Lovebraid’s Lament
By Jawmax
Chapter 1: Too little, too late.
The redheaded woman looked at the grimy bar and smiled. “Finally, some grownup time.” The woman was Gracie Green or as most of her “patients” knew her Ms. Gracie, the Wellness and Integration Counselor of Playtime co.’s Bigger Bodies Initiative, though that was of course a big secret. After a long day working and having to put up acting as the smiling Ms. Gracie, she was eager to change into some more adult attire, unwind, and have a few drinks, maybe even pick up a date while she was at it. And as luck would have it there was a handsome tough somewhat hard looking man with short dark hair right at the bar. As she got closer the more familiar, he looked. It took a moment to realize just who this was. “Terry? Terry Winters?”
“Who are.. Gracie Green?! I haven’t seen you since high school.” The man gave a small smile.
Gracie sat down next to Terry and told the bartender. “I’ll have what he’s having and give him
Chapter 4: It’s a Good Life.
“So, this is where she lives?” Sasha asked, looking at the nice-looking house in front of them.
“This is the right address.” Marcy checked on her phone.
“I don’t know what I was expecting. I never really thought about it before… Even our teachers and school staff have homes, families, and lives; we just don’t see them.” Anne murmured, holding up her mother’s Journal. “Still, I never expected for us to meet Principal Murphy’s again.”
“You said she helped your mom for over a month!”
“Hard to believe, Sash? Considering what she told me before we ended up in Amphibia, I really hope that we can reach her.”
“It’s been a week, and we made no progress; we have to find a way.” Marcy took a breath. “I went back to the library to see if the book I learned about the box had any clues but all it said was that it was one of a kind! We learned more about it in Amphibia.” The nerdy girl sighed before ringing the doorbell. A couple of seconds later, the door opened
Chapter 3: Our hearts betray us.
When Anne looked around, she realized she was in a large, old-fashioned house full of vintage cabinets and furniture. A glance down, and she saw that she was dressed in vintage, old-looking clothes: she was currently wearing a plain-colored dress, with a white apron, while her hair was shaped in big Victoria rolls. Yet, the most creepy thing around her was that the house and everything inside it (including herself) was in black and white, like those old Tv-shows of the past.
Before she could react to the surrounding reality, she heard airy music and unknown singing voices, sung from nowhere:
She's our Dutiful Wife, lovely and bright with soft curls.
She's our Dutiful Wife, a wonder among other girls.
She's a treasure, and I grant you.
She'll enchant you at first sight.
She's our Dutiful Wife, and she'll make your heart take flight.
She's fantastic, Calamity-tastic.
She’s a Heart loving and compassionate.
She's our Dutiful Wife, she brings love and

The next day Anne and the Plantars were in the kitchen enjoying a breakfast of blueberry muffins. “These are so good!” Polly exclaimed.
“Thank you, Polly.” Oum said. “Remember Anne, we have to take you to school early. I just wish I could have a lunch packed and ready for you.”
“Uh, Mom?” You haven’t packed me a lunch since fifth grade.” Anne said a little weirded, “I think we donated my old lunch box.”
“Yes, and we don’t have any sacks either! Fiddle sticks!”
“So? I’ll buy lunch in the cafeteria as usual: no big deal.”
“Except I’m not sure it still accepts cash.” Bee said. “Most places now use Unicred, a digital currency. I’ll download the app for you, and link you to our account.”
“Oh, like Byte Token? Thanks Dad!”
“In that case, we better get going, sweetie. I would like to talk to your principal.” Her mom replied, before turning to the Plantars. “Mr. Plantar I’m sure you and your grandchildren will be comfortable while we’re away. Dear

Chapter 1: Home’s not as it used to be.
Marcy had the music box and was trying to adjust it for their escape from King Andrias. “Marcy hurry!” Anne yelled.
“I just need to…” Marcy began not seeing Andrias behind her.
“Marcy! Look out!” Sash dove to her friend just before Andrias could stab Marcy in the back, both flying into the portal as the box hit the floor.
There was a bright flash of light and the next thing the human girls and the Plantars knew they were in the middle of a mostly empty road. “What the…?” Polly wondered.
“Oh my Frog!” Sprig said.
“What is this place? Hop Pop asked.
“Home. We’re home…” Anne gasped.
A plane flew overhead. “What is that thing?!”
“Just a plane.” Marcy said. “Like a mechanical Joe Sparrow, nothing to worry about.”
“Guys we’re on the freeway!” Sasha said. “A car could be speeding this way right now!”
They ran to a nearby park. “Woah!” the frogs gasped at the sight of skyscrapers.
“Am I dreaming?” Anne
Chapter 14: Rescue Operation!
Ronnie Anne entered the Bakugo household the very next morning. The only sounds she heard was Mitsuki crying in the living room. She and Masaru held each other, an old album with a of Mitsuki cradling the newborn Katsuki. “Of course, they’re worried sick.” Ronnie Anne thought. “Hey…”
Masaru looked up. “Oh! Ronnie Anne, we’re so glad your back.”
“We heard you were hurt!” Mitsuki said looking at the bandage on Ronnie Anne’s leg. “Are you okay?”
“Yeah, they say it will hurt for a couple of days, probably scar but I’m fine. I’m more worried about…you guys.” Ronnie was about to say Lincoln, or Katsuki, or any of her other classmates but this wasn’t the right time. She found herself staring at the photo.
“Hard to believe right?” Mitsuki forced a smile. “This was after he cried nonstop for an hour. I just…” then the dam broke, “…what are they doing to him now? Is he even alive?”
“I, I wish I knew.” Ronnie Anne wanted to find something, anything to reassure

Molly McGee wakes up to find her town of Brighton has gone back to the 1950's but she is the only one notices the change.
Then how about it happen to the Pines twins and Gravity Falls instead?"
---
"This is not the real 1950s," said Dipper looking around at Gravity Falls.
"Have you hit your head bro?" Mable gestured at her poodle skirt. The Pacific Northwest look the town already had meant the buildings hadn't changed that much. Though things were definitely cheaper. Songs from the advent of Elvis' career played.
"We have Miss Greasy as the owner of Greasy's Diner. The sheriff and the deputy are together, which would be impossible twice over for obvious reasons in that decade. No one is freaked out over possibly being blown up by atomic bombs... it's like someone turned Gravity Falls into their idealized version of the past."
"I guess you're right, oh, and the church is a gift shop now."
"I KNOW THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!"

"Rainbow Dash and Lightning Dust sharing a grandchild."
Thanksgiving was always awkward for Light Dust, which sucks because I'm Light Dust. And not just because our counterparts from beyond the magic mirror were surprised Thanksgiving was the one Equestrian holiday that wasn't called something different in their own world. Thought I did learn in history class that a band of nutters had once tried to destroy every trace of the holiday and erase it from everyone's mind because the founder of Equestria after fighting off the Windigoes had been desperate ponies and had done desperate things to survive.
For me, it was awkward because of my grandmothers.
My dad's mother had met my grandfather in prison. They were both disgraced outcasts, and their options were limited anyway. And both saw dad was their only chance for a future. They REALLY wanted dad to succeed where they failed, well, more like not burn down everything they made for themselves.
My mom's mother had it

Owl House: A Stepford Story Part 1
Belos had been defeated, the Isles have been saved from the Draining Spell, but at a cost, freeing an ancient, yet childish Celestial, known to the People of the Isles as the Collector. King, the Last Titan, promised to play 'Owl House' with the small, God-like being. And that included getting everyone else involved.
"If we're gonna play Owl House, we're gonna need an Owl House!" That is when the Collector started to levitate in the air and parts of the Isles started to come apart and re-assemble as the Celestial saw fit. The kids watch in shock while Luz shields King from what is happening.
After EVERYTHING they've been through, they'd rather not be part of some other crazy person's wild, yet deadly game.
"We're gonna have a blast, everyone!" though they seemed oblivious to the horrific events that he might put the people through.
As the platform in front of her hovers away and she steps back, Willow looks back and immediately spots the portal door.
"I think there's a way out!"

Last night I got the news that Tony "Thick44" Schnur of the Neebs Gaming crew, passed away due to the brain cancer he had been fighting for the past two years. He leaves behind a family with two teenage daughters, his friends on Neebs Gamming, so many fans and supporters. For years he gave smiles with his voice acting in Battlefield Friends, his daring and sometimes reckless gameplay, great music he wrote, and kindness in giving the team in game loot. YouTube and the world has just lost a good man, but now he is in a place where he can tell cancer "You're nothing, you're nobody!" Here is some of the fan favorite moments of this good and funny man warrior.

I was nineteen, going community college in Elk Grove California. The night before all I was expecting to happen was the haircut I was going to get. When I woke up I found my Mom watching the news on TV. At first I didn't understand what happened, I thought when they said a plane crashed into one of the twin towers it was a small plane that some crashed by accident. Later things became clear that this was an attack by evil men, things had changed, I truly lived during an event in history I would clearly remember. Afterward the country came together over the years we put an end to Saddam and Bin Ladin two evil men who most agree the world is better of without. I graduated, volunteered, helped my family, and now I am thirty nine and in just a few short months all that hard work was ruined because of one man whose degrading faculties should have kept him off the the ballot and his staff. The hard work and lives lost to fight evil have come to that evil still existing. The moment we
June 4th 1989, over a million people most of them students had gathered for protests for seven weeks prior in Tiananmen Square China, demanding not to overthrow the Chinese Communist Party but for reform, only talking about democracy near the end. The party declared marshal law. The army forced the unarmed students to leave but as they were leaving and singing both the communist international and the Chinese national anthem the soldiers opened fired on the streets outside the square killing both protesters and innocent bystanders with some estimates saying the death toll reached ten thousand. They also ran them over with tanks!
Foreign reporters were were already in China to cover the meeting between the current leaders of China and Russia and were able to capture film and video of the Massacre. The Communist Party justified the army's actions calling the victims counter revolutionaries. The next day on June 5th people protested this horror including a man the world came to know s
