——————————————————
January 14, 2023
4 weeks pregnant
2 weeks.
2 weeks had passed and you still hadn’t gotten your period. You tried to stay calm as your thoughts ran wild. You had no idea what you would even do if you were pregnant. You live in a one bedroom apartment, you have a very busy schedule, you’re only 24, and hell, you’re not even in a relationship with the baby daddy! Well, he'll only be the baby daddy if you are pregnant, which is really looking to be the case.
Oh god. The baby daddy, Joe. What would you tell Joe!? How would you even tell Joe!? And then there’s the whole situation with telling Sam. If you are pregnant with Joes baby, how would you tell Sam!? You can’t just say: “Hey Sam, I slept with your best friend and surprise, he knocked me up!” You started to panic, regretting everything from that one steamy night that ensued between the two of you. it felt so right in the moment—and even the morning after. But right now? Boy did it feel so wrong.
Y/n, calm down. You don't even know that you're pregnant yet! You thought to yourself, trying to ease your worries that you just knew were going to be true. You sat on your bed and pulled out your phone, deciding to seek advice from someone who is going through your exact dilemma. Okay… maybe not exact, but she is currently pregnant, so maybe she could help you out.
You- Hey emma. Do you have a second?
Emma-Oh, hey Y/n! Always, what’s up?
You- Well, I won't give any details...yet. It’s kind of personal, but I could use your help.
Emma- Everything OK?
You- I don’t know yet. I need to know, what were your earliest pregnancy symptoms?
Emma- My earliest pregnancy symptoms? Why do you need to know that?😂
You- because I just do. What were they?
Emma- Omg?! Y/n, are you pregnant?
You- I don't know! That’s why I’m asking you about your symptoms so I can evaluate myself lol
Emma- This is crazy. Who’s the baby daddy!? I’m so excited. Does Sam know!?
You- As much as I would like to tell you, that is classified information. And no, Sam doesn’t know. I don’t usually discuss my pregnancy scares with him.
Emma- Makes sense. Well, my earliest symptom was definitely feeling super tired. I always had a metallic taste in my mouth too. I also got really horny over everything Sam did. I just looked at him like he was a big slice of cheesecake😍
You-Oooh, I could go for cheesecake right now
Emma- Me too👅😏
You- Ew, that’s my brother you’re talking about. But i don't have any of those symptoms, except maybe the tiredness.
Emma- Well, what are your symptoms then, babe? maybe I can let you know based on those?
You- Nausea, vomiting(mainly in the morning), sore boobs, being grossed out by certain smells. I hate coffee now and I swear my hearing has changed.
Emma- Awe Y/n, go buy a pregnancy test right now. you're definitely pregnant.
You- Seriously?! You think so?
Emma- Girl. Sore boobs, the morning sickness, being grossed out by certain smells. There is definitely a bun in your oven, honey.
Your heart dropped and a pit formed in your stomach as you read her text. Tears began to well up in your eyes as you grew overwhelmed by the emotions you were currently experiencing. There’s only one way to be sure. You need to take a test.
You-Oh god...I guess I’ll go take a test. i'll keep you updated. Thank you for helping me, Em. love you!
Emma-Of course! Hey, good luck okay? No matter what the results are, I’m always here for you, got it? So are the other girls. love you!❤️
With that, you turned your phone off and let out a shaky sigh of defeat. Time to go buy a test and pee on a stick that’ll change your life forever—for better or for worse.
~time skip~
You quickly opened the door to your apartment. You made your way to the bathroom. shutting and locking the door once you were inside. You placed the plastic grocery bag from Walgreens on the countertop. Here goes nothing…
You took a deep breath as you opened the bag and took out two different types of pregnancy tests. One Clear Blue digital test and the other, a First Response test. You’ve seen advertisements for both and we’re unsure which one was more effective, so you decided to buy both. Taking multiple tests won’t hurt. You opened up the containers that held the tests with shaky hands. You’ve only ever experienced a pregnancy scare one other time before this. But this time felt much different than the first. Because there’s a chance you could actually be pregnant. Your eyes scanned over the directions. You slightly laughed to yourself at the step-by-step directions provided by the pregnancy test companies. You pee on a stick—it's pretty idiot proof. What a way to find out you're bringing a little bundle of joy into the world, huh? Who knew peeing on one little white stick could bring you the best or worst news you’ll ever receive. Although you’re extremely nervous for the results, you do know one thing. Even if the test is positive, as much as it would be a shock and certainly unplanned, this baby would be so, so loved.
You didn't feel like making a mess, so you decided it would be best to do your business in a small cup. However, the clean dishes you had only had in your kitchen were wine glasses. So you decided, fuck it, you’ll just pee in a wine glass. Which is exactly what you did.
After successfully peeing in the wine glass, you set it on the counter and dipped the tests in there for about eight seconds. You didn’t really know how long you were supposed to dip the tests, but you figure if you’re pregnant it won’t matter anyways since the test will detect it right away. You put the caps on both tests and flipped them over. You didn’t want to see the results right away. You set a timer for three minutes and waited anxiously, chewing at your bottom lip as soon as the timer started to tick down. As you waited for the results, you slightly hoped the tests would be negative. You were so worried about what you would do if they come out positive. Of course you would keep the baby, but you absolutely are not ready to be a mother yet. Your nerves were currently through the roof as you paved back in forth in your bathroom, waiting for the test results that held your fate. You decided to text Emma to ease the nerves.
You- Hey! I just took a couple tests. I have about two minutes left on the timer and I’m so nervous right now. How did you do this, Em?😂
Emma- Awe, Y/n. Well, I was prepared for the results, and I had Sam there as support. If I was in your situation though, I would've been a nervous wreck. But you'll be fine! Promise.
You- Yeah, that’s true. Thank you for the reassurance<3
Emma- Of course. Good luck!
You shut your phone off and the timer went off about 10 seconds after your screen went dark. Your heart rate quickened, the palpitations making you feel like your heart was going a mile a minute. Your hands got clamy and your tummy churned with nervous butterflies. Inhaling a deep breath, you spoke to no one in particular—just yourself. "Okay, Y/n. If this is positive, it's going to be OK. This baby will be loved no matter what. You have a huge support system, and even if Joe decides he doesn't want anything to do with you or the baby, it will be fine."
"Here it goes..." you murmured, getting ready to flip over the tests sitting face down on the bathroom counter. Your hands shook as you turned over the Clear Blue test first. Your worried eyes scanned the white and blue stick. Your heart dropped as you read the results, tears immediately welling up in your eyes. You picked up the test and put a hand up to your mouth in disbelief.
Pregnant 3+
You held the Clear Blue test in one hand as you flipped over the First Response test. Two dark and distinct pink lines had developed on the previously all white circle in the middle of the test.
You’re pregnant.
You picked up both of the tests, holding them in my hands as you choked out a sob.
"Oh my god...there's no way." You set the tests down, thinking hard about how this was even possible. Yeah you and Joe had unprotected sex, but on birth control, how could this happen!?
You mentally scolded yourself in the moment. You know brith control isn’t 100% effective.
You set the pregnancy test on the counter and n swiftly walked out of the bathroom. You grabbed your package of birth control pills that sat on the nightstand. You examined the pack. No missed pills. Until you saw it. There it was, staring back at you, sitting on your nightstand, a small yellow pill. You smacked your forehead, remembering when you missed a dosage a few weeks back. You told yourself you would take it the next day, but you never did. You sat down on the bed and hunched over. Resting your head in your hands as sobs began to wreck your body. You could blame it on hormones, but you knew it really wasn't just from the pregnancy hormones.
The truth is, you were feeling scared and utterly alone. You didn't feel prepared to be a mother at all. You had no idea how you would break the news to Sam or your parents. And Joe, you don’t even want to think about he’s going to react to the news. Will he stay around or is your baby going to grow up without its daddy? It broke your heart just thinking about telling anyone, especially Joe, about your pregnancy.
You slowly lifted your head up and hastily wiped your wet, bloodshot eyes. You were so overwhelmed right now. As you sat on the bed, contemplating all of your decisions from the past month, you let your mind wander to your pregnancy. You let out a sigh as you stood up and walked over to your body mirror by your bed. Once you were in front of the mirror, you pulled up your shirt and examined your belly in the mirror. No bump yet. You placed your hand over your lower abdomen, gently stroking your soft skin with your thumb to let the little guy or girl know you knew about their existence in your womb.
"Hey baby...what are we gonna do?" You spoke softly,!voice cracking with emotion as you gazed at your still flat tummy. As you looked in the mirror, you couldn’t help but smile as you thought about all the milestones i'll get to experience in the next nine months. The cravings, the baby bump, the first kick, finding out the gender, decorating a nursery, labor and delivery. Part of you was so excited for this milestone in your life, but the other part of you was absolutely terrified.
You have no idea how you’ll break the news to Joe that he’s going to be a daddy. You just hope he reacts well…
hey loves!
so this chapter was a little short, but there was really no way to drag this one out any longer lol. the next chapter is much longer though :)
how do you think joe will react to the news? if you think he reacts in the best way possible…you may want to think again👀
i’m having so much fun with this series and i hope you are too! i’ll have a welcome to the jungle update out sometime this weekend or beginning of next week. i REALLY need to update that series, i sincerely apologize for the lack of of updating. i’ll make it up to all of you, i promise!
i hope you’re all doing well. as always, thank you for reading🤍

First ever request on Tumblr but Can you do one where like the reader is a hunter as well but she doesn’t make that obvious so when Dean keeps asking her questions she threatens to stab him and he says “ You’re not really gonna shank me, are you ?”
oooh a first request?!? so freaking exciting. hopefully this lives up to expectations in any way :)
Pairing: Dean Winchester x Reader (kinda hehe)
Warnings: talks of death (aligning with usual supernatural stuff), this is a comedy to be honest, [“what do you have?” “a knife!!!” “no!!!!”]
send requests here!
—————
Dean walked into the near-empty bar, ducking under the tape at the door. He looked around to see one woman standing near the body, and her full attention now seemed to be on him. She looked official.
“Hey,” Dean started. “I’m, uh, Agent Plant. You are?”
“Agent Jones,” she stated curtly.
“I thought this was a closed scene? Cops outside put up a fight when I tried getting in.”
“Special privilege.”
“Anything new?” he asked, walking closer to her.
“Not so far.”
“You mind if I check around the space? See if any, uh…”
“Go for it.”
He nodded, looking at the bar first. It seemed like it was going to be a witch situation, so he started looking for hex bags. He was near the end when he turned back to her as she examined the body.
“Has anything strange been found? Any weird coins or…?” he trailed, watching her face.
She narrowed her eyes. “No.”
“No small bags or anything hidden around the room?”
She stared at him for a moment from where she was crouched.
“What would be in these bags if they were found?”
“Uh, you know… There’s been some scenes that could be connected. They had small animal bones, some other weird—”
“Alright,” she mumbled, standing abruptly. She pushed him into the wall, a hand on the handle of her knife, “How the hell do you know any of this?”
“I- I don’t…” he started with wide eyes.
She pulled the blade. “You a witch?”
“No! No, I’m not a—” he stumbled over words as his eyes widened further upon seeing the knife. “Uh, you’re not really gonna shank me, are you?”
“How do you know so much about what’s happening here?”
“I’m trying to help,” he said, raising his hands in surrender.
“Help how?”
“I’m a hunter!”
She paused. “What’s your name?”
“Winchester. Dean Winchester.”
Realization dawned on her face as she withdrew her knife. She watched him closely, not moving. As she opened her mouth to speak, an even taller man walked into the room.
“Is everything good here?” he asked, looking between the other two.
“I assume you’re Sam,” she said quietly.
“Yeah.”
She nodded. “Well, damn.”
Dean smirked as she lowered her arm from where it rested against his throat.
“If you wanted me against the wall, you really could’ve just asked, sweetheart.”
She narrowed her eyes. “I won’t hesitate to stab you next time you say something like that.”
She looked between them, annoyance still thrumming in her veins. She huffed a sigh as she sheathed her blade again.
“It is a witch. I just don’t know how they killed this particular person,” she said. “You’re welcome to help me, but keep in mind this was my case first. I’ll be outside.”
They watched as she left, mumbling under her breath about the “freaking Winchesters” showing up to her case. The boys looked at each other as she walked out the door.
“That was kinda hot,” Dean said finally, letting out half a laugh.
First Sam laughed. Then, upon realizing they were on a literal witch-hunt, he serioused.

The Lost Boys came out in 1987. And you can’t tell me that Eddie Munson would not have made that film his whole personality.
And you know damn well he would be mad jealous of how hot Steve found Jason Patric, Billy Wirth, Brooke McCarter, Keifer Sutherland, and Alex Winter. Like you know he’d have a poster up in his room that he stole was conveniently missing from family video.
Like genuinely, I see Steve waxing poetic and going on long drawn out tangents about Jason and Brooke’s hair from the movie, specifically. And Eddie just sitting there not so silently fuming. Mumbling under his breathe how SUPER nice and heavy metal his hair is.
Bonus points if it’s Kas Eddie. Phew boy! He’d be pointing out and correcting all the inaccuracies about vampires in the film and getting all stuffy whenever Steve shushes him. Everytime there’s a movie night Steve suggests they watch it. Like at this point he blatantly stole a copy from work. Obviously Eddie calls him on it one night when it’s just the two of them, after steve starts bemoaning his lack of hot vampire goth boyfriend. Eddie finally snaps and gets all in Steve’s face and asks(loudly), “what’s so great about them(their hair/general aesthetic) when you’ve got me?! Who’s an actual vampire…with great hair!!” And Steve just tilts his head and shrugs and says “you know what? You’re right.” Then proceeds to lay one(several) on Eddie.
Bonus bonus points if we have an alive reformed Billy who takes offense to Steve’s(and Eddie’s) attraction to Keifer and Billy Wirth.
Like oh my god! The possibilities are endless.
_____________________________________
Also as I was writing this I thought up of a The Lost Boys/Stranger Things crossover. (I’m pretty sure much more talented and creative people have not only mentioned this but also written it). But like the possibilities are endless.
Just hear me out:
-Vecna as Max
-Billy as David
-Eddie as Star
-Will as Laddie
-Joyce as Lucy
-Steve as Michael(obviously)
-Dustin as Sam
-Lucas and Mike as the frog brothers
-Tommy as Dwayne
-Johnathan as Marco
-Argyle as Paul
-El and Max as friends of Dustin’s who get brought into it.
-Robin as Steve’s new friend
-Nancy as the frogs older sister
-Erica is somewhere in this bc you know she’s sass the shit out of them
-Hopper as the security guard who gets killed(sorry Hop) maybe this is how El gets involved and since Maxine is her bestie so she does too.
-Chrissy, Heather and Jason possible victims. (Sorry Chrissy and Heather💔).
-Or maybe Heather and Carol are Billy’s and Tommy’s love interests before Steve shows up to rock the boat. Chrissy could either be Eddie’s friend or former flame. (Chrissy ends up with Robin)
Oooh or create new characters for Robin, Nancy, Chrissy, El, Max, Johnathan, Argyle, and Heather. Or maybe make the others some of the other vampires in the gang but like their in it against their will, so when Vecna inevitably dies Stobin bffs happens. Idk idk there’s just so much.
And depending if it’s Steddie or Metalsandwich Steve saves Eddie and/or Billy reforms.
Like idk but i love the film, it’s one of my favorites and just gives such great Steddie/metalsandwich vibes.
God just imagine how gay this could all be.
Like somebody else needs to write this. I can’t do it, idk if you’ve seen my liberal use of the word ‘like’ or not but a writer I am not.
#the lost boys#stranger things#steddie#mungrove#mungroveson#Steve/Eddie#Steve/billy#Steve/Eddie/Billy#vampires#Kas Eddie#stobin#hellcheerington#hellcheer#jargyle#fruity four#1987#vampire films#steve harringon#eddie munson#billy hargrove#robin buckley#nancy wheeler#fruity six#bi steve harrington#metalsandwich#eddissy#fanfiction#punk steve harrington#spicy six#steddie fic

Early Access 9/11
Every mention of the Monarchal Summit approaching has me more and more worried that like some shit is gonna end up going down during it like now the wolf pack's going to be there too?? 👀 Maybe it's the fact that it's happening in October that adds to the uneasy feeling of Dread™
What if Quinn somehow escapes or has allies that are gonna be there? What if Alexis goes and starts drama after seeing Sam and Darlin' there together? Hell, the Imperium left off last year after getting overtaken by Sam as the new vampire overlord, I wouldn't put it past Echo to play around with the realities a bit.... let them bleed (haha get it, because vampires) into one another.
Or y'know maybe it'll just end up being a fun little party with everyone getting all dressed up 🥰 teehee
but this audio was really cute 🥹 I love Sam and Darlin' so much I'm glad they finally got their lazy morning together with no interruptions. Also Darlin' kicking some guy's ass in a club is so delicious yesss use that fury inside you to fuck up the creeps you're doing great sweetie!
and Sam finally letting his Duke status slip you just know Darlin' will never let that go. They're out here sending him texts like "My illustrious Duke, apologies for the intrusion but we seem to be out of milk. Mayhaps the kind Duke would be so kind as to parley with a courier from the kingdom of DoorDash to have some delivered posthaste 🙏🏻" and Sam's already on the way to beat their ass.
edit: oop I just saw there was a bonus scene 😳😳 PORTER SOLAIRE??? NEW BOY??? NEW VAMPIRE BOY??? WITH BEEF WITH VINCENT 🫣 Welcome to the stage Adam 2.0 everybody (jkjk) but wow I can't wait to hear the drama oooh this is gonna be so good

Not bad ... now she hits the avadon with THREE ELDRITCH BLASTS? I thought she DIDN'T want to be loud ... 30 points of damage overall! Holy shit ...

Oh yeah ... what IS in the cart? A box? It's heavy ... they put it in the Hole. Then Imogen lifts the cart and PUTS IT ON TOP of one of the buildings ...
They're being watched? Laudna sends Pate to check it out ... looks like someone just living there, a civilian. Hmmmm ...
Oh, so this one's OLD? Okay ... so Pate just SCARES THE BEJEEZUS out of them. Effectively shutting them up, then ... very intimidating ...
To the Jagged Edge! Quickly now ... group deception check to pass unnoticed ...
There's a FAINT glow in the Scry ball ... so Otohan's not SUPER CLOSE, but in the city now. Great ...
FCG's homing in on Zhesh with Locate Creature ... a merchant district? Okay ...
Like writing in dreams? That's beautiful if haunting ...
This must be the place ...
These glass weapons sound absolutely BEAUTIFUL ...
Another one of the fuzzy guys, but really OLD ... he seems interesting ... so this is Jidoh ...
Yeah, DEFINITELY Insight Check ... and they BOTH get Whispers? Cool ...
A Reiloran Shrike? Hmmmm ... oh, but she has a scar on her face, yeah, I remember that ... this MUST BE Zhesh ...
So what DO they want?
Interesting ... she's making A POINT of speaking to them VOCALLY ...
Time for truth, clearly ... yes, clearly they DO have an ally here ...
The Overspoke? Hmmm ... looking for Earot ...
They do need somewhere to hide. Where to go?
300 gold for a glass scythe? Good deal.
They can stay in the cellar for no more than an hour ... ah, so a short rest, then ...
Laudna likes the little Dancer statue ... a persuasion check? 21 ... it's not for sale ... but she gives it as a GIFT?!!! Awwwww ... that's sweet ...
SHORT REST!!! Yes indeed ...
Looking in the box ... it's a Paragon's Call item! Hmmmm ... a magical lock ... oof ... yeah, best come back to that ...
FCG RITUALLY casts Telepathic Bond ...
So Orym can actually Druidcraft blueberries? That's adorable ... :3
If Chetney shows us his new toy, they all DIE. He insists ... hmmmm ...
These people NEED their help, it's true. But they need to be CAREFUL going about it ...
Capture as a TACTIC? I don't like it.
Oh shit ... have they been busted? Somebody's here! Crap ... they're COMING!!!
And that's IT?!!! Seriously? Oof ... bloody cliffhangers ...

Rewatching Sympathy for the Devil
Welcome to “Sexy Dom Murder Cas and Unhinged Possibly Queer Expert German Cuckoo Clock Repairmen: A Supernatural Rewatch Blog” with Lor and Mace!
Up today, s5e1: Sympathy for the Devil
Luci anesti and the boys are left reeling from poor Sammy’s massive fail. But while they’re struggling to navigate this new phase in their brotherly relationship, the hits just keep on coming: Bobby, while possessed, plays on Sam’s sense of self-loathing, and then Dean finds out that *he’s* the sword of Michael, meant to become his vessel in the Final Battle. He gives the asshat angels a big NOPE and is trying to deal with the immediate and violent fallout from that decision when Cas swoops in with his sexy dom voice and rescues them. Meanwhile, back at the Satan Ranch, Luci is busy gaslighting his own potential vessel. It’s about to get real, y’all.
[and we begin:]

Lor:
"sure. naturally. could you do me a favor, there, Satan" haaaaaahahahahaha
Mace:
YESYESYES I LOVE HIM
Lor:
so if Nick is also a vessel for Luci, does that mean that Sam and Dean are related to him somehow?
Mace:
yeah I’ve wondered that before
Lor:
actor is a real asshat but he does an AMAZING job at this
Mace:
he is?
Lor:
yeeeah
Mace:
what’d he do?
Lor:
well he's BIG into Ayn Rand
Mace:
Aha. enough said, then.
Lor:
yeaaaah
Mace:

Lor:
ooooh Bobby
Mace:
maybe nick is just a vessel on the level of Cas’s vessel, esp since he doesn’t last long before he starts breaking down
Lor:
"screw him, you'll be fine" I LOVE YOU DEAN

Lor:
YES
"I'll fight. I'll fight to the last man." oh, hon
Mace:
both of these boys need therapy so hard
Lor:
RIGHT?!
Lor:
I hate when they get all grrr and can't get on the same page, but I do like this representation of the idea that sometimes you understand but still can't get past it
Mace:
yeah
although the Sam Girl in me thinks Dean’s being just a smidge of a whiny lil bitch here
Lor:
sigh
I AM SHOCKED
SHOCKED I SAY
Mace:
HAAAAAAHAHAHAHA

Discord Highlights: Theodoc "Trotter" Brandybuck
From a discussion on 4/28/23
Windmill to the Stars:
I've heard vague references to a letter Tolkien wrote to a fan (not included in the volume of the Letters) in which he told her that Merry named at least one son "Periadoc." I kind of like it, especially if the "Per" part is related to "Peregrin" or "Periannath"! What do y'all think? Does this go with the other headcanons we came up with about Merry's kids?
InvisibleWashboard:
I can see it! May steal it and replace one of the other son’s names I have in my one-shot about all his babies!
Me:
Merry and Perry 👀
InvisibleWashboard:
It’s maybe a little too cutesy with the rhyming but I kind of like it, not gonna lie.
Windmill to the Stars:
And Pippin's son Ferry
Me:
THE TRIFECTA IS COMPLETE
meg is me:
It's all -erry
Me:
Always has been
meg is me:
You know what must be done now
Me:
It is done
Windmill to the Stars:
Suddenly imagining the next generation in the Shire with Perry and Ferry and the Master of Buckland and the Thain (and idk if Frodo Gardner follows his dad in becoming the mayor of Hobbiton.)
Me:
Okay wait: Is Periadoc Merry’s first son, or is Theodoc??
This is very important to me
Kasey Gondor:
twins
InvisibleWashboard:
Theodoc is for sure the oldest, at least in my head.
Writing Valkyrie:
Theodoc born first by several minutes
Me:
I LOVE THIS
TWINS HECK YEAH
Poor Estella, her first pregnancy and it's twins LOL 🤣
Windmill to the Stars:
Technically she could have older daughters but yeah I think we said before his sons were first
InvisibleWashboard:
I've always imagined he had a set of twins, but it was the last two kids he had. Estella was like, "We've had a bunch of boys, let me try and give you your Eowyn. One more!" Then it ends up being twins, but they don't know. A boy is born first, and they're like, "Yay, another kid, but this is kind of a bummer because we REALLY wanted a girl." And then, BOOM. Surprise daughter! And Merry is just over the moon
Me:
ACK THAT'S SO CUTE
Windmill to the Stars:
How many sons total does Merry have now??
Me:
Yes X-D
Windmill to the Stars:
I mean he's not gonna beat Sam probably but still
Me:
He has yes amount of sons
Writing Valkyrie:
All of his sons are his.
Me:
This is true! Accurate statement!
InvisibleWashboard:
I have 6 sons, one daughter in my one-shot that I've written. A boatload of kids, but not a cruise ship like the Gamgee's.
Me:
cruise ship 🤣🤣
Writing Valkyrie:
He needs it.
They'd sink a boat.
meg is me:
Which of Pippin or Merry's kids (her honorary cousins) do you headcanon Elanor is closest to?
[There was much discussion in response to this question, but I'm cutting most of it for the sake of time lol]
Windmill to the Stars:
Depending on how old Periadoc and Theodoc are they could be closer to Elanor
Theodoc seems like he should be a bit adventurous
And Elanor as well, so maybe they bond over that
Elanor moving into the Tower Hills with her husband but they always welcome her favorite cousin Theodoc who brings them gifts from his adventures
Theodoc is borderline a Knight Errant
Theodoc rides horses and boats with equal ease, he has his own nickname in Bree
meg is me:
What is it
Windmill to the Stars:
. . .
Good question
meg is me:
and can he ride barrels
InvisibleWashboard:
Yes, this is the important question.
Windmill to the Stars:
Of course he can!
meg is me:
Yisss
Writing Valkyrie:
He teaches little Bilbo how
Me:
Bilbo Jr. WOULD take up boating just to give his poor mother a heart attack
Windmill to the Stars:
Amendment: he has like 5 nicknames in Bree
Theodoc becomes actual Trotter
Me:
Minus the wooden feet, I hope??
Windmill to the Stars:
Oooh yes, definitely! 😬
Me:
I mean…it wouldn’t be so bad if Theodoc was born disabled and still had an adventurous spirit. Kinda rad, actually.
Windmill to the Stars:
Ahhh that's true!
New hc
[Bonus]
Windmill to the Stars:
I'm getting way carried away with this, Theodoc wasn't my idea
Me:
Theodoc is OUR idea
Communism
Kasey Gondor:
Windmill to the Stars is @windmilltothestars, InvisibleWashboard is @invisiblewashboard, Writing Valkyrie is @writingvalkyrie, Kasey Gondor is @captaingondor, and meg is me does not have tumblr :-3

Ch 2: I Remember Everything
"I wish I didn't, but I do. Remember every moment on the nights with you. "
_____________________________________________________________
"Well, well, well, would you look at that?"
My cheeks began to burn.
"Is that the damsel in distress from last night?" Colby said with a lopsided grin.
"Oooh, no, no, no-"
"Damsel?" Sam squawked as his head popped up behind Colby's shoulder. "Damsel!" the blonde pulled me in for a hug. Boy, did he have a death grip.
I awkwardly patted Sam's back, "Okay buddy, gotta be able to breathe here." I emphasized with a cough.
"Oh shit, yeah, sorry!" he chuckled, sheepishly. "What are you doing here?"
"Took a break from drivin' I guess. Funny seein' you guys here."
"We just happened to be walking the pier and just bumped into you. What a coincidence, huh?" Colby smirked.
"There's no such thing as coincidences..." Sam muttered, giving Colby a side look. "Remember what Kristin said."
'Kristin? Coincidences?'
"Fuuck, I forgot!" Colby groaned, hiding his face behind his hands.
"Ookay, am I missing something?" I asked, confusion evident in my voice.
"A lady that we interviewed awhile back at a house we were investigating," Sam said nonchalantly. "Anyways, I'm like, starving. Anybody else?"
"Bro, I'm hungry as fuck!"
I contemplate the idea for a moment - I'd love to get a hotel and pass the hell out after the eventful few days I've had, but knowing my stomach issues, if I don't eat I'll be sicker than a dog. After a few more seconds - and the boys creepily staring into my soul - I nod, "Sure, I'm down. I'll follow you guys out."
As I followed them out, I was surprised that they were parked just a few vehicles down. "We're thinking Tender Greens, it's not too far from here. Try to keep up!" Colby smirked as he climbed into his car. I rolled my eyes as I climbed up into my truck, and began following them.
We ordered our food and chose a table towards the back. They sat across from me and we had small talk until we finished eating. The conversation started with the typical, 'What do you like', and 'what are you doing in LA' bits, but when I tip-toed around the questions, I think they took the hint and began talking about themselves. Without going into too much detail, they talked about places they'd love to investigate in the future.
"I heard Nopeming Sanitorium is pretty awesome. " I commented before taking a sip of my drink. "I was going to try to visit with family a few years ago, but the roads were closed off. I later heard that they shut down due to the condition of the building and that the city wanted so much to be upgraded before allowing tourists. It was too costly, so it's been sitting there. "
"I heard about that place." Sam added, "Dakota and his friends went there a while back. They caught some pretty wicked things there."
Sam continued talking about the evidence that Dakota and them caught before going back to the previous conversation about future plans. He briefly looked down at his phone before his eyes grew wide, "Bro, we got to go. We were supposed to meet Jackie."
"Want to tag along with us?" Colby asked as we began clearing our table. "We're meeting a realtor and it'd honestly be nice to have a female perspective." He looked up at me from behind his lashes and stuck his lower lip out. "Please?"
"Oh, I don't know. You really want a stranger to potentially see your new place?" I teased.
"You're not a stranger anymore. " he grinned as he held the door open for me as we left. "We've exchanged names, we've met up a few times now, and even went out to eat together! Which, by the way, you're a pain in the ass. You didn't have to pay for us!" he exclaimed.
"Boo hoo!" I laughed, walking around to my truck. "Guys deserve to be treated to lunch now and then too!"
"Yeah, yeah. You never answered my question," he said, leaning against his car roof.
"I'll follow along. Now let's go. You don't want to be late!"
***
Jackie showed us around a few different homes within the same neighborhood. It was way out of my league, but I was still amazed by some of the sights around there. However, there's still some sketchy houses even in the nicest of areas. The first house we saw the guys felt didn't meet their requirements. The second house was gorgeous on the outside, but the interior screamed the 70s. There were no newer upgrades, and as Sam walked through the house, he was listing things he would want to change. It would be a hefty renovation for such a large estate. At the end of the second tour, I tapped Colby on the arm and mouthed, "Hell naw".
The final house we looked at made our jaw drop. Simple, clean exterior and wrap-around driveway. Jackie pulled around to the back with a grin, "I think before we even enter the house, you'll fall in love with the backyard." And boy, was she right - at least I did. Out back there was a pool with a rock-styled slide, a concrete slab with a fire pit, and a grassy shaded area lined with trees.
"Dude, " I said in awe, "This is beautiful!"
"This is so awesome!" Sam agreed, clasping his hands across his chest.
As the tour moved inside, Colby trailed behind, scoping the area out. He looked serious, but I could tell he was just as thrilled with it by the way his eyes lit up. Gah, his eyes were beautiful.
The house had an open concept on the main level with most of its bedrooms either in the lower level or upstairs. We were in the lower level bathroom when I couldn't help but stare at the tub. It was huge. I peeked behind my shoulder and once I realized that Jackie was out of the room, I climbed into the tub. "Bro, tall bitches can actually stretch out in here!" I grinned, stretching my legs out. I still had room at the foot of the tub.
"Scoot over!" Colby laughed, pulling his knees to his chest. "Sam, get in here. It could easily fit a third!"
Sam glanced between us and shrugged before stepping into the tub. He circled around like a dog before sitting opposite Colby. For the most part, we were all comfy.
"Y'know, this reminds me of that video we shot with the boys," Colby mentioned. "It looks like a threesome is possible in here."
"Oh God." I blush, holding back a laugh.
"Aye yo...what!" Sam chuckles, smiling awkwardly.
Just as we were about to get out of the tub, Jackie peeks her head back into the room and shakes her head, laughing. "I thought there was something fishy going on."
My cheeks turned even more red and I hid my face behind my hands.
Colby looks over and Sam and with a knowing look says, "Yeah, I think this is the one. "
***
I was back at my hotel after my afternoon with the guys. Before I left, Sam asked for my number so that way we could meet up again sometime. I was exhausted when I got here and wanted a long, hot shower.
I set my clean clothes on the counter and turned the shower dial. Steam quickly filled the small bathroom and I pulled off my dirty clothes, kicking them underneath the sink. I got into the shower and welcomed the warmth. The hot water felt amazing on my aching body so I stood under the shower head for a while. It didn't take long for the negative thoughts to creep forward.
They say that the first three months are the hardest after leaving a relationship. It can take years after leaving an abusive one. They weren't lying when they said the person you were with was playing a part, so they could get what they wanted from you. You're left trying to piece together what the hell happened. During your relationship, you take on so much of that person's identity - their struggles, as your own. Once it's over, you're left as an empty shell. I never realized just how fucking empty I'd feel.
Who the hell am I anymore? I don't feel like a mother, now that she's been ripped away from me. I don't have the daily responsibility of getting her ready. I don't get to take part in her day-to-day activities. I don't get to hear about her friend drama or ask how school went. I don't have a job - yet. I simply exist in this shell.
I still think about the good times with Colt. I can't help it. I may have emotionally pulled away, but ten years with someone still elicits good memories. I remember when we first started hanging out in January of senior year. As I'd let my car warm up, he would pick me up and take a few laps around town. We would get so caught up in talking that an hour or so would pass. It was easy to get lost with him. We would talk about our goals in life, and our passions. His blue eyes would shine bright excitedly when he started talking.
As the school year progressed, I fell harder. I would start sneaking out of the house and we'd lay in the truck bed star-gazing. He did everything that I dreamed a man would be like. He was a gentleman. I had no worries about him being my first time. He was soft at first, making sure I was okay, before taking the reigns.
"No, you'll never be the man that you always swore. But I'll remember you singin' in that '88 Ford."
I was suddenly shaken from my thoughts when what sounded like a slamming door rattled the walls. Taking a deep breath to calm my nerves, I finished up my shower and got dressed. It was almost midnight when I pulled back the covers and climbed into bed, settling on Ghost Adventures on the TV before falling asleep.
______________________________________________________________
Hey guys! Thanks for reading this story so far! I know it's a little slow, but I promise it'll get better! I'm totally open to any critiquing and even some ideas that you'd like to see in the book.
Enjoy reading lovelies!
Xoxo,

what are your thoughts on the rebel diamonds track list? 🤔 i know they have their reasons for each track being on there, but any you think they missed out?
Oooh, what a great ask, thank you!! (also hiii good to see you again!)
I think the track list is pretty standard and not too surprising, especially considering Brandon in particular wants to be a crowd pleaser always, so they've got a pretty good idea of the tracks that have the best chance of pulling in new fans who might have only known one or two songs prior.
That said, I do think I'd change a few things. I think it's a bit Hot Fuss heavy (which is to be expected--it is their most successful and well known album), so as much as I love Jenny I think I'd scrap that and just leave the big 3. I feel like Sam's Town should get a third offering, so I'd probably add Bling--I know it wasn't a single, but I feel like it captures the feeling of Sam's Town well.
As much as I LOVE Be Still, I think I would've swapped it for The Way It Was, especially because they put Be Still on Direct Hits already. I think Run For Cover could also have been added to represent Wonderful Wonderful, or even Rut. Rut I think would work well especially instead of Be Still, since it's a little more down tempo than their other songs but really builds in the bridge. Also as much as I love MOSW, I think I'd scrap that and just leave Caution and Dying Breed for ITM. I also kinda wish Shot At The Night made it on here somehow, but I recognize they wanted to keep the "20 songs for 20 years" thing going.
The rest I think are all good! Quiet Town is my personal fave off Pressure Machine, and while I think I personally would have put ITCO as the second offering, I think Pressure Machine (song) is really beautiful and showcases both Brandon's vocals and their ability to have a diverse sound, so I'm fine with that staying.
I'm surprised Spirit was a song that survived from their scrapped EP/album. I think it had a lot of potential but the production just muddies it up. I actually love the vocal effects on Boy and YSOT, but the effect on Spirit just makes it all sound monotone, but not in the "anyone can belt this at karaoke" way that Mr. Brightside achieves, which is a shame.
Whew, that really got away from me but those are my thoughts haha
#overall i mean. it's a greatest hits compilation and they definitely got all the biggest ones on there so not really too much to tweak#obviously it's hard to leave ANY on the chopping block bc they have so many strong songs that i love so dearly#also i hope you're doing well i know times are. absolute shit rn#rebel diamonds#asks#hsm2

Blood Brothers AU - Tony Discovers Ant-Man
((Oooh this is a good one, Anon! Thank you! I’ve been wanting to get back into the AU, and this was a good prompt. Thank you for it!))
Scott Stark’s release from prison was plastered all over the media.
From the WHIH Exclusive to Scott actually walking out of San Quentin, it was all over the place.
At least to Scott it felt that way.
And it felt the same way to Tony. His poor kid brother, hasn’t he gone through enough?
The media liked taking his story and pulling it apart to serve whatever purpose they wanted, whether it was for or against Scott, it didn’t really matter.
On the day Scott was released, there was so much media coverage that San Quentin had to do some crowd control just so Scott could leave.
Thankfully, Luis’s van was so opposite to what the public expected a Stark - even a Stark like Scott who didn’t really care about the flashy, extravagant stuff - to ride in that no one really noticed that he did leave until it was too late.
After that, Tony tried to get in contact with Scott, but there were a couple of problems involved with that.
His little brother had no phone and no current address.
Maggie, still working through her own grievances about Scott’s arrest and the divorce, did help Tony by telling him that Scott had crashed at his cellmate’s place and he would have better luck looking there.
But there was a problem with that too.
Luis said he hadn’t seen Scott in a while. He did tell Tony about the job and old man have safe and why Scott wanted to take the job in the first place, but Luis hadn’t seen him since after they left empty handed.
Scott Stark had gone completely off the grid.
And that worried Tony to no end.
Where the hell did his baby brother go????
Tony’s at the Avengers compound and contemplating going to some extreme measures to look for Scott and make sure he’s safe when JARVIS informs him there’s an intruder on the premises and the Falcon was in pursuit.
“Sir, the intruder seems to be an individual who can manipulate his size.”
“Well, that’s new.”
Then after a beat…“Sir, I really think you should take a look at this.”
“Kinda busy, J. Looking for Scotty, remember?”
“SIR…you really need to see this. It appears Scott is the intruder.”
 And of course, Tony is like what????
He has JARVIS pull up the security feed to find Scott and Sam standing on the roof talking.
Sure enough, there he is. Plain as day, looking no worse for wear and in a really cool suit.
Scott can grow and shrink? And fight? And grow and shrink??
Since when? What in the world is going on?
Tony is too engrossed in the whole fight and the fact that that is his little brother fighting the Falcon - and apologizing multiple times over it too - that it never registers that Tony should suit up and go out there and intervene.
Nor does it register (yet) that Scott is there to retrieve something either
But by the time he finally overcomes his trance and thinks to get out there, Scott’s gone and the fight is over.
After it registers why Scott was there, Tony does some looking in that storage unit to find there’s a lot of old Stark Industries stuff from when Grandpa Howard was in charge and some old SHIELD stuff too.
Wait…didn’t the Stark boys’ dad say something about how Grandpa Howard knew a guy at SHIELD working on trying to create that kind of technology way back in the day?
That’s when Tony does some intense digging into old SHIELD files.
It takes longer than he anticipated, but low and behold what does he find? Dr. Henry (Hank) Pym. And where does he live and where is his company located? San Francisco.
How about that.

If you had to cast one new actor in Euphoria Season 3, who would it be? What role could you see them playing?
Oooh fun question!! Sorry I missed it earlier!
Camila Mendes as Maddy's older sister please! Maybe she moved away for school or career reasons and either she can come back and provide some much needed guidance and softness and care for Maddy, or Maddy can go stay with her and they can live their best cunty (affectionate) lives together!
Also, Maddy having an older sister would explain how her parents are just out here letting her do whatever tf whenever tf she wants lmao, that was hella unrealistic to me, our parents are stupid protective and shelter us as much as possible (unless you're a boy... ugh)
(I know she's a brasileira and not mexican like alexa, but it's slim pickins for latinas out there ya know, alternatively Sam hire me and also put me in the writer's room lol)

Critical Role, Campaign 3 Episode 40
Got him again, clearly. Wow, he looks ESPECIALLY frustrated with this time's intro.
Sam's new skit being styled like THE WORST RADIO PRESENTATION EVER is absolutely priceless. Letting Sam loose on the sampling board was a trip, the others are dying of laughter. Marisha in particular is just paralytic ... I love it.
Ugly Christmas sweater! Matt: "That us delightfully ugly!" And A CHETNEY HAT!!! I WANT ONE!!!
Love them geeking on the action figures too. So adorable!
Sam us clearly getting too enamoured of that soundboard, by the way ...
Ah ... AAAAAAAAAH!!! That's right! Imogen's mum's alive! Okay! Here we go!
Yes! Talk to her again! Come on, girl! No time to waste! Yes, I know it's a lot but SERIOUSLY, this us a big deal! And Laudna's just being SO SWEET about it ...
She's being so evasive ... I mean loving and concerned but also really evasive ... one more chance at a message ... yes, force the point!
She "couldn't stay without knowing what she is" ... that is LOADED. She sends too ... yeah, I thought so, she's trying to keep Imogen safe by staying incognito. Yeah, she ain't budging on this, but then neither is Imogen. Wow, she really is her mother's daughter.
Come on Laudna, cheer our girl up! That's it! Yes! God this undead lady's just so lovable. :3
Stop sleeping in the supply closet you two!
So they go up on deck and walk STRAIGHT INTO the aftermath of that crazy Chetney scrap ... Imogen's reaction I'd priceless and totally understandable.
Boy is this a night for EXTREME REVELATIONS or what?
Oh yeah, Orym and Fearne still need healing too. Like all this heart to heart is goi g on and they're just stood there bleeding on the deck.
Fearne STILL likes the idea of becoming a werewolf faun, that's so wild ...
Orym continues to be the warm calm centre to this whole thing snd I love it.
Chetney's like FALLING DOWN exhausted on his feet ... oof ... they wake FCG and Ashton up znd Ashton's just ANNOYED he missed it all! XD FCG heals Chet and he wakes up SO HIGH ...
Ashton: "Raise your hand if you think you might turn on all of us." Fearne insists she wouldn't. NOBODY believes her. No, I don't either. She's like a TOTAL chaos gremlin, that's only gonna get MORE dangerous ...
Pate! Okay ... the now living Pate is giving FCG a massive existential crisis. XD "Am I just THAT but with a wheel?"
The group wonder who's gonna be next to glair up ... once again votes are cast for Fearne. No surprise there ...
Orym sends a message to Dorian through the Stone ... oh man ... come on Liam, don't do this to us right now.
Ashton and Orym have a heart to heart ... angry rock man trying to be sweet snd supportive is weird but also surprisingly effective. And it's kind of working too, Orym is OPENING UP to him! Oh man ... little man SEEMS LIKE he has it so together and yet ...
Ashton really just hopes he gets to punch a werewolf sometime. Yes, mate. We hope you will too.
And Orym hugs Ashton. :3
Matt's gonna have Robbie record a message back to Orym ... that's so cute, I can't wait ...
Next day ... Laura rolls 7 ... mild turbulence but otherwise all us well. Phew ...
Oooh ... beautiful scary country ...
Day 5 and Liam rolls the Ruidus dice to get them bad times ... but he rolls WELL. Smooth sailing.
Next day ... Bassuras again ... familiar ground ... Taliesin rolls a 3 ... Matt has him roll again ... 2. OOF!!! Bad wind! Not good!
Okay, they are now in A FLAT SPIN!!! But they get out of it ... once again still no MAJOR problems ...
Desk comes and Chetney wants somebody to TIE HIM UP!!! XD He gets some manacles ... here we go. Oh boy, this us getting all kinds of kinky all of a sudden ...
New day ... 3 ... okay ...
Dog sized bird creatures ... hmmm ... not good. A dozen or so ... Laura: "Sam doesn't know what a dozen is." Sam: "So that's like twenty?"
FCG attempts to communicate with them to ward them off znd they don't respond, instead attacking ... argh, 3 points of piercing damage! AND HE'S POISONED?!!! Shit!
Okay, COMBAT!!! Here comes OH MY GOD THAT IS ANOTHER AWESOME BATTLE MAP!!! Matt's craft powers have done him proud this time!
Roll initiative!
Top of the round and it's Orym! Yes, DASH MAN!!! DASH!!! Bait and Switch! Action Surge! Goading attack, and the creature fails to resist znd he DECAPITATES IT!!! Nice!
Fearne summons Mister and conjures her Flame Blade, then holds action. One of them moves into range and she ATTACKS ... ooop, rule check ... roll a D8 ... Ashley: "Oh, that's so terrible!" Still does dome damage, though ...
Oh shit ... Fearne is hit and POISONED!!! AAAAAH!!!
Orym takes a hit but gives as good as he gets ... and he manages to NOT get poisoned? Sweet!
Ashton swings and HITS!!! Holy fuck, he just PUNTED that fucker into oblivion! And ANOTHER HIT! He Gallaghers it's head!
Imogen uses a Sorcery point so she can Witchbolt TWO AT ONCE!!! But misses one ... bugger ... inflicts 21 points of damage on the other one, though!
Oh fuck ... turns out these things AREN'T attacking the ship, they're just RUNNING AWAY from something? Oh gods ...
Wait ... RONIN chose the monster? Really, Matt?
A CHIMERA!!! HOLY FUCK!!! This is SO BAD!!!
Chetney and Laudna are now SERIOUSLY messed up ALREADY!!! Oh gods ... and Imogen takes 9 points of slashing damage! Nooooo ...
Oh nice, FCG halves her damage ...
Laudna goes STRAIGHT into her Form of Dread! Crazy scary tree Form again, nice, she's totally adopting a holdover from Whitestone! Spiderclimb! AND Bane! Sweet!
Aha! Chetney unleashes the Scythe! Nice! Blood Curse of Bloated Agony? Holy fuck that sounds CRAZY ... and then he goes invisible! Nice, and no attack of opportunity cuz it can't see him!
FCG uses their sawblade on one of the creatures ... wait how does he get an advantage when his OPPONENT rolls a Nat 20? Hmmm ... clerics, man! Attack of opportunity ... MISS!!! Healing Word on Laudna for 13 points! Nice!
Whoa, do because she's within 100 feet of Pate due gets FULL HEALTH POINTS BACK?!!! Nice.
What? He's RESTRAINED? So NONE OF THAT HAPPENED? Seriously, Matt?
Okay, so he's no longer restrained ... but still messed up ...
Orym fucks ip another creature then makes a pushing attack so he PUNTS IT over the side ... doesn't kill it but it's MESSED UP.
Ah, so Fearne has magical resistance ... Nice, straight 20 means she shrugs off the effect! Goody ... THREE HITS on the Chimera! Okay, ANOTHER rule check ... Ashley's getting SO POWERFUL she doesn't know what she's capable of now! I love that ...
66 POINTS of fire damage! Sweet!
Mister gets to use his crazy little Percy pistol! Yay!
Now the Chimera's distracted the other beasties are BOOKING!!! That's helpful at least ...
Ashton slides in and rages as he tries to smash it in the leg ... 13 points of damage! And another 15! Nice one! Chimera is trashed but still kicking ...
Imogen ... whoa, super red glowy craziness? Whoa ... WHAT DID SHE JUST SUMMON?!!! SERIOUSLY, that thing is TERRIFYING!!!
Laura is doing some crazy scary stuff that we can't fathom while still wearing THAT HAT!!! It's so surreal ... 0.0
Chimera tries to attack the Shade (so THAT'S what it is) and fails ... but HITS on Imogen! Ooof ... but Laudna uses Silvery Babs and reduces the attack roll and it MISSES Imogen after all! Beautiful!
Laudna rolls a NAT 20 and FUCKS UP the goat head! Nice one! She dispatches Pate to deliver Shocking Grasp on it! Ooooooh! But rolls 12 ... miss! Bollocks ...
Chetney licks Turmoil's blade ... okay ... but now the blade's ON FIRE!!! Double hit! 23 points of damage? Ooof ... and TWELVE POINTS OF THUNDER DAMAGE!!! Holy shit ...
But Chetney's within range if the Shade, is he affected by its range effect? Oh thank the gods, he saves ...
More Spiritual Weapon badassery from FCG!
Stay Puft flaming hand escape! I love it!
Orym gets 14 points if slashing damage and one of the heads is just HANGING OFF right now! Sweet.
Fearnd gets a POING BLANK shot on the Chimera with the ballista ... 19 points of damage ... Matt: "How do you wanna do this?"
She KEBABS IT. Fearne: "Get off my airship."
Chetney tries to touch the Shade and takes 2 D6 of psychic damage! Oops ...
Imogen doesn't know how to get rid of the Shade ... so she just asks it to go away AND IT WORKS!!! Okay ... they're all concerned and I can't blame them. Although Ashton thinks it's cool, so ...
Ashton asks what it felt like to Chetney and he says it was like all the children jn the world were giving him their toy orders at the same time. "As if one mind could handle that all at once ..."
Another day down and they get a long rest do they're healed up again ... phew ...
Weird coloured jungle ahead ... oh, so THIS is the Gloomed Jungle? Okay ... creepy.
Matt: "And that's where we're gonna take a break!"
Laura was trying to draw it and it ended up just looking like a mouth with loads of pubes ... hmmm ...
Wait ... I don't think I've seen that Matt Mercer figurine before ... that's a new bit, I swear! Ashley: "Loot his corpse and take his vest!" XD
Back to the game ... and Matt is once again having to deal with their unruliness. "Look, I'm hollow inside."
Shit roll ... okay, this should be fun ...
Ooooh ... it's getting all dark and moody ... this is not a good sign, is it?
Chetney needs some new clothes, it seems ...
Lightning? Eep! Not good ... the rain's making the deck all slick, too. They lose half a day's travel because of this. Nuts.
So just ... "land in the jungle and howl?" That's it? Seriously? Oh, at dusk. Okay ...
Wow ... Chetney's getting SO EXCITED about this, it's kind of adorable but also a little disturbing at the same time. Hmmm ... Travis coming up with all this poetic stuff for how they all smell to Chetney. I love that.
This is a moody place, but also kind of beautiful. I might actually start liking this place.
Fearne just looks over Chetney's head and spots EXACT signs of civilisation ... or maybe not. Hmm ...
Oh, so they're landing at the ruins. Okay ...
Wait ... so this might not actually go how they want? I mean these guys are WEREWOLVES, people! Are you still set on this plan of action?
Whoa, so Chetney KILLED the werewolf that turned him ... crazy backstory goodness! XD
Hahaha ... Chetney clearly has NO IDEA how old he is. Did Travis just ROLL to see how old Chetney is? Ah ... apparently he is 700 YEARS OLD now ...
The return of Recognise The Alpha ...
I love how Fearne is just humouring Chetney on his building himself up, it's really quite cute.
Matt says the top of the tower FEELS STABLE ... oh, he's making THAT FACE again, what are you planning, Matthew?
FCG still has no sense of smell, of course ...
Ashton casts Pass Without A Trace and then they make a shit load of noise climbing down so it's kind of negated ...
Oh, so this is a FUNGAL jungle, then ... ba-dum-tish! XD
Chetney: "Okay, we're gonna light this candle." He tears off his skin at his Adam's apple and FCG casts Eagle's Splendour on him ... yeah, that is a MAGNIFICENT howl.
Okay, this is taking a little while, clearly ... AN HOUR?!!! Really? This is NOT looking good.
Fearne transforms into a wolf to help him. Fearne: "Okay ... I'm a wolf." Everybody cracks up. XD
They ALL howl ... and NOW they get a response. Okay, they're A LONG WAY off fight now. They're gonna wait, it seems.
Night falls but the shitty weather continues. Laudna says a fire. Orym sits with Wolf Fearne to keep an eye out ... and Imogen uses Mage Hand to keep the rain off them! :3
Oh, okay ... somebody's coming. Something, anyway ... hmm ... is it stalking Laudna? Oh dear ...
Laudna asks Pate to do an interpretative dance ... oh my gods Marisha is beatboxing and Matt is dancing like a lunatic. That's love, baybee! XD
Okay, now there's TWO of them ... fuck, this guy is BIG. Ooh ... okay, he's definitely got a big barbarian thing going on ... WERETIGER?!!! Holy fuck ...
Divasheela ... cool name. Wow, she's pretty awesome ... oh, now there's a PANTHER one too! And another werewolf. A WEREBOAR!!! AND A WEREBEAR!!! Fuck, this is so cool ...
Chetney does a Magic Mike and wolfs out! XD
Divasheela is ... less than impressed, it seems. Hmmm ... that said, they seem receptive enough.
Whoa ... did Chetney really just almost make them all attack the airship? Oops, I guess?
Okay, so they're going into the woods, then ...
Now Imogen is RIDING THE WEREBOAR. Okay ...
"The Zigzag Return?"
Awwwww ... Orym is riding Fearne. :3 and Laudna is riding the panther. Okay ... is he FLIRTING WITH HER?!!! Laudna turns herself into crazy creepy bark armour on him and he finds it scary but he's also into it. XD
Aaaaaaaand now they're lost. Or maybe not ...
Okay, normal forms! Here we go ... yeah, they seem like a nice, likeable bunch now, actually. Oh, so here we are. Barinak. It's pretty cool here, actually.
Yeah, from the look of it this is just PEOPLE. Like a regular community, really. I can see why they're so dead set on keeping it secret, then.
Ah, so Divasheela was originally Annaline. Okay.
Oh boy ... so Chetney's not the only one who's having problems with Ruidus of late. Hmmm ...
She recognises Chetney as another Blood Hunter. Cool. Oh, so this training is gonna take WEEKS?!!! Yeah, that's not gonna work ...
Okay ... so Chetney losing his cool is Zbigniew deal ... but NOT a deal breaker, at least. That's good, I guess. FCG suggests they leave him here for a few weeks ... ummm ... okay, is that an option right now?
Court of the Lambent Path? Okay ... sounds fancy ...
Oooh, statue symbolism ... hmm ... is this a major clue? Sayhaadon? Okay ...
Orym is currently just sizing everybody up - Know Your Enemy - as potential opponents, and some of them look pretty dangerous ...
Ah, so Sayhaadon is an aspect of the Wildmother. Cool. I wonder if FCG can do something with that, then.
Tiny Steve Brule gnome ... okay ... is this someone I should know about? ^^; What do you want? I'm not the most well informed person ever, guys ... oh, Tarad. Okay.
Ah ... yeah, so Imogen's like YUCK over this food, then. Backstory ...
Not three heads but three SNOUTS ... well that's just even weirder, then.
Ashton wants a drink. They offer him water ... oh, is he going to kick off about that? Oh, so they have wine? Yeah, all right. That'll do.
So if someone completely loses it the Gorgynei are charged with making sure they don't become a danger to others. Yeah, kind of figured as much. And chains! Yeah. Also makes sense.
Chetney is really making out that he's more confident than he is. "Willpower is 10 out of 10!" Yeah ...
Divasheela asks if they're willing to take Chetney out if he becomes a threat ... oh boy, this doesn't bode well. Oh, so they're gonna stick around for him to do the training after all? 2 and half weeks ... oh yeah, that could work, actually.
Ashley rolls high for insight and gets whispers! Sam has a plug prepared for once! Much better!
Yeah, it's getting LATE. Find somewhere to sleep. They call for Tarad ... FCG, what the hell was THAT noise?
Treehouse guest houses? Sweet! Oooh, and furs! Cool.
Okay, I really don't know if I KNOW that particular quote actually ...
Bedtime, then. Tree cave Tweecave? Cue Matt pretending to have a speech impediment.
Matt: "And THAT'S where we're gonna call it a night."
So what IS Tarad's were form? Damn it, now I'm curious. Votes are being cast for weresquirrel, apparently ...

Rewatching Lucifer Rising
Welcome to “Dean Is a Cat and We Want Cheeseburgers: A Supernatural Rewatch Blog” with Lor and Mace!
Up today, s4e22: Lucifer Rising.
The cold open shows Azazel possessing a priest in 1972 and doing a ritual to speak to Lucifer. Luci tells him that he needs Lilith to break the seals that imprison him and that Azazel should look for a special boy. In the present, Sam and Ruby are after one of Lilith’s minions, planning to extract info from her and then have Sam drink up so he will be powerful enough to kill Lilith. Meanwhile, Dean is grump about Sam, and Bobby rips him a new one over it. Dean is then mysteriously zapped to a luxurious “Green Room,” where Zach and Cas explain that they’re keeping him safe because it’s inevitable that the last seal with be broken. Dean calls Sam and leaves a voicemail apologizing for being a dick, but the message Sam receives has been altered into an abusive rejection, which spurs Sam on in his plan. Back in the GR, Zach explains that heaven *wants* the apocalypse so they can bring about heaven on earth—and drops the fact that Dean is destined to kill Lucifer. Dean then argues with Cas that the angel *knows* that letting so many people die in an apocalypse is wrong, and Cas eventually comes round, in a bit of business that is approximately a floppitygillion times more homoerotic than it needed to be (we’re good with it). Cas banishes Zach with a sigil, tells Dean that *killing* Lilith is the final seal, and takes them to Chuck the Prophet to find out where Sam is. An archangel shows up to stop this, Cas stays to hold him off (die), and Dean goes after Sam. He’s too late, though. Sam kills Lilith, her blood flows through a weird spiral whoozit, and Ruby reveals that she’s been working with Lilith all along to bring this about. Sam holds Ruby, Dean stabs her with the demon knife, Lilith’s blood completes its journey through the spiral, and FADE TO WHITE.

The Big Boy
It is hard to let it go especially, when it is the only hope in that time. But sometimes it's better to let it go maybe your destiny is about to be fulfilled. They called him Rude boy; this is well known name in the street he was living that time somewhere in Africa. His real name is Rudolph, after his secondary education his journey in education was over. his grade was too low to continue to high school education, unless he was able to afford middle colleges. His parents were unable to afford.
The day result came out Rudolph was chilling at spot waiting his passenger for his boda-boda. After finishing his secondary education, he was given motorcycle for boda-boda by one of the bosses in town. so, when he was at his spot his girlfriend came and having conversation.
Rude: Hey!! Abi (after seeing her approach at his spot)
Abi: Abee mchumba!!
Rude: came over (he gives her hug when she arrives).
Abi: how is your day.
Rude: as you see sunny and hot day. (Says with disappointment)
Abi: hot day huh (touch Rude's cheek).
Rude: yeah, but your hotter (touching her waist)
Abigail was his girlfriend since he started secondary, so they were all in same class. Abigail was beautifully girl dark skin, good body shape impressive height, sometime Rude asking himself how he still with her. For that time Abigail was working in his uncle's restaurant, this uncle was the boss who gives Rude motorcycle for boda-boda. Abigail connects Rude to him.
During their conversation, Sam one of Rude follow boda-boda interrupt
Sam: oooh! lovebirds (he was parking his motorcycle)
Rude and Abi:(laugh silently.)
Sam: did you see the news online.
Rude: enh mzee wa udaku! what news is that?
Sam: results are ready.
Abi: result for what? (Not paying attention).
Sam: Your examination results.
Now passing the silent, both of them were surprised. Sam laughed move going shop direction. Rude taking his phone starting browsing, after time he show his phone to Abi.
Rude: I will forever be doing this job (says in sad tone)
Abi: Don't say like that you can go to college. you are not that worse (says to comfort him while she is holding his hand).
