🌸🎲 for Chazz?
AAAA TY FOR SENDING AN ASK
music taste? That’s a good one. Chazz listens to SO MUCH My Chemical Romance. His favourite song is Teenagers, hes made too many Gerard Way fancams. He also likes evanescence and Melanie Martinez I think
typing style? I think there’s a good duality when it comes to who he’s talking to. He can send the most FORMAL emails because he was raised as a rich boy made to make no mistakes, but if he’s texting Jaden or something he just adds SO MANY exclamation points like,
“you should kys NOW you slacker!! c:<“
“love you too (^ν^)”

hiii vianey! bc i am predictable, ooo for the ask game if u havent done them yet? mwah mwah ty <33
hiii jessie, thank u for sending our beloveds mwah <33
onlyoneof;
• my first bias: taeyeob !!
• my current bias(es): taeyeob nd wookjin !!
• my album and/or era ranking (or favorite of each): i had to answer this one last bc i was having a terrible time ranking them but .. unknown art pop 2.1 > line sun goodness > dot point jump > produced by pt. 2 > instinct pt. 1 > produced by pt. 1 > instinct pt. 2 i wasnt expecting produced pt. 1 to rank so low but angel is just not my fave tt by them, still a good song nd its pretty fun but a little forgettable for me?
• how i got into them: i've been an orbit for like 5 yrs ? so as u probably already know jaden was orbits no.1 enemy .. i heard he was debuting a new group so i checked them out bc im nosy and unfortunately for me i ended up liking their music a lot ..
• which member would be my best friend: probably wookjin i think we r both kind of weird nd annoying so we would make a perfect (annoying) match
• something i associate with them (or with a bias/any member): choreo!!!! they have some of my favorite choreos in kpop its always sooo nice nd clean
send me a kpop group nd i'll answer 💖

Jaden (judai) 19
19. Wrapping presents together
“Hey, uh, [name]?” Jaden, your boyfriend, sounds sheepish as you finish tying a bow on top of a freshly wrapped box. 
“Yes?” You turn to find he somehow managed to tape his hands to the present he was wrapping. “How-?”
“I’m not entirely sure myself,” he chuckles as you help to free his hand. “Cyrus, probably doesn’t want my hand in his present.” 
“I don’t know about that, he’d probably wear it like a lucky charm.” You both laugh at the thought. “I just finished the ones for Alexis and Jesse, that just leaves...” 
“Hassleberry, Chazz, Bastion, and Blair, not to mention the ones we are sending to the guys overseas.” Jaden counts them off on his fingers. 
“Man, you went all out, I almost feel bad that I only got the ones that I did.”
“Don’t feel bad, you don’t know them like I do. Plus, you did get something for the ones you are friends with.” He pulls you into hug, bringing you flush against his chest seated between his legs. “I hope you can meet the others eventually.”
“Me too, the adventures you told me about sound wild!” 
“They were, but I’m more ready for them to slow down now.” He nuzzles the back of your head. You smile and enjoy the moment of closeness, but you both know he is trying to avoid wrapping anymore presents. 
“Jaden...”
“Yes?” 
“We need to get back to wrapping if you want any of these to get delivered on time.”
“Five more minutes,” he rests his chin on your shoulder, “I’m comfy.”  
“Okay, five more minutes,” you lean back against him. You were feeling pretty comfy too.

Reason Number Two! {{Major Spoilers}}
Kinda goes alongside reason 1>>> The second reason why I think Nick isn’t an evil prick is because he is, by nature, a bloodthirsty, homicidal, bay-shit crazy demon who thinks nothing deserves the sweet release of death. In short- he’s the Malachai. {{but he’s not JUST the Malachai, now is he?}}
I don’t know why this is so hard for some to grasp, but I’m serious on the whole he-acts-like,-a-million-times-better-than-any-of-his-fathers-before-him-thing. 100% serious about him being a big ‘ole Malachai. If you don’t believe me, google it. Also, if you were your own worst enemy ((literally speaking)) then you wouldn’t be happy either ((read the bottom if you haven’t read CON)).
Honestly- I think it’s easier to accept the fact that he’s a special bean rather than swim in Denial River.
Sorry to be the Bear of Bad News, but Nicky Gautier is a blue-eyed demon boy who the Simi loves and wishes she could eats. It’s a thing, people.
Key words being “demon boy.” I can’t stress this enough. And for those of you who haven’t read CON yet, allow me to educate you on the big bad nightmarish hatred-infused bloodsucking demon.
1.) they are the most hateful, angry demons. Period. They don’t give a fuuuuuuuuuuudge about who they hurt. The only time they’d care is if they personally wanted you dead {which is basically almost every being}. Ever.
2.) they have always been the most feared species of demonkyn. Ever since Monakribos curse his sons, to be exact. You know, beginning of Time and stuff.
3.) they are HELLA HELLA MACHO POWERFUL!!! I mean VERY POWERFUL. like, up there with gods and such.
Major powers include: ATTENTION!! THESE ARE COPIED FROM NICK’S (CON) WIKIPEDIA!! IT IS NOT MINE ORIGINALLY! I DID NOT WANT TO TAKE THE TIME TO TYPE THIS OUT, BUT IT IS FACT CHECKED AND WHAT NOT! PLEASE DON’T GIVE ME CREDIT OR WHATEVER FOR TYPING IT! hehe…anyhoo-
-Malachai Abilities:
Demon Glamour: Nick, due to being born from a race that were the consorts and soldiers to the dark gods, has extreme charisma and very good looks.
Demon Summoning: Nick was capable of summoning Caleb to an alternate universe and back again.
Divination: Nick has a talent for scrying. This means that he can see the past, present, and future on any reflective surface, though he seems to favor his black scrying mirror.
Empathy: The Malachai, being a creature born of hatred, has empathy so that it knows how to emotionally destroy his enemies. Nick uses this ability subconsciously to help his friends.
Enslavement: Nick is capable of enslaving a demon by saving his/her life. He accidentally did this to Zavid.
Eternal Enslavement: Nick is capable of tying an enslaved demon’s geish (or essence) to his powers, meaning that the demon will always be enslaved to whoever has his powers. Adarian did this to Caleb.
Eye of Ananke Absorption: By absorbing the power in the Eye of Ananke, Nick is now able to see all possible futures, instead of only seeing what is available in the Ether.
Fate god: Nick is capable of using the Eye of Ananke, something only fate gods are capable of doing.
Fear Factor: Malachai demons are the most feared of all demonkyn.
Elemental Control: Darkness Darkness Generation: Nick is capable of controlling the element of Night (through Noir). This allowed him to defeat Alternate Thorn with ease.
Electrokinesis: Nick is capable of creating lightning bolts.
Fire Blasts: Nick has the ability to produce extremely powerful balls of flame. These seem to function similarly to God-bolts and can disintegrate a Dramonk with a single hit.
Emotion Feeding: Nick grows stronger when in the presence of hatred and malice. When he went to prison his power increased.
God-killer: Nick is a god-killer in the sense that he is capable of killing gods without destroying the universe.
Healing: When Nick first tapped into his demonic heritage, his gunshot wound healed instantly. He also seems to be capable of healing others, such as when he healed Little Simi in the alternate universe.
Hidden Fate: Fate gods are incapable of using their innate abilities to see Nick’s true fate. When Acheron looked into Nick’s future, he saw Nick happily married with children instead of his Malachai heritage.
Immortality: Nick is immortal in the sense that he will never age. Though he could be killed by severe trauma, this is highly unlikely as it will upset the balance of the universe.
Immunity: The Malachai is immune to Chthonian powers as well as Acheron’s ability to make people desire him.
Languages: Nick has the ability to understand and speak any language. This extends to the Primal Language, which most high-level gods don’t know.
Lie Detection: Nick is implied by Ambrose to have this.
Magical Physiology: Nick’s blood, bones, and organs are magical by nature and can be used in several dark spells, such as when Xenon used some of his blood to send Devus’s master away.
Malachai Form: Nick is capable of unleashing his inner demon. In this form he has indestructible armor, claws capable of ripping enemies to shreds, fangs, vastly increased strength, speed and reaction time, and wings.
Mind Control: Nick is able to directly control the minds of others. This is seen in Instinct, where he confused the paramedics as well as the police officers.
Necromancy: Nick was capable of destroying the zombies the Mortents raised with a simple incantation and it has been said that once he receives enough training, he would be capable of restoring a soul from Azmodea, something that is said to be Jaden’s specialty.
Omniscience: Due to his connection to the ether, Nick can be considered omniscient with him being able to know anything at any given time.
Perspicacity: Nick can see through all disguises. The first time this ability manifested, he was capable of seeing Acheron in his “Harbinger” form, something even other gods are incapable of doing.
Pith Point Moving: Nick is capable of moving Pith points, something the Arelim (guardians of Time and Order) believe to be impossible. It is possible that he inherited this power from Jaden, seeing as Jaden does believe it to be possible.
Poisonous Blood: Nick’s blood is poisonous to Arelim.
Power Absorption: Nick can absorb the power of other beings by drinking their blood.
Presence Shielding: Nick can hide what he is to the extent that he appears human from others. This power works on Chthonians, demons, gods and psychics.
Realm Traveling: Nick can punch a hole between dimensions. He did this to travel from Agonia to his apartment.
Shapeshifting: The Malachai can theoretically assume any form that he wants. Adarian was able to pose as a 13-year-old schoolboy and later a middle-aged convict despite being thousands of years old.
Silkspeech: Nick can manipulate others using this power. It works by targeting aspects sensitive to others, such as when Zarelda used it on Nick by preying on his low self-esteem.
Spell Casting: Nick was capable of exchanging Devus’s soul with the girl Devus killed to make a deal with his master. He was also capable of summoning Menyara from a hell-dimension.
Super Strength: Malachai demons are incredibly strong, capable of overpowering gods, even the primary ones, with ease. Adarian used to tear lesser demons to shreds with his bare hands.
Supernatural Awareness: Nick can sense the presence of other supernaturals with ease, such as when he sensed Kaziel (something neither Caleb nor Xev was capable of doing).
Telekinesis: Nick can move things with his mind. His control of this ability, as of Invision, is weak at best.
Teleportation: Nick can instantly travel to any location.
Temporal Awareness: Nick can sense when someone is altering time. He can also see any changes made to the timeline, seeing as he remembers both the altered and the unaltered timelines.
Sephiroth Abilities:
Burning Light: Whilst trapped in Azmodea without his Malachai powers, he destroyed a portion of Noir’s forces by becoming engulfed in light. Since Malachais are creatures of darkness, it can be assumed that this stems from his Sephiroth heritage.
Healing: Malachais are incapable of healing, so it can be assumed that Nick’s ability to heal Little Simi stems from his Sephiroth heritage.
Other Abilities
Courage: Nick is capable of overcoming his fears and stand up to beings like Acheron, Noir and Thorn.
Indomitable Will: Nick is capable of maintaining silence under torture (as seen in Illusion when Alternate Acheron made him fight in gladiatorial-like matches against an Aamon).
Intelligence: Nick’s intelligence has been commented upon by numerous characters throughout the series. He got perfect scores on the admittance test to St. Richard’s, which is a very prestigious school.
——END FOR NOW——
If you didn’t take the time to read all that, I understand. BUT DO YOU GET IT NOW?
Notice the words SEPHIROTH POWERS above. That’s right. He’s not just a demon. He’s not just annoying and stubborn. HE’S ALL OF THE ABOVE.
Not so unreasonable for “no reason” anymore, huh? If you still think he’s an A-hole, I get it still. He really REALLY can be. But he can also, and should be according to history, be a billion times worse.
More to come later, but this post is hellaciously long enough.

Purdue basketball gets heroics from Trevion Williams and Jaden Ivey to force overtime
Home-state advantage didn't ultimately pay off for Purdue. No. 13 seed North Texas pulled off a bracket-busting upset over the No. 4-seeded Boilermakers 78-69 in overtime on Friday in the men's NCAA Tournament first round. It's North Texas' first-ever NCAA tourney win and the second huge upset of a Big Ten power. Earlier Friday, No. 15 seed Oral Roberts knocked off No. 2 Ohio State to become the first Cinderella of March Madness. SAGAME1688 SEXYGAME66The Mean Green (18-9) came out firing early and controlled the tempo all game, fueling off a stifling defense to send home one of the Big Ten's most surging teams in Indianapolis – about an hour away from its West Lafayette campus. Purdue's Mackey Arena is also hosting tournament games.Thomas Bell (16 points) came up huge for North Texas as the game's star on both offense and defense, scoring key buckets and delivering momentous blocks in overtime and at the end of regulation. SAGAME66 Thomas Bell of the North Texas Mean Green attempts a layup past Trevion Williams of the Purdue Boilermakers.North Texas also got 24 points, 12 rebounds and five assists from leading scorer Javion Hamlet, while Mardez McBride contributed 16.Purdue had its chances, but was outplayed in overtime and missed three meaningful free-throws in the closing stretch of regulation. SEXYGAME1688MARCH MADNESS:Winners and losers from Friday's first roundLIVE UPDATES:Scores, moments and analysis you need from FridayORAL ROBERTS:How far can Cinderella and Ohio State slayer go in tournament?The Boilermakers (18-10) kept it close late in the game, tying the game at 61 with 17 seconds left to ultimately force OT off a Trevion Williams put-back. Purdue previously tied the game at 57 off a Jaden Ivey acrobatic lay-in. They had sliced the deficit to 57-55 off a Williams hammering slam dunk with 3:48 remaining. Ivey, a freshman guard, paced Purdue with 26 points in the loss. North Texas, winner of Conference USA, entered the game with a defense that ranks 10th nationally with 61.2 points allowed to opponents. The Mean Green limited Purdue to 67 points and 9-for-30 shooting from three-point range.  Follow college basketball reporter Scott Gleeson on Twitter u/ScottMGleeson.

North Lenoir falls to South Granville in first round

CREEDMOOR — One of the greatest seasons in North Lenoir history came to an end Friday.
The Hawks had an early 12-point lead, but fell to the South Granville Vikings 26-18 Friday in the first round of the NCHSAA 2AA playoffs. South Granville (9-3) improved its win streak to eight and moves on to host Currituck County Nov. 22 in the second round after a serious challenge from North Lenoir (8-4).
"We've been in a lot of close games this season, and while it's not something we want to do, we're comfortable coming from behind," Vikings coach Mike Hobgood said. 
North Lenoir forced South Granville to prove its ability immediately, as Justin Cobb took the opening kickoff 87 yards for a touchdown. Then, after the team's exchanged fumbles, Ny'Jai Koonce recorded an interception to halt the Vikings' drive. The Hawks went 95 yards in 11 plays, finishing with Filipo Sualevai throwing a 17-yard touchdown to Koonce for the 12-0 lead after one.
South Granville responded with an 11-play, 81-yard drive on its next possession, punctuated by Micah Wilkerson's 4-yard touchdown run. North Lenoir maintained its 12-6 lead into the break, but Wilkerson took the second-half kickoff 97 yards to give the Vikings a 13-12 lead.
"We faced a lot of adversity in the first half, but we knew how to come back," Wilkerson said. "We had to get right and that kickoff return was definitely a gamechanger."
The teams traded possessions and Jaden Kilpatrick ran up the middle for a 46-yard touchdown to put North Lenoir ahead 18-13. Ethen Josselin responded with a 35-yard score late in the third and the Vikings defense forced an interception with 6:40 remaining to end the Hawks' next drive. North Lenoir forced a three-and-out, but turned it over on downs with 2:32 to play.
The Hawks had one last chance, but Dominic Deloatch intercepted a last-second throw and scored to close the game emphatically.
North Lenoir coach Jim Collins said it was a tough end to 2019, but the team made great strides, tying a school-record in victories after finishing 0-10 one year ago.
"This wasn't how we wanted to end the season, but I'm thankful for the effort the guys gave," Collins said. "They gave everything they could out here and our seniors did a fantastic job."

Ramblings: Atkinson Scratched, Marner Breaks Point Slump (Dec 10)
Atkinson Scratched, Marner Breaks Point Slump, plus much more…
Let’s start with the early game. The good news for Jaden Schwartz owners: he scored a goal in the first period of Saturday’s matinee game. The bad news: he was forced to leave the game later in the period after blocking a shot with his ankle. Fortunately x-rays came back negative (which is a good thing despite the term “negative”), so consider Schwartz day-to-day for now.  
Jimmy Howard was pulled after two periods after allowing four goals on ten shots to the Blues. You probably want to use Howard at your own risk, as he is 1-4-3 with a 4.64 goals-against average and .836 save percentage in his past nine games. As well, we might start to see Petr Mrazek factor into the Wings’ goaltending situation more than he has. Howard has played over twice as many games (24) as Mrazek has (10) this season.
*
Tyler Bozak entered Saturday’s game with just four goals in 28 games. But he finished the game with his first three-point game of the season, scoring two goals and adding an assist. If you are kicking yourself for not starting Bozak in a daily format, keep in mind that he had not scored a goal in 13 games.
Talk about an instant buy-low opportunity for me. I picked up Mitch Marner off waivers in one of my leagues, and he rewarded me with three assists. Considering that this is my shallowest league, I can kind of see why he was dropped, as he has scored just two goals all season and no points in his last seven games. Of course, before adding him I looked at the shots on goal total (56) along with the goals. As best as I could do math in my head, I determined that his shooting percentage was below 5 percent (3.4 percent now that I’ve had a chance to look it up). So that has nowhere to go but up. He’s 84 percent owned in Yahoo leagues as I write this.
Auston Matthews was clutching his head after taking a hit during the third period. I’m shocked that the Toronto sports media provided little speculation about his condition after the game, considering that the Leafs play again on Sunday.
Do any of you who follow the Leafs closely know why William Nylander played only 8:39 in this game? I was mainly channel surfing during the early games. Three games at the same time on HNIC.
Tristan Jarry was pulled at the end of the first period after allowing three goals on 16 shots. Maybe he couldn’t make the big save, but the Penguins’ issues of less-than-stellar 5-on-5 play seems to be surfacing. Jarry has seen action in seven consecutive games, so as much as you’ll want to start him whenever possible, remember that this is a lot happening very quickly for a 22-year-old goalie who expected to spend the season in the AHL.
*
Moving Tyler Johnson up to a line with Steven Stamkos and Vladislav Namestnikov has helped revive his fantasy stock, although Johnson was moved again on Saturday to a line with Ondrej Palat and Brayden Point. TJ recorded another two assists to extend his point streak to four and give him points in six of his last seven games, although the assist was on the power play on Yanni Gourde’s goal. By the way, Gourde has a four-game point streak of his own.
Full disclosure: Perhaps my worst keeper decision was choosing Johnson over Nikita Kucherov when the two were in a virtual dead heat in fantasy value (after the 2014-15 season). But I doubt anyone at the time knew he would be top-of-the-scoring-race good. If you did, maybe you should be giving me fantasy hockey advice.
I was disappointed that the Jets/Lightning overtime lasted only 36 seconds, since 3-on-3 OT was made for those two teams. But that doesn’t take away from the winning goal by Brayden Point, who finished with two points in this game.  
Brayden Point + 3-on-3 + Bob Cole = @SUBWAYCanada OT magic. pic.twitter.com/fPluM90jvA
— Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) December 10, 2017
Dustin Byfuglien left this game in the third period with a lower-body injury. The Jets’ next game is at home on Monday, which makes for a difficult decision if you need to set your weekly roster by Sunday night.
On the Hot Stove, Nick Kypreos mentioned Michael Hutchinson as a possibility for teams that need a goalie right now (Edmonton, Florida). Hutchinson has a 9-1-0 record with a 1.73 GAA for the Manitoba Moose of the AHL this season. If you play in one of those super deep leagues where most backups, let alone starters, are on someone’s roster, Hutch might be a goalie to secure.
*
Historically, Carey Price has been money on Saturday night, but he was pulled early in the second period after allowing four goals on 14 shots. As subpar as the season stats might be, his numbers since returning from injury are 5-2-1 with a 2.30 GAA and .928 SV%. Timing is everything, so you might still be able to buy low after the awful start.
Jujhar Khaira led the Oilers’ charge with two goals. He has quietly produced for the Oilers (five goals and nine points in 16 games). But he’s probably not at the point where you should be adding him, as his shooting accuracy is cruising at a very high 20 percent. The fact that he receives virtually no power-play time isn’t going to help his cause either.
*
Sergei Bobrovsky stopped all 35 shots he faced in the Blue Jackets’ 1-0 shutout win over Arizona. Bob now leads the NHL with four shutouts.
Antti Raanta was the hard-luck loser, stopping 33 of 34 shots he faced.
It’s John Tortorella message-sending time. You may have heard that Dobber’s baby Cam Atkinson was a healthy scratch for this game. Atkinson was benched for the third period of Friday’s game and played just 9:36 total. What has Atkinson done to deserve this treatment? How about no points in his last six games and just nine points in 25 games.    
Honestly think Torts should have scratched him a month ago. For once, Torts was actually patient with a guy. Let's hope it gets Cam going https://t.co/KqQjVViAuN

Either that or it’s somehow the beginning of the end for Atkinson in Columbus. In Torts’ world, everything is black and white. Atkinson will be back for the next game, but this is no way means that Torts has or will regain faith in Atkinson. I’m just thinking back to the Ryan Johansen situation. Also remember that this was a coach who benched Roberto Luongo for the Heritage Classic because Eddie Lack was the hotter goalie, which turned out to be the end for Luongo in Vancouver.
I’m not saying that the Atkinson situation will play out this way, but I wouldn’t be totally surprised if it did either. But let’s assume that what I just said in the last paragraph is hyperbole for now.
Is Atkinson a great buy low? His shooting percentage is down (6.54 5on5 SH%, down from the last two seasons), and he’s missed a bit of time because of injury, so the season hasn’t really gotten off the ground. He’s shooting at roughly the same number of shots per game (3 SOG/GP), so better luck combined with the motivation to prove Torts wrong could result in much stronger second-half splits. So I’d say yes, it’s worth a shot. At the right price, of course.

With two assists, David Pastrnak extended his point streak to eight games. During that stretch he has four goals and ten points and a plus-7.
Brad Marchand received a five-minute major for a hit to the head of John Tavares. Normally we’d assume the five-minute major would be enough. But this is Marchand we’re talking about, so there could be supplemental discipline.

Mats Zuccarello scored two goals for the Rangers in their 5-2 win over the Devils. He also saved another one from going in.

In the Avalanche’s 7-3 win over Florida, you were probably hoping Nathan MacKinnon, Gabriel Landeskog, or Mikko Rantanen would have piled up the points. Instead, it was Matt Nieto who led the team in scoring with a goal and two assists. Nieto is the definition of a streaky scorer. He had not scored a goal since October 24, when he recorded a hat trick. Needless to say, fantasy owners can’t be that patient.

Matthew Tkachuk had gone 11 games without a goal and was coming off a recent one-game suspension, so he’s been receiving his fair share of criticism. So he responded well on Saturday, scoring the game-tying goal and an empty-net goal in the Flames’ 4-2 win over Vancouver. Tkachuk is known more for his chippy play than anything, but his goal/assist ratio suggests he is much more of a passer than a shooter. In just over 100 games, Tkachuk has 19 career goals compared to 48 assists.  
With no Bo Horvat, Markus Granlund was taking faceoffs on the Canucks’ first-unit power play on Saturday. Before your jaw drops to the floor, Brandon Sutter played a similar role last season. So this is nothing new.
Sven Baertschi left this game after taking a puck to the face, adding to the Canucks’ injury woes.

Aaron Dell stopped all 25 shots he faced in the Sharks’ 5-0 win over Ottawa. Dell remains one of the league’s top backups with a sub-2.00 goals-against average. He’s worth streaming for sure and is even worth a roster spot in very deep leagues.
Logan Couture scored a goal and added two assists in the win. He has nine goals in ten Saturday games, but six goals spread out through the rest of the week this season. If you play daily leagues for some weekend fun on a busy Saturday, Couture wouldn’t be a bad player to target. Otherwise, that’s a fairly useless stat.
I’m at the point where I’m now starting Jaroslav Halak over Craig Anderson on one of my teams. But Anderson can’t be totally held to blame in the Sens’ loss, as he faced 50 shots in total. But being an Anderson owner is testing your patience (didn’t someone writing for this site say the same about Matt Duchene not too long ago?) Anderson has not earned a win since November 11, which makes it nine appearances without a win.
But the light at the end of the tunnel might be Tuesday’s game against Buffalo. That’s what we have to call one of those “something’s gotta give” games. Unless, of course, Mike Condon is named the starter for that game. The Sens play another game on Wednesday against the Rangers.
