IN CHARACTER

CHARACTER NAME: Francine “Frannie” Grace Fabray CHARACTER AGE & DATE OF BIRTH: 38 & January 4th OCCUPATION: Lawyer FACE CLAIM: AJ Cook HOMETOWN & CITY WHERE LIVES NOW: Lima, Ohio & New York, NY SEXUAL ORIENTATION & GENDER: (Closeted) Lesbian & Cis-Female RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Single POSITIVE TRAITS: hardworking , benevolent , adaptive NEGATIVE TRAITS: distant , argumentative , sarcastic CHARACTER QUOTE/LYRIC: “I think almost everyone tries hard to be good and just finds out too late they should have tried softer.“

HEADCANONS

Frannie Fabray was always her parents’ so-called “golden” child. She was the bar upon which her younger sister was measured. Smart, well rounded, the kind of child that never put up too much fuss and did as she was told with ease. An athlete and a scholar, it seemed that whatever she tried, she did well. It was all surface level, however, but she never let it show. Frannie skipped a grade early in her schooling and nearly skipped a second grade going into high school, but chose not to. Either way, she was the head cheerleader, a soccer star, debate team captain, and excelled in every aspect of school and life that she tried, except for relationships. In fact, she seemed completely disinterested in boys and relationships. She was a devout Christian and claimed that she saw no reason in letting boys even begin to be a temptation.

After graduating high school, Frannie left home for college, eventually getting into Harvard’s law school. She did her best to keep up with her family, but her schooling was always her first priority. In fact, the longer she was at college, the less she heard from her family and the less she went home. She was working on her own well being and destroying the parts of herself that her parents had built up.

While in law school, Frannie had a mental breakdown. She’d been struggling massively with everything and it led to her nearly ending up in a psychiatric hospital. She was diagnosed with ADHD and started therapy to help deal with it, as well as the anxiety, depression, and other issues that came up because of it. She also began to get help for an eating disorder that had been plaguing her since her early childhood. It did wonders for her and she managed to pull through her law degree with flying colors.

When it was discovered that her father had cheated, Frannie wasn’t at all surprised. What she was surprised by was her mother actually bothering to divorce him. It was during a conversation with her mother, about Russell, that Frannie learned that Quinn had gotten pregnant and subsequently kicked from the family home, but that Judy had since welcomed her back into the home. It was one of the last conversations Frannie had with her mother for a number of years, angry that the older woman had even let it happen in the first place. She may not have really known her younger sister, but the idea of her parents kicking the girl out for a simple mistake, one that the lack of sex ed and general taboo nature of sex had certainly helped cause.

While Frannie was gaining work experience in the District Attorney’s office, and working on a secondary degree in criminal justice, she met a man by the name of Elijah Griffin. He was the first man she’d ever been remotely interested in, in a romantic way, and they dated for a few years before he proposed and she said yes. They were engaged for nearly five years before they actually decided upon a courthouse wedding. Their relationship was, like much in Frannie’s life, very surface level. They went on dates, held hands, but even after they married they often slept in separate beds in the home they shared. In fact, their first time, and of of their only times, having sex didn’t come until they’d been married for 3 years. They were hoping it would spark something between them, but all it really resulted in was Frannie getting pregnant and later giving birth to their son, Alexander.

It took about a year after Alexander was born before they both decided to try and experiment with their sexuality, given neither had ever had much interest in the opposite sex and their own relationship seemed to be built on trying to conform to heteronormative expectations of parents with dreams of perfect children. The pair entered what was, essentially, a polyamorous relationship, using it as a cover for what they were really doing. About a year later, they both came to the realization that they were gay and agreed to divorce in order to pursue relationships that could actually be beneficial to them both. Frannie got full custody of Alexander, with a promise that he could spend summers with Elijah, and that Elijah was free to visit and have him when he wanted, within reason. Unlike Elijah, Frannie chose to remain in the closet, needing extra time to come to terms with what it meant for her. Being gay had never been in her plans. The plans she’d made so carefully and remade every few years to better fit her ambition.

Around the time Elijah and Frannie opened their relationship, Frannie learned from her mother that Russell hadn’t just cheated, he’d had an entire separate family. With everything going on in her own life, Frannie did nothing with the information provided to her, but did allow for her information to be given to any of her half-siblings looking to connect. When Juliette made contact, Frannie wasn’t sure what to do, but she did her best to be kind and to connect with the younger woman. It, somewhat unfortunately, poked at old wounds Frannie had involving Quinn and the regrets of never having reached out, now that both were adults. It was in learning that both Quinn and Juliette were in New York that Frannie’s plans for her own law firm changed. She had originally planned to open it in Boston, but with her divorce finalized and Elijah’s blessing, she set her sights on New York, instead. As of Frannie’s 38th birthday, she’d moved to New York, successfully started her own firm, and landed her first major case.

CONNECTIONS

Judy Fabray (Mother): Frannie’s relationship with her mother was always one based on her looks and her place in society. It was never something she held close and in time, much like her relationship with her father, began to fall apart. The only time she has spoken to her mother in recent years was when Judy told her about Russell’s other family. Russell Fabray (Father): Frannie’s relationship with her father was one based somewhat entirely on her being perfect. A fragile thing that she slowly learned wasn’t healthy for her and is, in part, why she became more and more distant from her family the longer she was away from home. It almost came as no surprise to Frannie that her father was a cheater and had an entirely separate family. Quinn Fabray (Sister): Frannie and Quinn never really got on. Between the age difference and Frannie being the bar against Quinn was measured, no real relationship was capable of forming and by the time Frannie had completely distanced herself from their parents, any hope of a relationship between them disappeared. Frannie has considered reaching out to Quinn, but still hasn’t done so. Avery & Daniel Fabray (Half-Siblings): Frannie hasn’t actually met them but has no ill will towards them, if anything, she feels bad for them, also having Russell as a father. Juliette Fabray (Half-Sister): When Juliette reached out to Frannie, the older woman did her best to return it in kind. To be open to the possibility of forming some sort of relationship. It’s a work in progress, with neither really opening up too much, but it’s more of a relationship than Frannie has with any of her other family. Elijah Griffin (Ex-Husband): Elijah and Frannie were together for a number of years. He was the only man she ever really held any possible romantic interest in, or so she believed, so she clung to that for as long as she could. A number of years after they were married, they both realized that there was a possibility they weren’t attracted to each other. They both ended up finding out they were gay and when Elijah was ready to come out, they divorced. He is still the only person who knows, for sure, that she’s a lesbian. Alexander Fabray-Griffin (Son): Alexander is the only person Frannie would ever give up her career for. He is her entire world and as much as she hates that he was born into a family that ultimately couldn’t stay together, she doesn’t regret having him. He is the best parts of both her and Elijah and all she really hopes is that she raises him in such a way that he never has to do the kind of recovering from his childhood the way she did.

Voltron Legendary Defender NYCC 18' Panel Recap

Ahhh okay here’s the recap post I promised! It took a little while to transcribe all the individual videos I had (I think almost 11 in the end? lol). So, normally I’m not a morning person at all, but as soon as I saw NYCC announce the Hammerstein panel and realizing this might very well be the last VLD panel ever, you can betcha that I got up at the crack of dawn to get my ass down to Hammerstein this morning pfftt. I got there around 9ish, and while there was already a line it moved fairly quickly after a quick bag check. Since I was by myself, I managed to get a pretty decent seat, actually much than I anticipated, located in the early middle-ish of the ground floor seating.

The panel began with the moderator (I forgot his name, sorry mod! D:) with introducing the cast and crew: Joaquim Dos Santos & Lauren Montgomery (Executive Producers), Josh Hamilton (Story Editor), and the VA’s for Allura (Kimberly Brooks), Pidge (Bex Taylor-Klaus), Shiro (Josh Keaton), and Lance (Jeremy Shada). Keith’s VA (Steven Yeun) didn’t make it, but I’m assuming maybe this was because he had prior commitments to promote BURNING at the New York Film Festival this weekend?

Joaquim and Lauren started off the panel regarding the Shiro and Adam storyline in S7, and some “understandably hurt reactions to it." Joaquim stated that they emphasize with everyone’s reactions and "really do feel for you,” while Lauren added: “so we clearly can’t change what’s already happened, but this experience has stirred conversation about what meaningful representation is, and we hope that this leads to better representation in the future.”

VLD Show Retrospective & General Fan Appreciation

Lauren then changed gears to take a moment to say: "how proud we are of our crew who has worked so hard, and our amazing cast who has bought so much life to these characters over these past four years," and a "huge thank you to all of the fans who have just showered us with so much love and support."

Joaquin added that they wanted "our final New York Comic Con, really our final con of the entire series to be a celebration of everyone's hard work. And a really awesome look back at what came before this and an awesome look forward to our final season, of a show that we're so proud to be a part of, and had you guys along for the ride."

The moderator asked what it's been like throughout the years to get to this specific part (season 8) and Joaquim said: "It's amazing for us. It's grown every single year, you guys [the crowd] is the best. It's been an absolute honor working on the show."

Josh H. (VLD's Story Editor) also noted: "It's weird being in the office alone, maybe five of us writers in one room," and they question what will or will not work story-wise, but "then you come to Comic Con and people start to cheer because they love a moment so much."

"It's so different when you're alone by yourself as a writer, and then when you're with an awesome crowd of people. It invigorates you."

Josh K. (Shiro's VA) added that it's been amazing for him to meet and work with the cast, but specifically highlighted his appreciation for seeing all the "incredible talent that's been peppered throughout the fandom.

Specifically emphasizing how the cast and crew "see so many amazing cosplay, so much incredible art, videos, everything. You guys [the fans] really dove into this show and we love it. We're just as much fans as all of you, and we love sharing the show with all of you. It's been a fantastic experience and I'm sad it's coming to an end."

Jeremy (Lance's VA) chimed in: "You don't to be part of many shows like Voltron in your career, so it's been a blessing to be a part of this show. Everybody here puts in so much hard work into their craft and what they do, but you never know what's going to do well or not, and this show DEFINITELY did very, very well." And this was because of the fans, particularly highlighting the passion and dedication, and how "it means the world to us."

Jeremy then pointed out this was a crowd where there actually seemed to be more cosplayers than non-cosplayers, prompting Josh K. to note: "I love going to these cons and looking at everyone cosplaying, and pretending in my head that Voltron is real and now I'm at Space Mall."

Bex (Pidge's VA) chimed in to say that she would make things a little more selfish since: "I've always wanted to play a cartoon character so this was very literally a dream come true for me." But not only to play a cartoon character, but to play a powerful female warrior."

Bex additionally noted how amazing how that's what's resonated most is "for young kids to see themselves in Pidge and Allura. It's just been the most heartwarming experience."

Kimberly (Allura's VA) then spoke to the experience among the cast and crew and how they've become good friends with one another, and how it's "bittersweet that this is our last convention, but it's been amazing."

Season 7 Retrospective (General Storytelling Approach & the VA's Favorite Moments)

Josh H. started off that: "S7 was meant to be putting our paladins at a disadvantage."

So the writers came up with the concept of a 3 year timeskip and "all these stories about going home, and Hunk with his family kind of sprung up naturally from that."

"There's also a story about Allura. It's kinda subtle, but Allura lost Altea, and now she has a chance to redeem herself and help save Earth."

"A lot of these personal moments start to pop up when we got this new angle, so starting off with this 3 year time gap really helped us."

Joaquim noted it was cool seeing the fan buildup with getting the paladins back home to their families, and "knowing for us, from a story perspective that it was coming down the line, and seeing everything get to that fever pitch point. It was a really great payoff to see it all play out."

Lauren switched gears to comment on the "insane logistics" of the whole big Galra attack at the end. They had some initial trouble figuring out how the Zaiforge cannons were supposed to work.

Josh H. chimed in to note that Joaquim kept coming to the writers room to say that something needed to be different about this Galra attack, so he and Mitch Iverson would kind of go on walks and try to figure out how the Zaiforge cannons worked.

While Lauren noted that the logistics was a "massive headache, they were still pretty happy with how it turned out since "it was pretty suspenseful, never a dull moment."

Josh H. added that plot-wise, he liked how the storytelling perspective got to stay on Earth. "We knew that there were going to be seven, Earth-centric episodes," so that gave a lot of time to "meet some new people and come up with MFE pilots."

The writers really enjoyed cracking who the MFE pilots were individually, particularly with the way that Leifsdottir thinks and speaks, so "having this time to stay in one place and time was really fun."

Jeremy noted that they were really happy to have AJ LoCascio (Lotor's VA) still stick around and voice James Griffin in S7.

Joaquim mentioned that for a show of this nature, with all the focus on action-adventure and big explosions and giant robots, it was unusual to "take two episodes and just focus on the logistics on what's going back on Earth while madness is happening. Essentially you had all these meetings going on for what's ostensibly a kid's show."

In terms of trying to find a fine balance between the Earth storyline and Paladin storyline, Lauren and Jaoquim did wonder whether they could spend that much time on Earth without "seeing Voltron punch something" (ROFL) but they knew it was the right decision as they were reading the scripts when they came in, and it just felt right, and "that's ultimately been a testament to the show. Just going with your gut."

Favorite, Standout Moments of Season 7

Bex noted that her favorite episodes of S7 were the Earth-centric ones where "we got to experience what was happening on Earth while we [the paladins] were gone. It was everything I got to see and nothing I got to see in the scripts since we weren't there."

Kimberly noted that the Hunk love was amazing, since he's so "lovable, and we got to see where he was inspired to cook and do all the things that he does, and why he's such a cool guy."

Josh K. added that Hunk really proved himself as the heart of the team.

Jeremy noted that the VA's knew that the Atlas was going to be a thing through the scripts, but they weren't aware of what it actually looked like beforehand.

Bex humorously chimed in to offer that "Atlas is thiccc. I needs that workout routine, okay?" (omfg)

Jeremy agreed that it has a "nice big booty. It's a thick robot." (And at that point, everyone in the audience started wheezing, shrieking, or cackling).

Josh K. added that the day the episode aired, there was a group chat among the VA's where someone just texted "Atlas is thiccc" and Bex admitted that she had this saved to her Tweetdeck for a longgg time.

Josh K. admitted that while he's probably biased, this was still his favorite episode, since Josh wanted Shiro to have everything that he deserves, and he loved how "everything was falling apart and everyone was looking for Shiro to lead."

And in terms of the words and the stage direction, Josh remembered just even reading the script just made him swell up with pride for Shiro and think: "This is amazing. Everybody that didn't believe him in the Garrison came back, those that strapped him to a gunnery, and didn't want to listen to him about Voltron is now looking at him to save them."

Bex added the part where Coran calls Shiro 'Captain' for the first time was one of those moments.

And when Shiro finally makes that connection and is able to transform the ship, Josh knew that while this moment was going to happen, he still had no idea how the Atlas transformation was going to look like beforehand.

Josh fondly recalled that he was hoping to see his wife's reaction to the Atlas transformation for the first time, but he missed her whole reaction since he himself couldn't take his eyes off the scene.

Entire Show Retrospective: Favorite Moments and Why

Jeremy’s Pick (Lance and Keith rescuing Shiro in ep 1): "It's special to me, because I think this may have been one of my audition scenes, but it was really one of the first scenes where you get to see Lance's personality and I love these little moments where he's just very kinda funny and such a goofball, but he still has this goal and is a loyal person. So, when we were recording this scene, I thought: 'Ok I get the character now and this sets the tone for what I wanna do with his character."

Bex’s Pick (Pidge confessing her true identity as a girl): "I love this part. This was something that was in the very beginning not in the audition side, but the character breakdown of Pidge's masquerade as a boy in order to find her family. And who doesn't want to play Mulan? So, it was something that I was waiting for and I remember going back and forth on whether this scene was going to happen in episode 4 or 7. It was really exciting when we got to that part of the script and how we were doing this, and I loved how easy it is."

Josh K's Pick (Shiro rescues Slav): "The thing we know about Shiro, at least in the beginning, is that it seems like there's nothing wrong with him. He seems perfect, he can do no wrong, he's a nice guy, and can kick butt. So sometimes you think, 'can he do no wrong? What's his deal?' and in S2, Shiro meets somebody named Slav and it's once meeting Slav, you start to see that Shiro is not completely perfect. Shiro can get upset, and there definitely is a crack in that paladin armor.”

Josh H's Pick (The 'Slipperies' Scene): "Tim Hendrick came up with the concept of the slipperies as Coran sweating too much and slipping everywhere. Everytime I watch this scene I still legitimately laugh even though the script went through several rewrites."

Kimberly's Pick (Allura and Coran and the milkshake origin): "I think the clip is self-explanatory in terms of our reaction to it."

Lauren’s Pick (When the Paladins hoot fun-sentry into space): "So my clip isn't any moment in the series, but a moment that embodies what our crew does when it comes together, and everybody brings their own thing to it, so it culminates into something so much more."

How Much of the VA's are like their Actual Characters

Josh K. noted that back in 2014, he had just become an actual dad, so he made that weird transition from "living for yourself to having a life were you hold someone else's life in your hands.

”So, he drew a lot of Shiro's "dedication to his team from that feeling. That's really where it all came from.”

While he confesses to generally being more like Lance in real life, still with age and parenting, Josh admits that he's become more of that "space dad type of guy, having to wrangle kids and all that."

Likewise, he's always liked telling bad dad jokes and now revels in still being able to tell them as an actual dad.

Bex admits that for her, she feels that "Pidge is so powerful in her own way and so confident, which is so rare for someone so young." So, while Bex isn't sure if she's entirely become the Pidge that she wants to be, but she's getting there.

Kimberly notes that she strives to be like Allura (Jeremy interrupted to say that Kimberly is a queen and has gotten the queenly wave down).

What Kimberly finds appealing about Allura is that she's a flawed character, but also beautiful, generous, smart, and strong - "these are all things I strive to be, and I feel like I'm becoming more and more like Allura as the show progresses."

Kimberly also added that Allura is her favorite character that she's ever had the pleasure to voice. Even after recording many, many sessions, Kimberly still had no idea what Allura physically looked like, so the first time she was shown the character concept artwork, Kimberly was "so choked up and blown away," since she had no idea what her skin tone was going to be and so on.

Jeremy confesses that he kind of leans into Lance's personality in real life, but in a joking manner since he likes making people laugh. He finds Lance to be such a goofball and that 'adorkable' type of person, and "that's definitely me in real life, but Lance also has all that sensitive loyal side to him which I have and relate to as well."

"He's fun to play, but while Lance tries hard to be very flirty at times, I'm not really like that way. Maybe with my girlfriend, I'll try to say flirty jokes and she'll just laugh and tell me to keep trying."

The Existence of the Voltron Scratch Reel

Lauren explained the concept of a scratch reel where in between the storyboarding, animating, and voice acting process, sometimes they realize that they might need some additional lines, maybe lines get condensed, change names, and so on.

But they don't always have time to get the actors back in, so "a lot of times, it falls upon one of us to put in some temporary dialogue and fill that space, they animate to it, and then we get the animation back and the actors replace the dialogue and it sounds great. But in the meantime, we get to watch some ridiculously horrible acting on behalf of the entire staff - editors, assistants, etc."

Bex noted: "It's always breaks my heart a little to dub over the scratch tracks, because it's so beautiful," while Josh added that he'd love to see an episode just entirely of scratch tracks."

Joaquim chimed in that they had two seasons of the 'Scratchy Awards,' where they handed out staff awards for the best scratch tracks produced (hahaha), where Mitch Iverson spraypainted a bunch of backscratchers with 'Scratchy' Awards' on it.

After they aired the scratch reel, Josh H. noted that there are still some times where scratch ends up being in-screen and it's an unexpected surprise when they're reviewing the editing process.

The most popular scratch reel choice among the VA's is Director Steve Ahn, who had a lot of the 'Ok, calm down' scratch scenes, and Steve Yeun once asked: "Could I get that as my ringtone?"

Jeremy said his favorite parts of the scratch reel were when half the scene were the actual VA lines, and then it was one non-VA word.

Benjamin Kaltenecker did all of the 'moo' sounds for Kaltenecker.

Josh K. noted that Joaquim voices a pretty decent Shiro, and "that's why you didn't see any scratch scenes of that because it's not bad."

Bex noted that she loved it when Lauren had to voice some of the Galra men for the scratch scenes.

Lauren noted that most of the scratch scenes were recorded late at night and the cast & crew weren't really fighting to do a scratch scene, and "we're not usually fighting to voice a character, but it's more like 'who has to do it now? Who hasn't done it in awhile??’

“While we're in shame of our bad acting...poor Rhys [Coran's VA] had to sit through and be insulted since nobody can actually pull off Coran's accent.” Though, Joaquim pointed out that Jeremy does a decent Coran impression which he then demonstrated for the crowd.

Joaquim added: "The hardest thing to do is to record scratch in the booth and it's played back to the actual VA's and we can't hear them because their mics are off, but they're pantomiming the loudest laughter."

Kimberly reassured that the VA's loved hearing the crew's voices for the scratch reel.

Josh K. added that "it's like hearing your friends do an impression of you and makes ADR sessions fun, since they can be so technical at times. It's like getting to watch bloopers."

Getting Some of the Awesome Voltron Guest Stars & Fun VA Recording Moments

Joaquim & Lauren: "We bat around some ideas internally, and couldn't believe when the casting directors were on board with some of our ideas: like getting Vince Shlomi or the ShamWow guy to voice the knife store owner in the Space Mall."

The show's head of casting, Anya's eyes light up this suggestion, and it was kind of a celebrity moment when he came in to record.

Weird Al Yankovic was a fixture of Lauren's childhood, and it certainly helped having a voice director legend like Andrea Romano to fall back on.

At one point, they had Rhys Darby (Coran) and Paul Rubin sort of 'battling it out in the Space Mall haggling sequence' and it was like 'the Lake House of back-and-forth, like they were on two astral planes' but when it came together, it was 'magical.'

Since Nolan North voiced both Sam Holt and Commander Iverson, there were literally scenes where he was just literally talking to himself, and Lauren noted that "the guy's such a professional that he does things straight through instead."

Lauren also noted that Cree Summers is one of those VA's who will sideline an entire session, since she's such a hilarious, big personality.

Jeremy and the other VA's said that recording with the cast was always the highlight of his week. But one of the coolest things was when they had the entire, locked-in VA cast together for the first time, and they realized that they had picked the right people.

"I know I'm doing my job right in the recording booth when I'm making my cast mates laugh."

Sometimes the cast would get into fun side conversations catching up that Andrea (the voice director) had to interrupt and remind them that: 'We're literally in a take right now and you're having a full conversation. You can catch up later.'

Bex once freaked out Josh K. and AJ since they were in the middle of a conversation and they didn't hear the sound beeps, but Bex did and suddenly yelled 'GO!'

Season 8 Plot Teasers

Lauren: "Basically our paladins have freed Earth from Galra rule and all that's left to kind of finish the job and free all the universe."

Joaquim: "We do have this one character that you might have noticed in a clip that becomes pretty pivotal, and she's been gone for a bit..." (Which presumably was Hagger/Honerva since the S8 was then aired)

Fun Misc. Show Tidbits

Bex apparently came to Pidge's audition in a Batman onsie.

During the 'Slipperies scene', the little side panels of Coran's pants come apart and flap like little tails. This wasn't something that was originally in the design, but the animators added it.

The creators once had an original design where Coran had a tail, and Lauren noted "it was super cute."

Jeremy thought the whole Shiro clone saga was awesome, and he specifically loved the Black Paladins episode.

Lauren and Joaquim admitted that they were even shocked by that storyline since they had a very different storyline at first - "that's the interesting thing about the creative process, since you'll get notes and have to make some changes, but it then takes you to really unexpected places and make for some unique and interesting storylines."

There wasn't time for a Q&A portion, and the panel ended with the Season 8 teaser/first look. Though, I'd have to say that it was still definitely fun watching the teaser with such a large crowd of fans, and basically shrieking and gasping together at different intervals hahaha.

With the NFL draft beginning tonight I think it’s fitting to take a deeper look into the Vikings’ free agency moves and some things they may need to address during the draft. But before we get into that let’s recap the major moves for the Vikings thus far. Starting with probably the most notable move and them trading Pro Bowl receiver Stefon Diggs, though they did recoup some good value in return securing Buffalo’s 1st, 5th and 6th rd picks in this year’s draft and a 4th rd pick for next year’s draft. That definitely puts them in the receiver market for the draft or by way of trade, although they did sign free agent Tajaé Sharpe from the Tennessee Titans. Sharpe’s career hasn’t been anything special up to this point but has shown potential with 92 career catches for 1,167 yards and eight touchdowns in three seasons (missed all of 2017 due to foot injury).

The Vikings also lost their top three cornerbacks after cutting Xavier Rhodes, who’s struggled the past few seasons, and losing Mackensie Alexander and Trae Waynes to the Bengals in free agency. This puts them in a tough spot at corner and will for sure need to reinforce that position through the draft. The Vikings also cut nose tackle Linval Joseph, who I personally was a fan of but the team felt they needed to move in another direction. They were able to fill the void Joseph left by signing free agent nose tackle Michael Pierce from the Baltimore Ravens. The Vikings have also lost defensive end Everson Griffin who was a team captain and has been a starter the past several seasons, which makes that another position we could see possibly addressed in the draft. They also definitely need to address the o-line. (There were other moves but these were the most significant coming into the draft.)

However, the Vikings are in a nice position to be able to address all their needs within the first three rounds, which would be extremely ideal. It’s very possible to find difference makers later in the draft but those first three rounds are where you’d expect the most instant impact players to fall. Minnesota holds five picks in the first three rounds, with two in the first (22 and 25), one in the second (58), and two thirds (89 and 105). As things were unfolding earlier in free agency the team’s draft plans seemed very clear but over the course of the last few days they’ve gotten a little murkier. That’s because of the trades the team has been linked to for players like Redskins’ left tackle Trent Williams and Browns’ receiver Odell Beckham Jr. If one (or both) of these trades did take place it’d fill a major need for the team, with a pro bowl caliber player at that. It would cost them a pick or two though so the entire complexion of their draft would change.

But let’s say those trades don’t take place. I’d like to see the Vikings address the needs at cornerback and offensive line in the first round. The top two corners (Jeff Okudah and CJ Henderson) will definitely be gone by the time the Vikings are up to pick. So the pick would be one of the tier two corners (Jeff Gladney, Jaylon Johnson, Kristian Fulton, or AJ Terrell). If the Vikings did decide to go receiver round one I’d be alright with someone like Denzel Mims, Justin Jefferson, or Jalen Reagor. But, because of how many good receivers there are in this draft I place a lot more importance in drafting a corner and offensive linemen in round one. I also wouldn’t be surprised at all if they decided to trade one of those two first rounders to stack up on some second round picks. There will be a lot of great players available in the second round. So it may make more sense to stack the picks rather than reaching for a player that they’d be able to get in the second round.

One player I’d love to see Minnesota take, whether in the first round or if they traded up in the second, is Antoine Winfield Jr. The DB from the University of Minnesota is a very versatile option in the secondary and is very close to home for the Vikings. Not only did he play for the University of Minnesota but his father played for the Vikings 2004-2012. He’d work great as a slot corner in the nickel package and give Coach Mike Zimmer lots of options in his defense.

We’ll see how this all plays out but I think tonight should be interesting for the Vikings. While I doubt they’ll do this they could possibly trade up in the first. They could also stay and pick or trade out the first round. They really have a lot of options in their spots and GM Rick Spielman has proven to be pretty good at navigating the draft.

I’ll be back after round one with a recap, analysis and expectations for day two. Stay tuned.

Lavender, orange, and canary?

SHIT YEAH I CAN TALK ABOUT MUSIC FOREVER HOPE YOU’RE READY FOR A VERY INCOMPATIBLE MIX OF SONGS AND SCATTERSHOT EXPLANATIONS. I EVEN MADE YOUTUBE PLAYLISTS. I PUT IT UNDER A CUT BECAUSE IT GOT LONG AND I RESPECT PEOPLE’S TIMELINES TOO MUCH TO DO THAT DO YOU GUYS.

If you just want the playlists but not the explanations:

Lavender

Orange

Canary

lavender: songs you connect to

I’d like to entitle this Playlist “Songs that have the ability to make me cry without warning if they come on”

Setting Sail, Coming Home - Darren Korb - I associate this song with the death of a friend (COMING OUT STRONG HERE) so that might be unfair but I can and have put this song on for hours and just cry/sing. It’s so good.

This Year - The Mountain Goats - I know it’s cliche to make this your anthem but THIS IS MY MOTHERFUCKING FIGHT SONG. I cannot BEGIN to tell you how many hard times I’ve gotten through muttering “I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me.”

Stronger Than You - Aivi & Surasshu & Estelle - THE GAY ANTHEM I DIDN’T KNOW I NEEDED UNTIL IT HAPPENED AND NOW I CANNOT GET THROUGH A DAY WITHOUT IT.

Six Days at the Bottom of the Ocean - Explosions in the Sky - I remember the first time i heard this song, it felt like something was melting in me. Like, something that had frozen over was warming up for the very first time in a long time.

Exile Vilify - The National - I love this song for every bit of it, but the line “No you’re thinking too fast / You’re like marbles on glass” is what really sells it because I can’t think of a better way to explain what my brain feels like when I’m in the middle of an anxiety attack.

Brand New Colony - The Postal Service - This is sappy as fuck but my long time SO who doesn’t have a head for music or lyrics managed to memorize the lyrics of this song (and I cannot stress how hard that is for him, he literally does not hear music or lyrics the same way I do) and quoted them to me on a date once. It was adorable, I think of it every time I hear it.

We Never Change - Coldplay - I legit don’t know what it is about this song, I think it’s the repetition of “I want to live life and always be true” because yeah big mood.

Starts With One - Shiny Toy Guns - This whole fucking album was there for me when my depression and anxiety got to it’s absolute worst. Even though the content of the song is sad, singing it out with full force always made me feel better.

Here Comes a Thought - Aivi & Surasshu, Estelle, & AJ Michalka - Steven Universe of course was able to give me a mindfulness song that best describes the feelings of intrusive thoughts and ALSO how to deal with them and I cry EVERY GODDAMN TIME.

Never Quite Free - The Mountain Goats - This is a great song about coping with trauma and how it stays with you, even when you’re “over” it. It’s not happy, but I take comfort in it because it reminds me that it’s okay to not be okay, and that that’s not my fault when something causes me to relapse.

Everything’s Alright - Laura Shigihara - Another song about dealing with bad things and finding comfort in other people. I loved this song since the first time I heard it. Played the game it came (To the Moon) from like two years later and yeah, it’s a gut punch.

Eight Melodies - Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka - Earthbound means a lot to me. The Sanctuaries and the Eight Melodies mean a lot to me too. I always have to take a minute for a good cry when I’m playing this game and this part happens.

Undertale - Toby Fox - I remember exactly how I felt when I walked down the long hallway in Undertale and this song started playing for the first time. It was so out of place from the rest of the soundtrack stylistically, but absolutely perfect. I remember thinking “this game is changing me.” I played Undertale REALLY early, before the hype spoiled it for everyone, and this was the moment I realized I was going to be a different person after playing it.

King and Lionheart - Of Monsters and Men - OKAY THIS SONG HAS ONLY BEEN IN MY LIFE FOR TWO WEEKS AND IT’S ALREADY MADE ME CRY UPWARDS OF A TRILLION TIMES SO YEAH. Just like, fuck me up. Seriously. Songs about being there for people you love and holding hands in the endtimes just… UGH.

orange: songs you want other people to associate with you

I call this playlist “BIG MOOD”

Die Anywhere Else - Alec Holowka & Scott Benson (Cover by Mandopony) - I have a weakness for a good riff and a catchy chorus and also anyone who knows me knows the chorus is BIG MOOD HOLY SHIT I WANT TO DIE ANYWHERE BUT HERE.

Live and Learn - Crush 40 - Look I like garbage and I need everyone who knows me to understand that sometimes I unironically listen to butt rock from sonic games. If you can’t accept that about me we can’t be friends.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - Daft Punk - I like to think I’m including this song because of it’s connotations about improving yourself and working towards being a better you but no it’s just robots I love robots.

Dog Days are Over - Florence + The Machine - I literally listen to this song every morning. It’s my alarm clock.

No Dogs on the Moon - Griffin McElroy - MY AESTHETIC. Seriously this song is just me. Catchy off-sync tune with samples of dogs autotuned to nonsense and absolute cuteness. This is me in song form.

What Would Captain Picard Do? - Hank Green - I may or may not quote this song unironically to people when I make decisions about important things.

Saturn Valley Caverns - Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka - There’s a tumblr post somewhere about that one friend who makes you listen to shitty ambient cave music from Earthbound on vinyl… I am that friend.

Ready Steady Go! - L’Arc~en~Ciel - LOOK THIS SONG GOT ME THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL AND I COULDN’T FIND A GOOD QUALITY FULL VERSION BUT THAT’S OKAY THE FMA CUT IS PRETTY GOOD CUT.

Love Today - Mika - I think if I wanted people to know one thing it’s that I try my best to love everyone and this song works really good for capturing that mood.

Float On - Modest Mouse - I want to be this chill. A lot of people think I am this chill. I am not. I wish i WAS THO.

Foreign Object - The Mountain Goats - Everyone should know my favorite Mountain Goats song is the one about the guy getting stabbed in the face with a knife because why wouldn’t it be.

Shy Guy’s Toybox - Yuka Tsujiyoko - This is what the inside of my brain feels like on a good day.

*~ASTERISK~ - Orange Range - I guess this song is from Bleach but I never watched Bleach. I heard this song one time and I was like “THAT. I WANT TO BE THE WAY THAT SONG MAKES ME FEEL.” So yeah. I want to be the way this song makes me feel.

Computer Music - she - sometimes I am basically a shitpost generating robot and people know this and love this about me therefore this song best expresses my love as a computer who loves music.

Pursuing My True Self - Shoji Meguro - Besides the fact that this is from Persona 4 and everyone needs to know I love Persona 4, I’ve taken on this song on as a personal creed because it makes me want to fucking jump kick the moon.

Movin’ Right Along - The Muppets (cover by Alkaline Trio) - Another chill song about going with the flow that I wish I was and i TRY SO HARD TO BE also I love the Muppets and this cover fucking rocks.

Love Like You - Rebecca Sugar - I am trash for this song it just fucks me right up.

canary:songs to listen to on a sunny day

Also known as “PUMPED UP KICKS THAT MAKE ME WANT TO PUNCH THE SUN”.

I’m not gonna give individual explanations for these ones, but these are songs that make me feel energized and ready to take on the world, which I need when it’s sunny because I hate the sun and want to die. Also I associate sun with summer, and summer reminds me of being at home and listening to KROQ (local radio station) with my dad. A lot of these are the kinds of songs that we’d listen to.

I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor - Arctic Monkeys

Think I’m in Love - Beck

Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked - Cage the Elephant

World Go Boom - DJ Earworm

Cosmic Love - Florence + The Machine

These Days - Foo Fighters

Don’t Stop (Color on the Walls) - Foster the People

Holy Touch - Foxy Shazam

In This City - Iglu & Hartly

Are You Gonna be my Girl? - Jet

Big Casino - Jimmy Eat World

Bad Romance - Lady Gaga

No Children - The Mountain Goats

I will Wait - Mumford and Sons

Savior - Rise Against

Cherry Bomb - The Runaways

Far Behind - Social Distortion

Reptilla - The Strokes

Everything is AWESOME!!! - Tegan and Sara

It’s Getting Boring By the Sea - Blood Red Shoes

THAT WAS FUN BUT I SPENT WAY TOO MUCH TIME ON IT.
