♔⌎ 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞: 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬
Welcome to the 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞 for the characters of 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞 for the readers.
Tumblr media
❝ Being an omega in this day and age isn’t easy, and these poor girls couldn’t have been more unlucky with enrolling at Howard College.
Some thirst for change, others merely want a way out, and the rest are too innocent to even notice their ultimate demise. ❞
𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬: ATA!Reader (starlet), CL!Reader (legacy), SOS!Reader (cherry), NF!Reader, YG!Reader (casanova), and K!Reader (pet).
𝗔/𝗡 | where I’m from, the legal drinking age is 19, and unfortunately, I wrote this story with that in mind, so even though the legal drinking age in the U.S. is 21, just bear with me. Also, I’ll probably add new members if new projects come out !! Note: all visuals made by me (crest, dividers, moodboards, etc.) but no images belong to me. 
α (alpha) |  β (beta) |  Ω (omega)
Tumblr media
𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗿 | The photos used for each reader are not meant to represent a specific ethnicity, body type or ideal—the set was created for the general vibe of the reader! I imagine the readers in their early-to-mid twenties, feel free to choose a specific age yourself.
𝐇𝐂𝐕 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬
𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬:
Tumblr media
| ATA!Reader (starlet) |  3rd Year | Ω | Theatre Arts/Drama Major | Omega Rights Activist
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | scent: an addictive union of deep coffee and vanilla with seductive hints of pear and orange blossom.
❝ And the thrill of the chase moves in mysterious ways. So in case I'm mistaken, I just wanna hear you say, "You got me baby" "Are you mine?" ❞ — Arctic Monkeys, R U Mine
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | With dreams of velvet curtains, rows of adoring fans and flashing cameras, you’ve always been fierce with an unbreakable ambition. Your rose-coloured glasses have long since shattered, and you have the unlucky gift of seeing society for what it really is—a cruel kingdom, an unfair hierarchy based on status. Always honouring the alphas, leaving everyone else to scramble for the crumbs to survive.
The world is not a place of wonder and magic, it’s crawling with monsters who have dehumanized your kind and stripped away your rights. Although, you firmly believe not all hope is lost, you will keep fighting even if no one will listen, all it takes is to try, and you haven’t failed anything yet.
Starring in: 𝐀 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐀𝐜𝐭 | #tough act: reader
Tumblr media
| CL!Reader (legacy) |  2nd Year | Ω | Kappa Phi Legacy | Natasha’s little sister | Journalism Major
About Kappa Phi: #hc: kappa
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | scent: an uplifting mix of wild strawberries, youthful vanilla and jasmine.
❝ How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you’re always flying off to blue perfection? ❞ — Rumi, the pattern improves
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | All your life, you’ve strived for the best. Spending many years following in your mother’s footsteps, idolizing her, and allowing yourself to be belittled in the process. You thought being in Kappa Phi would solve all of your problems, mend your relationship with your mother, and get you one foot into the highly competitive world of journalism, but you couldn’t be more wrong.
Unfortunately, being Kappa Phi’s newest legacy came with a few sacrifices—from yourself, both externally and internally, and ultimately, giving up all control in your life.
Starring in: 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧'𝐬 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲  |  #captains legacy: reader
Tumblr media
| SOS!Reader (cherry)  |  1st Year | Ω | Culinary Major & Aspiring Baker
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | scent: a combination of toasty warm florals, from freesia, rose and jasmine, with a lingering dash of baked sweets.
❝ Glued up, sometimes it's too much. I'm fucked up and clueless….life would be boring. Empty but no hurting (hurting). Is it necessary to touch when it's scary? ❞ — Melanie Martinez, Glued
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | Be good and do good, honour yourself and your family, have faith in the beings of the heavens. You are sheltered and introverted, never making decisions for yourself, just obeying every command of your parents. Their guidance has bled into every inch of your life—but you don’t know any better, never having the chance to create or solve things yourself. All you had to do was follow their rules and live up to any expectations, be the virtuous daughter of their dreams.
Who knew all of that micromanaging, protection, censorship and guidance would make you the perfect prey?
❝ 3 Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? 4 The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god. ❞ — Psalm 24:3-4
Starring in: 𝐒𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧’ | #sos: reader
Tumblr media
| NF!Reader  |  2nd Year | Ω | Visual Arts Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | scent: a subtle cloud of grapefruit and orange with white florals, and a bit of paint.
❝ ...and then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that is not enough, what is enough? ❞ — Vincent van Gogh
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | You love cashmere sweaters, the morning breeze and the sound of rain, the softest things hold a special place in your shy, reserved heart. A lover of the arts, but an overwhelming revere for the visual kind—sculptures, photography, painting and drawing, and even architecture.
To you, the world and its inhabitants are art, individual completed pieces, unforgeable, and remarkable in their own ways. You are art too, and you’re hanging in the Louvre. But unlike others, you are incomplete. There is an empty corner at the bottom, just waiting for a signature to finish the masterpiece—to make you into something more, an art piece that belongs to another.
Starring in: 𝐍𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐨 | #non finito: reader
Tumblr media
| YG!Reader (casanova)  |  4th Year | Ω | Howard College Cheerleader | was in a now shut down sorority | Fashion Major (Styling)
Note: casanova is in 3rd year in Young Gods, and 4th year in the rest of the fics.
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | scent: an attention-grabbing fusion with a woody, earthy and spicy base that leaves a faint trail of sweet patchouli behind.
❝ Out if the ash I rise....And I eat men like air. ❞ — Sylvia Plath, Lady Lazarus (4)
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | The seductive glamour girl, the spoiled homecoming queen, the campus brat—you’re a casanova with swaying hips and a trail of broken hearts behind you. Life was handed to you on a sparkling silver platter and at the hands of your affluent family. Practically bathing in riches, you’ve won various beauty pageants and cheerleading competitions. Being an omega is not a place of pity or loss of pride. There is an undeniable lure surrounding the lowest class—and shame is not in your vocabulary. Your status is not a curse but a blessing, omegas are sensual and captivating creatures who could own the world if they wanted but that doesn’t interest you.
You crave the perfect life with the wealth and reputation of your creditable and successful family. Even if that means an arranged marriage. Although, they never said you must be faithful, being the temptress of Howard College, you’ve had your fair share of lovers and don’t plan on being loyal anytime soon. You’d rather be caught dead than bowing at the feet of an alpha. You demand control and attention, regardless of how defiant and untamed your methods are, you will be your own god.
Starring in: 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐨𝐝𝐬 | #yg: reader
Tumblr media
| Kalopsia!Reader (pet)  |  1st Year | Ω | Dance Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | scent: a soft blend of sage and white tea, with inviting white iris and musk that never goes out of style.
❝ Instead it’s slow and insidious, slinking through you like ink through water, until it permeates every inch of your soul. ❞ — Karina Halle, A Nordic King
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | “Be careful, sweetheart, the city can be wicked” to your kind—it went unsaid in the postcards from your parents but you were timid, unscathed, and terribly gullible, so that warning went straight over your head. From a small town to living with your grandparents, you were so blissfully aware of the monsters that lurk within the skyscrapers and bustling streets, and most importantly, the darkness clouding Howard College.
A pristine freshman is the latest talk on campus, and you being an unmated omega only pushes you further into the spotlight. You were bound to catch the gaze of your new peers, including the popular, rugged, and cold-hearted alphas of the infamous fraternity, Arcadia Phi.
You wander straight into their trap, blinded by the endless beauty of the new big and bright city—or foolish naivety.

@depictedblue​​ rolled the dice ;; #15 ›» ( spotify wrapped has arrived. send me a number from 1-100 for a starter based on that song or 🎁 for a shuffled one )
         ⸻ la storia infinita by pinguini tattici nucleari
Tumblr media
The late hours of the night should have been for sleeping,  or so it was like that for most people,  except Mike,  the guy who had forgotten what it meant to sleep for more than a couple of hours per night.  Reason why there he was,  sitting on the old swing set,  a rather oversize sweater ( definitely not his ) almost keeping his whole frame hidden,  only the tip of his fingertips barely peeking through the sleeves,  & gaze focused on the dark night sky,  barely any stars in sight.
Tumblr media
At least he had company,  albeit there was silence stretching between the two of them,  it was a comfortable one,  until whispered words broke the spell,  ❝ Sometimes it feels like we are just monsters afraid to find a child under our bed. ❞  Cryptic words,  or perhaps he was simply reminiscing his lost childhood.

Dozens of deaths reveal risks of injecting sedatives into people restrained by police
At least 94 people died after they were given sedatives and restrained by police from 2012 through 2021, according to findings by the AP in collaboration with FRONTLINE (PBS) and the Howard Centers for Investigative Journalism. That’s nearly 10% of the more than 1,000 deaths identified during the investigation of people subdued by police in ways that are not supposed to be fatal. About half of the 94 who died were Black, including [Demetrio] Jackson. Behind the racial disparity is a disputed medical condition called excited delirium, which fueled the rise of sedation outside hospitals. Critics say its purported symptoms, including “superhuman strength” and high pain tolerance, play into racist stereotypes about Black people and lead to biased decisions about who needs sedation.
[...]
Paramedics drugged some people who were not a threat to themselves or others, violating treatment guidelines. Medics often didn’t know whether other drugs or alcohol were in people’s systems, although some combinations cause serious side effects. Police officers sometimes improperly encouraged paramedics to give shots to suspects they were detaining. Responders occasionally joked about the medications’ power to knock their subjects out. “Night, night” is heard on videos before deaths in California, Tennessee and Florida. Emergency medical workers, “if they aren’t careful, can simply become an extension of the police’s handcuffs, of their weapons, of their nightsticks,” said Claire Zagorski, a paramedic and an addiction researcher at the University of Texas at Austin.
[...]
In Minneapolis, an oversight agency found the use of ketamine during police calls rose dramatically from 2012 through 2017 and body-camera video showed instances of officers appearing to pressure paramedics to use ketamine and joking about its power. The department told officers they could never “suggest or demand” the use of sedation. Facing criticism, Hennepin Healthcare halted a study examining the effectiveness of ketamine on agitated patients. The Food and Drug Administration later found the research failed to protect vulnerable, intoxicated people who had not given consent. By 2021, the American College of Emergency Physicians warned ketamine impacted breathing and the heart more than previously believed.
[...]
But the AP’s findings show risks of sedation go beyond ketamine, which was used in at least 19 cases. Roughly half of the 94 deaths documented by the AP came after the use of midazolam, which has long been known to heighten the risk of respiratory depression. Many came during police encounters in California, where ketamine is not widely used. Midazolam, a common pre-surgery drug known by the brand name Versed, is also part of a three-drug cocktail used in some states to execute prisoners. Other cases involved a range of other drugs, including the antipsychotic medications haloperidol and ziprasidone, which can cause irregular heartbeats.
[...]
Yet, over time, prominent medical groups and some experts pointed to overuse of sedation during police encounters and a disproportionate impact on Black people. Even supporters of the practice have acknowledged that the wrong patients at times have been injected. The deaths of Black men in police custody, including the 2020 killing of George Floyd, put pressure on the medical community to re-examine excited delirium. The ER doctors group in 2023 withdrew approval of the 2009 paper and said excited delirium shouldn’t be used in court testimony. Some doctors called that decision political and note the group still recognizes a similar condition — hyperactive delirium with severe agitation — that can be treated with sedation. But today no major medical association legitimizes excited delirium.
[...]
In more than a dozen cases reviewed by AP, police asked for or suggested the use of sedatives, calling into question whether medics were working for law enforcement or in patients’ interests. Officers often suggested their detainees had excited delirium.

Love is the Flower You've Got to Let Grow [PHOTO EDIT]
Tumblr media
This is basically a what-if Stephen and Tony knew each other since they were kids, but they kinda drifted apart cuz shit happened.
Prompts: Treehouse, Fireworks, Streetlights
The quotes used in the edit are by Loretta Young and John Galsworthy.
AO3
A little headcanon/au idea below:
~~~~~~~~~~~
This idea is still within the MCU verse but not Endgame compliant. All the stuff in the movies still happened, but the beginning is different. Maria went on a trip with Tony and the Jarvises while Howard was busy doing SI stuff. Maria just wanted Tony to have fun and isn’t constantly grilled about what he knows by Howard.
Let’s somehow make Beverly, Stephen’s mom, be friends with Maria, so they want Stephen and Tony to meet. Howard has a winter home in the Rockies or whatever, so Maria invited the Stranges to the winter home. Tony and Stephen immediately click, having so much fun because Tony isn’t punished for doing childish things for the first time ever. Stephen has someone to play with who isn’t his sister; Donna is still a baby. 
Tony and Stephen play in the treehouse, where it’s warm inside; Jarvis and Ana are in the little sunroom next to the treehouse to keep an eye on them. Tony and Stephen have so much fun playing make-believe. Like the whole week, Stephen and Tony can be found playing in the snow and the treehouse.
A time skip to like the high school times, and Tony got early admission to college, so (some mathing is happening) Stephen as a senior who just graduated, Tony in his third year of college. Tony and Stephen kind of drifted apart between the time skip. Let’s just imagine Obadiah convincing Howard to change his mind when Maria wants to relax at their winter home and take Tony with her to have fun in the snow away from the grilling from Howard. It’s summer, and Stephen just graduated and he’s on a summer trip with his parents, but they’re letting him explore by himself. They’re in New York, and Stephen is wandering around Central Park when he sees a familiar face. Tony recognizes him too but is hesitant because what if it isn’t Stephen? Anyways, Rhodey pushes Tony into calling out for Stephen because he can tell that Tony might have feelings for him. Rhodey walks a few paces away from the two because that’s his brother with someone he doesn’t know, even though Tony knows him. Rhodey is a little overprotective because he’s witnessed many people just using Tony to get some kind of 15 minutes of fame or money. Stephen and Tony end up watching the fireworks that go off at night. That’s also the same night that Rhodey knows the two are meant to be, but the timing isn’t fitting, like it’s not time for them to be a couple yet.
Another time skip, and again isn’t time yet for Tony and Stephen to be a couple, and they know it.  It’s been a few years since the last time they met. Stephen has graduated pre-med and is now in med school. Tony has graduated and is taking the reins of Stark Industries a few years after the death of his parents. The two just happened to see each other as they walked the sidewalks in downtown new york. They also end up spending a few hours together. It’s nighttime and theyre at central park and under a lamp, they kiss. They know that they love each other, but it isn’t time yet. They kiss as a promise to find each other in the future.
Bonus Time Skip:
Many times skip later, and it’s post Endgame, and Tony is still alive. During Infinity War, when Pepper and Tony were at Central Park, they were just sharing their wedding dreams. Pepper thinking about her future wedding plans for her, Happy and May, and Tony thinking about Stephen and what their wedding might look like. Again, Peter Quill and Rocket remembered how the Guardians dealt with the Power Stone and got everyone to hold hands with Tony, so the energy from the Infinity Stones isn’t all following into Tony. Tony wakes up in a hospital bed and Stephen is asleep in a chair next to his bed. Stephen wakes up when Tony places his hand on top of Stephen’s head. Stephen abruptly stands and passionately kisses Tony right on the lips. After they kiss, Tony all of a sudden proposes on the spot. Stephen says yes. Tony convinces Stephen to get on the hospital bed so they can cuddle. Rhodey who also happens to be in the room is like “Oof this is deja vu with the rooftop scene all over again.”

OC Name Meanings
Tagged by @pikapeppa, thank you! 🥰
Tagging @ir0n-angel, @lilbittymonster, @bogunicorn and @espressocomfort. No pressure!
Rules: Search and post the meaning of your OC's name (if you made their name up or they go by a nickname, post an explanation of how it came to you)! bonus if you can find something for their last name too.
Right, so...I have a lot of OC's. Holy crap, did this get long. I'll go by fandom to keep them organized, and listed here are just the main player types, not background characters. And if you want to know more about any of them, they can all be found here.
Fallout 4
Nora Howard (Junkyard 'Verse series): My first SoSu. Nora is the default name and I struggled for a long time to come up with a last name for her. At the time, I thought it would be funny for her to share a name with Todd Howard, and then it stuck.
Valara Thorsgaard (Set to Repeat, Subject to Change): Lamb the Younger gave me the first name and I liked it. Val, for short. The Scandinavian last name was just...I dunno, it felt right?
Honoria Wilcox (No One Knows): 'Honoria' is a version of Nora. Her maiden name was Beaufort, because it was slightly pretentious and so was Honoria's mother. Wilcox was her late husband's name and she was glad to take it.
Eleanor (Nights series): Another Nora variant, no last name.
Joan Whitfield (The Bargain): I wanted something different for this OC since she ends up with Kellogg. (All my Nora variants end up with Hancock.) The first name comes from my extended family, and the last name sounds lawyerish. 😆
Tien Xu (Unexpected): Ahh, the SoSu from my first real AU. She's a Chinese prisoner of war who ended up in the Vault. No real reason for her given name, but 'Tien' was my favorite chemistry professor's last name back when I was in college.
Alice Monroe (Amends to the Dead): My most recent SoSu. From the get go I wanted her to be a badass, because let's face it, you get pretty OP'd with some of those skills in-game. 'Alice' is a nod to Resident Evil. 'Monroe' is just because it sounded good.
Mass Effect Trilogy
Jayne Shepard (Soldier, Spectre, Savior series): It's the default FemShep name, but I changed the spelling. That's really it.
Jehanne Shepard (Some Kind of Resolution): Henna, for short. Jehanne is a phonetic variant of Jane.
The Wayhaven Chronicles
Aya Batra (Little Things): Batra is one of the surnames you can choose when making your Detective, but Aya was my own invention. It's a variation of an old D&D character (Aeo, who in turn is a variation on Io). Someday I want to write more for her.
Dragon Age
(oh boy, here we go)
Da'Fen Carlisle Mayers Lavellan (Until It Squeaks series): Carly, to her friends. My first MGIT. When I created her I wanted her to be a 'just some person' kind of character, so she needed a name that didn't stand out much. Tbh, I don't even like it. I think I was halfway through writing Twist when I decided it was short for Carlisle, which eased my meh a little. Then as time went on in the story, she earned the rest. Abelas was the first to call her 'Da'Fen' because she was the Consort of Fen'Harel, and she was formally adopted into Clan Lavellan after the events of the main game.
Imogen McLean (Wicked Things series): My ex wouldn't let me name Lamb the Younger Imogen when she was born, so I decided I would save it for a character someday. And so I did. 'McLean' because she's of Irish descent, and I knew a girl by that family name when I was a kid.
Eliana Hawke (Wicked Things series): I tend to give my F!Hawkes unique names, I guess. But this one was for the purpose of Imogen getting to call her Elly and Elly getting to call her Genny. It was a deliberate 'the names you use denote intimacy level' kind of thing.
Terisin Mahariel (Wicked Things series): It means 'Flint-like'. I wanted something hefty for the HoF, something that would give the impression of gravity and determination. And then everyone in the fic shortens it to 'Ter'. 🤣
Mira Foret (Driftwood series): This is actually a nickname, her full name is Almira. Her family name on Earth was 'Wood', and upon being transported to Thedas, she changed it to 'Foret', which is the Orlesian version of the word. There is actually a reason she has these names in particular, but that gets into level 40 IRL stuff, so I shan't say.
Carmilla Hawke (Maker Damned Fools): Cara, for short, and only if you have her permission. Back when I first wrote MDF, I had a notion that Leandra wanted to give all her children names beginning with the same letter. "How'd Bethany happen?" Varric asked. Because they didn't know they were having twins and had to come up with a name on the fly and Malcolm had a twisted sense of humor. It makes more sense in the fic. Anyway, she hates the name, and thus goes mostly by Hawke.
Hera Trevelyan (No More My Heart Beats Without You): I just liked it. Didn't even know it was the default name of F!Adaar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ellisora Lavellan (Flowers For Fen'Harel series): Everyone uses Ellana. It's the default. I don't like defaults (usually) and will twist them around any which way until I find something I do like.
Sa'vir Lavellan (No Strings): It means 'the First Path' or, more precisely for her character, 'the Only Way'. It was both to give some backstory to her and was a nod to her being inspired by The Unending Wake's Vir.
Lahalaan Lavellan (My Blood On Your Hands, Your Teeth In My Skin): Ahh, my poor Laani. She kicked around as an OC for a long time before I finally was able to write something for her. She was always meant to have a longfic, but it never happened. It means 'Like the Foxes', and it suits her as a redhead and a rogue class.
La'Vise Lavellan (Just Like Fire): The title of the fic is the definition of the name. She is my one canon story. I am utterly unsurprised at myself for not finishing it.
Lark Cadash (All the Earth and Air series): Again, default is bleh. Malika > Lika > Lark. Then I leaned into the bird symbolism.
Shae Cadash (Destiny Is Just In the Timing): This is apparently a popular name for a Cadash, lol. In order to set her apart (both in fandom and in my head), it's actually a nickname. Her full name is Shaelgat, meaning 'Unto Shale', and it has Lore(tm). A daughter of every generation is named this, and will be until they find the golem they're named after.
Banal'ras Nydha, the Twice-Born (Hope Is a Fragile Thing): She's actually a MGIT, who was given the name 'the Shadow of Night' by Solas in the Fade before she became corporeal in Thedas. She has a shtick that goes with it, the ability to use Fade cloak even though she isn't a mage otherwise. Ya know, like Cole. Her story and name are part and parcel with each other and mostly because I wanted to make an OC who was Deeply Mysterious(tm) without ever explaining it. The legend-mark comes from the Avvar, among whom she lives at the start of her fic.
(we're almost done)
Virlas Lavellan (I'll tell you my sins (and you can sharpen your knife)): Default, bleh. Symbolically fitting name, yay. It means 'the Way That is Given' or something like that. This was a giftfic turned treat for the Solavellan Hell Exchange, and I didn't think too hard about the name other than something that would fit for a post-canon Lavellan.
Rinna Cadash (What Lies Beneath): Another giftfic OC. Dwarven names tend towards being short and this one just felt right.
Eshali'nan Lavellan (A Wolf Named Vengeance): This fic is a modern AU collab with my beloved Angel, and someday we'll finish it, lol. Esha, for short, was another OC that kicked around for a long time like Laani. She has quite a backstory that will likely never get told because frankly, I'm tired of writing DA retellings. Originally she was a Sentinel in Arlathan, who spent most of the intervening years in uthenera like Solas, but woke a generation ago. She lived with the Lavellan clan and was chosen to go to the Conclave. The name means 'Daughter of Vengeance' and was chosen for her at her elevation to Sentinel status.
Great googly moogly, I have too many OC's...

labyrinth for the wip game!!!
"Labyrinth" is the name of my 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' AU — named for the Taylor Swift song of the same name bc it's literally the fic in a nutshell lmao. I've already written the summary:
Devastated by his breakup with Patrick, David gives up Rose Apothecary and moves back to New York in an attempt to move on with his life. There, he’s introduced to Dr. Howard Mierzwaik, who claims to have the solution to his heartache: simply erase his fraught relationship from his memories. Convinced it’s the only way he can move forward, David agrees. However, once the process begins and he’s immersed in his memories of Patrick, David realizes that forgetting their relationship is the last thing he wants. 
Here is a snippet:
"You’re in a car with a beautiful boy.” 
David opens his eyes and he’s in Patrick’s car on the night of his birthday. He remembers so vividly how the moonlight streaming through the windshield caught Patrick’s warm, brown eyes and turned them into caramel. 
“You’re in a car with a beautiful boy,” Dream Patrick recites, “and you’re trying not to tell him that you love him, and you’re trying to choke down the feeling, and you’re trembling…”
This isn’t how the memory goes. In reality, Patrick had needled him gently, like always, until David kissed him; he hadn't recited a Richard Siken poem. Still, this is the verse David thought about for days after that first kiss. It touches him far more now than it had when he’d first read Crush in college. Hearing it in Patrick’s voice now, even though it’s just his ghost — a fading memory — is cruel torture.
“But he reaches over and he touches you,” Patrick continues anyway, “like a prayer for which no words exist…”
David blinks tears from his eyes. “And you feel your heart taking root in your body,” he finishes, “like you’ve discovered something you didn’t even have a name for.”
Patrick just smiles that gentle smile of his. “This is the part where you kiss me.”
So, David does. He leans into the memory, placing his hand on the back of Patrick’s neck and kissing him for the first (last) time. It’s not their most passionate kiss, those come later — he’s already re-lived those — but it still might be the best kiss David’s ever experienced. Patrick kisses him softly, like a prayer for which no words exist, like no one before him ever had. It feels like a beginning, and David feels his chest crack open knowing that, tonight, it’s actually the end. 
When he pulls away, Patrick smiles like David just changed his life, and, fuck, David wishes he didn’t have to forget this smile. He reaches out and traces his thumb below Patrick’s lips. “Let me keep this,” he whispers — to himself, to the people standing around his bed, to God, he has no idea — “Let me keep this one.” 
“Wake up, David,” Patrick whispers back.
He shakes his head. “Will you be there when I do?”
“Only one way to find out.”
“I don’t want this,” he admits. “I don’t want to forget you.”
Dream Patrick kisses his forehead. “Then wake up.”

Stark Stables
https://archiveofourown.org/works/49428697 by wardog_of_the_endless Howard Stark is the third man in his family to breed and sell massive amounts of cavalry stock to the military but he wants something more lucrative than that. Thoroughbred racing is the sport of kings. And so he builds a kingdom. Tony Stark has been exercise riding and training since he was 12. When he suddenly returns from college, leaving his Polo string (and team) behind, Rhodey suspects something is wrong. As usual, Rhodey's right. Tony's home because James and he have split up, and James is on the Polo Team, so Tony wants to be anywhere else. The fact that his favorite horse is about to return to the track is a convenient excuse, but it probably won't fly for long.   Part of an Equine Avengers Verse Idea...

Love is the Flower You've Got to Let Grow
Tumblr media
My fifth piece for IronStrange Spring Fling.
Prompts: Treehouse, Fireworks, Streetlights
The quotes used in the edit are by Loretta Young and John Galsworthy.
A little headcanon/au idea below:
This idea is still within the MCU verse but not Endgame compliant. All the stuff in the movies still happened, but the beginning is different. Maria went on a trip with Tony and the Jarvises while Howard was busy doing SI stuff. Maria just wanted Tony to have fun and isn’t constantly grilled about what he knows by Howard.
Let’s somehow make Beverly, Stephen’s mom, be friends with Maria, so they want Stephen and Tony to meet. Howard has a winter home in the Rockies or whatever, so Maria invited the Stranges to the winter home. Tony and Stephen immediately click, having so much fun because Tony isn’t punished for doing childish things for the first time ever. Stephen has someone to play with who isn’t his sister; Donna is still a baby. 
Tony and Stephen play in the treehouse, where it’s warm inside; Jarvis and Ana are in the little sunroom next to the treehouse to keep an eye on them. Tony and Stephen have so much fun playing make-believe. Like the whole week, Stephen and Tony can be found playing in the snow and the treehouse.
A time skip to like the high school times, and Tony got early admission to college, so (some mathing is happening) Stephen as a senior who just graduated, Tony in his third year of college. Tony and Stephen kind of drifted apart between the time skip. Let’s just imagine Obadiah convincing Howard to change his mind when Maria wants to relax at their winter home and take Tony with her to have fun in the snow away from the grilling from Howard. It’s summer, and Stephen just graduated and he’s on a summer trip with his parents, but they’re letting him explore by himself. They're in New York, and Stephen is wandering around Central Park when he sees a familiar face. Tony recognizes him too but is hesitant because what if it isn’t Stephen? Anyways, Rhodey pushes Tony into calling out for Stephen because he can tell that Tony might have feelings for him. Rhodey walks a few paces away from the two because that’s his brother with someone he doesn’t know, even though Tony knows him. Rhodey is a little overprotective because he’s witnessed many people just using Tony to get some kind of 15 minutes of fame or money. Stephen and Tony end up watching the fireworks that go off at night. That’s also the same night that Rhodey knows the two are meant to be, but the timing isn’t fitting, like it’s not time for them to be a couple yet.
Another time skip, and again isn’t time yet for Tony and Stephen to be a couple, and they know it.  It’s been a few years since the last time they met. Stephen has graduated pre-med and is now in med school. Tony has graduated and is taking the reins of Stark Industries a few years after the death of his parents. The two just happened to see each other as they walked the sidewalks in downtown new york. They also end up spending a few hours together. It’s nighttime and theyre at central park and under a lamp, they kiss. They know that they love each other, but it isn’t time yet. They kiss as a promise to find each other in the future.
Bonus Time Skip:
Many times skip later, and it’s post Endgame, and Tony is still alive. During Infinity War, when Pepper and Tony were at Central Park, they were just sharing their wedding dreams. Pepper thinking about her future wedding plans for her, Happy and May, and Tony thinking about Stephen and what their wedding might look like. Again, Peter Quill and Rocket remembered how the Guardians dealt with the Power Stone and got everyone to hold hands with Tony, so the energy from the Infinity Stones isn’t all following into Tony. Tony wakes up in a hospital bed and Stephen is asleep in a chair next to his bed. Stephen wakes up when Tony places his hand on top of Stephen’s head. Stephen abruptly stands and passionately kisses Tony right on the lips. After they kiss, Tony all of a sudden proposes on the spot. Stephen says yes. Tony convinces Stephen to get on the hospital bed so they can cuddle. Rhodey who also happens to be in the room is like “Oof this is deja vu with the rooftop scene all over again.”

♔⌎ 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞: 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐏𝐡𝐢
Welcome to the 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞 for the characters of 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞 for Arcadia Phi.
Tumblr media
❝ With the college motto, “Where Leaders are Made,” Arcadia Phi is where those leaders become gods.
Founded in 1889 and strictly for alphas, Arcadia Phi is one of the most renowned fraternities in the country with a record of famous alumnis, celebrities and successful elites worldwide. To be in Arcadia is to be given a seat at the golden table, honoured with a title that lasts a lifetime, and the opportunity to “Rise Above All.” ❞
𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬: Steve Rogers, Ari Levinson, Curtis Everett, Ransom Drysdale, Bucky Barnes, Andy Barber, Johnny Storm, Bryce Langley, Colin Shea, Nick Fowler, Ryan Ackerman, Sam Wilson, Thor Odinson, and Steve Kemp. 𝐀𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐧𝐢: Lloyd Hansen.
𝗔/𝗡 | a good bunch of these characters took years off before attending Howard College, some of it will be explained in the fics. where I’m from, the legal drinking age is 19, and unfortunately, I wrote this story with that in mind, so even though the legal drinking age in the U.S. is 21, just bear with me. Also, I’ll probably add new members if new projects come out !! Note: all visuals made by me (crest, dividers, moodboards, etc.) but no images belong to me.

Tumblr media
| Ari Levinson | 4th Year, 24 | α | Arcadia Phi President | Underground Boxer | Business Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | 6’8, scent: a powerful sensual mixture of cedar wood, oak moss, and patchouli, with a linger of cigarettes.
❝ Falling in my den. Full of lions, full of breath. Take the muzzle from their heads. I'm a sucker for revenge. ❞ — The Marías, Hush
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | His family name is notable for vile reasons, and with the fortune built off of omega breeding programs, Ari has been surrounded by greed and suffering his whole life. His father is in prison, his mother is a few hours away in a luxury condo, and only-child-Ari became a freshman at Howard College a few years later than others in his year. Worshipped yet covert, his name is spoken in whispers of wonder or fear and with his quick popularity, it wasn’t long until he was promoted to president of Arcadia Phi.
Honour isn’t a grace to him, it is only earned and he prides himself in being the judge of who deserves it. In his cold, mean blue eyes, omegas are never more than their designation—and anyone who believes such will be taught the truth.

| Steve Rogers | 3rd Year, 22 | α | Arcadia Phi Vice President | Howard College Football Team Captain | Sports Psychology Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | 6’6, scent: an unmistakable and intense musk, both woody and smokey with a hint of sea salt.
❝ Pretty little face stopped me in my tracks. But now she sleeps with one eye open. That's the price she'll pay. ❞ — Florence + the Machine, Girl With One Eye
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | Adopted by the Drysdale-Thrombey’s when he was just a child, Steve has grown into the picture perfect alpha of the family. With a natural captivating talent, he draws all of the attention whenever he enters a room. After taking years off and exploring the world with his adoptive brother, Ransom, they both enrolled in Howard College.
Steve is the golden boy of the school and the star football captain, and a legend in the making. He’s going to be big one day, and his college life will be his origin story. The only missing piece is someone to share his future with.
Starring in: 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧'𝐬 𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲 & 𝐊𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐬𝐢𝐚 | #captains legacy: steve
Tumblr media
| Curtis Everett | 2nd Year, 21 | α | Howard College Swim Team | Industrial Engineering Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | 6’6, scent: deep patchouli with compliments of bergamot and lavender, sometimes with a hint of cigarettes.
❝ I carry band-aids on me now. For when your soft hands hit the jagged ground….Promise I won't push you straight to the dirt. If you promise me, you'll take them off first. ❞ — Melanie Martinez, Training Wheels
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | Curtis was the black sheep of his posh, old money-rich and extremely religious family, which led to him bouncing between extended family for years before landing in Howard College. The local cops know him by name, although his record is as clean as a whistle. Whether it’s his status, or ruthless arrogance, he’s managed to stay out of handcuffs despite his revolt (as for pleasure, he’s usually the one to slap the cuffs on someone’s wrists).
He isn’t picky but he is experienced, and one would expect his partners would be somewhere on that range too, given the number of names he’s added to the slut walk list in the Arcadia house—but what’s the point of having so much knowledge of you don’t teach it?
❝ 1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made…. 4 "You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. 5 "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." ❞ — Genesis 3:1-5
Starring in: 𝐒𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧’ & 𝐊𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐬𝐢𝐚 | #sos: curtis
Tumblr media
| Ransom Drysdale | 2nd Year, 22 | α | Communications Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | 6’5, scent: a woody vanilla combination with whiffs of citrus and tobacco.
❝ It took thirteen beaches to find one empty. But finally, it's mine. With drippin' peaches, I'm camera ready. Almost all the time. ❞ — Lana Del Rey, 13 Beaches
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | He was the sole heir to the family fortune before getting an adoptive brother. A life of opulence and security, whenever he wants something, it isn’t long until he is gifted that very thing. That lack of patience has led to a selfish, cocky and boastful attitude.
To Ransom, there is nothing to be ashamed of or reserved about. Everything he does is unabashed and confident, every one of his words are spoken to be heard, and every action to be witnessed. He knows he deserves to be praised and admired—like a statue of priceless marble in a museum.
Starring in: 𝐍𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐨 & 𝐊𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐬𝐢𝐚 | #hc: ransom
Tumblr media
| Andy Barber | 4th Year, 23 | α | Howard College Football Team | Political Science Major
𝗢𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗻��𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | 6’6, scent: layers of cashmere, almond and smooth vanilla with a dash of cocoa.
❝ You got me thinking that I was too mean. Well, everything that I say I believe. Tuck a knife with my heart up my sleeve…. I've been corrupted. And by now I don't need a fucking introduction. ❞ — Halsey, Lilith
𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 | The former Arcadia Phi president and one of the eldest of the fraternity, known as the future lawyer, Andy is crisp and charming with a Boston background. Although he has a strict personality, he doesn’t carry himself with the same sadism as his fraternity brothers.
Andy is a simple man, he wants simple things, and one of those is to be obeyed. He doesn’t take rebellion easily, but a little bratty behaviour can be quite entertaining.

“Tony” Anthony Edward Stark
appearance: 5’9”, dark hair, brown eyes gender: male, he/him orientation: asexual biromantic (nonhuman being inclusive) occupation: inventor, CEO of Stark Industries, vigilante superhero health: alcoholic, abuse survivor, PTSD, bipolar disorder
History
[[tw: alcoholism, rape, abuse, child neglect, acephobia]]
Tony grew up feeling very alone.  His father spent all his free time chasing after Captain America.  When he wasn’t looking for the super soldier, he was talking about him or shooing Tony away for other reasons, and it gave Tony a bit of a complex.  He was given his first drink, by Howard, when he was nine. His mother was always cold and distant, and he couldn’t say he knew anything about her until he was a teenager.  Aunt Peggy came around sometimes, but Edwin and Ana were the only people he ever really thought of as a parents. The endless boarding schools that took him out of contact with his family didn’t help any of this.
His father gave him the birds and bees talk when he was 12, but he didn’t really get it and Jarvis didn’t explain the ‘mysterious urges’ any better.  By the time he hit college, he’d decided that it was better to just pretend—to do what everyone else was doing.  And he may have overdone it.  A lot.  He started dating his childhood friend, Tyberius Stone, when he was about 19, and it took him three years to get out of it.  Ty was abusive and petty and isolated him from everyone else.  During those three years, he was repeatedly raped and emotionally abused.  Rhodey got Ty thrown in jail, but it didn’t last as long as anyone could’ve hoped, and Tony lives in semi-constant fear of him. 
When Tony finally found out about asexuality, he came out really quickly and it blew up the news.  Articles, supportive and not, were across all the papers and news sites and many people still believe it was some kind of publicity stunt.  Tony spends a lot of time hanging out on ace blogs, offering advice and just spreading positivity. 
Relationships
Tony likes dating people who can take charge.  Knowing that the person he’s with could run the world if the responsibility fell into their laps makes him feel a lot safer and more comfortable.  He needs someone who can help manage his shit and keep him in the shape of a functional human being.  Anyone he dates also needs to be okay with no sex.  Although Tony does have sex, he usually only does it when he’s drunk and craving human contact and can’t see another way to get it.  He does not like orgasms and generally finds it easier to avoid sex entirely than to explain that.  
He’s definitely okay with BDSM or dom/sub relationships, but after Ty, he doesn’t have the best experience with it, so he needs a lot of aftercare.  
Tony also doesn’t have casual friends.  He has acquaintances and people he works with and then he has people he’s decided to never let go of.  It’s a lot of work being one of the people he clings to and the transition into becoming one of them often involves a lot of testing from Tony, which isn’t pleasant.  He will push people away quite a lot before he ever lets them get close.  However, if Tony trusts a person, that trust is almost absolute.

EMELINE ENTWISTLE age 31 height 5'10 face Blake Lively shipping: semi-open
Tumblr media
About
A socialite turned actress, Emeline is the quintessential ingenue story. Daughter of ruthless high end businessman Howard Entwistle, she is of old money but a genuine taste for talent who made her rise to fame out of the shade of Night City; the entertainment district is where her roots began. While she is a famous name, Emeline still resides in the city when she is not on location filming. She is a natural in acting and a bright light in fashion. Despite her family status, Emeline never held it over the heads of others and craves to keep a reputable reputation despite some seedy personal choices and lies.

Connections Emeline's family consists of Howard Entwistle, mainly absent from her life currently due to his out of country business exploits and his penchant for oil. Her mother Leslie Entwistle divorced her father five years ago and is living in Paris, spending the alimony she receives from Howard.
Relationships are few for her. She doesn't let many people get close as many are after her due to her fame.

In some ways Emeline believes she made a mistake cheating on Landon Wynter but she won't get that time back. However, she still harbors feelings for the photojournalist despite her transgressions.

Tumblr media
SCENE 1 : Repetition Hall's - Will and the Cast
Ringtone - Will hanging a poster to recruit in the Glee Club.
Finn and Quinn followed in chorus by the Cast- Song : Don't Stop Belivin'
In the repetition hall's, Will rehearsed the cast with couple lighthouse Quinn and Finn.
Suddenly, Quinn nausea and leaves.
Will : Quinn, you OK?
Quinn ran out.
Finn : I think she just had a bad breakfast burrito.
Kurt : Can we please talk about the giant elephant in the room?
Santana : Your sexuality?
Kurt : Rachel. We can't do it without her.
Will : That's not true. We may have to layer Santana Mercedes over Quinn's solo, but...we'll be fine.
Artie : Maybe for the invitationals, but not for the sectionals and certainly not the regionals.
Puck : The wheelchair kid's right. That Rachel chick wants me wanna light myself on fire, but she can sing.
Will : Rachel left, guys. She's gone. If we want to make this thing work, we can't look back. Alright, take five minutes.
Will goes to the piano while the Glee Club gathers. Finn, he goes to Will.
Finn : Mr Shue? I don’t want to tell you how to do your job, but with all the dancing around that Quinn's doing, I’m kind of worried about the baby.
Will : Yeah. Yeah, I get it. Um... how about I give Tina a few of her verses, okay?
Finn : Okay.
Will : You think you might want to tell your mom about what's going on?
Finn : I think I'd rather handle it myself right now. My mom's got enough to worry about.
Will is helpless in the situation.
SCENE 2 : Restaurant - Will, Terri and the server
Will and Terri moved to a table, while Terri swallows tons of cakes.
Will : How come you haven’t had any morning sickness? Quinn Fabray has been upchucking every 15 minutes.
Terri : Really? That’s a really good sign. That means the baby's not a Mongoloid.
Will : Well, is it bad that you haven't been sick then?
Terri : Oh, no, honey, no, no. You should ask Howard Bamboo about my Linda Blair impersonations every half hour at work.
Terri smiled at Will worried.
Will : I don't know what I'm gonna do about this whole Rachel thing.
Server approach.
Server : Hey. Would you like anything else?
Terri : Another piece of grasshopper pie.
Server : What, are you going for the record?
Terri : I'm with child.
The server notes the command embarrassed.
Will : Hey, did you go to McKinley High? I think I had you in my Spanish class.
Server : Yeah, like, five years ago. I go to Carmel now.
Will : How is that possible? You must be 22.
Server : (Laughs) ... Twenty-four. I'm a sixth-year senior. They keep failing me so I can stay in Vocal Adrenaline.
Will : They fail you on purpose?
Server : Yeah.
Will : Is that legal?
Server : I'm the only one who can do the triple flip.
Terri : Yeah. Hey, how about that other piece of pie?
Server : How about it.
The server goes in front of shocked Will. Then, Will uses a piece of pie on the plate Terri always thoughtful.
Terri : Honey, are you all right?
Will : ... Yeah. Fine.
Will smiles.
SCENE 3 : Emma office's - Finn, Emma and Will
Finn sat facing Emma tense.
Finn : So... have I done something wrong... or...?
Emma : Oh, no. No, no. Absolutely not. No, um, actually, I've just, um, taken a special interest in you. Look, I know sometimes that life can come at you pretty fast, and, uh, you reach a point where you might just need a little, um, special guidance.
Finn : Has someone told you something about my personal life?
Emma : No. Mm-mm.
[Flash Back]
Moments earlier, Will in the office talking to Emma.
Will : Can you keep a secret?
[Back to reality]
Emma : But, you know, there are very few students that ever get athletic scholarships. Okay? But there are a lot of schools that give full rides to students who excel in music. Students like yourself. And I don't know, maybe if you were able to go to college, you wouldn't, say, end up stuck in this town in a dead-end job living hand- to-mouth with a wife and a kid you never intended to have, you know? For example. That's just something off the top of my head.
Finn : So you think if I stuck with Glee that I could get a scholarship?
Emma : It’s definitely a possibility. You know? And if you did well at regionals, maybe you could, um, generate some interest.
Finn : But we lost Rachel. Do you think we can do it without her?
Emma : Sure.
[Flash Back]
Moments before, Emma and Will talking in the corridors.
Will : Do you think we can win regionals without Rachel?
Emma : Well, remember the Jamaican bobsled team? Big long shots.
Emma went away.
[Back to reality]
Emma smiling face Finn worried.
Emma : ... Definitely. But if you're concerned about your future and, um, those who may be a part of your future soon, um, maybe you could just give Rachel a talk. You know, see if you can get her to come back.
Finn nodding while the school bell rang.
SCENE 4 : Repetition Hall's - Jacob, Rachel, Sandy and Finn
Rachel interview by Jacob for the Gazette's high school at the microphone.
Jacob : How does it feel to be just a sophomore and get the lead in the school musical?
Rachel : It's an honor. Frankly, one I feel I've earned. If there's anything I've learned in my 16 years on the stage, it's that stars are rare, and when they're found, you have to let them shine.
Jacob stop recording.
Jacob : ... Mm. Show me your bra.
Rachel : You mean the one I'm wearing?
Jacob : Quid pro quo, Rachel. If you want a good review, show me your over the shoulder boulder holder.
Rachel : No way. You can't do that. My performance will stand on its own. Besides, no one reads the school paper, anyway.
Jacob : Oh, but I'll post my scathing review online. You'll be finished on the high school stage. Now, get those sweater puppies out of their cashmere cage.
Rachel rising annoyed.
Jacob : Mm...
At this time, Sandy enters the room running.
Sandy : Sorry I'm late. My Vespa had a flat.(Jacob got up and arranging his affairs.)Give me a minute and I will be ready for my interview.
Jacob : We're actually not gonna need any quotes from you for the article, Mr Ryerson. Do the right thing. All the great actresses take their clothes off.
Sandy : Well, I have no problem with nudity. Let me tell you about « My planned production of Equus. » Have you ever hung out at a stable?
Sandy was driving Jacob out, as Rachel sits down. Finn enters the room and sees Rachel.
Finn : Hey, what are you doing?
Rachel : Nothing. Uh, just... getting the star treatment I didn't get in Glee.
Finn : Totally.
Rachel : It's times like this where I know I've chosen the right path. I'm never going back to Glee. It's clear my talent is too big for an ensemble.
Finn approached her.
Finn : Not gonna get an argument from me.
Rachel : I'm not?
Finn : No. You're, like, the most talented person I know. Even more than that guy at the mall who can juggle chain saws. I just wanted to let you know that if you need someone to run lines with, I'm available.
Rachel : Th ....There is a lot of dialogue.
Finn : I figured... we could go somewhere quiet, maybe with low lighting and... Let me know.
Finn goes off leaving Rachel with a smile.
SCENE 5 : Will office's - Will and Emma
Emma sits opposite to Will with a folder in his hand.
Emma : I could get fired for this.
Will : She was a student 15 years ago. No one is gonna care.
Emma : Okay.
Emma, hesitant, he reluctantly gives the folder. Then, Will, impatient, browse the folder with a smile.
Will : I....I knew it. She never graduated. She....she quit with, like, three credits to go.
Emma : Will. Yeah, I, um, I saw her picture in the folder. Pretty.
Will : Pretty? Mm. April Rhodes was a goddess. The most talented performer in McKinley Glee Club history. When she sang, it was mesmerizing. She was my first crush.I was a freshman,...
Emma : Wait...
Will : ... she was a senior.
Emma : Wait, hold on, 'cause I thought you said your wife was your first crush.
Will : Well, yeah, that's because April didn't even look at me. Aw, crap, there's no forwarding address.
Emma : S....So then you've....you've had feelings for someone other than your wife.
Will : Emma, I'd love to play This Is Your Life, but... (Typing on his computer.) Lord Google demands my attention.
Emma rising.
Emma : Okay, just wait....wait. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Um, reaching back into your past is a dangerous business, okay? People can change. They can, um, disappoint you...
Will : I think I can handle it.
Emma : I thought I could, too. Just hear me out, hear me out. A few years ago, I started an online flirtation with a high school flame Andy. Things got weird, and I called it off. And two months later... ...Versace was dead. Dead.
Will returning to his computer.
Will : Okay.... April Rhodes... Ohio. Oh! She has a MySpace page.
Emma : Oh, God.
Emma placing behind Will.
Will : Oh, and here's a link to her own personal Web site. She's online. "Hi, April."Not sure if you remember me, but my name is Will Schuester."
Emma : 35 Bontempo Road, between 2:00 and 3:00.
Will : Oh! Oh!
Emma : Bring buffalo wings.

Will : April.
April : Hello. Are you Will?

April : Come on in.
Will enters a huge house.
April : So, did I sleep with you?

Will : No.
April : Can I get you a drink? I just cracked open a fresh box of wine.
Will, surprised, follows her.
Will : This is a-a great place you have. Uh, looks like you're doing well for yourself.
April : I get about five or six appointments on a good day from my World Wide Web page, so I do okay for myself.
April, returning with two glasses of wine and a smile.
April : Why don't you have a seat, take off that jacket, and I'm gonna slip into something a little more comfortable.
Three people entered the house this moment.
Will : Mm! ...
Agente : So, this is a beautiful five-bedroom
The agent and the couple were surprised to find people in the house.
Agente : ....with wood-burning fireplace and.... You. This is the third time this week.
Will : Who are you?
Agente : I'm Sandra with Oakcrest Realty. And she is a squatter. This is a bank- owned property. The owners foreclosed six months ago.
April : Let me just get my vino, and I'll be out of your hair. Hold that.
Will : Okay.
April went away.
Will : (Smiling) .... Just... Nice place.
Moments later, Will and April out on the sidewalk. While that April is used again to drink.
Will : Can I ask you a question?
April : Yeah.
Will : What happened to you, April? In high school, you were really going places. You had a voice like a dream; everyone loved you.
April : Oh. Oh, I hitched my star to the wrong wagon. Me and my high school sweetheart Vinny were convinced we were going to be stars, so we dropped out of school and hitchhiked our way to the Broadway.
Will laughs.
April : Then we ended up in Cleveland slinging hash at Ralph's Bait Shop and Waffle House. Then Ralph had an affair with Vinny. I had a set of mixed-race twins. And those were the good times. .... (Chuckles)... (Sighs)...
Will : April... I think your struggle is really moving. And I want to help you get back on your feet. I happen to know that you're only three credits shy of your diploma. I can put you in my Spanish class. And... I know you're an amazing singer. I want you to be in the glee club. We'll get you sobered up... find you some underwear. It's not too late for you, April. What do you say?
April, happy, spills his drink.

April : Old, huh? You guys look like the world's worst Benetton ad.
Will : Mm. Mm....
Artie : (Raising hand) Mr Schuester, this seems like a terrible idea.
Will : April is a great singer. And she never graduated.
Mercedes : We appreciate what you're trying to do, but she's no Rachel.
April : Who's Rachel?
Tina : Sh....She's kind of our star.
April : Your star, eh? Well, where is she?

Will : Look, April, I've been, uh, talking to the glee kids, and, um, I think they're still not so sure about having you around. You draw a lot of attention to yourself. And they're embarrassed enough as it is. So do you think you could maybe take some time and try to win them over?
April smiling.

April : Yeah.
Kurt : Mm, smells like my Aunt Mildred.
April : Just drink it.

Kurt : Sweet. With a bit of an afterburny taste.

April pinching her cheeks.
Kurt : Really?

April : Oh, no, you got to be more natural.
Tina : I c...can't do this.
Mercedes : I don't understand why we're doing this in the first place.
April : Your lack of imagination astounds me. This is only the beginning. If you can master this, you can sneak anything out of a store between your knees.
April, mini-skirt, slips a cabbage between those thighs and walk.
April : Shoes, prom dresses. I once got a cake out of a kid's birthday party. With the candles still lit.

Rachel stops singing.
Rachel : I don't know what you want.
Sandy : Well, I know what I don't want. And it is all of this. When I gave you this part, I thought you could handle it, but clearly you can't. What this show needs is a star with a little bit more maturity.
Rachel : I know what you're trying to do. You're trying to get me to quit, so you can be the star. Well, it won't work. I'm not going anywhere.
Rachel goes to Sandy, stunned.
Sandy : .... I'll say.
SCENE 15 : Repetition Hall's - Finn, Rachel, April and Will
Finn and Rachel repeating the musical by Rachel.
Rachel : I'm sleeping with him.
Finn : So am I... (Surprised, he drops the text.) This play's weird.
Rachel : That's Mr. Ryerson's favorite line. You're a really good actor, Finn. Maybe you should consider joining the musical.
Finn : I'm pretty devoted to Glee. I don't think I could just walk away from it. I know how hard it was for you. But I could justify doing both if you came back. But we both know that's not gonna happen.
Finn approaching her.
Finn : ... Do you know what we should do?
Rachel : Elope?
Finn : What?
Rachel : Nothing.
Finn : We should go bowling. You're always so stressed out about the play. You just need to loosen up....(Trying his hand at her side at the piano.). I always go bowling whenever I'm worked up about a big game or something.
Rachel : Just us?
Finn : Yeah.
Rachel : Yeah, that....that....that would be great. I....I am really stressed out. But that's the price you pay for being a star.
Suddenly, April and Will enter.
April : Don't I know it.
Will : Hey,Rachel. April Rhodes, Rachel Berry. Hey, can you give us the room, Rachel? We need to teach April the cues for "Don't Stop Believing."
Finn : Wait, she's singing the female lead?
Rachel : Wait, she's in the glee club? She's... ancient.
April : Talent doesn't age, sweetheart.
Finn : That's Rachel's part, Mr Shue.
Will : Well, Rachel's not in the glee club anymore.
Rachel : Thanks, Finn.
Rachel went away.
Will : Rachel... We're all really excited to see the play. Make sure you save us a seat in the front row.
April moved while Rachel goes away, annoyed.
April : Me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Finn : You....you.....you....you....you...
Rachel looking through the glass unhappy.

lotus : has your muse ever felt as though they’ve been reborn ? have they ever desired the feeling of a fresh start , or a better understanding of themself and/or the world around them ? [for Tahno]
@xrevolucionario - pretty flowers for a pretty man
In a sense, no, but also yes - for his entire life.
Born too tall. Too pretty. Too stubborn. Too clear of an eye color. To defiant for the delicate business and fortune his family was trying to build under the Takamasa name. A spoiled only son who said every abrasive thought that came to mind, and slung out insults.
Tahno sees his life in stages ; the before and after. The wild and willing youth filled with his own wicked ways - winning tournaments without pay respect, or stringing along others around and then strangling them with their uncertainties with their sexualities. It was barely reading textbooks and getting barraged by zeros, but then acing the final exams. Then he broke from college a month before he was supposed to walk across the stage.
This was the before ; he never faced any consequences.
Maybe Tahno felt reborn after becoming a host - breaking away from parents and prospects of professional jobs.
Until he did, after college, and it came to him in the most horrible way. A stupid, selfish young man thinking that hosting in his home country would be a breeze. And it was for the first couple years, with pretty, sad girls emptying their wallets for a few more seconds of personal time, and filling his pockets until they were heavy. It was alcohol and sex and selling himself and happiness -
And in the highest moment, he fell hard. Hunted for his pretty looks and held hostage by gangs. Exploited and bartered and debts that burned away all the wealth he built.
He did seek a fresh start after being kicked out ( illegal gun sales slapped onto his name ) and becoming stuck in the States - slipped a rope around his neck but was found and cut down by Lin Beifong. It was from the shame of what happened to him, how he was tethered to his past by the tattoos that were tightly inked into his skin -
( how his home country wouldn't label him a victim because he was a man. )
Depending on the verse, he is in the stage of having a better understanding of himself - the States have always suited him better, even if he needed to brush up on his English again. Despite the irritated attitude he may display, Tahno feels less anxious in America. He will have his points of paranoia and painful memories, but Charlie Howard, Ming, and Shaozu help placate him.
