Tom Blyth and YN Take a Couples Quiz | GQ - actress!yn

gif by @obriy <333

MASTERLIST | MY PATREON

read my actress!yn x tom insta blurb here <3

"Hi I'm YN"

"And I'm Tom"

"And today we're doing..." you looked at Tom so you could say the following part of your introduction together, "The GQ Couple Quiz!"

"Are you nervous?" you said as you looked at him, noticing his hands fidgeting on his lap.

"I'm alright, I'm pretty confident I'm a great boyfriend and I'll know all the answers." he gave the camera his million dollar smile and you couldn't help but show a smile of your own.

"Okay, first question," you looked at the card in your hands, "What is the name of my first movie?

"That one's pretty easy," he shrugged before continuing, "Spider-man Homecoming."

"That's correct," you flipped the card to read the next question, "What city did I grow up in?

Tom stayed quiet for few seconds, looking nervously at the camera and making you laugh.

"Already? Really?" you looked at him in disbelief, "I thought you were a great boyfriend!"

"I am! This is a tricky one!" Tom moved his hands around and you covered your mouth with the card to hide your laugh "Okay, you were born in California, but you actually grew up in Phoenix."

"Correct! See! You knew it," you grabbed the card with the next question, "What would my job be if I weren't an actress?"

"Detective," Tom quickly said, "100% detective."

"Oh! That was fast," Tom shrugged before you continued, "Okay bonus, what kind of detective?" you looked at him with a raise eyebrow.

"Homicide," he replied quickly again, "All of those true crime podcasts prove it."

"Well yeah, that's true," you smiled as you read out the following question, "Where was our first date?"

"It was at your house," Tom smiled as he remembered the moment, "And it was playing Clue, and I had to pretend to enjoy that game for you, and it was totally worth it."

"How sweet of you," you smiled at him before continuing, "Oh boy, you have to be specific for this one," Tom raised his eyebrows and waited for you to give him the question, "What is my night routine?"

"So, she puts on this little pink robe," he explained directly to the camera, "And then she puts her hair on one of these stretchy bandanna things so her hair is out of her face," you smiled at him, indicating that he was answering correctly, "Then she washes her face with this like foamy cleanse thing, then she puts on all her creams, and then when she's walking to the bed she turns on the heat, which is probably the only thing that we fight about," you both let out a laugh as he continued, "And then she gets in, she goes by her cupboard and she puts on these really fluffy and ridiculously warm socks and also my really baggy tracksuit bottoms but she rolls 'em and she puts one of my t-shirts 'cause she likes the smell of my aftershave," he smirked and you blushed for a second, "Then she gets in bed and she asks me to put one of these big fluffy, white blankets in the dryer so It's warm, then I tuck her in and put the other blanket on her and that's it."

"Okay wow, you killed that one," you smiled at him, "You did really well."

The next questions were pretty easy for Tom's liking, getting right your astrological sing, celebrity crush, favorite ice cream flavor and the year you won your first Emmy. He ended up getting 23 points.

Now, it was your turn to answer questions about him.

"You feel ready, love?" he said giving you a smirk and you only nodded motioning him to read the first question, "Okay good luck, how old was I when I got my first role?"

"You were fifteen and already getting cast by Ridley Scott ." you answered confidently and sent a wink his way.

"Neat. What was the name of the high school I graduated from?"

"Was it North Hilld?" at this, Tom raised his eyebrows and shook his head, "Shit! It was Hills something, right?"

"You really don't know the name, love? This is making you look bad!" you covered your face in embarrassment, even tho you knew he was joking, "The correct answer is Arnold Hills."

"Ohhh that's right, give me the next one I'll do better."

"Okay, okay," he looked down at the card with the next question, "Who's my celebrity crush?"

"Also easy, Jennifer Aniston," you smiled looking at the camera, “You had a poster of her hidden in your closet and all.”

"Nope, you're wrong," you raised your eyebrow at him, pretty sure you were right about your answer, "You're my celebrity crush, love."

"Tom! That was so bad!" you both laughed and he winked to the camera, "This is a serious game."

"Okay, okay, you got that one right," you rolled your eyes with affection as he read your next question, "The next questions are going to be a single sentence answer so I need you to do it as fast as you can, okay?"

"I'm ready, let's do it"

"My go-to Karaoke song?

"Senorita by Justin Timberlake."

"What is my coffee order?"

"Oat milk latte."

"What is my biggest pet peeve?"

"Loud chewers."

"What's my hidden talent?"

"Whistling, like, melodically whistling if that makes sense."

"Okayy, those are all correct," he put the cards on the small coffee table between you, "We make a pretty good team, don´t you think?"

"We do, but I'm pretty sure I won." you shrugged and Tom laughed as you both turned to the camera to say your goodbyes.

"Thank you so much for watching. I personally think I won but we'll see."

"Thank you GQ!" you waved you hand and the camera stopped rolling shortly after.

The video ended up being one of the most watched on GQ's YouTube channel.

Ranking My MCs on How Likely They Would Be Adopted by Batman

Not a single person has ever asked for this. However, I have seen so much batfam stuff on my dash it's been living rent free

Val Ebony (ILITW) If you told me Val moved to Gotham and was a vigilante for a few years and then moved back right before ILITW I think I would believe you. This man has the whole package: dark hair (his hair is brown underneath all the dye), tragic backstory, shitty parents, even shittier bio dad who's also a villain, homicidal rage, he even died! But overall what got him to the top is just because of how well he fits with the Gotham and the Bats' vibes and aesthetics. Like it just feels right.

Eros Blackwell (Immortal Desires) Batman would have showed up in Crimson Beech to try to recruit Eros only for Eros to explain they do in fact still have a mom *who is on thin ice with me rn). However. They still get REALLY close, especially when they find out Gotham is on a ley line. I'm tempted to say Eros, Cas, and Gabe fuck off to Gotham after ID 2

August Rose (Crimes of Passion) So August's backstory is that they grow up most likely without their mom, and then their dad is mysteriously murdered. August tries to solve it themself but fails and instead becomes a detective to solve other crimes and hopefully find justice for other people. They're gruff, badass, and too damn clever. They were definitely Robin. Hell they could be Batman for all we know and it just wasn't mentioned in CoP

Magnus Bishop (Laws of Attraction/Into the Windverse) While slightly less likely only because he becomes a lawyer instead of some sort of detective or hero. However, he absolutely has the potential. His parents were murdered when he was young, he was tormented at school and betrayed by his friends, he was neglected by his foster mother and separated from his sister, all before he turns 18. He even gets super powers eventually. He has the determination, the ambition, and hell the whole reason he became a lawyer was to defend people from the systems that beat him down his whole life.

Asterin Nightbloom (BOLAS) I mean Asterin is pretty obvious, he's like the quintessential hero. Dead parents (twice), super skilled, heart of gold, etc etc. He's practically born to be a hero and I think he'd be such a good bat. Maybe not a Robin unless it's just for a few years before becoming his own hero

Leon Vance (It Lives Beneath) The main reason Leon is so high up is because he is so fucking capable. That's what the bats are known for among other heros. And of course there's his classic bat backstory. He's a badass, he unearths a CULT, has a cool and unique signature weapon, forms his own team and even has a super hero suit. Best part, he looks good the whole time.

Damian Stone (Murder at Homecoming) There's the obvious stuff like being a genius, a detective, unsolved mystery haunting the narrative, solving a murder, looking good doing it, socially awkward, etc etc, but I also have to add that I literally named them after Damian Wayne. In fact their name was originally gonna be Tim after Time Drake but Damian sounded better. However, they do suffer in the rankings seeing as they have both of their parents, both of which are also very good parents.

Callum Wayland (Hero) Listen, Callum would be a great DC hero but in terms of Batman relations I don't think he'd be adopted. Unfortunately for him the Super Family parallels are just too hard to ignore. However I could see him being a Bat's emotional support Super so they'd see each other a lot and I think Bruce would be begrudgingly fond of him when he finds out Callum punched a corrupt rich guy into the stratosphere.

Castor Athantis (It Lives Within) Castor has all the makings of a PHENOMENAL DC superhero but again I just don't see them as a bat. They have too much of a mystical connection. They're more likely to run ith someone like Constantine. I'm sure they'd be associated, I could definitely see Castor joining Justice League Dark, but that's it

Emrys (The Cursed Heart) Emrys will fight for people but it's not something they're really going to pursue. They have the backstory for it, don't get me wrong, but going out and punching bad guys just isn't really their thing. In a modern au they might be some sort of friend of Bruce's and a Batman ally but they wouldn't be a hero.

Julian Athantis (It Lives Within) Julian is just as good a candidate as Castor, down to mystical powers. But Julian would only be a hero to help Castor, if he was one at all. He just wouldn't have his heart in it. He'd show up, help other heroes, and I could definitely see his and Lincoln's apartment being open to be used as a safe house, but he just doesn't want to be a hero. Not as in he's just not interested, more as in he actively does not want to be a hero.

Taylor McKenzie (Endless Summer) Taylor is in a similar boat as Julian where he doesn't really want to be a hero. He'll show up to big planet-threatening shit but otherwise he just wants to go to college and love his friends and husband. I could see the Justice League, Batman especially, keeping tabs on him so they'd know each other but that's about it. More likely Taylor would just go create problems for Dr. Fate when he's bored and then go back to minding his business.

Apollo Solaris (The Elementalists) Apollo really fits the hero archetype. However. I think if he stepped foot in Gotham city he'd explode. Or maybe Gotham would. They just clash so severely that even if he did meet Batman for whatever reason they'd hate each other.

Mattheo Lazarin (Bloodbound) Listen. Mattheo has enough on his plate being the Bloodkeeper and dealing with vampire shit. He doesn't have time to care or be a hero.

okay lemme get uuuuuuuh a #3 (Dale Cooper) with uh some fluff please

Damn Good Coffee and Company

Dale Cooper x Gender Neutral Reader

Summary: You share your morning coffee with a certain federal agent.

TW: none :)

WC: 900

Twin Peaks had always felt off. You'd never deny that accusation should anyone ever make it. The entire town felt like a liminal space to the rest of the country.

Even time itself felt strained and different, like each second moved slower than the last.

But you'd gotten used to it since your father had moved the family up to the Pacific Northwest and gotten a decent paying job at the Packard Sawmill. The very place you now worked to make ends meet, though there were rumors that the place was on its last legs and about to shut its doors for good.

It wouldn't be shocking; all hell seemed to break loose after the homecoming queen's body washed up on the shore.

You tried not to think about it or the feds that would no doubt flood the town since there'd been rumors milling around about cocaine and the brothel that did business at the border.

Christ Almighty.

That was the only though you could muster before cutting the engine outside the R & R Diner. Work boots crunched against gravel as you hopped from the old pick up, crackling with you every step until the door chime announced your arrival.

No one paid much mind other than Norma.

"Morning, Y/N," she beamed tiredly, "Usual?"

"Am I getting that predictable?" a comfortable laugh was shared as the order was jotted down and cash was shelled out.

"Predictable isn't always bad. Especially around here." Norma was filled with sage, maternal wisdom. Something Y/N appreciated greatly. "Have a seat. I'll have Shelly bring you some fresh coffee when it's done brewing.

Grinning shyly, you spun on one heel to see a sea of familiar faces. Yet one stuck out like a sore thumb amidst all the blue collar workers. Agent Cooper, the federal agent from DC, sat alone sipping at a dwindling cup of coffee. Normally he had case files spread across the table with a put upon Sheriff Truman sitting in the other booth.

Today was different.

Cooper stared into the middle distance, whispering to himself about owls. It wouldn't be the first time an outsider lost their marbles within town limits. Sighing, you padded over and decided to play the part of friendly townie.

"Mind some company, Agent Cooper?" you asked shyly, breaking the man of his reverie. Concentration broken revealed a friendly smile and slight crinkling of dark eyes.

"Not at all, Y/N. Have a seat." he offered cordially yet completely accommodating. He was different than how you pictured most FBI agents, always upbeat and excitable. Almost like a puppy dog. "Sheriff Truman isn't here today."

"Harry must be pretty busy if he decided to skip breakfast at R & R." you both share a chuckle as Shelly confidently strides over with a fresh mug and steaming pot of coffee. The mug is slid in front of you while Cooper obediently holds his mug out. After a moment, the waitress is gone and you're left alone.

Conversation is sparse yet enjoyable. There's something about this outsider that's different from the rest. You strive to impress him as much as learn more about him. Dale, he asks you to call him, is as intelligent as he is charming.

Not to mention odd. Maybe that's why he fits so well into such a fascinating town.

"Must be way different out here than in Washington." you offer awkwardly as the conversation hits a lull.

"On the contrary." he offers cheerily, "I think every place is similar in its own way. Filled with as many interesting people as there are shocking secrets."

"You think Twin Peaks has a lot of secrets?" that would news to you: everyone was pretty forthright to a fault around these parts.

"Absolutely. It's a puzzle." he stops after that, smiling vacantly. Something is amiss but that's common in Twin Peaks.

"That's an odd way to look at homicide." you add tersely, taking a sip of coffee. He grimaces, pondering a potential misstep.

"Forgive me. I suppose you do this kind of work for so long you get used to it. Were you close with the deceased?"

"Laura? No. I'm practically a decade older than her," you guffaw darkly, thinking of that homecoming picture that was plastered all over town. "But I can't help but think that she and I would have been enemies."

"What makes you say that?" he cocks his head doggishly, gelled hair shining in the sunlight pouring through the window.

"Look at me," you motion at the ball cap, flannel shirt, and mud-stained boots, "Lumberjacks and popular girls don't exactly mix."

"I like your ensemble," he adds wholesomely, "It has character. And it takes character to be different."

Then he smiles warmly before reaching out to pat your hand. Heat rushes to your cheeks, something you hope he doesn't notice. But before anything can be mentioned, he looks at a digital wristwatch as doe eyes grow wide.

"I'm late for a meeting." he scoots out of the booth before setting a few crisp bills on the table. "But I've enjoyed our conversation. See you tomorrow morning?"

"S-sure." you stutter, not quite believing his words.

"Then it's a date."

Cate darling do you have a top ten-ish smallville moments to You?

so I wrote down all the moments that were dear to me off the top of my head, and then I tried to rank them and that was impossibly hard, because they’re like apples and oranges!! so what I present to you is a series of top moments, sorted by relationship:

top 6 Lois and Clark moments:

the whoooole episode of “Committed”—Lois listening to her own drunk voicemail saying Clark Kent is the sweetest guy she’s ever known??—but especially the climax with the lie detector test: “Underneath it all, do you love this man? Do you love him? Tell the truth, do you love him?” And she answers “Yes”!!!!!!! talk about the revelation of secrets!!!!

when Clark has just gotten back from his self-imposed exile from humanity in “Metallo” and is at the Planet and Lois tells him “I helped the Blur stop a homicidal maniac” and Clark answers, “You know, I’d love to hear about it.” and then she comes over to excitedly perch on the end of his desk and tell him the whole thing and he’s just grinning at her and listening in total delight at who she is as a person!!!

the whole ridiculous scheme in “Hydro” where Clark dresses up as Green Arrow to convince Lois that Ollie isn’t Green Arrow and Lois makes out with him, and then at the end of the day Chloe’s like “tell him” and Lois says “Green Arrow is a phenomenal kisser, better than my boyfriend” and Clark, who just found out that Lana is having Lex’s child, is like “okay maybe today isn’t a total loss”

when Lois pulls the blue kryptonite out of him and then runs away and hides when he wakes up. I know this struck you and it really struck me!! the theme song for the whole show goes “somebody save me”, and Lois does it here!! she saves him exactly the way he always saves everyone else!!! and it goes to show that she understands why he doesn’t do everything in the light, why he doesn’t stick around to be thanked, why he doesn’t take credit. she’s his equal in this very specific way!!

weirdly I really like the bit in “Echo” where Clark can hear thoughts and hears Lois thinking “Why’d you have to get attached? They always leave.” because Lois really does have such a capable, brash exterior that the moments where her vulnerabilities show are so special and so important, and this instance of it just cuts to the heart so completely.

the glimpse into the future in “Homecoming”!!!!! it’s everything that’s great about Superman.

top 4 Clark and Lex moments (admitting that a lot of the very early seasons have blurred into a mush in my brain):

this was already in my phone note draft before I saw you reblog it, but the scene in “Nemesis” where they’re fighting in the tunnels and Clark thinks Lex is storming off leaving him to die, but he actually went to go get a crowbar!! and Clark tells his mom he saw a glimpse of his friend!!! this is another “somebody save me” moment. and I think the episode treads the line really well between admitting that Lex’s behavior over the years has been shady, but that the shades of gray ultimately come from not having anything to compare to! so his love for Clark is flawed but it’s real!! it’s the truest love he’s ever known! my favorite thing about this relationship is how until the last moment, Lex never fully turns his back on Clark, he never stops wanting them to be friends again.

when Lex has just gotten back from the desert island (lol) in “Phoenix” and goes to the farm and the boys hug! Clark is so happy to see his friend alive!! Lex has somewhere to go where he is uncomplicatedly welcomed!

the “Lexmas” fantasy of Clark being an uncle to Lex’s son and Jonathan telling Lex he couldn’t be any prouder of him. I weep

the episode where Lex thinks Clark is his long-lost half-brother for a hot second. I maintain this delusion should have persisted for two or three seasons

top 7 Lex and Lana moments (it had to be done):

the second timeline of “Reckoning” where Clark has decided not to tell Lana the truth about who he is and Lana flees to the mansion and asks Lex in an agonized voice, “I don’t understand. Why would you lie to someone you love?” and Lex says, like he’s confessing, “I wouldn’t.” this is such a perfect scene to me, in how it shows us that what’s been drawing Lex and Lana together this whole time is their similarities!! the parallels between them! Clark claims to love the one and hate the other but they are both on the outside dying to be let in because they both have been longing for love and belonging since they were kids. it’s just such a fascinating foundation for their relationship.

directly related, the scene in “Vessel” where Lex finds out he has superpowers and immediately, right away, goes straight to Lana and shoots himself in front of her so she knows what he’s become. the irony of this is so delicious. neither of them has a clue at this point, but the secret that Clark kept from both of them, the secret that brought them together, is the very same secret that Lex tells her right away, not for a scheme or to manipulate her, for no other reason than that he wants to share it with her. it makes me insane. this is the lexana dynamic I love.

in “Onyx” when Lex goes to Lana’s apartment to apologize for whatever his evil twin did, and she says his other half “expressed certain desires” and he says “it wasn’t me,” and she shoots back “are you sure?” and then he gives the completely deranged response: “Whatever my feelings are, I would never do anything to jeopardize our friendship.” nobody asked him to bring feelings into this!! it’s like Lana said “your evil twin said he wanted to have sex with me” and Lex answered “wasn’t me, bc I love you and the purity of that love means I would never ever act on it.” I love when he’s honorable!

the scene in “Fade” where Lex has been on a business trip and says he’s glad to be home, and Lana says “what’s so special about Smallville?” And he starts naming stuff like “cows, cornfields” and then she grins and says “I missed you too.” and he says “You have no idea.” one of the things that seasons 6&7 seem to forget is that for five seasons, Lex and Lana consistently really enjoy each others company!! they like hanging out! this scene is my favorite instance of that.

the “Lockdown” scene where Lana tells Lex he has to keep talking so he doesn’t pass out and he says “Do you think I’d look better with hair?” and she laughs and says “I’ve never thought about it.” and he says “I have. I’ve thought about a lot of things.” and then later when he’s gotten more delirious and starts telling her about his Lexmas dream of everyone being friends, “And you were there, you were the best part.” this episode is like a fanfiction in the best way.

all the “Lexmas” stuff. Lex’s face when Lana first kisses him so clearly says “oh fuck I’m going straight to hell” so watching him slowly relax into it, start believing that he can have this! that he can be loved and happy! that he can be a good husband and a good father! a good man! aaaahhhhhhh

the second episode of season 7 (and ONLY that episode lol) where Lex was on his repentance shtick and tracks down Lana and is like “I’m here to beg forgiveness. The fact that you framed me for your murder only makes me admire you more. You can kill me if you want. Seriously, shoot me. Also, I love you please come home.” it was such a Moment for Lex and I wish it could have gone somewhere!

Assorted moments:

the pierced hand cruciform fall at the end of s9. dare I say the only time a Smallville finale was thematically coherent and compelling?

Chloe’s litany of inside jokes with herself once she knows Clark’s secret and he doesn’t know she knows. and also just—her whole transformation once she finds out the secret!! she grows up into this unselfish person living life in service of mission all at once!!

the Chloe and Clark kiss heard round the world. it’s a great kiss and they deserve it lol

EDIT: Chloe’s healing powers!!!!

Little Harringrove ficlet set in like 2019, just before they get together

"You know, if we were superheroes, you'd be the Winter Soldier to my Captain America."

Steve had said it so casually, Billy almost hadn't paid it any mind. He was way too absorbed in cleaning up after their movie marathon, and so exhausted that he almost dreaded doing it again tomorrow night. He'd somehow thought that four to five movies a night would be no big deal, especially since Steve was letting him stay over at his house all week, but there was a lot to follow in these films, and entirely too many characters to keep track of. Still, Steve said they had to rewatch all of them before going to see the new one, Endgame or whatever, and Billy had finally let his best friend talk him into a movie marathon. He had a hard time saying no to him.

They'd started off with only four, watching Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk (which wasn't even part of the official lineup, but Steve insisted it was essential to establish the character), Iron Man 2, and Thor. The next night, they also did four, going from Captain America: The First Avenger, The Avengers, Iron Man 3, and Thor: The Dark World.

Then tonight, they watched Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Ant-Man. They would've watched Captain America: Civil War, too, but they were both tired and had to get up early the next day, so they said they could do it tomorrow.

And now, just after he'd said it, as Billy folded the blankets and Steve swept the popcorn off the couch cushions, Billy stopped and stared at him.

"So, I remind you of a homicidal maniac with a metal arm that killed and injured numerous people without a second thought?" He asked bitterly, remembering the long-haired assassin that beat Captain America to a bloody pulp and then left him for dead on the bank of a river. "Gee, thanks."

"Well, yeah, that's part of him, too, but that's not what I meant," Steve said, tossing a popcorn kernel at Billy.

"Well, what did you mean, then?" Billy asked.

"I'm not giving you any spoilers! You'll just have to keep watching and figure it out." Steve gave him his most innocent evil smirk, and Billy only sighed. He loved his best friend, but he could be a fucking menace when he wanted to be.

The next night, they watched five movies. Starting with Civil War, then going on to Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Thor: Ragnarok. Billy liked them all, but he still didn't get what Steve meant when he said he was like Bucky. And Steve still wouldn't tell him outright what he meant, because he didn't want to risk spoiling the movies, even though Billy assured him 100 times he didn't care.

The night after that, they watched the last four movies, since the next day they had tickets to go and see Endgame. Starting with Black Panther, then going on to Avengers: Infinity War, Ant-Man and the Wasp, and finally, Captain Marvel.

Billy hated to admit it, but he was getting just as into these movies as Steve was, and he was almost as excited for the new movie tomorrow, too. Still, he couldn't figure out what Steve had meant the other day. But he didn't want to ask again, he couldn't let Steve know it was bothering him.

But as they cleaned up the snacks and the trash, the pillows and the blankets and put the living room back together, he didn't have to.

"So, have you figured it out yet?" Steve asked as he fluffed the ugly, uncomfortable and probably really expensive throw pillows.

"Not really. I mean, I guess I get it a little. We're best friends, your name is Steve and mine starts with a B, ends in a y, and has two syllables, and even though we fight sometimes, we still stay friends or whatever. I still don't understand why I have to be the tortured cyborg and you get to be the popular Golden Boy, but it's whatever," Billy replied, shrugging as he picked up the dishes to take them to the kitchen. He could feel his heart stutter when Steve laughed.

"Actually, most of the people who like Marvel actually like Bucky more than Steve, but that's besides the point. You got part of it, but there's more to what I said than that."

He stopped fussing with the pillows then, and instead walked over to Billy, taking the plates and cups from his hands and putting them back on the coffee table. He was so close that their toes touched, and Billy could smell the pizza, popcorn and sugar on his breath. Billy almost sqeaked in surprise at the sudden proximity, and he could feel his heart start to speed in his chest.

"Soooo... you wanna clue me in then?" He asked, not quite sure where to look or what to do with his hands. Steve was taller than him, and he wasn't sure what to do with someone when he couldn't look down at them. It made him feel a little out of place, and he didn't know how to get back to the way he always felt with Steve. Like he could mess with him, be near him, talk to him and do anything with him and be perfectly happy with it. He wanted to always feel like that, but right now it felt different, like there was something hanging in the air between them that neither of them wanted to address just yet.

"Well, another thing that fans do, besides just liking Bucky more, is they like to analyze their relationship. I do that, too, sometimes, and I realized their dynamic is a lot like ours. We were friends, then some shit happened and we weren't, you beat me up a little, finally told me about all the shit you'd been through, and finally we were able to heal and get you some help. Maybe you're not 100% perfect yet, but we know we have each other and we know that we're gonna be with each other til the end of the line. Or, at least, I hope we will," Steve said, and despite how nervous Billy felt, he was a little flattered, too. Steve was one of the only good things left in his life, and to hear him say that he wanted Billy by his side through the rest of his life felt pretty amazing. Billy could already imagine it, the two of them living through thick and thin and still going to see their silly little superhero movies together 50 years later, when Marvel would release Captain America 24.

"But that's not all," Steve continued, bringing Billy out of his thoughts. "A lot of fans, myself included, look at the two of them and think they'd make a cute couple, some of us even believing that they already are one, but Marvel is just giving Steve female love interests because they're owned by Disney and are too cowardly to have any of the characters identify as LGBTQ+. But like I said, a lot of fans already ship the two of them together."

Billy felt his mouth going dry, his eyes searching Steve's face for any kind of confirmation that he meant what he was saying, that he wasn't reading this wrong. He figured it was pretty blatant what he was saying, there wasn't a whole lot of room to mistake this, but he wanted to be absolutely sure before he made a fool of himself.

"So what are you... what are you trying to tell me?" Billy asked, holding his breath.

"I'm trying to tell you that if I were Steve Rogers, and if you were Bucky Barnes, and the two of us had fought together in World War 2, been inseparable on both schoolyard and battlefield, promised each other that we'd be together until the end of the line, and I'd fought an entire Civil War against 117 countries to protect you because I never gave up on you... somewhere in there, I might’ve developed a feeling a bit stronger than just friendship for you."

"And if we weren't superheroes... If we were just ordinary people watching the movies, if you were just Steve Harrington and I was just Billy Hargrove... what then?"

Steve flashed him a smile, and Billy practically melted right there as Steve took one baby step closer, his fingers gentle brushing over Billy's arms before gripping his hands tightly.

"Well, if that were the case, then I'd say I've definitely developed those feelings a long time ago, but I was just too scared to say anything about it until now. And I'd say that I definitely really want to kiss you right now."

And who was Billy to refuse a sweet request like that? He finally had an opportunity to kiss Steve like he'd always wanted to, and he wasn't going to pass that up. He didn't waste any time in crashing their lips together, holding Steve close to him with one hand in his stupid perfect hair and the other wrapped around his back, nearly crushing him into himself. Steve hummed with laughter as he placed one of his hands on Billy's shoulders, the other resting on his hip where Billy's hand came to rest, covering it. They both felt alive with an electric charge going between their bodies, and even though they'd both closed their eyes and couldn't see, they knew they were both smiling like idiots. Billy could feel his heart jack-rabbiting in his chest, as if trying to tire itself out, but it was useless. Steve had never felt more butterflies in his stomach than he did right now, no one else had made it fill up with that many cocoons that had hatched all at once.

When they pulled apart, they couldn't help but giggle a little bit. Their respective little siblings would be both proud and incredibly too smug if they knew what had just happened. Max would be glad that they'd finally quit it with the pining, and Dustin would absolutely never shut up about how they were nerds just as much as he was. But right now they didn't have to think about their siblings, all they could think about was each other.

"Y'know, I think that in all those movies, Black Widow was only wrong about one thing," Billy said, smiling stupidly as he continued to hold Steve close. "Not everyone needs practice when it comes to kissing."

Steve laughed at that, loud and carefree, and Billy wished he would never have to go without that laugh. If Steve had really meant what he said though, he wouldn't have to. After all, they were gonna be stuck with each other from now on.

They'd be with each other til the end of the line.

Blake Chappell's life was headed in a positive direction during the fall of 2011. The then-17-year-old was adjusting to life in a new town after his family moved to Senoia, Georgia earlier that year. Previously, Blake and his mother Melissa lived in Clayton County. Melissa decided to move Senoia after Blake got into a physical altercation with the stepfather of his ex-girlfriend. The incident was tough on Blake, but he was doing seemingly well in Senoia. He quickly made new friends and started dating a new girlfriend. Unfortunately, before Blake's life could continue to flourish, he was brutally murdered. His murder remains unsolved today.

Blake was last seen alive during the early morning hours of October 16th, 2011. The previous evening, Blake attended his high school homecoming dance with his girlfriend, Rion. Blake reportedly had a great time at the dance - he called his mother afterwards to tell her that he had "the best night of his life."

That phone call was the last time Blake spoke to his mother. Hours later, he vanished. Blake's mother reported him missing that same day. Over two months later, passersby in Summer Grove spotted human remains in a local creek near East Newnan. Those remains were later identified as that of Blake Chappell. An autopsy revealed that Blake died from a gunshot wound to the head. His death was labeled a homicide. There are several suspicious circumstances surrounding Blake's case. How did the purported best night of this 16-year-old's life end with his disappearance and murder? This question remains unanswered, but a look at the timeline leading up to Blake's disappearance, amongst other circumstances in Blake's life, may hold the key to solving his case.

Park’s next film ,Stoker, doesn’t exactly feature a vampire. But it is a blood-drenched gothic fairy tale of sorts. Though not written by Jeong (but by Wentworth Miller of ,Prison Break, fame), ,Stoker, is informed by Park’s familiar concerns about violence, eroticism and the eroticism of violence. In the wake of her father’s death, teenaged India Stoker (Mia Wasikowska) deals with the suspicious homecoming of her long-lost uncle Charlie (Matthew Goode). Suspicion, much like in ,Decision to Leave,, leads to a strange attraction, underscored by a Philip Glass piano duet teeming with sexual tension. This musical foreplay combined with a shared propensity to homicide awakens something natural as well as unnatural in India. Symbolism can be a bit on the nose: a spider crawls up India’s leg and white flowers are splattered with blood in a coming-of-ager where sexual awakening and bloodlust are inextricably linked. Though by no means his best work, ,Stoker,’s qualities are instructive to Park’s follow-up tale of repressed desire.

— BASICS Name: Tanya Kowalsky Age / D.O.B.: 44 / 17 April, 1979 Gender, Pronouns & Sexuality: Femme, She/Her & Queer Hometown: Maywood, New Jersey Affiliation: Non-Corrupt Law Enforcement Job position: Homicide Detective Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice from CUNY Relationship status: Single Children: None Positive traits: Persistent, Audacious, Witty, Clever, Adaptable Negative traits: Cynical, Acerbic, Cantankerous, Insubordinate, Rash

— BIOGRAPHY tw; missing persons, homicide, alcoholism

Story Time.

The first time Tanya Kowalsky knew somebody was lying to her was the day her mom left and never came home. Something in her voice. In the way her eyes were moving. The first time she knew she wanted to put liars in their place was in High School, when Susie Holland, the homecoming queen, turned up dead in the woods and tall grass behind her High School’s Football Field. It was pretty personal - her boyfriend was the prime suspect - driven out of town society despite how distraught he appeared over it all. He was a wreck, but Susie’s secret girlfriend was just as bad for seeing the aftermath roll out from a place of fearful silence.

Tanya knew because she was the secret girlfriend.

She was fifteen that summer. She buried a lot of that pain in the High School burnout life, but when they fingered the librarian to be the one whodunnit during Senior Year and the town went on like they hadn’t ruined two kids lives with suspicion and alienation? That’s when she knew what she wanted to be when she grew up.

She left Maywood the second she could though - too much bad energy.

Big City life took her - loud enough to drown out certain things and big enough to get lost in in the important ways, she rekindled her faith in humanity by finding new family in new community. Old hats playing chess in the parks, the kids on the stoop. She nestled in and spread enough roots during Police Academy to decide it was at least part of hers to defend.

She was working the beat the day the towers fell, an alarm bell wakeup call that set a lot of her priorities on their heads as she processed the grief and collective trauma the whole city shared that day. She’d make precinct detective a couple years later, a promotion that closed one chapter of her life and started another in short order.

She spent the rest of her twenties looking into the small stuff until she earned her place on Homicide. It was here the bulk of her faith in humanity died - the mystique and adventure of solving murders quickly lost with the meat and blood of reality seeping in on all sides. Years wore on and her smooth edges started roughing out before alcohol became a legal recourse and socially acceptable (if only just) medication for the sort of visions that haunted the peripheries of her mind.

There are days where she wants to apply for a division transfer to something less grisly. Criminal Enterprise, Gang Squad, something where she could for a better city and can hold fast a touch of sanity into an avenue of society that has become nearly as vile as the people it claims to want to stop. But she’s too soft to abandon her post. There are too many Susie Hollands and too many assumed endings for her to ever feel good moving away though, and so she keeps it up, trying to hold onto the thin shreds of optimism that nearly two decades of seeing mankind at its worst has left her with.

— WANTED CONNECTIONS / PLOTS

Professional Colleagues One does not spend long sticking their nose into the gritty cracks and crevices frequented by the violent and baleful members of society without cultivating a cadre of comrades in the fight against injustice. Tanya might be prickly, but she knows the value of backup, and even with her general loner mentality she’s not stupid enough to think she can do everything herself. Media A detective with a tendency to shirk command and good optics to get the job done is free real estate to any journalist looking for something to sensationalize. Tanya's not any more reserved around these types, but she's surely just as (if not more) beligerent.

Little Fish Tanya isn’t a dirty cop, but she does know how to prioritize. It’s all about big fish and little fish. She does keep a watchful eye on the little fish though.

Single Female Looking For LoveRomance burns hot and fast with Kowalsky, and she is almost as quick to fall for a girl as she is to push her away out of a desire to protect them from her sometimes self-destructive ways.

Nemesis Everyone’s got a hero but every hero has an enemy, and every Sherlock secretly dreads finding their Moriarty.

Them Dragons n Nem aka The Chronicles of Rhaeneesha and Daemoni went hard last night. Spoilers below do if you didn’t watch keep scrolling heaux and if you didn’t watch, wtf you waiting for 😑

Aight so boom- we open this episode in the Mufuckin Vale y’all. Y’all remember when the 8 finger King sent Daemoni on his way right? Well, Daemoni being the incestuous homicidal maniac that he is decided that it’s not a homecoming without unaliving someone. And that someone was Lady Rhea Targaryen, heiress to Runestone. She was a Lil baddie too. She used her words better than she rode that horse.

We should all know that when Daemoni has on that damn hooded cloak the bullsh1t is sure to follow. I respect her gangsta though. She went out like a G and talked sh1t til the end. I couldn’t find a lie in anything she said.

Now let’s get back to the get back. The eight fingered King, or is it seven fingers? Ion know but them gloves he had on was gloving. The eight fingered king was on the ship and he had yet to get his sea legs because he was looking like a wight from Game of Thrones, all grey and green before he threw up 😑 not his best moment. “Is this your King???” Seriously eight fingers, do better.

Ser Otto Hightower was leaving the Red Keep for the unemployment line. I almost thought he was a robot til he hugged his daughter. Tough love but that battery in her back was unnecessary. Good riddance Kneegah. And may you have the retirement you deserve.

So the Royal retinue went to Driftmark y’all and I LIVED. First of all the castle rivals the Red Keep, but Corlys is the richest Kneegah in Westeros so I wasn’t surprised. The new hand is all “Is this how house Velaryon greets their king” and Laena’s fine a$$ was like “be easy my kneegah, daddy ain’t jumping for y’all uninvited begging a$$es.”

The entryway in High Tide was amazing. The funerary masks remind me of the masks from Benin. I see what they did there.

But NAWT Corlys Receiving ole eight fingers in a throne room of his own. And NAWT the eight fingers begging for an alliance after he snubbed him from the jump. Corlys said my grandpickney gonna be Velaryons, and Eight fingers was like “whatchyu mean Velaryons? We Dragons beech, and Dragons we will remain.” In the end a compromise ws reached and Rhaeneesha is getting hitched to her cousin yall. Honorable mention to Rhaeneesha being an ally for the LGBTQ way back when. She was like ion like Goose, I like Duck so we gon do what needs to be done but you can go on head and eat your duck or goose or whatever it is you like and ima do me. And yes fat meat is indeed greasy.

And about her cousin. Princess Rhaenys knows what typea time her son is on. She also knows that marriage and Raheneesha being the heir is a possible death sentence for them and her future grandchildren. Is she black cuz only black people have those spidey senses built in for imminent danger 🤷🏽‍♀️ anywho, we get a scene of Laenor frolicking with his paramour and it was cute or whatever but not like hot like Rhaeneesha and her sneaky link.

The Queen shall be forever known as Alicent Ms Mixie Messy because why is she so invested in who Rhaeneesha puts her Kewcheepurse on??? Dude in the garden- the new hands son/ is the same one Ser Criston unhorsed. Looks like he got twisted up cuz he was plotting and scheming with his bent body. “Bop it, twist it” why is it his or Alicents business that Rhaeneesha took the Plan Tea??? 🤷🏽‍♀️

Now back on the boat Ser Criston invited Rhaeneesha on an economy class ship to struggle love. He was like “babe we can eat oranges and ship hop and be married because I Luh you gworl.” 😑 Rhaeneesha was like “Bruh I am the Crown, and I’m not Dyck Dizzy enough to give up my inheritance to ship hop.” It was at that moment the course of the upcoming war changed. Ser Criston came down with a case of the spurns. He talm bout soiling his cloak as if he didn’t give up the drawers so easily. Dude was committed. At anytime while unlacing those hundreds of laces on those boots he could have opted out. That scene was giving “Why do fools fall in love” Rhaeneesha gave him the mmmbopshadoopbopbop and now he can’t see straight.

Alicent Ms Mixie Messy pressing Ser Criston will never not be weird. You can’t commit a crime with that jilted kneegah because Ser, no one asked you for that information. He was on some Ray J “I hit it first” nonsense and no one asked.

Issa wedding feast yall. And Jason Lannister went up to the dais looking real goofy. That fake smile that Viserys gave him after he said that dumb sh1t about women not being ready for a battle is today’s equivalent of the “church lady fawk you” 😑

Now them Velaryons are some Majestic kneegahs. Y’all saw the procession??? They came in there like yes we kneegahs with silver locks and dragons.. who fawkin wit us?? It was a moment.

Here comes Alicent Ms Mixie Messy in her house colors and a subtle battle cry and call for treason in the midst of Eight Fingers speech. The disrespect. But y’all tryna tell me no one noticed what she was up to? No one in that hall save for the other Greens was smarter than a fifth grader cuz ain’t no way they couldn’t put two and two together. Ray Charles saw it 👀

The Medieval Cha-Cha Slide was lit. That “Hey” was a whole vibe 😭

Here come Daemoni with his messy a$$. Ser Royce really tried it with accusing him- and rightfully so but Daemoni yet again wins the day. The “you’re evicted” sent me. He don’t GAF about nothing because why was he toying with Rhaeneesha’s emotions in front of her daddy eight fingers face??? I know her kewcheepurse was THUMPING when he grabbed her jaw and he almost made ole eight fingers have a stroke. It was wild.

Joffrey Lonmouth, Laenor’s sneaky link, has a long mouth. Because he pressing Ser Criston at the feast like he knows this man. I’m yelling at the tv “You don’t know this man” when Ser Criston clenched his fist I knew it was a wrap. I thought he was finna pull the blicky and send my boy to the upper room but it went down different.

Laenor getting tossed around like a delicate doll was too much fah me. Ser Harwyn Strong really lived up to his name because he was just tossing kneegahs left and right. Then tossed Rhaeneesha over his shoulder like she didn’t weigh an ounce.

Ser Criston has HANDSSSS. I almost felt bad for Ser Longmouth. If “Talk sh1t get hit” was a person, it’s him. I’m like you shoulda just sat there and ate your food. Now look. Blood and brains on the floor. Hole in your head. He was weighed and measured and came up short. Ser Criston put the paws on him, minked minked minked his a$$ and sadly he didn’t live to see another day.

I felt cheated because how did it pop off? Were there words after that? Or did it take a minute for Ser Criston to realize the kneegah was testing his gangsta 🤔

Them Westerosi Kneegahs are a different breed for sure. I guess it ain’t a real wedding unless somebody makes it to the creators throne room 🤷🏽‍♀️ but the way they made Laenor marry Rhaeneesha with his sneaky links blood and brains on the floor is a different type of disassociating. But it’s Westeros so I guess.

Ser Criston playing the victim talm bout he was dishonored so he gonna take his own life and here comes Alicent Ms Mixie Messy to fully bring him over to her side. I wanna feel bad for Criston, I just can’t knowing how this whole thing ends and the role he played in it. Rhaeneesha kewcheepurse must be bomb because she had all the kneegahs there checking for her. Ser Harwyn, Daemoni, Criston. Sis has options 🤷🏽‍♀️ and I’m not mad at her.

All in all we Light The way saw little action but a lot of setup. 10/10 would recommend.

If you enjoyed this recap, like, comment and share!

Til next week

Including link: https://en.wikipedia.org/

"In an isolated mountain chalet near Grenoble, novelist Sandra Voyter is forced to reschedule her interview with a female student while her husband, university lecturer Samuel Maleski, plays music loudly in their attic. Their visually impaired son, Daniel, returns from a walk with his guide dog Snoop to find Samuel dead from an apparent fall from the open attic window.

Sandra insists that the fall must have been accidental. Her old friend and lawyer, Vincent, suggests the possibility of suicide, while Sandra recalls her husband's attempt to overdose on aspirin six months earlier, after going off antidepressants. Daniel's conflicting accounts of what happened shortly before his father's death, combined with the revelation that Samuel sustained a head wound before his body hit the ground and an audio recording of a fight Samuel and Sandra had the day before, prompt Sandra's indictment on charges of homicide.

During the trial, Sandra's defense team claims Samuel fell from the attic window and hit his head on a shed below, while the prosecution posits that Sandra hit him with a blunt object and pushed him from the second-floor balcony. During a courtroom argument with Samuel's psychiatrist, Sandra admits her resentment towards her husband due to his partial responsibility for the accident that led to Daniel's impaired vision.

In the recorded fight, Samuel accuses Sandra of plagiarism, infidelity and exerting control over his life, before their protracted argument turns physically violent. The prosecution claims that all the violence came from Sandra. She counters that while she had slapped Samuel, the rest of the violence heard was her husband beating on himself. After Sandra admits to an affair with a woman the year before Samuel's death, the prosecution argues that Samuel's loud music indicated jealousy over Sandra's flirting with the interviewer, leading to the physical confrontation later. The prosecutor also notes Sandra's pattern of writing personal conflicts into her stories, and how murdering her husband mirrors a minor character's thoughts from her most recent novel. In turn, Sandra protests that one recording does not represent the nature of their relationship, nor do the words of a character in a novel reflect her own inclinations.

A distraught Daniel insists on testifying before closing arguments the following Monday. The judge lays strict ground rules to prevent anyone from influencing his testimony and brings in a court monitor, Marge. Daniel then asks that Sandra leave their house for the weekend so he can be alone with Marge and Snoop. He recalls that when Samuel overdosed, Snoop also fell sick, possibly due to having eaten Samuel's vomit. He then deliberately feeds Snoop aspirin and finds it has the same effect, which aligns with Sandra's testimony. Daniel confides to Marge his anguish, and she advises him that if he doesn't know what is really true, he can instead decide what's true for him.

On the witness stand, Daniel says he can comprehend his father taking his own life but not the murder scenario. He says that when he and Samuel were driving Snoop to the veterinarian, Samuel spoke about the need to be prepared that those he loves will die and to know that his life will go on, which Daniel now interprets as his father's own suicidal thoughts. Sandra is acquitted after Daniel's testimony. When she returns home, Daniel tells her he was afraid of her homecoming and she says that she was too; the two embrace. As Sandra heads to bed, she"

➤ OPEN: MATTHEW, 37, PROFESSOR, HUMAN

FULL NAME: Matthew Orville NICKNAME(S): Matt PRONOUNS: He/Him BIRTHDAY: June 1, 1986 AGE: 37 STATUS: Professor SUBJECT: Art SPECIES: Human SPECIAL POWERS: Mediumship & Mild Clairvoyance SEXUALITY: Bisexual I AM A: Switch I WANT A: Any TURN-ONS: Oral sex (giving and receiving), rough sex, outdoor sex, hair pulling, wrestling, public sex, light bondage, spanking TURN-OFFS: Bathroom play, pain play, feet

➤ BIOGRAPHY

The boy that sees dead people... sort of. That wasn't entirely how it worked for Matt. He was born that way, but he was always certain that it was just normal, and everyone saw random smoky people hovering over or around others. Only when he asked, 'who's that blonde lady following Mom around?' after his mother's sister died did he finally figure out that he was not normal. Matt's the only child to a journalist and a comic artist, leading a fairly normal life. They grew up in a modern house around the corner from the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, so Matt's childhood was peppered with sun, surf, and an occasional conversation with the deceased. It wasn't like the movies, where there was a séance and eyes rolling in the back of heads. He often just saw spirits near others. They'd stand behind, next to, or were even over top them, like on their back. It was never scary, not to him--it just was. Then it started to get in the way a little--informing people a woman was pregnant before she even knew herself, or knowing who was winning homecoming king and queen before the announcement. Odd stuff. So to counter it, Matt found what others in his spot have before--drugs. To Matt's credit, he was never out of control. Sure, the van he'd saved up for was always a little hazy and constantly smelled of skunk, and sure his eyes were often red, but he was seeing less of the ghosts. It wasn't an addiction, but it was a preferred state of being at one point. It was more fun to skip class and graffiti buildings, or stay out too late at concerts. But eventually, he had to grow up. College at a local school was easy enough, being able to live at home. But home had cemeteries, and weird murders and mysterious deaths and while he was trying not to use his psychedelics as crutches, it was increasingly harder. The day after he graduated, he moved - far up into the mountains, where it was just him and nature in a cabin. One day, his roommate from college, who was now a junior detective--who remembered Matt's gifts--called him up to help with a homicide... which quickly turned into two, then three. Matt could see visions of a silver sedan, of a short, burly and bearded man, and the girls he was killing. Shockingly enough, he was caught, the tips Matt was giving them being the thing that pushed the case over the edge. It made headlines across the region, and with the true crime aficionados of the modern age and social media, word spread fast. His solitude in a cabin in the woods was no longer achievable, and one impulsive evening online got him a one way ticket to an island college, bags packed, and the strange new title of professor.

➤ PERSONALITY

✚ Witty, helpful, understanding ▬ Lazy, unkempt, forgetful

➤ ESTABLISHED CONNECTIONS

None

Matthew’s faceclaim is Ryan Gosling. // Could Matthew be right for you?
