Seasons

The thing to keep in mind, is that humans aren't the only thing on Earth. If Xenos think that humans are odd, just wait until they come and visit. Especially if they come back.

*****

The first delegation came in June. The specific time of year wasn't planned or anything, it was just when things had been nailed down for the visit.

The Coalition had sent a few ambassadors down to Earth for goodwill. Earth was heavier than they were used to and on the larger size of planets they knew of that would support sapient life, and the positively gigantic moon orbiting Earth had caused more than a small amount of conversation, but the visit was otherwise uneventful.

Everyone was on their best behavior around the new visitors and the Sefigan's especially liked Earth's trees. Squat, branching, and thick, they were much more imposing than the tall, spindly things that the Sefigans called trees back on their homeworld. More than one of the small furry Sefigans were caught standing underneath the large oaks in front of the embassy, staring up in wonder.

After many meetings about relations, travel, visas and even tourism, the delegation said their goodbyes and left. All in all, it was a great visit.

Four months later, the delegation returned, this time with more people. Included were representatives from tourism boards as well as the heads of mining companies. It turned out that Earth had a lot more heavy metals than other planets with sapient life, so we had begun talks about exporting our bounty to the settled galaxy.

Captain Mary Markuss met the delegation at the airlock. Like last time, they would be taking a human built ship down to the surface. Most Coalition ships weren't designed to go atmospheric, and most human ships were. After the welcome and introductions were completed, she offered the head ambassadors the option to remain on the Command Deck and watch the landing. "It's quiet beautiful this time of year."

The ambassadors - two Sefigans and two Zz'tks - made polite noises, and sat on the seats prepared for them next to Captain Markuss's chair. She set the forward screens to show external views, so it was like they were looking out of large windows as they landed.

The Sefigans were nervous during the fall through the upper atmosphere, but had been coached ahead of time that this was normal and just how humans landed. It still felt to them like a slightly insane way to go down to your homeworld, but they remained silent.

As the ship burst from the clouds, they saw the trees.

The land was covered in the red, yellow, brown, and gold. It was breathtaking, especially if you weren't used to seeing it. Captain Markuss smiled to herself when she saw it. Autumn was her favorite season, and it was always nice to see, especially now that she wasn't planetside as much. It was slightly past peak color so there were many trees already denuded of leaves.

All four ambassadors gasped in surprise. One of the Sefigan ambassadors turned to Captain Markuss, "Captain! What's happened! Your trees are dying!"

One of the Zz'tk ambassadors clacked their wing covers together, a stress action. "Captain. If your planet is suffering from a major extinction event, you should have told the Colation. We have experts that we could deploy to assist."

Captain Markuss looked over at the ambassadors. They all looked worried. One of the Sefigans was furiously taking notes on their pad. She chuckled. "It's Autumn - one of our seasons. This is normal. The trees lose their green color and drop their leaves in preparation for going dormant during the winter."

The Sefigan taking notes stops with their paw above the tab and slowly looks up at Captain Markuss. "This-" they gesture at the screen "-is normal?"

The Captain nods. "Happens every year here. I grew up in this area. The sounds, the smells, the sights of fall are very nostalgic to me. It's my favorite season. I can't wait to show you some of our autumn traditions!"

They landed without any further conversation, but as they exited the ship, the two Sefigans walked over to the same oak they visited a few months ago and stared up. It was practically glowing it was so bright with orange and yellow leaves. The wind gusted, and the leaves rustled and a small drift of leaves blew around them as they stared. They turned to the Captain, who had walked up next to them. "And, this tree is... not ill?"

She smiled gently. "Not at all. This is a fine Oak. Come the spring, it will be green and lush again. Come, I believe you are able to consume Apples. I have a drink called cider, and there are some pastries called apple cider donuts that have been prepared. They're popular on Earth at this time of year, in places that have seasons like this."

Word Count: 3.5k Chapter Warnings: 18+ blog, language, mentions of alcohol, reader has a nickname (Blue) but no physical descriptors are used, un beta’d. Notes - Thanks, as always, for all your lovely comments and reblogs to this fic so far. It means the world to me.

Previous | Series List | Next

It feels like the case is falling apart. Jurado won’t testify without Christina and no one knows where she is at the moment. There are whispers rumbling and none of them are good.

Javi’s become accustomed to racing heartbeats, to surges of adrenaline as he tries to make sense of the cards in front of him. He can feel everyone’s eyes on him, the weight of expectation after he arrested Gilberto.

He needs something else, another option to bring this cartel down.

They go ahead with the plan arrest Miguel, to act decisively, to bring it down once and for all. Feistl has his informant, Natalia, and there’s a plan.

Javi and his team do everything right. They don’t say who the target is; they even bring the damn prosecutor with them to sign the warrant there and then to help keep this quiet, assure the mission’s integrity. They keep the target secret; they have the intelligence that he is in that house. Everything is prepared.

He follows the rules, follows the guidance and your careful considerations. In the moments before it starts, he is sure Blue would be pleased he stops Feistl barging in against the local laws. The prosecutor is reluctant to help but he finally signs the paperwork.

It’s a good plan. Until the local police turn up, until they point out the unblocked exit, until, until, until …

They still fail. They fuck up; they’re moments from getting Miguel and are told the raid isn’t legal, that it’s over.

Javi knows that Miguel was behind that wall, is probably laughing at them all right now, at their failed attempt, at their incompetence, at Javi’s mistakes.

He thinks back to that night, to the work and preparation that went into it. He felt like himself for a second; in a shirt and tac vest instead of a claustrophobic suit, being at the scene with the intelligence rather than reading it in a report.

Every minuscule step forward he makes is thwarted with gigantic stumbles backwards. Javi set this path in the motion the day he arrested Gilberto so he needs to see this through. He needs to make this work.

Javi neatens the tie around his neck and looks at you. You look serious; he’s watched you smooth out imaginary creases on your suit jacket at least twice in the last ten minutes.

“We’ve got this,” you say softly, looking at him and Feistl and then at the Ambassador approaching in the distance.

He knows you’re lying.

You take a long gulp of coffee and rest your head against the sofa. The past few weeks have been draining. You thought it was bad enough telling Javi everything that had happened in DC, but quickly after that work had escalated and when the arrest of Miguel failed and they threatened to pull everyone on the raid’s visas? You’ve been juggling a lot. The two of you have barely been able to talk about what you said on the plane weeks ago. You’re glad of that.

You don’t want to dwell on the past, you don’t want to go backwards. Somehow talking to Javi about DC changed something within you; it hurt at first. It bought up all your ghosts and agonies. Then it subsided though and in the wake of those memories, you felt different. It’s as though you have forged the broken pieces of yourself together with something stronger, something that makes you more resilient.

It doesn’t hurt so much to think about it now. It’s there; the dull ache that hasn’t subsided, but it’s different.

You were scared after you told Javi that things would change between the two of you; that Javi would think you weak, or even worse, he would change how he was around you. Things have been normal though, or as normal as they can be.

“Are you sure you can trust him?” you ask quietly, after considering what Javi has just told you he plans to do to get Christina back.

“No, but I - I don’t see another option right now. The cartel paid for Christina to be -” Javi breaks off and looks out of the glass windows of his office. “I need to go and get her.”

You don’t need Javi to elaborate on what he’s thinking. You don’t want to think about what Christina may be going through, how terrified she may be right now. It is so like Javi thought to decide he’ll be the one to get to her, to not delegate the role but to see it through.

“And then Jurado will talk, I’ll get the deal back, Javi. We can get him to translate the ledger you found?”

“That’s the plan, cariño. There are two people who can translate that ledger - him and the accountant and we only have Jurado right now.” Javi moves off the desk he was perched against.

You’ve noticed his habits over the many months you’ve worked together now; how he leans against furniture, how he prefers a shirt and jeans to suits, how he naturally wants to loosen the top buttons of any shirt he wears, to always show a tantalising amount of neck. He has freckles there; sometimes you’ve wanted to count them, to place a delicate kiss on each one.

You can’t though. There’s the case, there’s your history, there’s too much.

“So, you’re off into the jungle again?” you ask, a mischievous smirk on your face.

“I promise won’t wear my best shoes this time,” he says lightly, squeezing your arm briefly as you move to stand next to him.

“Well, that’s some progress I suppose.”

“I’m trying.”

“I know, I know you are. Look, Javi, we’ll get through this. You’ll get Christina and then we have the money, we have Jurado’s testimony. We’re getting there - you’re getting there.”

“Thanks, Blue.”

“Just be safe, Javi. I don’t like the sound of this guy.”

“Oh, sweetheart, you have no idea.” Javi pauses then adds, “I’ll be safe, don’t worry,” he says softly, his eyes meeting yours with an unspoken promise.

Things fall apart quickly and the confirmation from Salcedo there’s a link brings all the puzzle pieces together at last.

Javi watches your face carefully as he tells you everything he knows; that the leak may be in the government, that Jurado is dead, murdered in prison and that he was this close to arresting Miguel before he was stopped. He confesses that they seem to know all of his moves, that the stacks of cards he’s carefully constructed is being systematically destroyed and he’s not sure he can stop this.

He has a matter of hours to make this right and he can’t even get to Cali. He’s stuck here in Bogota and it’s not enough.

“Javi, they’ve asked for all my files too,” you say softly, “I - I don’t know how we can fix this one. I spent hours talking to the local office today and - I don’t think I can fix this.” You’re not looking at him and Javi wonders if you think he’s disappointed in you. He’s not, he can’t be anything more than amazed that you’ve fought with him as hard as you have, that you’re still here with him.

He looks at you, exhales the smoke from his cigarette and confesses the next part of his plan. “We’re going to arrest Miguel today.”

“What?”

”If I still have until the end of today, we can still get him before then. You and I both know that it won’t happen after today. So, it happens now, or it doesn’t happen at all.”

“Javi, I - okay. Okay. What do you need from me?”

“I’ve got a plan with Feistl and Van Ness. I’ve - I’ve spoken to General Serrano just now and it’s going ahead, we - we have a plan. We make him move, make him leave his safehouse or wherever he’s hiding and then we get him.”

You tilt your head as you take in the plan and then nod. “That sounds sensible. Right, you have a plan, you still have some time to do this but what’s wrong, Javi? I can see it all over your face.”

“I’m stuck here, Blue - I should be in Cali with my team but I’m not and -”

If anything goes wrong and he’s not there, if Javi’s the one who insisted on setting this in motion …

He swallows.

Christina’s right, he is a piece of shit. How can he tell you about what he’s done? He lied to Feistl and Van Ness, lied about Salcedo and getting him out just so he has the chance for them to arrest Miguel? He thinks of the numerous CIs he’s had over the years, the way he’s detested higher-ups for making calls just like this, the consequences of that which he’s seen.

If this goes wrong today, he’ll never wash the blood off his hands.

He can’t tell you any of this though.

Instead, he resigns himself to the fact that while Christina is right about him, if he can get Miguel, if he can expose this corruption, then maybe he won’t be so bad. Maybe he will bear some goodness at last and it will be worth it.

Javi feels your hand on his arm, a gentle squeeze. It reassures him, having you so near to him, the solid grounding presence of your hand on his shirt.

It’s nearly over, he tells himself, it’s almost over. They’ll arrest Miguel, they’ll get Salcedo and his family somewhere safe, it will all be worth it. It’s the right thing.

The DEA arrest Miguel, they safely put Salcedo and his family into a hotel. That’s when your work can start at last; the next step in acquiring justice. You

There’s no celebration in Javi’s office after Miguel’s arrest, no true sense of a win. There’s the slow, haunting realisation that the odds were always stacked around you, that the cartel had all the winning cards.

In the movies, justice moves quickly. The scene transitions seamlessly from the arrest to a courtroom to a jail cell as though it all happens immediately, within a week or two at the most. You never see the months of work in between that. Real life is so different to the screen. There’s a lot more paperwork to complete than for a start.

You spend so much of your time in these between scenes, slowly trying to find a way forward. The entire pursuit of justice is a painstaking wade though molasses, each step infinitely harder than the last.

One night, shortly after the arrest, you find Javi standing outside your apartment, tie loosened, eyes wild. You’re holding grocery bags in your arm, dressed in jeans and a t-shirt as opposed to your usual workwear.

“Tell me you didn’t know,” he says, “Please, please, cariño, tell me you didn’t know.”

You open your door, leaving it open for him to walk in as you place your grocery bags on the dining table. “What are you talking about, Javi?”

“I was just with the Ambassador.”

“Okay?”

“He played me a tape. Tell me you haven’t heard it.” You forget about unpacking your shopping, forget about which items need to go in the fridge. What tape? What is he saying?

You walk from the kitchen to the sofa.

“Heard what, Javi?” you ask in your best prosecutor voice.

“That they’re all in on it. That they donated to Samper’s campaign, that all of this, all of this means nothing right now, because they’re not going to stay in jail, are they, Blue?”

“Javi I-”

You sit down on the sofa and put your head in your hands.

“It makes sense,” you say after a moment. “Fuck!”

The system has been against you both from the start. You feel the bile rising in your stomach, the frustration at the futility of everything you have fought for.

“We never stood a chance, Blue.”

“We – Javi -” you falter, unsure of what you can even say.

If what Javi says is true, and of course it is, then everything you’ve done and everything you’ve been planning could be futile. You have so much work left to do in this case and it’s quickly apparent this isn’t going to be smooth. This work is just going to be pushing a boulder uphill, watching it fall and being grateful if it ends just up two inches above where you started. Your work hasn’t even started yet and already you feel like you’re walked into a losing case.

Javi’s face pierces through your reverie; a mix of desperation and despondence.

You know that feeling, you know it too well.

“What if we expose this too? What if I draft an indictment? Can you prove this?” you ask. There’s nothing to lose anymore; your career aspirations with the DOJ were killed back in Washington, this job isn’t for you. So, what do you even have to lose?

“I’d need the accountant.”

“Then get him, Javi. This isn’t over yet.”

Javier’s priority becomes getting Guillermo on side, ensuring there’s evidence to keep the godfathers in jail and achieve some form of justice still. You do whatever you can to help. In between this, you’re drafting and deleting and throwing wads of paper into the bin as you try and figure out how to write this indictment.

Justice isn’t so sweet, but it keeps moving. Arrests are made, deals agreed, the sticky wheels continue to turn.

In the aftermath of all of this, your life becomes flights and hotels and helping the US federal prosecutors state to state make their case and make sense of the evidence and testimonies.

You perfect packing at short notice, learn all of the frequent traveller tips that have evaded you before. After a couple of misadventures, you discover which airport food to definitely avoid, how to pack the least possible luggage so you only have to take a small case with you and don’t waste time at airport carousels after late night flights.

It may be punishment for realising you missed the courtroom - you wonder if this is some sort of divine intervention to show you a tour of as many federal courtrooms across the country as you can imagine.

The coffee is terrible in all of them.

Life slowly moves on.

And throughout it all, there’s Javi.

Right now, you’re in Javi’s office. It’s the first time in days you’ve been here and it feels a little strange. You only landed a few hours ago from your latest meeting and flight. Your clothes are crumpled and yet here he is, a cup of coffee waiting for you in his office as you trudge your way to him and update him on something he probably already knows about.

You’re both so far from Laredo now.

“So, I can tell you that the office in Delaware had the worst coffee by far,” you say lightly, taking the steaming cup with a smile.

“Oh yeah?”

“Uh huh, how’s the last couple of days been? I saw some of the news footage, I bet that got people talking. Didn’t you have a meeting with the Ambassador today?” Your boss is not so happy with the recent revelations from testimony and press interviews, but you’re not sure you want to tell Javi that. He’s doing the right thing, he’s trying to at least.

Javi’s expression worries you though; it’s the same he wore when he turned up at your apartment to discuss the Ambassador’s revelations.

“What’s wrong?” you ask as you watch him light a cigarette.

“They won’t go further with the indictment you wrote.”

“Oh.”

You sigh heavily and lean against his door. You’re not sure where to start with your response, that once you started drafting it, you knew it would never be filed - that they were never going to let you do anything with it, you knew that. It was just with every word you typed, you felt like you were exorcising some demons. You had to try, didn’t you?

“I’m sorry,” you say.

“’S not your fault.”

“I just - the Ambassador said I won, but I don’t feel like we did.”

“When you arrived, there was a deal on the table that would have delivered the accountabilities, the revelations that have come out because of your work, because of your team. Javi, it might be exactly what we want but - we achieved something, right?”

“I don’t feel like we won. Do you feel like we won, Blue?”

You don’t answer him. You don’t need to.

For a moment you’re not in Bogotá, you’re in a stuffy office in DC listening to a characterisation of yourself you do not recognise, drowning in a betrayal you never expected.

Javi was right all that time ago; you never stood a chance.

Do you feel like we won, Blue?

Javi’s words haunt you throughout your day. You ruminate on them incessantly, conducting a full court trial in your mind of the last of year of your life.

To an extent, Javi’s right. There’s a gnawing in your gut that you’ve failed, that this has just been a waste of a year. This isn’t a win, it’s not the result you fought for or have endured numerous flights and forced niceties for.

Is it truly a loss though?

Would you have ever connected with Javi beyond forced niceties in your fleeting visits to Laredo if it wasn’t for this year? You’ve learned a lot, you know more about the type of lawyer, type of person, you want to be.

It’s not a waste. It’s not the victory you hoped for, but it’s not a waste. It can’t be when it bought you Javi.

For months, you have ignored your feelings for Javi because of a fear of the past, because of your concerns of propriety, of protecting the case that meant so much to the two of you. Only, the whole case was compromised from the start. The moment hits you like icy water.

You’re here.

You’re at Javi’s door and before you can change your mind, you knock the front door of his apartment.

“What are you doing here?” he asks gruffly, opening the door ajar. You notice that he’s taken off his suit jacket and tie, the top two buttons of his shirt are unbuttoned and his hair is more dishevelled.

“Commiserations, I guess,” you say lightly, as he opens the door to allow you entry to his apartment. “I don’t think I told you this before, but you definitely got an upgrade on the apartment front when you got the attaché role- you can virtually see the whole city from here, Javi.”

“Why are you here, Blue?”

“Like I said … commiserations.” You close the door behind you and cautiously drop your handbag on his sofa. “I was thinking about what you said earlier, about did I feel like we won? All I can say is that people know more than they did, questions are being asked, the godfathers will stay in jail. We got … we got something. it might not be enough, or everything we wanted and hoped for, but it’s something.”

”Well, as long as we’ve not wasted an entire year of our lives,” Javi says dryly, walking to his living room window.

“I wouldn’t say that.”

“You wouldn’t?”

You look at the man standing next to you and shake your head as you think about the reason you’re here, that you’ve driven to his apartment block. “No, it’s definitely not an entire waste.”

Over the past year you’ve gone from being completely confused by Javi, by the man he became from the boy you once knew, to becoming friends - real genuine friends.

You’ve had moments where you’ve infuriated each other; where you thought you’d burn every single bridge you built with him out of sheer, incandescent rage and frustration. You’ve spurned his kiss and simultaneously lived for each brushed elbow, each tentative glance. You’ve sympathised with him, got to know the real him, you’ve broken bread together. He’s become more than a colleague, more than your brother’s best friend.

He’s Javi.

It’s Javi.

You’ve fallen for him.

And there’s no reason to deny that anymore, it’s futile to even try.

Besides, there’s no case, no reason to have to ignore it anymore. The case never stood a chance, neither of your efforts really did. You both tried anyway though.

That’s the point.

This year has shown you that you’re stronger, more resilient, and more determined than you ever realised. You will be damned before you let the past dictate your future. You will not let anxieties about people who don’t care about in another state, another country, haunt you for the rest of your life.

You think back to that night at your apartment with Javi months ago. You wondered if it was fate, the two of you being here together and perhaps, back them you were still finding your way back to yourself from DC, but here you are.

So, you stand a little closer to him, so close your hands are brushing. You can smell his cologne, the faint smell of cigarette smoke and when you look over at him, you’re struck by how deep brown his eyes are and how, beyond his frustration at this job he can’t fix, there’s such clear kindness in them. He looks over at you with a slightly puzzled expression on his face before he mirrors your own small smile.

This time, you kiss him.

Asking for help for a homeless mother and her 9 year old daughter (also, f*ck immigration!!!!!!!!!)

(Okay, first off, this is going to be long. If you want the short version, read the about section found on our PayPal Pool. Secondly, I don't claim to be an expert in immigration, a lawyer, or anything remotely capable/smart like that, I'm just doing my best. My apologies in advance if I'm using the wrong terms, language, etc.)

PayPal Pool: https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/8LcPjeD9XN. Cashapp/Venmo: $parksnnwrecked

Pictured above is my 48 year old mother in law standing with my sister in law. I'm protecting their names and censoring any potential identifying features at this time due to the nature of the situation, plus, protecting kids identities.

My mother in law became a US citizen in January 2012. She immigrated the US from Venezuela in 1995 after she met her first husband, and had my husband and his siblings. She then divorced their father in 2011, and met her current husband. They got married in 2013 and welcomed a daughter that same year. In early 2014, they started applying for him to be in the US legally (started in early 2014, had to hire legal representation in 2017 and have been working with them since).

On May 27, 2022, my mother in law traveled to Mexico along with her husband and daughter. They went as the next step to establishing legal residency for her husband. He received a pardon in 2016 (why they hired a lawyer) and have been cooperating with immigration since. Their next step was to travel to Mexico to interview with the embassy, and then re-enter the US legally. After a 45 minute meeting, his visa was refused, and he is now not allowed to return to the US until new paperwork is filed. We've been told this process could take 6 months, it could take years.

He was employed as a manual laborer on a farm. He worked in exchange for a weekly stipend, and a 3 bedroom house (rent/utility free) for the three of them. My mother and law and sister in law flew back to Maryland on June 13th, my husband and I picked them up, and they arrived back at their home. Once he informed his boss of what was happening, they were told that if he wasn't there to work, they would have 3 days from their flight back to Maryland to pack up their whole house and leave. From Tuesday through Thursday, they packed up the house, and started staying with a friend. Currently they have housing secured through Thursday, June 28th. After that, their only options are homeless shelters, since they have no other friends/family. My husband's siblings both live out of state (one in CA and one who doesn't really have much contact but lives in WV).

She has 4 job interviews this upcoming week. She has about $350 in cash, but we all know how far that will go when it comes to a) a 9 year old's appetite and b) $350 isn't SHIT these days. We are trying to fundraise enough to cover all move in costs (first months rent $950, security deposit $950, pet fee for a cat $200), plus basic furniture (a bed/mattress for them to share ~$150, kitchen items $50, the dollar tree is BOMB yall, personal hygiene items ~$50, and some additional grocery/gas money ~$300 and a little extra for any fees) for them so that they can avoid this while still working with immigration, lawyers, etc. so that he can return.

My sister in law is so resilient for a 9 year old, and we currently are doing our best to protect her from everything going on. My husband and I have volunteered to help with watching her as much as we can once she has a job, so we're not looking for assistance with any childcare costs, just getting them into an apartment about 15 minutes from us so that we can support them as much as possible.

We have contacts in to a few resources that advertise that they will help with move in fees, but we're unsure how long that will take. If you're in the DMV area and know of any resources/assistance, we'll gladly take it. If you have any questions, please reach out.

I know that it's so hard out here for everyone, everything has doubled in price it seems, and we're all struggling. My sister in law is the best kid I've met, and she deserves to have her family intact and a safe place to live. If you can reblog this, share the link, retweet the tweet that brought you here.. It may reach someone who is able to help get them stable. Thank you for reading this.

Navigating Panama Visa Requirements for Indian Citizens: A Comprehensive Guide

Dreaming of exploring the stunning landscapes and vibrant culture of Panama? If you're an Indian citizen, understanding the intricacies of obtaining a visa is crucial for a smooth and hassle-free journey. Panama, with its rich biodiversity, bustling cities, and thriving economy, is an enticing destination for travelers worldwide. However, before you embark on your adventure, it's essential to familiarize yourself with Panama visa requirements, especially tailored for Indian passport holders.

Understanding Panama Visa Options for Indian Citizens

Tourist Visa:

For Indian citizens planning a leisure trip to Panama, obtaining a tourist visa is typically the first step. The process involves submitting necessary documents, including a valid passport, proof of accommodation, return flight tickets, and financial statements demonstrating sufficient funds to cover your stay. The tourist visa allows for a specified duration of stay, usually up to 90 days, within a six-month period.

Business Visa:

If your visit to Panama is for business purposes, such as attending meetings, conferences, or exploring investment opportunities, you'll need to apply for a business visa. Along with standard visa application requirements, you may be asked to provide additional documents, such as an invitation letter from your Panamanian business counterpart or conference organizers.

Student Visa:

Indian students aspiring to pursue higher education in Panama must secure a student visa.

Tuesday, a crisis of citizenship. The most first world of first world problems arises in the morning when the investment bank I’m supposed to meet with tomorrow tells me that they googled my name and, because of heavy US regulation, cannot work with dual citizens. I knew America had the reverse-Midas touch when it comes to all things tax. They keep an eye on and take money from their citizens no matter where those citizens live, and the only other country that does this is Eritrea. ERITREA. My being born by accident in North Carolina to English parents and being raised in the UK doesn’t matter either. I file my little cuck returns every year, and I can almost convince myself that it’s worth it just to make border control 60 minutes quicker after a transatlantic flight and vote for corrupt politicians. But now the US are coming for my still-hypothetical investment portfolio, all because I slid out of my mother’s British birth canal in 1993 on American soil. And I didn’t even slide out, she had to have an episiotomy because of an impatient doctor, and it ruined her genitals

I blame my father, and the medical residency he took at Duke university hospital at the worst moment. I would send my IRS bills to his house if I knew his address. I spend the afternoon reading up on PFICs, collective funds, government bonds, embassy fees. It costs thousands to stop being American, and I learn that sometimes the government punishes you by taking away your right to an ESTA (visa waiver) for tourist visits. They treat you the same way V is treated after she was arrested in the UK for carrying mace and now has to apply for some kind of criminal-grade visa for Miami Basel. And truthfully I fear the wrath of the US more than any other governing body, it’s like dealing with a child hyped up on sugar: demanding and illogical. So I regroup, and call my new dad, my concert pianist next door neighbour D. His situation is similar to mine, only he’s lived a dual citizen life 30 years longer, and is kind enough to pass down some of his hard-earned wisdom. It’s what parents should do, and sometimes your parent is a gay man with high functioning autism. Within 30 minutes he has laid my options out to me, and linked me with an American wealth manager who specialises in “accidental Americans”. D says there will be people fighting over managing my money someday soon, and that it’ll be good for me to say I’m spoken for. He says invest in Pepsi, and I say I’m a Coca Cola girl. We hang up, and I suddenly don’t feel even close to rich enough to be exploring any of this. YouTube keeps telling me my best investing days are behind me, that I should’ve been putting £200 away from age 20. I wasn’t even putting 200 CALORIES away at 20, but the YouTubers don’t know that. They just call compound interest “the eighth wonder of the world” over and over again

By late afternoon it is raining cats and dogs, and my studio roof is leaking a steady drip into a giant plant pot I place underneath it. DHL tells me A will soon have his gift, and I place my hands together in prayer. I have of course already wrecked the gift spiritually by worrying aloud to A about its whereabouts. I make a cathartic call to the gallery that sold me the Disney artwork and yell at the woman who handled the sale and disastrous shipping. Her friendly customer-service style of gaslighting is no match for my wrath. “We are NOT friends, Laura”, I tell her when she says she was “so moved” by the backstory she teased out of me when I placed my order. She says she will look into some form of compensation, but at the time of writing I haven’t heard back. N sends me photos of Michael Jackson’s bedroom, where he died in 2009. We speculate briefly on whether the tall skinny tanks of gas surrounding his bed were for the chamber he reportedly liked to be placed in or for cluster headaches. I thought the latter because of how many meds Jackson was on, and how many meds my schizophrenic uncle is on, and he got cluster headaches, the only cure for which is huffing oxygen from a tank

But that’s neither here nor there. I feel fatigued for no reason, perhaps just the finance of it all, the natural exhaustion that occurs when one is doing grown up things without being a grown up. The Instagram account Depths Of Wikipedia posts a selection of “terms referring to an average person” in different countries ie. America’s “Joe Schmoe / Average Joe” or England’s “Joe Bloggs”. Continental Europe has enjoyable ones: John With The Cap (Dutch) or Joe Little Carrot (Slovakian) or Ottokar Waseverywhere / Jane Welltravelled (Czech Republic). A FaceTimes me while I read these, and both his dog (freshly walked by her dogwalker) and his gift arrive to his house at the same time, right before he leaves to shoot a Vampire Weekend video. It is a relief
