I’m not sure why, but I was thinking of this scene:
(I guess I don’t really have to have a reason)
and it occurred to me that what we’re looking at is
a white guy
being shot walking in slow motion
with a rap song playing in the background
and not only can we take it seriously, but he’s looking hot/sexy while doing it??? That takes an obscene amount of swagger to pull off.
But even as hot as Austin Butler is, and the amount of swagger he manages to put out - this scene wouldn’t have been nearly as effective if say, they opened the film with it.
WE HAD TO SEE THAT BOY WIGGLE FIRST.
#Baz was a genius is what I’m saying#he knew he had to hypnotize us with the pelvis to get things rolling#because then for the rest of the movie we’d be like “😵💫😵💫 okay 🫠🫠🫠🫠”#there’s probably more we can add to this discussion#but these were my quick thoughts#I’d also argue that Baz pulled off the same thing with our feelings of sympathy with his choice for the very first scene of Elvis#I’m still obsessed and picking this movie apart like crazy#elvis 2022#austin butler#elvis presley

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers (except me because obvs I have done it). Spread the self-love ❤
Aw, thank you for thinking of me. I loved reading your picks! You’re right, Ashton, self love can be challenging but I am going to give it a go.
1) Depth of Reason (71k, M)
Probably no surprise here, I’ve called it my favorite before. I put a lot into this fic. It handles a lot of complex issues and takes a different and unique look at the World of Mages while also feeling entirely plausible within that world. I also really, really love this version of Simon. I put a lot into him and at the start it may look like a story about Baz’s journey but it’s really about Simon’s journey of questioning the beliefs he has and questioning the things he’s taken for granted.
It’s also probably no surprise that this fic is a little bit of a love letter to one of my fave fics Restoration Ecology by the lovely @captain-aralias. It’s obvious how that story inspired mine (Simon POV, older Snowbaz get together, Simon works for the Coven, he goes through this journey of looking within himself, etc.)
2) How to Avoid a Scandal (43k, T)
This fic has a lot going for it and was for to write for several reasons: 1) This was a CO Reverse Bang fic, so it was inspired by art made by @xi-vz and thus got me to write something I may not have come up with in my own. 2) @xi-vz kept making art for it, and in true reverse bang fashion, it kept challenging me to write the plot in a way that incorporated what the art portrayed. Truly such a fun way to find inspiration. 3) since this was a Hollywood AU, I wrote script excerpts for the tv show the boys were acting in to bookend each chapter and to tie into/nod to what was going on in the greater story while also playing with the idea of a WoM television show I’d made up. This was kind of a nod to the Snowbaz excerpts in Fangirl and these were just generally so fun to write. 4) friends to lovers, my beloved.
Also!!! The incredible @shrekgogurt told me she was inspired by the script bookends in this fic, which led her to adding the flashback bookends to I Knew A Boy, I Knew A Man and like (!!!) can we all agree those fucking flashbacks are AMAZING and totally add so much to that fic?! I’m so happy this was able to inspire such genius.
3) Rose-Colored Glasses (7k, T)
I don’t always get the chance to reread fics once they are published but I reread this one recently and while part of me latched on to things I’d try to write better if I were writing this years later and with more experience under my belt, I still nonetheless think this fic pretty good. For one, while it wasn’t my first published fic, it was my first most widely read fic. That helped me make a lot of connections in the fandom and probably established an audience that wanted to read more of my writing. Additionally, I think this sort of established my brand. I’ve written a lot of friends to lovers and this is the touchstone of me writing that trope. It’s got a sweetness to it that permeates a lot of my writing. Also, my pfp is still the beautiful, tender, fun art from that fic that @mostlymaudlin made and so y’all get to be reminded of it all the time 😂 Also have to give a shout out to @ivelovedhimthroughworse who made a lovely Podfic of this. ♥️
4) The Rule of Three (Doesn’t Apply to You) (9k, T)
This fic was a gift fic to the lovely @facewithoutheart whose prompt requested a funny Snowbaz get together with low/no angst. It was also part of a holiday exchange and I wanted it to have at least some Christmas-y vibes without being other the top, since that’s not quite Christina’s thing. I remember feeling very intimidated by the task of trying to be funny for one of the funniest writers in this fandom. Gulp. But also, while I’ve written some fun/funny things, I appreciated the impetus to really go for it in this fic. I think it’s a fun, sweet story and quite memorable, at least to me.
5) A Prickly Disposition (1.9k, T)
This is a short fic but I’m really proud of it. I’ve really had to work at brevity and I am still surprised I could write a get together fic in under 2k. (And I wrote it in one sitting, which still feels crazy because it came out so good without a ton of hair pulling.) This fic feels longer than it is, which feels like a special kind of magic. Plus my dear friend @fatalfangirl made a Podfic of this which just is such a great listen I cannot recommend it enough.
#this was harder than I thought it was going to be#I feel like I’ve ranked my faves before and it’s possible my choices have changed#but also some of them have stayed on this list#snowbaz#simon snow#baz pitch#my writing#carry on fanfiction

2024 reads / storygraph
Where Sleeping Girls Lie
YA mystery/thriller
a girl who’s been home-schooled all her life attends prestigious boarding school after her father’s (last family member) death - and her roommate disappears the first night
as she starts to investigate with the help of her roommates best friend, she catches the attention of the most popular girls in school, and some of the popular boys.
she starts to uncover secrets about students at the school while the disappearance is dismissed by the school and authorities. But when a student turns up dead, things start to get more complicated.
sapphic, Muslim MC, twisty but slow-paced
#Where Sleeping Girls Lie#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#Oooh I liked this a lot. Damn.#There were some things initially that I was a little confused about or like annoyed at the lack of communication or connections made#- but when more is revealed about the MC those make a lot more sense.#(from my notes: why do you keep hanging out with x!!!!!! [later:] oh. i get it now.)#I really love Baz and the focus on friendship here#and the romance is also sweet (and also not a choice a lot of other books would make I think!)#also. this book is very long and I can imagine if I weren’t listening to the audiobook it would have dragged a bit

Sleeping on Simon is used to show how much Baz craves physical and emotional closeness to Simon in WS (pretending to fall asleep on his shoulder iirc) and then, in SFC, it shows that Baz fully has all the closeness and intimacy he has been craving and more, including things he never thought he would have, like unconditional love and support, to have Simon want to take care of him and make him happy, comfort him and make him laugh (sleeping on Simon, who hordes all the pillows, leaving Baz to use him as his pillow) (you have to wonder if Simon does it on purpose haha)
#‘I like to sleep with multiple pillows and if that leaves Baz no choice but to sleep on my chest well!’#simon is actually too attentive to Baz’s needs to just horde all the pillows and not think about Baz not having any to sleep on#he probably gave him a pillow when he came to bed at first but then figured with all the cuddling#he would rather just offer a tiddie#Baz did tell him he likes his chest#in a way that would satisfy his need to provide for Baz and keep him well etc#being both his personal heater and his pillow lol#simon snow#snowbaz#baz pitch#simon snow trilogy#carry on#baz x simon#baz grimm pitch#awtwb#snow for christmas

DONE WITH FINALS RAHHHHH
i spent the last 5 days straight glued to a desk to the point that i needed to bandage my elbow because i was leaning on it too much and it got irritated.
for part of my essay i was talking about vampires and i talked about carry on
i’m realizing this is the third time i’ve talked about carry on in a school assignment.
once in 8th grade, once in 10th grade, and once now. insane. i wonder how rainbow rowell would feel about her book being a source in a college assignment.
baz pitch i love you forever and ever
#rambles#the fact i talked abt carry on was so embarrassing like when i got the feedback on my sources where the teacher was like#‘interesting choice. your reasoning is solid tho so go for it’#i had to refrain from banging my head against the wall#*academic paper on the history of monsters vs modern day* ‘so when i was in middleschool i read this book-‘#simon snow trilogy#carry on#baz pitch

People will call tumblr the autism website but can't even handle when people answer a rhetorical question in their posts
#baz talks#tbh i feel like the way autistic ppl are treated on here has gotten worse over time#but maybe ive just gotten less tolerant of it#i understand being annoyed by a ton of ppl doing this but you can make a choice to not be a dick about it. iml#imo *

I admire Austin’s and Baz’s strength for going tonight. The sadness on their faces breaks my heart, and I know it must have been incredibly hard.

confronted by the fact that i get a genuine mood boost from a stranger online saying "fascinating" and "interesting read" on one of my posts like i'm still chasing the validation of ap lit students like in high school...who am i kidding this goes deeper, all the way back to chasing validation from librarians when i was 5
#i think i'm more fascinated by the great gatsby than i was when i was reading it in school#found myself drawn lately to the broken clock as a metaphor#and analyzing the choices in the most recent movie#leo dicaprio looking and sounding so out of place in his own skin#tobey maguire playing repressed gay so well (but if that conspiracy theory about him and dicaprio is true >.>)#analyzing daisy as a character with the lens of desperate adulthood...#and all the while thinking about zelda#also baz luhrman did moulin rouge twice just in different cities and different casts lmao#leo dicaprio is satine lmao
