i know i am so late to the party but someone pointed out that it’s canon that the mayor reads out the names of previous victors before each reaping and i just can’t stop thinking about that. like i really love the idea (in a tragic way) of everyone knowing lucy gray’s name without the story attached, especially since we know her art ended up having such a big impact on the country without a lot of ppl in the original trilogy even knowing it
#sorry i know this has prob been discussed to death before#but i was not on tumblr + back in the fandom until after ballad came out#like i know snow said he wanted to erase lucy gray + gaul hated how the tenth games turned out#but to me it would be even more suspicious that they’d just be like “lucy gray? never heard of her…���#meanwhile ppl in the capitol are like “what the fuck are u talking abt? we literally all met her”#and then keeping at least her name alive in the districts was prob just chill#bc even if they are ppl in the trilogy who are old enough to remember her they don’t know anything abt her games played out#since they didn’t have to watch it#ok rant over#lucy gray baird#edit i’m reading this back and i’m sorry i sound like a ten year old with a monocle rn#but i had forgotten abt that detail in the trilogy so now im just thinking abt katniss hearing lucy grays name every year#and that just being something that doesn’t evoke any emotion#even tho lucy gray was the ceo of evoking emotion when she was present in the narrative

Ms. Spooky, may you spare some HC for the terrible trio (YES, I have named stu, Billy, and us that. What about it???) for us? 🙇🙇🙇
Abso fucking lutely!! I'm just going with this story since a total hc of everyone for all 3 installments feels too broad.
Headcanon's for the Trio for Terrible Trilogy Specifically:
GPS just came out for cars in 01 when this series took place and your Honda definitely didn't have it so you all rely on MapQuest printed out or a good old fashioned map.
Billy is an excellent map reader. If you get lost, give him the map and he will find whatever beaten down road he can to get you all on the right track.
Stu is a landmark guy. Landmarks and directions like 'straight, left, right' sort of thing. Maps are too all over the place for him while Billy's brain cannot remember directions without a visual aid to show him wtf you're talking about. If you lose the map then rely on Stu. "Nope, wrong way." "How do you get that?" "Because it was left, right, left, then that giant rock over there near the road so you made a wrong turn because we should have passed that rock by now."
Stu is a bottomless pit. He has a oral fixation where he has to chew on something and is prone to bored binge eating if you let him. Get that boy snacks and cinnamon gum or he's freaking grumpy enough to rival Billy the whole trip.
Stu was brought up from money and was expected to pursue business like his Dad but always was a "I don't have a dream job who the fuck wants to work?" sort of guy (Same). That's why he's okay with swindling, job hoping or pursuing such a risky job as acting bc he could care less about a career even if he wasn't on the run. Billy on the otherhand was more than willing to have a career as a lawyer to make his Dad proud until this happened.
Your anxious about all of this. Even without the murder, you've been alone isolating for roughly 3 years now just to be thrown into a bustling Hollywood set. (Seriously I relate bc my social skills sucked pre pandemic and now after quarantine; talking to ppl in public feels like pulling teeth oml)
You updated your wardrobe as you got older because you liked how you looked at the party at Windsor. You just didn't have much opportunity to wear leather pants or a lace camisole off your property until now.
Randy went through severe depression when he woke up from his coma and had to have assistance walking the first few months. You and his family comforted him and tried to be there for him but he was still majorly depressed at how his life turned out. He started working out to make it easier along with physical therapy and kept it up as a lifestyle change from then on.
Randy and you went on casual dates here and there after Randy recovered. He rejected it at first thinking you were only doing it out of pity. Both of you soon tried to consider going steady but realized you were better off as friends. It brought you both closer though in a platonic way.
You still wear Sidney's locket when you can.
Dewey and Gale dated and it was hard on Dewey with how much you both dislike one another. He tried to purposely push you two together but gave up when Gale made a remark and it turned into a huge argument there after. Dewey partially blames Gale's hostility towards you, someone he views as a little sister, as part of the reasoning of their break up.
You all argue over the radio. Billy is strictly rock, grunge and heavy metal music (He does like some country and pop but if you found out he'd have to kill you) Stu likes punk rock, nu metal and pop punk but he can just as well jam to rnb, hip hop or pop. He's not nearly as much of a music snob as Billy tries to be.
Billy definitely likes the dark hair on Stu but won't admit it and Stu likes the leather trench coat Billy wore but...Yeah. They're stubborn assholes.
You have ONE pair of sunglasses in your console you all fight over. You remind them the driver gets first dibs and everyone else has to suck it up. (Stu bought some cartoonish dollar tree sunglasses Billy refuses to wear)
Stu has seen all the Stabs, you refuse for obvious reasons and Billy only saw the first one and turned it off when he saw how they portrayed his defeat at the climax. He bitches about the awful wig they gave his actor
Billy is secretly super stoked to see where all his favorite Horror movies took place and how they were made no matter how much he acts like he's not interested. Him and Randy are more alike than they both want to admit as far as interest go.

Story idea for obi wan but ANGST (no i do not have time to actually write this... Too many other unfinished fics. Anyone can take this as long as i can read it when ur done) also warning for obi wan not wanting to exist - as is erased from timeline/narrative. Everyone proves him wrong.
---
So after original trilogy people (in the afterlife/force. This all happens afterwards) subtly try to start blaming obi wan for not training anakin well enough to not fall. It doesnt really gain traction as it has been a while but the effects are really interesting to see.
Then sequel trilogy happens and then there are more people that try to find where everything went wrong and obi wan is a really good scapegoat. Because its obi wan and angst.
So obi wan is slowly pushed out of the groups and decides that if he was not involved (him not given to jedi, him not being born ect.) Then the world can be more, right? The republic wouldnt have fallen, qui gon could live, anakin wont fall, ect.
So he and the force (no the force doesnt work like that except it does now) have this thing so it is like time travel/'best world'/what if thing.
So the prequels 'start' and even before that as 'normal' but there are people that feel something is missing. Like a child was supposed to be there, a friend, a colleague, a jedi, a random person that you met, know and other stuff but when you turn there is no one there but an impression of red hair, a laugh, some sayings, a swish of a robe/lightsaber.
It goes as canon but obi wan is missing in life and memories - cant miss what you never know right? But the force and others know someone important is missing.
Then the clone wars happen. And clones (212th, 501st, others who met obi wan) and everyone is starting to notice a huge presence missing. Bc obi wan was a diplomat - then taught anakin while still going to them - and in clone wars was a celebrity, a mascot and high general as well as in charge or at least 1/3rd of the entire GAR (paperwork). Now this is even bigger of being exasperated of the general losing cloaks and his lightsaber and not going to sleep. But that isnt their general. There isnt a flirtatious jedi general with little sense.
So now the galaxy is now aware of what the jedi and few diplomatic mission planets are aware of - someone is supposed to be here yet is not.
Then this is where it gets crazy. Prequels and clone wars (and little rebels) are aware of someone missing.
See... Obi wan thought if everything went wrong bc he was there then it would be better if he wasnt, right? No one would notice if it was a better timeline.
Wrong.
So here it gets handwavey. The ppl from original and sequel (yes rebels at their prime + maybe rogue 1) trilogy all are here to put the missing one back into existence. No it doenst matter about how good or bad the future has gotten - this one important person is missing and needs to be here.
Jedi and others track down feelings and other things about what they know about this missing person with everyone chipping in and getting a picture about them.
Stuff happens and they find obi wan but have to convince him that he needs to exist in the world with them because he is a hole and the galaxy is less without him.
Obi wan is all how did you find me, why and they do not know him in this timeline. But they convince him even with him telling them about his timeline and they are all horrified and angry about how he was treated when they can feel this gaping ache from him missing.
So they gain memories of him and everything is restored. As if he never was gone. Except the few that were really close to him (several jedi (u decide who most likely plo and mace), his lineage, cody and rex, original main cast, sequel main cast) remember what he said as excuses for not existing and fix everything.
Main original and sequel trilogy remember a worse timeline and finding obi wan when they old enough. But the world is better bc of the prequel and clone wars teams taking down everything bad. No order 66, no anakin falling. Ect.
Also decide if obi wan remembers not existing before being put back, is faking not remembering or just doesnt remember until later.
So... Angsty fix it!
#obi wan kenobi#star wars#anakin skywalker#star wars clone wars#star wars prequels#commander cody#jedi#captain rex#star wars original trilogy#star wars sequel trilogy#angst#warning for existence crisis#of obi wan#obi wan erased from timeline#au#sw au#obi wan feels#obi wan erases himself from the narrative#everyone else decides nope#no order 66#anakin does not fall#time travel#time travel fix it#fix it#angst then fluff#fic idea#sw fic ideas#up for adoption#force does not work like that

doctor who...
u really give me my cringe blank cheque with this one, anon anyways limiting this to nuwho bc idk enough abt classic
Favorite character right now im on such a fucking martha kick its absurd i think its like. martha’s potential & how cool she is becomes more and more apparent to me ... it matures with me.... like a fine wine... & the injusstice she is served in the show, and in universe? we hate it; we HATE it. fills with me with an anger Second favorite character since my top faves rotate.... my two second faves right now are bill & donna. donna because she is purely just thriving and the writing serves her brilliantly. however my like for bill is also this mix of: you were done well & i enjoyed your place in the show; however you still have so much more potential; however you are also 100% my type & i had a genuine little crush on bill so we love her
Least favorite character the showrunners.
The character I’m most like this is specific. you know after the fucking monk trilogy in s10 and like its the comedown (probably the final scene? dont even remember) anyways bill & the doctor are like sth sth “does... no one remember this” and some uni student walks by and the doctor is like “WHY DO U THINK THIS STATUE IS THERE, HM?” and the student is like “uhhhh..d’afksdf idk?” WELL IM HER. Favorite pairing okay so. this rlly changes a lot . i dont think im committed to any who ship THAT much bc a lot of the canon ones suuuucccck & the noncanon ones... its too broad a show fo rme tolatch onto any fi that makes sense? the universe uis too ginormous & i know theres some good pairings to be had but its such a sea thttheyre all drops in the ocean but okAY OKAY OKAY
CURRENTLY. ccurrently. i want to stan ot3 jack/rose/doctor because my hearts been singing for s1 recently and i think jakc/doctor could be a powercouple but they need someone to round it out but... ehhehdiASOIdjhsf............ rose/doctor .... always makes me go a little uhhhuhuhuh hghd. because the writers just slapped ages onto ppl without thinking & s1 rose is like... a fucking Child which makes me go “ah. ah no. nonononon.” like she’s younger than ME & remembering tht im like mmmhmmm </3 no. & i do think its genuinely a case of shit idiot brain disease where the writers just put any old age on & then treated the characters a whole different age than what they are (rather than. the genuinely insidduous: this character is younger, lets really emphasise the age difference dynamic!) but its still. makes me too soured to rlly rlly commit even if the dynamic is good
.....oh i will say though. martha&thirteen makes my legs wobble a whole lot. that’s all <33
Least favorite pairing okay okay OKAY theres plenty here i could go into tbh i know there is but if we’re not touchingg on gross ones on principle that theyre a given..... and if we’re talking abt canon-only, like....
eleven/river. first of all. he looks like a baby and honest to god babbuy WHY is he kissing my milf JESUS CHRIST. they had no chemistry 0 chemistry an di will always RESENT moffat for literally all the river execution ... she was so COOL and then you strapped her onto the worst storyline, put her with the doctor she wiuld have the LEAST chemistry with, & on a more controversial and petty note he also attached her to my least fave companion by literal lineage (which again. worst storyo=0sejgdsg im SICK love<3). you have multiple seasons of eleven/river, that made em convincced i just hate doctor/river in general and hated river in general, but then i saw.... the husbands of river song.... & i realised no no no no eleven/river era posioned it all because twelve/river rocks and the dynamic is thriving and that one episode was literally better than all off eleven/river combined, all of s6, on such a magnitute that its even laughable to consider comparing.... the husbands of river song is like unironically one of my fave episodes just bc of how hard that dynamic went & thinking abt how we could have had THAT instead, if moffat had just saved her for later, makes me go APESHIT LIKE SIR. SIR. SIR [EDI9DFGPOJDFGPJODG (STENALGES HIM)
Favorite moment this is so genuinely hard because theres so many hardhitting dw moments. probably the credits when its fucvking over. hate doctor who Rating out of 10 0 this show fucking sucks

Hi I thought of an actual plot for transformers movies and then wrote it down in bullet points because I loathe Bay and all the wasted potential in his movies.
Keep in mind this is just me putting down words at 1AM so
it's a trilogy now i guess
1st movie:
- okay so this thing started entirely bc i wanted to make the trailer w humans and imply that they're important
- scene opens to show that all the trailer bits are a show the autobots are watching in-between battles
- fuck earth we're not going there
- i'm making it a mcfucking SPACE OPERA
- and mashing up bits from everywhere and also mtmte
- 1st movie is autobot-focused
- they're still in a heroic light, show them winning a bit
- war's been going on a while and the decepticons look like they're flagging, unlike the autobots of course
- it's a slog
- what's this about a truce? coded message?
- oh hey tyrest is here
- tyrest says the cons are lying
- maybe subplot megs is on the dark energon again
- blah blah trying to fish for info from unknown sender
- megs suddenly disappears/looks like he's gone into hiding
- autobot council meeting
- tyrest is like "true peace can only be achieved if the decepticon threat is removed" or something
- OP still thinks they can come to an agreement
- lots of ppl are for eradication
- what's this? it's jazz!
- with some pretty damning evidence that tyrest has been lying about details of various truces and ceasefires in the past to both sides
- tyrest secretly keeping the war going on bc he hates cons
- had history of being bribed by the senate
- his entire thing was that big truce he managed to get them to agree to and he's terrified of losing his authority and power if the war ends and that he'll be "reduced" to judging petty crimes
- figure more out later
- idk i just want this one to be all heroic autobots and then showing how they still started from senate enforcers, and that they've also got their fair share of horrifying shit
- at the end after wrap up have the coded message send a signal frequency
- some autobot high commmand members in a room as they tune in
- surprise it's soundwave
- short speech about how they've been going at it for way too long, their population is near extinction, the whole point where it all started has been mostly forgotten/overshadowed by all the death
"We: are tired."
"And what does Megatron have to say about all this?"
"...Megatron: temporarily deposed."
2nd movie
- SUP BINCH DECEPTICON TIME bc they don't get enough love
- 1st movie covered the present war, now we go back in time and get all the juicy cybertron history, leadup to and outbreak of all the shit
- kaon slums w soundwave bc he's my favourite
- gets nabbed by the senate bc of telepathy
- all that delicious political drama
- all the shitty capitalistic bs the senate does
- meets megatron
- soundwave just wants to keep his family together
- soundwave would do anything for that
- include help to incite a rebellion and execute the senate
- the plan is going well (fuck canon they didn't touch six lasers, what even is the POINT, that's just giving the senate more ammo in their propaganda campaign against the cons)
- also gimme that good good soundwave and starscream friendship I want them to be the saltiest mutual bitching coworker friends
- also soundwave and orion and ratchet being friends at this point would be cool too
- also see jazz at the club he gets dragged to bc I’M NOT FORGETTING THE PARTY AMBULANCE THING and they lowkey nerd out about music stuff
- it’s going well
- uh oh soundwave saw/overheard some info he shouldn't have
- welp having a pet telepath was nice but yknow they really don't want this security risk
- THE INSTITUTE FOR YOU
- fuck the institute btw
- also meet shockwave
- hi shockwave
- he's been stuck here for a while, doing their science and trying to mess it up/delay it as much as possible
- he's so, so angry, angry past the point of rage and going straight on to cold
- he's almost on autopilot at this point except for fucking w shit as much as possible
- oh look there's an important con in here
- ...an important con who knows COMMS STUFF
- take shockwave w you when you leave and he'll help
- fuck yeah ping a comm off to the cons
- CAVALRY'S HERE
- CONS BUSTING IN
- WAVES BUSTING OUT
- starscream's here too bc he's chaotic vengeful fucker and they took his friend
- you don't take starscream's anything
- i just really want decepticon high command kicking ass
- afterwards screamer and shocky can bond over science
- also WAVEWAVE ROMANCE
- shockwave has been cold for so, so long, but soundwave makes him feel like he might be able to feel warmth again, one day
- meanwhile sounders is like fUCK i'm GAY and the cassettes are like yea we know this is fuckin HILARIOUS
- also shockwave and ratchet bond over being old grumps who know medical shit
- knockout and breakdown are also there bc I like them
- megs and OP drama happens but like i don't want it to be a focus it's just a thing that happens while the DHC try to keep this rebellion together
- SENATE MURDERTIME
- cybertron starts dividing up
- shit happens
- friends meet for one last time, OP and megs in the bg having their big breakup or whatevs
- lines in the sand are drawn
- TEAR MY HEART OUT FRIEND-TO-ENEMIES SCENE
- they all walk away at the end
- war takes over the planet
- flash forward/catch up to near present
- dark energon, yet another one of megs' increasingly desparate schemes
- we all know what happens w dark energon
- at this rate they'll wipe out the population
- DHC have had enough
- lowkey arguing amongst themselves about what to do, shit gets tense
- they've been doing damage control for megs for some time now (the truce message in movie 1 is their doing, they need time to recover and regroup)
- it's not suspicious to see them talking together real close
- except dark energon so megs is real paranoid
- don't do unicron drug kids
- they have a rep at this point for shadowy sneaky shit
- megs attacks DHC
- they remember how to work together but it's a close thing
- megs is in stasis
- they get their shit together, they're not just in this for themselves, they're responsible for all the cons
- starscream gets his leader on, they discuss terms for a treaty, what to do if the bots accept or reject it, contingency plans
- shockwave is willing to do drastic things to keep megs in stasis and also if things don't pan out
- at the end they're like soundwave you contact them, ur the spymaster but also comms officer
- starscream's rep is what it is, and shockwave couldn't persuade his way out of a paper bag (he could so, /starscream/)
- hyperempathy working for him for once
- starscream, as an aside, almost smirking: "besides, they did like you best, back then"
- make the call
3rd movie:
- TIME FOR MEGA TRUCE NEGOTIATIONS AND DRAMA
- rebuilding?
- well fuck it’s the quintessons
- look we still hate each other but for the sake of there actually being a tomorrow, we have to work together
