Jake Gyllenhaal In Prisoners (2013)

PRISONERS (2013) dir. Denis Villeneuve

still the bone remembers

A month after France and Frank Harkness, Slough House is floundering beneath the weight of grief none of them quite know how to deal with. Fortunately, Catherine has returned, and she’s determined to fix things — starting with River, who’s carrying a secret that’s affecting how he acts both with her and with Lamb — until she and River are kidnapped from Slough House by a group of former slow horses that have a very serious bone to pick with Jackson Lamb. It will be fine. Catherine knows that Lamb will come for River, and River knows that Lamb will come for Catherine, and until he does they simply have to keep the other alive long enough to be found. But what they’re not expecting is that these former slow horses don’t just want to hurt Lamb; they want to break River, and force Lamb to watch it happen. But the former slow horses have made a significant error of judgement. Because with every recording they send of River’s torture, the more determined Lamb becomes to rescue his boy, and when he finally does get River and Catherine back he is never going to let them go. It’ll be a long, difficult road to recovery, but they’ll walk it together, all three of them.

or: the camcorder kidnapping fic, at last

read it here on ao3!

This one is "Lately I've Been Good (You Know I've Actually Been Great)" By carpediaz on AO3.

@sofa-king-lame I did the first one so of course I had to do this one!

This series is just so cute, I love how Buck and Eddie are, this is gonna end up being one of my go-to comfort reads!

I used the same graphics and layout from the first one so they look like a set!

After much painstaking, dedicated research, I present my findings on

The Alex Rider vs. River Cartwright Blonde British Spy Venn Diagram.

These two are basically the same. I couldn't even use circles bc it's almost all overlap. Anything else you'd add?

yet again combing the depths of my inbox for My Purposes....... in this case, sharing a bit from camcorder kidnapping! :)

As if he’s heard her and is determined to make her life that bit more difficult, River says, “You don’t get many guests around here, do you?” For fuck’s sake. Catherine thinks the words but they have the rough abrasion of Lamb’s voice in her head, which is equally as annoying as whatever it is River thinks he’s doing but for a different reason entirely, and she’s so frustrated by the both of them that she doesn’t notice the fist until it’s already made impact with River’s stomach. It startles out of her: “River!” in this horrible, pitched shriek that is lost amidst the sound of River wheezing where he’s bent double, curled around his stomach.  “I told you,” the man says, shaking out his hand with a chilling calm, “you shouldn’t have done that, brat. I also—” He grasps River by the hair and jerks him up, and then his free hand curls again into a fist and hurtles towards River’s spleen “—told you to keep that pretty little mouth shut.” River’s knees give out at the second hit, but the man doesn’t release him. “Guess you haven’t done your research,” he slurs, stupid and taunting and too brave by half. “M’no good at following orders.”
