Thoughts on the new ted lasso episode?????? I have so many conflicting opinions re: zava
well first of all this is how i enjoyed it:
i will be repeating the experience weekly. cannot more highly recommend cosymode ted lasso.
as for the episode itself- [shrieks into my hands] i'm gonna put some thoughts under a cut, both generally and re: zava specifically, thank you for asking. these thoughts are not going to be at all organized and mostly composed in run-on sentences i am so sorry.
IM ALSO.... CONFLICTED ON ZAVA I THINK though it's interesting bc as i was watching the episode i kept getting like, OUTRAGEOUSLY distracted by..... [checks notes] not knowing what his first name is. this is not a joke. it was ACTIVELY distracting for me. i kept telling myself sometimes people are like this. like cher. you don't need to know his first name. and then two minutes later someone would mention him again and i'd be like What Is The Man's Fucking Name Though. it was so bizarre lmaooo.
honestly re: the man himself i'm like!! idk!!! jamie is clearly already way in his feelings about this and i can only imagine it's going to get worse which is gonna be. fucking delicious if we actually get to spend some time with and unpack it because 'i feel like i'm being replaced and i'm getting anxious/upset/lashing out about it' is one of my favourite sources of Angst Plots. we shall see. i am as always a combination of hopeful and anxious.
the dude playing him really did a great job striking a very specific and identifiable vibe for someone who had like Three Lines of dialogue and whose face we saw clearly like once.
i feel like i have two diverging paths in front of me with this guy's arc and it's either gonna be 'i'm riveted and having a great time' or 'please get this dude out of my face' and no in-between
and now for some general thoughts:
didn't realize this was the chelsea episode and somehow still had 'chelsea dagger' on repeat while cleaning up and getting ready to go cosymode. (i am stealing that song from its association with the chicago hockey team. it whips too hard to be left to them.) enjoyed the accidental reference when i turned on the tv and saw the title. also kept remembering a couple irl friends who are chelsea fans and having myself a giggle.
speaking of 'great time' vs 'get this out of my face' how relieved am i that they've now bait-and-switched me TWICE with fucking. love triangle bullshit. with roy and keeley and jamie. when he followed roy and not keeley i was like. oh thank fuck. the ensuing scene was both very sweet and very funny. they are welcome to continue bait and switching me on this as long as the switch Continues To Happen but if this goes in a Direction i am not gonna be thrilled.
something is brewing with keeley's company. it's not gonna....... go well, i think. something is gonna come to a head there, i got the feeling from the drop, and i'm not sure what or how yet but something's gonna give with that. all those scenes have this weird like. tension to them that i can't quite put my finger on and im intrigued to see where it goes.
i actually really like the CFO woman? she seems like a very interesting character and i think she and keeley could balance each other very well.
my jamie and dani besties agenda is flourishing. so is dani's hair. it's fantastic and i want to braid it.
oh speaking of hair back to zava for a second. beard pulled up the footage of him and i literally said out loud, pronouncing the letters not the word 'motherfucker': "oh this mf has my haircut"
AND SPEAKING OF DANI when he said "fuck off trent crimm" i think i shriek-laughed so hard the whole block heard me. dani my fucking beloved. i adore you.
y'know who else had a good episode here? isaac. his body language thing was so good. it made me laugh and also was a SPECTACULAR look into him as a person. every time we get a scrap of characterization on one of the secondary richmond player characters i dance around like the soot sprites with the candies in that ghibli movie i can't recall the title of off the dome.
i probably overblow this in my head, right, because everyone thinks their own perspective is like Super Unique or something but i really do think being an enormous irl sports fan is enhancing the experience i'm having with this show so much. watching the fans unfurl that banner for roy and cheer for him like that was like... immediately a half dozen welcome back tribute videos and player homecomings i've watched raced through my head and i was literally in actual physical tears. both bc of what was happening on screen and bc of All The Rest Of That in my head.
speaking of. oh my gd my heart hurt so much for roy as soon as he pulled that fucking. newspaper clipping from his wallet. i liked that he ripped it up at the end but i do wish it had come a little harder. he's been carrying that thing around for 20 years i'd have liked to see a biiiiit more of a battle over letting it go. still. holy shit and the bit at the end? about leaving chelsea? winded me. WINDED ME.
to be honest this was a rough one for him all around. i cannot imagine everyone i know making my breakup front page news in THEIR life too. which is like- they mean well and it's obviously coming from a good place and the people talking to him directly - jamie, ted, etc - are like. trying to be kind and supportive but if i were him i'd want to run away and also die in a hole about it so. big #felt that whole thing. even so, i do also have to say-
the roy's hyperbolic violence/threats thing is Back With A Vengeance! we know how i feel about this. i had a whole post about how i feel about this. it's a Bit, i know, it's a goof, this being a comedy show and roy being The Angry One but still i just. i feel like they take it a liiiiiittle past the pale in this ep, in general and also with jamie specifically. roy flying at him in the locker room during the big 'who's on first' round robin was a Bit Much for me - and i know i harp on this a lot but i maintain my stance here - given their history to this point. ted saying to roy near the end of the episode that like, he needed to get his act together or he'd be ruining more than one match was a good touch that did a lot to defuse some of my unease with this running thread but. it was still there and i was still a little [oh boy.gif] about it.
anyway so now i'm knee-deep in a fic about That.
overall it was spectacular, i really enjoyed it. knocked out of the park episode thank you so much.
i have many more discrete thoughts but i have to clip it here my keyboard is starting to lag lmaoooo

Charles made 2 mistakes in 12 races and yet he's saying that if he loses the wdc it's all his fault and he doesn't deserve to win. After Ferrari messed up 5 RACES for him.
Honestly I'm starting to think that something really bad is going on behind the scenes. First Binotto won't put a drivers hierarchy in place, then all the reliability issues and the strategy mistakes and Charles saying "who am I to ask Ferrari for a clarification?" and now this comment
I'm starting to think that yes, Charles is very self critical and lacks confidence... But the team is doing nothing to help him. I actually think they're doing the opposite. Instead of taking responsibility for the reliability and strategy mistakes, they tell Charles it's all his fault if he loses the wdc. Instead of making Charles the #1 driver and helping him, they tell him he's not good enough and he's nothing compared to Ferrari... even though he's their best driver and a generational talent.
Charles is actually quite smart, so it's concerning that he can't see that Ferrari ruined 5 races for him, and if he loses the wdc it's not his fault
The only explanation is that the team is telling him shit and making him feel like he's the only one to blame
No wonder he said he feels like he's fighting alone
hey anon.
i kinda agree with u on some levels. i don't think the team is telling him shit. binotto statement today was finally i wanted him to say since a long time. he said that he doesn't agree with charles that if he loses the championship is his fault bc they made some mistakes too and he's driving like a champion. after that finger point in silverstone this was refreshing to hear. ofc it could be only for the cameras but yk i don't think it is otherwise he's more stupid than i thought.
when they say is his fault if he loses the championship? i don't recall them say anything like that. could u help me in these sense. and if they do they're really a shit show. charles is the only one that can bring them to the victory, no one else will. so saying that would be really kill themselves in public eye.
charles made two mistakes in twelve races they bottled five races to him. people know this and we saw how the public replied to silverstone shit show. i don't think they can afford something like that again.
charles said something very important during an interview and u have to read between the lines to fully get it, but he said that at the end of the year we will know and if he loses for 32 points then we would know whose fault was that. what he really meant is that if he loses for those points it's his fault referring to his mistakes but if he loses for more it's really not. it was thin but it was there.
honestly anon let's see. we really don't know what happens behind doors. ofc they're always gonna put a beautiful facade on but sometimes u can see through their lies. and let's see if they're really gonna do some hierarchy after the summer break, i personally don't think they will but yk.
have a good whatever time is in your country anon 💕

Stranger Things beach headcanons, for my new friend @willthecleric who didn't ask for this and idk if we are even friends but they reminded me how much I love writing headcanons!
Ships
Elmax - if max could pick el up, she would, but since she can't (or can she ??) she settles for holding el in a tight grip and trying to drag her into the waves. El is screaming (the good kind) and max is laughing and everyone else is laughing too, and eventually Dustin helps max pick el up and dump her into the water. Then he also pushes max in. ALSO max tries to teach el to boogie board
Dustin/Suzy - these cuties like go exploring and looking for things in the sand and tidepools and when they do find something they bring it back to show the others and talk facts about it, before they then release it back into it's habitat. Also they bring the snacks.
Mileven - mike lets el bury him in the sand because it makes her giggle and smile and oh so happy. Then he buries her and they turn her into a sand mermaid
Byler - our cute boys are calm and cool, they like just sit in the sand and bury their feet and sit super close together bc duh, love (I hope y'all agree with this one, I'm super new to byler so I don't quite have their dynamic figured out yet)
Lumax - you know these two are the ones who terrorize the beach, they like to run around and throw sand at each other (but then the others yell at them for getting sand in the food and bags and everyone's hair), so then they go into the water and have a splash fight and also try to dunk each other under the water. They bring the toys and other beach equipment like buckets and shovels and whatnot. Also totally trying to learn to surf together
Friendships
El/Will - these two build the most kickass awesome sandcastles, you know it's true, and sometimes they'll find a little tiny sandcrab that made it's way inside and they gently pick it up and put it down somewhere else so it doesn't get squished or anything
Mike/Max - these two get into a sandcastle competition with the above two, but they can't decide how to best build or what to build so they just end up arguing
The whole party - beach sports, duh. Volleyball, soccer, also sometimes chicken in the waves but the waves usually knock them over before the others can. BUT sometimes just the boys will play the beach sports and the girls will sit in the sand and watch and talk about/laugh at the boys
Teens
Steve - he's basically one of the kids, he plays beach sports with them but he's pretty good so the party fights over whose team he will be on. He is also a good babysitter who doesn't let things get too out of hand (well he tries to anyway, but most of the time ends up just yelling at them while they do stuff), sometimes he tries to help with sandcastles but he's not super great at it
Nancy - she builds sandcastles with them, but she also likes to sit and read under the umbrella or just watch
Jonathan - he also helps with sandcastles, sometimes he and Nancy will build one together, or sit and read together. Honestly Jonathan would rather just prepare the food and everyone let's him bc damn he makes good food (remember that one time he made breakfast?) Also he likes to sit and draw. ALSO he is in charge of the music.
The teens sometimes like to do beach sports by themselves but stancy will tease Jonathan (all in good fun and he knows that) bc they are better at that stuff than he is
Did I forget anything???
Please feel free to add this or just reblog it or talk to me about it, I love headcanons and discussions! 😄❤️
#stranger things#poly party#my headcanons#ships#friendships#elmax#lumax#byler#byeler#mileven#will/el#mike/max#dustin/suzy#will byers#mike wheeler#el hopper#max mayfield#lucas sinclair#dustin henderson#steve harrington#nancy wheeler#jancy#stancy#headcanons#willthecleric#also in honor of summer starting! ☀️

hi it's me with the rarepairs
sunahina: do you wanna date
(post time skip content)
* just about kills me with the sweetness
* hinata brightens up every room and suna is blinded.
* the first time msby plays against raijin is the first time suna actually sees hinata in person after high school.
* like; when atsumu talks about hinata and when he sends suna team photos suna always just dismisses it (as he usually does with everything atsumu says) as atsumu's little crush.
* he can't deny that the little orange hair kid is cute, i mean he was cute before already and the tan does look flattering on him, but honestly suna thinks hinata is too much energy and too bouncy
* basically anyone who atsumu likes, in suna's opinion, is much too overwhelming and annoying (okay, hinata isn't the latter, but he's probably really energetic and that is annoying in and of itself, suna reasons)
* back to the story
* suna surprises himself on the day of the game by coming in for practice early. tbh he just wanted to avoid everyone and take a nap in the shower rooms. for some reason, komori was extra excited every time they play msby. even washio seemed peppy.
* he didn't know which shower rooms were assigned to each team yet, so he just entered the nearest one
* and then came face to face with a meditating hinata.
* he blinks twice. huh, suna thinks. didn't think him to be the sort who can stay still.
* suna turns to head to the lockers when he realises that oh. this could be msby's locker rooms and not ejp. he turns to leave but hinata has some sort of sixth sense to open his eyes and look up and spot him just... staring at hinata
* and then this huge smile just breaks across hinata's face and suna is like
* that's bright. he just stares
* hinata cocks his head and speaks. "you are suna... rintarou right? i'm hinata shoyo!" *beams*
* and suna is just. fucked bc wow what an adorable voice this sunshine child cannot be real
* he just. cannot do anything other than stare blankly at hinata.
* "u-uh yeah. how did you know my name?"
* "oh, atsumu san talks about you all the time! he always talks about how you're such a great middle blocker! and you were really good when we played against you at nationals! i was so jealous of your skills as a middle blocker! did you grow taller? ....(hinata rambles)"
* suna just. poker faces and doesn't know what to do for a moment.
* "thanks i guess. is this msby's locker room"
* "oh i don't know whose it is, i just came in the nearest one! maybe we can wait outside! do you wanna warm up together?" cue another blinding, beaming smile.
* suna curses. no wonder atsumu is smitten. no wonder komori and washio can't wait to play against msby. who could say no to this face? who could turn away from this smile? no wonder someone like sakusa can put up with the likes of bokuto and atsumu, if it meant seeing this view every day.
* no wonder osamu smiles like he knows a secret, and travels across the country for an msby game. this, suna muses, is one part comedy gold, one part top tier blackmail material. half the vleague, enraptured at the sight of one(1) small player who shines brighter than anyone else just by breathing.
* and suna curses again, because he knows, and he knows without a shadow of doubt, that in every way, he is just as captivated as the rest of them when hinata says, in that lovely, angelic voice, "suna-san, are you alright? you went really quiet for a bit... do you not want to practice?"
* and suna snaps out of it immediately because there is no forgivable reason to make that voice sound that concerned, and also hell will freeze over before he gives up the chance to practice with hinata.
* before he can reply, sakusa opens the door.
* "ah hi sakusa-san! here for your pre-game routine? do you need help?"
* "... this is msby's locker room." ah. one sentence and suna knows he is unwelcome.
* "sorry. i didn't know. i'll take my leave."
* suna turns away, but before he has a chance to take a step, hinata calls out to him.
* "suna-san! let's catch up later during warmups!"
* suna freezes. he doesn't need to turn around to feel the brightness of the smile behind him. "ah yeah... sure." he hopes he sounds warmer than his body language shows, because if he were to look at hinata he cannot be sure that he can remain coherent.
* (he also doesn't need to turn around to feel the weight of the scowl sakusa has on him.)
* after the teams come in, msby manages to keep hinata so occupied that suna doesn't get a chance to speak with him until the end of the game.
* it's not like he could speak if those smiles were trained on him from the start tho. suna is relieved, and also a little jealous. he's not the only one, komori and washio also seem to be glancing that way a lot.
* after the game hinata gets swept up in a lot of fanfare ("the darling of the vleague! hinata shouyou!~" fans line up for signatures, photos, fellow players try to catch a few words with him about the game.) suna has no chance. he refuses to wade into the throng.
* instead he takes his time to wash up, pack, and generally just loiter. he feels something (annoyance?) when washio and komori chat with hinata outside the locker rooms. he pretends to have forgot something and goes back inside to stare at the walls. maybe send osamu a meme and some blackmail material to get back at atsumu for winning.
* he's about to give up waiting when he suddenly hears a voice calling in the empty corridor outside the players' locker rooms - and who can mistake that voice?
* he tries not to look eager as he turns around.
* "did you wait for me, suna-san? that's so nice of you! i finally got away from everyone, they didn't let me have any spare time to talk to you during warmups so i wanted to catch you after the game!"
* "i uh. yeah. you're very popular." suna smacks himself internally. way to go, so much for being the witty one in the team -
* "i - um - if you don't mind, do you want to wait a little more for me to wash up? we can get a meal after, i'm famished! ... is that... okay?"
* long, fluttering eyelashes. the perfect amount of hesitance. a criminally cute tone. here lies suna, deceased by three sentences and a shy face. the answer spills out before suna can process what hinata was asking for. "yeah sure. take your time."
* he hangs around in the corridor, scrolling through his phone aimlessly and fidgeting with the edge of his shirt. he looks at his shirt - clean, training gear, he'd packed whatever he could reach earlier today in a haze of sleepiness. he hopes he doesn't look too shabby.
* glancing through his instagram feed, which is suddenly filled with an unfair amount of hinata's bright smile painted over sweaty, flushed skin he realises its a lost cause to try and look, well not shabby beside hinata because... everyone sees hinata first. and who can compare
* suna is just scrolling and so amazed that everyone actually left him alone with hinata (he doesn't need to know that hinata asked them all to go home, although suna does come to that conclusion later on after everything and he is like... how did hinata know. did hinata also want to see me? omg did he notice i like him does he like me cue the overthinking spiral)
* anyway they have a nice meal at a small izakaya near the stadium
* suna is repeatedly just wowed by how much energy hinata has that he can talk and smile so much after a gruelling game and he's surprised at himself for actually being interested in whatever the sun has to say. it helps that a lot of it is gossip on atsumu. the inarizaki chat is going to be spammed later, and suna is looking forward to that too.
* he asks for hinata's number when hinata shows him an embarrassing video of drunk atsumu after a game. good, suna thinks. it sounded natural, send me the video, yes and also i get your number heh (he doesn't notice the soft flush at the tips of hinata's ears.)
* anyway after a couple weeks of texting each other somehow atsumu figures it out and suna is pissed bc he doesn't need a wingman. not one like atsumu anyway, who is too much of a coward to even confess and pretends he doesn't want a chance
* but at this point everyone can see hinata likes suna. so atsumu just goes straight to hinata and says, "when are u gonna date suna"
* and hinata is like RED "wha-what do you mean date him i just think he is very kind and nice to me and i like to hang out with him-" and bokuto is like, "do u think he is hot" and hinata is more than a tomato at this point and sakusa is disgusted at the gleeful expressions on bokkun and tsumu's faces. "just ask him out. he likes you too, obviously." sakusa, back at it with the straight talk. (he gave up on hinata a long time ago, after all, it's hinata's decision and who is he to decide or change hinata's mind)
* and so hinata is like, agonising over it
* and the next time he meets up with suna he is shy af. and suna is like tf did atsumu do did ratsumu say something mean to u
* "he didn't do anything! he just. um. hejustsaidweshoulddateandbokutosansaidulikedmeandsakusasansaidishouldaskyououtbutidontknowhowufeelaboutitsoidontknow-"
* hinata. breathe
* anyway suna cuts him off and is all like. "1. yes i like u. 2. yes i wanna go out with you 3. do u wanna go out with me"
* (inside he is like woah. woohoo. nice.)
* and hinata is like Y E S
* and there u go story of sunahina getting tgt
*******
when i was typing this my phone kept autocorrecting sunahina to sunshine and honestly? it is not wrong
this was actually meant to b like, what does sunahina relationship look like, but... i don't write the fics/hcs k i just start them and they write themselves
i'll write those out another time i guess
masterlist here (。•̀ᴗ-)✧

Ep. 1: "There's 100% going to be a Canada alliance." - Amy
Amy
Initial reaction of cast reveal: I’m toast But for real this can go a couple of ways for me, none of which have me seeing myself make merge lol. I’m either going to be a very early boot here or be nice and active enough to solidify a place for a while. Lots of familiar and unfamiliar faces. Hopefully the people familiar with me won’t want to immediately vote me out. I have already mentioned to Derrick that I played with DeNara before, so hopefully we can bond over that and it not be used against me. I have explicitly asked Jared to not exclusively lie to me this go haha but we both said we were more playing for the other half of our duos and just agreed to do it. I was excited to see Blue on my tribe and I also know Leanne, and have already had a good chat with Klied - but his name does have “lie” in it 👀. Honestly I want to do a quick portion of divide and conquer, I planned on chilling in a pool tomorrow and going to drag bingo with Ava. But no one has solidly chosen anything so they are really about to force me to be tribe leader and sort this out. Things I look forward to: vibes, chatting with cool people, meeting people, twists, and drama Things I will not be doing: sitting on hours and hours of video calls. Not my style. But I know several people in this game love it. Let the good times roll y’all
Kenneth
HERE WE GO AGAIN! i'm fresh off of ingary, but jay has magic powers and pulled me in to another season of a potential clown fiesta <3 but seriously, this already seems a lot more enticing and spicy because of the theme in itself and how the challenges and idol hunt are structured so i am very excited to play :) i learned a lot about my last game and i will improve on it (hopefully) by taking more risks and plays that WILL be appreciated by the jury, and not be overly attached to people, which would result to tunnel vision. the first challenges are already pretty great, and i cannot wait to play this game. TO WIN! hehe >:)destiny i’m super confused about a lot of stuff tbh but everyone on my tribe is so nice and welcoming and i’m sure i’ll get the hang of it all soon :) i’m excited to be playing and just hoping i don’t screw things up for my tribe :/
AmyThis tribe is exhausting. Challenges where I need to send a photo back quickly really hate me. My phone took like a minute to actually send the photo, but Waldo went well. Except I started in the bottom right looking with vertical transects and Waldo was hiding in the bottom left 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ Woulda been 30 seconds had I started over there. But I’m already expecting tribal so I’m just hoping I wasn’t the worst portion of our challenges haha!
Leanne
Not very much to share so far. Some people on this tribe are much bigger talkers than others, Jared, Derrick, Klied, and Amy. It’s been harder to get Convo from Jesse and Blue, and I’ve barely heard from Josh or Aubree. I wonder if other people have had the same experience. Haven’t dared try game talk with anyone yet. Hoping I’m not behind, but it’s only day 2 right? Maybe I’ll try to put some feelers out with Amy. Maybe I’ll tell her about some things in the idol hunt and see if she’ll give me anything in return, maybe try to get a partnership going. I’m glad she’s on my tribe, but also a little bit scared because I’ve seen exactly how good she is. Aside from that, the person I feel best about right now is Derrick. We’ve had some good chats and seem to connect well. Hope he feels the same way. And Moth. I’m especially nervous about them. When we played before we didn’t exactly hit it off, but I think we’re both… trying. I hope we can have a new start this time, a new story. And from what I know of them they are a very loyal allies so, here’s hoping. Also happy to see Sarah here, and my yinzer JG. Maybe he and my dad can bond over that? And that’s all I’ve got so far. God I hope I did enough in the challenge today. *whines* I don’t wanna go to tribal first!
Jared
Don't mind me making a confessional before the game even starts, call me a game changer. https://youtu.be/JFOxzamkcH8
Jared
Not one, but two, confessionals before the game even begins. Sorry not sorry! https://youtu.be/SETx-0LoI9E
Shawn
Well, things are going good so far! I think anyway. Although I like everyone on my team, I do have to say it's odd playing with someone whose older than my father is, Frank. Usually I like to take charge in games like this, I like to be the leader. Yet, with Frank, it's difficult because he's so much older, I feel like I'm a little kid around him. I don't wanna tell him what to do, because I don't wanna be disrespectful? I'm so excited so far though, absolutely loving the challenge and how we get to pick! Im not that bright so I'm happy I can do creative stuff.
Aubree
This is my first BvW confession! Idk about the other tribe, but the Mysa Tribe is super chill. Most of the conversations yesterday consisted of everyone saying hi and that they were busy and would be active later. Day 2 and the activity level is still the same, which is kind of a relief since I am much more of an introvert. I have been trying to be the first to reach out to people since I feel that is something I have struggled with in past ORGs I’ve played in. I’m usually the reserved/silently-strategic player, but I’m going to try and be more proactive for this game. Ive talked to Klied, Jared, Amy and Leanne a decent amount and have enjoyed our conversations. I know of Amy due to the games she has played with Sarah, so I am hoping that works in my favor. Amy did say that Sarah voted her out in the first game they played in, so that could work one of two ways for my game… like if it came down to a vote between me or Sarah later on?? but maybe it is too soon to think that far ahead? Lol Even though I’m an Art Teacher I chose to steer away from the Creative part to our first challenge. Tbh I’m so burnt out irl when it comes to being creative due to my job, so I’m okay with taking a step back from the creative challenges for now. I’ve enjoyed being a part of the Scavenger Hunt, even though it was a bit harder than expected. I was so stoked to have a Starry Night print, but since it wasn’t real it didn’t count… Like who the heck has a REAL VAN GOGH?? (Or quick access to one) LOL As much as I would LOVEEE to have an original painting, that teacher salary-bracket doesn’t allow for that!! Lol I haven’t had anyone directly ask to me to be in an alliance with them… so that is - interesting? I’m used to the last two games I played where it felt like everything was very paced. Now, It’s either A) everyone is just chillin’ and not wanting to rush things or B) bonds HAVE already started to form but I’m not a part of them? I guess things will spend up more after the first challenge is over and we see where our strengths and weaknesses are in the tribe. Until then! - Aubree
Moth
Hi!! I’m back again and playing with someone I know. I actually happen to be on call with Destiny as I type this but like- were vibing And also once again I’m starting off on the wrong foot, not at home when the game starts.
Moth
I don’t trust Jared Straight up And I feel like that’s fair- Twice I’ve been voted out for my connections to Kyoshi island and it’s really fucking frustrating- Jared apologized and sounded sincere but idk I trust people too easily.. Brayden, Denara, and Leanne are also all in this game All people I’ve played with Leanne I don’t trust right off the bat. I tried that before but like- that didn’t work for me. I just want to at least make it to the merge
Frank
Having fun, learning as I get going. Truly impressed by the comraderi among people whom I've never met. Old dogs, new tricks, this is cool.
Klied
The game is going pretty well so far! Everyone has been really nice and supportive of one another. I hope this tribe dynamic continues for the next rounds of the game! :>
Moth
I fucked it up I genuinely feel really bad because everyone’s so confident in me- And I’m totally going to be a target now
Moth
Ohhhhh thank god Thank god because I was absolutely going to be on the chopping block if we lost I don’t want to be first out That being said
I don’t want Destiny to be first out either
Shawn
I'm not very happy tonight with how things went. I truly believe the other team deserved the win, the video was creative and a lot of effort was put into it! I think it was a great thing. But I disappointed that we lost so many of the challenges. I'm also getting annoyed that people are being present on the chat. I feel like it's me and another tribe member that is putting in all the work. Not impressed, but whatever. I just really hope I don't get voted off tomorrow.
Kenneth
welp i bombed the where's waldo challenge and my team lost by a hair in the riddles challenge because of an advantage so rip. i really hope i don't get voted off first because i severely underperformed in the challenge akjdnsajkndkjsnd i'd be really disappointed in myself :/
Amy
Shocked. Absolutely shocked we aren't headed to tribal lol. And here I thought my 4 minutes on Waldo was too slow but it was enough. Honestly we are lucky Blue's quit disadvantage was only what it was bc they quit after 30 minutes apparently. All these advantages at play! And I'm sitting here with a disadvantage. I think I'm clearly doing the idol hunt wrong 😆 all I have is a disadvantage from poison feast food and a chipmunk named Wadsworth in my pocket. Based on how little anyone is speaking I was certain we'd be going to tribal hands down no question. So I am very, very happy we avoided it in the end. I think it would have been between Jessie and Josh though bc they aren't active. I would have voted Jessie bc Josh did the video even after saying he didn't actually want to do the creative part so that's major props to him in my book! I am very curious as to who the other tribe is going to vote off in the end. I hope it's no one I want to make it far. Oh basically I know I'm probably not making merge so I'm trying to align things to get certain people farther and get other people out. I'm rooting for a newbie to take it. Anyway woo day off and I won't be first boot. Fingers crossed it's not Ava. I wouldn't be surprised if she was targeted for her association with me. Love this game! Love this cast! Love the idol hunt! The reward challenge was the most fun bc Ava and I were incredibly intoxicated after Drag Bingo and we did better each time! The last one we went "office" and "turnip" and literally bust out laughing and both said "Nate". I would like to personally apologize to Ellie for having to witness that nonsense. Thank you to everyone! Oh one last thing. I did not want to work with jared at all but it looks like I am going to be forced to do so. I think I have to put trust in Jared and in Leanne who has voted me out of two games prior 😆 but that's me always just bonding most with the people who are active and want to talk to me.
Amy
There's 100% going to be a Canada alliance.
Aubree
Who won the first challenge?? MYSA DID! Woot woot! Even though Jared, Jessie and I didn’t win the Scavenger Hunt portion after the advantages were added in - we did win as far as how many total objects were found, so I’m pretty proud about that! To top it off Sarah and I won the Reward Challenge!!!! We both get 3 stat points to add to our Idol Hunt… which I have yet to do… I should probably do that tomorrow O_o
Avat
hings are going well i think!!! i've had a lot of fun and i sorta vibe with everyone so far on the tribe. i'm really hyped and fingers crossed we do well. i've been sorta inactive with my challenge bc of work but i'm doing what i can for now. more to come soon
DeNara
Well this is my first confessional of the game and oh my is this going to be an interesting game. Initial impressions of my tribe...... Sarah +Jodi- frenemies because they are so good at survivor Frank- I really like him. He seems like a cool dude Kenneth- Seems cool, I may want to work with him, but he seems to be playing harder than he should so early Brayden- Didn't get the best first impression, but that could change Shawn- Super quiet, then they started chatting so that helped Ava, J.G., Destiny- Really inactive so I don't really know- potential first vote I want to work with Sarah, Frank and maybe Kenneth. Jodi would be good to work with although who knows what she is thinking. Everyone else I will stay open to working with, but really don't care too much as of yet.
DeNara
The first challenge was weird because everyone just took their roles and stopped talking. I HATE QUIET. Period. The creative challenge on my tribe wasn't super creative imo, but they tried. I didn't help in the scavenger hunt as much as I wanted too so that sucks, but at least we won that part so that looks good. I am so excited for this idol hunt! It is amazing! Props to the hosts! WE LOST, DAMMIT. At least Derrick won't be the first boot. I hope I am not either or HE WILL NOT STOP BUGGING ME ABOUT IT AND I WILL DIE.
DeNara
Well it is chaos now. Shawn has made an alliance with Sarah, Kenneth, and myself. I like the safety of that. Jodi, Sarah and myself also made a Subrosa alliance (we all knew that would happen) and I feel like this will keep me safe for a while at least. Both Sarah and Jodi want to work with Brayden and potentially Kenneth so we may make an alliance of 5 with them- but that also means Sarah and I would have to talk to Kenneth about not telling Jodi about the other alliance and that could be very risky early on.... hmmm idk about that. Also, Frank is my dude. I hope he stays. I think I am going to lean towards J.G. or Destiny.
Sarah

Kenneth
I am now in 2 alliances: one with denara, sarah, and shawn, and another one with ava and brayden! i feel good about both alliances, with the first one feeling solid and loyal (for now), and the second one for the long term! i feel very solid about sarah and denara, i feel like i can last long with them as my good allies. jodi's a tricky one, because i know she's a damn good player, but it's better to keep her on my side for now until an opportune time to make a move (and i actually really like talking to her!).
Jared
me: i'm gonna try to make this concise also me: 8 minutes on the very first episode where i'm not even going to tribal oh boy
Brayden
https://youtu.be/reALs2hizjk hey everyone I'm here
DeNara
So now I am in a bunch of alliances. I guided Kenneth to make an alliance chat with Sarah and me to tell us to keep our alliances with 1. Shawn and 2. Brayden and Jodi a secret. Insert evil laugh here lol. So all together right now I should have Sarah, Jodi, Kenneth, Brayden, Shawn and Frank backing me, so I shouldn't be first boot. It sounds like we are going for Destiny because they aren't very active, which was the name Kenneth threw out first so he is getting what he wants without upsetting me.
Ava
so so so bummed about going to tribal i thought we had it in the bag especially with our advantages but alas... i formed an alliance with brayden and kenneth which i'm super obsessed with i really like both of them - hopefully this means safety for tomorrow. i hate working two jobs and the week after next ill be working just one which is just so fucking sweet fingers crossed i can make it that long in this game. anyway that's all for now
Jodi
I'm so happy to be back. This time, I promise to play a chill Jodi game as I said in my intro, and I want to relax and enjoy this twist of a season. Jared and I are thrilled to play our second season together in the actual format of BvW, and we will be playing our own games. So far, I'm glad to have Denara, Sarah, Brayden on my tribe, as we all know each other but never played before (except Brayden). I want to keep an open mind and play fluidly. Kenneth told Brayden within 10 mins of the game starting that he was scared of me, but I hope I can gain the trust of people and not play as flashy as people remember me for. Looking forward to the connections I make!
Jodi
I promised y'all a chill Jodi game and here i am, delivering it. I think. DeNara and Sarah immediately made the "The Best of SubRosa" chat because obviously that was bound to happen, but additionally, the 3 of us are in an alliance with Brayden and Kenneth called "the clock" (because of our time zones ahahahaha). This game's dynamic is so different because even though we hate going to tribal, it also means that our loved ones are safe from tribal, which sometimes, could be better. I hope Jared is doing good on the other side. Obviously I trust Sarah and DeNara but I also know Sarah will cut my throat when it needs to happen, even if she gonna be crying while doing it, so I'll just...not be blinded by that. I trust Brayden 100%, Kenneth calling me scary is not great but I guess he rather be with me than against me, for now. Y'all Ingary kids what did you say about me??? LMAOO ♥️ I did ask him why he didn't cause ruckus at 5 and whip out the superidol and he said "tunnel vision". Hey that's two of us I guess!
Sarah
https://youtu.be/RzlLHyHZguQJessie So I’m still working on making like connections and stuff but we won the first challenge so no tribal which is a very good thing . ❤️ I’m enjoying this interactive scavenger hunt and I’m totally not trying to pull a Danni from Midsommar lol.
Brayden
hey guys im in a 5 person alliance rn with jodi sarah denara and kenneth and i feel pretty good and excited bc i think ill win this whole game but sadly destiny is prob leaving tonight <\3
Derrick
First challenge done. We rocked it! I don't really have any sort of alliance at this point but I seem to be getting along with everyone. Josh didn't seem to put too much effort into our creative set up but it still worked out OK. It was unfortunate I was on my trip at the time as I could have done so much more with. I think as long as we support eachother we can rock every challenge that comes our way!joshIM SOO HAPPY WE WON! our tribe seems to be like friendly but i havent made any alliances i think so idk if im in a good spot if we lose a challenge but we didnt this time so🙃ShawnEveryone in the tribe is messaging about Destiny, and that is who everyone is thinking of voting off. I'm still thinking of voting Frank off, and I think that's who I'm going for. He's not good at technology, and this whole game is about technology! We lost the creative challenge because all we could do with him was write! Still, everyone thinks because Destiny isn't very active she should be the one to go. I'm not sure what I want to do. JGOh hey! Here we are round one. I feel so out of it playing this game. For the first time in a while, I barely know any of the other players. Which is refreshing and tough. I also feel like my social game is kind of lacking but that is kind of my brand for round 1. I have had some great one on one conversations with DeNara, Jodi, and Sarah. I've talked to Brayden and Kenneth as well a little bit less than the first three. Shawn and Ava, barely. Frank and Destiny not at all. The vote should be Destiny since we sadly lost. Which works for me. I feel the closest with DeNara and Sarah. Really hoping I can start to get my footing. If we were to lose again, Frank would probably go but I don't wanna put myself in the line of fire again. Well here's hoping things improve. Hopefully, I'm not blindsided. Here we go.blueMy tribe seems pretty cool so far, everyone is nice and seems pretty active so thats nice. Shawns going to tribal so I hope theyre gonna be safe :(((DeNara As far as I know, the vote is going to be Destiny. I feel bad for them for not getting the chance to play, and I feel really bad for Moth, they always have the worst luck in ORGs. That being said I sure hope nothing crazy happens tonight or I will cry 100% Tribal, here I come...AubreeThere is hardly any game talk (at least from where I’m standing), so I may start trying to get a feel of where people are at by asking some game-related questions in the tribe chat. Don’t get me wrong, I love the personal chit-chats… BUT I’m also feeling a bit empty-handed as far as knowing everyone’s game motives. Maybe I’m being too bold… idk. I’m not normally the one to standout in ORGs, so hopefully my tribe doesn’t take this as me prying… even though I guess I kinda am?? 😬 “Oof look at me being all dangerous and shit!” 😤🤘🏼😂blueSO here are more detailed thoughts on my tribe. Amy of course is a queen and a legend and we've played together before and have a good rapport. Leanne is so kind and so funny, and I would be super down for working with her. Jared is SO nice I get really good vibes and really enjoy talking to him. Aubree is also very nice and seems genuinely interested in my irrelevant stories 10/10 good vibes. Moth is dope as expected and turns out we have a lot of the same interests ie. witcher and the mcelroys very fun. The rest are yet to be determined.AmyI would like to start out by saying that Brayden's video during their tribal almost made me seasick thanks buddy. So today was a DAY. It was a day off and like I had a weird day at work lol 😆 and then I remembered there was the task of talking to people who h i slacked on today whoops sorry. But for half these people idk if they even noticed bc my tribe is so quiet. Did I already say I tried asking Jessie what their favorite berry was? Like that's how exhausting conversation has been most all around. I think I'm talking to Leanne, Derrick, and Jared the most. I am begging for bygones to be bygones. But anyway I was trying to do a little of the hunt throughout the day bc after seeing
all those advantages last go I was SHOCKED. Then at the end of work I made it to thevpart where I was talking to the grumpy sad flower crown man and after falling on my weak ass on a ladder I picked the lock with a bobbypin and charisma's him to make me a flower crown which got me to the maypole which had me do a scavenger hunt and I got an idol. Writing this all out is absolutely hilarious. But yeah I have an idolllllllllllllllllllll which I don't want to use anytime soon. But I have a feeling I'm going to struggle to make merge. Anyway I got this idol like directly after the other tribe finishing tribal and I love a funny timing like that. I'm glad Ava survived weee! And wow they have some very vocal tribe members haha I'm sure Denara and Jodi are working together which tracks bc I've been closest to both of them individually in prior games early on. Curious if it will stick. So next was rock paper scissors for which I have a 10% disadvantage which apparently applies to the overall tribe score ☠️ . I won my game against Brayden who was at seemingly a raging Big Brother watch party. Sorry buddy. But we've been chatting like he asked how josh was and I said Josh is great and really stepped up to the plate for the creative challenge even though it wasn't what he wanted and also he loves tom holland so I instantly trust him. Then he said everyone likes ava bc she's just so cool and yes I get it I am personally intimidated by how cool Ava is and I have to be around that cool level every day honestly I don't know why she talks to me but she's a badass. Anyyywayyyy he doesn't seem keen on actually talking game and I need to figure out if I need to just tell my tribe I have a disadvantage rn or be like what the fuck the other tribe is so mean to give me a disadvantage 😭 Anyway excited to explore the hunt some more and this game is so fun. If we go to tribal I think Jessie is most at risk tbh. Okay that's all bye ❤️

[ID: a comment from Tumblr user aggiehufflepuff that reads "Zukka is not my ship but oh my god I need to hear more about your Avatar Librarians AU". End ID]
@aggiehufflepuff thank you so much for asking. i offer you: word vomit under the cut bc i don't know how to organize my thoughts
okay so basically, after the previous Librarian (probably kyoshi) retired, sokka and katara both get invites to be the Librarian, but neither tells the other about it. sokka goes to the Library and Katara doesn't bc "she's not all that interested in books and stuff". Aang and Toph also get invites to the Library as potential Librarians, but neither one of them show up either. Aang, Toph, and Katara were actually the Library's preferred choices for Librarian, but since they didn't show up, Sokka got the job (since the Library's physical manifestation is wan shi tong, i wanted to keep that uhhhh very obvious dislike of sokka there)
so sokka becomes librarian, and suki ends up as his guardian. i haven't watched the movies yet so my info here is a bit sparse, but basically suki and sokka fall in love, and then suki ends up having to sacrifice herself and sokka (and everyone else, really) assume she's dead. i think maybe Yangchen would be a Charlene/Judson type person? though i don't know who she would be partnered with
sokka isn't Librarian for near as long as flynn before he meets zuko, who's probably on some sort of secret mission for ozai while sokka happens to coincidentally be on secret librarian business in the same place at the same time. then, of course, after zuko returns home, he gets an invite to the library to be sokka's guardian, and they end up having to track down katara, aang, and toph once they realize the three of them are in danger.
zhao would be dulaque, but unlike yue - whose immortality comes from her bond to the moon spirit - his is due to an elixir of some sort. so they've known each other for centuries, used to be at least respectful towards each other bc they had to be, but then stuff went down and they became sworn enemies. present day zhao teams up with ozai and enlists azula, mai, and ty lee to help with his cause.
then obviously there's three other seasons of possibility. i could use avatar wan in place of shakespeare, though i'm not sure who prospero and moriarty would be. obviously Chaos would be Vaatu and i could probably find a way to bring Raava in somehow,, Yangchen would eventually move on, leaving sokka and zuko to tether to the library. suki would come back, reveal she's not dead, maybe do a little bit of betraying people's trust but eventually get a redemption arc and fall in love with yue. katara and aang would get together at some point even though none of the LiTs canonically date each other bc. kataang. i'm not sure if bending is a thing in this universe or not tbh but if it were, aang would just be an airbender instead of being the avatar.
toph would obviously be ezekiel bc they're both chaotic, have slightly questionable morals, are exceptionally smart despite the fact that that's not what people would think of them, and they're also both aspec bc i say so :) which leaves katara and aang as cassie and jake, though i'm not sure either of those characters makes a ton of sense for katara or aang? i could definitely see aang being more like jake in regards to his love for art history, but katara is more like jake in terms of being ready and willing to physically beat someone up. neither katara nor aang are particularly into math like cassie, and obviously neither of them have the sort of synesthesia she does, but i can see both of them being pretty into the magic aspect of the Library. so i'm still figuring that out sjgfhjkhjg honestly i'd probably change who is which character on an episode-to-episode basis. and even toph would probably end up doing some of the things jake and cassie do while aang and katara end up doing some of the things ezekiel does? idk i'd have to outline each episode individually and then outline each season arc skdhgjfhj
i'd also probably want to find a way to bring mai, ty lee, and azula back beyond just the first season bc i love them a lot
anyway this is an absolute mess bc i'm still figuring out a lot of the logistics and also i have rewatched the show in quite a while but,, i just think there's a lot of potential for an atla librarians au
do you ever come up with an au so specific to your interests you know no one else would be interested in it, and you also know you probably couldn't write it anyway, but you still can't stop thinking about it? yeah anyway atla x the librarians au
#but then also. on a more zukka note#zuko just impulsively kissing sokka after they haven't even known each other that long#and sokka's brain short circuiting bc CUTE BOY KISSED ME WHAT DO I DO#like i love zuko being flustered after every kiss as much as the next person#but nerdy librarian SOKKA getting super flustered like flynn does after every time eve kisses him?#BEAUTIFUL SHOW-STOPPING SENSATIONAL#and like...... katara as cassie in the fairytale episode?? where she becomes prince charming??#YEAH#that would SLAP#and the episode with cindy and ezekiel not falling victim to her spell?#ARO TOPH BABEY#(also the real reason ezekiel didn't fall under the spell is bc he's demi. i'm right and i know it.)#anyway#i have a great many thoughts abt this and none of them are coherent sorry#hello grace here#atla librarians au#grace's writing tag
