Day Four - Five Billionaires and No Wives

Virgil woke in bed the next morning with no memory of how he got there.

“Good morning, Virgil.”

“John?” His brother was sitting calmly in his pyjamas several beds over. Virgil blinked. He hadn’t drunk that much alcohol last night had he? Last he remembered was lying on the grass with... “Did I fall asleep-?”

The door slammed as Gordon strode in, interrupting the quiet. “Under the stars, bro, snoring like a freight train. I wanted to leave you out there. Would have had more sleep if we did, but goodie-two-shoes Johnny here had us carry your butt to bed.” Gordon had obviously been up early and was dressed in his swimwear, a towel slung over his shoulder. “I’m going down for a swim, wanna come?”

Virgil just stared at his little brother, his pre-coffee brain struggling to put that rush of information together.

Gordon blinked. “Okay, I will ask you that question again later, post-coffee. How about you, John? Want to do some floating Earthside?”

John tilted his head in acknowledgement. “Sure. I’ll see you down there shortly.”

Russet brown eyes darted between John and Virgil. “You gonna keep an eye on this one? I haven’t seen hide or hair of Scott yet, Alan’s run off with Elspeth, and Sam and Liam are heading out with me.”

“I don’t need babysitting.” He had enough neurons to put that sentence together.

Gordon snorted. “I remember saying exactly the same thing a couple of months ago and you picking me off the couch anyway.”

“You did need babysitting. Still do.” Virgil threw off the covers and found he was still dressed in the shorts from yesterday, but his shirt was missing. Okay, his brothers were the best.

“Yeah, well, it took three of us to pick you up and carry you up here.”

“Shows all three of you need to work out more.”

“Or you need to eat less.”

“There is nothing wrong with my weight. It is all muscle.” He patted his belly and suddenly remembered why that wasn’t a good thing to do. Ow.

“You idiot.” Gordon was smiling and frowning at the same time.

John rolled his eyes. “Okay, Gordon, I’ll meet you down there in about half an hour. I think our big brother needs some ‘sitting’.”

Virgil glared at both of them as he rolled to sit on the edge of the bed. Gordon was still grinning when he made his way over and offered his brother a hand to pull him upright. Another glare, but Virgil didn’t say anything, just took Gordon’s hand and pulled himself up with a grunt.

“Yep, definitely need to eat less.”

“Gordon-“

“Yeah, well, I’m off for a swim.” He patted Virgil on the back. “Have fun on the flying fox, bro.”

Wha-? Oh, the zip line.

Virgil was not fast enough to clap his brother around the ears and Gordon danced out of the room laughing.

“Little shit.”

John snorted. “Yeah, but you’ve got to love him.”

“Hmm, maybe.”

That only prompted John to snort again. “You need a hand with your shower?”

“No, I’m good.”

“In that case, I’ll go find us some breakfast.”

“Coffee?”

“And, yes, Virgil some coffee. Now go wash up, you stink.”

“Hey!”

But his smart-ass brother just pinched his nose and made a point of walking past the end of Virgil’s bed and bee-lining for the door.

“You’re an ass.”

“Hee-haw.”

-o-o-o-

A shower freshened him up and Virgil finally communed with his coffee out on the green. The day had woken with blue skies and glass ocean. They had been so lucky with the weather it was almost too good to be true. The pessimist in him idly threw up the idea of a cyclone between here and Tracy Island and he had to mentally kick himself for even thinking of it.

Because of his recent surgery, Virgil was unable to go swimming, but he chose to climb down to the beach with them anyway. John hovered like crazy because despite Gordon’s smart ass remarks, there was no zip line down to Oneraki Beach and Virgil found himself climbing down a quite steep embankment. But he took it carefully and made it onto the sand in one piece. If he was honest, he was not looking forward to climbing back up.

Fortunately, Scott was nowhere to be seen, so when he took a much needed seat in an offered deck chair, only John was there to hover over him.

Despite his brothers’ concerns he wasn’t stupid and he took the time to rest in the chair and give his hampered body a chance to recover.

“Are you sure you are okay?”

Virgil glared at John.

His younger brother held up his hands defensively. “Okay, okay, I get it. Since you are absolutely fine, I’m going in for a dip. Yell, if you need any of us.”

The glare became flat-eyed. “Will do.”

“Good.” John spun on his heel and jogged down the beach to the surf.

Trust him to have the last word. John wasn’t one to be trifled with. All the brothers knew that. While Virgil might dismissively tell Gordon or Alan to shut up, you never did that to John. You’d be risking a communications blackout isolating you from the rest of the world. His little brother was smart and kind, but he demanded and got the respect he deserved.

Not that Virgil would ever give him any less, it was just that John was a quiet one and the quiet ones were the dangerous ones.

Gordon, Sam and Liam were already in the water and it was abundantly clear that Gordon’s assessment of Sam’s surfing skills was accurate. The man fell off his board more than he stayed on it. He was even wearing some kind of specialised artificial foot, but it didn’t seem to help.

The amusing thing was that he didn’t seem to care either. He appeared to be having the time of his life either on the water or upside down in it.

The laughter bouncing across the waves from the three men was infectious and Virgil found himself grinning and wishing he could join them.

John found himself a quiet area of the beach and began swimming laps beyond the swell. Virgil might have been worried about sharks out here, but they were all familiar enough with the marine environment and Gordon was pedantic about their shark deterrent wrist bands.

Virgil, of course, was wary of his. He might not be a shark, but the wristband was a creepy thing. There had been discussions.

But today he didn’t have to worry about it, because he couldn’t go in the water anyway.

For a while, he just sat and enjoyed the morning. There was barely any breeze, the ocean was as glass as an open ocean could get, he had nowhere he had to be, nowhere he had to rush. Hell, he was tempted to snooze right there and then.

That thought snapped him out of it. He hadn’t had any decent exercise all week. He was turning into a slob. Now would probably a good time to get started on a little rehab.

He eyed the far end of the beach. A walk couldn’t hurt could it?

Pushing himself carefully out of the chair and catching his footing on the dark volcanic sand, he stepped carefully down into the damp zone and started off at a gentle pace.

He had no plans to go any great distance, just towards the end of the beach. He wouldn’t be out of sight so he wouldn’t be breaking any rules of wandering off without an attendant.

A step or two more and he carefully reached down and removed his sandals.

His feet sunk into the fine dark sand and he closed his eyes for just a moment revelling in the feel of it between his toes. How long had it been since he had stood on a beach? Too busy. Too long.

He let all the breath out of his body and gently inhaled anew.

Wriggling his toes, he grinned to himself and started walking.

-o-o-o-

Gordon was having a great time. Sam and Liam were just good guys to mess around with. They had lent him a spare surfboard and they spent some time chasing the quiet swell. Sam spent most of it under the water, but since that was his native environment, he didn’t appear to care.

Liam had much more skill than Sam on a board and between him and Gordon, a good-natured rivalry began as to who could catch the most waves.

Liam won, but Gordon was laughing anyway and, to be honest, he wasn’t really trying. He was just enjoying the freedom and the lack of responsibility.

John joined them after a decent number of laps and topped all of them even without a board. His red-headed brother knew how to manipulate his body in a low-G environment and bodysurfed like a dolphin.

It left Gordon grinning. Everyone underestimated John...to their detriment. Even Gordon forgot what his big brother was capable of. Space wasn’t just about books and science, there was a definite physical aspect and John worked hard to keep himself healthy.

“John!”

Gordon looked up at the beach to see Scott and Mel standing there, gesturing them in.

Virgil’s deck chair was empty.

Gordon had seen his brother come down with John. Where was he now? A glance up and down the beach found it empty.

What the hell? He didn’t climb back up the hill by himself, did he? Considering Scott was on the beach with that expression on his face probably struck that option off the list.

John, the smart ass, made it to the beach before any of them. That was something that would have to be fixed in the future. Gordon was an Olympic gold medallist and he had a reputation to maintain, after all.

“Where’s Virgil?” Scott was not happy. “He’s not answering his comms.”

“He went for a walk.” John pointed down the beach.

“Well, then where is he?”

John glared at his brother before walking over to the bag he had brought with him and yanking out his own comms. “Eos, location on Virgil, please.”

The AI rattled off coordinates which, when Gordon ran them through the map in his head, equated to...

John pointed down the beach. “He’s that way.”

“Then why can’t we see him?”

“How the hell should I know? Go and ask him.” John matched Scott’s glare with his own. “You do know he is a big boy and can look after himself?”

Scott actually growled at John before spinning and stalking off down the beach.

Oh dear, Virgil was in for it when he got found.

John glared after him a second before turning back to his comms. “Eos, Virgil’s medical status?”

“Last readings all within normal parameters, however, approximately fifteen minutes ago, I believe he took off his shirt, and hence the sensor net in the material. I still have locator and proximity readings, but vitals are patchy. What I do have is within normal tolerances, however I do not have enough readings for that summary to be conclusive.”

John rolled his eyes. “I’m going to kill him.”

“C’mon, John, Virgil needs a break. He only went for a walk on the beach.”

“Tell that to Scott.”

“Scott needs to...” He trailed off at the expression on Mel’s face. “Oh, you didn’t.”

A total lack of innocence appeared on her face. “Didn’t what?”

“Oh, for god’s sake, Mel, really?”

“What?”

Gordon groaned. “It’s the dimples, isn’t it.” It wasn’t a question. “The goddamned dimples.”

Mel shrugged. “He is a great kisser, too.”

Gordon stared at her. “Ergh.” A frown. “I thought you were all about Virgil.”

She shrugged. “He wasn’t all about me. Scott is, uh, nice.” The smile on her face crept up into her eyes.

“Argh.”

“Why, Thunderfish, I didn’t know you cared.” Her grin was devilish.

“Umm...”

But she thwacked him on the arm. “Don’t tie yourself into knots, fishy, I know you’re all moony eyes for the Lady Penelope.”

“What?!”

John snorted beside him and Sam cracked up laughing.

“And don’t you worry your little fins about me and Scott. Was only a little fun.”

“Aaah! I don’t want to hear it.”

Mel laughed at him and drew him into a hug. “You are a laugh, Thunderfish.” She patted his back. “Though I have to say your brother was much happier before he was unable to locate Virgil.”

Gordon snorted. “Scott doesn’t come as a single option. You want the Commander, you’re gonna have to share him with his four brothers. Particularly, Virgil.”

She smirked and put on a seductive smile. “Hmm, all five of you? Really, tease a girl why don’t you.”

He stared at her in shock.

John cracked up laughing and Sam appeared to need resuscitation as he fell all over Liam who was trying to hold both him and himself up at the same time.

“Gee, Fishy, I didn’t know you came in that colour. Did I embarrass you?” Her arm around his shoulders wasn’t helping.

He glared at her. “I didn’t know you had it in you, Mel.”

She snorted. “I have a whole lot in here you don’t know about, Thunderfish.” But she was grinning at him. “Now I have to go keep both your brothers within sight since they have decided to break the rules.”

Gordon stared up the beach and sure enough, there was no sign of them.

A shrug. “You can trust them.”

She reached in and tapping his cheek gently, whispered, “I know, but them the rules.” Her eyes were smiling at him. “He really is a great kisser, you know.”

“You know, Mel. I can live without knowing.”

She giggled. Giggled! He had never heard Mel giggle! And wandered off down the beach after his brother.

John was still grinning like a loon.

Gordon glared at him. “Shut up, John.”

John’s grin just got wider.

-o-o-o-

It was quiet on the beach. After Virgil got far enough away from his brothers and their friends, the natural sounds of the environment took over and Virgil connected with it.

The tension in his shoulders loosened, his back relaxed and he let out a sigh.

The water hissing onto the sand, the breakers cracking the glass ocean as the swell reached the island. Birds, so many birds, many of them the familiar sounds of home telling him how close they were to Tracy Island.

He found himself longing for that familiar environment. Grandma, Kayo, Brains muttering in the background, Gordon splashing in the pool, Alan’s computer games, even Scott on the phone to Tracy Industries. The sounds of home.

But for the moment Raoul had to suffice.

And it was beautiful.

The beach was a decent length, backed by a rise that led off into the mountain that made the island. The fine sand was soft and curled about his toes and plants crawled down the hill to sprawl all over it. Pale morning glory flowers dotted the foliage. The contrast of light flower, green leaf and dark sand was quite striking and Virgil found himself composing a painting as he stopped and stared at the plants.

A thought and he reached into his pocket, grabbed his phone and spent the next few minutes photographing enough stock for a future painting.

Once he decided he had enough, he took a few shots of the incoming waves, the shoreline and the seascape. So much inspiration.

He continued walking and kept his phone in hand just in case. A large seabird flew off the ocean and up the slope and disappeared into the dense forest.

Hell, even the trees were like those on Tracy Island. Brilliant crimson anthers cascaded over evergreen leaves. A tui peered at him from a low branch and screeched at him before flying off.

He let it soak in.

The beach curved inwards slightly and he followed it around only to find the oddest sight.

Steaming hot water was dribbling from the sand bank. A cloud of barely condensed fog rose from it and the dark sand was stained with mineral deposits.

A hot spring! He crouched next to it. He had seen this volcano erupting, grabbed Melissa Fisher and her team off the volatile chunk of rock. Yet here it was quiet, beautiful and full of life, its potential energy little more than a trickle onto sand on a wave sculpted beach.

He reached out a hand and gauged the heat. It was cooling a little as it sputtered onto the shore and he could touch the pool it created. A convenient rock provided a seat and he sat down, letting his feet drop into the warm water.

His shoulders dropped and his eyes closed.

A sudden need to feel the sun on his skin and he threw off his shirt and dumped it, his shoes and his phone in the foliage beside the spring. The warmth from the sun and the hot water, the roar of the breaking surf, he closed his eyes again and just felt.

The eroded volcanic rock under his fingertips was rough, but as equally warmed by the morning sun as his skin.

It just felt so good on everything.

He sat there for some time, just experiencing it. His mood shifted from one of contemplation to one of joy. Everything was in harmony. The ecosystem hummed around him, the planet playing its eternal concert, a thrum that got into his bones.

A thrum.

A wordless thrum, in his bones, in his incisions, in the soles of his feet.

He opened his eyes and stared out at the ocean.

A spray of watery breath broke the surface beyond the breakers.

A moment later it was followed by another, smaller spray.

Virgil stared, and, climbing to his feet, stepped out of the steaming pool and walked towards the breaking surf.

As his feet touched the churning water the hum intensified, vibrating deeper with an unheard melody.

He kept walking until the water was breaking across his thighs, his clothes soaking wet.

The swell dipped between waves and a dark grey and white head emerged out of the water, as if staring at him. A smaller head did the same a moment later before both once again disappeared below the surface.

A joy washed through his body, the sea singing to him like it never had before.

An exhaled breath, his heart in his throat.

“Well, hello.”

Avengers:Endgame Thoughts !!SPOILERS!!

Just some random thoughts and questions and such about the movie. There are spoilers so…don’t read if you haven’t seen it and care about spoilers. I tried to organize it a bit but we all know that’s impossible.

Okay so..I’m not the biggest fan of the Russo Brothers and what they have done with their Marvel films. There have been some improvements, and some things that just can’t be helped and I just want to make that known first. I don’t really hate any of the films they made, they are definitely enjoyable, and fun, have great moments.

I’ve been a bit critical about how they used some of the big storylines from the comics in the films, because they never felt the same (they never can honestly, comic books and films are different formats, different ways of storytelling) but this honestly is the closest to the annuals. This is the closest to waiting an entire year after reading comics each month, to the big huge event. It feels as big as those. Civil War didn’t to me, Age of Ultron didn’t, Infinity War kinda, but this. This felt huge. Especially when actually watching it.

This is a huge fanservice film. You could probably enjoy it without any prior knowledge, or without seeing all the other films, but god, it’s better if you do. Soooo many little throwbacks and easter eggs and payoffs from the earliest films and the comics. So I highly suggest the other films, I think every single one film has some sort of tribute in this one. (I’m making a list of references and such so I’ll see)

So one of my biggest gripes out of the way…the Joe Russo cameo. It completely pulled me out of the film. The scene itself could’ve been a nice little thing to see what Steve has been up to during those five years but…just watching and listening to what was mostly Joe Russo talking and inserting himself into the universe…eh :/ It’s not like a Stan Lee cameo, he didn’t have a hand in creating these characters and we don’t owe the Russo Brothers as much as we owe Lee and Kirby and Simon and Ditko and Bendis, etc. I think his cameo in Civil War and Winter Soldier was better, he barely talked in WS and not at all in CW, was barely on screen, it was fine. I just felt it was a little too much… His cameo was longer than Stan’s.

Also that was their way of making the “first openly gay character in a Marvel movie.�� they even said that, “We felt it was important that one of us play him, to ensure the integrity and show it is so important to the filmmakers that one of us is representing that.” which...is really a cop out I feel. That LGBTQ representation, the smallest line of being on a date, could’ve easily gone to Valkyrie/Brunnhilde’s character, seeing as Tessa Thompson says her character is queer and played her that way (take one look at Tessa’s or Brie Larson’s twitter or some interviews, it isn’t hard to see they support it), and Tessa is actually Bisexual in real life. But whatever I guess...

Though it was definitely funnier than the other movies the Russo’s have done, and DEFINITELY prettier. I’ve had a big issue with the color grading and scene composition in the Russo’s movies. Say what you will, Joss Whedon knew how to make a comic splash page translate to screen, but the Russo’s did...the airport fight scene. The scene’s in their films that did have great composition were pulled straight from the comics (like Steve Vs. Tony, Shield vs. Repulsors) Okay. But, in Endgame it definitely looks better. There are memorable scenes. There are shots that I thought...okay thats art. The end battle had some shots, like Thanos in the foreground pointing his sword, and his army behind him. When Tony was looking out of the Benatar and saw the glowing light that is Captain Marvel. When Okoye, T’Challa, and Shuri walk out of the portal to the final battle, it’s a bit hazy, almost dream like, gives the feeling of Steve seeing them and not knowing whether this was real or not. The colors still look a bit dull in some scenes, but at this point it seems like the Russo’s are resigned to gray and mud and mess to get that gritty “realistic” vibe that for some reason is what people want and not the escapism, fantasy, cosmic stories that comics can be.

I did really like the small nods towards how relationships formed or degraded throughout time, or how people changed, especially during the five years we didn’t see. We got a little nod towards Carol and Rhodey’s relationship from the comics with…a nod and a good luck and a lingering look. Natasha calls Rocket fluffball, I think it was, and says she gets e-mails from him. Bruce and Natasha are on some sort of not dating but close friends terms after hardly interacting in Infinity War. Definitely acknowledging Age of Ultron and not just making it a joke and trying to push it aside. Nebula and Rocket seem to have gotten closer, probably due to all of their friends dusting. Rocket and Bruce seem to be on some level of friendship, or at least acknowledge each others connection to Thor. Okoye calling Natasha, Nat. Carol has been coming to earth somewhat regularly. Tony and Nebula playing the paper football game, her giving him the food even when he offered it to her, (It reminded me of the blueberry bit in the first Avengers) working together to try and get somewhere. TONY AND MORGAN!! He raised a whole five year old kid. He definitely seems like a stay at home dad, especially since Pep is the CEO of Stark Industries.

It’s really nice (and sad) to see how some people’s lives moved forward. How people tried to move on, how all these different personalities coped with the loss. Seeing Cassie has aged was definitely a favorite. Cassie has thought her dad was dead for five years, and for Scott he was only gone for five hours, but he comes back to his little girl as a teenager. At the end, when we see them together with Hope, we know that Scott now has to go forward knowing he missed five years of his daughter’s life, and is probably going to try and make the most of it. Maybe that means giving up Ant-Man, or having her join in (we need Stature, I mean come on, we need another young avenger). But it was nice to see that time didn’t just stand still until the Avengers found a fix. It kept moving forward.

I wish we would’ve gotten a bit more of Wakanda/Wakandans. Okoye was still alive, and I think M’Baku survived the Snap as well, but I don’t think we saw him until the final battle. We only got a couple glimpses of Wakanda. Which I guess makes sense because with both T’Challa and Shuri gone, Wakanda needed leadership (though I’m unsure as to whether Ramonda dusted as well), but it would’ve been nice for Okoye to maybe be a little involved in the efforts to get the stone, especially considering Wakanda is so advanced. Even without Shuri there could’ve been something they could contribute. T’Challa really had like one or two lines basically but okay.

I sorta didn’t like Thanos dusting away. I was a bit off put at the beginning when Thor cut of his head because to me, that was Nebula or Gamora’s kill (though seeing as both Gamora and Nebula seemed somewhat sad after seeing him die (Gamora after she seemed to kill him in IW and Nebula after Thor went for the head) MCU Gamora and Nebula might not want to do that). I understand it though, Thor was angry. At the end I was hoping that Thanos wouldn’t dust so we could get that kill, and sort of mirror Tony’s fear of being the only survivor, but… I guess it’s the writer’s poetic justice. It’s not bad, but I just kinda hoped they would go a different way with it.

I love when the music cuts out and Quill is just dancing and singing to himself. “So he’s an idiot”.

“I bet the raccoon didn’t have to climb a mountain.” “Technically he’s not a raccoon you know?” “oh whatever he eats garbage.” Are they talking about Rocket...or...Thor?

That girl power scene? We love it. “Don’t worry” “She’s got help.”

I love how they pass around Tony’s Gauntlet like a football, trying to get it to the van. But when Peter had it and was thrown to the ground and was curled up clutching it, I was so prepared to cry.

Same with Rocket trying to protect Groot.

No vision. I didn’t really find myself even thinking of him all that much during the film. We got a line or two but that’s about it. It makes me wonder about the ‘WandaVision’ show and whether that title was just to throw people off, or if he is going to be in it.

I’d be really interested in seeing more of what happened during those 5 years. Maybe I just want to see more of Tony as a dad? Maybe… But to see how everyone tries to move forward. Like what does Cassie do? Did her mom and step-dad dust to? Was she alone? Did the Avengers check on her? I think Bruce mentions he spent 18 months in a Gamma Lab. I would love to see how he came to terms with Hulk. I would love to see how the Asgardian’s settled. Etc. I think there are some interesting stories there, maybe for future shows or comics or stories.

CAROL DANVERS / CAPTAIN MARVEL

I love that Carol Danvers had a small moment/lingering shot when they were looking at everyone who dusted and she saw Nick Fury. Another little nod towards a relationship without being overt and having her mention to characters how Nick Fury was a close friend. I mean that was the reason why they came out with the Captain Marvel movie before this. So the audience members who saw both would understand Carol’s role, powers, motives, and relationships before so they wouldn’t have to squeeze it all into this movie.

I also forgot that Captain Marvel was even in this movie after the last time they showed her in the beginning because I was so wrapped up in everything else, so when she showed up at the end I was genuinely surprised and excited! They really hyped her up to be the most powerful hero, but didn’t overuse her or make her OP at all. They gave everyone else their time knowing that she has the future MCU ahead of her. I think they spent a good amount of time on the original avengers as this really was their send off, knowing the rest of the characters have future films/shows to shine in. (Which kind of makes me forgive the lack of Wakanda..but still…)

The look on Thanos’ face when Carol showed up, amazing. Her exchange with Peter? Pure and beautiful. And that little *dink* when he tries to headbutt her? Pure comedy.

Thanos pulling the power stone out of the gauntlet to use against Carol was...forgive me...a power move.

THOR ODINSON & LOKI LAUFEYSON

I know a lot of people think Thor’s mental health/PTSD was just played as a joke, but I don’t think it was. I mean there have been times they tried to sweep Tony’s mental health under the rug and times where (maybe just the fandom) treated Tony as a villain for how it showed itself.

Thor didn’t want to think about it. Thor was done. He wanted to drink and forget. He didn’t want people to talk about Thanos, or Loki, or anything that happened. He made a new home for all the Asgardians and then retreated into himself. When we first see him, Bruce stops and asks Thor if he’s okay and tells him that he was in a similar dark spot as well and that Thor was the one who helped him out. It’s a sweet moment, yeah it’s sandwiched by some jokes, but it's there. As is the moment when Thor talks to his mother for the last time. Frigga gives him piece of mind. Let’s him know that she knows what her fate is, that it isn’t his fault, which is one weight off his shoulder. She lets him know that he doesn’t need to be whatever he thinks he needs to be, just to be who he is. He doesn’t need to be an Asgardian King, or whatever else his father wanted, if that's not what Thor wants. Being himself is enough to be worthy. So he fights that final fight (completely okay in the fact that Steve is worthy as well, even saying he knew it! So he must’ve knew Steve was pretending not to be able to pick it up all the way in AOU), he makes Valkyrie/Brunnhilde King/Queen of Asgard, and he goes with the Guardians, because that's where he wants to be. He’s not being who he is supposed to be, but who he is. Which seems to be someone who wants to have fun and save people who need saving. Which I think is a nice mirror to Chris Hemsworth’s relationship to playing the character. He said that he prefers the fun, comedic Thor that Taika made with Ragnarok, and doesn’t as much like playing the uber serious Thor from previous films. He even said he’d be open to more Thor movies if Taika Waititi was directing.

While I hope we see Thor in Guardians Vol.3, and his story didn’t feel as final as Steve and Tony’s did, he did come full circle. From fighting tooth and nail to be a worthy king, to finally accepting who he truly is and being comfortable with accepting that. Sort of mirroring Loki.

Speaking of Loki...His scenes in this movie were definitely more humorous than anything. I know people wanted a better end for him. I’ll be honest, I liked his end in Infinity War (though I did believe he might still be alive because he didn’t revert back to his Jotun form when he died in IW). But for all the same reasons as Thor. He started feeling tremendous envy and hate for his brother and father, felt the need to prove himself, though he took a very different route than Thor, he got to a point where he accepted who he truly was. A Jotun, and an Odinson, Thor’s brother, Prince of Asgard. So to me, yeah it would be nice to see a different ending for Loki, (if they do bring him back I feel they either can’t kill him or have to kill him for real), I’m content with his entire arc.

BRUCE BANNER / HULK

Bruce has finally come full circle as well. He started off wanting to actually kill himself because of the Hulk, but now he has found the ‘Professor Hulk’ middle ground. He even says he sees it as an ‘evolution’ (X-Men reference/hint maybe??). After Ragnarok and Infinity War, something during those five years lead both Hulk and Bruce to accept each other. Just imagine how happy Hulk was when those kids came up asking for a photo. It’s no longer “Earth hates Hulk”. Hulk is a hero, he has fans! Young kids who aren’t scared. Bruce doesn’t have to be scared of running rampant and out of control and hurting innocent people. He doesn’t need to be locked in a cage. He can be completely who he is without holding back.

Bruce admitting that he tried to bring back Natasha with his Snap…oof.

NATASHA ROMANOFF / NATALIE RUSHMAN/ BLACK WIDOW & CLINT BARTON / HAWKEYE / RONIN

I actually really liked the beginning and how they handled Hawkeye’s story. Him helping Lila with her Archery and her walking out of frame, then when it cuts back to where she should’ve been only some dust particles in the air? Amazing, show not tell. We didn’t need to actively see Clint’s family dust away (honestly it makes it sadder that he didn’t see it either, didn’t know what happened, they were just gone). And we didn’t need a scene of him talking about it. We just got into it. The Ronin story isn’t my favorite but I’m glad too much time wasn’t spent on it and only the parts that mattered were addressed. That his family is gone and he’s angry. Natasha still cares about him deeply and has been looking for him.

Also..who puts mayo on a hot dog?

Natasha and Clint’s relationship is one that I really like. It’s this pure friendship and salvation from the beginning. Clint was the one who made the call to not kill her, but rather show her a different path. In Endgame, Natasha does the exact same for Clint. She takes him from being a ruthless assassin, angry at the world, to fighting for the good guys again. They are family. She is Aunt Nat to his kids, friends with his wife. She knows about his family and ‘secret’ life when no other Avengers did. It’s because of him (and Nick Fury) that she has a family not only in them, but the rest of the Avengers. But it just makes stories like Infinity War/Endgame and Civil War sadder for her because, almost all the other Avengers have a life outside of the team, and have families to go to, but not her. So when they break up, and aren’t talking, she is left alone. No wonder she stays at the compound. When Rhodey is telling her about Clint and she starts crying, it’s so sad, because he was her family and he just left.

Natasha and Clint literally fighting over who gets to sacrifice themself? Big oof. Natasha really makes me like Clint’s character in the films. And as much as I love the “refund theory” of Steve returning the soul stone to Vormir and getting Natasha back, and I would love a better send off (like with Thor) I think her story has really come full circle.

One of the biggest themes I noticed in her arc throughout the films is choice. When she was in the Red Room, she had no choice but to do what she was told, because of what happened there she doesn’t get the choice of having children or not. In Winter Soldier she felt like she felt like the choice of fighting for the ‘good’ guys was an illusion. Etc. But here is the biggest choice she can make, and she decided that she’d rather die so everyone else, everyone she cares about, can have a chance. She wasn’t going to let someone else make that choice for her. She did it despite Clint’s protest. She finally found something, someone she chose to die for. And the imagery of her on the ground not only mirrors her position in Tony’s vision from AOU, but the pool of blood draining from her is almost literally her getting the red out of her ledger like she mentions she wants to do in Avengers. “I’ve got red on my ledger. Now I need to wipe it out.” She has finally atoned for all the bad she has done.

I know she didn’t get a funeral scene or a big send off, but I think that was as to not overshadow or take away from Tony’s. Which is sad. Maybe we will get a better send off in a different film or show. We did get those lines from Clint and Wanda about hoping she knew that they did it, that her sacrifice wasn’t for nothing. Which is small, but it is the person who cared about her the most.

Also...did no one tell Clint and Natasha that they would need to sacrifice someone to get the stone? Surely Nebula knew...

STEVEN ROGERS / CAPTAIN AMERICA

“I can do this all day.” “Yeah, I know.” Even Steve is tired of himself.

Scott: “That’s America’s Ass.”

Steve, later, looking at his own ass on a past version of himself: “That is America’s Ass.”

My mind immediately when we heard Sam’s voice over Steve’s comm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uB1D9wWxd2w

Also on that note... I absolutely love that Sam was the one that Steve choose to carry on Captain America’s legacy. In the comics both Sam and Bucky take up the mantle and I was sincerely hoping Bucky wouldn’t in the films. At least not at first. Bucky has so much interesting story to explore from when he was the Winter Soldier and still has so much healing to do from not only that time, but everything he was thrust back into when he was still settling in Wakanda..and being dusted. In the films, Sam is perfect to be the Captain America of modern times. He knows how the modern world works, he’s been in the military, dealt with war (both earthly threats and extra terrestrial), and I feel he’s emotionally/mentally stable enough for it. Hell he ran a veteran support group which inspired Steve to run a support group for survivors during the five years after the snap. Also, I don’t think I need to get into why having a Black/African-American Captain America in these times is amazing. I would love to see him in a movie, but if we get a live action show on the Disney+ streaming service, I think that would be great.

When they showed someone sitting on the bench, I was like okay that’s Steve. But how skinny and small he looked I thought it was going to be Pre-Serum Steve...but no, we got old man Steve. Which surprised me, it shouldn’t have but it did, because when he left and they couldn’t bring him back I leaned over to my sister and said “he stayed in the ‘40s”. But I had like 1000 thoughts running through my head every second of this movie. (except when the theater fell silent when Tony...ya know) It sorta reminded me of Logan for a hot second...

I’ve seen some people say, "It's not in character for Steve to live a life and not fight".

Every single movie has been building to Steve getting more and more tired of fighting. First he sacrifices himself for everyone else. Then he is woken up to fight in a war, and a world, he barely knows anything about, and starts seeing that privacy and freedom might not mean the same things they use to. That the governments meant to protect the people have even more secrets and lies, and are becoming more violent and ruthless. His whole vision sequence (and basically entire arc) in AOU was about how he needs war and to fight but how he doesn’t want that to be the case. He wants to go home. He wants the 40s. He wants Peggy. He wanted Bucky. He wants a family and a life. It hints that sometimes he may feel he doesn’t deserve it, or that the time for that has passed.

He didn't leave Bucky behind, Bucky knew full well what was happening and didn't seem too bothered. He knew and was happy that Steve had this chance. He loves him and wouldn't keep him from that. More than likely Bucky sees a future for himself as well, just not in the 40s. Bucky could have went back with him if he wanted to. But he didn't. Sam even offers to go back with Steve, Bucky standing right there and Steve says it's okay. Bucky doesn't protest. Bucky is smiling. Plus we don't know exactly what happened. Maybe Steve would have still fought here and there, maybe he did help that timeline/universe Bucky. He did still have the shield with him. Or maybe he was a house husband/dad while Peggy worked. Whatever he did he was clearly happy and content with all his choices and no one protested.

I actually really love this ending for Steve. He finally gets to rest. He finally gets the woman he loves. He can be content knowing the world is safe and that there are others willing to protect it. From the skinny, sick, kid who was always searching for a fight and felt he was (or had to be) alone in the world. He found a family, his love, a life.

TONY STARK / IRON MAN

I really love that for the scene in the 70s they used James D’Arcy to play Edwin Jarvis. He played Jarvis in the Agent Carter show, and I think most people who watch any of the shows know that the shows are payed dirt in the MCU movies. So as someone who loved that show, loved the characters and actors, seeing that was great! It intertwines the show more closely to the films, and it was nice for Tony to see the other man who raised him even for a second. Yeah it would’ve been nice to see Paul Bettany, but I feel he is more connected to J.A.R.V.I.S Tony’s A.I rather than the actual person of Jarvis.

I love that Tony gets a reunion/closure with his father (similar to Thor’s with his mother). Before his own untimely death, he gets to talk with his father and really see things through his eyes and learn what his mind set truly was. Now that he’s a father himself he understands a bit more the struggles Howard had, he knows Howards own self doubts. That despite everything Howard cared, and that Howard’s own father was cruel to him. And they get to share that last hug and is able to thank him! Just like he wanted to in Civil War. He gets to say I love you, and thank you for everything.

Peter says he “got all dusty. Then [he] must’ve passed out”. So like...no time passed for those who got dusted in the snap...

I was sorta hoping Tony would wield Mjolnir as well, but he didn’t :/ but it’s fine. He doesn’t need it. He wields the Gauntlet/Infinity Stones.

Something Kevin Smith brought up that I hadn’t really thought of was that Tony was completely set. While he definitely had regrets and felt guilty, he had a good life in front of him. He 100% could have just lived the rest of his natural born days out with his family and been as happy as he could have been. But seeing that picture of Peter, and knowing all that was lost, feeling guilty, and just being the self-sacrificial man he is, risked it all for everyone else. Knowing it could go wrong, he still did it.

Tony’s scene towards the beginning was the first time I almost cried. After he gets rescued, and they are talking in the compound. He is so skinny and in a wheelchair and hooked up to the IV. Cap starts talking, like he always does, and Tony just is not here for it. This is exactly what he said was going to happen, this was the culmination of all the PTSD and anxiety he has had for 8 years. It happened, he was right. No one wanted to listen to him. People gave him so much shit for Ultron and the Accords and literally everything that he has ever done, and this happens and he (pardon my language) snapped on Steve. It was heartbreaking. Because he tried so hard to prevent it. Steve told him they would lose together but he was alone. He watched the kid he cared about disappear in his arms, had no idea who else he cared about who could’ve done the same, and he was alone in space (well Nebula was there, but..he didn’t know her really, they were forced to get to know each other. Remember she showed up when they were already battling Thanos). He was suffering, believing he was going to die. No oxygen, no food, no water…and when he gets back Steve just wants to jump back in, and get information out of him? No. He has had enough. Steve lied. Sure maybe he didn’t mean to, but he said they would work together and then Civil War happened. He made a decision in that movie to be on the opposite side of Tony. I’m not saying that Steve wasn’t justified in his actions in Age of Ultron, or Civil War or anything after, but just that from Tony’s perspective, Steve was continuously putting other people and things in front of him. He probably thought that Steve would make an effort if they were truly friends, and if he truly cared Steve would’ve done more to salvage their friendship but didn’t. I have a whole thing with Steve and how he acted but I just know Tony was hurt, and one person he thought he could turn to, wasn’t there. And the line he closes out his rant with? “No trust, liar.” That hit like a ton of bricks.

When Tony asks Dr.Strange if this was the one they won, Strange says he can’t tell him or it won’t happen. But later Tony looks at him and holds up one finger, telling him this is the one. He told him because he knows that Tony already knows and has come to terms with what has to happen. Tony knows he has to get the stones and Snap Thanos away, knowing that it could kill him. So Dr.Strange just affirmed it for him. If he would’ve told him earlier, than Tony might’ve thought of a different plan, or thought he could make it out, maybe he would’ve gotten excited and cocky. That also means that from the moment Strange looked into the future in IW he knew Tony was going to die. Yeah he knew Thanos needed the time stone because the Snap needed to happen in the first place for them to reverse it, but he also knew Tony was going to make this sacrifice, and couldn’t die just yet. I always thought that Tony was the key after Infinity War, but now it explains why Dr. Strange’s demeanor changes after that.

I almost cried a lot during this film but I actually cried during Tony’s death and funeral scene. Bookending the entire saga with “I am Iron Man”. How Rhodey goes up to him, then Peter (Tom Holland never fails to make me cry when he’s playing Peter), mirroring the last moments in Infinity War, “We won. We did it Mr.Stark”. Then Pepper goes up to him, and has to look at him and he seems almost...catatonic. He isn’t responding, just staring at each of them. Pepper has to watch her love, her husband, the father of her child, die. But she still reassures and comforts him, telling him he can rest now… and i’m about to cry just writing this omg… Then the light of the arc reactor blinks out and you know for real that he’s gone. Tony leaves a message for them knowing his fate, book ending the film from the message he was leaving at the beginning of the movie, to the message he’s leaving for them now. He loves Morgan 3000. Just knowing over the years, Morgan and Pepper will go back and watch this message. Morgan will grow up knowing her father saved the universe with his own hands. They will probably have suits and old tech around that she will be able to look at and play with and tinker with (because you cannot convince me Tony Stark’s daughter won’t be as much of a tinkerer as him). The “Proof Tony Stark Has A Heart” display is sent adrift in the lake outside their home, Little Morgan sitting with her mom. And every person who Tony has come to know and love is watching. Millions more probably mourning all over the world (and in our universe as well). Tony started as an arrogant, genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, rich kid with more brains then he could handle, and become the self sacrificial saviour of the universe. He’s been through the worst things, kidnapped, tortured, betrayed, watched people die in front of his eyes, get hurt because of him, etc. But always was looking for a way to make things better for everyone else. He is 100% the heart of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Robert Downey Jr. is the heart of the MCU. Him and Jon Favreau and Kevin Feige took a chance on a movie that was guaranteed to do the best in 2008, improvised through a film with little to no script and built an empire. Robert is Tony Stark in sooo many ways other than both having rich and famous dads. Tortured, and regretful pasts that they rose above. I cannot sing the praises of this character or this man more. So I will end it here. It will sad to go forward without the character, but we really won’t be. Tony and Robert are cemented in every Marvel film and every film to come.

Thank you to all the creators, crew, directors, writers and actors. Robert Downey Jr., Kevin Feige, Jon Favreau, Stan Lee, Joe Simon, Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, etc. <3 Thank you!

davids fam after being put through google translate

Wendy Stein heard the phone on the other side of the door. She knew that she was going to work, but it was not fun; Moreover, it looked like a very intense conversation

"Look," said Stain. - I can do this to my brother! It will be allowed, is not it? He was there. "OK, I see what I'm doing."

Wendy took steps to open the door and soon came back to work. The room came out with a long face and not more. Vandy does not say anything

Finally Vendee can not stand - Wall, what do you say?

The window has been linked to the window. "Sharman's son and daughter are found dead. Beoren and Mabel are relatives, but they can not live there.

Wenini opened her mouth and tried to understand what she had heard. What will help?

Then he thought a little.

"In the room," he said quietly, "call me." Wendy tried not to travel by phone, the man replied, eight years older than Vandy,

"Who is this?" Ask your voice.

"Hey, this is Wendy."

Vandy heard his mind. Have you decided to help the camp? We can help you as a consultant!

- What? Wendy added the idea. In fact, it is not. I need help.

"What?" The man asked

"This is a small story," Wendy asked for a moment. "And there can be a lot, but did you know how you said you want to go? David, we can help you

For example, to say that the outcome of Nervos

But this is not at the same time interesting, his relationships with his own house, because he is Neil Marcus Tullius, a 13-year-old doctor, Doctor comments for a better world, and although it was another five years. Carl's Uncle, it's a good thing, that's a wonderful thing, a horse, his values and a mabel that he gets out of the vehicle, trying to understand what happened.

Dupas looks at the animal. Knocked on the door where the rest of the life of the campaign. And sister, and that those who meet him for the rest of his life in the care of you. He has a deep atmosphere

It is strange that he and the Mabel immediately alerted him to opening the door and waiting for the wart on the day. And it seems that the man has a green top and jeans and T-shirt. They are distressed and worried

"Hello!" He says. "Come on me, I'm waiting for you!"

And when he came to the person's small house, two Doppia made Maybel, and his bridge speaks his mouth.

The girl said to her mother: "My name is David." "I'm happy to visit you here."

Look at each other and look at Mabel and the eyes and follow David's drinking, lying down, Abel.

During the flight he sees something dope, green and yellow couple her husband "David?"

David: "Well, Cicero?"

About 1 year ago was created

"Well, why is it right?"

"The company what is it?"

The Crash is that it looks a certain person

"Here, it's a good game!" David said, "It's been long!"

"Really?" Asked. "What is that?"

"It's for you with stock!" David explained: "I have simply said to splurge last year, and if I am less like you Doppia Mabal and I have the lives of camps, they take them and camps, why do you have memories? lo, and when my friends, and now, see, so many children do as "

And on that path the human remains in the attempt, to do with laughter, to laugh at the laughter of a habit, to decide Fallopia and to stay one: to stay alive, and to begin it is not satisfied.

SCOOP is a funny funny cat a cat. Estimated the first old.

"Star" Mabel rose. Sitting on the other hand, as the bell is too low, Mabel Leo. "Is not that something that is always a cause?"

Gold Temple. Mabel are sure this is a good time to do it? So, it's early. '

'I am,' says that Mabel something that looks like the final horn. "He returned to his home in the evening."

A player has been selected head and the bottom. "When you hear it?" If you do not, so that it would not be? '

"Now you get a new chance long as you know how to spend."

Mabel, higher, and the crime was committed, and the Easter season a month by courses of the forces, that were with David, and when he was in his journey is always the first record of the matter in the Wall Greater. That is not possible, David until the end of the day.

"I think that it is enough that mistake," said Dipper. But he left his bed, and he stood there. "But I can not give what you have done? "

"PFF, do not be stupid, 'and Mabel, because he thinks he does all the guitar, and he knew what he was doing." Since its place. "

Head big head. "What are we waiting for?"

"He took it from there," Cable works. "It's also it's easy to just go missing." Five kids do not like me? '

Mabel has acted against the Lynx to hide their shoulders. "Mabel" Even if he is not there? "

Mabel looks at the bags. "M."

Big Dipper and Mabel welds to stay in the room. "Oh, my mom, Mabel, he thinks that the only effect it had enacted the law literature!" And been broken in pieces: for he knows that it is more that we are not one-dimensional small part of the reason for setting aside all! "Do you want to?" "Do not be angry! ' Mabel and do not need to come back! '

He was at the grave of Mabel, the brother of the same thing. "It really goes Amina? Go."

In the council of the people, understand the collection for the first item, so that it is a this for a short time, were banished from every extremity of the domestic. Which are covered by the rule into the space of the kitchen on the right hand does not stop at the many pictures. Cicero, also in the camp of the hastily occupied a plain of the singers was really consulted. In the first picture of the child was a little hill, and immediately called the old boy out with him. Big Dipper is another kid in the picture. Do servants judges, and they wanted to fly very wise lacked of David's wife learned from the last two terms. The Ducks are said to Gwen in his name. Only a few years in a labor camp, there is no surprise if he can not yet citizens. If we open the bidding.

Mobile phone call the Big Dipper fears. And a desk, and go from there. "Hello?"

"Hello, Little else asked mortal anxiety. The Big Dipper in the name name is not true, but the first thing out of tolerance." I'm the oak tree, even if the shots catch a few pieces Mabel, that's fine, "temple Panik .

"Early the next morning, David!" SPACE accept it on behalf of David's motives. "I forgot what?"

"Sciisti?" David asked. "You can not change me? '

"Uh," said Dipper fast ", it's my sixth sin!"

"Well, I tell you, she had a sixth." That reminds me of my Camper summer, Chucky-name '

"You need to have milk which DIIPPER parties are busy. That part of the right wing.

"Oh, you want me to cry? "

"Oh, it, work for us? '

"What?", I think you need to mirror the night of the night. '

"But we can not make soup! I could make a movie and eat a meal - it's not Sunday!"

Do not listen to David NEAP actions. "Oh, I'm fine," I have a few glaciers. " This is the first home to tens of minutes. '

The Dipper and Mabel runs, as always in the heart. "Mabel haste! '

"Uh, the Big Dipper," said Mabel in fear: "We have trouble."

Mabel worked broken wire. And it will be worse than anything possible.

Mabel, what are you doing?

At present Mabel said. It is a faith, neither shall the trees. "I do not know, I'm not alone, and do not have much, because you are right and because they do not know what to do?" Mabel shows the title of the guitar and the noise.

Press and writes. Then a sister. Who will decide which highlights?

Senator PBELL CIRCUIT

Subscribe to each other and watch right. And have been staring at it.

When I heard two things knocking on the door, I finished it. This kind of thought is like a thorn in lightning. After that, he heard David's voice "Big Dipper! Is Mable a door?"

Guitar, keep breathing and Mabel Leo. He stood up and walked to the door and David became more laughter than before.

"Guess, kids? I have ice cream! Who is ready to watch a movie?"

The Polaris just stared at him. He didn't know what he was talking about. David obviously felt that something was wrong.

"Oh, what have you done for a long time? Do you know what is really bad?"

Mable walked into the room and pulled the guitar into David's face. He is thinking about this and knowing what is going on.

"David," said Mabel, snoring. "I may have accidentally ruined the guitar."

David went to observe the silence. For Pegasus, it seems that everyone is standing there for three hours, or even a few days. In short, there are some people who like books with Mabel: he starts to cry.

"David, I am sorry! This is my fault. He walked into the room because they wanted to use it to play the guitar, because I love you to listen to it? I didn't deliberately break it, I swear! I am just if you want to Try, if you are not so stupid now, stupid people don't have to use the brakes and continue to use it? I am sorry, I know I will not blame the Big Dipper! Breaking on you!"

David was silent for a while. Then, quietly whisper, "Children, help bring things."

This silence is delayed. Never started your life according to your own way. Nothing can fear or warn Weirdmaggedon is not satisfied with David and silence. In silence, more often, I feel that I have committed Bootes. From the inside, it will not be the face of David's soul.

Then, when everything came from their territory, he looked at me, David and the children, in my eyes, then said, "Well, if you can't be better than starting and repairing. Who wants to help?"

He slept in the silence of the twins. BEAM blinks. "Wait, you are angry with us!"

"Oh, how can you do this? Of course, the wires make me feel sad, but sometimes it's hard to fix it. I will never give birth to your two. Now, overcome it."

This is a family of two, wake up in the morning, wake up, laugh. The ice cream area is owned by himself. Mabel has a guitar string on his bed and then goes to Mabel's hand to help the guitar.

"As David said, 'Let both of you use a song I wrote to help me. Because this is a camp and a camp in Cicero. Do you thank the two for their help?"

Mable and the Big Dipper looked at each other and filled their mouth with cream. Praise, "Yes. Of course. Never!"

Today we look at the Big Dipper windows was a little bit worried. Mabel has been no check local high school today, it may be one of the best schools. The Big Dipper expected to be better, try to stay calm, but they do nothing to help him focus. Mabel on his left hand and put on a sweater, and a calendar of farmers to listen to the tape and David sat in the front seat while driving. I hear the Big Dipper is very useful for the nerves.

"How can you believe that David is said to be the usual excited." We can finally visit the highest mountains Gust today? Now, in the shadows of the best ways to remember. It is very difficult to enter the game, but I am with you both very confident after this day that we will be able to get some food? "David stands. When a car is parked.

The Big Dipper all very much. They are not to play the great man, and, in the block of small things for the house of his. "David," he said. "Here we're doing '

"Oh, I did tell you," David said. "We are faced with a young girl was asked. Her parents do not have the time. I went out a few!"

windows knocked rehearsing like armed. Means to the people is thrilled with dark skin black girl and the boy with curly hair and showed the door opened. He was apologetic smile. "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little late."

"Oh, that convenient!" David said. "We are innocent. I, for my children, David and the Big Dipper Mabel. I say hello?"

Mable sent huge waves but a few warm-up Pegasus laughter. The girl smiled. And they are surprised that the Big Dipper connived industry decades. Mabel, nor David. Just him.

"Stacy, I said quietly. He closed the door in the shotgun.

The game is a bit rough visit David and Stacey immediately Mabel and tried to speak. We are able to consider its best attempt to ask the question, "Do you like to camp." "Did you pigs", "What is your favorite flower"

Finally, the family went to high school. It was a large parking lot in front of large buildings and the afternoon of that day is still half full. And when David had the whole car.

"Okay, kids, you remember what you said?" When he reached the front court for. "Keep the best, that a smile and a kind of" three months. "How and where to go. I talk to some of them, and three of the same."

He put. The boys when they look at each other. "We are going to the Big Dipper ,?" Mebour asked.

For the Big Dipper paper from his pocket. He wrote all the information you need in a day. "Our own အရိပ်ကလေး called 618. weekend ..." Big Dipper, narrow eyes. "Ryan grass."

"So you can not find room 618," Mabel said. "I was on the seventh floor bet! Let it be to find where the elevator!"

Before they can not escape Mabel sweater pulled out of the Big Dipper. "Stay at the seventh floor, Mabel. I have two."

"In fact," Stacy said quietly. "There are three".

The Big Dipper to her and she did not know what he said. "I'm sorry?"

"There are three repeated," Stacy was a bit loud. "Page 618 for third place."

"Well you know what? "Mebour asked." In the future the reader? "

"This is my sister." Stacy looked up and said to the feet of it. 'That will graduate into place, you know. "

The Big Dipper shoulder everywhere. "Cool. Let's go to the next named. We do not want to be late. '

As it passed in the classroom, five minutes after Bruno was found. He has brown hair and a small child with tennis shoes in a popular band and baggy jeans, t-shirts. I should not say how they want. And those twins are not shown, but it seems that you do not recognize Stacey.

After the first class does the learning battle seem like "leave"? "Stacey Gardner!"

The Stacye and the browser have heard and reshuffle. And the knowledge that their children.

"Hello, the Nightingale," said Stacey. "Yes, that's me."

"Brilliant", soothe Nightingale. "Who is that friend?"

"The Big Dipper and the Mabel."

"Your parents, your sister, I was employed"

"Ma, how ever."

"Well, I hope it's good." It was always a wonderful student., That is the best, I had come to live with the standards that have expected.

"We don't want to lose Ryan replaces them," he said. And there were a few questions.

"What is?" Mabel. "You can him?" Who is the winter

"Here I did, I did a great deal," said Stacey. I was faster off for the Big Dipper's fortune.

"You know everything, but it's what you think?" BEAM looking. Offulsit Stacey as Augebild.

"The Monster!" A worrar. "It's amazing!" Traum does not function. Every single research in college. Parents always have something that can not come from them to get me. "The Big Dipper can see the trees quickly in its eyes.

Rotate the Big Dipper Mabel. To search for "Brian", he said, said the school plan. "Catch you".

"Ma-"

"Give it!"

She nipples into Mabel, the whole human being. We know Swiss, trees, big dipper and I have returned to Stacey.

"Stacey is good", dipper says. He looked up and looked out, trying to understand what. They cannot, however, derive from it as much as one word is the same. "Stay kind of things. I'm not about what you feel like your parents, but I'm sure they're doing it."

Stacey and calm.

"I am with you in this kind of matter, because it is difficult to find, you want to make an offer on that new one." "Make your way from them." He has no sister.

Stacey laughed. But it is not from the time when he is sure that the Big Dipper. It can be really different. Then, Stacey, an update on the head, face, sadly lies. And once sniffed.

"I can be sad that I am overwhelmed."

"It's good."

Thecece church is to serve, then at one time the waves of the big dipper, and toss it into her with her arm. And it was not careful to go fast.

"Thank you for that," she said. The Hack, and went back and regularly. Find it better. "To our run.

Monique laughed at Pol, who was surprised. He has the face of things more than that. He likes.

"David's mother, all the kids are in the car:" What is this? "

"He's great!" Mabel said. "I don't have car parts that I want to pay with. But forced to start trying to be the person we are "working hard but worth it! '

"Uh! David and his little change "What are you Stacey? Do I love you? "

"I think it's good," he said. It really exists. There is nothing left to thank Stacey for God, withdrawing from her house by the calf The bar closes the door of the ladle house. The contract never saw him face.

"Oh, my taste!" He said. "Make sure you have a Stakey?"

Big Dipper wasn't so obsessed with it because he didn't answer me "Big Dipper! Dippin Secret! Pegasus came to Big Dipper"

"This is our answer," David Calm said. "I mean it's fast, worth it, right?"

"To talk about their wedding day?"

"Oh, come to blur, call him," David said. "No time."

And of course sharp

"Ok, go home," David said. "Almost to the gravity of the philosophy that it does not lead us to go and see what will happen to you. First of all, to our cabin Mystery Mabel. You'll be able to rest with your friends."

"Whooo," Mabel encouraged. "It's time for a new romantic"

"Big Dipper, Mabel and send all the vessels, and go camping and led all! '

The teapot nodded, not looking for a record. "Okay."

"Now, one week, my mentor, Gwen, come here and you and I will go to Caesar removed. The two will be here this summer. I think it's a thought. Well buy the phone and call you and Mabel around 2:30 on the phone every day. In late summer, we will go home "

"I can not wait!" Mabel shouted. "We have had this year SOS! I heard they had a son named Charlie melody. Sometimes Pacific took care of him with money. Images that are sent to me, and now it is cute!"

1 can guess, "he said Dipper", but I think that the summer is getting better and back Michael Ford. "I saw the Big Dipper from the record. Excitusque cheerful." Ford has promised to show me how to make a teleporter "

And David perceived that the fact that the essence of the thing. Fierce courage killed all of his children.

"Hey, David!" Mabel shouted. "I almost forgot! I do Tinder for you!"

David looked up: "What is this?"

"It's a soccer app? Are you meet new people and talk to them! I know you meet new people who have said to anyone you. I will still images and a story!"

David, as I began to cry. "Oh star! Thank you very much"

David secret hut and pulled in three of them. I prepared a sleeping bag and Mabel had her karaoke treatment.

"There will be a lot of fun! But the best part is that you will see along the water again!"

David decades. Mabel told him about her old pig. No doubt, David, if you were not able to keep the pig is eating in the house of the, and Mabel were on the first to exceed himself.

"I gave him Pacifica. He liked it and brought it into the night! I love it again! "

"Now, Mabel," David warns. "Do not be polite to friends along the ba"

Before, when David ran Mabel is at the door of the hut secret. "Hey!" He warned the lungs. "Pacifica, I know there are the best along with it!"

Then he ran down to open the door of his aforesaid house, once Mabel 's great. Mabel and the aside all other matters on his neck.

"Rolled along, I miss you, big boy," said, near tears. "Given the incomplete and I hope Paz, take care of my children."

"Well, I think that" when the voice to protect the door. Pacific made with Kandy and Granada. "You know that it is difficult to buy food for my parents? 1 might have to find something from the sneak"

"Hello Mabel" audible voice Granada girl does David shocking. "We are all waiting for you now going to sleep in the attic"

"Mabel well," said Kandy, a meteor embracing a girl in a shirt. "To miss so much!"

"Oh, I miss him, too!" Mabel said. "To ready!"

The group holding the girl, Mabel, while the speech "Sleepover! Sleepover"

Her daughters also that Sarah laughed to David; and I should like to be good friends. Bootes and looked, and, whom while nibbling the pen. "Well, Little Dipper," said David successfully. "Did we go inside and say hello to everyone I meet can not wait to see everyone should have a chance, as Cicero in the first advisor to camp!"

BEAM followed by David. Soper spoke to the melody. Mabel is about melody holding the baby. David and walk around and say hello.

"Hey, duck!" Soper said. "It's great to you, O Big Dipper, as Charlie Hi!"

Big Dipper looked at the boy who squeaked and smiled happily. The Big Dipper could not help but smile. I heard a small 'awwww' David's shores.

"And now three months old?

"The Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah born while holding Charlie's face." Was the most active age. Do not sleep. '

"Oh, that looks like a group of happiness" David said. "I have the two of you!"

Music chuckle: "Thank you."

Vapor dipper "We're sorry, Soper, Michael and Ford come here?"

Soper, shaking his head. "Sorry, I do not come in time. But it is clear that Michael will be fought. We'll soon come! '

He looked at David, the Big Dipper, who do not speak. But the boy's feet nodded. David harmed. Obviously, with its two great uncle is very important to him.

"Thank you for allowing the two to stay here in the summer." David said in the interview that the Big Dipper, lighter, trying to feel better. "I want to make it. But I am afraid, lest perhaps there be not enough space in the camp. But the next year, can do both at the same time, they came in the first place, and it shall be the Counselor of the"

Dafydd, in the sight he saw, saw a large dip of the room without saying anything. Sylvia and David decided that this was the best at once. But he will talk to Melody Soper

In the meantime, go to Big Dipper's door when it is closed and hit.

"Hello?" Voice of the Big Bear composition.

"Marc Bore Da"

He broke the door and caught Marcus in the eye of Big Dipper.

"Well, he can not take me in."

"What?"

"Come!"

Marcus joined the bathroom door to see the Big Dipper in ordinary jeans and flannel. When the pine tree was still wearing his hat and the cloth was finding stains from many places, Marcus walked around his shoes and walked into the bathroom with a small room.

"Marcus, what are you doing here?" BEAM asked. "Of course, you do not use the bathroom."

"Anyway, it's gone?"

"who?"

"David and catch?"

The Big Dipper from the head of the head was even more confusing and the sound came out of Wendy and emphasized, "No, we camped behind us and I want to share here."

"cach."

"What is Marcus?"

Marcus stops walking somewhere else "David! If you go outside, he will drop a bomb. I ask questions about the camp because she needs to change it! Marcus Dipper won the prize on her shoulder and heard." Can I do it yet? Does it close? This is the only thing for me! "

Marcus is sitting in the corner of her room. It can be cut with the flowers heard by Big Dipper

"I do not know how you can pick up the pole," said Ashton. "And the way they are still not all have to work to change the camp speak"

For the government of the big dipper did not say anything. Both sat quietly before Big Dipper heard: "Big Dipper"

But Marcus apologizes for the shoes "Me - I'll meet you later." Wendy "

Big Dipper from the fluid and running away David for decades "Ready to camp?"

A boy is in the hands of David because he knows he is wrong But they can not show what is not professional. He went out and returned to the car. David sits next to a foothold, behind Big Dipper. He started writing in the newspaper immediately.

David felt the burden of the evil chest. He tried to chat "Happy to be back with anything"

"Bottom" is called the Big Dipper from a distance. The boys say something else. David is trying again

"Your uncle is about to arrive a few days," said David. "Is that fun?

I saw a big dipper looking at David in the mirror. There were many seconds of silence and the slopes slow down. "Infa, I think it will be like that."

Silence When David tried to interview more "Is there anything to wait?"

At this time, a great dipper did not answer him. He looked at David at that time and started writing in his notes slowly.

David was awful. What happened? What do they do wrong? Not only does Boötes worry about him And something is in mind with David, and it's talking about a campsite that will be one of the best

"Well, Big Dipper," David said, getting out of the car, "almost! This is a car that can take us away, so you'll get all the stuff out of your body and" for the Website. bring! When we put him If we walk "

The brown eyes of the shoes seemed to be a great cold, as if they were thinking. It seems to him, seeing it, has a small smile when he sees great things with small.

"Bac Dau, what's wrong?" David asked.

"What?" Leo noticed his eye page. Then he looked, his own comments in his arms. "I'm fine."

"Are you sure this can't be if-"

"No," bounced. He calmed down. "Do it. Yes, David, I'm fine."

But David and chose not to believe in Big Dipper for a moment. The way to supply the trunk of the trunk will be open and a place for both.

If he asked David, she was fair here. He himself is not a small town town, about the gravity he loves her. However, as well as being submitted.

When there was another tent, and put everything at once, a walk through the forest, he took Big Dipper Dafydd Gibbon.

"Now, David says: decide what is best to say," if you mostly go on the roads, especially if you're just walking. But because we know what to do: I think it will be fine. "

BEAM raised his head. "Or it could be a real danger."

"I think we are fine."

"Have you ever walked here, do you know you will become?" Leo seems a little worried; his eyes.

This is David's head. "Well, I haven't come into this animal meat yet,"

"I have to be on the roads," Dipper said. I feel a bit bad for. It seems not Boöte, is it not enough to have a safe position to keep it?

"Very well," David said, not knowing how to respond. "Okay. Probably to go on the roads."

What is the most glorious march by road is. It would be beautiful trees, and with a little fear and I didn't feel the heat was hurt. Thanks to the left. Why do you want to go to the ways of Pegasus.

"We are close to the waterfall," David admitted. He mentioned their skin. "Look! You can see it from here, isn't it beautiful?"

"Below" is called Bac Dau. "That's a nice search."

"You know, going from the power of walking in my memories while camping. She calls me a great friend, Jasper."

"Really?" North Dau said. "What happened?"

"We went to the island to get the branch. When he came back, he fell to a cliff, and that helped him get out. 'Nearly crying. The best day of my life."

"Wow. Come -" Big Dipper prepared. "Did he survive?"

David stopped. Other memories lead to its head. But they were more aggressive, said, trembling, remembering that Jasper had been seen again. I have to cry, really, not that he abstains. It does not go before the North Pole. Not now.

"Yes," David said finally. "He made."

He didn't say anything, because that was the rest of the walk.

The harp and the fire fell. The lion, the decision of Firearm, when he thought to walk the dogs. The surging again after he wrote in the magazine. David decades. It is very easy to understand that a child will be proud very proud.

David was indeed brilliant.

"Big Dipper, writing: What did you do?"

Balance eyes sooner. "I'm really tough?"

"What do you write?"

"The math:" Big Dipper this subject. "Nothing really. Just last summer in the case of those who are for something. But what's just stories. Not too much." Big Dipper is locked, and stood in a magazine. "It's not going to be too late. I went to sleep. Good night. "

"Good night boot" David said. "I have a dream."

But when he left, David was shocked. It is no surprise that the Big Dipper and so close to me today. There is a solecism? What did he do?

The guitar looks down to. After he said no. "What do I do wrong? '

The fire crackled Further, there is no silence. David thinks there is a problem more and more. Mabel, who was a bad man is one thing, the Balance is not obvious. So he returned for the bad?

The guitar without thinking about our own shores. I hope you make the best choice.

David sneaked into the shop to remain silent. Sylvia you sleep in the magazine from its side. Channels to be caught and returned, and went out. He was sitting near the center opened fire. He read his mind in mind, that all of them have to be present as himself in charge.

dear F

This was due in a week. And he was not with David in a few months now, I would wish that there was a short cut. And if I do not know, Bill.

Yesterday saw the other, where the law. Duke is the leader of the organization that may harm my father. And Hurt and David Mabel and many others. I know that this is true, but at times he does not, Remember poverty in the time, which set me. When fear most in life. Consider, in so far as they are to speak to the fact that it's rare they are, and if I ever, Carl Mabel, and do not be from the second. I know that the bill is gone. It is not hit at the end of the summer. Nor did it deter protein.

If David The disadvantage is the reason why tract fall, maybe you do not believe me. We might choose to be quiet and out of dreams.

And I say, maybe one day. But once they do.

Then.

David words. It was tumultuous, and the most pain. Who is Bill? The fraud? The Big Dipper, which shall not inherit? David Ure, fireplace crack crabs and answers them. But not such a bad experience.

David looks back from the magazine. I read more, but comes from him, so that he can not come. The Big Dipper is. The Big Dipper breaks faith. To this extent, all of David, please.

He closed the book on the right trains. The boy was carried out on sleep. David Le airline now start with a little smile to her face. But since he has a lot of dreams.

Fire ordnance.

Never feel bad about ridding your life of toxic people.

One of the hardest things you’ll ever have to do in your life is cut out toxic friends. I did that last night. After one last night of Denny’s late night outing, I figured it was finally time to say good bye to a 7 year friendship.

You may think that 7 years is a long time and believe me when I say it is, but let me also say this, this person hasn’t always been toxic, they were at one point my best friend whom I thought would be my maid of honor at my wedding, the one I’d tag memes on, on facebook.

But not anymore.

Let me tell you how it started.

Back in 2013 my ex and I had been dating for almost 3 years and due to some childish behavior on both our parts (mainly mine) he decided to end things with me. I was devistated, heartbroken; I truly believed that he was the love of my life at the time, but due to my own emotional and trust issues, I pushed him away.

This person did all they could to make things better for me, but there wasn’t much they could do. But I do appreciate their efforts.

Fast forward to when my mom was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, this person acted as if they really didn’t care. I was too emotional about my ex and my mom being diagnosed with cancer was the cherry on the top. I later found out that this person talked about me behind my back to my co-workers about ‘how annoying and whiny I was being about my ex.’ This person hadn’t been in a serious relationship since high school and even that relationship lasted like 3 months? Maybe longer, I don’t really know, so they really don’t know what it’s like to have the person you thought was your soulmate, tell you they didn’t love you anymore.

This wasn’t the first instant that this person made it clear of their feelings about me talking about my ex. It was my coping mechanism. I realize now that yes, I was annoying, but I was going through a really tough time. It was either talking about my ex or the fact we weren’t sure if my mom was going to survive (she did; almost 4 years strong next year!)

I had gone with them to get their hair done with them and their grandmother. Their grandmother had asked how I was dealing with my break up and I told her the truth. I was hurt, but I still loved him and believed that we would eventually get back together.

This person scoffed and rolled their eyes. I hadn’t even brought up my ex. I wasn ‘t even going to bring him up. Someone else did and they had the audacity to do this. Maybe I did over reacted, but after years and years of abuse from their mother and siblings and listening to the same stories and drama every single time we talked, I still sat there comforting them and giving them advice. But they couldn’t even give me that.

Fast forward a few months and she moves into the same apartment duplex as me. I should mention now that when she moved in with our other friend, she didn’t have any money saved up; at all. She made him pay the $800 lease with the promise of paying him back.

Things are great, we have a few issues here and there. We make jokes about people we’re friends with, ya know whatever.

Come May, a mutual friend of ours comes home from Boot Camp and his family and a mutual friend of his and mine go to the river bottoms and I ask when I can come and see him. He asks me to join them so I do.

When I get back, she starts being really passive aggressive on Facebook, upset that she wasn’t invited too. I had no control over it. I wasn’t even going to go until they had asked me. It’s not my fault that she wasn’t invited. I believe we ended up getting into a fight, but that’s whatever.

A few more months pass and my ex and I become friends after not speaking for a few months. She starts online dating and starts seeing this guy. He says he’s gonna come down for her birthday, but then never does. She’s heartbroken and we feel horrible.

Her roommate also tells her that he has feelings for her because its been eating him up inside. SHE THEN SAYS PASSIVELY AGGRESSIVELY TO ME ON FACEBOOK MESSENGER THAT HER BIRTHDAY IS RUINED BECAUSE HE TOLD HER THAT.

Fast forward to like August/September.

I start getting these random ANONS on tumblr. I have no idea who they are but it’s nice getting Anons who aren’t mean or malicious. But then things started getting a little flirtatious. Again, I have no idea who this is.

My friend then starts putting pieces together and it turns out to be her boyfriend from the dating site she was on. She then waits a week before telling me, all the while this time, she’s acting like a cold cunt to me.

It’s not till her roommate tells me what’s going on and I profusely apologize because had I known it was I wouldn’t have said anything, screenshotted the asks and sent them to her.

So after that blows over we’re best friends again. A few months pass and I move in with her and our friend. One of our friends she’s kind of into, she flirts with him whatever, then she starts seeing this guy named Cole.

My ex and I are messing around and whatever.

I had plans to go out to dinner with my friends and then go to a club. I thought it’d be great. My birthday is the day before Halloween, so I wanted to go on my birthday.

The night of the dinner, she gets mad at me when I buy myself a drink WHEN SHE TOLD ME SHE WAS GONNA BUY MY DINNER AND I ASKED HER IF I COULD HAVE A DRINK AND SHE AGREED.

She also had her boyfriend join us which was never actually asked. Oh side note here, she NEVER cleaned our room. Ever. It was always a disaster. So whenever she’d have her boyfriend over, she’d clean the whole house. But never lifted a finger when he wasn’t around. AND she’d never tell us when he was coming over which wasn’t fair because he would just be there and we would have no notice.

The night we went to dinner, my friend and her best friend asked if I wanted to go see a movie, so I agreed, no biggie, it was a lame movie, but the memories were good.

So my plans for Halloween get ruined because she doesn’t want to go and I wasn’t gonna go without my best friend.

A few months pass without much drama going on, my ex and I stop being friends because of some drama and ‘he just wants to move on’ whatever on my part. I start going on dates and whatever, nothing pans out but for the first time in a long time, I am really happy

Except for when our other roommate starts dating this girl and decides that it’s more important to buy her $500 worth of stuff for valentine’s day, rather than pay the PGE.

So we’re out of power till I get paid at the end of the week. And I can’t even pay my portion of rent. Thankfully, our landlords were really understanding and told me I could pay them when I got paid next.

During this time, I find out that my toxic friend, hasn’t been helping with the PGE. Which is shit. Like how do you not help pay the PGE? It’s ridiculous.

That shit blows over and we move on with our lives.

My ex starts messaging me and it’s hectic because he won’t leave me alone. At some point toxic friend tells me that he showed up to our apartment asking if they had seen and told me to call him, so I eventually do (believe me these are important bits)

Come April, the Friday before Easter; Good Friday.

I wake up to my phone going off, thinking works calling me in. I find four missed calls from my brother and three from my mom.

Two voicemails from both of them.

First one is from my brother crying, I can barely understand him.

Second one is from my mom. “Hey Jeannie, it’s mom. I just left your dad at the hospital when he went into surgery (my dad has having a heart procedure done where they put something around his artery to help it from skipping a beat? They had to go through his thigh I don’t remember what happened.) I’m heading home. Patrick said Sasha had a seizure and I’m gonna take her to the vet, give me a call.”

My cat Sasha, whom we had had since the day she was born, was turning 21 that May. The month before she was given a clean bill of health. She was going blind, but other than that she was completely fine.

I call my mom back and she picks me up. We take my cat to the vet and as I’m sure you had guessed, we put her down. It was the hardest decision I had ever had to make.

So when I get home after crying my eyes out because I am absolutely heartbroken because she was my cat, her boyfriend is there. She just looks at me like I’m a fucking moron for crying. My cat had just died and she couldn’t even say that she was sorry. But she had her boyfriend over for the weekend. Again without giving us a heads up.

A couple months passed and I’m at work after having a shitty morning when one of my co-workers comes up to me and says “Taylor’s not coming to work.” I’m like haha okay, funny, she’s on her way now. He then tells me no, she’s been hit by a car. I ended up receiving a phone call from her telling me she was on her way to the hospital because she had indeed been hit by a car.

This accident led to her being unemployed because she wasn’t able to work with a broken back. No big deal, that was understandable. We told her to call Aflac (where we were working offered this to us) and to call disability so she could continue to pay for rent and utilities until she was either cleared for a job or was given money from the lawsuit.

Fast forward to a couple of weeks later, this was in May, come June? I get home to be told that we’ve been given an eviction notice. We’re scrambling trying to figure out what’s going on.

Turns out we were almost five months behind on rent. All of us were responsible, I think Josh and I were like...a month behind? I think when we had to pay our PGE in February, I forgot to pay them. But it also turned out that Miss Taylor hadn’t paid since the beginning of the year. So, Josh and I ended up making a deal with our landlords that since we were only a month behind with our portions, if we asked Taylor to leave they would let us start over fresh.

So we did. We told Taylor she had to leave that she couldn’t stay with us anymore. She also went behind our backs and tried having her boyfriend pay her portion so she could stay there and we’d be kicked out. Our landlords told her no. Flat out no.

It eventually go to the point that we had to get my mom involved to kind of put things into perspective for her.

So she moved out.

Months passed, she eventually paid both Josh and I back for the lease and the PGE she owed from February. She was only going to pay Josh $200 dollars of the $800 she owed him and I went off on her.

She went out for her birthday with some mutual and not so mutual friends of ours and tells me that one of her ‘friends’ was sitting there just talking mad shit about me and I’m like wow, cool. (this is important.)

For a few months, things were okay. I moved out of the apartment and with some other friends.

There isn’t much drama involving her other than her making fun of our mutual friend and his girlfriend who is physically and mentally disabled. So things happen, we all hang out, go to the Zoo and things finally feel like they’re back to normal.

Comes August. At this point, I’m still on OKCupid and Plenty of Fish since my ex and I are just not working out still and I’m just ready to move on. As I’m scrolling through people, I see Taylor’s boyfriend Cole, whose moving to Washington within the next few weeks and was in San Fran at the time. I sit there wondering if I should tell her whats going on

I mean, I’m beating myself up because I don’t want to be that friend, but at the same time I’m just like I would want her to do the same if I was dating someone who was active on OKC.

So I wait for her to be home and I send her screenshots and explain to her I wasn’t snooping, I was just trying to look out for her.

This naive little girl then messages me and tells me that it’s because his OKC and Plenty of Fish (I had to make sure it wasn’t just a coincidence) were hooked up to his Facebook.

I had been active on both sites for MONTHS at this point, this was the first time that I had seen his accounts on both pages.

So I chalked it up as whatever, if she doesn’t want to believe the cold hard evidence, then that’s on her.

A few weeks later, they broke up ‘because his friends didn’t want her moving in with them’ (supposedly she had talked to his roommates and they had told her this)

We don’t really talk much, whatever, she’s heartbroken after a few weeks because she was in love with.

I invite her to my birthday/Halloween party where she tries to start shit with my roommate after he makes a comment that was in no way directed at her. She tends to have this constant need to be the center of drama (like Madison but that’s a story for a different day)

Fast forward to 2017.

About May? I think, I find out she had been seeing Cole since Thanksgiving and she had told everyone else, but never thought to tell me. Her reasoning was because she was trying to find the courage to tell me.

This was also the day that I found out that she thought I had told her this because I was jealous and that I wanted to ruin her relationship. I honestly didn’t care because let’s be real they were together for almost two years and he hadn’t said ‘I love you’ because of his last ex. Okay.

I also called her out because our ‘mutual’ friend (I put quotations because she’s my friend not Taylor’s, she absolutely hates her now) tells me that Taylor was talking mad shit about me too. So I called her out on that and she tells me it’s because we weren’t friends at the time because we kicked her out.

That whole entire time we were on the outs, I defended her to everyone. My parents, my friends, my co-workers. EVERYONE. I knew she was depressed and has unresolved issues from living with her family. I couldn’t hold her accountable for not being ready to live out on her own and be responsible.

So that put a crack in our relationship.

We eventually made up and things were okay. I don’t even think they were even okay, but that’s whatever.

A few months pass and it’s birthday and she tells me that she and Cole broke up and that she’s been seeing someone. She had told Josh first before she told anyone else. SO I started to really see where I stood.

I know I’m probably coming off as the ‘jealous best friend’ here, but she got mad at me when I announced I was dating my current bf on Facebook, before telling her directly. So I kind of every reason to be upset about all of this.

She tells me that she just fell out of love with Cole and then started dating this guy named Garrett.

Taylor is one of those people who ends up being the things she despises; i.e. a Gamer Girl (all she plays is Final Fantasy online and tries to be cool when she uses cool gamer terms) and the person who falls in love too quickly and saying I love you too soon. I think her and Garrett were together for like 2 weeks when they started saying I love you (she gave Josh so much issue for saying this to his gf’s too soon)

Basically, all she does is play Final Fantasy and then makes everyone look at her screenshots and videos of them roleplaying on FF, even though, none of us really care about it. She lost her job due to attendance and performance (but claims that she worked her ass off. I worked with her, she hardly worked at all and got by the skin of her teeth.)

She came over to get some old shirts of mine so she could start working at her new job and the whole entire time, she just talked about Final Fantasy and when I tried saying something, she interrupted me and said ‘no listen.” with her finger in my face.

If I cared at all about FF I would play it myself. But I don’t. I know I can be obsessive about things, like Sims or Kingdom Hearts, but even I can tell when someone’s getting annoyed and wants me to stop talking about it.

But yeah, that’s basically it.

That’s why I decided to cut out my best friend of 7 years out of my life because our friendship starting becoming really one sided and honestly, I know I’m gonna be a whole hell of a lot happier without her.
