(Part 9)
The boys are finally in London!
Of course, Moran wouldn't be Moran if he didn't complain about Albert.
Moran: What kind of name is Albert anyways? Like, some kind of chocolate? The kind that’s made from almonds.
Tumblr media
(Look at him! So eager to make William and Louis laugh.)
Tumblr media
Louis is not impressed.
Tumblr media
William: Ah, Moran. Chocolate is made from cacao, not almonds.
(And neither is William, apparently.)
Moran’s reply to that is a play on words with the “cao” sound from “cacao” (sorry if I wrote it wrong) – “Ore no kao ga man’aka da.” (My face is completely red.
Tumblr media
It seems that kidnappings in the stage-verse are a lot more violent.
Tumblr media
Poor Louis is not having a good day.
Tumblr media
While I know that Moran said “Who would [kidnap William]?” because he’s worried, Albert appearing through two doors with light shining on him is hilarious, especially with the knowledge that the kidnapping was essentially planned out by William and Albert.
Tumblr media
I will say though, transitioning from the scene where Albert swears to go save William from the kidnappers to the flashback where Albert asks William to come with him, with Louis holding a knife at his back, is certainly a choice.
Tumblr media
And now switching to Louis asking William why Albert had them adopted, without a single line being spoken in the church flashback?
(Since William is kidnapped in current time, he is unconscious and tied to the chair, so it’s all Louis hours! I wonder if Louis is reflecting on his helplessness, from the moment Albert confronted his brother, to when his brother was injured by the OG Moriarty family, and to now, when he is kidnapped right in front of Louis.)
I find it interesting that they have William reply to Louis in this scene, especially since the previous one was silent. And William says, “People always use each other. Didn’t we use him too? Let’s wait a bit more. I already have an idea of what he wants from us.”
I feel like the script is making a reference to current time William and Albert using the kidnappers for their own ends by using this conversation from their childhood.
Tumblr media
William really looks the part of the damsel in distress here. I think it’s the wig?
Tumblr media
But not for long!
Villain monologues are now considered a bit of a trope. Usually, monologuing in front of someone who wants you harmed/dead isn’t a good idea, but William manages to make it work. The main kidnapper is immediately taken off guard when William explains that he sent his picture to them on purpose, as well as his plan of making members of the drug operation take him to them. The purpose of the monologue isn’t for William to show off – though it does achieve that – but is rather a way for William to buy time for the operatives outside, as demonstrated by the explosion when William put his foot down.
Tumblr media
What follows is a fight scene – first Moran on stage-level, then Albert on the upper level. Moran fights without holding back, be it with guns or fists, but Albert’s foray into violence is more restrained, even using precise movements even when not shooting with a rifle.
Tumblr media
And of course, William gets himself untied pretty quickly during all of this chaos.
Compared to Albert and Moran, I’d qualify William’s fighting style as more elegant, quick evasions and much weapon swinging – the kidnapper did not stand a chance.
Tumblr media
Albert, as he steals Moran’s kill: Good evening, Colonel Moran! It’s quite dangerous, isn’t it?
(His devil may care expression will never not be the death of me. No wonder Moran can’t stand him!)
Tumblr media
I do love Albert’s line here, about how much trouble he’s going to have, trying to explain that he only came to save his brother but ended up uncovering the opium operations the higher-ups were stalling on. Ah, what to do, what to do?
Tumblr media
And this shot of the founding of MI6.  Congratulations on your promotion, Albert!
Tumblr media
Gleeful Albert will never not be a favorite of mine.
William's actor's soft laughter also gets me every time. Of all the different adaptations, I think this might just be the cutest William for his laughter alone.
Tumblr media
Another flashback, this time right after the Moriarthree congratulate each other on obtaining MI6 and decide to have a family dinner together.
This flashback is of our William confronting OG William and Lady Moriarty who were trying to frame the adopted boys of thievery.
The yellow light is Lady Moriarty and, as established previously, the purple one is OG William.
There is a small moment where the stage becomes black, save for a spotlight on Albert as he asks if William could kill people for his ideals. The lighting then reverts to that of the image above and William announces the Moriarty’s punishment.
The murders are shown by shadows, which also serves as a reminder that they were children when they committed this murder. The silhouettes of the shadows are accurate – three boys and a woman – and are a better way of highlighting the Moriarthree’s youth than simply having the adult actors speak out the lines of their child counterparts.
Also, this may be the most explicit rendition of this particular murder, as the manga only showed parts of what happened, and the anime cut out Lady Moriarty’s presence in the room that night.
Although we do not get to see more of that night as of yet, Louis and Albert talking about having the Moriarthree’s first family dinner in a while is a good choice of an introductory dialogue to the event that truly created their familial bond.
End of the Case of the Noble Kidnapping!

Nicole Beharie💜
Nicole Beharie Swears By This Ingredient To Nourish Her Curls — And She Grows It Herself
BY BLAKE NEWBY
It’s not often that that the intersection of protective styling and relaxed hair is discussed, but for actress Nicole Beharie, star of Sleepy Hollow, Miss Juneteenth, and Black Mirror, it’s exactly what defined her childhood. “I remember back in the day when I wore braids and twists and people would make comments about it being nappy,” Beharie tells TZR. “My mother's Jamaican and people used to think that it was like an immigrant thing.” And while Beharie’s mother instilled in her the beauty and versatility of protective styling, she didn’t always embrace those options with her own hair. “My hair was actually relaxed growing up because my mom found my hair to be more manageable with it,” she says. “But even though I had a relaxer, I never wore it straight.”
At 16, Beharie went off to art school and decided to give her natural hair a try, but it wasn’t an easy transition. “I remember a friend of mine was like, ‘what are you doing?’ because I didn’t know what to do with my hair,” she says. “So I cut it off. But the boys in my class talked about [it] and teased me and it kind of scarred me. After that, I started wearing twists and stretching my texture. The rest is history.”
And while Beharie has come a long way from toiling with her texture, her relationship with her hair continues to evolve. Find out more about her journey ahead.
Have you ever felt that as a Black woman in the industry you had to wear your hair a certain way?
“I think more so in the beginning, but things have really changed in the last five years. There were times when I would have wigs or weaves that would more reflect my real hair texture, and people behind the scenes would say ‘Why are you wearing this? You need a better texture.’ I was like, excuse me, but this is my texture. I've heard some things on set that were awful but they would never say it now because the awareness has shifted. I will say I don't judge characters [for their hair choices], however.
“So some with characters — for example there's a character I'm working on now — I feel like she would have her hair straightened because of the way that she moves in the world and the way that she sees herself, you know what I mean? So it's fun to switch it up and I'm glad I have wigs. Almost anytime you’ve seen my hair straight on screen, it’s a wig. The most I’ll do to my own hair is maybe straighten my edges.
Tumblr media
“The narrative around natural hair has really changed even beyond just entertainment, though. I was walking down the street in Atlanta and there was a young girl who had her hair in twists and you could tell it was her natural hair. She looked so cute and confident and you could tell the boys were checking her out. Growing up, it was the girls with straight hair down their back getting that attention.”
And just like you said, you change your hair on set, but you change your hair in real life, too. What’s that experience like for you?
“Oh y'all haven't even seen half of the pictures of the hairstyles I’ve tried. Back in the day I would just go to my braider in Brooklyn with pictures from Eritrean and Ethiopian women with these beautiful braiding patterns. I used to have the most beautiful cornrows with my natural hair. Then recently, I cut my hair again and colored it — I cut my locs off. It was like a four inch afro kind of thing. Now I’m growing it back. My hair is really a lot of fun.”
Tumblr media
What usually inspires a hair switch-up?
“Well first, I'm not a day-by-day kind of hair girl. If I'm working, I’ll probably do some sort of really pretty protective style that way I can easily throw on any wig or hair piece without bothering my real hair. But when I’m not working, I realized that I love a good twist out. I also do like these little afro puffs and the occasional blowout when I feel like it. I like to play around. Last year I actually grew my hair out quite a bit so I was able to try even more.”
Has there ever been a time that you tried something and felt like, ‘Okay, this was an epic fail?’
“I got a natural cut once and I hated how they shaped it up in the back. But you know, there's nothing you can do when you cut it that low — you just have to wait for it to grow and then you can put some braids in it or something. But then again, it was kind of a blessing being an artist at the same time because I saw my face differently. I was like, ‘Oh, I can play this kind of character.’ I didn’t feel my most glamorous, but it was really interesting what I learned. There's always some revelation in seeing yourself differently and if you can embrace it, then you can learn a lot from it.”
So I'm sure that you've also tried plenty of products then with all these hair changes. Do you have any favorites?
“Actually, I have very sensitive skin so I mix my own stuff. I have a garden and I'll make rice water and use chia, olive oil, and my own essential oils. I also like to use aloe vera straight out the plant. It’s really self-loving, and I really recommend if you have the time and resources to do it. You can keep it for a few months, label it, and store it away. I started doing this because I would look at the ingredients that worked for me in some of the products that I liked, and then just started buying them and fixing them myself.
“Nowadays so many things have preservatives in it and I think our hair is happier when we don’t expose it to chemicals. I feel like if there's anything that they advise against using while pregnant, it’s probably not that great for you at all.”
Tumblr media
You mentioned self-love, and for us as Black women, hair is so much more than just aesthetics. What is your emotional relationship like with your hair?
“It's been challenging not seeing the representation for it. In the beginning, I thought that my texture was like so unmanageable and so coarse, but I’ve realized I have very manageable hair. Yes, it’s 4C but with just the slightest bit of love and attention, it does everything that I want it to do. It's this crazy ashy, weird color but I love it. My relationship with my hair is just like my relationship with my body — it’s ever-changing.” [x]

Why Cardi B's & Megan Thee Stallion's "WAP" is a gender equality anthem about sex and confidence
WAP is a unique, bizarre, batsh*t crazy and brilliant anthem. It enhances dominance in both the woman and the man which makes it extra special. Cardi & Megan cover a lot of topics such as religion, confidence in both genders and I love it.
(Tbh, this has been on my mind for a while, and I'm just trying to sound professional)
The lyrical content (Cardi B) (Pt. 1)
Tumblr media
"I said certified freak, seven days a week. WAP. Make that pull out game weak"
Cardi is expressing the excitement and extreme interest she has in sex. She isn't afraid to commit to her man. She has no shame and isn't alienating sex, and is delivering the honest, icky and obsessive addiction to sex. She isn't committed. She is doing it all day, every day.
"Yeah, you f*cking with some WAP. Bring a bucket and a mop with this WAP. Give me everything you got with this WAP."
Cardi doesn't make sex seem like this overglamorised, poetic or extremely romantic subject. It can get messy, which is really honest. This is where the male empowerment message comes through. Cardi is encouraging her man to be strong, powerful and give her his whole. She doesn't want to be fully in control. She wants her man to have control creating a sexual balance between the genders.
"Beat it up. Catch a charge. Extra large and extra hard. Put this cookie right in your face. Swipe you nose like a credit card. Hope on top. I wanna ride. I do a kegel, while it's inside. Spit in my mouth. Look in my eyes. This p*ssy is wet. Come take a dive"
Cardi describes herself as a credit card, technically. She talks about herself like she is worth something. She has value and that she is meaningful. There is more male empowerment here. She doesn't just talk about herself. She tells her man what she wants. She wants him to do particular things, to her. She doesn't beat around the bush. She is direct and knows what she wants. A very attractive trait in women.
"Tie me up like I'm surprised. Let's role play I'll wear a disguise. I want you to park that big Mack truck. Right in this little garage. Make me cream, make me scream. Out in public. Make a scene."
Again, more confidence. She wants to scream her passion her public. She isn't ashamed of her partner and their wilderness. She wants her and her man to be seen by the world. Not just herself. She wants everything to the extreme possible level. She is adventurous and wild. This is female and also slight male empowerment.
"I don't cook. I don't clean. But let me tell you why I got this ring."
Cardi is going faaaaarrrrrr away from gender stereotypes. (Although we do appreciate when you might cook or clean cause that's just lazy and self entitled if you don't, Belcalis. ) Cardi is pleasing her man. She is making him happy as long as he does the same. This is gender equality between her and her man.
The lyrical content (Megan Thee Stallion) (Pt. 1)
Tumblr media
"Gobble me. Swallow me. Drip down the side of me. Quick, jump out fore let it get inside of me. Tell him where to put it never tell me where I'm about to be"
Megan wants her man to want all of her. Her entirely. This shows her confidence in her entire body. And that he is worth of her.
(Gonna skip them cause they are pretty sloppy and descriptive and have nothing really to do with anything)
"You ain't never gotta f*ck him for a thang. He already made his mind up look for he came."
Megan describes sex as something that doesn't need to have an outcome. They don't need to do it out of guilt, boredom or because it is ideal for a relationship. Sex is something they both have for pleasure and enjoyment. This is a healthy way to paint sex. Not as something that makes the relationship automatically better. (Although it can). It's a gift, that they appreciate.
The lyrical content (Cardi B) (Pt. 2)
Tumblr media
"Look, I need a hard hit. I need a deep stroker. Henny drinker. Weed smoker. Not a garden snake. I need a king cobra. With a hook and I hope it leans over."
Cardi isn't controlling her man. She lets him live how he wants to. He can be as rebellious and extreme as he wants. As long a he puts effort in, she is satisfied. She isn't forcing her partner to change himself. All that she needs is passion and devotion, for their chemistry to work.
"He's got some money, so that's where I'm heading. P*ssy A1, just like's credit. He got a beard, well, I'm try a wet it. I let him taste it now he's diabetic"
Cardi does sound like a golddigger here, BUT she also wants the best for herself. She isn't just taking what she can get. She is perusing what she wants. (With his consent, obviously) She is also talking about how she is trying her best to adjust to her situation. Again, her partner is the way he is.
The lyrical content (Megan Thee Stallion) (Pt. 2)
Tumblr media
"Your honour. I'm a freak b*tch, handcuffs, leashes. Switch my wig, make him feel like he's cheating. Put him on his knees, give him something to believe in. Never lost a fight but I'm looking for a beating!"
Megan isn't afraid of being an honest crazy and sexy woman. She doesn't mind her man being attracted to other woman. As long as he is with her, she doesn't mind. This also has weird religious annotations. She wants her man to worship her. She wants her man appreciating who she is and she is gonna prove it and make him a believer. Megan alos wants to get the best. She wants her man to give her his best. She wants him to be confident.
The video, aesthetic and dancing
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
The video features a lot of women including Kylie Jenner, Norman from the girl group Fifth Harmony along Cardi and Megan herself. Showing the different cultures and diversity of women.
Cardi and Megan portray many looks along with their song. Including leopard, cheetah and silk dresses. Representing the difference in preference and confidence these women have.
Conclusion
"WAP" is a work of art representing the strength and natural sexual nature of both genders and doesn't shy away from them. It is dirty, honest and has extremely recognisable sound. The more dirty it is, the more clean the message. It will truly inspire generations.

Imagine the slashers shopping for groceries...
Yes. Jason Voorhees: ⋆ Can't decide if he needs a trolley or just a basket and stands there for several minutes, pondering. ⋆ Buys something nice for his mother's shrine, like a bouquet of flowers. ⋆ Gets stuck in a freezer but pretends that everything is okay. Michael Myers: ⋆ Brings a list but ends up buying random items instead and has regret later when he realises the fridge is still empty. ⋆ Buys a pumpkin every time he goes grocery shopping; it brings him nostalgia from his childhood when he would prepare for Halloween. ⋆ Only deals with the self-serve check-outs because he pretends to scan the items but secretly doesn't. Freddy Krueger: ⋆ Moves throughout the store on a mobility scooter and tries to run people down and over with it. ⋆ Finds a mop and bucket and makes an aisle excessively wet, hoping to see someone slip and fall; gets asked to leave the store from a staff member. ⋆ Buys a tube of aloe vera lotion. I think it's a bit too late for that, Fred. Leatherface: ⋆ Almost sheds a tear of happiness when he gets to the meat department. Is this the real life, is this just fantasy? ⋆ Feels obligated to show the butchers how to properly cut up meat. ⋆ Forgot about what Drayton told him to buy and ended up with four baskets of steak. Brahms Heelshire: ⋆ No, he does not do grocery shopping. That is the help’s duty. ⋆ Realises he has to since he killed the grocery boy, and anxiety has entered the chat. ⋆ Orders groceries online because fuck going out in public and socialising. Chucky & Tiffany: ⋆ Had trouble entering the store because the automatic sliding doors couldn't detect a presence. ⋆ A staff member grabbed them as they were pretending to be lifeless and threw them 'back' on the toy shelf. ⋆ Stole money out of a cash register because they don't need food. Hannibal Lecter: ⋆ Imagines what each person he passes would taste like. ⋆ Only the most expensive brands, thank you. Forget that store-label bullshit. ⋆ Fava beans, Chianti and maybe sausages; they aren't human intestines but he supposes they'll have to do. Pennywise: ⋆ Party section! ⋆ Throws a tantrum when he sees that all the red balloons are out of stock. It was the only thing on his list, for fuck sake. ⋆ Demands to speak to the head person in charge, the manager tells him to just buy a different colour and he swears he could cut a bitch right now. Pinhead: ⋆ Buys some eye-drops because those sclera contacts make his eyes itchy as hell. ⋆ Where are the torture devices? What's a shop without torture devices? Unimpressed. ⋆ Purchases a bible just so he can burn it. Norman Bates: ⋆ Buys cleaning sprays, candles, and napkins. He needs to make the motel look presentable. ⋆ A new drill to make more holes in the walls because the one he was using stopped working and he'll be damned if he doesn't see titties anymore. ⋆ A toothbrush to get those baby hairs on his mother's wig looking snatched. Billy Loomis & Stu Macher: ⋆ You know damn well they're taking turns in pushing each other down an aisle at full speed in a trolley. ⋆ These two are why your bag of grapes is only half full because they like to grab a handful and eat them while shopping. ⋆ One gets a hold of the loudspeaker and gives a shout-out to the other. John Kramer: ⋆ Gee, John... Buying so many knives at once makes you look a bit dodgy. ⋆ Vegetables, fruits, nuts; he knows the importance of staying healthy and valuing your life physical state. ⋆ Needs a small tub of white paint because Billy has a scratch on his face. :( Samara Morgan: ⋆ Detangling shampoo and conditioner. ⋆ Detangling spray. ⋆ Detangling brush.

Dracula: ⋆ Why does the store have to be so fucking bright, holy shit? ⋆ Literally gets around in dark sunglasses and a sombrero he found in the party section to shade his face because he can't deal. ⋆ This is his third time going up and down every aisle because he can't figure out where the vials of blood are kept. Hilliker Brothers: ⋆ Three finger climbing on top of shelves and perching like a meerkat. ⋆ One Eye just sitting on the floor, with a tumbleweed going through his mind and drooling more than Cujo. ⋆ Saw Tooth, being the responsible brother, actually collects groceries but loses his temper when the cashier says he can't have the food for free. He's now taking home free groceries, plus one dead dumbass. Jack Torrance: ⋆ There are many words on his shopping list but it's just 'booze' written a dozen times. He obviously doesn't want to forget and certainly hasn't gone crazy. ⋆ Buys some liver detox pills because a trolley load of alcohol says his health is probably shit. ⋆ Purchases typewriter ribbon because he ran out using the last he had to strangle someone. Candyman: ⋆ Bumped into Cujo and thought his fur would make a great coat. ⋆ Purchases paint supplies because he must prove he's more than just a demonic serial killer; he's also a skilled artist and refuses to let that fact slide. ⋆ Damn straight he buys some candy and it's not because it's difficult to write for him. Jaws: ⋆ Cut up and served on ice in the deli.

Oblitus Part Eight Alastor's Game
63 Days until Extermination...
Alastor opened the door to the hotel, only to be met with Charlie as she bombarded him with questions. Vaggie glared at the radio demon with her arms crossed standing behind the princess.
 "Where's Angel? What happened?! Why is she unconscious in your arms?!" Alastor smiled in amusement at the princess continued ranting hysterically.
"The answers to your questions are: 1. I haven't seen him, and 2. She's just a little worn out by the excitement. I'm going to put her to bed." Alastor said as he walked past Charlie and Vaggie carrying Anna in his arms. The two looked at each other before looking back at the radio demon. However, Alastor came to a pause as he stopped, seeing someone sitting in a stool at the bar. A dog demon with red and white fur and red spots was drinking a glass of wine. Alastor narrowed his eyes at her as he flared his nostrils up with disdain.
"Who are you?" He asked with a strained smile on his face. Charlie walked over and introduced the dog demon to Alastor.
"Al, this is Crymini. She actually just showed up at our doorstep while you two were away. She's going to be an participant in the redemption program! Isn't this amazing!" Charlie squealed happily.
"I don't talk to dogs." The radio demon stated.
Charlie eyes widen at the Alastor's curt rude remark. he continued walking, ignoring the wolf demon as he walked past her. Crymini growled, baring her teeth angrily as she glared at Alastor as he walked away, carrying the human.
 "Alastor!" The princess scolded but the demon was already out of ears reach.
Anna groaned as she slowly began to open her eyes. As she did, she was met with a pair of red ones staring right back into hers.
"What did you dream about?" Alastor asked.
Anna screamed as she shoved the demon back, scrambling as she sat up in the bed. She narrowed her eyes, glaring at the demon sitting on the bed with her.
"Get away from me!"
Alastor laughed. "I'm afraid that's going to be impossible, darling. We made a deal, remember?"
"Yes, I did. You saved me and it's done now." Anna said. "Now, leave me alone." Alastor laughed, darkly. Anna didn't like the sound of it as she stared at him. 
"You don't know how deals work do you?" Alastor made a smug grin as his pointed his finger at the human. "Yes, I did save you and completed the task. However, you belong to me now." Anna's eyes widen. Alastor grinned more and continued. "You are now in a contract with me. Once you fulfilled your life in the living world, the day that you die, your immortal soul will belong to me." Alastor grinned darkly as he fixed his monocle, looking at Anna dead straight in her eyes. 
"GET OUT!" Anna snapped, angrily. Alastor's eyes widen as he sat still, looking at her. An eerie radio static emitted from him. "I don't want to hear another word from you!" 
"Sweetheart, calm down. There's no point in getting worked up.-" Alastor was cut off by Anna.
"JUST LEAVE! LEAVE ME ALONE!" She cried. 
 Alastor hummed to himself as he stared at her then shrugged his hands. "As you wish." He said. The radio demon stood up and walked towards the door, closing it. Anna shoved her face into her knees, wrapping her arms, as she sat up in the bed and cried. She wanted to leave. She want out of this Hellish place. Back to her boyfriend...She wondered how he was it how he was coping without her. 
"Chris, I miss you..." Anna whimpered.
However, as Anna cried, at the other end of the closed door, Alastor was still standing in the hallway, as he rested  his back against it. He covered his face with his hand grabbing his hair tightly. His antlers began to grow slightly as the lights in the hallway began to grow dimmer. Multiple Voo doo symbols began to flicker around him. He was furious. How can one silly girl cause him to get easily worked up? 
Why? He did not know. It frustrated him to no end. Alastor felt his the corners of his lips almost begin to drop, almost turning into a scowl.
Hours seemed to have passed as Anna sat in the bed until she heard a small scratching sound at the door.
 "Go away." She murmured sadly. But the scratching from the door continued. She frowned and looked up staring at the door. Anna got up as she climbed off the bed opening it.
"I told you to leave me alo-!" However, there was nobody there. She peeked out looked around the hallway but saw nothing. Then she looked down and her eyes widen in surprise to see a small pink pig with black spots and horns on the top of his head. Anna squealed with delight and scooped up the little swine in her arms.
"Where'd you come from, cutie patootie!?" Anna cooed as she scratched the pig on his belly. It snorted in content and snuggled into Anna's chest. The human smiled as she continued to let the pig until she saw a collar around the swine's neck reading, "Fat Nuggets."
"So you're name's Fat Nuggets?" Anna asked. The pig let out a small squeal as if answering her. Suddenly, he began to squirm in Anna's, wanting to be put down. As Anna placed Far Nuggets on the floor, he began to scurry away but stopped and looked back towards her as if he wanted her to follow him. 
The pig led Anna down the hallway a couple doors down until it stopped in front of a door that was slightly ajar. Fat Nuggets pushed the door open with with his head, opening it and walked inside the room with Anna following behind. 
"You're a smart piggy aren't you?" Anna asked as she smiled, walking into the room.
She blinked as she looked around seeing a couple of wigs sitting on the dresser and large mirror, an ashtray with some used cigarettes in it. She blushed and her eyes widen in surprise seeing a box marked with sex toys that was filled with certain types. Anna quickly looked away. As she turned her head Anna saw Fat Nuggets laying down on the bed looking at a picture in a frame that was sitting on a small table next to the bed. She walked over and sat down and picked up the picture frame looking at it. It was a picture of Angel holding Fat Nuggets as they were posing. Anna felt her chest began to grow heavy as guilt began to face through her mind.
Suddenly, a loud buzz, nearly scared her, breaking her out of her thoughts. She looked and saw a small cellphone on the dresser and picked it up. On the screen was the name, Cherri.
"Hello?" Anna asked answering it. 
"Who is this? Where's Angel?" Anna heard a woman's voice on the other end answered, confused.
"He's with someone named Val." Anna replied. She heard the woman curse angrily on the other end before she spoke.
"WHAT THE HELL?! WHY IS HE WITH HIM?!" 
"Angel and I had this limo chase after us, which I assume was Val. We took cover in an alley but was cornered. Angel gave himself up. But, he told me that he will be fine. That this Val was nothing to worry about." Anna gritted her teeth remembering Angel's screams as Val assaulted him.
"Nothing to worry about-" Cherri answered in disbelief. "WHAT THE FUCK?! You were there, why didn't you help him?!" She screamed, angrily. Anna flinched. What could have She done? Even if she tried to help him, she would have been killed. Who was she kidding, she was a coward.
 "Great! Now I'm going to have to go over to the Studio and blow the place up and save his stupid ass!" Cherri's voice muttered, irritated.
"Studio?" Anna questioned. "What Studio?"
"It would be the place that Angel would be with Valentino." Cherri explained. "Damn it! If that bastard does anything to him!-"
"Is there anything that I can do to help?" Anna asked softly.
 "You've done enough. Considering, how it is your fault that he got captured to begin with!" Cherri shouted, angrily. Anna cringed.
 "Please, I want to make it up to him! He helped me, now I want to help him! What can I do!? Where can we meet?" She pleaded.
"You're at that stupid hotel, right? I'll be there soon. Don't keep me waiting." Anna heard Cherri answered before hanging up.

"U r flying aboard the Seduction 747 And this plane is fully equipped with anything your body desires
If 4 any reason there is a loss in cabin pressure I will automatically drop down 2 apply more
2 activate the flow of excitement Extinguish all clothing materials and pull my body close 2 yours Place my lips over your mouth and kiss, kiss
Normally, in the event there is overexcitement Your seat cushion may be used as a flotation device…"
Prince – "International Lover"
Summary:  Erik Killmonger takes a break from M.I.T. to fly to a friend's wedding and gives a flight attendant working on her birthday a lovely gift. Mature Content. Basically, smut y’all. Enjoy.  
Fa'aana Brown greeted each passenger on board the Boeing 777 with a practiced charm and a wide smile of her pearly whites. She had stepped in for the lead flight attendant, Lucy, who had to take care of a surly passenger who insisted that his first-class accommodations were not to his liking because he wanted a window seat instead of the aisle seat he had already paid for.
Thankfully their international flight to the Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport wasn't crowded. It was the offseason in Rome, so many of the flight attendants would be able to rest on this leg of their trip. Fa'aana would be in charge of the galley in the rear section of the plane, and when she glanced at her watch, she saw they would actually leave the gate relatively early by the looks of the dwindling number of passengers coming down the ramp.
"Whew, problem solved, our Mr. Clayton has been satisfied," Lucy said, tucking a loose strand of her chemically-treated blonde hair behind her ear.
"Did you move him?"
"No, just set him up with some bourbon and cookies. He just wanted to be catered to." "I bet it was that southern accent of yours too."
Lucy smirked.
"A Charleston, South Carolina belle here at your service Mr. Clayton," Lucy said in a breathy voice and batting her false eye-lashes.
"Work it, honey," Fa'aana said handing the speakerphone to Lucy so she could make final announcements before take-off.
"See ya later," Lucy said as Fa'aana made her final cabin check from the mid-section to the back, closing overhead bins and assisting passengers with bags that didn't fit under their seats.
Her temporary work husband Mark, a soft-spoken flight attendant from Spain, was in the galley filling up their snack carts and checking supplies for the ten-hour flight.
"Looks like a cake-walk," Mark said glancing out and peeping the less than full cabin.
Fa'aana checked the pre-heat timer of the convection oven as it waited to be used for the in-flight meal of penne pasta and meatballs.
"Let's hope so. Lucy put out a little fire with a man in first class. Other than that, we are looking good," she said.
Fa'aana did a final check to make sure things were secure before take-off in the galley when she noticed a last-minute passenger making his way toward the back.
Something about his swagger down the left side of the aisle made her know he was American. He was Black and a part of her always got excited when she saw Black people on international flights. So many of her friends back in Atlanta complained about working so hard and not being able to afford overseas travel. Staycations were the theme in her clique, so seeing another Black person going out of the country was exciting for her. It was part of the reason why she became a flight attendant, even though her workload didn't really allow that dream of fun/leisure world travel to come to fruition as much over the past two years. She did her best to encourage others to get out of America. She even wrote a little travel blog that got quite a few hits. She aimed her tips toward single Black women trying to make the globe-trotting lifestyle worth their time and coins.
Round black sunglasses, form-fitting black woven Nike tracksuit, and expensive track kicks. Nice dark mustache, a soul patch, and a light scruffy beard. Fresh cornrows with intricate braid patterns decorated the top of his head, with the sides shaved low. His head bent down to check his ticket and when he found his seat, he opened the overhead bin to toss in a small duffle bag. He pulled a small black computer bag from his back and sat down, tucking the bag under the seat in front of him.
Fa'aana walked down to his seat when she noticed that the straps to his duffle bag were sticking out from under the overhead bin. She opened the bin and tucked in his straps. When she glanced down, his dark lenses were looking up at her and she saw his lips. Up close.
Lord have mercy.
His lips were so lush and full. And his braids smelled so good, fresh coconut oil…
"Thanks, Ma," he said.
"Welcome aboard," she said.
He took off his dark glasses and stared at her chest. She was about to feel offended but then he glanced back up at her face.
"Is that a Polynesian name?" he asked. She realized he was looking at her name tag.
He had a regional accent she was trying to place.
"Yes, it is. Samoan."
"You Samoan?"
"My father is half. Other half Black. Mother Black too."
She thought she looked obviously Black. She was darker than he was by a shade and her hair texture was thick like her Mama's and shrunk up tight when she washed it. Her shoulder-length curls were slicked up with aloe gel and knotted on top of her head for work. He nodded staring at her face. His eyes were kind of intense. She felt like he was studying her.
He tried pronouncing her name and she laughed. So did the passenger sitting at the window seat. The middle seat was empty.
"I sound like a dolphin saying it, huh?" His smile revealed dimples in his cheeks.
Her fingers went to her lips to keep herself from laughing at him again.
"How do you say it?" he asked.
"We pronounce all the vowels like this…"
She said it for him and his eyes watched her lips. She felt her stomach flutter and she was beginning to feel warm.
"Pretty," he said, "Fuh-ah-nuh…"
"Close enough," she said as he tried several passes to catch the right way.
In her periphery, she saw Mark waving to her from the back.
"Enjoy your flight," she said heading toward the galley once again.
Mark pulled her to the side.
"Is he famous?" he asked.
"What?"
"Is he a singer? Rapper? Actor?"
"I don't know—"
"He has that look. He carries himself like a celebrity. Dark glasses and all…"
"Lots of people wear dark glasses on long flights, Mark. Red eyes from being tired."
Mavis, an older Black flight attendant who could run circles around the entire crew burst into the back carrying a small plastic bag of trash.
"Ooh, y'all see that cutie in forty-seven G?" she said putting the trash away.
"Does he look like someone famous?" Mark asked.
Mavis patted her short cut wig and looked at them both.
"Not really, but man, he got it going on. Body all tight…lips all—"
"Okay, okay, let's focus on the job at hand you guys," Fa'aana said.
The pre-flight video played on every individual passenger screen and Fa'aana was happy to feel the plane backing away from the gate. Once they had reached cruising altitude, she could start the drink and snack cart run and then relax for a bit before the dinner run.
Buckled up into her galley seat she could see down the aisle and saw the arm of the man in forty-seven G lying on the outer armrest.
A young white woman sitting across from him in the middle row was talking to him with animated energy, and he was holding an earbud in his hand while listening to her. The woman leaned across her armrest and Forty-Seven G stuck his earbud back in and turned away from her. The woman looked shocked and eased back into her seat.
Fa'aana chuckled wondering what transpired to make him ignore the woman so abruptly.
She thought of him trying to say her name. Most people would slaughter it and then try to pronounce it the way they wanted to say it, making it easy for them. Or, they just nicknamed her "Ana". But as her Daddy used to tell her, if people can pronounce fucking Schwarzenegger or Tchaikovsky, they could pronounce her name correctly too. And Mr. Forty-Seven G did his best to get it right. God bless him.
Cruising Altitude.
She unfastened her seat in the galley and began the careful push of the metal snack/drink cart down the aisle. Mark worked the left side of the plane and part of the middle and she worked the right and the other half of the middle. Most of the passengers wanted the free wine and peanuts, and because their section wasn't completely full, they were moving right along.
When Fa'aana made it to forty-seven F, she was able to see the tight-lipped white woman who tried to holler at forty-seven G. The woman looked to be in her early twenties with overly caked make-up, and hair teased to look like a wavy cascade of light brown curls.
"Cookies, peanuts?" Fa'aana asked giving the woman a pleasant look.
"Peanuts, and can I have a white wine?"
Fa'aana handed the woman two bags of salted peanuts and poured wine into a plastic white cup.
When she turned toward forty-seven G, she asked the window seat passenger what he wanted first and the older white man sitting there dismissed her with a smile and a wave of his hand. He was focused on his movie.
"And you?" she said.
"Kentucky Straight on the rocks," he said holding his earbud from his left ear.
She smirked.
"What?" he said smiling at her flashing those dimples again.
"Nothing. I'll have to get that from the back, so give me a minute to finish and I'll bring it right back. Snack?"
His eyes felt like they raked across her whole body even though they just stayed glued to her face. She felt a shiver ghost her neck as she glanced at his lips again.
"Lemme get summa them cookies."
She reached into her cart and pulled out two packages of cinnamon cookies and handed it to him with a couple of napkins. His fingers brushed against hers and then he let down his service tray in front of him.
"Where are you from?" she asked, her curiosity getting the better of her.
"Oakland," he said.
"I was trying to place your accent." "Erik," he said holding out his hand. She shook it.
"Nice to meet you, Erik. Be right back."
She moved down the aisle and completed her run, and as she moved back to the galley, she had the sensation that he was watching her. She didn't look behind her.
She checked the liquor cabinet and pulled out the whiskey he wanted. She poured him an extra serving over the ice and tried to figure out why she was feeling a certain way about this dude. He looked young, but his demeanor seemed older to her. In seven hours, she would be turning twenty-six years old. She planned on celebrating when she returned to Atlanta. She felt like she looked her age, but forty-seven G…no Erik, his name was Erik,…he could be early twenties or maybe younger.
She wasn't into younger dudes. She also wasn't really into guys her own age because they were so un-focused to her. She liked older men, at least six to seven years older. In fact, a nice thirty-year-old city planner was waiting to take her out for her birthday when she returned home from the Italy turn-around.
She walked carefully back to Erik's seat and handed him his drink with more napkins.
He took a sip right away.
"Hmmm, not bad. Thank you, Fa'aana," he said.
Whew, chile. She felt her clit thump when he said her name the right way in a seductive tone. It shocked her and she just stood there feeling like he knew what happened inside her panties.
"Enjoy," she said scurrying away from him.
What the hell?
She stood in the back of the galley and wiped her forehead.
"You alright?" Mark asked turning on the convection oven.
"Yes. Just feeling a little warm."
"Really, it's a bit chilly out there. I passed out a few extra blankets."
"It's just me."
"You're not getting sick are you?"
"No."
"Drink plenty of water."
"I will."
The dinner run was smooth and when she served Erik his in-flight meal, he was gracious but focused on a movie he was watching. Clean-up was a breeze and once several rounds of free wine went out along with some black coffee, passengers began to batten down the hatches for sleep. Lights were lowered and Fa'aana snacked a bit before snagging a row of seats to herself in the last middle back row. She sat on the right aisle side so she could keep an eye on the floor. Mark stayed watch hidden in the galley seat and Mavis took no shame finding a row for herself on the far-left side a few rows up from Fa'aana.
Killing time, she started playing a trivia game on the video screen. She was kicking ass playing with seven other passengers. Passenger forty-seven G was hanging neck and neck with her.
Wait. That was Erik.
She stuck her head out and leaned over to look up his way and she could see him pressing buttons on his screen fast. He turned his head to look back, and she ducked back in her seat so he couldn't see her.
After thirty minutes when she won three games out of five, she switched over to a card game of solitaire.
"Nah, go back to the trivia screen."
She was startled to see Erik standing next to her row.
"I was wondering who was sitting back here in fifty-seven F messing up my scores," he said, a sly smile on his lips.
"Busted," she said.
"You're good."
"I've been known to keep a ton of useless trivia in my head. It just comes out in my favor on here."
His eyes were relaxed and he seemed to hold his liquor well after two glasses of wine after his dinner.
"You mind if I sit back here with you and play another round? I want to see if you're cheating or not."
"Cheating? Brain power, Sir."
"Alright, Ma. Let's see then. Scoot over."
She thought about it for a moment.
"You still on the clock?" he asked.
"Yes—"
"Most people are sleep. Just a quick game. Your boss comes through I'll say you were helping me with my screen."
It was tempting.
"One quick game," she said scooting her petite frame over in order to allow his much taller and well-built one to squeeze in next to her.
They both went to the trivia game screen. There was only one other person playing with them.
"Oh, so that's how you pick your answers so fast, you keep your finger on the screen the whole time," he said.
He followed suit, and soon they were matching scores. He beat her for two rounds, but she cleaned up on the last one.
"You want another drink or anything?" she asked.
"Another whiskey would be nice, thanks," he said.
She stood up and scooted past him, straightening her skirt when she reached the aisle. He watched her hand smooth the back. She had a little booty that poked out a bit, but she didn't think it was that obvious, but the way he was looking at her made her self-aware.
She stepped into the galley and poured him another big drink. Mark was asleep. She had to keep her eyes open just in case a passenger needed anything.
"Here," she said handing him the drink along with another packet of cookies.
"Look at you taking care of me," he said winking at her.
It felt odd to be sitting next to him while he drank.
He must've read her mind.
"Here, have a sip," he said handing his cup to her.
"Umm…"
"You can use the straw, I didn't. I'm healthy as hell, just so you know," he said.
"That would not be a good look for me while I'm working. Plus, that drink is really strong."
"It is. You hooked me up though. Not even one sip?"
His eyes had a puppy dog look to them and he tilted his head staring at her.
What could it hurt? It would be her birthday soon enough.
She took his cup and had a tiny sip.
"Stop playing, girl," he said.
His voice sounded raspy. His scruffy beard and mustache really started to look sexy to her. She normally liked men to have neat facial hair, but Erik's looked free and easy- Black hipster chic. She wanted to rub her cheek against it…
Her face felt warm again and she took a bigger sip of his drink.
"There you go. Good, huh?"
The heat hit her throat and she squeezed her eyes shut and gasped. He laughed.
"Amateur," he teased. She started coughing and he reached over and rubbed her back, "My bad, you okay, Ma?"
She held a hand up to her chest and he kept rubbing his hand up and down her back until he was touching her neck.
"You can finish that all by yourself," she said.
He removed his hand from her neck and sipped down his drink.
They talked for a bit and she found herself warming up to him. He was easy to talk to. He was going to a friend's wedding in Rome and would be flying back to Massachusetts afterward. He was in his second year of grad school at M.I.T. and damn it to hell, he was only twenty-one.
"Don't think I'm rude for thinking this…I know you're part Samoan, but they some big ass people. But you, you're so petite—"
"I'm supposed to be buff like Dwayne Johnson or something?" she said rolling her eyes.
"I mean, I've met a lot of Polynesian folks in Cali, and they ain't tiny like you—"
"Tiny?"
"Petite, petite! Short?"
She gave him side eye. And then took his cup of whiskey and took another big sip.
"I'm five foot four."
"I'm six one. You little."
"Pfftt."
She eyed him a bit.
"You want to hear a terrible joke?" she asked feeling a bit loose with him.
"Go 'head."
"I hope you're not easily offended."
"I'm not."
"What do get when you mix Samoans with…."
She trailed off.
"What?"
"Does the N-word bother you?"
"Nah, I use it from time to time. Not in mixed white company usually. But we good."
"Okay. Because if I try to tell this another way, it won't come out right."
"Tell it straight."
"Okay, what do you get when you mix Samoans with….okay why are you looking at me like that?" she said and started laughing.
He had his index finger up against his face like he was judging her. He laughed with her.
"Tell your joke, girl. C'mon…"
"What—"
She started snorting and laughing, the whiskey hitting her and making her goofy.
"Forget it," he said smiling at her and taking his cup from her hand, "You can't handle this Miss Lightweight."
He started up another trivia game and she leaned in toward him.
"What do you get when you mix Samoans and niggas?"
"What?" His eyes had a twinkle in them.
"Some more niggas."
"Your parents hear you tell that joke?"
"My Mama was the one who told my Daddy."
"I'm offended."
His eyes became real serious looking. She stopped laughing.
"I'm sorry. That was unprofessional-"
He burst out laughing.
"I'm just fuckin' witchu!"
"Oh my God. I thought you were really upset."
"You had the look of unemployment on your face!"
They both cracked up.
"You're really pretty when you laugh. Your whole body gets into it."
"Thanks—"
"But that snortin' has got to go!"
"Shut up!" She slapped his shoulder and found herself intrigued by him. He was twenty-one, totally not her age bracket at all, but somehow, he acted…grown? Mature? Acted like someone she could be interested in?
"I was going to watch this foreign flick. Would you like to watch it with me?" he asked.
"Let me go do a quick round first?" she asked. He nodded and finished off his whiskey.
She went to the lavatory to relieve herself of the liquor and then she checked in with Mark who was still snoozing in the galley. Several rows from their seats were empty or only had one occupant, and most were asleep. Nice.
She returned to their row. Erik's hand reached up and turned on one of the reading lights above him.
"This will help keep you awake in case someone calls for you," he said.
He pulled out one of the free earphones that they passed out to passengers earlier.
"We can share this. One ear for the movie, the other free to hear a call for whatever."
"You think of everything," she said.
He was so easy.
A complete stranger, but in less than four hours they had shared a drink together, a crude joke, and now she was kicking off her work heels and curling up on a seat to watch a Korean gangster drama.
The movie was fucking intense.
Even though it was edited for public consumption, Fa'aana found it to be filled with graphic violence and so much…sex. Implied sex really. She was glad they were in the last back rows alone; she would feel embarrassed if other people saw what was on the screen.
Erik took up a lot of space in the middle seat.
"You mind if I lift this up?" he asked.
She looked down at his hand. He wanted to pull up the middle armrest.
"Go ahead," she said without thinking, and he lifted it up opening up the only barrier between them. He stretched his legs and widened his thighs. His right thigh brushed against hers.
"Sorry," he said.
"S'okay," she answered.
She glanced at her watch.
"W'sup?" he asked. "Huh?"
"You keep looking at your watch. You gotta be somewhere?"
"Funny. Um, my birthday is about to drop in…oh, snap, my birthday is here already."
"For real? You're working on your birthday?"
"I'll celebrate it when I get back to Atlanta. I have a birthday dinner date at a fancy restaurant."
"With your boyfriend?"
Erik's eyes looked playful.
"Sort of-"
"Sort of?"
He smiled at her.
"We've been dating for a minute."
"Is he your man though?"
Her lips got tight. No, Hugh was not her man. She was hoping he would be, but thus far they just ate out for meals and had sex at her apartment when she was in town.
Erik's eyes grew soft-looking.
"Happy Birthday, Fa'aana.., hold up—"
He reached into his left pocket.
"I couldn't finish this at dinner, but it can come in handy now."
It was a Godiva chocolate brownie still wrapped inside the plastic. The dinner dessert.
"Hold on," he said.
He pulled out some pocket wetnaps, opened them and cleaned his hands. A rich lemony smell filled her nostrils. Unwrapping the brownie, he placed it on one of the drink napkins she gave him.
"I don't have a candle, but you can pretend to blow one out," he said.
"That's really sweet, Erik."
"Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you…."
He sang quietly to her and when he finished, he held the brownie up to her mouth. She puckered up her lips and pretended to blow out a candle. When she did, he turned off the overhead reading light.
She could still see him in the glow of their video screens. She took a bite of the brownie and he took a piece too. He broke the remainder in half and fed her a piece then popped the rest in his mouth. She felt a few crumbs tumble from her lips and he reached over and wiped the rest away.
His thumb touched her bottom lip and she felt a tingle from his touch. He traced her lips with the tip of his thumb and she felt her jaw go lax, her mouth parting. Erik inserted part of his thumb in her mouth and she wrapped her lips around it, her tongue licking him. She heard him groan and he pulled her face toward him removing his thumb from between her lips.
"Can I kiss you, Fa'aana?"
"Please," she panted.
No armrest between them he pulled her in tight and his juicy lips took hers. When his tongue licked the seam of her lips, she opened up to him and took him in her mouth.
What are you doing?
She was on the job. She was supposed to be on post waiting to serve passengers who may wake up and want water, or coffee. Here she was with this fine young thing making out like she was trying to be a mile-high club patron.
Her hands went up to touch his hair and his left hand rested on her thigh inching its way up her uniform skirt…
"Hey, wait," she said breaking away from him. She rubbed her cheeks against his facial hair.
She heard a rumble in his chest and an irritated groan escape his lips.
"Too fast?" he asked staring at her eyes with a dreamy look on his sexy ass face.
"Let's just watch the movie."
"You sure?" he said, licking his lips and staring at her.
"That would be best. Safe."
"Okay, Birthday Girl."
He sat back in his seat and he rewound the movie to the last part they watched. Of course, it was a sex scene. A long one too. They stuck the earbuds on.
She folded her arms across her waist.
"You cold?" he asked.
He handed her one of the flimsy blankets and turned down the air above them. She spread the blanket over her legs.
"Lay on me if you want. I stay hot," he said.
She gave him a smirk.
"No, for real. My ex said I'm like a furnace sometimes," he said.
She allowed her left arm and leg to lean against him, and goodness, he was really warm. A nice cozy warm.
They continued watching the movie, and in the scene, a beautiful woman beckoned to her lover, a gangster she had betrayed throughout the movie, and they were lying in bed having passionate sex. The man was squirming in the scene like he was having convulsions.
"Shit that good, homie?" Erik said.
She giggled.
"He actin' like that thang yanks," he said.
"Oh my God, Erik—"
"What? Look at him. Damn…let me find pussy that good."
She found the crude talk exciting. She pressed into his arm a little more.
"You comfortable?" he asked looking down at her.
He lifted his arm and put it around her shoulder. She wanted to curl up and fall asleep on him. He smelled so good, a mixture of coconut oil and some subtle scent like a smoky clove scent. She rested her head against his chest and shifted the earplug to her other ear.
The movie turned into a chase scene and actually kept them both riveted despite having to read the subtitles. It was hard to concentrate because Erik was rubbing on her arm.
There was movement a few rows up and Erik removed his arm from her and she felt a grimace paint her face. God forbid a passenger would want her to work right now. She felt wrong for thinking that because of course she was on the clock, but it felt so nice…so right lying up against him.
She stuck her head out to look for anyone needing assistance, but it was just a passenger about five rows up shifting in their sleep. She opted to stay alert and not lay on Erik. She pressed up into her seat but kept her thigh next to Erik's. He rested his arm and hand on his thigh and part of hers. When she didn't move away from his touch, his hand crept over and rested totally on her thigh. Her breathing became a little heavier even though his hand was on top of the blanket.
"Here comes ole girl again…oh snap. Now she's with the head dude? Nah, she's triflin'…" he said.
She could only focus on Erik's warm hand stroking her thigh in small movements.
"This woman is putting it on these niggas and yoking them up," he said. He started chuckling. His eyes glanced over at her. "Damn, Ma."
"What?" she whispered.
His eyes trapped hers in his.
"You look sexy as hell right now. This movie got you excited?"
She shook her head.
"What got you lookin' like that?"
He already knew it was him. She could tell. He was toying with her. His touch hypnotizing her body. He pulled his earplug from his ear and hers.
"Let me give you a little Birthday present," he said.
"What kind of present?"
"Take your stockings off."
"Why?"
"You know why."
She hesitated. They had reached the point of no return.
"You don't have to if you don't want to. We can still just chill, or I can go back to my seat…"
She didn't want that.
Shit. Why not? It was her birthday. She would never see this man again. Enjoy him. Take whatever he wanted to give. She reached between her legs and pulled down her stockings and shimmied out of them. She balled them up and stuck them inside the pocket of the seat in front of her.
"You have to keep quiet," he said lifting up the blanket and placing part of it over his lap, "Pull your skirt up."
She gave thanks and praise that she had shaved her legs and trimmed up her chocha before she came to work. She wiggled a bit under the blanket fixing her skirt for him. Her eyes fell to his right hand and his thick fingers. The veins in his hand were up and she felt a whimper leave her parted lips.
His hand moved under the blanket and she felt the heat from his skin as his fingers found her damp panties.
"Damn, you're wet already. You been waiting for this, huh?" he whispered. He slid her panties to the side and her vulva slickened his fingers. She could hear his breathing become heavy. Three of his fingers pressed into her mound, easily finding her swollen clit and gifting it with tight slow circles. She widened her legs for him.
"Look at you being a wet slut for me," he said.
She slammed her right hand into her mouth to help herself keep quiet.
"Don't let your boss hear you," he said.
She could hear him panting.
"Can I play in your pussy?" he asked.
"Yes."
He moved his hand from under the blanket and lifted her up easily, placing her sideways on his lap.
"Hold your legs open," he said.
His left arm supported her back and she without a shameless bone in her body let her knees bend and her legs spread for him.
He dragged his fingers up and down her dripping slit, her panties twisted to the side.
"I bet you got a tight pussy," he hummed into her ear.
She whimpered and squirmed a bit in his lap.
"Shhh, be quiet, take these fingers," he said.
She felt him at her entrance, spreading her folds wide open, and then the sudden pressure of three fingers sinking into her slowly.
"Tight as fuck…damn," he gasped keeping his voice low and close to her ear.
She could feel the hard bulge of his erection under her ass, but she could barely focus on that when her walls were being tapped by his thick digits with expert precision. He pulled his fingers out and licked them, then placed them back inside of her.
"You a tasty bitch—"
"Fuck—" she hissed trying to swallow the word. Jesus, what if Mark or Mavis came looking for her? And God forbid one of the other passengers woke up and walked to the rear lavatories to take a piss.
His fingers found her swollen clit again and the mewling coming from her made him rotate his hips so that she could feel the girth of his shaft. He was a big boy for sure. He reached over into the seat and picked up the blanket that was once on her lap. He balled up a small part of it and shoved it in her mouth. She bit onto it as he slipped his fingers back inside of her, the in and out movement simulating a righteous birthday fucking.
"Shit, Ma. I wish I had a condom with me right now. I'd fuck you outta this plane."
She was breathing in hard through her nose and exhaling into the cloth shoved in her mouth. The sound of his fingers working her pussy was loud and obscene to her ears. People had to be able to hear all the squelching noises his fingers were causing her sopping folds to make. Her face felt tight and her eyes were rolling back. How could this be happening? A fine man walks onto a plane and hours later he's fingering her like he loves her?
Most men she had been with took a while to know her body well enough to make her pussy fall apart like that. Erik made her pussy jump the moment he said her name right, and now he had her ready to follow him anywhere. If this is what his fingers could do, what the fuck could his tongue and dick do to her?
Goddamn, he was hitting her clit with his fingers.
"My big dick would fuck this pussy up. Your boyfriend in Atlanta wouldn't be able to feel your pussy when I was done with it," he said.
She squeezed her eyes shut. He was slapping her vulva now and pinching her labia. She arched her back and it was like he could read her mind again. He spit on his fingers and rubbed them around her clit once more, pressing down as he rubbed so that he was covering part of her mound. His timing was impeccable because she came hard and fast and he watched her face as she did.
"Happy Birthday, Baby," he said as she collapsed on his lap, sweaty, wet between the legs, and feeling beyond satisfied.

Present Mic x Reader: Refrain
1 Backlash / 2 Repeat / (3 Refrain)
Summary: I have a new format! It’s been a week since you first met Yamada and for the first time he gets some insight about why you want to be a vigilante.
    Saturday went by in a blur because you were so exhausted. Tired, but content for the first time in days, getting to sleep once you had gotten back was a near impossible feat. A part of you still wondered if Present Mic would stick to his original promise that no one would come after you. He may have only meant it if you had decided to join the side of heroes or… Whatever.
The thought made you shudder.
      When you finally finished your next day you felt a breath of fresh air, and felt your body finally give into the physical and emotional fatigue you had endured over the past week. Sunday morning you opened your eyes with a joyful hum. No Pro’s pounding at your door! Mic seemed to be a lot of things, and being a stand-up guy was one of them! You wouldn’t have anything to worry about on your day off- and it felt nice to relax in your apartment where you were safe once more.
      You ate breakfast fit for royalty and slowly regarded your books across from the table… The books and the paper scratched with the phone number on top of it.
      You could still see the bright green sharpie-marker from over your miso soup. Yamada Hizashi: “Text me!” Even when he wasn’t on the radio or right there; you could still hear him yelling. Yamada… That was his surname. You hadn’t really cared enough to learn the names of heroes before. In fact, you avoided them any time you had the chance.
      In your years of being a vigilante; you knew that when heroes were coming it was game-over. You had to bolt out of there as fast as you could. That may be why most of your vigilantism was based more in stopping crimes before, but not AS they were happening.
      Speaking of which… You looked to your closet where the various items of your disguise hung dutifully together, ready to be adorned for another justice-serving romp. Honestly though, the sentiment was all gone. You’d have to incorporate the individual pieces into other outfits if need be.
      It was still sort of sad, though, and it was a huge bummer to look at when you couldn’t really do anything.
      You let out a groan and moved your way to your computer. Your life was changing too fast… Perhaps you couldn’t go bringing the fight to criminals anymore, but that had nothing to do with dropping tips to the authorities… Surely, that was just being a Good Samaritan! Your fingers glided skillfully over your pc’s keyboard visiting all the usual sites you hit up in order to get in on some tips.
 You also, idly turned on the radio.
      You had grown more used being on in the last week and you saw no harm in keeping that habit, you’d have loads of free time now. Besides, it was easier than opening up a music or news streaming service while you searched for… Something productive to do online. You scrolled and made a few mental notes of a few suspect chats, a few strange but ultimately unrelated hypothetical posts, but there was… Surprisingly very little. It was as if all the active forums and chats had just… Stopped.
      You closed your eyes and leaned back, looking back over to your outfit, then back to the radio. The sound of a bubbly pop song was playing as you thought about early Saturday morning.
“Why aren’t you a hero?... Cause’, personally, I thinkyou would be a great hero.”
      If only it were that simple…
 “You’re making a mistake.”
      You were doing what was best for you.
 “Imagine what would have happened if I hadn’t been in that shopping center on Sunday.”
      The villains probably would have made off with a fairly sizable amount of cash. Probably. Though, Snipe was nearly on his way. He probably would have gotten them first, he had a pretty effective hit ratio.
      Yes. You were certain everything would have been fine.
      Suddenly the joyous J-pop song screeched to an electric halt as a pre-recorded announcer calmly spoke into the Microphone.
“We interrupt this program to bring you a news alert as Pro Heroes frantically attempt to evacuate a local neighborhood in central Tokyo. A small group of villains have immolated a large portion of the neighborhood- their motives yet unclear- as Heroes from the surrounding area are pulling help and resources from the surrounding area including U.A. Highschool.”
      … What?
      “This message will repeat. All current citizens within the sector are instructed to please proceed calmly to the ends of the streets where a rescue Hero shall escort you safely to shelter. If anyone has any information regarding the attack, please, contact local authorities at-“
      They were pulling teachers from U.A? Surely that meant that Present Mic… “Yamada” would be there.
      A shiver made its way down your spine.
      Other heroes would be there, too. This is what they did for a living, they’d all be fine. He’d be fine.
      You placed your hand over your chest, realizing immediately you had done so because your chest was beating in frantic worry… They’d be fine. The Citizens would be fine. You weren’t needed… Everything was going to be fine.
      But what if it wasn’t going to be fine?
      Could you live with yourself knowing you did nothing? Knowing that people would get hurt- people would probably die?... Could you live with yourself knowing you had done nothing? Especially if it had been someone you knew?
      “You’re making a mistake.”
      You looked over at your outfit one last time. The way that it sat patiently on your closet door almost made it seem sentient. It called to you, begged you to take action, somehow. Surely you could slip in and out of the affected area just to check on everyone without them noticing?
 “… Imagine what would have happened…”
      No. No you promised… He had been, all things considering, very sparing on your proclivity to break the rules… But WHY were you so uncomfortable?
      You held your phone in front of you and looked at the number.
      To: Yamada
“I got your note.
Heard they were pulling UA teachers to help with that fire. You okay?
Please text back when you get this. I heard it’s really bad on the news.”
      Now all that was left to do was wait. Wait and hoped he’d text back… You could do that, right? Well, certainly you could. Your phone lit up moments later and you jumped on it practically like a cat does a mouse.
      From: Yamada
“   :D”
“Refrain!”
“:V  I Can’t text now. TTYL!”
 You let out a groan as he sent a small stream of texts your way… Called you Refrain… He was dead-set on that, wasn’t he?
      To: Yamada
“Do you need me to come and help?
      Augh. No. That was a bad message.
      To: Yamada
“Do you want me to run by?
      No, somehow that was even worse.
      To: Yamada
“I’m heading that way. Do you need me to get you anything for when you get out?”
      Without noticing you had gotten up and begun dressing yourself in your vigilante outfit- but you denied yourself the convenience of your wig and your gear. Not a vigilante. Not a vigilante… You looked over at the phone- it hadn’t gone off yet.
      Maybe you needed a few bottles of water… And some burn gel… Surely that’d be enough. For now, right?
        Hizashi had gotten your text and smiled mirthfully at his phone as he placed it back into his pocket… Only to be met with the reality that was the hellish inferno he was standing in right now. He let out a scoffing sort of sound as he placed the portable oxygen tank to his mouth and inhaled.
      Today had, honestly, turned rather sour. Saturday was his one scheduled “Day off” and here the villains went making a mess of things… Ahhh, but you had texted him. Finally. Maybe “Returning Hero” was a good name for you. Maybe. He’d have to wait and see if you came running into the fray clad in your home made costume.
      God, what was he going to tell Eraser?... What was he going to tell Midnight? That this person was a vigilante fighting on the side of the heroes—but they had saved him last week; so they were cool. Hah… He could practically feel Eraser’s death-glare and Midnight’s signature thumb-of-approval. Hahhhhhhhhh….
      Right, fantasize about this later. He was a pro with a job to do, and standing around like he was waiting for you wasn’t going to make the neighborhood any LESS evacuated or any less villain-free.
      Hah. Present Mic couldn’t imagine… You showing up to make sure he was okay, despite telling him you’d hang up your cape.
      Ah. One could dream, right?
        You couldn’t believe you were doing this!
      Even after you said you wouldn’t…. Here you were running from rooftop to roof-top in an attempt to avoid the crowded car and foot traffic below- using Backlash to bounce in between the allies you couldn’t cross on your own… This was taking a lot more out of you than originally anticipated- though you couldn’t help but feel a little exhilarated being back in your costume and on your way to help Yamada.
      Right. Just… Think about him as a person. Not a hero- he was a good person. A good person you were helping. Or checking in on. YEAH! That worked. You were just checking in on him!... Carrying five bottles of water, burn-gel, bandages, aloe, and other various medical supplies in your bag as you looked onward into the smoking neighborhood… And a small sugary snack…. Just in case.
      You took a moment to pause, let Backlash recharge and contemplate your most recent of life choices. What… Were you doing? It would have been so much easier to stand aside and let him do his job- see him after the fact. This may be giving him the wrong impression on how you view yourself as a hero…
      Hm… Well. He did just GIVE you his phone number to text. Maybe some of the miscommunication wasn’t all on you—no. Scratch that. It definitely was not just your fault… Speaking of communication; you figured now would be a good time to check your phone for any messages back.
      Nope. Not a single one.
      You felt your chest let out an involuntary sigh as you plopped yourself down on the roof’s edge… And tossed your wig to the side. No point in getting arrested for looking like a vigilante who just set fire to a neighborhood.
      To: Yamada
“Okay. I’m waiting nearby. Just text me when you’re getting out.”
      After you sent the message you could have sworn you regretted not sending more.
      To: Yamada
“We can still get diner food. If you want.”
        You must have waited… Hours on that rooftop. You couldn’t exactly remember when you had texted him the first time, but when you had finally realized how late it was getting blue skies were turning an orangey-pink. The smoke had died down a significant amount and you spent all that time watching news streams. No one mentioned a hero getting injured, or killed… Or anything.
      So now you just sat there like a fool, feeling guilty for even coming.
      To: Yamada
“Please tell me you’re still alive.”
 You sent that final text as a sort of final reminder to yourself the entire reason you were here was because you just wanted to make sure he was okay. You weren’t expecting a near instantaneous response.
      From: Yamada
“!!! AHHH Refrain!”
“I’m sorry I just got done! D:”
“Please don’t be mad! I just got your texts!”
      A relieved, if not slightly expectant groan worked its way into your mouth.
      From: Yamada
“I can afford another cheat day! :3”
“Should I come to you, or should we meet up somewhere?”
“Your pick. My treat. I made you wait.”
“Sorry about that btw.”
      Well now you felt the bigger fool for coming in your full costume… On foot. There would probably bet little time to run back to your apartment, change and be back without seeming suspicious. Augh… Well. You supposed You could leave your jacket here if need be. This was just an outfit after all.
      To: Yamada
“Let’s meet up. What’s nearby? I’m pretty sure I’ll find something I like no matter where we go…”
“And don’t worry about it.”
        This… Was becoming a disaster.
      “Hey hey, Refrain!” Yamad-… No. Present Mic called you as you entered in the building of the family restaurant. In all fairness you had expected him to look like a Hero. He had just gotten off-duty, after all, but that didn’t mean you were any more equipped to deal with it and it felt… So strange… Because you wanted to see him- and that terrified you.
      But that wasn’t all.
      “Oh, is this your friend?” came another Hero- in their full hero regalia. She was tall, slender but curvaceous in all the right places and made absolutely zero attempt to hide who she was.
      “M-Midnight… And-“ And to her right was someone you’d also recognize… Though he seemed plainly normal at a first glance. That was Eraserhead.
      “In the flesh!” the indigo-haired woman purred. “It’s nice to finally meet Hizashi’s date. He’s been staring at his phone and giggling like crazy since we got here.”
      Your eyes darted to Present Mic who shrugged sheepishly. “I was not giggling.”
      “Yeah,” Eraser said, his tone absolutely monotone. You couldn’t tell if he was bored, irritated or just plain tired… Maybe all three. “You were.”
      “See?” Midnight said. “Oh, but we’re sorry to crash your date. We’ll grab our food and go, but I had to meet this person Yamada’s been talking about all week.”
      You looked perplexed for a moment, and maybe it was plain to see. Midnight tilted her head. Did- did she just call Present Mic Yamada?... “Are… Are you okay? You seem a bit pale.”
      Date?
      “Ah—“ Present Mic reached out to put a hand on your shoulder and lean you towards him. Your heart was racing- but for all the wrong reasons. “Been a stressful day. They’ll feel better after they have some food in them….” You saw him glance to you. “… Right? Seriously, now I’m worried. You okay?”
      Your legs were turning to jello beneath you as your vision began to wobble.
      “Don’t just stand there,” came the sudden voice from between them as Eraser-head grabbed your other shoulder. That made you hold your breath for the longest moment until he had you sitting down in a chair.
      “How long as it been since you’ve eaten?” the dark-clad hero asked. All eyes were on you, and frankly your heartbeat was only making things worse… At this rate it wouldn’t be too long before you were having a full panic attack… What… What was going on?
      You were panicking… You were panicking…
      Wait… You were just… Panicking.
      You swallowed and rubbed your eyes. “I- I I’m sorry…” you said, forcing a smile, despite the fact your heart was still pounding. “I- I was so worried. H-Hizashi didn’t text me for so long. I just—“
      And just like that the tension between the four of you fell exponentially. It even fell in you somewhat when you saw Midnight make a small little “Aw” before she grabbed Eraserhead’s shoulder. “Give them some space Aizawa. They just need to sit down for a moment….” She looked between the three of you. “We’ll go place our order. You two just… Sit here and chat, I think.”
      Sure enough the two of them left- they were still in eye and in earshot- technically, but they were gone. You watched as they contemplated the menu they were looking at before you looked to Present Mic- his face riddled with an expression you couldn’t describe.
      “Sorry,” you said, clutching your chest. “I wasn’t—I wasn’t expecting other heroes,” you said after a moment.
      You watched him swallow, then sit down beside you. He scooted his chair a little closer so you two were nearly flush together before he leaned over… To anyone looking it would seem like he was just resting his head on yours… But you were able to hear him.
      “… You’re scared of heroes?” he asked.
      You didn’t even have to answer him. The tension in your body could be felt immediately… Yeah. You were horrified of Heroes, actually. It was WHY you hadn’t tried to become one in the first place. Ever since you were little heroes were that constant thing which haunted your nightmares and followed you in the dark at night after curfew.
 “… And you still came to check on me?” he asked, his voice filled with disbelief. Humor, almost. After a long moment of pausing he let out a sigh and stretched his arms above his head. “Unnnnnbelievable…” he said in more of a humored way than anything else… And then you felt something clamp around your head.
      You looked over to Mic where he was holding some sort of cordless MP3. The sound of little tumblers rang in your ears as he selected something for you to listen to. When he was done you heard the sound of guitar began to play as he resumed his position on your head- trying to avoid putting pressure on the headphones that were now on your head.
      Your ears perked for a moment. “… Is this… Ellegarden?”
      “Mm-hm,” he said as you helplessly began to bob your head slightly. “Is this good?”
      “Yeah…” you said, feeling him sling an arm over your shoulder.
      You leaned a little more into him. Just close enough to smell the cheap cologne he was wearing underneath his jacket.
      “Did you know refrain has two meanings?... It can either mean ‘to repeat’, or ‘to stop one’s self’.”

My Reaction to “Batman and Robin”
Oh God here we go.  Just in time for the holidays...
*externally screaming*
*deep breath then continues screaming*
What’s with these opening credits?
Do they really have to put creases everywhere on the Batsuit?
Is Robin wearing eyeshadow?!?
Hot Wheels:  The Movie
“This is why Superman works alone.”  Oh God, Superman’s in this universe?
My sister:  It’s the Nicholas Cage version.
You gotta have this big elaborate light show to reveal Dick’s motorcycle
Is that Pat Hingle [as Commissioner Gordon]?  God, just go away.
Not gonna lie, I like the makeup they did for Mr. Freeze’s face
“Hi Freeze, I’m Batman!”
The hole left in the wall when Dick crashes through it is the Robin symbol.  SUBTLE!
“It’s the hockey team from hell!”  I mean, yeah.
Random close ups!
Ice skates!
Freeze just threw that guy straight up in the air.
This whole movie looks like it took place in a rave.  Like, what’s with all the neon lighting in an art museum?
I like the bottom of Mr. Freeze’s boots.  At least he’ll get traction
[Mr. Freeze rockets out of the museum] *sings*  If you want to view paradise...
So where does Freeze find all this time to make these contraptions in the first place?
George Clooney’s acting is like a stick:  it’s wooden
If Dick yells “Cowabunga!,” I swear to God...
“Cowabunga!”  Oh my God no
There is no way Batman can catch up to Mr. Freeze in free fall.  10 ft per second, assholes!
The colors in this movie would legit make a pretty awesome commission color palette
Robin was just frozen mid-air?!?!?
*sing songs*  Shaky cam!
Chuck him [the frozen Robin] at the wall!
Matte painting!
What did she (Dr. Isley) just say?
AN:  We’re only 15 minutes in?!?
Is she [Dr. Isley] speaking into a tube of lipstick?
Antonio Diego?
This whole scene with the introduction to Bane looks like something out of Rocky Horror for some reason.  You got a couple weird people in suits watching the whole thing up on a balcony and you got a wacky-ass scientist with crazy hair
That’s.... gross...
Pointing... more pointing!
So dumping a whole bunch of toxins on Dr. Isley is gonna turn her into a psycho plant seductress?  OK...
I like how the security camera zooms in on Victor becoming Mr. Freeze
George Clooney looks way too smug to be Bruce Wayne for some reason.  Grow some hair!
AN:  Oh my God, we’re only 23 minutes in... *whines* this is a two hour movie!
Dutch Angle!
I do like the purple lighting in the lab
*Poison Ivy appears in the middle of the lab from underground*  How?
“My [Ivy] blood has been replace with aloe, my skin with chlorophyll.”
My sister:  Moisturize your skin with my blood!
Me:  MOISTURIZE ME!
Chlorophyll is a pigment.  If her [Ivy’s] skin is now made up of chlorophyll, shouldn’t she be green?
Is Woodrue’s tongue turning green?
“Hell, I am Mother Nature!”  That’s like probably one of the only good lines in this movie.
*starts singing “Mr. Snow Miser”*
I like Freeze’s polar bear slippers!
This mofo [Freeze] is blue!
Why does Mr. Freeze have a cigar?
This whole movie plot is ripped from an episode of “Batman:  The Animated Series.”  Seriously, the episode’s called “Cold Comfort.”
The actress playing Nora Fries looks waaaay too young for some reason.
George Clooney is wearing a turtleneck... for the love of God, wear something else!
“I’m not used to this type of luxury...”  You [Barbara] go to a boarding school.  Shut up!
This looks like one of the streets used in the Batman TV show in the 60s.
That wig Ivy just put on has the Pulp Fiction bangs
Who’s the lady in the pink suit?
Julie Madison?  Why don’t we see more of her besides being a one-off girlfriend?
OK, I like the trench coat Ivy has on
They used the word “primordial” in the script.  I’m impressed.
“... warm-blooded opressors...” Aren’t you [Ivy] warm-blooded though?  You’re human...
Holy crap the makeup on Mr. Freeze without the costume is great
*The costume ball starts*  This is “The Mask” all over again
This is literally the same set they used for the art museum in the beginning of the movie
There’s a dude in the background wearing a leopard-print tuxedo
*mutters*  The hell is this music?
I actually like the eye makeup on Ivy
“I’ll bring everything you see here and everything you don’t.”  Mic drop.
Was that a banana peel sound effect?
My sister:  Yes it was.
“Good night.”  OK, that was funny.
Where is Ivy still there after Freeze left?
*The camera pans up a giant statue*  HANDSSSSS.... TOUCHING HANDSSSS...
Parkour!
Oh my gosh the CGI
Redbird?
REEED ROBIN YUMMMMM
ExPLOsions...
*The Batmobile gets frozen and crashes*  Oh no, not the merchandise!
“We have very little time.”  For what?
Michael Gough:  MVP of the movie
Did they just use a lightsaber sound effect to indicate the end of the flashback?
Ominous green lighting!
They [the Arkham guards] put him [Freeze] in an ice box...
Whoa...
The tile son the floor in Victor’s cell line up to make a snowflake
*Radioactive ghetto people show up*  I would legit go as one of them for Halloween
This movie is just one big sound stage
Where’d she [Ivy] get the seeds from?
George Clooney legit sounds like Mel Gibson’s John Smith from “Pocahontas”
There’s a floating face!
I think that’s actually Coolio
AN:  Yes it is
What is the point of this whole motorcycle race thing?  There’s literally no point to this scene.
My sister:  Did they just really wanna show off the set?
Me:  Well this movie is literally one giant toy commercial so...
That green screen was terrible
“Alfred’s not sick.  He’s dying.”  Well way to whip that out, movie!
You can tell that they put some effort into the characterization of Freeze in this movie.  It’s just surrounded by a bunch of campy, stupid stuff.
“Men are the most absurd of God’s creations.”  Man was one of the first ones, bitch...
I have the Poison Ivy gif of “Not good!”  saved on my laptop
Sorry Freeze, only one person looks good in chrome
*Freeze freezes the pipes to make them explode*  Well that was quick
Liking the statues of the absolutely ripped dudes on the fireplace mantle in Wayne Manor.  Schumacher, I see you.
*Batman opens up the secret bookcase in Freeze’s old lair to find Nora*  IT’S MISTER WHITE CHRISTMAS, IT’S MISTER SNOW!
I like that there’s a convenient lever from “Heat” to “Freeze”
*Bane beats Robin*  I was wondering what would break first:  your spirit... or your body!
“Why are all the gorgeous ones homicidal maniacs?”  Point!
Oh there you go.  Commissioner Gordon actually did something in this movie.
Is that slime?
“I’m [Dick] going solo!”  But not Han Solo.  He’s not cool enough to be Han Solo
My sister:  He’s whiny enough to be Ben Solo
Me:  Except Ben Solo was written better.
Oh, Ivy’s green boots are awesome
Freeze’s eyes look orange in this scene
“First...” Gotham!
“Gotham!”  Then the world!
“And then... the world!”  Haha!
“Adam... and Evil!”  BOO...
OH MY GOD- oh, that’s Bruce.  OK.
*Bruce and Dick argue over Ivy’s influence over them*  It’s called pheromones, guys.  Everyone has them.
What the... heck was that transition?
Oh I like that dress Ivy’s wearing...
Slow... motion...
Ellie Macpherson (Julie Madison) kinda looks like Jennifer Garner
Oh just smash it [the Bat-signal] in!  You don’t need to actually lift it up!
I just realized what’s wrong with George Clooney in this movie:  it always looks like he has a five o’clock shadow above his top lip
*Bruce hugs Alfred*  Aaawww!
The signature on the portrait wasn’t there a second ago!
*cracks up at the computer saying “Access Granted”*
Why is a telescope powered on crystals?
“... will you trust me now?”  *in best angsty teenage impression*  No, because he’s [Dick] got his eyeshadow on!
OK. Arnold’s evil laugh is getting there.  A little more work then he’s got it
*Barbara puts on her Batsuit*  Eeewww... eeww!
How the hell did Ivy set up her evil lair?
“Hi there.”  *in best George Clooney voice*  Hi Robin, I’m Ivy!
“How about ‘Slippery When Wet?’“ 
*actually has to collapse backwards on floor to laugh*
My sister:  Her eyeshadow’s awesome
Me:  She [Ivy] looks like a drag queen!
My sister:  It’s the eyebrows!
*Robin peels off his rubber lips*  WHAAAAAAA?!?!?!?!?
Oh my God, look at her [Ivy’s] bangles!
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait!  They rewound the tape when Robin resurfaces from the pool!
My sister:  *sings*  My name’s Blurryface and I care what you think...
*Ivy’s plants suddenly eat her*  ...Why?
Oh she’s not dead.  OK...
*Camera pans up giant statue*  Aaaabbsss... Schumacher loves them...
*Random person in telephone booth gets frozen*  NO, NOT THE TARDIS!
NO, NOT THE DOG!
He was frozen mid-pee though.  Youch.
WHAAT IS THIS?!?!?!?
Why do all the Batsuits have silver accents now?  Unless the silver bits are just snap-on attachments...
*sing songs*  Free-zing... freezing the city!
PLAnets...
My sister:  Now I just want the planetarium fight from “The Great Game” to happen
Me:  Oh my God... we should watch that instead!
My sister:  Right?!?!?
You seriously could take any shot from this movie and all the colors in them would make up an awesome color palette
*Dick unleashes the grappling hook at the last minute and successfully latches onto something*  I CALL BULL!
Where the hell did he [Bane] come from?!?
AN:  Oh God we’re almost done with this movie YAAAAYY!
*Bane literally deflates*  Eeeewwww!
Oh my gosh, that 1997 CGI though
[Some of the ice in the city proceeds to melt]  *sings*  Here comes the sun...
*Mr. Freeze lets out an evil chuckle*  What a story, Mark!
Oh my God, that green screen though!
*The Bat gang manages to get rid of all the ice covering the city*  This... is bull... shit.
The ice actually wiggles on the cop car door!
THERE IS NO WAY BATMAN GOT THAT FOOTAGE OF IVY!
I call bullshit on this whole movie!
Oh, and he [Freeze] just had the cure [to Nora and Alfred] on him the whole time?
OK, I actually liked the music for that scene.  What the heck?
OK, for being a man-hater, Ivy, you’re pretty obsessed about one.
“Winter has come at last.”  Game of Thrones did it better.
The official catchphrase for this movie:  Hi [insert name], I’m [insert other name]
HEELP!  THEY’RE CASTING FOR BATMAN UNCHAINED!
*in best Batman voice*  DON’T MAKE ME PUSH YOU DOWN, O’DONNELL [Robin/Dick]!  I’LL DO ANYTHING TO GET OUT OF THIS FRANCHISE!

Chapter 37: Ice Cream with Josh
Hello everyone! I’m back and I’m so sorry I kept you all waiting for this new chapter but here it is! This chapter is so sweet and I hope you all like it!
Remember to check Anastasia’s Instagram that is on fire:
Anastasia_Truman  ❤️️
Thanks to everyone who reads the fic, much love to you all! ♥
Read chapter 36
Next morning, Anastasia woke up feeling in heaven. She was trying to process the weekend she just had. Not only she met her lifetime crush, she worked with him and they shared a drinking session. Cloud nine was such a small place for all the joy and happiness she was feeling. She even managed to get Josh out of her head for a while; the constant knot on her stomach was fully undone while she was in Las Vegas.
She brushed her teeth, tied her hair up in a bun, took a quick shower and grabbed a long Pilots tee shirt (Her dad’s legendary rock band), put it on and went downstairs, When she was walking through her living room she saw a pink spot on her kitchen that wasn’t normally there, she smiled and walked towards her best friend.
 -          I’m gonna take all of your keys back. I’m tired of you all sneaking into my house! – Anastasia said smiling.
-          I woke up extremely happy this morning and I wanted to have a great breakfast but Peyton wasn’t there so I came here to have breakfast together – Mandy said turning around to see Anastasia but the midnight-blue-haired girl notice that her friend wasn’t, in fact, happy. Mandy showed a serious face.
-          What’s wrong? – Anastasia asked. She really wanted that breakfast.
-          This is wrong! – Mandy said showing a little orange jar on her right hand.
 Anastasia understood everything then. Mandy found her Xanax jar and it was empty. But it wasn’t because Anastasia took them all. After that afternoon with Josh in Orlando she never took another Xanax, instead as soon as she got to LA she threw the pills on the crusher on her kitchen sink but she never got rid of the jar. How stupid she felt in that moment. If she explained that to Mandy, her friend wouldn’t believe her because of the addiction she had on the past.
 -          I’m sorry. I took them on the tour but I swear I won’t do it again – Anastasia told her friend.
-          I’m so disappointed and so angry right now, An – Mandy said – You know that if you have any issue, any problem you can come and talk to me and I will help you find a solution, I will cheer you up! Don’t go back to Xanax. It cost you a lot to get out of it years ago – Mandy’s face showed her rage.
-          I’m sorry. I swear that it was just one time – Anastasia was begging her friend for comprehension.
-          I just feel so mad that you didn’t come to me – Mandy said.
-          Sometimes I think I’m a load to you.
-          Never! I don’t want to see you bad – Mandy walked to Anastasia and gave her a tight hug, Anastasia embraced her friend like there was no tomorrow. They had a long time without giving themselves that kind of hugs that goes straight to the soul.
-          I’m fine. Believe me, especially after this weekend! – Anastasia said with a smile.
-          I’m going to serve breakfast and you have to tell me everything – Mandy said.
 The two friends had some eggs, bacon and waffles and Anastasia told Mandy every single little detail about her weekend in Las Vegas.
-          I saw the picture on your Instagram with the red wig – Mandy said laughing – I miss your red hair, which was the beginning of your witch-to-be look.
-          I know! I looked amazing, don’t you think?
-          You did! But how is he? – Mandy wanted to know.
-          He is even better than I imagined. He is so sweet and so nice. He is not that cocky asshole we saw on stage or videos. We had dinner, we made the video and then we had some drinks and we talked about everything you can imagine, especially his divorce – Mandy opened her mouth big.
-          He got divorced? – She was shocked.
-          Yes! He has been divorced for around a year – Anastasia said sipping some coffee from her cup – Their new album is about that… Oh! – She almost forgot – He kissed my hand twice!
-          What a gentleman! – Mandy said
-          It was incredible! And I had a great time with Steph too.
-          Time is always great if you spend it with Steph! – Mandy laughed – I’m so happy for you! You got out of the drama for at least three days.
-          I know – Anastasia smiled – I’m still over the moon! – Mandy smiled too.
-          I gotta go because Peyton’s mom is in town and we are going to have lunch and then we hit the stadium for the game tonight.
-          Sounds fun! – Anastasia said.
-          It is fun! My mother in law is so sweet. I’m so lucky.
-          You are, my friend, you are!
-          I’ll leave the dishes to you.
-          That’s the problem with people sneaking into my house to make breakfast… I have to clean later.
-          I love you! – Mandy closed the door behind her.
Anastasia sighed, looked at the mess Mandy had left in the kitchen and began to clean it. But she was still happy, even doing the dishes. She heard her phone ringing and something inside told her that it was Josh, she left the dishes half done and ran to answer the phone and, in fact, it was him calling.
-          Hey! – He said.
-          Hi – Was all she managed to say.
-          I was about to do some grocery shopping and I decided to call you to see if you wanted to join me – That was weird – If you aren’t busy, of course.
-          No. I’m not busy – Anastasia said – pick me up.
-          That was easy – He said as a joke but it made Anastasia feel a little bit ashamed – I’ll be there in ten.
 She ran upstairs to change into more appropriate clothes for leaving the house. She chose a pair of black joggers and a black tee shirt with the word “witch” in front, just as the one she used to wear onstage sometimes. In exactly ten minutes Josh was blowing the horn in front of her house.
-          My favorite witch – He said looking at her tee shirt.
-          My favorite… guitarist? – She said mocking him and laughing.
-          At least I’m your favorite something.
-          Don’t be silly, you are my favorite in so many things like… - She mimicked the process of thinking – Like… You are in one of my favorites bands, does that count?
-          You are so funny today! – He said faking a smile.
-          Why are you buying groceries if we’re leaving on Friday again? – Anastasia said.
-          I’m tired of eating out – He answered.
-          Did Lauren leave? – She had to ask because the matter was in her head for a long time that morning. He looked at her before answering.
-          Yes. She flew back to New York last night.
-          Cool – An wasn’t going to prolong subject. Josh looked at her again like waiting for a further answer but she didn’t give it to him.
Josh drove to a grocery shop in downtown Santa Monica. It felt so weird for Anastasia do mundane things like groceries with Josh. She was buying some things for herself too and they looked like a couple buying food for their home. And the atmosphere was so tense, as if Josh wanted to say something and he just couldn’t get it out of his chest, at the same time that they were there trying to choose if coconut shampoo smelled better than aloe shampoo.
-          Aloe doesn’t have any smell – Anastasia said – And you know how I love coconut.
-          You know what was cool? Those kid’s shampoos that smelled like watermelon or bubblegum – Josh said.
-          Yes! Let’s find those! I used to use the watermelon one and my hair smelled great the entire day!
-          Are we actually going to buy kid’s shampoo? – Josh said laughing.
-          Yes! – Anastasia confirmed it laughing too.
-          You’re crazy!
-          You already know that – She found the shampoo – Take the watermelon one and I’ll take the bubblegum one – Josh looked at her with an incredulous look – I’m being serious.
-          Alright… I’ll take it – He was laughing.
-          Your hair will smell amazing! – Anastasia said smiling.
-          Let’s have lunch together! – Josh said suddenly – I’ll cook you something. What do you want to eat?
-          For real? – Anastasia was accepting all his propositions that day like it wasn’t a big deal but inside of her it was a huge deal, indeed – Mmm, I don’t know… What about some grilled steaks and roasted veggies?
-          Sounds good. Deal.
-          At your place? – Josh looked at her straight into her eyes like if the answer was obvious.
-          Of course!
Josh started cooking the steaks at the grill in his beautiful backyard, the only place that wasn’t filled with instruments, while Anastasia was cleaning and chopping some peppers, tomatoes, onions and corn cobs to roast then in the oven. Not only they went to shop for groceries like a couple, now they were cooking lunch like if that parallel universe where Josh having a girlfriend and An having experienced a weekend with the love of her teenage years didn’t exist.
-          Did you have fun this weekend? – Josh asked suddenly when they were seating at his dining table. It felt like a release, she knew he’d wanted to bring it up the whole day.
-          More than you can ever imagine – She answered.
-          You really like his band – Josh said looking and the food on his plate.
-          I do. Well, it was one of those bands you like when you are a teenager. I use to love them then I lost track of what they were doing, but now Mark is working in the studio with them.
-          Cool – Josh said, the same cold way An replied to him when he told her about Lauren a couple of hours ago – And what did you do? – He went on with it.
-        We mostly filmed, but in our spare time we had dinner with Richard, the lead singer…
-        ‘We’?
-          Yes, Mark and Stephanie were there too. They got engaged! – The situation was as weird as you could get.
-          That’s amazing! – Josh said – They seem so in love.
-          They are! They were born to be together.
-          Yeah. Some people are – He stopped eating and kept looking at her – What else did you do in Vegas?
-          Well, we had lunch and when we were done filming the video – She stopped for a moment, doubting if she should continue talking but she liked to push Josh’s buttons and deep inside her brain, and her heart, she was angry for the time he spent with Lauren – I had some drinks with Richard… just to celebrate – Anastasia felt as if Josh’s stare was piercing her brain.
-          Cool – he said again before giving a big bite to his corn cob.
They didn’t say another word until the plates were empty.
 -          That was so good! – She said taking the plates from the table – Here, I’ll do the dishes – She took a plate from Josh’s hands.
-          Wanna watch a movie or something? – He asked her – I don’t know if you have any plans but…
-          I don’t have any plans but why don’t we go to the beach? – She asked him.
-          The beach?
-          Yeah. Let’s go and just lay on the sand. It’s a nice day out – She was finishing cleaning.
-          Alright. It’s a good idea.
And so they went. On the way to Venice Beach, Anastasia’s phone began buzzing and as she grabbed it she saw a couple of messages from Richard, she felt bad about reading them while on Josh’s car but the curiosity was huge.
“Hey. Hope you are well, I just wanted to tell you that I’ve seen some scenes from the video and you look beautiful”. She read the first.
 “You will be the first to watch it when is out”, the second one said and she smiled like a child.
 -          Do you smile like that when you read my texts? – Josh asked.
-          What? – She thought she heard wrong.
-          You read that text with such a smile on your face – She heard right.
-          Is that a wrong thing?
-          No. It’s the face I make when I read your texts – He was impossible.
-          I’m going to leave the facial expression I make when I read your text to your imagination – She said but Josh didn’t take it as well as she thought. He started to drive faster, as he did when he was angry. She decided not to reply to Richard right away.
They arrived at Venice Beach and the beach was mostly empty, which was always something amazing to catch. Josh brought a big towel with him so they could sit on the sand.
-          I love this place so much – Anastasia said.
-          Why? – Josh asked looking at the sand.
-          Why? – She looked at him – There is such beauty in this place. So many things happening, so many people from so many places around the world. There’s the city and there’s the beach…
-          It is a place with so much falseness – Josh said still looking at the sand. He didn’t catch Anastasia’s eyes even though she was looking at him. She knew he was angry.
-          There’s falseness everywhere, not just here. But you need to only see the good. All the people that move here to make their dreams true…
-          How many actually achieve that?
-          What’s wrong? – Anastasia was done – I only wanted to get some peace at the beach shore. I mean, look! The beach is empty; do you know how rare is that? And you are there, looking at the sand being angry for some reason…
-          I’m not angry – He looked at her straight to her eyes for the first time since they arrived to the beach – It’s just… I don’t know. It’s hard to explain.
-          I’m here to listen.
-          I know but I also know you won’t be there for too long.
-          What do you mean? – Anastasia was confused.
-          I feel like I’m losing you, An – He said without breaking the eye contact.
-          Losing me? From what?
-          From whom…
-          Josh, is this because of my weekend at Vegas?
-          It’s about everything you will do. I feel like I can’t make up my mind and I know you won’t here forever, I know that if somebody appears and wants to take you he’s going to do it because I can’t make up my fucking mind.
-          I’m going to ask you something crazy – He looked back to the sand – By any chance did you read my writing notebook that Eric has because he’s making notes for some new songs? I wrote a song called ‘Make Up Your Mind’ and it’s about you – Josh looked at An again – I promised myself that I wasn’t going to write songs about any other guy but this thing that I have with you has turned into a fucking roller coaster – She laughed.
-          Would you be mad if I did?
-          Well… I know Eric didn’t give you permission to read it because he knows I don’t like people to sneak into my lyric notebook – He looked at her again – But no. I wouldn’t be mad about it.
-          I’m sorry. I just couldn’t resist. I’m so jealous of the way you write songs that I wanted to see if I could learn something. I guess I got more than what I was looking for.
-          That will teach you to stay away from other people’s notebooks – Anastasia laughed but Josh looked to the floor one more time and she just hugged him – Look at me – She said to him without breaking the hug. Their faces were so close – I don’t know what’s going to happen, you don’t know what’s going to happen so why not just enjoy this moment, right now, without worrying about an uncertain future? – He just looked at her with the tenderest eyes and that gave Anastasia the push to kiss him. It wasn’t a long kiss but it was meaningful, it was one of those kisses that made both smile after, and they did. She saw Josh smiling for the first time that afternoon – Let’s enjoy today and this beautiful sunset.
Sunsets in California were something out of this world. The sky turned into so many shades of blue and pink and red, it didn’t matter where in the state you were, at sunset it was mandatory to stop and look at the sky for a few minutes. Josh put his arm around Anastasia while she rested her head on his chest to view that show the sky was giving to them. After that she remembered the ice cream shop she discovered with Mandy last time they were there and Josh obviously agreed to go and get one.
-          Guess I should take you home – Josh said while getting into his car.
-          Yes, you should – Anastasia laughed – I need to start packing because we aren’t coming back to LA before going to London and I need to pack a whole shitload of things.
-          I’m so sad I’m going to miss Glasto – He started to drive.
-          You can watch it, there’ll be a livestream!
-          Really? I need to plan that. I’m so damn proud of you all, how far Dead Curse have come.
-          I know. I will probably cry on that stage. It has been a personal dream for a long time.
-          You deserve it. You all do. I’m so jealous of what you guys have with DC.
-          You have that with Dot Hacker.
-          It’s not the same. I mean it fulfills me… to a certain point.
-          You’ll never be content with anything you do, will ya? – Josh shrugged.
Anastasia wanted to ask Josh if he wanted to stay the night at her place, but she felt that with everything that happened that afternoon it was enough Josh for a day. They shared another kiss in the car once they were in front of her house and it was a much more passionate one. To her, it felt like he didn’t want to let her go, the way he grabbed her lips with his lips woke up a bunch of emotions inside of her, but it had been enough for that day.
This chapter was inspired by a particular Florence and The Machine songe (By now you all guessed that I LOVE Flo) I couldn’t find a good video on Youtube but here is a LINK to the lyrics, sorry for that. This is also the song that Josh read on Anastasia’s notebook.

How to Style Your Natural Hair, According to Issa Rae's Hairstylist Felicia Leatherwood
Getty ImagesKatie Collins - PA Images
Since the day I decided to break up the "creamy crack" (relaxer), I spent years switching between every protective style you can think of—box braids, Senegalese twists, cornrows, and weaves—to avoid having to deal with taking care my natural hair. Then, college happened, and spending $150-$200 at the hair salon every other month didn't quite fit within my $2-pizza-slice-for-dinner college-girl budget. So I took the plunge and wore my natural hair for a few months (fall semester, which, I should note isn't the best weather for natural hair), and even dyed it brown for some added oomph.

I can't even begin to count how many natural hair videos I watched on YouTube at the time in the hopes of finding fresh, quick styles. After months of failed twist-out attempts, countless nights of falling asleep without actually twisting my hair (I prefer the lazy-girl routine), and lots of breakage from lack of care, I came to one sad conclusion: I didn't know what I was doing. I went back to protective styles without hesitation.
But in October 2016, HBO premiered Insecure starring Issa Rae, a comedy series chronicling the life of a modern-day black woman and the beauty and flaws that come with that label. I was in awe of Issa's character, not only because I finally saw someone on the big-screen that looked like me, but because she unabashedly embraced her natural hair in a way I was so desperately trying to do. Frohawks, braided crowns, side cornrows, and more unconventional styles adorned Issa's head throughout the season. "How on earth does she come up with all these different styles?" I thought to myself. Well, she owes it all to Felicia Leatherwood.
"I met Issa Rae about five years ago at a dinner and we ended up sitting next to each other," the celebrity hairstylist told ELLE.com. "I gave her my business card and told her to give me a call if she ever needed help with her natural hair. She made that call and I've been working with her ever since."

Leatherwood cut her teeth in hair styling as a braider in her local community in Los Angeles, but after developing an allergy to perm relaxers, she decided to learn about caring for her own hair. Now, she's helping other women to do the same.
"If you have beautiful natural hair, why give money to someone else when you can learn to work with it?"
"No one understood my hair," she added. "I have women who say, ‘Hey Felicia, I don’t know what to do with my natural hair,’ and I have this platform to help you all figure it out, so it was important for me to take the opportunity to use it so women won't feel the need to spend so much money on wigs. I’m trying to help women understand that wigs should only be an option, like if you’re in the entertainment industry where your hair is constantly being manipulated or you’re experiencing something medical like alopecia. If you have beautiful natural hair, why give money to someone else when you can learn to work with your own natural hair?"
Ahead, Felicia Leatherwood breaks down the best way to style your natural hair, regardless of what stage you're in.
Stage 1: Buzzcut, Big Chop, Teeny-Weeny Afro (TWA)
So you've decided to undergo a big chop and restart your natural hair journey. No worries: curling creams and gels will be your best friend. "Don't think about the hair too hard, you kind of have to let it do its thing," Leatherwood advises. "If you want to define your curls, reach for a curling cream or gel and work in the product in little by little. You want to work in small sections and massage the product onto your scalp so it can seep into the cuticle."

For TWA and tapered cuts like Taraji P. Henson's (above), Felicia recommends a detangling brush to help coat your strands with the product and separate and lift the strands to increase definition. "Your finger can really go through and define all of your hair, but the brush can get to all the strands," she says.

Stage 2: Short to Medium-Sized Afro
"If you go to seasons two and three of Insecure, you’ll see how much Issa’s hair has grown, right down to her chin. But shrinkage is a huge hurdle," Felicia says. One way to combat shrinkage? Clip-ins. "It affords you some volume and length but still lets your hair be free, not completely covered. Clip-ins also allow you to play with style," she continued. "You can do fro-hawks, up-dos, cornrows. I also like to play with those afro-ponytail puffs."
Felicia also suggests protective styling because it "gives you your time back—you can sleep a little longer in the morning and take vacations without having to worry about what you’re going to do with your hair." She continued: "People forget that when you put your hair in a protective style, it's the best time to care of the scalp because the scalp is easier to get to. Oil your scalp and use all your growth products!"

Stage 3: Bra-Length/Shoulder-Length
At this point, many woman achieve their desired lengths but tend to stick to wash-and-gos or twist outs. According to Felicia, this stage is the perfect time to play with accessories and really test your hair's versatility. "I like look at straight hairstyles and turning them into textured hairstyles," she says. "Yes, you can do twist-outs so your hair can hang loose but high-ponytails, especially with a few cornrows or little gold accessories can add to any look. I feel like whatever can be done with straight hair can be also be done with textured hair."

Stage 4: Back-Length
"Doing twist-outs in your hair regularly gives you the perfect amount of curl definition. Let your hair can hang loose, let it do its thing!" she suggests. "But please don't forget to deep condition! Women get to a certain length and just put their hair in a ponytail and leave it alone but you have to condition at twice a month. You can leave it on for 15 minutes or even overnight if you need major hydration."

keranique
Other Herbal Locks Oil Types
If you didn't find a supplement you want to use above, there are many other types of organic hair oils. For example, various other popular oils are olive oil, coconut essential oil, Jojoba engine oil, and rosemary natural and organic oil. Depending on what results you want to achieve, there is certainly surely someone to work for you. For example, if you are suffering from dandruff and unwanted flakes, you may use warm rosemary organic oil and apply it to the very best of your mind and scalp; you will not consider the difference it will make! The other styles of essential oil are also very beneficial; jojoba essential oil is wonderful for moisturizing and detangling, coconut essential oil strengthens, and olive oil not only strengthens but also nourishes your beautiful strands.
I wish to begin this information by stating that we myself am on the fast trail to baldness. In my own case I've come to accept the fact that I am going bald, and also have embraced it by going for the shaven headed look for quite some time now.
For me, it isn't really a major problem. However for a lot of men, it is, of course, a real concern, and I've noticed that a lot of these people will spend tons of their time looking for anti-baldness treatments.
At this time it seems as if keranique hair progress supplements are really popular with many bald and receding men because of Har Vokse, for example, just lately sold 50,000 in its first week after taking place sale in the UK for the very first time.
So why are these keranique hair growth nutritional vitamin supplements so popular right now?
Well, I have spent some time visiting a few of the hair damage forums and areas, and any difficulty. many of these products not only help to prevent any further hair loss but also help to stimulate new keranique hair growth as well.
I think we have all heard about products such as Rogaine and Propecia because they are heavily promoted on Television. However whilst they do work for some people, users could also experience certain side effects when working with these keranique treatments.
If you take hair progress supplements, however, there are generally no side effects at all because they're essentially supplements which contain a lot of healthy vitamins. There are generally no added things that may cause any problems.
This is one reason these supplements are actually popular right now. Another reason is that the only real another alternate (aside from using a wig) is to endure keranique hair transplant surgery, like Wayne Rooney for example.
As you almost certainly know, this can cost thousands (Rooney's hair transplant reportedly cost ?30,000), and in this economic climate people simply cannot afford this treatment, particularly when there are no promises that it'll actually work. They would much rather spend a little fraction of the cost on hair expansion vitamins that could give them similar results.
Can you really make your keranique hair grow using everyday materials? Some home cures for hair development could, and I highlight COULD, do the job.
