kissing lessons: 2

synopsis: ellie was your first kiss, but she moved away and you never spoke again. what happens when she moves back to town ten years later?

song: kissing lessons - lucy dacus

pairing: college!ellie x reader

warnings: mean moms, implied homophobia

a/n: uhm wow thank you so much for all the love the first part 🫶 yall are angels and i love u all! thinking this is a series!!!!!!

part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4

“damn. you grew up.”

you laughed, coming over and pulling ellie into a hug. “so did you, jesus.” you let go of her and joel pulled you into a hug of his own. “hi mr. miller.”

“jesus kid, how many times do i have to say not to call me that! its joel.”

the air was awkward as you pulled away from them both, memories of your childhood floating through your mind. “so, uhm, what are y’all doing back here? thought you wanted to be close to tommy?”

joel sighed and leaned on the cart he had been pushing. “yea, well, ellie wanted to go to school here.”

“they’ve got a great art program.” ellie interrupted. “didn’t think id get in, but i did on a scholarship, so we decided to come back.”

you smiled at her. “wow that’s amazing, you’ll have to show me your stuff some time!”

“absolutely, shes amazing.” joel said, throwing an arm around her shoulder. “what about you, are you still in school?”

you sighed and switched your basket to the other hand. “unfortunately, last year though!” you smiled.

“thats the spirit.” joel pat you on the shoulder. “we better get going, but it’s good to see you angel. hope we get to see more of you.” he turned back to the cart, looking at the list as he headed down the cereal aisle.

ellie cleared her throat before speaking again. “hey, can i get your number? y’know so we can catch up?”

“yeah, of course!” she slipped her phone into your hands, watching as you added your number to a new contact. “it’s really good to see you.” you said as you put your free arm around her neck in a hug.

“yea it is.” her arm squeezed your middle for a moment before you both let go, heading opposite ways. “see you around angel.”

“what’s got you so smiley?” your mom wondered as she chopped vegetables beside you.

you set down the knife your were holding, turning around to lean on the counter. “you remember ellie? the girl i was, like, best friends with in elementary school?” she nodded, her eyes flashing between you and the onion. “saw her and mr. miller at the grocery store. i guess they’re moving back so ellie can go to school here.”

she hummed, no reaction on her face. “will you get the chicken out the fridge for me?” she looked up when you didn’t move, just staring at her. “what?”

“you tell me.”

she sighed and set down her knife, getting the chicken herself. “i just… i never liked that girl.” she closed the fridge door and cut open the chicken, putting it in a bowl with some seasoning. “mr. miller is very kind, and his sarah is a sweetie.” she clicked her tounge. “but ellie seemed to be a bad influence on you. something off about that girl.”

you knew exactly what she meant.

ellie was a trouble maker. back-talking teachers, and pranking neighbors. and she was never the girly-girl the moms wanted her to be. too tomboy-ish for their daughters.

too queer for them.

“whatever.” you left the kitchen, grabbing your keys and walking out the front door like you used to all those years ago. you heard your mom call out for you as you left, but you ignored her, getting in your car and pulling away.

ellie had texted you earlier to give you her number, claiming she was always free.

e: hey angel its ellie 3:48

a: hey. glad i saw you today. 3:52

a: when are you free? 3:52

e: always 3:54

a: u free now??? 5:36

e: yea come over 5:36

e: sent a pin 📍 5:37

ellie raced down the stairs as you knocked on the door, yelling at joel “i got it” before he could get up.

he laughed and turned back to the tv. she’d done that as a kid too, never more excited than when you came over. she composed herself before unlocking and opening the door, a shy smile on her face.

“hey, come in.” she stepped back, watching you come inside and slide off your shoes along side hers. she took your hand, a habit she never dropped, and led you upstairs to her room.

“hey angel!”

you smiled softly, peeking around a corner and seeing joel watching the news. “hi mr. miller.”

“it’s joel!”

ellie rolled her eyes, pulling at your arm. you scoffed, letting her guide you. “now, my room is just bones right now. im only here temporarily so…”

she wasn’t joking.

her bed frame sat against a wall not put together, all her stuff in boxes. a suitcase sat by the closet with clothes and essentials. her mattress tucked in a corner with sheets and a pillow. walls bare and books hidden.

“this is boring.” you teased as you flopped onto her mattress face first. when you looked over to ellie she was standing awkwardly at the door, hands at her sides and eyes on the floor. “what the hell are you doing?”

she shrugged, shuffling forward. “ ‘don’t know. feels weird.”

you laughed, staring at her incredulously. “you just yanked me up your stairs to your room, and now it’s weird?”

“you’re right.” she stood at the foot of the mattress before falling on top of you.

“jesus!”

ellie gasped and rolled off you. “do not say the lord’s name in vain missy! can you imagine what your mother would do if she heard?”

she felt the energy sour at the mention of your mom. “you okay?”

she watched as you sat up and followed suit, sitting criss cross in front of you. “i hate living with her. she finds a way to ruin everything.” you picked at the hole on your jeans, pulling at the white threads.

“let me guess,” ellie said, leaning onto her hands behind her. “not so happy to hear im back in town.” you looked at her with a guilty expression. “she never liked me. none of the moms did.”

“yea, well, theyre all idiots.” you huffed and picked at her jeans instead. “she just… any time im excited she has to find a way to ruin it. i just wanna move out.”

you were both silent for a minute. ellie watched as you picked and twisted the the strings on her pants, separating them just to pinch them back together. “move in with me.”

your head shot up to look at her.

Vettel To Drive Senna's McLaren MP4/8 In Tribute To Icon At the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Weekend

Sebastian Vettel will drive Ayrton Senna's McLaren MP4/8 at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix weekend, in a fitting tribute to the late F1 icon. The Brazilian triple world champion's life was tragically cut short by a fatal accident at Imola thirty years ago today, aged just 34, but his legacy continues to live on, as does the way he dazzled F1 during his time in the sport. And Vettel, himself a four-time F1 world champion with Red Bull, will be in attendance at Imola for this year's grand prix, taking place on May 17-19, to help pay his respects to a driver he also admired. The German will get behind the wheel of the MP4/8, the car McLaren competed with in the 1993 championship, which was to be Senna's last with the team before his move to Williams for the following season. "Ayrton Senna was not only a driver who I valued highly for being one of the best racing has ever seen, but also a man of great compassion," said Vettel. "It's been thirty years since his accident and I would like to pay tribute to Ayrton. I will be in Imola for the grand prix to drive his car, the McLaren MP4/8. I hope to see you on Sunday, May 19." Having called time on his illustrious F1 career at the end of 2022, Vettel remains a massive fan favourite, as was showcased by the excitement around news last month that he could be pondering a return to competitive F1 action. Following an endurance test with Porsche, the 36-year-old has admitted that a return to the sport could be "appealing," having also held general talks with Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff. Lewis Hamilton, who will be moving from Mercedes to Ferrari for 2025, also gave a potential Vettel comeback his vote of confidence, describing him as an "amazing option" should Mercedes pick him in 2025.

#not a poll #the week ahead #A lot of Total Drama submissions this week. My Little Pony also has a fair amount

[blogger360ncislarules]

Not a week after the SAG-AFTRA strike ended, CBS is the first broadcast network out of the gate with a game plan for the delayed regular TV season.

CBS’ schedule, which kicks off in February 2024 — right after getting loads of promotion during its airing of the Super Bowl — is nearly identical to the Fall TV slate announced back in May, when the WGA strike was getting underway. The only differences are that Kathy Bates’ new Matlock series has been pushed to the 2024-25 TV season (as has the Wayanses’ Poppa’s House sitcom), and CSI: Vegas is now closing out Sunday nights.

Justin Hartley’s Tracker, as previously announced, will tackle the coveted post-Super Bowl slot, Carrie Preston’s Good Wife spinoff Elsbeth will still call Thursday home, and as the photo above means to remind you, NCIS: LA alum LL Cool J is locked in to continue his NCIS: Hawai’i arc.

Most CBS series are planning to have 10-13 episodes each, running into May.

SUNDAY, FEB. 11 (following Super Bowl LVIII) ~10 pm TRACKER (series premiere)

MONDAY, FEB. 12 8 pm The Neighborhood Season 6 8:30 pm Bob Hearts Abishola Season 5 9 pm NCIS Season 21 10 pm NCIS: Hawai’i Season 3

TUESDAY, FEB. 13 8 pm FBI Season 6 9 pm FBI: International Season 3 10 pm FBI: Most Wanted Season 5

THURSDAY, FEB. 15 9 pm Young Sheldon Season 7 8:30 pm Ghosts Season 3 9 pm So Help Me Todd Season 2 10 pm TRACKER (series premiere repeat)

FRIDAY, FEB. 16 8 pm S.W.A.T. Season 7 (final) 9 pm Fire Country Season 2 10 pm Blue Bloods Season 14

SUNDAY, FEB. 18 7 pm 60 Minutes 8 pm The Equalizer Season 4 9 pm TRACKER (regular time slot premiere) 10 pm CSI: Vegas Season 3 (new night)

WEDNESDAY, FEB. 28 8 pm Survivor Season 46 (2-hour premiere)

THURSDAY, FEB. 29 10 pm ELSBETH (series premiere)

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6 8 pm Survivor (2-hour episode)

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13 8 pm Survivor (return to 90-minute episodes) 9:30 pm The Amazing Race Season 36 (90-minute episodes)

vro0m’s rewatch - 109/301

2012 American GP

Disclaimer for this season. It turns out that I only have the footage of the race for a lot of the GPs (no build-up, no post-race content) so there will be way less GIFs unfortunately. I will let you know for each of these reviews if there are GIFs or not. THIS ONE HAS GIFS.

It's the penultimate race of 2012 and our first time in Austin. We're also back to minimal content, unfortunately.

Seb is on pole. Lewis 2nd, Webber 3rd, 4th Raikkonen, Schumacher is 5th, Hulkenberg 6th, Alonso only 7th.

Formation lap

Lol Patrick Dempsey is here. Not too weird, he raced himself, but he's here with Matt Leblanc. That is weird.

And they're racing!

Ay wtf they're filming the start from the back, I can't see shit. Lewis got overtaken by Webber. Plenty of cars going wide. Alonso up in 4th already. At the end of the first lap then, Webber is only 0.7 behind Seb, then Lewis 1 second behind him, and Alonso 1 second behind him.

Lewis overtakes Webber in lap 3 but he goes wide and Webber keeps the position. He's only half a second behind him. And in lap 4 Lewis does it again and this time makes it stick. His engineer tells him Seb is 2.5 seconds ahead and "We can catch him". Istg if his car breaks down again I'm giving up on this rewatch (but not really). He sets the fastest lap shortly after.

10 laps in, that gap is down by a half. Come on! In the meantime further down Massa is gaining positions as is Raikkonen. Then Seb sets the fastest lap. This is not going to be easy. A little while later he locks up though. Lewis is still 1.2 seconds behind. Now under 1 seconds! He has DRS! Half a second! JEV DNF but honestly who cares right now. Lewis is still around 1 second behind Seb, more or less. Alonso is gaining a lot over Webber in 3rd place. And Webber is told KERS is failing! That explains it... And yep. He's pulled over. It's a DNF. Alonso up in P3.

20 laps in, Lewis is losing on Seb. His tyres must be done. There's 36 laps to go. What will the strategy be? Alonso behind is catching up... Ah yep here you go, McLaren mechanics in the pitlane. Alonso also pits. OH it's an AMAZING pit stop for McLaren, for once! Only 2.4 seconds! Unbelievable! And quite the opposite for Alonso : 6.3!!! And he's really struggling with grip. Seb pits on the next lap, 2.7 seconds. He's still in the lead but now only half a second in front of Raikkonen who's currently P2 but hasn't pitted yet. Lewis is 1.8s behind so also not far away, while Alonso has to make up for 15 seconds after that catastrophic stop, now down in P5 behind Massa who also has yet to stop. And Jenson easily overtook him! It seems to be difficult to get the hard tyres to temperature. And Lewis overtakes Raikkonen! He's back in P2. Remember, he got the hard tyres one lap before Seb so now's the time to set an amazing time before his tyres are at the right temperature. Raikkonen pitted and it's also a terrible stop, 6.4. Let's see. Yeah he tucks in right behind Alonso but he's not far away. Seb's engineer tells him "Hamilton back in P2". It's a warning, but it's Jenson setting the fastest lap. He's now in P4? Ahead of Alonso? When did that happen. Lewis' engineer tells him he's been 2 tenths faster than Seb on the last lap, "we can get him". The gap is indeed only 1.7.

Massa pits so Alonso is back in P4 behind Jenson. Lewis sets the fastest lap. But then he loses time on Seb... I think it's traffic. He's told on the radio that the tyres are doing well and he can go for it basically. Yep that gap is closing again. Half a second in a few corners' time. Seb gains the DRS in the traffic and Lewis is stuck behind a Marussia... Okay he's past. Fastest lap. 1.3 seconds. Fastest lap again. He's under the second. Go baby go. DRS. 0.4... Almost... Lewis has nothing to lose. That can't be said of Seb. Jenson pits, he's the last to do so, on lap 36. Now it's Seb fastest lap. They're giving Lewis more power. It's back to a second wide gap. 0.9. 0.8. 0.6. 0.4... Jenson overtakes Grosjean for P6. I'm starting to wonder whether Lewis can make it... The gap shrinks and widens and shrinks and widens... Neither of them are giving in. Oh. All of a sudden he's closer than he's been this whole race! Ooooh. In the meantime, Schumacher has to move to a two-stop strategy because of how terrible the Mercedes are on the tyres. Oi oi oi almost! 0.2 with the DRS but at the end of the straight it's just not enough! Can Seb resist to the end? 15 laps to go!

Aaaaaaaaah YES HE'S DONE IT YESSSS LEWIS IS IN THE LEAD COME ON! Two guys in the public just got filmed missing a high five in the most embarrassing way possible lol.

Wait what?

Seb gets on the radio : "Unbelievable!" he says. He's complaining about that overtake. I don't understand what he's saying exactly because the radios are absolute shit and they're talking like doctors write prescriptions. But he's pissed. His engineer tells him they saw "that" and to focus on the job. I mean. The overtake was close but not dangerous like... If he felt it was too close he could've lifted or adjusted his line. I'm genuinely baffled as to what he's suggesting Lewis did wrong there (and if you've read these reviews you know for a fact that I don't shy away from calling Lewis out when he's not being clean but I really don't see what Seb is talking about here). Apparently he said "silly overtake". Anyway. While he complains Lewis sets the fastest lap. 12 laps to go.

Jenson is very close to Raikkonen too, fighting for P5. Seb is not giving up on P1, he's only 1.2 behind. Lewis' engineer keeps him updated on sector times, and in answer he worries about whether he's in the DRS zone. Not yet, but this is not over. Jenson overtook Raikkonen. 10 laps to go. Ohh that gap is down to one second now... Lewis... He's not matching pace... Come on... Oh 1.3 so no DRS, thankfully... 7 laps to go. Skysports idc about the fight for 8th show me the lead please. 1.3s. 5 laps to go, 4. Seb is not gaining anymore, phew. 3 laps to go. Now Seb sets the fastest lap again... The gap is 1.4. Apparently Jenson had a KERS problem. 1.7s, 2 laps to go. Final lap... Fastest lap for Lewis!

And it's the end of the race!

Lewis WINS! RedBull wins the WCC. The WDC will be settled in the last race of the season.

(Some Sewis interaction...)

(and a big hug)

Oh we don't get to see the podium?

I found the post race interviews online. The quality is too poor for gifs but let's hear what Lewis had to say anyway. Omg. They have cowboy hats instead of caps. I hate it. Lewis goes to leave the cooling room but Alonso grabs him by the shoulder to see what he looks like in the hat.

Now we jump straight to the post race interviews on the podium, they're wearing regular caps again. It's Mario Andretti interviewing them. He says Lewis really tormented Sebastian "you had the resolve, you did a fabulous race and what I'm interested in, give me some reaction about the circuit." (The circuit almost got scrapped from the calendar before even being used, I read on Wikipedia.) Lewis says he's so happy, the fans have been amazing this weekend (the crowd roars). He says he thinks it's one of the best if not best grand prix they've had all year and especially for him and his team, he hasn't won in a long time and he's so proud, so proud of the work the guys did and so grateful for the support they've had. Seb agrees with Lewis that the grand prix was incredible. It was his 100th GP?! Oh yeah it was.

And just like that, we're moving on to the last race of 2012!

#The Amazing Race 36

Porsche wins the 1821km of Qatar!

The season opener of the WEC was an amazing race! At the start, Ferrari, started from P3, got the first place, while the Toyota from P2 fell back to P6. The race was very interesting in the first three hours, with a group at the front of the field, changing positions and fighting hard. It consisted of Porsche, Ferrari, Peugeot and Jota. Toyota had no chance during the race, which was the first (negative) surprise of the season.

A weird incident happened a few minutes before the end of the race, when the leading Porsche #6 had to pit again, because he lost it's number on the left side of the car and the team hat to put a new one on it. But they had enough room, so they kept the lead and won the race.

Another incident, that was much more dramatic, happened in the second to last lap, when the Peugeot, that was in second place, got slow after the first corner and almost copied the Toyota drama from Le Mans, some years ago. So in the end Porsche won with three cars in front.

Tags: Natural disaster. Trauma related to death.

I didn't think I would be so attached to this anime, but I did.

The story revolved around our two MCs: Madoka Kouya, 36 yo, a professional photographer; and Asahina Haruka, 16 yo, an F4 racer.

Kouya had a trauma so he avoided taking pictures of people, until one day he subconsciously snapped a picture of a crying Haruka backstage after he lost in a race. And the story progressed from there, how Kouya healed his trauma with Haruka's help, and how Haruka could reach his goal with Kouya's help.

I really, really love the dynamic between Haruka & Kouya because I do think that they both need each other at this point in their life so they are both able to move forward. Especially when they bring the best out of each other. Haruka teaches Kouya to communicate his feelings and Kouya is there for Haruka to be his anchor.

Also, the nice combination between F4 racing and photography in this anime is just 👌👌👌

And don't let me start on other characters. Yukihira Saeko, Kouya's ex-wife, is also one of my favorites because she's just the best.

The art is also amazing! Tho ep 1 and ep 12 have the best animation and cinematography in my opinion, the other episodes are also so very beautiful to watch. I love everything about it. Go watch all 12 episodes now!

And if they decide to make another season, count me in.
