#anyway noel is gay as fuck

i decided to draw that actually. ngl there's probably some kind of canon scene where noel finds out sirius's name that contradicts the first drawing (i dont remember all the scenes i know im a fake fan) but the point is less the introduction and more noel's internal panic so it doesn't matter
this is the day he turned gay
i posted about this on my old blog before but just to make sure my current followers know:
sirius is the name of a star located in the constellation canis major (greater dog). it also just so happens to be the brightest star in our sky. you know, besides the sun.
like. we have a man fixated on stars and a man who is named after the brightest star and that is actually insane
i imagine when noel first learned sirius's name he started ABSOLUTELY FREAKING OUT inside but pretended he wasn't and has just been very insane about that fact ever since
#witch's heart spoilers#sirius gibson#noel levine#sirinoel#ngl i popped off i think this is some of the best art ive posted here#well ok its actually pretty lazily drawn theres so many errors but like#i used a bunch of cheap tricks to make it closer to that “eye candy” style i love#white outlines my beloved#the shading style is very simple but also looks cool#going forward i hope to post more stuff like this#even looking back at older drawings on the blog i kinda dont like how they look much at all#mb ill redraw#im kinda going thru a rapid art development period where over the span of months i become dissatisfied with old art i think#anyway noel is gay as fuck#drawings#full color

I saw a post that was talking about how we “ignore” Oceans ableism and it made me go insane because I’ve not seen a single person who SAW her ableism and ACKNOWLEDGED it and didn’t make sure that they drew her character in a much more welcoming and inviting light…. Yes she’s ableist. Every fucking popular white kid in southern Canada is, sorry. SHE’S A CARICATURE. OF ANNOYING POPULAR WHITE KIDS. SHES ALSO SO WEIRD ABOUT MISCHA BEING UKRAINIAN. SHES WEIRD ABOUT CONSTANCE BEING PLUS SIZE. SHES A CARICATURE OF AWFUL POPULAR KIDS.
sorry I genuinely feel like I’m going insane by saying this but I feel like the fandom has completely acknowledged this and understands this this like. Shouldn’t be controversial. Like all these other characters suck too by some standard if you want to stretch it that way; Noel romanticizing sexual assault, STDs, ect ! Constance’s insane sexualization of gay men ! Ricky… no actually? Ricky is perfect. But all these characters are AWFUL by some sort of far-fetched standard and it’s so weird to try and ‘call out’ a fandom for just?? enjoying the characters and blatant face value. anyways, rant over. guess who’s back to being controversial in the rtc fandom YIPPEE ! Media literacy is very dead !
#rtc#rtc musical#ride the cyclone#ride the cyclone musical#media literacy is dead#MEDIA LITERACY IS DEAD.#ocean oconnell rosenberg#I LOVE OCEAN OCONNELL ROSENBERG#AND I LOVE NOEL GRUBER#AND ESPECIALLY CONSTANCE BLACKWOOD#AND THEY ALL SUCK!#AND IDNGAF !!

It's so weird how the whole manosphere dudes are all about how you need to be tough and manly to get more chicks. Like that's just objectively untrue. Mick Jagger? Prince? Anyone from BTS? Hell, Noel Fielding fucked half the women in England in the 2000s and did it dressed like a gay emo clown. The Tom Sellecks of the world aren't the only ones who pull.
And if your truest self is to be a little princess boy but you try to be a big tough macho guy anyway, you're just gonna look silly. And then you get NO pussy.

"I need some air. The stupidity in here is making me feel faint."
Kim Pine RP and general Scott Pilgrim fandom blog; Asks always open (unless they get flooded, I suppose)
["Current" Event: GAME OVER! RESTART...?]
(Currently answering asks outside of the event and at a staggered rate; apologies for delays.)
Blog should be running on central time, I think, but I sleep at weird hours anyway.
Generally asking that you just be decent people, or make your asks exaggerated/obviously part of the bit you're building if you're going a certain direction. If I catch even a whiff of genuine bigotry, though, you're out pal.
NSFW asks tentatively allowed (until someone is a freak about it) [I need to clarify now that I mean this within the rp context: I will field nonRP NSFW asks without complaint. Stop. Bothering. The. Minors.]
Generally fine running separate continuities for Kim, you just need to specify, otherwise I'm working with my current amalgam of canon Kim stuff + blog canon (like anon shenanigans and stuff) (Bonus points if you can name our tag for me)
Theoretical fine with ship interactions, especially gay ones, but DO NOT ENGAGE ME IN THIS MANNER IF YOU ARE A MINOR! Thank you!
Characters I'm not interested in fielding ship content for: Lucas Lee, Hollie Hawkes*, Jason Kim*, basically any evil ex (aside from Roxie,,, maybe Patel,,,) Julie (...?)
Probably more but I don't expect it to be an issue, really- I don't think I've seen blogs for many of these or other characters
*nothing beyond acknowledging canon for Jason, theoretical cool with Hollie actually, it'd just need to be in a specific font, like some of the ones I am fine with but haven't specified- notably, with an understanding that as I write Kim, she could have feelings for Hollie, but after Jason has no interest in pursuing that (so for SPTO or pre-Jason stuff, specify and I'll consider!)

OOC
Hi, welcome to the blog! When addressing me, just call me Pine; if you want to call me Pine in a RP ask, just note that somehow so I understand. I am 24, so please keep this in mind when interacting! My ooc tags are ooc, txt, and art (which I post my art under, obviously, so it may feature RP stuff.) OOC is sort of the catch-all?
I have an AO3 where you can see what fics I'm working on/have written.
Here's various versions of the media and how Hinged I am about them (answer: not very)
Movie: Least favorite Scott/iteration in general; fuck does it have some good lines though. Damnit. (I really do like a lot of aspects of it, but it IS my least favorite.)
Comics: 2 rereads down, favorite version; currently collecting panels for those with requests or questions relative to them (Starting 6 soon)
Show: Watched twice in full, halfway through a third run! (And set to collect Kim screencaps from episode 3!) Contender for favorite version, but has a lot of flaws, I will admit. (Also, begging for a "They Dated" extended cut from someone, please- I'd draw something for you maybe--)
Game: Very fun actually! Didn't know I could be good at this type of game; I have notes on most of the item stats for anyone that needs them- gonna start labeling every instance of the named NPCs eventually

sorry to come into your ask box but i just rewatched mickey’s coming out scene and i just… i get choked up every time. i love ian but i also feel like he pressured mickey into coming out. of course he had to set his own boundaries but he KNEW how badly mickey was treated when it came to his sexuality, it’s almost seemed cruel to give him that ultimatum in some way. but then mickey comes out and all he could do was look at ian and ask if he was happy!!!! like i cant even explain all the emotions noel was able to put into his voice in that moment, it literally break me just thinking about it! he knew what was coming and he still only wanted ian to be happy.. thats really just something. i dont even have words for it but i wanna let out the loudest scream about it
hello sweet thing!! you're always welcome here💕
tbh the coming out scene always reminds me of noel's fucking beautiful ig post about Ian's character but especially 'the truly remarkable thing about Ian's inner courage is that it's infectious. to put it simply, he's brave and an undeniable reminder to those around him; they can be brave too.'
I used to absolutely not be at all but I am definitely an Ian defender about this to a certain extent.
like do we enjoy ultimatums? fuck no. it's a shitty way to go about it. BUT I have to think about what's probably going through Ian's head, right? keeping in mind he's in/just coming down from what we can only assume is his first ever manic episode.
mickey came to find him, literally carried him home and protected him from creeps. gave him a place to stay and didn't just plonk him on the Gallagher's doorstep, actively chose him over his marriage. went to the Gallagher's when Svetlana kicked him out and asked him to come back, agreed to do whatever he wanted to get him to stay with him. slept next to his tiny bed on the floor.
mickey kissed him, full on made out with him in public!! that's so huge!! he accepted an invitation to a little gay party with ian's new friends. he slept in the same bed with him without fear in a house full of strangers!! he doesn't even know that mickey told that guy that they were together 😭
we all know mickey is an acts of service girlie but Ian is the kind of person that needs to hear it too. and when Ian DOES ask it's 'of course we are'. like it's a given. mickey doesn't need to have the conversation, but Ian does. and as far as mickey's concerned 'it's working out so far so good' to be a couple that hides.
there's a million reasons mickey might want to still keep them a bit of a secret (though its a pretty open secret at that point). sure I think some of it is to protect his reputation, to not have any sort of weakness, and to some extent I think he feels a lot of pressure in protecting the reputation of the Milkovich name, no matter how infamous it is. maybe because of how infamous it is.
but I also think it's because what he has with Ian is theirs. and its something in both of their lives that's genuinely really beautiful.
like not to bring up 3x666 but that's obviously the moment that the bubble really burst. he had built up this little secret life with Ian behind closed doors and he was opening up! he was falling in love! and once people (Terry) found out it was just ripped open completely. ruined. I think there's some element of mickey wanting them to be back at that place before it all went to shit. which of course, they never can be.
just like when Ian starts heading for the door in the alibi. he doesn't think mickey's going to do it. Ian's going to walk out and not see Mickey for a while and then in a few weeks it'll be 'just cuz I've got a wife and kid doesn't mean we can't still bang' like it was back then.
but now mickey knows what it's like to lose him and he doesn't ever want to do it again (which 🥲 but anyway)
the fact that when Ian tells mickey he's sick of living a lie mickey's immediate response is 'I'm not lying to you' somebody fucking sedate me
and of course Ian wants mickey to come out so that they can be together but 'you're not free' absolutely kills me because he just wants mickey to be okay with being himself openly. and 'what you and I have makes me free' and ian's FAAAACE but then Terry shows up and he has to watch mickey tear himself away and go straight back in the cage and it hurts. of course it hurts.
so Ian drinks a little and lets himself stew and shoves mickey toward the edge of the cliff.
mickey's voice when Ian tells him not to bother coming back and he says 'what the fuck are you talking about?' breaks my heart every time because they're fine, aren't they? they just have to get through this bad thing and then they can go back to their little bubble.
mickey's always in survival mode, just varying degrees of severity. you can see him, literally see it on his face, weighing the options.
what's gonna happen if he does nothing? he's going to watch Ian leave. again. he's going to get blackout drunk and go home with his wife and his son and his fucking dad and wake up like that every morning for however long he can stand it. he's going to be walking on the eggshells of his own broken heart.
what's gonna happen if he says something? he's going to be physically hurt. he's going to bleed. he's going to have to bite and scratch his way out of that bar unless he's arrested or knocked out first. there's hopefully enough people around to keep Terry from straight up killing him. and what else? Ian stays. Ian stays and they get to go home together. take care of each other. sickness, health, all that shit.
so he does it. he shouts and he bangs on that table and he says it and hes fucking brave!! because he might think he's fucked for life but he has one beautiful thing that's worth fighting for!!
oh my god and him asking 'you happy now?' I fucking knooowwwwww honestly it makes me a little bit? insane? there is SO much going on there.
fucking getting everyone's attention to announce he's fucking gay and 'I just thought everyone should know that' and then looking at the only other openly gay person in the room and going 'you happy now?' jEEEEEsus like?????????
the eyebrow raise as well like 'you know exactly what's gonna happen now' and of course it does.
but Ian absolutely no hesitation gets stuck right into the fight!! and he says 'I've wanted to do this forever' which, same babe. I too would take a chair to the back wrestlemania style to defend mickey milkovich.
all my blorbos shitty dads I would be in your walls but you're all dead so✌️
#I can just go on and on about this apparently#this is literally over 1k im sorryhfkd idk what happened to me#answered#gallavich#gallavich meta#shameless

Penny, what happened during the sleepover?
*whispers* Hehehehehehehehe… we have to wait till they leave
*whispers back* on it *does something to get Mischa and Noel to leave the room*
*still hyped on redbull* WHOO gossip sesh
[not if you’re yelling it to the rooftops]
Sorryyyyyyy
Anyway, we usually go over to Noel’s for movie night, and last week was his turn to pick too
He picked Night at the Museum
[we all know he didn’t do it for the plot, he did it for Jedidiah and Octavius]
Awww I love those little gay dudes!
*COUGH*
Oh yeah, well anyway we were almost done with the movie, and Ocean and Connie were already zonked out-
Heyyyy!!
[its true! What was the sleepover setup again?]
I remember! It was you and Penny on opposite ends of the couch, I was in the armchair, Connie was on the floor in front of me, and Noel and Mischa were taking up the rest of the floor space.
Could you let me finish? Well, it ends, and I turn it off, and Ricky’s pointing to the floor. So I look over, and Mischa’s all asleep and snuggled up to Noel, and he’s asleep too!!!
[barely. Mischa fell asleep first and I had to try and get Noel to stop freaking the fuck out]
Obviously that’s as far from straight as you can get, at least in Mischa’s case. I told him about it and he was absolutely mortified.
He denies it ever happened
[Well I have picture proof!]
WHAT?! Really?!? Send them now!!
[no! What good is blackmail if I share it with everyone?]
(Sorry another long one, I had wayyyyy too much fun (someone stop me I’m obsessed with nischa))
#nischa confirmed?#ride the cyclone#rtc musical#penny lamb#jane doe rtc#ocean rtc#connie rtc#constance rtc#ricky rtc#ask the cyclone

constance hcs if u don't mind? sorry for asking (did i already ask like,, 5 minutes ago i cant remember shit)
I had to copy them down, and definitely add more stuff to some of them so I apologize for the late response.
Constance headcanons below the cut
I think she's like surprisingly strong. I had after school activity headcanons for all of the choir and I put her on the swim team and also rugby apparently?? I think that was just me being a lesbian, but anyway. I put her on the swim team since that is literally the only sport I could think of where like the literal sweetest people are at least in my school, I also just like making Ocean's assumptions about everyone really wrong. That punch in the boob must've really fucking hurt and honestly deserved.
On the note of extra curriculars, she is definitely a band kid and plays the flute in band to reflect the sugar cloud recorder solo. She's probably forced to join every club Ocean signs up for and doesn't really enjoy being there, but she took a creative writing class with Ricky and Noel and did actually really like that.
Speaking of which she has definitely written fanfics on AO3, she seems like the type to be writing a 50k slow burn romance of two like background characters in a show or movie and then never update it ever again until she comes back and writes a completely different fanfic.
I made every member of the choir autistic regardless but I believe she has persistent depressive disorder, which is just chronic depression in much simpler terms, it's not fun.
She dyed her hair different colors constantly, not just purple; she just happened to die with the purple dye. She also is just the choir's hairdresser at points, and has dyed every choir member's hair at least once except Ocean because she's Ocean and doesn't want to experience joy. Mischa went with some like awful neon blue and despite Constance knowing how awful that would turn out he was now cursed with having blue raspberry slurpee hair for a week.
She does Kandi and makes bracelets for all the choir members, as well as super intricate designs like the animal beads and stuff like that. She also did rainbow loom so much, just has so many bracelets made stashed away in her drawers.
She unironically takes BuzzFeed quizzes and makes the whole choir do them with her; she'd genuinely redirect Mischa to those "Am I gay" quizzes when he questioned his sexuality.
She seems like she's the only one in the choir with a good sleep schedule but she's just amazing at hiding her depression and declining mental health since she's been doing it ever since she was in middle school.
She definitely had a small crush on Penny when she was first introduced to the choir, because of the mysterious attitude. But the trance would immediately get wiped away as she witnesses Penny just fall down the stairs tripping over nothing.
The only ships I heavily ship with Constance is candyrapper and sugarspace, and y'know in some universe of my art she is definitely in a poly relationship with them AND Talia, and I just want the world to know my vision. (Actually this idea is now haunting me and I might literally draw this crack ship I just made up uhm-)
Gets along the most with literally everyone but Ocean. They used to have a genuine non toxic relationship in elementary school, but she was probably just looking at the relationship through rose-colored glasses since she was just a kid…

YAY THE ASK BLOG IS REAL!! not an in character ask (unless u want em to answer I'll take either :>) but what're the choir's pronouns n stuff? I wanna know the headcanons for this one (especially Ricky just bc I love seeing the varying gender headcanons for em :3)
Sorry it took me so long to get to this!
Ocean- "she/her." Never really did any questioning gender-wise.
Constance- "she/her." But if you referred to Constance as "they," probably wouldn't care.
Noel- "he/him," maybe "she?" Probably cis, right? Not trans, but really hasn't had time to think of going by different pronouns. Being gay is bad enough, so he should probably stop thinking about it too hard. He doesn't want to be a girl, just that fucked up girl. But like... feminine pronouns? Stop thinking about it-
Misha- "he/him." But also probably wouldn't care if referred to as "they."
Ricky- "they/he," prefers "they." Hasn't really opened up to the choir about it. Noel has his suspicions now that they've gotten to know each other a little, Misha too. They'll tell everyone eventually, when there's a more appropriate time.
Penny- "she/her." Also probably wouldn't mind "they." Gender is a strange concept when she thinks about it, but hey she prefers feminine stuff so whatever.
Bonus:
Ezra- "he/they," or go wild. Already knows they don't really care about pronouns that much. Gender is a social construct, anyways. Has yet to discover neopronouns.

Shout-out to @pennylambchops who actually made an argument against me, instead of just telling me I'm wrong! I appreciate it.
Anyway, let's get into it, shall we?
“he is explicitly SAID to be gay. yes, gay doesn’t only mean mlm/nwlnw in some cases but in noels IT DOES.” Yeah, that's fair. I've nothing to say in my defense on that one, it was one of my weaker points tbf.
“fanon very rarely affects canon” FINALLY someone who recognises that I don't think mspec Noel is canon! Thank you!
“i feel like we should still base what we do and what we say about characters a little bit off of canon.” Very fair. I mean, if we just start doing anything we want with characters, we might as well just write an original work. But in this hypothetical case, I'd only be changing his sexuality from gay/mlm to somewhere else on the queer spectrum, it's not like I would drastically change who he is as a person (or maybe I would; with Noel being a very stereotypical gay man, having him be some other label of queer might be detrimental to his character. But imo, that is a problem on Richmond and/or Maxwell's end for making him a walking stereotype and not mine for wanting to mess with it)
“but you choose to ship the gay character with woman.” No I don't! Nowhere in any confession I made did I say *I* ship Noel with any of the women in RTC. I am in fact a Nischa shipper 100%. I just said you could, if you wanted to and if you wrote it well enough that it could be explained (not that it necessarily has to fit in with canon if you don't want it to)
“if you like a dynamic so much between noel and a woman you could maybe idk, make platonic content for it since platonic love is just as important as romantic love” That is exactly what I'm doing. In fact, I think we need more platonic Noel and Constance stuff, because the few moments they share in the musical are actually so sweet and I feel like no one appreciates that enough.
“using sexuality is fluid is also a dumb excuse for making him not gay. because not everyones sexuality is fluid, some people are simply just attracted to gender and that doesn’t change ever.” You're correct, some people's sexualities don't change. And the same could apply for Noel, but it might not. His sexuality might be fluid, or it might not. It's up to the writer, really.
“dont start a hissy fit when people get upset over you taking away their representation.” I'm not taking away anyone's representation. Mostly because I don't actually ship what we are discussing, but even if I did, that hypothetical fanfic would be in my tiny corner of the internet, and if people think my singular, hypothetical work in about 3,000 fics across ao3 and fanfiction.net would affect anything, then I'm fucking honoured that I'm though of so highly in this fandom /s

https://www.tumblr.com/real-total-drama-takes/731464074454597632/im-sick-of-ride-the-cyclone-aus-that-cast-noah-as
I don’t want to extensively rant about AUs on here but I’m sure there’s a big enough intersection between TD fans and RTC fans right. Anyway yeah this take is pretty true sorry sugdbdbjshdjdsjb but there’s reasons for it being a constant
In seriousness, I’m trying to think of who in gen 1 (or even anyone in TD?) would fit as Noel, bc Noel has a very specific character niche even if he just seems like The Gay One. He romanticizes nihilism to a comical extent where his dream is to like, die alone in a French alley from typhoid fever. Like that’s appealing to him. Who the fuck would want to do that ever.
Noah works best for the silly one liner insults Noel does (I also think ‘you challenged my notion that all gay dudes are fun to be around’ would be like the best way to describe him) but I’m genuinely lost here lmfao. Izzy is actually pretty into acting and being dramatic and probably would fantasize about living some kind of insane life like that, but that’s stretching one part of her character to an extreme. I think it could work if you played your cards right though. That’s all I’ve got there bud, hope you find your dream AU one day and if I read any more Noah-centric takes my brain will explode into mush
My second take here is that I would keep Courtney as Constance and have Gwen be Constance, bc while the personalities of Gwen and Constance are 100% different, a) Constance and Ocean’s dynamic isn’t going to click if it’s just like. Fuckin Beth or something? And b) Gwen would totally have that moment that is Jawbreaker, cuz she’s The Loner, her whole life she’s probably been avoiding getting attached to people or things or even just like letting herself let loose and enjoy life, and I think her death being what opens her eyes to the world around her would be fucking awesome
Harold is literally just Ricky in a past life or something though if you choose anyone else you’re kidding yourself

pll rewatch 2x17
Emily (and even her phone) are dragged into being secretaries for her friends’ heterosexual dramas :/
Emily literally does not have her own plotline this episode, she just gets absorbed into the Spoby drama. Don’t get me wrong, there’s stuff I love here, like Emily’s comically bad “Spencer is unable to come to the phone right now”
But I am pretty meh on Emily not getting her own stuff to do, and the way the disparity between f/f and f/m relationships on the show feels starker in S2
It’s good/convenient that Caleb is a newcomer to Rosewood, so that when he hacks these videos of a bunch of weirdos hanging out in Ali’s room, it’s not like he has any prior beef or knowledge that would skew his efforts
The girls all think Holden is gay because he’s never tried to kiss Aria. Aria, the one true test for any boy’s heterosexuality apparently.
Do enjoy Emily looking a little smug as she explains what a beard is, even though everyone clearly knows.
My notes: “I’m so bored of Ezria.” Indeed.
We get another glimpse of Halloween 2008 when the girls find the threatening notes A sent Ali, which is a nice connection that episode. Ali really was experiencing it all that night huh.
Toby gets injured via the wobbliest scaffolding sabotage. A really does not want Spoby to date, is extra invested in it, and I’m unclear why.
I mean, A threatened Ezria with reveals before but A saved Ezria via framing Noel and A has never put Ezra’s life in danger.
I wonder if it’s because Toby seems like the SO most likely to be told about A, given that he was investigating Ali’s murder with Spencer back in S1.
Most likely until Spencer’s protective instincts are kicked into overdrive here.
Toby gets to wake up to Jenna giving him all the standard abuser lines blah blah you can’t trust anyone but me blah blah no one is going to care about you like I do blah blah
Complete with creepy leg touch that makes Toby flinch
About Spencer, Jenna says “She’s haunted”. Not that Spencer is dangerous to Toby, but that Spencer is in danger, and by extension Toby’s in range to get hurt
Again, the girls really should tell Caleb, he’s already in danger if A can see someone is hacking into their phone. A’s not gonna be like wow, I bet Aria picked up Hacking For Dummies at the Rosewood Library and is the one exfiltrating my shit
Caleb confidently saying “I can protect you” to Hanna is very funny and very dude though, like bro you don’t even know what it is, and this angle of unearned confidence will only make Hanna more certain you won’t take the threat seriously
So Hanna destroys the thumbdrive in the blender. And later throws the blender in the trash can.
Hanna commits so much waste in this kitchen y’all. She’s thrown away a blender, just opened yogurt cups, uneaten takeout, my wallet winces at all of this.
Jenna is so fucking weird to Emily. Why does Jenna always talk to Emily as if Emily ever wanted to fuck Toby. She’s gay, Jenna. Like here’s their dialogue.
Emily: How dare you come here.
Jenna: Emily? I’d ask you the same thing.
Emily: I’m Toby’s friend.
Jenna: Well, there was a time you wanted to be more than that. Good thing he didn't feel the same way, or things would be awfully confusing with Maya, wouldn't they?
Emily: You're lucky I don't take that stick—
Jenna: Mm, careful, Emily. Misplaced anger can be dangerous.
Is Jenna just sooo distracted by her own rapey ways that she thinks everyone wants to fuck Toby. Maybe so.
Still enjoy Emily being terrible to the blind girl, always the liar most pissed at her somehow.
Oh so now Ella knows about Toby, where was this back when she thought Ezra/Spencer was a thing. Wait, didn’t Toby even come yelling in the police station about how much he loves Spencer too, while the other parents were there? Did Ella just assume Spencer was two-timing? Damn Ella
Anyway the Montgomerys are super into the Holden solution for their daughter, because they remain the silliest parents of the lot.
Spencer is so guilt-wridden about Toby. She stares through the window at his injured body instead of entering the room to sit by him. I very much enjoy how much the show has her brood, Spencer at heart should be a noir detective brooding through rainy windows
Spencer: Jenna's right. I'm putting Toby in danger, and I've always known it.
Emily: We've always done everything we can.
Spencer: It's not enough. It'll never be enough. I need you to do me a favor.
Emily: Anything.
As kicked puppy as Toby is this episode, I obviously care more about the Spemily angle here, where Emily agrees immediately even though she knows how deranged Spencer can get and does ultimately go through with the plan.
And the genre gender inversion of sorts, where Spencer, Emily, and Jenna are the actors upon Toby, while he is the acted upon, the one that is protected or hurt or violated
I like Emily’s little vest in the hospital scenes
I...have nothing to say about Ezra getting inspired by this random-ass student that we’ll never see again, other than I hate him. Not just for Ezria, but also because he stops his car in the middle of the road while it is raining to make out with Aria, thus blocking traffic. Park your damn car.
Got distracted wondering if the Hastings move when your daughter is dating an authority figure you don’t like is to hire a PI to follow him specifically to snag a photo of them kissing so that you can get him super fired and blacklisted everywhere.
Fields move would be police police police, Marin move would be to go :/ :/ but not actually do anything about it
While Toby and Wren talk I wonder if the show ever passes the reverse Bechdel test. I hope not.
Caleb goes to Spencer and Emily to offer his hacking services. They really are the investigative ringleaders this season, and Caleb once more proves himself to be the most integrated SO
Spencer discloses to Caleb that Jenna is trying to frame them, Garrett is helping her, and that Ian’s confession likely isn’t the full story.
Not a bad set of facts, but it does overstate their certainty on the Jenna question, which will lead Caleb to focus on her

Finding Noel
Noel, canon divergence, trans Noel, angst, dysphoria, mentions of suicidal thoughts, Jamie, flowershop, Tobi
1800 words
Author’s note: Noel pls don’t have an identity crisis. I just started writing this as a joke but then I was projecting a tiny little bit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a warm summer night on Coastle, the gay bar was bustling with life. Noel, drunk and silly, had climbed on the stage, everyone looking at him with annoyance. “Women are stupid!” he yelled. “And fat people are gross!” Everyone groaned, used to his antics and wishing he would shut up. Tobi sprung into action, his tail fluttering behind him as he got up on the stage and snatched the mic from Noel’s hand. “Thank you Noel, now get the fuck off my stage. Next up are the Mushy Boys with Cool Like That!”
He guided Noel off the stage into a backroom, where Jamie was doing some writing. They preferred the relative quiet over the suffocating loudness of the bar, and it was the perfect spot to work on their next story. He sighed when Noel and Tobi came in. “You’re here to annoy me now, Noel?” he scoffed. Noel ignored them and plunged himself down in a cozy chair in the corner. “Why are you always so hateful?” Jamie asked. “Am not!” Noel protested childishly. “You’re always so mean to everyone though. Why can’t you be nicer?” Tobi nodded in agreement. “You even made Synker destroy my cat room! Where are my cats meant to live now?” “Yeah!” Jamie continued. “Do you have hatred in your heart, Noel? Where is that coming from? Maybe you need to do some soul searching!”
Noel thought on this for a second. Maybe he was acting out of insecurity. Did he really know who he was? “I’m sorry, guys,” he said. “I know I’m horrible. I should just go.” Jamie, too kind for their own good, couldn’t help but feel empathatic towards the sad drunk boy in the corner. “It’s okay, Noel, it’s not too late to change. If you need someone to talk to I’m here for you.” Noel smiled, thankful that he had such a good friend. “Thanks. I just feel like I’m wrong in some way, like there’s a piece of me that doesn’t fit. Maybe that’s why I lash out so much.” Jamie nodded understandigly. Tobi rolled his eyes, muttered about not wanting to hear this cheesy shit and made his way back to the bar. Jamie was generally more patient and deciced to hear Noel out.
“Do you ever feel you don’t know who you really are?” Noel asked. Jamie chuckled. “Do I? That’s been my entire life.” “No, I mean, when you feel like people don’t see you for who you really are but you couldn’t describe what that would be anyway,” Noel continued, sounding frustrated. “I just feel so unsure about everything, I can’t trust any thought I have. Maybe that’s why I like making strong statements, it gives some amount of clarity.”
Jamie sighs. “Identity can be complicated,” he says. “It’s perfectly normal to feel unsure. I can’t give you any magical answers, other than trying to figure out what seems right for you and going from there.” After a moment of contemplative silence, they continued: “I went through a similar thing a few years ago. I’m not saying you’re the same, I don’t know how you feel, but I can certainly understand the pain that comes with constant doubt. I wanted to die every day. But if you can embrace the doubt and are open to the possibilities, you might just find a whole new side of yourself.”
Noel stared into the night sky, thinking about Jamie’s words. How was he supposed to embrace the thing that was causing him so much pain? It felt much safer to stay where he was. Being completely open meant abandoning everything he thought was true about himself, and he wasn’t sure he could handle that. “I’m just tired,” he mumbled. “I want to stop thinking forever.”
Jamie nodded, seeing the exhaustion on Noel’s face. “Come, I’ll take you home.” Noel made a dissaproving sound, but got up anyway. Jamie guided the dazed Noel through the gay bar, out the door and back to their tree house in the South. “Forgot I owned this place,” Noel mumbled. It was true Noel hadn’t spent even one night in his house since Jamie built it for him. He even had a bed here, which was unusual for him. Jamie wished him goodnight, leaving Noel alone with his thoughts.
After an hour of tossing and turning he finally managed to fall asleep. It was not a restful sleep, his subconscious mind still trying to process his conflicting thoughts. He dreamt he was on a train, watching the rain flow down the windows. The conductor asked to see is trainpass, adressing him as a woman. Wait, was she? Noel showed her pass, after which she returned to staring out the window. It was dark outside, and she could clearly see her reflection when she focused on it. Soft features stared back at her, and she felt a sense of peace and clarity. She was a woman, of course, how had she ever doubted it.
Noel woke up with a strange sensation, the remnants of the dream lingering in his mind like a dark cloud. He sat up in bed, his breath coming in shallow, ragged gasps as he tried to shake off the unsettling feeling that had settled over him. He reached his trembling hand up to his face, which was still as it had always been. He felt a pang of disappointment, followed by immediate guilt for entertaining the idea. He was a boy, a man, and the thought of him being anything else was completely ridiculous. There was a pit in his stomach that seemed to be getting worse. Tears welled in his eyes as he found himself wishing he could just be normal. He’d had these kind of dreams before, and he was able to shake them off at first, but the more they occurred the more real they felt. He didn’t want to feel this way, he wanted it to just stop.
Noel spent many weeks trying as hard as he could to distract himself from thinking about it again. He found people to talk to, play games with and even when he was alone he made sure that his mind was always occupied, just so he didn’t have to endure the doubt again. But his efforts were futile. Late at night in bed they would return, and the pit in his stomach never went away. He knew he couldn’t go on like this. Remembering his conversation with Jamie weeks ago, he decided with much resistance that it might be worth being more open to the possibilities. Was he supposed to just become a woman now? Would that solve all his problems?
Frustrated and tired, he decided to explore the option. Standing in front of the mirror, he stared at his face, trying to find some sort of hint of what he was supposed to be. Did he really see himself as a man? Was that how he truly felt or was he just so used to it because it was expected of him? Could he see himself as a woman? Looking at their face with different eyes, Noel felt a sense of recognition. They remembered times as a kid when they had dressed up in their sister’s clothes, going out to play with other kids hoping to be seen as a girl. They also remembered the disappointment they felt upon being gendered as a boy by his peers. It was a long time ago, and they hadn’t really thought of it again until now. Did it mean something? Was it a sign all along, or were they just overthinking it?
They needed to talk to someone, figuring this out on their own seemed impossible. Tobi was a good friend, but he surely wasn’t very good with advice. Binero would just call him crazy. Jamie was the obvious choice, but what if he thought they were just faking it? Maybe they shouldn’t tell anyone until they were absolutely sure, otherwise people would surely think they were crazy or just following a trend. Oh no, were they? Did someone push them into feeling this way? Noel felt like they were going crazy. They needed to talk to someone before they went truly mad.
Jamie was hard at work in the flower shop when Noel walked in. “Hello Noel, how can I help you?” he asked with a friendly smile. “I need advice,” Noel said. “Hold that thought. What flowers can I get you? Some nice sunflowers?” Jamie walked to the back. “Actually,” Noel started, “I need to talk to you about… gender?” Jamie raised an eyebrow, putting back the sunflowers. “Maybe some lilies then? You know, they are often associated with femininity.” Noel looked around nervously, making sure nobody had heard what they just said. Luckily there was nobody around. They knew that Binero would never let them hear the end of it.
“I think I might be a woman,” they blurted out. Jamie paused, his expression softening with understanding as he turned back to face Noel. “Sit down, let’s talk,” they said, gently guiding Noel to a table in the back of the shop. Noel sank into the chair, their nerves buzzing with a mixture of anxiety and relief at finally voicing their thoughts aloud. "I don't know what's happening to me," they admitted, their voice barely above a whisper. "I've been having these... thoughts, these feelings, and I don't know what to do."
Jamie took a seat opposite Noel, his eyes filled with empathy as he listened intently. "It's okay, Noel," he reassured him. "You're not alone in this. Gender is a complex and deeply personal journey, and it's perfectly normal to feel confused or uncertain." Noel nodded, a tear slipping down their cheek as they struggled to put their feelings into words. "I just... I've spent my whole life trying to fit into this... this box of masculinity," they admitted, their voice thick with emotion. "But lately, I've been feeling like maybe that's not who I am."
Jamie nodded in understanding, his gaze filled with warmth and acceptance. "It's okay to explore different aspects of your identity," he said softly. "You don't need to have all the answers right now, or ever really. Just take things one step at a time. Discover what feels right to you.” Noel nodded, feeling reassured by Jamie’s words.
Noel felt much lighter, and without the pressure of trying to find the answer, a sudden clarity befell her. “I am a woman,” she mumbled to herself, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. And then louder she proclaimed: “Ik ben een vrouw.” And for the first time in a long while, she felt truly whole herself, embracing every facet of her being.

The Noel Diary (a brief and belated review) (okay, we all know this won’t be brief, because these reviews are not ever brief)
The Good:
- Barrett being her usual cute self and a literal light in the darkness of this season
- Barrett singing, incredible as usual
- A cute dog, can’t ever go wrong with that
- Small town christmas vibes, kinda cute, even if it’s also kitschy
- The neighbour lady and her date/boyfriend, 10/10 would ship it again
- “If you said there was only one room left, this would be like a rom-com” was, again, kitschy, but given the tone of this movie I’ll allow it and give it a brief chuckle
- For half of this movie, Barrett’s (aka Rachel’s) outfits and hair were on point (you guess where you will find the other half of the movie)
- The overall somewhat diversity in this movie. I say that in direct comparison to Hallmark movies, because this movie definitely fits the Hallmark stereotype, even though it’s produced by Netflix, hence the attempt at diversity (hello menorah in the hospital and random gay folks and PoC)
The Not So Good:
- Why did he get the fireplace started that probably hasn’t been cleaned in forever
- How was that piano sounding so good? Mum was a hoarder and I assure you that piano hasn’t been professionally tuned in what? 20 years? Yeah, there’s no way that piano still played a single straight note
- I cannot officially criticise the stereotypes/clichés in a Netflix Hallmark movies, but if I could: goddamnit, they really shoved a lot of those down their viewer’s throats (white shirt in the rain, impromptu jam session, woman choosing the wrong guy, lonely writer, suddenly being alone at a public event, only one bedroom left, father and son reconnecting in an awkward manner, dude randomly showing up at her house and looking up at the window, and so on)
- Dude really needs a leash for his dog
- Why did Dude and father leave Rachel waiting in the cold car for so long? And how did they survive sleeping in a cold af car?
- Who messed up Barrett’s hair and outfits in the second half of the movie?! Choices were made and they were not good choices, at all
The Bad:
- His weird stalking when she accidentally left the connecting door of their hotel rooms ajar. Seriously, wtf
- Dude looking for/meeting up with Rachel’s biological mother?! That looked a lot like overstepping boundaries, what was he trying to achieve anyway?
- We see him meeting her bio mum but not her?! Which makes this extra strange
- I don’t want to make assumptions here, but I feel like the bio mum was miscast looks wise (not acting wise, the acting was great) and I have a thought or two about the process
- Dude showing up at her house on christmas day/eve, despite fucking knowing that she’s still engaged. It might have been cute if she had been single, but she wasn’t. What was he trying to achieve there? Yeah, she cheated on her fiance and they were obviously trying to reconcile, but even if she chose the safe option over the “being happy” option, it wasn’t his place to insert himself into their relationship like that. That’s not cool, guys (gender neutral), so please don’t ever do that. Write a letter, for what it’s worth, but don’t basically stalk an engaged person
- The final parts seemed rushed, mostly because they spent too much time fulfilling clichés, but I wasn’t expecting a cinematic masterpiece anyway
In Conclusion:
It’s a Hallmark movie, only it is not because it’s produced by Netflix. But don’t be fooled, it’s still very much a Hallmark movie. Watch it if you generally like Hallmark movies but are fed up with the overall whiteness and lack of diversity of Hallmark movies. Or watch it if you generally hate Hallmark movies but are willing to watch some kitsch for the holidays (or any other day of the year). Don’t expect too much plot wise but other than that it does have it’s sweet/cute/funny moments and Barrett’s performance is a solid 9/10, but that’s due to the fact that no one can genuinely portray that many clichés without it looking a little, well, cliché. Overall it’s an easy watch and despite hating Christmas and Hallmark movies (I know, I know), I did not have a terrible time watching this, so that probably speaks for itself

Is it just me that dont feel like Noel is gay and has any gay vibes. Like what is gay vibes anyway but like yeah maybe he is BI but thats his buisness. I do feel like cameron passes me more as a Gay or Bi man then Noel does but yeah idk.
I think noel and L are still going strong, they were pictured just like 2 weeks ago togheter at like a huntingtons disease event. But anyway eighter way, even if i dont like them as like a couple, if he makes her happy then i am happy.
Yeah sexuality is pretty complicated but there was rumors before about him going to gay clubs and making out with men if im not wrong and kinda it fits he looks like the type of person who doesn’t give a fuck what your gender is just cares about what you make him feel
yeah but also we get pics pf them far away from each other and also they stopped posting each other and didn’t do any anniversaries this year idk it doesn’t look that good for them maybe they stopped using sm sure but they didn’t use it before and still posted about their anniversary and their travels or meet ups and events the last time he posted her were months ago when it was his birthday and that was it nothing in stories or posts
we don’t know nothing about them personally we’re not their friends or even close to them in anyway most of us are in different countries 🤡 but it is fun to gossip and talk about our opinions when it comes to other people I personally like it idk about yall

Opinions on each of the choir members @ St. Cassian?
I do not like Ocean. I think Constance and Ricky are cool. Misha is a friend of sorts. I'm on a neutral to negative grounds with Noel. -🎢 I hate all of them. They're trash. They're icky. -🧷🌹
Couldn’t care less. We beat them in everything anyways. Although, I would like to know a little more about that Gruber one. The so-called, “most romantic boy in town”. I could have sworn that would be me. - 💛🥀
That Noel kid is.. something else. He saw me with my camera out and immediately struck a pose. It would’ve a good photo but I wasn’t even photographing him.. Right. Uh.. not a fan of Ocean, I’m chill with Constance, Misha’s fine, Ricky is pretty cool, and.. uh, I think that’s it? - 📸 I get along pretty well with Noel, Misha, and Constance! I haven't interacted with Penny too much but I plan to! Ocean is..Okay. -🥊🖤
I’ve met Ocean, I don’t think she likes me. Bit of a sore loser as well. Constance is sweet, she’s probably my favourite out of them. I know Noel is that worker at Taco Bell who’s always getting screamed at by his manager, poor guy. I’ve seen Misha around, he’s a little intimidating but I don’t dislike him. Ricky seems nice, we just don’t have very many opportunities to communicate. I can’t remember that new girl for the life of me, she just has a very forgettable face, y’know? - ⭐️🧠
I actually hate that little ginger bitch. And the gay one too, he paints his nails for fucks’ sake! That rapper guy is embarrassing himself. And God, don’t even get me started on that Potts kid.. Connie is nice, though. I think she’s sweet… - 💬

Jess Watches // Mon 25 Mar // Day 180 Synopses & Favourite Scenes & Poll
The Newsreader (with mum) 2x01 Decision 87
It's one year on and Helen and Dale are now established as 'The Golden Couple of News'. It's Election Night 1987 - Hawke vs Howard. Competitor Geoff Walters is also making a comeback on a rival network.
The rampant sexism and expected submissiveness of women throughout was infuriating, but it makes very compelling tv. I just want to protect Helen and Noels from all the misogynist aresholes. I hope Dale and Robbo prove their love and loyalty to them.
The Patient (with mum) 1x03 Issues
Sam's desire to find a therapeutic solution grows as his inner struggle intensifies. Dr. Strauss brings a new variable into their sessions.
Why can't women sing at Jewish weddings? She had a lovely voice. And using Sam's mum to try and get him to stop murdering people would be an effective method on me because I'd do anything to help protect my mum. Not that I'd ever need a serial killer intervention. Not yet anyway. 👀🔪
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (rw) 3x15 Consequences
A homicide detective closes in on Buffy and Faith as he investigates the deputy mayor's death.
The gay goggles were ON this ep:
Buffy having a dream about Faith pushing her head down.
Cordelia bristling at Buffy calling her just a 'friend'.
Faith touching B's shoulder to guide her out of the library into an empty classroom in which they lock the door to talk.
"I know what you're feeling because I'm feeling it, too."
Them telling different stories about their night in Faith's apartment.
Buffy crying to Willow that Faith doesn't even care about what happened between them.
Buffy fumbling over her words as she comes out to Giles.
Buffy not wanting to hear how Xander slept with Faith.
Faith using Xander as a substitute for Buffy.
"Yeah, because you and me are such solid buds, right?"
"You can't handle watching me living my own way, having a blast, because it tempts you! You know it could be you!"
The heavy breathing and prolonged staring after Faith saves B's life.
Six Feet Under (rw) 2x01 In the Game
A drug-addicted actress dies from a cocaine overdose and leaves her fellow cast and crew members to set up the funeral.
Ruth trying to communicate better with her gay and lesbian (looks at Claire 👀) children is so endearing. She really is trying her best. And I knew it was only a matter of time before Nate unknowingly took the hidden ecstasy pill from the aspirin bottle. He was so tactile with everyone around him. To get to talk to his dad again and see Life and Death fuck nasty was a lot to process. For him and for me.
