English Coffee.

Triggers: 18+ only!, some DA, name calling, etc.

Summary: Fionnuala has had a shit time, so when she gets screamed at by a customer it’s the last straw. She gets a job working with Greta Van Fleet on their tour as a costume design assistant. She has a rule for no relationships but what happens when she catches the eye of Josh? Will she go ahead and follow her heart, or will she refuse and lose everything she loves ?

Chapter 3

I woke up to my alarm going off, I got out of bed and started doing my normal morning routine to get myself ready. I put on my dungarees, and collected my things and went to meet Jess in the hallway.

I was the first one out here as I was early, like always.

I took a selfie in the hotel mirror and decided to post it to my story, I will also keep an eye out for if Ezra has a second account. I didn’t tag the location because if he did I didn’t want him to know where I was.

I sent a few texts to to my mum with some pictures attached of dunkin’, mcdonald’s and the hotel. I also sent her one promising to call her today when I’ve landed in Fort Worth. I texted Orla back from last night after she finally replied and she wanted screenshots so I sent them. I had another missed call from a blocked number, and sent that along too and told her I will call to discuss later.

Jess came out her room, and she smiled when she saw me. ‘You haven’t been waiting long have you?’ She asked while walking past me to the lifts, ‘No, I just came out a few minutes ago. I like to be early or I feel late.’ I said walking to catch up with her.

‘So the guys are meeting us in the lobby and then we can all hop in my car to the airport, it will get sent over after so not too long without it hopefully. We will then go to our hotel, drop our stuff etc and meet back up for lunch?’ She asked while bringing her phone out to text someone. ‘Sounds good to me! Wait, the guys were staying in this hotel the whole time?’ I asked while walking out the lift to the lobby, ‘Yep, did you not know? They were like 3 rooms down. I’m surprised you didn’t hear them coming back last night they were loud. Oh also, they want us to watch their show tonight. So after lunch we can work a bit then go straight there?’ She said, she walked us over to one of the seating areas to wait for the guys, I can already tell they are gonna be late to a lot.

The next 10 minutes went by slowly while we waited for the guys to show. At 07.10 me and Jess stood up to grab our suitcases and bags and start walking out the door, ‘Oh well, it’s their own issue now. Let’s get to the airport and grab a coffee and bagel.’ I agreed with her, we had just walked out into the blazing sun when we heard shouting behind us. ‘Jess, Flo wait up!’ I turn around to see Josh chasing after us with Sam on his heels. I laughed at the sight of them, it looked like they had rolled out of bed.

‘Well Jess we have our winners, they look a state but they’re here. Did you guys just get out of bed?’ I asked while laughing and getting into the car. ‘We got in late after the concert and we woke up late. We wanted to get the car so we don’t have to wait for an uber.’ Sam says getting the back, ‘Anyway why did you get shotgun?’ He asks as we pull off. ‘I got it because I’m Jess’ assistant and her friend.’ I said plugging my phone in and playing some music. ‘That’s right, and she wasn’t late.’ Jess says looking in the rear view mirror.

I turned round to smirk, and took in the state of the two of them. Sam was dressed in some basketball shorts and an old jumper, his hair chucked into a messy bun and he looked like he was going to nod back off any second. Josh was in some black jogging bottoms and a big black jumper, the necklaces still present round his neck and his curly mop of hair messy on his head. The slight facial hair looked good on him, he looked good. He looked up at me and smiled, I got butterflies from the sight of him.

‘How was the gig?’ I asked looking at him, he stared at me for a minute before answering. ‘It was great! The fans were amazing, they sung along to every song. Your luck helped us I believe.’ I smiled and turned around. Do not get involved Flo!

‘Glad to hear it!’ I said and skipped a couple of songs before one I like came on. ‘You have a wide variety of music, love.’ Josh said from behind me, my heart skipped a beat at the nickname and I could feel my face heating up. Jess peeked over at me and smirked, I quickly shot her a look.

‘Yeah I like a few different varieties, depends on my mood.’ I said as I looked forward. ‘I like it.’ Josh said, he had leaned forward in the seat and I could feel his breath on my neck. Goosebumps arrived on my skin and I shivered. What is going on? I can’t be developing a crush on this guy! He’s a fucking rockstar, and I’m just some girl from England. It would never work.

We arrived at the airport and we unloaded our suitcases before walking into the terminal. Josh stayed close to me through customs and security, I kept glancing over at him and try to look away before he caught my gaze. We got into the duty free and I told the guys I was going to go look in a few shops and I will see them at the gate. They nodded and I went off into a bookshop, to see if they had any Stephen King I like that I could take for the journey. I picked up a couple before putting them down, ‘What you got there?’ I heard Josh say from behind me, shit.

‘Just looking at some Stephen King.’ I said while walking further up the rack. ‘Didn’t take you for a horror fan?’ Josh said leaning up against the books beside me. I glanced over and he was smiling slightly, I could smell the cologne coming off him. ‘No? I thought I did. Well anyway, I love Stephen King. He’s an amazing writer.’ I picked up a copy of Misery, it was a cover I didn’t have. ‘I’ve never given him a try, not sure if I like horror.’ Josh said, picking up one to have a skim through. ‘Maybe you should borrow my copy of Pet Sematary, see if you like it before committing to buying.’ I offered, he looked at me and smiled more. ‘I’d love that!’ I handed him the copy from my carry on.

I stared walking to the till, and he quickly followed. I glanced over my shoulder at him, ‘Can I help you Joshua?’ I said handing the lady cash before walking out, thanking her. ‘Are you coming to the show tonight?’ He asked, we were strolling past shops slowly making our way for the gate. ‘I believe so, Jess mentioned us going after working.’

‘Good, me and the guys are going out after for a few drinks, I would love for you to come.’ He said, looking over at me. ‘Oh, you would love me to come would you?’ I teased, I saw a little coffee stand and walked up. ‘Yeah, it would be good for us all to get away from work.’ Josh said, ‘I liked the picture you posted this morning, darling.’ I blushed and thanked him. I asked him if he would like anything and he asked for a flat white. I got a latte and we paid. Looking over at him while we walked I took in his appearance some more.

He had gorgeous green eyes, and a couple of piercings in his ear. His hair was a mop on his head, but the shaved sides gave him a more edgy appearance. He really was gorgeous. I hated that I found him gorgeous.

‘Or is it so you can get me drunk and force my middle name out of me?’ I sat down as I said this, Jess and Sam opposite discussing her designs for an upcoming show. I took a sip of my coffee and sighed, ‘See this coffee is better.’ Sam chuckled and continued talking to Jess. ‘Could be that, or I could just want to spend some time outside of work with you.’ Josh said from beside me, I quickly smiled and looked at him. ‘I’d love to Joshua.’ He rolled his eyes at my nickname and smiled.

We boarded the plane and I got sat next to Jess and some stranger. I looked over at her from the middle seat, ‘I’ve had a couple of blocked numbers call me.’ I said. ‘What? Do you think it’s him?’ She asked turning to look at me, ‘I’m not sure. It’s been a few times now so I think so. Do I answer if it calls again?’ She shook her head, ‘Absolutely not. Just leave it to ring out.’ I nodded, ‘I’m not a very good flyer just to let you know, so I will probably just stick my airpods in and done out if that’s okay.’ She nodded and patted my shoulder, ‘It’s only connecting so it’s not a very long flight anyway.’

I stuck some Green Lung on and tried to keep myself calm while we took the flight.

Images of Josh filled my mind, then I thought about Ezra. I know I am staring to develop a crush on Josh, and I need to stop it. It’s never going to work, we would just end breaking up. I have to go back to England, long distance wouldn’t work. But the way he looks at me, the way he smiles. His laugh. It’s all pulling me in too much.

After we landed and had to stand behind about 50 people who didn’t understand how to walk off a plane, we quickly got into a uber. I again got stuck in the middle with Josh and Sam either side of me. ‘So Flo, you coming out for some drinks with us later?’ Sam said while chucking his arm round me. I patted his hand and nodded, ‘Sure am Sammy. If that’s alright with you guys. Josh invited me.’ I said looking over at him, he smiled. ‘She said she will Sam!’ ‘I can’t wait! Let’s get this Brit on an American night out.’ I laughed and stuck my arm round his neck.

After we got to the hotel and checked in, me and Jess went to grab some food and headed to the venue to start sending our designs off to the tailor who will make them.

‘So we just need to grab some last minute measurements from the guys and then we can send the designs off. Do you mind doing that while I start to scan the designs ?’ I nodded and started eating my sandwich. ‘Yeah I’ll text them to come over.’

Greta

Flo: I need you guys for some measurements please 🤷🏻‍♀️

Jake: Be there in 15

Danny: Coming now

Josh: I’ll be there love

Sammy: Walking in now

I got set up with the tape measure and stand and sat on the sofa, I knew they would be late so I had time to kill.

Orla: Ring me ! Miss you 💘

I facetimed Orla and set her up on the dressing table.

‘Hiya! How is my flat?’ I said while sitting down.

‘It’s fine you worry too much! How work?’ She was sitting in the lounge and had set her phone on the coffee table. ‘Good, just waiting for the guys to do some last minute measurements before we send the designs off to be made.’ I said eating some crisps. ‘So, Josh yeah?’ She said smirking. ‘No, it’s not like that remember. I am not getting involved. I’m here to work. But he did say he liked my music taste, that he wants to see me out of work and he liked the picture I posted.’ I laughed. ‘Come on! This is a once in a lifetime experience ! There is no harm in exploring.’ She got up and took me with her. ‘Yes, there is. Remember ?’ I was still leaning on the chair. ‘Josh isn’t him Flo. You know that.’ She was in the kitchen now, making some coffee. ‘I know, but some part of me still worries.’ We chatted some more about how shit the coffee is here before Sam suddenly burst into the room.

‘I have arrived !’ He said, I jumped and screamed. ‘Sammy, warning next time!’ Orla was just staring at him in shock, ‘Oh Sam! This is Orla. She is my best friend she’s watching my flat while in away.’ I introduced them and Sam waved. ‘Hiya! I’m Sam. Flo is doing an amazing job with us!’ Orla seemed to come out of her trance, ‘Yeah, yeah I bet she is. She’s amazing. Sorry, it’s so good to meet you! I love your band.’ She says quickly, she goes bright red in the face and seems to want to shrink further away. ‘Thank you! Means a lot, actually we never asked you. Flo, have you heard of us?’ I looked over at Sam, still laughing slightly at the state of Orla. ‘Yeah, I have. I only knew a few songs but I loved your guys sound and look. I didn’t know who you were when I applied for the job tho.’ I said standing and staring to get things ready to measure him.

‘Orla, sorry babe I have to go. I’ll call you tomorrow?’ I say, while walking back to the phone. ‘Yes please! Love you have fun. So good to meet you Sam, I’m coming to some shows in Europe soon! See you there’ She says while waving. ‘Bye Orla!’ Sam nearly shouts while waving back. My phone beeps that’s the call has ended, and I walk over to collect it.

‘Right, ready?’ I say while holding Sam’s hand to walk him over to the podium. ‘Yes sir!’ He announces, I get all his measurements, with minimal interruptions from him and send him on his way. ‘Please collect anyone else on your way! We need this doing today.’ I say while texting my mum back about how work is going. ‘Looks like someone is already here waiting for you.’ He says smirking and walking down the hall.

‘Hello love! Told you I wouldn’t be long.’ Josh walks in smiling, I smile back, the nickname making my heart skip. I showed him to the podium. ‘I’m surprised, I heard from Jess that you are notoriously late.’ I say while measuring his leg length. ‘Oh I can be, that is if I don’t have a pretty lady waiting for me.’ He says, I look up at him and he looks like he has gone all shy. He was smiling but had also gone bright red. ‘Oh, really? That’s highly inappropriate Mr. Kiszka.’ I said while trying to his my smile as I stood up to measure his arms. ‘Sorry! I didn’t want to make it awkward. I’ll stop.’ He says quickly. I laughed and glanced up at him from the tape measure, he looked incredibly awkward and I immediately felt bad.

‘No Josh! I’m kidding, I don’t mind.’ I said patting his shoulder. He seemed to calm down, but I could still see the slight blush on his cheek. I tried to change the subject to take the heat off him, ‘So where are we going for drinks later?’ I asked, looking up at him slightly while pulling the tape measure round his waist. I felt him tense up, my heart jumped and I took a deep breath to calm myself.

‘I believe a little bar that Sam knows.’ He said not looking at me, ‘Of course it’s somewhere Sam knows. The man is basically an alcoholic.’ Josh giggled at my comment. ‘What time are we meeting? Or are we just going after the concert?’ I asked while stepping away and walking over to make notes of his sizes. I heard him shuffling around the room while I wrote. ‘I believe after the concert, we are going to shower and change then we will get going.’ He said coming to lean against the table next to me. He stared down at me, I looked up at him and smiled a bit. ‘Sounds good to me.’ I said.

He continued to look at me, something swimming about his eyes. I looked away first, I need to stop this while we are here, I will just end up hurt. ‘Um, do you mind grabbing Danny or Jake for me please?’ I asked looking down at my notes. ‘Oh, yeah sure.’ Josh said, his mood seemed to dampen. He walked out after that, I couldn’t stop thinking if I did that. Did I upset him? Surely he knows this wouldn’t work, we have just met. He couldn’t have got feelings that quick.

I finished up with Jake and Danny, both of them chatting about how excited they are for the show. I promised I would be there and cheering them on.

A few hours later, after meeting Jess and sending off the final designs and measurements to the tailor. Me and Jess were standing by the side of the stage waiting for the boys to go on.

‘Any more phone calls?’ Jess asks quietly, not letting the other staff hear. ‘Nothing yet.’ I said looking around. I hadn’t actually met any of the other staff yet, I might have to introduce myself soon. ‘Maybe it was nothing. Just some scam.’ I looked over at her, she nodded sipping her drink. ‘I hope so. You don’t need that weighing on you while we are here.’ She said, sitting down on a chair behind her. ‘So.’ She says smirking at me. ‘What?’ I asked staring at her, she stared at me like she knew something. ‘Josh?’ She asked, wiggling her eyebrows. I huffed and chucked my hands up. ‘Orla and now you. There is nothing going on! We have just met and are friends. It would never work anyway. Our lives are so different.’ I said, sitting on the chair next to her watching the staff run around making final adjustments.

The crowd was amazing here, all these people here to see them. I couldn’t imagine the feeling, the adrenaline that would course your veins as hundreds of people sung your on words back at you.

‘I don’t know, I think there is something there. I’m not going to tell you to not go for it, I think you should. See what happens, it couldn’t hurt.’ Jess said sipping her drink. At that moment, the guys came running round the corner all shouting and jumping. ‘Ready pretty ladies?’ Sam asked. Me and Jess laughed and nodded, ‘Hope you love the show !’ Jake said smiling, holding his guitar. Danny smiled and cheered, I smiled back. ‘Good luck!’ I shouted holding Jess’ hand up.

They all ran on, fans screaming when they saw them. Josh was waiting back, ‘What are you doing? You have got to be on stage.’ I said, pointing after his brothers. ‘I wanted to make sure you will stay for the whole thing.’ He said staring at me. I took in his outfit, a beautiful celestial style cape hung behind him with a white jumpsuit covered in silver beads and trimming. His hair was curled on top of his head, and he had silver eyeshadow pulled from his lids to his eyes and rhinestones decorating his under eye. He looked heavenly.

I felt my mouth go dry looking at him, ‘Yeah, me and Jess are gonna stay.’ I said quietly, losing my voice at the sight of him. ‘Good, see you soon darling.’ He smirked running on stage waving a tambourine about while the other guys played the intro to a song.

‘Just friends, yeah?’ Jess said smirking from her chair.

TSITP 2x07 - "Love Affaire" : Review

It was finally looking like a summer vibe type of episode.

Did anyone notice that in this episode we didn't have any Belly's POV / voice-over. I would have loved to have her thoughts on the kiss she shared with Jeremiah.

I was honestly shock by Laurel attitude toward Belly at the beginning, the slap wasn't necessary.

We got robbed of any Taylor and Steven's moments.

The house plot got resolved quite easily it just needed for Laurel to get sooner to Cousins. Aunt Julia is not to be blamed, but Adam.... I honestly still don't get the necessity of why this character was created in the first place. Even worse the movers move all the stuff from the house to replace them exactly in the same place again? Very convenient. As for Adam I will become homeless with his solution? Isn't the principal house in Boston also full with Susannah's memories?

I'm glad that Belly and Conrad got to talk and appeased the situation.

I'm also glad that Jeremiah and Conrad got to talk on the beach and share thoughts. To have a mature conversation for once.

I loved every touching moment between Jeremiah and Belly, and there were a lot.

I would have loved for Belly to confess the feelings she has about Jeremiah to Conrad, but maybe not just before a super important examen.

I honestly cried during Laurel and Susannah's flash back. It was emotionally intense.

I really didn't see the bromance coming between Steven and Conrad.

Belly and Steven's moment was nice in this episode.

We finally learned that we are currently in June, because the 4th of July has not yet passed.

Furthermore, I firmly believe that it's Belly last time at the Cousins house during this season. The way she looked at the front of the house when Jeremiah drive them away.

Then it was the best part where Jeremiah got to show Flinch College to Belly. The complicity of those two together is phenomenal. The way they were flirting but without getting in not to hurt each other. He is definitively her best friend, the boy she knows better than anyone else. The ideal partner that every girl wants in their life. And during the tour, we could really see a glimpse of their future together on the campus as boyfriend and girlfriend. The all scene made me think about an ad for "Abercrombi & Fitch".

And then the moment that everyone was waiting for since the beginning of the season finally happened, but everything made it more messy, because finally everything was settled and went "back to normal", but Belly decided to kiss Jeremiah in Brown and not during their tour in Flinch, creating this all mess in the first place. In a way, I think she did it because she became aware of what she could have during their journey back to Brown and she couldn't miss her chance. She wants Jeremiah and the future they will have as she told him so well inside the Volleyball court. I really could picture them there living a beautiful couple life. But then Conrad caught them, that's why Belly was wearing the Brown sweat, never exchanging it with the Flinch sweat, as a foreshadowing that Conrad is still there. As for the kissing part on the Ranger Rover, some people are saying that's Conrad's car, but I honestly don't see the point in it, because I'm pretty sure that the true owner of the car is their father who had the money to buy this type of car in the first place.

As for the kiss it was very hot, the most intense kiss two characters has shared in this series. Jeremiah was true to his world, he really couldn't stop kissing her and touching her too. At one point, I thought he would put down Belly on the front of the car and take her here and there (oh my mind.... what are you doing to me). But Conrad appeared at the wrong time and the wrong moment.

As for the cliffhanger it's really a kind of season's ending scene. I could honestly see this episode to be the last before season 3.

#tsitp thoughts #tsitp season 2 #tsitp 2 #tsitp #tsitp 2x07 #love affaire #the summer i turned pretty #the summer i turned pretty season 2 #belly x jeremiah #belly x jeremiah x conrad #team jelly #where are taylor and steven #tsitp review

Cafe

Chapter 2

There was a slight overcast with no rain. It had been over a week since you met Austin. You didn't think about him. When you did think about him, it was his cologne. How intoxicating it was. His hair looked perfectly messy. His eyes how brightly turquoise they were. There was one thing you kept going back to, his smile. You were just too busy reading your new author's book. Besides, Austin probably didn't remember you. Which was fine, you don't need or even want a boyfriend. Were you seriously thinking he would want to be your boyfriend? The last time you dated an up-and-coming star, he turned out to be an asshole.

Shaking your head, you roll over to turn off the alarm before it goes off. You woke before the alarm. You didn't have to get up. It was a Saturday one of your rare days off. You chose to go for a run and get a coffee on your way back home. You might start to read one of the books you bought. Getting off the bed, you think about making it, shrug, and leave it. It was still summer. You put on your favorite shorts for running and an old t-shirt. Not really doing anything with your hair, you flip it in a messy bun, grab your running shoes, and take off.

You run your usual route. You feel great. You were listening to the workout channel on Spotify. You turn a corner and head to your favorite coffee shop. You are waiting in line when you hear that husky voice. “Y/N, You come here too. You know we need to stop meeting like this.” smiling cheekily, he said. Your eyes nearly pop out of your head. He remembered your name. Sucking in your lips you turn around, “Austin, people are going to start to talk.” He smiles, nodding, “What do you get here?” You look down and then back up at him, “It’s the weird one. Americano.” you say embarrassingly. “Why would that be weird?” he questioned. “I dunno.” you shrug. “I find it brave.” Laughing, “Brave, how so.” “Well, I like iced coffee. So that’s brave.” “if you say so,” giggling you innocently crinkle up your nose. The line moves and now it is your turn to order your drink. Giving the barista your order you started to pay for your order, but Austin steps up, “She’s with me.” he smiled and then chuckled. His dimple showed up. He orders his drink, telling the barista it’s for Justin. You remember your ex doing that.

As you two try to sit, Austin squints, “Shit!” he utters. You start to turn Austin puts both hands on your shoulders and stops you. “Unless you want to be on every gossip magazine or TMZ do not look towards the entrance.” You feel the heat rise in your face. Your ex would never care about you like that. A few bricks fell from your wall. You sit across from Austin, he is facing the windows and the door. The barista shouted, “Justin!” “I got ‘em,” he says, getting up. Bringing back the drinks, he looks absolutely scrumptious. You feel a tingle in your stomach. More bricks fall.

It was so lovely talking to Austin. He seemed downed to earth. He hardly spoke about himself. He took over the conversation. He wanted to know everything about you. He got sad when you told him about your father passing away. He told you about his mother and how it had affected him. You talked for a few hours. He kept looking out the window, hoping the paps would leave you alone. Of course, they didn't, so you told Austin there was a back door. He planned to walk out the front, and you would walk out the back. That way, they would take pictures of him and not any of you. You started to feel self-conscious wearing your workout clothes. Austin must have picked up on this, "Welp, It has been nice talking with you, and thank you for staying with me. I appreciate that. I am sure you have places to go." He got up from his seat, and before you got up, he held your chair for you. "Thank you, " you said. "Of course." He nodded. "I guess I will see around." You said, "You too,” he acknowledges. You walk to the back and look behind. He walks to the front, turns, and winks at you. More bricks fall.

Thanks for reading!!

If you'd like to be tagged, please don't hesitate to let me know. Also, comments are always welcome.

Baking Bloopers

As island rep, it's your job to help new islanders settle in. But you're particularly excited, as this islander is not exactly new, but rather an old and beloved friend.

This one's for you @sallymoon135! I was so happy to write this one though and I hope you like it 💞

Patty is amazing, I love the cow villagers! It's a shame there's not more of them.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You stroll along the stone walkway, a basket of baking ingredients in tow, headed toward a brown house with a red roof.

“Her style hasn’t changed a bit!” You think to yourself, a little skip in your step as you follow your self-constructed path eastward. As you said goodbye to one friend, another new one usually contacts Tom within a few days and moves on over. This friend, however, is not exactly “new.” New to your island, sure, but you two went back. It had been years since you saw each other last.

You could barely contain your excitement as you knocked on the door.

“Be right there!” a familiar voice called, and in a moment, you were greeted by a brown cow. The broom in her hoof and dust on her orange dress told you she was hard at work getting settled.

“Need a hand, neighbor?” you grinned, and your grin grew into an elated smile as comprehension washed over the bovine’s features.

“Y..Y/N?! What are you doing here!?”

“I live here!”

“So, we’re…”

“We’re neighbors again!” Patty dropped her broom and you two embraced, both of you jumping excitedly in each other’s arms.

“I can’t believe you’re here!” You exclaimed.

“I can’t believe you’re here! Tom told me the island rep would be here to say hi, but I didn’t know he was talking about my long-distance bestie!” Patty said, motioning for you to come in. Most of her things were still in boxes, but there was a couch and a refrigerator ready for use.

“I brought some stuff to make a cake with. I thought we could bake together, you know, like before.” You said a bit sheepishly, extending the basket. “My NookPhone has a pretty solid camera, too. We could make a video and post it online. If you still were looking to get your brand out there.” Patty looked thoughtfully at you.

“How now! Yes, of course! We’ll make the most fab cake this island has ever seen! We’ll go from food to fame, you and me!” She said, accepting the basket. Then paused to look around her house.

“Well, maybe after I unpack a little bit.”

“Why don’t I help you? We could be done in no time!” Patty smiled.

“Oh, my fabulous bestie! Thank you!”

You dove into the first box in front of you, which funnily enough was kitchenware. Patty might have had more kitchenware and appliances than clothes, but that was a close race. She wanted a pop star life, and she had the voice and determination to start something. But she was good at other things too, having another passion for crafting the most gourmet food out of seemingly nothing. You’d seen her work firsthand, introducing herself to you in your old neighborhood with a simple yet flavorful orange tart.

You placed her mixer on the island countertop and her various grilling and cooking utensils in cabinets while she worked on living room décor and setting up her computer. That video wasn’t going to edit and upload itself, after all.

You started on a second box, one filled with framed pictures. You figured she’d want to place these, but you couldn’t help taking a peek. There was one with her and Brewster; apparently, she used to work with him at The Roost. You found some of the other mutual friends you two shared, and some of her, a little younger and with her parents. Finally, you pulled out a framed photo of the two of you. You both were covered in flour, but your smiles were wide and goofy behind a messy countertop.

“I remember this,” you chuckled as your bovine bestie came over.

“How-now, the kitchen looks great! Thank you!” She remarked, looking over your job. “Whatcha got?”

“Check this out,” you said giddily, flipping the photo to show Patty, “Remember when you tried to teach me how to bake your blonde brownies?”

“Tried is the right word there! You didn’t have a baking bone in your body!”

“Hey, I did my best! I totally have at least one baking bone now.”

“Oh yeah? Then let’s do it! Let’s make the video!” You blanked, not expecting to be put on the spot.

“Wait, now?”

“Why not?” Patty asked, hyping you and herself up. “I found my camera stand, our NookPhones can sit on that. And I’ll be there too, duh! It’ll be okay. I won’t let you catch my house on fire.”

“Pfft,” you scoffed. “Prepare yourself, because I don’t think you’re ready to handle my baking skills.”

“The microwave doesn’t count, how-now!”

“Ouch,” you chuckled, gathering the basket you brought over while Patty set up her NookPhone.

“So, bestie, when was the last time you made a video?” Patty asked, helping to lay out ingredients so they were at their most presentable.

“Probably when our picture was taken.” You said sheepishly. After you left your neighborhood to pursue another career path, you haven’t thought too much about becoming famous. “Maybe I should just be cameraperson?”

“How about a guest star? We can still be on screen together, but not all the time. And you know you could be a guest star in my house whenever you want!” You thought that could work. Much less time and dedication on your part, since you also had a whole island full of residents to look after. But you still get to help your long-time friend with her goals. You shrugged.

“What the hell, guest star it is!”

You stood behind the NookPhone, making sure lighting and sound were all in Patty’s favor. You started a countdown.

“Three, two…” she seemed almost nervous, until “one, action!” was called, and a switch had been flipped.

“How-now, cows, bees, and all in between! My name’s Patty, and welcome to my TubeView channel!”

“She’s already got an intro and a platform? I shouldn’t be surprised,” you thought.

“Today we’ll be making a two-tier chocolate cake, using my very own recipe. And today, to help with my ultra-special very first episode is my dear friend, Y/N!” It was just you two in the house, but still, you took a deep breath before walking into the frame. Suddenly you were shy and a little anxious.

“Now Y/N, you’re the ever-so-famous island representative over at Y/Island, can you tell us just a little bit about that?”

“Um, sure…” you started, and as you started explaining briefly what you do, everything started becoming more natural. It was like being introduced to a friend of Patty’s you’d never met before.

“That sounds like a lot of hard work! Not here though, your job here will be… a piece of cake!” You paused for a moment before bursting out laughing at her terrible joke. Patty was startled, but only for a moment before she joined you.

“Yhaha/N-anahaha, it wahas a bad joke!” Patty exclaimed, leaning on the counter.

“I knohohow!” you choked out, trying to calm down.

“Ohokay, I’ll edit that out myself. Please, continue.” Patty took a deep breath and listed the ingredients needed for the cake, some residual humor still played in her voice.

“Now Y/N, first we combine the dry ingredients. Go ahead and add the flour to our bowl.” You did so, rather aggressively, giving you and Patty a fresh covering of flour. She looked at you blankly.

“Well, this feels familiar,” you said, snickering a little bit. Patty face palmed but hid a smile creeping up on her features. She glared back at you and you, measuring cup still in hand, brought it up to your mouth to give it a puff of air. This sent the remaining flour flying over your friends’ features.

You were noticeably trying not to have another giggle fit. That is until Patty took a pinch of flour from the bowl and blew it in your direction, which seemed to break the dam.

“Ohoho, it’s oohohn,” you giggled, taking a pinch as well and blowing it towards Patty, who could no longer keep a stern face and was cackling alongside you.

“Thaahat’s it!” Patty lunged, but just missed as you ran around the island, putting it between you two. You reached for more of the flour but missed as you flung it. She ran quickly around the island, more quickly than you anticipated as you tripped trying to get your legs from 0 to 100. Patty hurried and sat on your back, reaching down and finding the shallows of your underarms.

“WaitwaitwaIT! Bwahahaha! Paahahatteehehey!” You squealed at the surprise ticklish sensation. You kicked and thrashed, but being on your stomach didn’t give you much leverage as Patty was free to trail from your underarms to your ribs, sending you quickly into hysterics.

“Awww, my fabulous bestie, look at you! You’re adorable!” Patty cooed, adding to the blush forming on your face.

“Paahahahaatteeeey! STohohohohop!” you pleaded, trying and failing to grab her wrists, which was much harder to do on your belly. She giggled before responding.

“But your laugh is so wonderful, how-now! I could just tickle you all day and listen!”

“Nohohoho YOU CAHAHAN’T!! BWAHAHA!” You cried, erupting in renewed cackles as your bovine friend kneaded your hip bones. You were kicking wildly behind you as each poke, scratch, and squeeze sent a giddy current through your body. And honestly, you weren’t complaining.

“What’s wrong bestie?” Patty asked innocently as her tickles further descended you into madness, “You even said, it’s on!”

“Yohoho’re cheheheheating!!” Patty gasped at the accusation and halted her attack for a moment.

“Cheating? Absolutely not, how now! I’m actually doing you a favor!”

“What kind of favor is THIS!?” You were still trying to get out from underneath your sinister companion and thought you managed to wriggle free. However, you only managed to roll on your back; Patty still straddled your waist. And something about that look in her eye said that was exactly what she wanted.

“Well, you said you had at least one baking bone in your body. I wanted to help you find it!” Oh no.

“Patty that’s not necessary-”

“We’ll start looking here!” And with that, she began the “search” on and in between your ribs.

“Patty-EEE HEHEHE! NOOHOHOHOT AGAHAHIAN!” you cried out, grabbing her wrists, but more for something to hold onto than to pry away.

“Sorry, bestie, the process might tickle juuust a bit!” she teased, and chuckled when you covered your face, as if Patty wasn’t aware of what her words were doing.

“What do you think a baking bone would feel like, how-now? Like, how will we know I found it?” Patty asked as your giggles continued to bubble out.

“I might just have to listen for it.” She slowed, baiting the question, which you promptly asked.

“Lihehesten for it?”

“Yes! More giggles must mean I’m close, right?”

“Patty that’s not how that-WORHOHORKS!” She started her search again on your hip bones, and you threw your head back, eliciting a yelp before once again dissolving into a mad cackle.

“Hmm, I think I’m closer!” Patty grinned, slowly spidering her way to the soft part of your belly, creeping under your shirt. Her touch was feathery and light, and it was almost unbearable.

“Pahahahtty!!” Your voice went up an octave as you instinctively tried to curl in on yourself. Patty resorted to pinching your sides every time you did. “I cahahahan’t!”

“You can’t what, bestie?” Patty asked, still in a way that seemed like she was an innocent bystander in your demise.

“Ihihihit tihihckles, Pahahtty!”

“I warned you it might, how-now!” she responded gleefully, but saw your mirthful tears and thought you about had as much as you could take. “I’ll check just one more place!” She stated, but before you had time to react your bubbling titters turned boisterous as ticklish sensations shot through your body. Patty squeezed the tops of one of your knees while spidering the top of the other.

“I think I found it!... Or I might have found a funny bone. Either way, I love the laughs you have, bestie!” Patty encouraged, and your blush deepened yet again. Pretty soon you hadn’t the strength to squirm anymore, and realizing this Patty stopped and rolled off your waist, taking a seat on the floor next to you.

“Maybe we got something on camera worthy of a blooper reel!” She exclaimed.

“You are NOT putting this online!” You scolded, still catching your breath. She laughed in response and helped you to sit up.

“As many followers as you might get just by being a total cutie, I wouldn’t do that. I would use the flour fight though, that was fun!”

“It was all fun,” you said before you could stop yourself.

“It was, wasn’t it, how-now? We always have a blast together!” Patty exclaimed, wrapping her arms around your neck in a sincere hug.

“I’ve missed you, bestie! I’m so glad we’re neighbors again!” Touched, you returned her gesture.

“Me too.”

Scripts - S6 - Episode 20 (Part 1 of 2)

Guilty secrets challenge

NARRATOR: Welcome back to Love Island, folks! Last time, {0} was certainly spying some double trouble with Ozzy’s twin, Marshall.

NARRATOR: Plus, Marshall’s about to dish some serious beef…

NARRATOR: Woah, woah! Not that kind of beef! Get your mind out of the gutter!

NARRATOR: What I mean is, Marshall’s spilling the tea on his twin.

NARRATOR: It’s tea-time, my friends! Let’s jump back in!

Marshall sits you down at the loungers and takes a deep breath.

MARSHALL_IDLE: {0}...

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: There’s something you gotta know about Ozzy.

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: What?

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: Don’t be fooled by his nice boy persona.

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: Ozzy’s always been good at putting on a show.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Believe me, I’m the dude’s twin.

PLAYER_SERIOUS: What are you trying to say, Marshall?

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: I’m just warning you…

Marshall shifts uncomfortably in his seat.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: Ozzy betrayed me, {0}.

I’m sorry to hear that

PLAYER_IDLE: I’m sorry to hear that, Marshall.

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: Families can be complicated sometimes. Even twins… I know that myself.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Families squabble, sure, but this was different.

Save me the over-dramatics!

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: Oh please, save me the over-dramatics, Marshall!

PLAYER_IDLE: You’re making this sound like a soap opera.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I wish I was exaggerating, but I’m not.

What’s that got to do with me?

PLAYER_SERIOUS: And what’s this got to do with me, Marshall?

MARSHALL_IDLE: I’ve seen you guys getting closer.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I know there might be something between you two.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I just want to give you the full unfiltered picture.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Before you make your mind up about him.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: Believe me, {0}.

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: It was a full-on betrayal.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: I used to be his wing-man for both business and pleasure.

MARSHALL_IDLE: We even worked together.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Then the vibes got real messy.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I was his promoter.

MARSHALL_ANGRY: A great promoter, at that.

PLAYER_IDLE: What does that involve?

MARSHALL_IDLE: I basically liaised with celeb clients and stuff on his behalf.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: It was me who put him on the map.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: I think Ozzy mentioned this!

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: He said he’d had a promoter that was a bit of a disaster.

PLAYER_IDLE: Set him back career wise.

MARSHALL_SURPRISED: Set him back?

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Please, spare me.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: He’s still spewing rubbish then!

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: What happened?

MARSHALL_IDLE: We had totally different visions for his career.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: My philosophy is all about momentum and pace.

MARSHALL_IDLE: You’ve got to nail the right deals, then leave the scraps for everyone else.

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: Ozzy, on the other hand, he’s slow, stubborn and way too proud.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: Careers aren't made like that.

MARSHALL_ANGRY: The boy turned down every opportunity I put in his lap.

MARSHALL_IDLE: He thought everything would just fall into place without any true grind.

PLAYER_IDLE: I see.

MARSHALL_SAD: Next thing I know, he hires this rival promoter just to spite me.

MARSHALL_SAD: Never even told me face-to-face; I got fired by text by my own twin!

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: Ozzy fired you by text?

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: I know right, how could you fire this face?

Marshall’s eyes fall to the ground.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Obviously this kinda stuff happens on the regular in the entertainment biz.

MARSHALL_SAD: You just don’t expect your own twin to go behind your back.

PLAYER_SAD: Sounds intense.

MARSHALL_SAD: Last time I checked he was still a backup dancer.

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: He should have followed my advice.

Marshall sighs, then gives you a mischievous look.

MARSHALL_SAD: But that’s Ozzy.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Always ready to drop people for the next new shiny thing.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: I’ve already seen him do it in here. With you.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: With me?

MARSHALL_IDLE: He says he would drop Grace for you, right?

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Just you wait.

Marshall clicks his fingers.

MARSHALL_IDLE: He’ll soon drop you for the next pretty girl that walks in. Like that.

Thanks for the warning

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: Well, thanks for the warning, I guess.

MARSHALL_IDLE: No problem.

MARSHALL_SERIOUS: You deserve to know the truth about him.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Don’t be fooled by old twinkle toes.

Leave me out of this

PLAYER_IDLE: I think you should leave me out of this, Marshall.

PLAYER_SERIOUS: Seems to me like you’re stirring the pot.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Stirring the pot?

MARSHALL_IDLE: I don’t stir anything, {0}.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: You’ve seen my cooking skills.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I’m just giving you the stone cold facts.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Beware of Mr Twinkle Toes. He’ll dance rings around you.

You’ve got Ozzy wrong

PLAYER_SERIOUS: You’ve got Ozzy all wrong, Marshall.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I’m just telling you the stone cold facts, {0}.

PLAYER_IDLE: The Ozzy I know would never do anything like that.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: You see? He’s dancing rings around you already.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Just watch out for Mr Twinkle Toes, yeah?

I don’t care about Ozzy

PLAYER_SERIOUS: I don’t really care about Ozzy.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: That’s music to my ears, {0}.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Anyway, I’ll keep you out of our twin-tornado.

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: I just…

MARSHALL_IDLE: I don’t want you to get burnt like I did.

MARSHALL_IDLE: But let’s forget about Ozzy.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Right now, I’m just excited to get to know you better.

PLAYER_IDLE: You are?

Marshall gives you a sexy grin.

Suddenly, you hear a ping!

PLAYER_SURPRISED: I got a text!

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Saved by the bell.

Marshall shouts over to the Casa boys.

MARSHALL_SURPRISED: Oi! Boys, {0}’s got a cheeky text!

HAMISH_HAPPY: Get innn! Love me a cheeky text!

ANDY_HAPPY: Go on, let’s hear it, {0}.

You clear your throat and announce the text for all the boys to hear.

LITEXT: Islanders, call your lawyers! You’ve been summoned to the Guilty Secrets Challenge. It’s truth time! {0}SexyJudge {1}Pro-Bono

FRANCIS_HAPPY: Drinking the old truth serum! Sounds liberating!

ANDY_FLIRTY: I solemnly swear to speak the truth and nothing but the truth.

HAMISH_HAPPY: Might need you to look through my briefs beforehand, {0}.

Hamish looks to the guys for reactions. Francis rolls his eyes.

FRANCIS_EMBARRASSED: Easy there, brother. No one wants to see those briefs.

HAMISH_HAPPY: I would heartily refute that, Francis.

ANDY_HAPPY: If I were on a jury I’d find you guilty of being criminally gorgeous, {0}.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Alright boys, let’s save it for the challenge!

PLAYER_FLIRTY: See you all in court.

ANDY_FLIRTY: Let’s go!

Everyone heads over to the Firepit, ready to face the jury!

You gather with the Casa boys at the Firepit to find a lectern and a judge mallet.

PLAYER_HAPPY: Wow! This is like a proper court!

ANDY_IDLE: Straight from the movies.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Urrmmm… We don’t have to admit everything, do we?

ANDY_HAPPY: I’m sure we’d be here all night if you did, Hamish.

FRANCIS_HAPPY: Honesty is the best policy, hombres. No one’s here to judge.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: I sure will.

Your phone pings!

PLAYER_SURPRISED: I’ve got a text, boys!

LITEXT: Islanders, welcome to Guilty Secrets! {0} will be reading out secrets from the selection of cards. She’ll then guess which boy the secret’s about.

LITEXT: Everytime you guess a boy, you can also give them a kiss. {0}Courting {1}OrderOrder

PLAYER_HAPPY: Let’s hear all your guilty secrets then, boys!

PLAYER_FLIRTY: You guys ready?

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Born ready.

You pick a card and read it out.

PLAYER_IDLE: Which boy was kicked out of school for releasing the class rabbit?

You have a quick think before you make your decision.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I think it was…

Andy

PLAYER_IDLE: Andy!

Snog Andy!

You swagger over to Andy before putting your arms around his neck and giving him a memorable, sexy snog.

It’s a passionate, you-and-me-against-the-world kind of kiss and seems to last for a small eternity.

Andy reciprocates, kissing you back as his strong hands hold your waist.

Eventually, you break away and both open your eyes.

ANDY_FLIRTY: Freeing that class rabbit was so worth it.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: So it was you?

ANDY_FLIRTY: Guilty as charged.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I got it right!

Give him a cheek kiss

You swagger over to Andy before placing your lips on his cheek and giving him a quick cheek kiss.

ANDY_FLIRTY: I’m so glad I freed that class rabbit.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: So it was you?

ANDY_FLIRTY: Guilty as charged.

PLAYER_HAPPY: I got it right.

Act casual

PLAYER_IDLE: Andy? Was it you?

ANDY_FLIRTY: Guilty as charged.

PLAYER_IDLE: Francis!

Snog Francis!

You swagger over to Francis before putting your arms around his neck and giving him a memorable, sexy snog.

It’s a passionate, intense, you-and-me-against-the-world kind of kiss and seems to last for a small eternity.

Francis reciprocates, kissing you back as his strong hands hold your waist.

Eventually, you break away and both open your eyes.

FRANCIS_FLIRTY: Thanks for that, {0}.

FRANCIS_EMBARRASSED: But it wasn’t me who freed the class rabbit.

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: That would be me.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Andy! It was you!?

Give him a cheek kiss

You swagger over to Francis before placing your lips on his cheek and giving him a quick cheek kiss.

FRANCIS_FLIRTY: Thanks for that, {0}.

FRANCIS_EMBARRASSED: But that wasn’t me who freed the class rabbit.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Andy! It was you!?

FRANCIS_EMBARRASSED: But nope, not me.

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: That would be me, {0}

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Andy! It was you!?

Hamish

PLAYER_IDLE: Hamish!

Snog Hamish!

You swagger over to Hamish before putting your arms around his neck and move in for a snog.

Hamish reciprocates, but you’re on different wavelengths and you bump noses before your lips meet.

You break away, slightly awkward.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: We’re off to a good start, {0}.

HAMISH_IDLE: But I didn’t free the class rabbit.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: I’m actually very allergic to animal fur.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Like really bad. I come out in a terrible rash.

FRANCIS_IDLE: You tried fresh aloe vera, dude?

HAMISH_SERIOUS: I’ve tried everything. Dude.

ANDY_HAPPY: It was me who freed the class rabbit.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Andy! It was you!?

Give him a cheek kiss

You swagger over to Hamish before placing your lips on his cheek and giving him a quick cheek kiss.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Andy! It was you!?

Act casual

PLAYER_IDLE: Hamish? Was it you?

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Heck, no.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: I would never touch a rabbit. I’m allergic to animal fur.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Like really bad. I come out in a terrible rash.

FRANCIS_IDLE: You tried fresh aloe vera, dude?

HAMISH_SERIOUS: I’ve tried everything. Dude.

ANDY_HAPPY: It was me who freed the class rabbit.

Marshall

PLAYER_IDLE: Marshall!

Snog Marshall!

You swagger over to Marshall before putting your arms around his neck and giving him a memorable, sexy snog.

It’s a passionate, intense, you-and-me-against-the-world kind of kiss and seems to last for a small eternity.

Marshall reciprocates, kissing you back as his strong hands hold your waist.

Eventually, you break away and both open your eyes.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: You taste good, {0}.

MARSHALL_IDLE: But I didn’t free the class rabbit.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: I was most likely being a little legend in the back row.

ANDY_HAPPY: It was me who freed the class rabbit.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Andy! It was you!?

ANDY_IDLE: Guilty as charged.

HAMISH_IDLE: What you doing freeing class rabbits, Andy?

ANDY_IDLE: I just didn’t like seeing that little guy in a small cage.

ANDY_HAPPY: I wanted to give him a better life, so I set him free. No regrets.

HAMISH_HAPPY: The only rabbit I’m keen on is rabbit stew.

FRANCIS_ANGRY: Keep that to yourself, Hamish. Some of us are vegan.

HAMISH_HAPPY: It’s delish though.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Let’s move on from rampant rabbits shall we?

PLAYER_IDLE: Good idea.

You pick another card and read it out.

PLAYER_IDLE: Which boy accidentally arranged to meet two dates at the same time?

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: Ouch…

HAMISH_FLIRTY: Legend!

You mull over for a second before you guess.

PLAYER_SERIOUS: I think the boy is…

Andy

PLAYER_IDLE: Andy!

Smooch Andy!

You strut towards Andy, pulling him towards for a steamy smooch session.

Andy smiles and kisses you back. You both melt into each other. For a hot minute, it feels like it’s only you two in the world.

Finally, you both step away. Andy smiles at you.

ANDY_HAPPY: Damn, you’re a good kisser.

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: But I hope you chose me only because you wanted a kiss.

ANDY_IDLE: I’d never book two dates at the same time.

ANDY_HAPPY: I have something called a diary!

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Alright, I confess. It was an honest mistake!

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Marshall, it was you?

Shoot him evils

You look Andy up and down, then shoot him evils.

PLAYER_ANGRY: Not cool, Andy. Heard of a calendar?

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: That wasn’t me. I would never book two dates at the same time.

ANDY_HAPPY: That’s not my style.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Alright, I confess. It was an honest mistake!

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Marshall, it was you!

Act casual

PLAYER_IDLE: Did you do it?

ANDY_HAPPY: Definitely not!

ANDY_IDLE: That’s not my style.

ANDY_FLIRTY: I’m into monogamy.

Shoot him evils

PLAYER_SURPRISED: Marshall, it was you!

Hamish

PLAYER_IDLE: Hamish!

Smooch Hamish!

You strut towards Hamish, pulling him towards you for a steamy smooch session.

Hamish smiles and kisses you back briefly before wrapping it up.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Guess I just got a free kiss.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: This one wasn’t me.

HAMISH_IDLE: I’m one organized estate agent.

HAMISH_HAPPY: My Dad didn’t get me a monogrammed diary for nothing.

HAMISH_FLIRTY: Thanks for the kisseys, though.

Smooch Marshall!

You strut towards Marshall, pulling him towards you to begin a steamy smooch session.

Marshall smiles and kisses you back. You both melt into each other. For a hot minute, it feels like it’s only you two in the world.

Finally, you both step away. Marshall tucks some hair behind your ear and winks.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Damn, you’re a good kisser.

MARSHALL_EMBARRASSED: And you’re right, it was me.

MARSHALL_IDLE: I accidentally arranged to meet two dates at the same time.

PLAYER_FLIRTY: I knew it.

Shoot him evils

You look Marshall up and down, then shoot him evils.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Cuff me.

FRANCIS_HAPPY: To jail with you, Marshall.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Let me make one objection.

HAMISH_HAPPY: Ooooh, he’s making an objection!

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: I’ll have you know that I can sustain an objection for almost four hours.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: You can?

MARSHALL_HAPPY: But cards on the table, it was just an honest mistake.

MARSHALL_IDLE: Wires were crossed, you know the drill.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Guess that’s what happens when you live life in the fast lane.

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: Is that right?

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Worked out pretty well in the end, though.

PLAYER_IDLE: How so?

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Let’s just say, we ended up having this wild threesome.

FRANCIS_FLIRTY: Sounds sensual.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Oh, it was.

That’s hot!

PLAYER_FLIRTY: Sounds hot, Marshall.

MARSHALL_IDLE: We showed each other a good time.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: Multi-tasking has always been my strong suit.

Too much information!

PLAYER_EMBARRASSED: Too much information there, Marshall.

ANDY_IDLE: Yeah, maybe just write that one down.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: I don’t need to write it down.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: It’s all in here.

He points to his head and chuckles.

MARSHALL_IDLE: They were amazing women. We’re still good mates.

PLAYER_IDLE: Alright, moving on.

ANDY_HAPPY: Yeah.

So not my style

PLAYER_SERIOUS: That’s sooo not my style.

MARSHALL_HAPPY: Lucky for you, that was a long time ago.

MARSHALL_FLIRTY: I’m a good boy now.

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: Sure.

ANDY_IDLE: As much as I love hearing about Marshall’s spontaneous threesome.

ANDY_HAPPY: Shall we get on with the game?

PLAYER_HAPPY: Let’s do it.

Phwoar! Anyone else getting hot under the collar on all this threesome chat? No? Just me?

NARRATOR: Steaming ahead then… more guilty secrets emerged!

NARRATOR: It seems Francis still believes in Santa and Andy once dated a girl that preferred his dog to him.

NARRATOR: Oh, Hamish also once donated all his commission to charity to impress a girl on a first date. Smooth move, Hamish.

NARRATOR: I personally like to mention global warming on my first dates. It's a huge icebreaker. And sets a really fun mood.

As the game continues, you pick out another saucy secret.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Which I’ve also done.

PLAYER_SURPRISED: You’ve cheated in the past too.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Only once... Or was it twice?

ANDY_EMBARRASSED: Explain yourself, Hamish.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: The cheating thing or the rent thing?

FRANCIS_SERIOUS: Let’s stick to your Dad’s house for now.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Fiiiiine.

HAMISH_IDLE: It was when I was still at school and living at home.

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Dad went on this massive business trip and I realised I’d have the place to myself.

HAMISH_IDLE: Thought I’d make some extra pocket money renting it out while he was away.

PLAYER_IDLE: And where did you plan to stay?

HAMISH_HAPPY: At my mate’s pad down the road.

HAMISH_FLIRTY: Plus, I wanted a dry run at being an estate agent.

PLAYER_IDLE: So what happened?

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Dad saw the advert online and flipped his literal lid.

HAMISH_SAD: Then I wasn't allowed to go to any parties for a month. Proper tough.

ANDY_HAPPY: Sounds like it.

HAMISH_SAD: I hired a professional photographer and everything!

HAMISH_EMBARRASSED: Anyway, that’s in the past now.

NO!!!! WHEN WILL VEGETTA CATCH A FRICKIN BREAK, LOLITO’S THE SAME AS RUBIUS

NOBODY IN THIS FRICKIN SERIES IS LOYAL

Noooooo noooo poor Vegetta oh no :((((

Vegetta: Rubius just sabotaged the wedding because he's in love with Lolito! And I didn't want the open relationship, they're valid, but not for me! I love that in the midst of heartbreak he’s still like “that’s valid” oh my gosh

Luzu is badmouthing Rubius and Rubius just said “Betrayal? You’re one to talk, didn’t you betray Quackity?” DANG

Rubius and Lolito got married 💀💀💀 Our worst fear became true

Luzu: How can you celebrating knowing what you did to Vegetta? With everything Vegetta is going through? HELL YEAH TELL EM OFF!!! YOU”RE THE ONLY VALID ONE IN THIS ROOM

Partying at Vegetta’s house is always a tradition but this is the WORST time to have it AGH

Luzu: I'll respect my friend forever, and his dignity. They stole his bride, his wedding and his house. That bear is laughing at Vegetta. But he's not gonna laugh for long. The town hall won't accept manipulation. I love Luzu so frickin much. He’s the only one who’s loyal to Vegetta, sobs

Gosh Vegetta’s house is gorgeous

Oh no Luzu noticing the Rubegetta painting in Vegetta’s house

Vegetta: Leave me alone. I want to cry NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Man Rubius is the EPITOME of “If you can’t be with me you can’t be with anyone” except he’s LITERALLY the reason they aren’t together. This is all Rubius’ fault.

WTF IS THAT POTATO

Wait the machine said Luzu was lying when Rubius asked if his name was Luzu. Does this confirm that uzuL or Evil Luzu is in charge right now?? That would actually be the best case scenario because that would explain why Luzu’s being so contradictory

Rubius: Is there someone in Karmaland you love? Luzu: No Machine: WRONG WE WIN THESE

Rubius: Are you planning something deeper and darker than being just the mayor? Luzu: No Machine: TRUE

Rubius: Did you commit voter fraud? Luzu: No Machine: TRUE LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!

LMAO SAPO PETA OUTING LUZU FOR RIGGING THE MACHINE

Fargan’s the only person there who still supports Luzu, FARGAN….HE CLOSED YOUR FIANCE’S CHURCH….

Fargan: Rubius needs to be taken down Luzu: And Vegetta should be the judge OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Gosh I love the music Luzu is playing I wish I knew what that was

Rubius: Is there someone you love? Alexby: Yes. It’s a love I carry in secret Weeps

Rubius Gaslighting so hard rn

Rubius, lying: I was wrong, you didn’t do anything bad. Luzu: If you want my trust, arrest Quackity and put him in jail. FRICK

FRICK!!! RUBIUS AGREED

Luzu: The truth, Rubius, I am a man of action and not of words YEAH. WE’RE WELL AWARE

Rubius: Congrats on the mayoral position Luzu: And congrats on your wedding I can just imagine them looking each other dead in the eye as they shake each other’s hands trying to break the other person’s fingers

Luzu: I don’t believe a word he said Frick. So Rubius is going to have to tell Quackity the plan. Or will he? Or will he not tell Quackity so it seems more believable? FRICK

Luzu: I trust no one now :( Just like the beginning of K5… “The only word you can trust is mine”

Luzu, to Sapo Peta: I didn't feel good today. I don't know if you can notice my anxiety, but I hated seeing my friend suffer at the wedding. AGH!!! THE LUZU VEGETTA FRIENDSHIP MAKES MY HEART ACHE!!!!!

Rubius said to chat he’s having a better time with his role now in Karmaland but also. King you’re breaking all of our hearts

Luzu asked Sapo Peta to be his unofficial advisor, thank goodness he’s asking the one mentally stable person in Karmaland

Sapo Peta: I’m not sure what's wrong or right anymore. Maybe you should respect your own judgment, because you're looking for the best outcome for Karmaland.

AghhhHHH

So Rubius left the server, as Lolito's new husband and said he’d get together with Alexby to plan to overthrow Luzu. And SapoPeta will act as a double agent but on Rubius's side. Bruh

Luzu: I’m afraid I won’t be able to make the right decisions in the future Bestie you haven’t made the right decisions in the PRESENT

Rubius to chat: Oh I wasn’t planning on marrying Lolito that was completely improvised WE SHOULDN”T HAVE JOKED ABOUT IT

Oh frick someone said “What if Lolito pulls a Rubius and gets a divorce so he can get all his stuff back?” and I’m like OH FRICK. KARMA

WAIT FARGAN CAUGHT THE BRIDAL BOUQUET?? I DIDNT NOTICE THAT….the only highlights from today’s tragedies was Luzu and Vegetta’s friendship and Fargexby

Sapo Peta: Luzu really seems like a good person, but power... power corrupts. Very few who are in power have had an infinite reign. Human beings are not capable of having that much power. What is good and what is evil? I love you Sapo Peta :(

Thinking about Sapo Peta’s friendship with Luzu and these tweets killed me :(

Oh frick he’s playing the background sad opening music from Beauty and the Beast that’s some of my fave music

Sapo Peta: As you can see, I am a very neutral person, I don't marry anyone. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH

Sapo Peta: If Quackity commits evil, it's because Quackity has an evil side and that can be chosen. I cannot defend a person who commits terrorism, any more than I could with a person who rigs the elections. Sapo Peta really said “Neither of these guys are valid”

WELP.

THE ONLY WINNERS TODAY WERE THE FARGEXBY NATION AND THE LUZUGETTA FOLKS

happiness, briss/bords

married agents universe.

“Fun fact: over the last couple of months, every time a friend of mine or a member of my family would ask me how the writing of my vows was going, they would look at me very warily after I answered that everything was going according to plan. Like no one would want to trust me with this, I really don’t understand why.”

The joke causes laughs to rise inside the room and Brendan takes a moment to survey the faces of the people he loves. His dad is looking very serious and his mom has her eyes bright, hands clutching her purse on her lap. Brendan doesn’t wink to them but he does smile extra hard before continuing.

“And I know no one worried about Thom because Thom is the one good with words in this relationship. It’s something that I won’t ever dispute but is still very funny to me because he could barely string together 5 words of English when we first met. Granted, he wasn’t even a teenager and my French was even worse but I won’t forget. I’m pretty sure I already found his accent cute back then, so.”

Another laugh among the audience, softer this time, accompanied by a choral of aws. Thom’s shaking his head slowly, smile too high on his cheeks. Brendan squeezes their hands where their fingers are laced together in between them. He then takes a deep breath, wills his brain to focus on the remainder of his speech.

“Anyway, back to the true matter at hand here. Truth be told, I initially wasn’t sure which direction to go with. I googled the Top 10 pieces of advice on how to write the perfect wedding vows but I think the only good thing I got from the internet was Trust yourself with your words. I know people love to talk about first times; first time they met their loved one, first kiss, the moment they realized they were in love. I barely remember the first time I met Thom because we were still kids. Our first kiss was messy and I can’t pinpoint the exact moment I knew I was in love with him because do you really expect dumb 20 years old hockey players to understand anything about feelings? Yeah, I know. But even though it may sound like I’m painting a terrible picture out here, I swear I wouldn’t have it any other way because we made it work our way, which made it just perfect. It’s never been easy because I’m probably the last guy someone would pick to have a long-distance relationship with but we figured it out, downloaded the apps, set the Skype dates and the calls and the stupid postcards now hanging on our fridge or in our offices. There were a lot of misses and fights and sad parts but I never doubted we would make it. I loved him way too hard for this to fail. And I’m pretty sure the feeling was mutual.”

It’s Thom’s turn to clamp down on his palms, hard. The light from above is making his eyes shine and Thom said he would kill Brendan if he made him cry at the altar but it’s not Brendan’s fault if Thom is a sentimental guy and he’s sure he can find a more fitting and agreeable punishment if he does break the promise that he didn’t really make (sorry babe, I know you, can’t bet against myself there).

“We could have gotten married so much sooner. The fact that I played in Las Vegas for several years and never got Elvis to tie us together is an honest miracle that my Dad probably prayed for every single day I was living there.”

This time, Brendan can identify Matty’s big booming laugh and he allows himself a glance at the UMich section of the room. Owen towering over everyone even while seated, Kent tucked by his side, Trusc with the biggest smile, everyone else looking so happy to be here.

Thom’s thumb rubs over his knuckles and Brendan can feel his heart beating really hard behind his ribcage. Maybe just maybe Brendan is starting to feel emotional too.

“It took the end of our careers to finally be able to settle together in the same city and working with Thom over the last two years is the best thing I could have asked for in my retirement. We never needed rings for Thom to call me his and vice-versa but considering he’s been the main reason for my happiness over the last two decades, I truly can’t wait to be able to call him my husband.”

send me a word + a pairing and I'll write a little something.

#brendan brisson #thomas bordeleau #1934 #hockey rpf #prompt fill #1934 married agents #very sorry about the delay #didn't mean to write 800 sappy words but here we go #i love this universe very dearly #maybe not very smart of me to ask for more when i already have a couple to do but oops #i managed to tackle all the previous meaningful gestures asks so

Chapter 4

hi, chat!

The chapter image kind of snuck up on me and I didn't snag a picture in time, so I took a screenshot of a playthrough and edited it 😬

This post is going to be much shorter than the last, hallelujah!

Hey, Mewtwo! What's up... Youtwo?

Yeah idk

Okay so based on past observations, it seems that dialogue text refers to him as "Lumineontwo" but not his name tag. I still have no idea why this would be the case. Any thoughts?

You know, I just realized... The fact that Magby - a baby Pokémon incapable of breeding - is the father to a grown-up Clefable brings up... waaaay too many uncomfortable questions. Unless Clefable is adopted? But even then... Yeah, I got nothing.

HE ANGY!! >:l

My god, I could have not picked a better replacement for Loudred 😂

Just throwing this in here to show that the randomizer doesn't even touch the sentry minigame. Which, like with the art, I totally get. That would get way too messy.

Back in the day, I used to be able to identify most footprints before the timer lost any bars. I've grown a little rusty since then; I lost my two strikes this time.

But I still did a "perfect" job, so we got the usual rewards from Tropius: a Joy Seed, a Ginseng, and a Life Seed. That surprised me a little, as I expected the items to be randomized.

The next day, I noticed the Outlaw Board is still unavailable. I guess maybe those jobs are too difficult to randomize? I'm fine with that since trying to do five jobs in Everlasting Bolt-hole was... yikes.

The recycling shop in the soon-to-be Spinda Rotom cafe will be run by Aerodactyl and Crawdaunt! That's... something!

I’m still begging someone to make art of this. Seriously, I will pay you. Like $5. (I’m thinking of a sketch.) DM me on my main if you’re interested.

While prepping for the day, we ran into Team AWD! Or as I like to call them, Team Tropical:

*gasps* Tropius leads a double life?! How scandalous!!

Thankfully, the stretched sssss makes it obvious who’s who. Also Lanturn’s icon is so cute what the heck.

I remembered picking up a Seed Flare TM a while back and seeing that Teresa can learn it. It only has 5 PP but it’s pretty strong and does damage all around the user. So, goodbye, Switcheroo!

And the TM didn’t break either! Another mod added to the randomizer, I presume. It was a pleasant surprise nonetheless!

Remember that weird Crucial Estate dungeon that popped up out of the blue? Well, I decided to go in and check it out. Intuition told me to check the mission objectives and see if I could garner any insight.

Ohhhhhhh... that makes sense.

The enemies were pretty strong- they easily had over 80 HP. I gave it a few attempts but it was basically a coin flip whether I survived the first floor or not. A challenge for another day, I suppose.

Bonus: Turns out Run Away is useful for something after all!

After one of my resets, I noticed the bedroom changed from Whimsical Furnace...? I have no idea why 🤷‍♀️

I don’t have much to share about the jobs that took me several tries to do but I did have one moment that nearly gave me a heart attack:

See that explosion trap in the upper left? See how it’s placed right next to the Kecleon Shop?

Yeah so I stepped on the trap, blew up two of his items, and started panicking because I assumed Kecleon would call me a thief (consumption without payment, after all) and start beating us up. I tentatively took us down that corridor and... nothing. What you can’t see in that image is my face of utter relief 😅

Oh and Andrea learned Smokescreen! It was a tough choice, but I ditched Mirror Move since it hasn’t been super useful thus far. The Whiffer status is SUPER OP though, so I have a feeling it’ll save our butts in the future.

If you made it this far, thanks for reading 😊 I heard you ordered the Chapter 5: (Insert nonsensical title here) post, so that’s coming right up! (Might take me a bit though.)

#pokemon mystery dungeon #pmd explorers #randomizer #chapter 4 #thank god this one was so short after all the trouble chapter 3 gave me #also apparently there's a new post editor on desktop but it ALSO has a 10 image limit #crossing my fingers the default sticks around for a long while

The Day We Lost Our Paradise (Blixer’s Backstory)

(Well… it’s finally time

Here it is, Blixer’s backstory.

I have been DYING to talk about this for forever now, and today is the day!

This is the first part (other then Annhil’s, which will be one of the last despite it being the first timeline wise-) of how Paradise became anything but a Paradise, enjoy the angst!)

It was a bright sunny day, that Blixer was planning on spending in bed.

Too hot to move was his excuse.

… but unfortunately for the preteen someone pulled him out of bed, making him yelp as he fell to the floor with a clunk.

He glared looking to the culprit, his older brother Coalesce.

“You fucking suck.”

“Mhm, get your ass up mom made breakfast.”

He rolled his eyes, getting off the floor. “Yeah yeah get out-“ the eldest left Blixer to get ready, who put on his favorite baseball shirt and old tennis shoes.

He had better ones but he was attached to this pair deeply.

Mainly cause it was his friend’s first gift to him-

He slid down the railing grinning as his mother yelled at him not to do that.

“Sorryy-“ he said (he wasn’t sorry at all) jumping into the chair.

“Good morning sweetie.” A middle aged woman said running her fingers through his messy hair.

Her look was foggy, his memories falling to put together the patches of her face.

He swatted her away, thanking her for the food eating the sweet pancakes.

She smiled, going back to doing the dishes.

“What you going to do today Blix dear?”

“Going to the park with some friends. We’re gonna play some baseball.” He said chomping the last pancake quickly.

“Sounds fun, say hello to Nova for me!”

He gave a thumbs up quickly running out the door. Well least his brother had his back in making him get up to do things. He wasss gonna cancel but hey he was already up.

He walked through the streets waving to shapes as he passed by them. He looked to the park, taking a deep sniff of the smell of pine and freshly cut grass.

Call him weird, he doesn’t care.

He grinned seeing the others up ahead, waving to the 3.

Nova, his previous rival

Veela, the newest to their weird group

And

Nock, Veela’s boyfriend and his first real friend.

They all waved back, glad to see him as he hurried over

“Heya guys, we practicing for tryouts still?”

“No way in hell! It’s way too hot.” Nock inquired, which Blixer agreed to.

“Yeah honestly, have to agree.”

“We were all just gonna search for a lake to chill out in the woods! Sound good?” Asked Veela, holding a bag, most likely containing towels and sun lotion.

“Sounds great!” Blixer said excitedly, them all beginning to walk.

“Your hair’s messier then usual. Did you get caught in a hurricane?” Teased Nova, to which he rolled his eyes.

“No casanova, I didn’t.”

She snickered and smirked to the nickname. “What, jealous I have more of a men’s build than you?”

“Hah! Bitch you wish!”

The other two rolled their eyes at their bickering, as slowly they found a lake. “Perfect!” “… Mayybbe we should’ve gotten bathing suits-“ Nock acquired, to which Blixer slapped his back.

“Nonsense! We got towels and surely will be dried by the sun!”

Nock slapped him back playfully. “Ah fuck off still should’ve-“ Nova snickered at them, helping Veela set out the towel. The boys took off their shirts, Nova taking off her bandana careful placing it in the bag as Veela only put her legs in the water for now.

Blixer hated how every time Nova showed her arms he had trouble looking away.

She looked so pretty, and strong. He just told himself it was him admiring her muscles, she worked hard for them after all.

“Take a picture kitty, it’ll last longer.” He heard a tease, making his cheeks heat up lightly.

“S-Shuttup I wasn’t looking at you!”

She only smirked, though sparing him dropping it. The other three jumped into the water, Veela yelling at them as they all burst into laughter.

They hadn’t a clue how long they were out there for, all they knew was that their clothes were sticking to them uncomfortably and Veela was lightly sunburnt, somehow-

“Maaybbe if you put on enough sun lotion you would’ve been fine Vee.” She teased, putting on her bandana as the other girl huffed.

Nock snuggled against her, her smiling nuzzling his cheek.

Blixer made a fake gagging noise which got a laugh out of Nova.

“YOUR just jealous you don’t have such a wonderful lover by your side.” Nock said smugly, making Veela lightly blush. He only rolled his eyes in return, getting up

“Cmon we’re all dried, let’s get out of here.” They all agreed packing up the stuff and beginning to walk back to town, them all calm and happy.

“Think, in just 4 years you’ll be a King…” Nova said to Nock, who nodded quietly.

“It’s… a bit of a different thought than I’m used to thinking…” “Why? We all know you’ll be a great king!” Blixer cheerfully said, everyone agreeing to that, making the demon smile. “Aw, don’t get sappy on me now-“ They all laughed to that, seeing the tops of buildings in view.

They smiled, about to walk into the town…

Then Blixer smelled something

“… g… guys?-“

“N-No I, I smell it too-“ Nock agreed, the girls confused trying to smell what they were referring to. … then once they understood it they froze.

“N-No-“

“Is- is that-“

“Smoke.”

They ran quickly towards the town.

“No no no!”

~~~~~

“No NO NO NO-“

Blixer said clutching his head

“StoprememberingStoprememberingStoprememberingStopremembering-“

He mumbled desperately over and over squeezing his head trying to squeeze the memories shut almost.

They only returned twice as strong.

~~~~

The town was on fire. Dead bodies littered the ground, almost all of them corrupteds with a few pures.

The kids all almost threw up, but instead ran in opposite directions to quickly go search for their families. Blixer tried desperately to ignore the sounds of gunshots and screams from around him, only running to his house.

He burst into it, not seeing fire thank god, and hurrying around.

“MOM! COALESCE!” He screamed loudly quickly searching around. The place was completely trashed, which just made him search quicker and harder. “JUST FUCKING ANSWER PLEASE!” He called out, more scared then he had ever been in his life “… B… li… x… er..?” He heard a soft female voice call out, him quickly going to it.

He froze though once he saw the sight.

His mother, had about 3 bullets through her chest, bleeding nonstop as blood trickled down her mouth.

“… M… Mo… m…? N-No I-“

She shushed him weakly, giving a bloody smile in return.

He collapsed, slowly walking on his knees to her, looking around.

“H-Hold on-“ he quickly grabbed bandages trying to tightly wrap her up,

“Sweetie… there’s no u-use…” She said weakly, softly touching his cheek.

Tears ran down his cheeks as he quickly shook his head

“N-No- your, your gonna be o-ok- I-I-“ she weakly hummed to him, hugging him

He sobbed endlessly, curling up into her.

“N… Not… your… fault, d-dear-

… l… love, y… ou…….”

He heard a deep exhale, and began to hyperventilate.

“N-N-N-No no no no- m-m-mom please g-god-“ he choked out shaking her trying to get her breathing again.

He must’ve tried for hours… before he realized it was hopeless.

He failed.

He failed his family… his mother had died cause he wasn’t fast enough to get here in time…

“I-I-I’m sorry… I… love-“ he burst into more sobs curling up to her

He must’ve laid there for hours, his tears like a waterfall, before turning into a weak trickle.

He didn’t even care as he heard the others hurry up, gasping in horror.

Their voices were so far away as he felt Nova’s strong arms wrap around him whispering things, most likely assurances.

He barely noticed as he buried his face into her chest, shaking and having trouble breathing.

He didn’t notice as he was picked up, brought away from the danger, and the bloody mess that used to be his mother.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Blixer looked at the sword in his hands, tears streaming down his face.

Remembering everything, was like hell to him.

Something his mind never stopped it’s constant bloody reminders.

His ear ached, as if to remind him of what happened.

His friend Nock grew colder then he’d ever believed he’d see, as his crowning was never realized. He had to become king in a far off land, filled with horrors, and struggling to pick up the pieces of their town, and the few that remained.

Blixer searched endlessly for his older brother, and once he found him he honestly half wished he hadn’t…

~~~~~~

Blixer, holding his M4A1 in hand, stepped up to his old home, looking around.

His mother’s body was gone, till he found her buried in the back yard, in a crudely dug grave.

The place seemed to have been inhabited, making him angry.

Those pures took their land, then they take his home??

He would rip their land back as soon as he could.

He shook his head, heading to the two Treeangles staying in the shadows.

He wished to see them before he left once again.

He heard chanting and voices, peering to the hill.

He froze

A few corrupted were tied up, in front of a firing squad, as a Pure mage was chanting and using magic…..

On Corrupten’s tree.

He was frozen in horror, before looking down at the corrupteds, and noticing he recognized a few

… One making his blood run cold.

In front of him was his brother.

They were going to kill him.

“STOP!!” He screamed hurrying over, shooting his rifle.

A shield stopped the bullets going through, the Pures only smirking at the sign.

“Alright men! Take your aim!” The general yelled, as soldiers did so,

They were going to kill him right in front-

He hit the shield with everything he had in him, yelling slurs at them.

He looked at his brother, the tears in both of their eyes falling slowly to the ground, like time itself had stopped.

He saw his face go from one of fear, to a weak smile of contentment .

He saw his mouth form words, that he just barely caught.

‘L-o-v-e y-o-u

D-o-n-t e-v-e-r g-i-v-e u-p’

“COALESCE!!” Blixer screamed as the firing squad shot, them all falling to the ground, blood falling out of their heads.

Anger and grief covered his senses of morality and sanity, busting down the forcefield.

… he saw the man snap the tree from the ground, as half of the wonderful diverse colors of Paradise disappeared, the tree snapping into 3 triangles.

He saw them laugh, as he felt he could almost hear cries of sorrow and pain.

Honestly, he can’t say he remembers much after that.

Just, the sounds of bones snapping, and screams before they were cut off.

Then, the feel of three pieces floating in his hands, as they shrunk to fit, and him picking up his brother’s body, making a promise to come back for the others as his feet walked back to camp.

When he came to, he felt… empty

He heard the cries of horror, anger, betrayal, disbelief, grief… and hopelessness as he showed the bodies, and the Treeangle pieces.

Those, monsters had torn out the tree of ONE OF THEIR GODS out of the ground.

They had killed innocent corrupteds… for what?!

Some bullshit about them being “superior”, despite the fact that they also killed some of the pures that lived with the corrupteds in Paradise?

Despite the fact that before everyone was welcome…

After the news was given, and Nock began gathering up war plans, filled with anger and hatred, and Blixer slipped away, feeling broken, empty and gone.

He sat on his bed, in the makeshift village they had made in the woods far from Paradise, looking at the blood on his hands feeling bile rise in his throat.

He heard the door open, and the boots walking over to him.

“… I… are you alright Blixkitty?” He heard a familiar voice say to him softly.

Usually he’d blush to the nickname, and scold her, but he was only quiet.

“…” Nova walked over to him, sitting on the bed next to him. “Blixer, nothing I say will make it better, I know that. But no matter what, I will always be there for you, alright…?”

He teared up, nodding and crying burying against her.

The now 16 year old held his, friend, crying into her chest. She lightly hummed, wishing she could do more for him.

But all Blixer needed right now, was to be in her arms.

~~~~

Tears ran down Blixer’s face as he struggled to breath.

He missed her.

He missed the old him.

He missed THEM…

…. Veela and Nova was dead, and Nock was now a monster. He wasn’t the best friend he could tell anything to.

He wasn't the man that stood up for him or called him stupid jokingly helping him get to his feet.

… He let hate get the best of him.

‘You aren’t much better off.’ The voices said, him quietly agreeing, looking at the cloth in his hands.

“… I… I-I’m sorry, my love… one day, one d-day Paradise will be ours… then I’ll be ready to return to you.” He whispered quietly, letting tears stream down his face.

One day….

One day he’d advenge them all.

~~~~

(*Sips Blixer’s tears*

Well uh, darkness is clear-

I want to be clear, this is NOT his entire backstory.

This is the main parts, I kept some parts out to be discovered in one, the ask book, two some oneshots (there’s a oneshot telling on how his arti became cracked out) and three, other’s backstories as well.

Another thing I want to make clear, how Nock looks when he’s young is different from his adult self (more then most people-) so this isnt his canon look in LLN-

Anyway, I feel so good finally getting this done you have no idea-

Hope you all enjoyed!)
