Dabble request: F reader with Dieter Bravo. He finally wins a major award and the reader decides to award him with smutty sex
THE AWARD.
I slightly changed it and had them enter a bet… I hope that’s okay and I hope you like it. Also you sent this in April and I missed it, i’m so sorry it took so long.
Summary: you jokingly bet that you’ll fuck your best friend dieter bravo if he wins an oscar.
Warnings: Smut. P in V. Oral. (M&F receiving). Betting. Strong language. Dieter Bravo being… Dieter Bravo.
Pairing: Dieter Bravo x F! Reader.
Word Count: 2053
A/N: I tried LOL. Thank you to @littlebirdsbookshelf for reading an unfinished version of this fic and encouraging me to finish it. I didn’t edit it and I’m too scared to read it back… so I don’t know how many mistakes are in it 😭😂 ENJOY!!
You groan as your phone wakes you up from the most comfortable sleep you’ve had in weeks, before reluctantly kicking off your covers and stepping out of bed.
The photo of Dieter Bravo's smug face flashing up on your phone screen makes you roll your eyes and curse his name before you swipe to answer. “It’s 5AM Diet, if someone isn’t dead, you’re able to be,” you growl into the phone.
“Shut up,” he says with an obnoxious chuckle, “I’m cashing in on our bet, pretty girl.”
“What?” You say before stuttering, “No. Not today, I’m not playing any of your annoying games this early.. . I’m hanging up and I'm going back to sleep, asshat.” You say, with a wide smile spreading across your face from the sound of his chuckling.
“I can hear you smiling.” He remarks and you roll your eyes again at how easily he can read you.
“What do you want, Dieter? I’m tired.”
“I already told you, I’m cashing in on our bet. March 21st 2015. You said you’d fuck me when I win an Academy Award.” Dieter recalls, his voice dripping with its usual arrogance.
“Buying a fake one from Etsy doesn’t count,” you sigh, imagining he’s just dragged himself back to his hotel from some club, “Dieter, if you haven’t already, go to bed, get so—.”
“I’m nominated,” he interrupts, ignoring the irritation in your voice, “My agent called me fifteen minutes ago. For Hunger Strike - Best Leading Actor.”
“Dieter, you better not be fucking with me.” You squeal with excitement, almost jumping up and down on the spot.
“Not yet, I’m not, pretty girl.”
“When are you home?” You ask, suddenly forgetting how tired you are.
“Eager are we?” He says, his eyebrows raising and the first real smile forming across his face in weeks despite his nomination.
“Shut up, asshat, you’ve got to fucking win the thing first… and if I recall correctly, which I do, I think I said I’d consider fucking you if you ever win one and I only said it so you’d take that damn role.”
“Mhmm. Nope. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the word ‘consider’ fall from those gorgeous lips before now,” he teases. “But jokes aside… Tell me you’ll come with me, I hate those fucking things, they’re only fun if you’re swooning over how handsome I am in a suit sitting next to me.”
“Shut up, asshat.”
“Come with me, pretty girl, put those shiny statues to shame, show them how you shine brighter.” He says, unaware of just how fucking cheesy he ends up sounding.
“Only if you buy me a burger after.” You say, glad he isn’t there to see the way you’re unable to stop yourself from smiling.
“Deal.”
*
You haven’t left his side for the past few days, he had asked you quietly to stay with him while he went through the required amount of press and you had made sure that your hand was close enough for him to squeeze when he needed it.
And today was no different, the confident Dieter Bravo the whole world thinks that they know, nowhere to be seen and instead the sweet Dieter that a few people have the pleasure of knowing sits beside you, looking at the dress bag containing the tuxedo he’ll be adorning in just a few hours time.
“You okay?” You ask, quietly bumping your shoulder against his.
“Ask me again when this is all over,” he says, before taking a generous sip of his drink. “I fucking hate red carpets.”
You take his hand and squeeze it a few times, before resting your head on those broad shoulders that you love so much.
“Whatever happens tonight, I’m really fucking proud of you.” You murmur into his skin, “Always have been, you’re the best friend i’ve ever had.”
He shushes you before pressing a kiss to the top of your head, grateful that you’re with him. “Let’s get this over with, shall we?”
“Let’s do this.” You say, with a little scrunch of your nose.
*
“And the Academy Award goes to… Dieter Bravo.” The gorgeous actress announces and you swear you can hear his heart beating.
He stands slowly, fiddling with the front of his jacket before turning to face you, immediately smashing his lips to yours in a fleeting kiss that steals your breath before shaking the hand of his director and making his way to the stage.
His speech is short but insightful. He makes sure to make eye contact with you as he thanks you for encouraging him to take the role and then shuffles off the stage as quickly as he can.
“Will you be mad if I suggest we skip the after party?” He asks after they finish engraving his oscar, the award ceremony now over and more hands shook than he could possibly be bothered to count.
“Not at all,” you say, resting your head against his shoulder, and inspecting his shiny new award.
“Room service burgers and a shitty movie to fall asleep in front of?” He suggests, before wrapping his hand around your waist.
“Sounds like heaven.”
*
“It’s really fucking pretty,” you say, your hands wrapped around the statue.
“Yeah,” he says, from somewhere behind you. Unable to stop his eyes from scanning up and down your body, and unable to ignore the way his heart leaps everytime he looks at you. “Second prettiest thing in this room.”
“I’d call you a charmer, but I'm pretty certain you’re about to announce that you’re in first place,” you say, turning around to face him with a giggle and a signature scrunch of your nose.
“No. It’s you.” He says, “In every room. It’s you.”
“Charmer.”
You both stand in comfortable silence for a few moments, just staring at each other before you take a step towards him. “Academy award winner, Dieter Bravo.”
“The one and only,” he scoffs, with a roll of his eyes. “You look really fucking beautiful by the way.”
“Shut up, asshat.” You mumble, now standing toe to toe. Unable to stop thinking about the bet that you had made a few years earlier, one that neither of you had mentioned since the day he was nominated.
He’s been your best friend for years. You met on the set of his very first movie, while working as a makeup artist and immediately struck up a friendship. And while there has always been an obvious attraction between you both, the fear that making a move and acting on it could potentially ruin your friendship had kept those feelings at bay.
But standing here and seeing the way that he’s looking at you, you can’t hold back, so you don’t. You surge forward and capture his lips, kissing him with the same intensity he had kissed you with earlier this evening, but this time it didn’t have to be fleeting. His mouth swallows your moans and his hands start to roam your body, squeezing and grabbing anywhere they could as he kisses you back.
He carefully pulls down the zipper on the back of your dress, dragging it slowly and savouring every second of this moment, a moment he’s been dreaming of since first laying eyes on you.
“Dieter,” you murmur softly against his jaw, wanting him to increase his painfully slow pace of undressing you. “Please.”
He increases his pace, frantically pulling on the material and letting it pool at your feet, before helping you step out of it and guiding you backwards towards the bedroom. His hands still greedily grabbing at any and every part of you as he lays you down.
He wastes exactly no time, pulling your panties off in one clear sweep and diving his head in between your legs. The noises he makes are loud and desperate as he laps at your clit with a messy intensity. Alternating between licking and sucking your little bud, only satisfied when you’re screaming his name and tugging at his signature messy locks before soaking his face with your arousal.
You whimper his name as he continues to lap at your clit, before gently pushing him away as it gets too much. Giggling slightly at the sight of his soaked face.
“Are you planning on getting undressed?” You ask as he moves up your body.
“Not this round,” he growls, before capturing your lips again. His movements are sloppy as he fumbles with his belt, pulling it through the loops and throwing it across the room, before pulling his pants down enough to expose his cock. You push him back slightly, and lay down in front of him on your tummy, a moan slipping out as you take a good look at his cock. Thick, long and throbbing. The tip flushed red with a bead of pre-cum, you lean forward, push up the bottom of his shirt and pepper light kisses on the swell of his tummy, nipping a few times before taking him in your mouth.
He groans your name as you hollow your cheeks, your jaw immediately aching from the sheer width of him and slowly you start to bob your head. Gagging slightly as he rocks his hips and pushes past your tonsils. The snap of his hips meet the rhythm of your enthusiastic mouth. After a few minutes he groans impatiently at not being able to touch you, before pulling out your mouth leaning over you and slapping your ass and then spreading your cheeks and tasting you this way.
You take him in your hand, stroking and flicking your wrist in perfect strokes, moaning his name in a perfect little chant as he uses his nose to tease your clit. You cum with a yelp of his name, taking you both by surprise as he soothes you through the aftershocks with gentle coos and little flicks of his tongue against your pretty little clit.
“On your back, pretty girl,” he orders, giving himself a few rough strokes as he watches you. “You ready for me, baby?” He says with a waggle of his eyebrows.
“I'm ready,” you confirm with a giggle, yelping with excitement as he pushes into you. Praising your ‘perfect little pussy’ as he fills you to the hilt. His arms swoop beneath your knees, so he can fuck into your deeper. “Move, D,” you beg as he waits, wanting you to adjust to the size of him.
The second you give him permission, he’s rolling his hips back, watching your face intently before snapping them forward. Loving the sound of your pretty moans as he thrusts back into you. He bends over and presses his lips against your face, thrusting himself in and out of you. Finding that spot and dragging his cock against it with ease, loving how reactive and tight your pussy gets around him.
“Oh Dieter,” you whimper, almost delirious with pleasure.
“I know, fuck, I know, baby girl,” he murmurs, “Taking my fat cock so well, baby.” You love how vocal he is, the sound of both of your moans filling the room. “You know how many times I’ve dreamed of this?” He whispers into your ear. “Every fucking day, since I met you.”
“Me too,” you stutter, seconds before your pussy clamps down around him and everything goes black. White hot pleasure erupting behind your eyes and his name becoming the only word you can speak.
It's a pleasure like you’ve never experienced, you feel him everywhere and you still want more and more. He keeps his pace as steady for as long as he can but his hips begin to falter, his pace more stilted as his cock begins to throb and he pulls out.
Stroking his cock hard and fast as he pants your cunt with thick pearly ropes of his cum.
“Holy shit.” You say with a giggle, “Even better than I imagined, D.”
“Me too,” he says as he collapses on top of you, leaning his weight onto his elbows. Kissing you gently, before nuzzling his face into your neck.
“So how was your night?” You ask with a giggle. “End as good as it started.”
“A million times better.” He says quietly.
You giggle loudly, “Better than winning the most coveted award in acting?”
“Not even a competition. You would win every time.”

surprise visit ☆ | shuri x fem!actress!reader
shuri decides to pay you a surprise visit on the set of your movie. it’s safe to say she doesn’t like seeing you kiss other people.
warnings : costar being a little pushy
word count : 1k+
note : this is a special one shot featuring actress!reader and shuri since they’re what helped me get to 100 followers !! i’m still so happy that people like my stuff enough to follow me lol but i hope y’all enjoy
you and shuri had been apart for a few weeks after shooting began again. the kimoyo bead calls resumed again, but you attempted to put more effort into them. you missed shuri more than ever after being forced to spend time with costars you weren’t too fond of. the main costar was constantly flirting with you despite telling him you were not interested in the slightest. the other costars had been fine you guessed, but hollywood makes it hard to form genuine connections with those around you. they never actually cared to ask about what kind of person you were. they would only ever ask what it’s like to be dating royalty and how often she spoils you. eventually the awkward laughter and begging of moving onto the next conversation topic failed to work.
shuri would listen in on your day through true calls as she worked on her various projects or walked around the palace. she was interested in helping you run lines and discuss what could be better about your delivery. shuri was by far your biggest fan and you adored that about her. she supported you through everything.
as filming kept going, shuri grew curious of what it could be like to be on set of a major hollywood movie. she was always fascinated with american pop culture like coachella and just how fame as a whole worked over there. so, she took it upon herself to plan a surprise visit to cheer you up a little. the only problem was that she couldn’t have come at a worse time.
“action!” the director yelled as you heard the snap of a clapperboard.
the rain began pouring down from the sprinklers placed above you and your costar. your latex white suit was beginning to grow more and more uncomfortable with every new take you were forced to participate in. your performance was incredible of course, but your costar kept requesting to retake the scene until the kiss was perfect.
yeah. a kiss.
he made his way towards you as you stood on the dirt. you could feel the mud forming under your feet as you stood in the same spot you had been in for the past five takes.
shuri had sneaked her way onto the set without your knowledge as you performed your take. she was sat next to the director, who eagerly shook hands with her and demanded an intern pull up a chair for her. you were far too into the take to notice her sitting right to the side of you though. your eyes were solely on your costar.
“landen?” you spoke out with a shaky voice as if you couldn’t believe he was really in front of you. you made your lip tremble and your eyebrows raise at the sight of him. the camera panned around to your costar to get the look on his face: he had been smiling while happy tears of his own were mixing in with the rain. despite your costar’s unprofessional crush on you, he was a great actor.
“tati…” he croaks out as you stand there staring at each other for a while.
your legs pick up as his do, now running towards one another. the dirt kicked up against your white suit as your feet made contact with the ground.
you feel yourself being embraced in a not so warm hug, due to the rain temperature, by your costar. it was hard to act like you were deeply in love with him considering how awkward he made things constantly.
shuri can feel herself cringing in her seat. she was not enjoying the way his hands were sliding down your uniform. wasn’t this supposed to be romantic? it was more sleezy than anything and she knew you hated it.
you didn’t mind it though. it was annoying, sure, but it was written in the script so you just had to do your job. after all, it wasn’t like you felt really any emotions about the task. the sooner you got it done the quicker you could rest in your hotel room.
you pull away from him and hold his face. his hands remain on your waist and you still aren’t necessarily used to the contact despite all the takes. all you could think about was your girlfriend as he leaned in close.
then closer.
and closer.
your lips collided with his but it wasn’t like you enjoyed a single second of it. kissing costars was simply just a job that you hated most about acting. especially when you have a loving girlfriend at home.
shuri could feel her teeth gritting as she watched him kiss you so passionately. she had never been able to actually watch your on screen kisses because it made her incredibly jealous. however, now she had to watch you kiss him. knowing it took so many takes, and may require more, she couldn’t handle it. she wanted to punch the guy’s lights out.
“cut!” the director beside shuri yelled loudly to the production and cast. she watched as you escaped your costar’s grasp and went over to the coffee table. he had been trailing after you.
“you did great like always!” your costar spoke to you. he was fairly well known and handsome if you were into guys. he wasn’t much older than you and really seemed decent outside of the fact he wouldn’t drop his crush on you. sometimes you just wish people could catch a hint instantly.
you simply nodded to him and smiled as you began pouring your coffee. if you were being honest, small talk wasn’t really for you. especially when you were tired and drained of all feeling.
“i think we could do another take though.”
this was when you became annoyed.
“we’ve already done enough. even the director said so last take. just choose your best out of the ones already shot so we can move on.”
if you were being honest you knew your heart wasn’t into the take because there just wasn’t a feeling of mutual respect between you two. how could you fake an expression so many times that you could never even feel towards that person. at first it was easy but then annoyance set in after the third take and you put yourself on autopilot.
“oh c’mon y/n. i want this movie to be perfect and the chemistry really has to be there. what’s one more kiss?” he said as he leaned on the table and snatching up your coffee. some of it had spilled on your hand in the process causing you to wince.
“i think she said just choose a different take, stupid american.” a familiar voice said from behind you. you quickly turn your head, forgetting the burning sensation on your hand. you were far too happy to worry about the coffee now.
“shuri!” you ran into her arms and she smiled as you hugged her tight. “i’ve missed you. this is such a surprise!”
you couldn’t see it but shuri was giving your costar a look capable of taking down an entire army. he got the hint after she began flaring and quickly set down your fresh coffee before going on his way.
“what are you doing here?” you cant help but ask as you grab some napkins off the table.
“i thought i’d visit you for once. plus i’ve never been on a movie set before.” she says while a laugh escapes her ever so perfect lips. you smiled at her laughter as you admired how dashing she looked. she was wearing a tracksuit, which she had begun growing a collection of. her glasses rested stop her curls which you knew was definitely going to make an indent later.
“well i’m glad to see you. i should have some time in between the next take.” you grab onto her hand and begin dragging her off to your trailer.
“good. i can show you what real kissing is like.” she whispered ever so seductively in your ear as she caught up to your pace. you felt your face burn from the words she spoke. her accent truly did just make everything sexier.
you decided you wanted shuri to visit you on set far more often.

Little things I've noticed on my rewatch of 1x01
So, it's been a while since I've actually watched the show and I've started to miss Crowley and Aziraphale something fierce. So I've finally started at the beginning and here are some small things that stood out or that I didn't notice to that extend before. Nothing revolutionary, but maybe you'll enjoy / be devastated by it anyway.
Eden: Crawley saw Aziraphale before their talk on the wall since he mentions seeing him with a sword. They kept hanging around the garden for a while, but haven't talked that much since Az asks Crawley's name?
After receiving the Antichrist: Crowley is devastated. The way he days "Already?!" gets me every time. Is barely able to keep it together infront of Hastur and Ligur (terrific acting by David here). Immediately tries to call Aziraphale.
Park, going up the stairs: "It's not some little temptation I've asked you to cover for me while you're in Edinburgh for the festival". Their arrangement is so casually lived in by then. And the way Aziraphale lights up when he's invited to lunch.
Also, Crowley's hair is stunning in the sun here.
After lunch: Az gets totally distracted by Crowley's company, forgets all about Armageddon or their disagreement over it. Wants to open a bottle for a "special occasion", tone indicating inside joke / hidden meaning. There's a theory about that being sexual, but while I support that headcanon I think it's more of a joke along the lines that it isn't actually a special occasion, because they drink together all the time.
Infront of the bookshop: "this is purely social" Sure Az, as if that makes it any better in heaven's judgement. Now you're just being silly! (see what I did there?)
Making the pact: How cute is Crowley here?!? I already knew that and think about it constantly, but seeing it again is something else still. I mean, seriously:
Babysitting Warlock: How somehow Nanny Ashtorath is able to sing so much better than I've ever heard David Tennant do (no offense) is a proper mystery to me.
Meeting on the bus: Why don't they talk on their job as nanny and gardener lol?They must have endless opportunities and still they hang out even more. Ok, probably more like a plot hole for coolness than being meant romantically on purpose here, but still.
Bus and dinosaur park: Crowley can't bring himself to tell Az the whole ugly truth about the antichrists power / the dog not to frighten him too much. This is really sweet and very telling about how he sees him as kind of naive and innocent. Also, he's protective snek. Another amazing thing here is how he doesn't even consider killing the Antichrist himself although he is been working against hell all along anyway. Ties nicely to the bandstand scene later.
In the shop: "Crowley: Would I lie to you? - Aziraphale: Obviously, you're a demon, that's what you do". While his is pretty hurtful towards Crowley and typically blindsided of Aziraphale, it's also so devastatingly accepting of him as well.
In the shop at the end ("he's named the dog"): Crowley is really, really afraid and that respectively makes Az nervous (the looming doom in his delivery of "welcome to the end times").
That was all for this round... In general it blew my mind how much of their story is already in episode one!
And I'll never get tired of mentioning how David and Micheal disappear completely into their characters. I try to admire their work in the moment, but I keep forgetting it's them. Only because I have seen so much of them by now can I spot them as the actors in tiny moments that last mere half-seconds. That's always a weird triumph. "ha! I've seen a glimpse of Micheal's smile there!" or "the way Crowley says 'helly hellhound' sounded very David" and that's basically it.

Incidentally, the photo I shared the other day, it is a Live Photo, so I share again so you can see me being blinky, Shirley saying “Okay” & Sam being noddy! 😂
I adored this play so much! I haven’t been to London now since February 2020 & I miss the days I sat in the theatre(s) for (many other plays &) this play as I saw it at both the Old Vic & the Noel Coward Theatre for hours, alone, immersed in the glorious world of this play!
Teehee. It’s so weird to me that Sam was literally a few metres away from me, but I was too scared to ask everyone for photos! Or anyone, beyond Shirley! I wish I had been braver now! But then again, I’m glad I didn’t annoy Sam & I guess I have a memento photo anyway! Here it is! It’s not only a photo even, LOL! It’s a video, essentially 😂.
The play was so exquisite though! I don’t think I could have coped to also know Sam would one day be Lestat on top of the exquisite glory that the play was. If you ever get the chance to see Shirley Henderson on stage, run as fast as you can at that! Sam wasn’t bad either! 😉😁😇 The while cast were glorious! But Shirley was transcendent! Just mesmerising, she was. And the emotion as she sang. I wish I could describe the emotional power. I’m crying now, because I can bring it back into my heart still now - how it felt. I mean, you can listen to the cast recording, but obviously it had more power in the context of the play. Why do time machines not exist? Anyway! Lucky me to have experienced it.
I’m actually very glad that at least I steeled myself enough to do this! I don’t know exactly how many times I saw the play (but I did see it enough that once at the Old Vic when I got a ticket on the day, the box office staff gave me the seat in the centre circle they usually save in case the Director wants to watch any performance, so the staff clearly knew I was there *again*!!! 😇 To give me the special seat… I think I only saw it twice at the Noel Coward Theatre though as it was more expensive then, but this particular photo was after the very final performance, which I was lucky to be at. They were dismantling the set & taking it out if the back of the theatre too.)
I did a tour of the Old Vic while it was on there too & so stood on the stage. In my humble opinion, The Old Vic is the most beautiful theatre in London & standing on the (massive!) stage, looking out at the auditorium it makes you desire to be there, performing. I felt similarly to how Lestat must have as a young boy, that world & its feeling so clear!
I’m not a big fan of musicals (though I love some, if I feel them!) but plays with music in are my absolute favourite. Because I love & feel music deeply & when you can be moved by music AND be moved by the incredible skill of actors (How do people act!? It’s a mystery to me! I find it awkward enough being even myself & like I don’t know how to be a real person!!) & it all combines, especially in such an aching, yearning play about the sorrowful tragedy of being alive & our sad, doomed lives. Oh, it’s so resonant and perfect!
I miss live theatre very much indeed!
Buuutttt…. TV vampires certainly are a fair substitute! They’ll do me, for now!!
Anyway, I thought I’d share this silly wee video!! 😂😅😇

Film screening went really well. B was sitting next to me laughing at every joke, which was nice cos her pen game goes craaaazy and I pray I can work to that level and standard, like she’s been in the game for 30, can choose her projects, is supported but most importantly is a solid soul. Here’s to solid souls in a dunya filled with sold souls and flip flopping, dishonourable weaklings lol. The q&a was wicked, I was nervous as fck, took the mic and all of a sudden another part of me emerged. The part that is always shining, beaming eloquence and confidently in command. Talked about the film with people in the foyer which was lovely and then went for a walk to clear my head and walk off my film crazy wide eyed energy. I was soooo high off this movie ish and yet before the screening, no, that’s a lie lol, all weekend I felt my imposter syndrome lingering on the edge of the frame. I questioned everything, people treating me so so well (I’ve never been asked so many times if I’m ok or need anything) and people looking after me with such care and consideration, preempting my ish. (It almost felt excessive in such oppressive times) Met C who is an amazing writer who wrote a killer movie (the kind of award winner I’d usually avoid tbh I only came across it for research but it turned out to be dope and not so traditional either) it was so good and revealed a reality so instantly recognisable to me that I called my mum to see it, cos the main character was sick the same as my pops was. I swear the film was literally about my pops, except, played by one of the best and most charismatic actors to ever do it. C was kind and encouraging, somewhat flustered by the print of his movie not being in great quality. B told me about her new forthcoming film, she worked with one of my favourite actresses at the moment. I’m hyped for them, even though I know she’s low cos the funders were lukewarm about the ting. Fck em, it’ll find its people. We all find our people and places, sometimes in the most strangest of times and spaces and not at all how we’d initially envisioned. It’s mad when community doesn’t quite look like how you imagined it but nourishes you all the same. Met some solid souls this weekend. Mostly the sea the sun and meeting myself again tbh. Lol randoms: I wonder what the sea’s soul looks like? Woke up and the stained glass window pane in my hotel room was glowing. You have to be twice as good for half as much as a non white in this place but what if you’re twice as tired and twice as much fed da fck up? Showers are wicked but baths are the ish, music on, drink by ya side. Sheeesh. Top tier tings. A good walk does wonders. When was the last time you saw the sea or jumped in the sea? There were some rocks/stones on that beach that looked and felt incredible. I miss watching movies with my childhood homie Alex we’d just sit and laugh at everything. I wanna go watch some movies in Peckham, the best audience ever. Partynextdoor came on when the train stopped by a farm and I couldn’t stop laughing. I observed so many animals horny af, kept cracking up and asking myself am I the only one seeing this ish and that boi stroking like a mofo lol. Some people are so freaking generous. But so many are on some crabs in the barrel ish it’s sad af. What you give you really do get back. Tenfold. And isn’t it a blessing to be able to give whatever you can if you can? Outside the city centre people are nicer. Was pissed cos I’m not a selfie person and I wanted to take a photo of my fit (not the one pictured lol) and I didn’t have time but pls believe me the levels were levelling my g. A trendy 30 something black woman in yellow walked past, came back and then dropped the: I like your style line and dipped. I was so gassed cos the fit did indeed go braazy lol and I wanted evidence. Frieren and Jujutsu Kaisen are sooooo freakin good and I don’t know anyone who watches em in real life which sucks cos I wanna talk about them sooo freakin bad. Let’s smile again soon. Let’s laugh again soon. DJ Screw Sade is a whole nother gravity, floaty and heavy

WTF is wrong with Hamish Linklater
Ok, so when I discover a new actor or actress that captivates me, I binge watch a bunch of things they've been in. Lately, it's been Hamish Linklater.
Although this 6'4" tall dude looks pretty sweet and innocent, do not let that fool you. Oh no, that was a HUGE mistake on my part ! Saw him in Midnight Mass 1st, and though he does do some pretty fucked up shit, he seems pretty oblivious to what he's actually doing to his community and what is actually happening around them all. So, in my opinion, that innocent looking face of his fits pretty well with the character, even adding a pinch of creepiness to Father Paul's persona. He thinks he's doing the right thing and is so passionate about it, but yet, too much of a blind fanatic to even notice the harm he's doing to others.
I mean come on ! Does he look like the type of dude that would even hurt a fly ? XD He's only trying to do good in his community, that's all ! x)
He welcomes them with open arms and says good morning, ...
he's a good listener,…
he preaches about love and loves to sing,...
he ask's if they need help and tells them when he's proud of them,...
he promises shit he can't but apologizes,...
he's up and about and wants to be left alone,...
he lies and apologizes again,...
and they all live happily ever after-ish. XD (Yeah, i had to put a crap tons of Gifs XD) You know, normal creepy pastor type of shit ! XD Doesn't change that he's trying to be a good man even if I found him to be a bit dumb on that part, but still. But not before being an absolute creep of a man. XD
Da fuck are you trying to do there buddy ?! :D Wtf is wrong with your dumbass ?! :D You disturbing fuck ! XD
All jokes aside, I absolutely loved him in Midnight Mass and I'll have to watch it again, because, that shit was amazing.
Though he was perfect for Father Paul's character, his innocent face does a better job in an innocent role like Andrew Keanelly in the mini series The Crazy Ones, playing along side this legend of a man, Robin Williams (miss that man honestly <3). Better job as in his innocence fits much more for this nerdy dude. Don't get me wrong, it added the perfect amount of creepiness to Midnight Mass.
Look how charming he is lol. I liked him in this role, since it's suits him so well. The perfect innocent nerd.
I mean come on, look how adorable he is lol. Who doesn't love a handsome nerd !
Another role that fitted him well was the one and only Jeb Magruder from the mini series Gaslit. His innocence, mixed with this long legged idiot is perfect lol.
Though is blue contact lenses did kinda give me the creeps. XD But hey, he does the role perfectly and I thought he was hilarious. I still can't get over his face when he tells those FBI agents that he's gonna "fuck them". XD Just look at this nervous fuck ! XD
But then, upon his numerous perfect performances, I stumbled onto this mini series called Tell Me Your Secrets. And holy mother of God was he ever so excellent there.
Look at this fucking creep spying on you through your window. And yeah, I hear you say "But Chloe, look how adorable he looks!" Yeah, no ! This twisted little fucker may look handsome when he's not a fucking psychopath, but this, this is a whole new level of fucked up. I just feel like punching him in the goddamn throat ffs ! XD
"But Chloe, he's so sexy !" Nay nay I say ! XD What the fuck kind crack are you on ? XD (Yeah, sorry, I'm getting a bit overwhelmed over here XD) Regardless of the fact that some women fantasize about this, Idk why, you do you, he creeps me the fuck out.
That fucker looks like an absolute psycho with that twisted smile and still, his damn so innocent looking face ! I literally can't get over this shit honestly. XD It just works so well with the character. A bit too well if you ask me !
Da fuck are you doing there man ?!? Why must you destroy your friendly innocent self like this ? Why you do this to me Hamish ?! XD Plus, that fucking spit scene made me fucking gag. XD I hate spit on a whole new level, or any bodily fluids for that matter, that it made me vomit a bit in my mouth. Yeah, that sounds lovely doesn't it ! :D XD
Anyways, I'm getting a bit carried away now lol. But needless to say that I've watched TMYS twice so far and will probably watch it again, because I thought this was his best role yet. Despite the fact that this fucker creeps me the fuck out, like dude gave me nightmares ffs. XD I just think he does it so well and that, again, repeating myself, his innocence and his friendly looking face adds a lot more creepiness to the character and that's just fucking amazing if you ask me. I think any role he does is perfectly made to be fair. In Dead For A Dollard for instance, with that sick look mustache lol. He wasn't there a lot, but he was awesome.
I rarely get obsessed like this over actor's performance. Yeah, I have actors that I love and admire and love what they bring to their characters. But nothing like what Mr. Linklater over here. The fact that he makes every role he does fit so well with him is just, wow ! He brings a whole new level of fucked up to fucked up in TMYS.
Look at this SOB. XD He's fucking creeping me out for the love of God ! XD Honestly scares the shit out of me. ! I think if I'd meet him irl, I'd freaking shit myself ! XD I've never been so creeped out by an actor like this before ! XD
Anyways, hope y'all enjoyed my massive review/rant on Hamish Linklater. Love the dude, he's amazing. Scares me, but still amazing lol.

star trek update time. last night* we watched tng's "attached" and ds9's "necessary evil." *i am typing this at fuck o clock it will go up when im at work
attached (tng):
ok, the premise of this is basically every spirk fic ever, right...? "ooh, we accidentally have a telepathic connection and our feelings are revealed"
to get this out of the way, i like how much worf e riker e deanna was in the b-plot of this, even just circumstantially (i missed data though). i also think riker finally getting fed up with the aliens and giving them shit was really funny. riker is never mean to ANYBODY. i'm also glad he was relatively chill about picard being missing for once lol. like, in NO way were these assholes ready to enter the federation. not to agree with picard, but PART of a world can't enter. if you haven't mastered world peace you can't sit with us etc etc. not that i'm fully buying the propaganda of the federation as the ultimate good or that earth does somehow have world peace but whatever. even i know these guys weren't ready. what a fucking joke
frankly stunned this didn't lead to discussion about the affair baby wesley crusher. yes i know picard said he would never act on it. i don't care about that. i KNOW these people have had an affair baby. they're the type. he would knock her up and leave her high and dry. it's the kind of man he is. don't tell me there's no affair baby. i know what i know. there IS an affair baby!! i will die on this hill
actually, even though i dislike picard, i think sir patrick stewart is a v talented actor and i DO like him. i also really like beverly, so they managed to be charming a couple of times in this episode, mostly when they had a thought we couldn't hear and then started snickering about it
that said, i have no respect at all for jean-luc. the campfire conversation sucked. beverly was DEEPLY flattered and also in a little bit of a vulnerable position and he WAS LYING when he said he didn't feel that way anymore bc he tried to hit her up at the end of the episode. a man would have HELD HER, jean-luc. i would have held her. beverly crusher i would treat you so much better
this is insane bc i don't even have a crush on beverly. like genuinely. i only talk like this about sophie devereaux and brit marling characters. i just think it's outrageous her man doesn't treat her better. i almost had a fit when it came out he didn't like the breakfasts until beverly responded in kind also lol her saying croissant w the french accent
them getting sick when they split up was really funny. jean-luc, time to ruthlessly experience morning sickness. this is how it was after you left her high and dry post affair baby conception
the bait and switch at the end fucking killed me i love beverly making him ask and then turning him down GOOD FOR HER but i have no idea what motivated the entire thing. like, was the goal to get them together before the series ended? ok, why keep them apart? why show her pushing him through to safety at the expense of her own if she was gonna turn him down? why was she giving dtf vibes there at the end? like i was YELLING at him to go to her and then he did and she was like "actually nah." which was FUNNY and again good for her but what the fuck? i thought she wanted him. i just want her to be happy.
necessary evil (ds9):
OHHHHHHH MYYYYYY GODDDDDDD
i knew going in that this was an odo episode but AN ODO AND KIRA EPISODE??? swoon. oh my god she was the first person to give him his little constable nickname. HURL. KILL MEEEEE
actually, odo/kira and odo/quark people were BOTH getting fed during this ep. odo like yeah idc about quark but im gonna solve this murder case w extreme prejudice. i like both so i had a great time
every single mention of odo's dehumanization in the past makes me HOMICIDAL please treat him really niceys. i would kind of like to know what the cardassian neck trick is though. just not from odo
"i dont drink" fuckin hilarious. i think odo should shapeshift himself a digestive system so he can try food. um one that can digest stuff in 16 hours i guess or it would all just fall out when he gooped again. we tossed around the idea of chewing gum, since you just spit that back out eventually. but does he even have tastebuds, or just the approximation of them? his other senses seem to work ok........
the window in this acted SO sketchy like she was fake crying at her third dead husbands funeral after she just inherited a zillion dollars but she literally was innocent. she pointed at kira and was like girl she did it and we're like NO kira's innocent! and then kira is literally not innocent but shady sketchy widow is. incredible
kira with long hair my beloved. i would hate it if she had long hair in present day but it's perfect for past kira
ds9 looks SO BAD in the past. to have children running around and playing in it now is insane. you can really feel the difference between the cardassian occupation and Now so well in this episode, it's as striking to us as it would be to kira and odo
ohhh my god kira and odo. "will you ever trust me again" he's not even mad she killed that guy just mad that she lied about it. AUGHGHGHG
but when kira did something shady it was for a good cause. when odo was being shady he was indirectly working for the fucking cardassians. "choose a side" so true but he eventually chose kira's <3
i love deeply that he didn't try to fuck her. like it genuinely didn't even occur to him. ace king.
40s mystery style of this was so fun. odo narration is so funny bc like he doesnt wanna do it and his log is just one sentence bc he thinks its fucking stupid and then by the end of the ep hes like man am i supposed to be usign this thing as a diary?? girl dont worry about it james t kirk did the same fucking thing
final note: rom in this episode was amazing. i've never really given him more than a passing thought before this but him secretly being a fucking amazing thief was truly fantastic. sisko and odo good cop bad copping him was really funny too especially when you remember his son and sisko's son are besties. i would still rank the ferengi as my least favorite ds9 characters but i was pleasantly surprised with how often i laughed
TONIGHT: tng's "forces of nature" which sounds like. its gonna make me mad lol

A favourite scene! One of many of course...
LB: We meet again, Young Lady Cheng.
CSS: General Ling, how is your injury? Do you have military matters to attend to today?
LB: It was just a minor wound. I had recovered long ago, and I didn’t do any strenuous activities lately.
I think this scene is mostly overlooked in favour of sweeping romantic ones, but let me convince you...
Ling Buyi gravitates towards where Shaoshang is, it’s probably an impulse, he can’t help it! He is always stone faced even as he gets closer, of course can’t show emotions... must... keep... up... appearances!!! But... he breaks* ever so slightly as soon as Shaoshang asks about his injury**. His eyes lights up, his voice softens, there is a certain happiness when he speaks, and what is that, is that a smile? He smiles while talking when he answers her. A small smile but a smile... from LING BUYI?!!!... in public!!!... for all to see!!! It’s unheard of, perhaps impossible even!... I sooo love that part! ........... And then he goes back to being his stoic self, he has a reputation to maintain!
And while he is there, it might have been very strategic... why pass up the opportunity to tell the parents, hopefully parents in-law soon... that... “Hey, there’s no need to be so courteous, your daughter and I have been in life and death situations! And by the way, she undressed me and treated my wounds, so no need to be so polite!”... And also, this is my not so subtle way of telling you, I’m an interested party, would love to be “considered” for the son-in-law position, oh feck it, I want to be the son-in law! Besides, the betrothal is not official yet. I might be able to turn the tide. You see, I’m one of the most eligible bachelor in the known world! (hahahha).... Oh, Shaoshang’s tired, let me just scare the living day lights of all the people that are queuing and let them scram! I can totally just tell the soldiers guarding the city gate to let you through but why do that when I can have my soldiers line up like honour guards and I will escort you in with much fanfare, and with beautiful background music of course! LOL
* I don’t know if this is the interpretation from the actor, or the director, or both, or the production team thing. It’s mostly micro expressions and can easily be missed. Whoever it is, I appreciate the detail and the subtlety.
** Watch episode 44 to understand why he is happy being asked about his injury.
Bonus, we can also admire Wu Lei’s proficiency on horseback.
#星汉灿烂#月升沧海#Love Like the Galaxy#LLTG#Wu Lei#Leo Wu#General Ling#Ling Buyi#Zisheng#Shiyilang#Zhao Lusi#Cheng Shaoshang#Niao Niao#Ep 16#cdrama#cdramaedit#Escorting Shaoshnag through the city gates#General and Madam Cheng finding out juicy stuff#LOL!

what are your favourite horror movies
what a question to ask me lol. ohhhkay, strap in.
(please note that when you ask me "favourite", that means you get favourite regardless of quality. and you get no tv shows or any such things, strictly movies)
(btw i haven't actually seen that many horror films. many of the iconic franchises especially - chucky, elm street, scream, friday the 13th, texas chainsaw massacre, what have you - just never piqued my interest. maybe some day)
(also these are in no particular order)
-
1. hellraiser franchise
my working theory is that all "hellraiser" movies are bad movies, but for different reasons. the og from 1987 is a bad movie because it was made on a budget of ten pounds and a packet of crisps. hellraiser 8 is bad because its plot is about a group of teens obsessed with a hellraiser video game getting murdered at a weird sex party. these two are not the same
that being said, i love these movies very much (except for hellraiser 10. i hate hellraiser 10 and will never ever watch it ever again, thank you. no reason) and love to look at pinhead and his many cenobite buddies doing weird kinky shit <3
2. halloween movies (only 1978 and the green trilogy from 2018 onwards)
i haven't seen any of the other ones because i was introduced to the series by my very good friend miri aka @asylos, who showed me those four and no others. and i was like okay :D and just never watched the rest because i don't consume media unless prompted
i'm a basic bitch, i see a man in a jumpsuit and get gender envy, so og twink michael delights me. that being said, old man michael from the green trilogy? CHEF'S KISS. love that fucker. he's the best
3. anything del toro
a lot of his films don't really stay within the constraints of a single genre, but they definitely contain horror elements. my favourite is "the shape of water", which has its moments but is overall not that scary. the pale man from "pan's labyrinth" made quite the impression on me when i first saw the movie because while i had seen the iconic shot of him raising his hands to reveal the Palm Eyes before, i was unaware of the fact that that fucker gets up and shambles around and i was Not Okay with that
crimson peak is very pretty and i love it. for obvious reasons, i think
4. willy's wonderland
nic cage night janitor animatronic murder fight bonanza my beloved. like honestly, i watched the fnaf movie yesterday and it had zero good cleaning montages, wasn't as funny and had fewer bangers, music-wise, than willy's does. like what's the fuckin point
5. fright night 2011
this film has david tennant in it and that's why i watched it. apart from him being an absolutely show-stealing delight, the rest of the film is also a fun romp. there's vampires and stuff
6. bad samaritan
this film ALSO has david tennant in it. he's doing an american accent (a way better one than in "gracepoint", a show that you should Not watch. just watch "broadchurch" instead please, i promise you're not missing anything) and is playing a rich asshole obsessed with horses who abducts and kills women. also he throws a phone out of a car window at two separate occasions and it cracks me up
the main character is played by some actor whose name i can never remember. he's irish or something and i think he might have been in one of those pieces of media i haven't consumed. umbrella academy? was he klaus in umbrella academy? who's klaus?? is klaus FROM umbrella academy? who knows
anyway, the film is a thriller and i quite like watching it. it's tense with zero unnecessary padding, it knows what it's here for and delivers
7. the thing 1982 + 2011
another one i watched with miri. miri likes to show me horror films (and tv shows) a lot <3 we watched both the og and the new one and i quite liked them! the dog in the 82 one is really really good at his job. i highkey struggle with big groups of characters bc i can't remember names and faces for shit, so i was reeeally bad at spotting the Thing. also i liked the teeth thing from the 2011 one that was smart
8. bunny lake is missing
does this count as a horror movie? idk, but i'm putting it here
9. psycho
it's pretty good. i liked it. i think norman would have been a tumblr sexyman if such a thing had existed in the 1960s
10. the one hour long space horror segment trapped in the middle of otherwise meandering artfilm "2001: a space odyssey"
you know the one
11. alien
classic. i haven't seen any of the others apart from "aliens" because the internet said they were bad
12. the abyss
veers closer to sci-fi than horror, but i'm counting it bc it sure is tense. this is a film by james cameron about *checks smudged handwriting* some underwater diving alien nonsense or something. idk, it's been a while since i've watched it. another movie with a big group of characters i can't tell apart for shit, which is why i'm always rooting for some of them to start dying already
i watched this one because i unfortunately am doing a handshake meme with jimmy cameron labelled "hello i am obsessed with the ocean" and unlike me, he has the money to make really long epic films about it
13. the haunting 1963
this is a movie adaptation of "the haunting of hill house" by shirley jackson. it's very good! (if you're familiar with flanagan's netflix show, there are some parts of this movie that will be... quite familiar)
i watched this one with miri, followed immediately by the 1999 remake (?), which i found very strange and occasionally hilarious because of cgi that hasn't stood the test of time. also, i'd like it to be put on record that i fuckin CALLED the thing about the fireplace (somehow lol)
14. rocky horror picture show
my parents showed me this movie when i was maybe a bit too young to see it, at a point in my life where i hadn't quite figured out yet that i was various shades of queer. it sure made an Impression
many years later, i finally got around to watching the sequel, "shock treatment" (thanks to miri, of course) which is very different but also a good time, and has some bangers of its own!
-
those are all the ones i can think of (and look up in the big movie watchlist google doc miri and i use to keep track of what we've seen so far) without digging through my dvd collection, which i don't feel like doing right now because it'd be a bother.
but just for fun, a few brief honourable mentions:
the shining (i care about shelley duvall and nothing else. so glad she got to punt jack nicholson's character down a flight of stairs with a baseball bat)
black christmas (keir dullea what IS your haircut shgsjfghs)
cabin in the woods (i knew nothing going in and miri was very pleased by this fact)
house on haunted hill 1959 (skeleton lol)
young frankenstein (my parents showed me the german dub version when i was, again, a bit too young for it. iconic movie tbh)

headbutts you like a cat. hi. i am here. in your askbox. to ask you a question about that actor fella you like!! mr. pascal!! if you HAD to pick--which of his characters do you think was his best performance?
HASHY MY HASHY HI HONEY!! 🥹 omg I’m meowing back so loud at you and can’t thank you enough for wanting to drop by for a sweet chat 😫😭💕
I hope this May has already been so kind to you!! 🌼
And omg who’s that pascal guy idk who you’re talking about?? LOL 🤡
But honestly - in my opinion Mr Pascal’s best performance ever is Javier Peña from the Netflix series Narcos 📺
(Here he is 🥹)
The series is dark and a heavy watch yet that Mr Pascal fella manages to convey so much emotion and depth into Javier, we see him laugh and care deeply about others but he’s also somber and so serious, troubled and incredibly devastated at times and it’s all so GOOD TO WATCH!!
When you hear Pedro speak Spanish in interviews sometimes you can catch his beautiful Chilean accent - so when he speaks Spanish for Javi it sounds very South Texan/Mexico based and reflects Javier’s character being from there and it’s SUCH a good piece of his performance!
Like you can tell Pedro really just enjoyed being in this role and brought life to Javi (he even picked the outfits and designs Javi wore!)
So there’s a beautiful connection you get to see between actor and role here!! Also it’s so sweet that in interviews whenever Pedro gets asked about old roles, he always brings up Javier Peña and how much he MISSES HIM AND THAT ROLE!!!
PEDRO BABE ME TOO 😭😫
(that lovely gif set is found here 💕)
And I think you really can see and feel the love and impact of that connection in his performance!!!
But OMFG?!?! I rambled so much IM SO SORRY SHDJKEBXJ 🫠😭
But HASH my lovely Hashy thank you again darling 🥹
Okay but tell me… do you have any celebrity crushes you wanna giggle about me with? 👀
Also I’m wishing you a wonderful and kind rest of your day! 🦋
#HASHY ily bb 😭💜✨#im so fucking sorry I practically made a PowerPoint presentation BEHXGSYSJAOA pls ignore me#Hash’s tag 🏝️✨#asks and such things 💌

RWBY V8E11 - Risk
My main question going into this episode is... why did Ironwood's Ultimatum ask the same thing of Penny as the hack (assuming the Vault is in Atlas Academy)? I mean, in-universe it makes sense, he doesn't know what's going on. But we know. I'm not sure what's the narrative purpose of duplicating Penny's orders. Is it to have both Penny and her hacked self agree in what they need to do? To make her "lose" to the virus only because she agrees, without compromising the possibility of her coming back? Hm.
Anyway, I have no idea what the episode's title could be about so let's do this!
I think not even Palpatine in Star Wars went this hard with the dramatic lighting after his mask came off.
I hadn't considered that the bomb would be the thing to push people to reconsider working under Ironwood but, well, of course. On the other hand these guys saw Ironwood murder a councilman in cold blood without it ever coming up again, so I feel I have a pretty good reason for not thinking "this, this is the thing that breaks their loyalty"
All the light is gone from Ironwood's eyes, I guess the bomb threat finally killed whatever was left of him.
I love how the Ace Ops went from being awesome during their introduction to the slow reveal of how much they actually suck.
Winter just saved Marrow's life and there's no way she didn't know what she's doing.
I'm laughing IRL at their expressions and the situation.
Oscar is reaaally sounding like Ozpin right now
And Ruby finally, finally, got to her breaking point.
There's never going to be enough time for the show to get really into whatever is going on with Nora and Ren but I love the potential.
This is the payoff I've been waiting for almost two volumes and I'm loving it. Give me all the drama.
Nora's VA is killing it. I think I've never heard that particular tone coming from Nora before.
Wait.
What?
Of all the things I expected this is not one of them.
I wish they showed what Ren is seeing with his semblance. But I guess he could always be not using it right now.
Oh no, Jaune made me laugh. I'm getting soft in my old age.
I can't tell if that was a good apology or not. He assumed responsibility for what he said, explained the reason and made it clear that he knows what he is apologizing for.
I wonder if Nora thinks Ren regrets the kiss, since he mentioned Robyn's rally and she very clearly reacted to it.
That tiny flinch from Nora is absolutely wonderful.
The one thing that is distracting me here is Ren's VA. But maybe it's the way Ren in general gets directed which usually works for his character but feels a teensy bit stilted here, in a "ah, an actor is reading these lines" versus "Ren is saying this" way.
Still loving this scene.
Nora backstory!
now I wonder if he can turn off his semblance
If I hadn't been pausing I'd be crying right now, but this definitely got me teary-eyed.
All aboard the murder ironwood train
The most subtle of weapons, a giant Final Fantasy sword.
With that camera angle, he's already gone.
Welp, never mind
On one hand this is a natural continuation of Qrow's character development. A small return into his bad habits before continuing to get better.
On the other hand, I'm just not invested in his storyline. It lost me when Clover got killed and now I just want the writers to speedrun this bit so Qrow can either return to the main group or go do something else away from the show.
Who could it be to cause that reaction? Maybe Winter and Marrow?
lol at Ruby's angst pose.
Oh. We're going right into this.
I 100% thought they had missed the silver eyes or maybe save it for the last episode or something.
Ruby's VA is making a herculean effort to make her sound gravely while still keeping her squeakiness. And it's working.
This is amazing. I never expected the show to acknowledge that Ruby is perfectly capable of doing the same speculation as the fandom once she had the info. And I love how she's speaking.
Also, I think I can hear the fandom's reductive perception of Ruby taking a big hit.
And now I can hear my heart breaking.
I hadn't realized how much I needed this scene. When was the last time they got to be sisters?
aaand, it's gone. It can only be Penny, right? The one remaining issue in the mansion.
aw, c'mon. I don't mind (I do) if she's fully hacked but the internal fighting is destroying me. Just get it over with.
Nuts and Dolts fans: "Not like this... not like this."
This is very tragic but I can't help but find her eyes funny.
Emerald is helping! She's helping!!
Big fan of Jaune's semblance interacting with others'
From an objective point of view, this tracks. She's making a choice while she still can.
From my point of view: AAAAA, why am I watching this.
I'm 99.9% sure that this is not going to happen just because a super powerful main character makes the story harder to write.
And, also, I'm not sure Ruby would be able to do it, even though earlier in the season they talked about how sometimes they have to make hard decisions that they don't necessarily like. They were just talking about being optimistic, there has to be reason for that.
Winter would kill Penny here but Ruby is not there yet, and I doubt she'll ever be. That's just not who she is. I feel she's going to take a risk (ohh, that's why) here but I'm not sure what the plan could be. They can't stop Penny forever.
This episode keeps surprising me with things that make sense and I hadn't even remotely considered before.
That was weirdly anti-climactic.
same Weiss, same
I think I love Emerald.
lol
Okay, now you're just overdoing it with the title drops.
I think this is my favorite episode of this season so far, I liked every single scene. Marrow finally got a spine, Winter is (or seems to be) finally doing something, Nora and Ren finally talked, Ruby finally got to open herself up and reconnect with her sister, Emerald finally acknowledged she's switching sides and Penny finally "dealt" with the virus. All those "finally" are payoffs from things that have been building up for whole seasons in some cases, and all of them worked (for me). If I had to choose, I think Nora and Ren are the highlight of the episode, with Ruby being a close second.
For the first time since Penny got hacked I feel hopeful that she's not going to straight up die or choose to die. I mean, I'm still leaning towards that being the case but the aura thing is making me reconsider my pessimism. It no longer feels inevitable. Which is probably for the worse, since now that there's hope it'll just crush me harder when the writers decide to go ahead with it anyway.
I think that's all for now so, until next time!

No one asked but my (preliminary) thoughts on the premiere episodes are here!
CHICAGO MED 8x01
WILL AND MAGGIE FRIENDSHIP SUPREMACY
I think the writers should grow Will and Hannah's FRIENDship, they'd be cute friends!
Not complaining about Kim being the one handling the case, but i mean the ABSOLUTELY MISSED POTENTIAL for a Halstead brothers scene? Jay could have been here as a brother, you know? Will did just get pulled out of a fire lol.
Archer being a bit of a dick? Not even surprised.
I kind of liked the Ethan-Will dynamic in this episode. Ethan was firm, Will was stubborn, all in-character, but felt they still worked pretty well together compared to how they've been written before.
Can't believe they wrote Dylan out!!!!!
Kim marching in to make the arrest? I love this queen.
APRIL!!!!! When I thought I was over this ship but the way they look at each other urgh
CHICAGO FIRE 11x01
STELLARIDE, seriously the way kelly handled that whole thing at the start and all the domestic scenes yes!
Hello that’s how they explain Mason’s departure? Someone tell me it was the actor’s choice PLS
Someone tell me why Kyle is here again 🙃
Gallo growth, I love to see it!!!!
Hearing the word “wife” come out of Kelly’s mouth is. 😍 And im obsessed with husband!Kelly when he asks Stella “are you asking me or…?” 🤣
I’d have liked Kelly x Jay moments though 💀 (but thats probably just my brain being obsessed)
Violet is gorgeous, and the absolute cutest, i love her 😍
I hope they're going somewhere with Carver because yes, I get that there needs to be some tension/drama but i think good potential?
HAWKAMI HAWKAMI
Has Boden ever interfered so much with how the lieutenants assign the firefighters under them when they’re on call? But I do like how Stella handled it and herself with Boden.
SERIOUSLY A PHONE CALL? THATS HOW THEY ENDED BRETTSEY? 💀
CHICAGO PD 10x01
This shit hurts even before i start the episode cos of the pending exit i…
The team dressed up in their blues? Sign me up.
im so fucking incoherent when it comes to pd istg. Torres going "What's up Jay?" and Jay smiling? I need more time with these two!!!!!
Burzek as partners, yes!
Kim was fking hot in this episode, no one disagree with me.
I already liked Torres last season but I think I'm really gonna love his addition to the team.
Jay-Hailey-Torres would have been a great dynamic to push through for the season which is just making me sad now
There's a lot to unpack between Jay, Hailey and Voight, but Jay being the steady force that is keeping the team together, while trying to help Voight and all? My Jay!
My asks are always open if anyone wants to say their piece, talk about the show, anything! <3

7 & 8 for the swtor asks? :)
Saving this for after work was the correct choice (and also I overslept, oops >.>) bc bOY WERE WE BUSY. So thank you, this kept me a bit more sane, lol.
ask list here!
7. Which player voice actor is your favorite and your least favorite?
To probably no one who has seen an ounce of my content ever, I'd listen (and... have... by playing) to the Male Agent for hours. I think I'm up to 3 male agent ocs and the urge to make more? Constant. Inescapable. More than likely inevitable, tbh. I'm a glutton for the punishment of Imperial Agent story, apparently. Just leave me where I lie, there is no saving to be done.
Female Smuggler gets an honorable mention as well because I adore her. I adore the humor of smuggler. I adore the sass, the take no shit.
THEY HAVE THE RANGE!
Anyway, my least favorite is... probably either of the Jedi Knights, I think. Side by side, they don't feel as distinguishable from one another as some of the other classes. The job is done; I've played both at least through the class story and I wouldn't mind doing it again just looking at voice acting, but I feel like other classes have a bit more pop and variety. Or maybe I've just played my Knights too predictably akdfnlksdnflsdf.
8. Name your top favorite companions.
Oh man. Oh boy. How do I pick??? Y'know what, maybe I'll choose violence. Maybe I'll pick my favorite from every class. I've played them all. I could do that. (It's just as daunting to consider as it may be to read.)
Preface: I think my faves are largely story-based in my reasoning - I like their story, I like how they're engaged in the story, etc. Very rarely do I swap companions because of a felt need in gameplay given everyone's capability to do anything, but I have done so for story reasons.
Okay, I decided I'm insane enough to try to pick one from each, so since that's quite a list, find that beneath the cut:
We'll start with Agent, my beloved, and Vector. The Friend The Agent Needs. No more need be said. I want to hug them. I hope he's having a good day. One day, I'll do his romance, too. Dot stop playing male agents challenge. (I'm such a creature of habit.)
Bounty Hunter's a tough call because I found myself fond of practically the whole damn crew. Real found family vibe. Idk if I love one of them so much over the other as much as I just appreciate the crew's dynamic overall so, so much. The level of interaction and mingling with the crew just felt so much higher or hit so much harder than a lot of the others that I'd rank BH as a class story relatively high on my list solely for companion interactions.
For Sith Warrior, again, to little surprise if you've heard me open my mouth, Malavai Quinn. Ironically and slightly unironically my "he did nothing wrong" bastard. I'm, unfortunately, so incredibly attracted to this smart idiot of a man. The repression of feelings to explosion of passion and dedication in his romance is chef's kiss kind of shit. They're lying if they're trying to convince me that this man isn't a disaster bisexual. He's just. So insanely pretty. I'll forgive him even if I ever make a character that won't.
I think Talos is probably my favorite Inquisitor companion. Whoever said we were robbed because we don't have an Inquisitor x Talos romance in-game? You're so right. Dude has a cool name. Love this history nerd. He's so incredible. I am so pleased he was still being bright and bubbly on Elom. Miss him.
Trooper is hands down Elara. Constantly tip-tapping like a very excited, happy dog when I see I can talk to best girl. I love her story. Her romance is incredibly sweet. She's the single thing that got me through a 2nd Trooper playthrough.
Smuggler's another no competition in favor of Bowdarr. I want to give this Wookie so. many. hugs.
Kira Carsen for Jedi Knight. Again, no competition. The friendship is so, so sweet.
And Jedi Consular is a tough one to round out on. I have a lot of love for basically the whole crew, but I think I'll have to go with Qyzen for being bestie original MVP. I'm so glad we get to build a friendship with him because I don't think we get to see Trandoshans in quite this same light anywhere else in the game.
And also Theron Shan. I can't do this list without him. Sir, I'd die for you. Sometimes you're an idiot and I love you. Insert, after all, why shouldn't I romance Theron again meme here.
Honorable mention to Major Anri. I'm love her. If I have to fuck with her directly in saboteuring of the Empire, I'm going to feel SO many emotions. Keep me in your thoughts kan;fladnkfl;dsf.

^Promo for Alert 1x07 “Shannon”
Alert 1x06 “Tim and Amy” Review
hey everyone! here’s my review of the latest episode of Alert, 1x06 “Tim and Amy”
- so… dare i say it wasn’t horrible… dare i? cause honestly anything is better than whatever last weeks episode was i gotta be honest. but i didn’t think this episode was too bad. okay ya there’s some weird ass blips or whatever but it was pretty good for the track record of this show.
- i’m so happy keith’s finally in freaking therapy!! took way way too long but finally!! but ya the therapist is right, nikki and jason really do need some sessions, even if they’re not together, they need it as parents. we also got a bit more into keith’s kidnapping… kinda?… i hope it opens more conversations for him. also i don’t trust that new kid he’s friends with… idk he just has an odd vibe for me… we shall see!
- the case of the week was actually interesting and different and not weird as hell like last week! i was actually intrigued… weird! i gotta say tho… it might be a bit mean but… i wasn’t a fan of the actors for Tim and Amy (more Tim), im so sorry, they tried but i just don’t think it was it. but besides that, i thought the case was interesting with the new twist of physically going out into the wilderness and finding people. also side note but why doesn’t jason have an actual police issued gun or anything else besides that little pistol?!
- i gotta say tho… the beginning was promising, even th middle was good but what the hell happened at the end?! they were stuck in the cabin, mike was literally bleeding out, jason promises to get Cam and then bam!! they’re at headquarters! i feel like we missed a whole step there! like i get it, u can’t fit everything in but you have to plan that in the beginning and pace it out so u can show those moments! idk i just think i wanted more of how they physically got out and whatever happened to those guys who blew up. but ya it’s only 45 mins and it’s hard to fit everything in.
- i thought kemi’s story was interesting tonight… kinda a cool personal one for her to explore. my only thing about it is how would she 1) be allowed to work on a task force that specializes in missing people when she was literally kidnapped or something herself and 2) how does nikki not know, like doesn’t she have her file as the head of the missing persons unit? okay i’m definitely just being picky here lol! but her story is interesting… i just wish we could focus more on keith and that whole situation first before we get too deep into others.
- i’m sorry but what was going on with C? who was that girl? what? all of his storylines are such throwaway plot points!! like there was literally no need for any of that whole flirting (??) exchange to happen. i’m just so confused with that part, like are we ever gonna see that girl again? bruh!! stop wasting valuable TV time for nonsense storylines!!
- okay skipping back to the end… nikki somehow flew all the way out there in the middle of a storm after the search and rescue people literally said that they can’t go back out after they drop jason and mike off? okay, you know what i can look past that… but i can’t look past the bomb?!?! what?! how the hell did nikki just make a freaking bomb out of nothing!! what!! like where did that come from?! and then she goes on a whole ass speech about her life and idk being suicidal? huh? i get that shes trying to convince the bad guys that she would push the trigger but it was just so out of character for her idk. and then it’s never talked about again for the rest of the episode… like jason u heard the whole thing, don’t u think u should ask what that whole tangent was about!!
- on the other hand, i was a fan of jason showing off his first aid skills, he’s appreciated now! scott was great with that too, he took over the scene!
- i also wasn’t a fan of the reunion between mike and nikki… did it seem kinda awkward to anyone else?? okay so they’re back together.. can we just keep it that way! please! no more going back and forth, just pick a lane and go!! also idk if i like them together… that’s probs just me tho!
- side note: i do like the ending with jason talking to a therapist.. it’s a bit of character development for him just in one episode! okay i’m a fan! let’s see jason in therapy!
- i’m sad we didn’t see sidney… like where was she? and how did no one else really mention her? i’m kinda assuming she’s just living at jason’s house? but idk anymore! i also need to know more about june.. just what exactly is happening there?! it’s been a few episodes since we’ve last seen her! this is the problem with a lot of procedurals (or maybe just this show), they add a character/storyline in that is actually vital for the plot to move forward and then they don’t ever bring that character/storyline back!
- i really loved scott this week… he literally shined! yes i’m bias but he was really good this episode! i’m still not super impressed with dania.. sorry… her whole speech at the end when she had the bomb was just so weird to me… i think she tried to come across as angry or something but it just didn’t work for me. sorry dania. i like adeola role, she interesting! i liked ryan broussard this week, i thought he did good acting out being shot and everything else that comes along with that. i wasn’t a fan of C, i think it’s mainly because i don’t like the character of C and just don’t understand him. and then i really like the actor who plays keith, i think he’s bringing it most episodes!
okay once again, i’ve rambled on long enough! those are just my opinions… i’m definitely looking way too deep into this show but we only have a few episodes left so why not?! haha! and i like reviewing things, especially with scott being involved!
what did u guys think of this weeks episode? let me know if i missed anything!! i tried being more positive lol… not sure if it worked!! anyways, i luv reading other opinions!

Little Dance
Forgive the title, I couldn't think of anything better and I just wanted to put this out since I said I would. Kinda rushed towards the end because it's almost my bedtime and I was too excited to post. But behold, the scene of a little dance between reader and Greg Tarzan Davis (also this is one of the few gifs I could find of him?? And idk how to make gifs myself so I guess this is just what's being used). This turned out to be a lot longer than I intended cause I got carried away once I started lol
I tried my best to make this gn!reader, but let me know if anything slipped up!
Warnings: none that I can think of while writing it and reading it back, but please let me know if anything stands out to anyone and I will certainly add it
You stayed in the studio after the dance class was over, practicing your choreo for a dance you were going to be teaching a few nights later. Being in the dance community, this was a common occurance among a lot of you; even though your fellow dancers had left for the night, sometimes you decided to stay for a little while after to perfect some moves, or just being in the moment with the music.
You were fairly well known among most actors and musicians, as most dancers are, since you collaborated with a lot of them for projects like music videos, movies, and the like. That's why it was no surprise that within the past year, you had met and became friends with the Top Gun sequels own Greg Tarzan Davis, who was actually supposed to be meeting you here for a few minutes before taking a late night flight back to wherever he was filming his next movie.
As if on cue, you see a figure behind you from the mirror wall standing in the doorway of the studio, arms cross and leaning against the frame. You stand up straight, a smile on your face as you walk to your speaker to pause your music.
"'Bout time you showed up," you began to walk in his direction, as he pushed himself off the doorframe, a smile on his own face as he met you halfway, holding his arms out for a hug as he did so.
"You know I could never leave without seeing my favorite person in the world."
"Oh, I know," you rested your head on his chest, arms wound around his body as he chuckled, it causing a slight vibration to reach your head.
"Don't get cocky now," he spoke, and you looked up to see him smiling back down at you. Greg had the most beautiful smile. It always seemed to reach his eyes and light up his whole face. His happy demeanor always made you warm inside; you were so glad to have someone like him as a best friend. It was very rare you had ever seen him in a bad mood. His chipper, goofy, fun personality always affected your own mood when he was around you.
You slowly started backing away from him, hands lingering on his sides as you did so. "Come here, I want to show you what I've been working on before you leave."
You walk back over to your speaker as you talk, pressing play once more as he took a few steps towards you.
"So, you already know I'm teaching a class in a few days, and I've been practicing some of my choreo for it, but I also want to somehow incorporate some moves from the Formation dance in Will's class. And I know you know those moves, you do them with me all the time to make fun of me, so you're going to do it with me. Come here."
He rested all his weight on one hip and crossed his arms, that perfect smile of his reappearing on his face. "Oh, am I?"
You raised your eyebrows as a way of saying "duh," and pointed at the ground next to you. "Yes, you are. Get your ass over here." He did as you told him, you sending him a sweet smile as he did so. "Thank you. Now, let me start the music back over cause we missed our cue, and then we can start." You did as you said you would, and walked back over to stand next to him again.
"Ready?" you asked him. He tsked at you in a playful manner before saying "you know damn well I got this."
"Okay, then prove it."
He smiled once more, and then you both began dancing. It started out innocent enough; you watched yourselves in the mirror to make sure you were getting the moves right, you laughed at each other, and you began a silent, non-agreed upon bet to see who could dance harder than the other.
Eventually during your small battle, Greg's moves caused him to move directly behind you, and you felt the ghost of a hand on your waist as you both continued to dance.
As the song came to an end and it was time to perform your last move, you turned around to face your dance partner. Using your right hand to grab his shoulder, you threw your head back and brought it back up, touching your forehead to his as his left hand found your waist again. Only this time, his grip was more firm.
Breathing heavily from dancing non-stop for a few minutes, you looked into each other's eyes as he spoke. "Was that good enough for you?" As you stared at him in silence for a few moments, a smirk grew on his face. You let out a breathy laugh.
Tilting your head slightly, you responded "it was okay. I think I was better." He smiled at you once again, shaking his head slightly. "Yeah, you were pretty good."
Heat flushed to your cheeks, which caused you to realize how close the two of you still were. His grip tightened ever so slightly, leading you to think he noticed as well. Your thoughts were confirmed when you noticed him begin to lean in.
"Can I kiss you?" he whispered. You spent a few moments looking into his eyes, thinking there was no way this was happening. His personality drew you to him very quickly, so it wasn't too long after you met him that you developed a crush on him. You've been hiding this crush for so long, thinking he could never like you back, and yet here he was asking to kiss you.
"Yes," you answered, hoping your pause wasn't giving him the wrong idea. He began to lean in a little more, and allowed you to lean in the rest of the way. And so you did.
You pulled away after a few moments, your breathing picking up as if you were just dancing again. "I'm not going to lie, I've actually wanted to do that for a while," you smiled at him again, feeling him relax at your words, in turn causing you to relax in his embrace and place your left hand on his waist.
"I'm sorry I did that right before I leave the country," he spoke softly, resting his head on yours once again.
"Don't be. I'm just glad you did it."
"I'm really going to miss you when I leave." You moved your hands to rest around the back of his neck, another smile appearing as you did so. "Well, I can always come visit."
"I'd like that."
"Just make sure you come back."
He pressed a quick kiss to your nose before responding, "I'd always come back for you."
