"There’s a rather destructive tendency to view art as a window through which we merely gaze at its creator. It’s more than that. In the gleam of sunlight on a window, we see our own reflection; in the same way, when we stare deeply at a piece of art, we see certain truths reflected back at us."
maybe it's a tenuous connection but: whenever I think about how I love the designs of the "bad future" Matsus despite the unfortunate implications of fat versions of them being presented as such, this article always pops into my head
having a piece of media that you know on an intellectual level is problematic positively resonate with you is a very surreal experience, but not an uncommon one - I was relieved when this article taught me that, and I empathize with the author on several levels

You were doing it again. Prodding at the dips of your stretch marks morosely. And quite frankly it was pissing him off. He knew that look from ten miles away. He knew what your deep sigh meant, and he'd be damned if you do it again. Having enough of glaring daggers your way because you stubbornly kept your current mindset-one insecurity after the other-he resorted to picking you up, princess style.
"Kats!" you gasp, your rambling about how heavy you were going in one ear and out the other as he carried you straight to the bedroom with one thing on his mind; dealing with your insecurities the best way he knows how, by fucking them out of you.
"I'm a Pro, sweetheart. Carrying ten of ya is an everyday thing for me, so nice try, dumbass." he throws you onto the comforters, making you squeal in surprise.
You huff and squint at him as you sit upright, glaring your cute little glare as he readies the mirror. "What are you doing?" you finally ask, offended he brought you into its reflection to the point of near tears. "I'm huge," you start as he makes the strides towards you, "I'm ugly, I don't wanna see m'smff--" cutting you off by firmly planting his palm under your chin and squishing your pretty cheeks. Your pretty hues go wide, your pupils dilating at his stern look, a flush painting your features.
You were gonna get punished.
"We'll see how long you keep this up. Stop being a fuckin' brat." he gives you a meaningful squeeze before releasing you. "Now strip." he commands, and you shake your head before opening your mouth to speak.
"Strip, or that's another one to the dumpster." he seethes, eyeing what you wore as he settled beside you. You wisely clamp your mouth shut, immediately springing into action, knowing his habit of ripping your favorite clothes to shreds. While the money he makes can fill your closet with new ones, you preferred the ones you've worn down.  "Not so hard, now, is it, sweetheart?" he rasps warmly, a stark contrast to his earlier demeanor. "Now, c'mere." he coos, beckoning you over when you've removed the last article of clothing, and you disobediently stay where you are. "Don't make Daddy say it twice, toots." he warns you, making your breath hitch as you squirm in place.
Katsuki is a patient man for his spouse. After several moments you eventually begin to cave, and you inch towards him. He pats his lap, watching you fiddle with your fingers apprehensively. "What did I say?" a growl escapes him, and you begin to stutter, your beautiful face much more lurid in hue; of embarrassment, shame, and arousal.
"Y-Yes, Daddy..." a meek affirmation escapes you as you turn around and hesitantly take your seat, gasping as he all but grabs them plump, pretty hips, and pulls them down onto his lap.
He purrs in satisfaction, his large hands engulfing your plush thighs. "There we go. Atta sweetheart." he praises, groping and massaging them. "I wouldn't've married ya if I didn't like everything you had to offer." he starts. "You know me, sweetheart, yeah?" giving them a particularly firm squeeze. "Yeah?" he repeats firmly when you hesitate, his voice making you nod.
"The juicier, the better." he says, pressing them together. "Press these babies t'gether after a li'l TLC, makes a mighty fine cocksleeve. Nice and slippery, drives me up the wall every damn time, never fuckin' fails." he rasps in your ear, making you squirm. "And here?" he lifts one of his hands to grope your stomach, making you jolt. "Here, I stake my fuckin' claim." "Kats--" "Would prefer t'do it inside, turn you into my pretty li'l cumdump, keep you stuffed full of my kids." he interrupts you, thumbing up your inner thigh, stopping just short of your sex.
He revels in your whimper, in the flush that grew to the tips of your ears and down your neck, creeping towards your shoulders. "Can turn 'em info earmuffs, too." he squeezes your thigh, the hand on your stomach traveling up to fondle your chest.
"These here are just the cherry on top, sweetheart." he says, flicking one of your nipples, making you gasp. He scoots back, holding onto you to keep you in his lap. "See that mirror? I'll have ya yellin' how pretty you are by the end of this, and that's a fuckin' promise. Daddy doesn't go back on his promises." he tells you as he manhandles you into a more comfortable position with ease, paying special attention to groping at your tummy and thighs-the areas you were most insecure about.
He'd have those thoughts long gone before he's done with you, your pretty little head filled only with him.
He takes your hands, first guiding them to your plump pretty rolls. "Remember what I tell ya?" he asks, as he guides your hands lovingly across your body. Incoherent sounds escape you, and he hums encouragingly. "Little louder, toots." he tells you. You're silent for several moments, shyly speaking up.
"...like cinnamon rolls..." your voice comes out small as you lift your gaze to yours and his reflection in the mirror, cheeks painted the prettiest color. "Mmhm, and?" he rasps coaxingly in your ear.
"Y'could...gobble 'em up..." you go redder as his crimson eyes meet yours in the reflection, your own hues darting downward. "Damn right." he chuckles, giving a playful nibble to your neck, eliciting a soft gasp and shudder from you. "Can't convince me that's not what those bastards are fantasizin' when they stare at'cha a little bit too fuckin' long. Really pisses me off." he growls, "I like watchin' 'em bounce, too. They're for my eyes, only, yeah?" he tells you.
It was true. The hungry gazes you'd get from thirsty passerby was far from being a rarity or occasional, not that you didn't like it though. Your guard dog of a husband's protectiveness always did set a fire in your belly.
"And these?" he inquires, his large hands moving to your thighs, guiding them apart-but you stubbornly keep quiet. He bends, chuckling darkly. "Take your time, baby." he tells you, mouthing at your neck, his crimson hues dark and knowing. You try to avert your gaze, but one of his big calloused hands grips your chin, making you look back at the reflection, his other toying with your pulsing sex.
You wouldn't be able to keep it up much longer.
"Earmuffs..." you mumble shyly, trying to remember through the haze. "Th'juicier--th'better--" you gasp, unable to keep from squirming anymore as his finger teases your entrance. "Mhmm, and?" he encourages you, his voice husky in your ear.
"Ahh--oohh, Daddy, m'sorry--" you barely contain your moans, wriggling your hips a little, wanting nothing more than those thick fingers to fill you up.
“Don't be.” he tells you, his voice clear through the pulsing heat, “Don't be, baby.” he soothes. “From the crown of your head, down to your pretty little toes. Every fuckin’ inch, gorgeous.” he tells you, inserting one finger.
“Ya like t’keep spoutin’ nonsense, about perfection, about who's deservin’ of what.” in goes another as he continues-really, he’s too perfect for you-curling his fingers only just a tad, not quite enough to quell the fire.
“This whole damn planet don't deserve you.” he moves his hand, fingers pulling out in a slow drag, curled up against your spongy spots, “You know damn well y'can't convince me otherwise, sweets.” he whispers in your ear. You moan at the sudden onslaught; large calloused fingers pumping in and out of your heat at a dizzying pace, his palm rubbing against your sex deliciously.
You find rhythm with him, bringing your hips up for more, wantonly humping his hand. It's not long before your husband's skillful fingers are coated with your slick, and your teetering on the brink of orgasm.
He knew exactly how to drive you crazy. His voice in your ear, the strong grip he had on your chin. His skillful fingers bringing you up, and up, and up-only to suddenly stop.
You whine and squirm, reaching down to get that high, only for your hands to be swat away, his large palm covering your pulsing heat. "What'd I say, baby?" he pants in your ear, voice husky. He was clearly enjoying this. You could feel his hard cock straining against his sweatpants, pressing up against the meat of your ass.
And if you were going to be honest, you were enjoying this, too.
"Daaaddddyyy~" you whine, high pitched and desperate, closing your legs. "Nuh-uh." he grunts, pulling one of your legs in the hook of his elbow. "What'd I say, toots?" he asks again.
"I'm big, an' ug-ghoooh!~" you try, with a hint of squirmy sass, quickly cut off by his fingers plunging into your needy heat again. "Nope. Wrong answer." he growls.
You keen his name, legs trembling as he ravages your spongy bits, knuckle deep. He slows to a drag just as you're about to reach your high. "Last time, what'd I say...?" he rasps in your ear. You squirm and hump his hand as best you can, face hot and head fogging over, frustrated tears starting to prick your eyes.
Adamantly, you try to shake your head with him holding your chin, squeezing your eyes shut so you wouldn't have to look at yourself in the mirror anymore.
Because he's convinced you, like all other times. You're perfect. At this point, you were only being stubborn, but you refused to admit it easily.
The moment his fingers leave your heat, though; all that crumbles. "Nooo!~" you release a high pitched whine. It crashes and burns, your sweet, sweet release seeming even further away.
" 'm pretty! 'm hot! 'm sexy, I--" your voice cuts off as he eases his thick fingers back in, where you needed them most. "What else, toots?" he asks, voice husky. "Got sexy curves!~ Thick n' warm n' jiggly!~ Oohh, yes, Daddy please, right there!~" you keen as his skillful fingers pick up the pace, scissoring you open. "Keep going." he commands you.
" 'm thighs!~ Stretchmarks, too, they--they look, oh fuck, Daddy, Daddy, 'm coming!~" you squirt all over his palm, shaking your hips against his hand as best you could, riding your high.
You go completely limp against him, panting harshly. Slowly, sensually, you feel that same hand travel around the curve of your ass and up your thigh.
When you feel him reach behind you, between your bodies, and pull down his sweats, you can't help the pleasant shudder that escapes you.
"Daddy, 'm legs're jelly, I can't--" you try weakly, but he shushes you. "There's positions for that, sweetheart." he pants softly in your ear as he manhandles you into position to take his throbbing, red-hot cock.
Your toes curl in delight at the stretch, his cock all but filling you up. He pulls you into a full nelson, "Daaadddyyyyyy!~" you squeal in surprise when he stands, impaling you just right, making your hole gush.
"Didn't tell ya t'stop, did I?" his hisses hotly in your ear. "Nhooh~" you moan. "Touch yourself." he commands, and this time, he doesn't have to tell you twice; you snake your hand in front of you and start stroking. "Wanna hear your pretty voice, c'mon." he grunts, his strong arms keeping you fully secure as he proceeds to use you like a pocket pussy.
"Dad~dy~ I'm!~"
You sing hot praise to yourself in the mirror, getting lost in your own little world as your husband bounces you on his fat cock, encouraged by his lewd praises. This goes on until you're fucked stupid-until he's made you cum at least twice all over the mirror.
Only then would he have mercy, cleaning you up and tucking you in.
The next time you'd wake up, he'd already have your favorites prepared. Really, he's such the perfect husband for you. <3

Corpse paint is a style of black and white makeup used mainly by black metal bands for concerts and band photos. The makeup is used to make the musicians appear inhuman, corpse-like, or demonic, and is perhaps "the most identifiable aspect of the black metal aesthetic." ©Wikipedia
It's supposed to be a stuff only for my personal use, but someone is asking about them in my WCIFs, so why not to share it. I'm not sure that this will against original creator TOU, just because they doesn't have any TOU and wasn`t active for years. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Info:
Credits: Dark Rituals, @aroundthesims (face mask texture).
Teen-elder, both genders.
What I've done: cleaned small unwanted pixels, filled empty space in the eyes, made whole texture generally more smooth.
Everything is recolorable now (2 channels for all face paints except Huul, it has 3rd channel for mouth, but it still barely recolorable), Separates have 1 channel.
Eyes separates in eyeshadow category, lips in lipstick and forehead cross are in blush. Separated all swatches except Huul (11) Satinae Ma (18-19) (they just not too interesting and was annoying to separate them :/) and King Diamond (14) (I found this after I extracted and partly edited all other paints and come back to the site for making post for cc finds.)
Known issues: some paints (especially the cross one) may look really wonky depending of the sim's facial features.
1k textures.
Package format, compressed (but file size is still big because of the amount of presets). Separates have merged package and pick and choose version.
Swatches:
Tumblr media
Recommended downloads: Mask/Masque by ats3, Simply Kitsch`s Dark Stain Tattoo (I also made version with additional preset with only neck paint: here), Kat Bodypaint by @venusprincess-ts3 Bonus tip: If you want to use ats3 mask for your black metalhead/goth/alt/geisha/rococo sims makeup, but it overlapping over all eyeshadows/eyeliners, open them in s3pe, choose CASP resource, then press to "Grid" button, replace the numbers on OverlayPriority tab from whatever you have to 0x00000064 or 0x00000082.

A new WarioWare has come out and I got enough playtime in to feel comfortable talking about it in full, so I’ll do just that.
Right off the bat I can say in short: this is a good game and a good WarioWare. Not up there with my favs, but it does a lot right. My experience did end up quite differently than anticipated and I’ll explain why soon enough.
First I want to talk about the presentation, which I think is an easy high point. Everything is vibrant and colorful, the art keeps showing the strengths of the current style and everything feels very much like it should. Microgames run that perfect mix of genuinely nice looking and deliberately cursed and the cutscenes are the best of both worlds, being smooth and lively, while returning to Gold’s full voice acting.
Speaking of cutscenes, that brings us to the story related stuff and that’s where the game shows some interesting tricks up its sleeves. In terms of structure it’s a return to the pre-Gold era, with the closest to an overarching theme being the vacation set-up.
I do think the Ware crew is in top form, likable, fun and full of life as always and two stories in particular even do something major.
Kat and Ana’s story marks the shocking return of Cractus, bringing a Wario Land character into WarioWare and Young Cricket’s story sees his Kung-Fu Ball partner finally brought into WarioWare properly. Both of those are really massive and show a willingness to more heavily utilize elements from other parts of the verse, which I find incredibly exciting.
Oddly enough, the weaker link of the story for me this time is Wario himself. Now don’t get me wrong, everything that happens here is usual Wario antics and I do like how non–english versions of the script like japanese and german, have him be actually be nice about bringing the others along. His confusion at the Crygor drawings and later ascending to godhood, with the cast roll confirming he got a happy end, are all good too, plenty of nice stuff here.
He just feels weirdly absent here. Having no presence in the Remix stages, no bonus mode in his image and even the final stage has him stuck being cursed to have his face be the avatar of an angry volcano. It doesn’t really feel like Wario and ends with him being the only one of the cast with no moment to shine during the climax, which I can’t help but find a little disappointing.
Still, it’s not a big deal, after so many games Wario taking a slight backseat isn’t a dealbreaker, it just stood out a little.
Moving away from that, there is the audio side of things. The music as usual is full of unapologetically catchy jingles and some major stand-out tracks such as MegaGame Muscles and the Form Guide theme.
We got full voice acting again and with it our first taste of Kevin Afghani as Wario. Pre-release stuff had me very on and off with how I felt about it, but having heard all of him in the game: yeah, I like him! He does have some wonky deliveries, but the overall voice still feels like Wario and has its own fun appeal. Certainly more noticeably different than Mario and Luigi, but I am optimistic Kevin will greatly grow into the role, as he gets to play him more and more.
Then we get to the big one, the gameplay and this is where I was thrown for a loop the most. With this being a direct Smooth Moves successor I thought I’d know what to expect, but was quite caught off-guard in many places.
This surprisingly ended up being the most difficult WarioWare for me by a long-shot, enough that I actually had to take advantage of the second chance mechanic, which I never had to do in Gold and GiT.
If I had to sum the game up in one word, it would be demanding, Wario commanding you to move it is not just a funny title, it’s the name of the game.
With the Wiimote, you could get away with just sorta doing the poses in a lot of cases, but Move It really demands you do the exact poses, down to holding the Joycon juuuust the right way. 
More than anything I was surprised how strict it could be in that regard, not following the form instructions is asking for trouble, but I have to say, at the same token I was amazed how well things worked once I got the hang of it.
I’ll admit, I was ill while playing the game, so maybe that caused me to be a little more daft than usual, but it took me a bit to really get into it and I had to consult the museum several times for some microgames to figure out what I even needed to do.
I do think the game is a touch more complicated than usual for WarioWare, since you have to take effectively two controllers and specific poses into account, on top of grasping what each microgame demands of you, but once it clicks everything feels well thought out and purposeful. Getting things down is immensely satisfying and shows some really stunning results of what the Joycon can do.
That said the game isn’t entirely without jank, Hand Model being a notable culprit of it. The game finds several fun applications for it, but anything regarding reading forms or how many fingers you hold up, can be really clunky in the heat of the moment. In general, the strictness of the forms also means you need to really be prepared for every microgame, since slouching with your form could lead to a bad desync
Still, even with some jank I do think stepping up to the challenge to get a feel of it and get better is very much worth it. I wasn’t sure how to feel at first, but my opinion on it only went up the more I played.
That covers it for the main stages, as for the side-content though, yeah, that is where the game shows a weaker side of itself.
Not so much in terms of what’s here though. You got your standard towers, as well as MegaGame Muscles, which no joke, may be my favorite stage in the game. It’s frantic, fun, the music slaps and the set-up of Mr. Sparkles having ascended to being a literal god of fitness, is pure WarioWare.
The new Pyoro game of the day is a fun, different take on it, much like the one in Smooth Moves was as well and Dirty Job is a cool bonus game expansion of a more stand-out microgame concept.
That is really it as far as the single player content is concerned though and it does feel a liiiittle on the meager side. No souvenirs, which Smooth Moves and GiT didn’t have either, but Smooth Moves had more bonus games and GiT had the final Pyoro stage, Penny Remix, more bonus games, unlockable art and the Wario Cup.
We do still have a decent variety of multiplayer modes to work with and I did get a friend to come on by to try them, save for the 4 player exclusive one.
I think it’s a good selection, in concept it has the best multiplayer mode offerings since Mega Party Games (though I did like GiT a lot too), but there is one issue I have with it and I think GiT was a little guilty of it too.
As I mentioned, I do think there is a learning curve on how to play this game most effectively and you feel that even more in multiplayer, where someone not as in the know, is naturally gonna accidentally grip his Joycon slightly wrong, despite doing the pose and need some extra instructions, much like the characters in GiT can take some learning.
It is something you can overcome and have a good time with, WarioWare is a very good ‘’don’t take me too seriously’’ kind of multiplayer experience, but on the whole, if they want a true party game WarioWare, I still think something simpler like Mega Party Games is in order and by all means, I wouldn’t mind them doing something like that again.
On a side note, I also find it a bit of a shame that the nice new models for the cast, updated to resemble their designs in this game, are ultimately watered down to sprites of their heads during multiplayer gameplay. With how much emphasis is being put on multiplayer to carry the game for longer, I think it would have been nice if they put in the work to fully animate GiT-style models for the multiplayer modes.
That small gripe aside, as I said, I think multiplayer is fine, but not quite the pick up and play experience for people new to the game, as I feel they wanted it to be and I do think a bit too much of the game is locked behind multiplayer.
But yeah, that’s WarioWare Move It. It’s good and if you like WarioWare, you’re getting what you wanted out of it. It’s not one of my top games in the series and feels a bit too lacking on the side content front, but on the whole, I had a good time and it gets a surprising amount out of a controller that I have an openly low opinion on.

LITG S5 — Volume II E03 Script
If there are any glaring mistakes please let me know*
!Spoilers Ahead!
*I know the Dana & Kat changing scene is wonky but it wasn't worth the effort to make it flow well for a scene that's only there to encourage you to spend gems on outfits.
Ex in the Rear View
Something stands in the way of a budding new romance.
——————————————————————————————
NARRATOR: Something is brewing. Is it coffee? Is it one of Finn’s craft IPAs? Nope, it’s drama with a capital D.
NARRATOR: Kat’s storming towards [MC]. This can only mean one thing!
NARRATOR: A handshake and a mutual appreciation of opposing opinions.
You and Alfie are on the bean bags as Kat storms across the garden towards you!
KAT: I need a chat with you, now!
You try to leave, to give Alfie and Kat their space.
KAT: With both of you!
You freeze.
ALFIE: You don't need to get [MC] involved.
KAT: From my view, she looked VERY involved with you, babe.
MC: Oh so you're spying on me now?
KAT: The whole villa just saw you two.
ALFIE: It wasn't a big deal. It was just some cheeky flirting.
KAT: Wise up, hun. She's after you.
MC: Excuse me?!
KAT: Cracking on with someone else's guy?
KAT: Whatever happened to girl-code?
CHOICE
①. I’ll flirt with who I want
②. Sorry, you're right
③. I can flash some claws of my own, Kat
①.
MC: If I want to flirt with Alfie, I will.
You seductively place your hand on Alfie’s arm
MC: Alfie doesn’t seem to mind.
MC: Do you, Alife?
KAT: You’re messing with his head.
MC: Chill, Kat. Maybe it’s just flirting.
②.
MC: You're right. I'm sorry.
MC: You and Alfie are in a couple, and I should have respected that.
MC: I get that what we did could have seemed over the line from your point of view.
③. 
MC: If you want to go there, Kat, I’ll go there.
MC: And you don't give a crap about girl-code.
MC: You're acting all aggy about me having a chat with Alfie.
MC: But everyone knows you'd bin him, as soon as, for a bit of Finn.
KAT: You're a sneak!
MC: Are you serious?
MC: In the couples quiz, you said we all need to get to know each other!
{If kissed Alfie E02}
KAT: That doesn't mean kissing him for everyone to see!
{If smiled at Alfie E02}
KAT: That doesn't mean flirting with him for everyone to see!
{If hugged Alfie E02}
KAT: That doesn't mean hugging him for everyone to see!
Alfie slides between you and Kat.
ALFIE: It's calm, it's calm.
ALFIE: Kat, I owe you an explanation. Can we have a chat?
KAT: To be continued then.
ALFIE: Come on, Kat. Let's have a private chat. We'll sort this between us.
Kat reluctantly allows Alfie to escort her to the swing. You exhale. Dana hurries over to you.
DANA: Oh my days of the week! That chat was A LOT.
DANA: Do you think Kat will let it go now she's said her piece?
CHOICE
①. Yeah, it’ll be chill
②. I’m worried she won’t
③. No, but bring it on
①.
MC: I think it’ll blow over.
MC: She’s let it out. I bet she calms down now.
②.
MC: I doubt she’ll drop it, but I wish she would!
MC: Not everyone wants a lot of drama.
③.
MC: No way is she over this. But, bring it on, Kat!
MC: If she’s out to cause drama, I won’t back down.
DANA: She was the one out of line.
{If flirt who I want}
MC: Exactly! I’m entitled to flirt.
{If said sorry}
MC: Even so, I apologised. That’s all I can do.
{If flash claws}
MC: Exactly! And I don’t put up with that.
You see Kat glaring at you from across the garden.
——————————————————————————————
The afternoon sun is hot and heavy. You're on the day beds with Eddie and Finn.
EDDIE: That confrontation with you and Kat was intense!
FINN: Kat was breathing fire, so she was.
He flaps his arms and cries like a dragon. You laugh.
FINN: Day one and the drama is here!
EDDIE: [MC], how are you feeling after that?
CHOICE
①. Whatever. I'm not rattled
②. I feel bad. I hate drama
③. I'm feeling good. No regrets
①.
MC: I’m not bothered.
MC: Kat's all bark, no bite.
MC: She can say what she wants. I’m not gonna let it bother me.
②.
MC: Ugh. I feel kinda bad.
FINN: Why? Kat was the one kicking off.
MC: Yeah, but I hate drama.
MC: I hope this blows over fast.
③.
MC: I’m great! I know I did nothing wrong.
MC: It’s not against the rules to flirt in the villa.
MC: So what if Alfie and I were flirting in front of everyone?
MC: Would she rather we did it behind her back?
FINN: You're a little drama-magnet, aren't you?
MC: Hey! Maybe I think it's healthy to be open and upfront.
MC: If someone has a problem with me, I want to know.
MC: Hey! Maybe I think it's healthy to be open and upfront.
MC: If someone has a problem with me, I want to know.
Finn chuckles.
FINN: No way Kat's gonna let this go.
FINN: I can hear the fireworks already.
He cups his ear and pretends to listen.
EDDIE: Don't stoke the flames, bro.
FINN: Talking of stoking flames…
{If don't remember date E02}
FINN: [MC], you said in the quiz you didn't remember that hot air balloon Suresh took you on.
FINN: Loved seeing you winding him up.
MC: Are you stirring the pot, Finn?
Finn holds up his hands, innocently. But he's smiling.
MC: I see you smiling, Finn.
FINN: A bit of drama keeps life interesting.
{If love adventure dates E02}
FINN: I think you get it, [MC]. You said in the quiz, you're into adventurous dates.
MC: Dates, yeah. Don't know if that always applies to life in general.
EDDIE: There's a difference between adventure and drama.
EDDIE: Gotta keep it chill, keep it calm.
{If prefer chilled dates E02}
EDDIE: [MC], you said in the quiz that you like chilled dates.
EDDIE: Chill is my goal in dates and life.
FINN: Eddie, I can't picture you having a barney.
EDDIE: That's because you've never seen me after losing a rugby match.
They laugh.
MC: Boys and sport.
You roll your eyes.
FINN: Don't hate on sport.
FINN: Sport is one of the ways we let out our feelings.
He and Finn tackle each other in a bear hug.
You laugh. Finn pulls you into the bear hug and the three of you roll on the day bed, laughing loudly.
This draws the watchful eyes of Suresh. You notice him hanging about by the pool, pretending to not be looking in your direction.
FINN: Hey, [MC]!
Your attention is drawn back to Finn and Eddie. Finn stands on the day bed, flexing in ridiculous poses.
Eddie bench-presses pillows. He pretends to strain under their ‘weight'.
EDDIE: This doing it for you, [MC]?
You laugh, entertained by the boys' shenanigans.
FINN: Fancy a private chat with one of us manly specimens?
{If get to know the boys E02}
MC: Finn, we had a private chat on the terrace earlier.
FINN: But there’s so much more Finn to get to know.
{If turn the guys down E02}
FINN: You turned down my offer of a private chat earlier.
FINN: Don’t tell me you’re gonna pie me off again?
FINN: I promise Eddie won't cry when you pick me.
Eddie playfully jabs Finn in the ribs.
EDDIE: As if she'd pick a cocky bro like you.
You laugh but it’s interrupted by Kat calling across the garden from the kitchen.
KAT: Finn? Can you help me move this chair? I need your muscles.
Kat shoots you a mischievous look as Finn stands up.
FINN: I must go where I’m needed.
FINN: Lucky break for you, Eddie boy.
Finn grins and swaggers off to the kitchen to help Kat. You and Eddie are left on the day beds.
EDDIE: The mosquitos are out. I’ve got this great lemongrass oil that you rub on your skin to keep them away.
EDDIE: Shall we go upstairs and get it? I can help you rub it in.
CHOICE
①. Yes, please!
②. Nah, I’m good as is
①.
MC: I’d love that, thanks.
MC: You can do my back for me.
EDDIE: My pleasure.
EDDIE: Lead the way.
②.
MC: I’m happy chilling here and I already put some oil on… But we can chat here.
EDDIE: Wouldn’t you rather get to know each other somewhere we can talk a little more freely?
EDDIE: Away from ol' Hungry Eyes?
He points at Suresh over at the pool. Suresh is still pretending - badly - not to be watching you.
EDDIE: We haven’t had a proper chance to get to know each other yet.
EDDIE: You sure you don’t want to move someplace more private?
CHOICE
❶. You’re right. Let’s go!
❷. Nah, let’s go to the swing seat instead
❶.
MC: To upstairs!
EDDIE: After you.
He gestures for you to lead the way towards the villa.
❷.
MC: I don’t want to go all the way upstairs, but let's move to the swing seat.
MC: We’ll be able to talk more openly there, but it won’t look like we’re sneaking off to do anything too naughty.
MC: Maybe there’s been enough drama already.
Just then, you see Suresh approach Alfie and take him off for a private chat. You wonder what Suresh is up to.
{if chat with Eddie privately}—————————————————
You and Eddie recline next to each other on one of the beds.
MC: How are you finding villa life?
EDDIE: This might be my fave bit so far.
He slowly rubs lemongrass oil on the top of your back.
MC: Of the villa or of my back?
EDDIE: Both.
EDDIE: Thanks for having this chat with me.
MC: Of course. I want to get to know you better.
EDDIE: I’m an open book. Read me!
MC: OK, then. Tell me, in relationships, are you a player or a stayer?
EDDIE: Stayer, a million percent. I was with my last girlfriend for 3 years.
MC: And you never cheated?
EDDIE: I've never, ever cheated! That's not who I am.
MC: A good guy, huh?
EDDIE: I try to be. I love animals. I'm close with my family.
MC: So you're saying you're a catch?
EDDIE: Hopefully you think I’m boyfriend material?
CHOICE
①. You’re a dreamboat
②. Not in my opinion
③. I'm not sure yet
①.
MC: Sounds like you're a dream guy.
EDDIE: Are you saying I'm YOUR dream guy?
MC: Maybe. Although it’s still early days.
EDDIE: True, but you’re seeming pretty dreamy yourself so far.
②.
MC: Maybe I look for something else in a boyfriend?
Eddie pretends to have been stabbed in the heart.
EDDIE: No! You're ruining me.
MC: You'll get over it.
③.
MC: I can't tell yet.
MC: Like you say, this is only our first proper chat.
EDDIE: You'll just have to get to know me more then, won't you?
EDDIE: Whatever I am, at least I'm not like Suresh.
MC: Meaning?
EDDIE: He's a cheater. And he walks around the villa all cocky. Not my vibe.
CHOICE
①. Hey, don't slag off Suresh
②. You’re right about Suresh!
③. Let's change the topic
①.
MC: You don't know Suresh well enough to talk bad about him.
EDDIE: I know I don't trust a cheater.
MC: People are complicated.
EDDIE: Treating people right seems pretty simple to me.
②.
MC: You're so right. Suresh is way too cocky.
MC: He always was.
EDDIE: I can't picture you with someone like him.
③.
MC: Ugh, let's not talk about Suresh.
MC: I can't seem to get away from him in this villa.
EDDIE: Sorry! We defo don't have to talk about him.
MC: Thanks!
EDDIE: Let’s talk about something much more fun: me and you.
MC: You think there’s a potential ‘me and you’?
EDDIE: I have a feeling there could be.
MC: Time to turn the tables. I want to hear what you think of the girls.
EDDIE: You're all stunning, obviously.
EDDIE: You've certainly caught my eye.
CHOICE
①. Flirt back
②. Play it cool
①.
MC: Oh really?
EDDIE: What do you think about that?
MC: I can't imagine nicer eyes to be caught in.
EDDIE: Back at you. I can feel myself melting every time you look at me.
②.
MC: Thought you were cool?
EDDIE: Things heated up when you walked in.
Both of your eyes move to the bottle of lemongrass oil.
CHOICE
①. Offer to rub oil into his back
②. Hold back for now
①.
MC: Want me to return the favour?
EDDIE: If you’re happy to, I’m not complaining.
You spray the oil onto his toned back and gently rub it into his shoulders, feeling his muscles tense and relax as you do.
EDDIE: That feels amazing.
You work your way down his smooth back a little, rubbing in circular motions. You notice how the smell of the oil combines with his own fragrance.
He turns and smiles at you, attraction and affection in his eyes.
②.
You return Eddie’s smile but leave it at that, for now.
MC: You're just saying that as I'm sat here.
EDDIE: I'm not. You really have caught my eye.
MC: Who says I want your eyes – or any of you – on me?
EDDIE: I think you might.
You can't help smiling. Another boy in this villa is after you.
MC: How are you feeling about Dana? I thought I picked up a vibe between you two.
EDDIE: Maybe I was just trying to make you jealous?
MC: That wouldn’t be very nice of you.
MC: I thought you were Mr Nice Guy?
EDDIE: I am! I was just joking.
EDDIE: Luckily, what I lack in jokes, I make up for in honesty.
He gives you a beaming smile with his perfect teeth and gorgeous, sparkling eyes.
{if chat with Eddie on swing}—————————————————
You and Eddie sit on the swing. The other Islanders are in view but out of earshot.
Eddie plucks a flower from a vine on the wall and sticks it behind your ear.
MC: You're loving this, aren't you?
EDDIE: Being here with you? Yes.
MC: I meant being in the villa. You look like you're in your element.
EDDIE: I'm loving villa life. Beautiful place, beautiful girls, not much competition to speak of.
MC: Oh really? So what’s your read on the other boys?
EDDIE: Finn? He's a hunk, but he knows it. Head’s too big.
EDDIE: Alfie's fun… as a mate. He's got bants for days.
EDDIE: And Suresh? He's got a cool spy vibe going. But that's also his problem: too slick, too slippery.
MC: Sounds like you've got everyone figured out.
EDDIE: What? You don't agree?
CHOICE
①. I agree, a million percent
②. You're talking out of your arse
③. A girl never reveals her secrets
④. I guess I agree with some of that
①.
MC: I totally agree.
MC: You might come across as cocky, but you're not wrong about the boys.
EDDIE: Ya see?
He winks.
②.
MC: I think you're way off about the boys.
MC: You're selling them short. There's more to each of them than you think.
EDDIE: Oh really? Interesting.
③.
MC: Wouldn't you like to know?
MC: I'm not letting you in on what I think about the other boys.
EDDIE: Go on. I won't tell them.
MC: My lips are sealed.
④.
MC: I think you’re spot on about some of those things. But off the mark on some stuff too.
EDDIE: Enlighten me, please.
MC: I think I’ll let you figure it out for yourself.
MC: Time to turn the tables. I want to hear what you think of the girls.
EDDIE: You're all stunning, obviously.
EDDIE: You've certainly caught my eye.
CHOICE
①. Flirt back
②. Play it cool
①.
MC: Oh really?
EDDIE: What do you think about that?
MC: I can't imagine nicer eyes to be caught in.
②.
MC: You're just saying that because I'm sat here.
EDDIE: I'm not. You really have caught my eye.
MC: Who says I want your eyes – or any of you – on me?
EDDIE: I think you do.
EDDIE: You’re giving me a lot to think about, [MC].
MC: Like what?
EDDIE: Let’s just say it involves eggs and baskets. And where to put them.
Eddie gives you a playful wink and a chuckle. You can't help smiling. Another boy in the villa is competing for you.
——————————————————————————————
You enter the kitchen to grab a drink. And who's there? Suresh.
MC: Hi.
SURESH: Surprised to see you taking a break from riling me up.
MC: I've barely spoken to you tonight.
SURESH: Exactly. You've been flirting and chatting with all the boys in front of me.
MC: That's what people do in the villa.
SURESH: Except you're doing it to put me off.
SURESH: You're hoping I'll give up on you and move on to another girl.
MC: That's a big assumption.
SURESH: I know your games, babe.
CHOICE
①. I’m not playing games
②. My games are too good for you to spot
③. You don’t know who I am now
①.
MC: How dare you tell me I’m playing games?
MC: If anyone’s playing games, it’s you.
SURESH: That doesn’t sound like me.
②.
MC: Suresh, if I were playing games, you’d never even know.
MC: I’m on another whole level than you.
MC: I could play games around you all day long if I wanted to, and you’d never be the wiser.
SURESH: Now that’d be interesting.
③.
MC: Whoever you thought I was then isn’t who I am now. I’ve changed since our break-up.
SURESH: People don’t change. Not really.
MC: Well, then, I guess you’ll have to wait and see.
SURESH: Games or no games, my head won't be turned, no matter who walks through that door.
SURESH: I'm going to win you back.
{If could want Suresh back E02}
SURESH: I know you said I need to convince you, and I will.
{If don't want Suresh back E02}
SURESH: I know you said you don't want me back, but I'll change your mind.
{If not sure E02}
SURESH: I know you're not sure, but you will be.
SURESH: I’ve changed a lot since you last saw me… I’ll show you.
SURESH: I admit it: In the past, I didn’t treat you as well as you deserved.
SURESH: And I'm not claiming to have turned into an angel now….
SURESH: After all, angels are boring…
SURESH: But I am done cheating.
CHOICE
①. Maybe you’ve learned your lesson
②. I don't buy it, Suresh
①.
MC: I might believe you.
SURESH: Do you?
MC: I’m saying it’s possible you mean it when you say you're not a cheater anymore.
MC: Whether you can follow through is something else.
②.
MC: You can save your breath, ‘cos I'm not buying it.
SURESH: I'm serious.
MC: You can talk the talk, but so far, your actions don’t match what you’re saying.
SURESH: Don’t worry; I'll show you I'm serious.
SURESH: I'll give you some space to get your head sorted. That’s what a good guy would do, right?
MC: Are you saying you’re a good guy now?
Suresh gives you a mysterious smile as he hovers closer to you…
SURESH: Fair. I'll never be good, but that's what turns you on about me.
CHOICE
①. Don’t tell me what I think!
②. I like nice guys
③. Maybe it does
①.
MC: Don’t assume you know my mind! Ugh, that’s so typical of you!
MC: You haven’t changed at all.
You turn to leave.
SURESH: Wait!
SURESH: Hear me out.
②.
MC: What turns me on is a nice boy.
MC: ‘Good’ is what I’m into.
MC: Not that you’d understand that.
SURESH: Actually, I do. I get it now.
③.
MC: Maybe I like the bad boy thing…
MC: Maybe I just don’t like it on YOU anymore?
MC: Or maybe I like a bad boy who’s actually a good guy deep down.
SURESH: Maybe that’s who I am now.
SURESH: I’m different now.
SURESH: Back then, I’d do anything – say anything – to get in your bed.
MC: Now you’ve gotten back into my bed ‘cos we’re a couple. No change there.
SURESH: That’s where you’re wrong.
SURESH: I’m stepping back and giving you the bed.
MC: What?
SURESH: I’ll sleep on the day beds tonight.
MC: Why would you do that?
SURESH: Got to give you a chance to miss me.
SURESH: But seriously. I’ll give you all the space you need. I’m ready to play the long game.
SURESH: Sweet dreams.
He swaggers away with a sexy smirk.
You watch him as he walks out into the garden, sipping gently on his drink.
——————————————————————————————
You and the other girls are in the dressing room, removing the day's make-up. Obvious tension in the air between you and Kat.
MC: Intense day, huh?
KAT: That's one word for it.
DANA: Today was bonkers-tonkers! But I'm having a blast.
DANA: I'm obsessed with those little birdies that keep drinking from the pool!
DANA: Worst case scenario and I don't find love in here? At least I'll have seen some sick wildlife.
DANA: I'll be the girl who leaves the villa with a nightingale!
The mood lightens in the room.
DANA: Girls, what'd you say to a 'no cracking on' pact?
KAT: Babe, cracking on is the whole reason I'm here.
DANA: Just for tonight, I mean.
Kat raises an eyebrow.
DANA: As a way to keep the drama at bay on the first night. Ya know?
KAT: OK, then. I'm all about girl-code.
She shoots you a look.
DANA: You down, [MC]?
CHOICE
①. Yes girl-code! I'm down with the pact
②. Nah, I reserve my right to crack on!
①.
MC: Absolutely.
MC: I'm so down with this pact. Great idea!
MC: The Suresh situation has caused enough drama for one day.
KAT: Let's not forget the Alfie situ, too.
DANA: Yay! Pact!
②.
MC: No cracking on sounds like no fun.
MC: I'm all for girl-code, but this is Love Island, not friend island.
DANA: I just thought maybe after the whole Suresh situ this afternoon, we'd want a drama-free night?
MC: Sometimes you need to step on toes to find love.
MC: Sorry, girls. I vote no on the pact.
DANA: Fair; you do you, girl. But Kat and I are committed to the pact.
DANA: Right, Kat?
KAT: 'No cracking on' doesn't mean no looking.
She smiles mischievously.
KAT: Sharing a bedroom full of hot guys is my kind of paradise.
You and Dana exchange a nervous glance. Kat catches you.
KAT: Don't get moody, babes.
KAT: The pact ain't stopping me from being the hottest girl in the bedroom.
KAT: I've got a banging outfit for tonight.
DANA: Me too. The pact doesn’t mean I’m not going all out to make an impression on the first night.
DANA: Gonna make sure I’m looking and feeling lush!
KAT: Talking a strong game, Dana. Wonder whether {0} will go big or go home?
DANA: I’ve got an idea. Try on this gorgeous bedroom outfit, {0}.
KAT: That's a saucy little outfit.
KAT: Guess you're trying to compete with me.
DANA: Woooooooooo, girl! You look hot!
DANA: I can't get enough.
DANA: So, are you gonna go with that or something else?
CHOICE
①. Yes, I’m wearing this!
②. I’m going to see what else I’ve got
③. Maybe I’ll stick with what I was wearing
① & ②.
You pose confidently in front of the mirror.
MC: I love it.
DANA: You are looking absolutely fire!
KAT: Yep, even I can’t argue with that!
③.
MC: I can just change back…
MC: Is it too blah?
DANA: OK, real talk.
DANA: You know I think you’re hot as heck, but
DANA: You’re selling yourself short in that.
DANA: Plus, the boys might not get your whole… uhrmmm… effortless chic thing.
KAT: Your whole grandma thing, more like.
You study yourself in the mirror. Maybe you do look a little basic.
DANA: If you're not feeling those PJs, change into something else.
CHOICE
❶. You’ve swayed me. I’m going for this fancy outfit!
❷. I’m going to see what else I’ve got
❸. I’m sticking with my original look
❶ & ❷.
DANA: So, you’ve settled on the saucy outfit anyway. Can’t blame you.
KAT: Yeah, you look stunning. I’m not sure I’d have been able to pick anything else.
❸.
MC: I look nice in this.
DANA: You do you, [MC].
KAT: Sometimes it helps to be a little bit more than nice though, babe.
MC: Actually, I do look absolutely stunning in this!
DANA: You sure do.
KAT: I’ve got to give it to you. You look pretty good. Almost as good as me.
DANA: No need to be sour, Kat.
DANA: You look great in that outfit!
KAT: Yeah, it’s a good choice too, you look hot as.
DANA: So, you’re sticking with the basics. Fair enough.
KAT: Well, I guess you’ll be comfortable at least.
Kat and Dana strut out of the dressing room.
You check yourself out in the mirror for a moment before heading towards the bedroom.
As you're stepping out of the dressing room, Alfie catches you.
ALFIE: Can we have a quick chat?
MC: Sure. What's up?
ALFIE: I've been feeling low-key awks about the Kat drama earlier.
MC: Not your fault. Kat is…
ALFIE: She's fiery.
You chuckle.
MC: She’s not shy, that’s for sure.
ALFIE: She knows her mind and doesn't take any crap. I like that.
MC: Oh. Ok.
ALFIE: It's all good.
ALFIE: Listen, I wanted to say I hope that the drama with Kat hasn't jeopardised our friendship.
MC: So we're just friends?
ALFIE: Of course not 'just friends'.
{If kissed Alfie E02}
ALFIE: Who could forget our near-kiss earlier?
MC: Not me. The sparks were flying.
ALFIE: I think I got an electric shock.
{If smiled at Alfie E02}
ALFIE: How could I forget that steamy smile you gave me at the bean bags?
MC: Glad you didn’t forget about it.
ALFIE: A man could never forget getting lost in your beautiful eyes.
{If hugged Alfie E02}
ALFIE: I haven’t forgotten that loooooong hug we had on the bean bags.
MC: Glad I left an impression on you.
{If kissed Alfie's neck while hugging E02}
ALFIE: And don’t think that sexy little neck kiss escaped my notice either.
ALFIE: There's definitely chemistry. Chemistry that could maybe synthesise –
ALFIE: Synthesise? That’s a chemistry word, right? I’m counting it as a pun.
ALFIE: Anyway, we’ve got chemistry that could develop into a romantic connection. I think.
MC: You think? You don't sound too sure.
Alfie shrugs.
ALFIE: Early days, innit? But obviously I'll be sharing a bed with Kat tonight.
ALFIE: But nothing is set in stone yet, ya know?
ALFIE: It's only the first day and I'm not putting all my eggs in any one basket yet.
ALFIE: People in here are still just starting to show their true colours. Like your ex…
MC: I saw he pulled you for a chat earlier.
ALFIE: I like to chat to everyone. See who's who. Social butterfly, innit?
MC: Sure. But it looked like a kinda deep conversation you had with Suresh.
ALFIE: We had a solid chat, yeah.
CHOICE
①. Any goss?
②. Don't trust him
③. I don’t want to pry
①.
MC: Come on, spill the tea
ALFIE: It was just a casual chat.
MC: Why are you so interested in talking to Suresh all of a sudden?
ALFIE: Why is it a problem if I am?
MC: It could be if you're digging for dirt on me.
ALFIE: Whoa, who said anything about digging for dirt?
MC: So you’re saying I didn’t come up?
ALFIE: Well…
②.
MC: You know you can't believe everything Suresh says, right?
ALFIE: Why not?
MC: He's a cheater. Cheaters can't be trusted. Take it from me.
ALFIE: Don't worry. I took anything he said about you with a pinch of salt.
③.
MC: It’s none of my business what you talked about.
MC: I’m not assuming you guys talked about me.
ALFIE: We talked about a bunch of stuff. It wasn’t just about you.
MC: So you and Suresh DID talk about me!
Alfie hesitates.
ALFIE: Yeah, Suresh told me some stuff. Why?
CHOICE
①. None of my business
②. Is Suresh turning you against me?
③. I care about your opinion, not Suresh’s
①.
MC: Whatever. You boys are entitled to your private chats.
MC: It’s not my place to constantly censor people’s opinions of me.
ALFIE: I still think you're a top girl. You've got the bants, the looks, the personality.
ALFIE: But there's still loads we don't know about each other yet.
②.
MC: He better not be feeding you lies about me.
ALFIE: You don't know what he said about you.
MC: I know there are two sides to every story. Suresh could be biased when it comes to our past.
MC: He has no right to try to sabotage whatever connections I might be building here in the villa…
③.
MC: I’m not bothered by what Suresh thinks about me. I care what you think about me.
MC: Suresh is going to say what he feels. But remember he’s my ex.
MC: My past is my past. Anything you've heard, I hope it hasn't ruined any potential here and now.
ALFIE: Don't worry. I form my own opinions on people.
ALFIE: You and me, we've got a connection, for sure.
{If wearing gem outfit}
ALFIE: And you’re looking incredible in that outfit, my days.
ALFIE: But like I said, It's early days.
ALFIE: Who knows what will happen?
{If chose Alfie E01}
ALFIE: Sure, you originally chose to couple with me, but things change fast in here.
{If chose Eddie E01}
ALFIE: Sure, you originally chose to couple with Eddie, but things change fast in here.
{If chose Suresh E01}
ALFIE: Sure, you originally chose to couple with Suresh, but things change fast in here.
ALFIE: A day is like a week in the villa.
ALFIE: We're still all figuring each other out. Don’t you think?
CHOICE
①. Absolutely! Same page
②. I’m neutral
③. I’ve figured out I’m into you
①.
MC: Definitely agree! We’re still the getting-to-know-everyone phase.
MC: In the meantime, it’s good we keep things light and easy.
MC: After all, tomorrow’s a new day.
②.
MC: I want everyone to be open-minded and not write people off too fast.
MC: Do you and I have a clean slate moving forward?
ALFIE: I hope so!
③.
MC: I already know I’m into you.
MC: I know what I like.
MC: If you’re not completely sold on me yet, I’ll just have to get grafting tomorrow, won’t I?
ALFIE: I look forward to it.
ALFIE: Excited to see what’s in store for us in the morning!
——————————————————————————————
You enter the iconic villa bedroom and cosy up in bed, alone. Suresh is outside on the day beds, ‘giving you space’.
You look around the room at the other couples snuggled up in bed together: Kat and Alfie, Dana and Eddie.
Finn stops by the foot of your bed.
FINN: You alright in that big bed all by yourself?
CHOICE
①. Heck yes! Extra space!
②. My mind is racing. I can’t relax
③. Actually, it's kinda lonely without a hot boy in here
①.
MC: I'm loving all this room.
You stretch out, luxuriantly.
FINN: Bet you wish I was taking up some of that room.
MC: Sounds like that’s YOUR wish, Finn…
MC: I'm enjoying having the bed to myself.
②.
MC: Ugh, no. I just can't turn off my brain and get comfy.
FINN: Would be a lot comfier with me in there with you.
MC: If you’re trying to help, thanks…
MC: But I just can't relax.
MC: My brain is whirling.
Finn perches on the edge of the bed.
FINN: Worried about the Alfie/Suresh situation?
MC: I'm not sure where I stand with either of them.
FINN: Try to sleep. Save sorting it for the morning.
③.
MC: All I’m missing is a sexy boy beside me.
FINN: Sounds like you need some company.
MC: Who says I was talking about you?
FINN: Of course you were. I'm VERY good company.
MC: I'm sure you are…
MC: But we're not a couple.
FINN: Yet.
He winks.
Finn wanders off toward his own bed, but continues chatting away to the whole room.
FINN: Don't worry, ladies. I won't be going to bed on my lonesome after tomorrow.
CHOICE
①. I'd love to get in his bed
②. I wish he’d cut the cockiness and let us sleep
①.
You lean across to the neighbouring bed and whisper to Dana.
MC: Imagine what it'd be like to curl up next to Finn?
MC: His shredded, tatted arms spooning you?
You shiver with excitement. Dana giggles.
DANA: That could be you in 24 hours, if he chooses you to couple up with tomorrow.
②.
You lean across to the neighbouring bed and whisper to Dana.
MC: I could use a break from Finn's constant cockiness.
MC: Ugh, I’m trying to sleep.
DANA: Like, we get it, Finn. You're hot and single.
MC: My brain is fried from all the drama today. I just want to sleep and wake up clear-headed tomorrow.
The bedroom lights go out and you settle in for sleep. But some rustling and whispering makes you open your eyes.
You look to your side and you can just make out Alfie and Kat in the next bed. A few tell-tale giggles suggest something more than just snuggling is going on.
KAT: Oh, Alfie.
ALFIE: You’re naughty.
You roll over. In the bed on your other side, you see the shadows of Dana and Eddie. They're spooning!
But Eddie soon nods off. A full day of flexing his pecs must have left him exhausted. He starts snoring, loud enough to drive Dana to the very edge of their bed.
You're distracted by more giggles rising from Kat and Alfie's bed.
Alfie and Kat are completely under the duvet. You see Kat's outstretched arm drop a piece of her nightwear to the floor. You can't be sure exactly what's happening, but it certainly seems like she's abandoned the no-cracking-on code.
CHOICE
①. Hide your head under a pillow
②. Get Dana's attention
③. Cough loudly
①.
You shove your head under your pillow. You don't want to see or hear any more.
②.
You roll over onto your other side. Psstt! You softly get Dana's attention.
When she blinks open an eye, you lean over and whisper.
MC: Are you seeing this?!
You nod toward Alfie and Kat's bed.
Dana sits up, looks over, and whispers back to you.
DANA: Is she breaking the pact already?!
You shrug.
Dana throws a balled-up pair of socks at Alfie and Kat's bed. You giggle.
Dana hisses at Alfie and Kat's duvet.
DANA: Oi! What happened to the pact, Kat?
Kat pops her head over the duvet, shoots you a grin, and then disappears back under it. Dana turns to you.
DANA: We're definitely grilling her about this tomorrow!
③.
You cough, loudly and on purpose. Alfie and Kat's giggles stop for a second.
But as soon as you shut your eyes, the giggles start back up again. You sigh and bury your head in your pillow.
Dana sneaks over to your bed and whispers.
DANA: I have to tell you! I can't sleep on it.
MC: What?
DANA: Earlier, Alfie told me that Suresh was hinting that your flirty behaviour with Alfie was just games.
DANA: Just a way to make Suresh jealous.
Before you can react to this revelation, Suresh walks into the room to get some insect repellent. You and Dana instantly stop talking.
Suresh looks over at you. There's a moment of tension. You hold your breath.
Suresh gives you a smile.
SURESH: I know I said I’d give you space, but good guys say good-night, right?
SURESH: Sleep tight. See you in your dreams.
He winks and leaves for the day beds.
DANA: Seems Suresh wants to play some games after all.
DANA: Question is: What are you going to do about it, [MC]?
NARRATOR: Kat and Alfie have already had more under the sheets action than I’ve had all year.
NARRATOR: Just kidding. I went dressed as a ghost to a fancy dress party. It counts.
NARRATOR: But will Kat and Alfie’s coupling come to a premature Finn-ish tomorrow night?
NARRATOR: Or will our crafty bombshell couple up with [MC] instead?
NARRATOR: Find out next time on Love Island.

I'd love to see if you have any ideas on how you think Katana and Slushie would first meet or become friends! We've been throwing out some silly ideas already but any call out to you specifically?
(Could be a multiverse thing, could be just your universe's Slushie counterpart, idk)
im gonna try to stick to my universe, just in case i mess something up with hers hehe
would love to write the oc cuties!
Katana huffed in his last "calming breath" before stepping back out onto the floor. It had been quite the lunch rush and he was pretty keen to spend the next 4 hours either staring at a wall or screaming at it. Still, he had one hour to go. One hour of busting his stripey ass and trying not to lose his cool- He never did at work, but today may have been his day.
"Keep yourself in the zone, son. Let your mind be calm as a river.."
That's what his father told him. Well, his river was just about ready for a tidal wave. His last table had done it. He was about ready to slice their whole party in half, or quit.
But surely, he could get through this last hour..
Thankfully, the place was dead. It wouldn't be long before they'd close till dinner, so it made sense, but it was still unusually quiet. Lucy gestured to a booth near the entrance, where someone light furred and fluffy took up most of one side.
Table for one? Okay loser... Actually I could do with some loser time too...
"Hey there! Welcome to the Golden Tiger! I'll be your server, names Katana- call me Kat."
The girl- some kind of fox he guessed- seemed surprised at his greeting. She jolted slightly, but didn't look up.
"Soooooo...... Can I get ya something orrrr... is that seat just comfy?" he asked, trying to keep himself from drifting.
"Umm.. do you have any recommendations? The Red Braised Pork looks good..." she murmured, with a sniffle.
Katana read all he needed from this girl, she was upset about something, probably had been crying. Just wants something yummy to make her feel better. So... in other words- an easy customer!
Or at least not his last customer!
"I mean... people order it? I can't tell ya personally if it's good since I'd die if I ate it but..." he chuckled.
Tell a little joke, show them the smile- god I'm such a good server!
"Is it... spicy?" she asked nervously, glancing up through her bangs, finally. She shot her eyes back to the menu soon after, though.
"yyyeah....? I mean, it won't kill ya but..."
"That sounds good.."
"Okay cool, and for drinks?-"
"-And some scallop pancakes, and extra rice... and the pork dumplings... and the egg drop soup please.."
Katana kind of just paused for a little before writing all that down. "Oookayyy.. You are... hungry. Um.. Drinks?"
"Just... green tea is fine..." she added, shyly sliding the menu over.
"Sure.. won't be long.." Katana gave another wonky smile before making his exit, just in time to see her steal a look.
Great, I'm the entertainment today I guess...
He took a look back at her, then to her order. Dang was it a lot of food, was this girl some kind of body builder? Where did she put it all? The cost didn't shake him, since their prices were pretty good for the quality, but the AMOUNT.
Girl ordered 3 sides and 2 mains dang it! Even with MAD munchies I couldn't do THAT!
He couldn't even be bothered to hand the order slip to his mother by this point, choosing instead to rip the page out and flick the page in her general direction and shout "Reflex test!" before heading back out.
Still dead. Good.
He leaned on the wall and stared at nothing, his mind still not hazed enough for his liking. Nevermind, soon enough he could just make a nest and just...
Do nothing?
He sighed and took a stroll back to the table.
"Hey."
The girl shot her gaze up, this was probably the last thing she wanted- to be berated by her server, the horror. But... Katana was bored, so she could suffer.
"So.. what are you doin' here all by yourself? New here?"
She blushed. "I have a friend in station square... well, she wasn't home, but she mentioned coming here before I think? She said it was... good"
"I mean, it's okay..." Katana drawled back "Yea, Sonic came here once. really put us on the map- brought all his friends"
The girl looked quite surprised at the name drop "Sonic the hedgehog?"
"Yea.. I think he was a hedgehog.. Looked like one... Apparently he's a big deal" he shrugged casually, fully knowing the huge celebrity status he had.
"Wow." she responded, kind of in awe "My friend... might have been with them..."
Katana hissed playfully through his teeth, giving a cheeky smile "Dang, you got famous friends? And here I was thinking I could impress ya with that one!"
She giggled. Haha! Cheering up already!
"Actually, I've been meaning to visit Mystic Ruin for a while. The temples are really beautiful and.." she blushed in a sort of dreamy way "at night... you can't beat the view... so many stars..."
"Oh.. right on. I guess I'm used to it, hehe... You don't get a sky like that in the big city."
Katana looked around nervously, where was this girl's dang food? Why hadn't anyone told him to buzz off yet? Weren't people generally creeped out by lizards, anyway?
"You know I don't think I heard you right when you introduced yourself, so I was surprised when you weren't a cat!" she giggled. Oh, so that's what that look was about.
"Oh, that's cool. I thought someone left their coat in the booth"
She giggled more. Okay, maybe this was a nervous thing now.
"It just sounded like... you said your name was Katana?"
"My name is Katana" he corrected, as if it weren't a strange thing to be named.
"Oh..."
"Katana! C'mere! Mom's got the food ready!" Lucy called "Get off your smoke cloud and come get it!"
"Geez, Fine! I'm comin', Batty!" he took his time at first, but remembered he liked this girl now so got his ass in gear. Though he was uneasy at how she stared at him again once his back was turned.
"Okay, that everything? Enjoy! And er... Have a good day!"
"Thanks... by the way.. sorry, you noticed me staring, didn't you..."
Do I make it awkward? uhhhhhh YEAH
"Ya, Don't worry, I know I'm a bit of a spectical.." He remembered the note he got instead of a tip from his last table, growling.
"I can't help but.. be fascinated by... scales... sorry!"
Ooooohhhhhh, she likes lizards! Duh!
Maybe she's dating one hehe
"Oh no worries, enjoy ya meal... errr"
"Slushie."
"Seriously?- I mean!- Nice name! Aw man... Well, we're even now! Hey let me know when you want a to-go box, 'Kay?"
Slushie nodded with a silly smile, already dug into her food.
To Katana's utter shock, she didn't need the to-go box

Spoilers for Layton Brothers: Mystery Room
Prompt: fics you read when you need to cry
Title: To Absent Fathers and Broken Sons
Author: @anonymouspuzzler
Fandom: Layton Brothers: Mystery Room
Rating: Teen and Up Audiences
Word Count: 12940
Summary: It has been exactly seventeen days since his son - his only son, a mere twenty-five years old - had been left on the brink of death.
-----
So I love the Professor Layton series, and Mystery Room is probably my second favorite entry in the series (though it's technically a spin-off). It has it's problems, but I overall I think it's really fun. But one of the aspects that I find the most interesting is the one canon never really addresses, which is the Layton kids.
The PL timeline is honestly a mess (it's always been wonky, and then Lady Layton decided to wreck whatever structure it had), but the idea of seeing Flora, Alfendi, and Kat growing up together is just delightful to me. So of course, I've spent plenty of time looking for fanfic of this exactly. And this fic is my favorite version of that.
You don't really see direct interactions between the three of them, but the fic excellently communicates their dynamic to you. I love that Al and Kat are particularly close, which makes so much sense and delights me.
In general, Al is wonderfully characterized here. What he's like pre-canon is pretty vague, and I don't always like the way people choose to interpret him. But this fic's version of him is great. There's such a good balance of what we do see of Al in the game, and also what you would expect of him given his family. I'll shout out two favorites I like: Al is a really good cook, and he loves doing community theater.
But, as the prompt says, this is a fic I come to when I want to cry, so let's address that.
The focus of the fic is the father son relationship between Layton and Alfendi over the years. It mostly moves chronologically, but you start the fic with the knowledge that we're going to end up in the hospital with Alfendi shot and confessing to a murder. It does a great job building tension over the course of the story. We watch as, initially, the two have a pretty good relationship, but over time it starts to dissolve. They grow apart, and every time you see them drift farther, it hurts that much more because you know where things are going.
I could break this fic down scene by scene, but I'm going to focus on my favorite scene, and the one that really breaks my heart. It's the last scene (chronologically at least) before Al gets shot. It's the scene when drunk Al calls Layton.
This scene is so good, because Al lays into his dad, finally letting loose with all his anger and frustration at Layton and how he failed the kids growing up. And the best part of this fic: he's right.
The fic is clear, from the start, that Layton isn't a perfect parent. He's a single dad with a job that frequently pulls him out of the country, and the fic doesn't shy away from how this affects the kids. So when Al lays it all out, the specifics of how this affected him growing up, Layton just accepts it. Tells Al he's right, apologizes, and makes it clear that Al doesn't have to forgive him.
And this scene, where Layton is open about his own flaws, and Al breaks down because he wanted a fight but Layton isn't fighting him, it freaking guts me. On its own, it already breaks my heart, but it's so much harder because we know that this is it. There will be no time for them to fix their relationship because Al is about to get shot.
The final section of this fic also breaks my heart. The dread that sits in my stomach as the fic moves towards the end, and I know that Alfendi is going to confess to the murder and be a different person. In particular, the part where Al suddenly breaks and starts desperately telling his dad he didn't do it and begging him not to leave, and the narration says that this is their last conversation--
Overall, I think this is the fic I come to because it's not just one scene that makes me cry. The fic as a whole has this tragedy filling it that's so beautifully written and presented. I adore every scene, and this is easily my favorite version of the Layton family. The author tackles the incredible feat of making sense of the timeline and does so expertly while also managing to walk the challenging tightrope of "Layton is an incredibly well-intentioned but ultimately flawed parent".
I would strongly encourage any fans of Mystery Room to check this fic out. It does carry a good bit of tension from your knowledge of the game, but personally I'd say if you are a fan of the Layton series, this is still a great fic. As I said, I think this is a great representation of Layton as a father, and you are missing out to skip it.

fandom 1x1 search
Hello all!  It is I, Tulsa, back again with another fandom ad hehe.  A little about me before we continue on, I am 24 so all partners NEED to be 18+ for my own comfortability.  I also like to add a bit of spice (NSFW) into my plots, so there’s another reason for only 18+ partners lmao.  I am located in the Central timezone but just recently moved here from EST, so my sleep schedule is a lil wonky, so I may reply at weird hours haha.  As for replies, I tend to send 2+ paras multiple times a day, I live for rapid fire!  However, as long as I can get multiple posts a week, I’ll be okay!  
Currently, I’m looking for someone to play M opposite my F characters, some are original and some are canon.  When it comes to doubling I am open to it, however I won’t double just as a transaction.  If for some reason I don’t think I can pull off requested character or something else, I do want to reserve the right to decline, I understand that you may then decline as well.  I just wanted to put that out there though.  I prefer to write in third person, on Discord using servers and, if you can, tupperbox too!
As for fandoms, these are the characters/ships I’m searching for.  When it comes to ocs, I know there tends to be a negative stigma, but I’d appreciate even just reaching out to get their bios and/or to ask for more info.  
~Kol Mikaelson~ & Averie Forbes (OC) - Vampire Diaries
~Derek Hale~ & Paige Krasikeva (Canon Divergent) - Teen Wolf
~Billy Hargrove~ & Kat Wheeler (OC) - Stranger Things
~Finnick Odair~ & Annie Cresta - Hunger Games
~Spencer Reid~ & Olivia Chandler (OC)  - Criminal Minds
The male roles, aka the ones with ~ around them, would be who you’d play while I’d play the other half of the pairing.  
Also, when it comes to ooc chatter I don’t mind fangirling or general chit chat, but what does bother me is holding conversations for days on end with no replies or no mention of replies.  I find making friends through roleplay a bit awkward so if it happens organically I’m here for it, but I don’t want it to be forced.  I hope that doesn’t make me sound harsh.  We can easily discuss triggers and other deeper things if we decide to play together.  Let me know if you’re interested, my discord is toxicdeliquency#7795

*I offer Jenova a kit kat bar.*
Jenova is technically not using her physical body (now in a newly headless package) and therefore can't really eat, nor does she need to. On top of that, the idea of human food of any kind repulses her.
Imagine if you were marooned on a different planet and the creatures there offered you weird alien food that's completely beyond what you know. You wouldn't touch it.
Jenova's species, now extinct, can function for centuries without sustenance. They were designed to hunt and ambush prey in huge quantities through trickery and mimicry before slowly digesting like a snake for long periods of time. They ate BIG organisms. Perhaps there's even the sinister implication there that Jenova herself might have consumed a Cetra or two in her "friendly visit" to Gaia. But that's just wonky Altoverse lore for you.
Anyway, I'm afraid you'll have to keep your KitKat. Squid mom don't want that gross human junk.

Tbh I think Katherine should've been moved to The Originals sometime after the Mikaelson's settled in.
Her storyline after the Mikaelson's leave TVD honestly gets wonky as shit. Especially because they fuck with her characterization so much and I hate the idea of her being the 'final villain' after she got to say goodbye to her daughter AND I think her going to hell is bullshit. She's a very grey character, if she couldn't have gone to heaven - purgatory would've been fine. Hell was not.
I do genuinely think that Elijah and Katerina had real feelings for each other, so I do think Kat would've been interested in following Elijah to New Orleans even on the risk of Klaus possibly killing her. She ran for 500 years and is Katerina Petrova. She can get around Klaus without getting caught - we've seen her do it before.
I do think her storyline with Silas makes sense, the whole stealing the cure thing, the headstone thing, and the whole compelling a town thing. But I think the part where she tries to kill Elena for 'stealing her life' is where they deviated from Kat's personality.
In a way, it makes sense, but at the same time - Kat's had 500 years of life to live and Klaus had disappeared from the world for a long time, so I do think Kat would've at some point been able to spend a few years with a 'normal' life [I mean… Salvatore Brother Loving years? I mean, c'mon that could NOT have been the only time she did that].
I think after the whole part where Kat is linked to Bonnie, when Bonnie fails to give her Silas-Strength immortality, I think Kat would've cut and run because it got a little too close to Elena killing her and Kat is nothing if not a survivalist. I think that's when she should've gone to The Originals.
Now we know the TVD/TO timeline is fucked because Timeline-wise Rebekah is both in New Orleans helping Hayley and Klaus look for Elijah while also in Mystic Falls looking for the Cure. So, that's fucking stupid but maybe in this storyline - Kat is the one who takes Rebekah's place in the first season sort of? Maybe mini-disappearances from the first season of The Originals would've been the island, hiding the cure, and the whole bound-to-Bonnie moments. Which in grand scheme would've only been a few weeks of time and thus the disappearances might've made sense in the whole 'hiding from Klaus but also trying to find Elijah when he doesn't answer the phone' thing.
I don't know where I'm going with this lmfao - I can't really rewrite the whole series to add Kat in without making a timeline and I'm not that patient tonight.
But I do think it would've been so much fun to see Katherine and Klaus sort of find this shaky middle ground because = They've both lost a child who then returned to them later. I do think the whole Nadia storyline would've been fun for season two of the Originals too, especially since Hayley would've just given Hope to Rebekah, who'd come in towards the end of Season one, and it would've been fascinating to see the whole storyline go down - Klaus just gave his child away, only for Katerina's to show up and cause some bullshit.
Also, Katherine's death in TVD season 5 was fine - emotional and it made me happy that she got to make Nadia happy towards the end BUT - I don't think that should've been the end for Katherine. I think both Nadia and Katherine should've gotten happier endings.
I just think Katherine moving to The Originals would've been a fun storyline, especially due to the whole Hayley/Elijah side of it. AND we would've [hopefully] gotten a sort of reconciliation between Klaus and Katherine [and ya know, if Klaus ends up in Heaven I think he owes one of the biggest apologies to Katherine tbh] and maybe even some form of kinship after sending Hope away and the whole Nadia of it all.
As Kat said, Her and Klaus a lot more alike than they think. I do think it would've been fun to see it. Also because the Tatia of it all, seeing Hayley and Kat have moments where they don't hate each other but don't like each other, bonding over the Mom-situation they find themselves in. And Also, I think it would've been fucking funny watching Kat fake-gag at Klaus and Cami because you KNOW she would've had some form of sarcastic commentary about it.
