a/n. first wdw in weeks, wow... just a small thing for my vampire fellas. | masterlist

Your leg bounced up and down, the almost inaudible sound of the heel of your shoes hitting the wooden floor annoying the girl sitting next to you on the bed, the movements of your legs and the way you chewed on your bottom lip enough to get her annoyed.

Closing the book, Wednesday turned to you, eyes alternating between the irritating move and your features.

“Can you stop with that infuriating sound? It’s distracting me.”

“Uh?” You look at Wednesday, eyes darting from yours to your bouncing leg in a silent answer. “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t even notice it.”

“Now that you do, stop it.”

“I can’t control it.”

Wednesday took a deep breath, bringing her hand to rest on top of your knee, forcing you to stop. Somehow, your leg was still shaking under her touch and now, a heatwave spread inside your body at the sudden touch, a bright red color threatening to take over your vision, a sharp pain in your gums.

You closed your eyes, taking deep breaths and trying to take control over your instincts. But Addams being so close to you with her almost unnoticeable perfume and hand on your thigh, it was hard and any small thing coming from her was enough to get you to lose control.

“You’re starving, aren’t you?” All you could do was nod, not wanting her to see the sharp fangs that sunk on the inside of your mouth. Removing her hand from your leg, you felt a weight being placed on top of your body instead. “Open your eyes, let me take a look at them.”

“No,” you whispered, shaking your head.

“I wasn’t asking. Open them now and look at me.”

Despise the calming way she spoke, her words and demanding tone were enough to get you to do as you were told, unable to resist the smell she had; It was like a spell placed on you.

Wednesday brought her hands to your face, opening your lips to see the sharp fangs you were hiding, pressing the tip of a finger under one, a single drop of raven blood poking out of the small wound was enough to cover your lower lip with her movement.

“Wends…” You warned with a hoarse voice, controlling the impulse to lick the sweet blood off of your lip.

The dark, silky sheets under your hands ripping off around your nails, stopping you from digging the skin of her waist. Knowing Wednesday, she would definitely make you pay for a new set.

Ignoring the warning timbre in your voice, Wednesday opened her white blouse, dragging the fabric away from her shoulder area along with the strip of her bra.

“Take it.”

“No.”

“If you want to keep that snarky tongue of yours, I suggest you to stop fighting and just do as I am telling you to.”

The second you focused on the cold, pale skin, of her neck, everything around you turned red, melting as you caught the sound of her blood flowing through her body, the steady pace of her heartbeat, muffling every small sound that surrounded the both of you.

All you could hear, see and smell, came from the small girl sitting on your lap. And that was all that matters.

The red, warm, sweet blood that kept her alive. The blood of a Raven, Wednesday being the last one of her bloodline known to you.

Noticing the lack of motion coming from your frozen body, the Addams girl gently tugged you by the back of your head, bringing you closer to her.

“Take it.” She whispered; fingers lost in your hair. “It’s all yours.”

“All mine…” You replied, lost in your red reality, barely processing what left her lips, all you could hear, loud and clear, was the pumping of her jugular, the sweet blood rushing through her veins.

Leaning in, your nose brushed on the cold skin, taking a deep breath. The ghostly touch causing the other to close her eyes. You opened your mouth, enough for the tip of your tongue to touch her, a surprised sigh coming from Wednesday.

“I profoundly hate when you do that.”

“Are you sure? Because I can hear every beat of your heart.” You placed a kissed near her collarbones. “And the way your thighs are pressing against mine.” Another kiss, a little bit higher.

“Stop talking. It’s an order.”

You laughed against her, hands slowly moving from the silky sheets to her thighs. “You’re in no place to boss me around, Addams.”

“I thought you enjoyed being my little pet.”

“I enjoy more when you’re my prey.”

Looking into your eyes, Wednesday could barely see the color of it, dark red mixed with golden strings covering most of your iris, pupils dilated in a black color. The veins under your eyes, disappearing and appearing as if it was following the beat of a music, little did she know it was synchronized with her own heartbeat.

It always felt like that, to be under her spell, if felt paralyzing, something in the way Wednesday smelled and tasted like, so sweet it was like drinking honey.

For her, having your teeth sinking in her neck, poison spreading through your saliva turning the pain into pleasure in just a few seconds. She would never admit, but being your personal blood bag made the pain settle in between her thighs.

She needed you as much as you needed her.

Why else would she sit on your lap and keep you around? Allowing you to follow every single step of hers like a lost puppy, holding you on a tight leash, stopping you from biting others like a misbehaved puppy.

Gulping, she licked her lips, your eyes following every single movement of her body. She felt like an addicted waiting for the next jet of poison, it’s been days since the last time you fed on her.

“Did you drink from somebody else?” You shook your head. You tried to, actually, blood bags, human blood straight from the vein, animal blood that you captured with Eugene’s help; they all tasted like garbage. “Then why are you refusing to do as I tell you to?”

“Because I don’t want to hurt you.”

A small grin tugged on her lips. “I want you to hurt me.”

A gush of adrenaline ran in the veins under your eyes the second you heard her whisper, eyes filled with a specific glow that you almost never see in Wednesday: excitement.

The moment your fangs dug in the cold skin, a low moan escaped between Wednesday’s parted lips, the fingers in your hair pulling you impossible closer. The hot, thick red liquid filled your mouth, the iron taste almost unnoticeable, being replaced by a sweet taste that only she had.

Throwing her head back in an attempt to give you more access to her neck, she didn’t even notice that small rhythm her hips were following against your legs, rubbing herself on you. Her scent, stronger than ever, filling every centimeter of your lungs like smoke.

Moving your hands to her hips, you bruised the covered skin as you helped her steady movements. Opening her lips to take a deep breath soon became a breathless moan, your name escaping her parted lips as you drank more and more from her, the poison spreading through her veins as you lick the open wound, capturing what escaped from your hungry mouth before biting her again.

Wednesday was weak in your arms, the hot feeling in the pit of her stomach getting hotter and hotter as she rounded her hips on your leg, a wet stain on the fabric of your jeans as she came, eyes rolling to the back of her head and body falling back, being held by your hands.

Switching positions, you laid the small girl on her bed, dark silky sheets embracing her body as you laid on top of her to lick around her neck, not wasting a single drop of the precious blood that you couldn’t go without.

Kissing your way up to her face, Addams still had her eyes closed, a fainted reddish color spread on her cheeks as she came down from her high. When she opened her eyes, she was met with your golden ones, shining like a star in the night sky. She caressed your face, thumb swiping your lips to collect the thick liquid that covered them before gently sucking on them, maintaining the eye contact; a satisfied hum in her throat.

“Kiss me. I want to taste my blood on your tongue.”

As she commanded, you connected your lips together in a kiss that was soft at first, turning to bruising and desperate as her legs wrapped around your waist, pulling you in, lips wrapping around your tongue to get more of it before she breaks the kiss, hands moving to your shoulders.

“What are you doing?” You asked, confused, as she tried to push you down, but you, being stronger than her, didn’t move an inch.

“I need your tongue somewhere else, and I need it now, so be a good pet and collaborate with me.”

Wednesday was nearly screaming inside, her weak body in desperate need of you, one of the collateral damages from your poison. And the way you smelled, the way your hands touch her body, it was a lot more than just the venom that rushed in her veins, there was something else in the brownish glow that stared at you. You smiled.

“As you wish, master.”

Long Time Without You My Friend – Joe Keery

Joe's POV — 6 Years Ago

I looked around the room, my chest hurting when I saw all my friends and family throughout the house. Tomorrow, I was going to LA to start my acting career. About two months ago, I got the role of Steve Harrington in Netflix's new show, Stranger Things.

"Feeling nostalgic?"

I turned around, a smile instantly forming when I saw Y/N behind me holding a soda.

"It's hard not to," I chuckled. I looked down at my own can of soda, unable to get rid of this weird feeling in my stomach.

"Are you okay?" Y/N asked, her voice dripping with concern.

"I'm fine," I cleared my throat.

She sighed as she put down her drink. I didn't resist when she took mine and put it on the counter next to hers. She then grabbed my hand and pulled me to the backyard. Y/N let go of my hand, turned me around, and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Talk to me."

"I'm fine," I tried to say again but Y/N shook her head.

"I know you, Joe," she sighed. "Something's bothering you. Spill it."

"It's just. . ." I hesitated. I stalled by walking over and sitting on the bench. "I feel weird about leaving tomorrow."

I looked up to see Y/N smiling sadly. She walked over and sat next to me, instantly grabbing my hand.

"You're not excited about Hollywood?"

"I am," I stuttered. "I just didn't think about all that I was leaving. I'm not sure if I'm really going to be able to actually walk away."

"Your family's not going anywhere," she teased. I looked over at her, my breath getting caught in my throat.

"I was thinking more about you," I said, dropping my voice.

"Aww, Joe," she cooed as she leaned in and rested her head on my shoulder. "You'll never lose me."

"I hope not," I sighed. She looked up at me with her knowing pout.

"Joe," she whispered, "I'm serious. You're never going to lose me. Besides, if either one of us were to leave the other it'd be you leaving me."

"What?" I panicked. She looked up at me and instantly read me. She sat up and turned toward me.

"Be realistic, Joe," she said gently. "You're moving to LA. Your show is going to take off and you're not gonna look back."

"Please don't think that," I said quickly. "I don't care how popular this show gets. I could never not look back at you, Y/N."

"Joe," she tried to calm me down, "it's fine. You've been working hard for this. I'm proud of you. I hope you know how proud I am of. . ."

I cut her off by grabbing her face and smashing my lips to hers. She gasped in surprise but she didn't pull away. I felt like my entire world erupted as our lips were pressed together. Slowly, I took the chance and deepened our kiss. My stomach did flips when she responded exactly how I hoped she would. When reality hit me, I broke the kiss. I studied Y/N's face, trying to figure out what she was thinking.

"I could never walk away from you, Y/N."

Present Day

It's been four years since I left home. The first few months I was filming, I texted and called Y/N all the time. But as time went on, I got busy with filming and Y/N went to school. Even though I was reaching out to her, doesn't mean I'm not thinking about her. I am. Constantly.

Whenever I filmed a scene with Steve and Nancy, I thought about Y/N. When I kissed Natalie, I thought about Y/N. When I walked into my empty apartment after a long day, I thought about Y/N. I was constantly thinking about Y/N.

Even as I walked through Comi-Con, I thought about her. I froze when I looked up and saw a girl who looked exactly like my Y/N taking pictures. I was about to go talk to her, but I was pulled away and led to our next panel. I couldn't focus on anything. I was constantly scanning the crowd for any sign of Y/N.

Suddenly, a flash went off. I turned towards it and held my breath. Time seemed to slow down as the photographer slowly lowered the camera. When they did, I was looking at my Y/N.

Y/N lifted her hand with a shy smile on her face. Damn, I loved that smile. I didn't want to wave back. I wanted to jump off this stage, take her in my arms, and spend the rest of my life with her.

I watched as she sent me a wink before going back to work. Y/N got a job straight out of college working for a small magazine. She worked her way up to the biggest teen magazine in LA. She must be taking pictures for the magazine.

Throughout the rest of the panel, I watched Y/N. She took pictures of my cast and the fans. Suddenly, she pulled the camera away from her face again with a teasing smile. She waved the camera at me, silently telling me to smile.

I looked straight at her and gave her one of my award-winning smiles. She slightly rolled her eyes as she brought the camera back up and took my picture. When she lowered the camera again, she mouthed a quick 'thank you'. I could almost hear her saying it.

Y/N walked out of the room, leaving me dying to jump off this stage and run after her. Instead, I was ushered into a back room. I spent the entire briefing meeting thinking about my best friend.

My mind drifted to the last night I talked to her. I've thought about that night a lot. Part of me wonders what would have happened if I hadn't left the following morning. Would we have been together? Would we still be together? Would we be closer to spending the rest of our lives together?

"Alright, guys," our manager Tony said. "We leave in an hour. If you insist on going out there, be careful. We have security but they're spread pretty thin."

The second I heard I was allowed to leave, I sprinted out the door. I ignored the excited fans as I searched for my Y/N. When I saw her, she was taking pictures of a group of fans. I ran over to her, not bothering to call out her name.

When I got to her, I grabbed her elbow and spun her around. The second she was facing me, I pulled her into my chest and leaned down, smashing my lips onto hers.

She was surprised but slowly started kissing me back. Once she started, she deepened the kiss. When I broke the kiss, I smiled when I saw the surprise on Y/N's gorgeous face.

"Joe?" She gasped. I laughed when she wrapped her arms around my neck, pulling me closer. "I was wondering when I'd ever get to see you again."

"I promised I would never walk away from you."

Y/N looked down at our shoes, hoping it would hide her blush. It didn't but I loved it. I love being the reason she gets all shy and embarrassed.

"Shouldn't you be talking to fans or answering weird questions?" She asked, still studying our shoes.

"I'm all done," I shrugged, tightening my arms around her waist. "Plus, I'm not needed for anything else today."

"So you're free?" She asked under her breath as she slowly lifted her head.

"I'm all yours."

did people actually hate sahnsa or they just didn’t like her as much as arya and her stans and s*phiet took that personally?! her character is the worst written character in the show is unbelievable. a recycled cersei 2.0 and it’s all her and her ego’s fault. give dumb people some attention and they will never stop being annoying . i don’t know how but the writers were the whitest most cliched writers ever. they saw that cersei and sahnsa are dumb and get called dumb by everyone and said: yea that’s realism, that’s complex, guys they wear dresses and work through the system, they are politicians and no one hears them GUYS COMPLEXITY. meanwhile dany and arya just bc they are smart and bold and angry and do more then cersei or sahnsa ever did for ANYONE in their privileged lives in the books, were reduced to girl bosses of the show, one died bc no one loved her in contrast to amaZIng qitn, and the other didn’t care abt anything, not even being a hero who saved humanity, the connection to jon that they have in the books, pure and full of love, nonexistent obviously, and fucked away to god knows where. these two are the main female characters, the pillars on whom this story even had the grounds on when grrm started writing ?!?! how did they do this to these two??? I am glad dany stans took the show down. DESERVED. I don’t want Arya’s actress near the jonsnowshow, let them have their weird j*nsa show together with kit. s*phiet already trashed on arya and maisie..let s*phie and kit have their porn together they are so weird fr with each other. I can’t take anything seriously past s4. putting sahnsa on the center was thedowngrade. and I am glad the fans dragged it to filth. and they should drag it to filth till the books are out and u all get proved wrong. can’t believe they did this to emilia too!! arya and dany deserved better

What's funny is, that's exactly it. It's not that Sansa receives some super special, "feminine" only hatred from fandom it's just that she's not as popular as her stans (and Sophie) wanted her to be. The show did a lot to boost her importance and popularity BUT that also happened around the same time to quality of the writing started to go down. D&D were making changes as early as the first season of course, but when they decided to give Jeyne's plotline to Sansa they were officially done with adapting the books. And you know what? People noticed. They were, rightfully, calling out the poor writing of the entire show but Stansas (and Sophie 💀) took it personally because they liked the importance she was being handed. It wasn't even the writing itself that they liked because despite the increased emphasis on her character, she wasn't actually doing much in the later seasons. Along with that there were plenty of reasons to dislike how she was written. And it still didn't give her the popularity people wanted. Daenerys and Arya were, and are, still fan favorites despite how much they were flattened and warped. Stansa's just thought that she was so great that everyone would start hating Dany and Arya and fawn over their fave instead.

As for the actors, my sympathy's solely lie with Emilia. She was the one who cared the most about her character and having her accurately adapted from the books but the writer's went out of their way to destroy Dany. One of the reasons I want the books to be finished, besides the obvious, is because I want her to experience Dany getting the writing she deserves in some form at least. Arya's character was done dirty but at the time Maisie was fully on board with it (though to her credit she has since admitted that the ending was bad). You can tell Sophie was very invested in Sansa's perception (she was very much projecting on her and liked the favoritism), and she's probably the only cast member actually happy about the show ending. Kit's feelings towards the ending feel artificial and more rooted in him wanting to get his spin-off off the ground.

Tbh I do think that Sophie coming back for the spin-off is more unlikely then Maisie, just from the fact that Kit doesn't personally like Sanas's character which is pretty funny. If there's one thing we don't have to worry about it's Jonsa happening with him being involved in the writing. Not even having George on board would make me interested in whatever story they have to tell though because it has to follow that horrible show. I do love that D&D shot themselves in the foot with their writing; they got fired from the project they rushed to finish GOT for and the show is universally considered one of the worst series finales of all time 😂

#ask #anon #anti got #arya stark #daenerys targaryen #anti sansa stans #anti jonsa stans #long post #this was longer then expected but oh well 😭

Girls' Secret Party

"Yu Yu Hakusho 100% Maji Battle" Girls Event

This event was first held on November 7, 2019.

Story: Keiko, Botan, Shizuru, and Atsuko were having a girls' party. While the four girls are having a great time, Yusuke, who was kicked out of his house, is annoyed and alone. He runs into a delinquent with whom he had a fight before and...?

Video:

youtube

Translation:

“Girls' Secret Party”

Everyone: CHEERS!!

Atsuko: Hah, after all, an ice-cold beer is the best.

Botan: I prepared some sweets and snacks, so please eat until you're full.

Shizuru: Botan-chan, you're so thoughtful.

Botan: I heard we were staying the night, so I was right to go shopping!

Keiko: Atsuko-san, I am sorry for asking you to lend your apartment. I wish we could have stayed in my house...

Atsuko: No problem, never mind! Anyway, he's not coming back!

Keiko: What? ... Yusuke, he hasn't come home again?

Atsuko: Eh, oh, no! It's not that.

Atsuko: On the contrary, I'm the one who should be thanking you, Keiko-chan. Thanks for inviting me.

Shizuru: Come on, we are drinking today!

[Meanwhile, on the streets…]

Yusuke: Ah ... Damnnnn!!! That old hag...

Yusuke: She can't just kick me out and say, "Get out, we're having a girls' only party". Good grief, that annoying arsehole.

Yusuke: …Are you gonna talk about unpleasant things? Jeez…

*BUMP*

Yusuke: Ah, my bad.

Delinquent: Hey, you! Where the hell are you looking while walking!?

Delinquent: Hey … You! That's Urameshi!

Yusuke: Ah? Who the hell are you…?

Delinquent: Don't tell me you forgot! Take this!

*The delinquent tries to hit Yusuke*

Yusuke: Wait … I'm asking who you are!

Yusuke: Shit! Oh well, I can't help it!

[After a fight…]

Yusuke: Phew, that guy was such a pain.

Yusuke: I'm pretty sure I walloped this guy long time ago ... But, I don't even remember his name.

Yusuke: Damn, I've been having a bad day! I should go to the arcade to relax…

Kuwabara: Hey, Urameshiiii! What the hell are you doing here!

Yusuke: Oh, it's you. I'm in a bad mood right now.

Kuwabara: What is it, are you mad for being kicked out of your house?

Yusuke: Idiot, what the hell are you talking about!? Or perhaps, you knew the gals were gathering?

Kuwabara: In the morning, my sister was making a fuss over the girls' night out.

Kuwabara: I wonder what the heck they're talking about.

Yusuke: Dunno.

Kuwabara: Hey, Urameshi, where are you going?

Yusuke: The arcade! Today, I'm going all out and blow off some steam.

Kuwabara: That's great! Alright, I'm also comi…

Delinquent: Hey, you did really well earlier.

Yusuke: Ah?

*people gathering*

Kuwabara: What!? That's a lot of people…

Yusuke: Is it you again? What a persistent dude.

Yusuke: Even if you bring your buddies along, it's useless.

Delinquent: I ain't letting you through here, until you beat me!

Kuwabara: Urameshi, this is getting interesting!

Yusuke: Yeah, it's been a while since I've gone on a rampage!

[Meanwhile, at the girls' gathering...]

Shizuru: This is delicious. Did Botan-chan buy them?

Botan: Yes! I thought this would be awesome with sake!

Keiko: Shizuru-san, that squid ... Didn't you have some at the hotel?

Shizuru: Ahh! At the time of the Dark Tournament! Keiko-chan, you have a good memory.

T/N: They are talking about the Hotel Kubikukuri, the luxurious hotel at the Hanging Neck Island where the Dark Tournament was held.

Botan: *Sighs* ... Come to think of it, the Dark Tournament has ended…

T/N: After Sakyo exploded the stadium, there were no more editions of the Dark Tournament.

Atsuko: Hey, what is that Dark Tournament? What was it like?

T/N: Atsuko attends the Tournament in the manga, but not in the anime.

Botan:

Oh, yeah! Hot battles were unfolding!

*Flashback of the Dark Tournament*

Botan: Hiei's Black Dragon Wave was absolutely amazing. It was a crushing victory, a crushing victory!

Shizuru: And yet, Kazu lost from the very beginning … Damn! If you're a man, you should have won all the fights!

Botan: Shizuru-san said to him, "If you lose next time, I'll lynch you!"!

*End of Flashback*

Atsuko: Heh, looks like it was very exciting.

Botan: Well, Yusuke was really cool too. He played a big, big, big part!

Botan: Right, Keiko-chan?

Keiko: Um, yeah...

Atsuko: Reaaaally? What was so cool about him?

Atsuko: If it's true, I wish I could've seen how cool he looked.

Keiko: .......

Shizuru: ...Keiko-chan?

Botan: Oh? What's the matter? You've suddenly got a sad look on your face.

Atsuko: No way, Keiko-chan. Could it be, that our idiot was really so much uncool?

Botan: No, no, that can't be true! Oh, but maybe that's how it looked like to Keiko-chan...

Keiko: No, it's not! … That's not it.

Shizuru: Keiko-chan, is there anything bothering you? You can talk to us if you like.

Atsuko: That's right! It's a girls-only gathering!

Keiko: ...Really?

Keiko: Well then, let me try to explain you a little bit about it…

[Back to Yusuke and Kuwabara]

*THUMP*

Yusuke: That's all of 'em?

Kuwabara: What a bunch of hot-blooded bastards. Good grief, go home and take a nap at once.

Kuwabara/Yusuke: Ah-choo!

T/N: Onomatopoeia sound of sneezing.

Kuwabara: Ugh, my nose itches … We got a cold or something?

Yusuke: I don't remember catching anything.

Kuwabara: Me too, and the sneeze came all of a sudden. Don't tell me someone's been gossiping about us!

Kuwabara: Well, it was one sneeze, so maybe they're saying bad things…

T/N: The Japanese believe that sneezing once means someone is gossiping something nice about you. Twice means something not as nice. Kuwabara got it all wrong lol. But, the girls are really gossiping about them!

Yusuke: Gossip? There's no one who would gossip about me like that.

Kuwabara: There's a lot who would! Not to mention you've already died once.

Kuwabara: There're lots of folks out there who will gossip about you, y'know. Even more if it's a bad gossip!

Yusuke: Really!? Kuwabara, you're bullshitting me, right!?

Kuwabara: I'm not! You Foolsuke!

T/N: Kuwabara calls Yusuke as "Takosuke". Tako means octopus, but in slang is an insult, similar to dumb, stupid, fool, idiot etc.

*TUG*

Yusuke: What?

Kuwabara: Ack!

Delinquent: I WON'T FORGIVE YOU...

Yusuke: You again! Gimme a break!

Yusuke/Kuwabara: !!

Kuwabara: Yo, youkai...!

Yusuke: Son of a bitch, you're so insistent!

Yusuke: Come on, I'm gonna send you flying!

[After fighting...]

Yusuke: *Puff, puff* … It took a little while.

Kuwabara: *Puff* … I guess we've already beaten the whole gang…

Kuwabara: Aw, my clothes are torn.

Yusuke: Mine too...

Yusuke: But, I can't believe they pop up in town like this. What a bunch of brash assholes.

Kuwabara: Hey, you sure this is all of 'em?

Yusuke: Well, I really don't think I failed to finish 'em off, but…

Yusuke: I'm worried if there's any other damage. Hey, I'm also checking my place.

Yusuke: If they went over there, it'd be an uproar.

Kuwabara: Oh, I'm coming too! Oh, hey!

Kuwabara: Don't leave me behind, Urameshiii!

[At the Urameshi's Residence, Keiko talks about her worries...]

Keiko: Really, the Yusuke at the Dark Tournament looked so radiant.

Keiko: A while ago, I would have never imagined he could look so good…

Keiko: But when I see Yusuke like that, somewhere in my heart, I feel uneasy.

Keiko: When I remembered Yusuke fighting, I ended up getting so worried that I was about to say, "STOP", and interrupt our conversation.

Keiko: I hate myself, I'm sorry to remember about it while we were talking.

Keiko: Oh my, how useless I am.

Botan: You're not useless! What are you talking about!

Botan: Didn't you say at the hotel that you would watch over Yusuke? Isn't it admirable just to be able to make that decision?

Shizuru: Keiko-chan is really brave. But, I think you don't have to think about it too much.

Shizuru: You are worried, we're all the same.

Botan: Uh-huh.

Atsuko: Keiko-chan thinks of him like this. He's a lucky guy!

Atsuko: Good grief, I wonder if he knows that!

Atsuko: *Gasp*, it's alright, Keiko-chan! Don't worry about that guy!

Shizuru: Hehe, they're tough guys. Kazu too, even if I worry about him, he's off somewhere in a minute.

Keiko: Shizuru-san…

Botan: Oh dear, it's the springtime of life ... Just listening to it, makes my heart beat faster.

Atsuko: Cheers to the brave Keiko-chan!

Botan: CHEERS! Kyahahaha!

Shizuru: Aah, you both (Atsuko and Botan) are really becoming joyful ... I am sorry, we're in the middle of a serious talk, and yet…

Keiko: Um, I'm fine. Somehow, I feel a little better.

Shizuru: Really? Then let's enjoy today to the fullest.

Keiko: Yeah!

[Yusuke and Kuwabara arrive at Yusuke's place]

Yusuke: *Puff puff*, we've arrived ... Is everyone okay?

Botan: Yuu, Yusuke!?

Keiko: You two, your clothes are tattered! What happened?

Yusuke: I mean ... youkai popped up on our way. We ended up struggling a bit.

Kuwabara: We took 'em all down, but we thought of coming down here to check on you just in case.

Atsuko: Oh, I thought you were getting into a fight with someone again.

Yusuke: Well, that too, but...

Botan: You were!?

Keiko: ...Don't fight, Yusuke!

Yusuke: But ... it was the youkai who picked up a fight all of sudden.

Keiko: Who wouldn't be worried if you suddenly came back home dressed like that…!

Yusuke: ......

Shizuru: Keiko-chan...

Yusuke: Sorry, Keiko.

Yusuke: ... I'm sorry. I promise you I will not worry you anymore.

Yusuke: But this time, seriously, I wasn't picking a fight. I just want you to know that.

Keiko: Yusuke...

Atsuko: Oh! You two are passionately in love!

Botan: You're a handsome man! Kyaaaaaa!

T/N: (lol) is Botan drunk already?

Kuwabara: I, I'm getting embarrassed to be next to you listening to this … What the heck was that "I promise you"?

Kuwabara: Don't say things like in dorama!

T/N: Japanese dramas (dorama) are characterized by melodramatic characters and plots.

Yusuke: You, you bastards!! That's enough!

Botan: We were just kidding~

Kuwabara: Ouch! You don't have to hit me!

Atsuko: Hey, that's how you treat your mother?

Shizuru: Yusuke-kun, you're strong. Isn't Keiko-chan a little relieved too?

Keiko: Jeez … I wonder if it's true what he said?

Keiko: Haha, Yusuke is always like that…

-The End-

The girls remembered about Hiei, Yusuke and Kuwabara at the Dark Tournament, but no one mentioned Kurama T_T. He was really cool too. Botan even praised Hiei. If you take a closer look at the beverage cans, Keiko is the only one who is not drinking alcohol. I wonder how old Botan is?

Why is there so much harem anime and Manga, and it hasn't leeched into comics? Like I'm glad, but with the amount of trying to making Japanese like comics (think dc ame-comi girls or marvel mangaverse), how has that not leeched in? (Ps, I sent this to aliteralchicken as an ask as well)

I’m assuming it’s due to the difference of cultures perhaps? At least as far as I’m aware, harems are frowned upon in the western world.

Also, it doesn’t suit the writing style. Western comics are usually by a company producing multiple stories in the same universe. Harems and consistent romances are hard to maintain in that environment.

I was just witness to a bunch of people complaining about 'straight girls fetishising gay men' and, uh, 'yaoi hands' on the internet. I am so tempted to write a long piece about the history of the shoujo genre and how it has always had a queer subculture to it (not just gay but also lesbian stories and stories of gender identity playing a part; see authors like Yoshiya Nobuko and mangaka like Ikeda Riyoko and their works, for example) and how that has led to the BL genre having shoujo influence due to its origins, and how that influence has continued as BL has spread across East Asia...

But I do not have the energy for that, and quite frankly I doubt many people would read it. You know what I will share instead? Some extremely heterosexual yaoi hands.

(Shinjou Mayu is a long-time mangaka whose works have featured in Sho Comi; she specialises in smutty het manga for teenage girls which are well-drawn and sexy but not necessarily very well-written. 'Yaoi' hands feature very prominently in her work because...that was just a feature of shoujo manga for older teens at the time! When I was first told by a friend what 'yaoi hands' means, I started laughing my head off. Tell me you don't read shoujo manga without saying it, huh?)

Trash talk

The disinterest in female anatomy that flies in some ame-comi will never ceases to be hilarious for me. It's not even bad. just you can tell they really really aren't in to tits and stomachs, being not muscle and arms with so much, well more muscle. Anime saturated brain of mine has trouble processing the big title artists still didn't really get the mood going in that direction. Maybe it's how pin-up girls pose that I'm not prevy to? Could be!

Welcome to our May Newsletter!

Congratulations to the winner this month!

Carl H.

You are the winner of the April newsletter.

You submitted the correct answer – Bear Lake Highlands was the previous name of Wolf River Golf Park.

Your Golf Up North Schwag is on the way!

If you would like a chance to win some Golf Up North schwag, you have to subscribe to the newsletter. Subscribe at Golf Up North Newsletter and be on the mailing list for the June 1, 2023 edition.

IT IS SNOWING IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN!

It is May 1st, I was shocked to see snowflakes hitting my deck and sticking! In the first few years of living Up North we did get snow on Mother’s Day a few times, so I guess I should not be complaining too much… yet.

With the crazy weather we have been having, we highly recommend verifying that a course is open before heading out.

Honesty is the best policy

Going to be honest with you all, I forgot I had a newsletter to send out today until yesterday at 4pm. I apologize if it is lacking.

We have been getting some feedback on our newsletters and golf in general. A few folks have asked who I am. In past issues I have mentioned a husband, kids, and grandkids and that I started golfing later in life, but other than that I had not shared much. This newsletter will rectify that.

I also received an email from Diana that asked about woman friendly courses and if I could talk about those courses. We will do that in this issue as well.

Who am I?

I have a short bio that I use in many of my blog posts that pretty well sums up who I am. Today you get the long version. 😊

My name is Marisa (you all probably figured that out from my email LOL), and I moved to Northern Michigan in 1995 from SE Michigan with my husband Steve and our 4 children. Prior to moving north, we vacationed here a lot and always dreamed of moving “Up North.” After moving north, we still vacationed up here taking the kids on mini and long adventures.

I really came to appreciate Northern Michigan and the beauty of what the area had to offer after Steve died. I discovered many amazing trail networks that I could walk for miles screaming and crying while I looked for ways to cope with my loss.

A few years later I met Guy who would eventually become my second husband. We actually got married on the golf course after we hosted a 9 hole scramble with friends and family.

Guy convinced me to give just 9 holes a try and I was hooked. He has golfed for 40+ years and is the contributor for the guy golf trips I talk about.

I know I have mentioned Mother’s Day at the driving range with Steve and the kids, which was true, I just never wanted to try golf back then. Something clicked in my 50’s and I tried it and LOVED it! Discovering golf provided me another place outdoors to spend time. I enjoy all sports and spent years watching various sports on television with the kids.

My Family

At this point we have my 4 kids (1 girl, 3 boys), Guy’s son and 8 grandchildren that make up our family. My 3 boys golf as does 2 daughter-in-laws and one granddaughter and one grandson. Having a lot fun golfing with my kids and their kids and introducing the younger ones to the game.

For as long as I can remember I have been the family writer and poet. Creating the Golf Up North website with the purpose of my easily finding courses to golf at has led to several other websites providing entertainment or information and giving me a creative outlet for my writing.

If you would like to read some of my stories not about golf you can visit Adventures in Northern Michigan and Northern Michigan History.

In future issues we will introduce the other 2 key members of the Golf Up North Team, Josh and Arianna.

Women in Golf

Last week on Facebook I shared an article (you have to sign up for a free trial to read the entire article) about Nancy Henderson’s work to increase female golf participation.

It reminded me of my first-year golfing. I have talked about Guy stressing etiquette and pace of play to me a lot. If I saw someone coming up behind us I would worry that they would see me drive only 100 yards. Would they make an assumption and make a snarky remark? I was concerned not only about holding folks up, but nasty attitudes as well. Early in my golfing career I was lucky to not have experienced that. I did however experience it later.

I have always played rounds fast and do not do practice swings. Figuring out which way the wind is blowing or looking for my ball for more than about 60 seconds is not something I have patience for. If I am not being held up, I can golf 18 holes in about 3 ½ hours or less.

My first year golfing a couple came up behind us and we apologized and asked if they wanted to play through, that I was still new to the game. Both of them stressed that it was okay, and they loved seeing other women on the course. They came by to encourage me, not to complain.

Since that first year I had not had anyone be rude to my face on a course. I have always felt welcomed and encouraged for the most part until last summer.

There can be jerks anywhere, even the golf course

I mentioned this incident in my newsletter about Northport Creek Golf Course. We asked 3 guys if we could go ahead and tee off since they were waiting for their fourth (their tee time was in 5 minutes we were after them).Their knee jerk reaction was to look at me and ask with a just horrible tone and facial expression if I would be playing slow. My knee jerk reaction was forget it, we would wait. As it turned out their foursome were holding up our twosome and never would let us play through. Was it an A-hole move on their part? I thought so.

Of course, whether you are a man or woman I am sure at one time or another you have had the evil eye sent your way, heard the grumbling behind you or have been hit up on. Folks make judgements based on age (young and old), gender and even the quality of the clubs they see on the cart. One of the best golfers I have ever met was 80+ years old, recently recovered from back surgery and was crushing them from the black tees. Looks can be deceiving.

Ignore the Haters

Diana, I believe all courses are women friendly, even the high-level ones and you should golf where you want and have fun. You have just as much right to golf there as they do. I would recommend that you keep practice swings to a minimum, don’t try to find a truly lost ball, and play ready golf. If you do those things the folks behind you have no reason to complain. Plus, you can always let them play through if they are riding up on you or you are slowing them down.

There will always be jerks no matter where you golf, just depends on whether they are there the day you are.

My recommendation to all is to not make assumptions about how things are going to go based on preconceived ideas. Remember what they say about assuming. I have to admit though I thoroughly enjoyed them seeing that I was very capable of maintaining pace of play and if we had gone head-to-head, I may have even beaten a few. 😊

Virginia Golf

I mentioned in our last issue my plans to head to Virginia to get some golf in and try out my new 9 wood. Well, we did exactly that over Easter and of course that was the week it was in the 80’s in Northern Michigan. It was in the 60’s in Virginia Beach.

Regardless of the temperature we were able to get 2 rounds in with one of my boys and I put the 9 wood to the test. Slow start with the 9, but it started coming through for me and I am excited about golfing this season!

Pictured above is Virginia Beach National Golf Course

Northern Michigan Courses are Opening.

Many courses are open, and more are announcing their opening daily. We are keeping our website updated with the latest information.

Visit Golf Up North and scroll down the home page and you will see where you can choose a region and it will take you to a page that lists courses open and courses opening soon with anticipated open dates for that area.

Remember this is Northern Michigan and the weather can and does change frequently (snowing May 1st!). Verify with the course that they are open and offering the services you are interested in before heading out.

Things have changed in the 50+ years Since Sir Pelham Grenville Wodehouse lived. Seeing as we were talking about women and golf I thought I would share this quote. 🙂

Disclosure: We never tell a course who we are when we book and play a course. We do not ask nor will we accept free rounds to write about a course. We pay full price for our rounds for everyone in our group.
