I already can't wait until Showed Me pt 2! 🙌🏿 But I'm intrigued by Area Code and National Anthem. Could you give us a little him about those...? 👀👀

👉🏾👈🏾 I'll try my best to post part 2 by the end of next week.

Area Code: In which you are Monaco's new It Girl and you have every man around you at your beck and call. (MS47 x Student Black! Reader)

National Anthem: In which Y/N is tired of driver's empty promises. (Either MV1 or LH44 x Wife Black! Reader)

Thank you so much for the ask 🥹🫶🏾. I'll re-reply to this with a snippet of each when I start writing them 😘

[And they've got one named after both the airport and the area code that's getting its Guam on. It's the only place that has Guamanian food that I know of. SABLAN: Fried shrimp fritters. Done. The shrimp fritters are very unique.]

So I was rewatching 5x13 and I saw something interesting during Eddie’s breakdown.

This is the scene where Eddie goes to call Mills. The area code for Mills’ phone number is 818 —Los Angeles.

Would it be safe to assume Mills lived in LA too? If so, I can’t even begin to imagine the guilt Eddie must feel—knowing he lived in the same city/county and didn’t reach out, even just to say “hi.” Living in the same city and not finding out about her death until months later.

I also looked up the meaning behind the number 818. As an angel number, it symbolizes the start of a new chapter in your life.

“Angel number 818 tells you that it is time for a change. Certain things in your life have become a burden and you need to let go of them, if you want to be happy. Perhaps you are convincing yourself that everything is okay and that you don’t need to change something fast.”

November 10th is...

Area Code Day -  Area Codes first came into existence in the 1940’s in the laboratories of AT&T and Bell, slowly but surely this idea was expanded on and developed until it finally went into effect in 1947. It was called the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) and would solve the issue of not enough phone numbers for both the USA and Canada.

Forget-Me-Not Day - Reminds Americans of the sacrifices returning soldiers have made of body, blood, and limb. Created in 1921, the day reminds Americans that National Forget-Me-Not Day originally raised funds for services for returning injured soldiers. At the time, the existing hospitals were insufficient to support the numbers of returning disabled veterans. The day serves to honor all past and current United States Military veterans who bear the permanent scars of battle. 

International Pathology Day -  Pathology is a branch of medicine that is concerned with the cause and nature of disease. A doctor who specializes in this area of medicine is called a pathologist. They examine various parts of the body to diagnose a disease. Some of the parts of the body they study include tissues, organs, and bodily fluids. Pathologists also perform autopsies to help determine the cause of death.

Marine Corps Birthday -  The United States Marine Corps, a branch of the United States Armed Forces, is responsible for providing power protection from the sea. They use the mobility of the United States Navy to deliver combined-arms task forces rapidly. The Continental Congress first established the Continental Marines on November 10, 1775, leading up to the American Revolution. Two battalions of Marines fought for independence both on land and at sea.

Sesame Street Day - Beginning in 1969 in the United States, Sesame Street is a creation of the Children’s Television Workshop (CTW), which is broadcast on the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). It’s an educational series that combines live actors with animation as well as special puppets by Jim Henson, known as “Muppets”. Many of the recurring characters have remained with the show for many years, particularly Kermit the Frog, friends Ernie and Bert, Big Bird and Cookie Monster. Through short vignettes, songs, skits and cameo appearances, the show seeks to create educational opportunities for children of all ages by fostering learning, engaging their minds, building social skills, promoting self-esteem and offering basic academic skills.

Top Up Day - This day has been designed to celebrate people who give top ups. This typically relates to the global expat community who will support their families back home. Without this event, these people aren’t recognized. A big segment of the expat community has celebrated Top Up Day since it was first launched in 2015. On this day, a lot of expats will get together on the Internet, irrespective of their nationality or where they are based.

Vanilla Cupcake Day -  Cupcakes can be traced back to 1796 when a recipe notation for a cake to be baked in small cups was written in American Cookery (by Amelia Simmons).  The earliest known documentation of the term cupcake was in 1828 in Seventy-five Receipts for Pastry, Cakes, and Sweetmeats in Eliza Leslie’s Receipts cookbook.

World NET Cancer Day -  Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are cancers that begin in neuroendocrine cells. These cells are similar to nerve cells as they send or receive messages within the nervous system. These specialized cells also work like hormones. Neuroendocrine tumors occur in certain parts of the body, such as the lungs, appendix, rectum, small intestine, and pancreas. Some tumors grow slowly and others more quickly. Common symptoms include pain, lumps under the skin, fatigue, and weight loss.  Because these symptoms are similar to other illnesses, it is difficult to diagnose neuroendocrine tumors or NET cancer. Over 90 percent of all NET patients receive incorrect diagnoses. Initially, these patients get treated for the wrong disease. It’s not uncommon for NET patients to go up to 7 years with incorrect treatment. When doctors finally diagnose the disease correctly, the cancer has usually spread to other parts of the body. For these reasons, NET cancer awareness is of utmost importance.

World Science Day For Peace And Development - Highlights the impact that science has on our society and our daily lives. When one thinks of science, they probably think of conducting experiments, testing hypotheses, and making predictions about the universe. Science is also about gaining knowledge about the world we live in.
