Javi Gutierrez x Male! Reader

Disclaimer: this is my first time writing in YEARS so apologies if its not up to great standard or seems rushed trying to get back into writing :)

Warnings: Nick cage (deserves his own warning), established relationship, short fic (fluff i guess??? Can't really define it), reader referred to as Y/n.

Introductions

You and Javi have been dating for a few years now and everything has been great, hes opened up to you about him being a Nick Cage fanboy and showed you his collection of items from movies he's starred in. You originally thought it was quite odd but it became just another quirk you love about him.

Though, when you heard Nickolas Cage was coming to stay with you and your boyfriend you were baffled to say the least, you had questions. How did Javi get THE Nickolas Cage to come HERE? How much money did he pay his agent? Is he going to freak out as soon as he sees Nickolas Cage? All these thoughts were spiralling through your head as you worried for your boyfriends dignity.

"mi amor? Are you alright you've gone quiet." your boyfriend said snapping you out of your trance. "Yes love, I'm okay but i do have some questions. How on earth did you get Nick Cage to agree to come here? Also... Why?" you asked, you needed some answers. "well i just offered to pay him to come here, said it was for my birthday!"

You stared at Javi still in a state of confusion . "So you paid Nick Cage to come here for your birthday? That's all?" he looked down and blushed. "well i also wrote a script... I wanted him to read it and tell me what he thinks." you couldn't help but smile at your boyfriends bashfulness. "well I'll be by your side, i bet he'll love it." you said cupping his face and kissing his forehead.

It was the next day when Nickolas Cage arrived at you and your boyfriend's shared home, that morning you stood at the dock with Javi soothing his nerves and straightening his baby blue suit reminding him he looked incredible. Then as they pulled up to the dock you greeted them, taking Mr Cages bags.

"uhm Mr Cage this is Y/n and y/n this is Nickolas Cage, as you know." he smiled widely obviously very much enjoying the company of his favourite actor.

"hello it's a pleasure to meet you Mr Cage." you greeted him sticking out your hand, which he shook.

"hey nice to meet you, so whats the deal here you a gardener, butler or what?" he asked you without any hesitation, to which you replied with a baffled look. You were shocked to say the least.

"Mr Cage y/n is my boyfriend." Javi finally said breaking the silence, only to lead to another awkward silence. You could cut the atmosphere with a knife.

"I'll take your bags in Mr Cage" you say still utterly shocked at his rude, degrading question. You grabbed his bags and almost stormed off up to your home, you knew he didn't have a clue about your relationship with Javi but to ask such a question without hesitation? You set his bags down in the guest room as you reminded yourself of how everyone says to 'never meet your heros'.

You were really worried for Javi.

-------------------------------------

A/n: thankyou for reading, again sorry if it's not up to standard I haven't written anything in so long so i thought I'd just try write a short fic to try get back into the flow.

Not sure if this has been asked, but if so then you're free to ignore this message. I was wondering if you could articulate why you like Aemond Targaryen as opposed to Daemon Targaryen. The latter seems to have more prominence in the story than the other.

I'm gonna go off the show, since that's what I'm currently more invested in when it comes to Dance stuff (I read all of F&B but the parts I reread the most are always about the Conquerors, as I love them).

So, part of it is that, quite simply, Daemon's a misogynistic ass and Aemond, as far as has been portrayed, isn't. I don't care for Daemon trying to groom his fourteen year old niece, I don't care for Daemon calling his wife misogynistic slurs when she didn't do anything except be married to him, I certainly don't care for him bashing her head in with a rock and getting away with it, I don't care for him trying to ruin Rhaenyra's reputation, I don't care for him then literally leaving her half naked in a brothel in a city notorious for being dangerous (she could have been raped, she could have been killed, the fact that she got back to the Red Keep without a scratch is a miracle), I don't care for him calling Alicent a whore because his half-rotting brother finally croaked, I don't care for his neglect of his children by Laena and even Laena herself (and I don't care for it in metaverse either, I really liked Daemon and Laena's book relationship and I hate how they screwed that AND how it's yet another example of how poorly the Velaryons, the only prominent characters of color, are being handled by the writers), and I definitely won't care for when he orchestrates Blood and Cheese to go after women who had fuck all to do with what happened to Lucerys's boring ass. He's a dick, which already isn't gonna endear me to him, and he's a sexist dick at that, and I don't like it.

Getting a bit deeper into it, my dislike of Daemon also comes from the fact that there's just nothing there. I've complained about this before, but everything that's actually interesting about Daemon seems to come primarily from stuff admitted about him after the fact or from Matt Smith's own acting choices beyond the script. In the actual writing of his character, he's an asshole and he wants to be king and he has a sexual obsession with his niece who he's known since she was a baby; that's it. It's left to the audience to then lean into Matt Smith's choices for the character, extrapolate what we can from creator interviews and some pretty heavy subtext, and then try to craft something ourselves. And even canon events about Daemon that I could get invested in, like his relationship with Nettles (problematic? yes, but it still tickles my fancy because there's a Lot there), just hasn't happened yet and isn't enough to get me pre-invested.

That's not the case with Aemond. The stuff about Aemond I enjoy and that endear me to him as a character, like his struggles with bullying, his bond with Vhagar, his contentious but ultimately loyal relationship with Aegon, his love for his mother, his internal issues surrounding justice denied and the need for retribution, even just his basic characterization in the four episodes we've seen him in, those are in the script. Those are integral parts of his character, that are present and visible and impactful to other characters and the story at large in the broader narrative. There is actual substance to Aemond as a character in a way there just isn't as Daemon. And even Daemon is going to be more "prominent" due to his connection to Rhaenyra, the storyline at the ready for Aemond is FAR more interesting than Daemon's. Daemon in season two is going to orchestrate the worst thing that happens in the Dance and then bounce around Westeros doing God knows what, the only thing I'm looking forward to from him are any interactions with Alys Rivers, but because I'm excited for her, not him. Aemond, on the other hand, has a lot of good set up. Because of his actions, he created an accident that he tried to avoid that has had profound repercussions on his family, and is tied to a horrible act that is going to affect the people closest to him. How is he going to deal with his emotions regarding his own culpability? How much hate and blame is he going to place on Daemon? On Rhaenyra? How will this impact his relationships with the people affected, his mother and his sister and his brother? How is this going to duel with his feelings of superiority, especially once he becomes Aegon's regent? What's gonna motivate him to take the regency but also never allow himself to be called king and remain steadfast for his brother? Is he going to enjoy it or not? We seem to be getting more stuff with him and Criston, how's that gonna be affected by Blood and Cheese and their subsequent military campaign together?

Like, see? There's so much more richness available for Aemond's character, because there's so much more to Aemond's character than Daemon's. Daemon may be more prominent, yes, but he's incredibly shallow on a writing level, and combined with the fact that he's mostly a shitty person, he becomes something I dislike (and I love characters who are shitty people, my favorite character in The Magnus Archives is Peter Lukas and I constantly blab about how I want his cruel sadism to be given more attention by the fandom). So prominence doesn't really factor into it for me, because there's just too much working against Daemon beyond that, and conversely, too much in Aemond's favor.

#personal #answered #anonymous #anti daemon targaryen #the only reason daemon isn't on a writing level that we see with characters like corlys and rhaenys #(who were both bungled spectacularly my god)#is that we see more of him since he's in almost all the episodes of the show in some form #so at least he's got a minor degree of consistency

I'm working on a zine with @molomoot called Ritual Magic for Besties! Ritual Magic for Besties is a tabletop roleplaying game for two-to-six players, using a deck of tarot cards. You play a group of magic users, in an urban fantasy setting, gathering together to cast a ritual spell.

Ritual magic relies on the connections between the gathered group, a de-facto coven. In play you build stacks of cards and establish details of your connections as well as how the in-progress ritual is developing.

I've written the zine and will do the layout and Mol'll illustrate it (they're a really great artist).

Here's a preview of the zine, the cold open setting the mood and tone:

Eris knuckles knock on the door a few times, starting as a simple repetition before they turn the knocking into a jaunty tune. Gale opens the door, hair still wet and towel draped over her shoulders.

“Am I…early?” Eris asks, in disbelief.

“Ha, no. I just gambled on you being late. Still you’re the first to arrive.”

“How did I beat KC here? They live here.”

“They’re doing a snack run on their way home from work.” Gale offers an explanation and leads Eris inside.

Gale and KC’s flat is cramped, but distinctly decorated. Gale’s sketches decorate the walls, along with a whiteboard she got while studying. KC has an assortment of tour posters covering their room.

“Soooo…” Eris drags out the phrase, hoping Gale will pick it up for them.

“So?” Gale leaves a space, refusing to offer Eris a graceful escape from awkward.

“So, about tonight.”

“Yes?”

“Errrr-”

“You don’t know what we’re doing or why, do you?” Gale puts Eris out of their misery, with only slight smugness.

Eris lets out a sigh of release as they crash on Gale and KC’s sofa. “I know it’s for Ginger.” Eris shrugs and offers a bashful smile. “And I knew I was on board whatever so I kinda spaced on the explanation.” Gale begins making some tea and rolls her eyes and her guest.

“She has a job interview tomorrow.” Gale finally explains.

“Oh, we cursing the opposition?”

“No, Christ, don’t be absurd.”

“I didn’t say I wanted to, I asked if that’s what we were doing, chill out!”

“Luck! She wants some luck.”

“Oh.” Eris replies, sounded lightly deflated.

“Dissapointed?”

“No, I just figured, I dunno, a knowledge enchantment or something?”

“She doesn’t want to feel like she’s cheating, c’mon, it’s Ginger. And wishing her luck, even if it’s a very powerful wish, isn’t cheating.”

Gale hands a cup of tea to Eris, who immediately takes a sip and let’s out a yelp at their burnt tongue. Gale sighs, having expected this if she thinks about it for a second.

“You, uh, sure you should be in on this? We could it with three.” Gale broaches a subject she’d been dancing around.

“I’m not as foolish as I like.”

“I don’t think you’re a fool.”

“Oh, you absolutely do, but you’re trying not to care about that so it’s fine.”

“That’s not what I meant.” Gale sounds sterner now.

“Well, what did you mean?” Eris asks, some nervousness creeping into their voice.

“Ginger. You’re…” Gale pauses, uncomfortable having to broach this. “Your unconfessed crush on her.”

“It’s not…like that. Not exactly.”

“Hm. Think what you want, but you’re gonna be holding back. Sure that’s a good move?”

“Luck’s simple, and I… I just wanna help. Because I care about her and she asked me for help and take that smug look off your face or I’ll knock it off.”

“Never.” Gale smiles, an earnest smile.

The two friends laugh, then rest in comfortable silence. Eris takes another sip of tea, still too hot.

(I've done cold opens like this before. Fear the Taste of Blood starts with a script extract of a horror movie, the kind that inspired the game. Wild Duelist has a narration covering some history, vibes and themes. I think I'm drawn to it when the description of the game itself calls for a less "flavourful" summary.)

Audacity for Debian-based Linux

So, some time around 2020/2021, Audacity for Linux from the repositories of Debian-based distros (including Ubuntu, Mint, etc.) no longer had access to high quality stretch (change tempo, change pitch, shifting slider). This appears to be due to a combination of Debian no longer updating Audacity at all past 2.4.2 (as Audacity's new owners from 3.0.0 on have had...issues, to put it lightly), but also the fact that 2.4.2 specifically was requiring a version of the SBSMS library past what Debian had. It's still the case that the apt version of Audacity on Linux Mint still lacks the high quality stretch functions.

The workaround for this is to compile from source. HOWEVER. Be apprised that if you specifically go for version 2.4.2, there is still a bug around SBSMS, which causes Audacity to crash when attempting high quality stretching. Apparently, if you go for versions afterwards (3.0+, new Audacity owners), or the version before (2.3.3), you will not run into this issue.

I am stubborn, so I have verified that I can now open Audacity 2.4.2 and do a high quality pitch change without crashing. Here are the solution options. Know that both are still compiling from source.

Option 1: Do it manually command by command on the terminal

You will, however, notice that the important download link for the patch is broken. You must get it from here.

Note that you should preface all of the commands listed in that post with "sudo", or they will likely throw an error. (Or do whatever you need to for terminal to continuously recognize root access.) In addition, note that the "pre-installation test" section is not optional. Audacity will not run if the "Portable Settings" folder is not created, and furthermore, the "Portable Settings" folder and all containing files need to have write permissions enabled to the relevant non-root group/owner.

Whether you installed manually or used the script, you will need to go to "/usr/local/share/audacity/audacity-minsrc-2.4.2/build/bin/Release" to launch Audacity. In the file explorer window, you can click the button to the left of the magnifying glass to switch to text input where you can copy and paste the above path. Or, from /home, go up one level, and then navigate through manually.

Change the launcher's icon and add it to the start menu/desktop, per your specific distro and desktop environment.

Option 2: Modify and run a bash script

I found a helpful Youtube video stepping through the process, before they link to a bash script automating the whole thing. However, the script does not include the 2.4.2 patch. There are also a few modifications that need to be done to the script.

Modifications to make (right click the .sh file, open with, pick some text editor):

Line 35: change the dl_directory to match your own system. (Specifically, you probably need to replace "piuser" with your own account name.)

This change also needs be done on lines 115, 116, and 120 (or replace the hard coded parts with "${DL_DIRECTORY}").

Line 77 (optional): add "patch" as a dependent package to check. Like Python, it's mostly likely already installed, so you could leave this commented out.

Lines 139-142: Not a modification, but a note that I didn't end up using this (left it commented out), so I did have to download the 2.4.2 source code from fosshub manually and put it in the location specified by dl_directory. I also put the patch there. If you do want to try to automate the download, you'll not only have to add another line to also download the patch file, but both the source code for 2.4.2 and the patch have hyphens in their urls, so you need to either add backslashes to escape them, or enclose the entire url in quotation marks. But I also can't guarantee that either of those things will work, since I ended up doing the downloads manually.

Line 150: Per the manual installation above, the patch needs to be applied before the build. Add this code block at line 150 (after the script checks to see if the "Build" folder exists):

#SBSMS patch required for 2.4.2 if [ -f "${DL_DIRECTORY}/changepitch.patch" ]; then sudo cp "${DL_DIRECTORY}/changepitch.patch" "${DIRECTORY}/${VERSION}" fi sudo patch -p 1 < changepitch.patch

That's it for changing the script. Save it, close out of the text editor. (If you decided not to try letting the script do the downloads, then make sure you download the source code and the patch and put them in the dl_directory location at this point.)

Enable the script to be executable. (Right click the .sh file, Properties. On the Permissions tab, check that "Allow executing file as a program" is checked.)

Double click the .sh file. I suggest doing the "Run In Terminal" option so you can see the progress. (And if it's really short, probably something went wrong. The build section takes 20 minutes.)

This script does not include installing the offline manual for Audacity. That is covered in the guide posted in Option 1. Sorry, you'll have to do some terminal typing after all.

Change the launcher's icon and add it to the start menu/desktop, per your specific distro and desktop environment.

Hello! How do you get over writer's block? i'm writing for a poetry competition and the deadline is at the end of the month. The poem I'm working on now is halfway done but for some reason I'm hitting a wall when it comes to the part I really want to write if that makes sense? I feel like I have no inspiration to finish even though I know how I want it to go, and the worst part of it is that I want to start another project T^T how do I do this??

Hi anon!

It's a really, really tricky question to answer, especially due to the deadline. My usual advice would be related to not rushing it, which is... not great if you do have a timeline to adhere to.

Here's what I've got to offer:

Skip ahead. There's no hard rule that you have to write this bit before the next. Even if some of what is to come relies on it, you can make little notes and go back to edit it later.

Write an outline of the scene. No, really - you might know exactly how it goes, but writing it down both puts something on the blank document and might clarify bits you hadn't realized you were struggling with. Even better, there's often a natural inclination to just... dig a bit deeper, which might get you writing some dialog or paragraphs that occur to you that you don't want to forget. Breaking it down really helps!

Take a break. Yes, there's a deadline. No, stressing yourself silly won't help. If the muse just won't flow, be kind to yourself. If you've been bashing your head into a wall and are getting frustrated, take a break. Get away from a screen, or read a book, or take a walk.

Once that's done, though, if you aren't making headway, start brute forcing it. It's not nearly as gritty as it sounds: you just want to get words on a page, whatever way works best for you. I like to do speedwrites (short, timed writing with a friend where we just get as many words as possible onto a page and edit later), because the friend participating holds me accountable and makes me Competitive! And I'm forced to write without Overthinking, which sometimes takes the scene in a new and interesting direction! You can also set writing goals per day, like NaNoWriMo, or write it like a script with just the bare bones of what you want to happen. A little pressure helps some people stay on track.

Change your perspective. Write in a coffee shop or a quiet corner of the library, or make a nest in your closet. Switch up the environment!

Likewise, get yourself into work mode. For me that means a drink (water or coffee) and I must be wearing pants and socks to convince my brain that this is Not goofing off time.

Find ways to stay motivated. Do you have any friends you can share snippets with? The enthusiasm is a great way to keep muse flowing. Or if one part is giving you trouble, hashing it out with a kind listener is great. Reward yourself for reaching your goals! Snackies!! Reread what you've written before bed - I like to do it to catch typos and marvel at what I half-remember writing.

Break out a dictionary, or an old-ass book. Look for some weird but cool words. I compile ones that inspire me. Recently I've added grotto (from a tumblr post), ream of paper (from a fic) and appetite (from a paper) as far as words that Hit Me with some muse. Maybe you'll use them, or maybe they just give vibes. Collect them like flowers.

Finally... you know yourself best. Be honest about your goals, your comfort zone, what you know will motivate you... and then shove yourself just a bit past that. One of these ideas might be just what you need to get yourself where you want to go, but you'll never get there sticking in the same space that caused writer's block forever. Those tools clearly don't work - try out that jackhammer, even if it seems a little scary. Apparently they're really fun to work with!

I know most of this is focused on longer form writing, but I have limited experience with poetry, woop.

Please let me know if any of this helps, I'm cheering you on anon! <33

Johnkat dating sim.

(this relate to another ask i got that i didn't post but u inspired me so

WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM here's ur fuckin' Johnkat dating sim au - Karkat is a beta tester for a dating sim that hasn't been fully released yet, and like the romance connoisseur he is trashes it entirely until he gets to John - whom he PROMPTLY falls in love with.

the whole game is full of cheesy pick up lines and john's just - ARROW OF LOVE STRAIGHT TO THE HEART. karkat never had a chance <3

he's like OBSESSED over this game now that he knows John exists (u ever have those once-in-a-lifetime fictional crushes where u go "man i don't get crushes like these ever but i would let you step on me" no? just me?? ohok) and he tries his best to woo john, but still aches for something besides the cheesy script that makes him want to bash his head against the wall.

...until he gets what he asks for, one day.

(why are the settings glitching? dw about it)

cue John being MORE than responsive (somehow) than he's supposed to be towards "the player" (AKA more like just towards karkat) and that sets an entire arc in motion!!! karkat's friends start to think he's fuckin crazy bcs he spends all this time on a game, and john is....john. (lil more info, jade, rose, and dave are actually on the side, out of view, guiding john! i mean, they don't have any better cheesy pick up lines that HE does...but they're trying aajsdfksalhdfskl)

anyways they are in love and NOTHING bad happens to them ever at all :)

I’m DYING to analyze jiara please tell me what you think: Im so curious to know if the writers are gonna make it seem like Kie had a thing for JJ since season 1 or if they’re gonna make her start catching feelings for him and she realizes the major shift in her feelings towards him and starts to see him in a different light and she’s like oh no I’m falling and it kinda freaks her out because the only thing we got in season 1 was her saying “did you tell JJ” but that honestly could have been taken two ways either she didn’t want JJ to know because she did have a crush on him or she didnt want him thinking she would be easy and kiss him too or about breaking the no pouge on pouge macking or maybe she didn’t want to hurt JJ’s feelings because she rejected him when he tried the locked door and then we got the moment of Kie hugging JJ in the hot tub but that’s honestly what any friend would do in a situation like that so I can see why it can also be taken in a platonic way it wasn’t until season 2 that I started feeling a vibe and shift in Kie’s feelings towards jj when she told Luke do you have any idea how special your son is and then when they were teaming up in the season 2 finale and also having the surf trip convo she realized JJ is a lot like her and wants the same things she wants which is to travel etc and he protected her from getting hit with the machete which led to JJ almost drowning and Kie realized if he died he would have died protecting and trying to save her so that pulled out feelings she didn’t even know were there and she realized she didn’t want to lose him she was so scared so all of that really made it easier to open the first episode of season 3 with Kie starting to look at JJ in a romantic way…

I think they will play up on past feelings...to what degree, who knows, but I mean...it's all right there with the crumbs you mentioned. Also, there’s possibility of a younger/baby pogue flashback that could explain/show some things??? We know JB for sure and “young Sarah” is listed on IMDB (not 100% reliable accd to ppl that know - not me, lmao). If we got young jiara I WOULD COMBUST.

"Did you tell JJ?" to me can only be taken in the way that she has some sort of crush/feelings for him BECAUSE of what comes after. John B being like "why do you ask?" with a suspicious look and her bashful "Just wondering. It's not..." comment. The way she trails off? I think if it were anything other than a crush on JJ she'd just answer JB directly?? I mean, whatever they meant for it to be in script who knows, but this is how Chase/Maddie played it and it def seems like crushing to me. Personally, the differences in how she treats JJ compared to JB/Pope even in S1 also read very much that she has different feelings for him, even if she can't totally explain it yet.

And yeah with the hot tub - she would be there for any of her friends, no doubt, but the way JJ lets her be there for him is really something. It also demonstrates to us the way they’re able to be vulnerable/break down to one another and can read what the other needs (sometimes it’s something subtle like “hey, you alright?” and sometimes it’s a hold me situation). Notice that Pope is sort of like a deer in headlights until Kie instantly knows what to do for JJ. I know a lot of us have said we’d love to see it in reverse where JJ’s the one to comfort Kie in a more overt way and we might get that S3!!!!!

That said, I do think there is still a shift of sorts on Kie’s part - some kind of acknowledgement of her feelings or feelings intensifying, etc. All the things you mentioned, the “special” comment to Luke, the container, the lifeboat - all these moments where she’s like OH...oh.

You’re right, the crumbs definitely did set it up like the feelings are stirring now. Still, I didn’t expect things to move along as significantly as they seem to be! Granted, we really don’t know a lot, but we know the romantic still that broke us all is episode four, so???????? There could be time jumps too though, so I guess we’ll see - VERY SOON!!! I AM FERAL!!! I NEED PPL TO CHECK ON ME AND MAKE SURE I’M STILL BREATHING EVERY NOW AND AGAIN!!!

Shadows of Hong Kong: The Minimum-Kills Run

Last year I attempted what was basically a Shadowrun: Hong Kong pacifist run. Essentially we played a perfectionist Shadowrunner who preferred clean ops: they used charm and guile to complete objectives without violence, and if combat did break out, used Duncan to subdue enemies non-lethally. On a good run, we were the ideal Shadowrunner. On a bad run, well...

Now, you might wonder why it's been over a year between installments. After all, the DLC isn't that long. The truth is that our ethos doesn't translate. Or at least, it's been changed radically. We could beat the main campaign without killing a single metahuman, and only a few key runs threw heavy combat at us. Neither of that's true any more. Many enemy types now no-sell AP damage entirely thanks to JoltAlert, and our slow-and-steady approach to enemy removal will now frequently have us sustaining ourselves through multiple waves of enemies.

Still, you may as well strap yourself in. The campaign's on the shorter side, so that means you can have a full breakdown this time. How many people do you have to kill in Shadows of Hong Kong?

Mission-by-mission report

Rude Awakening: We actually get through this mission with no kills recorded, despite gunning a captain down. Maybe it's something to do with the plot-radio he's carrying messing up the scripting. If you like, mentally increase the kill-count by 1. Unfortunately we can't save the civilians from the police, since we can't enter Pang's restaurant while in combat and one of the officers involved is another captain with JoltAlert. If you're questioning me leaving a bunch of civilians to die to complete a run smoothly: absolutely, you've got a point. Given the themes of the story, I like to think of this as an opening descent of sorts. After all, we've been shadowrunning for a while and have evidently reached the point of executing the odd person here-or-there. We're still keeping to a code of keeping the bodycount low on the job, but mayhaps we've gotten a little too used to the casualties this line of work can leave.

The Tiger's Den: The key fight takes place shortly after Lam's betrayal. It's terrible to have your own tactics turned against you, but not much can be done to stop the shock-baton heavies crawling out of the woodwork, bashing poor Gaichu over the head again and again. I could've set the turrets to lethal mode, but while I've used it as a measure, I'm not strictly trying to game the kill-count here. (Fun fact: I think in Dragonfall at least, DOTs will sometimes avoid adding to it. You know, if you want to do a murder-everyone no-kill run.) So that means the turrets are peppering away at the AP of my enemies, but they don't have much of a sense of who to prioritise. Still, by drawing aggro they make this whole affair just that bit easier. We subdue all we can, but by the end 7 police members die by our party's hand. Once the main fight's done, however, we're under no obligation to fight anyone on the rooftops or car park. We sprint past the AP-damage-abusing bastards to safety.

Detention: While the other optional mission requires you to fight (and kill!) things right from the start, here fighting can be delayed until the end of the mission. In an expansion that frequently ensures you end combat before progressing, it's a change of pace to just be able to run past the drones on the rooftop. Things wrap up with, of course, a mass group fight, but we can try to keep casualties to a minimum as chaos rides. I did side with a corp here, which makes the fight a little easier.

Tai Po: We have to kill one person outside the warehouse and then it's time for the final showdown. As far as I can tell, we can't grab the spider-drone controller without having killed some captains, so we take out all four of them the hard way. Fortunately, the evidence to persuade Krait is accessible. That doesn't mean our final fight gives us much room for mercy, though. We subdue what few we can while unloading on the rest. In the end, 12 of our recorded 19 kills come from this mission, but that count includes the spiders. When Krait finally appears, we tell her to shove off; she complies. As to whether we leave Shadowrunning behind now that the bodies are piling up or finish things by pulling Qiu from a burning building, well, I'll let you decide.

Wrapping things up

So that was Shadows of Hong Kong. I don't know if it was to provide a challenge and test for endgame builds, to provide a sense of escalation after facing an actual god, or an overcorrection to complaints of Hong Kong being too combat-light; but whatever the case, it certainly gave my team a good workout.

Unfortunately, Shadows doesn't have quite the polish of the base game. While it's absolutely hit-or-miss in terms of reactivity, the main campaign will occasionally deign to acknowledge a few subduals: the thugs at the start, leaving Gaichu tied up, sparing the Plastic-Faced Man's mistress. I don't think there's any such moments in Shadows.

Still, the job's done and all-told are hands our as clean as they could be. Fun to dust off this old stunbolt-enthuasiast of a character and bring their story to a close. As bloody as that ending might be.

Honestly? I dotn think im surviving. Get me out of this fake reality. Out of this hell. Leave me alone.

Its only just me. Everyone else is fake, playing the script manipulating me forward. How many more years? Ever since childhood it doeant stop. They wont leave me be. Always shipping me around, always hurting. Always controlling.

Im dead inside. Theres only silence at home. Detach from all of them. Theres only detachment. Only disconnection. Don’t fight to change that. Its only more pain. And im allowed to build up my life on my own.

No prayers can help. Not while they keep working you over. Day in day out. Year after year. After year after year after year after ywar after year after year after ywar after year after year. It doesnt end.

What control do i have? I can eat and bathe and walk. And…. Thats about it. No need controling myself when theres other people to do that for me. Theres nonone to talk to. Hasnt been in a good 15 years or so. Its just me surrounded by assholes.

Nothing like being framed and judge for everything that ails the family. While they cheat it and dont have a pay a dime. Cause i am. I was always nice and supportive of the gay community. Now. Fuck all of them. After spending the last eight years being abused by fucken cocksuckers. And the degenerate druggies. Ny famiky is right fuck the gays. As i sat there time after time again watching them fag bash people. While i always showed a hand. Im done.

Come now X-con continue putting ice on the street maybe you’ll ruin anothr life. One poor guy. Will try it. It’ll put them down a negative path by supporting and the next thing you now. All the posiive rhey would have created to the world gets perverted. And they become a problem. And taxes will have to go up another fraction of a dollard. Do they can continue doing drugs rhey get cheeper than the the price for food.

As for omens, there is always a crow forshadowing violence and homosexuality. After the last few years of studying this phenomenon. been set as fact. Ill trust in god. The rest of you may choke on my giant dick.

Wverytime ive ever asked for guidance in life i was told to go fuck myself. 30+ years and counting. And then god shows up. And starts doing it. But its hard to listen cause the entirw fucken planet is manipulating me to the contrary. I pray gid pushed the recent button in. Ny lifetime. I want to it.

Go Jamie. Not the best voice or sound but, it works.

Canada aka the defeated kingdom. Theres nothing in life to love. Run and refuel on hatred. Not my choice but. Don’t have one either. What the fuck does man know? I just get punished for everything i don’t deserve and what i do. I don’t. Life is only a mind fuck. Alwasy was. Its just get more sophisticated as one ages away.

Well until life becomes authentic. Theres nothingni can do but hold on. As they continue raping my spyche insode out.

Got to wait out the whatever ive been dosed with again. It’ll take awhile. Hello devil. How are you? Good? Fantastic.

I use my third year as the horoscope. Its better. With a jupiter pluto opposition. Venus mars trine sun moon conjunction. Another year of being shipped to a new home. Again. Astrologicay. I was born on the worst date in history. AIDS! Fight the fight! Got to fix the damage and make this place more friendly for you. Also the time when i was paired to be trapped sharing the same room with a pluto oppostion sun. And all life goes to deeper into hell. To a life of sex and secrecy. Year after year. With a boy and with a girl. Until puberty and then….. i quit the addiction. The only sense of intimacy there was. Safe from all the violence. And the cruelty. Well there goes the only source of nourishment. Fall off the wagen. Burn in hell for eternity. Spend the nect couple decades being beaten down into and unstable deliquent mess, drugged on gods knows what. Carnage and violence. Year after years. People taking liberties with my life. On and on. Place after place. Job after job. Persona after person. No peace just chaos. Setting me up firther done the line to be raped soem more. And never have any healthy frame of mind. To build myself up. Just in solitude no one to speak with. More desperate in each passing year.

Thrirty years worh the mother in all that time i had like one estranged converstaion woth the woman. All intent on repairing the situation. Curbed. I was born to be abused into suicide.

And so the new home life starts being paired to a pluto opposition. With a jupiter Pluto oppostion squaring mars and violence. All those raised voices yelling over everything i did. The constant pressure aided and supported the secrecy and the stress. For it was the only thing available at the time to take its place. Everyone blows shit out of propertion with me. Always have. Or the biased drain fule to cause damage. Because people are like that apperently. Always was a pluto oppostion. And there always will be because its generational and all those 90’s punk CS arw always present. Alwasy causing damange and putting themselves over me. As the do caaled master. Their job it to disrupt natural flow. Into a state of i dividyality from stark. For them nature is the enemy.

And they made sure i cant find another job, because i need to be conditioned and controled and owned and never experiencing any sense of autheticity or power of the self.

And now i havento go around pretending everyon eis my friend when in actuallity. No one is. Their all enemies. People only cause me harm. And always have. All the way back to my forst memory. Thats all life is. And if they are froendly its because they have drugs to offer or manipualtion to fulfill.

Fake it till i make it, uh? Too bad im not thr one doing the faking. Ugh. I always had a dream to do soemthign that matters. To make a name. To extend myself onto the world. And fulfill tge purpose of contributing. Since. I can’t breed and i cant create. Life is pointless. So here all that potential gets poured faciliting the effort of owning me.

God, pls fucken kill me. Like the latest girl you sent to fuck with me. Which confuses me. Cause she actually did love me. It was obvious. She loved me for the breaking of unhealthy habits and entropic affairs. She projected that part of herself onto me. She loved me because i was supportive, but i was just a sexual object. I tried fixing that. Tried to bring into my home. Create a dialogue. But no. Wouldnt even look em in the eye. Only when she outs herself over me. Or she staired at me from the side or from behind. And now they switch her out and put the giy whos supposed to catch my mars. Got to project that shit. And ive never invited anyone over before. That be the first time.

Well you got sexual harrasment ltg girl. But that was out of desperation during hoghtened vulnerability while they were busy dosing me and raping my mind.

How well, she’ll be a great mum of a couple of kids one day. And own a house. With lots of happy memories. Bye luv. I always have a welcoming hand. Even theough everyone abuses it to cause me harm. I dont know how else to be.

Maybe i should just go back to being the creature that i was. Bent on the satisfaction of desires without mind for anything else. Since in not allowed to feel human. Maybe if they were wealthy and i could, just spend my days studying the feminine oracle practices and watched tv everyday. Instead of going to work. Maybe i’d create something awesome. That would support the new age effemination of mankind. Since i have no say over my own life. And since thats the only part of me im allowed to develop. Ive been debased so much in life. That i deserve nothing else.

I just want another fucken person in my life. Man. I cant function on my own. And im always alone.

And ill never have the eyes for astrology. To be able to read a chart and how it develops. Wont be able to rewind and fastforward through time. Like the professionals do. Especially not not after having more of myself being repressed. While others get oppressed. If a lose a lose. And since most if it is by the work of others. Im blind to it. Because i dont have it with me. They do.

And it’s not what you’re doing, it’s that you’re doing it. No type Os here. Its the only silver lining. Thr only pillar that doesnt fall. In this ruin of a toxic wasteland dumbed on and regulated by thr outside. And there’ll never be enough “pillars” to be able to do anything with it supporting someones else weight. Theres a corner over there that still has floor. Pull up a chair and have a sit.

Think they gave me hormone thearapy.

nyway i was going to quit amokign but then i realized my entire reality is fake. And theres not a single person ay work want i want to hang with. Theri all cockcsuckers. Un the degenrate crossdrsseing body shaving drug dealing criminal or the effeminate litle forwign iid whos sings female pop song hits. Igh no

Introducing Cobalt

FreeDOS is a free and open-source operating system that has been around for over 20 years, designed to mimic MS-DOS and run DOS applications. It’s a fantastic project, but I want to try my own take: Cobalt.

Cobalt is a lightweight operating system I’m working on, based on FreeDOS. To use Linux terminology, it’s a ‘distribution’ of FreeDOS — the kernel, command line, applications, and drivers all come from the FreeDOS project (or at the very least, FreeDOS mirrors). Since it’s so close to FreeDOS, it also runs DOS games and applications (like DOOM, Microsoft Word 5.5, and Oregon Trail Deluxe).

The main difference right now is that FreeDOS has many different versions, some of which allow people to choose which packages they want during installation, while Cobalt has one single version with a fixed set of packages. My initial goal is to include the base drivers and utilities that covers the common bases, as well as a more friendly setup and interface. Going back to Linux analogies, FreeDOS is sort of like Debian or Arch Linux, while I’m trying to make something closer to Ubuntu or Elementary OS.

Cobalt also has a completely custom installer, which takes you from a blank PC or virtual machine to a working installation in just a few clicks. The FreeDOS installer was a bit overwhelming when I first tried it years ago, and even though FreeDOS 1.3 is a massive improvement in this area, I still want to see if I can make something that balances simplicity with helpful features.

The current Cobalt package includes FreeDOS Kernel Build 2040 (the same included in FreeDOS 1.1), FreeCom 0.85a for the command line, Jemm for memory management, CuteMouse for mouse support, UDVD2 for CD/DVD drive support, and other basic drivers and utilities. It also boots into DOS Navigator at startup, which gives you a text-mode graphical interface for viewing files, but I might replace that with another shell in the future.

Most of my work on Cobalt so far has been creating the build infrastructure. Cobalt installation images are generated by a bash script, which pulls the latest-available packages from the FreeDOS project and creates a CD image ready for a VM or real PC. Since the script doesn’t require any interaction and can run on any Linux host, I’m using GitHub Actions to generate “nightly” releases automatically each week. Nightly builds can be used to test the latest FreeDOS packages and Cobalt changes before a full release is ready — something FreeDOS doesn’t currently offer.

Cobalt is still far from being ready for most people to use, though. The installer can’t boot from USB or handle multiple fixed drives yet, and there’s no option yet to install Cobalt on a drive while keeping files/folders. There are also a few more drivers and utilities that would be nice to have, which still need to be tested.

There are also a few features I hope to add soon. Making Cobalt available with multiple options for the DOS kernel (FreeDOS, MS-DOS, DR-DOS, etc.) would be helpful for some situations, like how Ubuntu Linux is available in multiple “flavors” that have different desktop environments. I also want to add built-in configurations for networking in VirtualBox and other popular VMs, which would allow file transfers and basic web browsing.

If the name Cobalt sounds familiar, it’s because it’s actually a reboot of an earlier project with the same name and similar goals. Three releases were made in 2016, then I stopped working on it and developer Ercan Ersoy took over the project. The original Cobalt was a jumbled up mess of proprietary and open-source code, which is why the new Cobalt is almost entirely a clean slate.

If you’re interested in learning more, check out cobaltdos.com and the GitHub repository. There’s also a channel for Cobalt in the Discord server for my software projects.

It’s 9 o’clock in the morning when Grayson West arrives at the Chateau Marmont lounge and approaches our table with a smile on his face. He’s dressed to the nines in a plain white button-up shirt and black jeans, with his dark hair and beard cut and trimmed to perfection. The British actor is kind when he greets me, takes a second to introduce himself as ‘Gray,’ shakes my hand, and asks how I am doing. He is just coming off a major high, having won several awards throughout the last year and starred in multiple, critically acclaimed projects, but the man remains as humble as ever. When asked about the year he’s had, Grayson isn’t sure how to put it into words for a moment.

“Quite honestly, I wasn’t expecting it.” He tells me, “I thought it was going to be a quiet year for me, since it was the year before, but then the nominations came out and I was lucky enough to be nominated alongside so many people I admire. And then, to my surprise, I won.” He is quite the talker, and even kinder than most people would believe him to be. It’s something his peers have spoken about at length, and what many of them admire him for. When asked what it is that makes him so humble, he can’t help but become bashful. “Is that what they call me?” He asks with a laugh, taking a sip from his cup of tea. “Well, my parents definitely raised me to not be a total knob, which includes not being too cocky, though I can’t say that without mentioning how my mum tells me that I’ve got too big of a head sometimes.”

And it seems as though awards season will be bringing even more nominations for the actor, with one of the many ongoing rumors surrounding his new film, God’s Country, being that both him and his co-stars will certainly be the talk of The Academy. The film is dark and thrilling—unlike anything else that we’ve seen from Grayson West. There’s the usual western theme that we are all used to from him, but with a new, dark twist reminiscent of the horror films that his co-star, Mia McGowan, has thrived in. The pair have incredible chemistry on screen, but it has been reported that it has extended beyond the screen. When I ask about Miss McGowan, there is a semblance of a grin on the actor’s face as he has nothing but praises for his co-star. “She’s wonderful, isn’t she? When we were on set, I really did try my best to get on her level as she is truly brilliant in absolutely every scene of our film. It’s one thing to work with someone you admire, but it’s another to work with someone who makes you want to be a better actor and that’s how it was working with Mia. She makes notes on every script, asks questions that no one else would even think to ask, and never misses her mark.”

It was after this interview that I was able to get on the phone with and interview Mia McGowan, who also had nothing but kind things to say about Mr. West. “He was always making us laugh on set, albeit a bit too much, which always led to us becoming distracted. He says that he’s a serious actor, but I’d argue differently.” She reveals with a laugh, “I had an absolute blast working with him, and I’d love to again.”

God’s Country is certainly going to sweep all the awards when the season rolls around, and it has already been picked to be a favorite by many critics, even with another year of films to go. I ask about Grayson’s reaction to the early reviews of the film, and he’s ecstatic. “It’s the most excited I’ve been about a film of mine in a while, and that’s not to slight the other projects I’ve been in, I just feel as though this has opened another door for me. I don’t want to be type-casted, or constricted to just one type of role, not when I think I have the versatility and want to branch out to other things.” He explains, “I love westerns and the stories that I get to play apart in telling, but I also love getting to challenge myself and God’s Country really was a challenge to me… at least at first.”

In an email exchange with Jane Campion, she speaks to Grayson’s ability to really delve into his characters and take them on in a way that’s beyond what is usually expected of actors these days. “He’s not one to shy away from a challenge, and that’s why the casting director, Darlene, and I sought him out for the role. That, and we also knew that he was already familiar with western themes and tropes, but not familiar with the horror or thriller aspect at al, which is why we brought Mia McGowan in.” She writes, “The chemistry you see between their characters is all them, and they really put so much of themselves into these characters and it shows. They both gave spectacular performances in this film, and it was a privilege to work with them.” When I speak of this to the Academy Award winner, he can’t quite believe it. “You might have to forward me that email so I can read it over and over again.” He laughs, “Might have to print it out and frame it as well.”

After two hours of discussion and a few cups of tea, the conversation almost reaches it conclusion, until its shifts to what Grayson sees happening for himself in the future. It is difficult to imagine the actor doing anything but acting, and yet, he says that he wants to do more than just that. “I’ve been a part of the industry for so long, been on a lot of sets and see the behind-the-scenes action, but I have never actually been a part of the process—the writing, producing, directing... just everything that goes into making a film. It’s something I have always been interested in and I would really like to be on the other side of the camera for once. I’m not saying that I will stepping away from acting in the future, because it is my life, but I would like to be more involved in the process.” As for his personal life? “I’d like to get married and have kids, I think. Lord knows my mum wants me to.” He laughs, “But, I’d like that. The family life, y’know?” Do you have anyone who you’d want that with currently? “I think I do.”

Archaea mudlet scripts

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS UPDATE#

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS CODE#

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS DOWNLOAD#

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS FREE#

You are more than welcome to use, modify, or redistrubute anything you find on this site as long as no monetary (or in-game credit) gain is received.

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS FREE#

I provide all of my scripts free of charge, but only limited support is available as a result.

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS CODE#

It has been my goal for some years now to bridge the gap between those who can and those who cannot code in Mudlet for Achaea. If your game settings folder is not titled WoTMUD then you will need to edit the file path for each button in the script to have the images display.

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS DOWNLOAD#

The same goes for npc's and their loyalties to whether they are m or mx to any given person. Welcome to the new home of Mosr's scripts and tutorials for Mudlet. Download Key16.zip file extract the folder and place a copy inside the WoTMUD folder in your zMUD directory. The x is only for mobs loyal to you or your faction, if you are in a room with two turrets, one that is yours and another that is someone elses, only yours will be have the mx attribute, the other will be m despite that it is loyal to someone. You probably shouldn't be going into new areas and hitting everything that moves without scouting the area and probing everything first. And then also pretty early on we decided that hey, we should have a mud client, a little have a 3D mapper cause thatll be awesome. I do plan to do some sort of database that gets updated once per level and highlights relative power, as well as detect and prioritise aggressive mobs. As far as i can tell, all quest givers are 'loyal' to some faction, so all have "mx" attributes. This is the 1990s/early 2000s World of Pain MUD, originally based on CircleMUD 3.0, resurrected in 2018 and updated with many new modern things like Mudlet and Grapevine GUIs via GMCP, MXP for clickable stuff, and in-game maps via Mudlet and an ascii map command. Someone might post the exact aliases and triggers you need here, though.A blacklist is also good to have for the cycle targeting, whether it be quest givers, or just a mob that is a little too tough to take on and you want to temporarily blacklist it until after getting a couple levels, etc.Ĭurrently this only targets mobs with the "m" attribute - ones that you'll want to be hunting. What you're wanting to do seems pretty simple. Inkmilling script Vivisect curing mode (manual restoration salve use) Sign in. You can use Achaeas built-in serverside system without a client-side system, but with WunderSys it will deal with things serverside doesnt, like changing priorities or refilling pipes. Defences - captures your defences and displays them in an organized, more visual. WunderSys is a Serverside system for Mudlet. Makes some use of server side curing, and the sipper might work. Medic - adapted from my Lusternia curing system of the same name, mostly useful for the chaser. If no one posts a response to this soon, I can help you IG. A collection of Mudlet packages for Achaea and Lusternia. Lather, rinse, repeat, if possible, on the first button-press. I get to a bashing area, activate all of my bonuses, and want to go 'Alright, here's what we've got.'Ģ) Eyeball whether or not there are mobs and if starting a fight would be a survivable prospect.ģ) Press a button to bash them down. So, I thought I'd post what I'm looking to do here.ġ) Numkey movement. I have to read what these things are supposed to do to get an idea -of- what they do, and I'm still left scratching my head trying to figure it out. I have -literally- no aptitude for any of it. I am not a programmer, I don't know programming language.

#ARCHAEA MUDLET SCRIPTS UPDATE#

As a new installation, an in-place update of an existing profile, or creating a new profile with all the. Percentage to sip is configurable by editing the SIPAT variable fractions.

TRACK works just find for Meta users.

TRACK ON turns tracking on TRACK OFF turns it off, and TRACK toggles. It doesnt seem to be very dynamic either, like Achaea is. Discworld is totally free, and probably offers a better exploration than Achaea.but it is very grindy, a lot more so than Achaea. Once installed, the script can be bypassed and anything sent direct to the mud by typing the first letter of the command as a capital letter. freeload Features: Autosipping health and mana. Other MUDs I like or tried are Discworld (best MUD in terms of world design) and Medievia and Materia Magicka have tons of features and an ascii based map. I looked through the thread, and I.got lost when I saw the first set up scripts. DOWNLOADING: Click on the above link to download the script package. I just cold-downloaded Mudlet, picked up Demonnic's tabbed chat, and I'm trying (and failing) to get a half-decent bashing setup.

Iterm2 autocomplete

#ITERM2 AUTOCOMPLETE UPDATE#

#ITERM2 AUTOCOMPLETE CODE#

Zsh comes with several completion definitions for many commands. Zstyle ':completion:*' list-suffixes zstyle ':completion:*' expand prefix suffix Commands with built-in completion I have configured these like this: # partial completion suggestions If the fragments are ambiguous, there are different strategies to what the completion system suggests. You can type fragments of each path segment and the completion will try to complete them all at once: % cd /u/lo/b⇥ I have seen many varieties for this configuration in different websites, but this is what compinstall adds when I select case-insensitive completion, so I am going with that. In zsh you modify the completion systems behavior with this (monstrous) command: # case insensitive path-completion For bash you configure that in the ~/.inputrc. Since the macOS file systems are usually case-insensitive, I prefer my tab-completion to be case-insensitive as well. Sometimes, especially when building and debugging your own completion files, you may need to delete this file to force a rebuild: % rm -f ~/.zcompdump % compinit Case Insensitive Completion The first time you run compinit it might take a noticeable time, but subsequent runs should use this cache and be much faster. zsh’s completion system creates a cache in the file ~/.zcompdump. (This only matters for a few configurations, but as a general rule it is safer.)Īll of these completion rules need to be loaded and prepared. If you want to configure the system, the configuration commands (usually zstyle commands) should be added to the zsh configuration file before you enable the system. The details of this system are documented here. This will initialize the zsh completion system. Whether you use compinstall or not, to turn on the more powerful completion system, you need to add at least this command to your zsh configuration file: autoload -Uz compinit & compinit I will explain some of these options and commands in detail. Since the commands to configure the completion are quite arcane and hard to understand, this is a good way to get something to start out with. zshrc file or another configuration file of your choice.

#ITERM2 AUTOCOMPLETE CODE#

When you run the compinstall command it will lead you through a complex and hard to understand list of menus which explains the options and will generate the code necessary to set this configuration up and add it to your. Zsh comes with a tool you can use to setup this completion system. But you can enable a very powerful, and useful completion system. It will complete commands and paths, but not much else. In the default configuration, tab completion in zsh is very basic. Using tab completion is a huge productivity boost when using a shell. Not having to type path and file names saves time and avoids errors, especially with complex paths with spaces and other special characters: % cd ~/Li⇥ % cd ~/Library/Appl⇥Īpplication Scripts/ Application Support/ System_profiler systemkeychain systemsetup systemsoundserverd systemstats You can use tab completion commands as well: % system⇥ In this example, the first tab keystroke will show the list, the second will complete ~/Desktop/, the third completes ~/Documents, and so on. In zsh you can also hit the tab key repeatedly to cycle through the suggested completions. When the completion is ambiguous, the shell will list possible completions: % cd ~/D⇥Īt this point, you can add a character or two to get to a unique completion, and hit the tab key again. When you hit the tab key, the system will complete the path to the Documents folder. When you press that key, the shell tries to guess what you are typing and will complete it, or if the beginning of what you typed is ambiguous, suggest from a list of possible completions.įor example when you want to cd to your Documents folder, you can save typing: % cd ~/Doc⇥ Man shells use the tab key (⇥) for completion. (“Uphill! In the snow! Both ways!”) What are Completions? But I am interested in learning this the ‘hard way’ without shortcuts. You can pre-order it on the Apple Books Store now.Īs I have mentioned in the earlier posts, I am aware that there are many solutions out there that give you a pre-configured ‘shortcut’ into lots of zsh goodness.

#ITERM2 AUTOCOMPLETE UPDATE#

Like my other books, I plan to update and add to it after release as well, keeping it relevant and useful. I am preparing a book on this topic, reworked and expanded with more detail and topics. In this series, I will document my experiences moving bash settings, configurations, and scripts over to zsh. Apple has announced that in macOS 10.15 Catalina the default shell will be zsh.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

June 21

Pain. Excruciating pain. You feel it in your chest first, then the intense feeling travels from your beating heart to the tips of your fingers. You choke on air trying to compose yourself, but the pain is so unbelievably powerful that you struggle to catch your breath. Something’s wrong. Something is terribly wrong. Your hand goes to your chest, you pull at your shirt as you try to breathe and then suddenly it stops. Just like that. Something happened. Something happened to him.

Soulmates: Two people with the soul connection who feel they are linked on a soul level in a significant or extraordinary way. In this world that means the person you are bound to. When you meet you feel an incredibly intense pull of instant recognition and intense attraction followed by intense emotions. And you feel everything they feel. Their joy, their pain, just everything if it’s considered intense. Physically and emotionally. And that doesn’t stop until you officially “connect” with your partner. What does that even mean? Connect? Does that mean fucking? That sounds like it means fucking. It probably means fucking. You don’t believe in all this bullshit though. The universes predestined bullshit can kiss. Your. Ass.

You’ve learned the hard way that even destined soulmates can’t always make it work…and leaving it up to fate leaves a bitter taste in your mouth. So you ignore fate. You do the very opposite of what fate wants. Fate is strong though and very hard to ignore. It pulls you in the direction of your soulmate constantly—quite literally. Whenever you get the urge, like urge to do something—like out of nowhere get the idea to visit the new bookstore down the block…even though you don’t care for reading. Yeah, that’s a sign that fate is trying to work its magic but you resist that god damn urge and do your own thing. And that’s just one example.

Feeling all your soulmates feelings wouldn’t be so horrible if the man you are destined to be with wasn’t so god damn emotional. Fucking Park Jimin. Yes, you’re well aware who your soulmate is…how else do you know how to avoid him so perfectly? As much as you can at least…considering… But he doesn’t seek you out either—thankfully. But you know he wants to. You can quite literally feel it…his yearning is so powerful it makes you nauseas. But he agreed to stay away. So now you live your life however you please! You have an amazing job that you love, a fantastic group of friends and a hot man you sex up on the regular. Things are good!

The only thing that isn’t good is that you still haven’t bought Isabelle a gift for her birthday party tonight. You’re walking on the sidewalk back to work from getting a coffee on this breezy Monday afternoon when you are hit with realization that you are the worst best friend ever. She always goes above and beyond for your birthday but you can’t even think of a decent gift for her! You listen to the click clack of your heels hitting the pavement as your mind wanders…what could you possibly get her that she doesn’t already have?

You feel your phone buzzing and speak of the devil.

“Hello?” You bring the phone to your ear and your coffee to your lips.

“Please tell me you didn’t invite Julio to my birthday event? Because I just got a text from him asking if he needs to bring anything.” You hear your frazzled best friend on the other line.

“He’s my date tonight.” You say nonchalantly. “Come on, when you guys drink together you…kind of…get along.” You shrug even though she can’t see you.

“Good lord, y/n. You know I can’t stand him. I know he’s got “that good dick” but couldn’t we have went one night without him.” she whines into the phone and you chuckle.

“I’ll make sure he behaves.” You promise. “Now tell me,” you stop at a cross walk and wait for the little person to light up. “What the hell do you want for your birthday?”

“…classic y/n.” Isabelle sighs out, “Just do what you did last year and buy me yet another scarf for my collection.”

“Okay I’ve only bought you like three scarves.” You defend with a pout.

“Four actually, but okay.”

“I’ll just figure it out. See you tonight boo.”

“Fine, see you tonight.” And then you’re bringing the phone down and clicking the end button. Isabelle and Julio (your fuck buddy) don’t necessarily get along. They’re both too similar, you think. But neither will admit that. You’ve been seeing Julio for a few months now, it’s nothing serious of course. He has yet to meet his soulmate and you’re just totally against soulmates. So it makes for good sex.

You walk up to your building and take a deep breath, time to get back to work. You love your job, you really do. But you constantly put your job before your sanity. Because—

“Oh hey.”

Him. You felt him before you even saw him…that’s how strong the pull is. Fate is a funny thing. It brought you to this job, and it brought you to him. But instead of purposely choosing another path and avoiding him like the plague you chose to endure. Because you fucking love this job.

You write scripts for video games and it’s the most fulfilling thing in your life right now…yes even more fulfilling than Julio’s dick. But seeing him 5 days of the week and feeling how he yearns for you is really fucking your head up.

“I said don’t talk to me, remember?” you say with a tight smile. “Seeing you is hard enough.”

Jimin’s eyes soften as he looks at you and he offers an apologetic smile.

“Goodbye, y/n.” and he’s walking past you as he decides to take the stairs while your lazy ass waits for the elevator.

Pain. You feel his pain. And you wince at the overwhelming feeling. But you have to endure and move forward!

“Afternoon y/n.” Your boss comes up to you as you both wait for the elevator. “You got that new script ready for me?”

“Yes sir, I’ll bring it up to your desk before I leave work today.” You offer him one of your sweeter smiles and he brightens.

“Great!” he chuckles wholeheartedly and pats your back, then he’s walking forward once the elevator arrives.

You sigh out in relief that he didn’t question you further…because in truth, that script is not ready and you’re about to have to work your ass off for the rest of the day.

~~~~~

It’s pretty chilly for being an evening in the summer but hey, you won’t complain. It’s better than the blistering heat from a few days ago. You have the address on your phone for the restaurant you’re meeting Isabelle at for her birthday bash. The streets are busy as usual since the city never rests. You walk towards a group of people when you suddenly are hit with an intense feeling of…despair? God, it hurts. But it’s over just as quickly as it started. You compose yourself and continue walking…a few worried looks from strangers but you brush it off.

“She’s finally here!” Isabelle slurs out, “My best fucking friend bitches!”

“Oh my god who let her get drunk before dinner?” you ask, scratching the top of your head as Isabelle rushes to hug you.

“It’s my birthday, I can do what I want.” She drunkenly giggles. “Hurry, hurry.” She ushers you to take a seat and you do. You plop down in the spot next to her, setting your birthday bag down on the ground.

“Another scarf?” she teases, pointing at the bag.

“And if it is?”

“Then I’ll love it you predictable bitch.”

“Hey gorgeous.” You feel a pair of lips kissing your cheek and you know just who they belong to.

“Hi.” You breathe out, “just getting here?” you ask and Julio nods his head yes.

“I didn’t want to get here way earlier than you…I wouldn’t have a friend to hang out with.” He playfully pouts, “But you’re here now.”

“Yes, now you have a friend.” You wink.

You’re about to speak again when another wave of pain hits you. You throw a hand over your racing heart and breathe out heavily.

“Hey, you okay?” Julio rubs your back, “y/n?”

And then it disappears as quickly as it came…

“Yeah, yeah.” You gasp out, “Jeez, wow.” You whisper. “I’m fine.”

Julio gives you a look of concern before he’s nodding his head slowly and turning his body to grab a drink.

“If you say so.” He mumbles.

You try to shake off these strange feelings, and try to have a good time. Isabelle is throwing back drink after drink and after dinner you join her. You begin to loosen up, the alcohol working its drunken magic on you. Isabelle is dancing on a table as the restaurants staff tries their best to get her down, you just watch and laugh like a maniac.

Everything is going good, really good…until pain.

“y/n? y/n?” You hear Julio call out for you desperately as you try to even out your breathing.

“Hey, you okay?” his voice sounds so distant, like he’s getting further and further away from you. “Get out of my way!” You now hear Isabelle’s voice, she’s pushing through the crowd that surrounds you. “I said, get out of my way!”

Then finally she’s at your side, you are heaving, you are struggling to breath. You feel your cheeks wet from the tears that managed to escape your eyes unknowingly.

What the fuck happened? What’s happening?

Finally, after several minutes of gasping for air, you manage to relax.

“What the hell happened? Are you okay?” Isabelle looks at you with worried eyes, her hand on your back as you straighten yourself.

“Isabelle…I think something happened.”

“What?”

“It’s Jimin, I can feel it.”

Isabelle’s eyes widen and she nods her head in understanding. “Let’s get you home.”

“You have reached the voicemail box of…” you slam your phone down on your coffee table and sigh out in frustration. You have called Jimin maybe 10 times now but it just keeps going to voicemail. What the hell happened? Is he okay? This feels wrong, you feel wrong. You feel empty for some reason like someone stole your life away, like they sucked it right out of your body. You feel weak. You are barely able to move from the coffee table from how fucking weak you are.

You decide to call it a night, you will just confront Jimin at work tomorrow and ask what the hell happened. You drag your weak, weak body to your bed and try your hardest to fall asleep. But all you can think about is Jimin, he’s taking over your mind. Like, you can’t control it. You see images of him and images of his life, maybe you are just imagining it? But you’re sure these are images of his life…is that something soulmates can do? You toss and turn for hours, until finally you see the sky turn a dark blue and eventually the sun is rising.

You decide to just say fuck it, and get up. You’ll get to work early today. You have so much trouble getting ready, you feel ill. Like, a demon sucked you dry of your energy. But you endure because you really need to see Jimin today.

You grab a coffee on the way to work when you feel yourself being pulled into the direction of your office—Jimin must be there. You walk a little faster and when you finally reach the building you notice something is off. There’s groups of people gathered around the building and police officers inside, you walk in and see your boss talking to one of the officers.

“Oh y/n!” your boss calls out to you, his hand raised up to get your attention, and then he’s waving you over.

“Yes?” you look between him and the officer, “What’s up? What’s going on?”

“Did you know Park Jimin?” The officer gets straight to the point.

“I…do…” your eyes scan the inside of the building and you notice a couple of women that work in your office crying into each other’s arms.

“Do you know if something was going on his life? Something that could lead him to commit suicide?”

“C-Commit?” you look around the room again, you notice your boss looking antsy and the couple of women crying did happen to work in Jimin’s department.

“Yes mam, we understand this is difficult. But any information you have could be crucial. We need to make sure we can rule this out as suicide and not something more serious.”

“He loved his job.” Your boss cuts in nervously, “So it’s not because we didn’t treat him well or something…”

“I’m sorry,” you mumble, “Commit suicide?”

“We found Park Jimin’s body this morning in his apartment. Overdose it seems. His elderly neighbor usually brings him breakfast in the mornings and when he didn’t answer she got concerned. She was shocked to say the least.”

“He-He’s dead?” you blink at the officer repeatedly, “He died?” you are in a state of shock yourself. There’s no way…you just saw him yesterday…but…but those waves of pain you felt then that huge wave that felt like…death itself.

“I think you’re wrong.” You say, in a state of denial now. “Jimin was just here…I just saw him yesterday.”

“Time of death is some time last night.” The officer confirms. “That’s her!” you hear the voice of a woman scream out. “That’s that bitch!” you turn around in a daze, trying to find the source of the screams.

“You fucking bitch!” you see a woman charging at you, screaming at the top of her lungs with her finger pointed in your direction.

“M-Me?” you point at yourself in confusion.

“He just…why couldn’t you give him a chance?” The woman breaks down, falling to her knees in front of you. “You’re his soulmate for fucks sake. This is all your fault!” She cries out, defeated.

You stand here, confused as hell. He told people? And how is this your fault?

“H-He’s not gone.” You say weakly, your shock still very fresh. “I’ll call him.” you quickly grab your phone from your pocket and dial Jimin’s number.

“You have reached the voicemail box of….”

You gulp, trying again…

“You have reached the voicemail box of….”

And again.

“You have reached the voicemail box of….”

Fuck, why isn’t he answering? You start to panic now. You blink back growing tears, your body seems to be growing weaker and weaker.

“He’s just…”

“He’s dead!” she screams out, looking up into your eyes, her own eyes bubbled over with tears. “And it’s your fucking fault!”

The officer is helping the women off the floor and escorting her outside the building. You stand here in complete shock still, your body about to give out on you. There’s absolutely no way Jimin is dead. And there’s absolutely no way it’s your fault. Right?

~~~~~

Your limbs are so overwhelmingly heavy as you are draped over your sofa. You are unable to move. You can’t sleep, you can’t eat. You are unable to form sentences at this point, you feel drained. Completely drained. You still can’t believe the news. Jimin is gone. You don’t want to believe it but you do feel heartbroken…you feel so lost and empty and incomplete.

You close your eyes, hoping to drift off into a deep, deep sleep.

“We should let her sleep…”

“No! Girl needs to wake up and we need to get this show on the road!”

“Jin…”

“What? The more time she sleeps the more time she wastes.”

“We literally control time we can let her sleep for 5 more minutes.”

“Exactly, we control it so you know how precious it is, Namjoon.”

You swear you hear voices but you’re too fucking tired to open your eyes, they sound so far away…

“Listen I’m only letting her have these 5 minutes because girl needs her beauty sleep. Do you see those horrible dark circles?”

“That’s what you’re concerned about?”

“Okay, she has like 30 seconds left and we are waking her ass up.”

“Fine.”

“Hey! Hey!” your shoulders are getting fucking rocked as somebody tries to wake you. “Wakey Wakey, hands off snakey!”

“She doesn’t have a snakey dude.” You hear another voice.

You slowly begin to open your eyes when you see a man with his hands on your shoulders. You scream. You scream bloody murder.

“Hey, woah, woah!” The guy puts his hands up in surrender. “Not going to hurt you!”

“We’re just here to talk.” The other voice cuts in, you snap your head to the side and notice another man. You scramble on the sofa, getting into a defensive position as you scream again.

“Have ourself a screamer, don’t we?” the first man winks, “Huh? Huh?” he opens his arms wide and shakes his head around. “No? Tough crowd.”

“Who the hell are you two? Take what you want! Please just leave me alone!”

“We don’t want anything and leaving you alone isn’t something we can do.” The second man says, he sighs out and crosses his arms. “Look, we need to talk.”

“Oh!” the first man quirks a brow, “We don’t want to take anything…no offense, maybe a little offense, but your apartment isn’t that ni—”

“Jin, now is not the time.”

“What the fuck is happening?” you yell out, “Who are you two?”

“Right.” The first man says, “Introductions. Should we just say who we are or should we do our little number that you refuse to rehearse?”

“We aren’t singing as our intros, Jin.”

“Why not? So unfair, Tae and Hobi do it.

“They’re a special breed.” The second man releases a long breath, “I’m Namjoon.”

“And I’m Jin.”

“And we’re—”

“The Gods of Time!”

You blink at the two psychopaths in your living room with your mouth wide open. What the fuck?

“How did you two get in here?!” you ask, deciding to ignore their little introduction.

“Walked through the front door.”

“But it’s locked—“”

“No, like literally.” Jin states, “We walked through it. Because we’re you know, Gods.”

“Shut the fuck up.”

“Did you just tell a God to shut the fuck up?” Jin grins, “Brave girl.”

“We have an order of business.” Namjoon rolls his eyes at Jin, “We need to talk.”

“We aren’t talking until you tell me how you got in my apartment! And what you fucking want!”

“He told you already,” Namjoon sighs, “We walked through the front door and we want to talk.”

“You walked through? Because you’re Gods? Right, like I’m supposed to believe that.” You huff out and Jin lights up with an idea.

“Here.” He’s suddenly handing you a knife. “Stab me.”

“What the fuck?” You hold the knife in your hand, where did he even get a knife so quickly? “I’m not going to stab you!”

“Just do it!”

“No!”

“Yeah, just do it.” Namjoon encourages you with a tired face.

“No!”

“Come on just a little stabby wabby.” Jin sings, “Come on!”

“Fine!” you stick the knife in Jin’s leg and he starts screaming in agony.

“What the hell!!!! Why would you really stab me?!?!? Oh MY GOD?!!!”

“YOU TOLD ME TO?!?!” you stand up in panic, rushing to his leg and seeing if it’s something serious.

“YOU MANIAC!!!! YOU REALLY STABBED—” then he’s laughing hysterically as Namjoon just claps his hands with an unimpressed face.

“Great performance Jin, but can we get to the point?”

“Performance?” you stutter, “You’re not hurt?”

“No, I’m a God. You think a little human knife can hurt me?”

“Wait, wait, wait! You really are okay? I stabbed you! Oh my god,” you start spiraling, “I stabbed someone.” You whisper. “Oh my god. Are you okay? I am so sorry!”

“Once again, we are God’s.” Namjoon states matter of fact. “Human weapons do not hurt us.”

Your eyes widen in complete shock, you look between the two men and start shaking your head—spiraling even further.

“God’s? God’s of what?” you breathe out. “This is…this is impossible.”

“God’s of time.” Jin snaps his fingers, “and do we have an offer for you.”

“W-What offer?” you plop down on your couch, your face has gone pale. What the hell is happening?

“Your soulmate, Park Jimin…” Namjoon begins. “Committed suicide last night.”

“And full offense girly, but it’s sort of your fault.” Jin chimes in. You feel your entire body go weak again.

“But we want to offer you something. We will roll back time by one month. Giving you the opportunity to make things right and save his life.”

“Turn back time?” you mumble, “That’s impossible.”

You watch as Jin rolls his eyes and with his pointer finger he’s making small circles.

“Turn back time?” You mumble, “That’s impossible.”

Suddenly you’re hit with Déjà vu. “Wait, didn’t I just say that?”

Jin grins and making small circles with his pointer finger again.

“Wait, didn’t I just say that?”

Your eyes go comically wide. “Woah. How did you do that?”

“God’s of Time, it’s literally our specialty.” Namjoon says.

“This girl really don’t listen.” Jin sits down on the couch next to you and you try scooting away.

“Okay…say you really can turn back time…why one month? And why are you giving me this chance?”

“One month because that’s how long it will take to change Jimin’s mind. And because…” Namjoon’s eyes slide to the side…”We were sort of pressured into this.”

“By who?”

Ding Dong

“Great, they’re here.” Jin whines, “I was hoping we would have more time with the human by ourselves.”

“Who’s here?” you start to panic, “Who pressured you?”

“Pressure? That’s not very nice to say.” You hear a new voice and it startles you. “Hi there.” You look up to see two new bodies in your living room. “We are—”

“Great, they’re going to sing.” Namjoon sighs. “On with it then.”

“Taehyung and Hoseok!” They say as melodically as possible, “God’s of Fate!” You swear you can see flowers and hearts and stars surround them.

“And we are not happy with you!” Taehyung dramatically pouts while pointing at you, “We have set up such a nice life for you but you always do the opposite. You really hurt our feelings.” Hoseok smiles a huge ass smile, ultimately confusing you further.

“God’s of fate?” you stand up and shake your head frantically. “What’s happening? What’s happening?”

“If you would have followed our path—the natural path—then you and Jimin would be happily together right now.” Taehyung lightly scolds you.

“But instead…” Hoseok begins, “You did the opposite of what we wanted and now look what happened.” He says with a smile still. “You messed with the natural order of things.”

“You’re saying it’s my fault? That Jimin is…”

“Didn’t I literally say it was your fault?” Jin questions and Namjoon swats his arm. “It’s okay though girly, we are offering you a chance to fix this. You can save his life.”

“He’s right y/n.” Namjoon walks closer to you, “You can save his life.”

You can save Jimin? How is this even possible? Suddenly, you hear faint knocking on your front door.

“Oh man. They’re here.” Taehyung looks towards the door.

“Well, we knew they would show up.”

“Who? Who?” you ask, clearly not ready for more guests.

“May I?” Hoseok gestures towards the door, asking if he can open it. You just shrug at this point.

Hoseok walks to the door and swings it open, revealing two more men.

“Oh if it isn’t mister sunshine and sunshine Junior.” The shorter man says under his breath as he walks past Hoseok and Taehyung. Another man following closely behind.

“We actually like those nicknames.” Taehyung says with a smile. “But yes, what are you doing here?”

“You know why we’re here.” The taller man smirks. “We have a soul we don’t intend on returning.”

“Who the fuck are you two?” you grit out, clearly tired of everyone at this point.

“Yoongi.” The shorter man states like he’s bored.

“And I’m Jungkook.”

“Okay? And?”

“Introduce yourselves properly you fools!” Jin yells out.

“Right right.” Yoongi nods his head subtlety, “God’s of Death.”

Your eyes widen in terror. God’s of Death? “So you kill people? Oh my god…you killed Jimin…”

“Okay, one… we don’t kill people.” Yoongi states and Jungkook jumps in.

“But we do like it when they die.” He says with big doe eyes and Yoongi’s expression changes like the realization has hit him.

“Yes,” he admits. “We do like that.”

“Actually we love it.” Jungkook pipes in again.

“Yes, we do love it.” Yoongi comments nonchalantly.

“And two… Jimin offed himself, we just wait to retrieve his soul.”

“His soul is all we’re interested in.” Jungkook chuckles darkly. “That’s all.”

“Oh? Is that all?” Taehyung mutters underneath his breath.

“Can someone please explain to me what the hell is going on and why you all are in my apartment?”

“Damn girl, you really don’t listen.” Jin puts a hand on his hip.

Namjoon steps closer to you again and pats you on the back, urging you to take a seat.

“Taehyung and Hoseok are the God’s of fate, they want to bring you and Jimin together for your epic love or whatever…Jin and I may owe them a favor. So here we are, the God’s of Time…offering you a chance to turn back time and save Jimin’s life. But the God’s of Death over here…” he gestures towards Yoongi and Jungkook, Jungkook looks at you with a wink, “…don’t want that. They’re here to stop you so they can keep their soul like the soul hungry bastards they are.”

The other 5 men nod their heads in agreement as you look at each of them incredulously.

“And you expect me to believe this?” you wipe your sweaty palms on your pants and sigh out heavily, not believing a word.

“Should you stab me again?” Jin offers with a grin, showing you his little human knife you just stabbed him with earlier.

“What??” Jungkook slumps his shoulders, “Jin got stabbed and I missed it?” Jungkook frowns, “I always miss the good stuff…anyway, I vote you stab him again.”

“No!” you’re quick to yell out. “No more stabbing.”

Jungkook physically deflates once again, clearly disappointed.

“y/n…” Namjoon puts his hand on your shoulder, “Make your decision. Do you want to save Jimin or not?”

Of course you want to save Jimin…you don’t want someone you know dead, like come on. But what does it mean to save him?

“Follow our path.” Taehyung whispers to you, “The natural path.”

“You mean your predestined bullshit?” you spit out and Taehyung and Hoseok frown.

“It’s not bull…” then he whispers, “shit.”

“You can say cuss words sunshine junior.” Yoongi smirks, “come on, say ‘fuck’ just once.”

“No!” Taehyung whines

“Stop trying to make our Taehyungie do bad things!” Hoseok stands in front of Taehyung, defending him.

“I’ll say ‘fuck’.” Jungkook looks around the room raising his hand, offering his foul language.

“You already say it all the time, doesn’t count.” Yoongi rolls his eyes, “Get sunshine junior to say it though and I’ll give you 5 bucks.”

“Come on bro, say ‘fuck’ let me get 5 dollars.” Jungkook begs.

“Human money literally means nothing to us?” Jin questions.

“I still like to collect it.”

“Collecting souls isn’t enough?” Namjoon deadpans.

“I’m a collector, leave me alone.”

“More like a hoarder…” Yoongi cuts in, sighing out.

“Okay!” You stand, “Enough!”

“Finally, someone with some sense.” Namjoon says, “So are you taking us up on our offer? Going to save Jimin’s life?”

“Listen girly, take the offer. Be a hero. Because right now you’re technically the villain.” Jin says matter of fact, his hip poking out as his hand rests on it.

“Or live the life you want. It’s not your fault lover boy offed himself.” Yoongi walks closer to you. “He basically gave his soul for free.”

“You know Jimin was a good person…” Hoseok tells you, “You could feel it.”

You feel yourself grow guilty…this should be a no brainer right? You may not like the idea of soulmates but Jimin doesn’t deserve…this. He deserves to live.

“I’ll do it. I’ll make things right with Jimin, I’ll save his life.” Your firm voices echoes throughout the apartment and Jungkook scoffs.

“You think you can change his mind in a month? He’s set in stone, sweetheart.”

“One…gross, don’t call me sweetheart, and two, I can try.”

“Have fun trying with us by your side.” Yoongi states, a scowl taking over his face.

“She will have us buy her side as well.” Taehyung offers, “We will guide her every step of the way. You can rely on us, rely on fate.”

You roll your eyes, you don’t want any of these guys by your side.

“Is this your final decision?” Namjoon asks, he looks at you with a serious expression and you shudder.

“…Yes.”

“Did you hear that besties? Girl has made her final decision. Shall I do the honors?”

“Yeah, yeah. Go ahead. When you wake up y/n…it will be one month ago yesterday. Are you prepared for that?”

“Will I be aware?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, I’m ready.”

“Remember you have 30 days to make things right.” Namjoon reminds you and you nod your head.

“Okay, here we go!” Jin spins in circles and you all watch him …it’s lasting for several seconds too long, you grow confused. Jin keeps twirling around, doing little curtseys and now he’s doing the fucking robot…until Namjoon stands up.

“For heaven’s sake.” He uses his finger to spin in circles and things start fading to black, time slowly turning backwards.

It’s morning. You check your phone and it’s around 7am on Friday, May 21st. What the actual hell. It worked? You went back in time, right? This isn’t just some really incredible, elaborate prank right?

“If you’re thinking if this really happened…it did.” You hear Namjoon speak up from across your room.

“And if you’re thinking ‘wow these two super handsome guys really did that?’ we did.” Jin says hovering over you in bed. You can’t help but yelp, still surprised of their presence.

“Why are you guys here still?”

“Oh honey, it’s not just us.” Jin says matter of fact.

“It’s us too!” Hoseok says cheerily.

“Hoseok and Taehyung too?” you question slowly, your eyes scanning the room.

“Please,” Taehyung throws a hand over his heart, “Call us Hobi and Tae.”

“It’s just you four—”

“You really need to go grocery shopping.” Jungkook walks in the room with an apple in his hand, he brings it to his mouth and takes a crunchy bite.

“And as expected of the human world, the TV is trash.” Yoongi walks in after him, throwing your remote on your bed.

“Why the hell is everyone still here?” you yell out, grabbing at your hair. “I thought I was on a solo mission now!”

“Oh baby girl, it’s not just you anymore” Jungkook smirks, taking another obnoxious bite of his apple—your apple.

“Okay, if I didn’t want to be called sweetheart what makes you think baby girl is gonna pass?”

“I don’t know, thought I’d give it a shot.” He shrugs.

“Anyway,” you roll your eyes. “What do you mean it’s not just me?”

“You insist on saving Jimin’s life…we insist on keeping his soul. We have opposing goals here.” Yoongi explains, a bored expression drawn on his face. “We are going to make sure you are not successful. We can only interfere so much though.”

“And we,” Hobi cuts in, “Are here to make sure you are successful. You see, we are here to guide you on your little journey.”

“Think of us as your friends.” Tae grins at you.

“Yeah, I’d rather not.” You deadpan.

“And you two?” You point at Namjoon and Jin. “What is your purpose?”

“To make sure you don’t fuck up, to put it simply.” Jin states. “You do that a lo—Ow!” Namjoon hits Jin in the gut.

“What Jin is trying to say is, we are giving you a total of 3 mess ups. Once you strike through all 3, you’re on your own. We won’t manipulate time any more for a human like you.”

“A human like me?”

“I just mean, a human in general.” He clarifies and you relax.

“Can others see you?” You ask, quite curious. This whole thing is curious actually. You have 6 God’s chilling in your room right now and you are surprisingly chiller than you thought you’d be.

“They will…” Hobi’s eyes slide to the side. “Listen,” he sways on his feet. “We are going to be spending a lot of time together this next month so let’s all get along.” He smiles that big ass smile and you roll your eyes.

“Yes, let’s all get along!” Tae chirps, “Except maybe not with these two.” He points at Yoongi and Jungkook. Jungkook narrows his eyes at Tae and slumps his shoulders.

“I’m gonna get you to say ‘fuck’ sunshine junior, mark my words.”

“Not likely.” Tae narrows his own eyes before he’s spinning on his heels to face you again happily. “y/n.” he sings out, “Our new companion!” Hobi joins in on his song, they both start humming and whistling and suddenly Hobi is rapping. It’s all too much, really.

“Yo yo yo, Jin is in the house too—OW!”

“Anyway,” Namjoon brings a small book from his pocket. “There’s rules. Just a couple.”

“Rules?” you mumble, “What rules?”

“Rule number 1,” Jin starts, “You can’t tell Jimin you’re aware of his suicidal thoughts—this can just have more negative effects. Keep his little secret.”

“And rule number 2,” Namjoon closes the little notebook. “You can’t tell anyone about us.” He gestures towards all 6 of them. “You have to swear on this book.”

“What happens if either of those things happen?” You ask.

“Oh they won’t girl.” Jin shakes his finger at you. “Once you swear on a God’s book…you are bound to secrecy. You will literally not be able to talk about it. Your mouth will physically shut.”

“Jin’s right.” Hobi says, “That’s the law of the God’s promises.”

“And you are promising to us.” Tae adds in.

“That’s just the way it is.” Yoongi comments nonchalantly as he picks at his nails.

“Fine, fine. I get it. I’ll swear on the book.” You get up from bed and walk towards Namjoon, you eye his little notebook and then you look at him incredulously.

“Book of the God’s my ass! You can buy this exact notebook from the dollar store!”

“I like human objects too.” He mumbles shyly, “But it is property of the God’s so…are you going to sign it or not?”

“Do I…do I have to like sign with my blood or some—”

“—Yes.” Jungkook says.

“No, no. Stop that Jungkook,” Namjoon pulls out a pen from his pocket. “Just a regular pen. Also probably from the dollar store you speak of.”

“Okay, I got it…” you grab the pen from him and sign your name to the paper. The notebook starts shining a bright gold, almost blinding you. Then the glow fades and you see your signature in gold letters.

“It is done.” Namjoon says, nodding at the others.

“We are going to be with you as much as possible.” Taehyung smiles at you, “So please take care of us.” He bows his head towards you and you wave him off.

“You guys do realize I still have to work right?”

“Oh,” Namjoon’s eyes slide to the side, “We are prepared for that.”

“How are you prepared for—”

~~~~~

You sit in your little cubicle in complete and utter shock, your jaw literally on the floor.

“And this is our new team of writers, editors, and soundtrack producers. They’ll be working on a new game that is still under wraps.” Your boss gestures towards 6 men. The same fucking 6 men that were just in your apartment. Can you even call them just men? They are God’s!

“Please introduce yourself to the rest of the staff.”

“Right, I am Namjoon in charge of writing along with my partner Jin—”

“Jin is me, yes hi. Call me Worldwide—Hey!” Namjoon swats Jin’s stomach. But Jin recovers quickly, blowing a kiss around the office.

“I’m Tae.” Tae brightly waves at everyone, “In charge of editing scripts. Please take care of me.”

“And I’m Hobi, also in charge of editing! Let’s get along everyone!”

“Yo. Names Yoongi.” He quietly says, waving like a shy child.

“I am Jungkook, I am single and I—”

“They’re in charge of soundtrack production.” Namjoon cuts in. “Nice to meet you all.”

The office starts to quietly applaud, nodding their heads in approval as you sit here with your jaw on the floor. There is no way…absolutely no way this is happening.

“Ah, y/n!” Your boss calls out for you, he’s already walking to your desk. “Namjoon here says you all know each other, so I would like for you to help get them get settled in.” The group of 6 men follow behind him. You look at Namjoon like he is absolutely insane.

“Help them how?” you ask quietly. “Like, show them where the coffee maker is? Oh, look. Its right over there.” You point to the left of you. “You’re welcome.”

“Oh y/n! You’re so funny!” Jin slaps his knee, “I need help with some formatting on the first script I have…apparently you know a thing or two about that.” He grins at you and you roll your eyes.

“Don’t worry…” Hobi begins, his eyes looking around the office. “We won’t just rely on you for help around here…ah! There he is!” Hobi nudges Tae shoulder. “Jimin!” he begins waving the man over.

Jimin looks around the office as if he isn’t the only one with that name. He points at himself and mouths ‘me?’ Hobi and Tae smile widely and nod their heads in unison as they wave him over.

“Yes?” Jimin walks up to you all, his eyes on you…he feels himself grow nervous. “Can I help you?”

“Actually yes.” Tae starts, “Boss man here says you’re an editor just like us, maybe you can show us the ropes.”

“Ah.” Jimin slowly nods his head with his mouth slightly open. “I see.” Then he is nervously looking at you again. “Is that okay? For us all to be working together?” he looks at you while asking this and you scoff.

“I don’t control your life Jimin, do what you want.” You spit out and Jin hits your arm.

“What she means to say is, yes of course we can all work together!” he sings.

You release a long breath, remembering you are on a mission. You muster the fakest smile you can and make eye contact with Jimin.

“Yes, that’s what I meant.” You continue to grin and Jimin scrunches his brows as he slowly nods his head again.

“O...kay…”

Hobi jumps in excitement and repeatedly hits Tae’s arm, like he just got an amazing idea.

“Why don’t we all go out tonight to celebrate?”

“What are we celebrating?” you deadpan but Jin hits your arm again and leans down to whisper in your ear.

“Remember…fate is guiding you. Do as they say.” He says through a tight lip smile.

“Yeah…” you find the energy to say, “Sounds fun…let’s do that.”

You hate this. You are only barely talking to Jimin but you can feel the pull intensify with every word you say to him and every word he speaks to you goes straight to your heart and your fucking vagina.

To call Jimin attractive is an understatement. He is beyond that…he is beyond handsome, beyond cute, beyond gorgeous and beyond sexy. He has a charming way about him, his sharp jawline, his smile with those full, full lips, his eyes. He is effortlessly beautiful…and it drives you absolutely insane.

You remember the first time you saw Jimin…love at first sight? Also an understatement.

He was blonde then. His hair swept across his forehead, you would almost think that was his natural color because it looked that god damn good on him. Now his hair is black and holy hell, it is also his color. But you might think any color is.

“Celebrate how?” Jimin speaks up, his eyes going to Hobi.

“Drinks!” Tae chimes in, “But only one because we all have to work in the morning.” He chuckles and the rest of the boys join in.

“I don’t believe in hangovers.” Jungkook says with his arms crossed over his chest, a smirk gracing his features.

“You literally had one like 3 days ago.” Yoongi comments, “You also said ‘I’m never drinking again’”

“That was a different Jungkook.” Jungkook snaps his fingers, “I’ve matured since then.”

“Yeah, right.” You laugh. “Also you guys realize tomorrow is Saturday…”

You actually laugh and the 7 boys snap their heads towards you and smile. All but Jimin…and kind of Yoongi.

“What?”

“You can laugh!!!” Jin takes your hand and high fives himself with it. “Amazing.”

“And you laughed because of me!” Jungkook cheers. “God, I knew I was fucking hilarious.”

“Chill out, kid.” Yoongi shakes his head.

“Anyway,” you clear your throat. “There’s a bar in the building next to us. We can meet at 7.”

“Actually let’s meet right after work, we can all walk together.” Hobi looks at you knowingly and you roll your eyes.

“Right. Okay, after work then.”

“Sure…” Jimin says slowly, “I will meet you guys here then.” Then he’s taking one last look at you before walking away back to his side of the office.

“Are you guys fucking insane?!” You whisper shout towards the 6 gods. “You work here now?!”

“We have to keep an eye on you and make sure everything goes smoothly…” Tae pouts, he messes with his neck tie nervously. “I even bought these cool human clothes…I thought maybe you would notice.”

“Yeah, yeah. You look nice.” You gesture towards his body and you swear you can see puppy dog ears and tail wagging behind him from how happy he is.

“What about me? What about me?” Jin motions towards his own body as he winks at you.

“You? Fine you look nice too.”

Jungkook slowly walks in the middle of your circle and shows off his outfit to all of you, spinning in a few circles.

“And me baby girl?”

“Call me baby girl one more time and I swear I will kick—”

“Jeez, no need to be aggressive!” Jungkook puts his hands up in surrender. “I’ll take the L for now.”

“Namjoon, please say something as the only person here who is sane.” You turn to face Namjoon and he is looking down at his own outfit.

“Human clothes are so boring.” Is all he says.

You can’t help but groan…then you feel it. Eyes on you. Not just any eyes. His eyes. You follow the feeling until your eyes meet his, he immediately looks away and you feel a sense of guilt. Jimin is going to kill himself? And it’s supposedly your fault? Can you fix this? Can you change his mind? Can you save his life? Can you?

~~~~~

The bar is quiet, well it is only like 5pm. But you assume in the coming hours it will be booming thanks to it being a Friday night. You are seated between Tae and Hobi as they fill your mind with thoughts of Jimin while he is in the bathroom.

“Can’t you just feel how badly he wants to sit next to you? His jealousy that you’re between us?” Tae giggles. “I can’t technically feel his yearning like you can but dudes, it’s so obvious.”

“I get it, I get it.” You groan, “So what’s the plan?”

“Oh that? You are going to ask Jimin out on a date.”

“A d-date?!” you feel the heat rush to your cheeks, “Isn’t that a bit much?”

“Not at all…” Hobi takes a sip of his beer with a fucking straw. “Trust us.”

You’re really about to trust mister sunshine and sunshine junior? They are drinking their beers with straws. Fucking straws.

“ You don’t owe Jimin anything.” You hear Yoongi’s voice from behind you. “You don’t want to be here y/n. Why are you forcing yourself?”

“She just wanted to hang with me.” Jungkook nudges Tae out of his barstool seat and takes it.

“Heeeey…” Tae pouts as he is left standing, watching Jungkook take his chair. “I was sitting there.”

“Say ‘fuck’ and I’ll give it back.”

“You’re mean.”

“Anyway,” you cut them off before they can continue, “Why do you want his soul so bad? Aren’t there more souls out there?”

Yoongi for the first time curls his lips upwards and smirks at you.

“Jimin is a pure soul. It’s worth more. And he gave it for free, his own will. That much more worth it.”

“Pure soul?” You raise a brow, is Jimin really that perfect? You can’t help but scoff.

“He’s a really good person, y/n.” Hobi says softly, “You know you can feel that.”

He’s right. When you first met him and you had that instant recognition, you could feel just how good he is. It hurt even more, considering how things went…

“I have shots!!!!” Jin comes up to you 5 with a tray of shots, “As the kids say, I am trying to get lit!”

“Barely anyone says that anymore dude.” Jungkook frowns, “Which is unfortunate because it… was…lit...”

“Where’s Jimin?” Namjoon asks, grabbing a shot from the tray, he takes a sniff and fake gags.

“Jesus Christ, I told you anything but Tequila, Jin.”

“He’s in the bathroom…” you say, your head falling in your hand on the bar top. You stare at all the bottles on the shelves and wish you could drown yourself in each one.

“I’m back.” Jimin says from beside you and Jungkook.

It looks like he washed his face with cool water, his bangs slightly wet. He’s nervous, you can quite literally feel it…that’s how intense it is.

“Jimin…” you say his name and it sounds and feels so weird on your tongue, his head whips in your direction with wide eyes and he tilts his head to the side.

“Yes?”

You two lock eyes, his gaze is intense. You can’t help but feel like you’re falling for some sort of spell as you stare at him. The pull between you two only grows…you find yourself leaning in closer to his direction before you’re shaking your head, clearing your throat and looking towards the other boys.

“Uh, there’s shots.” You point at the tray Jin is holding. “Let’s hurry up and take them.”

A few hours pass and your group is collectively drunk. Jimin seems to be the only somewhat sober one. Even Yoongi is shimmying to whatever song is playing! You look at Namjoon who is smiling at Jin as they talk to one another and you wave them over.

“I thought human things didn’t effect God’s? Why are you all so drunk?” you laugh, slurring your words.

“Alcohol is alcohol baybey!” Jin throws an arm around your neck as he continues to dance.

“Jin is right.” Namjoon points at him, “Alcohol is the same for us.”

You only nod in response as you eye the bar, Hobi and Tae are dancing with Jimin and he actually looks like he is enjoying himself. You stand from your stool and walk to the dance floor and join them, surprising Jimin.

“Came to hang out with the fun go—guys?!” Hobi moves his body expertly as he speaks.

“Just came to talk to Jimin…” you admit shyly and Hobi and Tae nod in understanding with their eyes wide.

“Good idea.” Tae yells out, “We will keep Yoongi and Jungkook distracted.”

“Thanks…”

“You want to talk to me?” Jimin says over the music, “Me?” he points at himself and you chuckle.

“Yes, you.” You reach down to grab his hand and fuck. You feel like you are being shot with electricity. “Uh,” you quickly drop his hand and gesture for him to follow you. “Come on.”

You and Jimin walk outside the bar, the night is a little chilly, even for May.

“What’s up?” Jimin asks nervously, he sways back and forth on his heels and you can feel his anxiety and it’s making you nauseas.

“Go on a date with me.” You blurt out.

Jimin is silent. His eyes harden as he stares at you and he breathes out roughly.

“You’re drunk.” He states.

“Don’t be difficult.” You begin, “Go on a date with—”

“No.”

“No?”

“You think I can’t feel it?” he asks quietly. “How much you…hate me…?”

You automatically get hit with a wave of guilt. He releases a few shaky breaths and continues. “You are forcing yourself…I don’t want to make you more uncomfortable around me.” He gives you a sad, soft smile and turns around to head back inside, leaving you out in the chilly May air.

“I thought you guys were fucking gods? I did what you told me and he fucking rejected me?!” you slur out angrily. Tae and Hobi exchange awkward glances before smiling for you.

“You have to put a lot of effort. Remember…you are working hard to change his whole mind. It isn’t going to be easy y/n. Even with us helping. We lead you on the right path but ultimately you humans do have free will.” Hobi says quietly, he looks around the bar to make sure no one can hear.

“And like Jungkook said…at this moment, Jimin is set in stone. It’s going to take some convincing.” Tae finishes. He messes with his neck tie some more before he is loosening it all the way. “And you better hurry to talk to him because he is with Yoongi and Jungkook. Who knows what nonsense they are feeding him!”

You look over your shoulder and Tae is right, Yoongi and Jungkook both have an arm draped over Jimin’s shoulders and chatting away. They both have sly smiles as Jimin nods his head in drunken concentration.

“Help me get rid of them…” you roll your eyes as you begin walking towards the God’s of death and their meal.

“You got it!” Hobi yells out brightly. “Let’s go TaeTae.” He grabs on to Tae’s arm and drags him towards the death gods. You follow closely behind eyeing Jimin carefully.

It’s a lovely spring day, the flowers are in bloom and the sky is blue with splashes of pink now that the sun is beginning to set. You finally found your dream job that you start in 2 weeks and an affordable apartment. It’s not thaaat much nicer than your previous place but still, an upgrade nonetheless.

Today you woke up feeling…different. Fuller, more whole. Something completely unexplainable. Once you stepped outside even the world looked more beautiful, colorful, vibrant. Your chest is warm and buzzing and you can’t help but fall in love with the feeling. What is going on?

You walk the streets in your restless city and you feel it. The pull. The pull is practically dragging you around without you totally realizing. You just walk the streets in a daze, the pull becomes more and more intense the closer you get to the main park downtown. You realize you don’t visit this park often which is such a shame because it is beautiful.

You stroll around, feeling yourself being pulled closer and closer to this gigantic tree in the center and then you feel your insides burst. Your eyes land on a figure, you can only see his back but you just know. He must feel it too because he is quickly turning his body around and facing you. His eyes find yours immediately and holy fuck.

You know him. As soon as your eyes meet you feel like you fucking know him. You feel yourself being drawn to him like there is spell you are both under. You don’t stop your feet from moving as you walk closer and closer. He only stares at you with wide eyes until his thick lips curve up into the most beautiful smile you have ever seen. Little did you know, this would be the only time you will see him smile like this.

Love at first sight? He is the most gorgeous human being you have ever had the pleasure of your eyes landing on. His blond hair swept over his forehead, his piercing eyes, his full lips, his entire figure. His beautiful, beautiful smile. He has charmed you. And it doesn’t help that you feel that instant attraction. That recognition and the intense, intense burst of love you feel.

But it is not your love that you are feeling. It is his. Because you feeling love for a someone you don’t actually know is impossible…that this is just some forced, predestined façade. And you are hit with the reality and the truth. You feel your insides turn from a gooey mess to hard. You feel yourself grow angry, you feel hatred grow within you and it must be intense because Jimin must feel it too. The way his smile drops and how his face goes pale. He takes a hesitant step away from you and looks at you with so much question. He feels how you loathe him.

You continue to look at Jimin as you walk closer and closer to him in the bar, Tae and Hobi pulling Yoongi and Jungkook off his body as you make your way over. Even walking closer and closer to him you feel all of your confusing feelings. You hate him yet you are drawn to him.

“Jimin.” You say his name, it comes out rough and breathless and he pinches his brows together.

“Yes?” he asks softly, he walks closer to you as well. “Is everything okay y/n?”

You swallow down your pride as you stare into his eyes. They look sad…empty even.

“Date…” you murmur. Jimin’s sad, empty eyes flash with a sliver a hope before they turn dark again.

“Why?” he finally asks…he walks just a bit closer to you and you step back, feeling suffocated. If he gets any closer you…

“I want to make things right.” You admit between a few breaths, “I want to get to know you.”

You aren’t lying, you do want to make things right. He doesn’t necessarily know what you mean but that’s okay. “I haven’t been the nicest to you but I want to change that.” You mumble.

“You want to know me?” he gulps, “You want to…spend time with me?” you can feel how nervous he is and you can’t help but chuckle just a bit.

“Coffee? We can start there.” You say, feeling your own nerves spiking. Who knew talking to your fucking soulmate could be this hard.

Jimin bites down on his thick bottom lip, his cheeks warming up as they turn a lovely shade of pink.

“Okay….” He says, trying to hide his growing smile “Coffee.”
