let’s take a ride
Jaime reyes x F!Reader
Warning: slight smut
[a/n: I’m still planning on seeing blue beetle again eventually or might just wait for it to release on dvd in December or November wrote this somewhat fast dealing with a lot of family stuff atm]
[Y/n] smiled as she sat next to Jaime on the roof. Of the newly rebuilt Reyes household. The two held a beer bottle in their hands as the looked out at the city, “So what’s next?” She asked him, and he looked over at her.
“Your a superhero now,” She said to him and he chuckled, “My favorite one might I add,” She said, gently nudging him and he couldn’t help but blush as he took a sip of the beer.
“Honestly, I don’t know find a job keep working. I still wanna help my family.” He said, and she smiled at him.
“You’re so lucky a family that supports and loves you.” She said, taking a sip of her beer.
“Me… mine could care less it’s always.” She said.
“You should be more like your sister, Elizabeth.”
“You should be more like your sister.”
“Why can’t you be more like your sister.”
She sighed shaking her head as she leaned back, “It’s frustrating, when you have parents who don’t appreciate you for just being you. And doing things that you like that differ from their perspective.” She said sadly, and he looked at her sadly.
He placed a hand on her shoulder. She smiled softly as she turned to look at him, “That’s why I’m happy I have you and your family in my life, I always feel welcomed like I’m one of your own.” She said to him.
“You are apart of this family.” He said, and she smiled gently nudging him. “So…” She said, nervously.
“Are you and Jenny like dating now?” She asked curiously, he looked at her confused. “What? O-oh no we’re just friends.” He said nervously and she quietly letted out a sigh of relief.
“Oh, I thought you liked her.” She said to him. Taking another sip, “At first i did. But then I realized I had feelings for someone else.” He said to her. And she cursed under her breath. Why couldn’t she just tell him how she felt without getting scared.
“Jaime.”
“Y/n.”
They chuckled nervously as their hearts pounded against their chest. They locked eyes with each other blushing, “U-Um, so if you don’t mind me asking who’s the lucky girl?” She asked, looking at him.
“She’s someone really special to me, and I’m lucky to have her in my life.” He said, and she could feel her heart breaking with every word he said, “She always seemed to make me laugh whenever I was down. I don’t know what I would do without her.” He said.
“She sounds amazing.” She stammered, looking down sadly.
‘Tell her Jaime’
Khaji-Da said and Jaime coughed nervously, as he turned his head to look at [Y/n]. “What’s her name?” She asked, looking at him. “Wondering if I might know her?”
“Her name is Y/n.”
“Y/n, wow she’s got the same name as me th-”
“Wait what?” She turned to look at him in shock. Her heart racing, “Y-You like me?” She mumbled, looking at him and he nodded nervously.
“I-I have for awhile honestly I’ve had a crush on you since we were kids.” He said, and she looked at him and smiled softly.
“I-I wow… I like you too.” She said to him. Her heart pounding against her chest as they wrapped their arms around each other smiling. After pulling back, they kissed each other on the lips.
She wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him closer, while he wrapped his arm around her waist.
She moaned quietly into his mouth, as his hand traveled underneath her shirt. They could feel the heat from each other’s bodies. He placed another hand on her cheek pulling her closer.
Jaime was in another world of his own in this moment. Not even acknowledging Khaji-Da’s voice saying, how his endorphins and dopamine levels were off the charts. His heart rate even quickened.
She smiled softly feeling his lips against her over and over again. She placed her hand on his chest. As the kiss continued, his hand slowly made its way down towards her pants unbuttoning them slowly.
“Jaime.” She moaned into his mouth quietly. He placed one hand on her leg while the other crept its way, into her pants. Slowly making his way up her inner thigh.
He carefully pulled her closer, “You are absolutely gorgeous,” He whispered into her mouth. She wrapped her arms around his neck. He rubbed his fingers against the fabric of her panties. She gasped into his mouth, as her entire body started to get warm.
“You two better not be doing what I think you’re!” Rudy shouted, from below causing the two to quickly pull away from each other. Embarrassed, [Y/n] quickly buttoning back up her pants she glanced over at Jaime.
“I-I should probably be heading back home.” She said her cheeks still red. She carefully slid her body down the roof and landed on her feet.
“Wait?” He called out climbing down and landing on his feet. “Um, let me give you a ride.” He said, and she looked at him teasingly.
She smiled at him mischievously, “I wouldn’t be opposed to that.” She said and he chuckled as he stepped closer to her. “I was talking about a ride to your house but~” He said to her. Smiling as he wrapped an arm around her waist, “Now that you mention it.” He whispered, looking into her eyes as she looked at him. His heart pounding against his chest.
Blood rushing towards his-
“You’re undressing me with your eyes,” She chuckled, as the beetle armor appeared on his body burning off his clothes. “Oh, I’m doing more than that.” He whispered into her ear, causing her to shiver.
He then kissed her passionately on the lips, wrapping his arm around her waist. “Yeah, I’d love to go for a ride.” She said winking at him, her lips plump from the kiss. He smiled telling her to hold on as they flew off.

The BD/DVD cover for Volume 6 of Buddy Daddies!! 😭😭😭💖💖💖
Tumblr media
Kazuki looks so smug. like "This is my amazing daughter!" and Rei looks so modest, happy, and shy. I love how Rei's smile is still a bit lopsided and awkward, even after 10+ years of smiling. That's very realistic and makes his smiles even more special and precious.
Also, we see that Miri is being lifted off the ground just a tiny bit, and they are holding her hand. So thjs image is a call back to both the scene at the end of Episode 3 and the race scene during Sports Day! 💗

Warnings? - READER IS OVER THE AGE! just for clarification thank you :() also it's a fem!reader this time I'm sorry if anyone identifies differently 😞 I promise I'll start doing more neutral stuff. Also this could potentially get a part 2 if you're interested! VERY LIGHT SMUTTY ASPECTS IM SO SORRY I FORGOT ABT THAT
Tag list : @sarahs-secrets2 :))
"I'm sorry," his voice drawled into the speaker, "Repeat that for me, doll?"
You were huddled up in your room, hands clasped over the phone as if it were going to leap out of your reach. You couldn't get enough of it. His voice.
".. Nothing.", you whispered back, trying to keep composure. It wasn't even yours - you wouldn't want your dad questioning why you had his number, his best friend's number.
"No, no, you've pulled me in now. How come you're getting all shy?", he let out a breathy chuckle, barely heard from your side of the call.
".. Are you laughing at me?", you couldn't help but smile.
"Hm.. Maybe.. I don't see why you don't just come on over and find ou-"
"Y/N! I'm going to need my phone back now!", your dad was now calling from the hallway. Shit.
You had told him you were looking for birthday presents on his phone - God, what would he say if he knew what you were doing?
"Okay- bye-", you cut yourself off, now dropping the phone into your lap.
Your dad came in, smiling, "Did you have a good look?"
"Yeah, I'm sure you'll find something great for me anyways.", you got up promptly, handing him his phone back.
"Well, I've got to head out and pick up a delivery. You okay on your own here?"
"Oh, that's the thing, Dad... Is it okay if I go over to see Phillip? He's got this dvd that he was gonna show me.", you were lying through your teeth and it felt like pure tar coming out of your mouth. You couldn't help it though, it would probably be for the best if your dad never knew.
"Of course, sweetie. Do what you're doing and I'll see you later.", he left.
The door clicked open, Phillip instantly taking up the space in the doorway as he made eye contact with you.
"Hey, doll.", he smiled.
His dirty blonde hair was brushed to the side as usual, but today he was wearing a dark polo shirt which clung to his biceps as he crossed his arms over his toned chest.
"Hi.", you didn't know what to say; your heart was still racing from your almost scandalous phone call not so long ago.
"Why don't you come on in?", he moved aside, making way for you.
You walked inside slowly, taking cautious steps on the smooth marble. Phillip was acting as if he didn't remember, as if the phone call never happened. You didn't know how to react, but decided it was best to just go with it.
"My dad's just gone out to.. Get something for me."
"Yeah, I heard it's going to be his little princess' birthday soon.", he followed after you, you could feel his eyes wandering from the folds in your shirt to your jeans.
You didn't realise your dad still referred to you as that, it felt so embarrassing to hear Graves mention it. You hadn't been called that for years.
"Well... I'm hardly l-little anymore.", you sputtered, laughing nervously as you took a seat by the kitchen island. You rested your elbows on the counter and had your eye on Graves as he leaned against it.
"Is that so?", he turned to face you, smirking ever so slightly.
"... Yes.", you were at a loss for words in the presence of this man.
"Well, you want anything special for your birthday, doll? My treat.", Graves' tone was friendly, inviting and genuine. He meant it.
"No, it's okay, Phillip.", you smiled at him, fidgeting with your nails. Calling him Phillip was reserved for times when you were both alone, it was much more warmer and felt quite personal to you.
"Okay, I'll just keep it a surprise then. I can't just not buy you a birthday present. It would be out of line...", he continued to mutter to himself as he walked off, presumably into the living room.
You eyed him curiously, before frantically reeling your gaze away from his ass - he looked really good in those pants.
"Come on! I need some help with something." he called out, which made you jump and follow him curiously. It was obvious he lived alone. Heck, he was probably the only lonely person on this street, everyone else had a family or at least a spouse. Many figured it was due to his job; being stationed all over the world and having to run off whenever he was called was inconvenient for a spouse.
It never bothered you though. It was only until you started making advances that he caught the idea and would play along, until he'd have to leave for awhile - which could range from a month to around a year. The last time you'd been speaking before this week was last year's 4th of July party. As the fireworks went off, you two were hooking up in the nearest bathroom.
Sometimes you wished one day he could even get called in and never come back. You knew how horrible it was, but sometimes you wondered if it would continue. It's only a little fling, you would tell yourself repeatedly, pacing around the room as you could hear it on loop. It was so bad to think, but the thought of telling your dad about this someday was the only thing that kept this thought strong and you hated it.
As you entered the living room, Phillip was perched by the cabinet in the corner of the room. The door was wide open as piles of CDs towered over one another, the plastic covers shining as the light reached them for a considerably first time in awhile.
"I've been needing to go through these ever since I got back..", he chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck as his gaze shifted from you to the CDs.
"Oh, sure.", you complied, now eyeing the CDs properly and scanning through the titles. God, he had a lot of classics.
"I'm sorry, the Evil Dead?", you turned to him, holding the CD in your hand accusingly in his direction.
"Hm? Oh, I never liked that. My colleagues kept talking about it once so I picked it up and watched it. Too bloody.", Phillip shrugged, taking it in his hands and tracing his fingers over the cover. "I'm keeping it."
"What?", you raised your eyebrows, amused by his contradiction, "You just said you didn't like it."
"True, but.. It's good memories.", he cast a fond smile at it before shelving it once more.
You narrowed your eyes and rested your hands in your hips, "I don't suppose you're going to say that for all of them."
"What? No, of course not."
"Okay." you let out a sigh, "You asked me to help, so I'll help."
It had been over an hour and the two of you had managed to go through all the DVDs in the cabinet. A huge black bag was now filled to the brim and the cabinet was half empty, looking somewhat respectable now.
You had been holding your shirt up to your nose for most of the process due to the unbelievable amount of dust that coated some of the CDs. However, that didn't stop you from ordering Phillip on which DVDs he had to drop. The way he pouted almost swayed you, but you kept an iron fist and commanded him through the whole process.
You also noticed how he had been looking at your exposed stomach due to you pulling up your shirt slightly, the glint in his eyes were carnal.
Both of you were now laid back on the couch, trying to catch your breath. You had your arms rested loosely at your sides, but Phillip laid his over his chest, fingering the fabric of his polo softly as he was looking out onto the backyard through the window.
"How.. How was that?", you didn't move, but could feel his position shifting as he was about to answer.
"Quite nice actually..", he murmured. It was quite rare to see him so.. Calm? Was that the word? He seemed so vulnerable in this moment that you felt as if one wrong move would disrupt it.
"Oh, that's good..", you smiled, your breathing was still shallow and a little unsteady from all that heavy lifting.
"I don't suppose you.. Have to go now..", he was pausing to take small breaths, still looking away from you.
Shit.
You hadn't checked your phone the whole time you were here.
Trying not to change the mood, you picked it up smoothly and switched it on.
You have 0 notifications.
You couldn't help but sigh as you fell back into the cushions.
"No.. I'm fine, I can stay."
"Good.. Good..", you could hear him learning into the sofa more as he had a hand on his chin. He was thinking, but about what?
"I just wanted to.. Talk about that phone call earlier.."
Oh.
Oh.
The sofa creaked a little. He was moving closer now.
A warm hand slid around your shoulders, fingers tracing over your collarbone lightly.
"Doll, you know I like to tease at times..", his voice was husky and low, you could feel his hot breath on your cheeks.
"Mhm..", you let out a whisper, avoiding eye contact so you didn't have to meet his almost ravenous gaze.
"I.. I just love seeing that damn look on your face.. The way you laugh at me.. It's all quite cute, really, and it's been making me think.."
His other hand reached to cup your cheek, you could feel the callouses and bumps that have been worn into his palms overtime. He stroked your cheek, tilting his head slightly to get a better view of you.
"I just wanna know how cute you'd be in my bed, that's all.."
Blush was creeping up your cheeks at an alarming rate, you could feel your face getting hot, your throat becoming dry and your hands aching to unbutton his restricting polo.
"What do you say, doll?"
You couldn't help but nod, before swallowing and blurting out, "Yes, God yes-"
You wrapped your arms around his neck suddenly and kissed him. Hard.
He reciprocated, pushing against you as his hands were now sliding up your shirt and hastily unclipping your bra.
You gasped, letting out a quick, "Phillip!", feeling him smirk against your lips as he was now cupping your breasts with his bare hands, making you almost melt at his touch. You've been waiting for this for too long, nothing could stop you-
A sudden ringing from nearby.
You both instantly sprang away from one another, whipping your head around frantically to find the source.
Your phone.
Your dad was calling.
Your eyes widened as you answered and held it to your ear, Phillip resting his head on your shoulder, his hand was now on your thigh.
"Oh, hey Dad.."
"Hi, sweetie, bad time?" God, its like he almost knew.
"No! No.. Uhm, what's up?", you sharply inhaled, feeling his fingers tracing up and down your leg.
"I just wanted to see if you were still with Phillip, I've gotta ask him something."
You froze in your seat, before remembering how you had told him you would be here. This whole fiasco was like an undercover mission.
"Oh.. Yeah.. Here.." you chuckled weakly, holding the phone up to him.
Phillip cleared his throat, still caressing your thigh, he responded, "John, what's the matter?"
As he spoke to him on the phone, his hand was getting closer and closer to the button on your jeans. He was grinning smugly as he talked, not even looking to see your reaction.
"Oh, no need to worry, I'll have princess home soon.", before you knew it, the call had ended and he wasn't moving.
Phillip turned to look at you, fondness could be detected in the way he was eyeing you.
"Doll..", he rasped, smiling weakly, "You need to get on home now."
".. What?", you sat up straight, trying to ignore how hot his voice was.
"I don't want your daddy thinking anything... Wrong.. Is happening."
Your heart raced, "Does he know-"
"No, no..", he pressed a finger to your lips, "I just.. I think it's best for you to head off now."
He was lying and you knew it.
You could see the dejected demeanour as he guided you to the door. You could definitely see the bulge he was now sporting as a result of you.
The door slammed behind you just as you started to leave. You already knew he was finding a way to get rid of that. It was easy to imagine; Phillip pacing the tiled floor, cursing under his breath as he probably stripped down to take hot, steamy shower.
Oh God, it's so weird to live so conveniently close to a really hot guy.
You're sure your birthday barbecue will be much more interesting.

besties can i just say omg so i went thru ur blog obsessively bc i looove the ideas behind ur headcannons and little snipets of stories. i was wondering what bobby headcannons u guys have. also memory i loove ur writing and roe?? gorgeous fanart oml
AWWWWW THANK YOUU!!! rhis is so sweet 😭🫶🫶 i saw your comment on my fic thank u sm
im gonna be honest, we dont have many bobby hcs (i really wanna change that, i fucking ADORE bobby - and, if its any help, i actually have a fic up ((dont look back in anger)) where he’s a main character!! although its an au, i hope it’ll suffice for now :3)
- bobby is definitely a prankster, but like, hes NOTORIOUS for it. and not in the bad way. he has silly pranks that only mildly inconvenience the person on the receiving end (like the dumping water on lmq and cals heads after races) and he’s Always at the scene of the crime when something silly happens. he just Is the embodiment of silly. and yes i know this is canon for the most part but hes literally just so silly i cant not include it
- hes the youngest of the trio, the baby, even, he’s a december baby, born in 1988 (same year as lightning - cal is an ‘87 baby i believe - so when bobby started racing in 2007 he was still 18) but just at the End, whereas lightning was born in may . despite this he’s still the tallest, and probably the most well built of the three . aka lightning is scrawny and cal is just Average. and when lightning makes fun of him for being a Baby hes like ok well ure literally short as hell. what about that. huh? what can you do about your height? i’ll have a birthday but you dont have a get taller day? huh? and lightnings like. well. okay.
- i feel like he befriended cal first, like, he and lightning “hated” each other but it was less hate and more lightning being incapable of making friends (lmq and cal met at the infield care center after strips crash, so they were friends ever since then) and so cal was just in the middle of this “rivalry” that was in reality like. hey. cal. i think that bobby guy is really cool do u think he’d wanna be my friend. and cals like I DONT KNOW TALK TO HIM? and they talk and theyre like wow i actually thought u hated me (theyre best friends now)
- bobby both has an iconic autograph, but hes also so good with his fans its impossible for anyone to hate him. he has so many iconic pictures and literally everyone he meets praises him for his kindness and blatant silliness . hes just super easy going and generally amazing to be around
- out of all the racers hes probably got the most amusing advertisements as well, he will go ALL IN for whatever octane gain (or his smaller/secondary sponsors) want from him, and its so Genuine it just feels like he LOVES to be there
- he loves taylor swift. AND I KNOW WHAT YOURE GONNA SAY. “ITS STEREOTYPICAL” BUT NO U DONT GET IT.. SHE DOESNT MATCH THE REST OF HIS MUSIC TASTE AT ALL. hes the last person you’d ever expect to listen to her. he says its because they have the same last name so hes obligated to be a fan, but also the day Taylor Swift (album) debuted he bought the dvd and forced the other two to listen to the entire thing multiple times on a road trip and its safe to say that since the day taylor swift has existed, lightning and cal have feared her album release dates.
- hes the burnout king. every race he wins he will do a burnout down the frontstretch in front of the grandstands that will take his tires down to the RIMS. the tire marbles are INSANE
THIS IS ALL I HAVE IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY 😭😭 i wish i had more and i WILL eventually make more trust me on that.. but thank you so much for the ask and i hope u liked them :3

Halloween Movie Marathon
Tumblr media
Ryan Hudson x Plus Size Reader
You were currently finishing the final touches of preparations for your Halloween movie night, while dancing to She Wants Revenge.
Suddenly you heard a creak of wood.
Your body tensed up, and your heart rate quickened.
"What was that?" You thought
You'd think after everything you've seen while being around the Drew crew, you wouldn't be scared of ghosts or the creeks of the floor.
You spun around at the sound of the door creaking open, getting ready to run away from it.
Where you saw the sight of your amazing partner Ryan in a blue shirt and orange ascot holding a bag of your favorite takeout, you sighed in relief that it wasn't a killer or a killer ghost.
"You scared the hell out of me! I thought you were a killer! Ryan I mean Fred!" You said, breathing out, and smiled.
"I'm so sorry! I thought you heard me, y/n/n I mean Daphne!" He said, smiling, setting the bag on the coffee table in the living room.
You wear a purple shirt, skirt and a green bandana around your neck.
You slugged your arms around him, hugging him.
His cologne consumed your senses
aroma of fall pine trees, and cinnamon.
He wrapped around you, kissing the top of your head.
"You smell amazing!" You said, muffled into his shirt.
"Thank you!" He said, chuckling and smiling.
You both pulled apart from the hug.
"What movie first?" He asked,
"(Your favorite horror movie)!" You said, smiling.
"Yes, the best!" He said, smiling.
You put the DVD in as Ryan got the food out and set it up.
~
You both had finished eating, now you were in the middle of the movie, cuddling up against each other, his arm wrapped around you, your head on his chest, soft heart beats in your ear. Your eyes glued to the screen no matter how many times you had watched it, it was just as entertaining and surprising as the first time.
You lifted your head from his chest, your eyes finally wandered from the screen to Ryan who was staring right at you.
"What?" You asked, confused, scared that there was ghost behind you.
"Nothing you're just soo beautiful!" He said, looking at you, you reminded him of a gorgeous renaissance painting with a look of the shining 70s.
You heart skipped a beat and raced after your breath, no matter how many times he complimented you it felt same as the first time.
"Thank you! You're beautiful too!" You said, your eyes glistening as you stared into his emerald eyes.
"I'm so glad I have you!" You said softly, smiling, scooting even
"I'm so glad I have you too!" He said, gently putting his hands on your cheeks.
Your face heated at his touch.
You both pulled apart, you closed your eyes, your lips met his soft as marshmallow lips in a soft affectionate kiss, the feeling that felt like a warm bonfire on a long autumn's night went through both.
You both pulled away from the kiss, your hand subconsciously went in his hair messing with it.
"Happy Halloween my love!" Ryan said, kissing your forehead.
"Happy Halloween Ryan!" You said, smiling.
Author's note: Hiii guys!! Happy Halloween!! I hope you guys like this fanfic!! Also I think this is the first Ryan Hudson fanfic!! 😱😱 :))) 💜💜💜

When I Hit The Floor (Wanda Maximoff x Reader)
Summary: Wanda catches you crying in your sleep. (1150 words)
Warnings: mentions of trauma (no specific trauma) and nightmares.
A/N: Vent fic :,) I wrote this on a camping trip since the wifi was down in Canada
You couldn't be happier, really. You have an amazing girlfriend who recently moved in, a good job that saves lives, and you finally came to terms with yourself and your past. But that didn’t mean your past didn't come back to bite you in the ass sometimes.
It didn't bother you, at least you didn't think it did. Sure what happened years ago went through your mind briefly once in a while but you could always distract yourself or crawl into Wanda's arms when things got rough. Overall, you could control it. But when it came to night, the dreams you had, you couldn't control those.
Often you find yourself waking up in the middle of the night with cold sweats and the terrible lingering feeling caused by the flashbacks your mind decided to play on repeat in your sleep. Each time you had one of those nightmares, your first priority was to not wake up Wanda no matter how hard it was to breathe. You made sure you were careful, the easiest way was to pretend you were asleep until morning came. Often it was hours but you could spend the time calming down and trying to relax next to her.
The night affects your morning, you felt tired all through work and were more irritated. Wanda noticed it but didn't comment. After all, why would she get so worked up about that? You kept this all a secret from her and you intended to keep it that way forever. You wanted more than anything for her not to know. It was embarrassing how caught up you were in something that happened a long time ago and you felt like you couldn't talk about it. So you kept it to yourself until you couldn't.
After a tough day, you knew that your dreams would come back. They always found their way into your mind on bad days, much worse than normal. Knowing this information prior, you decided to sleep on the couch. It was late and Wanda wasn't home yet so you could just pass it off as ‘accidentally falling asleep.’ 
As you got ready to close your eyes, you got as comfortable in one of Wanda's hoodies and pulled out a sitcom DVD that sat next to the tv.  Anything that made you feel better you did because this night was going to be rough.
About a few hours after falling asleep, as you expected, a flurry of traumatic experiences came to play. It was like you were reliving them but aware of what would happen next. 
When you awoke, your eyes opened abruptly and you sat up. The hoodie stuck to your body with all the sweat you produced. Breaths came out fast as tears started prickling up in your eyes. You expected nothing but silence and to be alone but then you saw Wanda on her knees next to you and then felt her hand on your back, rubbing circles against you.
“It’s okay, deep breaths. That’s it, in and out,” Wanda said, trying to get you to calm down. She continued to rub your back until you could breathe at a steady pace. You stared at your feet in front of you, trying to avoid Wanda’s gaze.
She's the first one to break the silence after a few seconds. Your fear coming true. “You were crying in your sleep, love.” You hated how concerned she sounded. You don't know whether it makes you want to run away or be held.
Her hand comes to rub the tears away from your cheeks. Why were you still crying? You didn't even notice you started.
“Bad dream?” She asked. All you could do was nod, making it seem like just a silly nightmare. “I noticed that's been happening a lot since I moved in.”
“Yeah,” you mumble. You cursed yourself for not being careful enough. Did Wanda always know? Why didn't she do anything? You let your head race with more thoughts until she grabbed your hand. 
Was she reading your mind?
“I didn't want to pry at first but when it kept happening I had to take a look.” She pauses, trying to find the right words. Her facial expression almost matched your own with how sad she is. “Did that really happen?” She asked, wishing it was all just made up. She wanted your nightmares to be fake, the thought of you going through all of that; The thought of you being scared or not feeling safe hurt her deeply.
You weren't mad that she read your mind, you would have done the same if she was in your position. But you were embarrassed and ashamed. You told her everything, but not this, never this.
“It happened,” you admit. “But it was years ago, and really it's fine now I promise.”  Wanda frowned and even though you were the one going through it, you couldn't help but want to hug her and tell her there's nothing to worry about. 
“It's not fine if it keeps affecting you. I know you always deflect me about these sorts of things but let me take care of you... Please? I want to be there for you.”
You feel yourself starting to cry at her words. She wanted to take care of you, that's all you ever wanted. You were finally getting what you wanted but why were you crying?
“It’s exhausting…'' you say through deep breaths. “Doing this on my own for so long.” 
“I know, baby,” she affirms then gets off her knees to stand up. “I know you don't feel like sleeping but why don't we go to bed? It’s much more comfortable than the couch.”
You agree and stand up, your knees a little wobbly but she catches you. Both of you cling to each other as you walk into the bedroom. Still, your tears were falling but the sensation of Wanda holding onto you made everything a little bit better.
She hushed you and left light kisses all across your body as you sobbed into her chest. “Shh, baby. you didn't deserve the bad things that happened to you. You never deserved that,” Wanda cooed. You almost feel lighter after hearing those words. The reassurance that it wasn't your fault, that you didnt deserve it made you feel better even though you didnt believe it yourself.
Soon the combination of lack of sleep and crying tired you to the core. Even though you didn't want to fall asleep, you felt your eyes closing and your arms relaxing against Wanda's body.
“Im not letting you go, you can fall asleep,” she whispered, her lips brushing at the top of your head. With that, you let yourself finally fall asleep without the fear of a nightmare. And if a nightmare did occur, Wanda would be there and you’d get through it, Together.
“Sweet dreams, love.” And for once you did.

New College of Florida was a safe haven for me as a transgender student. I spent 19 years growing up in the conservative Midwest, constantly being reminded of how my differences made me less than others. My high school teachers would start class discussions about the legitimacy of transgender lives and bodies, almost always met by the students around me with disrespect for queer people. My doctor had come to my doorstep, my own home, telling me that I was wrong and sinful for trying to seek out gender-affirming care through him, which would be the catalyst for my suicide attempt at 16 years old. In the year of my high school German teacher's retirement, he targeted my trans peers by giving them letters explaining why they were Godless for their decision to transition, with each letter including candy and a DVD about religion. I knew two trans kids in school who would end up killing themselves from bullying. Throughout all of these injustices I've experienced, no one has faced repercussions.
When I finally graduated high school, I was excited about the possibility of leaving the state for somewhere more accepting. I found a sense of actual community at New College of Florida, where I was looked at and treated as an equal despite my gender identity. New College is known for its openly queer and outspoken student body, and after years of having no friends, New College is the place where I finally developed a friend group that I felt understood me.
Just as soon as I had found some semblance of community, it was ripped from me. Towards the tail end of my first year, the governor of Florida had begun to specifically target New College in hopes of changing the culture of the student body, both scared of Florida's honors college being associated with leftist ideas and wanting a college takeover as a chip to gamble in the upcoming presidential election. Ron Desantis has passed multiple anti-LGBTQ laws in Florida, has banned gender studies and critical race theory, and has openly made it clear that we -- queer students -- are no longer welcome on campus. From tossing dozens of books out of our campus library to painting over student-made murals, Desantis' team as our new administration is actively trying to push out queer students from New College.
New College offered both queer and non-queer students an alternative and accepting education that is hard to find anywhere else. Even with offers being made to help New College students such as the Hampshire tuition match program, many students can not afford to leave Florida, especially without the amazing scholarships, financial aid, and other general opportunities that New College has provided its students in the past. These types of anti-LGBTQ laws aren't just happening in Florida. Without active resistance to conservative education reform, there will be fewer and fewer spaces for transgender students to feel welcome and safe.

Marshall's lil sister
Warning
Im not good at writing spice or smut...so...yea, it's going to be very bad. Im sorry
!¡Spoilers for The Lost Boys¡! (Kinda...)
  Information: You are Haley's little sister. You two got Separated in your early teens. She was 2 years older than you. Now your 23, looking beautiful as ever and also looking for your sister. You heard that haley was somewhere in New Orleans. You packed your things and drove to New Orleans. It was beautiful.
You were able to find someone that knew were she was. The Mikaelons. You heard a lot about them. Especially the hybrid, named Klaus Mikaelon. Anyone was scary of him, but he didn't scare me.
I drove up to the beautiful Mansion that the Mikaelons lived in. I took a Very deep breath and opened my door. "Lets go see if my sister is here" I walked up to the door. I knocked on the door three times.
A beautiful blonde girl answered the door. "Hi, is Haley Marshall here?" I asked. "Why are you asking?" Oh... She's British. Nice. "She's my sister and I haven't seen her in over a decade" I looked down, feeling a little emotional. "Haley love, your sister is here" the beautiful blonde called I to the big house. "Please come inside, love" she smiled, moving out the way. "Thank you" I smiled, walking in. "Wow, this is beautiful" I looked around me as I walked in. "I know, its amazing" she hummed. "Come sit down" she led me to the living room.
"Hello there" A brown haired man said. He was sitting on a white couch with a book in his right hand. "Hello, you must be.... Elijah?" I asked sitting down on a white couch, A cross from him. "Yes, im Elijah Mikaelon. Who are you?" "Im Yn Marshall, younger and the only sister of Haley Marshall" I smiled. "Im Rebekah Mikaelon" Rebekah sat next to me. "I love your hair" I said to her, "thanks"
"Yn!?" I turned my head to see who I've been looking for. "Haley!" I stood up and ran to her. "I can't believe I found you" I hugged her tightly, "I can't believe it's you" she hugged back.
"Who is this?" A tall dirty blonde man walked in the room. "Klaus, this is my sister, Yn. Yn this is-" "the big bad hybrid" I smirked. His face turned very serious, in less than a second. I was being pushed up against by Klaus. His hands on my throat, I could still breathe, but it was a little hard to do so. "Put her down!" Rebekah stood up from her seat quickly. "Dont you never call me that again." He said with his thick british accent. "Cute" I laughed. What that, his hands got tighter. "Niklaus! Get your hands off the poor women" Elijah stood up and vamp ran next to him. He pulled him off of me and looked my neck. "Are you ok? Do you need anything?" He asked glancing at Klaus. "Im fine" I smiled at Elijah, who smiled back.
"Lets go to my room" Haley grabbed me and I followed her to her room.
We walked up the long, dark brown stairs into A short hallway. The hallway was a light tan color, with dark brown on the side.
"Here it is" Haley smiled as opened the door. The room was beautiful, and a bit messy, but beautiful. "Wow" I smiled as I sat on her bed. "It looks really cute" I smiled again, "but not really your aesthetic" I looked at her. "I know, I've been here for a two months. I'll be getting some things for my room" she sat next to me. "How have you been?" "Looking for you and our pack. And luckily, I found both" I looked at her. "Really?" "Yea, but let's not get sad here. How about we watch a movie?" "Sure" "The Lost Boys?" "Hell yeah!" She yelled grabbed a DVD of The Lost boys. "I haven't watched it in forever" I smiled as I put it in the tv. "Me nether" Haley smiled. "We should got some sneaks" "yeah" we got up.
Me and her both ran down stairs like when we were little pups. Me and her raced to the kitchen. I beat her, just like when we were pups. "What do you want?" Haley asked, "m&Ms, peanut m&Ms, nerds, gummies or cotton candy?" She finished her question. "How about like?" I smirked, "just like when we were pups" she smiled. She put all the things in a bag, so it would be easier to carry upstairs. I made two bags of popcorn, me and her both love popcorn. A lot...
After we made our popcorn, Rebekah wanted to join. I said yes, cause she seemed cool. I grabbed another bag of popcorn and made it for her.
"So, how does.... This work?" "Well, we just watch movies, do each other hair, talk about boys and other stuff" I smiled. Rebekah smiled as we walked up the stairs. "This is going to be fun!" I yelled as i walked in.
I jumped on the bed and placed the popcorn down. I jumped off the bed and sat in a chair, that I moved in front of the bed. Rebekah and Haley sat on the bed behind me. "Yn, could you press play?" Haley asked, "sure!" I jumped up and pressed play before sitting back down. "What are we watching?" Rebekah asked, "The Lost Boys" I turned to her with a smile. "What's that?" "Its a vampire movie" I said. "oh, so this is a vampire movie?" "Yep! Me and Haley watched it when we weren't suppose to" I laughed. "Well that, let's get started" Haley started to do my hair. "Rebekah, do you want me to do your hair?" I asked, "sure" she moved down and sat in front of me. As Haley did my hair, I did Rebekah's.
We were now at the part where Michael, Star, Laddie and the Lost Boys are at their cave.
"So Rebekah, do you have a crush on anyone?" I said finishing up her hair, "In the movie" Haley added. " "I think, Dwayne, he's cute" she said looking at the scene. How about you Haley? Still like Paul?" I wiggled my eyebrows, even though she couldn't see them. "I bet you still like Marko and Sam" she fired back at me. "What!? Their cute" I told her. We laughed at the stupid little argument we had.
Skip Time~~~
Third person
Half way through the movie, the girls fell asleep. Haley was laying on her stomach on her bed, facing the tv. Yn on the chair with her feet on another. Rebekah was next to Haley, laying on her stomach too. The girls were fast a fall, until Yn woke up.
Yn's POV
I woke up to the ending of the movie. With the frog brothers, Sam and Michael setting up the house for the attack.
I stood after a minute of adjusting to my eyes. I turned to see Rebekah and Haley sleeping on her bed. I quietly walked and opened the door. I turned and closed the door quickly and quietly. After closing the door, I turned back to see Klaus. "Hello luv" "hello Mr. Mikaelon" I started to walk to the stairs. "Mr. Mikaelon?" Klaus followed me to the kitchen. "What do you want Klaus?" I turned to look at him. He got inches away from me and leaned down "You..." He said in a low voice, my Spine Shivered.
"What?" I looked up at him, he smirked and kissed me. I surprisingly kissed back, I kinda liked it. He was a great kisser. He hands grabbed my waist, pulling me closer to him. Then I felt cold air. I opened my eyes to see, we were in a different room.
Klaus placed me on the bed and started to move to my neck. Bitting and sucking on in. "Klaus..." I moaned, I felt he lips smirk in to my neck. "Yes luv?" "You're... You're an... Vamp-" "it's fine. I wouldn't bit to hard" he said, moving to my collar bone. "Klaus. What... What about your siblings?" I couldn't help but moan. "It'll be fine" he said as I ripped my shirt in two. "Hey! That was one of my favorite tops" I yelled at him. "I'll get you another" he said making his way to my breasts. "Klaus-" "shut. Up." He said, and so I did. He then ripped off my dark purple laced bra. "Cute" he Whispered in my ear as he took off my Jean shorts. "On your knees" he said. I quickly got on my knees and looked up at him.
I have had sex, but never with a vampire. I've only had have sex with other wolves and humans. Never a vampire. Oh boy, was this going to be fun.
Klaus smirked again as he unbuttoned and unzipped his jeans. I could see the bugle in his dark blue boxers. I swallowed, scared of how big it would be. "Go on luv..." He said. I pulled down his boxers to his feet, following where the boxers when. "Look at me Luv" he said, I looked up slowly.
   God! It was big. I got wet, as soon as I saw it. I grabbed it with both of my hands, licking the tip. I gulped before bringing it to my mouth. I slowly put his dick into my mouth. I started to bob my head, taking his giant dick into my little mouth. I went slow, getting used to his size. It hitting the back of my throat as I did. He goans filled the air as I continued to bob my head. He grabbed a fist full of my hair, pulling on it lightly, as I bobbed my head. "Yn.... You...you're do...doing great" he moaned. I got wet hearing him said my name. I moan as it hit the back of my throat, again and again. 
  All of a sudden, I was on the bed. "Be a good girl and dont make a sound" he whispered in my ear. I got EVEN wetter feeling his hot breath in my ear. "I love your panties, but just like your bra, I'll going to get rid of them" he winked. In one moment, cold air replaced where your panties were. "Wet already? And you dont even know me" he smirked. He lowered himself in between my thighs. "So wet" he said before kissing my inner right thigh. "So. Wet." He said as he got closer to my core. He placed his warm tongue in my wet pussy. I bit my bottom lip, holding back moans. I slammed my eyes shut, as he pushed his tongue in and out my body. I bit my lip so hard, I think it started to bleed.
  Then, again, in a second, I was on top of Klaus. "Ride me, Luv. Ride me now!" I moves to his dick and slowly shoved it into me. "Ahhhh" I moaned at how big it was. "Ahh" I moaned again, forgetting what Klaus told me. When I was all inside me, I started to bounce. "Ahh, Klaus..." I moaned again, "yes Luv?" Klaus moaned back. "God..." I moaned, not sure what to say. "Why... Why are you... So... So big?" Was the only thing I could think of. "Because I am" he smirked, grabbing my hips. "AhHhHhHhHh" I bit my lip down after that one. It was loud, I think I wake up someone. I didn't know if I really did tho. He moved my hips, helping me bounce on him faster then before. 
  "Klaus, im gonn....gonna... Cum" I moaned VERY loudly. "Go on luv, Cum on me" he smiled. I moaned VERY VERY VERY LOUDLY that I think Japan heard me. I released on his dick, as he released inside me me. I fall behind him, breathing heavy. "That... Was.... Amazing" I looked at him, "I bet it was" he winked. He pulled me closer to him and grabbed the covers. Placing them on top of both of us. 
I hope you enjoyed??? IDK what to put

Produce 101 Japan The Girls ep 3 - thoughts i wrote on real time while watching
as a harowota who initially is watching it cuz of Kasahara Momona
DISCLAIMER: this is long af so UNDER THE CUT!
part 1 Re-evaluation:
Happy:
Kotone moved up to B!!! Deserved!!!! QUEEN of evolution!!!!
RAN (ran) TO A!!!!! love to see that
Joa was nice to see on A after the bootcamp from ep 2
KOTO TO A!!!! amazing (tho i like Yui more) her video was so appeleang
Sad:
Rio going from C to F was a bit sad for me smh
Ranka flopped a lot (B to F) but i didn't like her that much (also her re-evaluation video was hard to see)
Serina from C to D kinda urghhh same with Rimika (she was on HKT48 after all) but actually i was expecting these 2 to D
Keiko and the twins going down was sadly expected BUT MY AYANE!?!? ME SO SO SAD (but got B with keiko and the nakamoris, could be worse, and i didn't want it worse)
Okay, i get Ayane i'd say the same thing knowing my own abbilities, if i was her i would have been relieved to get down a class as well
part 2 shooting:
Mena's expressions are nice
Miu's
Ran's (so eye catching to me)
Miu, Ran and Kassa my choices (Kassa pls) (as if i didn't know Kassa wasn't)
OHHH Suzu and Tsuzumi solos!!! (wanted them to get something) Ran and Miu finalist for center, nice nice (f Kassa) (center was Miu, right?)
yes Miu center INTP center queen (?) (yes i support her cuz INTP first)
the prep all cute
Momoka's "kawachii" cute cuz husky
part 3 battle:
already excited cuz battle (is what i like from some dvd mags)

so after this was the first ranking?
OHHHH first elimination?
HALF?!?!?!?!
OMFG HALF OF THEM!!!
Top 50 stays, okay okay
Kaela changing the mood abruptly tho it felt so smooth
Kaela is trolling everyone
representatives by luck… HINAFES FEELINGS
ohhh Miu is unpickable
Ran rep. let's gooooo (wait this is for the groups performing later, realized this when ran picked Momoka)
Ran picks: Ranka ooooo A-F support!, KASSA!!!! LET'S FUCKING GOOO, KEIKO!!!, MOMOKA!!! YEI YEI YEI!!! Nonoka ohhhh (cuteness support logic, i see)
Meika pics: Ayaka, F class support; Shizuku i love her voice, Tsuzumi let's gooooo, Sakura ok i c i c (Kassa and "Gyaru ga kita" lol) and Suzu (balance on cuteness)
Yui rep OWO: Tsukushi, Nano, Nagomi bby!!!!, Moe, Joa (Koto felt betrayed?)
I'll stop with the picks
i like Fuka being rep
Miu can change anything?
Kassa didn't want Miu to pick anyone from her group, Kassa protecting mode
I like Miu liking Hazuki low tones; SHE STOLE SUZU!!! stealing Nano, and kokoro, LOL TSUZUMI SCREAMING
wait, why are the other stealing members? this got so confusing, but Ran's got no changes, nice
death battle for the song OWO
ohhhh runing
guru guru!!!
YABAI!
fights for songs on the floor nice!!! (me a bit violent)
teams w/o song must figth the ones with? HOW?!
oh, the ones w songs battle the ones without, i see; but if someone wants it can rise hand, i see
Kassa when Ran gave the appeal! Nice, i like that Kassa i see i see, interesting
part 4 choosing positions and rehearsals:
Miyu leader cuz experience, good
Kotone leader cuz older, my common idea, age or experience
Rimika must be so frustrated…
Kassa's idea to pick center was "nice idea" for me, but i got her same conclusion, they all should be center, everyone voted for Kassa to center… well i'm having a kassa on aisare route thought lapsus
it was between suzu and nano that center, sorry miu, you were boring, but you're not dissapointed, that's good
Miu helping the other team, awww (i'd do the same, it reminds me something i was told at uni, "it's a race to be better than the other, but you must teamwork and help each other anyways", i got reminded of it w Miu's action)
part 5 battle on stage time!:
lol someone w kalea's banner lol
i can't w nakasone, she's so funny
okay how you like that groups, already saw the performances tho…
Black Cats:
I have more liking here cuz Nagomi bby and Yui
they seem to have a hard time on rehearsals, specially leader/center Moe….
it's true that Nagomi fit's it the least, she's bby, but she can learn bout this…
they all want Moe as center, she just need more support, oh leader changed to Yui
awww Yui hugging Nagomi, everyone supporting her, i love it, she's so bby
bby improved while starting to enjoy, nice nice.
clapclapclap to Moe

Joa voice, i like it for rap, cool
fuuuuu yui & nagomi gooooo
Show Up:
Mihaya has troubles to connect names to faces? me too sometimes girl
This team had it hard…
hard works made better team work? apparently
i feel like Mihaya came out of a cocoon or chrysalis as a butterfly after getting this union and team work
Hana is giving me an impression mainly and the one who is rap 1 i think?
Black cats might have the win here…
yui 41 konomi 6
nagomi 37? bby nooo chiharu 55 (tho makes sense i think?)

🏎️💨 THE FORMULA 1 TAG GAME! 🏎️💨: tagged by @avida-heidia-5, thank you!!
(this has been in my drafts since January and I had completely forgotten to post it, so I'm going to fix that immediately. I am so sorry this took forever!)
1. Who or what got you into F1?
My Dad. The best memories I have of my Dad are watching F1 races together when I was growing up. idk how long he'd been an F1 fan by the time I was born, but I still have a very old Ferrari hat of his.
2. Who was the very first F1 driver you supported? Do you support them now? Have your opinions on them differed or stayed the same since then?
As a kid Michael because of my Dad (according to my Gran when I really really little I used to run around going "vroom vroom Schumacher!"). When I got back into watching F1 in 2013 I supported Jenson and Seb, and I still do! They're very much my beloveds.
3. Who’s your current favourite F1 driver?
Lewis!
4. Is there a driver pairing or pairings you support? What made you attracted to that pairing in the first place?
the dream teams of Seb, Britta and Antti & Lewis and Bono. I am a sucker for colleagues turned besties.
And as for teammates, Lewis and Jenson are my favourites. I frequently go onto YouTube and look up old McLaren promo videos because they're just hilarious in the best way (also shoutout to Series 1 of Tooned, I still have it on DVD!).
5. Do your parents, siblings or relatives have a favourite team and/or favourite driver(s)?
Nope, I'm the only F1 fan in my family. My parents (Mum and Step-Dad) have the odd opinion on some drivers but as a whole they're very unbothered 😅
6. Do you have any favourite races? Are there any that stand out to you the most?
I have so many for various different reasons. Silverstone 2014 & 2018 because I was there. India 2013 and Singapore 2019 for Seb reasons, Hungary 2019 and Turkey 2020 for Lewis reasons. Hungary 2021 for the whole of lap 1 and also for Seb reasons. Bahrain 2014 also sticks out because it was such a good race long battle between Nico and Lewis.
7. Do you have a favourite circuit? Can be from the past or from the current calendar.
Silverstone and Marina Bay (Singapore)
8. Have you ever been to an F1 race in real life? Feel free to tell us your experience going to one if you like.
As mentioned above I have been ridiculously lucky to go to the British GP twice in 2014 and 2018. The first time my parents organised it and the second time was via coach trip (which honestly I would recommend, it took out a lot of the stress in terms of getting to the track).
Obviously it's been a while but both years were absolutely amazing. Silverstone is a brilliant circuit both in terms of spectator facilities and seating options (idk if they still have it, but for our weekend tickets we had roving grandstand seats for the Saturday which meant we could sit in different parts of the track for FP3 and Quali - Luffield and Village are great spots!).
The atmosphere at the track is also just incredible, even during a practice session. They also open the Porsche experience centre and have cars on display (including cars that have won Le Mans!!)
I did post some pictures at the time from both trips under the Silverstone 2014 and Silverstone 2018 tags and I'm happy to post more if people want!
9. Have you ever met an F1 driver in real life?
I have not but I know someone who has 😅
10. Do you have a favourite F1 car? If so, what is it?
I have a colossal soft spot for the Brawn GP BGP001, she will always be famous 🤍💛
11. Do you have a favourite one win wonder?
Esteban Ocon purely for everything that was Hungary 2021.
12. Do you have any favourite quotes from the F1 world? This can either be inspirational or hilarious.
Lewis' post-race radio from Turkey 2020 and a (very) long list of Seb quotes

I only just found out about "Wonderful World of Racing" from your blog and I can't find anything about it anywhere else on the internet. If I may ask, what is it and where can one find it?
Wonderful World of Racing The Amazing Racer Family is a short film (about 30 minutes) that was released as a companion to the movie.
The first half is fake documentary or "mockementary" about the Racers. All the actors are in costume and give interviews in character. The second half is a deep dive into the behind the scenes of Speed Racer. Actors and producers talk about what went in to making the film.
I found out about the movie a few years ago. And bought a DVD copy online. It's also on YouTube. Here's a link.

Me, sitting at the desk, suit and tie, glasses on: Ladies and gentlemen, today I regret to inform you that I have been overanalizing something that doesn’t needs to be analized to begin with, I completely lost about 3 hours of my life rewatching the same footage over and over, in very bad quality as well, so I could bring you content, not high quality content, quality is sold separatedly as DLC, just content. And that is: The brilliance of the only good parts of Cars 2, The race scenes.
So you better click out of this post right now else you’ll be reading the ramblings of a madman, don’t say I didn’t warned you.
Also, the less quality screenshots belong to the few footage of the Cars 2 DVD, that includes the deleted scenes of the movie.
Tumblr media
First of all, the mockup SPEED Network titles and presentation, which resembles the official intro sequence of all FIA championship races, also the fact that they are using 3 official motorsport commentators.
Tumblr media
They kept the logo on as the camera goes around as if this was the live feed from any race day. Normally this type of thing is done on the grid as these are the moments that preface the formation lap on any discipline, but I can see why they kept it inside the pits, else the pre-race chatter and the warmup wouldn’t be noticeable, also to cut production time, as pre-formation lap preparations tend to look like this
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A bunch of equipment, umbrellas, engineers, media and overall clutter all behind the SC, considering that in Cars everyone is a car (duh, is in the name), this wouldn’ve been hell to fit in without making a random ass huge main straight, or making everyone be so awkwardly positioned on the grid.
Then we get the cars themselves
Tumblr media
Francesco, obviously being a Formula 1 car, according to my guess (Source: trust me bro) being a hybrid between the F2004 and the F248 (2006 season), his swaying on the heating is minimal, slow reduced speed and pace on the out so the engine, electronics and brakes won’t overheat.
Tumblr media
The GT cars (I actually have no idea who that is supposed to be), strong swaying and quick revving to keep the engine on the mark, as those cars, although specially fitted for racing, are still commercially available cars that you can buy, so keeping perfect temperatures and being “on the zone” at all times is not their main purpose unlike the LMP1, 2 and Formula cars
Tumblr media
Next we have “Raoul ÇaRoule“, or, as I like to call him, offbrand Sebastien Loeb, because that’s totally who he is supposed to be, the french flag and the “rally champion” title give it off, considering he is still the one with the most titles in the WRC, which in the Cars universe is called the GRC but for just a name usage and some vague likeness, it just wasn’t worth the money, which is honestly an understandable choice; notice how his swaying is the most pronounced, and his rev periods are longer than anyone else’s, and that’s on point with rally cars, they are high torque high accleeration cars with a very open differential and a loose steering to allow for easy corrections and compensation without overdoing it, as they usually race on ice, dirt and other slippery surfaces that would make precise track-like steering a one way ticket into a tree.
Tumblr media
A deleted shot, see the ammount of detail on that Vanquish GT.
Tumblr media
Yes, that’s motherfucking Lewis Hamilton, portrayed as none other than a McLaren, as that’s the team he was racing for in 2011.
Tumblr media
They even included a DMT/WTC car! And it seems to be a Mercedes CLK.
Tumblr media
This shot is just beautiful, I’ll allow my suspension of disbelief to simply take the wheel here as those boxes are too close together and right next to each other, but who cares, the painted-over asphalt like the one in street circuits, the small “belly” at the bottom that McQueen’s tires get as his car-type is on the quite heavy side, the stiffness of Francesco’s tires with the toe in camber at the front wheels, the different tide width for each car, this show is just amazing.
Tumblr media
A small shot that we get from McQueen’s POV, you can see the heat thing where it becomes blurry, you can see the details on that (obviously not licensed) LMP1 car with all the details on it, the classic Aston Martin GT body 3 places ahead of McQueen is also a lovely sight to see, with the high wing as they tend to have on GT Competitions.
Tumblr media
The starting sequence is a pale where I can see that they put a lot of work and detail on, the rally car and the TOCA cars simply taking off as soon as the lights get green while the GT cars like the Corvette and the Aston Martin taking a bit longer, moving off the grid slower
Tumblr media
But as soon as they move forward, they build speed insanely fast, also the huge detail of the Corvette’s bad start as he gets stuck on the first gear and can’t advance until a few seconds later, when he has the McLaren behind him already taking an overtaking line on the left. And don’t forget the AM’s diffusor almost touching the ground.
Tumblr media
Another great shot, you can see all of their eyes looking to the left, where the distance to corner indicators are on, everybody looking for their insividual braking point, cars with slower speed but higher acceleration stay on the middle while high aero cars try to go for the inside like the LMP1 as it can brake faster than any other, or Francesco going for the outside so he can do the corner while braking the less, relying entirely on his aero.
Tumblr media
Although out of focus, time to appreciate the detail of the back of Francesco, that’s some high detail modelling right there, you can see most of the components and how most of the car is actually empty underneath, you can even see how the suspension moves up and down as he goes thru the track, if I were to be picky the only thing he is missing is the recovery light at the bottom.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A million different lines all based on the specific car taking the turn, TOCA cars going for the inside at all cost so they can accelerate quicker, GT cars preferring a more open line to use the entire width of the track to be less aggressive on the tires as they weight a hell of a lot more.
Now the boxes are also a delight to see
Tumblr media
“Gorvette” the GT Corvette gets an F150 (another Ford manufactured car) as its engineer.
Tumblr media
A french car, the Citroën DS for the french offbrand Loeb.
Tumblr media
A japanese car for the Japanese LMP1 car.
Tumblr media
Francesco gets a 250GT Convertible, of course it is another Ferrari, lol
And you can see it on the back of the shot, the Spaniard racer gets a SEAT (possibly a SEAT Leon) as his engineer.
Tumblr media
First of all, great lighting and great detail on the track; second, everyone but the rally car is racing on the wrong line, trying to take the path that is the straightest and with the least elevation changes, yet the rally one is the only one that takes the right one, the side with the most camber to help reduce the speed coming into the corner without having to touch too much of the brakes, an enviromental lift and coast if you must, and at the same time it takes advantage of his higher suspension rebound as he has less of a cahnce of bottoming out, unlike literally all the other cars.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
OMG Is this Dirt 6?
That’s a pretty good shot right there, a classic “Left 4 DC Tightens, Right 4 Cut Opens”
Tumblr media
Those red brakes, THOSE RED BRAKES, Beautiful.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Again, suspension of disbelief taking the wheel because that shot was amazing, but McQueen got the plot armor, do that big of a jump and see how you faceplant the dirt and roll over.
But at the same time, great how the other car is doing it the way it should be done, and even in the next shot you see how it has gained on McQueen by doing that.
Tumblr media
The dirt on his body. The sense of speed of the scene. The way the sound echoes. I know this is “average japanese tunnel” but this whole sequence gives me “Monaco Tunnel section” vibes. If only this movie was as great as these shots
Tumblr media
Another great backshot, nothing else to say.
Tumblr media
Another deleted shot, this is what I meant by Monaco vibes, seeing his wheel so close to the wall and have the sound reflect that by echoing even louder is just great.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Absolute classic TV coverage angle, simply great.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Turn 13 Singapore my beloved, the section is longer than it is IRL and for obvious licensing issues it doesn’t has the metal arch that oversees the straight between 11 and 12, but it even has the small kink right that is turn 12 into the hairpin of Turn 13 just like in the real track
Tumblr media
Even on a movie, Lewis is an asshole, brake-switching lanes and not allowing anyone to race on his side of the track, very IC representation of him (and this was in 2011 mind you, even before we saw more his.. interesting... interpretation of the F1 rules, was this some next level foreshadowing?)
Tumblr media
Singapore Sling my beloved, I miss you (actually I don’t, I hope you never come back).
Notice how McQueen doesn’t even blinks until he is out of the section, and how every driver that comes moves their eyes from apex to apex
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
More Sling pics with moving eyes, I love it, also, look at the tyre marks, so beautiful, also that Vanquish nose, so beautiful x2, and lets not forget Loeb in the back doing the most open turns known to man (car?) so he doesn’t has to press the brakes and can just high-rev the entire section like in RXC.
Tumblr media
Look at the muddy teardrop, look at the exhaust gas, look at the everything. I’ll never have enough of these low angle sideshots in any Cars movie. Also, mandatory Wangan mention.
Tumblr media
You guys really pushing the suspension of disbelief here lol, no way in hell that a NASCAR (insert laugh emoji) car is able to hold back and gain from two prototype racers and and F1 car. Although Francesco is really pushing forward in that shot, but still.
But.
I don’t care, still a great shot, nice to see how much depth and detail is actually there.
Tumblr media
He readies it and...
Tumblr media
Amazing, as it should be, right on the tail, getting all the reduced drag possible before pushing out into clean air and passing the car like its standing.
Tumblr media
Forget what I said earlier, no I am not going all the way up to correct it, if you made it all the way down here you can just pretend that I did, he has the recovery light, and is so pretty, the wing is so on spot, everything really, look at the dirst from earlier, how it splashes back, look at the closeness to the ground, everything is there, absolutely everything.
It’s such a shame that we really only have 1 full race, and the racen is constantly being cut out by some decaf 007 bs that nobody actually cared about; the whole plot of “multinational racing event that is just a big conspiration” was great as it was, because the sport has had lots and lots of those, just the name “Briatore” should be enough to make like 3 movies out of that, and that’s leaving out the lesser known but equally interesting scandals like Multi 21, and the sport defining moments like Jules’ incident (RIP), both the FIA and the FIM have enough drama by themselves to make a movie with this plot interesting enough with just that, racing, cars doing car things like the first movie (Even tho the first one is based off the year-round april’s fools joke known as NASCAR), zero need for Mater to be turnt into a James Bond LARPer

I didn't bother with word counts lol but for the DVD commentary
this bit from Lethal Measures:
"The slab flops over backwards, April releasing it as gravity takes hold, and underneath it is a Krang-
there are tentacles in his arms in his legs under his skin under his shell there is power in the ship there is knowledge in the database and there is the understanding that he is not himself and if he cannot keep himself together in the mind of this ship then he will be lost gone subsumed but he is torn away from the knowledge the power the ship but the tentacles are still in his body in his mind in his memories they never left he never left they are STILL THERE-
His mind snaps back to reality to find his body has acted in his absence: put itself protectively between April and the Krang, activated his tech-bo and his ninpo ( he’d never devised a weapon that could hurt the Krang but that had not stopped him from trying, long overnight hours in medbay keeping vigil over Leo’s injured form trying to think of a way to handle them if they ever came back ) in the form of an oversized and jagged-edged glaive, and locked down defensively, awaiting motion from the invader intruder murderer Krang. April’s hands are clamped on his shoulders, and she’s nearly yelling, trying to get through- “I told you, I checked it, it’s DEAD -”
Which is when Donnie’s brain finally processes the data his eyes are providing beyond the initial panic instinct, and he realizes what he’s looking at is half a Krang. The left half, to be precise.
Oh .
He sags as adrenaline loosens its hold on his system, and April lets go. “You with me, Mister Cold-Blooded?”"
And this bit from Site 39:
"Evidently Siobhan has the same idea, as she hasn’t taken her seat again. “How was Tahiti?”
“It’s a magical place. Amazing mai tais. A little rocky at the end, when my flight got rerouted to Vermont and I had to rent a car and drive five hours in traffic to get here, but that’s not Tahiti’s fault.” Or Vermont’s, but given that both of New York’s major airports were currently closed, the airlines were doing their best, and at least she’d had the foresight to not fly Southwest. She rolls her shoulders, sharply cracks her neck, ignores the wince from Fadi at the sound, and taps the edge of one of Siobhan’s monitors. “What are we looking at here? I saw the public reactions, but what do we actually have? Catch me up.”
So they do.
And Margo stares . Squeezes her eyes shut. Rubs her temples. Opens her eyes again and stares some more. She’d thought seeing public accounts would prepare her for the full explanation. She had been wrong. Holy shit .
She sighs, still trying to wrap her head around everything. “So we had an alien invasion.”
“Yep.”
“That came and went in a single day.”
“Yep.”
“And now we have an alien in the basement.”"
AIGHT LET'S GO
I wrote the first chapter or so of Lethal Measures in a Brand New Hyperfixation Fugue State, so a good amount of the writing process for this can be described as Brain Go Brrr. That said:
The slab flops over backwards, April releasing it as gravity takes hold, and underneath it is a Krang-
there are tentacles in his arms in his legs under his skin under his shell there is power in the ship there is knowledge in the database and there is the understanding that he is not himself and if he cannot keep himself together in the mind of this ship then he will be lost gone subsumed but he is torn away from the knowledge the power the ship but the tentacles are still in his body in his mind in his memories they never left he never left they are STILL THERE-
I am inordinately fond of using run-on sentences and fragments to signify racing thoughts or a breakdown, because the lack of punctuation rolls everything together into a rambling mess, which is absolutely the point. Donnie is just a touch traumatized by the invasion, but don't worry, He's Fine.
His mind snaps back to reality to find his body has acted in his absence: put itself protectively between April and the Krang, activated his tech-bo and his ninpo ( he’d never devised a weapon that could hurt the Krang but that had not stopped him from trying, long overnight hours in medbay keeping vigil over Leo’s injured form trying to think of a way to handle them if they ever came back ) in the form of an oversized and jagged-edged glaive, and locked down defensively, awaiting motion from the invader intruder murderer Krang. April’s hands are clamped on his shoulders, and she’s nearly yelling, trying to get through- “I told you, I checked it, it’s DEAD -”
Bodies, especially well-trained ones, do some wild shit while on autopilot, and I enjoy playing with that, especially in prose. The one-two punch of the brain spinning in a breakdown while the body goes DAMMIT BRAIN I GUESS I'LL KEEP US ALIVE TODAY, followed by the brain picking the reins back up and only then taking stock of what the fuck happened when it stepped out back to have a brief scream into the void, is great to write. The reader gets to be just as surprised as the returning brain is!
I do tend to overuse parentheticals, but that's very much a style thing for me. I was taught that anything in parentheses could be removed without upsetting the coherence and the structure of the paragraph that contained them, and that is how I use them. It's fun flavor text and occasionally extremely rude on my end, just the way I like it. :D
(Also, had I been thinking, I would've specifically given Donnie a naginata, but fugue state meant I defaulted to glaive. Bitches love glaives. It's me; I'm bitches.)
Which is when Donnie’s brain finally processes the data his eyes are providing beyond the initial panic instinct, and he realizes what he’s looking at is half a Krang. The left half, to be precise.
Oh .
He sags as adrenaline loosens its hold on his system, and April lets go. “You with me, Mister Cold-Blooded?”
This is all just setup. Part of the payoff is a few paragraphs later, making a crack about the other half of the Krang; the rest is the upcoming repetition of Cold-Blooded as a descriptor. I intend to make it painful in chapter 3, whenever that rolls around.
Site 39 is my excuse to dabble in worldbuilding - enough to make the entire Turtle Torchwood series an AU in its own right - because part of my engagement with a canon is to poke at the holes, ask how things work, and make up my own answers that fit within existing parameters. I knew next to nothing about Bishop or the EPF when I started this, and now that I know more, I'm still planning on doing my own thing. I'm having way more fun with my little crew than I think I would with Bishop.
Evidently Siobhan has the same idea, as she hasn’t taken her seat again. “How was Tahiti?”
“It’s a magical place. Amazing mai tais. A little rocky at the end, when my flight got rerouted to Vermont and I had to rent a car and drive five hours in traffic to get here, but that’s not Tahiti’s fault.” Or Vermont’s, but given that both of New York’s major airports were currently closed, the airlines were doing their best, and at least she’d had the foresight to not fly Southwest. She rolls her shoulders, sharply cracks her neck, ignores the wince from Fadi at the sound, and taps the edge of one of Siobhan’s monitors. “What are we looking at here? I saw the public reactions, but what do we actually have? Catch me up.”
So they do.
Site 39 is also my excuse to shamelessly make references and inflict psychic damage on my audience, because I find it funny and also I can. To note for these, I watched a whole lot of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and I was one of the poor bastards caught in last December's Southwestpocalypse.
Also, there's always someone in a group that gets super unnerved when anyone else cracks their joints. Poor Fadi.
And Margo stares . Squeezes her eyes shut. Rubs her temples. Opens her eyes again and stares some more. She’d thought seeing public accounts would prepare her for the full explanation. She had been wrong. Holy shit .
She sighs, still trying to wrap her head around everything. “So we had an alien invasion.”
“Yep.”
“That came and went in a single day.”
“Yep.”
“And now we have an alien in the basement.”
You ever come back from vacation and find that everything has gone straight to hell in your absence? Margo is having that kind of day. For most people, that means paperwork; for Margo, that means dealing with the fact that her day job now has a dangerous predator under glass in the basement.
Also, there's a big difference between getting your information from a reliable source and getting it from Twitter scuttlebutt. Margo at least knows better than to trust everything the Twitter randos are saying.
The meme is here; ask me things!

A year late to the show, but I started watching Foundation (streaming on Apple TV+) and am about halfway through its first season.
It’s taking all my resolve not to stay up super late and finish it through. I have to stick to my sleep schedule and get up early in the morning though.
A few things:
DON’T SLEEP ON THIS SHOW! It’s a shame that it’s streaming on a service that most people probably won’t bother with. I hope it gets a DVD/BD release. Use the free 6 month Apple+ subscription when the 2nd season airs and binge both seasons.
If Lee Pace does it for you, you will be fed. His performance is (as always) excellent and the characters he portrays are a wonderful addition and exploration on what there was in the original novels.
The original books are massive in scope and so far the series is doing a great job of capturing the spirit of that while bringing something new in a way that makes sense for a TV adaption. Great balance of all the science/math details and cultural concepts of a galactic empire.
I love the novels, but they are a cishet male sausage fest. In the main trilogy—if memory serves—there are three female characters, of which two are named and only one of them speaks. At least the names of all the men are “futuristic” enough that one can imagine men of different races instead of just white men while reading it. (Of course “futuristic” has its own biases) The TV series tackles that splendidly with a cast that is diverse in both background scenes and main characters. I greatly appreciate that, and I’m totally here for the gender swap on Gaal Dornick and Salvor Hardin. If diverse casting is something you care about, then watch and give feedback and reviews.
Did I mention Lee Pace? Apple+ really wants us to see him with his shirt off. Give him love y’all. Seriously though I love how the story adds and explores the idea of a “genetic dynasty”. I have a love/hate with clone tropes, and this series explores something very dear to my heart about cloning. It’s not just a detail.
Demerzel. She’s amazing. So many feels and deep thoughts.
Great concepts explored with the different planets. In that respect, the genres dips into “planetary romance” which happens in space operas and they’ve balanced that well with good timing on flashbacks and parallel plots.
Great production value. They wrote some big checks for this and it’s shows. Very well.
Tumblr media
Look at Gaal, doing the Maths!
Tumblr media
Empire beckons.

I could totally imagine Tech being a secret racing fan while on Kamino. The speeder simulations are his favorite and he’s always in the top 10. Sometimes Nala Se lets them watch TV and he sees an old DVD from a while back that one of the older clones brought back home. Its titles *Pod Races of Tattooine* and Tech watches it constantly, much to the dismay of the others (”Am I the only one who’s missing his History of Mandalore Podcast?” - Wrecker). Tech completely hyperfixates on the perilous races and especially one kid who managed to win the Boonta Eve podrace of 32 BBY, Anakin Skywalker. It completely fascinates and confounds Tech why these people would put their lives in such danger for something other than a greater cause, but he nonetheless respects it. He drops the interest after a while and focuses on other studies but that interest still stays in the back of his mind. One day, Tech learns that Anakin Skywalker, The Hero Without Fear, is in the Clone Wars. He asks Hunter to go on a mission with him but poor Hunter has heard enough stories about this guy from the Clone Bar on Coruscant. One miraculous day, CF99 is called by the 212th to help them rescue a clone and of course they have to oblige, even though they don’t always like Cody’s rigid way of doing things. To Tech’s absolute AMAZEMENT, he sees Skywalker there, the pod-racing champion. Of course, he doesn’t say anything, because its a very serious mission and he doesn’t wanna act like a fanboy, but after they rescue Echo and everything he asks for just a quick moment to get his autograph. Anakin, awestruck that someone recognizes him as anything other than a Jedi is OC course DELIGHTED. So they part ways and Clone Force 99 do their things and Anakin and the 501st do theirs. After Order 66, Tech hears that Anakin and senator Amidala were both killed by the mysterious Sith Lord, Darth Vader. Tech wants to keep the autograph in memory of Anakin, but after seeing Echo cope so poorly with the loss of his general and friend, Tech gifts it to him, so that Anakin Skywalker, can always live on.

I hope you are feeling okay!
I have some soft thoughts that hopefully will make you feel better.
I think that max secretly loves to watch Disney movies. Especially old Disney movies.
He just loves to cuddle up with you on the couch and watch them with you.
It's his favourite thing to do with you.
But if anyone found out he would deny it to his grave.
Like for some reason he wants it to be a secret just between the two of ye.
-🌸
I... Anon this is so fucking cute oh my god? I love this so much? I hadn't even thought about this before but youre so right. And I'm feeling a little better today and definitely up for some writing, thanks for asking :))
Firstly, I think they would be Max's guilty pleasure long before the two of you even got together. He used to watch older Disney movies with his mother, and even without her, he would hide the DVDs from his dad and watch them late at night as comfort. Even now, as an adult, he still finds comfort in the older Disney movies and even enjoys quite a few of the newer ones as well.
He's always kept it a secret from previous partners, but maybe he gets the timing wrong one day and you walk in on him? You don't even blink at his choice in movie, just ask if you can join because he's watching on of your favourites.
If it were anyone else, max would have insisted that choosing that movie was a mistake and quickly close his laptop, denying the event ever happened. But you're smiling so sweetly and asking if you can join and you even offer to go fetch a blanket and well... cuddling and watching the movie sounds amazing.
So he agrees and you go to fetch a blanket. And just... it's so nice? He doesnt get made fun of like he feared, he just got to cuddle you and finish the movie.
When the movie finishes, you mention that you didnt know he enjoyed movies like that, and then he opens up to you about his secret love for them. Part of him still expects you to make fun of him, especially now that he's admitted he finds them comforting.
But instead you say that you're very happy he has a coping mechanism, and that you would love to join him again if he's okay with it.
It becomes his favourite thing to do with you, because it's just so safe and warm? He feels so peaceful then, cuddled up with you and watching old disney movies. It's the best way for him to wind down after a stressful race, and sometimes he'll even text you during the day, telling you that he wants to watch a movie with you when the day is done.
It's not something anyone else gets to know though, because he's still insecure about it, but also because he kinda loves having something just for the two of you? It feels so nice to know he has a way to calm down with you.
And of course you guys watch some of the newer ones as well, but you never go the cinemas for it. It's not something Max ever wants to do in public, it's for the safety and comfort of home and hotel rooms only.
