who has the most potential of stirring things up?
my bets ? lulu ( we all know you kissed her . we do not care . ) who seems to kiss anything that breathes , and in that vein , bel who just can't keep it to herself . gemma , who is ... ahem ... "heartbroken" , franny who might actually be heartbroken ( bless her heart ) , or henri , who seems just about ready to go to war for her .
beware the single women with broken hearts this holiday . that being said , on a completely unrelated note , you single yet sylvia ? ( @racingfm , @belsalazar , @gemmajcmes , @daydreamsfm , @hartbcats ! )

As a certified Season 3 costumes hater, I think they did Kate especially dirty. In my opinion, Kate's outfits in Season 2 outshine all other outfits in the whole Bridgerton.
Meanwhile, in Season 3, they gave her these muted, drab dresses that don't do her justice. Her worst outfit in Season 2 Is still 10 times better than any of these, in my opinion.
Actually, almost all the costumes in Season 3 look bad: tacky, cheap looking and often not even vaguely regency inspired.
Only Penelope looked nice (and sporadically, Francesca and Alice Mondrich), and even then, I wasn't crazy about her outfits, I only really liked a couple of them.
Talking about Kate's outfits, though, they are lucky that Simone's face card saved the whole situation, otherwhise most of these costumes would be indefendible, and I say this as somebody with very bad taste, clothing wise.
The first one Is...bah. Just bah. Stiff looking, not obscenely ugly, not too nice either.
The red spencer and blue dress combo was actually, cute, especially since it actually has COLOR, something really lacking in Kate's dresses this season. If only It had lasted for more than 3 seconds...
The saree inspired dress leaves me with mixed opinions. I don't hate the cut (though I've heard indian reviewers say that the draping Is nothing like a saree), but the colors don't do It.
The peacock silver overdress Is... something. Now, unlike other people, I won't complain that It looks too matronly, even thought It does, because I actually like this style. It's the rest that bothers me. The ugly plastic-y fabric, the colors that make poor Simone look ashy, the peacock prints that don't match the rest of the outfit...Terrible, truly terrible.
That gown they had her wear at Polin's engagement party Is also a big no-no for me. First, the color doesn't flatter her at all. Second, It looks way too modern even for Bridgerton's standards. I swear, I've seen something similar in that shopping center close to my former high school, sold for 20 euros. And those thin straps bother me. Don't know why, they just do.
The outfit she wears the night before Polin's wedding also leaves me with mixed opinions. The overdress Is nice, but the fabric of the dress Is weird, I cannot quite point out what Is wrong, I simply don't like It.
The dress she wears for Polin's wedding Is my least favorite. Sorry, I hate It. I hate the sheer fabric on the top and the sleeves, I hate that silhouette, I hate those hideous prints. And also the makeup.
The nightswear Is very cute, nothing bad to say about it. Again, if only we saw It for more than 3 seconds...

i wish you love | a.h.
pairing: aaron hotchner x ofc
summary: francesca sainz knows her interests. she likes the dark, crime, profiling, medicine, military, guns, and suits. imagine her surprise when these things come as a person... granted, a "fourty-something unit chief" person, but a person nonetheless.
series masterlist
iii. three: a song to sing
with the week almost ending, francesca sat on reid's desk, lounging and disturbing him in any way that she can. he was busy finishing up his paperworks, which usually don't take him long so she presumed that something was wrong—utterly wrong for the boy wonder to be staring blankly at his monitor for ten minutes now while tuning her ramblings out.
"spence, hands down the tenth and eleventh doctors are the best."
he sighed at that, tapping his fingers together as he explained, "they are great, no doubt—"
"i'd let them run wild on me." she interjected calmly while checking her nails, nodding as if the idea's typical.
he fully looked at her, opening his mouth to speak only to close it and gather his thoughts, "i... how are we exactly judging them? because i think there might be a miscommunication here."
franz feigned ignorance as she turned her head to him and tried to look as innocent as she could muster. spencer is once curious man, and he'll stop at nothing to understand a concept he did not.
luckily, garcia arrived with emily to save her. the girls are already passionately exchanging points when they reached the two, their beloved tech girl throwing a question to the boy.
"what's your mbti?"
"infp, yours?"
penelope squeeled at that, gushing to reid at being only a letter different from him, "enfp!"
emily smiled at her excitement, nodding to the genius, "i'm surprised you even took the test."
"myers-briggs personality test is almost accurate. it was officially researched and the results are valid." he turned to emily with a smug grin in his his tone, "you're enfj."
prentiss rolled her eyes with a smile, hinting everyone that reid was indeed correct. garcia looked at the young trainee, "yours, franz?"
"me? intj," she answered casually, leaning her arm on the desk divider.
the pink-loving woman narrowed her eyes at her, pulling her head back as her voice came out pitchy in disbelief, "no, you're not."
"all that flirting and confessions and you're a t?" emily backed her, brows crossing but with a humorly scoff.
franz pressed her lips together in a thin smile, nodding slowly in reassurance, "73 percent."
"that's high." she grinned at their bemusement, amazed herself how they could not believe her mbti.
reid narrowed his eyes in analysis of the girl's previous behaviors, "if you really think about it, she has a tendency to rule by thinking rather than feeling."
the dark-haired woman chuckled mockingly as she shook her head, "oh, i don't think there's much thinking involved when she throws herself at the boss-man."
sainz could do nothing but laugh at her reasoning, which in all honesty, she could not say it was entirely untrue.
"how come you're introverted as well?" garcia grimaced in annoyance that the girl's mbti seems to be exactly the opposite of what hers should be.
"oh, you don't know me, penelope." she grinned teasingly with pride in her voice.
prentiss nodded upwards as she crossed her arms. the rest followed her line of sight, "what about him? what do you all think his mbti is?"
francesca smugly grinned in certainty, "he's an i and t for sure."
pen squinted to their boss, pursing her lips on thinking, "istp?"
"is that gideon?"
reid stated with disbelief as he saw the familiar man walk in the bullpen. the others turned at once by that, eyes widening as the man looked at them with his usual tight smile.
"oh my god, that's gideon." emily breathed out, their eyes following the man as he climbed up the stairs.
seeing the man arriving from his office blinds, hotch stood up and walked to his door, opening it slightly as he peeked out to call for her.
"sainz, in my office."
· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·
after exchaning their pleasantries, gideon had no chance to even blink before he saw the utter look of besottedness from the girl to her chief. he stared between the two inquisitively as he leaned back on the small shelf on the right side of the desk. franz took a seat across hotch, smiling too cheerfully for the men's liking.
hotch cleared his voice as he turned to jason before settling to the trainee in front of him, "as you know, it is mandatory for you to undergo a psychological evaluation after what had transpired."
she kept her eyes on him, listening intently—not to his words though but to his voice. he already knew the girl was barely conscious, her mind focusing on other matters and he had to roll his eyes inwardly in humor at that.
"obviously, i asked strauss to let me handle it. later on, i realized how biased my evaluations would be." he leaned back to his office chair, gesturing with his right hand to his former chief, "so, here we are. i brought gideon in to conduct the evaluations."
she grinned, turning to the older man with her eyes shining with its usual glint of mischief. franz shook her head lightly as she spoke self-assuredly, "he can't do the evaluations, sir, because he likes me."
hotch shut his eyes resignedly at her quip. the prestigious former chief, however, was less than amused, yet brows raising slightly in intrigue—a contrast to his monotone voice, "i can see that."
gideon stood up from his leaning and clasped his hand, putting her sarcasm at the back of his mind, "let's start."
he rounded the table as hotch stood up, the other taking his seat. her current unit chief moves to sit at the back of his office, silently waiting for them to start as he opted to observe.
"aaron," jason said suggestively as he puts on his glasses and opens the folder, scanning her files.
the man called did not move, his eyes narrowing at the sound of his name and refusing to acknowledge the other's gesture. with that, the older man raised his head from the paperworks to him. as he sees the all-so-familiar look from his former superior, hotch closed his eyes and sighed, standing up at once.
"wow, i've never seen him get kicked out of his own office so easily." franz chuckled lightly, her eyes still at ths sight of her boss descending the stairs. her laughter, however, dried when she turned back to gideon, only to see him looking at her pointedly.
"i've read the case report. i understand the need to take the shot."
they began the test, asking and answering questions back-and-forth, both related to the case and not. a good thirty minutes passed by with the man only using a single sheet to put down any observations. if it was a good thing or a bad thing, she had no idea.
gideon moved to more direct questions, frankly pertaining to the previous case now.
"i do not feel bad at all. is that a problem, sir?" she looked at her nails on her lap before leaning back on the chair and raising her head to him.
"it might be." gideon plainly said in observation.
"you know, i had to be prepared for this evaluation. get my facts right." he began, leaning on his back as well and removing his glasses, letting it dangle on his chest, "and so, i obviously looked at your records."
he paused for a good number of seconds, focusing at the papers in front of them in thinking of his following words before looking at her directly in the eyes, voice full of calmness and inquiry, "tell me, why did you intentionally fail your firearms proficiency?"
"how did you know?" she could not help the look of small surprise on her face as the man saw the pattern in her proficiency results.
he simply smiles at that, the gesture reminding the girl of who he is, "a trade secret."
franz chuckled inwardly at his secrecy. she pursed her lips, already knowing that her reasoning won't be enough for him, "i rather not carry a weapon, sir."
"why?" he was purely intrigued by that. a choice to not carry any firearm in this field of work... it was rare—and utterly foolish.
a playful smile slowly made its way on her lips, seeing the opening, "a trade secret."
"sainz," gideon smirked at her immediate wittiness, leaning forward with crossed fingers on the table, "do you play chess?"
· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·
after they finished, the two vacated the office, gideon nearing rossi right away. the two went to the coffee maker, probably staying there to chat lightheartedly. there was something so endearing about their small reunion, the rest of the team smiling at the sight of the two grandfathers of the bau.
"gideon's awesome—not like manly cool, but more of a grandma cool." reid stated with raised brows, the same way he shares random facts, his admiration for the man as clear as day.
a memory resurfaced in derek's mind, the old man screaming suddenly in a room facing the window as they were observing the victim's home. he shrugged at that but smiled nonetheless, "he's a bit questionable at times but he was a great chief."
francesca nodded with a soft smile as they recall their moments with their former chief, who unfortunately, she did not get the chance to work with officially. she could see it though—their description of him.
"If you could only see the look of disappointment on his face when i suck at chess." she chuckled as she shared to them her poor excuse of plays. she knew how to play, but strategizing was never her strong suit. sainz was a girl who preferred to be head-on.
she twirled around her office chair, listening to both men when jj rounded up the corner with the widest smile.
"look who's visiting!"
"why do we suddenly have a lot of visitors today?" franz questioned as she stood up from her seat, looking at her arrival. jj's grin was something the girl has dubbed as her mom grin. she removed her hands from the insides of her pocket at the realization, "jj... no."
"we thought this week must have been so stressing for you." jj began cheerily, the sounds of kids nearing them, "now, i don't know what makes you happy aside from hotch, but i do know that these kids can make everyone's day better."
her eyes widened as she finally see two boys around the same age and immediately turned back at once, as if mouthing to reid.
"spence, i do not like—"
"henry!"
she was cut off by the cheer in the voice of the boy genius, him crouching down to jj's kid. derek only laughed at her expression. awkwardness was a rare sight on the girl, moreso that it's as simple as children that causes it.
"hey... guys." franz made a pathetic attempt of a wave, her voice void of any comfort.
jack, hotch's kid, fist-bumped with morgan as little henry turned to her, "mom says you're stressed. this makes the stress go away."
she stood awkwardly as the kid hugged her, patting his back unsurely, "yeah... thanks, buddy."
sainz looked at his mother and whisper-yelled, "jj, stop making excuses to bring kids here."
"it's december!" the mother exclaimed with a chuckle, "they always visit during december."
penelope exclaimed at the sight of the kids too, showing familiarity as she ushered them forwards, "let's go, boys. your legos and other toys are still in my office."
both boys grinned at that, starting to follow garcia but turned back to the new face as they took hold of her hands.
"wha—no, no," she protested, finding it futile as they finally reached the doors just by the kids dragging her.
it's going to be a long day.
· • —– ٠ ✤ ٠ —– • ·
"how did it go?" hotch asked with curiosity dripping from his tone as he entered his office again, closing the blinds for some privacy.
"great," gideon stood up from the seat, his eyes lingering on her name on the folder. he tapped his fingers on it before looking back to aaron, "she has a lot of potential. where did you find her?"
"from a lecture," he replied simply, crossing his arms on his chest, "feedback?"
his former chief's brows narrowed a bit at his short and vague answer. he mentally noted that before divulging his observations, "i do not think the case and the encounter affected her much. she has a strong personality, high loyalty and confidence, and understands the job and its demands. she is not easily affected."
hotch nodded at that, seemingly relieved, "that's good. she's fit for field duty then?"
"give this report to strauss."
he moved forward and took the folder from the other man's hand, his eyes landing on another sheet of paper with scribbled notes that he can only presume as something that should not be disclosed.
"she will be an excellent agent and profiler," gideon sighed as he kept his eyes to the man, observing even the slightest change in his expression, "good thing we got her first."
"jason, what does this mean?" hotch finally looked back at him as he gestured on the paper, confusion apparent on his features.
"she's very turbulent." he pursed his lips as he explained his analysis of her actions and disposition, "so far, manipulation and lack of empathy and remorse are the only apparent signs."
"still, i stand by what i said first, and those qualities are what exactly makes her just a potential one." he walked from the desk to the windows, maintaining his gaze outside as he continued, "francesca's incredibly self-aware, aaron. i think she might even already know she's all i'm explaining right now."
jason could not help but compare her to a bird. what kind? he doesn't know yet. perhaps, the reason is because the girl has not fully hatched yet.
what she will be? the world is yet to know.
"for what it's worth, she likes you," he breaks the silence and the tension from the newfound information as he turned back to look at hotch's expression. he could see his eyes reading the page over and over again, yet stopping at once by the mention, "genuinely."
he neared him again, asking with genuine interest. hotch was sharp. he was not someone who gets side-tracked easily, "did you really not know?"
aaron clicked his tongue lightly at that, putting down the file, "that she's bordering on aspd? of course, not."
"then you were right to call me." gideon stated suggestively, watching as hotch's jaw hardened ever so slightly, "maybe, your judgement is indeed biased."
he apologizes if he was having a hard time believing it—that the girl who's laughing and playing with his son and henry just meters away from him has those qualities. francesca is a young adult—a very rocky, confusing, and unstable age.
and so, he continues to tell himself that as he descends the stairs from his office.
the previous unit chief caught up with the others for a bit as sainz turned and immediately grinned to him as always.
she narrowed her eyes at him in mock-thinking, her fingers resting on her chin as she hummed, "sir, let me guess your mbti. you're istj, aren't you?"
this girl could not possibly have psychopathic tendencies. his mind scanned through each and every interaction they had, and he came up with nothing. for some reason, he could not help the the feeling of protectiveness over her. perhaps, gideon was wrong.
perhaps, gideon just doesn't know her.
and so, he allowed a small smile grace his lips as she maintained her sight on him, grinning so widely with pride as if knowing she was right.
before he could even answer, the boys dragged her away to play again. franz groaned at them stealing her time with the boss, yet a genuine smile appeared on her features as she tickled jack upon catching him.
this girl in front of him is not what gideon says.
but perhaps, like gideon, he doesn't know her as well.

sick day based
young jj
1K words
it had been a few weeks since JJ watched Francesca die and she couldn’t get the girls scream out of her head. no matter what she did.
emily has suggested she have more time off but jj wasn’t taking it - convincing everyone she was fine. everyone else was fine so was she.
they were in the office now and it was a day of paperwork, no new cases. everyone was joking and getting along in the bullpen, but JJ felt so unbelievably vulnerable. today would have been Francesca’s birthday. no one else seemed to care. no one else did care! it made her so mad, so upset.
she blamed herself for what happened to that young girl, she couldn’t not. but all the internalised anger wasn’t healthy.
since that day, she hadn’t been little. not that the team knew that. usually she dealt with it on her own or emily would come over but emily was busier now.
“JJ,” emily said coming down the stairs. “i just sent you an email, can you get it done asap for me please?” she said, walking past. JJ gulped and nodded, opening the email.
there was something wrong on her report. about the case.
she glanced it over and felt her chest go tight. she tried looking over the words but it was too hard, she felt dizzy.
JJ pushed out her chair and turned on her heels.
“JJ, hey,” emily gasped, grabbing her wrist. the whole team were watching her.
“get off,” JJ said, shaking her arm.
“what’s wrong?” emily asked, not letting go.
“i said get off!” JJ screamed, ripping her hand away. “leave me alone! do your own stupid report! leave me alone, get out of my god damn hair emily!” she ran from the room, heading straight to her safe place. she barged in the room, not thinking to knock and slid down the door- sobbing heavily into her arms.
the whole team was shook.
“i only asked her to do a report -“ emily said, perplexed.
“today is Francesca’s birthday,” spencer told the team.
“that girl from the case a few weeks ago?” tara asked.
“oh, no wonder she’s upset-“ luke sighed. the case had upset him too but it took jj to a whole new level.
emily sighed and turned to the team. “does anyone know when she was last small?” she asked, everyone shook their heads. she grabbed a bag from under jj’s desk before heading in the direction of Garcia’s office.
“whoa, pumpkin!” garcia exclaimed, seeing the blonde curl herself up at her door. she got off the chair and huddled next to her.
“JJ,” garcia whispered, stroking the girls hair.
“i sout,” Jay sobbed, her body racking with guilt. “i sout at mama,” she shook her head over and over and penelope sighed.
“that’s okay sweetie, mama won’t mind if you were upset,” penelope told her, grabbing her hand. jay shook her head, crying heavily.
“sout is bad, i bad,” she cried.
garcia sighed again and helped jj off the floor. the girl wasn’t too cooperative but garcia knew emily would come in any minute, she had to make sure the door was free.
“sit here lovely,” penelope whispefed, setting jj in her corner. it was only a small corner, one full of drawings she’d done, a blanket, some toys as well as sensory toys. JJ cried softly, looking around it.
“what’s this, hm?” penelope gasped, holding up JJ’s favourite cat toy.
“meow,” jay whispered back, grabbing it.
“meow to you too little lady,” penelope said softly. she interacted with the young girl, making sure she was distracted and wiped her tears softly.
just as jay was going to curl into garcia’s lap, one of her favourite spots, there was a knock at the door.
“it’s only me,” prentiss said behind it.
“come in,” garcia told her but jj gasped, shaking her head. none the less, the door opened and emily slid in.
“no, no mama,” jj whimpered, pushing herself into the corner.
“hey, it’s okay baby,” emily whispered, crouching beside garcia.
“mama isn’t mad baby, she can’t be mad at your cute face,” penelope chuckled, kissing jj’s cheek as she pushed herself closer.
“i’m not mad baby. reid told me what day it is,” emily whispered, picking up one of jj’s toys. jj didn’t say anything, only lowered her head.
“why didn’t you tell me sweetheart?” emily asked after a few moments.
“i fine bout it,” she shrugged.
“you’re not fine about it jay, because this happened. mama’s told you before about communicating,” emily sighed.
“no one unstan,” jj whispered.
“it doesn’t matter if we understand darling, we need to know if you’re hurting. because mama upset you by giving you the report, if i’d known i would have asked luke to do it!” emily told her.
“b b but he okay wif it,” jj whimpered, shrugging. then it clicked to emily.
“just because someone else has been okay after a case, doesn’t mean you can’t be jay. we all have our triggers, the cases that we struggle with, you’re allowed yours too.”
“i big girl.”
“you are a big girl but emotions don’t make you any less of a big girl,” emily said. she grabbed jj’s hand.
jj put her head on garcia’s shoulder, holding her mama’s hand and her cat toy in the other.
“i sowwy i sout,” she whispered a few minutes later, looking up at em through her eyelashes.
“that’s okay baby, thank you for apologising,” emily replied. she stood up, kissed jj’s head and stretched.
“how about you head home? take garcia with you and you can have a girls day?” emily suggested.
“ooh sugar plum we can go get icecream!” garcia laughed, tickling jj slightly.
“but i a big girl, i work,” jj groaned, throwing up her hands. emily laughed and helped her baby off the floor.
“i don’t think you’re able to get much work done today darling. head home and work on a surprise for mama,” emily giggled, pulling JJ into her arms.
“pwise?” JJ asked, gently. penelope perked up.
“we can make an awesome surprise for mama! let’s head off, hm?”
a few hours later, Jay and Penelope had finished their fort and were starting on their cookies when emily came through the door.
“mama!” JJ cheered, running out of the kitchen - covered head to toe in flour, batter and eggs - she jumped straight into emily’s arms, wrapping her mama in her love.
“well hello baby!” emily laughed, planting kisses to JJ’s face. emily was so, so glad jj was feeling better. sometimes thats all she needed, a little time out.
“i wove you mama,” jj whispered, she put her head on emily’s shoulder as she walked them through the house to the kitchen.
“i love you too baby,” emily replied, smiling ear to ear at her happy girl.

My opinion:
I've read all the reviews, I'm just an Eddie fan blogger, so I absolutely can't give a technical opinion, but I know and know the enormous effort that goes into a show. Critics are critical as they should be, so let's not be influenced by the negative ones. I haven't seen the show in New York and I don't know if I 'll be able to see it, but I saw the one in London which completely enveloped me and immersed me in the 1930s like a vortex. If you go to see the show pls, don't think about the criticism, but listen to your feelings, which are worth much more!

I started looking up an old Comedy Zone lineup this week because I was writing a biography of Andy Zaltzman and wanted to see who'd done that with him, and then I fell down a small rabbit hole, and now I've accidentally taken screenshots of the Comedy Zone blurb in every Edinburgh program for the 24 years it ran (1991-2014 - I think, 1991 was definitely the first and I couldn't find references to it in later programs) and then made a list in text of all the lineups by year. I've done things like this before and usually there is at least some sort of point to it, but in this case it really is just autism, I saw a chance to make a list and I took it. It's not for any larger thing. But it might be kind of fun to look at?
The Comedy Zone was a thing where Avalon picked a few of its new people and had them perform as a mixed bill in the middle of the night throughout the Edinburgh Festival. As far as I can tell it was very frequently people who had not done a solo Edinburgh show before that year, but would do their first one the following year, so they were about that level of new.
I find it slightly interesting that I've heard of at least one person in all those bills, two or three in most of them. All four in 2000, 2009, 2011, and 2007. The 2007 thing I know in further detail from John Robins' Chortle blogs that chronicled his Comedy Zone experience from that year. Blogs that I highly recommend reading (archives exist from July and from August) - to anyone who shares my weird interest in Edinburgh Festival comedy history with a specific focus on the 00s, or to anyone who thinks John Robins is too intense now, and you would like some perspective on how much farther it used to go.
Anyway, I'm quite sure the number of people I've heard of in that list of Comedy Zone performers is disproportionate, compared to if you took a Fringe program from any of those years, made a list of all the comedians in it who had never done a full solo Edinburgh show before that year, and then took four random people from that list. The fact that Avalon could consistently pick which new people were most likely to go on to be famous (at least, famous enough for me to have heard of them, as a person in Canada in 2024), even though none of them were famous when they were first picked, is a sign that Avalon is a really really good judge of talent, and/or that there is truth in the conspiracy that Avalon secretly runs all of television. Possibly a bit of both. (My favourite example of that theory is this video, where they say at the beginning "Reds were made up mostly of Avalon acts" - no one in that video was particularly famous when it was filmed but there is a notable discrepancy now in the levels of fame from one team to the other).
The list is kind of interesting to read as a timeline of when people really kicked off their comedy careers, so it might be worth opening the link below for that. But really, I just made a pointless list of names for no reason and wanted to do something with it so I've stuck it here.
1991: Simon Munnery (as Alan Parker), Stewart Lee, Mark Lamarr, Chris & George
1992: Brenda Gilhooly (as Gayle Tuesday), Harry Hill, Al Murray, Andre Vincent
1993: Boothby Gaffoe, Woody Bop Muddy, Mathew Hardy, Mr Buckstead
1994: Julian Dutton, Dan Freedman, Kevin Eldon, Sean Percival
1995: Julian Barratt, Tony Burgess, Dave Gorman
1996: Can’t tell because it wouldn’t let me zoom in on the picture of the program, but definitely Brendon Burns was in there, possibly Ross Noble
1997: Chris Addison, Frankie Boyle, Neil Bromley, Noel Fielding
1998: Anton, Simon Evans, Gordon Southern, Dan Evans
1999: Dan Antopolski, Tony Law, Lucy Porter, Rob Rouse
2000: Danny Bhoy, Spencer Brown, Karen Taylor, Andy Zaltzman
2001: Rob Deering, Francesca Martinez, John Oliver, Karl Theobald
2002: Markus Birdman, Nick Doody, Gary Delaney, Ray Peacock
2003: Russell Howard, Matthew Osborn, Al Pitcher, Stan Stanley
2004: Tom Bell, Andy Bone, Steve Hall, Marek Larwood, Steve Williams
2005: Matt Grene, Russell Kane, Mark Olver, Isy Suttie
2006: Dan Atkinson, Lloyd Langford, Janice Phayre, Jon Richardson
2007: Barry Dodds, Carl Donnelly, John Robins, Joe Wilkinson
2008: Tom Deacon, Elis James (name misspelled in program), Nat Luurtsema, Henry Paker
2009: Jen Brister, Ed Gamble, Chris Ramsey, Gareth Richards
2010: Davey See, Ivo Graham, Josh Widdicombe, Naz Osmanoglu
2011: Hari Kondabolu, Iain Stirling, Paul Currie, Phil Wang

SEX/LIFE || 2.01 ‘WELCOME TO NEW YORK’
We gave the court my address as your part-time, temporary residence, but you haven’t spent the night there in weeks. Where have you been?
Honestly? Having the hottest sex of my life with Francesca.
Oh, wow! Well, that sounds healthy! Isn’t she your boss?
So the fuck what? She’s also the woman that’s appreciated me since day 1, and who’d been warning me about Billie for months.
[Image Description: Eight stacked gifs from Sex/Life.
Spencer stands outside a restaurant, talking on his phone with Cooper.
Spencer: Okay. Okay, hold on. I know we’re all supposed to be hating on Billie right now, but she is the mother of your children, and she will be for life, and you need to deal with that one way or the other. And hopefully, that doesn’t turn you into an asshole with a giant chip on your shoulder and hate in your heart, because trust me, I was that guy and that is not you.
Brett walks out of the restaurant.
Brett: Hey, you okay?
Spencer gestures vaguely, pulling his phone away from his face. Brett leans in to give Spencer a quick kiss. Spencer cups his face gingerly.]

From your story Romance is not dead, is there a reason with the fact that all their kids' names (or nicknames) start with a "s"? I do have a theory that Skyler is Skyler because Derek wanted her to be a part of the Smerek/Smarti thing. You know, it's the circle of the best. (this is actually from my LWL fic that I'm working on, oopsie, big secret's out). When I saw the names of their children in your story, I couldn't help to wonder if you were thinking something similar. I love their names by the way.
Yes, all of the kids are named/nicknamed with an "S" because Derek worries his children having Casey's genes will make them lame and if they have S names, they can be in the Smarti/Smerek awesomeness!
Skyler's name definitely works for that theory as well! It also fits the "~2014 cool girl daughter of model and rockstar" vibe I think that she's got going on. Derek refuses to have lame children.
Here's their kid's names and stories, just for fun, in the everyone knows nothing universe!
Kate "Scout" James Venturi- born in August of 2017, Scout's name was chosen because Casey really likes literature and Derek thinks Scout sounds cool. But last minute, Casey worries about the implications of naming her child after one of the most loathed protagonists in literature and what that's setting her up for in life, so she changes her first name to Kate, keeping Scout as a nickname. Derek just thinks she's insane, as do the children once they're old enough to learn the reasoning.
Sutton "Spud" Andromeda Venturi- born February 2019, Spud's name was chosen because Derek and Casey got stranded on a vacation in a resort named Sutton, and both like the name. She gets the nickname Spud because, well, she's a little potato spud at first and it just sticks.
Spencer "Spen/Spin" Darcy Venturi- born November 2020, Spin's name was a compromise. Casey always wanted to name a kid after Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice, but Derek is vehemently against this idea, so it's a middle name because he can justify that. Spencer is because Derek watches a ton of soap operas after he retires and he likes the Spencer family on General Hospital. And, of course, Spen and Spin are used interchangeably as nicknames because Spud and Scout aren't thrilled that there's going to be a boy in the house, so he needs a fun nickname. And as a reference to Spinner Mason on Degrassi, because I think it's funny.
Willow "Sawyer" Francesca Venturi- born May 2024, no one's really sure how Sawyer's name came to be. She's one of the twins (or babies, as they're referred to in romance is not dead), so maybe it was some weird mixup or Derek had too much free time, but she was Sawyer. Casey, however, didn't want to be seen as naming a child after Peyton Sawyer or her One Tree Hill character, so her first name was Willow, because it's a pretty tree and close enough to Sawyer they can blame the nickname on the kids. Francesca is after the second car Derek ever had, who tragically passed before they had the twins.
Shawn "Shay" Mackenzie Venturi- born May 2024, Shay's name is the result of a Boy Meets World rewatch. Derek pitched it as a name for one of the twins and it got approved, but the Mackenzie comes from Casey, who once read a book with the name and thought it was beautiful. The girl was questionable (being an axe murderer and all), but the name was nice enough to be given to her daughter.

current white men i, as an aspec woc, am currently attracted to.
Firstly, I would like to preface this post by apologizing to myself and my online persona that this is the very first post I am making (though I am no stranger to Tumblr) and will definitely be looking back and cringing. But, I digress, this is purely for personal enjoyment and the fact that I love anonymity.
Second, there is no particular order in which I rank these men, I just enjoy them and their existence and their creations. So, I guess that's how this list came to be.
Now. On to the white men!
Number one, the one and only, Matthew Gray Gubler. Not sure how this obsession spiraled, but I'm positive that it started with an edit of Spencer Reid on TikTok.
He is both a blessing and curse to my existence. I get a visceral reaction when I see him on screen as he spews out his little factoids. I also feel very ashamed and embarrassed as I watch, to completion, a thirst edit of him and all I can is a black screen with my stupid smile reflected back at me. I feel crazy.
It has come to a point where I started watching other things he stars in. (Yes, thirst watches. I am devolving.) Today, I watched The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou, which was very entertaining even without Mr. Gubler. Yesterday, it was Suburban Gothic and that one 15 minute bowling mocumentary where he humps the air. Tomorrow? Who knows. Maybe Horse Girl. Side note: I love Alison Brie.
To wrap up my blurb on Matthew Gray Gubler, I want to say 2 things. I love him as a creator and creative. He is the epitome of silly, which is something I think everyone can be just a little bit more, and he most definitely is Tumblr if Tumblr was a person. His history with art and creating is really intriguing and something I look up to! He models, acts, directs, writes, draws, and more. I just love creative people.
Next white man is Irish, has long beautiful locks, and is gigantimasaurus: Andrew John Hozier-Byrne! Professionally known as Hozier!
Unreal Unearth is actually the very first Hozier drop that I got to experience as a new-ish fan of his work. I love everything he creates; his lyrics, voice, sound has so much emotion and power. I was literally in the shower singing out Francesca as the water beat down my back.
My love for Hozier doesn't just stem from his music but also the content of his music, where he draws inspiration from, and how he's literally just some dude. Cue his handsome Squidward story and the one where he was cursing out some badgers.
The best way to describe the content of his music, in my opinion, is yearning for various releases in terms of love, hope, despair, a better understanding etc. He writes so well, and his feelings can be viscerally felt through paper and sound. He always sounds like he's on the edge of something, always anticipating a moment.
Last one, because everything comes in threes, is Thomas Straker, which is the "all things butter" guy, in case you didn't know. VERY random, I think, but I also don't think so.
Love, love, love a man that can cook. Even more so when he is nice to look at, and doesn't desecrate the food he makes (if you've seen those gross cooking TikToks where they completely violate their ingredients, you'd understand.)
Personally, I've been obsessed with this man ever since his butter series because 1) his voice is really really smooth, 2) he unapologetically loves food. Him creating these recipes and watching him eat his own dishes like they're the best thing to exist is elation.
Not sure if I'm starting to sound weird, but I think it's the same way people feel about Carmy from The Bear. Also, I cook. And it's just attractive how he cooks and enjoys cooking despite his comments telling him he uses too much butter - which is ridiculous because butter is what makes so many foods taste rich and good. Literally go shadow Gordon Ramsey as he makes a steak.
Anyways, that's it. That's the post. My laptop is about to die because I decided to write this in one sitting instead of packing because I'm leaving for school in two days. Crazy.

𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲 ;
following triggers will be found in this intro : childhood neglect , alcoholism , alcohol dependency.
[ ❀ ] born in brooklyn , new york , francesca grew up in a household that has the feeling of claustrophobia. not only was she surrounded by her mother and her parents , but there were consistently butlers , maids , au pairs and even their own personal chefs and nurses coming through the apartment. at a young age , she was shown that she came from money and that money would get her anything she wanted. the more and more her mother would shove money in her face , only forced the ideology that as long as she had money handed to her , she was loved.
[ ❀ ] questions regarding her father were always waved off , people stating that they had more important things to do than to focus on the disgusting man that gave francesca her last name. it caused her to stay up late night , hiding under her covers and writing in her journal of made - up scenarios where her father was a brilliant actor ; a professional chef that was just much too busy to stay home full time ; a man that was working hard so that he could come home to make sure that she was taken good care of , along with her mother.
[ ❀ ] she's seven when she's told that she must pack her bags quickly , that there would be no time for questions. knowing better than to question her mothers intentions , francesca packed up as much as she could fit in her luggage before she's standing in front of a house , her mother quickly pressing a kiss to her forehead and heading to the car behind them. it was in that moment that francesca realized all her dreams of her father , of her family , were simply that. dreams. she was in a foreign home , with people she didn't know and new staff ; staff that didn't understand the creative nature of francesca's mind.
[ ❀ ] the only bonus that came from the neglectful upbringing was her older brother , nate. despite francesca taking her time warming up to her brother , there was a warmth that would radiate off the other that caused franny to consistently find herself knocking on his door late at night , begging to sleep on his floor after their father downed another bottle of alcohol and was going on a drunken rant below them. despite never fearing for her life , there was a pit in the middle of her stomach , terrified that their lives were going to be just this , consistently hiding in their rooms to avoid the drunk nature of their father.
[ ❀ ] despite her home life , there wasn't a moment in franny's life where she wasn't a ball of sunshine when she was out in the public. full of energy , always wanting to hear peoples thoughts and being the mediator in arguments between peers. a curious being , she was always getting into things she probably should not have , gathering up little ideas in the back of her head for her stories that she would write when she was at home.
[ ❀ ] voted the best smile , most likely to kill someone with kindness , and using her quote in her senior year book to tell others that they could do anything they wanted , franny graduated with a bright smile on her face with her brother in the audience. since the pair of them leaving their father , she was able to encase herself in the love that she deserved , the love that her brother provided for her. it didn't take long for her influencer status to skyrocket , her instagram following jumping each night by the thousands and agencies reaching out for their products to be involved in her youtube videos.
