens neice.
All I knew about her before this, was that when She was twenty she had a TMI talk with Red in the hospital about her sexuality and the people who we're involved in her journey to figure that out.
Lena is the sort of person who does talk to random people about her issues, and Red is the kind of person who sometimes gets TMI conversations as a confidant, and didn't expect to have that happen.
Well, Lena really derailled the game plot, in a way I was never expecting her to, and It could be intresting to see, what comes of it.
Desmond will use this as a primary example of why Red should not be a babaysitter.
"You taught Tony to drive."
"Tony could have probably hotwired the car, and learned by himself anyways. anyways. Teaching him was safer "
"You also taught a seven year old to use a gun."
"I think she would have found one and learned anyways. Gun safety is important."
"She shot a man in the head."
"He was breaking and entering. And Damien. "
"She shot a man in head, Red."
After this, along with paying for therapy for all involved. (she was able to get her hands on a fair bit of Damien's money) she signs Lena up for Karate. And leaves her money to continue with the lessons.
Nither of them are wrong, per say, but people are more inclined to agree with Desmond.
This is not the zombie apocalypse times
I may agrer with Desmond ,but i do believe with Red at some point they will need to learn.  More so Tony i doubt he will just take no okay. He will probably one way or another its better to teach him now. However she should have probably took more precautions with a child and a gun.
Yah, she was younger then, and she taught gun safety and shooting fine. She just didn't... think this all the way through, to possible consequences.
She was trained to use weapons at a young age, after all, and probably didn't think too hard about teaching a kid, beyond makeing sure she can do it safely and supervised. 
She went over instructions like "never point a gun at something you don't intend to shoot. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction. "
It was, a home invasion. invasion, and not an accident.
Yah, Red kind of realised. "I should have started her off with martial arts, rather then let her insist. "
So she dosent repeat that incident again, but she dosent have much of a filter for "things not appropriate to teach to children. "
Yah, everyone involved need some grief therapy at least about Jackson, and probably a fair bit more, especially Lena.
In game Jackson was going to therapy after the death of his sister, and wouldnt talk to anyone except his mom.
How dare he get Ivette into star trek!
Jk that's adorable

Tony stark has a thing for adopting superheros.
Tony does have a thing for adopting superheros.
Yes, I want a sciencing hulk at my tower.
Sure I'll take a sniper and assassian.
You might as well be here in my Avengers Tower. Take that fury!
I'm glad she is relatable. relatable. I tried to make her flawed and relatable. And she dosent quite get normal conventions, like why it was a bad Idea to teach ten year old Tony how to drive like a get away driver.
Tony. If Tony decided to rule the world, she would probably do her best to make it happen. There is another universe out there, where she and Tony fought their way to the top and started the Iron empire. Pepper potts rules the world. And Red protects them. They are all in armor.
But that is not this world.
I'm going to have to learn more about math, to write her as a sniper, mechanic, medic, And hacker. She's the kind of person who can rattle off cordnites like a boss. Its important for accurate telleporting. Sometimes,when she's really desprate, she can convince herself of a fourmula to slow down.
On the other hand, her foccus often has her putting personal things on the burner. Self care, relationship care, happiness.
She has work priorities.
She likes people, and she can fake it to strangers, but friends.  She doesn't genraly like to lie to them.
Haha, Red and Tony talk tech so much. She likes math

I got the idea, if there being other precursor talents from Desmond. The dude is almost sage in precursor percentage of blood, but dosent have the eagle vission, despite his ancestors having it. Including three generations of Kenways at least.
He only activated Eagle vision, from the bleeding effect of the animus.
So I think he had something else before,and eagle vission might have overwrote it.
I don't know if I mentioned this, but in the assassins creed verse, most assassins we play have eagle vision.
But eagle vision probably wasn't the only sense that could be enhanced, just the most famous one. And wanted
Red is trained, to use it. It can indicate to her if people are lying (though about what she has to use logic and reading people skills) and tracking , along with regular things scent trained people can do like sillage, and picking out fresh ingreadents. We can pick up emotions to some extent by scent, although our brain tells us by body language.
We are not alone in our head. We have the left brain and the right brain. The left brain gets surprised when the right does something unexpected,and logics it to us as something we were planning.
Especialy as her precursor talent is scent/taste
Oh! Red, that sucks. Imagine vinegar,  i have better smell and jesus i hate the sharp nurning smel of it.
That is a nice tattoo
Desmond got Red a scarf in Assassian colours. It's white with red maple leaves at the tips. It doubles as a Canada scarf.
She wears scarves, and wraps them around her face, when going into overwhelming smell areas. Like the sewers...or the body shop for soap
------------
That's the thing. People see so much of Howard in Tony.
What kind of woman could keep Howard's attention that he would want to marry?
Probably not some trophy wife.
No, he would go for someone intelligent. Someone headstrong. Someone who he won't get bored with.
Perhaps they are not the most suited people to be parents, beacuse they both get so caught up in their projects, and each other, that they don't pay enough attention to Tony.
Of the two of them, she gets along more with Tony then Howard, but Tony really wants his father's attention, but their relationship is rocky.
Sometimes she plays the piano with him, and he loved that.
No, I like to think that Tony inherited traits from both of them, and his mother was kind of overlooked beacuse Howard stood out more, and the male dominated society overlooks her.
.-----------
Red being drived crazy by Maria sometimes makes me laugh. That's really amazing, i always saw Tony taking after Howard but his mom makes it 100 time better
She is  fonder of Tony then Maria, though she will never tell them that. Tony met her as a kid. They were friends from a young age. Maria met her when they were both older, and she was kind of assigned to Maria to keep her safe. Beacuse I kind of Headcannon Both Maria and Howard driving their bodyguards nuts in diffrent ways by being geniuses with more brains then common sense or patience.
Tony inherited his brains for both of them.
"Trust me, you do not get that just from your father. "
Maria is kind of condescending at times, and stubborn, and gets tunnle vission to her goals. She sort of occasionally treats Red as faimly property, and  Red kind of is, Beacuse Maria's parents already knew her, and saw fit to send her to gaurd their daughter with no interview, meaning she must have impressed the pants off of them sometime in the past.
Still it helps sometimes.
"That is my secratary, hands off. "
She refers to a lot of people possessively.
"What did you want with my son?"
Tony might just be the third generation she has been a tempoary bodyguard for.
Probably the one with the longest contract, in his faimly.
I decided a thing about Reds fassion. When she's out in public she will be wearing clothing which colour and style is remicent of who she is around. Like, I can't see her carrying clothing with her, so it would make sense of she's almost always wearing other people's. Beyond her tattered oversized reversible sweater she won't get rid of.   And for important people like her principals,she will be wearing their colours. Like around Tony, she wears black pants, red sweater, and a gold broach, as casual, where around Maria (his mom) she wore a lavender sweater and pkatnium white pants.
It's kind of important for blending for her too. If she is wearing her Principals colours, she won't be questioned as much on why she is here. But, she also cares, despite herself.
--------
And I headcannon that the longer she has the shard, the further she will go when she accidently  telleports out of danger and knocks herself out. This can lead to near -(should have died)-death and wakeing up in a new place, beacuse being uncouncious does not mean safe or patched up from wounds. When She learns to use it intentionly (involving math) and when not in danger( physical, although everyone says that the shard will one day probably drive her crazy, especialy if she keeps useing it to grab groceries and other mundane things), she becomes like a casual apperator in Harry potter. It won't protect her from everything, but it can be good for a saving throw.
She despratly does not want the wrong people to learn about it.
Headcannon two is that Tony who grew up with her in his life, is both kind of corrupted by her in some ways, and better at blending in when he wants to.
She taught him something about minute masks, and how other people behave, so sometimes he doesn't have to be Tony Stark, when he needs to be someone else.
She teaches him exactly what he asks. Which is why at age ten, Tony learned to drive. He's learned her signs, he's learned Martian, he's learned how to paint with a tablet, all beacuse he asked "teach me that".
Principals are some of the few people she meet who are meeting her for the first time too. Bodyguard conditioning may keep her loyal, but frindship keeps her honest. She is a closser friend then should probably be professional, but being a friend means you get in disguise and go crash a party your not invited to, or a movie, or bowling. Sure most people probably don't have observation tests after that, but it's a lot more normal then they usually get. That's how you learn that normal people don't all have hot tubs, and other important disguise tips.
---
In another world, Tony Stark is raised by a Bucky Barns breaking his conditioning, constantly on the run from hydra. Red is a kid they occasionly take to the hospitial, and repays in false ID, cover in firefights, sabatoge, and teaching Tony Languages, math, science, and genraly chatting.
In a diffrent one, she is there, but Tonys goal is to rule the world to best protect it, and she will do anything to help him get there. He will be carried to the throne by her, as she cuts down those who try to stop him.
In another world, she is Jasper, and Tony is Hydra 's leader. Yet another has her an Hydra asset, and Bucky his bodyguard.
But Tony thinks the worst worlds, are the ones where  he is alone.  No Red to teach him, or tell him about Hydra. No Bucky to take him around the world, on the run, but happy. Just Him and Obie. Or possibly the female Tony and Obie, who designs better programs then he could dream about. Those Tonys always come off as bitter and lonley.
----
Headcannon , Desmond got snaged by Templars when he went to go pick up borderlands 2 he ordered.
---
Headcannon, Red deffinatly played videogames and other media from her world with Tony, so they are always referencing things no one else gets, as an in joke.
----------
Ok let's break this up so tumbler doesn't send it to space or something.
Sorry if you've already seen parts. The AU Red of another world. Perhaps the soulmarks of life-changing people.
I don't know how many marks she has, but her first one, that She meets (and in some Alternate Soul marks the only one) says "don't move" on her neck. That is of course, the robber who robbed the convieance store her cousin works at, beacuse whatever comes of that situation, it will be life-changing.
This wouldn't quite be cannon, beacuse she wouldn't quite say it this way I think.
Strays
Somehow she's picked up a tendency to adopt things. Did it come from her apparent adoption of Aeiden?  Did his niece niece addopt her? Or Aeidens sister? Or did she adopt them into her life with him?
Perhaps its a learned habit from the strange rich people she hangs around with.  She certainly is often an older sister figure to their children. And some orphans. Then possibly a generation or two of zombie appolcyapse survivors. Jacob and Evie.  Countless dogs. A few cats. Her students. And Desmond.
It weirds her out more when the people around her seem to share this habit. Like Conner and their ridiculous amount of dogs. And the hospital she accidentally started. And his second child he adopted.
Her students and their pets, for clearly she has been a bad influence on them.
Not to mention Amanda (who seemed to want to marry Desmond). Or Tony, who had taken to adopting superheroes, and also Desmond for good measure.  Or Thor who is just as bad as Clint Or her at bringing back stray animals.
