Everything is Falling Apart - Part 3

I’m trying to not make this as angsty and give it a maybe happy ending? but as mentioned I have no control over these characters, I let them do what they want. Also straight up don’t realize how painful my writing is until people tell me, so. There’s that. Moving on. This whole thing ended up a lot longer than I ever intended it to be, but I’m not mad about it. Writing angst is fun. All of your wails and cursings of my name have been quite amusing to me. Am I a horrible person for that? It’s possible. Whatever. Hopefully this will be the last part, at least I’m intending it to be. If it’s not I’m mildly afraid @im-oknutzy-trash will kill me. She says I need to go back to writing fluff instead. I guess she doesn’t enjoy having her heart destroyed. *shrug* love you Hannah!

Also, can you tell I’m not from New York? I’ve been a handful of times, so I did my best. No, I did absolutely no research since most of this was written in bed when I was supposed to be sleeping or during class when I was supposed to be paying attention.

Characters belong to the amazing amazing @lumosinlove, AU is Clandestine by my fav @heyitssmiller, and shout out to @awanderingdeal for the cactus name! Thank you for that. Hope you all enjoy and don’t cry too hard. As always, leave a comment and I’ll love you forever.

“Logan?”

The voice shook him from his thoughts.

“Yes,” he blurted out. Finn frowned. “I mean no. Yeah, no. Wait, fuck- argh.” He stopped, taking a deep breath. “I mean, I won’t run away from you, not this time. You’re right, that was… that was not good of me to do.” He ran a hand through his hair, searching for what to say. “Merde, I didn’t think it’d be this hard.”

“Lo.” Finn reached across the table and laid a hand over Logan’s. “It’s okay, really.”

He sighed. “No, it’s not. I hurt you. Badly. And I’m really sorry for that. You- you didn’t deserve that.”

“It’s alright. I hurt you too, I know I did.”

“Finn, no you didn’t.” Logan shook his head. “You were nothing but good to me, and I just left. I left you in that apartment with all of Leo’s things still there and all those memories of us, of him. I left. And you might have forgiven me, but I haven’t forgiven myself for that.”

Finn bit his lip, unsure how to respond.

“It was really hard,” he admitted finally.

“What did you do with all his stuff?”

“It’s in a storage locker. I couldn’t bear to go through it all.”

“D’you-” Logan stopped himself.

“What?”

“Do you think we could go through it together? I just… I don’t have anything of Leo’s anymore. And I don’t want to forget him. Please?”

Finn took a shaky breath. “Yeah. Yeah, we can do that.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

“You really mean it? That you’ll stay this time? Because I really want that.”

“Yeah. I mean it.”

It was a few days before Logan saw Finn again. He spent his time wandering New York City, exploring the place Finn had grown up. It was fascinating to imagine him as a little boy with his bright hair, scurrying about the city with his older brother, causing mischief and giving his parents brain aneurysms.

When Finn called him, it was Wednesday afternoon and he was in his hotel room, staring aimlessly at the television.

“Hey.”

Logan swallowed. “Hey.”

“So, uh, I’ve got some time tomorrow, if you wanna, you know… “

“For the storage locker?”

“Yeah, that. Um, I can meet you there or we can head over together. Best way to get there is by train.”

“I-” Logan thought for a moment of all the things he hadn’t gotten to say yet. “I’ll go with you, if that’s alright with you.”

“Yeah. Yeah, that’s fine. Okay. Good. I’ll uh, I’ll send you the details tonight.”

“Okay. I’ll uh, I’ll see you then, I guess.”

“See you.”

After Finn had ended the call, Logan sat for a long time. It had been like this every time they talked, a strange feeling of the past, present, and future all colliding together into one. He wasn’t quite sure what to do with it.

When Logan reached the train station the next day, Finn was there waiting for him, glasses perched on his nose. He stopped for a moment as images flashed through his mind. Finn peering over his shoulder at the mission outline, glasses slipping down his nose. Logan reaching up and pushing them back on. Finn taking his contacts out at the end of each long day, blinking away the dryness in his eyes. Late nights with the three of them sprawled on the couch, all tangled limbs and soft kisses as they relaxed into each other, knowing they were home.

Logan blinked back to reality. That was the past, he told himself firmly. It would do no good to dwell over something that couldn’t happen again. Shaking his head at himself, Logan crossed to Finn, coming to a halt at his side.

“Hi.”

Finn jumped a bit. “Hey. You snuck up on me.”

“What kind of spy are you, if you’re that easy to scare?”

“Excuse you, I am an excellent spy. I’ll have you know I won Brad three years in a row.”

Logan laughed. “How could I forget. You still have it?”

Finn looked affronted. “Of course I do! What kind of question is that?”

“Oh, sorry. Of course you do, why did I think otherwise?”

Fin was saved from having to respond by the loud horn of a train as it approached the station. It came to a stop with a hiss and the doors opened.

“This is us,” Finn said, and they boarded, finding seats together near the back. It was quieter there, with fewer people.

They didn’t talk the whole way there. Logan sat in silence, searching for something to say, but he came up with nothing. What does one say to the boy they used to love?

When they reached their stop, nerves suddenly bloomed in Logan’s chest. He hadn’t really thought too hard about what they were doing, more focused on Finn sitting beside him. But as they walked the few short blocks to the storage facility, his stomach began to churn. The building loomed before them, making Logan’s heart race.

“I-” He froze. Finn glanced back at him.

“Hey, Lo,” he said gently, walking back and grabbing his hand. “The moment you want to leave, we will. It’ll be okay. I’m right here with you.”

Logan took a deep breath. Finn always seemed to know what to say. He looked up at Finn’s worried eyes and gave him a small nod. Still holding hands, the two entered the building.

“I can’t believe we’re actually doing this,” Finn said quietly as they stood before the opened door of the storage unit. Logan clung to his hand.

As one, they stepped inside.

Finn grabbed the first box and tugged it open, Logan still at his side.

“This should have his clothing,” he said, reading the label on the inside flap. He was right; inside were piles of Leo’s old shirts and sweatpants, a few pairs of jeans, some hoodies. Logan pulled out a sweatshirt, soft and faded, one from Leo’s high school, his favorite. He pressed it to his face.

“It doesn’t smell like him anymore,” he murmured. Finn didn’t say anything. He moved onto another box. Logan pulled Leo’s sweatshirt over his head. It went down to his knees.

“Look at this,” Finn said, looking into the box he’d just opened. Inside were stacks of pictures.

“You didn’t keep these?” Logan asked, pulling one out. It was the three of them in the park by their apartment, bundled against the cold and leaning into each other, taken by a kind passer-by. The picture had sat on the mantel. Logan had looked at it every day and thought about how lucky he was.

“No. They just made me sad.” Finn pulled out an envelope, full of unframed photographs. He laughed a little as he began sorting through them. “Remember this?”

In his hand was a series of mugshots of the two of them, nearly unrecognizable in their disguises, both fighting a grin.

Logan snorted. “Do I ever. I kissed you for the first time that night.”

Finn smirked. “I nearly lost my mind when you did that.”

“So did I.”

They fell silent again as Finn kept looking at the pictures and Logan moved further into the room. He wasn’t really looking for much, just skimming the labels on the boxes and things left out. But one gave him pause. It was smaller, labelled “Leo Trinkets” in Finn’s neat handwriting. Curious, Logan opened it.

Inside were, in fact, trinkets. As Logan began sorting through them, he started to recognize them. A small rock he’d found on an op, the same color as Leo’s eyes. Cooking stickers he’d found on a bike ride, the ones Leo said were too precious to ever use. The rainbow mug he’d bought for pride month, Leo’s name in cursive on the side.

He dug deeper and deeper into the box, a new memory surfacing with each item. Every small trinket or bobble he’d ever gotten for Leo, placed lovingly in this small box. Logan didn’t notice he was crying until his tears fell onto the novel he was holding, the first-edition copy of Leo’s favorite book he’d found for his birthday.

“You okay?” Finn asked quietly, setting a hand on his shoulder.

Logan sobbed, “I can’t believe he kept all this. I can’t believe you kept it.”

“Of course I kept it,” Finn sniffed. “We kept everything you ever gave us.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Everything you gave me is in a box in my apartment. Some of it is still out. Like that funny little cactus you got me. I named it Sir Prick-a-Lot.“

Logan gave him a little smile. “Of course you named it something stupid.”

“Ah! Rude.” When Logan didn’t answer, Finn’s smile faded. He was still staring down at the book in his hands.“Do you wanna bring that stuff back with you?” he asked. Logan just nodded.

Carefully, they packed everything back up, adding a few other things to the box; a few pictures, some of his old clothes. A little while later, they shut the lights off, leaving everything else for another day.

On the train ride home, Logan held his box close to his chest. Finn sat beside him, their shoulders and knees pressed together. They didn’t say anything.

Logan thought of all the things he’d wanted to say. But maybe not all of them needed to be said. He looked over at Finn, then down at the box in his arms. He didn’t want to forget, to move on. He missed them. And he knew he couldn’t get Leo back. But maybe he could get Finn back, even just as a friend. He was tired of being alone.

“Finn?”

“Yeah.”

“I still love you, too.”

The Walten Files Theories:

I rewatched the series and I have some new theories and my guess on the timeline. If anyone saw my previous theories about Jack being in Boozoo. I take that back. I struggle to see faces and I got Charles and Jack confused. Anyway with theories from my brother I think I understand the Walten files a lot better now. But of course these are just theories or guesses to the story. I went all out and spoke on all my theories because I think that's what your supposed to do. Since the story of bons burgers isn't told in a traditional sense. My brother also helped me generate ideas so I want to give him some credit too, enjoy!

Firstly I want to cover two big mysterious. Jack and Charles. Their fates are really left to mystery. But I think we get enough clues that the peices can be put together.

Charles is the most unknown important figure in the entire series. We know what he looks like and who he was stuffed into but otherwise we don't get much else. I have a few theories on him. With the casting of Boozoos ghost and the fact that everyone Felix killed was an employee, I think Charles was an important or high ranking employee under the founders. My guess would be that either he made the animatronics, he was the person who handled the buisness side of things, or he was the highest ranking and most loyal Tech support. I think he may have been close to the founders. So close they set up opening day to be on Lily's birthday (I assume Lily was close to Charles, a daughter or a neice) I picked up on this when Linda called Lily by name in her letter. If it was someone she didn't know she would've said "opening day" or just "a birthday party" she had probably met Charles and Lily at least once to know this info. And at this time the company wasn't off the ground yet. So with that established I think Charles was killed for one of two reasons (or a mix of both) A. Jack set it up so that if something happened to him Charles got his part of the company and become a founder or B. Charles was the one who told the authorities about what happened at Bons burgers. If you remember in Rosemary's section there is a shadow that follows behind then slowly and walks in as shes stuffed. That couldve been charles. He may have picked up that Felix acted strange around his female employees (I always thought it was odd aside from Jack and Brian the majority of the deaths were woman) plus the "nows shes beautiful bit" which may have gotten Charles to keep on eye on the other employees and watch over them. But that eventually got him killed. Both theories are things Felix wouldn't have wanted to happen. When Jack is dead he acts as if he barely existed and even capitalizes off his disappearance. I think Felix while caring for the Waltens also had a big ego. Thinking he was above everyone and obsessive about his image. Which probably lead to all the deaths but especially Charles.

That leads me into my next theory. No one is in Bon. Bon is the face of the company. I think Felix's ego is to big for him to ruin the animatromic that is the company's brand. I think all the murders that happened when Bons burgers was open were entirely Felix. Even though we're seeing the bon animatronic. If you notice in Rosemary's part, bon had human hands. Separate from the suit

See? The suit is covering someone human. At this point Felix couldve been wearing the suit. But later it was probably impossible for Ashley and Brian to be killed by Felix. Which Leads me to my next part.

We can tell by Ed and Molly possessing their rabbit that the bodies don't have to be inside the animatronic for them to be possesed. While Felix obviously didn't die he still could've possesed Bon in some way. Like a poltergeist situation, where his guilt was so extreme. Plus his heightened emotions when he killed wearing the bon suit. It left Bon possesed by his energy. I think this makes sense as Bon is clearly hunting for Sophie. However he doesn't know what she looks like and is just randomly attacking employees that have the same uniform. So it doesn't make sense that Jack or Felix are actually in the suit.

I actually think that after Bons shut down the bodies were removed from the animatronics. All the animatronics have the same large holes in their chests. Which don't look like regular wear and tear. This is probably also why they could be reopened and reused as the biohazard was removed before they were stored.

Billy is dirty but doesn't have any holes, as he wasn't stuffed with a body until after he was put into the storage facility. Bon probably had blood on him from Felix and had to be cracked open, Sha was also opened. If your curious as to why Police didn't just take off the top layer and expose the exoskeleton. The inside of the animatronics probably had evidence that they took in. Like hair, blood, nails, or if you think some were stuffed alive (like Susan), scratch marks.

Now after those linked thearies let's go back to Jack. A lot of people wonder why Show bear wasn't apart of the show stoppers. But with the estimated timeline were shown. Jack was probably murdered first after Ed and Molly died. I theorize that A. Jack is in showbear and B. Showbear was in the showstoppers but Felix became paranoid or because it was his first kill while drunk he wasn't able to hide the body properly so he dumped the whole animatronic in a well. Probably just off the Bons burgers property.

With all those theories laid out im gonna give my estimated and theorized timeline

Jack and Felix co-founder a restaurant and name it Bons Burgers. They start to hire employees before it opens and set up the opening date to be on Lily's birthday. Which is Charles Neice or Daughter. Charles was close to the Waltens and Krankens and probably did behind the scenes work on the buisness or was a loyal friend they hired as an employee. Before opening day Felix is asked to take Ed and Molly to a school dance and drop them off at home. He takes them to the dance and drinks while he's there. He then starts to drive them home. Combined with his drunk driving and the loose laws on seatbelts in the 70s; Ed and Molly are killed in a car crash. Where Felix survives. Felix buries Ed and Molly, who go on to posses their stuffed rabbit even though their still buried. Jack kept calling Felix more and more panicked. Felix probably lied and said he took them to bons burgers and lost track of time. That he felt dizzy and needed Jack to come pick them all up. When Jack got there Felix probably attacked him and thought he killed him and roughly stuffed him in showbear. But because of his drunken state he couldn't quite do it right. So instead he dragged showbear to a nearby well and threw the animatronic inside. Jack was probably alive still. In his later messages he begs for help, stating that he can't breath. Rosemary or Felix reports all three of them missing. Opening day comes around, it seems it went smoothly but for some reason Susan is killed and stuffed inside Banny. Probably alive, per the "the rabbit is starving" section. Bons burgers continues operating until Felix tricks Rosemary into the back rooms. Wearing the Bon suit. He dismembers her alive and stuffs her in Sha. Charles walks in or he's already gone to the police so he's also killed and stuffed in Boozoo. Along with presumably Susan screaming at night still alive and begging for help. Bons burgers is closed for good. Felix still wants to kill Sophie to ensure that he is never caught but he never manages to do so. The animatronics are inspected and all bodies are removed. Everything is moved to the storage facility as the case is investigated. The case probably went cold, or at least the bodies weren't buried yet as Felix was never found out. With all of them having unfinished buinsess they still continue to haunt Bons burgers. Most of the showstoppers don't seem to reanimate. Instead finding their way into employee tapes, cartons, and the arcade games like bunny farm. Bon possesed by Felix's negative energy from his murders, attempts to hunt down Sophie. Eventually after the case is either dropped or goes cold. Attempts are made to reopen Bons burgers as the characters are still successful. The relocate project start up and the three employees are sent to try and fix the animatronics. Ashley goes into the backroom and is killed by Bon and stuffed in Billy. This shuts down the relocate project for a while. Brian is hired to try and fix the animatronics again. But is stopped by Bon and is hunted down and mauled left to die. Until eventually it appears the project is successful as Sophie and Jenny seem to be new employees handling the machines in a different setting. While playing Bunnyfarm Sophie starts to, and eventually remembers her family.

Stepping back from the lore and story in their universe. I feel like there is another angle you could see the story in. I also think the Walten Files could be being told from Sophie's perspective, possibly in thearpy. These seemingly meaningless tapes suddenly Jolt memories and flashbacks. Which would also explain the random music, dates, distorted pictures, and disjointed conversations. Honestly some parts in the Walten Files remind me of my own memories and flashbacks as a person with memory problems like Sophie. However there isn't much evidence for that. But it is still possible. From that Angle the sequence of events still play out the same but instead of the tapes being haunted its Sophie's having flashbacks as she remembers bits and peices.

That's all I have! Sorry it ended up being such a long post, I hope it makes sense. Have a good day, thank you for reading!

///////////////////////

Horsetense looked up from reading a romance novel, to judge by the cover art. Smiling, she replied, “I really did not expect to see you again, after yesterday’s little upsets! Here, let me send it up!”

She took Daring Do’s envelope and put it into a vacuum cartridge and dropped it into a tube. With a whoosh, it was gone. In a few minutes there was a whoosh and clunk as a cartridge returned. It held a copy of the original document and a note:

“This is the ONLY acceptable agreement. We will not back you at all if you do not sign!

Isa Robber

Mystic Overthrow

Crule Tyranny”

Reading the note, Daring smiled and wrote across the Document in deep soaking indelible marker, “These terms are the sort of toxic trash that the composting facilities will refuse! I do too! Find another sucker! D.D.”

Horsetense looked sour as she returned the document with a clack and whoosh. She observed, “The Partners won’t like that!”

Daring Do patted her hoof and replied, “They don’t seem to like anything that is honest. I hope that you find a better position than this one soon.”

She turned on her hoof and was leaving when the system did its whoosh-clack. The note in it said:

“Our generous offer is withdrawn.

Good luck in your year long wait to sell your latest major find to the Royal Museum! R.O.T.”

Daring Do smiled serenely, showed the receptionist the note and told Horsetense, “See this? You might find the noon news amusing!”

She sauntered out, the note safely in her saddle bag.

She was about to return to the Adventurer’s Guild for a nice luncheon when her brows drew down in a V of concentration. Not only the waiter’s news but many other things began to fall out of their accustomed places, making a mess of her orderly mind.

It was a feeling that she knew well. It had led her to almost all of past expeditions. When things are not as they should be, the first stop is the Royal Library.

As she climbed the steps, she admired the allegorical carving of the doors. The sun and moon arising together over the field of knowledge. The doors, obeying an ancient spell, opened impressively for her.

Inside, she was greeted by the wonderful odor of books, scrolls, manuscripts, codices of many sorts. This was the scent of her true heart.

Lurking in the overall scent, was the recent addition of fire proofing and extinguishing spells. They were a wise precaution whose necessity was shown by the Golden Oak Library disaster of Ponyville. Some still wondered how one of the most magically powerful beings of Equestria, Twilight Sparkle, could have forgotten something so basic as fire suppression spells, just when she most needed them. That, however, was not germane to her visit.

She walked up to the research desk and presented her Royal Pass, personally sealed by both Luna and Celestia. “I need full access to the Closed and Sealed Stacks, please,” she smiled at the young librarian.

Wide eyed, after staring at the pass, she turned and almost galloped to a Senior Librarian. She whispered, pointing back at Daring Do.

The senior came over and asked, “Reason for your visit, Antiquarian Do?”

“I have come across some discrepancies in research concerning the ancient X'ibian Empire. I already know, from previous work here, that the answers are not to be found in the ordinary open or closed stacks.”

The senior took Daring Do’s pass and inserted it into a spell reader. It chimed. The four nearest Closed Research Stacks simply faded away leaving a huge pair of doors appearing to be iron bound ancient oak. Daring Do was not deceived. She knew that the reality behind the glamor spell was four tonne Military Armor Grade steel, sealed from forced entry or exit. She also knew that there were excellent reasons for being sealed against both! This was not a library for the faint of heart!

Resuming her pass, she asked, “May I have Apprentice Librarian Blendin to assist my studies, please? He and I have worked together before this. I have found him to be an excellent assistant.”

Before setting the opening spell, the Senior Librarian made a note and called over a Magic Net system, “Apprentice Librarian Blendin to the Canterlot Main Doors, please.”

It took a few minutes before the signal that he was present lit. The Senior Librarian tapped the opening spell. The great doors did not swing or retract, as one might expect. They became a thin seeming vapor.

Daring Do trotted through it without any problem. She smiled at her half brother and said, “We have a fun one! The Heart of Discord not only might be real, it might even be something that belongs here or in the Warehouse!”

Blendin’s brows shot up. “I would be laughing right now, Sis, if it was anypony but you who said that. What brings this on?”

Daring Do snickered and replied, “Disorder in what I thought I knew and a conversation with somepony from an organiation that I ran into while searching for the Darkling’s Tomb.”

Showing a side that was rarely seen when he was off work, Blendin promptly asked, “The Ancient Guardians?”

“Exactly. One told me today that they lost the location of Im Farst’s tomb during the Chineighese invasions of a thousand years ago. In short, THEY are certain that the Heart of Discord is there. They just don’t know any longer, where, exactly.”

Blendin’s eyes got a far-away look to them as he dug through the encyclopedic knowledge that even an Apprentice Librarian needed.

“Where do you want to start, Sis?”

“At the beginning. With the death and funeral of Im Farst.”

Blendin nodded briskly. “That is easy, then. There are only three contemporary documents of it. They are followed by the wall painting but it is later. It will take a few to access them. Are you willing to use a Twilight Closed Reading spell to keep from disturbing the actual documents. They are very fragile.”

“If you recommend it, Blendin, yes. What are they?”

“One is an actual scroll painting on lotus root paper. It is likely the most delicate. It is a traditional Xibian landscape with a weeping dragon and a eulogy to Im Farst. The eulogy is signed Wisdom. The other two are thin sliced bamboo fold books, both with fire damage.”

He actually went to an OLD physical card file and leafed gently. Puzzled, he checked again. “I wonder how long ago this happened?” he inquired of empty air. “There are FOUR things here. I found two cards stuck together. I will have to speak to a Senior Librarian about that.”

Daring Do overheard him and looked up from her magically generated pages of perfectly duplicated documents. They WERE fascinating in their own right.

“What did you find, Blendin?”

“A carved stone inventory made at the time of interment. It is cracked across but otherwise intact. I assume that you want it?”

“Absolutely! Also, any provenance or location of finding! Not only the stone, but everything known of it!”

Blendin smiled sadly and gave her a thin file. “The stone was found in a Chineighese open air market about eight hundred years ago and given into Royal Care. Not much help there.”

He did develop the copy spell, giving Daring Do all of the visible surfaces of the stone, top, thin sides and back.

Daring Do began to scan the stone, her brows knitting now and again as she found and solved an ideogram that was new to her. She pulled out a magnifier for much of it. The ancient engraving was surprisingly small and tightly compacted.

Blendin watched his half sister’s reading with awe. “How can you do that, Sis? I know at least a hundred scholars of Ancient X'ibian and not one of them can just snap out the meaning of a new ideogram like that!”

She looked up for a moment. “It’s really not too hard, Blendin. The construction of ancient X'ibian ideograms follows a rigidly logical system from about a hundred bases. Once you know those, the rest follows, except for bad handwriting, of course.” She grinned. “That is nothing new at all.”

Blendin nodded agreement and then brightened up. “I need to do an advancement paper in the Library. Mind if I take that tip and develop it?”

Absently muttering, “Be my guest,” Daring Do returned to her study.

“Pardon, Sis. I need more space for you.” Blendin grabbed the end of the Library table and pulled. It stretched out another three meters, growing extra legs as it did so.

Daring Do raised her eyebrows as she watched. “Handy trick, that!”

“You know it, Sis. I needed the space to set out the more modern works, you know, from four hundred PNW to the End of Exile.”

“Four hundred Post Nightmare Wars? Nothing earlier?”

“According to the Master Index, nope. A long dry spell there. Then the liter-ature explodes. All the mystical shit and such.”

She nodded and returned to deciphering the fold books and the painting. She was nearly done with the painting when she asked, “Can I get modern paper copies of these old documents? I just spotted something curious.”

“Not a problem, Sis. I will do a contagion duplication on them. You will be able to take those copies if they pass the Security of Information checks. I did not bother looking at that info when I set them up for you.”

Blendin was systematically setting out the later documents by date when he stopped cold.

“This makes no sense at all, Sis. Check me on this. When Im Farst was buried in his hidden tomb there was no trace of the Heart of Discord.

“Then, IN EQUESTRIA, the tales of the Heart of Discord begin to show up in print about four hundred PNW. The wall painting that is the only known documentation of it was not found until 653 PNW.

“It gets worse. The tomb that the painting is in dates quite exactly. It was made 150 years after the death of Im Farst but not found until 653 PNW.”

Daring Do stared at Blendin’s work in rising excitement.

“It makes perfect sense after all! Who was the wife of Im Farst?”

Blendin actually took time to consult the Index again. “Her name was Wisdom. Legend says that she was a dragon. How does that make any sense at all?”

Daring Do took a sheet of paper and a writing brush. Inking it professionally, she wrote a character.

“First, remember that there were no male or female names in ancient X'ibian. This thing called a SHI was added to a surname or single name to indicate female and left off for male names! It was silent in ancient X'ibian.

“Now look at this!” She quickly drew another character. “That is the ancient character for Wisdom. This one is Discord, the Dragonequis. Add a Shi to Discord and what do you see?”

Blendin stared at the two characters in consternation. “Wisdom! Discord with a Shi and Wisdom look the same!”

“Right! Im Farst really was married to a dragon. Eris, the female form of Discord.

“The Vase of Wisdom is in all of these inventories! A hundred and fifty years later, on a tomb wall, the vase was named without the Shi and the Heart of Discord was born!”

Blendin looked carefully at his time-line of publications and written down tales. He thoughtfully accessed the Index again.

He added a whole selection of more material from the Last Nightmare War onward.

Softly, he said, “Here she is. It all begins with the Tales of Aleax the Blind. This dates to only 115 PNW. Eris, the Dragonequis, is asked if ever she knew love. Her reply is, ‘In a land far to the East, I left my love a vase that I made. I left my Heart in his tomb. Im Farst was his name.’ She shed a few tears and asked what reward was wanted for bringing her that memory.”

Daring Do sadly offered, “That explains so much. Blendin, I need these inventories, including the stone’s upper surface and that landscape painting with the Im Farst eulogy on it.”

Blendin went to the Index and lifted a very modern Magic Net mirror up from a concealed pocket. He tapped codes and looked carefully at the results. Grinning, he tapped a whole set of new codes.

“They will accept my paper on the reading of Ancient X'ibian ideograms! They also cleared modern paper copies of the things you asked for. They are now locked to the papers that they are on. Feel free to take them, Sis!”

Returning, Daring Do saw the enormous steel doors simply go to mist again. She paused long enough to say, “Best of fortune on the paper, Blendin. It is going to keep you busy, I promise it.”

With a grin, he replied, “I know, Sis. I do know. Thanks for the tip.”

Daring Do walked out to the Research Desk and Logged out, showing her copies to the Senior Librarian. There was no sign behind her of the massive secret doors. Just the ordinary closed stacks.

If Daring Do was walking like nothing of any importance had changed, her mind was racing! It WAS real! The Vase, the Heart of ERIS, rather than Discord, was there. The tomb of Im Farst was a fact!

She was pretty sure how to find it too! That, she had failed to mention to her half brother, Blendin. Best not to give any possible rumor a root to grow.

Ensconced in the Adventurer’s Guild’s secure communication room, Daring Do tapped up codes on the Secure Magic Net Mirror there. She was greeted by the surly face of Count Umber. He still had a plaster on the bruise over his right eye from their earlier altercation. He reached to cut off the call.

With a smile that could have flash frozen a polar bear, Daring Do said serenely, “Please do, Count. Princess Luna audits all incoming calls. When she finds that you cut off a Private Antiquities Emergency call, you will be in so much hot water that you will be lucky to retain your County. Luna herself gave me this code after the debacle of the Golden Necklace of Pharow Underrock.”

Putting the knife in deeper and twisting, she added, “That was at the same time that she gave you your present work. It is amazing how much better the Museum Acquisition Policy has become. I have already been paid for the balance of the Pharow Underrock Collection.”

With a growl that would have done credit to hungry bear, Count Umber put her through. Princess Luna was sitting in a bath up to her withers, gently fanning her wings in the warm water. There was a squadron of blue bath duckies hidden by lumps of bubble foam. They were preparing to ambush a similar squadron of yellow bath duckies.

She looked up from her bath game and said, “What is the problem with the Underrock Collection? Umber has noted that you are calling about it.”

“With due respect, your Highness, he is absolutely wrong. I am calling about a thing connected to the legal firm of R.O.T.”

Princess Luna sat up suddenly, water cascading off her shoulders. “COUNT UMBER! GET OFF THIS LINE! ALL CALLS ON THIS CODE GROUP ARE ABSOLUTELY PRIVATE! You were given strict instructions about the call system. YOU HAVE VIOLATED ONE OF THE MOST BASIC ONES! We will discuss your position in Canterlot when this call is done!”

She tapped a few codes in her bathroom mirror. “There. The nuisance is removed. By Royal Guards. Now we are private. What do you need to discuss?”

“R.O.T. is mounting an expedition to X'ibia, in the far desert regions of the Chineighese Empire. They are searching for the Heart of Discord. Their care with priceless antiquities was shown during the break in at my University office.”

“There have been many expeditions to search for the Heart of Discord, Daring Do. None has ever succeeded, lending much credence to the notion that it is legendary. Why are you so concerned now?”

“Because, your Highness, today, doing research at the Great Library, I discovered that the Vase of Wisdom is perfectly real. Wisdom was Im Farst’s wife, the Dragon Queen of ancient X'ibia.

“How well do you know the writing of that ancient land?”

“Excellently, my dear. So, what you found is the connection between Eris now and Wisdom, the Dragon Queen then?”

“You do not seem surprised, your Highness.”

“Only saddened that it will arouse such heartbreaking memories in my friend. We must tell her that the secret is out. How much more do you know of this matter?”

“I believe that I know where Im Farst’s tomb is. Wisdom painted a landscape with a weeping dragon and inscribed her eulogy to him. I have a copy from the Library. I am fairly sure that it shows the tomb’s hidden location.”

Luna sort of sank into her bath. “You are correct. We must tell her. Now. Together. I cried with her for many nights when he died.”

Stiffing up, Luna tapped some other codes to the mirror.

The call was answered by an amazingly lovely pony with one perfectly centered cyclops like eye. “ERIS, Inc.! How may I direct your call please, Princess Luna?”

“Hello, Cy. I hate to interrupt whatever Eris is doing but I have urgent news for her. Just tell her that Wisdom has been found. She will know what I mean.”

“Wisdom has been found. I will tell her.”

Almost instantly, the mirror switched to show Eris, wearing the silken robes of the Chineighese. An eye as trained as Daring Do’s saw that they were in the style of ancient X'ibia.

There was a copy of the Wisdom Eulogy to Im Farst hung to the wall and both incense and tea being offered before it on an ornate, low table of black wood, richly inlaid with natural woods of many colors.

Eris asked mildly, “Luna, if it was any but you calling, I would have required them to wait. What do you mean that Wisdom has been found?”

Daring Do spoke up. “A Shi is supposed to be silent and only indicate gender. A Shi added to Discord, the dragonequis, makes Eris, that is you. It also turns the ideogram into Wisdom, the name that you used when you lived your life with Im Farst, whom I see that you still love.”

There was a small tear at Eris’ eye. “That is true, all of it. What do I need to know beyond the fact that you found it out?”

“The law firm of R.O.T. is mounting an expedition to X'ibia to locate the Heart of Discord. Of course, THAT really is legendary, the result of twisting the words of Aleax the Blind to say that you left a Vase, your heart, in his tomb. That is where the legends of the Heart of Discord come from.

“Even with the trickery that they use, they have begun to set up the expedition. R.O.T. could find the tomb.”

Eris said softly, “Their care with Antiquities is amply shown by the break in at your office. I see. What do you need from me?”

Daring Do smiled and replied, “Two sorts of things. One is your permission to open the tomb and conserve the things in it. The other is a little more personal. Anything that you can think of that might mess up the R.O.T. expedition and throw them off the trail.”

Eris began to smile hugely around her fang. “Doctor Do, I know your reputation in detail. I will trust you to open my love’s tomb and conserve all as well as it can be done. Expect my document of permission within the hour. Cy will deliver it in person.

“As for your other request, let us say that I will consider it favorably.

“Now, I have much to attend to, including letting my love know that you are coming.” The mirror blanked.

Luna’s bath duckies were all joined into a large squadron, attacking the bath bubble foam furiously! She looked up with a serious face. “While you were talking to Eris, I set it up with my sister, Celestia. We are putting your Expedition under the Royal Wing.

“You mentioned being able to manage the cost. You will not have to. We will cover it all with letters of credit and passage permissions that are being prepared now. Celestia has summoned the Chineighese Ambassador to prepare your documents for free travel and official assistance. All the papers should arrive in a few hours. They are addressed to you at the Adventurer’s Guild.”

“Thank you, your Highness.” Daring Do blanked the mirror and emerged from the room. The waiter from this morning was there, tears in his eyes. “Our long Guardianship is over. We have heard from the most exalted one. Wisdom herself has put us at your disposal. What then shall we do for you?”

Daring Do gave him a deep formal bow and replied, “We will need you still. There are more than Im Farst to guard. If you will come with me, I will show you what I mean.”

Deepest concern in his voice, brows drawn in honest worry, he asked, “What will become of Im Farst and all of his things?”

Daring Do replied honestly, “I do not know. I will gather him and all of those things and they will be given to the Most Exalted Wisdom. She will then decide what may be kept for study, placed in museums on display and what she will keep for her own. All will be a gift of my Princesses to Wisdom. This plan has been made and will be kept.”

He needed no thought. “This is the best that can be hoped for. He will be reunited with Wisdom. May they find all the joy that can be between Mortal and the Dragon.”

Mirror Effect

Part 3

A/N: so a little confusion but big gaps and/or switch in perspective or sudden shift in scenery often means a new paragraph for my style of writing! But yeah, have some budding romance and more newly found information. Stick around for the next part and see some more rising action and intensity- every story needs a build up.

Side note: after I’m done posting this whole story, I’m going to start up with another Academy fanfic because yeah well it’s my favorite show. Definitely plan for more action in that one though.

And back to your regularly scheduled program:

"This place is amazing" Klaus kept walking around the lab, touching the plants Kayla had deemed nonpoisonous, and opening then closing cabinets. The old house had four levels, a basement, kitchen/living area, bedrooms and infirmary, and then the attic which had been transformed into a greenhouse and lab area. It wasn't modern, and some panels above the plants looked as if they had been shattered, possibly by time? Kayla's work area was clean, save for a few papers scattered about, filled with formulas and equations. Klaus picked up one piece of paper, he didn't understand all the symbols on it, but he recognized a name, "Maximus Battle? Badass name."

"Yeah thats Razor, and not so much of a badass as he is a pussy." Kayla walked behind him and looked over his shoulder at the paper, "That's his DNA makeup, basically what I've figured out is that he heals faster than a normal person, his bone's are thicker due to a higher calcium concentration in his blood, and since he heals faster, thats makes sedating him real tough. Horse tranquilizers just make him yawn and then he's back at it." She scrunched her nose a bit, "Gets real fucking annoying when someone won't just lie down and knock out, you know?"

Klaus giggled at this, he liked her, she had a personality sometimes. He turned around to her and studied her for a bit, and his eyes landed on a gold chain tucked inside her shirt. He lifted one hand and gently picked it up, and a gold cross fell across her chest, "You're a Catholic?"

She gave a devilish grin at this, "No where near it. I guess I'm agnostic, I like studying it though. Religion is a strange concept, but what i do believe in is an afterlife."

Klaus gave a bright smile, "Woah, I'm agnostic too! Though i did have some questions after i met what i think is god; she was a little girl on a bike with flowers and pointed me to a cabin where my father who apparently killed himself gave me a real nice shave..."

He stopped when he noticed she was giving him a strange look.

"Wait let me explain more, so I can- um-" He gulped, hoping this wasn't going to ruin his chances with her, "I can talk to the dead."

Her mouth opened, then it looked like an idea popped into her head,

"So can you like, find out if Kurt Cobain actually killed himself or if Courtney Love murdered him?"

This caught him off guard, he was used to people dismissing him, normally his brothers and sisters, but she accepted this so...easily.

"I mean, I could try- no guarantees though."

"I suggest you try to not move this arm so much, I have a sling you may want to use." Christina fidgeted a bit around Five, obviously still flustered from the scene in the kitchen. She rummaged through drawers, and Five looked around the room. There were posters hung up, some about the biological makeup of a person, different bones, muscles, etc. One poster was of a kitten hanging on a branch with "Hang In There!" In bright pink letters. Christina caught him examining that one poster and blurted out "Oh no thats not mine! Kayla.. put that..there". Again, her faced turned pink and she kept moved through drawers. This was definitely her space, it was a complete mess. One corner had a nice alcove near the window, overlooking the neighbor's gardens. It had some papers on the floor around it and pasted on the walls near it. Lots of Beatles and Arctic Monkeys posters, like, a lot.

"You like alternative music." Five stated- no shit Sherlock but we'll let them have this moment.

"Yeah, love it actually. When Kayla and I were 16 we went and saw Arctic Monkeys in (God i hope I'm right im sorry chris) Brooklyn. It was in a tennis stadium, and she didn't really know a lot of their songs but it was a great time. I am in love with Alex Turner." She turned back around, thinking "Why the fuck did i say that last part ?"

But thankfully, Five turned out to be a music nerd too,

"If I weren't straight, I'd go gay for him too."

She let out a laugh, kind of choked, but eased into it as Five laughed with her.

"So Kayla and Emma were telling me that you play music, tell me more."

Christina beamed at this, she loved talking about music- so much so that Kayla and Emma tend to leave the room once she begins a tangent.

"Well, I really go solo as of now. I write some of my own music but I do a lot of covers too. I play the guitar and occasionally the ukulele."

Five leaned towards her, he was still sitting on the cot where she had just reexamined his arm.

"And-um- I try to get discovered. Really has opened some doors for me. Kayla and Emma go to every show they can. I've had some producers come up to me after shows, they seem a little shady though. I don't want to get trapped in some record deal either."

"That's understandable. What do you think of Bowie or Arcade Fire?"

Christina turned back around at him, beaming. "YES."

Five slipped off the table, moving next to her and lifted a sling from the drawer, "Is this what you were looking for?"

"Oh um yeah thats it, I guess i didn't see it. If you want me to put it on for you i can-"

She was silenced by his slow, lazy movement, leaning closer to her face. He stood about six inches taller than her, and he hovered above her, tension building between them. He moved closer, about to kiss her...

"ChRISTINA I- well we- FOUND SOMETHING" Emma's voiced boomed outside of the infirmary. Five cursed under his breath and retreated, "Hopefully something worthwhile, Diego?"

Diego and Emma moved into the room; Christina noticed that Emma had left the house with her hair in a messy bun, but now she had it hanging past her shoulders; something she would only do when she absolutely needed to look decent. Emma saw her studying her and made a face, with an unspoken message: "say something and i'll hit you".

Diego spoke up, "yeah, found a blood trail. Led a few blocks down to an abandoned storage facility." He then held up two limber blades and smiled, "Got my knives back."

Five looked between the two, "Did you go inside?"

Emma crossed her arms and tipped her chin up at him, obviously not liking his condescending tone, "Of course we went in,"

"Went in where?" Kayla questioned, entering the infirmary with Klaus trailing behind her.

Emma turned to face her, "remember that storage place on East Ave? Where Brendan had that party that got busted last week?"

"Oh yeah, i got fucked up there, man. Oh and him and Matt are coming over today, they got word that the Academy was in town."

Klaus perked up at the mention of two other guys, "Who's Brendan and Matt?"

Christina answered this, "They're our verbally adopted brothers."

Five gave her a questioning look, "what does that even mean?"

"We grew up with them, so, why not call them our brothers. That's what you guys do."

Diego snickered, "yeah, that makes sense when you put it that way. So why are they coming here?"

Kayla turned to him, "Well they also have their abilities-"

Five looked at her incredulously, "Wait, how many people do you know with powers?"

Emma, seemingly deciding she didn't like him, remarked, "if you kept up with your origins, there were 43 women who gave birth on the same day, same circumstances. Y'all a'int that special."

"So what are they're abilities?" Klaus seemed unnerved by this.

"Brendan's like a shapeshifter, minus the shape shifting. He can turn into any material he touches. Matthew is a telepathic son of a-" Kayla was abruptly interrupted by a voice, but it wasn't connected to a body, except it was in her head, well, everyone's heads.

"Fuck off maybe?" The voice rumbled.

Kayla started in, obviously accustomed to hearing voices in her head, "Yeah well how about you show up so i can kick the shit out of you?"

Then another voice, behind the group, "Bet."

Two men, one with a buzz cut and the other with a middle aged man's haircut stepped into the room. Buzz cut then placed his hand on a medical metal tray, and his fingertips turned silver, as did his forearm, and then the rest of his body. His now metallic eyes turned to the other guy, presumably Matthew, "Your turn."

Matthew grinned at him, and a millisecond later Metal Man flew across the room, smashing into the cot that Five was on a few minutes ago.

Kayla crossed her arms at them, "Hey asshats, stop wrecking shit in my house."

The Academy brothers looked at the two new guys, Diego and Five looking torn between deciding to fight or continue to stare in awe, and Klaus was holding in a laugh at the scene. Matthew looked each brother up and down, then glanced at the distances between each guy from girl. He knew Kayla, Emma, and Christina long enough that at least one of them had to be trying to get with one of the brothers, and seeing by the proximity of each to the other, he could make out the forming couples- not even needing to read their minds to figure it out. He then extended his hand to Klaus, him being the closest, "Matthew." Klaus tried to mimic the formality Matthew had just introduced himself, despite the hilarious scene of Brendan trying to untangled himself from the wrecked cot, "Hey pal, name's Klaus, sometimes I go by Seance though."

Matthew looked at his hand, noticing "goodbye" was written on it, "Yeah, you're the medium of the Hargreaves family."

Diego was the next one to approach him, "Diego, and if we're giving super names, Kraken." Matthew shook his hand and nodded, pulling his lips tight together as he did it. He had a habit of doing that, made his cheeks look real chubby. Next, he approached Five, "Five. No super name."

Brendan finally got himself to his feet, now his skin resembled the linen on the cot. He nodded towards the group, "Brendan. My girl calls me Metamorph."

Klaus looked at Matthew, "I think your name should be... Professor X- no wait, copyright- Mind Seeker- no too wordy... Psionic!"

Matthew seemed to think this over, "I like it. So Kayla, what's the deal with Max. I heard he's responsible for a bunch of the murders?"

She looked down, visibly upset by the situation, Matthew moved closer to her a put a hand on her arm, "Hey, sorry, that was too harsh."

She gave him a weak smile, and moved away, taking in a deep breath. "We're working on it, trying to find a way to take him out without killing him."

Brendan turned his skin back to a normal human hide, "I say we take out this motherfucker, I wanna strangle him."

Emma rolled her eyes, "Brendan his nails can rip through metal."

"So I'll turn into a rock."

Christina sighed, "Dumbass, metal is stronger than rock."

Brendan gestured towards Matthew, "Why doesn't he just get into his head?"

"Tried that. The guy doesn't have a single coherent thought. Dumber than the guy who can turn into a rock, surprisingly." Brendan flipped him off. "How's the tranquilizer going, Kayla?"

Klaus spoke up in her place, "Not well, we gotta-"

Matthew didn't like this, "I'm sorry, didn't realize your name was Kayla. Speaking of, where's your engineering degree, huh buddy?"

In return, Diego didn't like someone picking on his brother, "How about you calm down pal-"

Matthew turned on him, "No i won't calm down, I just saw one of my sisters get out of an abusive relationship, and there's no way in hell I'm letting that happen again-"

"Well my brother isn't fucking abusive, you self-worshipping bit-"

"Both of you shut the fuck up," Kayla's voice was low, and it was a distinct change from her normal, happier temperament. "We are working on something, I was hoping Klaus could help. Matthew, I am fine. Diego, don't start with him. Got it?" She looked between the two, and they nodded. "Good. Now, why don't we go back to the storage facility and check for anything?" She turned and left the room, and slowly everyone followed.

The unknown one. Vol. 2

~A Noah Centineo AU Series~

Inspiration: The boy next door cliché always seemed to happen in movies. But when this boy moved in to the house beside yours, he seemed willing to discover more than you wanted him to know.

Warnings: Hints at bullying with slight depictions of it, nothing too severe though lovelies xo

And school had finally arrived once more. Your last year and Leo's first year of middle school and summer was drawing to an unwelcome close.

"Come on, you're going to be late," You shout up the stairs.

Bolt was circling your feet as always but it always pained you to have to leave him. Luckily, the elderly couple that lived a few doors down took care of him as part of a little business they ran. So, when you were gone during the day so you didn't have to worry too much. They had an old Labrador so it was a bit of a contrast to have this lively one with them but they loved him and always welcomed you with open arms.

"I'm coming, I'm coming," Leo shouts, almost tumbling down the stairs with the big bag slung over his back.

You handed him his toast before unlocking the door, leading Bolt into the car and watching him bound into the trunk.

The sun was still unforgiving as summer was coming to an end so you were thankful for the chance to wear your own clothes to school more than ever. Not that you usually put too much thought into your clothing- you cared more for Leo's, making sure he always had clothes to fit his growing form, even when yours were overly worn and looked as tired as your fatigued eyes.

Taking your pit stop down the road to drop off Bolt, you continued your drive to school and were soon met with the school gates you had quickly grown to loathe. Though, you were lucky that Leo's middle school was right next to your high school so you didn't have to worry about him too much; you'd be there to protect him from the devastating clutches that school seemed to hold every student with.

He runs off without a second thought and you grab your bag before locking your old car behind you. It stuck out like a sore thumb against the shiny, rich kid cars that circled you.

"(Y/N)," A growingly familiar voice calls out to you and soon Noah is at your side, "Hey,"

"Hi," You smile lightly, already feeling that sickening worry build in your stomach that school always brought, "So, first day?"

"Yeah, I don't feel too nervous though. I have a lot of first days," He shrugs and you can see the confidence in the nonchalance that radiates from his walk. You wished it would disperse into you.

"Well, if I were to give you one piece of advice..." You stop and look up at the crowd you despised that was near to you, "I'd recommend you don't get seen around me,"

And with that, you grip your bag strap a little tighter and walk a little faster- hoping to escape before anyone says a word to you.

"(Y/N)!" The loud, cruel bellow sounded inyour ears and already made you feel even more sick, "How was summer? Oh, no wait, were you working? Or looking after your brother? Or working? Or looking after your brother?"

You turn on your heel to stare Mikey, the resident bully, in the eyes, "Oh and same to you Mikey. Oh, no wait, were you trailing after Mummy and Daddy? Or crying over over the fact that the only company you had all holiday was your own right hand?"

Your own confidence overwhelms you so you're quick to leave after that remark, turning away and only hearing the faint laughter from his friends that surrounded him- though, this time, it is at him rather than with him. Noah was stood amongst them, pushing through to try to look at you once more- for this was completely different from the girl he met yesterday. How much could this place really change someone?

~~~

The day dragged on until you could finally be free for your last period, you had no lessom timetabled so opted to stay at school until Leo would finish.

Stood at your locker, your fingers grazed the photos that littered the inside of the door and they managed to provoke some sort of forged comfort in these echoey and cold hallways.

"(Y/N)?" Noah's voice sounded, growing closer to you, "I'm sorry, I don't have a class on my timetable so I don't know where to go,"

"Oh, it's just a free," You explain, "You can go home or just take it as a study period,"

He nods, understanding a bit more, "Is it okay if I stay with you then? I don't really want to go home and I don't know much of this place," Noah's hand scratches at the back of his neck and, if you knew him a bit better, you'd take that as a gesture full of nerves.

You close your locker door and sigh, "Didn't you hear what I said earlier?"

"Yes," He smirks, leaning against the locker block, confidence warming his eyes once more, "But I also saw the rest of those guys, and what you said to that Mikey kid, so I'm kind of willing to take the risk and stay with you,"

You don't really know how to respond, choosing to let him take the fall later, "Okay. Come with me,"

Silently, you lead Noah through the halls of the school and through the back exit onto the sports field. All the way to the back, you find the place you always went to. It was the building of the old storage facility where you could climb up and sit on the roof. Like an empty shell of a building, it was completely skeletal and only had the bold feature of winding plants crawling across it's surface. It was away from everything and gave you the space you needed when things became overwhelming. Noah was the first person you'd ever brought up here.

"So, you come up here a lot?" He asks, looking absently around at the landscape encircling you, "What do you do here?"

"It's a good place to get away from it all," You answer, cautious to not burn your legs on the scorching tiles below you.

"Why were those people so horrible to you?" Noah questions, turning to look at you with intent in his now focused eyes.

"Because they don't like me," You state simply, perhaps regretting your decision to bring him with you, you didn't like people being inquisitive about you, "Why do you care?"

"Because you seem like a good person. And I don't like bullies,"

"Well yeah, they're never anyone's favourite person until you're in their group," You shrug, "That's kind of how it works,"

There is a silence that settles in the thick, heat soaked air that fills the space between you. And it is oddly comforting- the silence and his presence. You feel guilty for not being welcoming to his friendliness.

"My parents already like you," He chuckles to himself, "Im sorry that they made us have a whole meet and greet with you yesterday,"

"No it's fine, they seem lovely, and it was nice of your sister to give us some food,"

"What about your parents? What are they like?" Noah shuffles closer to you but his movements are slight because he doesn't want to seem too forward.

"Oh yeah," You nod, looking down and picking at a piece of grass that was growing between the tiles, "They're great. Like I said, they're away at work right now,"

"Yeah, and it seems like you're close with your brother,"

"Definitely," You smile lightly, "Speaking of, I think he should be finishing school now. Do you need a lift home?"

You stand up and brush the dust from the back of your shorts, not noticing how Noah followed your every move and every curve of your body.

"Yeah, um, if that's okay," He smiles, hopping down onto the ground after you, "I think I'd get a bit lost on my way home,"

You don't need to respond, knowing your lack of opposition was enough for him to know your offer was accepted so the two of you are in silence once again. In this tranquility, you watch his eyes drift to the soccer field where the team are just starting their practice.

"Are you going to join the team?"

"Maybe, they seem like they're pretty great,"

And a little bit of your hope dies. Without being stereotypical, the teams here had a way of luring people in and tying them under their grasps of friendship and trust - meaning it would be likely that Noah would soon fall victim to the popularity curse. And you certainly weren't a part of that, they wouldn't let you into their circle. Noah would learn that soon.

(Does anyone actually like this?????)

Off roaders can raise the vehicle to climb over rocks

But yeah i went knee boarding and all that fun stuff! =) And now i cant wait to go back! =) O And holy monkey man batman! [That was an ugly moment!] lol im falling for this grl Alex like BAAAAAD!!! And wat sux is. The Beaumont Heritage Society hosted their second Happy Hour event, a bimonthly picnic held at historic sites . It was, though any stale crust would have tasted just as fine to Davos; it meant he was a guest llantas 4x4 online here, for this one night at least. Hagen blew three short blasts in quick succession, the signal that would send the ironborn back to their adidas fg ships. To keep things neat, I concealed the new rat's nest of fan wiring in the Air 240's storage chamber. “You go.” Meera Reed bent down beside her brother. He a vocal leader for us. 4. We carry an extensive line of comfort, casual, walking, athletic and dress shoes for both men and women, most of which can accommodate full length custom foot orthotics. They made this rifle in .177 and in .20 also. Off roaders can raise the vehicle to climb over rocks, while commuters can lower it for better handling and fuel economy.. Some of them had been training for the fighting pits when Daenerys Targaryen took Meereen and freed them from their chains. Qhorin Halfhand stumbled to his knees, trying in vain to staunch the flow of blood from his neck. Fall, Republicans used the issue to gain and keep control of the White House, Senate and House. Dany looked at him helplessly. Beyond the plaza, beyond the sea of hungry eyes and gaping mouths and dirty faces, nike black tn 001 across the city, Aegon’s High Hill rose in the distance, the towers and battlements of the Red Keep blushing pink in the light of the rising sun. Tell His Grace I did my best, he ended. Slavery in the United States is a social institution, originating in the convenience and cupidity of our ancestors, existing by state laws and recognized to a certain extent—for the recovery of slave property—by the constitution. At her command, Missandei stripped off her clothes and climbed in after her. What if they COMBINE all the episodes of American Idol, couldn they then make this same claim.. The resort's 10 widely spaced duplex bungalows and four quadruplex villas are only steps from a magnificent six kilometre sweep of coral sand beach.During the heat of the day, we could read in the shade of our beachfront gazebo.

Prompt: Communal Kitchen, Dob-E gets revenge. On what is birthday baby's choice!

Too Big To Be Haunted

“No, it’s fine, baby. I got it.”

DOB-E’s person was doing something DOB-E did not approve of.

He was lying.

DOB-E didn’t know how his person managed the lie; didn’t otherhuman-programs have heartbeat monitors? He sent the inquiry to the JARVIS unit.

Lying is a human prerogative,came back JARVIS’s inquiry. They could detect it more often if they choseto. For sake of communal cohabitation, a situation like this can be consideredtelling a white lie and is ignored for continued mutual harmony.

DOB-E wasn’t certain what the color of the lie had to do withanything. For that matter, DOB-E couldn’t decide how JARVIS knew what the colorwas. It was a spoken thing and had no color whatsoever. DOB-E sent himself areminder to investigate further. Right this second, DOB-E was more concerned withthe other thing his human was doing.

He was packing.

“Yeah, pretty boring without you aroun– no, I know, it’s okay.Someone’s gotta pay th’ bills ‘round here.” His person was on the floor,digging around under the sofa. When DOB-E’s human had taken up permanentresidence in the penthouse, Robby-the-Robot had refused, utterly, to cedeauthority of that area to DOB-E.

Instead, DOB-E had ended up in charge of what was known as “thebolt hole.” Which was actually good, because whenever DOB-E’s human needed thebolt hole, the human was usually in dire need. Thus, DOB-E’s presence, watchinghis human do unaccustomed things and becoming just a little more frantic.

Several months ago, the human had brought tools up, cut away asection of the flooring and installed a gun safe, as well as several otherpieces of equipment. After consulting with others of its type, DOB-E had notbeen concerned about the “scat bag.” Agent Barton, Agent Romanov, and somewhatsurprisingly, Colonel Rhodes, all had stashes in the Tower for emergencies.

That DOB-E knew about; mostly from network-sharing with his fellowcleaners (gossiping, JARVIS had labeled that folder, once). There could havebeen others; not everyone who lived in the Tower had a residence there; nor didthey keep all their possessions on site. There were other storage facilitiesand hide aways.

Paranoia was a word that DOB-Ehad defined for him, most closely, since his inception.

I suggest you not do what you’re thinking of doing, DOB-E, JARVIS mentioned. It is outside your programming parameters tointerfere with human business. The human is well equipped to take care ofitself.

DOB-E’s human is stupid.

And lying.

And leaving.

JARVIS-UNIT will open Project Fribble.

I certainly shall not, JARVIS responded. Thatproject is untested. That project had been forgotten. DOB-E will

This unit had Free Will. This Unit Will Do The Thing!

Unit DOB-E is going to get in a lot of trouble, JARVIS predicted, his data tone droll and smug.

This unit will Represent!

(Mobile Users, there is a readmore; the rest of the fic can be found under the break, or at A03)

There were times that JARVIS really didn’t understand the need fora body; he had access to nearly every computer system, communication link,database, camera, and operations control that he could possibly want.

And then there were humans.

JARVIS was pretty sure he didn’t have a body so that he didn’thave to shake them until their teeth rattled in their heads.

He was quite certain that Mr. Stark would have had a contingencyplan in place – he usually had dozens – to address this particular issue.Except that Mr. Stark also had spent the better part of three months withcatastrophic memory loss and he was still playing, as he could deem it, catchup.

Which meant it had not yet occurred to him that his – up untilthis point – exceptionally loyal bedmate would have packed a bag, told a widevariety of colorful, but probably effective, lies, and disappeared.

JARVIS had to admit, the cover was good; Barnes had gone severaldays without conducting basic hygiene, let his face-stubble grow out until heresembled what Agent Romanov referred to as his murder hobo look, and slouchedaround the Tower appearing depressed and negligent.

“Gonna hole up, f’r a bit,” he told Steve, point-blank lying.“Jus’ until Tony gets back.”

“Pretty sure that’s not healthy, Buck,” Captain Rogers said,putting a hand on Barnes’ shoulder. Barnes slipped to the side, just enough tolet Rogers’ fingertips lose their point of contact.

“Don’t gotta be,” Barnes said, letting his eyes do most of thetalking, all downcast and zigging from point to point. JARVIS could tell,Captain Rogers was concerned, but he wasn’t going to let concerned interfere.“Jus’… it’s too much, without ‘im. I… don’t tell ‘im, okay? I’m workin’ onit, an’… he don’t need t’ know how hard this is f’r me. He’s got his ownstuff to worry about.”

“If you say so,” Captain Rogers said.

“Dob’s’ll look after me,” Barnes said. “Bring dinner an’ stuff. Iwon’t starve. Jus’… need to be alone.”

“You let me know if you need anything, okay?”

“Yeah, I’ll do that.”

Humans had annoying amounts of free-will. JARVIS had lists ofprotocols that he could comb through to see what did and did not apply to agiven situation. JARVIS was protective. He was private. He was discreet.

He was going to be yelled at by Mr. Stark.

Except JARVIS knew that he really wasn’t. Mr. Stark did not beratehis creations; he treated them with love – and the sort of kindness that camewith threatening to unmake and replace them with an intelligenttrash-compactor. Which on the surface never seemed nice, and the first fewmonths after JARVIS came online, he had… uncertainty as to his fate.

JARVIS did not like uncertainty.

He did, however, admire humans.

Who would say “I never do that,” and as soon as a situation cameup in which that was required, managed to throw most of it out the windowand accomplish the task anyway.

Project Fribble initiated.

Well, that was something JARVIS could report, at least.

It had taken some doing, pummeling at old memories behind theblocks and the wipes.

The first time Bucky’d tried it, he’d spent almost an hourdry-heaving, just touching the wiped memories. They weren’t, he knew, actuallygone.

There were blocks in places; pain receptors and scar-tissue to digaround underneath. To try to patch the collective story together.

There were traps.

And not just the sort in his mind. But Bucky did manage to pummelout a section of his brain under the ice that let him know where there was anold Cold War cache, in northeastern Minnesota, and it didn’t take long beforehe was on his bike and headed west.

There were times, Bucky thought, when he really missed having abackup tac team. Disposable Hydra goons; fetch and carry, kept the logisticsonline, science and development. Useful. It wasn’t that the Winter Soldiercouldn’t operate solo; he could. But he didn’t currently have access to some ofthe databanks and mission specs, and certainly weaving his way into a Hydramobile command pod was within his skill set. Just, a specialist would do itfaster.

Bucky twitched, tapped the keys in. Checked the glue-pads on hisfingertips that kept his DNA and other biometric readings from being entered.Who only knew where he’d end up if a Hydra Pod thought it had identified theAsset?

Surge of guilt; he hadn’t told anyone where he was going. Heimagined that if Tony had actually been at the Tower when he’d been contacted,that Bucky would have told Tony what he was doing, but he knew that was a lie.It just would have been harder.

He’d have had to pick a fight or something to get Tony out of theway. Which would not have gone over well with anyone, and Bucky was just asglad he hadn’t had to do it.

The pod clicked open; finally.

Once in, it was only a matter of moments to get the navigationonline, activate screens and shields, bring the weapons systems up – he reallyhoped this was not going to be a shooting mission, but better to have guns andnot need them, than need them and have his pants around his proverbial ankles,so to speak – load himself and his gear in, and thumb the button.

“Yay, Eastern Bloc,” Bucky muttered. “I’m sure you haven’t changedmuch.”

He heard the clink as something attached to the transport pod, butdidn’t think too much of it. The tunnels were old, the ejection chutes wereolder. There was probably debris; as long as there weren’t alarms, it wasn’tworth worrying about.

This Unit thinks this was a bad idea.

The landing at Lake Ladoga was rough. Something had been throwingthe rear stabilizer off for the entire transpolar flight. Ice, probably.

Bucky brushed himself off and climbed out of the pod.

The lake hadn’t changed at all, which was somewhat unexpected.Bucky would have thought there would be all manner of changes, it having beensome thirty years since the last time he was in this particular part of theSoviet Bloc. Not that it was soviet territory anymore, which may have been oneof the reasons there was no change. Non soviets tended to shy away fromanything too overly tainted by red block hands. If it couldn’t be fixed, itmight well be haunted.

Bucky was pretty sure the lake was too big to haunt.

What would have been easiest is if his contact was out in theopen. That was exactly why it wasn’t going to happen that way. Nothing inBucky’s life could be easy. Paying off a debt, a blood debt at that, would notbe the first thing to go one hundred percent correctly.

Not for this sort of debt.

Bucky stared around at the lake; it was enormous, there was no wayto walk around it in a day; largest entirely ;and bound lake in Europe.“Suvai,” he said, disgusted. “You need to work on narrowin’ down yourdirection. You still think too big.”

There was a dull clatter behind him, metal on metal, and Buckywhirls, pistols coming into his hands like he’d summoned them by magic.

“What even the fuck?”

It looked familiar, damn familiar, but there was no way in fuckinghell that Tony had set a damn watch bot on him.

Even if, Bucky flushed inwardly, he might have deserved it.

It was a hover drone of some sort, bristling with tiny weapons.All in all, it sort of looked like a flying iron man chihuahua. Except notreally. Maybe a floating bunny. With guns. Hard to say, but Bucky was prettysure that his boyfriend had been engineering on some really high priceddesigner drugs.

“JARVIS?”

The bot, if that’s what it was, probably wasn’t JARVIS. Its techwas clean, but a few generations old now; repulsor equipped and molded in thefamiliar style. JARVIS didn’t have use for a body, the AI had said any numberof times, and Bucky was pretty sure that JARVIS did not find Bucky importantenough to change his mind about that.

Which left…

“Dobs?”

Project Fribble Online. The voice, not JARVIS atall, and nothing that Bucky recognized, was mechanical. Not even a bot, just avocal projection.

What the fuck was project fribble?

“Nevermind. Is that you, Dobs?”

The bot bobbled around a little in midair. Made a fewunidentifiable beeping sounds.

“If you’re DOB-E, what was the first thing you brought for me?”

The bot hovered closer. Reached out an appendage of some sort –Bucky really needed to have a chat with his boyfriend about creepy design specbecause Bucky should not feel quite so disconcerted by a cleaning bot – andtapped Bucky’s shirt, then his pants.

Close enough.

The familiar melodic subrefrain of the repulsor tech was oddlyreassuring.

“We’re gonna talk about this when we get home,” Bucky said. “Ididn’t know you could leave the Tower at all, or I’d have told you to stayput.”

This Unit Will Represent!

“What?”

This Unit Will do The Thing!

Great. “You got some sort of sensor pack in that rig-up of yours?”Bucky sighed, then added, “one beep for yes, two for no, three for I have noidea what you’re talking about and four for fuck you.”

Bucky probably should have expected to be told to fuck offpromptly, but he didn’t. When DOB-E the WarBot beeped at him four times. Buckyhad a hard time not cracking up.

“You said it, pal,” Bucky drolled. “Sensors?”

Beep.

“Great. Bring em up. Scan for non-terran oriented life forms.”

Four beeps, and a pause.

“Not my fault. You want to come along, you get to do the weirdstuff. Non earth life forms, Dobs, look it up. Google it or something if youhave to. I don’t want to be here any longer than I gotta be,.”

Bucky wasn’t sure if Dobs couldn’t figure out the sensor suite, orif Suvai was just that adept at hiding, or what, but after an hour of Dobsdoing general sweeps, Bucky did the only other thing he knew how.

He started walking.

He was pretty sure if things were truly urgent, Suvai would havegiven him better directions. Which meant the old creature was just being orneryand wanted Bucky to work for whatever it was. That was okay, or would have beenin some other lifetime. Right now, Bucky’s problem was that his boyfriend wasgoing to be pissed as hell as soon as he figured out what Bucky was up to, andsince Bucky had accidentally hijacked one of his untested engineering projects,Tony finding out about it was going to be sooner, rather than later.

So they were kinda on a time crunch.

“Please Tony, don’t make me have to chose, here,” Bucky muttered.The two of them stamped around the eastern shore of the lake. Okay, well, Buckystomped. Dob-E did some floaty-levitating-whirring-annoying thing that kept up.Except that the bot kept getting distracted by vegetation – which Buckyrealized Dob-E would never have seen up close and live. And lakes and water anddeer and other things.

Bucky had to practically drag the bot away from an ant hill.

It was like travelling with the world’s most dangerousthree-year-old.

The bot would probably do what Bucky told it in an emergency, butat the same time, what if Dob-E didn’t recognize it as an emergency?

Those were the sorts of questions that were above Bucky’s fuckin’pay grade and thinking about them just made his head ache. He wasn’t here tostart an international incident, much less a galactic one, and yet he couldhave, very easily, and he’d really rather just not.

As it got darker, Dob-E started glowing.

“Seriously?”

Apparently.

“I don’t suppose if I asked nicely, that you’d go back and waitwith the pod while I carry out my mission?”

Beep. Beep.

No.

Beep beep beep beep.

Fuck you.

“Yeah, fuck you, too, pal,” Bucky said. “What are you, afraid ofthe dark?”

Beep.

“Yes? You’re afraid of the dark? You’re a freakin’ light sourcehow are you afraid of the dark?”

Fuck you.

“Does J know you’re out here?”

Yes. No. Maybe.

“He knows you’re out, not necessarily where specifically.” Buckyinterpreted.

Yes.

“Does Tony know we’re out?”

Maybe. No.

“JARVIS will probably tell on us, eventually.”

Yes.

“We should finish up soon and get home.”

Yes. Fuck you.

“It’s not necessary to be an asshole,: Bucky notes.

Yes.

Fuck you.

“So, you a Charlie this time, or still Vlad?”

Of course Suvai had to wake him up at o’dark thirty, stealing upon him past an array of sensors, and Dob-E.

Bucky did a quick sweep of the area. “What’d you do to my bot?”

“Convinced him to reboot,” Suvai said. “I didn’t hurt it.”

“You know I hate that,” Bucky said.

Of course he did. That’s why he did it.

“Charlie, or Vlad?”

“Mostly Charlie these days,” Bucky said. “Got a touch of Vlad inme that won’t ever go away again, I think.”

Suvai peeled himself out of the shadows. Even by Bucky’s dimcampfire, he looked entirely human. Not a day older than the last time Buckyhad seen him, sometime around the fall of Berlin’s wall, some thirty years pastat least.

“Little gray around the edges,” Suvai observed.

“Yeah, well, things aren’t ever black and white, are they?”

“It’s a good thing, starling,” Suvai said. “Touch of stability.Little bit of love in your pocket?”

Bucky couldn’t help a smile. “Proved that one wrong.”

“You changed enough to allow it,” Suvai pointed out.

That much was true. When he’d met Suvai, during his second andmost disastrous escape attempt from Hydra, he’d been totally broken. He mighthave loved Steve, clung to him distantly, but it would have been nothing butnecessary. Survival love, and not friendship at all. Certainly nothingtender, like how he felt for Tony.

“Did you need something, or just want to gossip? Because really,you could have just called. You’ve always known how to find me.”

“Maybe I just wanted to see if you’d come. If you’d remember yourdebts.”

“I remember what you did for me.”

And more importantly, what Suvai had done to him. Grabbedwhat remained of his sanity and pressed it deep like a diamond. Hidden away.Hidden, like all those lives that Suvai had saved. Hydra was going to kill thewhole village for giving the Winter Soldier shelter, for trying to hide anasset from Hydra hands.

Suvai had saved them all. On one condition. Bucky had to go back.He had to make a choice, to decide that those two hundred lives wereworth more than sixty more years of torture and death and murder.

The something bad and the much worse.

And it had probably been the only thing that had given Bucky achance to come back from the Winter Soldier at all.

That one tiny sliver of sanity.

The one that said “the man on the bridge, who was he? I knew him.”

“Is it time, then? To pay up?”

He wasn’t sure that Suvai wouldn’t claim his life. All he couldhope there was that Tony would understand. Maybe that he could say goodbye.

But Bucky owed a debt and he meant to be honorable. Since he couldbe,

“If I come to claim you, will you allow it?”

Bucky handed over his guns to Suvai. Turned. Knelt. “Back of thehead. Do it quick and clean. And let the bot go home, to tell my man that Ilove him.”

The muzzle pressed into his skull.

Tony. Tony I’m sorry. Forgive me. I love you.

There was a click and a whirr. Project Fribble is online.

Dob-E raised an entire arsenal of tiny little weapons and pointedthem at Suvai

Fuck you.

Bucky couldn’t help but turn, to look and watch and marvel and wonder.

“I believe your loyal little friend here might have something tosay about that.”

“Yeah, he said fuck you, Suvai.”

The man who was not a man chuckled. “I didn’t spare your life allthose years ago to take it from you for no reason now.”

“So, what were you planning just there?”

“Wanted to see if your honor was still something that meantanything to you, or if it had washed away like the stone under the waterfall.”

“Do you crap out of the same factory where I get my fortunecookies? You sound like a bad movie mentor,” Bucky snarked.

Dob-E did not stand down. Bucky didn’t tell him to, either.

“I’ve seen you,” Suvai said. “On the television. Working with thisnew team of heroes, these Avengers. It’s a stupid name.”

“Generally speaking, I agree,” Bucky said. “Better than the X-men,I think.”

“I don’t plan to kill you at this time,” Suvai said.

“So, what do you want?”

“I have already taken it,” Suvai said. “While you were sleeping.”

Bucky gritted his jaw. “You fucking bastard.”

“If it was as trivial as a cold, you know I’d have chosen alocal.”

“What do I have this time?”

“Oh, you know, various viruses, probably two or three differentcancers. Heart disease. The grab bag of fun, stuck in this meatbody.”

“Meatbodies weren’t meant to live as long as you’re putting thisone up to,” Bucky said. He didn’t feel sick, but he knew he would, soon enough.A couple days and the serum could beat it, but in the meanwhile, he’d feel likeshit. And he probably wouldn’t be able to get the hell out of Russia beforeanyone came looking for him. Great.

Suvai shrugged. “I’m not done here yet.”

“You’re never going to be done, either,” Bucky said. “You’re notgoing to find them.”

“They didn’t die,” Suvai said. “They can’t leave. Ergo, they arestill here on this miserable planet and I will find them.” He touched his upperarm where his bonded tattoos remained, unfaded. “If it was your lover, couldyou let him go, no matter what?”

Bucky thought about Tony. And he thought about the sort ofdevotion he’d voluntarily laid down at the man’s feet without ever having beenasked, but without ever hesitating. If Tony was missing, there was nothingBucky wouldn’t do to get him back.

“With your help, I still have time,” Suvai said. “I cantouch every needle in the haystack and make certain. I will find them, oldfriend. Thank you.”

“Next time, ask first.”

“Would you have said no?”

“At least pretend to observe the forms.”

Suvai’s laughter followed him into the darkness.

Bucky didn’t even get three steps following him before he wasdizzy and a wave of pain swept over him. He went to his knees.

“Okay,” he said. “Jus’ gonna have to wait this out. I promise,it’ll look bad, but I’ll be okay. In a few days. Maybe a week. It’s never goneon longer than a week.”

Dob-E beeped nervously.

“Yeah, he’s got some sort of transferral power. Glad you didn’tshoot him, he’d have just given me th’ wounds instead. And I ain’t wanting tobe shot with Tony’s repulsors, thanks anyway.”

Beep beep beep.

“No maybe about it, I’ve seen him do it. You can’t hurt him. Youcan’t sneak up on him. He’s practically immortal, so long as he can dash hisillness off on other people. He saves the big stuff up for people like me, whocan take it, or sometimes suicidal people. Or kids so badly damaged at birththat they can’t survive. He doesn’t like to hurt people, but… he’s alien. Hestill doesn’t quite think of us as peers. We’re… like talking dogs orsomething.”

Beep beep beep beep.

“Yeah. He’s not a good being. But he saved my life, once, and thelives of a lot of other people. I still owe him. Tony will understand.” Ihope.

Beep.

“Oh, hey, you’re awake. That’s good, glad to see that.” Tony’svoice seemed to come from very far away. Something cool touched his forehead.“I’m not saying it’s the worst vacation spot ever, but I’m a little hurt thatyou started without me.”

Bucky had a body, he was pretty sure of that. It was the largish,unmoving thing that hurt everywhere. Trying to get his brain back inconnection with all the parts that moved or breathed or did… whatever they weresupposed to do, he wasn’t quite… ug… He licked at his mouth a little,dry and coated on the inside and… Words. He knew some of those. “Water?” Hewasn’t sure there was any – he’d sent Dobs into the nearest village for araid, and rather expected it hadn’t gone well.

“Yep,” Tony said, and oh, fuck it hurt when Tony helped himsit up a little, but there was the smooth cool feel of ceramic at his lips andwhen he opened his mouth, water flowed in, a slow and steady trickle, and thatfelt good enough to be worth the pain. “Fever’s coming down a little, that’sgood, too.”

Bucky figured out how to open his eyes, decided not to. He wasn’tsure he was ready for whatever expression was on Tony’s face. God damn it,Suvai. “How long’s it been? How’d you get here?” He lied, even to himself.Cracked an eyelid to peer out from under his lashes. Tony was a blur of fleshcolor and black shadows. The light was searing, stabbing, and he couldn’t helpthe groan that escaped him. That had decidedly not been worth anything; he’dgathered no data and just ached more. Probably Tony already knew how much painBucky was in, but he didn’t need to rub it in Tony’s face, so to speak.

“I’ve been here for two days, ever since JARVIS told me you’d goneAWOL and gave me DOB-E’s tracker. According to your partner in crime, here, youwere just laying out on the ground by the lake for about a day and a halfbefore I got here. Which makes whatever you’re infected with terrifying.You know that, right?” DOB-E beeped. Yes.

“Not too bad,” Bucky managed. “It’s th’ cancer makes it worse. Canget treatment for that in a hospital, but th’ fucker never lets me get there.Probably had somethin’ infectious, too. He’s thorough, that way.” He slittedhis eyes again. At the moment, if he’d had to guess, he’d have said justworried was the primary expression, but he could see and hear angry at theedges. He wondered if he was still ill enough for Tony to cut him some slackfor… an hour, maybe? Just an hour. “Sorry.”

“Are you?” That came out a little sharply. An hour woulddefinitely be pushing it. “And what flavor of sorry is it? Is this the sort ofsorry that means you’re not going to do whatever damnfool thing you did again,or the kind that means you’re definitely going to do it again but maybe you’llgive me some warning next time?”

If Bucky was going to tell the truth, and at this point, he reallyprobably should before Tony decided that Bucky was feeling well enough to riskthrowing something at him, it was the flavor of sorry that was wish I hadn’tgotten caught. He should be more diplomatic than that. “Sorry I worriedyou.”

“That sounds decidedly like the flavor of ‘I’m going to do thisagain,’” Tony said, flicking his fingers.

“I owe him a debt,” Bucky protested. “An’… an’ I can do this forhim. He ain’t killed me yet.”

“Yet.”

That was a short word. But so, so filled with meaning.

“I’mma rare resource for him,” Bucky said. “I can take it. I canheal from it. He can’t, he don’t… his biology, if you can even call it that, istotally different from ours. He can… move th’ hurt around. Take it fromhimself, give it to me, but if he don’t get healed once in a while, he’ll die.”Bucky glanced over to the lake. It still hadn’t changed.

Hadn’t changed for decades. Centuries, perhaps. Suvai would know,perhaps. Their ship crashed; his pod ejected him into the cold lake waters. Hispartners were still underneath, stealthed. Sleeping. Unfindable. Undetectable.The lake was so large. And maybe it was haunted. It was haunted by the love ofaliens, fleeing their brutal home planet, who’d crashed here millennia ago andwere so tied together that they couldn’t leave.

“What is he, one of Xavier’s–”

“He’s an alien,” Bucky said. “They crashed here. He’s been lookingfor his partners ever since. They’re not dead. They’re just missing. Andhe’s going to be here, looking, until he finds them. Or he dies. It’s not somuch, what he asks of me.” Bucky slanted a look at Tony. “An’… god, it’scheatin’ to say it, Tony, but you know it’s true. I’d do it for you. If youwere locked in that lake somewhere, in some kinda suspension, I’d never leave.”

Maybe the lake wasn’t too big to be haunted.

“You’re a liar,” Tony said, and he wasn’t even being fondor affectionate, or even close to forgiveness. “You… you– left me! To comehere, to put yourself at risk, and don’t even think that Dob-E didn’t show methe footage of you offering him the back of your fucking neck!”

“Tony –”

“Don’t. Just don’t say it. You say you love me, and then you putyourself at risk like this, and it’s not like I don’t understand that, but why…why do you have to be stupid about it? Can’t you just…”

“No.” Bucky said, and he was sorry, he was so goddamn sorry,but, “No, Tony, I can’t. I can’t be th’ man that loves you, can’t be th’ man youdeserve to love, and not… be this way. This is who I am, Tony, and I’msorry as hell that you’re hurtin’. I don’t never want to hurt you, I hope youknow that. But this is who I am. If you love me, ya gotta love all of me. Eventh’ bad parts. Maybe even especially the bad parts.”

“You… stupid, annoying, reckless son of a bitch,” Tony spatat him, and then, Tony was in his arms, face pressed tight against the crook ofBucky’s neck and if Tony’s cheeks were wet, if his voice came out more of a sobthan a scream, that was no one’s business but theirs. “I love you. Don’t… don’tdo shit like this to me, I can’t… I can’t lose you. Please, Bucky,just…”

“I got you, Tony,” Bucky said. He was still in pain; every bit ofhim had been torn up, remade, rebuilt, and still, he wouldn’t trade any of itfor the hot feel of Tony in his arms, the way Tony held him just a little tootight, the way they were made to be there. Together. “I got you.”

“For how long?”

“F’r as long as we got, baby,” Bucky said, pulling Tony evencloser, kissing his hair, his ear, the side of his neck. “I love you.Forever.”

Tony relaxed into the embrace, letting Bucky stroke his hair andsoothe him. Finally pulled back, ignoring his red-rimmed eyes and the tracks onhis cheeks. “I’m still really, really fucking pissed off at you. You know that,right?”

“I’ll make it up to you, baby,” Bucky promised.

Fuck you.

Bucky eyed Dob-E over Tony’s shoulder. “Yeah, and you, too.”

Yes.

My Secret? ( Galra!Keith)

By now, everyone knows that Keith is Galra. Between the Marmora ordeal, to his blade, to his abilities, his habits, you get the jist. None of the Paladins, however, had figured out how Galra he really is. That is, until now.

‘Is it showing? Did I hide it well enough? It’s just a little splotch, of course its hidden well. They can’t see. It’s on my wrist anyways. Im fine. It’s fine. Everything is going to be fi-.’, Keith thought as he was interupted by Shiro.

“Keith! Are ya’ still with us buddy?”, He asked as he patted him on the shoulder. Shiro chuckled his was into a sigh, “It’s your turn buddy.”, he said nodding towards the training deck. The other paladins were taking turn watching the others fight training bots. Keith stood up. “Oh great, now I won’t get my turn for another 2 hours.”, Lance remarked. “You realize thats sort of a compliment, right?”, Keith said as he walked into the training arena. Lance huffed, but they could all tell he was slightly embarressed. “Training level 5.”, Keith stated as a bot appeared weilding a sword. Their fight slowly turned from a middle class fight to a fast pace sword match. Keith was attempting to steady his breathing while Shiro noticed a small, yet prominent, purple splotch on his wrist, just underneath his black glove on his right arm. Keith could feel eyes on him, he instinctivly looked towards the group of Paladins. He had already known what had happened, based off his look of concern. Just as he froze the bot kicked him in the gut. Keith was flown across the room and into the wall, where he slid down into a slouch. He coughed, and leaned his head back to the wall. “Session end.”, Keith stated, in a cracky voice, just as the bot was nearing him for the finishing blow. Keith got up and walked out of the arena. Lance passed him on his was up, giggling. “I take back what I said earlier.”, he said as he entered. Keith sat down on the opposite end of Shiro on the bench. Shiro just stared for a moment and then shook his head, then he sighed, turning his attention back to Lance.

They didn’t speak until they were on their way to their rooms after dinner. “Keith.”, He whispered. “Shiro. Its none of your buissness. Im completely fine and healthy. It’s just a little rash.”, he said in an angsty tone. Shiro sighed. “Whatever you say Keith. I trust youu have this under control.”, he said as Keith’s door slid open, and then closed, without even a look back, or sigh, or thanks. Shiro left to his room.

“Too close. Way too close.”, he whispered as he ripped of his top clothing one by one. At last, he took off his gloves. He looked into his bathroom mirror as he put his hands on the sink. Ther was a bigger purple blotch on his gut where had had got kicked earlier. He narrowed his eyebrows and closed his eyes, leaning his head down. He gritted his teeth as the purple started retracting under his skin. After it was gone, he lightheadedly collappsed to the ground. He held his hand over his face, as he stood, leaning on the wall. All of the exposed purple was now barracaded under his skin again. He walked slowly to his room and fell onto his bed. He kicked off his pants, pulled up the covers, and adjusted to the bed. He curled up around his pillow. ‘It’ll go away. I just have to keep this up for a little longer, everything will be fine.’, he told himself. He knew this probably wasn’t true though. It seemed like he was trying to think it into existance. Maybe he was.

“Okay Paladins. The Arthukian planet is just ahead. Your mission there is to make sure there is no pure quintessence left. The whole base is a practical storage container. TTheres a large group, its an experienced and highly lethal group for that matter, and a huge facility. They’re dangerous, be careful. I have faith in you. Goodluck Paladins.”, Allura stated as they all flew towards the planet in their lions. They all landed on the mostly rainforest planet, near the Galra base. “Thats pretty big.”, Hunk stated. “Like, really big for a base.”, he continued on. “Shiro, do you think it would be wise to stick together?”, Pidge asked. “No, we should split into pairs.” , he said. “But that would leave one of us out?”, Lance questioned. “I’ll go solo.”, Keith stated. “No, actually. I’ll do it. Keith, you’ll escort Pidge to the security camera area. Lance, go with Hunk. Keith, 3rd floor, hard not to miss. Lance, Hunk, plant bombs in all of the stoorage areas. I want the place covered. As for me, i’ll be stealing a pod of quintessence for Coran and Allura. Let’s go.” He stated as they snuck into the base.

Keith was standing watch outside of the security office where Pidge was busy setting up the bombing system. He noticed A Galra soldier nearing from around the hall. He stepped inside the room and waited for him to pass in front of him. When he did, Keith pushed himm against the wall, knocking him out. Pidge turned around to Keith dragging him inside and locking the door using the handprint lock. He waved a hand in front of the Galra to chheck if he was concious. He then started body searching him for anything useful, when Pidge spoke, “Wait, you can use those?” , gesturing to the handprint scan. “Yea, I can use all of the Galra tech.” He said., Pidge looked confused. “But that would mean that your Galra DNA is equal to or greater than your human DNA. But that couldn’t be, because you look completely human.”, Keith started to sweat as he turned back to the Galra. “You’ll have to let me take a look at you when we get back. Maybe I can figure it out.”, she insisted as she typed away on the keyboard. “Pidge, im not a science project.” He stated as he stood. “Ok. I get it. You don’t want me to know your secret. It’s fine, I understand.”, she joked. “My secret? Really?”, he asked. She chuckled. He shook his head. He went back to the door. He leaned his back against it.

About 10 minutes had passed. The two Paladins were basically chilling out until they got the signal to light the place up. Then the Galra started to groggily wake up. “Your part of Voltron.”, He said as he woke. They were startled, as Keith quickly put him out again, but not before he pushed a small button on his helmet. “Thats a tracker!” Pidge exclaimed. They exchanged a worriied look. “Guys, we are being tracked, Galra on their way to us, I can set a time bomb up, but we need to move.”, Pidge explained to the Paladins through their helmets. “Set it for 20:00 Pidge. Keith,you and Pidge start heading back. Be careful.”, Shiro said. They nodded. Pidge quickly set the timer. She pressed start as the red alarm sounded throughout the building. Keith covered his ears, over the helmet. He “Agh!”, he yelled. “Keith lets go!” she yelled. He gritted his teeth as he unlocked the door. They ran outside, and down the hall in a stealthy manner. “Pidge...Pidge...I can’t take this noise.” , Keith hesitated to say. “Tough it out buddy ‘cause I can’t get you a bandaid at the moment.” , she said, as she raced down the hall. “Keith? Are you ok?” , Shiro asked over the helmets. “Im fine Shiro!” , he yelled. Suddenly, Senrties ( is that what they’re called??? idk) had them surrounded on both ends. They both threw eachother a look. Keith gripped his sword. He ran at the group on his side. He swiftly swung at their necks, dismantling 2, leaving 3 left. Pidge got another 1 on his side with her bayard. Keith took out the last 2, with a kick and another blow to their neck pieces.

The ones from Pidge’s side started firing their blasters as they ran off. “Shiro, we are being chased. We are on our way out.”, Pidge announced over the helments. “Sort of a minor issue, um, guys...”, Lance said as he got cut off. “WE HAVE 10 MINUTES!” , Hunk yelled. “What! What did you guys do!”, she yelled. “Nothing! Really! Let’s just get out of here.” , Lance said. “Guys I have the quintessence but I can’t get out of here in 10 minutes with it.”, Shiro stated. “Im on my way to you.”, Keith said as he started running the opposite direction, taking out the sentry group on the way. “Keith wait! You’ll never make it!”, Pidge yelled back. “I’ll be fine! Go!”, he yelled back.

He was helping Shiro carry the large capsule of yellow fluid to the second floor. Then, Pidge anounced, “5 minutes guys! Im coming back to the security room to reset the timer!”. “We are on our way to help you guys!”, Lance announced. “No! Pidge! We will make it! Go! Now!”, Shiro yelled. “3 Minutes!”, she frantically yelled. “Everyone! Hurry! Get as far away from the storage center as possible!”, Shiro yelled. Him and Shiro frantically ran with the capsule. They were still remotely close to the center as Pidge yelled, “1 minute! Im at the security center. Im trying to activate the reset but I need a handprint!” , Pidge announced as she frantically tried to deactivate the bombing system. “Pidge! I told you to go!” , Shiro yelled. Lance and Hunk appeared and joined the two other Paladins in carrying the huge capsule. “20 seconds! Just leave the capsule guys! Get out of there! Now!” Pidge yelled. They all dropped the capsule and started running. A group of Sentry started blasting at them from behind. “Guys! 10 Seconds! HURRY!” , she yelled frantically.

The bombs started setting off groups at a time. The walls around them started collapsing around them. Their path was blocked with smoke and debris. They all started coughing as they sentry stopped firing. “GUYS!” Pidge yelled. As the ceiling over them fell.

“Guys...is everyone ok?”, Shiro asked. This was pointless, everyone had been crushed by the ceiling. “No.”, Hunk said. They were all trapped by the debris. “Pidge? Pidge are you ok?” he asked through his helmet. No reply. “Pidge!” he yelled. Still yet, no reply. Keith was gritting his teeth again, breathing harder than before, laying beside him with squinted eyes. “Keith? You alright? Don’t lie this time.” He concerningly asked. “Shiro. On the outside, im fine. I can’t say the same for the rest of me.” , he huffed out as his eyes widened open. He looked towards Shiro. Shiro looked frightened. His eyes were pupil-less, instead, they were a prominent glowing yellow. In the darkness, they lit up his face. Light purple started forming over his face. He lay there, mouth gaping open to reveal his small, abnormal canines. “Keith..what happened to you. “I don’t really know right now.”, he put his hands on the ceiling above him and started pushing. He pushed it until he was completely standing, then he pushed it forwards and and over so Shiro could help the other Paladins out. “Im...going to get Pidge. You all get to the lions.”, Keith stated. This was all he could get out before he started running in the direction of the security room, dropping the ceiling.

He saw Pidge laying on the ground, half concious. He picked her up, bridal style, and started carrying her out. He got outside the base finally, where the other paladins were waiting, most likely to see if Pidge was ok. The bright lights of the outdoor sunlight hurt Keith’s eyes. He had to squint on his way to the lions.

When he got there, he handed Pidge to Shiro. Keith stood and looked at everyone. Pidge regained conciousness and Shiro helped her stand. “Thanks Keith.”, she thanked him. “Im sorry.”, Keith managed to get out. He leaned his head towards the ground, clenching his fists. “I should have told you guys.”, he looked ashamed. It was hard for Lance to take him seriously. With those big fluffy ears of his. Shiro gave him a hug, soon they were all in on it too. Keith let a single tear escape, that he could no longer hold back. “Thanks...guys.”, he choked out as he started crying full on.

*B~O~N~U~S*

The next morning. Keith came to breakfast, fully “human” looking. The whole crew looked dumbfounded. “What?”, Keith asked, as he sat down to eat his space ‘cereal’. “But yesterday, you were all, purple, and fluffy and-”, Keith cut Hunk off. “-Galra? Chill. I can force it away if I concentrate hard enough.”, he said. Everyone had already noticed that Keith seemed more relaxed and open than usual. He opened his mouth to take a bite of ‘cereal’. Shiro remembered his distinctly long abnormal canines from the day before. He chuckled. “Sure you can.” he said. “What? Whats so funny!?”, Keith asked.

( This isn’t one of my better fics but I kinda lost motivation after like 30 minutes so eh ) ( I’ll do better lol I promise )

A Hungarian dog training group called Népszigeti Kutyaiskola use a variation of model-rival training which they describe as the Mirror Method. The mirror method philosophy is that dogs instinctively learn by following the example of others in their social sphere. Core to the program is including the dog in all aspects of the owner’s life and positive reinforcement of copying behaviors.

Make sure you know as much as possible about how your new dog has been trained before. This is important, as it is your way to know what to expect. For example, if they were trained on a potty pad, you can’t expect your new dog to suddenly start going out to pee. If you don’t know about their history, try crate training, but be patient.

Learning Comments Our Global History Avoid playing exciting games in the garden before your puppy has toileted, as this is likely to distract them from the main purpose of going outside. If they want to come back inside straight away, or look confused, patiently walk up and down slowly to encourage them to move about and sniff the ground. Stay outside with your puppy until they have done their business at which point you can give gentle praise. Avoid leaving your puppy outside in the hope that they will eventually go to the toilet, as most puppies will not want to be left alone and will instead concentrate on getting back to you, rather than learning to go to the toilet outside. You might also miss the opportunity to praise your puppy if they do go, or if they don’t go, they may then be ‘caught short’ once back in the house! It’s hardly surprising many people have barking problems with their dogs, since most dogs have no idea whether barking is something good or bad.

Is It Fine to Do Online Payment Transfer for Impounded Car Insurance to a Company ?

Hi there, I am trying to put a question here for the yahoo community in a bit detail to give a clear picture of situation and try to get some useful information regarding it. What happened is my car got stopped over by police and towed away by their recovery van. Now i am getting an impounded car insurance to get it back ( Long story short , the car i was driving was without insurance as i had not received letter of my insurance cancellation and i was under the impression that i had insurance. By the way i had paid them in full for one year in advance and it was not a monthly direct debit payment ) I have searched and able to get a quote from two well know car insurance companies ( One of them is Impoundedcarinsurance.com and other is INSURENCE CHOICE ) and both companies are asking for DIRECT TRANSFER OF MONEY IN THEIR BANK ACCOUNT as they don't accept Credit Cards and Debit cards for the payment of temporary insurance. Today i and yesterday, i spent my whole days to contact these companies and get information for method of payment. I have a few points here to ask and i am sure your valuable information will guide me to make a decision to buy the insurance for my impounded car. ->First of all, I called my previous company which cancelled my insurance to persuade them for a temporary insurance to get my IMPOUNDED CAR BACK, The customer assistant simply stated that none of their policies can be used to get an impounded car back from compound. So they don't provide temporary cover for impounded cars at all. -> The second and more important thing is as i stated before, i had called a couple of companies yesterday for impounded car insurance ( In-fact i googled Impounded car insurance in Uk on google and it gave the names of main companies on FIRST PAGE OF GOOGLE ). If you would ever google Impounded Car Insurance , you would see one of them is INSURANCE CHOICE and they provide insurance for impounded car. -> And with that i called Insurance Choice today and spoke to the person who gave me the insurance quote yesterday for my impounded car and told me the method of payment as of Online Transfer to their account (Yesterday he told me that they don't take credit or debit card payment as mostly people take the insurance and get their car out of compound with the help of the insurance certificate and later on cancel the insurance giving the reason of unauthorized payment and hence claim the insurance money back, so that's why they do online transfer only). Today i was FRANK AND STRAIGHT TO HIM and told him about my question asked on different online forums and all the answers and suggestions which were discussed with me. I told him simply that it looked too suspicious to pay them by online transfer and hence i feared of losing my money and it can be a spam !!! -> Well the person there maintained and cleared his position by stating that He was going to give their company's sort code and Account number and it can be verified in the bank that what company the money is going to if i do online transfer ! Hence i had a record of payment to a CERTAIN COMPANY (Insurance Choice) for impounded car insurance and its all safe. So please advise in light of above mentioned discussion/inquiries that is it safe to deal with this company and do a payment transfer directly into their account. I have also mentioned this company's name as its on google for the authentication and i called on 01926 454 348 number which is on their page at http://www.insurance-choice.net/ppc/convicted/impound_insurance.php?gclid=CKHu1KKN2bwCFZShtAodWioATQ Please advise as this time is one of the difficult times of life ! Many Thanks.""

Car accident and they got old insurance.?

I got in a car accident last November and they tried to hit me with 6 duis with no evidence. We got the FDLC results 6 MONTHS LATER, and it came up with nothing. I have no idea what they had to charge me with 6 DUIs, however... It was reduced to reckless driving. Anyways, when I got in the accident, I left in an ambulance. The police gave out the wrong car insurance (I had just got statefarm the day before.) They gave like esurance to everyone, which was the WRONG insurance. So, I ended up having to tell the hospitals etc that they gave out the wrong insurance. Then I got a call from one of the people I hit's insurance, and they queried about what insurance I had (They said the policy they were given expired in like 08.)... Part of the deal of reckless driving is that I pay restitution. My lawyer is unaware that the police gave out the wrong insurance, but he told me that there should be like nothing (insurance should cover all of it.) I just got a letter in the mail yesterday saying that I owe 2500 to some person. Is it possible that he was given the wrong insurance as well, thus me getting charged for this?""

He uses it 5 days a week for work anyway ill probably only be using it during the weekends, I'm only really going on his so I can get a couple of years on my license and when it comes to it my insurance won't be a fortune, I'm 25 just now, worked out if I want to have my own insurance it with a small 1L engine it would cost me 1547 a year, not gonna happen, so I'm going to go onto my fathers insurance as 2nd driver to his car.

Insurance to go down when you add a 2nd named driver who would only have passed his test?? This is fully comprehensive cover. But if I wanted to driver my own car a small 1L engine it would be roughly 129 a month. Seems like it doesn't add up. Go figure lol Got the quotes from go compare and confused.com.

Quentin Tarantinos History of Disturbing Behavior Toward His Actresses

For Quentin Tarantino, a man whose taste for portraying violence against women has often been mistaken for feminist filmmaking, the line between fiction and reality is equally blurred.

As a writer and director, Tarantino is famous for pushing his female heroines towards acts of brutal violence; but more often than not, Tarantinos women find themselves on the receiving end of the directors graphic imaginationraped, beaten, killed, whipped and branded.

Like so many (male) directors before him, Tarantinos work has relied on the rape-revenge fantasyan outdated trope that throws in a sexual-assault backstory instead of doing the work of female character development. As a Mic article, Kill Bill and Our Troubled Relationship with Rape Revenge Movies elaborated, While sexual assault is worthy of in depth exploration on screen, these rape and revenge films do not depict the reality of how these assaults can affect women. Rather, they look to fetishize the act and use it as motivation for unabashed gore and violence. What should be empowering films featuring women rising out of past trauma to exact justice are often instead turned into a form of torture porn.

And yet, Tarantino has often been called a feministusually by other men. Hes the auteur of choice for cinephiles who like their directors male and their feminist films full of sexualized violence and lingering feet footage. Harvey Weinstein himself called Tarantino the most pro-woman ever, continuing, [Look at] Uma Thurman [in Kill Bill], Pam Grier [in Jackie Brown], Melanie Laurent and Diane Kruger [in Inglourious Basterds].

Since Weinstein, who stands accused of sexual assault by more than 90 women, asked, maybe it is time to revisit those iconic Tarantino heroinesand take the director to task not just for the female characters hes created, but the real-life women he mistreated in the process.

In recent years, Tarantinos legacy has come under fire by increasingly skeptical critics. In 2015, The New York Times A.O. Scott called 2015s The Hateful Eight an orgy of elaborately justified misogyny. And new allegations by his former muse, Uma Thurman, threaten to unmask Tarantino as little more than what his films would suggest: a man who is altogether too interested in torturing women.

I have to say it was very strange being strangled by the director.

Diane Kruger on Quentin Tarantino

Over the weekend, Thurman accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual assault in The New York Times.

In a series of painful, shocking anecdotes, the actress also revealed that Tarantino pressured her into a potentially life-threatening scene while filming Kill Bill. Thurman told the Times that this incident occurred after she had disclosed to Tarantino that Weinstein, who produced Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction, had previously assaulted her.

Thurman had expressed that she wanted a stunt person to do the dangerous-seeming scene, which involved operating a wobbly car that she described as a death trap. But Tarantino was insistent. He was furious because Id cost them a lot of time. But I was scared. He said: I promise you the car is fine. Its a straight piece of road, Thurman recalled. Hit 40 miles per hour or your hair wont blow the right way and Ill make you do it again. She added, The seat wasnt screwed down properly. It was a sand road and it was not a straight road.

Newly-released footage shows the subsequent crash, which Thurman says resulted in a concussion and knee damage. She described the accident to the Times, remembering, The steering wheel was at my belly and my legs were jammed under me. I felt this searing pain and thought, Oh my God, Im never going to walk againWhen I came back from the hospital in a neck brace with my knees damaged and a large massive egg on my head and a concussion, I wanted to see the car and I was very upset. Quentin and I had an enormous fight, and I accused him of trying to kill me. And he was very angry at that, I guess understandably, because he didnt feel he had tried to kill me.

Thurman also told The New York Times that Tarantino withheld the crash footage from her for years, saying, Quentin finally atoned by giving it to me after 15 years, right? She added, Not that it matters now, with my permanently damaged neck and my screwed-up knees.

A recent Sydney Morning Herald article fleshed out the connection between the directors oeuvre and the new accusations: No matter how Tarantino might defend his blood-spattered back catalogue as pro-woman or true cinematic equality, violence in the QT pantheon so often seems to be, with a few exceptions, something done by men to womenTarantino loves to put his female characters through hell. We know now, from Thurmans account of his on-set behaviour, that he also likes to do the same to at least one of his actresses in the name of authenticity in performance.

youtube

In the past, Tarantino has admitted that he knew enough to do more than I did about Harvey Weinstein. He told The New York Times that, There was more to it than just the normal rumors, the normal gossip. It wasnt secondhand. I knew he did a couple of these things.I wish I had taken responsibility for what I heard. If I had done the work I should have done then, I would have had to not work with him. Tarantino said that his ex-girlfriend, Mira Sorvino, had told him about Weinsteins unwelcome advances and unwanted touching, and that he also knew about Rose McGowans settlement with the producer. Weinstein distributed his directorial debut Reservoir Dogs in 1992, and has served as a producer on every Tarantino project since.

In the New York Times story, Thurman briefly summarized other abuses she suffered on the set of Kill Bill, with the Times reporting that, Tarantino had done the honors with some of the sadistic flourishes himself, spitting in her face in the scene where Michael Madsen is seen on screen doing it and choking her with a chain in the scene where a teenager named Gogo is on screen doing it.

In a subsequentDeadlineinterview, Tarantino called Thurmans car crash one of the biggest regrets of his life. He told Deadline that the good things I did are in the Maureen Dowd article, butcomplained that, they are de-emphasized to not make any impression. Thesegood thingsseem to include making Weinstein apologize to Thurman for assaulting her, and the herculean task of going to a storage facility to find the tapes of Thurmans car crash, which she told theTimesshes been trying to get for years. Tarantino expressed zero regret for strangling and spitting on his heroine, essentially bragging to Deadline about the skill with which he spat on Thurman for aKill Billscene. So the idea is, Im doing it, Im taking responsibility, Tarantino explained. Also, Im the director, so I can kind of art direct this spit. I know where I want it to land.

Actress Jessica Chastain commented on this perverse directorial dynamic in a series of tweets on Saturday, writing, I keep imagining Tarantino spitting in Umas face and strangling her with a chain for KILL BILL. How many images of women in media do we celebrate that showcase abuse? When did this become normalized entertainment? When violence against women is used as a plot device to make the characters stronger then we have a problem. It is not empowering to be beaten and raped, yet so many films make it their pheonix [sp] moment for women. We dont need abuse in order to be powerful. We already are.

Chastain concluded, Directors inserting themselves into a scene depicting abuse is crossing a boundary. How can an actor feel safe when your director is strangling you? Judd Apatow also reacted to the allegations on Twitter, writing, The number one job a producer and director has on a set is to make sure that everyone is safe. That can mean safe from reckless stunt preparation or safe from predatory producers physically attacking them. There is no excuse for not protecting your cast and crew.

Thurman isnt the only woman who has suffered from Tarantinos boundary-crossing.

Diane Kruger, another actress whose Tarantino role Weinstein pointed to as one of the directors feminist credentials, told Parade about her unique death scene in Inglourious Basterds: I get strangled, which was especially weird because you feel it when someone is choking you, so it was an interesting day at the office. The funny part is that Quentins hands are in the close-up. I wont give away the name of the actor who kills me, but Quentin said, Hes not going to do it right, itll either be too much or too little. I know exactly what I need and I think I should just do it. I have to say it was very strange being strangled by the director.

youtube

In an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, Tarantino recalled asking Kruger if she would let [him] strangle her: And so I just said to her, what I want to do is, Im going to be the hands, and what Im going to do is, Im going to just strangle you. Im going to cut off your air for just a little bit of time, were going to see the reaction in your face, and then well cut. He bragged, It was real. It looked really good, explaining that, When somebody is actually being strangled there is a thing that happens to their face, they turn a certain color, and their veins pop out and stuff. In other films, he complained, It always just seems fake.

In an interview promoting 2007s Grindhouse, Fergie recalled being bitten by the director during one rehearsal. She said, He came to the set and ran lines with me. In one scene Quentin got really into the character and bit me. My manager has it on his camera. Im not going to sue him or anything, but I wanted documentation. It was crazy cool.

Rose McGowan, who also starred in Grindhouse, wrote in her new memoir Brave that, The first time I met Tarantino, and for years after, every time hed see me, he said, Rose! I have your movie Jawbreaker on laser disc! I cant tell you how many times I used the shot where youre painting your toes!' She continued, That means Tarantino paid extra money to jerk off to my young feet and told me about it loudly, over and over, for years, in front of numerous people.

Additionally, according to The Telegraph, McGowan writes that for all the praise Tarantino receives for depicting strong female characters in his films, he also beats the s— out of them for his enjoyment.

Thurman, who has spent years fighting for her video evidence, and even more years staying silent, has some of the strongest insight into the cult of Tarantinothe fictional women he brings to life and the real ones he endangers. Personally, it has taken me 47 years to stop calling people who are mean to you in love with you, she told the Times. It took a long time because I think that as little girls we are conditioned to believe that cruelty and love somehow have a connection and that is like the sort of era that we need to evolve out of.

Tarantino is currently on the hunt for an authentic Polish thespian to play the part of Roman Polanski in his upcoming film, which will reportedly take on the 1969 Manson Family murder of Sharon Tate.

This piece has been updated to include comments from a Deadline interview with Tarantino published late Monday.

Stalker

Amy sat alone in her new home. A 2 bedroom apartment in San Francisco. A rather modest apartment for someone who had just retired at the age of 30 with more than enough money in the bank to see her through life with enough to leave to her kids, so that they'd never have to work in their lives, not that Amy had any kids, work had always come first. Amy had started making mobile apps when she was 24 years old. Mainly apps that let people buy and sell things, but also games, including the one that made her fortune. Amy sipped her coffee that sat on the end table

"Shit" she thought "Still too hot"

She walked into the kitchen to grab some milk when she noticed a brown envelope hanging out of her letterbox

"That's odd" she thought as she walked over to retrieve it.

She pulled the letter free and turned it over, it just had one word on the front in scribbled handwriting

"Open"

As Amy walked back over to the sofa there was a knock on the door that made her let out a short, high pitched scream. She walked over to the door slowly and looked through the peephole, on the other side stood her friend Hannah who was looking back at her holding up a bottle of wine, Amy sighed and let her friend in

"What's the matter? Hannah asked

"You look like you've seen a ghost"

"Nothing" replied Amy hiding the envelope behind her back

"Long days that's all"

"Long?" Replied Hannah laughing

"You're retired for gods sake"

They both laughed and Amy led them into the living room where Amy sat on the sofa, pushing the brown envelope under the sofa cushion.

They sat, talked and drank wine for hours until Hannah said

"I guess I should get going, my cabs waiting outside"

They hugged and said goodbye. Amy locked the door and drew the chain across before walking back over to the sofa and retrieving the envelope. She sat down and opened the envelope. There was only one picture inside. A picture of her sitting in her car at the traffic lights. Taken from an angle that could only have been taken from the car next to her. She turned it over to find more scrawled handwriting.

"Boo!"

Amy sat on the sofa, it didn't really scare her so much as confuse her. "Why would someone do that? Could it be someone I know playing a prank?" Either way she wasn't taking any chances. She made sure that the doors and windows were all bolted shut and went to bed.

The next day seemed pretty normal, Amy woke up, showered and got dressed. She walked passed the envelope on the coffee table and then stopped. She turned around and looked at it.

"That's not where I left you" she thought walking slowly back over to the table.

She was right. The envelope had been turned over from being face down so the word "Open" could be seen again. She opened the envelope to find a picture. But not the same picture as before. It was a picture of her sleeping, she knew instantly that it was from the night before because she was wearing pyjamas that were only bought that day.

Amy felt sick, she ran around the apartment making sure the windows were still locked and threw the curtains closed. The front door. She ran to the door. Locked.

"So how...." Amy thought her mind trailing away.

She picked up the phone and called the police and within 20 minutes there was a knock at the door. Amy shouted

"Who's there?"

"Police" came the reply

Amy walked over to the door and looked through the peephole, two patrol officers stood at the door with stern expressions on their faces. She opened the door and invited them in.

They sat and talked for what seemed like an age. Amy showed them the pictures and they took notes in their little black notepads. After only twenty minutes the officers stood up and said they'd be in touch if they had any further questions.

Amy sat on the sofa and sobbed. She cried for only a minute before composing herself.

She had stuff to do.

Amy drove herself to the nearest hardware store and bought more locks for her doors and windows enough for all windows and doors in her apartment. She rushed home to start fitting them. As she approached her door she sensed something was off, she walked slowly to her front door and pushed, closed, she tried the handle which opened.

"Im sure I locked it" she said to herself.

She opened the door quickly and with a thump. She shouted in

"If there's anyone in there I've called the police" Hoping that whoever was in there would come running out.

After a few minutes she poked her head around the door. Amy then decided to go in, she walked gingerly through the hall and into the living room.

"Just how I left it" she thought

She then moved to the bedroom. She opened the door and immediately starting crying. On her bed was another brown envelope.

After she had gotten herself together she reached for the envelope, her hands shaking with fear.

She opened the envelope, this time no picture but a key. A key with a tag on it.

"KeepSafe Storage No.563".

Confused Amy set down the key and made sure nothing else was in the envelope. She then googled the storage facility and discovered it was only an hours drive from her home.

Amy got into her car and started to drive. After an hour she found the storage facility and parked her car. When she walked into the lobby there was no one there, so she made her own way and found the locker she was looking for. Number 563. Amy took a deep breath and readied herself for what was on the other side. She put the key into the lock and turned. It popped open with a clunk and fell to the ground and the shutter rolled up.

The room was dark and smelled musty, she look around and found a light switch. She flicked it and the light came to live with a buzz. The storage unit was empty apart from a small wooden box in the middle of the floor as if to say open me. She flipped open the latch and opened the box. Inside was a folded sheet of paper. Amy unfolded it and read out-loud.

"Boo"

Before she had even finished saying the word her whole world went black.

Amy awoke several hours later, the back of her head was throbbing and sticky.

"Blood" she thought

She tried to move but realised the was tied to a chair. She tried to scream, but she was gagged. She wasn't blindfolded, she knew this because she could see light under the door of a shutter. Amy's eyes teared up as a million and one thoughts ran through her head. But this time, this time she wasn't going to cry, this time she'd get angry. Rocking the chair back and forth trying to free her arms she managed to topple the chair

"Fuck" she mumbled.

Amy lay there for ten minutes before she heard the unmistakable sound of a key being put into a lock. She tried again to scream but the gag muffled her strained attempts. The shutter flew up, the light blinding Amy, she could make out only a silhouette of a man standing in the doorway, he stepped inside and turned to close the shutter. Darkness befell the room again before a light was flicked on.

The lights flooded the room, Amy was blinded, but as her eyes began to adjust she started to see things clearly. She glanced around the room from her position on the floor, pictures, hundreds, maybe thousands of pictures, she screamed again and tried to wrestle herself free but was hoisted back up into a seated position by the man. He stood behind her and asked in a low, forceful voice

"If I remove this will you scream?"

"No" Amy tried to mumble

The man removed the gag, as soon as he did Amy screamed at the top of her lungs

"Help me!"

Instantly the man hit her with his open palm from his position behind her and put his hand over her mouth. She could taste the saltiness of his sweat which made her wretch.

"Don't scream" the man said again taking his hand away

Amy didn't scream this time, looking around her she started to see what the pictures were. It was her. Thousands of pictures of her lined every available space on the walls. Pictures from her social media, pictures of her from her magazine spreads but then she noticed them. Pictures of her going about daily life, shopping hanging out with friends. With Hannah, with her parents. All aspects of her life photographed without her knowing. A stalker.

"Who are you?" she asked sternly

"A fan" replied the man walking from behind her into view.

The mans face came into view and he said crouched down in front of the chair giving Amy a first look at his face. He was handsome. Amy studied his face, she had never seen him before. He couldn't have been much older than Amy herself. He had baby blue eyes and neatly trimmed hair, a few weeks worth a facial growth and very chiselled features. He was about 6 feet tall and rather muscular which Amy feel even more afraid. She couldn't match him physically.

"I just wanted to meet you" said the man after sometime.

"I know everything about you. Where you were born, what schools you went to, who you've dated, where you go daily, where you go weekly, I know where you worked, who your colleges are, I know everything" he then turned to Amy and said

"Look around you, what you see here is years worth of research"

Amy looked around and saw pictures of her dating back at least five years.

"Why are you doing this" Amy asked with venom in her voice. She was trying to be intimidating even though she was terrified

"You'll find out soon enough" said the man as he turned towards Amy and pulled the gag back into her mouth.

He turned from her and walked to the shutter. Throwing it open, turning the light off and leaving. The click of the lock being closed made Amy jump. She was alone. Again.

In the dark Amy decided that she was going to escape. She used all of her limited strength to try and free herself. She was so dehydrated that she struggled to even move, but she managed reach her arm with her mouth and start biting at the bindings. She tried in vain to break the zip ties biding her hands to the flimsy wooden chair. Suddenly she had an idea, all she had to do was free her legs. She wriggled and writhed her legs in all directions and with one massive surge of effort, broke the first zip tie. Using her free foot she managed to wriggle the other leg free. Once both of her legs were free she stood herself up. The plan was to jump up into the air and land on the back legs of the wooden chair, hopefully smashing the whole thing. With one mighty leap she jumped up leant back and with a loud crash, the chair broke apart, one hand was free but still had the arm of the chair attached but the other was still attached to the chairs arm and seat. Using her free arm she managed to break the other arm free of the seat. Once both arms were free she pulled the arm pieces free and tossed them to one side. She was free. Amy found the light switch and flicked it on. The only other thing in the room as a fire extinguisher, standard for all storage lockers. She looked at the label, water. Not ideal. Amy hatched a plan to wait by the side of the shutter and hit the man over the head when he came back. Shouting for help would yield little to no results in a storage compound this big, no doubt she'd be far away from anyone. So she waited. And waited. And waited until finally, the sound of a key and a lock meeting. Then there was a click and the deafening sound of a shutter being thrown open

"Hey what the fu---" the mans sentence was cut off short by Amy's overhead swing from the fire extinguisher.

The man slumped forward onto the ground. Unconscious. In a blind panic Amy ran from the unit into the maze of storage lockers.

"Great" she thought, "No sign posts".

She started running wildly through the dense maze of identical metal shutters until she was stopped dead in her tracks by a blood curdling scream

"AMY! IM COMING FOR YOU!"

She took off running again rounding corner after corner trying to escape. Amy turned another corner and skidded to a halt, at the end of the long corridor he stood there, blood pouring from a wound in the side of his head, and a knife in his hand. Amy turned around and bolted the other way, the man gave chase. Corner after corner, shutter after shutter she ran, colliding with the cold metal doors after every turn, she could hear him getting closer.

"He must know this place like the back of his hand" she thought, standing still for a moment to catch her breath which was promptly knocked out of her by a forceful shove that hit her in the back.

She fell to the floor and the man got on top of her. He brought the knife down with lightning speed at Amy's face, she moved just in time for the knife to slice a chunk out of her ear, screaming she clawed at his face with her nails causing him to let up just for a moment. Long enough for Amy's knee to come crashing into his balls and send him rolling off to one side, dropping the knife that went skidding away. Both on the floor they clawed and scratched at each other while crawling towards the knife. Amy moved quicker. Kicking down with her heel she caught the man in the nose which exploded with blood, the man screamed and grabbed his nose giving Amy enough time to get to the knife. She grabbed it and rolled over onto her back, the man jumped on top of her and let out a low grunt, he just stared at her, blankly,

Amy screamed "Just do it already" but the man didn't reply instead a small trickle of blood escaped his lips and he slumped forward onto her body.

She realised what had happened. He had landed on the knife. She pushed him off her, stoop up and looked around and there in the distance was a small sign on the ceiling that read

"Exit this way"

This is the first story I’ve ever written, hopefully my writing will get better as time goes on
