[awnrii]

"all we need now is an actor au" i got you bro

warning for fake blood below!

[wodimewoahtime]

hey till...... don't you have just a little too much tsundere "i'm not gay" yaoi protag power???? why are you attracting these guys like a hamster to the shredder

[suzie-bee]

in the actor au does everyone do their own stunts or do they have stunt actors? it would be fun if they brought in danny's stunt doubles since they are similar in frame to danny to play his clones (except dani because she is too small). Is dark danny played by a different actor or is he just vlad in a muscle suit

the stunt doubles also acting as clones is a brilliant idea! tho sometimes they shoot two scenes and edit them together if needed. and of course most of them have stunt doubles, they are mostly children after all.

and dark danny? with his voice being so different it cant be vlad. so they brought in super famous actor [insert name here] to guest star as him!

danny still cant believe they found someone who looks exactly like him

[ibunyang]

black tullip nomnom its nice to see that norton isnt the only one being hit with the whorification beam now that ganji is also here but i sometimes wish he took more of his clothes off.

[captainhysunstuff]

I like them being dorks.

This came out as an actor!AU sort of thing where Light's super shy when it comes to intimate scenes, lol. Or maybe they're (mostly) platonic friends and it's just super awkward for him (to smooch on camera)~. He wants to do it, but he can't stop giggling about it for some reason. XD

Updated: I was so focused on making them as OOC as possible that I missed a typo. =__=

WOW FINGER POWER STRIKES AGAIN~

[deathnguts]

Bartylus actor AU except they’re both child actors that grew up making movie after movie and they just so happened to get cast in the same projects and films over and over until it was pretty much part of their brand as actors.

Like when they’re little kids, they get cast in family movies with a lot of kids and they’re both part of the ensemble of children or main characters that are friends or something. At first it’s just chance because their families both have similar amount of influence so they just want their kids in similar movies until it happens way too many times for comfort. By their pre teen years it’s instilled into their brand and they’re rarely seen in movies without the other, but the characters they play don’t always have the same relationship, like sometimes theyre enemies, friends, and then eventually… love interests. It’s coming of age or tragic romance when they’re young but as they grow into teens and young adults they just always play either a couple in romance movies or like a will they won’t they dangerous romance in action movies. They’re both genuinely good actors and have many different roles across many different genres and play each well because they’re good at faking.

But the one thing they aren’t faking is that they do actually like each other. They became fast friends as children since they kept seeing each other on sets, their chemistry as friends on screen was real. And then they got closer and closer as they grew up and their feelings for one another started to rise but they genuinely believed it was just because they had started playing in a lot of romantic roles together and it was just because they’re good actors. It’s not until they aren’t cast as each other’s love interest, for once, and they have to do the same routine with someone else and they realize that they don’t feel the way they do with each other with these strangers. It’s not just a role, it’s real, and always has been. It feels like actual faking to pretend anything else.

woo! okay i finally scrapped up and did it! This is Rainy in the Actor au! [ au belongs to @frillsand btw! ]

Rainy is a late-night talk show host! He's one of the few puppets to host such a thing! His show was limited to nighttime due to the very few timeslots the higher ups gave him, he took what he could get though!

(it was night or either the ungodly hours of the morning...)

He invites other puppets and is usually very lighthearted, usual talk show shenanigans! However! He does often bring light to how badly puppets have it when it comes to jobs, lack of protection laws, and how hard existence is for them in general.

"Just because we look soft and fuzzy doesn't mean you can treat us like toys."

Actor!Rainy is extremely charismatic, but in a sort of soft sleepy way! (this IS Rainy we're talking about after all!) He is smooth with words and gestures, this is an act though, he is actually reserved and still sort of shy. He is a performer though! So not many would know such a thing about him!

They're very polite to their guests, and to their viewers! They often like being interactive with everyone! (He often gives merchandise and other little trinkets out for free to those in his audience!) [here is a silly thing i thought of... it's based off of this post!]

Imagine poly!141 except it's also an actor au and nobody knows they're poly so everyone including other cast members, fans, staff, hell even the director are all trying to piece together who's dating who and betting on it. It's the number one most discussed topic of gossip, and I personally think it would be hilarious if Valeria and Milena are discussing who they think Ghost likes but then Shepherd over hears them and it turns into them explaining the LGBTQ+ community or smth to gramps .

Valeria: No but Ghost is definitely into Soap did you see how they were flirting during the filming of the Alone mission?

Milena: Yeah but that was scripted so obviously there had to be some tension, it's nothing compared to when I saw Gaz driving Ghost to the set today

Valeria: So? Maybe it could just be out of convenience

Milena: Gaz doesn't even need to film anything today plus with that eye sore of a hickey on Ghost's neck, something has got to be happening between the two of them I'm sure of it

Valeria: sure enough to bet on it?

Milena *scoffing*: even money hungry off set huh?

Valeria: aren't you meant to be the money obsessed one?

Milena *rolling her eyes*: oh piss off will you

*walking up and greeting Milena and valeria* Shepherd: what are you two talking about that's gotten Milena over here so upset?

Valeria: you know what? Now that I'm thinking about it, I might actually be able to take you up on your request, don't have too much fun without me though! *Speed walks away*

Milena *chasing after her*: OI DONT JUST LEAVE WHEN ITS MOST CONVENIENT FOR YOU,YOU BASTARD!

Yeah so change of plans they actually just ditch Shepherd so my bad

Actors AU Vertin and Arcana getting along is really funny to me 😭

Arcana: ...*breaking character* Vertin, your lines?

Vertin: Arcana your ass is almost hanging outside of your dress how am I meant to be focusing???

Mesmer Jr. is actually quite chill outside of the recording, and. No one knows where Voyager came from. Literally no one.

VERTIN WHERE YOU'RE LOOKING AT?

understandable though, I agree.

It is quite funny when you think about it, but especially when you consider how they'd act. Vertin would probably be like Jenna Ortega to the actress that did the principal (I keep forgetting)

Vertin: I feel like I made most of the mistakes in this chapter. Though, in my defense, you cannot put Arcana in a dress that shows her thighs so much and expect me to concentrate.

Vertin is one of the gayest people in set, though everyone is gay she's just one of the gayest. I would add Windsong, Matilda and Isolde to the list. Another story.

Vertin: This, this beautiful woman over here, this is my wife.

Arcana: She's joking, don't worry.

They're close friends, it's Constantine, Arcana and Vertin joking together off set. In comparison to their relationship in set, it's such a whiplash to see them all playing a game of UNO or beating Constantine on chess constantly because she's actually not good off-set.

As for Mesmer Jr, she's so calm when she's not acting, really chill and supporting, though she's still slightly antisocial. She's always alone with her phone playing some games.

Mesmer Jr: Most people would assume I'm just like the character, I'm not sure about it though.

Cuts to Mesmer Jr eating Doritos sitting like she's at her own home while playing Minecraft.

People like Mesmer, she's that one kid that sits in the background but is pretty supportive.

As for Voyager, no one knows exactly where she came from or how they found her. She's exactly like her character... Maybe because she doesn't have any lines, she makes them herself.

"So, how did you find Voyager?"

"she appeared here one day and refused to leave"

"...What?"

Keeps entertaining people with the violin and during interviews she stands there like 🧍🎻

Video of Voyager in an interview with the crew of the suitcase (most are actually backstage workers that ended up being cast for some scenes) and she's just in the background staring with a happy smile.

ONION: So, Voyager, tell us. Why did you decide to join the Reverse: 1999 cast?

Voyager: ^v^

ONION: ...Very insightful. Can you tell us what's your favorite scene?

Voyager: ^v^

ONION: ... Alright.

For the fake dating thing 11 with whomever you want!

“Do you always get into fist fights on first dates, or am I just lucky?”

There is a bruise already forming on Kara’s jaw, and her hand still has a phantom ache that won’t go away. There might be a touch of blood on the lapel of her shirt, too, but she has been unable to confirm without ready access to a mirror. But it’s this—the firm click of silver six-inch heels against pavement announcing Lena’s arrival—that brings Kara an instant sense of uneasiness.

“It’s kind of in the job description,” Kara shrugs off the rhetorical question. “You know, of being a girlfriend.”

Lena Luthor has an uncanny ability to make Kara feel completely, totally inept in any situation just with a quizzical quirk of an eyebrow and a ruby-red lipsticked frown. Not because she deliberately tries to, but because that’s just the Luthor™ way. Every member of that family seems to have mastered the ability to stare hard enough to make anyone squirm. Even though Kara has known Lena since they were kids—even though they know each other better than anyone else in the world—the effect is the same.

“That might be the most idiotic thing you’ve said all night.” Despite her stoic expression, Lena’s voice is surprisingly soft. “You should have walked away.”

“That would have been worse than not punching Mike Matthews, I think,” Kara says. “Really, I’m ninety-five percent sure I’m supposed to defend your honor, or… whatever the saying is.”

And the strangest thing happens; a glimpse of amusement cracks through Lena’s frown, visible in the ever-so-gentle upturn of the corner of her mouth. “Sorry, did I miss the part where we time traveled a hundred years ago?”

“It’s—you know what I mean,” Kara says. “If I was your real girlfriend everyone would expect me to punch guys in the face for you.”

“Or,” Lena counters, “it might be overkill, since everyone knows you are not inherently a violent person.”

Kara sheepishly tugs at her collar, unable to stop herself from flushing when Lena gazes at her so pointedly. “Does it matter if everyone who meets Mike wants to punch him? Because I’m pretty sure he could make a nun violent.”

“Wow,” Lena says. “I don’t think I’ve ever heard you say a mean thing about anyone before this.”

“Yeah, well…” Kara grimaces. “Mike Matthews brings it out of me. Or maybe this stuffy party does.” Her hand unconsciously goes back to her jacket, and she has to shrug it off all at once, suddenly feeling constricted in her suit. “I don’t know how you do it.”

Lena must be far more uncomfortable than Kara is, with those high heels and the skintight dress and the overall burden of familial expectations hanging on her shoulders, but she masks it remarkably well. “Practice,” she says—sighs. “And whiskey.”

“Gross,” Kara says, unconsciously crinkling her nose as she works at undoing her tie next. “I’m more of a Capri Sun girl myself.”

A short, stunned laugh emerges before Lena can likely quell it. “Right, how could I forget,” she says, and tilts her head in that curious way she does whenever she has a question she isn’t sure how to ask. But it must pass, because her actual question comes out in the form of: “Is there a reason you’re stripping in full view of the paparazzi?” 

“Fan service?” It’s a weak joke, but it makes Lena roll her eyes in that mock-exasperated way that Kara knows would be a laugh out of anyone else. “I just need to cool off, maybe. Then I promise, I’ll be your doting girlfriend for all the cameras again.” She allows a beat before she adds, perhaps unnecessarily, “Without any violence.”

“Yes, I think my mother would very much prefer that.”

Kara laughs, remembering the horrified look on Lillian Luthor’s face with—admittedly—a bit of glee. “Yeah,” she says, “I’m sure she’s thrilled with how tonight is going.”

“Well, she does think it’s all part of a rebellious phase,” Lena muses. “She’s convinced I’m doing this just to spite her.”

Kara has felt the brunt of Lillian’s disapproval back since she first befriended Lena when they were kids, back when they were auditioning for the same movie. Honestly, there is no telling why Lillian has always disliked Kara. Maybe it was because she wasn’t a nepotism baby like all the rest of crowd, or maybe it was because Kara would sneak Lena out of the giant Luthor mansion to go to the movies, or maybe it was because when they were teenagers Kara had wrecked the Porsche (on a dare)...but that disdain has been steadfast ever since they were young, and it’s never once wavered. Everyone knows it. Lena knows it.

Which is why Kara is unable to keep the confusion out of her voice when she says, “Uh. Aren’t you?”

“Aren’t I…what?” Lena repeats, lost.

“Pretending to date me to spite her?” Kara prompts. “You know. Since she hates me?”

Lena’s brow furrows ever-so-slightly. “I didn’t mean dating you,” she says. “I mean dating in general. She thinks it’s a distraction.” She absentmindedly picks at one of the sequins on her dress, a nervous tic that she has never been able to shake. “God, it’s getting cold out here.”

The temperature is just right for Kara, but Lena has always run cold; Kara’s poked fun at her for it once or twice (or for their entire childhood, but who’s keeping track). An unbidden smile, fonder than it has any right to be, inevitably forms. “Well sit down, so you can leech some of my body heat. Besides, you make me tired just looking at you in those heels.”

“Then I’ll be colder,” Lena objects, eyeing the stone of the fountain edge that Kara is currently sitting on. “No way.”

“You’re the most high maintenance fake girlfriend ever,” Kara feigns annoyance. “Here, then. Sit on my lap. And you can put my jacket over your legs.”

It’s hard to exactly tell with the dim lighting of the streetlights, but Lena—blushes? Maybe? And immediately shakes her head. “I’m too heavy.”

“No such thing,” Kara retorts. “I’ll keep stripping if you don’t sit down, Lena. Then your mother will really have a reason to hate me.”

“You are trying to create scandal everywhere you can tonight, aren’t you?” Lena says, but doesn’t move, only crosses her arms and gives Kara an exasperated look. “It would be a hell of a front page.”

“Wow, Lena, if you wanted me naked all you had to do was ask,” Kara says, undoing the first two buttons of her shirt while Lena continues to glare. Then, for fun, she continues up until she hits the top of her bra and Lena’s jaw fully drops in alarm.

“Oh my God, Kara, stop!”

But the ruse works, because as Lena moves forward as if she’s about to button Kara’s shirt back up (or just push her into the fountain), Kara is able to wrap an arm around Lena’s waist and tug her down. Lena yelps in surprise, arms coming up to squeeze around Kara’s neck, and Kara has to hide a grin into the curls that hit her full force in the face.

“Geez, Lena, you’re like an ice cube. Don’t you own a sweater?”

“You asshole,” Lena says, but there is no bite in her voice, only annoyed defeat. “If I get glitter all over you, I’m not going to apologize.”

“I’ll let it slide, this once.” Kara doesn’t mention that there’s nothing in the world that she wouldn’t let Lena get away with. That’s the inevitable truth of being in love with this girl pretty much her whole life—Kara caves first, and she always has. Whether it was what flavor of Gatorade to get from the vending machine, or whether it was who got to sit down in the only remaining chair for a last minute casting call, or whether it was to tag along to Lena’s prom date so the boy wouldn’t try to kiss her, Kara always let Lena call the shots.

Lena exhales; Kara feels the warmth of Lena’s breath against her temple, feels the steady weight of Lena’s body as she shifts on Kara’s lap, feels the rough pattern of Lena’s dress sequins against her fingertips. “You know you’re my best friend, right?” Lena says suddenly.

Those words always make Kara’s heart skip a beat, like they’re right back to being fifteen and nervously holding each other’s sweaty hands while poring over crumpled scripts. “I’d better be,” Kara quips, if only to keep her sappiness at bay, “or I’m returning the BFF necklaces I brought as our first-anniversary gift.”

“I’m serious,” Lena huffs, and her grip around Kara’s neck tightens just a hair. “Will you let me be serious?”

“Okay, okay. One hundred percent seriousness from here on out, I promise.”

For a moment, the only sound is that of cars passing, of the trickle from the water fountain, of the faint music coming from the party. And when Lena speaks at last, it’s quiet. “I know my mom’s not the…easiest person,” she says. “And if pretending to be my girlfriend is going to make you uncomfortable because you have to deal with her, you don’t have to do it.”

“I’ve been dealing with your mother forever, Lena,” Kara says lightly. “She hasn’t been able to scare me off yet, for as much as she’s tried.”

Lena scoffs, but her hand is unmistakably tender as she fiddles with Kara’s shirt collar. “What happened to being serious?”

“I am serious! Do you or do you not remember that time we went to the water park? I swear she cut a hole in my water tube slide. And let’s not even bring up the whole prom incident, because I swear my hip has never been the same since falling out of your window.”

“She didn’t even know that was you.” Lena laughs, and it’s still somewhat hesitant, but just affectionate enough to reflect her feelings about that memory. “That feels like a lifetime ago.”

Kara inhales, shakily, both the sweet scent of Lena’s perfume and some much-needed air. “In a good way or a bad way?”

Lena presses her forehead into Kara’s jaw, her skin still cold enough that it makes Kara sympathetically squeeze her tighter. “Can you just promise to tell me if you don’t feel comfortable?” she asks, and ignores Kara’s question entirely. “Either with my mother, or…just the pretending part with me.”

“I feel plenty comfortable,” Kara tries, but Lena just reiterates,

“Promise me, Kara. I don't want to lose you.”

Something about the urgency in Lena's tone shifts the mood entirely; Kara swallows tightly and nods obligingly. “Okay. I promise. But you have to tell me, too, if anything becomes…I don't know, too much.”

“Fine,” Lena agrees readily.

“No, wait, but listen,” Kara presses. “Being friends is one thing, but dating is another, and—even if it's fake, we're going to have to do couple things. And I don't want it to ruin our friendship.”

“I also don't want to ruin our friendship,” Lena says. “Which is why I brought it up first.”

“Good. Okay. I just wanted to be sure.” Kara awkwardly shifts, all too aware that this might not be the ideal time and place for this conversation. Much less when Lena's still in her lap, clinging to Kara as if afraid to let go. “So on a scale of one to ten, how badly have I messed up the friendship by fighting Mike?”

Lema hums, considering. “That depends on what he said about me.”

“Um, nothing nice,” Kara says haltingly. “I'd rather not repeat it.”

“Then I'll let it slide…this once.” Lena's hands find their way up to Kara's face, fingertips gentle against the bruise on her jaw. “But you are still an idiot.” She thumbs warmly against the apple of Kara's cheek and gazes at Kara from underneath thick mascaraed eyelashes, then whispers, “And you're my favorite.”

“Your favorite idiot?”

“My favorite person.” Suddenly they're seventeen again, and Kara is sitting on Lena's bedroom floor still tugging at her tux because it itches. Suddenly they're seventeen again, and Lena is biting her lip and unable to catch Kara’s eye. Suddenly they’re seventeen again, and Lena is whispering I wanted you to make sure he didn’t kiss me because I want you to be my first kiss.

Kara blinks, mouth opening and closing for a pause, before she has to fall back on a safe feeling—fall right back to humor, so Lena does not comment on the way Kara’s body automatically tenses. “Aw, Lena,” she manages, “that sounded a lot like you like me.”

“I’m just a good actress,” Lena says mock-haughtily, but her eyes are searching as they lock onto Kara’s, expression softening the way no one else ever really sees. To the world she’s always been some cold, aloof superstar, but to Kara she will always be the best friend who wanted her first kiss to be with the person she trusted most in the world.

“Well for the record,” Kara swallows thickly, “you’re my favorite, too.”

There is a split second—a charged, electric second—where Kara swears Lena is going to kiss her. Her eyes are hooded like they’re about to close, and her face sways closer, her hand still resting on Kara’s bruised jaw. But then she sighs, and Kara can feel the distance before she sees it.

“We should go back inside,” Lena says, abruptly stumbling off of Kara's lap. “Sooner or later we'll have to do damage control.”

It takes a beat for Kara to catch up. “Right,” she says, hastening to button up her shirt and follow. “It wouldn't be a Luthor party without damage control.”

“It's the first time you're the cause, though,” Lena throws over her shoulder. “And don't forget your tie!”

“Got it,” Kara calls, undoing her tie entirely and tossing it into the bushes. “Hey, wait up! Come back and hold my hand.”

That makes Lena freeze in place. “What?”

“For—you know, the cameras,” Kara says, shrugging her suit jacket back on. “So we can show a united front.”

Lena gives her an inscrutable look. “You say the weirdest things sometimes,” she says, but she allows Kara to catch up and intertwine their hands together without further complaint. 

“How else is everyone supposed to know you're not mad at me?” Kara reminds her. “Or that I'm the best girlfriend you've ever had?”

“I doubt they're going to make that assumption based on hand holding.” But as they climb up the steps to rejoin the gala, the low, golden light illuminates that dimpled smile of Lena's that makes Kara breathless. “What makes you think you're the best, anyway?”

“Just a guess,” Kara says, squeezing Lena's hand as they reach the entrance. “Am I?”

“Let's see if you end tonight without any more fights first,” Lena quips, and while her voice is teasing, her smile grows exponentially tender. “Ready?”

“Ready,” Kara echoes quietly, and allows Lena to lead her right through those double doors knowing that she would follow Lena anywhere.

Wanna talk about Screamer while they were carrying Rapidfire? :3c

I think I've talked a bit before about this au, but basically: Starscream very badly hid a pregnancy, got away with it somehow all the way until he nearly died in childbirth, and it was only shortly afterwards that Knockout found the two

I wonder how much of Starscream's suspicious behavior was passed off as "just Starscream things" or " He's hiding something, But We Don't Know Yet, whatever could it be🤔🤔🤔"

(due to some specific biology going on in the au, Starscream didn't physically show much or at all, iicr? That or Starscream managed to up and fucking disappear on the ship for long enough to bridge the gap. But, then again, looking at Starscream's chest to hip ratio yet again, it was gonna be a struggle regardless) (kiwi bird ass motherfucker)

It would be funny though if a couple of the vehicons were right on the money with what was going on, but nobody listened to them.

I am torn on whether Soundwave, who seemingly Sees Everything Ever, didn't know somehow or he did and just neglected to let everyone else in the loop.
