Tumblr media
She’s mine
The loving atmosphere in the club had me on edge and watching Candice singing her heart to of all people my cousin had me pissed off.
“Joe, I’m ready to go,” Sasha said as I groaned watching Jey walk backstage.
“Go, pay the bill, I gotta use the bathroom,” I said giving her my credit card. Getting up I followed the path Jey had gone but discreetly.
I slowly pulled the curtain back and felt my blood boil as I watched him and Candice.
“I can’t believe this shit,” I muttered totally caught off guard with the scene in front of me.
“You know I get what you sayin’ and all, it’s just gon’ be hard not to kiss you when I want to,” Jey said as Candice laughed against him.  She blushed, she used to be this way with me, and now she’s lovin’ up on my fucking cousin.
“Who said you couldn’t?” she said pulling away from him as Jey moaned at her words.  I’ll fuckin’ kill him…..
What the fuck is happening, I mean I know I fucked up, but we always found a way to work shit out.
“So, what you sayin’ beautiful?” Jey asked, leaning her up against the wall towering over her. I saw Candice looking at Jey like she was ready to fuck him right there as she pulled him closer standing on her tiptoes.
I held my breath waiting to hear her response.
“It means It depends on your answer to my question. Can I love you in slow motion Joshua?” she whispered against his lips as Jey took her in a passionate kiss.
I couldn’t take it anymore just as I was about to interrupt the love fest I felt a gentle hand on my shoulder.
“Joe what are you doing?” Trin asked as I turned towards her having seen enough.
“Uh, nothing Sasha and I are about to head back to the room. I thought this was the bathroom but I was wrong,” I said trying to keep my face unbothered as she moved me to the side and peaked behind the curtain seeing Candice and Jey still in their own world kissing.
“Joe, let her be, she deserves to be happy. You’re with Sasha and god knows who else, why can’t she have someone,” Trin whispered as I growled….
“Not with him, Trin!” I hissed as she jumped slightly at the harsh tone of my voice. “Not with my fuckin’ cousin, I can’t let that shit slide,” I said angry more at myself than Jey if I was really honest with myself.
“Joe, she has a right to move on with her life. It’s been a year,” Trin said as I turned and began walking away from her. “She’s mine and I ain’t gon’ stand for the disrespect,” I said trying to get away as fast as I could from her nosey ass following me.
“Joe!…. Don’t do anything crazy!” Trin shouted as I waved her off storming past Jimmy completely ignoring him.
“Who the fuck, does he think he is?” I muttered seeing Sasha by the door. “Hey, what’s wrong baby,” she said trying to touch my arm as I snatched it away.
“Not now, let me take you back to the room. I ain’t in the mood tonight alright.” I said walking past her and putting on my coat.
“Well, what crawled up your ass,” she said as I turned giving her a murderous glare. “Look, you can either get in the car or you can stay here and find your own way back,” I said as she rolled her eyes.
“I know that girl Tiffany that you cheated on Candice with does everything you ask because she’s desperate, but I ain’t the one, Joe. She said as I sneered at her invading her space.
“Fine, stay yo’ ass here, and don’t call me again,” I hissed walking away from her.
“You gon' end up alone Joe because this Tribal Chief shit has gone to your head and has brought out the worst in you. What happened to you?!” She screamed as I continued walking away, ignoring her.
I didn’t need any damn lip from her, I’ll call Tiffany and get her ass back in rotation after I get Candice back where she belongs.

Trin’s POV
“Where the hell big Uce come from?” Jimmy said as I sat down beside him. “He was spying on Candice and Jey. Jurdy, he just saw them kissing,” I said totally worried now.
“Ah shit, well that ain’t good, warn Candice. I’ll try to get Uce alone,” Jimmy whispered as he pointed at Candice and Jey who were on their way back to the table.
“Hey bestie,” Candice said sitting beside me as Jey kissed her cheek. “I’ll get you a ginger ale,” he said as Jimmy looked at me. “Uh, I’ll go wit you Uce,” Jimmy said following Jey.
“What’s wrong with you? Candice said looking at me as I sighed. “Girl, Joe knows about you and Jey,” I blurted out all at once as she looked and shook her head. “Trin, I ain’t worried about Joe and what he knows. I’m with Jey and there’s nothing he can do about it,” Candice said as I hoped she was right and Joe would cool off and let her be.
Jimmy’s POV
What you gon do Uce i asked as Jey rolled his eyes at me.
"Well I’m glad he saw us, he shouldn’t have been nosey. I ain't hiding how I feel about Candice anymore," I said not caring that he knew.
I wasn’t going to hide Candice, she deserved the world and I was going to give it to her. "I want ya’ll both happy Uce. Just be careful, Jimmy said as we waited on the drinks.
"I'm always careful twin, I got this I," reassured him. Nothing Joe had going on was gonna spoil my night. I had my girl, my career, man everything was perfect right now and I was gon' enjoy it no matter who had a problem with it.

Hilton Hotel
 Atlanta, Ga
Joe’s POV
“Hey, um I was wondering if you could help me?” I asked the desk clerk who seemed to be a fan as to how she was smiling all dreamy at me. Yes, this will be a piece of cake.
 “Sure how may I help you? she asked as I smiled at her turning on the charm. “Yes, I’m in room 541 and I somehow deactivated my key. I’ve been trying to call my wife to let me in but she seems to have fallen asleep” I said as she began typing.
“The room is in my wife’s name it’s Candice Jones,” I said giving her my ID. After a few minutes, my attempt at getting a key to her room was a bust.
 “Well unfortunately there Is nothing I can do for you Mr. Anoa’i. Especially since I see you also have a room in your name on the seventh floor. Also, your name isn’t listed as a guest in room 541 either,” the clerk said as I tried to remain friendly.
“Oh, yea my wife and I always book an extra room, almost like a decoy for fans sometimes. It’s hard for us to have privacy sometimes,” I said rolling the lie off my tongue hoping she would buy it.
“I’m so sorry you guys have to do that. It’s really sad but in order for me to give you a key to that room I would need your wife to come down and give permission for you to get a key. We also can do a wellness check with security if you would like,” she said as I frowned. No, I want the fucking key.
“Uh, that’s ok I’ll keep calling her. I’m sure she will open the door soon,” I said stalking towards the elevator. Damn it! I needed to see Candice, she can’t do this to me…Not with him…No.

Hilton Hotel
Jey’s room
Candice’s POV
“Shit, let me open the door baby.” Jey moaned as I kissed and nibbled on my neck. “You been teasing me all night lookin’ sexy as fuck with all this red outfit on. I can��t control myself,” I groaned, gently biting his neck before swirling my tongue over the sensitive area as he growled.
“Fuck, well who am I to stop you? Damn, that feels so good, lose control baby,” he panted as I smirked against his throat.
“Mmm, you betta hurry up cause anybody walking by bout to see to me on my knees swallowing all dis' dick,” I moaned unsnapping his pants and sticking my hand inside caressing his dick.
 “Fuck, you wildn’, I love dat' shit,” Jey groaned as he finally got the door opened, ushering me inside.
“I want to taste you,” I whispered against his mouth taking him in a short deep kiss as Jey moaned, cradling my head as we explored each other’s mouths only pulling apart to catch our breaths.
“Are you sure? I know you wanted to wait, baby,” he said searching my eyes for apprehension as I smiled at him. “Take off your shirt,” I whispered pushing his pants and underwear down as he made quick work of his shirt throwing it across the room.
I felt my breath catch in my throat as I saw him in all his glory.  Growling Jey grasping my throat, attacking my mouth with his as I whimpered against him with need.
I wanted him so bad this whole waiting thing may have to wait. I needed him, especially with how put it down tonight earlier in that dressing room. I’ve been horny as fuck ever since.
I untied my wrap dress, pushing it off my shoulders, standing before him clad in my lacy bra and underwear set. Slowly I took them off giving Jey a show as he pulled me close to his chest.
His hands caressed my body as he looked at me with want and need.  “You so fuckin’ sexy, he moaned as I kissed him, caressing my tongue against his slowly as he growled with urgency as our tongues danced together as I pulled him closer.
“Shiiiit! I promised I wouldn’t rush you baby, but you makin’ it real fuckin’ hard Candice,” Jey panted as I smirked against his lips. Slowly pushing him against the wall, as I then kneeled before him.
“Mmhm, I see… It’s real hard Jey, I said seductively biting my lip as Jey looked at me in anticipation licking his lips.
Jey’s POV
“Shit, what you gon’ do about it, baby?” I moaned as she looked up at me innocently. Fuck that’s the most sexist shit I have ever seen.
“I’m gon’ give you what you been dreamin’ bout baby,” she moaned teasingly taking me in her mouth, gently grazing her teeth down my dick.
“Fuck, make my dreams come true and stop playin’ wit it. Suck dat' dick shit," I groaned as she took all my dick into her mouth slightly gagging. I then felt her throat relax around my dick.
“Ah fuck, you swallowed it all didn’t you baby,” hissed in shock looking down at her. “Mmhum,” she moaned as my hands went to the back of her head, her mouth vibrating on my dick making my whole body shiver as she worked me over. Damn, she knew what to do wit that sexy ass mouth.
“Got damn, that mouth, Ma,” I panted as her eyes meet mine as she continued to take me deeper and deeper.
“Yessss! Take it all in yo’ mouth baby fuck!,” I praised as she seemed to be on a mission now, sucking my dick greedily bobbing her head faster as I tried to not lose control and yank her ass up off the floor and fuck her against this wall.
 I could only see the top of her head as she was indeed giving me the best head I ever had steadily bobbing as I gasped trying to last as long as possible, but fuck her mouth felt so good.
“Look at me baby, I need to see you,” I gasped as she looked up at me. I almost came on the spot as her seductive bed eyes held me captive as she continued to please me.
I growled in gratitude seeing her this way, that slight arch in her back, her ample ass lookin’ like it was made perfectly for my hands.
Damn, dreams do come true if you wait patiently.
Candice’s POV
I have never wanted a man more than I wanted Jey right now. His eyes and moans tellin' the story of how good I’m making him feel. I can tell he was close.
I wanted him to know that I give as good as I get. He belongs to me now.
“I’m close, wait baby a second,” he moaned as ignored his pleas and began sucking him faster. “Damn, you tryin’ to make me cum ain't you? Shit, make me cum then, you can get all dis' nut baby, I faintly heard him whisper encouraging me as I continued to give him what I knew he needed.
Jey’s POV
“Here it come Candice,” I rasp cummin’ hard in her mouth, groaning as her mouth continued to milk me dry as I rubbed and caressed her back. “Fuck, I needed that," I moaned in satisfaction trying to catch my breath as my body relaxed.
“Are you ok baby?” Candice asked looking at me with a sly smirk, slowly standing up, swirling her tongue around her lips.  Groaning I closed my eyes. “I’m good…Yo', ass is deadly though,” I sighed as she laughed.
 “What are you talkin’ about, I just wanted to taste you and by the way you tasted yummy,” she purred innocently giving me a chaste kiss on the lips as I growled. “You playin’ a dangerous game,” I whispered deepening our kiss.
 “Mmm, I like playin’ dangerous when it’s with you,” she whispered as I smirked against her lips scooping her up and carrying her to bed. Yea, I could definitely get used to this.
Candice’s POV
I wanted him so bad but I said I wanted to wait but what was I waiting for exactly, we’ve known each other for years.
If it ended tomorrow, I would have no regrets and that was the honest truth. I felt safe with him and I knew he would protect me with everything within him and I really wanted him in this moment.
“Hey, where did you go beautiful?” Jey asked caressing my face as I blushed. “Just thinking is all,” I said looking at him smiling
"Aye, we ain’t gotta do nothin’ you don’t want to," he said reassuring me as I took his hand and placed it between my thighs as he groaned caressing my wet center.
"Does this feel like I'm not ready for you?" I moaned as he licked his lips, moaning at the words and the feel of my wet warmth soaking his hand.
“Damn you soakin' wet Candice, shit! Did I make you this wet baby?" Jey groaned in satisfaction never stopping his movements, rubbing my clit torturously slow.
 “Mmm, yes, you do this to me, It’s like I’m on fire,” I moaned not caring if it made me seem weak as we shared a breathless kiss as he overpowered all my senses. 
“Look at me Candice,” he commanded as I fought to open my eyes, the pleasure was too great and became more intense as our eyes met.
“I’m..I'm offering you me Candice, and you know what that is. I ain’t no Tribal chief, I’m just a man that loves you. A man who will spend forever showin’ you how special you are if you let me," he whispered as our foreheads touched.
I couldn't help but moan at his words and his skillful hands that were taking me to even newer heights of pleasure with each passing second.
I whimpered as he began thrusting one, then two fingers inside me as his thumb expertly circled my clit sending powerful tingles down my spine "Jey! Mmm, Oh my god!" I gasped as he silenced me with a kiss as I melted into him.
"Tell me what you want Candice?" Jey groaned as my heart leaped into my throat. Just say it Candice and take a chance.  
“What do you want baby?" Jey asked speeding up his movements as I pulled him closer.
"I want you," I whimpered against his lips as he closed his eyes groaning in satisfaction.
"I want everything that comes with it..... I want it all Josh," I moaned as I exploded in his arms.
"Baby, it’s right here, it’s always been Candice…All you gotta do is take it, baby," he whispered taking me in a passionate kiss, climbing between my legs as my orgasm continued to wash over me.
Jey’s POV
"I want you to make me yours," Candice moaned as I groaned, wrapping her legs around my waist. "Fuck, I’ve dreamed about this," I panted slowly entering her as we both gasped in shock and pleasure at the intense feeling of becoming one.
I stilled inside her as her tightness overwhelmed me as Candice grabbed my chain pulling me to her, claiming my lips in another kiss as I slowly began moving inside her.
"Fuck, you were made for me," I praised taking my time thrusting slow and steady inside her as I felt her tighten around my dick as Candice purred, her head thrown back in pleasure as I made her mine.
"Jey! Please, I need it she begged," as I growled taking her harder as she whimpered my name over and over.  "Who’s pussy is this Candice?" I moaned unwrapping her legs from around me, opening them wide as I went deeper inside her.
"Josh! Oh!  Baby! You know,"” Candice whined as I went even deeper. "Tell me, Candice," I demanded as she writhed in need below me.
"Yours! It’s yours Josh!" she screamed as I took us both over the edge. "Fuck yea it’s mine, and don't you forget dat' shit either," I groaned as she showered my dick with her essence.
"I love you so much," she moaned as I felt my heart swell, she loved me back.  
"I love you too baby," I whispered kissing her gently. All my waiting hadn’t been in vain. That alone made my dick hard as a rock again as I began thrusting inside her again as she gasped in surprise.
"Are you serious? Already?" She moaned against my mouth as I smirked. "Oh, Yea… you got me addicted to you Candice," I moaned as she clawed at my back.
I could faintly hear someone knocking on the wall. I guess we were too loud, but I’m sorry they are in for a long night just like Candice is.

Next door
Joe's Room
Joe’s POV
I guess I’ll try to talk to Candice later, that shit at the front desk was a bust. How could I get through to her and make her leave Jey.  
My thoughts were interrupted as I heard knocking on the wall and a woman moaning in pleasure.
Are you serious right now, I’m trying to damn sleep. I hit the wall giving my own message back to shut the fuck up but the headboard hitting against the wall didn't stop, hell it started banging harder on the wall.
"Damn, least somebody gettin' dick down good, I guess," I muttered as I heard the woman’s moan again....
"Wait…I know it isn’t," I muttered as I got out of bed and placed my ear to the wall waiting to hear the voice again.
I knew that moan anywhere…."Candice," I muttered as I could hear her clear as day.
"Jey! Oh, fuck you so deep!” Candice screamed as I jumped back from the wall in horror. "Yea, I'ma go deeper up in this pussy, fuck! Jey moaned.
"You got to fuckin' kidding me!" I hissed, putting my shirt, sweats, and shoes back on. I grabbed my keys, and phone before storming out of the room.
I couldn't stay there knowing what was goin' on next door to me.
I can't believe she let him have her....She was really having sex with Jey. The elevator ride to the next floor was torturously slow but I knew I needed a distraction to block out what I had just heard and Sasha definitely would do for now.
"Sasha open the door!" I shouted banging on her door. "Come on open up, I need some relief," I muttered to myself as she groggily opened the door.
"What do you want Joe?" she asked wiping the sleep from her eyes. "I want you," I said grabbing her in a rough kiss, leading her back into her room slamming the door behind me.

Jey’s Room
Candice’s POV
“Yeaa, bend dat ass over and lock them legs behind mine,” Jey ordered as he continued to fuck me with long, hard deep thrusts as I angled my body on the bed arching my back.
 “Oh! Yes, you deep in it! Oh my god!” I moaned as I heard Jey chuckle but quickly gasped as my pussy painful tightened around his dick. “Got damn, ma,” he panted keeping up his thrusts. 
“Yea, this pussy feels good don’t it," I taunted as Jey growled. "Shit yea, it do," he moaned. “Then don’t play wit it Jey, fuck me! We can go slow later, I promise,” I groaned throwing my ass back on his dick as he growled smacking me hard on the ass as I whimpered feeling the constant tingles exploding all over my body.
"I been waiting on you for years girl, I’ma enjoy this. Dat ass looks so fuckin good bouncin’ on my dick. You like how I’m dickin’ you down don’t you baby,” he moaned as I gasped trying to find the words.
 “Yes! I love it!” I exclaimed, with no shame. Shit, my man knew how to use his magic stick and that monster was all I imagined it to be and then some.
“Uh-huh, I can tell baby…You backed up that shit you was talkin’ out in the hall,” he groans. “You swallowed this dick and now you takin’ it all like the good girl you are.” he praised, grunting as we chased our next orgasm together.
“I’m your good girl, only your good girl,” I panted as I felt him slowing down as he growled. "Yea, you my good girl and only mine," his deep sexy voice confessed as I clawed at the sheets. What was he doing to me?
Jey’s POV
“Yea, dats it right there,” I groaned gripping Candice’s hip, pulling almost all the way out before snapping my hips hard bringing her down even harder on my dick. “Jey! Fuck!” she screamed. “Uh huh feels good don’t it baby?” I moaned watching my dick disappear inside her pussy as it pulsated around me.
“Yes, Jey, shit you..I…I,” she screamed grabbing the headboard for leverage as she continued to throw that beautiful ass back on my dick unable to finish her sentence.
“I know it, baby, I'ma take care of you, I promise,” I groaned feeling myself not very far behind her. “Jey….Jey… Oh, baby… Jey,” she moaned almost chanting, clawing at the headboard as my resolve snapped and I began taking her fast and deep again.
Candice’s POV
Oh, my God, my legs are jelly and he feels so good. I was so close when suddenly I found myself on my back with Jey towering over me.
 “I need something from you,” he moaned entering me again as I gasped wrapping my thighs around him, pulling his closer.
“What baby?" I asked gasping as he gently kissed me, "Tell me your mine," he I commanded as I smiled against his lips.
"I’m yours," I moaned as I felt myself about to come undone in his arms again. "I’m yours too shit, promise you never leavin' me,” he groaned as he continued to stake his claim.
"I won’t, I promise,” I moaned as our eyes never left each other. Everything seemed to become more intense by the second as I met his thrusts with anticipation
“Oh my god!” I gasped as he swallowed my screams with his mouth as I came hard.
“Good girl, you did so good baby, Jey praised me as bit my lip in anticipation of his release and still feeling euphoric from my own.
“Are you gonna cum for me?”  I gasped as I felt him getting harder by the second as he took me with wild abandon.
“Hell yea, I’m bout to give it all to you,” Jey moaned as I licked my lips “Mmm, I want you to cum in my mouth this time baby,” I begged as Jey growled at my words, biting his lip. “You do baby?” he gasped in shock as I nodded.
“I want every last drop,” I panted as he, quickly pulled out, leaning over, shoving his pulsating dick in my welcoming mouth.
“Ah fuck!" He shouted cummin’ hard as I moaned at the feel of his warm essence coating my mouth. Sweat fell from his brow as he tried to catch his breath. As his body relaxed, he pulled out of my mouth. “Ooouu shit, That was hot as fuck he praise as I smiled tiredly at him.
"Come on and let daddy see did you get it all baby," he whispered as I opened my mouth, releasing my tongue so he could see his essence on it.
As he watched me closely with hunger in his eyes, I closed my mouth and swallowed it as he grabbed my throat taking me in a possessive kiss.
“You gon’ end up barefoot and pregnant, you keep doin’ that shit, he growled against my lips as I laughed shaking my head at his words because knowing him it was true.
"Any regrets?" I asked as he pulled me close. "Hell nawl girl, you stuck wit my ass now," he said as I smiled at him. "You stuck with me too," I whispered settling into his arms as we finally found rest.

Smackdown
Candice’s POV
“Thank you so much so helping us out tonight with the photoshoots. This damn flu is getting everybody. But if I could I had one more favor to ask you,” Paul said releasing me from his embrace. 
“You know you good boss, and that I don’t mind helping. Jey was already scheduled for the show, so I was going to be here anyway,” I said as he smiled at me.
 “Yea, I heard about the new development, and good for ya’ll.  You both deserve some happiness,” he said as I blushed.
“So uh, what else did you need me to do?” I asked trying to change the subject.
“Oh! yeah, could you sing the National Anthem tonight? Samantha is sick so Braxton is going to announce for us tonight, but he sings like a dying cat,” he said as I laughed.
“Sure, no problem, I would love to,” I said as he sighed in relief.
“Thank you so much, now I gotta make sure these cameras are ready to go for the show,” he said looking at his paper quickly before rushing off, waving at Jey who was walking up.
“Hey, you! What they got you doin’ tonight?” I asked as Jey frowned. I’ma open the show and introduce Cody. Joe gon’ come out talking about why are we on his show, and exchange a few words, he said as I could see the internal battle he was having.
“Are you ok with that baby? I asked as he sighed, taking me in his arms. “I’m ok baby, and I don’t want you to worry yo' pretty lil head bout me. Joe and I both know how to keep business and personal separate,” Jey said gently caressing my chin.
"I sure hope so," I said as he gave me a chaste kiss on the forehead as I relaxed in his arms. Hopefully, Joe could remain professional, and the program would go smoothly.

Smackdown
Jey’s POV
Ladies and Gentlemen, please rise for our National anthem Byron Saxton said as the house lights shined brightly on Candice as she began to sing.  
Standing there in Gorilla I couldn’t help but beam wit pride watching her in her element. My baby was truly talented, and the crowd was eating it up.
“She got them in the palm of her hand. I always knew she belonged on somebody’s stage; I’ve always told her that,” Joe said walking up to me to get a better view of the TV. “Yea, she really does, I’m proud of her,” I said not looking away from the TV.
 I don’t know the real reason for this small talk all of a sudden but I just hope he keeps this shit professional out there.
“Well let’s go tear it down out there lil Jey,” Joe said as I watched Candice wave to the crowd before she left the ring to go stand beside Saxton.
 Turning to look at Joe I scoffed at his attempt to get me off my game. “A’ight big Uce, I’m down, but if you go out there wit that lil Jey shit we gon’ have a problem,” said as he smiled at me.
“Well, why is that? You call yourself standin’ up to me now? Oh, i get it Candice got you feeling yourself, huh," he asked smirking at me.
 “Nah, Uce, I just ain’t the same scared lil Jey from when we was kids, and if you go out here throwing shots. I’ma get you…You feel me, I don't give a damn if this is a live show. I will rock yo’ shit, you understand,” I said watching the smile drop from Joe’s face.  
"Yea, I got you, Candice is off limits because this is about business," Joe said as I gave him a leary stare before walking away to go further to the curtain to get ready for my entrance.
I didn’t trust his ass as far as I could throw him. "Go kill it Uce, and keep your head in the game," Cody said as I dapped him up. "Thanks, see you out there, Uce," I said smiling as I heard the crowd as Saxton began to introduce me.
Candice’s POV
"Main Event Jey Usooo! Byron screamed as Jey’s music dropped and the crowd went nuts. Damn, there he goes I couldn’t help but feel a tingle down my spine watching my boyfriend. His ass knows what he be doin’ the guys are hyped and the girl’s panties are wet as fuck.
“Damn baby I see you," I muttered watching him bounce his body in excitement coming down the aisle. This was my first time watching his entrance live with the crowd and it was something to behold.
The crowd sang and bounced their arms in the air along with him. I was so proud of him; he really had made it. He came over to the ropes as Saxton gave him the extra microphone.
 I smiled at him as he winked at me before returning to the center of the ring. Damn it now I’m blushing. Get it together girl.
I hope the camera didn’t pick that up. That’s all we need is a post from fans asking who was Jey Uso winking at.
Before he could even start talking and introduce Cody, Joe’s music interrupted him. “What the hell? He was supposed to wait until Jey was about to introduce Cody and not run his ass out her before Jey could even speak,” I whispered to Braxton having a bad feeling as he shrugged his shoulders.
“Maybe they changed it," Saxton said as I turned to look at Jey. He was not amused as Joe made his way to the ring flexing with the title around his waist.
He spotted me as he climbed in the ring and ever so slyly, he licked his lips and smirked at me as Jey’s head snapped in my direction angry as I shook my head at Joe’s antics.
I looked at Jey and gave him a nod, encouraging him to keep his cool. He sighed, turning back to face Joe running his fingers over his face.
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s a tense scene as this is the first time since Jey Uso quit smackdown that he has seen his cousin Roman reigns I heard Cole say.
“You can go behind me through the crowd and go to the back without anyone seeing you if you want,” Saxton whispered as I nodded but couldn’t move from the spot, I was stuck in.
Joe’s POV
“Lil Jey, what you doin’ on my show?” I asked knowing I was getting under Jey’s skin as I saw his jaw twitch. “I mean you quit! Cody got you signed to Raw. So why are you at my show lil Jey? I asked smugly.
 “Aye, I got a tag match tonight with Cody, I ain’t sweatin’ you Uce and It ain’t gon’ be too many more lil Jey’s a’ight,” Jey said rocking back in forth trying to control his temper.
“You always wanted to be me. When we were kids, I beat your ass in everything. Even now you still want to be me don’t you lil Jey? I asked as Jey frowned.
“Man, ain’t nobody tryin’ to be you Uce, I’m my own man,” Jey said frustrated as I laughed.
 “Nah, even to this day you always wondered if you measure up to the Tribal Chief.  You just seem drawn to things that you can’t have..That I won’t let you have,” I gloated laughing caressing my title as I saw the realization wash over Jey’s face.
He knew I was talking about Candice and I wanted him to know.
“Aye! What did I tell you?  Watch yo’ mouth before we have a problem," Jey said angrily pointing at me as I laughed.
 “Maybe I want a problem lil Jey, because it seems you just like takin’ things of mine that don’t belong to you. My precious, beautiful luscious things,” I said gently bouncing my title up and down on my waist my eyes slowly traveled to Candice.
Her eyes pleaded with me to stop as I could tell she was uncomfortable, but all things were fair in love and war.
Jey’s POV
This motherfucka lookin’ at Candice trying to be slick wit his lil words. If hints about her one more time, damn this show and staying in character, I’ma fuck him up. She’s mine now, not his.
Dropping my microphone low so nobody could hear, I leaned over and put my hand behind Joe’s neck, as he wore a frown almost outdone I lowered my microphone.
“I ain’t doin’ this bullshit wit you out here, But I promise you If you say her name out here in front of all these people, I’ma get you Uce..You gon’ have to see me,” I said deathly calm as Joe’s face contorted in anger mouthin’ words I couldn’t understand but I didn’t care.
“Now get back on script so I can go my way and you go yours, wit yo’ miserable ass,” I said wanting to finish the segment and leave.  
Candice’s POV
I can only imagine what Jey said to Joe as things were getting more tense by the second.
“You think you a big man, huh, Lil Jey? You can’t compare to me…This is all mine cause I’m the champ, I run this show! Joe exclaimed in the microphone gesturing to the arena.
This is my camera!” he yelled talking into the camera. Thank God they seem to be back on track with their segment. This had truly been a trainwreck thanks to Joe who was now at the commentator’s table.
“I own these commentators that talk about me and nobody else!” Joe yelled pointing at Cole and Wade before he slowly began walking toward Saxton and I.
“Aye, watch it,” Jey said seeing Joe coming towards us.
“I even own the ring announcer! I’m trying to get you to understand Jey everything belongs to me, and you can’t have it!” he said in his commanding deep voice almost making me jump.
I saw Jey getting out of the ring, heading towards us as I froze.
Joe now stood in front of me almost as if he was contemplating what to say as he bit his lip looking me over. Joe wouldn’t put me out here like that in front of all these people.
He knows how private I am about my personal life. He isn’t going to do this to me, he just wants to rile up Jey.
 “Candice…… Aulelei, how bout you tell lil Jey how I own every inch of you,” Joe bragged smirking at me as I slapped him before I could stop myself.
“You son of a bitch, I can’t believe you did this!” I shouted as Jey grabbed Joe’s arm, turning him around, punching him in the face.
Joe almost collided with me from the force of Jey’s punch. Thank god Saxton was fast-moving and moved me out of the way.
 “I told yo’ ass not to say her name!” I could hear Jey yell as they traded blows. “Somebody stop them!” I yelled as Paul Heyman came over to me offering a comforting arm. “Let’em fight it out sweetheart it was bound to happen,” he said as I groaned in frustration.
I didn’t want Jey to get in trouble because of me.  As they brawled back and forth backstage officials ran from the back.
The crowd was eating it up thinking it was part of the show.  “Let’s get you outta here, ok,” Heyman said gently guiding me behind Saxton as we made our way through the crowd to the backstage area.
Jey’s POV
“Jey, that’s enough!” an official yelled as I threw Joe onto the announcer’s table and pounced, punching him over and over as I felt someone lift me off of him.
“Aye, let me go!" I yelled as Joe charged towards me as we fell threw the ringside guardrail trading blows. "I’ll kill you!” Joe roared. “We need more help!” another official yelled as I felt like an untamed animal trying to tear apart my cousin.
You gon’ learn today, stop fuckin’ wit people.
Joe’s POV
“This shit ain’t over!" I yelled as Jey, and I were trying to tear each other apart.
“You damn right it ain’t cause every time you disrespect Candice, I’ma beat yo’ ass again!” Jey yelled as he got the last lick, kicking me in the face as security lifted us both up off the floor separating us.  
Jey held his hands up in surrender as security grabbed his arms leading him backstage. “Damn, his lil ass can hit hard,” I muttered regaining my bearing and grabbing my title as the crowd booed me.
“Shut up!” I hissed heading to the back wiping the blood from my mouth as several officials walked back with me.  
Candice’s POV
The backstage area was even more chaotic as a group security and officials were leading Jey backstage.
“What the fuck ya’ll all on me for! He been askin’ for this ass whoopin’!" Jey shouted pulling away from security.
“Calm down Jey, this ain’t helping, go check on Candice” Heyman said which seemed to snap Jey outta his rage as he came towards me. "I’m so sorry baby," he whispered taking me into his arms as I felt relieved he was ok.
“I’ll beat yo ass Jey that was so unprofessional! Joe yelled coming into Gorilla as I rolled my eyes at him trying to pass the blame like he didn’t do shit.
 “Unprofessional, are you serious? They shoulda’ let Jey whoop your ass some more because you deserve it with that shit you just pulled!” I hissed mad as hell as Paul stood up from the monitors and I could tell he wasn’t happy either.  
“Joe, in my office Now!” Paul shouted as Jey grabbed my hand as we stood side by side waiting to hear what our boss was going to say next.
“Candice I’m really sorry about all this, Jey take her back to her office, I'll handle this,” He said as Jey nodded before leading me away from the chaos.
Joe’s POV
“What the fuck do you need to talk to me about?" I asked shaking my mouth, tryin' to loosen up my jaw as I could feel Paul’s anger spilling off of him in droves.
“I need to see if I’m going to have you as world champion on this show, or if I’m going to vacate your title for that shit you just pulled out there with Candice and Jey,” he said his voice booming angrily throughout the small space.
“I’m sorry boss, I don’t know what came over me,” I said trying to smooth things over as he looked at me not buying what I was selling.
“No your not, my show is in the shitter tonight because of your selfishness. Candice feels violated, Jey’s pissed off , and I don’t blame him quite frankly.
“It wasn’t my intention boss, I just got carried away,” I said honestly wiping the last bit of blood from my mouth.
I knew I was going to have a black eye in the morning with how It was hurting but my pride was hurting worse.  
 “Because of the shit you pulled Cole is out there having to explain to the audience and the people at home how that wasn’t a part of the show and to respect everyone’s privacy at this time even though you brought them into ya’ll business Paul hissed.
Your right, that’s not how we handle business,” I said as he interrupted me.
“You jeopardized this show and put Candice in a situation she didn’t ask for. You damn right that ain’t how we handle business or what we stand for, so for the moment you’re suspended. Now get outta my building,” Paul growled walking off as I sighed looking around at the crowd that had formed looking at me in shock.
Damn, what is wrong with me...
Jey’s POV
“I’m ok Candice,” I said trying to reassure her as she looked me over. “I don’t want you to have to go through this type of shit because of me Jey, “she said trying to keep her tears at bay.
"Aye, don’t cry baby, I’m good, and it’s not because of you. This all on Joe,” I said taking her in my arms as she held on to me tight.
“This should have never happened,” she whispered as I comforted her.
I knew in my heart this blow-up was bound to happen wit Joe and in a way, I’m kinda glad it did.
Tonight, he found out I ain’t no punk and I fight for what’s mine. I don’t think he will be a problem anymore.
“I’ma talk to bossman right quick, then come back and watch you do your thing ok?” I said making her smile as I kissed her gently.
" I’ll be here waiting," she whispered letting me go as I opened the door, I came face to face with Joe.
“What you doin' here? What, you wanna go again?” I asked as Joe shook his head. "Nah, I come in peace," he said, sighing I allowed him inside, as I went to stand beside Candice.
“I just wanted to apologize to you both and tell you I’ve been suspended. I thought you should hear it from me,” he said as I looked at him really not knowing how to feel.
The silence became defining as I tried to find the right words to say
. “Joe, maybe the time off can help you clear your mind, and get stuff straight. All this stuff you’ve been doing isn’t you, and you better than this,” Candice said holding my hand as Joe glanced down at our intertwined hands and sighed.
“You really love her don’t you Jey?” He asked as I looked at Candice, then back at him.
“I always loved her, you know that Uce,” I said honestly as rubbed his hand over his face. He was fighting an internal battle I couldn’t help him with.
He had to let her go, she wasn't his anymore.
 “Are you in love with Jey, Candice?” Joe asked as I felt her grip tighten on my hand. “Yes, I am in love with Jey,” she answered without hesitation her eyes firmly on me as I kissed her hand.
“Well, I guess that’s it, huh," Joe said as Candice looked at him in confusion.
"Uh, Jey, take care of her, she's very special. And if you don’t,” Joe started as I interrupted him, “I’ll be expectin’ you Big Uce,” I said as he nodded and left without another word.
“Did he just do what I think he did?" I asked Candice as she seemed to not be believing what had just happened either.
“I guess only time will tell,” she whispered as Finn Balor walked in.
“Candice are you ready for me? he asked with a smile as she waved him further into the room.
“Yes, I’m ready, if you can stand over there we can get started,” she said giving my hand a final squeeze before going to pick up her camera.
 “Alright Finn let’s work,” she said laughing as he flashed her a goofy grin and began posing. I loved watching her work, but my mind was still on Joe…
I mean was it over and done like that or did he have something else up his sleeve?
I guess Candice is right only time will tell. But for now, I had my lady and that was all that mattered.

Loving Mr. Munson
In the beginning- Meeting Mr. Munson
TW- There are no warnings in this short little blub, reader finally gets to meet Eddie for the first time, Eddie is an adorable hot mess, a little flustered because he wants to make a good impression but he quickly finds out that she fits right in.....

Reader:
" You have nothing to worry about Babe, he's going to love you."
You and Robbie had been going out for a month now and tonight you had been invited to Sunday night family dinner, a weekly occurrence at the Munson household. Robbie and his Father Eddie were very close, which you thought was very sweet. They made time to hang out together at least once a week despite their busy work and school schedules. Eddie was a mechanic and owned his own garage 'Munsons Vintage and Foreign Auto Repair and Restoration.' where he fixed and fully restored expensive cars. He had built the business for himself and eventually for his son all while being a single parent, and you really admired that. It must not have been easy, it must have taken a lot of drive and ambition, just raising a kid alone must have been as hard as hell, and yet he managed to do it all, and send his kid to college. That seemed incredible to you.
" I just hope I make a good impression. You said I'm the first girl you have ever brought home to meet him."
" Mostly because I was afraid he would scare them away." Robbie laughed. " He's a total Metalhead, long hair, covered in tattoos, he was in a band in high school, looks scary but honestly he's a total softy. He's the best dad in the world."
It made your heart melt hearing him talk about his father." Don't worry, I don't scare easily."
" He's not the most amazing cook in the world, I think he is planning on making spaghetti, that is his specialty. I am literally just trying to prep you for every possible Dad scenario."
" I'm sure it will be great. He sounds awesome. I hope he likes my brownies."
" He will." Robbie turned into the driveway of a cute ranch style home and turned off the car. " We're here!"
You breathed in a deep breath then let it out before getting out of the car. " Here goes nothing!" You would be lying if you said that you weren't nervous, his Father was so important to him, what if he doesn't like you?
Robbie took your free hand and walked you to the door, he knocked than slowly opened the door and stepped inside." Hey Pops!"
You followed him into the livingroom and closed the door behind you. The house was a little cluttered but clean and very homey, definitely a bachelor pad.
" Smells good in here Dad!" Robbie said turning his attention to the kitchen.
There, standing in front of the kitchen stove was Eddie Munson,and he was stirring what you assumed was the spaghetti sauce, and it smelled wonderful.
From the back he was tall, with dark wavy hair pulled back into a bun at the nape of his, he had broad shoulders, and a  trim waist and you could see from where you stood the tattoos that covered his arms. When he turned towards you, you blinked. The resemblance between the two Munson men was astonishing. You first noticed his kind dark eyes, Robbie's eyes, then his wide, friendly smile. You were caught off guard by how young and how good looking he was, if you were being honest he looked more like he would be a brother to Robbie, not his father.
You watched as Eddie wiped his hands on a dishtowel that he had thrown over the shoulder of his old faded Metallica shirt, then made his way over.
" Hey kid," he wrapped Robbie up into a big hug and squeezed him, Robbie squeezing him right back. When they pulled apart he turned his full attention to you and you felt your cheeks get hot. " It's nice to finally meet you Sweetheart. I have heard so much about you." His smile was warm and made the corners of his big puppy dog eyes crinkle and brought dimples to his cheeks.Any nervousness that you had felt earlier washed away. There was nothing scary about this man.
You smiled." It is so nice to meet you Mr. Munson.  I have heard so much about you as well. Thank you so much for the invitation." You reached out and shook his big, rough hand, and he gave yours a gentle squeeze then brought it up to his mouth and kissed your fingers, you felt your face get warm again.
" Please, call me Eddie. Mr. Munson makes me feel old as hell. We keep things pretty casual around here. Please make yourself comfy, my house is your house . " His gaze wandered over your face then drifted down to the dessert plate you held in your hand. " Holy shit are those brownies ?"
You laughed. " Robbie said brownies were your favorite."
" My absolute favorite. Are these made from scratch?"
" Yup, my Grams secret recipe- they have a very special ingredient added in-"
" Pot?" He smirked.
You chuckled." Not exactly. Crushed up toffee bars and chocolate chips, they are so addicting."
" Sounds fucking amazing, I'm going to try one, is it alright if I try one?"
" Absolutely!" You handed the plate over.
" They are incredible Dad." Robbie slid an arm around your waist pulling you close, he smiled obviously happy that things were going so well.
Eddie wasted no time, lifting the plastic cling wrap, he grabbed the first brownie he saw and took a big bite. He closed his eyes and nodded as he chewed." Fuck, those are good."
" I told you."
Eddie opened his eyes again and smiled at you." Better hang on to this one Rob, she's a keeper. She's cute, polite and she makes gourmet Brownies from scratch, Yup, hold on tight-" there was a slight burning smell coming from the oven," Fuck! The garlic bread! I'm always burning the goddamned garlic bread! I got distracted!" You watched him hand the brownies over to Robbie ,then run over to the oven and open the door. He grabbed a pot holder from a drawer and pulled it out. " Shit, shit shit!" He set it down on top of another pot holder. " I think I caught it just in time, I think it can be salvaged."
" I'm sure it's fine!" You smiled, then noticed that the pasta water was about to boil over. "Eddie, the water-" You ran over and pulled the lid from the pot just as it was about to boil over.
" Thanks Princess. I'm really making one hell of a first impression aren't I?" He laughed and leaned back against the counter.
" It's alright, Robbie already warned me, he said you were a big , scary Metalhead, " You smirked," but I've come to the conclusion that the only thing that's scary about you is your cooking skills. Other than that you seem like you are a total teddy bear."
Eddie burst out laughing." I've known you 10 minutes and I already know I like you, I really fucking like you."
You smiled." I think I like you too Sir-"
" Please don't ever call me fucking Sir again." Eddie laughed again." And by the way, you are welcome here anytime Sweetness-"
" Hear that Robbie? I'm invited over here anytime!"
" Maybe next time you can do the cooking baby." Robbie smirked.
" What the hell is wrong with my cooking you little Shit? You've eaten it your whole life, and you didn't die, did you? No."
" No I didn't, but then I started eating her food and I'm telling ya Pops, " Robbie did a chef's kiss." Amazing."
" They always said the way to a Man's heart is through his stomach. You're a lucky guy Robbie. " Eddie smiled at you. " So Darlin, have you ever made a pot roast?"
" Are you putting in your request for next weekend? Do you want homemade dinner rolls too?"
" Are you fucking kidding me? Is there anything this girl can't do?" He looked over at Robbie then his eyes quickly flicked back to you."That would be fucking amazing. "
" Done!"
Robbie laughed and kissed the top of your head. "So,uh, Welcome to our family."

I won't be offended if you prefer to delete this but your post about Tyler had me thinking...
Caroline really made his grief over his mother dying about her so much so that she issued the worst ultimatum and left herself with...
A drunk old man that used to be her teacher.
A long time friend that never seemed like he got over Elena and definitely has codependent issues with his brother so much so that he sacrificed himself willingly a day after their wedding.
And a power hungry hybrid who gave her money he could more than afford to give and said pretty words but also tortured, enslaved and killed people she was connected to....and also definitely had codependent issues with his brother.
I cannot fathom it.
All true facts. It’s late here so a meta! :D
As a huge Forwood shipper and I’m equally very critical of them. It’s a great ship for them both at first, then becomes a ship only for Caroline’s needs and development which isn’t fair to Tyler That Klaroline/Steroline shadow made those fans believe Tyler was the worst Caroline could get. When in reality he was the BEST romantic partner and friend she ever had.
What upsets me more about that ultimatum that Caroline FORCED is that she’s the only one we see comforting Tyler after Carol’s death. Even before Carol died, and Tyler was skeptical about being alpha she uplifted him and Tyler heavily respected what she had to say and went full force with it. Mind you, this is the same Tyler that broke every bone in his body just to be with Caroline. Then re-agreed to slavery for Care. Forwood communicated with each other and called out their faults. The other tvdu ships weren’t doing that!—then we get this full arc of Caroline’s grief and remember she bluntly told Tyler to get over the fact that she hooked up with Klaus because of her impulses and she’s not good1!!1
The series wanted to bury Forwood and they did so in the worst ways imaginable. Caroline gets pregnant with Alaric’s babies forcibly. (I understand Candice was pregnant but they could’ve hid her belly so Caroline wasn’t pregnant.)-Oh and we can’t forget Alaric was in love with her and proposed.
Steroline was supposed to follow the friends to lovers build up the way Forwood did and it never appears that Stefan is all in the way Caroline is. Tbh, even before the wedding Stefan wanted out the relationship he tried multiple times to end things in s8. Caroline refused and wanted it to work. Building them up after Liz’s death was a choice. Stefan manipulated Caroline heavily to when it came Tyler and their relationship.
Klaroline has no obstacles to pass with them. Klaus may give Caroline pretty things, and money but emotionally he’s never shown to give Caroline any support. When Caroline saves Bonnie from those 12 witches which is her first huge kill(correct me if I’m wrong) since s2 she immediately goes to Klaus and he basically tells her to get away from him. Klaus mentions how she’s too good for that small town but Caroline had never said she hated her home. What she did hate was Klaus grown ass destroying shit. They never had a serious conversation about anything tbh. I did enjoy how Caroline called him out at first but TO’s “you aren’t the villain in my story.” Ruined that. Oh and lol these shippers get on Damon for his rape of Caroline yet somehow, someway excuses that Klaus attempted to rape Caroline too in Tyler’s body…. Anyways! I do think a lot of Klaroline is rooted in Klaus wanting control over Tyler, and Caroline is a way to exert control over Tyler because of his love for her.
Okay this is long af, sorry! To end this off Tyler loved Caroline for who she was. He never wanted her to change, he valued and respected her. Never abused her or anyone she loved. He listened to what she had to say. Caroline’s other love interests NEVER saw her the way Tyler did. Btw, I wish people understood Tyler never, not once slutshamed Caroline for having sex with someone else. He was only mad that she slept with Klaus as if Klaus did not ruin Tyler’s life and murdered his mother. There’s obviously a reason Caroline didn’t want Tyler to know and continued to ignore the boundaries he placed up in s5 so they could just go back to the way SHE wanted them to be. It’s sad they were ruined because 5B of Forwood has moments where you can forget their broken up just based on Forwood’s chemistry. I forgot to add, some fans pretend Tyler couldn’t give Caroline a good life. Tyler wasn’t financially struggling, and would’ve done anything she asked of him. I think it’s a little problematic that Tyler did say everything he liked about himself was Caroline lol. But, he wanted nothing but her and their happiness. Just without the enslavement from Klaus.
Thank you for the ask!

BLEACH TYBW Anime Cour 2 Booklet: Behind the Scenes [Translation - Part 2]
Translated by @reikorun
Section 4
Scene Direction & "BLEACH" In-depth
13. A colorful, spinning pinwheel. When it suddenly stops and disappears into a black mist, that was the signal for the invasion to begin. (ep. #14)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
I truly think that was a job very well done by Murata-san, who was in charge of directing this storyboard. I reckon the idea that peace ends the moment the pinwheel stops may have resonated deeply with viewers as an abstract motif.
14. The organization known as the "Sternritter" and its members are explored in depth in the anime. In order to strengthen the impression of their unity as a group, one additional element introduced in the anime is the concept and designation of "Wörtlich", which is the collective term for those who have been bestowed a Schrift by Yhwach. (ep. #15)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
Keeping in mind the idea of placing focus on the group that is the "Sternritter", when I revisited the original work, I noticed that each character's personality was so unique that there weren't many scenes where they assembled as a group and did something together. Therefore, we added a scene where the Grandmaster, Haschwalth, is positioned as the leader and the Wörtlich who possess a Schrift are gathered together in the same room. We structured it with a view to explicitly define what their purpose is and what kind of group they are. By doing so, I believe we were able to more clearly present the policy held unanimously by the Quincy side, that is, "to completely annihilate the Shinigami." During that meeting, we also had Haschwalth demonstrate his leadership by explaining the significance of "killing the Captains with their own stolen Bankai" in a way that is easy to understand even for new viewers.
A: Tite Kubo
It's a scene where they all come together in the same place, typical of BLEACH, isn't it? I suppose It's a homage to the past compositions where the Shinigami and Espada hold meetings, and it turned out to be something more than just fan service.
15. As for Giselle, Liltotto and Meninas, "Vollständig - Sklaverei" is depicted following on from Quilge, incorporating a "transformation scene" unique to the anime. (ep. #21)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
When explaining "Sklaverei" to Satō-san, who was in charge of directing the episode in question, it all started when I said, "It's about gathering Reishi from the surroundings to power up and take on something like a second form." When I looked at the storyboard that was sent up to me, it had turned into a scene reminiscent of the magical girl genre, so to speak. I was in two minds after I was asked "Isn't this what you meant…?" But I adopted the idea after considering that, in its own way, it could accentuate the individuality and presence of their characters. 
A: Tite Kubo
I also couldn't help but laugh in a positive sense after seeing the staging of that transformation scene. I thought "magical girl, huh!?" (Laughs) I originally created the five members of the Bambies with the image of an idol group and sentai-like shows in mind, so it seemed like a perfect fit. 
16. The volume of combat scenes involving the Bambies itself has also increased. (ep. #21)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
As for their entrance in episode #21, I wanted to expand on Ichigo's battle scenes upon his return to the Seireitei, this was a moment where I felt it may be possible to make that happen. This is the scene in which Ichigo draws his sword for the first time after having undergone training in Irazu Sandō, and it's precisely because extra scenes were being added that I felt it's the place where I wanted to try doing that. When I asked Kubo-sensei to design the Sklaverei forms for Candice and the others, we received materials on their techniques along with it, further accelerating the process. Although Kubo-sensei had mentioned that we didn't have to use everything, the more we looked at it, the more we wanted to incorporate it all, and the result is what you see.
A: Tite Kubo
I handed over the materials thinking that there was absolutely no way it would all fit given the time constraints, but surprisingly, everything was included. During the dubbing session, I was astonished to see that the number of shots had increased significantly compared to other episodes (laughs).
Tumblr media
17. The spotlight was also cast on battles such as Kuchiki Byakuya vs NaNaNa Najahkoop, Robert Accutrone and Candice Catnipp. (ep. #23)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
In the original work, they simply appear in one panel after being defeated by Byakuya, don't they? We decided to take the liberty of supplementing the parts where we thought such a battle would have taken place. Since the TV anime follows a fixed length format, there are often times where it becomes necessary to extend the duration while deciding which part of the story to depict and where it should start and end. On such occasions, you can find the answer by rereading the original work. Given that there are as many battles as there are characters, we pick out what's likely to be the scenes that fans would like to see from among the parts that were omitted in the original work, and so we took the opportunity to add those part in thinking "let's track the movements of this character until they appear again in this panel."
18. The power of Gremmy's "The Visionary" may have troubled the production team the most. (ep. #20)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
I think it was challenging for the animators. After all, Gremmy can do just about anything. An all-out battle demonstrated by an individual who possesses an extraordinary power, capable of instantly creating huge debris, a large volume of water, a countless number of firearms, and to top it all off, even a colossal meteorite and the vacuum of space. If we ended up condensing it to be more brief, Gremmy's power itself becomes proportionally smaller, so I think it was a part that required energy and perseverance.  
A: Tite Kubo
This aspect turned out to be a difficult scene to depict even in the original work (laughs). The CG of the firearms and the choreography of Kenpachi when he slashes the meteorite were also great.
Tumblr media
19. Kuchiki Rukia's Bankai, "Hakka no Togame". Its checks were carried out carefully. (ep. #19)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
If you look at the panels in the original work, there is something like an updraft in a place that appears to be above Rukia, along with a circular area reminiscent of the Tsukishiro unleashed by her Sode no Shirayuki. I didn't quite understand how Rukia performs Bankai, what kind of phenomena occurs, or what mechanism it was that brought down Äs Nödt, so I asked Kubo-sensei: “Sequentially, when activating her Bankai, a freezing mist resembling the surface of a lake appears beneath her feet and in the sky, with a column of freezing mist emanating from Rukia herself piercing through the center.” We have faithfully reflected that. Furthermore, the slight translucency of Rukia's hair and skin is an original expression of the anime.
A: Tite Kubo
During the storyboarding stage, Taguchi-san had noted down "it's so beautiful that it takes your breath away (that's the kind of visual we need to incorporate)." So I've been looking forward to the finished product ever since. Regarding the framework of this Bankai too, I created the materials for it while looking back at my original work and retracing my memories from that time. That task was also fun. Additionally, the length of this episode had slipped into overtime, but since Äs Nödt is a character who tends to talk ominously for long periods of time, which is a 'characteristic trait' that defines him, we discussed if we could somehow manage without cutting anything. Ultimately, I had it made into a special ending format, I thought to myself how exceedingly well it turned out in the end.
20. Zero Division vs the Schutzstaffel. While adhering to the source material, the development spun in the anime original culminates in Shutara Senjumaru, thus raising expectations for the third cour. (ep. #26)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
As for the battle scene at the Soul King Palace, which can also be described as a clash between the strongest forces of both factions, I wanted to cast more of a spotlight on Uryū, who has been positioned as the face of the second cour. Although Kubo-sensei couldn't draw him due to page limitations, the Uryū that he wanted to draw must be somewhere. I want to see and portray the Bankai of Zero Division. That's the sort of thing I had in mind. So, I contemplated the matter in my head, hoping to express it in the anime, including the motive behind it. After formulating various plans, I presented my ideas to Kubo-sensei, and thus with a significant amount of cooperation from sensei, an anime episode like no other was completed.
21. The chosen, Shutara Senjumaru, and her Bankai. (ep. #26)
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
Once the idea of "Zero Division Bankai" is settled upon, the next challenge arises: "whose Bankai will it be?" In the case of Senjumaru, who bears the meaning of 'having a thousand arms' in her name, we assumed she probably specializes in doing battle with several opponents at the same time. Believing that It is precisely because she is suited for one-to-many battles, we considered her to be the person that the other members of Squad Zero could entrust their fight to without hesitation, so we proposed this to Kubo-sensei from the anime side around the same time. 
The visual for Senjumaru's Bankai itself was a completely original idea which we received from Kubo-sensei. The visual based on a giant loom and the depiction of its activation, abilities and techniques were also provided by Sensei through illustrated materials which he had drawn up for us. We then proceeded to develop a scenario based on that as a matter of course. We went through quite a number of drafts for the scene, but I believe it was an episode that was truly worth the effort. The scenario was finalized, and when it came time to consider how it could then be incorporated into a storyboard, we were fortunate to receive further guidance from Sensei on how to depict the scene. I'm not sure of the correct way to word this, but I believe we were able to deliver something with an impact which screams "This is BLEACH!" beyond what was imagined in the scenario. The enthusiasm of everyone involved is particularly evident.
A: Tite Kubo
If I were to choose one person with the given course of events, I'd also have thought it would be Senjumaru who would take responsibility for turning the tide of this battle, so when I heard from the anime side that they wanted to make Senjumaru the Zero Division character to perform Bankai, I sensed the depth of understanding the anime production team had for the work the moment they made that proposal without me even saying anything. I am very grateful. It was also interesting how, in the process leading up to her Bankai, they cleverly utilized the idea that being part of the Zero Division means they're ready to die. The way the seals of the four individuals were depicted is also great.

Section 5
THE BLEACH
22. The author's involvement as "general supervisor" continues into the second cour of this work. What are their thoughts on this production style?
D: Tomohisa Taguchi
Through our interactions and output of materials in the first cour, I suppose the feeling is "this is how we're going to do things" and there's a sense that Kubo-sensei's position as a staff member has solidified as we've progressed. In other words, it's like we've gotten even closer to Kubo-sensei…! What do you think, Kubo-sensei!? 
As far as the anime side is concerned, there's a certain level of "familiarity" in a positive sense, and in addition to that, It seems like a style is emerging that encompasses a sense of pressure and a sense of purpose, and I feel like we've been able to establish a relationship where we can easily express our opinions and also share our concerns with each other. For example, when trying to animate "Getsuga Jūjishō" in a cool looking way, I asked sensei about the way Jūjishō should appear after we struggled with posing the two swords. In an anime-oriented mindset, when a character wields two swords, it tends to result in poses where the body opens up or where one sword is raised. Thinking, "that's different from the stance Ichigo from 'BLEACH' takes", we were able to create the current sequence precisely because we could consult with the author about what should be done. I received the following response: "Regarding Jūjishō, the vertical Getsuga generated from Zangetsu in the right hand is violently hit against the first Getsuga generated horizontally by Zangetsu in the left hand. At that moment, energy is infused from the vertical Getsuga into the horizontal one, forming a gigantic cross. It advances forward through the propulsive force of the vertical Getsuga. Therefore, his posture after its activation ends up in a pose where one foot is left heavily leaning inward." Taking that as a hint, we applied it to the visuals. 
We've reached a point where we are able to comprehend Kubo-sensei's deep insights better, making it even easier to reflect them in the anime, and I'm sure if we dig deeper in this regard, Kubo-sensei will guide our ideas to even greater heights! There are some instances where we gain motivation like "let's thoroughly pour our hearts and souls into creating ideas that form the groundwork for that!" On the other hand, there are also times where we make a judgment call and say "let's try to ask Kubo-sensei about this from the get-go!" I think it was the second cour where that type of communication became a great deal easier. The third cour and beyond will also be very lively, so please look forward to it! 
A: Tite Kubo
In a sense, drawing the rough draft for Senjumaru's battle scene was also a moment where I felt relief, I was able to convey everything I ever wanted to express, and I realized that it wouldn't be a hindrance to the team on the production side. The anime production team were able to make suggestions based on a thorough understanding of the original work, which motivated me as well. Director Taguchi said, "it's like we've gotten closer," but it's not even a question of closeness. After working through the first and second cours, I feel like I've become fully integrated as a member of the staff, so thank you for your continuous support!

Can we get a pining harry snippet from your slytherin au 🥺
omg YESSSS original fic: my hand's at risk (i fold)
ask me anything!
"No, no!" Harry blew his whistle and pulled his broom around to face his Chasers. "You have to block her at mid-field. If Gi--"
"Potter," Malfoy snarled. "I swear to God, if you say her name one more time--"
"If Ginny Weasley," Harry growled back impatiently, "breaks through, then that leaves Malfoy as our only defense. Which we know from last year, gives us absolutely no chance."
Draco scowled. "Appreciate the vote of confidence."
"Just trying to adequately prepare," sniped Harry. "I seem to be the only one."
Candice and Anastasia both mumbled some choice words under their breath and floated back to the other side of the pitch to begin the drill all over again. Andrew followed, but at least he had the good sense to look sheepish. Harry reminded himself to take it easy on the fourth year.
"Burke! Loughty!" Harry shouted to the two Beaters. "Let's try something else to make it interesting."
"Actually," Cam nodded to the ground as he approached. "Looks like our time's up."
Harry followed his line of sight to see a group of people in crimson robes filing out onto the pitch. He checked his watch, then swore.
"Alright," he conceded. "I guess that's it for today. We'll go again tomorrow morning at the same time."
The other six players all groaned half-heartedly about practicing on a Sunday morning, but had the foresight to finish their complaining before reaching the ground.
A few snide comments and cutting glares were tossed back and forth as the opponents passed each other to and from the pitch. The first Quidditch match of the year was only two weeks away and it was safe to say tensions were high.
"Hey, Weasley?" Malfoy drawled. "Figured out how to guard all three hoops yet?"
"That's three more than you can--" Ron shot back.
Harry shoved Draco between the shoulder blades to keep him moving, but he couldn't resist a peek out of the corner of his eye at the smallest person bringing up the rear of scarlet and gold.
She had her copper hair piled high atop her head and a playbook beneath one arm. The golden glow of morning made the freckles on her nose stand out more than usual.
To his absolute horror, she caught his eye and smirked.
"Potter," she nodded.
"Weasley," Harry clipped in response.
She pulled to a stop as he knelt down to return the snitch he'd caught earlier to it's spot in the practice chest.
"Good practice?"
Harry frowned up at her genuine tone of voice. "It was fine."
She hummed, a mischievous glint to her eye. "So, they finally invented a drill you can run that will keep you conscious during an entire match?"
Rolling his eyes, Harry straightened to his full height. He'd grown a few inches in the last six month or so, and he felt a little pang of satisfaction go through him as Ginny Weasley had to tip her head back to maintain eye contact.
Or maybe that was a pang of longing. He couldn't quite tell the difference anymore.
Harry got lost in her warm brown eyes for a moment, until she blinked and shifted her weight awkwardly.
Alarm leaked into his bloodstream as he realized she was waiting for him to reply, but for the life of him he couldn't remember what he'd been about to say.
"The...er-" Harry stammered. "One of the bludgers is acting sluggish. Probably needs to go to Madam Hooch when you're done."
"Thanks for the head's up," Ginny quirked a derisive eyebrow. "Now get off my pitch."
He snorted.
She didn't wait for him to leave, but jogged toward the middle of the stadium and hopped on her broom to lead warm ups. Harry's eyes followed her progress up towards the rest of the Gryffindor's for a beat too long.
Thankfully, no one was around to notice.

If nettles was a white girl like Alys, dumbyra fans wouldn’t say shit. Look at laena and daemon regardless of them being married in the books they hated the fact of them being together in the show and how they did there relationship was disgusting. I was really irked on how daemon and Rhaenyra had sex in the most disrespectful way like Laena was just laid to rest and she found if a way to get with her uncle!! Then disappeared for 6 years from court and act’s surprised that the hightowers and vaemond are plotting against them like YOU’VE DONE NOTHING BUT POP OUT BABIES FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS!!!!! I can’t stress how much I hate the whole Daemon loves Rhaenyra more than anything, if he loves her sooo much why did he do the following
1) steal her dead baby brother’s egg
2)called himself the “rightful heir” to the throne after she was named heir
3)called her dead brother “heir for a day”
4) left her to fight in the stepstones and ignored her for years
5) almost ruined her reputation by taking her to a brothel
6)left her alone at night in the most dangerous place in kings landing
7)left her again during her wedding where she almost got trampled
8)undermines her during the plot to take kings landing
9) ignores her calls during her labor
10) ignores her call to come back to kings landing
11) he literally chokes her when he finds out that Viserys never thought of him as heir
Like they gaslight themselves into believing that this is okay, it’s not
Now I do understand the age difference between nettles and daemon is very important she’s 17 and he’s 49 but I think that they are more healthier relationship. I feel that nettles is more patient with daemon and they have better communication, she’s not afraid to tell daemon like “hey you do realize that this is fucked up” and he grows more as a person with her. Nettles isn’t spoiled and doesn’t like to be spoiled much and daemon likes that. Rhaenyra can act like a baby sometimes and it annoys him when she gets like that.
Sorry for the big rant but I know when nettles is casted and when we see her actor she’s gonna get hate from people WHO SHIP AN UNCLE WHO GROOMED HIS FUCKING NIECE. I’m going to war for my girl Nettles.
Tumblr media
This wasn’t a rant, this was a read👏🏽 I honestly think that if Nettles were white(hell if she were actually non-Black like how they try to insist she is because they don’t want a Negro with Daemon) then a good portion of these racist stans would have jumped ship already.
Dumbnyra has always been a disaster of a ship(in the show and the books which 99% weren’t shipping this trash until said show).
There were glaring red flags from the get-go (the 1st “romantic moment” Rhaenyra is underage), but because they are self-inserting (this includes the weirdo self-haters who are fine with throwing other “WOC” under the bus to live out their Aryan obey me or I’ll nuke you fantasies) into her and can’t relate to anyone who isn’t white they are holding onto this Titanic of a ship for dear life.
I'm glad you mentioned Alys. People may hate her now, but the moment she shows up on screen and interacts with Aemond I can guarantee that most of that hate(which is mostly from Hellmann's shippers who only like their insane crackship that they pretend is canon because it’s a self insert ship) will fade away.
With Alys there, who’s also white and is Aemond’s actual love interest, Helaena won’t be needed anymore. So they’ll drop her faster than a hot cake, do a 180, say who’s Helaena, and ole girl will become the new self-insert.
That’s not going to be the case for Nettles(and yeah sadly her actress is going to get a lot of hate so prayers to her).
If you guys don’t believe us literally go pull up any fandom with a Black woman as a love interest and see the bullsh*t and excuses that are written.
Every single time the actresses get verbally attacked(they get called literal racial slurs see Candice Patton-The Flash), the showrunners do them, and their characters(Kat Graham-Vampire Diaries and Nicole Beharie-Sleepy Hollow), the fans of said characters and ships get attacked(this fandom is already starting it), and there are a million and one think pieces on how her character “doesn’t need a man” or how the ship she’s in isn’t “good for her”(all while these same people excuse actual abusive relationships like Dumbnyra).
People always say oh it isn’t about race it’s actually about xyz, but if every time you are complaining when you see a Black woman as the love interest, yeah it’s about race🤷🏽‍♀️ You guys don’t like seeing Black women in romantic relationships especially with your faves. It’s the same song and dance and now they are doing it with Nettles under the guise of “caring.”
If you ship Dumbnyra(and I’ve seen several of these shippers drawing art that’s supposed to be romantic where Rhaenyra is a literal child) and then fix your mouth to say Daemon and Nettles relationship is somehow bad for Nettles and that people promoting it want Netty to be abused (translation: I don’t want my self insert to be left for a Black girl, but I can’t come out and say that so I’ll just pretend to care about this Black girl when I’m actually cheering on for her to be axed or played by a white woman, yes I’ve seen some of these ignorant people want Nettles to be white because the Velaryons were made Black🙃).
The dynamic between Daemon and Nettles isn’t anything like Daemon and Rhaenyra. The only thing they’ve got in common is that Nettles is young and even then she’s technically an adult and she’s probably going to be aged up to be Laena’s book age in the show. The moment that happens they’ll find some new excuse(I don’t want Nettles to look like a ho knowing damn well their self insert was out their chasing after a freshly widowed man and they cheered it on) why Daemon and Nettles shouldn’t happen.
Yeah, they did have a much healthier relationship and Daemon grows from his time with her(something he never did with Rhaenyra). He grows enough to put her ahead of everyone including his wife’s rule and his own safety(which is what Nettles deserves), but we are lost in the sauce. 100% it’s protect Nettles over here 🙌🏽

Hello there, thanks for stumbling across my blog!
(Here's a lil comic I made for a school assignment)
I'm going to start putting my social energy levels in my bio... There's a lot of stuff I want to respond to but i currently dont have the energy to do so, and so if I don't respond within like a day, check my bio and see that... I always feel bad about being on tumblr when theres things people have sent me but responding to those things is a different level of interaction than reblogging a post... so yeah... Sorry to the people i havent responded to yet! I will soon <333 (writing this on low energy, sorry for the incoherence)
Who am I / Where else can you find me?
First of all, feel free to call me Eli!! I'm on the waiting list for an autism diagnosis. I am agender and aroace-spec.
I am verrryyy enthusiastic about the things I am interested in (hence the URL hehehe). And currently, those are: podcasts (theres a list at the bottom of the post), good omens, ofmd, bbc merlin, star trek!!!!, lotr, and probably more things that I am too tired to think of right now!
I am a very big fan of the oxford comma and double brackets. Semicolons are pretty cool too. And ellipses are incredible.
i love all of my mutuals dearly!! Making cookies and hot chocolate for you all <33
I try to use tone tags as much as possible!
Boundaries:
Things I am okay with sharing/doing:
My age, gender/sexuality, things about my guinea pigs!!, and most other things
Things I am not okay with sharing/doing:
The city I live in, pictures of me/anyone I know, my full name, my birthdate, my phone number/email address, meeting up with people irl, sending/receiving money/gifts, dms (<- though if we're mutuals and interacted a lot dms are fine!!)
^ this applies to everyone im not in the discord with
I will let someone know if they cross boundaries, and *really* would like other people to let me know if I cross theirs!!
DNI: people who are here to spread hate and anger. Just, stay away. I dont engage in discourse. I know DNIs dont deterr these people, but this is a demonstration of my core values :)
Updated to clarify - I do block the generic tags such as Israel and Gaza, which most of the posts are tagged with by the op, so if you forget its no big deal!!
Tags:
(At the top cause otherwise it will get lost) ALSO #tw body horror
I block quite a few tags but most notably #tw war and other ones to do with the war in israel/palestine. This is not because I don't care. I care so so so much about what is happening and I cry every time I see a post about it. It breaks my heart that such horrible things are happening. However, I really struggle with high empathy, and seeing a post about it can really affect me for a while, and I need tumblr to be a safe space away from the real world problems. If I follow you - please could you tag things to do with war. Thank you <3
A list of all the podcasts I listen to because y'know, its fun:
Fiction:
The Amelia Project
Wooden Overcoats
The Adventure Zone
Sherlock & Co
Alba Salix
Unseen
And a whole lot more that i no longer listen to either because they havent updated or they are a little too creepy (Welcome to Night Vale falls into the latter category)

10 Years of Subliminalbo
Tumblr media
Candice Swanepoel: Mindless Supermodel on Tour Annotated [ 1 ]
Originally published November 26th, 2013
Hundreds of young women were gathering at a Victoria's Secret in Pasadena [ 2 ] where Candice Swanepoel was promoting a new lingerie line, Obedience by Victoria [ 3 ]. Many only showed up to get an autograph and a picture with the supermodel, but a select few were chosen to join Candice in a private meeting after the event [ 4 ].
Once the fifteen chosen girls followed Candice into the room, each one received their very own Obedience bra which Candice ordered them to put on [ 5 ]. When all of the girls had returned from the fitting rooms, they found that Candice had stripped down into her underwear and was waiting to greet them in her own pair of Obedience by Victoria lingerie. Then she began her demonstration. The girls listened intently to Candice's every word as she went over the usual stuff: how the bra gave enough lift to create the illusion of larger breasts, but didn't sacrifice the comfort that every bra needs [ 6 ]. How all the designs, for example her's with black and white polka-dots [ 7 ], were cute and flirty but sexy and mature all at once. And how the bra kept a woman mindless, blank, submissive [ 8 ].
"Each bra comes with its own unique identification card [ 9 ]," Candice spoke promptly, professionally, as if she were reading from a script [ 10 ]. "And the holder of that id card controls the wearer of the bra. As long as I'm wearing Obedience by Victoria, I have no control of my own. However, since I have your cards, I do have control over all of you. Does that make sense? [ 11 ]"
"Yes, Mistress Candice," the girls replied [ 12 ].
"Good," Candice smiled as she looked upon an audience of blank faces. "The bra was assembled in America with materials produced in Pakistan [ 13 ]. Utilizing research that is only legal in Yugoslavia [ 14 ], Victoria's Secret has created a bra that is truly a first of its kind, and a look into the future of the industry. Please refrain from wearing Obedience by Victoria for more than four hours; prolonged use may cause memory loss, catatonia, loss of motor control, and irregular increase in sex drive. If you experience any of these symptoms, remove the bra immediately and consult a physician for you could be experiencing early signs of mind control poisoning. Ask your doctor before use [ 15 ].
"Now, my girls, [ 16 ]" Candice took a breath.
"Yes, Mistress Candice?"
"You're all going to go home, and you're going to find another girl. It could be your sister, your friend, your mother, your cousin, it doesn't matter. You're going to find another girl and you're going to make sure she gets a bra just like yours [ 17 ]."
"Yes, Mistress Candice. We will obey."
"Good. We want every woman in America to experience Obedience by Victoria with us."
"Yes, Mistress Candice. They will submit."
Mindless, the women left the mall and headed home, all thinking about their mission [ 18 ].
Candice boarded the fastest plane out of LA, en route to Milwaukee [ 19 ] where the next Victoria's Secret on the tour was located. On the plane she received a call. "Yes," she spoke quietly into the receiver. "I fitted them all with the bras...Yes, the effect was instantaneous...Of course I'm still wearing mine...Yes, I do nothing but think of you when I'm wearing it...Yes, I will do anything...Yes...Anything for you, Master. [ 20 ]"
[ 1 ]. Mindless Supermodel Model on Tour created a lot of problems for me. It was originally meant to be a series of shorts where we see Candice in different little mind control vignettes, but the idea of a mind controlling lingerie brand was too broad to just bury in a random one shot, so I kept writing about it. I pretty quickly moved to writing fictional characters after this short, but Obedience by Victoria remained an important bit of lore for several years until I just said fuck it and swapped out Victoria's Secret for Fleur-de-lis, creating ersatz versions of the Victoria's Secret models that I'd previously written about. You can read a much, much better version of this story here as Obedience By Fleur #1.
[ 2 ]. Before Romero, I liked to set these stories in completely random cities that I've never been to.
[ 3 ]. Fun with brand name parodies. I thought Obedience By Victoria was so clever for some reason.
[ 4 ]. In my "just writing a quick caption to establish context for the manip" era, these stories start so abruptly. It feels really weird to just jump into something without any groundwork.
[ 5 ]. They aren't even mind controlled yet lmao
[ 6 ]. Incredibly painful to read a 19 year old kid write about women's underwear like he knows what he's talking about.
[ 7 ]. I used to go out of my way to place the story in the manip somehow, but this proved incredibly limiting. At some point I stopped letting the manips tell the stories and today I rarely reference imagery from the manips.
[ 8 ]. This is supposed to be a "murder, arson, jaywalking" joke, but the bit doesn't land because I spread it out over three long sentences instead of one list.
[ 9 ]. Huh
[ 10 ]. Because she's under mind control, you see. Totally unreasonable to suspect that a person pitching a new product for their company would be reading from a script.
[ 11 ]. Weirdly insecure for a mindless drone.
[ 12 ]. Nitpicking myself here but I don't think "replied" is the word choice I would use for fifteen mind controlled girls speaking in unison today.
[ 13 ]. I wonder if this was researched or if I just picked completely random countries. I'm guessing the latter.
[ 14 ]. Oof, most of the jokes in my early stuff just don't land. I've always been better at the melodrama.
[ 15 ]. Pretty good bit.
[ 16 ]. I would also probably not have her say "my girls" if I were writing this today. Just reads weird to me.
[ 17 ]. Not the first instance of serial recruitment in my writing at this point (the sequel to that Fleur-de-lis chapter that I posted the other night has it), but the first that I like.
[ 18 ]. Are they mindless or are they thinking? Just a weird transition paragraph that exists to remind the reader one more time that there's mind control in this story.
[ 19 ]. What even is this tour? Surely there are Victoria's Secrets between Pasadena and Milwaukee lmao
[ 20 ]. This is a Metal Gear Solid reference and it's fucking stupid

It's weird to see her fellow female friends/colleagues working, and then there's crickets when it comes to her. I had to check to see if I was still following her on IG since she doesn't pop up on my feed anymore due to "inactivity."
It’s amazing to see what Anna, Azie, Javicia, Meagan and even Vanessa are doing now that their shows are done but it’s disheartening that Candice isn’t doing anything because she could and should be making the same type of moves.

what do you think about the baby plotlines? about hope and the twins? do you think they ruined any chance of klaroline being together? or do you think kc could have been together for real and had a good relationship if the babies didn't exist?
This might seem surprising since I have written over a million words of baby fic (although I will argue that it's not a baby fic, it's a fic that contains a baby, which is very different 😌), but I hate the baby plot. I'm a clown. 🤡
It's not about Hope or the twins in particular, nothing against them, I just think that suddenly including magical babies in a supernatural story about vampires is just about the stupidest thing you can do. Vampires are not supposed to have babies, period. I remember watching the backdoor pilot episode of The Originals not having the slightest clue what to expect because I wasn't in fandom back then, or even following anything about TVD, just watched the episodes as they came out, and the moment they revealed The Originals' move to New Orleans was about a baby, I turned off my TV. Whoever thought that giving Klaus A BABY was the best thing they could do for him, is an idiot that should've been fired on spot.
If they wanted to explore the whole father-child situation, drawing from Klaus' immense well of daddy issues, they could've used Marcel. It would've been so much more powerful and so much more interesting. The thought that Klaus, out of all the Originals, would just decide to embrace fatherhood after getting a one-night stand he didn't even like accidentally pregnant makes NO SENSE AT ALL. This is the man who stabbed his siblings and carried them around in coffins as a love language. And people want me to believe that this violence-first, emotionally constipated hybrid would want to raise a child. Sure.
As for Caroline's pregnancy - I guess once you have established that Klaus could make magical babies, then anything was possible. The excuse they used that Candice was pregnant was so dumb though. So many movies and shows have been shot while the actresses were heavily pregnant, but their characters weren't. Catherine Zeta Jones was six or seven months pregnant in Chicago. Everyone in Grey's Anatomy had babies. Ellen Pompeo had three onscreen babies but none of them were written to match her real life pregnancies. In fact, Candice had to wear a prosthetic belly because she wasn't pregnant ENOUGH. So stupid.
HAVING SAID THAT. I don't think the babies were the reason why Klaroline didn't happen. At the end of the day, it wouldn't have been something that would've kept them apart if the writers had wanted to go there. If anything, babies could've brought them closer. I mean, Klaus should've been completely inept when it comes to taking care of another human being who's entirely dependent upon him. Caroline, as a carer at heart, could've seamlessly fit into the narrative. And especially after they gave her babies as well, they could've easily connected through their snowflake kids.
In fact, my personal headcanon (somewhat backed by real canon) is that they did. Klaus gave her money for her school, and while I don't think he did it so he could send Hope there later on as Legacies tried to make us believe, I do think the reason he ended up allowing Hope to attend the school was BECAUSE Caroline was there. He trusted her with his daughter, in a way he probably wouldn't have trusted anyone else, particularly because he was absent. He needed to know she would be safe and in good hands, and that was definitely not because of Alaric. And I also think they kept in touch during all those years where Hope went to school there and he went on a murder bend around Europe. Hayley couldn't get a hold of him, but Rebekah IMMEDIATELY knew who she could reach out to to find him. If Caroline hadn't seen or spoken to him in 15 years, that would make no sense. The way Klaus is all 'Trying not to flatter myself that you're here on a sudden whim to see me' implies more intimacy than two people who hadn't spoken in over a decade would've had. They were definitely in touch. How much touching was involved is up to your imagination. :)
One thing I wish Legacies had explored was Caroline's relationship with Hope. They obviously had one, we were just never shown it, which is sad, because there were so many interesting layers that could've been explored. It's also in my personal headcanon that Lizzie would've been fascinated with Klaus had him and Caroline ever had a chance to be together and he got to hang around her kids as well, and the irony that her middle name is Jenna is just delicious (Klaus wouldn't have felt the slightest bit of remorse). It would've given Alaric so much grief.
In conclusion, Klaroline could've been together with or without the babies. They weren't what was standing between them. Stupid writing was.

Rolling Up the Partition III: School Daze (1988) Viewing Response
In Spike Lee's 1988 film, School Daze, we see tensions over Apartheid in South Africa rise between the students at Mission College, an HBCU. The film follows Dap, and his darker-skinned friends as they "battle" against the lighter-skinned men of the Gamma Phi Gamma fraternity. Through the clever usage of mise-en-scène, the film displays a recurring theme of "stand-off" scenes (shown below). These shots are integral parts of the film as they communicate the reality of division between black students in the post-civil rights scene. These scenes are meant to represent the aspects of life which separate the student body, the main one addressed in the film being class/privilege in relation to skin color.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In Candice M. Jenkins’s essay, “New Bourgeoisie, Old Bodies: Performing Post-Civil Rights Black Privilege in Tar Baby and School Daze”, she discusses the growing disparity in black communities due to the rise of the black bourgeoise. In the film, this black bourgeoisie is portrayed as having fairer skin, blue/green eyes, and straightened hair. The reasoning behind this being that "Those bodies that most visibly display marks of Caucasian ancestry [...] have a special claim upon intraracial class privilege" (Jenkins, 621). However, this narrative is challenged, quite effectively I think, in one particular scene where Dap and his friends leave campus to get KFC. There they come across a group of older black men, the "leader" being a man named Leeds who proceeds to say, "Naw, I bet y'all do think y'all white." This accusation is ironic as Dap and his friends consider themselves to be in touch with their black heritage, and detest their fellow "wannabe" classmates, as in they "want" to be white. This scene's effectiveness is found in the fact that it takes place off campus, and that it serves as a reminder to Dap and his friends of their own privilege to be attending college in the first place. This scene furthers the reality of how nuanced black identity was/is, and how there is always going to be a differing in opinion when it comes to what it is to be black.
Tumblr media
I thought the final scene of the film came full circle, while also including the viewers in a way as well. As we know, there are many instances when two groups have a "stand-off", and this is acknowledged in the final scene when the two male leads (Dap and Julian) look to the camera together instead of at one another in opposition. To me, this scene was very powerful in conveying the reality that, at the end of the day, they all share in their identity even if their interpretations of that identity differ.

I’m in a petty mood so :P
if Bonnie wasn’t the most disrespected character of tvd then maybe…idk there wouldn’t be videos, books, articles online that has to thoroughly explain this topic repeatedly with detailed evidence. Then you fans that claim Bonnie didn’t suffer the way other characters did or it wasn’t as bad only have that argument because you let your hatred for Bonnie cloud anything else. Pull up a video that explains how badly Caroline and Elena was treated that lines up with Bonnie’s. Like I said before NOBODY has ever said Elena and Caroline didn’t struggle that would be false but their struggles will never align with how the MAIN black woman was treated for 8 years.
Yall be upset over characters like Katherine, Vicki, Caroline, Elena etc etc. when Julie never went on Twitter tangents about her disdain for that character or actress , never bashed or nitpicked at those fanbases. Caroline Dries never intentionally talked over Candice, or Nina in interviews because they had ideas. Candice was so loudly loved that not only was her character placed with nearly every male, but they written in her pregnancy for Caroline connecting her to 2 more shows. Nina got to do more scenes as Katherine.
There’s plenty of other things but Kat could give yall losers a PowerPoint presentation detailing about how she was sidelined from Bonnie’s sexuality, repeatedly making remarks about how often Bonnie’s sacrificed and gets nothing, the relationships, and even her wardrobe. On top of continuously mentioning how she felt like they didn’t want her there. She’s even said directly she thinks there wouldn’t have been problems had she been white. I mean look at the white witches… The series will never let us forget how beautiful they found the other women yet NEVER gave Bonnie those compliments and moments to just be beautiful in a gown. Mystic Falls had a dance every damn moment yet how many of those was Bonnie enjoying herself? She couldn’t even win prom queen without that being taken from her. “She’s always had good friends…” what? The friends that didn’t notice she was dead for months and only wanted her back because they needed her magic? The friends that don’t check up on her at all period until they want her magic? “Her family loves her” oh you mean the Grams they referred to as an alcoholic in s1? The father who worked soo much but clearly never wanted to stay. You mean Abby the woman that loved Elena and herself more than she loved Bonnie? Wait, no no you mean Lucy the woman who said she’d see Bonnie again and dies offscreen? Or all of the lovely WOC we never get to see…
Yall really be talking out your ass. The fans that claim “people make it so hard to love all three!” because of these metas ONLY have these issues when Bonnie fans want to speak and cater towards Bonnie first. Dont follow Bonnie fans if you’re going to get mad everytime they speak about Bonnie. I don’t fucking get that at all. WHY go out your way to follow someone and you know you don’t want to read anything they have to say. Not smart but whatever.

Mr Evershed x Student!reader - never a dull day
Tumblr media
Hey, could u do mr evershed x student reader who has a fainting condition, or just randomly passes out one day? Xx - Anon💜
Sitting on the floor, you had your back against Sam as she spoke to Nas, Hayley and Razia.
“(Y/N)?” Hayley asked.
They all turned to you, and Sam laughed a little, putting an arm around you, she held your head against her shoulder.
“Will they wake up before lunch ends?” Nas asked.
“If not I guess we’ll have to drag them there.” Razia snickered.
They rolled their eyes at her and looked back at you and looked up and down the hallways.
There were a few students there, but since they knew you they didn’t think twice about what was going on.
“Nasreen could we have a chat?”
Mrs Carter walked over and she down at you, giving a small sigh.
“Again?”
“You know it’s a daily thing miss.” Sam chuckled.
Mrs Carter nodded her head, and pulled out some hall passes from her pocket.
“I supposed to hand these to you both this morning.”
She handed them over to Sam and everyone went their own ways when the bell went, and Sam stayed in the hallway with you.
She didn’t want to move you, so instead she stayed there and when you came to again you both sat there for a few minutes before heading to class.
The following day, you were sat in English, whispering to Sam and Candice, a grin on your face.
“You didn’t do the homework?” Candice asked.
“Sorry, I thought it was food and ate it. No I didn’t do it!” You whisper yelled.
“You could just pass out, problem solved.” Sam snickered.
“Ouch, damn okay Sam.” You huffed.
She laughed and nudged your shoulder.
“Come on I’m joking!”
You tried your best to hold in a snicker as you watched her apologise.
“Right you three, you’re supposed to be doing work.”
Mr Evershed came over and stood in front of the table, arms crossed as he looked at the three of you.
You gave a sheepish grin and shrugged a little.
“I kinda.. mayhaps, not know what I’m doing sir…?” You asked.
“Are you trying to ask me if you don’t know what you’re doing or tell me (Y/N)?” He laughed.
“Tell you sorry sir.”
You grinned a little and he chuckled, taking a from another table he pulled it up to your table and you listened to what he was explaining.
Sam and Candice got on with their work, and focused on the teacher.
He explained everything carefully, and took your book so he could write a few examples down for you but you were no longer paying attention.
Your head started to drop a little, and you fought with everything you had not to faint there and then.
“Sam!” Candice whispered.
Sam whipped her head to you just in time to watch your pass out.
Shoving her chair back, she stood behind you, catching you before you hit the floor, but with your weight suddenly dropped into her, she fell to the floor.
“(Y/N)! Sam!”
“Wait hold on!”
One of the boys stood up and walked over, lifting your feet from the chair he set them on the floor and went back to his seat.
Sam sat up, placing your head on her bag as she leant forward to move your chair out the way.
“Are you alright?” Mr Evershed asked Sam.
“Yeah, yeah I’m fine. (Y/N)s fine too, it’s normal.”
“Normal?”
He knelt down, placing a hand on your shoulder he gently shook it but you didn’t stir.
“Sir don’t wake them up! You have to let them wake up by themselves!” Candice panicked.
He looked at her then looked back at you.
“Sam can you get someone, anyone.”
“Why they’re just gonna say the same thing.”
“Please.”
Mr Evershed looked at his watched and stood up.
“It’s nearly lunch anyway, all of you go on, get to lunch.”
The students shrugged, no one was going to complain about an early lunch break so they all left aside from Candice who stood there.
Mr Evershed crouched down again, unsure what to do in this situation.
“I see you’ve met our resident fainter.” Mrs Carter laughed.
“Does everyone know?” He asked.
She walked over and sat down in a chair, telling Sam and Candice they could go and enjoy their early lunch and that the two teachers would care for you.
Once the students were gone, Mrs Carter looked down at you.
“It started just after they joined the school, it’s a medical condition, god knows I’ll never remember what it’s called. It’s not life threatening though, they just faint.”
“Mandy they nearly fell off their chair.” He whispered.
“They’ve fallen of chairs before, tables, tripped other students. Don’t panic Martin, they’ll wake up in no time.” She said.
She looked as the teacher frowned, looking down at you.
“Just make sure they don’t sit up or stand up straight away, give it some time, and walk to them canteen or wherever it is they want to go, they’ll be a it out of it.”
With that, Mrs Carter left and Mr Evershed sighed, sitting down next to you as he looked at you.
How he had never seen you faint before was beyond him, did it happen randomly? At certain times? Did you or anyone know it was coming on?
He had a lot of questions, and he needed the answers to them if he was going to be keeping a close eye on you.
After a few minutes you opened your eyes, and he tapped your shoulder.
“You alright?” He asked.
You looked at him and blinked.
You went to sit up and he stopped you, shaking his head.
“How’d I get in the floor?”
He cracked a small smile at the questions.
“Well apparently my lesson is so boring you just passed out, fell right into Sam and one of the boys helped put you on the floor. You’re alright?” He asked again.
“Yeah.. yeah I’m good.”
He nodded and stood up, crouching in front of you he held his hands out to you and you let him pull you into a sitting position.
“Right stay there for a couple of minutes.”
“Where is everyone?”
“Lunch.” He replied.
You nodded and stayed there while Mr Evershed cleared up the classroom and when he was done he walked back over.
“Ready?”
“Yes sir.”
He held his hands out again, and he pulled you up, grabbing your bag he handed it to you and gestured to the door, and you slowly walked over.
In the hallway, he looked around before looking at you.
“Where we going?” He asked.
“Uhm… canteen?”
He nodded and let you lead the way, walking behind you to make sure if you fell or anything he could catch you.
“So, you just faint?” He asked.
“Yeah, medical condition. Faint once a day.”
“Do you know you’re going to faint?”
You flicked your gaze up to him.
“Sometimes, sometimes I just happens too quickly. My friends know when I’m going to faint though.”
You tripped a couple of steps and he caught you, steadying you on your feet before he let go so you could carry on walking.
You guys carried on talking until he lead you to the table where your friends were and he left.
He noticed after that how you would faint daily, sometimes it would be in his class, sometimes he’d just be getting things done or going somewhere and he’d walk past you on the floor with your friends.
He still worried, but soon realised there wasn’t much he could to help aside from being there.
This time he was walking down the hallways, heading to a meet with the trust when he stumbled across you sprawled over the chairs in reception.
Ken and a few other trust members were stood looking at you.
“Students sleeping? Setting a great example here.” Mrs Carp scoffed.
“They’re not asleep and you know it Sue.”
He walked over and sat on the free chair next to your head and looked up at them.
“Well, you wanted a meeting, let’s have one.” He said.
“Here? Next to a sleeping student?” Ken asked confused.
Ken went to shake your shoulder, but he was stopped by Mr Evershed swatting his hand away.
“(Y/N) has a medical condition, they faint. They’re not sleeping.”
The others looked among themselves before they agreed to hold the meeting in reception, seeing that the acting head teacher wasn’t going to move.
They made it quick and brief, and said they’d come back a different day for a more in depth one and they left, and Mr Evershed scrolled through his phone.
“Smashed it sir…” you mumbled.
He looked down at you and smiled.
“You think?”
“Yup, shut them straight down.”
Mr Evershed laughed and put his phone away, turning to look down at you.
“So, why’re you fainting in my reception?” He chuckled.
You grinned a little and shrugged.
“Thought I’d give visitors a scare?”
He laughed and stood up, helping you sit properly in the chair and leant back on the reception desk.
“What’re we going to do with you? Huh?” He smiled.
You gave a grin and he laughed a little bit, shaking his head at you.
It certainly made for an interested day to say the least

RAW 30/10/23
A Build To Crown Jewel.
Tumblr media
This was the last Raw before Crown Jewel, and it was a decent episode. The Judgement Day’s, Rhea Ripley, Dominik Mysterio and JD McDonagh open the show as Rhea recaps a few things before Sami Zayn hits the ring and vows he will put a stop to the stable. Of course the numbers are against Zayn and he gets backup from Ricochet. The funny because Sami doesn’t stick around to even the odds as Ricochet has his match with Dom. The matches itself was good. Dom picked up the win thanks to a distraction. Dirty Dom used the ropes to his advantage for the pin, but the announcers never picked up on it.
The Alpha Academy had a pretty great match with The Creed Brothers. This is my first time seeing this tag team and I was impressed with the fast and technical style. The Creed Brothers got the upset victory with the Brutus Ball.
I’m generally not interested in The Miz. I haven’t seen him evolve over the past few years, and his character never gripped me. But the segment with Gunther showed a vulnerable side to The Miz that I believe is needed. Next week, Miz will have a number one contender’s match with Bronson Reed, Ricochet and Ivar. I think Miz needs to lose or lose against Gunther, causing Miz to go down a down spiral where he has to overcome his doubts. To me, that's a story I can get behind.
Sometimes angles don’t work, and this seems to be the case here as Candice LeRae lost to Xia Li via KO. LeRae received a kick to the head. The angle was awkward because I wasn’t sure if this was a work or shoot. It turns out it was a work, but I wasn’t that into it. Li would show back up to tease a match with Becky Lynch.
Things picked up with a video package from Drew McIntyre. This package really emphasized Drew’s story, his motivation and what the World Heavyweight Championship means to him. I would like to see a heel Drew as champion. The Scottish Warrior has yet to resign with WWE, so we don’t even know if McIntyre will be around this time next year. Seth Rollins gave a good reason why he doesn’t sympathise with Drew. Seth said we all suffered due to the pandemic, some more than others. The conviction between both men is there. Rollins would follow put with a decent TV match against JD.
As far as costumes go, I think Chelsea Green and Piper Niven win with their Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart costumes. The Trick or Street Fight was what it was. I’m just not a fan of this level of silliness, but the costumes were worth it.
The main event also wasn't worth much. Sami and Priest didn't go on for long, and before you know it everybody was getting involved. This led to a DQ. The highlight was Cody Rhodes delivering a cross rhodes on JD onto the announce table.
I liked the stories that were told, but the matches as whole were just average as a total.
