INTERVIEWER
Alright. Let’s start this off with something simple, just to get it on the record. What’s your name?GOODIE
I’m Goodie. Goodie McSriff, technically, but everyone knows me as Goodie from Bloodpool, or just Goodie Bloodpool. (She pauses.) Which is legally my name now, which I’m sure makes searching me specifically on the internet really fun. Sorry about that, everyone.INTERVIEWER
And is there anything people might recognize you from?GOODIE
I was the only survivor of the Bloodpool murders. Because I killed the serial killer with a blaseball bat. And then it turned out he wasn’t dead, and I had to kill him again after he broke into my apartment to get revenge six months later, and then I was really the only survivor of the Bloodpool murders. -

This is a body he hasn’t known since before the PODS. This is a body he had no say in leaving behind. This is a body that is his and is not his.
York doesn’t know he’s crying until he feels the heat on his face.
or: york silk backslides on his mental health recovery, because who ever put 'being eight years old again' in their twelve-step plan?

Summary
At least she herself was able to say that’s not me, that’s my name, that’s not me, I want to be something else. She doesn’t think Jessica has said that, or maybe even thought it to herself; who wouldn’t want to be Jessica Telephone? From the outside, wouldn’t it be a gift, to live a life so rich?
(Wouldn’t it be a gift, to be a splinter of a god who saw everything but never saw it coming? It always looks better from the outside.)
Jessica
Telephoneisn’t the only girl here who might as well be someone else’s ghost: or, what that looks like from another camera angle: or, hey, who decides what the real Ship of Theseus is, anyway?Series

Bookmarker's Notes
He is in his lizard form, basking in the sun's heat, when two little kunoichi catch him. The girls pet his pebbled skin, trace his ridges, and stroke his sharp claws. They shriek with laughter at the sight of his flickering tongue.
"We should keep him," the pink-haired one decides. Since she is warm, Shisui is not overly bothered by her suggestion.
"He's not very friendly," the other says dubiously. Shisui recognizes her as the Pig of the zodiac.

Summary
Kakashi keeps accepting Gai’s challenges because he likes to pretend that they still make a difference in the tally of their Eternal Rivalry. (Because, really, he knows that he’s already lost—Gai is too kind to bring up the worst challenge of them all.)

Bookmarker's Notes
“Oh, Tsunade-sama should know by now that nothing can keep Lee from his training!” Gai laughs, and gives Kakashi his nice-guy pose. “He's always eager to learn more taijutsu. Besides,” and for a moment a shadow drops across his face, of fleeting concern and worry, “he wants to work on how to better deal with sand jutsu. Just because he did not win against Gaara does not mean he gives up.”
Kakashi can't help but smile, and feels the fabric of his mask stretch along the curve of his mouth. This is what makes Gai Gai. He has never, ever been discouraged, nor has he ever lost his—oh god, he winces at the phrase, but really, there’s no other to describe Maito Gai—springtime of youth, indeed.

Bookmarker's Notes
Although it takes time (and it wears Gaara’s patience thin on his worst days), fixing the house proves to be satisfying. He goes to sleep every night with a sweet ache in his body, a numb pain he is not used to but that he welcomes gratefully.
He finds the situation ironic—he was raised to destroy, not to create. Yet here he is, building himself a home.

Summary
Orochimaru-sama comes to the Academy and asks for the student with the best calligraphy.
“Only the girls learn it,” Iruka-sensei says, and Orochimaru-sama clicks his tongue like he disapproves. “But we have several capable young kunoichi.”
Sakura has the highest marks in calligraphy, higher even than Ino-chan. She has good marks in their painting class, too, and any class that involves holding a pencil. She tells Orochimaru-sama this proudly.
“How wonderful,” he says, and she’s giddy with praise from the legendary war hero.
He wants to see her write, so she does. They go to Iruka-sensei’s desk and both her teacher and Orochimaru-sama watch her. Orochimaru-sama asks her to write smaller and smaller. She does. He praises her.
“Yes,” he says, “I think you’ll do.”

Bookmarker's Notes
The boy is dying again. Orochimaru-sama tsks and moves the eyes into another child from Root.
Sakura performs perfect eye transplants on pigs. They’re actually easier than the fish, since the eyes are bigger. But they have fewer pigs and thousands of fish, so if she was going to waste specimens practicing, it had to be the fish.

Summary
She's poisoned, maimed, sleep-deprived, delirious, starving, dehydrated, shot, beaten, and reeks to the high skies, and this is the best she's felt in three weeks. Steaks, smokes, and a terrifying babe.
"Wish those ninnies had had wine."
"Revolution is not a dinner party."

Bookmarker's Notes
It's not that Vriska Serket has never been deployed in a hot zone, or had to go on the run from a few dozen people who wanted to kill her and make a big sensationalist to-do about it, but this is something else entirely. This is the kind of thing that only happens to chicks in the blockbusters. The ones who wear lots of spandex and you can only see their spiky heels in the scenes where they're strutting.
