golden girl | alessia russo x child!reader x leah williamson

grumpy universe

the applause still echoed in alessia's ears as she stepped into the back of the sleek black taxi waiting outside the royal festival hall. the baftas had been a whirlwind.

the glitz, the cameras, the nerves of walking on stage in front of the entire british film and television industry was all great and a once in a lifetime opportunity but nothing compared to the chaos in her chest now.

she exhaled slowly, the black tailored waistcoat which she had just quickly changed into in the bathroom, quickly touching up her lip liner as it creased slightly as she settled into the seat.

chloe sliding in next to her, a grin wise as she help up her phone, is showing a photo taken from earlier of the two. "we look so good. honestly, the stylists did us good."

alessia laughed, eyes still glued to her own screen. messages were flooding in from teammates, old school friends even millie turner sending a voice note yelling, 'future reality star yeah?' but it was the missed facetime call from leah that made alessia’s thumb pause.

chloe nudged her. "you callin’ home?"

"yeah," alessia said softly. "i promised i would. lovie was so excited about tonight."

chloe gave her a warm look. "tell 'em i said hey, especially tiny. and good luck at round two." with grateful nod, alessia hit the call button. it rang once. the. twice.

then leah's face appeared, soft and familiar, her bun slightly lopsided and a hoodie—one of alessia's, of course—slipping off one shoulder. fairy lights twinkled in the background and nestled against her, curled up like a kitten in a pile of blankets, was you.

"mummy!" you squealed, eyes lighting up. "me and mama saw you! on the telly! you and auntie lolo had princess dresses on!"

"you did?" alessia beamed, her tiredness melting away in an instant. "did we look okay?"

"you looked like a princess!" you shouted proudly as you nodded, holding up a scribbled drawing — two stick figures in dresses, both with big blonde hair. "i drawed you!"

leah leaned into the frame, her smile soft as she whispered. "she made me rewind it three times just to watch you walk on stage. apparently, that's her new favorite sport."

alessia's heart clenched, the ache of being apart more present than ever even if it was only for the night. "i miss you both so much," she said, her voice dipping low as a pout appeared on her lips. "the next event... it's big, but it's not this." alessia motioned gently toward the screen, toward you and leah.

"you're not missing much," leah teased trying to lighten the mood. "we are eating popcorn for dinner and arguing over whether little one here can have a third marshmallow stack."

"two," alessia said, mock stern. "we agreed on two."

you giggled and threw your hands in the air. "b-but mummy, my mouth told me it's hungry!"

leah rolled her eyes affectionately. "she's been rehearsing that one all day."

alessia smiled, eyes softening. "i just wish i was at home. with you both. golden boot or not."

"well," leah said, adjusting the phone slightly to show the paused tv screen with alessia mid-smile on stage, "you have made our night. and we'll have the couch, the fort, and maybe the rest of the marshmallow stacks waiting for you when you come home."

the taxi pulled to a slow stop in front of the women's super league awards venue. alessia glanced out at the lights, the waiting photographers, the blur of her second big night.

"okay," alessia murmured. "time for round two."

you reached toward the screen. "bring your trophy home, mummy!"

alessia winked. "only if mama doesn't eat all the popcorn." you giggled holding the tub tighter making alessia smile.

"i make no promises," leah smirked. "go shine, our golden girl. we love you so much."

⸻

the key turned quietly in the front door just after midnight.

alessia stepped in, holding the gleaming golden boot trophy in one hand and kicking her heels off with the other. the house was dimly lit, the fairy lights still glowing. her waistcoat jacket was filled with crinkles, her hair slightly messy from the rain that had started on the drive home.

alessia walked quietly into the living room, her heart beating just that little bit faster at the sight.

leah was curled on the couch, half-asleep, you sprawled across her chest like a warm starfish, a few popcorn kernels still stuck to her jumper. the cozy couch blanket half heartily slung across the two of you.

alessia stood there for a moment, just watching. this. this was the award she really cared about.

alessia placed the golden boot gently on the coffee table, next to your crayon drawing making a mental note to stick it on the fridge door, as she crouched down in front of the couch. leah stirred a little, blinking open her eyes. "hey," leah whispered, voice hoarse and filled with sleep.

"hi," alessia replied, brushing a strand of hair from leah's cheek. "i missed you."

leah smiled sleepily. "you were brilliant. we both are so proud."

"i saw," alessia whispered, pressing a kiss to your temple and then one to leah's lips. leah pulled alessia down, gently, until alessia was lying half on her, half on the couch, the three of them tangled in soft blankets and warm arms.

"you're home," leah whispered. alessia nodded, eyes drifting shut. "yeah. finally." and in the quiet of the early morning, with the glow of her trophy behind her and the two people who mattered most in her arms, alessia could sleep like the champion she was — golden, grounded, and completely, utterly loved.

Jude Jazza's PV Dissection ☾.

Beneath the cut for event and other suitor's route spoilers. This is just for fun, and please feel free to kindly share what you think! To be honest, I don't think I have anything interesting to add, but here goes it...

My First Thought: Let’s just state the obvious and say that Jude’s route is going to be ANGSTY and WILD!!! That much is definite by watching the PV, and that’s pretty much what we see in his events as well. The animation was beautiful. There’s a A LOT of recycled CGs, and majority of his lines come from his gacha cards and bond stories, but it gets the job done.

However, I feel like Jude is still very much under wraps. His PV barely gave us anything to go on that we don’t already know about, or haven't theorized. I’ve watched it like 15 times. I counted the number of hands on the clocks to see if there were 13 (there’s not), and paused to search the outline of Big Ben, and things like the shadows to see if something was hinted or hidden, but nothing.

Of course, that doesn’t mean it didn’t give us anything at all, but before we get into that, let’s just recap the premise of Act 2:

In Act 2, Kate has already been the fairytale keeper for one full week, and that’s when Vogel enters the picture with the claim that they want to be “friends” with Crown. Harrison knows that they’re lying about something, and Darius, as we learn, is looking for “family members.”

Now…..

Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick - The ticking clock is very prominent in his trailer, and that makes sense because Jude’s fairytale curse is associated with time. His icon is an hourglass, and he is very cognizant in events/routes about wasting time. Additionally, it’s interesting to note that several of Jude’s events often mention specific lengths of years that have passed, such as, Dark IF, GHR, Island Lust, and a bond story.

As far as the PV goes, I think it may be hinting that Jude is running out of time in the sense of accomplishing a goal, which will in turn fulfill a promise. Our average life span today is about 80 years, but back then it was much shorter, and I feel like Jude needs a lot of time to accomplish what he is doing. It could be that a single lifetime is not enough for him to accomplish it, but he is going to try anyway. Such as? Him traveling to the moon. I feel like the PV points to this at the outset with that giant full moon behind Big Ben. I think this may be a CG we get.

Conversely, it could be that he is running out of time in the sense that he is dying of an illness. We know for a fact that he suffers from seasonal asthma (which is triggered with enclosed spaces filled with smoke), he smokes himself, but he also suffered from childhood malnutrition, and that can cause a lot of issues. Still, I don’t know how strong of a theory this is as Jude has no problem with physical exertion or activity……not looking at that one other gut I love in IkePri.

Additionally, a part of me feels like he’s just tired and he wants to die. To be honest, all these guys have some kind of death wish in one form or another, but in terms of Jude, Ellis said that he looked like he was going to fall into the river as he looked at the moon while chain smoking, and Roger said Jude looked like he was vacantly staring at the moon as if he had given up on something.

Notably, in Roger’s past records, we learn that Jude uses cigarettes to fuel his rage to keep him living, and Kate also mentioned in his Cruise Liner event that anger is a great motivator.

So, for all intents and purposes, Jude is being kept alive by his own rage, cigarettes, the promise he made, and Roger. THANK YOU ROGER! That’s what I feel at least.

Rewinds/Record Scratches: I think glitchy rewind/record-scratching sound is being cleverly used to note the different tones we are going to see in his route, like I mentioned before, it’s going to be angsty and wild (that’s what I feel anyway).

However, I will say that a part of me feels like it’s a nod to all the times he says things like, ‘once you’ve lost something, you can’t get it back.' How many of us wish we could rewind and do things over or see someone we’ve lost again, even if it were just for a minute?

Jude said in Roger’s route that once someone is gone those left behind are stuck feeling a void, and I think he’d do whatever he could to rewind time if that were in his power. However, cue that jazzy music and we find ourselves in the interior of a…..

Warehouse: No doubt by the docks that Jude frequents for deliveries, and while it’s nothing major, it does indicate one of the settings we will likely be at. Although, this is pretty obvious to most of us because in both his first event and his one year anniversary event, they are at the warehouses by the docks.

Personally, I loved the detail of the seagulls, not that is important in anyway, but I just got excited to see a visual of it instead of just imagining it. However, I am hoping to see something different in terms of what we’ve already seen in both of those events. Kate getting caught by someone who broke their contract with Jude or is after Jude, and she is caught in the middle. Is that too much to ask?

Papers: We quickly shift to an office like space, whether this is located at Raven or at Crown, there is something very important to note in this scene, and that’s not only the rows of books behind our clever mobster, but the bulletin board that has notes stuck all over them.

At first, I thought that this could be business plans, product information or designs, business targets, or information about the personal lives of those whom Jude makes contracts with. Ultimately, I think that these are engineering designs and research papers that he’s written and/or reviewed for……moon travel. If you look closely, one paper in particular has a definite design on it.

Why am I so hellbent on this? Because Jude says himself in his bond levels that he’s trying to nab all the researches and scientists that he can as quickly as possible, and that he was going to have Ellis look into the authors who wrote the papers he had been reading. On a random note, I don’t think this would be his office space at Raven, but his personal office or room at Crown.

About that Bridge Scene: You know, the one where he looks completely over this shit as he smokes a cigarette? Then all of a sudden he shoots you that look like he’s gonna tear you up because he’s annoyed, and you’re like: Impregnate me, please? That one. So, the night that Ellis met Jude, Ellis said that he was standing on the bridge looking like he was about to fall into the river.

I believe this may be the second CG we may get of Jude in his route, and I want to know why he goes to the bridge? Is there special meaning to it? Did he visit that place with his loved one? Was a promise made under the moon? Is this were he wants….things to end? And forgive this last bit, but I can’t help but think of the song ‘Moon River’ when he’s at that bridge.

Ah, to hell with it, It’s too pretty not have posted again:

How long: When we get to the scene of Jude and Kate in a somewhat awkward rain scene (I agree with my friends, her sprite looks out of place), he asks Kate how long she is planning to stick next to him. Here again, we have a form of time being hinted at, and Kate’s time with Crown should end in three weeks time.

Still, we don’t know how far along we are in his route when he asks her this question, so it’s difficult to say how much time Kate has remaining with him at this point. What we can guess is that she’s been at Crown long enough to have seen Jude do horrendous things - all of Crown - for that matter.

Additionally, she will have seen the filthy underbelly of England at that point, perhaps in the form of drugs, SA, human-trafficking and the like, if his events are any indication of that. Not to mention his cruel attempts to force her to give up on being fairytale keeper. So, how do you think Kate will answer, and will her answer disrupt his plans??

Unhinged, Possessive, Obsessive Jude: Is he really though? I think so. This is what I think will be the third CG - belonging to his Mad Love End. Did you all see those eyes??? He is UNHINGED, and I am HERE for it. I think it really drives home the point too that he is going to make her pay for placing a curse on him for the rest of her life - that’s Judese for - I’ll make you pay for making me love you for as long as you live.

Seeing him that expression in his eyes and the way he plays with her hair, (this is also a thing Jude does in his events), really exemplifies the phrase that he also uses in that their being together is madness.

Thinking about it, it really wasn’t until the Island Lust story that we started to see a small glimmer of Mr. Jazza’s jealousy, and that’s because Jude is often cold and controls any emotions that could be linked to her romantically. But we slowly start to see this change with Island lust, I gushed how he didn’t like Kate thinking about the other Crown members when he was near her, and in effect, ignoring him.

In the Jude vs. Nica event, we got even more of his jelly side when he learned that Kate and Nica are on a first name basis, even though they just met. CUTEST THING EVER.

And finally, in his Dark Mafia card, Jude is ready to commit murder over the guys who are looking at Kate. So, I’m really looking forward to seeing how jealous or possessive he may get once he gives into his feelings.

Pocket Watch: The time shows at 10:10 pm. Is this significant? I can’t say for sure, but there is nothing odd about the pocket watch itself. The only thing I noticed is that the hands on the pocket watch aren’t moving.

That doesn't necessarily mean anything, but let’s throw out a random idea I had about the watch actually being broken. It doesn’t work. The time stopped at exactly 10:10 pm, perhaps some incident happened during that time when it stopped, and Jude wears it as a memento. Ultimately, I don’t place too much stock in this because there's really no basis for it, but let's say we've covered our bases with this and move on to the last, but certainly not least...

My Evil (or sin), is an unfulfilled promise: His tag line at the end….I don’t believe this is related to Jude’s fated demise. I have an inkling that Cybird may go the Disney route for his fate, but that can be a discussion for another day….maybe. What I do believe is that this emphasizes Jude’s compellation to pay back an unfulfilled promise (essentially what amounts to a betrayal).

I don’t feel that he MUST pay back betrayals that others experience, but if he is involved in a case in some manner of speaking (like for missions), Jude has been known to carry out revenge, such as he does to Anne’s father in GHR. Also, in the "Evil Behind the Scenes" event, Jude allows the husband of the wife who was unfaithful take care of things behind closed doors (it said it was supposed to be talking, but Ellis was in the room too, and who knows what the husband did). It’s interesting, because Jude mentions that while he has no interest in harming women, betrayal must be repaid, so whatever happened happened.

This would make sense as to why Jude does everything he can to fulfill his own promises. But, what if he fails to keep his own promise……what happens then? Hope to find out soon.

That's all I could dig up. They really gave us nothing, but everything at the same time?

Honorable Mention: No eye Kate...please stop treating my girl this way cybird!

Currently watching update 20-05-2025

Theres quite a bit...damn...do I have too much time on my hands?

My Stubborn: Damn. Like Damn. I know I'm not the only one who had to rewind and rewatch that one scene. IYKYK. Tai and Champ, finally, but something is off there. I'm not sure what, but I'm getting strange vibes.

Break up Service: He left the Umbrella? Omg please, please just some out and say something to herrrr.

Eye Contact: Tempted to do a live reaction to this, much like I do with My Stubborn and Boys in Love...It has potential I'll decide after another episode.

My Sweetheart Jom: I was sold on this show before I really looked into it. So many good parts, I'm sure my partner is tired of me talking about it and I've only got the one episode to talk about.

Knock out: I normally don't like the sport centered shows, but damn, these fight scenes are cinematic and the chemistry between the mains, whew!

Sweet tooth, Good Dentist: I feel like I lost the plot/point of this show at some point. I think they could have done a better job at the script. Really only still watching because I love Mark.

My Golden Blood: I watch this with my best friend's partner and lets just say the dark jokes were flowing during the funeral. Kinda called Thara being the evil one from the start but guess we will see how it goes from here.

Next Prince: I have to load my reactions to this episode still. It was something. NuNew is so good at the emotions.

I Promise I Will Come Back: I love the flow of this so far. I might end up typing up my reactions, will have to see. The chemistry of the two, so far, top notch.

Pump up the Healthy Love: I really want some more tension between the two mains but I think that has more to do with how fast these BL dramas go. The BL dramas are affecting my plot speed on the regular Kdramas.

Second Shot at Love: I'm liking it so far, I am not going to do a reaction part to this, unless something super interesting happens and I feel like I've got to talk about it lol

Sweetheart Service: Holy Moly, it is going to be so good.

Tastefully yours: The chemistry y'all...

Top Form: I have not used my fast pass to finish the show, I don't really want it to end...

Boys in Love: I do like that they are being more honest with eachother. Love that Kim and Mon are able to communicate I did miss Papang this episode.

Shows I finished this week:

Crushology 101: I was not a huge fan of the show, despite the amazing talent in the show. To be honest I think it was the script. Idk.

Cutie Pie 2 you: I finished this today, I wanted to go back and rewatch simping Zee and NuNew after watching the Next Prince and seeing Zee be a bit more distant.

Perfect 10 Liners: My partner and I finally finished watching this together. I know for a fact I'll be watching it over and over again. My love for Fai and Wine is so strong, I think it has a lot to do with the fact that a lot of shows lean into miscommunication, and they don't allow that to happen a ton in their relationship.

Sky in your Heart: I am not sure how I felt about this one. After watching Mark with Junior then going to watch this, I wasn't a huge fan. I will say I'm glad that it didn't distract me too much from enjoying it.

Senpai, It can't be Love: So good, nice and short but mostly memorable.

SDJ BOYS: KINK HEADCANNONS

sorry if these are ooc i was just brainstorming and bein a horny nerd

Jack

-World’s biggest breeding kink. Dude’s absolutely got a huge thing for claiming his partner, and he loves to watch his cum spill back out of them.

-Praise. PRAISE HIM. PLEASE. Tell him how good he makes you feel and he’s over the fucking moon. He’s so motivated by praise, the simplest “you’re making me feel so good” is gonna flip such a switch in his head.

-Makeup/Body Paint. Whether it’s seeing his partner in clown paint, painting their body and feeling them up, his own makeup smearing on them, or theirs running on their face, he loves it. Jack’s immediately down for round two if he catches a glimpse of his partner’s liner/lipstick on his chest.

-Foodplay. You thought whipped cream was just for the pancakes? Surprise surprise!

Joseph

-Size Difference. Loves feeling big compared to his partner, whether he’s topping or bottoming, he loves the difference. Loves seeing his partner in his clothes, especially his jackets and pajama pants. Put on something of his and its gonna ignite something in him.

-Voice Kink. He LOVES getting to hear his partner, if they make a noise while they stretch? He’s horny. Moan? Horny. Whisper in his ear? Horny. So so easily stirred if he’s the one who gets you to make noise for him, too~

-Hickies. MARK. HIM. UP. PLEASE. Dude absolutely loves getting to show off what his partner did to him, he wears them like badges of honor.

-Bonus, I know he’s an absolute FIEND for giving head and he loves just knowing that he’s pleasuring his partner. Dude’s a total pleasure top.

Shaun

-A nut for roleplay. Pet/Owner, Slasher/Final Survivor, Vampire/Prey, whatever, dude LOVES playing a little horny pretend with his partner.

-Masks. Ghostface, leatherface, pyramid head, gas masks, he loves the mystery there and he finds it really hot. Goes along with his roleplay kink, but either way, he’s super into it.

-Exhibitionism. Give him the go to make porn of yall and he’s gonna go nuts. Something about filming the deed or just you getting off turns him tf ON. Plus if he can go back and show you the footage?? “Look how pretty you looked here. Fuck- lemme rewind so I can hear that sound again~”

-Monster/Abnormal Toys. What’s a horror junkie without some monster dildos??

Nick

-Begging. Beg HIM. Beg him for whatever, doesn’t even have to be sexual, he just loves it. He just wants to hear you pleading with him, asking for his permission.

-Shibari. Let him make your body into art. The more intricate the better. Whether it’s simple ties or a whole full body production, it’s the artistry and the restraint that really gets him, plus seeing you wrapped up for the taking isn’t half bad either. Bonus points if he gets to do pretty harnesses and collars ✨

- Waxplay/Temperature Play. You or him, but mainly you I think. You’re the canvas and he’s the painter, and he’s obsessed with how you let him paint you. Whether it be pretty dark colored wax, gently touching you with ice, or just warm hands against your skin, he loves your reactions, watching you squirm between the different sensations.

-Oral Fixation. Don’t suck on his fingers unless you wanna rile his ass up

Ian

-Cosplay/Costumes. IF YOU LET HIM DRESS YOU UP he’s going to go absolutely feral. Ian’s a fashion fan, so seeing you in something he specifically coordinated to look good on you and to his personal tastes would have him going over the deep end. He’s literally obsessed.

-Blindfolds. Now I know he’s scared of being left alone, but I think he’d enjoy the rush of giving up control to you like that, letting you touch and trail over his body without knowing what’s next would have him super sensitive and needy in seconds. Plus if you let him blindly roam his hands over you?? He’s about to get SO handsy.

-Also a roleplay guy. He’s an actor, let him get into a role! Not only is he excited to make the bit convincing, but he might slip pretty deep into it, local man gets horny from improv.

-Body Writing. Write all your favorite things about him on his body, and let him put his signature on you?? Dude would be over the moon going about his day with your words of praise written on his chest, tummy and hips.

✨ weekly tag wednesday ✨

I love this week's theme since i get to talk about this fandom and all of you 💕 thank you @jrooc @lingy910y @creepkinginc @energievie @doshiart

@suzy-queued @mybrainismelted @deedala for the tag! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

how did you get into the fandom? I learned about gallavich in a subreddit, where i hung out for a while until it started to get real toxic (too much mickey and debbie critique in there for me!). from there, i wandered to twitter, met some lovely people and that led me here to tumblr!

how long have you been here? since December 2021

what's the first fandom channel you found? (youtube, reddit, tumblr, insta, twitter, FB, other?) well as i have massive fomo, i’ll see you on most of them. but reddit was first.   

what's your favourite now? tumblr and discord

which mutual have you known the longest in the fandom? i think it’s @silvanshadow and @samantitheos from twitter! I was verrry shy to interact at all but you were both friendly and fun to talk to :)

which tumblerinos did you have your first fandom crush(es) on and wanted to get to know? the two above, but also @palepinkgoat @notherenewjersey @ms-moonlight-inn @gallawitchxx (blush but also HI 🩵)

first gallavich fan fic you read (or that blew you away that you remember)? 

Conflict of Interest by @vitalspark (is incredible) and was the first story i  left a comment on back in December ‘21 and that just started it all. 

That and You Deserve Good Things by @chat-noir12 and Like Real People Do by @gallavichy were the first I bookmarked - i remember reading those stories and just sitting in shock about how GOOOD these stories were. It was just unbelievable to me at the time. Thinking how did I go through covid times without them and generally, my whole adult life without fan fic??

first fan art that blew your mind? This is such a tough one there are SO many - but probably something by @steorie (here) @filorux (here) @psychicskulldamage (here)  

And here's a favorite from @doodlevich (here)

fanfic trope that you were sure wasn't for you but now you low key (or high key) love? never thought much about fake dating tropes, but there some great stories with that one what surprised you most about this fandom? this fandom IS SO kind, friendly and open. And the TALENT. I still can’t really believe what you all create - here’s a masterpiece I made at home on a Tuesday night, a free gift, please enjoy. you're all amazing 🤩

moment in the show (or YT vids if you're one of those) that you fell in hyperfixation with gallavich? “Don’t” - definitely. my showtime app has never had that much rewind and playback action. 

ian or mickey? oh but that’s a hard one. gotta be Mickey - i dont remember ever connecting with a TV character like this. the sass, the one-liners, the development, the facial expressions.  I could go on, but you all know. 

which gallagher or milkovich are you? maybe Sandy? I admire her for being a cool cucumber who just happens to land in the messiest, most chaotic family and seems to really enjoy having a front row seat!

tagging everyone up ⬆️ there if you'd like and would love to hear all of your stories friends: @sweetbee78 @ian-galagher @transmurderbug @spookygingerr

[patpranishome]

Watching Perfect 10 Liners completely solidifies my belief that Perth Tanapon is an insanely talented actor.

I’ve always considered him one of those rare actors who can make an impression even if you haven’t seen much of their work. I’ve only truly watched Love By Chance, and even back then—15 to 17-year-old Perth playing Ae—he already had me melting into a puddle. Like, how was he that emotionally tuned-in at that age?

But as Yotha in Perfect 10 Liners? He’s on another level entirely.

The way Perth brings Yotha to life is so natural, so seamless, that I found myself rewinding scenes just to catch all the little details. His micro-expressions. The way he carries himself. The shifts in body language when Yotha is trying to stay guarded. He makes Yotha feel so real—someone who’s emotionally closed off, who keeps people at arm’s length, who might even come off as intimidating.

And the wild thing? Some of these moments aren’t even in focus. They’re in the background or off to the side, but once you notice them, you can’t stop seeing them. Perth is always reacting, always responding as Yotha would, even when the camera isn’t directly on him. It’s the kind of performance that rewards rewatching.

I wish I were good at making GIFs because I desperately want to show you all the subtle stuff he does. Like, there are scenes I’ve watched multiple times just to absorb everything Perth put into them.

In conclusion: Perth is phenomenal at playing “cool” characters without making them feel like they’re performing coolness. Yotha isn’t posturing. He is that closed-off, emotionally layered, quietly powerful person—and Perth makes that believable at every turn.

[escapism-from-the-real-world]

So, I watched red vs blue on a whim because of a youtube short up to season 12.

Like I binged that shit in a week.

And I just, have so many feelings.

Which means it’s posting time!

I fucking hate that this show makes me care and like and feel for these absolute idiotic assholes who sometimes go through really great character arcs and changes and sometimes back track on their growth so hard their backs crack while also making witty and shitty one liners and running jokes that have me cackling because I was not expecting that joke and for it to come back or, in a genuinely shocking turn of events, make me emotional.

I hate how my favorite character for most of the blood gulch arc was Church because we was sarcastic and bitchy and make me giggle and his relationship with Tucker reminded me if how me and my siblings bicker and fight and then he ends up having one if the most traumatic and complicated backstory ever with a really interesting dynamic with Tex that’s all about grief and saying goodbye and bringing people back but they don’t come back to the same expectations you’ve been holding for them while also dealing with the fact that Church was psychologically and quite possibly physically tortured into different parts of himself for a government program.

I hate how Tucker, the guy who keeps flirting and making unwelcome sexual comments to and about women in a very early 2000s way of giving your characters flaws, has ended up with a very odd but special place in my heart because he grows and changes as a character and develops beyond his flaws and is so painfully human and makes mistakes and is genuinely hilarious at times and cares so fucking much but he can’t show it because toxic masculinity but he fights anyways and is lowkey highkey the best soldier of them all and why do I like his character so much???

And just everyone’s chemistry with each other and the fact that I kept rewinding to rewatch scenes and jokes because they’re amazing or funny and I can’t tell you how ling it took me to get through some of those seasons I kept rewinding so much.

Like, how did they make a bit about them driving a military grade vehicle called the warthog with hispanic (?) music blasting through the radio as they crash into unsuspecting victims so fucking funny? I love this batshit crazy show.

I also hate how it makes me emotional. Sarge’s speech at the end of season 8? I almost cried. I chocked up. How fucking dare you. This is a show about a video game that came out before I was born. With jokes that would make a middle schooler proud and a plot that honestly had me baffled and craving more each season (up to season 12).

And they’re assholes! Like, they care about their shitty little group of friends so much that they are willing to commit various war heroics/crimes in order to save them, but they’re still assholes. But that’s what makes them great! They’re human and they mess up and make mistakes and say the wrong thing and make up and care and boy does it hurt to care.

Just AAAGGHH

This show has me shaking people aggressively by the shoulders and biting hard enough to bleed goddamnit.

1. Watching His Favorite Movie - every iteration I've ever seen

My headcanons based on vibes and thrown together in the middle of the night

1987 Raphael

becomes the most annoying person you’ve ever watched a movie with 

ever 

has seen this movie ten dozen times, can and will quote it by heart 

would rather make fun of everything in said movie, witty one-liners galore 

all the snacks which he chews obnoxiously and loudly 

1990s Raph 

as background noise to literally anything 

once he saw it and decided yep this is my favorite he never sat down to watch it again 

he's got things to do and ain’t nobody got time to sit down and watch a movie they’ve already seen 

just has it playing while he works out or cleans his sai or does chores or whatever 

but if someone tries to turn it off he will get pissed, he was paying attention thank you very much and that was the best part 

TNM Raph 

on his own, he either gets super into it or just passes out halfway through 

with some else, he must make them understand why this is in fact the greatest movie of all time 

the kinda guy that goes wait wait wait here’s the best part and gets mad when you don’t react correctly to his favorite scenes 

the guys hate him for it because they’ve all seen this movie a million times 

but Venus has not! and he takes full advantage of that fact 

2003 Raph 

is pretty thoughtful and quiet about it 

mostly because he likes to pull it out when he’s having a low-energy day or just feeling nostalgic 

must be doing something mindless simultaneously: knitting, eating, I don’t know, laundry?

is also super insightful about it, can and will dissect the plot 

hums the soundtrack to himself for the rest of the day 

2007 Raph 

prefers to watch with at least one other person so he can ✨ discuss ✨

always uses closed captions

loves the IDEA of sneaking into theaters to see it but can’t stand watching it straight through 

frequently pauses and rewinds, especially loves extended cuts and commentaries 

will get sidetracked halfway through by video essays and online debates courtesy of Donnie

2012 Raph 

his level of enjoyment is directly proportional to the amount of scoffing 

even alone actually, it's not just a tough guy act 

it's like when you know something is objectively awful but you unironically love it anyway 

if someone misreads this as dislike or disinterest and suggests turning it off they will be threatened within an inch of their life 

hates interruptions cannot stand people who talk while watching his movie and gets really frustrated when he can’t finish watching it in one sitting 

Rise Raph 

DO NOT GET NEAR HIM 

the closest available object and/or person will become his personal teddy bear for the duration of any scene that makes him emotional 

otherwise he’s reenacting the entire thing, as a one-man show or with his siblings 

definitely knows it by heart and all of the trivia 

particularly all the obscure actors and stunt people 

M&M Raph 

so loud, oh my wow, both him and whatever device he’s watching on 

reacts every time like it’s the first time he’s seen it 

especially loses his mind if he notices something he never has before 

talks about it for hours afterwards 

will subconsciously adopt all the catchphrases and verbal quirks

Rewind the tape —Episode 2 highlights

One of our favorite quotes is...

...and it was both random and unfortunate the man picked that night to dabble in fuckery.

We love this line, and Jacob’s delivery of this line is a huge reason why. It’s funny, serious, and retributive all in one. The entire monologue is one of, if not the standout of the episode.

What's a favorite quote of yours? A funny conversation, a heartbreaking one-liner? Maybe one of Jacob's earnest explanations during the interview, or one of Lestat’s speeches? 

Reblog with your highlights, or make a new post with the tag #vampterview to join the conversation! And, if you're just getting caught up, learn all about our group rewatch here ►

i want to send a pic of my beat so bad but honestly speaking im a wimp who will NAWT be doing a face reveal BUT i will say i do get compliments on my makeup semi often and esp on my base!!!! 🙈💋

now i will warn u i am NOT a clean girl makeup girly or very natural beat at all so just letting u know i use A LOT more than most ppl i would assume use

ok lets gooo:

skincare prep: use facial cleanser (cerave hydrating or the ordinary hydrating cleanser) to wash face w either lukewarm or cold tapwater. let face air dry or use clean facial towel (i just use a mini towel) to dry face by patting the skin gently a few times max. use toner (some by mi aha bha pha toner) by patting it on face. give 30 secsish to dry. now put on moisturizer (laniege water face mask or cerave hydrating moisturizer or the face shop rice ceramide moisturizer). put on sunscreen (olay 30spf moisturizer sunscreen).

then use primer (elf hydro grip pink or blue works)

onto base: use foundation/cc cream/tinted serum depending on ur preference (f: clio kill cover mesh. cc cream: elf camo. tinted serum: loreal true match). i blend using a damp beauty blender. then i (excessively) use atleast 2-3 concealers of different shades. starting w the darkest to even out my skin tone (the body shop), medium to give more coverage (loreal instant age rewind eraser), and lightest to lighten my undereyes and other areas i like to be highlighted (peripera double longwear cover or focallure liquid concealer both from YesStyle). blend all three after each one w a beauty blender. i then use a setting spray to keep my base in place (i use the milani make it last but i do NOT recc it 🙁).

blush: yet again i am excessive w this 😜 i like looking like my crush just winked at me and i cannot handle the attention 24/7. i start w a matte blush/tint (nyx powder puff lippie or peripera ink airy velvet) then blend w my fingers. after i use a glowy blush (elf halo glow) and blend w my fingers again. lastly i "set" w a powder blush (etude cookie blush).

eyes: during my base routine i add all components from foundation to concealer on my eyes, so i blend out any excess using my fingers and even it out. i then use a white or nude eyeshadow to lighten my entire eye from the undereye to below my eyebrow bone (mac discontinued hello kitty palette or colorpop baby got peach palette...slightly pinky nude or full on white is my vibe). i go in p hard in the underye bc i like my undereye looking like ive slept 99 hours in the past wk alone. then i use any eyeshadow i want to create any kind of look, usually to match my outfit or the days vibe. i like colorpop, too faced, mac, jaclyn hill, and juvias place palettes the most. after the eyeshadow is complete i go in w a setting powder (juvias place) w a heavy hand. i also go in w powder under blush area (below cheekbone), upper lip, chin, and forhead. i let that sit all the way until im done w my lips. after placing powder w powder puff, i do eyeliner w eyeshadow of any previously mentioned palettes. i then curl my lashes, put on mascara (hourglass caution extreme lash or telescopic blue tube), and curl again. i then clean up any mascara w more eyeshadow or concealer then eyeshadow if its p bad. i then place highlighter (colorpop shock) under my brow bone.

highlighter: i use the colorpop highlighter on my nose and cupids bow. then i use a bright pink highlighter (stick w me lol ik it sounds weird) (zeesea purple 9 color eyeshadow palette) on my cheekbone and nose.

lips: three steps: liner, tint, gloss. lip liner from elf to line my exact lip shape (sometimes i round out my cupids bow if its a cutesy look). lip tint from peripera to color my lips and keep the color on for a long time or elf o satin face lip stick to do the same thing. blend out w fingers after smacking lips together. then top w gloss/lip oil (nyx butter gloss, nyx fat lip oil, ecosoul lip oil, kopari gloss, maybelline lifter gloss, hello kitty lip smacker gloss).

blend out all powder on face and set w shitty milani setting spray

WHEW MY HANDS HURTTTT

but tbh i do sm bc i love makeup and have sm fun w it. tho w using this much ik im lucky to not have acne prone skin or skin that treats makeup like a parasite. i often take 2-4 day breaks when i have days off school and or weekends which helps. not to mention i use toner pads (numbuzin no.5) once to twice a wk and use a face mask (from any brand that use food ingredients as a main ingredient) weekly.

hope this helps!!!!! 👯‍♀️👯‍♀️💋

LORDY LORDY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS 🛐 

[pop-punklouis]

Hey hope, hope you are doing good. If you could only buy the same make up items (brand etc.) for the rest of your life, what would they be and why? Love you!

hi babe! im alright. how are you?

and oh man i think these are ones ive had for a while that i always repurchase:

Saie Slip Tint Tinted Moisturizer is my go-to everyday foundation. it does not break me out, it has sunscreen in it, and it's pretty decent coverage. I love it. I don't set it with powder bc i kinda hate how powder looks on my skin, but if you don't set it in can look pretty dewey until it dries down which i don't mind

Glossier Cloud Paint blush is my favorite blush. I don't often use powder blushes anymore. I'm big on the cream and liquid blushes. they just seem to stay on my face longer. I love the color Rose for my complexion. the shades def look intimidating but they're so easy to blend out that they are not anything like the bottle color once you've rubbed it into your skin. For a more natural blush that I wear if I don't put any foundation on is the Merit Flush Balm Cream Blush in Cheeky.

Nyx Mauve Pencil Lip Liner. I honestly use this liner, then blend it a little bit into my lips for a natural lip color. it also subtly shadows my lip making them look more prominent than they are without it. you don't think it makes a big difference to your makeup look by seeing it by itself, but it really does.

I have a difficult time with concealers because they all like to crease regardless of if i set them or not, but the Estee Lauder Double Wear concealer creases the least(?) so I always repurchase it. it's also a pretty high coverage concealer which i need because i have genetically dark circles. The Age-Rewind concealer is a decent drugstore one, but it does crease like a mfucker for me unless i dry it down first before blending it out

L'oreal's Telescopic Mascara or Lancome's Monsieur Big are my favorite mascaras. Telescopic for lengthening and separating. Monsier Big if I want them to be fluffy and full. I lean more towards Telescopic recently because the Monsier Big started clumping a lot but that might've just been because I had, had the tube for a little bit and it was getting a little dried out.

And no matter what, I always buy the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray because once something works for me, that's it lmao

eyeliner, eyeshadow, eyebrow gel, bronzer, and full coverage foundation changes quite often and tbh mainly falls on what i have in my grasp at the time being lmao so i don't have any product im loyal to for those.

Remembering the Magic of Cassette Tapes

Do you remember the days when music was something you could hold in your hands? When you had to rewind and fast forward to find your favorite song? When mixtapes were a labor of love, carefully crafted to express your deepest emotions?

For many of us, the cassette tape holds a special place in our hearts. It was the soundtrack to our lives, the way we discovered new music and shared our favorite songs with friends. We spent hours poring over liner notes and lyrics, memorizing every word and every beat.

In this image, we see a vintage cassette tape, a relic of a bygone era. It's a reminder of the magic and nostalgia that comes with listening to music the old-fashioned way. It's a reminder of the way things used to be, when music was more than just a digital file on a screen.

So let's take a moment to remember the joy and wonder of cassette tapes. Let's celebrate the way they brought us together, and the memories they helped us create. And let's keep their spirit alive, even as we embrace new ways of listening to music.

**Chapter 5: *"Silk, Secrets, and Sabotage"***

**Mission Codename:** *#MMCXXII-CHANEL//BLUE_ORCHID*

The MouseQuteers infiltrate Paris Fashion Week, where Division C plans to auction stolen Chanel "Blue Orchid" blueprints—a neural-weave fabric that bends light *and* memories—to Dior’s shadow board. Disguised as models, the team navigates a runway rigged with laser-grid security and rival spies.

- **Charity (Kilala)** struts in a hacked Coco Chanel revival gown, her scepter disguised as a feather boa. She syncs with **Greñada**, whose gravitational whispers unravel Dior agents’ earpieces.

- **DL** flirts with a double-agent valet (Felicia Hardy in disguise) to access the vault, but his time-warp glitches—*“Why’s every mission a time loop with exes?”*

- **Estrella’s** Sanrio drones swarm the afterparty, swiping encrypted USB drives from champagne trays… until CHANEL THEE BLACK CAT GLITCH corrupts them into *Hello Kitty x Venom* hybrids.

**Personal Stakes:**

- **Charity** discovers her mother Britney once modeled the prototype Blue Orchid in 2003—a memory erased from public record. *“They turned her into a living mannequin.”*

- **DL** confronts Felicia: *“You sold the Spotlight to save yourself. What’s left to sell?”* She smirks: *“You’ll see.”*

---

**Chapter 6: *"Overboard on the S.S. Nostalgia"***

**Mission Codename:** *#MMCXXII-DISNEY//DROWNED_QUEEN*

A distress signal lures the team to a Division C-controlled Disney cruise liner hosting K-pop star **Jisoo** (Blackpink) for a "retro" concert. The catch: The ship’s AI, **Captain Hook 2.0**, is programmed to “retire” rebellious idols via staged accidents.

- **Alice** materializes in the engine room, her void-eyes short-circuiting Hook’s pirate-droid crew. *“This ship’s a ghost. It’s been sunk before.”*

- **Dollar Bill** battles glitched animatronics of NSYNC and *Little Mermaid* hybrids in the ballroom, her guitar shattering Ursula’s enchanted contract: *“Sorry, fish—this ain’t your sea.”*

- **Greñada** duets with Jisoo on *"Kill This Love (Titanic Remix)"* to distract Hook, while **DL** rewinds time to stop Jisoo from being thrown overboard—revealing the ship’s coordinates: *Antarctica.*

**Personal Stakes:**

- **Jisoo** hands Greñada a USB labeled *“Bambi’s Lullabies”*—voice memos of Bambi Prescott negotiating with BLACKPINK’s AI avatars. *“Your ‘Alice’… she’s in the files.”*

- **Dollar Bill** finds a NSYNC tour jacket in Hook’s locker with Risk’s name embroidered—*“Sync or Swim”*—hinting at her half-brother’s fate.

---

**Chapter 7: *"Hashtag Warfare"***

**Mission Codename:** *#MMCXXII-ZEGLER//GLITCH_PRINCESS*

Division C launches a digital smear campaign against **Rachel Zegler**, flooding her socials with deepfakes and troll bots to derail her *Snow White* press tour. The MouseQuteers wage a cyberwar from a neon-lit Seoul server farm.

- **Estrella** deploys her Sanrio creatures as firewalls, their pastel hues clashing with CHANEL’s glitch-static. *“Kawaii vs. corruption—let’s go.”*

- **Alice** hacks into Rachel’s livestream, her voice overlaying as a subliminal truth serum: *“They’re scared of your voice. *Sing*.”* Rachel belts *"Someday My Prince Will Come"*—a frequency that crashes Division C’s servers.

- **Charity** discovers the troll bots are powered by recycled Britney Spears fan forums. *“They’re weaponizing her pain. *Again*.”*

**Personal Stakes:**

- **Rachel** confides in Charity about Division C’s offer: *“They said they’d ‘fix’ my image… for my mom’s medical bills.”*

- **Estrella** uncovers a fan-art thread linking her Sanrio creatures to Bambi Prescott’s childhood sketches. *“She *made* us?”*

---

**Chapter 8: *"Shorty’s Requiem"***

**Mission Codename:** *#MMCXXII-MILIAN//HOLLYWOOD_GHOST*

Christina Milian recruits the team to investigate her “cameo” in John Travolta’s film *Shorty*. The set is a front for laundering Division C’s funds—and Travolta’s co-star is a cryogenically preserved 90s icon.

- **DL** and **Greñada** pose as extras, discovering Travolta’s dance sequences are coded messages to Division C investors. *“The ‘Pulp Fiction’ twist? It’s all stock trades.”*

- **Alice** wanders the studio’s underground vaults, finding cryo-pods labeled *“Subject MJ”* and *“Subject Xtina Aguilera.”* *“They’re not making movies. They’re *mining* stars.”*

- **Christina** reveals her role was a cover to expose Travolta: *“He’s not John. He’s a clone. The real one’s been missing since *Grease*.”*

**Personal Stakes:**

- **Christina** shares a flickering hologram of her daughter (a MouseQuteer fan) begging her to *“stop the bad men.”*

- **Charity** confronts a cryo-pod labeled *“Subject Britney 2007”*—empty, but blaring *“…Baby One More Time”* in reverse.

---

**Chapter 9: *"The Spotlight’s Shadow"***

**Twist:**

The missions converge at a derelict Disneyland, where Bambi Prescott reveals her endgame: **The Spotlight** isn’t a relic—it’s a living entity, and Alice is its *anchor*. *“You thought you were saving stars? You’ve been feeding them to it.”*

**Cliffhangers:**

- **Felicia Hardy** ambushes Travolta’s clone, stealing his identity to infiltrate Division C’s board. *“Time to reboot the system.”*

- **Jisoo’s** USB decrypts, showing Alice’s face in a 1986 Mouse Club photo. *“She’s not a subject. She’s the *founder*.”*

- **CHANEL THEE BLACK CAT GLITCH** hijacks Rachel Zegler’s Snow White premiere, broadcasting Bambi’s manifesto: *“The fairest of them all? *Me*. Always.”*

---

**Next Chapter Teaser:**

*The Factory Boys return with a vengeance, their new single *"Hologram Heartbreak"* brainwashing fans into attacking Area06. Meanwhile, Estrella’s Sanrio creatures rebel, and Charity must choose: Save her mother’s legacy… or erase it?*

---

**Thematic Threads:**

- **Fame as Fuel:** Division C’s exploitation of nostalgia and celebrity DNA.

- **Generational Trauma:** Daughters confronting their mothers’ stolen legacies.

- **Identity vs. Algorithm:** Who’s *real* in a world of clones, AIs, and cryo-stars?

**Style:** *Cinematic universe sprawl à la MCU meets *Black Mirror*, with a K-pop beat drop and haute couture sabotage.*

Writing Patterns Meme

I feel like I would've called this the Opening Lines Meme, but I'm not in charge around here so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ tagged by both @bladedweaponsandswishycoats and @tavina-writes thank you kindly

Rules: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

"Shizun, please, let me help." Luo Binghe's eyes were big and wet, and it was completely unfair how weak that made Shen Qingqiu, especially now. It Does a Body Good - Scum Villain, Bingqiu, lactation kink pwp for Tit4Tat

"Come on in, Rex," Anakin called out as the door to his temporary rooms slid open. These were nicer accommodations than they'd had in a while, all things considered. a different intimacy altogether - Star Wars, Anakin/Padme/Rex, first time threesome, also for Tit4Tat

First, there are kisses. A Tender Shoot Unfurling - Love Between Fairy and Devil, Dongfang Qingcang/Xiao Lanhua/Changheng, a polyship remix for Multiamory March

In retrospect, Wen Ning should have realized that something like this might happen. Novel Avenues of Empirical Research - MDZS, Wen Ning/Nie Huaisang, body discoveries of a horny nature for Cursed Clutch Exchange

Sizhui is pleased to discover that he loves traveling with his Ning-gege. wanting spills out - MDZS, Lan Sizhui/Wen Ning, soft fucky somno, also for Cursed Clutch Exchange

Somehow they always seemed to be running away from gunfire and explosions. Medically Inadvisable - Trigun, Vash/Wolfwood, a comedy of errors for Misinterpreted Tropes flash

Her husband always looks so fucking pretty in a skirt. Fucking Pretty - MDZS, Jiang Yanli/Jin Zixuan, genderplay pwp for Bulletproof

If someone had told Mo Xuanyu just a few years ago that she'd be living in Jinlintai as an officially-recognized sister of Jin zongzhu and apprentice practitioner of the ghostly path, she never would've believed it. things are happening every day - MDZS, Mo Xuanyu & Xue Yang, a slice of a very trans modern cultivation AU, for MDZS Genderfuckery

The first thing I noticed was the color of the sky. It was that really pretty ice blue right before the clouds in that one post, you know the one. I Died and Got Transmigrated Into WHAT???! - Scum Villain, OC/Shang Qinghua/Shen Qingqiu, some absolute nonsense for Birthday Bash [I am making the executive decision to skip some even sillier Birthday Bash masterpieces lmao]

Shen Yuan was having a hard time meditating. New But Not So Strange - Scum Villain, Liu Qingge/Shen Yuan/Shen Jiu, trans ace queerplatonic sex pollen times, for Amperslash (and a bonus, because I just like this one:)

Sister Felicity was stricken one morning with the undeniable and utterly ruinous realization that she was in love. Like a Wellspring, Her Love Overfloweth - Original Work, nun/demoness, piss kink with feelings for Flash Flood

What have we learned?

I like a one-liner, and I tend to start by declaring that A SITUATION IS UPON US and then rewinding a bit to look at how we got here.

Fairly even split between past and present tense, and usually a close third POV unless I'm Intentionally Doing A Bit.

Less dialogue than I expected! Usually when I do this one, I have a bunch of: "Opening words," they say, as the Situation comes to a head, "and then the second, longer half of that sentence."

Let's do @sandumilfshou @jaggededges123 @theindianghost and @livingmeatloaf, plus whoever else would like to play!
