Fluent Freshman - Part 23

There were a few reasons that Andrew and Neil could not get past reception to go see FF or get updates on his current condition.

The first reason was that visiting hours were long over by the time they had arrived a little after midnight.

The second reason was that hospitals, in general, don’t just give out information on their patients to any random person that walks in and asks for an update on their condition. They are ESPECIALLY hesitant to give out updates on patients when the people who are asking can’t give you anything other than a first name, general description, and the reason that the patient is in the hospital.

Somehow “Completely average looking guy with the last name Smith who was stabbed in the stomach” is not enough for the receptionist to go off of.

“There are multiple people here that fit that description. I would need at least a first and last name before I could even begin to start seeing if you were someone who we even could give updates to. No, I will not continue to play your fun little game of guess the first name.” She says when Andrew opens his mouth to start listing off names alphabetically again.

So now Andrew and Neil found themselves under the watchful eye of a security guard as they sat in the back corner of the front reception area.

“I can’t believe we still don’t know what Smith’s first name is.” Neil says his face is buried in his hands as he and Andrew sit in the uncomfortable chairs trying to figure out where to go from here.

“I think she knows exactly who we want to see.” Andrew scowls towards the receptionist who, long used to the ire of the public, pays him no mind. Andrew just refused to believe that there were that many brown haired, brown eyed, average height and weight guys who had suffered a stab wound to the stomach that would have been admitted in the last two hours.

“I just hope they actually are looking after him and that no one went and forgot about him in an hallway somewhere.” Neil says hands sliding up into his hair to grip.

“That wouldn’t happen.” Andrew dismisses despite knowing that Wymack had ABSOLUTELY forgotten FF at a stadium once during the period where FF had been low presence to keep his family from bothering him.

The U-turn he had pulled had definitely been illegal when FF called and asked where the bus was when they had been on the road for five minutes. Wymack had felt terrible about it but FF had just seemed relieved that the bus had come back for him.

Wymack.

Andrew pulls out his phone and dials a familiar number. Wymack, reliable as always, picks up on the fourth ring with the sound of cursing as he got the phone up to his ear. “What.” He asks and Andrew can hear the sounds of driving and Kevin’s infamously train-like snoring in the background.

“What’s Smith first name. You know it.” Andrew demands.

“Classified.” Wymack clips back immediately.

“I need to know it so that we can get updates.” Andrew hisses.

“He isn’t interested in people knowing it and you wouldn’t be able to get updates anyways.” Wymack dismisses.

“We want to be able to head back to see him.” Neil tries.

“Visiting hours are long over Josten. You know that I’m not settling that bet that you little fuckers have floating around about this.” Wymack responds back.

Andrew grits his teeth and then forces himself to relax his jaw, “It’s not about the bet.” Andrew shuts his eyes in irritation.

That stupid bet.

The betting culture within the Palmetto State Foxes Exy team that Reynold’s had cultivated held strong even after her graduation with the remaining Foxes. The Bet had started when one of the other freshmen had mentioned that it was funny that FF went around like Cher or Madonna. The realization that none of them knew FF’s first name was one that had them placing bets on a multitude of things. Things like: “Do you wanna bet it’s a super normal boring name?”, “Do you wanna bet that it’s a weird foreign name?”, and “Is FF intentionally not giving it out to people or since he goes by his last name normally he has no idea that anything is amiss?” Had lower pools since you were betting on a spectrum. The bet with the highest pool is: “What is FF’s first name”.

Wymack had categorically refused to answer it and all other attempts to discover FF’s first name had been met with frustration. There was a solemn agreement that no one could just go and outright ask him since that would ruin all of the fun. Andrew had agreed to not ask when the team had collectively filled his freezer with ice cream cake and he was a man of his word.

The general belief (after the revelation of his major and the number of languages FF spoke) was that FF’s name was just not easy to pronounce for English speakers.

Andrew hadn’t participated but he know that the Foxes do have a running list of names they know it’s not. (Greg, Will, Smith (again), Matt, Kevin, Neil, Andrew, Aaron, Nathaniel, Jack, Beyonce (Sheena’s drunken guess), Nicholas, John, Fred, Garfield, Frank, Alfred, Augustus, Adam, etc. (Andrew had been trying to guess with the receptionist for a while))

“You’re coming here aren’t you? We can get updates when you get them.” Neil says.

“He’s in emergency surgery right now and will remain there for the next few hours most likely. There’s not going to be any updates hopefully.” Wymack says with a sigh loud enough that they can hear it over Kevin’s snoring.

“Surgery? He needs surgery?” Neil asks sounding surprised s if FF hadn’t been stabbed to the hilt into his stomach with one of Andrew’s knives. He’s about to give Neil some shit for the question before remembering that if there was any person who would think that a stab wound to the stomach wouldn’t necessitate surgery it would be Neil “I’m Fine” Josten.

“Yes Josten, he needs surgery. They have to stitch up his stomach and the surgeons are also going to be dealing with some of the ulcers that were ruptured by the knife.” Wymack explains likely coming to the same conclusion that Andrew had on Neil’s stupid question. “They were a bit worried about him bleeding out but he stabilized before the surgery.” Wymack sighs.

“I’m going the hospital since I’m Smith’s medical proxy. If anything goes wrong with the surgery I want to be there so I can make an informed decision on his care.” Wymack says and… Andrew figured there’d be surgery but to hear it and the possibility that something could go wrong, that the last thing FF had said to him had been something non-sensical about “Gracie Hart wouldn’t have gotten stabbed. I’m Cheryl at best.”as he’d started succumbing to all the blood loss. “If you could stick around long enough for me to drop Kevin off with you I would appreciate it.” Wymack says.

“What if he needs a blood transfusion?” Andrew says.

“Smith is AB-, it’s the second easiest blood type to transfuse into. Go home Andrew.” Wymack repeats.

Andrew works his jaw irritated that there didn’t seem to be a path to getting his way.

“We’ll stay here until you get here.” Andrew agrees, “But you’ll get an update before we leave.” He adds.

Wymack sighs, “Fair enough.” He says before hanging up.

It’s 45 minutes of waiting and tossing a few more name possibilities at the receptionist who seems more amused than anything at their continued attempts to guess their friend’s first name (Neil goes through the entire list of names that he’s gone by and none of them get the thumbs up).

Wymack comes through the doors with a half awake Kevin Day following his steps. “I have another favor to ask you.” Wymack says instead of any form of greeting.

“I’m not going to leave Kevin in the car overnight again. It was just that one time.” Andrew says with a roll of his eyes and honestly he’d been punished enough listening to Kevin bitch, moan, and sneeze for the following week while talking about all the supplements he was taking.

“Not that,” Wymack pauses, “I have two favors to ask you. First don’t do that. Second, would you be able to pick up Smith’s grandma from the airport tomorrow?” He asks.

Andrew blinks.

“She’s coming here?” He asks.

“I updated her on my way here. She booked a flight and will be arriving around noon tomorrow.” Wymack says and Andrew doesn’t know why he’s confused by this. FF’s grandma got him two still warm pies to cheer him up on Thanksgiving.

He’d stabbed that woman’s grandson.

“I’ll pick her up.” He agrees.

do you two know each other’s favorite colors

Sheesh, my bad, didn’t know you hated my main man red so much!

I don’t—I don’t hate it. It is simply not my favorite; that’s what the original question was about, was it not?

Well, what is it then?

What?

What’s your favorite?

…

Seriously? It’s way too late to pretend like you don’t have one! You already said it wasn’t red, so what is it!

…

…Pink. And green. It’s a pleasant color combination—if I recall correctly, they are…they are...They go well together.

No lie, those are pretty swag colors…….so what about mine?

Yours?

Do you know my favorite color?

Of course I don’t, why would I?

You’re such a bad friend, man!

We are not friends.

Hope you got a pen nearby ‘cause you better be writing this down: I like……………..ALL colors! My favorite is everrrrrrryyyyy color!

Absolute nonsense. How is every single color your favorite? Do you even know what that word means? It—

Oh, so you can like pink and green, but I can’t like every color? Huh?

It’s only two compared t—

But doesn’t ‘favorite color’ imply that, whatever it may be, it is a singular hue? Isn’t it atrociously incorrect for you to list two separate colors? Shouldn’t—

Stop it. I do not sound like that.

Yeah, yeah, and your favorite color isn’t red, we’ve all heard it

IT IS NOT—

#no way back is here #needless separation is here #average ask takes 3 hours factoid actually statistical error. favorite colors georg who was drawn under a desk in english class and had two #lines of dialogue written before having to be put away for 2 hours until i came home and even then was too busy eating spaghetti to finish #writing it is an outlier adn should not have been counted #anyway sep trying desperately to remember color theory like it’s not killing him

Cas + Faith 9/?- 5x16: Dark Side of the Moon

The alternate quotes are from the discussion of this moment in episode 23 of @thecascast, Dark Side of the Cas. The idea of doing a series following Cas' faith journey had been floating around in my head for a while, but this discussion is what lead to me actually doing this series so thanks y'all.

ID: Three images of a digital drawing of Cas from episode 5x16 of Supernatural. The drawing shows Cas' head and shoulders, viewed from above, with his face turned upwards towards the viewer. His expression is upset. The background is in shades of orange and the drawing is set within a circle, with a quote around the outside. In the the first image, the words read "Fuck you. I believed in-". In the second image, the words read "You son of a bitch. I believed in-". In the third image, the words read "You coward. I believed in-". The difference in the quotes is the only difference between the three images. End ID.

#cas #castiel #supernatural #spn #CasFaithSeries #spn 5x16 #dark side of the moon #finally got to the one that started it all #relistening to this one while drawing this and gotta say. good ep team #cas is SUCH a character always but also specifically in this ep #he can never go home!! hes in the radio! hes in the tv! he says condolences!#he's a train without tracks!! im screaming!!!! i love this dude!!!!#the son of a bitch line doesnt take me out of the scene as much as yall talked about cuz i am always too busy being sad HOWEVER #i do prefer you coward it feels more cas-like and it just hits harder imo #and fuck you is just... mwah!#cas should get to say fuck!!

Hiya, I wanted to share a kinda weird story and ask a question. Just wanted to say you’re a very talented storyteller and I’ve been thinking of your work a lot. I ended up having a dream about time & time again last night where Steve tries to steal the American flag for a bunch of children. It was a pretty angsty dream but I still found it kinda funny because it seems on brand for Steve lol. Also, for those who can’t afford to buy the books on kickstarter, will there be other options to help fund? If the kickstarter succeeds will you list the books on your website or are they one and done? I hope you’re having a lovely day!

I love how the way you've approached this makes me unable to ignore the first part to be able to answer the second.

To start with the questions though, I'll be making a PDF people can get to help support (that will be included in all tiers)! It should be a fun item for any fan of the series... You'll also be able to get just one book instead of all 4 from season 1. I'm trying to plan some other things, but it's all still very much in development so I'm wary of committing too openly to it!

And I am planning to have the Kickstarter goal fund extra copies for me to put on my site and take to conventions, yes! So if someone can't support when it comes out, if it funds then they can order the books later, or find me at a convention with some copies!

I'm planning to be incredibly up front about the costs and processes by which I came to all my decisions, because I've made quite a few strange choices but I assure you they're all just in service of getting books out as soon as (and as fun as) possible!

And for the first bit, it's incredibly flattering to hear that you think about my work... And to the extent that it's invaded your subconscious! Wow! Depending on the context it's definitely something he'd do, complete with angst in a silly situation. Thank you for sharing this with me, I hope your day is kind to you.

#the pdf is going to be an activity book you can print out at home!#it's designed to be activities that line up with each arc #so youre meant to 'play along' as you read!#which of course is something that can be done without the books ^^#but im planning on paper dolls #maybe some crosswords #mazes #stuff like that!#no promises i haven't made too much of it yet... ive been uhh #busy with making the comics and prepping the books for print #its all been nearly a month of work so far #and ive nearly a month of work more to go #but im right about halfway and i think things are settling down!#as for the books... im planning to ship them out one at a time.#so its a bit more expensive for this...#but my reason for doing so is that I'd have to either do a Kickstarter for each book #which is WAY WAY WAY too many kickstarters theres gonna be like 10 books or something by the end of this comic #OR id have to wait a year to do them all at once.#so im going to put the shipping costs for one at a time #and then explain 'if you wait a year to get them all at once shipping will be approx this much'#again trying to be very very transparent about the costs of things #cause im trying to make it as inexpensive as it possibly can be...#but 4 books is like $100 pretty much any way you slice it :(#so im very nervous about it all succeeding #so im trying to add in as much as i can to hopefully help ease it towards success #cause also 4 books... thats like a 10k goal minimum.#very big project and incredibly scary!!!#anon #asks #Kickstarter stuff

Today’s line:

Am I going to put it under a cut for mild mouth whump because I am too tired to deal with tws? You bet.

“Fuck.” A gasp. “You.”

“Ah.” Clayton put the tip of a knife on Finnian’s lip, making him freeze. “Manners.”

He dragged the knife down, only nicking his upper lip, but splitting his lower lip in half. The taste of blood filled Finnian’s mouth, and he let his head hang low so he wouldn’t choke on it. He hoped his coughs would swallow his quiet sobs, wondering just how much pain this little blade could cause.

30 days 30 lines

#30 days 30 lines #23 #a lot of pain :)#Manners says the guy currently busy turning my sweet boy into minced meat #So the CampNano I am absolutely not doing is going not too badly #I took today off because it was hot as fuck and I didn't want to die on my way home #so I got a couple of words down #In total I broke 10k for this month and 60k for the novel #Cautiously on track with my outline and deadline #I also have a shitton of open tag games but all my energy goes into not dying from heat #and getting words down #so uh... yeah... eventually yknow
