Cookery means…English thoroughness, French art, and Arabian hospitality; it means the knowledge of all fruits and herbs and balms and spices; it means carefulness, inventiveness, and watchfulness...It means, in fine, that you are to see imperatively that everyone has something nice to eat.
- John Ruskin
The history of spice is almost as old as human civilisation. It is a history of lands discovered, empires built and brought down, wars won and lost, treaties signed and flouted, flavours sought and offered, and the rise and fall of different religious practices and beliefs. Spices were among the most valuable items of trade in ancient and medieval times.
As long ago as 3500 BC the ancient Egyptians were using various spices for flavouring food, in cosmetics, and for embalming their dead. The use of spices spread through the Middle East to the eastern Mediterranean and Europe. Spices from China, Indonesia, India, and Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) were originally transported overland by donkey or camel caravans. For almost 5000 years, Arab middlemen controlled the spice trade, until European explorers discovered a sea route to India and other spice producing countries in the East.
A walk through the old souk or as its called the spice souk in Deira, a much older part of Dubai than the shinier futuristic side, is something I would recommend to anyone coming to Dubai. If you want history, you won’t see it in modern Dubai which is in a hurry to build the future. But come to the spice souk, and haggle and have some chai, and you can smell the history of the old Arab spice trade.
For a gourmand like myself who loves to cook with spices, this is a taste of heaven.

title means "for better or for worse" in italian i LOVE these two mwah xxxx
Eren isn’t really a middle-ground kind of guy. The world’s black and white the way he sees it, so he either loves something, or he hates it. He hates the soreness settling in his bones, loves seeing the familiar city lights again after the last few days.
He’s been in Dubai on business this week; loved the food, hated his hotel room, loved the locals, hated the plane ride, and while the loves outweighed the hates enough to make the trip great, it didn’t compare to what was waiting for him in New York. Eren’s fortunate enough to be coming home to a little slice of his own personal heaven, ready to open his apartment door to find you in his favorite position: wearing one of his old t-shirts, snuggled up on the couch, reading if he had to put money on it. Maybe he’ll get lucky, and you’ll be cooking. God, he’s so sick of hotel food and airport food he could cry. 
In the elevator, sliding up through the building to the seventy-first floor, he gets a rush of elation at the familiarity of it all. He studies the mirrored wall, smirking to himself when the memory of him pressing you against it, two fingers deep in you, surfaces. That’s something else he loves: unraveling you where someone could see, watching how flustered you get. Eren’s first order of business, he decides, is to shower. His second order of business will be to bury himself between your legs: cock, face, fingers, whatever you prefer. He’s feeling generous and homesick.
The smell of garlic and oil hits his nose when he opens the door; Eren has to bite back a groan. After Ymir and Historia’s wedding, you two developed a bit of a love affair with Italy, and had returned enough times for you to master the cuisine. Italian food now reminds him of you, of that first indulgence in years against the wall of his villa apartment, and his legs nearly buckle at the sensation of it all.
“Missed you.” Your back is to him when he ambles into the kitchen, cutting tomatoes, so he settles for pressing himself up against your back, cradling your hips in his hands. Your little sleep shorts rub against his crotch, and Eren hopes he has the willpower to at least make it through dinner without tearing you open.
“Mm,” you hum noncommittally, letting him grope you. Eren frowns into your hair; that wasn’t exactly the enthusiastic welcome he was expecting.
“You okay?”
“Fine,” you shrug. He peeks around your shoulder; your cheeks are wet.
“Baby, what’s wrong?” Eren grabs your shoulders and turns you to face him. When he recognizes the look in your eyes, he almost wishes he hadn’t.
When you’re angry, you shout, you cry a little, normal stuff. When you’re really angry, you’re cold. The look in your eyes tells him he’s done something very bad, a look of icy apathy, disinterest. He hasn’t seen it since you left him on the sidewalk outside of your last apartment together, before Italy, before the last two years of domestic bliss he’s enjoyed with you amidst your crazy work schedules. Eren’s heart drops to his stomach.
“Baby…”
“Who’s Anna?”
Your question nearly knocks him on his ass. He’s vaguely aware that his face must show that feeling, making him look more suspicious than he really is. How the fuck is he supposed to explain Anna without ratting on himself?
“Who?” Idiot, Eren thinks to himself. Who? is never the right question when your girlfriend asks about another woman in your life, Eren knows that by now. The pure shock has turned the sensical part of his brain off.
“Who,” you repeat, scoffing and turning back to your cooking.
Very aware that you have a knife, Eren rounds the counter so he can see you, monitor that look in your eyes while also putting some space between himself and the nine-inch blade in your right hand. “I know it sounds cliche, but it’s not what it–”
“Looks like?” You cut him off, eyes down towards the cutting board. “I’m sure the nine zoom calls I found on your personal laptop are nothing, nothing at all.”
Eren swallows, thick around the lump in his throat. He should have had his fucking assistant do this, he thinks, shouldn’t have been so picky with everything, but it was something so special, so personal, he couldn’t bring himself to ask for help. Hell, he hadn’t even told Armin and Mikasa yet.
“She sent you a very vague email, but I’m sure you’ll get the message. She said she has some ‘really special’ things picked out for you, if you missed it,” your gaze finally meets his, chilling him to the bone and boring into his very soul, “La Perla or Agent Provocateur? You’ve always preferred the Perla, but–”
“It’s nothing like that,” Eren mumbles, twitching where he stands. “I’d never cheat on you, you know that.”
“I’m sure,” a mirthless laugh slips from your pretty lips. Eren wants to cry; if only you knew, if only he could bring himself to tell you, but that would ruin the point of it. If you’d just understand– “My bags are packed either way. Booked a flight to London, too. I’ve always wanted to live there.”
Eren’s heart drops further from its tight pit in his stomach; it’s surely fallen out of his ass onto the floor now. “Bags? Baby, no, just let me exp–”
“Let you what?” Here’s your anger, refreshed and fiery in your eyes, rearing its head. Eren balks.
“Well, I– I can’t really explain, but if you just trust me…”
“Trust you? I did trust you, all the way back in Italy!” Your voice cracks at the same time as Eren’s heart. “I took a chance on you, and you fucked me. Do you remember how afraid I was to dive back into you again? And look where it fucking got me.”
Another furious, disbelieving chuckle. Eren hates that laugh, hates it so much he can feel his skin prickle. Against his better judgment, he scowls.
“You actually think I’m cheating on you? When the fuck would I even have time?”
“Is she from Stockholm? Paris? Skinny bitch from LA, maybe? You spend an awful lot of time on the go,” you hiss. Eren rolls his eyes.
“I fucking love you! You’ve never been able to get that through your thick-ass skull,” his voice is getting louder, but he can’t stop himself. If he was thinking rationally, he knew he could make you understand, but he’s not thinking rationally. Eight days of jet lag and work are catching up to him, and his temper leaps out ahead of his words.
“Well, I hope Anna does. I hope you love her, and I hope she fucks you good,” you sniffle, another hot rush of angry tears streaming down your face. Eren hates that too; can still feel the visceral pumping of his heart where it’s sitting discarded on the floor.
“She doesn’t love me,” he grits out, “and she definitely doesn’t fuck me.”
“Well yeah, I’d assume you fuck her,” you snap, chopping into a tomato furiously. Maybe it’s your tone, maybe it’s the tears, the finality in the chopping, he doesn’t have time to acknowledge what breaks something in him, but he feels it tear into two. He can’t stop himself.
“She a fucking ring designer,” he nearly shouts, hearing the cabinets rattle from the timbre of his voice, “a ring designer from Tiffany. That’s who Anna is.”
He’s hardly even aware that the words have left his mouth until he sees your reaction. Everything in your body tenses, your hand clenches down tight around the knife. Your mouth– Eren can’t help but sigh inwardly at your perfect little mouth– drops slightly ajar, the tears themselves seem to freeze where they’re rolling down your cheeks.
“A…what?”
Eren’s defeated now, and his sigh shows it. He rubs a hand over the back of his neck, not feeling any better now that he’s been forced to ruin his own surprise. “Didn’t want to tell you this way, but yeah.”
“Like, a…”
“An engagement ring designer,” Eren says quietly, barely able to force the words out. Sure, he may have solved the initial issue of his nonexistent cheating, but now he has your commitment issues to work with. His breath is lodged firmly in his throat and not a sound passes between you two. He can see the gears in your head turning, brow furrowed in concentration as you try to think through your feelings.
Ordinarily, Eren loves that look, thinks it’s so sexy how your forehead wrinkles, your tongue darting out between your teeth while you write or do your morning crossword. Now, he’s watching you with that look on your face, not able to breathe, feel, or even think.
The hesitation is setting in, panic gripping him. What was he thinking, proposing to you? You hate to be tied down, married to your work. He’s hurt you so many times; God knows it was an uphill battle just getting you to let him love you again. You’re a flighty, easily-frightened creature, but he does what he can to keep you with him, keep you as happy as he can. He lives and breathes you, doesn’t know if he would survive you leaving him again.
He couldn’t help himself, though, never could when it came to you. For years he’s been needing more, more touching you, more fucking you, more loving you. This is just that in a new sense: seeing if he just could get the right ring, make the right plan to keep you forever. He’d never admit it, but he’d even gotten hard at the thought of you wearing his ring day in and day out for the rest of your life. He couldn’t resist making you his wife, his life partner, putting his babies in you–
Eren pockets that thought as soon as it crosses his mind; now is not the time for an erection. He knows you inside and out, knows how your chest rises and falls while you sleep and has the scent of your shampoo burned into his olfactory nerves for the rest of his life, but you manage to surprise him, just this once.
A small smile toys at your mouth. “An engagement ring designer?”
Eren’s chest decompresses so violently he thinks he might pass out. “Yeah. I was thinking–”
“About proposing? You’re serious?” Your face is still puffy and wet, but the grin growing on your face is worth everything Eren could ever think to own, eyes practically glowing.
“God, of course I’m serious,” Eren rasps, the air gone from his lungs, “fuckin’ love you. I’ve wanted this since the day I met you, how do you not know that by now?”
“Are you like…” you trail off, looking meaningfully at him, then the floor. Is he proposing?
Eren doesn’t even know if he is, brain foggy after the whirlwind ten minutes that’s just gone by. A lifetime with you flashes behind his eyes: a beautiful wedding, definitely in Italy, signing the papers and buying a home together, filling it with as many curly-haired babies as you’ll give him. When Eren comes back to reality, his body’s moved without consulting him, and he’s on his knees, holding your thighs– God, your perfect thighs– in his hands. He’s fairly sure he’s supposed to just be on one knee, but he doesn’t care; he’s not asking, he’s begging.
“Yeah– fuck, I think I am,” Eren laughs at himself, breathless, “I am.”
“Oh my God,” your hands are over your mouth, holding in the wet little hiccups shaking your frame, “oh my God, you are.”
And right there, all of Eren’s anxiety melts off of his body in a clean sheathe. Looking up at you, the fresh tears welling in those beautiful eyes that turn him to putty whenever you need to, he’s sure. Even if you say no– which now, he doesn’t think you will– he has to try. He owes you that, all of himself.
“You know I love you, I– I live for you. Want you to be mine, forever. Will you have me?” Eren’s voice has a waver to it, bending and wobbling under all of his emotions. The slightest inclination of your head gives way to an excited nod, and Eren practically leaps to his feet, grabbing you around the waist and spinning you, just like a movie.
“Eren, ow– s’tight,” you giggle, wheezing in his grip.
“Can you blame me?” Eren laughs back, feeling like a child instead of a full-grown man who just made the biggest commitment of his life, but as painful as it is to release his grip, he sets you down. “You're fucking serious? You’ll really marry me?”
“Yeah,” you grin, “yeah, I’ll marry you. You better get me a big-ass rock, though.”
“I’ll get you the biggest one in the world, spend every dime I have,” he says, and you’re in his arms again, legs wrapped around his waist and arms thrown around his neck, his face might burst, “you can show it off to all your friends, show ‘em just how much I love you.”
“Oh, Eren,” you trail off, kissing him in lieu of words. Eren doesn’t think your lips have ever been so sweet against his, doesn’t think he’s ever been so hungry for your body.
He’s got the path to your bedroom memorized, especially under his current condition: wrapped up in a tangle of limbs, stumbling clumsily and desperately trying not to lose his footing as you kiss your way down his neck. A low groan rumbles in his chest as he fumbles with the knob, throws the door open, practically tackles you onto the plush bed. Eren doesn’t even care that he stinks like plane and airport and travel; the scent of you envelops him.
“Love you so fuckin’ much, baby,” he mutters offhandedly against your collarbone, pausing from the bruise he’s sucking into the skin, “now you’re all mine, forever.”
“Forever,” you agree, chest heaving beneath him. Eren makes quick work of the silky sleep set you’ve chosen, has a brief moment of clarity to think how funny it was that you picked a sexy pajama set to argue with him. He loves you, God, he’s overwhelmed with love, dizzy with it, out of his mind.
Eren mouths his way around your tits, palming with one hand and pressing the other against the small of your back, pulling you up to him. He hates the idea of space between you two. You’re his forever now, his to push and pull and kiss and bite. 
“My pretty little wife,” Eren feels a grin stretch over his face, sinking his teeth into the flesh of your breast. You moan under him, music to his ears. Eren loves a lot about you, but the little simpering sounds you’re making might be his favorite.
“Like that,” it’s just a whisper above him, but it catches his attention.
“Like what? My mouth?”
“Like when you call me that.”
Eren’s grin grows wider, feral. “Call you what?”
“Eren!”
“Say it,” he slides back up to your mouth, licking into it, “want to hear it out of this pretty mouth, not mine.”
“Your wife,” you give in more quickly than he expects, warmth radiating off of your face. 
“So mean to me,” he hums, giving you one last kiss before traveling down, letting his hand come down to rub insistently at your clit. He swallows a throaty groan; you’re wet, soaked even. Just for him.
“Fuck, Eren– ‘m not mean to you,” you’re pouting through the little whimpers coming out of you, eyebrows knotted on your forehead.
“You are,” Eren insists, nosing at your clit. Jesus Christ, he thinks to himself, you smell delicious. He plants a kiss on the inside of your thigh, nibbles a little at the sensitive skin. “Picking a fight with me, thinking I would ever, ever, go looking at anyone else. How could I? Already got the best pussy in the world right here.”
That earns him another long moan from you, your hands coming to his hair and shoving him insistently towards your center. He’ll make you wait, he decides, still in control enough of his faculties to engage in his favorite pastime: teasing you to the point of tears, leading you to your breaking point and shoving you up against it.
You urge him to you, still pulling on his hair. Eren, a devious grin across his face, resists, blowing cool air on you instead. You whine, hips canting at him temptingly. Eren’s willpower falters just slightly, and he gives you a quick, tentative lick up your center, earning himself a satisfied whimper.
“Need more, baby?”
“You know what I fucking need,” you grumble. Eren chuckles.
“See? Always so mean to me. Can’t have what you want when you’re mean, you know better.”
“Please,” you breathe from above him, voice urgent at his threat, “please, Eren, I can’t take it, I–”
“There you go,” he settles himself in between your legs, pulling you to his face by your hips. If Eren loves one thing in his black-and-white world, it’s having his mouth on you. It’s probably embarrassing how often he asks to sink his tongue into you, how pitifully he begs day in and day out, but he’s beyond caring. It’s well-established in your daily routine: you have your crosswords to keep you content and clear your head, and Eren has your pussy.
He’s gone eight long days without it, and he licks into you like a starved man, hell, maybe he is. Eren groans into you, echoing your own pathetic simpering.
“Can’t wait to put a ring on this pussy, my beautiful pussy,” he speaks into your folds, tickling them in a way that you evidently like, giving him a garbled agreement. Eren relishes your cunt, sucking on your clit and tickling just at the entrance to you with his tongue, working you the way he knows will have you spiraling towards your end.
Without fully realizing it, Eren’s hand is sliding down to palm himself over his pants. Before he knows it, he’s rutting into his own hand like a fucking teenager, couldn’t keep himself together with his face between your legs. Eren prides himself on his stamina, but with the heightened emotions and the week without you, that's gone right out of the window. He’s riding a little too close to the line; he desperately wants you to cum on his face, but at this rate, he’ll blow in his pants if he lets you.
Steeling every ounce of willpower he possesses, Eren pulls his face out of you, takes a deep breath. You whine, reaching for him unsuccessfully.
“Sh, I know,” Eren shushes you, chest swelling with pride at your open need, “so needy for me, aren’t you?”
“Please,” you wrap your arms around his shoulders, pulling his mouth to yours.
“Gonna fuck you, okay?” You nod urgently into his shoulder, legs already hooked around his hips. Eren’s head’s spinning like it never has before, drunk on you. He manages to get half of his cock into you before he has to stop, grinding his jaw and trying to think about anything other than how your cunt’s milking him.
“Eren,” you plead, trying to urge him forward with your ankles. A deep inhale rattles practically his entire body.
“M'trying not to cum, hold on.” He’s created a monster out of you, he thinks, and maybe out of himself, too.
“I need– fuck, need to…” you slide one hand down your body, rubbing frantically at your clit. Eren’s stuck watching, watching your perfect body swell and shrink with your heavy breaths, watching you try to make yourself cum only half-full.
“Do you think you can?” His words are hardly a breath; he winces when you clench around him harder. You’ve always had trouble cumming without being full, usually finding your release with Eren buried fully inside you, nudging at your cervix. You’re always begging for more, just one more finger, want to be fucked a little harder. The fact that you need him so badly you’re willing to try, make the most out of what you have, makes his heart and his cock pound in tune. Poor thing. 
“Yeah, I, I need to cum so bad, Eren, it’s– shit, so bad, I just–”
“Go ahead, do it then,” Eren firmly interrupts your babbling, a bit of a tell that you’re getting close. If anything gets you off, it’s authority. He leans down, painfully aware of the extra inch of him the new angle pushes into you, trying to focus, trying so hard not to cum yet. He takes your face roughly in his hand, forcing your heart-filled eyes to bore into his. He bares his teeth in a disbelieving, probably half-crazed grin. He loves you so much, needy little thing that you are.“Make yourself cum on me, fucking brat. Can’t even give me two seconds, can you?”
Your bottom lip trembles as you shake your head, more tears welling in your eyes. Eren can feel the quivering of your legs around him, any second now.
“Love me so much, don’t you? So impatient,” He tsks, thumbing at your lip and throwing in a couple light smacks to your cheek for good measure. “Can’t wait to be mine, can’t wait to cum, can’t wait for me to marry you and fuck you everyday, that’s it isn’t it? Gonna fuck you as much as you want baby, my perfect little wife.”
That does it; Eren has to close his eyes when you cum, cunt tightening vice-like around him, but he can feel you squirting on his lower abdomen, feel the cum practically gushing out of you. God help him. You squirm and tremble underneath him, crying out for him to fuck you. He knows you need him, need him to move, and somehow, some way, he does.
He bullies his way into you, feeling you pulse around him and growling deep in his chest. Your eyes fly open at the movement inside of you, flitting between his face and where he's rolling his hips into you.
“Yes,” you hiss, “yeah, please–”
“That’s better, right?” Eren’s in heaven, losing his grip on anything around him that’s not your pussy. “My girl needs to be full, yeah?”
“Mhm,” your eyes are rolling back into your head, drunk on the way he’s pumping in and out of you. Eren’s in awe of you; you’re such a perfect, needy creature, and now you’re all his forever. Shit, he’s not going to last, he can feel it. He slides a hand down your stomach, thrumming insistently at your clit, making you squeal.
“Fuck! Eren, I just– shit, I just came, s’too much.”
“You can cum again, right? Can't be selfish, now,” Eren huffs, stomach tightening with the signs of his impending orgasm. “I’m gonna spend all my money on your fucking ring, and you can’t even cum one more time for me?”
“Eren…” you’re whimpering, damn near crying at this point, tears streaming down your temple. He feels you clench, somehow makes himself thrust faster. Eren loves this part. He’s got you now, and he knows it.
“You say love me, now you gotta show me,” he just needs a few more seconds, come on, “if you want that ring so bad, you gotta cum for it baby.”
Your back arches so violently that had he not known better, Eren might think you’ve been shocked; your pussy squeezes the life out of him, triggers his orgasm along with you. The sound he emits is inhuman, but he’s too lost, too gone to care, shooting rope after rope of cum deep in you. He collapses mid-orgasm, clutching your convulsing body to him, some unconscious part of his brain is directing him to kiss your shoulder, bite into it, and he does. He tastes that salty sheen of your skin, eyes rolling back into his head.
Neither of you speak, just lean into each other for a minute or two. Eren’s vaguely aware of the cum leaking out from where you’re still joined. He hasn’t bothered to pull out yet; pulling out of you is on the hate list. His cock twitches painfully, though, still interested in where he’s buried so deep he can feel your heartbeat. His dick might be aching for a round two, but Eren’s pretty sure he’d knock out in the middle of things if he tried. He groans and rolls off of you, sliding out with a pang of regret.
He props himself up on a shaky elbow, tucking a few of your stray hairs behind your ear. He wants to see your face, your perfect face, sweaty and blotchy and fucked out. You grant him a sleepy smile– oh he loves that face, quickly takes a mental picture to file away.
“You good?”
“So good,” you answer, stretching your arms. “Shower?”
Eren wrinkles his nose, not entirely thrilled at the prospect of washing this gorgeous, post-sex shine off of you. Your face grows insistent. “Shower, Eren.”
“Fine,” he pouts.
“What? You stink.”
“Not that bad,” he lifts an arm, sniffs. Oof, yeah, “not that bad” indeed. He lets you lead him to the shower, waits patiently as you test the water, even lets you rub some of that scratchy body-scrub crap that you swear by all over him.
“Better, right?” You raise your voice over the high-pressure water cascading around you, grinning knowingly. Eren hates conceding, hates admitting when he’s being a bit of a brat, but God, does he love you. He smiles crookedly.
“Much better.”
“So, about before…” Eren’s heart skips a beat, his throat closes. Is this the part where you regret saying yes? Thought he was joking? He should have found a different way out. No, damn it, he should have stuck with the plan, the flowers, the sunset, the quartet– “Can I meet the ring designer?”
Oh. “Um, if you– yeah, if you want. Thought you would like it better as a surprise.”
You cock an eyebrow. “What do you know about my taste in diamonds?”
“Mm, big?”
“Well, yeah,” you giggle, “but do you know what carat I’d prefer? Cut? Setting?”
Eren blushes, frowns. So he has been doing this all wrong. Figures. “That’s what the ring designer’s for, isn’t she?”
“You can still help,” you soothe him, a soapy hand brushing over his cheek, “I’d just like a say, if you don’t mind.”
“Are you mad?” He gives a voice to the fear thudding inside of him, the insecurity clawing at his ribs. You cock your head at him, confused and cute, but even that’s not enough to make him feel better. It’s a black-and-white world, and he needs to hear you say it, perfectly clear.
“Mad? Eren, this is…the happiest day of my life. Why would I be mad?”
“Because…” he scrambles for the words, suddenly sheepish, “I had this whole thing planned for it– for you. We were gonna be on the Empire State Building with a rose wreath and singers–”
“Eren,” you cut him off, serious as he’s ever seen you, “are you actually being serious? Like, actually?”
His face is hot, God it burns with embarrassment. “I mean, sort of.”
“It was perfect,” you sense his discomfort, running a stray hand through his hair, “okay well, not perfect per se, but it was us. We aren’t…we aren’t flowers and Empire State Building people. We’re stupid fights and long distance and hot sex people. That’s our life, and I am beyond okay with that.”
All of the unease evaporates from his body. How do you always have the answer, the words he needs to hear? You’re always right. The quartet may have been a bit much, he reflects, pulling you to him.
“If you’re happy, I am,” he means it, and places a kiss to the part of your hair. You hum contentedly against him, purring against his chest.
The shower goes on as all of your showers together do: you manhandle Eren into shampoo and conditioner (hate list: burns his eyes, slimy), grab miraculously toasty towels from the warmer by the bathtub (love list: cozy), convince him to climb into bed still half-wet, limbs heavy with exhaustion (hate list: his side of the bed’s going to smell like wet dog tomorrow), throw on the Kardashians’ new show (love and hate lists: depends who's asking).
You knock out before him, unaffected by jet lag, drooling into the cavern between his pecs and making a very unflattering face that he makes sure to snap a picture of. You need an updated contact photo in his phone anyway.
He feels unusually contemplative, staring out at the big city from your own little corner of it, making a mental list of all of the people you need to call tomorrow, and what order they should go in. Eren’s world might be big sometimes as he jetsets around, might be small when he’s buried inside of you, focus narrowed on the heat pulled tight around him. It’s always one way or the other, though, and tonight, practically his entire world is laying on his chest, glowing a bright, bridal white.

I got into the void using your challenge: live update
Day 1:
I said isn’t it wonderful once every hour: everytime I felt doubt I reminded myself isn’t it wonderful and the doubt went away. It kept me in very good mood and my desires did feel closer to me more than ever
Day 2:
Like the challenge said I started my day with Isn't it wonderful that I love and accept my godly ability to choose my reality, and I said that once and mediated on my limited beliefs to and tried to question why I should have them when I am god. I felt like a new person
I manifested so many things. Free coffee’, a cute man asking for my number, so many compliments from strangers which rarely happens, and not being late to class even though I’m always late. I was already becoming my dream self I envision after the void
I have a good vision board I was using for my visuals. Everytime something reminded me of my 3D, I stared at it on my phone to remind myself of the life I am living so why am I concerned, and I repeated isn’t it wonderful to remind myself of my wonderful life, it worked like a charm pun intended
It is night time so I am going to listen to the third video you recommended.
Tomorrow I will write about how grateful I am for all my desires that have manifested and meditate on the phrase it is done. My dream life is already here even if not in the 3D yet I have already become my imagination and I’m excited to fulfill my desires on the fourth day and I will message you my success story.
Day 3:
Today is my last day and I am already fulfilled. It really is wonderful. This morning I got up at 3 am (Happy Aïdd) and prayed on all the things I am grateful for. I went to sleep and woke up again. And journaled about all the wonderful things I have. My wealth, my beauty, my kind heart, the wonderful celebration in my beautiful house I am having with my family, my wonderful fiancé, mastery of the void state, the millions dollars of income I have flowing in my bank account yearly, my healthsafety and protection from god, all things that will be fulfilled the next time I close my eyes and open it. Then I wrote all my goals for the rest of the year, business plans, school plans, wedding plans, trip plans etc etc. this is a normal thing for me. All I could think is it is done this is my life MashaAllah
Update:
I was not planning into going to the void until after I went to bed. But I took a nap and woke up in the void thank you so much for this wonderful challenge
I woke up from my nap in a room I did not recognize I feared I had died, but it is here. I am not shocked or surprised, I don’t know how when I cried for this to happen for months but I have been fulfilled since the first day of the challenge so thank you dear 🙏
A shortened version of my desires
Living a luxurious life in Dubai
Living with all my family members in a 12 bedroom mansion in Dubai
Many house help who are treated with love and kindness and paid well
Loyal wealthy loving and god fearing handsome fiancé whom my family approve of
Attending zayned university
Hourglass body, and 36 inches of long healthy hair that never gets matted
Misgyony free household
10/10 beauty
Long natural nails that never break
High IQ that is respected
A white phantom rolls-Royce as my car
And a lot more 🙏 thank you to Loa tumblr and god himself. I pray all of this for you kind dearing souls
Another update
Tomorrow we throw a celebration and none of my family knows I did this, it is like we have always been rich and happy when we were poor and torn apart. I decorate and set up with my sisters, my mother is cooking 30 dishes, and my father for once is helping her clean up. He now worships here rather than abuses her. I am already getting many gifts, purses and jewelry I could only see in my dreams. My closet is very large the size of my old apartment 😂😂 I have hundreds of shoes and even more clothes and purses. I am in awe and greatful 🥰
Happy Aïdd😭😭🎉🎉💕 the fact that you got your desires on this wonderful day makes me so happy !!! You honestly did the challenge in more depth than I gave and it worked out so beautifully I am beyond happy for you beautiful anon 😭🫶🫶

Ruben Dias x Black Reader - The Bodyguard Part 1/8
Yeah, this is going to be good 🤭🤭 So good!
Tumblr media
Summary - Reader is a popstars in trouble and Ruben is her new bodyguard, here to protect and help her find out who wants to hurt her. But what happens when the relationship between Reader and Ruben simply gets too personal?
Enjoy!
"A bodyguard? For what?"
"Y/N, a person has threatened your life."
"So? People do that online every day. Haters gonna hate."
You fell back against the cuchens of your fifthy thousand euro couch. Sure, it was expensive, but it came straight from the set of Pulp Fiction, a collectors item, worth every penny. Pulp Fiction was your absolute favorite movie of all time.
"I get that you don't want someone following you around all day, especially now with the tour of your knew album, but please consider your own safety first." You're sister had been managing you ever since the beginning of your singing career, of course her natural instict was to worry about you.
"Fine you sighed. So when is this guy coming?"
"Well, we had him fly in from his latest job in the UAE."
"The what know?"
"The UAE, like Dubai? Aapparently even the riches shieks in the middle east wants this guy as their bodyguard. He's an ex navy seal from what I've heard."
"Girl." You chuckled. "I received one threatening phone call from a man who calls himself the Dickonataor 3000. What makes you think I need a navy seal to protect me from that? You should have gotten one of the pumped up dudes from the fitness center I go to to set this guy straight. How much is this bodyguard guy even costing us?"
"Well, he said your only up for trial and that discussions won't happen until the end of that trial period."
"A trial?" You sat up. "You mean to tell me that this guy is only coming around for a trial. To what? See if my life is really worth guarding?"
"Somthing like that, yes. I don't know all the details. Taylor was the one who set everything up."
"Taylor? What does he know about hiring bodyguards?"
"Well he has a decade of experience when it comes to driving spoiled popstars like yourself."
"I'm not spoiled, you're spoiled."
You're sister smiled. "We're both spoiled."
"Mom would be very proud, too bad she rarely flies out to see us?"
"She will be here for your album release party, she promised."
"Yeah, yeah, promises promises, they mean nothing to me."
Your sister stood with her hands behind her back,  watching you. You hated the way she dressed nowadays, in pantsuits, like a damn politician.
"Are you ready to go back to rehearsals?" She asked. You had only gone back to your apartment for a quick break. You had been dancing all day.
"I haven't eaten anything yet." You said.
"We'll pick somthing up on the go, come." She offered you her hand. Just like she when you were kids, wanting to hold your hand on your way to school.
Rehearsals went well, however your feet were killing you by the time you got home. Taylor dropped you off at the apartment whilst your sister still had some business to take care of. You were glad to be alone for a change, having been surrounded by people telling you what to do all day.
"Maria?"
You peaked your head through to the kitchen to see if your personal chef was there. You'd ask her to cook a nice meal, perhaps one of her country's delicacies. You loved Brazilian food.
"Maria?"
She was nowhere to be found. You went to look for her in her office.
"Mari—"
"She's not here."
You froze as a big shadow swept behind you, followed by the dark voice of a man.
"Who are you?" You turned around and gasped. The man stood tall, dressed in a blacksuit and tie. His hair was slicked back, like a business man trying to appear more professional than he was.
"I'm here to kill you." He stated, just like that, with his hands tied before him.
"Um...okay. Taylor!!" You shouted.
"We're twelve stories up sweetheart, he won't hear you."
You frowned, applled by the man and his commanding, yet not threatening demeanor.
"What do you want, I don't keep any money here."
"Yeah, I realized that. However I hacked into your computer in your office."
"Y...you what?"
"It's not very smart of you not to encrypt any of your emails. I've received everything I need about your recent payments, credit card details, enough to forge your identity to make you go bankrupt in a few days time."
Your chest heaved up with your heavy breathing. Who was this guy, an intruder? Why was he so calm? Was he one of those serial killers to have sex with your corps before cutting it to pieces and eat it. Not on your watch, you thought and quickly ran back downstairs.
"Mariaaaaa!" You shouted.
"Like I said, I sent her home."
The man was right at your heals, following you wherever you went.
"What...why?" You said, slightly out of breath and your feet were still sore, so you didn't feel like running.
"Your apartment should be cleared out of staff by 6.pm it's easier to keep track of who goes in and out of the apartment if all your staff have a time stamp on them."
"How did you even get into the building?" You asked. "Did the doorman let you in?"
The man looked at you with tinted eyes, they were intimidating, yet kind. "The doorman has a shift change that occurs with a thirty minute window before the next guy shows up. I simply bid my time, observing your building all day, waiting for the right moment to simply walk into the building and take the elevator up to your floor."
"W.. what do you want?" You were trembling with fear now, ready to scream if the man dared try anything. However he seemed to keep his distance between you, yet it seemed like he was still invading your space.
"Like I said, I'm here to kill you. Or more so simulate how a killer would make the attempt to approach you in your home. From what I've gathered today you're an easy victim Y/N."
"How did you....wait are you...you're him aren't you? The bodyguard?"
The man stood with his hands behind his straight back, neither confirming or denying your statement.
You shook your head, a hint of a smile on your lips. "What a starnge way to introduce yourself and aren't you too young to be a bodyguard. I was expecting some G.I Joe looking mother fuc...."
"I think I'll do guarding a 60 kg girl who doesn't lock her front door when she leaves her home."
"But I know everyone who lives in this building and we have a doorman."
"You'll lock your doors from now on." He said, end of.
You were slightly taken back, mostly by the way he was dominating you, but also by the way you let him dominant you.
"It's my apartment,  I can do whatever I want." You said, a bit unconvincing.
"Not on my watch."
You snorted. "Right."
"Did I say something funny?"
"Yeah, a lot of things actually."
"I'm sorry to have frightened you with my unannounced entry Miss..."
"Y/N, is fine. " You said, crossing your arms over your chest.
"It's just standard protocol for me to ensure that whoever I'm working for is secure beyond my protection so that when it's necessary for me to give my life to them, I'll know it was for the right reason and not some sloppy mistake like an unlocked door or the fact that you let unwanted personal linger past suitable hours."
You're eyes were narrowed as you stared at the man, trying to make sense of it all. You stared at him until the point of realizing that he was actually kind of cute.
"Oh shit, there you are."
The strange introduction came to an end with your sister stumbling through the door.
"Taylor told me that he picked you up from the airport hours ago. I see you've already met my sister." She stepped forward shaking the man's hand.
"Yes we have just made ourselves acquainted, setting some ground rules for this arrangement."
Your sister looked at you, slightly impressed. You on the other hand was not having it at all.
"Y/N, why the long face?" Your sister said. "Meet Ruben Dias, you're new bodyguard."

WIP Wednesday but its Thursday
I may be cooking. Blame @i-am-church-the-cat for the inspo
Name TBD, 751 words
its a loscar boat thing idk man enjoy
___
“Oscar?” He hears Benny call from inside his office. “Come here, please.” A chorus of ‘Ooo’s emanate from the group at the table, one of which Oscar knows, softly flicking him on the crown, earning a squawk while he walks away, snickering.
“Hush, Doohan.” Oscar jokes as he walks to Benny’s office, leaning in the door frame as he takes a sip from his water bottle. “What’s up, mate?”
“Hey, I’ve got a new family in today. They want a full tune up. Americans, just got in from Dubai last night, apparently.” 
“Jesus, Dubai?!” Oscar’s jaw drops at Benny’s explanation. “They definitely need the tune up, Christ. That takes like- three weeks!”
“Here’s the information,” Benny hands him a paper, Oscar flicks his eyes over it briefly, gagging at the model name. “Pretty hard to miss it, biggest one in the dock now.”
“What are they- billionaires? Why on earth did they end up here?” Oscar reads over more of the paper. ‘Sargeant,’ “Are they celebrities or something?” he didn’t know the name personally, but his pop culture knowledge is limited to begin with, much to his sisters’ complaint. Maybe they’d be able to tell him when he gets home tonight.
“Not my problem, not your business. Be polite to ‘em,” Benny laughs, dismissing him with a waved hand, “Oh- also, check on the James’ mainsail again, they’re still having loosening issues. Thank you Oscar.” 
“Of course. Any time, boss.” Oscar snaps his fingers, giving a thumbs up before walking into the break room once again.
“Dude, look at the size of that thing!” One of the boys says, motioning out the window. Oscar’s eyes follow it, and the absolutely massive yacht fills his vision, the sun illuminating it from behind, a kind of halo around the beast of a machine. 
“They give it to you, Piastri?” Jack asks over his cup of coffee.
Oscar doesn’t answer, opening the granola bar and taking a bite, shrugging. 
“God- of course they did! How come none of us ever get to do the cool stuff.” One of the other boys complains. “Seniority is bullshit.”
“Yeah? I’d like to see you try to do any work on that thing without blowing a gasket.” 
The boys continue squabbling as Oscar grabs a piece of gum from his bag, throwing away the granola bar wrapper. He sticks his keys in the pocket of his shorts and puts his sunglasses on, tipping his hat to the table. “Later.” A slight smirk on his lips as he walks out of the office again. He pops the gum into his mouth as he heads out the main door once again. The heat hits him in a wave as he leaves the comfort of the building, heading for the storage shed. 
He takes the moment to look over at the boat again, its white shell gleaming in the sunlight. It looks big from here, already. He hasn’t even had the chance to get close yet, Jesus. He blows some air out of his lips, stretching his neck to the side as he folds the gum over itself between his teeth. 
Oscar can’t quite wrap his mind around how a boat like that ends up here? Melbourne was nice and all, but it wasn’t the fanciest travel destination. He’d think people with money like that would want to spend their time on some ski slope, somewhere that isn’t blistering hot this time of year. Or if they needed sun and sand so badly, they'd at least go somewhere mediterranean where the sun is a little bit softer on them and the water is a little bit warmer. Maybe spend some time off a Greek island, eating delicious farm grown food in fine restaurants. He flicks on the light in the shed after unlocking the door, grabbing a few items he needs from the shelves. 
Whatever made them choose to end up here regardless, he’d seen the type before and he knows he’ll see them again. He chucks the items for the James’ mainsail into a bucket, grabbing it by the handle after doing a once over before heading out the door.
He takes one last look at the bright figure looming in his vision as he locks the shed door.  Give them enough time to wake up before he intrudes, he reasons, as he pulls out his headphones again, placing them in his ears and shuffling his playlist. He picks up the bucket and heads for the adjacent row of sailboats.

As much as I love The Hug and ofc Mom City the scene where I felt s3 was at its best was Sam's locker room scene. That scene was So. Good. to me and honestly is almost at the level of layered-tedbecca-funeral scene which is of course tl at it's absolute finest. Like in terms of fan stuff I'm an rjk girlie forever (y'all are cooking in the tag btw) but in canon I am a Sam truther forever. His storyline was top tier through all the seasons and Toheeb Jimoh is of course incredibly talented and soo fine- who said that. anyways. yeag
You have excellent taste in scenes, anon. The Hug™️ is my favorite scene of the show but the tedbecca funeral back-and-forth really was ted lasso at its finest. SO good.
I love the s3 Sam locker room scene and actually that whole episode. Meeting Ola was a delight, their relationship brings me pure and instant joy. And Sam is such a wonderful character all around!! I don't necessarily think he always got the best storylines... for me, Sambecca was cute but not particularly exciting (and did more to serve Rebecca's storyline and growth than Sam's, idk), the Edwin Akufo stuff was not my fav, and then they just generally did not give him nearly enough to do in s3 :(
Also I know a common complaint is that Ted Lasso uses real world problems like racism when they make for convenient plot points but drops them the rest of the time to act like TL-verse exists in this better and kinder parallel universe. I can understand that point of view, and there's a lot of criticism that that episode introduced something really heavy and then "solved it" in the same span of time and went on to not address it again. The same sort of thing could be said for the Dubai Air conflict. Personally I did really enjoy the episode... i thought the boys all coming to clean up the restaurant was beautiful and Toheeb was absolutely a total standout in the locker room scene (But also I'm white, so my opinions on how the show handled racism are very small potatoes).
but anyway, problems with the writing aside, Sam is one of my favorite characters so i'm always down to fawn over him <3 Toheeb is a very gorgeous and talented man...his smile shines brighter than a thousand suns, he could move mountains.....anyways......
(oh and thank you for saying i'm cooking in the rjk tag...the embarassment I felt when I browsed through it yesterday and saw I'm responsible for like every other post 🤦‍♀️😂)

17-21 November 2022
On a Thursday afternoon i left Beiruti grounds to just land a few miles away in the sand lands of the gulf, abu Dhabi to be exact.
My trip was a gift from me to me for my 33th birthday, a concert for the one and only
Kung Fu Kenny aka Kendrick Lamar.
Friday i spent half my day at the Louvre museum,
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
then by night headed to the grand mosque of Sheikh zayed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Saturday spent half my day thrifting where i got super cute things for dirt cheap, then by night headed to the yas marina island to attend the after party concert for the f1 event.
That night i screamed till i had no voice, i whistled till i had no breath, i was in a state of ecstasy, the sound, the visuals, his vibe on the stage, his voice, his outfit, his energy was everything.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My only wish was meeting him in person but this is me pushing my luck.
Sunday was my last day, it was mall day,
I was cooked, i knew no rest in these couple of days, i made sure every night to stretch my back while making my organs breath like my life depends on them, or else i would lose energy, i would lose a day and that wasn't on my clock.
Sunday is almost over, i couldn't squeeze some beach time, so i head to the beach by night, i sit and admire this city by night, city of lights cause back home, lights is at scarcity, i collect some little cute sea shells, a cute rock and headed to spinneys to buy me some stuff and headed back to pack up,
slept couple of hours to wake up later at 430 to catch a 30 minutes ride to the airport.
Monday by the afternoon I'm back to Beirut.
This is my first time traveling alone and it was a ten over ten trip, definitely will be planning a trip for the summer.
Some notes:
Emiraties are so hardcore on the cold AC, i couldn't manage, my nose kept on running and sleeping was a little bit hard for me.
The only places I saw emiraties are at the airport, at the mall and at the concert.
Abu Dhabi is definitely way much cooler than Dubai:
Pedestrian city at its finest, calmer and super chill.
Oud scent is one of the most luxurious smells, but couldn't handle it on my skin, i perfer burning it.
Abu Dhabi was hella good to me, treated me like the princess that i am,
I love you and thank you for everything.
Truly,
Aur.

headcanon for Tom in 'Replay' under the cut
please keep in mind, this is not the Tom we know from the game. he will show some differences here. take this with a grain of salt, this is mostly fanon for my fic. Replay will resume once 'and the day after that, too' is fully released.
Tumblr media
full name Thomas Beresford-King
nicknames Tom, Tommy
birthdate July 19, 1993, 29-years-old *yes I am changing his age in replay
zodiac Cancer
personality ENTJ, 8w7
hometown Windsor
languages spoken English, French, Spanish, Mandarin
sexuality Straight Tom is straighter than uncooked spaghetti, I'm sorry guys.
pronouns He/Him
family
mother - Guinevere Beresford-King father - Thomas Hamilton Beresford-King older brother - Jasper Beresford-King
Tumblr media
color Red
food Katarzyna's Plum Dumplings
place to visit If his dad was listening, he would say Dubai because they do a lot of business there, but if you asked him and he trusted you, he'd tell you Weymouth. He has cousins that live there, he just feels so normal when he visits.
music Alternative Rock
movie Saving Private Ryan
childhood memory When he played Rugby and his team made it to the finals, his parents came to the game. They lost but due to another player. His dad yelled and muttered the entire time at dinner but his mom laughed about Tolly's parents yelling at the ref. For just a moment, it seemed like they were a real family.
Tumblr media

coffee or tea Tea
take out or dine in Take Out
call or text Text
date night in or out Date Night Out
Tumblr media
car Please, he doesn't drive himself. Although, he does sometimes wish he would bite the bullet and have his own car, to be able to be a bit more free of his family and be his own person. If he had his own car, he'd probably do a ton of research on it. He'd be really specific in what he wants then he'd drive something just to get a feel and fall in love with it, buying something he thought he never would instead.
place A large house that is too big and too empty. He lives on his own, but close to his family because he was taught that it's important to stay close with family. In a way, he's fine with the solitude and being alone in an enormously quiet house, but sometimes the quiet would get to him. Obviously, he has a maid and he has never had to cook in the kitchen. There are rooms he hasn't even been in before.
Tumblr media
1 Very charming and will melt your heart on the first date. Will plan extravagant dates, complete with an itinerary. Dates can (and will) have multiple parts
2 Rehearses in the mirror what he's going to say before he says it to you. If he's genuine, he will get flustered and nervous (and will still say it wrong even though he's rehearsed it a millions times)
Will be adding here when I need to.

When is your birthday? November 15
Your blood type? Uh… Black Arms???
Would you please tell us your three sizes? I don't know what that means.

What’s your occupation? I don't have one.
Your favorite food? Coffee beans
Favorite animal? Saying a hedgehog feels a little biased, but the ones here on Earth are cute, amusing little creatures.
Favorite subject? N/A

Do you enjoy school? N/A
Are you in any school clubs? N/A

Would you tell us about something you treasure? Maria's Soul Gem, but I probably shouldn't be talking about that.
Would you describe yourself in a single kanji? 複雑 (keiyodoshi: complex; complicated; intricate; mixed (feelings))
What are your best qualities? I was designed as the "Ultimate Life Form."
What are your shortcomings? I'm sure I could think of something if I tried.
Would you tell us about a place you remember? The Space Colony ARK. It was a satellite kind of thing where people with rare terminal illnesses, which I was designed to develop a cure for, were quarantined. Something like the Dubai City Tower, but in the shape of half an egg.
What is your favorite drink? Hot water
How well can you swim? Better than Sonic. He's aquaphobic and needs to wear a life vest. (He doesn't know hedgehogs can float on their back quills)
Your timing in a 50-meter race? I've never done it before. I could probably do it in less than a second.
Your current obsession? Iroha. Wait, that sounds creepy, doesn't it? I mean, it's true, just not like that.

How long is your commute to school? N/A
Do you have more friends than average? I'd say I have a lot less, actually

How well can you cook? I haven't tried
Favorite colors? Well, now I feel really biased saying black and red.
Anything you could never forgive? I feel like I've grown out of that.
How tall are you? 3'3" Hold on, I forgot about metric system, that's… 100cm?
Shoe Size? I wouldn't know.
Your dreams? As in what I want to do with my life? I can't really say.
Do you have any marriage desires?* My partner would need to help me iron the bedsheets every night, prepare food as they did on the ARK (I'd be willing to teach them), and if they can't respect a decent skin care routine, then it just won't work out.
Do you dislike hot drinks? If it's not supposed to be hot, like juice or something
Do you like bitter coffee? I love it
When’s bedtime? Whenever the others go to sleep is usually my best indicator.
When do you wake up? "Sun's not up, so neither am I."
Are you a bed person or futon person? Whatever's available. Miss Nanami had me sleep on the couch when I first moved in until she could get a room cleared out.
Are you confident in your ability to concentrate? I wouldn't say I'm confident in it, but I'm not bad, either.
Do you have any weight loss tips? I wouldn't worry about that

Tell us about something unlucky that’s happened lately. Falling to Earth and losing my memory, and having to relearn the tragedies of my past.

What’s your favorite flower? Wild roses. Miss Haruna says they symbolize "pleasure and pain." It describes me perfectly.
What’s your favorite saying? "I'm the coolest!"
What’s your favorite four-kanji phrase? 七転八起 (nanakorobi yaoki: stumbling seven times but recovering eight)
What comes to mind when you think about spring? Rabbits. They're gonna be everywhere…
And summer? Sitting under a tree looking out over the beach
And fall? Halloween
And winter? It gets dark really quickly. It reminds me of the ARK, when all we could see was the stars
If you had a time machine, where would you go? Whatever time period Silver's from so we can figure out what the heck is going on with him.
Do you like reading manga or novels more? Manga's just a comic book, but backwards, right? I'm still learning to read in Japanese, so I'll go with that.

What are your hobbies? I like helping Miss Haruna at the flower shop where she works.
Tell us your weight. 35 kg
What are your qualifications? Qualifications for what?
What do you wear when you go to bed? Just socks. That sounds weird, but I also lack the anatomy to necessitate clothing in other areas.
Has anyone ever asked you out? I was gonna say "Like, on a date or with a sniper?" but that joke doesn't make sense.
If I told you the world would end tomorrow, what would you do? Apologize to Maria. The people of Earth lose their chance to be happy without a world to live in.

What do you do on your break? Is this another school question? N/A
How long do you study every day? N/A
Who of your friends can you rely on for advice? Who relies on you? We're all a pretty tight-knit group. Even if I am more reclusive by nature, we can turn to each other for basically anything.

Over the past days it's been going around this polemic about Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber all over the internet after Selena Gomez became the most followed person on Instagram, taking that position away from Kylie Jenner.
Rumors have also been circulating that Hailey has copied quite a few things from Selena.
Everyone has started to create their own opinions about what it's been happening and here we show you some of ours.
Michelle's opinion:
Let's get things clear, we all thought that Hailey and Selena had cleared things up and they ended up well after the photo of them together, but then we saw how Hailey and Kylie were making fun of Selena because of no reason and this makes that all the internet started to unfollow Hailey and Kylie, and Selena became the most followed person on Instagram, and I agree with that because Selena hasn't done anything to them.
It is also rumored that Hailey is a copy of everything that Selana does because of several reasons, some of the things that Hailey copied to Selena was her cooking show, the way she dressed, the things that she said on tv shows and some of her tattoos. For me that's really roily because there's a photo of hailey holding up a magazine that it shows on the cover a photo of Justin Bieber and Hailey.
I'm definitely team Selena.
Karen's opinion:
Several years ago when Justin and Selena's couple was famous, I don't really consider myself a fan of theirs, but recently, when I became more involved in show business, when I found out about all the controversy with Hailey Biber, I was very surprised at how people can relate. things so fast and the truth is that I don't have a preference for either of the two, but from what I've seen, I'm surprised by the many coincidences that Hailey has copied from Selena, how in dresses, tattoos, words and series, I really don't believe in the coincidences but maybe the clothes may look alike because they are in fashion, and regarding her friends (Kylie, Taylor Swift) I think they are acting very childish or maybe they just do things like that because that's the way show business is.
Quetzalli's opinion:
Now I see how important mental health is being in a relationship, I have always been a fan of Justin and I loved the couple he made with Selena but we also know how toxic he was and sometimes I think they did Selena a great favour when Hailey married him because with all the theories that have come out we realise the obsession Hailey has with Selena and how much he wants to look like her.
And I was also a fan of the Jenner sisters but knowing that they invited Selena to Dubai it was only to give him space so that Hailey will start to meet him and go out with him, of course no one forced him to go out with Hailey but if the betrayal of the Jenner sisters with Selena causes me conflict.
But in conclusion I stopped following Hailey on ig and every day he reported his account because although we all believed that with the photo that Selena and Hailey took, it turned out later that it was totally false to leave everything behind by Hailey.
Ingrid’s Opinion:
For years I’ve been thinking that Jelena (Justin and Selena) should be together, but now that I am 18 years old I recognized that this was not a healthy relationship.
When Justin got married with Hailey I was very sad about all the hate she received so I didn’t know what happened. Nowadays that I checked all the clues, Hailey was copying Selena in all the possible ways I don’t believe in coincidences.
Finally when the rumor of Kylie Jenner helping Hailey to be alone with Justin during his Sel’s relationship was disgusting and for me It talks about the person she is. I will support Sel until death.
Diana's opinion:
Just when the world thought Selena Gomez and Hailey beiber were in peace with each other the internet was unleashed with a series of controversies between them. Recently we been hearing the name of Selena Gomez way to often, this has to be with years of the love triangle that has been happening for years, and the obsession of Hailey beiber with Selena. In my opinion q person that has the attitudes that Hailey has with Selena is nothing more than a lot of envy since he always looks for a way to have what Selena has. And the recent controversy with Kylie Jenner makes me something very absurd for people her age, there is no doubt that being a mom did not give her the maturity she needed.

Plot bunny regarding this reblog asking for an IwtV AMC fic where Daniel’s daughters meet Armand sitcom style vibe (plus Louis because why not)
Logic loops
Daniel’s daughters are younger X-gen given the line about the car seat
They haven’t been talking to him partially because there’s not much of a relationship there (he was gone a lot, part of their childhood was during his withdrawal/recovery from his drugs (vampire accomplice?) phase, it’s hard to get in contact with him if he’s hounding a story, etc...)
But once pandemic restrictions ease they decide to pay him a visit because he’s their dad, he’s dying, and idek reasons
Circumstances
When Daniel returned form Dubai, Armand (and Louis?) came with him
He hasn’t been turned yet, mostly because he wants to finish the book first and things aren’t that dire, but the offer is still there for him because the vampires care about  him in their own way and he passed a test he didn’t know he was taking in Dubai
They ended up in an apartment Armand and Daniel used to live in back in the 70′ that Armand has kept in his name all this time, which is how they have a decently sized place and grandfathered in low rent compared to other properties
Some cracky and not so cracky ideas
Louis is back to reading because the bookshelves aren’t on the ceiling this time. In general doing the second interview seems to have been cathartic for him. He’s still not eating people so he’s still on the weak side
Since this apartment complex is a no poison complex, Armand catches rats in live traps and then kills and eats them, tending to prefer some finesse to it all be it blending and/or microwaving since an oven would cook it too much and he likes his blood warm
Daniel is trying to write the manuscript but it’s slow going
Armand has gone from making artsy film reels in the 70′s to being on Youtube. His videos receive decent views though he’s not popular or paid for content, mostly because his videos are a bit weird and artsy still
Daniel takes a break at one point and definitely finds his daughters helping Armand film something stupidly dramatic in the living room with Louis helping (like the equivalent of Louis playing the overture to Phantom of the Opera while one daughter is helping manipulate dry ice and the other is filming Armand standing dramatically in the center of the living room)
When the daughters show up they’re not quite sure what to make of the fact their dad is living with not one twink but two twinks. What even
The younger daughter keeps trying to get the rat smoothie recipe out of Armand because she cannot believe the only ingredients is actual rats
Daniel would appreciate it if no one feeds his kids raw rats plzkthnx
Louis and Armand answer the daughter’s questions truthfully and the daughters are always like writing their answers off as some kind of Millennial vampire core nonsense.
One of the daughters has a personality like David’s and once the vampire hints start she just starts calling them by random vampire names.
The daughters and the vampires get along much better than Daniel might have thought they would. It’s a bit weird from his perspective

I’m trying to understand how one sells their soul since I’m watching a vid breaking down how Lady Gaga and Lina Morganas relationship was before Lina passed away. LG came from wealth and had everything while Lina struggled but had real talent for the arts. Her mother even stated that LG has her daughters soul after her daughter just mysteriously jumped or fell from a building. I think LG could have hired someone to kill her. You also posted something about spirit cooking and how people on earth will manipulate spirits and souls for personal gain but I’m kinda confused on how someone who is looking for fame like LG came come across that power? Because from what I understand, our souls aren’t technically ours - like we made them - but a gift from God. Would selling our soul mean we’re stealing from God to give to Satan? Hence why it’s so nearly impossible to go back on the contract (Plus all the rituals that go with that - it all seems so much work for something so meaningless like fame and fortune)
Yeah there's been a lot of shady things going around Gaga when she debuted. I heard about a story of her taking a blood bath in her hotel room... During Artpop era, she started flopping and started mingling with Marina Abramovich (a witch) and I think that's how she managed to come back in favor to the industry.
When it comes to artist, I think their surrounding executives play a HUGE part of them turning to the dark side. I don't think evey celebrity or singer wakes up and decide to make blood sacrifice or sec magick for fame an success. This is a multi layered process: the more they want to walk up the fame ladder, the more sacrifice they'll have to make. I think fame is kinda like a drug, the more you make, the more you need/want it. There's also the fact of having made so many sacrifices.....no everyone will turn back after sacrificing their children/spouse for fame & fortune....
I remember Cardi B made a video around the time "Bodak Yellow" blew up where she was in Dubai (we all know what that means...) saying fame wasn't worth it and that she was ready to retire etc... Many celebrities are pushed to their breaking point in order to 'make it' in the industry.
Don't you find interesting how many celebrities/singer have member of their family/acquaintance dying in tragic events (accident, murder, etc) just before they blew up? On most cases, I don't think it's a coincidence.
And for the souls things, I think you're really onto something. Yes, souls aren't really ours. We more like "borrow" it? Like, you rent an apartment and you can still rent it down to someone else (although that's not really legal lol). So celebrities do rent down their souls to the devil, and when their time comes (death), God (the landlord) acknowledge their soul is in the hand of the devil and lets this authority to the devil. It's important to not that's how it works in the spiritual realm: God is almighty BUT He willingly allows satan autority over earth. In the same logic, humans having freewill, God respect their decision to give satan autority over their life (by selling their souls). Ultimately they'll have to pay the eternal price that goes along.
