Each forehead kiss is a whisper of 'forever' against the skin.

I can't thank the loveliest and amazing @cashweasel enough for this sketch of my Thomas and Alex! I absolutely love how soft and tender it came out. It truly captures the warmth of their love for one another. 💖💖💖

[cherealta]

I've gone back into an huge high school story hyperfix for No apparent reason for this past month and half so i decide to make a new tumblr! it's been a while since i've been in an fandom space so i decide to stick to an more niche(? i guess) fandom with not so many people still here as it's not as overwhelming for me.

these girls have been with me since 2013 and 2014 respectively with many many different changes! however their core characteristics have stayed the same.

(more info under the cut!)

i was planning on drawing them about a week ago buuut my drawing tablet has decided to die on me and my only drawings of them are from <2022. which isn't ideal. then i remembered a few days ago i can just create them on sims, so for the time being i'll use ts4 as a way to visualize them until i get a new tablet!

a little brief introduction to them -

vivienne is my high school story prime mc and she transfers over to berry high in her sophomore year. bc of this the timeline is a bit different to the canon one (especially since the choices games are canon to the original timeline) as in my tl hss prime takes course from her sophomore to senior year (there's NO way all the stuff that happens in hssp happens in one year!!! pixelberry u can not convince me otherwises!!!). side confession but despite hss/hwu being an defining part of me i've never touched choices... which means i've just never considered were those games would fit into my timeline. so i guess i'd consider my tl an au.

agnieszka or angel is my hollywood u mc who i miss dearly and i'll forever be torn up by the fact that hwu is unplayable now. she's vivienne half sister (vivi is a product of affair. there's A LOT of lore that i'll hopefully go into in later posts) and the two aren't aware of eachothers existence until around 2010. despite this angel loves the fact she has an younger sister, even in unconventional circumstances, and wishes to grow closer to her. vivienne is hesitant at first but by 2018ish they have a very good relationship!! sure it takes a while but the two had to overcome a lot when it comes to their family.

for the years vivienne starts berry high in 2013 and agnieszka starts hwu in 2014 (basically when the games came out). they don't start having an consistent relationship until about mid-to-late 2015.

also this is my first time doing character sheets that aren't heavily drawn so hopefully they aren't too hard to read/understand. this is all i'll say for now as i don't want this post to get too long! i'll drop more info abt them as this month goes by.

a small intro post

Hi there! I wanted to try to come back to this side of the PB fandom after a long time in other places.

I'm Alli (she/they). I've been a part of the PB fandom since Hollywood U launched back in 2014, but the last time I was part of the Tumblr side of the fandom was sometime in 2018, I believe.

I'm really excited to be back here again! I have some fanfics and some other ramblings on my MCs/OCs and my version of the PBverse that I'll be posting soon. Thanks for reading, and I can't wait to get to know you guys!

Direction – Thirty-Two | Hunt x HWU MC (Danielle)

Summary: After finding out that footage of their kiss is all over the internet, Danielle and Thomas see for themselves what damage has been done. Separately.

Words: 1100+

❥ Previous Chapter: Thirty-One ❥ Moodyvalentine’s Masterlist

It was not a blurry photo shot with a phone from far away like Danielle would have suspected. In fact, what was attached to the article Chris was showing her on his phone was not a photo at all but an entire video that revealed much more than a simple photograph would have. Danielle watched it a second time and then a third. She’d felt, in the moment, that the kiss had been much too short but, according to what she saw on the screen now, it had lasted a lot longer than she’d thought. After her fourth watch, Danielle finally scrolled past the video to read the article.

EXCLUSIVE FOOTAGE! Actress Danielle Allen and director Thomas Hunt seen kissing passionately on the set of their new movie! Could this be the reason Hunt is back in the director’s chair after so many years?

She scrolled further down and, oh yes, it was bad. Below the first lines of text, there was the photograph of her and Hunt at Sundance, which certainly looked a lot worse now. He had only put his hand on her shoulder when he’d given her some advice about the situation with Anders Stone, and everyone had simply thought it was just a professor who was proud of his student’s achievements, but now…

Danielle knew the next few lines would be speculation about whether something had happened when she’d still been his student, and she was right. The next words were very much not kind towards Hunt, and she really wished she could talk to him right now. But he said he needed time, and considering his life may have just been ruined, Danielle was going to respect that.

“Look, this sucks right now, but we both know what they’re saying there isn’t true. And since there’s no evidence, this might just blow over,” Chris tried to console her.

Danielle cringed. “I’m not so sure about that.”

“What do you mean? We were together when you were at HWU, you wouldn’t have—”

“Oh, no, God, no!” she interrupted him. He was still watching her skeptically, and she sighed. “I never cheated on you, Chris, and certainly not with Hunt.”

Chris visibly relaxed at that. “So what is there to worry about?”

She really had no choice but to come clean about the entire thing now, did she? “Montmartre. We have worry Montmartre to worry about.” He gave her a puzzled look, and Danielle continued, “He’s been blackmailing me, and Hunt, too. There are some… pictures that look like we were closer than we really were, and… especially with this now…”

“Shit.”

“Yes. Shit.”

As if the TMZ article hadn’t been bad enough, Thomas decided to subject himself to something infinitely worse – he opened Twitter for the first time in a few months to see just how much damage this had already done. He was, unfortunately, not at all surprised to see that both of their names were trending. It did not escape his notice that Danielle’s name was higher on the list of trends than his own, but his dwindling prominence was an issue for another day. Thomas sighed, then closed the app before looking at any of the tweets. He did not need to do that to himself today.

As soon as he was ready to put his phone aside for the time being, another call came through. This time, it was his publicist. Thomas was almost scared to answer the call – now, he would have to come clean about the images that were still out there and could turn this entire thing into even more of a PR nightmare than it already was.

“Hello Lena, I’m—”

She immediately interrupted him. “Is it true?”

“What do you think?”

Lena sighed on the other end of the line. “Did you or did you not have a sexual relationship with one of your students?”

“Of course not!” he exclaimed, feeling rather offended that she would even consider that a possibility. “This is... not what it looks like.”

“Well, Thomas, unfortunately it is my job to be concerned with what things look like, so we’ve got a bit of a problem here.”

“I can see that.” He swallowed hard. “And you’re not going to like what I’m about to tell you.”

“Save your breath, I already know about your little problem with Viktor Montmartre.”

“How—”

“I’ve contacted Danielle Allen’s team before calling you and, clearly, she’s got a lot more sense than you do and actually talks to the people trying to protect her image.”

So much for Danielle not talking to anyone about this. But, he supposed, the people she surrounded herself with professionally had always been trustworthy – Montmartre notwithstanding. “I was handling it.”

“Oh, I’m sure you were,” Lena said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “You better be thankful the girl seems to have a soft spot for you.”

Thomas furrowed his brow. “What do you mean?”

“She went against the wishes of her team when she went along with the blackmail. Obviously, she was advised to release what she had because, and I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that, she’s got a lot less to lose than you do. And from what I’ve heard, there’s no reason she shouldn’t have done that.”

So much for her team being trustworthy. He couldn’t fault them, though. To an outsider, the way he’d treated her up until a few days ago would certainly warrant not being all too considerate towards him. In fact, had their roles been reversed, he wasn’t sure he wouldn’t have taken the easy way out.

Thomas should probably go speak to her. For what felt like the millionth time by now, he told himself it was not solely her fault this was happening, even if it might be less damaging to her career than to his.

“Look, I’m going to keep working with her team and try to figure out how to handle this situation,” Lena said when Thomas didn’t react to her last statement. “Stay off of social media for now, and don’t talk to anyone. If you deny now, and the other material comes out, it’s going to look so much worse for you. I’ll be in touch.”

Just when Danielle got off the call with Ethan, who had informed her of the PR strategy her team had come up with so far – which consisted of her and Hunt keeping their fucking mouths shut – there was a knock on the door. Chris went to open it, and Danielle was surprised to see Hunt standing there. Even bigger was her surprise when he spoke.

“I believe we still have some important matters to discuss.”

Love & Scotch: dx: Friendship & New Beginnings

Masterlists: [Thomas Hunt x Alex Spencer] || [Ethan Ramsey x Ellie Shepherd] || [Love & Scotch Crossover]

Characters: Thomas Hunt (HWU), Ethan Ramsey (OpH) Pairings (mentioned only): Thomas x Alex ; Ethan x Ellie Book: HollywoodU + Open Heart Word Count: ~650 Synopsis: Hunt and Ethan share a drink before Hunt's wedding.

Series Background:This takes place in my Hollywood U AU. Alex and Thomas are engaged. Ethan is an old friend whom the couple reconnected with. Alex is the biggest shipper of Ethan and Ellie(MC), and is thrilled Ethan finally took  her advice to do something about his feelings. [Catch up on Love and Scotch]

Chapter Background: This takes place after dx: healing, as well as after Ellie has her PTSD better managed.

The famed Hollywood director stared at the amber liquid in his tumbler, watching as the light enhanced the brilliant color in the glass, causing a beautiful glow. His attention shifted to the esteemed doctor beside him as he slowly sipped his drink. "Thank you for being here, Ramsey. I appreciate you flying out again. It means a lot to have a drink with you before tomorrow."

"It's the least I can do. Your friendship has meant a lot, even more so recently, with all that has happened," Ethan replied thoughtfully. "I'm not sure we would have gotten through the attack without you and Alex there." His voice trailed away as a shiver racked his spine, reminding him of that dreadful day. He tried to brush the thought away. "Plus, I could never turn down an opportunity to enjoy some of your top-shelf scotch." He lifted his glass of the 60-year-old Macallan toward Hunt. "To your last night as a bachelor."

Hunt reciprocated the gesture, lifting his glass toward his friend's before taking another sip. The corner of his lips pulled into a subtle smile. The creases around his eyes told of the joy he felt inside. It was a look he couldn't seem to shake recently, no matter how much he tried.

It wasn't that he hadn't seen his friend happy before, but Ethan knew this was different. This was something deeper, something true, and something that would last a lifetime. He felt his own heart quicken in his chest at the notion. He tried to shake it away; could he really be considering it? He turned his focus back toward his friend, hoping to focus on his upcoming wedding instead. "Can't believe you're getting married tomorrow, Hunt." He shook his head, still in mild disbelief. "I never thought I'd see the day."

Hunt stifled a soft chuckle, bliss filling his every feature. "Nor did I." He let the moment linger as he reflected before continuing. "Isn't it something, how one person can change the entire direction of your life in a way you never anticipated, and yet, somehow, it becomes the best thing for which you could hope."

"Yeah," the doctor nodded thoughtfully in consideration. "I suppose it happens when you aren't looking and when you least expect it."

"It appears to be as such," Hunt paused, offering his friend a knowing look. "I trust you feel the same."

His brow rose a moment as he pondered the question. It was a question that had been on his mind a lot lately. Not that it hadn't been a flicker in his mind earlier, but the attack changed everything. "I suppose I must," he relented. "But that's for another day. This weekend is about you!"

"Unless it could be more than that," Hunt suggested.

"And take away from your day?" Ethan shook his head, hoping to put the conversation to an end.

"Alex would find it as more adding to the merriment." He brought the honeyed liquid to his lips, savoring the taste. "In fact, she might consider it the best wedding present."

Ethan contemplated his words. It wasn't the first time he had considered it. It was something he had thought increasingly about, but was she ready? Was he? Was now the right time? She'd been through so much. His thoughts drifted to the velvet ring box buried in his suitcase. He had no plans when he packed it, yet he felt the need to bring it. But what if she said no? He couldn't ruin Hunt's special day. He shook away the thought. It wasn't the right time. This was about Thomas and Alex, not them.

The pair relaxed comfortably, sinking further into the lounge chair, savoring the top-shelf liquor. They sat in a comfortable silence, relishing the warmth in their chest—a warmth that went deeper than the drink in their hands.

A/N: I wanted to write a longer fic but my brain is still working on getting over it's writer's block so this is all I've got, but I still am happy to have ANYTHING for this series since it's been on hiatus for so so long!

I hope you enjoyed this fun little look at Ethan and Hunt's friendship!

character masterlist

Hi, everyone! I decided that I was going to make a Google Doc for all of my PB characters as I post them! You can check it out here! It'll serve as the most up-to-date place for my characters, though I'll still make more posts for them like I've been doing.

[dizzy-pixels]

I always picked being an actor for my MC in HWU but with how the main story goes...I wonder if she should've just been a director?
