#& head canons ( tatum riley )

[mbav3rdseason]

Sometimes I like to think of silly little adventures the Scream gang use to get into before the events of Scream

[percentstardust]

tatum did not follow randy and sidney to windsor college. instead, she attended college in los angeles to get her culinary degree. she wanted to stay closer to home, mainly because of dewey. however, she would send them both letters and post cards.

when the killings started to happen again on their campus, she showed up to check on both of them alongside dewey. she got involved because of them. she returned to los angeles once she was sure sidney would be okay. in fact, she tried to convince sidney to transfer to a college there so they could be near each other.

Day 7 • Tatum Riley is a Lesbian!

Day 6 • Day 8

👇🏽 Pride Headcanons Below! 👇🏽

❤️•🧡•🤍•💗

Would totally have had a crush on Dionne from Clueless. She stands strongly by the statement that Cher would've been better off dating Dionne or even Tai ("Because who the fuck would want to date their brother, step-sibling or not?!"). She has also made Stu, Billy, and Sid watch the movie over and over again because she thinks Cher is hysterical.

I think we all know our girl has a massive crush on Sidney... But of course, because Sid is in a relationship with Billy, she can't tell her. So she does what any best friend would, offers support and always puts Sid's needs and comforts before her own

I think Tatum's love language is physical touch. She needs to be close to someone in order to form a connection with them. It doesn't matter if the relationship is platonic or not; She'll always sidle up next to a person she likes and hold their hand, or wrap her arms around their waist.

Unlike Sidney, Tatum is trusting person by nature. It's not hard to win her over, especially if you enjoy the same movies and music she does. On the flip side, if you fuck with anyone she cares about, she will not hesitate to cut you out of her life. She does not have the patience to deal with other people's bullshit, especially if Sidney or Stu is the target. This is why she fucking hates Gale Weathers.

Stu and Tatum are in a relationship because they are both gay and in love with someone that is unattainable, so the pretend to like each other in order to make their crushes jealous and notice them more. This is canon and you can't change my mind. We stan WLW 🤝🏻 MLM solidarity!!!

If Tatum had to pick a song to describe her sexuality, she'd pick: Head over Feet by Alanis Morisette

Was that [ABIGAIL COWEN]? Oh no no, that was just [TATUM RILEY], a [CANON CHARACTER] from [SCREAM]. They are [EIGHTEEN] years old, use [SHE/HER], and [ARE] aware that they are not actually from Washington DC. Too bad they can’t stray from this city for long.

how long has your character been here

tatum’s been here for about a three years, give or take a few months

what is your character’s job

she’s a college student , majoring in social work. she wants to be a victims advocate , and is currently working between different temp jobs but trying to get some intern work inside the court system within the city. 

where has your character been pulled from in their fandom

she’s pulled directly after said mr ghostface killed her

has any magic affected your character

nope, she’s still the same old tatum, just much less dead

and any other information you might find useful for us and the other members to know!!

starting off this with, i am unfortunately obsessed with the scream franchise and will ramble about every aspect of the first movie specifically but also the sequels after. also scream 5???????????????? many thoughts still. cannot wait for my head to BE SO FULL ABOUT SCREAM 6. anyways, i am just a little obsessed with tatum and her entire vibe throughout the movie, she’s so fucking iconic so anyways here’s me rambling about my girl

the younger sister of dewey riley, lifelong best friend of sidney prescott, girlfriend of stu macher.

truly the more carefree, over the top, bubbly bff to sidney’s sort of reserved personality.

has some of the best one liners in the movie please

literally coined the name ghostface thank you v much

is killed by billy but has no idea who was behind the mask. she personally still has no clue what really happened that night and she doesn’t like to think about it. tends to stay out of garages and doesn’t like being in locked rooms. deals with a lot of the trauma from it still but she tries to put it behind her

she’s got more important things going on than dwelling on what happened in woodsboro

is currently in college with an undeclared major, cause she’s debated between psychology, criminal justice, journalism, and just dropping out and going to cosmetology school. sort of all over the place with school right now as she still struggles with feeling like the life she lives right now is even real

has FINALLY settled on a major and a path in life. she is going to be a victims advocate, she wants to help people !! she wants to do good in this world !! she’s going to make something of herself in this next chance at life

has a decent social media presence and enjoys doing that as a hobby and would love if she could make some serious money off of it. 

takes self defense classes with buffy summers, and enjoys it a lot. happy to help people learn to defend themselves too

did punch billy loomis in the face and is still v proud of that (even if it gave him his memories back rip)

she’s the kind of person to absolutely hype you up but also tell you all the harsh truths you need to hear before someone who cares less about you tells you

would give you the shirt off of her back but also leave you on read if you asked her some question she thought was stupid

truly just trying to live her life right now, trying to put woodsboro behind her and just enjoy the life that she never got the chance to have

connections :

✩ roommate(s)

she has an apartment off campus and would love to have one or two roommates

truly open to anyone and everyone, they could get along, could hate each other, be absolute opposites or too alike it clashes, whatever you like friends !!!

✩ friends

just be her bud pls

she’s been here for a year, and is 100% a very sociable person, so she would reach out and try and make friends in either school or her jobs.

✩ past hookups/exes

she’s been here for a year, and definitely would have fallen down the path of ‘this will distract me’.

she’s bi but leans towards men

✩ classmates

just any college students??

tatum hasn’t decided her major at all yet so she’s just in like general classes for her degree instead of any focus yet, so would absolutely be down to run into just about anyone

✩ coworkers

she’s probably picked up a couple part time jobs in retail/waitressing so would be down to grab a connection that way!!

will eventually work in the court system so if anyone is in that line of work, she’ll be around!!

✩ emergency contact

listen, she definitely has like at least one friend she calls when she feels like something is wrong, someone she calls when she needs someone else around with her, just a shoulder to lean on when she gets stuck in those “i was murdered” headspaces

✩ self defense class friends

girl is one of the only people to fully fight off ghostface, like her and sid kicked both of their asses, she knows how to fight and definitely kept it up in the city

[billys-lover]

[slasherscream]

hey, i was wondering if you could do a tatum x reader x sidney head canon but in a platonic way? i love these ladies but i daydreaming constantly about how amazing it would be to be besfriends with them, love it if you could do it with black fem!reader also love your blog, you’re such a lovely person ❤️

A/N: *insert me too?? the fuck. gif* you are the most valid person on earth-

   sidney prescott x black!reader x tatum rileyft. platonic best friends ! platonic best friends !

                                                     ——————– 

There’s a certain point of popularity that you reach where you no longer actively look for new friends because people are typically just trying to get close to you for some hot gossip or a boost on the social ladder. Tatum and Sidney have long since reached this point of popularity.

Even if they hadn’t who needs a ton of friends when you have friends of quality? They’re best friends for life. Really and truly, and not just in name.

There’s an exception to every rule of course and their exception happened to be you. You came along and changed everything. 

A few hang-outs a week and sitting together at lunch become running up phone bills and dragging you along everywhere they go no matter what they’re about to get up to. 

Going to all of Tatum’s soccer games and cheering for her louder than anyone else. For a really important game you painted your face the team’s colors. It’s that serious.

Tatum laughed till she cried when she saw you but no one’s ever taken her playing sports that seriously before (she’s a girl playing on girl teams against other girl teams, isn’t she? what’s to take serious about that?). She keeps a picture of you two on her dresser of that first time. You, with your pretty brown face painted blue and yellow, her team’s colors; and her, sweaty but triumphant and with an arm wrapped proudly around your shoulders. It’s one of her favorite pictures. 

Sidney loves having deep conversations or long, understanding silences. Both of which she can’t always get from Tatum. Whenever you provide her with either you can see the effect your company has on her. Her face goes soft with released tension and her smiles come easily the rest of the day. 

Shopping with them is an ordeal. It’s super fun but it takes forever because they (mostly Tatum) never want to stop. You and Sidney can coax her away from a sale only with the promise of a cinnamon bun from the food-court.

If Tatum picks something out for you it will look good. She knows what colors your skin pops in? Knows what brings out all your best features? Knows your size by heart and can figure out what that translates to in every brand known to man (why don’t women’s clothes have sizes that make sense? we’ll never know!) 

Sidney picks her outfits without fanfare (or help        “thanks but no thanks, tatum”) but is perfectly happy to hype the two of you up for the fashion show Tatum makes you put on. You’ve all shared many laughter and fashion filled afternoons.

Watching movies together and coming up with some ridiculous thing you’d do for an actor/actress you think is cute.              tatum: to kiss winona ryder i’d drink …. the hottest lava on earth              you: and with what lips would you kiss her with post lava?               sidney: and since when has there been cold lava?               tatum: fuck you both-

Tatum carries around a foundation that’s your exact shade for any make-up emergencies you might have. A make-up emergency is serious business and for her to do this is the equivalent of carrying around an epipen for someone with severe allergies. That’s love bitch! 

Sidney is a hugger but she didn’t know how much of her physical affection quota she got from her Mom until her Mom was gone. She didn’t realize she kept physical contact to a select (trusted) few until then because she got all the affection she needed at home. 

You give her a long hug after a rough day of reporters and gossips and she bursts into tears. Now whenever she looks on edge you come up behind her and just wrap your arms around her. She always melts into it. She’s literally this post.

It’s such a little thing but it means the world to her that you know she needs it and you always give it to her without her ever asking. When you have sleepovers she curls up close to you long before you two actually intend to sleep.

She asked you the first time if you minded how close she was but when you only pulled her closer and commented on the room being kinda chilly she grinned at you. Whenever either of you is feeling extra cuddly all you have to say is “I’m a little chilly.” and the other will drape themselves around you like a cloak. 

You three look out for each other viciously at parties. One time a boy you didn’t know came up to you with a drink and Tatum gave him a look that could have melted the skin from his bones. Sidney had to tell him to beat it before Tatum beat him. 

One time you guys turned on one of those bridezilla shows because you were bored and it caused Tatum to ask the brilliant question of “who’s gonna be who’s maid of honor?”……dear god-

If the answer from either of you isn’t her she will lose her mind and have a bitch fit!

“You want to be the maid of honor at both our weddings?” “Uhm —- yeah. Duh.” “Y/N, will you be my maid of honor just because of this?” “Sid I would be honored. Would you do me the honor of being mine?” “You joke now but you’ll see who’s laughing when neither of you lame-asses knows where to get a stripper-”

Tatum learned how to braid your hair because she didn’t think it was fair that you’d always help her get ready like a pro but she could never do much for you. Her favorite thing to do is two long french braids. She started just braiding your hair in general when she learned how much it cost to get it done. That’s money you could be spending on shopping trips with her??? 

The girl’s soccer team got underfunded one year and you and Sidney got together and did bake sales, car washes — anything you could think of to help. You got the whole school behind you two because you were so passionate. With everyone pitching in and helping the girl’s team wound up with better funding than the boys that year. 

You three wind up at the same college together and you get a cheap little apartment you can all afford and live together for the longest time. 

Heartbreaks and finals. Surviving on ramen until Sidney picks up a coupon hunting hobby so you don’t all die from malnutrition. Tatum flirting with the neighbors so they’ll carry your things for you while you try not to laugh when it works every time. Studying hard with Sidney and being grateful and exasperated when Tatum makes the two of you party even harder.

All the holidays spent together because you can’t make it back to Woodsboro in time but you start new traditions with one another that mean more than you can say. 

You’re away from home but rarely get home sick. It makes sense, really. You guys brought the most important parts of home with you: each other.

Scream (1997) Review

Scream is possibly my favourite horror film of all time. The Scream franchise is the only horror franchise in which I have tuned into every instalment doesn’t matter how panned by critics it was. The film is incredibly self-aware of what it is… a teen slasher flick. With commentary on slashers of Halloweens past, such as Drew Barrymore’s character Casey dissing the sequels to director Wes Craven’s past horror creation the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise.  Then close to the final bloodbath Randy Meeks whilst watching John Carpenter’s Halloween states the “rules” of a slasher picture. All of these rules are broken and ends with a single character dying. Rule number one: don’t have sex is broken by the ‘final girl’ Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) when she ‘does it’ with knockoff Johnny Depp, Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) who set the trap so she would break the rule so he could stick to his beloved films and get revenge. But, Sidney is smart and eventually beats Billy and Stu and survives. The second rule of not drinking is broken by literally everyone and out of the mass amounts of people at Stu’s party, only a handful of the underage drinkers died. The third rule was tragically broken by Tatum Riley (Rose McGowan) when she goes to get some beers and will “be right back” and is eventually slaughtered by Ghostface in one of the most gruesome movie deaths ever. At the very end when Sid has defeated Ghostface and Randy says “this is when the killer comes back to life for one final scare” when Billy pops back up and Sidney shoots him in the head which has become a canon token of the franchise. Wes Craven through the self-aware nature of these “rules” sold Scream to fans, critics and sceptics (possibly Sidney Prescott) around the world through his unique take instead of milking the dead cow with a new A Nightmare on Elm Street film. Through directing, concept, setting and use of Red Right Hand by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Scream is a definitive movie of the 90’s and overall movie history beyond horror.

Scare and Overall Rating out of 10:

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 ½ 

[percentstardust]

tatum is the girlfriend who will steal your clothes and never give them back. that’s your hoodie or sweater? she thinks the fuck not. it’s hers now.

[percentstardust]

tatum was able to escape through the pet door. she tried to find dewey since he’s a cop and all, but she couldn’t find him. so, she ran to the closest place to get help. she could have warned everyone but she was a scared teenager who was almost killed. this is how tatum survived.

[percentstardust]

dewey got his iconic nickname from tatum. tatum could not properly pronounce dwight for the longest time as a child and she took it upon herself to call him dewey. the nickname stuck and everyone else took to calling him that.
