📚𝙲𝚕𝚊𝚜𝚜𝚛𝚘𝚘𝚖 𝙲𝚑𝚊𝚘𝚜✏️

(ᴀ sʙɪ+ᴛᴏᴍᴍʏ & ᴄᴏ ʜɪɢʜsᴄʜᴏᴏʟ ᴀᴜ) ☟︎︎︎ ʟᴏɴɢ ᴛᴇxᴛ ʙᴇʟᴏᴡ ☟︎︎︎

ʷᵉ ᵈⁱᵈⁿ'ᵗ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ʷᵉ ʷᵉʳᵉ ᵐᵃᵏⁱⁿᵍ ᵐᵉᵐᵒʳⁱᵉˢ ᵃˡᵒⁿᵍ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵃʸ ʷᵉ ʷᵉʳᵉ ʲᵘˢᵗ ᵃ ᵇᵘⁿᶜʰ ᵒᶠ ᵏⁱᵈˢ ʰᵃᵛⁱⁿᵍ ᶠᵘⁿ ᵗᵒᵍᵉᵗʰᵉʳ

❣︎ ᴛᴇᴄʜɴᴏ ɴ. ʙʟᴀᴅᴇ (Second year):

-The fucking brain of the whole school.Gets all the top grades and is every teacher's favorite.

-English is his main thing,he knows so many complex words and phrases that he uses to sound smarter and confuse other poeple.

-Spends most of his free time and breaks in the library reading a book or studying.

-Doesn't like getting involved in conflicts or fights but he will step in and tell them back off if they are making fun of someone or bullying them :(

-His sleeping schedule is messed up.So after staying up all night playing videogames he buys atleast seven cups of coffee in the cafeteria to keep him awake.

-Finds sticky notes his three best friends left behind on his locker.It's either daily reminders or just some dumb shit like an insult or a crappy drawing.He pretends to throw them away but he secretly keeps them all in his room :)

-Gives his friends after school lessons and guides if they are stuck on homework or have a big exam coming up so they don't fail and get a good mark :D

-Doesn't like going to football games or any school games at all,but he will go when it's one of Tommy's basketball games (He even went with him to his tryouts for moral support-)

-Will give both Tommy and Wilbur cheet sheets and answers for bigger and more harder exams or tests :P (But they have to pay him lmfaooo-)

-Agrees to do risky (but fun-) shit with Tommy and Wilbur (They have broken into the school multiple times at night-)

-Sometimes Techno gets these horrible head aches so Phil,Wilbur and Tommy created a little sleeping spot on an old couch in the library where they can all lay down and relax together :D (This shit is so wholesome)

-Drags his friends and talks so much shit about them but in reality he cares for them.He will call them names like loser or idiot but he never truly means it :) (He loves them but he would never admit it out loud- cringee)

-Is in two clubs.He plays the violin in the school band and performs in the theater. (He played a king once and till this day it's by far his favorite performance) :D

-Completely oblivious to the fact that these random two dudes (Squid and Dream) are competing against him for the reputation of the smartest student.

❣︎ ᴘʜɪʟ ᴡᴀᴛsᴏɴ(Third year):

-The parent of the school.He helps out wherever he can so his hands are always full and occupied.It gets hard to catch him sometimes since he's always running around.

-The teachers love him.He will help them with papers and he also volunteers to stay longer and clean up the classroom after everyone leaves.

-Keeps the chaos trio out of trouble and makes sure they don't end up in detention,though he doubts Techno ever will.He can't say the same for the other two though :)

-Helps out the nurses and lunch ladies if they have too much work- (He gets free chocolate milk in the cafeteria as a little thank you :D)

-He basically steals the teachers work.They don't get any more complaints from the students or any type of fight they need to solve since Phil's got it all under control.

-He stops by the bakery and brings breakfast for Tommy and Wilbur,and a coffee for Techno with him.Techno said he doesn't like to eat early so Phil kept that in mind :)

-They think he doesn't know but Phil indeed does recall all the shenanigans the three of his best friends have done. (Yes even the school break ins-)

-Attends ALL of Techno's and Wilbur's shows and performances.And he doesn't forget about Tommy's basketball games :3 (He's probably the loudest in the crowd and hypes them up like a proud father-)

-Gets way too worried over his friends.One time Tommy twisted his ankle during a game and Phil freaked out. Tommy reassured him that it's just a bruise but turns out he broke his ankle so- Yeah trust Phil and get it checked if he says to get it checked :)

-Student council president?- That's Phil for you.

-The students (and teachers) were both very happy that Phil got to be council president since he has proven himself worthy of that title.

-Constantly has to apologize for Tommy's and Wilbur's antics.He can't argue against Techno but these two brainless children get into way too much trouble :(

-Phil keeps the school under control- At first the teacher's were kinda pissed off but now they get to spend more free time and still get payed for doing less work.They always make sure to thank Phil though don't worry :)

-There have been way less fights and stressful situations in school since Phil takes care of them and makes sure everything runs smoothly,the way it's supposed to :D

❣︎ ᴡɪʟʙᴜʀ sᴏᴏᴛ(First year):

-The heartthrob of the school.Cliche definition of Mr.popular.The whole school is either in love with him, jealous of him or they admire him.

-Has the most sick parties over the year.Halloween?Birthdays?Home alone parties? With Wilbur it's like prom every month :D

-Flirts with all the girls,he's never been in a relationship before but he can't help the fact that he's handsome :) He's a huge ass romantic.The reason behind that may be the fact that his favorite movie genre is romance lmao-

-Is in the school band and theater club with Techno.He plays the guitar and sings(Bonus points for the girls) His favorite type of performances have to be musicals :D (Hamilton reference let's go-)

-Fights with Tommy all the time.You could catch the two of them throwing insults at eachother and from time to time even a middle finger (or in Tommy's case both)

-People continously ask him if he's dating Niki but they are just good friends who bond over music :( He would sing and play guitar for her,Niki has so many polaroids of their cute moments together in her room- (Wilbur may or may not have stolen one while he was hanging out with her-)

-Knows everyones dirty secrets and will blackmail others if they fuck with him or his friends.

-Also hates Dream,doesn't know if it's becouse he competes with Techno all the time or that he's a huge wheezing jerk >:(

-He loves sitting next to Techno in the library while he comes up with new song ideas.He would ask Techno for his opinion to <3

-The whole school is behind his back.You start shit with Wilbur and not only are his friends there to back him but every student (Even the janitor lmao)

❣︎ ᴛᴏᴍᴍʏ sɪᴍᴏɴs(First year):

-Seen as a heathen by the whole school.Got himself the nickname troublemaker from pretty much everyone.

-Shit you not he goes around the school and starts fights with people who are way stronger than him but still manages to beat them up like?

-Road his skateboard through the school hallways once and made Tubbo record it while he pulled off some stupid stunt down the stairs- He ended up breaking his leg lmao.

-Legit always goes after the popular kids-(That's how he met Phil,Wilbur and Techno)now he has people who can beat ass with him (except for Phil)

-Calls teachers out on their bullshit.He will literally say they are wrong and what they're saying his complete bullshit

-May or may not have got suspended a few times

-Gets into so many detentions.The teachers are pretty much used to him coming and even have a special seat reserved for him in the back.

-Plays basketball and gets super excited when the Blade comes and picks him up from practice.Feels extremely cool that he's walking away with him while his teammates stare in shock.

-Once spread a rumor about Wilbur to pay him back for pranking him and let's just say Tommy and he had a pretty deep conversation lmao-

-That kid who always couldn't contain his luaghter in class and threw paper balls across the room.Yeah that's Tommy

-Has a gang he hangs out with (Tubbo is his favorite but he loves to annoy Deo lmao)They also have a groupchat,tbh it's mostly just Tommy asking if he can copy homework from one of them

-Tried to hack into the school system with Techno's help atleast five times but after Phil cought them the two of them stopped

-Brings nerf guns into school and jumpscares people with them.He shot the principal once and that was the most terrifying moment of his life (Apart that conversation with Wilbur lmaoooo)

-Loves breaking rules with Wilbur and Techno lol.It was his idea to break into the school the first time so they kinda stuck to doing that (especially during summer break)

AHHHHH- It's finished! This time I tried something different and made it a bunch of short headcanons!This is probably my favorite type of au so I'm really happy with how it turned out! Love y'all <3

Oops I’m Sorry - Zuko x Reader

Warnings: none

one shot

The sky mimics my mood, the tears that stream down my face blending together with the rain, thunder and lighting shake the grounds.

It had all happen so fast, Zuko had asked me to go with him as he takes on Azula once in for all. It was clear that Azula was losing, Zuko had bested her, a crackle of blue and white flashes, a smirk played on her lips letting out a deranged laugh before redirecting the lightning in my direction. It had taken me aback, I was not able to move in time, a blur of red, brown and black covers my vision. Zuko had taken the hit for me, his body crashes to the ground and I quickly roll him over to his back assessing the damage. He had a big purple and red mark on his cheet area dangerously close to his heart, he was unconscious and barely breathing.

“Zuko, I need you to wake up!”,I gently shook his shoulders, he didn’t respond. “Zuko, please!”,I continued trying to remove his shirt so I could heal him, it had started raining, Azula’s laugh takes my attention.

“Aww poor Zuzu, he will never win an Agni Kai”

Something snapped in me, I wiped my tears. I check on Zuko one last time, I stood up and faced Azula,”you’re a scum, you just couldn’t accept your defeat”,I suspend the droplets of rain around us,”you’re a disgrace Azula, can’t even follow through with your challenge”. I clench my fist turning all the rain droplets into icicles and launching them to Azula, she moved to dodge but it was almost impossible, I managed to cut her. “Aww how cute, fighting for my pathetic brother”,cheeks bleeding from the icicles, she threw a blue flame at me but I extinguished it easily. Her movement becomes reckless so I took the opportunity and tried to get her to back up by the sewer grates.

Azula jumps into the air aiming her flame engulfed foot at me but I quickly slid over to where I want to corner her. At this point she was throwing flames around, I have finally backed her up at the sewer grates and I slammed my hands on the ground freezing the surface which leaves her stuck. Before she can melt herself free I bend the water from the

grate caging her in place, locking her arms to prevent her from bending anymore. “You can’t defeat me, I’m going to be Firelord”,Azula yells blue flames coming out of her mouth.

”But we did and that is what it feels like”

I rush over to Zuko,”Please be alright, you’re gonna be the next Firelord”, he’s still breathing but still not consious I bend the water to my hands and place them on top of the red and purple wound, my hands start to glow blue, healing him. The size of the mark gets smaller but it doesn’t completely go away, a warm hand grabs mine and I look up. I’m met with warm ember eyes, tear stream down my cheeks again,”I’m so glad you’re alive”,I cry to him, he lets out a pained chuckle, he moves to grab my other hand but I shake my head. “You’re not all healed yet”,I laugh at him, all of a sudden he shoots from his laying position,”Where’s Azula?”,he groans out.

“Don’t worry about her, I’ve taken care of it”,I urge him to lay back down,”huh guess I still couldn’t beat Azula”,he sighs. “That’s not true, you’ve technically beaten her. She just couldn’t accept it and cheated”,I huff annoyed.

“Also thank you for saving my life, you didn’t have to”

“Don’t say that, I would do it all over again for you”,he says quietly. Even with the cold rain pouring down I feel my cheeks flush,”(your name), thank you for healing me, thank you for always patching me back up. I-I was so scared that I wouldn’t be able to you”,he trails off. He removes my hand for his chest, slightly sitting up and takes my hands in his. “Tell me what Zuko?”,I asked the black haired male,”I planned to tell you after all this has passed but as I was struck with lightning, I began to regret”,he pauses. “(your name), I have never met a girl like you, not that I have much experience but your kind eyes, your selflessness and your wild personality drew me in.”,his eyes meet mine.

“(your name), I like you”

Zuko’s face is all flushed, I process his words. He awkwardly moves to rub the back of his neck but he cringes from the pain of the wound,”Zuko, I-I”,I was flustered, I couldn’t form the words I wanted to say. “It’s okay, (your name) I’m just glad I was able to get that off my chest”,he looks away from me, embarrassed from his sudden confession.

“Zuko, I like you too. The changed person that you have become now, the fact that you try to make things right made me fall for you.”,I move to sir closer to him,”I was shy to say, plus you just joined the group so I thought it’d be awkward”,I say honestly. I lean my head so our noses brush, I bravely connect our lips together. The feeling was amazing, I wanted more he moves to deepen the kiss and I place my hands on his shoulders. We break away from the kiss, a beautiful smile sits on his lips and I can’t help but blush, I move my arms to encircle him in a hug.

“Unh (your name) my chest”,he chuckles, I gasp and quickly let go, cheeks heating up even more before awkwardly laughing with him.

“Oops I’m sorry”

m a s t e r l i s t

hey! another Zuko x Reader up, i’m hoping yah guys are enjoying it. please leave a like if you enjoyed it and send me a dm if yah have any request or suggestions. check out my blog for others, have a great day!

💄RUDOLF’S DRAG RACE AU 🏁

ALRIGHT SO this AU originally started in our Yeah We Outlasting discord server, artists started drawing the characters in drag and I WOKE HMSHD real shit man. So I'm making a masterpost for drag au on behalf of the server✊✊

Outlast 1 = Season 1

Outlast 2 = Season 2

Whistleblower DLC = All Stars

All of the characters and ideas for the characters were written in collab with @gothivican, @panopt1c0n, @grahaam and the rest of the lads in the server, y’all have such beautiful brains. So anyways.

Here are the judges:

Rudolf Wernicke. Lowkey bias, literally goes to the backstage and tells Miles to beat Billy Hope in a lipsync because Billy can't continue on the show for some reason. Has favoritism towards Blaire, but was forced to sashay him away by the other two judges. Also this bitch is dying, literally has a breathing tank support behind his chair.

Pauline Glick. A very sharp critic. Wore the same shoes? Call out. Oh that's your signature makeup? UGLY tone it down. Sorry, the colors don't match, you'll be in the bottom two for that.

Paul Marion. The kindest judge. He will give constructive criticism in the nicest non-offensive way possible and compliment them after (because he would feel guilty about it).

Alice as guest star. Supportive as f u c k, huge fan, she cries when meeting the queens in Untucked. She can't help complimenting the queens every 10 seconds, she gives off the Leslie Jones’ enthusiasm.

Lisa Park as guest star. Like Alice, very supportive. She’s an artist, and will break down all the reasons why they are so good from an artist’s perspective. Crushes HARD on Wyssle Blower, she might’ve given her number after the show.

Lynn Langermann as guest star. She’s a judge, and she will judge. Gives out well constructed criticisms to all queens fair and square until she saw Angel Fromm (Blake) and just says “Wow what’s there to criticize?” Sallyzekiel hates her, Valentina and Angel on the other hand loves her very much.

Here are the queens:

Miles Upshur as Kill-O-Meter. Primarily an insult comedy and rocker queen, and specializes in dancing. She tends to be criticized for a lack of glamour on some of her main stage looks, and is one of the most dramatic, sarcastic and shady queens of the bunch. Can and will stomp on you in latex boots for money. Besties with Wyssle and Chrisel, gets into a little heated talks with (occasionally) Peacock, (frequently) Ricky and Remy. She adores Cheets’ (Pyro) makeup skills. Winner of season 1 babey!!

Chris Walker as Piggy Chrisel. A punk/grunge queen who seems to specialize moreso in dancing and lip syncing. She's a shy, gentle giant, has a little trouble speaking coherently and it affects her in the acting/impromptu comedy challenges. She will call out whores though, she will kick ass when the situation calls for it. Really good at makeup, makeup girl-friends with Cheeto and besties with Kill O Meter (Latrila vibes). Also a perfectionist and hates mess on her work table.

Rick Trager as Ricky Trix. Whore, that's all. This bitch OBNOXIOUS and shady but she's both a glamour AND comedy queen, the other queens are watching out for her since day one. Horror and '80s inspired queen, extremely good at comedy and acting and will literally stomp the competition with nearly perfect impressions and extremely expressive acting. The downfall for her seems to be glam on the occasion and singing. Rivals with Kill O Meter and Miss Tini, kikis with Remy (they throw shade to other queens the moment they get em)

Father Martin as Miss Tini. The oldest queen but she can still serve the cakes. Generally a kind person, coming from a religious background. She’s takes the drag culture religiously. She gets along with The Twinks.

The Twins as The Twinks. Was recruited as two totally separate queens, but both quit on the first episode when one of the twins were to be eliminated. The queens tell the Twinks apart by who’s bald and who’s not. They don’t vibe with other queens except Miss Tini.

Pyromaniac as Cheeto de LaFlammeo. Queen of Makeup, she has some serious skill range on it. Good in the acting department, always plays as the tragic character. Was rivals with Kill-O Meter before, but one time when she had a breakdown, Kill-O Meter was by her side when no one was. After that, they respected each other.

Billy Hope as Billy Willy. CLOWN QUEEN, huge Crystal Methyd vibes. She’s the youngest queen, very energetic, a ball of SUNSHINE but Wernicke was a bias bitch and sent her home immediately the moment she was in the bottom. She was basically Kill-O Meter and Wyssle Blower's drag child. Hailed as Miss Congeniality, is voted by majority to return for a season 2 for going home a little too early than people feel was deserved. Best at makeup and outfits, her mom Tiffany taught her to sew and make dresses out of rags and other unconventional materials and the skill proved to be helpful. Also she likes puns and everyone likes playing with her name like: Silly Billy Willy, Witty Billy Willy, etc.

....

Waylon Park as Wyssle Blower. The Mom of the queens, the most well rounded queen, and the most 'fishy' one. Probably the smartest and most humble one out of everyone, she can read through people’s bullshit well. Genuinely looks like a girl in full drag, but always does her best on acting. She's serving you a cute, nerdy and quirky style, but can serve horror when need be. Always wins the mini challenges, she's not as loud as the other girls but she does beat Blaire in a lip sync (lowkey badass lipsyncer). Winner of All Stars babey

Jeremy Blaire as Remy Coco Ainée. Pretentious fake ass queen, even her drag name is just Cocaine in fake French. A pure fashion glamour queen, she serves it at almost all the fashion challenges but there's no more personality out of her other than that and her shady attitude (she will not hold back on the shade). Is extremely horrible at singing (her voice cracks) and acting, goes home against a lip sync with Wyssle. This bitch will FLEX her wins. Kikis with Ricky, mainly rivals with Kill O Meter, Wyssle and Peacock but she made everyone her rivals bc of her bitchass attitude.

Eddie Gluskin as Edna Taylor. Fashion queen, specializes in sewing, acting and singing, but is extremely lacking in the dancing department. Has a one-sided endearment for Waylon, and consistently tries to have her attention. Is extremely manipulative too, trying to consistently trip the other queens up. Also everybody hates her mohawk signature wig but nobody says anything about it because they don’t want to be victim to Edna’s mind games.

Frank Manera as Hanni Canni Bahl. Horror queen, best at comedy and dancing. Though it is prohibited, she’s able to sneak in weed, coke (for Ricky) and snacks in the werk room. Very messy when working, her discarded fabrics are EVERYWHERE and Chrisel is fighting the urge to clean it up. She eats while working when the camera’s off, and it stains the dress she’s working on (Pauline notices it).

Dennis as Denise. Mocked as “Edna’s little helper” as she always helps with her dresses. She’s trying too hard to impress Edna, and helps her get Wyssle’s attention. Very talented in acting and sewing, but bland in fashion, lacking in concept. Her inner conflict is what got her eliminated.

Simon Peacock as Julie Peacock. Rebellious, mischievous, and an ex-glam queen gone horror and campy instead. After being insulted much by glam queens (ahemRemyahem), she just embraced it and became a horror queen, serving the judges her horror aesthetic. Best at comedy, lacks extremely on acting and dancing though. No one is safe from her constructive criticism, and she will never stop ranting to Kill O Meter and Wyssle about Remy and Ricky being bad bitches and favored by Wernicke, she thinks it's unfair.

....

Blake Langermann as Angel Fromm. Singing queen!! Good at singing, but otherwise is moreso well-rounded, she might've been eliminated earlier, hadn't it been for her also low-key successful and iconic lip syncs. But the lucky winning streak didn't last forever, she goes home later in the season because she's slowly falling behind the other queens and can't keep up anymore. Has Rococo aesthetic, unfortunately the outfits can't make up for the lack of character as a queen. Though she needs a lot of improvement, the guest star Lynn adores her very much.

Val as Valentina. Queen of SEX or moreso impersonations and comedy. She’s a terrible tailor, but likes unconventional and simple fashion designs. She’s trans and lowkey Pauline has a crush on her the moment she walked on that stage. Pure rivals with Sallyzekiel, you know that iconic Aja vs. Valentina in Untucked? They had that moment. Probably goes home earlier, not entirely prepared, but still was a season icon. Definitely dropped it low about 10 times on her lip sync.

Marta as ImMartal. GOTH QUEEN, survived about early mid season. Best at her makeup and looks, glam queen, but the judges criticize her for wearing the same wigs/having the same hairstyle for almost every looks.

Nick Tremblay as Nicky Lanterns. Another gentle giant. Very introverted, she has a difficult time socializing with other girls because she’s generally not a very loud person. Really bad at makeup, her fashion sense is somewhat okay but it’s always on the ‘safe’ level. Pretty good at slapstick comedy, writing and concepts tho. It’s a wonder how Nicky and Lard Imp became “friends,” they’re complete opposites.

Laird Byron as Lard Imp. Whore, Exhibit B. Extremely rude, louder than Remy and Ricky themselves, and has a weird love/hate obsession with Angel for some reason. Everyone hates her, even Rudolf himself, and Lard Imp isn’t her original drag name but ultimately they came to a point where they just called her Lard Imp. Constantly denies the judges’ and the queens’ critiques, very delusional about winning the season and that’s why she’s the first one eliminated.

Sullivan Knoth as Sallyzekiel. The Big Bad Bitch of the season. Ultimate rivals with Valentina, constantly bullies Angel. Marta used to be friends with her, but after talking shit on Valentina, she says fuck you and defended Val. Glam queen, has an affinity for shoes but damn girl terrible makeup and padding. Really good with speech, acting and impromptu.

So far, here are the character designs we have made!

(1) Blake and Trager by @/pan0pt1con

(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Waylon, Chris, Simon, Eddie, Miles and Jeremy by @/gothivican

(1) Billy, Miles, Chris, Wernicke, Pauline, Paul and Alice by @/weirdagnes

The Dare: A Guns N’ Roses FanFic

Chapter 21: A Photographer

Taglist: @queen-crue @gingerspicetalks

(Masterlist)

Chapter 21:

“You’re staring,” Mags teased as Delilah watched the photographer direct Duff on where/how to pose for the photo with the rest of the band. They looked good, they looked like rockstars.

“And you’re staring at me staring at Duff. People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones,” Delilah teased back at Mags now turning her full attention to her.

“Glass houses are stupid anyway. Imagine how much fun it would be though to destroy a glass house,” Mags fantasized before taking another sip of her drink.

“How’s Drew?” Mags blushed when Delilah mentioned his name.

“He...uhh...ya know...he’s good...and...ummm...magazine business’s is umm...good,” Mags stumbled over every work as she spoke.

Delilah smiled as Mags stumbled over her words. Yeah, she had a crush. Delilah was ecstatics that Mags had found someone. Maybe they could go on double dates together.

“Drew and Mags sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes -“ before Delauh could continue singing, Mags had covered Delilah’s mouth making her laugh.

“Duff, look at the camera!” The photographer said making Duff look away from Delilah and over towards the photographer.

“He can’t help it. I swear whenever she laughs, even if it’s a giggle, he gets this stupid ass grin on his face,” Slash immediately said without skipping a beat earning a laugh from the band.

“Young love,” the cameraman smiled back at the bassist before he continued. He hoped it lasted. Most don’t, and it would probably end in heartbreak. It was only a matter of time with bands like them. Guns N’ Roses had a reputation for being...rockstars. It was only a matter of time until they got signed and went on tour. He wondered how long Duff would last without cheeting on her, or maybe he was already and the girl didn’t even know it.

“Hey Drew, you here to interview the guys?,” Mags didn’t miss a beat when she saw Drew walk into the room.

Delilah gave Mags a quick look, yeah, just friends. Delilah shook her head and his a small chuckle as he walked over towards them. As he got closer Delilah noticed a small bruise on her collarbone. She figured he must of dropped a camera or something on his collarbone. Her heart sunk a little as she hoped he wasn’t in too much pain.

“That’s my cue to go get another drink, have fun flirting,” Delilah teased before she went to go to the drink table across the room.

“Hey Mags, and yeah! My boss liked the story I did, so he wanted me to do a quick follow up interview which will probably lead to more to be honest,” Drew replied. He wanted to punch himself in the gut, why was he nervous?

“That’s awesome! Any news on when your first story will get published?” Mags cheered back.

“Yeah, it will be out in about a week, it still doesn’t feel real. I can’t believe I’m going to be a published writer!” Mags smiled at the enthusiasm that filled his deep brown eyes.

Mags quickly saw the mark she left earlier on him right on his collarbone. She smirked and took a step closer to him. “I think I liked you better with your shirt off,” Mags tugged on the bottom of his polo shirt referencing their actions earlier in the night.

“And I like you better without your shirt as well,” he almost whispered.

“Sounds like we both got a lot in common,” Mags shrugs earning a laugh from Drew.

He took a step closer and whispered into her ear, “I’m glad we can both agree on that fucking good sex is a good pastime.”

Steven looked across the room watching his younger sister.

“You’re staring,” Delilah teasingly sung as he refilled her drink next to her. His once cheerful demeanor that had filled their conversation earlier had gone cold.

“She’s my sister, I gotta look out for her,” Delilah could feel the honestly in the way he spoke. It was sweet that he was looking after her. Delilah was then quickly flooded with memories of her siblings. The first memory that her brain brought to life was when her older brother taught her to ride a bike. She was not a natural by any means and she screamed at him when he took her training wheels off. In the end though she learned to ride her bike and he was there with her every step of the way. Also there watching and protecting her, something she will now never be able to do for her younger siblings.

“Earth to Delilah? You okay?” Steven’s voice pulled Delilah away from her memories as she took another large gulp of alcohol.

“He was a stable job you know. He seems nice. Plus she really likes him,” Delilah added changing the focus back to Mags.

“As long as she likes him and isn’t fucking him to get us interviews,” It was in that moment that Delilah began to choke on her drink. After a couple of coughs she was fine, but Duff was quickly at her side rubbing her back.

“You okay?” He asked taking her drink and placing it on the table behind her.

“Yeah, I just swallowed wrong, nothing really. You’d think by now I would have learned to drink properly,” Delilah jokes back.

“Come on, let’s get a photo together,” before Delilah could say no, Duff had dragged her over towards the couch they were taking pictures on.

The photographer immediately smiled when Duff motioned between him and Delilah. He was already done with the solo photos of the guys, so why not a few more.

“Alright, so Duff can you sit on the far left on the couch with your arm resting on the armrest?” The photographer directed as Duff quickly sat back down in the couch.

“Now, what’s you’re name?” The photographer looked over towards Delilah.

“Del,” Duff answered before she could say it herself.

“Del? That’s an odd name, is it short for something?”

“Yeah, Delilah,” she felt weird saying that name aloud. It didn’t feel right.

“That’s a biblical name. Doesn’t that mean delicate?” The photographer asked as he motioned for Delilah to lay down.

Delilah simply nodded not entirely thrilled on talking about the origin of her name.

“Now..Del, place your head in Duff’s lap and..actually can you mess up your hair a little bit?,” the photographer asked.

Delilah quickly sat up and began to mess up her hair, but stopped once she felt Duff helping. She let a laugh escape her as he purposefully threw some of her hair in her own face.

After a couple of seconds he was done and Delilah laidback down with her head in his lap.

She then felt him place his left arm down her side causing Delilah to squirm a little.

“I’m looking for a candid shot so just start talking. Let it come naturally,” the photographer said as he began to take photos of the pair.

“You look hot,” Duff looked down at Delilah who was obviously nervous. He could feel her heart racing.

“You don’t look too bad yourself,” Delilah could get used to this view, Duff looking down at her.

Duff began to tap Delilah’s thigh causing her heart rate to skyrocket.

After a couple of pictures, the two of them finished the photos and Delilah went to join Mags as Drew interviewed the band.

Delilah began to pour herself a third drink.

“Hey,” Mags said pulling Delilah’s attention from her drink.

“Hey, you and Drew seem to be doing good,” Delilah tried to hide the smirk, but Mags playfully shoved her when she saw the smirk form on Delilah’s face.

“You looked hot,” Delilah almost spat out her drink when she heard Mags speak.

“Pardon?” Delilah was taken aback by Mags comment.

“The photos that were just took with Duff, you looked hot. It’s a compliment Delilah, not an insult,” Mags said as she took another sip.

“Thanks,” Mags smiled as she saw Delilah look down and blush.

“You look good too,” Delilah’s voice was sweet as she talked to Mags.

Reasons why I know our education system is shit

- I was told by a teacher and a school counselor that my mother abused me and my siblings because we didn't help enough around the house and needed to be better kids.

- My older sister's nerdy boyfriend used to get beaten up by some boys from the football team over and over. The staff did nothing about this. One day, he had enough and when the football boys came to attack him, he ended up beating the shit out of one of his bullies in the parking lot. He was immediately expelled.

- My class wanted to make a rainbow road themed float for our mario bros themed homecoming parade but wasn't allowed to because "some people might think it's for gay pride and be offended"

- I signed up for Spanish classes in high school two years in a row and they just didn't put it in my schedule. When I asked them to fix it and put me in a Spanish class, they conveniently never got back to me about it.

- I also signed up for welding and never got it. I'm pretty sure it's because I was what they defined as a girl.

- My autistic 8 year old brother was being consistently bullied by a kid in his class. The teachers and staff did nothing to stop this kid from bullying him and left my brother alone with him despite being informed of his neurodivergency and being told that he's easily overstimulated. When my bro (after at least months if not a couple years of being bullied by this kid) turned to his bully and said "if you don't leave me alone I'm gonna kill you", he was immediately expelled.

- Speaking of my little bro, he (understandably) would become overstimulated easily and have what we always called "meltdowns" (idk if there are other words for it, that's what we always called it). Meltdowns are VERY VERY different from tantrums. People throw tantrums when they're mad about not getting their way. People have meltdowns when they become overwhelemed and aren't given space to breathe and calm down, resulting in an emotional explosion that is absolutely NOT their fault. The school's response to these meltdowns (during which my brother made an active effort to not hurt anyone) was to call my mother and tell her to come pick him up instead of calling on the resource people they had AT THE FUCKING READY who were trained to fix these situations and get him back on track. He had an IEP and a person (social worker maybe? I was young when this went down, I don't know all the details) who was specifically assigned to him to help him in these situations and the staff just? Refused to acknowledge any of that?

- ALSO SPEAKING OF MY BRO. The superintendent, in response to one of my brother's meltdowns, told my mother that she needed to "discipline him more at home" (proving that the superintendent knew absolutely fuck all about autism or neurodivergency as a whole)

- That superintendent went on to become the principal of the middle/high school and implemented a rule involving wristbands. There were three wristbands dividing the students into three groups; well behaved, in the middle (? i guess?), and badly behaved. Keep in mind, this guy is a white mormon Trump supporter who is principal of a school consisting of mostly hispanic students. So while I wasn't there for the wristband thing, I can be fairly certain the system was racially biased. I don't know a whole lot about how much the wristband system governed but I do know this: "good" students were free to take bathroom breaks whenever they pleased. "Middle" students (or whatever they were referred to as) had to ask for bathroom breaks (and were often denied). "Bad" students only got bathroom breaks between classes. Gonna piss yourself cause you gotta go in the middle of class? Too bad, guess you gotta deal with it. So needless to say, the wristband thing breaks multiple laws.

- Speaking of that principal, he flat out refused to speak to any parents/family members of students who don't speak english (this area is heavily populated by immigrants) despite having a translator at the ready who showed up to all the school related events and provided wonderful and clear translations.

- The school I went to had a program that was specifically for teaching non English speaking students to speak English. Sounds great right? Well not when you consider that they just listed a bunch of students who already spoke English under that class to make it look like they had done their job. Meanwhile when students didn't speak English, they would pair another student with them and say "teach this kid". Even I (a student who does not speak Spanish because they woULDN'T FUCKING TEACH ME HOW) was told to sit with a student who didn't speak English and told to teach her how to use the school computers.

- My school got the funding for Ipads. For most schools, Ipads/laptops/whatever other electronics they might provide to the students are used as an addition to the classes. In my school, they threw the Ipads at us with some barely followable online classes and said "teach yourselves". Teachers were reprimanded if they were caught you know, teaching? Like? Doing their job? And oftentimes, the tests included things the lessons didn't cover resulting in A+ students dropping to Ds and Fs (and of course the principal and superintendent and shitty teachers played dumb and pretended they couldn't possibly know what was causing the failure)

- With these online classes, students would be given a pretest before starting a new lesson. The pretest would consist of the content of said new lesson. If the student passed the pretest, they could skip the lesson and move on to the next. Now my friend was a real science wiz. It was his favorite subject and he generally knew a lot about it. So when he took the pretests for his science lessons, he would almost always pass them. The science teacher accused him of cheeting because NO KID could POSSIBLY pass these pretests! Just UNTHINKABLE! So if he passed a pretest, she would make him do the lesson anyway. I watched him do at least five of these pretests (probably more) and I can tell you definitively that he did not cheat. I told him he should ask the teacher to sit with him while he does the pretests and then she'll see he's not cheating. He said he had already asked her and multiple other teachers to do so and they all refused without giving him any reason.

- The one positive thing was that I was able to opt out of coming to the school to do my classes and simply used my Ipad at home for the latter half of my 12th grade year. Why was I able to do so you ask? Well, let's get into it. February of 2018. I'm at home sick. At school, a boy who's been harassing my friend for years (my friend and other kids tried to report him multiple times for harassment and the staff never did a damn thing about it) comes up to him in the locker room and says "I've got a bomb in my backpack." So this kid is threatening to blow up the school and my friend of course goes immediately to the principal at the time (another white morman trump supporter homophobic racist and literal puppet of the superintendent turned principal I mentioned earlier) and reported that this kid was claiming to have a bomb. It took half an hour for the principal to believe him and take any kind of action. When action was taken, the kids were evacuated to the old gym/lunch building (a short walk from the middle/high school). You may be wondering "what's the harm in that?" Well none... If you don't count the fact that they evacuated the kid making the bomb threat to the same bulding and put him in the same room with all the other kids. The kid who made the bomb threat then started saying he had a knife and threatening to stab students. They escorted him out. And when I say they, I mean the FUCKING JANITOR. Their reasoning for keeping him in close proximity to all the kids he was threatening to murder and then having a janitor escort him out as opposed to someone with some proper training for this kind of stuff? "We didn't wanna single him out :("

So I was allowed to do my classes at home because I made it clear I was not comfortable coming into a school where it takes half an hour to respond to a bomb threat and then when the response comes, the staff just further endangers the students. When the lady at the desk (who I'd known for six years at that point) asked me why I wanted to work from home, I said "because I don't feel safe here" and she couldn't even look me in the eyes after that.

- Not a story from my school but my grandmother was a special ed teacher in an elementary school. One of the other teachers in that school was racist as hell. This racist teacher had a hispanic student in her class named Jesus. This teacher said it was blasphemous to have the name Jesus and refused to call him that. Instead, she referred to him as "Jose" (not his name??? Tf???) Luckily, that teacher was at least punished in some way and I think fired? Good riddance.

Anyways, there's some of the reasons why I know the education system in this country (and probably almost every other country on Earth) is absolute garbage.
