#Is this how Amanda feels?

[manufactoredxbyxdesign]

Carefully, and slowly... she climbs on a log and reaches out and boops his nose and fully prepares to run away if she needs to.

He doesn't say anything, but it's fairly obvious by the glare from behind his sunglasses that he did not like that.

Another thing that haunts me about this entire thing is that Amanda wasn’t just funny like her coworkers, or funny like other Disney and Nickelodeon actresses. Amanda Bynes was funny like Carol Burnett. Funny like Lucille Ball. She was effervescent and classic. Her comedic sensibilities were deeply intelligent. She had *it*. And she should have grown into one of the best actresses of our generation. But *something* happened and derailed it all. Even if she’s not the same, I truly hope she’s well and happy. I want nothing but the best for her, even if it’s a quiet and private life. I adored her back then and always will.

Hi! Please please please, could you tell me more about your coffin chain ideas?/nf

I am obsessed but barely anybody has jumped onto the ship yet and I am VERY new to the fandom so I wanna wait with making it myself until I know more lol. You are lowkey fueling this entire operations and I wanna thank you for that either way.

(rubs my paws together) you have no idea what you've unleashed anon i've been holding onto this ask specifically bc i've been sapping dopamine from it like a little leech waiting until i had time to hastily doodle up a little dynamics timeline for different stages of the ot4

i REALLY hope this makes sense . i feel the need to say this every time i post abt coffinchain but my ideas are rly specific and i've had time for them to infect my brain like mold so i'm defo ready to accept this all being rly niche and really just for me and like 3 other people

buuut if this little peek into my mind speaks to ANY of y'all i absolutely encourage implore and beg you to send me asks and ideas and whatnot about these 4 bastards literally whenever you want!!

TL;DR one half of the trauma bonded couple reaches out and forms an immediate kinship with the big scary guy that no one likes & convinces his petty boyfriend to let him fw them. then he starts bringing his deranged fbi otter around they start double-dating only for it to become a situationship and then the worst polycule ever

a whole supercut of lynn saying amanda's name and amanda never said her name once...

this got me thinking:

do you think when lynn and amanda finally got together, amanda never calls her a pet name, just calls her by her name, all the time. at first lynn thinks it's because amanda doesnt want them to go too fast or because amanda is not comfortable with that sort of intimacy.

but months go by and still it's "lynn, what do you want for dinner?" or "come to bed, lynn" or "i think you're pretty, lynn" and then it's a year, and she's called amanda every term of endearment in the book and she's still "lynn"

and one day she just had to ask

"why do you just call me 'lynn'?"

"thats your name, what do you mean?" followed by a soft laugh, because the mood is light.

"yeah but we're a couple... and couples are 'babe,' 'baby,' 'honey,' or 'darling', whatever, you know?"

"do you want me to call you those?"

"if you want to, i mean... you seem like you dont want to, because if you do, you would have."

"okay..." a smile and an affectionate look in her eyes, to lighten the mood.

"so maybe just why? why not?"

"well" and she cradles lynn's hand in between hers.

lynn takes a deep breath, and mandy gives her a kiss on the forehead—soft, affectionate.

"because there's no other word or phrase that means 'love' to me more than your name."

Came for Zac, stayed for the bizarre Chamanda alien romance play. Those characters are just too good to be one offs. Between Amanda's commitment to the weirdness and the contrast to Chanse's calm delivery/translating her gibberish, I was invested in their love story. The whole saga needs to be clipped.

"i'll see you later," you said, giving sonny a quick peck on the cheek before turning to the rest of the squad. "it was lovely to meet you all. i hope to see you again soon," you smiled warmly.

you had hung around for a couple hours but ultimately, needed to get home. you had a few things to straighten out for work and around the house, and you'd also really wanted some wind down time to yourself to destress for a bit before bed.

"see you around," finn smiled, giving you a nod, like you had passed some test of sorts. it made you feel sort of accomplished. finn was an interesting guy, and you were flattered to be someone he considered alright in his book.

"drive safe," olivia told you, giving you a warm smile.

"yeah, have a nice night," amanda mumbled reluctantly, her tone insincere.

"i love you," he called, watching as you left. you shook your head, grinning and blowing him a kiss. he pretended to catch it and press it to his heart. if you weren't already halfway out the door, you would have rolled your eyes and lovingly called him a dork. "she's great, isn't she, guys?" he turned back, a proud smile on his face.

"i don't know how on earth you bagged her, carisi, but you better not mess up," finn laughed, shaking his head in disbelief.

"oh, don't listen to him," olivia laughed. "you two are adorable together"

"aw, come on," he grinned, waving them off, but he couldn't help the blush that crept up onto his cheeks.

"what do you think, rollins?" he asked. she had been abnormally quiet all night, and he was dying to know what she was thinking.

"she's alright," amanda shrugged. she had that tense posture and tone of voice she always had when she was holding something back.

"well, i think it's time to get home to noah," olivia said, standing from the barstool and placing some money on the bar.

"yeah, i'm gonna call it a night too," finn follow suit, both of them clearly sensing the tension.

"goodnight," amanda called, glancing over, waving goodbye at them. they both waved back, heading for the door quickly, wanting to put as much distance between them and the impending argument as possible.

olivia had her fair share of arguments with stabler in her time. she knew exactly how heated and personal they could become, and finn, he just didn't want to have to sit there awkwardly. the fighting would make his beer taste bad— or so he would say.

"yeah, goodnight," sonny said, but his voice was quiet as he continued to stare at amanda with furrowed brows. "cmon, rollins," he pried, sitting down next to her. "i know when you're not tellin' me the truth"

"listen, carisi," she sighed, her finger tracing the rim of her glass. "i don't want to hurt your feelings, alright?"

"hurt my feelings?" he asked, feeling extremely confused. he felt like the introduction went well. was there something that he had missed?

"i just don't think she's good enough for you," she finally said, looking over to meet his eyes.

"not good enough for me?" he almost couldn't believe what he was hearing. "if anything, i'm the one that's not good enough for her!" his tone wasn't angry or defensive, just confused, as if he had never even considered the thought that he was too good for you.

"i'm just saying-" she paused, trying to find the words without coming across as jealous as she felt. "she doesn't understand the job and its demands. she won't understand you."

"amanda," sonny said, his voice low and serious. "you're my partner, and i respect your opinion more than anyone else's, but you're wrong."

"carisi-"

"no," he stopped her, his tone firm but not unkind. "if it's her understanding me that's your concern, i can assure you, she gets me like no one else. no one else has ever made me feel so seen and loved before. she may not always understand my job or my stressful law classes, but she listens, and she tries to understand, and that's what's important to me. i wanted you all to meet her because i love her, and you guys have grown to mean a lot to me. i would love for you to like her and be something friend adjacent, but i'm not going to lose sleep over it if you don't approve," he said, leaving no room for discussion.

amanda stared at him, opening her mouth to say something back, but she couldn't think of anything. she thought she could express her disapproval, and he would accept it. what she didn't expect was for him to come to your defense like that.

he really loved you, and there was nothing she could do about it.

so fellow enthusiasts of richie from the bear what's the read on our guy in s3? Specifically his immediate hostility towards Carmen/unwillingness to accept his apology?

i'm thinking 1. he thinks carmy didnt really own up to it as he said in the voice message that they both said things they didnt mean etc. and his continued mismanagement of the restaurant has just stoked the fire from that point on

AND/OR 2. richie is seeing the same selfdestructive behaviors in carmen that he's seen in both donna and mikey and he doesn't wanna be close to that when it explodes. so he is actively just trying to distance himself and challenge carmen on it at every turn instead of being a "bystander" as I feel like it's implied he felt a bit with mikey.

Curious if anyone else have any other thoughts?

In s3ep1 there were these two flashbacks of richie probably trying to reach mikey (first knocking on his door, then on the phone), so I wonder if we'll return to those scenes and re-contextualize them just like they did with the mikey and tina scene. Like I can see flashbacks to richie and mikey being used to frame a resolution between carmy and richie in s4.

i think its really inspirational that taylor swift is both the world’s biggest pop star icon legend at the moment while simultaneously being decidedly, deeply uncool. and i dont mean uncool like unlikeable, i mean uncool like she’s just a loveable dork that makes slightly outdated internet jokes and probably calls herself a cat mom. the duality of woman.

Paperheart is such a fun ship for me because every possible scenario I put them in they don't work out 🥲
