Diary Entry #5
Today's Date is Sunday Oct. 15th, 2023. Current time: 12:42 a.m.
Dear Diary, and to anyone who reads this,
So, I'm back, maybe for good, maybe not.
Let's start our story with what's happened in the last 2 years...
J and I fell in love, and we've met twice in person now, even visited his country. He asked me to be his on December 1st, 2021. Our 2 year anniversary is coming up, though he did reject me in the beginning between fear of commitment and my mental instability, which in retrospect, I understand. Which I will explain now.
I've been diagnosed with Bipolar type 2, the type of Bipolar where your depressive episodes last longer than your manic episodes. My emotions fluctuate heavily and I tend to switch up daily, though I've been stuck in a depressive episode since I've returned from Europe.
Doll, Leaf, GT and I have started work as sex workers, though GT is taking a step back due to a traumatic event that I'd rather not explain, even if no one reads this.
I've made at least $150 in the last year from sex work alone, and even gained a sub, he's friendly enough but I'd rather not talk about that right now.
I've moved in with my biological father, I basically have the apartment to myself since he's never here and frequently leaves me on my lonesome. I have to learn new hobbies and activities to keep myself from losing my mind.
I've learned to play ukulele, which I'm very proud of, and I've learned to paint, and wood carve. I've discovered a passion for language I never knew I had. I've grown an interest in DnD and hope to create a group soon.
I believe I'm non-binary, I've been having these feelings for the last year and a half now, dressing and flipping between gender presentation really makes me happy, but I still don't relate with the girl identity enough to be genderfluid, though I may be overthinking it.
But enough about me, well, at least talking about random things. I'll tell you about today, if you're still listening:
Today, I chatted with J for a short time today after I woke up late, he seemed reasonably stressed since his mom tends to randomly dump her feelings in random breakdowns recently, making my boyfriend feel as though he needs to constantly do better and he has to help her, I can't tell him that he might be traumatized from always being the emotional step stool for his mom.
So, I've been holding in my emotions about everything I've been feeling lately, as to not burden him, both good and bad. I don't want to be overbearing with my love, and I don't want him to worry about my mental breakdowns over missing him so much. He was upset that I didn't suggest something I should do for him when I left, I think he was stressed about wasting time because I was busy getting ready to go carve pumpkins with my dad's girlfriend's family. I felt terrible since he cancelled his family plans for me, but I even offered to stay and he said no, I just don't know how to help him sometimes, I accidentally got really blunt with him about needing to go to therapy, I just feel like I'm supposed to be his emotional support but he doesn't tell me upfront what he needs sometimes. I get it, it's annoying if you have to do it all the time, but I'm trying my best, and still learning. I'm just scared he's gonna realize that I'm not the best possible partner and leave. Everyone who was important to me left without a word of why. I know I can be problematic sometimes but I swear with every fiber of my being that I am working to make a better man of myself. Especially to him. I even wrote a little poem explaining my feelings over my life at the moment.
Tumblr media
I know it may be a bit harsh to read but it's the truth of how my life has been so far, I recognize to others, I will be a burden. I hope to fix this, but if not, I'm not even sure what I would do with myself.
My boyfriend said he wanted to make me feel bad, to help him, I'm not sure if it's toxic or not. I feel like there's some toxic traits from both ends that need to be worked on. I need to stop changing myself for him, I've before put my whole schedule around him, defied my parents for him, nearly abandoned my friends because he didn't like them. I wanted to spend so much time with him. He makes me feel bad sometimes, that I keep him from having friends because I can be a bit jealous, but I told him that I'm not worried about it anymore, I've grown over it. I'm scared I traumatized him. I'm scared that I manipulate him. I don't want to do those things. I never want to hurt him... I'm just so stressed with the idea that I'm a terrible partner. I apologize, this was meant to be a diary entry, not a vent. But back to the entry, I went pumpkin carving and talked with my dad about stuff and it went about as well as talking to my dad usually does, he over shares, but at least I made a cute pumpkin and got s'mores. Which was nice. I'll include pics here:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So I suppose the day didn't end too bad, it just hurt that my bf left me on delivered. He may have fallen asleep. I'll talk to him in the morning but hopefully things can be talked about. Thank you for listening to my rant, whoever could get through this whole thing.
Thanks, Diary

FLUFF ALPHABET! Sam Winchester!
A/N: Here’s Sammy boy! My small adorable baby! Let me know what you guys think about this! 
-Marissa
------------------
A ctivities- What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?
Sam is a pretty laid-back man. When he sees a chance at relaxing with you, he snatches as quickly as possible. Whether it’s just walking or driving around towns, going to the local library (cause God knows the only book they have at the bunker are the Wizard of Oz books, and the men of letters’ books.), to looking up fun recipes to try with you. The man will always keep you occupied!
B eauty- What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?
Sam likes that despite you being very soft-spoken, you’re nowhere near dumb. You’re also very confident. Of course, you’ll still ask Sam what he thinks if you piece together a somewhat bold outfit. But you might as well call him Bruno Mars cause- well you know.
 I feel like if you are an artist of some sort, he might decide to pick up your art of choice as a hobby for when he has no research or hunts. Maybe if you draw, he’ll buy both of you sketchbooks and pencils. Or if you use a tablet he might buy you a better one. He’ll try doing simple drawings to start off with a tree or two. An eye here and there. He struggling and he’s probably gonna get a bit upset with himself if his skills don’t pick up like yours. But he’s trying really hard! If you like making music, he might ask you to play guitar. He might even ask you to teach him how to sing! But be patient, he can barely carry a tune but he’s so happy to learn! Might take him almost a year to get the hang of it, but once he does, he is an absolute Beast with some strings!
C omfort- How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?
Sam has anxiety himself so he knows the signs when one is coming on. He’s been around stressful things/people/events all his life. His father was abusive throughout his and Dean’s childhood. When he ran away to go to college, he had to learn to interact with new environments and people. In conclusion, the man KNOWS what anxiety is. And how to handle it. He’ll have you sit down and close your eyes. He won’t touch you just in case it makes you more nervous. He’ll breathe slowly with you, serving as a guide to get your bearings. Once you’ve slowed your breathing he knows you can’t hold anything so he gets you a glass of water with a straw and holds the glass for you. He knows you probably won’t want to eat anything so he just picks you up when you say he can, and brings you to bed, and reads you to sleep while holding you close. 
D reams- How do they picture their future with their s/o?
Sam knows for sure he wants to marry you. He also wants kids with you but the risk of being raised in the life he kept him up at night. Now don’t get him wrong, he knows that whatever happens, family will take care of it. They always do. But he’s not sure if that’s a risk worth taking. He just wants to have the apple pie life. He’d kill every monster with his bare hands just to have that with you. 
E qual- Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?
Sam is quite dominant in the relationship. He always takes care of everything for you. He doesn't buy into the stereotype that women should be doing everything for their partners. He tries to help you out with everything and he doesn't take no for an answer. You've known for a while that Sam's love language is Acts of Service. All he's done all his life is help people, so it just seeps into the relationship. Sure he believes that a relationship should be a healthy balance of 50\50, but at the same time, he can't help take over and take care of you. This man is just precious. 
F ight- Would they be easy to forgive their s/o? How are they fighting?
Depending on what the fight was about Sam would be pretty open to forgiving you pretty quickly. However sweet Sam can be, if he believes that he has even a pinky toe to stand on in the fight, he’ll stick to it. It’s only when the shouting has gotten too much for you that you walk away that he may see where you’re coming from. Give him a or two. That way you both had time to cool down. You’ll spend the rest of the day talking it through, seeing each other’s perspectives. Even if you guys can’t agree with each other, you’ll know how to better handle the situation next time. 
G ratitude- How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?
Even though he mostly does mundane things for you, you try to help out as much as he’ll let you. For example, if you noticed that he has a lot of research to do, while he’s sleeping or is on a supply run, you’ll continue his research so that he’ll have more time to relax and let loose a bit more. You think he doesn’t notice but he does, and he appreciates it. It makes him feel like he hasn’t been ‘slacking off’, or that he hasn’t wasted too much time doing other things. Sometimes you’ll even finish the research and he’ll have nothing much to do for a while. Except relaxing with you of course!
H onesty- Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?
Sam doesn’t have to hide much from you. You’re a damn good hunter. He would even go as far as to say you were better than him and Dean. He knows damn well you can take care of yourself and that you don’t like being babied often. He knows your secrets as well as you know his. It takes a big weight off his shoulders, knowing he doesn’t have to hide who he is with you. 
I nspiration- Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?
You were always an adventurous and carefree person. You always had a hard time balancing fun and work. Sometimes it got you into trouble. Sam noticed this when you two first met and as your relationship got more serious and tried to help you with the balence. By all means you aren’t magically better, but you’re learning. Sam on the other hand, had the same issue. The work and fun balance is a tricky one to master. You help Sam have more fun, like you he’s getting better at having more fun. But again it’s not going to happen overnight. Oh and you eat a salad of two once a month now!
J ealousy- Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?
On the rare occasion the Sam gets extremely jealous, it's usually when someone tries to touch. Regardless of whether you let it happen (for fun) or not, he can’t help himself. He wants you all to himself. No Sharing!!
K iss- Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?
Sam is a very good kisser. He always kisses you like he hasn’t seen you in years. Most of the time his kisses are very rough but intimate. The first kiss was after four dates. Yes that’s a long time but you wanted to make sure you did this right with Sam. Plus he reassured you that he’d wait as long as you wanted to. You were sitting next to Sam in the Library doing some light research since most of it had gotten done earlier that week. The tension had been building up all week, you were finally ready to kiss Sam. Despite this not being your first kiss, you hadn’t kissed many people so understandably, you were nervous. You reached your arm over his and gently closed his laptop and angled your body toward his. You leaned over to him slowly, creeping your hand to his shoulder and finally your lips connected. Sam’s hand softly grabbed your hand on his shoulder and you both stayed like that until you both needed air. That was one of, if not, the most intimate moment you’ve had with Sam so far.
L ove Confession- How would they confess to their s/o?
Sam would be a bundle of nerves when he tries to confess. He’s tried to do it at least three times but each time he either got too nervous or something would interrupt him. Eventually settled for being simple, yet intimate. He had invited you to come to the library with him to sit and read for a while. It was about an hour and a half of you both being immersed in your own books that he told you he was going to the coffee shop in the bookstore to get a coffee. He got you your favorite drink. He had the barista give him a sharpie before they made your drink, then he wrote his message to you and bought you the drink when the order was done. You could see Sam was shaking and fidgeting but you couldn’t tell why.You figured you’d let him tell you when he’s ready. If only you know. You were only a few sips into your drink when you noticed some writing on the cup. Curious, you read the message which read; 
(Y/n), I have loved you from the best of times to the worst. Would you do the honor of going on a date with me?
-Sam
You sat up, a bit stunned. You looked at Sam to see him smiling shyly at you. You couldn’t do much but giggle and nod at the giant softie. 
M arriage- Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would the marriage be like?
Marriage is something Sam and you have talked a lot about it. You two know you definitely want to get married but the question was when. You want to do it sooner rather than later. While Sam agrees, he also feels like that it should be a sign of both of you leaving life for good. Sam is a very nostalgic person, which means he’ll most likely recreate him asking you out and your first date. At the end of the night he’d get down on one knee and before he gets to say one word you burst into tears. When he finishes his speech, you of course say yes and the night continues...elsewhere. 
N icknames- What do they call their s/o?
Sugar is used more often than not. Baby and babygirl are pretty prevalent. Honey Bunch is used less but when he does call you that usually puppy dog eyes are shortly behind. 
O n Cloud Nine- What are they like when they are in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?
When Sam is in love it’s less obvious to everyone, but if they know Sam, they’ll notice the little things. Things like Sam now has permanent smile lines and his shoulders don’t hold so much tension anymore. If you didn’t come on a hunt with him and Dean he always has Dean stop off to get a bouquet of flowers. Of course he gets shit from Dean but he still does it everytime cause he is a good big brother.
P DA- Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?
While Sam will let anyone know that you’re together (if need be), he’s pretty subtle about it. There is the subtle hand on your thigh or around your waist. Maybe a little quick forehead kiss but other than that unless they knew you, someone wouldn’t be able to guess you two are together. 
Q uirk- Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship.
Sam has this really deep, rich, raspy type of voice. That makes him the BEST narrator ever! He often reads you to sleep when you two spend a lazy night in or if you have a nightmare. He’s there with a book you’ve been reading and he reads you a chapter or two before you’re out like a light. 
R omance- How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?
Sam is the KING of romance. When he plans something for you, he goes all out! When it comes to making you happy, he’ll do whatever it takes. There are almost no limits to his love. He lives by the term “Happy Wife, Happy Life.”. Sam is pretty nostalgic so he’ll be cliche, but he’ll be creative and add his own twist to it! So you could say he’s pretty creative. 
S upport- Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?
Sam loves learning about your goals and helping you achieve them. If you have 5 different goals, he's all there for you, helping you learn ways to achieve them quicker. If you want to. If you feel like those goals are impossible to reach, he’s there to help you see nothing’s impossible.
T hrill- Do they need to try out new things to spice up your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?
While Sam likes to have a solid routine, he tries to keep things *spicy* when it comes to your relationship. Whether it's something mundane or outrageous, you and Sam try your best to keep things fun for the both of you. 
U nderstanding- How good do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?
You and Sam know each other so well it's gotten to the point where if you or him need something, you know what’s needed and how much before the other even opened their mouth. When this happens, Dean just kinda stares at the both of you with a “what the actual fuck?’ look. 
Sam: *sees you walking into the kitchen* Hey babe we-
Y/N: We need to get some milk today. You wanna leave at 11?
Sam: *goes back to drinking his coffee* Yep.
Dean: *freaking the fuck out*
V alue- How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?
Sam knew from the first date that his life would be in your hands. He trusts you with everything he has. What’s your relationship worth to him? More than any diamonds, jewels, or power. Nothing can ever be worth more than you. 
W ild Card-  A random Fluff Headcanon.
Sam took you to an event at a bar one night for a date. The theme that night was ‘50’s and 60’s dance night!’ He bought you a dress that would be worn in that era and he wore his brand new tux he bought, just for tonight. Just for you. Your feet were screaming in your heels but you and Sam were having too much fun to leave the dance floor. When you guys got home that night Sam gave you the BEST foot rub ever. 
X OXO- Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?
In private, Sam will smother you with kisses and cuddles. The man can almost never let you go. The poor touch starved baby.
Y earning- How will they cope when they’re missing their partner?
Sam likes to log in to your Spotify, he knows most likely wherever you are, you’re listening to your music. He likes to listen to your playlists with you. It makes him feel closer to you. 
(He’ll never admit it but you have better taste in music than him.) 
Z eal- Are they willing to go to great lenghts for the relationship? If so, what kind of?
It’ll be a close call but if he had to choose to save Dean or you, he’d choose you. It’d break him for a while, but he knows his brother wants him to have the apple pie life with you. And in the end, he’d always do it. No matter how hard it’d be for him and you every time, he wouldn’t change a thing. 
----------------
A/N: Thank you guys for reading! I hope you enjoyed it. Requests are always open!
Spread Love!
-Marissa

Obsessive Ledger!joker x reader
I’ve been spoiling you all recently with all this Ledger!Joker, so you’re welcome 😎 (but also so sorry because I did go on a hiatus without saying anything for half a year 😬). Let me know in the asks if you want something in particular, I love writing for J so much! I have a few already that I am working on as we speak, so stay tuned for those 💜
Below are headcannons for a more yandere and darker joker than I usually write 👻 nothing abusive here because J is still very much my comfort character, but it definitely includes over-possessive, protective and stalker themes, as well as encouraging reader to join in on his murderous chaos
Warnings: morally ambiguous reader, joining joker on his “fun” i.e. mentions of torturing others, blood, weapons, severed body parts as gifts, implied seggsy time
Tumblr media
· Before adoration, fondness or love, the first feelings Joker had for you was pure obsession. Obsession with what you thought and felt, what you liked to do and why you liked to do them. Obsession with your safety and the need to protect you, which led to jealousy and possessiveness very often. It was primal, and longing, and left him thirsting after your presence like a greedy, hungry wolf. He wanted you- needed you- and he was going to get you
·In spite of a period of flirting, suggestive jokes and hinting touches, Joker made it clear pretty quickly what his feelings were for you. Because of his lifestyle death is like a waiting shadow, and wasting time on what he wants is just not his style  
· Quite soon into the beginning of your more romantic relationship, you move into his hideout for the sake of your safety, which calmed J down with some of his possessiveness and paranoid thoughts. He knew his home was the safest place in Gotham, excluding Bruce Wayne’s cave, and with you in it that meant you were safe too.
·When he’s gone, he’ll leave a huge shotgun behind for you to use in case of emergency, as well as Chechen’s Rottweilers. You’ll find some stray knives and pointy objects hidden in your coats too, “just in case”, but its more heartwarming to you than annoying
· He loves to lay on you at night, whether it be right on your chest to hear your heartbeat, or on your belly where he can feel your soft skin pressed against his scared cheeks. Not only is it pleasant and lets his touched-starved soul get some attention, but it also makes him hyper aware of every shift or move your body does while asleep. It also prevents you from sneaking out of the bed to run away, which is one of his more paranoid thoughts. Don’t try to move away or push him off, he will smack your hand back and snuggle in deeper, wrapping his arms around you like a snake
· He doesn’t care what insecurities you have regarding your appearance; he admires every single piece of you and will cuddle with whatever he wants, so push your anxieties aside because Joker hungers for all of you
· His gifts can sometimes be very macabre. Generally, he loves to spoil you with an array of things, such as new clothes or lingerie, plush toys of your favorite animals, snacks you said you’ve wanted to try, or even just random knick-knacks he stole from his victim’s homes. However, if he’s feeling adventurous or extra flirty that day, he will bring you certain body parts to symbolize his feelings for you.
· You’ve definitely found your fair share of human hearts in your fridge, because he adores how your heart races when your scared. You’ve found a pair of lungs stuffed in there too, because the little gasps you make when frightened or anticipating his touch are delicious to him. You went to get milk once and right behind the carton was a tongue, symbolizing how much he relishes your little talks and midnight conversations
· Once, he brought over a whole corpse, the body decomposing and gnarled, skin ripped to shreds and a face pummeled so brutally it had concaved. “Don’t need to worry about them any more doll,” he giggled, spitting on the body with a fervor that thrilled you. It took a few minutes of intense staring- why did they look familiar?-  but then it clicked in your mind; it was the very person you had fumed and vented to Joker about last night, right before he had spontaneously left
· “J,” you began, eyes nearly popping out of your head. “Did you kill him... for me?”
· “ ‘Course I did, sweetheart.” He rolled his eyes like it was the most obvious thing in the world. “You know I’d, uh, kill anyone for you. Nasty fucks like them especially-ah.”
· If you have to leave for longer periods of time, whether that be for school or work, Joker will always have a few of his men stalking you from a distance, making sure you’re safe and that no one dangerous is within a 1 mile radius of you. They also have explicit instructions to take photos and send them to J, because he likes looking at your oblivious little face.
· He’d do it himself if he has the time, which he sometimes does, but he too is quite busy with his own things (when anarchy calls, as they say), so hiring lookouts is the next best thing. If he could, he’d have you right by his side at all times… how pretty you’d look in a soft purple leash... but that’s just daydream fuel for now
· Speaking of photos, Joker knows his ways around a camera. He makes... lovely home videos that he sends to news channels in his free time (rip fake batman) and he continues to practice at his craft from time to time. He even won a deepweb award for best snuff film of the year, which boosted his ego to ungodly heights. He’s absolutely delighted about it and hints that you should watch it on one of your movie nights, but he does warn it’s not for the faint of heart
· Taking videos and photos are one of his favorite hobbies, and if you’re down to clown… he’d certainly bring it in the bedroom
· Speaking of his more thrilling hobbies, Joker will constantly suggest you join him on his escapades or help out behind the scenes, especially if he picks up on any sort of interest from you concerning his ‘job’. Joker is an observant man, and he reads you like a book. He knows you likely have some dark, sinister thoughts running around in your head - you must, if you’re with him- so he does everything he can to encourage you to let them out. Joker will never judge this side of you, no matter how grim. He’ll try and harness it, bring it to light. He hates the thought of you shying away from your true self, embarrassed of your darker nature, but what he hates even more is you thinking he’ll be disgusted with you or disappointed. How can you think that?
· “No no no, bunny, not me. You’re my muse, so give me some inspiration hmm? Tell daddy exactly what’s going on in that mind of yours...”
·  If you do show interest in the darker side of his job, he’d smile so big that his scars take up his whole face. He’d teach you everything; how to fire a gun, how to stab someone, how to hide a body and how to torture one. He’ll spread out all his weapons on the floor and let you choose which one calls to you, like a deranged ceremony, informing you on the pros and cons of each one. He’ll even invite you into the warehouses he designated just for torture, which are just as gruesome and sinful and they sound
· J let’s you watch as he hurts his victims, whom are purposefully rapists and killers to make you feel less guilty, and let’s you join in on the fun whenever you gain the courage. He even went as far as to buy a whole torture set off the black market, from scalpel to needles, just to give you options. Joker loves to see how creative you can get, and it’s one of the few times he lets you take complete control
· “The floor is yours, bunny. Impress me.”
· He is down for pretty much anything, and that mindset is not exclusive just to the bedroom
·Any couple activity you fear might be too far or creepy for other people… is right around J’s alley. Weird kinks or foreplay games you want to try? No problem. Making love in abandoned houses or cemeteries? Now that’s his type of romance. You want to carry a small vial of his blood around your neck? He is all game, but only if he gets one of you as well. Matching knives? He’s blushing. Satanic blood ritual from a sketchy website that’s supposed to bond your souls for eternity? Perfect, his weekend plans were centered around you anyways
· Now…If he feels that you’re not giving him enough attention or start to push him away, he will resort to crazier means to obtain your love back. He’ll set off random bugs, rats or even henchmen into your home to scare you, gleefully waiting to hear you cry out his name in fear. Like a small, dependent little kitten, mewling for their protector. He’d come in, guns ablaze, looking for whatever scared his darling angel, killing them on sight. You’d run into his arms, tears streaming down your face as you cling to Joker like your life depended on it- just how he liked it. He’d coo mockingly and pull you closer, rubbing your back as he unashamedly basked in your physical touch.
· In general however, your soft caresses, kisses and reassuring words are enough to keep him very pleased. He knows you adore him and are head over heels obsessed just like he is, and that truly does put a smile on his face.

Of Being Ladybug 9
Previous          Master List
The cons of not believing
(- - )
Tim looked at his phone in surprise. He’d been in Paris for only a week to help train the Miracles, and already Bruce was calling him? Was hell freezing over? Did someone die?!
“B?” Tim whispers, not wanting to wake up Stephanie. There is silence on the other line. Tim frowns and moves to the other room so he can turn on the video.
“Bruce?” he asks again, now looking at the brooding older man. He looked like Joker just shat in his coffee.
“Tim… I… when you were younger… how… what could I have done to support you more?” Bruce finally bit out. His pauses long and his eyes drawn together. Bruce was looking to the side and was speaking quietly. Tim recognized the room as Steph’s before she moved into his room. A new sibling? AH! Bruce had been petitioning to have the previous Ladybug brought under his custody. He’d been blocked and turned away every time. It seemed Diana was extremely excited to be teaching a new Ladybug, had in fact claimed her as her sister. Bruce had been told that he had enough children and that he didn’t need to “corrupt” another one.
“Is the new sister having a hard time adjusting? Shouldn’t you be asking Dick?” Tim asked, relieved no one died…again.
“… Marinette is fourteen and about to graduate high school this Christmas. She was tossed to the side by her family for some unknown reason. She was torn from her friends and responsibilities. Since receiving the Miraculous at thirteen, she has hardly had a minute to breath, let alone figure herself out. And when, by all rights, she should have had the time, Diana takes her, shaves all her hair off and tells her “[W]ith every hair that falls, a part of Marinette must die. As your new hair grows, Maria will grow as well.” She wasn’t allowed to sew or draw or bake or cook. She wasn’t allowed to do anything that had any connection to her previous life,” Bruce’s hands and jaw were clenched.
Tim frowned again. What?!
“Marinette trained from dawn to dusk, but was never allowed out of the house, nor to shadow her on missions. She was to study, to train, and to sit quietly and behave herself.”
“You’re kidding?! No wonder her friends here are so worried! They’ve been trying to contact her!” Tim growled. He felt ready to go hunt an Amazonian.
“What would you suggest I do? She thinks further ahead than anyone I know, has strategies and back-up strategies and back-ups for the back-ups. She has social anxiety, with a history of being bullied. She skipped grades and then stopped for some reason. She had the same teacher for years, despite having been bullied by classmates. I just… I need to hear from someone who is closer to her age and had similar problems. What can I do?” Bruce wiped his hand down his face. He looked so tired.
Tim sighed and thought back to when he was fourteen. He’d been Robin for three years by then already. What could he have used? More time together? More friends? More sleep? Did any of this help his new sister?
Tim shook his head, “I don’t know, B. I was more interested in being Robin than being a teenager. Time with you was always good. Sibling time with as well. Maybe call Dick. He’s always been the best adjusted out of all of us.”
Bruce just nodded, gave his half smile and was about to sign off when a light went off over his head.
“Tim, one last thing. Please look into the school and classmates for me. Something tells me Marinette was being held back against her will.”
Tim frowned more. He nodded before signing off and sending a message to the Miracle Team that Marinette would be able to speak in the next week and would video chat with them soon. He was about to text Jason when Stephanie called for him. He put his phone down and walked back to bed.
( # , # )
Richard Grayson was used to getting calls at weird times. But two in the morning and from Bruce’s civilian phone? He sent a quick prayer up that no one died and answered.
“What’s up, B? Miss me already?” He asked cheerfully.
Bruce looked tiredly at the camera, “Dick. I need some advice to help your newest sister adjust.”
Dick’s eyes widened. Bruce finally got custody! That’s good. But he looked so exhausted. He wondered what happened.
“Adjust to what, specifically? The fighting? School? Is she moody? What’s going on?” Dick asked. When did he become the one to give PARENTING advice to his father?
As Bruce talked about what he’d learned from Marinette’s journal, Dick became more and more angry. He was a guy, but even her knew that you never cut a girl’s hair without permission!
“Sounds to me like she just needs to believe that this is real and permanent. Just be there when you can. Talk to her about decisions and let her work the way she is used to on missions. Thing’s will fall into place after that” Dick said pragmatically. There really wasn’t much to do but be there. He wished he could be there to help in person, but India had recently fallen prey to the mouse Miraculous. He and Starfire were there to capture the thief that was misusing the Miraculous.
Bruce sighed and nodded, before hanging up. Poor Bruce. Dick would do his best to get done here and head home. He was excited to meet his new sister! He sent a message to Jason and Tim, warning them of the new sister and to be nice if they caught her on the video chats.
< ( ^ ^ ) >
Bruce sighed, exhausted. He hadn’t meant to call the boys yet, but this was not something he wanted to go in blind to. Diana had made a lot of mistakes with Marinette, and she deserved better than that. Bruce had only glanced through the journal to get some insight, but it seemed Marinette suffered from Imposter Syndrome, social anxiety, abandonment issues… And Diana, who only exasperated the problems. Keeping her locked away, training her to exhaustion, taking her hobbies and passions, killing any and all aspects of her personality. Bruce had thought Marinette was just shy. This though. He frowned. Had he known about this he would have treated Marinette very differently. Maybe an hour of sleep would help him clear his head. He leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes.
< ( >< ) >
Alfred stared blankly at the ceiling. Something wasn’t adding up. For all that her parents were busy people, they seemed to love their daughter a great deal. He couldn’t imagine they had just randomly abandoned her for being a hero. Not when they hosted Chat Noir for dinner one night. Not when they seemed so proud of their daughter with every award she received. Something was off. Alfred wasn’t a detective, but he would find out what had truly happened if it killed him.
{ J }
Jason stared at his phone, re-reading the message from Dick. A new sister, huh?
‘Che, poor kid. Dealing with B all on her own. I’ll have to make this quick,’ he thought as he lifted the binoculars.
He was currently in Germany, following a suspected Miraculous user. The information about the Horse Miraculous stated that they could open portals anywhere. And recently a string of missing women from Cologne was becoming very concerning. Especially when companions and eyewitnesses all claim the same thing: a glowing yellow circle opening in the air and the woman vanishing through it. Jason watched silently as Cass walked down the street below. The tracker and her own training would hopefully keep her alive long enough for Jason to find her and the rest of the women. Nothing below. Maybe check the other side? Just as he was getting up, he felt a fist to his head. And then black.
*!!*
Luka looked at his phone. Marinette was finally in contact again? The day Black Canary had landed, they had bothered her from dawn to dusk to talk to their old leader, but were stonewalled, as her new guardian didn’t think it was a good idea to be constantly reminded of her failure. The team had shouted that it wasn’t Marinette’s failure alone, but the whole teams. And more over, the League’s, as they never took their calls for help seriously. Canary was pretty quickly chased away by them, and another trainer was sent. Green Lantern 1 and 2 were a great help for Kaefer, but the rest of the team didn’t see any real benefit from them. And they didn’t care in the least about Marinette. They didn’t last very long either. It went on like this for a year. Trainers came and went, all of them parroting the same thing. Luka had a new reputation now, as the trainer wrecker, on the team. And as a civilian? He became completely cold and closed off. Only his teammates saw any warmth from him. But even Juleka was being steadily pushed to arms length. Paris did this to Marinette. And none of them, not her friends or her family, even cared.
<(**)>
When Marinette woke up the next morning, she knew immediately that she wasn’t alone. Looking out through blurry eyes, she saw the figure of a man standing by her window. He was turned away, looking outside with the sun streaming in. She tried to remember how she got to her room.
A knock at her door had her quickly closing her eyes and pretending to be asleep. Bruce went to the door.
“Master Bruce. I thought you and Miss Marinette might enjoy some breakfast.”
“Thank you, Alfred. Will you be joining us for breakfast?”
“I’m afraid I have an errand to run in town this morning. But I will be sure to return for lunch. Do try not to burn the kitchen down.”
“You can sit up now, Marinette. I heard the change in your breathing earlier.”
Marinette cracked an eye open. Why? She sat up on her bed and looked up at her current guardian.
“Do you mind if I sit here?” Bruce gestured at the end of the bed, carrying a large tray filled with waffles, fruits, yogurt and coffee. Marinette shook her head mutely.
After Bruce set the tray on the middle of the bed, he sat down and looked her in they eye.
“Marinette, what I said last night still stands. I want you to feel at home here. This isn’t temporary. Two of the oldest boys are already calling you their newest sister. Marinette, most of my children are adopted. In fact, only one of my kids is related to me by blood. I wanted to bring you here from the beginning, but lost the custody battle to… Anyways, you’re here now. I want you to feel at home and remember yourself. To have a safe place to just be.”
Marinette felt her eyes watering again. Was this… was this real? But her parents had promised to always be there too, hadn’t they? Marinette nodded. Eventually everything would come to an end. But for now, for just this moment, she would allow herself to be comfortable.
“Okay? Okay. So, I wanted to talk to you about school and extra curriculars. Your work schedule… “ Bruce pulled a notebook out of his breast pocket. Her eyes widened. He… He wanted HER opinion?
“No school” her voice was barely above a whisper, her hands clenched in the blankets and her head bowed. She missed his nod of understanding.
“No school. Just distance education with tests and exams taken in the principle’s office. But I am more interested in what you might be interested in taking in University. Are there any particular courses that interest you? Is there a career path you’d like to follow? We will have to start the applications right away if you want to get in for the Spring term.  And what about extra curriculars? Dance? Ice dancing? Gymnastics? Parkour? Sewing? Singing? Music? Most of the kids all learned piano from me at some point…” He was looking in his notebook and tapping his pen against his pants.
Wah…? Marinette felt her jaw drop.
“Am I overwhelming you? It’s okay to take a few days to think things over and let me know…” Bruce looked at her face, jaw slack and eyes wide. Marinette just nodded.
“Breakfast?”

Nightingale Part Five: Opening Up
(The Meeting Between A Huntsman And A Lonesome Kitten One Year Ago)
Jonathan West x Katrina Evans
Katrina watched as Jonathan gently applied some gel to her wrist before wrapping a new bandage around them. “They should be fine in a couple days”. Jonathan told her as he put everything back into his first aid kit. “Okay thank you”. Katrina replied before setting her hands down on her lap. 
She had woken up a little while ago with her head still rested on Jonathan’s thigh. Now that she was more awake she’d gotten flustered and attempted to apologies. Jonathan had of course told her it was fine and that she had been exhausted. After that he had suggested it would probably be a good idea to look over her wrist. They were certainly better than they had been the night before that was for sure. With her wrist redone Jonathan returned the first aid kit to the bathroom. 
“I was thinking of starting dinner, anything you have a taste for”. Jonathan asked when he made his way back to the living room. Katrina just shrugged she didn’t want to ask for anything that would take long to make or he might not have ingredients for. She was already intruding in his home she didn’t want to make things any harder for him. “Anything is fine”. She finally said. Jonathan thought for a moment trying to think of something to make. “How does soup sound I have enough to make a few kinds if you want to help me choose which”. He suggested. 
Katrina found herself nodding as she trailed behind him to the kitchen. Jonathan looked over what he had while listing which kinds of soup he could whip up. After a few minutes they both agreed on having beef stew. While Jonathan started dinner Katrina returned to the living room and burrowed herself back into the fluffy white blanket she was slowly beginning to call hers. She hesitated for a moment before picking up the remote wondering if Jonathan would be mad at her for changing the channel. He was so nice she didn’t want him to be upset with her. 
“J-Jonathan”. She decided to call for him just a little louder than she usually spoke. “Yeah”. He called back barely a second later. “Do you mind if I change the channel”? She asked ready to put the remote down if he said yes. “No you can find something else that movie was boring me anyway”. He replied. Katrina didn’t know why the answer made her lip twitch upward but she started flipping though the channels. She caught glimpses of old sitcoms, action movies, sport games and cartoons. Nothing she had an interest for at the moment. 
What she did stop on if only briefly was a channel showing an orchestra production. They had just began focusing on the violinist when she started watching it. She was so caught up in watching and listening to the music she didn’t notice when Jonathan walked back into the music. “Hm Beethoven”? He suddenly asked which startled her slightly. “Mozart”. She shyly answered. 
“You like classical music”? Jonathan asked her curiously. “A bit, I play the violin”. She told him. For a moment she wondered where her violin was, was it still in the man’s car. She mentally shook her head from the thought not wanting to think about the man or the dark look on his face. “Do you like it”? Katrina decided to ask to get her mind away from her straying thoughts. Jonathan simply shrugged. “Never really had a favorite kind of music but classical is definitely nice to listen to”. He told her. 
“Yeah it is”. Katrina replied with a slight nod. “So have you ever played anywhere”? Jonathan asked. He wasn’t really into music but if it was a topic she liked it might help to get her to open up. “Mostly school recitals no where exciting”. She replied modestly. “But you’ve performed for audiences that has to be nerve wrecking”. He stated. Katrina found herself nodding quickly at that, getting on stage had always been terrifying and she always tried to make herself as small as possible and just focus on the music. 
“I think I almost fainted a few times”. She told him causing Jonathan to chuckle. “I bet I don’t think I could perform in front of anyone let alone a whole crowd of strangers, gotta be pretty brave to be scared and still do it”. He told her. Katrina felt a slight flutter in her chest at being told she was being brave for doing something so simple. “Th-Thank you”. She remarked not taking her eyes off her lap. Jonathan just gave her a small smile before going back to the kitchen to check on the soup. 
Katrina continued to watch the orchestra performances until it ended ten minutes later. Once it was over she began flipping though channels again until she stopped on a kids movies that she’d always enjoyed. A few minutes later Jonathan came back with two bowls of stew sat one in front of her. “Thank you”. She told him as she picked up the spoon. “Your welcome”. He replied as he sat down next to her. Neither made a comment that he was sitting a tad closer than he had before. 
“Oh I remember watching this when I was younger”. Jonathan stated as he recognized the movie on the TV. “Yeah I’ve always liked it”. Katrina said before eating some of her soup. “Me too I use to watch it whenever my da-”. Jonathan cut himself when he realized what he was about to say. It was a movie he’d always watched with his mother when his dad wasn’t home. Katrina looked at him curiously furrowed her brows in what almost looked like concern. 
“Ar-Are you okay”. She timidly asked. “Yeah fine just old memories is all”. He replied hoping she wouldn’t pry and much to his relief she didn’t. Katrina didn’t pry knowing whatever he’d stopped himself from saying he didn’t want to say and she understood wanting to keep things to herself. Even if it hurt sometimes to keep everything bottled up. “What’s your favorite part”? She asked referencing the movie in hopes of getting his mind off of any unwanted thoughts. 
Jonathan felt himself smile as he told her which part of the movie was his favorite and why which she did in return. By the time the movie had finished Jonathan had eaten two bowls of soup and Katrina had finished one and half of a second. Jonathan found himself pleased that she’d eaten so much since the memory of how light she was never seemed to leave his thoughts. 
“How long have you played the violin”? Jonathan asked when he returned from putting the bowls in the sink. “Um since I was about five-six I can’t remember exactly”. Katrina answered thinking back to the first time she’d picked up the instrument. “What about you when did you start doing photography”? She asked in return. “Probably about seventeen”. He said remembering how he’d gotten into the hobby turned career but didn’t feel like going into details. 
“Must really enjoy it to decide to make it your whole career I don’t know if I could perform for a living I’d be so afraid of passing out the whole time”. Katrina stated. “I’m sure you’d do wonderfully”. Jonathan replied without much thought making the girl flustered. They spent hours just talking and asking questions about each other never revealing too much about themselves or their pass but enough to feel like they knew each other. 
This was more than likely the most the two had talked to anyone combined. Though they still stumbled over their words or cut themselves off when they almost said something they didn’t want to think of. But still they found the time almost enjoyable. They didn’t stop until they both found themselves tired rather late into the night. “I could sleep on the couch I don’t want to keep taking your bed”. Katrina said rubbing her eyes. “No I’m fine you need it more than me while your sick”. Jonathan replied. 
“I’m not too sick right now I’ll be fine”. Katrina argued. Jonathan huffed trying to think about how to get the shy but obviously stubborn girl to take his bed. “How about we just share”. He said a little uncertain if she’d agree. “Share”? Katrina asked. “Yeah I mean the beds pretty big and we could put some pillows between us”. He explained not sure she’d go with the idea. Katrina thought about it for a moment biting her lip at the thought of Jonathan sharing a bed with her. 
“Well I mean if there’s pillows between as that should be okay and it means neither of us have to sleep on the couch”. Katrina said. “You sure”? Jonathan asked not wanting to make her uncomfortable or like she doesn’t have a choice in the matter. Katrina nodded. “Yeah and I mean it might be good to have you close by if I start feeling sick again”. Or have another nightmare but she didn’t say that. Jonathan nodded before they went back to his room. He took out more pillows and blankets from his closet. 
Once they’d set up a little barrier of pillows in the middle Jonathan grabbed some clothes for him to change into before heading to the bathroom. Katrina got into bed a little nervous but certain Jonathan wouldn’t try anything. She was barely holding her eyes open when Jonathan returned and got into bed on the other side of the pillows. “Goodnight Katrina”. He said as he got in. “Night Jonathan”. She replied with a yawn before drifting off into a deep slumber.

Yayness! If it's not too much to ask, can I request a legolas x half-elf!reader? Since reader is half-elf, she looks human and is mortal.
Here you go, lovely! I hope you enjoy this ❤️
“Ada!!” Your children squealed, jumping out of the bed when they heard their father’s boots on the wooden floor. Shaking your head with a grin, you too got off the edge of their bed, closing the storybook you had in your hands.  “Hello my beauties,” Legolas cooed, picking up both of your daughters, a wide grin on his face as he pecked both of their cheeks.
“Girls, you know it’s time for bed,” You reminded them, fully knowing they wouldn’t go to bed until their father wore them out.
The two girls displayed the puppy dog eyes they inherited from their father, silently begging you to let them stay awake with their father. Legolas chuckled, “How about, I tell you girls a story while your Naneth gets ready for bed hm?” He reasoned, grinning when they both nodded eagerly, “Go to bed and I’ll be in there in just a little while then.” Legolas instructed, letting the two girls out of his arms as they ran to the bedroom.
“That was smooth,” You mumbled, walking into his arms and greeting him with a kiss. “Very,” He agreed as he sniffed your hair, smiling at the clasp holding your marriage braid. “I have children to appease, and you, my dear,–” He paused, pressing another kiss to your lips, “–Need to go relax, you look exhausted,” Legolas observed a frown on his face from seeing the light shining on your dark circles. Taking care of two young children and trying to make jewelry to sell as a hobby in the market, and wanting to take care of Legolas, it takes its toll after awhile.
Sighing you nodded, bumping your forehead against his, “I’ll go get ready for bed, I want to wait for you though, I miss falling asleep at the same time you do,” You mumbled as he nodded in response, giving you a kiss on the nose before walking down the hall to your daughter’s awaiting bedroom.
“What story are you going to tell, Ada?” Your youngest daughter questioned, a twinkle in her eye as the older girl watched quietly, her arms wrapped around her stitched bunny.
“I’m going to tell you, the story of how I met your mother,” He began smiling as the memory began to play in his mind.
The market of Dale was bustling with activity, for all goods could be found here in this vast city. After the Battle of The Five Armies was finished, the people of Esgaroth set out to make a new home, in Dale. It took years, but over the course of sixty years, the city was now back to its former glory before Smaug’s destruction.
Legolas smiled softly as he walked through the crowd, having no rush in mind as he examined each and every stall of goods before him. Jewelry, spices, fabrics, pottery, gems, everything you could think to buy, you could.
“Sir, would you like to try our freshly baked bread? Spices directly from Hobbiton!” A woman cheered out to him, making him tilt his head, “I would love some,” He nodded with a smile, reaching into his pocket to grab out his money pouch, planting two silver coins in the woman’s hand. Not noticing her nod her head slightly to a woman behind him.
“Here you go, dear,” The woman said with a grin, handing him a loaf of the seasoned bread. “Thank you,” Legolas bowed his head slightly as he kept walking, accidentally bumping into a woman in front of him.
The woman quickly slid her hand into his pocket, grabbing his money pouch. “Oh, I am so sorry!” She gasped, an apologetic smile on her face, as she quickly pulled away, taking the money pouch in her hand, slyly tucking it into her skirt before he could notice. “My apologies, I wasn’t paying attention,” Legolas apologized, but before he could say anything else, she was gone in the crowd again.
You watched the scene from your jewelry booth, glaring at the woman as she walked away. No one seemed to notice what just happened, but you did. Maybe, because of your half-elven heritage, you could see things better than them, you could see the smallest movement without much effort. What shocked you, was that the elven man didn’t seem to notice his money pouch was gone.
Sighing you stood up from your stool, deciding to do something about it. Yes, times could get hard, but you knew those women. They don’t steal out of necessity, they steal simply because they can. The two would steal even from a child if it meant that they would gain something out of it.
“Ana, could you watch my booth?” You asked your dear hobbit friend, who nodded with a grin, “Of course, (y/n)!” She gave you a thumbs up as you nodded, leaving the booth and walking in the direction of the woman who pickpocketed the tall elven man.
Walking through the market your eyes narrowed in on the woman, now pickpocketing a slightly intoxicated man. Rolling your eyes at her antics you made your move.
Walking past the two as she kept conversation with the drunk man who somehow noticed she took his money, you slyly reached your hand into her pocket, pretending to get bumped into by the large man carrying ale barrels. Pulling the money pouch into your own pocket, you mumbled an apology before continuing on your way.
You lifted up your head, your slightly taller height giving you an advantage as you searched through the crowd. “A-hah!” You thought as you saw him walk into the local inn.
“One room for the night please,” Legolas told the Innkeeper who nodded and waited for Legolas to pull out the coins.
Legolas reached into his pocket, only to find nothing. Eyes widening, he kept searching for the pouch that should have been in his pocket. “Sir, if you don’t have any coin, I cannot give you a room,” The Innkeeper reminded, not liking his time wasted.
“J-just a moment, it must be here somewhere,” Legolas stammered with an embarrassed smile, walking to the side so the Innkeeper could help another group that came in behind him.
“Sir?” You called out to the blond elf, watching as his head snapped up, “I think you lost this,” You held out the money pouch, watching as his eyes narrowed, slowly taking it from you. “Where?” He questioned, knowing it was unlikely to have fallen out of his pocket.
“For an elf, you don’t really watch around you much, do you?” You questioned him with a light laugh, “The woman who sold you bread, it was a con to see where you had your money pouch, then her friend pickpocketed you.” You explained remembering the way she bumped into him.
“The woman who ran into me,” He recalled causing you to nod, “How did you see all of that?” He questioned again, not seeing any elven features about you. “Half-Elf,” You explained, causing him to nod.
“Well… As thanks for returning it to me, can I buy you a pint?” He questioned, nodding to the Inn’s dining room.
“I don’t see why not,” You smiled as he returned you with a smile as well, walking to the counter, now able to rent the room for the night and gain entry to the dining room.
“-And that is how I met your mother, she saved me from not having a single silver coin to my name,” Legolas finished as he looked at his two daughters, seeing the youngest one fast asleep and the other barely hanging on to consciousness.
Smiling, Legolas leaned down and pressed a kiss to her forehead before moving to the older one, “Goodnight my starlight,” He cooed, kissing her forehead before leaving the room, blowing out the candle that dimly lit the room.
Walking across the hall, Legolas smiled when he saw that the candle was still lit in your shared bedroom. Opening the door quietly, Legolas silently shut it as you laid in bed, a book opened as you lay on your side. Smiling at your figure, Legolas slipped off his boots and his tunic. Pulling off his work pants and undershirt, Legolas tugged on a simple linen sleep pant.
“That was quick,” You broke the silence, finishing the page you were working on, putting the bookmark on the new page. Chuckling softly, Legolas slid into bed behind you, pulling you to his chest. “Well, I was in a hurry to get to my neglected wife,” He cooed, pressing a kiss to your shoulder.
Laughing you turned to face him, a grin on your face. “Well, then I thank you oh so gracious husband for returning to me.”
Legolas chuckled at your sleepy attempt of sarcastic humor and kissed you softly. Pulling away you rested your head on his chest. “What story did you tell them anyway?”
“The story of how we met,” Legolas replied, twirling one of your hairs in his hand. You hummed in response, a smile on your face as you remembered the night that the two of you sat in the inn’s dining room, drinking and sharing stories, learning about each other.
Picking up his wedding braid off his shoulder, you pressed a kiss to the moonstone clasp holding his braid in place. “I’m glad you got pickpocketed that day,” you mused, knowing that if he didn’t, you two probably wouldn’t have ever met. Humming in agreement, Legolas rested his head against yours.
“I’d trade every coin I would ever come across in my entire life to have you by my side,” Legolas mumbled as you felt your insides warm at his words.
“I love you”
“I love you too”

Day Three - Wedding
Joanna and Rog are getting married!
…………………………………………………………………………………..
How They Met
·       The two meet when Rog is interested in getting Joanna to audition for her band. Rog is working as a cosmetologist and running a fashion boutique with best friend Melina. Jo does contracted electronics repairs, and makes a fairly good living doing so. Jo isn’t impressed with the band at first, but she does like the girls in the band, so she decides to give it a shot and make a hobby of it.
·       She never imagined it’d become as big as it does, or that she’d fall in love along the way. (Rog, for her part, at least knew the former would happen.)
The Engagement
·       Jo is the first to broach the subject of marriage. Rog thinks she’s joking at first, and makes the mistake of laughing. But when she realizes her girlfriend really does want this, she apologizes and takes it into consideration.
·       It was never that Rog didn’t want to be with Jo for the rest of her life –she does. But she’s never been too fond of the institution of marriage (she doesn’t exactly have good examples to draw on), so it was never something she believed they needed.
·       But Jo really wants it. And Rog is instinctively indifferent to the idea, and wants so much to make Jo happy in any way she can.
·       And she loves to throw big parties.
·       So she says ‘yes, let’s get married!’ And Jo is so happy she could cry (which she does).
·       But then Rog feels a little bad that it wasn’t some Big Romantic Gesture, and starts to make a plan to really blow her girlfriend (fiancée?) away!
·       Mel and Brianna are out doing “Love of My Life,” and as it draws to the end of the song Jo and Rog come back out into the shadows. All like normal so far. But then the lights come up toward the very end of the song, and Jo’s wondering like, ‘did they forget the cue or..?’
·       And then Rog comes down from the riser with a little box in her hand, and Mel hands her the mic. Jo is staring at her in shock, and everyone in the crowd is confused but also super excited to see what’s going on!
·       “I’ve never been one for subtlety, and a love this big deserves an equally big gesture.”
·       And she drops to one knee with the biggest smile on her face and Jo’s covering her mouth in shock and the audience goes wild!! And Rog puts the ring on her fiancée’s finger and they hug tight.
·       Mel grabs the mic back and teasingly begs them to get a room, and less than a minute later they’re back on track with the show, all happier than ever.
Date
·       The wedding is scheduled for April 27th, giving the couple approximately nine months to plan their wedding between studio sessions and interviews and press releases. Rog is stressed out by the process but takes it in stride, only really losing her temper twice during the process. Jo actually finds it very relaxing! She likes organization and details and budgets.
Style
·       They have a fairytale princess theme. (Not Disney, more ethereal and fantastical). Appropriate for two members of a band called King, but they both insist it’s a coincidence!
·       It’s really a fairytale ending for them. Jo grew up in a very conservative household, and only very few in her family are open-minded enough that she even dares to invite them to the wedding. She never thought she’d be able to happily marry the woman of her dreams, but that day is coming, soon, and she’s so incredibly excited.
·       The color scheme is white and pink with gold accents. Very light and regal.
Venue
·       They get married at a castle, as any princesses should! The reception is held under a tent on the estate lawn.
Guest List
·       The guests are mostly friends, new and old. They do have some family coming, too, but they’re both much happier sharing this day with friends that love and support them than family that doesn’t.
·       In total the headcount comes to about 50 for the ceremony and 200 for the reception.
Wedding Party
·       The wedding party consists only of their sisters, Melina, and Brianna. Melina is Rog’s maid of honor and Brianna is Jo’s, but Mel is by far most involved in the planning process with them.
Photography & Videography
·       It’s very important to them that the wedding photos and videos capture their incredible joy and love for each other. They go for a photographer whose style is very light and airy, almost fairy-like.
·       They make a list of all the important moments they want their photographer and videographer to capture. It’s a long list.
DJ & Band
·       They have a DJ for the ceremony audio and most of the reception. But they’re in the music industry, and are friends with some big names in the industry, so they call in a few favors to have some great live entertainment.
·       They’re very serious about only having love songs and fun songs play –no breakup, heartbreak, or other sad songs. Rog is firmly of the belief that those songs have no place at a wedding, “at least not a happy one.”
·       Mel and Brianna go up on stage to sing “You’re My Best Friend.”
Flowers
·       Lots of pink and white peonies, mixed with some dark greenery. Jo carries a bouquet; Rog wears a matching flower in her hair.
Dinner, Drinks, & Desserts
·       They want to have a wide range of food options for all tastes and dietary needs, and they have enough space to have stations spread out around the dining area. Jo goes for steak and potatoes; Rog beelines for the hibachi grill.
·       They splurge on booze, but neither of them plan to get very drunk that night. They want to be sure to remember it all.
·       Rog has a sweet tooth, so dessert is very important. Instead of a big wedding cake, they opt for a diverse dessert table, just getting a cute little cake for the sake of cutting (they both really want to shove it in the other’s face.)
Dresses & Other Attire
·       They try to match their dresses fairly well, even though they’re going for very different silhouettes –and not seeing each other in their dresses for their wedding days. It requires a lot of coordination between Mel and Brianna to figure out whether their choices will work well together without letting on to Rog or Jo what the other might be wearing. It’s an exhausting arrangement but well worth it.
·       Thin and tall Jo decides on a column shape, letting the satin flow from her shoulders down to the floor. It’s very simple but she feels so pretty and elegant, and after trying out several other styles she’s quite certain this is the one for her. It takes some alterations, but by the big day it fits her perfectly and she cries when she sees herself.
·       She wears simple white Mary-Jane shoes, and a silver chain choker.
·       Rog, to fit the princess theme, goes for an A-line ball gown. It brings all the attention to her and she kind of loves that. It’s also satin with lace trim, and a layer of tulle over her large skirt. It’s one of the first dresses she tried on –Mel found it and knew she would absolutely love it, which she did. Even though she tries on other gowns, it she remains fairly sure she’ll go back to that one, which of course she does.
·       Rog wears silver and shear T-strap heels, a diamond choker and matching bracelets.
·       The rings are identical silver bands with shimmering opal insets, and “Always & Forever” inscribed on the insides.
Hair & Makeup
·       Rog wears her hair in a half-updo. Jo wears hers down. Both of their makeup is elegant and just dramatic enough to show up on camera, Jo’s a bit more natural than Rog’s.
Gift Registry
·       Because they don’t need anything, and have more than enough to buy anything they could want, they decide instead to ask guests to donate to one (or all) of their selected favorite charities in place of bringing a gift.
Bridesmaid Attire
·       The bridesmaid dresses are rose gold silk. Of course, Mel picked them out. The styles are flat silhouettes but cut is up to the woman’s preferences.
Bachelorette Party
·       They have a joint bachelorette party with their bridal party and a few other friends. They go to New York City for a long weekend and just have a crazy time together, shopping and bar-hopping and clubbing in all the best places in the city.
·       They’re very glad they did this a week before the wedding, though, because everyone is so horribly hungover half the weekend.
Vows
·       R: “I never wanted to get married, and then I met you. You’ve brought such joy and light to my life that I can’t imagine ever giving you up, and so –maybe it was selfish of me— but I knew early on I had to have you forever. You make me want to be the best version of myself just so I can pretend I deserve someone as kind and brave and clever as you. I will cherish you forever and ever. Thank you for wanting to be my wife. I love you.”
·       J: “I’ve been dreaming of my wedding day since I was seven years old. It took almost ten more years to realize I didn’t want to marry a man, but another woman, and my fantasy was dashed to pieces. For many years I accepted that it would just never be true –that I would never get to celebrate my love with the woman of my dreams, and decided that maybe I could be happy without ever finding love like I dreamed of. But then I found the greatest love when I wasn’t looking, in a college dive bar. Fate was good to me that day, and I haven’t ever taken it for granted. You’re an incredible woman. You make me feel loved, you make me laugh, and you make me want to be the best that I can be. I’m rambling now because I love you more than words could ever say. So I’ll leave it at this: I love you, Rog. I will love you and care for you and stand by your side from now until the end of time, and am so blessed to receive your love in return.”
Honeymoon
·       Rog surprises Jo on their wedding night with lacy white lingerie under her gown.
·       They go to Fiji for their honeymoon and have an amazing time. They have the rest of their lives together, and things couldn’t be more perfect.

Get to know me tag thing!
1. Dogs or Cats? Dogs FTW! Though I could maybe have a cat one day, depending.
2. YouTube celebrities or normal celebrities? I’m not sure YouTube celebrities count as celebrities, haha. And I certainly couldn’t name a single one, so normal celebrities it is. I have a hard enough time naming those. :P
3. If you could live anywhere where would that be? UGH it depends on the day and how I’m feeling, honestly. I live for the wide-open countryside, but I love the mountains and the forest, and I would love some small, historic old town where I could walk everywhere on cobblestone streets. It’s easier for me to say where I don’t want to live than where I do!
4. Disney or DreamWorks?  Disney (especially now that it has Marvel and Star Wars), but honestly DreamWorks has some real gems.
5. Favourite childhood TV show? MY LITTLE PONY. Especially those old movies and that original 80s character style??? A+++ the new My Little Pony honestly failed hard in the style department (didn’t stop me from getting a stupid amount of the toys tho because they were so cute). :’D Then there was X-men and Spiderman, and later on Pokemon, Digimon, and Yugioh. ♥
6. The movie you’re looking forward to most in 2020?
I’m a sap for movies, I love them. so RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON, probably on the top of my list next to whatever Star Wars is coming out then. Mulan, Artemis Fowl, Dolittle!! (omg that takes me back so hard) And probably some others I can’t remember.
7. Favorite book you read in 2019? I did not read a book this year. :sob: But there was some excellent fanfiction, some very excellent webcomics, and some very very excellent RPing <_<. Oh, there was a kids book, The Tea Dragon Society, which is super cute, highly recommend. Maybe next year I’ll get through my stash of backlogs. >_>
8. Marvel or DC? Marvel for movies, ANYTHING ELSE for comics.  Tho the Wonder Woman and Superman movies have been super epic too, hmm.  Anyway, I cannot stand these superhero comics, they’re convoluted and incoherent (and generic) as heck.  You can find so much better stories and artwork elsewhere.
9. If you choose Marvel favorite member of the X-Men? If you choose DC favourite Justice League member? G A M B I T
10. Night or Day? Day, except for the part where I work during it, and so most of my worthwhile activities get done at night. XD
11. Favourite Pokemon?  MEWTWO
12. Top 5 bands/artists:
Uhhh, there are a few country bands I actually like enough of their songs to recognize, except none of the names are coming to me OH WELL.  Celtic Woman, that’s one artist for you.  And Rockapella!  That’s it, all I got.  I just don’t pay attention to names.  XD
13. Top 10 books.
OK HERE WE GO have I got the books 4U:
The entire Star Wars X-Wing series.
The entire Star Wars Mandalorian series.
The Wolfwalker series by Tara K. Harper ( @dingoat <_< )
Dragon of the Lost Sea series by Laurence Yep
Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher by Bruce Coville
Song of the Lioness series by Tamora Pierce
The Pit Dragon Chronicles by Jane Yolen
All the Pern books by Anne McCaffrey
The Dinotopia books by James Gurney
The Belgariad series by David Eddings (loved all his stuff honestly)
A lot of those I read long, loooong ago so maybe I would have different opinions now if I re-read them.  But boy did they influence me A LOT growing up.
14. Top 4 movies
STAR WARS especially Rogue One :sob:, How to Train Your Dragon, Sherlock Holmes (the recent movies), The Man from UNCLE (also the recent movie).  This list will change by the hour. 8)
15. America or Europe?  Europe.  I live in America and it’s comfy and all, but really Europe has all the cool places going for it, AND ALSO public transportation, get your act together America.
16. Tumblr or Twitter?  Tumblr FTW.  I will never understand the point of Twitter, tho Blakk does have a Twitter account that he rarely uses. 8)
17. Pro-choice or Pro-life?  What a great polarizing question for such an innocent Q&A meme; gotta wonder what the author was thinking. 8)  I’m pro-you-can-have-whatever-opinion-you-want-as-long-as-you-don’t-inflict-it-on-other-people because it’s not your f*ing business to run their lives, pro-this-isn’t-worthy-of-becoming-law, pro-act-responsibly-in-the-first-place-and-use-birth-control, and, failing that because people sure as hell like to manufacture fake issues, pro-choice.  Because just imagine thinking you get to determine what someone else gets to suffer (and literally pay for, $$$) for 9 months and then force them through the horrific physical ordeal of birthing a baby when they just. don’t. want. to.  I mean, you might as well decide someone should just take an axe and cut off their own arm just because you want them to; it really amounts to the same thing.  :/  (Please note, wanting to have a baby and being forced are two entirely different things. It’s an ordeal, regardless, and not something to approach unwillingly.)
18. Favorite YouTuber? No one, don’t care enough to remember usernames. XD
19. Favorite author ? I’m so bad with remembering names, but here are some I do, so they must be worth something: Timothy Zahn, Mike Stackpole, Kevin J. Anderson, and also the above listed authors, half of which I had to Google. 8)
Also ME, because I know I write well and I love the stuff I write!
Honestly also everyone I RP with (past and present) because yeah there’s a reason I’m addicted to this hobby. ♥
20. Tea or Coffee?  I mean.  Coffee, ok??  But like, also.  TARO MILK TEA and a hundred other teas especially with cream and sugar, and the concept of High Tea is amazing.  ... That’s mostly the snacks, BUT STILL.
21. OTP ?  Blakk/Saare (old ship, many of you probably haven’t seen it, but it’s also my canon ship).  Blakk also ships stupidly well with several other OCs ... you know who you are ... and also how much I wish they could also be canon ...
22. Do you play an instrument/sing ?  Piano!  At least I could, before we moved around 6th grade and I gave it up.  But it was the one extracurricular activity I stuck with for a number of years.  I’m sure I’m ridiculously rusty.  Probably I can still read the music. 8)  I can sing (mainly in the car), but it doesn’t mean I should.  XDD
Tagged By: @dingoat, thank you!!! ♥♥♥
Tagging:  @kaosstar, @princess-triton, @theanaideialegacy, @starrealis, @lhunuial, @empire-at-war, @ you!  (I’ve been pretty awol lately in terms of interacting a ton online so I’m not sure who’s still around, haha!)

Sophie Turner interview for Glamour UK
‘He loves me more than he loves himself’: Sophie Turner chats romance with Joe Jonas as she joins Maisie Williams for GLAMOUR’s SS19 cover shoot
Yass Queens! Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams became megawatt stars as the slaying Stark Sisters in Game of Thrones. Here, in their first-ever joint cover shoot, they let us in on the friendship and the fierce attitude that will take them beyond Westeros. Words By: Josh Smith
“People always think Maisie and I are a couple. I mean, I am obsessed with her, so you never know,” Sophie Turner deadpans about her Game Of Thrones on-screen sister. “She’s my drug. I’ve got an addiction to Maisie Williams. I actually stalk her hashtag on Instagram!”
When the two actors are united on GLAMOUR’s shoot there are squeals, huge hugs and even – to prove the above point – a bit of dry-humping. The on-set vibe? A sticky floor away from a Saturday night out OUT.
Anyone who might suggest their chemistry isn’t real off-screen would likely be met with the full ‘Stark sister’ wrath; an electrifying on-screen pairing that has helped turn Game Of Thrones (GOT) into the biggest TV show in the world, with a global audience of millions. Yet the world of ‘Mophie’ (as fans have dubbed them), is as free from Hollywood artifice as you could wish for.
Maisie, 21, and Sophie, 23, met aged 12 and 13 respectively during the audition process for GOT, back in 2009. Practically love at first sight, email addresses were exchanged and, “Honestly, we’ve been best friends ever since,” says Sophie. Following many raucous nights in and out (more on that later), their constant stream of text messages to one another, and the matching ‘07.08.09’ tattoos on their forearms (the date they landed their roles), these two – in true GOT fashion – have pledged allegiance to each other for life.
“Put us in the same room and we pick up where we left off,” adds Maisie. “We’ve always been really open with each other. As you get older, the stakes are higher, the problems get worse – so it’s built into a lifelong friendship. Sophie knows too much about me to not be my friend.”
Sisters In Arms
Despite coming of age in the public eye, the pair have managed to avoid the child-star curse of burning out too soon. And they both credit each other with getting through it.
Pushing her vegan meal around a takeaway box with her fork as they both take a break from shooting, Maisie serves a refreshing dish of disclosure. “I can’t tell you the amount of times Sophie said, ‘Go to therapy,’ before I actually did. She really helped me through some messy break-ups and some friend break-ups. Whenever I’m like, ‘I need help! This is bigger than anything I can sort out on my own,’ Sophie is my point of call. I think therapy is so important. You should absolutely speak to someone, even if in your head you go, ‘Yeah, I knew that!’”
Sophie agrees, “We’ve helped each other through a lot of mental-health problems, especially around body image. She’s been my crutch in that, and I’ve been hers because it seems everything she goes through, I go through. You know when girls are together a long time, their periods sync up? It’s like our emotions and personalities sync up, too.”
While many high-profile actors may balk at being open about their mental health so early in their careers, both Maisie and Sophie feel passionately about sharing their struggles. With a combined social-media following of 20 million and counting, they’re fully aware of how their position enables them to help others. “I’ve gone through some lows in my life and I want to come out of them in a positive way and help people,” says Sophie. “I actually have a really big problem with not being able to stand up for myself,” she adds. “Especially if I’m arguing against a man. Jessica Chastain [who Sophie worked with on new X-Men film Dark Phoenix] is the one that said it to me, ‘You need to stand up for yourself more!’” She’s referring to the time when an actor she worked with “walked off set” when it was time for her to say her lines, and a writer stood in for him. “She [Jessica] said, ‘Just go and talk to him, go and say something to him!’ I’m a bit of a shy, pushover person, but I’m getting there, I’m working on it.”
The work is paying off: in January this year, she went into battle on Twitter with Piers Morgan after he said celebrities were making mental-health problems ‘fashionable’. Sophie blasted back: “Or maybe they have a platform to speak out about it and help get rid of the stigma of mental illness, which affects one in four people in the UK per year. But please go ahead and shun them back into silence. Twat.” Don’t mess with a Stark.
Sharing The Throne
While they seem incredibly in tune with their bodies on GLAMOUR’s set, like anyone constructing an identity in our social-media age, the topic of body image has been part of their lives since GOT first drew swords in 2011. How has playing tomboy Arya Stark – who is largely devoid of sexuality – during her formative teenage years affected the way Maisie perceives herself? “I’ve never felt very pretty because I’ve never been portrayed as very pretty on screen. I actually think that’s really great, but in terms of how I personally feel, it’s been difficult sometimes,” she says.
But being on set with women of all ages, shapes and sizes, from Emilia Clarke and Lena Headey to 6ft 3in Gwendoline Christie – has helped both actors. “I’ve met incredible women who all look very different. They all had really positive messages for us,” adds Maisie. “But I don’t know that you can ever really get away from the intense pressure of body image when you’re an actor. It was something I never cared about. I never thought I was fat until I became an actor – and I’m not fat! I don’t know any young woman that I’ve spoken to in this industry who hasn’t struggled one way or another with their appearance. I just think it’s very hard to escape.”
Building a positive body image is something Maisie has struggled with outside the bubble of GOT’s seven kingdoms, “Especially when you get down to the final three for a role. You can all be really talented, but ultimately it comes down to the way you look. It’s hard not to obsess over that. I try to nip it in the bud because it’s self-destructive.”
These doubts have also, in turn, sadly affected Sophie. “When I first started out acting, I thought, ‘Arghhh, I’m going to have to be really skinny for the rest of my life,’ and I’m not naturally that kind of person. But when it came to filming X-Men [Sophie started playing Jean Grey in X-Men: Apocalypsein 2016], I saw Jennifer Lawrence, who is small, but curvy and not your typical ‘skinny star’. It made me feel so good that people see these women as powerful superheroes, and they don’t have to be stick thin – that’s how it should be. That’s how women should be depicted in every film.”
The Wedding Is Coming
Sophie’s life has transformed, over the past two years in particular, with one fashion ambassadorship for Louis Vuitton and one blindingly huge engagement ring from her pop-star other half – Joe Jonas – who proposed in October 2017 after an 11-month romance. In true Gen-Z fashion, an Instagram announcement followed, along with his and hers Addams Family Halloween costumes, two pooches and a Swiss ski holiday with her in-laws to be, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra(who Sophie affectionately nicknames her J-Sister).
But the biggest changes, she says, have actually come from within. “I think for the longest time I didn’t have a real sense of myself. I had a bit of an identity crisis where I was playing all these people and I’d grown up faster than I probably should have done. I hadn’t been able to experience university, or just spend a lot of time with friends, so for a while I kept thinking, ‘Who am I?’
“A lot of [my happiness now] is to do with being with a person I’ve fallen in love with, who loves me more than he loves himself, and who wants to see me find my own happiness. That was probably the biggest thing that pushed me to find who I am – and find my happiness in things other than acting.” Her happy hobby: “I love a painting sesh. It’s actually really tragic; it’s like the worst painting you’ve ever seen, but I love doing it!”
As someone who fiercely protects her private life, talk of Joe is usually off limits. How has the prying media reshaped her life? Showing a hint of exasperation with the situation, Sophie says, “I appreciate the private moments more than the public ones; I don’t go out as much as I used to. I’m a hermit. As an actor, it’s important to be able to dissolve into a character, to maintain some sort of anonymity and it’s hard if you’re dating a Jonas brother. Well, I think they [the paparazzi] follow Joe – I’m just the tag-along!”
Faced with following the wedding of 2018 (sorry Meghan!), of Priyanka and Nick, a leaked ‘save the date’ suggests Sophie’s dream wedding will take place in France this year. While Sophie won’t confirm or deny any of the details, her bridesmaid Maisie revealed that she’s got a full-throttle hen do planned. But how much of a planner is Sophie? Did she ever foresee getting married at just 23 years old? “I’m actually not a planner at all,” she laughs. “I’m more of a procrastinator. I plan at the last minute and definitely don’t have a five-year plan. I’m not thinking, ‘I wanna have an Oscar by the time I’m 30.’ I just like to ride the wave of life and see where it takes me, rather than setting a plan out for myself. It’s more fun that way, it’s more spontaneous.”
Stark Solidarity
Growing up on set, hundreds of miles away from their homes in Warwickshire and Somerset, meant Sophie (who has two elder brothers) and Maisie (also the youngest in her family, with three older siblings) became each other’s standard bearers on set. How much did this closeness help when working in an industry at the centre of #MeToo? “I never experienced any of that,” Sophie says. “But Maisie is definitely my protector and I’m hers, too. I know if anything happened – especially if it was on Game Of Thrones, which it never, ever would – she’d go fucking crazy and protect me. To have a sister there, a woman who gets how degrading and awful it can be, and how you’re expected to be so submissive in your work, can be very comforting. Maisie is my strong home.”
And the feeling is mutual: “Sophie is someone who really looks out for me. I could call her at any time, and she would pick up. I think that goes a long way in this industry, because you have a lot of friends, but you’re never quite sure of how deep that goes. People surprise you all the time in life.
“I broke up from a best friend in a really messy and difficult way. It was so hard because I like to stay in touch with the people I grew up with. I couldn’t figure out what I’d done and whether I was a bad person – it was tough. Sophie helped me realise I wasn’t the bad person I thought I was.”
Does Maisie still worry about fame affecting her friendships? “Oh God, yeah. It’s all I think about. Well, it’s not, I think about boys a lot, too!” She has remained notably low-key about her long-term relationship with Ollie Jackson – who she met at school – except for the odd exchanging of fire emojis on Instagram and public Trivial Pursuit disputes.
As well as being there to support each other away from The North, Sophie and Maisie are also partial to a prank on set. “Even though we’re sisters [in GOT], we tried to sneak a kiss into every scene we did together to freak everyone out a bit,” Sophie laughs. “It kept them on their toes; making sure they were following the script.”
This sense of fun has helped them cope with the unblinking barbarity their characters face in GOT. Spoiler alert – by the close of season seven, Arya (Maisie) had murdered 64 people and Sansa (Sophie) had been forced into an arranged marriage and suffered continuous abuse. But they have become each other’s escape off camera. Maisie recalls one memorable night out-out when they went to [London nightclub] Fabric the night before flying to LA for the GOT premiere, two seasons ago. “I don’t think either of us went to bed. That was good fun!” Although, she admits, “Our nights in are better than our nights out. We put on Frank Ocean’s Blonde, go to Tesco and get a meal deal. We love watching clips of people on X Factor who get aggressive.”
It gets better, “When we were filming and staying together, we would give each other makeovers,” says Sophie. “I turned Maisie into a Goth once – and just ran around the hotel. We also like to play Ding Dong Ditch a lot, just stupid, childish shit.”
Done Playing Games
Fundamentally, what makes this friendship so remarkable is that there’s zero competition between them. They even constantly recommend each other for potential new roles, something that Maisie thinks is rare in the industry. “For a long time in my career, I didn’t really meet anyone whowas mean or acted like a diva, but then I did,” she says.
“There’s a real lack of respect when people are bitchy on set.” For someone who was heavily bullied when she returned to school after filming the first series of GOT (Maisie even discovered that an anonymous account abusing her online was set up by someone she knew) this experience brought back painful memories of playground politics. “It felt like I was back at school,” she says. “It’s like, ‘We’ve all been given this amazing opportunity and now you’re making it unpleasant for me.’”
It’s hardly surprising that Maisie and Sophie’s anti-Mean Girls approach applies to supporting other young actors they know, too. “Sometimes I think, ‘Oh God, we’re probably all going up for the same roles,’” says Sophie. “‘We’re all the same age, [are we] just going to be catty towards each other?’ But all the women I’ve worked with have been very supportive – and vice versa. I want them to do well because women should be all in it together. I go for a lot of roles that people like Zoey Deutch go for, or Chloë Moretz, but they’re my friends – I really want them to get those roles, and half the time they’re better at the roles than me anyway, so I’m fine with it. I’m glad I didn’t embarrass myself!”
The End Is Coming…
As they both venture into a post-GOT world – Maisie will follow Sophie into the X-Men franchise, with a new, separate film: The New Mutants. Don’t bank on seeing them reunited on screen any time soon, though (sigh). “Everyone on set is sick and tired of us being so loud and laughing so much!” says Maisie. “I don’t know if we’ll work together again. I don’t know if people would cast us in something together because we are so known for these two characters. Game Of Thrones will be some of the funniest days of my life.”
However, their rallying call to young women will outlive GOT. “It’s about what’s in your mind and how clever you are at playing the game – that’s more important and will get you further than how you look,” Maisie adds. “Being switched on, aware, analysing, and understanding people is going to get you so much further than being pretty.” Advertisement
So, what about those final series plot spoilers? While Maisie jokes that you’d have to get her “very drunk”, to reveal the ending, someone else is already in the know. “I’ve just told Joe [Jonas],” confesses Sophie. “But he’s so mad at me – he loves the show!” She shrugs sheepishly. “Well, I have to tell someone, otherwise I’ll burst.” That’s right, Mophie play by their own rules.
Game Of Thrones season eight airs on Sky Atlantic and Now TV on April 15. To watch Sophie and Maisie share their hilarious life advice stay tuned to GLAMOUR UK ON MONDAY

Food Network (Amalgam!verse)
After ‘Christmas in July’ but before Colombina discovers that Ryder and Nightcreeper are the same person.
Kurt was just finishing up his list of questions for tonight’s live interview when the phone on his desk buzzed.  Picking up the receiver, he spoke.  “Good morning, Kurt Ryder speaking, who’s this?”
He heard the tinny voice of the front desk receptionist in return.  “Ah, Ryder, there’s a young woman here, says her name is Kitty Pryde.  She’s brought your lunch?”  He hesitated before answering.  His focus on social justice meant he occasionally had to field assassination attempts, and it wouldn’t be the first time someone had used the name of a friend to try to get to him.  “She also said something about how the smell of burnt squid takes forever to clean up and that she’s blaming you.”
“Send her right up then.” He said with a smile.  The burnt squid had been his attempt to make dinner for the Wayne household yesterday, probably not something an enemy would know about.  It had prompted the entire household to eat out, but they did that often enough that it wouldn’t set off any alarms.
“You bastard, making me walk all the way down here just to deliver your lunch.  You’re lucky we’ve got a half-day at school otherwise I’d just leave you to starve.”
“I could buy my own, but your cooking is so much better Kitty.” He said, eagerly digging into the paper bag she had brought him.
“Aww, no fair.  I want a pretty girlfriend to bring me lunch too!”  At the open doorway, Remington Cord and Vera Sweet were looking in.  Cord had an open smile on his face, while Vera had a scowl.
“I’m not his girlfriend.”  “She’s not my girlfriend.”
“She’d better not be.”  Vera gave Kitty a thorough up-and-down and apparently approved.  “She looks a little young for you, Ryder.”
Kitty bristled.  “I’m seventeen.”
“And he’s twenty-nine.  Watch out for cradle-robbers little girl.”
Kitty took the comment with ill-grace but refrained from arguing.  As the two junior reporters walked over by the desk, she looked up at Remington Cord with an expression of awe on her face.  He noticed and grinned down at her.
“Impressed?  I’m flattered that you tossed Ryder over for plain old me.”
She shook her head, making her amber curls bounce.  “Well, sort of, but not for the reasons you might think.  You’re the fourth tall, black-haired, blue-eyed male athlete I’ve met in the past year.  I’m just surprised at the coincidence.”
“Logan’s not tall.” Ryder interjected.
“Compared to me, everyone’s tall.”
“Oh and here I thought I could beat Ryder in the good looks department.  Guess I’ll just have to settle for being younger and wittier.”
Kurt leaned forward, resting his chin on his clasped hands.  “Younger, but not wittier.  Also definitely poorer.”
“Enjoy your gold diggers, kraut.  But seriously, if you’re not his girlfriend, why are you dropping off his lunch then?”  Vera turned towards the teenager.
“Because I cooked it for him.”
“And he couldn’t cook for himself?”
Kitty gave them all an incredulous look.  “Cook?  Kurt?  How many people do you want to kill?”
The two junior reporters turned to look at Ryder.  He nodded his head.  “It’s true.  Last time I cooked, I set the fridge on fire.”
Cord asked the obvious question.  “And how long ago was that?”
“Last night.”  A pregnant pause filled the air as two people tried to imagine how that could happen, and two others recalled the very vivid images of the previous evening.  Shaking his head clear of the memories, Kurt turned back to his fellow reporters.    “So I take it that you're done with your interview with Oswald Cobblepot?”
“We are,” agreed Remington.  “From what I can tell, this should probably go into entertainment or maybe food.  He honestly seems to be going straight now.”
“We tried.  I even snuck around the back, but the worst I could see was that he was slightly paranoid about security.  And given his history, I can’t say I blame him.”  Griped Vera, pointing to a stain on her skirt.
“Hmmm, Triple J will be disappointed, but not enough to demand changes.  Have you decided who’s going to do the article?”
“I will,” announced the blonde.  “He’s volunteered to do the editing this time.”
“Are you sure that’s a good idea?  Your name’s not going to be featured.”
“Entertainment’s not my thing.  Besides, it will give me more time for my hobby.”
“What is your hobby?” asked Kitty, who had been watching the interaction with fascination.  Ryder and Sweet groaned while Cord perked up.
“I’m glad you asked.  I like to study cryptids.”
“Now you’ve done it.” whispered the eldest reporter.  “He’ll talk about these things for hours.  Your interest will die, be memorialized and forgotten before he stops.”
Remington gave them a mock glare.  “You know, I was right about Abominite.  There really was a horrible monster living in the sewers of New Gotham.”
“You were right about that,” conceded the female reporter.  “But that was once, out of eight times.  If you were a horse, I’d shoot you.”
“So who, or rather what, are you researching now?” asked Kitty, trying to keep the peace.  Kurt would have told her it was futile.
“The Nightcreeper!”
“Who doesn’t exist,” hissed Ryder.  “Some of the others I could believe that they were possible, but this time you’re chasing a fantasy created by drunk criminals to explain to their bosses why they don’t have the money that they drank away.”
The younger man narrowed paler blue eyes at the other.  “I’ve got over a dozen witness accounts, from people who weren’t drunk.  I’ve got photographs of the graffiti he’s left behind.  I’ve plenty of proof if you would care to observe.”
“Cryptids are your obsession, not mine.”  Kurt sighed and turned back to Kitty, who was staring at them all with wide eyes.  “I’m sorry you had to see that.  So are you staying this afternoon or . . . “
“No, Jubilee’s got this anime club she wants me to attend.  I’m on my way to that.”  She made her way over to the door.  “So, um, bye, uh?”
“I’m so sorry Kitty, I should have introduced you.”  Kurt stood up and gestured to his right.  “This is Vera Sweet.  She works as the meteorologist for the station, but is looking to become a field reporter.”  The two women gave each other a brief nod.
“And this,” now a gesture to the left.  “Is my protege Remington Cord.  Remi’s shows a lot of potential as a reporter.  Someday he may be almost as famous as me!”  Remington gave her a big smile and stepped up to shake her hand.
Kitty raised an eyebrow but accepted the handshake.  “Damned by faint praise?” she whispered to the younger man.
“The faintest,” he agreed.
“Remi, Vera, this is Kitty Pryde.  She’s Logan Wayne’s newest ward.”
Vera looked at her with cool eyes.  “You’re living with Logan Wayne?  Why on earth are you hanging around delivering this loser’s lunch?”
Kitty looked her straight in the eye.  “Because he’s my guinea pig.”
Kurt shrugged.  “It’s true.  Kitty is learning to cook and needed someone to taste test her creations.”
Cord stared at his mentor.  “You are an incredibly brave man.”
The youngest one shot him a glare.  “Anyway, give me a call tonight and tell me how it tastes, alright?”
Ryder gave her a smile and a lopsided salute.  “Will do.  Give the others my apologies.”
Once she’d gone, Kurt turned to his protege.  “I’m not that brave.  She’s really an excellent cook.”
Cord wasn’t paying attention.  “Seventeen, huh?  Not that young actually.  Not that young at all.”
Vera raised one hand and waved it in front of Remington’s dreamy eyes.  “You’re going to regret introducing them one day.” she predicted when her fellow reporter didn’t even react.
Kurt just sighed and started to unwrap his lunch.

do you like your neighbors? haven’t met them! we moved in like a month ago but we still haven’t seen anyone that lives on our floor

Manga the Week of 2/3/21
SEAN: February! The most depressing month of the year! Let’s cheer ourselves up with some new titles!
Airship has two digital-first light novels: Classroom of the Elite 7.5 and The Saint’s Magic Power Is Omnipotent 3.
J-Novel Club has LOTS of stuff. Let’s start with print, as we get two new omnibuses. Banner of the Stars 1-3 is the light novel series, while How A Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom 1-2 is a collection of the manga.
ASH: The Banner of the Stars omnibus looks nice.
SEAN: Also in print: Ascendance of a Bookworm 7 (the final volume of the 2nd arc), By the Grace of the Gods 2, and In Another World with My Smartphone 14.
ASH: Hooray for more Bookworm!
SEAN: Digitally, J-Novel Club has two debuts. The Great Cleric (Seija Musou – Salaryman, Isekai de Ikinokoru Tame ni Ayumu Michi), whose manga adaptation Kodansha is already putting out here, is the first. A reincarnated Salaryman decides to try to live to a nice old age by being a healer. Little does he know…
The other debut is She’s the Cutest… But We’re Just Friends! (Ore no Onna Tomodachi ga Saikou ni Kawaii), a relatively recent series. A guy finds that the hottest girl in the school shares the same gaming hobbies he does. They quickly become best friends… so why does everyone think they’re dating? This looks cute and fun.
Also out digitally: Animeta! 5, An Archdemon’s Dilemma: How to Love Your Elf Bride 4 (manga version), Banner of the Stars 5, I Shall Survive Using Potions! 4 (manga version), Invaders of the Rokujouma!? 35, Sorcerous Stabber Orphen 10, and The World’s Least Interesting Magic Swordsman 5.
MICHELLE: Animeta! is pretty fun.
ASH: I’ve been enjoying the series, too.
SEAN: No debuts in print for Kodansha, but we do get Eden’s Zero 10, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Trinity in Tempest 2, and Witch Hat Atelier 7.
ANNA: Always happy for more Witch Hat Atelier.
ASH: Yes, indeed!
MELINDA: I realize it’s probably a very different slime, but after playing a lot of Genshin Impact, is it weird that I’m suddenly interested in that dude’s reincarnation?
The digital debut is My Dearest Self With Malice Aforethought (Shin’ai naru Boku e Satsui o Komete), a dark title from Young Magazine. Virgin Eiji wakes up one day to find a girlfriend in his bed, his friend saying he got in a fight, and no memory of the last three days. What’s going on?
Also digital: Chihayafuru 24, Otherworldly Munchkin: Let’s Speedrun the Dungeon with Only 1 HP! 3, Our Fake Marriage 5, and The Invincible Reincarnated Ponkotsu 3.
MICHELLE: I can’t let a mention of Chihayafuru go by without saying “Yay!”.
ANNA: Wooo!!!
SEAN: Believe it or not, we now move to Viz. The debut is The King’s Beast (Ou no Kemono), the latest Rei Touma series, and set in the same universe as Dawn of the Arcana. The world isn’t great: those who are half-beast, half-human are discriminated against. So our heroine serves under the king disguised as a man. This runs in Cheese!.
MICHELLE: I really liked Dawn of the Arcana and The Water Dragon’s Bride, so I expect I will like this, too!
ANNA: I like both of those series, and I enjoy it when a heroine has to disguise herself as a man, so I have high hopes for this.
ASH: Ditto what you both said! I’m looking forward to giving this manga a try.
MELINDA: I admit I’m a little tapped out on “heroine disguises herself as a man” when it’s not actually about a trans person, but I’ll give it a shot.
SEAN: Shonen! Blue Exorcist 25, Boruto 10, Chainsaw Man 3, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba 20, Dr. STONE 15, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Part 4–Diamond Is Unbreakable 8, Jujutsu Kaisen 8, Kaguya-sama: Love Is War 18, Naruto: Shikamaru’s Story (a light novel), the 5th and final volume of Samurai 8, Seraph of the End 20, and We Never Learn 14.
ASH: I somehow missed reading the second volume of Chainsaw Man, so I’ll need to fix that. Also need to play some catch up with JoJo, too.
SEAN: Shoujo! Far fewer titles here. Shortcake Cake 11 and Yona of the Dawn 28. (Then again, Yona should count as 4 normal shoujo titles.)
MICHELLE: I’m happy about both of these.
ANNA: Me too!
ASH: Yay, Yona!
SEAN: Yen Press has two debuts. Sasaki and Miyano runs in Gene Pixiv, is based off a webcomic, and sounds sort of like the BL version of Horimiya.
MICHELLE: That’s intriguing!
ASH: Ooooh, when you describe it like that, I may need to check it out!
MELINDA: Sounds like this could be great!
SEAN: The Vampire and His Pleasant Companions (Kyuuketsuki to Yukai na Nakama-tachi) is a title that runs in Bessatsu Hana to Yume. A BL title based off of a novel, with art by the creator of Baby & Me, for those who recall that old Viz series. This is nothing like Baby & Me, but has lots of hot men, hot vampires, and hot vampire men.
MICHELLE: I was just reading about this mangaka yesterday because Kodansha announced their March debits and one of them is Ragawa-sensei’s Those Snow White Notes (Mashiro no Oto). Must be her time to shine.
ANNA: I have to admit, I’m intrigued by all these combinations of hotness.
MELINDA: There are some things that never get old. And by “some things” I mean “hot vampires”.
SEAN: Also out next week: Bungo Stray Dogs 17, Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody 10 (manga version), Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? On the Side: Sword Oratoria 14 (manga version), and Sword Art Online Progressive Barcarolle of Froth 2 (also a manga version, though the LN doesn’t have the subtitle).
Chilled to the bone this winter? Heat up with some manga. What are you buying?
By: Sean Gaffney
