Chapter 1: We Only See Each Other at Weddings and Funerals
Under the eccentric billionaire's order, Pogo gathered the remaining people of the Umbrella Academy to Mr. Reginald Hargreeves office. All three of them stood in front of his desk: The robot nanny, The advanced chimpanzee, and the ever youthful servant named Y/N. The three of them were standing stiffly on their spot, patiently awaiting for the head of the Hargreeves household to speak.
As they awaited, silence became the norm. Although silence has always been the norm in the Hargreeves household, it was rarely tense, rather, this type of silence only occured when the others were still around, especially during their missions. Though you would suppose it was reasonable, after all, their lives were at stake when trying to save the world, and they wouldn't want to repeat "their" mistake back in 2006.
But it doesn't answer the question, why was it so tense now?
Was the Monocle planning something?
You breathed through your nostrils as though knowing that the assumption would make sense since, lately, you have noticed Pogo and Grace talking amongst themselves about something you were not aware of, though you did recall Grace looking dejected every time it was brought up.
"Mr. Monocle, may I have the permission to raise a query?" You broke the silence, making the scribbling noise abruptly stop. The cold eyes his children criticized him for were now gazing into your very soul, thus casting a spell upon your skin to shiver in a rippling manner. Despite knowing how he acts as a person, you will never get used to his actions.
"I have encouraged your lot to raise questions for a reason, so do not hold back when it comes to your curiosity." He encouraged his utmost attention to you, which made you more nervous than usual.
"Ms. Grace and Mr. Pogo have been mumbling to themselves about a plan to bring the Umbrella Academy back. I recall them periodically mentioning someone's death. I'm assuming they are referring to an important figure in their life, someone who will make them come back to where they came from…" You paused breathing through your teeth then continued. "So, they must be referring to you, yes?"
The Monocle looked satisfied with your answer then resumed scribbling on his priceless notebook. "I specifically told them to leave you breadcrumbs so I expect no less of you to catch onto our scheme."
The man who was deemed by his children to be a monster praised you in his own way but for some reason you felt dumbfounded by the confirmation. It even felt like your body was refusing to accept it. As the Monocle laid out the plan he had in mind, you tried to listen intently, keyword, tried.
"Is this necessary?" You blurted out. Their eyes darted to you, which made you want to shrink to the size of a molecule.
"I just don't think taking your life is worth exchanging to assemble the Umbrella Academy… Why don't you try calling them over? Like inviting them over for family dinner?" You suggested awkwardly rubbing the back of your nape.
"As much as we understand where you are going Ms. Y/N, I'm afraid that won't work with how…" The formal chimpanzee paused, trying to look for the right word. "Strained their relationship with their father is."
This whole thing began a cataclysm in your head, questions erupted left and right, your rationale losing its grip with reality because of how much it starts questioning the how's, the why's and what's of the situation you were in. However there was one thing for sure, the eccentric billionaire wants to assemble the academy and there has to be an objective behind it and what could it possibly be?
What could be the danger that made him gamble his life for the Umbrella Academy's return?
As you tried to rationalize, an intrusive thought disrupted your line of thinking.
"Master Five, your father is requesting for you to finish your breakfast. Now isn't the time for you to experiment with your abilities. You will have more time to explore them after the meal." You repeated the head of Hargreeves household's words, though they weren't the exact wording since you paraphrased it because you believed his original phrasing was harsh.
The boy in school shorts slowly turned to you with a familiar scowl on his face, almost mirroring his father's signature look. "You infuriate me."
He took slow steps towards your direction, his eyes not leaving your figure. It felt like you were a deer in headlights willingly awaiting for your death to come. Oddly enough, you kept your composure, externally unbothered but internally dreading what will happen next.
"All you ever do is follow that old man like a puppet, you can't even think for yourself and you speak as though you are following a script." He spat, his words seething with anger but for what?
"I have no use for you, so go back to your box." Five ended with a glare and walked away as though he was satisfied with the damage he had done to you.
"What about Number Five?" You suddenly uttered out, the intrusive thought bringing back his existence into both your mind and the room you were present in at the moment. "How will you know he will come back?"
"I know he will come back but, you are free to call my statement a hunch if it helps you sleep at night." The Monocle stated with a discernible look on his face followed by him quickly dismissing you three for the night.
The news of Mr. Reginald Hargreeves flooded throughout the streets of America: the televisions, the radios, and the people talked of it like it was the only thing worth talking about. Though it was understandable considering how impactful he was in today's society though some were rejoicing in his death for obvious reasons… However, what they didn't know was that this was all part of the plan.
You waited at the front of the door, in your best Victorian maid outfit, your hair was arranged how you wanted to be and you wore special shoes for the occasion. The others will probably say that you looked the same as usual and you will admit you looked the same, but it made you feel and look the part, the part of a servant.
The door creaked, which caught your attention. Your gaze was then directed to the humongous ape hybrid man of the Umbrella Academy, who was now struggling to not break the door handle while trying to maintain his balance. You presume he is still getting used to the Earth's gravity that's why he was struggling.
"Early as always Master Luther." You commended the larger male with a smile on your face.
"I'm sorry if I break something by accident, you know how long I've been on the moon and all." He muttered with a charming awkward smile on his face.
"It's fine, I don't think your father would really mind especially with how hard you've been working on the moon for years now." You reassured the male. You guys had a small chat until he left to take a short nap.
As you stood there waiting for the others, you decided that you were going to get some water for yourself and a chair so you could rest while waiting for the others. Out of nowhere, someone slammed the front double doors. You quickly went into a fighting stance, the portable staff ready to be equipped into the fight but, instead of facing danger, you were facing a man who was a danger to himself.
"ROSEYYY!" Klaus yelled out that terrible nickname he gave you since you guys were children. You weren't primarily fond of it because of how crappy it was but you forced yourself to tolerate it.
Your once wary self relaxed at the sight of him. "Master Klaus, I'm glad you are still in good condition but, it would have been preferable if you entered in a less heart-attack inducing way."
"You and I both know that I'm the light of the party!" The seance declared then circled around you, his arm hanging around your neck. "Which means, I have the responsibility to make this party fun for everyone. And~ just because it's a funeral doesn't mean it shouldn't be fun~ "
"I suppose that would make grieving a lot easier." You said rather uncertain about your response though Klaus didn't catch onto it.
"That's the spirit! Oh, by the way, have you seen Pogo?"
"I haven't, last time I checked he was in the basement…"
"Great! I'll just take a trip down memory lane while waiting for the others." He said then walked off as though he didn't make a big scene, though you doubt that he was planning to take a trip down to "memory lane".
You sat on a nearby chair and waited for the others to show up for the next 2 hours, though the interactions weren't that interesting.
"Good Morning Master Diego." You greeted the kraken with a smile just like the others though he didn't reciprocate your gesture. He just acknowledged your greeting with a nod, then went straight for the living room to loiter. As you waited for the others, you could hear knives being thrown at random directions, most likely his remedy for his boredom.
An hour later, the rumor arrived with her luggage in hand. You both exchanged pleasantries as you assisted her to her room with her luggage though she kept insisting she can carry it. But, you managed to talk her out of it, though you can tell she only felt bad because of how young you looked, despite your mental age.
ㅤㅤㅤ❲ T H E ☕ S E R V A N T ❳
Just outside the Umbrella Academy, a certain petite lady had arrived. She stared at the building before her but it felt like it was menacingly staring her down, as if warning her that it was her last chance to run away. Vanya was hesitant to enter and scared to be reunited with her siblings - adoptive siblings - who were most likely not on good terms with her after her book. However, she knew that she couldn't keep running away from them, so she took a deep breath then entered her childhood home.
Despite the fear that lingered, it subsided once she saw the interior of the house. Everything looked the same; the house felt untouched even after all the years that had passed, it was oddly comforting. Though it was most likely in Grace's programming to keep things in order that would please her father, the same could be applied to Y/N but she's mostly responsible for cleaning the yard though.
It was rather comforting that things haven't changed though it felt odd not being able to see Y/N be at the entrance to greet her. It was usually her job to greet everyone and congratulate them over the littlest of things like surviving a mission or mastering a certain skill.
Was she out to get groceries?
Vanya looked for signs of Y/N but found none. She decided to approach someone else who might know where you were. Luckily, she saw Grace by the fireplace, her attention enamored by how the fire danced and flickered.
"Hey Mom," Vanya greeted, but she didn't acknowledge the violinist's presence.
"Mom?" She repeated yet received no response.
"Vanya?" A new voice called out.
The petite girl awkwardly turned to where the voice came from and was met with her sister, Allison Hargreeves. The actress who recently got a divorce but is starring in a lot of movies like romcoms.
"You're actually here." She said in disbelief though there was a small smile present.
"Hey Allison."
"Hey Sis."
In spite of how awkward it was, both of the girls hugged it out. However, a man clad in black leather had other plans. Said man came out of where he was loitering then walked past his sisters.
"What is she doing here? You don't belong here. Not after what you did." Diego sneered at the violinist.
"You're seriously gonna do this today?" The actress asked, it was evident on her facial features that she did not want to deal with Diego's whining.
The brown-haired male didn't give her a piece of his mind but Allison was having none of it. "Way to dress for the occasion by the way."
"At least, I'm wearing black." The male in black snarked back at her and continued on with wherever he was planning to go.
"You know what, maybe he's right. I shouldn't-" Vanya muttered, as she was about to retreat back to her apartment but a familiar voice stopped her in her tracks.
"Miss Vanya, you may think that Diego is right but not all of us share the same sentiment as him. For now, let's put the feud past us and gather as a family to mourn for your father's loss." You said. Your words were comforting the uneasiness she felt, at least now she knew that two people - besides Pogo and Grace - wanted her to stay.
Once Diego's sour words were dissolved by you and Allison's overwhelming sweetness. You and the violinist were left by yourselves to explore the eccentric billionaire's house, what Vanya used to deem as her home. But, now it's a house filled with bitter memories for her.
"Miss Vanya, is it alright that I follow you around for a while?" You questioned her, the smile you wore around her over the years seemed like had no intention of being wiped off.
"Y/N, I told you to stop using honorifics around me." The petite girl reminded you, as she reciprocated your smile.
You giggle at the reminder. "It can't be helped, with how much I've been around Pogo, I just couldn't help but pick up the habit."
The brown-haired girl entered the living room with you. Her eyes wandered trying to identify if some changes were made, though she couldn't see any big difference. Unless you and Grace decided to move a decorative piece a few centimeters to the right, then she definitely would not have noticed that detail. As she surveyed the room, she couldn't help but, drift to the section of the bookshelf where her autobiography was nestled in between.
Suddenly, the advanced chimpanzee walked into the living room. A smile adorned his face when his eyes landed on the violinist whilst he adjusted his glasses.
"Welcome home Miss Vanya"
"Pogo." The brunette muttered then went to his side and hugged him.
"So good to see you." Pogo greeted but then his gaze shifted at the book that was in Vanya's hands. "Ah yes, your autobiography."
"Do you know, um…" Vanya glances down at the book hesitating to bring up the question but goes along with it anyway. "Did he ever read it?"
"Not that I am aware of."
Based on Vanya's lack of response, you could tell that she was both not surprised and disappointed. All those years of being by her side made reading her so easier. Just like the others, she was hell-bent on being recognized by their father, the only difference was that she wanted to be treated like an equal.
The petite woman then diverted her attention to the painting above the fireplace. "How long has it been since Five disappeared?"
"It's been 16 years, 4 months, and 14 days." You and Pogo said in unison, both of you shared a small smile not expecting to say it at the same time.
"Your father insisted we keep track," You stated, though you had a different reason for keeping track. You promise to yourself that once he comes back, you will redeem yourself for your past failure.
"You wanna know something stupid? I always used to leave the lights on for him. I was scared he would come back. It would be late, the house would be dark and he wouldn't be able to find us, so he'd leave again."
"So, every night me and Y/N make a little snack and make sure all the lights are on." The violinist recalled, a small smile on her face as she reminisced how you helped her at night making sandwiches and turning on all the lights at night though, Pogo did nag you both at one point for wasting electricity, so you guys had to revert to using lanterns.
"Oh, I remember your snacks. I'm pretty sure I stepped on half those peanut butter and marshmallow sandwiches." The formal chimpanzee chuckled. While you tried your best to suppress your laughter, as you remembered the night you witnessed Pogo slipped on one of the marshmallow sandwiches.
"Your father always believed that Number Five was still out there somewhere. He never lost hope." The advanced chimpanzee reassured Vanya that the day of his return would come.
"And look where that got him." The brunette pessimistically said.
Spaceboy ordered you, Pogo, and Grace to gather the others in the living room. You and Pogo didn't waste any time and made sure everyone was in the place where Luther requested them all to be. Grace even hastened her usual pace to make snacks for everyone to munch on.
The numbers of the Umbrella Academy were all gathered in the living room. Although there were only a handful of people in the room, no words were exchanged. The only thing that was audible was the fire crackling, and the sound of Klaus concocting himself's special poison - an alcoholic beverage - from the bar.
"I guess we should get this started," The ape-hybrid-man stood up then suggested. "So, I figured we could have a sort of memorial service in the courtyard at sundown. Say a few words, just at Dad's favorite spot."
"Dad had a favorite spot?" Allison raised the question, surprised that this never went under her radar.
"You know, under the oak tree. We used to sit out there all the time. None of you ever did that?" Luther added but everyone else was dumbfounded by the new information.
"Will there be refreshments?" Klaus asked as he brought his drink to where everyone else was at. "Tea? Scones? Cucumber sandwiches are always a winner."
"What? No. And put that out. Dad didn't allow smoking in here."
"I agree with Master Luther, please put that out Mr. Klaus, the smell is unpleasant and it takes a while to ventilate the house. I recommend you smoke outside if you're hell-bent on letting off steam though." You suggested to the seance as you stood behind his slouching figure, which made him jump, have you been behind him since the very beginning? He didn't see nor hear your footsteps.
"Is that my skirt?" Allison raised a brow at her brother's fashion choice.
"What?" The brown-haired male looked down at the bottom part of his outfit then smiled. "Oh, yeah, this. I found it in your room. It's a little dated, I know, but it's very breathey on the bits."
"Listen up. Still some important things that we need to discuss, all right?" The ape-man said calmly, gaining everyone's attention simultaneously because they knew something was about to implode.
"Like what?"
"Like the way he died."
"And here we go." Diego muttered as he rolled his eyes at Luther.
Based on his words, you knew that Diego thought that Luther was being overdramatic but you thought otherwise, after all you were an accomplice. You knew where this was going, you can only hope they would go for the bait but, you highly doubt it knowing how they are not coordinated with one another. Though, there was a slim chance they would work together, it was slim but it was better than holding onto nothing.
Vanya's brows were knitted together in confusion. "I don't understand. I thought they said it was a heart attack."
"Yeah, according to the coroner." Spaceboy emphasizes 'the coroner' as though they weren't reliable. If anything, they were more reliable than the paparazzi.
"Well, wouldn't they know?"
"Theoretically."
"Theoretically?" Vanya repeated, not following through with where Luther was going with. To be fair, she was not alone, everyone was as confused as her.
"I'm just saying, at the very least, something happened. The last time that I talked to Dad, he sounded strange."
" Kudos to Mr. Hargreeves for tricking Luther into believing him. Though, I shouldn't be surprised considering how he becomes gullible when it comes to Mr. Monocle." You mused as you played with the ends of your hair, giving away to the others that you were deep in thought.
Diego will not say it but he's had his eye on you since this meeting has started. He didn't understand why you were taking everything to heart. You were never the type to be serious unless told to be. This 'meeting' wasn't even serious, it was all bullshit. Which made him think, what were you thinking?
"Oh, quelle surprise!" Klaus gurgled through his drink.
"Strange how?"
"He sounded on edge. Told me I should be careful who to trust." The dark blonde-haired male reasoned but no one was buying his words.
"Luther, he was a paranoid, bitter old man who was starting to lose what was left of his marbles." The Kraken angrily retorted.
"No, He must have known something was going to happen." Luther turned his attention to Klaus "Look, I know you don't like to do it, but I need you to talk to Dad."
"I can't just call Dad in the afterlife and be like, 'Dad, could you just… stop playing tennis with Hitler for a moment and take a quick call?'. " The Seance exclaimed with jazz hands.
"Plus, I'm not in the right… frame of mind." The brown-haired male added.
"You're high?" Allison said in disbelief.
"Yeah! Yeah!" Klaus laughed as he confirmed her statement.
"I mean, how are you not? Listening to this nonsense?"
"Well, sober up, this is important." Luther ordered him, to which Klaus reluctantly sighed, knowing he didn't have much of a choice.
"Then there's the issue of the missing monocle." The ape hybrid added to his conspiracy. Even though it was silent, you could hear the others internally groaning as more words came out of his mouth.
"Y/N, while you were cleaning up Dad's room, was the monocle still there?"
"Last night I wasn't assigned to give him medicine, it was Mrs. Grace's turn. So I can't be too sure if he wore the monocle. Though the crime scene cleaners and investigators did let me know that they made sure to keep everything in the same spot." You reported, as your thinking pose shifted into your default one.
"Make sure to check the cameras around the time they were cleaning." He commanded, you bowed in return to confirm you will do as he says.
"Who gives a shit about a stupid monocle?" Diego barked as he stood up, nearing Luther's figure.
This was only an assumption but you could tell that Diego was catching onto where Luther was going with. If a fight were to break out, you had to make sure to pin down Diego first before any damage could be done.
"Exactly," Spaceboy agreed then added. "It's worthless. So whoever took it, I think it was personal. Someone close to him. Someone with a grudge."
"Where are you going with this?"
"Oh isn't it obvious, Klaus? He thinks one of us killed Dad." Diego hissed followed by him glaring at the person who was supposed to lead the Umbrella Academy, instead of retorting back his’ brother’s accusation, Luther went silent.
"You do?!" Klaus exclaimed in disbelief.
"How could you think that?" Vanya questioned.
"Great job, Luther. Way to lead." The Kraken angrily stated as he started to walk away from Luther's shit show - his words not yours.
"That's not what I'm saying." The dark blond-haired male tried to explain but he was cut off.
"You're crazy, man. You're crazy. Crazy."
"I'm not finished!"
"Ok well, sorry, I'm just gonna go murder Mom, I'll be right back."
"That's not what Mr. Luther was saying." You tried to butt in only to be ignored.
"I didn't-" Luther sighed, finally reading into the idea that it was pointless to reason anymore.
"Allison," Luther called out "The Rumor" but she walked away from him. "Jeez…"
"That went well…" He muttered to himself, not realizing there was still another person left behind.
"Master Luther, might I suggest something regarding your endeavor to uncover this mysterious monocle thief?"
"Y/N I appreciate the help but, I think I need time for myself now…" Spaceboy breathed through his nose.
"I understand, I will let you be after this but, you have to keep in mind that whilst investigating you must broaden your scope, especially your list of suspects." You dropped a huge hint, just like the Monocle told you to do so.
"Au revoir." You said, leaving Number 1 by himself, like the lonely number he was.
ㅤㅤㅤ❲ T H E ☕ S E R V A N T ❳
16 years ago is the day Umbrella Academy debuted. There's a robbery at Capital West Bank at Main and Sixth, this was Umbrella Academy's first mission so the numbers were dispatched to resolve the issue however, you and Vanya were exempted from it so you were both forced to stay by Mr. Reginald Hargreeves' side.
The eccentric billionaire brought out his small hand held telescope and pointed it to where the mission was taking place. From a distance, you could barely tell what was going on but, you weren't worried for them. The thieves can't compare to the umbrella academy's strength, so you knew you had nothing to worry about because they could handle themselves. However, someone else was bothered by the thought of being left out.
"Why can't I go play with the others?" The young violinist questioned, her eyes longingly staring at her family who were having 'fun' without her.
"We've been through this before, Number Seven," Mr. Hargreeves paused as he lowered his telescope. "I'm afraid there's just nothing special about you."
"Oh."
Silence reigned the atmosphere even after the Monocle left you both to your own devices. At the moment, he was being interviewed by the press. With plenty of time and privacy in your hands, you try to cheer up Vanya but she is still looking over at the others.
"Personally, I think your special Vanya. Mr. Monocle has kept you by his side for a long time now, despite having no powers, so there has to be a reason behind it." You tried comforting her.
Vanya exhaled as her gaze descended down to her feet. "He only keeps me by his side because he knows he can't throw me away."
ㅤㅤㅤ❲ T H E ☕ S E R V A N T ❳
The song 'I think we're alone now' played, Luther usually played that song whenever the Monocle left the house. As the song's lyrics went from one ear to another, you couldn't help but recall the days of the other numbers dancing to the song with their own dance moves that each expressed themselves as a person. The thought of it made you smile as you busied yourself helping Miss Grace around the house.
As you were smiling and humming to yourself the song that Luther played, your attention was suddenly taken away by the sound of thunder rumbling, followed by blue light flashing from the outside, and the sound of all the metal objects being thrown towards the wall. Just like everyone else, you went outside to check what was going on, only to find a blue ball of energy appearing in the middle of the backyard, accompanied by the wind howling in its presence.
"What is it?" The violinist questioned, increasing her volume a little so everyone could hear her.
"Don't get too close!" Allison said worried for both of your safety, with a hand on both you and Vanya's shoulder to stop you guys from doing anything stupid.
"Yeah, no shit." The Kraken shot back.
"Looks like some sort of temporal anomaly." Luther paused as he tried to analyze it again then added. "Either that or a miniature black hole. One of the two."
"Pretty big difference there, Paul Bunyan."
"Out of the way!" Klaus shoved the bigger man with a fire extinguisher in hand.
"What are you-"
The seance sprayed the fire extinguisher towards the strange blue ball but, his attempt didn't work so he decided to throw it towards the hole thinking it would work yet, nothing happened.
"What is that gonna do?" The rumor gave her brother - the rarely sober one - a questioning look.
Klaus shrugged. "I don't know! Do you have a better idea?"
Electricity around the blue ball crackled as the wind howling became stronger, as an image of a person in the blue ball became more visible. It seemed like the person was attempting to cross through the portal, which alarmed Luther and Diego.
"Who, whoa, whoa. Everyone, get behind me." The ape hybrid man stepped up and used his larger frame as a shield for everyone.
"Yeah, get behind us." Diego added as his smaller but well built frame shield you and Klaus.
"Well, I vote for running, c'mon!" The lanky man shouted trying to drag you back into the house but you stood your ground and swatted his hand away.
Everyone is rooted to the ground, their eyes staring right at the portal. As the mysterious person started to become younger and smaller - though you felt like your eyes were deceiving you - then said person fell out. As the portal faded, everyone began to approach the person that came from the portal. The young brown haired male gathered his footing, his clothes larger than his frame, his mere presence left everyone flabbergasted.
"Does anyone else see little Number Five, or is that just me?" Klaus asked out loud.
Klaus' question prompted Five to look down and realize he was back to his 15nth year old self, "Shit."
ㅤㅤㅤ❲ T H E ☕ S E R V A N T ❳
At the moment, everyone was trying to process the bizarre specimen before them. Said specimen was not doing anything weird, if anything Five was just prepping his ingredients and materials to make marshmallow sandwiches. Though the others were staring at him as though he was an apparition that the seance had successfully resurrected in one go.
The younger male could feel their inquisitive stares, instead he chose to sigh and raise a question. "What's the date? The exact date."
"The 24th," The petite woman replied, her confusion still apparent on her facial features.
"Of what?"
"March."
"Good." He said and continued on like nothing happened.
Everyone stared at the younger male as though he was out of place. Truth be told, he is out of place among them but from an outside perspective he would easily be deemed as the younger brother. Whilst you, on the other hand, had stopped functioning. You refused to believe that Mr. Hargreeves knew that Five would return the moment he would die.
"So, are we gonna talk about what just happened?" Luther asked yet he was ignored by the boy silently making his marshmallow sandwiches.
Noticing his “younger” brother’s neglect, the larger male abruptly stands up. "It's been 16 years."
Five scoffed at the other male's statement, then teleported to the shelf behind Luther. "It's been a lot longer than that."
"I haven't missed that." Spaceboy murmured though you couldn’t tell if he was referring to Five’s attitude or how he loosely uses his powers.
"Where'd you go?" Diego questioned.
"The future. It's shit, by the way." The younger male teleported back to the table once he got what he was looking for.
"Called it!" Klaus exclaimed happily.
"I should've listened to the old man," Five grumbled as he teleported to the fridge and opened it. "You know, jumping through space is one thing, jumping through time is a toss of the dice."
The brown-haired male blinked back to the table and paused, then examined Klaus' outfit. "Nice dress."
"Oh, well, danke !" The seance accepted his - physically - younger brother's compliment.
"Wait, how did you get back?" The violinist inquired.
"In the end, I had to project my consciousness forward into a suspended quantum state version of myself that exists across every possible instance of time." Five explained but his answer left them with more questions and more confusion.
"That makes no sense." Diego replied, which he will grow to regret later.
"Well, it would if you were smarter." The younger male retorted. To which the kraken took offense, as he abruptly stood up and tried to tackle Five but Luther blocked him with his arm.
"If you are that desperate to understand, ask someone to translate it for you in simpler terms. If you want to ask who could possibly condense it down to your level of intelligence then, I suggest you ask the other 15 year old in the room." The younger brown-haired male sarcastically recommended as he side glanced at you.
Everyone followed his gaze which resulted in everyone's attention on you, which made you freeze up, not expecting to be acknowledged out of the blue. "Well… From what I understood, Master Five miscalculated during his time travel, because of the miscalculation he was only able to project his consciousness and not his physical form at the time. And, since his physical form didn't develop during this period, he was forced to manifest in his 15 year old body. Am I correct Master Five?"
"Close enough." Five confirmed though there was a slight error in your explanation but he does not want to go into tangent about it because he knew that it would be pointless and he would start deviating from the main topic.
"How long were you there?" Luther asked.
"31 years, Give or take."
Simultaneously, Diego and Luther sat down. You raised a brow at this, complemented with an amused look on your face. Although neither would admit it, they both shared the same brain cell most of the time and it was hilarious.
"What are you saying? That you're 46?" The ape hybrid inquired, his tone giving away his disbelief.
"No, my consciousness is 46. Apparently, my body is now 15 again." The younger male corrected the larger male.
"Wait, how does that even work?" Vanya raised one of her brows yet she was ignored.
"Delores kept saying the equations were off. Eh." Five looks out the window, his back facing his siblings as he eats the sandwich, then he faces his siblings. "Bet she's laughing now."
"Delores?" The violinist's question was ignored once again as his gaze was fixated on the newspaper.
"Guess I missed the funeral."
"How'd you know about that?" The ape hybrid man asked.
Five rolled his eyes at Spaceboy's question. "What part of the future do you not understand?"
The younger male read the paper's headline then asked. "Heart failure, huh?"
"Yeah."
"No."
Five clicked his tongue. "Nice to see nothing's changed."
"Uh, that's it? That's all you have to say?" Allison grunted, confused by his stunt.
"What else is there to say? The circle of life." The boy commented as he left, just like how he left to get milk 16 years ago.
"Well… That was interesting." Luther stated as silence settled among them.
Once the abrupt family reunion ended, everyone left the kitchen to prepare themselves for the funeral. On the other hand, the servants of the Hargreeves household were busy tending to their tasks while helping the others. As you finished your chores, Pogo did not hesitate to switch shifts with you in monitoring the CCTVs, though as you were monitoring it. You couldn’t keep your eyes off of Five, his mere existence boggled you. It didn’t help that you kept replaying what Mr. Hargreeves said to you.
"I know he will come back but, you are free to call my statement a hunch if it helps you sleep at night." It still felt unnerving that he knew and it even felt more unnerving seeing the real deal before your eyes.
Although you were in a dazed state, your mind didn’t completely block out the noise from the physical world. When you heard pitter-patter hitting the window, you shifted your gaze to the outside and noticed the change of weather. People say that whenever the sky darkens and the rain occurs at a funeral, it means the angels are mourning because one of God’s children died. While others say it’s both an inconvinience and a coincidence. Truth be told, the rain did fit the atmosphere for mourning, though the children of the Monocle would say otherwise.
As you were monitoring the CCTVs, Pogo called over everyone to prepare themselves for the funeral. In spite of the rain, you all still went along with the funeral. Everyone brought an umbrella with them, except Luther and Diego. The atmosphere was serious but someone disrupted the mourning.
"Did something happen?" The robot asked with a smile which caught Everyone’s stares.
"Dad died. Remember?" Allison reminded her.
Grace’s smile faltered at the statement. "Oh. Yes, of course."
"Is mom okay?” The Rumor asked concerningly.
"Yeah, yeah, she's fine. She just needs to rest. You know, recharge.” Diego reassured them, the others doubted his words but went along with it anyway.
"Whenever you are ready dear boy." Pogo signaled. To which, Luther stared at the vase and took a few steps before opening the lid, instead of gracefully dancing with the wind, the ashes of the old man fell out.
"Probably would have been better with some wind." The larger man remarked.
"Does anyone wish to speak?" Pogo brought up but everyone went silent.
"Very well," Pogo adjusts "In all regards, Sir Reginald Hargreeves made me what I am today. For that alone, I shall forever be in his debt. He was my master… and my friend, and I shall miss him very much. He leaves behind a complicated legacy-"
"He was a monster." Diego interrupted, despite the horror that was ridden in the other’s faces, Klaus was laughing as more words came out of his brother’s mouth. "He was a bad person and a worse father. The world's better off without him,"
"Diego." Allison called out.
"My name is Number Two." He corrected her then added. "You know why? Because our father couldn't be bothered to give us actual names. He had mom do it."
"Would anyone like something to eat?" Grace interrupted once again.
"Ms. Grace, that won't be necessary." You shut her down.
"Oh, okay."
"Look, you wanna pay respects?" Diego spits on the dust then gestured at it as he spoke. "Go ahead. But at least be honest about the kind of man he was."
"You should stop talking now." Luther warned Number Two as he took small steps towards the smaller male.
Diego shifted his gaze towards Luther. "You know, you of all people should be on my side here, Number One."
"I am warning you."
"After everything he did to you?" Diego slowly walked towards Spaceboy.
"He had to ship you a million miles away-" The latino went right up at his face and glared at the larger male.
"Diego, stop talking."
"-That's how much he couldn't stand the sight of you!" Diego harshly pointed his finger towards Luther's chest.
Luther grabbed Diego's hand then performed a right hook to go for Diego’s head but he dodged it, followed by a left hook to which Diego swiftly dodged as well. Both numbers grunted with each fist they threw and dodged.
"Boys, stop this at once!" The advanced chimpanzees' words fell into deaf ears as both males went on with their fist fight. You were about to intervene but, Five grabbed your wrist.
"Their grown men, not children, let them handle this on their own." Five advised you. You knew it was not a direct order but, his words made you hesitant. Against your will, you stayed by his side.
Luther slammed his arm onto Diego which caused him to stagger back but, he managed to tank it and wore a smug look. The latino then taunted the larger man, "Come on, Big boy."
Luther jabbed but missed, Diego punched him in the gut, as Spaceboy was hunched back Diego drummed the larger man's back.
"Stop it!" The violinist screamed yet no one heed her words.
"Hit him! Hit him!" Klaus egged on.
Luther did a left hook but Diego countered it. Seeing that no one was going to listen to Pogo, he sighed and scoffed as he leaves the children by themselves.
Number One grabbed Diego's collar and threw him near Ben's statue. When the latino was on his knees, Luther tried to punch him but, Diego kneed his stomach. The clad in black tried to kick Luther again but Luther pushed him. Before he could apply more force, Diego turned the tables.
"Get off me!" Diego shouted.
Luther tried to slam his arm but, Diego was quick to dodge with a complimentary punch. Both were now panting and staggering, barely on their feet. Everyone’s eyes were on the fight but you had your eyes on Diego’s distance. He was dangerously near Ben's statue.
"I don't have time for this." Five muttered then return inside.
"Come here, big boy!" Diego taunted once again.
Luther ran towards him and sent a punch towards his direction but due to Luther being slow, Diego was able to dodge it. Ben's statue instead became the victim of Luther's wrath.
"Oh…" Klaus’ face shifted to shock as he witnessed Ben’s downfall… twice if you count the statue as Ben’s replacement.
"And there goes Ben's statue." Allison said under her breath then begins to walk away from the fight.
Out of nowhere, Diego brought out one of his knives.
"Diego, no!" You and Vanya shouted in unison.
Before you could run and tackle the Kraken, he already threw the knife toward Luther’s direction. Luckily, Luther's arm only got scraped. Even though you failed to protect him, you quickly rushed to his side as he frantically pants. He hurriedly covered up the wound and retreated to the house, to which you followed.
Once you were finished with helping Luther, you were quick to go downstairs and check on Five. You already lost him once, you don’t want to lose him under your guard again. On your way there, you passed by Allison who seemed relieved seeing you.
"How's Luther?" She asked, concern evident in her eyes.
"Master Luther's fine, luckily the wound was not deep and it merely grazed him. Though, I hope that next time he does not easily get reeled in by Diego's taunting." You said wishfully even though you were aware that was not bound to happen considering their track record over the years.
"I doubt that. After all, boys will be boys." The rumor’s statement made you smile since there was some truth to it. Although you all had been apart for years, the others didn’t change, they were still the same people you grew up with. Hopefully nothing could change that.
As both of you arrive at the kitchen, you guys witness that Five is looking for something, whilst Klaus was on the table loitering and doing his own thing. You didn’t think much about the number of people until Allison raised a question "Where's Vanya?"
"Oh, she's gone." Klaus replied.
Out of instinct, you were about to go and leave the kitchen to look for the violinist but then, you remembered your original objective and stayed in the kitchen instead and just mentally said sorry to Vanya.
"That's unfortunate." Five said as he slammed the refrigerator closed.
"Yeah." Allison was taken aback by Five’s statement, especially knowing the type of person he usually puts up front, until he added on. "An entire square block. 42 bedrooms, 19 bathrooms but no, not a single drop of coffee."
"Mr. Hargreeves hated caffeine." You reminded him but he glared at you to silence you, which worked.
"Well, he hated children, too, and he had plenty of us." Klaus remarked with a laugh.
"I'm taking the car." The younger male was about to blink to where the cars were parked until you interrupted him. "Master Five, where are you going?"
"To get a decent cup of coffee." He hissed at you with venom.
Truth be told, you didn’t understand why he would need to go outside, he could have just asked you to buy coffee for him or you make one for him instead. Though you supposed that would take longer than he would like, and knowing his patience and unspoken dislike of you, he would not appreciate the time you took.
"Do you even know how to drive?" Allison questioned which only caused his furrow brows to become more prominent.
"I know how to do everything."
As Five was about to teleport away, you grabbed him by the wrist before he could blink away.
"May I come with you?"
"I'm 46 years old, I don't need a babysitter." He hissed, clearly hating the idea of being babysat by you.
"Master Five, I'm not coming with you to babysit you, I'm coming with you because I need to monitor you in case you are feeling the side effects of time travel." You tried to reason, though you admit that reasoning was rather flimsy.
"That's the same thing as babysitting but as a shitty excuse!"
You sighed, thinking you failed but, as you were about to let go of his wrist, he grabbed yours instead. His lips near your ear, as he carefully whispered "I'm only letting you come with so someone can catch me up-to-date."
His voice and the distance between both of your bodies made the gears in your head pause, followed by embarrassment flushing your face. Before you could even respond, Five randomly teleported you both to the garage. For a moment, your mouth was left ajar but, you were able to register the boy's silent gesture to enter the car, to which you followed.
Throughout the whole ride, it was silent until Five spoke, "Did you want out of that shit hole so bad that you were willing to go out with me?"
"No, Mr. Hargreeves wanted me to monitor you once you returned." You lied well it was a half lie but, it was true you wanted to monitor him and something about him was bothering you.
"Even on his deathbed you can't even catch a break. Though, I should expect that from you." The boy huffed passive aggressively, which made you feel awful, why did he hate you so much?
"Before his death, did he ever say anything? Like wanting to reassemble the Umbrella Academy?" The boy in school shorts asked promptly, to which you found yourself hurriedly creating a lie.
"The Monocle did say he had plans on reassembling the academy but he never got to do so..."
From then on, the whole car ride was silent as you guys arrived in front of a donut shop named "Griddy's Doughnut". It was rather retro looking - at least based on what you have heard from books - despite it being past the 2010s, they didn't renovate the building into a more modern look. Which you found yourself questioning if they were short on budget or not…
You walked behind Five as a precautionary measure then entered the building. As the counter came to view, the physically younger male approached it then, rang the bell twice, you both sat down silently as a another customer entered the building. The man took in a deep breath as he took a seat. Once the sound of the bell ringing finally alerted the waitress, the sound of clattering ceramics were cut short followed by her entering the counter.
Waitress chuckled as she wiped her hands clean, "Sorry, the sink was clogged."
You awkwardly smiled at her, silently understanding her pain. Then she took out her notepad and pen from her apron. "So, what'll it be?"
"Uh, give me a chocolate éclair."
"Mm-hmm. Sure."
"Can I get the kids a glass of milk or something?" She said with a smile which made you internally cringe for her, you felt like you already knew what was going to come out from Five's mouth.
Five scoffs then says, "This kid wants coffee. Black."
That was surprisingly milder than you expected but, you were relieved that the donut lady was spared from Five's mouth.
Waitress paused, her mouth agape but quickly tightened as she then turns to the man beside Five, "Cute kid." She chuckled.
In turn, Five forced a smile which only worsened the uneasiness you and the donut lady felt. To divert her attention, You coughed and smiled at her. "I'll just have a glass of water."
"Okay." Her body language more at eased with you, the waitress then began to prep for your orders.
Five sighs, "Don't remember this place being such a shit hole. I used to come here as a kid, used to sneak out with my siblings and eat donuts till we puked."
Your eyes widen at his admission, they snuck out without you? Even Vanya? Were you that untrustworthy that they had to hide it from you?
"Simpler times, huh?" Five mused.
"Eh." The older man looked puzzled but, played along, "I suppose."
Waitress cleared her throat as she placed everyone's orders in front of us, "Here."
Five nudged you with his elbow and motioned for you to pay the bill. You pat your skirt's pockets to look for your wallet but, the other man interrupts your search.
"I got theirs."
"Thank you sir." You thanked him with a small smile, to which he returned.
As you took small sips, everyone did their own thing. Your eyes busy wandering about the building, looking for something that would be useful in a certain scenario, like how the broom could be used as a substitute for a wooden staff, a plate as a distraction, and a butterknife for stabbing.
Five glanced at the other customer's vest then strikes up a conversation with him. "You must know your way around the city."
"I hope so, I've been driving for 20 years."
"Good, I need an address."
Five asks for an address for the place he is looking for and the man jots it down on a napkin then leaves once he's finished. The boy then carefully folds the napkin and stuffs it in his blazer's one of many hidden pockets.
As the brown haired boy was about to drink his coffee, he heard the door swing open then notices the reflection of the newcomer - rather newcomers - from the bell, all of them were wearing combat gear which meant one thing...
"Hmm. That was fast."
You glanced at him, confused by what was happening and how Five knew these people.
"I thought I'd have more time before they found me." His answer did not suffice your curiosity.
"Okay. So, let's all be professional about this, yeah?" One of the masked men proposed but the boy beside you had other plans.
Five placed a hand on your thigh then began to do Morse code of 'SOS' to notify you are both in danger. At first you were in high alert, ready to take out your retractable staff but, the boy followed up his secret message with 'I can handle it'. You were not at ease by his answer, not one bit.
"On your feet and come with us. They want to talk." The leader of the masked men demanded as he used his firearm to gesture for Five to go down on his knees.
"I've got nothing to say." Five said so breezily and arrogance which bothered you even more, is this how he handles live hostages?
"It doesn't have to go this way. You think I want to shoot a kid? Go home with that on my conscience?"
"Well, I wouldn't worry about that…" Five turns to the person who had his firearm pointed towards Five's head. "You won't be going home."
Five retreats his hand from your thigh then grabs a butterknife and teleports behind the group leader and stabbed his neck. Then he quickly disappears, while they were distracted by their dead comrade, he reappeared by your side and teleported you behind the counter. Against your will, you peeked and watched him do his work.
He blinked then reappeared on top of a counter, with a very relaxed pose with a smug look on his face. "Hey, assholes!"
You did not like the fact that he looked like he was enjoying this.
The gunmen were shooting at where the voice came from but, he disappeared, leaving the men to shoot up the place and leave it in ruins. The boy in school shorts reappeared at the front door then knocks on it to get their attention, as they ready their firearms to shoot at him. He mockingly salutes then vanishes once again.
You didn't want to be useless so you took a nearby mop and broke it then, stabbed one of the gunmen using the broken half. Before one of the nearest attacker could shoot a bullet through your skull, Five quickly untied his necktie then choked him.
As he was busy, you threw a plate towards a thug's head to distract him and the others. Whilst Five grabbed a pencil then stabbed one of the gunmen that was about to try and tower his smaller figure.
The last two thugs were about to charge their guns at you but, Five ran to your side and blinked away with you in his arms, as the idiots shot themselves. As silence finally settled in, he reappeared to the masked man he was choking earlier and retrieved his necktie.
As you were examining the donut shop, you noticed one of the gunmen is still alive so you approached him then snapped his neck to end his misery. As you left his side, he noticed that one of the men after him dropped a tracking device, which explained how they found him so quickly.
The brown haired boy asked you to use one of the assassin's knife to cut open his arm and dig into his arm to remove the tracking device. Once you were both done, you guys left the building and dropped the tracking device in a nearby puddle then left as if nothing happened.
Five and you made your way to Vanya's apartment, well it was mostly you leading the way since you were the one who memorized the way there. Instead of loitering outside Vanya's apartment like a normal person, Five had other ideas. Without a word he grabbed your wrist and teleported you guys into the violinist's apartment.
Suddenly, the door clicked and the doorknob turned, which Five took as his cue to turn on the light, which made Vanya jump on her heels. Although you knew it was not an appropriate time, you smiled and waved at Vanya nonetheless. You were just glad she came home safe.
"Jesus!" She jumped, a hand on where her heart is supposed to be.
"You should have locks on your windows." Five suggested.
"I live on the second floor."
"Rapists can climb."
You tried to stop yourself from chuckling at his statement, knowing it was a serious conversation and He probably would not appreciate your response.
"You are so weird." The petite girl mumbled as she sat beside you then, began checking on both of you guys. Based on how her eyes widened, you could tell she noticed there were some specks of blood on both of your clothes.
"What happened?" Vanya's worry evident on her facial features.
"It's nothing." Five dismissed but the violinist's lingering gaze never left the specks of blood on his collar.
"Why are you both here?" Vanya asserted.
"I've decided you two are the only ones I can trust." Both girls in the room raised their brows at Five, this type of situation was rare and rather odd.
"Why me?"
"Because you're ordinary."
You glared at Five and stepped on his foot, to which he rolled his eyes at. He forgot you were very protective of Vanya.
"Because you'll listen." He corrected himself though the petite girl had his doubts.
"Miss Vanya, is it alright if we use your first aid kit? We weren't able to pass by a pharmacy on the way here and I'd like to disinfect and treat Master Five's cut." You asked and she went to the bathroom to get the first aid kit then gave it to you. As the servant, you did your task like always, which is to aid with the numbers wounds.
"When I jumped forward and got stuck in the future. Do you know what I found?" The brown haired boy asked.
"No."
"Nothing… Absolutely nothing."
You paused from tending with his wounds and checked if he was telling the truth, he was dead serious.
ㅤㅤㅤ❲ T H E ☕ S E R V A N T ❳
The world lay in ruins, a wasteland of rubble and debris. What was once bustling cities and towns were now piles of twisted metal and broken concrete. The streets were empty, save for the occasional scavenger picking through the remains of what was once a home or a business. The air was thick with dust and smoke, making it difficult to see more than a few feet ahead. It was a world of silence, save for the occasional sound of rubble shifting or the distant echoes of a once-great civilization now reduced to rubble and fire.
Five stood amongst the rubble devastated by what the future had become. It was now a world of despair, a place where hope had been lost and the future was uncertain.
"As far as I could tell, I was the last person left alive."
Five walked then found a newspaper and read the title.
"I never figured out what killed the human race, but… I did find something else."
"The date it happens."
ㅤㅤㅤ❲ T H E ☕ S E R V A N T ❳
"The world ends in eight days, and I have no idea how to stop it." He said, his words were soft but it was enough to cause your heart to tremble in fear. Both you and Vanya had shocked engraved onto your faces, still processing what you guys heard.
Knowing this sounded like it was going to be a long night, you turned to the girl next to you and asked, "Miss Vanya if it's alright, may I put on a pot of coffee?"
Vanya nodded wordlessly, as she agreed this was going to be a long night for everyone else.

I moved some moments from the other episode to here because it was already pretty long. Also I'm adding a scene from the second comic into this chapter.
Anyway...
Characters talking...
Five Hargreeves
You
Allison Hargreeves
Klaus Hargreeves
Diego Hargreeves
Vanya Hargreeves
Ben Hargreeves
Pogo
Grace

Everyone else is in white.
"Five what do you think?"
A younger you smiles at the boy holding up a flower crown you had made from the few remaining plants in the world.
"It's nice. Brings out your eyes."
You frown at him as you watch him put one of your dresses you found on Delores.
"You're not even looking..."
Five turns towards you looking at your flower crown before returning his attention back to what he was doing.
"It's nice. Brings out your eyes."
You shake your head with a smile on your face, rolling your eyes at his statement.
"What am I going to do with you?"
Five shrugs as you walk and sit next to him, placing the crown on his head. He side eyes you and you give a smile in return.
You two sit in silence for a moment, you study his face as he starts to fix your Delores' dress. You move a strand of hair from in front of his eyes, your hand lingers and Five lets your hand rest near his ear for a moment before removing it.
"Tell me a story, Five."
Five's brows scrunch together.
"About?"
"Anything."
You lay down on the ground placing your head into your hands, giving him your full attention.
"Once upon a time there lived a mermaid princess."
You glare at him, raising your hand to stop him from continuing.
"Stop. That's not what I meant."
"Then what do you want."
You roll your eyes at him in frustration, he glares at you in return. You might be able to peel in his mind when he has his guard down but he sure as hell couldn't read yours.
"Tell me something about you."
"Like what?"
"Anything!!"
You open your arms in a big gesture which causes Five to roll his eyes.
"Fine. About a few years ago when I turned 13..."
-
"Nietzsche once said, Man is as a rope stretched between the animal and the superhuman."
Our dad had us lined up against the wall, something he would do everyday always reading us a page from his book. Well he would tell us to wait under the stairs but Number 1 and 2 deemed it fair for everyone to start at the wall.
"A rope over the abyss. It is a dangerous crossing, a dangerous looking back, a dangerous trembling and halting."
He would always have Number 7 with him watching us. Something twisted he did to remind her that she was nothing like us. She would stand at his side as he wrote down information in his book about us as if we were his test subjects than his children.
That day was like any other, Number 7 blew her whistle and we all raced up the stairs.
"As much as you must strive for individual greatness, and strive you must, for it won't come to you of its own accord..."
Number 1 and 2 fought for first place like they always did, usually I would stay behind and chat with my brothers Number 4 and 6 but I had been working on my jumps and wanted to prove that I had gotten better.
"That there is no individual stronger than the collective."
I jumped in front of them instantly gaining the lead much to the annoyance of 1 and 2. I didn't care how upset they were I wanted to prove I was better. I don't know why, maybe it was the fact that our father put us in competition every day.
"That's not fair, Five's cheating!"
"He adapted."
It was nice to finally get some words of accomplishment from him even if it wasn't directly said to me. I won that day, though not all of my siblings were happy for me.
"The ties that bind you together make you stronger than you are alone."
That was the day I also got my tattoo. My siblings and I were nervous about it.
"They will make you impervious to the pain and hardship the world will thrust upon you."
It was a painful process though none of us wanted to show it. Number 2 basically pushed our Mom away to prove to Dad that he could handle it. Number 3 cried after, our brother Number 4 tried to comfort her.
What about Number 7? Well she drew hers on.
"And believe me when I tell you, life will be hard. It will be painful."
-
"Give me your best impression of your father."
You laugh as Five uses one hand to make a circle around his eye, he sends you a playful smile before making the most over the top frown on his face. He clears his throat before speaking the most proper accent.
"You might be born with powers but there's a difference between special and extraordinary. And you are neither."
"That accent."
Five eyes you mischievously before lying down next to you.
"It's obnoxious, I know."
You send him a sympathetic smile as he looks at the darkening sky.
"Did he really say that to you?"
He shrugs with a blank face trying to hide any emotion from seeping through.
"Number 7 had it worse than any of us. He made her a special example because she was the only one without powers. She had to hear that statement everyday. And from the looks of it things didn't get better according to her book."
You thought Five's impression was funny, the words though not so much. And by the look in his eyes you could see that in some capacity he might have actually believed those words his father told them.
You turn your body in the direction of Five before placing your hand on his cheek and turning his face towards you.
"I think you're extraordinary, Five Hargreeves."
Five looks into your eyes, looking for any signs of deceit but he couldn't find any. He smiles at you before grabbing your hand that was laid on his cheek..
⌛⌛⌛⌛ Violence in 321⌛⌛⌛⌛
Back at Griddy's,
Five knocks on the glass gaining the attention of the one of the Temps, he teleports as their finger pushes down on the trigger causing them to shoot at the glass. Five watches from the shadows and breaks a mop that sat beside him before teleporting next to the agent at the door and stabbing them in the side.
Five teleports behind another agent; who was distracted by the death of his coworker, Five uses his tie to choke the man to death. Another agent tries to sneak up on him only to get stabbed with a pencil in the dick, Five throws a plate at another agent with enough force that makes him crash into a wall before turning his attention back to the one in front of him and using the same pencil to stab the agent in the eye.
Five watches as two other agents turn towards him with their guns raised. He teleports out of the way causing the two to shoot each other to death.
Five looks down at the bloody and bruised bodies around him with a sadistic smile on his face, his uniform drenched in their blood, he walks up to the agent he choked out and grabs his tie, tying it around his neck. He turned his head to where he heard breathing and slowly walked up to the now maskless agent before snapping his neck.
He felt proud, like he somehow gave you a little bit of justice, He knew he couldn't save you; he didn't have a way back to the commission office but at least he felt like he could do this for you.
Five lets out a breathe before walking up to the counter and using a knife to cut into his skin not noticing cars pulling up in the parking lot behind him. He pulls out the tracker before walking outside and tosses it into the sewer.
Agents come out of their cars and surround him again.
Five sighs before taking his tie from around his neck and tying it around his wounded arm.
"Give me a fucking break."
One of the agents walks forward while the rest backup, taking cover behind their cars.
"It isn't standard protocol of the Temps Aeternalis to make such a spectacle."
Five crosses his arms, a dark glare making its way on his face.
"All of your corpses scattered in the store and around the parking lot isn't going to be 'discrete'.
The agent removes his mask.
"We don't want any trouble, Number 5. We just want you to come back and finish the job."
"That's unfortunate, because I am no longer in the practice of doing anything anyone wants me to do."
Five turns to walk away but the agent points his gun into the back of Five's head.
"Most unfortunate. Because my supervisors see you as a valuable asset to the commission."
The agent's hand shakes a little at the thought of taking the life of the person who they were explicitly told not to kill under in circumstances but if he wouldn't come willingly...
"An expensive acquisition, and a prize worth hunting until it has been captured..."
The agent lets out a breath before straightening their poster.
"Or killed."
"Well aren't you a bunch of tigers..."
The agent looks at him, confused.
"So hungry, so poised... All sharp teeth and swagger."
Five studies his surroundings as he speaks to the agent.
"A tiger shows a hundred stripes, but I know it has more than that. A tiger hides them. Do you know where it keeps them?"
"No-"
"Here's a hint."
Five teleports onto his shoulders and sticks his thumbs into his eyes, so deep that his blood comes out.
"Forget about the mission, Kill him!!"
Another agent yells out causing the others to shoot at the direction of the two men however Five already teleported by then causing them to shoot at the cars instead making them catch fire.
Five grabs a gun from the one of the car trunks as the cars start to blow up one by one killing the agents beside them.
"Get to cover!!"
Five's blood covered finger pushes down on the trigger, shooting some of the agents that tried to run.
He continues to teleport around gaining more agents attention and laughing as they keep blowing up more and more cars, killing their own members.
"Fast. Too Fast."
Five lands on the ground with the gun in his hand, burning bodies and cars surrounded the outside of Griddy's.
"I am in the jungle and I am too fast for you."
Five watches as one of the agents tries to crawl away.
"You have teeth and stripes and things that tear."
Five reloads the gun.
"But I am much too fast. You want my flesh, but you don't know where the jungle is...only I know where the jungle is...only I know."
Five shoots the agent in the head.
"I am a gazelle. I will always be faster than you."
Five lets out a satisfied laugh but that soon stops at the sound of static.
"W-we need them now...T-target confirmed in this area..."
Five teleports to where the voice was coming from.
"P-please send help..."
Five shoots the guy dead and let's out a sigh before static fills his ears again.
"Mission control dispatching Hazel and ChaCha..."
Five's eyes widened in fear.
"God dammit.."

"Handler, Handler!!"
The Handler looked up from her desk in the direction of the panicked Agent that walked into the room.
"Unless this is about the two traitors, I don't want to hear it."
"It is ma'am. Five was last located at Griddy's, a call came in confirming the location before the line went dead. But it seems Five has somehow taken his tracking device out."
The Handler squeezes her fist tightly at the agent's words.
"Yes, Yes. I am aware. Any Idea where he is now?"
The agent shakes their head with a slight frown on their face.
"No Ma'am. Nothing recent."
"So he's missing..."
The agent nods.
"Yes Ma'am."
"And the other one?"
The agent looks down at the clipboard in their hands.
"Looks like she's in a different timeline. I've already made preparations to send agents after her."
"I've already sent the Hazels and ChaChas on this mission."
The agent's face paled at her words. The Hazels and ChaChas were good at their jobs, great even but three of the four were sick. They'd do anything to complete a mission. Anything.
"B-But I thought you wanted them back alive..."
The Handler stands up looking the agent dead in the eye.
"I told them to beat Five up a little if they have to but I need him alive. Do what they will with the other one."
The agent lets out a little gulp and nods nervously before leaving the room.
🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧
You ducked into a theater with your hands covering your ears as the sounds of gunfire sounded in the air.
As soon as you left the commission building, you used the suitcase to bring you to the past. You remembered Five mentioning the day the apocalypse happened from some newspaper he found. You weren't there when it happened since you were dealing with your own issues under water but you took his word for it.
Not even an hour into leaving the commission office, did you encounter the sound of maniacal laughter. Hazel and ChaCha.
Luckily from the quick glance you got of them before ducking behind a seat, it seemed like it was only two of them which relieved you a little bit until you realized you had the blood thirsty ones on your trail.
"Y/N come out, come out, wherever you are."
"Fuck me...."
You whispered to yourself as you looked over the seats to see how far they were. Their pink and blue masks seemed like they were mocking you as they got closer and closer to your area.
"How'd they even..."
Duck back down and looked at your arm.
"Shit..."
The gun shots stopped for a second and you looked up to see what they were doing. The two men in masks were looking down at the tracking device in Chacha's hand before looking in the direction of where you hid. You quickly ducked back down, since the other people that were around started shooting in your direction. Catching the attention of Hazel and ChaCha.
You couldn't see them but in that moment you felt extreme terror. How were you going to get out of this?
You closed your eyes trying to think of a way to get yourself out of this situation.
You could use your siren voice but there was no way of knowing if they were wearing headphones under those masks.
Not to mention there was already so much going on in that moment. Bullets rain in the air, trying to hit whatever they could make contact with while a blinding white light burned your eyes as you tried to take a look at the commotion that was also happening behind you.
You pulled out a pocket knife that Johnny had slipped into your pocket. You winced as you cut deep into your arm before sticking your fingers in to pull out the tracker that was in there.
"Fuck!"
You didn't have too much time to worry about your wound because a voice started to yell above the commotion. You turned in the direction of the entrance to find a guy dressed in a red and white shirt, dark jeans and a green vest hopping over the stairs case. His hair was messy and he had dark makeup around his eyes, he looked about your age well... younger.
You started to panic as the agents turned their guns towards him. You rushed over; suitcase in hand, without even thinking and pulled the guy down and covered him with your arms as the guns fired off again.
You looked at the dude and checked for any injuries before looking over the seats again after finding none. Your eyes widened as you found the familiar face of a twenty year old Five hopping on the back of one of the agents and moving his gun to where he ended up shooting his own partners that were close by.
You're blinded again as the guy beside you, hands start to glow a similar shade of blue to Five's. Then you realize who this could be, a small smile makes its way on your face. One of Five's brothers that he'd always talk about. You were finally able to meet one though you wished it was under better circumstances.
He stands up and spreads his hands, the next thing you know all the agents are being thrown around or killed. You looked at him in amazement, this could only be Klaus. Five told you about his siblings powers but to actually see it in action.
"Wow. You're amazing."
The guy you assumed was Klaus smiled at your reaction and gave you a bashful look.
"Thank you. It was nothing."
Unknowingly to you, his ghost brother beside him let out a sigh as he continues to tear the other agents apart.
"Really Klaus?"
Your attention is pulled again ChaCha walks in, This was the female ChaCha, unlike her counterpart who was now making eye contact with her, she didn't have her mask.
She looks taken back at the sight of the other two before recognition filled her eyes.
"She's here?"
ChaCha nods at her.
"She is."
Five takes cover in the seats closest to watching as his brother uses his powers to conjure the other. His attention quickly shifts to you and his eyes filled with happiness and relief.
He teleports behind you and you jump as he places his hands on your shoulders taking your attention away from the brother in front of you.
Your eyes start to water as you face him, he sends you a small grin before pulling you into a hug. For you it might have only been two or three days but Five had eight long days without you. Tears fill his eyes at the warmth of your body against his, yours had already started to fall as you pulled him against you tighter. If it was one thing you two could admit, it's that being without the other was like hell.
You breathe in his scent before pulling back and placing your hands on his cheeks. You watch as his grin turns into a wide smile, one that showed off his dimples, tears of relief falling down his face. You pull his face closer to yours before giving him a lot of kisses around his face getting a genuine laugh from him. After you finish, he places his forehead against yours.
"I missed you."
He looks deep into your eyes.
"So m-much."
You pull him into another hug which causes him to whimper.
"But you can't stay here."
You pull your head back to look at him with questioning eyes.
"I need you to go back a few days.''
"Back?"
Five nods.
"I need you to find me and tell me it's Vanya."
Your eyes squint in confusion not processing what he meant.
"Do you understand?"
You shake your head.
"I just found you."
Five messes with the suitcase before handing it to you.
"I need you to understand."
You shake your head, not wanting to say goodbye.
"Please..."
You looked into his eyes and knew he wasn't going to change his mind on this one. You nodded with a sad look in your eye.
"Don't look at me like that."
Five frowns as he rubs your cheek with his thumb.
"You'll find me again."
You take a deep breath before giving him a nod of assurance.
"I won't let you down."
"I know you won't."
⌛🎻⌛🎻⌛🎻⌛🎻⌛🎻⌛🎻⌛🎻
Vanya walks down the hall to her apartment with a look of disgust on her face. The meeting she went to was distrubing to say the least. She had gone to the theatre where the person on the phone said he would be and discovered an orchestra there though the atmosphere didn't feel right. It felt more like a cult and at the head of it was the conductor.
He had forced her to play a song to show off her skill before telling her of a piece he wrote. He called it, 'The Apocalypse Suite.'
Vanya thought it was a waste of time and turned to leave with him taunting her as she did. It all felt like some type of sick joke.
Vanya took a breath to calm her nerves before unlocking her door and stepping inside. She jumped in fright when the lamp on the other side of the room lit up to reveal Five sitting on the couch, one leg crossed over the other.
"Jesus!"
"You should really have locks on your windows."
Vanya looked at him confused as she placed her keys down and turned to lock the door.
"I live on the second floor."
He gave her the most blank stare.
"Rapists can climb."
There was a beat of silence.
"You are so weird."
Five studies her as she sits on the couch. Vanya nervously rubs her hands against her pants before giving him a concerned look.
"Is that blood?"
Five slightly glances at his collar and soothes himself by rubbing his fingers together.
"It's nothing."
Vanya looks at him like she doesn't buy it but there was no use trying to get any answers from him, she learnt that from her father.
"Why are you here?"
Five pauses a moment to think about what he wanted to say.
"I've decided you're the only one I can trust."
"Why me?"
"Because you're ordinary."
Five watches as a crestfallen look befalls her face. He backtracks after he realizes that was the wrong thing to say.
"Because you'll listen."
Vanya gets up and goes into the bathroom to get things to help heal his self inflicted wound. She winces as he reveals it before cleaning it.
Five talks to her about the future, he eyes glaze over as he remembers the wreckage he found, the flames that surrounded the city, the lifeless bodies. Everything a thirteen year old boy shouldn't have witnessed.
As Five opens up to her about what he saw and how he felt, Vanya begins to look at him sceptically.

Cleaning off blood.. ✲ Five hargreeves x gn! reader.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Five hargreeves x gn! ex-partner-reader [warning; description of injury and pain.]
Oh my beloved readers, hasn't it just been an eternity off me promising to upload and then never uploading, whatever shall become off me. P.S, I'm shit at writing descriptions of first aid, kind of just going off whatever feels right in my head, this ain't gonna be the best considering its the first time I've written anything In about a year, but this mostly too ease me back into writing with something I've similarly done before. Enjoy.
Tumblr media
It was cold out, the snow that had set the day before had iced over, a cold breeze span itself in the air and when Five went to open the front door a chill ran down his spine and he shivered, not only because of the cold but because of who was standing in front of him.
If someone had asked five if he had ever expected to see you like this, droplets of crimson that looked speciously like blood, brown splotches of dirt and grey patches of ash stuck to your face, hair and clothes, He'd ask them what they were on and why they'd ever ask him such a question. Because he really didn't expect such a thing. But looking at you now, standing at the academy's doorstep with your hand soaked in blood and clutched to your abdomen, questions were sent ringing through his head, were you hurt, was it your blood, did whoever had hurt you follow you here? 
He didn't bother asking, he stayed silent. He took the hand that laid limply at your side, not on your stomach, and gently pulled you indoors. The academy was cold, colder then it'd been when you were there last and since Grace, Pogo and the rest of fives siblings were no longer around too upkeep the condition of the building, cobwebs made their appearance in far to reach corners.
Words remained unspoken until long after he got you too the top of the stairs, he ushered you into the bathroom, sat you on the edge of the bathtub, reached under the bathroom sink cupboard and pulled out the first-aid kit you'd used to fix him up on occasion. He did a once over of you, then the room was silent apart from his rummaging, hands reaching for the alcohol. His eyes met yours and he guided your forearm in front of him. There was a large cut you had forgotten was there, which when you finally noticed it, started to sting horribly. "This is gonna hurt, but the sooner its done the better." He said, before popping the lid off the bottle of alcohol and pouring it on your arm. You flinched away from him, yanked your arm back and he let go of your arm out of fear of hurting you more. "I've got to, you know I've got to. if I don't your gonna end up getting it infected and I think you'd rather have me deal with It now rather then when its more painful."
"I don't want you touching it at all." you spat back.
"if that was true you wouldn't have showed up on my doorstep." He stated, you stared at him, glared and then gave your arm back to him as he got out the needle and thread. "I won't demand to know what happened, its not my place after what I did but if you want to talk about it I'm here and I'm not going anywhere."
He made the first move to dig the needle into your skin.
Tumblr media
There you are, short and hopefully enough to fuel your obsession for a couple months, Hopefully it won't be that long until I write again, who am I kidding though, you'll probably scroll past this on the x reader tag looking for more only to notice that you've already read the one after this like I do.
Gonna write for rick Sanchez next because I'm a simp for old men.

Music in various languages
I've talked about how interacting with different cultures is good, I figure I'll also try to recommend some songs. (many songs beneath the cut). I'm going to include a couple different genres, but obviously I won't be including every.
I hit audio limit :/
Norwegian language (Norway):
[Pt: Du må ikke sove by klarspråk]. [album: du må ikke sove. shows a warped photo of Donald Trump on tv.] genre: rock / (punk?) / spoken word / social criticism. it's an antifascist song, quoting a famous illegal WWII poem by the same title "you mustn't sleep".
[PT: regn & gitar by Jomas] [album: evig kronisk. shows man looking at a garden holding a retro phone.] It's a more soft quiet song about waiting for someone in the rain.
(I could recommend many more Norwegian songs so don't feel afraid to ask if you're at all interested)
Sámi language (Norway / Sweden / Finland / Russia):
I don't have the necessary letters on my keyboard to write PT. But this is a Inari Sami song by Amoc. I don't speak that language. here are the lyrics on genius. here's a dictionary, not sure if it's the right Sámi language. The genre is like atmospheric rock or something, the instruments are amazing.
[PT: áddjá by resirkulert] [album cover: áddjá] translation: grandfather (Sámi) by recycled (Norwegian). genre: yoik/joik - a Sami Music genre which is mostly about vocal technique.
French language (France / Benin / Congo / Democratic republic of Congo / Monaco / Senegal / Switzerland / Belgium / Ivory coast ++)
[PT: Soleil noir by 47ter] [album: petit princes. Photo of three boys on stairs]. A rap song by a trio from France. It's about "a black sun" about liking the dark and rain and not liking summer.
[PT: Déprime hostile by Pogo crash control]. [album: Déprime hostile. Shows a digital drawing of a head cut open with a cocktail]. genre: punk / metal. The band is from France. The song is about hostile depression or something.
[PT: plus rien ne m'étonne by Tiken Jah Fakoly]. [album: coup de guele. It shows a face pointed towards the ceiling]. The artist is from Ivory coast (AKA côte d'ivoire). genre: Reggae. It's about colonialism.
[PT: formidable by stromae]. [album: racine carée. it shows the side of a man's face, he has short hair]. The artist is Belgian. Genre: hip hop. The song is about a breakup or something.
Scots Gaelic (UK: Scotland)
[PT: Faileas air an airidh by Runrig]. [album: 50 great songs]. genre: traditional folk. The song is about waking up on a ship or something.
German language (Germany / Belgium / Austria / Switzerland)
[PT: 99 Luftballons by Nena]. [album: Nena]. Genre: synth pop / pop rock. This is an antiwar song from 1983 about the cold war.
A last song even though I hit Audio limit:
Kunst by Lebanon Hanover. (link). It is a gothic rock song about art.

Ok ok ok time to talk about the show!!!!
(Warning this going to be beyond hectic I'm quite literally shaking with excitement and also it's 1 am)
Justin's floofy little hyena mohawk gives me LIFE it looks so good
Instead of the ukulele being tossed onto stage by someone below, the funeral director guy tosses it to Beej
After the sad puppet show BJ screams out "I'm burning! I'm burning! I thought this only happened to books that make kids gay!" And I literally gasped. I don't know if that was written into the script or if it was improv but holy shit
During TWBDT Part 2, when BJ tries to spell his name a second time, he pulls his sleeve back to read a little cheatsheet to spell it correctly. My illiterate little himbo ❤
Instead of "Sadness is like kale salad, no one likes it, throw it out" Delia says "Sadness is like a third nipple, it's a part of you but no one wants to see it"
During Charles and Lydia's dead mom argument, Delia is just waggling her triangle around and slow motion dancing. No thoughts, just vibes
When Charles and Delia are making out on the table, Charles is full on sniffing her foot and rubbing his face against it like a cat..... Chuck has a foot fetish confirmed.
Someone already posted about the guacamole story and jesus fucking christ man
When Barb gives her "best primal screams" she gives a very half hearted "blehhh" and then hits a fucking opera note on her second attempt?? I'm love ??
BJ'S MIC IS BEDAZZLED
It's also small enough to fit up his sleeve. Big spooky demon with this dinky tiny glittery microphone. I love it.
I swear to god in Charles' room there's this big ass sculpture that looks like a giant butt plug. I did an actual double take. I couldn't focus on anything else during that scene.
Except the fact that Delia had a juul pod im pretty sure?
After Say My Name, when the curtain drops, Adam is all like "We should bring the sheets" "No" "Well we should bring the sheets just in case" "Adam, no, come on!" "Ok I won't bring the sheets :("
After Beej is pushed off the roof a little puff of smoke is blown onto the stage like a cartoon
When Beej crawls out of the table when Lydia calls him there's this god awful squelching sound
After That Beautiful Sound, when BJ is explaining his plan to his clones, one of the women is stood there wiggling her fingers and popping her hips out and she's so cute!!
I never really cared about Otho but the man who played is a whole ass Shane Madej caricature and I kind of love him now
We unfortunately do not get red Beetlejuice, but for a split second the lights give him a similar effect and while it's not the same, I will take it. It's better than nothing I suppose
I love the yellow and blue suit on Justin he's so hampsome 🥺💞😭🥺💘😢💖💗😭
To fill in the awkward silence after the "we both have dead moms" joke, BJ fucking bounces on Juno's severed leg like a pogo stick????? It literally sucked the air out of my body and I had to force myself to breath so I didn't start wheezing and disrupting the whole auditorium
We got confetti'd after the curtain call and I grabbed 3 handfuls :) That's not really a note on the show, I just felt like sharing
Ok on to my feelings about the cast:
Justin:
Listen, no one can ever top Alex, but I'll be damned if Justin isn't a close second.
Just constantly screaming and doing his little dancy dance, even if it's during normal dialogue that does not call for screaming or dancy dancing.
Not much in the feral behavior department, but he sticks his tongue out so. much. A lot of sarcastic gasping too like sir close your mouth before bugs start crawling inside
He takes his sweet time finishing dialogue. There were several times where there would be a good 30 seconds of dead air, and every time the laughter died down it would start up and fill the silence again. I don't know what spell he cast to make the audience do that but it was a good one.
I'll be honest I wasn't so sure about him when the casting was announced but god damn it he just has so much charisma I want to get on all fours and bark for him
Im not taking that back btw you're gonna have to live with me saying that
Isabella:
My favorite Lydia hands down.
Her Lydia has so much attitude she's almost a bit of a bully. There's so much sarcasm and angst and anger in her delivery. She plays the moody teenage girl character well.
Not really an acting not but Isabella has such big, expressive eyes. Granted, I had pretty close seats, but you can still see her eye rolls and quirked eyebrows from the stage it's amazing.
Overall she's a fantastic Lydia and again, my absolute favorite. No shade to Sophie, but I feel like her Lydia was... a bit whiny and immature. Isabella is truly grieving her mother and you can see how much of a toll all these changes are having on her. I absolutely love the edge and the bite she brings to Lydia.
Britney and Will:
These two.
These two are out of fucking control for real.
Take the goof factor from the original Maitlands and crank that shit up to 11.
Gonna have to agree with Beetlejuice though, Will's Adam is quite sexy...
"Adam... You're boring. But! You're sexy. You should own that." *cue Will doing a full body roll*
I dont know if it's his height or voice or line delivery but he just seems a lot less... idk pathetic? than the original Adam. It's a nice change of pace. I always wished they did more to develop his character.
Britney brings a lot of spunk to Barbara. Like Barbara has always been the slightly more adventurous one in the relationship but Britney really makes her shine.
OG Barbara is a bit more subdued but Britney's body language is so big? I guess is the right word? So many big gestures and so much movement. Im always a big fan of when actors use their whole bodies to deliver their lines instead of just standing pin straight and talking.
Kate:
I've noticed a lot of people don't really like her Delia and while she isn't my number one favorite either, I still think she does a good job
OG Delia, I feel, is out of touch with the times and trying to be "hip" while still being old school. Kate's Delia is very much aware of "kids these days" and is an obnoxious try hard. I kind of like her take on the character in that sense.
Delia has absolutely no concept of personal space. She stands wayyyy to close to Lydia and whenever Lydia gets fed up, she gets in Delia's face to give her a taste of her own medicine. I LOVE the dynamic between them.
Also Kate's Delia is lowkey kind of bullied by Lydia? Like Lydia is actually pretty mean to her. Again, I love how Kate and Isabella interact with each other. There's a lot more turmoil and strain between these two that I feel was lacking in the original production (at least from what I've seen in the bootlegs I've watched).
Jesse:
Not as imposing or strict as OG Charles, but I like it. I don't prefer it, but I like it.
I feel like Jesse's Charles wears his heart on his sleeve? You can really hear how tired and lost and confused he is when he's struggling to communicate with Lydia.
I never cried while watching bootlegs but damn it, their performance of Home almost made me cry...
Also if anyone would like to drop me off at the theater tomorrow so I can snag those remaining $30 single seat tickets my address is-

part 2 of me talkin about the live a live ending. long ass post again. no formatting beyond paragraph spacing again.
continuing from masaru's, we're goin for sundown next. running from your problems like sundown did makes your life revolve around them. it's putting your entire focus on them. and it gets lonely. sundown's message isn't that deep to me, i'll be honest. not too much i can get from "yea i'm lonely too."
oboro's next. i get the feeling he's not just talking about murder and violence, here. it can extend to disregard of another person. isn't killing someone another form of disregarding them? maybe he's saying to consider others, even if they're considered "outsiders" to you.
hm. funny how the sentiments become less nuanced as i go backwards through the seven time periods. onto the three disciples.
yun's first in the game file order, so i'm goin with him first. oersted demanded too much out of himself, and it showed. i relate to that. i wanna save everyone. i want to help everyone in a meaningful way. but you can't, and it tends to make you miserable when you try to save everyone you see.
besides, if you try saving everyone, people pick up on it. they begin to expect you to save them, too. and when you fail, they won't always be understanding...
anyways. i don't like lei's message. it feels... wrong. "you can't always get what you want" falls flat when you realize what oersted wanted this entire time. it also feels like she's saying "sometimes your best isn't enough." not a comforting thing to say to someone in oersted's situation!
i agree with the striving for a better self, however. it's the best one can do. mistakes are inevitable. you've made them, i've made them, everyone's made them. and we will make more.
moving on to hong. it's just the usual "i was hurt, why should they?" stuff you see a lot from media nowadays. don't think that needs much explaining.
finally, pogo. he hugs oersted. that's a form of acceptance. and that's all oersted wanted this entire time. that's what a lot of people want.

I know everyone is screaming about Scara and rightfully so, but can we just talk about this little nugget from the 3.3 trailer for a second?
Daddy Pierro?
He won't be in it, but sweet baby bippie on a pogo stick, let me hear him. I will take all that Hoyo intends to give me of Fatui Daddy and enjoy it.
Also Dottore in this trailer *chefs kiss* He gets more sinister every time we hear him and I am in.

Didn't finish my predictions list before the trailer dropped because I thought they were gonna wait until after the Splatfest like usual.
But I made some afterward with the knowledge that the trailer gave and also got to check a few of my pre-trailer ones already!
A couple extra, moreso hopes than predictions but I'll throw them on my notes app real quick anyway after I post this: Please don't put Sprinkler on Stamper. Please make Reefslider better. Please have more gear in the shops.
And note about BigBalloon. My understanding is that we *thought* BigBalloon was Horrorboros, but Horrorboros apparently goes by a different internal name? So that'd mean BigBalloon is still unaccounted for as of right now.
I don't have the BigBalloon thing checked off just yet because I won't feel 100% certain that Megalodontia (Joe) is BigBalloon until the season comes out and dataminers confirm so. I'm confident that "Chimney" is Splattercolor Screen because it seems to match parameters and behaviors dataminers found a while back.
The internal names for stuff seem really tangential so Joe *could* be BigBalloon. The King that literally fills + throws giant Steelhead balloons is not BigBalloon??? But Joe could be, literally just because big + round.
Although I'm actually somewhat hoping Joe is *not* BigBalloon, because if BigBalloon is *still* unaccounted for in 6.0.0 then that might confirm at least one more King before EoL. He might not be, because I remember dataminers talking about BigBalloon using rails and I don't know how that'd work with Joe.
Unless of course Horrorboros *is* actually BigBalloon and whoever said he went by a different internal name lied and I'm stupid (I think it was literally a dataminer that said it though?). I'd be mad if so, because I've believed this ever since the Inkblot Big Run...
Anyway there's about 2 hours before SplatoonJP may post some other news but I'm going to bed now, just gonna throw my list in the readmore, just copypasted from my notes app with checkmark emojis added so y'all can see the currently checked off stuff easier.
[ ] New SR stage. [ ] ^ Ruins of Ark Polaris? [ ] ^ Lost Outpost? [  ] ^ New stage entirely? [  ] More SR suits. [  ] King Salmonid int name "BigBalloon" added. ✅ Special int name "Chimney" added. [  ] Special int name "Pogo" added. [  ] SR Underground mode added. [  ] Boss Salmonids int names "Balloon" "Ghost" "Wheel" added. [  ] ^ Underground exclusive bosses? [  ] ^ New Night Wave bosses? [  ] ^ Both? [  ] New kits for: Explosher ✅ ^ Splatana Stamper ✅ ^ REEF-LUX [  ] ^ Glooga Dualies [  ] ^ Hydra Splatling ✅ ^ Snipewriter [  ] ^ Bamboozler
(Trailer and snipewriter kit reveal already out before these next ones ⬇️) [  ] More surprise kits than just Snipewriter? [  ] At least 1 map rework [  ] Something gets Crab Tank finally [  ] ^ S Blast? [  ] ^ Stamper? [  ] ^ Painbrush? [  ] Something gets Booyah Bomb for 1st time in a year (literally the last ones were gold Aero and Forge Pro iirc) [  ] ^ Painbrush? [  ] ^ Splat Dualies? Weapons besides Undercover that get Splattercolor Screen: [  ] ^ REEF-LUX? [  ] ^ Painbrush? [  ] ^ Squeezer?

Reflections
Five approaches his brother slowly. "What's wrong, Viktor?"
"Nothing."
"I don't believe that."
"I don't…I don't like how they're talking about Harlan."
"Why? He's dangerous."
"Because they said the same things about me, Five! They locked me in a soundproof box in the basement, prepared to leave me there for who knows how long."
"They wouldn't do that, Viktor."
"They did, Five. And the only reason I don't worry about that happening now is that the box doesn't exist."
"You don't mean that."
"Oh, I do. What's the difference between then and now?"
"For one, time."
Viktor laughs. "What time, Five? Because to me, that was less than two weeks ago."
"You were in Dallas for months."
"With no memory. I only regained that less than a week ago, but the question stands. What's different now?"
"You're not being manipulated by Harold."
"It wasn't Leonard that made me blow up the world. It was you all. And nothing has happened since to make sure I don't do it again. Heck, I almost did it days ago by all our counts and took Ben out in the process."
"But you wouldn't, not by choice."
"Yeah well, hate to break it to you, I'm pretty sure I chose to the first time."
"So you learn control-"
"When? Dad trained you and the others for years. Years before the Academy had its first mission. Me? I've been aware of these powers for two weeks and I've had zero training sessions. I'm running on instinct and vague memories that started filtering through once I realized I was rumored. I haven't even been able to touch the telekinesis since-"
"Since what?"
"I'm not actually sure if I used it to pull down the Academy or if that was something else. Used it to kill Leonard though. Pogo as well. Haven't touched it since then. Or the weather. Or…or what dad had me do. And what Harlan did, Five? That's me too. I gave him my powers. Anything can he do, I can do too. Except Harlan hasn't almost destroyed the world twice so he's a better me."
"That's not true."
"It is. So yeah, I don't like how they're, you're, talking about Harlan. Because I have no guarantee I'm not next. We can't suppress my powers; Dad's drugs don't exist in this timeline."
"We're not saying to hand over Harlan because of what he can do. We're saying it because that's how we ensure cooperation from the Sparrows in saving what's left of the universe."
"And we need them for that? Absolutely need them?"
"We need access to the Kugelblitz."
"Klaus was able to sneak in and see it. I'm sure you can too. Giving up Harlan is the easy option. Just like Luther locking me in that chamber was." Viktor runs his hand over his head. "At the very least, Harlan is one of us. Like Lila is. Someone with powers, and just as much experience using his are you are yours. We might need him to stop this."
Five hums in the back of his throat.
"Whatever. I'm not going to assume that what I says matter. You'll get rid of him, because you don't know what to do with him. Just like you don't know what to do with me."
He turns to walk away, but Five grabs his wrist. "Viktor. I promise, we won't."
"You can't do that, Five. Just cuz you love me doesn't mean you won't hurt me." Viktor lights up. "I'm done talking. I suggest you let go."
Five releases his grip, and Viktor marches off.

i cannot begin to untangle all of what is going on, having come to this game so late, but. 1) there is no chat or socialization available within Pokemon Go itself, for myriad reasons but among them the simple one that any app that lets people talk to one another is going to have issues with needing moderators or some kind of abuse policy fairly directly. PoGo has the added complication of course that Pokemon is a thing kids are into, and ALSO the compounding factor that it's based on geographic area; one can only imagine the complications that arise from an app that is used by so many children, and has as a basic feature of gameplay a pretty basic guarantee that players reveal with a fair amount of precision exactly where they live, having any kind of chat function.
but 2) you need to coordinate with other users in order to win raids or trade creatures, two fairly important components of how the game is played.
This has meant of course that third-party apps and sites have become the primary method of organizing raid crews. I personally lucked out and found a reasonably active local Discord server; there's apparently also a local Facebook group. There are also entire apps one can use that pair with the Pokemon Go app itself and let you arrange things with other users-- there are a lot of supplemental apps that go along with PoGo, for many reasons and purposes, and I have rather deliberately avoided finding out about any of them because that way madness lies and also my undiagnosed, unmedicated ADHD ass could not handle that.
Niantic has themselves made an app, however. Campfire, which is meant to sort of overlay Pokemon Go and also some of their other games. There are limited chat and interactivity features in Campfire. I managed to get an invite to it, but it has not proven to be super useful, largely because it was such a limited roll-out that there were no active groups really posting or chatting. I don't really know how to use it, but the main thing I enjoy is that you can scroll around within the map to look at other areas, and it shows every gym. (It doesn't show stops, which would also be useful, but I get why it doesn't.) It shows you what gyms have eggs on them, and you can see what rating the eggs are, and you can see when they hatch and what creature they hatch. So that's cool.
I have manually scrolled myself 300 miles east to see the map around the farm and have confirmed it's pretty dire LOL. Not a lot going on there. But the city's only 20 minutes away.
Anyway they seem to be rolling out access to Campfire to more users, to coincide with the ongoing nerf of remote passes, so here's hoping that turns out to be, idk, some kind of usable feature?
I just-- like, man, I don't know, I don't want to have to meet up with strangers in person every time I want to do a raid, you know?? Eesh. Raids are fun but not fun enough to put my life in my hands every time. It's fraught when you're not in a big city, the idea of meeting up with people-- at least it's spring, it won't be in the dark anymore. Anyway. I'll stop speculating and fretting and just simply express my hope that this turns out to be a usable way of continuing to play the game.

Five and Ben had seen Vanya much more distracted lately, rather strange, since Vanya was usually very focused on her violin and usually on their discussions about missions or even unimportant ones. Ben was somewhat pleased that Vanya was more distracted by what was being said because with the distraction she didn't seem to care about all the evils and marginalities around her on the other hand Five was suspicious so she thought of following her.
Five I think you're exaggerating * said Ben one day after training after Five told him the plan * plus after all it can be a good thing
how can this be a good thing?think, if she spends her time with something other than playing the violin mother and father sees that she is not doing her best, he can take her violin! * said Five worriedly *
I don't think he would do that ... right? * said Ben now worried *
we know dad .... all we have to do is just keep an eye on her I don't think it will be so hard if I perfect my jumps in time * said Five decidedly *
it's going to be a little hard for us because of training and spontaneous missions ... we won't always be here ... * said Ben climbing the stairs with Five *
yes .. well punctuated .... * said Five thoughtfully *
maybe Pogo knows something * said Ben hopefully in his voice *
no, we don't have to involve anyone in this if Vanya managed to contact with someone outside she will have problems * said Five *
Don't forget the cameras, I don't think Vanya managed to make contact with anyone outside without dad knowing * Ben said and then Five's eyes shone *
Ben you are a genius! ok let's listen how are we going to do * he approaches him and whispers something in his ear * do you understand?
* Ben just nodded yes *
well then see you later * said Five going to his room *
after extinguishing time Five was lying in bed on his back with a grin staring at the ceiling.
there was a scream from outside, and then he knew it was the right time to act. When he made sure that the voice of his mother, Pogo, and the brothers who were crowding around to see what had happened to Ben, Five teleported to the little room where all the monitors were on all the cameras in the house. Five had find that room a few years ago while helping with spring cleaning.
Five scrolled through the rooms a few days ago when Vanya's importation changed so radically, but all she could see was her talking to a 14-15-year-old boy who held a box in his hands. He tried to scroll to see if she had ever seen that boy again, but nothing. Just then Five heard a door open and he teleported back to his room. He should have known more about that boy, but first he had gone to see if Ben was okay. All the crowd that had been earlier dissipated as if it had never existed and Five knocked on the door and entered. When he entered, it was Ben sitting and talking to Vanya.
Hi Five * said Vanya with a smile *
Hey Vanya * smiled at her * what were you talking about? Did I interrupt something?
oh no, of course not , Ben was telling me how he managed to cut himself into a tentacle
oh * Five put on a worried face * now are you good buddy?
Yes, my mother and Vanya helped me with the wound
Wonderful, what would we do without you Vanya? * said Five jokingly *
you would probably learn to bind your wounds yourself like big boys you are * said Vanya and then leave the room before any of them can say anything *
Well, she sure knows how to get out * said Ben *
leave this * closed Five door *
I discovered exactly what I was afraid I would find out
Did you see Luther in the shower? * asked Ben *
What? No! you freak, Vanya met a boy! that's-
great! * Ben said excitedly *
Terrible! * Five said desperately *
* they said once *
Come on Man! let her be happy once in her life! * said Ben relaxed *
* Five felt Ben explode not seeing the gravity of the situation so he had put on a forced smile *
yes you're absolutely right now if you'll excuse me I'm going to cut off my ears pretending I didn't hear that * Five jumps up and disappears into his room *
Five didn't understand how Ben didn't understand the gravity of the situation and Ben didn't understand why Five was so upset but they both ended the topic by talking about it. Meanwhile, Five also investigated about this boy who kept Vanya distracted, he started not being so attentive to training and that cost him a bit ...
ONE MONTH! MUST IS HAVE TO WASH THE DISHES FOR A MONTH! just because Diego was going to hit me with knives! * said Five, slumping on the bed with Vanya and Ben next to him *
You WAS distracted , think what would have happened on a real mission * said Ben *
yes, Ben is right * said Vanya *
I'm not distracted! * Five screams *
yes you totally are buddy * said Ben *
yes, sure, whatever* said Five got up from the bed *
Ben motioned to Vanya and then Ben's tentacles almost caught Five behind him but he disappeared behind him and immobilized him.
See? nothing to worry about * said Five letting go of Ban *
if that's the way it is in training tomorrow, I think dad it's going to forget You * said Ben, returning to normal *
Oh no, my training! * Vanya shouts * see you later * she runs and slams the door by mistake behind her *
I told you completely distracted * said Five to Ben *
"She's not the only one distracted," Ben said, and Five looked at him angrily. "Does that boy still worry you?"
what? no, ofc not- * the alarm sounds and they knew it was time for a mission *
good because we have to go * said Ben *
Before he got in the limousine to leave, he saw Vanya talking to the boy again before the limousine left.
Dad, isn't Vanya coming? * ask Five *
Of course not, she has to repeat, where with all this nonsense, number 5?
nothing .. * Five walks over to Ben and whispers to them *
Is he again !
Five focused * Ben said softly *
Yes Five CONCENTRATE! * said Klaus * to what?
It's none of your business, drug addict * said Five sharp *
Five! * Allison shouts *
WHAT'S wrong with You? * Luther asked *
It's not your problem * said Five *
maybe it's because of the boy who keeps coming to the academy * said Klaus *
Who's that boy, Dad? * Allison asked *
he's the son of a friend, now you're done with the nonsense and concentrating on the mission! * said Sir Regginald very nervously *
huh who would have thought that old man has friends * said to himself Five *
The mission was a success only because Five was the most injured of them all. They arrived at the academy and Grace was in a hurry to bandage them and Vanya, as usual, helped their mother with this.
Ouch! Be careful with that bandage before I get a knife * Diego threatens Vanya *
I'm sorry Diego but the wound is pretty big and I think that it must be sewn * said Vanya as she tried to stop the bleeding *
then bring someone capable of this I will not trust you to sew me at least you know how to sew? * said Diego sharply *
hey asholle at least she's trying you just sit back and order why don't you sew yourself?
in the doorway stood a boy with beautiful long hair arranged with blue eyes and in the uniform of acedemia
how the hell are you? prince charming? * Diego said mockingly but just then Grace entered the door with Five who had many cuts and was full of blood *
Vanya, I need your help to sew it * said Grace *
Okay mom * said Vanya as Grace put Five on a stretcher and Vanya took out everything they needed *
but mother, I need to be sewn too * said Diego *
can sew you Jayme, darling * said Grace gently *
What the hell is he doing here? * asked Five *
I'm going to tell you later * said Vanya *
Later before dinner, Sir Regginald gathered them all for an announcement
Children, today a new brother has joined you, meet the number 8 Aka Jayme. His power is to control water in any form. He will not be a permanent member of the academy.Now, sit down.
Jayme took a seat next to Vanya on the left.
that's my place * said Five sharp *
ups my mistake * said Jayme with an innocent face *
do we have any problem no. 5? * said Sir Regginald *
yes, he sat down in my place * said Five cold *
you can sit in my place * said Vanya * I'm not too hungry anyway
Vanya You don't have too- * said Five but had been interrupted by their father's voice *
perfect, it was solved then, number 7 you can go to your room
Vanya just nodded and left. Five couldn't eat much, he felt guilty plus Ben's eyes frustrated him more. After the meal was over, he decided to take revenge because he knew Vanya was probably starving and the thought that she would have to eat alone again at that empty and sad table made him worse.
So after everyone went to the bedrooms, Five teleported to the donut across the street and took a donut of raspberries and chocolate, then teleported to Vanya's room, who was playing the violin at the time. Vanya was so frightened that she dropped the violin but Five had managed to catch her.
Five! for God's sake, knock on the door next time! * said Vanya still in shock *
if I did that I risked being seen and I couldn't bring you that * took the donut out of the bag *
aww Thanks Five! * comes to him to give him a hug but Five stops her *
Look, I just felt guilty, okay? you didn't have to starve because of a stupid place to eat, anyway mom could bring another chair it wasn't a problem * said Five calm *
Thanks Five but you didn't have to, I sewed your wounds a few hours ago, you didn't have to move too much * said Vanya worriedly *
I suffered even worse * said Five with a smile *
let me see * said Vanya in a tone annoyed by Five's smile and worried about his wounds *
I'm fine, seriously * said Five confidently *
then why are You bleeding? * said Vanya looking at his arm *
a fuck * said Five * I can sew myself, you eat until you faint
I'm fine! let me see your arm * said Vanya horribly approaching Five * take off your plover and shirt so I can see your wound
what? no, I'm fine just show me where the needle and thread are and sew me * said Five looking for the needle and thread * btw do you know that boy?
Jayme? yes I met him a few days ago he had come with a package for my father and since mom and Pogo were with you I went to get the package. Nice to talk to him and I found out we have a lot in common * Vanya gave Five's needle and thread * and even told me that his father owns a music company and told me he would like to hear me I sing and I accepted, do you realize?
Yes, congratulations I'm glad for you * said Five with a smile as he opened his shirt *
sure you don't want me to help you? * said Vanya *
yes bring a patch * said Five *
Five was getting ready to insert the needle but Vanya stopped it *
Wait! it must be disinfected first * said Vanya, snatching the needle from her hand * until I return I'll tie you up so you don't bleed again * said Vanya and sat down next to him on the bed *
it's going to hurt a little * said Vanya tightening the bandages on the wound *
unlike Diego, I appreciate you doing this for us, for me without anyone asking you for it, that really means caring * said Five with a smile *
what can i say I do my best * said Vanya with a smile *
that should hold something, I'm going to bring some disinfectant don't move from here if you don't want it to get worse, you understand?
yes, but after you eat well? * said Five *
yes, I promise * said Vanya and left the room *
in the living room she had seen Jayme with the others having fun she wanted to greet him but her experience had once again taught her to be silent so she passed quietly through the living room but Jayme noticed her and greeted her
hey Vanya! do you want to join us * Jayme asked with a smile *
um .. * Vanya looked at everyone else staring at her then at Jayme and said *sorry I can't now maybe later?
Ok later, I'd love to hear your interpretations if you don't mind * Jayme said a little shyly *
No, no ofc not, I'd like that * Vanya said with a smile and left *
When she returned, Five was lying in bed still bleeding
Five! I managed to find everything we needed * Five hadn't said anything * it's not the kind of jokes raised * Five hadn't done anything * Five! FIVEEEE! * she had begun to shake him *
FIVE IS NOT FUNNY WAKE UP! Wake up! I think he fainted, she told herself
ok ok the one my mother taught in case of fainting? um..water, cold water Yes that must be! * run to Jayme who was still in the living room *
Jayme! I need your help ! * Vanya shouted and looked at her *
What happened? * said Jayme panicked *
just come with me I need water and you're the right boy * said Vanya *
I'm behind you * said Jayme preparing some water *
they all ran to Vanya's room, finding Five still unconscious on Vanya's bed, having nothing on him from the waist up with the wounds on his chest and thighs in plain sight.
what happened? * Ben asked behind them *
he lost blood and fainted now throws water on him that's rule 1 in fainting
Jayme threw water at him but didn't wake up.
now what? * Scream Jayme *
Vanya approached Five to see if he was still breathing, she hadn't felt anything so she had taken his pulse but she didn't feel anything.
Oh no ... * said Vanya *
What happened?! * screams Ben panicked *
NO PULSE * shouts Vanya * bring mom ,Jayme, Ben you help me with him * said Vanya *
Jayme goes after Grace
he needs mouth-to-mouth breathing! * said Ben * Ok you breathe, I pulse
ok * said Vanya gave him a mouth-to-mouth breath as Ben throbbed *
Five breathes and coughs at the same time
Five! you are alive! * said Vanya taking him in her arms *
what are you doing? * said Five confused *
it's called a hug * Vanya said, squeezing harder *
Vanya I can't breathe * said Five *
sorry * let him go *
I brought Grace! * Jayme shouted *
Grace, after checking on Five, congratulated them on their actions and then told them to let him rest.
I hope it's okay ... * Vanya crouched by her door with Ben and Jayme by her side.
You're kidding? we're talking about the killing machine number 5 went through worse * said Ben trying to calm her down * while we waited you can go eat something I think you're hungry
yes ..a little ... * said Vanya remembering the donut brought by Five * come back immediately * had opened the door and both boys fell on their backs *
shhh! * she hissed *
She had gone to get Five's donut on the desk and turned to the door, but before she left she heard Five muttering something in his sleep.
maybe he has a nightmare * she thought *
Vanya ... * Five muttered still asleep *
I think he has a nightmare about me * she told herself and left the room *
I didn't see you go out when you went to get your donut * said Jayme *
Oh no, Five went to pick me up and apologized for dinner * Vanya clarified *
oh well I'm sorry too for dinner It was my fault * said Jayme * I'll apologize to Five when he feels better.
* there was a moment of silence when everyone seemed to fall into thoughts but Jayme asks *
where will you sleep if he sleeps in your room?
I don't know, probably in the kitchen, or in the attic, it's a beautiful view from there, usually Allison and I hid there when we were younger *
seriously? you never told us anything about it * said Ben *
it happened a long time ago but there were some beautiful moments * said Vanya *
but it seems absurd to me! to sleep in the attic? or in the kitchen! you can sleep in my room at night and I can sleep in Five's room * said Jayme *
no, she can sleep in my room and I in Five's room after all, you're a guest, aren't you? * said Ben * insist
ok then it's fine with me * said jayme *
yeah me too * said Ben *
thanks guys but no need I'll sleep in the attic but Five's room stays closed ok? * before one of the boys says something the clock strikes 10 o'clock and she continues * well I see it's bedtime good night * said Vanya and went downstairs *
Wait! * Said Ben behind her * didn't you forget something? * Vanya turned and saw in Ben arm her pajamas *
thanks Ben! * she said hugging him *
"Good night," said Vanya, descending the stairs with her pajamas in her hands.
It took Vanya some time to find an old, dusty mattress, which was better than sitting on the cold floor. It was a cool summer evening in early June. Vanya was sitting on the dusty mattress but couldn't sleep, so she sat at the window. The view was always quiet with all the lights shining in that black, the stars and the moon shining brightly was such a soothing landscape that she fell asleep imperceptibly. When she woke up she realized that it was afternoon, the sun was shining high and she was wrapped in a fluffy duvet. How tired she had been to change into pajamas. She was still so asleep that she was about to fall out of the window.
When she came down from the attic after placing the mattress with the duvet next to her, she was surprised not to see anyone when she had come down the stairs * they would probably be in misinue * she thought, and then she remembered... Five. She hurried down the stairs and then up the stairs to her room again. She didn't know whether to knock on the door or not, but she mustered up the courage to knock. Seeing that no one had answered, she entered. The room was empty, everything was so seated that there didn't seem to be anyone in that room.
did she imagine? was it all in her head? everything
all she could do was knock on Five's door to see if he was there. Vanya took courage and knocked and this time she heard an intro but it was not Five but Grace who was cleaning.
Good morning dear! I'll give you your lunch right away * Grace said, still arranging the bed *
Mom, where's Five? * Vanya asked worriedly *
on a mission of course! this morning he felt extremely well and was able to go on a mission
but his wounds?
the system didn't tell me anything
oh .. * Vanya turned and went downstairs to her room and set the blanket aside and lay down on the bed. Her sweet, soft bed that now smelled ... of blood and Five
ew * Vanya whimpered and stood up. When she got up in Vanya's hair something had caught, it was a piece of paper that said something
hi I'm sorry you had to sleep in the attic and for the blood left on the bedding and I fainted in your room, but thank you for being there for me and I hope the blanket I brought you didn't was too thin, anyway... see you after you wake up , I think
signed:Five
so it was him..I wonder how he knew ... * Vanya thought *
just then she heard them coming and Vanya quickly went downstairs and saw them all full of blood but Five was full AGAIN
Five saw her and shouted:
It's not my blood it's ok! * shouts with a smile *
* Vanya came running towards him and threw herself into a hug that was about to tear Five down *
thanks * whispered Vanya still squeezing hard on Five *
Vanya what are You doing?*said Five*
It's called a hug *Say Vanya*
Vanya You will be full of blood after, you know how long it takes to clean blood * said Five *
yes ... sorry * Vanya takes a few steps back and sees her brothers staring at her *
I'm glad you're all well! * said Vanya embarrassed * where is Jayme?
he's not with us he stayed here * said Allison *
but ..I didn't see him around .. * said Vanya *
What's with this noise? * Jayme goes downstairs in a robe looking like he just woke up * Omg what happened to you? with your uniforms ?! let me help you * he said and with just a flick of his finger all the blood on them had gone in a bubble as big as a drop of water after it just exploded and disappeared into the air *
what the - * was about to say Five but had been interrupted by Diego *
can you control the blood?!
I can control water in any form * he said relaxed *
cool * said Vanya in astonishment *
children come to the salon I have an ad * said Sir Reginald *
as you well know Vanya is very talented and Jayme's father is a music director so Vanya will go with Jayme and his father so I can make a career and we will have a parting party. The party will take place tomorrow between 17:00 and 21:00, don't be late, now Sit down.
Everyone was shocked, especially Vanya Ben and Five who were left with their mouths open.
It's 3Am and we still talk about it * said Vanya dozing in bed leaning against the wall *
because there's something strange about dad and that boy * said Five, leaning back in his chair at Vanya's desk *
for the first time I think Five is right * said Ben sitting on the bed next to Vanya *
or maybe not - * said Vanya but had been interrupted by Five *
only this time?! * said Five angrily *
as I was saying * Vanya ignores him and continues * I don't think Jayme is a bad guy, I mean with those blue eyes and-
that long hair, yes yes this is the third time you tell us * said Five irritated *
what? he is a cute guy * said Vanya very asleep *
I don't know what dad would want to gain from this * said Five completely ignoring her *
he wouldn't have much * said Ben still lying in bed *
that's why I realized GENIUS * Five screams and Vanya winced *
Five! * said Vanya angrily *
sorry, sorry but I really don't probably realize just to keep you away from us ....
I've been ignored by my family all my life and frustrated when I can get rid of it. Do you want me to stay? that can mean something huge to me * said Vanya firmly *
do you want to go too * Five asked in a sad tone *
I don't know .... but I'm tired of feeling like a stranger among my so-called brothers * Vanya said bitterly * this could be a new beginning for me
she's right * said Ben * she's been suffering for many years even though she had us she deserves to be happy and i agree to leave if that means best to her
thank you Ben * said Vanya with a smile *
I want you to be happy ok? * said Five * but that doesn't mean you have to risk your safety for a blind dream
blind? Do you think that I would not be able to play the violin? * Vanya lit up *
No, that's not what I meant! * said Five but Vanya continues *
for my safety? maybe I don't have powers like you but that doesn't mean I'm unable to protect myself! * said Vanya angrily *
ok CALM DOWN ! * said Ben getting up from Vanya's bed * it's late and we've been debating this for at least 4 hours, can we all talk to each other more calmly tomorrow?
yeah whatever you say guru calm * said Five rolling his eyes * but if you get hurt don't come back *he turned to Vanya *
and what should that mean? * said Vanya angrily *
that you fell in love with a possible murderer! * said Five *
yeah maybe I do and I like it * said Vanya confidently *
I mean .. I think they would make a nice couple * said Ben *
one more! * spue Five *
I mean you are a murderer too I don't see a different * spuse Vanya *
how dare you ?!
that's enough! * said Ben*let her be happy! and we can go to bed NOW?!
the morning rays entered Vanya's room through the window, the 3 had huge circles
if he hurts you don't come to me * said Five *
fine * said Vanya with a smile *
Five wanted to say something more, but Ben motioned for her not to leave her alone. Five teleports Ben to his room and after Ben tells him
You are an idiot!
What ?! NO I'M NOT * said Five *
we both know how it will end you can't leave her* said Ben *
don't forget the kiss
kiss?! what kiss?
in fact, it wasn't a kiss ...
is she kissed me ?! Why?
when you were unconscious ...
She kissed me when I was unconscious ?!
in fact no ... it was a mouth-to-mouth breath because you didn't have a pulse anymore * Ben clarifies *
oh, YOU SCARED ME IDIOT!
why? I mean, it looked more like a kiss ...
WE ARE SIBLINGS
not blood
YOU'RE INCREDIBLE ! * said Five Nervous *
I know ! now we have to go to bed at least a few more hours * said Ben *
see you later * said Five and teleports straight back to his bed *
he couldn't sleep thinking about that Kiss , She really Kiss him?
nor could Vanya fall asleep too long wondering if all the things Five had said were true, and then remember..She Kiss her Brother ...
That morning there was tension between Vanya and Five and Ben had seen that. Throughout the morning Vanya She couldn't look Five in the eye, so whenever Five wanted to say something to her, she simply turned her head down or avoided him . That day the house was a mess, everyone was getting ready for this party but despite her siblings, Vanya had done nothing special that day but to rehearse on the violin and Jayme, who could not wait to hear her, offered to listen to her.
so? how was it? * asked Vanya after she had finished singing *
very good! only you should work a little more on the technique and relax more. * said Jayme with a smile *
Yes ... everyone tells me I'm stressed these days
do you have a specific reason? * Jayme asked curiously *
No, no, of course not, I don't know why everyone says that .... * said Vanya *
I'm glad you'll come with us, it's a shame if you wasted your talent, my father told me...um... he wants a show tonight, would You mind ?
this evening? but .... I didn't repeat enough and my hair won't look good either ... plus I don't have any dress I was going to not go to * said Vanya panicked *
it's a party in your honor! plus I take care of the dress and your hair always looks good only * he put the bangs on her ear * you look more beautiful when your face is visible. And don't worry, you're already very good with the violin and Dad will get the best teachers to train you in New York.
New York ?! * said Vanya in shock *
yes, and now come with me, I have a surprise * said Jayme and took her hand and pulled her after him* when the two left room Five he appeared and collided with them.
God, do you always do that? * Jayme asked *
no, just with idiots * grin Five
Five! * Vanya screams angrily from behind Jayme still holding her hand *
a, Vanya! I was looking for you, I need your help
right now? * Jayme asked subtly *
yes, RIGHT NOW * said Five with a forced smile *
yeah ... sure not a problem * said Vanya with her head on the ground *
perfect! come on * said Five and took her free hand *
see ya! * and she and Five disappeared *
Five, it wasn't nice of you! * said Vanya indignantly but still looking down *
come on you know this guy it's an idiot! * said Five, letting go of Vanya's hand *
No it's not! why are we in the attic? * Vanya asked curiously *
I want to ask you an opinion * said Five and went to something covered *
on no, don't say you killed someone .... * said Vanya scared looking at the covered thing *
in fact * Five put the sheet aside and under it was a stack of dresses of different colors * which do you think would suit you? * said Five, smiling at her *
Omg Five! you shouldn't have done this for me! * said Vanya and took him in her arms * thank you!
that's all I could do after the argument this morning * said Five and for the first time he hugged her too *
yeah..I'm sorry too * said Vanya *
You know I want you to be happy * said Five still hugging her *
I know thank you brother * said Vanya squeezing harder *
with .... pleasure * said Five without air * ok ready with so many hugs * teleports Five next to her * come on, let's see what you're wearing tonight * said Five * these dresses are from the biggest designs and plus not yet have appeared on the market so you will be the center of attention
oh wow * said Vanya * wait ... does that mean you stole? AGAIN? * said Vanya indignantly *
it's for a noble cause * said Five with a smile *
* Vanya tried on some dresses and asked Five for her opinion. After almost an hour of trying, they both agreed on a red dress from GG. With Vanya's white skin and long brown hair on her back and long bangs, she fit perfectly.
after all I don't have such bad tastes * said Five proudly *
yes it seems * Vanya smiled *
* there was a silence in the grave, no one knew what to say *
Well, I think I'll see you at the party * said Vanya, leaving *
Wait! * said Five * you shouldn't hide your face behind a bangs * he grabs her bangs to one side and now her milk-white face was visible * see? now it's perfect * said Five with a smile *
oh um thank you Five but it's ok I feel more comfortable like that * said Vanya giving out her clema *
no, at least keep her, you'll have something to remind me of * said Five, taking her hand and they both teleported to her room *
see you at the party * said Five disappearing before Vanya said anything *
At 5 o'clock the house was filled with the kind of people, rich, rich a little orchestra in a corner.
when Five came down and Ben had seen their brothers dressed nicely in suits and gone to them.
All this charade and for what? I'm glad we'll finally get rid of her * said Diego *
She's still your sister, you idiot! * said Luther *
look now who likes her now * submissive Diego * you don't even talk to her
but she is still our sister * said Luther *
Say something bad about Vanya and I'll kill you both *said Five *
calm down buddy, why are you so upset? * asks Ben *
I'm not, I just want tonight to be special if she leaves I want her not to forget tonight * said Five looking for Vanya * where is Vanya?
I don't know, I came down with you * said Ben *
It hasn't come down yet, OBVIOUS * said Diego *
but she does it now * said Allison *
everyone is looking at her, and her beautiful red dress. When she went downstairs, Jayme was waiting for her to take her to a first dance (1800 vibe , what can say, but Reggie liked traditional parties). Vanya looked excited and a little red at the same time but shook his hand and they both began to waltz. It was easy for Vanya to dance because of the lessons with Pogo and her mother.
Who knew Vanya knew how to dance a waltz * said Luther surprised *
They look adorable anyway, UUUUUU but someone looks angry * said Klaus, pointing to Five, who looked like a tomato*
Clearly, Five seems to have caught fire * Ben whispered to Klaus*
how can anyone like him * said Five coming to Ben *
Looks like she can * said Ben pointing to Vanya *
don't turn the knife on the wound * said Five watching them dance *
someone is jealous * said Klaus *
don't be ridiculous, she's my sister * said Five *
then why do you mind? * asked Ben *
Because HE IS A PLAYER! * said Five angrily *
anyway, she won't be here tomorrow * said Ben *
that's what we'll see .. * said Five to himself *
After the dance, Vanya wanted to come to her brothers, but a group of girls stopped her
I'm going for a drink * said Five going to a table with aperitifs and juices *
It's not good at the table that Klaus was following him. He seemed to be looking for something, so Five asked him
what are you looking for?
Wine, I had seen a bottle around here earlier * said Klaus, still looking for wine *
I think that bottle has already been given to my father's guests * said Five *
That's when Jayme comes to the table
are there any more salmon appetizers around here?
Jayme! my blood brother; what the- * said Five for himself * did you see the wine somewhere?
um yes i know dad had the last bottle * said Jayme over a salmon appetizer *
idiots * thought Five lets go but heard something *
so you have a boyfriend * asked a girl around Vanya *
me? * looked at the confused girl then looked around and saw Five and Jayme looking at her * yes six fheet , tall and super strong, we always get along
is anyone from the academy? * asked another girl *
no, but you don't want to talk about scores well? * said Vanya*
did you know about that? * asks Klaus *
we will find out * said Five and he goes to Vanya *
what is he going to do * said Jayme *
nobody knows, Five is full of surprises * said Klaus *
Five approaches Vanya and all the girls around Vanya started swarming around him
hey Number Five do you want to dance with me? * asked a black girl with curly black hair with brown eyes and a blue dress *
and me, I want to know you more * said a blonde with blue eyes *
maybe later * said Five *do you want to dance with me? *Five asked Vanya *
thanks but i don't want to dance i don't want your hands around me, what is going to my boyfriend say?* Vanya said, winking at him*
Too bad the song has already started * said Five and takes her hand and walks to the dance floor *
thank you for getting me out of there it was starting to get annoying * said Vanya dancing with Five *
this happens when you have a lot of fans, at some point it overwhelms you * said Five * I see you're still wearing that clema
yes, and i'll never take it down, you just don't want me to forget what a wonderful brother I have
* said Vanya with a smile *
Well, I didn't expect that ... * said Klaus * but they're fine, don't you think?
* Jayme just left the table angrily *
uuuuu * said Klaus and goes to his brothers *
yo what's up?
who knew Five could dance * said Luther *
show off * add Diego *
love floats in the air * said Klaus *
they are brothers, idiot * said Diego *
idk Luther and Allison have liked each other since they were 7 * said Klaus *
it's not true * said Luther a little red *
I'm going to get some water*Say Allison Red*
So ... your boyfriend, right? * said Five trying to tease her *
oh no, not with that, it was the most pathetic excuse, I know * said Vanya laughing *
I mean 6 feet, tall and super strong you described Luther * laughs Five * you just had to say he's blonde with brown eyes and you made Allison jealous * continue Five to laugh *
oh yeah, your right * said Vanya laughing *
what's his name? * Five continues to tease her *
the music stopped and Five let her go
Looks like you're not going to find out after all * said Vanya to tease him*
all evening she had been more or less quiet because those girls were following Vanya and Five. At one point, in order to get rid of them, Five wanted to hide in a closet, but he found Klaus with a bottle of whiskey in his hand.
Looks like you've finally found the wine * said Five and slammed the closet door and then someone collided with him *
a, Five you were * said Vanya scared *
and you wanted to hide in the closet?
Yes..
Klaus is there * said Five *
you know what? I'm sick of it * Vanya said angrily * we have to give them what they want
you mean....?
well ... they know you're available and they ask me what my boyfriend's name is so ... you miraculously make a girlfriend and I make a boyfriend like them want to see him
that's what we're going to need Ben .... * said Five thoughtfully *
or Jayme, I can say that he is-
I don't think ... I mean you don't like him, it wouldn't make sense
yes, I like him * said Vanya *
shit ... Stay still! don't move, plz I have an idea * said Five as he took Vanya's face very close to his looking like he wanted to kiss her and then whispered * stay still, don't move
Behind them were some girls shouting at Five, and when they saw them, the girls burst into tears and left.
phew , We did It ! * said Five happily not realizing that he was still holding Vanya's face *
um Five? * said Vanya quite red *
sorry * said Five and let her go *
then Jayme comes to them
Vanya, the show, Dad wants it now * Jayme said a little panicked *
NOW?! * said Vanya in shock * but ... my violin and-
solved * said Five with her violin in her hand *
oh, thanks Five * said Vanya *
Vanya takes the violin, goes ahead and starts playing. Everyone froze, now all eyes were on her, the pleasant sweet sound of her violin enveloping the room.
wow ... it's really pure talent ... * said Jayme *
yes..it is * said Five * so where did you say you wanted to take her?
in New York my father knows many very good musicians and teachers,she could be the next star * said Jayme still enchanted by the violin *
New York?! * exclaims Five *
why does everyone have this reaction? * Jayme asks confused *
where will she live? * asked Five *
at my father's villa, of course, 5 rooms 2 bathrooms a swimming pool and he will go to the best school, even my father said that he agrees to come and visit her
I don't think that's going to happen, but Ben and I will come * said Five *
then you are welcome * said Jayme with a smile *
* Five smiled too and pulled over to Ben *
can we talk? * Five asked *
I'm listening to you * said Ben *
we have to go with Vanya to make sure she's okay
Five, trust her, she's going to be FINE
but how do you know? she has no power, and that maniac in the corner can control blood, which means he can control people, plus you said I am right * said Five angrily *
look, I was tired and this maniac you keep talking about does charity work, yes I found out you're not the only one * said Ben irritated *
TOTALLY EVIL! * Five erupted *
uhu SURE, I won't help you because I know you're up to something, I trust her * said Ben *
idiot * murmurs Five and leaves *

And what if it was men putting women down for no reason? Not meaning to insinuate you are, but it just seems you’re against women
How do you say you don't mean to insinuate but then you say it out loud that I'm against women? 😐 Point me in the direction where I said that. Did I say that men don't abuse women? Did I say anywhere that men are gods and are the most innocent creatures that has never oppressed women like ever. But I open YouTube and there's always that one 14 year old girl who should be watching pogo channel but is busy making ten things I hate about men videos, their whole personality is I hate men and it's sad. It gets funnier when there's a father involved in the family, when they clearly have brothers who are nice and kind people, when you say all men, it includes your family and friends.
Tumblr media
First of all I don't think you h8 these conversations because you wouldn't be here making baseless assumptions if you actually did. You're really out here answering your own questions. MOST is not ALL men, it's the generalisation and demonisation of a whole fucking gender is what irks me. Not all men are rapists, not all women are victims. I'm appalled that I even have to tell you this. And let's not talk about sexualisation in this day and age especially on Tumblr where both women and men are constantly sexualized. We all are guilty of that crime especially women, I don't see men thirsting or salivating 24/7 here.
Feminism was coined to give women the equal importance as men in the society, equal..not above them or stronger than them or better than them. Equal.
Edit : Since you won't stop sending me stupid asks I blocked you but I know you'll stalk me anyways so please take this opportunity to go out there and smell some grass, live in the reality for once.

Anthony's Stupid Daily Blog (581): Thu 19th Oct 2023
I know the situation in Gaza is terrible but I think the people there can take solace in the fact that James Corden hasn't patronized them by doing a cold open on his chat show saying how sad the whole thing has made him. I checked out last night's Dynamite. The main talking point of the show was Sting announcing he’ll retire at AEW Revolution 2024 which traditionally happens in March so we have six more months of The Icon before he hangs it up for good. Sting was my favourite wrestler as a kid so I suppose I should be thankful that he's been a constant presense in my wrestling fandom ever since I first started watching it. I’m glad he’s getting to go out on his own terms because his WWE run was a complete dud and even though he obviously can't do the things he used to 20 years ago and he can literally only do the bare minimum now he's still the master of getting a pop from the crowd even if that means coming in for key spots while letting Darby Allin do all the heavy lifting. Even though he won't be wrestling any more I hope he sticks around in a managerial or authoritative role because he could still have a lot to offer the up and coming wrestlers. I don't know what Sting has planned for his final six months in wrestling but hopefully he doesn't go to crazy with the dives and we get treated to some dream matches between now and the final showtime. I went to Newcastle for my first proper session with the chiropractor today. They made me watch a video all about holistic healing and medicine before the session started which I rolled my eyes at. Chiropractic definitely works but what bugs me is how they try to postulate the reason that it works is because of magic an this energy that we have inside of us that isn't measurable or really provable in any way but it's definitely there. It's the same with meditation, that obviously works but it's sitting with your eyes closed and breathing gently, OF COURSE you're going to feel more relaxed by the end of it why attach magic to the process? Because my operation took place in my upper neck my chiropractor has to be careful when administering the cracks that you normally get during a rearrangement. When it came to relieving pressure on my upper neck she used one of those mini pogo stick things instead of cracking my neck with her hands. When I went to sign up with the chiropractor in Jarrow he told me that he would ONLY be using the mini pogo stick thing (I'm sure it has a proper name, if the bit of skin between your arsehole and your ballbag has a name then this thing probably does) which put me off going to see this guy. This session wasn't without the cracks though as she pushed down on my lower to mid back and it made some major cracking noises. The right side already feels like there’s less resistance whenever I try to touch my ear with my shoulder but as with the physiotherapy this might just be wishful thinking but I will reserve judgement until after I've had a few sessions to see if they really do start to relieve the discomfort.

September 15/Fri:
Woke up around 11:30, was motivated to get something done today.
Looked into how to optimize LinkedIn and clicked some new photos (none of which I felt is as good) but I still added one of them to my LinkedIn profile
Got v anxious v fast as I saw I am not eligible to apply for any job as my skills are below subpar and had a breakdown
I did apply to some places and got rejection mails p soon
The whole afternoon I cried, it's like a routine now to cry in the afternoon
Again my partner reassured me that it's not the end of the world and I still have time, I'm v burnt out so doing such stressful things will make me have more meltdowns and that I should rest properly
After the encouragement and lots of love from them I felt lots better
I then hyperfixated on Yoongi for a while and had a mental monologue about how Yoongi 's songs are so deep despite him appearing so non chalant.
I ate lots of sweets yday, more than 5 pieces of thick milky sweets and that caused my head to spin real bad but I wasn't able to sleep and felt again v depressed
I've been taking medications properly, now that my mom makes me take it religiously and won't go till I have and it but the feelings of great despair and helplessness doesn't go away and I have to fight with myself to not feel that way.
My partner has been telling me to take therapy frequently ans it might help as they feel it helps them, so I should look forward to my next session.
I played Pogo the whole afternoon toll mom suggested I should go to swimming as it's been a while and my membership lasts till 12 October, which was a surprise.
I thought I've not been doing any physical exercise so I should go and also it's nice to swim and hopefully due to my exercise my periods will be regular.
I shaved my legs and got in my swimming costume, blasted *Crossed* while playing pogo on my way to swimming pool. Just when I was about to enter a bird pooped on my shirt, it was drizzling a bit so I help my hand out and that's exactly when the bird decided to poop
The poo didn't hit my hand but was on my chest area and there's a school beside the swimming pool place and all the kids were like ew and I felt v embarrassed by I think I handled it v v welln
I wiped the poo and didn't really react much and went on my way.
I reached ten mins early to the swimming pool but I took some time to fix my costume and wear my cap.
The goggles I have is really bad idk why, I'm unable to see anything when I wear it, yday I noticed some scratches, I'll investigate it more and see wtf is up with it.
Swimming after a whole month was hard, I had very less stamina, I could only do 12 laps, usually I go for 16-18.
There was a v sweet thing happened yday where two kids, one 4th grader called Di and 5th grader called Gi came up to me to talk while the swim sesh.
Gi and I have waved at each other and had skme tiny brief talks, she asked me if my septum piercing hurts and she said her nose hurts everytime she sees mine which was funny and told me back then that she was in 5th grade.
Gi and Di both came to me and asked whixh grade I am in xD, bless their heart tbh it's so sweet and I took some time to answer, I first said I'm not in any grade to which they got a bit confused and then as they are kids and won't understand I'm unemployed and all the follow questions if have if I told them this would be bad so I said I'm working in Amazon ( it's been 5 months since I resigned) and they were like ohhhh so you get Amazon things for free? Can you get us something and it was v sweet and funny.
Then these two started splashing water at ecah other while I did one lap and after I rested next to them one of the kiddos splashed lots of water on me and as they are kids it was funny that tiny kids splashing loads of water on an adult, so I allowed it and was joking around that oh no ill drown xD
And they were splashing more and more water to whuxh I splashed back some and they were having fun wuth this and whenever I splashed water they'd turn away so that they don't get splashed directly on face so I swam under water and popped up right next to Di and splashed lotsa water and she was Owo how? It was funny nice and funny
Then both the kids started asking me to play around with them instead of swimming as it's fun whne I'm there and it was really sweet so I obliged. They did their childish shenanigans and when the bell rang indicating it was 7 already we got up and the kids asked me to walk home with them
The younger one, Di asked me if I'll come tomorow and I jokingly said no I can't, because you splashed so much water on me I'll get cold and she got v scared and said no no I'm sure you'll not get cold, and seeing her distressed I said haha jo, But she wasn't like content so she held her tiny pinky out and asked me to pinky swear I'll come tomorow and I did and cuz I did this with Di, Gi also made me pinky swear with her and now I have to go to swimming today else they'll be upset
Idk why I think so much, I started thinking what will happen after I stop going to swimming, will they be sad cuz I don't want them to. Plus I just am a bit worried that I'll not get much exercise done now that I'm stuck with kids, let's see how it goes...
I was v v excited to tell my partner about all this, but not on text, I wanted to hear them laugh and giggle so I texted them I'll tell em all during the nightly video calls and they were excited but I was more excited to tell if to someone right then and it was not night yet, so I told mom ans she laughed but I have been trying not to talk to mom much as our relationship is v dysfunctional ans she's extremely controlling and when I confront she says hurting words and abandon me to deal with damage. It makes me realize it's the first time ever that I'm keeping things both happy and sad from her due to her reluctance to hear me out without dismissing and abandoning me when I need and then tell me leave trauma and past problems in the past lol.
I had tea whole telling her the least amount of retail about the kids shenanigans and mom got some dhoklas and a cashew sweet which I ate.
After that I studied for 48 mins, I realized how much more I need to study and do more projects to get a hang of the concepts, it took me so much time to replicate one simple web page and it kinda geared me to study regularly.
Was called for dinner just after that and dinner was a sensory night mare, weird texture veggies and fish and it was really overwhelming. But I had to eat so I can take my meds.
Took meds at 9:36
After coming to my room I tried studying for some more time till it was ten and then we videocalled and I told them the whole thing ans we laughed but it seemed they were very sleepy and I wanted so bad to hear things from them more, to spend more time but I wanted tu be a kind partner and ask them to go and sleep and I think they saw I'm being a bit upset and they were like nope I'm tired yes but I wanna talk to you now.
One tiny hurt in me starts branching spreading into a whole big disaster but I did my best to control it.
They said they wanted to send me another sleep story vn and I was like please don't bb, you sent me so many of them so I want to completely cherish it and then out of guilt I told them please don't put so much effort in sending the sleep recordings, it's so sweet that you do but I don't want you to exert yourself and it hurts me and to this they felt extreme guilt and said I send em so you relax and feel happy and not be upset, please don't think I'm putting lots of effort into it and hurting myself, I enjoy doing it for you and you deserve it. You deserve the best love and I'm giving you that and I was on the verge of tears from all the kindness and love but also vv upset with myself for not stringing the words correctly and yet we resolved that thing and they were so eepy, I asked them to sleep please and they agreed and we exchanged our kisses and love.
I love them so much, I really want to marry them, have the rest of my life with them and for that I need to heal and not cry a lot and also fix my thinking and work on my dreams.
I slept p soon after that

🌹 'Bachelor' Winners: Epic Update! You Won't Believe!
Rachael Kirkconnell: A Rollercoaster Romance 🎢😄 Ah, reality TV love stories – where roses are handed out like candy on Halloween, and emotions flow faster than a water slide at a water park. But let's talk about Rachael Kirkconnell and her whirlwind journey on The Bachelor with Matt "The Confused" James. Cue the dramatic music and grab your popcorn, because this tale is juicier than a watermelon on a summer day. The Finale That Left Us Scratching Our Heads 🌹🤔 So, there they were, Matt and Rachael, in the grand finale of The Bachelor. The suspense was killing us like a suspenseful TV show usually does. And then, plot twist – Matt decided not to pop the question. Can we get a "what the heck" emoji here? 🤯 The twist was so sharp, even I got a paper cut just watching it through my screen. Antebellum Party Shenanigans 🎉🏛️ Hold on to your monocles, folks, because here comes the drama train. Rachael had a little party throwback to the good ol' days of antebellum charm. Yeah, you heard that right – a plantation party. Now, I don't know about you, but my idea of a good time isn't dressing up like I'm headed to a Civil War reenactment. Naturally, photos of this peculiar shindig surfaced faster than a beach ball at a Nickelback concert. The internet erupted, and Rachael found herself in hot water hotter than the tea you forgot on the counter for two days. The Apology Tour via Instagram 📸🙏 But wait, Rachael had an idea: Instagram apologies! Not just one, but two – because one heartfelt apology just wasn't enough for a plantation-themed party. It's like trying to put out a forest fire with a squirt gun. Nice try, Rachael. The Heart-to-Heart with Matt and Special Guest 🌹🎙️ So, they all sat down for the big talk – Rachael, Matt, and the special guest star, Emmanuel "The Relationship Judge" Acho. Things got more intense than a game of Monopoly with a sore loser. Rachael's face showed confusion, like when you find out your favorite snack got discontinued. She spilled, "When he first called me to end things, my initial reaction was I was very confused. I was very blindsided. But once that initial reaction went away, I thought about, you know, how strong I thought our relationship was." The Rollercoaster Rides Again! 🎢🔄 Just when you thought the rollercoaster was over, it revved up again. They split up but then got back together, like a flip-flopping drama duo. They confirmed their reconciliation in the ultimate "take that, rumors!" fashion – by being spotted together. Seriously, if I had a dime for every time a celebrity confirmed something by simply walking out of a Starbucks together, I'd be a millionaire by now. Love and Rumors: A Day in the Life 💑📰 In a stunning twist, they revealed they've become so immune to breakup rumors that they treat them like mosquito bites – an annoying itch that eventually fades away. Rachael eloquently put it, "I get it – because we’re together so much so whenever our schedules don’t line up or whenever we have our own things going on, I get where people come from." And get this, even Matt's own mom has taken up a part-time job as a relationship detective. She's like, "Where's Rachael?" whenever Matt shows up without his other half. Newsflash, mom: people have lives, even if they are on TV! So, there you have it – the rollercoaster love tale of Rachael and Matt. From antebellum parties to Instagram apologies, this story has more ups and downs than a pogo stick championship. Just remember, folks, if you ever want to navigate the maze of reality TV romance, bring a snack and a good sense of humor. It's gonna be a bumpy ride! 🍿🎢😄# Rachael Kirkconnell: A Rollercoaster Romance 🎢😄 Ah, reality TV love stories – where roses are handed out like candy on Halloween, and emotions flow faster than a water slide at a water park.
