✪”Are you jealous?”✪
Paring: Popular!sean anderson x bsf!reader
Summary!:Your tired of people gawking over sean so you do something about it..
Warnings: nun just fluff!
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
One day you were sitting with there friends peacefully eating there lunch when Sean appeared walking past before sitting down next to you. All the girls on the table were swooning over him except you they all were flirting with him saying things like
“Sean you’re so cute!!” or “Sean sit with us more often!!”, meanwhile you just rolled your eyes watching the girls drooling over him, Sean looked over to you with a smug face afterwards he comes to sit by you
“What are you jealous?” he asked smirking
“No I just can stand people always gawking over you it's weird” you say Chuckles and leans in, his eyes gleaming with amusement “Oh, I see. You think you're above all the fawning and attention? News flash, sweetheart, no one is immune to my charms.” he says cockily
“whatever I don't see why people like you” you say “Oh come on, everyone loves a winner. And I always come out on top." he says “sure.” you say blankly Grinning wider, clearly enjoying the banter “Well, maybe not everyone. But that just makes the victory sweeter, don't you think” he says “whatever” he starts Laughs lightly, taking another bite of his lunch “Alright, fine. Keep pretending you're not impressed. Just remember, when the day comes that you finally succumb to my irresistible charm” he says grinning “yeah ok I bet your the one who likes me”
Raises an eyebrow in amusement “Oh really? Well, aren't you just full of surprises? The fact is, I could have any girl I want. But maybe... just maybe… there's something about you that intrigues me.” he says “ and what is it hm?” you ask smiles and leans closer “Maybe I'm drawn to your fire, or the way you stand up to me. Maybe it's the mystery of what lies beneath that tough exterior of yours. Whatever the reason, I can't help but want to know more.”
“maybe I want to get to know more about you” I grin at him His grin grows wider, taking in her response “Well, that's fair enough. I'm an open book, or at least I try to be. Just remember, though, once you start flipping through these pages, there's no going back.” he says “I know” you say
“how about a date tonight 4pm?” you ask him Raising an eyebrow, surprised but intrigued A date, huh? Alright, 4 pm it is. He grins, clearly enjoying the challenge she presents “Just remember, though, I might not be the most romantic guy in the world.” he says and I just nod my head looking into his dark eyes “Ok bye Sean”
i kiss him on the cheek then get up to leave
“See you tonight," he called after her, his heart already racing with anticipation. As she walked away, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement. This girl was different, and he couldn't wait to see what happened next.
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
A/N: Im going to make a part 2! they gonna go to a amusement park cause i think i got a request for going to an amusment park for a date! (Sorry guys I’m changing up the character)😭

Being interested in the subcultures around conspiracy theories does put you in a place of "I really hope folks don't get the wrong idea from the title of this podcast" and "please don't let there be an antisemitic quote in this audiobook when im rolling down my car window"

Harringrove Lovefest: Love is a Battlefield
It's Harringrove Lovefest time! I'm so excited to not only see all the wonderful creations by everyone, but to share my own fics :D For today, I decided to go with the prompt, Love is a Battlefield. After a couple of attempts, I finally settled on the idea of Steve and Billy at Lazer tag ^^ Featuring the gang, it's Max's birthday and of course the Hargrove-Mayfield Siblings are on opposite teams. Who will come out on top? Max or Billy...Steve or Billy?
Edit: @harringrovelovefest: I managed to mess the tags up, oops. So hopefully this fic will come up when you search the tags now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Yes Steve. The targets are all over your body."
He mustn't have caught what Dustin had said the first time, but to his credit, he had been concentrating on the idiot in front of them who'd thankfully finally turned off. No signals. Poor lane discipline. Terrible driving. Trying to not get himself and his passengers killed seemed to happen more often than he'd like these days. At least the road was clear now, so maybe he'd be able to keep up with the explanation Dustin was attempting to give him. Him, Dustin, who was sat in the back, and Robin, in the usual shotgun seat, were on their way to another birthday celebration. This time, it was Max's. She'd pulled the gang together to go to Palace Arcade. After several months of expansion, the place had finally finished the new Lazer tag section and Max had been more than eager to try it out. She'd pretended to not be so bothered about it but it had been clear by how she'd constantly reminded the gang about it, that she was excited. Steve had never heard of Lazer tag so had had no idea what he was getting himself into or what to expect. But as usual, Dustin was happy to fill in him, Robin chiming in too.
"And you score points for shooting them. Different amounts depending on where you hit. If you shoot the same person enough, your opponent is dead and out of the game."
"Out the game? So what, you then sit out for the rest of the match? That sounds kinda boring."
"That's why they have the chill out zone. Have you not been paying attention Steve?"
"And why you try to not get shot," Robin smiled, looking over at him. With that look. Really helpful Robin. Real clever insight there.
The Camaro and Nancy's Marquis was already parked outside when they pulled up. Steve sliding the BMW in next to them. Max and Billy were already waiting at the entrance, leaning against the wall but clearly keeping an eye out for them. Nancy must just have arrived too because now the passengers were all piled out of the car. El, Mike and Will getting out of the back, with El excitedly rushing Max, before pulling back. Will waving at her and then at his brother in the car. Mike hanging back until El had finished hugging Max and then falling in by her side. Another car rolled up behind them and out popped Lucas. Him waving to his mom and dad, and Erica who was busy reading something, before walking over to the group. Giving Max a big hug as Billy just rolled his eyes and said nothing. Nancy and Jonathan however stayed in Nancy's car. Guess they weren't joining them then but Steve decided he'd just go and check before they all disappeared off into the arcade. No man left behind and all that jazz.
"You not joining us?"
Nancy wound down the window, a small but tight smile on her face. Her eyes saying something which she didn't speak out loud. "Work call," was all she said, Steve noticing Nancy wasn't the only one looking not the happiest. Jonathan looked like he'd barely slept, deep bags under his eyes. He was staring down at his camera, doing something with the lense. Steve nodded. Things between him and Nancy were still a little awkward. But they were slowly getting there. Her and Jonathan honestly just ready for a break. So he left them to it. Hopefully whatever the work call was, it wouldn't be so bad. Time for this lazer tag business though. The others were staring over at him and Max especially. Tapping her foot. He was holding them up. Time to go.
"No, I'm not writing down the Shitbirds Hargrove."
Hargrove grinned. The pencil hovered over the other team name slot, despite his sister's blatant stares. Of course the asshole would want to give them not only the worst name but give him an excuse to call them that too. Not that Max was having any of it.
"Bite me. We're not the Shitbirds. We're the Hawkins Hawks."
Steve knew Hargrove was just trying to get a raise out of them and it was kinda working. Finally prising the paper out of Hargrove's warm hands, he finally filled in the team name. Birthday girl rights stated that they were going with Max's name and that she was also the team leader. So her name went down first. Max had also wanted to kick his brother's ass, so she had chosen to be on the opposite side. Her team was made up of Steve, Robin, Mike and Dustin. He had been surprised that she'd not chosen El but it soon became clear why. Apparently Max's spirit had transferred to her too, and now she wanted to kick Mike's ass. She'd also come up with a team name which Hargrove had decided to jot down. He knew Hargrove would have prefer something darker but he also knew he was a sucker for El. Didn't matter how much the guy tried to shrug it off. And Hargrove wasn't a fan of Mike, something he didn't hide. So having El rather than Mike no doubt would have pleased him. That and he'd now be able to hunt Mike down with no legal repercussions.
The rest of his team was Lucas, Heather (who'd turned up just after the group had gone in) and Will. Apparently, there were usually meant to be way more people, strangers added if the party wasn't big enough by itself. But the Hargrove-Mayfields had hired the area out so it was just them. Pretty neat.
They all waited for Steve to hand in the form at the front desk before they were taken into the briefing room. Rules explained and then to a room where all of the packs were hung up on the walls. By the time Steve stepped into the room, the packs had been distributed. Colours chosen. Of course Hargrove had picked red. But Max seemed happy enough with blue, so he said nothing. Noticing the way Hargrove grinned though as Steve worked out how to put the pack on and finally strapped himself in. In they way that told him there was an ulterior motive for him choosing the red. Hmmmm. So much more tempting to wipe that smirk off his face. He could always do that on the field. Or die trying.
No one had played before but Steve knew that some of them would be better shots than others, and that some of them would also concentrate on one prey. With the others, it would just be a free for all.
"See all you shitbirds on the battlefield." A wink and then Hargrove was gone. Steve shaking his head before noticing Max's stare, her head nudge of 'come on' before she too disppeared into the darkness. He shortly followed after her. Into the narrow corridor of darkness. The lights of Max's pack swirling before going solid and the team emerging into what he could only describe as a neon version of hell.
It was like a mini city. Tall buildings scattered around the large warehouse like space, some appearing to have more than one floors. Dark holes large enough to be windows for someone to stand out, ominously looming in between the blue light cast walls. Lines of light cut across the gaps in the buildings. Indications of other things to come. The whole place was cast in the blue light, amplifying the blinking lights which indicated the team's pack. He spotted a blue pack, then a red. Then another blue as the teams made their way into their starting positions. A voice telling them to get ready for the first round.
The first round seemed to pass in a blink. The teams back in the pack room before they knew it. The reality being, that half an hour had come and gone. The last survivor registered at minute 29.
Max waltzed into the room like she'd just won a million bucks and she might as well have in terms of the match. She'd wiped the floor with everyone.
"In.Your. Face. Loser!"
Steve couldn't help but chuckle, seeing how Lucas wanted to say something but kept his mouth shut. The corner of his lips twitching as his girlfriend continued to rub her victory in. The last one had been a lucky shot but Max clearly didn't care. She'd caught Lucas completely off guard. But it didn't matter. She'd hunted Lucas the most and knocked him out. He'd managed to get a couple of shots on her but that was it. Mike and Robin had also suffered from Max's reign of terror. Steve had been taken out by an El and Heather double team ambush attack. El showing way more glee than he ever thought she would. But it was El, so of course he was gonna let her off. Dustin, however…..
"Where were you, you totally bailed on me!"
"I had Will on my ass, if you didn't notice!"
He hadn't and shrugged, Dustin rolling his eyes as he readjusted his pack. Even in lazer tag, Dustin apparently could still be sour. Steve couldn't be for long though. His stats against Hargrove were pretty good. Although he'd come fifth overall, he'd managed to kill Hargrove and come above him. Just; Hargrove was sixth and Steve knew that meant he'd now be out for blood next round. "Was just letting you shitbirds win as a warm up," was Hargrove's excuse, Steve rolling his eyes before checking his gun. Yeah yeah. Not like Hargrove hadn't just waltzed around and not taken it seriously until he'd been taken out by pretty much all of Max's team. Then he'd picked up the pace, but it had been too late. One more shot from Steve had finished him off and parked him on the bench. Who'd been the shitbird then?
The second round was a Hargrove comeback and another Mayfield rampage. The siblings owning the match and coming in first and second. Max continuing on her kill streak and bullying of Lucas. Hargrove constantly stalking Steve and taking him down at every opportunity. He'd not been messing around, eyes on the prize. A pretty darn skilled shot had taken Steve out the game and he'd watched from the sidelines as the others had been taken down. Ending in the siblings hunting each other down and then each other out. The points were tight but Max had just scrapped ahead. It didn't matter. Steve had come in last and Hargrove was elevated.
"What happened Harrington? You lost your stride man?"
Steve shrugged. "One one man. It's all to play for in the last one."
Hargrove grinned, tilting his head a little. "Ready to lose again you mean. At least put a bit of back into it this time. Ain't fun when your opponent just takes it lying down." Round three. Steve hid around the corner, his gun up like James Bond as he listened into the conversation. Softly chuckling as it went on.
"Hey! No making out shitbirds, we're here to play a game."
"I'm already out." Steve could hear the pout he knew Max was now giving her brother. "I got Lucas ages ago."
"Not that long ago." The protest from Lucas made Steve have to cover his mouth to dull the snort.
"Ages ago. I heard you coming a mile off."
Checking behind him, he peered around again. Coast was clear, no pack in sight. He could still hear soft muttering from the pit room but he didn't hone in anymore, instead choosing to zip right past and then listened out for Hargrove. Of course Hargrove wouldn't have gone far so he needed to keep his wits about him. Footsteps…sounding up the nearby stairs before there was a pause and then the sound of them slowly going back down. Perfect. He could even line up the shot from here. Got him. The sound of the pack echoed through the corridor and a disgruntled sound meant that he'd nailed him. Two to one. Gloating rights was his. Maybe not on points (in fact definitely not on points), but he could on take outs. Given how quiet it was, he couldn't help but wonder how many others were left. Was he the only survivor? Or were there others still hunting out there? It didn't matter. He'd got him. Fist pumping the air, he grinned as he went to find Hargrove. He knew that Hargrove might not give a rat's ass due to his admittedly sweet shot in the second game. And the points, but Steve was still gonna gloat. This was still his victory.
The packs made it hard to get close. Them clanging and smacking together as they kissed. But Hargrove didn't care; Steve's back was up against the wall. The lights on and off under his eyelids. His hands still finding skin under his jeans. Of course Hargrove had gone commando; did the guy ever wear pants? Did he even own any? Or had this been another special treat that Hargrove at times hinted at, whispering in his ear in the locker room. Breathing against his lips on the back seat of his BMW. Hands remaining on hips, he strayed no further. He didn't trust himself dipping onto his thigh. His thirst could go from zero to sixty in a blink of an eye and it would be hard to hide a hard on. Even in the cargos he was wearing.
"No making out?"
"Are you a shitbird?"
Steve chuckled, pushing Hargrove up against the opposite wall as soon as their packs were finally on the floor. Mouth on his neck as he pressed his leg against those tight jeans. How Hargrove had run around in those and not chafed was a mystery. But they certainly made things interesting now. Seemed like it wasn't just him that would have to cover up a hard on……

Mike has just taken an injury for Will and they're away from everyone as Will bandages him up. Everyone else is mostly quiet and keeping to themselves, but El is watching them from across the room. Jonathan assures her Mike will be okay, interpreting her lazer-focus as worry, but she just nods and smiles. Then motions to Mike and Will - their faces closer than necessary as they laugh and Will insists that Mike shouldn't have done that - and she says "they say it makes you crazy."
"What?"
"Love."

Songs Aaron T. would get edited the most to
I was going to post this with the other members too at the same time but my iPad is still very broken(I broke it after making this) so it would be very hard to do and T.’s is the only one done, so here y’all have him���
Tumblr media
(Ofc the one he’s most edited with is THE Aaron T. edit’s song, Talking Body but I made a post about this too!)
Hasta el Amanecer by Nicky Jam
Usually from 1:40 to 2:00
All bc he likes calling women mami, mama
😍hihihihi
To this audio, it’s usually clips of him in interviews, smiling and paying attention😭🫶
Chantaje by Shakira (feat. Maluma)
From 0:47 to 1:03
Mostly clips from concerts with bright lighting or editing pictures, sometimes his own thirst traps
One clip what always comes back in these edits though is when he brushes a hand thru his hair, the fact that he rarely takes his hat off makes it special when you can see him hatless
Addicted to You by Shakira
From 0:51 to 1:08
THE HIP THRUSTING CLIPS OF HIM IN CONCERTSSS
And if the clips are not from concerts, they are usually the ones with crumbs of him in natural lighting. Natural lighting gets his natural colors out so good
Pony by Ginuwine
ALL parts of the song
And the clips are always from his dance practices or slutty moves on stage
If not 4*town member, he could be a Magic Mike dancer I swear☹️
Love You Like A Love Song by Selena Gomez & The Scene

He’s just so beautiful with it
On the clips he’s always smiling🫶🫶
Runway Walk by Demrick (feat. Brevi)

Clips from his runways ofc
BUT there was a runway where he had one of those Hawaiian grass skirts on with the coconut bra, they edit that a lot to this song too😇
Cherry Cola by Kuwada
From 0:52 to 1:23
Usually clips of him doing dumb shit or just smiling prettily, he can do anything and he will be beautiful tbh
Do You Wanna Fuck by Byz
From 1:16 to 1:37
Sweaty and mostly shirless clips of him from concerts
I hc that once when he drank himself to animal, nobody could stop drunk Aaron T. to get to a karaoke machine and sing this in public
And that’s a meme in the fandom now, so he’s edited a lot to this song
Super Bass by Nicki Minaj
From 0:53 to 1:16
He’s her biggest fan I swear
The clips are from one of the cooking streams where he sang this exact part of the song
Or just of him having fun anywhere
Jenny from the Block by Jennifer Lopez (feat. Jadakiss & Styles P.)
1:06 to 1:30
HIM DANCING, DOING BACKFLIPS, FRONTFLIPS, ANY TYPA BREAKDANCE MOVE!!
Cold Water by Major Lazer (feat. Justin Bieber & MØ)
From 0:44 to 1:06
Clips from one of their videoclips(it somehow looks like Beauty And A Beat by Justin) or videos they made in the summer, like the ice bucket challenge
These edits focus on his fun personality, different from the ones that are making a point on his hotness
Butterfly by Crazy Town
From 0:46 to 1:04
Uggh ik I already made a post about this song and him but I can’t get over it
These edits have ALL the typa clips of him, just again, this song is so him that everything what’s him can go with it
Whatcha Say by Jason Derulo
Mostly all parts of the song, it’s so him that it hurts

And pictures cut in of him with all the expensive stuff he has🤭
Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding
From 3:10 to 3:56 usually
THEY HAVE A VIDEOCLIP WHERE IN HIS SCENES HE’S ON A STREET AT NIGHT WHILE IT’S RAINING
THAT’S WHAT THEY’RE EDITING
Ohmygod I want him☹️

Buckle up Ronance (and general spicy six) fans i wrote this when i was super tired but we got a Superman AU laid out right in front of us ft:
Robin Buckley as the clumsy and rambling reporter starting her new job at the Daily Planet, using her wits, language skills and eager curiosity to scope out a fresh take on Metropolis' pristine coat of futurism hiding its own dark underbelly of corruption and political warfare; not to mention the fact that she is the Superwoman (i usually prefer finding alternatives to using "man" or "woman" in the superhero genre but I can't really think of an alternate to something as basic as Superman so here we are), capable of flight, lazer vision and rescuing pretty woman without so much as a stutter
Nancy Wheeler as the Planet's greatest reporter, her determination and scrutiny all she needs to crack any story wide open, making her quite the target for the rich and famous but she doesn't appreciate this rookie coming in to steal her front-page headline spot; now Superwoman, on the other hand, is the most intriguing person she's ever wanted to investigate right on Metropolis soil
Nancy visits Gotham on occasion to meet her ex-partner and current good friend, Steve "Stevie" Harrington, to catch up during any of his various charity balls or just to give Mike an excuse to hang with Dustin (Steve's first ward, followed by Max, with Lucas and Erica dropping by often enough people don't really think too hard about it)
She does have her suspicions about The Bat running around the shadows of Gotham with Steve's tendency for concussion-inducing accidents but the idea of Steve of all people as a vigilante just feels too far fetched even for her
Of course, Robin does eventually meet Stevie during a story she's chasing on The Bat but the guy is just so airheaded and shameless that she doesn't want to even bother trying to get statement out of him. When she meets The Bat as Superwoman however, they hit it off so well that Robin thinks she may have found a best friend for life. When they eventually reveal their identities, she has to take a minute to reconcile that her platonic soulmate is Stevie Harrington of all people
Jonathan is Nancy's photographer a la Jimmy Olsen, and the dude is just so exhausted all the time from Nancy's running around but he's done a better job keeping up with her than her old partner Fred Benson so Chief insists that they stick together. After Robin showed up, he figured things would be easier with someone else to help wrangle Nancy but Robin just encourages the chaos with her own ambitious methods so he ends up bonding with Stevie of all people over Nancy's head-first running into danger, thank god for Superwoman's timing on that
I also think it'd be funny if Argyle was just a random pizza guy from Gotham who got caught up in a major crime syndicate's grasp and he just...ends up staying at the Harrington Manor after that and nobody in the family even questions it and now he mans the Batcomputer under codename Oracle ("Dustin, you can't just keep giving everything a codename" - "Fucking watch me")
Jargyle meeting at a Harrington charity ball and have a whole doki doki strangers to lovers because they 100% deserve a meet-cute in this AU
Anyways back to Ronance, Nancy falling in love with the snarky and witty Superwoman that always comes when Nancy needs her and Robin panicking because she's realised that she's head over heels for Wheeler and can't do a single thing about it meanwhile Steve teases her about the Wheeler Effect:
"The what?"
"The Wheeler Effect: I used to be in love with Nancy, she and Jonathan used to date, hell even Dustin crushed on her at some point -"
"STEVE YOU PROMISED NOT TO TELL ANYONE -"
I guess Eddie could be The Freak (like the Creeper from the animated series, but less Joker venom and more clothes) in a Catwoman role? Giving Steve a run for his money (sometimes literally) while secretly mentoring the Robins, much to the Bat's annoyance

[top disclaimer - I saw yesterday's whumptober prompt of worked to exhaustion and remembered a bit of my xcom2 with qsmp characters playthrough I keep meaning to type up at least tidier notes for. I haven't yet, but this is a pair of scenes 47 pages in to my 90 pages of notes. Hopefully enough of this makes sense... TLDR: Mike was kidnapped, there's been 2 awful missions in a row where many people get hurt, etc. Warnings for major character injuries, though there are no graphic descriptions.]
It's been a two days since Bogota. If Philza never sees another sewer again, it will be far too soon. Tiny scabs from where the Spectre sent its bugs all through his body still cover every bit of skin, and the larger lazer burns remain bandaged tightly.
Fit is visiting, looking even more exhausted than Philza feels. He's brought snacks, and gossip, and will not go back to bed no matter how much Philza suggests it. It's not like Philza would be lonely - Missa and Roier's mission had also been a bit of a wreck, the entire team of six also in the medical ward for the immediate future at least. Chayanne, too, is about, the young boy currently curled up and asleep on the foot of Missa's bed.
Must be terrifying for the kid, to be rescued from hell only to see both new parents in the hospital in a few days of each other. For Bobby, too; Jaiden was also on the mission with Missa and Roier.
Still, Fit is here, so they make small talk. There's not a whole lot happening on the ship, but they can pretend.
The curtain lifts up, and Philza expects either Chayanne or the Doctor. Instead he sees Cellbit, looking about as close to passing out as Fit. His uniform is smart but his hair is a mess from running his hands through it too often, his face is near gaunt, and his fingers shake where they cling to his tablet.
"Fit, Philza." Cellbit nods to them both.
Philza's wave comes with a wince, Fit's salute with an "oi there what's up?"
"I'm really sorry to interrupt, but we need you for something. Fit, that is. We need Fit."
"What is it?" Fit groans as he tries to peer at Cellbit's clipboard.
The paperwork is hastily tucked away, "there's an opportunity that's come up. We need you to go undercover and get some research done."
"You're fucking joking," Philza immediately cuts in, one arm protectively covering the largest of his wounds, while the other grabs on to Fit. "Cellbit, we just got back from Bogota. You know how bad Bogota was. There's no way in hell this is safe. And everyone who was in Kaduna? Can't it wait a week"
Cellbit at least has the decency to look genuinely apologetic, "if there was another option…"
"What is it?" Fit removes Philza's arm from his own. "I'm not really in top condition; if you just need shit blowing up, Vegetta's a little better off."
"Can't it wait until tomorrow?" Philza asks. "At least then our armour upgrades will be done."
"Phil," Fit's voice drops a little.
Philza knows what being scolded for being overprotective sounds like, but Fit is his friend. His friend, who he dragged through hell, and has been dragged through hell by, and he trusts with his soul.
"It's Mike," Cellbit says, and that has both of them shut up. "We think we have a lead, but from the glimpses our contacts got during the transfer... It doesn't look good. Here."
Fit is handed a tablet, and shown whatever evidence the resistance has found.
"Fuck," Fit whispers the word, rubbing at his face. "There's nobody else?"
Philza is handed the tablet. It's a very short video clip, slightly corrupted. Still it's very clearly Mike, bloody and disorientated and still fighting as he's dragged from one transport van to another. He manages to bite a guard, and for it gets cracked over the head, goes limp and is tossed into the van.
He hands the tablet back, and tries not to think about the implications, or how they probably don't have as much time as this needs.
Instead he runs through the options: Jaiden and the team she took to Kaduna are back, but every one of them is in hospital with him. Forever, Tubbo, and Aypierre are needed on the ship. Mouse is still exhausted, even more dangerous for psi ops than the rest of them to push it. Cellbit himself still has one arm in a sling, and probably should not have left medical yet. A couple of other people, but most are too inexperienced to be sent out in just a duo for what will likely be a multi-week stealth operation. There's Baghera and Foolish, both experienced, but neither is much good at hacking. Which. Will probably be needed, to confirm which facility has Mike, and for how long.
There's Pac, of course, and Philza would put Pac on being the other half of the planned team. Ever since Mike was captured best part of two months ago, Pac has been on one ground mission - and there have been a lot of ground mission. The problem is, without Mike, Pac can be... Not volatile, volatile is Mike when Pac is critically injured and dying on the floor and Mike is too terrified to let anyone past to stabalise him, but reckless. Only with his own safety, but that's a problem itself.
Add in that Pac was /also/ on the mission in Bogota, still recovering from the sheer exhaustion of the test... Philza really wishes anyone else were available.
"There's Pac," Cellbit offers, also frowning. "He found out and wants in."
"If Pac's going, you need to go." The words taste like ash on Philza's tongue. "If it were not about Mike…"
Cellbit nods in agreement.
They can't keep Pac from going after Mike, and the purpose of a mission is impossible to keep secret for long with thirty-odd people crammed into one airship. Forever wouldn't be willing to, either. And to get Mike back but have lost Pac... They cannot do that either.
And Pac needs a stabalising hand with Mike gone, someone to keep him from shattering completely. There's a reason every mission he's been on since, Fit has been there. There's good reason, and everyone knows it.
Fit misses Mike like a limb, too, Philza knows.
Fit sigh, and stretches, and rubs his face, "I hate when you're right. Do I have time for a nap?"
"You leave in twenty minutes, but it's a long flight," Cellbit does seem apologetic, for all he runs his hands through his whitening hair. "The real problem is it's in Australia."
"Fucking hell," Fit groans. "They really didn't want us finding him, did they?"
"But we did," Cellbit reminds them, with a flash of his slightly too sharp teeth. "And they won't keep him. Once we have the coordinates, Forever'll send someone to help you get in and out."
Philza and Fit share a look. Fit looks like the exhaustion has seeped into his soul. It's a danger, going out in the field so tired. To himself, to others, to everyone.
But sometimes, he supposes, there really is no other choice.
Fit breaks eye contact first, "I'll kit up and be at the hanger in ten. Who's briefing us?"
"Not sure yet. Forever's still working out the details, so probably him?"
"A'ight," Fit turns to Philza. "See you later, big boy."
Philza rolls his eyes to mask his concern. "Just don't fall asleep on the job."
He gets flipped off; Philza laughs, and lets them leave.
Two weeks later, Pac and Fit come back - not someone joins them, they come back. They have Mike's location, and an entry point, and the head cracking didn't kill him, but he's being tortured and there's talk of disposing of him soon. Philza wishes that was the worst of it, though, he really does; most people's injuries have recovered so getting a team together won't take long. It's serious, but they can handle it. Hell, he'll voluenteer.
No, the worst of the report is that Pac gives it alone; Fit was rushed straight to medical as soon as they land. He is alive - conscious even - but the wounds are still severe.
Didn't hear a Viper coming, Pac says, was caught and constricted and had his rib cage crushed. And then used a grenade to force it to let go, dropping it at his own feet to force the alien to let go. Pac had been hacking at the time, getting the info they needed, and didn't notice anything until Fit was snatched from the door.
Fit didn't hear it, or so Pac says, too tired, too caught up in exhaustion to hear the threat until it was too late.
And Philza, Philza wishes he was surprised.

Beauty & the Bieber (Unexpected Musical) — PattyCake Productions music video
youtube
Continuing their signature style of combining childhood classics with modern music, the PattyCake guys decided to tackle a tale as old as time for their next project. In addition to Justin Bieber's melodies and the musical motifs from the 1991 animated film, they also included elements from the forthcoming 2017 live action remake.
Details:
title: Unexpected Musicals — Beauty and the Bieber
performers: Jamie Fritz (Belle); Earl Elkins, Jr. (Beast); E. Michael Evans (Gaston); Joey D'Angelo-LaJoie (LaFou); Alexander Browne (Lumiere); Brad Pettitt (Prince Adam); Leah Lowman (village girls); Anita Wakim (Enchantress)
original songs / performers: [0:15] "I'll Show You" by Justin Bieber; [0:53] "Baby" by Justin Bieber, feat. Ludacris; [1:09] "Love Yourself" by Justin Bieber; [1:21] "Never Say Never" by Justin Bieber, feat. Jaden; [2:12] "Boyfriend" by Justin Bieber; [2:36] "Company" by Justin Bieber; [3:30] "Beauty and a Beat" by Justin Bieber, feat. Nicki Minaj; [4:10] "Sorry" by Justin Bieber; [4:22] "Let Me Love You" by DJ Snake, feat. Justin Bieber; [4:44] "Cold Water" by Major Lazer, feat. Justin Bieber & MØ
written by: "I'll Show You" by Justin Bieber, Michael "BloodPop" Tucker, Sonny "Skrillex" Moore, Theron "Neff-U" Feemster, & Joshua Gudwin; "Baby" by Justin Bieber, Christopher "Tricky" Stewart, Terius "The-Dream" Nash, Christopher "Ludacris" Bridges, & Christina Milian; "Love Yourself" by Justin Bieber, Benjamin "Benny Blanco" Levin, & Ed Sheeran; "Never Say Never" by Adam "Messy" Messinger, Nasri Atweh, Thaddis "Kuk" Harrell, Jaden Smith, Omarr Rambert, & Justin Bieber; "Boyfriend" by Mike Posner, Mason Levy, Matthew "Blackbear" Musto, & Justin Bieber; "Company" by Justin Bieber, Andreas Schuller, James Wong, Leroy Clampitt, Jason "Poo Bear" Boyd, James "JHart" Abrahart, & Thomas Troelsen; "Beauty and a Beat" by Max Martin, Anton "Zedd" Zaslavski, Savan Kotecha, & Nicki Minaj; "Sorry" by Justin Bieber, Michael "BloodPop" Tucker, Sonny "Skrillex" Moore, Justin Tranter, & Julia Michaels; "Let Me Love You" by William "DJ Snake" Grigahcine, Justin Bieber, Andrew "Watt" Wotman, Ali Tamposi, Brian Lee, & Louis Bell; "Cold Water" by Thomas "Diplo" Pentz, Justin Bieber, Karen Marie "MØ" Ørsted, Benjamin "Benny Blanco" Levin, "King Henry" Allen, Philip "Jr Blender" Meckseper, Ed Sheeran, & Jamie Scott
arranged by: Layne Stein & Tony Wakim
release date: 17 March 2017
My favorite bits:
combining the rhythmic strings and the villagers' greetings from "Belle" with the melody for "I'll Show You"
Belle explicitly giving Gaston the brush-off
the tinkling minor motif from the animated movie as Belle enters the castle
Earl's fantastic growl at the end of "Never Say Never"
LaFou's gleeful fawning over Gaston and dancing on the tables
the sneaky ♫ "May-be" ♫ from "Company" overlapping with the tavern scene and leading into the "Be Our Guest" instrumentation
the Beast's lovely vulnerability during the dinner and dancing
using the crunchy horn motif from "Battle on the Tower" to create menace in this version of "Let Me Love You"
Earl's voice being layered over the final lyrics after the transformation

Trivia:
○ The obvious starting point for this project was Jusin Beiber's "Beauty and a Beat", which Tony and Layne had performed as part of VoicePlay's "Wow! Vol. 1" medley during the 2015 Sing-Off tour, but one song does not a full plot make. The guys delved into his extended catalogue to find songs that fit certain story beats and would blend well with the animated movie's score.
○ This was an incredibly ambtious undertaking. According to the PattyCake guys, preparations took five months, and filming spanned "six long days" (and nights, clearly).
○ All that hard work paid off, though, since they were able to time their YouTube release for the same day that the Emma Watson movie hit theaters.
○ VoicePlay recorded a Beauty and the Beast medley for "Once Upon an Ever After" (2012), their first album with Tony as a member of the group. Excerpts from that arrangement later appeared in their music videos "Be Our Guest", "Aca Top 10 – Disney Sidekicks", and "Aca Top 10 – Disney Villains". They also included "Belle" in their "Aca Top 10 – Broadway" countdown.
○ "Love Yourself" was the first song in VoicePlay's PartWork series, which they started as preparation for Tony leaving the group.
○ Layne occasionally used "Baby" as his interruption at the end of VoicePlay's "Road Trip" medley / comedy sketch.
○ On top of their usual studio work, this production required multiple location shoots:
The outdoor village scenes were filmed at the Casa Feliz museum.
Beast's castle interior was the Ballroom at Church Street, which closed in 2019, and was demolished 2023.
The tavern was an actual bar, the Tap Room at Dubsdread.
○ Between the main cast and dozens of background folks, they needed so many costumes that Tony enlisted his sister Anita to help wrangle them all.
○ There are several of Tony's fellow "Beetlejuice Revue" alumni among the main cast:
Michael (Gaston) played Dracula and Frankenstein's monster.
Joey (LaFou) played Wolfman and Dracula.
Brad (Prince Adam) was a dancer in the final "Mashup" iteration of the show.
○ There are also many friends and family among background cast and crew, including several cast members from previous Unexpected Musicals. Olivia Adkins and Leah Lowman are among the village crowd as Snow White and Cinderella. Rachel Copeland and Matthew Buckner are in the tavern crowd, but not as their previous characters. Many of the other villagers were clubgoers in "Hocus Heathens".
○ This video got a nice write-up on Huffington Post.

In an interview with GQ in 2016, Dave shared the pseudonyms the Boosh boys used to check into hotels!
Dave: “Mine was “Jimmy Lazers”, Mike’s was “Mungo Figg”, Julian’s was “Harris Tweed”, Noel’s was “Eli Cash” and Rich’s was “Stephan Unterwasser” (German for underwater).”

A List of Characters I am Fine With Comedy Legend Carol Burnett Playing in the Last Few Episodes of AMC’s Better Call Saul:
Marion Wexler (Kim’s hot mom)
Marion Hamlin (Howard’s mom)
Marion Salamanca (either the white American mom of Lalo or wife of Hector)
Marion McGill (one of Jimmy’s ex-wives. Or, what the hell, both of them in a surprise double-casting. But they’re both named Marion)
Marion White (Walt’s mom who fucking hates him and who was delighted when Skyler finally told her that Walt had cancer)
Marion Lasertag (pronounced Lah-zer-tahg; owner and proprietor of Lazer Base, Albuquerque’s premiere laser tag facility)
Marion Nguyen (Mrs. Nguyen’s wife)
Marion Pinkman (Jesse’s aunt who died of cancer)
Marion Allen Dupree (aka Jesse Pinkman’s original name in the pilot script. So it’s basically just Carol Burnett in a beanie)
Marion Cinnabon (Gene’s manager at Cinnabon)
Marion Ehrmantraut (Mike’s ex-wife/Matty’s mom. Although I personally prefer to think of Mike as a single trans dad who went to a sperm bank and did some at-home turkey basting to get pregnant, I will accept this if the ex Mrs. Ehramtraut is even more of a crooked cop than Mike was)
Carol “Marion” Burnett (she plays herself)
Augusto “Marion” Pinochet (we finally get that flashback that confirms Gus worked for Pinochet, but he’s played by Carol Burnett)
and finally, the one I’m really gunning for:
Judge Marion Papadoumian

I love how Michael being a good artist and having a good sense of humor is actually canon in one of the books. The dude drew Nightmare Fredbear. He also drew a flying stick figure using Lazer eyes to blast Freddy into oblivion. And he drew casual bongos and exotic butters. It was funny as fuck.
I wish we had more cannon mike art smh. I think the ones in the survival logbook are so fun smh.
