Aaron in his Disney princess era🌸
PART 1 || PART 2 || PART 3 ||
Andrew sucks at telling his emotions apart bc ✨trauma✨ so he starts picking up habits to help him. He tucks his thumb into his fist when he’s hurt but leaves it on the outside if he’s angry. If he isn’t sure, he just has to look down at his hands to figure it out.
Kevin has a vague grasp of the rules of chess at best and has never won a game in his life
On the subject of chess, Nicky buys Kevin the drinking game version of chess (the one where all the pieces are shot glasses) for his birthday
One day, Andrew discovers a new fear: walking past a group of teens and having them all coincidentally laugh just as he goes past
Neil’s really good at reading expressions and eventually he has to do an hour long presentation for Matt about the different types of side glances the girls do bc Matt doesn’t understand how they’re doing that and he wants in on their secrets
Nicky and Allison are mean together. They don’t often get along, but the odd days they do, someone is going to regret their life choices
Speaking of the two of them being mean, clearly trying to explain to Neil that he can’t dress like he’s homeless didn’t work and neither did trying to use Andrew as leverage so they just try to bully him into doing better. It doesn’t work because Neil doesn’t give a shit what anyone says about him if it’s not about Exy
Kevin models for a promotional Exites event, but the pictures are like, super cringey for the foxes because they know him and ew. Upon finding out that even Kevin hates them, Dan and Allison (and Renee who will vehemently deny she was a part of it) bully their way into getting one of the ten foot posters and stick it to the outside of fox tower where it stays for two months
When the freshman first start, the foxes set up a challenge. Andrew and Aaron dress identically and every freshman has to guess which twin is which. Those who get it wrong have to do a forfeit decided by the twins. Punishments range from buying Andrew enough cigarettes and ice cream for a month to having to run through the library naked at a peak time
Aaron is king of sitting in weird positions. He’ll be studying at his desk crouched like a little gremlin or watching tv with his legs in a W shape. Sitting in positions like that has made him oddly flexible, and Katelyn is the only person in the entire world who will ever know that Aaron can easily do the splits
Renee is excellent at being patronising. She’d never argue with someone directly, that’s not her thing, but if you get on her bad side, be prepared to be patronised for weeks. That little false smile and “sure, sweetie” is enough to drive anyone mental
((I have more, but they’re going in a separate, sad hc post bc I want to keep this one lighthearted))
as we're all anxiously awaiting the release of wayward son (I know that is understatement of the year but we're going to go with it) I just wanted to reiterate a point I know many people have already made about spoilers!
(I know this is the point at which everyone will start to groan, but please hear me out!!)
not everybody will have access to wayward son on september 24th!
for example, I live in the UK and here, it doesn't come out until october 3rd. (this isn't really much of a difference but it's enough for us to get spoiled!)
in many places it may not come out for months after sept. 24th, and these people do not deserve to be spoiled!!
so please, no spoilers at all until october 24th (a month after the US release)! and after this point, please be very careful to tag your spoilers so that people who have not had the chance to read it won't have to see them!
this is also helpful for slightly slower readers, or readers with very busy schedules! they don't deserve spoilers either!
in conclusion, TAG SPOILERS FOR WAYWARD SON!
it may be a bit more work for you, but you could save multiple people from being spoiled!
thanks :))
(also if you could spread this it would be greatly appreciated!!)
So I’ve been listening to podcasts again and I wish someone had done this for me when I started out, so let’s sum up and describe some podcasts, shall we?

The Magnus Archives - Jonathan Sims, newly instated Head Archivist at the Magnus Institute, London, is trying to sort through statements of people that claim to have had all kinds of supernatural encounters, while only having a taperecorder to do so, because for some reason, the statements won’t let themselves be recorded on anything else. But I’m sure it’s nothing, right? Supernatural Horror at it’s finest, with incredible characters and worldbuilding. 200 episodes.
Welcome to Nightvale - An incredibly cryptic podcast, set in the fictional town of Nightvale, where all the conspiracy theories are true. Listen to Cecil Palmer, the host of Nightvale Community Radio talk about the happenings in the town, his day and that strange, beautiful new scientist that has come to town. Over 200 episodes, ongoing.
Wolf 359 - Communication Officer Doug Eiffels log of the USS Hepaestus’ journey, observing the red dwarf wolf 359. Twists and turns, some expected, some most definitely not, all in all a good time for all podcast fans. 61 episodes.Â
The Strorage Papers - Unsetteling horror stories, found in a storage lot, unraveling faster that a ball of yarn. Can you keep up? And, perhaps the more important question: Can you keep it together? Carefully crafted stories that make you lock your doors twice. 104 episodes, ongoing.
The Penumbra Podcast - The space noir tales of Private I, Detective Juno Steel and his adventures on planet mars. A podcast so mysterious and casually queer, it’s almost addictive. Although their phonecall noise sounds like my alarmclock, the sound design, characters, storytelling and worldbuilding are unlike anything I’ve ever come across. 4 seasons with about 20 episodes.
Camp Here and There - Camp Nurse Sidneys recordings of her daily announcements. If you’re a fan of Gravity Falls, this is that next summer you’ve been waiting for. 34 episodes for now, possibly ongoing, possibly not.

This is it for now, I’ll be adding on when I can. I hope this’ll help someone…    or not.
Narumitsu Week 2021 - Day 5: Appearances
Okay so one of the many things that drives me absolutely nuts about most TV shows and (some) books that involve secret or classified information or secure facilities is how absolutely not secure everything is, so these are a few basic things that people get wrong:
You can't carry around classified information. There are, I assume, exceptions in specific cases, though they are assuredly very carefully managed, but random intel agent #12 cannot legally just take home classified information so they can work on it at home. That's incredibly illegal. And that's for a reason--secure facilities are, as the name suggests, secure. Everywhere else is varying levels of not secure. Even for people working with regular business or government materials on their work phone or laptop, there are varying levels of strict rules about where you can leave it, how to report a lost device, and not keeping it in checked bags.
Badges should be innocuous and limited in visible information. Any sensible security system doesn't have badges that are numbered/colored/otherwise identified by access level, because that is a really easy way to identify targets for thieves/people who want to break in. American federal ID cards (CAC for military, PIV for civilian) have really specific layouts. Some companies distinguish between full time employees, interns, vendors, etc in their cards.
Badges shouldn't be displayed outside of the office. This is not really followed by real people (if you get on the metro on DC you will see a wide variety of visible badges), but displaying a badge is not security-wise because 1) it makes them easier to steal, and 2) it can make you a target.
Names/access level/information shouldn't be openly announced. I'm looking at you, MCU Spider-Man fanfiction. Just. Don't.
Confidential/classified information shouldn't be openly discussed. Stop having your characters talk about confidential or classified information in front of people who shouldn't know it, or even just out in the open at all. They shouldn't be telling their parents, their friends, their spouses, etc. Even businesses or government buildings that deal with sensitive information, there may be spaces where certain things can or can't be discussed, and employees/contractors will go through approximately 8 million trainings on where you can't discuss certain information. This also involves erasing whiteboards, locking computers, etc.
You can't have cell phones in certain secure facilities. People shouldn't be having their cell phones with them in SCIFs. This prohibition extends to all things that can be recording devices, including furbies.
