John finds him in their usual spot. The camera nestled in the far corner of the yard hasn’t worked for months, operating solely as a fear mongering tactic. There’s a nook beneath it, tucked between the outside wall and the yard fence. It’s a good place for hiding. For trading cigarettes for gum, for kissing. Gale has only used it to hide lately. He sits against the wall, pulling at the hem of his fraying t-shirt, watching the strange glide of his pale skin slide over the bones of his hand, flexing his knuckles. There’s a rustling in the foliage beyond the fence. Gale looks up, expecting to see a rat, and instead comes face to face with John for the first time in weeks. He’s grinning. Gale blinks at him, bewildered, heart kicking in his chest, as John is grinning right at him. He’s got a beanie pulled down low despite the summer air, and he’s brandishing honest to God bolt cutters.

“Jesus, John,” Gale says. 

John winks as he cuts the fence. “C’mon, baby. We’re goin’ for a ride.”

...

“You look worse,” John says, tapping his restless fingers against the steering wheel and fiddling with the stereo. 

“Ain’t as bad off as you,” Gale says. “What’s with the moustache?”

John laughs. Turns to Gale with eyes gleaming. “Straight razors, baby! World is your oyster.” 

Gale rolls his eyes and smiles. He drops his head back against the carseat, pulling his sweater closer around his body as the breeze rushes in from John’s open window. There’s some upbeat old song rattling its way out of the tiny speakers, John singing along loudly as he vibrates in his seat. Gale rolls his head on his neck lazily to look at him. He seems okay. Curls grown past his brows, flopping down over them in gorgeous, loose spirals. He’s got shadows under his eyes, purpling and deep, but he’s boundless with energy that might be infectious if Gale weren’t so hungry. He watches as John dances in one place, grin still plastered below that stupid little moustache.

“You okay, Bucky?” 

“Peachy,” John smiles at him. He squints, then, looking at Gale with scrutiny, and far too much time with his eyes off the road. “You okay?”

“Mm,” Gale says. He shifts a little, feeling his seatbelt dig into his hip bones. “Better now you’re back.”

“Huh?” John says over the roar of the wind. “Sorry, what was that? You gone soft on me, Buck?”

Gale groans in false irritation. Says quietly, “Heard me the first time, John.” 

John throws his head back and laughs. Leans out the window like a dog and hollers down the open road, one hand on the wheel and the other on the door, and Gale drags him back inside as he swerves. The midday sun beats down on the hood of the car, trees rushing past, and as Gale settles back into his seat he watches, and tries to identify them. He grows tired after a while. Tucks his legs up and leans into the passenger side door, eyes drifting shut. 

“Where we goin’, Bucky,” he says, keeping them closed.

“Takin’ you on holiday, doll,” John says. “Gonna find you a diner and feed you up. Or you can watch me, because I’m fuckin’ starving. Then we’ll get a motel, one of those ones with the heart shaped beds. And I got a friend down South, real sweet kid, you’ll like him, Buck, you’ll really get on. He’s kinda loud, y’know, but I know you like that, really, and he’s got all these fuckin’ baseball cards. Which ain’t your thing, I know, but, he’s real sweet. Lives with his boyfriend, Kenny, he’s got the biggest garage you ever seen. But we’ll get the motel first. One of those ones with a claw foot tub. But we’ll get to a diner first, ’cos I’m starving. You starving, doll?”

Gale hums in vague acknowledgement. The motion of the car rocks him into a nodding state, and he thinks he might sleep like the dead with nobody interrupting to check on him. 

...

“Buck.”

Gale shrugs off a hand on his shoulder. 

“Buck.”

Gale groans, tucking his face further into the loose hood of his sweater, turning away. 

“Shit- Gale. Gale.”

“Wh’sit?” Gale mumbles. 

“Aw, Jesus, thank God,” John is saying, continuing to jostle Gale roughly from his doze. Gale shivers as he comes to, entire body laden with the aching remains of sleep. He can’t seem to shake it off fully. He opens his eyes, sees John’s pinched face swimming in front of him. They’re still in the car, but it’s stopped moving. “You fuckin’- been parked here half an hour, baby, you wouldn’t- fuck, you’re freezing.”

Gale is. He becomes aware of it like falling; gradually, then all at once, full-bodied shudders ripping through him, making his teeth chatter. He hugs his arms tighter around himself, fingers brushing against his shaking ribs. He looks groggily out of the window. The light outside is milky, but not as if it’s fading- more like it’s just begun to birth.

“Wh’re are we?” he says. His jaw is clenched against the chill in his bones, pushing his words out in odd slurs.

“Uh,” John’s head whips around. As he comes further into focus, Gale can see the shadows under his eyes have darkened still, a vaguely wild expression in his face. “I don’t know. Been drivin’ all night. I think- fuck, I think I had the window open too long or somethin’, Buck, I turned around a while back and your lips were all blue.”

Gale absently presses trembling fingers to his mouth. “’M fine.”

“We gotta find that diner,” John says. “Hey, Gale, look at me. When’s the last time you ate, huh? Can you remember for me, darlin’?”

Gale scrunches his eyes shut again. Tries hard to think. “Y’mean solid food.”

He hears John hiss. “Ah, shit.”

Gale grunts around the pain in his stomach. “Don’t go back, Bucky, please.”

“We’re not, don’t worry, I wouldn’t,” John says. He’s shuffling around, now, and Gale reopens his eyes to see him leaning into the back of the car, knocking aside various debris and pulling out a bag of chips. Gale wrinkles his nose, and shakes his head. “Look, I know you’re stubborn, but I’m freaked out, alright, baby. You don’t look so hot, Buck.”

“’M fine,” Gale says. He musters up more conviction, sitting straighter in his seat despite the stiffness in his spine. “Just give me a jacket.”

“I haven’t got one, Buck, it’s fuckin’ July.” John drops the bag of chips, continuing his root around until he finds a can of coke. Gale sets his jaw at the glaring red of it. “Just half. Buck, c’mon. American staple, huh? Goes with the whole trip. Just a bit of sugar, baby, then we’ll find that heart shaped bed. It ain’t half as bad as that shit you get back there, is it?”

Gale’s nostrils flare. John’s impossible when he’s got a bee in his bonnet, and Gale takes the offending can if only to shut him up; get him driving once more. He cracks it suspiciously. Takes a sniff. 

“Windin’ me up, now, Gale, it ain’t gonna hurt you,” John says. He turns to the wheel either way. Shoves the key in the ignition and looks back at him with a pointed scowl.

“You ain’t never cared before,” Gale says. He’s still looking at the tab of the can with disdain. 

“Never been this far from fuckin’ medical advice with you before,” John says. “Didn’t think I needed- fuck, was this stupid?”

“Jesus, Bucky,” Gale says. “It’s fine. I’m fine. Look.”

Gale bites down on his bravado. Inhales deep and shaky, fingers denting the can with the force of his grip, the little click click click of the bending metal pacing with the thrum of his heart. He takes a sip. Nausea washes over his tongue like thick honey. Every sugary pop of the soda on his taste buds tingles all the way down to his empty, clenching stomach, heavy in it, and poisonous. He hasn’t tasted anything so good in years. John’s eyes are boring into the side of his head as he turns the car out of the shoulder. Gale drinks down another gulp, larger and stinging. So, so sweet. He lowers the can, licks his lips, gathering the stray, sticky droplets, and tries not to moan in wretched pleasure. He turns to John instead, watching his jaw grind against the tug of a smile.

“Okay?” Gale says. 

“Okay when you stop damn shakin’,” says John. 

He puts his hand on Gale’s leg, leaning past the gear stick as they veer back onto the highway. His long fingers reach around to the soft underside of Gale’s knee, his thumb brushing gently at the lower part of his inner thigh. Gale tries not to bounce his leg at the feel of sugar filling his veins. 

“Heart shaped bed, huh, Bucky?” he says. 

John smirks at the road. “Drink your fuckin’ soda.” 

Gale curls his bony fingers over John’s hand on his thigh. Grimaces, and takes another sip. 

“There he is,” John says. “Y’alright, aren’t you?”

“Yeah, Bucky,” Gale smiles. “Told you so.”

[tortured-gaylor]

from the journal of ava: but daddy i love him notes

according to swifties, this is a little mermaid reference: she gave up her voice to be with the man she loved

idk i haven't seen the little mermaid since i was 5, i'll take their word for it

i just learned these people only raise you to cage you

links back to who's afraid of little old me?: "you wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me"

growing up famous, she was never able/allowed to just be or do what she wanted. this is also made clear in the miss americana documentary. seems like scott especially tried to keep her quiet and caged

she has used cage imagery often throughout her career in music videos and visuals (look what you made me do music video, the shadows in the visuals during the midnights set at the eras tour, the speak now ornament, the glass cage in the willow music video,...)

the spotify library installation also had a cage, but the birds were free on another shelf

sarahs and hannahs in their sunday best, clutching their pearls sighing "what a mess" i just learned these people try and save you cause they hate you

this seems to allude to religious people being homophobic. they try and "fix" you by praying for you

she's the odd one out, doesn't fit in with the norm (the sarahs and hannahs)

they slammed the door on my whole world, the one thing i wanted

again with the controlling

is the muse the whole world? is it simply freedom? or is it something else entirely?

now i'm running with my dress unbuttoned, screamin' "but daddy i love him"

like the love story music video

song themes are similar to love story as well with the disapproving father

i'm having his baby... no i'm not but you should see your faces

GAGGED

you should have indeed seen my face

dutiful daughter, all my plans were laid

idk what to tell you

it's queer

her parent (likely her dad) planned her whole life out for her and she fulfilled this "destiny", even if that life doesn't suit her

tendrils tucked into a woven braid

links back to seven: "your braids like a pattern"

the saboteurs protested too much

homophobes

lord knows the words we never heard, just screeching tires and true love

links back to getaway car

this could mean words of acceptance, likely from the church(goers) again

i'll tell you somethin' 'bout my good name it's mine alone to disgrace

she's done being sheltered and ready to make her own decisions, decide who she is all by herself

god save the most judgmental creeps who say they want what's best for me sanctimoniously performing soliloquies i'll never see, thinking it can change the beat of my heart when he touches me and counteract the chemistry and undo the destiny you ain't gotta pray for me me and my wild boy and all this wild joy if all you want is gray for me, then it's just white noise and it's just my choice

this is her saying people have no business being all up in her relationships. they seem to think they have the moral upper hand and get to decide what's best for her, even if they don't know her or her partner at all

she pulls an uno reverse on them by asking god to save them, just like they did for her

this could mean she's gonna love who she loves, despite what the world wants/expects from her

this calls back to the people "saving" her cause they hate her (so homophobes again)

this is a reach but did they try to strip her of her pride colours and she finally decided to ignore these very loud voices?

scandal does funny things to pride but brings lovers closer

✨ shared trauma ✨

for real though, scandal could be her being outed by whatever tabloid

forced her deeper in the closet, but closer to the (also closeted?) muse

we came back when the heat died down

the scandal forced them to keep a low profile for a bit but they came back (stronger than a '90s trend?)

went to my parents and they came around

reminds me of That™ miss americana scene

also reminds me of how the dad in love story eventually came around

time, doesn't it give some perspective?

there's something in this line but i'm not sure what

[mysuperlaserpiss]

Sometimes my take on Sonic and co. vs how they are actually written in media is so jarring. Idk, I'm not digging the incorporation so many real life things into Sonic. It's becoming a pet peeve.

Like how Amy is a fan of true crime podcasts??? Major crime like murder is a regular occurrence in the Sonic world?? Hello??? Can we unpack that?

I highly doubt she would like true crime because she would feel far too much for the victims. Look at how she is with the Kocos in Sonic Frontiers- SHE WOULD FEEL TOO MUCH.

Another big thing that I REALLY don't like is Taylor Swift being a thing in Sonic. And how Amy and Shadow are Swifties. That doesn't sit right with me.

Bottom line is??? I hate fun I guess?? I'm overthinking and taking things too seriously and I have dishes to clean-

[sonknuxadow]

they should’ve replaced taylor swift with hot honey

well murder of sonic came a few months after the frontiers twitter takeover so the reference would have made no sense especially considering that iirc everyones answer was either referencing or directly naming a real life artist or song . but yeah shadow and amy going to see hot honey is real and true and shadow and amy being swifties is FAKE and WRONG !

[allamericanb-tch]

[joesalw]

I'm actually being so serious when I say swifties are mentally ill. Because the way they think it's normal and ok to treat a human being they never even freaking met like this is apalling. There's celebrities I don't like, there's people I don't like and yet I would be embarrassed for myself if I ever stomped so low as to behave in such a vile inhuman way. There's a thing called character and this is straight up bullying. There's no way to justify something like this. And it says a lot about the chief of this cult that she doesn't lift a finger to stop this. And then goes on a rampant to complain when it's done to her. All of this is disgusting

They are so much into this parasocial relationship with Taylor that they do the most horrible things ever. I have seen swifties doxxing a girl on tiktok and send emails to her college to just because she dared to say something against Taylor. One was hiding medicines of her dad, who's a heart patient, just because he didn’t like Taylor Swift. They are some of the most vile and sick peole in the planet hiding behind the Taylor Swift pfp to spread their negativity. And then they have the cult supporting each other because anyone with a Taylor Swift pfp is on their positive side. They will defend anyone who's associated with Taylor but switch immediately as soon as they sense an ending of the relationship. It’s crazy how they were praising Olivia Rodrigo and calling her Taylor's daughter a year ago, but as soon as they saw Olivia succeeding more and Taylor claiming for her royalties, they switched and called Olivia crazy stuff. Not so long ago, they were defending Taylor and Joe's need for wanting a private life but as soon as they broke up, it was suddenly Joe's fault for keeping her in the basement. They even went to the extent of defending Matty Healy because Taylor was dating him at that point. They called Jake Gyllenhaal a groomer but didn’t bait an eyelash when Taylor was dating an underaged Kennedy. With 1989 tv they dragged the hell out of harry and slutshammed him for a relationship that happened a decade ago but with the same breath they defended Travis about his mysogynistic, fatshaming, slur tweets because it happened in 2010. These are crazy people who will do anything to prove how their Tayprincess is always right. Most of them don't even like her real personality, it's mostly created in their head and how they want to interpret her action. A sick and twisted parasocial relationship. The fandom is getting sicker and sicker everyday as it keeps growing. It’s uncontrollable at this point. They have no social concerns and they view the real life as their twitter feed too. They even went to an extent of asking Joe publicly if he ever plans to have a career outside Taylor Swift's shadow. All that because they believed Joe was a beard and Taylor is dating Karlie. I can write essays on how toxic her fandom has become and how they get more aggressive day by day. She never does a thing to stop this kind of harassment because by the end if the day, they don't even listen to her...

OCEANA TO HALT GROUP ACTIVITIES TO FOCUS ON SOLOS !!

❪ 240303 ❫       /       published on march 03 , 2024

this definitely was a shocker to most of us!

on the first sunday of March, OCEANA's self founded label, ENCA LABELS, released through a statement that the group would be halting their activities (as a group) for the time being.

the group has been silent with no releases since the wrapping of the promotions for their album "midnight shadows" in October.

while their fans, pearls, had been eagerly waiting for a news of a comeback, they were surprised to hear about this news!

one fan stated on twitter,

@.ceaceana

we were waiting for the girls to comeback as a group but as usual, the jokes are on us. they really keep us on our toes don't they? 💀🤣

another showed their endless support!

@.elesbighrt

yea we were surprised at the news but that doesn't mean that we don't support the girls! I'm so excited to see what each one of them has in store for us!! can't wait!!!

The statement by the company also stated that the solos of the members would be released one by one and that member is the whole person behind their solo!

in simpler words, it means that behind each member's solo, its that members idea and they are the sole mastermind behind it!

while this news was being published, the oceana members seem to be on a well deserved break at the moment!

according to her instagram, sage seem to be back in her hometown and is also exploring the European countries!

Cordelia seem to be doing the same but in the US! she posted herself at the golden gate bridge a few days ago captioning it with just the American flag! according to her live she did on the 1st, she's going on a little US road trip with her best friend!

Blaire is the one that we know the least about. but a few locals had recently seen her at jeju with her parents just relaxing around the beach and cafe hopping!

Skye is on a true vacation! she's seen, both on her instagram and in real life in Japan for a few weeks! she was seen at the eras tour on all the Japan dates and even exchanged friendship bracelets with the other pearls/swifties! she even posted a picture of herself and taylor to her instagram!

and lastly, the maknae, naomi never seems to be less busy! a few fans saw her a fee days ago at the miumiu event where she's an ambassador! but to the fans that did meet her there, when asked if she was gonna take a break, she said that she is going home for a few weeks and is planning to travel with her family!

we love that the girls are enjoying their time on break!!

LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK !!

[ +102 , -20 ] honestly? good for the girls! when you think abt it, every artist has to shine in their own ways so slay oceana!!

[ +30 , -110 ] break? what did they even do for them to be on a break now

[ +202 , -27 ] I'm so happy for them 😭🫂

[ +50 , -6 ] I feel like this is the best time for them to take this decision

[ +2 , -101 ] they should disband at this point they've lost their originality

[ +12 , -30 ] they should die for what they did to my poor taehyun

things i genuinely accept as canon from the twitter takeovers:

-tails has trouble reading, possibly dyslexia

things i enjoy and treat as """canon""" specifically for my own canon-bending purposes:

-their adventures are real in-universe and companies make games, movies, shows, etc following their hijinx, but no media is 100% accurate to their adventures

things i treat as """canon""" because fuck the rest of y'all for being haters:

I literally don’t except any Shadow music taste headcanons that aren’t goth music or like Frank Sinatra. He literally just figured out what synthesizers are and they still freak him out a little. Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion though unless you call him a Swiftie then I kill you in real life.

[letstrywritingmaybe]

It’s august, which means as a Swiftie the smell of salt in the air is upon us, but most importantly it is the birth month of @muslimintp-1999-girl 🩵 I adore you so so much and I wanted to do something special for you. It’s not detco related, but rather a fandom I’m not really in, but your love for these characters and for the ship really got to me. I do have to preface this in saying, I have only read the books and have no interest in the show (I also didn’t even like the books but I know I’m not the target audience). I also don’t really ship this ship, but Jere was my favorite character and the only one I cared for in the series because of how real he is. So this is my attempt at writing a jelly fic, here goes nothing.

(Fair warning it’s more angsty than I anticipated… sorry! I love you!)

Is It Cool That I Said All That?

Summary: Jeremiah’s pov

“Cause I like you. It’s as simple and as complicated as that.”

Belly Conklin will be a Fisher one day. Everyone knows this, everyone agrees this is true.

Just as everyone knows the one she will marry is going to be Conrad.

Laurel knows this, Steve knows this, my own mother wished for this. Hell, even Con himself knows this is the way things are meant to be.

I know this too, but sometimes… sometimes I wish it could be me. But that’s just too much to ask, isn’t it?

Belly doesn’t love me the way she loves Con, and that really sucks.

Who am I kidding? My brother is the best person I know, even if we don’t always get along. He’s perfect, and who wouldn’t love a perfect person? Someone who can do no wrong.

Dad favors him, Laurel has a special connection with him, Steven looks up to him, Belly loves him, and Mom…

Then there’s me, I love him too. Even if he’s an asshole sometimes, even if he thinks he has to take all the responsibility and do everything on his own, even when I want to be pissed off at him and scream how much I hate him…

The truth is, I don’t. Not one single bit. Because us Fishers, we stick together. It’s what Mom would want, and if I’m honest, it’s all I ever wanted too.

All my life I’ve lived under his shadow, hoping someone else would see me instead. And once upon a time, I really thought Belly had seen me.

She’s my best friend, I’ve loved her all my life. How can I not? She and I, we have something special. Even if she’ll always love Con, I know there’s a tiny spot reserved in her heart just for me.

The thought used to be enough for me. Wanting was enough.

Belly likes to think she’s the only one who looks forward to summer at the beach house, but she’s wrong. We all did in our own ways. Summers at Cousins was the only thing that kept us going. Especially when we found out about Mom… and even after, it was still the only thing that kept me going.

The sound of Belly’s voice calling me stirs me from my thoughts. For a second I thought I was hallucinating. Why would she be here with me when she could be with Con?

“Thought I would find you here.”

“You were looking for me?”

“Don’t sound so surprised.”

She wears a teasing smile, but her fidgets let me know she’s feeling nervous. She’s not very good at hiding her emotions, but then again, neither am I. We’re both too impulsive, too invested in those we care about.

“What can I help you with, Belly?”

“I can’t just come looking for you because I want to? Why do you think I want something from you?”

“Because it’s about Con and he’s my brother, who else would you ask? Since you’re not with him now, something must’ve happened. He was probably being an asshole again. Don’t let him get to you Bells.”

“… Not everything with me is about Conrad.”

“History tells us otherwise.”

“And since when did you pay attention to history?”

“I don’t, but I pay attention to you. I know you, Belly, it’s always about Conrad.”

She stays silent hearing my words. It’s true, we both know it is, but her next words sends my heart leaping.

“What if… what if I don’t want it to be about him… All my life I thought it was him, but… what if I’m wrong? What if it doesn’t have to be him?”

“But you want it to be him…”

“I did, yes, but not anymore. I’m tired of this Jere. I just… I don’t know, I guess I’m still trying to figure it out.”

“I don’t think I have the answers you’re looking for.”

“Maybe not, but after everything that’s happened… all of the confusion and the hurt… dealing with it by myself, I realized that was the last thing I wanted. And then I thought of you, how you must be feeling the same way. Feeling alone and needing someone to be there, but everyone failing you. I was one of those people too, and I’m sorry Jere. I should’ve been there for you more.”

“You’re here now.”

“Yeah, I am.”

My heart aches seeing the tears well up in her eyes, as she struggles to keep them contained. My feet have a mind of their own, taking a step forward to close our distance.

The urge to wrap my arms around her to hold her tight is one I cannot control. I have to force myself to stop, this will only hurt more when she runs back to Con.

She’s the one to pull me into a hug, wrapping her arms around my waist as she buries her head against my chest.

“I missed you, Jere.”

The fight to stay levelheaded dies, she missed me. How can I deny her when she finally chooses to come to me for once?

Holding her close, I relish in this moment. Savoring every little detail to burn into my memory.

After a beat, I slowly let go. It’s the last thing I want to do, but I know it’s what I have to.

She’s caught off guard by my actions, she wasn’t ready to let go. The implications make my heart race, it takes everything in me not to jump in head first as I often do. Especially when it comes to her.

“Jere?”

“It’s getting late, we should probably go back before the others get worried.”

“Why are you pushing me away too! After I bared my heart to you! How could you do this to me!”

“I’m not trying to do anything, it’s just that I! I can’t.”

“Can’t what, Jere?”

“I can’t go through this again… it’s not fair to you or me or Con.”

“Why do we always have to bring him up!”

“Because you like him, Belly, no. You love him, and you always will.”

“What does my feelings for him have to do with us!”

“Cause I like you. It’s as simple and as complicated as that.”

I watch as a mixture of emotions flash in her eyes. I don’t know how to feel now that I’ve said the words out loud. Why did I say them? When I know it won’t change anything.

“Forget it, just forget I said anything at all, I wasn’t…”

“What if I don’t want to forget, Jeremiah Fisher? What then?”

My heart pounds, the whole world seems to stand still, my mind goes completely blank. Is this real? Is this really happening? Or am I just dreaming again?

“I’ve been thinking a lot, and you know, before there was Conrad and Belly. There was Jere and Belly. Even with everything that happened, there’s still Jere and Belly, right?”

“There will always be Jere and Belly. You’re my best girl, my best friend.”

“And you’re mine. Best friend, that is. Taylor will be mad if I didn’t say she’s my best girl.”

We both laugh just imagining the temper tantrum that would surely follow, if she heard us right now. It breaks the tension that’s been lingering around us. It feels nice to be able to laugh about something dumb together again.

There’s no hesitation this time when I wrap my arms around her again, smiling when I feel her reciprocate.

“I missed you too, Bells.”

She holds me tighter then, I can feel her relax into my embrace, and I think to myself how perfect this moment is. Even if it started out messy, I wouldn’t trade what we have for the world.

She peeks her head up looking into my eyes. There’s a shyness about her that I rarely get to see up close. It’s usually directed towards Con, but this time it’s because of me.

“Where do we go from here, Jere?”

“Wherever you want. We can go slow, nothing has to change, until you’re sure.”

“What about you? What do you want?”

“I want you to be happy, Belly, truly and genuinely forever and ever. You’ll always have me, there will always be Belly and Jere.”

It’s delicate, the relationship we have. Just as I know the feelings she still has for Con and vice versa. But for now, I can pretend she’s mine.

Belly Conklin will be a Fisher one day, and maybe just maybe, I will be the one she chooses to wed.

A/N: Okay, I really did want to put more fluff, but it was just not happening. I have many many feelings about Jere, so it just kinda spilled out here. I never thought I would write a fic for this fandom cause I really was not into the series, I ranted about it on my main blog, but I kept seeing you reblog things from the show and I couldn’t get the story out of my head. So I had to write something, and I have you to think for that, so happy birthday to you my beloved mutual! I hope you get everything you wished for! I love you lots! <3

hi! i’m the one who sent the (or one of) the anon about Brad. it’s essentially just what the other person in your ask box said about making fun of the fan base (mainly the female part.) he made a few reddit post to which everyone in the comments made fun of Brad for doing, along with the mods who deleted the post and told him to stop trying to drum up unnecessary controversy. i’m happy i now know more people are tired of his blatant misogyny towards the female fan base. i didn’t mean to cause any worry or upset towards Matty, i don’t know how much he contributes to Brad’s post. i just have been finding it strange that all Brad does is find videos of swifties/75 fans to make fun of them (Taylor herself too.) and that’s essentially his entire schtick/job. a lot of people in the reddit thread summed up my thoughts better than this could’ve. i don’t use twitter so i don’t know what people are saying there. either way i don’t think any of this is Matty’s fault, i think Brad kind of sucks and it just so happens Matty works with him here and there.

this might be a stupid place to say this, but tumblr is a lot kinder then reddit/twitter. does anybody else not like this whole thing with brad troemel? i don’t know why matty likes him/employs him. he set up a “the 1975 fan union” on instagram and posted about it on 3 or 4 reddits. majority of his post are so directly making fun of the female fan base. i understand the making fun of chronically online people who are deranged but this is just annoying. also him bringing up / posting about taylor swift (also strange if her and matty actually did date, to post about this man you work for ex-girlfriend.) sooo often. also he just says the most obvious things that anybody who has had a phone for longer than 3 days would know. he just post annoying infographics that has been all regurgitated stuff matty has been saying since like 2017 (start of abiior era.) i love matty and stuff but this era of infographics, what’s real/what’s fake, joking about what’s happening in the middle east/how there’s nothing he can do about it, and brad troemel era is so annoying. his cynicism in the start of the bfiafl era was very interesting and thought-provoking. now it’s just reusing the same boomer logic over and over. again this isn’t hate towards any fans or matty himself, just an observation from a huge fan.

combining both your asks into one, i hope you don't mind <3

i've seen a lot of opinions about this flying around, and i want to point out that we don't know for sure who's behind it but at the same time it does reek of brad and just also... a lot of misogyny in general.

i don't mind matty making fun of us in a haha light hearted way like sure some people do really take it too far and end up being the butt of the joke but someone else coming out the woodworks and making fun of people who literally only want to support their fav artists and enjoy their art and music feels like a slap in the face.

i don't want to jump to conclusions and say that matty knew or he's encouraging it or whatever because obv we don't know any of the behind th scenes but if it is really brad then i find it hard to believe that matty/the band won't know.

you, and a lot of other people have said that satvb got old really fast and to some it also feels like a shadow of atvb which i don't want to comment on because 1) i have never seen any of the shows live and 2) i feel like it's still an evolving thing and i don't want to have a fixed opinion of it until we have the full picture, i.e. the end of the tour. that's not to say tht your opinion isn't valid, i completely see where you're coming from.

based on what i know about brad from others, yeah i'm not a huge fan either but at the same time i'm not at all familiar with his art outside of his connection to the band.

anyway if it is actually him -- loser behaviour. i hope he has explosive diarrhea while proposing to the love of his life.

that's all, my apologies for the plethora of typos, i'm too hungover to correct them rn
