A Christmas Heist Pt. I - The Briefing

Pairing: Bucky x Reader

Warnings: None, just fluff in the end! (I am truly a sucker for fluff)

A request made by @hailhydra920 !! Thank you so so much!

A/N: Hello, lovelies! Wow, a day early! Welcome to Part 1 of the Christmas Heist! I truly truly hope that you guys enjoy this as much as I did writing it! Much much hard work was needed, so feedback and commentary is very much appreciated! Happy reading, lovelies! :)

Request: “Bucky X reader where a Hydra agent dressed up as Santa and Bucky has to fight him, but the only way he can get close enough to “Santa” is dressing up as an elf. Thanks!”

*Introduction to this multi-part request can be found here!

“With all due respect Fury, we’re going to put the public at risk just by stepping into that mall.” Bucky chimes in, analyzing the map of the mall, the responses making Fury smirk and scoff.

“You wouldn’t be putting the public at risk if you are part of the public, now would you?”

This made all of you now confused. “What are you trying to get at, Fury?” Steve questions, leaning over now onto the table. “What I’m saying is that you all will be working in this mall. Rogers, you’re going to be their new employee-” You stop Fury’s explanation right on with your snicker and a shake of your head. “But Steve knows nothing about technology-” “Which is why he’s the one going in that store,” Fury cuts you off this time, his eyes widening as he replies with a “duh” attitude. You hated to admit it, but he had a point.

“Cap will be disguised as an employee. Cap will only be making sure that the customers are welcomed and should they need any help, you refer them to another skilled employee, as the agents who have put this together have said. In the meantime, you can blend and wander around the store in order to find the hard drive” Steve nods, pursing his lips as he processes his role. “Alright, but what would be the use of the other two?”

“That’s where the other building across it comes in,” Fury replies, circling it with his pointer. “Now, this is the toy store across the apple store, which is highly popular now as it transformed to a Christmas toy store. From what our agents have observed, Hydra agents are disguised in this as well. The main concern applies to the one disguised as the Santa Claus that lets kids sit on his lap. Ho, ho, ho.” You couldn’t help but snicker. “Seriously? Santa Claus? You gotta be joking, Fury.” Fury shrugs.

“Laugh all you want, agent. It is in truth quite an interesting tactic because,” Fury raises his hands as he lets the diagram of the floor be shown through a different angle, enabling you three to see the mall as if you were walking in it, only to see the apple store across from where the powerpoint stops at. “You are looking at the apple store right from Santa’s chair. The hydra agent can look over the store and see if there are any forms of suspicious activity. You got to hand this one to them, although we are not in an easy position, obtaining the hard drive is still possible.” “So where do we come in on this Christmas toy store business then,” Bucky then questions for you two, watching Fury carefully. Your guess was probably a regular employee at the cash register. Maybe a manager? Security guard?

“Well let’s just say that the store had open positions for Mrs. Claus and an elf.” Is the reply that comes out of Fury’s mouth.

Now that was definitely not what you were expecting.

Your eyes went big alongside Bucky’s, the two of you looking at each other in disbelief. “Fury, I know we’ve known each other for a while and I know your humor, but this has gone too far for a joke-”“Oh this is no joke, L/N. You and Barnes need to stay close to this “Santa” of ours just in case there is any communication going on behind the scenes.” Fury says, a hint of a smile being visible as he tries his best not to snicker. Steve did not help the situation, as he quietly chuckled and looked down and covered his mouth, clearing his throat to hide the laughter. Bucky was not pleased at all, glaring at both Fury and Steve. “You really call this a dire mission when you’re playing dress up with me and Y/N?! Are you kidding?” Bucky questions, eyes fixed on Fury and clearly showing his disappointment.

“I did say we have to hide you three from hydra’s and the public’s eye right?! Or do you immediately want to be spotted and targeted by these agents, Agent Barnes?!” Fury says strictly, the hint of laughter and smiles now gone and replaced by a pointed look, one that most would be intimidated by.

Although you hated what was being asked of you, you saw why it needed to be done. You placed your hand on top of Bucky’s arm, giving him a knowing look, causing Bucky to pause and ground himself. This would be better explained later. Fury huffed before handing each of you three manilla envelopes.

“Look over these. They have your fake IDs, information about you that the staff knows about, as well as the files we have found on the hydra agents actively participating. We are putting you in the job early on to avoid suspicion. Two apartments will be available to you three in the meantime so that they can’t track you back here. The hard drive, according to a call we have intercepted, will be picked up in less than two weeks to be taken to their base, so that the specialists can handle the rest and be up to date. One suspicious slip up, and we’re done for. Are we clear?”

The three of you nodded, allowing Fury to adjourn the meeting and leave the room with the already waiting Agent Hill, leaving the three of you watching each other. “I guess we’ll pack up, and meet at my office, and we’ll decide what to do from there. Meet me in 45 minutes.” Is what Steve says, before exiting out, leaving just you and Bucky to yourselves. You sighed and held his hand as you two walked out. “Gee, you would think we would catch a break during the holidays,” You say first letting yourself be guided by Bucky into the elevator, pressing the button to your floor. Bucky kissed your knuckles and offered you a little smile. “I know, sweetheart. But we make a good team, you, me, and Steve. That’s why we got called in. So that we can come back home sooner since we’re going to do the job much quicker.” You leaned your head against his arm and chuckled a bit.

“So an elf and Mrs. Claus… how great… it’s just reminding me of that movie elf.”

This made Bucky smile. He was always amazed by your optimism.

“That movie we saw the other day, right?” He questions as the two of you made your way to your shared room, already grabbing your duffle bag and suitcase to pack weapons and clothes. “Yeah, that one!” You say, a small giggle leaving your lips and shaking your head. “Goodness, if the costume you wear for the mall is something similar to that I am only going to hope that I can keep myself together.” This made Bucky’s cheeks slowly turn red in embarrassment, thinking about Buddy’s tight yellow tights and green wardrobe. “Gosh, sweetheart, I really don’t think it’s great to think about right n-”

“Oh my gosh, what if you have to be eating spaghetti covered with maple syrup and marshmallows, and then even more candy and-”

“Really, doll? Ya gotta include embarrassing me in this last minute mission of ours?” He questions, face now red from hearing your laugh as he packs his essentials. “Whatever, we have a mission to do, so I know you wouldn’t be able to look at my elf costume so much.” You giggle and smile at him, zipping up your duffle and getting your suitcase ready.

“I think I can get a peek or two. Besides, what about this is new? I personally think this should be a piece of cake compared to raiding hydra bases,” You say reassuringly, kissing his cheek as you pass by him to get some clothes. Bucky couldn’t help but give you a small smile, watching you as you get ready.

He hated to admit it, but the guy could not help but worry for his girl no matter how many times you two have partnered in assignments. Sure, you might have found this funny and easy, but the concern of you possibly getting hurt was always in the back of his mind even when you went over to where you three would be staying for the meantime. He was now watching over your sleeping figure, tracing your side delicately with his vibranium digits, sighing upon the realization that he is yet again sleepless, worrying about you.

“Mmmm Buck, stop worrying about me and go to sleep,” you mutter sleepily, halting all of his concerns. You always knew what he was thinking. His blue eyes met your sleepy ones, but he couldn’t help but smile at the state you were in. “Come back to me, Buck. You’re like a million miles away up in that head of yours,” you tease with a cute sleepy smile that he could not resist to admire. He let out a sigh and shook his head and shrugged, bringing you closer to him.

“You know… should anything happen to you, it’s my fault. Anything that-”

“Stop that talk, James. You know that that isn’t true. You and I are professionals at this, and we are going to make sure that nothing wrong happens. Okay? Trust me, trust us. You, me, and Steve are going to do just fine. It is not our first rodeo, okay?” You whisper reassuringly, delicate fingers lightly caressing his cheek. A soft smile kisses the man’s lips, watching you in awe. You did always know what to say, hitting his concerns one at a time effortlessly. “You’re right, sweetheart, you’re right.” You smiled before you leaned forward, pressing your lips gently into his in a soft and comforting kiss, pulling away to nuzzle your nose against his.

“I always am. Now why don’t we sleep? You and I have a mission to do and you know how much Steve hates us lollygagging. Or must I read you a bedtime story?” You tease, eyebrows wiggling, causing you both to giggle and ultimately relax. “You’d love to do just that, wouldn’t you, doll?” You smiled once again, giving your lover one more small peck before you nuzzle into his neck, allowing the scent of his cologne to surround your senses. “You and I know how I’d answer that,” you manage to mutter, before quickly returning to your wanted slumber. Bucky couldn’t help but chuckle, combing your hair ever so gently as sleep slowly starts to take over. “Mmm… you know me too well. Goodnight, Y/N,” he whispers into your head, holding you close before he also falls into his sleep.

Boy, were you three in for a treat.

Greetings, this is Rene Astle. I have a question for you. What will it be like if Digimon Adventures 1 and 2, and Digimon: The Movie have a crossover with the animated Disney films and Toy Story? If so, the animated Disney villains for Digimon would've included Captain Hook from Peter Pan, Jafar from Aladdin, Emperor Zurg from Toy Story 2, Hades from Hercules, Ursula from The Little Mermaid, and Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty.

Greetings! Am I supposed to know who Rene Astle is? I’m bad with names

The second part of your request wasn’t exactly phrased like a question, so this is a reminder that I take requests, not demands :) but I do thank you for the suggestions to make this a little easier!

This is an interesting one, indeed!

Digimon Adventure Meets Disney/Pixar

Honestly, this might’ve taken the turn of “worlds collide” rather than your classic Disney Channel crossover episode in which the logic doesn’t really add up, but it’s our favorite characters meeting so who cares?

That might’ve been a vague Kingdom Hearts reference, but I haven’t played the games and read like 1 volume of some manga series, so I can’t actually tell xD

Naturally, the kids think at first that the villains in question are Digimon or something, like how else do you explain the weird Darth Vader-esque robot coming after them?

Then Izzy realizes that something happened and the Digital World and another dimension (or six, depending on what you think about the separation of the Disneyverse, or possible lack thereof) have collided

This takes a sort of Dark Masters arc turn, but the kids are prepared since this isn’t their first rodeo

They sort of try to split up to divide and conquer considering what the villains’ specialties are

Captain Hook and Ursula are the seafaring villains, so obviously they send Joe on that one. But they overheard Hook saying something about fairies, so Mimi came along for the ride, too. And Cody came with since he’s got Submarimon, which is helpful for reconnaissance.

Since you asked specifically for the movie and 01/02, Tri has not happened as of yet, so unfortunately, Rosemon and Vikemon do not make an appearance. BUT THAT’S FINE. I think.

Knowing Disney villains, Hook and Ursula probably don’t exactly get along, so they’re “separated”, but Flotsam and Jetsam are keeping an eye on Hook just in case.

So Ursula sees right away when Zudomon and Lillymon attack... but not much else, because Submarimon disabled her little spy system ;) [EXCELLENT WORK, CODY, WE LOVE YOU]

Ursula tries to come to her ally’s aid, only to see that, naturally, the pirates were not prepared for a giant viking turtle and his flower fairy companion, so they’re all knocked out. Joe’s trying to steer the ship, and I think we all know what happened when Prince Eric did that >w>

Team Seafarer hath succeeded in their goal.

Arguably, Jafar might be the smartest of all the villains in this crossover (I have NOT seen Maleficent, don’t get on my case, but YES, I do consider her quite genius as well, I mean---literally laid in wait for 16 years just to put a girl to sleep THAT’S DEDICATION) so Izzy, of course, has to go take care of that. Ken was a genius because of the Dark Spores, but... he’s smart, too. So he comes along. And T.K.’s a little shit, like Aladdin was, so naturally he insists on coming along. (Also because he’s a smooth talker.)

Part of the plan was letting themselves get captured.

T.K. smooth talked Jafar into believing he would join his side, and Jafar had heard from a restrained Gennai (poor Gennai didn’t deserve it) that T.K. had one of the hella powerful Crests, so who was he to doubt this boy?

He’s so easily wooed by promises of power.

Jafar greatly underestimated the power of Digivolving, so as soon as T.K. got Patamon up to MagnaAngemon, he was able to free Izzy and Ken. Jafar, of course, had the genie-ish powers and tried to magic himself away, but when you’ve got MegaKabuterimon and Stingmon around, you start to get squeamish of giant bugs.

Also, electricity-based powers used on a guy who hadn’t really encountered electricity before? Pretty powerful.

I’ve never seen T.K. so excited to give a fist bump to Ken.

3 down, 3 to go.

Hades had the terrifying fire thing going on (plus his amazing wit), and Maleficent had the fire-breathing dragon. So of course the fire kids were sent after them. Tai, Sora, and Davis had some interesting team potential, let me tell ya.

Davis is annoying. We all know this. But so is Tai. So basically, the Goggle Boys are sent in to annoy the two big bads. And since Hades has the shortest temper of all the villains involved in this crossover... well.

Then they sic MetalGreymon and Flamedramon on his ass, naturally. He’s not really able to hold back two fiery Digimon with just his own firepower, so... yeah. Ass kicked.

He starts regretting not bringing the Titans.

Maleficent tries to take off and escape in her dragon form, but she didn’t count on Sora and Garudamon to come after her. What a magnificent, phoenix-y plot twist.

Nobody ever expects the giant phoenix. So Sora and Garudamon kick some ass, too, as they should.

Tai and Davis both try to say a really witty line to wrap it all up, and Sora ends up saying the wittier one. As she should.

Theirs was somewhat the easiest fight, but also the most amusing.

That leaves Matt, Kari, and Yolei to deal with Emperor Zurg. And, well, this one gets a little confusing.

Well, first, for some reason Matt dresses up like Luke Skywalker.

Yeah, that’s right, they’re doing this.

Basically, they pull a Last Jedi on Zurg, but without Palpatine. Somehow, Zurg falls for it. But I mean, he’s basically a human-sized toy, so I guess that’s not a surprise?

There was no lightsaber battle, though, which was a bummer. Instead, Kari and Yolei send in Silphymon and Weregarurumon to kick his butt and finish the job.

Not gonna lie, he was the easiest one to take down, mostly by sheer virtue of being a toy. But also because he somehow fell for the Luke Skywalker bit.

Matt won’t get out of the outfit now, why did we give him this power.

With Gennai’s help and Izzy/Ken/Yolei’s genius techno capabilities, they were able to send the villains back to their respective movies, where their usual nemeses were able to take care of them. Because for some reason, they didn’t show up and I lowkey forgot to even include them in any capacity because of how much brainpower the villain encounters cost me.

Until next time I guess xD

《 Ragatha & Her horse, Candy. 》

[*Funfact: Ragatha loves all the horses on the ranch, even centipede. But the problem is that some horses are more tempered than others.

Candy is the most well-behaved horses aside from Kinger's Star; Evelyn. Ragatha and Candy do their best, but they still can't seem to top the champion mares performance.*]

Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me - Xavier x Fem!Reader

So… I have a very long Spotify playlist full of songs that are fueling my inspiration to write about… stuff…

Go Easy on me, this is my first Cody rodeo and I have not written for a few years. Also, English isn’t my first language …

Description: You went to watch the Rocky Horror Picture Show with your friend Montana and a couple of her male friends. Everyone expected you to be the Janet of the group and Xavier is lucky enough to be your Rocky.

Warnings: Fluff, Smut, soft Xavier, sorta cuteness, virgin!Reader

You had just went to see the Rocky Horror Show with Montana, your flatmate, as well as a handful of her friends you had been hanging out with here and there when there was nowhere else to crash. You tucked your jacket closed over the sequinned bustier to protect your skin from the cold night’s air and then you hoisted yourself in your friend’s Van, your body still trembling from the “post show high”.

Gushing over the mind blowing performance that unfolded in front of you with Montana, the both of you dressed as Columbia and Magenta from the show. Her friend Xavier, driving his weed infused van in a very safe costume of Brad Majors, tried to jump in the conversation occasionally made the both of you giggle, amazed that he even enjoyed the show in comparison to Chet, wearing a pair of bright gold boxers shorts and boots. “I’m dropping you at your flat, ladies?” Xavier asked, pushing a giggle out of your blond friend’s throat.

“No thanks, X! I promised Chet I’ll go back to his’ if he came over as Rocky” she replied, earning a cheeky look back from the buff brunette. “alright then! I’ll drop both of you first then get Y/N back” the driver fed back, giving you a glace through the rear view mirror. Your flatmate giggled again at the sight of the look you just received, literally poking fun at you by digging her finger in your exposed thigh repeatedly. You had confessed to her that you were not indifferent to the blue eyed man ever since you saw him walk in the apartment and she had been trying to push you to jump on every occasion you ever had.

The adrenaline from the live performance made your mind spin and all of a sudden, 20 minutes flashed in a heartbeat and the next thing you knew, Chet and Montana were dropped to his flat and you were on your way to yours. A comfortable silence fell upon the both of you, only broken down by the soft voice of Xavier.

“so, you enjoyed the show, didn’t you? -Yeah! It was amazing! I’m disappointed you didn’t wear some garters and thigh highs, you replied in a laugh. - Believe me, sweet thing, you wouldn’t have been able to handle it if I came as a Transvestite. I should be even more surprised you dressed as Columbia. - And who did you think I was going to dress up as? - We all expected you to wear one of these mid length dress and a velvet headband and be the Janet of the group, Xavier teased, flashing you a half smile, I’m kinda disappointed as well to be honest.”

The soft buzz of the adrenaline started to wear off slowly as you kept some small talks with your driver. The familiar lobby of your flat came into view once you took the left turn at the junction and the soft hum of the engine was the only thing you could hear as the van parked up in front of the large glass double doors, the gentle glow of the neon lights from within lighting up half of the street.

You jumped out of the van, looking up at the building you called home. You heard Xavier shift the gear stick and you suddenly turned to face his passenger window, placing your hands on the open door frame, popping your head down into view and earning a surprised, but anticipating look from his stormy blue eyes. “Do you want to come up for a coffee or something?” you asked in a somewhat whisper.

You thought you saw his Adam’s apple bob up and down as he swallowed a gulp he was holding on to without his own knowledge. He silently took your offer and pulled his handbrake back up, pushing the gears back in neutral and turning off the ignition, withdrawing his keys and shoving them in his back pocket. He stepped out of his car while you retrieved your own pair of keys, shoving them in the lock of the glass door leading into the lobby.

You stepped in the warmer inside of the apartment complex, holding the door wide open for Xavier, trailing behind you. “Thank you for the invite, by the way”, he reminded himself while you pushed the elevator button. The soft voice sounding appreciative to receive a caffeine boost to fuel the rest of his drive home. You climbed in the lift, pressing number 3 and ascending to your flat, guiding your blond friend through the hallways of the building.

Pushing the keys to your apartment and opening the door for the both of you to come in, the comfortable silence growing steadily heavy from the moment you stepped out of the car. You navigated to the kitchen, grabbing a cup and preparing your coffee machine to pour a hot brew for your friend, the conversation peaking up about life and summer projects for the upcoming months. You poured his cup and, as he walked your way to retrieve the mug, you catch a drift of his smell. Was it his cologne that triggered that sharp tug in your stomach? Or maybe was it his pheromone filled sweat causing your hormones to spin and coil through your body?

You passed the cup to him, your fingers brushing against his, sending a shock of electricity down your spine. The feeling must have been mutual as he jolted slightly at your touch, trying to pas it off as simple static electricity. You exchanged a shy smile, totally unaware of what that feeling piling up in your belly means. You caught yourself staring at his fingers, letting your gaze winder down his arm, up the crook of his neck and onto his face, a somewhat surprised look on his face. He cocked up his brow as he noticed your lingering stare.

The subtlety of the head tilt and the slow leaning towards you took you by surprise, Xavier’s face resting but a few inches from you. “Next time we go, you should be dressing up as Janet so we can match, Y/N, I think it suits you better”, his soft voice whispered as you recoiled back shyly, deepening the space between your faces. You were convinced your flushed cheeks could radiate enough heat to warm up some omelet. The waft of his body hit your nose again and you closed your eyes, taking it all in.

He was right tho. You were Janet. Shy and only ever ever felt the soft pressure of a pair of lips against yours. But he was far from being Brad, at least from what you’d ever seen of him. The split second it took for Xavier’s words to escape his mouth seemed to last a lifetime. You parted your lips to speak but was cut off by him.

“ I’m sorry, I didn’t think Montana was lying… She told you you kinda had a thing for me, he kicked back, straightening himself fully. - No it’s- It’s okay, don’t worry. - I’ll have a word with her, i’m really sorry for making you feel uncomfortable. - Please, don’t… She wasn’t-She wasn’t lying, you stuttered, aligning your shoulders parallel to his. I’m just being awkward… I’ve never had someone come back home with me before.”

He looked away, the cold shroud of relief making his shoulders drop. He sighed in contempt and looked down at you, speckles of red staining his cheeks at the realization of the situation. Xavier placed the warm mug on the counter and shook his hands while stepping back. “Just because we’re into each other, doesn’t mean we have to do anything, ‘kay Y/N?” the blond one exhaled, his eyes widening once more “Sorry, I didn’t mean it this way! All I’m saying is that I’d love to just hang out with you” his voice stumbled in confusion as he brought his hands to the either sides of his head.

You softly chuckled, walking away from the kitchen counter and kicking off your shoes as well as jacket by the front door. A pair of slender arms linked around your waist and there it was again. That pulling coil binding itself to your core as his sweet aroma enveloped you. His lips attached themselves to your temple and for a second, it looked like he was taking in your scent as well. You tensed up to his touch, not used to this sort of attention. “I’m really sorry, Y/N, I just can’t help myself” his voice trembled against your skin, your hands shyly exploring the skin of his arms and resting on top of his calloused fingers. Goosebumps covered your skin when his lips landed against your cheekbone, releasing his digits from yours to graze the supple skin of your face.

His warm knuckles gently tilted your chin towards him, sinking in the ocean blue of his eyes. “Can I?” he whispered, his gaze trailing between your lips and your eyes. You gently nodded, twisting your body gently to rest in front of him. A sharp inhale inflated his lungs, his sight fixating itself upon your lips before he closed his eyelids, the plump and soft flesh of his lips gingerly landing upon yours, holding your chin and letting his other hand travel from your waist up to the sweet spot in between your shoulder blades, gently pressing his chest against yours. You slender fingers landed on his back, returning the kiss as your lips softened against his.

The cold air landed across your lips as he pulled away from your kiss. The burning tingling caused by the sweet embrace of your mouths spread through your chest , covering your arms in many more goosebumps than the previous touch, Xavier’s fingers shyly exploring the raised bumps on your arms. “are you cold sweetheart?” he asked, tilting his head to the side like the most adorable puppy. You shook your head no, looking down to his lips again, silently asking for more. “I’ve never felt like this before, the last kiss I ever received was during a stupid game of spin the bottle when I was 14”, you admitted.

It suddenly dawned onto him, straightening up once more. You adverted his gaze, feeling embarrassed of yourself. “Never…?” he breathed out, a certain level of concern booming in his voice. You sheepishly shook your head , trying your best to hide the flustered look on your face only to look up and fall once more in the deep sea of his eyes before he hesitantly planted another kiss against your lips, this one deeper and more desperate.

You softly whimpered against his mouth, pulling him a couple of steps back, backing yourself against the wall behind you. Following your lead, Xavier pushed one step further, pressing you against the concrete as his nose brushed yours, cocking his head to the side. Hormones filling up the air around you both, you trailed your hands from his back up to his neck, allowing your other palm to lose itself in his hair, the air growing thicker with a need for more.

He suddenly pulled back, shaking himself out of his burning state. His face somewhat twisted in a state of confusion. In this instant, you could read through him like an open book and doubt was the only thing written on his blank chapter. His frantic eyes looked around for some sort of confirmation that he was far from making a mistake and the only thing he found was your worried eyes and your fingers pressed against your own lips as if you were trying to retain the burning sensation of his own mouth pressed flushed on yours. “I’m so sorry, Y/N. I didn’t mean to…” he panicked before your hands wrapped themselves around the collar of his shirt, pulling him once more in a kiss, this time more heated and passionate then ever before.

You could feel your heart pumping in your chest, threatening to burst out at any second, his lips opening shortly after contact was made, his tongue splitting your mouth open and searching for yours. Following the only lead of your instinct and pushing your own out, deepening the heated embrace with a soft whimpering escaping your throat. Your digits slide on his shoulders, peeling off his jacket and letting it drop to the floor before the kiss was broken again but this time, his lips trailed down from yours down to your jaw, gently nipping at your skin and sliding off to your neck.

Heavily breathing against his chest, you started to feel that burning heat moving from your heart all the way down to your belly and to rest between your thighs. This times, it was you who pulled off of him, a lonely tear building up from your eye and rolling down your cheek.

“Hey, it’s okay, Xavier reassured you, pushing you in a tight hug. - I’m frightened, you breathed out, suddenly confusing panic with arousal. I don’t know what’s happening. - Shh, sweetheart, it’s alright, I’ve got you.”

His fingers laced themselves in your Y/H/C hair, cooing and shushing you softly and walking you towards the couch gently. Xavier sat you down on the sofa and retrieved an empty cup of water for you, finding a spot by your side. “I’m not sure what is happening” you confessed, your fingers trembling before you reached for his, looking up to meet his eyes, silently begging for one more hungry kiss. “I don’t know if I’ll be able to stop if we carry on, Y/N” Xavier admitted, rubbing his forehead with his free hand and pinching the bridge of his nose.

“I don’t think i would want you to stop, Xavier”. He lunged for your lips, laying you down impossibly gently against the pillows of your couch. Once more, his tongue seeked yours, this time fighting for dominance while his hips dug between yours. You shyly reached up and started to unbutton his shirt before his fingers wrapped around yours, making you rip it open, too eager to be able to feel more of your skin against his. The fabric of his shirt flew off of his body to fall on the floor. You pulled away from his lips “Not in here, please… I don’t want Montana to walk in on us…” you whimpered under him, the heat between your thighs growing hotter by the second.

He chuckled softly, getting back on his feet and pulling you up against his chest, placing a soft peck on your lips. “Lead me where you want me” he whispered in your ear, making the flustered stains on your cheeks grow more intense, your fingers tangling with his and guiding him to your bedroom. Leaving the door open behind the both of you, Xavier pressed his exposed chest against yours, his fingers looking for the zipper on the sequinned bustier covering your torso. Pulling it down a handful of teeth, he looked back at you, searching for any doubts in your eyes, finding only passion and envy. “Y/N, promise me you will not regret this”, he inquired while pressing his forehead to yours. “I would hate myself if you were to regret this”, he cooed, his free hand cupping your cheek. Tugging on your heart strings, your instinct pulled your forward, planting a soft kiss against his lips, your hands gathering by the buckle of his belt to pry it open.

An adorable smirk lingered on his lips as he pulled down the zipper, making you shiver as the cold air of your bedroom assaulted the soft skin of your chest, now exposed. Letting your top collapse to the grown, the blond’s fingers hooked themselves underneath your thighs, gently pulling you up and pushing your legs around his waist. His feet carried you both to the bed, pushing you against the mattress. You both took part in another heated kiss, begging for more in short bursts of whimpers and groans, his fingers now discovering your body, caressing your shoulders then your clavicle, ribs and finally making their way up against your breasts, ripping our a moan from you.

Xavier pulled off of your mouth and hissed at the sound of your moan, allowing his hand to travel down to the waistband of your short, sneaking slowly underneath the border of your panties. You dove into his eyes, working on opening your shorts and squirming out of them. The blond man peeled off your underwear just enough for you to feel the cold air hit your folds, realizing that you had been confusing this strange new feeling with anxiety. He shimmied out of his trousers, chucking them to the floor along with his socks, laying beside your naked body, only clad of his white boxers.

His eyes took in the view of your exposed body all in, noticing a small shiver covering your body. Another chuckle passed his throat and he pulled you in his arms, nudging the both of you under the covers. You joined in with a giggle and pushed your fingers against his cheek, stroking it and watching him lean into your palm. His body shifted on top of your while your kiss reinstate itself, less desperate and more gentle this time, your fingers losing themselves in his bleached blond locks while his own moved to caress your inner thigh.

Your lungs filled with air in a gasp as his digit stroked the edge of your folds, gathering wetness on the tips of his phalanges. “Fuck, I didn’t know you would be so w-” your lips pushed themselves against his again, bucking your hips up against his fingers, which Xavier pushed forward against your clit, stealing a moan from you. You crossed his gaze, now dark with lust, biting your lower lip and listening to your halting breath. Gently making his way to your entrance and maintaining eye contact with you, he slipped his calloused digit in your core, pushing another moan out of your chest, the new sensation unfurling new feelings deep inside your belly.

Thrusting gently inside of you, he seeked the spot that would make you mewl for him. Your E/C gaze traveled down to the throbbing ache in his boxers, trying to reach for it. His eyes met yours and, using the slight confusion at your advantage to pull his wrist out, wrap your legs around his wast and pushing his ever hardening groin against your own crouch, rolling your hips against him and ripping out a surprised moan from Xavier. “I don’t need foreplay. I want more” you begged, trying desperately to push down his boxers. A shiver run down his spine while he grinds his hips against yours. He looked back for his trousers, breaking off the contact from your burning skin.

He peeled off the underwear you tried so hard to pry off, having you averting your eyes shyly. He chuckled and reached back for the pocket of his pants, pulling out a condom from his wallet. “I promise, I didn’t plan this…” he said with guilt laced in his voice, blushing more than he had been already. “You’re fine Xavier, I promise” you echoed, somewhat begging for more contact. He laid back against you, dropping his lips against yours while his hands busy themselves opening the condom and rolling it upon his length.

Biting your lower lips and finally looking down to Xavier’s pulsating length wrapped between his thighs. His gaze traveled up to you again, catching you staring and pulling a small snicker past his lips before he lined up his hips. “If you want me to stop, just let me know and we’ll stop” he whispered, peppering your cheeks with gentle kisses. You nodded your head, smiling enthusiastically. He linked his mouth to yours in a tender peck, slowly pushing the tip of his cock between your slick folds, causing your whole body to heat up even more, gripping at the sheets and making a mental note to remember to breath. The pain subsided as he sunk deeper inside of you, his lung hissing in pleasure while you moaned in his mouth, confused as to whether it was due to pain or pleasure.

Once again, his lips departed yours, this time to allow a delectably sweet moan escape from him, pushed inside of your core fully. He paused for a few seconds, savouring the sheer pleasure of finally being buried between your thighs, then looked down, silently checking if you were alright. Your fists clenched around the sheets, you took a moment to adjust to this very new sort of pain. A pain so intimately tied to pleasure that the confusion was overly obvious, your eyes pleaded for him to stay and carry on, a bundle of nerves unraveling from the inside of your stomach.

That’s when he began thrusting, slowly at first, making sure you were comfortable, picking up the pace ever so slightly with your first moan. The head of his cock softly stroked against that unknown spot you had never dared to discover, as if he was made perfectly to please your deepest triggers. With a chain of hips clashing and skin slapping, his rhythm got quicker and the intense pleasure seamed to shred it’s way through your stomach, a thrashing tornado building up in your core and upon each stroke, a moan jumped out of your lips, matching his irregular grunts and growls. “Fuck, Y/N-…” he moaned as he buried himself deeper inside of you, quicker with every approval. He pulled himself down against you, one arm snaking around your waist and the other caressing the beautiful hills of your breasts.

How could you have waited so long to feel such a carnal and feral emotion? So raw and instinctive, it seemed perfectly impossible for your to never experience it ever again after this night. Sloppy kisses turned by heavy moans and whimpers and broad strokes helping you climb the obtuse slope of your climax. That deep coil tightened inside of you as you prepared yourself for a release, the intense and powerful pleasure nearly becoming uncomfortable. “I need it harder” you panted, pushing a string of swear out of your lover’s lips as his hips dug harder inside of you, pushing roughly inside your dripping cunt. The madness of your height force out loud moans and half assed cursing.

And it snapped. Your fingers reached for his back and your nails dug your way down from Xavier’s shoulder blades all the way to the small of his back, earning a soft wince from him. The clenching of your walls and the intense shaking and twitched got the sweaty boy moaning louder than before, his beautiful face torn in pleasure as his cock plucks deeper at you. “Yes, Y/N, cum for me”, he breathes out, stuttering and growling. His eyes open to fall upon the expression of raw pleasure clawing it’s way through your body. Pushing you through your orgasm, his hips rolled further than before, making sure to get you whimpering your way out of your climax, not fully realizing how close he was, himself.

Quickly propping yourself against him, your lips connected to the soft flesh of his neck, nipping and suckling at the pale skin of Xavier, parking your newly conquered territory as your height finally flushed itself out of your core. The slight pain of your love bite being just that little nudge to bring him right at the edge of his own climax, “I’m already going to c-” he tries to warn but the arms of Eros already reached for him and pulled him to the void of his own release, his whole body bucking, twitching and spurting into the condom, causing a slight whine to pass through your lips. His cock twitched again and his body clenches, filing up the empty space in the condom.

His chest collapses against yours, unable to keep his eyes open or even synchronized, still trembling against you, mouth agape. Planting a small peck on his lips for each uncontrolled twitches passing through his body, Xavier gingerly pulled out of you, leaving you feeling empty and with a swift movement, the condom is discarded and you find yourself pulled against his chest, a contempt smile across his face. You sigh softly, relaxing in his arms, drifting to slumber, gently lullabied by Xavier’s calming heartbeat.

Montana’s cheeky giggles is what wakes you up during the early hour of the morning, still laced and tangled in the arms of your still asleep lover. Her small frame is standing in the doorway, her Polaroid camera in hands, snapping a picture of the both of you burred deep underneath the covers of your bed and your clothes somewhat thrown around your bedroom. “Tell us about it, Janet” she teasingly joke, swiftly moving out of the bedroom and leaving the Polaroid snapshot drift to the floor, closing the door behind her…

Writer: Jason Aaron

Art: Mahmud Asrar, Gerardo Zaffino, and more

Publisher: Marvel Comics

Issues 1-12

Series: Vol. 1 (Issues 1-6) Vol. 2 (Issues 7-12)

Description:

Conan’s travels have brought him to the far reaches of the unknown, from his birthplace in Cimmeria to the kingdom of Aquilonia and all in between. As his fighting prowess allows him to carve his way through life, so too does it attract the forces of death! Come join Jason Aaron as he takes you through ”The Life and Death of Conan”.

Review:

Readers, Conan the Barbarian by Jason Aaron is well thought out, diagnosed perfectly, and spans across the life of the great Cimmerian Conan. If this is your first rodeo with this buckin’ bronco, you’ve come to the right series. This series is the perfect place for anyone interested in Conan to jump on board. Now, I cannot speak from the perspective of a longtime Conan the Barbarian fan but I can speak from someone who’s read this entire series AND as someone who has personally reviewed over half of the series. This is the run that made me want to read more Conan. And after reading many other back issues of a variety of Conan the Barbarian titles, Aaron does a phenomenal job painting his Conan in a similar fashion as the same sullen-eyed barbarian from yesteryear. Aaron finds a way to balance his new interpretation well by paying homage to what has come before him throughout each and every installment.

Jason Aaron captures the voice of the great Cimmerian perfectly and establishes a series that’s continuously exhilarating while exploring Conan’s past, future, and the developing force behind power and pride. He makes Conan extremely compelling and provides more twists and turns than a five-year-old with a sheet cake. Aaron throws new and old readers alike into this realm with a heavy dose of exposition at the beginning of the series, however, he plows open the flood gates with thrilling action and adventure towards the end of issue one and never turns back throughout almost every issue of this series.

At times, the story appeared to be skimming over the overarching theme of Conan’s death. Each issue was focusing more on his life, his trials, and how the Crimson Witch has always been there in some capacity lurking in the shadows. Thus, I found myself screaming for the fireworks factory towards issues 7 and 8. Regardless readers, you need to hang in there because issues 10, 11, and 12 are ridiculously unbelievable and some of the best comic writing I’ve seen in years. My, hands down, personal favorite issue, and possibly my favorite issue of Conan EVER, is issue 11. I won’t spoil it for readers BUT it very well could be in my top 15 favorite single issues of ANY character of all time!

To fans of Jason Aaron’s, you’ll experience hints of Odinson sprinkled throughout the issues and even a sense of “worthiness” within the character. Nevertheless, as someone who absolutely adores his THOR run, I didn’t mind it at all. Furthermore, readers will develop a sense that these issues have a vibe of one-shots with the ending tying together the overall story. This schematic and almost cinematic, breakdown of the titles isn’t far off and actually makes the series easy to hop in on at any moment to catch up. That said, the issues still blend together nicely making the puzzle fit together before the series concludes. The ending wasn’t exactly what I expected BUT it makes sense and is still pretty epic.

Now, as well-written as this story was, the art is what sets this series apart making it some next level $&@&! Mahmud Asrar’s art, who was on a majority of the series, creates striking and albeit breathtaking art that’s no doubt poster-worthy. His illustrations were savage and brutal yet eloquently magnificent at the same time. Asrar’s drawings are quite astonishing and will mesmerize readers throwing them deeper and deeper into the anecdote. His art is visually stunning while honoring Jason Aaron’s writing flawlessly. Together, these two are quite the unstoppable force. And truthfully, without Asrar, this series would still be good BUT not legendary.

By Crom, Jason Aaron’s twelve issue run is like a greatest hits of Conan epic adventures that would make past writers and creators of Conan Novellas so proud. Sure, this story may be a bit unique and bizarre but it’s totally worth the read. Conan the Barbarian by Jason Aaron and Mahmud Asrar is an excellent fantasy with otherworldly mysticism set to seduce new comic fans with ease. It’s an eye-opening series that should be used to get new readers introduced to Conan above anything else AND it’s not over. Aaron has a follow-up series on the horizon, which should pump up any and all Conan fans. Most important of all, readers will not want to put these two trades down, which at the end of the day is how you really know that you’re reading a great story.

CNN has acquired Canopy, a privacy-focused content personalization engine, for its upcoming news platform

Last year, The Information reported that CNN was working on a new digital news service to compete with the likes of Apple and Facebook. Today, some of those plans are taking shape. The Turner-owned news broadcaster has acquired Canopy, an all-purpose content personalisation that uses human curation, on-device machine learning and differential privacy to help readers discover things they actually want to see, while at the same kind keeping personal data private. The startup will become an anchoring part of CNN’s upcoming news project.

Canopy was founded in 2018, and to date its only product and commercial example of how it would work was an app that it had launched itself called Tonic. That app, Canopy tells me, will be wound down over the coming months, as the team and assets of the Boston/Brooklyn-based startup are integrated into its new parent.

CNN is not disclosing any of the financial terms of the deal, except to confirm that it is a full acquisition of talent (15 people in all), IP and other assets. Canopy — which was led and co-founded by Brian Whitman, the former co-founder of Echo Nest (the content recommendation company that became the basis of Spotify’s recommendation engine after it acquired the company) — had raised $4.5 million from Matrix Partners and E14.

Nor is CNN talking much yet about its new project, currently codenamed “NewsCo”, except to say that it is a “news and information platform connecting users to trusted sources, storytellers and creators across a wide range of topics.”

The initiative is part of a bigger plan at the company to build new products and services to meet the tastes, interests and needs of current but also new consumers. That, in turn, underscores a bigger, and longer-term, push from across all of the media industry — from other broadcasters, to those with their roots in print, and even online-native news efforts — to chase and capture that ever-elusive concept, audience, and the money that comes with it in the form of advertising, paid subscriptions, and more.

That “more” in many cases, controversially, has included data, which is swapped and sold across a range of known and less-known entities, from advertising networks through to other kinds of data aggregators and others. But it seems that this is where CNN is drawing a line, to see how and if it can build a service that doesn’t cross it. At least, that seems to be the hope: no services are launching yet, and we’ll only know how popular they are and the business model behind them when they do.

“There has never been a more crucial time to help people discover trusted sources around topics and issues that matter most to them,” said Whitman in a statement. “We’re incredibly excited to join the team at CNN to build some amazing products for their millions of global users.”

It’s worth mentioning that this is not CNN’s first rodeo when it comes to making an acquisition of a startup focused on content personalisation. Way back in 2011, the company acquired Zite, another company with a similar aim, “reading” what you read and watch to help you find more engaging content like it.

From what I understand, that deal was made by a previous leadership team at CNN, and during a time when there wasn’t a bigger plan for how and where Zite would fit into the bigger picture. Zite was eventually sold three years later to Flipboard with not a lot to show for the time it spent at its first owner (the terms were never revealed but at the time it seemed to be more of a partnership between CNN and Flipboard than a deal specifically for Zite).

“Timing, in life and in business, is everything,” a spokesperson at CNN told TechCrunch. “We didn’t get Zite quite right, because candidly, we didn’t have all the pieces in place at the time to be able to fully leverage the capabilities for which we acquired them. We made the right decision in selling Zite to Flipboard. It was the right outcome for everyone. And the lessons we learned helped us evolve as an organization.”

You might wonder why Canopy decided to sell up rather than partner, which had been the company’s original business model in building a recommendation engine that could be used for different kinds of content plays.

The company notably had not picked up any customers — at least none that it’s talking about — nor had it raised any further money beyond its seed round at launch — at least, none that it disclosed. It may be that in the days of mega-platforms like Apple and Google — which have billions to spend on experiments in content that may be revenue generators in their own right, or may just be a nice way of keep customers more locked into their ecosystems — it’s just too challenging to scale that kind of play as a standalone service if your aim is to be used by many.

“Our long term dream is to reach millions of people and help them navigate the increasingly complex world in a way that can only help them,” said Whitman in an emailed response. “This acquisition takes the big dream of Canopy and makes it much bigger. We’re going to build new ways for millions of people to connect with news and information while keeping their data safe and secure.”

Canopy had never released user numbers for Tonic, but it confirms that its data security expertise was part of the attraction for CNN, so expect to see more on that, with a product launch date “expected within a year,” Whitman said.

“This acquisition enables us to light up in a single transaction a proven, best-in-class team whose deep knowledge and skill sets would’ve taken many months or even years to assemble,” said CNN EVP & Chief Digital Officer Andrew Morse in a statement. “Canopy’s culture of fast-cycle, iterative software and product development will enable us to more rapidly realize our ambitions and deliver against our goals.”

Mike Watkins (Mike Indigo)

Who?

Mike Watkins / Michael Watkins / Mike Indigo. Michael Watkins Director of Indigo Digital Asset Management Limited Company number 12156748. Michael Watkins Director of Blocktraders Limited Company number 11731915. Website: Theholistictrader.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/HolisticTrader

Mike Watkins Background

Firstly - have a watch of this video - I am now facing the same situation from Mike Watkins - https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=33&v=kGFuz1As-mQ&feature=emb_logo Here are the comments from that video...

Youtube comments https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=33&v=kGFuz1As-mQ&feature=emb_logo This is then further backed up by the same person who made that video https://www.publish0x.com/cryptocurrency-educationblock-traders/my-crazy-crypto-story-4-months-of-slander-defamation-modifie-xdrzrn It is exactly what I am now going through with Mike Watkins. This is an insane situation - how has he been allowed to get away with all of this? What can I say... Tonight 14/04/2020 Mike Watkins has sent me multiple emails telling me he is going to sue me - I can only think it is in relation to putting him in the Scam list - for good reason - Mike Watkins has stated that he is FCA regulated - so everyone can see for themselves - have a look at these two screenshots...

Theholistictrader.com - "First FCA regulated Crypto fund in the UK"

Mike Watkins Twitter HolisticTrader - "CEO of an FCA Regulated Hedge Fund" Just to avoid any claims of impropriety here is the Google page results..

FCA REGISTER Now if you check the FCA register Mike Watkins / Michael Watkins nor the two companies he is a director of are FCA authorised/regulated for Financial Services Activity. - Mike Watkins is not FCA authorised nor regulated for financial trading activities. - Indigo Digital Asset Management Limited Company number 12156748 is not FCA authorised nor regulated for financial trading activities. - Blocktraders Limited Company number 11731915 is not FCA authorised nor regulated for financial trading activities. Stating you are FCA regulated when you are in fact not, is fraud. He has even tried to backtrack on these claims after I have exposed him, I have taken a copy of his website and his Twitter page for the FCA.

Abuse, harassment and stalking begins...

Tonights nonsense - 14/04/2020 Tonight I got a series of emails from Mike Watkins - I am posting them here for you all to see. Mike Watkins has fraudulently claimed he is FCA regulated and claimed A* J***** Limited are suing me. As you can read below as the evening progressed - he has then backtracked on both claims. EMAIL 1

EMAIL 1 EMAIL 2

EMAIL 2 - this came in after - note the timestamps - my email server must be rubbish... "We are now pursuing". Plus the GDPR stuff is nonsense - his name and address are already online. EMAIL 3 In this email he attached a document he thinks covers him for his FCA claim - it doesn't. It only mentions the Cayman Islands - as you will read in "email 4".

EMAIL 3 EMAIL 4

EMAIL 4 EMAIL 5

EMAIL 5 EMAIL 6

EMAIL 6 - backtracking on his FCA claim. EMAIL 7

EMAIL 7 EMAIL 8

EMAIL 8 EMAIL 9

EMAIL 9 - Now he sends this nonsense - classic behaviour. SUMMARY This shouldn't need much commentary - you can make your own assumptions up. This is almost a carbon copy of behaviour I get online in forums - almost word for word - I have seen it over and over again when I expose stuff - they genuinely lose it. When I say I get nothing for doing this I mean it, this chews up a stupid amount of time. Oh well maybe I will be rewarded in the after life or something.

UPDATE 1 15/04/2020 12:54pm

A* J***** Limited have responded to an email I wrote them this morning verifying Mike Watkins claims - I will not be sharing that email for confidential reasons (this mornings email is in addition to the one I copied them in on last night as above in EMAIL 3).

A* J***** confirm Michael Watkins is lying As you can read here above A* J***** is not suing me. As you can read above in EMAIL 1, Mike Watkins said, "Myself and my Fund Managers, A* J***** are formally launching Libel and Slander Legal proceeding for extensive damages due to your post" - it is a lie.

UPDATE 2 15/04/2020 14:00PM

Mike Watkins has now sent this and a bunch of emails claiming he has sent a writ to my address and that North Wales Cyber Crime Unit are investigating off the back of a "Fraud UK" report - its all bullshit. EMAIL 10

EMAIL 10 - claiming he has lodged a complaint with Action Fraud.

UPDATE 3 16/04/2020 08:36am

Site has been DDOS'd since this post went up. Note the spurious request used by the attacker? "GET /?s=fraud".

DDOS attack from 1400 16/04/2020 onwards. We finally got the site stable around 0200 16/04/2020. Since posting & sorting the DDOS, Mike Watkins has sent in a stream of emails. EMAIL 11

EMAIL 11 - "I will see you in Court". EMAIL 12

EMAIL 12 EMAIL 13

EMAIL 13 EMAIL 14

EMAIL 14 - claiming he is suing me... EMAIL 15

EMAIL 15 EMAIL 16 & 17

EMAIL 16 & 17 EMAIL 18

EMAIL 18 EMAIL 19

EMAIL 19 - Mike Watkins again tries to change tack and cover himself - it is still fraud. He knew what he was doing and has not changed his Twitter nor his Website - its fraudulent use of the FCA Authorisation/Regulation title. EMAIL 20

EMAIL 20 - Mike Watkins still claiming civil disputes are criminal offences and claiming North Wales Cyber Unit are involved. EMAIL 21

EMAIL 21 EMAIL 22

EMAIL 22

UPDATE 4 16/04/2020 11:49am

To say Mike Watkins is obsessed is an understatement. I cannot log into Facebook as it has been temporarily removed. See what Mike Watkins posted on Twitter...

Mike Watkins knows my Facebook page has been temporarily removed in the last few hours - why? Is this an admission from Mike Watkins? EMAIL 23

EMAIL 23 - more harassment from Mike Watkins.

UPDATE 5 16/04/2020 14:09pm

Now Mike Watkins has started following the backup page and sent me an abusive message with it. He has also been sending bizarre tweets, more emails - Totally Obsessive (Harassing) / Stalker behaviour.

Mike Watkins now following back up site as we had to copy data over whilst being DDOS'd.

UPDATE 6 17/04/2020 15:30pm

Mike Watkins has just sent in 20 emails in 47 minutes - More harassment and stalking - it all just gets added to the list. Note - Mike Watkins has already confirmed he lied above that he was FCA regulated. EMAIL 24

EMAIL 24 EMAIL 24 - 44

EMAIL 24 -44 - There are more above this up to 14:27 pm today

UPDATE 7 17/04/2020 - Twitter abuse and harassment

Screenshot of Twitter 17/04/2020 - abuse and harassment from Mike Watkins

UPDATE 8 17/04/2020 17:48pm - confirmation Mike Watkins lied about speaking to police

Here we have confirmation that Mike Watkins hadn't spoken to North Wales Police Cyber Unit - as I pointed out in "EMAIL 4" it was bogus, here you have confirmation that Mike Watkins has lied (again)...

UPDATE 9 17/04/2020 18:12pm

More harassment from Mike Watkins

RECAP 17/04/2020 17:00pm

Just to recap - since 14th April; -Mike Watkins has sent me abuse, harassment and is stalking me for posting that he is not FCA authorised/regulated. -After Mike being exposed ((and "A* J***** telling him") he is not FCA regulated) - he has now admitted that he is indeed not FCA authorised/regulated. - Mike Watkins has made false claims A* J***** were suing me. A* J***** confirmed they are not suing me, it was all made up by Mike Watkins. - Mike Watkins has made false claims he had spoken to North Wales Police Cyber Crime Unit. You can see the evidence above, where he has contradicted himself and clearly hasn't. - Mike Watkins says he has logged an online complaint with North Wales Police Cyber Unit. - Mike Watkins says he has logged an online complaint with London Metropolitan Police. - Mike Watkins has repeatedly made false allegations about me and/or what is on this website - you (including law enforcement) can all read what I have written - no laws have been broken by me. - This website has been DDOS'd twice - amazing coincidence. - My Facebook page was taken down - amazing coincidence. - Mike Watkins has spammed my email and Twitter with streams of abuse and harassment. As you can read from the Youtube video comments above - this is not an isolated incident by Mike Watkins. This is not my first rodeo - this is exactly the same behaviour I have encountered from people like this. The ones at the lower end of the scale are the most volatile. The false claims of Police involvement etc are a carbon copy of a case I faced 2 years ago. It should be abundantly clear to anyone now why I remain anonymous. You can see how dangerous it is if Mike Watkins finds out who I am - Mike Watkins is desperate to get my name and address. As I have pointed out in other posts; - I have nothing to sell. - Nothing I do is malicious - I am simply blogging about scammers committing fraud. All of Mike's actions are simply desperate attempt to get me to take the factually correct information down - that he is not FCA regulated when he has been selling & advertising on the basis he is. All the information is being collated and stored securely - the website is currently stable.

UPDATE 10 17/04/2020 18:32pm

Further lies and harassment from Mike Watkins - You have to make a report to your local police force first. In both cases (Met Police & North Wales Cyber Unit) - Mike Watkins hasn't done this.

Mike Watkins lying - you have to contact your local Police to file a crime. Also note the threat. Mike Watkins also posted this... and subsequently deleted it when I posted that he is the one fraudulently claiming he is FCA regulated.

My Twitter reply... Mike Watkins also posted this below - its just further lies. The Police have to investigate to see if a crime has been committed - Mike Watkins will have to supply evidence - of course there has been no crime committed by me. Mike Watkins is simply desperate to get my name and address - he is hell bent on a "court date" - obviously that's not how things work.

Tweet from Mike Watkins A stream of abuse/spam/harassment Tweets on Twitter. There is pages and pages of it. He has spammed my Twitter and my email with this - it is clear who did the DDOS.

Tweets from Mike Watkins

More abuse from Mike Watkins

Also in the tweets... In the Tweet in the left, Mike Watkins says he is in Cornwall - yet if you look on the right, the very same day 16/04/2020, the IP address he sent that abuse via Wordpress.com is his home IP in the North Wales area. So yet another lie - this lie is that he doesn't have access to computers.

UPDATE 11 17/04/2020 19:35pm

Alleged Fraud? Huh?????? So far Mike Watkins "says" he has contacted; - Action Fraud (Police Fraud Intelligence Bureau) - London Metropolitan Police. He should contact his local Police force. - North Wales Cyber Crime Unit. He lied about having spoken to them the same day, Action Fraud will not have redirected him that quickly (he said he reported me to Action Fraud - for what I do not know) - this is now confirmed by the above. Now, after never having spoken to North Wales Cyber Crime Unit, apparently North Wales Police have redirected him to the Financial Investigation Unit. - and now he says he has contacted North Wales Police - as you can see here they have re-directed him to the Financial Investigation Unit. Note the bit above about "Alleged Fraud" and having to log a case to Action Fraud - huh, what fraud, by whom? himself? Are these all photoshop or what? Remember so far - all I have done is said, "Mike Watkins has lied - he is not regulated by the FCA". Everything you read above is a result of that. I welcome any Police investigation so they can see the facts. I had already spoken to North Wales Cyber Crime Unit 15/04/2020 & 16/04/2020 via their social media channels to make them aware of the situation - I gave them the blog. Remember - all Mike Watkins wants is my name and address.

UPDATE 12 18/04/2020 11:00am

Mike Watkins has DDOS'd the site after posting this https://forexcrypt.com/mike-watkins-harassment-update-18-04-2020/ He also posted this to his Twitter - I was correct - it was him that had my Facebook page down - look how many reports he made. Further harassment. Mike Watkins shared this on Twitter - he is not very bright, he is sharing evidence of targeted harassment.

UPDATE 13 18/04/2020 16:50pm

More nonsense from Mike Watkins via twitter (and he's deleted all the abusive tweets he sent - I have a copy of the page for Law enforcement).

Tweets from Mike Watkins EMAIL 45

EMAIL 45

UPDATE 14 18/04/2020 17:53pm

Admission from Mike Watkins it is him DDOS'ing this website. (It was blatantly obvious with the request signature and timing).

UPDATE 15 19/04/2020 14:50pm

Here is evidence of him DDOS'ing the website

DDOS stats from cloudflare

DDOS stats from cloudflare Mike Watkins is using bots/paid for reviews & followers for his social media - the further I investigate the worse it gets. Mike Watkins has been caught falsifying Police reports.Mike Watkins has been caught falsifying claims of a company called A* J***** Limited suing me.In the video above from Youtube you can see he doctored Thailand SEC emails. You can watch it here - https://www.publish0x.com/cryptocurrency-educationblock-traders/my-crazy-crypto-story-4-months-of-slander-defamation-modifie-xdrzrn I don't believe anything Mike says or publishes to be true. The Police reports are all vexatious/lies - he has been logging them from burner accounts and just posting the screenshots. Hence he deleted the FCA email - it showed his burner account. He is simply posting Vexatious Police reports as a scare tactic. I got an email to say look at Mike Watkins Youtube and Twitter followers rising by hundreds per day - its not possible if you search for him online - you can find little about him, there is no way its real traffic. To confirm this - have a look at this below - this is his Youtube - all fake likes. You don't get 4 likes per comment like that - this is all paid for/bots doing this.

You tube with fake likes striped uniformly across his page There is absolutely nothing real to this guy is there? I suspect this goes a lot deeper than we can see. He sits at home watching his CCTV of his front driveway from his back bedroom - if it wasn't already obvious from his behaviour above - there is something very, very wrong here. To be clear - I have done nothing wrong, no law broken. All I did was post correctly, Mike Watkins was fraudulently using the FCA Regulated title as a sales tactic - look what has happened since. I welcome any Police investigation from any country/agency. I will gladly help put this guy away - this is obscene. I have sent pdf copies and/or links to this page and the harassement page on Mike Watkins to; North Wales Police Cyber Unit 16/04/2020North Wales Police 18/04/2020London Metropolitan Police 18/04/2020

UPDATE 16 19/04/2020 15:27pm

UPDATE 18 22/04/2020 16:51pm

Further harassment via email from Michael Watkins with yet MORE vexatious reports to the Police. EMAIL 46

EMAIL 46 What fraud?What theft?What lies?What harassment? Of course there is zero evidence - its all lies by Michael Watkins as a scare tactic. Everything on this page is presented as 100% fact by me. Its in the screenshots - you cannot contest it. If anyone wants to, we can have a third party forensically verify everything on here is 100% fact? North Wales Police have been sent this blog and have a copy of it in pdf format. I have been transparent with them and welcome any investigation so they can see the facts - Michael Watkins is a harasser, a stalker, and a fraud - It is explicitly clear to anyone reading this blog. This yet another vexatious report by Michael Watkins full of lies. Why would anyone share (Crime Reference Numbers) CRN's over the internet? - They wouldn't unless they are used as a scare tactic. Further, he is still desperate to get my address in the belief the Police will hand over someones address for civil dispute. He keeps talking about court... Michael Watkins has now stated he has lodged reports with; – Action Fraud UK (UK Police Fraud Intelligence Bureau)– North Wales Police UK– North Wales Police Cyber Unit UK– Australian Cyber Security Service (Australian Govt)– Queensland Police (Australia)- The Financial Conduct Authority UK All bogus/Vexatious reports.

UPDATE 19 22/04/2020 20:46pm

Mike Watkins' Twitter account @holistictrader is in the sin bin for sending harassment (should be permanently banned but there we go). Tonight Mike Watkins has sent abuse from fake account @ken_williams012 I checked the profile picture... The profile picture is stolen from Blockchain Bob (@riskfreeswinger) an actual trader with real signals. After uncovering Mike Watkins he blocked me on the @ken_williams012 account. Note Mike Watkins has now changed the picture on @ken_williams012 Mike Watkins is a proven Fraud. To top it off - he then sends tweets to himself from @holistictrader to @ken_williams012

CONCLUSION 23/04/2020

Pending any more harassment... This is the final post on this nonsense - what the fucking hell did I get into here????? 8 days of sustained harassment for writing the truth, Michael Watkins was listed on the scam warning page for fraudulently using the title, "FCA Regulated" - when he wasn't. I was 100% correct, everything stated is 100% fact. It has been confirmed by his "fund managers" - They are simply a third party fund setup vehicle who would setup a Cayman Islands Limited company for him (AKA the fund). Here is his email 19 again - I have pointed out issues with it;

Email 19 with my notation. In the contract he signed (yes he signed it, so cannot plead ignorance/misunderstanding) it explicitly states;

Phase 5 in contract he sent me in email 2 "Infrastructure Proposal"

Michael Watkins signed the above where it explicitly states formation at phase 5. Now, I checked the Cayman Islands company register for 'Indigo Digital Discretionary Limited' - it doesn't exist. His fund setup vehicle partners confirm here below he never got to phase 2 as he had stalled on them. READ THAT AGAIN. MICHAEL WATKINS NEVER EVEN GOT TO PHASE 2 out of an 8 PHASE PROCESS to onboard clients as a Cayman Islands registered Limited Company (AKA the 'fund') under CIMA regulation.

email back to Michael Watkins from his fund setup vehicle partner A* J***** So there you go, Michael Watkins is a fraud. Michael Watkins stated he was an "FCA Regulated Hedge Fund Manager" - that is a total lie - its actually 2 lies. - No Fund. - No FCA regulation. It isn't an oversight, it isn't a misunderstanding - he has sent me the contract (Infrastructure Proposal) in email 2 to 'prove' he had a "UK Hedge Fund"...

Email 2 - lies yet again. Even better - he has lied in the email he says he sent North Wales Police - email 13. (note wasting Police time for a civil dispute...)

email 13 where Michael Watkins lied to Police - his company was not managed by any Fund Manager - he never set up Indigo Digital Discretionary Limited! Fraudulently using the title of FCA Regulated when you are not, as part of a sales tactic is a scam, it is fraud. Not only is he a fraud - he is a serial liar, a harasser, a stalker, a cyber bully and misuses computers by spamming and sending DDOS attacks. Everything here is 100% fact & independently/forensically verifiable. North Wales Police have been sent this blog - I will not tolerate any harassment/bullying from Michael Watkins.

UPDATE 20 26/04/2020 15:49pm

The abuse and harassment has not stopped. Today I have caught Michael Watkins holistictrader faking positive reviews of himself in an interview on Youtube with New Kids on the Blockchain. He has used exactly the same accounts - I have created an article here and asked New Kids on the Blockchain for comment. https://forexcrypt.com/michael-watkins-holistictrader-featured-on-new-kids-on-the-blockchain-caught-faking-positive-reviews/

Request for Information if you have been scammed

People are sending me information that they have on Mike Watkins - if you have more please send it in - I will keep this page updated and hopefully we can all collate something for the regulators/agencies to see and put this to bed - No one should have to endure abuse, harassment, stalking or threats from scammers like this - this is obscene - the agencies/regulators are failing us if they cannot get a grip on people like this. If you have been scammed you need to contact the local financial regulator and Police Fraud department in your area. Read the full article
