Let's talk about Vengeful. Most of the book is dedicated to:

-Marcella, her character, her revenge, her taking over the city, how she's gonna change the way EOs are seen.

-Eli, his tragic back story, honestly idgaf about him.

-Victor trying to stop his pain

-Sydney trying to bring back Serena

-June is there

-Mitch is there

-Dom is there

-Johnathan is there.

The people the book was mostly about, Marcella and Eli, die. Honestly love the way Eli went but Marcella's death was so anti climatic and pathetic, especially since she took up so much of the book. She was an interesting character, but her "kill a man in perfect make up and six inch high heels" shit was annoying yet Schwab presents her as the pinnacle of feminism.

Sydney's whole arc about being strong enough to bring back her sister goes nowhere. She thinks about bringing her back, but doesn't. She thinks about running away with June, she doesn't. The whole Serena plot line really pissed me off (forever a Serena Clarke stan she had a good heart how can you like Eli and not Serena fuck you.) Like okay, I get it. Serena was broken after the lake and even though she saved her sister (and tried to spare/save her later), she still abandoned her and wasn't there for her. The whole point is that even though Serena was a great sister all those years and loved Syd, Serena wasn't there for her so Sydney feels like she shouldn't bring her back. Unlike Victor who she brought back, who was always- wait what?

That brings us to Victor, he acts like an asshole the whole book. The bit we got in the beginning with him interacting with Syd and Mitch was my favorite part, but I just don't get why Sydney and Mitch stay with him. Okay, I get why they stay, they have nowhere else to go, but why do they take his shit? Especially Mitch. He kills good people for 5 years. Sydney, Mitch, and Dom relentlessly help him find a cure. Syd blames herself even though she's the only reason he's alive. Mitch's hacking is what keeps them afloat. Dom is the only reason Victor is safe from Eon, he gets killed. Then Victor finally gets what he wants, a cure. Plus not only did Sydney save his life again, she killed his mortal enemy, Eli. So after all that, now that he has everything he wants, he ABANDONS Mitch and Sydney. And it doesn't even seem like they're that mad about it.

June was interesting but we found out 0 about her. How did she die? Why did she want revenge? What got her here? What are her motivations? Why is this grown woman obsessed with Syd? She exists as Marcella's henchwoman and then is just a plot device so Victor attacks Marcella and not Eli. (The way her and Marcella fell out was contrived)

Johnathan was just there. Why the hell would he team up with Marcella? He had no motivation, he's probably happy he died.

TLDR: Vengeful really can't stand on its own for me and doesn't live up to the masterpiece that is Vicious. Instead of the woven timeline feeling poetic, like in Vicious, it feels contrived. And too much time is spent on characters idgaf about, or who don't matter.

Cute Vicious Headcanons:

Because sometimes I just want my faves to be happy for once. Spoiler warning for both Vicious and Vengeful, and a warning for a brief mention of panic attacks and religious trauma!

- While Victor, Sydney, Mitch, and Dol never returned to Merit until the events of Vengeful, Dominic would often come stay with them for long periods of time before he got his job at EON. These were usually comparable to vacations where they would hang out and Victor would adjust his grip on Dom’s nerves, but one time it was specifically to help him make headway on his alcoholism; between Mitch clearing their safehouse of alcohol, Sydney distracting him when cravings came, and Victor dampening triggering sensations and watching diligently to make sure he couldn’t slip away to a bar, he was eventually able to make progress on his addiction. Afterwards, the group was careful to alert Victor ahead of time before Dominic would visit so he could hide his stash or arrange to drink it elsewhere.

- Victor loves music and will unashamedly dance around if a song he likes is playing over the radio; if someone's watching he’ll be a little more reserved unless theatrics is the point (If it’s a villain song or he’s in the mood he’ll usually perform to it, as he likes the attention and it makes him feel like he’s in a movie), but if he’s alone he goes all out. Think Dr. Robonik’s dance in the Sonic movie- he’ll shimmy and sing all throughout the room/house if given the chance. Sometimes the others will join in for a proper performance; it’s a great way to get Victor to thaw out a bit because it reminds him of many hours in his youth spent happily dancing and singing around the empty Vale estate.

- For one of Victor’s birthdays, Mitch helped Sydney make a large framed print of a page of one of Victor’s favorite anatomy tomes that they had carefully blacked out into a somewhat sappy poem about family. Sydney also took a book chapter about lightning and made a surprisingly ornate blackout poem out of it that was supposed to about Victor. To this day, Victor treasures both gifts and considers them the best things he’s ever gotten.

- Victor, Sydney, Mitch, and (when he’s there) Dominic take turns picking what to do for Halloween. Typically Sydney convinces everyone to go somewhere in costume if they don’t outright trick-or-treat, but the group’s theme is left up to whoever’s in charge of the festivities. Victor usually finds some way to be the villain and will do everything in his power to keep up his all-black color scheme; his favorite costume was when he went out dressed as the reboot version of Cruella (it was a Disney Villains theme- Sydney was Hades, Mitch was Shere Khan, and Dominic was Diaval from the Maleficent movies). Sydney also once designed original supervillain/superhero costumes for them; to Victor’s chagrin, Mitch helped her make them and he was forced to participate in going to a Halloween festival dressed like comic book character. While he complained about it at the time, he secretly appreciated the gesture and thought it was cool, though he’d rather die than admit it.

- Mitch calls Dol his “wingman” because he has been hit on multiple times by other dog owners at the park while walking him. While he always turns them down, he finds the attention flattering, especially since he’s so used to people judging him for his appearance.

- Dominic is the resident “sidekick” of the group, as he’s always down for mischief, no matter whose instigating it. He’s a bit of a “follower” personality, which makes him everyone’s first choice when they need backup for something. He’s helped Victor sneak out multiple times, participated on all three sides of a Victor-Mitch-Sydney prank war, often helps Sydney with some of Mitch’s homemade homework even when he’s technically not supposed to, and once helped Mitch slip cough medicine in Victor’s water when he came down with a cold and refused to do anything about it. He’s also loyal to each cause and won’t rat out whoever he’s helping for any reason- even Victor’s threats aren’t enough to break his nerve.

- If they get in a serious argument, Mitch will absolutely pull the “breadwinner” card on Victor to keep him from doing something stupid.

- Alternatively, Sydney will absolutely pull the “I revived you from the dead” card to keep Victor from doing something stupid.

- Victor likes to call himself a “necromancee” and affectionately calls Sydney his necromancer. He thinks it’s funny and once introduced them like that to a curious barista.

- Victor originally did not get along with most of his teachers in college, as they all in some way reminded him of his parents and he just generally resented their authority. Once he arrived, Eli did a lot of networking in college for Victor and was able to improve his standing with several professors by either joining Victor whenever he had to interact with them and smoothing out any animosity or by talking with to them and spinning his rude behavior as simply Victor being shy, blunt, or introverted. Victor never outright thanked him for the help, but he did make more of an effort to play nice with the instructors after that.

- Sydney likes to draw new tattoos on Mitch with Sharpies whenever she can nab one from Victor’s stash. Victor once offered to do the same to Mitch before they went out on a supply run; Mitch was pleased until they arrived at the store and he realized that Victor had just used him to write a shopping list.

- A year or two after Eli’s arrest, Victor asks Mitch to help him find a tattoo place so he can get something in remembrance of their previous confrontation- and secretly because he sometimes misses Eli and wants to have something physical to act as a reminder. Mitch is thrilled and helps him find the perfect location, design, and parlor. He also stays with him for the whole thing, since Victor ends up mildly nervous while letting the artist touch him as they apply it. It all culminates in a small tattoo that reads “Always and forEver,” with the marked out lines crossed out like a blackout poem and just a little bit of those letters visible so the words underneath are still understandable. He gets it put over his back scar where the final bullet went through. Post-Vengeful, when Victor is away from the group, he gets three more; a flying, cawing raven behind his ear for Mitch, a trail of footprints running up his spine that fade into nothing for Dominic, and a tiny sparrow clutching a thread and anatomically accurate heart over his actual heart for Sydney.

- Dave (the guy Victor killed in Vicious) and Stell were very close buddies, with Dave looking up to Stell as a mentor figure and Stell finding him somewhere between a best friend and the son he never had. This is more of a semi-AU than a headcanon, but a concept to consider: Sydney snuck back to revive him again during Victor’s time being dead (she was careful not to let Dave see her, and he was frankly too spooked to notice; it was ruled a very miraculous recovery), and while he immediately quit the police force after that he and Stell kept in touch.

- During Eli’s time at EON, Stell would sometimes help Eli out of panic attacks that were triggered by various religious “slip-ups,” such as forgetting verses or not stopping to pray at certain times (I imagine Eli has some scrupulosity-adjacent tendencies). Because Eli’s body maintained constant homeostasis, he didn’t have things like hunger, exhaustion, or even fainting to help shake him out of it, so he would sometimes spend days kneeling in his cell, refusing to stop praying over and over for forgiveness until he felt he’d been made clean again- which never came on its own. Stell, who while not religious grew up going to church and having a religious sister, eventually began to come down to Eli’s cell to try and talk him through his attacks, which would usually work once he was able to break Eli out of the loop so he could convince himself of his covenant again and get back to work. He also did enough digging into Eli’s background to recognize some heavy religious trauma, so he eventually dragged up enough sympathy to get him a Bible in the hopes that it would give Eli the tools to pull himself out of these attacks. It surprisingly worked, though Stell still found himself occasionally having to reassure him when Eli got particularly antsy.

- Victor has broken his “all-black-clothes” rule once, when he went with Mitch and Sydney to a very popular movie that the pair had been dying to see on opening night, despite it coming out during a time when they were under a lot of pressure to fit in. While they were perfectly content to disguise themselves, they weren’t expecting Victor to and were prepared to have to leave the theater in a hurry, only to find Victor waiting by the door in a long grey cardigan, a cream-brown sweater, and fancy wire-frame glasses so he wouldn’t stand out so much in the crowd. According to Sydney, he looked like “a cottagecore college student one decade after his graduation,” while Mitch only called it “cute;” he got his foot stomped on and most of his popcorn stolen for his commentary.

- Dominic is really creative with waking Victor up from nightmares and can usually do so without getting his pain dialed up; he’s figured out that Victor’s power needs direct line-of-sight to work, so he’s taken to either poking Victor with a broom from around the corner or tossing a backpack or book over the edge of the couch/bed/chair he’s sleeping on before ducking behind it. Victor always complains about his methods, but Dominic is just glad he can escape with little more than his hair standing on end.

- Victor likes to have self-care days with Sydney; he’s always been fond of pampering himself and will even dabble in a bit of makeup from time to time. Sydney enjoys it too, as the pair will usually take over the tv while they try out new eyeshadow, do each other’s nails, etc. Victor also likes using an occasional bath bomb, as he’ll take one of his novels in the bath to work on it for a bit while he either stews in the calm or in thoughts of revenge- whatever he’s feeling up to that day.

- Mitch and Victor once arrived back to their hotel to find both Dominic and Sydney a) dressed in all black and wearing two of Victor’s coats, b) wearing a frankly ridiculous amount of black eyeshadow under their eyes, and c) with red marker smeared on their faces like blood. Turns out they were having a contest to see who could do the best Victor impression. Mitch voted for Dominic and Victor- who was too tired to protest at this point- voted for Sydney, so the deciding challenge was to see who could rant about how much they hated Eli. Sydney won and was able to keep the rant going for several minutes, with Mitch eventually having to stop her once she just started cursing him out.

—

Sydney watched him leave, his tall figure shadowing the doorway of their latest temporary home, the soft click of the front door marking his exit. Gone. She always felt a sense of melancholy in Victor’s absence, the invisible thread that tied him to her pulling taut between them, hints of an old fear prickling at the edges of her consciousness. Dol let out a small whimper at the sound of the door closing, burying his soft face into her hands.

“I know, I miss him too Dol.”

She sighed, the silence filling in the empty gaps. I hope he’s okay. What if I messed up? What if I… broke something? Victor’s ‘walks’ had become more frequent over the past few weeks, he’d spent more time away from the house and provided even fewer answers about what he was up to when questioned. He’d return hours later, a haggard look in his eyes, slinking straight off into the bathroom before disappearing for the rest of the night. When occasionally he did appear unoccupied during the day, he'd pull Mitch aside and they’d look over heaps and heaps of documents. Sydney didn’t like when they did this, she felt like they were trying to hide things from her, like she wasn’t old enough to handle whatever was going on.

She fumbled for the place in her jacket pocket where her phone should be, gently nudging Dol from her side where he lay peacefully. Sydney brandished her little flip phone like a trophy. It wasn’t the same as the old one, the one that matched with everyone else’s, but it was hers just the same. The screen lit up with just one new message: ‘ Hey Syd, went out for milk, be back soon. -Mitch’

She had been sleeping before her conversation with Victor; Mitch must have left during the time she was still with him. The rooms felt empty without them both, but at least she had Dol for company. She settled back onto the sofa, throwing a blanket down. Sydney had the feeling it was going to be a long night.

Mitch couldn’t deny that he felt guilty about hiding the truth from Sydney. He had locked eyes with Victor the moment she asked her question, and the icy glare of his returning gaze had told him everything he needed to know. Victor didn’t want her to blame herself- he of all people knew best after all, just how dangerous self loathing can be. Mitch understood his reasons, but that didn’t mean he agreed with them. He thought that lying would only build up a sense of mistrust and deceit, that honesty got you the farthest in life. He did, however, know when he wasn’t wanted in a situation, so he had slipped out the door of the apartment as soon as he got the chance. He’d left his list of potential EOs on the desk. Mitch didn’t particularly want to get in the way of Victor and his goals.

He flicked the screen of his phone up, thumbing a quick text to Sydney. She’d probably be worried when Victor inevitably left and it became apparent Mitch just wasn’t there.

Went out for milk.

It was nearing 9pm on a Tuesday and there were already 3 new cartons in the fridge, so it was a measly excuse. The low green flickering of a pharmacy sign blinked off in the distance and Mitch hoped the medical records he faked for Victor would be convincing enough.

He pushed the door open and it squeaked on its hinges, causing the person working behind the desk to look up. The small, beak nosed woman at the counter seemed to frown at his appearance- tattooed, big, thuggish, he’s heard it all- but she didn’t comment further. Mitch cleared his voice, making it sound friendly, approachable.

“Hi, I’m here to pick up a prescription.”

The woman sighed and started tapping away at a computer. “Name?”

Mitch hesitated, trying to remember which of the many false names Victor chose for this particular situation.

“Lassiter.”

“Let’s see…one prescription of Fentanyl. Let me get that for you.”

They’d tried all sorts of methods at first, even going so far as to see real medical specialists. But try as they might, no normal science could explain Victor's condition, and no normal scientist could handle the ramifications. Besides, Victor said he’d never trusted doctors anyway. The next best options were suppressants and, after his stint in that club in Dresden, any other methods of acquiring such hardcore painkillers were swiftly cut off. Mitch had his uses, and hacking into health systems in order to illegally obtain drugs was just one of them.

The pharmacist returned with a brown paper bag, the sound of plastic pill jars clacking around inside. He pulled one out just to be sure, thick orange plastic with a printed label: Fentanyl 100mcg. A tough as nails painkiller, it’s supposed to stop all pain for severe cases, but it hardly worked on Victor anymore. He said it helps to dull the ache in his head, but by this point the pain was beyond help, it’s extraordinary , in a horribly literal sense of the word.

He thanked the woman and left the store, turning to hurry back to the apartment as fast as possible. He hoped Sydney hadn't stayed up waiting for him. Their latest EO lead seems promising, but something tells him it won’t work out. Mitch knows in his heart that Victor’s going to need these pain meds very soon.

Identifying the Top NFL Running Backs by Draft Round

Running backs, despite their value in recent years being called into question, have been one of the most important positions historically. There have been a little over 2,000 running backs drafted into the NFL in the Super Bowl era. For this video, I've scoured decades of data going round by round to find the greatest and most accomplished running backs this league has ever seen. This will come as no surprise, but most of the all-time greats were drafted in round one. To get an idea of the success differences by round, I went and found the exact number of running backs drafted in each round from 1967 to 2019 and noted how many rushed for at least 5,000 yards in their career. 5,000 was an easy number that at least indicates a player was good and healthy enough to put together multiple solid seasons as a team's primary or secondary running back. It doesn't mean a player was amazing, but it's enough to show that a back was serviceable for more than half a decade. 32% of first-round running backs rushed for at least 5,000 yards in their career, meaning the majority either were busts or got injured early in their careers. Now to take it a step further, 10,000 rushing yards is a feat that very few reach. Let me quickly add a side note here: the average NFL running back's career is short, under 2.6 years. The physical demands and high injury risks are a hill that most backs won't be able to get over, and for those who do, all it takes is for a player to lose a step in their game, and now they are a backup or out of the league entirely. In 2019, Zeke Elliott, at the age of 24, was no doubt one of the best backs in the NFL. However, three years later, at age 27, no one considered him a great back, honestly, not even the best back on the Cowboys. His yards per carry had decreased dramatically. He's not even 29, and he's been a shell of himself for a few years now and served as a rotational back last year in New England. I'm not trying to pick on Zeke; this happens all the time. Remember Philip Lindsay? He had two surprise breakout seasons in 2018 and 2019. By 2021, he was a backup, and by 2023, he was in the XFL. I use these examples to illustrate how impressive the 10,000-yard feat really is. It displays both longevity, which is already rare in the NFL, and the remarkable ability to be, at the very least, an above-average starter for around a decade or more. In other words, it's no fluke. A player doesn't make it here by accident. It's not necessarily a mark worthy of the Hall of Fame, but it's getting pretty damn close. Just under 12% of first-round running backs rushed for 10,000-plus yards in their career. Despite only 11.7% reaching that mark, virtually every historical big-name running back was picked in the first round. Of the 19 Hall of Fame running backs drafted in the Super Bowl era, 16 were drafted in the first round, 14 of which were top-10 picks. However, despite this historical dominance, the effects of first-rounders are much lower in today's game. Christian McCaffrey is a total stud and is currently the best back in football, but in 2023, only one of the other top 10 NFL rushers was drafted in the first round—Najee Harris. First-round running backs are much less prevalent statistically today compared to 20 years prior when six of the top 10 rushers were first-rounders. The game and the way running backs are utilized have certainly changed. Anyways, when deciding who's the greatest first-round running back ever, there are a few different ways of examining this debate. Here's how I lay it out: The most dominant pre-Super Bowl era back is Jim Brown. Considering he won MVP as a rookie and was the best back and most likely player in the league every year he played, no one has dominated at the level Jim Brown did. The best Super Bowl era running back is a toss-up between Walter Payton and Barry Sanders. Although my vote would be for Barry to pay respect to Walter. As Ray Lewis put it, "Once you put wisdom and will on top of talent, you get what you call Sweetness—an elite blend of speed and power." Walter Payton played at an elite level well into his 30s. And for Barry, besides his superior all-time numbers, Barry stands in a class of his own in terms of ability to cut, change direction, accelerate, and juke defenders. His highlight reel is the best of all time, in my opinion. The greatest running back longevity has to go to Emmitt Smith. This dude was a starting-level running back for 15 years. Nobody argues that he was as talented or dominant as the previous guys, but the durability of this man was remarkable, and it's why he's the all-time leading rusher. For the era I witnessed, LaDainian Tomlinson and Adrian Peterson take the cake. LT had a massive influence on how modern running backs are utilized today, considering his effect on not just the run game but the pass game as well. He holds the all-time record for rushing touchdowns in a season. And of course, Adrian Peterson was a freight train in his prime. This man put the fear of God into his opponents, and nobody has had more impressive resiliency from injury. When you look at what Peterson accomplished after suffering major injuries in the NFL, it's simply astonishing. As expected, the talent and production level diminish significantly once we reach the second round. 15.33% of second-rounders compared to the 32% of first rounders reached 5,000 yards rushing in their career, and just five of those 176 backs drafted in round two are in the 10,000 Club. The most notable second-rounders in the NFL today include the top two being Derrick Henry and Nick Chubb. And then there's another class of solid guys including Jonathan Taylor, Miles Sanders, and Joe Mixon. Historically, the five names that have eclipsed 10,000 yards are Tiki Barber, Ricky Watters, LeSean McCoy, Corey Dillon, and the most statistically dominant and only second-round Hall of Fame running back as of now, Thurman Thomas. First down on that call delay for Thomas, oh, looking him spin through all the way to the 25, as one of the emotional leaders during the Bills' run to four Super Bowls, his ability to be a great rusher as well as an effective pass catcher in their no-huddle attack led Thomas to some hugely successful seasons and playoff runs, which included him winning the regular season MVP in 1991. As for today, Derrick Henry is still playing and is worthy of being considered the greatest second-round running back of all time. After serving as a rotational back for a few years in Tennessee, Henry, at his relatively massive size, exploded onto the scene in 2018 and by 2020 was the best back in football. He may have not won MVP, but he became one of just eight dudes to reach the illustrious. Read the full article

Unleashing the Swarm: A Guide to Mastering the Zerg Rush Trick

In the field of strategy games, only a few strategies are as arouse both reverence and fear like the famous "Zerg Rush." The game's origins are in the popular online strategy game StarCraft and the Zerg Rush is a strategic tactic that is marked by its constant and unstoppable assault by a myriad of low-cost units. Although it may seem simple, the execution of the successful Zerg Rush requires finesse, timing, and a thorough understanding of the game's mechanics. This article will delves into the intricacies of Zerg Rush trick, exploring its background, rules and their practical application to different strategy games.

Origins of the Zerg Rush:

The word "Zerg" originates from the insectoid alien race in StarCraft and is a reference to their capacity to quickly spawn massive quantities of units. The Zerg Rush came into existence as a method of play among the players in their own Zerg faction, which leverages their swarm-like ability to overwhelm opponents quickly and quickly. Its power is in its simplicity: sacrifice individual unit strength in exchange for supreme numerical strength.

The Core Principles:

Players should prioritize speed in resource collection and unit production in order to cover the battlefield before their opponents are able to come up with a sufficient defense. The efficiency of resource management allows for an uninterrupted flow of units, without compromising the economics.

Instead of investing in costly models, top of the line the players prefer to buy a multitude of cheap units in a jumble. The influx of units could be overwhelming for opponents who aren't ready or do not have the resources to withstand such an assault.

The act of striking when your opponents are not prepared can increase the effect by frightening them and hindering their ability to create a defense. Intentionally hiding and playing up different strategies may increase the sense of surprise.

Mastering the Zerg Rush Trick:

1. Early Game Dominance:

It is believed that the Zerg Rush is most effective in the beginning of a game when adversaries are in a position of limited resources and defenses. Players should prioritize the rapid expansion of their base, and swiftly establish multiple bases to boost their unit's production. An unwavering focus on acquiring materials and creating manufacturing facilities is essential.

2. Swarm Production:

The most important aspect of what makes Zerg Rush is the ability to rapidly spawn units. Players need to maximize their production capacities, making sure they have the constant output of units from several hatcheries, barracks or similar structures. Effective macro-management, which includes using hotkeys to queue commands and queuing commands can boost the speed of production per unit.

3. Tactical Adaptation:

Although it is true that the Zerg Rush is a formidable strategy but its success isn't certain. The ability to adjust to opponent's responses is vital regardless of whether that means taking defensive measures, or shifting to other strategies in the event that the Zerg Rush is stopped. Flexibility and flexibility are essential for sustaining tension and exploitation of weaknesses.

4. Psychological Warfare:

Beyond its strategic implications Beyond its strategic aspects, beyond its strategic aspects, Zerg Rush exerts psychological pressure on adversaries. The thought of a never-ending mass of people descending upon their bases can cause anxiety and cause confusion which could lead to errors or rash choices. The emotional reaction of the opponent could further tilt the odds to the advantage of Zerg Rusher.

Practical Application Across Games:

While Zerg Rush originated in StarCraft the principles of Zerg Rush are applicable across a wide variety of strategies, each with unique mechanics and nuances. Games such as Age of Empires, Warcraft, and Command & Conquer feature similar rush strategies, albeit with different names and in different contexts. Knowing the specific nature that each of these games have is vital in implementing and adapting your Zerg Rush effectively.

Conclusion:

Zerg Rush Zerg Rush stands as a illustration of the effectiveness of the simple strategy game. Its simple approach conceals an incredibly complex tactical structure which requires a skill in resource management timing, ad hoc, and adaptability. When it comes to commanding the insectoid hordes of Zerg or their counterparts within other game types, those who make use of the power of Zerg Rush are equipped with a formidable weapon that can turn the battle's tide in their favorable direction. As the world of strategy gaming continues to grow but the legacy of Zerg Rush endures as a iconic symbol of unrelenting force and tactical savvy.
