Solar Opposites in: Ultra Opposites Episode #15: “New Ultra Opposites Pt. 2” (by @avaveevo)
When we last saw our heroes, they escape the wrath from a furious Romelle. Now, the heroes landed on a foggy Rocky Mountain as they catch their breath
Jamie/Firey: What were you thinking? I mean, stealing the orb?!
Darcy/Miss Darcina: Yeah Chloe. We were supposed to earn Romelle’s trust, not steal from her!
Princess Chloe sighs.
Princess Chloe: sigh Look I am sorry. I didn’t have a choice okay?
Solar Flare starts flaring up.
Terry/Solar Flare: Are you nuts? What you did back there was out of line! I had no idea you would go this low!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Honey, calm down.
Princess Chloe: Well, I am doing the best I can, Solar Flare! Ugh! Sometimes I wonder why you’re all heroes in the first place! You’re all too useless and think about yourselves! How lazy can you all be anyway?!
Solar Flare snaps.
Terry/Solar Flare: Hey don’t talk about my family and my friends like that! Judging from the way you are acting, you’re the only princess who doesn’t trust us heroes!
Princess Chloe’s anger flares up.
Princess Chloe: WELL MAYBE WE WOULD’VE BEEN BETTER OFF WITHOUT FUCK UP HEROES LIKE YOU!
Solar Flare gasps and starts to tear up. The rest of the Ultra Opposites are shock, saddened, disgusted and furious over what Chloe said. Princess Chloe is shocked at what she said
Princess Chloe: Terry… I-
Solar Flare: I just can't be here right now...
Princess Chloe: But Terry, let me explain-
Solar Flare: JUST LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!
Solar Flare then turns into his Mundane form and punches Princess Chloe to the floor as he runs off in tears without a word. Ms. Perez and the rest of the Ultra Opposites look at Chloe in disgust.
Korvo/The Legendary Super Shlorpian: What the fuck is the matter with you?!
Cherie/Agent Red: You heartless royal fuck! How could you?!
Nova/Lady Roseus: How could you say that about our friend?! And to us?!
Princess Chloe: Wait a minute! I can explain-
Yumyulack/Psylock: What is with you, your highness, don't take your anger out on us, we all stuck together because our newfound friendship and relationships really mattered, but I guess I was wrong...
Darcy/Miss Darcina: Yeah, look Chloe, you're a cool Princess and all... But that wasn't cool, your highness. That was totally out of line. You... You've become a cold person! All head and no heart!
Princess Chloe snaps.
Princess Chloe: Ugh! Look, just-
Ms. Perez slaps Chloe in the face as Chloe screams, much to the other Ultra Opposites’ surprise and Mia’s smitten.
Mia: smitten whistle
Legendary Super Shlorpian slaps Princess Chloe in the face
Princess Chloe: Ow! What was that for?
Ms. Perez: For hurting my friend's feelings.
Princess Chloe: But they-
Ms. Perez: I don't wanna hear it, okay?! What is your problem, Princess?! You had no right to yell at Terry and the others like that! And you had no right to treat us like that too! You’ve changed! All you care about is yourself! And you know what? Terry’s right! You're not the same princess everyone know anymore, and Terry’s feelings are probably hurt now! So what are you now? her face turns into a sad look ...Certainly not the princess everyone knew and loved. But if you feel like you're better without heroes and friends, you can be alone all you want now…
Princess Chloe gasp in remorse.
Princess Chloe: Ultra Opposites, wait! Give me another chance! I-
Kevin/The Flamethrower: I think you've said enough already.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Yeah! Yeah princess, it's too late, the damage has already been done…
Everyone leaves. Electra gives the princess a cold look. Princess Chloe sighs. Later, Ms. Perez sighs as she looks up at the sky while Mia watches her.
Ms. Perez: takes a deep breath I just need to clear my head….
Mia: Ms. Perez?
Cue Song:
[MS. PEREZ, spoken]
I just need to clear my head and start... fresh. (sigh)
[MS. PEREZ]
Gotta be unique but gotta blend in
Hide my inner geek and keep pretendin'
Gotta keep ’em laughin'
Though I'm only half in
Gotta put a show on ’til I know they like me
Gotta be aloof, make a good impression
Gotta hide the proof of my self expression
Never be revealing
Gotta be appealing
Suddenly I'm feeling
Like I'm getting so
[IMAGINARY MONSTER]
Small
[MS. PEREZ]
Breaking into little pieces
Losing power
[IMAGINARY MONSTER]
Getting weaker
[MS. PEREZ]
Gotta do whatever plеases
'Til they let mе in
So we try to be more than enough
Trying to be strong and tough
Try to be something we're not
Try to fit a different plot
Proving we're bold
Without causing a fuss
We're trying so hard to be us
Will it ever be enough?
Gotta be unique but gotta blend in
Hide my inner geek and keep pretendin'
Gotta keep ’em laughin’
Though I'm only half in
Gotta put a show on ’til I know they like me (like me)
[IMAGINARY MONSTER, UNDER Chorus]
Breaking into little pieces
Trying to be strong and tough
[BOTH]
Like me, l-like me, but I know there's nobody like me
[MS. PEREZ]
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo
So we try to be more than enough
[MS. PEREZ]
Trying to be strong and tough
[IMAGINARY MONSTER]
Try to be something we're not
[MS. PEREZ]
Try to fit a different plot
Proving we're bold without causing a fuss
[IMAGINARY MONSTER]
We’re trying too hard to be us
[MS. PEREZ]
We're already more than enough
[BOTH]
In a world where no one wears disguises
We would all be free
But being divided is what was decided
So that's how it has to be
*Suddenly Ms. Perez starts glowing as she starts to float up and looks at the city*
But if we try to uncover what's real
[MS. PEREZ
I'm already strong and tough
[BOTH]
Put down our armor and shield
[MS. PEREZ]
Gonna fit the plot I've got
[BOTH]
And just remember, you're never alone
If the back that you've got is your own
[MS. PEREZ]
Gotta be unique but gotta blend in (trying too hard to be us)
Hide my inner geek and keep pretendin'
Gotta keep 'em laughin'(trying too hard to be us)
Though I'm only half in
Gotta put a show on 'til I know they like me
*Then in a shocking moment, Ms. Perez’s clothes turns into her own Ultra Opposites form.*
No more trying too hard to be me
*Mia blushes lovingly*
'Cause that's one thing it's easy to be
Take the trying away and be free
'Cause it's their turn to try to see me
After she finishes singing, Ms. Perez, or whoever is she is now, looks around her outfit in surprise and shock while Mia comes up to her.
Mia: Woah. You look...beautiful...
Ms. Perez blushes then the other Ultra Opposites came in while looking for Solar Flare.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Ladies! We need to find Solar…. Huh?
Miss Frankie/Shadow Lady: No way…
Ms. Perez laughs and does a twirl.
Jesse/Electra: Ms. Perez?
Korvo/The Legendary Super Shlorpian: What happened to you?!
Ms. Perez: Ms. Perez is gone. I'm Shout Out now!
Ms. Perez does her own superhero form as the other adults gasp in joy and then embrace her. Agent Red, Legendary Super Shlorpian, Master and Lady Roseus watch as they smile.
Jesse/Electra: Holy shit! One of our best teachers in the world is now one of us?! This is so cool!
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Thanks
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: We can celebrate later. Right now we have to find Terry!
Lady Super Shlorpian uses her super sense and hears Mundane Solar Flare sobbing.
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: Oh dear… I found him… and he is so heartbroken…
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Oh no… poor Terry…
Jesse/Electra: Oh no...
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Oh my poor Terry… I can’t believe Chloe said something horrible like that… I would never want to say that to you guys…
Rest Of the Ultra Opposites: touched by the bottom of their hearts Aaaawww.
Nova/Lady Roseus: Come on. Let’s go comfort him…
The rest of the Ultra Opposites finds Mundane Solar Flare lying down, curled up while sobbing in his arms as they go up to him in concern and sadness.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry?
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Go away.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Oh Terry.
Mundane Solar Flare looks at his friends and family in sadness as he continues sobbing.
Sherbet/Violet: Are you okay?
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: I’m sorry guys… Chloe is right… it’s all my fault…
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian gasps.
Cherie/Agent Red: Oh Terry.
Principal Cooke/Super Cooke: No…
Kevin/The Flamethrower: Don’t blame yourself…
Jesse/Electra: Yeah. You were just trying to help…
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: But I'm a fuck-up.
Montez/The Master: Of course not.
Yumyulack/Psylock: That’s bullshit!
Nova/Lady Roseus: Yeah.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: You're not a fuck-up.
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Yeah. You're just trying too hard to be you.
Mundane Solar Flare looks at his husband weeping while Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian holds him and brings him close to him.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Shh. It’s okay my darling. We’re all here for you. Shh.
Mundane Solar Flare stops sobbing and hugs his husband while sighing lovingly.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: You know, you're very warm, Korvy.
Miss Frankie/Shadow Lady: We’re sorry Chloe said that about us. But you are not a fuck up
Principal Cooke/Super Cooke: Yeah! You were the one who creates the Ultra Opposites and brought us together! I mean look at the past stuff you have done when you became Solar Flare!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Like what?!
Montez/The Master: You saved me from Ophelia and brought peace to the Wall that freed us!
Mundane Solar Flare thinks about when he first became Solar Flare.
Yumyulack/Psylock: You stood up to that evil empress when Jesse and I were in danger with brave courage
Miss Frankie/Shadow Lady: You helped show me the light!
Nova/Lady Roseus: You even stood up to pirate when Jesse was in danger!
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: You even risk your life to save Korvo form Brian out of the love for him in your heart!
Daryl/Dark Matter: You were our inspiration Terry.
Mundane Solar Flare smiles.
Jaime/Firey: We believe in you dude.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: And Terry, we will never leave you. Ever. Because, we will always love you
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: cries with happiness Come here, Korvy!
The two superhero monster alien husbands kiss while the others hug him. Then, Mundane Solar Flare notice Shout Out
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Ms. Perez?
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Hey Terry.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: You’re an Ultra Opposites now?
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: giggles Yep. What do you think?
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: You look great!
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Thanks.
Then, the gang looks up at the sky in determination.
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: You guys, I don’t know about you but we got a town to save!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Let's kick some ass.
Miss Frankie/Shadow Lady: Fuck yeah! Mia, come with us! This is your chance
Mia: Really? You mean it?
Jesse/Electra: Of course!
Janice/Master Smasher: H’no I think you do great y’know!
Mia smiles tearfully.
Mia: hugs Mundane Solar Flare Thank you…
Mundane Solar Flare smiles and hugs back.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Come on Ultra Opposites! Let’s go save our town!
And with that, the heroes take off to save the day while Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian helps carry Mia. Back with Princess Chloe, she is sobbing over what she has done and said, as well as being mean to the Ultra Opposites.
Princess Chloe: tearfully What have I done? I ruined everything! There’s no chance to save the planets now… it’s all my fault…
Suddenly, Ophelia appears
Ophelia: Got ya!
Princess Chloe screams. Ophelia grabs the princess and traps her in the cage.
Ophelia: You’re mine now.
Princess Chloe: No no…
Back with the Ultra Opposites, Psylock looks at Lady Super Shlorpian.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Hey Aunt Janiz?
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: Yes?
Yumyulack/Psylock: Since when did you receive your own suit?
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: I honestly don’t know but…it feels nice to be able to have one.
Flashback shows Janiz looking out the window as she sees Terry leave to rescue Korvo. Suddenly, an icy pink orb piece makes its way as it merges with Janiz who wasn’t looking. As Janiz feels the sensation, she suddenly develop ice pink breath as she gasp. She then grows determined and leaves while the others follow her. The flashback ends as Janiz smiles.
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: But I felt like something woke in me, like another orb piece
Lady Super Shlorpian wipes away a tears. Suddenly, a reference to the first Incredibles movie, Cherie gets a phone call from Pezlie’s babysitter.
Cherie/Agent Red: Hello?
Baby sister: voicemail Hi this is Amy. I want you to know that you baby is in good hands, she has special needs. I’m so glad you in that replacement and…
Cherie/Agent Red: Replacement?! I didn’t call for a replacement!
Sherbet/Violet: What’s wrong, Agent Red?
Cherie/Agent Red: It’s Pezile’s babysitter.
Montez/The Master: What did she say?
Cherie/Agent Red: Something about a replacement.
Agent Red then gasp. Later, the Ultra Opposites raced to Cherie’s house where they gasp upon seeing Pezlie held captive by Ophelia and Robo Korvo.
Cherie/Agent Red: Pezlie! No!
Solar Flare notices Robo Korvo.
Ophelia: Shh. The baby’s sleeping…
Terry/Solar Flare: Oh my god! You made an evil robotic version of my husband?! That’s fucking sick! Nobody messes with the Shlorpian I loved and married!
Legendary Super Shlorpian blushes.
Cherie/Agent Red: Give me back my daughter you bitch!
Ophelia: Make me.
Suddenly, Pezlie wakes up and starting crying as tears fall down her eyes, and suddenly, Ophelia’s skin burns as she screams and lets go of Pezlie. Lady Super Shlorpian then turns into her Super Shlorpian form and grabs Pezlie.
Super Shlorpian Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: Got ya!
Pezlie giggles but suddenly starts glowing tickle me pink as she coos. Then, after the glow fades, Pezlie received her own super suit as Agent Red catches her.
Cherie/Agent Red: Pezlie?
Pezlie/???: giggles Mama! Mama!
Terry/Solar Flare: Oh my God! She’s adorable!
Jesse/Electra: D’aw, an Ultra Opposites baby….
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: What should her superhero name be?
Cherie/Agent Red: How about La Oscuridad? Because, of her painful tears that burns people’s skin off?
Pezlie, now La Oscuridad, does her cute superhero baby pose as she giggles. Then, Ophelia wakes up and growls.
Jesse/Electra: That could work!
Ophelia: It’s too late Opposites! I have Princess Chloe locked up! Fight me and I will release her!
Terry/Solar Flare: Oh we fucking will!
As Ophelia and Robo Korvo flies off, the heroes nod at each other as they make a resolve.
Terry/Solar Flare: You know what? Sure Chloe made mistakes, but we should still forgive her!
Montez/The Master: I agree!
Principal Cooke/Super Cooke: I agree. Like Korvo said, heroes always make mistakes and get on each other’s nerves. But they always make up
Legendary Super Shlorpian smiles.
Darcy/Miss Darcina: Good point! It would be hard for a hero to give up anyway.
Miss Frankie/Shadow Lady: No one serves to be left out in the cold cruel world. Chloe may have hurted us, but we should still forgive her. Let’s go save her guys!
Jesse/Electra: Yay!
Rest of the Ultra Opposites: Alright! Let’s do this! Let’s go do the right thing! Let’s kick some fucking ass! We go this! Woo-hoo! We can do this guys! Yay!
Terry/Solar Flare: You did good, Korv.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Thanks dear. Now let’s go save the world!
We then cut to Ophelia’s fortress.
Ophelia: It’s too late Princess… I once had friendship… but I was turned away after I realized I was unfit to rule… let’s face it.. you abandoned them… you’re just like me… a princess… all alone… no power.. face it princess… friendship has failed you…
Princess Chloe: Why are you doing this?
Ophelia: For revenge. As here to the throne, I wouldn’t stand a chance. I knew I preferable of course but sadly that went to Sabine. Then I heard about the cosmic and decide to take it. But, then the four aliens beat me to it.
Cue the song Open Up Your Eyes:
[Ophelia]
It's time you learned a lesson
It's time that you understand
Don't ever count on anybody else In this or any other land
I once hoped for friendship
To find a place among my kind
But those were the childish wishes
Of someone who was blind
Open up your eyes!
See the world from where I stand!
Me, among the mighty...
You caged at my command...
Open up your eyes!
Give up your sweet fantasy land!
It's time to grow up and get wise
Come, now, little one
Open up your eyes
We all start out the same
With simple naïve trust
Shielded from the many ways
That life's not fair or just
But then there comes a moment
A simple truth that you must face
If you depend on others
You'll never find your place
And as you take that first step
Upon a path that's all your own
You see it all so clearly
The best way to survive is all alone
Open up your eyes!
See the world from where I stand!
Me, among the mighty...
You caged at my command...
Open up your eyes!
And behold the faded lights!
It's time to grow up and get wise
Come, now, little one Open up your eyes!
Open up your eyes!
The song ends as Princess Chloe finally realize how horrible she has treated the Ultra Opposites.
Ophelia: It’s too late now… no heroes to help you… no queen to save you… face it princess… these heroes have failed you…
Terry/Solar Flare: Hold it right there!
Princess Chloe and Ophelia gasp upon seeing the Ultra Opposites and Mia.
Princess Chloe: Ultra Opposites!
Ophelia: And Perez?!
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: It’s Shout Out!
Ophelia: Oh, whatever! Robo Korvo, demolish them!
Robo Korvo nods and get into a fighting stance. The heroes nod at each other as they get ready to fight.
Terry/Solar Flare: eyes glow orange Let’s go!
Ophelia: What the?!
Solar Flare’s skin turns black as he grows muscular. He then grows bigger as his suits and boots rip apart into pieces. Finally, Solar Flare finishes turning into his Mundane form as he roars. Legendary Super Shlorpian blushes and grows horny because of Mundane Solar Flare.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Damn honey. You have so turned on right now…
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Wow! I had no idea Terry can do that!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Aw, thanks babe.
Yumyulack/Psylock: What the fuck are we waiting here for?! Let’s go kick some ass! Guys, roll out!
All: Yeah!
The heroes then get into a big fight with Ophelia. Lady Roseus uses her gift powers that made confetti. Then, Miss Darcina pummels the guards with her strength while Super Shlorpian Lady Super Shlorpian uses her ice powers to slow the guards down
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Good job, sis!
Super Shlorpian Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: Thanks bro! Agent Red, La Oscuridad, Flamethrower, Violet and Master! Now!
Cherie/Agent Red: You got it!
Agent Red uses her martial arts, that kicks the guards towards La Oscuridad who cries out her painful tears, then Flamethrower blows fire on the guards’ ass, Violet changes colors to confused the guards and kicks them to Master, who uses his psychotic powers to blast tjem away. Agent Red hugs La Oscuridad in joy!
Cherie/Agent Red: D’aw, Pezlie’s first bad guy!
Pezlie/La Oscuridad: giggling
Ophelia: Stop fucking sucking up to that kid!
Shadow Lady throws her weaponry at the guard as they duck but then got blast by the brai waves caused by Psylock and Dark Matter and then they kiss. The guards then got shoot by Super Cooke’s laser eyes. Firey uses his fire powers to burn the floor which made the guards fell as they get by Electra’s electric wrecking ball.
Jesse/Electra: You just got Electra’d!
Ultra Man and Master Smasher then combine their strength powers and throws a beak at the guards. Master Smasher gives Ultra Man a kiss on the cheek as he blushes. The guards then look up and see Shout Out standing near them.
Guard: Uh, what can she do?
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: This!
Shout Out uses her screaming powers that blast the guards away. But, Robo Korvo is still standing.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Bring it on you knock off!
Robo Korvo: Must eliminate.
Legendary Super Shlorpian turns into his Super Shlorpian form as he starts to fight with Robo Korvo. Mia then sees the keys and sneaks past Ophelia as she secretly grabs the keys and unlocks the cage Princess Chloe is in.
Mia: Hold on.
Princess Chloe: Thank you.
Suddenly, Ophelia shoots a ball at Mia, but Mia uses her new powers and shoots a beam that destroys Ophelia’s fireball.
Ophelia: Damn it!
Suddenly, Mia starts glowing neon green as it consumes her, as the light fades, a mysterious new hero appears.
Mia/???: Look out Ophelia! You just met… Shine Light!
Shout Out blushes. Mia, now an Ultra Opposites named Shine Light does her own pose as she smiles in joy.
Cherie/Agent Red: No way? Mia?! Is that you?!
Nova/Lady Roseus: You look amazing!
Mia/Shine Light: Thanks. So, Shout Out, what do ya think?
Ms. Perez/Shout Out: Wow, I think you’re amazing just the way you are. That’s why the neon green orb piece chose you because of your kindness towards others.
Shine Light giggles. Then the rest of the Ultra Opposites notices Legendary Super Shlorpian struggling to defeat Robo Korvo.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Shit! Korvo needs our help!
Mia/Shout Out: Say no more! Let’s help him guys! But first, Solar Flare, go help your husband before you give us the signal!
Mundane Solar Flare nods and runs up to help his husband, who is growing frustrated by his ice breath reflects off of Robo Korvo’s skin.
Robo Korvo: Face it! Ice powers inferior!
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian growls
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: No. I am not giving up! You may be powerful than me, but at least I got friends and family to help me out! uses his super Shlorpian strength then enraged Robo Korvo who grabs him by the neck which starts enraging Legendary Super Shlorpian into going savage
Super Shlorpian Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: Oh no! Stay back! If a Shlorpian gets enraged enough, he or she goes savage!
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian roars loudly.
Jesse/Electra: Oh no! We have to help Korvo!
Mundane Solar Flare growls
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: How dare he makes my Korvy go savage! I got this!
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian snarls as his savage instincts take in.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Korvo, no!
Legendary Super Shlorpain snarls but luckily Psylock and Master manage to make Robo Korvo power down by destroying the brain piece in him as the others cheer. However Legendary Super Shlorpian is still going savage.
Super Shlorpian Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpain: Oh no! Korvo! We have to help him before he goes out of control!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Hey, Korvo?
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian snarls at Mundane Solar Flare, who begins to feel a connection to this as he remembers the time he lost control because of his fears of hurting Korvo. Then, Mundane Solar Flare, for the first time, will full control, know what to do now!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: I got this.
Mundane Solar Flare bravely heads towards his Super Shlorpian husband and suddenly pummels him, but it was in a romantic embrace as Super Shlorpian L.S.S. shed tears of rage in his eyes. Mundane Solar Flare grabs his husband by the shoulders and gets ready to kiss him. Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian then starts whimpering in tears as Mundane Solar Flare gasp and soothes his husband’s face.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: It’s okay. It’s okay. Would a kiss make you feel better?
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian starts weeping as Mundane Solar Flare rubs his sweetheart’s back softly, as he comforts his overwhelmed husband.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry…I love you.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: And I love you too Korvy, I always will…
The two monster alien husbands kiss as the others cheer.
Ophelia: No! This isn’t over Ultra Opposites! I’ll get you yet!
Jesse/Electra: We’d like to see you try!
Cherie/Agent Red: grinning with an idea Pezlie, sick ‘em!
La Oscuridad coos and pounces on Ophelia.
Ophelia: Wait! What are you-
La Oscuridad cries a painful blast of tears as Ophelia gets blown away screaming.
Ophelia: CURSE YOOOOOOOOUUUUUU!
Ultra Opposites: Alright La Orscuridad! What a brave baby! Mommy’s little hero! What a cutie! Yay Pezlie!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Well, how about that?
Cherie/Agent Red: Come here! Mommy is so proud of you! kiss La Oscuridad on the forehead
La Oscuridad giggles. Then, Princess Chloe remorsefully walks towards the heroes.
Princess Chloe: Look. I’m sorry. I was wrong to-
Terry/Solar Flare: Chloe, I don't want to hear it. puts his hand on Chloe’s shoulder before pulling her into a tight hug I'm sorry too. Even princesses mess up sometimes, I don't know what came over us but we never should've let that argument get so bad...
Princess Chloe: sighs in relief I don't even know why I said we’d be better off without heroes considering you're the defenders of Earth, will all of you ever forgive me?
The Ultra Opposites: Sure! Why not! I guess I’m sorry. All is forgiven.
Jesse/Electra: But on one condition, learn to trust others and don't ever say stuff like that again, that really hurt our feelings.
Princess Chloe: I know. I’m so sorry.
Jesse/Electra: It’s okay. Now let’s go save our queen…
Back at the festival, it is back on the Queen is unpetrified, all is forgiven when Princess Chloe admit the truth over what happens, Romelle apologizes to our heroes. And best of all, peace has been restored for the four planets. Everyone is celebrating while the Ultra Opposites watch from below.
Jesse/Electra: So what now? Should we go to the festival?
Terry/Solar Flare: Yeah. But right now, I am so happy that everything is back to normal. Except with Ophelia being back. Yeesh.
Montez/The Master: Yeah. But we’ll be ready when she comes back. Right guys?
Rest of the Ultra Opposites: Right!
The Ultra Opposites murmur in agreement. Legendary Super Shlorpian, however is looking down sadly, feeling awful for nearly losing his sanity.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpain: I’m so sorry I almost went out of control back there. I don’t know what came over me…
Terry/Solar Flare: Korv, it’s okay. Maybe dancing at the festival tonight will make you feel better.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: smiling through tears of joy I would love that my darling…
The two alien husbands kiss. We then cut to the night of the festival where Christina Aguilera is about to perform Rainbow from the MLP Movie:
[Christina Aguilera]
I know you, you're a special one
Some see crazy where I see love
You fall so low but shoot so high
Big dreamers shoot for open sky
So much life in those open eyes
So much depth, you look for the light
But when your wounds open, you will cry
You'll cry out now and you'll question why
Human Terry: Sure is beautiful
Human Korvo: Yes it is. kiss Human Terry on the lips
Human Yumyulack gags.
[Christina Aguilera]
I can see a rainbow
In your tears as they fall on down
I can see your soul grow
Through the pain as they hit the ground
I can see a rainbow
In your tears as the sun comes out
As the sun comes out
Human Terry: Wanna dance, Korv?
Human Korvo nods as the two husbands get in a romantic slow dance. Then, the family and their friends watches as fireworks appear through the sky.

MCU Phase 4 and 5: What the Multiverse Means for the Future of Marvel Movies and TV
https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
This article contains Loki spoilers and potential spoilers for the wider MCU.
The ending of the Loki season finale made one pretty substantial change to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The introduction of a full multiverse, caused by Sylvie killing He Who Remains, is an enormous shift in the cosmogony of the MCU. And it opens up some fascinating story possibilities for Marvel’s film heroes. So what does the introduction of a full, unlimited multiverse mean for the future of the MCU?
Hopefully, everything. Literally.
There are obvious near-term implications to Loki’s finale. It answered questions that Spider-Man: No Way Home (with its purported multiversal Sinister Six) and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness asked back when Loki first premiered. Specifically: “What do you mean there’s only one universe?”
The beauty of time travel is that now, there is and has always been a full multiverse in the context of the MCU. Because whatever Kang War happened far in Loki’s subjective past (because the timelines were left to run wild when Sophie killed He Who Remains), the entire history of the MCU is now potentially subject to retcons as necessary. So the strong implication from Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse that that movie and all its various spider-people existed on Earths parallel to Tom Holland’s MCU can now be considered accurate, even though the movie came out years before Loki was even a twinkle in Kevin Feige’s master MCU spreadsheet.
Time travel is a trip, man. It’s also beautiful. Literally anything is possible now.
What Does the MCU Multiverse Mean for Marvel TV?
This sort of thing happens all the time in comics. The slang is “retcon,” comics-speak for retroactive continuity, where creators reach into their characters’ pasts to change something that impacts their present.
Loki’s infinite multiverse sets up the entirety of Marvel history for any number of retcons that the folks in charge might deem necessary. It allows current MCU casts and crews to cherry pick what they liked from old MCU projects and fold them into this new normal. All those times Agents of SHIELD didn’t quite line up with what the movies were doing? The show was on an alternate Earth! Want Ghost Rider back without the TV baggage? Blame it on a Kang!
And grabbing the stuff that worked from old projects means porting in the good actors, too. That means people like J.K. Simmons, the Platonic ideal of J. Jonah Jameson, can continue playing the role across from three different Spider-Men, or Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio can show up as Daredevil and Kingpin in Spider-Man: No Way Home while Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings nukes Netflix’s Iron Fist continuity from orbit. Wondering how Ms. Marvel could potentially deal with concepts from the Inhumans without ever mentioning that disastrous TV show? Now we know.
Could the MCU Multiverse Retcon Marvel Movies?
This same ability to pick and choose the continuity most appropriate for the story applies to decisions the movies made, too. A full multiverse lets future filmmakers bring back Chris Evans as Captain America or Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow (OK…maybe not ScarJo) without burdening the MCU with yet another time paradox. As far as we’re concerned, pre-Marvel Studios curiosities like all those crazy old live action Marvel TV shows or Howard the Duck or Dolph Lundgren’s take on The Punisher are now officially canon somewhere within the multiverse.
Phil Coulson could show up in Phase 6 leading a Squadron Supreme (just like in the comics), out for vengeance against the Avengers because they let his Earth 20085 brother die. Hell, if they really wanted to get dirty, Nick Fury could hire Deadpool to kill Coulson in retaliation, like in the comics. Wait, that was Secret Empire,wasn’t it? Never mind, don’t do that.
Anyway, you get the idea.
The possibilities are as infinite as the imaginations of the writers, limited only by Kevin Feige’s patience/sense of humor. Don’t expect anything too crazy: the time travel solution in Avengers: Endgame was wild, but before Loki, that was far and away the most ridiculous comic book science the MCU had trafficked in. Typical MCU adaptations include much more modest nods to comics’ wackier elements – Eternals pending – like secret societies that had taken over SHIELD or Kurt Russell being Chris Pratt’s dad. So that ultra-maxi series that starts out a movie, moves into a TV show, has a comic tie in that directly crosses over with the show, and wraps up in Avengers 6 that we’re all hoping will come to pass is probably not on the horizon.
The Crisis on Infinite Earths Problem
An infinite multiverse doesn’t just mean possibility. It has a trap built in, too. The biggest multiverse story of all time, probably the one that set the template for future interactions with the concept, was DC Comics’ Crisis on Infinite Earths. That book set the standard for multiversal destruction, collapsing DC’s infinite comics timelines down to one single Earth and one single timeline. Gone were the separate Earths for the modern Justice League and the World War II Justice Society, replaced by one, unified timeline. And while the comic itself was a masterpiece, miraculously balanced by Marv Wolfman and beautifully drawn by George Perez; what it wrought on the DCU was 30 years of explainers why the Green Lantern of World War II still looked 35, or why Batman has only been operating for five years but went through six Robins in that time.
The cautionary tale here is one of inward looking stories versus expansionary choices. Post-Crisis DC retcons were about fixing problems the writers and editors perceived with the new timeline, and not about telling the best story they could with the characters and continuity they had. This is an easy trap for a new, expanded (but not all the way expanded) MCU to fall into. There are key pieces of the comics that haven’t been ported to the films yet.
The Fantastic Four
The temptation is likely huge to use this new, beautiful, infinite multiverse to introduce the Fantastic Four and the X-Men to the MCU. That’s probably half of a good idea.
The cosmogony of the multiverse is ingrained in who the Fantastic Four are. Their story begins as explorers of the unknown – Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Ben Grimm, and Johnny Storm are bombarded with cosmic radiation after an unauthorized space launch. That origin is very of the time when they were created, and would probably hit different now when the only unauthorized space launches are led by giant assholes. So why not take a page from the end of Secret Wars and have them get their powers exploring the new multiverse? It makes so much sense to do it that way that one is almost suspicious of this entire retcon. But that doesn’t make it any less cool.
The X-Men in the MCU
While introducing the Fantastic Four to the MCU by saying they’ve been off exploring the multiverse would make a certain elegant sense, if Marvel tried to introduce the X-Men that way, it would be hugely problematic.
The core concept of the X-Men is the mutant metaphor, the idea that mutants are hated and feared because of who they are. On a completely superficial level, this is nonsense: what’s the difference between Cyclops’ eye blasts and Captain Marvel zapping Kree ships with fist beams? Why are mutants singled out for scorn and bigotry when someone like Doctor Strange has MUCH more terrifying abilities?
The difference is the idea that mutants are humanity’s destiny. There’s no concern that the majority baseline human population is going to someday be replaced by handsome super-soldiers or radioactive Catholic lawyers. But that genetic distinction – the idea that Magneto and Apocalypse and Pixie and Skids all share a distinct identity, while Captain America and Daredevil and Dr. Druid and Tigra do not – creates tension that allows real world out groups to superimpose their struggles onto X-Men comics and makes them infinitely relatable.
As superficially attractive as the idea of plopping the mutants on their own parallel Earth might be (and trust me, this definitely seems like the simplest justification for keeping Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and Ryan Reynolds’s Deadpool in the MCU while jettisoning anything else that is less appealing for audiences or studio execs), putting the mutants on their own separate Earth strips that struggle from the story and makes them just another cape crew.
Worse, using the multiverse as justification that suddenly mutants are here because they came from a parallel timeline disrespects the marginalized people who identify with the X-Men who, like left-handed people, have been here the whole time. Whether society noticed or not.
The Sony Spider-Man Problem
What keeps me up at night about the new Marvel multiverse is the Spider-Man family. The Marvel/Sony relationship has always been…complicated.
cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });
While the new multiverse provides creators with endless storytelling opportunities that could expand the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it also sets up an easy out for the studios to separate the Spider-Man movies from the rest of the MCU. Cleaving off the Spider-family movies wouldn’t be great – I don’t need to be reminded of complicated business deals while I’m at the movies. Dedicating all of a future Spidey movie to explaining why Pete isn’t in the master MCU and can’t talk about Iron Man anymore would almost certainly be a nightmare.
But these inward-looking continuity fixes are the types of stories that Marvel, on page and on screen, has generally avoided (before you jump in the comments to shout “CLONE SAGA” please take into account how much work “generally” is doing in this sentence) with its big multiverse stories. Hopefully they’ll keep making those wise decisions going forward.

(Icarus Ch. 2) - Rookie Mistakes
Pairing: Ethan Ramsey x F! MC (Olivia Anika Cohen)
Word count: 3.1k words
A/N: ANGST
Warning: Language, mentions of small character death, war and violence.
Disclaimer: PB owns characters. There’s lots of Grey’s Anatomy references with some dialogue borrowed from Open Heart.
Tag list: @deliciouslydeafeningstarlight @drethanramslay @ohramsey @theeccentricbibliophile @justanotherrookie @kaavyaethanramsey @batgirlassociationofgothamcity @tyrilstarfury @lilypills @juneiswriting @fleur-de-jasmin-fdj @mvalentine @sanchita012 @choicesstan1 @junggoku @aylamwrites @whatsamottowithyou @utterlyinevitable @openheart12
Let me know if you’d like to be added or removed.
Song: 21 Guns by Green Day.
They all gathered at a nearby bar, Donahue’s to celebrate surviving their first week in the university. It was dingy and dim but completely packed.
By the time Olivia made it to the bar, the rest of the gang was already packed into a corner booth a little too small for them.
Before Olivia could slide into the booth, a very drunk Bryce held up a hand to stop her.
“Halt traveler! You must answer our riddle to take a seat.”
Olivia rolled her eyes at his ridiculousness but decided to roll with it.
“Here we go…”
“One of us only tells the truth. The other only tells lies.” Bryce said, gesturing to himself and Aurora.
“Jesus Christ, Bryce, I said I was sorry!”, Aurora said.
Olivia looked amused but puzzled. She looked over to Jackie for an explanation.
Jackie explained that Bryce and Elijah had had a drinking competition and Aurora had declared Elijah the winner.
Olivia chuckled as she sat down.
“Quick! There’s still sixty-seven seconds left in happy hour!”, Sienna said with urgency in her voice.
“Who cares? We’re all going to have a hundred grand in debt anyway.” Elijah retorted.
“Relax Sienna, I put in quite a few orders before the buzzer.” Jackie winked at her.
The waitress brought over a tray lined with tequila shots filled to the brim.
“You want to start with tequila?”, Aurora asked, eyebrows raised.
“Start, finish and everything in between”, Liv said.
Jackie laughed. “A woman after my own heart.”
They all clinked glasses and threw back the shots. The smooth liquid burned as it traveled down her throat.
“Whoa.”
“Again”, Jackie said as she flagged down the waitress for another round.
Bryce interjected. “No, let me.”
He got up and walked to the bar. Ten minutes later, he arrived with a tray lined up with mysterious blue colored concoctions.
“I call this Early Onset Alzheimer’s because you won’t remember a thing in the morning if you drink this.” He grinned as he handed the drinks out.
They all took a sip each only to set it back down.
“Yeah, I’m going to switch back to tequila.” Olivia said.
She was met with laughter and “me too’s” from the rest of the gang.
***
The door swung open as Ethan and Tobias walked into the bar. They took a look at the dark, packed place as Ethan asked Tobias, “Remind me again why I agreed to this...”
“Because you are a great friend, Ethan… and I agreed to buy you drinks.”
“What are you waiting for then, Carrick?” Ethan said as they took a seat near the counter.
Tobias waved the bartender over.
“Two gin and tonics.”
“What, are you just learning to drink? Make it two scotches, neat.”
Tobias was about to respond when they heard peals of laughter coming from a corner booth.
Ethan looked over to the booth only to see her face once again. Tobias watched as Ethan’s face took on an irritated expression which seemed focused on one person in particular. When he saw the girl approach the bar, his eyes lit up with an idea.
She walked up and ordered a tray of tequila shots. As she waited for her order, Tobias slid onto the stool closest to her.
“Hey, I think I’ve seen you around campus. I’m Tobias. The grumpy guy over there is Ethan.”, he said as he held out his hand.
Olivia smiled at Tobias and shook his hand. She gave Ethan a tiny nod to which he responded with one of his own.
“Olivia Cohen.”
She saw Ethan look up slightly as though he was registering her name.
“Nice to meet you. Can I get you a drink?”, Tobias asked.
Just then, the bartender slid over a tray of shots, answering his question.
She smiled and he gave her an understanding nod.
As she started to move back to the booth, he called out to her.
“I saw you in a few of our classes. It wouldn’t hurt to have a friendly face that's not Mr. Grumpy over here. You could sit with us...?” He trailed off with a questioning look.
Ethan discreetly rolled his eyes but Olivia glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. Somehow, the fact that their friendship would annoy Ethan made it all the more easier for her to agree.
“I don’t see why not, considering my friends have different schedules. I guess I’ll see you there. Tobias. Ethan.”
As she walked away, Tobias turned towards Ethan only to be greeted with a glare.
“What? I told you we need new friends. I don’t see the problem. She seems nice.”
Ethan shook his head. He did not like where this was going.
***
It was late.
They were in no position to drive. Olivia pulled out her phone to call them a cab.
Her friends all piled into a cab which left no space for herself and Sienna. She waved them on and tried to call another cab. Her phone had chosen an excellent moment to die.
“Fuck!” She threw the phone back into her purse.
Tobias and Ethan happened to be leaving at the time and Tobias offered to share a cab. Olivia seemed uncertain but eventually agreed.
Tobias stepped away to call them a cab.
Suddenly, she heard a loud noise like a gunshot ripping through the air. On instinct, she fell to the ground and tightly shut her eyes. Her mind started flipping through memories and it put her right back onto the battlefield.
She opened her mouth but no words came out, only whispers. “No…no…please, no.”
She heard clear gunshots ring through the air as people dropped like flies on both sides. She touched her arm and pulled away, only to find it slick with blood.
She felt strong hands grab her arm and the touch wrenched her away from her memories, back to the present. She opened her eyes to see his face. This time the concern evident on his face as he made no attempts to hide it.
“Olivia, are you okay?” Ethan asked softly.
“What happened?” She asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
“A car backfired.”
He saw a distant gaze in her eyes. “Are you sure you’re okay?”
She focused her eyes on him and nodded firmly. He decided not to press further.
Sienna got her into the cab and the rest of the ride passed in silence.
***
The next day…
Ethan entered the room only to find Tobias and Olivia already seated together, talking and laughing. A wave of jealousy passed over him which, to him, was completely unprecedented. The strangest part was that he wasn’t sure if his jealousy was towards Olivia for monopolizing his best friend or towards Tobias for being the one laughing with Olivia.
He broke out of his thoughts as he saw Tobias wave him over.
He took a seat near Tobias and leaned over to him.
“So you weren’t kidding about sitting with her?”
“Be nice, Ethan. She’s very funny. I bet you both would get along, if you just gave it a shot.”
“Oh, I’m sure”, Ethan thought to himself.
Two hours into the lecture, the professor seemed to have completely ditched the topic at hand and was focused on his personal exploits.
Olivia looked around the room trying to find ways to stay awake.
She looked over at Tobias who seemed to be…sleeping?
Fighting her laughter, she leaned over to look at Ethan whose gaze never faltered from the professor.
Her eyes finally settled on the ceiling fan. It was almost as though all other sounds had been muted except the whirring of the fan. She felt her mind wander and before she knew it, she was back on the battlefield.
Shouting all around her was drowned out by the loud mechanical whirring of the helicopter. It positioned itself to deliver medical supplies and food for the soldiers. The sand whirled around, forcing her to cover her eyes. Suddenly, she heard a deafening noise and shrapnel flew all around her. It opened up gashes on her arms as she threw them up to protect herself. The helicopter had been shot down. She saw as it came crashing down and with it their hopes of survival. She saw her comrade and friend, Mia Perez shouting for help to patch up one of the injured soldiers but her legs were frozen in place.
“Olivia.”
“Olivia!”
“OLIVIA!”
Beads of sweat clung to her forehead. She felt a hand on her shoulder as her visions dissolved. She faced Tobias who gestured towards the front of the class.
The professor looked at her expectantly.
“I’m sorry. Could you repeat the question please?” Olivia asked.
“What is histology? You’re sitting in a histology lecture. You should be able to answer that.” The professor said with an exasperated sigh.
Olivia struggled to bring her focus back to the present.
Ethan noticed her struggling. He remembered last night’s events and quickly cut in. “Sir, may I?”
The professor gave him a begrudging nod.
“Sit down, Rookie.” He whispered to Olivia.
“Histology is-” He began but was quickly interrupted as her voice rang out clearly.
“Histology is the study of the micro anatomy of cells, tissues, and organs as seen through a microscope. It examines the correlation between structure and function.” Olivia said with conviction.
The professor nodded. “Eyes on me during the class, Ms. Cohen.”
“Understood, sir.”
Olivia thanked Tobias for the timely wake-up call and shared a private smile with Ethan.
***
In the afternoon, the mess hall started to fill up with students.
“Hey Liv! Saved you a seat or five. Take your pick.” Bryce gestured at the huge table as she approached.
“Oh good. I thought I was going to have to answer ‘a riddle’ again.” She smirked at Bryce.
She looked over and saw Tobias and Ethan looking around in search of a free table.
“Gimme a sec, guys.”
She walked over to them. “Hey guys, would you like to sit with us? We have plenty of room. Besides, I thought all my friends should finally meet.” She looked straight at Ethan. He shook his head with a small hint of a smile on his face.
“Lead the way!” Tobias said.
Everyone looked up as she approached with two people in tow.
“Everyone, meet Tobias Carrick and Ethan Ramsey. My two new best friends.” She laughed at the annoyance in Ethan’s face.
They sat down after all the introductions were made.
“So, did you follow my lead and fall asleep during the lecture?” Tobias asked jokingly.
Olivia hesitated and caught Ethan’s eye. Recognition flashed in his eyes.
“Har har…it’s amazing that someone actually managed to stay awake.” She gave Ethan a pointed look.
“Oh, Professor Hardman? Everyone sleeps in his classes. Don’t worry about it, Liv.” Bryce said getting nods of assent from the rest of the gang.
***
Towards the end of the day, Olivia and Ethan made their way to the histology lab. Attendance was optional so Tobias had decided to opt out. His exact words had been, “If I have to listen to Hardman drone on for another minute, I might stab him with a pair of forceps.”
They took their seats and saw the equipment laid out in front of them.
“Usually computer applications are used to analyze specimens in histology labs nowadays but today, we decided to go the old school way. Each one of you has been set up with your own microscope and blood sample. Let’s begin.” Professor Hardman began instructing the students.
Olivia took the blood sample in her gloved hands and was about to set it up in the microscope when a loud crash caused her to spill the blood sample on her hands.
Her mind started spinning as she looked down at her bloody hands in horror. She was once again transported to the battlefield. She faced intermittent gunfire as she took her position behind steel enforced hideouts. To her left was Private Mia Perez, her best friend. The gunshots eventually halted and Mia smirked at her.
“Let’s smoke these suckers.”
Mia and Olivia stood up and opened fire on the other side.
As the gunshots from the other side started up again, they quickly took cover. “This won’t do. We need to get closer.” Mia said.
“Let’s go around and take them from the other side. They only have two privates stationed there.” Olivia said as they started moving.
They cornered the enemy from the back and Olivia took the shot. Mia looked around for a split second to see an enemy soldier hiding, rifle raised to take the shot at Olivia.
Before she could register what was happening, Olivia heard gunshots ring in the air. Mia’s body collided with her own as they both fell to the ground. Olivia touched her torso and found her clothes soaked in blood. She felt around but couldn’t seem to find the source of the bleeding. Her face paled as realization washed over her.
“No…NO! Mia!”
She rolled her over to find that the bullet had ripped through her best friend’s abdomen. She put her hands over the wound and applied pressure in an attempt to stop the bleeding but the look on Mia’s face said it all. There was nothing she could do.
Tears streamed down her face as she held her dying best friend in her arms.
“It’s alright, Livvy. We got them.” Mia whispered before her body went limp.
“Rookie…you alright?”
The words jerked her back to the present and she found Ethan looking her over. She felt fresh tears run down her face. She looked up to see the professor chewing out a student for breaking the apparatus which was the source of the sound that startled her.
She felt her emotions overwhelm her and she knew she was about to break down. She quickly excused herself under the pretext of cleaning up and ran into an abandoned lecture hall.
The tears now freely streamed down her face as images of her friend flashed in her eyes. She broke out of her trance when she felt someone sit down next to her. Ethan had also excused himself to look for her. She looked over and tried to school her features but fresh tears pricked her eyes. Ethan pulled her into a hug as she let the tears run down her face.
“Flashbacks, invasive memories, extreme physical reactions like sweating even under the cool breeze of a ceiling fan. Rookie, all this coupled with personal experience leads me to believe that you’re suffering from PTSD.”
“That obvious, huh?”
“Maybe I was just paying close attention.” Ethan gave her a small smile.
“You don’t have to tell me what happened-” Ethan started but was interrupted.
“I served in the Israeli military for two tours.” She paused before continuing.
“Long story short, there was an error in my judgement which led to my best friend taking a bullet for me. I held her as she died. She was an amazing soldier and an even better friend. Today is the anniversary of her death.” She choked up.
“That was a major factor which influenced my decision to be a doctor. I have harmed countless lives in the name of protecting my country but I can’t watch people die anymore and be able to do nothing about it.”
Her face strengthened with resolve. “I refuse to.”
“I’m so sorry for your loss. I know how it feels to be helpless and to blame yourself for their death. I did the same.”
"Right, you said you had personal experience. You don't have to share just because I did."
He silently handed her a handkerchief from his lab coat.
Bold letters stood out in black against the white background.
EJR.
She chuckled. “Monogrammed handkerchiefs? Really?”
“They were a gift from my mother.” He smiles as he reminisces.
He takes a moment to compose himself.
She sees him struggling to collect his thoughts and lays her hand on his, as a show of support. He interlaces their fingers, holding tight as he continues to speak.
“It was my 17th birthday. My father had taken me out to the bookstore and my mom made use of the opportunity to surprise me with my favorite funfetti cake but she realized that she didn’t have any sprinkles. She made a quick trip to the store but on the way back…she met with an accident and passed away.” His eyes sparkled with unshed tears.
“She seems like a lovely lady. I would have liked to meet her.”
Ethan regards her for a moment and slowly smiles. “I think she would have liked to meet you too.”
His ocean blue eyes met her amber ones. It was almost as though they were pulled together by an invisible force. Their faces were so close that he could see the light catching on her eyelashes. She leaned into him, their lips meeting softly at first. They pulled apart, just an inch to gaze at each other. His lips then came crashing down on hers. Her fingers gripped his hair, pulling him closer just as his arms encircled her waist. He kissed her with an intensity that made her cling to him.
A loud buzz from Olivia’s phone forced them to pull apart. She checked her phone and sighed.
“It’s Tobias. He’s asking where we are since Prof. Hardman’s class got over ten minutes ago. I think we’d better go.”
Ethan nodded and they both got up. Just as Olivia started walking, he grabbed her hand and turned her back toward himself. He kissed her again, slowly and deeply till another buzz, this time from Ethan’s phone forced them apart.
He checked his phone with a grimace. “He is very insistent on knowing where we are as I can only infer from the ungodly amount of question marks and emojis.”
Olivia took out her phone and tapped away before turning on her heel and walking out, leaving Ethan staring at his phone in confusion.
Rookie
5:47 pm
K imma dip.
“What in God’s name is she dipping?”
He looked it up on his phone.
Ethan made his way to the dorms only to find Olivia already standing next to Tobias.
“What took you so long?”, Tobias asked.
“I was dipping the lab.”, Ethan answered, clearly looking pleased with himself.
Tobias stared at him in confusion while Olivia couldn’t help but laugh at his miserably failed attempt.

To the Moon and Back
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 Part 7 Part 8 Part 9 Part 10
A/N: Chapter 11 Some of the dialogue in this chapter is in Spanish, I am in my 4th year of Spanish classes, the translations are in bold at the end of the paragraph they're in.
You and Spencer spent the entire day together. The two of you mainly just watched TV and movies, while cuddling on your couch. Your night was cut short when Spencer’s phone started to ring, “Hello, yeah Hotch,” he was being called in for a case. “Can I stay in DC for this one?” he nodded at whatever your boss was saying, “I’ll be there as soon as I can,” he stood up from the couch and headed toward your bedroom, “Can I bring Y/N? We’ll stay in the round table room,” you knew it was bad to eavesdrop, but it was so fun. Spencer and Hotch spoke for a little longer before he hung up.
“What was that?” you asked, trying to seem oblivious.
“We have a case,” he grabbed his coat from the stool in your kitchen. “Hotch said that you can come to quantico with me if you want,” he stood by the door and waited for you to respond to his offer.
“Thank god, I don’t think I could be stuck inside for any longer,” You stood up from the couch and went to your bedroom. You changed out of your pajamas and grabbed your briefcase. Spencer was still waiting by the door when you came out, “Do we need to stop at your place?” you grabbed your keys and headed for the door.
“No, can we stop for coffee though?”
You threw him the keys, “You’re driving,” he fumbled with the keys before opening the door for you and locking up your apartment. You two made the twenty minute drive to quantico in silence, other than when he stopped at a starbucks. He ordered a black coffee and you ordered some peach tea. It was almost midnight so the need for caffeine was understandable.
When you finally arrived at the office, you were greeted by Garcia, “oh my god! You’re here and you’re okay!” She gave you the biggest hug imaginable.
“It’s good to see you too,” you returned her hug, being careful to avoid your wound.
“Garcia, we’re heading to the round table room to work,” Reid put his hand in the small of your back and led you away from the smiling blonde. You knew she had seen the ‘more than friends’ vibe between the two of you.
You and Reid finally got to the conference room and set your stuff down, “Alright, the team went to New Mexico. Three men were found in the desert without their hands. 30-year-old Jesus Perez, 27-year-old Andres Flores, and 31-year-old Toni Moreno. They were all dehydrated and had wounds from a BB gun,” Reid started to read the case file that was left for him.
“They were all of Mexican descent, is it possible these are hate crimes?” you tried to connect the dots between the seemingly unconnected victims.
He had that look on his face, the one that told you he was thinking and questioning every word that came out of your mouth, “it’s possible, the town that they all lived in had many anti-mexican regimes.” It felt nice to contribute even if you couldn’t be with the team.
“Alright, that’s a start,” you grabbed your tea and stood up, “I’m going to talk with Garcia for a minute,” you started for the door.
“Do you need any help with the stairs?” Reid turned around from the board and stared at your stomach, looking for any sign to keep you with him.
“I’ll be fine,” you sent a smile his way and started your walk to Garcia’s office. “Hello, Garcia,” you opened her door and walked into her office.
“Good morning, Doctor,” She spun around in her chair with a smile on her face.
“Good morning, Garcia,” you entered her room and pulled up a chair next to her.
She spun around to face her computers, “What’s going on with you and boy genius?” She started to type on her keyboard.
“What do you mean?” You tried to play dumb, but she was smarter than that.
“I’ve seen the way he looks at you,” she turned and smiled at you.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” you learned how to lie from a young age, control your breathing, your fidgeting, and maintain eye contact.
“Ok,” she sighed and turned back to her computer. Her phone started to ring and she answered, “Hello, chocolate thunder.” You were taken aback by the strange nicknames they had for each other.
“Hello, baby girl,” Morgan’s voice came through the phone. “Can you look for connections between our victims and the United Constitutional Patriots.”
“Morgan, who are the United Constitutional Patriots?” you were trying to get enough information to bring back to Reid.
“They are a right wing militia group. They have been grabbing asylum seekers at the border before handing them over to border patrol,” he explained.
You nodded in recognition of the new information, “So you guys are thinking that someone from this group is killing the men?”
“Exactly, princess,” he acknowledged. “I’m glad you're ok.”
“So is Reid,” Garcia mumbled.
“What?” you and Morgan questioned in unison.
From Morgan’s side of the phone there was some sort of shouting, “Morgan what’s happening over there?” you asked.
“There is a lady yelling, in what sounds like, Spanish,” Morgan sounded nervous.
“Give her your phone,” you told him. You heard the woman over the phone and Morgan trying to calm her down. “Hola, Señora, ¿Qué es su nombre? Hello, Ma’am, what is your name?
“Gloria Martinez,” the lady responded.
¿Qué necesita?” Garcia seemed shocked at your sudden language shift. What do you need?
“Mi hijo, no sé dónde está,” the woman frantically shouted into the phone. My son, I don’t know where he is.
“Ok, ¿cuándo fue la última vez lo Ud. vio?” you tried to get as much information as you could form her. Ok, when was the last time you saw him?
“La noche pasada,” she seemed to be calming down. “Él me dijo que él iba estar allí para cena pero él nunca vino a mí casa.” Last night, he told me he was going to be there for dinner, but he never came to my house.
“¿Qué es su nombre?” you asked, you heard the door open behind you and Garcia; Reid walked into the room. What is his name?
“Es Mario Martinez,” she was trying to stay calm, you could hear it in her voice. It’s Mario Martinez.
“Bien, Señora, ¿puede dar el teléfono al hombre quien la dio a Ud.?” Reid looked surprised to hear you speaking a new language. Good, Ms, can you give the phone to the man who gave it to you?
“Sí,” she took the phone away from her ear. Yes.
“Hey, I didn’t know you spoke Spanish,” Morgan returned the phone to his ear.
“It was my minor in college,” you answered, “Morgan, I need you to take Ms. Martinez into the conference room and put the phone on speaker,” you barked orders at the man.
“Ok,” you heard the door shut on the other end. “You’re on speaker.”
“Señora Martínez, este hombre te preguntará preguntas en inglés, voy a traducir,” you tried to explain to her what was going to happen. Ms. Martinez, this man will ask you some questions in english, I’m going to translate. “Morgan, ask her question about her son, I’ll translate for you,”
“Ms. Martinez, where did your son like to hang out?” Morgan started to ask questions, like you asked.
“Sra, ¿dónde su hijo le gusta pasar tiempo con su amigos?” you translated.
“En bares, las vías del tren, lugares similares.”
“Morgan, she said, ‘Bars, the train tracks, similar places,’” Reid looked proud to see you helping even after what you’d been through.
“How old was your son?” Morgan asked
“¿Cuántos años tiene su hijo?” you hoped this was helping Morgan.
“Veinte años,” she stated.
“He’s twenty years old,” you translated. The questions and answers continued for a half an hour.
“I think we’ve got all we need, thank you Ms.Martinez,” Morgan finished.
“Tenemos todo que necesitamos. Si necesitamos más información, ¿podemos llamarte?” making sure that you had a way to get more information. We have all that we need. If we need more information, can we call you?
“Sí, puedo escribir mi numero de telephono,” She wrote down her number and you heard her stand up to leave, “Gracias.”
“Gracias, señora,” you heard the door open and close.
“Thank you for that, Y/N,” Morgan added.
“Yeah, it’s no problem. If you need anymore, call me,” you finished.
“Adios, mi amor,” Garcia added, and then hung up.
You stood up and got ready to leave, “Garcia, can you get membership lists of the United Constitutional Patriots in the area?”
“Will do,” she started to type on her computer.
Reid put his hand in the small of your back as you walked out of the office, “I didn’t know you spoke Spanish?”
You waited till the door was closed before responding, “There’s a lot you don’t know about me, Dr. Reid.”
“What else can you say in spanish?” Reid asked you.
“I can say whatever you’d like,” you winked at him.
The two of you walked back to the roundtable room. You two worked diligently on the case for the next few hours. Before the sun started to come up. Reid left to get the two of you breakfast.
While he was gone, you moved from the table to the couch, eventually, falling asleep. You woke up with a blanket on you. The clock said it was 10am.
You sat up and saw Reid sitting at the table, “Mmm, pancakes,” you rubbed your eyes and walked over to the table.
“You were sleeping so peacefully, I didn’t want to wake you up,” he looked up at you.
“Thank you,” you sat down and started to eat the pancakes in front of you.
The clock kept ticking by and there weren’t any more victims for a while. Ms. Martinez’s son eventually showed up. The team was out of leads before someone came into the police station and said that they knew who was responsible. The lead checked out with Garcia. They eventually apprehended a white supremacist just north of the border. Once JJ called you and Reid with this information, you and Reid stopped looking at the files. The team was supposed to be back in DC before 6pm. You and Reid stayed around and worked on paperwork to give the team less to do.
“It’s good to see you here,” Rossi entered the bullpen with open arms.
You got up to give him a hug, “Rossi, it’s good to see you too.”
“I have a gift for you, it’s in my office,” Rossi led you to his office.
“You really didn’t have to get me anything,” you giggled at the man’s kindness.
“When you got shot in LA, your dress was ruined,” he started to explain the nature of the gift, “You seemed to really liked it, right?”
“I did,” you thought back to that night.
“Well, I bought you a new one,” he grabbed a dress bag from behind his desk.
“Rossi, this dress is $450,” you were shocked.
“And?” he handed you the dress and walked toward the door.
“I can’t accept this,” you were smiling ear to ear.
He opened the door, “You can and you will.” You walked out of the room but waited for Rossi before continuing along, “Besides, you can wear it on your date with Reid.”
“What?” you were stunned by the brazen comment, Reid hadn’t asked you out. You hoped Rossi was quite enough that nobody heard him. If someone thought you two were dating, you could get fired. You walked down the stairs to the rest of the team. They all wanted to give you a hug, you returned all of their hus. It was finally time to leave and go back home. Reid walked you to the elevator, he helped carry some of your stuff.
“Hey, i was wondering, I know this is a bit out of the blue,” He started to ramble, “would you maybe want to go on a date with me sometime?”
“Of course I would,” the elevator door opened and you entered with all your stuff. Reid waved bye as the doors closed. Holy shit, is Rossi a psychic?

15 DOGWOOD LANE. JULY 9, 2020
things have been quiet in the few days since the enlightening coven meeting, but of course, during a summer like this one, peace and quiet can never last long. it’s only 8:00 in the morning when the group is woken by a loud, incessant banging at the door.
“police, open up! we have a warrant.”
lucy sprints from the living room to hide just before george answers the door, letting in three serious-looking police officers who quickly flash a warrant before beginning to search around the house. they noisily rummage through the living room, the kitchen, making their way upstairs and opening up every drawer and cabinet in their path. there’s a victorious shout from one of them upstairs, and he emerges with their recovered objective. it’s not lucy, but a single file labeled ‘das.’
the cops turn their attention to george and kieran, and what happens next is such a blur that only snippets can be made out among the chaos. phrases like “under arrest,” “burglary of confidential police data,” and “obstruction of justice” are announced as george and kieran are read their rights, handcuffed, and led outside to a waiting police car. as they’re driven away, one officer stays behind to address the remaining four friends.
“we ask that the rest of you get in your vehicle and come down to the station as well. there are some questions we’d like to ask all six of you about what happened here.”
womp womp! turns out the sexy 6′s actions have consequences! this marks the start of the in-game period july 9-16, and since it wouldn’t be fun for kieran and george to spend the entire time in jail, let’s say they’re able to pay bail and leave on the 10th, after their court date is set for the 17th-- and they’ve had their police interviews, of course.
i’m going to create a discord channel for answers to the police interview questions, which are below the cut! you can directly post your character’s answers in there if you want, or it can be a link to a tumblr post/google doc if you want to do it in more of a self-para style. totally up to you! the only deadline is the next plot drop, & i’ll let you guys know it’s coming once i have a better idea of when that is lol
george & kieran’s questions:
what brought you to norbury this summer?
what motivated you to steal police records?
why the das case specifically? what does that case mean to you?
our security footage shows you looking through the perez and sim cases before stealing the das file. why those cases?
what do you know about the death of natalie rigby?
what do you know about the disappearance of lucy eliopoulos?
theo, vinnie, zee & ingrid’s questions:
what brought you to norbury this summer?
were you aware of ms. chanthara and mr. kang’s crime before this morning?
your friends looked through 2 confidential files and stole a 3rd. did they show or discuss the content of any of those cases with you?
do the names das, perez, or sim mean anything to you?
what do you know about the death of natalie rigby?
what do you know about the disappearance of lucy eliopoulos?

Salvation Ch.1
Warnings: Angst, Minor character deaths, mentions of abuse.
Pairings: Tony Stark x Stark!reader, eventual Peter Parker x reader
THIS WILL CONTAIN ENDGAME SPOILERS LATER ON
My writing is shit. Lol. Also I'm not great with summaries
Summary: Tony finds out he has a daughter and throughout the years they become closer. Y/N also develops a crush on Peter, but when tragedy strikes the starks, can Peter and Y/N help each other and find peace?
April 2008
Tony Stark was known as a genius, billionaire playboy philanthropist, he had women constantly hanging off his arms, throwing parties every week, spending money as if it were nothing. Tony’s life right now couldn’t be better. Tony was currently wrapped around another female friend, Pepper quickly made her way through the house, Tony’s suits in hand she set the suits down and asked Jarvis where Tony was. The AL answered that Mr. Stark was currently sleeping and asked if he should wake him, Pepper said yes and Jarvis did as he was told, Tony slowly awoke from his sleep, put on sweats, a plain black shirt and made his way into the garage. Pepper was currently waiting for him to show up, but instead of Tony she finds a brunette woman looking around, Pepper nodded towards the woman and the stranger waved and pointed to the front door, she left. Pepper started making her way towards the garage when she heard the doorbell ring, she sighed and opened the door expecting to see the brunette but instead she is greeted by a short woman in her mid 50s in a black pantsuit, thin glasses framed her blue colored almond shaped eyes, her black hair had streaks of silver in it, her smile was calming.
“Hello, how may I help you?” Pepper asked
“Oh, yes. I am looking for a Mr. Anthony Stark.”
“Mr. Stark? May I ask as to what this is about? Also, who are you?”
The older woman was about to speak, when she was interrupted by a little girl, no more than 6 years old.
“Mrs. Garcia… I really have to use the restroom.” the little girl said in a whisper
“Oh, is it alright if she uses the restroom?”
Pepper looked back and forth between the two, she sighed and nodded; letting them in, kneeling down to the girls level,
“The bathroom is down the hall, 2nd door to the right.” The girl didn’t bother to look up, she simply nodded and made her way to the bathroom.
“Forgive her, she’s extremely shy.” Mrs. Garcia said
“Where are my manners, My name is Julie Garcia,” she extended her hand towards Pepper and shook her hand.
“I am Pepper Potts, but you can call me Ms. Potts.”
“Ms.Potts, I’m from child services and I am here to talk to Mr. Stark about his daughter.” Pepper stared at the older woman and let out a chuckle
She shook her head “That’s not possible, Mr. Stark doesn’t have any children.”
“It would seem that he does Ms. Potts, the little girl who just went to the restroom, Y/N Stark.”
Pepper’s eyes widened,
“Jarvis, can you tell Tony to come up here please.”
“Of course Ms.Potts.”
Tony rolled his eyes at Jarvis, but still listened and made his way up the stairs, rubbing his eyes and bumping into something. The little girl fell to the floor with a thud, still looking down she murmured a small “I’m sorry.” Tony watched the small girl, pick herself up, dust her black leggings off and picked up the stuffed stitch she had been carrying. Before Tony could ask who she was, she entered the bathroom and shut the door in his face.
“Pepper, you didn’t tell me you had a niece, she’s a bit rude isn’t she.”
Tony noticed Pepper sitting across an older woman, he looked back towards the locked door and back to the older woman, pointing back and forth to the door and her.
“Ms. Potts, Who is this?” Tony asked crossing his arms, leaning against the wall. The older woman stood extending her hand towards Tony
“Hello Mr. Stark, my name is Julie Garcia and I'm with child services, I'm here to discuss your daughter.” She said while shaking Tony's hand
Tony smirked and let out a chuckle
“Daughter? I'm afraid you have mistaken Mrs. Garcia, I don't have any kids and even if I did what does it have to do with me?”
“Well, Mr.Stark, it seems you are mistaken, you do have a daughter and you are now the sole legal guardian of your daughter”
Tony sighed out of annoyance and rubbed his temples.
“Look I don't know what game you're playing or what kind of scam you are running, but I.DO.NOT.HAVE.A.CHILD”
Mrs. Garcia's lips went into a tight line. Her blue eyes looked behind Tony and were met by Y/C eyes, tears slowly forming in the young girls' eyes. She clutched her stitch tighter against her chest. Tony noticed Mrs. Garcia's attention was elsewhere, he turned to look down to see the young girl he bumped into. She kept her head down and slowly made her way towards the older woman. Tony could barely hear what the young girl said to the older woman.
“I'd like to go home to mama now.”
“Huh, see the kid here wants to go home to her mother, so have fun taking her back and goodbye.”
Tony started to walk away
“She can't go back Mr.Stark.” Mrs. Garcia turned towards Pepper
“Ms. Potts, is there a place where she can sit and watch a movie or play?”
Pepper nodded
“There's a theater room, she can watch a movie there.” Pepper moved to grab the young girls hand but she moved behind Mrs. Garcia and glared at Peppers' hand.
“She doesn't like to be touched by strangers,” Mrs. Garcia turned to the girl
“She'll just take you to the room, you can watch lilo and stitch there, she won't touch your hand. Go on now.”
Y/C eyes started up at Pepper and nodded. Y/N carefully followed behind Pepper. Once they were out of earshot, Mrs. Garcia pointed to the seat
“Would you please take a seat, Mr. Stark?” Tony chewed on the inside of his cheek and made his way to the chair across the older woman.
“As I was saying, I am here to discuss your daughter Y/N St-”
“So what, the mother wants me to pay up right? Does she want my money? Because she's not going to get any. She probably got pregnant by some low life and thought she could milk money out of me right? That would be the only logical explanation as to why you say I have a daughter.”
“Mr. Stark, I am not here to collect money for the child, I am here to say you are now her legal guardian as you are listed as her father on her birth certificate.”
Tony leaned back into the chair, crossing her leg over the other.
“Why am I legal guardian, what about her mother?”
The sound of clinking could be heard, the two look up to see Pepper making her way to the sofa.
“She is watching Lilo and Stitch, wrapped in a blanket.”
“Thank you, Ms. Potts.” Mrs. Garcia turned her attention back to Tony.
“Her mother is dead.”
Tony didn't react
“Actually her whole family died, brother, sister, mother.” Mrs. Garcia pulled out a file and handed it to Tony. Tony grabbed the file, pulling out its contents.
“Her mother was dating a man, who she thought was a good man, but later she found out he wasn't. He started drinking, gambling, stealing money from them, doing drugs. She found out and tried to kick him out but he ended up beating her and the older kids, luckily Y/N's sister and brother hid her before he could reach her. This went on for months,”
“Why didn't the police do anything?” Pepper asked
“Well, in Mexico, people tend to ignore these things. Y/N would hide whenever Mr. Perez would show up. One day, her mother was out working and her brother and sister were out with friends leaving Y/N alone in the house, Mr.Perez came, she hid but he went looking for her. When he found her, he wasn't too happy that she was hiding from him, he beat her, she barely made it out alive.”
Tony flipped through the pictures of the young girl covered in bruises, blood, cut lip, black eyes. Tony couldn't help to wince.
“Her mother had enough and ran with the kids. They lived peacefully for a while, but he owed money to some very powerful people. They managed to find them, Mr. Perez offered up the mother and children as a trade. Her mother ran and told the kids to run and not look back but the older kids stayed and sent their little sister off. Y/N ran and hid, she saw the men drag her mother and siblings out. The men shouted out that this was a warning to those who don't pay up. Y/N watched as the men raised their guns and shot her mother and siblings in the head. Y/N somehow managed to find U.S tourists who took her to the crossing, handing her over to the U.S officials. They tried asking her what had happened but she wouldn't speak, they found her birth certificate, found out she was born in the U.S and that you were her father.”
Tony continued to look through the contents when he stumbled upon a family photo of the young girl, her siblings and her mother. Tony's eyes widened as he stared at the mother. He shook his head, he remembered her. Tony had met Isabelle back in California, she worked as an intelligence analyst for the U.S government, she was a fierce 5 foot 3 woman. Y/c eyes, black curled hair that reached her waist that woman was not someone to be messed with and Tony loved it, at one point maybe he did love her. But Tony didn't do love, the reputation he built wouldn't let him. Tony stayed in California for her, he would wake up next to her and smile, gently running his fingers through her hair, when she would stir awake her Y/C eyes would stare up at him and Tony could swear his heart would skip a beat. 3 months of pure bliss, cuddling, forehead kisses, late night drives, stargazing. Isabelle would say to him
“Who would have thought Mr. Stark was such a romantic.”
Tony swore her smile was like sunshine, it could brighten his whole day, but Tony soon realized he needed to get back to reality. So, he broke her heart. Her smile went from lighting up his world to bittersweet and filled with darkness. Her eyes filled with tears and Tony just stared at her with a blank expression. Isabelle scoffed at him, she turned to grab her things and left.
Tony blinked as the memories flashed through his mind. He stared at the photograph, everyone was smiling except for Y/N, in most photos she's not smiling. The photos were dated by months and year, Y/N and her family stopped smiling 10-2007 and on. Tony looked at the ones of her smiling, god she had her mother's smile, radiating sunshine.
“Y/N is a special child.”
“What do you mean?” Pepper asked. Tony looked up from the files.
“Well, she has an outstanding IQ. She also creates things once she trusts you. She doesn't speak much mostly nods or shakes her head. She'll switch around she can be a normal 6-year-old or she can be a genius, most of the time she sticks to being 6. She got made fun of and the teachers didn't know what to do with her since she was far too advanced even for the college professors.”
Tony raised an eyebrow. Looking back down to the file.
“How do we know that she really is To- Mr.Stark's?”
“If you like we can do a DNA test, but that is up to Mr.Stark.”
Tony mindlessly nodded too focused on the file.
“If you wish to give up your parental rights, I'll have you sign the form and Y/N will be placed into the system.”
Pepper looked at Tony
“Mrs. Garcia is it alright if he thinks and talks it over for a couple of days.”
“Of course Ms.Potts, I should get Y/N then?”
“I'll go get her.”
“Thank you, Ms. Potts.”
Mrs. Garcia watched the blonde woman make her way through the hall and turned her attention back to Tony.
“You seem to recognize her mother, Mr. Stark.”
“I met her many years ago..”
Mrs. Garcia nodded turning she pulled a white envelope from her bag, handing it to Tony.
“This is for you Mr.Stark.”
Tony grabbed the envelope from her and began to open it.
Tony,
It’s been about 6 months since we last saw each other. God how I wish I could hate you but I can’t. The day you told me you never really cared for me, that I was some game you had fun playing, I found out I was pregnant. I hoped and prayed she looks nothing like you or is like you in the slightest, but there are times where I hope she has some things as you. Your eyes, your brains, sense of wonder and even your stubbornness. Tony, I hope you don’t doubt that she’s yours, I know you are at a point in your life where kids aren’t on your mind nor are they your priority but I hope that you do take care of her in case something happens to me. Please.
Isabelle
Tony
It’s been 2 years since I last saw you, I gave birth to our daughter and she is beautiful Tony. She took her first steps at such a young age, talking in sentences. She is definitely like you in some ways, smart, proud and most definitely stubborn. She doesn’t take no for an answer. She’s curious about everything, questions everything. I don’t know if I’ll actually ever send you these letters but if I do I’ll include a picture of her. My mother tells me she has my smile but she looks exactly like you. I live in Mexico now, if you ever want to meet her. I miss you, Tony.
Isabelle
Tony
She has grown so much, I wish you could see her but I’m afraid to tell you about her. I’m trying to move on. If anything happens to me take care of her Tony. I miss you.
Isabelle
“Here you are Y/N.”
Y/N made her way to Mrs. Garcia and held onto her hand. Mrs. Garcia stood, grabbing her belongings and made her way towards the door.
“It was nice meeting you Ms. Potts, Mr. Stark.”
“Wait!” Tony yelled out. He got up from his seat and made his way towards them.
“I.. I would like to have her stay.” Y/N breath hitched, she could feel her heart beating faster. She didn't want to stay with him or her she wanted to go home with her mother even if she knew that wasn't possible. Mrs. Garcia would never leave her here with a stranger. Would she? Y/N could feel her breathes getting shorter, the walls were closing in on her, her thoughts were screaming at her, tears streaming down her face. Why can’t she breathe? What if the same thing that happened to mama happens to Tony? What if he changes his mind? What happens if he didn’t simply want her? Is he really her father? Don’t leave. Don’t leave. PLEASE. DON’T. LEAVE.
“Sir, it seems that miss Y/N is having a panic attack,” said Jarvis
The three adults look down to the little girl and Tony instinctively reached out for her, Y/N scooted away from him, shaking her head. Mrs. Garcia bent down.
“Sweetie, look at me.” Y/N looked into the older woman’s eyes.
“I need you to breathe in and out deeply in the counts of 10, for 5 seconds breathe in and for the other 5 breathe out.” Y/N nodded doing what she was told.
“Miss Y/N heart rate has calmed and her breathing is back to normal.”
Y/N looked around to find the source of the voice
“Oh, that’s Jarvis. He’s.. how do I explain this, He’s an AI who helps around the place.” Tony said simply.
Y/N furrowed her brows, artificial intelligence? From the sounds of it, he did more than help around.
“What else do you do Jarvis?” Y/N said timidly. Mrs. Garcia’s eyes widened, Y/N rarely spoke to strangers, it took her weeks to get her to talk to her. But to her Jarvis was someone to be trusted, he helped her.
“I am tasked with running the business for Stark industries as well as security for Mr. Stark's Mansion and Stark Tower.”
“So, you do everything basically?”
“I do most, but Ms. Potts does more.”
“Hey, who’s the boss?” Tony scoffed
“Ms. Potts sir.”
Tony scoffed once more and rolled his eyes, Y/N stared at the man. He acts like a child, from the looks of things he depends mostly on Ms. Potts and Jarvis to remind him of things.
“Would you like to see what I’m working on?” Tony asked
Y/N looked Tony up and down. She nodded, reaching her hand towards his. Everyone was shocked at the sudden gesture, Tony let out a slight smile and grab her hand, leading her down to the garage. Mrs. Garcia and Ms. Potts followed behind the two. Tony explained to the little girl about the new security system he was building up for Jarvis. Y/N looked at the coding in front of her and rolled her eyes. Anyone with a brain could hack into this system. Y/N set her stitch down and typed in a different sequence and easily got into his files. Tony’s eyes widened, he let out a chuckle.
“Ok, so what would you do then? Miss. smarty pants.”
Y/N smiled and created a whole new system.
“There.” She said and went back to hugging her Stitch.
“Sweetie?” Y/N looked up to Mrs. Garcia
“May I speak with you?” Y/N nodded, Mrs. Garcia and Y/N made their way up the stairs.
“Would you like to stay here with Mr. Stark? You seem to be getting along with him.” Y/N looked back down the stairs, she felt conflicted. Could she trust him?
“If you like it can be a sort of trial run. Stay here for a couple of months and I’ll come back if you want to leave you can come with me if you want to stay you can stay.” Y/N looked back and forth between Mrs. Garcia and the door. She nodded.
“I’d like to try.”

Harvey Weinstein Trial: Jury Suggests It Is Split on 2 Most Serious Charges https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/21/nyregion/weinstein-verdict.html
Harvey Weinstein jury suggests it’s deadlocked on two counts, unanimous on others in sexual assault case
By Shayna Jacobs | Published February 21 at 3:30 PM EST | Washington Post | Posted February 21, 2020 |
NEW YORK — The jury in Harvey Weinstein's sexual assault trial suggested Friday that it was hung on the two top counts but unanimous on the others as it headed into a break for the weekend.
Justice James Burke gave juror a brief instruction, roughly a minute long, asking them to continue trying to reach a verdict on all counts. The panel of seven men and five women must be unanimous to reach a verdict — but the language of a note they sent to the judge indicates they are not there on the counts of predatory sexual assault, which are the most severe in the case and carry a sentence of 10 years to life in prison.
“We the jury request to understand if we can be hung on 1 and 3 and unanimous on the other charges,” said the note, which Burke read aloud before calling the jury in to address them.
The note, despite its specificity, does not necessarily reflect the jurors’ eventual verdict — it could have been posing a hypothetical scenario, or could simply reflect their confusion over the complicated charges.
About a half-hour after Burke addressed jurors, they were sent home. The session was already set to end early, at 3 p.m., because Weinstein attorney Donna Rotunno needed to travel home to Chicago to attend a funeral.
In the courtroom, Weinstein, leaning over his walker, looked downtrodden after conferring with his lawyers about the developments. Later, in the hallway, the once-powerful movie producer shrugged and stayed silent as reporters shouted questions about the jury indications.
Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr., who has a lot riding on the high-profile case, had a wide grin across his face as he left the courtroom.
The predatory sexual assault charges that seem to be in dispute both stem from an accusation from “The Sopranos” actress Annabella Sciorra, 59, who testified that Weinstein raped her in late 1993 or early 1994. Jurors would need to conclude that there was a pattern of sexual assault that includes Sciorra’s allegation and the allegations of either or both of the other accusers: Mimi Haleyi and Jessica Mann.
The other charges in the trial are for individual acts alleged by Haleyi and Mann. Haleyi, 42, a former production assistant, testified that Weinstein forced an act of oral sex on her on July 10, 2006, at his New York apartment. Mann, 34, had a consensual five-year relationship with Weinstein but said he forced sex on her twice — once in New York at a DoubleTree Hotel on March 18, 2013, and once in Los Angeles. (He is not being charged in the latter case.)
The jury’s suggestion that they are unanimous on those individual Mann and Haleyi charges could mean that it is planning to convict on at least one of them. If jurors’ unanimity on Mann and Haleyi were for acquittal, they would presumably have to be unanimous on acquittal on the predatory sexual assault charges, since those involve endorsing Mann or Haleyi’s allegations — but they are suggesting they’re hung, not unanimous.
Weinstein, 67, has said that all sexual encounters were consensual.
Three other women were allowed to testify as supporting witnesses in the trial, which began Jan. 6.
Weinstein’s lawyers argued at trial that the women were seeking access to the industry through the powerful producer of Oscar-winning films such as “Shakespeare in Love” and “Pulp Fiction.”
Earlier Friday, the jury heard a requested read-back from Sciorra’s cross-examination. Since the jury began deliberations Tuesday, they have also asked for read-back from the testimony of actress Rosie Perez, Sciorra’s longtime friend, who testified that Sciorra told her decades ago via phone conversation that she had been raped. The jury has also requested emails and read-backs related to Haleyi’s accusation.
Weinstein’s legal team sought to cast doubt on Sciorra’s story by pointing out that it is nearly 30 years old, and arguing that, like the other two accusers, Sciorra did not come forward to authorities with a claim about Weinstein until news reports of his sexual misconduct were published in October 2017.
At the conclusion of this trial, Weinstein will face another set of sex crimes charges in Los Angeles.

Harvey Weinstein Trial: Jury Suggests It Is Split on 2 Most Serious Charges
The judge told jurors to keep deliberating after they sent a note asking if they could be deadlocked on the top counts, but unanimous on others.

The jury in Harvey Weinstein’s rape trial sent a note to the judge on Friday afternoon suggesting that it was deadlocked on the most serious charges in the indictment, but that it might have reached a verdict on three other counts.
In their note, on the fourth day of deliberations, the jurors asked if they could return a unanimous verdict on one of the lesser charges of rape or criminal sexual act, but remain split on two charges of predatory sexual assault, which carry a possible life sentence.
“We the jury request to understand if we can be hung on 1 and /or 3 but unanimous on the other charges,” read the note, which was entered during the lunch break.
Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers said they would accept a partial verdict, but prosecutors said they were not yet willing to do so.
Justice James M. Burke of State Supreme Court in Manhattan told the jurors to continue deliberating. Minutes later, at 3 p.m., he adjourned the proceedings and sent the jurors home for the weekend because one of the defense lawyers had a funeral to attend. Deliberations resume on Monday.
The jury did not say what it had decided on the lesser counts. The predatory sexual assault count requires prosecutors to prove that Mr. Weinstein committed a serious sexual felony against at least two people.
The case against Mr. Weinstein, 67, was built primarily on the accusations brought by two women: Miriam Haley, 42, a former production assistant who testified that Mr. Weinstein forced oral sex on her in 2006; and Jessica Mann, 34, an actress who said Mr. Weinstein raped her in a Midtown Manhattan hotel room in 2013.
In weighing the predatory sexual assault charges, the jury was also asked to consider testimony given by the actress Annabella Sciorra, who said Mr. Weinstein raped her in the early 1990s. Prosecutors were barred by New York State’s statute of limitations from bringing charges in the incident involving Ms. Sciorra, 59, who was the prosecution’s strongest witness.
The jury’s note suggested that one or some jurors did not believe Ms. Sciorra. In previous notes, jurors have asked to review testimony given by both she and Ms. Haley, as well as to review communications and emails related to the two women.
Mr. Weinstein has pleaded not guilty and claims all his sexual encounters with his accusers were consensual. He did not respond to reporters’ questions as he left the courthouse on Friday.

Harvey Weinstein Trial: What Happened This Week
By Andrea Salcedo | Published Feb. 21, 2020 Updated 3:07 p.m. ET | New York Times | Posted February 21, 2020 |
On Friday, jurors suggested they were split on the two most serious charges.
After listening to weeks of testimony, the jury in Harvey Weinstein’s rape trial began deliberations this week. For reporters, as well as stakeholders in the case, the waiting began.
By yesterday afternoon, the jury of seven men and five women had not reached a decision.
Mr. Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty in State Supreme Court in Manhattan to five felony counts, including two charges of predatory sexual assault.
Though six women testified at the trial, the charges hinge on allegations made by two women, Jessica Mann and Miriam Haley. In deciding the predatory sexual assault charges, however, the jury was asked to consider the testimony of the actress Annabella Sciorra, who said Mr. Weinstein raped her in the early 1990s. (Her accusation is too old to qualify as a crime under state law.)
Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers say that the encounters between their client and his accusers were consensual, and that the women used him to advance their careers.
I talked to my colleague Jan Ransom, who is covering the trial for The Times, about the recent developments in the courthouse. This is a condensed version of our conversation.
WHAT HAPPENED IN COURT THIS WEEK?
Jurors began deliberating on Tuesday. Soon after, they rang a bell to alert the court that they had a question. The first three days of deliberations continued this way.
At the end of each day, Mr. Weinstein typically responds to reporters’ questions, even if sarcastically, as he shuffles with a walker toward the elevators outside of the courtroom. But since the deliberations began, he has been quiet — opting to just crack a slight smile, keeping moving without a word.
WHAT QUESTIONS HAS THE JURY ASKED?
The jury has sent seven notes with multiple questions; it wanted, for instance, an explanation of the charges and legal terms such as “consent” and “forcible compulsion.” It also requested to hear the testimony of Annabella Sciorra and Miriam Haley, as well as to review emails and communications related to the women.
Ms. Sciorra was the prosecution’s strongest witness. On Tuesday, the jury asked for an explanation as to why they could not convict on Ms. Sciorra’s allegation and for clarification on the statute of limitations.
It seemed the jury was assessing the credibility of the accounts provided by Ms. Sciorra and Ms. Haley, and trying to determine whether the evidence supports a conviction on the predatory sexual assault charge.
WHAT OTHER NEWS HAS COME OUT? (SEE BELOW)
The lead prosecutor, Joan Illuzzi, accused Mr. Weinstein’s lead lawyer, Donna Rotunno, of jury tampering after she wrote an op-ed in Newsweek telling the jury to do “the right thing.”
When should we expect a verdict?
Those of us covering the trial have labored over this question, knowing an answer does not exist. It’s all a guessing game that no one can resist.
We can assume what might happen, and when, based on the jury’s questions, but it is hard to know. At the end of the day, only 12 people — the jurors — really know when a verdict will be reached.

Who’s Who in the Harvey Weinstein Trial
Mr. Weinstein, once a powerful Hollywood producer now accused of sex crimes, could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted of the most serious charge against him.
By Michael Levenson | Published Feb. 19, 2020 Updated Feb. 21, 2020, 3:15 p.m. ET | New York Times | Posted February 21, 2020 |
Jury deliberations began this week in the trial of Harvey Weinstein, setting the stage for a watershed moment that will test whether the allegations that helped ignite the #MeToo movement can sustain a conviction against a man who was once one of the most powerful producers in Hollywood.
Mr. Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty in State Supreme Court in Manhattan to five felony charges, including rape, criminal sexual assault and predatory sexual assault. His lawyers have argued that his accusers engaged in consensual and often transactional relationships with him to advance their careers.
If convicted of the most serious charge against him, predatory sexual assault, Mr. Weinstein could be sentenced to life in prison.
Here’s a look at some of the key figures in the trial.
THE JUDGE
Justice James M. Burke
The task of presiding over the trial has fallen to James M. Burke, a former prosecutor appointed to the bench in 2001. Justice Burke clashed with Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers early in the trial after the judge suggested that Mr. Weinstein might end up in prison for life for repeatedly violating an order not to use his cellphone in court. Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers argued that the comments were evidence of bias and asked the judge to recuse himself. Justice Burke refused, saying he was merely using “hyperbolic language.”
THE JURY
The 12 jurors who will decide Mr. Weinstein’s fate were chosen after an arduous two-week process during which the prosecution argued that the defense was systematically eliminating white women from the panel, even though a majority of Mr. Weinstein’s accusers were from that demographic. In the end, the jury included seven men and five women, two of them white women. Among them are a public housing worker, an Upper East Side businessman, an East Harlem security guard, the managing partner of an investment firm, a banking executive, the co-founder of a start-up, a real estate tax accountant and a lawyer whose sister is a federal prosecutor in Chicago.
THE DEFENSE
Donna Rotunno, Arthur Aidala and Damon Cheronis
Harvey Weinstein’s legal team
Donna Rotunno, Mr. Weinstein’s lead defense lawyer, is a brash and outspoken combatant in the cultural wars and in the courtroom. A former Illinois prosecutor, she has been hailed as “a bulldog” by the men she has defended from sexual misconduct charges. Ms. Rotunno has lost only one sex-crime trial, and has been known to wear a gold chain to court bearing the proclamation “Not Guilty.” She has assailed the #MeToo movement, arguing that it has wrecked reputations and careers without due process, and has contended that women bear equal responsibility for protecting themselves from sexual assault. In a recent interview on “The Daily,” she said she had never been sexually assaulted “because I would never put myself in that position.”
Damon Cheronis, Ms. Rotunno’s frequent legal collaborator, is a Chicago lawyer who specializes in defending clients against serious state and federal charges. He has called the trial of Mr. Weinstein the “type of case that trial lawyers live for.”
Arthur Aidala, the sole New York-based lawyer on the team, is a frequent commentator on Fox News who has defended other prominent men accused of sexual misconduct, including Roger Ailes, Alan Dershowitz and Lawrence Taylor, the former N.F.L. linebacker.
DEFENSE WITNESS
Talita Maia
Among the key witnesses called by the defense was Talita Maia, a former friend of one of Mr. Weinstein’s two main accusers, Jessica Mann. Ms. Mann has said that Mr. Weinstein raped her, but Ms. Maia testified that Ms. Mann had described Mr. Weinstein as her “spiritual soul mate” and had never said that he had assaulted her. “She would say he is a wonderful person,” Ms. Maia said. “There was flirtation between them since the first day.”
Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers also called several other witnesses to bolster their claim that the relationships were consensual or cast doubt on his accusers’ accounts. One of those witnesses was Elizabeth Loftus, a cognitive psychologist who suggested that Mr. Weinstein’s accusers might not recall incidents from years ago. “It doesn’t take a Ph.D. to know that memory fades over time,” she said.
THE DEFENDANT
Harvey Weinstein
Harvey Weinstein was for years a Hollywood kingmaker, turning out Oscar-winning movies and presenting himself as a champion of liberal causes, even as he was shadowed by sexual misconduct allegations. Then, in October 2017, an investigation by The New York Times found previously undisclosed allegations against Mr. Weinstein stretching over nearly three decades. Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, Ashley Judd and Rosanna Arquette were among the actors who accused Mr. Weinstein of misconduct. More than 90 women have since come forward to allege sexual misconduct by Mr. Weinstein, though the trial hinges on accounts from just two key accusers, Jessica Mann and Miriam Haley. Mr. Weinstein has maintained that all the encounters were consensual.
THE PROSECUTION
Cyrus R. Vance Jr.
Manhattan district attorney
The trial represents a critical test for Cyrus R. Vance Jr., the Manhattan district attorney, who has been criticized for not pursuing charges against Mr. Weinstein in 2015. Mr. Vance has said there was not enough evidence to prosecute the case, despite an audio tape that an Italian model, Ambra Battilana, made for the police on which Mr. Weinstein apologized when she asked him why he had touched her breasts. Mr. Vance, who was elected in 2009 on a promise to aggressively pursue sex crimes, has worked to clear a backlog of rape-evidence kits and convict people charged with the sex trafficking of minors. A conviction of Mr. Weinstein could help restore his reputation as a champion of women’s issues. A loss could damage his legacy and political fortunes.
Joan Illuzzi and Meghan Hast Assistant district attorneys
Regarded as one of the most successful prosecutors in the Manhattan district attorney’s office, Joan Illuzzi has been in charge of Mr. Weinstein’s case since April 2018, when the allegations against him were still under investigation. She is known for securing the 2017 conviction of the former bodega stock clerk who killed Etan Patz, the 6-year-old boy who disappeared in 1979 as he walked to his school bus stop in SoHo. In 2016, she ran unsuccessfully as a Republican candidate for district attorney on Staten Island.
Meghan Hast, the second prosecutor on the team, has offered graphic details in the trial, such as when she said Mr. Weinstein injected erection medication into his genitals and showed up in his underwear outside the hotel room of the actress Annabella Sciorra, with baby oil in one hand and a videotape in the other. Ms. Hast joined the Manhattan district attorney’s office in 2007. In 2018, she was named deputy chief of the Violent Criminal Enterprises Unit, which prosecutes interstate gun traffickers, armed street gangs and drug dealers.
Jessica Mann and Miriam Haley Key witnesses for the prosecution
Six women testified for the prosecution that Mr. Weinstein attacked them, though the charges he faces were based on the allegations of two main accusers: Jessica Mann and Miriam Haley.
Ms. Mann, an aspiring actress raised in Washington State, said Mr. Weinstein raped her in a Manhattan hotel room in 2013. Her case was challenging for prosecutors because she said she was assaulted during a long relationship with Mr. Weinstein that included some consensual sex. Ms. Mann said she had maintained the relationship to protect her career and defuse Mr. Weinstein’s “unpredictable anger.”
Ms. Haley, a former assistant on a TV show produced by Mr. Weinstein, said he forced oral sex on her at his home in 2006. Two weeks later, Ms. Haley said, she reluctantly had sex with Mr. Weinstein in a hotel. She said she also sent him emails, took a work meeting and approached him at film events because she wanted to “just put it away in a box and pretended like it didn’t happen.”
ANNABELLA SCIORRA
WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION
The actress Annabella Sciorra, known for her work in “The Sopranos,” testified in detail about the night in late 1993 or early 1994 when she said Mr. Weinstein shoved his way into her Manhattan apartment and sexually assaulted her as she tried to fight him off. The incident was too old to be prosecuted under state law. But prosecutors obtained an indictment from a grand jury that let Ms. Sciorra testify in support of the predatory assault charge, which requires the state to prove that Mr. Weinstein committed a serious sexual offense against at least two people.
DAWN DUNNING, TARALE WULFF AND LAUREN YOUNG
Three other women — Dawn Dunning, Tarale Wulff and Lauren Young — also appeared for the prosecution as so-called Molineux witnesses, testifying about alleged sexual assaults that are not part of the indictment; their testimony was sought to demonstrate a pattern of predatory behavior by Mr. Weinstein. Molineux witnesses, also known as prior bad act” witnesses” were used to help convict Bill Cosby of sexual assault during his second trial in 2018.

Weinstein Jurors Focus on ‘Project Runway’ Assistant’s Complaint
The jury is reviewing testimony from Miriam Haley, who said Harvey Weinstein sexually assaulted her in 2006.
By Jan Ransom | Published Feb. 19, 2020 | New York Times | Posted February 21, 2020 |
The jury in Harvey Weinstein’s rape trial began its second day of deliberations by asking to review testimony and other evidence related to a former production assistant on “Project Runway,” who said that the producer had forced oral sex on her in 2006.
The jury sent a note to the judge at 9:50 a.m. on Wednesday, requesting to hear all of the testimony from the production assistant, Miriam Haley. Ms. Haley is one of two women whose allegations form the basis of the indictment against Mr. Weinstein.
Mr. Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty in State Supreme Court in Manhattan to five felony counts, including rape and predatory sexual assault. The two charges of predatory sexual assault require the jury to find that Mr. Weinstein committed a serious sexual assault against at least two women. If convicted on that charge, he would face up to life in prison.
By late Wednesday morning, the courtroom was again transformed into a stage for Ms. Haley’s recollections, as jurors listened intently as two court reporters read Ms. Haley’s testimony from Jan. 27.
Ms. Haley, 42, had testified that she first met Mr. Weinstein at a movie premiere in London in 2004. Two years later, she said, Mr. Weinstein got her a job on the reality television show “Project Runway.”
Ms. Haley testified that the producer tried to sexualize the relationship, commenting, for instance, on her legs. He also asked her to give him a massage, she said.
Another time, he showed up to her apartment unannounced and invited her to go to Paris with him, which she declined to do. Later, Ms. Haley agreed to go with Mr. Weinstein to a film premiere in Los Angeles. She said she did so because she would be traveling alone and because one of her friends in California was about to give birth.
On July 10, 2006, Mr. Weinstein invited Ms. Haley to visit him at his apartment in Manhattan’s TriBeCa neighborhood. After a brief conversation, she testified, he lunged at her.
“I pushed him away, and he kept kissing and fondling me,” Ms. Haley told the jury. “I got up and tried to walk away, and he pulled me toward him.”
She testified that Mr. Weinstein backed her into a bedroom where she fell onto the bed. She said she continued to tell him: “I don’t want this to happen. I’m on my period.” But, she said, he was not deterred.
“I was telling him, ‘No, no, no, don’t do that,’” Ms. Haley said. “It was as if he didn’t believe me.”
About two weeks later, Ms. Haley said, she met Mr. Weinstein at the TriBeCa Grand Hotel. When she entered his room, she said, the producer pulled her toward the bed. Though she was sobbing, Ms. Haley said, she had sex with him. Mr. Weinstein has not been charged in that encounter. Ms. Haley acknowledged on the stand that she did not “physically resist.”
Ms. Haley also acknowledged on cross-examination that after her second sexual encounter with Mr. Weinstein, she did not stop seeing him. She said she tried to maintain “a professional connection” with him. She passed scripts to Mr. Weinstein from friends and had pitched him on her own idea for a project.
Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers suggested that Ms. Haley and Mr. Weinstein had a consensual relationship. He gave her tickets to movie premieres and paid for her to fly to London shortly after the alleged assault.
The jury also asked for a read back of Ms. Haley’s cross-examination, as well as copies of friendly emails the two had sent to each other and of correspondence that Mr. Weinstein and his company had sent to others about Ms. Haley.
The emails included one from June 2008: “Hi Harvey, how are you?” Ms. Haley wrote. “Great to see you.” She signed off, “Lots of Love Miriam.”
Though six women testified at the trial, the criminal charges hinge on allegations made by Ms. Haley and Jessica Mann, 34, who testified that Mr. Weinstein raped her at the Doubletree Hotel in Midtown Manhattan in 2013.
In deciding the predatory sexual assault charges, however, the jury is also being asked to consider the testimony of Annabella Sciorra, the actress known for her work on “The Sopranos.”
Ms. Sciorra testified that Mr. Weinstein barged into her Manhattan apartment and raped her in the early 1990s. Her rape allegation is too old to be charged as a separate crime.
On Tuesday, the first day of deliberations, Justice James M. Burke instructed the jury to first consider predatory sexual assault as it relates to Ms. Haley and Ms. Sciorra. The notes that jurors sent out on Wednesday suggested they were still discussing that count, the first on the verdict sheet.
On Wednesday afternoon, the jury seemed to home in on Ms. Sciorra’s account. They asked to hear the testimony of the actress Rosie Perez, who said Ms. Sciorra had told her she had been raped after the incident and who later had identified Mr. Weinstein as her attacker.
The jury also requested copies of communications between Mr. Weinstein and Paul Feldsher, a writer and former talent agent who testified for the defense. Mr. Feldsher said Ms. Sciorra had characterized her encounter with Mr. Weinstein as a “crazy thing,” not an assault. “My understanding was that she fooled around with him,” he said.
Ms. Sciorra, best known for her roles in “Jungle Fever” and “The Sopranos,” denied saying that to Mr. Feldsher.
The jury also wanted to review emails that mentioned Ms. Sciorra, including communications with Guidepost Solutions, a private investigations firm, and Black Cube, the Israeli intelligence firm Mr. Weinstein hired to investigate certain people he believed were speaking to reporters.

Weinstein’s Lawyer Wrote an Article Addressing Jurors. The Judge Is Unhappy.
The film producer’s lawyer urged jurors to do “what they know is right,’’ prompting the prosecution to complain of jury tampering.
By Jan Ransom | Published Feb. 18, 2020 Updated Feb. 21, 2020, 3:14 p.m. ET | New York Times | Posted February 21, 2020 |
Over the weekend, just days before jurors in the Harvey Weinstein case were set to begin deliberations, his lead defense lawyer, Donna Rotunno, wrote an opinion piece imploring them “to do what they know is right.”
The article in Newsweek magazine infuriated the Manhattan district attorney’s office, and on Tuesday the lead prosecutor, Joan Illuzzi, called Ms. Rotunno’s behavior “inappropriate,” and tantamount to jury tampering.
The judge ordered the defense team not to speak to the news media until after a verdict is reached.
“Defense team you are ordered to refrain from communicating with the press until there is a verdict in the case,” Justice James M. Burke told Mr. Weinstein’s lawyers. “I would caution you about the tentacles of your public relations juggernaut.”
The jurors were not in the courtroom at the time. As in many high-profile cases, jurors have been reminded every day by the judge not to follow any news media coverage of the case.
The judge’s order came just before he gave the jury final instructions. The panel of seven men and five women began deliberating at 11:30 a.m.
A half-hour later, the jurors sent a note to the judge asking for definitions of legal terms like consent and forcible compulsion, as well as written definitions of the charges against Mr. Weinstein and whether they could find him guilty of certain combinations of charges.
Mr. Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty in State Supreme Court in Manhattan to five felony charges, including rape, criminal sexual assault and predatory sexual assault.
The main charges in the indictment rest on the testimony of two women: Miriam Haley, a former production assistant who said the producer forced oral sex on her at his home in 2006, and Jessica Mann, a former actress who accused him of raping her in a Midtown Manhattan hotel in 2013.
But prosecutors are also using the testimony of the actress Annabella Sciorra, who said Mr. Weinstein raped her in the early 1990s, to bolster the charge that he is a sexual predator, even though the alleged attack is too old to be charged as a separate crime.
In their first note, the jurors also asked for an explanation about why the statute of limitations prevented a conviction based solely on Ms. Sciorra’s account. Her testimony was pivotal because if the jury finds her credible and also finds Mr. Weinstein guilty of sexually assaulting Ms. Haley or Ms. Mann, he can be found guilty of predatory sexual assault, which carries a life sentence.
To demonstrate a pattern of abuse, three other women were allowed to testify about their accusations that Mr. Weinstein sexually assaulted them. But he is not charged with crimes in those cases.
Shortly after 3 p.m., the jurors sent out a second note requesting the layout of Mr. Weinstein’s Manhattan loft, suggesting they were reviewing Ms. Haley’s allegation that the producer forced her to let him perform oral sex on her there in 2006. The jury also requested three emails in which Mr. Weinstein had listed people — he called them “red flags” — he wanted an Israeli intelligence firm, Black Cube, to investigate. Ms. Sciorra was on that list.
The argument in the morning was the third time the prosecution had called Ms. Rotunno’s public comments into question since the trial began with jury selection on Jan. 6.
Last month, prosecutors requested a gag order after Ms. Rotunno criticized Mr. Weinstein’s accusers in interviews with reporters. They made the same complaint after she participated in a New York Times podcast, in which she said, among other things, that she had never been sexually assaulted “because I would never put myself in that position.”
Prosecutors said Ms. Rotunno had also, in The Times’s podcast, called the accusers liars who were seeking fame. At the time, the judge warned the defense not to talk about the witnesses.
On Sunday, Ms. Rotunno took a new approach, addressing the jury of seven men and five women directly in her 284-word opinion piece in Newsweek.
“I implore the members of this jury to do what they know is right and was expected of them from the moment they were called upon to serve their civic duty in a court of law,” she wrote.
“The facts are the facts. Harvey Weinstein is innocent,” she went on. “His fate hangs in the balance, and the world is watching.”
Ms. Illuzzi, who read an excerpt from Ms. Rotunno’s essay, asked Justice Burke to order that Mr. Weinstein be held in custody during the jury deliberations. She suggested that the film producer was behind the decision to make a last-minute appeal to the jury through Newsweek.
“It is 100 percent inappropriate behavior,” Ms. Illuzzi said. “No way Ms. Rotunno did this without the prompting and encouragement and the knowledge and the permission of this defendant. It cannot be allowed in this courtroom or any courtroom in the country.”
Ms. Rotunno told the judge that she was seeking to counter the prosecution’s narrative that Mr. Weinstein is a predator.
“It is one small piece of a large media attack on Mr. Weinstein every single day and for the D.A.’s office to act like they don't talk to the media just because their name isn’t in the article is ridiculous,” Ms. Rotunno said. “I did not say anything beyond the bounds of what our system should do.”

Weinstein’s Lawyer Says Accusers Had a Choice in Sexual Encounters
During closing arguments, the defense said Harvey Weinstein was a victim of “overzealous prosecution.”
By Jan Ransom and Alan Feuer | Published Feb. 13, 2020 Updated Feb. 15, 2020 | New York Times | Posted February 21, 2020 |
A lawyer for Harvey Weinstein told jurors on Thursday that he was the victim of an “overzealous prosecution” and that prosecutors were acting like moviemakers, inventing an alternative world in which women are not responsible for their own behavior.
During a five-hour closing argument, the lawyer, Donna Rotunno, argued that Mr. Weinstein’s accusers had chosen to engage in consensual and often transactional relationships with him to advance their own careers.
Ms. Rotunno said prosecutors from the Manhattan district attorney’s office had woven “a sinister tale” during Mr. Weinstein’s rape trial, depicting him as a monster and his accusers as innocent, passive victims. But, she asserted, the prosecution lacked the evidence to prove it.
“In their story, they have created a universe that strips adult women of common sense, autonomy, and responsibility,” she said. “In their universe women are not responsible for the parties they attend, the men they flirt with, the choices they make to further their own careers, the hotel room invitations, the plane tickets they accept, the jobs they ask for help to obtain.”
The trial is widely seen as a watershed moment for the #MeToo movement, which gained momentum in October 2017 after Mr. Weinstein was publicly accused of assaulting and harassing numerous women.
Mr. Weinstein, 67, a former powerhouse producer in Hollywood known for films like “Pulp Fiction” and “Shakespeare in Love,” has pleaded not guilty to five felony charges, including rape, criminal sexual assault and predatory sexual assault. Prosecutors will present closing remarks on Friday. The jury of seven men and five women will begin deliberating on Tuesday.
Ms. Rotunno said her client had become “a target of a cause and of a movement.” She implored the jury not to give in to public pressure, but to focus on the facts in the case.
“You don’t have to like Mr. Weinstein — this is not a popularity contest. But you have to remember that we are not here to criminalize morality,” Ms. Rotunno said, adding moments later: “If you had to look at the evidence alone from their perspective, they lose.”
For a month, Mr. Weinstein listened as six women took the stand and testified that he had sexually assaulted them. He declined to testify himself.
He faces charges based on the allegations of only two of his accusers: Jessica Mann, a former actress who testified that he raped her in a Midtown Manhattan hotel in 2013, and Miriam Haley, a former production assistant on his show “Project Runway,” who said he forced oral sex on her at his TriBeCa apartment in 2006.
Both women acknowledged on cross-examination that they not only had friendly communications with Mr. Weinstein after their alleged attacks, but later had consensual sex with him.
The presiding judge, Justice James M. Burke, allowed four other women to testify about their own encounters so that prosecutors can establish a pattern of behavior, even though their allegations are too old to be charged as crimes under New York State law. The actress Annabella Sciorra, for instance, took the stand under the legal theory that her testimony would support the charges of predatory sexual assault, which carry a life sentence.
Ms. Sciorra testified that Mr. Weinstein pushed his way into her apartment and raped her after giving her a ride home from a dinner party in the early 1990s. The other accusers — Tarale Wulff, Dawn Dunning and Lauren Young — were all aspiring actresses who said Mr. Weinstein lured them to hotels on the pretense of helping their careers, and then sexually assaulted them.
Over and over, Ms. Rotunno returned to her central theme that Mr. Weinstein’s accusers were not passive victims of assaults, but active participants in consensual acts. “Women have choices,” she said.
Ms. Rotunno said that Ms. Haley’s relationship with Mr. Weinstein was something close to a romance, which began after he had gotten her the “Project Runway” job. “They have to label it as a professional relationship because if they labeled it as what it was, we wouldn’t be here,” Ms. Rotunno said.
Ms. Haley had also used Mr. Weinstein to further her career, Ms. Rotunno said, and had kept in touch with him through seemingly friendly emails well after she said he had attacked them. One email asked how Mr. Weinstein was doing and was signed “lots of love.”
“She was using him for jobs,” Ms. Rotunno said.
Ms. Rotunno argued that what Ms. Mann had described as a rape was sex between consenting adults. She said the evidence showed that Ms. Mann went willingly to Mr. Weinstein’s hotel room, got undressed and laid down on his bed. Ms. Mann never tried to stop Mr. Weinstein, and after the encounter, the lawyer said, she went to brunch with him.
“This is not rape,” Ms. Rotunno said. “This is not sexual assault. This is someone who agrees to do what had been discussed.”
Ms. Rotunno highlighted dozens of friendly and sometimes flirtatious emails Ms. Mann had sent to Mr. Weinstein from 2013 to 2017. Each time Ms. Mann got a new telephone number, Ms. Rotunno noted, she made sure Mr. Weinstein had it. “Five or six times she says, ‘Oh, here’s my new number,’” Ms. Rotunno said.
Ms. Sciorra, who gave some of the strongest testimony, had misremembered what happened, the defense lawyer argued. She pointed to evidence the actress had told a friend at the time that “she did something crazy” with Mr. Weinstein, but did not describe the encounter as rape.
Yet when a reporter reached out to Ms. Sciorra in 2017 about Mr. Weinstein’s treatment of women, Ms. Rotunno said: “She has changed her memories, and now she was raped. Now she is the darling of a movement.”
Ms. Rotunno said Ms. Young, Ms. Wulff and Ms. Dunning had also changed their stories over time, and she suggested they came forward only in the interest of fame.
She urged the jurors to consider how Mr. Weinstein’s accusers behaved and what they said in communications with him. The prosecution, she said, had created a fictional world — a “story that they spun” — where “women have no free will and no choice.”
“In that world, facts don’t matter,” Ms. Rotunno said. “In this world, facts matter. Evidence matters.”

Weinstein Has the ‘Mark of a Predator,’ Prosecutor Says as Trial Nears End
Harvey Weinstein stayed in touch with women he assaulted to ensure their silence, a prosecutor said in her closing argument.
By Jan Ransom and Alan Feuer | Published Feb. 14, 2020, Updated Feb. 18, 2020 | New York Times | Posted February 21, 2020 |
A prosecutor said on Friday that the Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was “an abusive rapist” and “a predator” who used his power to manipulate and assault several women in the movie business, then stayed in touch with them to ensure their silence and compliance.
“He had a surefire insurance policy: That the witnesses were standing in line to get into his universe,” Joan Illuzzi, an assistant district attorney, told the jury during her closing arguments at Mr. Weinstein’s rape trial.
“The universe is run by me,” she added, adopting Mr. Weinstein’s point of view, “therefore they don’t get to complain when they’re stepped on, spit on, demoralized and yes, raped and abused by the defendant.”
Ms. Illuzzi’s summation of Mr. Weinstein’s tactic — “trick and surprise,” she called it — was a dramatic finale to the trial in State Supreme Court in Manhattan, which has emerged as a watershed moment for the #MeToo movement.
In her presentation, Ms. Illuzzi returned repeatedly to the difference in power between Mr. Weinstein — “a giant” in the film industry — and his accusers, who worked as cocktail waitresses or models and were trying to break into the film industry.
“It is a complete dichotomy,” she said. “Here is the defendant with everything using and abusing people who he knows has nothing.”
Mr. Weinstein, 67, has pleaded not guilty to five felony charges in the case — including rape, criminal sexual assault and predatory sexual assault — which carry a maximum penalty of life in prison.
Six women testified at trial that he had sexually assaulted them, though he faces charges in connection with only two of them. The others were allowed to testify to establish a pattern of behavior.
On Thursday, his lawyers made their own closing pitch to the jury, claiming that he himself had been the victim of an “overzealous prosecution” and that the six women who took the stand to accuse him of assault and other crimes were not passive victims, but active participants in ongoing and often transactional relationships.
Standing before the jury on Friday, Ms. Illuzzi sought to counter that narrative, arguing that Mr. Weinstein purposefully maintained ties with his victims to keep them under his control.
“He made sure he had contact with the people he was worried about,” Ms. Illuzzi said, adding, “That’s the mark of a predator.”
The indictment rests on the accusations of two women: Miriam Haley, a former reality television show production assistant who testified that Mr. Weinstein forcibly performed oral sex on her at his TriBeCa apartment in 2006; and Jessica Mann, an aspiring actress from a small town in Washington State, who claimed he raped her in a Midtown Manhattan hotel room in 2013.
Both women acknowledged during cross-examination that they not only had friendly interactions with Mr. Weinstein after their alleged attacks, but later had consensual sex with him.
Four other women also testified that Mr. Weinstein attacked them in various ways — among them, the actress Annabella Sciorra, best known for her role in “The Sopranos.” She testified last month that Mr. Weinstein pushed his way into her Gramercy Park apartment in the winter months of 1993 or 1994 then violently raped her even as she kicked and punched him.
Prosecutors are using her testimony to support the top charge of predatory sexual assault, which carries a possible life sentence.
The accusations of Ms. Sciorra and three other accusers were barred by the statute of limitations from being charged as separate crimes. Still, the presiding judge, Justice James M. Burke allowed them to take the stand to bolster the prosecution’s contention that Mr. Weinstein engaged in a pattern of abusive behavior over decades.
Ms. Illuzzi stood directly in front of the jury delivering closing remarks in a conversational style and the occasional lighthearted quips. She began her closing remarks with the prosecution’s strongest witness: Ms. Sciorra.
The prosecutor acknowledged Ms. Sciorra never reported the alleged rape to the police, but she did tell her friend and fellow actress, Rosie Perez, though in veiled terms.
Not reporting the assault left Ms. Sciorra, who soon began self-harming, a damaged woman and made her vulnerable to further abuse by Mr. Weinstein, the prosecutor said. “The defendant knew her now as a weak link, a weak mark he could get again,” Ms. Illuzzi said.
Mr. Weinstein sought to control Ms. Sciorra again in August 2017, Ms. Illuzzi said, as rumors began to swirl that journalists were going to expose his sexual misconduct. That month, Mr. Weinstein hired an Israeli intelligence firm, Black Cube, to investigate certain “red flags” like Ms. Sciorra, whom Mr. Weinstein believed were speaking to reporters.
Ms. Illuzzi focused the jury’s attention on an email dated Oct. 26, 2017. In it, Mr. Weinstein instructed a subordinate to handle questions from Ronan Farrow of The New Yorker about his relationship with Ms. Sciorra by saying, “We are going to say it was consensual or deny it.”
“Truth be damned,” Ms. Illuzzi said, referring to his email. Then she told the jury, “I submit to you, that’s a confession.”
In the defense’s closing arguments on Thursday, Donna Rotunno, Mr. Weinstein’s lead lawyer, said several times that the accusers in the case had chosen to engage in consensual sex with him to advance their careers, and their decisions to visit Mr. Weinstein in hotels and at his apartment supported that argument.
On Friday, however, Ms. Illuzzi took direct issue with that position. “When an adult goes to another adult’s home, should they expect that they’re going to have to engage in sex?” she asked the jury.
Ms. Illuzzi was talking about Ms. Haley, who testified that when she visited Mr. Weinstein at his Manhattan loft, he pulled her into a bedroom, pushed her onto a bed, held her down and forcibly performed oral sex on her.
“This is a crime and a wanton disregard for other people,” Ms. Illuzzi said.
She later suggested that Mr. Weinstein could have hired sex workers, but had instead targeted women who badly wanted to break into the business: “Maybe his kink,” she said, “is the fear in their eyes.”
Toward the end of her statement, Ms. Illuzzi turned her attention toward Ms. Mann, the aspiring actress who earlier this month gave a complicated and emotional account of how Mr. Weinstein raped her during a long relationship that included some consensual sex.
Ms. Mann’s testimony was emblematic of the difficult questions that the jury will ultimately have to wrestle with when they begin their deliberations as early as Tuesday. Did the fact that some of the women benefited professionally from their association with Mr. Weinstein suggest their relationships with him were consensual and transactional? And does the fact some of his accusers also had consensual sex with him undermine their claim that he on other occasions sexually assaulted them?
Ms. Illuzzi addressed those questions head-on.
“The question is not whether or not Jessica made a bad decision,” Ms. Illuzzi told the jury. “The question for you is whether or not Jessica Mann is lying about it. She’s telling you the truth. She’s the victim of rape.”
“She could have been writing him love notes every single day,” Ms. Illuzzi added. “She could have been married to him. It still wouldn’t make a difference. He still would not be allowed to rape her.”

Misery Meat by Lady Macabre Beth
"I salute him! I salute him!" Auntie shouts as she pulls out a peace sign.
"Why do you love him?"
"Because I'm sure he'll bring back the funpanadas!"
"What are funpanadas?"
"It was popular during his father's day. So delicious! I can't wait! It was my childhood!" Ecstatic, auntie pulls out a shirt lined with red and green and wears it.
"Jill, you should be grateful. Your generation will finally taste it. Heck, I won't even mind applying as a factory worker there. I'd get all the funpanadas I can." She grabs a ring with a ruby and emerald conjoined from her dresser. "Okay, auntie's got to bounce now."
"Where are you going, auntie?"
"To apply at the funpanada factory! Woohoo!" Auntie heads out with her red and green shirt, tote bag, and straw hat. "Take care, auntie!"
"Bye!"
"Bye," Jill responds as she shuts the door and turns on the television. It opened to the news right away.
"Today, the missing 12-year-old Santino Perez has been succeeded by 16 more. It includes Gabriel Samson, Maria Estrella, Pocholo Sison..."
"Always remember to lock the doors at 5 pm. Don't accept any visitors. Accept only those who knock three times. That would be me. Remember that the alligators eat kids who forget to lock the door." Jill recalled the voice of her auntie warning her. She quickly shut the windows and doors and locked them. Afterward, Jill felt her heart beating fast.
Finally, she returned to the sofa and watched television. The news quickly shifted to a funpanada commercial.
Are you sick of your children disobeying you?
Are you tired of the lack of discipline they have?
Worry no more!
Everything is fun! Fun! Fun!
With Funpanadas, your children will be motivated to get home by 5 pm.
Its sweet and soft beef empanada will encourage them to earn the rewards of a disciplined life.
Funtastic! Funpanadas! It's more fun at home by 5 pm!
Knock. Knock. Knock. Suddenly, Jill was caught off guard by three knocks. That must be Auntie. She thought. She quickly headed to the door. "Auntie!" To her surprise, a delivery man in green appeared instead. He had a frail body, a big smile, and bloodshot eyes. "One box of Funpanadas for Ms. Jillian Alcantara."
"Uh...uh, I didn't order one," Jill responded with her head down while fidgeting with her right hand. "It was delivered to you from your Auntie Jo Anne. She says she won't be able to come home. She started working at the factory. She says for you to eat this for dinner." He hands over a green box. Seen from the outside were six pieces of funpanadas. "T-thanks," Jill responded as she received the funpanadas and shut the door.
As she dropped the box on the dining table, she looked at the clock and noticed it was already 7 pm. It was beyond curfew hours. That's strange, She thought. Deliveries aren't allowed beyond curfew too. Anyhow, she opened the box and took her first bite.
"Mhmm." She moaned.
There was something different about the funpanada. It was a far cry from the typical empanadas. The beef was sweeter and softer than the salty ones familiar to Jill. Finally, she grabbed a second bite. It was all soft until her teeth hit something metallic. "Ouch." She inspected the insides of the empanada until she found a ring that had a conjoined ruby and emerald gem. Her hands started trembling until the empanada dropped to the floor. Tears slowly poured from her eyes as she uttered, "A-a-auntie."
Suddenly, she purged the meat until her sight blacked out.
The following morning, the theme music of the nation played on the megaphone. It awakened Jill. When she opened her eyes, vomit was all over her hands, feet, and clothes. There were bits of meat on the floor. And then she remembered who she devoured last night. Her mouth started twitching as tears poured out of her eyes.
Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! "Salutations!" The voice of a soldier chanted from outside. Quickly, she wiped her tears and headed to the door. As she opened it, the soldier held up a peace sign. "I salute him!" He chanted. Jill gave a big smile with bloodshot eyes and held up a peace sign.
"I-I-I salute him."

Hello? Yes, this is Atty. Fontanilla from Happy Firm. How may I help you? Okay, Just text to me the address and I’ll go there right away.
RIGUEL fixes his things quickly before leaving the coffee shop then suddenly RIGUEL bumps on VERONICA. Veronica’s coffee spilled on her dress.
VERONICA
(in a yelling tone)
Excuse me?! Are you blind?!
RIGUEL
(Leaving the place in a hurry)
I’m sorry, miss!
VERONICA
(Staring at him badly)
How rude!
(Scene 2)
Afternoon. At the Crime Scene. In a condo unit. POLICEMEN are all around. The cadaver on the floor. RIGUEL goes straight to the INVESTIGATOR to tell him that he is assigned to investigate the crime.
Subsequently, VERONICA comes in. RIGUEL leaves.
VERONICA
(whispering)
What is he doing here?
ANIKA
(In confusion)
Why? Do you know him?
VERONICA
(In a pissed tone)
No, but all I know is that he’s an annoying guy who ruined my day just couple of minutes ago.
ANIKA
But that guy happened to be your opponent. He is Attorney Fontanilla, the lawyer of the accused.
VERONICA
(In shock)
What?! He’s a lawyer? He didn’t even say sorry properly earlier and now he’s acting like a hero here? Fighting for justice? Hah! Let me show him what a real lawyer is.
ANIKA
Veronica Perez Garcia, what are you planning to do?
VERONICA
(Smirks)
Nothing. Let’s just go and start looking for evidences we can use against that Fontanilla-annoying-guy.
(Scene 3)
VERONICA goes outside the CA Department
A STRANGER suddenly holds her hand.
STRANGER
(Begs)
Ms. Garcia, please help me, my son is innocent.
VERONICA
(Talks softly)
Sir---wait, please stop grabbing my hand. Sir, please let go. There’s nothing I can do anymore.
STANGER
(Begging)
No, I need you to listen. My son is innocent but now he’s in the prison.
RIGUEL parks his car. Hears a COMMOTION. Goes to the scene. Sees VERONICA being harassed.
RIGUEL
Sir, let go of her hand. If you refused to, we could file a case against you.
STRANGER
(softly)
Ms. Garcia, please reconsider. I really need your help.
RIGUEL
(In a concerned tone)
Are you alright, Miss? What does he need from you?
VERONICA
(Raging)
None of your business!
RIGUEL
(In a confused tone)
Wait, why are you shouting at me instead of saying thank you? What did I do?
VERONICA
(Sarcastic)
Well, as far as I remember, we bumped at each other yesterday in the coffee shop and you threw my coffee but wait there’s more, you also ruined my dress!
RIGUEL
(Apologetic)
Oh right, I am so sorry. I didn’t mean it, it’s just that I’m in a hurry. If you want, I could replace that coffee today, if you are free.
VERONICA
(shrugs off)
Fine. Let’s go for a coffee, just meet me on the same coffee shop.
(Scene 4)
VERONICA and RIGUEL walks into a coffee shop. Buys a coffee. THEY decide to go home.
VERONICA
Thanks for the coffee, Mr. Fontanilla.
RIGUEL
Welcome, I owe you one. By the way, just call me Riguel, Mr. Fontanilla is too formal.
VERONICA goes inside her car, but it won’t start.
VERONICA
(pissed tone)
This car is just fine earlier!
RIGUEL
(Concerned)
What happened?
VERONICA
I don’t know. It just won’t start.
RIGUEL tries to fix VERONICA’S car but in the end, RIGUEL also gave up.
RIGUEL
I’ll just give you a ride if it’s okay with you.
VERONICA
(Shy and hesitant)
No, it’s fine. I’ll just take a cab.
RIGUEL
(insisting tone)
Again, I insist. It’s getting late and what if that man is still following you?
By the way, where do you live?
VERONICA
Hillsborough Park but if you’re out of the way, I’ll just take a cab.
RIGUEL
(Surprised)
What? You mean, we live in the same neighborhood?
VERONICA
(Astonishes)
Really? What a coincidence.
RIGUEL
Yes, so there’s no way you’re taking a cab.
THEY leave the coffee shop. Goes straight to VERONICA’s house. THEY arrive. RIGUEL opens the door for VERONICA.
VERONICA
Thank you for today.
RIGUEL
(Apologetic)
No problem. I’m sorry for making a bad impression yesterday.
VERONICA
(Goodbye tone)
Forget it. You should go home, it’s already late. Thank you for the coffee and ride.
(Scene 5)
Next morning, RIGUEL sees VERONICA walking while on his way to work. He beeps his car.
VERONICA
(surprised)
Oh my God!
RIGUEL
(laughs)
What’s making you frown so early in the morning?
VERONICA
(irritated tone)
You almost gave me a heart attack! I’m just pissed off because my car is not working.
RIGUEL
Still not? Come on, hop in.
VERONICA
(agreeing tone)
What? No! I don’t want to be a burden and besides, it looks like you have a work?
RIGUEL
Yeah, but I still have hours before my work.
VERONICA
Fine, whatever.
RIGUEL starts the engine and drive to her office.
VERONICA
So, what’s your work?
RIGUEL
(mocking tone)
Getting to know each other stage, huh?
VERONICA
(reacts with disbelief)
Stop assuming please, I’m just curious.
RIGUEL
(cleared his throat and started to be serious)
I am a lawyer and I work for Happy Firm. How about you? I saw you yesterday in CA Department of Justice Riverside.
VERONICA
Technically, I work there, I run errands for them.
VERONICA’s stomach grumbles.
VERONICA
(Surprised and laughs)
Oh my God, that’s definitely not my tummy!
RIGUEL
(embarrassed tone)
Fine, it’s mine! But let me explain, I usually don’t eat my breakfast because, first, I’m always early for work and second, no one cooks for me so I don’t really have time for it.
VERONICA
(concerned face)
Do you want to eat first? We can drive thru from the fast food nearby our office.
RIGUEL
No, it’s fine. I’m used to it. Besides, you’ll be late.
VERONICA
Okay, if you say so.
They arrive in their offices and bid goodbye. RIGUEL sees VERONICA walking again outside their subdivision and asks her to hop in his car.
RIGUEL
(asks Veronica with a jolly face)
Hey Veronica! Hop in, I’ll drive you into your office.
What’s that? Why do you have an excess bag?
VERONICA
(joyfully handed the paper bag to Riguel)
Oh, this for you! Since, you’re driving me to my work and even driving me to home. I’ll cook for you in exchange.
RIGUEL
(surprised)
Wow, thank you. I really appreciate it.
VERONICA
No problem, I’ll just leave it here later. So, how’s work?
RIGUEL
(frowns)
It’s fine but a bit stressful. I’m handling a murder case. I’m fighting for the accused, I don’t know but they kept on blaming him even though the evidences are not pointing him. Something’s wrong.
VERONICA
(inquisitive)
What makes you think that he is not the killer?
RIGUEL
(confident)
I just know and after all, he’s my client.
Months had passed, it's been a routine for them to come to work and eat breakfast together. One day…
RIGUEL patiently waits for VERONICA outside her house. Eventually RIGUEL decides to go.
(Scene 6)
RIGUEL enters the court and sees VERONICA standing on the other side with the family of the victim. Upon seeing VERONICA, RIGUEL has realizations until the hearing ends that leads for veronica to win the case and he concluded that she used him to win her case.
JUDGE
Members of the jury, attorneys, and court personnel, thank you for the respect that you have given the law. However, as you leave the court, remember that you have a duty to uphold the oath of confidentiality concerning these proceedings. I hereby declare the trial adjourned.
The JUDGE bangs the gavel. RIGUEL walks out from the court. VERONICA chases him.
VERONICA
(teary eye)
Riguel, wait, let me explain!
VERONICA chases RIGUEL.
RIGUEL
(disappointed)
Go ahead, explain how you fooled me all this time.
VERONICA
Fooled? I never did that! It was never my intention to make you feel this way. I’m sorry, please believe me.
RIGUEL
(sarcasm and mockery)
You’re really a good actress, huh. You even cooked for me and all but then all of those were front act? To spy on me and win this case then congratulations because you succeed!
VERONICA
(gently)
Okay, at first, I saw you at the crime scene of this case then that time, I was mad at you. I was so determined to show you that I am better than you but believe me, I never planned for this to happen. I never planned to spy on you or what. I am not that shallow!
RIGUEL
(shouts)
Do you think I’ll believe on you? After everything you’ve done? After showing up here out of nowhere?
VERONICA
(teary eyes)
I am sorry.
RIGUEL
(shouting)
I asked you, right? I asked you about your work and you told me you’ll just run errands for the office but just a few minutes ago, you stood up there, accusing someone!
VERONICA
(cracking voice)
Yes, but that’s because I still don’t know you enough that time. That’s why I didn’t tell you about my job. I’m sorry. I promise, I won’t lie to you again.
RIGUEL
I’m sorry but you missed your chance. I won’t let you lie to me again.
VERONICA
(tears started to fall down)
I love you. I really do. Please, believe me.
RIGUEL
(frustrated and disappointed)
You didn’t love me. You used me. For God sake, I am not an object! But you treated me like one. But you know what’s more painful? After everything you’ve done, after you0 lied to me, I still love you but I can’t stand being with you knowing that you succeed by ruining someone else’s life. Congratulations, Veronica!
VERONICA
(shouting and crying heavily)
Riguel!
(Scene 7)
After three months, Veronica is promoted and sent to another place because of the case she won against Riguel.
EMPLOYEE
Good morning Ms. Veronica!
VERONICA smells the EMPLOYEE’S PERFUME. VERONICA thinks about RIGUEL
EMPLOYEE
(concerned tone)
Ms. Veronica, are you alright?
VERONICA
(jolted tone)
I’m sorry, I just remembered someone.
The EMPLOYEE exits. VERONICA goes to Backyard Brew, the coffee shop where VERONICA and RIGUEL first met.
VERONICA orders a COFFEE and spills accidentally to RIGUEL
VERONICA
Oh my God, I’m sorry, sir.
RIGUEL
(cold voice)
It’s fine.
VERONICA looks at the guy (RIGUEL) as she hears RIGUEL’S voice.
VERONICA
(In shock)
Riguel? Oh my God, it’s me, Veronica. How have you been?
RIGUEL
(in frustration)
I have to go, I’m sorry.
VERONICA
(sobbing)
Wait, Riguel, I have to take this chance because if I didn’t, I might regret again not only for three months but for the rest of my life. Riguel, I still love you.
RIGUEL
(emotionless)
Veronica, when I told you I love you, I really do and after we fought, I just wanted space to think but you, you chose to walk away. I even waited for you, but I realized something, waiting for you was like waiting for the stars to go down, it’s useless and disappointing.

It’s Hot in the Hamptons, but Cool in Brooklyn
It’s a consolation for the rest of us that skinny people also sweat, even ones who are expensively dressed.
More than 100 elegant guests attended dinner in mid-90-degree heat Saturday, at the Sunset Beach resort on Shelter Island, N.Y. It had been temporarily rebranded the “Chanel J12 Yacht Club” to promote a line of watches, which were the only things at the restaurant given an air-conditioned room: one diamond-spackled version sells for $273,000.
Guests included David Neville, a founder of Rag & Bone, and his wife, Gucci Westman, the cosmetics entrepreneur; Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, the Proenza Schouler designers; and more “It” girls than an Addams family reunion: Kristine Froseth, Phoebe Tonkin, Soo Joo Park, Camila Morrone, Melissa Barrera, Maude Apatow, Pom Klementieff, Poppy Delevingne and Lauren Santo Domingo. They glistened in the heat like Ursula Andress emerging from the sea in “Dr. No.”
“Thankfully, the dewy skin look is in,” said Rachel Zoe, the stylist, who was wearing a silk resort dress with chunky gold heels and a vintage gold clutch.
Her tip for looking chic in the heat? “I always go for shimmer on the eyes, and caftans — because you can’t really tell if you’re sweating or not.” Finally, the tyrant sun gave way to an orange moon. Waiters produced platters of baked clams and grilled branzino, as flashes of heat lightning illuminated the night sky.
Billie Eilish, the 17-year-old emo phenom, performed after dinner. She was accompanied on keyboard by Finneas, her producer-brother, who styles his name one word, all caps, as if he is shouting.
Ms. Eilish wore an oversize acid green T-shirt with Chanel’s interlocking “C” logo spray painted across the front, along with ropes of jewelry spelling out the label’s name. Even her orthopedic boot, souvenir of a recent sprained ankle, was wrapped in a Chanel scarf.
Wasn’t the aggressive luxury branding at odds with her angsty music and teenage fan base?
“Dude, this generation loves vintage,” she said, as if explaining something obvious. “That logo, the backward Cs? Dude, that’s just iconic.”
Boys to Men
If anyone knows how to stay cool, it must be the Beastie Boys.
The rap trio’s surviving members, Michael Diamond (known to fans as “Mike D”) and Adam Horovitz (a.k.a. “Ad-Rock”), were at an exhibition space in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn on Monday night to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their second studio album, “Paul’s Boutique.”
How have they managed to stay hip for three decades?
“It takes a lot of hard work,” Mr. Horovitz said, deadpan. “It’s a lot of training, a lot of lessons.”
“You have to go to cool school and get a Ph.D. in cool,” Mr. Diamond added.
The celebration took place at “Beyond the Streets,” a temporary exhibit on graffiti and street art that includes the “Kilroy was here” motto scrawled by American servicemen during World War II, and contemporary figures like André Saraiva and Shepard Fairey. Limited-edition Beastie Boys sneakers, released by Adidas Skateboarding for the occasion, were for sale in the gift shop.
After an oddly genteel reception (waiters served rosé and passed trays of mini coconut-lemon pies), LL Cool J interviewed the rappers for an hour. Rosie Perez, the actress, sat in the front row, while Stretch Armstrong, the D.J., cued tracks from “Paul’s Boutique.” A dramatic thunderstorm raged over the Manhattan skyline.
The album, overflowing with samples, had some tepid reviews and wasn’t a huge commercial success when it was released in 1989. But it has aged well and is now regarded by many critics as a hip-hop masterpiece.
The singers ruefully recalled their label, Capitol Records, withdrawing support from the album in order to put resources behind a more promising rival artist.
“Donny Osmond,” Mr. Horovitz said with a sigh. He added that many of the label’s top executives were replaced shortly afterward.
“Everyone got fired because of us,” Mr. Diamond said.

Solar Opposites in: Ultra Opposites: “Lost Memories” (for @avaveevo)
One fine day, in a courtroom…
Custody Judge: What is your hearing of this?
Sonya: My new dads’ actions have been positive ma’am. They know my allergies, know what kind of classes I take, the schedules I usually have and my favorite things
Custody Judge: Very well.
Once the Custody Judge slams her gavel, Sonya arrives back home after the taxi ride and in joy runs inside where her family is waiting for.
Korvo: So…
Terry: How did it go?
Sonya cries with happiness.
Sonya: I’m officially an Solar-Opposites
The others gasp. The Pupa faints.
Korvo: Oh joy! This is a great occasion! Solars, we have a new addition to the family!
AISHA: Alright! I wonder where Nova is… were you about to meet her?
Korvo: Oh why yes. I wonder where she is…
Meanwhile with Nova, at her apartment she was waiting for Sherbet, who just came in.
Sherbet: Hey Nova. I heard you wanted to see me. Is everything okay?
Nova: Sherbet… I know about what happened to your parents… Sherbet gets stunned in silence and I am so sorry… that you have lost everything…
Sherbet starts crying.
Nova: soothes Sherbet’s face But don’t worry. You’re not gonna be alone anymore… because… I’m gonna take care of you.
Sherbet is confused.
Sherbet: What do you mean?
Nova smiles.
Nova: Sherbet, I’m gonna adopt you. You were one of the kindest people I ever met.
Sherbet is surprised.
Nova: Now is time for to return the favor.
Sherbet: But… I thought you gave up on that when Halk died…
Nova wipes away a tear.
Nova: I know. But you deserve a family Sherbet, and I love to start one right now, with you. As my daughter. You are not gonna be alone anymore Sherbet, because I love you.
Sherbet smiles and hugs Nova.
Sherbet: Thank you Nova…
Nova cries with happiness. Later back at the Solars… in the Replicants’ room, Yumyulack was cleaning up, while listening to Jesse McCartney’s “Because You Live”:
Yumyulack: God damn it! Now I gotta deal with the fact that I am now living with two sisters. No wait! Three since it counts Pupa’s human form is a girl!
EVA: What are you complaining about?
AISHA: Yeah. You already know Sonya. She is the sweetest person we ever met. So did you and you like her. So come on, turn that frown upside down honey.
Yumyulack groans in frustration.
Yumyulack: What about Korvo? He hasn’t seen his sister in years!
EVA: I know. And he was heartbroken and so was she. These two love each other no matter what and cheer up Yumyulack. You known Sonya since you got her and become your friend. Chin up
Yumyulack blushes and smiles.
Yumyulack: I guess that’s true.
Sonya then comes in with Jesse while putting her stuff on her new bed.
Sonya: Thanks for lending me your room guys.
Jesse: Anytime, sis.
Yumyulack: Yeah. Good to have ya here, sis. Sorry for venting a little, it’s just you know…
Sonya: Yeah. I know
Sonya hugs Yumyulack. Yumyulack blushes as he smiles and pats Sonya’s head.
Jesse: Welcome to your new home Sonya and besides what’s the worse that can-
Suddenly, the Ultra Opposites alarm goes off.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Oh shit!
AISHA: EMERGENCY MEETING, PEOPLE!
Korvo and Terry: On it!
Yumyulack and Jesse: On it!
Sonya: What’s-
Korvo: Sonya! Stay with Aisha and Eva! We’ll be right back!
Sonya sighs and smiles.
Sonya: One day… I’m gonna get my chance!
Terry kisses Sonya on the forehead. Later at the HQ, all the Ultra Opposites meet up.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Okay, we’re all here! What’s the emergency?!
AISHA: You guys are not gonna like it but…
EVA shows something on the screen.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: No way….
Terry/Solar Flare: Dr. Brian?!
Yumyulack/Psylock: What is he upto?!
AISHA: He made a memory eraser device!
Ultra Opposites: What?! Oh no! Oh fuck! We gotta be careful! That self-centered jerkface!
Legendary Super Shlorpian growls.
EVA: If he hits anyone, someone could get hurt. They can even lose his memory.
Janiz/Lady Super Shlorpian: Oh no… does he know about Sonya?
EVA: Who knows?!
Terry/Solar Flare: Aw man, Korvo! He can’t know about Sonya! He could use something bad to her!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: I’ll stop him.
Cherie/Agent Red: So will we our friend!

Terry/Solar Flare: Shit! We better follow him!
Meanwhile with Dr. Brain.
Dr. Brian: Yes! This will definitely destroy the pathetic heroes once and for all! Now to wait until the Legendary Super Shlorpian comes with his friends and pathetic husband!

Sonya: Hmm?
Sonya sees the orb crystal piece glowing as she gasp.
Sonya: Weird…
Then, the orb piece crashes through the window as she gasp.
Sonya: I didn’t do it!
Sonya then notice the crystal floating towards her, she touches it with a finger tip and suddenly, Sonya starts floating
Sonya: Woah.
Sonya then falls as do the crystal. Sonya looks at the orb piece.
Sonya: No way….
The orb piece then merges with Sonya as she gasp. Sonya then starts to fly as she giggles.
Sonya: Whoa.
Sonya then sees her bed and suddenly, she lifts it with only one hand. Sonya has developed super strength and flight! Sonya gasps.
Sonya: Looks this smallest kid, just become the stronger!
Sonya twirls the bed around with her strength and then place it down on the floor.
Sonya: Let’s see what I can really do!
Sonya then flies off to find Legendary Super Shlorpian to tell him the news, and then sees him confronting Dr. Brian. Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian gasps as he sees Sonya.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Sonya? You’re flying?!
Sonya: KORVO! KORVO! GUESS WHAT?! I AM STRONG AND I CAN FLY! ISN’T IT AMAZING?!
Dr. Brian: What the?! Who is this fucking human runt?!

Suddenly, Sonya gasp upon seeing the laser. Legendary Super Shlorpian gasp and shields Sonya as he gets hit in the head with it as she gasp in horror.
Sonya: Oh no! Daddy!
The other Ultra Opposites appear.
Dr. Brian: What the fu… did that pest called Korvo daddy?!
Terry/Solar Flare: Hell yeah she did!
Jesse/Electra: She’s our new sister you bitch!
Yumyulack/Psylock: Yeah! That’s right!
Dr. Brain laughs.
Dr. Brain: No way? This human runt is your new replicant?! laughs evilly It’s too late! Legendary Super Shlorpian has been hit with the ray!
Solar Flare gasps.
Nova/Lady Roseus: No!
Yumyulack/Psylock and Jesse/Electra: Korvo!
Dr. Brain disappears or while laughing evilly.
Sonya: Korvo… are you okay…
Legendary Super Shlorpian turns back to his normal Shlorpian self as he looks around the room.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Where am I? Who are you?
Sonya gasp as tears run down her eyes.
Terry/Solar Flare: gasp Oh no! My Korvy!
Jesse/Electra: Is Korvo…
Yumyulack/Psylock: …Gone?
Solar Flare starts sobbing as he hugs Legendary Super Shlorpian.
Cherie/Agent Red: No… he can’t be..
The rest of the Ultra Opposites looks down for a moment of silence. At sunset, Sonya was looking down sadly at a photo of her and her new family on the day of her adoption while Psylock and Electra comes up to her.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Sonya?
Jesse/Electra: You okay sis?
Sonya: I can’t believe I got Korvo to lose his memories… and it’s all my fault.
Yumyulack/Psylock: It wasn’t your fault. We should’ve been there for you on time.
Jesse/Electra: Besides, this couldn’t happen to any one of us.
Sonya: But it didn’t. It happen to Korvo…
Sonya then sighs sadly.
Yumyulack/Psylock: What’s wrong?
Sonya: When I was a little girl, I was always the smallest kid in every school I go to growing up. I felt like I was the runt of the litter. You know what that means?
Jesse/Electra: Like the smallest one?
Sonya: The smallest and the weakest.
As Sonya looks down, her flashback plays, it shows a montage of her as a little girl in kindergarten as she runs up to her classmates when it was snack time. Song for this flashback:
Sonya: voiceover It’s not easy being the smallest. You learn pretty early on that everything’s gonna be harder for you.
Young Sonya however missed her chance when all the snacks are gone, only a juice box as she sadly takes it. She then tries to make friends, but they ignore.
Sonya: voiceover When you’re the smallest, you’re always left out and sometimes you’re never feel like like yourself.
Sonya’s parents then pick her up. Then, it flash forwards to her on her first day at high school when she saw Jesse and Yumyulack.
Sonya: voiceover Then you guys came and I had no idea if you’d be perfect enough. But, you stood up for me and made feel like I belong when you saved me.
Sonya then looks at the kids making fun of Jesse and Yumyulack and starts to feel sorry for them. Then, it shows the sad flashback of her seeing parents getting aborted as she gasp sadly and watch as they drive off by the abortion officers as she starts crying.
Sonya: voiceover That’s when I started to lose hope, until you guys adopted me and took me in..l finally had a new family…
The flashback ends as Sonya looks down sadly while Psylock and Electra hugs her.
Sonya: Korvo shouldn’t have been in this mess if it weren’t for me. I’m not even a superhero. And if I was, I feel like I wouldn’t be with the Ultra Opposites.
Jesse/Electra: We had no idea. But that’s not true. We want you.
Yumyulack/Psylock: You’re our sister. You already are strong enough….
Sonya smiles but then looks down with determination as she grasp her hands in courage.
Sonya: When Korvo and Terry adopted me, I felt like I wasn’t the smallest and the weakest.
Sonya then looks up at the sky in determination as she knew what she must do now.
Sonya: And I do anything to get my dad’s memories back!
The night, Sonya looks at her siblings sleeping.
Sonya: whispering I’ll be back soon guys…
Sonya flies out the window. Later, Dr. Brian is activating some kind of other ray towards the night sky.
Dr. Brain: Soon enough, everyone’s memories will be erased and Earth will be MINE!
Sonya: Not so fast!
Dr. Brian then aims his new ray at the meteors at the sky.
Dr. Brain: You again?!
Sonya: What are you doing with those meteors?!
Dr. Brain: I’m using them to destroy the world!
Sonya: What?! You monster! You give me back my dad’s memories right now!
Dr. Brain: Make me!
Dr. Brian uses a force field that traps Sonya and throws her to a strength-proof cage as she growls. Back at the Solars’ house…
Jesse: TERRY! TERRY!
Terry is busy showing Korvo the photo album to help him remember and then sees the worried looks on Yumyulack and Jesse’s faces.
Terry: Hopefully this works.
Yumyulack: Terry! Sonya’s gone!
Terry: WHAT?!
Later, the rest of the Ultra Opposites meet up and Terry tries contacting Sonya on the screen for her phone.
Terry: Sonya? Can you hear me? no answer Sonya?! Speak to me!
Sonya: Terry?! I’m trapped! Dr. Brain’s got me!
Cherie: What?!
Sherbet: Oh my God! Hang on!
Montez: We’re coming Sonya?!
Korvo: Sonya? trying to remember I heard of her before…
Terry groans in frustration.
Terry: Hang in there Korvy! We’re gonna get your memories back once and for all!
Jesse: Yeah! Just stay here!
Korvo: Oh um… okay…
Back with Sonya and Dr. Brain…
Sonya: Why are you doing this? How did you know about Korvo?
Dr. Brain: Because he is my son!
Sonya: What?!
Dr. Brain: It’s true! I’ve always hated that pest and his sister! Because, their mother love them more, so I killed her when they were little and left those brats alone to die! But, they somehow survived!
Sonya struggles to comprehend the situation.
Sonya: Y-you’re not their father…. You’re a murder!
Dr. Brain slaps Sonya. Sonya gasp as tears fall down. Then, she heard a roar. It’s Mundane Solar Flare!
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: STAY AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER, YOU FUCKER!
Dr. Brain gasps and growls. The rest of the Ultra Opposites arrive and gets into a heroic team stance.
Jesse/Electra: Release our sister you motherfucker!
Sonya gasps with happiness.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Hang in there Sonya! turns into his super Shlorpian and roars as he rips his suit into pieces
Dark Matter blushes.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Let’s kick ass!
Ultra Opposites: YEAH!
Back with Korvo, he is looking around until he sees a photo of him and his family.
Korvo: Aw Terry…
Korvo suddenly gets his memories back!
Korvo: gasp Now I know who I a really am….
Korvo turns into his superhero form and into his Super Shlorpian form.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: I AM KORVO SOLAR-OPPOSITES, ALSO KNOWN AS…. THE LEGENDARY SUPER SHLORPIAN!
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian laughs and twirls around.

Miss Darcina grows muscular.
Miss Darcina: Eat this! punches Dr. Brian
Then Shine Light shoots Brain with her lantern powers while Shout Out screams Brain away. The two girlfriend then kiss. Later, Master uses brain waves to blast him away. But then, Dr. Brain punches him. Before, Brian could do something to him…
Cherie/Agent Red: STOP TRYING TO KILL MY MAN!
Dr. Brain: Ooh, I’m so scared.
Agent Red uses her powerful ninja kick while La Oscuridad uses her painful tears to burn Dr. Brian as he screams.
Dr. Brain: ENOUGH!
Dr. Brain made a powerful blast that knocked everyone over until…

Solar Opposites in: Ultra Opposites: “The Prophecy Pt. 1” (for @avaveevo)
One gloomy day, on an unknown island
Basilisk: Ultra Opposites! How I hate them. And all of that loathing has been focused into this invincible instrument of destruction.
Basilisk aims his laser eyes at a Solar Flare poster.
Basilisk: Soon enough, I’ll find a way to crush them! Look out Ultra Opposites, Basilisk is coming for you! laughs evilly
Meanwhile at the Solars’ house, Terry is looking outside the window and begins to sing “Top Of The World” from Lyle, Lyle Crocodile:
[Solar Flare]
In the shadow of the city
When the days have disappeared
Some might say it's sorta gritty
Full of faces to be feared
But there are wonders that are waiting
Underneath the midnight sky
We got the stars illuminating
It's a place for a you and I
A little space for a you and I
At the top of the world tonight
Where no one ever has to hide
At the top of the world tonight
You're sittin' safe and starry-eyed
There is treasure you can find In somethin' someone left behind
At the top of the world tonight It can stay this way, at least until the mornin' light
Through the dark, there's someone's singin'
Like an old familiar song
Like you fell into a melody that's bringin'
You right here where you can belong
And, there are wonders that are waiting Underneath the midnight sky and
By the stars we're navigating
To a place for a you and I
At the top of the world tonight
Where no one ever has to hide
At the top of the world tonight
You're sittin' safe and starry-eyed
There is treasure you can find In somethin' someone left behind
At the top of the world tonight It can stay this way, at least until the mornin' light
At the top of the world, the top of the world
The top of the world tonight
Later, The next day, class has started in Ms. Perez’s class, but then she notice one of her students is missing.
Ms. Perez: Huh? Where the heck is Sonya?
Ms. Perez begins to call for her parents but then, she heard a strange voicemail that made her terrified and distraught as she covers her mouth.
Ms. Perez: No…
Later, Solar Flare is looking down at the city in awe, while his husband and kids arrived
Terry/Solar Flare: Hey, babe!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Hey my darling! kiss him on the lips
Jesse/Electra: Terry, have you seen Sonya?
Terry/Solar Flare: What?! She wasn’t at class today!
Yumyulack/Psylock: No but we saw Ms. Perez on the phone and she was shocked and tearing up.
Jesse/Electra: Aw geez, I think she might be in trouble or something! Terry, we have to find her!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: I agree!
Solar Flare then turns into a his mundane form as he roars.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Damn, man.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: Let’s go find that poor girl!
The four heroes then search and search everywhere for Sonya. But no sign of the poor girl, until Mundane Solars Flare finally finds her sulking tearfully.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: FOUND HER!
Jesse/Electra: Found her!
Yumyulack/Psylock: Sonya!
Sonya: Huh?
Sonya looks up tearfully at their heroes, as they landed. Solar Flare then turns back to his normal Shlorpian but then notices that Sonya is crying as she hics a little.
Jesse/Electra: What’s wrong?
Sonya: M-my…
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Your what?
Sonya: M-my p-parents… breathing tearfully h-have b-been….
The Quartet leans in closely.
Sonya: ABORTED! breaks down in tears hysterically
The Ultra Opposites gasp.
Terry/Solar Flare: Yeesh. Do you really have to be that loud?
The rest of the Ultra Opposites look at Solar Flare annoyed.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry…
Terry/Solar Flare: What?
Jesse/Electra: Oh no we’re so sorry Sonya
Yumyulack/Psylock: Yeah. If there’s anything we can do to help…
Sonya: cries It means I’m an orphan now. Aborted means parents from different counties forced to be sent back without kids…
Ultra Opposites: WHAT?!
Jesse/Electra: That’s horrible.
Legendary Super Shlorpian collapse on his knees in tears and turns into his Super Shlorpian form.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: in tears Oh… oh god…
Terry/Solar Flare: Aw Korvy, it’s okay…
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: in tears I know… it’s just… wow…
Sonya: I hate missing my family. It makes me sad.
Terry/Solar Flare: Oh Sonya come here…
Solar Flare hugs and soothes Sonya as tears fall down lightly while one by one the family joins in on comforting Sonya.
Jesse/Electra: sadly Oh Sonya…
Yumyulack/Psylock: We’re so sorry…
Legendary Super Shlorpian has an idea.
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Solar Flare, may I have a word with you in private?
Solar Flare/Terry: Oh? Uh, sure!
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Psylock, Electra! Watch over Sonya, will ya?
Jesse/Electra: Yes, sir yes, sir!
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian grabs Solar Flare as they hid behind the wall.
Terry/Solar Flare: Dude, what is with you?
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian takes a deep breath and turns back into his normal Shlorpian self.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry, remember when we got married, we were thinking about having another child one day?
Terry/Solar Flare: Yeah? What about it?
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry… we should adopt Sonya
Solar Flare is shocked but then starts crying.
Terry/Solar Flare: Y-you mean it? It’s finally time?
Legendary Super Shlorpian nods.
Terry/Solar Flare: crying with happiness Oh Korvy!
The two superhero aliens kiss as they moan.
Terry/Solar Flare: Ooh! But we can’t tell the kids yet! We should surprise them!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry, you’re right.
Terry/Solar Flare: Let’s go check on the kids!
Meanwhile with the kids…
Jesse/Electra: There there Sonya. It will be okay…
Sonya sniffles.
Sonya: Thanks.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Yeah! I’m sure that… senses Basilik approaching
Jesse/Electra: What is it Yumbear?!
Yumyulack/Psylock: Someone’s approaching!
Then, the kids sees Basilik shooting laser from his eyes as he laughs evilly.
Jesse/Electra: Shit! We gotta tell Terry and Korvo!
Sonya: Huh! What, wait? What did you guys say?
Jesse/Electra: Uh, I mean Solar Flare and Legendary Super Shlorpian!
Sonya realizes something.
Sonya: Jesse? Yumyulack?
Psylock and Electra gasp in shock. Then, Solar Flare and Legendary Super Shlorpian arrived.
Terry/Solar Flare: What’s going on?
Psylock and Electra look nervously at each other.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Uh, guys?
Sonya: No way, you’re the Ultra Opposites? So that means, you didn’t move!
Jesse/Electra: Don’t freak out or anything, but-
Sonya: Then, you two must be Terry and Korvo! I knew it! I knew there was something familiar about you guys!
Terry/Solar Flare: You did? Then why didn’t you say anything?
Sonya: Oh. Because, remember? Secret identites are kept hidden?
Ultra Opposites: Oh yeah. That’s right. God damn it! Why do we always forget these things? Oh jeez….
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: So what now?
Sonya: Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone about this. If you like… also Basilik is back!
Terry/Solar Flare and Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: WHAT?!
Jesse/Electra: We gotta go stop him guys before anyone gets hurt? Wait, what about Sonya?!
Sonya: Don’t worry about me. I’ll be OK!
Suddenly, Legendary Super Shlorpian grabs Sonya and takes her to a homeless shelter Sherbet resides at, much to Sonya’s surpise.
Sonya: Huh?
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Don’t worry! Until we can tell you about your new home, stay here with a good friend of ours in a meantime!
Sonya: If you says so.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: We’ll see you later. Right now, we got some fish ass to kick!
Sonya nods. Later, the four superhero aliens landed where Basilik is and gets into a fighting stance.
Terry/Solar Flare: Not so fast Basilik!
Basilisk: You four?! You have got to be kidding me!
Jesse/Electra: That’s right! Prepare to eat Electricity!
Basilisk chuckles. Electra swings her wrecking ball at Basilik that shocks him and throws him to the wall. Basilisk growls.
Jesse/Electra: You just got Electra’d! Now Psylock!
Psylock attacks with brain waves.
Basilik: Grraaaaahhh! Little brat!
Psylock then turns into his super Shorpian form and breathes fire ice at Basilik, who jumps over it.
Basilik: GOD DAMN IT!
Basilisk snaps and turns to Legendary Super Shlorpian
Basilik: Why you son of a fu-
Legendary Super Shlorpian turns into his super Shlorpian form but memories of losing his mother starts flooding in upon hearing Sonya is an orphan now.
Terry/Solar Flare: Korvo?!
Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian panicky breathes ice at Basilik who growls as Super Shlorpian Legendary Super Shlorpian starts having a trauma attack.
Jesse/Electra: Oh shit.
Solar Flare then realizes why Legendary Super Shlorpian is having a panic attack. Then, he notices Basilik about to pummel him, and turns into his Mundane Form and throws Basilik to the wall.
Mundane Terry/Solar Flare: STAY AWAY FROM HIM!
Basilik: God damn it! That’s it! I’m challenging you to a big fight later tonight! Be there or else!
Basilik leaves causing Solar Flare to look at his husband with worry.
Terry/Solar Flare: turns back into his normal Shlorpian Honey, are you okay?
Super Shlorpian Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: No! It’s not okay! Everything will not be okay! Leave me alone! runs off in tears
Yumyulack/Psylock: FINE! GO! GO HAVE A CRY ABOUT IT!
Jesse/Electra: Where'd he go...?
Yumyulack/Psylock: Who cares? I hate it when he gets like this.
Terry/Solar Flare: Aw poor Korvy. looks at the kids Come on kids, cut him slack. He is just really overwhelmed because of Sonya losing her parents. Plus, it probably reminded him of the time he lost his mom.
Yumyulack/Psylock and Jesse/Electra: gasp
Yumyulack/Psylock: Oh shit. Is that why he was all like “Oh no! Everything will never be okay!” just now?
Jesse/Electra: He wasn’t really mad at you?
Terry/Solar Flare: Duh! Plus, you know how dramatic he can be, but we still love him. He’s just feeling overwhelmed. Give your father some to calm down before we find Basillik.
Terry/Solar Flare flies off to Legendary Super Shlorpian while Psylock and Electra looks down in shame.
Yumyulack/Psylock: Aw geez. We suck.
Jesse/Electra: Yeah.
Sometime later… Terry hears Korvo gooblering then Nova comes by.
Nova: Hey Terry! What’s wrong?
Human Terry: Not good. Korvo has been taken something pretty hard lately and he could use some comfort.
Nova: Hmmm… I’ll see what I can do.
Korvo starts gooblering as he pace back n forth and then Nova comes in.
Nova: Korvo?
Korvo: WHAT?!
Nova: Is everything okay?
Korvo: NO! NOTHING IS OKAY! NOTHING WILL EVER BE OKAY AGAIN!
Nova: Umm?
Korvo: Ugh. Sorry. I just learned that Sonya's parents were aborted...
Nova: What? Oh my God. That’s horrible.
Korvo: I know. I feel so bad, I can't stop turning into my Super Shlorpian form when I cry...
Nova: Really? I had no idea that. I’m just glad there wasn’t any orphan problem back in the wall. That would’ve been terrible…
Korvo gasp and grows nervous. Korvo starts crying as he transforms into his Super Shlorpian form. Terry comes in and gasps.
Terry: hugs and comforts Korvo Oh Korvy. He is still upset because of Sonya being an orphan. But guess what?! We’re adopting Sonya!
Nova: Oh my god! That's great news! Are you gonna tell her?
Terry: Oh we want it to be surprise for her and the kids later… I hope Sherbet gets a home too…
Nova’s smile then frowns into a concern one as she grow confused over what Terry just said about Sherbet.
Super Shlorpian Korvo: Nova?
Nova: What are you talking about?
Terry: Well, I'm just saying I hope that Sherbet gets a new home soon.
Nova: A new home? Wait, what are you talking about? What do you mean Sherbet has no home?
Terry: Oh… she didn’t tell you didn’t she?
Nova: Terry, Korvo, what the fuck is going on?
Super Shlorpian Korvo sighs and turns back into his regular Shlorpian form. So, Terry and Korvo decided to tell Nova about Sherbet’s Tragic Backstory.
Korvo: Nova… Sherbet’s parents died two years ago in a car crash before she got accidentally shrunk…
Terry: And she had to live with terrible people who treated her like shit...
Nova gasp silently as she grew terrified by the tragic reveal of the fate of Sherbet’s parents and her huge heartbreaking past. Then, she began to cry while Korvo sighs.
Nova: tearfully Wh-what?… Sherbet lost her parents before she was in the Wall? Is there anything else she also lost after her parents’ death?
Terry then sighs sadly and shows Nova an old newspaper article from two years ago, which shows the closing of Sherbet’s family’s sweet parlor with a picture of Sherbet and her parents before the car accident.
Nova: No…
Korvo: Poor Sherbet has lost everything since that crash. Her parents, her family’s sweet parlor, her friends, her eyesight and her house. She was forced to live in a homeless for a year before Yumyulack accidentally shrunk her.
Nova cries and runs into Korvo's arms. Korvo comforts her as he soothes her, like a brother comforting a sister.
Korvo: I'm so sorry, Nova...
Nova: tearfully Oh God… I had no idea what her life was like before the Wall. Oh, I should’ve known. She must’ve still been so heartbroken when she first came here.
Terry: It's not your fault.
Nova: YES IT IS!
Nova sighs as she put her hand on her head.
Nova: I had no idea. Poor thing. The first time I saw her at that Wall tiki hut, she looked very scared… I bet things even got worse for her when Sister Sisto took over.
Terry: Maybe it did. Maybe it didn't.
Korvo scowls at Terry.
Terry: Oh. Shit. Sorry, continue speaking Nova.
Nova dries her tears.
Nova: I wish there was something I could do for her…
Korvo: Then adopt her.
Nova then hears what Korvo said and thought about it.
Nova: Hmmm...
Nova look back because all she wanted was to start a family with Halk before he died, then looks down at a bottle cap Sherbet gave her the first time she came here.
Nova: I'll do it.
Terry and Korvo: What?
Nova: I'll adopt Sherbet.
Korvo: You do? I thought you gave up on having a child when your husband Halk died.
Nova: I know I did, but...after what Sherbet's been through. She deserves the perfect mom.
Korvo put his hand on Nova’s shoulder and smiles.
Korvo: I think that's the right thing do to.
Terry: I agree. But she doesn’t a perfect one. You are already wonderful and kind enough to her when she first came to the Wall. That’s what moms really are…
Nova smiles with tears in her eyes and hugs Korvo. Korvo is shock but hugs back.
Nova: Thank you guys.
Korvo: Anytime.
Terry then seduces Korvo by squeezing his ass.
Korvo: Ooh! giggles
Terry: Yeah. Ya like that, Korv?
Korvo: Oh-ho-ho! fiddling his fingers in Terry’s stomach Yes I do, you bad alien!
Nova: You two seem really affectionate in your marriage, huh?
Korvo: Oh hell yeah.
Terry then got onto Korvo and the two aliens starts making out. Later, Basilik is laughing evilly.
Basilisk: Time to show these Ultra Opposites what true vengeance is!
Luckily, Korvo hears the whole thing and grows determined. Later… Legendary Super Shlorpian, Solar Flare, Electra and Psylock arrives.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: It’s over Basilisk!
Terry/Solar Flare: Yeah! What are you upto now?!
Basilisk: I wanted to show you what I created from my hatred for you!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: What?!
Basilisk summon a laser spear and plunges it through Legendary Super Shlorpian’s chest.
Terry/Solar Flare: gasp K-Korvo?
Legendary Super Shlorpian coughs up blood and breathes heavily.
Terry/Solar Flare: Noooo! Korvo! Nooo!
Yumyulack/Psylock: Noooo!
Jesse/Electra: Korvo! No!
The laser spear disappears and Legendary Super Shlorpian falls to the ground.
Terry/Solar Flare: KORVO! picks him up and starts crying in his chest
Yumyulack/Psylock: You monster! You killed our dad!
Jesse/Electra: You’ll pay for this!
Legendary Super Shlorpian places a hand on Solar Flare’s cheek.
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Terry… don’t worry about me… you have… to stop… Basilik…
Terry/Solar Flare: No! I have to save you!
Korvo/Legendary Super Shlorpian: Don’t worry…about me. I’ll be…fine.
Legendary Super Shlorpian closes his eyes and begins to fade away.
Terry/Solar Flare: No please… oh this is all my fault… I should’ve stop him… please don’t go… I love you…
Legendary Super Shlorpian dies.
Terry/Solar Flare: Korvo? Korvo?! KORVO!!!!!
Yumyulack/Psylock: Dad….
Jesse/Electra: No….
