#bright julie and the phantoms

[danandfuckingjonlmao]

i’ll never forget that the first time i watched julie and the phantoms, during the last episode after they became corporeal and hugged i just shouted “THEY CAME BACK TO LIFE BECAUSE OF THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP” and immediately burst into tears

Julie and the Phantoms: Choose your favorite song!

Listen to the songs below the cut!

ok but imagine as Julie's standing there awkwardly like "oh no my band disappeared" and somebody just yells out from the back of the gymnasium, "THEY DON'T EVEN GO HERE!"

[maniacace]

it's that time of the year again

[writerownstory]

do we think Luke gave Julie Bright and then told the boys about it or vice versa?

I just really love that the boys seem to be like “oh Julie is gonna use an old Sunset Curve song to get her place back in the music program? cool let’s go support her!!!” it’s very found family of them 🥹🥰

ugh i can't be normal about this con. I'm falling into a void. But something that keeps amazing me is Madison Reyes. I mean, just tell me this isn't a supernova and i know ur lying.

I love her outfit, seeing her dressed like that in the first night blew me away, red and black are terrifying good colors for her and she knows how to play with her silhouette and the accessories, her tulip earrings are so gorgeous, her hair is so well done. She's eating up everybody stealing the scene.

She always got a great sense of style and she can rock so many different scenes, she went so radical with the first look and then the second day, this two piece dress with a tie pattern?? The bracelets, the hair style, i love specifically how her hair is way more black when she wears dark pieces and heavy colors and when it gets lighter if she wears lighter or neutral pieces or when she styles it that way.

here's how fictional band julie and the phantoms going on a real life tour can still win

[willowfae82]

i feel like we don't talk about 'this band is back (Reggie's Jam)' enough.

how did it come about. was it a song they already had written, if so why. like, before they died they were at the 'peak of their careers'; why would they write a song about 'coming/being back' when they were still at the top.

this leads to my headcanon/theory:

they literally made it up on the spot. like they telepathically communicated the whole thing. because they were so in-tune with each other when they were alive that they could do that. it's why Luke looks to Alex and Reggie as much as he does. he's wanting to make sure they're picking up what he's putting down. i mean their instruments were so intrinsically part of them they could be summoned at will. so it stands to reason that they could do this with their thoughts/selves too.

the fact that it's parenthetically called 'Reggie's Jam' will always get me feeling some kind of way.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your five favorite fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers! Spread the self-love. ❤️

This made my day, thank you!

this was. so hard. I have 150 jatp fics ALONE. but i did my best. @joyandthephantoms suggested I narrow them down by making five arbitrary categories that my writing represents and picking one from each so i did that :)

don't get too comfortable (next time you turn around) (favorite Plot Fic)

i'm starting to think i like the sound of you (favorite shipfic, though it could be read platonically, i just love the Relationship of them)

i'll take my heart clean apart (if it helps yours beat) (favorite characterization fic, mostly of ray but i said smart things about rose and bobby too)

we were changed in an instant (favorite sickfic... of many...... i have a brand)

though the whole world seems to rage and scream (favorite language fic)

Thank you for the ask!!

Bonus Honorable mention to my favorite bright sessions fic i've written: please learn from my mistakes (please learn from my mistakes) (the plot and the characterization of mark bryant and the language are all really good imho)

[chillychive]

I feel the need to remind everyone that Reggie's a ghost who can TELEPORT and my guy literally flipped BACKWARD over a beanbag chair instead!

[ginnyrules27]

You know, in terms of background extras, I think this guy deserves a big hug. He sees Julie on the stage, looks at his list (trying to see if she’s supposed to perform probably) and then just goes ‘eh’ and turns the sound up on Julie’s equipment. 

We know the guys haven’t added Julie’s name to the list because they didn’t even know how to pick stuff up yet. So this guy (who I’m calling Ben by the way, he needs a name!) really has no reason to help Julie out and yet does so anyway. 

Ben’s a good bean.

why are all the jatp songs actually SO GOOD?!?!!! like i actually love them so much it makes me very happy

Julie and the Phantoms: Choose your favorite song!

[1mnobodywhoareyou]

these gifsets triggered a new headcanon. I can't remember if anyone's explored this already in fics I've read but...

Luke died with Bright in his pocket. It's too worn to have been pulled from his notebook and that's why Bobby couldn't/didn't steal it.

(also I have QUESTIONS about his notebook)

These lyrics are so juke coded😭

6. Does any of this surprise you?

Uhh The Bright Sessions being so high up on my fandom list was not expected to be honest, I forgot I had written that many to be honest. Also surprised that my most written pairing for JATP is Alex/Willie? I love them so much but honestly I thought I had written other pairings more. (Side note my Rent fixation is lacking, that bitch needs to step it up and actually make me crank out some fics)

I haven't been on tumblr in a bit so I don't know who my writer moots are anymore aaaaa. Anyone feel free to add onto this though!!!
