I don’t use technology often, if I can help it I don’t use it at all. But, I had to use it right now, there was something I needed to look up on the computer. It wasn’t for a case or anything, I was just too curious and too impatient to wait to go to the library.
Because I don’t use technology often at all, I didn’t own a personal laptop. The only one I regularly used was the one I was given at work, and that was done begrudgingly. Though I couldn’t use that one right now as I was at my apartment I shared with my girlfriend. My girlfriend however, happened to have a laptop that she wouldn’t mind me using.
When I opened up her laptop, it was already unlocked with a tab already opened. My eyes unintentionally quickly glazed over the page, my eyes widening as I flitted across the page. It was some sort of story, one that contained things that made me blush. At the end of what was visible without scrolling down it read,
His fingers twitched at his side when you blew cool air onto his length, you sneered again, “If you touch me I’ll stop.”
My own trousers started to grow a little tight after reading that, then confusion made its way into my face, wondering what in the world I was reading. I clicked around, not really knowing what I was doing and I fell into a wormhole of reading. It wasn’t until I glanced up to see who owned the documents it all clicked together. They were my girlfriend’s stories.
They were her stories about a slew of characters that already existed in other media, the first one I had read even happened to be about a Star Wars character- Poe to be specific. Once it all clicked together I slammed the computer shut, feeling like I had invaded her privacy. Then I swiftly got into a cold shower, ready to freeze my arousal and wash off my shame.
—-
My foot was tapping even crazier than normal as I sat next to my girlfriend. We had decided on a night in, choosing to order take out and watch a few movies on a rare night off for me. It was her turn to choose, and unsurprisingly she chose Star Wars.
“What’s wrong?” She asked me when I started to basically vibrate when Poe came onto the screen. I couldn’t keep it in any longer, the guilt was eating me alive sitting here while I watched a constant reminder of what I read.
“I’m sorry-“ She was about to open her mouth to probably ask me why I was apologizing, but I steamrolled over it by ranting, “I looked at your writing- the erotica you write. I- I think it’s about already existing characters? Which I hadn’t heard about before-“
She finally did get a chance to cut me off by calling out my name, getting me to stop my nervous rant, “Are you mad- that I umm am writing about someone who’s not you?”
“No! It’s natural to be attracted to different people even while you’re with someone…” I was already falling down into another rant, this time however I caught myself and found the point I had been looking for, “I actually think it’s kind of hot.”
“Oh yeah?” Her eyebrows had shot up almost high enough that they were up into her hairline. I flushed a little at that, feeling vulnerable under her gaze even though I knew she always kept me safe.
“I- um actually was wondering if you could do to me-“ The words died on my tongue when my eyes met hers again, and just by her eyes I could see that she knew what I wanted. She just wanted me to say it out loud.
“What do you want me to do to you?”
“Wh-hat I read- can you umm-?”
She didn’t let me stumble any longer, cutting off my stuttering, “You want me to do the things you read about to you?”
I nodded vigorously, but that wasn’t enough for her. She leaned forward, grabbing my cheeks between two of her fingers, then prompting me, “Use your words.”
I whimpered at that, remembering seeing it in one of her writings. I learned from the character, who had mouthed off in the fanfic, instead breathily answering, “Yes, I want you to use me like you wrote.”
Soon enough my clothes had been taken off by me as I had to follow her command to ‘strip’. She did so as well, then straddling me, starting immediately to grind on my cock. I moved my hands to her hips to try to get her to do something more, but they were quickly pushed off. She then pinned them above my head, leaning forward to whisper into my lips, “No you don’t get to touch unless I tell you too.”
“Yes, Miss!” I gasped out instantly, wanting to be perfect for her.
“Mmmm good boy.”
That made me keen even more, loving the praise she gave me a dash of, I craved her showering it onto me. She kept her course of action, grinding onto my cock until her own arousal completely soaked it. All it would take was for the head of my cock to notch at my entrance, she was so wet I could slip in easily. But, all I could do was wait until she let me have her. I’m sure if I begged she’d only smirk at me, so I kept my mouth shut and took what I was given.
She finally sunk down onto my cock, though it was excruciatingly slow. I tried to fight my instincts, keeping my hips flush with the couch so I wouldn’t get scolded for moving without permission.
When the backs of her thighs finally hit the tips of mine, I groaned unintentionally. She seemed to love it, starting to buck her hips enthusiastically at my response. My hands balled up into fists, knuckles turning white from how hard I was gripping them. It was taking so much to not cum already, her hands pinning me and how beautiful she looked above me making it overwhelming.
“Awww are you already so close? You love getting used like this don’t you?” She goaded once she realized how much I was fighting my release with my squinted eyes.
It took me a minute to find the words, as all my mind could focus on at the moment was how she felt around me. My IQ was completely slashed to 60, but I did eventually get out, “Yes miss”
She sped up her pace at my words, alternating from grinding down into me hard and bouncing vigorously on top of me. When she lent forward to give me a bruising kiss, she swallowed all the noises I was making, until she dipped her head down to mark up my collarbone. It was all too much; I didn’t know how much longer I could hold on.
“You’re such a good boy for me Spencer.” She gasped above me, writhing on my cock while she continued to bounce. It was getting so hard to bear, especially with more praise, but I wanted to wait until she came. She looked like a goddess, especially just as she was about to cum, which she soon signaled by saying, “Oh god baby, you’re gonna make me cum!”
All I could do was watch as she removed one hand from where they were wrapped around my own to rub circles into her clit. She tipped her head back, mouth dropped open in a moan, and thighs shaking as her orgasm washed over her. She shook above me for a minute, hips stuttering as she tried to continue the pace she built while her orgasm was ripping through her. Once she had come down from her release she then focused on mine, building the pace back up to be even faster than her original one.
“Go ahead and cum baby boy.” With one more swivel of her hips, I fell off the edge at her command, filling her all the way up with my release. She held my hands up above my head still and still moved her hips while I rode out my high. When she stopped her movements once I whimpered loudly out of overstimulation, she finally let go of my hands.
I let myself relax as she slumped over onto me, resting her head onto my still somewhat heaving chest. With my hands once again free I wrapped my arms around her middle, entrapping her this time.
Looking up I then noticed the movie was still going, completely unobstructed by our actions. It was towards the end of the movie already, telling me how long we had been going at it. Though I didn’t care that I missed it, I got to act out a partial storyline from it, even if it was a made up one. The movie could only hold my attention for so long, there was someone far more interesting with me.
“So are you gonna write some with me?” She giggled out while tracing her fingers up and down my chest, lingering over my sternum. Her proposition was an intriguing one for sure, especially now that she explained some of it to me. Though, I think my writing style is more suited for more of an academic setting.
I snorted a little, giggling a little myself, then brushing my hair out of my eyes so I could see them more clearly. When I tipped her chin up with my fingers and their eyes met mine, they were full of mischief. She was definitely trying to get me riled up again, but I had a quip back of my own, “I don’t think I’d be good at it- but maybe you’ll let me read from now on? I wouldn’t mind editing some as well, it sounds fun.”

Hey Neighbor (Part 4)
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader Word Count: 2652 Warnings: none
Summary: You had a plan and then life came along with one of its own. With your future almost derailed you worked hard to get yourself back on track and finally everything seemed to be going right… that is, until your new neighbor moved in.
A/N: A huge thank you to my wonderful beta Sam @buckyofthemyscira​ Feedback is always appreciated!
Tumblr media
PART 3 | HEY NEIGHBOR MASTERLIST
The past few days have been exactly what you wanted a month ago, peacefully silent, yet somehow it doesn’t feel right. You were able to finish your paper in record time, fully concentrating on your work but part of you missed the incessant music from next door.
There was an odd comfort knowing Bucky was home playing, and with the knowledge of his musical talent you now wanted to hear what he would come up with. Getting to know him briefly was… well, it was something. It could have gone a lot better if you didn’t stick your foot in your mouth.
Bringing up the music related noise was one thing but how you ever managed to bring up the noise of his “nighttime activities” made you wish you could have vanished into thin air, never to be seen again. You had done your best to avoid Bucky ever since, rushing out of or into your apartment as quickly as possible. You weren’t sure how you could ever face him again but you couldn’t deny that a small part wanted to.
Facing your shared wall you imagined where Bucky might be, picturing him on his couch, lounging across the cushions of the soft leather as he leisurely plucks away at the guitar strings, sounding out a melody. Or was he more focused, sitting upright and gliding his dexterous fingers across his keyboard? Was he at his computer editing his melodies? Was he thinking of you?
The silence was deafening. With your palm pressed against the wall you began to lean in with your ear, hoping you could hear anything. With a slight gasp you jumped back, there was noise but not any coming from next door. Your phone buzzed against the coffee table, with Steve’s face illuminating the screen.
“Hey Steve!”
“Guess who I saw going into Sweetgreen?” The strain in his voice clued you in to the right guess, Lillian. “Yup, and she wasn’t alone … yeah she’s still with Jason, for now,” he muttered under his breath, expecting her to cheat again.
“I’m sorry Steve. You know you deserve better than her, right? I know you know this.”
Steve sighed heavily. Even though he knew what you were saying was right, seeing his ex still hurt a lot.
“Thanks Y/N, I do know that, doesn’t mean I’m going to torture myself though and go in there so is it cool if I pick us up something else? I’m in the mood for carbs.”
Chuckling at Steve’s admission you couldn’t help but agree, salads were great and all but all this Bucky stress you’ve put on yourself definitely makes you crave heavier foods.
“Tacos?”
“Mmmm, yes tacos! Extra guac please Rogers!”
You set your table in preparation for Steve to come over with food, remembering to throw your wallet on the table to give him money. The last time he came over you had forgotten, being so caught up in reliving the terrible memory of your interaction with Bucky. Steve might have been right, if he handled talking to Bucky maybe you wouldn’t be so worried about running into him.
“Sam tells me you guys spoke,” Steve said, digging a tortilla chip into the container of guacamole.
You chewed quickly to swallow the bite you had taken. “Why do you always ask me a question mid-chew?” you joked. “But yes, we did speak and…” your voice lifted with anticipation as Steve’s eyes widened, waiting for you to continue. “He gave me the number for Elena Rodriguez. She’s head of the social work department and…”
“Oh my god Y/N please just tell me!” Steve begged.
“I set up an interview with her next week!”
Steve’s eyes crinkled with his excited smile though it faded shortly after as you nervously mused about fitting the internship into your schedule.
“One step at a time,” Steve offered with a small laugh.
He’s right. One step at a time. You didn’t even go on the interview yet, you might not even be hired for it; the thought of which worries you even more, but you remind yourself to breathe and take things as they come.
Tumblr media
The elevator ascends slowly, filled with your eager coworkers looking to join the rush home. As it lets off on the ground floor, everyone dashes to the heavy glass doors as you leisurely stroll to the security desk.
Mr. Lee had a big smile on his face as he seemed to be in the middle of telling Steve a story. Slowly you approached the desk, seeing Steve smiling down at something in his hands.
“That’s what I said but Howard was ahead of his time. A comic book movie…” Mr. Lee chuckled. “It didn’t work in ’47 but it sure would be a hit now.”
“Oh, what’s this?” you asked.
Steve held up a sealed copy of a comic book, Kid Colt, which you were unfamiliar with.
Leaning over the desk towards you Mr. Lee spoke, “Tony found that for me in his father’s things. That’s how Howard and I met. He wanted to make a movie outta this. Stark Pictures. He never did though, the whole thing became a big tax write off.”
“I didn’t know you knew Howard Stark.”
“Oh yeah,” Mr. Lee boasted humbly, “Since I was seventeen. He was a good man. You know he was so proud to finally be a father. He worked a lot, probably more than he should have but he had Maria and the nannies bring little Tony over to the office. Tony Stank I’d call him. Oh boy, you could smell those diapers from a mile away it was so bad.”
Hearing Mr. Lee talk about the head of your company so freely like this made you laugh. It also made Tony Stark seem a bit more human. As far as you knew he was a workaholic who may or may not be seeing Pepper Potts. You’ve caught the way she looks at him though, with an extra twinkle in her eye or how she hesitates for the smallest moment to gather herself before going into his office.
“Tony Stank, that’s amazing,” you laughed, wondering if Pepper has ever heard this story before. “Well, have a good night Mr. Lee!”
Steve came around to the front of the desk standing tall, filling out his blue uniform with his broad stature. It was unfair how he could pig out on food with you and not show any sign of it. Meanwhile, your stomach has been rumbling all day from last night’s dinner.
“I’m on the late shift today,” he frowned.
“Poor Stevie,” you joked, wiping an imaginary tear from your eye. “Not that my night will be any better, I’ve got a shit ton of laundry to do.”
“Enjoy the sweaty laundromat then.”
“Oh I will,” you said sarcastically.
The steady hum of the running washing machines drowned out the sound of the newscast coming from a small TV mounted on the wall. It’s muggier inside than out, and even with the door open you can’t escape the permeating smell of cheap soap and mildew.
The wash cycle is nearly over so you move from the metal chair you had been uncomfortably sitting on, listening to music to pass the time, and lazily stroll over to the machine that is spinning your clothes. Quarters jingle in your pocket as you walk, ready to be placed in the dryer as you wait some more. You hate laundry day.
It’s crowded too, with all the chairs taken and other people leaning against the wall. A few kids were running around screaming, not helping their tired mother who looked too exhausted to even reprimand them as she folded all their clothes.
No one looked happy to be there, not even the attendants who had to apologize to the screaming man who didn’t understand why he couldn’t use one of their reserved machines. It was a cut throat world on laundry night, with other patrons fighting to stake claim for the next free machine.
A loud buzz lets you know your clothes are done, you wheel a basket over and open the door. The shadow of the clearly impatient person waiting for your machine blocks the dull light from the fluorescents above so you hope to grab everything quickly without dropping anything on the dirty linoleum floor.
“It’s all yours– oh.” Your mouth hung open, not expecting to see Bucky standing beside you. “H-hey.”
“Hey Y/N. Didn’t want to startle you,” he sheepishly said. “Uhmmm, is this free?” Bucky gestured to the obviously open machine.
You nodded quickly. Not knowing what else to say you stared awkwardly at the basket of damp clothes and said, “I’m gonna dry these.” Smooth.
Turning around you let out a deep breath and worried over what would happen next. It would be extremely rude to ignore Bucky and continue to listen to music. He hasn’t done anything wrong to you, not this week at least, but you were too scared to risk saying something stupid, again.
It would take at least a half hour for your clothes to dry so you put on a brave face and decided to walk back towards Bucky. Dressed in casual black shorts and a white t-shirt, his smooth, toned arms were crossed over his chest as he leaned against a support column, squinting to read the poorly transcribed closed captioning on the TV.
“Hey neighbor,” you said, offering a small friendly wave as he turned his head.
Bucky smiled, standing upright as he turned to face you completely to greet you back. He looked genuinely happy to see you, which made you feel even worse for how you left things.
“I’m sorry if I made things weird the other day. I didn’t mean to,” you blurted out before your brain gave any thought to see if this was a good idea.
Bucky chewed on his bottom lip, the gaze of his ocean blue eyes staring right through you. “Don’t worry about it,” he said with a cavalier air.
“So how’s the music coming along?” You were truly curious, having not heard any sound.
“It’s not bothering you, right?” Bucky winked.
“No, not at all,” you smiled softly. “Are you still working on that one piece?”
Bucky asked which one and you hummed the tune. Closing your eyes you missed the way his own lit up in delight hearing you repeat his melody.
“I know I complained about the noise but honestly it was so beautiful,” your voice lightened and he felt the weight of emotion even through the simple way you described it. “Maybe that’s why I couldn’t focus.”
Bucky adjusted his weight, needing to ground himself after your words made him feel as light as air. His music meant so much to him, working tirelessly to bring to life the sound he envisioned in his mind, to know that the unfinished piece had such an effect already made his heart swell with pride.
He developed his music like a chef crafting a recipe. Each instrument was a different ingredient, carefully selected notes were gathered on the counter, waiting to come together in a symphonic skillet. The flavors of music combine, heating up together the piano is covered in the spice of an electric guitar, with the drumming rhythm simmering beneath the surface as the sound of strings are poured generously over the top.
In the end the dish is a delicious feast for the ears but here you were, happily devouring the unfinished ingredient in its raw form.
“Yeah…” his voice came out breathless. Catching himself Bucky cleared his throat. “It’s actually for an upcoming video game. I can’t say which, but it’s part of an emotional scene when the main character finds his family is gone.”
“I can sense the depth of it.”
“That’s not even the best part,” he explained as his face grew with a wide smile. Bucky became lost in describing the emotion of the violins that would come in. “They’re the voice of the character and when he’s lost everything I have them coming in, crying out in pain. It’s sharp and strong, and beautifully tragic.”
Listening to Bucky describe his music resonated in your soul. You saw the complete love and passion he had for it and once again you felt terrible about asking him to stop.
“I’d love to hear it, if that’s okay.”
You looked at him with hopeful eyes, and Bucky smiled, nodding before he spoke his answer. He couldn’t wait for you to hear everything together.
You passed the time by getting to know each other a little more. Bucky has a younger sibling named Rebecca who moved west to work as an avian veterinarian in a bird sanctuary.
“My parents are lost without them around,” Bucky joked. “Do you know how hard it is to try to explain how to use Skype to them over the phone?”
“Oh believe me, I know. Somehow my mom always calls at the worst time to have me explain the most basic function on her phone that she already knows because we’ve gone over it a million times but…” You threw your hands up as Bucky joined in with your laughter.
When your clothes were dry Bucky gave you some space to fold them alone which you appreciated, not wanting to showcase your intimate items in front of him. He was still a stranger, sort of, but you were glad you were getting to know him.
Checking the time you realized it was on the late side and you still needed to shower before bed. Your clothes were packed neatly into a laundry bag, well most of them were at least. One sock managed to get eaten by the dryer to your dismay, and you hoped its pair was somewhere on your floor having fallen out as you prepped the laundry.
Slinging the bag over your shoulder, you gripped the bottle of detergent with your other hand and walked towards Bucky.
“Hey,” you called out to Bucky who lifted his head from his phone. “I’ve got a few things to do tonight still so can I take a rain check on hearing your music?”
“Yeah, of course.” Bucky did his best to mask his disappointment but he understood. He noticed the slump of your shoulders, balancing the laundry bag high on one side and letting your other limb hang low with the weight of the heavy bottle.
“Do you want me to carry that back?” he asked.
“Oh, no it’s okay, I can manage.”
The apartment was only two blocks away, two long blocks but still, you didn’t want to inconvenience Bucky even though judging by the curve of his biceps it wouldn’t be a problem.
Bucky walked with you to the front of the laundromat as you smiled and said goodnight.
“Goodnight Y/N,” he whispered, watching as you walked down the sidewalk until he could no longer see you in the crowd.
The words stayed on his lips like they were always meant to be there and Bucky has a brief flash of a life he’s never thought about.
A warm bed, made even warmer by the figure curled against him. His breath syncs with theirs and he’s at peace. His heart beats to the rhythm of love and his lips purse together to plant a soft lingering kiss on their forehead. A smile secures itself on his face because he’s truly happy; surrounded by the comforting feeling knowing that when he wakes up that person, his love, will be by his side.
The machine buzzes at the end of its cycle dragging Bucky back to a reality that has him gasping for breath. He steps outside for a minute for air, needing to clear his mind of the vision that seemed so real it scared him; for better or worse he can’t quite say.

Title: FaceTime{One-Shot}***
Zeeko Zaki x Reader
Warning: Cursing, Dirty Talk, Phone Sex, FaceTime Sex, NSFW AT ALL, SMUUUUUTTTT, Self Pleasure, DO NOT READ AT WORK, NOT FILTHY BUT RAUNCHY
Words: 2.5k
Summary: With the new season of FBI currently filming during the world’s climate, the PTB has decided that the cast are all to social distance in a designated hotel where they can be tracked to lessen any unnecessary exposure. You and Zeeko have been together for just under a year, and you’re still in the honeymoon stage, and he’s been “consciously distancing” for five weeks now.
Note: Thanks to a video from Zeeko’s IG stories, this little nugget came to mind. 
I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for reading!!! ❤️❤️

Tumblr media Tumblr media
“As you guys can see, this is my home away from home for the next three months, then a two-month break and right back into it,” he said as he walked around the hotel suite with his phone filming his surroundings for the live he was currently shooting.
 He walked from the living area to the open kitchen then showed off the view of downtown Manhattan. As he walked through the suite, he showed the two other rooms then made it to the bedroom.
 “And this is the bedroom,” he said as he jumped onto the bed. When he turned the camera onto himself, he groaned and leaned back onto the pillows.
 “As you can see, they are taking good care of us due to the current pandemic. I’ve been here for—five weeks, a little over five weeks actually, and yes, I’m going absolutely insane.”
 He read the comments as they rolled in and made a mental note as to which ones to answer.
 AriaTheGreat: Zeeko, I love you on FBI. You’re soo hot.
 Cheesing like no one’s business, he slightly bowed his head. “Uh—AriaTheGreat, thank you for that compliment. I’m glad you’re tuning in, and thank you for that.”
BertoCrushesQuads: Bro, you look like you eat lean and crush it in the gym. I dig your workout stories. Always pushing me to step my game up.
 “BertoCrushesQuads, Thank you, bro. Honestly, there’s this little competition between my brother and me regarding the gym and the weights so, yeah. I do like to eat lean things and try to stay on task there, but I’m Egyptian—so yeah.” He couldn’t help but laugh at that bit.
 As he got a little more comfortable in the bed, he continued to read through the incoming comments.
 Y/NInTheseSheets: How are you surviving being in isolation? Are you lonely?
 His smile got so wide when he saw your name; he couldn’t contain himself. He now looked like a child on Christmas morning. You always commented and liked his pictures, reposted his stories, and even popped into his lives always with your secret account. You used this account to mainly stan for him.
 “Uh—Y/NInTheseSheets, cute name. I’m taking it one day at a time. It definitely can get lonely.
 The comments flew in about ways to relieve loneliness and even those bold ones volunteering to help him with that. It was still wild for him to think about how his life had changed sometimes. One of the changes he was most grateful for was your role in his life. A year-long flirtation turned to no commitment dates, and those turned to an accidental kiss that neither of you could go back from once it happened because that kiss led to your first night together.
 Now almost a year from that first kiss, he was still in that honeymoon phase with you. He always wanted to be around you, kiss you, talk to you, lay with you. It was impossible not to think about you, and now that he’d seen you on the live, there was no way he was going  to be able to go over his lines for tomorrow.
 Y/NInTheseSheets: These Sheets are cold.
 Biting his bottom lip, he looked right into the camera and nodded.
 “I hear you,” he said before he skimmed the other comments trying to keep his cool.
 HoeFoFlo: You should hook up with Florian and hit the gym. Can you talk about meltdown!! 🥵
 “HoeFoFlo, wow. Really creative name. You know something, we actually met a few months ago. He’s a cool dude and a monster in the gym.”
 PatriciaMac: @HoeFoFlo whaddya know I’m a hoe for that man too. You’re right; I’d love to see a live of the two of you in the gym together. I’d lose my shit. 😏
Y/NInTheseSheets: Would love to do some hoe things right about now. 😛
 His jaw dropped, and he forgot where he was and what he was doing for almost a full minute. Sitting up, he leaned against the headboard. That was all it took for his member to stir. Pushing forward, he tried to keep talking to the six thousand people that were currently watching. He didn’t want to think more about what you were doing. He was sure you were lying in bed, fresh out the shower, probably still naked. He tried to stifle the moan when he thought of how you smelled, but he wasn’t successful at all.
 PrettyGirlLeena: @Y/NInTheseSheets saaaaame! Just looking at him makes me squirm. My lady parts are all tingly.
Y/NInTheseSheets: Tingliness is the least of my problems with my lady parts.  💦💦💦  
 Oh god, he thought. You were trying to kill him or have someone screen record something that he wouldn’t be able to talk his way out of.
 Y/NInTheseSheets: You just drive me crazy when you touch on it. Got my legs up, hands up, at attention.
 “There are some good things that are coming up this season for you guys. I can’t wait for you guys to check it out.”
 It was a meager attempt to force his brain away from your legs and touching anything.
 HoeFoFlo: @Y/NInTheseSheets, you should change your @ to @ThisHoezForZeeko. Girl, you thirsty.
Y/NInTheseSheets: Hit it, quit it. Fill that shit, get it!  🍑
 He was now past twitches and slow rising. His dick was hard.
 PrettyGirlLeena: Shut up, @HoeFoFlo. You should be the one to talk. We’re all thirsty. That is why we’re here. Stop trying to shame people. Look @ your name.  🙄
Y/NInTheseSheets: Tryna see if it feel what it look like. Been a lot of urge that I can't fight. It's a lot of time in the one night.
 Limit reached, he thought.
 “All right, guys, I’m gonna get off of this thing. I have lines to read and an early call. Thank you guys so much for tuning in to this live. Peace, love, and be kind to each other.”
 With that, he ended the live dropped his phone, rubbed his day fresh cut hair, and groaned. It was a loud groan that bounced off the walls and barreled back to him. When he took his phone up again, he quickly found your contact on his most recent calls and tapped facetime.
 After three rings, you answered, and sure enough, you were lying in bed with a sheet wrapped around you. God, you were beautiful.
 “Hi Habibi,” you slid out as your stretched.
 He couldn’t believe it had been almost six weeks since he’d physically seen you, and he still had six more to go.
 “That was not fair.”
 You giggled and changed the angle of your phone so he could see that your thighs were spread.
 “I’m sorry, Habibi. It was just too much fun to pass up, especially when I’d just gotten out of the shower. “
 “Ah, so you wanted to get me horny cause you’re horny.”
 You smiled again then bit your bottom lip. “Are you horny, Habibi?”
 You knew when you called him that it did things to him. You weren’t playing fair.
 “If I said no---.”
 “Then I’d just have my work cut out for me then,” you said before you ripped the sheet off your body to show him that you were, in fact, naked.
 He released an audible yelp that was half from shock and half from the intensity that his arousal hit him.
 “Fuck, baby girl.”
 Your gratifying smiled spread fully across your face before you dropped one of your hands to trail down your body, making a pit stop at your breast to tweak one of your nipples.
 “I miss you,” he whispered.
 “I miss you too. You have no idea. I used your soap in the shower and couldn’t help that my hand went down south.”
 Biting his bottom lip, he could see it as clear as day in his mind’s eye. His jeans were now highly uncomfortable. “How’d it feel?”
 “Not like when you do it. I like your hands better,” you whined.
 “Mmm, I wanna touch you so bad.”
 “I wish I could touch you, but you could—touch you.”
 His eyebrows rose. “Are we there?”
 You nodded. “Yes, we’re there,” you answered, referencing a conversation you’d had weeks ago that when things got tough, FaceTime sex was always an option. “We’re so there.”
 Not needing to be told twice, he sat up, perched his phone on a pillow, and began peeling off his shirt. Once it was off, he threw it in one direction then stood to peel off his jeans.
 “Mmmm, those jeans look uncomfortable, daddy.”
 His hands had never moved so quickly. He hopped as he peeled them off his thighs and kicked them in another direction.
 “You have no idea,” he replied before he climbed back into the bed with his boxer-briefs still on.
 As he laid on his back with a few pillows perched behind his head, he skimmed your body that was still in pain sight.
 “Show me,” you ordered. It was rare you did, but he liked it when you got controlling.
 Slowly he trailed his phone down his body, making sure that he dragged it out as long as possible. He knew what you wanted to see. Once he got to his waist, he lowered the waistband of his underwear before letting it snap back into place. Your groan was music to his ears.
 “Come on, baby, don’t tease me,” you whined.
 “Do you know me?”
 He gripped his hardened dick and rubbed, showing you just how hard he was. He couldn’t get it all in his hand no matter how big it was.
 “Mmmm, are you hard for me, baby?”
 His groan was deep, and he decided just to take them off. When he pulled the elastic down, his dick nudged on it until it sprang out, bobbing in the air.
 “Fuck daddy, I miss that dick so much.” Your hand was now between your thighs, and he’d never wanted to be someone else’s body part more.
 “Show me what’s mine, baby girl.”
 Without hesitation, you lowered your phone to show him just how wet you were. Your fingers glistened from the moisture that his tongue wanted all parts of.
 “Mmm, I’m so wet. Do you see what you do to me?”
 “Me? Look at this dick, girl.”
 He slowly stroked himself at first and then faster, all the while squeezing, doing his best to mimic your channel. His pants began low but quickly became audible. When he released an unexpected guttural groan, your moan overshadowed it, and he was instantly harder.
 “You have no idea how bad I want you, princess.”
 “Show me. Pretend your hand is mine. Pretend I’m right there between your legs about to drop my mouth on that big dick, Habibi.”
 He groaned, angled his head back, and closed his eyes. As his toes curled as the visual of you between his legs took over. “Mmm, you’re so fucking beautiful. I wish this dick was in your mouth.”
 “Mmm, me too. I wish you were fucking my mouth.” Your moans picked up, and his eyes snapped open to see your phone was now perched at the foot of the bed, giving him the perfect view between your legs, up your body, and of your face.
 “Shit, I love this view.”
 He quickly did the same with his phone so that you could have the same view and so he could have both hands. Once he was again lost in the pleasure of his hand with the visual of your mouth pushing him closer to the edge, he dipped his free hand lower to fondle himself.
 “Fuck, baby. How long has it been? They’re huge.”
 “The whole time,” he replied through his grunts.
 “This pussy misses you so bad. I wish you could stretch me out.”
 “You take me so fucking well, baby girl. Only you take this dick.”
 For the next few minutes, neither of you spoke. You just watched each other and raced to your respective finish lines. Every few seconds, your moans turned to whines and his to grunts and yelps. Your back was now arched off the bed with one hand on your breast.
 “Fuck, fuck, fuck. You’re gonna make me come!”
 “Shit me too,” he whimpered.
 You shot up to rest on your elbows and look right into his eyes. “Come for me, daddy. I want it. I want you to come right now.”
 “Where would you want it?”
 “Right here,” you said as you patted your pussy. “Come on, this wet pussy. Give it to me.”
 Your fingers were circling your clit faster, and he knew you were close.
 “Come with me, baby girl. Imagine you're sitting on my face. I want it. Soak my beard, princess.”
 Your hips bucked as if you were riding your fingers, pushing yourself to go faster and faster.
 “Oh my god, Zeeko, I’m coming, I’m coming, I’m coming!”
 Your screech was loud before your eyes closed, and your jaw dropped, and in seconds, you were screaming as the pinch of your nipple was tight. It was his telltale sign that you were coming. He wasn’t far behind you. His grip tightened around his dick, and when he stroked up to squeeze around his head, he shot his essence. Your eyes were glued to him as he released stream after stream up into the air. You watched it splat on his inner thigh, pelvis, and abdomen. Your gingers didn’t slow. He knew you liked to watch him come. It always turned you on even more.
 “Oh my god, I’m coming again,” you whined before you dipped your digits inside your heat, dropping your head back. He saw the liquid gush from you, and he was a goner.
 “Fuck!”
 It was the only thing he managed before he, too, came again, sending even more come across his belly. Neither of you spoke. The only sounds were that of your shared panting as your bodies cooled. When he brought his eyes back to his phone, you brought your head back to look at him. Your smile was a sheepish one as you brought your knees together, still giving him the most tempting sight of your soaking core.
 “Oh my god, my phone is soaked.”
 “That’s not the only thing.”
 You slipped your hand between your legs, briefly blocking his view before you brought your hand up to your mouth and moaned.
 “Mmmm. Tastes so good. ”
 “You’re evil.”
 You giggled, bent down, took your phone, and brought it to your face.
 “Six weeks more.”
 He groaned and brought his phone to his face. “The only way I’m going to make it is if we schedule more of these—a lot more.”
 The two of you laughed together until you both laid on your beds, angling the phone on the pillow beside you so the other would feel as if they were right beside them. That was the way you remained for the next few hours, all the while penciling each other in every night to do just this.
 It was going to be a long six weeks.

Horror tropes? In my Roswell, New mexico? It’s more likely than you think!
Tumblr media
In this essay I will...
...be mentioning a few horror/thriller movies and while nothing explicitly gory or scary will be shown in this post, those movies definitely contain scenes and themes that can be disturbing/scary/triggering, do your researches if you’ve got doubts!
...be focusing on the Maria and Alex road-trip, from the moment the car breaks down to the last scene with Travis’ twin. I’m probably going to be led to briefly mention the other scenes that are intertwined with this arc (the echo date and the Planet 7 Kyle and Isobel scene, as well as the marlex car drive when I feel like it is relevant). 
...be approaching specific themes that are used in the scenes that compose this little arc and also more general ones like sound, editing, cinematography and color. 
... be reaching a lot. I do not think everything I will be mentioning is 100% thought-out and voluntary (although you never know). But I’m a firm believer that in filmmaking, yes even inside a CW show, the symbolism comes through subconsciously. So like, maybe they didn’t mean to use corn field as a mark for transition, but it doesn’t take away from the fact that this symbolism works with the story they’re telling and for the journey the characters are in that moment. Additionally, lighting, decor and costumes are always a choice, just like the camera doesn’t position itself randomly, someone’s behind and thinking of the composition of shots that, even if it’s in a basic way, has meaning.
... be starting chronologically but I’ll also make jumps backward and forward, grasping on themes when they come up. Ok, then, let’s dive in! 
This episode references and uses a lot of the iconic mechanisms of the horror movie genre. Alex and Maria’s comfortable road trip atmosphere, open hearted conversation in the car, breaks at the same time as the car itself breaks. The camera, steady so far, the shots following a well known pattern of shot/counter-shot, becomes more unpredictable and shakier and suddenly we’re out of the car, and bam, large shot. 
Tumblr media
From the moment they’re out of the car, you won’t be able to see the horizon. Maria and Alex are stuck in a corn field, and they’re stuck in the frame. 
Tumblr media
Then poof, Travis appears out of nowhere, accompanied with a pang of music, frightening us and them. Well, more exactly, it cuts on a shot that we’ve seen before without Travis, now with Travis, which gives us the appearing out of nowhere effect. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Alex says it best.
Well now they’re stuck with a strange guy with an axe, and in a corn field 😬
Tumblr media
Hey, have you seen he’s got an axe??? or do you need a close-up???
Okay, this scene ends there. So, let’s take a break and talk about cornfields. There’s many examples of horror movies making use of a field of corn as a location, famously Children of the Corn (1984), Dark Night of the Scarecrow (1995) Signs (2002), that last one also involving, you guessed it, aliens. 
Tumblr media
Screenshots from the Signs trailer.
Corn fields are strongly associated with rurality, especially rural America. More largely, they can represent renewal, fertility or abundance. In the contrary, they can be seen as a very ominous location due to their immensity, a labyrinth in which you can’t see very far away and from which you’ll have trouble coming out. 
Although I’m pretty sure Maria’s chase in the cornfield is more of a reference to The Shining (1980) it reminded me of one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies Tom à la ferme (2013), in which Tom is basically held hostage in rural Canada. The corn field chase is a turning point, the last of Tom's attempts to escape. 
Tumblr media
Cornfields apparently also often imply scarecrows, which are inherently scary in my opinion but we’ll talk about it more later. 
The next scene takes place inside of Travis' cabin. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The lighting here is pretty low, the light coming from a few small sources, creating a lot of shadows. The main color is a greenish/yellow which can be associated with nature and earth, rurality, dirty, suffocating. If we look at it, the color scheme of the entire road trip is very much following this pattern of browns/yellows/greens because of the cornfield and the color of the characters costumes (the exception being Maria’s truck which is a bright red). In opposition, the scenes that are intertwined are either blue and orange for Max and Liz or a lot of pink/blues/purples for Isobel and Kyle in planet 7 (bi bi bi).
The cabin is messy, supposedly reflecting the state of the owner’s mind. We get a nice close-up on meat + a knife and all of the creepy skins on the walls. Also, it’s noticeable that from this moment on, the camera is shakier, we experience different angles too. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We are given many visual clues that something is wrong. 
I’m gonna pass on the sound of the sound of the cow parodying a werewolf + the vampire diaries inside joke. 
Btw, if the fact that Travis names his cows -- that he skins for a living -- like human women isn’t enough for you to think mmmm. we are in danger. Well, don’t worry. The cw spells it out for you!!
Tumblr media
We know Alex! We got contextual clues!
Right after this, Alex and Maria make another direct reference to being in a horror movie situation. 
ALEX: This is why I don’t like horror films. The gay guy always dies first.
MARIA: ???? 
ALEX: Or... second. Okay, that’s fair. That look, that’s fair. 
I think this bit is interesting, because not only does it denounce an horror movie cliché (the black person of the cast dies first, the queer person is second) but also in this situation I believe it can be see as kind of a callout on the fandom’s behavior that i’m not gonna spell out for you but yeah. Fellow queer people, don’t forget you’re not the only one who is sometimes badly/unfairly represented. 
Moving on. In the next scene, Alex is searching the cabin for clues, and we are also given some about Travis. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Either he has a twin brother or he’s got a framed picture of himself on his wall. Oh, and he’s military.
Then Travis startles Alex and plays a little bit of banjo, which is a good excuse to stop and talk about music. The show uses a lot of diegetic music aka music that is present in the universe of the story, that the characters can also hear. It justify the use of said music and it ties the audio with the picture.
The banjo already is heard at the very beginning of the arc during a cut from the planet 7 scene to the road trip scene. We get a few notes that indicate a change of scenery and that helps smooth up the transition, and I’m pretty sure it was also supposed to be diegetic music coming from Maria’s radio. The banjo, like the corn field, is super linked with rurality and rural America (again!)
Another reference of the banjo in horror/thriller would be Deliverance (1972).
youtube
I can’t not think of this movie when I hear banjo unfortunately. 
The way Travis plays, aggressively bad, and while singing I Think We’re Alone Now, is supposed to make you think about that scene in The Umbrella Academy be quite unsettling, another point for isolation horror. 
Tumblr media
So sweet of Travis to attack Alex with a guitar, and then a smol knife, and not with the axe <3. 
Tumblr media
Then we’ve got a traveling zoom-in (or equivalent I’m not sure it isn’t a steady-cam here but the effect is the same) on Maria. This kind of effect can feel a little bit over-the-top and dramatic, in a old genre movie kind of way. It is usually used to bring the audience in, make it feel like you’re evolving in the same universe as the characters (here you’re walking toward Maria). In a scene where you should feel scared, it can be a mean to make you feel more engaged, as well as underlining Maria’s expression, her fear. In my opinion, this is also a way to tell you that from now on, Maria is the main character of this arc, the one that you will be following after the commercial break (that occurs right after) and making it more suspenseful. 
The scene after the break is the start of the corn-field chase. Travis steps out of the cabin, the cuts are faster, many close-shots, some even out of focus, that accelerate the rhythm, and a long fade-in of a new song: a modern, electronic song (Kim Petra’s Close You Eyes) completely in opposition with the acoustic banjo and with the atmosphere of the scene, which makes it strange and makes you think oh, what a weird choice! (at least it did for me lol). The lyrics, however, go very well with the scene. 
I feel it coming on You've got nowhere to run There's no way you'll make it out alive
Yep. 
We find out right after that the music is in fact diegetic but for Isobel and Kyle, it’s another use of music to ease a transition between 2 scenes that are different in every possible way. 
Now, the corn-field chase. As I mentioned before, I believe it’s a direct reference to The Shining’s ending chase scene where Jack Torrance chases his son Danny through a vegetal labyrinth with an axe. 
Tumblr media
From the shots to the lighting (from behind or on the side, making the characters look like silhouettes) both scenes are very similar. Also, Travis is styled like Jack Nicholson ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh look, Michael’s here to save the day!
Tumblr media
Oh well, guess not. 
Yeah, in this scene, and like we’ve been shown before, Maria is going to be the one that saves everyone. The racist cliché of the black character dying first in a horror movie is reversed, Maria is the last one standing. The scarecrow (that looked conveniently a lot like Maria) is supposed to play in favor of the bad guy, it’s a scary element, creating confusion and unease, but here the character decides to basically take it into her own hands and bend the rules. This character says i’m not that archetype, and she’s going to be using the horror movie tools against itself. 
Lastly, the final horror movie recurring theme that I’m going to talk about is the twin/the double. 
Yes, twins is a spooky tool used in horror movie because their similarities make them unsettling, uncanny. 
Tumblr media
There’s also the idea that if one were to replace the other, you wouldn’t be able to tell. The impostor is a very scary concept that Roswell has also dealt with before. 
Tumblr media
I can’t be the only one that has been traumatized by that halloween special of the Simpsons where Bart has an evil twin... 
It’s the last twist of the arc, there is a bad!Travis and a good!Travis. The bad one kept the other locked-up somewhere and had taken his place. 
It’s particularly interesting for Roswell that has a history with twins/doppelgänger, and that since the original show. It is a clear instance of in-world foreshadowing here! (howdy)
My conclusion about all this is that the people who worked on 2x06 had a great time building the episode and it shows, while also making it enjoyable to watch and yeah, we love to see it!

Obey Me! One Master to Rule Them All! Fanfic #4
A Different Way to Exercise (MC x Beelzebub) (Comedy-Fluff) (Tickle Fic) [Word Count: 1921]
By: @cynergy-laughter

You had gotten finished with your assignments from RAD, and you were taking a break. You went around to try and find something to do. Maybe Asmo or Mammon would escort you around town? But then you heard a groan coming from Beel and Belphie’s room. You leered a bit and knocked on the door. It was a few seconds, but soon, Beel had opened the door and looked down at you, it was like he suddenly lit up.
“[MC]! How are you?” Beel smiled wide as he hugged you and pulled you into his room!
“Gah! Hehey Beel, I’m feeling secure in your embrace, how about you?” You asked, hugging him back.
“Careful [MC], he might eat you.” Belphie said from his bed, with headphones half-on-half-off his ears, giving a smile as he saw Beel cuddling you.
“That might be true… I was just doing a work out, and I’m feeling a bit hungry… you have any snacks?” Beel tilted his head… so cute.
“Uhh, yeah, what would you like? I have fruit snacks, chips, cookies, pocky, umm… snack cakes…” you list off.
“Yes.” Beel said, holding out both of his hands, to which you gave him everything you had from your long jacket with big pockets. I’m talking about gigantic pockets.
“Beel, if you eat those, you’re gonna have to do something about those calories.” Belphie warned as he continued relaxing on his bed.
“Belphie… working up a sweat made me hungry, and i won’t last until dinner…” Beel said as he opened all the fruit snack packs into his hand and popped them into his mouth.
“Well, just try to take the snack cakes out of the plastic before you eat them?” You asked, putting your hand on his arm.
“That happened one time, and we got it out.” Beel sighed as he carefully took the whole snack cake out of the plastic and put it into his mouth.
“Well, What are you gonna work out? You already did your arms, legs, and abs. And it’s too late to go for a run.” Belphie said.
Beel stopped the snack session and looked down at the handful of chips. “... You’re right… what else can I train?”
You thought about it, you had some thoughts, making working out Beel’s glutes, maybe push ups to work the core? Wait… this could be perfect… “I have a suggestion!” You say excitedly, earning the attention of Beel and Belphie, “How about we work on your endurance and reflexes?”
Beel raised his eyebrow and tilted his head. “Explain…���
“I suggest a tickle fight! A mixture of endurance training, wrestling, reflexes, and a bit of skill! And it helps out with stress as well!” You say, smiling, though Beel was looking at you like you had grown two new heads. Meanwhile, there was a bit of snickering from Belphie.
“MC, you can’t be serious! Out of all the brothers to ask to have a tickle fight with… you choose Beel? You don’t have a chance at winning at all, he’s probably the least sensitive out of all of us.” Belphie chuckled.
“It’s not about winning, it’s a bonding exercise, and on top of that, it’s a more playful version of wrestling.” You defended.
“Yeah, wrestling, which would be no contest against Beel! If anything, he’d be giving you a work out, AND a run for your tickle monster title.” Belphie smirked and shook his head a bit, reveling in being the one with sense right now.
You had to admit, Belphie was right, Beelzebub was the least sensitive of the brothers, in fact, you tried tickling him a couple of times, and he has only given you a soft giggle. Maybe this wouldn’t be such a good idea?
“Hmm… it does sound fun… but, Belphie’s right, I’d make you hang up your tickle monster title…” Beel said, “Hmm… MC… I have an idea about making this an even playing field…”
“...What?” Belphie double takes looking at Beel.
“W-What? What do you have in mind?” You ask, intrigued, to which Beel smiled and went over to his shelf and took a book of curses. “I sometimes use some of these curses to give myself a bit of challenge during some workouts. Look on page 325.”
You flipped through the book and it seemed your face lit up. “A Sensitivity Curse… oh my gosh, I didn’t know there was such a thing!” You said excitedly.
“I never had a chance or reason to try this curse out in my workout, but, maybe I can use this to adopt new training options.” Beel said with a smile. “Plus, it’ll give me a chance to get closer to you, after all, according to someone special to me, it’s a bonding exercise too.” You blushed at that.
“Beel, how long have you had that… did you take that from our library?” Belphie raised an eyebrow concerned.
“Nah, I bought one for myself, Levi helped me find it online.” Beel said. “He apparently said it was the latest edition, so no doubt, Satan would want to borrow it if he found out.”
“Okay… let’s see if I can get this right, stand facing your target, and focus you gaze on his or her body… and say this spell…” you said as you silently read it, “Okay… Beel, are you ready?”
“Do it.” Beel planted his feet flat on the ground in a half-squatting stance.
“As a brush of the breeze shall make you giggle, and the sight of feather make thee squirm and wiggle, each poke and prod will grow your laughter, and shall be dispelled a night thereafter~.” You said as you used one hand to cast the curse on Beel, making him shiver everywhere as the magic swirled around him. As the lights calmed, Beel stood where he stood, and he straightened himself up a bit.
“How do you feel?” You asked, setting the book down.
“I mean… I don’t feel any different…” Beel looked around at himself and then looked back at you.
“Hmm… lift up your arms, I wanna try something.” You said, and then you used one finger on each side to poke Beel’s sides. Beel squeaked and took a few steps back, holding his sides. You and Belphie both widened your eyes at his reaction. “Hehe, well, it looks like the curse works~.”
“So that’s what it’s like to be ticklish like Belphie…” Beel said, blushing.
Belphie blushed after Beel said that. “I am not ticklish! It just surprises me…”
You smile and go over to Belphie. “Oh does it now?” You said playfully.
“Stay over there, [MC], I will get you so much worse.” Belphie rose from his lying position slightly, getting ready to run.
“He’s right, you have a match with me.” Beel said, slipping his shoes off.
“Hehe, that’s right, I guess you’re safe for now~.” You wink at the blushing Belphie before heading over to Beel and getting into a wrestling stance. “Oh! We need to establish a safe word, in case it gets too much for us, I know that it can sometimes get overwhelming.
Beel blinked and thought about it. “Oh… hmm… How about Chicken?”
You giggle a bit. “Sure, that works, and every time we say it, we take a break before continuing. Unless you mean to stop altogether.”
Beel got into his wrestling stance. “Sounds good to me. Now, let’s go.” He began circling the plush carpet around his room along with you on the opposite side of the room. You both were studying each other’s movements, you knew Beel wouldn’t move until you made one, especially since he’s pretty much as ticklish as you are at this moment.
You move in to try and flutter a bit on his side, to which Beel’s left hand grabbed your wrist and tried to tickle your side! You got hit with the tickles, but you also had your other arm, so you shot your other hand up into Beel’s left armpit, and wiggle your fingers.
“A-Aaaahaha! Hehey! Gehet outta thehehere!” Beel tried to pull away from the pit tickling, to which you followed his moving.
“Hehehehe! I will nohohot! In fact, I think I’ll go a bit further down~!” You teased as you moved your fingers further down and back up Beel’s arm, to which Beel started laughing a bit more , especially on his forearm and toward the inside of his elbow!
Belphie was intrigued at his brother’s significant octave jump. “Hehe, MC, I think you found a weak spot.”
“Noohohoho!” Beel let go of your wrist and pulled his arm away, but you moved in to tackle Beel onto the ground and try to wrestle him into a pin. But it seemed that wrestling Beel would be a bit of a struggle, it seemed you had to be crafty. Beel was trying to reach for your armpits now, but you grabbed his hands and began to essentially arm wrestle with intense playful eye contact.
“Come on MC. Take him down.” Belphie smiles as he watched your wrestling match from the comfort and height of his bed.
You chuckle as you kept on trying to move your arms to get toward a swift open attack. You suddenly let go of Beel’s hands and you began squeezing his sides, which made Beel’s waist wiggle back and forth, trying to avoid the squeezes!
“Nah! Nahahaha! Stahap! Stahahap!” Beel laughed, almost doubling over as his waist shook side to side, he tried to tickle your armpits, but this new sensitivity proved to be a bit much to handle.
“Hahaha! You’re making Beel dance!” Belphie chuckled a bit, teasing Beel and making him blush.
“Hehe, you are really cute when you blush.” You say as you went and tickled his abdomen. Beel squealed and rolled away laughing, holding his stomach, both you and Belphie were shocked at this reaction.
“Chihihicken! Chickehehehen!” Beel was a blushing, semi-sweating mess by the time he finished rolling away and began panting on the floor.
You smile as you crawled over to Beel, and sat next to him, on your legs. “Sorry, was that a good spot I got you?
“Just a combination of the teasing, and the belly… it was a bit much… but I kinda liked it… it wasn’t as torturous as I thought it was gonna be…” Beel panted, and looked up at you.
“Well, now we both know that you like short tickly bursts rather than longer periods of tickling” You scooted closed to Beel, lifted his head up, and placed it in your lap, and began to pet his head.
“Mmmm… that feels nice…” Beel said, closing his eyes and sheepishly smiling.
“Hey, I thought you were just taking a break, that seems like more than just a break.” Belphie crossed his arms, raising a brow.
You look at Belphie and smile at Beel. “What say you? Hehe, you wanna continue?” You ask, winking at Beel.
Beel heard what Belphie said, and then saw you winking at him, and he realized what you meant. “Heh, yeah, let’s do it.”
Beel rubbed your face tenderly before getting up and you both began stretching a bit.
“Belphie, if you could say one, two, go, please?” You say, with getting into stance.
“Alright, if we’re all ready.” Belphie rubbed his hands together. Oh they were ready. “One… Two… NOOOOO!”
You and Beel didn’t even wait for Go, as you both turned towards Belphie and jumped at him, on his bed, with Belphie’s wide-eyed-being yelling in surprise.

3, 11, 12, and 13 for the ask thing!!!
(already did 3 in my first for these things so I’m gonna skip to 11) 11: What’s your afterlife drink? Mmmm tough one. I’m not a big connoisseur of alcohol (I can drink it legally). When I wanna’ get drunk, my go to is Tequila though (I’d honestly love to try a Johnny Silverhand, it sounds delicious). I’d say I’d probably be some take on bloody mary but with tequila and lime, cuz listen, Tequila goes great with tomato or CLAMATO juice and I like a thick drink that makes me forget I’m drinking because if I can taste the alcohol, I’m gonna’ look like a baby.  I can do shots but the first 3 go down HARD. I legit sit and gag and shake my head like a child tasting something bitter for at least 5 minutes after each shot. Granted, I’ve never had top shelf or even near top shelf liqour so maybe I’ve just had nasty ass, low tier tequila. I am also a notorious lightweight so there’s that :D If Vera got an Afterlife drink though, she’d be some type of strawberry daquiri with a little umbrella. Just for the shits and giggles of it all. When you drink this, remember the woman who could hack your circuits and wipe out your entire crew without anyone being the wiser. Remember she could also punch you right on your ass. Don’t you dare mock that drink.  12: does the rocker lifestyle (either as a rocker or somewhere behind the scenes) sound appealing to you? This one I’m gonna’ apply more to my V than me. Vera could definitely see herself in that line of work; Johnny’s influence has only made that interest stronger. She gets it, losing yourself in the music, the power of being on stage, the performing, the rush of the crowd, but she also kinda finds herself romanticizing the touring, being on the road, seeing different places. Me personally, I hate being the center of the attention, I have anxiety, and I’m naturally shy anyways, so I’d much rather work behind the scenes. I have interest in how tech works, I like the idea of learning tech based skills from programming to soundboards and video editing, so doing something that like for concerts would honestly probably be pretty fun. 13:  what quest/sidejob/gig fucked you up the most? (TW: suicide, fictional and real situations discussed) So previously, I answered it with The Sinnerman quest (long story- im religious and didn’t feel comfortable finishing it but I watched it on Youtube so I know the gist of what happens). This time around, I’ll go with Both Sides, Now. (The Evelyn Mission). This one is just... it is what it is. Dark, macabre, gruesome. Judy’s VA did flawless with her delivery of lines during the entire game but most notably here. The girl sounds like she just got done doing those raw type of screaming sobs, the ones that make you feel like your throat is going to give out, and I hate imagining Judy have to do that upon coming back home.  I’ve never witnessed something like that to a full extent but I had a neighbor who was found who’s mother came home to the mess of it all, and, well, when she saw her (adult age) kid, the screaming sob she let out seemed to deafen the neighborhood. It stuck with me for weeks after, that loss and the pain in her voice, and I think that quest hit some emotional beats that really drove the entire quest home. It made me feel like I did that night with my neighbor; I didn’t know Evelyn that well, I didn’t know my neighbor at all, I was just a witness to a person’s worst nightmare, and it just had me fucked up for a while. Thank you for the ask, I appreciate it!! Sorry to end it on a really dark note aofkeoaf

The Man From TB5 - Re-Review #46
Definitely another strong favourite today!
Tumblr media
Let me take you back to one of Lady Penelope’s main episodes from TOS - ‘The Man From MI5′. Nice play on the title here. But, when we might have expected this to be a job for Gordon, it’s actually one for er- John?
P.S. Did you know O’Hagan and Aisling made a Thunderbirds Picture Storybook edition?
Tumblr media
So yes, after all the asking, it’s John, and she is sticking with John. Gordon really must be gutted. This scene was absolutely golden as well.
“Did I hear party? Do you need a date? I could be there in no time! (Scott, let me borrow Thunderbird One).”
“Thank you Gordon, but I already have a date.”
“John?”
“No way! You actually got him to leave Thunderbird Five.”
“Mmmm...”
“He wanted it kept quiet.”
“But I’m the obvious choice! John hates social... anything. Besides, whose gonna’ do space monitor duty?”
“Funny you should mention that.”
“I had to ask.”
“Walked into that one!”
“And who do you think’s taking him up there?”
“Uhh... Ohhh.”
Also, I like the fact that Lady Penelope has a wildlife preserve.
Tumblr media
Yes, the date is none other than John. Not a second of doubt that he can handle a ‘little’ social situation.
“Speaking of amazing how do you like that custom tuxedo I designed? Didn’t you notice all the cool hidden functions? Like the radio in your collar.”
“This isn’t a spy mission, Brains.”
I don’t know, John, you are with the UK’s top spy.
“It’s just a quiet, little charity auction.”
“I may haveunderstand the quiet part, a bit.”
“hAnd the little.”
Yeah, thanks for that Parker! So the only part she actually told him about correctly was that it’s a charity auction. Thankful for that radio now, John?
Tumblr media
“John, are you alright?”
“I thought there’d be less this. People. Talking. In person. I mean communications is my job, I talk to people from all over the world, I’d just rather do it from space.”
I think John could be socially autistic.
Look at Sherbet though, sitting so happily on Penelope’s arm.
Tumblr media
“Place like this his ha ‘ot-bed for pick pockets. hIn my day, this would ‘ave been ha gold mine.”
“No one will be picking anyone’s pockets tonight.”
“Not while hI’m hon watch duty, M’Lady.”
Definitely famous last words. Wait for it.
I love how one minute Lady Penelope is pulling John away from people and telling him who to talk to, and then the next just walks off and leaves him to fend for himself.
“Did I mention the cufflinks?”
“Will they make me invisible to crowds?”
“Why didn’t I think of that?”
Because you are not John who is currently very desperate to disappear from the face of the Earth.
Also, I love how Scott has a laptop. Obviously he’s doing Tracy Industry work today.
“What exactly do you do, Dear boy?”
And could you be any more patronising? I mean, go on, give it a try.
Did I see Kat in crowd as well?
Tumblr media
And the focus on the food? It was spot on really. It’s the little things that help to make episodes like this. This episode had a great balance of humour and tense moments, with a brilliant rescue, a great appearance by The Hood and a very nice view of a different side to John.
Tumblr media
With some absolutely brilliant moments by Parker. Only he and Sherbet could end up in a fight with kitchen staff in a Chateau kitchen at a party whilst he’s meant to be looking out for pick pockets.
“Wonderful party isn’t it?”
“’ey? ‘e’s cheered hup. No kitchen staff? Goood grief, hit’s-”
“You weren’t supposed to see that!”
“hIndeed. Now, drop that weapon, hor hI’ll be hobliged to serve you ha Parker ‘aymaker.”
And they actually showed more of the ‘fight’ than I expected them to. I mean, hitting someone’s head with multiple saucepans..? Because that’s PG.
Tumblr media
“Welcome everyone, and- *Clatters* - And, they’re obviously preparing our very delicious desert.”
It’s a good thing she can talk her way out of almost anything.
“One million.”
Just throw and smash your glass... yes, that’s exactly what I would do at a formal charity auction. As I’m sure we all would.
“And how does he expected to pay for it? By robbing us?”
“That’s exactly right.”
“The Hood...”
“Pick pockets!”
Yes, Parker, they made it past you. Just.
“What makes you think I’ll willingly give you any of my money, hey?”
“I placed laser cutters on the cables, that hold up this Chateau. Would you like a demonstation?”
Why did you even say anything man?
“This one doesn’t show up on the system.”
“Who exactly are you?”
“Me? I uh...”
I did find it hard to believe that The Hood wouldn’t recognise John though. I mean, he’s even been to Tracy Island, he’s seen their portraits. I know John looks a little different in a suit, but still. I mean, it does look like The Hood is considering him, but I still think there would have been recognition there.
“If I could get outside, I could try and disable them.”
“You’ll need a distraction. Parker?”
“Right ‘away, M’Lady. hOi! hIf you’re gonna rob hus, hat least ‘ave the decency to serve proper canapes!”
Now chair throwing! This is perfect! Exactly my type of party.
Tumblr media
Oh Bottomsly really is an idiot. I mean the name did hint.. A candlelabra? Great choice of weapon. TAG really risked their Universal rating on this one.
“Fool! You’ve activated the laser cutters!”
For once, and only once, I agree with The Hood. Bottomsly, you are a fool.
“This place is doomed!”
“And so are you!”
Well... nearly. When have we ever known The Hood not to have some kind of escape plan at the ready? I mean, he did in ‘Legacy’ and he really should have been done for then.
Nice of him to give us a little bow as well.
Tumblr media
Now to go off topic for two seconds and see if I can give anyone a laugh for today;
You know what, I will give you the two images that popped into my head during this scene, particularily from the above photo.
1. Titanic. Iconic moment that I need not say more on. I will advise though that I’m not really a fan of this film, so I don’t quite know why it came to me.
Tumblr media
2. Richard III (Ian McKellen’s version) - where, defeated Richard III falls into the fire below, arms wide and smiling. I never really understood this version of the film. It’s set in Nazi Germany... I will say no more.
Tumblr media
“Hairstyle not recognised. And not very stylish.”
“We speak of this to no one.”
“To the rocket!”
Oh my gosh, the humour with this pair and EOS (finally someone wrote an episode with EOS)! This was so so needed in this episode and had me in fits.
Tumblr media
“I’d like to see the reports for myself.”
“I’m not sure you’d understand them. But I’ve found a wonderful puppet show you might find entertaining.”
Best thing is - I reckon Gordon would have really liked that puppet show.
“Gordon to John. You’re AI is being evil again.”
I wouldn’t quite say this counts as evil, Gordon, more like mean, but your choice of words.
“EOS?”
“It’s not me this time!”
“This time?”
Oopps, nearly gave it away.
“I mean... How can I assist?”
See, there you go! Bond over your love for John. Probably the only thing (besides humour) that these two have in common. It was also really nice to see Gordon in Thunderbird Five. He never made it up there in TOS.
Tumblr media
“I’d still take this over the crowds.”
John really does have a better head for heights than I do then.
“Scott, we need you now!”
Yep... like overdue need you that should have been.
“John, I’m on my way.”
“Pursue The Hood.”
“FAB.”
Yeah, because Kayo does the Bad Guy Chasing not the Rescuing.
“You expect me to slide down that wire? What, in a dining chair?
“No, Bottomsly, I expect you to help the others first. And if you’re lucky, you’ll get to leave before this whole place falls down on your head like a rock!”
Maybe a little harsher than it needed to be said like, but it did need saying. I love how Sherbet gets to go first!
“All I need is money!”
Don’t we all at the moment, Hood. Care to share?
“Surely you have something up your sleeve?”
“Actually I do. Brains said something about cufflinks.”
And probably should have finished explaining about them.
“He put a laser up my sleeve!”
That could have gone very wrong.
Tumblr media
“Hang tight, I’m coming to get ya’.”
Did Scott forget to say that he meant that literally?
“John! No!”
“I got you, party boy.”
Kind of you to save your brother from possible death.
“Thanks, Scott. Just put me down anywhere. Anywhere but here!”
I love how John was desperate enough to try and climb away! That was a little mean of Scott to try it though.
“Much happreciation for fishing FAB hOne hout hof the sea.”
I love Parker’s priorities! In fact, there might be a fanfiction coming based of this. Stay tuned.
“I’ve been sent dozens of messages inviting the mysterious hero to parties everywhere. Shall I forward them?”
To Gordon, maybe?
“It’s a chance to see the world.”
“Thanks, but the world looks just fine from Thunderbird Five.”
Couldn’t agree more. I’d love to hace that view.

Feather J. Fern
1. What did you like about the beginning of the comic? I like how it seems lighthearted at first, but knowing Artem it's going to drop the ball on us really soon haha.(edited)
Also I always love how the backgrounds are, they look great.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Hahah, it's a shame I didn't get one more update up XD Thank you so much, Feather~!
snuffysam (Super Galaxy Knights)
well, the CTP is gonna run for the rest of the week...
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
I can't finish the next 8 pages by then XD
My guess is they'll be up the week after next
RebelVampire
For the beginning, I'm with Feather and I like how quickly the comic transitions from just lalala happy school to oh wait there's weird shit going on. I really like stories where the status quo is quickly ripped out from under your feet. My favorite moment in the comic so far is probably the most recent scene when we get to see Lyall's apartment and ya know, Claire starts dropping all these bombshells on us. The scene is the epitome of "Well that escalated quickly" and its just loaded with so much info to unpack. My favorite character right now is Claire. One because she seems the most sensible and mysterious, and two because I love Claire's hair so much and I'm so jealous and want such floof beautiful hair. ;3; As for characters I like see interacting the most, probably Claire and Lyall and they have some really good banter and a relationship, insofar, that's just kind of hilarious in its brutal honesty. A close second for me is Claire and Tasha as it quickly switches from happy smiles to probably most likely to have a catfight in the hallway.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Catfight in the hallway, lolol. Makes me want to draw them dressed like cat girls XD
RebelVampire
No not that sort of catfight
probably
O_O
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
comic turns into a catgirl fetish comic
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
1. I like how the first word is Zenchav which was the title of the comic this is a hard reboot of XD 2. My favorite moment was Lyall sticking his hands up Damon's shirt XD I really like how it was drawn and it's the most Lyall thing ever to do. 3. My favorite character overall is Damon, although it's probably Lyall at this point in the story. But I like them all of course XD 4. Damon and anybody, lol. I like when I get to draw him XD 5. I've been trying out a new shading style with this since I almost exclusively just hard shaded before, so it's nice to be branching out a bit and trying some new things. The Intro page is probably my favorite atm.
snuffysam (Super Galaxy Knights)
Theory: Lyall sticking his cold hands up Damon's shirt is how he drains Damon's energy, because secretly he's the witch.
mariah (rainy day dreams)
Oh no! XD that would be a twist!
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Oh snap!
mathtans
Hmmm, so we ship Claire and Tasha then?
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
I don't not ship Tasha and Claire >v>
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Drew that picture of them
RebelVampire
We should indeed all suspect Lyall. I mean no parents, lives alone, yet somehow affords everything? That's witchery.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
How does he afford all that stuff
does he sell drugs on the side or something XD it is suspicious
mathtans
1. I'll mostly echo everyone else here in terms of the start seems pretty straightforward and makes one wonder how the teaser page fits into it all. I'll add a remark on the subtle details of world building, like you've got your digital alarm... and dude straight up has a TAIL, and it's like, no comment, that's normal too.
2. Favourite moment was probably recruiting Claire into the cosplay skit. It's like, hello new person, oh you want to associate with us? Then you need the proper accessories, and Claire's all 'Um, I'm not sure... prop weapons? Uh, okay then...' Cosplay is a force to be reckoned with. (nods)
3. Fave character... yeah, may have to echo Rebel here and go with Claire. Possibly because she's the first chapter name, and like the reader is coming into this new situation, so can get behind her trying to figure it out... but also because I'm big on the time/space bureau stuff and that sounds like a cool job to get.
Damon has a cool cane and has the mysterious ailment afflicting his cosplay though, so he's my fave guy at the moment. (Werewolf blood? Moon thing? Dunno.)
4. I honestly do like the Tasha/Claire interactions the most, because each of them seems to have something to hide, and so you're kind of wondering if and when one of them might slip up. The other girl interrupting with the paint was classic, and I felt it helped break tension. The ship picture (which I imagine won't show in the log) is kind of representative of that with the chessboard too, like they're making moves against the other (though I'm not yet convinced that one is a witch, could be a setup).
Of course, I'm very biased towards the yuri, so grain of salt for my opinions and all. And while the ship was a humour comment at first, I think I'm more into it after seeing a "catfight" could play out.
All that said, the Lyall/Damon interactions are equally good. Lyall's perversion sometimes saying the quiet part out loud.
5. I recognize the art style, have read some of the work before (under different name). Always find the hair impressive, like here you get the impression of each individual strand except that's not actually what's drawn... you can still see the neat ears, Claire having some strands that fall in front of her too. The shading is really good too, like definitely shades of grey, not just black and white.
Kind of echoing the author there, but I can see it.
I'm so bad with themes and need to charge computer, will be back later. o.o
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
I love all this input Math, thank you ;3;/
RebelVampire
@mathtans You have no idea how happy I am that someone noticed the tail that nobody seemed to comment on.
RebelVampire
What I like about the art is how clean and crisp everything is cause mmmm that sexy lineart you can just paint bucket when needed. <3 I like that the comic explores the idea of having someone you've known your entire life possibly be evil. Cause it opens up a lot of questions. Like should you doubt? Should you trust? And at which point have you hit the point of betrayal? So I'm glad we'll get to see a bit of this tackled as Lyall and Claire look for evidence. As for the overall story, I like that there's just lots of questions going on. It's a theorists dream. But I find the more mysteries a comic has, the more engaging it is. Because even when you know the answer, it's interesting everytime to see the characters reach that answer. As for the comic's strengths, see the above and the art. It's super pretty and clean to look at, has some fantastic emotive faces during the more comedic moments, and there's just lots to theorize and look forward too. ;3;
Now I will proceed to weep as someone who beta read the script and actually can't theorize cause I just know .
mathtans
Others may have noticed but not been sure what to say? (Does the tail turn into the cane?)
6. Ok, themes... could be a theme of belonging in there. Like Claire being accepted into the group, like Lyall wondering if she's only talking to him to get to Damon, that sort of thing? Then there's the idea Rebel raised of thinking you know someone but not necessarily knowing them.
Of course, there's also credibility, like maybe Claire is simply an escaped mental patient with really good hacking skills to get herself in the school and apartment. Because that's quite the tale she spins. (Though Lyall had heard of the organization? Or he's pranking her, bit hard to know for sure.)
7/8. The story's been setting up a number of things in the background, I feel. Which can be a strength, as we're learning more character items first. Though Claire's latest revelation I'm really jazzed about, because the idea of time travel (times when demons weren't supposed to be) and personification (Earth as a female entity) are right up my alley. So that's cool.
Also Lyall apparently has a strange aura to go with Tasha's strange energy? Maybe the witch is jumping bodies. Maybe we should ship Lyall/Tasha.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Oh my gosh, loving these ideas!
I don't want to give spoilers but I think I'll answer the tail thing cause I never really meant for it to be a mystery It's just tucked into his pants when he's in public is all. That's why he's wearing the track suit for the school and not the standard school uniform, cause the pants are looser.
although it turning into the cane could have been hella cool(edited)
now I'm a little bummed I never thought of that
But the cane has other purposes
mathtans
I didn't really think it was a big mystery, and that explanation makes sense. (So I suppose it could be not normal, only normal for Damon's friends... demon prejudice otherwise?) Ok, so the cane is where he hides his stimulants to keep awake until the full moon.
Comic Tea Party
DISCUSSION PROMPTS – PART 2
9. What are your theories about Damon’s past? Why is he concerned about when the full moon is? Additionally, what do you think was meant about Damon and Xerfonos being the same age but not being twins?
10. Do you think Claire is right that Tasha is the witch Cadence? If so, how will she prove it? If not, who else could it be? Also, what might this all have to do with Tasha’s concern about Claire being the mysterious Draco’s student?
11. What do you think Cadence ultimately wants from Damon? Why would this compel the Earth, and by extension Apus, to protect him? Also, even if the characters find Cadence, can she actually be stopped?
12. Why do you think Lyall reacted so strangely to Claire mentioning Apus, and why do you think he’s so sure Apus wouldn’t care about protecting Damon? Do you think Lyall can trust Claire even for the long term?
Don’t feel inspired by the prompts? Feel free to discuss anything else that interested you!
mathtans
9. I mean, Damon seems to be a demon, but he's cool with being in our world, so... maybe he was born of a human/demon pairing? Or he was adopted by humans when he was a baby and simply given the same birthday as Xerfonos. I'm guessing the full moon has more significance than merely to werewolves (unless Damon needs to bite a werewolf to regain strength idk) and so it would help him.
I will say that initially the "same age" thing didn't phase me because there's more than 9 months in a year, plenty of time for having a second kid born in the same year. But now that I'm debating the adoption angle, maybe there's more to it.
They're not twins... they're TRIPLETS! Dun dun dun. Anyway.
snuffysam (Super Galaxy Knights)
they could also just not be twins due to a date technicality like one was born right before midnight and one was born right after
but yeah the adoption angle would explain a lot
mathtans
10. I don't think she's right about Tasha, or if she's right, not in the way she thinks. Because we've seen some from Tasha's perspective and she didn't seem to be the person in charge of whatever. In terms of proof, I guess she could see if Tasha would cosplay as a witch? And if the shoe fits? But yeah, maybe the witch is jumping between people like I mentioned earlier, or is not actually there yet, like APUS got the date wrong or something. Maybe Tasha's also trying to protect Damon from the witch (hence trying to give him that new name) but it's a rival organization?
I mean, technically still twins in that case, just not having the same birthday. (If Feb 29th enters into it, it gets even weirder.)
Actually, why wouldn't Claire use Damon's given name? Maybe her organization doesn't know everything it thinks it does?
Anyway, just had time for some random thoughts. Back later tonight.
mathtans
11. Cadence may just want him to keep living so that she can keep siphoning off energy. (Thus perhaps APUS wants him dead, it's not about protection?!) Or maybe Cadence wants a sweet cosplay. (Probably not.) Of course, it might be that if she's a free floating witch, she wants his body. Maybe she can't be stopped, but could be redirected?
The Earth aspect is one I haven't really been able to figure out yet. (Are pavonis a type of pasta?) But maybe there's a destiny or something that Damon needs to fulfil first.
12. Lyall could have been pranking, but maybe he knows a different organization like that... or maybe that's the name of some mystery file on his computer that he hasn't been able to open because the Cadence inside him hasn't revealed the password, oooh. I think Lyall can trust Claire (assuming she's not a raving lunatic) and she might even need him to provide better cover (she didn't seem to even know what apartment she was in)... but that's short term. Long term is another question, if she starts getting Apus directives saying to do things he wouldn't agree with.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
This is all so interesting ;3;
Pavonis as a type of pasta, lolol
mathtans
I'm glad it's more interesting than rambly.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Nah, I love it XD I'm afraid I'd give spoilers if I said anymore lmao
RebelVampire
My theories about Damon's past are that he's a werewolf. And that something about being a werewolf has changed how he ages compared to Xerfonos - thus why they're the same age but not twins. Granted I guess they could also just be half brothers who have a shared father who said, "Man I should knock two girls up at once." But werewolf sounds more interesting. No I think we've established Lyall is clearly the witch. He is too suspicious. Tasha probably is a super secret agent or something, hence the suspicion. Maybe Apus is into some shady shit that Tasha knows about, especially Draco, so she doesn't want them jumping in on everything. As for how proof, she won't. Cadence will reveal she's Lyall when the most damage can be caused and Claire will weep her career as a detective is through. Cadence might just think Damon is hot. Although I think Damon has a grand destiny ahead of him, and Cadence wants to interfere with that destiny while also bulking up on some of that tasty werewolf energy. Also, can Cadence be stopped? Probably. But definitely not by these chumps right now. XD Lyall reacted strangely cause that was the Cadence in him going oh shit and kind of taking over. And sure, Lyall can trust Claire to never figure out its him. Sorry Claire, you hot, but clearly aren't noticing some stuff.
mathtans
I hadn't considered the "same father different mothers" angle. O.o Maybe it was a sperm donation sort of thing though?
As to Claire, maybe Tasha will be nice enough to buy Claire ice cream and give her snuggles once she realizes the error of her ways.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Tasha and Claire will get to snuggling at some point I'm sure XD
The same father with different mothers sounds most probable
of what's been mentioned at least
mathtans
I mean, time travel could also be involved. What with Apus.
Maybe Claire is Damon's daughter and she's trying to protect her own existence.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Maybe Claire is Xerfonos' mother
Wait, I don't think that'd work out lmao
Daughter would be way more probable
Comic Tea Party
DISCUSSION PROMPTS – PART 3
13. What are you most looking forward to seeing in regards to the comic?
14. Any final words of encouragement for the comic?
Don’t feel inspired by the prompts? Feel free to discuss anything else that interested you!
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
I look forward to getting a bit further into the story XD it's still pretty early on atm and there's a lot of really good scenes later. I don't feel like we've really gotten to know Damon yet either
RebelVampire
I am looking forward to seeing people's theories as the story continues and pieces fall into place. It will be interesting to see the routes people take with the ideas of what the answers are going to be. My final words are just read the comic. O_O
mariah (rainy day dreams)
I didn't end up having any brain power to write responses over the week, but I really enjoyed Ring Spell. Damon and his brother are cuties, Claire seems very capable, and I can't wait to find out what Tasha's motives are. I'm real excited to see how the themes of magical marital vows come to the forefront :3
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Thank you~!
mathtans
Busy weekend was busy. Looking forward to seeing how the Apus thing fits in, like is Claire even from their time period? Will Lyall spill all the secrets? Will the ships happen? I'm so behind in all my reading but I've flagged it to check back when I can.
There was also the bit at the start implying knowing people from other lives, but the time travel possibilities make that weird. And I guess there's also the question of whether a Ring will have a Spell on it. Like, maybe the witch doesn't know she's the witch while she's wearing a ring? Or they have to get her to wear a ring? Here I am guessing again. ^^
14. To conclude, all the best with it, looks like a good setup. I do enjoy the art style too.
Also I guess congrats on being the finale CTP? Nice that you got it in there. Good initiative.
Artem Ficta (Ring Spell)
Thank you so much Math~!

My Own Prison
Bucky Barnes x Reader
Word Count: 3920
Author’s note: This was for @coffee-with-bucky‘s writing challenge! My prompt was: “I know who you are. You’re a softie under that tough exterior of yours.”  This is kinda pretty angsty. I had My Own Prison by Creed on repeat while writing this, although I did switch songs to For Blue Skies by Strays Don’t Sleep towards the end, in case anyone wants to listen. Hope y’all enjoy it and let me know what ya think! @marvelpoststuff thank you again for reading it over and for creating the photo edit for my fic! <3
Summary:  Bucky becomes distant during the trials of the crimes he committed as the Winter Soldier. 
Tumblr media
You suspected that Bucky would struggle somehow as the trials that would decide to either hold him accountable for his time as the Winter Soldier or exonerate him came, but in a typical Bucky fashion, he remained stoic. You kept a close eye on him, you knew his time in Wakanda healed some of the wounds HYDRA inflicted upon him, but you were worried that his nightmares would come back stronger than ever while having to face evidence of what HYDRA made him do. Nights you usually spent with Bucky you were now spending alone. He came to bed well after you’d fallen asleep waiting for him, and was out of bed before you’d wake. Tonight was another one of those nights. You were reading a book trying to wait up for him, but your eyes were starting to burn with the need to close them and sleep. Before you knew it, the next time you woke it was dawn and the suns rays were just beginning to kiss the New York City skyline. Your hand drifted to Buck’s side of the bed that was still a bit warm. A soft sigh escaped your lips before you decided to get up and face the day. You had hoped that since it was a Saturday you might have been able to wake up with him unlike the past two weekends since the trial had started. Having showered the night before you simply splashed some water on your face and brushed your teeth before throwing on a pair of leggings and one of Bucky’s long-sleeve shirts. You begin to sluggishly walk to the kitchen knowing Bucky has probably already left the house. You begin the process of making coffee before you realize that you are out of coffee grounds. Taking a deep breath, you decide to go to the grocery store since you had put it off to go to the trial this past couple of weeks. Writing Bucky a note that you leave on the counter for him to see, you slip on your shoes and grab your keys and head out.
An hour later you bring the groceries inside and putting them away. You finish making the coffee you had started this morning and you notice that Bucky still isn’t home yet. You curl up on the sofa with your cup of coffee on the coffee table and a book before draping a blanket over your lap. Mentally exhausted, it doesn’t take long before you’re asleep on the couch. Half an hour later, Bucky walks in, seeing your sleeping form with the book you were reading open in your lap. He knew you were worried about him, about how the trials would affect him. He would be the first to admit that you not only had every right to be worried, but that your worries weren’t unfounded. He had been avoiding you lately, and the guilt ate him up inside. However, the guilt of what he had done as the Winter Soldier was obliterating him. He felt as if he didn’t deserve you, and he was waiting for you to realize that, with every day that the trial dragged on, with every name and face that he had affected, he was waiting for you to look at him with disgust in your eyes and leave. He certainly wouldn’t have blamed you. That wasn’t the only reason he was avoiding you though, mainly at night. Every day that the trial went on the prosecutor would mention another name and show another face belonging to someone that no longer existed because of him, because of what HYDRA made him do as Steve would remind him. With that, his nightmares also returned. Even though it was unhealthy, and you would be sure to scold him the second you found out, he figured if he didn’t sleep, or slept as little as possible, he couldn’t have a nightmare. So he would work out for hours at night before he would go to sleep, climbing into bed long after you had passed out waiting for him, and he would wake up before you to workout, effectively tiring himself out enough that when he would sleep it would be deep enough that he wouldn’t be able to dream and wouldn’t wake you from his nightmares. Looking at you now he felt terrible for avoiding you, neglecting you. You showed up every single day of this trial to support him, and never complained that you went to bed and woke up without him. He knew this was taking its toll on you. You slept more often and seemed to only consume coffee with maybe one actual meal a day, Bucky had wanted to be strong for the both of you, but now he realized all he had managed to do was neglect you and isolate himself within his own mental prison. He decided he would shower before he’d make you something to eat for when you woke up.
You had taken one of the longest naps you had probably ever taken. The sun was low in the winter sky, eclipsed by the buildings. You stretched before smelling something cooking in the kitchen. You nearly panicked before you realized that you hadn’t started cooking anything before you had fallen asleep, and that meant that it must be Bucky cooking. You slowly got up and walked towards Bucky in the kitchen, he was humming something to himself that you didn’t recognize and stirring something in front of him. Wrapping your arms around his middle from behind, you rested your forehead against the center of his back between his shoulder blades. He tensed up for a millisecond before relaxing, but you had noticed the uncharacteristic action.
“Whatever your cooking smells delicious,” you say with a groggy voice before you clear your throat.
“Is that so? I made your favorite, broccoli cheese soup. The rolls are in the oven should be done in a few minutes.”
“Mmmm. Sounds good.” A smile is now plastered on your face. Maybe, just maybe, you have your Bucky back. You squeeze your arms around him to show your appreciation.
“Good. D’you wanna grab some bowls and stuff for us? I think the soup is done and I’m gonna take a look at the rolls.”
You nod your head yes against his back before letting go of him, immediately missing his warmth. He missed your arms wrapped around him just as quickly. Walking over to the cupboard you get out all the things you would need before leaning against the counter and looking at Bucky. You noted how his long-sleeved shirt was more snug on him than it had been before, his sweatpants were hung low on his waist, and his hair was pulled back into a bun against the nap of his neck. It felt like this was the first time you were seeing him in weeks, and in a way you were. The Bucky standing before you now was a much more honest version than the one you saw in court for the last few weeks. He pulled the rolls out of the oven and set them on the stove to cool before making his way over to you, it was now that you got a good look at his face. A straight on view. You could see the dark half-moon circles beneath his eyes. His hands gripped your waist and your hands rested on his chest. He looked into your eyes before glancing down at your lips and looking back into your eyes again. Bucky slowly lowered his lips to yours, nearly groaning at the feeling of your lips on his. His hands made their way from your waist to the back of your thighs. Tapping his hands on the back of them was your cue to jump and wrap them around his waist. He had been able to tell when his hands were at your waist that you had lost weight, but it still shocked him how much lighter you felt to him. He still found you as beautiful as the day he met you, but he felt even more guilt that you hadn’t been properly taking care of yourself. You were stressed out and worried about him. He poured as much love as he could into the kiss. He missed your touch, the way that it would make his heart race. He missed the taste of your chapstick on your lips, peppermint. He missed the scent of your body wash, something floral, but not overpowering, soft like you. He kissed you at that moment as if he were repenting for every single sin he had ever committed. He kissed you until you were both breathless. Your foreheads rested against each other as you gathered your breaths.
“The, uh, rolls are done.” Bucky is the first to speak, his voice a bit gravely.
You let out a chuckle before capturing his lips in one more kiss, a soft and sweet one.
“Join me? I’m not going to be able to eat that all by myself. We could watch a movie or something if you want.” You say hopefully, a little scared that he’ll bolt. You know this is usually the time he goes out for his run before heading into the gym a couple floors down in the tower. You can see that part of him wants to decline, but he steels himself for a split second.
“Yeah, go pick a movie and get it started, I’ll dish out dinner.” He spoke softly. You walked over to the stack of DVD’s and picked out one of the romantic comedies that you both loved before popping it into the DVD player. Bucky sat the plates that your bowls and rolls sat on onto the table before taking a seat on the couch. You sat down beside him before turning and setting your legs across his lap and tossing the blanket over the both of you. Bucky handed you your dinner before picking his up and you both ate in companionable silence while watching the movie. As the credits roll at the end of the movie you could see Bucky fighting sleep.You get up which seems to stir him from his half-asleep state and take his hands in yours to lead him to your shared bedroom. You go to the dressed and pull out your pyjamas and when you turn around you notice that he’s pulling out his gym clothes.
“Buck, what are you doing?” You ask him, a bit of exasperation leaking into your voice.
“Just gonna hit the gym for a little bit,” he says with his eyes to the floor. “Don’t wanna get soft on ya. Besides, I’ll be back before you can miss me.” He says as he shuts the bedroom door behind you. It isn’t until your front door closes that you release your thought to the now empty room..
“That’s the problem Bucky, I already do.” You feel your eyes begin to burn with tears that want to flow down your cheeks, releasing pent up frustration. The lump in your throat thick. You make your way to the bathroom and decide to take a long hot shower. You play music from your phone that matches your mood and turn on the bluetooth speaker before stepping into the steaming shower. Your tears finally break free and sobs begin to escape you. You know that Bucky is the kind of person to be strong for everyone else, to bottle up his emotions, but you couldn’t help but feel like you were failing him. Old insecurities were bubbling their way to the surface and you worried that you were being too clingy and pushing him away and that maybe he just needed space, or that he was falling out of love with you, but then you remembered that kiss from earlier. You knew these thoughts were illogical, but that didn’t stop them from making you freak out. When the water began to cool down you quickly washed your body and hair before getting out of the shower. You felt tired after letting out the pent-up-emotion. Instead of putting on the pajamas you had gotten out earlier you grabbed a fresh pair of panties and another shirt of Bucky’s before drying off and putting them on. You crawled into bed, and for the first time, you didn’t wait for Bucky to join you.
Bucky felt terrible when he left the bedroom he shared with you, but he also knew that if he didn’t go workout, especially after the accidental nap, he would be waking you with one of his nightmares and he couldn’t risk hurting you or stressing you out further because of them. So he headed a couple floors down in the tower to the gym. He made his way to the treadmill putting on his headphones and turning his music up. He ran twenty-five miles before he made his way over to the punching bag. With the skin on his knuckles broken like the punching bag in front of him, Bucky heads to the showers before making his way back upstairs. He lets the water run over his face and down his back as he moves his head forward. He quickly showers as he remembers the sound of your voice earlier. You were annoyed. You had every right to be. You deserved a man that would wrap you in his arms every night. A man that wasn’t still terrified of his own mind, of what he could potentially do to you when coming out of a nightmare. A man that would allow himself to be vulnerable with you like you were hoping he would be. With guilt and disappointment in himself, he gets out of the shower and gets dressed before making his way back to your shared apartment. He makes his way into the dark bedroom. He realizes that you didn’t even try waiting up for him this time. Tears threaten to spill as the salty water burns his eyes. He quietly makes his way to the dresser and pulls out his plaid pajama pants and changes into them before climbing into bed carefully not to wake you up.
You open your eyes confused as to what woke you up. You notice it is still dark out, no sign of dawn in sight and then you hear it. A whimper. You look towards Bucky’s side of the bed and see in the moonlight that his face is contorted in pain or fear. He’s gripping the sheets so tightly that his knuckles are white except for the spots of intense crimson where they had broken open earlier.
“No. No, no, no, no, no, no.” Bucky pleads to no one in the room. You quickly realize that he’s deep within a nightmare. You lay a gentle hand on his chest while keeping the rest of you to the side of him in case he bolted forward.
“Bucky. Bucky, baby, wake up.” You say to him gently, but loud enough to try and rouse him. Except he lets out a guttural scream that makes you jump a little from the unexpectedness of it. It had never got this bad before. The scream he let out was so loud you were a little worried that Steve heard it from his floor above you. Even though you know that it was probably ill-advised, you moved so that you had a leg on either side of Bucky’s hips. Both hands lightly on his chest to steady yourself you move them to his upper arms, gripping them just enough that if he moved you wouldn’t go flying anywhere but he could still move.
“Bucky, c’mon, c'mon wake up for me. Please!” You receive no response but his head continues moving back and forth.
“James!” You nearly shout.
At this he bolts forward. His metal hand around your throat. His eyes scan the room before he really comes to. He gasps as he realizes his hand is around your throat because you had tried to wake him from a bad night terror. He scrambles backwards his eyes wide and his chest is rapidly rising and falling.
You give him a minute to collect himself before you reach out to him. You see him flinch as if your touch would burn him and you stop for a minute and switch tactics.
“You didn’t hurt me.” You speak softly. I see him close his eye tightly before he speaks.
“I had my hand wrapped around your throat.” He takes deep breaths to calm himself, whether it’s from the night terror still or from annoyance at your comment, you have no idea.
You look him over and see that his knuckles were bleeding. With a sigh, you get up from the foot of the bed and stand in front of him before brushing your fingers against his. His eyes shoot wide open, but he doesn’t move.
“Let me clean up your knuckles at least. Please.” You plead him, your fingertips just a hair above his, aching to be laced within his. He gulps before nodding his head. You move your way towards the bathroom, Bucky following behind you. You have Bucky lean against the bathroom sink as you grab the first aid kit from the cupboard and move to stand with his right leg between yours. You pull out an antiseptic wipe and begin dabbing at his knuckles. Bucky hisses from the sting at the first contact.
“Sorry,” you say, barely above a whisper.
“S’okay,” he mutters in return.
You continue cleaning his knuckles until the wipe is a pale pink color and his knuckles are clean. You grab some ointment from the first aid kit and carefully dab it onto the broken skin before you bandage his knuckles so the ointment doesn’t get all over the place. You then wrap your arms around him and lay your head directly over his heart, listening to the steady thump.
“I don’t deserve you,” Buck, mumbles, almost quietly enough for you not to hear him.
“What?” You say shocked taking a step back, your hands remaining on his waist, and your eyebrows scrunched together in confusion.
“I don’t deserve you. I’m a monster. I could have accidentally killed you tonight.”
“You wouldn’t though.”
“God, you don’t know that for sure (Y/N)! I couldn’t live with myself if I hurt you, let alone get you killed because I can’t keep my shit together.”
“You wouldn’t hurt me. HYDRA made you hurt innocent people, but it wasn’t you because if you had a choice in the matter you would have told them to get bent. Besides, I knew that it probably wasn’t the best idea of how to wake you up but I couldn’t stand hearing you in pain like that.”
“But it was me!”
“Would you think that if it were me in your position and you in mine?”
“Wha- no!”
“Then why is it any different for you? If it was you, then nothing would have changed after you were out from under their control. If it were you, Steve wouldn’t be alive right now. If it were you, I would be dead right now and we wouldn’t be having this conversation. It was not you.” You had stepped closer to him and you could feel his breath across your face. You stared straight into his ocean blue eyes that were beginning to brim with tears.
“I just keep waiting for the moment that you see me as a monster like they do, as I do. The moment that you’ll wisen up and leave for your own safety. I’m terrified to lose you, Doll, and every day I just keep seeing more victims that are dead from my hands. A-and you see it, the pictures and videos, and you listen to the details, and I don’t understand why you stay. I knew that I’d probably get nightmares from it all again so I started going to bed late, getting up early, and working out because if I’m too tired to dream then you wouldn’t have to deal with that at least. But then I noticed that you’re hardly eating from all the stress of the case and trying to take care of me and I felt terrible for that. Then I would feel even more terrible because you would try and wait up for me every night, but you’d fall asleep before I’d get to bed because you were so tired. And, God, I missed you. I missed holding you, the smell of your shampoo, your lips on mine, but I just felt like I didn’t deserve it, and God, I’m just so sorry for hurting you. I never wanted to hurt you.” Bucky says breathless breaking down into sobs. You wrap your arms tightly around him as if you could hold the broken pieces of him together. Rubbing your hand up and down his back trying to do anything soothing to help him.
“It’s okay, baby, I forgive you. I know you never meant to hurt me. You would never intentionally hurt me. I love you. I love you so much. Nothing some dumb prosecutor says is gonna change that, okay? They could present all the evidence in the world, but I know the kind of person you are Bucky. I know who you are. You’re a softie under that tough exterior of yours. I’m in this for the long haul, and I knew what I was getting into when we started this. I’m not gonna run at the first sign of trouble, but I do think we need to talk a bit more about the things that worry us. I was stressed, and I was stressed because I was worried about you. I was worried whether you would start having nightmares again, and then I was worried that I never saw you. I should have handled the stress a bit better than I did though. I knew that I should have stopped replacing meals with coffee, I just elected to ignore it, and that was my bad. And I missed you too. That’s why I tried waiting up for you. Bucky, you deserve the world. I don’t know a single person that would make it through what you’ve been through. You have. Healing isn’t linear though, you’re gonna have bad days, but you’ve gotta let me in a little bit on those bad days, okay? Even if it’s just saying that it’s a bad day. ‘Cause I wanna be here for you through all of it. I love you, Bucky Barnes. I love you so much, and we’re gonna get through this together, but if you need to hear right now, then I forgive you.”
At your speech, Bucky pulls you down to the bathroom floor and you cry in each other’s arms. You both sit there for about an hour whispering “I love you’s” to each other, occasionally kissing each other, soft and sweet. You both stay there until your tears begin to dry up, both of your faces blotchy, and your eyes bloodshot from the sudden onslaught of sobs and pent up emotion trying to remain strong for the other. Eventually, you start to shiver from the cold bathroom floor, and with ease, Bucky picks you up bridal style and carries you to the bed where he holds you through the night. You never have to wait up for him to go to bed after that.

22/11
I was tagged by @joyful-soul-collector​ (thank you this is possibly one of my favourite tag games) ... Okay also also before I could finish this up, @hyba also tagged me so uh it’s 22/11 instead, ty ty. You two might want to check the tag list cause uhhh you might be there who knows not me c:
The rules are: Answer the 11 (22 this time but hush) questions, make up your own 11 and then tag... I think it’s 11 people but I don’t know 11 people who I haven’t already tagged so...
I sort of started spamming pictures to answer a question so I’m gonna... put the pictures under the cut. 
1. Have any of your OCs ever stolen something? What did they steal, and why? Oh yeah sure - the first one I can think of easily is Cain. He used to live on the streets so had to steal to survive. But he’d also work for money. He’s not heartless, just desperate. 
Also now I’m thinking about it, Tag would definitely be the kind of guy to just... hey I know I’m meant to hand this gear in but... no-one will miss it so.... he steals to amuse himself with the gadgets he gets. 
2. Did you ever have imaginary friends as a kid? What were they like? I copied my sister in having pretend animal friends, but not really. Who needs imaginary friends when you have real-life ones lol I was a lot more liked as a kid.
3. Do any of your  OCs have a favorite article of clothing? Why is it their favorite?
Uhhhh
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Um.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yeah, you could say that. 
Andy likes his hoodie because it’s a thing that is only his. He didn’t get it from Murdock, I honestly don’t know WHERE he got it from, but it’s his, and the fact he owns anything means a lot to him.
Cain likes his because it’s one of the few things left over from when he was younger and again, it’s his. He didn’t steal it. It belongs to Only Him. He feels comfortable in it. 
4. What do you fist develop about a character when you make one up? Do you think of their appearance first? Their personality? Their backstory?
Honestly? It depends. Backstory always comes after, but personality and appearance often intersect. I know for WIP 3 I thought of personality and traits first, and for Collateral it was appearance first. I think for Sonder it was more.. their role in the story? ‘Oh hey this is the antagonist, this is the protagonist, this is the love interest wait I hate romance, okay, side kick’ etc
5. Fluff or Angst?
If it’s not romantic? Fluff. I made myself angsty enough when I was younger, I want more happiness in my life.
6. Remember the color of that dress that everyone was debating about however many years ago? The one that was blue and black, or white and gold? What colors did you see?
The correct colours.
7. Pick your bubbliest, happiest OC. Now tell me what will make them turn into your worst nightmare. I wanna see what makes them the angriest.
Oh boy, let’s see uhhh... Tag. Tag from WIP 3 who is undergoing the process of a name change. 
Seeing someone he loves die would twist him. Being isolated would eventually break him. Being unable to do what he loves would definitely upset him also. 
Also idk if you’ve heard about it but in his world, there’s a nifty ability called being a silvertongue and I know at least one silvertongue is not gonna exploit this but I also know of another who would even on this19-year-old kid so maybe it’s not by choice but that could make him a nightmare. Just sayin’
8. Now pick your angstiest, most emo OC. And tell me what would make them blush and giggle like an idiot. I wanna see what makes them the happiest.
Okay for this one it’s a tie I write a lot of angsty characters. 
>Andy - seeing something just. Really funny. Oh did Sam just fall over in a ridiculous way? Fantastic. That’s actually how they first have a proper conversation. Sam falls over, he laughs, they talk.
>Cain - anything awesome that Duck does. Oh hey what’s up Goose oh you drew this radical picture? /tearing up/ it’s so great oh my gosh you’re so talented. That’s more being happy than giggling but can you see Cain giggling? No, me neither. 
9. If you could have any mythical creature for a pet, what would it be?
Dragon, next question.
10. What’s your go-to thing for when you’re hungry but don’t have time/energy to cook something?
Fruit! It is! Very good! And tasty! Apples have a good cronch! Oranges are mmmm juicy. Banana? Yes nice thank you. Oh wow we have strawberries? What a sweet treat. Also healthy!
11. Do any of your OCs have scars? Would they be confident enough to show them in public (like at the beach)?
Oh yeah sure man. Andy’s got multiple from... ‘training’. He doesn't show them off. Cain, Duck and Theo have all been badly burnt on the arms, and Cain ‘’shows it off’’ just because it makes him uncomfortable to have his arms covered. And uh Raya probably has some sort of scar on her knees or elbow from rollerblading. Because you do fall over and it does scar.
And now for Hyba’s questions, lez go bois
1. What cultural value do you see in writing/reading/storytelling/etc.?
I think that without storytelling specifically, humans would be so... mundane? We’d be no different to any other animal on the planet. Creating anything, be that stories or art or literally anything is so... human. To take that away would be like taking away humanities soul. The cultural value isn’t really measurable - storytelling makes up the culture. 
2. Do you try more to be original or to deliver to readers what they want?
Honestly, I have no idea. I try to entertain myself, and if other people like it too, then that’s neat. But because I’m writing for myself, I anticipate everything, so I don’t know if it’s original or not. I know it delivers what I want! But is that readers want? Who knows!
3. As a writer, what would you choose as your mascot/avatar/spirit animal?
Crow. Not even as a writer, just... dude crows are so damn cool. 
4.  What do you think most characterizes your writing?
I’m not quite sure about the phrasing so uhhhh represents? Google is telling me ‘describes’. 
In which case, a midnight fever jolting you out of bed, moments before you could fall asleep, and puppeting you to a writing surface so you can splurge ideas onto it sounds about right. 66% of my WIPs have elements in them that were based on dreams. 
5. How do you select the names of your characters?
Mostly? Spite. ‘Oh Trade, you can’t have a bad guy named Andy, all Andy’s are good’ NOPE NOT ANYMORE SUCK IT. I also have a friend who is really good at coming up with names that fit the exact mood of the character so I go to her a lot. Sometimes they’re puns. 
6. Choose one of your OCs (or more). How would they want to be seen by others?
Sam from Sonder wants to be seen as someone people can talk to, but also someone who pursues a science because yes sociology is a science to her, shut up, don’t talk to me if you’re going to mention the words ‘paradigm’ or ‘objective’ thank you.
7. How do you find or make time to write? Are you consistent or do you write whenever you get the chance?
Hahahahahhahha.
In the past few months, I’ve not been writing because I’ve had exams. Before that, I wrote at every chance I had - being a student, I had a fair bit of free time during the day, so I’d use that to write. But for a while, it was a nothing on the ‘what has Trade written recently’ chart. 
Going up again boiiis
8. What does literary success look like to you? Is it important for you as a writer?
Literary success? That’s... a very interesting question. I think I’d be satisfied and feel successful if one person told me that my book helped them through something. 
Jokes on me, I’ve already had that, my books helped me, I have already succeeded, see you losers in hell.
Also fanart but uh who needs fanart when you draw enough for five armies?
9. Are there any scenes that you’ve had to edit out of your WIPs? Can you tell us about them if they don’t spoil the book?
YES oh lord yes okay so in Sonder, chapter 15, I decided around draft 2 that I wanted a scene where Atlas got drunk. I made up reasons for it, asked lots of friends about what it was like to be drunk (as I personally have never been drunk), attended parties to get first-hand research and did so much preparation. 
Wrote the scene, was pleased with it, left it to fester. Two years and two drafts later (now), I’ve come back and realised oh hey that scene is utterly useless and de-rails the plot. Time to remove it I guess. 
I rationalise it as ‘well you wrote it and you had fun but it’s not needed, move on’ and that works well for me. 
10. Would you feel comfortable publishing or sharing your writing using your real name, or would you prefer a pseudonym?
Pseudonym 100%. As cool as it would be to be able to go ‘hey I wrote this’ to people, the terrifying ordeal of being known is horrific, and people being able to track all my past activity from when I was literally seven is my worst nightmare. I wouldn’t even tell family or friends if I could get away with it. 
‘Hey [real name], there’s a book at Waterstones called Sonder? With the exact same characters, plot and writing style as you have? But it’s under [pseudonym]?’ ‘oh hey, really that’s wild. Anyway,’
11. When writing, do you try more to be original or do you prefer to deliver to readers what they want? Do you think that a book can do both? Which is more important to you as a writer?
Oh hey, this is like question two but MORE. Standing by my previous answer, I think a book can do both - people want a happy ending, usually, but you can always be original in how you do that. No two stories can be told in exactly the same way. And hey - even if people do guess what’s coming up, that’s good. 
As a writer? It’s most important to entertain. I don’t try and catch people out, I just deliver the story I have in my head and then edit it mercilessly until I’m pleased. 
Questions!
1) Design a mask for an OC to wear. Would it cover their whole face? Is it a mascarade mask? Is it fancy or simple? Bonus cool kid points if you draw it.
2) Which OCs like spicy food?
3) Which OCs can take care of a plant - an orchid, to be exact? 
4) Do you tell stories in any other medium beyond writing? eg: art or roleplay or...? 
5) Do you have any irl items that you have because ‘oh dude this is something that’d totally be in my story’? Can I see them?
6) What’s the first book you remember buying? 
7) Do you have any weird collections of things? As an example, I have a skull collection and a collection of... what’s best described as doll body parts. Anything just... weird that you have a lot of? Can I see it? 
8) Which OC gets distracted by watching birds and which OC is like ‘dude stop watching the birds we’ve got STUFF TO DO’
9) Have you ever met a published author? Who? 
10) Are you a person who likes tea or are you a person who prefers coffee? If the latter - dude c’mon tea is so much better smh
11) Have you backed up your files recently? Do it now. Please, for the love of god, back up your files.

Who Are You Trying To Fool?
Summary: A perfect chance at messing with new recruits presents itself to Bucky. Can he pull it off or will you foil his plan? 
A/N:  Thanks a ton to the lovely @sighodinson who helped me edit this fic with amazing comments and suggestions! I hope you guys enjoy it. I have a couple of writing challenges that I joined and I’m on break from school so I'll get working on those soon. I’m so excited lol. Thanks, as always, for taking the time to read my stories. I appreciate all of you guys! 
Tumblr media
“Take it down a notch,” Bucky heard Sam say quietly, causing him to smile. Bucky turned a bit to make sure no one could see. 
When Sam had asked Bucky that morning to check out how the newly recruited agents were working, he never expected it to be so fun. He had left your side at the breakfast table with a pout on his lips knowing your time together had been cut short by Sam.
As soon as the group saw Bucky walk in with Sam, he felt all the air leave the room and saw their faces turn pale. Steve had eventually joined them in order to motivate the group of young recruits with one of his uplifting and motivating speeches.
Bucky was well aware of the reputation that preceded him. He had, after all, been the infamous Winter Soldier. Their reaction was something he had learned to expect.
Usually, he would go out of his way to show people how different he was from that persona Hydra had forced onto him. He wasn’t trying to be mean, they had just given him a perfect opportunity to mess with them a little like his superiors had often done with soldiers during training.
He tried his best to look unimpressed with everything the recruits were doing. The more his face remained unchanged, the more he saw them trying to get a reaction out of him. They were currently sparring and showing off  all their best moves. He couldn’t lie to himself, he was actually very impressed.
“Come on, Bucky,” Steve said. “Show them a little emotion. They’re practically begging you for a reaction.”
“Where’s the fun in that?” Bucky responded.
“You’re just messing with them,” Steve said with a smile. “You know they’re amazing.
“Maybe a little,” Bucky admitted. “But I mean, come on! They basically handed me the perfect chance to mess with them. They just assumed I would be unimpressed, you should’ve seen their faces when I walked in with Sam. What kind of superior would I be if I didn’t have a little bit of fun with them?”
“Superior? Don’t flatter yourself Barnes,” Sam said as he laughed. “You’re just a guest here.”
“Exactly!” Bucky said. “I was going to act like just a guest but then their whole demeanor changed as soon as I walked in. I won’t take it too far, guys, let them just think I’m unimpressed.”
So, Bucky continued displaying his best unimpressed face. His resting face, he had heard, was not the friendliest, so he used that to his advantage.
The recruits kept looking at him after every sparring session in the hopes of a change, but they were always disappointed.
“Alright! You guys did great!” Sam yelled out. “Take five and we’ll continue after that.”
“Excellent work guys,” Steve added.
The recruits turned to Bucky who simply stared back at them.
“Be back here in five,” Sam said with a laugh. “Maybe then, this guy will know how to emote.”
As the recruits began to walk away he heard Sam say, “You’re scaring them.”
Bucky couldn’t hold back his laugh at that.
“I’m just teasing. Kind of like when they ignore a baseball player after their first homer. It’s called the silent treatment, look it up Wilson.”
“How long does this silent treatment of yours go for?” Steve asked, “We don’t want to discourage them.”
“No, of course not! I’ll share everything I think of them in a minute.”
As the recruits walked back in, Bucky’s face went back to being unimpressed and he had meant to hold that face for a bit longer but then he saw you walk in and he knew he was screwed.
No way could he keep a straight face around you.
You looked around the room and your eyes stopped scanning when you spotted the three Avengers.
As you began to approach them, he felt a smile tug at his lips. God, he was so in love with you.
“Hey guys,” you said with a smile once you reached them.
“Hey,” all three of them greeted you.
“Steve? We kind of need you upstairs,” you continued. “Fury just sent in some intel. Needs you to take a look at it.”
“Sure thing. Thanks Y/N. You know, FRIDAY could’ve let me know,” Steve said with a smile.
Bucky knew what that smile meant.
The whole team had been happy for you two when you had finally become official, but Steve had been over the moon. Kept saying how perfect the two of you were for each other, as if Bucky needed any reminders of something he was fully aware of.
“I know,” you blushed. “Just thought an in-person message would be nicer, though” you said as you looked over to Bucky who was still trying to hold back his smile.
The recruits had noticed who had walked in and were currently observing the former Winter Soldier. Bucky knew they had probably heard of the very obvious romance brewing between him and you.
“Okay,” Steve laughed. “I’ll catch you guys later.”
Before he left, he spoke to the recruits and Bucky overheard him reminding them of the great job they had done.
After Steve walked out, Sam also walked towards them in order to resume the training. Bucky tried to make out what he was saying, and he was almost convinced he had heard Sam tell the recruits to ‘watch this. It’s gonna be good!”
“Everything alright?’ you asked as you took a step closer to Bucky. Oh man, he was a goner now!
“Yeah,” Bucky said, feeling the eyes of the recruits on you two.
“You sure, bub? You seem mad.”
If he cracked now he knew it would result in teasing from Sam and the recruits, but he couldn’t have his girl thinking he was in any way mad at her.
“Yeah, everything is fine. I’m just teasing the recruits a bit.”
“Are you trying to intimidate them with your serious face?” you asked as a laugh began to bubble up.
“A little.”
“Bucky, that’s mean!”
“They started it!” he said trying not to break his attempt at the “silent treatment”. “I walked in here and they just assumed.”
“Oh, come on, Buck! They probably look up to you. Show them a little smile. I’ve seen these guys, they’re amazing.”
“I’m in too deep now, doll. If I crack, Sam will definitely turn them against me.”
He saw you turn around to look at the group that had begun to run laps and he just knew this wasn’t going to end well for him.
“Bucky come on, just a little smile,” you said as you took yet another step towards him, closing the already short distance between the two of you even more.
“Y/N, that’s not fair” he said as he felt himself beginning to crack under your loving gaze and proximity. You took another step closer to him.
“You’re not being fair, Buck. Those poor recruits are probably giving you their all and you’re not even looking their way,” you said as you took the last step to be right in front of him.
“That’s only because you’re so close to me, darling. Can’t look anywhere but you,” he replied as his arms instinctively wrapped around your waist.
“Mmmm, can’t believe you when you say it with that face. You’re the softest guy I’ve ever met. Who are you trying to fool?”
He couldn’t stop the smile spreading on his lips at that. He was completely in love with you and he could never resist your voice. Everything about you drove him crazy. He would probably never understand how he got so lucky with you, but you never let him doubt your love for him.
“There you are you big goofball,” you said as he saw you look over his face, taking in his smile.
“My reputation is now ruined,” he said with a laugh as he joked. “Now these guys will never respect me.”
As he uttered those words he heard Sam begin to holler and whoop.
“See! I told you guys he was a giant softy!” he said to the recruits who had begun to laugh. “Never let him forget this day!”
“Sorry,” you said as you pressed a quick kiss to his cheek. “But you kind of earned it.”
“Yeah, yeah,” Bucky replied.
“I gotta go back up, but have fun with the rest of the training!” you teased as you began to leave.
Bucky laughed as he saw you walk away and stop to high five the recruits as they passed by. He would surely be teased, but who could blame him for melting at having his girlfriend so close to him?
He absolutely loved you so a little teasing was fine if it meant he got to see you smile.

I did a list thingy, because I love so many Spyro Reignited redesigns and I Can’t Help loving them xD Can’t stop won’t stop. So while my head still tries to work and function to get over its low state and start to actually grip on the actual things, I’m just doodling whatever I can honestly just to stay alive or something
So here’s the thing, I grabbed 16 of my favourite dragons, already drew 2 of them, one is finished and one only lacks shading, and am probably gonna doodle the other 14 as well just because I looooove them so much <3 Buuuut, well, as you know, narrowing a list of 70+ dragons to only so many isn’t easy. Heck, look, I failed to make it a top 10 or even 15 so here we are. I had almost 30 dragons in the end that I put in order. The first 7 were preeetty easy, a couple fought over and around places, but the’re pretty solid. After that, I knew who I wanted in there but just didn’t know which order would be the best for them, so they’re kinda sorta a mix and match messy pile here and there xD Oops. But ya’ll wanna hear some thoughts on your favourite dragons, right? And the fact that I might have just barely missed on having them on the list, like, there’s so many good ones, even more than I got here, but hey, at least there’s some honorable mentions I can give a word on here :2 Alphabetical order because yeet
Alban - Let's have a small bit from my childhood. I dunno if it was like a rumor that someone told me or that I made up myself, but as a kid I was all like, this dude, this is Spyro's dad. I thiiiiiiiink it was because someone told me that he's the only other purple dragon in the game, so he Has To Be Spyro's dad. Dunno, just a fun little thing xD But I do like his design, he looks kinda aquatic and I like his voice and attitude "Oh yeah, they ain't going to be a problem to Me" Dude, you got caught, think again or are you writing some edition of the story where you're the hero~? (Or are you just acting because you don't want to seem like the lesser person when your son saves you? HMmmmmm Ok ok enough of that xD )
Bubba - Now here's a character xD He's a funny dude, very excited to say the least. Funky, I like him
Claude - I like this dude, his voice is greatttt and just, I remember the "and it really Stings" bit like so freaking well and I love his expression during it. Also that staff thing he does at the end that I can't describe with words, he's just, like partly so done and has to think things over
Copano - Holy shiiiiiiiiiiit he's so cute and jittery as heck xD Too much caffeine for you buddy! But oh my god he's so freaking cute and soft looking you can't deny he's adorable!
Gavin -To be honest, he kinda Was on the list for a while x2 Just because, his design is dang nice, I love the tattoo stuff and I love the aesthetic of barista peeps, like, just, this nice and calm feeling, place where you can just chill, drink something nice and warm and just chill. His personality is funky too, but I decided to split the list at 16 and I just really want to draw number 16 so I'm sorry Gavinnnn
Lucas - Mister map wing~ I love his design, the globe between his horns, all the spinning stuff, his colors, his animation, voice is also nice. He's just. Nice all around. Though I think it's the Charizard like look and praise that lowers his score for me xD Oh shoot am I being a hipster? Marco is cool and all but mmmm..... I dunno, I like him (and I like Charizard, used to at least, childhood favourite) but I just feel I like the others a bit more than him, but he's definitely a well done character here
Magnus - Full of personality! Goddamn. His animation is top tier, voice might not b my favourite but goshdarn it he's just full of character~
Marco - Mostly because sleek designs, I love me some sleek designs, tall lanky goodie. But his voice isn't a favourite of mine and while the fact he has artificial wings is cool, just didn't make it on the list
Maximos - Honestly he reminds me of a mix of a pitbull and bullterrier, and just, something about him, he looks freaking cute. I like his voice and animation too. Who doesn't like some good tasty tasty well spiced food~? He's a good boy
Ragnar - Nice design, fitting voice, the smoke is a nice effect but all in all he's a bit bland in a way. Like the leaving animation is.... Nonexistent, he just stands there kinda? Mmmmmmm but hey, at least he looks nice?
Useni - This design, goddddddddd, he's so nice and kind and just, good energy man. Yes. Yessssssss~ And the bunny slippers xD He's just, very soft and good I cry

uhhh every 5th q for the ask meme?
:O
5) What was the first time you suspected you were transgender?
uhhh first time i remember was when I cut my hair off - for an SPN Lucifer cosplay of all things - and was like hell yeah I look like a dude! Radical! and then was like oh that is not a very CisThought™️
10) What have your experiences with packing or wearing breast forms been?
you know i bought a pretty expensive packer and it was waaay too large despite being one of the smaller ones of that model - this was apparently a problem a lot of guys had and their were videos on how to cut it to make it fit but it cost a lot and i was too worried about ruining it - anyway i moved house three and a half times in six months and my stuff is currently in between two houses and I have No Idea where it is and in the back of my mind there is the constant fear that someone will find that dick 
15) What labels have you used before you’ve settled on your current set?
i’ve used pretty much every label sexuality wise bc attraction is weird. gender wise i ided as a trans man until last yearish and now im just like im queer in all senses
20) What do you wish you could have shared with your younger self about being trans?
prooobably a lot of gender abolitionist stuff like meets past self and just holds a reading group of Nobody Passes by Matt Sycamore - like i hate the transmed/truscum view point but i see that a lot of it is pushed by 15 year old trans guys and the whole wanting to be cis/as close to cis as possible and you can have pride in being LGB but not in being trans thing is pretty much how i experienced gender until last year where i was like time to make the Conscious effort to rework my thoughts, i didnt end up in the dysphoria discourse largely bc it wasnt a big thing when i first realised i was trans (lmao no trans issues were big things at that point) - in general i’d want to get myself to work on a more intersectional approach in terms of understanding that the gender binary is a western colonialist construct and that capitalism pushes queerphobia by wanting to minamalise community reliance and further their profit by pushing a nuclear child producing way of structuring relationships - basically get little me to turn all that angst and anger @ the system
25) What do you wish cis people understood?
that they arent the end goal, i detest the view they have that trans people should be glad to be told that they look like a “”””real”””” women/man - also that they dont need to understand, i dont give a flying fuck if they dont get how someone can identify differently to their assigned gender/be nonbinary/have a gender that changes, just use the right pronouns and name and be ya’know a decent person - and! that they dont need to know what “makes” someone trans and that that line of thinking veers dangerously towards eugenics
30) Who is the transgender person who has influenced you the most?
ahhh good question - i realised i was trans in a pre Caitlyn Jenner pre Orange is the New Black era so a lot of it was just me figuring out shit on my own - which gotta say wasnt necessarily a bad thing bc more visibility has also lead to more bulshit
I would probably say Matt Sycamore - the first book i read that was edited by her was Why are Faggots so Afraid of Faggots and like the queer radicalism and like anarchy from that helped me figure out and voice some of my disquiet with queer assimilation stuff and also the big We Won the marriage campaign queer stuff is Done mood that was 2017 after Australia’s same sex marriage plebiscite. her book Nobody Passes which focuses purely on gender stuff also follows a similar vein and its very very good
35) How do you feel your gender interacts with your race, disability, class, weight, etc. from the perspective of intersectionality?
outside of queer stuff i fit into a pretty privileged life, defs gonna say class played a major noticeable role in being able to get hormones despite having to go through a whole court process (pretty sure the government being the Worst to baby me is what made me an anarchist) and get top surgery pretty quickly once out of high school, my whiteness also provides a certain protection when you see the much higher rates of violence at trans POC, and I'm also able to access queer events and spaces without having to consider accessibility etc
40) How did/do you manage waiting to transition?
mmmm honestly at the time it was the worst and looking back on it i am still very angry and bitter at both my school and, you know, the government in general
i did the whole im trans use the right name and pronouns @ the school people (with my parents there so they couldnt use that as an excuse) about nine months before they started doing so AND this was also after my parents flat out ignoring that I was trans for months before that and i did not uuhhh deal well with any of that mentally At All. my school was pretty much like yll be bullied we cant as if every kid i interacted with didnt already know - and when they eventually did it wasnt a big deal with kids - i only heard second hand about some shit that was said about me which gotta admit was kinda laughable bc i had people i barely knew tell me what people in my grade had said and i was like….dont know who that is but Okay - i was too out of the gossip loop to have anything to be upset about 😂 also i had two (2) teachers in the entire school that used the correct pronouns despite me fully out for near three years by the time i left school tho i didnt actually recognise how bad that was for me until i left high school and was like ???? dont want to die all the time ?? what is this
medically was also bulshit bc the australian system used to have anyone under 18 have to go through court to get HRT, it took me nearly three years and was incredibly fucked and even tho the laws been changed now i am still ready to throw down with whoever implemented it in the first place even tho their probably old and close to death themselves
ANYWAY in terms of providing a better answer than i didnt and was v sad and angry for a v long time - i surrounded myself with queer people, i ventured into the city for some youth queer groups, went to a camp purely for young queer people, read a lot of books about trans people etc 
Ask me questions ~

Dark Silence train of thought
Hi I am freaking out, how are you? these are my million mph thoughts if you’d like to read a huge fuckin brain dump, cool       
EDIT: this got very long I’m soRRY FJALKFD
Who was that really at the end with Anti??? was it Chase or Jack?? bc we heard a bunch of children’s voices, and still no true confirmation that Jack’s woken up from a coma yet
was this in real life or some kind of weird dimension? could it be a nightmare or a vision during a coma?
ANTI WHAT THE FUCK
if the glitch bitch does ANYTHING to Chase’s children i will immediately unstan him
FULL-BODY ANTI
what if there’s some weird fuckin twist where that somehow wasn’t actually Anti at the end?? rational thoughts are failing me so idk if that’s even possible but??? aaaAAHHHHh???
so light changes are a sign of Anti?
WHERE THE FUCK IS JACKIEBOY MAN IN THIS MESS
OR MARVIN
OR JJ ACTUALLY
THE FUCK
Jack’s acting is absolutely incredible and I want to hug that man for all of this. Signe’s camera work is beyond amazing and I would like to hug her too. Robin’s editing is fucking insane for this and sells the atmosphere better than anything I’ve ever seen for him being the only person working on it, and I want to hug that cube man as well.
im supposed to be studying calculus whoopsies
that aint gonna happen
“aint” has the same letters as “anti” oh my god
Is Anti currently going after Chase or Jack? or is he somehow able to go after both simultaneously?
THAT FUCKING LENS FLARE
I feel like a fool for writing out a theory last week about why Anti wouldn’t appear
Anti just came in and bitchslapped that shit outta here
I am deceased
Jack I fucking love/hate you right now
I am super glad that Mayhem2k18 is still officially happening and didn’t end on that depressing vid of Chase
it makes a lot of sense that pink/red colors are associated with Anti since that’s literaLLY THE INVERSE OF GREEN
THEY’RE GODDAMN OPPOSITES SO OF GODDAMN COURSE THEY’D HAVE OPPOSITE GODDAMN COLORS GODDAMNIT
why is Anti barefoot. just.... why
he’s gonna go slappin all over Jack’s floors
unless he has socks on to keep them lil feetsies warm
don’t want a cold demon boi with cold demon toesies
all of the frames from the glitches are either terrifying nightmare fuel or extremely derpy looking. there is no in-between.
fucking hell Robin just how long did this take to edit???
BLOOPERS
why doesn’t Anti have a cut on his neck? is this before Say Goodbye even happened? or can he heal from that?
what if it’s not Anti at all?
I already asked that earlier fuck
building off of earlier thoughts: what exactly do the children’s voices mean? are they Chase’s kids (it better fucking not be), or just a manifestation of Jack’s fears and he always hears when Anti’s around?
the whispers in this video were the same as the one’s from Stories Untold 4 so... we were seeing the nightmare he woke up from, then?
I hate whispering sounds apparently
not like... in an “oh no teh whisper are scawy DX” kinda way 
but i just.... mmmm nope, do not like
that better not be another fuckin auditory trigger, brain; you’ve made enough of those, we don’t need normal things like whispering to join them
SIGNE’S CINEMATOGRAPHY IS  👌 👌 👌 GODDAMN 
seriously without her helping out we wouldn’tve had NEARLY as amazing shots
...no offense Seán
but Signe is has an amazing eye for this stuff, you just worry about acting n shit, k?
i have rewatched the ending so many times now
WHY DOES .25 SPEED MAKE IT SO MUCH FUCKN CREEPIER JEEZ
THE HEAD THING = NOPE
Jack went from adorable giddy fanboy w/ Ryan Reynolds to absolute murder bean in a fuckin hurry
WHERE THE FUCK IS JACKIE? SERIOUSLY
Marvin/JJ/whoever the fuck is tryna wake up Jack can y’all hurry it up please
..but also don’t bc I love seeing freaky videos like this
so if we’re seeing Jack’s comatose nightmares, does that mean that Anti’s just a figment of his imagination
as in he’s never been real
will we ever get an expLANATION FOR MOTHERFUCKING OVERNIGHT WATCH
probably not
that’s the last time we saw Anti wasn’t it
damn
maybe Jackieboy Man hasn’t shown up bc he and Jack are one and the same
I am 1000004% ready for a JBM vs Anti showdown
or Marvin vs Anti too
magic cat man deserves more showtime gdi, he’s the oldest ego here and he’s barely had any attention compared to Grits Bits over here 
gringle bungle,,,,, gloat boat,,,,,, grin bin
fuck this is turning into that ASG post from a while ago-
SEAN IT IS 5 AM YOUR TIME GET OFF TUMBLR YOU CUCK
oh that got rid of the bullet points rip
it’s ok I fixed it
guess y’all kinda have an idea of how long I’ve been adding stuff to this now huh
hm I have an AP exam in.... 6 hours, cool
thanks Jack for choosing the day before it to dump the entirity of hell on us :D
no but really I missed this
IF THERE’S NOTHING ANTI-RELATED FOR LIKE 6N MONTHS AFTER THIS IM GOING TO DIE
YOU BETTER NOT KILL OFF ANYONE EITHER, SEAN
can I start referring to Robin as “accomplice cube” again?
plz
that was one of my proudest moments here
and it’s quite fitting for now
Why doesn’t Jack remember the egos?? or is that simply his form of fuckery for us, and it doesn’t actually tie in to this bizarre plot thing going on?
Signe better not start pretending to not know the egos too...... shes the last one i trust ok

reaction post typed while watching SPN 13x23 “Let The Good Times Roll”
idk what you guys thought but I LIKED IT and here’s why!!!! (EXCEPT THAT THING WITH THE KNIFE??? WHAT THE HELL???)
04:02pm
so it only took 45 minutes to an hour to find somewhere to watch this, my thanks to @trisscar368 for helping me out!!!
eventually found it streaming rather than downloading, would not recommend but HEY IT WORKS (for now) [http://gorillavid.in/zbtu97hfei65]
this feels like it’s 2008 all over again, trying to watch doctor who after school
OKAY LET’S GO
i’ve seen a bunch of major spoilers but i know cas doesn’t die so i’m good. apparently it’s A Boring Episode but also MICHEAL and LUCIFER so
idk idk let’s just watch the thing and find out what happens
-
04:04
rowena: is there, i dunno, music? CARRY ON MYY WAYWAR---
fuck
-
04:09pm
feels good having bobby there
Tumblr media
-
BOBBY’S REACTION TO TRUMP IS THE BEST EVER
“and you call where WE come from ‘apocalypse world’?”
-
04:11
cas: “they’re talking about whether kylie jenner would make a good mother. consensus is no”
hey give her a chance
i mean i know nothing about her but she seems... teachable?
-
dean: “yeah well, that’s why i’m a chloe man”
WHOOOOOP dean loves his girly trash tv i see
-
brown werewolf: “now that is why i’m a chloe man”
dead brown person alert :|
how naive i was to think he might be left alive because he got a speaking line and made himself a dean parallel with that single line
-
04:16
mary: “do you really like the rain?”
bobby: “when it’s this beautiful, i do”
lest anyone forget bobby is a gentle down to earth sweetheart
soft papa bear
-
“rowena and charlie are road-tripping it through the south-west”
WOULD WATCH THAT SPINOFF
but #savewaywardsisters first
-
04:19
dean: “can you imagine? you, me, cas, toes in the sand, couple of those little umbrella drinks, matching hawaiian shirts, obviously”
PLEASE
“....some hula girls“
mmmm *squints at how that part was said after a....... pause, off-screen with the camera on sam*
-
04:24
dean to jack: “it’s not about being strong....... i don’t know what you went through over there... but i know you came out the other side. because you ARE strong”
good papa dean words
much love for him and his emotional avaliability
-
04:26
dean: “whatever you’re dealing with, whatever comes at us, we’ll figure out a way to deal with it. together. we’re family, kid”
sam said it to dean, dean said it to jack
i guess the next step is ...jack saying it to cas?? SOMEONE’s gotta say it to cas
but also WOOOO DEAN’S CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT REGARDING JACK SINCE THE START OF THE SEASON
-
04:32
Tumblr media
um
is it just me or is this a seriously unfortunate racist-looking coincidence
desperately hoping this wasn’t the guy who killed maggie
(i don’t think it is, which means maybe this is a “don’t jump to conclusions” kind of storyline which has a race-relations subtext??? i wish it meant nothing besides jack’s need to protect others, but given the lack of living characters of colour on this show, the minute a person of colour shows up, it BECOMES about the fact they’re not white, bECAUSE they always die, invariably)
anyway, my point is: this is problematic
also the red shirt. as in “red shirts always die” ??
edit: thank goodness....... RED HERRING
-
Tumblr media
“3 sheeps” poster in the background
i remember this symbolism from something earlier but can’t remember exactly what
i’m thinking lambs to the slaughter, or being part of a flock, or being herded into something they’re wrong about, being naive, following each other one by one into the unknown
wow reading tarot has improved my “make a list of all the obvious symbolism” skills
-
04:39
Tumblr media
the fact cas is suffering with the angel language whistle is interesting?? i thought it hurts dean because he can’t understand it
which means.......cas isn’t understanding this noise?
or maybe he is understanding, it’s just real loud
-
04:42
enjoying sam being protective of cas
Tumblr media
-
lucifer: ........”the three amigos.... sam, dean, and the other one”
that’s probably how a lot of people see team free will tbh
how sad
-
lucifer: “you want a lightsaber?”
jack:
vroom
Tumblr media
we mAY HAVE LONG SAID HE’S TOO PRECIOUS FOR THIS WORLD BUT WE NEVER MEANT FOR HIM TO LEAVE
-
04:50
Tumblr media
that awkward moment when you’re trying to solve a murder and your adorable magic grandson comes home with the devil
:o
-
the face you make when the devil makes an ableist joke about your son and then says “no offence”
Tumblr media
(the ”i would murder you but there’s enough dead bodies in here right now” face)
-
04:56
maggie: “kinda seems like you have... you know, bigger.... satan-y... problems”
Tumblr media
bless this girl
-
05:00
dean: “as shakespeare once said: eat me, dick-bag”
tbh shakespeare probably did say that at one point or another
add shakespeare to the list of dean’s bisexual heroes
(follow up thought: what if when cas could time-travel, he and dean and sam went to go explore shakespeare’s town and dean made.... Friends)
-
05:04
lucifer’s talking to jack about their future space travels
i mean i think it’s fairly obvious, lucifer was the one who killed maggie, so he could bring her back and impress jack
maggie said “i didn’t see their face but i saw their eyes” and that means it was either lucifer or michael with the glowing eyes, and micheal said to dean “you’ll be the first life i take in this world” which leaves lucifer
stinking nasty manipulative trash angel

05;07
micheal, while strangling dean: “could’ve done this quick, but i wanted to enjoy it, that moment when the soul leaves the body”
yeeeah okay sure, speak aloud your reasons you’re stalling for time while jack figures out how to get back
-
05:10
jack to lucifer: “you’re not my father. you monster”
HUZZAH
-
for the record i’m... reaLLY ENJOYING THIS episode so far
it’s all big and mighty and magical but the core of the story is a boy trying to find his family and figure out the truth behind his manipulative father
i’m so glad it led to this because i am HERE for this kind of story
the world hangs in the balance, but it’s not dean, cas and sam trying to save everyone, it’s jack trying to find his place among loved ones, and by following his desire to help people he’s learning what he needs to know
i fucking love this okay

lucifer: i just need your power--
Tumblr media
OH NO I SPOKE TOO SOON
OH NO

05:17
michael: “this is the end. of everything”
Tumblr media
I SEE DEAN’S COGS WHIRRING AND I WORRY
nine years of not saying yes to micheal and now it’s happening isn’t it
-
05:20
jack’s pained little whimper :c :c :c
-
05:21
dean: “i am your sword”
CHILLS
-
05:22
dean: “CAS I DON’T HAVE A CHOICE”
cas: D:
Tumblr media
PERFECT MOMENT FOR AN AGGRESSIVE KISS but nope that would be too much like goodbye
-
05:24
third option rather than sam or jack trying to kill each other: they pick up lucifer’s blade and kill lucifer with it
-
05:26
WHAT 
NO
??????
BAD IDEA????
Tumblr media
JUST STAB LUCIFER????
-
jack:  i love you
NOO ;;A;A;A;A;A;A;A;;A;A
DJSGJD
I’M NOT ENJOYING THIS 0/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND 
PLEASE STOP

05:27
WELL FUCK
Tumblr media
hi there
WHHHOOOOOOO
Tumblr media
meanwhile back at the bunker: cas has the weirdest traumatic boner

THE WINGS KEEP GETTING BIGGER

interesting angel flying physics here
dean flails while sailing slowly backwards
i mean i know he’s on a suspension wire but technically waving his arms about ought to affect his position
-
05:33
Tumblr media
LITERALLY SAM COULD’VE DONE THAT TO BEGIN WITH
WHAT EVEN WAS THE POINT OF THIS
HE COULD’VE ACTED LIKE HE WAS ABOUT TO STAB JACK AND THEN GO WHOOSH AND STAB LUCIFER
SAM HAS FUCKING NOODLE ARMS HE COULD’VE DONE IT WITH HIS EYES CLOSED
JEEZ
-
05:35
okay but i’m laughing right now
Tumblr media
are you telling me this is what happens if lucifer accidentally trips and falls on his knife
where did that golden blade come from anyway
has lucifer just been carrying it around this whole time?
COULD ANYONE HAVE PICKPOCKETED THAT KNIFE AND STABBY STABBY >>> EXPLODING FLYING FLAME DEVIL ??
WHAT BRAIN CELLS WAS LUCIFER MISSING TO HAND THAT BLADE TO SAM WINCHESTER IN THE FIRST PLACE
OR GO INTO BATTLE WITH MICHAEL WITHOUT THE KNIFE
OR TO HAVE THAT BLADE ON HAND IN THE FIRST PLACE ??????????
I’m sorry i just find this hilarious
i mean good fucking riddance to this trash angel but wow what a way to get there
all of this was so easily avoidable ?? i seriously don’t understand what possessed sam to think “aw yeah let’s pick up this magic devil blade to KILL MY OWN SON and/or HAND IT TO HIM SO HE CAN KILL ME” instead of “umMMM the devil just gave me a magic knife and is trying to tell us to kill each other maybe we should kill him with it”
I HOPE SOMEONE IN THE WRITER’S ROOM HAS A REALLY GOOD EXPLANATION FOR THIS

05:45
HAPPY RELIEVED SAMMY
Tumblr media
why do i feel like everything’s about to go terribly terribly wrong, worse than before
-
05:48
Tumblr media
i mean micheal!dean looks good though
despite everything i think dean would approve of the outfit
-
like he actually looks a little bit TOO attractive
definitely not to be trusted
you know when people just look TOO handsome and shiny and perfect and they’re TOO charming and you know something’s up
this guy’s got danger written all over him in sleek & elegant calligraphy

05:50pm
mmmmmmmmm okay, it’s over
i liked it ?
felt old-school, kinda like a buffy episode or an x-files episode
things i’m happy about: everyone lived and lucifer died!! this is a pretty cool progression of events and i’m interested to see where it goes (not EXCITED, i’m not EAGER, but i am interested). that black dude was not the one who killed maggie. maggie survived!!!
things i’m not thrilled about: the fact sam didn’t just stab lucifer in the face when he was right next to him holding the magic knife?????? i don’t get it and i don’t think any kind of meta is actually gonna be able to explain how ~UM EXCUSE ME JUST ONE SECOND~esque that moment was
no bechdel test pass
jack’s personal arc this season was great and i love him
as always, this show is riveting to me only because i care so much about the characters, and i cannot tELL YOu how fucking pleased i am that this show’s universe is now a universe where bobby, charlie, mary, rowena, dean, cas, sam, jack, jody, donna, claire, the other wayward girls, and billie ALL EXIST AND ARE ALIVE
seriously could’ve done with some kevin too, i’m still bummed that he’s died TWICE now and isn’t back permanently yet
but HOLY SHIT THE REST OF THEM ARE ALL ALIVE 
GIVE ME A TEAM-FREE-WILL-MAJOR SEASON WITH ALL THE SQUAD ALIVE AND KICKING ASS AS A GROUP
like... save dean as a group, then one by one discover that dean and cas have been locked in a room without clothes for three days, then save the world and retire forever as a happy, healthy hunter squad with their gay dads
FUCK YEAH
overall, this episode is maybe a 9/10 just because that FUCKING KNIFE man. i dunno what to think about that.
like .........why
i also want cas to have a season arc!!! a positive one!!! where he actually accepts love and expresses affection and receives AUDIBLE AND VISIBLE AND TANGIBLE affection from others!!!
and for fuck’s sakes stop killing people of colour, give us more women of colour who are good and don’t die, pass the bechdel test more often
AND ABOVE ALL GIVE US WAYWARD SISTERS I WANT THAT SHOW SO BADLY AND EVERYTHING IT REPRESENTS
IT WOULD FILL IN ALL THE GAPS THAT ARE MISSING FROM THIS SHOW
PLEASE
