#i think we already knew Michael gets turned on by David

[ingravinoveritas]

I saw someone mention this on Twitter and absolutely felt the need to write a post about it, because...dear god.

This moment is from episode 3 of GO season 2, where Crowley is demonically fibbing to Muriel about humans and how best to ascertain whether they have fallen in love. In this gif, David as Crowley is saying "Don't hesitate to ask me if you have any other questions about love, Inspector Constable" and Michael as Aziraphale is...doing that.

The that in question isn't just shamelessly looking David up and down, or the breathy exhale that follows--both of which would be more than worth talking about as deliciously delightful acting choices on Michael's part. What really caught my attention here is that in this moment, Michael's pupils are noticeably dilated.

"Why is this important?" You may be wondering. Well, it's important for two reasons: 1) That dilated pupils signal a change in emotion, most notably arousal and attraction to someone; and 2) That it is an involuntary response to stimuli:

Actors can do many amazing things. They can convey a myriad of emotions with vocal tone, gestures, and even the tiniest of microexpressions. But one thing you categorically cannot act is unprompted arousal. Michael is a brilliant actor, but there is no possible way for him to have summoned an involuntary biological response on command. In short: This is not Aziraphale reacting to Crowley. This is Michael reacting to David.

The same thing occurs in the aftermath of The Kiss in episode 6, where we again see that Michael's pupils are absolutely enormous:

Obviously, this is a very emotional scene, so it would make sense for Michael to react to it on a deep level. But the fact that his pupils are this big right as he's touching his lips and thinking of David kissing him is too powerful to ignore.

As I have said before, I will never tell anyone that they have to ship Michael and David. I do ship them myself, and have for the last four years now--despite the pushback/occasional hate Anons I have received--because I have noticed so many little things like this over and over again. But what I would say to folks who are anti-RPF or folks who have noticed similar things but are afraid to say so out loud is: Isn't it time to maybe consider acknowledging what Michael has been telling us (both in words and very clearly with his body/expressions) about his feelings for David? To put aside the rationalizing and the qualifying just for a moment to look at what is actually in front of us? There are a lot of terrible things in this world, but someone falling in love with his Scottish best friend--even if said Scotsman is married, even if it is complicated, or messy, or inconvenient--shouldn't be one of them.

Michael has said that so much of what is on screen in GO season 2 is the result of his relationship with David off-screen, and everything that has happened between them since season 1. Nowhere is that more evident than in the two moments above, as well as countless other little moments (even wordless) between Aziraphale and Crowley. I'm just so grateful that Michael and David have shared that love with us, in whatever form it may take...

Season 4 reaction

I might just do this for every season cos i need to rant (Autism things. Iykyk).

Ok. 4x03. The whole Eddie and Hildy thing is so fucking funny. And Buck and Chris teaming up to get the coffee maker is so domestic. I love it so much lmao

And naturally i watched 9-1-1: Lone Star 2x03. Ive seen some episodes so i have some knowledge about the characters, but not much. But its so funny. TK always knew lmao

Then we have 4x05. Buck Begins. Man i almost cried so many times. I knew about the Daniel thing but i didnt know the whole story and. Whew. Its a lot. But im glad he has the 118 and Athena to help him and to be his family. Maddie to. I can see both of their sides tho. But when Buck got the clean bill of health Eddie was just like a husband waiting for him to come home lmao. I love them so much. And the ending scene with Maddie and Buck is so sweet 🥹

And i know its not my usual topic, but in 4x07, the whole plot with David, Michael, and Bobby is so funny. I dont know much about Michael’s storyline, so i am actually clueless as to how it turns out. But the three of them are so great together and i hope to see more!

4x08. I know some about Taylor. So the fact she is back is making me 😠. And she did not have to call Buck out like that. Homeboy has been through some shit and is trying to figure it out. But Buck and Chris’ friendship is so pure and i love them so much❤️❤️

4x11. Athena’s “dont even think about it Buck” has me CACKLING. She is such a mom to him and its amazing

And Jealous Eddie in 4x12 with the treasure hunt? Homeboy does NOT like Taylor (cant blame him tho). And Chim and Hen’s friendship is fucking amazing. But the whole 118 trying to find the treasure is so funny. The fact that Ravi found it first tho? I love that man

4x13. Eddie is already having doubts about Ana. Homeboy does not like women and you cannot convince me otherwise. And the scene of Eddie getting shot made me cry. I can definitely see why people think that this is where the Buddie arc was supposed to happen. Cos they held eye contact and Eddie reached out for Buck. And that could be seen as platonic but knowing everything we do, it just seems like it was a set up for a romantic arc

And 4x14 starts with Buck crawling under a fire truck to get to Eddie. Without a second thought, he rolled under a firetruck, the thing that caused so much trauma, to get to Eddie. And Eddie was so concerned that Buck was hurt even though he was the one bleeding. And i guess Taylor can have her good moments. But the scene where Buck tells Chris what happened breaks my heart. He was trying to hold it together for Chris but once he knew that Eddie made it through surgery? He couldnt hold in his emotions. And then when they are talking about the will. Its so soft between them. And Eddie just knows that Buck wouldnt say no to taking in Chris. And i think that just shows how close of a bond they have. This was totally a set up for a romantic arc, but of course F*x had to shut that down 😒

“Because, Evan” 😭😭😭

And i love that Albert is gonna be a firefighter. I love that man

Based on the shows history with Eddie, I’m not expecting the Abuela and Shannon pop ups to do anything more then propel him into the find new wife for himself and new mother for Chris mission successful. Especially with Edy still on set and them almost being done with the season. Why bother going for a better story when a lazy makes no sense hetero story will do just fine. It’s their specialty when it comes to Eddie after all. Plus They already got that extra queer rep with Buck and Tommy 🙃

Yeah, *sigh* I feel the same on the Eddie front.

God forbid the talent that is Ryan will get a worthy story when we get two white dudes getting the interesting storylines.

I mean, much as love Buck being thrown into curious situations, I am getting tired of the storylines Eddie keep getting, because that's always more of the same, and that's exhausting.

If they weren't going to invest in his story they could have tied him to the first gf he had - being the serial monogamist that he is - and have his storyline revolve around domestic problems, new babies and managing that with work - at least we'd be clear of what his essence is aside from loving Buck like they've been married and intimate for years.

They had that queer rep with Henren and David and Michael - which WAS a great rep and such a well written relationship! I miss them and Michael's interactions with Bobby are sorely missing as well.

I don't think that Buck's storyline is as happy and healthy as ppl make it to be, Tommy literally left him for feeling uncomfortable and fibbing in front of his best friend because he's newly minted out of the closet and maybe he wanted to figure this out by himself first before sharing it with the people closest to him?

Tommy had no right to get upset, and if he wasn't sure of them, he shouldn't have agreed to go to that wedding with Buck, he should have said that he understands where Buck is coming from and to take this slow and that there is no pressure - and maybe keep this friendly until they figure out what they want to be together.

Buck, it felt to me, that has done what he did, the chasing that he said he wouldn't do, because in a certain way he is still in a place where he pleases people even though it is his journey to make and no one should push him to get to that finish line as fast as possible.

Like I said before this is more of the same, Buck does this chasing because like Taylor said, and not in a kind way mind you, that he can't stand not being liked by everyone.

Eddie nudging him to call tommy wasn't exactly the best thing either, because would Buck have still done it if he wasn't told to?

A lot of things don't sit well with me in this story, I've made journeys with my friends when they first came out, one as early as the seventh grade, it is not something that becomes normal immediately, I also saw after the fact what happened when one is shoved out of the closet to his family and friends by force. And how my best friend still bears the guilt of being gay almost 20+years later because that's not how he was raised, and his father didn't accept him, and his first serious boyfriend was a demanding asshole.

He didn't seem like this to us, he was friendly and seemed like a really good guy, but neither one of us knew what really happened there until my friend opened up about it years later.

So when I say Buck's story feels rushed, I talk from experience.

So maybe we have queer rep (which we had before only it wasn't bi) but it doesn't feel like quite there to me, maybe it's the flawed writing, maybe that's the way it was intended to be told to get to some kind of turning point and epiphanies, who knows? I've learned not to expect higher purpose from this show.

I will tell you that though, if the whole Eddie story is to push him to somehow marry M I will retire from this show, I mean that is the laziest form of writing there is, and makes this show completely unwatchable for me, because there is no way we were dragged 7 seasons just so that Eddie can force marry some lukewarm LI out of the need to follow the traditional hetero normative need he was raised into.

Especially since originally Eddie was the one who was supposed to be the coming out story, it would be disappointing on so many levels and I'm not even touching buddie here.

Ryan deserves better than to end with that kind of crappy story-telling.

The Lost Boys favorite musicals

David: 

 The Phantom Of The Opera

No matter how hard he try's to cover it up he’s a sap and a hopeless romantic 

He watched it and was 100 percent on the Phantoms side. And when Christine didn't choose him he definitely balled his eyes outs 

And Paul will never let him forget it 

He has also been caught multiply times belting out the songs multiply times when he thinks he’s alone

But if anyone ever brings it up he will deny it

All the boys notice a large similarity between the phantom and David. Specifically when the phantom tells Christine to “  Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams, Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before” or “ Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before, Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me” 

Remember when you did that to Michael? 

He sits there with a clip board and takes manipulation notes 

Paul: 

Beetlejuice the Musical

This one was a little difficult but I think he would love this one, cause its crazy at all times

We all know he has a hard time paying attention but this musicals fast past and has loud funny songs and cool lights that just grab your attention and are hard to ignore 

He loved the original Beetlejuice show and movie but what's better then getting songs to screech to

Loves the “whole being dead thing” cause he’s dead to 

He either dressed up as Beetlejuice or miss Argentina for Halloween after watching it 

And tried to convince the others to dress up with him, key word being tried   

He also likes Sweeney Todd… for obvious reasons

Marko: 

Newsies 

Have a theory that when he came to America he was a Brooklynn newsie boy before David turned him

He was just a mean little newsie from Brooklynn who bite people in fights

Which he never forgets to mention when they watch the movie 

He absolutely loves the singing, but the dancing is what really catches his eye

Not a week after watching it he has the whole chorography down and loves to dance to it on the boardwalk or teach it to other people on the boardwalk

Safe to say he has a gaggle of theatre nerd friends on the boardwalk

He tried to teach the other boys the chorography but the only one who would even try was Paul 

His favorite character is definitely Spot, he likes when he shows up during that one fight scene and says “never fear Brooklynn hears” 

I could also see him really like Chicago 

Dwayne 

Les Misérables

We already know mans a communist 

He’d be ready to overthrow a corrupt government 

He LOVES Fantine cause she's such a good mother and he’d be really sad but prepared to cut off his hair for his kid

Always cry's when that kid makes himself a martyr cause he reminds him of Laddie 

For that matter all the kids remind him of Laddie 

But hey its called Les Misérables for a reason 

When they sing “master of the house” and are robbing all the people it reminds him off all the other boys when they bring people back to the cave 

Thanks @britany1997​ One of your posts inspired this lol

Chatterbox

For so long you had hated talking. Fearing social interaction and being at the mercy of others' scrutiny. But it was different with them, with your boys, they were so sweet with you, so understanding,

It had taken you months to make even a whisper. Your diagnosis wasn't on the harder end of things so to speak, but you still had to have a great level of trust to speak to someone, but your boys were special, something about them made you want to sing.

You still remembered the first time you spoke, how their eyes widened and you were showered with kisses and surrounded by purring chests.

"Do you want this one or that one?"

Marko was standing beside you, leaning over a booth that had popped up selling jewelry over the summer. He had all but dragged you there when you finally finished work, wanting to buy you something to match with him and the rest of the boys.

You had ended up getting a thick bangle, it was decorated with blue stones and was heavy on your wrist, the weight of it was grounding and you had fiddled with it the entire way back to where the other three were standing.

Soon enough Dwayne's arms had encompassed you, strong and protecting, keeping you safe and sound. He pressed a kiss to your jaw, nuzzling it before passing you to David who wrapped his arm possessively around your waist.

"Did you get something dear?"

Nodding you lifted your wrist, showing off the piece you had been adoring since it had been pushed over your hand.

Paul whined, complaining about how he wanted something to match with you, tussling with Marko who had apparently dishonored him.

Dwayne rolled his eyes, moving to lean beside you, "you two know the lady's gonna be there all summer right?"

Paul paused, Markos head trapped in his armpit "but I wanted to go with them!"

You giggled, "we can still go, it's open all night."

They all paused, eyes snapping to you. Paul's arms became slack and Marko rushed to you, picking you up and spinning you around, shouting his adoration for you.

"Oh, my little bunny!" You squeaked, voice vanishing as your face flushed, realizing what you had done.

From then on you had spoken a lot more, at some point you had become quite the talker, engaging in almost endless conversation about anything and everything. Your boys always indulged you, finding your voice rather soothing. They wanted nothing more than to hear it for an eternity.

You were nearing twenty now, still, the youngest compared to them but feeling older by the second. They wanted you to turn, suggesting that you would be better as one of their own, well a vampire, you were already theirs.

But no. You wanted to wait. You loved the sun, the daytime called to you even as your body clock changed to suit their needs.

The four of them had become quite irritable about it, but you just brushed it off, understanding how stubborn they could be.

The only thing on your mind was how your one-year anniversary was coming up. You wanted it to be special, it was your first serious relationship after all, and so you had been talking to Star about it who had been more than eager to help you plan things.

She was well versed in sign language you see, so you appreciated how no matter what you were able to talk to her.

-

"So I was thinking we could..." the two of you were hidden behind the wispy veils she had collected and hung around her bed, legs kicking the air as the both of you lay on your fronts and fawned over the planner you had brought with you, snacking on red vines to keep your energy going.

Star was a half, that much you knew. But she and Michael would soon turn together, soon becoming officially part of the pack.

Yet you refused to even think about it.

While the two of you schemed the boys sat in the center of the cave with Michael, drinking and smoking, talking and thinking.

"Have you said anything to them about it," Michael took the joint offered to him by Dwayne, legs stretched out and cheeks flushed slightly from the Santa Carla heat, "I mean, I'm sure they're just nervous, its not an easy thing to do."

That was something they tended to forget, they had been undead for so long it was natural to them. But you were still so painfully human, fragile and weak in their eyes. They could only protect you so much.

We're worried. Michaels eyes flitted over to Markos, the land meeting the ocean, the brunette nodded for the curly haired blonde to continue, we think they'll leave.

Michael scoffed, choking on air before laughing loudly, stopping when Star's head turned to look at him.

"God. That's dumb and you know it, they love you."

David bristled, he knew it was true, your relationship with them was like no other. But this barrier was a lot bigger than others.

They wanted you to become just like them. To be theirs for all eternity.

If only they knew how dangerous it was to push someone to the edge, to force them into such a decision.

-

Star had left after two hours of planning with you, Michael coming to retrieve her and pulling her out of the cave, disappearing in a whirlwind of soft touches and laughter.

Dwayne had embraced you soon enough, picking you up and carrying you to the rest of your mates, letting you stretch out over his lap as he cuddled you on one of the broken sofas they had beside the fountain.

His nose was pressed into your hair, breathing in your scent as he spoke, "how are you little dove?"

You smiled, leaning further into his hold, breathing in his scent in a similar fashion. You wondered how he would smell if you turned.

If

That word caught their attention as it passed through your mind.

"Pup..." you looked to David, his eyes were cold and made you wince, not knowing what had set him off.

"What's wrong..." you trailed off, noticing how all of their eyes were dark, suddenly feeling quite uncomfortable in Dwayne's hold as his fingers dug painfully into your flesh.

"We need to talk."

That was it. The dreaded sentence.

You looked up at Dwayne, his eyes burned your own and you immediately looked away.

Marko and Paul moved closer, the two of them leaning on the fountain as the four of them watched you.

"What- what's wrong?" your hands were clenched, muscles tensed as your eyes flitted between their own, not brave enough to meet them.

"You know what."

You flinched at David's tone, body curling into Dwayne's jacket which had been placed over your shoulder.

"You said you didn't mind," and that was true, they didn't. But the thought that had been passing through your mind said enough, you were unsure, unsure enough to do something rash, "you said you could wait."

Paul scoffed, mind alot clearer and full of irritation from the conversation that had earlier, "we're waiting for nothing."

Your eyes met his, not enjoying how blank they were, when they were usually filled with joy and mischievousness.

"You don't want to turn."

"I didn't say that-"

"You didn't need to"

You pulled away from Dwayne, sliding towards the opposite end of the couch, shoulders tense as you wrapped your arms across your front.

"Why are you bringing this up, we already talked about it and you said-"

"Stop talking." your mouth snapped shut, chest constricting in an uncomfortable fashion. They never said those words to you, refusing to send you back into the silence you had been hiding in for so long. Yet they slipped so effortlessly from David's lips.

Dwayne tried to reach for you, hand retreating with your body flinched away from him.

David sighed, sitting straighter in his wheelchair, looking to you and trying to meet your eyes with his own, "we heard you and Star talking," his irritation grew as you turned away from him, choosing to look at the cave floor, "you can't lie to us kitten, you have to turn either way."

-

You hadn't spoken to them for the rest of the night.

Instead, you had been actively avoiding them, returning to where Star was pretending not to listen in, curling beside her and letting the girl play with your hair.

Something about it had set you off. Maybe it was their tone, how cruel they were when they spoke to you, how they told you to stop talking.

You wanted to turn. You really did.

But it was complicated and you hated change. You knew the moment you began such a big transformation your life, or lack thereof, would be permanently different.

No longer would you enjoy the warmth of the sun, daytime as a whole would be unappealing to you.

Paul and Marko had already been laying it on thick recently, how much more fun life was when you were a creature of the night.

Telling you how food tasted a thousand times better, how if you fed well your veins felt full of energy.

How much stronger, faster and bravery you would be.

You wanted to turn. You would turn.

Your anniversary was in three days. And sitting in your room had made it harder and harder not to dwell on the thought of seeing the boys again.

Star was supposed to swing by at some point, probably with Michael in an attempt to smooth things over.

knock knock

And there it was.

Hopping out of bed you shuffled down the hall, chewing your lip as you approached the door.

You made it halfway before you realised the silhouette visible through the obscure glass.

David

Obviously, since neither Star nor Michael had hair as blindingly bright as his.

Maybe if you didn't move he wouldn't-

Never mind, now you could see Marko there too with his vibrantly decorated coat.

"Doll?"

The eldest's voice carried through the doorway, his knocking becoming louder as he used his whole fist.

You winced at the sound of it, his tone was on the more irritated side and you knew he would break the door if he hit it hard enough.

Stepping forward you moved closer, walking until you were just a foot away from the door, placing your hand on the glass.

You heard a sigh, watching as David shifted to lay his palm flat where yours was.

"You gonna open the door pup?"

You didn't respond, choosing to maintain your silence.

Marko went for the doorhandle, giving it a twist, growling in annoyance at the fact you were keeping it locked.

Meeting David's eyes he sent him a nod, moving around the house to test out your back door.

Keeping you distracted he nudged the small postal slot with his fingers, opening it so his voice would pass through better, "sweet, what's wrong? Talk to us-"

You scoffed, cutting him off and shuffling back.

He growled as a warning, "if you wont open the door I'll break it down, ignoring me wont help you."

Your chest siezed at what was clearly a threat, staring at the doorhandle just as you heard a sound from the kitchen.

Looking away for a moment you saw a shadow pass by the entrance to the kitchen, turning back to the front door showed you David had vanished.

Taking the small window of opportunity you had you bolted, heading up the stairs and closing the hatch at the entrance before they could pass through, hearing the resounding thud as Paul slammed into it.

Clearly, the other two of your mates had showed up without you noticing, though they could have been there the whole time waiting for you to give up.

It wasn't the first time they had dropped by since your little disagreement.

Not that you knew that.

They always made sure to check up on you when you weren't feeling particularly social.

Usually, it was because your mind was stressing you out, and this time it was, but only because of four certain boys.

One of which was slamming his hands on the door, pushing it up even as you lay on top of it, keeping it closed with your weight.

"Let us in! This isn't helping idiot-"

No speaking only in your mind you mimicked the actions of the person beneath you, slamming your hands down Go away

It went quiet, the four of them speaking in the same way you had.

Pressing your ear to the door you tried to listen for anything, only recognising the sound of boots slamming down the steps as two of them retreated.

"The longer you keep this up kitten the harder this will be," that was Dwayne, his voice deeper than usual, "come on out, we'll play nice."

You gulped, eyeing the window across from you warily as two figures rose in the air in front of it, Marko waving his fingers at you teasingly.

ITS BEEN A MINUTE SINCE IVE BEEN HERE BUT ANYWAY

I wonder how the slashers would be like with a Remus Lupin kinnie? like wears, grandpa sweaters, always has a book, drinking so much tea, listens to Queen, ABBA, David Bowie, and is like the calm and collected one in the group? is like the mom/dad/parental figure of the group?

Author : "Hey there ! It has been a minute indeed. 😂 I just finished your request. I hope you'll like it.)

I think you and Michael would hit it off, as he would see an equal in you.

He would be a big fan of the grandpa sweaters and you would have matching tea cups for your parenting-free days. (aka when the nurses or Norman are taking care of them)

You would also take turns watching the "children". He would trust you in keeping an eye on them and you would exchange book names, as Michael is an avid reader. You would even have your little book club and share your opinions on different books.

Michael *smiles when you sit down next to himand wordlessly puts on Dancing Queen because he knows you like it*

Penny wouldn't understand you. He's the troublemaker, the very excited nerve-wracking alien child with no self-control and he wouldn't understand how someone can be so calm..like, how do you do it ?!

Penny *staring at you* : "Are you dead ?"

You *smile knowingly before turning the page of your book* : "No, Penny..I'm not dead."

Penny : "Then why aren't you moving ? And drinking hot water ?"

You *shrug* : "It's soothing."

Penny : "...Can I have some too ?"

You *smile and nod* : "Sure."

He would then spend the day mimicking you, sipping your tea and tilting his head to the music to confuse the other slashers. Still a troublemaker, just likes spending some quality time with you..

Freddy would appreciate you taste in music and barge into the room once you've put on music to dance, especially Queen.

Freddy *kicks your front door open and starts singing* : "WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS ! WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS !"

However, he would also be the very troublesome child who often causes lots problems. To be honest ? He would be the one you would have to keep an eye out for the most.

Pennywise and Freddy *put whipped cream into the shower pipes*

You *arrive and arch a quizzical eyebrow at them*

Pennywise and Freddy *quickly raise their finger accusatively at each other* : "He did it !"

Freddy doesn't have an off-switch. He has a lot of energy and would make sure to try your patience every chance he gets.

Pennywise has already this kind of tough grandpa attitude, which means—every morning before the slashers wake up—he goes outside to relax on his favorite rocking chair. He likes to just stare at the landscape and get lost in thought. He would never admit it, but he still likes having company sometimes.

You *smile when you see him and gesture to the chair next to him* : "Is this seat taken ?"

Him *glances at it before shrugging* : "Nah. You can take it. Doesn't make a difference to me.."

Just so you know, he put that chair there. He knew—hoped—you would come.

He was surprised when you offered him a sweater and even pretended not to be interested at all at first, only to wear it everyday afterwards..Congrats on winning that grumpy clown's heart.

Jason and Brahms would feel safe around you, which is a rather remarkable achievement as they tend not to trust anyone. They would relax in your company and make up their own "no disturbance" rule around you. It means you would be the person they would come to if they need a timeout from the others. Or, simply for you to read to them, as Jason doesn't know how to read and Brahms likes to have someone read to him.

(They also like you grandpa sweaters and Jason finds it very difficult not to sleep on you when you read to him.)

Five actually liked you from the start. You are quiet, collected and never put your nose in other's people's business, which Five finds quite enjoyable considering the many doctors who tried to understand him and pick his brain over the years.

Maybe it also has something to do with the fact that you always think of him when you prepare yourself a cup of tea and bring him a cup of coffee too. The first time you did it, he was skeptical and took a tentative sip first before thanking you. But, as you seemed to be "good enough" to his very high standards, he was very quick to appreciate your company and you would even say, you became friends..(which is the highest form of honorary title coming from Five.)

Five *when you bring him a cup of coffee* : "Please. Stay. Forever, if possible ?"

Norman is actually your twin. I'm not kidding.

Loves grandpa sweaters.

Loves tea.

He is rather quiet and knows how to manage the slashers when the situation requires it. I think you would have a good relationship built on trust.

He would keep an eye on the slashers while you're away and he would let you keep an eye on the residents in his hotel if he has an emergency.

You would have a lot of different topics to talk about and even Mama Bates would warm up to you. Eventually.

You *already turned the kettle on* : "Do you want a cup of tea ?"

Norman *smiles at the proposition* : "Why thank you, my dear ! Absolutely !"

[house-of-slayterr]

Dwayne. And Michael. Just chilling with each other and getting high.

The other boys had insisted on going out to the boardwalk today. But Dwayne was getting tired of the same old same old. He knew the terror twins would cause some chaos, and either he or David would have to step in to get them out of trouble. It was exhausting. Almost like having two vampire toddlers with you at all times. So he asked to stay behind. Of course Paul called him lame for it, but David understood and bid him farewell for the night.

Micheal however, was bored out of his mind. When he spotted David on the board walk, her thought perhaps he’s see what the vampire was up to.

“Good evening Micheal” David said in a fake formal voice.

Micheal rolled his eyes behind his sunglasses.

“You do know the sun is nowhere in sight, right fledgling?” David mocked.

“Yeah Yeah. What are you guys up to?” Micheal asked.

“Paul’s off somewhere making out with some Bloke, Marko found a midnight snack, and I’m waiting for Star and Laddie to bring back soda.” David puffed out a plume of smoke.

“Hmm, you didn’t mention Dwayne.” Micheal observed.

It wasn’t meant to be loud enough, but of course David heard it. He was a vampire after all.

“Dwayne’s back at the cave, wanted a rest day.” David shrugged.

David watched as Micheal stumbled int he direction of the cave, his choice clear. He was amused who used to everything Micheal was getting, not longer freaking out by the whole vampire thing.

Dwayne was shocked when he heard footsteps, not expecting the boys to be back yet. He was even more surprised when he saw Micheal.

“What are you doing up here fledgling?”

It’s something he’d taken to calling the younger half vampire. With his flat tone it sounded more like an insult, but it’s as intended to be endearing. Micheal was David’s, but that didn’t mean the other boys weren’t allowed to have affections for the boy.

“Bored.” He hummed mindlessly.

Dwayne let out a rare, breathy chuckle. Something light and airy, a feeling he normally only got around the youngest pack member. Dwayne Patted the couch next to him.

“And Paul and Marko couldn’t help you with that?” He asked amused.

“Paul was sucking face, while Marko was sucking neck.”

Another short laugh.

“Still avoiding blood I see. Star’s not much better.” The Vamprie commented. “It’s not that scary you know. You’re first kill. Actually gives you quite the rush.”

“Some of us still have our humanity” Micheal mumbled.

It was amusing. Dwayne was perhaps the most human in the group. Still sharing affections the others had long forgotten. Still with a shred of morality outside basic survival instinct. But even he didn’t mind killing all that much. He only ate people who deserved it. He saw how tense the boy was.

“You need to relax Micheal.”

“Easy for you to say.”

“Let me help you.”

“Why?”

“Because I like you fledgling, I’m routing for you.”

Dwayne was up from the couch in a heart beat. Searching his way through Paul’s little cove for the thing he needed. It wasn’t hard to find, Paul bought the best weed California has to offer. There were a few rolled blunts already made and Dwayne was sure Paul wouldn’t mind. He came back to the couch and offered one to Micheal.

“Come on, live a little.” Dwayne smirked.

Micheal accepted the contraband. Dwayne lit it with one of the many lighters David had lying around, then lighting his own. The boys smoked in silence for a few mins, just letting the sensation was over them. Micheal was the first to speak.

“Do you think I have a chance with her?” He asked.

“Who?” Dwayne knew who he was talking about, he just wanted to hear the younger boy say it.

“Star. She just so, so- gorgeous. And pretty, and like a- like a STAR!” Micheal put emphasis on the last word.

It was cute, how excited he got. And all it took was a little Pot to calm his nerves and get him to talk.

“I mean I don’t want to mess things up with David, but I really like her man. Imagine- imagine if we turned together. Wouldn’t that be hot.”

Dwayne’s face flushed a little at the thought of Star and Micheal feeding off the same poor victim. Seeing their full vampire faces for the first time, watching them grow into their strength. It was exhilarating. He remembered when he was turned, what it felt like.

“Yeah, and who would you pick?”

Micheal laughed, thinking it over.

“One of those No food Surf Nazi’s that’s always trying to flirt with her. They’ve got no respect. None!”

“Maybe you should tell Star.”

“Yeah right. ‘He Star, you know what guy that’s been bothering you, want to bite into his neck and feed on him until his heart stops?’ So romantic.”

Dwayne laughed.

“We’ll when you put it like that- any vampire would be crazy to decline your offer.” He gave the kid a big grin.

They were similar in age, technically. But his vampire years made him much older than the boy sat next to him. It was like being a mentor. A Senior trying to help out the Freshman.

“What if i don’t even do it right.”

Now he let out a real laugh, almost choking. Poor Micheal, worried about performance issues. It was almost comical.

“Bitings real easy Micheal.” He scotched closer to the boy. “You just gotta get in close, flirt a little, scare them maybe. Whatever you’re into”

Micheal looked him in the eyes as the vampire moved closer.

“Corner them.” Dwayne put both hands on either side of Micheal trapping him on the couch. The boys locked eyes as a grin grew on Dwayne’ face.

“And when they start begging, you block them out. Lean in close right here” he tapped the boys jugular vein.

Micheal swallowed thickly. He’d never been bitten before. Maybe knowing what it felt like would make him less anxious, it couldn’t be that bad could it.

“And when you feel their heart beat speed up, you sink in”

A small pinch was felt on Micheal’s neck as a surge of electricity went through him. Dwayne’s legs we in between his own, pinning them open and he was pinned to the couch. He leaned his head back, giving the older vampire more access. It felt… good? Did all victims feel this way? Perhaps the bite was a gift, not torture. That would ease Star’s mind if he told her right? Then they could be together forever.

A small groan left his mouth at the thought, the pleasure of the bite mixing in with it. He felt the vibrations of a chuckle from Dwyane’s lips. Dwayne pulled away, leaving Micheal’s neck cold.

“Somebodies excited.”

“That’s not fair. How do you expect me to concentrate when I’m stoned out of my mind right now.”

“That’s the best part. You taste better this way anyways.”

Dwayne leaned down and bit into the other wide of the boys neck. It wasn’t often vampires would feed from other vampires, or even halflings. But Dwayne couldn’t help himself. Something about Micheal was just so… Tasty. He had to have a bite, and once he tasted him, he couldn’t stop. He was getting more high from the weed in Micheal’s system and it felt heavenly.

Neither of the boys noticed other footsteps arrive.

“Well, well, well, what do we have hear?” David’s snug voice rang out.

Dwayne froze, pulling back from Micheal’s neck. We wiped the dribble of blood that slipped from his lips. Paul was next to him in an instant, pulling the joy into a kiss and licking the remaining blood off his tongue. Marko groaned.

“No fair Paul! I wanted to try too!” He whined.

David rolled his eyes at their antics. He knew both boys had fed tonight. Why they were being so needy is beyond him. But it was amusing.

“So Micheal, how are you feeling?” David asked, sitting next to him.

Of course he was jealous Dwayne touched what was his. But he couldn’t blame the vampire, Micheal did smell delicious. Micheal tried to hide his blush. Laddie had ran over to the boys and asked to be held by Dwayne, and Star didn’t even seem remotely phased by the whole thing. David beckoned her forward, and she obliged like she always did. He instructed her to sit on Micheal’s lap.

David looked at the two of them like they were the prettiest thing in the world.

“Maybe Dwayne had the right idea. The two of you are so nervous, why don’t you practice on each other first?” He suggested.

He tried to sound sweet, but everyone else knew he had devious intentions. Of course he wanted to watch the two fledglings feed on each other, devour each other. Who wouldn’t? The two lovebirds Blushed furiously, but it didn’t seem like it was that bad of an idea.

“Practice?” Star asked Micheal.

“Practice.” He confirmed.

Delocated #7: “Sick of It!” | March 30, 2009 - 12:15AM | S01E07

The season finale that luckily didn’t turn out to be a series finale. In this episode, Jon is at the park to get custody of David, which is one of Jon’s favorite things to do. David is dropped off by Susan’s bodyguard/boyfriend. David is also wearing a motorcycle helmet. David’s insistence on wearing the helmet around is due to his bodyguard’s influence; he owns a motorcycle and apparently made an off-handed joke about leading your day-to-day life in a helmet that David took a little too much to heart. Jon orders the production to halt so he can father his child privately, and not on camera. When they refuse, Jon flips out. He eventually grabs one of the cameras and takes off with it. 

After shaking the show and his family, Jon films himself from the confines of a bush. Eventually he lures a fella named Mark played by Michael Shannon, an actor whose name I knew, but I can’t for the life of me ever recall seeing him in a motion picture. I’ve literally had multiple conversations with people who mentioned his name in some context and I just nodded as if I knew who they were talking about. So that’s who that guy is! He’s great in this! I think I like this guy!

So Mark, played by Michael Shannon from Delocated S01E07, decides to be friends with Jon after Jon beckons him to be in the bush with him. Eventually they hatch a scheme to exchange lives. Mark and Jon exchange clothes (NOTE: the DVD contains the entire take of them changing clothes, but it's sped-up, so you can see exactly how laborious it was to film), and then Mark exits the bush when Jon’s loved ones all come out looking for him. This is the moment the Mirminskis strike, shooting and killing Mark (dressed as Jon). 

The episode ends with Jon doing a Tom Sawyer to his own funeral, walking in with the video camera during Susan’s eulogy for him. He shoves the camera in people’s faces and taunts them. He retrieves his ski mask (his face is pixelated out in the actual show) and very nobily oversees a funeral for his once-friend. 

This is probably my favorite episode of the season. It relies on the simple premise that Jon is enamored with the idea of being bros with people. The concept of friendship is extremely important to him, because he probably finds himself in need of allies on a constant basis due to his terrible behavior. It’s like a numbers game for him. So he and Mark bond very quickly. Their scenes together are wonderful.

The bit at the end where Jon eulogizes his friend and decides to throw a proper funeral for him using the handful of things he knew about him to give it personal flare (pall bearers on roller blades and the presence of his candy apple red dodge durango) is so fun. The part where Jon rehashes all of his Mark facts to the people attending his own funeral is wonderful.

At the end of the episode, Jon drives away in Mark’s bitchin’ ride, and his bodyguard bolts for him, making it seem like Jon has now successfully fled the program. Will he be back for a second season?? Will it be expanded from 11 minutes to 22?? My friend! Time will tell my friend. 

MAIL BAG

It is mail bag my friend. I love you:

Why did you put a picture of Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick above your writeup of some dumb british show I never heard about?

(Joe Biden voice) C'mon man...

Using my napkin math I saw you took 5 tasty tuesdays last month. It was the holidays so sure it's okay to take one more tasty tuesday than usual. However, you have already taken 2 tasty tuesdays in january and we are all 6 days in. And I fear you may take one tonight.

Sometimes I think I need brain medicine (probably, actually) because I lack focus, and part of that includes me losing patience with the concept of burdening myself with a nightly mandate to post. But then I realize that by skipping days and simply not caring makes me one of the only people living on Earth who truly knows freedom. Stay safe, and happy January 6th, my friend.

[metaphysicpareidolic]

OPINION TIME because i need to know i'm not the only one who feels this way:

i'm gonna be perfectly honest and many of you might hate me for this but. i. did not like good omens season 2. so if you don't want to read, i'll just write my essay under the break dlsjfdh

OKAY.

i mean i understand why people like it, the two (mostly) male-presenting characters that everyone has been smashing together like barbie dolls for decades finally get a canon kiss, great. yeah, as a trans gay guy, i can't deny that i love seeing any kind of queer representation, especially from such a popular show, from such an influential author. but this? did not. feel good to watch. and it's not just because of the soul-destroying cliffhanger ending.

i lived and breathed good omens when the show first came out, it was one of the most intense hyperfixations of my life, i was completely obsessed with it and i recommended it to everyone i knew, both the show and the book. it's the entire reason i got tumblr in the first place and the first fandom i actually participated in. quite a good portion of my waking thoughts were consumed by the ineffable husbands and all the other characters. i was a young teenager at the time and this story shaped my view of the world for over a year, and i will always love it. but even then, i hoped to god (ha) that they wouldn't make a second season. but inevitably, they did.

i went into the first episode hoping i was wrong, and i finished it just feeling disappointed. i kept watching and got through the whole thing, hoping it would get better as the season went on, but it just got worse and worse. granted, i did enjoy the little historical throwbacks (i think the entire second season should have just been aziraphale and crowley through the centuries with michael and david improvising the whole thing like that one post) but the actual plot was bland, the characters had lost all their depth, and on top of that the budget was obviously cut by a lot so the rich visuals that were so captivating in the first season were gone, as well. that and issues with sound, which probably were more noticeable cause i was wearing headphones, but this is one of the most popular and profitable shows on a leading streaming service owned by one of the biggest fucking companies in the world. shouldn't they be putting money into it?

i'm not upset that beelzebub was recast. i'm upset that their entire character and personality was forgotten in favour of a romantic side plot, which exists, why? again?? to somehow emphasize a point already made by the other rushed romantic side plot?? that has barely anything to do with the actual story other than being accidentally dragged into it by aziraphale, whose entire character development from the first season has been entirely pushed aside because we need a third season, because we want more money! hehe they are kissing, gay people kissing ooh look, give us your money and attention so you can see them kiss consensually this time! i could continue but i will spare you the entirety of my spiel because i could write. PAGES. about how much this season hurt my soul not because Oh No They Broke Up but because i believed in this world and i believed in these characters and i don't like seeing them like this, wrung out and milked for cash and fanservice. everything that made the first season good is dampened by the knowledge that i now have to consider this fucking thing canon, that this is what the story turns into.

neil gaiman i love you but for the love of god get off of tumblr. he just wrote a fucking fanfiction of his and terry pratchett's work because he knew he would get money from it. and we are eating it up, because we love the story, we love the characters, and we love the author and we always want more. if you want more, draw fanart. write fanfiction. create your own version of a story. please, don't give your money to a company just because it's Officially Legit Canon when you could create a much better, more compelling, and more satisfying ending for yourself, for free. i lied earlier, i don't understand the appeal of this season. i don't understand why people like it. it feels fake. it feels wrong. it feels like an entirely different universe than the first season, and the book, and that wouldn't necessarily even be a bad thing if it was at least done with some level of concern for quality and consistency.

i know not everyone wants to be critical of their favourite show and would prefer to just enjoy it for what it is. i understand that, at least. i don't want to ruin anyone's fun. if you enjoyed this season, good. i'm glad you did and i love seeing all the fanart and fanfictions happening everywhere. i just really wanted to talk about this and maybe spark a little discussion if anyone's interested. anyways if you read all of this, thank you.

tl;dr: i hate capitalism, i hate streaming services

The Boys Who Wouldn’t Grow Up - Chapter 16

Summary: After everything David has been through, Max is finally ready to reach out and be the father his son needs most right now. Meanwhile, Marko is preparing for whatever he needs to do to save his brother.

WARNINGS FOR THIS CHAPTER: Mentions of mental health and seeking help and guidance for it.

It's nice being able to write Max as a good, caring father instead of what we see in the movie. I also like having Paul and Dwayne being competent hunters who also make very sweet friends. ❤️

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

How David was able to get home in his condition, he hadn’t the slightest idea. The entire ride on his bike was slow and clumsy, as he was running on almost no energy. It didn’t help that the sun was beating down so hot and bright on his body. Even the sunglasses he had used barely helped him. There were plenty of middle fingers and swears thrown his way by drivers unhappy with him on the road, but he didn’t care.    His body and his brain were in a battle with one another. The former was screaming at him to get back into bed as soon as possible and sleep the entire day away until he no longer felt like garbage. The latter was still spinning with confusion over what Maria had said to him before.  

Don’t trust Michael

All this time, he had followed Michael’s lead in everything they did together. What started off with an innocent hang-out at the boardwalk had turned into a near-suicide stunt over the ocean. Everything had just happened so fast, yet something had been drawing him closer and closer to Michael. He hadn’t questioned it before, thinking it was just an instant bond of friendship. Maybe even something a little more.   However, as Maria’s words played over and over again in his thoughts, David began to second guess some things that he had looked over before. Maria didn’t get the same treatment as the others, missing out on hot meals and better privacy in her living space. Michael seemed to really enjoy elements of danger, and Maria expressed worry over it getting worse. There was also something pushing David to leave the family he already had in favor of joining this one.    It just didn’t make any sense. Everything around him was influencing him to go to Michael. Even if he knew deep down he had a family that did love him, it was like he was overcome by a spell. One that hadn’t really taken place until that night, Michael saved him from the train and allowed him to break bread with his family.    The night before he got these powers.    David was so painfully close to connecting these clues together, but he was far too weak to comprehend anything going on in his brain. If he was going to get an answer to all of this, then he had to find Michael as soon as possible. He’d go back to the boardwalk tonight and try to find him and his brothers. For now, he’d need all the rest he could get.    He hadn’t taken even one step inside the house before getting hounded.

“DAVID!”   A pair of hands grabbed David, swiftly yanking him against a chest and into a hug. Even with his killer headache, David recognized who it was.    “Dad?”  

Max was a complete mess. He was still in the same outfit he had worn for his dinner date with Lucy the night before, his tie loosened and lopsided and his shirt collar undone and messy. His hair was disheveled and his eyes were bloodshot. By the look of it, he had been up all night long, and it was for very good reason.   “Oh my God, I’m so relieved you’re home, son!” he said, still gripping his oldest tight in a hug. He was afraid he’d lose David again if he let go. “I’ve been driving around Santa Carla all night looking for you! I only got home an hour ago to get coffee and call the local police in case they found you. I was scared to death that something had happened to you!”   David’s head was spinning. He wasn’t expecting this as the first thing he’d experience when he got home. After being so determined to get out in the first place, he hadn’t considered how worried his father would be when he eventually headed home. At the very least, he expected more scolding and another argument, not this. It was frustrating having his judgment so clouded lately. He didn’t know why he doubted his father so much.   “David, look at me. Did anyone hurt you? Did you take anything last night? Please be honest,” Max begged his son, checking his eyes for any sign that he was under the influence. Thankfully, the only thing he saw was tiredness.    “Dad….I’m fine…it was just…a long night out…” David mumbled. He barely had the energy to talk, let alone stand up for much longer. “I need some sleep….can I…go to my room…?”   Max wasn’t having that. He didn’t spend the entire night fearing the worst of his son just for David to brush it off and lock himself away in his room.    “Son, we really need to have a talk. I know I’ve been hard on you lately. You probably haven’t thought the best of me, and I get why. But this past night and this scare with you….it was a bit of a reality check for me,” Max said.    David raised an eyebrow at his father. He didn’t understand.   “When I was your age…mental health wasn’t exactly seen as something to fix. People were ignored or abused or just thrown in asylums so they’d be forgotten. If you were going through something, people would tell you to ‘take it like a man’ and just forget it. That’s all I knew about it. But now…I see it’s not at all like that”   Max let go of his son for a moment to walk over to the kitchen counter. He leaned over the sink, head held low as he thought back to all struggles he had experienced at David’s age. How there was no help for him then, and he feared for his son's well-being now. 

   “You’re a person whose feelings matter. You deserve love and help, not nagging and fighting. I won’t lie and say I completely understand everything, but I do want to put in the effort to learn about what you’re going through so I can help you. If I ever lost you to this…God help me, I don’t know what I’d do…”

  Inside David’s chest, his heart pulsed with a sharp ache. He’d never seen his father be so open and vulnerable before. He had no idea this was what he was doing to his family. He thought back to the past few days and how the little voice in his head told him his father didn’t care as his friends did, but this changed everything.    “Son, whatever you need from me, I’ll do it. We can find you a therapist to talk to while we’re in Santa Carla. We can go on a family trip if you need to get away for a bit. If you want, we can even just talk it out, just you and me. You can tell me whatever is on your mind, and I can just be an ear for you to listen if that’s what you want”   There were so many things David wanted to say. He wanted to apologize for saying he hated his father before. To agree to do something for the depression he struggled with so often. To explain that his problems were now on a supernatural level. But at that moment, he could only get out one thing.

  “Dad…I’m so…tir-”

  He couldn’t even finish his sentence before he hit the floor. His knees buckled before his legs pulled him down to the kitchen floor. His hands were shaking terribly as he went down. David’s entire body had given out, not wanting to fight sleep any longer.   If Max wasn’t on alert before, he certainly was now. He scrambled to catch David’s upper body before he fell all the way and busted his head on the hard floor.   “David! I’ve got you!” Max assured him. He called out to his other son as he helped David back on his feet. “MARKO! Your brother’s home! Come here!”    Sure enough, Marko came running around the corner and nearly busted down the door to get into the kitchen. He had been too worried about David to sleep last night, choosing instead to camp out downstairs in case his brother had decided at some point to return home. It didn’t help his nerves seeing his brother nearly unconscious in the kitchen.   “Jesus Christ, David, what happened?” he asked.    “I don’t think David has the energy to talk right now. Listen, I’m going to get him up to his room so he can rest. I want you to call that number I got from the local police and let them know David is home safe so they don’t have to keep an eye out anymore,” Max ordered the curly-haired boy.    Max swung one of David’s arms over his shoulder and reached down to scoop up his son to make carrying him a lot easier. It was a bit tricky at first, as he wasn’t a spry young man anymore and David wasn’t a little kid. But he wouldn’t be bothered by it if it meant getting his son to his room so he could rest after a hectic night. Perhaps their talk really could wait a little longer.   Marko nodded as he watched his father leave with his brother in tow. It was hard seeing David like this. After everything that happened last night, he knew the exhaustion his brother felt was a result of his newfound vampirism. It killed him seeing the guy act like this, but if he was going to fix this mess, then he needed to follow up on his plans with Paul and Dwayne today.    He only hoped they would still be okay with going the pacifist route with this problem. He wasn’t going to lose his only brother to this.    Marko was halfway through making the phone call like his father had requested when the back door of the kitchen creaked open. To his surprise, his grandmother came walking through the entrance, looking much more disheveled than when he saw her the night before. Her braid was undone, her dress was wrinkled and her lipstick smeared. When she caught his gaze, she simply stared back, frozen in place. 

  “Uh-”   “Let’s just keep this to ourselves, Marko,” she said, walking past her grandson in order to turn in and get some rest after her own night out. Marko simply shook his head, finding it best not to ask about things he wasn’t necessarily ready to hear.

It wasn’t easy leaving his father after everything that had happened the night before. When Marko was getting ready to leave to see his friends, his father had been making calls to local doctor’s offices for available therapists and counselors for David to talk to. While it was certainly nice seeing David get the help he needed, it made Marko even more worried about the bigger problem they were dealing with.   Their father could call every doctor in the state of California, but unless one of them knew a cure for vampirism, it was up to Marko to turn his brother back to normal.    He all but sprinted the entire way to Wolfsbane Books, hoping Dwayne and Paul would let him in before opening. His face was flushed and sweaty by the time he got to the front of the store. Sure enough, with some thorough banging on the glass window, he was able to get their attention.    “Holy shit, are we glad to see you in one piece!” Paul greeted Marko after getting the front door unlocked.    “We were really worried you were gonna be turned into a juice box. Are you feeling okay?” Dwayne asked once the Johnson boy was safe inside the store. He grabbed a nearby step ladder for Marko to sit down on so he could rest while giving them the details.   “Well, I’m severely sleep deprived and my nerves are completely shot, but at least I can say my circulatory system is still functioning, so I got that going for me,”  Marko half-joked, feeling relieved to be able to sit down.    It was good to have friends that cared so much about his well-being. It was even better that said friends weren’t crazy, but rather incredibly smart about something as dangerous as vampires. Marko had faith in them being able to help.   “If your brother didn’t attack anyone, then that means he’s a half-vampire. They’re weaker and still age like humans, but can’t be destroyed by the sun. It takes the kill and drinking of a human to complete the transformation permanently,” Dwayne explained. 

  While he tried to catch his breath, Dwayne and Paul started collecting piles of books they had rounded up the night before. They stacked them up one by one on the table nearest to Marko. He was able to catch sight of some of the numerous titles: Vampires & World Cultures, Defense Against Monsters, Secrets of the Undead

  “Are all these books about vampires?” Marko asked. Even though he was an avid reader, this was quite an intimidating collection..   “You bet your ass they are!” Paul said, grabbing a random book from one of the piles and tossing it to Dwayne. “If we’re gonna teach you how to defend yourself, you’re gonna have to know everything about your enemy”   The brunet randomly flipped through the book he had in hand before finding the right page. He turned it around to face Marko, pointing at the right paragraph for him to follow along with.   “The best way we can help you fix this problem with your brother is by finding the head vampire that turned him and killing them. Since he’s only half, he can still be cured once the leader has been defeated”   Everything was so overwhelming. To think that yesterday afternoon he thought they were being silly about all of this. Now his entire world was upside down, and his own brother was at risk of becoming a creature of the night permanently. Marko only hoped David would stay strong enough to fight the urge to kill before they could take down the monster that did this to him in the first place.   “We’re gonna keep the shop closed for today so that we can get you all caught up,” Paul said, grabbing another book from the pile. “Once you got the brains, we’ll work on the brawn”   Marko raised an eyebrow, not entirely certain what that involved. Thankfully, Dwayne picked up on that and offered a translation on his brother’s behalf.   “He means we’ll teach you how to fight. Basic combat and self-defense, along with using weapons that can kill or injure a vampire. You gotta know how to use your weapons properly. If you’re clumsy and inexperienced, it’ll get you killed in a fight with a blood-sucker”  

“God, this is a lot of stuff to go over,” Marko said, feeling a little overwhelmed. “I don’t even know any other vampires out there or which ones have interacted with David. I…fuck, I just want my brother back…”

  The Murray brothers could clearly see their new friend was definitely in over his head about all this. They had their own rather troublesome history with vampires, and it brought back some bothersome memories of their own seeing Marko worry about helping his brother out. Paul wrapped an arm around Marko’s shoulder while Dwayne put a hand on his arm, giving it a reassuring squeeze.   “Don’t you worry, Marko. We’re gonna fix this as soon as possible”   Marko nodded, grabbing a random book from the stack on the table. Better get started right away.

David was safe upstairs in his bed, and knowing that allowed Max to finally get some rest. He hadn’t even bothered to change into some pajamas, instead just flopping down on his bed in his date outfit. He’d get a little sleep in while David recovered, and if he needed anything, Max would be ready to help.   Unfortunately, his nap was cut short by his bedside rotary phone ringing just inches from his face. Max groaned but still reached out to pick up the phone, hoping to stop the sound before it potentially woke up David. 

  “H-Hello..?” he groaned into the receiver.   “Hi! Is Max Johnson available?” a feminine voice greeted him on the other end. Max perked up a little, finding the voice to be familiar.    “Speaking“   “This is Star, Lucy’s employee. Last night she asked me to give you a message”

  Now Max was fully awake, sitting up straight to better listen to Star’s message. After everything that happened, he had completely forgotten to call Lucy and update her on the situation with David. Despite how understanding she was when he ran out, he still felt guilty for doing so and making her worried.    “Oh yes! I was meaning to get back to her”   “She wanted to see if you wanted to try for dinner again this evening. Perhaps something smaller,” Star explained.   There was absolutely no way Max was leaving his house after everything that happened with David. He couldn’t risk another scare like that and not be home and ready to help.    On the other hand, he did want to make things up to Lucy. After all, she was just as concerned about David’s well being. Not to mention she had shown some interest in being a good influence on them as well. Maybe if he could make things work for both his sons and the woman he had budding feelings for, then everyone could be happy.   “I think that would be a wonderful idea,” Max said. “Tell her she can come over to my house tonight. I can make something for us! She can even bring her dog if she wants!”   Star agreed on Lucy’s behalf, collecting the information about Max’s address and the time for her boss to be there. When all was said and done, Max thanked her for reaching out to him and hung up the phone. He’d rest for now and make something special when it got closer to dinnertime. 

  This could be a really good thing. For the sake of his family, it had to be.

iamjusthereforthecomments replied to your post "Can't stop noticing how red Michael's ears are...”

David's ears are equally red. I google it. It really is a sign of arousal, that or embarrassments, I choose arousal!

yourgothicredrose reblogged your post "Can't stop noticing how red Michael's ears are...”

Glad I'm not the only one that noticed the ears.

So much going on in this scene with Michael and David's body language, between the red ears and the dilated pupils...

There's been a lot of talk about acting choices and doing something for the character vs. the actor's own personal desire. But what I think keeps getting overlooked is that Michael himself said that everything from the last four years--everything that's happened with him and David since the first season, including enduring a global pandemic and being in Staged--plays into what we see on screen. It would seem beyond belief, then, that Michael could stand across from someone who generates as much emotion in him as David does and not feel as though he's reacting to David as much as Crowley.

And if that is the case--if real life is bleeding into the characters as much as Michael is saying it is--then it would make all the sense in the world for their bodies to react to each other. For those involuntary physical responses to be something that happens when Michael and David are around each other, that they bring out of each other, and not just when they are acting. I am just glad other people are seeing it, too...

The Entertainment Industry Task Force

The building on Fuji Way in Marina del Rey, California, is as nondescript as they come — just another glass and concrete office tower like so many others hunkered in business parks across Los Angeles. But 20 years ago, just a few weeks after the 9/11 tragedy, a group of elite Hollywood figures and a handful of top U.S. Army brass met for a clandestine summit straight out of a Michael Crichton novel.

A lot of what transpired that night is still top secret, but this much we do know: One evening in October 2001, just weeks after al-Qaeda terrorists took down the Twin Towers in Manhattan and maimed the Pentagon, a group of about 30 of Hollywood’s top creatives — A-listers like Oliver Stone, “Law & Order” producer Dick Wolf, “Seven” director David Fincher, “NYPD Blue’s” David Milch and the late John Singleton, to name just a few — were quietly invited to mingle with high-level members of the U.S. military.

The group was officially, though secretly, named the Entertainment Industry Task Force and its mission, which everyone enthusiastically accepted, was to help America prevent another 9/11 by brainstorming terrorist scenarios so out-of-the-box crazy they could only happen in the movies. Unless, that is, al-Qaeda thought of them first. After all, until 2001 nobody had ever imagined — or prepared for the idea — that hijacked planes could be used as deadly missiles against landmark buildings like the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

“The 9/11 attacks had just happened,” A. Michael Andrews II, the now-retired major general who came up with the idea for the meeting, told the The Wrap in an exclusive interview offering details about the group and its membership that have not previously been disclosed. “The Pentagon was in gear and rolling. We had a defense-science board and an Army-science board looking at all the standard actors. But nobody knew what to expect. So, I thought it would be worthwhile to look outside our usual way of thinking about terrorism. I asked if we could get some entertainment industry volunteers together and see if they could dream up plot lines that might expose a weakness in our real-life anti-terrorism network capabilities. It was an opportunity for us to learn and for Hollywood to help.”

To some degree, Hollywood had already been helping. The Institute for Creative Technology, launched in 1999 by the Army Research Lab in affiliation with USC, had been drawing on Hollywood talent for a couple of years as a super-high-tech war-modeling and virtual-reality training facility. Screenwriter John Milius, most famous for penning “Apocalypse Now” and the “Dirty Harry” movies, was said to be an early consultant.

So after 9/11, when the Army decided to corral a bunch of movie and TV execs for a terrorism bull session, it was only natural that they’d hold the confab at the ICT’s marina command center, which turned out to be much cooler-looking on the inside than its drab exterior would suggest. “It had this one door that seemed like it was out of SPECTRE headquarters,” James Korris, a former Universal TV producer who served as the ICT’s creative director during the early 2000s, told The Wrap, referring to James Bond’s nemesis. “It slid open electrically and we even added a sound effect, so it sounded like the doors on the Enterprise.”

The first meeting of the Entertainment Industry Task Force — the acronym EITK somehow never caught on — began at around 7 p.m. and didn’t break up until sometime before midnight. Attendees had so many horrifyingly destructive and diabolical ideas, they decided to meet again a few weeks later for a second session. All signed NDA’s swearing them to secrecy and while there were whispers in Hollywood newsrooms about some sort of hush-hush summit, nobody blabbed a word. In fact, to this day, those who attended have kept their lips sealed; every one of the task force creatives contacted by The Wrap was unavailable to share their memories of the event. One attendee confirmed those who attended, but declined to talk further.

But for the first time, Korris shared with TheWrap the full list of attendees. Some choices were logical, directors and producers behind crime dramas like “Hill Street Blues” and war epics like “Platoon.” Others seemed almost random, like Randal Kleiser, the director of…. “Grease” and “The Blue Lagoon.” Here’s the full roster, complete with noteworthy pre-2001 credits:

David Ayer, screenwriter (“Training Day”) Danny Bilson, Screenwriter (“Viper,” “The Sentinel”) Martha Coolidge, Director Christopher Crowe, Screenwriter (“The Last of the Mohicans”) Steven de Souza, Screenwriter (“Diehard”) David Fincher, Director (“Se7en,” “The Game”) Naomi Foner, Screenwriter (“Losing Isaiah”) Spike Jonze, Director (“Being John Malkovich”) Jerome Gary, Producer (“Pumping Iron,” “Stripper”) Walon Green, Screenwriter (“The Wild Bunch”) Randal Kleiser, Director (“Grease”) Mary Lambert, Director (“Pet Sematary”) Niki Marvin, Producer (“Shawshank Redemption”) David Milch, Executive Producer (“Hill Street Blues”) Jonathan Sanger, Producer (“Elephant Man”) Robert Shaye, Executive, Producer, Director (New Line Cinema) John SIngleton, Director (“Boyz N the Hood”) Oliver Stone, Writer-Director (“Platoon,” “JFK”) Robert Ward, writer (“Hill Street Blues”) Dick Wolf, Producer (“Law and Order”) Joseph Zito, Director (“Friday the 13th”)

According to Korris, who attended both sessions, a large portion of the first meeting was devoted to dissecting and analyzing the mindset of a terrorist. “They spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out what Osama bin Laden was all about,” he says. “What his personality was like, what was driving him. At the time, Bin Laden was a blank slate that we were trying to fill in. So, it was basically character development.” But the group also did a lot of work on story arcs, pitching various potential terrorist plot lines. “I have a whole book full of them but I don’t want to say too much about the specifics,” Korris said. “I don’t want to give anyone ideas. But some of them were common sense and some of them were a little more obscure. It was a lot like being in a writers’ room. They just came up with ideas and I wrote them down and then I made a report.”

That report — which to this day remains unavailable to the public — was ultimately delivered to the highest levels of the George W. Bush administration, with Korris and Andrews flying to Washington, DC for a briefing with Wayne Downing, then the deputy national security adviser in charge of combating terrorism (who reported directly to then-National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice and then-Assistant to the President for Homeland Security Tom Ridge). “Downing was obviously someone who didn’t suffer fools gladly, but he was very gracious and very polite,” Korris said. “I gave him the report but I have no idea what he ended up doing with it.”

Andrews has a similar recollection of the meeting. “I don’t think Downing asked a single question,” he says.

Of course, it’s possible that the report saved lives. Who knows what dastardly plots it might have predicted and helped to foil? Thanks to Oliver Stone and Dick Wolf and the others who devoted brain cells to the anti-terrorism cause, America is possibly a little bit more secure today than when they gathered in the marina. The ICT, which is still around, although no longer headquartered on Fuji Way, is certainly in better shape; its budget, funded primarily by the U.S. Army Research Lab, has ballooned from an initial $45 million in 1999 to close to $300 million today, according to an individual with knowledge of the operation.

And for Hollywood, there was an extra bonus: Some of the ideas cooked up by the Entertainment Industry Task Force came in handy once the attendees got back to their studio lots. “Oh, I think several of them ended up in films,” says Korris. “It wouldn’t shock me if some of the people in the meeting thought, ‘Hey, that’s a good idea.’”

Poly!Lost Boys + Vampire!Michael x Reader

Inspired by @santa-carla-diet art and @iloveslasher idea

It was nice evening. Star was chilling on the couch, being the first to wake up this evening. She yawned, flipping through the pages of magazine, when she started smelling something she couldn't really identify. She furrowed her brows, but still couldn't put a finger on it. Finally the girl decided that if there was something serious, the boys would react to it, so she calmed down.

- Evening, - she turned her head to see Y/N, sleepily walking from her nest. Star smiled a little, knowing that it probably took her at least couple of minutes to get out from entangled hands and legs.

- Evening, - she answered, almost turning her attention to the magazine again, when noticed something on... Y/N's neck and shoulders. She looked back at her and squinted her eyes. - What is that?

- What is what? - she answered back, turning to face Star, half-way to the kitchen. Halfling gasped, noticing...

- Are these bites?! - Star sat on the couch, her relaxation going away, as her worry jumped up high. Y/N looked at her shoulder and smirked after a second of thoughts.

- Oh yes, these are bites, -she said still sleepily and almost satisfied.

- Are you okay? - she could definitely see at least five bite marks, and that is only on neck, wrist and shoulders, where t-shirt went a little down. What was under her clothes - she didn't even know. And to be honest, was a little scared for her health.

- Totally. You should see others, - she smirked, glancing to her nest. Star looked there too, noticing Dwayne, who exited the nest. He was missing his usual jacket, his chest covered with kisses, smeared lipstick and hickeys.

- You've got to be joking me... - she whispered, blushing from the view. Dwayne smiled awkwardly, coming to Y/N and kissing her cheek.

- Evening, - he smiled, but was replaced by more energetic Marko, who ran straight from the next to Y/N.

- Hi, baby, - Star could see traces of kisses on his stomach lower than his crop top. She sighed, averting her gaze. Alright, maybe bite marks weren't too much. Even though kisses were harmless unlike bites, somehow Y/N managed to kiss them both from head to toe. And there were three more...

- Why did you go... - she heard whining of Paul. He showed up, following looks of others, covered in kisses and hickeys and lipstick (it was bright, what did she use for makeup?), tugging his coat on. He smiled at Star, playfully, walking over to her and sitting on the couch near girl, smirking. - How're you doing?

- Paul, stop, - she giggled, pushing him away. She knew he wasn't serious, but this evening was already too strange, with boys covered in marks, and Y/N in bites. She wasn't in the mood for flirt with him.

- He's just in the mood, - Michael answered for him. He was dressed fully, missing only jacket, unlike others, but Star could see hickeys on his neck. New coming vampire shrugged, noticing her stare and blushed. He was still new to all of this, so of course he was a little shy to show up, looking like a painting of red lips.

- Paul always is, and we are too, - David added. He was the most calm, though the mark was on his cheek and neck. Star couldn't understand, how strong she must have kissed if vampires with their fast regeneration still had these.

- I don't want to know this and I want to sleep peacefully at day, thank you, - Star shook her head, trying to open the magazine again, but Paul snatched it away, flipping through the pages himself, leaving her with no distraction.

- You think she noticed this? - Marko said "in a whisper" to Y/N, as she giggled and pushed him away playfully.

- No way! - she pretended to be shocked, as Star rolled her eyes. Their tease was too much, she sometimes asked herself if she should live with six of them.

- Yeah, I guess she noticed, - Marko nodded. Y/N smiled, strangely wavering in their steps and stumbling, almost falling. Dwayne caught them, alerted by this.

- Hey, princess, are you alright? What's wrong?

- Five vampires drank blood from them, not controlling their hunger in their emotions and busy with... other business. You really think that they are alright? - the boys looked at Str dumbfounded. She sighed, still blushing and snatching the magazine from Paul once again. - I understand that you don't know human anatomy much, you kill people more often than help them, but Michael, you, seriously? You just ended school, with biology in your last course.

- I... I didn't think, - he stumbled in his words, coming to Y/N and supporting her. She tried to wave him away, but wasn't successful in it.

- I can see, - Star sighed at the sight of this, while the girl sent the pout her way.

- I'm fine, guys, - Y/N stated, but she was pale, and Michael took her in his arms, not caring for the protests.

- To the nest, - David nodded to the pathway. Dwayne moved to kitchen, probably to grab some food for their mate. On their way back to the nest, Y/N giggled in Michael's arms.

- I still won, - she exclaimed. - I outdone you five in marking!

[noridoorman]

Ooo i had a idea and just saw that ur in need for writing ideas!."you get into a trial at Haddonfield with Michael myers and the whole trial he just stalks you. You bump into David and he's mad about you bumping into him so he just pushes you wich ends up getting him instantly killed against the entity's will and thats when you realize you have your own little yandare myers on you"(if your comfy with writing yandare

I really love this request for some reasons. And now, I've finally written something for a different killer cause right now, Ionly had stuff for Frank Morrison. Anyways, enjoy!

The streetlight of Haddonfield never managed to provide you with enough lights to make you feel comfortable in the small neighborhood. Laurie had told you all about it, which homes belonged to whom and which are the safest to hide in against killers. If it weren't for the bloodthirsty murderers roaming around, you would've taken a well-deserved rest in one of the houses. After all, some have mattresses in them that look relatively comfortable.

Speaking of sleep, you haven't been able to catch any at the campfire. Sure, resting is not necessary for the Entities realms since its trails already fills you with a rush of adrenalin. Nobody considered sleeping to help with their drowsiness but rather to preserve every bit of hope and dreams everyone has. And sleeping before the trails helps you enter it with an optimistic mindset. Other survivors at the camp protested that it might be more detrimental to your survival than actually helpful. A positive attitude might drive others to risk their lives for each other and act more altruistic, which could cause everyone's demise. But "the nerds" (how you like to call them) in the camp have proven that it helps you be more calculated and aware of the dangers lurking in the shadows.

With that said, you didn't notice the giant Shape stalking your form AT ALL. Despite Michael Myers being in your line of sight with his knife ready to cut your guts out, it took you several embarrassing minutes to see him in the distance. Your eyes meet his hollow ones for a second until you back away from the generator. You stood up, moving your body backward, which caused you to trip and rip at a cable resulting in the generator exploding.

"What the-?!" David lets go of the generator and shoots you a judging glare. When he noticed that your frightened expression didn't acknowledge his presence at all, he turned around to find whatever had terrified you. You grab his wrist and stand up, attempting to pull you two behind the large fences.

"David, we have to go!" He let himself get pulled by you for a few steps before ripping his wrist away from you.

"I know we 'ave to go 'cause you blew up that gen'!" He points behind him where you two had previously worked, oblivious to the killer still stalking you two. Its black and sinister eyes glared daggers your way, but surprisingly, its eyes grew in anger the longer David talked. And when David took a threatening step forward, you couldn't help but notice the Shape approaching ever so slowly, raising all the hairs on your body. "Now the killer's gonna know where we are!"

"I-I think he already knows..." You point meekly behind you, making David finally turn around. He cursed something British under his breath that you couldn't understand. David ran towards one of the houses, and you followed close behind. When you two made it to the entrance, he pushed against your chest, not permitting you to go in.

"You were the one that attracted the fucking killer's attention. Go outside and do your job at distracting him! Or you'll get us both killed." You turned behind you and couldn't see Michael anywhere, yet you knew his eyes watched this whole thing unfold. You wanted to protest against David's words until you heard the creak of one of the red lockers. You sighed and tried to come up with a way to escape the situation before the touch of a cold hand broke you out of your thoughts.

This is it. That's your end, getting left behind by your teammate and dropped in the hands of the bloodthirsty killer. Didn't Laurie mention that Michael Myers is the embodiment of evil, embracing the violence and pain because he's the one causing it?

What a joy.

You would've laughed at this situation comical feel if you weren't staring death in the eyes. But death had other plans. Michael removes his hand from your shoulders and walks past you in the building. Your curious eyes follow his movement intently. Your legs moved almost on their own as you meekly followed behind the much taller killer like a child that expects candy. He opens one locker and slams it shut. The impact made you jump in your own skin. Michael didn't pay mind to your reaction and ripped the next locker open, slamming it shut also.

"Uhm..." Your voice lost all the strength it had collected when he turned to you, his hollow eyes staring down you once again. "I think he's in that one" Yet again, you meekly point to the locker next to the window. His gaze lingered a second longer on you before basically running toward the locker and revealing the coward hiding in it. Michael didn't hesitate to plunge his knife deep into his chest repeatedly, holding David up by the neck to show off his strength. Before David took his last breath, Michael threw the corpse in front of you, making you take a giant gulp. You backed away, but Michael drew ever so close. The ground rumbled and a horn emitted from the sky, indicating that the endgame collapse had triggered prematurely. That only happens when very important rules have been broken resulting in either side getting punished.

"Oh, uh..." You backed against the wall, ready for him to gut you until he dropped his hand awkwardly on your head. His head tilted to the side as he attempted to draw circles with hands, attempting to comfort you. "Aw..."

The horn let out another loud rumble, telling everyone to leave the trial grounds immediately. Michael looked to the ceiling, and you swore you heard him sigh beneath his mask.

"I, uh..." His attention was focused on you again. "Thank you?" Michael nodded and picked you up from the ground, emitting a yelp from you. And yet again, you could swear you heard a chuckle from him. His hands held you firmly in place as he carried you bridal-style to what you assume are the gates. Luckily, no one stood there, so you could save the awkward explanation of why the embodiment of evil is sparing you.

"I, uh... This was something. Hope I'll see you around, I guess" With an awkward wave, you make your way out of the trail carrying a warm but uncertain smile. And without you knowing, it may have just melted the cold and dead heart of the killer that spared your life.

Wardlow x f/Reader

Just like all my other stories, this has not been proofread, but please enjoy.

Warnings: Some swearing.

AU as Sammy is an ass.

Story idea & request by @lghockey

Main Masterlist ♡ AEW Masterlist ♡ Wardlow Masterlist ♡ Everybody's Free Masterlist

Summary: F/Reader is friends with Sammy & everyone in the Inner Circle. She is also a member of his vlog squad. They found out she has a secret boyfriend & they try to figure out who it is.

Daniel - Cash Wheeler ☆ David - Dax Harwood ☆ Ronnie - Shawn Spears ☆ Miguel- Ortiz ☆ Mike - Santana

YN's POV:

Once I put the items I got from the Doctor in my luggage, I decided to go to the mall. I knew I had to tell Michael, and I will but I just had to find a way to tell him.

Do I tell him tonight before one of his biggest matches of his career or do I wait until after?

If I tell him tonight, he will only be focusing on me or tell me I can't be in his corner. He may tell me I can't go all together.

I went to St Johns Town Center and went to Kilwins to get my favourite ice cream, Dulce De Leche.

I settled on a waffle cone and ate it in the store, making up my mind on what I will be doing.

I finished my cone and did some shopping. I got Michael some new workout shoes and myself a pair as well.

I made it back to our place just as he walked through the door.

"How's my Mom?" He asked me after a kiss hello.

"She is good. The house is coming along nicely. I also went shopping." I handed him his new shoes.

His eyes lit up at them. I knew he would like them. "Thank you baby. Did you get anything for yourself?" I showed him the pair I got.

"The guys asked us out for dinner if you want to go."

"Where are we going?"

"Sweet Mamas." My mouth started to water at the thought of the delicious food. This is probably one of my favourite places to eat here in Jacksonville.

"What made you guys decide on there? Before a match you like to eat somewhere healthy." I asked him as he sat on the bed to try on his new shoes.

He pulled me into his arms and I wrapped my arms around his neck. "I know how much you love it there and tomorrow is also a big day for you. I can always find something to eat there but tonight is your night my love."

I almost cried at that but I held back the tears. My eyes did water though when I kissed him.

Michael pulled back slightly, concerned. "I'm fine Michael. I'm fine." I told him. Great, already emotional with this pregnancy.

♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡◇♡

The guys were already there by the time we got to the small restaurant. Daniel told us that they practically ordered everything on the menu and may be ordering more.

I did order myself some smothered pork chops with a large side of delicious mac and cheese.

The food finally came and our small group ate everything. The guys talked about their upcoming matches and I happily ate my meal.

I was sitting in between Max and Michael and I was enjoying the conversations that were being held around me.

But Max leaned down to whisper in my ear. "I got a charge on my credit card today from the bridal shop." He didn't sound angry, just confused.

I turned my head so I could say, "I will explain later." He didn't push it any further and I am thankful.

I ate the rest of my meal, trying to decide if I should tell him or not. I mean, I should tell Michael first and I didn't even think that the bridal shop would charge his card so soon.

Our meals were finished and I could of cried at the fact that it was all gone. I wiped away the few tears that actually fell and hoped that no one saw.

But I didn't notice that Max was watching me like a hawk.

The bill came and Daniel and David went to pay for it. Once we figure out the cost of each person, we will send them our share of the bill.

Michael got up and went to the bathroom and now it is just Max and I.

"Want to tell me what is going on YN?"

"I just wanted to make the dress slightly longer." I said the first stupid lie that came to mind.

Max stared at me and he knew I was lying. "That isn't it. No, that isn't it at all." Then it was like a light went off in his head.

"You're pregnant." He hissed.

"Shut up. I just found out today. I haven't even told Michael so keep your mouth shut. How the hell did you figure it out?"

"You got emotional when your food was done. When we were shopping the other day you had to run to the bathroom to puke and I asked the lady on the phone why there was an extra charge and she told me that somethings will have to be altered on the dress."

I saw the other three head back over. "Please don't say anything." Max quickly said okay and we stood up to join the guys as they approached the table.

Michael wrapped his arm around my waist as we left the restaurant.

Michael was up and ready to go long before I was. I had no idea where he was until I heard him speaking in the next room.

I cracked open the dood a bit and saw that he was doing a video interview with Chris Van Vliet.

I always enjoyed watching Michael do interviews. His whole gimmick right now is to be the tough guy who stands next to Max and never really speak.

During interviews he gets to shine and show the world he is more than just 'Wardlow.'

"So tell me Mike, how is the wedding planning coming along?" Chris asked him.

"It is coming along great. Everything has been picked out and paid for. Our friends and family will be there and the ones who live out of town have their rooms all ready to go."

"Are you going to tell us where it is?" Chris pried. Whenever he is doing an interview now or people stop to talk to him and I, they ask us.

"That is a secret and people will find out after the wedding." Michael said with a smile.

"Why all the secrets if I may ask?"

"YN and I just want our day for us. We don't want to worry about fans, paparazzi or uninvited guests."

"Like Sammy Guevara?" Michael tensed up slightly at that question.

"It is hard for us to keep it a secret from him as many of my co-workers will be there but he has not been invited and he will not allowed in. If you are not on the guest list, then you can not come in."

Chris went in another direction for the rest of the interview and I went and got ready for the day.

I ordered us some food and Michael ate between different interviews. I find it silly that so many were planned for today before his big match but it kept his mind clear and he wasn't going crazy at the gym.

After his last interview, we were finally able to leave and head to Daily's Place.

Some tapings were done for the other shows but now people who were there for the live show were getting ready.

I was sitting in the makeup chair talking with my makeup artist Dani when Tay walked in. I knew she was standing in Sammy's corner tonight.

Tay and I have no issues with one another so we were civil.

"YN?" She said my name softly.

"Yeah Tay?"

"I'll do my best to keep Sammy away from you." I didn't say anything. At this point, maybe I made the wrong decision by coming here tonight.

"Just tell him that if he lays a hand on me, I won't be able to hold back my fiancé. Michael will hurt him."

I heard her take a deep breath. "I know. I told him that. I told him that this match is only between him and Mike."

Dani told me I was done and I thanked her over and over again for the beautiful job she did.

Tay went to get in the chair I just left but I placed my hand on her arm.

"Be careful out there Tay. Don't get involved unless you feel it is absolutely necessary." She gave me a tight smile and nodded her head in understanding.

"This isn't just about the safety of myself and Michael anymore." I told her. She looked confused but I placed my hand on my stomach and her eyes got real wide once she realised what I was saying.

Michael and I had to do an interview with Tony Schiavone. We had no idea if anyone was going to interrupt, but no one was supposed too.

But it was interrupted by two members of The Inner Circle, Miguel and Mike.

Michael stood infront of me, blocking me from the men. These two men who I was friends with and hopefully still am.

Tony stepped to the side but wasn't far away. "Ortiz and I are not here to cause any issues. We stand behind you Wardlow and YN."

I stepped around Michael and looked into the eyes of these two men. "Did Sammy put you up to this?" I asked.

"No. Santana and I do not agree with how he has been treating you YN. We stand with you two for tonight."

I wanted to cry but I didn't. Miguel stuck out his hand for us to shake and we did. For now there is a truce between the four of us.

It is now time for the main event. Michael and I stood back as Sammy and Tay did their entrance together. The fans cheered and booed for Sammy.

We got ready to walk out, waiting for "This Is War" to start playing.

Once his music started to play, Michael grabbed my hand in his and gave it a quick squeeze.

I smiled up at him and the two of us did our entrance. The fans were cheering for us. The signs were funny and supportive of the two of us.

Before getting into the ring, Michael gave me a kiss and winked at me. I watched with so much pride as he got into the ring and stared Sammy down.

But before the bell even rang, Sammy was attacking Michael. Bryce had to force his way in between them to get them apart.

The bell finally rang and the match began. I was screaming and cheering for Michael. Tay was doing the same for Sammy, but we stayed on our sides.

But I watched in horror as Sammy had Michael pinned against the ropes and was actually hitting him over and over again, blood dripping down the side of Michael's head.

I had to stay calm as getting too stressed isn't good for anyone but how could I not be when I am seeing the man I love with blood dripping down his face.

But Michael got a few good shots in as well. Sammy was practically staggering around, trying to get his barrings straight.

But then after one hard hit, Michael went down. He was moving and Bryce made sure he was okay, but during that time, Sammy focused on me and came running at me.

It was like he literally flew out the ring and stood infront of me. I tried to stop my hands from going to my stomach but it was like they had a mind of their own.

But Sammy was so out of it, he didn't realise what I did. Tay ran over to where we were and coaxed Sammy to get into the ring.

But Michael saw it all. He saw me place my hands on my stomach. He saw Tay come running to defend me with a panicked look on her face.

Once Sammy was in the ring, Michael's fist connected with his jaw and Sammy was out. He wasn't moving but he was breathing and the Medical team rushed in to check him over.

They checked Michael over as well and he was fine, but I could tell by the look on his face he was not happy with me.
