The cream on top of this bathtub of milk is pretty French actress Brigitte Bardot. In a movie being made in Rome, she plays Nero's beautiful wife, Poppea, who's supposed to have accomplished her ablutions in a marble pool filled with the milk of she-asses. Fact or fiction, the business makes a nice scene for the film Nero's Big Weekend, 1956.

you know what makes enid such a lovable character? she’s deceptively complex, and the specifics make her so fucking precious. LET ME PROVE MY THESIS.
when enid is first introduced in the show, we might be inclined to think that she’s merely a shallow representation of the polar opposite of wednesday—colorful, peppy, social, loud. but she’s so much more than just wednesday’s antithesis. and you see that from their very first interaction.
enid, clearly excited and optimistic about meeting her new roommate, rushes up to greet her with a huge smile and outstretched arms (already, a sign of her kindness). but the very second she realizes wednesday doesn’t want to reciprocate, she holds off. this might not seem like a big thing, but it’s extremely telling. for one, it shows us that before everything, enid respects wednesday’s boundaries. wednesday, who she doesn’t even know yet. and she continues to honor wednesday’s disinclination to hugs, repeatedly, until the final scene. it also indicates that she’s not ditsy or cluelessly abrasive like some other characters who share her disposition. enid is genuinely, thoroughly kind, and it’s striking.
however, as the scene continues and enid gives wednesday a tour of nevermore, it becomes clear that even though she is kind, she isn’t a one-dimensional people-pleaser. she doesn’t hesitate to give wednesday’s attitude right back to her. like when wednesday expresses annoyance over the name of the quad and enid tells her that “the whole snarky, goth-girl thing might’ve worked at normie school, but here, things are different,” and when wednesday shows disinterest in “participating in tribal adolescent cliches,” enid tells her to “use it to fill your obviously bottomless pit of disdain.” is enid sweet? yes. and is she (not so) subtly trying to impress her cute brunette roomie with her knowledge and interests? also yes. but what she’s not about to do is let wednesday sass her without matching her energy. it’s almost a playful kind of banter (i would say borderline flirtatious), and it’s one of the reasons wednesday is instantly drawn to her; enid isn’t afraid of her, or uncomfortable around her, or put off by her unfriendliness; instead, she’s able to interact with her in a way that keeps wednesday on her toes. this, combined with the way enid continuously respects her boundaries, is a dichotomy that wednesday finds irresistible, and it’s why she can’t not treat enid differently than everyone else. and it’s a big reason why she falls for her.
enid’s complexity only deepens when we discover that she can’t wolf out. we find out that she’s terrified of being alone, and as we get to family weekend, we see the dysfunctional dynamic she has with her parents. it becomes apparent that enid herself is a dichotomy; she presents herself to her peers as confident and bubbly and full of optimism, but the second she’s alone with her family, we see a glimpse of her truest self, who she is behind the mask—weary, sad, almost demure, responding to her mother’s criticism with a tired kind of acquiescence, “that’s me, a huge disappointment.” enid isn’t at all what we might have initially thought her to be, and to see her deal with not measuring up to her family’s standards makes her all the more authentic and relatable.
considering all of this, enid’s duplicity contextualizes her delicacy with wednesday in a way that is uniquely captivating. because enid has every reason to close herself off to other people, especially to her roommate who doesn’t even seem to like her, but she doesn’t. in fact, she goes above and beyond trying to befriend her—promising to keep her secret about nero, seeing her off with tyler at the harvesting festival, inviting her to multiple social events, expressing an interest in “bonding” when she took her dress shopping, organizing a birthday surprise for her, knitting her a snood in her signature colors, and even pulling one over on weems so that they could have a girl’s night out. so when she finds out that wednesday has deceived her, she’s rightfully upset and extremely hurt. during the fight scene, all of this comes out, and for the audience—much like for wednesday—enid’s anger is pain-inducing. we see the strength of her vulnerability in that moment, we see her reach the end of her rope, as it were, because deep down enid is just plain exhausted. and that’s what makes her really real. i see the humanity in her so clearly, and it makes me want to cry. it makes me want to reach through the screen and comfort her like wednesday couldn’t in that moment.
but as we know, enid comes back for wednesday. why? because even after everything, even after the betrayal and the snide remarks and the silence, she still wants to take care of wednesday. she still wants to be there for her, to protect her and be her friend. without waiting for an apology from the person who wronged her, she came back. and if that doesn’t make you love enid sinclair with all of your heart, nothing will.

Dating Dante headcannons
Tumblr media
-Lazy ass himbo, he is. Does nothing but sit around all day reading magazines and eating pizza, yet somehow stays fit and sexy.
-Constantly bothering you over something or other--often stupid things like how to preheat the oven to warm up his pizza, why isn't the TV remote working, or how come that light bulb in the kitchen is out even though he changed it "last week" (which was really last year).
-Calls you exaggeratedly sweet nicknames like: Pookie bear, Sugar, Kitten, Sugar Plum, Cutie Pie, Sexy, and Cupcake.
-Always wants to take you places like the park, the beach, the forest, Vergil's place, etc.
-When he gets drunk (which is quite often) he acts like a needy cat. He craves cuddles and headpats, and if you don't fork em over, he'll whine endlessly and stare up at you with cute puppy dog eyes until you relent.
-Never tell anyone about this drunken behavior of his--especially Vergil--or your poor baby boy will never hear the end of it.
-Comes home from missions very late at night and puts zero effort into being quiet so you can sleep. Be prepared to hear loud footsteps and clattering dishes at 4:00 A.M.
-Genuinely wants to spend as much time as possible with you, but his work often calls him away. Eventually he gets fed up with it and snaps at whoever interrupts your couple time.
-The world's best cuddlebug; always squishing you up against him with those big arms, keeping you warm and safe until the end of time and beyond.
-Kisses any part of your body any chance he can get, from short little forehead kisses when he comes home to full on make-out sessions right before bedtime. ;)
-Takes you dancing every weekend, and brings Dr. Faust. Shenanigans incoming
-Pillow fights are common when you're with Dante, especially in the morning when he tries to wake you up. He'll toss a large pillow at your head, which you will catch, then throw back at him, and the exchange continues until either the pillows rip or someone (think Vergil) tells you guys to shut the hell up.
-You and him work together to come up with ridiculous pranks to mess with everyone, such as putting salt in Nero's coffee or leaving a glitterbomb in the van to "surprise" Nico.

enid gets adopted by lurch when she was a kid
you'll occasionally see this stoic mountain of a man with his hair decorated in different bows and braids
sometimes they have tea parties in the library with enid's stuffed animals (some being taxidermy ones gifted to her by lurch, those are her favorite)
when enid's being particularly energetic you can almost see some concern shining in the man's eyes. because she's definitely a little daredevil and does some stupid shit and he can't help but worry because while the addams children can walk off a lot, his little girl most likely can't
But through in through, she's his tiny, colorful shadow and tries to emulate a lot of what he does. Whether it be (underage) driving, cooking, cleaning, she copies all of it. Heck, she even wears a mini copy of his suit after begging morticia for one.
anyway, maybe she was good friends with wednesday when they were younger, but wednesday froze her out after irrationally blaming her for nero's unfortunate demise. idk, enid probably got distracted chasing a butterfly and wandered off right before the bullies came.
obviously, enid is super heartbroken and retreats into herself around wednesday. she tries to be, well, less of herself around the goth and is quick to come to her defense. sometimes recklessly and needlessly.
wednesday knows she being irrational but didn't enid always promise to protect her? where was she when the addams needed her the most?
when they both get expelled (enid for having some of her previously unknown wolf attributes coming through and maiming a kid with her claws and wednesday with her nut-eating piranhas) and sent to nevermore it's basically the same as the first episode. though wednesday is more bitter about having to share the same space as the wolf as she thought she'd finally be free of her.
enid knows this and joins all these extracurriculars to stay out of the room as much as possible. this is where she meets yoko and they start hanging out more, with yoko becoming her best friend in a short amount of time.
and it's not like wednesday cares. she just always preferred werewolves to vampires. and oh, enid has a crush on a gorgon? that's fine. hope she has fun talking to a boy with more snakes than brain and a personality as dull as stone. it's like a constant battle, trying to wrestle her jealousy and possessiveness.
on parent's weekend, enid is so excited for yoko to meet her dad. imagine the vampire's surprise when this incredibly tall guy walks up to them undetected and starts to pat enid's head. yoko is seconds away from attacking before enid squeals and jumps the willowy man with a hug.
it's even more surprising when she realizes he only responds with grunts and groans, but enid can understand and translate perfectly fine.
yoko: so uh, how's it going big guy?
lurch: *groans*
yoko: ...right, that's uh, good?
enid definitely has fun mistranslating and confusing the vampire.
i think it'd also be cute if lurch reassured enid that not all monsters are bad. cuz in this, no one realized enid was a werewolf, so when she starts slowly gaining more wolf characteristics, she starts having an identity crisis
and look, lurch definitely has some personal experience with being hated for simply existing (as all outcasts do, but we're not talking about them) so he's all for telling enid that the wolf thing are just as much a part of her as anything else

Some extra “facts” and interesting weird info about a certain self proclaimed tiger lady house cat in my TBOSAS on Crack!AU.
One of my great THG buddies was asking about Tigris Snow and her weird cheese addiction. So I just had to write some things down before I write my next short take.
Tigris Snow is extremely addicted to cheese. She’s a certified cheese addict and “cheese thief” since the day she and her little cousin (Coryo) lost their marbles after the war ended.🧀
No one knows why, but little Tigris Snow claimed that the “cheese fairies” came to her in a dream one day and saved her and her little cousin from death and starvation.
Don’t worry. Crazy Coryo Snow doesn’t mind that his poor cousin is addicted to cheese and believes in some “mythical” cheese fairies. He has his own addictions (cabbages) and problems (Highbottom & Dr. Gaul) to worry about.
In truth, Coryo’s “mythical” cabbage deities and lima bean elves commanded him to ignore the “calling of the cheese” in order to stay pretty for his sugar daddy (Sejanus).
At least both of them inherited their family’s rare ability to bargain with wild animals. They can even converse with “sacred” rabid raccoons, poisonous snakes, and wild squirrels without getting attacked.
Meanwhile, the Creeds can talk to sewer rats and fat chinchillas for some reason.
And the Ravinstills have a rare ability to command an army of Bichon Frisé puppies to do their dirty jobs for them.
Sadly, Tigris was recently fired by Fabricia Whatnot for secretly stealing and eating expensive cheese cubes and cheddar chicken sandwiches all day.
She said that her cheese fairies made her do it. A food sacrifice must be made before the “hour of the owl” in order to satisfy the ancient cheese deities of the “Golden Arches” (McDonald’s) who once ruled Panem (America) even before it existed.
Moreover, our sweet tiger was actually sewing and hiding little cheese cubes inside some of the dresses on accident purpose without Fabricia noticing. Her co-workers didn’t even know about the cheese cubes until some unfortunate lady complained about the smell.😔
That’s why our dear Tigris Snow is currently unemployed and living her best happy-go-lucky “house cat” life in Corso.
But crazy unemployed Nero Price is her worst nightmare. He’s a self proclaimed werewolf who howls at the moon all night.
She’s a poor skinny cat and Price is a crazy werewolf who runs around the city (like a wild dog) looking for rabid raccoons and Peacekeepers to fight. So it’s better for the tiger to stay home with the Grandma’am.
At least her little cousin (Coryo) buys her the best cheese tarts and sugar sticks after school (using his rich sugar daddy’s money of course).
So yeah. Tigris Snow is now the NEET (not in education, employment or training) Cat Queen in this weird universe.
However, the Grandma’am doesn’t mind. She already has big plans with old Strabo Plinth to rule Panem from the shadows after Coryo marries into the Plinth family and their fortune.
And yes, our poor malnourish looking Cabbage Boy (Coryo) is actually the real breadwinner of the family.
Coryo marrying his long time sugar daddy boyfriend (Sejanus) was the best decision he and his family ever made.🥰
At least love-struck Sejanus Plinth was willing to pay for his poor sugar baby’s bills, rent, and groceries.
So after Coryo and Seji Pie got married and had their 24 (and more) babies, crazy cat auntie Tigris decided to finally settle down and became an official cheese merchant in Corso.
She (now) even has the time to talk to her mythical cheese fairy friends without being interrupted by evil Fabricia Whatnot.
She, along with Ma Plinth also like to spend old Strabo Plinth’s filthy money on the sweetest cheesecakes and weird looking clothing hangers every weekend.
Unfortunately, Ma Plinth is the only sane person who believes in Tigris Snow’s little cheese fairy friends.
Ma even joined Tigris Snow’s little secret organization called ✨The Cult of The Golden Arches✨. But to be fair, crazy Palmyra Monty and Festus Creed are the only other official members of her cult.
Too bad. Nobody could see those little cheese fairies except for Tigris and Coryo.
However, poor crazy Coryo likes to ignore his cousin’s mythical “beasts” because he claims that his cabbage deities and lima bean elves don’t want him to bow and worship some weird annoying creatures who divided the old world with their “Golden Arches” (McDonald’s).
Reject the cheese! Bow before the cabbage!
Yeah, I know. The poor Snow cousins are unashamedly crazy and delusional with their cheese fairies, ancient food deities, sacred animals, talking cabbages, and lima bean elves.😂
But don’t be sad. Our crazy cheese tiger is still into fashion and making clothes for her little cousin and his 24 (and more) gorgeous children with Sejanus.
But selling and eating cheese is her true passion and calling (in this life anyway).🧀

Tumblr media
summary: preschool teacher!harry x special education teacher!yn; y/n and harry met while working together at a preschool, y/n is engaged but her fiancé has been distancing himself from y/n, making her spend more time with harry, wishing she was marrying him instead
warnings: violence sort of?, emotional pain, angst
word count: 3k
clover's notes: i listened to a lot of life support by sam smith while writing if u wanna listen while u read :-)
part 1 part 2 part 3
harry and y/n ended up agreeing to take things slow, they started hot and heavy and.. breaking up an engagement which was the only thing on y/n’s mind, feeling guilty that maybe she fell in love with harry in the middle of her relationship and was separated for two weeks and already spending 24/7 kissing and being with him. the good part of this was knowing harry would always listen to her and her worries, something her last relationship lacked and she never wanted to see out of wanting it to work out.
a long talk with her therapist seemed to clear things up a bit, various of y/n’s issues were deeply rooted in her mum’s illness and consequently her loss, y/n has a thing for never putting herself first, losing part of her life to take care of her mother, not that y/n considers lost but she never took time to heal from that time, she was studying and travelling back home every weekend, spending every second finding ways to commute, learning about medications even though she failed biology, terribly. bathing her mum, doing groceries, cleaning and reaching a moment of exhaustion because her life was slipping through her fingers, meeting tony was good for her, she loved him, he was there for her… then her mum passes, and y/n’s break didn’t happen still, taking joey in, finding a job, planning a wedding, finishing school, working as a barista.. harry ended up being her break, his unfunny jokes, cloud sweaters and cleaning snot off children’s noses every single time, sat with her at lunch and read the same books she did, liked her lunches and drove her home if it was raining. things with tony weren’t exactly good from early on in their relationship and y/n would never even imagine he was cheating on her, he was known around the university for being a womaniser and dating every freshman and y/n thought she could fix him, as cringy as that sounds, really did think they would end up married and in a big house and kids but the universe had other plans and deep down y/n feels more than okay that she never had a baby with tony.
“i fear that i might’ve accidentally turned harry into a rebound or worse.. a way to heal my trauma and i don’t want that because i think i really love him, it’s like i run out of breath when i see him, he’s the best part of my day, he likes my lemon cookies and always sticks a star on my forehead after eating them, like we give the stars to kids when they did good, i really don’t want to fuck it up, i just don’t want to fuck up. not this, not him. and i turn 24 tomorrow and i hate thinking about another birthday without my mother.”
the little 4 people friend group was the first time y/n didn’t feel alone nor lonely, even though she always had joey, sometimes she did feel terribly alone in the entire world, like somehow she just wasn’t enough to have friends like she would see others have… but that changed when niall was introduced in her life, a music student that spilled his coffee on his laptop and immediately panicked in café nero, y/n and niall have been friends since she cleaned an entire table with baby wipes and told niall it was all gonna be okay,  niall was the first friend she made, not even knowing he was the guy that stopped her moment with harry for the first time, they just clicked. then joey moved to london and y/n met harry, connecting the dots that niall was the loud flatmate that spent too much time watching reality tv and that’s how her most special friend group came to be, the 3 most important people in her life. tony didn’t really take part in their friendship, except for the one time tony got invited to play golf by his boss and y/n said she would go only if she could take her friends so she wouldn’t be alone, other than that, everything was the 4 of them, game nights of niall buying every possible house in monopoly and harry effortlessly winning at scrabble. joey was more of a cards against humanity girl, making really great jokes that left y/n screaming “JOEY U DON’T SAY THAT” 10 times in a night, as for y/n she’s the best at charades, she guesses 00’s films like no one else, which brings her a fuzzy feeling to her heart.  
so it’s more than important that falling in love with harry wasn’t a mistake, that what he said about destiny was real and she wouldn’t lose him, she didn’t want to admit that losing tony because of her miscarriage was a pain that she could barely even think about, afraid that what if it happens again.
“do you think i’m mad?” 
“i don’t think you’re mad, y/n, you went through major loses that aren’t easy to overcome, there are more people going through the same feelings as you and it’s okay to feel scared, lonely and like you’re going mad, but you’re not, you took the first step, asking for help and that is incredibly brave. i guarantee you, i’m here to help and make things easier, i won’t judge or say “well maybe u shouldn’t have done that” i’ll try and guide you within your own terms and your own pace. consider me as a tool, an extra help to face what makes you feel pain.”
“i didn’t think therapy would be so safe, thank you dr. levi”
y/n got to her apartment around 40 minutes after her session ended, feeling genuinely good with sharing what was weighing on her heart, joey and pickles were napping in the sofa, the tv was on mute but the great british bake off was on, y/n grabbed the letters on the hallway table, frowning tony’s name written all over them. 
harry
— hey, niall and i are going out later, want to come?
y/n smiles at harry’s name popping on her phone and asking to hang out, she places her phone on the same table and walks over to the sofa to gently wake joey up, y/n nudges her shoulder a little bit, “joey wake up” she whispers, her hand reaching pickles that was now loudly purring to the sight of y/n, “joeeeeey! c’mon” y/n insists, “y/n if the world isn’t ending please let me sleep” joey snaps back, without opening her eyes, “okay, then i’ll go out with harry and niall by myself”, joey opens her eyes and goes quiet for a second, “okay, maybe i’ll get up” the younger sister groans and holds pickles, smooching her. “how was therapy?” she asks, sitting in a more comfortable position, “well, weird at first but it felt nice to talk to someone that knows how to help” y/n explains, “you? how was your day?”, joey groans again, “it was normal, i came home and took a nap and now you’re here and you’re making us dinner… right?”, “right but you’re helping so get your ass off the sofa, please” y/n demands and joey gets up, dragging her feet across the living room into the kitchen, “so do i tell harry yes?”, “well obviously”. 
y/n
— yes! joey and i are in. meet us downstairs? 
harry
— yes, 11pm works for you? 
y/n
— perfect xx
the pub was their usual hanging out spot, (that wasn’t y/n’s place), so y/n and joey knew already that harry and niall were at the booth in the back and likely arguing over manchester united and whatever team was playing against them, harry noticed y/n walking in, wearing long bell bottom white jeans a white top with sleeves that almost looked like angel wings, white as well, he thought her boobs looked absolutely perfect in it, he could already smell the chamomile body butter y/n always carries with her, he instantly gets up, looking at the soon-to-be birthday girl with so much love on his eyes, his chest almost hurt. harry has spent the entire day on edge, teaching was hard, focusing on children’s needs was even harder, looking at y/n most of the time and wondering how she did it, look angelic as she bottled up the weight of her and her sister’s life on her heart, reading stories about mothers without shedding a single tear, he thought he could never be in her shoes, he actually couldn’t even picture a world without his mum right there for him. 
then he sees her, walking in, glowing, still so beautiful. 
his mind is going at an absurd speed, he wants to wish her a happy birthday, kiss her, hand her the bag with her birthday present, order a really strong drink so he won’t kiss her like he’s her boyfriend and beg niall to please shut up about the football game on the tiny television, all at the same time. he always thought of himself as a peaceful person, no dramas, keeping his life lowkey and leave the drama for his goddaughter’s plays..
and then he sees her, an angel-like hurricane with a sweet smile and sad eyes, still so beautiful.
a cloudburst is an extreme amount of precipitation in a short period of time, sometimes accompanied by hail and thunder, which is capable of creating flood conditions.
and that’s exactly what she is, his cloudburst.
it’s past midnight, niall made the entire pub sing happy birthday to y/n and is now trying to get free shots for the 4 of them to honour y/n 24th birthday. y/n is now opening joey’s birthday gift, a rug that reads “i hope you like taylor swift and cats”, making y/n chuckle and realise this is actually a gift for the both of them, their house. “i love it joey! thank you” y/n exclaims, hugging her sister in the small booth soda they’re both sat on, niall rushes in with the shots and places them in front of us, “drink drink drink” he shouts and we all drink up, he continues to speak right after, “open mine now!” he hands y/n a poorly wrapped gift with too much tape but clearly a vinyl from the shop he works at, y/n lets out a squeal as she tears the wrapping paper, unveiling a vintage billy joel vinyl with the songs “only the good die young” and “vienna”, her eyes fill to the brim with tears, “oh my god! niall this is.. wow” she cries out, “harry helped me out a little” niall confesses giving y/n a timid smile, “thank you both, for real”, she cleans the tears from her face and gently places the vinyl back in the bag. “um” harry coughs a little, “remember when little jenny brought that squishmallow horse that had my name and you said you’d also love to carry me around?” harry asked as his hands gripped onto the paper bag, jenny was a 4 year old they had in their class last year and moved to ireland during the summer, giving very teared goodbyes to y/n and harry and swearing she would never forget them. she had a squishmallow she would constantly bring to class, a little horse named harry, y/n jokingly said she would love to carry harry around all the time as well and harry never forgot that. 
“you got me harry the horse?”
“i also got you something else but yes”
“you got me harry the horse!”
harry handed the brown paper bag with a green lace bow and y/n unwrapped it as fast as she could, hugging the horse squishmallow the minute she got it out of the bag, “oh i love him!”, harry smiled to himself, proudly of the well chosen gift, “there’s more” he points to the bag, a normal people copy, y/n furrowed her eyebrows, they had read the book and watched the series so she was confused as why was harry gifting her a book they had read together. “harry? what?” her voice trembled a little, not wanting to sound confused, “open it y/n” he says, still smiling to himself”
“to y/n, 
may all your friends work so hard on getting books signed like this friend did,
sally rooney” 
“what the fuck harry? what the fuck!”
it didn’t take long for the four of them to agree to go back yo y/n’s place as they usually did, mostly because y/n mentioned she had weed at home and all of them wanting to relax for a minute or two, (the whole night actually), niall and joey were still finishing their drinks as y/n and harry were paying the group bill, to their defence what happened next was totally taken out of context to what they were actually doing. harry’s arm was wrapped around y/n’s waist, his hand grabbing her hip firmly, small talk with the barista whose birthday was also today, talking a little bit about each other without giving too much info, y/n’s head ended up resting against harry’s arm as she couldn’t reach his shoulders even with the high heels she has on. “i see you replaced me, easily” a voice coming from behind the couple echoes through y/n, feeling the microwavable mac and cheese coming to her mouth and shivers down her spine. it was tony. harry’s grip on y/n’s hip was now tighter, being the only source of minimal comfort right now, the couple turned around without letting go of each other, “you were the one that cheated on me, remember?” y/n retaliates, feeling her muscles tensing up, “i have no guarantee that you weren’t fucking him behind my back, after all you’re a whore for a man that gives you any attention”. 
the next was a blur for y/n, harry lets go of her and his fist travels right to tony’s nose, harry doesn’t know what has gotten into him but there’s a stranger holding tony before he could make a punch back to harry and niall in front of harry.. all in seconds, making y/n stand there a bit in shock, just staring at them. joey is cursing out tony but y/n can’t hear a thing, it’s muffled, the only sound is her heart pounding onto her chest like it’s about to get out through her mouth along with the mac and cheese and the shots of tequila and dirty martinis with extra olives. 
“harry what happened?”
·
“he called her a whore and i lost it” 
·
“let’s go home”
·
“y/n?”
·
“i hate that bitch”
the walk back home was eternal for y/n, her house that was 5 minutes by foot from the pub, seemed 5 hours away, the fears of leaving her partner and thinking she was somehow using harry rang in her brain like hell, all of them spoke up, saying they hated tony and she was better off without him, harry tried to touch her but she brushed him off, walking ahead of them but able to hear them, none of it made sense, why her truest relationship had to be with a man she couldn’t have and now that she does her past comes to haunt her and call her a whore.
y/n feels the same about harry, that he had a peaceful life with routines and good relationships until he met her, a hurricane that came and destroyed his life with a kiss, y/n feels unworthy of him, she talks shit about people and holds grudges even if people are now buried, y/n wishes she was much more, that she was the one that sat through war with him, built a family with him, be much more than she actually feels that she is. y/n feels like her white canvas has been painted black, more swipes covering that could’ve been a masterpiece, harry holds the brushes with pastels and brights, making her canvas a less sad piece to look at.. but what if that is never enough? what if all this love in her heart will pass? what if she isn’t his life support? what if she’s no one’s life support?
she doesn’t realise she’s sitting on the doorstep of her apartment, crying her heart out in harry’s arms until she opens her eyes again, she doesn’t really know what her brain is doing to her and at this point, it’s the only veil harry wants to uncover.
it’s now four in the morning, y/n and harry haven’t slept, niall and joey passed out on the sofa after sharing a blunt and pickles is asleep at the end of y/n’s bed. maybe it was the alcohol making y/n sharing all of her thoughts to harry, that was taking in 24 years worth of pain and agony in one night and to him she was still beautiful, the cracks and flaws in her only made her more beautiful, more perfect just for him. 
“i love that you’re a hurricane, y/n. i thought i was going to live a boring life and you’ve shown me my future story is full. i don’t want you to think you’re not honourable enough for me because you are, i love every single thing you tell me, i love that you want me to be your family and to expand it.. because if i’m being honest joey feels already like my little sister, you’re already my family, my life.. and i want it all, even if you need more time. i want it all”
“all of it?”
“every single drop of you”
“you’re insane harry”
“and you’re my cloudburst.”

hello! hope you’re doing well so far 💕 ok, so i have this headcanon that la squadra didn’t exactly have the best lives prior to joining passione, and i was just wondering if i could have some headcanons of any of the members finding out that the fem! reader actually had a pretty normal and healthy past (ex: parents weren’t abusive/didn’t die when reader was a child, had good friends who she still keeps in touch with to this day [they don’t realize she’s an assassin tho, they just assume she has this high-paying job], and overall, never faced any traumatic events), but for some bizarre reason, ended up joining passione and being assigned to la squadra? reader also never brings up her past, but only because no one asks her about it. which member(s) would be like “wait, why tf are you in the mafia?!”, which member(s) wouldn’t say anything but are still curious, and which member(s) wouldn’t really care? ty!! <33
Hi! I'm doing well, thx for asking! This was a fun ask to do! (Also, most of my hcs are kinda scenarios and in this case the hcs are connected)
La Squadra reacting to a fem! teammate that doesn't have a traumatic past (or any reason to be in Passione)
Tumblr media
Risotto Nero
Since he's the leader your first talk when you entered in La Squadra was with him, not really for any personal question, he didn't ask you why you where there, that isn't his business.
He wasn't interested in know why you were there, but he found out while on a meeting where Formaggio asked you about it.
You casually said that you really didn't had a bad childhood or any reason to be there, you just wanted.
He's a little confused, you're here for fun or something? Mafia's no game.
Even tho, he'll don't think much about it and won't mention it or make any comments, it's your life, do what you want.
Prosciutto
As same as Risotto's, he isn't interested in knowing why you are there, he just minds that you do your job right, your personal life is not his problem.
He was sitting next to Pesci on the team meeting when you were askes about why you where there.
You told Formaggio and everyone that you didn't have any reason to be on Passione.
Prosciutto was also confused and kinda annoyed, you were taking this as a happy fun experience? Are you that dumb?
Won't really confront you about it, is your business, if you want to be there, go ahead, just mind the dangers you'll face.
Pesci
He was curious about your past, but he didn't want to make you uncomfortable or something.
He still tried to have personal conversations with you, like, he told you why he was there and also was very kind as he told you which members where the most easy to get along with.
When he got to knew that you didn't have a reason to be in Passione and you had a “normal” childhood (no drugs, no alcohol, no murders) he was a little worried, are you sure you want to be here?
He won't make you change your mind, but will mention that it's a “little” dangerous to be on a mafia, please be careful with this, don't take it lightly or something!
Formaggio
He's really curious to know everything about you, you're his new teammate, he needs to know if he can get along with you.
When he gets the chance, he straight ask you, and it was while on a meeting.
“I don't understand, then why the hell r u where?” he asks, you really don't have any reason? Are you okay?
He's shocked sure, it's not like ypu can consider the mafia a little activity to do on the weekends, it's something big. Are you sure you have think of it?
You gotta be kidding him, you are hiding something, maybe you don't want to tell him. He'll insist on you to tell him the truth, but you aren't lying!
He'll give up on a while, don't worry.
Ghiaccio
It gets a while to him to talk to you, he doesn't want you to think he's your “friend 'til the end”, no, he isn't interested on being friends with you, he just sees you as his teammate.
The only situations where he talks with you are when you are paired on a mission or on a meeting, afar from that, you ain't gonna get a conversation with him.
He was minding his business while on the meeting when he hearded that you where there just because.
He's annoyed out, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU THERE?! ARE YOU TRYING TO GET YOURSELF KILLED?! (lol)
Ghiaccio's not gonna talk about it with you, but you can see that he's annoyed that you take your life so lightly.
Maybe if you get him angry on a mission, he'll slightly mention it.
Melone
He's the one to make you a lot of very personal questions, your blood type, your zodiac sign, your past, do you have a boyfriend?
So he already knew that you where there by yourself, he doesn't mind, you are already an adult, you aren't a baby, he's sure you know what you're into.
Will give you little warnings here and there, but nothing else, your life, your decissions, he ain't gonna and doesn't have the right to change anything.
Illuso
He isn't interested in you, you should be interested in him.
Illuso is too busy with himself to be asking you about yourself, he doesn't want to be friends with you and the only interaction you'll have with him is when he tries to humillate you or tease you.
But secretly, he got your archieve, where all your information is, he knows even your blood type, even if it's irrelevant information.
So he isn't surprised when everyone gets to know about your past, he already knew, and he doesn't care, do what you want.
Won't bring it on a conversation, it's not something important to him.
Hope this was what you asked for!

Recalled • Part 6 • 41 - Roland
Previous • Series Masterlist • Part 6 Masterlist • Next
TW: Xenophobia
The weekend after the first test, Roland and his family decided to go up to see his grandmother in California. Down in Indianapolis, he’d say it’s cold right now, but Nero seems to think it only feels like fall weather. So who is he to judge really? It could be worse.
His grandmother lives in a beach house on Hermosa Beach, it’s a beautiful estate, Roland and his sister pass the picket fence as they get closer to the door. The picket fence has a distressed look, and there’s a multitude of shells that Roland gave his grandmother when he was little glued onto the fence. At least that’s a good visual memory about this place, he can’t say that there are other good ones. Heading inside her house, the place is a little tacky, at least to him, he supposes that the taste of a 65-year-old woman is far different from the taste of a young adult. At least she’s keeping on theme with all the beach decor. His mother and Lilian go over to hug their grandmother while Roland goes to sit at the kitchen island gently dropping his things underneath him. 
“Oh, who’s this grim man? No hug for your grandmother?” Roland smiles, looking over at his grandmother as she comes over with her hands on her hips. Roland gets up to hug her. He must’ve gotten his height from his father, because his mother is quite shorter than him, and his grandmother is even shorter, though that could be her old age. Roland practically envelopes her as he hugs her. “Oh my!” She comments, she gently grabs his arms from around her, looking at the ink tattooed into his hands. 
“Your grandfather would’ve loved this one.” She says to him, pointing at the shark. His grandfather had succumbed to a hidden illness when his mother was still a child. His grandmother would tell him stories about him when Roland was little, she still wishes he was here to see his grandchildren.
“I see his grafts are still healing, hasn’t it been around four months since he was recalled?
“We could only afford the basic treatment, besides I was more worried about his brain.”
The grandmother turns back around to him, “What happened to your brain dear?”
“My personality changed, someone bought my frontal lobe,” He pauses. “I don’t think you’d notice, I haven’t seen ya since I was thirteen?” He tries to recall, but his grandmother nods. “A very long time.”
Roland curses his existence, he wishes he could have had more time with others before his unwinding. The last two years he’s been god knows where sitting in a body locker for people to ogle at him. At that time his mother and stepfather got a divorce, not that he was complaining, that guy was a piece of work.
Lilian stares out the glass patio door at the beach, she wraps her arms around her, her hands reaching the top of her opposite shoulders.
“I’d like to go out, on the beach.” She states.
“Roland, could you take her out?” His mother asks. 
Roland nods, he goes over to slide open the patio door, holding out his hand for Lilian to take. 
“I meant to go swimming, you brought shorts for that didn’t you?” Lilian asks. Roland hesitates, he nods again, grabbing his swimming trunks out of his bag and heading upstairs to change.
As Roland and his sister splash each other back and forth he tries his best to think about the ominous structure to the left of him. Next to him is Hermosa Beach’s big long pier that spans 1,140 out into the ocean. They say that if you go to the end of it you can see sharks a little farther out. And they’re right, Roland would know, he had a very close encounter with a shark once. It seems like it’s not only Roland who’s trying to ignore the pier, soon enough Lilian’s non-offset eye turns to the pier.
“Do you remember when…” She starts.
“I’m sorry.” He spits out. In truth, a long time ago his stepfather had thrown him off that pier, promising he’d jump in after him, but he did not. To prove to himself that he was better than his stepfather Roland threw his own sister off the pier, unlike his stepfather he jumped in after her. 
“I wasn’t talking about that, I was talking about when I used to watch you up there while you’d be using your boogie board.”
“Oh, yeah… that was nice…” It’s not like soon after that a shark decided to make 13-year-old Roland its next meal.
Lilian starts walking back to the beach line with Roland following her. “I want to jump off the pier with you.” She says. Roland freezes in place. “But why?” He asks.
“Because it would be fun,” She then looks him in the eyes. “And maybe it would prove to you that you’re better than Mr. Taggart and your younger self.”
She keeps walking forward to the sand. 
To prove that he is better than his younger self? Is that what Roland’s self-worth has come to? At least it’s better than thinking his self-worth is the gummy worms Mr. Taggart gave Lilian to try to calm her as she cried, wondering if and when her brother would be unwound.
Lilian holds Roland’s hand as she climbs the steps of the pier, Lilian turns her head to look at him. “You’re shaking, stop that!”
Roland seems to become more aware of himself, though that only sends him more into his internal thoughts.
They get to the end of the pier, it’s windier out here. Roland remembers kids used to jump off this pier all the time, but no one is out here, maybe it stopped after his generation, like how unwinding stopped after he was unwound.
“I can’t do this.” He tells his little sister. 
“Sure you can, people younger than you do it.” She mimics him.
“I know, I just,” He looks over the edge at the big drop. “I can’t do this to you, or me.”
“What have you got to lose by doing this?” Lilian asks him. It makes him think for a moment, what does he have to lose? He’s got friends, he’s got a boyfriend, he’s got a family, he’ll soon have a job, and he can’t lose any of that to jumping off a pier.
“Nothing.” He finally tells her.
“Then jump with me.” She grabs hold of his hand and starts to run, he’s got no option but to run with her. He sees the drop again but he’s now being fueled by adrenaline, the drop doesn’t seem so bad anymore. 
As they jump over the railing Roland hears something snap behind him, he flips himself around to look at the broken wooden railing. Roland had broken the railing as he jumped off of it and it makes him laugh, and laugh, and laugh. Either the laughter is contagious or Lilian is laughing for another reason, it’s mixed in with screams of joy, so probably the ladder. Connecting with the water Lilian lunges over to Roland, holding onto him for dear life.
“Still scared huh?” Roland laughs, and Lilian just rolls her eyes at him. 
As they swim back to shore Roland looks up to the pier again, and he smiles. There’s finally a good memory to associate with that pier.
Arriving back in the house Roland gets all showered off before joining Lilian in the rec room, she’s holding an old camera. 
“whatcha got there?” He asks. 
“A camera, I just can’t get it to turn on.”
Roland holds out his hand to receive the camera. Inspecting it he flips open the battery container.
“Ah, yeah there’s no battery in there.” Roland hands back the camera and starts rummaging through the drawers, seeing if he can find anything. At the back of one of the drawers, there’s a camera battery sitting in its charger. Roland grabs it. “Alright, hopefully, this thing still has juice on it.” 
Lilian hands back over the camera, Roland inserts the battery and the camera comes to life. Roland sits down with Lilian as he presses the pictures button. There are a lot of pictures of a young boy and a girl with a blue patch over her eye. “Oh, wait, that’s you and I!” Roland exclaims.
“The house looks messier,” Lilian comments.
“Yeah, it does.” Roland cycles through more photos, he gets to one with his younger self playing frisbee with an ochre man. “Oh, that’s who Otto and Martha were talking about,” Roland mutters. 
“Why does he look so much like you?” Lilian questions. 
Roland looks at her funny before he takes a closer look, she’s right. The nose, the jawline, the piercing blue eyes, and possibly even his height. The only thing separating Roland from this man was his skin tone and hair colour. He looks over to Lilian, noticing her hair is darker, like the man’s. Roland furrows his eyebrows, if that’s who he thinks it is then how have he nor Lilian inherited his skin tone?
He keeps switching to different photos until he finds one with his mother and the man, she’s laughing as he has his arms around her, planting a kiss on her neck. She’s remarkably paler than she is now, Roland realizes that he and his sister are a mix of both of their skin tones. Roland keeps flipping through photos until he finds videos in the back of the memory card.
There’s a video of his mother pregnant, she sits on the couch talking to the person behind the camera. The person has the deeper voice of a man, but what’s more notable is the occasional slip of Spanish in his voice.
“Are you thinking of any names for our son?” His mother asks.
“Hmm, Rolando.” He states.
“Oh, I like that one.”
Almost in unison Roland and Lilian look at each other. “That’s our dad!” They exclaim.
Roland hears the hollering of their grandmother calling them up for lunch, “We’d better get going.” Roland tells his sister, Lilian nods and they head up.
“What were you two doing down there?” Their grandmother asks.
“We found an old camera, there’s baby pictures of Roland and I on there,” Lilian says. Suddenly both Roland’s mother and his grandmother look panicked. 
“Oh, I’m sorry I should have hid that better.” His grandmother tells his mother.
“What’s the problem?” Roland interrogates.
“Well, I had it hidden for a reason, it was your father’s.” His mother tells him.
Lilian sits down at the table. “Yeah, we know that we saw him.”
“And you’re not freaked out?” His grandmother asks.
“We never knew what he looked like, it’s kind of nice to see him,” Roland replies.
“Well you should know he’s a criminal, he got put in jail for government theft.” His grandmother says.
“I know that!” Roland snaps. “It doesn't even matter anyway, he’s probably been shilled by now.”
“Good riddance!” His grandmother slowly goes off into a mutter. “I had enough of that filthy immigrant anyway.”
Roland catches what she’s saying and stands up. “What the hell did you just say?!” He yells at her.
She sighs angrily. “I did a lot to make sure you weren’t associated with him. He tried giving you a Spanish name, but I said no, and Cindy had him compromise by giving you an American version. He tried the same shit again when your sister was born. I just knew he’d turn out horrible, I couldn’t bear for him to name you.” She tries giving him a sympathetic look, but Roland shakes his head.
“I’m not hungry anymore.” He gets up from the table.
“Roland…” His mother calls out for him.
“I said I’m not hungry anymore.” He states again.
“Are you not ready for a tough conversation?” His grandmother questions.
Roland whips his head around, letting out a “tch” noise. “Tough conversation my ass, you called someone you think is dead a filthy immigrant!”
Peacefully, Roland leaves for the upstairs’ Juliet balcony, he slides open the window; taking a fresh breath of air whilst a screaming match happens below. ‘Poor Lilian.’ He thinks he'd go back down there, but he’d risk becoming part of the screaming match too. Roland slams his fist against the wrought iron. ‘Coward!’
Soon Roland hears Lilian cry and it breaks his heart, the screaming dies down after that, no one wants to make her cry. 
Roland hears someone climb the stairs, he thinks it’s Lilian, but it’s his mother. She joins him at the window.
“Rolando and Liliana.” She finally says.
“Huh?”
“That’s what he wanted to name you two.” 
“Oh.”
His mother takes a breath. “You know, you look just like him, just lighter.” 
“I know, I saw the photos.”
They just sit there in silence looking at the beach before his mother says something again. 
“He didn’t get shilled, Roland.” 
“He didn’t?!” Roland is surprised.
“No, he was released just recently, I was thinking of taking you two to visit him next weekend.” 
“Why can’t we go tomorrow?”
His mother gives him a dirty look. “Roland, we’re at your grandmother’s house.”
Roland gives her a dirty look back. “Oh boo hoo, she’s being xenophobic, and I don’t want to be here!” 
His mother tries to give him the same sympathetic look his grandmother was doing. 
“Hey! If you’re standing with her, you’re no better than her.” Roland snaps. 
His mother sighs, “Roland we’d have to take an overnight plane.” 
“Will that be a problem for Lilian?”
“…no.”
“Fine by me then, now if you don’t mind, I’m going to go comfort my sister.”

Hakuno and Rin in any context where they're not doomed by the narrative.

She also runs from the labs to Ishtar's room and tells her to put Rin in the driver's seat because Damn Rin, look how much my alter-ego was compressing into her breastplate.

smut, ntr, Ntr plot with Yu Mei Ren but the entire time she just complains about how Xiang Yu has a better cock and is nicer in bed, with an annoyed tone of voice.
Ok so in Pokemon, Ninetails (kitsune pokemon with, well, nine tails) has a pokedex entry that states that touching their tails leads to a curse.

The last thing she sees before she loses control is her Master pinned to a wall, looking up at her with a worried expression.

Castoria's dreams about Saber framed as cucking Knocknarea.

Dark Young Ritsuka is big and fluffy and a horrible abomination against nature whose mind is on the edge of sanity. How does everyone else react?
Guda secretly uses a command spell Nemo forcing him to take them to the imaginary numbers space where he suspects a certain someone is. Now knowing it is possible for him to make a contract with a Beast he plans on finding Olga, becoming her master and bringing her back to Chaldea, even if it means becoming an enemy of the human Order. Sadly for them, Alaya does not take this betrayal well and despite all their effort, it ends with Guda and Olga both dying fighting an army countless of servants in each other's arms
Wakchan/U-Olgamarie. Fluff or smut, I just want my dinoman to make the director happy.
Would It be possible to get Yu Mei Ren teaching Gudako to pole dance? (Yu's summer variant very much seems to confirm she knows how, based on her animations). Not intended to be Gudako/Yu, not a fan of NTR in the first place, but if the writer wants to make it some kind of Erotic that's up to them.
Crossover
Led by a transmission in the immediate aftermath of the Earth's bleaching, the remnants of Chaldea reach Baldanders, and are greeted by Sion Eltnam Sokaris, the last remaining member of the Atlas Institute and adoptive daughter of its director... alongside her wife, Riesbyfe Stridberg, a former captain of Knights of the Holy Church.
Crossover fic! Raikou FGO and Raikou Nioh 2 fuck!
Satsuki Yumizuka/Yu Mei-ren as a ship! preferably SFW
I just think heaven's hole demonic bodhisattva kiara sessyoin(fate go/extra) should meet with 'Throughout Heaven and earth, I alone am the honored one' satoru gojo(jujutsu kaisen). they should talk. they should fight. they should have hate sex. i want to see kiara tear through this man with her words and hands. maybe her demonic pillars as well
Mikya, Shirou, Shiki and Hakuno have a nice chat about their apocalyptically strong wives. Meanwhile Ryougi, Sakura, Arcueid and Beast Nero are having a small scale war to see who among them has the best husband
Guda and Beast Nero go on a double date with Hakuno and Normal Nero
smut, With new developments of FGO, Nero Beast has revealed her adult form and that who guided her to us was Hakuno. So after all that suffering she endured or girl deserve to be smashed by both Hakuno and Guda to relieve her stress!
Tepeu just hanging out in Tohno mansion in general, being a good guest to the household, still a dinosaur.
lumine & gudako should get together and have a few beers while they bitch about their brother/ male counterpart keeps hogging the spotlight.
Someone please make a Umineko/Fate crossover
Any fandom
Need more tentacles! Preferably with Gudako! Or Eresh! Or Mash! Or Shuten! Or any of the female cast!
Regardless of the paths they take, of the sacrifices they make, they always find comfort in each other. [Hurt/Comfort] (Shirou variants/Saber variants) No harem, but could reuse characters if doing them at a separate instances of time. Technically asking for a series of different Shirou/Saber pairings, but can also just be one pairing because that's a tall order. Would prefer to see at least Salter/Demiya (Or Edgemiya, whichever naming you prefer) because there's a lack of content for them.
Heartwarming Body Horror. I want a character's inhuman condition to be described, how much they're a monster in the shell of human form, really playing up the unnatural traits. Then I want another character to see all that and go "I love you." and give 'em a hug and kisses and maybe lewds. Shoot me in the feels.
Characters of your choice getting stuck in a cabin together with a storm outside
Pancakes lmao

hello cece my beloved soulmate <3
it is that time, the time where i promised i would tell you about my slight break over these two weeks! i made a cup of tea for you to keep your hands warm while i tell you all about it <3
so firstly, the musical. so as you know, i went to see six the musical, and it was so good! it was a historical musical similar to hamilton, but it was about king henry viii's six wives and they were in a GIRL GROUP! the music was so good, and i have so much envy for how much stamina the performers had, considering there were only the six of them doing all the vocals and all the dancing with no break. it was almost like being at a concert! and i also got taken to this fine dining restaurant attached to the theatre beforehand and i had this really nice rigatoni dish and a mango sorbet (and an apple cider hehe). it was amazing :D
so i took this whole weekend off (friday-sunday) so i could travel and not worry for time. i celebrated one of my best friend's birthdays at a korean bbq place, and it was so good. i've never done it before and it has been on my bucket list for quite some time. i also had soju for the first time as well, it was this peach flavour and i almost forgot it was alcoholic (it was like three drinks in one LMAO) because it tastes exactly like peaches. my friend also really liked her gift (she discovered young royals, so i got her this young royals tote bag), so that made me happy :')
and then the big event of the weekend, i still haven't processed it has happened, but i went and saw rina sawayama in concert. RINA SAWAYAMA! she's actually a real person???? i did tear up seeing her, i will not lie. my throat is sore from singing every single word (i was so proud of myself). i'm sad that lots of my concert videos were ruined by people who are six foot tall and waited to be at the front. (i only got there two hours early and i was second row from the front.), but it was a spiritual experience nevertheless.
and the people there were so nice, it was almost homely. a guy said he loved my glasses (i bought these red elton john looking glasses just for the show) and i took them off while telling him about them, and then he was like "your eye makeup! shut the fuck up, i love it!" unfortunately, i lost him once we got into the venue and my eye makeup melted :'( we also had some people try and invite us out to go clubbing after, but i was so overwhelmed with seeing rina IN PERSON!!! and also i had red tear streaks down my face from my sweat reactivating my red water-activated eyeliner. plus, i don't think i would have gotten into the clubs with two shirts folded into my pockets...
anyways, enough about me! tell me how your day and your week has been, what you've been up to. has work been treating you well? have you been getting more rest? looking after yourself properly? i'm sending you a tight hug and a kiss on the forehead <3333
hiii nero my beloved soulmate!!! i’d missed you!! <3
aw how did you know?? my hands are super cold right now, i really need that cup of tea <3
no way!! NO WAY!!! the six wives of henry viii in a girl group??? i feel the need to see this musical now. honestly a girl group, and they were singing and dancing all the time?? i’m in love just hearing you talk about it!! it sounds like it was really amazing!!! and that rigatoni dish and mango sorbet also sound sooo good :D
A YOUNG ROYALS TOTE BAG?? 😻 i’m in love and i need one too now!!! i’m very glad your friend liked it but of course she would!!! also, i’ve never tried soju and now i really want to!! i’m really craving peaches and soju
YOU WENT TO SEE RINA??? HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS?? nero i’m so happy for you!!! your love for rina sawayama is legendary and i can’t believe you saw her live!!! i really hate all those super tall people at concerts but i’m so happy you loved it and you sand every ingle word!!! you know it was a really great concert when you’ve got a sore throat for screaming along to the songs
and the people 🥺 god i love those concerts where the people are just like a family. it makes the whole atmosphere so much better. and those glasses must have looked so cool!!! also, i love water activated eyeliners, but they do not hold up well with sweat lol but it’s a concert so of course your make up would totally melt during it 😂 but the read tear streaks down your face must have looked so cool!!! and sorry but how exactly did you have two shirts folded into your pockets?? 😂
i’m so happy it was such a great weekend!! it really sounds like it was wonderful and i’m so happy you saw rina IN PERSON!!! i could listen to you talk about this musical and this concert for days!! and also the food :)
as for me, i have been getting a little more sleep, and i also got more time to catch up with some friends and relax!! i have two days off this week (finally) and last week i went to a birthday party with some friends from work that i barely manage to see out of the shop, and we had a lot of fun. we also ate a lot at the buffet of course :D and now i’m currently sitting on my bed, wrapped in a warm blanket with simba purring on my lap, and this is how i plan to spend my whole day off 😌
i’m hugging you back real tight and spinning you around to the music of rina sawayama <3

Adessa for the teddy bear one which i cannot find,🔒,🌅,💔,⚔,🚩,💭, and 🚫 please? Apologies for those many, i just really like Adessa.
Something Adessa likes and is embarrassed to admit is writing trashy fiction. (It's not trashy, she says, it's genre-conforming.) She hides or destroys her rough drafts mainly so that Misha and Devon can't get their hands on them (and they've tried.)
Adessa sleeps right in the middle of the bed, with a different amount of blankets depending on the season. She does not snore, thank you very much. She's actually a very quiet sleeper, and very still.
Likewise, she wakes up and goes to sleep on a regimented schedule. Not entirely sure I know what it is, but she keeps to it very strictly to get the scientifically-mandated eight-hours-or-more a night while still giving her time to do things. While out in the Capitol, obviously, the sponsors' demands have to come first, so if there's a highbrow big money meeting at one A.M., she'll go, but she wouldn't normally stay up that late.
Adessa has had only one long term relationship and she intends to keep it that way. But if anyone ever tried to hit on her (Misha did canonically try), she has absolutely no problem turning them down with extreme prejudice.
Adessa isn't scared of much, but she is terrified of losing control of herself. She sees the younger, wilder victors and she cares about them, but also, some class, darling. She's also very worried about Nero, given his situation with the sex slavery, especially when he was a fresh victor.
Adessa can be cold and also snobby. She tends to look down a bit on those who aren't as educated as she is, and as her interests are very pretentious compared to most of Two, she has a bit of a superiority complex about it. She's also not great with emotional closeness, which was hard on Nero. She's not going to be anyone's therapist, basically. There are others in the Village who can fill that role, but not here.
Something embarrassing that keeps her up at night? She once lost a bet and (like Brutus) ended up having to watch Callista's cats for a weekend. Oh dear. Other than and after that, she purposefully does not put herself into situations with the potential to embarrass herself.
Something odd about Adessa is that she has dissected a human before, and if she hates someone enough (like the people who buy Nero for sex) she would absolutely do it again. She also keeps a briefcase completely full of knives that folds out with multiple layers, which, even though there are plenty of weapons in the Village, is seen as a tad overkill.
Never apologize, Adessa is amazing.

Movies I watched this Week # 144 (Year 3/Week 40):
“Are you girls ready for the greatest weekend of your life?"
- You say that every weekend! -
"Well, yeah, we’re doing that again”
People, places, things used to be my one of favourite movies to re-watch with Adora 6-7 years ago, as we were all struggling with the dynamics of the similar, sudden changes in our lives. A very sweet Brooklyn Indie about a single dad to cute 6 year old twin daughters. Genuine and delicate romance with sharp dialogue about love and hurt. It was my introduction to a group of ‘minor’ actors I had followed since, Jemaine Clement, Regina Hall, Jessica Williams, Michael Chernus. Feel Good and heart warming. 10/10.
🍿
3 Film Noir with Gloria Grahame:
🍿 The Big heat, Fritz Lang's 1953 paranoid Noir about honest homicide detective Glenn Ford going against all-city police corruption. With young Lee Marvin, playing a creepy “Heavy”, as well as Marlon Brando’s sister. 8/10.
🍿 The following year, Fritz Lang again directed Glenn Ford as a straight up train engineer as he falls again for Gloria Grahame in Human desire. But the woman is not a heartless Femme fatale. She's an abused wife, with a history of being harmed by men her whole life, who can't find any easy way to survive. Based on 'La Bête humaine' by Émile Zola (which I didn't read).
🍿 Re-watch: Nicholas Ray’s In a lonely place. Humphrey Bogart is rage-filled, entitled writer, who becomes a suspect in a murder while falling for Grahame who lives across the courtyard of his Hollywood apartment. A mystery about a dark and self-centered male, who's allowed to be aggravated and aggressive when he doesn't get his way. (Photo Above).
🍿
“Oy! Keep your fingers out of my soup!”
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, my third Guy Ritchie / Matthew Vaughn crime caper. I really don't understand why I resisted checking them out up to now. This, Snatch, Layer cake, all terrific, gritty, multi-layered Tarantino-style black comedies. 8/10.
🍿
2 by French screenwriter Emmanuèle Bernheim, both directed by François Ozon:
🍿 My favorite random discovery of the week: Swimming pool. An erotic thriller with bookish Charlotte Rampling as a middle-aged British author, single and reserved, who travels to a summer villa in Avignon. Like most stories of Northerners in the South of Europe, she falls into a trap of unexpected dreams and desires, when a young promiscuous girl invades her vacation. Ambiguous play of realty and fantasy leaves this a bit of a mystery, like the books she usually writes.
🍿 5X2 is a small story about the disintegration of a middle class marriage, told in reverse order. The first of five episodes, (each lasting exactly 18 minutes), starts at a lawyer's office, reading the terms of the divorce between a husband and wife. And the other chapters go back into other times in the relationship. All the way to the first one years ago when they met at an Italian resort. It's an engaging and bitter-sweet drama, but without any conclusive and clear insights: Yes, love is impossible, sex is unexplained, nobody is at fault.
Between each episode, Italian pop songs from the 1960's comment on the meaning of each move. 7/10.
🍿
Gregory’s Girl, the feel-good Scottish comedy by Bill Forsyth, about an awkward teenager who falls for a soccer playing girl. A wholesome coming-of-age, sweet and charming.
🍿
Martin Scorsese X 2:
🍿In a 25-minutes conversation with GQ, Scorsese breaks down his most iconic films, 'Taxi Driver,' 'Gangs of New York,' 'Goodfellas,' 'The Departed,' 'Raging Bull,' 'The Wolf of Wall Street,' 'Mean Streets,' 'The Irishman,' 'Silence,' and 'Killers of the Flower Moon.
🍿 I wished I had seen Mean Streets decades ago, before all of his other gangster movies; Now I must compare it to 'Goodfellas' and 'Casino'. Obviously it's still a younger filmmaker at the beginning of his mastery of the craft. It's odd to observe De Nero as a total 'Loser', a small time, good for nothing, deadbeat wannabe. A character study more than an action film.
🍿
Ram Dass, going home, a quiet documentary about spiritual "guru" Baba Ram Dass at the end of his life, dispensing ancient words of wisdom as he reflects on life and death at his home in Maui. Sagely, meditatively, peacefully, it's a simple and peaceful poem of spirituality.
🍿
3 classic comedies:
🍿 The bank dick, WC Fields as Egbert Sousé, a goofy drunk. Written by his alias Mahatma Kane Jeeves, filmed and presented in Lompoc, CA, and much of the story centered around The Black Pussy Cat bar. It ends with a hilarious car race that is both wild and hilarious.
🍿 First watch: Buster Keaton’s last great film, the 1928 The Cameraman. "The worst mistake of his life" he called it, because with his move to MGM and various studio politics, he lost his ability to control his productions. Agile and romantic.
🍿 Triple trouble is an unusual Charlie Chaplin 2-reeler from 1918. It combines a number of primitive Chaplin-directed scenes, which were edited by Essaney Studio, against his wishes, as he left them to form his own. A patchwork of pratfalls, slapstick, and visual jokes, that don't form a coherent story.
🍿
The trailer for the restored Belle De Jour tempts me to watch this subversive masterpiece again and again!
🍿
An experimental short by infamous Danish surrealist artist Wilhelm Freddie, (together with Jørgen Roos) Eaten horizons. 21 years after Buñuel‘s ‘Andalusian Dog’, it demonstrates unfiltered inspiration from the master.
🍿
While waiting for his ‘Zone of interest’, here is Jonathan Glazer’s banned commercial for Cadbury’s Flake chocolate. Recently I watched the many commercials he directed on his old YouTube channel, (for example, his Guinness black swim),
but now I also saw his music videos, which he directed between his four features. 33 in total. "Today I learnt" that I don’t care much for music videos.
🍿
(My complete movie list is here)

Experience the Taste of Italy: Top Italian Restaurants in Sydney You Must Try
From the sunny coast to the snow-covered mountains in the north, Italy has a wide range of foods that food fans all over the world enjoy.
We're lucky to have a little bit of Italy right here in the city, thanks to the many Italian restaurants in Sydney that are always busy. Whether you're looking for the best pasta in Sydney or the best Italian food in Sydney, this guide will take you on a culinary journey and show you the best Italian places in the city that you have to try.
1. Funkatello: The Italian Gem
The number one spot on our list goes to Funkatello, the Italian gem. This Italian restaurant does a great job of mixing traditional recipes with a modern twist, making for an eating experience that is both traditional and unique. Here, you can eat everything from delicious osso buco to mouthwatering tiramisu. Each dish is carefully made to make your taste buds feel like they are in Italy. And, of course, their best pasta in Sydney, so anyone who loves pasta should go to Funkatello.
2. 10 William Street
Chef Francesco Ruggiero of William Street's fresh, wine-friendly meal for Bill stays true to this rule for best Italian food in sydney. This hip dive bar's hidden hit is the light and delicate farinata pancake with anchovies, mascarpone, and herbs on top. Ask the helpful staff for help with the long list of minimal intervention wines, one of the restaurant's specialties, including well-known brands like Jean-Francois Ganevat, Sami-Odi, and Paolo Bea. It is now possible to book a table ahead of time.
3. AlbertoÕs Lounge
You can have the best time with the best food here. In an alley, cozy wooden seats and a painting by artist Allie Webb that is only one color stand out. At Alberto's, the food is filling, real, and very tasty. You should order a bottle of wine to go with the restaurant's delicious homemade pasta. The linguine al nero, which is served with king prawns, tomato, and saffron butter, is a great example. How could you not like it?
4. aÕMare
On a nice weekend, there should be enough people to fill all 200 seats at a'Mare Stanley street restaurants. First, it is one of the country's best models of classic Italian luxury. The chef at Ormeggio in charge of the more unusual meals, Alessandro Pavoni, seems to be having a great time with the idea. He walks around on the soft carpet while waitresses in uniform mix pesto at each table. Along with a great list of wines, the staff is knowledgeable and fun to talk to. Big? Expensive?Sure. Special? Plus a lot more!
5. Fontana
The basic decor of the diner is broken up by a plant here and there and an abstract oil-and-pastel painting by Chanel Tobler. But what Fontana lacks in decor, it makes up for in interesting food and out-of-the-ordinary Australian and Italian wines.
Paccheri pasta, the best pasta in Sydney, is served with a kangaroo-tail ragu stewed in red wine and stock, which is similar to the cozy oxtail stew coda alla vaccinara. A special slab of ricotta is made fresh every morning and served with just olive oil. And the best part? Fontana has a fixed location, while Don Peppino's moves around.
Conclusion
When you eat the best Italian food in Sydney, you get more than just a full stomach. It's about getting to know Italy's rich history, culture, and customs right here in our beautiful city. Whether you have the best pasta in Sydney at Funkatello, check out the lively Stanley Street restaurants, or treat yourself to a fancy meal in a Darlinghurst restaurant, you're taking part in a culinary journey that goes from Sydney to the heart of Italy. And what's the best part? You can get a taste of Italy whenever you want by making an appointment.

Parla Saintpaul Dj: Sunset Aperitif @ Doride Beach... E Marina di Carrara diventa Ibiza
Abbiamo incontrato Paolo Signanini, al mixer Dj Saintapul, esperto professionista della musica,  a tutto campo. Si occupa di discografia, editoria musicale, intrattenimento, party e non solo. Tutto questo, tra l'altro, sempre col sorriso sulle labbra. Gli abbiamo chiesto di raccontarci un suo evento di successo assoluto, Sunset Aperitif, al Doride Beach di Marina di Carrara (MS)... e non solo. Il prossimo appuntamento è previsto per il 14 maggio '23. E' un gran bel modo per chiudere il weekend, ballando e/o bevendo qualcosa, in una spiaggia speciale, con un party che non ha nulla da invidiare a quelli proposti a Ibiza o a Riccione.
Ci racconti come è nato Sunset Aperitif? 
Nasce da una voglia di fare qualcosa in una fascia oraria differente dalla notte. Abbiamo a disposizione infatti il "posto perfetto", con tramonto, mare e isole... sarebbe stato un errore non farlo, sembra di essere a Ibiza. Il successo è stato inaspettato, ovviamente sperato, ma superiore a quello che immaginavamo.
E' un party a ingresso libero... ma selezionato. Come avete ideato questa formula?
Il concetto di base era di creare un punto di ritrovo con un approccio easy in cui concludere la settimana e la giornata prima di affrontare il back to work. Era ed è fondamentale selezionare la clientela, per avere una certa omogeneità di pubblico. L'ingresso libero con selezione permette di offrire un ambiente particolare. Offrire non significa regalare a tutti.
Che tipo di musica proponete?
Iniziamo con la Nu disco, per poi sfociare in house con il calare del sole, l'atmosfera che si è creata con il tramonto. L'avanzare della notte aiuta molto nell'onda musicale che va a salire. In questa operazione Luca Pedonese, che  ha il compito di iniziare il viaggio musicale. Ballare sotto al sole e sul mare rende tutto più magico.
La location, Doride Beach di Marina di Carrara (MS) è senz'altro un punto di riferimento...
Il Doride Beach è un rinomatissimo stabilimento balneare, con un ristorante ricostruito di sana pianta qualche anno fa. Ha una clientela d'eccellenza, meta di vip e personaggi tv. Ci gireranno anche alcune scene di un film a breve.
Ci racconti la tua carriera fin qui? Fai musica, produci artisti, fai il dj, organizzi eventi…
Quanto tempo abbiamo? Scherzi a parte, inizio negli anni 90 come dj, successivamente comincio a produrre musica e apro una società editoriale. Costruisco una struttura fatta di studi in condivisione che si chiama The Hub Studios, che lavora quasi soltanto a progetti cui sono interessato dal punto di vista artistico.Oltre ad avere un grande catalogo editoriale da amministrare, lavoro nel circuito Eurovision e curo diverse colonne sonore. Con i miei artisti ho fortunatamente ottenuto ottimi risultati all'estero (tour, televisione e vittorie ai Festival). In Italia, serate a parte, musicalmente produco poche cose. L'ultima  è "Blind", per cui ho scritto "Cuore nero". Con questo progetto abbiamo raggiunto disco d'oro e platino. 
Qualcosa mi dice che non è tutto...
Non infatti, sto anche seguendo alcuni nuovi talenti. Ho poi creato un side project, una band formata da me ed Eliza G con cui siamo entrati nella sezione Big delle selezioni per l'Eurovision. Proprio con questo progetto ci aspettano diversi concerti in UK. Recentemente,  a Los Angeles ho ricevuto una importante certificazione per aver superato il miliardo di streaming con i progetti che ho scritto, prodotto e arrangiato. 
Sono veramente tante cose, sei sempre in movimento.
Potrei andare avanti, ma la chiudo qui dicendoti che gli eventi li organizzo principalmente per avere un mio format/party come fanno tutti i dj all'estero, un contenitore in cui poter proporre quello che si vuole. Ho la fortuna di mettere musica sempre in luoghi stupendi, in Italia e fuori.
Quali sono, a tue parere, le nuove tendenze in ambito eventi musica e divertimento? 
La gente ha voglia di emozionarsi, i club hanno bisogno di tornare ad essere tali con impianti e musica di qualità. La crisi esiste ma non per chi offre qualcosa di importante. Ci sono club nel mondo e festival che fanno pagare ticket importanti e sono sold out. Paghi, ma vivi qualcosa di unico, chi pensa che mettere quattro casse che gracchiano due luci bruciate e ragazze immagine basti è rimasto all'era paleozoica, confondendo il club con la nightlife. Il sound sta diventato sempre più emozionale, con melodie prevalentemente in minore e vicino alla trance ma in chiave progressive. In questo senso sono rappresentativi i set dei Tale of Us ed altri artisti. Esistono parallelamente eventi mainstream, pop & reggaeton. Anche questo tipo di eventi funziona, ma solo quando offre cose concrete. Aumenta anche la tendenza di posti alternativi in cui ballare. Funzionano solo quando suggestivi.
Qual è il segreto di un evento perfetto? 
Esistesse una regola sarebbe semplice, penso sempre quello che vorrei trovare se andassi ad un evento. Credo  che sia cosi anche per gli altri, sono molto esigente e questo aiuta a essere "perfetto". Essendo del settore musicale per me musica, impianto e location sono al primo posto. Seguono clientela e servizio. 
C'è spazio lavorativo per chi vuole occuparsi di eventi come organizzatore o artista? Che profilo dovrebbe avere chi lo fa?
C'è molto spazio, sopratutto nel mondo, necessità competenza e capire le tendenze e cavalcarle al momento giusto, cambiando quando è necessario. Il mercato, specie dopo il Covid, ha bisogno di professionisti, persone che sappiano conoscano  anche il  marketing e l'organizzazione a 360 gradi.
Cosa hanno in comune gli eventi diurni dedicati al pubblico o agli addetti ai lavori e ciò che invece prende vita di sera e di notte?
Sono due contesti diversi, il giorno rende tutto più affascinante perché "informale" e naturale, la sensazione di essere liberi di poter ballare dove vuoi di giorno diventa una cosa che ha quel valore aggiunto rispetto al club tradizionale. Se poi pensi che molti eventi diurni finiscono presto questo permette alle persone il giorno dopo di essere in super forma.. Allo stesso tempo, la notte è magica. Il telefono smette di suonare per lavoro, tranne quando ci sentiamo tra addetti ai lavori. Con il buio tutto tutto prende profondità... e diventa clubbing. Non vedo differenza tra evento per pubblico o addetti ai lavori. In ogni caso, tutti siamo persone che si vogliono divertire.

Essendo del settore musicale per me musica, impianto e location sono al primo posto. Seguono clientela e servizio. 
C'è spazio lavorativo per chi vuole occuparsi di eventi come organizzatore o artista? Che profilo dovrebbe avere chi lo fa?
C'è molto spazio, sopratutto nel mondo, necessità competenza e capire le tendenze e cavalcarle al momento giusto, cambiando quando è necessario. Il mercato, specie dopo il Covid, ha bisogno di professionisti, persone che sappiano conoscano  anche il  marketing e l'organizzazione a 360 gradi.
Cosa hanno in comune gli eventi diurni dedicati al pubblico o agli addetti ai lavori e ciò che invece prende vita di sera e di notte?
Sono due contesti diversi, il giorno rende tutto più affascinante perché "informale" e naturale, la sensazione di essere liberi di poter ballare dove vuoi di giorno diventa una cosa che ha quel valore aggiunto rispetto al club tradizionale. Se poi pensi che molti eventi diurni finiscono presto questo permette alle persone il giorno dopo di essere in super forma.. Allo stesso tempo, la notte è magica. Il telefono smette di suonare per lavoro, tranne quando ci sentiamo tra addetti ai lavori. Con il buio tutto tutto prende profondità... e diventa clubbing. Non vedo differenza tra evento per pubblico o addetti ai lavori. In ogni caso, tutti siamo persone che si vogliono divertire.
