STEVIE NASH

so i have some personal thoughts or headcanons and the like i wanted to share about our girl stevie nash and i was keen to hear some of your guys’ thoughts, even if you don’t agree, though if you don’t please be kind about it.

primarily i think i wanna talk about my main two in this post.

first of all i think stevie may also have autism, at least i headcanon her that way anyway. i am autistic myself, so it’s self projection to an extent i know, but i do see some of the traits i have in her, and traits of others i know too. i did mention my personal autistic stevie hc in a comment section on tiktok and got rinsed for it which was a bit sad. the general gist was “stevie’s not autistic, she can’t be. she’s just very _____ & so _____” i didn’t bother to point out that what they were describing were indeed often strong indicators of autism or other neurodifferences, because why bother with people who get combative over a difference of opinion lmao so anyways..

secondly, i feel that she gives off very sapphic vibes, some of the women i ship stevie with/could also see it are:

faith cadogan

jodie whyte

rida amaan

nicole piper

ngozi okoye

jac naylor (yes i know she’s dead rip)

zosia march (yes i know she left holby)

sahira shah (yes i know she left too)

any polyamorous combination of the above

Hecate Hardbroom - The Worst Witch (2017-2020)

Melisha Tweedy - Chicken Run (2000) / Dawn of the Nugget (2023)

Frieda Petrenko - Holby City (1999-2022)

Appreciation for three iconic characters, all with black hair, and an iconic bun.

the Holby rewatch has devolved into a drunk Holby rewatch but am I reading into it too much or did they really foreshadow the stuff with Roxanna and Henrik and John quite a lot in earlier series 20?

[queermediacollector]

Anyone know of any other places I can watch holby. The one drive link has most episodes but a few are missing and some have no audio

[thetrashqueeeen]

Hey so I’m back on my bullshit but people often give love the way they would also like to receive it so when Faith ‘had cancer’ and Stevie started helping her out more and then when it came out she was an addict and Stevie moved in to support her we can reasonably assume when Stevie was having her public and protracted breakdown she wanted someone to come in and help take care of her and actually all that happened was she sat in her flat and cried alone. Have fun with that!😀

[maraudersmary]

anyone who watches casualty:

firstly are they gonna go down an autism route with dylan - i really hope so it’s about time

secondly does anyone else want ngozi and nicole to kiss xoxox

also can we get another holby character down to the ed please bernie could turn that place around in an instant (for selfish reasons i just need her on my screen again)

Love how soaps have like…marquee disaster episodes. Like, Corrie tram crash, Casualty helicopter crash, Emmerdale plane crash (????)…it’s like a rule you GOTTA have some massive disaster happen.

hello berena fandom if you're interested:

I had an idea for a college au (uni) where berena met at albies and serena became an honourary flatmate to bernie raf and fletch (in this world she lives at home, with adrienne). It would be a slow bern, the kind where it's a friendship with blurred lines, that ties in some of the canon but I'm not sure how much yet. The issue is that I really love berena but have not seen holby city, and as such am worried about continuity and character relationships and behaviours and such. therefore I have been working on an angsty little one-shot within this world but focusing on just the two of them, which I will post a bit of below the cut. Was just wondering if anyone with better knowledge of the wider context of the show would like to pick my brain on this idea/ work off of it/ some third option? If so do let me know! Also let me know if I should finish the one shot? (It may also be good daydreaming/headcannon material, idk)

...

"H-Hello?"

"Hi? Serena, it's Bernie. You... you called me? Oh shit was it a pocket-dial, have I woken you up?"

"Um...no, I-I meant to call you. I hoped you'd be up, but when you didn't answer I thought maybe-"

"I'm up, sorry, my phone was on silent. What's up, are you okay?" Bernie could hear shaky breathing on the other end of the line.

"Um... well... no, not really."

"Shit, 'Rena, has something happened?! Are you hurt??"

The pause that followed made Bernie's heart drop to her stomach.

"Can you let me in? I'm outside the flat."

Bernie instantly put down her plate and rushed (quietly so as not to wake anyone( to the door, hanging up as she reached it. Pulling it open revealed a shivering Serena sat on the doorstep, arms crossed around herself. Upon seeing Bernie, she began to speak, in a harsh voice. "I'm sorry, I didn't know where else to go." To Bernie's horror she began to cry silently, tears spilling down her cheeks. She dropped to her knees and took Serena's cold face in her hands, thumbs stroking her cheeks as her eyes roamed her body, searching for any visible injuries. Upon finding none, she straightened up, holding out a hand to get the other woman up, helping her to her feet and leading her back into the communal kitchen.

Bernie didn't let go of Serena's hand until they were both sitting on the sofa, facing each other. She desperately wanted to ask what the matter was, but Serena's body language was telling her not to push. The other woman was slightly hunched over where she sat, her back not touching the sofa, as though she were afraid of taking up space, something Bernie had never seen from her before. Serena was wringing her hands in her lap, something Bernie had only seen her do when approached by creepy guys in bars, something that unfortunately happened quite regularly. Well, of course they would want her, Serena was gorgeous. Even with eyes red from crying Bernie still found her the most beautiful woman she had ever met.

"I don't want to go home tonight."

Serena's voice was gravely, and as she spoke she seemed to shrink impossibility further into herself. Bernie couldn't help it: she felt an intense need to comfort her best friend, and reached out to rub her shoulder in an attempt to convey support. The second her palm met the fabric of Serena's top, she let out a small yelp and flinched away. It was a sound of pain, not discomfort, and Bernie was immediately back on red alert. She motioned for Serena to turn so she was facing away from her on the sofa, and as she did so Bernie couldn't contain her gasp at the spots of blood that had seeped through the thin material of her shirt. Serena spun back, refusing to make eye contact, her head lowered. "It's not as bad as it probably looks."

"Serena, who did this to you?"

"I can't, Bern. Please."

"Serena's tone was pleading, and as she spoke she made direct eye contact with Bernie. That, combined with the pet name, signaled her earnestness.

"Okay. We won't talk about it right now. But will you let me look at that for you? I'm not exactly a doctor but I want to help."

Holby-Verse Plotline Tournament!

hello! ive been wanting to do a poll for ages, and i haven't seen any casualty ones so i thought why not make one!! this tournament is a showdown of plotlines from the shows to find the best/most important/favourite! see bottom of this post for the submission form!

rules:

plotlines can be from any holby-verse show, be it holby city, casualty, and any of the spin offs or cross-overs!

the plotlines can be as long or short, popular or obscure as you like, affecting just one, or multiple characters. i think shows like holby and casualty are very plotline driven so most things would fit, but i think for this, a plotline would need to be at least 1 episode long (or the subject of an entire episode), with one or more of the regular or semi-regular characters (for that era of the show) involved.

plotlines can be submitted based on how much you like them, how important you think they were, the impact they had on characters, etc.

please don't spam the form with the same plotline! the same plotline can be submitted by different people, and the same person can submit multiple plotlines, but not the same plotline by the same person please!

i think there will be 128 entries, but we'll see how it goes!

entries will be selected by whichever submissions make it in before i close the form

propaganda will be allowed once the tournament starts but please be nice!

these rules may change a bit and more may be added once i figure out how running a tournament works, but i will try to keep any changes reasonable, and will try to post them to see what people think before changing them

once polls start, ill figure out a tag system that can be used to track polls, results, propaganda, and miscellaneous things which, when created can be found here.

submission form:

Frieda Petrenko in Holby City, Series 19, Episode 63: We Need to Talk About Fredrik

'I went to St Francis because there are... ghosts here I wanted to avoid.'

One of my favourite Holby episodes, I miss this show, and I wish it got more mainstream recognition.

[kerryweaverlesbian]

The Supernatural fake Facebook is called PALZ!!! I love this kind of thing.
