#and knowing jordan he's just oblivious to it lmao

[smckehour]

"i'll just take it as another failed side quest, but you still gotta tell me what you said to her." he isn't going to let it go either, not until rose gives him some detail. "or if you ever spoke to her at all. your wingwoman title is about to be revoked."

✱ ( sc. ) one-liner starter for @smckehour.

" that is so horrible. i can't believe they could that to you. "

A/N: Special thank you to @butternutt613 and @mrsgoofygracie for your help with inspiration, proof reading and for supporting me! I really appreciate it a lot and it helped me finish it! 🤗 ❤️✨and it helped me get confidence to post

I love music to my fics atm and I literally agonised over so many great choices, but ultimately landed on these two - in order of how the fic turns out, should you wish to add to the experience by listening! 🥰 I hope you enjoy, and ofc, Happy Belated Valentines Day!

Hogsmeade had transformed into a winter wonderland, draped in a thick blanket of snow. Snow drifted lazily from the sky, settling in Sebastian’s dark curls and clinging to the collar of his coat. The village glowed warmly in the soft twilight, golden light spilling from shop windows, enchanted lanterns floating overhead, and heart-shaped charms gently pulsing with a rosy hue.

Hogsmeade was alive with the gentle hum of chatter, couples strolling hand-in-hand in the snow and shop windows decorated with enchanted hearts that pulsed with their soft, rosy glow.

The whole village had fallen into a picturesque winter’s day—a perfect setting for Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day.

A day Sebastian would rather not acknowledge.

No, Sebastian was far too occupied to notice any of it.

Not because he didn’t enjoy it. Not because he was bitter about the sight of couples walking hand-in-hand, their soft laughter floating through the air.

No. He didn’t care about any of that.

What made it unbearable—what made his stomach twist every damn time this holiday rolled around—was the fact that he wasn’t celebrating it with Aria.

Aria was standing in front of him, her cheeks flushed pink from the cold, her eyes shimmering with awe. So, they were just… walking together. Like always.

Like they weren’t each other’s first thought every morning and last thought every night. Like they weren’t utterly, hopelessly in love with each other, just too stubborn to admit it.

At least, he was.

Aria, on the other hand, was entirely unbothered, beaming up at the snow falling around them, utterly oblivious to the way his heart clenched just looking at her.

“Look at this place,” she sighed, tilting her head back to admire the lights. “Hogsmeade really outdid itself this year.”

Sebastian shoved his hands into his coat pockets, glancing at a particularly obnoxious floating heart nearby.

“Mm. Nothing says ‘Happy Valentine’s Day’ like enchanted decorations reminding you that you’re single.”

Aria snorted. “Oh, shut up. It’s sweet. Besides, if you weren’t so picky, you wouldn’t be single.”

Sebastian stiffened. “Excuse me?”

She grinned, nudging his side playfully with a bitten smile.

“You heard me. You could’ve gone with Anne when she tried setting you up last month.”

Sebastian scowled. “That was an absolute disaster.”

“She said the girl was lovely.”

“She called me Sebby.”

Aria howled with laughter, grabbing his arm for support. “Oh, no. Not Sebby!”

Sebastian groaned. “She said it three times, Aria. I barely escaped with my life.”

“Well, at least you’ve got me,” she teased, flashing him a grin.

Sebastian’s heart lurched.

You have no idea how much I wish that were true.

Instead of answering, he shook his head, desperately trying to ignore the warmth of her arm still looped through his.

“I heard some friends call you ‘Sebby Chicken’ last week, I must say I’m rather taken with the colourful moniker ~”

He rolled his eyes with a groan as she barely bit back her utterly enchanting and infectious laughter.

“I hate all of you.”

“Oh, look!” Aria suddenly gasped, cutting off her cheeky bitten smile at her teasing of him, her eyes lighting up as she pointed to the quaint stalls. Her other arm tightening around his with her excitement.

“They’ve got a cart selling chocolate-covered strawberries! Seb, we have to.”

Sebastian smirked. “You’re aware those are traditionally for couples, yes?”

Aria shrugged with a playful scoff.

“So? It’s chocolate.”

Sebastian chuckled.

“Well, when you put it like that.”

Within minutes, Aria was holding a skewer of fresh, warm strawberries, the chocolate melting slightly off of them even in the winter air.

Aria took a bite, humming happily with an appreciative groan. “Oh, these are absolutely sinful.”

Sebastian watched as she licked a stray drop of chocolate from her plush glossed lip, his stomach twisting violently. As if the moment were wading in water, the way her lips closed around the sweet treat…

This was torture.

“Seb?”

He blinked, suddenly realizing he’d been staring a little too hard. “Huh?”

Aria held up her skewer with a mischievous smile, was he imagining that? “Want one?”

Sebastian hesitated for half a second too long, glancing between her sparkling eyes and the sweet treat on the skewer in her hands, before drawing in and taking a bite. Sinking his teeth into the sweet flesh of the strawberry, the warm chocolate eliciting a soft hum of appreciation himself.

Aria didn’t move her hand away in time, meaning his lips just barely grazed her fingertips. Her breath hitched, though he wasn’t sure if he’d misheard that.

The moment stretched, silent, charged, tense.

Aria swallowed, blinking at him. “That was—”

“Delicious,” Sebastian cut in quickly, forcing himself to step back with a tense laugh before he did something stupid. Like kiss her senseless.

Aria cleared her throat, shifting awkwardly with a flushed smile. “Right. Yeah. Delicious...”

Sebastian wanted to scream.

After a very tense few minutes, Aria seemed to decide that the best way to break the tension was through violence, of course.

Which was why Sebastian found himself abruptly pelted in the back of the head with a snowball.

He stopped mid-stride. Slowly turned.

Aria stood a few feet away, smirking that tongue toothed smile that winded him, a second snowball already in hand. Looking like a bird ready to take flight at any given moment.

Sebastian exhaled through his nose, unable to hide his widening grin as his heart raced. “You little menace.”

Aria grinned wider, Sebastian bent down to grab a handful of snow—

“NOPE—”

Aria bolted. Darting behind a stall. Sebastian chased her immediately, laughing as she shrieked and darted and weaved between streetlamps and benches, narrowly avoiding his attacks with utterly bubbling laughter.

“Sebastian, I swear if you throw that at me—”

The snowball hit her square in the chest with a thud.

There was a heartbeat of silence as Aria slowly looked down at the splattered mess of snow on her coat, then up at him, her eyes disbelieving.

Sebastian grinned. “Happy Valentine’s Day~”

Aria blinked before smirking. “You little shit -“

Before he could move, a well-aimed snowball smacked against his shoulder, knocking his smugness down a peg.

“Oh, you wound me,” he said, dramatically clutching his chest. “How will I ever recover?”

“You won’t~” Aria teased before launching another snowball.

Sebastian barely had time to dodge, laughing as he ducked behind a bench. Aria was relentless—which he loved about her—but he wasn’t going to lose a snowball fight without giving as good as he gets.

The war waged on, sending handfuls of snow flying as the two of them chased each other through the snowy village, giggling like children. More than one onlooker shook their heads fondly at their antics.

Finally, after several failed attempts, he lunged, catching her by the wrist and spinning her into him.

She collided right into his broad chest with a small “Oof!”

Aria had inadvertently managed to tackle him unawares onto the ground. Tumbling into a particularly soft snowbank, sending them both toppling over in a mess of limbs and laughter.

Sebastian groaned as he found himself lying on his back, Aria practically sprawled on top of him.

He blinked up at her, his hands instinctively settling on her waist. She was so close—lips parted, breath warm against his cold skin, snowflakes caught in her eyelashes. His heart, already pounding from their chase, stuttered for an entirely different reason.

“You’ve… you’ve got snow in your hair,” Aria murmured, reaching up to brush some of the melting flakes away without thought.

Sebastian swallowed. She was breathtaking.

The laughter between them had died instantly as the world narrowed down to just this—her body pressed against his, her hands clutching his snow sodden coat, his strong arms locked firmly around her waist. Both softly panting from running, staring into each other’s eyes with tender smiles and rosy cheeks.

Seb peered up at her, relishing in the feeling of her in his arms this way. How natural it had felt to be pressed against her, holding her steady on top of him.

The way the frost nipped at her soft cheeks, he couldn’t help pretend she was flushed from being together this way. Her eyes lidded with a snatched breath as they met his lips, before peering into his brown eyes again. Plush lips softly parted. He’d felt instantly jealous of that fucking chocolate strawberry from earlier…

Sebastian swallowed hard.

Aria wasn’t laughing, as he’d might have expected.

Her eyes searched the depths of his, her lips parted as if there were a million things she wanted to say, but couldn’t.

And Sebastian - bloody fool that he was - could only lie there, his heart hammering painfully, his hands aching to pull her even closer. Fingers flexing slightly at her waist, itching to be closer.

Much like her, without thought, he’d caught a stray golden strand from hovering over her eyes. Gently tucking it behind her ear with the reverence of a lover. Aria’s lips parted softly, barely able to breathe.

His chest tightened as he could have sworn Aria leant into him. That she drew nearer with bated breath, her eyes loving. His heart was exploding in his chest as he moved to draw in towards her soft lips.

But then—

“Oi! No snogging in the street!”

Gareth’s voice rang out from somewhere nearby, alongside their friends in the winding streets of Hogsmeade. Breaking the spell instantly.

“This is a family place, eh? Keep it in your pants, Sallow~”

Aria jumped off of him with such force she almost stumbled back right onto her arse in the snow. Her cheeks flaming with a wave of embarrassment.

“We weren’t—! I mean—”

Sebastian cleared his throat with a dark growl. “Bloody Weasley.” As she slowly rose to his feet and dusted off the snow with a dark glare shot his way for interrupting them.

Aria laughed, but it was nervous, breathless. Smoothing down her coat with an emphatic clear of her throat as her eyes darted everywhere BUT Sebastian.

“I, uh… should probably head back soon.”

Sebastian forced a smirk.

“Afraid of losing another fight?”

Aria snorted. “You didn’t win, Sallow.”

He quirked a brow. “I had you in my arms. That’s a victory.”

Aria’s eyes softened, just a fraction, before she looked away. Her voice smaller than before.

“Come on, then,” she murmured, nudging his side. “Let’s go home.”

Sebastian followed without protest.

Because one day—one day soon—he was going to gather every ounce of Gryffindor courage in him, pull her into his arms, and tell her the truth.

That she was his home.

And that he’d been in love with her for years.

Hogsmeade grew smaller as the two wandered the snowy grounds back to Hogwarts. Despite Gareth’s untimely interruption, Sebastian and Aria had not spoken about what had almost happened.

They’d walked in near silence, the weight of something unspoken, something monumental crackling in the air between them.

Sebastian itched to touch her, hold her hand, link their arms, anything.

Sebastian’s heart hadn’t stopped racing since he had her in his arms. Oh Merlin.. And he knew—he knew—he couldn’t let this night end without saying something.

The walk home felt torturously long. Sebastian was unsure whether he’d have strength enough to find the words.

Should he have gotten her a gift? Unapologetically proclaiming his unwavering love for her that grew stronger each passing day?

When they reached the castle gates, Aria hesitated. Pulling him irrevocably from his thoughts.

“Hey…” she murmured, not looking at him, but at the snow by their feet.

Sebastian tensed, though his tone was gentle. Hopeful. “Yeah?”

She fidgeted with her gloves, her breath visible in the cold air. Finally meeting his eyes.

“Come with me to the Astronomy Tower?”

Sebastian blinked, his heart skipping a beat.

“You’re not dragging me up there to push me off, are you?”

Aria huffed a soft laugh through her nose, playfully rolling her eyes. Before teasing with a wicked smirk,

“I’d have done that ages ago if I wanted to, Sallow~”

Sebastian smirked, clutching his chest in feigned indignation,

“Wicked woman~”

They laughed, and he of course followed without protest.

The tower was quiet when they arrived, the usual student stargazers absent due to the cold. The wind bit at their skin, but the sky above was stunning—crisp, endless, and dusted with glistening stars.

Aria shivered. She smiled up at the wondrous sky despite it.

Without thinking, Sebastian shrugged off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.

Aria startled slightly, blinking up at him.

Sebastian shrugged with a tender smile. “You’re freezing.”

Aria swallowed. Something changed in her expression. Her eyes were glistening again as they had twice before that day. When they shared the strawberries, and after their snowball fight right before -

She pulled the cloak tighter around herself, eyes flickering away with a soft breath of a laugh.

“You’re always looking after me, you know.”

Something warm in her eyes as she seemed far away in thought, glancing up at the vastness of the starlit sky. Whilst she kept her eyes skyward, his were trained on her. The curves and contours of her striking features. As though memorising her in this moment.

Sebastian exhaled a laugh, his fingers flexing at his sides with a playful roll of his eyes.

“Well, someone’s got to look after you. You’re reckless, practically a walking hazard.”

She nudged his ribs with a barely suppressed smirk,

“You’re one to talk~”

After their quiet laughter, she quieted.

And suddenly, the weight of years of something just out of reach seemed to settle between them.

“Sebastian…” she whispered into a soft cloud of warm breath in the frozen air.

His breath caught. The way she said his name..

She turned fully to face him now, clutching the edges of his coat around herself shoulders, as though gathering her courage.

“I—I need to know,” she murmured.

Eyes imploring.

“Tonight… Back there…”

She swallowed,

“Was I imagining it?”

Sebastian’s stomach twisted.

Because—Merlin’s sake.

Was she seriously asking if she’d imagined it?

The way he’d ached for her? The way he’d starved for her, year after year, hiding it behind smirks and playful jabs?

She had no idea at all, did she?

His silence must have made her nervous, because she shifted, chewing her lip.

“…Forget it,” she mumbled, moving to step away.

Sebastian caught her wrist. She stilled.

Sebastian swallowed hard, voice fervent. “You weren’t imagining it.”

Aria’s breath hitched. She turned back to him, hope and hesitation warring in her expression. In her beautiful, starlit eyes.

Sebastian stepped closer, calloused fingertips reaching for her spare hand, encasing them in his own for warmth.

“You never have.”

Aria’s fingers trembled where they clutched his coat, and then within his warm, safe grasp.

“…Then why have you never—?”

“I was a coward,” he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.

“I didn’t want to ruin what we had. Didn’t want to lose you if I got it wrong.”

Aria stared at him, snowflakes softly starting to catch in her long lashes.

Then, very softly, she asked,

“…And now?”

Sebastian’s pulse roared in his ears.

He lifted a hand, grazing his knuckles along her cheek with a touch lighter than a moth’s wing.

“Now,” he breathed, “I don’t want to waste another bloody second.”

Aria’s lips parted—just before Sebastian closed the space between them, and kissed her.

It was soft at first, hesitant—like they were both testing the waters of something they’d spent years pretending wasn’t there. Soft sighs and feeling tasered by the other’s tantalising lips. Something settling in the pit of their stomachs when Aria kissed him back.

A quiet, desperate sound left her as she fisted her hands in his shirt, pulling him closer, deeper—and Sebastian was undone.

He let out a shaky breath, tilting his head to devour her properly. His strong hands shifted to sweep her stray golden curls from her eyes as he met her lips in a tantalising kiss. Unhurried and teasing, before gently swiping his tongue across her lips for permission.

With a soft gasp she parted her lips, fingers threading through his hair as he messaged her tongue with his. His hands slid down her arms, around her back to pull her flush against his chest with a low groan. His arms locking tightly around her waist as though afraid she’d disappear. She let out a sweet sigh against his lips.

Aria melted against him, her hands slipping back into his hair, gripping tight as though she, too, had waited years for this. Arching her back into him as she chased his touch and feelings she’d waited years to act on.

The Astronomy Tower was silent but for their ragged breaths, the sound of lips parting and meeting again, the way his name left her in a breathless whisper between kisses.

Sebastian was dizzy.

They finally, finally broke apart, foreheads touching, breath mingling in the cold air as they parted just to catch their breath.

Aria laughed softly, a bit breathless, a bit dazed. Biting her lip on her smile.

Sebastian grinned with a light tease. “That good, huh?”

She rolled her eyes but beamed at him, cheeks flushed. “Oh shut up~”

Then, quieter, softer she murmured lovingly,

“…Happy Valentine’s Day, Seb.”

Sebastian exhaled a laugh, pressing his lips to her forehead as he cupped her cheeks. As though she were precious and beloved, and he could finally admit to it.

“Happy Valentine’s Day, love.”

bokuakakuroken where bokuken are insecure about each other. they think the other doesn’t want to be dating them. Kenma thinks Bokuto doesn’t want to spend time with him bc Bokuto is avoiding him, but really Bokuto thinks he annoys kenma so is trying to be considerate

MSBY thinks sakuatsu hate each other. They’re constantly fighting. They insult each other. They send volleyballs into each other’s heads. They’ve ended up physically fighting during practice more than once.

Except then they get caught from something silly. Atsumu always gets to practice way earlier than Kiyoomi because Kiyoomi sleeps in until the very last minute. And one day Kiyoomi shows up to practice wearing an Onigiri Miya t-shirt and has Atsumu’s water bottle.

“You left this at home.”

Kiyoomi shoves the water bottle in Atsumu face, and is oblivious to most of the team watching them in shock.

“I knew ya cared, Omi!”

“Next time I’ll let you die of dehydration.”

“But then who will set for ya?”

“Kageyama.”

Atsumu obviously pouts at that, but then gets that big, stupid smile on his face.

“But then who would cuddle ya and set your alarm for an hour later?”

This whole time the conversation is happening the team is gaping at them, and it’s probably Inunaki who asks what the fuck is going on. And it takes a lot of questions before Atsumu is finally like

“We live together? How is this weird?”

And that causes chaos until it’s Bokuto who gives the answer everyone is missing.

“They’ve been dating forever. Why wouldn’t they live together?”

Kiyoomi and Atsumu didn’t even really explicitly tell Bokuto they were together. Bokuto is just very emotionally aware and knew from the start.

Obviously everyone is confused still, arguing that they fight all the time. Except then Hinata is just as dumbfounded as Bokuto, because like all the relationships he knows are like that.

MSBY decides that the monster generation is just weird as fuck.

bokuto is well known as an lgbt public figure and advocate

not because he does work for it or anything. it's purely because he can't stop bringing akaashi up in every interview he's ever done

I'm in love with the teacher au! Can we see more of the students being oblivious that they're dating? Or maybe they have a class rivalry? Maybe they have their classes collaborate (idk for like a test or something) and that's how the students find out?

I just love your aus, if there's a place to send you money I 100% will, you deserve it

-🖍

hello mysterious crayon anon 👁 ur wish my command & thank u , ur v sweet LMAO

• let’s get some student names!

• ART lovers/dames defenders: jordan, a kid damian doesn’t understand how he got this far. the kids honestly so smart, taking honors and ap classes… but he’s also so fucking dumb. marissa, kinda a ass, kinda a sweetheart, depends on the day, one of damians favorite students because she reminds him of maya. will, that kid with the hair in front of his eyes. damians THIS close to cutting it off. it’s so fucking annoying. Damian just glares at him so hard. but the kids really talented. linda, talks way too much, is very vocal about her opinions, but is very sweet.

• ENGLISH lovers/jons squad: selena, that kid who reads way too much manga in his class, but jon finds her a sweet kid. maybe it’s because she reminds him of damian. max, kid in the back of the class who had to be pushed metaphorically into the right direction and is now breezing through with an A. aria and andi, twins, they are brother and sister. they.. are complete opposites

• look jon class lovers and Damian class lovers hate each other, so damian and jon had to put an end to it. they didn’t really know why the kids were so mad, so he had them work on a group project together. so the kids have to pair up with someone from the other class to complete a project.

• this was also an excuse for dames and j to hangout a bit during school <3

Jon, whispering: I want a kiss

Damian: we are in public, control yourself

• marissa heard that. she thinks she misheard that so she keeps it to herself.

Damian and j kissing near the exit of the school when everyone was almost out:

max, numbing: whatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuck

• he keeps that to himself

aria: isn’t that mr kents jacket..? I swear I saw him wear it before.. and it looks sorta big..

Damian: no, get your eyes checked.

• dames grabbed the wrong jacket

linda after seeing jon trying to kiss damians cheek: you guys aren’t being sneaky anymore!! try harder!!

Damian: oh my god why are you here!

Linda: I left my bag?????

Dami: SHOO

• Linda has a big mouth and.. every1 finds out

22 7 and 3 for tanner and jordan!!

chichi i'm sorry! i forgot that i never ended up answering these!

revealing oc asks under the cut bc it's probably going to get long-ish answering for both of them

22. Do they like being called pet names? Do they call other people pet names? What’s their go-to?

tanner not real big on being called anything other than his name. doesn't even really like people just calling him 'drake' but he's learnt to live with that one. he tolerates morgan's 'sweetheart' in the beginning but eventually he grows to kind of like it, even though him calling her 'sunshine' actually started as a retaliation meant to piss her off lol. he'd maybe be ok with kind of mild stuff like 'baby' or 'honey' once he was comfortable with someone but nothing any sappier than that. he doesn't use nicknames most of the time either, mainly bc he doesn't ever get close enough to anyone to justify using one. but like he calls farah 'gorgeous' after a while, and he uses 'love' a lot with morgan once he decides to stop pretending he doesn't like her.

jordan she doesn't use them often, but the more relaxed she becomes in her relationship with adam the more often a 'baby' or 'sweetie' will slip out. also, she calls him an asshole all the time but i'm not sure that counts as a pet name lol. adam's not really a nickname person but really she'd be fine with whatever he wanted to call her if he decided to use one. mostly he just calls her stubborn or ridiculous or tiresome though lmao.

7. Describe them in three words. Now let them describe themself in three words.

tanner lol. idk if i can describe tanner in just 3 words but i'll make do. aggressive, cocky and damaged.

Tanner thinks about the question a lot harder, for a lot longer than one would expect, staring pensively at nothing in particular in front of him before finally clicking his tongue and snapping his fingers as he seems to come up with something.

"Good. In. Bed." He grins, either oblivious to or (more likely) deliberately ignoring the obvious way in which he's chosen to dodge the personal question.

jordan answered here!

3. Ask them to describe their love interest.

tanner "Who? Morgan? Love interest?" he just about spits the words out, pulling a face as he does, "that's a bit of a stretch don't you think?"

He pauses, glancing around almost nervously to make sure no one's around to hear him before leaning closer and lowering his voice as though about to reveal a secret.

"She's..." another pause and he seems to zone out a little as he mulls over his answer, "she's a badass. And she's hot. And she's kind of a bitch. No- no, she's a lot of a bitch."

He leans back in his seat again, the thoughtful expression remaining on his face. "She's not as tough as she thinks she is, though. And sometimes she can be..." He trails off and shakes his head, breaking out of his daze and focusing again.

"I dunno, but sometimes she's not so bad. Most of the time she is, but sometimes... sometimes she seems small and I want to take her away with me somewhere and protect her from everything."

"She'd never let me, though. Because she's a badass."

jordan "He's an asshole." She grins and chuckles to herself, as though picturing the look on Adam's face every time she tells him as much.

"He's also really sweet, though. Like, you wouldn't believe how sweet he can be. So sweet sometimes it even makes me cringe. He's so sweet sometimes that it makes him an asshole. He gets so worried and so hell bent on making sure I'm safe that it's fucking annoying."

"And he's dependable and honest. I know I can always count on him to be there for me, and to be honest with me."

Her grin fades to a soft smile and she nods. "Yeah, he's really sweet. And I always feel safe with him. Plus, he's easy on the eyes, you know? What more could I ask for, really?"

[whitmore]

Maybe you could shed some light for me: Is Cameron canonically a villain in the comics? bc I'm over-analyzing the dinner scene where Jordan touches the hot plate. If Cameron, who seems like a sweet kid & is on good terms with his dad, isn't merely clueless / oblivious but KNOWS his dad is Icicle, then that would mean he approves of what his dad is doing & that would just be seriously messed up.

he is !! cameron’s arguably a more known villain than jordan/joar/whatever we’re calling his dad in that timeline. icicle jr is a REALLY prominent villain in a lot of dc media like young justice & comics in general, where he’s a member of the injustice society ! he’s also blue in those medias tho so :// smurf energy

i think out of all the “unswayed��� kids of the isa (henry jr, cameron, artemis), cameron’s the one who is most likely to be written w a villain plot. henry jr has his comics arc as a hero, artemis has her yj “origins” as a hero, both of which have affected how their characters are portrayed in stargirl. cameron’s always been a villain. i think they’re setting up a shock reveal for when we (the audence) and the starsquad find out cameron approves of his dad’s actions/sides w the isa (probably for his mom). he’s definitely written different in the show than in his comic origins, but i REALLY suspect he’ll end up being somewhat villainous in nature.

it’s also important to note that cameron & jordan are on good terms but they’re not really close? neil jackson (jordan mahkent) did an interview & talked abt how jordan really wasn’t there for cameron growing up and they’re two strangers trying to coexist as father & son (paraphrasing but that was the gist) so there definitely IS a slim possibility of using that dissonance to give cameron an inner moral turmoil over becoming a villain, but it definitely is slim.

also in the same interview neil jackson kind of implied that we wouldn’t find out if cameron will/won’t become icicle jr this season? so there’s that lmao

but yeah i think the interview was on cbr if u want to look for it !

aren't even from their course gonna get involved] Jac: [at least you can swerve them more freely in a sassy manner] Savannah: [and we can sacrifice maddie to one that's she's vaguely into so thanks] Jac: [go get yours gal] Savannah: [leave them to their shameless gay vibe] Jac: [try to get out your head gal you can do it] Savannah: [we all know she's accidentally making this so ridiculous difficult for you rn] Jac: [we're not any more sorted than we were lbr ladies] Savannah: [tea] Jac: [so productive] Savannah: [making you come to the toilets with her so she can fix her makeup/admire herself because of course] Jac: [just admiring her too tbh] Savannah: [likewise because now is the time for a shameless hair touch like lemme fix that for you and all the ensuing compliments because Savannah is me] Jac: [😳😳😳😳] Savannah: [when she's inherited her father's complexion so obvs the bae sees but she thinks it's adorable 'you feel things so deeply, I love that about you'] Jac: ['one of us should appreciate it, like' 🙄 at self] Savannah: ['of course I appreciate you, you've always been everything to me' be gayer please gal] Jac: ['almost everything' 'cos you drunk enough that that can slip but then you nudge her like 😏 lol lol total bants] Savannah: [when that hurts your heart so much it'd be obvious on your face for a split second at least before you cover it with your own 🙄 at self like I can't believe I like boys ugh] Jac: [reflectively putting your hand on her shoulder like no it's okay, I'm sorry and covering that by finally being like 'at least you don't like Jordan] Savannah: [taking that hand and positioning her arm so you can look at her tattoo that matches yours like you're relieved she still has it, also without thinking about it but then being like oh shit so you just have to say 'I like being single' even though she did not ask and it's not true] Jac: [when we know you better than that, babe so the really? is on our face v hard but we not being judgy with it and we show that by touching her tattoo lightly] Savannah: [the 'rude' is on her face but playfully we're not actually offended but we shrug because she does mean that she doesn't wanna date another Milo for so many reasons, cos that was a time in both their lives we know] Jac: ['he's probably having such a shit time' in a comforting forget him way, 'cos of course you know what she think of, at least who] Savannah: [she's so not above being buzzing at the prospect/hoping he is so such a happy face again] Jac: [lols] Savannah: [putting your lipgloss or whatever it is on her cos it's nothing too dramatic where she'd be like no and we can pretend that's why you're shamelessly staring at her cos that idea struck you to do a makeover moment and not cos you're gay] Jac: [not at all thinking about the other way you coulda put that on her, nah, doing a kissy face like tah] Savannah: [tucking her hair behind her ear/playing with it like you're so concerned it could get stuck to this gloss okay] Jac: [having to yeah HAVING to take her hand to get her out 'cos bathrooms in clerbs are always packed like come on] Savannah: [she's clearly about it] Jac: [go dance some more] Savannah: [that's what we are here for, a chance to be gay af without either of us freaking out] Jac: [mhmm, live and let live ladies] Savannah: [it's like expected of straight girls at this point so] Jac: [we all hoe dance at the clerb] Savannah: [god bless, come through with that drink jordan, where you been?] Jac: [who are you where are you so many questions also making him go get you one too shamelessly like thaaaanks] Savannah: [when you a bad bitch like your mother] Jac: [don't be making enemies though gal] Savannah: [someone should make an actual move on either of them tonight but I can't decide which way round I want it] Jac: [hmm, there's a case for either way isn't there] Savannah: [because it could be a girl in Jac's case cos don't need an A+ gaydar to be knowing which would be awkward and freak her out but obviously it could be a boy too which would #confirm Sav thinking she's not gay but obviously it'd hurt her heart if some boy or girl is all over Sav and she thinks she's into it so] Jac: [i say let it be a girl and jac for the freakout we can probably use that the most] Savannah: [it has the henchest legs in terms of a idea I agree] Jac: [hoot] Savannah: [how do you want it to happen like are they still dancing or what's the craic] Jac: [I think they go back to their tables to be social a bit and this girl pops off] Savannah: [love that, what type of lesbian are you gal, what would be the most awkward? butch maybe] Jac: [yes like undeniably so lol] Savannah: [I have such a mental image rn] Jac: [a fuckboy who is probably gonna give feminist rants in your lectures, marlene hello lol] Savannah: [her more butch cousin because k-stew is still too soft] Jac: [ruby rose] Savannah: [mhmm] Jac: [just shooketh like how did you know #exposed over here] Savannah: [meanwhile your bae is oblivious talking to whoever else] Jac: [when a girl has never and you can't outright run or anything 'cos these your classmates] Savannah: [like you could run gal but you gotta be subtle about it you can't just be like I need a piss RN cos then she might think you wanna hook up in the bathroom lol] Jac: [oh no no, keeping this convo dry sweaty] Savannah: [at least you can always say you're not out if she won't take the hint because it's against gay law to out someone so] Jac: [bye ruby rose] Savannah: [you can run now if you want gal] Jac: [if she's the kind that can be chill enough to be friendly and not totally in your face, you should stay, 'cos trying here for that new rep] Savannah: [#growth] Jac: [don't wanna be alone again at any cost] Savannah: [so sad and so true] Savannah: I'm doing my best to be a social 🦋 but I miss you Jac.: Come and save me then Savannah: [does but does the thing where they end up sharing a chair like oh hey, you're lowkey on her lap gal neither of you are smol enough for this] Jac.: [when you can fully get into the bit 'cos you are just tryna let this girl know you're not interested, sure babe, like Sav is touchy-feely anyway but she'd be less so naturally but playing with her hair rn] Savannah: [😳 but her skin tone is not giving her away so we're fine] Jac.: [needlessly whispering/loud whispering 'cos clerb in her ear instead of tryna shout to the whole group 'cos we sending a message here ok] Savannah: [we know she doesn't need any encouragement to join in with that because that's shamelessly a vibe for them anyway like soz Isabelle] Jac.: [we've not changed that hard and have no intention to really lmao and can't fault you] Savannah: [more dancing like you've just gotta cos THIS SONG but we know why really] Jac.: [we know the vibe] Savannah: [just dancing til you're actually knackered and do need to sit back down for a bit] Jac.: [is there anything else we wanna/do we wanna let anything go down/however small it might seem] Savannah: [the temptation to make it even gayer is so real but it's like the L bomb dilemma of like is now the right time/do we wanna prolong the agony longer but I feel like something needs to happen] Jac.: [this is day TWO, freshers is intense by default everyone thinks they're gonna be friends forever, and the way most people do it you're like drunk the whole week, so I feel like something could reasonably happen/should, even if we then take however many paces back] Savannah: [you gotta do it Savannah it's your turn to put yourself out there gal] Jac.: [we can all pretend we don't remember lol #doitdoit Savannah: [I just can't decide if I want it to happen at the club or when they're alone having their sleepover moment cos pros and cons to both] Jac.: [like the tension is high in both scenarios but maybe have enough wherewithal to not let your classmates 👀 'cos they so close as is people will be like OH YOU A COUPLE, although, we COULD do that if we wanted, hmm] Savannah: [Savannah just like yes she's the love of my life, Jac like I AM SO CONFUSED] Savannah: [but in all seriousness I am leaning towards the sleepover because if they're alone and then Savannah is like well that didn't happen, Jac's just like did it happen though, like am I actually losing my mind/dreaming really vividly here like] Jac.: [I vibe, you can go harder but deny as hard] Savannah: [exactly because you know they're gonna go really hard this has been such a long time coming] Jac.: [mhmm] Savannah: [plus I love the cinematic visual of them having no makeup or sassy outfits on when this happens like you're really making yourselves vulnerable here aren't you gals] Jac.: [and in a single bed, of course, Jac having literally not slept in hers, like] Savannah: [she hasn't yet, that actually kills me] Jac.: [y'all could've shared if you been knew at this rate lmao] Savannah: [I also like the idea that they don't stop because they get interrupted or any of the things we normally throw at people but because Savannah actually says that she wants to/isn't ready to go any further than this because they do have good communication and also it shows that like she did wanna do what actually happened even if she does deny it later] Jac.: [That was literally the vibe I had too so same page] Savannah: [yet more vulnerability cos you have to be like can we stop but you're not scared to] Jac.: [and at least that's some clarity so Jac is going to be the opposite of mad about it, obvs] Savannah: [y'all had and lbr still have so much trust that it just makes sense] Jac.: [the last thing you want/wanted was to ruin the friendship that's the whole mood we're not being reckless out here] Savannah: [snuggle and be soft in that small bed ladies] Jac.: [live your best lives, we'll worry about it tomorrow] Savannah: [unrelated but cos I just looked up their heights I 100% vote that Sav was as tall/taller than her last boyfriend and he was annoyed about it because he is not Jimothy] Jac.: [you gotta be confident to own that so yes 100% no heels for you gal] Savannah: [Ty can be taller cos basketball boy so you could've worn them then #thegoldenage] Savannah: [okay so I'll write what we said here for future ref 1. Jac wakes up and her bae is gone so she's freaking out thinking that Sav is for obvious reasons but 2. Sav has only gone to get coffee or tea or whatever because that bitch and that gay so she comes back with breakfast and Jac's gone so she's like ??] Savannah: Where did you go? Jac.: I thought you wanted me to be gone Savannah: Oh boo no! It was supposed to be a nice surprise Jac.: Oh Jac.: well Jac.: that's embarrassing then Savannah: I can just bring the 🥐 to you Savannah: the ☕️ will probably get cold so I will be drinking it on the way, sorry Jac.: I'm sorry, that was weird Jac.: got out of the practice of this whole friend thing, clearly Jac.: that sounds good, you can see the inside of my dorm, I definitely owe you by this point Savannah: You don't even need to be sorry, I literally should have woken you to say I'd be right back but you looked SO adorable Savannah: though I'm not sure how I didn't already by like making my secret escape Jac.: but it was a good surprise Jac.: feel like a total 🥳💩 now Jac.: I'll use my time to ponder how to make it up to you Savannah: I can think of another one, it's fine Savannah: to be honest the ☕️ isn't that good anyway Savannah: [spoiler alert it is good and she's lying to make her feel less bad lol] Jac.: I do need caffeine though...what state do you think the kitchen will be in 🤔 Savannah: I love you but I don't think I can go in there for you Jac.: 😂 Jac.: I won't penalize you for being productive and getting out of bed to forage Jac.: that would be beyond rude Jac.: I'm gonna buy a kettle for my room, definitely Savannah: Literally any excuse to go shopping again is endorsed Jac.: I'm down Jac.: these rooms are so old-fashioned by default, there's no such thing as over decorating, it's a decent challenge Savannah: ^^^ Savannah: I'm so upset we aren't roommates Jac.: Nat is in David Russell and it's so clean and modern looking in comparison inside Jac.: AND they've got doubles Jac.: but that's the price we pay for the more traditional experience again Jac.: I know, if only we HAD known Jac.: next year, we can share Savannah: I get the appeal but I personally do NOT want to be reminded of home Jac.: I feel you, plus that's like where EVERYONE lives, social 🦋 or otherwise, I want my peace and quiet sometimes Savannah: A bigger bed would be AMAZING though, I can't sleep in the curled up in the foetal position every night of my life Jac.: I won't be there taking up space every night, it'll probably feel doable then Savannah: Baby, I hate to do it like this but you're only average height Jac.: 😂 Jac.: oh, I'm sorry, it's those extra FOUR inches that make all the difference Jac.: what about Dom, he's gotta be like 6'5, spare a thought for him fully hanging off the end, like Savannah: Obviously they do Savannah: but yes, at least I'm not planning to have a sleepover with Dom any time soon, I'm sure he's BEYOND relieved Jac.: No one could be relieved about that Jac.: you're such a thoughtful host Savannah: if we weren't literally in Scotland I'd almost believe the 🌞 came out then Savannah: but it's just you warming my heart Savannah: being the sweetest ever 💛 Jac.: Even if we DON'T wanna be reminded of home, the culture shock of constant 🌞 would be too much Jac.: you deserve 🍧🍨🍦🍰🎂🍭🍬🍫🍩🍪🍯 Savannah: Well, I'd acclimatise for you, obviously Savannah: & develop a sweet tooth Jac.: You're perfect how you are Savannah: I'd look even more perfect with a tan though Jac.: I'd look even more like my mother Jac.: which is arguably the same thing but Savannah: & not a bad thing Savannah: Your mum is so pretty Jac.: I know Savannah: your whole family is a different level, honestly Jac.: 🎁 and a curse, I guess Savannah: like the Cullens if any of them were actually cast hot in the film Jac.: ��� Jac.: how hard can it be to find perfect clone-looking actors, really Savannah: 😄 Savannah: thanks for not being a vampire, even if we are in the perfect ☁️ 🌧 climate Jac.: as far as you know Jac.: might only wear my fangs on weekends Savannah: excuse me, I know all your secrets Jac.: Perhaps Jac.: 😏 Savannah: 🥺 Jac.: Awh, baby Jac.: 'course you do Savannah: I can't believe you're making me walk right now 🥱 Savannah: can we PLEASE go back to bed Jac.: we should, if we're hitting sinners tonight Jac.: apparently it's carnage Jac.: sports lads, and girls, are always mental Savannah: I don't think I'm going to that Jac.: Not your scene? Jac.: A night off isn't a terrible idea, even if you have to keep that 🤫 from some of our more... enthusiastic classmates Savannah: Even if I didn't desperately need to apply a hair & face mask, I need the reminders of jock types less, I did my time Jac.: How true Jac.: Somehow Tyler would've been more annoying if he also had a brain that wasn't 🏀 Savannah: Don't be mean, he was really not that annoying for a boy Jac.: That's what I'm saying Jac.: his lack of opinions was welcome Savannah: are you going? Jac.: I was gonna Jac.: but I'm not fully sold either way Savannah: oh, so you want me to convince you to stay with me Savannah: okay Jac.: My hair is obviously looking SO glorious without the mask so Jac.: yeah 😉 Savannah: I told you, I'll think of another surprise Savannah: something to do that's more worthy of us Jac.: I believe in you Jac.: ☕🥐 and the rest Savannah: I won't let you down, baby Jac.: Never have Savannah: Well, once Jac.: I'd let you down first Savannah: it's no excuse though Jac.: That's well in the past Jac.: now we have a future Jac.: you've just got the morning after blues Jac.: you need to come back to bed Savannah: you're right Savannah: [show up gal cos it only takes like 12 minutes] Jac.: [has definitely cleaned up this kitchen so they can sit up the table and have their breakfast, also put a tea on 'cos duh] Savannah: [when you can blame how happy you are to see her on the fact you've had 2 caffeinated beverages] Jac.: [we know you getting a big hug 'cos feels so stupid/so relieved that what you thought had happened hasn't] Savannah: [casually dying any time she's affectionate with you because not a touchy feely bitch like you are and of course that's the only reason okay bye] Jac.: [have your gay breakfast gals] Savannah: [we chatting about the night but so casually avoiding what happened at the end like] Jac.: [lol this is all so fine and dandy] Savannah: [truly] Jac.: [if you're both committing to it, it'll work for now ladies] Savannah: [and you clearly both are for your own reasons] Jac.: [mhmm] Savannah: [case in point just going back to bed like that's fine] Jac.: [lmao and we all know you ain't going out tonight girl] Savannah: [we all know you're going on a date] Jac.: [yes we'll have to find somewhere appropriate] Savannah: [yeah gotta be aesthetic] Savannah: [we can skip to that if you want cos we also know when you wake up you just living that pampering life] Jac.: [makes sense to me] Savannah: [okay so picnic is first is there anything we wanna ref happening during that other than them being happy nerds? like obvs you're gonna have to snuggle for warmth that's a given] Jac.: [clearly someone has taken that pic for them 'cos her face so I like to think some extra hoe was like OMG YOU'RE SO CUTE lemme] Savannah: [100% an american] Jac.: [lmao absolutely] Savannah: [thinking they a couple like you're not ready for that convo random gal] Jac.: [don't need to go into it with you, they should also do some gardening, those nerds] Savannah: [oh shit yes obviously you have to start a garden together] Jac.: [even if they just get rid of the dead stuff that's been left and prep it for spring, we'll look up the situ of what to plant 'cos when they go to the botanical gardens etc they can buy things and get inspo] Savannah: [I love that for you ladies] Jac.: [we know the vibe, it's gonna be cute af, nothing is gonna be said/done 'til you go out and get some alcohol] Savannah: [yeah hence I'm trying to find an aesthetic restaurant for you to get on the wine lol] Savannah: [okay gotta hit up the balgove larder flower shed and farm shop for supplies because aesthetic af and they have an insta we can steal from even if we don't eat there] Savannah: [I think the rav looks v aesthetic and they have cocktails as well as a wine list so] Jac.: [sorted, babey] Savannah: [okay so obvs we are gonna try and do posts but is there anything you wanna ref here as happening/do when they are drunk enough] Jac.: [we could talk when we get back, like just do dialogue and actions] Savannah: [I think that's a good idea, who's dorm are we saying?] Jac.: [probably Jac's] Savannah: [has kinda been your base for the day so that makes sense]

[blookmallow]

looking at the Get Out script and my script site has again somehow obtained a strange, COMPLETELY DIFFERENT early version of the script 

( note: im white, my interpretation of this movie and the changes that were made are coming from a white perspective, this is not my subject to speak on and if im off on anything/reading it wrong by all means let me know!! )

theres this whole conversation (with like. i think its just a random family being shown alongside andre’s kidnapping) about mickey mouse mascots at disneyworld being “Always Happy :)”/”someone else on the inside” foreshadowing the twist later which i guess was probably ultimately deemed unnecessary or might’ve made disney angry lmao but its. something 

i think it was a white family ignoring/completely oblivious to the black man suffering right outside on their lawn too which was a good parallel though

also had this weird thing where the kidnapper’s car had a french tutorial going in it which caused this great juxtoposition but im not sure why this was here 

i dont remember this line, it might’ve been cut but apparently rose works at a hospital (or originally was going to, at least) 

i dont remember enough about the crucible to say what double meanings there are here (i was a lit major... the shame...) but theres also a line about rose being good at acting/There’s A Lot You Don’t Know

i like these little hints but i feel like removing them and making it less obvious was a good call all the same 

originally rose doesn’t pretend she didn’t know about the gathering and just goes “what, i told you :/” i think having her pretend to be just as shocked and “omg you GUYS no WAY” at her parents is a lot more effective at making us (and chris) think she’s on his side 

i dont remember this if it did make it to the final cut but rose mentions her mom also used hypnosis on her, kind of giving an implied sense that she might have been manipulated into this too but it isnt brought up again

one of the biggest changes is andre/”logan” was originally in a gay relationship, and like... on the one hand, there’s a particular horror in being forced into a relationship with someone outside your sexuality but this definitely reads very... predatory homosexuality/”they made him be GAY” as an Especially Scary Thing, whereas having him with an older woman instead flips over the “predatory black man/innocent defenseless white woman” stereotype in a much more effective way (which they also did with chris and rose) 

it would’ve been... more fitting with the themes to have andre be a gay man who is forced into compulsory heterosexuality if they were gonna go that route but i think the way its done in the final cut is done better than. this 

still pretty weird to me how docile and obedient “logan” is given that he’s presumably phil’s white husband in a stolen body though / same deal with the lady hes married to in the final film 

rose puts up a lot more resistance when chris wants to leave, she comes around eventually but she definitely is way less “I’m on your side, babe! :)” than she ended up being in the final cut, which i think is definitely for the better

i suspected from the beginning she probably wasnt trustworthy either but they did a way better job making the twist less blatant/we dont really know for sure if she’s in on it too yet 

she also randomly brings up the fact that she Might Be Pregnant, which is never mentioned again, im guessing probably another tactic to get him to stay since she thinks he’s trying to break up with her when he wants to leave 

if this got into the final cut i didnt catch it but we can probably assume it happened either way, the guy rose’s grandfather took over was one of her victim boyfriends which is REALLY fucked up 

another big change is that jeremy and rose’s positions are switched in the final confrontation, rose is the one who comes for chris for the procedure, and he kills her there, while jeremy is the one who comes after him later with the shotgun and gets shot by walter 

i think it hits much harder and feels much better from a narrative standpoint to have the confrontation with rose be the end, she’s the one he loved, she’s the one whose betrayal hurts the worst, she’s the one responsible for dragging him into this shit and him being forced to choke her to death is so hard to watch and such a huge moment i think it deserved to be the final showdown 

jeremy also is visibly distraught over georgina/his grandmother’s death, while i think its way creepier having rose stoically acknowledge it with no emotion

i know this wasnt supposed to be funny but i m laughinG 

last big thing is that it WAS actually the cops at the end originally, the whole last second bait and switch wave of flooding relief as we realize its ROD isnt there, chris actually gets arrested 

and like.... while the “and none of it even matters, he won, but of course the system is still going to favor the rich white family, no one’s going to believe him, he’s still ending up being blamed for this because in a black man’s story the arrival of the police does not in any way mean rescue” is also a strong point, i think having that “oh fuck oh FUCK” moment at the end where we realize what’s coming but then it turns out he’s SAVED, as a kind of “and that’s why we stick up for each other” message is so fuckign good and we want to see him win SO BAD

so many horror movies seem to think they Have to go with the hopeless “nobody wins” ending but the fact that this was in here and jordan peele made the decision to let his hero get his freedom back and GO HOME after all the shit he’s been through is like. i dont know, refreshing? i love jordan peele’s storytelling and im so glad for this change  

its such a weird ending too because he doesnt even seem like he cares. he’s done fighting. hes just like nah, man, it’s over, don’t worry about it. he’s not interested in justice or exposing whats been happening, he’s not worried it’ll start again (the armitages are all dead at this point but like, there were a lot of people at that party, this could happen again) he’s just. over it. which, yeah, after going through all that, i get it, but it feels. weird, somehow. and the thing with the song is referencing an earlier also-deleted scene where chris is forced to listen to that song over and over as a way of binding him to the white guy who’s trying to bodyswap him bc its his “favorite song” or something

so like. why is he still whistling that. it feels like a “he got out alive, but they still got in his head and he’s giving in and not fighting back anymore all the same” which!! i dont like that!! i dont know

4, 12, 13! The 100 (duh), and for 13, you can choose the character

Thank you so much, my friend! 💛

4. Do you have a NoTP in your fandom? Are they a popular OTP?

This is known, of course, but Be//arke. Part of why I dislike them is because they’re such a popular OTP, and because I get a little bored with seeing that subsection of the fandom make everything that happens in this show about their ship.

That being said, I’ve been less salty about it lately. 

We will finally know, one way or the other, what the writers have intended all along, with the upcoming series finale. 

Either they will be an explicitly romantic couple, or they won’t.

Because it’s undeniable that they care for each other, deeply, or that we’re meant to get that impression, at least. They love each other, however ill-defined what exactly the nature of that love is has been on screen. They are each other’s buttons, the one person they’ll each go way too far for, even when other people would make more sense as hostages or bait. 

Bellamy spent all of s6 ignoring his canonical girlfriend so he could save Clarke. It was a snapshot of a few days within that universe, but it’s really hard for me to still be like “B/C shippers are delusional, smell my skeptic farts, mreh heh heh” when the past season emphasized their connection so much. He visibly mourned Clarke in a way that we did not see him mourn Monty and Harper, who he spent a lot more time with. He immediately supported Clarke at the beginning of the season, despite everyone else in his family being (imo, rightfully) very upset with her recent betrayals. He was shown to be in conflict with Echo more than with Clarke this past season - although he and Echo made up and are still solid, from where I’m standing. So that’s messy and kind of unsettling. What’s the plan with that?

Because if the writers aren’t headed towards an explicitly romantic relationship, they’re doing a hell of a job stringing B/C shippers along. 

And that leaves a bad taste in my mouth, regardless of how I’ve always felt about those characters as a ship. The writers and actors are far from oblivious about how that section of the fandom feels. The idea that they might be muddying the waters for no reason other than to fuck with people bothers me. It never used to, but it does now.

I’d actually prefer that they were headed towards a Be//arke Happily Ever After, than that they were stringing along their fanbase that way.

More likely, if history is any indication, things will still be muddy, one of them will die (my money is on Bellamy at this point, because of Bob’s subtweets apparently referencing Be//arke) and we’ll still find ways to argue about it for as long as the fandom persists after the show is over.

So at this point, they’re a NoTP for me, but I’m not super salty about it like I used to be. A year from now (hopefully) we’ll have the answers. Nobody can really say exactly what kind of love exists between Bellamy and Clarke until we see how it ends for them.

12. Is there an unpopular arc that you like that the fandom doesn’t? Why?

I used to say The Flame, but lately, I feel they really fumbled the potential that plot device had in s6. I just wasn’t as engaged with the Sheidheda concept as I could’ve been. Too many holes, too much missing backstory, too much blown potential in showing us other Hedas, outside of Lexa, Sheidheda, and Madi.

So these days, I’d have to say that I probably have an unpopular viewpoint for a Clexa shipper - Clexa wasn’t healthy, and was always doomed. The showrunners didn’t realize the sociopolitical impact that would have, because they attempted to take the same blase, non-issue attitude towards sexual orientation that the universe of The 100 has. I think the Clexa story played out exactly as it was always meant to, and if you strip it of its real world implications, it’s some of the best and most heartbreaking bit of character work that the show has ever done. 

It’s not about a timeless love story, but about the tragedy of a budding affection between two young women caught up in the politics of war and their opposing cultures - a tragedy which has nothing to do with them being wlws, and everything to do with them being oppositional leaders, and kindred spirits in a violent world. They were shaped into cold pragmatists, but around each other, they allowed a certain level of vulnerability and softness of the other person. That was what was beautiful, and the tragedy is in the truth that a connection like that never would’ve thrived in the world of The 100.

I’ll always love Clexa, but I don’t feel much like a Clexa, if that makes sense.

13.  Unpopular opinion about XXX character?

I’m going to go with Jasper. The general consensus that I see a lot about him seems to be that he was a better character before 2x16, that people miss Puppy Love Jasper. Some even go so far as to say that his arc didn’t make sense, that he was annoying or a whiny brat in s3 and s4. I couldn’t disagree with that interpretation more.

I feel a lot of people don’t fully understand the series from Jasper’s perspective. There is so much he’s unaware of, so much he witnesses, and so much he misses out on. There is so much implied loss in his life, much more than just Maya. I don’t believe her death is the sole thing that drove him over the edge - I think it was simply the final straw.

Before he’s locked away in Mount Weather, Jasper is shown to have a few close friends - Monty, of course, but also Finn, and Octavia. He spends the most time with all of them, and ends up losing all of them, on some level, by season 3. 

He struggles to forgive Monty for his part in the Mount Weather genocide. 

We never see him receive the news of how Finn died, and I think, given the way Jasper talks about him (“looks like Finn finally got his peace talks”; “you hear that Finn? he thinks he’s innocent, none of us is innocent!”) - I think we’re meant to assume that people sugarcoated it, and that Jasper doesn’t know the extent of Finn’s crimes. So in his eyes, he loses a good friend to a pointless war. 

Octavia falls in love with someone else, just a few days after kissing Jasper, and ends up so busy with her new culture that she more or less abandons him. Monty and Octavia (and later, Harper) all try to reach Jasper, but he’s too far gone at that point - he’s too alone. 

He also loses his parents (he mentions them in s1, and then we never hear about them again, so I think we can assume they died either in the Culling or on the way down to the ground, when the Ark crashes.) 

And he has his budding leadership crushed, his hope that he can somehow impact the future, and prevent the horror around him snatched away, by his former leaders genociding an entire civilization, including people who helped them, including the first girl he ever loved. She dies in his arms, though, in case the general horror of that wasn’t enough.

He loses so much more than just Maya.

He loses more than just about anybody, and it all happens to him while he’s fifteen years old.

Justice for Jasper Jordan. My heart always hurts when I think of him, and I hate to see people talk so poorly of him.

This is so long, and I could go on about Jasper forever, so I’ll stop now. Thank you so much again for the questions, and I hope you enjoy the essays you totally did not ask for, lmao!

2, 8, 12 &30 for Jesse Jordans!

2. What is one of your character’s biggest insecurities? Are they able to hide it easily or can others easily exploit this weakness?

to the outside world, jesse jordan seems like a rough and tumble reckless bastard of an outlaw. to the ones who know him closely, he’s pretty much the same. it’s safe to say that he hides his insecurities well. but his biggest one is that he’s terrified of never being good enough. for anyone, really. he’s an overachiever and extra as hell, but he’s absolutely scared of never being good enough.

8. What is, perhaps, their biggest flaw? Are they aware of this or oblivious to it?

he’s reckless. it’s served him pretty well out in the lawless west so far, but jesse is aware of that some place in his mind, that he’s not careful enough. he just doesn’t care about it. 

12.  Is there some particular talent, skill, or attribute that they simply could not give up?

not many people know this, but jesse plays the fiddle, and quite well too! he was taught in his youth, and he never really forgot it. he loves playing it, too, but he doesn’t quite do it anymore. still, he practices as much as he can, as it reminds him of when he was younger. 

30. When it comes to the arts (music, film, theater, etc), what does your character like? 

plays!! jesse adores watching raunchy comedy plays. shocking, i know lmao

I love Taylor so very much and I'm so so happy she's finally voicing her political opinions and stances!! but I think this needs to be said to encourage Taylor and everyone who read Taylors interview on Rolling Stone to educate themselves when it comes to politics –

"We were in such an amazing time when Obama was president because foreign nations respected us. We were so excited to have this dignified person in the White House. My first election was voting for him when he made it into office, and then voting to re-elect him."

I think Obama was definitely the best candidate at the time but saying that we were in an amazing time when Obama was president is coming from a place of privilege or you were just oblivious. I hope anyone who assumes that everything was good when he was in office educates themselves on his immigration records, gun laws, and the inhumane things he did in the Middle East.

 "We need to stop dissecting why someone’s on our side or if they’re on our side in the right way or if they phrased it correctly. We need to not have the right kind of Democrat and the wrong kind of Democrat. We need to just be like, “You’re a Democrat? Sick. Get in the car. We’re going to the mall."

This particularly rubbed me off the wrong way. Just because someone is a Democrat it doesn't automatically mean they can't be just as racist as Republicans. I've met so many Democrats who were racist, islamophobic or xenophobic. If a Democratic candidate is racist or doesn't fit progressive standards, we shouldn't have to accept them or tolerate their bigotry.

(please watch Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele lmao)

All in all, I know Taylor has only just started finding her voice in terms of politics and I'm SO proud of her, but I do hope she continues to educate herself about it since it's all very complex.

Love you so much @taylorswift

♔♕♣☀♥ ok im done

Send me a ♔ for me to describe a favorite rp character of mine.

i guess i should talk about agnes since i know she’s your bae??? no but agnes has been my bb from the start (shout out to @naomismallsvevo​ for carving her path for me way back when) and she’ll probably always be a fave of mine. i love how she’s driven by kindness, compassion and love and is a good friend to anyone she meets. i also love that she has the mouth of a toddler and says whatever comes to her head lmao. sometimes it’s nice to just play a character that doesn’t have any baggage or a struggle, and that’s exactly how i feel about her. my lil freeloading oblivious fashionista deserves the world and i’m glad jasper is helping give that to her 💕

Send me a ♕ for me to describe favorite rp character of someone else’s. 

it’s no secret that i love all of your characters but i have to take a second to appreciate cassandra (only because i’ve already mentioned chase in one of these memes but lbr, he deserves a whole novel based on how much i love him). cassandra is one of those characters that has such heavy content and could go awry real quick if they’re not played correctly. both you and cass know how i afraid i was of that happening, so i couldn’t be more thankful that you snatched her up and saved me and the rest of the cast from that possibility. cass somehow manages to be both messy and loveable at the same time, and more than anything i love how human she is. even though she sleeps on my boy, i still love her to death and am v happy to write opposite of her 😊

Send me a ♥ for me to describe a favorite rp ship of mine.

i’m gonna talk about a friendship because i’m tired of being sappy. @pgwrites​ ruined my life by bringing ezra into second gen and i’ll always resent her for not only bringing elliot fletcher onto the dash, but for creating the worst character known to man. apparently layla doesn’t love herself because she refers to that dumbass as her best friend, but whatever, they drink henney and joke around like idiots so i have no choice but to adore them.

Send me a ♣ for me to describe a favorite rp ship of someone else’s.

fuck your breakup, this still counts as a ship. i’m lowkey trash for liam and jordan. no one better tell ash or i stg @honestlymurderforacokezero​

Send me a ☀ for me to talk about someone I’ve met through rp.

i’m gonna talk about rosie because when do i not @jihyunsglasses​ rosie is deadass the most savage person i know and i love her for it. some of my favorite rp memories have been with her and i couldn’t be more thankful for the friendship we have together. thanks for killing me with all of your characters and for relating to the asian flush, THE STRUGGLE IS REAL. (also for dragging my enemies, much appreciated xoxo)

last night was fun!!! i started getting the Bad Sads around 11 while i was waiting for mike to pick me up and my anxiety and shitty feelings made me cancel at first and i just told mike i wasn’t up to it anymore and he came to my apartment with his best friend isaac (who is the NICEST person on planet earth i love him so much) to talk to me and cheer me up a little and they didn’t pressure me to go or anything but i ended up deciding to

the party kind of sucked we hung out for a bit when we first got there and drank a little and this random guy came up to me and was like “do i know you from somewhere? you just seem so familiar i think we’ve met before” and i said no but he introduced himself to me and when he walked away mike and isaac were like “OOOH BEA-SIM GOT HIT ON IN THE FIRST 15 MINUTES” lmao, i honestly didn’t think he was flirting but i’m oblivious af

and then we played beer pong at which i was initially Not Good but THEN I WON FOR OUR TEAM SO NICE (and i was almost completely sober)

but our friend ustina (the one who invited us/who’s graduating) was fucking smashed before we even got there so we kind of took care of her for most of the night which was fine; she’s a fun drunk and i walked her to her friend’s car who was taking her home and i exchanged numbers with her friend so she could let me know when ustina got back and everything

we got back at like almost 4 and i’m tired as FUCK but it was a good time, i wish jordan could’ve gone but i still enjoyed myself

And to end this, how do you know she had no personality? You don't know her at all. You've never met either of them and have no room to day shit about what either of them are like in real life. They're happy. He likes her. He thinks she's beautiful. So do mass amounts of other people. You don't? GOOD FOR YOU! doesn't mean you can't claim she isn't good enough for him. Or any of the other nonsense you dribble on about.

Well I do know for a fact she’s a bad influence on him and bitch please I’ve met waaay beautiful girls than her lmaooo. Plus, they actually have a good personality. I do know Jordan had a lousy personality because she was quite rude to me on Tumblr. Instead of sorting out the dating issue as a mature 26 year old, she threw a hissy fit at me. Then, I blocked her but after a while unblocked her because I wanted to have a clean slate. I don’t know if you’re Jordan who’s writing this anon lmao but whoever you are, this is my blog and clearly I have a lot of anons asking about their relationships and how it’s awful. Either you’re completely oblivious or braindead. 

The thing is I have witnessed her awful personality but you haven’t so technically YOU DON’T KNOW HER HAHA

Btw I am not jealous of their relationship but I just feel sorry for Leafy for having to choose Jordan. If he picked a youtuber,twitch streamer or anyone else who’s actually kind towards his fans and motivate him to make better content, then I would be happy for their relationship. A relationship has to benefit both parties, it can’t be one sided..

[kbunburyhelps]

no no no, i'm talking about the same producer that you are. just when he stepped up to talk, jordan (the first guy) had realized the envelope had the wrong slip bc he was the one who ended up with it. while the last guy was speaking jordan asked a stagehand for the right envelope and everyone was realizing what had happened. the last producer was oblivious bc he was pouring his heart out to his family lmao, poor guy. and i can't even blame him for kind of sneering that they lost bc it's bizarre.

Lol nonnie, I think we both need like a slow replay like when they're showing things in football or soccer. lol by Jordan you mean the first producer talking right? Okay so what it seemed like to me was that they realized their mistake during the first producer talking and they were sorting it out or trying to and then maybe the last dude speaking didn't hear or I don't know it seemed to me like he heard but still wanted to get his words out, I could be wrong and I'm open to being wrong because I'd like to think people aren't rude but I'm just saying what I saw. I did see him turn around to walk away before saying "oh by the way we lost" but to me it seemed like he knew before he said that. I understand he's pissed and I honestly can't blame him, it sucks but I think for me it just completely felt like the wrong moment for him to express it.
