Also, my headcanon is that Jotaro’s birthday is on the 9th of Feb, but I couldn’t post anything out of suffering from anxiety issues. Regardless, happy birthday, love. You deserve the best in the whole world. Thank you, for comforting me with this Well, I hope this makes up for it 💕 Also, a couple of my good friends and I discussed that Jotaro likes cinnamon rolls, hence this story.

song: lucky ones by lana del rey

As the clock struck midnight in the Kujo household, things were starting to settle in with Jovita finally sleeping normally, being kinder to her parents’ sleep schedules, and the relationship between Jotaro and Anika, which had multiple cracks all over, was showing signs of healing. It was Valentine’s week, which also included Jotaro’s birthday, so the house had a couple of decorations, especially after encountering an old lady at the shop who was being unnecessarily picky with both of them. According to Anika, she deserved much more than the slashing of tires. As Jotaro was making the bed, wondering where his wife could be, he heard a soft whisper, “psst, shona,” as the bedroom door opened, with her peeping through the door like a squirrel. “Can you come downstairs, please?” and then hurriedly climbed down the stairs to the kitchen. 

Furrowing his eyebrows, he sighed and followed suit as he saw Anika getting what looked like a plate of cinnamon rolls with one lit candle as she brings it before him with Dangerous Woman standing by her side. He looked at the cake and at her with a soft smile on his face. “You, you remembered?” He asked, hesitatingly. She chuckled softly, responding, “Even if I were to forget everything all over again, I wouldn’t be able to forget this date.” This meant a lot to him considering she had forgotten everything about him for years on end, until they reunited in 1999. She walked towards him, singing the birthday song softly so as to not wake Jovita up. She then stood by his side as he blew the candle, cut a piece, and realized that it looked just like the way his mother used to make it. Delighted, they fed each other. As he was eating the cinnamon roll, he realized  that she took time and care in baking it, which he noticed from the texture. It’s moist, decadent, and, like her, precious. 

With a comfortable silence lingering between them, Anika ran her finger across the frosting of the cinnamon roll, and brought it closer to Jotaro’s lips. Understanding what she wanted to do, he licked the frosting off her finger, sucking on it slowly, and not breaking eye-contact. She could feel her heart thumping, and her breathing labored as she took her finger off his mouth. He asked her calmly, “Ani-chan, are you absolutely sure you want to do this? Because, I’m worried about hurting you, and I don’t want to—” Without replying, she approached him, her lips landing on his, while they cupped each other’s cheeks and raked their nails through each other’s locks. 

It had been five months since Jovita was born, and even then, Anika was struggling with a ton of things. Core muscle weakness, stretch marks, sore breasts—everything. She knew her husband doesn’t care for her changing appearance because he was sure that she would be fine, but little did she know that it pained him to see her feel ugly about the way she looks. This was a much-needed break from their dry spell as they kissed each other, drowning in their passion for one another. To both of them, their lips felt incredibly touch-starved yet divine. They both felt, at that moment, like they were truly at home.

He put his thumb in Anika’s mouth for her to suck on slowly. As he  watched her do so, his cerulean eyes never left her ebony ones. “Anika-chan,” he spoke softly, “are you really sure you want to do this?” She nodded, letting go of his thumb, and responded, “Shona, until we get to a point where we can spend time by ourselves, this is my birthday gift to you. I want to hold you, hug you, and make love to you…” The last few words piqued his interest so much, as it’s something he wanted to do from quite a while—not fuck her rough, but enjoy her as she is. As he never let go of her gaze, she laces her arms behind his neck and kissed him open-mouthed, pushing her tongue against his.

He cupped her butt, lifting her into the air, and she wrapped her legs around his waist, with the kiss quickly becoming hot and frenetic as they slowly climbed upstairs to their bedroom. His hands ran down her back, and he unzipped her red polka-dotted maternity dress that she still wore after giving birth, causing it to drop to the bedroom floor. The moment he sat her down on the bed, he was in awe at her being completely naked and vulnerable in front of him, so he took off all his clothes, including his favorite boxers, in front of her, which caused her to become extremely flustered.

As she turned elsewhere, he lifted her head by her chin in his direction. “Hey, it’s okay,” he said softly, “don’t think of anything else. Let me love you even more as you offer your all to me all over again on this day. Let me show you how I’m in love with each and every part of you.” She giggled, and responded, “I hope you know that it’s your birthday today, Jotaro. Not mine—” Half a second later, she feels herself lying on the bed. It’s amusing how he could stop time seemingly out of nowhere, even if only for a fraction of a second. “What did you—” He smiled as he climbed on top of her and responded, “Not your birthday, yet. I know. Ten months to go, now be still and let me explore you.” 

The moment she nodded is when he brought his face closer to her, with his lips landing on hers again, splayed one of his hands on her waist, and the other caressed her hair as they kept kissing. His lips traveled down her neck, past her chin. While Anika’s breathing hitched, he rasped, “Do you want me to stop, my wife?” She gasped, as she couldn’t believe what he just called her. She felt her stomach doing a backflip after hearing him call her “his wife.” Sure, they’d been married for over two years, but never had that felt more real than this very moment. “No, darling, please don’t stop,” she whimpered as his fingers brushed against her bare skin, sending shivers down her spine. 

He kissed her on the sensitive spot between the neck and shoulder while she was bare and vulnerable before him, and as their skin touched, she clasped his neck and wrapped her legs around his waist while they kept kissing. Soon, they switched positions using Dangerous Woman, and she climbed onto his lap. She whispered in-between kisses, “I’d like to make you feel good, sweetie, may I?” She kissed him on the eyelids without waiting for an answer. “Did I ever tell you that when we first met, your eyes totally caught my attention? They’re the most beautiful ones I’ve seen.” 

She then started leaving a trail of kisses all over his chin, neck, and shoulder blades, stopping and kissing him all over the places where he has scars from battles with DIO. “I love your scars,” she said, “I love that you fought like a warrior when you didn’t have to. I love that they’re just for me to see and love on.” He was soaking up the attention and silently savoring it, expressing himself only through soft grunts. She moved on to his abs and chubby waist, kissing everywhere. “I don’t care what people think of the way you look, but like I told you, you’re the most handsome man for me.” She then slowly peeled the boxers off of him with his dick slapping against his abdomen, giving her room to spread his legs a bit more, kissed the V-line, and then gave one big lick from his balls to the tip, causing him to clench his fists hard in pleasure.

“Jojo, darling, did I ever tell you how much I love this cock so much?” She began savoring his shaft by wrapping her lips around its head, licking the tip, and tasting his pre-cum. She kept sucking hard, maintaining eye contact with him. He watched her, entranced, with his mouth slightly agape. She half-opened her lips and began to let him thrust into her mouth slowly. His girth and length filled her mouth; saliva slid down her chin, and tears lined her cheeks as she felt the tip of his cock push deep into her throat. He took a deep breath before pulling himself out of her wet mouth and slowly pushing himself back in. She bobbed her head back and forth as she grew accustomed to his length and became aware of how he preferred it. He grunts as she squeezed his balls in her hand and started to pump his long cock with the other, sucking on the tip greedily. “Ani—,” he grunted, “fuck, I don’t want to cum like this,” he rasped, pulling back and leaving her gasping for air. 

He gazed at her expression and leaned over, roughly pressing his lips to hers. “You didn’t have to do that,” but then a soft smile appears on his face, “but this means I get to kiss you all over in return, so switch.” She turned and laid down with her head on the pillow, and she watched him climb on top of her. However, instead of kissing her lips first, he first kissed the scar on her forehead, the one that she earned when DIO hit her with one of her boomerangs in Cairo. She winced as he does so, making him place his hand on her cheek. 

“I love this scar because it reminds me to never take you for granted—because of that day,” he said softly, his face pained. “I lost you once; never again.” As she was about to say something, he kissed her nose, where she got the scar when she was bullied in school. “I love this cute scar because it reminds me of how much you’ve grown, and I know you’re still working on it.” He continued to kiss all over her chin, neck, and shoulders, moving to her breasts, holding them, and kissing all over, gently so as to be careful. “You feed our child with these. They’re beautiful,” he whispers in her ear as he fondled one of her breasts and flicked her nipples playfully, even going far as to suckle and breastfeed on them. He then went to the waist to find stretch marks and another scar by DIO and kissed her all over. “If you say that I’m the most handsome, then you’re the most beautiful one, and you know how I’m bad at complimenting.” She chuckled again, responding, “Babe, you don’t have to—” 

He stopped her from talking to see that she went commando, so her pussy was ready to be displayed in all its glory. “Anika, please allow me to take my time with you,” he purred reassuringly, running his hand down her inner thigh and cupping her pussy. Anika breathed tremulously as Jotaro fiddled with her sensitive clit with two of his fingers, causing her to whimper in pleasure. As he continued to pleasure her, she brought her face closer to him and kissed him passionately, moaning his name in between the kisses. She was so grateful that she had shaved herself down there. 

She let out a string of quivering sighs as he slowly went down on her. As she started to murmur, “Jojo,” he licked a single wet stripe from bottom to top before sucking onto her folds, with his tongue thrusting into her core. She inhaled sharply as she held the end of the pillow with one hand, tugging her lips between her teeth to control the moans. As he used his fingers to reach the G-spot, curling them inside, she immediately moaned and grunted, with him covering her mouth with his free hand, reminding her that Jovita is still asleep. She nodded, while her other hand raked through his jet-black locks and presses his head closer between her legs. 

She moaned in between moments of euphoria as he spread her folds and relished her like something that he’d been craving. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head as he grabs hold of her plush thighs to steady her as he keeps thrusting his tongue into her, causing the coil to keep building in her as her back arched and her toes curled. “Pl-Please don’t stop, sweetie, let me cum,” she purred while pressing his face between her thighs harder.

He smirked and licked one final stripe from bottom to top, his compliments on how perfect she is sending her into a frenzy. As he towered over her again, she brought him closer to her and kissed him while he steadied himself and stroked his hardened length before her. With her core muscles now gaining strength thanks to the pelvic floor exercises she did, Anika was nervous as to how he would fit it in her, her gaze now falling on the tip that glistens with his essence. Jotaro smiles and notices her lips quivering, and exhales deeply out of sheer nervousness, furrowing his eyebrows. He approaches her, pressing his tummy against hers and intertwining his fingers with her own. “We don’t have to do this if you’re not able to. I don’t want to hurt you.” Jotaro leans towards her closely and asks out of concern. 

Anika knows that it’s been a while since they’ve had sex, and they are now working on their relationship with the last half year riddled with major communication issues. She’s certain that she needed this for their sake, for their relationship to grow. Thankfully, she felt okay, but she’s not sure how she’ll feel later. Nevertheless, while caressing his cheek with her knuckles, she experienced butterflies fluttering in her stomach all over again. She smiled at him, replying softly, “I’ve never been more sure, darling.”

Jotaro smiled wickedly, leaning forward to whisper in her ear, “I'm going to enter you slowly, okay?” while leaving open-mouthed kisses on the sensitive spot between her neck and shoulder and sucking on it. He aligned his hardened member with her entrance, looking for a sign from her while she nodded. He teased her entrance slowly, sliding up and down, watching her bite her lower lip as it began to throb down there.  He pushed in slowly, with the tip stretching her out, causing her to moan his name and writhe in pain as it stings her a bit. 

“I’m here; breathe deeply for me,” he urged, as he moved his fingers along her clit to help her relax. She pleaded and mewled, “Darling, ‘s too big, pl’ don’t tease me. ‘Wan it all,” wrapping her legs around him and arching back, the pain turning into pleasure as he went deeper before eventually bottoming out, with her throwing her head back moaning loudly in response. He covered her mouth again, this time looking in the direction of Jovita’s room, hoping she hasn’t woken up. They maintained eye contact as his hands pushed into her hip, thrusting in and out of her slowly. He didn’t want to increase the pace right now because all that mattered is that he wanted to enjoy his partner. 

He gazed into her ebony eyes again and is immediately brought back to when he met her in Calcutta for the first time, when he fell in love with her in Karachi, when he kissed her in Cairo and saw her “die” before him, when they reunited and first made love in Morioh, when they got married in Calcutta amidst family drama, and finally, when Jovita was born. A stray tear streamed down his cheek as he kept thrusting in and out, slowly. Anika wipes it off him, and placed her hand on his cheek, softly calling out “shona” to break him out of his reverie. “Anika,” he responded as he shook his head, “I don’t tell you this often, but...” His cheeks reddened when he whispered, “I love you.” Bringing his forehead closer to hers, she responded with a smile, “Oh, my husband, I love you too. Please don’t hide what you’re thinking. Tell me.” He stopped, and responded with a heavy sigh, “I had our entire relationship flash before our eyes. I have a request, Anika.  Please don’t ever risk your life like that again. It…it scares me, and I can’t do without—” Anika covered his mouth with her hand, responding with her eyes welling up, “Oh god, no. I don’t ever want to worry you or Jovita again. I won’t be able to do without you either…”

With him smiling, he gestured to continue. As she nodded, he increased the pace as his hands traveled to hers, intertwining fingers and pressing his forehead against hers. “Is this okay, wife?” Jotaro asked nervously, causing Anika to tilt her head a bit so that she could kiss him, and she responded by moaning and gasping softly, “Yes, baby, ‘eels amazing. ‘love you. ‘ease, don’t stop,” while scratching her nails on his back. He groaned and paced all the more, sucking on the nipples, before eventually hitting the cervix. He never realized how those three words sent him into a frenzy. She  curled her toes, while he kissed her, muffling her moans as he keeps going. All kinds of sensual sounds reverberated in the air, and the smell of sex permeated around them. Too intoxicated in each other’s presence, he explored the upper part of her with his lips, kissing all over her neck, sucking in on some places, lightly marking her, and kissing every inch of her body.. 

He continued to sink into her as sloppy kisses were exchanged, eventually leading both of them to reach their high. Anika breathily cried his name out as he slowed down his thrusts lazily. “I’m on the pill, so it’s okay. Please give it all to me,” she pleaded while he circled her overstimulated bud with his thumb. With a final thrust, their gasps reached a crescendo as they found their releases together, her inner walls hugging him tightly and creaming him, allowing him to fill her up.

As he pulled out slowly and gently, he noticed her whimpering in pain, her inner walls clenching in nothingness. Worried, he rushed to the bathroom, started filling the tub with water, and rushed back to the bedroom to carry Anika, much to her chagrin. “Jotaro, you shouldn’t have done that—” he shushed her, and took her to the tub, gently placing her in the water. He locked the bathroom, joined her, lathered shower gel on the loofah and bathed her. Anika then snatched the loofah from him, and says, “Shona, please, let me do this for you.” She started bathing him, much to his dismay, but he didn’t want to fight. Jotaro sighed, and allowed her to bathe him. “Let me take care of you, please,” she whispered, “Valentine’s Day is near, and you’ve been doing this for a while, on top of working to provide for us.” He smiles at her softly, “Okay. But, I get to do this on Valentine’s Day,” causing her to chuckle. “Yes, yes, I will allow you to spoil me then. But for now, it’s my turn.”

He smiled, and responded, “Thank you, once again, for making me feel special, Ani-chan,” to which she smiled, “Dr. Kujo, it’s an honor to make you feel loved, birthday boy.”

[ahoge-fish]

Hello hello, fellow Jotaro simp hehe! As discussed, I’m finally here with my OC and wanted to introduce her to you hehe!

This is Anika Sen, she’s a Stand User from India. When we meet her in SDC, she’s a student who knows to ride motorcycles, and is also a MMA fighter ✨✨ I’ve mentioned her information here in my OC blog @/anikasenkujo.

Anika (pronounced Uh-nee-ka) meets the SDC group when they land in Calcutta, her place of birth, her hometown, her current residence. She, Jotaro and Kakyoin end in a love triangle in this.

Her Stand is the long ranged Dangerous Woman (yes, it’s based on the Ariana Grande song hehehe) and TLDR: her Stand allows her to teleport by communicating the location telepathically with her Stand and she can use that to use her MMA skills in action. Also, in a critical moment, she can make boomerangs out of nearby objects and hurl at the enemies with a fake smile :D

I’m working on a tumblr post of another OC, Anika’s best friend, and his Stand, will share that soon ^_^

Hope you like her as of now and I’m pretty sure she likes you and Alex already hehe ^_^

Strong woman for sure, I already love her very much, AND SHE'S ALSO SO PRETTYYYYYYHDJDBSFBHS 💖💖💖💖💖

Dangerous Woman has such a cool ability, reminds me of those scenes in anime where there's like a person in the middle and that around them there's the other character teleporting while kicking them AND IT SUCH A BADASS SCENE ALONG WITH THE BOOMERANG ABILITY >:00!!!!

Alex's gonna love her very much too ;)

ALSO, MINORS, AGELESS BLOGS, BLANK BLOGS, STAY THE HECK AWAY FROM THIS POST OR MY BLOG IN GENERAL PLEASE, AND THANK YOU 💖

You’d wrapped your legs around his waist with two of his arms around your waist and the other two arms pinning your arms on the wall as he heavily thrust into both of your holes. 

“Tell me. Who do you belong to?” He commanded an answer from you as one of his cocks hit you so hard that it kissed the spot within, causing you to moan non-stop, babbling something inaudible as he kept bruising your cervix and your other hole with his merciless thirsts. “Who?”

“I, I, I—” you were unable to answer that you never felt so good like this before, and he found the sight of you being left at his mercy quite delightful. 

“Slow down, sir. Please, I’m yours. I’ll choose to serve you, please, please let me cum…” you mewled, and whimpered, unable to speak again, begging for a sense of respite. “Please let me—” you couldn’t complete as you let out a shrill gasp with your eyes rolling at the back of the head, as you started spasming, and a clear fluid started to ooze out of you. The coil in you finally snapped and then some. Even so, he didn’t stop. He would not stop until he painted your inner walls white and filled you up to the brim, to let you know that you would belong to no one else but him. 

Every negative emotion has some amount of cursed energy in it, and almost everyone possesses this said energy. However, an amount of it that’s higher than a certain degree can cause a select few to see curses. 

But since there exists the concept of free will, to choose what we do with the cursed energy that we see, there are different groups of people that lurk around in this world: the ones who are unable to defend themselves by using jujutsu (non-sorcerers), the ones that use sorcery methods for evil (curse users) and the ones that use sorcery methods for good (sorcerers). 

The world we live in is spiritually made up of good and evil. We have the same kind of balance within us. As established before, we’re more than capable of choosing what’s right and what’s wrong. But, what if the good in you is stolen by something so sinister, so vile to the world, but so tempting, alluring, and satisfying that it consumes everything in you?

The streets of Tokyo were a menace these days. Crime rates had increased substantially, but this didn’t stop you, a transfer student, from walking along the streets of downtown in the middle of the night. There was no care in the world that could prevent you from doing so, as you were busy listening to the music and taking in some fresh air until you felt a large ominous presence looming over you. You were aware that you could sense the presence of curses, and were secretly training to be a jujutsu sorcerer, to fight against them and to carry on the tradition that your family set for you. Walking faster in fear, you passed a dark alleyway where you were grabbed by a burly hand and pinned against the wall.

You froze in fear as a menacing figure crept out of the shadows, smirking at you. It seemed as though the incandescent moon decided to shine its light on this 6’5” tall abomination while it approached you. 

Evil took the form of the legendary Jotaro Kujo, the King of Curses, who seemed to be oozing confidence when he approached you. As he appeared before you in a white kimono with black edges, jet-raven hair with bits of curls that shone in the moonlight, and had tattoos around his face, some going to his chest as his kimono was loosely tightened, his wrists and…four forearms?  Your eyes widened as you saw that he had not two, but four arms, and while his face was adorned with the prettiest teal eyes you’d seen, you’d slyly noticed the second set of eyes underneath them. Gasping and leaning against the wall a little too hard, causing you to arch your back subconsciously, he let out his bottom arms to catch hold of you.

“Woah, woah, steady there! I don’t mean any harm,” he smirked at you, to which you scoffed while he approached you, “Well, you don’t seem like it. What do you want from me? I’ll have you know I—” your shrill voice was muffled as he placed one of his top hands over your mouth, and shushed you with another. “I guess you were about to say that you’ll have me know that you’re a jujutsu sorcerer too, right, (Y/N)-chan?” you eyes widened in profound shock. How the hell did he come to know of you existence?

With his maniacal laugh spreading across the sky, the cerulean-eyed monster whispered, “Did you really think I wouldn't know, (Y/N) (L/N)? Did you think your ancestors killing me would release me from this Earth's clutches? Hah! No, far from it!” As your eyes stared into the abyss in his irises, you began to tremble, fear slowly taking hold. 

As you were about to push him, he pulled back, smirked again, used his other arms to pin your arms to the wall tighter and proposed, “I have an offer that you can’t refuse, sweetheart. I’ll let you go. Scot-free. However, there are two conditions that you’ll need to fulfill: One,” he then decides to whisper again with a sinister wink, “you join the dark side. Join forces with me, (Y/N)-chan. Leave everyone behind, and I’ll provide you with everything you need.” 

As his arms grew increasingly powerful over you, you were beginning to feel something that you wasn't supposed to feel; a feeling that you slowly began to relish. There surely was something strangely good about it, although you were unsure of what it was. As he continued to speak,  he let go of one arm that was pinning your arms, to rub your clothed sex beneath your skirt, causing you to whimper and whine, "And secondly, I get to have you here right now, in this hall,in a night of passion.” A night of—wait, does he want to have sex with you in this alleyway?

“Let me be clear before you say no. Since I am the King of Curses, these mere mortals can't even detect my presence until I strike them. However, the only ones that can see us, or rather see me, are people like you who supposedly use their power for good. But, tell me something, what good does it do to be a jujutsu sorcerer, hmm? Your family risks themselves on the line for you, and in order to not have any harm be caused to you, they got you to transfer here, am I right?” Panic started to set in when you heard how accurate he was, describing your situation to the t. 

He then places your panties aside, letting the cold wind graze your pussy as his hand starts to now rub you down there, your whimpers increasing. As his thick fingers started to play with your sensitive clit, he responded, “Oh? So you’re already wet for me, hmm? Don’t worry, I’m not interested in splitting you in half and leaving you out to dry,” he smirks, “I’m going to take care of you. I might just start with tasting you until you grind and ride my tongue. You'll end up begging for more. Then, if I am feeling particularly generous, I would give you my cocks. One at a time, or if you prefer, at once.” Wait a moment, cocks? He has more than one? 

“Sir,” you broke your silence as your whimpers were slowly turning to moans, “If this is the only way I can be let go, I’d like this to happen for one night only.” This compromise was fair, according to you. You were not going to lie, despite him being a force to reckon with, he was alluring. He was hot, and clearly fuckable. What’s the harm in having this for one night, you thought to youself. With a wicked smile on his face, he responded, “See, we’re now making progress!” His warm breath tickles your cheek as his digits start to enter you, with a mouth suddenly appearing from the palm of his hand and his tongue licking your clit, your moans starting to turn to cries.

“But no. I will fill you up so fucking much, your belly will swell and your tight cunt will be overflowing with my seed, and that’s not all. I’ll take control over your other hole and ruin you. Then, you’ll be begging for another night of passion, again, again, and again! Darling, you are going to join the dark side, and I’ll fuck that into you to make sure.”

It’d been hours since you’d been crying, begging for mercy, with both of your clothes strewn across the hallway. Despite him kissing you all over with his mouths appearing from everywhere, he commanded you to hold your orgasm in. Whining in resistance, you wrapped your legs around his waist with two of his arms around your waist and the other two arms pinning your arms on the wall as he heavily thrust into both of your holes. 

You’d never been into anal before, and you’d not imagined that his two girthy cocks would fit inside you, but he made them fit, saying that you “didn’t need any preparation,” and your vision started becoming blurry with tears. You felt that he was so good, that this could never just be a one-night only thing. He had to have his way with you every night, he was the King, after all.

“Tell me. Who do you belong to?” He commanded an answer from you as one of his cocks hit you so hard that it kissed the g-spot, causing you to moan non-stop, babbling something inaudible as he kept bruising your cervix and your other hole with his merciless thirsts. 

“I, I, I—” you were unable to answer that you never felt so good like this before, and he found the sight of you being left at his mercy  delightful. 

“Slow down, sir. Please, I’m yours. I’ll choose to serve you, please, please let me cum…” you mewled, babbled and whimpered, unable to speak again, begging for a sense of respite. “Please let me—” you couldn’t complete as you let out a shrill gasp with you eyes rolling at the back of the head, as a clear fluid started to ooze out of you. The coil in you finally snapped and then some. Even so, he didn’t stop. He would not stop until he painted you inner walls of both the holes white and filled you up to the brim, to let you know that you would belong to no one else but him. 

For a fleeting moment, you thought of wanting to escape. Though, there was no one that could come to your rescue. How could they? The Menacing King was on a rampage, and news kept talking about his images being circulated around, and the fact that he’s very sly and always taking to the shadows, made him difficult to be found. Also, he had established his domain, Star Platinum, a starry barrier that would prevent anyone else from seeing the sinful act they were committing. So, as Jotaro kept drilling you, your moans were loud enough to catch people’s attention, but they were muffled by the barrier,and even if they knew where the voice was coming from, knowing he would be on the loose and start killing anyone who’d come in his way of being physically sated, people would choose to ignore you cries for their lives’ sake.

Contrary to what people would think, however, they weren’t cries of help at all, they were cries of pleasure. You loved that he’d taken notice of you, and was willing to ruin you until you joined the dark side. As he kept fucking into you, with both of you chasing your releases, you kept moaning, “I’ll forever be yours, Jotaro, sir. I’ll forever serve you. Please let me cum, please, please, pleaseeeee,” 

It was when he noticed that you were truly enjoying this sensual reverie that that’s when his thrusts eventually became sloppier and with one final thrust, both of his hardened lengths twitched inside both of your holes, pouring his warm essence into you and riding out his orgasm. 

As he stopped, and the gasps faded, Jotaro seemed to let go of your arms, with you about to fall, until he caught you, pulled you close to him and you shared a passionate kiss with his other set of hands, now free, cupping your cheeks. As you released youself from the kiss, you panted, all fucked-out but he was not willing to let you go so soon. 

“So, will you be joining by my side?” He threw a knowing smile your way, knowing what your answer will be. With your lips enveloping in one passionate kiss, you whispered, “As long as you don’t keep slowing down like this, sir, I’ll be forever bound to you.”

With a wicked grin, he let out a rasp, “Now that’s my girl.” He felt himself hardening again, so he started to grind against you, “Now, on to the next point of our discussion, I’m going to need you to kill someone for me. You’d do that for me, won’t you, (Y/N)-chan?”

When egos collide pt 12- Declaration of war

Book: Open Heart (book 3 rewrite)

Pairing: Ethan Ramsey x Casey Valentine

Summary: well well well, Leland will be in for a surprise in later chapters but the keeping Casey out of this mess plan that Tobias and Ethan hatched is looking rather shaky. The title says it all so this will be a Caroline and team Toban (Tobias and Ethan) installment.

Warnings: language

Disclaimer: All characters, plot points, dialogue (actual and paraphrased) belong to Pixelberry. MC is Casey Valentine.

Tobias, Ethan and Casey are shocked. They had all seen the email from Caroline. Casey was shocked as she too her knowledge had not done anything wrong, Tobias and Ethan though exactly how Casey was dragged in and it was back to the Ethics hearing Ethan had recently endured. Casey was also anxious, from what Ethan said, it would be at least another week or two before any offers came in, however if she got embroiled in whatever Leland was planning she was anxious for her future. Ethan said there was not much that they could do until Friday when they had their meeting with Caroline. Ethan said they would run business as normal until they knew more.

“If Leland knows we know, that will force him to move stuff up, I do not want to give him that advantage.” Stated Ethan. They worked as normal for the next few days then it was Friday. They met in Caroline’s office.

“Thank you for meeting Doctor’s, this is my personal lawyer Ms Juanita Phillips. I will let her give you a run down of what we know.”

“Thank you Caroline,” said Ms Phillips. “Basically the cornerstone of this case is a lawsuit that is being brought forward by a Ms Anika Groves. Due to this case nearing the statute of limitations, Leland has found other cases of alleged Medical misconduct. One, he is still investigating as he is convinced there was some money paid to drop the lawsuit in the first place. The client is the family of a Mrs Theresa Martinez. He tried to get the sister of a Delores Hudson involved also but she was not willing to join in on the suit. The last complainant is a Sen. Ed Farrugia, who is citing the attempted assassination of him as medical malpractice. “

Ethan is shellshocked about Annika Groves. Caroline advises that anything that is said in this meeting is covered by attorney client privilege.

“Annika was treated here for Asperilgus poisoning. I had her on a course of NSAIDS to control the symptoms but whilst she was still on them, she was given variconazole. That caused an anaphylactic reaction...”

Tobias cuts in. “Ethan, we took that class in our first year, majority were second years, you topped the exam with me a close second and in all honesty daylight third, how the fuck did you make such a juvenile error?”

“I may have signed my name on all the charts but it was Naveen who made the error. His sister to whom he was really closed passed away quite suddenly. Needless to say he did not cope with the death well. Needless to say the situation with Ms Groves was a wake up call to him. She was offered a very intense regimen of speech, she always was going to have a rasp. Naveen never found out what I did.”

Everyone was shell shocked. Even Ethan was upset. He thought that this incident would never see the light of day.

“Sorry for coming across as selfish, especially after that bomb you just dropped on us Ethan but is Leland bringing all of these suits on in one hit or will it be gradual?” Asks Casey.

“I don’t think it is selfish Dr Valentine” said Ms Phillips “you have an important exam coming up, from what I have heard from Caroline, the medical world is your oyster. From what we have been able to gather, Ms Groves is the first suit, then the other matters will be brought on regardless of result. It appears Mr Bloom’s main priority is to discredit and defame Dr Ramsey and then anyone closely associated with him.”

Casey sits in stunned silence and Ethan grabs her hand and starts to massage the outside with his thumb.

“I have a lawyer, who I engage for malpractice matters, she will be called upon when I get the summons for Ms Groves. I will also swear an affidavit that no money or threat of any other action transpired between myself and Luis Martinez, the son of Theresa Martinez to drop the lawsuit. All I did was send him an email of his Mother at Sacre- Couer, which was where she wanted to go most in the world. He realised when he saw it, that despite what Casey did, it enabled Theresa to live, not merely survive.” Resolutely stated Ethan.

“Ok plan time, we need to get Dr Banerji involved. I know he does not know what he is done but the fact that it was not you will throw a major spanner. Engage your lawyer. We will see what we can do to keep the other matters out of court entirely. To be honest Sen Farrugia is a weak case because anyone who did due diligence would have picked up that Mr Perry was a family member of someone who died and that the death lead back to something that the senator did. As Dr Ramsey just said, there is no evidence of coercion to drop the Martinez suit, which is what seems to be pinning that case together so Casey, you should hopefully be alright but we will prepare you just in case. Mr Carrick, Leland believes you are on his team, so you will more than likely be called upon to testify against Ethan. Dr Valentine, we will get you to testify for Ethan.” Said Caroline.

“Question, how do I find myself a malpractice lawyer? Am I covered by the hospital?”

“Do not worry about the legal representation Dr Valentine. And as for the rest of it, if any of this comes to court you will be covered by hospital insurance.” Casey nods. The meeting ends. The three of them make their way back to the office in silence. When they arrive back they finally speak.

“That was unexpected.” Stated Tobias, “at least it looks like yours may not see the light of day Casey.”

“I am still nervous though. And boards, like this could not have come at a worse time.” Casey starts pacing. “And Naveen, how could you have done that Ethan and not tell him.”

Ethan pinches the bridge of his nose. “He felt bad enough that what happened had occurred. He was already in a bad enough shape mentally. I did not want to add to it, in fact he did blame me for what happened, claiming I was too distracted by Harper at the time.”

Just then Harper walks in. “Who was distracted by me now?” Questions Harper.

“Remember Annika Groves?” Asked Ethan

“I received an email from Leland awhile now, asking me if I thought anything would come of it, I just presumed he was getting files ready for archiving given the statute of limitations was fast approaching.” Stated Harper.

“Well glad you are capable of throwing other team members under the bus then” said Casey rather spitefully.

Harper was taken aback by the reply.

“Long story short, there is legal action now being taken.” Stated Tobias “it is all we know at this stage.” Tobias knew he was lying as there was a lot more that he knew but he wanted as many people in the dark as possible, given how he had been playing double agent all this time had the potential to be exposed.

Casey gets a page about one of her patients and leaves the room. Tobias, Harper and Ethan chat about what will happen as Ethan will again be out of action temporarily. Tobias states that he was happy to have the team again, with boards so close I do want Casey minimally involved however.”

Harper stated that she had little objection to this. Ethan stated that he would work up to when he gets the summons which is the normal procedure.

Harper then leaves.

“I was not expecting that level of spite out of Casey” said Tobias.

“Nor was I” stated Ethan, “I can not blame her though after the ethics hearing debacle. Although I do not think it was deliberate in this case, if she was flat out asked if she thought anything would come of it then well she gave her answer. How was she supposed to know Leland was upto anything sinister?”

“Good point. Who is telling Caroline of this development?”

Ethan states that he will and he does. He also contacts his lawyer as well.

Ethan catches up with Casey at the end of her shift and he takes her to her apartment. When they arrive they are home alone but go to her room out of habit.

“I know I said I would move in with you in two weeks but can we put it off until after boards and the legal stuff?” Asks Casey, visibly upset. “I still want go move in with you, please do not panic about that, it is just another stress I do not need right now.”

Ethan comes up behind her and gives her a hug. “I am looking forward to when you do move in Casey and I understand your reasoning. Just let me know when you are ready to do so.”

Casey turns around and burrows into his chest.

Casey and Ethan have a quiet night in, both not knowing what will be brewing as early as tomorrow.

Late the next morning, Tobias is summoned into Leland’s office. Tobias is informed by Leland that there will be a malpractice suit brought against Dr Ramsey. Leland does not know that Tobias already knows and Tobias makes sure he has his best poker face on. Leland goes through the details of the case whilst he is doing something on his screen. The next thing Tobias knows is that there is an alert on his phone for a deposit into his bank account. Tobias looks at the alert. “$100,000???? What is that for?”

“Let’s just say that I feel you need to be rewarded for our relationship but also I want to ensure you that our working relationship continues.”

Tobias knows that Leland means inducement to throw Ethan under the bus which he never had any intention of doing even if he still hated his guts. Tobias just simply states thank you. They talk more about trying to get more immuno compromised patients through the team to get onto various research projects. The meeting ends. Tobias has patients to attend to but he knows he needs to tell Caroline what Leland just did.

Meanwhile Ethan is office alone when a courier comes. It is the court summons for the malpractice suit. Ethan calls his lawyer, Ms Laura Whitman to advise that he has received the official summons. What is being brought against Ethan is what Caroline and her lawyer stated. There was a court date on the summons. Ethan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was after Casey’s boards. Ethan again reminded Ms Whitman that one of his key witnesses was to be prepped sooner rather than later to board exams. The call ends. Ethan sits at his desk, looking troubled. Just then Harper, Tobias and Casey walk in. Ethan advises that he has received the official summons for the Annika Groves case. Ethan states that Tobias will be leading the team as he did when Ethan was suspended. Ethan reiterates that Casey’s load within the team is to be kept to a minimum due to boards fast approaching.

Harper once again apologises for her involvement. Ethan ignores her and he gives Casey a hug, as he can see she is visibly upset.

“We will get through this.” He mutters in her ear.

Casey takes a breath and goes and answers a page for one of her patients and Harper also leaves.

Tobias remains. “The overlord does not fuck around does he?”

“Appears not,” says Ethan, mind you with statute of limitations being nearly up. Speaking of the overlord, what did he want with you earlier?”

“Let’s just say I was given a bribe to perjure myself. Caroline will not be happy, I am meeting with her tomorrow when Leland is not in. Don’t worry, I will not be lying on that stand. You have always being a great doctor, you had your reasons for protecting Naveen, hell even all the background stuff you did to help Casey out with her Ethics hearing in the intern year show how great you are. I could never do it. Even if we were not getting along.”

Ethan is left speechless. “Go home, kick some legal butt, I will mind the fort here and please try not to shut Casey out, I know there would be some legal stuff you can not talk to her about but you do need each other.”

“I know Tobias. I know.”

Casey skips her lunch break, choosing to work but in the afternoon she hits a wall during afternoon rounds. Tobias is the attending supervising today and at the conclusion he meets with Casey.

“What is up?” He asks.

“Ok I may have worked through lunch in the hope that it would help keep my mind off stuff.”

“I am not going to let you work yourself to exhaustion. Your shift is nearly over, I will get Aurora to look out for your more trickier patients, please take the rest of today off and no skipping breaks please.”

Casey opens her mouth to argue but Tobias cuts her off. “No arguments, go.”

Casey finishes up and leaves the hospital. She makes her way to Ethan’s. He is home and is both shocked and relieved to see her. He gives her a hug.

Casey burrows into his chest and Ethan hugs her close. “You will be ok and I will be ok, we will be okay he whispers into her hair. They stand in the doorway for what seems like ages. Light headedness from hunger and being burrowed in Ethan’s chest force Casey to move. Ethan gets Casey to sit down while he cooks an early dinner for them both.

They eat their meal in companionable silence. When they are finished Casey asks Ethan if he is nervous about the trial.

“A little yes, if I am being honest, coming clean to Naveen about what I did has me more nervous. How are you feeling with it all?”

“Terrified to be honest. I have always had your back and will do so but still scary, given that Leland is after my blood too.”

“His cases are pure witch hunt and show no malpractice, there was malpractice with mine, even though it is the wrong person being accused. I spoke to my lawyer today and I did remind her that you do have boards coming up so she should be in touch soon.”

Ethan laces his fingers between hers and massages the outside of her hand with his thumb. Casey smiles, rather exhaustedly.

“Did you want to stay or head to yours?” Asks Ethan.

“Stay, I feel like I could fall asleep standing up in the shower.” Says Casey.

Casey and Ethan shower together and Casey falls asleep straight away when they finish. Ethan lays awake for awhile and he eventually falls asleep.

The next day comes, Tobias meets Caroline. He shows her the transactions page of his bank account. Caroline wishes she was shocked but she knew that $100,000 went missing from an account but it was nice to know where it ended up. Tobias was shocked that Caroline was not as shocked.

“I have been taking over and gaining access to various accounts and assets, not only as apart of my contribution with what you and Dr Ramsey are uncovering with my husband but my end game is to ultimately take control of this hospital from him and a few of his other businesses also where I have a considerable stake.”

Tobias raises an eyebrow. “Well I am sure you will do a better job in a lot of respects Caroline.”

“Thank you for the vote of confidence Dr Carrick. He has been a man possessed for far too long and quite frankly I am over it. What happened to Casey would not have happened in any of our other businesses. Leland has always generally respected the FDA on quite a lot so the fact he wanted to make his own shows just how much of a changed man he has become.”

Caroline suggests making another account so that any further inducements can be quarantined. Caroline also advised that she was meeting Dr Ramsey, with his lawyer and Naveen on Monday. Tobias wished her luck with that and left.

As he leaves the office he sees Casey.

“I was not expecting you today” be said with a hint of concern.

“I need to keep busy Tobias, thank you for the concern though but I need to go to my mediation session with Harper.

Casey, Harper and the mediator met. The main topic was Ethan’s lawsuit and Casey’s spiteful reaction of Harper inadvertently throwing Ethan to the lions.

Harper was adamant that she had no idea what Leland was planning.

“As I said the other day, I literally thought that he was prepping files for archive given how close it was to the statute of limitations was.”

The mediator then asked, “If the file was nearing the statute timeframe, and it was a patient that was in the care of Dr Valentine, and there appeared to be no signs of any legal action, would you have given the same response?”

Casey held her breath, she hoped it would be similar to what went down as she hoped that jealousy was not a motive for the study debacle.

Harper took a deep breath before giving her the answer. “I would advise to hold off onto giving the file to archives until the statute period was up as anything could have happened in that time.”

Casey in that moment turned away from Harper.

The mediator then asked Harper why the difference, and did the difference have anything to do with what had occurred with Dr Ramsey.

Harper was shocked as she in that moment realised that she did favour Dr Ramsey and perhaps there was a deep seated jealousy of Dr Valentine that was manifesting itself by favouring Dr Ramsey.

“I’m sorry Casey, truly,” says Harper. “I do not consider myself a jealous type, and my actions are not typical of a jealous person so that is why I always ruled it out, however it appears that there is some there.”

Harper then leaves the room. Shocked at herself but in one way relieved as she knows what is really driving her behaviour.

She goes to find Tobias. She finds him in the office. Harper details the revelation that she has come too and advises that she will be stepping down from the team at the completion of Ethan’s trial.

Tobias is shocked at the admission, however understands her reasoning and is quietly relieved that Harper will be staying on the team until Ethan’s trial is over.

Later that night at the Bloom residence Caroline confronts Leland.

“Why do you have a vendetta against Dr Ramsey and to a lesser degree Dr Valentine?” Questioned Caroline.

“What vendetta sweetheart?” Asked Leland.

“What so it is not you behind the current lawsuit and two potential ones? It is not you who did his utmost best to keep someone who admitted to rape of a colleague out of prison when in any other company even the rumour of someone wanting to do something untoward would get them warned by HR straight away?”

“The tech world is different to the medical world darling, there are different expectations...”

Caroline cuts him off. “Sexual harassment or sexual assault is still the same thing, no matter the industry and you know it. I hate the man you have become Leland. I get wanting to find a cure for my condition but it has turned you into a man that I can not love. The Leland I know would not do half of what he is doing or has done in the past year. I did appreciate the zeal in the beginning but I can not pretend to be alright with what you are doing and what you have become. I will be taking up residence at one of my other properties. Any further contact you wish to have with me will be through my attorney Ms Phillips. As far as I am concerned, this marriage is over. You will be served papers in due course.”

Caroline walks out and makes her way to the car that is waiting for her. Leland sits there in stunned silence. He had no idea that Caroline had grown to resent him. He was not going to give up on his marriage without a fight though. This was no longer a battle to find a cure but a war to save his marriage.

[INTERVIEW #310] L’artiste allemande Anika, de son vrai nom Annika Henderson, a sorti son deuxième album ‘Change’ qu’elle défendra sur la scène de La Station - Gare des Mines à Paris le 11 septembre. On a discuté avec elle du réchauffement climatique, d’hallucinations et de réalité virtuelle. Ton précédent album solo ‘Anika’ est sorti en 2010. Quels sont les principaux événements qui se sont passés dans ta vie sur cette dernière décennie ? Annika : Tellement de choses se sont passées que je ne sais pas par où commencer ! Je dois bien sûr mentionner Exploded View [notre interview par ici], c’est un projet qui m’a grandement transformée. On a beaucoup appris avec cela, c’était super. Dans chaque collaboration, j’ai appris quelque chose. Jouer et écrire avec toutes ces personnes différentes a été très enrichissant. Au début, quand on m’a proposé de travailler avec Beak>, c’était la première fois que je faisais de la musique avec quelqu’un [le producteur Geoff Barrow cherchait une vocaliste féminine pour travailler avec son groupe Beak>, Annika a rejoint le groupe en studio et a enregistré avec eux pas moins de 9 chansons en 12 jours, dont une reprise du morceau Yang Yang de Yoko Ono, qui ont constitué son son premier album éponyme ‘Anika’ sorti en 2010]. J’ai eu pas mal de chance de pouvoir commencer avec eux, ce sont de si bons musiciens et des personnes très sympathiques. Puis j’ai exploré un peu plus, j’ai essayé des choses. J’ai fait beaucoup de concerts à travers le monde : au Mexique, au Japon, en Russie ou en Iran, tellement d’endroits incroyables. J’ai également pas mal appris en parlant aux gens après les concerts, en discutant de ce que la musique signifiait pour eux. Tu as aussi fait un album ‘Behind the Glass’ (2017) avec l’artiste électronique berlinois Shakelton. Annika : C’était très intéressant. Shakelton travaille différemment de toutes les autres personnes avec qui j’ai collaboré. C’est un mec très sympa. Il fait de la musique assez sombre, mais le fait de travailler avec lui n’était pas du tout une expérience sinistre, au contraire. C’était bon d’apprendre dans cette perspective également. On a écrit ensemble les paroles. On s’envoyait les idées qu’on trouvait importantes. Il y avait pas mal d’échange entre nous. Le projet était assez orienté autour de la narration. On est entré dans cet environnement d’un autre monde. Ça a commencé avec un livre en fait qu’il m’a donné à lire. On est partis de là et on a créé cet univers parallèle étrange. Bien sûr, j’y ai aussi mis ma propre expérience et il y a mis la sienne, mais cela existait d’une certaine façon dans le monde de ce livre. C’était un processus original. Tu as mentionné le groupe Exploded View, dont un des membres est Martin Thullin. Pour ton nouvel album, tu as travaillé à nouveau avec Martin, qui a co-produit le disque et qui a contribué sur la batterie et la basse. C’est un album d’Anika, mais comment diffère-t-il donc à ton sens d’un album d’Exploded View ? Annika : Avec Exploded View, pour le premier album éponyme (2016) on était quatre et pour le second ‘Obey’ (2018) on était trois. On est entrés au studio sans plan particulier et on a commencé à écrire tous ensemble. C’étaient donc des albums à propos de nous quatre, puis de nous trois. Alors qu’avec cet album solo ‘Change’, j’ai tout écrit seule puis j’ai envoyé cela à Martin en lui demandant de revoir la batterie. J’avais déjà fait la batterie et la basse, mais je n’avais qu’une batterie électronique, avec des beats digitaux. Je lui ai demandé de l’aide en lui montrant où j’en étais. Martin est un super batteur. C’est aussi quelqu’un en qui j’ai vraiment confiance. Il n’essaie pas d’imposer ses idées. Il est très compréhensif ce que j’ai envie de faire, il écoute et il dit : “OK, qu’est-ce que tu veux que je fasse maintenant ?” C’est très différent. En fait avec ce disque, j’ai pu faire exactement ce que je voulais. Je l’ai façonné avec ma vision, alors qu’avec Exploded View c’était un projet de groupe, on avait chacun notre vision et on trouvait des compromis. Pour mon album, Martin, qui est très respectueux, a ajouté des choses alignées avec ma vision. C’est très différent. C’est pourquoi Exploded View ne s’est jamais appelé Anika. On s’est rencontré parce que c’était la formation live pour un concert que je jouais à Mexico. Quand on a écouté en retour ce qu’on avait créé ensemble, ça ne semblait pas juste d’appeler cela Anika parce c’était un effort commun. Je voulais donc qu’on crée un nouveau projet. Même pour ce nom de groupe, j’avais pour ma part voté contre mais les trois autres avaient voté pour et donc on l’a gardé ! C’est ce qui arrive dans un groupe. On était une démocratie. Je n’avais pas un vote plus fort que les autres, chaque vote comptait équitablement et c’était très bien ainsi.

Depuis 2010, il n’y a jamais eu un autre moment où tu t’es dit que tu allais sortir un nouvel album avec ton projet solo Anika ? Annika : Chaque année, j’essayais d’écrire quelque chose. Même quand j’étais détournée par des collaborations, je réalisais que j’avais encore des choses à apprendre. C’est juste que je ne suis jamais arrivée au stade que je voulais, cela ne semblait pas être le bon moment. Puis j’ai à nouveau fait des collaborations parce que d’une certaine façon c’était plus intéressant pour moi. Là c’était la première fois que je savais qu’il y avait quelque chose de nouveau que je voulais faire et dire. Il m’a fallu longtemps pour atteindre ce point. Ça a été une expérience assez étrange. Je pense aussi que toutes les choses inattendues qui se sont passées l’année dernière ont vraiment donné l’approche narrative. Quand je vivais à Berlin, je sentais que j’avais perdu la notion de conflit. Alors que quand je vivais à Bristol au Royaume-Uni, j’en avais beaucoup. En Angleterre, tu te sens souvent en conflit envers quelque chose, que ce soit la politique ou juste la vie de tous les jours. Alors qu’à Berlin il n’y a pas tant de conflit. Or d’une certaine façon pour mon écriture, j’ai besoin de ce conflit. Quand tu commences n’importe quel film, tu as besoin de conflit pour faire fonctionner la narration. Depuis l’année dernière, ça a été tellement dingue dans ma vie personnelle et dans le monde que je me suis dit qu’il n’y avait pas d’autre choix que d’en parler en musique, c’était vraiment une nécessité. Quand tu mentionnes les conflits, tu fais référence à quoi ? Sur l’album, tu parles notamment des problématiques environnementales dans le morceau Never Coming Back. On a relu l’interview qu’on avait faite avec toi en 2016 pour Exploded View [par ici] et tu avais dit : “Je suis extrêmement concernée par l’environnement. Ce qui m’attriste, c’est que cela semble être passé de mode. On dirait que plus personne ne s’en préoccupe. Les seules questions dont on parle sont la condition féminine et la politique des sexes, ce qui est bien évidemment, mais je pense que l’environnement, et pas seulement les bouleversements climatiques, est le problème actuel le plus important.” Annika : La chose amusante, c’est qu’à l’époque c’était avant Greta Thunberg [militante écologiste suédoise engagée dans la lutte contre le réchauffement climatique depuis 2018, un film documentaire ‘I Am Greta’ est prévu le 29 septembre en salles]. Je trouve qu’elle a fait un très grand travail sur le sujet pour qu’on en parle dans les médias, même si on dirait que cela a eu un écho surtout vers une certaine génération, ce qui est un peu triste. Elle a beaucoup contribué à amener le sujet au premier plan pour les jeunes et avec un peu de chance quand ils grandiront il y aura une voix importante que l’on ressentira plus profondément en politique. Il est nécessaire que des mesures soient prises en urgence. On se dirige sinon vers un danger d’extinction. En 2017, on avait sorti avec Exploded View la chanson Summer Came Early qui est à propos du réchauffement climatique. Maintenant sur mon album il y a en effet Never Coming Out qui poursuit dans ce sens. Dans ce morceau, les paroles évoquent notamment l’extinction des oiseaux. Annika : Ce n’est pas qu’à propos des oiseaux, mais de plusieurs choses. Cela parle du fait de ne pas se rendre compte des éléments qui se dégradent, jusqu’à ce que ce soit trop tard. Cela s’applique également à la montée en puissance de la politique d’extrême droite, qui a tant de pouvoir en ce moment dans le monde en Europe, en Russie, aux Etats-Unis, un peu partout. Il faut faire attention avant qu’il ne soit trop tard. Parfois, tu ne peux pas inverser la chose quand c’est fait. Par exemple pour ces oiseaux qui meurent, on ne peut plus vraiment y faire quoi que ce soit maintenant, si ce n’est essayer de les modifier génétiquement... On ne peut pas faire revivre les gens comme Frankenstein. C’est un exemple visible assez tôt de la dégradation très importante qui se déroule. Tout l’écosystème est déséquilibré. On le voit aussi avec tous les feux de forêt qui se produisent de plus en plus. Tout cela, il faut en prendre compte maintenant et agir. C’est important. Tu étais une journaliste en politique, tu penses que tous les morceaux sur l’album ont un impact politique ? Annika : Cela vient de moi. Ce n’est pas comme si je me disais que je voulais écrire une chanson sur le réchauffement climatique ou autre. Ce sont des choses qui sont dans mes pensées. Il est vrai que j’ai un entraînement du fait de mon expérience de journaliste, je consomme des informations d’une certaine façon. Je lis beaucoup choses différentes, je consulte plusieurs sources d’informations. J’essaie aussi de faire moi-même le maximum de recherches dans la réalité dans la mesure du possible. Cela va dans mon subconscient, du coup quand j’écris cela sort de cette façon.

Crédits photo : Sven Gutjahr Le morceau Sand Witches est à propos de l’Angleterre. Quels sont les principaux thèmes que tu évoques dans les autres morceaux ? Annika : Même dans Sand Witches, ce n’est pas qu’à propos de l’Angleterre. Aucun morceau n’est à propos que d’une seule chose je dirais, il y a tant de sujets et de thèmes au final. Comme j’ai dit, je ne me mets pas dans l’état d’esprit d’écrire sur un thème en particulier, les choses s’écrivent par elles-mêmes. Parfois même je ne suis pas sûre de savoir précisément de quel sujet je parle et je peux m’en rendre compte plusieurs années après ! Ce sont des choses inconscientes. Dans Sand Witches, c’est beaucoup sur le fait de voir d’où on vient, un endroit ou une famille par exemple et constater une transformation en quelque chose de presque méconnaissable. C’est comme avec les amis que j’avais à l’école, maintenant quand je les recroise bien souvent je me rends compte que je ne peux plus vraiment entretenir de rapport avec eux. C’est pareil avec les lieux et parfois même avec la famille quand on passe par des étapes mouvementées. Quand tu reviens, tu peux penser : “Ok, on est dans des états d’esprit différents.” La vie te change, c’est un processus naturel. Tu ne peux pas t’accrocher à des choses et les geler dans le temps, même si pourtant tout le monde essaie de faire cela. L’industrie du maquillage et de l’esthétique est basée sur le désir vain de geler le temps, mais tu ne peux pas, ce n’est pas le processus naturel. Cela nous fait penser à la vidéo pour ton morceau Change qui est relativement aseptisée et dans laquelle tu sembles habillée par des vêtements de designers. Annika : Ce projet est totalement DIY. Surtout pour les vidéos, on avait très peu de temps pour y réfléchir. J’ai travaillé en relation étroite avec le réalisateur à chaque fois pour trouver ce qu’on allait faire, surtout en cette période de crise sanitaire. Pour la première vidéo de Finger Pies, j’ai demandé une faveur à une amie designer que je connais à Berlin depuis quelques années. Pour la deuxième de Change, je me suis dit que je ne pouvais pas lui demander à nouveau. Je venais de collaborer avec la designer Jil Sander pour la musique d’un défilé de mode à Paris [pour la collection féminine automne / hiver 2021 en février dernier, plus d’infos par ici]. D’habitude, je ne fais pas ce genre de choses, mais là avec l’équipe de Jil Sander pour cette collaboration, c’est elle qui m’avait contactée directement. Elle est beaucoup dans le minimalisme, le style classique. Elle est très consciente des choses, c’était intéressant de parler avec eux. Ils ne m’avaient pas donné de briefing strict, ils voulaient vraiment que je puisse faire ce que je désirais. Ils me disaient : “Non n'aie pas peur de faire quelque chose qui puisse ressembler à une pub !” C’est un paysage sonore étrange pour eux. Après cela, le tournage de cette vidéo arrivait à grand pas et je me disais que je n’avais rien de particulier à porter. Je lui ai donc demandé si je pouvais emprunter des vêtements pour le tournage. Elle m’a dit : “Bien sûr que tu peux emprunter des choses !” Elle m'a fait une livraison. J’ai pensé que ce serait un contraste intéressant. En particulier pour Change. Je me suis assurée de mélanger ce qu’ils avaient envoyé. J’ai travaillé avec un styliste [Esteban Pomar] de Berlin qui a fait intervenir beaucoup de ses amis qui sont des designers en vue à Berlin. On a modifié les tenues autant qu’on pouvait. Tu as ajouté une photo de toi-même sur la veste violette que tu portes dans la vidéo, non ? Annika : Ce n’est pas une photo de moi en fait, il s’agit d’une personne que je ne connais pas. C’est le styliste, qui est vraiment un mec super sympa, il avait plein de photos individuelles de ses amis et il m’a dit : “Choisis-en une !” Et c’est ce que j’ai fait. C’est le truc, il essaie de séparer les choses et d’y donner une nouvelle signification. J’ai trouvé ça intéressant d’entrer dans le monde de la mode de cette façon. J’ai apprécié de voir ce qu’il faisait, il utilise ce qu’il a sous la main. Comme je l’ai dit, ce que je fais est DIY. Là j’ai cet accès à quelque chose. C’est une façon intéressante d’amener la musique dans une dimension différente.

A propos de nouvelle dimension, dans cette vidéo pour Change il y a des modèles virtuels 3D ! Annika : Je parlais beaucoup de cela avec un ami du réalisateur. On est dans cette époque étrange très tournée autour de la promotion de soi-même, c’est extrême. La 3D est presque une forme de destruction. Tu t’intègres dans cette créature en 3D qui d’une certaine façon te détruit en même temps. Je pense que c’est important d’interagir avec la façon dont la technologie se produit en ce moment. On est dans cet environnement un peu fou. C’était le sujet aussi d’un projet que j’avais fait autour des robots pour le festival Pop-Kultur à Berlin [le 24 août 2017] quand j’ai travaillé avec un programmeur [Raoul Sanders] pour écrire des paroles. On a créé ce robot qui génère des paroles en intelligence artificielle [plus d’infos par ici]. Les robots prennent le travail des gens. Ils sont si avancés, ils seront probablement amenés à prendre soin des personnes âgées ou d’autres choses comme cela bientôt. C’est un peu flippant. Je trouve que cela se développe si vite. On peut le voir à Berlin. Depuis cinq ans environ, la ville a été prise par l’industrie technologique. C’est un peu similaire à ce qui est arrivé à San Francisco [avec la Silicon Valley], de manière pas aussi extrême bien sûr. C’est très important de garder un œil sur cela, particulièrement en tant que musicien. On peut même voir à quel point ça a affecté le monde de la musique. Avec une application comme Spotify, ça a complètement changé la façon avec laquelle les musiciens sortent de la musique et comment ils en obtiennent de l’argent. Il y a aussi l’aspect des réseaux sociaux où les artistes doivent poster des choses, montrer qu’ils sont actifs. A propos de la technologie, cela nous fait penser à la vidéo suivante pour Rights dans laquelle tu portes un masque VR. Pendant le tournage, tu regardais vraiment quelque chose dans le masque ? Annika : Non, il n’y avait rien, c’était du pur jeu d’acteurs ! (Rires) Dans cette vidéo, il y a un concept un peu vague que personne ne perçoit mais ce n’est pas grave. Au début, je suis assise à ce bureau tout blanc, enfermée dans cette sorte capsule. Je n’ai pas ma voix et je n’ai aucun moyen d’être forte. Je veux m’échapper dans la réalité virtuelle. Avec ce masque VR, mon personnage peut aller dans cet univers parallèle et se sentir fort. A la fin, je retourne au bureau, mais j’ai toujours le souvenir que cela pourrait être possible, qu’on peut être fort. Il y a tellement de thèmes différents dans cette chanson. Dans ta première vidéo Fingers Pies, on te voyait enterrer une boîte dans une forêt. Au début de celle pour Rights on te voit ouvrir une autre boîte dans laquelle tu trouves ce masque VR. On s’est demandé si c’était un lien désiré ? Annika : Peut-être, oui. Il y a beaucoup de symbolique, en particulier dans le fait d’enterrer cette boîte à la fin de Fingers Pies. Cette chanson était très personnelle pour moi, c’était étrange de la sortir en premier parce qu’elle parle beaucoup de conflits personnels que j’avais l’an dernier. J’enfouissais toutes ces choses que je ne voulais pas emporter avec moi dans le prochain endroit : des mauvaises pensées et des personnes néfastes. Il n’y avait pas de membre humain dedans quand même. (Rires) La boîte est toujours là ! Je me demande si quelque un jour la sortira. Qu’y a-t-il dedans ? Annika : Je ne m’en souviens plus très bien, plusieurs choses que je voulais oublier justement ! Tu n’a pas envie de donner des indications sur où elle est enfouie ? Annika : Peut-être que si des gens étudient les arbres à l’arrière, ils trouveront ! Il y a ce super film ‘Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter’ (David Zellner, 2014) que j’aime beaucoup. La protagoniste vit au Japon, elle est obsédée par le film ‘Fargo’ (Joel et Ethan Coen, 1996). Elle essaie de retracer la rançon qui est enfouie dans la neige à un moment du film. Elle parvient à aller là où il est supposé être, mais elle finit dans une forêt mourante. C’est un film très spécial, je l’ai vu quand j’étais en Iran. A l’époque, j’avais des hallucinations tout le temps. A un moment, un de mes amis que j’ai rencontré là-bas m’a apporté pas mal de DVD parce que je ne pouvais aller nulle part. Chaque chose me faisait triper encore plus. Je n'ai vu ce film que dans ce contexte. Peut-être qu'en fait il est complètement différent et que j’ai tout imaginé ! (Rires)

Comment se fait-il que tu as eu des hallucinations à l’époque ? Annika : Je crois que c’était dû à un empoisonnement lié à l’eau. Je n’étais pas au courant quand je suis arrivée. Je n’ai jamais été aussi malade. J’étais toute seule en Iran. Heureusement j’ai rencontré des amis sympathiques, l’un d’eux passait me voir de temps en temps. Tu te souviens des choses bizarres que tu as vues ? Annika : Je lisais ‘Au cœur des ténèbres’ (1899) de Joseph Conrad à l’époque. Cela faisait vraiment vriller mon esprit. Tout devenait en 3D. C’était étrange. Puis j’ai vu ce film et c’était très bizarre. C’est dingue comment le corps peut te faire cela. De retour à la vidéo Rights, il y a une autre jeune femme avec toi qui est Carmen Burguess. C’est aussi une artiste musicale ? Annika : Oui elle a un super projet intitulé Mueran Humanos avec Thomas Nochteff. Je suis fan depuis quelques années. Je les connais et on partage un studio. On a toujours voulu faire une vidéo ensemble. Pour ce clip, j’avais vraiment besoin de jouer avec quelqu’un dedans et je lui ai proposé. C’est une personne très forte, je voulais une personne qui symbolise la puissance féminine. Elle est dans la vidéo mais elle n’a pas chanté ou participé ou morceau, si ? Annika : Non, en effet. A propos de l’album, tu as mentionné Martin. Il y a d’autres gens qui t’ont aidé pour le disque ? Annika : Martin a fait des ajouts sur les enregistrements. L’an dernier, j’ai fait un projet avec un orchestre à cordes à Berlin où on a réinterprété l’album ‘Desertshore’ de Nico [1938-1988]. C’était dingue de travailler avec eux [plus d’infos par ici]. Je voulais vraiment mettre des cordes sur mon album, je leur ai donc demandé s’ils pouvaient y participer. Un des membres de l’orchestre est venu jouer de la contrebasse et un autre a ajouté cette partie de cordes assez sinistre à la fin de Rights. D’ailleurs, à l’époque où on travaillait avec Martin, on se disait : “Combien de temps on devrait laisser durer cette partie ?” Parce qu’elle sonnait si bien. On a fait un edit où elle se termine assez vite, alors qu’elle continuait sur encore trois minutes. Au final, ça sonnait un peu comme le générique de ‘Colombo’ [à écouter par ici]. (Rires) Martin faisait ces batteries un peu bizarres, juste avec des grosses baguettes. Ça sonnait trop comme la série et on l’a coupé. Les deux intervenants ont donc contribué, mais avec le contexte de la crise sanitaire, ils ont m’ont envoyé des choses à distance. Au studio Klangbild à Berlin, un ami Robby a ajouté un peu de basse. Puis dans l’autre studio, un autre Martin a ajouté du tambourin. C’est comme ça avec l’enregistrement, on a besoin d’aide parfois. Apparemment pour tes prochains concerts tu auras un groupe entièrement féminin, n’est-ce pas ? Annika : Tout à fait ! On n’avait jamais joué ensemble avant. J’ai fait des recherches à Berlin pour de bonnes musiciennes. Je ne voulais pas être exclusive, cela ne m’aurait pas du tout dérangée s’il y avait eu un ou deux homme(s). Je voulais juste qu’il y ait une atmosphère queer friendly. J’étais très heureuse de n’avoir que des femmes cette fois. Je pense que c’est important. Cet album est beaucoup à propos de cela. J’ai été très chanceuse parce que j’ai trouvé trois super musiciennes. On a joué notre premier concert fin juillet en quelque sorte, on a fait une session live pour la radio allemande Radio Eins. On a joué trois chansons mais sans vraiment un équipement complet, on n’avait le droit d’apporter ni des percussions ni une basse [le groupe a joué Finger Pies, Change et Rights, à écouter par ici]. C’était un peu étrange, mais ça faisait plaisir de jouer. Cela faisait si longtemps. J'ai hâte de venir jouer sur scène en France à la rentrée [le 11 septembre à La Station - Gare des Mines]. On verra comme ça se passera. Ce sera un concert différent de d’habitude avec cette nouvelle formation.

Crédits photo : Sven Gutjahr On a vu que tu as fait une vidéo d’une trentaine de minutes titrée ‘Alone in the City’ pour NBK (Neuer Berliner Kunstverein) [plus d’infos ici]. Peux-tu nous en parler ? Les chansons qu’il y avait dans cette vidéo sont dans l’album ? Annika : C’était très intéressant. On était en contact depuis l’an dernier pour que je fasse une performance avec eux. Normalement, ils ont un vernissage quand il y a une grosse exposition dans la galerie et ils organisent un concert avec un groupe. Par le passé, il y a eu notamment Peaches qui a joué. Ils ont une programmation très cool. Il n’y a pas beaucoup d’expositions, juste une ou deux par an il me semble. Ils voulaient faire cela dans ce contexte [l’exposition ‘Step Out of the Strange Light’ s’est tenue du 26 mars au 9 mai 2021]. Mais avec le coronavirus, le concert n’a pas pu se faire. Ils m’ont dit qu’on pouvait donc faire un livestream, néanmoins je devais synchroniser ma bouche sur le son enregistré en différé. Je ne voulais pas faire ça, je trouvais ça un peu nul. Je leur ai donc proposé de faire une vidéo où je marchais dans Berlin. Je savais ce que je voulais faire, ils ont été partants et ils ont organisé cela. Une des filles, nommée Sabrina Labis, est réalisatrice. C’est elle qui d’ailleurs après m’a demandé de faire la vidéo pour Rights. Pour NBK, on décidé de faire 9 mini vidéos en une journée pour les chansons que je voulais vraiment jouer : il y en avait quelques unes d’Exploded View, d’autres du nouvel album et une que j’avais faite pour Jil Sander dont je vous parlais tout à l’heure. Avec cette époque de crise sanitaire, cette était très symbolique. On s’est bien amusés. D’ailleurs, tu as écrit l’album avant le coronavirus ? Annika : J’ai commencé à travailler un peu dessus avant oui. J’avais pris du temps de repos de décembre 2019 à mars 2020. J’avais économisé de l’argent pour cela. Puis le coronavirus est arrivé. C’était bizarre, j’avais beaucoup de démos d’avant mais au final j’ai quasiment tout jeté. J’étais dans un état d’esprit très différent. D’une certaine façon, c’était plus le pré-travail. Il faisait sens, mais j’ai fait des choses complètement différentes par la suite. La seule chanson qui a survécu des démos d’avant est celle de clôture Wait for Something, qui a fini elle même par beaucoup changer au final. Quels sont les films que tu as vus récemment et aimés ? Annika : J’ai vu pas mal de films sur Mubi. C’est une de mes plateformes favorites. Je ne regarde pas de séries, donc mon seul abonnement est sur Mubi. Tu retires vraiment quelque chose des films qu’ils proposent, ils ont une très bonne sélection. Surtout ces derniers temps où les cinémas sont pas mal restés clos. Sinon, j’adore aller au cinéma à Berlin. Le cinéma est un médium que j’ai toujours adoré. D’ailleurs, j’ai fait la voix off pour un court-métrage ‘It Has to Be Lived Once and Dreamed Twice’ (2019) de Rainer Kohlberger qui a eu sa première à la Berlinale [plus d’infos par ici]. C’était une très bonne expérience. Pour revenir à votre question, j’ai beaucoup aimé ‘Le Désert rouge’ (1964) de Michelangelo Antonioni. Il a influencé ma vidéo pour Fingers Pies. Certains plans du clip en sont une référence directe, en particulier ceux avec la zone industrielle à l’arrière. Dans le film, l’utilisation des couleurs est dingue. C’est tellement psychotique. Cela tranche réellement dans le parcours de cette jeune femme. C’est un chef-d'œuvre visuel. J’adore les films à narration lente comme celui-là. Sinon j’ai regardé ‘Secrets et Mensonges’ de Mike Leigh (1996) et ‘Les Commitments’ d’Alan Parker (1991). J’ai regardé quelques films anglais récemment et les ceux de Terry Gilliam aussi. As-tu des groupes à nous recommander ? Annika : Il y a un ami qui s’appelle Plattenbau que j’apprécie beaucoup. Je le connais depuis que je suis arrivée à Berlin, il vient du Pays de Galles. Par coïncidence, le bassiste de son groupe joue désormais dans mon groupe. Je vous recommande également Mueran Humanos, c’est le groupe de Carmen Burguess dont je vous parlais tout à l’heure. Crédits photo de couverture : Sven Gutjahr Le nouvel album d’Anika ‘Change’ est maintenant disponible et hautement recommandé ! L'artiste se produira à La Station - Gare des Mines le samedi 11 septembre dans le cadre du festival Ideal Trouble. Billetterie : https://bit.ly/3srSOje Évènement : https://bit.ly/3xSJ1DB A&B

“always and forever”

“Shona, (Bengali word for sweetheart, beloved) come, the Sun’s about to set,” Anika chirpily cries as she runs to the edge of the water with her hand on the straw beach hat and the camera around her neck. The rings on her left finger glistened in the Sun as it was about to start coming closer to the horizon while they were in Colva Beach in Goa. Jotaro, now her husband, smiled as he walked towards her as he wrapped his arms around her waist and she wrapped her arms around his, letting the waves kiss their feet and the salty wind slightly touch their faces. “Anika-chan, this looks beautiful,” Jotaro muttered as he looked everywhere at the crowd, the beach, and at her. She smiled, “I know. I’d been here once with my family, but this was when we were in Mumbai. That was nevertheless, a wonderful time, despite everything that happened…” Jotaro listened to her without uttering a single word, and through his peripheral vision, saw someone standing beside them. He turned to them, and asked, “Excuse me. Can you please take a picture of my wife and I?”

Even as the hat flew away, both of them laughed. They hadn’t done so like this since ages. The man nodded and used the camera around Anika’s neck. As they wrapped their arms around each other, with Anika standing in front of him, they looked into each other’s eyes, with her feeling flustered. “Your wife, huh?” She smiled. “I…I like that very very much.” Jotaro smiled, with a tint of scarlet appearing on his face. “Anika, I’d not have it any other way. Always and forever, right?” As the picture of them was being taken with her henna and conch bangles in display, something appeared at the corner of her eyes. “Always and forever, shona.” She replied, taking in this whole moment. She can’t believe she finally got to marry him after them being apart for years, and would never want to be away from him ever again.

Who Will Win The Vice Presidential Debate? We’re partnering with Ipsos to poll voters before and after the candidates take the stage. By Laura Bronner, Aaron Bycoffe, Elena Mejía and Julia Wolfe

Illustrations by Anika Orrock, Candidate Portraits by Fabio Buonocore

Tomorrow evening, Vice President Mike Pence and Sen. Kamala Harris will meet in the only scheduled vice presidential debate. Normally, vice presidential debates are lower-stakes affairs than presidential debates, but with President Trump contracting the coronavirus, the VP debate has grabbed headlines as the two remaining presidential debates hang in limbo. We’re once again partnering with Ipsos, though, to see how the debate shapes people’s views of the vice presidential contenders — and the presidential ticket as a whole — using Ipsos’s KnowledgePanel to interview the same people before and after the debate.

Most people lean towards a Biden-Harris ticket, but many still think Trump-Pence have a good chance of winning How likely respondents are to vote for each candidate and how likely they think each candidate is to win, on a scale from 0 (no chance) to 10 (absolutely certain) How likely are you to vote for each? 0 10

3.8

5.1 0 30 60% 0 30 60% 0 10 No chance Absolutely certain How likely do you think each is to win? 0 10

4.6

4.7 0 30 60% 0 30 60% 0 10 No chance Absolutely certain Respondents were also given the option of third-party candidates or ‘someone else.’ Additionally, they could indicate that they will not vote.

Similar to our poll for the first presidential debate, most respondents had strong feelings about the two presidential tickets, saying they were absolutely certain to vote for one or the other. And in line with our polling average, more people said they were likely to vote for Biden than Trump. Overall, 43 percent said they were “absolutely certain” to vote for Biden, while only 31 percent said the same for Trump.

But as was true in the first debate, Biden’s lead in voter intention didn’t translate to greater confidence in his chances of winning. Many respondents, regardless of who they planned to back, thought the race was more of a toss-up: When asked to rate the candidates’ chances of winning on a scale of 0 to 10, they gave Trump a score of 4.6 and Biden a score of 4.7, on average.

Supporters are more certain[a][b] than they are excited How likely and how excited respondents are to vote in the 2020 presidential election, by preferred candidate

Trump How likely are you to vote? Absolutely certain Very likely Not too likely Not likely at all 82% 11 6 1 How excited are you to vote? Very excited Somewhat excited Not too excited Not at all excited 45% 23 20 11

Biden How likely are you to vote? Absolutely certain Very likely Not too likely Not likely at all 86% 7 5 2 How excited are you to vote? Very excited Somewhat excited Not too excited Not at all excited 44% 22 19 15 Respondents were asked to rate how likely they were to vote for each ticket on a scale of 0-10, and their preferred ticket is the one who received the higher score. Respondents who gave both candidates the same score are not included. Respondents who already voted are included in the “absolutely certain” bucket and respondents who gave themselves a 50-50 shot of voting are included in the “not too likely” bucket.

Overall, the vast majority of respondents say they are highly motivated to vote[c][d][e]. And those who know which candidate they’re backing are especially motivated: 86 percent of Biden backers say they are “absolutely certain” to vote and 82 percent of Trump backers. In fact, that includes ten percent of Biden’s supporters who say they have already voted; for Trump’s supporters, that number is five percent. Excitement about voting is also high — almost half of each candidate’s supporters said they were “very excited” to vote and another fifth said they were “somewhat excited.”

The popularity contest How favorably respondents rated each candidate 37% 52% 45% 40% favorable unfavorable favorable unfavorable favorable unfavorable favorable unfavorable We’re also tracking how favorably respondents view Pence and Harris. Pence is not quite as unpopular as Trump — his net favorability (favorable rating minus unfavorable rating) is -14, while Trump’s is -24 in our poll. Harris, meanwhile, is almost as popular as Biden; her net favorability is +4, while Biden’s is +6. But for both vice presidential candidates, there’s a substantial group — around 11 percent in Pence’s case, and 15 percent in Harris’s — who say they have never heard of either candidate or don’t have an opinion about them. That’s, of course, more unknowns than for either of the presidential candidates, so there is a real opportunity for those favorability numbers to shift after the debate.

HarrisPence Very unfavorable Somewhat unfavorable Very favorable Somewhat favorable All the data presented here comes from polling done by Ipsos for FiveThirtyEight, using Ipsos’s KnowledgePanel, a probability-based online panel that is recruited to be representative of the U.S. population. For this study, the same group of respondents is interviewed before and after the debate to track whether and how their answers changed. An initial wave of polling was conducted before the debate began, with a follow-up wave after the debate. The first wave of the poll was conducted from Sept. 30 to Oct. 6 among a general population sample of adults, with 2,994 respondents. The poll has a margin of error of +/- 2.0 percentage points.

All Wave 1 respondents were weighted according to general population benchmarks from the U.S. Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey March 2019 Supplement. Adults are the respondent base for all charts except where otherwise noted. The respondent pool is subject to some amount of attrition from Wave 1 to Wave 2, which our weights account for.

The second wave of the poll began after the debate ended and collected data from Sept. 29 to Sept. 30 among 1,827 adults who had previously responded to the first wave; it has a margin of error of +/- 2.7 percentage points. Of those respondents, 1,337 watched some or all of the debate. All Wave 2 respondents were weighted to the same general population benchmarks as Wave 1.

Y’all has it ever happened to you (especially those who’re into creating OCs/SIs) that your OC/SI takes up a lot of mind space while developing them and all you can think of is the OCxCanon ship you’ve made in your little head and you’re not feeling like writing anything else? 😭😭😭

Yeah…that’s me right now.

A special assembly was conducted for primary students to celebrate Diwali. Senior school students, Ramesh Babu IB 12, Arul Menon IB11, and Arnav Agarwal IB11 spoke about the pollution that is caused by bursting crackers and the effect of pollution on the environment, humans, animals, and plants.  They encouraged primary students to celebrate a cracker free Diwali. The students took a pledge to bring a change this year. 

The students of Stages 1 and 2 performed dances. Shourya Sultania, Anika Agarwal, Rounav Sen, Mehek Jain, and Naila recited a poem.
