Cornfields

There were patterns carved in the cornfield where the stalks had been snapped and flattened into the ground, scoring the earth. The old farmer who lived in the red house on the hill claimed he had heard nothing the previous night when he came into town, grumbling and complaining about the damage to his crops. It was likely teenagers, he concluded to anyone who would listen. The Wilkerson boys had managed to tip over his tractor in the night that previous spring. It was probably them.   

The Wilkerson boys, when they heard about this rumor, vehemently denied that they had any involvement. 

"Do you know how long that would take?" Marcus, the elder of the two said to a news reporter who had asked. "We would have been at it for weeks with a shovel. There's no way he wouldn't have noticed us, even as blind as he is."

"Besides, we were out in Allendale getting some ice cream with the football team last night until late," Elijah, his younger brother added. "Nowhere near Jenkins' property. I reckon it was hail that did it."

Jenkins insisted that it couldn't have been hail. The previous night had been beautifully clear, with nary a cloud in the sky. There had been no hint of even a sprinkle of rain, never mind the amount of hail it would have taken to destroy that much corn. Besides, it looked like someone had carved paths into the cornfield. Perhaps it was the other corn farmer on the other side of town, Louis. He had always had it out for him. If the corn was destroyed, Louis would be the only game in town. 

"He's a crazy old fool if he thinks it was me," Louis said when told about Jenkins' accusation. "It'd ruin my reputation if I did such a thing. Besides, I was out to dinner with my wife last night. It was our 30th anniversary. Is he sure that it's not damage caused by an animal?"

"No animal could have caused damage like this," Jenkins reported from his yard as he tried to salvage what he could from the destroyed corn, a little deflated now that both of his guesses had been proven wrong. The deep scores in the ground were like nothing he had ever seen before. They had to have been caused by something massive-- a tractor with a plow attached to it?

He suggested the banker who had loaned him the money for his own small tractor. He had gotten behind on his payments a month or so ago-- maybe the banker had decided to get his revenge in his own way. 

"What are you even talking about?" the banker said when the police, a little tired of this whole subject, knocked on his door. "I've been home this entire past week with my daughter. She has the flu. When would I have had time to do such a thing? Look, maybe he did it himself to get an insurance payout. We all know he's a little tight on money these days. If it wasn't anyone in town, and it wasn't the weather, and it wasn't an animal, that leaves nothing except for him."

Everyone, save Jenkins, agreed that what the banker said sounded reasonable, and as the sun set over the little town, the subject was quietly dropped as an old man choosing to save his farm over salvaging his pride. 

In the cornfield below the red house on a hill, something with eight eyes and far too many limbs awoke from its slumber. Indeed, the banker was correct assuming that it wasn't anyone in town, nor was it the weather or an animal of any recognizable type, but there was one other option he had failed to account for, and it was angry.

It arose from the center of the field with a mighty groan, loping from the cornfield towards the farmhouse it had fixed in its beady, luminous yellow eyes.

The old man, snoring away in his bed, knew too much. First, it would take him. Next, it would turn to the town who had ignored its presence for far too long.

you know what the blood gulch chronicles are so fucking funny. the first few episodes is just a bunch of idiots shit talking. absolute useless nonsense.

but its not random rubbish being thrown around. the conservations, as ridiculouse as they are, have a flow. You can actually follow how you got from a to q, even if just looking at a nd q seperately is like, how the fuck did that happen. every comment bounces off of a previous one.

red team trying to name M12 LRV. its just gold. the bickering. simmons being the one not believing that pumas are a real animal. how they keep roasting grif for 'making up animals'.

the way the lines are delivered. it's hilarious.

#grif not missing a beat when he deadpans 'a walrus' is still sending me #say what you will but the voice acting in rvb has always been stellar #oh churchs screeching #every dialog they are having is just gold #¨the characters are aware that most their conversations is just malarky #but its not done in a over the top marvel way of #oh they know they are being hilarious little shits #they are just like that #red vs blue #rvb #listening to the episodes at work and stuff is funn but it does mess with the tone of my writing oh boy

[squiffed-then-sozzled]

PRAYING she's in the next season I love her sm 🙏

#had a spanish test today #I am COOKED y'all #Just started writing down random ass shit 😭 #OHMYGOD ALSO today someone for some godforsaken reason put a #LOBSTER in the urinal #I have a picture and everything 🫢 #red vs blue #rvb #rooster teeth #rvb sister #rvb grif #dexter grif #edit #edits #mitski

[theosphobia]

hc tht simmons was left handed and developed ambidexterity while he improved function w his cyborg parts but still favours his left.

n he'd frequently get grif's hair caught in the little bolts and sockets which ofc pissed him off

so whenever grif senses tht simmons is abt to try and run his hand thru his hair when they 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨 he takes hold of his hand instead and laces their fingers

n its like symbolic or whatever bc cyborg hand and the grafted hand w simmons' skin

#rvb #red vs blue #grif rvb #simmons rvb #grimmons #dexter grif #dick simmons #poor writing but u get the gist maybe #hc theyre making out and simmon's heart short circuits or his hand gets red hot

I'm so tired of seeing people say RvB sucks like okay sure there are a couple bad jokes here and there, but thats like, it.

Red vs Blue is such a beautiful, beautiful show. The writing in every season is incredible, every single character is unique and lovable in their own way, just the amount of stories and plots there are is absolutely astonishing.

Every single story is heartwarming and emotional and suspenseful and captivating and hilarious and everything I could ever want from a piece of media. From sci-fi, to comedy, to tragedy, Red vs Blue is an all around amazing and beautiful show

If you really do think RvB sucks I dont want you here 🗣️

#literally writing this im boutta cry #i love red vs blue so much #maybe its just because its my special interest but i really do think its such an amazing show #and people should stop being so negative about it #for me❤️ #red vs blue #rvb #rvb grif #rvb simmons #rvb sarge #rvb donut #rvb lopez #rvb tucker #rvb wash #rvb carolina #rvb caboose #rvb church

#red vs blue #rvbtober #colonel sarge #sarge #rvb #mine #*23 #i wasnt gonna do this day bc i've been drawing locs so much already but then i was just. hey. you love sarge too right? he's ur special guy #and he is. no face reveal for YOU tho. showing sarge's face feels kinda like showing wrench's face. like hey now this is rly intimate #like a victorian woman showing ankle. #also sarge's transgender energy is off the charts. didnt feel like drawing the tattoos tho i hate doing tattoos but they're so cool #crazy mechanist leather biker sarge ftw btw. i rly do believe in that. #his two sons are holding up the flag. simmons is off smooching with the enemy (grif) and he will cry abt this later and write abt it in his #diary that he pretends doesn't exist. they're also setting off fireworks inside that he has to clean up #theyre taking his grindr profile pic or whatever. red army recruitment. whatever u want.

[tvckerwash]

wash tormenting the reds in the most petty ways possible because he's still pissed off about them hitting him with a car and then blowing him up in s8 is so important to me you don't even understand

#I'm pretty sure I've said it on my old blog before but wash is the blues older brother but to the reds? he's the neighborhood bully lmao #that scene in s13 where wash gets all the chorus soldiers to turn on grif for refusing to attend the training sessions? 100% an act of #calculated cruelty on wash's part lmao #oh oh or in s11 when wash hooked up blue base to the ships power but not the reds? also calculated lol #wash stealing all of their stuff in s10 will also always be a fav petty wash moment of mine #he is out to make them suffer and they're not even aware of it lol #rvb #agent washington #mine #not t/oaru #if i ever write my ct lives au fic I'm going so hard on petty grudge holding wash #he is an absolute menace but he's so lowkey about it that in universe trying to convince ppl that wash is as petty as he is #is nearly impossible #the only ppl aware of wash's true nature are the counselor the director ct alpha and probably maine (and maybe florida) #everyone else sees him in a similar light as his fanon characterization #that's part of the reason why i think lina was so shock in s10 when he turned his gun on her bc to her wash was always so subordinate that #she just genuinely never saw it coming #anyway wash/ct/maine friendship is so important to me. i like to include south in there too sometimes but honestly south comes off as a #loner type. like she doesn't mind ppl but no one except north is really willing to tolerate her uh....personality for long periods of time #shes very....reactive and emotionally charged #but tbh id be that way too if i was stuck with north #north unironically reminds me of my dad but not in the good way lol #god my tags are all over the place #audhd brain goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Final sneak peek of my fic Pieces of Him, coming soon to Ao3!

“The fire’s a’catchin’ and it’s time for some s’mores, damn it!” Sarge shouted.

“Yeah!” Caboose said, throwing his arms up. “What’s a s’mores?”

“Excuse me!?” Grif shouted. “You’ve never had s’mores!?” Caboose shook his head. “Dibs! Dibs on showing Caboose about s’mores!” Wash chuckled as Grif hurried over to the table with the makings, all excited now.

Wash watched as everyone got up and grabbed a stick and a marshmallow or two for themselves, Grif pulling his seat up next to Caboose to show him how, carefully explaining how to roast the marshmallow just right. 

Tucker sat back down beside Wash, holding out a marshmallow on a stick. “Here.”

“Oh, uh, thanks,” Wash said, taking it from him. He leaned forward on his knees, holding the marshmallow over the fire. There wasn’t much fire yet, but it was getting there. Tucker copied Wash, hovering his marshmallow a little closer to the fire than Wash was. “It’s gonna catch fire.”

“I know, I want it to,” Tucker said with certainty. “I like these babies burnt.”

“Of course you do,” Wash muttered. Tucker was odd, he always liked his food just a little burnt for some reason. Something about crunch, he had said a few times. Wash thought it was a little ridiculous, but he wasn’t about to argue. He was a grown man and he knew what he liked, even if it was weird as fuck. 

“Carolina, aren’t you gonna have some?” Donut said as he grabbed some for himself. 

“Um,” she said, almost looking nervous. “I dunno.”

“Something the matter?” Wash asked. 

“I, um,” Carolina muttered, shifting her feet. “Also, don’t know what these are.”

“Oh my god,” Grif said slowly. “This is the best day of my life, I get to show people the best thing ever made. Grab a stick, grab a marshmallow, and pull your seat over here lady, I’m about to show you some shit.”

Carolina laughed a little, making her way over to the table. “Fine, fine.” Wash smiled, glad to see her managing to enjoy herself. He knew all of this had hit her hard, so even a small amount of happiness made his heart warm.

“Hell yeah!” Tucker shouted as his marshmallow caught fire. He pulled it away, letting it burn a moment before blowing it out. “See? Perfect.”

“You’re so god damn weird,” Wash mumbled, shaking his head. “You and your burnt food.

“He likes his food burnt?” Simmons said, sounding appalled. “Tucker, what the fuck is wrong with you?”

“It’s crunchy!”

“Freak!” Grif shouted. “Just say your mom never knew how to cook.”

“Excuse me!? You motherfucker, I will kick your ass!” Tucker shotued back, standing up. “My momma knew how to cook, you bitch!”

“Did your dad?” Simmons asked.

“No, but he never cooked, so it doesn’t matter.”

“Of course he didn’t,” Grif said, shaking his head. “That explains so much.”

“The fuck is that supposed to mean?” 

“Nothing, nothing,” Grif said, waving him off.

“Ugh, I just like the crunch!” Tucker muttered, making his way over to the table to make his s’more. “You guys are such bitches.”

“Sorry, I have standards when it comes to food,” Grif said. “I like it cooked correctly and uh, burnt ain’t it.”

“Then don’t burn your food, jackass,” Tucker retorted.

“Fight! Fight! Fight!” Caboose shouted, pumping his fists in excitement.

“Caboose, shut the fuck up,” Tucker said with a laugh. “Jesus Christ.”

Okay so if s14 onward are all simulations that Epsilon was running, what was up with s17. Like. Does Church have a crush on Grif or what

Some Time. #lotta people bringing up the fact that epsilon made a simulation where grimmons was Real Kind Of but honestly that WHOLE SEASON is bonkers #if it's fanfiction that church is writing

[pluto-glow]

So I've had this RvB au bouncing around in my head

You know those like "tattoo artist x florist" au's? It started as a Grimmons one of those, but it turned into "the Reds and Blues all own shops in a mall or something along those lines and antics ensue"

The Grif sibs run a piercing/tattoo place (Kai does piercings and Grif does the tattoos), Simmons is new to the area and just opened a flower shop. Church does IT/has a computer shop that also does tech repair. Tex is Kai and Church's biker girlfriend. Caboose runs a puppy day care. Donut runs a clothing shop where he even makes and sells some of his own designs. I was thinking Doc might have a vegan food place? Or Flowers might run the vegan food place, I haven't decided yet. Idk yet what Tucker's doing, maybe helps Church and Caboose out. I was thinking Sarge might run a gym, maybe a gym for veterans? No one quite knows what Tex does for work, anytime someone asks her she makes a comment like "I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you" and people can't tell if she's joking or serious so no one pushes further than that.

(more rambles under the cut)

I don't 100% know what's gonna happen plot wise yet, I do have it planned tho that Simmons and Church meet because Tex saw Simmons putting up fliers for the opening sale of his flower shop and Tex loves messing with Church so she told Simmons he could put one on Church's window, knowing that Church hates when people do that. Church gets pissed but Simmons mentions that Tex said he could and maybe he had the wrong place, and Church just sighs and rolls his eyes and says that Tex's his girlfriend and was just fucking with the both of them, but Church has somewhere inside Simmons could put a flier up.

I think the fragment AI's (except Tex course) are gonna be Church's siblings. Church doesn't talk about them a ton, but they visit Church's shop a decent amount so everyone's met at least one of them. Sometimes people get confused over it like- "oh I think Church's brother just drove past" "Church's brother??" "yeah?" "isn't his brother like 8?" "no? He's in his 20's?" "no way- Theta's like 8" "Theta? I was talking about Delta, who's Theta?" "who's Delta?" Tex, Wash, and a few others used to work with some of them so those guys know that Church just has a fuck ton of siblings, but they keep quiet about it because they think it's funny.

I also think that Simmons is gonna low key express his feelings to Grif through flowers. Simmons isn't great with his words and won't know how to say "I don't even know what your sexuality is or if you like guys but I like you even though I think you're annoying sometimes and you can get on my nerves but I still think it's kinda cute" so he just says it in flowers. Grif doesn't catch on, he just thinks Simmons is being nice or doing free advertising for his flower shop by giving Grif flowers to put up in his and Kai's place. Until Doc comes over one day, sees the flower arrangement, and points out what it means. Grif has a big gay panic moment, realizes he fell in love with Simmons, and just kinda "that nerd?! What do I even do?!"

Idk what'll happen at that point, probably the Reds and Blues taking turns dragging Grif through a "if you really wanna impress Simmons you gotta do [ insert thing here ]"

Again this is majorly wip so some things may change

god. one thing i LOVE about amir that he has no self preservation. i was thinking abt the episode GIRLS. specifically the moment where the 2 girls at the bar say amir looks better but amir is like - “um no its obviously jake ur wrong” and jake agrees…

it got me thinking…. Thinking about how much amir is willing to take for himself vs how much hes willing to go for jake, yknow? like amir gets mad sometimes when he perceives an “insult” but its not bc hes defending himself as much as he is acting out. but amir actively DEFENDS jake when it comes to some traits he doesnt even TRY to defend in himself - his looks(girls as mentioned, and subtle comments like Swag where hes like “i only hang out with the hottest guys”)… how people address jake (like in Ice Breakers, Bitcoin, jake’s sick). there are exceptions to defending jake but to me those arent really about something like jake’s personality/looks that he cant change, and more a reaction about how he treats amir (trust fall 2) or jake acting like J-Witz for other ppl (some insecure jake eps, esp the recent ones)

And for the most part he plays along with Jake being the better one of the two. Ace and Jocelyn… hes the SIDEKICK. “You consider me dumb!” In normal conversation. Going along with being the Troll Named Rod in Tiny Wings. APOLOGIZING TO JAKE IN CORDUROY PANT. In Table Read where ALL his main characters ARE JAKE…!! Small things like that. He KNOWS and WILLINGLY ACCEPTS his role as being the guy who gets beat up and looks like shit to everyone else because who CARES about their opinions when ONLY jake’s matters??

in a weird way, he’s entirely selfless. amir doesnt do things for the benefit of himself. like yeah. he has murderous tendencies. he hurts people. but all of it is either for attention (mainly to be able to tell a story to Jake), random insane urges(<3), or a form of like??? overdoing stuff which self sabotages him????? Which he’s aware of vaguely????

its just… amir holds such little value on his own appearance, life, and wellbeing to the point where he just doesn’t consider he matters. him being hurt and betrayed is another tuesday. But he would defend jake no matter what. because jake doesnt DESERVE that. and whys that? its because amir LOVES him. because amir loves jake and that CLEARLY means he deserves everything. all his self love goes to jake. even if it hurts him in the long run or makes him look dumb. yknow. because whatever. who cares. EVERYTHING hurts anyways and whats another day hurting himself??? And that fucking makes me INSANE.

#mirmir #jamir #thoughts within thoughts #long post #HE MAKES ME FEEL THINGS . #god. i love amir so much as a character. hes so WERIDLY romantic and sweet even tho hes the #WUOTE UNQUOTE worst ever man ro ever man #HES SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO #UGH #hes just so good i love character w no self preservation #sorry for writing an essay on mirmir i will do it again<3 #you know im insane about a characrter when i start posting 2AM essays #i havent done this since grif and stan #this is a category 7 blorbo event. #laying awake at noght staring at the ceiling just thinking about how raw and unfiltered amirs love for jake is #its genuinely an unstoppable force of nature #like he CANNOT help it. #thats why i LOVE breakfast date.

I absolutely love writing grimmons dialogue.

Here’s an excerpt from the fic I’m working on:

“I think you’re giving the FBI too much credit.”

Grif scoffed.

“Wait, I think I found something,” Simmons said, causing Grif to sit up.

“From the FBI?”

“Would you forget about the FBI already?”

“Psh, that’s exactly what they want us to do.”

“It’s on one of the websites I found when I was researching werewolves the first time.”

“One of the trash ones or one of the good ones?”

“The one that was right about wolfsbane, but also said that a stake through the heart would kill us,” Simmons answered.

“Well, it wasn’t wrong, I’m pretty sure a stake through the heart would kill me.”

“Yeah, but it would kill anyone, we’re not more suspetable to stakes than other forms of heart murder.”

“Heart murder?”

“Shut up, you know what I mean.”
