Platonic!Yan batfam with young adult reader. Part 3
[Part 2]
Note: Reader is 18-22 years old. Gn reader

Focus on Jason
---
You never liked working the night shift, the walk home was always creepy. A constant impending doom on your shoulder. Sure lately you had the Bats watching you, but tonight they seemed to be missing. You debated on calling a taxi yet you knew at night alone a taxi could be more dangerous then walking. At least when you walk if need be you can try and run.
You passed by a store with TVs in the windows, the news on several of the screens warning of an escape at Arkham. No wonder the bats were missing and the street was empty. You pulled out and gripped the taser your friend had given you tightly in your hand. It was a high voltage one, strong enough to drop a large man, maybe even killer croc the issue was you had to be close by. Still the protection or the hint of it soothed some of your nerves as you sprinted home.
Coming up to your apartment door and without incident had you nearly crying in relief. You began to unlock your door quickly when you felt a hand on your shoulder. It was definitely the paranoia from the news and the late night that made you whip around and jab the taser into whoever it was.
They dropped like a sack of wet flour to your feet unconscious, and you realized who you just tazed. "Oh God...oh God! I just tazed the Redhood, oh fuck oh fuck..." So much for getting home without incident.
Jason came to a faded tingling in his limbs and... his mask on his face? He sat up ready to go on the attack until he saw you. Then he remembered you had tazed him. His sweet little sibling had *tazed* him. He didn't know if he should be proud or worried you had a taser so strong.
You were asleep on the old recliner while he had been laid on the sofa. He recognized some aches, you must have dragged him in. He was impressed you managed to move him on your own. But he'd have to talk to you about not bringing strays into the house. This time it was him but what if it hadn't been him?
Jason groaned because he knew the family would see this whole incident. If not from his mask footage, then from the many cameras Replacement had placed around the apartment and outside it. "Fuck..." He was never going to hear the end of it.
At the sound of a foreign voice you jolted awake and looked at him scared. "Please don't be mad?" Your voice was small, and if he hadn't been paying attention to you he would have missed it.
"Normally folks start with a sorry. But I'll let it slide this time." He was doing his best not to show his softness to you. He wanted to scoup you up and praise you for defending yourself. But another part of him *hated* the fact you had had to do it at all.
"I'm sorry! I... I saw the news about the Arkham break out on the way home and when someone...you touched me I panicked."
He couldn't tell if you were feeling guilty for hurting him or scared he'd hurt you in return. "You got good reaction time kid. What the fuck were you doing out though?" Most employers had safe rooms or an office in the back that employees could hide in during a break out. Usually it was just an at night situation since the day time was usually safe to travel.
"I had to get home. I didn't know about the break out until halfway home, and I was already closer to home than work. It was smarter for me to run home than double back." It was a logical choice on your end, but he still didn't like it.
"Normally I'd be pissed at this," No he wouldn't have not with them his baby sibling. "But given the situation and the fact you brought me inside and left my helmet on I'll let it slide."
He knew he didn't have the usual clean record the bat brood had. Publicly, he was an anti-hero and crime lord. Sure, he hadn't killed anyone recently, but the civilians were always wary because they knew it was on the table for him. It wasn't. He was *trying* to be better, but most didn't see it that way.
"Really?" The hopeful and pathetic look on your face made him chuckle. An action that he knew with the voice modulator was intimidating.
"Really. I'm not even going to tell you to be more careful next time. You need reactions like that in Gotham." They didn't need them, not much longer. The family would keep them safe. He wouldn't fail them like the family had him. In fact... "But, since I *am* the injured party. You're going to let me stay here tonight."
"What? Shouldn't you be out fighting?" You almost seemed desperate to get him out. That was okay he knew you were just scared and shaken from tonight's events.
"That taser did a bit more damage than I expected. I go out now, I would be a liability." That was a lie not that he'd ever let you find that out. "Besides wouldn't it be better to have someone here with you?" He knew you were scared, more scared of the rogues than him.
"But... fine! You get the sofa tonight." You tried so hard to keep some semblance of control in this, that was cute.
"You got it, Sparky." He laughed as you bristled at the nickname. He'd keep you safe, and even if Bruce wanted to, Jason would be free from any scolding. After all, he had been tasked with playing gaurd tonight, from a distance... but this was far more effective. He wouldn't let you die, not like he had, Jason would burn Gotham before he let that happen.

Look I just had to get this out of my system man
I keep on thinking about what kind of theoretical hoops Crocodad would have to jump through to happen in canon and I figured being able to actually visualize the known timeline would help
And that's what this post is about. We have a visual of the timeline. Now let us think about it a whole lot.
Minor notes about the timeline graph; Luffy's birthday is on May 5th and Croc's is on September 5th, so both would get a +1 to their ages by the end of this year in the timeline. On this note, if I am not mistaken, the year Luffy was born Crocodile would've been 27 at the time of his birth and would then turn 28 a few months later. But this is assuming Crocodile is already, at this moment, 46 years old (as opposed to if he was only turning 46 this year in which case he would actually be 45 at this moment, which would further mean he would've been 26 at the time of Luffy's birth and would've turned 27. It's slightly hard to tell what the case is exactly since we don't really get those exact timestamps during the actual story, but I think he's supposed to be 46 turning 47, and that's the assumption this post is written with). (Further sidenote, according the Vivre Card Databooks (appearently), the Strawhats got to Whiskey Peak in February and by late March had obtained Thousand Sunny. Thing is that Luffy was implied to have left on his adventure around his 17th birthday, which would mean that 8-9 months would've passed between Luffy setting out and arriving at Whiskey Peak, and he would've been a few months away from turning 18 already. Which, like, is plausible, but I'm personally willing to ignore this trivia information, not gonna fucking lie)
Anyways, to recap the timeline
We don't know
When Crocodile set out to become a pirate; since he was present at Roger's execution I think the implication would be that he would've set out soon after that, at age 22, but it's entirely possible he might've already been a no-name pirate before that or he could've set out a few years after the execution
When he met Ivankov and if their meeting was like a one-and-done thing and that they never saw each other again until Impel Down, or if that's just when they first got to know each other. (In Iva's own words (in Japanese), they knew Crocodile "during the era when he was still considdered a rookie")
When he got humbled by Whitebeard; it was "soon after" he became a Shichibukai (in Oda's words), but we can't tell if that was like 2 days or 10 months after becoming a Shichibukai
What we do know is that
Crocodile made a name for himself fast "much like Luffy" (in Oda's words); you could interpret that as him causing just a ton of chaos within like a year of entering the Grand Line
He rose to fame and became a Shichibukai in the first half of his 20's (in Oda's words), so before he turned 25?
He supposedly "calmed down" / "went quiet" (again, in Oda's words) for an unknown period of time
By the time he was 30 he was appearing on the news for his heroics; we don't know when he started appearing on the news, just that by this point he was appearing on the news
So I believe the implication is that Crocodile set out on his adventure between the ages of 21-24. If you wanted to push the Crocodad angle, you might want to push it to that 24 (since his Rookie Adventure happened so fast), which would also be around the time of the Revolutionary Army's founding. And while it is entirely plausible Crocodile could've had his ass kicked by Whitebeard VERY soon after his promotion, or it could've been around the time he was like 25-26, if you really wanted to push it for the Crocodad angle. And indeed, we don't know how Crocodile and Iva-chan knew each other. The implication I think is that he transitioned before he rose to fame as a rookie, but he could've just befriended Iva-chan at the time and gotten more well acquainted with the Revolutionaries after his ass kicking and transitioned later. It would just push the "knew him in the era he was considdered a rookie" to an absolute limit, but it would be technically true, just. Kinda pushing it.
And indeed, the Problem Point; Crocodile would've transitioned at age 27 after having Luffy, already a Shichibukai, a public-ish figure.
So if you wanted Crocodad to be canon, either
A) Crocodile being trans isn't a secret, it's something else that Iva-chan tried to blackmail him with B) Crocodile being trans is a secret, so how the fuck did he keep it if he transitioned at 27
If A); Indeed, if there was a scandal about a Shichibukai suddenly transitioning, it would've been like 17-19 years ago. Arguably that would not be something worth bringing up by anyone anymore considdering he had spent at least the past 14 years (pre-timeskip) being a hero to the masses, followed by his warcrimes. Like, it'd be old news. Which would just leave us wondering what the hell the "weakness" Iva-chan mentions really was about (a child, maybe? Or a threat of detransitioning him? Something else?)
If B); Although he was clearly a menace as a rookie as he got himself a relatively massive bounty relatively fast and became a Shichibukai at a young-ish age, we don't know how many bounties he went through before he was offered the position and how he appeared on the news at the time. Like if he went through 2-6 bounty updates before becoming a Shichibukai and appeared in the news A TON it'd feel unlikely he'd be able to keep transitioning later a secret. But if he only had like 1-2 bounties in a short span of time without being photographed too much, it'd definitely feel more plausible. Especially if his OG bounty photos were either shitty sketches (like Sanji's OG poster) or like otherwise poor photos that didn't show his face/features too well. This could also be helped if pre-T (and pre-pregnancy hormones)!Crocodile was kind of androgynous (like Cavendish) and people confused him for a man to begin with On top of this, if Crocodile lost his left hand and got his scar from Whitebeard, if he just went "missing" and then came back transitioned 2-4 years later, he could maybe argue that he was like. A late bloomer. And had hit the gym after Whitebeard kicked his ass. Like yeah he had changed a lot but it's not like there's other Sand Sand Fruit users around claiming to be Crocodile. And it is worth reminding that Iva-chan ability to change people's bio-sex isn't super well known in-universe. So even if people saw him on the news and were like "wait wasn't Crocodile a chick", without knowledge of Iva's abilities people could've been like "no way, surely not, that's not possible". And although the Government maybe could've found it suspicious if they knew about Iva's abilities (which they might've, as Ivankov was a Revolutionary, and their Warlord interacting with a Revolutionary would be sus), as long as Crocodile played nice (which he did, during his Heroic Era) they might've just let it go? (Also if Crocodile was rich at the time he probably could've bribed Morgans to make sure whatever news they published about him didn't ever question his gender or anything)
So all of this to say,
The Most Likely and Most Viable Timeline for Crocodad to be canon would be, approximately;
24-25 Becomes a Shichibukai, gets his ass kicked
25-27 Enters his Quiet Era, Romances Dragon
27-28 Luffy is born, transitions, back to Shichibukai'ing
Of course, this is not an absolute timeline, it's just the one that seems the most viable to me. 'Cause even this timeline is really pushing what Oda and Iva have told us about Crocodile, both the "first half of his 20's" (as opposited to mid 20's), and the "when he was considdered a rookie".
It's pushing it. But it's kind of plausible. And I can't imagine how else it could work in canon.
I do find it interesting though how Crocodile's "quiet era" does overlap nicely with when Luffy was born. Like we don't know how long that era lasted, for all we know Crocodile could've started to get Alabasta like a year after getting his ass kicked by Whitebeard. But it's interesting! And interesting coincidence!
Another interesting note is that 17 is an... interesting number. Like Oda's first one-shot, WANTED! was published when Oda was 17 and that in some ways marks the begining to his adventure as a comic artist. Similarly, Luffy set out on his adventure at the age of 17. A lot of people have been speculating if the God Valley Incident is what caused Dragon to leave the Marines because he would've been 17 at the time. And... It's not quite the same, but if Crocodile transitioned at 27 (as in, started a 'new life', a 'new adventure' as a man at 27)... IDK it'd be an interesting coincidence
Sitenote Re:Missing Kuja Empress
19 years ago, the year Luffy was born, Hancock and her sisters were kidnapped off of the Kuja Pirate's ship when the previous Empress was still the head of the crew
15 years ago the Boa sisters escape slavery and return to Amazon Lily, the status of the former Empress is unknown
13 years ago Hancock becomes the new Empress, the former Empress is presumably dead by this point (as she is said to have died from Love Sickness)
Point being; I reaaally doubt Crocodile is the missing Empress. Like if the former Empress had also been a Shichibukai and had transitioned and was still around, there's no fucking way people wouldn't know about that, right. Like surely they wouldn't say she had died specifically of Love Sickness, right. Like it's not impossible but surely not

Top 5 things you've achieved/you're proud of?
Getting myself to a point where I'm happy more days than not, have a support system, am able to state boundaries and to enforce them, do work I like, and generally am a lot more mentally healthy than I used to be. I'm not perfect and I still have bad days and a lot of work ahead of me, but I'm so much better at 36 than I was at 22 and I've worked really hard to get here.
I got an unsafe sex toy taken off the shelves in 2021. (Link goes to my 18+ sex blog, be ye warned.)
I won nonfiction category awards from Molly's Daily Kiss (a big deal in the sex blog world) two years in a row for two wildly different pieces, Croc Worship in 2021 and Small Penis Jokes Need To Stop in 2022. Sadly, she didn't do awards or the top 100 list in 2023.
I've been published in anthologies twice! Once was in an erotica collection called Cunning Linguists, and once was a horror anthology called Manor of Frights. (Both are amazon affiliate links so I might earn like a fraction of a penny if you buy through them lol.)
I've gotten INSANELY good at making roast potatoes y'all don't even know.

:D I think I put too many, answer whatever you want lol
1, 3, 4 6, 7 9, 13, 14, 16, 17, 20, 21, 22
How do they celebrate their birthday?
Tyler always makes sure that Esme is spoiled! Mind you, not just on her birthday, but he tends to go even more overboard then lol. If it falls during the week, they wait until the weekend and start it off with the kids making her breakfast in bed and giving her a spa morning/afternoon. So a facial, massage and cupping, pedi and mani, sometimes something done with her hair. They will have friends over like Esme's sister and sister's girlfriend, Koen, Clover and Andy. So just a lot of relaxing and hanging around outdoors, dinner on the beach, cooked over an open fire. Her favourite cupcakes and a cake made by the kids. And he always takes her on a birthday trip, a week to one week away :)
3. What do they wear when they're just hanging out at home?
Esme is a lover of comfy things! Yoga pants or leggings if it's cooler outside, yoga shorts or denim shorts if it's hot as balls lol. A baggy t-shirt always. She adds a hoodie of Tyler's if it's chilly. And she ALWAYS wears a pair of her many Crocs outside lol.
4. What is their house like?
After all the renovations and additions, it's a modern farmhouse. Seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, a handful of out buildings, a small pool/house. A mix of elements really: wood, stone, siding on the outside, high ceilings with aged wood beams, granite counter tops. Something like this but with fieldstone mixed in:
Tumblr media
6. What will always make them smile?
Definitely Tyler and his teasing, the way he'll ruffle her hair and sneak a kiss to her cheek or pat her bum when walking by her. And the kids' laughter and Addie's giggles and incessant chattering.
7. What will always make them cry?
Talking about the moments on the bridge in Dhaka or the baby she and Tyler lost in the third trimester. Between the twins and Declan.
9. Favourite book
She has so many she loves! Her fave of all time for sentimental reasons is Bridge to Terabithia.
13. Tattoos:
She has more than most people realize lol. She has a large peacock tattoo where the head is between the breasts and it goes down her stomach a bit and then onto her left cage and ending with a fanned out tail on her back. She has a little fox behind her left ear. A dragonfly on the side of her left ankle, a seahorse on the back of her right calf, and her and Tyler's initials and birthdates on the inner right bicep.
14. What was their first kiss like?
It was when she was fourteen and an older girl at school (just two years older) that was crushing on her, approached her in the hallway and just sort of pinned her against the lockers and kissed her. Totally consensual, mind you.
16. They find a genie and are granted three wishes. What would they wish for and why?
For all her children to happy and healthy for their entire lives. To take away the physical pain that Tyler struggles with every day, and the take away his mental health issues.
17. They're stranded on an island and can only bring four items and one companion. Who and what do they bring?
A good book to read, her journal and pen, a bottle of her favourite rose, a comfy blanket. And she'd choose Tyler over everyone and anyone :)
20. What kind of accent do they have?
I've never thought about it. Do people from Colorado have an accent? I suppose in the main series she may have picked up a slight Aussie accent.
21. What is their most prized possession?
Definitely that cheap leather bracelet Tyler bought her in the Dhaka. That thing has been through a lot and he's had to repair it several times and she refuses to part with it
22. Have they ever stolen anything?
Other than a few hearts along the way? ;). when she started her period as a pre-teen, she stole tampons and pads from a drug store because her mother was completely useless

I Wish I Had Wings
Introductions
Tumblr media
———————-
When OJ was young she would dream  of flying, high in the clouds where no one could catch her but sooner or later, she always had to wake up.
Groaning OJ untwisted herself from her blankets her back craving from another night on the incredibly uncomfortable bunk.  Begrudgingly, she sat up and combed her hand through her unruly copper curls, she was convinced one day her hair would throttle her in her sleep. 
She yawned, her attention wandering over to the dry laughter that made itself known from the other end of the room, a sleepy smile made its way onto OJs face. 
Trudy - “Morning sleepy head.” 
Trudy chuckled, walking over and throwing herself backwards on the rock hard bunk landing on top of OJs legs.
OJ - “Oi get off.”
The curly hair woman laughed as she halfheartedly tried to shove her friend off her legs. Trudy ignored her, getting comfortable (somehow).
Trudy - “I head we’re getting a new shipment of Science Sorties, wonder what Augustine will think of em?”
OJ wondered, Grace was definitely a character. She knew that will Grace had a hard, no nonsense exterior she was warm on the inside. She had take OJ under her wing and OJ isn’t even technically apart of the “science sorties” she’s one of the active medics on Graces team, joining when she was fifteen.  She just happened to pick up on some Pandorian fauna and ran with it. Grace supported her the entire time, encouraging her to explore Pandoras intriguing creatures.
OJs mind wondered a little of track but she soon came back to reality when Trudy elbowed her in the stomach. OJ winced slightly, slapping her friends shoulder but then it hit her. Oh shit. Her eyes widened and she jumped up, scrambling to change into her grey tank top and camo army pants (which coincidently belonged to Trudy). 
Trudy, alarmed by her friend sudden change in demeanour sat up on the bunk.
Trudy - “What? What going on, are you okey?”
OJ took a few minutes to answer as she looked around for her crocs and lab coat. They were both extra … unique, a pair of lavender crocs with little plant stickers on them and her lab coat was a faint pink colour. She tied the ends of the lab at into a bow before craving her lap top.
OJ “I said I would help Max unload the new avatars.”
Oh looked at her military grade watch that she’s drawn a happy face onto with yellow highlighter. 
OJ - “15 minutes ago.”
Trudy stood up, shaking her head while she laughed.
Trudy - “You’ve really gotta be more organised J”
She sighs in defeat, trying her best to wrestle her hair into a short pony tail. Finally she was ready! She rushed off down the corridor after hugging Trudy goodbye, hoping that there was still time to help Max unload the avatars.
She met Max just outside the lab, the avatars had been brought to them (for a change) so after she helped Max check them over she headed to her desk, her desk was covered with papers and note books as well as little bits and bobs. OJ had left out some of her research so she could finish off her most recent report on the study of  Thanators aka “Palulukan” breeding patterns and mating rituals. She got busy with her work, sticking in her wire earphones and selecting a motivational playlist.
A little while later as more people started to filter into the lab OJ decided to take a break. Unplugging her earphones and putting them to the side she stretched and walked over towards Max. He was standing next to the avatars watching their electronic charts, OJ studied the avatars for a few moments until one of them caught her eye. A make, maybe early twenties with a mischievous look on his face - she picked up his electronic chart and read the name. She faintly recognised it but couldn’t quite put her finger on who it was.
OJ - “Tom Sully”
Max visibly paused, his face changed and OJ immediately noticed. She wanted to ask why the sudden change in demeanour but instead Max hastily passed her his pad. Reading the information her eyes widened.
Thomas Sully 
22, Male
Scientist
*UPDATE*
Thomas Sully (deceased)
Avatar replacement 
Jake Sully
22, Male
Ex Marine.
OJ heart broke for this poor guy, he looses his brother and then gets shipped off to another planet. Handing the pad back to Max she stares sympathetically at the avatar. And other hour of so past, OJ buddies herself around the lab checking that her fist aid pack was fully packed and not missing anything. 
Another paramedic, Mara sat beside her checking over her own pack. She wasn’t apart of OJs group but they had grown close over the years.
Mara - “Your mom said anything to you?”
OJ froze, she hadn’t spoken to her mother in years - not since their big argument. Since then, if they ever crossed each other path Kate pretended that her daughter didn’t exist and would walk right by her without as much as a glance.
OJ - “No.”
It was short and OJ felt bad about her brashness but her mother was a topic she didn’t like discussing. Thankfully Maras attention was drawn to two men who had entered the lab. Maxes waved her over, OJ said goodbye to Mara and made her way over to her friend.
Max - “And this is OJ she’ll be the paramedic on your team.”
Max introduced to the two men. Oh recognised them, they where the riders to the avatars she had helped unload earlier. OJ waved, she shook one of the man’s hand who introduced himself as norm and then turned to the man in the wheelchair. He held his hand out for her and quirked his brow slightly.
Jake - “OJ?”
The woman laughed, rubbing the back of her neck with her free hand.
OJ - “Yeah, long story. Mostly involving Orange juice.”
The both laughed a small blush tinted OJ face. Shit, he’s really hot. Max noticed the slight rosy tint of OJ face, he smile. He had grown close to OJ over the years - she was only a teenager when she fist started working in the lab. He thought for a moment and then a mischievous smile crossed his face.
Max - “OJ why don’t you help Jake set up his video logs?”
The woman smiled completely oblivious to Maxes intentions, she was just happy to help.
OJ - “Yeah sure, follow me and I’ll get you set up.”
OJ waged him over to the station next to hers and started filling in the computer log in details. After that she got his log ready and started explaining how it works.
OJ - “You can say anything thoughts, feelings all sorts it’s mostly so you won’t lose your mind for the next six years.”
Jake nodded, in a honestly he wasn’t really paying attention. He couldn’t pull his focus from her eyes, big warm grey eyes that seemed so gentle and caring. His attention snapped back when he noticed OJ putting something on his desk, it was a little blue dinosaur with pink speckles. 
OJ - “There! Now it’s officially OJ approved.”
Jake smiled, OJ seemed odd but in the best kind of way. He picked up the little dinosaur inspecting it, it was carved from wood and it looked kinda rough up close but you could see the care and effort that went into it. OJ must have noticed him starting at the little wooden thing because she covered her eyes and sighed.
OJ - “Oh Eywa, I’m so sorry! Your gunna think I’m a compleat space case, I promise I’m not. I give one to every newbie in the lab so they have something to personalise they’re desk with.”
Jake looked at her with confusion, how could he not like this little dinosaur? It was hella cute and anyone would be lucky to revive something that thoughtful on their first day.
Jake - “No I like it, it’s gunna be my second in command”
OJ smiled.
OJ - “Honestly, it won’t offend me if you don’t like it I kinda jumped the ball with it.”
Jake put on a mock offended look.
Jake - “You better show some respect to my second in command.”
He laughed while he said it, making OJ smile more. She mock saluted the little dinosaur.
OJ - “My apologies lance corporal sir.”
Once they where finished laughing at OJ silly antics, Jake got lost in her eyes again but then he got curious - how did she know marine ranks? 
Before he could ask the moment was interrupted by Grace coming out of her link pod.
Grace - “Where’s my god damn cigarette? Guys, what is wrong with this picture?”
OJ watched as another scientist rushed to grab Graces lab coat, lighter and a cigarette.
OJ - “Morning sleeping beauty.”
Grace playfully rolled her eyes at OJ antics. 
All four of them moved closer to the link pods, Max and Norm introduced Jake to Graces reputation and when they finally meet grace by the link pods Max introduced Grace to both Norm and Jake.
Grace talked to Norm about his Na’vi and she was quite impressed but gave him a few pointers. Her expression changed when she looked at Jake.
Max introduced Jake and Grace stood annoyance resisting from her body language. 
Jake - “Ma’am”
Grace - “Yeah, yeah. I know who you are, and I don’t need you. I need your brother”
OJ winced at the look on Jakes face.
OJ - “Grace.”
She tried but was ignored as the older woman continued.
Grace - “I know the PhD who trained for three years for this mission.”
Jake - “He’s dead. I know it’s a big inconvenience for everyone.”
Graces eyes widen slightly before she regains her original composure.
Grace - “How much lab training have you had?”
Jake - “I dissected a frog once.”
OJ totally caught of guard burst out laughing but after she sees the pointed look Grace give her she is quick to shut up.
Grace annoyed by the hole situation, declares that she is going to see Selfrig as she is sick of having the shit taken out of her.
Grace - “You see? There pissing in use without even the Curtiss of calling it rain.”
Max tried to stop her but it was to no avail and after giving a few words of wisdom to Jake he left. At some point Norm had also left, probably introducing himself to the other scientists.
OJ and Jake spent the rest of the day talking. Ok asked him about his time on earth and Jake asked her about her time on Pandora, by the time they were finished it was late and they both headed their separate ways. When OJ finally got back to her room a goofy smiled stayed in her face all night.

Meet Travis the Aussie who's big Down Under BRIEFS ENCOUNTER THAT CHANGED 'CROC DUNDEE' KID'S LIFE As he scanned the Los Angeles horizon with just $60 in his pocket and beaten-up old shoes on his feet, newly-arrived Travis Fimmel had little idea of what fate held in store for him.
Just a year or so earlier, this latter-day Crocodile Dundee was running barefoot around his family's dairy farm in Australia and tearing about the bush on a motorbike.
Now Travis, 21, was on the verge of fame and fortune - but old habits die hard. As he walked into the offices of LA Models, he realised that he had instinctively slung his tatty trainers over his shoulder.
He needn't have worried. Model booker Paul Nelson cast a professional eye over the muscular torso topped with an angelic, boyish face - and signed him on the spot.
"He had a beautiful face, a very funny personality - it all clicked," says Nelson. "We helped him out with money and a place to stay. We believed in him from the beginning."
That was last April. The young man who used to milk cows to earn pocket money was months away from one of the biggest deals with Calvin Klein since Kate Moss made her name at the fashion house.
THE extremely well-endowed Aussie, now 22, is on a six-figure deal to front the underwear campaign that has sent ripples of desire and envy throughout the population.
Gazing down from a giant billboard in downtown New York, Travis is an Adonis clad in skimpy white briefs. His image is plastered on billboards and in magazines worldwide. A week ago, he was in London's Selfridges autographing underwear for fans.
But when he opens his mouth to speak, the words that come tumbling out are not in sync with his sex-symbol status. In his Aussie drawl, he says frankly of the huge poster: "I don't look at it, man." He is also quick to laugh off the idea of being an object of desire for many women - and some men, too.
"Can't take it seriously, mate. Embarrassing. Funny." Then with a cheeky smile, he relents saying: "It's good, it makes a lot of people happy."
There is no holding back the Aussie bluntness. He says of new boss Klein: "You'd think he'd be stuck-up but he's just so down-to-earth. He's rich as f***, though."
After appearing in a Jennifer Lopez video, he described the diva thus: "She's got a fat a*** but she's very nice." As for his instant success and the underwear shoots: "I felt like a p***k. I was very self-conscious I have to say, mate." Still, at least he did them. He once declared: "No way, mate, I'm not wearing jocks."
These days Travis has more "jocks" than he can use. Along with the year-long contract comes a supply of Calvin Klein pants: "I've got 500 pairs of them at home. I only have to wash about once every two months."
Travis grew up on his parents' remote farm 26 miles outside Echuca in Victoria. The youngest of three brothers, he worked on the farm and rode around on motorcycles and hunted foxes.
Proud mother Jenny says: "He would disappear and camp out for the night. Even now, he jumps on a motorbike and heads out to see what's been happening on the farm." She offers some insight into why her son is dismissive about his good looks: "He was small, the little guy, so it doesn't suit his character to make a big deal about his looks."
At 17, Travis moved to Melbourne to play football and study sport management at university. But hopes of a sporting career were dashed when he broke his leg.
It was while working out in a Melbourne gym that he was spotted by a talent scout from Peter Chadwick Model Agency.
Booker Matthew Anderson recalls: "He never saw himself as a star and I don't think he does now. He is either genuinely not aware of his appearance, or he's just playing it cool. It might be a mixture of both." Part-time modelling jobs took Travis from Melbourne to London. At 19, he dated then All Saint Nicole Appleton. But after a short affair, Travis dipped out of the limelight, dumping Nicole because she was "boring".
It was only a matter of time before he decided to try his luck in America. "Just to see the country," he says. "I keep saying: 'I am not a model, mate. It's just a job to make money to travel'."
After being plucked from obscurity by LA Models, the young Aussie found himself in close proximity to a number of leading ladies.
But his talent for speaking his mind appears to be almost as big as his talent for filling Calvin Klein's new Body Underwear line. He even describes playing the love interest in a Janet Jackson video as "cheesy". Today he lives in LA and is more likely to be found surfing the waves than trapped inside a gym: "I'm the most unhealthy person in the world."
Travis has also been spotted out with Hollywood beauty Meg Ryan, 40. The pair recently dined at Manhattan's Nobu sushi restaurant owned by Robert De Niro. They shared plates of raw fish and giggled like schoolkids.
But we'll have to wait to see whether a more mature woman can tame this wandering Aussie spirit. "Modelling is so boring," he confides. "It's meant to be glamorous but you sit there for ages.
"I don't have a clue what I'm doing. I might go home straight after this. I might go travelling again. My plan is to make a plan."Interview by Emma Hibbs

Gotham New Orleans Backstory: Waylon Jones
This is a lot different than the canons but it makes me happy and it’s the direction I felt pulled in.
Warnings: possible body horror, financial insecurity, sexual content, ableism
He’s mixed and before his condition got bad he was fairly pretty. Light brown skin, long dark curls (which he still has because I think it looks cool, there’s enough bald Killer Crocs) and he kept a mustache sometimes but stopped cause people told him it made him look older.
He was an orphan, lived in an orphanage until it shut down due to hazardous materials found in the pipes (surely that isn’t relevant to anything) the government wasn’t public about that being the reason.
He got moved to a different place until he was 18. He didn’t suffer any additional trauma from his experience as an orphan besides being separated from his parents as a baby. Sometimes he wished he had a family but luckily the facilities he was in were good (the first one didn’t know about the hazardous waste being dumped in the swamp nearby) and he stayed in contact with friends who did get adopted.
He had been working and saving money since he was 16 which was good because at 20 he started having skin issues and burned through a lot of his savings trying to get diagnosed. He got diagnosed at 22 with some severe ichthyosis and was able to start taking stuff for it. Once his meds were tweaked a few times his skin mostly cleared up. He didn’t have to pay for part of the treatment because the nature of his condition was something they’d “never seen before” and allowing them to study and treat him was valuable data. Coincidentally a lot of the other people who were at the orphanage that got shut down started having health issues as well.
Waylon wanted to work in TV and managed to land a job as a weatherman for a few years. That was until his condition got bad again. All that happened was the prices for his meds went up and his salary didn’t. Since he wasn’t nice to look at on camera anymore he got fired and couldn’t find another job.
His skin got worse and he was broke so he signed up for a clinical trial at the lab Ivy worked in at the time. That clinical trial turned out to be secret gene splicing and they spliced his dna with a crocodile’s, they were experimenting with crocodiles and alligators already so it had little to do with his scaly skin. They didn’t follow up with him because after Ivy went rogue she released all their test subject animals and burned half the lab down.
Waylon had to start robbing places since he didn’t get paid from that trial and when people saw his appearance they assumed he was one of the rogues, he started getting called Killer Croc even though he’s never killed anybody. He’s really just a common thief but the way he looks got him some unwanted attention and expectations.
Waylon is pretty sure this is all temporary and that one day he’ll be back to normal, even when the tail came and the bone structure of his face changed to accommodate all the teeth, and even when his feet and hands changed to be more crocodilian. He is sure that any day now he’ll have enough money and find the right doctor to get it all fixed and he’ll have that white picket fence dream. That dream will just have to include live or freshly killed raw animals since that’s all he can eat now.
He and Babydoll/Mary met when they were both at a low point and trying to find work. Babydoll was already a self identified rogue though. That work happened to be porn. They met while waiting to audition and Mary didn’t end up going through with it, but Waylon did. They hit it off with eachother though.
Mary didn’t want to add to the creepy attention she already gets sometimes. Waylon however likes being on camera and since the director at the time was looking for weird Waylon knew his skin and odd features was likely to get him the job this time instead of keep him from getting hired. It started off as a last ditch effort thing but he has found that he enjoys it and it helps his self esteem about his “temporary” state of being.
He and Mary started dating and she didn’t have any hang ups about him doing porn as long as she gets to be his manager so to speak and makes sure he’s getting paid properly and that he’s always comfortable with what’s going on. She’s always on set when he’s working and despite people insisting it should, it doesn’t bother her or make her feel like “less of a Woman.” Thanks to Mary managing his career he doesn’t have to steal so much anymore but most of his friends are rogues so he still gets caught up in stuff and has been in Arkham a few times.
Waylon has gotten some unkind jokes thrown his way about dating Mary. To anyone who is around her for more than ten minutes or to anyone who isn’t just ignorant, Mary does not look or seem like a child, she looks like an adult with dwarfism. There’s visible signs of aging in her face and skin, she has adult teeth, and she doesn’t have any childlike mannerisms besides the toy shaped weapons and her rogue name but that’s more of a play on her being treated like a doll without feelings by the entertainment industry when she was acting. The way she dresses is emulating dolls too.
Still Waylon gets called a creep which Mary will shout at anyone for because she knows better than anyone what the real creeps are like regarding her appearance. She also doesn’t like the idea that because of her disability she can’t date anyone who doesn’t also have dwarfism. She appreciates Waylon bearing the brunt of such things for her.
Waylon lives in a part of the sewer with Clayface who is not a good roommate because he doesn’t clean anything, Waylon still lets him live there though. They technically live in an abandoned part of the train system but the only way in anymore is through the sewers. Bane was their roommate before getting put in Arkham. They use the platform as a common area and some old cars as bedrooms.

Oof, November is already one week away. This year went so fast…
In any case, this means it is time for another Archovember!
If you’re new here, this is my version of Draw Dinovember that I started doing four years ago to challenge myself to draw not only dinosaurs but other Archosauromorphs that I have less practice with. It usually features a somewhat even mix of dinosaurs, pterosaurs, pseudosuchians, and a handful of oddball outliers.
Anyone can feel free to join in! I will be most active on my Instagram (SaritaPaleo), sharing art of the featured species for the day in my story, including that of anyone who joins in and uses the tag(s). But you can certainly post any of your submissions here too! The animal prompt for each day should be posted on or after their specific day, but can be drawn at any time. You can also join in at any time and don’t necessarily have to draw every animal. The point is to have fun and learn about some interesting prehistoric critters!
In case the graphic is hard to read, here is the list:
1. Your Choice!
2. Dino - Qianzhousaurus sinensis
3. Ptero - Hatzegopteryx thambema
4. Croc - Mahajangasuchus insignis
5. Other - Yarasuchus deccanensis
6. Dino - Regaliceratops peterhewsi
7. Ptero - Dearc sgiathanach
8. Croc - Carnufex carolinensis
9. Other - Doswellia kaltenbachi
10. Dino - Ceratosaurus nasicornis
11. Ptero - Batrachognathus volans
12. Croc - Sebecus icaeorhinus
13. Dino - Lambeosaurus lambei
14. Other - Proterosuchus fergusi
15. Ptero - Ferrodraco lentoni
16. Dino - Shuvuuia deserti
17. Croc - Shamosuchus djadochtaensis
18. Ptero - Caviramus schesaplanensis
19. Dino - Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum
20. Croc - Arizonasaurus babbitti
21. Other - Smok wawelski
22. Dino - Kentrosaurus aethiopicus
23. Ptero - Sordes pilosus
24. Croc - Burkesuchus mallingrandensis
25. Dino - Pachycephalosaurus wyomingensis
26. Other - Chanaresuchus bonapartei
27. Dino - Animantarx ramaljonesi
28. Ptero - Quetzalcoatlus lawsoni
29. Croc - Batrachotomus kupferzellensis
30. Dino - Concavenator corcovatus
(Also, for new paleoartists: as a heads up when looking for refs you will come across David Peters. It is ill-advised to use any refs from the websites “pterosaur heresies” and “reptile evolution” as all those skeletals come from him and his own personal imagining of the tree of life and are usually pretty innacurate. If you have any trouble finding accurate references, I am more than happy to share the ones I’ll be using!)

.🔥° › snapshot !
seraphina is the daughter of two immigrants. her father is english while her mother is haitian. they met in new york city where she’s originally from. being the eldest of three children, she’s basically been a part-time mother once she was old enough to watch her siblings.
if there were two things her parents valued it was an education & religion. in their eyes the only way to move up in society was through school and faith in god, so growing up seraphina went to a catholic school until she was in high school then she went to a public school. she isn’t religious at all. she believes in the christian god but also has a lot of interest/beliefs in other religions and spiritual practices. she’s a fake catholic.
she moved to california the summer before high school. it was a complete culture shock. it wasn’t even big things that affected her, it was the small nuances that made her feel out of place. her new york attitude didn’t clash well with her peers. 
the way she talked, dressed, and held herself made her seem like a threat. seraphina was everything but intimidating or conceited. she was a sweetheart, introverted, naive, and somewhat of a pushover since she came from such a strict environment. 
she spent her freshman and sophomore year in the shadows, mostly alone. she was always smart so she had acquaintances who often asked for help with assignments but that’s about all. never really had friends. she got picked on a few times, once even getting into a fight however, that treatment didn’t last for too long.
mid sophomore year seraphina became close friends with her science lab partner. through that, she joined student government which forced her to socialize more and start to fit into/have a role at her school. by the time she graduated high school, she was vice president of student government, one of four co-captains of the caribbean dance team, and valedictorian.
she was able to earn a full scholarship to shu as an undergrad. sera started out as a premed student however her gpa wasn’t high enough to get into the program so she changed her major to nursing her sophomore year. she graduated within the top five percent of her major. she decided to work for a year as a nicu nurse before going back to school for her masters. being a registered nurse, seraphina only worked roughly three days a week for 12 hours a day, so it was easy for her to be to have side hustles. she only stopped working when the semester started. she learned from past mistakes that it’s physically too much for her to work 2 jobs while in school. she’s currently trying to get her masters in nursing with the plan to become either a traveling nurse practitioner or simply a nicu nurse practitioner. 
sera’s been working at after hours as a bottle servicer & waitress, sometimes a bartender if they’re under staffed or busy since her freshman spring semester. seraphina loved a good party and she loved getting tipsy at work even more so. the only reason seraphina decided to work at a strip club was because she’d be damned if she didn't take advantage of misogamy while she was “young and hot.” she perfered the strip club in comparison to the actual club because sunset hills is a college town which means most people going to the clubs are broke students. at the strip club, the guests show up with the intent of spending money on girls which applies to the waitresses as well. she mostly works weekends when she’s managing two jobs but once she went back to school, after hours became her main job again.
sera is the type of student who sleeps in the middle of that day. she likes to have her classes in the morning. so even on work days she’ll do an overnight shift at the club, come to her room, shower, eat and then head to class. after class she would either hang with friends, do her school work or go home to have dinner and sleep before heading to work, this is the same routine now that she lives on dusk drive.  
she’s also the type to do everything last minute. there’s been a number of times where seraphina would be sitting in the backstage, doing her assignment because something’s almost due or just late. this is also her philosophy in life — she runs on black people / caribbean time
on her off days, she could be found doing someone’s hair, chilling in the middle of the courtyard, eating, singing, or dancing. she used to be more active in clubs when she started at shu but she realistically doesn’t have the time
seraphina often comes off a bit standoffish with a rbf but she genuinely isn’t mean unless shes provoked. in that case, she’ll drag the fuck outta you with no cares in the world. probably not physically because she’s very social and tends to know damn near everyone’s business.

Went to school and brought a bag of blue clear glass marbles. Just this tiny pretty thing I bought a year or so ago.
Started giving it out to my classmates and teacher. My teacher adored it and fidget with it. Even thought that the marble that my classmate was playing with and fell for the nth time on the floor was his that he looked at his desk so fast and took hold of his in relief. XD
And then when I give them marbles they usually ask why? And Im like.
Why not?
( Honestly, I just like people and knows that everyone still is a kid at heart. And when one sees a pretty little thing that you used to play with, why wouldn’t you want it? Even if its just a passing thought. And it’s interesting to see how they treat it.)
Another teacher as I was giving him one. Was looking at my little pouch of marbles and ask Why I brought them to school. ( I suspect he thought I was gonna play with them like one does as a child, throwing them and see’s who breaks the other marble most.)
And I was like, just to give out to people. ( I bought four pouches with 50 or so marbles each. So I had lots to give.)
And ofcourse cuz they had taste. They complimented me on my drip. XD and how American and interesting it always tend to be. ( I literally wore this black slack, white button up and vest combo to school last time and who wouldn’t notice that.) Today was just fun. They did ask If i ever lived in America cuz I do look like it. But I was like nah.
Internet ( Pinterest mostly) is just a great place to get inspo from.
( Currently I cannot handle going to school in just jeans and a shirt and rubber shoes without adding some necessary bling and accessories here and there. Some nice croc tooth necklaces? Some Sharingan eye necklace i bought just a few days ago, my constant belr bag and some cargo boots. The worst they told me was I acted like a girlscout and Im pretty proud of it.
Cuz Why not? They haven’t stopped me yet, and its better Im like this than wearing the things they believe are against the school dress code. Cuz when they say short skirt, when I wear one itll be an short skirt with extra legs XD. I have enough to spare.)
Sometimes I notice how my outfit tend to be somehow goth aesthetic. But like Im just wearing my favorite things and somehow thats how it turns out without meaning too.
Oh! I forgot to give em hugs. But I did give my best friend a hug. They likes em lots. They don’t get much hugs ya see. Made sure it was a big one. ( They also were very happy about the tumbled rock he chose from my pouch of pretty rocks. Which I hope to fill up more so I can give pretty rocks to people too.)
Then I figured out that If I cant give my male classmates a hug anytime soon Ill do it the way I saw my moms and her friends does as greeting when they meet for motor rides.
A Fistbump.
It’s always great feeling to be included in that one when they raised their knuckles and ask me for a fist bump. Its extra fun.
So I’ll do that for level one.
( It’s honestly a great experiment and it’s interesting to see how online discord interactions affected my sociability towards people and how people react to it. My fav server has spoiled me with comfort and openness to meeting new people everyday.)
( However an unfortunately fortunate side effect to the increase in my sociability is I now end up with low battery at the end if the day and end up sleeping to recharge only to wake hours later because of hunger.)
Its fun, and my cat greeted me home at the gate today so that was a great highlight of my day today.

FIRST BLOG JUNE 21 22
I’m actually writing this the day after, don’t tell anyone. Here’s my fun day I had.
Yesterday was the most RHODY-TASTIC day! CAUTION: Serious amounts of Rhode Island ahead. First I ate Takis and Dominos Pizza, and half a slice of chocolate cake. Then we went to the indoor aquarium. I got many photos with my Jar. I plan on taking this jar everywhere with me for a very long time, maybe until I’m out of highschool. Then in the car I listened to Damn Skippy. Then, we went to get Clamcakes and Chowder, with Dels lemonade.. a classic. My dad said other states don’t have clam chowder, or doughboys, OR weiners. That’s nuts. Then we went to the beach and I absolutely trashed my limited edition Space Jam 2 Crocs. My dad laughs at me because they’re so beat up. I accidentally added that photo twice and I don’t know how to delete it. I went to the beach and did a SICK jump in the sand. Then we got ice cream on the way home, I got peanut butter pie. And I was stuffed like a pig. Then I went home and that was that. Bye

So remember when I had anxiety attack on Easter and didn't go to the family celebration? I felt really bad about not going because I wanted to spend the day with my grandmother.
Well, talking to my mom about it, my grandmother also had a bad anxiety attack, something she'd never had before, and stayed home. (Full on rant about my aunt the under cut)
Now she adores her grandkids and great grandkids and takes every opportunity to see them so the fact that she didn't go was just wild.
I guess my aunt took it personally, as well as my absence. As she should 😌 she's been a nightmare recently.
No one gives me anxiety attacks like her. It's like her not-so-secret talent. Then she says the most insensitive shit and tries to help me "get over" my anxiety. It's obvious she doesn't even know anything about anxiety or how it works, and she refuses to learn!
Anyways, a week later was my 2nd cousin's birthday and my family didn't go. That's a good thing! If we had gone, I would've been on one of my moms anxiety pill which takes away my brain mouth filter and the moment she started on my brother's eating habits (something she's taken it upon herself to 'fix') I would've told her off. And not nicely at that. And then I would've been the bad guy.
To be completely honest, I'm okay with that. Someone needs to tell her off, to remind her that she is not in charge of everyone. And I am fine with that person being me. But I don't want to ruin my someone's birthday or a family holiday. (I'm already the family disappointment I don't wanna be the one that ruined little Reagan's 3rd birthday too)
I just don't know how much more of her shit I can take, and I'm afraid the next time she starts something when I'm around I'll fucking snap 😔
She's spent so much time trying to make me be like her kids, to be "normal"
Through most of elementary school to now I didn't like wearing jeans, I'm short and thick and I have a hard time finding ones that fit right/comfortably. So I wear leggings. She doesn't like that.
I also used to hate wearing sneakers, I always found them uncomfortable, so I wore crocs and sandals. She didn't like that.
So she would always bring me on shopping trips and make me try on uncomfortable clothes and shoes. And at some point I just got so sick of her bitching I let her buy me whatever just to shut her the hell up.
And she constantly acts like she was doing me a favor! As if my mother refused to buy me normal clothes. Like my she wasn't just letting me be comfortable in my own skin by letting me express myself.
My brother and I have adhd. She always looked at me like I was crazy and roll her eyes when I stayed over with my baggie of daily meds. As if my medication was the problem. Mom mom used to say if I was her sister's kid I never would've been medicated for that or my depression.
As for my brother, his meds make it so he isn't hungry during the day, he'salso extremely picky. My aunt recently found this out and, as mentioned before, she's taken it upon herself to "fix" that.
It's like she can't comprehend that we're not her kids. That we're not hers to "fix" just because we're not like her kids.
And the condescending tone and way she looks at me. Like I'm the most incompetent person she's ever met. Just cause all her kids went to college and moved out at 18 and I'm still living with my parents at nearly 22. As if I'm not already under pressure by my parents and society to do that. As if I'm not constantly dealing with my mental and physical illness.
Not to mention she's a vocal Trump supporter irl and on social media. There's a reason I avoid he Facebook like the plague.
Ugh idk I just need her to stop being such a bitch so we can all enjoy holidays and gatherings again 😔
And yes I am the gay cousin, but I strongly suspect that my cousin is bi, too. You don't just "pretend to be gay" with your best friend for a year in high school, kissing each other, (and very intimate holding and such) in front of people without it being at least a little real.
