audio doesn't remotely give it justice but, ladies and gentlemen, here's earl carpenter as drunk!andre bursting on stage to announce the ballet after il muto, freezing like a deer in the headlights upon seeing the audience and pleading for the dancers to come in. once they do, while firmin is furiously waving him offstage, he of course collides with a ballerina and nearly falls face first on the ground.

KarateKels Story Masterlist
Hi everyone! I’ve decided to (finally) get my act together and make a masterlist post for all the requests/stories I’ve done so far. I’m going first by character, then adding Dark Desires October and TIGmas posts for if you’re looking for a ~vibe~. Links that have a * indicate the presence of smut, for if you just want to get to the good stuff! 😉
(I'll be going through these posts and updating them slowly when I can't bring myself to write, so if you see anything that needs fixing or you want to suggest ways to make this... less of a clusterfuck, please feel free to let me know!)

Chef’s Kiss: Part 1 | Part 2*

An Honest Man: Part 1 | Part 2* | To be continued…
(KK3 Terry x Reader) You meet Terry at a party and aren’t impressed by his smarmy exterior, making him determined to win you over. Colluding with your easily wooed coworker, he talks you into a date and slowly seduces his way past your timid, untrusting nature.

Clear as Mud: Part 1*
(KK3 Terry x Reader) You’ve tried to get Terry to open up about his time in Vietnam on more than one occasion, and while he’s been doing his best to help you understand, he ultimately decides that the best way to help you is to put you through something similar, hunting you in the middle of a forest at sunset.
Turtle Doves: Part 1 | Part 2
(KK3 Cobra Husbands - Terry/Reader/John) It’s your first Christmas spent with both Terry and John, and everyone is nervous about what to give the others.

Strike First: Part 1 | Part 2*

Prized Possession: Part 1*
(CK Terry x Reader) You accompany Terry to a charity event for the first time as a couple and he doesn’t appreciate the attention you receive from the other men in attendance. Upon returning home, he needs to make sure that you both know who you belong to.
As I Am: Part 1*
(CK Terry x Reader) You witness Terry and Daniel’s fight in Stingray’s apartment and desperately want him to lose control with you. Upon making you confess your desires, he gives you exactly what you need. Size kink.

When Terry drops by to gather information for his schemes, he decides to scoop you up and make Danny-Boy regret his mistreatment of you, giving you a dream opportunity: organizing the charity auction for Eva Garcia. The two of you develop feelings for one another as you work closely together, and as the events of the auction unfold, the tension between you reaches its boiling point.
Legacy: Part 1*
(CK Terry x Reader) Terry has fallen for the most promising student in his adult class, though she remains oblivious.

Scream for Me: Part 1 | Part 2*
(CK Terry x Reader) Part of the "Fresh Start" universe! Reader makes the mistake of telling Terry that she can't believe he was ever scary, and certainly isn't that way now. Terry decides to teach her a lesson, hunting her in their own home until she admits that he is still very much something to be feared.
Wrapped in Red: Part 1*

Disorderly Conduct: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4* | Part 5 | Part 6
A dark, tragic fic. Reader is a cop who has been working at the same precinct as Cash for awhile, and gets the vibe that something is... off. Trusting her instinct, she follows him to an abandoned building one day and catches him in the act. Unfortunately, he also catches her, and keeps her as a hostage while he tries to figure out his next move. (Takes place before events of the movie)
Person of Interest: Part 1*
You and a friend attend your precinct's Christmas party; the first time you'll be seeing your coworkers since you went undercover almost a year ago. Rather than the happy reunion with your partner and friend Cash, he seems anything but happy to see you. Locked in the basement together, you call Cash out on his BS and finally confront him about his feelings and your own.
Jan Valek (Vampires):
Heirloom: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6*
An enemies to lovers fic with Jan Valek. Reader is Jack Crow's daughter and a vamp-hunter-in-training.

Saturnalia: Part 1*
Valek catches your scent on the wind and plans to feed on you, but after a single conversation with you can’t bring himself to commit such an act. Instead, he plans to find you at your friend's Winter Solstice Masquerade to be close to you, even just for the night.
Gus Travis (Black Point):
In Deep Water: Part 1 | Part 2* | Part 3*
A dark non-con with Gus Travis. Reader is an undercover cop who has gotten in with Gus's gang to get the dirt on him and Malcolm’s crime ring. Gus gets wind of your deception and decides to punish you - for lying, for making him fall for you, for everything.
Terry McCain (Excessive Force):
Yule-Tied: Part 1* | To be continued…
You manage to get Terry to swear off work for a whole week to come with you to visit your family in New York City for the holidays.

Jack Blaylock (Ulterior Motives):
Coming soon…
The TIGverse (stories with more than one TIG character):
The NSFW Alphabet: Part 1* | Part 2*
A character study for both KK3 Terry and CK Terry. (I want to do more requests like these, so feel free to send in requests for my thoughts/opinions rather than full on stories if you want!)
A Tale of Two Terrys: Part 1* | To be continued…
(KK3 Terry x Reader x CK Terry) You and your husband (CK Terry) are somehow joined in bed by his younger self, who had been wondering how his future would turn out. Initially protective, your husband talks you into letting his younger self have his way with you before joining in himself.
Mediation: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5* | Part 6* | Part 7 | Part 8 | Part 9* | To be continued…
(Terry McCain x Reader x Cash Ewing) You are assigned as Terry McCain’s new partner after his previous partner – Cash Ewing – goes to prison for the crimes he has committed. Cash returns to Chicago years later, after his release and rehabilitation, and while he can’t be a cop anymore, he wants to make amends to those he has disappointed with his actions, most of all his former close friend Terry. Terry isn’t receptive to Cash’s attempts at reconciliation, and warns you to stay away from him, having grown very protective of his “work wife.” But you find something of a kindred spirit in Cash and want to help him get a second chance at life, deciding to do what you can to support the man and bring the two friends back together.

Totally random rant!
So I watched John Carpenters Vampires a number of times when it was on Netflix for Halloween. My biggest grievance is that it's nearly 2 hours long and spends most of the time not even showing vampires 🥴. Like you should've just titled it Hunters who hate women. It would've been more straightforward. TIG is so ridiculously underused. It's an actual crime. It'd be different if any of the 'main' characters were actually likeable. Valek and Father Adam are the only interesting/likeable characters in the whole thing.

Vampires disappoints me because of the fact that Jan Valek had the potential to be one of the most powerful, and terrifying vampire villains ever, but was overshadowed by Jack Crow. His character wasn’t as good as they portrayed him, and he’s a very mediocre hunter at best. I honestly never seen him as the “hell yeah, he’s gonna save the innocent” protagonist….but instead was very annoying and a trashy human being. The biggest crime was Jan not getting as much screen time as he should have. I only watch it because of Thomas, but it could have been written sooooo much better. I’m quite sure it would have been good if Thomas had any kind of creative control. Sigh, regardless, he did what needed to be done for Jan Valek.

More POTO Italy (Milan) bows, since it’s Monday and the show is closed until it moves to Monte Carlo in December. These are from two different performances, including the Mark Biocca u/s for Earl's Andre show and the Luca Gaudiano debut (that’s him positively BEAMING) at curtain.

TIG movie night this weekend?
@virgo-mess pointed out that Sea Wolf and High Adventure are both directed by the same person, so that's my pick for a double-feature. I haven't watched High Adventure yet, and only watched Sea Wolf once (and was like "...what?") so it'll be fun to watch something for the first time with y'all!
Tumblr media
I was thinking of starting around 4pm (PST) again since that seemed to work out for more of you, but y'all pick the day!
(Maybe Vampires can be the third movie we watch, so those of you that can't stand it can leave if you want lmao)
