#jack farris

[oflightningandstars]

Feeling something about how when I first read Beanstalk Jack was older than me, 20 seemed so old (and even then I was still 16 or so when I read it) and he still seems so much older than me but he's not and aughhh (thinking about all the things between him leaving the Forest and arriving at the Academy)

[ID: Album art is a rocky beach with a single figure in the foreground, filtered to look like a painting.]

now that I finally finished the rest of the album, I can share the song I wrote like a year ago based on our boy Jack Farris!

(lyrics:)

I cannot tell you where the story starts For roots have always overlapped in every forest I have known Entwined until there’s no way to discern from where they’ve come or where they’ll go

But I have a beginning I won’t forget the feeling Of wooded floors below me And the happiest I’ve ever been

Though when I wasn’t looking My head had hit the ceiling That I couldn’t reach on tiptoe Several years or days ago

So I’ll pack up all the love I’ve been given along with my traveling gear And I’ll sling it ‘round my shoulders as I journey on from here But if I’m feeling lost or if I manage to get hurt I’ll turn my wandering feet around and promise to return

Now you know well as I do what comes next For avalanches tumble down on every mountain I have known As pebbles topple boulders topple all the stolid ridges capped with snow

It feels like a falling An inch away from dreaming I’d gotten used to dangerous But thought that we’d scrape by with luck

Instead, I’ll bear the aching When early in the morning I could’ve sworn I heard your call But when I turned, you’d carried on

So I’ll pack up all the love I’ve been given along with my traveling gear And I’ll hide it in my closet to keep the dust clear And when I’ve found a better way to love like you deserve I’ll turn my wandering feet around and promise to return

The story isn’t drawing to a close For roads are redirected within every town that I have known As steady hands rebuild the battered buildings and the weathered cobblestone

Cause I don’t believe in endings Just a bit of growing My name in ink upon the door And people I’ve been looking for

I blinked between the bleeding And suddenly I’m reeling At all the warmth around me And the happiest I’ll ever be

So I’ll pack up all the love I’ve been given along with my traveling gear And I’ll set it in the corner so I’ll always have it near And if you ever tell me that you want to see the world I’ll turn my wandering feet around and promise to return

“You were trained in a classroom, Rupe.” Jack eyed the scraggly line of bushes, near the top of the ridge, and wondered how many armed men you could hide in them.

“I was trained in Rivertown’s back alleys,” said Rupert. “And then I got a degree in a classroom, too. I have a hard time imagining you think either of those things are useless.”

“I will teach our son to hate you, Jack. He will be my brother and father both. Does that make you feel good, knowing you’ve sired such venom?” // Starman (1994) #29

“You’re gonna grow up to be just like your uncle and your grandaddy, yes you are. Mommy’s gonna teach you.” // “People will say... there’s the son of Jack Knight-Starman. Whoa, he’s one evil villain. Yes, they will. They’ll talk about how Jack Knight and the female Mist had a son and how he grew up to kill his father and take his mother’s name.” // Starman (1994) #38

“My mother reasoned it was because Jack’s son was both parts his father’s family and his mother’s. Somewhere dormant within the Knight line from Jack’s son onward that latent strain of evil lurked... appearing only once in a while.” // Starman (1994) #1,000,000

“Kyle Knight, The Mist. Knight’s the newest addition to the team, but he clearly has a tie to his biological mother’s family. We hope it’s simply physical.” // Justice Society of America (2022) #1

“Why are these children carrying on these horrific legacies in the first place? Does the world need to remember The Mist?” // Justice Society of America (2022) #1

Moments in Starman (1994) that now double as foreshadowing for the current Justice Society of America run.

We are discussing a lot of groups within the American alternative rock scene of the 80's, but our talks would be quite incomplete without...Mr. Mister?! I probably shocked you, though you must understand that I must rephrase what are we discussing here.  This is not an alternative rock scene despite the presence of the markers of the latter, this should be called – actually, this is the moniker used here, a New Wave movement. Sure, Mr. Mister do not share the cool of the previous musicians in my posts about the topic, yet they do belong here. We should've seen them as the development of the 70's soft rock into the 80's soundscapes, so they do fit in a way with someone like the B-52's, i.e. they took something from the past and modernize that.

C’Mon C’ Mon… El Viaje A Ninguna Parte

Después del estruendo por su personaje como Joker, Joaquin Phoenix regresa con esta cinta que viene influenciada por esta ola blanquecina envuelta en nostalgia a blanco y negro, moda que impuso Roma de Alfonso Cuarón, hace unos algunos  años. Una historia sobre un reportero que sin querer retratará su realidad a través de los ojos de la niñez. (more…)

First Dates (Luke, Marius, Artem, Vyn)

Cw: Fluff

NXX boys x Fem! Reader

REQUESTS ARE OPEN

Luke

Luke’s style seems to gravitate towards stuff like them park dates and county fair dates, so that’s what he does for your first

He picks you up early on a Saturday morning, bright eyed and bushy tailed. You're almost annoyed because no one should be so perky before 10 am in the morning. And he doesn’t need coffee rude

The two of you stop for a quick breakfast before descending on the theme park

After that you run through the usual culprits: twirly rides, house of mirrors, a couple roller coasters (before lunch, not after), pretending to be scared at the haunted house rides

he shows off his aim at some of the game booths winning you exactly what you want

You even manage to convince him to do face painting with you

In all honesty, it feels like being kids again. Except kids don’t hold hands and find secluded areas to make out

In the evening you find a nice little hill--scratch that, the two of you are definitely sitting next to each other on the Farris wheel while you watch the fireworks

Marius

A date with Marius is upscale. You definitely need a fancy dress which he has no problems paying for

It comes in two parts

First he takes you to an art gallery. One he totally rented out for the night

You’re more than happy to watch him smile and talk about his art. He always lights up and sometimes loses that mask of the rich little shit and it is a treat

You spend several hours there, but he’s mindful of your comfort. Heels are a bitch to walk in for long periods of time. 

When you’re ready to leave, Marius takes you to a super fancy restaurant. You went a little pale when you saw where you were going, then reminded you that Marius has the money to volunteer to give you ridiculously expensive dogs. A private reservation overlooking a quiet park is no biggie for Mr. Acting President von Hagen.  

All in all, it’s very nice. You can’t get out of being the object of his teasing and no matter how fancy the joint, he still gets full named. 

Artem

A first date with Artem is classic. Dinner and a movie. 

The two of you ended up going back and forth about who picked the movie and diner, eventually settling on you picking the movie while he picked the diner.

You did your research and picked something that would appeal to both of you. A reshowing of a timeless chick flick: The Titanic (Is the Titanic a classic in 2030?)

Artem makes sure he has plenty of tissues he knows you’re prone to crying at the end

Afterwards, you two have an in depth debate over whether Jack and Rose would have both fit on the door. He tells you that if that ever happens, he’ll make sure both of you survive. 

For diner Artem takes you to a nice Mom-and-Pop restaurant. It turns out he’s been going there since he was a kid and the proprietors are really happy to see that “Artie finally found himself a nice girl. It’s about time.”

Despite their gentle teasing, the food there really is some of the best you’ve ever had

Of course, Artem drives you home himself and walks you to the door

Vyn

And last, but never least Vyn “here are my red flags” Richter

On the scale of fancy to classic to casual, Vyn ends up bringing you on a date that rates somewhere between fancy and classic. It’s classy, it’s upscale, but it’s not oozing “I run a conglomerate” either

He takes you to see a ballet or an Opera. Swan lake, maybe, Something refined, much like your date

Of course, you have very good seats. Vyn wouldn’t have anything else.

After the show, you go to a quiet, but upscale restaurant. It’s one well known for it’s wine, which the guy is an absolute stickler for. 

Vyn is a complete gentleman the entire time. Really, he always is. Treating you with nothing but the utmost respect, despite his concerning manipulative tendencies and you enjoy seeing a glimpse of what Vyn is like when you’re not calling him Dr. Richter.

#I think an opera or ballet with vyn would be so fun #granted that's a type of entertainment I like anyway #And yeah I think Titanic would be considered a classic in 2030 #luke pearce #xia yan #luke hcs #xia yan hcs #luke x reader #xia yan x reader #luke x fem!reader #xia yan x fem!reader #marius von hagen #lu jinghe #marius hcs #lu jinghe hcs #marius x reader #marius x fem!reader #lu jinghe x reader #lu jinghe x fem!reader #artem wing #zuo ran #artem hcs #zuo ran hcs #artem x reader #zuo ran x reader #artem x fem!reader #zuo ran x fem!reader #vyn richter #mo yi #vyn hcs

[agentfaust]

tried to include as many as possible, and by protagonist i generally mean “not an obvious bad guy the whole movie” which is why paris is here

would appreciate a reblog for sample size :)

[falderaletcetera]

because I'm partway through a reread and queueing up a bunch of reblogs about it, and it seems only fair to recommend it first:

Jack Farris doesn’t want to save the world, just every person he knows, encounters, or hears of. It’s a bit of an issue. S. Grey doesn’t want to save anyone but himself. He wants to know everything and majoring in sagework at the Academy is the best way to do that. Laney Jones left her home to avoid the constraints there, only to find different barriers holding her back at the Academy. Eager to learn, to excel, to escape, she has far from given up. Rupert Willington Jons Hammerfeld the Seventh would just like everything to be orderly, thank you very much, but it seems the only way to make monsters and myths (and malicious but mundane men) stop rampaging through his world is to go out and do some hero-ing himself. They are put together as an unwilling study group, but they become something more.

this is Beanstalk. It's first in a trilogy, all self-published, all free on the author's website, and the series is one of my favourites. It has:

– found family, with platonic relationships front and centre

– an adventurer's academy with a complicated legacy, where "hero" means a coloured armband and a diploma

– worldbuilding (appreciative), featuring an interesting magic system and monsters of all kinds, many of them people

– a red-headed boy named Jack, seventh son of a seventh son, who left the forest and grew like a beanstalk. You may recognise parts of his story. You may recognise others down the line.

– there's a whole cast I don't want to spoil except to say I'm currently rereading the first book and really looking forward to reaching the rest.

– there's definitely casual queer rep though. what do you take me for.

– honestly the writer (hi @ink-splotch!) writes all these characters with a complexity and love that I really admire. Some of the chapters that affected me most aren't even about the main cast.

— you may know the writer from her fics, the interactive games Stay? and More a Haunting than a History, or the podcast Second Star to the Left which she co-created with Aysha Farah. I can highly recommend most of the above and will get around to MaHtaH eventually.

If anyone's interested, I'd advise you don't go looking for spoilers. There most definitely is angst, but less so in the first book - hit me up if you want content warnings!

#I'm also queueing up someone else's rec for this but I wanted to put the platonic relationships bit right at the top #for ''I'm aro and I'm feral about it'' reasons #beanstalk #leagues and legends #that second tag is the useful one but every now and then I forget the series name but still remember the first book so I try to use both #falderal speaks #when I say I admire inky's writing I mean i have done for years #it's probably influenced my writing style a fair bit and honestly I hope it has

[nopefer-art-tu]

listening to ppl react to brokeback mountain is such a great way to identify who is good at paying attention to subtext and who is not lol

so many podcasters have cited the scene where theyre on their last campring trip together and jack tells ennis he has a girl hes been seeing on the side as proof of jack's bisexuality or whatever and like. look. you can argue whatever sexuality you want for him, but if ur gonna do that, CITE A DIFFERENT SCENE!

the whole reason the scene w david harbour and anna farris was written into the script at all was so that later in the story, when jack's dad tells ennis that he had another guy who was going to come up there and live w him on his parent's ranch, we realize that the "rancher's wife" jack said he'd been sneaking around with back in texas was actually the same ranch neighbor jack's dad was talking about, meaning jack was lying to ennis

and thats also why ennis kind of freezes for a beat when jack's dad says that, bc he's making the same connections the audience already did. or at least was supposed to lol

#its not that hard to understand people #i bet theyd have an even harder time picking that up if they just read the short story and had not seen the movie lol #cause that whole scene w david harbour and jacke gyllenhaal was not in the short story at all #we dont see any of jacks life in the short story so the only references we get to that mysterious rancher is when jack says hes been #hooking up with his ranch neighbors wife and then later when the dad says that whole thing about the ranch neighbor of his #like that scene was written into the script to make things MORE CLEAR #and ppl still dont get it #its just funny to me idk #anyways i love listening to movie podcasts talk abt this movie cause i love seeing ppls different reactions and interpretations of the film #but if ur gonna argue that jack is attracted to both men and women then please use a different argument ppl. thats the wrong scene to cite #brokeback mountain #still brokeback posting

Grey wrapped up Jack’s arm, mixing insult with astronomical anecdotes all the while. When the white bandage was secure, if a little lopsided, Grey went back to his star charts, and continued flinging commentary and critique at Jack as he applied bruise balm to his ribs, face, and right shoulder. “You just don’t want to get a new roommate if I get myself killed, ” said Jack. “It would be a hassle, ” said Grey.

“For Rupert,” said Laney.  “Do you have another boyfriend that might be lurking in the Graves’s dungeon?” said Spider. 

...

“You and your girlfriend having little secret conferences without us?” said Grey. 

...

The sound made Rupert shiver. “Your girlfriend’s the one who nabbed me,” she said. “Didn’t invite Farris for some reason.”

...

“I need to get to work, and so does Doc,” said Susie, as Doc nodded gruffly. “Jack, you got your people?” “Yes’m,” Jack told the woman.

...

“They’d left Dadlus alive. Your people."

...

“I’m hurt, Jack. Don’t you think, if I stole one of yours, that I would have the decency to make sure you knew all about it?"

...

“But also, yes, Jack, you’re special. You’re Rupert’s,” she explained. “That matters to me.” “Me, too,” he said

...

“Marian understands sticking with your own; she and I just both didn’t know that you lot were mine.”

...

“I’m a stranger.” “You’re Uncle Jack’s,” she said. “You’re not.”

...

“I don’t want it to be like this,” said Rupert. “I don’t want to leave holes in people, good people, my people.”

...

Laney lifted her head and told Jack on the upper bunk, “He’s bright, this adopted kid of yours.”

...

“I have a feeling,” Laney croaked into the darkness, “that was our boys.”

...

The sentry Jack was relieving glanced at Jack as he climbed up onto the platform and said, “This yours?” Grey looked up at Jack. 

...

“They’re not strange, they’re mine,” said Jack.

36) Farris Knight - starman XII

12 starmans, 7 manhunters, 5 phantom ladies, 3 martian manhunters, 2 gimmic girls, 2 S.T.R.I.P.ES, 2 skymans, 2 star-spangled kids, 1 brainwave, 1 iron Munro and 1 mist.

I say only superheroes because a lot of these people have supervillain relatives, it's also interesting to note that this the oldest super powered lineage in DC because Ramsey Robinson is the great-great-grandson of Hugo Munro the protagonist of the 1930 novel called Gladiator (one of the inspirations for superman) by Philip Wylie.
