The Saint: The Reluctant Revolution (5.4, ITC, 1966)

"You seem to know a lot about what's happening in our small country?"

"Well, I know from what I've seen so far that the sooner you get rid of this present lot, the better."

"Good! Then, uh, then you will... you will help us?"

"I was just waiting for the invitation."

[The 1-4-1 are making their way back to their base camp during a blizzard, Ghost is carrying R/n on his back. ]

Gaz, to no one in particular: *tired* how much further till we get back to the base?

Ghost: I don't know. I'm not sure how much longer I can carry R/n for.

[Gaz and Price stop walking look at each other than at Ghost confused.]

Price: R/n has been walking with Roach this entire time.

[Ghost turns around and sees that, yes, R/n is indeed behind him walking with Roach.]

Ghost: Then who the hell is this?!

[Gaz reaches up and pulls the hood off the person’s head to reveal Soap.]

Soap: What? I'll pay you.

[Ghost grimaces drops Soap and keeps walking.]

I was playing Gmod and accidentally spawned in a giant concrete cylinder that couldn't be interacted or removed without console commands, and even then would bug out.

Then I looked it up on the Wiki and it mentioned another debug entity called "John_Lennon" that some griefers would use to crash servers because they couldn't be deleted.

In October 1957 the Quarrymen performed one of their very first gigs in the New Clubmoor Hall, Paul unfortunately froze during his first guitar solo:

"For my first gig, I was given a guitar solo on ‘Guitar Boogie’. I could play it easily in rehearsal so they elected that I should do it as my solo. Things were going fine, but when the moment came in the performance I got sticky fingers; I thought, ‘What am I doing here?’ I was just too frightened; it was too big a moment with everyone looking at the guitar player."

~Paul Mccartney in the Anthology

(Picture presumably from their second performance at the New Clubmoor Hall)

Just a few weeks after this, Len Garry gives us an account where Paul seems to be pepping himself up pre-performance:

"Tonight will run just like clockwork. I am going to give the audience the best rendition of 'Guitar Boogie' that they have ever heard this side of Garston."

"Hey this is a new twist." I said, "Paul just cracked a joke he must have a sense of humour after all. John, shall we have him in the group?"

John was enjoying the banter as ever.

"Yeah, we'll give him another try and if you don't get it right this time Jimmy...", Jimmy was Paul's middle name, "then..." John waited to see the expression on Paul's face, "then we'll..", again a pause, by this time we were hanging on John's next words, " ...then....we'll have to send him for some more guitar lessons!"

Paul joined in the laughter and we were all back to normal.

Suddenly Paul started going through his pockets looking for some money, he soon realised he didn't have enough money for his fare home. Paul made this known to everyone on the bus, suddenly a man got out of his seat and gave Paul half a crown and then got off the bus. Paul was so thankful that he ran to the back of the bus and started shouting out the window at the man. "Thank you, thank you and I love you!" To which John remarked, "Hey Paul, calm down or they will think you are a bit odd - shouting out 'I love you!'" We all burst out laughing, we were all feeling more relaxed now.

Call Of Duty x GN!Reader

How they would react to you telling them about your anxiety disorder.

Warnings: talks of Generalized Anxiety Disorder. This is inspired by my own struggles as a diagnosed individual with Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Please do not self diagnose or glamorize mental disorders or illnesses.

Sitting down for lunch after this mornings long meeting felt like heaven. A much needed battery recharging time for you. Taking a moment to practice your positive affirmations and breathing like your therapist said you felt the anxiety simmer down. Only to be interrupted by a tray being placed on your small two person table.

“You’re kinda quiet and shy. It’s actually kinda nice being around someone that doesn’t feel the need to be the loudest voice in the room.” He nonchalantly hands you an electrolyte drink and takes a seat across from you before continuing his rambling. You look back down at your half eaten sandwich diverted your eyes from his. Eye contact is a struggle you’ve been working on. Still listening to his words you nod your head so he doesn’t think you’re ignoring him.

“I mean we all have to know how to be assertive in this line of work, but I can really appreciate your demeanor as a person. You have a calming energy about you.”

You laughed at his description of you and couldn’t help the words from spilling out. “Thanks, it’s actually just a disorder.” You let out a faint laugh. You always tried to find the humor in your situation.

He was too stunned to speak or finish putting his sandwich in his mouth. He put it back down on his plate before trying to find the right words. He was worried his words had came across as rude and disrespectful. All of which he was trying to avoid.

After realizing your blurted out confession you took a brief moment to compose yourself and your thoughts. Looking up at him you gave a faint smile trying to show you’re not upset. “I have what’s called Generalized Anxiety Disorder. People with the condition can struggle with different things.” Trying to describe your struggles isn’t something you’re great at but maybe he’ll understand? “Personally, I don’t do well in social situations, interactions or speaking up. It sometimes leads to anxiety, stress, overthinking and panic attacks if it’s real bad. I prefer to be hidden in the background away from everyone’s attention. I know my comfort zones and when to push myself. But it’s never affected by ability as a soldier.” You nod your head at your own explanation.

He smiles and nods. “I appreciate you telling me that so I understand you better. I do apologize if me saying your shy or quiet came across rude. I genuinely find you to be a great person to be around.”

“Actually you probably went about it in possibly the kindest way I’ve ever experienced. I’ve been told my quietness is rude or snobbish. Which is far from how I want to be perceived. So I actually appreciate someone taking a liking to it.”

It was nice being able to have a conversation about your disorder without feelings judging. Nor did he offer unsolicited advice. Instead he recognized that it was something you don’t openly share and appreciated your trust in him. And his opinion of you didn’t change. After feeling closed off from your team you felt a little more comfortable, with him at least.

OK... Firmin's Masquerade costume.

I will never NOT be amused by the original monster crocodile skeleton West End mask (row 1)?! Apparently quickly replaced by a more standard skull mask, as John Savident got to wear that before he left (left photo, row 2).

But then also Maria Bjørnson's revamped version of the design, where Firmin's green cloak is literally covered in skulls (row 3, row 4). It looks like this cloak version was only implemented into the Australian production, and with this also the World Tour - photos shows Kim Bong Hwan and John O'May.

I do however think it's curious that when they wanted to vamp up Firmin's costume for the reopening of the flagship productions in West End and on Broadway they chose not to do the skull cloak, as Maria Bjørnson definitely designed. Instead they gave him a black waistcoat with white skeleton decorations to wear over his regular cloak. Hum. I enjoy the waistcoat, but I also feel it makes him too similar to André. I'd rather see the skull cloak. Row 5 shows David Michael Garry on Broadway, and Tim Morgan in West End.
