Binge TV

I just finished binge watching the six episodes of season 1 of Angela Black. A British TV series, that I guess just ran for one season. If not, the next one will start a new story, because this one was complete. Damn, British TV is so smart, and intelligent, and really good. I love that they use the f-word so much. I use that word, and I get some really ugly looks sometimes.

Anyway, having been through therapy a few times, I really got that Angela was not really nuts, but those two men drove her to it. What an evil man her husband was. I am so glad she finally won the fight, and got her boys back.

Scotland is, of course, the place I would most like to be, and I am enjoying the Scottish foods I can make, and that I can order a lot of ingredients through Amazon. I also buy the Irn Bru everyone month. While I like my gin straight, I am finding that I cannot really afford to keep buying the Scottish Kings, and it takes so long to get to me. So I am back to the Gilbeys that I drank so many years ago (London based, though I get it as distributed by somewhere in Kentucky), and I am actually mixing it with the Irn Bru.

But my second place would be Tuscany. I am enjoying this series (just beginning to watch it) because I love the scenery (not as good as Scotland, but still................), and I like the ingredients that are used to make Tuscan recipes. This apparently is a show of contestants who have to make up their own recipes, or make their versions of dishes already well-known, and seems to have 7 episodes, the final winner to get a complete cuisine school (not sure it is just Italian food). Anyway, loving seeing the beautiful food dishes they are making. Not going to finish all 7 episodes tonight.

I am having a gin and Irn Bru drink, and going to eat a Walkers mince pie. Then go to bed soon.

Thank you for the compliment about your group liking my posts. I figure it is mostly for Sam, but I hope you are at least entertained a bit by some of the other stuff I write. I really am 82, born on December 4, 1940 (older than WW 2 in America), and don't get too bored. I would rather be entertaining than always wingeing. I am glad I found tumblr; it is a relief from the reality we are presenting living through, at least in this country.

Love you all.

Beck: Verses: Hogwarts (In Depth Version)

I wrote this before but it felt a little too vague. Ok that and I can't actually find where I wrote it out before on here. So...here I am, at it again.

In any Wizarding World/Fantastic Beasts/Harry Potter verses, Beck's kind of witches are still their own separate sort of witches. They have their own lineages, societies, schools, ways of life, and understanding of magic which can, at times, be at odds with that of the Wizarding World. They originated separately and have remained estranged for thousands of years; however they are aware of one another. Occasionally Bregða Witches (what my witches call themselves) do marry wizards or witches from the WW. If you have any questions about how I handle this, we can talk it out. I don't want to favor my lore over anyone else's, I just don't want to give it up entirely. It does shape who my characters are.

Beck's timeline shifts a bit in this verse.

She and Fen are still the children of the leaders of two old and powerful Bregða clans, the Wolves and the Foxes. Power in these clans is passed down through birth right, but since Beck was born into the priesthood, she cannot inherit the political possition of either of her parents. Her father still dies when she's six from an incurable magical ailment. Fenris, at age seven, is forced to take on his father's role as clan leader (though his mother technically rules through him).

Her paternal grandparents become extremely distraught over the loss of their only son, and in their anguish, Beck's mother cuts them off entirely. She takes Beck and her brother Fenris to Sweden to live with her mother for a year, only to flee when Linnea Tandy starts to get angry with the mistreatment of her grandchildren.

At this point, Beck starts to refuse to answer to her birthname Dahlia Adelaida, and demands to be called Beck by everyone but her brother, Fen. Fenris will always refer to her by her middle name Adelaida or Addie.

Beck and Fen are on their own from this point on. They're each doing whatever it takes to survive their mother. For Beck, that's running away. She's desperately trying to escape to the wilderness where her mother can't hurt her, and her mother is constantly dragging her back because Beck's constant attempts to flee embarrass her. Eventually, in an attempt to break her daughter from ever running again, Elea kills Beck's familiar, Dawnbreaker, when she's about ten years old. Dawn was a piece of Beck's soul, as all familiars are for my witches, and she was also the closest thing Beck had to a maternal figure. The loss of her almost kills Beck. She stops eating, she spends all hours of the day pacing her room until she collapses from exhaustion.

Fenris, who was always extremely close with his sister, becomes enraged. He's allowed his mother to use him as a puppet and while he's terrified to lose anyone else, even someone as vile as their mother, he believes he must choose between his sister and his mother. He chooses Beck. Killing a familiar is a high crime. Killing your child's familiar is punishable by death. Fenris demands his own mother's head. He calls for her to be killed in the same way she killed Dawnbreaker a few months prior. His maternal grandmother, Linnea, supports his bid, and Elea Tandy is hanged for her crimes.

Beck and Fenris are taken to live with Linnea on the Tandy Estate, but it is clear that nothing is really helping Beck. She's still restless, she still has to be coaxed to eat anything, her magic is extremely unpredictable. Fenris isn't doing much better after executing his own mother and finding that it didn't save his sister. Linnea is extremely distraught and desperate enough to do just about anything to help her grandchildren.

Their aunt Rob drops in for a visit a couple of months later with her wife, a witch from the Wizarding World who graduated from Hogwarts with fine memories of the place. She suggests sending the children there in hopes that the change of scenery, the challenges of learning new ways of magic, and the team of professional educators might help the two heal. Linnea, in her desperation, tears through centuries of estrangement and concocts a plan. She has the money, the influence, and the power to make things happen. She contacts the Minister of Magic, then Dumbledore. Money changes hands, promises are made, and Beck and Fenris are accepted to Hogwarts under the guise of a start of a new political arrangement between the Bregða and the Wizarding World.

They enter the school a few months later. Fen is allowed to join the second years despite being a year behind, and Beck is placed into Harry and Co's class. They are both sorted into Slytherin, but for extremely different reasons.

Fenris fits in almost right away. He's smart, relentless, dedicated, and there is always a looming threat of violence that his classmates come to respect in that first year. He's juggling leading the Wolf Clan and studying at Hogwarts, and clearly very used to power. Fenris is a deathly serious person who knows how to spot weak spots and cut into them.

Beck is a fish out of water. Hogwarts is completely foreign, and feels more like a cage than anything else. She is still weak from the death of her familiar, and she has to come clean to several of the professors about her inability to read. Dumbledore is kind enough to provide accommodations like special quills that automatically write her thoughts when she holds them or books that will read aloud to her when she's in private. Still, she has no friends, no real desire to be around people at all, and is deeply traumatized from years of abuse.

In the summer following her first year, Beck finds her familiar Habrok/Grani. A sun spirit that takes the form of either a horse (Grani) or a red tailed hawk (Habrok). She convinces Dumbledore to let her bring him to Hogwarts in hawk form, saying that there isn't much difference between that and an owl. His company makes her second year more tolerable, but she's still struggling to fit in. Most of the teachers, Snape especially, have little tolerance for Beck's energetic nature. She spends a lot of time scrubbing cauldrons in detention, but she doesn't particularly mind. That Christmas, she is given a small black kitten that she names Angrboða and over the next several months, the kitten becomes Beck's second and final familiar.

Third year is easier, Boða doesn't share Beck's dyslexia, and as she gains sentience, she learns to read. The only problem is the cat's body responds to the magical bond a little too---vigorously. Boða is enormous. She grows to the size of a lynx within a few short months. Unlike Beck, who tends to be gentle and kind and friendly even in her suffering, Angrboða is vicious and highly protective of her witch. The constant harassment her fellow Slytherins heap on her decreases significantly under the threat of being mauled by a large feline. And yet, Beck still mostly minds her own business. She spends her free time in animal forms, sneaking into the forest behind the castle. Her grades are fairly poor, but outside of the classroom, in the depths of the woods, her true power shines.

She tries to run several times in her Hogwarts tenure. Each time her brother or her grandmother drags her back. A donation is made to the school, an excuse is made, and few of the students really notice. Fifth year she manages to escape for the longest period of time, and arrives at Hogwarts two weeks later than she was supposed to after being missing the whole summer and nearly dying from being mauled by a cougar. She gets in trouble often with Umbridge, but only ever serves detention with her once. Upon seeing her granddaughter maimed, Linnea Tandy made some very heavy threats to the Minister in order to remind him that she sent her grandchildren there to strengthen the bonds between their people. Umbridge leaves Beck alone for the most part, but the hatred between them is palpable.

Beck doesn't join Dumbledore's Army. In fairness to her, she isn't asked. None of the Slytherins are. It isn't like she has any real friends to speak of. Outside of class, Beck is a bit of a ghost. She is often seen from a distance, walking the fringes of the allowed student spaces or standing on the edge of the Black Lake. Even more often, she isn't seen at all.

She does greatly appreciate Hermione Granger's attempts to liberate house elves with S.P.E.W. but is too wary to outright approach her and actually voice that support.

In year six Beck finally finds a friend in Luna Lovegood. They're both a bit---peculiar to say the least, but in ways that tend to compliment one another. Beck makes a run for it when the Death Eaters attack Hogwarts.

Depending on our verse, it is up in the air whether or not Beck returns after Dumbledore is killed. But she DOES return regardless when the Battle for Hogwarts occurs. Normally she isn't a fighter/hero type, and she would rather stay away, but she does care about people and can't stand to do nothing in this particular instance. Rather than throw herself into the fray, Beck uses her power over animals and her knowledge of the forest to hide younger students deep in the woods where not even the Death Eaters dare roam. Those that do find their hiding spot, Beck is forced to kill in order to protect the students.

Beck is a bit of a terror in general. Once she recovers from Dawn's death, she slowly returns to her playful, hyperactive, gentle self, but being around so many people, especially so many people that dislike her, can turn that bouncy energy to frustration and make her a bit of a bitch. Professor Flintwick does take a liking to her. Beck joins the Frog Choir, and he comes to recognize that her magical talents are a bit---different and unorthodox after getting to see her more. He becomes a bit of a father figure over the years and usually it is Flintwick that the other professors call to rein her in if she's misbehaving, because he's the only one she properly listens to.

Finally: Beck still maintains her powers (the ability to shift into multiple animal forms, her influence/draw over animals, etc etc) and she's still a feral witch. She'll never be an extremely talented witch by traditional standards, but she has a lot of raw power that is specialized into a few areas that she's very very good at.

As Beck meets other muses/makes friends, she calms down. I wrote this out in kind of a "worst case scenario" format where Beck doesn't make many/any friends. She is skittish, but if people are nice to her she warms up very fast, and she's never outwardly cruel to anyone. She was placed into Slytherin a) because she was terrified to be separated from Fen in the beginning b) despite her dumb blonde act that she puts on, she is very clever and c) because she is ambitious, it is just---in a bit of a different way.

el camino 3/3

all done! whew. wild to end the story on a high note for once

first, from an earlier scene

this made me so angry I almost paused watching to stand up and pace. WHAT A THNG TO SAY TO HIM

anyway, aaron paul does comedy so well. I love his funny scenes

wow he was NOT bluffing. I thought it was obvious he wasn't..,poor choice, jesse

hardass about the 1800 but he's not a malicious person. lies to cops

I didn't expect this show to be such a scavenger hunt. the plot is basically 'jesse tries to get from point A to point B and collect things he needs and sometimes gets into fights'

it's not weak on plot, but the highlight is the characters. I can't see someone who hasn't watched the show really enjoying it or even understanding it

OH I get it. todd thinks of jesse as a pet. yeah it took me a while but it fits exactly. like a pet he looks after and treats relatively decently but uses like a working animal

neil is fucking off the walls. a DUEL?

I mean I knew this was vaguely a western but it doesn't fit super well tonally into the introspective, grounded, and largely nonviolent story so far

I mean what kind of maniac...

WHOO JESSE BOY PULLED A FAST ONE YEAH HE'S SO SMART

MAGNETS. SIPHONING. ROBOTS. what a smart boy

YEAH KILL THE BASTARD WHO MADE YA RUN LIKE A RAT

the flashback confused me so bad. first I was like 'who is he talking to nobody is left for him' and then we went and knocked on that door and this little old bald man came out and I was like ???? is that supposed to be ww???

well chalk that up ww looking strange and frail and tiny idk

anyway so classic that jesse goes "I like sports medicine" and ww goes "no. you should do business"

I'm sorry that cofounding a company, doing research that contributed to a nobel prize, getting married to someone you claim is the love of your life, and having two beautiful children wasn't 'special' enough for you mr "I only care about my family"

pathetic little man

omg...alaska...

know what hit me about this shot

SWEATER. he never needed a sweater before! he never changed his clothing style once. CHANGE. NEW ENVIRONMENT

like black sails when the setting shifted to philly...massive changes indicated by the scenery...the characters have gone through a great journey

I knew this was coming since my brother told me a little but it's so gratifying to see. he may be horrifically traumatized and he's probably going to see longterm health impacts but by god. he got away. he's in a completely new place, nice and quiet and very different from what he left behind, he's free. he has money! he can build all the boxes he wants! maybe he gets a dog. he seems like a dog guy

JANE I SEE JANE I miss her

I hope he gets the chance to have kids or something he really seemed to love being part of andrea's family unit

god, poor brock. he's got nobody. what even could jesse have put in his letter? and there's no money for them anymore

oh yeah and this?

I thought he made ed a card to thank him and I almost started crying. I guess I just crave stories where people love each other more. but of course it wasn't for ed

man but jesse must be so touch-starved. I just wish someone would give him a hug

but regardless

HE MADE IT!!!!

BABY (Jean) IT'S COLD OUTSIDE - @jtl-fics

prev | Baby Jean | WW 29.11.2023

The rest of the drive passed by uneventfully. Jean couldn't find it in himself to nap again, but the scenery outside was nothing new for him and he lost interest in watching the world pass by quickly. Still, he couldn't bring himself to lift his head out of the sunlight so he could read and occupy his mind with his book. So instead, he focused on the thrum of the wheels on the pavement until they reached the aquarium.

Translated English Lyrics:

Even when I close my eyelids, I see your reflection

Sad dreams and unquenchable tears, quietly turning colors

Find me in the vivid scenery

Pretending to be casual, let me catch you

‎

Will time change us both?

The sunset clouds we saw side by side, the small promise we made

The sound of our running footsteps fading away

I wonder how many words can reach you...

‎

I'll be a brightly colored me

Even a casual word, you see, shines through

See, it shines

[eng sub] wonwoo esquire korea, sep 2022 – interview

©wonwoosfeed

Q1. The content “Wonwoo’s diary” on seventeen’s official youtube channel has been a hot topic. I was wondering why there was suddenly a skit unfolding in a set of a countryside, but the more I watched it the more I fell in love with it. I was surprised because everyone acted so well.

WW: When we filmed it, I didn’t know it would get this much attention. In fact I felt doubtful and thought ‘would this be funny?’. I played the role of a novice documentary director who just had to observe other characters but the members felt a lot of pressure to be funny even before filming. But when we actually went into the shoot, everyone was unstoppable (laughs). There were many points to laugh about.

Q2. I heard there wasn’t any script at all.

WW: That’s right. There was only a character and situation set up without a script. The members have a greed to be funny, so even if no one asks them to, they would step up and do gags/comedy with their body. I knew everyone was so talented. I remember laughing throughout the shoot because I was able to see almost every scene in person as I was the role of an observer.

Q3. So far 2 episodes have been uploaded, are there any plans for episode 3?

WW: I played the role of a director in the video, but I wasn’t actually the one who planned it. We’ll be busy with the tour schedule during the second half of this year, so I don’t know if we would have time to. But after saying this, we might suddenly come back with a season 2. There are a lot of funny scenes that weren’t included in the content, and there are still ideas that we haven’t been able to try.

Q4. Aside from your role in <Wonwoo’s Diary>, I heard that you’ve been interested in filming videos for a long time.

WW: There’s a reason for this. Before Covid I often went on world tours but as I was busy traveling between cities then standing on stage, my memories got mixed up and vague. There were a lot of fun and touching moments on stage but it’s a pity to forget them all. So I wanted to keep them by recording them. At first, I filmed a few times for personal use, but as I got interested in it, I started wanting to learn it properly. After that, whenever I saw the video director, I learned editing skills and filming techniques from time to time. I even made a specific plan to film a documentary, but it was halted as external activities had to be greatly reduced due to Covid.

Q5. If you can shoot a video tomorrow without thinking about budget or schedule, what would you like to shoot?

WW: A music video. I want to film it like a short movie with a story. When I was working on the song “Round and Round” from the most recent repackaged album “Sector 17”, I thought “it would be fun to film a music video for this”. Mingyu is also interested in videos like me, so we talked about filming a hip-hop team music video together, but we couldn’t put it into practice.

Q6. Since you have a lot of interest in videos, I think you would like movies as well.

WW: I tend to watch movies regardless of genre, but I especially enjoy movies with a calm atmosphere and good scenery. Such as fluctuating waves and spreading forests, natures images that blend in well with the characters. The last movie I watched was “Decision to Leave” and I really liked it.

Q7. In another interview, you said you liked nature. That if you had time, you want to go to a quiet place and set up a tent and look up at the night sky.

WW: Being in the calm nature makes me feel relaxed. I started as a trainee at the age of 16 and I’ve been active as an idol till now, so I have a craving for freedom. During my debut and now, the reason why I like whales is because of the image of whales freely wandering around the wide sea. I often dream of taking a chance in a mysterious place where the overwhelming nature touches me. For example, imagine what it would be like to go to the deep sea. I guess it’s because I’m a person with a lot of curiosity.

Q8. But it would be hard to always visit such places due to your busy schedule.

WW: That’s true too. So I often watch youtube (videos) about delicious food these days. For example, “how to grill and eat Tomahawk steak deliciously”. I do watch mukbangs too, but I’m more attracted to videos that teach me how to cook than just eating. I haven’t followed and made any yet, but I have a feeling that I’ll try to soon. (Laughs) Or maybe I’ll go personally find it and eat it myself. It was mistakenly known that I have an habit to eat a little rice, but that’s not true. I love to eat.

Q9. Now that I see it, your hands are full of callouses. You must be working hard on weight training.

WW: It’s been about three years since I started. I didn’t start because I wanted to have a nice body, but I wanted to take care of my physical strength and condition. There was a time when I was greedy for weight, but these days, I only do it in a safe weight so that I don’t get hurt. When I overdo it, it hurts around my elbow. The members all like to exercise, so we all help each other work out. Personally, I like bench press the most.

Q10. Do you ever feel that you need some alone time since you’re always with the members?

WW: Of course I could think that sometimes. It’s like there’s a whole family that’s always been together having their own lives. Fortunately, we promised to be considerate of each other’s private life’s from the beginning and we are constantly trying to keep that promise. We’re being considerate to one another. We’ve been together for seven years, so I can feel it just by looking at our eyes. I think it’s important not to cross the line.
