Off the Deep End | Part 4

Genre: fluff; smut; angst

Rating: 18+

Pairing: Bang Chan x fem reader

Word count: 1.7k

Warnings: mentions of past trauma, drowning, and adult language (warnings will be added to each chapter)

A/N: for some reason, the desktop website is extremely laggy and I can't do anything with it, so this was posted on mobile, hence the weird formatting. I'm doing my best. I've managed to fix it!

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | to be continued

Masterlit | Network

This time, I do decide to get inside the pool at my sister's house, much to her husband's content. He seems as excited as a proud dad whose little kid finally does something he's been praying to see for years.

"Oh my, look at that!"

It feels a little awkward to have this grown man cheer me on like I'm a 7 year old with a baking soda volcano at the science fair, but I appreciate the enthusiasm, I guess.

"That hunk really is doing a number on ya," his tone is a bit odd, and it feels like the weird word choice was deliberate on his part. I've felt conflicted about him ever since him and Jaime started dating, it's like he's pretty nice but also a bit of a snake. I still don't trust him if we're being honest, but being cordial is unfortunately a required skill for an adult.

"I guess it's his job to teach me how to swim, isn't it?" My response is dry and I think he caught up to the snark, because he drops the subject and simply continues to swim around. This pool doesn't really have a deep end, the deepest part is about 160 cm deep, which is slightly less than my height.

"Grab a pool noodle and practice a bit, Jess," he suggest and I shrug, feeling a little pressured but I don't think my brother-in-law would let me drown so I kind of just awkwardly strut to grab the pool noodle and use it as a kickboard while I kick my feet.

"You're kind of swimming," he announces excitedly. Oh shit, I am! Kind of... "Jamie! Your sister's kinda swimming!"

"In no time, you'll be as good as Brenda's daughter!"

I can't tell if the comment is meant to be a nice compliment or just pure sarcasm, it's hard to tell with my sister's husband. "She just made the team, did you hear?"

"Good for her." It's hard not to sound bitter, even though I shouldn't. She's just a kid. A rich kid being raised to occupy her place in the elite, probably become an insufferable cunt just like her mother and her rich friends, make a lot of money and then marry another insufferable cunt, have kids of her own and develop a day-drinking problem. Why am I judging a little girl? Have I become as bitter as Jamie? Ugh... Speaking of bitter, my sister interrupts my shitty thoughts, which have managed to take over my small victory celebration.

I get tired of looking like an idiot in the water so I climb the stairs, my legs heavy and tired, and I sit on one of the loungers and grab the bottle of beer I opened earlier that still has some booze left.

"Have you been to see Mum lately?"

Her question catches me off guard. No, I haven't, and she knows this, and I'm sure the next thing that will come out of her mouth is going to be her bragging about how she goes there often. She doesn't have a job, she has a maid to keep her massive house clean, she has an au-pair to look after her children. All she does is lounge by the pool, day drink and have affairs with handsome men when her husband is away, so no wonder she has the time and mental energy to go see Mum at the hospice and crown herself daughter of the year.

"No," I dryly reply, taking a sip of my beer. "Have you?"

I know she's going to say yes, I just know it.

"Of course," she simply replies, giving me that look that screams I'm better than you. "She asked for you, you know?"

"She doesn't even remember she has kids, Jamie."

"She did for a moment," Jamie scoffs, I know she's trying to get a rise out of me. "She asked where's Jessica? She never comes to see me, I'm gonna die all alone in this bed without seeing my eldest daughter. And then she fell asleep."

"Well, I'm sure she only remembered of my existence and not the reasons why I'd rather forget hers," is all I say before finishing my beer, setting down the empty bottle loudly on her expensive coffee table. "Anyway, I have to go."

I hear her husband mutter as I walk towards the front door, "do you have to be that crass?" but I don't bother looking back. Why do I still come here, is what I'd like to know. She's my sister and we're bonded by the trauma our mother gave us growing up, but I guess she copes by acting like her life is a perfect fairytale and I'm the failure stuck on a low-wage job, who never learned how to swim and is single and childless at 36, living in a studio flat, while she owns a massive house with a pool and a husband who lets her go off and fuck other men. He probably does it too. I'm not convinced by the picturesque Sims 4 life.

The choice of 90's and 00's pop music is certainly something, but the only thing I currently care about is the fairy bread on the table next to a multitude of other unhealthy snacks, which will certainly spark joy. Little Jessica is being hounded by people, some of which I recognise and some I don't.

"You must be so proud," says an overly excited female voice. "Congratulations," exclaims another. The girl looks like she's been preparing for this her whole life: she stays poised, back straight and chin up, smiling whenever a camera or phone is pointed in her direction. Being groomed for success from childhood seems like a double-eged sword. On the one hand, your future is guaranteed. On the other, well, your future is guaranteed. I can't help but wonder what would have happened if my mother had so carefully planned every aspect of my upbringing. Surely my sister turned out perfect, but what of me? Thirty-six years old, unmarried, childless, without a proper career and just now learning how to swim. This little girl is winning actual medals and being adored by the entire community and all I'm doing is taking pictures for a small magazine nobody reads and serving coffee.

"Hey Jessica." I recognise the voice immediately and my innards scream for a second, but I keep my composure, slowly turning around so my gaze can meet the man who's just greeted me.

"Hi Chris, you must be so proud of your pupil!"

"Absolutely," he smiles, "but all I did was help her unlock her potential."

"Take some credit," I playfully declare, my palm gently slapping his arm sort of against my best judgement. Play it cool, you idiot. "I'm sure not all swim coaches can brag about one of their kids making Nationals, right?"

"I guess..." He finally takes the compliment, his ears growing red and his dimples making an appearance once again.

"I'm obligated to take your picture now," I chuckle, doing my best to mask my own embarrassment. I'm sure my cheeks are as red as his ears but I make the executive decision to ignore it. "Big smile?"

"Oh no, not the yearbook picture," he laughs as I take the opportunity to click away, capturing him right as he flashes those adorable simples, his eyes turning into half moons in his rosey face. Admitedly, I'm doing too much. But it's for the magazine, right? Definitely not for me to look at alone in my tiny studio flat as the Cole's value pizza warms up in the oven...

"You look great," I declare, and this time I'm one hundred percent sure I'm blushing hard, but so is he, so at least I'm not alone. "All the wine mums are gonna go mad over this photo-" That was a low blow, I admit. But he laughs, a genuine laugh like he truly thinks I'm hilarious.

"Yeah, I'm afraid I've become popular among the bored housewife crowd."

So he knows. He knows he's hot. Yet he doesn't act like it. Truly the most dangerous type of man. And exactly my type.

"I'm sure they lie awake in bed at night thinking about-" I stop myself from completing the sentence, knowing damn well it's about to get a little too raunchy and we're surrounded by people, the very wine mums we're making fun of, not to mention it is potentially mildly inappropriate to make such comments about a man who is effectively my teacher. But then again, it's highly inappropriate that I lust for my younger swimming coach-

I glance at his face, looking for signs of distress on his part, like he's offended I would even suggest such barbarity, but he seems amused, smirking slightly.

"Thinking about what?"

His eyes are on mine. He's not much taller than me but, right then and there, it feels like he's six foot five and I'm but a little mouse. His usually gentle warm eyes have a hint of darkness behind them this time, a naughty glimmer I'd say.

"I'm not sure I'm allowed to say it out loud." I'm trying so hard to keep my cool even though my stutter and inability to look into his eyes betray me. It's hard to look at him at all but I see him grinning from the corner of my eye. The fucker is enjoying this. So he's a player...

"You're right, there's too many people around," he chuckles. "You wouldn't want your sister to know we're flirting."

"Very funny, Christopher." My nervous laugh doesn't even begin to sound natural or cute and it seems like he's taking a lot of pleasure out of teasing me. I've never wanted to slap the smirk out of someone's face this bad. Any evidence of my usual snarky self has evaporated and my legs shake when I realise how close he is. "That's exactly what we're doing, hmm hmm."

Much to my dismay, I hear someone approach, an irritating voice cutting through the tension that has built up in that little corner between Chris and I.

"Oh Christopher, you're a star!"

He glances at me and I take the queue to leave and go wander around with my camera in hand, shooting everything and everyone in sight, looking over my shoulder at Chris and Brenda getting a bit too close for comfort.

Rouge & Ruby: Prologue

Writer: Umeda Chitose

Season: Winter

Characters: Jun, Ibara

Proofreading: royalquintet (JP) & Skyress (ENG)

Translation: Mirei (Adam) & hyenahunt (Eve)

Jun: Hey, it's thanks to me doing said running that I got to catch a certain someone flouting the law just to work his ass off, though?

[Read on my blog for the best viewing experience with Oi~ssu ♪]

Time: New Year's Day, after the end of SS

Location: Outside ES

Jun: Pant, pant...

(I thought I could at least take a break for New Year's... but in the end I really just can't skip my daily training~ )

(That said, I'm still kinda worn out from SS, so I guess I'll keep it light.)

(I'll go one more loop around ES before heading back to Starmony Dorm and... hm?)

Jun: Why are there lights on in the ES building on New Year's break? And on top of that, the lights seem to be coming from —

The 18th floor? Isn't that CosPro's floor?

Hmm…

Now that I've seen it, I can't just ignore it, huh. I'll check out just why they're still on at this time~

Location: Cosmic Production Office

Ibara: …

Jun: Oh, so it's just you, Ibara.

Ibara: ? That voice… is that you, Jun?

Why are you here this late? If anything, I'm sure you don't have anything to do in the agency on a day like this. Then why did you come here?

Jun: That's what I should be asking you. From the looks of it, you seem to be busy working as usual, but...

Isn't there a labour law about how no one's allowed to work over New Year's break or something?

Ibara: Ahahaha! You would think, wouldn't you? Such laws do not apply to one in my position..

Jun: That's kinda not something to brag about... Besides, you know we only just finished up with SS, right?

It's the start of the new year — most folks usually take this time to rest up.

Ibara: I’d rather not hear a sermon about resting my body from a certain someone who’s already out to do his running routine so early in this new year, though.

Jun: Hey, it's thanks to me doing said running that I got to catch a certain someone flouting the law just to work his ass off, though?

Ibara & Jun: …

Ibara: … [sigh] You see, it’s exactly because SS is over that I’m focusing on work now. So would you kindly leave me alone?

Jun: Exactly because of that, you say... The concept of the first and last work days of the year doesn't exist to you, huh?

You were going ham on that keyboard, too. Is there really that much work to do this early in the year?

Ibara: If you're looking forward, the "work to do" is, in fact, limitless. Besides —

You heard what I said back then, did you not? I wanted a fair, head-on competition in SS.

If I let myself drown in the aftermath of it, the feeling of regret will take me over. I would even think like: Argh, I could even have an outburst in frustration.

But you see, if I focus on my work, I won't have to waste my time drowning in such sentiment. If anything, I can even turn that into my motivation.

Jun: Sounds more to me like you're taking out your frustrations on your work but … well, fair enough.

I mean, I'm all too aware that you're a workaholic, Ibara. You're the only one who understands the frustrations you're dealing with, so I'll leave you to it.

Ibara: … You said you’d leave me alone, but I see you've planted yourself firmly on a chair…

Jun: Haha. Well, I didn't say I'll go home, did I~?

I'm curious 'bout what you're working on, anyway. I bet it's got something to do with us, right?

Ibara: You're right. There are things we need to prepare for going forward. But there are also things that require urgent attention…

This year too, Eden members will make the best use of their abilities as idols at work.

Jun: Ooh… The more you say, the more curious I get. So, when you say "going forward", you mean…

Ibara: When it comes to the large-scale events that involve the whole ES, next month's Valentine's event — Chocolat Fes — is one that can't be missed.

Jun: Chocolat Fes, huh… Um, lessee... Is it that one event usually held simultaneously in idol schools all over the country?

Ibara: Yes. It's an event that has been held simultaneously nationwide in idol schools, and from this year onwards, it has been decided that ES will also take part in it.

Jun: It's supposed to be nationwide, but we don't have it in Reimei or even Shuuetsu, so I don't really know much 'bout it~...

On that note, why aren't the idol schools affiliated with CosPro taking part in it?

Ibara: To be frank, it was simply not much of a big deal.

Despite that, it's not like we didn't participate at all. There was indeed a time where I made a very small number of Special students do a similar event.

Jun: Huh, first I've heard about that…. So you oversee stuff to that extent, Ibara?

Ibara: Well, I'm on the management team for CosPro affiliated schools after all.

Jun: Rather than just being management, it's more like you're calling all the shots…

But anyway, ES's participation in it means that we'll also be taking part in it as Eden from this year onwards, right?

Ibara: Of course. Since it’ll be the first time that ES participates, it will be an event that attracts a great deal of interest and attention from the public eye.

Moreover, most units belonging to ES will likely join the event. There is no reason that we, Eden, should not also make our presence known.

Carefully, and meticulously, I’m formulating a plan of attack.

I'll share the detailed plan later. So please patiently wait for now.

Jun: Alrighty. Beats me what you might have in mind, but I'm looking forward to hearing all about it ~♪

… So anyway, when are you going home?

Ibara: Pardon?

Jun: Just look at the clock, dude.

I get that you're all fired up, but on top of working all through New Year's break, you should at least hold off from doing overtime, alright~?

Ibara: … I’ll leave in a reasonable amount of time, so there is no need for concern.

Jun: I said that 'cause I'm pretty sure you didn't have any plan of doing that in the slightest. Well then, how 'bout we run back together?

Ibara: There’s no way we can do that. You are ready with an outfit suitable for exercise, but I'm only in plain clothes

Jun: Ahaha. Well, you're right about that.

Either way, just wrap it up somewhere so you can head back soon, okay~? If you're late, I'll come all the way back to check on you, got it?

Ibara: Why are you mothering me? I'll leave once I'm at a good stopping point. So please, don't worry.

Jun: Alright, alright… Just make sure to actually do that, 'kay?

In that video you shared there is a commenter who keeps arguing saying they are not a Taylor defender yet keep repeating the Travis is better than Joe spiel. And they say that Joe could be a narc for all we know. Literally ignoring everything the video is saying to come to their own conclusions while still trying to make themselves sound reasonable. Joe is an actor. An inherently public career. One of the biggest signs of a narcissist is that they are unable to stay out of the spotlight. Joe is literally the opposite of that. Even in Taylor's doc, he is in one little scene where he meets her after a concert and even then you can't even see his full face. If I hadn't looked him up, I probably wouldn't even know what he actually looked like based on the documentary alone. Joe is also not the one with the track record of short-lived relationships that end badly. He's not the one openly bragging about cheating on partners. The person kept defending Travis and said stuff like it's possible Joe was a bad guy because Jack Anatoff didn't like him and Shawn Mendes said that he had a weird feeling about Joe. And they bring up that Travis has friends that he's known since he was a kid. Like Joe doesn't? This is a man who is still apparently on good terms with his exes. Not to mention Joe isn't the one with a history of aggressive behavior towards coaches and teammates. It's the most idiotic thing where people like that will say they're not defending Taylor, that Taylor is at fault but will still say they can't stand the thought of Joe being thought of as a good person while Travis is being criticized. I just want to reach out to the screen and bitch slap these people back to reality

One of the biggest signs of a narcissist is that they are unable to stay out of the spotlight. Joe is literally the opposite of that.

This! If anything, the fact that he stayed so long with her makes me think he might be a super empath.

Jack Antonoff? lol Yeah, Jack Antonoff is super reliable.

Also, Shawn Mendes admits in that same video that he never even met Joe, so he is judging Joe based on a photo. Again, super reliable. Also, the whole not trusting Joe, because he has blue eyes? Yeah, judging a man over a physical attribute he has no control over... says more about Shawn Mendes than it does about Joe..

"will still say they can't stand the thought of Joe being thought of as a good person while Travis is being criticized."

And there we have it! This is the problem. They know they can't elevate TK or TS so their only option is to drag Joe through mud. If they can make Joe look bad, than TS and TK will look better, by comparison.

Guess they never hear the saying : Dimming someone else's light won't make yours shine any brighter.

thanks to some twt jancies i've recently discovered something else in favour for stancy.

so they brag about jonathan and nancy having similar/matching career goals and use it as endgame proof for their ship.

truth is, we've already seen them work together as journalists/photo journalist in season three. and that didn't end really well for them. let's dig this subject. nancy and jonathan both start working for the post office, one of the first things we see is how nancy's the lunch lady for the bosses (she prepares coffee, gives them food, etc.) and jonathan works his photography in a dark room. from the beginning it's shown to the audience nancy isn't happy working for those people, this doesn't have to do with jonathan yet except he could've said something against the sexist comments. she felt like not being good enough to be a reporter until she found out a new case (the old lady one with the rats).

nancy wants to investigate the case to demonstrate she's worthy of working there as a journalist, not to be preparing sandwiches or coffee for those men. jonathan's on board at first - that's until the men make fun of nancy for trying to investigate the story and tell her to drop it because they didn't believe her - and guess who else didn't really believe in nancy's story? correct! jonathan. he also told her to drop the story, to just do what the misogynistic men told her to do. what the hell? shouldn't you support your partner? being afraid of getting fired is not a good excuse. it was only a summer job, there were more future opportunities. he decided to go with her because he felt pressured to do so. he never believed in her story.

then (if i remember correctly) the police finds them at discroll's house and they separate paths. nancy goes to the hospital to visit the lady while jonathan goes home. he doesn't care. not until nancy calls him and asks to talk with his brother, will. his interest suddenly grows when will's name is mentioned. then they reunite with will, mike, etc., and will asks jonathan "you weren't there?" to which he responds with "well i'm here now, aren't i?" and nancy adds: hallelujah.

notice how this implies jonathan wasn't really there until will was involved in the story. we know jonathan is a family guy who cares about joyce and will the most. the writers spell it out for us in every season. nancy didn't feel the support she needed from his boyfriend.

they both get fired. jonathan blames nancy for getting him involved in the story. they fight and nancy says the famous line "we just don't understand each other anymore". that's how their working as journalists together ends.

does this sound like a perfect future for either of them? would nancy want a partner in the future who doesn't support the stories she believes in and investigates? nancy deserves a partner who trusts her, one who believes in the stories she investigates and doesn't hesitate to defend her if she's getting sexist comments or any other kind of bad comments.

jonathan can't do that. we've seen it on screen. them working together don't function correctly. jonathan didn't care about the misogynistic comments, nor nancy's story. never. he even told her to deal with it. he didn't help her until he discovered will could be in danger.

THEN, in season four we see jonathan acknowledging his future with nancy would be full of resentment and they would end up in a loveless marriage, their kids would even hate him.

what else do you need to understand jonathan is not endgame material for nancy. she doesn't need to go through all of that again.

Hii!

So I've recently followed you both here and on Wattpad... And I was having some questions. You don't have to answer them! I'm just curious? I guess.

Question 1. So what do you think of Fgod Error? Also, known as Forced god of destruction Error? Or do you like canon Error more?

Question 2. Bad Sans Poly! Yes! But what about yandere Bad Sans Poly? Not that I support yandere in real life! But I do like to write about it.

Question 3. That isn't really a question just an idea... Okay so yandere Bad Sans Poly, without Error at first. But then they become yandere for Error slowly over time! And if I want to make it even more angsty, throw Fgod Error in there too!

And now I want to make this...

Anyway, I hope you have a good day/night! Take care of yourself! Stay hydrated and eat enough!

Hello! No worries, I loove answering questions :> If you ever have any more feel free to send them, I'll be delighted, however absolutely no pressure. And thanks for following me, I hope you like your stay.

So I actually made a post talking about this very topic, it's here if you want a longer answer:

But in short, or if you just don't feel like reading this one, I'm not a big fan of Fgod. Like, the concept is good, is has a belivable motive and story and all that, but it's just not something for me. However, if it just existed I wouldn't complain, it would be just another iteration of Error and I don't mind those. But it's everywhere and I hate it. It's always the same story, it's boring, plus there must be some people who believe it's the true canon Error due to how popular it is and I don't like it. Oh, and also I hate seeing Error as a god which this Au of course presents him as. He's not a god, he's literally just a dude who can die like any other and is not immortal in canon. However, I admit, it's a useful concept and I use it sometimes when I don't feel like making Error more complex. I just slap a "he destroys because he must" label and call it a day. So in short: the concept is good although not something for me, and I dislike that it's so overused. If you like Fgod Error good for you people, really! But I can't say that I like it. Out of the two I definitely like canon Error more.

2. Ahh Bad Sans Poly is always good, isn't it? And a yandere one you say? Hmmm, I can get behind this concept, though I need to be in a specific kind of mood to apprecaite it fully, believe me, I went through this before and I did write at least one yandere story (this was for Insomnia though). Though how would it look like with a poly? Everyone is yandere for everyone? Anyway, I do like it :].

3. !!! Listen, lIstEn, I once saw this drawing of exactly that. Bad Sans Poly and they are yandere for Error and IIIII loved it (I'll try to find the artist later and see if I can repost it here). It might be unexpected, but I usually actually like Error being the yandere one in the ship, or just the one being obsessed with the other person minus the controlling behaviour or just lessened. I don't know why, but yandere Error?? Sing me the f up. Anyway, of course it's up to you but this sounds like a lovely fanfic idea, not to mention that it's Bad Sans Poly bby! My truest OTP. I don't want to brag, but I feel like I made this poly a bit more popular with my writing and I couldn't be happier, beacuse more people need to appreciate it WITH ERROR IN IT.

Aaaand that's it, I hope one way or another you enjoyed this interaction, have a good one too.

Kevin Kelley

I've read the tweets that reportedly got Kevin Kelley fired from AEW, and while I agree that he was out of line, it feels like a disproportionate response. This feels like something you'd get fined or suspended over. I would expect a dirtsheet to report "backstage heat" on Kevin Kelley, and not much beyond that.

I mean, Andrade and Sammy Guevara got in a fight a while back, and they got sent home for a while, and that was it. CM Punk "lunged" at Tony Khan, and he did get fired, but it took Tony a week to decide. So I'm kind of thinking Kelley's tweets were just the tip of the iceberg, and he's been getting on AEW's nerves for a while now until they finally decided they'd had enough.

Everyone points to his NJPW work as a career highlight for him, but I'm starting to think that was just a low bar that he managed to clear. New Japan wants an English commentary track on their shows, but they're not exactly making it a priority. I've watched NJPW shows where the English commentary just wasn't available, or it was just Chris Charleton doing it solo, or with an English-speaking wrestler sitting in, or Kevin Kelley doing a remote thing from the U.S. Have they even replaced him yet?

I found his work in NJPW serviceable, but mostly because it was handy that I could understand what he was saying. Still, the Japanese commentary team had way, way more energy. There were times I could get into the Japanese commentary just because of their excitement. Most of the time, Kevin Kelley just seemed happy to be there. And that isn't enough to cut it in AEW.

A lot of people have complained about his low-effort work. I can't say I really noticed, but I guess that's part of the problem. Nigel McGuinness is an obnoxious heel, Tony Shiovane's constantly marking out like a small child who just got into wrestling, and Excalibur's a super nerd who memorized all the move names and stats. What's Kevin Kelley got? That Bobby Hill battle cry from... 2001? Holy shit, I knew it was old, but damn. Kelley bragged on Twitter that he's the best play-by-play guy in the business, but he can't even articulate why he thinks that. If he can't sell himself to the audience, how can he put over anyone else?

I've heard rumors that he's a fascist, or he's involved with Qanon. That might be an exaggeration, but the drama he started on Twitter had to do with his support for that "Sound of Freedom" movie, which has been criticized for stoking Qanon conspiracy theories. A smarter performer might realize that it's not a good idea to link himself to a controversial topic like this, but Kevin Kelley seems to be a true believer in the movie's message, so when his Ian Riccaboni calls him out on it he doubles down.

And maybe that's enough to get him fired, but if this is his attitude, then I have a feeling he's been pushing "Sound of Freedom" or some other nonsense to anyone who'll listen, and probably making a nusiance of himself backstage, and this Twitter thing has been the last straw. If he had enough talent, maybe Tony could let it slide, but he's whipping out "That's my purse!" when a wrestler gets hit in the balls, so I'm pretty sure they could find someone less disruptive to make those kinds of insightful calls.

Anyway, I'm watching Collision right now, and I can't say that I miss the guy. If he's really drinking the Qanon Kool-Aid, then fuck him, but otherwise he was just sort of there, utterly dispensable and barely noticeable.

12 May 1994 Jarvis Interview - Acrylicafternoons.com

The week before Pulp began their French tour to promote the newly released His 'n' Hers LP, Jarvis was interviewed by a journalist from a French newspaper in what sounds like a busy London café. The following is edited from the transcript of their 45 minute chat. Complete interview transcription: Here

Could you describe the other musicians in the band and tell me what kind of people they are?

Well, I'll have a go. Russell has been in the band the longest apart from myself. He joined at the end of 1984 [actually end 1983!]. I'd say he's probably the most intense person in the group as people will probably guess because of his stare. He's always had a piercing stare. It was always his method of getting girls. If he liked someone, he would just stare at them until they got so intimidated by it they'd come up and ask him why he was staring at them. And then they'd start talking! But because he's so intense, he's not the easiest person to get on with. I think sometimes people find him difficult, but he is a father now and I think that's calmed him down a bit. You can't stare at your child or it'll start crying! So it's kind of smoothed the edges off him a little bit.

He is quite unique - I've never met anybody else remotely like him... ever, so that's quite good. He's also a very good cook. He's unpredictable. I think that's the main thing he provides in the group - he's quite a random factor. Sometimes he'll play things completely out of tune, and you'd think 'what are you doing?', and then other times he'll play something that nobody else would think of playing. Like everybody in the group he's self-taught, so none of us know anything about scales or which notes should follow which, so it's always a bit of a lottery. But I think you get more interesting things that way otherwise you might just follow a formula. So that's Russell.

The next person to join was Candida. I think it's very important that she's in the band because she's a girl. I think often with bands if it's all boys together then no matter what you're like, it tends to get a bit kind of rugby club mentality. You know like when you hear men talking in a pub, most of what they're talking about is a load of crap. They just brag-off to each other, and most of it's lies. And it can get like that in groups sometimes so it's good to have a female influence. People always used to think Candida was a child because she's so small. She's probably the most stable person in the group - she's very reliable. Well, she's not very reliable in things like turning up on time, but you can always rely on her to be even-tempered and level-headed.

She also collects very bright things. She's quite funny because she gets a bit self-conscious at times. We were doing a video yesterday and she doesn't like being photographed or anything, so she drank a bottle of gin just to mime playing the keyboards, which was funny! She didn't even seem drunk either. Again, she's unique as well because I've never met another person like her.

So the next person to join was Nick. I suppose Nick is most normal person in the group - being the drummer - and he's strange in some ways in that sometimes he seems to want to put on this exterior of being a gruff northern man who's just interested in eating pie and chips. But he isn't really like that - he's quite well educated. He worked as a teacher - design and technology or something like that - and I suppose he's probably the most cagey person in the group in that you don't know what he's thinking about a lot of the time because he doesn't volunteer information about personal things. He prefers to talk about football and things like that.

And then there's Steve the bass player who was the last one to join in 1988. He used to be in a very bad heavy metal band. Well it wasn't heavy metal - they kind of missed their time because they were a bit like the Stooges and stuff like that. But since then there've been lots of groups that have tried to do that kind of thing, but no-one else was really doing it at that time. But he left to come down to London. I'd say he's the most efficient person in the band. He's good at being organised. When we make videos he produces them because he can phone people up and organise things to be at certain places at certain times.

He's currently homeless and living in a hotel. I think his life's in a bit of disarray at the moment which I feel a bit sorry for him about. He's probably the best looking person in the band and lots of girls like him. And I don't blame them! He's also the tallest member of the band - he's about an inch taller than me. I suppose I kind of know him best because we both live in London and so we tend to see each other more than the rest of the group who still live in Sheffield. So we go out to concerts together and things like that.

Random: This is going to make me sound incredibly stupid, I know, but please bear with me: So, on one hand, I'm kinda hesitant/scared to post about good news... even when I'm really excited about it, I'm afraid people will think I'm bragging and then dislike that something good happened to me (for once🫠). But on the other hand, I'm also hesitant to share bad news, aka things I'm struggling with, because then I'm afraid people will think I'm too negative and that I'm toxic for their mental health... so, in the end, I just kinda end up bottling everything up... which, I know, isn't good, either.

BLIND DATE Cruella/reader

A series of one-shots per day, THIS IS NOT A LINEAR STORY, IT CONTINUES TIME JUMPS AND DIFFERENT SITUATIONS.

For all Cruella lovers like me.

It doesn't follow the linear story of the movie, I try to be as faithful to the character as possible but I welcome your constructive criticism.

I hope for recommendations of fics like this because I really need to satiate my crush with fics of her.

my ao3 user is Ari_28laufeyson let me know if you like it, thanks.

English is not my first language, I am sorry for any translation error.

BLIND DATE

I was nervous too nervous I would say, it is the first time I take a blind date.... Maybe it wasn't a good idea to listen to Artie in the first place, I knew he was up to something which I haven't figured out yet and I don't have time to think about it anymore, just to act.

----------------------------

- T/N, honey you should consider it, not for nothing, but you could use some social interaction, I'm not asking you to confirm a relationship the same day you meet him or her, since it's blind, if you don't find the person attractive or not interested you can leave, and I assure you that I'll never mention it again, but meanwhile do this for you... and a little bit for me- I mention with a little laugh while I sketch a mischievous smile.

-I don't know Artie, for starters, you know my attraction is to women, I don't want to deal with men and I don't know exactly who I'm going to see.

-Calm down, look, I won't be able to be with you, but I assure you that it can't be that bad, if you don't like who sits in front of you, you can leave", he pauses for a long pause thinking.

-I'm worried about the confidence with which you are talking to me about this.

-I would never risk you to something bad, I would be incapable and you know it, let's think about it for a moment.

I make a long pause to think, I'm afraid it won't work, what I'm looking for is without labels, something confusing for these times... the 70's I must be careful with whom I meet, although I don't consider myself a "lesbian" person precisely, my attraction to girls can bring me problems because of conservative thoughts, fortunately a small part of the united kingdom is evolving its thinking. Another point to consider, is that really as the name says it's blind, I don't know the name or the sex, I guess that makes it more exciting, although it gives more nerves.... Damn you Artie and damn the newspaper where you got the number of the place that organizes this kind of thing.

-Okay I'll do it, but I warn you, this is the last time you convince me to do this- I let out an all too noticeable sound of disgust- I guess you've beaten me, I respect that.

-Relax, I'm sure it will be fine," he blurted out, "now another matter to attend to my dear T/N, how are you planning to dress?

-Normal, do you want to manage my outfit too?

-Thank you for the invitation, I'll gladly accept it, I want you to be perfect, to attract attention and to be particularly seductive", he smiles a mischievous and contagious smile.

-Well, what do you have in mind Artie?" I seductively mention her name and play along.

- I've got it covered, I'll bring it to you Saturday night.

----------------------------

I hear the doorbell ring and I know I have to get ready now, fresh out of the shower, I head to open the door for my soul mate.

- Ready T/N? - she says with a particular excitement.

- Sure, I won't lie that your excitement is contagious- as I smile at her with a bit of nervousness.

----------------------------

-You look perfect my dear, not to brag I know you are beautiful you shine on your own, but... you shine in a particular way today- she says while looking at me through the full length mirror.

-Thank you Artie, after all this isn't so bad, I've had fun so far," I laughed a sincere laugh.

-Well my dear, you look spectacular, I knew I made a good choice of outfit," smiling proudly.

Thanks to that comment I concentrate in observing myself, a nice leatherette skirt and a white t-shirt with a leather jacket and my respective high boots, my long hair down my back giving it volume, wow... I've dressed like this before only this occasion is particular... I like it; I smile to myself while I look at myself through the mirror and then I hug Artie as a thank you.

I walk into one of the most elegant coffee shops in the city... a quiet place, which is almost always the other way around because of the amount of people that usually are in these places, I laugh to my inner self to simulate my inner anxiety.

-Excuse me," I call the waitress next to me who quickly looks at me.

-Yes, tell me.

-Could you direct me to table 13 please.

-Of course, follow me.

Every step I take makes me uneasy, going up the steps I notice that the second floor is empty, that reduces the chances of finding the wrong person, I lower my head for a moment just guided by the steps of the waitress in front of me, when I finally get the courage to raise my eyes I find that the table in front of me is a person with two-colored hair... Damn it.

Artie I'm going to kill you... I say under my breath as I approach with more trepidation than I had before.

The waitress signals me to take a seat and leaves us alone in the room making as little noise as possible, while I get up the courage to do it... she hasn't seen me yet that I'm behind her back... I'm not even aware that I'm behind her back.

First time we crossed glances... my knees are shaking... god.

-Hi, I can't believe I'm doing this by speaking to her.

-Hello dear, go ahead and sit down.

Without a second thought I do, not wanting to look rushed, I don't know if I dare my eyes her mere presence radiates elegance and imposes, and..... strangely I find that highly attractive.

- Would you ladies like to order?

-Just one espresso," she mentions and finally waits for my answer.

-Oh umm, a cappuccino with an apple strudel please- after my answer the waiter withdrew with a suffocating silence. I certainly don't know how to make a conversation, much less with her.

-What's your name my dear, I'm intrigued to know," she says with a smile, hell, does this woman always act seductive?

-T/N, T/N Halper and I guess there's no need to talk about yours, everyone's talking about you, cruella. - she smiled softly

-T/N, dear, tell me why you are here with me right now on this brilliant evening.

-I was persuaded to take a blind date, I certainly didn't expect to run into the woman everyone is talking about.

And it's true since I heard about her, in the newspapers, television and what they were talking about, being overnight the trend, it caught my attention but I avoided talking about it, I didn't want to think about it so much, once or twice I only mentioned Artie since he told me everything he did, they are close friends working hand in hand but I never thought he would do this to me, everything was coldly calculated for this reason I wanted her to be perfect? Does he see me as a possible candidate for a relationship with the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life? - I can't be I'm feeling the heat rising in my face I had not admitted it until now.

- Did I say something wrong precious?

God save me I'm burning up inside.

-Hey, no, no, no, of course not, sorry, I got distracted for a moment," I let out a nervous laugh and cleared my throat a little.

-Well, tell me about yourself.

I can see the interest in her eyes, which are so hypnotizing, I could watch them all day long.

-Emm well, I work as a photographer, I'm passionate about experimenting with it, playing with colors and aesthetics, it's purely artistic what I'm passionate about and I fall in love with what I do if I can show off, I usually do exhibitions or do experimental photo shoots more if their style is similar to mine, so they don't put restrictions on me.

-I would love to see your work my dear.

-Sure one day you can come to my studio, although I guess the great designer's schedule must be busy.

-No problem dear, I accept your invitation.

I just notice her smiling a little smile, for God's sake don't blush.

Our order arrives and oh no the coffee is delicious, but... I'm more focused on her I can't help but see her, I'll go slower I want to make this moment longer and part of it I enjoy, it's just as delicious this moment as the coffee?

- are you a coffee connoisseur dear?

Not really, I just enjoy it. I can't help but look into her eyes without being self-conscious.

-I won't lie to you I prefer tea much more, I love jasmine tea.

I can notice a bit of nostalgia in the last sentence, I prefer to ignore that before turning this into an awkward moment.

-However, there are days when I feel like I need a little of this caffeine to feel a little bold, that's when I feel the most creative.

-I understand, it's the chocolate that activates me- I let out a small laugh with more confidence.

Apparently she liked my comment, she laughed inside with a big smile on the corners of her lips. The rest of the date was unimportant conversations like tastes, hobbies, nothing went deeper, at the end of the day this date only helps to make an impression, if she likes my company surely we could go out again. After finishing what we ordered I felt it was time to end the date.

-Waiter the check please.

-Don't worry T/N it's already taken care of we can go out now.

- What, you paid the bill for me? I can't have that cruella.

-Be calm, it's not a problem for me, let it go my dear- I reluctantly accept it, although very sorry, once outside the place I hear her voice quickly catching my attention.

-It's already very late dear, do you think I'm going to leave you where you live?

-No of course not, I don't want to cause you so much trouble cruella.

-Dear T/N, I found your company most exquisite, believe me you were no bother to me at all -she says with great confidence.

- Well, I accept this time.

I notice how in front of us is her car with what I guess is her driver, who opens the door for me and then I thank him. The way home was silent after I said my address, although I could notice her gaze on me in some occasions, It took us about 15 minutes approximately, the driver opens the door and gives me his hand to get out of the car carefully.

-Thank you for bringing me here," I say outside my house.

-It's no problem, oddly enough, it's on my way.

I let out a small smile

- Would you like to come in?

-No, thank you, I have to go.

-Okay, I guess I'll see you later, bye, then I open the door with my key and once I enter I say goodbye with my hand, he answered me the same way. I stay static behind the door, what just happened? I say to myself...while I hear voices.

- Wow, you have to tell me how it went.

-Horace, I'll tell you tomorrow, okay?

-I'm sure I won't forget to ask, she's very pretty and they would look great as a couple. Having said that, I hear the car start, so I see that this idea doesn't seem so crazy because of the driver, who seems to be more cruella's friend, Horace is his name... surely he thinks the same as Artie... who I'll kill when I see him leaving aside the deception that made me take this date...

I would love to do it again.

20 questions for Fic Writers

Thanks for tagging me @talkstoself

1. How many works do you have on A03?

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

102,210

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Currently Miraculous Ladybug, Batman, and Maribat, but I've been known to dip into Doctor Who, Austin & Ally, and the Thundermans (though the Austin & Ally can only be found in the Internet Archive because middle-school-me was wild. And it has a different username so happy hunting lmao)

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

5. I'm Gone, Gone, Gone, Gone 4. 1 - Sofa 3. 7 - Breeding Kink (Honorable Mention: Babies) 2. Buzz Buzz Bitch 1. Tag Teamed on the Tower (I really should have seen that cumming)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes! Because I feel guilty if I don't Because I don't honestly get a ton, so I can't be overwhelmed by it. If I was a big name, maybe I wouldn't reply to as many, but I don't get a ton, so I find it easier to handle. This is not me fishing for comments, I swear. I'm just as guilty of not commenting (I'm trying to do better, but I don't always remember, and I don't always have it in me. I do always kudos, though). I write for me (mostly), but if you enjoy it, great! If not, to each their own. But never feel obligated to comment on my fics. I would rather you read and say nothing than feel stressed/guilty for not commenting.

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

...hm. Considering the majority of my fics are either unfinished or prompted oneshots, I don't have a lot with angsty endings. I do have a lot with angst, though. Angsty ending? Hm. I'm going to have to go with I'm Gone, Gone, Gone, Gone.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Again with the ending thing 😂 It doesn't help that a lot of them are open-ended. And what kind of happy are we talking? Happy😁 or Happy 😏? But also you've asked one of the most indecisive people on the planet. The last one was easier. The whole thing is angst. (And I generally try to stick to happier/hopeful endings.) This, though? Pass. Someone else pick.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not on AO3? But AO3 is also bigger, and I don't post a lot. I live in my dark little corner on the interweb. I think most of the hate I've gotten was on FFN, and even then, I don't get a lot. Perks of writing for big fandoms, updating inconsistently, and generally having shorter fics. You get lost in the mix. (This is not a brag, but it's also not a complaint. I'm happy in my corner. Well...I'm content. Not ecstatic, not suffering.)

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Lots of smut. Does it all get posted? No 😂 Half, no, more than half of it doesn't even get written. You can guess on the kind. I have things that I won't write, but I feel like those are pretty limited. If I don't know it and it isn't a limit, I would probably at least try. (Ex: my most popular fic is a threesome, which I've never had, with a hemipene, which I've also never dealt with (I mean in the toy sense, I know human people do not have hemis.))

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

I don't write a lot of them. I'm just dipping my toes into writing them (for now, solely Maribat). I've had a shit ton of ideas for them (years ago I had one for a Doctor Who x H2O: Just Add Water fic, but that remains an idea in my OneDrive)

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

If I have, I don't know about it. I'm a singular grain of sand in a whole beach of authors. I'm harder to find, and I'm certainly not well-written enough for it. (At least, not to me.)

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope :)

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Nope. Sounds scary. :)

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

As a general life rule, I don't have favorites lmao. Mostly because I'm indecisive as hell. Minimally because then something will be left out.

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

Gonna steal TalksToSelf's answer and go with: All of them 😭

16. What are your writing strengths?

Porn. Porn and Depression. Angst. Occasionally fluff. Mostly Porn, though.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Flow. Word variation. Consistency. Inspiration/Motivation. I could go on, but those are enough for now.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

Mostly, I'll write in italics/bold/(not quotes but I'm blanking... the two different apostrophes???)'these' and indicate what it was spoken in, but if it's a singular word/phrase, like a nickname, I normally just use the word itself, with an explanation for it at some point in the fic.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Austin & Ally

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

I do not have a favorite child. I love and hate them all equally.

No pressure tagging @hamsteriffic @miraculouslymundane @littlemourningstar @izanae @boldlyanxious ... I'm done. Someone else take over tagging people.

#tag games #trying414 #trying414writes #trying414 writes #trying414's writing #my writing #fanfictions #fanfics #fanfic #trying414's fanfics #idk #i'm done tagging lmfao

WHYYYY do you use AAVE? You're fucking bRiTiSh, the CHILD of ENGLAND AND SWEDEN, LITERALLY THE WHITEST COMBO EVER. You sound so stupid lmao "finna get some fish an' chips. Oi oi, bestie, haters be killing the vibe with tea an' crumpets, guvnuh! Chewsday gonna be hella lit, bruv!" headass Your music career is gonna flop once people see what a pathetic poser you are. No wonder you're called ""Atrocity"" lmaooo Everything about you is a disaster

First, I'm fully, officially Swedish. Documented and certified. Check my records, ask my Papa. Don't ask Arthur, because his opinion doesn't matter.

Second...

Third, I could brag about my ongoing accomplishments, but truthfully? You aren't worth it.

You sound like a WASP, to be honest, one of those annoying types with the nasally Valley Girl voice who makes their whole personality about shopping at Urban Outfitters and listening to some indie, obscure artists like Local Natives or Hippo Campus or some shit. "Finna get some fish and chips" You can't even do AAVE right.Lemme guess: you are also the type to complain, "why can Black people say the N word but I can't?" and that is why your "friends" don't talk to you. Maybe make friends outside of your group of Kensleighs and Jeffersons and you might pick up on the intricacies of AAVE without sounding like a Karen.

You're probably a Plain Jane or an Average Joe sporting a Hank Hill ass, just straight back all the way down to your calves. Probably the one who was always picked last for teams at recess or P.E. and never got a Valentine's Day card at school. To make up for being a dullard no one wants around, you tried to make yourself "quirky" by Naruto running down the hall and growling at people, and then bitch and moan to the principal about the bullying you rightfully deserved, you fucking Mary Sue, Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way ass bitch. I would ask you "where are you in life?" but I'm not really interested (I bet you hear that a lot in your life) because it's the same thing day in and day out for you, isn't it? Get out of bed, consider a drink at seven in the morning to get you through the workday, cry in the shower, clock in, work your hours, have a boring egg salad sandwich for lunch, clock out, and watch Eat, Pray, Love or Sex in the City for the third night in the row until you fall asleep. Or! Maybe you treat yourself occasionally by going to town with your Hitachi wand or your weird ass fleshlight until you collapse. Might I suggest switching it up with a vibrating buttplug or an ejaculating dildo? Surely, you're bored and sore with having that broomstick up your ass.

Anyways, your Mom is an OnlyFans whore, which is funny because, like you, she looks like a substitute teacher with allegations, and it's your dad that's the cum dumpster so he should be the OF whore, anyway. Either way, your mom shoulda had the good sense to swallow so that her disappointment of a kid wouldn't plague my presence and ruin my day with their boring ass decades later.

[dusts hands] Alright, I think that covers all of the bases! You may get out of my sight, now! And after you leave my sight, maybe think about changing your underwear and going to a clinic? Because I smell tuna and yeast and onion, yet there is not a filet-o-fish in sight, so that stink must be coming from somewhere.

#ic #i would add a read more because it's a bit much but #the read more keeps glitching out of place for some reason?? so why bother #anyway I've been sitting on the origins of Peter's love for Black culture for years #I guess now would be a good time to write it

Suck Torture | Interlude: Felix

Back Table of Contents Next

cw: bl00d, gore, possession, mentions of mvrder/mass mvrder

word count: 1k

Felix kept his head in low in his plate of food. He used his chopsticks to push around the grilled pork belly his parents got delivered. He wasn't hungry, but if he turned the meal upside down a few times, maybe he could drown out how self-obsessed his parents were.

Grinding his fangs and gripping his utensils tighter than usual, he was so detached and removed from his surroundings. Who could blame him? The man he's known and loved for years rejected him for a mortal. While handsome and charming, still a mortal. Jealousy crippled him. It was becoming impossible to bare.

If Felix bothered to tune into his parent's conversation, he'd hear them bragging about their corporate fortune in the insurance industry. He's listened to those boasts before. Felix knew he wasn't the most selfless vampire, but at least he didn't suck the blood (and the funds) of innocent families like his parents did. They were despicable in his eyes.

His dad's phone chimed on the table, all eyes darting to it briefly. Felix looked at his father across from him, his face read that of shock and confusion.

"Is everything alright?" His mother asked.

He didn't answer, fierce features driving focus to his phone screen.

"What is it?" Felix followed up.

"My brother, the one on the council, was murdered yesterday," He paused, throwing his chopsticks down on the table, "The Hwangs brought their vaepollyon abomination to the council and he killed half the line."

Felix's heart rate spiked. The Hwangs? The vaepollyon? There was a hint of guilt in him for immediately thinking of Hyunjin and his family rather than his own uncle. The guilt subsided when he remembered that his uncle was an uppity prick because of his authoritative status.

"That's tragic," His mother said, rather expressionless, "I'm so sorry."

"It gets worse," He said, "They were supposed to kill that halfer... Just for them to find out that he's immortal."

"Immortal as in, more immortal than us?" Felix asked, rightfully so. It didn't make sense for the vaepollyon to kill an immortal vampire, but not able to kill in return.

"I guess so." He snapped, "Council says he got away and they can't track him."

"That's awful, how could the council be so careless?" His mother remarked, just as emotionless as before.

"The council isn't careless, the Hwangs are. They knew what that thing was and they set out to wreck havoc," His father exclaimed, "Downright malicious, I'll say."

Felix knew more than his parents did. Felix knew that the vaepollyon was Niki, that Niki was in direct relation to Hyunjin. That Niki is wild and vulnerable. That Hyunjin and Beomgyu are vulnerable too. He knew a lot, maybe too much. And his dead heart pounded and pranced in his chest at the thought of it.

"May I be excused?" He asked. His parents remained silent, father shrugging without making eye contact.

His eyes were wide and manic, hands gripping the stirring wheel of his Lamborghini. A rush went through his petite body as he revved up the engine and the sound echoed off the walls of the parking garage.

Just then, his phone roared in vibration. It was another curfew alert from the city.

ATTENTION ALL RESIDENTS: Due to the rise in human huntings, the city will be enacting a new curfew for all humans. For your safety, please stay in your homes from the hours of 5:00pm and 8:00am as those are the darkest hours during the current season. The city will not take responsibility for those out past curfew.

"Classic."

Felix skirted wildly out of the garage and sped off into the city. He drove, to what felt like nowhere, until the sun went down. And as the city became consumed with darkness, he watched the sky for a demonic, winged creature. There was nothing to be seen for a while. It was seemingly peaceful.

Something caught Felix's eye in the distance. Glowing red orbs and a silhouette of a huge, winged man. He pressed his foot on the gas and propelled himself in his direction.

He sped off of the freeway and stopped by an empty field, abandoning his car at the side of the road. He ventured into the field keeping his eyes on the sky, on Niki. He seemed to be floating in the air, scoping out his prey. Felix knew the risk of standing below a creature so deadly.

His bright red eyes met Felix's and within milliseconds, he swooped down and tackled him to the ground.

Up close, he noticed Niki's blood stained mouth and fangs. He smelled the remains of multiple humans on his body.

"It must be nice to feast the way you have." Felix said shakily through gritted teeth.

Niki bared his bloody fangs, threatening Felix's life. That was until Felix hissed and let his canines sharpen to a point as well. Niki faltered at that as none of his victims have been vampires except for the council. His eyes even flickered in confusion.

"That's right, Niki," His deep voice grumbled, "I'm just like you."

Niki's hold lightened up, but he was steady on keeping Felix on the ground. Felix took a second to observe him closer. His clothes, while sophisticated were rather torn and almost destroyed. Pure vampires tend to look humane adjacent. But Niki had no trace of human resemblance. Merely possessed and soulless.

"And I know what you did to the council. You killed my uncle," He added, "And now you're out, killing humans, violating the treaty, breaking the spell and cursing us all."

Niki hissed, showing his fangs again. But Felix didn't budge.

"But I'm not here to tell you to stop," Felix continued, earning a questioning glare from Niki, "No, I'm here to advise you... I said I'm just like you and I meant it. Lonely, broken, abandoned. Abandoned by Hyunjin."

Niki's eyes flickered. That name, Hyunjin, seemed to snap him out of it. Not for long as his demonic nature dominated him. He must've killed too many humans to remember what it's like to be a civil vampire.

"Yeah, he left me too. But you don't see me taking that out on the innocent. I take it out on the root. And you should do the same... So what do you say? Let us destroy the root. Hyunjin and his little boyfriend."

Niki casted a wicked smile before throwing Felix on his back and flying away. Away to the tower in what used to be Niki's home.

Ohmygosh ohmygosh I just listened to Reincarnation Apple by PinnocchioP and it's awesome! My gosh, it pulled at my heart strings so much! :') I love it so much!

First of all, the art in this video is AMAZING! Like how that logo at the beginning transforms into an apple?? The whole gray and blue color scheme (in the beginning)?? Beautiful! I wanna animate like that!! But this story??? My goodness, you can't just pair this wonderful art with this story and not expect me to cry!!

Like, the beginning already starts off kinda rough for the lil bud. I wanna hug them! (And also this reincarnation apple sounds a lot like a drug 🤨) But then they reincarnate and WOW for a moment it's like the art style's changed! And the animation gets all smoother for the intro, I love it! But everything switches back for the verse, though.

Throughout all the lil lives, I love the underlying thread of this dude just. Never being fulfilled. Like sure, they'd bitten the apple to escape from their reality, to find fulfillment somewhere else, but they never get that release. In the first life, it seems at first like everything's going well, until you realize that talent doesn't help them connect with others and they're still lonely and bored. And they keep taking bites of the apple (emphasized by literally watching a chunk get bitten off after every life). In their next life, it's a bit more obvious that just talent won't fulfill them, which is why instead of bragging about their talent like they did in the first life, they just hope that the one thing they built brings fulfillment. But it blows up in their face and ruins everything, so they reincarnate again.

(They keep earing that darn apple. It gets more and more saddening as it goes on, cause you can tell that they just want to feel happy and secure and they think the apple will give them that, so they keep eating. But it doesn't, and it becomes more and more obvious that it doesn't, and it's just sad to watch them still keep going back to it over and over again.)

The beginning of.. I guess the chorus? Where it starts off with, "I don't have any talent, just change and reset. I'm not smart enough, just change and reset" hurts my heart. Like they're saying, "Of course this isn't working, I'm fundamentally flawed and it's my fault" as calmly as someone swiping left on a dating app and MY BUDDY, I JUST WANNA HUG THEM! :( Like they're treating this like the apple is guaranteed to work and they're just the reason why they feel lonely and sad, and it's so heart-breaking to hear! And the chorus! All the animation bleeds into each other and the lil bud looks so desperate, it just heightens that feeling! Like they're running desperately toward some sort of relief, some sort of sense of fulfillment, while at the same time running away from their actual life. And in that, everything blurs together and melts into nonsense except for the apple that they're running toward. The whole chorus is such good story-telling, it just paints a really clear picture that makes me so sad.

(Also, I feel like I've heard the chorus before. Just the chorus, though. For some reason.)

Then the music slowly gets more and more desperate to match the chaos that's happening in the story. Like the music in the third life is so sad and pleading, and the dude's pose—literally facing the camera with a pleading expression and hands clasped in prayer—reflects that. (Although at the same time, the music and pose reflects the actual life, where they're a savior, so it's cool and multifaceted like that.) Then, the way the music heightens a lil when the dude says that they were too innocent and got deceived (in a way that highlights it as yet another flaw), plus how it kind of cuts out a little when they say "Oh, I screwed up again," makes me feel like the failures and deaths are piling on top of each other one by one, weighing down like "Of course I died again" with the implicit resigned what did I expect, it's not like I will ever feel happy anyway. And the next life they overcompensate, both by becoming a revolutionary and through the hero-like music in the background. And you can see the despair and hopelessness more on their face with how desperate they look yelling for a moment. Even though the lyrics describe them as heroic, it's obvious that they're just pushing hard to feel some sort of accomplishment. But they still mess things up and reincarnate again. (And their expression when they realize they messed things up, again? It's like they're thinking, "No, not again!" Like they were running away from their fears of things not working out again and they were confronted with the stark reality that despite how hard they tried, they still messed up. So the chorus rings so extra desperate this time.)

Then the last (I can't say fifth because it's implied that they had a TON of reincarnations) life starts, and man is it overcompensating! This dude gets reborn into the stereotypical glamorized adventurer role, as if going for something so idolized and assumed to be fulfilling will finally let them be happy. And all the shots make it seem like they're happy, too, with the wide scenery shots and confident poses, and even the music rises to a triumphant peal. (But the shot of their face, where they're climbing the cliff and they're worried and scared? That's the true feeling, not just what they appear like from the outside. Even the lyric at that moment, "Everyone marveled at me as I took on the most challenging ordeal," emphasizes how they appear to be happy but never says anything about how happy they actually are.) But again, they fail and mess stuff up. All the lives (that we've seen) flash behind the dude falling, like they're finally falling from the weight of all these failures weighing on them. And the line, "What destination will suffice?" strikes cleanly into the heart of the issue. They're never satisfied, never fulfilled. What will it take for them to be fulfilled? They've gone through all this already, how much will it take for them to be satisfied? Will they ever even get there? And when the chorus hits, it's got a few extra voices in the background that makes everything feel like it's tinted rosy in a sad way, like when you look back at memories and they don't hurt as much and you realize that you learned from them. (Like it starts off as if it's going to be triumphant, but it goes down instead of up and wavers like the singer's either unsure or holding back tears. That's the part that really almost makes me cry, that sense of resolution at last but the pain that comes from finding it through painful experiences.)

Finally, everything switches back to reality, and even the music switches back to the same way it was at the beginning of the song. (And also, touching on the art! This whole time, the main character's hair has been down covering one of their eyes, exacerbating their sad boi look and [especially later] making them look like they're hiding something from the audience. Not in a malicious way, though. And that sometimes gets used/referenced, like how in the first life that covered eye makes them seem mysterious and successful, or how in the last life them lifting a headband off their normally showing eye imitated a confident pose [showing both their eyes to the audience to make them seem self-assured] but not completely [keeping one eye covered, revealing that they're trying to look confident without fully feeling confident]. But when they wake up, their hair is completely up and showing both eyes. It's kinda an artistic way of showing that they learned something from all of their lives and gained a little self-assurance, if not confidence, and I really love it! Also the hairstyle reminds me of Shinsou Hitoshi from MHA, lol.) But anyway, everything's the same except the main character. They are full of open poses and body language when they finally wake up (no longer leaning forward and "hiding" themself but leaning back or having their arms spread wide, and finally freeing themself to not look composed all the time for the sake of others because they're not looking for others' validation to cover their own lack of internal validation anymore), again showing their newfound sense of resolution in themself. (Also, I really like the line, "Everyone quits once they're sober, a sense of self, we become mindful." It says a lot about the buddy's new mindset now that they're back in reality.) Basically everything says that they've matured and gotten more confident after their reincarnations. And finally, instead of seeking the reincarnation apple for fulfillment, they throw it in the trash and, presumably, start to make a new, satisfying life for themself in reality. So much growth for this lil buddy! I'm so happy for them! And I'm so glad that this song ends with a lighter note, cause I was scared it wouldn't.

Basically, for all the reasons I highlighted in my little essay lol, I really like this song. It's so emotional yet fulfilling, and the music is wonderful to listen to too! It is already on multiple playlists, including my Vocaloid one. Thanks @/okcomputerrr for recommending me PinnocchioP (whose name I still keep misspelling, oof) cause now I've found one of my new favorite songs!

#oh my gosh I had such a fun time listening to this song!#MMMM one of my new favorite songs!!!#- I say a few days before finding a new song to latch onto lol #but it's still making it up there as one of my favs #reincarnation apple #pinocchiop #pinocchio p #pinocchio-p #kitty's reviews

LILY-ROSE DEPP - "WORLD CLASS SINNER / I'M A FREAK"

youtube

And finally we find out, once and for all, who actually watched The Idol! (Yes, we fell short on the CONTROVERSY, but we sure did learn a lot today...)

[3.26]

Aaron Bergstrom: Facts I have learned in the last fifteen minutes: (1) This was written for a TV show that scored a 19% on Rotten Tomatoes and was almost immediately canceled. (2) One of the main plot points of the show is that this song isn't very good and is actively hindering the attempted comeback of the pop star who performs it. (3) The pop star herself doesn't even like it. (4) That pop star is played by Johnny Depp's daughter, who is very much not a pop star in real life. (5) The song was written as an obvious parody of The Weeknd ... by The Weeknd himself. It is both boring and deeply unsettling at the same time, but I guess that was the goal? So, congratulations, I hate it. [0]

Rose Stuart: "World Class Sinner / I'm a Freak" has the same problems as The Idol: it's not just bad, it's obviously bad, in a way that becomes only more stark when you know what it's trying to do. The song is a parody of woman-centered sex jams that doesn't understand why the originals work. It tries to give Tove Lo--especially with the moans in the beat, the only interesting idea the song has--but falls flat. The song wants to drip with sex, but the lyrics feel more like an oil spill than a tease, unless you happened to take a sip of your drink just in time for the line "and every weekend/ I've gotta find someone to bang." Musically, it's a low drone, with Depp sounding like your bored coworker at karaoke while the instrumental lies cold and lifeless underneath her. Worse still, the droning beat, oversexed yet sexless lyrics, and attempts at bravado that are more humiliating than impressive are from a song by The Weeknd, the lost companion to "The Hills" and "Earned It." While a singer delivering a terrible acting performance is a long and well-worn road, "World Class Sinner / I'm a Freak" is even more damaging to The Weeknd's reputation than The Idol's long list of damages. A bad performance and an embarrassing series of tweets can be forgiven, but "World Class Sinner / I'm a Freak" says the worst thing a song can: if this is the hit The Weeknd writes for his passion project, maybe he's not as good as we thought. Maybe he never was. [1]

Katherine St Asaph: Producer Asa Taccone co-wrote "Dick in a Box" and also a Charlotte Gainsbourg song, a factoid that explains this single better than anything you or I can write. You have a nepo baby dropping "Barbie Girl" references, extolling the virtues of the "dumb but cute" himbo ratio (which isn't even phrased as a ratio) and bragging about looking for "someone to bang" -- all played as unironically dead-eyed seduction. Even without watching The Idol -- because why whould anyone do that -- it's exceedingly obvious that this was intended as a "Buddha's Delight" atrocity. It's also typical that the Weeknd couldn't imagine a woman delivering one of his standard scumbag songs without adding bitchy gold-digger lines and half-assed pseudo-femdom-but-actually-sub posturing. But that backing track -- crystalline, nocturnal, perfect -- is as undeniable as the song is unserious. (Ciara's "Dance Like We're Making Love" comes to mind.) A corrosive fave. [5]

Taylor Alatorre: "But that's not what ratios are!! That doesn't make any sense!!!"" I scream, helplessly banging my fists against the sealed glass walls of the enclosure. The woman on the other side offers only a forlorn smile and a set of downcast eyes, replying in a small, apologetic voice, "I know. But I can't do anything about it. I'm trapped here, in a fictional hit song within a fictional universe, where the normal laws of sense-making and hit-making don't apply. As long as it sounds vaguely like something that would've made the bottom rungs of the Rhythmic charts five to ten years ago, that's all they really care about." Hearing this, I strike the wall with my fist one last time before slumping down onto the tiled linoleum, muttering something about a "Lonely Island Popstar throwaway" as I shake my head in resignation. "If you want, though," the woman continues, "you can pretend it's supposed to be a parody of one of those loopy Max Martin-written lines." "You mean like, 'now that I've become who I really are?'" "Yeah, that one." [4]

Ian Mathers: I never watched the show -- is there an in-universe reason for this being so boring yet so ostensibly horny? Did they hire a Depp for the method authenticity of not being very good at music? [2]

Josh Winters: As the only person at the Jukebox who has admitted to watching the entirety of The Idol (hear me out), I find myself at a loss when I try to think of how the context of the show helps to make a case for the strength of this song. If the showrunning team was self-aware in how the show folded into the banality and vapidity it was trying to depict, the big risk they took didn't really pay off. And if Lily, Abel, and co. thought this was a quality tune, might I suggest they take a class at the Ally School of Pop Songwriting if they ever get the chance to go for a second season? What tries to present itself as an irresistible appetizer delivers only empty calories that leave you questioning what the hell you just ate, and in that sense "World Class Sinner / I'm a Freak" does its job in representing the experience of watching The Idol without having to see a single episode. [4]

Claire Biddles: I actually watched all of The Idol in my capacity as a citizen of Troye Sivan Nation ("Rush" would have gotten a [10] from me!!), and had the show actually succeeded as a satire/take-down/whatever it was supposed to be, this would have gotten a higher score. It's a decent facsimile of a dead-behind-the-eyes sexy comeback, but in the context of the show it's positioned as serious and actually transgressive (I think?) It's not knowing, so it doesn't work at all. "Every weekend I'm trying to find someone to bang" got a genuine laugh from me though, so I guess I'll give it a: [2]

Harlan Talib Ockey: I did not watch The Idol, and I absolutely will not be watching it knowing the horrors it contains. But this is obviously and literally a Weeknd song. I can hear him singing it. The lyrics are so hilariously over-the-top that there is no way to read this other than campy irony. (And they're still not too far off from some Weeknd songs.) It's objectively funny that the Weeknd's parody song sounds almost exactly like the rest of his discography, but it is a truth universally acknowledged that most fictional songs written to be bad will end up being very good. [7]

Leah Isobel: These hooks are big and juicy, but Lily-Rose Depp is a screen actor, not a pop performer; she doesn't have the vocal charisma or presence to really sell this, and I can hear The Weeknd's ghost in the empty space between her and the song. That could be by design. But I can also hear that ghost wrestling with the spectre of camp -- and, fortunately for us all, losing. [5]

Alfred Soto: Based on a show I've never heard of and am supposed to despise, "I'm a Freak" drops one of the more unexpected "bitch" lines in recent years and is okeedokee as far as mid-tempo synth jams. Docked a notch for the flat vocal. [4]

Joshua Minsoo Kim: I still remember when I first tried talking dirty, and this girl had to be like, "No, you don't have the inflection right. Say it more like this." It was funny and fun, and I'm grateful we communicated so openly, for both our sakes. It's rare you hear a song that channels this sort of unpracticed unsexy, the kind where you end up thinking, "Oh, so no one's told you yet...?" I laugh every time Lily-Rose Depp sings, "Get ready to become my bitch" without any intensity, or when she mentions "whip and chains" with the enthusiasm of someone reading a grocery list. And then she throws me for a loop during the bridge, mistaking speed for seduction. "[I'm] no beginner," she eventually claims. It's okay, I tried saving face too. [6]

Tara Hillegeist: One of those single-line critiques that's always stuck with me for the precision with which it said, with both empathy and brutality, the exact failings of what its writer was tasked with reviewing was a now-vanished review of the then-new debut single from the Pussycat Dolls, "Don't Cha." The review noted that Tori Alamaze's original release of the song, from her own attempt at a solo career, had the energy, edge, and personality to give the song's boast about "a freak like me" actual weight, while the Dolls couldn't sound less sincerely freakish if they'd actually tried. In much the same way, I can't pretend my reaction to this song isn't colored by the working experience that comes from my having a girlfriend I'm blessed to be the domme for in a 24/7 D/s relationship. No matter how thirsty and yearning they might be to get the good good strap, no self-respecting submissive in the world would be able to fool themselves enough into believing a word of a performance that sounded like the limp, unremarkable delivery Depp provides for "so get down on your knees and get ready to become my bitch" for a fucking second, much less long enough to respect her with a second of their fucking. It's insulting to every single girl who wants to be a bitch for someone to act like they don't deserve a better effort than this. I mean, for Christ's sake, they'll get freakier than this in public at the Vatican. [1]

Brad Shoup: No I did not watch The Idol. Yes my head slumped to my chest when I heard "whip and chain". I like that it's languid; when Depp picks up the cadence it never bodes well. [4]

Nortey Dowuona: As someone who admires Prince's incredible musical talent and dreams to reassert control of his art, let us never forget he married a teenager and conceived a child with her once he could not legally be prosecuted for it. And then made a whole press conference to dump her. And tried to kill Sinead O'Connor for covering his song. And fired Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. And kept firing his band at a whim. And I wanted to say all that because when Abel Tesfaye dies while visiting Ethiopia once again and is given a state funeral, and we are writing tributes to "Die For You," this terrible show and song will be swept under the rug so we can justify the delusion we have about the artists we loved: that their most vile, egregious behavior should be forgotten once they pass. We can't let that happen. And we also need to remember Graffiti Bridge. Can't forget Graffiti Bridge. [0]

Michelle Myers: The best thing I can say about this song is that it makes me want to listen to Tove Lo. [2]

Kayla Beardslee: We have Tove Lo at home. [4]

Will Adams: From "On a Roll" to "Hair Body Face" to this, the micro-genre of "fictional pop song that is a huge hit in its universe" remains as tiresome as ever. Forget the commentary that's meant to evoke "this is the pop machine at its worst! behold how cynical it is!!" We're supposed to believe that this post-Weeknd sludge is some chart-topping smash? That's where the illusion falls apart; difficult as it may be, if your fake platinum pop star doesn't sound like platinum, then what's the point? [4]

Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: Largely indistinguishable from a Tate McRae song. [3]

Jackie Powell: Lily-Rose Depp's delivery on the hook of "World Class Sinner / I'm A Freak," where she nonchalantly croons "I'm just a freak, yeah," twice per chorus, was made for the TikTok algorithm that it conquered. That edgy yet self-deprecating phrase is relatable enough without the context of the television show that the song was written for. But the latest musical installment of the fictional woman pop star is also the least compelling. A common thread between the pop songs that Lady Gaga sang as Ally Maine in A Star is Born, Miley Cyrus sang as Ashley O in Black Mirror, and even what Natalie Portman sang as Celeste in Vox Lux was the fact they were composed by actual women who have experienced what the music industry is like for women in pop: suffocating, emotional and sometimes abusive. Depp is an actress but not a musician, and The Weeknd and Asa Taccone of Electric Guest are men. Dr. Paula Clare Harper, a musicologist at the University of Chicago, told Vulture that there are sonic similarities between "WCS/IAF" and The Weeknd's smash "Can't Feel My Face." But for this song to be effective, it couldn't just be a more feminine version of a Weeknd song, and that's mostly what it is. Taccone has written and produced a lot of musical satire for television and has also written catchy pop songs, like "Feel it Still" by Portugal. The Man and "Feels Right," an underrated Carly Rae Jepsen track from Dedicated. So why did he come up short here? It all comes back to the source material. On "Feels Right" Taccone had Jepsen as a co-writer and referred to her as "a natural leader." In other words, she is an authority on how women function and are treated within the music industry. That's something unattainable on "World Class Sinner," a song written about a woman and her plight by two men. [4]
