Mike Coombs messaged me: "Hi Marc, I’m listening to your brilliant podcast for the first time in ages, recovering from an awful week of covid - it’s still with us and very real. I’ve been vaccinated and had the booster shots and I’m pretty fit but it was still awful, so goodness knows what it would have been like if hadn’t been vaccinated!

Anyway I just wanted to say how uplifting and healing it is to listen to such great music. Thank you so much for producing this. I can afford to subscribe only a small amount each month but it is worth very much more.

As a musician myself I appreciate how much a show like this can help what is not the most popular music in the world - even though it should be - to come to the attention of more people. It is great to hear so many great musicians and tunes that I have never heard before. You just mentioned Heather Dale whose album Fairytale I bought after hearing her on your show so I shall make sure to check out your next podcast! When I am better I shall probably send you an old recorded track of mine that you may want to play. I am hoping to get an album mastered as soon as I can afford it, but this track I think fits the Celtic criteria so it would be interesting to see what you and your listeners if you decide to play it think.

All the best and keep producing these great podcasts "

Bad Movie Decisions

Monstrous (2022)

This one scores lower than I'd usually accept on IMDB (4.7) but it's Christina Ricci- how bad can it be? As ever, spoilers may follow...

Guess based purely upon the blurb: the monster is the husband or CR herself.

00:18 It's a Chicken Soup for the Soul production. Strap in, folks.

01:34 CR is the monster. 100%.

02:29 I admire the ambition to make a period piece. If the twist is it isn't in the 50s, I'm going to kick off.

03:14 The kid's a little creepy weirdo, but I'm gonna assume that's a red herring.

03:50 "He's buried in there somewhere." to describe a kid allegedly sleeping in the back seat... Kid's dead, she killed him, movie solved. If this is what we're dealing with perhaps this one deserves the rating...

05:54 She said the house is like a dream and now they're playing Mr Sandman. 🤔

06:26 And now a mysterious black and white photo of a beautiful woman. This is ticking all the Bad Movie Decisions boxes.

08:54 I should buy a dress with underskirts. They look great.

09:35 It's Cody's real mum! Cody's real mum is an evil mermaid!

12:33 This whole thing feels like Charlie trying to tell Mac and Dennis the plot of a movie he half remembers and fully didn't understand in Always Sunny.

16:50 I'm not generally an advocate for putting kids on sun beds, but

18:39 " Goodnight, sweet prince". Isn't that generally what you say to people who are dying? 🤔🤔

20:11 A rip in the previously spotless sofa? Almost like the house's appearance is... a dream? 🤔🤔🤔

21:40 Well is this monster water or smoke? Make up your mind, film!

23:45 Witchy Grandma wishing she could take a young CR 'back to a simpler time' while they're both wearing suspiciously era-agnostic clothing.

27:55 If the boy is dead/imagined/whatever we should NOT be getting this much of his POV.

28:45 Now the monster's a raggy zombie thing?

30:20 Tentacles now?!

40:19 Her magazines are mysteriously spotted with age despite being new? What in the Shutter Island could this possibly mean?! 🫨

44:43 Everyone thinks they can make The Babadook, but not enough people stop to ask themselves if they should.

53:18 How stupid does this film think we are?

1:07:23 Very stupid, apparently.

1:11:09 WHY DID WE GET SO MUCH OF THE KID'S POV? WHY DO PEOPLE NO LONGER UNDERSTAND BASIC NARRATIVE CONCEPTS?!

1:17:13 Christina Ricci and the kid are both doing a fantastic job here. Nothing wrong with what they're doing at all. It's just everything else.

1:19:21 All right, just leave it at that film, and we can salvage something from all this.

1:21:55 Okay, so you could see the twist from space (just once I'd like to be wrong about these things) but they at least showed restraint at the end not spelling out every detail in excruciating depth. That alone deserves a few brownie points. I'd say 4.7 is close, but it has enough merit to take it to a solid 5, putting it firmly in the BMD sweet spot.

*Pats film gently* That'll do film. That'll do.

Best of 2022 - Albums

What a boring year it was. No big surprises, nothing out of the blue, only a few perfect records.

01. Rosalia - Motomami - “The Spanish singer’s third album delivers gem after gem, as flamenco rhythms rub shoulders with sassy party flexes.” The Observer

02. Tove Lo - Dirt Femme

03. The Smile - A Light of Attracting Attention

04. Walt Disco - Unlearning - Definitely not for everyone. “Flamboyant goth-glam that doesn’t care what the boomers think.” NME

05. Tamino - Sahar

06. Marian Hill - Why Can’t Be Just Pretend?

07. Marlon Williams - My Boy

08. The Wombats - Fix Yourself, Not The World

09. Joywave - Cleanse

10. Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul - Topical Dancer

11. Nilüfer Yanya - Painless

12. The Fear Ratio - Slinky

13. Wojciech Rusin - Syphon

14. Lyndsey Lawlor - Dearest Philistine

15. Honey Dijon - Black Girl Magic

16. Moin - Paste - “Moin’s approach on Paste is barebones, but discerning – taking a craft knife to 80s and 90s indie music and using it to fashion their most fleshed-out release yet. “ The Guardian

17. Belle and Sebastian - A Bit of Previous

18. Florence + The Machines - Dance Fever

19. Moderat - More D4ta

20. Fontaines D.C. - Skinty Fia

21. Jockstrap - I Love You, Jennifer B

22. MO - Motordrome

23. Virgil Enzinger + Submerge - At The End

24. Ange Halliwell - Lullaby For The Dead

25. Everything Everything - Raw Data Feel

26. Röyksopp - Profound Mysteries - All versions are the same. Mostly great songs + few you can easily skip. Would be a great record if they could release the strongest songs on one record.

27. Caterina Barbieri - Spirit Exit - “For music that evokes empty clubs and shuttered churches, built on patterns dictated by a “mechanical fortune teller,” its humanity is its most haunting quality.” Pitchfork

28. Badawi - The Book of Jinn + The War of Art

29. Mykki Blanco - Stay Close to Music

30. Rival Consoles - El Caso Figo

31. Archive - Call to Arms and Angels - “What is so impressive about these songs – all of them, not just the lengthy ones – is the daring and almost fearless way with which they progress. Archive aren’t afraid to have hugely infectious would-be mainstream hits such as ‘Freedom’ collapse inward on themselves. They’re also not shy about dangling the carrot in front of their crescendo-expectant audience only to have things fade out to the gorgeous trickle of a classical piano. In the same token, there are moments when you think you’ve floated into a quiet pasture for respite when Archive will suddenly whip out the electric guitars and flood that space with noise. The transitions can be jarring but tend not to be, as Call To Arms & Angels feels less like a puzzle held together by separate pieces and more like a painting in which the different colors bleed together to form a beautiful image. It all feels interrelated, the product of a bold, creative, and eclectic vision that’s been executed to perfection.” Sputnik Music

32. Bodi Bill - I Love You, I Do

33. Get Well Soon - Amen

34. Methyl Ethel - Are You Haunted?

35. Working Men’s Club - Fear Fear - “The album tells its own superbly structured story, bathing in synthesis and heavily grounded in the contexts of lockdown, while allowing these very contexts to steer the process beyond angst and towards a utopian catharsis.” Clash

36. Stabbing Westward - Chasing Ghosts - “Stabbing Westward fans will get everything they love about the band and fair weathered fans might just be won over with this album. An absolute must buy for your industrial rock collection.” Spill Magazine

37. Hot Chip - Freakout/Release

38. Daniel Avery - Ultra Truth

39. Spoon - Lucifer on the Sofa

40. Benjamin Clementine - And I Have Been

41. Purity Ring - Graves

42. Ben Shemie - Desiderata - “Shemie has described Desiderata as "a soundtrack to a movie that doesn't exist." While this statement rings true (opener "The Departure" could have fit nicely on the score to Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey), it's also a bit of a disservice to the album.” Exclaim!

43. Local Suicide - Eros Anikate

44. Deliluh - Fault Lines

45. u-Ziq - Magic Pony Ride

46. Ovend - Rush

47. Maggie Koerner - The Bartholomew Songs

48. FKA twigs - Caprisongs - “In a discography filled with experimental pop played at an overwhelming intensity, Caprisongs offers both a feeling of playfulness and self-assurance.” The Young Folks

49. Beyonce - Renaissance

50. Subjective - The Start of No Regret - “Goldie takes a breezy trip through various avenues of electronic music with this real goodie bag of an album that’s focused, well-produced, and great fun.” Music OHM

The Sun | NASA.

20. The Earth is moving by 30 km/s around the Sun and relatively to the Sun. The Sun is orbiting the center of our Galaxy, the Milky Way, by the speed of about 200-250 km/s. Our Galaxy is moving relatively to the Local Group where it orbits and the Local Group falls toward the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies. The Earth rotates one full turn in 24 hours (t=24 h) The Earth is a perfect sphere of radius R E =6,371 km (3958.756 miles) Thus, the Earth rotational speed on the Equator is 2*π*R E /t=2*π*6371/24 km/hour = 1 667,92 km/h or 2*π*3958.756/24 = 1036.40 miles/hour.

How Fast Are You Moving When You Are Sitting Still? - NASA.

As the ISS orbits the Earth 16 times faster than the Earth's own rotation the latter is insignificant here. The trails of the city lights on Earth are due to the station moving relative to the Earth's surface while the star trails are due to the ISS rotating around its axis - once every orbit, i.e. every 90 minutes. Earth measures 24,898 miles (40,070 kilometers) in circumference, so when you divide distance by time, that means the planet is spinning 1,037 mph ( 1,670 km/h). Meanwhile, Earth orbits the sun at. It's attraction is so strong that we are being sucked into it at the rate of 600 km/s. In comparison, the earth moves around the sun at the relatively pokey rate of 30 km/s and rockets escaping the earth's gravitational pull barely move at 11 km/s. The Great Attractor is something on the order of 150 million light years from earth.

International Space Station speed: How fast does the ISS travel?.

Dec 17, 2021 · While we don't accelerate humans to near-light-speed, we do send them swinging around the planet at 17,500 mph (28,160 km/h) aboard the International Space Station.

How does Earth orbit the Sun? - BBC Sky at Night Magazine.

But, as they get farther away, that pull from the Sun gets a little weaker and weaker, reducing the deceleration experienced by the Voyagers. Today, Voyager 2 is traveling at about 15.4 km/s and. Miles per hour (792,000 km/hr)! The Earth, anchored to the Sun by gravity, follows along at the same fantastic speed. (By the way, as fast as this speed is, it is still a long way from the speed limit of the universe—the speed of light. Light travels at the unimaginably fast pace of 670 million miles per hour or 1.09 billion km/hr.).

Does The Sun Rotate | East To West, Up & Down, Stationary Or Rotation?.

The Sun: The Basics. The sun is a star, a hot ball of glowing gases at the heart of our solar system. Its influence extends far beyond the orbits of distant Neptune and Pluto. Without the sun's intense energy and heat, there would be no life on Earth. And though it is special to us, there are billions of stars like our sun scattered across the.

In Depth | Sun - NASA Solar System Exploration.

How fast does the Earth spin? A properly exposed photograph is taken at f/5.6 and 1/100 s. What lens opening is required if the shutter speed is 1/400 s? Define perihelion. "There is no natural force that would stop the Earth from spinning. That is part of why the planet has been spinning since it formed, which is pretty impressive." Related: How fast does the Earth. The earth rotates once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09053 seconds, called the sidereal period, and its circumference is roughly 40,075 kilometers. Thus, the surface of the earth at the equator.

How fast would the Earth have to rotate so that it would... - PhysL.

Airplanes primarily measure their speed through the air (airspeed), and the air tends to move with the ground, so the situation is the same. If the air is not moving the same as the ground, it's called wind, which is the primary influence on flight time. Wind is influenced by the earth's rotation, but the rotation doesn't directly influence.

What speed is Earth's rotation? - BBC Science Focus Magazine.

One orbit of the Earth takes one year. Meanwhile, our entire solar system - our sun with its family of planets, moon, asteroid and comets - orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Our sun. Even when you are sitting completely still, you are still moving extremely fast! Trace thought it would be fun to figure out just how fast we are all moving!. The average racehorses speed is approximately 40 to 44 mph (64 to 70 km/h). The rigidly trained animals can reach it for less than 20 seconds. However, most of them can't run faster than 20 to 30 mph (32 - 48.5 km/h) on average with a rider on their back. The fastest recorded galloping speed is 55 mph (88.5 km/h).

How Fast Does the Earth Spin? - ThoughtCo.

You might be surprised to know that a spot on the surface of the Earth is moving at 1675 km/h or 465 meters/second. That's 1,040 miles/hour. Just think, for every second, you're moving almost half.

How Fast Is Voyager 1 Traveling Right Now? - Forbes.

An object on Earth's equator travels about 24,901 miles (40,075 km ) per day around the planet's circumference, according to geologist Seth Kadish. According to the graphic, the speed at which.

Here's Why We Don't Feel Earth's Rotation, According to Science.

Image via NASA Earth spins on its axis once in every 24-hour day. At Earth’s equator, the speed of Earth’s spin is about 1,000 miles per hour (1,600 km per hour). Since speed is equal to the distance traveled over the time taken, Earth's speed is calculated by dividing 584 million miles (940 million km).

How Fast Does the Earth Move as it Orbits the Sun? - Futurism.

Apr 24, 2017 · With an average rotational speed of 10.892 km/h (6.768 mph), Mercury also takes 58.646 days to complete a single rotation. This means that Mercury has a spin-orbit resonance of 3:2, which means. The International Space Station travels in orbit around Earth at a speed of roughly 17,150 miles per hour (that's about 5 miles per second!). This means that the Space Station orbits Earth (and sees a sunrise) once every 92 minutes!. For example, we know the Earth rotates once per day - so 360° per 24 hours, or 15 degrees per hour. But every part of the Earth moves at a rate that is determined by that rotation rate and its distance from the axis of rotation. Since the Earth has a radius of about 6400 km, the speed of a point on its equator is about 1600 km/hr.

How fast does the earth spin in km h.

Answer (1 of 25): The crust of Earth is generally solid so the entire Earth turns at the same rotation rate. Therefore the further you are from the axis of rotation, the faster that part must move to make one rotation in a day..

Globe earth mathematical calculations... 666 - Veritas MC.

But to put it in words, he can go over 186,000 miles per second. If necessary, he can travel at a speed thousand times higher than that. Moreover, Superman's reaction time is less than 1 attosecond, which is 1×10−18 of a second. To better understand Superman's speed, let us see how he compares against planes and rockets.

Landscape Photographer Research

Michael ShainBlum:

Michael is a landscape, time-lapse and aerial photographer.

He is based in San Francisco, California.

He has worked professionally as photographer and filmmaker for 11 years from the age of 16.

Michael made the first name for himself through, his unique creativity and an ability to capture scenes and moments with his distinct style of surreal, visual story telling.

His dedication to a challenging the boundaries of creatively, as well as a flair for coming up with unique ideas.

Since then, the results in the dynamic visual artist being commissioned by large clients including Nike, Samsung, Facebook, LG and Apple.

You can also find Michael's work published by a media outlet such as the National Geographic, Wired Magazine and The weather channel.

California Photography: Seascapes

The coastal photography has recently been one of Michael main focuses for a long time.

Michael grows up by the sea in San Diego, the ocean has always been a place for him to relax and clear his mind.

Taken a seascape image has allowed him to do two of his favourite thing, and that is spend the day at the beach and shoot photography

The image on the left side, is my favourite out of the two, because of the vibrant of the pink and the reflection in the sea.

I like how has capture the image, in the centre of the camera.

I also like how; he has captured the motions of the water moving.

I think this image suite portrait, more than it would landscape as the rock is in centre of the camera and with the rock in front of the camera at the bottom.

I like how dark and moody this image look, as the rocks are dark and make this image look dramatic.

The straight bright light drags you across the image from left to right and make you look right at the rock in the middle.

This image is amazing and totally different from the one above, as it makes you think were does lead you too.

The colours in this image a different it a warm golden orange colour.

The reflection on the rock and the weave is amazing as it totally different to something I have seen before, as it stands out to me a lot.

The detail he has capture in the cloud and the water is amazing.

I like how the water lead you into the middle of the ocean and make you think were does it led you too

The image from this series of photo are all amazing but the two I picked from them stood out to me the most, as of the colour and composition within the images.

Hawaii Lava Photography:

This collection is of Hawaii photography is focused on the immense power of lave at the Volcanos National Park on a big Island of Hawaii.

The one of most truly mystical scenes, that he has ever had the pleasure of capturing.

For this collection, he wanted to showcase a beauty of his own artistic way, through fine art landscape photography.

To keep these scenes natural and true, he witnessed this on his journey.

All these images are single exposures unless it been listed otherwise in the caption below in the photo on his website.

Image one

This image from the series of image, I look at is one of the best on out of them all because of the way he been able to capture the two rainbows in the background.

I love how he has captured this image, as the rocks on the right side, leads you into the image.

The detail in the image is amazing, as you can see bit of the detail in the clouds, sea, and rocks.

The colour of the sea contrast against the rocks, as you can see the deep blue colour of the sea.

The sky give this image bit of a moody attuites, as there a volcano going over and the sky give it a dramatic mood.

Image two

This image I find interesting as you don’t know what happen in the image, even though the title tells you.

The detail in this image I love, as you able to see a lot of detail in the smoke and you can even see little rock going everywhere.

For this image, I think he has used a fast shutter speed so that he can capture the rocks at the front.

The sky in the images give the full image a dramatic mood and the red bit of lighting give it the same.

Transience

This is my contribution to @mlwriterzine Once Upon A Season! It was a pleasure to be a part of the project and the finished piece (a gorgeous 260 page paperback) was a treat!

Also on AO3!

Adrien is and always has been a young man of many talents. He excels in sports, outshines in academics, and loves tinkering with the vintage 1962 Ferrari he keeps in a secret garage just up the road from their belle-époque penthouse apartment in Paris. So honestly, Marinette shouldn’t have been surprised upon finding a sailing yacht waiting for them in the luxurious marina of Saint-Tropez.

“Um...” Gobsmacked, Marinette slips off her sandals and follows him over the exquisitely varnished toerail, “... since when do you know how to drive a boat?”

“Since I was eight.” Adrien shrugs as if it’s no big deal. “Mère loved to come down every year to watch the annual regatta. She even sailed in a few of them herself.”

“Wow.” Marinette’s eyes grow wide as she gawks at the opulent 16 metre sailboat. She’d never dreamt of setting foot on one, let alone cruising on one through the French Riviera for a week on her honeymoon. Elated, Marinette can hardly keep the stars from her eyes as she drops her shoulder bag and scampers across the deck until she reaches the front of the vessel, splaying her arms out wide.

“I’m the king of the world!” she cries, laughing as Adrien runs along behind her and plants his hands on her hips, holding her steady.

“Do you trust me?”

“Yes.” She grins into the salty breeze coming off the Mediterranean and steps onto the first rung of the railings. “Just don’t let me fall overboard.”

“You’ll be flying soon, M’Lady.” Adrien pulls her against his chest and presses a kiss to her temple, his stubble scratching softly against her skin. “But first, we have some fenders to collect.”

Marinette blinks. “Uh... what exactly is a fender?”

Adrien’s indulgent laughter echoes in the headsail. “You’re about to get a crash course in Sailing 101, Buginette. Are you ready to be my first mate?”

Marinette spins around in his arms and bops him on the nose. “Teach me everything you know, Captain Kitty.”

Adrien hums, tipping her chin upwards to kiss her lips. “I like the sound of that.”

After a few minutes of acquiring her sea legs, Marinette and Adrien Dupain-Cheng are off amidst the serene waves of la Côte d'Azur for a honeymoon trip of a lifetime. Marinette can’t keep her eyes off of the hill-perched towns dotting the coastline, sun-drenched and prismatic against the turquoise waters of the Med. Beside her, Adrien keeps their vessel steady, his seasoned gaze trained on the horizon as they pull out of port and soar northwards, the wind at their every beck and call.

For centuries, every Parisian worth their salt flocked to the French Riviera to soak up the Mediterranean sun and the Agreste’s were no different, once upon a time. Adrien’s childhood memories aboard the Éphémère remind him of bouillabaisse and happier days spent scampering across deck pretending to be a pirate in search of buried treasure. It’s something he hopes he can share with his own children one day, especially now that he and his wife no longer have to spend every spare moment of their lives fighting Hawk Moth.

Sensing her husband’s pensive mood, Marinette snuggles deeper into his side as the afternoon sun begins to dip towards the horizon. She doesn’t need Adrien to assure her that their evenings onboard together will be positively serene with nothing but the seabirds to obstruct the sunset that will surely steal their breath away. He kisses her forehead and hugs her close, his guiding light within the storm that had been brewing since his childhood. After all those years of rough seas at the hands of his father, things were finally settling into an even keel.

Marinette learns the ins and outs of sailing quickly, securing lines and watching for traffic as they navigate along the seaboard of Saint Raphaël . Jibs and boons soon become a part of her vocabulary, and once they've successfully moored in the neighbouring marina, Marinette feels like she's run a marathon.

"That was exhausting," she groans, slumping into the cushions on the sundeck.

Adrien beams, having barely broken a sweat. "Come on; I'll make it worth your while."

Hauling her back onto her feet, Adrien leads her down into the main cabin. All clean lines and warm teak, Marinette leaves her duffel bag on the sofa and explores the spacious interior with curious eyes, carding her fingers through the decades old fashion magazines stacked in a woven basket resting on the floor. He leaves her to explore and hauls their luggage and a cooler down the ladder, filling the marine fridge with fixings for their first dinner outside of Paris. It's peaceful, with nothing but the sounds of the waves to keep them company.

The lights are warm and low in their galley kitchen, a cozy escape from the endless vistas of rocky crags and pastel-orange buildings whose narrow streets spill into the sea. Their table is just large enough for two wicker placemats and a bottle of Mouton-Cadet; old vases filled with seaglass and shells rest on every side table, their edges wrapped in nautical rope. By the counter, Marinette grates a snowy pile of Pecorino cheese over a mound of steaming spaghetti while beside her Adrien grinds fresh pepper into a ramekin, his stomach growling after an afternoon spent at sea. A comfortable silence ebbs and flows between them as the evening tide laps against the hull, drawing them towards the tangy, indulgent nest of cacio e pepe they made together.

Marinette wakes the next morning to the smell of fresh coffee and a deftly wrapped gift on the bedside table of their lavish master cabin. Slipping her bare legs across the silk sheets as she sits up, she opens her present and plucks one of her own Chat Noir inspired creations from the tissue paper along with a note attached inside.

Care to go for a dip with me, M’Lady?

Marinette snorts and ties the black and neon green bikini up at the neck and hips, leaving a few very tantalizing strings to pull should Adrien let his feline instincts get the best of him. Goodness knows he wouldn’t be able to resist himself, what with the way he could hardly keep his hands off of her last night while they were trying to find a deck of cards in the saloon. She glances at herself in the mirror to wipe the sleep from her eyes and quickly fastens her hair into a loose ponytail, ready to tease her husband senseless.

“Welcome to Cannes!” he announces as she emerges from below deck, mesmerized by the morning sun illuminating his blond hair like a halo. He’s gorgeous in every sense of the word, thoughtful and generous and unfailingly kind, and even in his darkest moments, he never ceases to steal her breath away.

“It’s beautiful,” she whispers, hooking her fingers into the belt loops of his chinos, “but not as beautiful as you.”

A ruddy flush blooms across his cheeks, a constant victim to her soft-spoken praises. “I can hardly compete against you, Buginette, especially when you’re wearing that.”

“I don’t know...” She grazes her fingernails against his bare chest and smirks as the familiar rumble in his sternum kicks into low gear. “I think the sun suits you.”

“Enough to consider moving down here for good?”

Marinette shrugs; keeping their lives rooted in Paris has been a point of contention between them since the arrest of his father. “Not permanently, no, but I wouldn’t protest if we vacationed here more often.”

“I’ll keep that in mind next time you overwork yourself,” he responds, closing his eyes as she continues to explore the chiseled planes of his abs. She’s always been gifted when it comes to distractions and this morning is no different; like wayfaring on a starless night, she’s always been the beacon to guide his way. “Now, I thought I invited you up here for a swim?”

“You did.” Marinette steps back, giving him the merciful reprieve he’d needed to calm his beating heart. “And it is kind of hot up here.”

His grip on the ship’s wheel tightens. “No thanks to you.”

“Easy there, Captain Kitty.” Marinette smirks, flicking the golden bell sewn to the bridge of her bikini top. “Race you!”

“Hey!” he gapes at her, scandalized. “I still have to drop anchor!”

Marinette giggles as she zooms past him, leaping off the back of the boat with delight. “Last one in the water has to make breakfast!”

Meandering through the Medieval streets of the old city, Marinette and Adrien pause to catch a glimpse of Villefranche-sur-Mer ’s idyllic harbour. There’s an enormous cruise ship dominating the horizon and Adrien is thankful that they’d brought their disguises in tow. No one has recognized either of them with the way they’ve camouflaged themselves in their floppy beach hats and oversized sunglasses.

Marinette spends the afternoon popping in and out of boutiques with turquoise shutters, snapping photos and picking up little trinkets along the way. They stop for lunch at a peaches-and-cream couloured bistro nestled against the water’s edge, its open windows basking the sunlit stone walls with salt-scented air. Adrien joyfully devours his meal, a simply grilled loup de mer with fennel and lemon, while Marinette chatters over a bowl of Niçoise octopus salad that she had been eager to try since spotting it on the chalkboard menu outside.

“It feels weird, not having them around.” Adrien balances a piece of julienned fennel between the tines of his fork. “It’s the first time I’ve taken my ring off in ten years.”

“I promise you, Tikki and Plagg are appreciating their vacation too,” Marinette assures him around a mouthful of cherry tomatoes. “They deserve a break after what happened. We both do.”

Adrien nods and is quiet for a while.

“When I was a kid, I used to watch the cliff divers jump into that cove,” Adrien mentions as they sail by, pointing towards a sharp craig jutting from the coastline. “I always wanted to do it myself. Maybe I will.”

“You’re free to do whatever you want now.” Marinette smiles into the wind, the skirt of her sundress billowing up passed her thighs. “So chart us a course, Captain Kitty. Where are we going next?”

“First, we’re stopping in Èze .” Adrien brushes his bangs from his eyes and relishes in being at the helm of transience. “There are galleries all over the place that I know you’ll love. And we have a dinner reservation. I thought you’d appreciate the view.”

Marinette lowers her sunglasses. “I like the view here just fine, thanks.”

“I could say the same thing about you.” Adrien smirks and snags her by the hips, easily hauling her up onto the dash of the cockpit. She squeals as he savours the salt on her skin as he plants a kiss on her knee in mock apology. “There. Now I have you right where I want you.”

She kicks and he dodges easily, catching her foot with lightning fast reflexes born from being merged with the Black Cat Miraculous for so long. It’s a familiar song and dance between them, a playful contest sparking in their eyes as he peppers kisses along her ankle, her calf, anywhere he can reach. He stops just shy of the constellation of freckles at the hem of her dress and makes eye contact through his lashes, flashing her a mischievous Chat Noir smile. “I wonder if you’re ... ticklish?

Marinette shrieks as Adrien starts tickling her toes, running his fingernails up and down the arches of her feet. She’s tortured him a thousand times by attacking his sides when he least expected it so he figures it’s about time he seeks revenge. “Adrien! Stop!”

He doesn’t, of course, and chooses to memorize each and every facet of her beauty instead; her smile and her pained laughter, her marks and scars from the final battle only a month before their wedding day. “I’m never letting you go!”

“You’re going to— stop it! —have to if we ever want to get to Èze .” Marinette manages to wrench her ankle free and hops down from the ledge, landing easily in his outstretched arms. “That is, unless you want to crash.”

“If we shipwreck,” Adrien bends low and devours that little spot on her neck that makes her weak every time, “promise me you won’t hog the whole door?”

Marinette bursts into laughter. “Are we seriously going to have this debate again?”

“I’m serious! Jack could have totally fit on that— mmpf! ”

Cupping his cheeks, Marinette hurriedly kisses away the space between them and silences his long-winded debate once and for all. It’s an effective way to shut him up—all things considered—and an astonished gasp spirals from his lips as she hoists herself up his body and brackets his hips with her thighs. She claims him, covets him, her tongue sweeping across his lower lip, and he’s helpless to her siren’s song as he braces her against the cockpit’s controls and clings to her like a drowning man.

“Alright, you win.” Breathless and lightheaded, Adrien pulls back after a while just to soak her in, to remind himself that he’s married to the most beautiful woman in the world. He gazes in awe as she recovers, her flushed cheeks and parted lips swollen and wet. Adrien is drawn back in like a magnet, kissing her with every intention of stealing her breath away.

She buries her hands in his hair, her nails gently scraping against his scalp as Adrien all but melts in her embrace, groaning with pleasure. He deepens their kiss, and Adrien feels drunk with his desire to claim, their passion speaking more than words between them ever could. Every gasp and moan conveys their everlasting partnership and the terror of nearly losing one another in the whirlwind. Shell-shocked and injured, they still held their wedding ceremony, even as the fallout had tugged at their ankles, gossip and chaos pooling around their feet. Together, they’d inherited an empire he’d never wanted in the first place, thrusting them into a world unprepared and raw with nothing but each other as a tether in the storm.

“I love you,” she murmurs against his lips, her heartbeat hammering a tattoo inside her chest. He can feel it against his own, fast and strong and wonderfully alive. “We’ll get through this; together.”

Later, as they draw nearer to the charming port town of Èze, Adrien draws her close and hopes she never leaves his side. “Where to, Miss?”

Marinette smiles. “To the stars.”

Nothing comes so abundantly as time when you’re sailing through the seemingly endless vistas of the Med. Their honeymoon stretches on for longer than a week simply because it can; he owns their floating home-away-from-home and she’s working remotely, snagging a Wi-Fi signal whenever they’re in port.

Neither of them seem to be in any hurry to leave the solace of the French Riviera behind. It’s where he’s feasted on fresh seafood and felt better than he has in weeks. It’s where they’ve kissed and made love under the stars a thousand times over. It’s where he’s confessed his doubts about living in Paris and where she’s supported his struggle to leave his father behind.

They’re moored in Antibes tonight and the skies are awash in vibrant pinks and apricot. He drizzles balsamic vinegar onto a shimmering pond of Italian olive oil; she wears hair pins with flowers on them and pours wine like an expert, heedless to the way he’s staring at her like she’s his only source of air.

“I love you,” he whispers. It’s enough.

TwstOBer Day 29

For TwstOBer Day 29 prompt: IGNIHYDE, from @raven-at-the-writing-desk‘s prompts found here. All Prompts: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31

Jade and Floyd glanced around the Ignihyde lounge. It doesn’t take long to hear the telltale sound of the gears whirring to keep little Ortho Shroud afloat. He’s humming to himself, flitting from table to table, dusting and clearing it down, keeping busy. It only takes a moment for him to realize he isn’t alone.

“Ah! Floyd Leech-san! Jade Leech-san!” Ortho chirped excitedly.

“Hey~ Clione-chan~” Floyd’s cheerful voice rang through the lounge, waving at the little one. “I see you’re flying again, did you get bored of the feet we got you?”

“What! Of course not! It’s just easier to help out around the dorm when I can float! I still walk when I want to outside!” Ortho’s smile was bright and cheerful, the pinnacle of innocence. “What are the two of you doing in our dorm?”

Jade gave him a polite smile, “Well, I am only here to discuss something with your Dorm Leader on behalf of ours,” He glanced over at his brother, “And Floyd felt like joining me today, it seems. I sure didn’t invite him.”

“Ehh~ Jade, you’re so mean.” Floyd pouted and shooed Jade away lazily. “You can go see Hotaruika-senpai, I’m going to stay here and play with the little Clione~”

“Fufufu, I do hope you enjoy yourself, Floyd. I’ll be back in a little while.”

As Jade made his way towards the recluse Dorm Leader’s room, he could hear Floyd’s ecstatic laughter coming from the lounge, as well as Ortho’s own timbre of elation. He knew that Floyd had brought a few magazines on his favorite types of sneakers, all the more to let the little one look at all the possibilities, and enjoy his legs more. Jade gave a silent chuckle. He only hoped that his mood would stay well long enough for him to finish his duties.

He knocked on Idia Shroud’s door, lightly, calling out. “Idia-san, I have a message for you from Azul, can you come out for me?”

…..

There was only silence on the other side of the door, so Jade pressed his ear up against the door, curious as to whether he had possibly come when the seemingly agoraphobic had actually left his room- but no, he could hear the sounds of the computer pings from inside, he was playing his usual favorite game.

“Idia-san?” Jade repeated, to no avail. He pressed a hand to his chin, a light smile on his face. He raised his voice deliberately, “Oya, oya. It is quite unfortunate that Idia-san isn’t here… Whatever shall I do with this bag of sea-salt candies? It seems I’ve come all this way for nothing…”

…..

After a moment, the door quietly slid open, only enough for a single hand to stick out, a pale hand reaching out. Jade audibly chuckled again at how easy it was to get him to open the door, and grabbed the door tightly, forcing it open a little more. Just enough to poke his head in.

“Hello, Idia-san.” Jade’s smile, backlit from the hallway against the darkness that was from inside the room. Idia shuttered back, away from the door that his taller junior was curling his fingers around. “I’m sorry to shock you, that is not my attention, fufu.” Idia pulled up his hood over his head.

“J-jade-shi- what do you want-?” He stammered, his eyes wide before the grinning mer-eel.

As if he hadn’t just intruded on Idia’s on private space, Jade casually pulled out a small notepad and flipped through some of the pages, finding his place. “Ah yes. The Mostro Lounge has recently been attempting to be seen on a larger scale, and we think that your expertise will be quite helpful with the customers.”

“E-expertise! No, I can’t talk to people-” Idia shuddered, trying to find a way to escape from his own room that Jade had slinked into. His voice lowered, almost inaudible. “.....I don’t even want to be talking to you right now-”

“Oya oya, no need to be so frightened, Idia-san.” Jade gave another hearty chortle. Somehow seeing his senior so terrified amused him further, allowing his job to be that much more entertaining. It made his decision to take this errand that much more warranted. “We only wish to request your artistic skills. Perhaps we could collaborate with you, where you draw something for us. Something that perfectly encapsulates the heart that is the Mostro Lounge. I’m sure with your expertise in sketching, you’ll be able to blow away all future possible customers…”

Idia glanced at him from inside his hoodie, his eyes narrowed and skeptical. “A-and what do I get in return?”

Jade’s eyes glinted maliciously in the room, the golden hue of his left eye somehow brighter in the dark room. A low grumbly laugh escapes him. “In return, Idia-san? In return, perhaps we continue to keep the little secret that we learned about you from our last encounter.... when you decided to deny your own brother the glee that is legs. I’m sure that everyone would be exhilarated to hear, Idia-san…”

“Hiiiii~” Idia whimpered, pulling his hoodie up past his nose again. “No, don’t- don’t tell anyone about that secret- I’ll…. I’ll draw something if you guys just…. Keep that to yourselves….” His eyes shifted to the ground, muttering once more.

“.....Ahhh, of course they’d hold this over my head for so long, this is why everyone says not to trust Octavinelle, I’m going to be trapped forever, aren’t I…?”

“Did you say something, Idia-san?” Jade asked, cocking his head, his smile a little more dangerous than Idia was willing to test.

“Hiiii~ N-no!” he said, “I’ll work on something for you, Jade-shi~” he said, trying to shoo Jade out of the room. Jade gave a small head bow and moved to depart the room.

“Oh yes. I almost forgot. This would be for you.” Jade said, pulling out a bag from inside his jacket coat, those sea-salt candies that he had teased him with earlier appearing almost out of thin air. Idia’s face changed from fear to surprise to a sharp-toothed grin in one smooth transition, his hands tightening around the bag. “I look forward to working with you, Idia-san. Fufufu.”
