fan fiction ideaaaaaaaaaa! ❤️
Shadowsan has to trust chief with his life during a caper, and Carmen knows that it’s like the only way to save some sort of artifact or something like that, but she doesn’t trust chief whatsoever, due to the trauma that cheif did kill Carmen’s biological father, so Carm is like super scared and worried for Dadowsan.
I just thought it was a good idea, something that could be used later on for you, but it’s like your choice if you actually want chief to make a mistake and then something happens to shadowsan, and then Carmen is like super pissed…….like dangerously pissed………but it’s totally up to you if you want to make it a happy ending or a sad ending lol 😘😘😘
your amazing and tysm for all you do for this fandom, your pretty awesome and I see ur stuff all the time, you are a writing genius pretty much lolll ❤️
Omg stop it, I'll cry right now-- that was such a kind thing to say about my writing. It really made my day ❤️
Anyways, here ya go! It's not very long and I'm not sure it's quite what you had in mind, but I'm happy with it. This takes place post series.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She was a light stepper, but that's never meant much to him. He raised her from infancy; he knew her presence well.
"Are you going to lurk there all day," he asked, "Or are you going to say hello?"
He turned around, abandoning the task of polishing his newly--and legally-- acquired swords. Carmen glanced at him wordlessly, contributing nothing. She was sullen as stared down at the hotel room's desk, absently running her fingers along the surface. Her lips were slightly pursed and her eyebrows were drawn. He recognized the look well, and seeing it, he may as well have been picked up by the scruff and placed back in time twelve years.
Black Sheep had never been much of a reticent child, but when she wanted something she knew they wouldn't allow, she took her time to work up the will to ask. She would become silent and broody, and Shadowsan always found it amusing how transparent children could be.
"Is there something you want?"
She glared down at the desk, fingers drawing still. He folded his hands behind his back as he waited on her.
"...Let me come with you." She said.
"No."
"Shadowsan."
"You are in no condition," He said, nodding to her arm in a cast. "How did that even happen?"
"I don't want to talk about it." She muttered.
He hummed and made a mental note to ask Player about it later.
"I thought you were out of the game," She said, "What changed?"
He looked at her, eyebrows raised. "I could ask the same of you. Why are you here, Carmen?"
She snorted. "I'm only partly retired. You know I can't sit still."
He considered this. He nodded.
"Point."
"Why are you doing this, Shadowsan? What happened to living a normal life?"
"This operation hits close to home. Various museums around the country have been the targets of often violent robberies. ACME Intel indicates that Matsumoto could be next."
"'Could be,' huh? Give me and Player two hours and we'll get you definite answers."
He frowned at her, eyes narrowing.
"What is this about, child?"
"I'm not a child." She muttered.
He rolled his eyes. "Forgive an old man for his habits."
She turned away from him.
"Carmen."
She stared at the floor, shoulders held stiffly with tension.
He pressed again. "What is bothering you?"
She huffed. "It's just..."
She trailed off, her fists clenching as she spun back around.
"...Why do you have to work with her?!"
He blinked, somewhat taken aback. That's what this was about? She'd come all the way to Japan just to plead with him against working with ACME's chief...? He thought her issue with the Chief had been long resolved, was there something he was missing?
"I mean, what's it even about? Chief doesn't do field work! That's weird! And why couldn't you have partnered with literally anyone else? Fuck! You, Zack, and Ivy have tons of experience working together. You could have worked with Jules, or Devineaux, or even Zari! I don't trust it."
He grunted. "I would not work with that French idiot even if my life depended on it."
"Why her?"
He hummed. "I imagine it has to do with me being ex-VILE. It would make sense if she wanted to make sure of my allegiances herself."
"That's ridiculous. She has both Zack and Ivy's word. If she trusts them then she should trust you."
"ACME's chief is a cautious woman."
"Oh, really. Wasn't very cautious of her when she pulled a gun on my father."
Oh.
Okay. He understood now.
"Are you worried she's going to..?"
She hugged herself, suddenly looking very unsure of herself.
"No... Yes. Maybe... I don't know. Just let me come with you..?"
He sighed heavily and approached her. He put a hand on her shoulder and waited for her to look at him.
"I will be fine," He assured her, "I've been in and out of this game for a long time. Even if she does try anything-- which I know she won't-- I am perfectly capable of defending myself."
"I know, but--"
"--Have you been doing okay?"
"...What?"
"Have you been doing okay? You know I am happy to have you here, but I must admit that I'm worried about you. You flew all the way here, and for what? To accuse a woman you yourself have worked with of plotting something insidious? It's uncharitable, and I hate to say it, but incredibly irrational."
She pulled away from him.
"I'm fine." She insisted, "God, you and Player sound exactly alike."
"Player is an intelligent young man."
She rolled her eyes. "Alright, fine, whatever. Maybe I'm being unfair, but you'll have to excuse me if I trust a little less after all the shit I've been through."
She swallowed harshly and swiped at her eyes. He watched her silently, a dull ache in his throat and a stabbing desire in his heart to vanish anything that troubled her.
"Perhaps I should move closer to you, I--"
"What? No. Shadowsan, that's-- No. You're finally back with your brother, you don't have to--"
"--I don't have a responsibility to Hideo, Carmen. You're like a daughter to me, and if you're struggling--"
"--I'm not struggling."
"It's okay if you are."
"Well, I'm not. And it's fine. I have Player. You don't have to uproot your entire life for me."
He smiled ruefully. Of course she wouldn't understand, it wasn't her job to.
Back in the beginning, years and years ago, he'd never been one to care much about anything. Life had not been kind to him, and so he was not kind to others. But it was in those early days, the first few sleepless nights before the nannies showed up, that he found himself actually concerned about somebody else. Holding the child, wishing desperately that she would just go the fuck to sleep, he came to reckon with his role in her life. He had, completely and irrevocably, changed the course of her entire life. She was his responsibility, and it wasn't about him anymore. Anything he'd ever do would have to be for her. This was the burden he shouldered.
(he'd choose this burden time and time again.)
"I uprooted your entire life, are you sure you don't want to return the favor?"
She snorted, a small smile that she tried to fight gracing her lips.
"I want you to reconnect with your brother."
"And I want to make sure you're happy."
"I am happy, Shadowsan. I just... have a lot going on." Her voice sort of hitched at the end, and ouch. It pained him to see her like this.
She shuffled closer to him and he recognized the action for what it was. Even as a child, she could never bring herself to ask for affection. She'd just kind of follow you around and stare up at you and wait until you got the message. The other three never quite caught on-- or, they did, and they opted to ignore her. Then there was Coach Brunt, and that was just... Ugh.
Understanding her need, he took her and held her close. She threw her arms around him, burying her face in his shoulder.
"I've just been so... weird lately."
"It's understandable after all you've been through."
"I can barely relax."
He had no good response to that. He pet her hair instead.
"I don't want to lose you."
"I know."
"...I um. You know that I love you, right?"
He smiled softly, quiet content spreading warm in his chest. He kissed the crown of her head.
"I know. I love you too."o

Me: I don’t have that many wtnv playlists, right?
My Spotify: has ones for Vanessa, Maddy, Kevin, Strex, and my OC Voice Emory.
Me: Okay that’s a lot but-
My notes app: has the rough outlines of what one day would have been 8tracks playlists for Carlos/Kevin, Kevin/Cecil, and the three of them together. And also also like 10 saved tracklistings from when 8tracks went down and I thought it important to save them.
Me: …okay so maybe I have a lot.

"You guys pointed out to me that this is the thirteenth year of me putting out albums, which is my lucky number and so I figured, like, we've gotta do something. And I was thinking about the concept of it having been thirteen years since my first album came out, and so I thought maybe something… it would be cool to do something sort of retrospective. Sort of looking back at the times that we've had together, and I do a lot of thinking about time, the passage of time, lessons learned, memories… And I think that you know, oftentimes when uh, you live your life and you go through ups and downs and you learn things, when you look back at your past experiences, you look back at them with that insight of like, oh, this happened and I learned this because of it, and we sort of add value… um, or kind of… sort of, insight to our memories, so when we look back on our memories, it's not as… it's not the same as when we actually were going through them. The only way you can actually have an accurate representation of what it was like when you were going through something, is if you were to have written about it at the exact time you were going through it. And I don't know if uh, if I've really talked to you guys about this, or anything, but I've been writing in diaries since I was thirteen years old, and I've written about pretty much everything that's happened to me, um, and you know, I've written my original lyrics in those diaries, um, just feelings, you know? Uh, lessons, things you go through, and that's been one of my ways of coping with things. I need to either write songs or write something in order to like, process life."
July 23, 2019: In an Instagram Live, Taylor describes how she uses diaries as a retrospective tool to process life. (source)

Listened to the podcast series 'Eight years hard Labour' which is about the Corbyn years of Labour, and they talk a lot about the Labour party internal divide- there was the internal right wing, who were more like centrists, and the internal left wing, which was the Corbyn side. To tell you where I stand on this man: I voted for Labour, and therefore Corbyn, in both the 2017 and 2019 elections but was absolutely not part of his cult of personality, and I found it disturbing how devoted people got so quickly. Mainly the leftist queer people section of my social circle were doing a LOT of facebook meme posting in the run up to particularly the 2019 election. I could literally look down my feed and see a very long, very detailed defense of how Corbyn could not possibly be even the teeniest bit antisemitic, and below that a different Corbyn devotee would be proclaiming that the only reason Jewish Brits would not vote for Corbyn was because they were all too wealthy. I mean....what more conclusion could I possibly draw from that?? I do not care to get caught in the weeds of whether Corbyn knew what was in the fucking mural or not before saying it shouldn't have been removed, and I know the tabloids really did do plenty of smear jobs on him, but the fact that I could see his devoted supporters becoming antisemitic before my eyes was incredibly damning and was all I needed really. Anyway, obviously Corbyn lost the 2019 election by a massive amount and it was a surprise to literally no one except Corbyn's fans who had been in social media meme echo chambers the whole time. Corbyn left the Labour party and now we have Starmer who leaves a lot to be desired, but is still the head of the most left wing mainstream party. But it made me think- what hope is there for left wing politics in the UK? Can we ever hope for a hard left of the left leaning party that doesn't go off in these weird antisemitic, Putin defending directions? (Oh god...imagine Corbyn being PM during the Ukraine war. :S) Do we always have to settle for centrism just to be on the left of the Tories? We have had leftist governments in our history that brought in genuine social change, the formation of the NHS being the biggest example, so it is possible, but why are things so right wing now, and for so long, especially while things are so objectively shitty for so many people? I don't expect anyone has any answers but I want to hope for better. There are massive limitations to party politics, but I'm not an anarchist and I do think running the country is a job someone has to do. I don't know how to make things better, I just know that genuine compassion for all people is needed in order to do it, not just some people, and I don't know if hard left conspiracy types can ever feel that for people they consider their enemy.
#uk politics#i'm just rambling#btw i did comment on both the corbyn defense screed and the 'jews are all rich' screed (2nd one unfriended also)#1st one i said maybe with the same effort someone made in making this long defense corbyn should put that effort into#meeting Jewish populations in the uk and reassuring them! The person posting it was even like '...oh yeah he probably should shouldn't he'#the corbyn campaign in 2019 was a mess anyway which the podcast goes into in more detail#btw the putin defending part comes from Corbyn's response to the poisoning of the Skripals#he said there was no reason to think it was russia and also said we should send the nerve agent to russia for testing#i'm not saying we should be like 'omg red scare russia is attacking!!!!' but there was evidence to suggest it was putin#which only became more clear- not to mention the accidental death of Dawn Sturgess which happened not long after as a consequence#genuinely so fucked up! this all happened in my hometown and the surrounding area so it's particularly close to home#Corbyn just reacted super weirdly to the whole thing- he was the leader of the labour party but behaving like an online commentator#which i assume is a plus for some and a minus for most#i've tried joining a local socialist group twice now and they are pushing for a socialist party in government#but it's all super corbyn-y vibes with them- i swear it takes very little for them to start ranting about how corbyn was smeared or w/e#like...can we move on from this please!!!#and lessons learned- forget it!#anyway i'm done rambling now.

i just finished my carmen sandiego re-watch and my first time watching the last 2 episodes. I didn't actually watch the last 2 episodes when it first came out since i didnt want it to end. I also did the same thing when i watched merlin for the first time since i knew arthur would die and it definitely wouldn't get a sixth season since it came out in 2012.
Anyway, back to the point. i dont know what but carmen sandiego has stuck with me for the 4 years since it came out, and it just feels so sad watching it end knowing im not going to ever theorize what will happen to carmen and vile next season.
At the end of the episode before carmen meets her mum and when shadowsan says that anyone could be carmen sandiego while showing multiple lives she has changed for the better, it just hits me that everyone changes peoples lives even if you only knew them for a few minutes. It just depends on the way you want to change their lives.
Anyway this post made no sense.

me, eating ice cream to soothe my sore throat: life is bliss. i am happy. i am content. everything is good.
also me literally the very same second that i stop eating my ice cream: i only know pain. to breathe is agony. to talk is torture. to swallow is like ingesting flickering flame. i see no end in sight to my suffering. i weaken by the second yet i will strive to stay strong.
the pain killers/cold or allergy medicine that would take away my pain in less than an hour if i just fucking took it: hey so i am actually RIGHT here and—
me, staring longingly out the window: when i was but a child such woes could not stop me. now i lay, boneless and tired, as i attempt to cope with constant discomfort. with endless pain. with existence and the inconveniences it continues to bring. the bravery must come from within. i shall survive this but i have yet to figure out how. the day drags on. i drag my feet. the world was heavy enough without the pain. now i simply collapse if i try to carry it. still i push forward.

Ok, I think it's prime time for this post. So, I've been tired of the live action remakes as much as everyone else, no need to reiterate, they started interesting but tumbled into what seems like a daily occurrence. But there's something that I must point out.
Back in the 90s they had movies that weren't animated but the animals talked, done with real animals and people dubbed over them. There's wasn't CGI to move their mouths so it was awkward. Now and days, we have the technology but it's not satisfying when a studio like Disney has an iconic design that everyone knows and they reinvent it to fit real life rather than trying to translate it.
Take Lion King-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Big difference, eh?
Little Mermaid?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And it's only becoming progressively worse and it shows because in the 90s, they marketed the crap out of the toys but now, there's no difference between these lion toys and any others. You can barely even tell them apart, which ones are the Lion King ones?
Tumblr media
They can't do that now, do you see any Flounder merch anymore? Sebastian? Scuttle?
I may not care about the movie but at least Pinocchio attempted something.
Tumblr media
They didn't market those toys either, despite being closer to the...(well not "source material" but you know what I mean). But they also withheld the trailer until it was practically released already, they knew it was bad.
But I've also seen mentioned that Disney knows this and purposely hides designs until its too late to change them to avoid another Sonic the Hedgehog situation aka inflating the budget/spending more money, just pump and dump as the crypto space would say. I'd rather go back to the 90s with Homeward Bound style. They at least provided entertainment value and didn't have a cartoon counterpart to compare to.
It's called "brand recognition", Bob Iger, let me in and run your business for you, PLEASE. It'll at least be better for kids than this-

Reasons Why I Love Trench / Darling as a Pairing:
1) Ship Dynamics: Friends to (Lovers) to Enemies to (Lovers). The Berserking/Possessed character must be saved by the One Who Isn’t Afraid. The grumpy character paired with the eccentric character who makes them laugh. They are narrative foils.
2) Red vs. Blue Aesthetics: Trench embodies red through Hiss possession. Darling embodies blue through Hedron—cooler colors, namely, which I pick up from Polaris (an extension of Hedron).
3) History. The game teases their extensive friendship. Darling was Trench’s closest friend and ally.
3) To quote a popular text post: they drag the entire Bureau and Oldest House into their Category 5 relationship drama. They are arguably the Bureau’s two most important leaders. Imagine being in the vicinity when they fought.
4) Trench seems willing to do a lot for Darling. Tiger sharks? Really? Literally gifting him the highest security the Bureau has to offer like this is a scene out of Beauty and the Beast. Trench lets him get away with a lot of Questionable Decisions.
5) No one stares longingly at a film projector playing “instructional” reels of their best friend in a strictly hetero sense.
6) Whenever a collectible document refers to Trench and Darling, the writer usually lumps them together. Langston dislikes Trench for his own reasons related to the Bureau, but he doubly dislikes the energy Trench AND Darling have when they’re on the same side of an issue.
In summary, I just think they’re neat.

[person who learned the wrong lesson from a situation voice] the actual best thing about freeing myself from the gaylor mindset is moving on from the, like, cmon girl, ridiculous notion that you need to have a full conspiracy theory and charts of complicated multi layered analysis to back up your right to call your favorite singer/actor gay. like. you can just go "lol [slur of your choosing]" and move on

Robert & Nicola - a teen’s journey…
I’ve complied a video of Robert and Nicola and their journey, from when Robert was teen (2002) interspersed with Chrissie learning about them (2014) and Robert encouraging Nicola when she was in a bad way after the Graham scheme went sideways (2019).
They went from Nicola burning Robert in the worst way as a teen (learning a hard lesson) to them being, in my opinion, true best friends (along with Jimmy) even if the show didn’t promote them as such. I hope you enjoy!
