There's something so special about Spencer finally winning Trina over romantically by just letting her know he sees her. After all of his attempts to impress with grand gesture after grand gesture failed spectacularly. It was him just wanting to be there for her and make her feel better that finally opened Trina's eyes to how genuine his feelings are for her.
And I love that it wasn't some generic "I love you" (like a certain dead cop). Trina was questioning who she was and Spencer whipped out that speech detailing every single part of her personality with ease. It's like he told her all the reasons he loved her before actually telling her he loves her. It had real "I like you and I love you" energy.
Even in another universe where he wasn't crazy attracted to her, she would probably still be one of his favorite people. That's so much deeper than lust or infatuation. And now Trina knows that for sure. He definitely made up for burning that letter with that speech.

Gender Fucked Falsettos Dreamcast
So, I feel like Falsettos is one of those shows that you can't fully gender bend, because the character's genders are central to the plot (Marvin and Whizzer have to be gay men, Charlotte and Cordelia have to be lesbians, Trina and Mendel have to be the token straights). However, I do think it would be very possible and also amazing to have all the actors in drag. I did do this casting using current bigger names, but it would be amazing to have this show done with only drag kings and queens.
Marvin: Rachel Bloom
She plays an asshole really well on Crazy-Ex Girlfriend, so I think she'd be great for Marvin. Also, alto rights.
Trina: Daniel Radcliffe
Please, Broadway Backwards, give me Daniel Radcliffe doing I'm Breaking Down. He also isn't afraid of gender-fuckery parts (I have no idea what show the clip is from, but I have seen his She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain drag performance more times than I can count) and I think he would do great as this neurotic mess of a character.
Whizzer: Kat Graham
She's a great actress, and got absolutely shafted by the Vampire Diaries. Also a really great singer. I think she deserves a better career, and I think she would be a great Whizzer. Whizzer is a tough one, because of the difference between Act 1 and Act 2 Whizzer, and I think she would be able to pull it off. (Sorry for the vagueness, I'm trying to be as spoiler free as possible).
Mendel: Julie Benko
The people's Fanny Brice is an absolute powerhouse, and I think she could kill any part, but I think her endearing nature would make a great Mendel. Also, I just have a feeling her and Daniel Radcliffe would play really well off each other.
Charlotte: Daveed Diggs
I'll be honest, I can't think of a part Daveed Diggs wouldn't kill.
Cordelia: Jan Sport
I just want to hear her do "You save lives and I save chicken fat. I can't fucking deal with that". Also, she has some strong ass high notes.

why didn't Beyoncé show(more) blk country artists.. on only 2 songs isn't much out of 23 songs on the album. Not even their own verses. Just crammed four black female country singers into a 2 minute song and they're all doing background vocals for Bey😒 there's enough songs where each could have had a feature and showcase their voices. On Blackbird they barely get focus, much less individually. It only lends credence to ppl who think she doesn't want another blk female to outshine her. Why aren't (Chloe and Halle) featured at all, since they're signed to her label.
Songs on the album remind me of Renaissance with more rap and guitar/fiddle loops as part of instrumentation. The upbeat songs/part of the songs had a house vibe. House with a rap/trap flow with lyrics about country stuff. Album def was not country.
Spaghetti was horrible. wish she'd stop rapping. She was a better artist before she started trying to take Jay-Z's job. She really wants the public to believe she's "not in a gang but got shooters." Okk..I know she made the cut as Trina's favorite rapper, but be real.
Half the album was placating one audience, other half to placate the white country fans. Would've been amazing if she stopped trying to appeal to everybody and their mother and their mother's ain't shit hillbilly cousin who's burning a hole in the carpet with their crackpipe as we speak and just said something truly thought provoking or opinionated. Or featured all blk artists. Something innovative in that regard, since she's in an experimental mood. production on American Requiem was cool..didn't say anything wild, basically just that she's confused as to why ppl don't consider her country by default bec of her Houston accent, and that America has a lot of red in its flag. She has a nice higher register in Daughter - the song reminds me of Halle's song Angel. On Most Wanted she gave Miley a whole feature and Miley's voice is just effortlessly country and outdid her on her own song. Miley's version of Jolene is actually better too. Taylor Swift did background vocals on Bodyguard.
Also wondering why she didn't feature Halle when Halle would have killed the light airy vocals.
There wasn't a strong hook on any of the songs to make one really stand out. And some of the songs didn't make sense to me. For ex. on spaghetti she says she's on a fishing expedition, but she's cooking chicken. Is she going fishing or is she cooking chicken? And what does any of that have to do with spaghetti. And in another song ('just for fun') she literally says she's a man. Was that a typo from the songwriter? Shouldn't it say woman. Also in 'Tyrant' it's unclear as to whether she's in a shootout or in a one night stand. In the same song, her body is howling but it's 'on sight' with an owl. Is she in the mood or is she fighting with a damn owl. Like I'm so confused. Then In 'Bodyguard' she says she's in a moshpit. I thought this was suppose to be country not heavy metal. I don't think she and her songwriters are on the same page. Maybe they have beef with her.
And why does she always have to keep reminding everyone who her husband is? It's like she feels obligated to attach herself to Jay-Z with every project. The Mrs Carter Tour, Cowboy Carter, "heyyyy Ms Carter." I get that's your husband but doesn't he have his own career? You don't need to enmesh his identity with yours. We don't care about Jay-Z.

Stormveil Castle Chapel
At this point my only options were to press forward into the gauntlet, or go to the bridge. Neither one seemed productive, so I returned to the tower and exited out the main door.
Tumblr media
A bunch of Stormhawks sitting on explosive barrels. So that's how it's gonna be then.
Tumblr media
Once I'd dealt with them (with only minor burns for my troubles), I went down the stairs to discover the walkway terminated at a roof. That's a bit strange, I thought. Clearly, there were different architectural plans at work. Which one came first though?
I continued across the roof, into a round tower, out onto another roof, and it was about then I recognized this architecture as a church. It was in much better condition than any other church I've seen so far, which could be chalked up to either novelty or frequent use.
Tumblr media
I dropped down through a window and saw Sorcerer Rogier waiting for me near the altar. Well, I'm flattered, but we barely know each other.
We talked for a bit and he asked why I came here. I told him I was here for Godrick's Great Rune, and he extrapolated from that that I must still be able to see the Guidance of Grace. Impressive. Definitely a good head on his shoulders. He can't see it anymore, but offered me his help in the form of combat arts, including a way to throw glintstone pebbles from my sword and a couple Carian sorceries. One for use by "Carian princesses." Of course, I bought that one.
Rogier had this to say:
The battle art you've learned is of the glintstone family. They were conceived at the great Academy of Raya Lucaria, to the north of this castle. In the past, they obeyed laws which contravened the Golden Order, or so I'm told. Fascinating, isn't it? That the Golden Order was pliable enough to absorb practices that contradicted itself in the past. With the Order broken, twisted, and in need of repair, such adaptability is more important now than ever.
A similar sentiment echoed by Kenneth Haight. I wonder if the loss of this flexibility coincided with the rise of Golden Order Fundamentalism? After all, if all truth is to be found in the Golden Order, then everything outside that order must be a lie. Was it the Shattering that gave rise to such a rigid orthodoxy, or was it already on the ascent beforehand? Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Tumblr media
Before leaving, I took a look at the statues on the altar. Elsewhere, I've only seen representations of Marika or Godfrey. So who's this? Three bald androgynous figures, one of them surrounded by sprouting plants, the others just holding branches.
Reminded me of representations from a heretical religion back home, the Carpenters. The Carpenter's Father was often depicted with a branching staff, sometimes with some dejected male figures with regular staves. The story is, he was selected to wed the Carpenter's Mother through a ritual. Seeds were planted in men's staffs, and the first to flower would be chosen. One man's staff immediately burst into white lilies (Note: St. Trina??), and he became the father of their god.
I mean, yeah, a staff bursting into seed is the traditional way a man becomes a father, but religious types rarely find the humor in pointing that out.
Regardless, there are clear parallels. The two on the sides look downcast, while the one in the center is consumed in ecstasy as hers explodes in blossoms. It was clearly a selection ceremony of some kind, but what for?
I bid Rogier good day and left the chapel, but it was only on my way out that I realized he hadn't told me why he was here.
What was the selection ceremony for?
Who was depicted as the winner?
Why does this chapel alone reflect this ceremony?
Is this the remnant of some older religion, or a more recent heresy?
What is Rogier searching for in the castle?
What is his relationship with the Carians?

Day 53: Your day, in great detail
Today I woke up and started thinking about how that job hasn't emailed me back yet, even though they said they were gonna. I hated thinking about that, so I started thinking about mine and the Mailman's characters. I sat down at my computer and wrote a follow-up email to the hiring manager. After that I logged onto work (still thinking about Professor Glenn MaClanahan, Trina Dolton, and their ~*~forbidden romance.~*~) My boyfriend calls to wish me a good morning, like he does every morning, and we talk for a little bit while he delivers the mail. I vent about the job, and he tells me to try not to worry about it until the end of the week, which was good advice. Instead, we start doing some (safe for work and very cool) narrative crafting. We tell each other we love each other about 15 times (lowballing it.)
I have my meeting with another department lead, and we talk about rating photography and illustration portfolios that have come through for us to market. I have a nice time speaking with her and I think about how it's going to be sad to leave. Simultaneously, messages in the Executive chat spell a not-so-positive company outlook. I quickly overcome the sadness about potentially leaving.
After more (very important narrative crafting) on my break, I call my boyfriend and talk to him about how thankful I am for his presence in my life, and that he's made a very stressful week way less stressful. We find about 15 different ways call each other hot (lowballing it, honestly.)
I obsessively check my email and LinkedIn, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over, but the email never comes. I throw myself into the world of East Texas University for some more (completely necessary character building.) I think about how nobody will ever compare to the way my Mailman DM's that game.
Work ends. I text a few friends and wonder if I'm still seeing a movie with one of them tonight. It is unceremoniously cancelled.
It's raining hard. My boyfriend calls me to come over instead of sitting in my room being anxious and sad about the job. I drive over, thinking about how it might be raining this hard the first time Trina Dolton shows up at GlenMac's door in the middle of the night (for fear that he may be in grave danger!)
I come over and he makes me a chicken sandwich on texas toast. I kiss that boy!! We run some character improv exercises and talk about the campaign a bit. We cuddle on the couch and he puts on a Western movie, A Fistful of Dollars. It kind of goes over my head a bit but I love hearing him talk about movies and he let me watch Zac Efron's 17 Again yesterday, so. That's love.
After the movie ends I start talking about the job again. "I can't believe a human would do that to another human! Promise an interview and then not follow up!"
"What was the exact wording of the last email he sent?"
"It said," I started, refreshing my inbox, "that—"
One new message!
An apology that it had taken a few days to get back to me, and that the second interview will be this Friday. I'm dumbfounded. Who sends an email at 10 o'clock at night!!
My boyfriend makes fun of me for worrying. I smile, I kiss him, and after a little bit, I head home to start writing this.

What was the last place you went out to eat? Today's itinerary was the exact same as last week's. We went to Mama Lou's again for lunch then made a quick stop at Blk 513 for froyo – or in my case, toppings with a deliberate request to lessen the yogurt because I actually don't like the yo part of froyo.
Do you have a lot of clutter in your home? A bit, but we're good at hiding them. We have drawers in each bedroom to keep said clutter and also have storage space under the stairs for the same purpose. We just like to keep certain things in case we might need them in the future.
What was the last pill you took? 💊 I took a Strepsils if that counts; but if it doesn't, I had a Biogesic a few months ago for a headache.
Are you happy with your current doctor? 👩‍⚕️ I don't have a regular doctor.
Is there a bottle of Benadryl in your medicine cabinet? As far as I know, no there isn't.

Do you prefer pizza or hot dogs? 🌭🍕 Pizza.

What color are your fingernails painted? They're never painted.
Is anyone in your family currently in the military? Nope.
What was the last thing you bought at the dollar store? We don't have dollar stores, but the last I think I picked up at the closest equivalent store we have were some toys for the dogs.
Are prices of things going up where you live? Yes, inflation is very much felt. It wouldn't be as big of a problem if salaries/wages were adjusted accordingly, but that's not happening, and we're all just trying to play catch-up with the rising costs.
What color was the last carpet you sat on? Brown.
What is your favorite dog breed? Beagles, Samoyeds, and golden retrievers.
When was the last time you wore make-up? 💄 This morning. It was my usual minimal setup of concealer and BB cream (if the latter even counts?) because I don't even own anything else beyond those two + foundation.
What was the last thing you ordered at the last restaurant you went to? Risotto, pizza with prosciutto and mushrooms, truffle mac and cheese, mozzarella sticks. I also ordered an iced cappuccino which was never able to make it to our table, lol.

Name three people you know, if any, that currently live in another country. Trina, Ysa, Pia.
Name three people you know who are from another country (and what countries?) My co-worker's husband is a foreigner but I still haven't been able to make out if he's from the States or somewhere in Europe lol; an aunt's husband is from Vietnam, and another aunt's husband is from New Zealand. I don't know a lot of non-Filipinos as I don't run into a lot of them.
What are your grandmas’ names? Eh, no thanks.
Have you ever heard of “fairy hair”? (It’s tinsel in the hair that gets put in permanently…it’s like tinsel highlights.) Just because of this survey that I think I've taken 3 times lol.
Have you found any gray hairs on your head? Some strands here and there, yes.
If applicable, how old were you when you found your first gray hair? I think I was around 11. They've showed up a handful times since throughout high school and college, but it's limited to individual strands.
Do you think you will dye your hair when it’s gone gray? I'm already dyeing my hair as it is, so this is definitely a possibility once the grey starts breaking out for good.
Do you have a sister-in-law? I guess I can say that now, yeah! I count Katrina as an SIL.
Do you have a brother-in-law? I don't.
When was the last time you went swimming? 👙☀️ Must be over a year ago. I haven't been to the beach much, save for a quick day trip last month – that was for work reasons though, and it wouldn't have been an appropriate time to swim in the beach.
Do you own a bikini? Sure.
What color is your bike, if you own one? I don't own one, because I can't ride a bicycle.
If you were a rockstar, what color guitar would you have? 🎸 Purple.

Do you like sushi? 🍣 Very much; I'd never ever turn it down.
When was the last time you had sushi? 🍱 Last weekend.
Can you see a box from where you are sitting right now? Nopes.
Would you rather sing or dance? 🎤💃 Sing, but that's not to say I'm any good at either.
What color was the last sports bra you wore, if applicable? Black.
What is your nicest neighbor’s name? I can't remember her name anymore, but it was the househelp of a neighbor who helped me get a trike a year ago. We hadn't met each other until that point, but she was so so nice for taking the time to help me out and for even leading me to a street corner where I'd be more likely to hail one.
Would you rather have a personal chef or personal house cleaner? Chef.
Do you have any zits on your face right now? On my nose and left cheek :(
Do you wear glasses or contacts? I have glasses.
How many Britney Spears albums have you owned? I love Britney, but not enough to own her albums. I collected Beyoncé's instead and owned every CD/DVD up until Lemonade – the streaming era happened and as far as I know they also stopped releasing physical CDs here starting from Lemonade. :(
What was the first concert you went to? Paramore in 2013.
Do you like cheese? 🧀 Yeah, but not obsessed.
What are three of your favorite things to sprinkle cheese on top of? Pasta...and that's it really.

Have you ever had to take steroids? 💊 Nope.
What are three of the worst withdrawal effects or side effects you have experienced from a medication? 💊 Not a medication, but a vaccine – high fever and feeling like fucking glass. I don't think I moved for like 12 hours lmao.
What are three things you like about church? Nothing.
What are three things you dislike about church? Everything.
Does your town have a horse and carriage company? Nope.
Who are three of the biggest jerks you know? I don't know a lot of big jerks.

Have you ever had a friend named Sarah? I have a workmate with the name but wouldn't consider her a friend.
Did you go to school with a Suzy? No.
What was the name of the person who bullied you the most in high school? I wasn't bullied in high school but my biggest ones were everyone who gave me shit for my name and short hair and called me a boy as a kid. As a four year old it just felt like the whole world teaming up to gang up on me, and I thought everything was meant to be that way. I didn't know anything back then, so I naturally thought well maybe I deserved to be bullied like that? Maybe that's just how the world works? Lol it had long-term effects on my confidence and in the way I'd deal with people that I, really, was only able to rectify once I got out of school.
Do you know someone named Matthew? I know a few people with that name but none of them go by Matthew.
…Mark? I don't think so.
….Luke? Yes.
….John? Loads. John is an extremely common first name but it's the kind of name that's rarely used, same as Maria. Most Johns I know go by their second name.
Have you ever been friends with an Ashley? Nope.

….a Jessica? I haven't.
….a David? I know a David but do not consider them a friend.
Have you ever dated a Matthew? Nope.

What was the last type of pie you ate? I never have pie.
Are you happy today? Little bit, yeah.
What time did you wake up this morning? 12 AM because I needed to report to a work event by 2 AM.

My friend made the horrible decision to make a bet against me about Falsettos. I won. Because obviously. My reward was forcing him to watch Falsettos for his first time. This is how that experience went:
My friend thinks Trina is annoying. I will not accept this Trina slander.
My friend hates "I'm Breaking Down" because it's repetitive. My breakdowns are repetitive. That's why it's the most iconic song.
My friend called the song “March of the Falsettos” a creepy drug trip comparable to a 1980s horror movie. I had to refrain from explaining all the symbolism of it, which I failed miserably as I explained the deep themes of masculinity.
My friend took his phone out during “Father to Son” and “More Racquetball” for about five seconds. I am just as offended as when he fell asleep while listening to the soundtrack a couple weeks back and not getting my references to the lyrics.
My friend made the astute observation: “He definitely has a boner.” I'm sure you can guess who he was talking about.
My friend remarked that Cordelia's chicken soup would make Whizzer sicker. I can't say I disagree. Thank the Jewish Lord I almost believe in she learned to cook.
My friend really does not understand the concept of a reprise. The chorus is not a reprise.
Update: his favorite character is Whizzer. Understandable. He hates Marvin with a burning passion. Unacceptable.
“This is the closest time I actually cried. What happened to me? I fell from grace.” Direct quote, word for word. He never felt this way before, not even for his secret love: West Side Story.
People, I successfully converted him into a Falsettos fan. Before, he was insulting it to get a rise out of me. Now he almost feels bad about insulting it and it's rivaling with West Side Story. I call this the ultimate win. Next I will show him In Trousers. Then he can discover what a real drug trip is.

Sidney and Seraphina: 2 and 22
Sidney and Evie: 7 and 27
I will have to do these as separate posts. This is Sidney and Evie "That's Not Why We are doing this" I was inspired by this story
Word Count- just under 1K
@penstxgal1968 @pattiemac1 @equallyshaw @heatherloves87
To read more about Sidney and Evie- Chapter One- Never Have I- https://starshine-hockey-girl.tumblr.com/post/658986447888695296/never-ever-have-
Crosby House- Last week
Sidney walked in from the living room to find Evie digging in her mother’s recipe box. “Oh Evie, what are you making?” he asked excitedly. She didn’t often dip into her mother’s recipes but when she did, the results were mouthwatering.  
“I am going to make some banana bread,” she said as she continued to dig, “I want to use up these bananas before you leave for your road trip. My Mamaw’s recipe is somewhere in here.” 
“No, if you are going to make banana bread, you need to use my Nana’s recipe. It’s the best I ever had,” Sidney countered. 
Evie looked up with annoyance. “You haven’t tried my Mamaw’s recipe. She won a blue ribbon at the state fair with it.” 
“That may be true, but I guarantee that my Nana’s is better,” Sidney challenged. 
“Are you turning this into a whose grandmother has the better banana bread recipe competition? That’s not why I am doing this. I know my Mamaw’s recipe is the best and I don’t need to prove it,” Evie sniped. 
“Sounds like you aren’t that confident if you aren’t willing to prove it,” Sidney teased. 
Evie split the bananas in half and tossed one bunch to Sidney. “Okay,” she huffed, “who is judging?” 
“I will take them into practice and have the team vote,” he answered. 
“Yeah, like that will be impartial,” she rolled her eyes. 
“Bok, Bok, Bok,” he teased, “Don’t be a chicken, Evie.”
“Shut up and get out of my kitchen. You can make your bread after me. I don’t want you spying on my technique,” she scolded him.
“Whatever, I am not scared,” Sidney laughed. When he got into the living room, he called his mom. “Hi, do you have Nana’s recipe for her banana bread?” he asked. 
“What recipe? Nana didn’t make banana bread,” Trina answered. 
“Yes, she did. We had it every Christmas morning.” Sidney replied. 
“She didn’t make banana bread though. Mrs. Nixon next door did and she always gave Nana a couple of loaves at Christmas,” Trina stated. 
“What? You’re kidding me,” he groaned. 
“Sid, did you ever see her make banana bread?” Trina laughed, “Why do you ask?”
“I told Evie that Nana’s recipe was better than her Mamaw’s recipe. Now we are in a baking challenge and I don’t even have a recipe to use,” he admitted.
“You challenged Evie in a baking competition?” Trina grinned, “Good luck with that.”
“Thanks for the vote of confidence, Mom,” Sidney whined. 
“Sorry, I am just being a realist. Use google and find a recipe. I am sure it will be fine,” she encouraged. 
“By the way, what’s the prize?” she asked.
“Pride,” he responded. 
“Yeah, you are going down. Love you though,” she said before she hung up.
THE NEXT DAY- UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex
Sidney carefully set up the containers of banana bread and slips of paper on the table. Sullivan approached him from behind, “What’s up with this, Sid?”
Sidney stood up. “Evie and I have a bet on who’s banana bread recipe is better. I said I would get the guys to vote on it.” 
Sully’s eyes raised, “Oh really? It’s not labeled so we vote objectively.”
Sidney put on the finishing touches- voting slips and sealed container for votes to be placed. “Yes, I want Evie to have a fair shot at winning.”
Sully laughed, “Keep telling yourself that.”
Sidney loitered around the table and corralled his teammates to vote in the contest. Most looked at him like he had three heads. Rust questioned, “A contest about banana bread? Seriously?” They were used to indulging Crosby’s quirks, but this took it to a new level.  
Jake Gruentzel took a bite of both samples as Sidney closely. Geno watched in mild bemusement. After seventeen years, nothing about Sidney’s quirks fazed him. Sidney quizzed Gruentzel “So which do you like? sample A or sample B?” There was a slight emphasis on the words “Sample B.” 
Jake paused, “Ummmm, I think sample A. It is very moist.” He felt Sidney’s stare and he stammered, “On second thought, sample B is better.” 
Geno looked at Sid, ate each sample and proclaimed, “Sample A is better. Sample B is too dry. Need drink to wash it down.” Jake looked up and changed his vote back to A. 
Sidney whined, “Geno- really? Seventeen seasons earns me no loyalty?”
Geno laughed, “I don’t give pity votes. You’re stupid for making it a contest.”
Sidney’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Who said it was my idea to make it a contest?” The team erupted in laughter. 
LATER THAT NIGHT- Crosby House
Sidney pouted as Evie gloated about her victory on the phone with his mother. She turned to Sidney and exclaimed “Your Nana didn’t even make banana bread? You decided to still compete with a recipe from Google?” 
Sidney shrugged his shoulders, “It was worth a shot.”
Evie hung up her call and walked over to him, “Or you could have not made it a contest at all. There’s a thought.”
Sidney wrapped his arms around her waist, “Where is the fun in that, Evita?”
Evie rested her head on his chest, “What is my prize by the way??”
Sidney sighed, “My undying love and devotion isn’t enough?” She shook her head no. “Fine, one pair of shoes,” he smiled. 
“You know me so well,” she cooed. 
“I could give you sexual favors instead. You know, do that thing that you like,” he suggested. 
“Nah, I don’t fuck losers,” she laughed. 
“That’s it! I demand a rematch- your brownies versus mine,” he huffed as he threw over her shoulder and carried her upstairs. 
“That’s okay. I don’t mind kicking your ass again,” she laughed.

Trina hitting Spencer with the knowing glance while he stares at her and doubles down on the true love talk. She's definitely gonna get that confession of feelings out of him. I believe in her.
I think she's ready for it too because this is the first time we didn't see Trina run and squirm away at the love talk. Typically when things get too deep and intimate, especially with Spencer, she panics. She seems a lot more at peace with her thing with Spencer, as undefined and chaotic as it is.

I’ve already posted all the character profiles from Breaking the Boundary, but I want to post them all separately too. Besides, the first theme for OC-tober is introduction, so why not use it.
This was a difficult thing to write an ID for...
[Image ID:
A page out of a scrapbook, filled with various pictures, colourful stickers and notes written by the creator of the scrapbook. There are six pictures in the page.
The page is titled: Ryan Freitas, libra, October 1. Eye color: like strong black tea. Instagram handle: r.freitas
First picture: A photo of Ryan, presumably taken out of a yearbook. He has brown skin, reddish-brown hair and he is wearing a yellow shirt with a floral pattern. The background is abstract blue. Several star-shaped stickers surround him.
Second picture: Ryan and Jackie are looking at Jackie's phone and laughing. The background is greenery in a park. It is followed by comments: "Very rare smiling pic!" "Mom friend" (it is crossed out) "Upd: Gamer friend." Beneath the picture there is a screenshot of a tumblr post by vir9o. The post is a photo that says "Bonjour, ya'll" and a comment that says "when daveed doesn't know which act it is". The scrapbook author's comment says "They were laughing at this..."
Third picture: Ryan's legs in rolled-up jeans with bare ankles. He is standing on the ground covered in snow. The comments around this picture say: "It's 5F outside!!!"; "loyal"; "Stans Peter Liden #mood". The comments are surrounded by hand-drawn sparkles and hearts.
Fourth picture: Ryan is hugging a KFC bucket full of chicken legs with a pleased expression. The comment from the author says: "Would marry junk food if he could, proof."
Fifth picture: Very young Jackie and Ryan are wearing Halloween costumes of Jessie and Woodie from Toy Story. Jackie is holding a green pumpkin-shaped candy bucket, Ryan is holding an orange one. In the background there are Doris and Marcos, but their faces are not in the picture. Comments: "Most consistent friend duo award!!" and "Ryan and Jackie have been friends for 12 years (check info)."
Sixth picture: A group shot of eight kids and a teacher. One of the kids is Ryan, he is standing behind a synthesizer. There is writing on the picture that says "miss u guys..." An arrow is pointing at one of the girls with a note "I played Trina!" There is another arrow pointing at Ryan with a comment: "Used to play the synth in our production of Falsettos until our musical theatre group was shut down :("
End ID.]

I’m not upset at Spencer for wanting to be a big brother and believing Ace could have chicken pox nor am i upset with Trina for feeling sad and upset .
today was unnecessary angst to get them to NYC and that’s the only thing that matters not esther lame antics

I bet Spencer will still decide to go with Trina and then Esme will run to inform Portia all about it. Which, Sprina would get their date night. But Portia is probably going to see Spencer as an even bigger villain in her mind because he wasn't there for a baby with chicken pox.

Here’s the script for JoJo’s lost lion.
One day, the Little Einsteins were taking Silly Sock, Dizzy Dress, Blue Shoe and Polka Dot Pants to visit Circus Town. Silly Sock really wanted to meet JoJo Tickle the clown. They found her standing outside her house, which looked like a giant shoe! JoJo even introduced the team to her pet lion, Goliath. Then they saw JoJo’s friends, Skeebo, Croaky, Tater, Dinky, Trina and Bal Boa all heading to the school tent. When the Little Einsteins arrived, they met JoJo’s clown school teacher, Mrs. Kersplatski. She and her students were honored to meet their special visitors. And they adored hearing Silly Sock sing his funny song. Goliath the lion even showed that he can waddle and quack like a duck, which made the kids laugh. But then, there was trouble. Big Jet was snooping around. He swooped in with a big net in his Grab Nabber and he trapped Goliath and flew away to find the poachers! JoJo was very sad. But Silly Sock told her that the Little Einsteins will help her rescue Goliath from Big Jet. So they all climbed aboard Rocket and blasted off into the sky. They saw Big Jet wake up a bunch of squirting flowers, which are flowers that squirt water! So JoJo, Bal Boa & June did a special snake trance dance to get past the squirting flowers & nobody got wet. They chased Big Jet through a cream pie factory. Big Jet found the pie throwing machine and honked its orange clown nose, turning it on! The machine threw pies everywhere! Quickly, we all dodged the pies and Silly Sock turned off the pie throwing machine. They found Big Jet at Uncle Flippy’s funny farm. He had now used more nets to trap all the funny farm animals! The baby tigers, the baby penguins, and even the rubber chickens! Then, Big Jet put out his Three Speedy Boosters and blasted away! But Rocket knew what to do. He showed JoJo and her friends how he can fly super fast! He soon caught up to Big Jet and grabbed the nets! Big Jet was so mad, he wasn’t watching where he was going, and he crashed into itchy-ootchy flowers! And he flew away feeling very itchy. Annie freed Goliath from the net and the lion happily licked Annie’s cheek. And Mrs. Kersplatski declared that everyone shall do a special circus show, and the Little Einsteins will be the guests of honor to join the fun! The circus show was a huge success! JoJo explained that she learned that if you want to be a member of the Little Einsteins, you have to show that you’re smart and love music, especially when you make a new friend who’s a very silly sock. Everyone clapped, cheered and laughed and ringmaster Leo proudly said “Mission completion!” The end.

List 5 facts about a favorite sim of yours, and send this to 10 simblrs whose sims you adore ♥♥♥
We're going to do 'Policebear' or as she's properly named, Trina Stripes!
Tumblr media
She's Brave, has commitment issues, is good, athletic and ambitious. She's employed as a policebear in the township but she's only level one. Her lifetime aspiration is to master logic and athleticism. Her favorites are black, hamburgers and rockabilly music. She's a virgo.
Tumblr media
Skills in the obvious stuff like athletic, logic and some surprising ones like knitting and sewing. The one that surprised me the most is gambling! Perhaps Trina has a dark secret..
Tumblr media
You tell that rude chicken, Trina!
Tumblr media
Meadow Grass has never encountered a bear that didn't instantly love her. Trina is not all about this back to the farm life.
Tumblr media
She has 3 books in her inventory, Plan 8 from Lunar Lakes, Almond Madeline (recipe that she knows) and The Price of Treasure. She's also a witch. That doesn't seem like it should be a byline, but honestly being a policebear with a dark gambling secret kind of steals the show.
Tumblr media
She wishes Poufy a very happy birthday :)
