omg if u have time can i get some darvey fic recs plz 🤓
RAHHHH YES OFC!!!! you have likely read these already but here goes, I tried to give some variety and didn't include ones I know you've already recced to me LOL. Also I am still drafting an answer to your previous ask. I want it to be worth the wait💞💞
Worthy by justanotheranonymouswriter on ao3
It's the ultimate au where Harvey ends up going to prison instead of Mike, and it truly has some of the most touching and genuine and romantic descriptions of Donna and Harvey's relationship that I've ever seen.
a series of fortunate events by evialivea on ao3
OOOH BITCH. literally heaven. just fluff and earnest relationship building. inspired something im writing rn, but this is totally my shit because it is just a piece about Harvey making the effort to consciously show Donna he's ready. Set during early season 8, which is PRIME darvey time.
Notes in the Margins by abvj on ao3
My first favorite darvey fic. Literally just so real and acts of service for days!!! It's Donna and Harvey at their best - by each other's side with unflinching loyalty and no demands to be anything more than they already are, which is partners.
Double Date by Pegtastic on ao3
Okay this one just cracked me the fuck up. I read it THIS MORNING at like five am before going to work and it just started my day off with some silliness and a little healthy secondhand embarrassment. It's the Paula/Harvey/Donna/Thomas overlap and consequent throwdown that we all wanted just a little.
you still look like a movie, you still sound like a song by hellcsweetie on ao3
This fic is in angst JAIL but it's still so beautiful. I've been learning that these angsty AUs are sometimes worthwhile even despite the temporary pain because I love getting to watch Donna and Harvey re-fall in love, and this author just does it beautifully. Gets bonus points because I ADORE the Adele song that the title lyric is from.
All love to you and to these authors. I hope you're having a beautiful day!!💞💞💞

thoughts on LIS: Double Exposure?
This is probably gonna be my hottest take in awhile, but: I deeply dislike the idea of an official LiS1 direct sequel game existing. Excluding all my thoughts on the gameplay, story, Max's character, etc. I don't think a game like Double Exposure is necessary.
This isn't a new take either; back in 2020 I made a Reddit post saying I was glad we never got a continuation of Max and Chloe's story, because in order to have a plot, you have to have conflict. And to have conflict means your characters are forced to change or struggle in some way, and I simply wasn't interested in seeing that again. I never even read the comics. As long as Max and Chloe's future existed only in the fanbase's collective imagination and not in an officially licensed game, Pricefield could be as happy as I wanted and I wouldn't have to witness DN or D9's version of canon.
A lot of fans, including myself, are also confused and upset as to where Chloe could be in Double Exposure. Even if Chloe winds up having a surprise role, it would likely be too logistically difficult to write Chloe into one version of the story and not the other. Either way, DE is strongly pointing to Chloe no longer being the deuteragonist. If D9 was going to make a direct sequel with Max and Chloe, I could at least be intrigued by how they might write their dynamic and how they'd use Max's power in new and interesting ways. But instead there's... none of that. Chloe's nowhere to be seen and Max can't time travel anymore.
On a narrative level, Max and Chloe are the heart of the original Life is Strange. They represent the game's central relationship, and their very first interaction (Max saving Chloe's life) kicks off the entire story. Throughout the story, their dynamic advances the plot and mutually motivates their character arcs. You can't have LiS1 without either Max or Chloe; the story simply wouldn't exist without them. Now in DE, they don't even seem to be in each other's lives anymore. It's true, this series is meant to reflect universal feelings and experiences, which could include breakups, but the romantic catharsis of Pricefield as canon soulmates who defied time and space itself to stay together forever is something you can only get from the beauty of fiction. To jab DE's story with a dose of reality and go, "Eh, they grew apart. Shit happens," totally undermines everything the Bae ending stood for.
On a technical level, Max's rewind was an objectively brilliant game mechanic. LiS1 arrived onto the scene after Telltale had paved the way for the resurgence of choice-based, episodic games, but LiS1 totally reinvented the wheel by giving the player the option to go back and weigh each option before continuing, essentially save-scumming in-game. But the right choice was never that easy to determine, and Rewind brilliantly complemented Max's character arc of overcoming her indecision and learning to live with her choices. Not to mention, you could also use Rewind to solve puzzles, instead of the endless fetch quests the later games had. No other LiS game since then has given the player that kind of agency and interactivity. LiS2 had telekinesis, but the player couldn't use it, only Daniel. D9 tried with Backtalk and Empathy, but Max's Rewind was truly the narrative and gameplay jackpot that they haven't been able to recreate since.
So if you take away one half of the central relationship that made the first game so memorable, and the supernatural power/game mechanic that made it so fun to play... why even bring Max back at all? It just feels like D9 threw away their golden opportunity to build upon the major selling points of the first game and are only relying on name recognition of the Life is Strange "brand" and Max Caulfield.
What upsets me most of all about a direct sequel existing is that it proves that Life is Strange, as a series, now stands more for profits than originality. Life is Strange will always be an IP meant to make money for Square, I know that, but back when LiS1 was just a brand new episodic game, it stood out for how different it dared to be. In a landscape saturated with shooters, sexualized female characters, and casual misogyny, LiS1 instead featured a teenage girl in a contemporary setting that took her seriously and made her the hero of her story. Before it was a franchise, LiS wasn't concerned with the bottom dollar; it was a piece of art that just wanted to tell a thoughtful, unique story.
Whether you love it or hate it, Life is Strange 2 was an insanely risky follow-up to Life is Strange that refused to rely on the convenience of a direct sequel because Dontnod stuck to their artistic vision. Meanwhile, all of Deck Nine's games have leaned on the first game's following to generate interest (BtS being a direct prequel, TC bringing back Steph, and Wavelengths expanding on Steph's connection to Chloe, Rachel, and Arcadia Bay). In other words, all of the subsequent LiS games by D9 have played it very, very safe. It's worked like a damn charm because there are still elements I love about each game, but the basic principle is nostalgia-baiting fans. It's just that now, Double Exposure isn't hiding that nostalgia bait at all anymore and prioritizing profits over telling a unique story. It's sad to see that LiS has strayed so far from its risky, daring, original, and unique artistic beginnings.
Before I end, I'll say that I can't be too cynical about it all, nor do I want to be. Because I can't deny how much joy this whole series has brought me, too. LiS was what got me into narrative adventure games and pushed the boundaries of what a video game could be. If nothing else, I am truly thrilled that Hannah Telle got the chance to play Max again. D9's always been great at maintaining relationships with their actors, and the casts of their games always have consistently great chemistry. Getting recognized by Erika Mori on my own blog is still unbelievable and speaks to the amazing community that LiS has built. As you can see, I'm still posting and reblogging stuff about Double Exposure. And while I don't see myself buying or playing this game for myself, I know it'll keep all of us talking for awhile, and I still live for a good discussion.
Thank you for asking! And thank you for reading.

Lila: Alright, now go up to Marinette and follow the plan, just like we went over.
Chloe: Fine. I hope you know what you're doing.
-later-
-Chloe bursts out of the classroom-
Chloe, covered in lipstick marks: You did NOT mention this part of the plan!!
Lila, filing her nails: That sounds like a you problem.

What if Chloe had lost her memories of her old life after making the wish in Chloe's Lament? If so, would she remotely be nicer given not being rich means her father has less reason to spoil her? Or would she still be mean anyway even with her memories gone, implying she may just be born evil?
Yes but also no? It's a bit complicated so please let me explain:
If Chloe's Lament didn't happen and Chloe was the Chloe of the reality in question, things would pretty much be the same way they are for her in the Lament. The difference would be how Chloe herself handles it since she's fully aware of her position in this life going in without any memories from an alternate self getting in the way.
Andre is still Andre. He is a pushover and loves his little girl. He WANTS to give her whatever she wants, so it's not that he has less reason to spoil her and more that he simply CAN'T, at least not to the extent she wants. Think to the setup in canon where he was able to buy Chloe a golden bracelet and a diamond-filled phone case, fire Roger when he upset Chloe, arrange the closure of an ice rink to build a gym for her, and shut down Clara's music video on her demand...but ended up in an outright panic when he told Chloe that he couldn't banish Marinette and her family from the city, something he legitimately could not do. Not for lack of wanting to. Just that he can't.
That's pretty much the position he'll be in here. He loves Chloe and he WANTS to give her her every desire, but he's not rich or powerful this go around and he has no weight to throw, no money to spend, no influence to use, and no status or backing to protect himself or Chloe from the repercussions of her antics.
But this ask isn't about him, I know. I'm just trying to give perspective here.
Andre would still spoil her...at least as much as he could. And you have to bear in mind that he is trying to make up Chloe's lack of a present mother while also running a functional and decently well off but not outstanding business. He would deny her things she wants because he can't give her everything she wants.
But the Chloe of this world would know that. And since she never had the wealth and power that Canon Chloe has, she wouldn't expect all the things that Canon Chloe did when waking up in her position.
This is actually what makes the primary difference. I have said before that it is fully possible for the characters who make the Wish to end up happy in their Lament, and while I'm sure many of you doubt me or think I only apply that to Marinette, I meant it for everyone.
See, the main thing that makes this a Lament isn't the position of the Chloe in this world but in how Chloe HANDLES it. Canon Chloe is going to try and handle it like Canon Chloe handles anything, and it's going to fail because her expectations are based in a setup that she cannot understand no longer applies and her go-to methods require resources and protections that she doesn't have here.
THIS Chloe is going to handle it differently. Her expectations are already more down to earth than Canon Chloe to begin with. And by the time the events of the story start, she's going in with the knowledge that she is on thin ice and some change needs to occur if she doesn't want to lose everything she has left.
Chloe by this point is the bastard child of "Style Queen Audrey" and is just as acknowledged by her as she was in canon if not less, so she's still dealing with abandonment issues while trying to endear herself to her mother however limitedly she can. She still has Adrien as a friend but knows that's hanging on by a thread as well (her friendship with him was mostly through Andre's friendship with Emilie and she's gone now, and Gabriel himself is not that impressed with her). She has Bustier's support and is still able to go to the school, but she's on probation with the administration watching her. And her father is working desperately to get her out of consequences for her previous behaviors. So if she messes up again, she's going to lose all of that.
So yes, in that sense, this Chloe is going to be "nicer". She has to be. She is trying to change her behavior in order to avoid a bad situation. To try being "kind" and "helpful" when she's still very much a selfish and angsty teenager who doesn't get why she should. "Nice" and "Good" are two different things, after all. Though that's not to say that she'll be very good at either.
This change in behavior is difficult for her. Change usually is. But practice makes perfect, right? So that's why Chloe starts trying to do things she normally wouldn't. Like helping her father in the bakery. Planning a box of goodies for her classmates to try and make peace for the next school year.
And yes, help out an old man on the street.
However, there's another aspect to consider here.
After all, in this universe, Chloe and Adrien are childhood friends. And Adrien and Marinette are childhood friends, too.
So wouldn't it stand to reason that Chloe and Marinette were also childhood friends as well?
...
...
IF I wrote this setup as its own story sans the Wish and Lament, we'd be dealing with a story of Chloe growing out of a negative mindset, addressing her inner fears that drive her actions, and improving her life and her relationships. All while dealing with the stress and responsibility of being a hero. And just the clash overall of the difference between who she is as Chloe vs who she is as the Ladybug Hero.
As Marinette in Canon pointed out, "Ladybug has made me a better Marinette. So, perhaps being Queen Bee will make her a better Chloé, too!"
That's what happens here.
Chloe KNOWS she's not a good person. She'd even convinced that a mistake was made when she was chosen. But being a hero lets her do good more easily under a mask where no one has preconceived feelings or expectations of her. It would be freeing in a way. And give her the positive reinforcement she needs.
But the biggest issue would be dealing with her toxic mindset and how it led to her situation and strained relationships. Which would be what the course of the story is meant to address. Chloe in this world doesn't understand what "healthy" or "healthy relationships" are anymore than Canon Chloe does. But she's getting a crash course in the matter while also receiving guidance courtesy of Tikki.
Ultimately, this Chloe would have more of a chance than Canon Chloe.
She wouldn't go into this looking to take advantage and cause harm the way that Canon Chloe did.
She would be a selfish teenager learning to be a little less self centered and a little more aware of her impact on others.

why's the queer community so fat phobic 😭😭
i KNOWWWWWWWWWWW why is being a skinny waif your whole identity and why is it interlinked with your view of gender and sexuality and why do you think being fat is the worst most disgusting thing a person can be and why do you alienate anyone who isn't below a size 10 in both subtle and overt ways when you interact with other lgbt people. like what would happen to your sense of self if they took "putting being thin on a pedestal" away from you

can i get ur take on this scene plz
THE WAY THAT SHE SAYS SHE DIDN'T FEEL ANYTHING BECAUSE SHE THINKS IT WILL BE THE QUICKEST WAY TO A RESOLUTUON BETWEEN THEM ONLY FOR HER TO BE GAGGED BY HIM SAYING HE DID FEEL SOMETHING.... OH LORD!!!!!!!!!!
im also fucking pilled on "our lines have been perfectly clear for a long time"/"our lines are as blurry as lines can get" because it reminds me SOOOO MUCH of "because we have everything!"/"no, harvey, YOU have everything!!!!" like it just shows once again how clowned he is to be settled into the partnership they have because it's as close as they can get without being closer, while she's been looking at their dynamic for what it is, which is unrealistically intimate and always teetering on something, while harvey is delulu. they've literally gone through this so many times ("i want more," "love me how," etc) and harvey still doesn't get it lmao!!!!!!!
aaron korsh show me those 6am and midnight darvey phonecalls challenge (level: impossible)
"as far as im concerned, your judgement sucks" no cuz that's really the final nail in the coffin. refusing advice from the one person he's trusted and relied on for OVER A DECADE.... and she feels it........ that stops her in her tracks, because what now??? he's not even willing to listen to her a little bit???? this changes everything. and in a way it almost puts them on some weird leveled playing field, because now harvey is really forced to think for himself, AND WE SEE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT IN 7X13 INEVITABLE WHEN HE BREAKS UP WITH PAULA TO GET DONNA BACK YUPP!!!! IT ALL COMES TOGETHER

Okay, so I noticed a certain detail during a bit of the livestream footage at around 1:41, when Max picks up the picture, it actually shows two different pictures in between cuts. If you look closely, the first picture is not a Polaroid photo and might be the same picture from Life is Strange 2 Episode 5 before it cuts to the Polaroid photo. That being said, we might get different photos and dialogue, with Chloe being referenced as the green-haired girl.
I went back to check and holy shit, you spotted an incredible find!
I found a Reddit thread on the same topic, and u/Mazzus_Did_That sketched out this rough silhouette from the zoomed in photo:
This could possibly be D9's version of Max and Chloe's ~2017 selfie in Away, but just pure speculation at this point! Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

Hey could you do some headcanons with Adrien haveing a twin sister or younger sister by a year?
Oh, buddy, I am perhaps the worst person to ask! Let's use Eloise for the sister's name.
- Adrien and Eloise have an incredibly, unsettlingly codependent relationship. The emotional neglect led to the siblings fulfilling way more of each other's emotional needs than they probably should have.
- Adrien was Emilie's favorite because Emilie is a boy mom. Gabriel did not have a favorite because that would require caring about the kids in general.
- Gabriel will start to get weird about Eloise in a way that he is not about Adrien, simply because she resembles Emilie more due to the virtue of not having a Y chromosome. YMMV on what I mean by "weird", but I definitely feel like she would get sheltered/kept inside even more than Adrien is. This is definitely a big change for Eloise compared to before Emilie's death, where Adrien was the one given more attention in general.
- Both are fairly academically inclined due to all of that homeschooling, but Eloise is probably put into ballet when Adrien is put into fencing. (Not to say she can't also like fencing, I just think the Agreste parents aren't immune to following gender roles)
- Both are also forced to model, often together. They tend to disassociate in sync, it's a neat party trick! Any commercials/Disney Channel Originals/etc they're in tend to rely hard on the twin/sibling factor.
- I could definitely see a sort of Lyney/Lynette dynamic from them (if you're vaguely familiar with Genshin)
- Adrien is definitely exposed to more physical abuse than Eloise, while Eloise's is usually non-physical. Of course, Adrien has the usual brotherly sense of "I never want my sibling to go through what I've gone through", so he puts up with a lot under the pretense that it will protect Eloise.
- ^ He is wrong.
#i'm surprised you went to me. hopefully you didn't want cute/fluffy headcanons?#sorry i only deal in pain and suffering xP#also curious as to why those HCs specifically. is it a self-insert thing? no judgement if so#personally chloe has always felt very much like the best candidate for adrien's sister to me#with the caveat of her 'romantic' feelings to adrien just being a mistake on her part. she just cares about him in general#anyway i tried to be light on emotional incest HCs but those who know me know that would definitely be a factor in this fucked up family to#cw child abuse mention#wissym answers

I just realized something about Chloé Lament, Chloé is essentially an background/side character who thinks their the main character, like she’s the main character in the fic, but in the term of the altered show, she an side character
Kind of worse if you think about it. Chloe went from a somewhat relevant but antagonistic character to an even less relevant and wannabe antagonistic character.
She started off as a main bully who becomes a "hero" before turning into a villain. Now she's stuck as a former bully desperately trying to stay relevant.
In this case, Chloe knows in a sense she has lost whatever relevance she had. Her money and her status were the main things, of course, but those were luxuries that made her life easy. There is also the matter of her relationship to Marinette. Previously, she could appease herself with the knowledge that she was richer and had more power than Marinette, and that she could make her life hell whenever she wanted with no repercussions. This is especially important given the reveal of Marinette as Ladybug. Realizing you had this power over your former hero? Perfect for revenge AND for ego.
But now Marinette isn't Ladybug. And Chloe has nothing she can use to harm her. Even worse, Marinette has no reason to even care about Chloe anymore.
To really put it in perspective: Chloe was a Draco Malfoy and now she's a Dudley Dursley.
