charles renewalgate, PR insights

charles renewed! yay! but was it an ordinary renewal announcement? hell no! so let's unpack that!

first interesting thing about the announcement was the leaking of it in the morning by spanish press. "Carlos Miquel leaked the news about the announcement earlier today; we can see what type of articles he wrote before, as we know he has links with the sainz family" which was very odd by itself because even the closest journalists of ferrari didn't know. it's all part of fred's 2024 strategy of tightening the access to information from maranello.

so the leak obviously came from the carlos gang who knew about it internally. why would they leak it? questionable. people discuss it's to gain public sympathy for carlos who is still struggling to lock a contract (and holds his singapore win as the great reason why he shouldn't be dropped).

then we got new information today about carlos talking with audi:

🚨 | Audi is a possible alternative for Sainz if progress isn't made in Ferrari negotiations.

Both parties will consider their options as talks waver

this is him applying the charles 2023 strategy when he used the red bull move allegations to put pressure on ferrari between qatar-las vegas (also known as the lestappengate)

now moving on, what was odd about the charles contract? not specifying its length. we got multiple quotes: CHARLES: "Today we are announcing that i'm signing for more years" FERRARI: "Charles Leclerc who therefore will continue to drive for the Italian team in the Formula 1 World Championship beyond the 2024 season."" CHARLES: "I’m very pleased to know that I will be wearing the Scuderia Ferrari race suit for several more seasons to come." the way the length is not specified is simply odd. it's not usual for a driver/team to not specify the timeline. only lance has that, but for different reasons as you may know. pr statements like these are SO perfectly curated, they go through multiple people, so this is a very deliberate choice. how it will unpack? we'll have to see.

charles took creative control of the announcement. while ferrari posted the classic graphic - a standard for renewals in f1 for other teams, charles went above and beyond and with his creative PR team put together a personal video that he even composed a song for. INSANITY. what does it say? compared to other announcements, he made it his own. and ferrari let him. why? because now he can, and they let him do it because he most likely negotiated all that and they just have to support him and not be the main source of his public pr -- he now has his own PR moves that he prioritizes over the ferrari ones.

f1 is going crazy! they posted a supercut of charles moments which is not a standard move at all, usually they just post the renewal graphic. they also teased the announcement with a few charles focused clips in the past week leading up to today.

why? well, it comes down to Stefano Domenicali, the CEO of F1 who has a lot of influence on the sport. he was vocal about a missing rivalry in the sport, and how the red bull dominance decreased interest in the sport as of recent. charles is exactly what they need, they want people to promise an intense red bull/ferrari rivalry so pushing charles on social platforms helps form the narrative.

i will further explore all interesting insights in the new tag: ferrari renewalgate bc i am noisy

GANG IT IS THURSDAY AND THEREFORE MATH DAY MILD SPOILERS AHOY

So we got another 3-chapter episode for ep 10 👀 and next episode is gonna be the dragon fight, which is 3 chapters long

So there’s one of two ways this can go:

1) dragon fight extends over 2 episodes, which keeps us on course to end the season at chapter 50 (boo)

2) the dragon fight is another 3-chapter episode, which could work because a lot of it is in bullet time, and we get to 52 this season and maybe more (yay)

And listen we all know why I want that (I crave Lycion merch goddammit) and since the last dragon-fighty chapter is largely flashbacks and Important Falin Adventures, there’s a non-zero possibility we’ll get it

We’ll know next week

Also though: I caught something weird in the episode

The governor of the island said he was given the island by the king of the elves

There. There isn’t a king. The ruler of the Western elves is a queen, who texts Pattadol naked for some reason at the very end, and has been for long enough that a king isn’t even mentioned in the Adventurer’s Bible

I haven’t got the official translation of that chapter of the manga, so I can’t say it isn’t in that, but the scans I’ve seen have translated that line as the governor being given the island by the elven kingdom

So I dunno if the anime’s gonna replace the queen, or the governor’s just wrong, it’s just kinda weird

Double also, big sad that Namari didn’t get to have the rest of her hang out with the twins, it wasn’t exactly plot relevant I’m just sad about it

#delicious in dungeon #delicious in dungeon spoilers #dungeon meshi #dungeon meshi anime #dungeon meshi spoilers #my kingdom for a longer season tbh #i just want my favourite fucked up little guys

As a writing choice it just seems stupid that they added in things from season 2 without focusing on the important parts of season 1.

I guess the gang won't end up chased by a knowledge loving creepy owl that detested his knowledge being used for war, again a core part of the story. Getting to see the scary owl (Wang shi tong) in the live action felt so unnecessary that if they actually have him show up in the library (if they even visit a library - I have a feeling they won't) I won't feel even mildly the same kind of terror I felt when I saw him in the cartoon. The live action doesn't even emphasise his love for knowledge which was a core part of his character in the original instead they make a joke about how only aang can understand him :)

I'm assuming we will still be returning to Omashu but I guess no cave of the lovers then, no special moment between aang and katara, no sokka losing his mind over the lack of common sense, no extensive probably on drugs singing, no foreshadowing to the role of the badgermoles (that basically set up toph) and how the music was what calmed them down because they listen first (the essence of book two) instead hey katara and sokka sibling moment, the badgermoles can sense your love yay the audience needed to know you guys loved each other woohoo, wow ya'll got to aang just in time to save him from crushing bumi, wow, standing ovation, incredible writing.

I was going to write a long paragraph about how they are revealing too much about zuko too soon which significantly takes away from his season 2 story line but just no. Zuko was supposed to be the villain of season 1, it's what made his redemption arc so poignant. The audience through season 2 with just one episode on his past were in tears, the live action does not need to shove how sad and depressing his story is down anyone's throat. His story was appreciated because it made you think.

The more I think about this live action, the more angry I get because pls don't call it a good adaptation, it's not. It's a fine and enjoyable (arguable) story if you can't remember the nuance of the cartoon but that's it.

blue exorcist: shimane illuminati saga - season 3, eps 1-12 general thoughts on the season. but first: 1) YAY, THE ANIME'S BEEN RENEWED FOR ANOTHER SEASON, YAY YAY YAY

2) blue exorcist is pretty much the reason i dropped solo leveling mid-watch of ep8. i'd watch them on the same day, and my enjoyment of blue exorcist was so in contrast with my non-enjoyment of solo leveling that it just became cumbersome to try to keep up.

3) i haven't read the manga

-i loved the gang's interactions. i loved their dynamics and i loved their personalities.

-i thought izumo's arc was very interesting and very well-executed. it took time to bring her to a point that she could accept change, and it all felt so earned and delicate and grounded.

-i found some parts of the overall story a bit rushed, but not enough to deter my enjoyment. it was just a bit like "oh, we're past this already?"

-i screamed when shima turned out to be a spy and i kept hoping that he'd turn out to be on our side, and, well, he is, so yay, but also is he? XD can we trust him, truly? i trust konekomaru's view on shima more than i trust shima himself, you know? and it goes past the "is shima actually betraying us as we speak?" issue, it's the matter of shima's character. NOW he might not be betraying us, but can we actually trust that he won't betray us for one reason or another? idk idk like yeah sure, we can't fully trust mephisto because he's mephisto yada yada, but at least we know we share the same ultimate goal with mephisto, whereas shima is just. a complete wild card.

-i loved seeing the girlies come closer

-i wish yukio would talk to rin, man, i wish he would -.-

-i teared up during the credits of the last ep, that's how much i was enjoying being with the gang

Henry Danger Reader Insert | Captain Man x Reader: SEASON 1

Episode 24: Henry & the Bad Girl, Part 1

~Junk-N-Stuff~

It had been a tough time for Swellview's crimefighters lately. The police and Captain Man had been plagued by a pesky criminal gang know, as 'The Wall Dogs', who found their kicks in defacing countless buildings, statues and other structures around the city. They were relentless, annoying and slippery, which was making Ray's life extra difficult.

The large man was sat upstairs in the store, (y/n) by his side as per usual, and they were both studying some images of the graffiti done by the gang. Their most recent hit had been on the library and the desperate police had even offered a $10,000 reward for the gang's capture. The sight of their work made Ray wretch, so the woman rubbed his back soothingly.

"Take it easy. I can look at them if you don't want to." She told him, taking a second to admire his jazzy shirt. It was one of her favourites, probably because of how it stretched over his broad shoulders and revealed the way his biceps flexed under the smooth skin on his arms.

"No, no, I can do this." He grunted, flicking through more of the photos. He had a lot of hate for these guys and their crimes made him sick to his stomach. He kept groaning even as Henry and Charlotte entered the shop, his stressed mood making him angrily check his watch as they smiled at him and (y/n).

"You guys are late for work." He snapped at the confused teens, who were barely late. 

"It's only 3:31," Henry said, checking on his phone just in case they had made some mistake.

"We're one minute late," Charlotte told him, puzzled as to why he was so tetchy.

"Yeah. You know how much crime can happen in one minute?" Ray asked them.

"No."

"How much?" The teens replied in tentative voices, not wanting to upset him further. (y/n) sighed as she followed him over to where the kids were standing; she knew he was frustrated with himself and the lack of The Wall Dog's capture, but that didn't mean he should take out his anger on Henry and Charlotte.

"Literally none." The woman answered, trying to keep a lid on his temper.

"But none of us are going to rest till we catch these dang Wall Dogs." The man growled. (y/n) could agree with that, these assholes were ruining the town with their 'art' and she wanted them to face justice.

"Okay, chill out," Henry told Ray, not seeing why he was getting so worked up. They had gone up against loads of irritating criminals before, why was he letting the Wall Dogs get to him?

"It's just a graffiti gang," Charlotte added, the kids walking to the back so they could ditch their backpacks.

"Oh god, don't set him off again." (y/n) muttered to them, as Ray began to titter next to her. Yeah, she wanted him to catch them, but she'd heard enough of his moaning and complaining over the past couple of days. 

"Yeah. And graffiti is a crime." Rau seethed.

"Are you okay?" Charlotte asked him timidly, seeing that he was upset about the gang.

"Because we don't get why you're this upset about graffiti," Henry explained for the two of them and the young woman put her hand on Ray's shoulder as he tensed up. She had watched his body language, picking up his tell-tale signs of sadness and seeing him so stressed made her upset too.

"Do you wanna know? Do you?" The superhero turned away with pained eyes, not wanting them all to see his weakness, especially (y/n). It would only make her worry and he tried to limit her sources of anxiety as much as possible. 

"I don't know." Charlotte stuttered, feeling like she stumbled onto a sore point.

"I really don't care either way." Henry shrugged. He was less attuned to picking up on other people's feelings, but Ray ignored his tone and started his story.

"It was thirty years ago. It was long before I was indestructible. Oh, that day." He whispered, tears collecting the corners of his eyes as he remembered that fateful day. 

~Flashback~

"Yay. Yay. What a great day this is." A four-year-old Ray exclaimed as he ran around his yard with a hobby horse, a huge grin etched on his face. His shirt flapped behind him, the vibrant pattern of the same splendour of his shirts as an adult. 

His fun was interrupted as a group of mean, older-looking kids kicked open the gate and waltzed up to him.

"Hey. What's up?" The ringleader said, his face twisted into a sneer as he looked at all of Ray's toys scattered across the grass. 

"Oh, hi. My name's Ray. Do you guys wanna play?" The soon-to-be superhero smiled cutely, but his toothy grin made no difference to the gang's stern glares.

"We want to play." The leader hissed, as his friends snatched the hobby horse from Ray's little hands and threw it into the bushes. They restrained the poor kid, who cried out as they treated him so cruelly.

"Do his playhouse!" The meanest kid ordered his friends and they began to spray paint on his pride and joy. It was a gift from his father and it was her favourite thing to play in. Seeing it defaced and ruined broke his little heart.

"No! Not my playhouse! No! Don't! NO GRAFFITI!" He shouted at them, watching helplessly as they continued to paint crude symbols and words on the plastic.

"This is something I'll never forget!!!" He cried out and the destruction of his playhouse became a key point in his childhood, cementing his hatred of The Wall Dogs and their graffiti forever.

~End of flashback~

Ray finished his story, (y/n) hugging his back with her arms around his waist. The story always made her upset. She'd heard it a million times and he always worded it the same, which had gotten a little boring after seven years, but the emotion was still there. Hearing about little Ray's anguish made her heart break and she wished she had been born a few years earlier so she could have stopped it.

"I never forgot it." He said sadly, his hands stroking the arms that had encircled his waist. She was always there to comfort him as he was for her and it warmed his insides to know that she cared so much for him. If only he knew the extent her care for him went.

"Okay, well, don't worry, man. We'll find the Wall Dogs and we'll stop them." Henry reassured his boss as he took a seat on the little couch in the store. He pulled (y/n) onto his knee, craving the scent of her shampoo since it was like a safety blanket for him. It meant that she was close and he wasn't alone, so he relished its fruity fragrance.

"But they say there's a bunch of them. How are we gonna stop them all?" Charlotte quizzed, knowing that rounding up an entire posse of artistic criminals who all had each other's backs was going to be an enormous task.

"Easy. You wanna kill a snake, what do you do?" (y/n) looked at the kids, a devious plan forming in her head. She was trying to ignore the way Ray was nuzzling her hair since the smell of his cologne and hot breath on her ear was making her dizzy. His nose brushed the curve of her ear and her hair stood on end as she held in a delicate whimper. 

'Children in the room, best friend behind you!' She blinked, her screaming mind being the complete opposite of her calm face.

"Get a shotgun." Charlotte nodded, thinking that if she came face to face with one of the slippery reptiles, she'd not take any chances.

"No, jeez." (y/n) frowned, standing up from Ray's lap and looking at the kids. The large man stayed behind her, choosing to wrap his arms around her tummy so she'd stay near him. He was feeling particularly clingy and he couldn't help but rest his chin on her head.

"I meant, to stop the whole gang, we just have to capture the leader of the gang. Y'know, go for the head?" She hinted and they all nodded as they finally understood her. Charlotte gave her a minuscule smirk, nodding subtly at how Ray wouldn't leave her alone and the older girl flushed slightly.

"Yeah. Let's go." She nodded at Charlotte, untangling herself and stepping away from the needy man. Ready to get to work, the females walked to the elevator together, leaving Ray and Henry to chat amongst themselves for a few moments. 

"So, uh...you getting cosy with (y/n) there?" Henry mentioned to his boss, a knowing smirk working its way onto his face. He had seen the way Ray hugged her and nestled into her neck, how the man didn't notice her pleased shivers blew his mind. 

"What?" Ray asked, not seeing how intimate the two of them had been. That was normal for them, the true sentiment was dulled by their fear of rejection and a life of loneliness. 

"You guys are so gross." The boy shrivelled his face up, thinking about how lovey-dovey the couple were.

"We are not!" His boss exclaimed, a blush creeping up past his collar as the words sunk. He couldn't help it if the young woman was so damn irresistible.

"Dude, you're disgusting." Henry teased, walking away from Ray so he could follow the girls downstairs.

"We're just friends!" Ray spluttered, but it was the same excuse as always and it was starting to wear Henry and everyone else down.

"Lies!" Henry laughed, knowing that as much as Ray denied it, he was completely in love with his helper and she was utterly devoted to him.

~Down in the Man Cave~

"There." (y/n) turned the PearPad around so the teens could see. It had taken her a few minutes to find the right villain and she couldn't help but notice as she searched the databank, Ray was keeping a respectable distance between the two. It stung her a little bit and she wondered if something had happened whilst she had made the trip down with Charlotte and he was with Henry. 

"Yikes." The dark-haired girl cringed, looking at a man with a top hat and mask. He definitely had strong bad guy vibes and he gave Charlotte the creeps.

"Who's that?" Henry asked, squinting as he studied the criminal.

"Van Del. Watch," Ray growled and swiped the video onto the computer's monitor so they could watch it clearly. He had taken Henry's words to heart, thinking that he was invading (y/n)'s space too much and probably freaking her out by his nuzzling and wandering hands, so he decided to take a step back from all his cuddling. He didn't want to leave her soothing arms, but he would rather suffer on his own than be the source of her discomfort, even though she could never be unhappy in his embrace.

"I am Van Del, pack leader of the Wall Dogs. We are not criminals. We are not animals." The villain onscreen said, making the adults scoff in bemusement. 

"Could've fooled me, asshole." (y/n) muttered, folding her arms to replace the ones that were previously around her. They were no substitute, but they'd do; she'd survived years of pining so far, loneliness was a familiar enemy.

"We are artists. And these...these are are our weapons of artistic destruction. Prepare to be sprayed." The man said ominously, a can of spray paint poised to spray the camera lens, but his speech was interrupted by another, more motherly, voice.

"Vanny! You left your wet laundry in the washing machine!" The voice yelled, irritating Van Del.

"I'll move it in a minute, mom!" He shouted back, annoyed that his big moment was ruined by his mother's scolding.

"Edit that part out." He sighed, looking behind the camera as (y/n) paused the video.

"All right, we know he has a mother and a lazy editor," Henry commented, his observations not really helping their investigation. This was going to be a long process.

~Later that night~

Ray and Henry had been staking out the Big Putts golf course for over two hours, their eyes peeled for any sign of the Wall Dogs. Choosing to hide behind the golf ball washer, they peered through their night vision goggles for any sign of criminal activity, but so far there was nothing.

"I don't think the Wall Dogs are coming here," Henry said to Ray, who was leaning over the hedgerow and taking a sip from his large soda.

"Schwoz said they are." The superhero replied, slurping his drink so he could get the caffeine he sorely needed to stay awake.

"Come on, it's after 2:00AM. Let's go." Henry complained, feeling fed up with the whole thing. 

"No, until those disgusting Wall Dogs show up here and we catch them, neither one of us leaves this spot." Captain Man told his sidekick firmly, but he was starting to feel the effects of the vast quantity of soda he'd drunk.

"Now, wait here. I gotta go pee." Ray added, waddling off to use any bathroom he could find, much to Henry's annoyance.

"You just said we can't leave this spot." The boy reminded him, but he really should've learnt by now that Ray Manchester just makes stuff up as he goes along. 

"I've had a gallon of soda. What goes in must come out." The man whined, his voice strained as he crossed his legs.

"Ugh, now I know why you have (y/n) as a babysitter." Henry joked to himself, but Ray had already left in search of the nearest place he could pee. Feeling bored, he put his gloved hand in front of his goggles and began to use it as a hand puppet.

"Braw! I'm the hand monster, grrrr!" He giggled, his childish actions taking his mind off the dull, yet perilous task he faced alone.

"Ah, it's fun to pretend." Kid Danger sighed, but his relaxed moment was quickly cut short as he heard voices coming from across the golf course. He ducked down into the shadows and watched as the Wall Cogs crept across the lawn. 

"Hey, come on. Let's tag the windmill." One of them said, all of the criminals agreeing. They each took out a can of spray paint and began to deface the large windmill on one of the holes. 

Sneaking out of his hiding place, Henry stepped out into the light, intent on catching the scum and bringing them to justice.

"Freeze, Wall Dogs!" He yelled at them, trying to be intimidating. They all halted, their fingers poised on their canister's nozzles.

"All right, now, I only have this one pair of handcuffs, but Captain Man's gonna be back in a second and he has more handcuffs. So, until he gets here—Hey, wait! Hey, hey, hey!l" Oh poor Henry, the poor kid really should've waited for his larger, more powerful, more experienced boss. He didn't stand a chance against the whole group and he was quickly swarmed by them. 

"Ha! Gotta, dude!" He managed to pull one to the ground and yank off their mask, but to his surprise/delight, it wasn't some rough and tumble guy, it was a very pretty girl.

"Woah, you're a girl dog." He breathed out in shock as the cute teen squared up to him.

"Thanks for noticing. Get 'im, Reeko!" She yelled in a distraction attempt, trying to take him down with a kick, but Henry was stronger and he managed to wrestle her onto the grass. Twisting her arm behind her back and locking his arm around her neck, he tried to immobilise her, but the girl was strong for her size.

"Let me go!" She yelled, her energy being sapped by the minute as she struggled against the teen superhero.

"Where's Van Del?" Henry grunted, as she escaped his grasp and they engaged in a heated fight.

"Who's Van Del?" The girl feigned ignorance, knowing that loose lips sink ships.

"You know, your leader," Henry said, trying to keep up with her blows.

"Never heard of him." Girl Dog replied, smirking at how she'd never tell Kid Danger her secrets.

"Oh, don't lie. You guys have been running around all over Swellview messing up buildings. Now, put your hands behind your back." Henry ordered her, his grip on her wrist like iron. The only question on his mind was, where the hell was Ray?

"Ugh. You're such a Herbert." The girl complained, hating how law-abiding he was.

"I am not a Herbert! What is a Herbert?" Henry gasped, resenting that she'd even suggest that even though he didn't understand what it meant.

"A dork. Someone who's lame. Someone who doesn't understand what the Wall Dogs stand for, which is artistic defiance. Herbert!" She snapped at him, baring her teeth in an animalistic snarl.

"Or maybe, you're just a punk who runs around town at night, wearing your dark clothes and dumb mask. Spray-painting stupid stuff because you're a loser." He countered in a harsher tone. He felt shocked at how strong his words were and his heart sank to his stomach when the girl began to sob at his words. Oh, shit, he made a girl cry. 

"All right. Oh, I'm sorry, no. I didn't mean what I said. Okay, hey..." Henry thought he'd really screwed up and he inched towards the girl to calm her down. However, when his fingertips touch her jacket, the girl flipped his wrists behind his back and put his handcuffs on him. Henry struggled as she locked him to the ball washer, smirking as she secured him in place.

"Dang it!" The boy exclaimed, knowing he had let his guard down stupidly. How would he explain this to Captain Man?

"So, I got to go now. Try not to miss me too much. Or this handcuff key." She smirked at him, tossing the key away into a nearby pond.

"This isn't over! You can run now, but sooner or later, I'm gonna find you." Henry told her, his hands writhing against the handcuffs in an attempt to get free, but without the key, it was futile. (y/n) and Schwoz had designed them specifically so they'd be nearly impossible to wriggle out of.

"Well, I'll make it easy for you. Meet me tomorrow night, midnight, right under the Swellview sign. Come alone." She said in a sultry voice, making Henry gulp silently.

"Alone?" Hey, what are you—No, you better not, please don't—" Kid Danger stuttered as the girl moved towards him and placed a soft kiss on his lips. Well, that had never happened before. 

"Isn't that more fun than fighting with me?" She teased him, looking very pleased with herself.

"No! Maybe. Kid of, I can't be sure unless you do it again." Even though she was the enemy, Henry was still a teen boy and teen boys like kissing girls, so he threw all morals outta the window for this girl.

"Maybe I will tomorrow night if you come alone." She insisted, hoping he'd fall for her honey trap. If she could get Kid Danger on the Wall Dogs' side, then Captain Man would be no problem for the gang.

"But I..." Girl or job? Girl or doing the right thing? It was a dilemma and Henry couldn't choose between his heart or his head.

"Bye, Herbert!" The girl said goodbye to him and ran off into the night. Typically, Ray jogged over just as the last criminal got away and Henry groaned. He was gonna be in so much trouble.

"Hey." Ray greeted his sidekick, feeling so much better now he didn't have a gallon of soda in his bladder.

"Hey," Henry replied timidly.

"I'm done peeing." The man smiled as if he'd accomplished some great feat. If only he knew Henry had let all the Wall Dogs get away, had kissed one of them and was going to meet her tomorrow night, he wouldn't be smiling then.

~The Man Cave~

So, not even the great Captain Man had the strength or knowledge to free Henry from the handcuffs. No key meant no freedom, so the man had had to cut through the ball washer and carry it all the way back to their headquarters so Charlotte and (y/n) could figure out a way to free him. 

"Will you guys hurry up and get these handcuffs off of me? I've had an itch for an hour and I can't scratch it," The boy said in a snappy tone, feeling achy after being in the same position for so long.

"Where's your itch?" Charlotte asked as she, (y/n) and Ray walked over to the kid so they could help him out.

"We'll scratch it for you," Ray told him, prepared to do anything to stop his complaining.

"Eh, I don't think you wanna do that," Henry replied, making them all cringe in disgust.

"Oh my god, you're an animal." (y/n) frowned at him, to which Henry only responded with an eye roll.

"Hey, give me one of my gumballs." He said to Ray and the man clumsily shoved one into the boy's mouth so he could get out of his icky uniform. He wiped his hand on Henry's shoulder as he looked at his best friend.

"Let me guess, you want me to try and pick the lock?" She knew that he had no clue how to help his sidekick, so she sighed and walked over to her toolkit so she could find something suitable for the job. Henry took the opportunity to turn back into his civilian self, breathing a sigh of relief at how much more comfortable he felt.

"Okay, try to unlock me." He said to the waiting girls, Charlotte having decided to learn from the best in the art of picking a lock. 

"Y'know, I don't understand you." Ray suddenly spoke up as they began to fiddle with the lock. 

"What I'd do?" Henry glared at his boss, feeling too tired to receive a scolding.

"You let all the Wall Dogs get away." The large man said, making (y/n) peer around the boy's body so she could see him.

"You can't say anything, you were off peeing, god knows where" She sassed him, but quickly returned to her work as Charlotte made a small breakthrough.

"Hey, I caught one. Till she tricked me and handcuffed me to this ball washer." Henry complained, but his words intrigued the females behind him.

"She?" Charlotte asked, stepping back from the lock for a moment as her friend stopped working. 

"You never said she was a girl." (y/n) pointed out, watching Ray's face frown in thought. She had a bad feeling about this.

"Well, she was. And she was really tough. And pretty, she had these...eyes...and this face." Henry slipped into a dreamy smile as (y/n) shared an amused look with Ray. Ah, young love...

"She had eyes and a face?" The man sassed his sidekick, thinking that he'd let himself get distracted.

"Well, at least we have a description of her." Charlotte jumped in, as the young woman next to her looked at Henry's flushing face. Wait a minute. She noticed something funny about him, something off, hold on...

"Why you looking at me?" Henry gulped nervously as the woman studied him, Ray coming over to look too. Sadly, he wasn't as observant as her and it would take her pointing out the subtle difference for him to see.

"What's on your lips?" She asked, recognising that they seemed a little too shiny and soft for Henry's lips. The boy paled as he suddenly felt very, very small.

"I don't know. Lip skin?" He stuttered, but (y/n) wasn't stupid and she could see through lies when she needed to. She ran her thumb across the boy's bottom lip and she didn't need to be a genius to know what it was. 

"Well, it's sticky, strawberry-scented and exactly like this lipgloss that pretty much every girl in Swellview is wearing right now." The young woman held up her own tube of strawberry cheesecake shine, knowing that if she was to compare its contents to the substance on Henry's lips, it would be a perfect, chemical match.

Ray looked at her in disbelief. He had loved seeing her soft lips all dewy and honey-like, it made him want to see if they really did taste like real strawberries as they said in the commercial, but now he felt sick to his stomach. If that's a girl lipgloss and it's on Henry, oh my god...

"Did you kiss that girl Wall Dog?" The superhero asked in a squeaky, hurt voice. His sidekick and the enemy? No!

"No!" He replied, making them sigh in relief, but the moment was short-lived.

"She kissed me." He added on the end and everyone groaned in annoyance, especially Ray.

"What?" The boy looked at his boss, wondering what the big deal was.

"You let your guard down and you let a criminal escape because the criminal happened to be a pretty girl?" Ray exclaimed in shock, thinking about how the kid could've been so careless. 

"An extremely pretty girl." Henry clarified as (y/n) and Charlotte finally cracked the lock. The boy sighed and rubbed his wrists as he straightened up.

"And that is how you get a dumb boy outta some handcuffs." The woman told Charlotte, swallowing when she saw her best friend's devastated face.

"Ray, I'm sorry. I really did try to catch the Wall Dogs." Henry reassured him, but (y/n) could tell that it didn't carry a lot of water.

"All right, I just wish we had more information," Ray said, letting his anger calm down before he could lose his temper.

"Like where their hideout is or where they're gonna strike next." (y/n) said with him as he refrained from pulling her into him, wanting to stay 'professional' like he thought she wanted. She wondered why he seemed so distant from her, thinking that he was upset with her.

"Did the girl that kissed you say anything that could help us find them?" Charlotte quizzed Henry.

"Or find her?" Ray added, folding his arms so they seemed less empty since they couldn't find the person they loved to hold most.

'Meet me tomorrow night, midnight, right under the Swellview sign. Come alone.' Henry remembered the girl's words, and he knew he had a choice to make. See her again (and kiss her again) or take her and the Wall Dogs, down. 

"No, she didn't say anything." He lied, his voice wavering as the words slipped out. He wanted to feel those lips on his again, so he couldn't help but lie to his friends, even if he was betraying them and his moral compass.

"Really? 'Cause, it looked like you were thinking about something." Ray told him, ignoring the way his skin tingled as (y/n)'s arm brushed his.

"Yeah, I smell bullshit." She looked at Henry suspiciously, sensing that he wasn't telling them something.

"What were you thinking about?" Charlotte asked, making the boy flounder for an answer. 

"Pizza." The kid answered lamely, making them look at him weirdly. Henry just shrugged and wandered over to the auto-snacked to get some of the cheesy Italian food, but his friends were still very suspicious.

"He's lying." (y/n) stood on her tiptoes and whispered Ray in Ray's ear. He shivered at the contact but kept his cool and he analysed his sidekick's body language.

"Yeah." He replied, knowing that something was coming and it left a unnerved feeling settle in his stomach. 

~The next night, midnight, behind the Swellview sign~

Henry just couldn't help it. He had to kiss that girl again, he just had to. She was intoxicating, her bad girl persona drew him to her like iron to a magnet. Donning his Kid Danger costume, he had made his way up the hazardous and gruelling mountain on which the Swellview sign was illuminated.

"Hey! Hello? Uh, girl?" Henry called out into the night, after jumping down from a rock with a thud.

"Uh, here, girl dog." He tried, whistling like you would for a puppy. It was not his best idea, given the fact he was trying to find a pretty girl, not a dog.

But, it seemed to work, as a figure, clothed in black, did several black flips and cartwheels up to the superhero, shocking Henry at how she chose to make her entrance.

"You know, you could've just walked up to me." He told her, thinking that all her flips and spins were a bit of an overkill.

"You came here alone, right?" The female Wall Dog asked him, looking around the surrounding shrubbery and mountainside to see if Captain Man or the cops were waiting to pounce.

"Yeah, I'm alone," Henry replied, which made her smirk.

"Good to know." She smiled, leaning in for a kiss, but Henry wanted to play a little hard to get first.

"Hey, I don't even know your name." He said, leaning back despite his yearning for her touch.

"Then why don't you guess? Here's a hint. It's Veronika." The girl told him, making the boy suspect that being teasing and playful was part of her personality.

"That's a pretty specific hint, Veronika." Henry smiled, glad that he could finally put a name to her lovely face. With the boy asking no more questions, Veronika leaned in, and they shared a sweet kiss. When she pulled back, she threw a can of spray paint into Henry's hand, which greatly confused the kid. She didn't expect him to....did she?

"What's this for?" He asked although he had a sneaking suspicion of what she wanted him to do. Grabbing his wrist, she pulled him over to the large glowing sign behind them.

"Let's go to work on the Swellview Sign." She said, shaking her can in preparation.

"What? No! Are you crazy?" He stopped her before she could do any damage, terrified of the consequences if Ray, (y/n) or Charlotte found out what he had done. He'd already withheld information from them, lied to them, sneaked out under their noses and now this? Oh, hell no.

"Are you really going to be a Herbert?" Veronika asked him in an annoyed voice.

"I am not a Herbert. This sign is the property of our city, and I'm not gonna let you do something illegal to it." He scolded her, but she really didn't care.

"Oh, you think that just because something is illegal means it's wrong?" She stated, clearly having different beliefs to the crime-fighting teen.

"Well, yeah," Henry replied.

"I'm an artist. The Wall Dogs are artists. Don't you like artists?" She ran her fingers up his chest in a teasing manner, hoping to use his teenage hormones against him.

"Sure. But why should everyone in Swellview be forced to look at your art?" He asked, gesturing to the huge sign that looked over Swellview for everyone to see.

"Why am I forced to look at giant billboards advertising things I don't want to buy?" Like diapers and lawyers?" She pointed out, even though her argument was really the same. Advertisements were meant to be in the places they were and they weren't being done against the owner's consent.

"Maybe some lawyers need diapers. I don't know." Henry said, sighing at how frustrating their argument was.

"Maybe we should just kiss again." He suggested, preferring the idea to them arguing over who was right and who was wrong. They kissed again, but Veronika pulled back with a frown on her face as the whir of a helicopter flew over them.

"A police helicopter? You called the cops on me?" The girl looked at Henry with a mix of terror and betrayal, but Henry looked just as surprised as she did.

"No, I did." A new voice entered the conversation, a voice belonging to none other than Captain Man.

"Captain Man?" Henry looked at his boss in shock.

"You said you came alone!" Veronika cried at her crush, thinking she had been set up.

"I thought I did. How'd you find me?" He replied, looking back and forth between the two like he was choosing between his heart and his head.

"I think you know that I have a very smart helper. She helped me follow you. Then I hid in those bushes and watched you two kiss." Ray revealed, having tracked his sidekick through the city with the help of (y/n)'s expertise. God, he loved her.

"I know that sounds weird, but it's my job." He added on the end to stress that he wasn't some weirdo that spied kids from the bushes.

"Captain Man, look! We're up here! We're in the helicopter!" A voice yelled over the police helicopter's megaphone, even though it was pretty obvious that the cops had arrived, what with the noise, lights and wind.

"I know!" Ray snapped, hating how incompetent Swellview's police force were.

"You shouldn't have come here..." Henry glared at Ray, tensing his muscles as he prepared to battle with his boss. Yes, battle.

"And you shouldn't have lied to me. One of us has to protect the city from trash like her." The older man replied, pointing an angry finger at the boy. He glanced at Veronika, his eyes brimming with hate and anger.

"All right, don't call her trash. Or...or I'll call (y/n) scum!" Henry spat, infuriated how rude and offensive Ray was being to the girl he fancied.

"Trash!" Ray bellowed at the Wall Dog, Henry's words about the woman he loved fuelling his temper like logs on a fire.

"She's not trash! And you're not taking her anywhere...old man." Henry insulted Ray with one of the worst things he could have said. The man was extremely touchy about his age, probably because he was getting on a bit, and he was still no closer to the life he had envisioned as a younger man. Married to (y/n), kids with (y/n), a house with (y/n), just anything but the lonely existence he was putting up with now.

"How dare you. You know I'm sensitive about my age." Ray hissed at his sidekick, the boy knowing all of his secret heartache on how he thought he would die alone, (not that (y/n) would ever leave him).

"By the way, I'm only 34." Ray quickly mentioned to Veronika, just in case the girl thought he was like 50 years old or something.

"Now, She's going to jail." Captain Man pushed past Kid Danger and took out his handcuffs so he could take her in. He grabbed her wrist and tried to force the cuffs on her, enraging Henry.

"Get off of me!" Veronika yelped as Captain Man clasped her hand with an intense grip, her crush surging forward to come between the two.

"Leave her alone," Henry shouted, smacking Ray's hand and pulling him into a shoulder throw in an impressive feat of strength. Henry panted as his boss stood up and dusted himself off, shaking from both his rage and his disbelief at what his sidekick, his friend had just done.

"That was not okay." He growled before Henry charged at him with a battle cry and tackled him. They pushed backwards and forwards as they struggled to outmatch each other's weight and strength, but Ray won in terms of muscle density, so he threw the boy to the floor with a grunt. Quickly getting to his feet, Henry tried to kick Ray, but the seasoned fighter grabbed his boot and used that leverage to pin the boy back to the ground. The police and Veronika watched in astonishment as the superhero duo wrestled in the dirt.

Getting back up, they gasped for air and threw several punches before Ray grabbed Henry's arm and picked him up in a fireman's life, chucking him onto a boulder. The rock's harsh surface made Henry's bones ache and he groaned in pain for a second as Veronika jumped onto Ray's back, not being able to bear the sight of the kid in pain. After the shock of the surprise attacked drained away, Ray swiftly wriggled free from her clutches and slapped her away with minuscule swipes, not wanting to fight the girl and injure her too badly.

Returning to his brawl with Henry, Ray clambered onto the boulder and engaged in a heated struggle as both males competed to topple the other one off the side. Henry blocked one of Ray's lunches and seeing that the superhero was distracted, Veronika grabbed the heel of his boot, allowing the teen boy above her to push Ray down the mountainside. The kids looked at each other in shock, their adrenaline still rushing through their veins.

"I'm okay!" Captain Man's weak voice could be heard as he fell down the mountain, letting Henry know that he wasn't injured or anything. Of course, he wasn't, he was indestructible and that fact allowed Henry to safely continue their devious plan. 

"You just pushed Captain Man down a mountain." Veronika gasped to Henry, her voice wobbling as she took in what had just happened.

"Well, I couldn't just let him take you to jail. Come on, we gotta go." Henry told her, getting down from the huge rock and leading her by the hand so they could flee the scene.

"But the helicopter has lights. They'll follow us" The girl pointed out to him. Even the Swellview police weren't so bad they couldn't track two criminals with their searchlight.

"Not if I put out their lights," Henry replied, smirking as he took out his remote. He felt a small pinch of guilt in his heart as he continued to hear Ray's grunts as the man began to hit the ground. He'd be okay, but man, it had to hurt.

The boy fired a laser at the helicopter, but his eyes were fixed on Veronika in an attempt to be cool and aloof, but of course, his cockiness meant that he missed completely.

"Ha! Missed us!" The police officer yelled at him gleefully, causing Henry's cheeks to burn in embarrassment.

"Maybe you should aim." The pretty Wall Dog advised him, caring less about how cool he looked and more about them getting out of there. Taking her advice, Henry looked at the searchlight on the helicopter and fired another laser, this time hitting his target dead-centre.

"Ah! He got it! Fly away!" The police officer growled over his tannoy and the cops backed off, leaving the teens alone on the mountainside.

"So, how does it feel being bad?" Veronika smirked at Henry, glad that she had turned him to the dark side.

"Feels gooooood." Kid Danger told her, the pair of them sharing a kiss before running off into the night, leaving Henry's allegiance and morality behind.

~Back in the Man Cave, some time later~ It had been a very long, anxious wait for (y/n) as she waited nervously for Ray to return. It was never good for anyone to sit and wait for news on whether their friend had really turned traitor, but for her, it was agonising. The last she had heard from her best friend was that he had confirmed Henry's location atop the mountain, but she hadn't received any contact since. Her worry had started to set into her bones, she twiddled her thumbs and bounced her knee in an attempt to distract herself from letting her mind wander. 

'He's not dead, he's fine, Henry's fine, you're fine, everything's good.' She told herself, trying to get it into her head that the superhero duo would return with the news that the Wall Dogs had been captured. But her hopes were tarnished as a tube came down with a lone figure, Ray, who was dusty, battered and downright fed up.

"Holy shit, what happened? Where's Henry? Are you okay?" She ran over to him, helping him to the couch as the questions tumbled past her lips. She had learned from experience that asking loads of questions as soon as he got back never ended well, him being exhausted from kicking ass, but she couldn't help it. The lack of his sidekick made it painfully obvious to her that something had gone wrong.

"He's not here." He groaned, accepting a glass of water that she had prepared beforehand. He felt like crap, despite his lack of physical injuries and his knowledge that his plan was going swimmingly. It didn't sit right with him that (y/n) had to be left into the dark from their schemes, but he knew it was strictly a Captain Man and Kid Danger problem, so he continued the lie.

"Please tell me he went home and the Wall Dogs are in jail." She said in a small voice, a small shred of hope peeking through her despair.

"No. He, uh...he and that Wall Dog girl through me down the mountain and got away." He sighed, trying to make his voice seem as depressed as he could. His heart broke as he watched a tear slid down her cheek, the bitter taste of betrayal sitting on her tongue.

"He went...with her...and you...mountain." She couldn't comprehend that the sweet, helpful, considerate, funny, good-as-gold Henry Hart that she knew would turn on Ray, turn on everything they had worked together to fight against, just for some crush he had on a girl.

"Don't worry. I can handle it." He reassured her, seeing how she fell apart at the thought of Henry becoming a Wall Dog. He felt terrible; he knew that she loved that kid like he was her brother, she had told him her secrets, her feelings, her beliefs, her knowledge and now he had left, for what?

"So he's betrayed us. After all this, he's joined them." He wasn't sure if she was talking to him or herself at this point, her reaction being much more severe than he ever could have expected.

"In the morning, we're gonna find them," Ray told her, his warms hands holding hers as if they were the only thing keeping her on the ground.

"I suppose you and Charlotte will need help." She laughed bitterly, hating the ironic idea that she would have to hunt down the boy she had trained with the same skills she would utilise. 

"You're my helper, sweetheart, I always need you." He whispered into her hair, letting her head fall to his shoulder. Personal space be damned, he needed her as much as she needed him, they were each other's lifelines and they would track Henry Hart until the ends of the earth, always together.

[imminent-danger-came]

Here’s a jumbled mess of my thoughts and questions after watching season 4

This is a long list buckle in:

When Callum asked Rayla to kill him. Oh. Oh god.

Nothing was resolved this season. We're so fucked for season 5. Like, this is very much the season 1 of arc 2. Season 2 fulfilled a lot of what season 1 set up in arc 1, and I think season 4 is the same.

Why was Rayla acting so strange all season? Like there is so much there to suggest she’s not herself.

What's with the weird butterfly guy, like yeah he lead Claudia and the gang to the map but there's going to be more there.

Callum possession.

No really the Callum possession was the worst (affectionate) part of the whole season I’m still freaking out

We never got a Rayllum I love you. Next season’s gonna hurt!

Stella is a fucking weirdo I still do NOT trust her. (Thanks for saving bait and Rayla’s fake rock parents though.)

 How did terry and Claudia meet. Very excited to get an explanation if that’s in the cards!

Gonna go on a big rant about our 3 human mages

*Ahem.* VIREN AND CLAUDIA NEVER SAW CALLUM DO MAGIC WITH THE SKY ARCANUM. AUGH. I’M WAITING FOR IT TO HAPPEN. THE “Callum mastered the Sky Arcanum” reveal for those two is going to be SO FUCKING CRAZY

THEY SET SO MUCH SHIT UP FOR A CLAUDIA AND CALLUM CONFRONTATION NEXT SEASON. I'M SO SCARED. Like she's the one who keeps going on about Humanity having nothing and Elves and Dragons considering them to be filthy animals, BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE. Also the way she looked at his sleeping form. The “Not anymore.” at them being friends. Lol. We’re screwed guys.

Now that Callum and Rayla have reconciled I am fully confident he's gonna master the moon Arcanum next season, since those two things have been thematically connected. I'm screaming.

THE EPISODE 4 INTRO THOUGH.

LIKE EVERY INTRO AFTER THAT WAS A SCARY GAME OF “Is it going to be Viren, or will it be Callum?”

Fuck that cube

I CAN NOT BELIEVE CLAUDIA GAVE RAYLA THE COINS. LIKE. WOAH. WHAT. WHAT WHAT WHAT. CLAUDIA I HAD LOST ALL HOPE FOR YOU.

Viren, that dumb motherfucker. Can’t believe he has like, “a will to live” again UGH

Very interested to learn about the 7 Xadian cakes.

Every time they foreshadowed “Callum becoming Aaravos puppet” was wild man. I am not ready.

Speaking of, Callum really wasn’t okay with that all season lol. Again. He asked Rayla to kill him like WOW. “What if I’m on the path to darkness?” Buddy you should have destroyed the cube.

Or, maybe not. You’re gonna need to use it as leverage later probably.

Actually the fact that he was crying over the possession. Over Rayla? All of it?

So glad Soren is part of the Dragang.

Episodes 3 and 4 were FUCKING AMAZING HOLY SHIT.

Can not believe they stabbed both Ibis and Claudia on screen. Like really I shouldn’t have been surprised with the way season 3 was, but I think it was fair to be surprised at the blood spilling out of Ibis’ mouth.

THE COINS HAHA! Yay?

i DESPERATELY want to know why Rayla came back. Miss “I left because I love you and want to protect you against everything. I love you so much. We may never see each other again”. Like lol. There is more there. The Rayla I know would have crumpled from guilt the moment Callum was a little bit angry towards her. She has exactly ZERO self-worth. I am terrified of what those 2 years did to her.

The fact that she called searching for Viren “revenge” felt strange too. Especially after reading the “Dear Callum” short story.

Somehow, I trust Stella less than the weird star butterfly abomination. Like I really do not trust that cuddle monkey.

JANAYA THE WHOLE SEASON. I LOVE THEM.

Karim. Lol.

The way Soren screamed after seeing his father. God.

The Soren and Claudia reunion was kinda sweet. Fucked up. But the way Soren protected Claudia from falling hurt me.

Terry this season was a DELIGHT. I think a lot of his appeal for me comes from the fact that he’s Claudia’s partner. There’s something so wrong with him. And he’s also a dork. The dualism.

When the looking glass shattered. FUCKING SCARY DUDE

Really loved the world building on moon opals and other magic stones.

Buddy you should have destroyed the cube.

The drakewood was neat!

2 of the funniest jokes in the season were back to back and all happened in episode 7. The whole “speaking in the dark” bit. Zym putting a hand on a grieving Ezran’s shoulder. Comedy.

DOG ZYM DOG ZYM DOG ZYM

Is it okay for me to have a crush on a dragon.

Really Zubeia has the prettiest voice.

buddy you should have destroyed the cube.

Thank you Rayla for NOT choosing to go after Viren again. Don’t leave your boys. Callum needs you.

JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL JANAYA PROPOSAL

Janai this season was so sweet.

Karim. Lol. Eat shit.

Rex Ignus was cooler than I thought he’d be. Still a fucking loser though lol

Callum did so many cool spells this season I’m so proud of him.

Buddy. You. Should. Have. Destroyed. The. Cube.

Terry’s magic form was SO NEAT.

I hope we get to met the water arch-dragon next. She looked SUPER pretty

I wonder what other pieces of Aaravos’ whereabouts the other arch-dragon’s have.

“I’m going to do something more human. I’m just going to stab him.” (Not word for word but you know the joke)

Queen Aditi was very pretty and I am excited to learn what happened to her

Also the Orphan Queen! What a gal! The Katolis custom of “only orphans may ascend to the thrown” makes a lot more sense now! Fuck whoever that other bitch was that was manipulated by aaravos.

Corvus playing the fucking cello. Like girl what? You’re a multi-classing ranger and bard?

The Soren and Zubeia dynamic was so fucking good. Please dragon smash boy SAY the good words now, they light the hearts of other people (those people being dragon queens)

I miss Corvus (And lowkey ship Sorvus)

Soren and his new friend dragon :)

TLDR; I love tdp

#that's enough for now #These thoughts are really in no order #Loved season 4! #Excited for what else is in store for us #tdp #the dragon prince #tdp meta #tdp callum #tdp rayla #tdp aaravos #tdp soren #tdp ezran #tdp spoilers #imp tag #tdp zym #tdp zubeia

[yes-i-write-fanfiction]

Yay!! Regarding my last ask regarding Young Justice and Nina, how do you suppose the rest of the gang react to Nina just up and asking Conner out on a date? Like, she just straight up asks him "Hey Conner, wanna go out to (movie/dinner/park) with me?"(I imagine this is around season 1 around the first half)

They are all standing in the background, completely silent and watching intently. No one dares to say anything, afraid that this will somehow frighten Connor, like he's some kind of skittish animal. This is better than television. Batman could go live on TV and reveal his secret identity to the world and they would not look away from this for even a second.

Wally has a death grip on Dick's arm, silently shaking him, as if to make sure his friend is seeing the same thing he is. Dick just looks like Christmas came early, he can't stop smiling like an absolute idiot.

Kaldur is sharing this look with Artemis that's like 'finally these idiots are getting somewhere'. Artemis owes his 10 bucks because she bet that Connor would be the one to ask Nina out first.

Megan can't stop staring, her eyes are wide like saucers, she's drinking this all up like its a glass of water and she's been traveling the desert for a month. She's been waiting for this moment, anticipating it, but this is even better than anything she could ever have imagined.

Silently, in the back of everyone's mind, there's one collective thought; DON'T FUCK THIS UP CONNOR!

#young justice #DC #imagine #OC

I just re-watched season 2 of Stranger Things and here's the takeaway for me - stop me if you've heard this one before ;) - whoever I was when I watched it in 2017 is not the girl you see before you. I have a wayyyy different interpretation of the characters and the show.

(Season 1 thoughts here.)

'MADMAX' was the coolest way to introduce Max. She is absolutely as rad as I remember. I'm not entirely sure they knew why they wrote Max into the show... Was it to give Lucas something to do (which is shitty for his character); was it to add another girl (yay tokenism); was it a setup for later seasons (I might accept that because not all new characters have to be the star of the show)? Who knows! What I do know is that Sadie Sink really gave Max teeth in an otherwise... eh storyline.

I forgot Nancy and Steve went to Barb's parents for dinners. Makes me so fucking sad. The entire Barb situation is tragic. Idk if it was a reaction to the 'Justice for Barb' movement but regardless, having some follow-up around that was so important. Nancy's trauma being (somewhat) explored was great too.

Jesus H. Christ Noah Schnapp can fucking act. Like yeah, Sadie Sink killed season 4 but Noah Schnapp season 2 is incredible. And he's thirteen! And the intensity and nuance in his performance are wild! !!! !!!

I remember being so charmed by the Dustin and Steve pair-up. Still am. Still am.

"He likes it cold." Yikes. Like I said about season 1, it's cool watching this through a Vecna lens. It feels plausible he was the plan for the show all along.

My memory of Dart was a nice one. Turns out that I forgot he killed Mews. Fuck that guy Dart. He is not my homie. RIP Mews. You deserved better.

I remember the demodogs being more dog-like. They truly be serving Silent Hill, huh?

Unpopular opinion but I don't hate the Kali storyline. I can see how I thought it sucked in 2017; waiting all that time for season 2 to finally come out, then getting that. I probably wanted more action and group bonding. However, I like that we got to see a) an alternative outcome for El had she not found Mike and Hopper, and b) El gain some autonomy in her search for history and home. It makes her choice to be Hopper's daughter more meaningful. The storyline also broadened the danger and cruelty of Brenner and co., and gave a legit setting for El to learn more about her powers.

RIP Bob. My memory of you was correct and you truly are a hero. Casting was A+ because nobody thought they'd violently kill a LOTR/Goonies star in the 80s themed show.

Watching the entire gang in the Byers house in episode 8 was so cool. That sweeping shot of all of them poised ready for the demodog attack... chefs kiss. I am now even angrier that they were all separated in season 4.

There's so much talk about cool television dads. Din Djarin this. Bandit Heeler that. Joel Miller who. Bob Belcher why. Where is the hype for Joyce Byers, who once again proves to be parent of the motherfucking year?! Are you kidding me?!

Knowing that the show goes on to call Mike the heart of the party is a real kick in the teeth. Will is so utterly the heart of this family and found family.

So, I never fell in love with Steve. Not a Stevie girlie. But, ah, this rewatch has me feeling all kinds of things. The fucking character development on this boy?! Might have to branch out into some Steeeeeedie x Reader fics. Shiiiit.

I. Love. Nancy. She. Is. So. Smart. Give. Her. More. Guns. And the scene with Dustin at the dance still breaks my heart. I love her, your honor.

Murray was exactly how I remembered.

Hopper was wayyyy better this season. The "sometimes I think I'm a black hole" speech was fantastic. Him telling El about Sarah, finally, is so healing for them both.

My opinions about Jonathan and Steve changed so much between 2016 and 2023, so I went into this with an open mind re: Billy. However, here's the thing. He's racist. Racists just aren't babes. No matter how else his behaviour and personality are contextualised, he will always be a racist so it's a hard no for me. Yes, Billy is the victim of an abusive parent, but that can only be used to explain some of his behaviour. Not all of it. Nor can it be used to excuse some of his behaviour. Nothing that has happened to Billy can justify the way Max is terrified when she hears his car. She is terrified of him. I'm not saying they don't love each other in a very complicated messy way, but when I try 'redeem' (for lack of a better word) season 2 Billy, I can't. Billy deserved a safe and good home, deserved better than what life gave him, but he'll continue to be a blocked tag for me. I do wanna say that I think he's an important character for a lot of people, and that is so valid. That's why I don't go around posting shit about him 24/7. I'll probably have a lot to say about him in season 3 too, because hey guess what, sexualising a teenager is weird as hell @ grown up adult women living in Hawkins.

At the end of season 2 I am so keen for some more El/Will friendship, Max development, and Jopper.

And I'm onto season 3. (Edit: here's the link!)

Hils Watches Taxi Driver S2 - Ep 1

Back to my ridiculous and adorable found family drama. I don't often watch things that have a second season but I very much enjoyed the first one so I am looking forward to watching more.

Hot. Also in prison so probably evil.

I feel like I've seen him in something else

Oh my god I am so fucking stupid. That's Kim Dogi!

Flipped a bus in the first 5 mins. Excellent.

That's my dorks

Ooh flashback to right when the first season ended

Wow considering he's an elite driver Kim Dogi can't park for shit. He's way over the line.

Delighted that the boyfriends are still boyfriends

Aww yay I've missed the little 'choose vengeance' video games

HAHA! Prevented from making his usual cool exit because the automatic doors wouldn't open and he had to get out of the car and do it manually

Wait, is that...

IT IS!!!! Ahh, I wasn't expecting to see her again! Amazing!

An excellent start! I'm enjoying seeing the gang slowly come back together.

Guardian Angel by dreamsofspike. Rated Mature, 33k words, Aziracrow. Summary: Crowley is summoned. It's not the first time - but it's probably the worst. https://archiveofourown.org/works/21307328 Oh my gosh this fic was harrowing - the Crowley whump was A+. Then the rescue was brilliantly paced. Sometimes the order of operations can get out of wack during rescue scenes but I loved every beat of it. The hugs and cuddling at the end was like the best surge of oxytocin ever. This was such a good read!

To Sleep, Perchance to Dream by theshoparoundthecorner. Rated General, 18k words, Aziracrow. Summary: When he finally drifted off, he dreamt only of a burning bookshop and the end of the world. Since then, the nightmares came nearly every night. Some nights were easier to forget than others, but it was the nights when he woke up with a scream still caught in his throat or drenched in another cold sweat that left him shaken for the rest of the day. It was far too inconvenient to go about one’s day replaying a terrible dream in one’s head, so after about two weeks, Crowley came up with a solution to his problem. Since sleeping seemed to be the cause of all his troubles at the moment, it was simple: he would just stop. Of course, stopping one’s nearly-six-thousand-year routine was easier said than done. Demons didn’t need to sleep, that much was true, but Crowley had grown rather accustomed to it, and quitting was no easy feat. Nevertheless, he did his best to keep his head held high and his eyes wide open, with one goal in mind – avoid alerting Aziraphale to anything out of the ordinary. This, of course, failed miserably. https://archiveofourown.org/works/33308377 Yay cuddly coziness between Crowley and Aziraphale post season one, with angst and PTSD added for spice. Loved it.

(Don't) Say My Name by CosmicOcelot. Rated Mature, 4k words, Aziracrow. Summary: “Aziraphale,” Crowley clutches tighter at Aziraphale’s jacket, hissing the words between his teeth, and the slightly hysterical edge to his voice makes the angel’s entire body flood with sheer panic. “Someone’s summoning me.” https://archiveofourown.org/works/19409536 Loved the Crowley whump. The evil summoning felt a little bit like the beginning of Sandman which I loved. Aziraphale to the rescue is so delicious.

Five Times Crowley's Serpentine Nature Showed by ebullience24. Rated General, 5k words, Aziracrow. Summary: Five Times Crowley's Serpentine Nature Showed, featuring the whole airforce gang. 1. Eyes. 2. Cold-blooded. 3. Crowley can talk to other snakes. 4. Crowley has chronic pain. 5. Brumating https://archiveofourown.org/works/22318813 Fluffy and sweet, I really love the idea of Crowley as a snake, with various habits and powers and sensitivities that all comes with it. The chronic pain aspect to explain why he moves the way he does has piqued my interest too. Really well done!

Of Dust And Diamonds by entanglednow. Rated Explicit, 14k words, Aziracrow. Summary: After they're both released by Hell for good, Crowley and Aziraphale return to the bookshop. They're both dealing with their own trauma, but they're also determined not to lose what they spent six thousand years building towards. https://archiveofourown.org/works/22288885 The way this author treated the hurt/comfort aftermath of rape in hell in this fic was so nuanced and felt very authentic. The way Aziraphale and Crowley both care so deeply for each other, and cope, and circle around each other for comfort, seeking stability and balance with each other. So so good.

#01. pretty hot vampire brothers

entry #1: diabolik lovers I, 27.07.23

well diabolik lovers is... very interesting.. the start was pretty alright yet messy. i first watched it when i was younger and I WAS FASCINATED. my thirst for vampires started with this and bram stoker's dracula like holy shit, they were so hot??!

the story starts with yui komori moving into the sakamaki household and thinking some dude (ayato sakamaki) was dead cuz ya know, no vitals and shit. and oh my gooodd???!! he was alive the whole time because plot twist he's a vampire. the whole family was summoned, yui found out they we're all vampires and being the christian she was she thought that crucifixes can kill vampires. but nope the typical cross, garlic and sunshine doesn't affect vampires in this universe. then later in the series we find out that she's a sacrificial bride for these brothers to suck on like leaches. (poor yui)

in the end, i don't know if she became a vampire or still remain a human being with her waking up after stabbing herself after getting possessed by ayato's, laito's and kanato's hot mom that is named cordelia.

the hot mom cordelia was having an affair with the sakamaki brother's uncle, richter. ehhh richter was okay, he was hot but like he didn't stick out to me. richter's brother and also the sakamaki brother's father, karlheinz is waaay more hotter, i know where the brothers got their looks from.

entry #2: diabolik lovers II, 28.07.23

the introduction of 4 new vampires (actually 6) got me pretty excited but to only find out that it's just gonna be the same situation as the sakamaki brothers. im honestly not surprised..

though they address yui as eve and they gotta suck our poor mc's blood to be adam. at the start of the series, they got in a car accident but of course they're still alive. turns out the cause of this accident was because of the newly introduced mukami brothers, they also attend the same night school the gang is going to.

and oh my god they kidnapped yui. so like the sakamaki brothers thought she ran away and is going to come back to the house but lmao okay,, meanwhile the mukami brothers like their predecessor treat yui like shiiit!!! but like no matter what household she goes to she'll just suffer the same thing of getting uhh sucked by vampires.

oh yeah, the mukami brothers aren't actually brothers but they get along so much better than the sakamaki brothers who are ACTUALLY related to one another. also unlike the sakamaki brothers, they aren't born a vampire they were turned into one.

okay fast forward --- ayato goes to the mukami's household for yui, yui comes back to the sakamaki household but came back right away to the mukami household because oh nooo!!! they got attacked by wolves and ruki got the most damage to the point he's bedridden. ALSO THE INTERACTION BETWEEN ASUZA AND KANATO IS LITERALLY GOLD I COULD NOT GET IT OUT MY MIND!!!

and yay more new vampires and they want yui (not surprised) this time they're called the founders and uhh idk i didn't really watched their part but okay, new hot vampires

entry #3: my honest reaction + conclusion

okay so reverse harem but the mc is submissive..? okay greaat.. i feel really bad and annoyed by yui by her actions. eh i get that she's getting sucked by vampires to the point of dying due to loss of blood, but like.. why does she feel like she's indebted to vampires by attending and caring for them? like girl, they kidnapped you and treat you like shit and literal livestock. but okay, she's the mc

well despite yui being like that, i look forward to the series. on season 2, the story was quite more intense and complex due to the introduction of new characters and the recent storyline, i think its dope.

this series isn't that much of a must watch but when i finished the series it made me wanna play the games.. curiosity hits hard. its a good show and recommendable if you want to watch vampire esque series like these.

also this series is really short, 12 episodes per seasons and each episode got like 14 minutes, you can finish this within a day or two if you got nothing good to do like me ueue

i got nothing more to say, and if you made it this far to read this little review -- thanks a looottt!!!! see you at the next review :D

Another Screenrant article to rant about! *Yay*

Four reasons That 90s Show's Jackie & Kelso reunion had to happen? More like, maybe three.

Ashton and Mila are together irl.

You know who (Hyde's actor) is a piece of subhuman scum.

Jackie and Fez are the worst. Jackie and Kelso is the lesser of two evils, but it's still an evil!

Their reasons:

Kelso's original T7S ending never worked, according to them. The author states that Kelso's a goofy character, and the show turning him into a "self-serious family man" was deeply out of character. But he grew by meeting Brooke and fathering Betsy; he wasn't a self-serious family man, but a goofy family man. He grew as a character, and Jackie and Kelso don't help each other grow, and hold each other back. Straight up.

Jackie/Fez's romance felt forced. I agree with this one, mostly, except they mention that Jackie and Eric would be worse than Jackie and Fez. And nope, Jackie and Eric have more potential than Jackie and Fez or Jackie and Kelso ever could.

Jackie's relationship with Hyde was always doomed. The author states that they didn't like each other, and weren't built to last. Other than maybe very early on, them not liking each other was totally a facade. They bonded deeply, over their shared trauma, and learned a lot from each other. Jackie learned to think for herself and push boundaries, and Hyde learned how to express his emotions and find his way in the world. And that true love isn't all that bad, after all. :) The author also states that "their plot went nowhere slowly." No, their relationship was built up to be endgame for three whole seasons (by Hyde proposing to Jackie), until season 8 threw it all out the window.

Jackie and Kelso's relationship in T9S honors T7S. Um, no it doesn't. The author says that "Kelso grounded Jackie," but he grounded her in the worst possible ways. He grounded her and trapped her in on-off mediocrity and mindless superficiality, so she can't fly. And if it honors T7S in any way, T9S merely honors the first half of the show (with a few things from the later seasons, such as JF's relationship and a warped view of Eric's Star Wars obsession, for a half-assed baseline of consistency). T9S clearly retconned Jackie and Hyde's relationship, Brooke and Betsy (and replaced Betsy with a sixteen year old Jay), and removed Hyde as a character of any importance. He skipped town at the end of an incredibly different season 5, never to be seen or mentioned again, as far as T9S is concerned.

PS:

And somewhat ironically, Donna being self-destructive and running to California and Kelso coming with her was the best thing that could've happened on the show. Because if Kelso didn't run away, Jackie and Kelso would've probably gotten married very young, Kelso wouldn't have met Brooke (and knocked up Jackie instead), Hyde would be a drifter of sorts, and the gang ultimately goes their separate ways (to the point where their kids don't know each other). Aka, other than Hyde running off with Chrissy in season 1, T9S is the worst possible scenario.

The author also mentions that T9S is a world where Hyde never existed. I somewhat disagree; in T9S, he only fell off the face of the Earth in the last third of the show. Since the gang and Red and Kitty still know Leo, even though T9S isn't willing to recognize how Leo came into the fold, Hyde existed in the earlier seasons of the show. They just lost contact with him (ugh, it's still so OOC), and they don't bring him up to the kids (aka, the scenes where Hyde was blatantly cut out).

Clone high living blogging

Episode 2

Oh wow the second hand embarrassment is SO strong when Joan was asleep in class…..

……..Joan knows about Wiccan stuff AND she practices it?? I mean I guess that makes sense seeing as her clone mother was a French saint?

“Women just weren’t friends with each other like that” GIRL what do you mean?????? Like in context Joan is saying she wants friends. I know that the show had a very small character group but ?????? That didn’t mean girls didn’t have girl fiends???

Oh there breaking the 4th wall again…….i feel like this is gonna happen a lot.

Joan really said “im not like other girls”

Harriet and Frida give those vibes of girls who pretend to be friends with the outcast only to betray and bully them…I don’t trust them.

Nooooo jfk don’t have any guy friends because ponce is dead noooooooo :(

Ah hell yeahhhhhh the blue background bathroom are back!!!! :)

Nooooooo Joan had a new foster mom!!!! Cleo’s mom and toots are probably dead :(. Hmmm that makes me wonder, HOW do the clones feel about their family might be dead? Like to them it’s what, been a day? 2? Since they got unfrozen, so it must be so jarring to hear that their family might be dead or something. :(

NOOOOOOOOOO TOOTS IS CANOTICAaly dead :(

Oh no jfk learned out the internet/tiktok

Frida and Harriet murder someone….surprise but not really….

JFK and there getting into an internet battle? :/ ok…do those “correct grammar in arguments” things really happen??? Like in real like?? It feel very specific……

Episode 3

“My boy toy jfk”

Seeing the gang having anxiety is interesting….Lind of gives them characterization…

I feel like this season is very Joan-centric while last was Abe-centric. Mmmm if there is a third season will it be focused on jfk? Or Cleo?

Topher has a emotional support possum :)

It’s neat to see Harriet fear/anxiety of being a “basic wine mom”. I like to think that she just has a fear of motherhood, or like, Amatonormativity.

Them beat the heck out of the monster while saying their fears is so cheesy. Then them saying “oh it’s (insert celebrity name here) from (xyz) is soooo scoops doo like. It’s also cheesy.

Doc….why do your nipple look so gross?

Ooohhh 👀 the clones that got taken are mind controlled 👀

Episode 4

Weird….zombies??? Goblin??? Things

I feel like the reason Joan feels odd this season is because she actually feels very passionate about stuff? Like off the top of my head the only times I remember seeing her very emotional was over Abe, not being allowed to play baseball, anything with Cleo, and the snowflake day. Like, all those time where of anger or yearning so seeing Joan happy/motivated is…..odd.

I still can’t get over Cleo voice. It sound so…high? I’ll why but I keep remembering Cleo old voice as lower?

Oh! I’m right! Her voice WAS lower, (watch a video complicated in Cleo and compare it to her new voice) :/

Ha. Cha cha smooth parody.

Oh sweet! Finally some cool stuff on how the old clones interact with the new one. Aka Joan lie and say the coffe is made from child labor and everyone believes it. Hmm very interesting take on stuff! Like ughhhh media criticism and cancel culture and stuff. Idk man I can’t explain it…

…….. awww we could had have a Joan and Cleo moment were they bond and stuff :(

Did Abe and Cleo ever breakup or are they still a couple?

Hehehe valley girl accent <3

:0 homesteader Cleo!!! Joan did a backflip….neat

:( I just realized I laugh more/chuckled more in season 1 than in season 2. So far the only time I laugh is when slow float about to hit Joan. :(

God I hate Confucius outfit. Dude why are you a triangle??? Why do you’re legs not match you’re top??? Harriet outfit is fine, still an eyesore color wise but fine.

YAY MR B AND JOAN!!!!! Love their friendship :)

YES!!! YES!!!! JOAN AND CLEO FRIENDSHIP???? Or at least no longer enemies!!! Whooo!!!!!!!!

Episode 5

10 years non union internship…..damn. 👀 hmmm would that be a good job? Like if the pay is good and manageable hours then 👀

*looking up clone high Harriet because I was curious why Harriet wants to distrance herself from her clone mom* *see that in season 1 there was already a Harriet* ???????? What….what happened to the original clone? Was she not frozen and she died and Doc was like “yeah likes remake a new Harriet clone lol”

Yay musical episode :)

Oh wow they are good singers, mostly Harriet and Frida

OMG PONCE’s DAD IS BACK yippie!!! :)

I’m like 99% sure that’s not how Footloose works. Wasn’t the dancing ban happen because of a drunk driver or something in the movie?

:( the husbands don’t get along anymore :( Mr b is so catty now

“Abe can’t sing, can’t dance…” i don’t think he even knows karate? I don’t think he’s going make it/lyrics

✨ white guy confidence✨ …………….don’t drink Abe sweat….

Harriet being a pushover/not wanting to speak up against her friend 👀 (also side note it seems like Frida and Harriet stop hang out? Or rather Joan and Harriet are closer friends then with Frida??)

Oh gross they actually drank Abe’s sweat….

Harriet likes her play! It’s different from Joan’s and that fine! Love that Harriet stood up for herself and wants to do her own thing

Oh hey Vincent van go! :) he spoke!!

The said fuck! Literally the first time it happen on the show!! :0

The quiche medphor is nice :)

…..these nerd didn’t try a second time? Also Cleo can dance! She did it with Ashley angel (no pun intended) and she dance at prom????

“Practice makes progress” :) wise words Frida!

Harriet is a good singer

Oh no is jfk and Harriet going to get together???

Ok I think Harriet may be my favorite new clone…

NoOOOOOOOOO NOT THE DINNER !!!!! :0 it’s burning!!!!! Nooooooooooo

The Great Prank War of '48

The Great Prank War of '48 by GraceFieldChild

I feel like Shinsou and the 1-A girls, and maybe even girls from other classes would gang up to get Mineta back for everything. Wouldn't the lot of them be a force to be reckoned with?

I had a lot of fun with this one. I know Mineta's getting a little better (starting somewhere around season 4 I think) but I still can't bring myself to like him. So he's the target of all these. Yay!

I have a headcanon that Shinsou would come up with pranks he could use against his bullies during his years before UA as a way of coping. When everything got too much, he could picture a bucket of green slime falling on their head, or taping all their shoes to the ceiling.

[msnova-scotia]

I’ve been playing the Seven Deadly Sins anime at work all day so I’ve only been able to catch 1/4 (tops) of anything that’s been going on. I’ve also never seen it so I’m gonna describe what I think has happened!

Meliodas is a bartender who gets attacked by some lady in armor, then gets attacked by more people, and the lady (no longer in armor) (oh yeah, and her name’s Elizabeth) is about to die, so Melodias uses his broken sword to kill some people

Apparently he’s part of some old gang called the Seven Deadly Sins, and Elizabeth is a huge fan, so she wants them to get together again for old times sake like that one Phineas and Ferb episode.

Meliodas says what the heck and starts out on a journey to find them all, immediately stumbling upon Diane the giant girl

While talking together, they all get attacked again and Diane is unphased by what’s happening so she yeets the guy super far away

Somehow, Ban joins the party (I missed that whole part). Yay Ban!

Ban gets in a fight with some kid while wondering off somewhere

Something with mushrooms and shrinking women, very fan service-y

They unshrink and Diane kicks some ass

Elizabeth meets her sister

Her sister dies in the crossfire of Melodias and some other guy’s battle where Meliodas is raging out

The kid Ban was fighting turned out to be King, but he lost weight(?)

Diane drops a mountain on someone

Some twink and his giant friend are wondering through a forest, admiring the birds

LITTLE BUNNY NO!!!

One of them is Gowther(sp?), another Sin

Gowther and not!Gowther split up because whoever is in the armor needs more armor glue

Some mercenaries surround armor dude

The Sins surround mercenaries

It’s all a Mexican stand off

Twink boy casually walks into the middle of everything, totally oblivious to what’s happening

Oh he’s autistic

OH SHES TRANS

AND SHE MURDERED HER FRIEND? Armor guy?!? Goodbye I guess??????????

Oh he’s fine nvm. Also a demon? A curse? Idk

I guess Elizabeth knew Meliodas in a past life or something and has a sword to give him from her grandpa

Meliodas uses the sword to absolutely wreck the shit out of armor guy

Now they’re at a castle I think

Diane gets trapped in a hallway? I didn’t see much

But she stumbles out later, super dying with a hole in her

Some guards want to kill her because she keeps wrecking the buildings

Sorry, the guards keep wrecking the buildings because they want to kill her and justify it by framing her

Some guards don’t want to kill her though. One of them has a crush on Diane maybe?

Gowther shows up and gets in a fight with some important looking guy

Gowther puts him in an illusion but he breaks out and kills her. Transphobic tbh

King shows up and fights some fairy dude

Somehow Diane is a child now? Maybe she healed by reverting her age or something? Unclear

Fairy guy is also there, now friendly. And they’re back. No longer friendly. Another illusion?

Ban might be dead because I just realized I haven’t seen him in a hot second. Rip in peace

Some half purple guy shows up and is beating King like he’s the red headed step child

Meliodas shows up and gets beaten too, even though I thought he was invincible? And loses an arm???

Oh hey Ban, we thought you were dead

Now the important enemy guy (who I will refer to as Fabio because of his amazing hair) from earlier and is fighting the purple guy

There seems to be a lot of sexual tension between them

Purple guy won, so now the Sins are fighting against him

Gowther is back!! Trans rights 🏳️‍⚧️

I’m lead to believe Purple Guy turned into a demon, so now he’s EXTRA hot

Lots of battling

I didn’t catch the end so that’s it! Hopefully everyone lived through it.

But congrats, you’ve known experienced the first season of Seven Deadly Sins with me!
