the fact that this was my first ship speaks volumes, like of course I seek out the most problematic, toxic, aggressive person in a show and pair them with a dramatic, whiny, obnoxious brat. The cycle repeats itself again and again

Hey! I am wondering about: favorite lines & excerpts of works you've written? (fic or other)
Omg thanks so much for askin! This is an excerpt from the second chapter of Men I Trust. I like it because the dialogue is very snappy and it came so easily for me which isn’t always the case with dialogue scene scenes. I hope you enjoy!
Heather wants blue eyeshadow and Billy tries to change her mind. Even goes so far as to pull up pictures of 80s Makeup Fails on Pinterest to show that this is a mistake.
That they'll be laughed out of the bar if she walks in looking like a Degrassi Junior High reject, but Heather smacks the phone away and Billy picks it back up again, turning on their joint get psyched mix before fluffing one of the brushes that Heather definitely did not clean.
He tries to reason with her one last time. "You're not gonna get any pussy while wearing blue eyeshadow, kid."
Heather closes her eyes in preparation. "Not true."
“So true."
"The kind of pussy I'd want wouldn't care." Heather grips painfully at Billy's wrist, lips drawing back. "Get a move on. Tempo opens at nine."
"Jesus, alright." He yanks his wrist free, dipping Heather's brush into a powder blue shade named macaw. "The fuck has wormed its way up your ass tonight, Holloway?"
"Nothing." She snaps. Too quick and too violent for it not to be nothing, but.
Billy knows when to cut his losses.
Knows a fire when he sees one, companionable with the way Heather's jaw is set like she's preparing for war. Billy decides maybe the blue isn't such a bad idea.
After a few minutes he gets lost in the process. Focused and calmed by the movement of his blending brush, Billy doesn't even realize that Heather's crying until macaw stops giving up its pigment.
"Talk to me." He says, setting the brush aside. "You know you can always--"
"Robin has a date tonight."
And. There's something in her voice. Something sharp and fragile that clues Billy in on something he should've seen. Noticed.
Billy closes the pallete all together. "I didn't know that you--"
"I didn't either." Heather snaps, patting the corners of her eyes. "But while we were wine drunk in your bed the other night she wanted to be the big spoon, so I let her be the big spoon even though I'm always the big spoon."
Billy doesn't get it. "Okay?"
"She tucked my head under her chin and told me I smelled like rose water." Heather says hysterically. "And I remember thinking 'rose water kind of smells like saliva. Or piss or something,' but Robin said it so soft. And Sweet. And her voice was rough from the wine, and she planted a kiss on the top of my head and told me she had a crush on me when you and Steve first started hanging out--"
"Oh god." Billy says, because. "Fuck."
"I don't know what to do, Billy." He rubs Heather's back, and just. Tries to be there for her. "I mean, this time last week I would've thought 'Robin? Never in a million, trillion years,' but--"
"Hold on." Billy pulls away, steadying Heather as she starts crying again. "Is Robin meeting this girl at Tempo?"
Heather bites her tongue, literally and figuratively and Billy grits his teeth. Shaking her just a little bit, like, "Heather."
"At nine." She says miserably. "They're meeting for drinks at nine--"
"We aren't going, then. Heather, we're not fucking this up for her."
"Billy--"
"No, you always fucking do this." Billy says, working over time to make his voice soft or something. "You always want what you can't have and Robin--" Billy looks around, like Steve might be listening at the door. "Robin is so off limits."
"I know--"
"Do you?"
"Yes, Billy, GOD." Heather pulls away, checking her makeup in Billy's handheld mirror. "It would be crazy for us to show up there, and I'm not crazy."
"You're not crazy." Billy agrees.
Heather hands him the makeup brush, closing her eyes once more. He's only just got the base on Heather's second eye when she peeks at him, frowning.
Billy pulls away. "What."
"Nothing."
“Spit out, Holloway."
"Wouldn't it be a fun night, though? Making sure this girl's not an axe murderer or a stripper or a Republican--"
Billy sneers. "What's wrong with strippers?"
“Nothing, it's just." Heather's lip starts trembling again and Billy thinks if she ruins her makeup he's going to kill her.
She sighs. "I care about Robin."
"Yeah, sure."
"As a friend." Heather clarifies. "A best friend. Someone I'd be a roommate with. Someone I'd protect with my life--"
"Stop speaking in riddles."
"Like you. With Steve." Heather says, crossing her arms. "If you could go back in time. Stop him from meeting Oscar, or Mark, or Tyler--"
Billy frowns. "I had nothing against Tyler."
"Okay, Adam then."
Billy doesn't like where this is going.
Doesn't like that she's found the soft spot, the clink in his armor. Billy tosses the makeup brush to the floor, scrubbing a hand across his face.
Heather nudges him, like, "If you could go back and stop him from falling in love with that piece of cardboard. Would you do it."
Billy doesn't want to hear this.
Billy isn't hearing this. He picks the makeup brush off the floor, like. "Heather, that has nothing to do with--"
"Would you do it."
“I'm not in love with Steve." Billy whispers, sounding every bit like he might be in love with Steve.
Heather shrugs and Billy hates her.
"We aren't going to Tempo to sabotage Robin's date, Heather." Billy grabs her wrists, like. "Look at me. Listen to my words. Absolutely not."

kinda a dumb b*tch. like the jock type who made nerds do her homework and now she’s seriously regretting it in this job market. most known for stupid mistakes made she made in high school. like, but not limited to, flashing some wanna be film student her tit*s thinking it’d make her famous. think manny santos from degrassi. it resulted in her dropping out (she likes to pretend it was because she was soooo over school at that point but it was mostly humiliation). the result was her connecting with douchey art house directors and spending the last four years failing as an ‘actress’. she was hopelessly optimistic. actress is a real loose term here. like really loosely. she f*cked her way to the top but never actually got to the top. now going through a nice little mid life crisis after realizing she’s done nothing but emmas a couple million instagram followers. trying to get her CAP and baccalaureate qualifications (google says its the french equivalent of a high school diploma). doesn’t know what she wants to do in life. still holding onto that actress dream. and her insecure ass has visited the plastic surgeon like twice this month to see if they can make her look a little more like bardot, her hero. also probably has a gofundme for plastic surgery. 
needs: fam. she’s got a few sisters from various misters. open faces but they all came to paris like 10 years ago when her mother first married a french man. they’re og from the united states. and in addition to those she has even more step siblings because her mother remarried a couple of months ago (i have a request just message me bc i have to edit a few things).   friends. she’s in britt’s group friend thing so hmu. but also she’s open to other friends. a cute arthouse type of friend group that she feels like a total fraud in. that one that will literally pay them to get into one of their movies. she’s susceptible to being manipulated by pretentious assholes.  romance. hookup? exs? idk what but she’s equal parts romantic and promiscuous. maybe a long time on/off boyfriend for something a little toxic or a nerd that’s helping her pass her exams that she’s falling for or an ex-bf that’s over her shit so he gave her an ultimatum and she failed and now she leaves 4am drunk calls for him to com pick her up? idk. if anything interests you message me. i’ll figure it out when the site opens and put up a req.

I’m at 99 contenders for my “Top 100 Albums of All Time” list.
A large part of this entire journey was to attempt to delve into my subjectivity and question why I like what I like and, potentially, in a broader sense, start to gain a better understanding of what makes a *great* album. 
But equally as interesting are those albums that just aren’t *great* enough. This past week, I listened to two albums which are truly excellent but didn’t quite make the cut.
Iron and Wine - The Shepherd’s Dog
When I first heard Iron and Wine, I was admittedly dulled out of my senses. I would frequently rant about their dullness and question why anyone in their right mind could stand it. So much so that I remember a friend asking to quote my vitriol for an article he was writing on the band (something about drinking jim beam while listening to sam beam, I couldn’t find the article online). 
I have since replaced “dulled” with “lulled” and found great appreciation for  “The Creek Drank the Cradle” and “Our Endless Numbered Days.”
But then a different friend of mine handed me a copy of the “Woman King EP,” and told me to give them another shot. And, I’ll admit, I was impressed. Here was some potential for life and energy and passion. So, with that in mind, I gave “The Shepherd’s Dog” a chance. And it paid off. 
Here was the fullness I had been missing. There was even a rhythm section! And with it came a groove that played masterfully off of Beam’s silky voice and accompanying harmonies.
To this day, it’s an album I turn to at a party or when with company or on a road trip. It possesses the unique quality of being both supremely palatable and musically complex; it appeals to both the active and the passive listener. 
So, for g-d’s sake, why leave it off the contender list? 
One reason might be due to its universality. There is nothing abrasive, nothing off-putting, nothing controversial in these 12 tracks. Even the scattered vulgarities are so well couched that a discerning ear might easily miss them on a first listen. I find that I tend to lean toward the less than perfect, the flawed, the discordant. Individuality can be built by defending unpopular opinions and the unpopular opinion in this case might be passing it by. This is not to say that I rejoice in making choices others find cringeworthy, but I do believe that there is joy in having an opinion that is uniquely yours. 
Another reason is that I tend to lean toward albums that feel like the artist is pushing their own boundaries. In this case, the boundaries pushed are adding some instruments and not sounding like they’ve recorded the entire thing in their basement. So maybe I just don’t find the push all that impressive.
Lastly, maybe I’ve just heard it too many times. As I said before, it’s an album I frequently turn to. When I was working at coffeeshops, many of its tracks would be on my work playlist. I’ve probably listened to “Pagan Angel and a Borrowed Car,” nearly 100 times. And the fact that, unlike “Graceland” or “August and Everything After” or “I Am The Movie,” its repeatability feels even remotely negative seems like reason enough.
Atmosphere - Seven’s Travels
I stumbled upon Atmosphere on a Epitaph Records compilation. 
My knowledge of hip-hop at that time was fairly limited. I was a big fan of Beastie Boys. I owned De La’s “Three Feet High and Rising,” and Tribe’s “Low End Theory” but didn’t really get them. I had “The Slim Shady LP,” but that was because I first heard him on alternative radio. I thought Limp Bizkit was cool.
Tough times, I know.
But I was big into punk. And this was when Epitaph was killing it. Not only did their roster include classics like Bad Religion, Pennywise, and Rancid, but they began to push the limits of the genre, signing acts like Motion City Soundtrack and The Weakerthans and The Special Goodness. 
And then there was this licensing deal that brought Rhymesayers to Epitaph. 
And I discovered Sage Francis and Eyedea & Abilities and The Coup and Danger Doom. 
And I discovered Atmosphere. 
I knew there was something special about Seven’s Travels when Slug gave a shout out to “emo kids with too many feelings” in the intro to “Always Coming Back Home to You.” The album was rife with Ant’s slick beats and Slug’s impassioned rhymes. Slug was Drake while Drake was still on Degrassi. And I ate that shit up.
So why the disrespect this time around?
I’m married now. I have, at the least, a semblance of a career. I help pay a mortgage. I’m not worried about relationships or getting my life together or battling with my vices. I’m worried about my cholesterol and when I’m going to do the laundry and if I’m saving enough money for the future. Like Slug, I am also trying to find a balance but its between being responsible and having enough time to do shit like write these blogs.  
Whatever I can enjoy about the album exists purely in nostalgia. And nostalgia can be a beast. I would be lying if I said I didn’t start bopping my head to the aforementioned “Trying to Find a Balance,” or gutteral-screaming along to “Bird Sings Why the Cage I Know,” or giving an approving smile to the LifterPuller reference in “Reflections.” But nostalgia can only go so far. And it damn well shouldn’t be a reason to give an album a top 100 contender slot. 
What I listened to last week:
Top 100 contenders in bold.
CIV - Set Your Goals
Sufjan Stevens - Seven Swans
Atmosphere - Seven’s Travels
The Cure - Seventeen Seconds
Goldfrapp - Seventh Tree
Severed - Severed
Ben Kweller - Sha Sha
Dashboard Confessional- The Shade of Poison Trees: I love the fact that the songs on this album that sound the most like his early material are political rants; almost as if his heart is no longer broken by girls but by our government. 
Ted Leo & The Pharmacists - Shake the Sheets
Refused - The Shape of Punk to Come: A Chimerical Bombation in 12 Bursts
Slow Gherkin - Shed Some Skin
Iron & Wine - The Shepherd’s Dog

Conversation
Opening Up
Clare: had suspected she should avoid reading adult manga so she was glad she asked and Kota confirmed her suspicions. It would save her a lot of embarrassment. “Not for me.” She agreed. “I don’t know what all they show in porn either. I have seen True Blood...they show butts and breasts. Alli and I get the giggles even though we fast forward.” She said honestly. Clare worried about getting caught watching the vampire show too but she never watched it at home. “I have a lot to learn about cooking. Sushi sounds harder to make...and I don’t like fish. I’ll make it, just don’t expect me to eat it.” Clare looked at him. “I know there’s not actually an auction. That was the only similar thing we do here that I could think of.” She rolled her eyes playfully. “You better not fall for that trick. If whatever girl you get paired up with wants a real kiss make it as gross as possible. The boys need to skirt around the rules too. Unless they get a pairing they like. Seriously though if she’s nice and you don’t want to hurt her feelings, I’m fine with a quick peck.” She reassured him again. Clare wasn’t going to get bent out of shape over a game unless it got taken too far. The image of K.C and Jenna flirting with each other right in front of her was burned into her memory forever. “I need to participate too to capture the true spirit of the Host club for the Daily.” Clare teased, grinning at Kota. “You enjoy me putting my foot in my mouth.” She mock gasped. “That’s okay if they aren’t going for realism. Besides there are some things you can’t do anything about. I mean have you seen Alli’s long thick eyelashes?” Clare laughed. She was a little jealous of them. “Yeah, good point. The kids who actually attend the school will have to do the ‘heavy lifting’. My dad explained the currency to me. A dollar equals over 111 Japanese yen. Thank god for computers to tell me what change to give.” She smiled at Kota when he said he’d follow her. “If I got pregnant, I guess we’d find a way to make it work with college. Emi will be in elementary school so only the baby would need daycare. I’d get to have a journalism career. Hopefully there won’t be a baby until we decide we want one though.” She nodded. “You have a lot of options and so do I. I know I want to go to Columbia but there’s exchange student programs there too.” Clare could go back to Japan or spend a year in another country. “Of course I expect us to visit each other if we go to different colleges. Jimmy Fallon? Really? He wants you to come on the show?” Clare asked a small note of skepticism in her voice. “I took Emi being part of the package into consideration before I said yes to dating you. The only hesitation I’ve ever had was my parents. Nothing on my end. You’re both worth it.” Clare chuckled about Canada paying the bill. “Our baby would have dual citizenship. That’s pretty cool.” She kissed Kota, only stopping to say. “Yes, if we can talk about it we might be ready for more. If we can’t, we’re definitely not ready yet.” Clare kissed him again. “Noo. No I’m going! Alli will have to settle for a t-shirt. I wouldn’t miss the mystery concert for the world. Too many what ifs for the rest of my life especially if I like them. I’d die. Also no else at Degrassi has ever had backstage passes to anything, probably.” Clare shook her head. “Obviously I think he’s charming so I can understand people, even famous ones, liking him and inviting him to things. What is bizarre to me is how does Kota meet them in the first place? You know yourself, it’s hard to get those kind of opportunities.” Melanie was a famous singer now. However, it took time for her to be recognized. Before she went on The Voice she was just a normal teenager like them. “How are you able to talk to them in the first place? Long enough for them to realize you’re a designer?” Celebrities usually had body guards to keep fans away. “Sure, I’m ready for lunch. Um how does this work? Does Melanie usually put on a disguise and go wherever she wants or are there certain restaurants you can ask for a private room at? Or do you order take out?” She asked curiously looking back forth between Kota and Melanie.
Kota: listened to Clare and chuckled a bit when she mentioned True Bloods. "I've seen American Pie with Dom and my mom. She sat us both down while our brothers were at a sleep over and pressed play. Honestly, I still don't know how I felt watching that with my mom and twin. The whole movie was about sex, when someone says 'One time at band camp...' or anything referring to a time at band camp and you know they've never been they're referring to American Pie. In the movie the Naked Mile you seen the girls fully naked. I've also seen Skins UK which shows a few guys naked and just breasts and both guys and girl's buts. They also showed them having sex, not full blown, but the movements and sounds." he shrugged. "I've also seen some porn, seems overrated to me." he looked over at her when she mentioned her distaste for fish. "Not all sushi has fish, some have imitation crab. And I'm taking someone who doesn't like fish to Japan." he laughed a bit. "That limits the food you can eat. Japanese eat a lot of fish, I'm guessing you won't eat seaweed either?" He asked curiously. "You'll probably learn how to cook fish if you go to someone's house. It's a staple in Japan along with stuff I won't eat. We'll also probably have weekends without Emi, she's already making plans." he added and listened as she mentioned the event he may be partaking in. "I wouldn't kiss them. Some girls see kissing on the same level as sex. I don't want to give anyone that idea, besides I see kissing other girls that aren't you as cheating. I wouldn't do it unless I absolutely had to such as a play." he stated and laced their fingers together. "If you really want to be part of it, I can see if you can be a waitress. I mean it's for Kendo so the guys know English." he shrugged and laugh a bit. "I think it's cute." he smiled and rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb. "I have seen her long eyelashes. If your dad explained the currency to you, you're not allowed to try to do the math when we go clothes shopping. Also you may not want to go grocery shopping with us. They sell turtles dead wrapped up and ready to be eaten also alive and they sell mystery meat, if you ask what it is they just tell you the animal, they get it cut it up, and mix it together organs and all." he added. "I hope we don't have one until we agree either." he nodded. "That's true and we have summer off regardless. Japan is only 14 hours ahead of us and yea he's asked a few times." he smiled. He was happy that Clare took her into the package before they started dating although he wasn't aware of how long she'd be in his life. "I'm happy your only hesitation was your parents, but I mean if they forbid us to date we can hide it from them." he shrugged. "I agree about our future baby having duel citizenship, it is pretty cool." he said against her lips and looked at her when she stopped. "I agree." he whispered against her lips. A soft chuckle fell from his lips when Clare mentioned a T-shirt for Alli. "I don't really know if that's possible. Normally we go get a bite to eat after or go have fun. I mean we can try to sneak while she's getting her disguise on..." he shrugged. Kota looked at Mel when Clare mentioned the people Kota met and the opportunities he's had. "It's different for designers especially for famous ones like Kota. Murder Bunny is bigger in America than it is here. America is more about Fashion, TV, and finally music. I'm slowly getting into fashion, my perfume came out as did my lipstick line. Kota came up with Murder Bunny and when it released in America with it's own cell phone cases and shirts, it took off. I met him when I went to a fashion show I knew he was going to be at, other's met him at a different fashion show. Jimmy Fallon wears Murder Bunny, a lot of famous people like the line as well. The media in America is wondering if Kota being a sixteen year-old can keep up with the fashion demand in all three countries and he seems to be doing a great job. He's pretty high up there in the fashion world." she explained to Clare. "He gets to meet the actors, singers, and models I don't. In order for me to meet some of the people Kota has I have to be as big as Fallout Boy and Taylor Swift." Mel explained and looked at Kota. "Also Adam is mad at you for rejecting his call. Apparently Behati wants to talk to you about swim suits and Behati said 'tell Kota to teach me how to put on the clothes properly.' It would be nice if you explained." she said. "I'll answer both of your questions and Clare, there's a reason I didn't tell you this yet. I met most of the celebrities at the Victoria's Secret Fashion show when I got a call saying that the Murder Bunny lingerie line was working. It's exclusive to Victoria's Secret shops so I agreed. I got a call from Jimmy Fallon asking to do an interview, but I had school. After that I got a few more calls to do interviews, but school had to come first then the show. The girls didn't really put their bras on right, the people Victoria hired to dress the models told me to just stick my hand in their bras to help. I told Cara how to fix it, in turn she took her bra off in front of me, handed it to me, then told me to put it on her. It was extremely awkward to say the least. I told her to put it on herself, put her hand in her bra, and that's when she put my hand in her bra and said to fix them. That's what Behati wants me to teach her. I will not be touching her breasts." he explained. "What's the proper way to put on a bra?" Melanie asked him. "Put your arms in the straps, bend forwards allowing them to fall perfectly in the cups as you fasten the back, stand up straight and that's it. Don't push up the bottom or pull it down, it won't give much comfort, also a wire bra isn't healthy for your circulation and doesn't support tissue growth, wireless is better for your health." he informed Mel. "I normally clip my bra around my stomach, turn the front towards me and then put the straps on." she said looking at him. "Your bra is on wrong. If you fix it like I told you, it'll feel better." he said and motioned to a room she can change in if she wanted to. "Talking to them long enough is easy. After the online store opened in America I opened an actual store with my grandpa's help. He cut the ribbon since I couldn't be there due to school, then I got a call to do a fashion show. Celebrities attended such as Rihanna and she approached me after the show asking me to make her a custom outfit. We sat down for a few hours and designed it together, then she told her friends and word got out to them. I even designed a giant MB bow with Sia which she wore and sent me a thank you picture." he said reaching for the picture of her smiling as her hair hid her eyes as usual, her hand pointing to the giant bow head band. "She sent a thank you letter with it." he said handing it to Clare. The letter reading 'Thank you so much for bow, it was worth the cost and chatting with you. Best wishes and stay in touch xox Sia.' "I have a few things like that from various people." he added and knocked on the door to the room Melanie was in. "Clare's ready to eat." he said loudly. "In America, I put on a disguise. Normally a big billed hat, dark glasses, and just dress like myself. I still get recognized once in a while, but normally they only want a picture or an autograph. Mel is putting on her disguise now." he said honestly as the door opened and Mel walked out wearing a wig with long black hair, a plain blue skirt with a Nirvana band tee on and black Chuck Taylors with her normal ruffle socks. "Don't you need your disguise?" she asked. "No, I'm not that famous here. We hold hockey higher than fashion, music is above fashion here." he said honestly as he held Clare's hand and lead them out. When they got to the car Kota opened the passenger door to his car for Clare and the back door for Mel, then shut them and got in on his side and started to drive. "Where are we eating?" he asked looking at the girls. "Clare?" Mel asked and Kota looked at her. "The mall or ---" he trailed off.
