I am DYING for a part 6 of the Actress AU pls 🙏🏼

Part 14 is here: https://blackacre13.tumblr.com/post/700763994533904384/please-could-you-write-more-of-the-actress-au-i

Here's Part 15:

“I—I don’t want to do this wrong,” Debbie admitted almost shyly. She ran her fingers over Lou’s thighs nervously, smiling a bit as she watched Lou’s hips roll in response at the gentle touch.

“Just feel it out,” Lou murmured with a gentle smile. She took Debbie’s hand in hers, guiding her hand between her legs. “You’ll know what feels right. What feels good to you? What would you want?”

“Teach me,” Debbie whispered.

“Oh god,” Debbie groaned, shielding her eyes with her hands. “Oh Fuck. I can’t. I can’t.”

“Oh come on,” Lou grinned. “This is one of my absolute favorites.”

“You’re a liar,” Debbie shrieked, throwing the comforter over her head. “Turn that shit off. I can’t stand seeing my face.”

“Then don’t watch,” Lou shrugged, turning up the volume on the television that had previously been at an imperceptible level as a failsafe for background noise to muffle the sounds the two of them had been making. Debbie couldn’t have named whatever television shows or movies had been playing during the night if her life had depended on it. The only thing she could remember was Lou. Every touch. Every kiss. Every moan. And the taste of her…

“Hey,” Lou chuckled, tickling at Debbie’s thigh. “Teasing you isn’t any fun if you’re not going to get all cute and whiny and try to get me to stop.”

“Sorry,” Debbie blushed, peeking out from the comforter. “I was just—“

“Having gay sex flashbacks?” Lou grinned, raising an eyebrow. “Get used to it, Ocean. It’s a common side effect of life-changing sex, I’m afraid. Especially with me.”

Debbie let out a soft chuckle, but Lou could see her let out a small wince as she glanced at the screen and caught a snippet of herself running through a forest in a tank top and skinny jeans.

Lou pursed her lips, watching her for a moment, before she powered off the television with the remote.

“Would you believe they wouldn’t let me wear a bra for that scene?” The brunette sighed.

“Well, that script wasn’t going to sell itself,” Lou smirked. “Had to give the audience something to pine over.”

“And I don’t even have to tell you about the chafing that comes from running around in sweaty denim. I mean, who would even dress that way trying to track down a criminal? I have no idea how you’re always walking around in that thick, hot leather.”

“Because it does this to you,” Lou whispered, her voice dropping slightly as she ran her fingers between Debbie’s legs, the brunette groaning at the touch as her stomach swooped. “See, America might get to see you running through the woods in a tank top and get a two second glimpse of that braless bounce, but me? Fuck. To think that I get to have you all to myself, in my bed, and make love to you until you see stars and can’t even remember your own name? Worth its weight in gold, Ocean.”

“You’re going to make love to me all day?” Debbie giggled, trying to hide her blush.

“Did you have other plans?” The blonde grinned. “Because I know I had several orgasms in mind and all of them require your participation.”

“Breakfast first?”

“Sure,” Lou nodded, tossing the comforter towards the end of the bed as she crawled between Debbie’s thighs, lowering her head. Her nose brushed against Debbie’s clit as the brunette giggled, trying to close her thighs together as Lou pushed her legs apart, biting at the inside of her thigh.

“Real breakfast,” Debbie whispered.

“After I eat you,” Lou murmured. “Promise.”

thinking about a hobbit/lotr x reader Ocean’s 8 AU where they try to steal a certain gem maybe from Erebor, not the arkenstone but something else

Tauriel, Dis, Fem! Reader, Sigrid, Arwen, Eowyn, the wife of Thranduil (who yes, is brought back to life in this AU bc she has so much good and open potential for interpretation. I have character on her and she is hilarious)

oh and the 8th member who joins last minute? ofc the one character who is there in both films

and and the person who isn't really an antagonist but someone they have to sneak past: the only other person in both films

The Thirsty Dead (1974)

My rating: 4/10

Whoever came up with all those bogus "The Lord of the Rings movies have way too many walking scenes" jokes clearly never saw this.

"it’s okay to hurt and breakdown. you don’t have to be strong all the time.” | @musichealed

There is so much about her and her past that Matt doesn't know. It's become increasingly more apparent and has now hit a bit of a crescendo for her as she tries to slow her breathing.

It's one of those days, the ones Lou dreads, ones where the darkness she stamps down daily takes hold of her and seemingly won't ease on its death grip. She's usually alone for them, all alone, squirreled away in her apartment, not leaving until she can breathe again, but Matt... Poor Matt. He's there, witnessing Lou battle with herself. She never shared any of this, so of course he doesn't know, but he's there and trying and all she wants is to disappear.

You don't have to be strong all the time. Oh how she wishes she believed that. It's the antithesis of what Stanley Wolfe drilled ( and beat ) into her. She can't shake the opposite notion despite her best efforts. The moment she begins to shed those thoughts, Lou can hear her father's voice tell her that she's weak, that she's a burden, that she'll never survive on her own because of it all.

Lou closes her eyes and wills the wave of sadness back, at least for the moment.

"Thanks," she finally speaks, lids flitting open, a forced smile bringing a slight curve to her lips. "But I'm okay. Really."

( OOF, MAN. | accepting! )

#musichealed #( ic. / && answered. )#( verse. / && with all i don't say with all i don't do. )#( hesitation's always mine. / && lou and matt becker. )#( abuse tw )#( don't mind me just cha-cha ing off to go have a good cry )

You release an album after a lengthy pause and something happens to your reputation as well – you are somehow no longer an underdog waiting for your big break. However, the situation remains similar to the latter circumstance, since no one can really tell, if anyone missed you. Of course, what I mentioned was probably the last thing on the mind of Steely Dan, they rarely seemed to be the type of group that would care about the reception of their work. Two Against Nature, their comeback, doesn't really move from their usual tricks, yet they do them with a certain ease that wasn't present in their early platters. I am not shocked they followed up that one with another, though I am saddened they are no longer a duo thanks to Becker's death.

Too good at goodbyes

Lou Miller x Fem! Reader

Warnings: Angst, unsure love

story type: one shot

This one was a rush one. My brain just whipped this up, and I couldn't stop writing it. Also, I don't know what direction this was actually going, so I hope it turned out fine.

You must think that I'm stupid You must think that I'm a fool You must think that I'm new to this But I have seen this all before

You aren't stupid. You aren't a fool, and this is definitely not new to you.

You watch Lou leave your side when she finds out about the revenge Debbie is plotting towards her ex-lover, Becker.

You watch them argue. You watch Lou being frustrated and unsure about the revenge plot. You watch your lover – actually more on pursuer be worried about her crush or according to her ex-crush – this right here is the main reason why you haven't accepted her being your girlfriend.

I'm never gonna let you close to me Even though you mean the most to me 'Cause every time I open up, it hurts So, I'm never gonna get too close to you Even when I mean the most to you In case you go and leave me in the dirt

"Hey, Y/N. Are you okay?" Lou playfully shoved your shoulders as she sits beside you. She noticed how gloomy you looked and wanted to cheer you up. "Yeah. I'm just tired. I'll go to bed. Goodnight, Lou." You gave her a weak smile and walked off towards your room. Her gaze just follows your movements.

"Why don't you talk to her about it, Y/N?" Tammy comforted you as she caught you silently sobbing. "I don't know what to say, Tam. I know they are partner in crime, and I have no right to be jealous because I haven't accepted her yet, and I can't accept her because of how she is now. I know I sound selfish, but I have been hurt before, and I don't want to go through all that again." You cry more.

But every time you hurt me, the less that I cry And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry And every time you walk out, the less I love you Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad, but it's true

"Could you stop avoiding me?!" Lou snatched your arm to make you stop walking. You stopped walking but didn't face her. "How many times do I have to tell you? Debbie is my best friend and I'm worried about her." She let your arm go. "Best friends? I'm 100% sure best friends don't look at each other like how you look at her, Lou. I'm not an idiot. I know how people look in love." You face her this time.

"You know what? Believe what you want to believe. Talk to me when you can trust my words." Lou said before leaving you standing in the hallway. "Action speaks louder, Lou." You whisper, breaking your heart.

I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes) I'm way too good at goodbyes (I'm way too good at goodbyes)

They got all the jewelry and successfully framed Becker. They are all gathered in the loft, drinking champagne and talking about the mission. When Tammy pointed out you're missing. Lou furrowed her eyebrows and looked for you around the loft. Finally, she had the brains to check your room.

It was empty. All of your belongings were gone. There was only a note on your bed.

Dear Lou,

Congratulations to the successful mission. I want you to know that I love you and I'm setting you free. Even though we weren't officially together. You mean so much to me, and it pains me to leave you, but you deserve someone better. Don't worry. I'm not taking this to heart as I'm already used to it.

I'm sorry that I'm too good at goodbyes.

Goodbye Lou.

Y/N.

That's when Lou realized she should have paid more attention to you. Now you are gone.

I'm greedy with the asks... but more defendant/ lawyer au please???

Part 8 is here; Here's Part 9:

There was silence between them for a moment before Tammy snatched back the cookie container, Debbie’s finger almost caught in the lid.

“I like her for you,” Tammy finally decided, carefully sealing the lid before tucking it into her oversized purse, her eyes finding Debbie’s once more. “There’s something there.”

“I think so too,” the brunette smiled, nodding her head slowly. “Aren’t you supposed to tell me not to shit where I eat though?”

“You already did, babe,” Tammy exhaled, looking around the small room. “And it landed you here. I think all bets are off now. And Lou seems like the good deal. Let’s just see if she can break you out first.”

“I’ve got faith in her,” Debbie whispered, looking at the door, missing Lou’s cocky grin and the way she watched Debbie’s eyes light up at her coffee and treat surprises. “I trust her.”

“Debbie Ocean trusting someone?” Tammy raised an eyebrow. “And they don’t think prison changes people.”

“You thought you could handle a job like this on your own, sweetheart?” He laughed, snipping off the butt of his cigar before he lit it, taking in a deep pull of it before he blew out, leaning against the railing. “At least you keep me laughing, Deb. And we know you’ve got that body going for you.”

Take the cigar, Debbie thought. Take the cigar out of his stupid ass mouth and hold it against his damn cheek. Teach him a lesson. You know he’s done it to you enough times. She thought of the foundation she’d pocketed at Saks the other day, almost getting caught because she’d taken an extra beat to choose a color, not realizing that the shade she needed for her arms and legs was a different shade than her face. But she’d had to cover the burns to wear the dress Claude wanted her to wear for the job.

She didn’t know if the burn, singeing her skin, leaving the smell of burnt rubber lingering in the air was better or worse than the fear that had trickled through her veins when he’d held that butcher knife to her neck, the tip of the blade almost pressing into her. She’d been surprised that there was no single drop of blood on it, making a perfect little bubble by the time he’d pulled it away.

“There is that,” Debbie agreed, trying not to spit at him. “Lucky for me, I don’t have to worry about that. Working alone is a thing of the past. I’m so lucky to have you. Handsome.” She added, lying through her teeth.

She draped her arms around his shoulders, resting her head against one of them. It would be so easy to move her hands to his neck and twist his head just so, getting to hear that satisfying snap, and knowing his eyes would blow wide and he would fall to the concrete of the patio.

Instead, she kissed his shoulder, if only to avoid the stubble around his lips.

A braver Debbie would’ve convinced him to shave. A braver Debbie would have stood up to him and told him not to talk about her like an object. A braver Debbie would have gotten the Fuck out of this situation that was quickly spiraling into the beginning of the end.

She used to run shit. Own New York. Be a name.

She had a reputation and an apartment and her pick of any jobs she wanted. And she sure as hell would have never let a man walk all over her. But the way this was going, she was too terrified to be the brave version of Debbie and she let herself shrink back further and further and further until she was just a mere shadow of herself. And it was this sort of Debbie who could very easily get stabbed in the back. She needed to find a way to get out. And it had to be fast.

Suddenly things were jumping around and they were sitting in an elegant restaurant, Claude holding her hand across the table. That was new. That was odd. It took her longer than she cared to admit that there was an odd prickling against her skin that felt warm and nice at the start but quickly felt like her skin was being licked with flames. And it’s because it almost was. He was holding her hand so that her wrist was over the candle on the table.

“Claude,” she smiled sheepishly, gesturing to the candle the best she could. “C, my wrist. It’s—it’s kind of hot.”

“I know,” he hissed, gripping her wrist even tighter, the skin turning white as he cut off the circulation. “It’s going to stay here while I tell you what you’re going to do for me and you’re going to smile all pretty and act like I am telling you what a wonderful woman you are and how much I love you. But in reality, you’re going to listen. You’re going to do this job for me. And I’m going to let you in on a little secret about this art that we’ve been dealing these past few weeks. And if you try to get smart. Or tough. Or call your stupid best friend or your conniving brother and his little firecrotch girlfriend, then we’re going to have a real problem, Deborah. So listen up and listen good.”

“It really burns,” Debbie whispered, her voice shaking. She knew the skin was going to blister.

“What the Fuck did I just say?” He hissed.

Things jumped again, but Debbie was suddenly dizzy, seeing herself and being inside and outside herself. Then there was the night. The arrest. The holding cell. Claude again. Danny dying. Tammy telling her it would be okay. Danny dying, Danny dying. Meeting her. Meeting Lou. Claude again.

We’re going to have a real problem, Deborah so listen up and listen good.

And then she was spinning, black and white tv fuzz before her eyes and the sound of a needle scratching a record as it bumped against the needle again and again and again, out of songs. Out of time. Out of—

“Inmate!”

“Inmate, your lawyer’s here!”

“Ocean!”

“Shit. Shit, can I get backup in here? Block A. Inmate down. There’s an inmate down. D. Ocean.”

“We’re dispatching extra guards. Can you get a read on a pulse?”

Jas Obrecht's latest audio release is certainly a special one. The acclaimed music journalist has shared his complete audio interview with David Lee Roth guitarist Jason Becker just a few weeks before the release of 1991's A Little Ain't Enough.

youtube

Here are Jas's thoughts on the interview, which you can hear in its entirety above:

"In 1990, Jason Becker was rapidly ascending the heights of guitar stardom. The 21-year-old had already released two Cacophony albums with co-guitarist Marty Friedman, as well as his acclaimed 1989 solo album, Perpetual Burn. Most notable of all, Jason had just completed the sessions for David Lee Roth's A Little Aint Enough.

Fans of groundbreaking guitar playing were anxiously anticipating Roth's new album and upcoming tour — after all, Dave had previously performed alongside Eddie Van Halen and Steve Vai. As Jason revealed near the end of our conversation, a tour with Dave was not to be. A few days earlier, Jason had been diagnosed with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease. In his autobiography Crazy From the Heat, Dave praised Jason as 'the kindest, gentlest, most flexible, absorbing, want-to-learn spirit that 've ever worked with.' This parallels my observations of Jason.

To help prepare me for our December 13, 1990, phone interview for Guitar Player magazine, Jason sent me an advance cassette of Dave Lee Roth's A Little Aint Enough, with the request that safeguard the music until its official release. During our interview, he spoke at length about the Roth sessions, Marty Friedman and Cacophony, his views on guitars and amps, his musical upbringing, songwriting, and more.

I want to thank Jason for giving me permission to post this podcast. We hope you enjoy our conversation. And a special thanks to engineer/producer Nik Hunt for enhancing the sound of the 33-year-old master tape."

Parker Posey in Personal Velocity: Three Portraits (Rebecca Miller, 2002)

Cast: Kyra Sedgwick, Parker Posey, Fairuza Balk, John Ventimiglia (voice), Ron Leibman, Wallace Shawn, Susan Blommaert, David Warshofsky, Leo Fitzpatrick, Tim Guinee, Patti D'Arbaville, Ben Shenkman, Joel de la Fuente, Marceline Hugot, Brian Tarantina, Seth Gilliam, Lou Taylor Pucci. Screenplay: Rebecca Miller, based on her stories. Cinematography: Ellen Kuras. Production design: Judy Becker. Film editing: Sabine Hoffman. Music: Michael Rohatyn.

Having a literary celebrity like Arthur Miller for a father seems to have had a profound effect on writer-director Rebecca Miller: It surely informed the central installment of the collection of three short films she called Personal Velocity. Greta (Parker Posey) is an editor for a New York publishing house whose father (Ron Leibman) is a famous lawyer but also a bully and a philanderer. He lords it over his daughter and her husband (Tim Guinee), a fact checker at the New Yorker and an unambitious man who has been taking his time to write a dissertation for his Ph.D. When Greta achieves a measure of success in her career, she finds that it's time to discover who she is other than a daughter and a wife. Posey's fine performance gives this episode the energy and focus it needs. Similarly good performances come from Kyra Sedgwick and Fairuza Balk in the other two segments, both of which also deal with a woman at a turning point in her life. Sedgwick plays Delia, married to an abusive man (David Warshofsky), who escapes with her children to a shelter for battered women and begins a new life as a waitress. Delia has a history of using sex as a means to get even with the world, and when she finds herself giving a hand job to an unpleasant auto mechanic, she realizes she has to come to terms with her life. Balk is Paula, who is living with a man in New York City, but when she discovers she's pregnant and narrowly escapes being killed in a freak accident (we hear news reports of the accident in the other two segments), she hits the road, picking up a young hitchhiker (Lou Taylor Pucci) along the way. As with most road movies, it's a journey of self-discovery. But these stories feel more cooked-up than Greta's; they lack its verbal wit and the feeling that they come out of an internalized experience.
