Updated my Casey/Donna playlist

[those70scomics]

“ (okay, I could probably write a full meta on her relationship with Casey, so I’ll stop here for now).”

I would love to see that meta! I personally don’t like that dynamic and the power imbalance (Casey being 21 and Donna 17).

On the show, Donna uses her relationship with Casey as a coping mechanism for her grief about her mom and Eric. One moment (before "The Promise Ring"), the aspects that make up her reality / life are consistent abd reliable. Then they're irrevocably changed. She doesn't know how to adjust. Her father is a mess himself, and Eric's insecurity deprives her of Mrs. Forman's much-needed support.

Jackie is Donna's only constant support, but she's the Jackie who hasn't yet learned to live fully (or a touch less than fully) in reality but fantasy. Donna goes down the same path with Casey that Jackie does with Kelso, imagining her boyfriend to be someone he isn't and easily dismisses obvious red flags.

Casey goes out of town a lot, and from Michael Kelso's warning to Eric -- added to Casey's other behavior -- one can reasonably suspect Casey of not being faithful to Donna. "They're just words," he says to Eric of, "I love you." But Donna believes Casey when he says them because she needs to.

Because of Donna's lack of healthy, consistent emotional support during season four -- with rare exceptions from Hyde, Kitty, and Eric himself -- she's terrified and reacting to her feelings instead of truly facing them. She convinces herself that Casey is the solution to her pain and clings to her false belief for dear life.

Donna, when not in such pain, would take Casey's words about coping at face value (e.g., "Crack open another beer") instead of giving them a deeper meaning they don't have. She'd call out Casey's flakiness and stick to it rather than accept his explanation that being unreliable is just the way he is. She never would've let Eric get away with such disrespectful nonsense.

The relationship with Casey, and filling her mind with him when he's not around, allows Donna to avoid her feelings. Casey also enables avoidance behaviors when he is present, and she takes on his bullying, hostile nature as another avoidance tactic. She's psychologically malicious to Eric, thankless and snappish to Hyde, and giddily agrees with Casey's sexually-violating advice to Fez about Rhonda. She skips school and gets drunk in the morning with Casey, which falls in line with her self-destructiveness when she needs help and doesn't know how else to get it.

Donna is not mentally well at this point in her life, and she very much needed her dad to step-up. He fails her because he doesn't have good coping skills himself. But he's still responsible for the well-being of his child. She's seventeen, and while that's older than seven, teenagers still need guidance and support.

If Eric had been less selfish, insecure, and perhaps spiteful, he might have "allowed" his mom to be that healthy support for Donna. It's of course tricky since he's hurting, too. But Donna didn't only lose her boyfriend/best friend, she also -- in a very real sense -- lost her mother and father.

As for the age difference, that's part and parcel of Casey's indifference to people who aren't himself. He doesn't consider what might or might not be a healthy relationship dynamic. He enjoys using Donna for company, for fooling around, for messing with Eric. He's an even more malicious, selfish narcissist than his brother Michael. He's essentially Michael without the tiny spark of decency and self-awareness Michael has.

Casey also doesn't seem to get emotionally attached to people. Michael does, and that's where his sense of entitlement comes in. He wants Jackie and Hyde to hurt because he feels hurt by them. Casey, however, doesn't get hurt because he doesn't care. He might be sociopathic. He certainly knows how to pour on the charm to gets what he wants from people, and being malicious to others brings him joy.

Donna is at the height of vulnerability when Jackie sets her up with Casey, and Casey recognizes an easy mark when he sees one.

Hello my darlings. I have decided that until further notice, requests will be closed. I have become overwhelmed and come with a writers block with all your requests. Even though I love doing them and get excited that you love my writing, I’m having a hard time writing all of them. What made me want to close them was i was in the middle of writing a Kelso x reader fic when all my writing got deleted. I’m also not only writing The Things You Give, but also my own novel that I’m going to publish. I appreciate the love and know that I love you all back more than you can ever know, but as of right now I can’t. I will open them again but I’m not sure when. Much love and kisses to you all. I should be posting part 30 relatively soon. Thank you all for your patience. It means the world to me ❤️

Middle school me (13/14ish): Eh, whatever. Interesting.

Me now (17): Jackie wtf? Donna’s only 17 and Casey’s 21.

[animelover28sworld]

I might be making some Disney twisted wonderland incorrect quotes or scenes where MC/Yuu is married to one of the characters and has kids. And this post is going to be about the kids name and who are the parents and how many kids. So kinda like an OCS and head cannons. PT one

MC/Yuu x Ace Trappola- one or two kids if it two kids the oldest would be a girl named Anna May Trappola and the youngest would be a boy name Ethan Ace Trappola. If it's one a boy.

MC/Yuu × Deuce Spade- two kids one boy and one girl. The boy would be the oldest and be named Daniel Gabriel Spade, the girl would be the youngest and be named Gabriella Lynn Spade.

MC/Yuu × Cater Diamond- two kids both girls named Caroline Ann Diamond and Casey Marie Diamond. Caroline is the oldest and Casey is the youngest.

MC/Yuu × Trey Clover- three or two kids. If it's two kids both boys the oldest being named Travis Trey Clover and the youngest being named Nicholas Daniel Clover. If it's three two girls and one boy. The oldest is a girl and is named Taylor Raylynn Clover and the middle will be the boy and be named Travis Trey Clover and the other girl will be the youngest and would be named Kaylee Marie Clover.

MC/Yuu × Riddle Rosehearts. One or two kids. If it's one kid it will be a boy named Noah Davis Rosehearts. If it's two both boys the oldest boy still being named Noah Davis Rosehearts the youngest would be named Isaac Riddle Rosehearts.

MC/Yuu × Jack howl- two kids at the most. Both girls the oldest would be named Jane Daisy Howl and the youngest would be named Hallie Lynn Howl.

MC/Yuu × Ruggie Bucchi- like Jack two kids at the most one girl and one boy. The boy is the oldest and is named Ryan Tripp Bucchi and the youngest is the girl and is named Grace Quinn Bucchi.

MC/Yuu × Leona Kingscholar. One kid no more just one. And it would be a girl named Laura Lynn Kingscholar.

MC/Yuu × Jade leech- two or three, two would probably be twins since twins run in his family both boys named Kyle Adam Leech and Jason Adam Leech. If it's three still twin boys and one girl. The twins will be the oldest and still be named Kyle Adam Leech and Jason Adam Leech the girl will be the youngest and named Hannah Isabella Leech.

MC/Yuu × Floyd Leech- three. One being a pair of girl twins and one being a boy. The twins would be the oldest and would be named Donna Marie Leech and the other twin would be named Leah Marie Leech and the youngest is the boy named Lucas Floyd Leech.

Azul Ashengrotto- two both girls the oldest is named Abigail Elizabeth Ashengrotto and the youngest is named Ashley May Ashengrotto.

Kalim Al- Asim- probably 6 or five kids, yes I know it's a lot but he grew up with tons of brothers and sisters. If it's six kids four girls and two boys, the oldest is one of the girls named Kylie Grace Al- Asim, the second oldest would be one of the boys and named Kayden Isaiah Al- Asim, the third would be the second boy named Kade Adam Al Asim, the fourth would be another girl named Stacey Marie Al Asim, and the youngest two would be girl twins named Star River Al Asim and Treasure Ray Al Asim five kids: two boys and three girls.

Jamil Viper- one or two kids. If it's one it would be a boy named Lucas Benjamin Viper if it's two both girls the oldest girl would be named Jamie Isabella Viper and the youngest named Joanna Marie Viper.

In pt 2 I'll do the others

Fez x Therapy 🥰

Since That '70s Show has many different versions of Fez, emojis alone can't convey my opinion.

Fez during his Nice Guy syndrome phase with Jackie x Therapy: 😍

Fez taking Casey Kelso's awful advice with Rhonda x Therapy: 😍

Fez when he hides in Donna's closet and under her bed to pleasure himself x Therapy (and a Restraining Order): 😍

RWBY

Thank you for the ask! Here we go:

Favorite female character? Ilia Penny Pyrrha Ruby Nora(!!!!) Emerald Weiss and most of all… maria😔she’s so fucking funny i loved her energy v6. Further explanations, Ilia has an adorable design, great voice actor and decent enough representation. Nora’s timeskip design was unmatched and she’s very quotable, plus her personality reminds me of one of my close friends irl. Ruby’s struggles in V9 (until they fucked that up) really hit with me as I’d gone through something very similar, and Penny… Penny just makes me happy. What they did with her makes me angry, but Penny makes me smile. :D

Favorite male character? I got a couple but at the moment it’s tied by Sun and Roman. Sun has fun energy and Roman is himself and iconic. Others are: James is hot and so is the bad bird BF he got by being autistic. Mercury is cool for the 5 seconds of screentime he gets every volume now. Tyrian and Watts got impeccable swag and the 5 hour long make out scene between the two of them was very interesting. Adam is cathartic and fun as hell to write my little meow meow. Jaune is best when he’s just a little loser dork, and Ren is very pretty.

Favorite Volume? Surprise surprise, Volume 3. I fucking love tournament arcs. I. Love. Tournament. Arcs.

Favorite Episode? That whole Apathy Arc in V6!!! Great horror in my opinion. I wish they’d show off more creative Grimm like that again. And as a side note, V6 is just… the best looking volume.

Favorite cast member? If they count, Jeff and Casey!! SUCH good music.

Favorite ship? *cracks knuckles* Freezerburn, Catmeleon, Monochrome, Schne//ekos, Pussy Magnet Purrah, Greek fire, nuts and dolts, Bees Schnees, Khali, Spicecream, Seamonkeys, Emercury, If there’s one between Ilia and Ruby put it here, Ginger Snaps, Arctic Winter, Silver Lotus, *looks at writings on my palm* Snow pines, Ironqrow, James x Oz, Crimsun, Strawbana, Nuts and Volts, and Rosebird. To name a few. Some might not be my favorites, these are just ones I like/like in concept. :) Character I’d die defending? Sienna fucking Khan. The whole White Fang, honestly. I do think protesting through violence against your oppressors is very swag and real actually. Plus she’s hot.

A character I can’t sympathize with? Uhhhhhh…… SALEM!!!!!!!!!! Cinder too ish but Salem mostly. Like, I feel a TINY bit bad, only because the gods are undeniably awful garbage horrible terrible. She still sucks though.

A character I grew to love? …Adam. I did not give a single shit about his decently attractive redhead ass until that reveal and his death in V6. He has become my blorbo; my skrunkly. My cringefail loser, my girly pop. Engrained within my brain like a silly silly worm. He’s fun to draw. Fun to write. REALLY fun to write. I can put him in so many situations. So many bittersweet, melancholic situations. And in so many outfits.

My Anti-otp? Ive got a couple.

Bumbl//Bee. Not my thing. Could have been, had they not continually tried making “Only disabled main character losing her arm” something “romantic” as well as paralleling said character to her partner’s… um… ex abuser? Hello?

Embe//rald. Fuck Abusive ships.

Taura//donna. Fuck Abusive ships.

Frostbite. This one is actually one of my least favorite ships, as it is essentially a pairing between the ex-racist ex-heiress of a huge company to the in universe minority said company enslaved and branded while he was a child. Plus, again. Fuck. Abusive. Ships.

Ar//kos. Not… my… thing.

Winter and Marrow or Robyn and Marrow. Nope nope nope. No. Thank. You.

Etc etc etc I could go on all day. Thank you for the ask!

Editors’ Choice: 

Get those pencils sharpened and grab your sweater because SCHOOL IS BACK IN SESSION. One of our first newsletters featured some of our favorite school-related fics, and we thought this week was the perfect time to do another round-up of school-themed fics with back-to-school vibes that we missed then or that have been written since then. We’re sure we missed some great ones, so as always feel free to reblog/retweet with more of your own faves!

days by jazzjo | Rated G | C.J. Cregg/Donna Moss | Complete |  decisions are made by those who show up (to class) or, moka pots, rye bread, and first day jitters

Back To School by Jennifer Glimpse 20 [archived by westwingfanfictioncentral_archivist]  | Rated T | Josh Lyman/Donna Moss | Complete | Donna heads back to school. . . with a little help from Josh.

AP Gov by park_all_covered_with_cheese (Sports Night Crossover) | Rated G | Sam Seaborn/Original Female Character(s), Josh Lyman/Donna Moss, Danny Concannon/C. J. Cregg, Casey McCall/Dan Rydell, Mandy Hampton/Josh Lyman, C. J. Cregg/Simon Donovan, Andrea Wyatt/Toby Ziegler, Amy Gardner/Josh Lyman, Casey McCall/Lisa McCall | Complete |  "Alyssa Leah Nelson was exactly one day, one minute, and thirty-two seconds old when she met Joshua Lyman (who was two months, three days, four hours, forty minutes, and seventeen seconds, though no one’s counting) for the first time. He poked her. She looked back at him, determined, and didn’t cry. They’ve been inseparable ever since." High school is high school. And every single one of our faves had to go there at one point. And every single one of them dated, and had friends, and had drama because of course they did. And, of course, were obsessive about politics

mine is yours and yours is mine (there is no divide) by rearviewmirror  | Rated T | C.J. Cregg/Donna Moss | Complete |  jed steals leo's clothes, and leo finally calls him out on it.

absolutely smitten (never let you go) by JessBakesCakes for fairwinds09 | Rated G | Josh Lyman/Donna Moss | Complete | Josh feels all the air whoosh out of his lungs when he sees the teacher standing on the other side of the door. She looks at the group standing outside her door, puzzled for a moment, until her blue eyes lock with Josh’s. Her blonde hair is tucked neatly behind her ears, and pumpkin earrings dangle from her earlobes. She’s wearing a copper-colored fall sweater, adorned with leaves around the collar that match her bulletin board. Her ID badge dangles from her neck, one of those ink pens in a bright, funky color clipped to her lanyard. “Miss Moss,” CJ says. “This is Mr. Lyman from the high school."

the first thing we do by fiery_one_18 | Rated T | Ainsley Hayes/Sam Seaborn, Josh Lyman/Donna Moss, C. J. Cregg/Kate Harper | In Progress |  The days were getting shorter, the nights were getting colder, and he had begun to partake in his seasonal sweater collection. Which could only mean one thing in his still-quite-young life: the season of Mock Trial was officially upon Sam Seaborn. … Sam’s tunnel vision hadn’t quite cleared enough to pay attention to who Mr. McGarry was talking to, but he sort of had to pay attention when the bearer of the distinctly Southern drawl walked right by, snapping him out of whatever rage coma his mind had placed him in. And Sam definitely knew he was back and wide awake when a long blonde ponytail with a purposeful stride sat down right in front of him in what appeared to be her new seat. Josh’s seat, actually. Not that she seemed to realize that; it made sense— she was probably a… transfer. Oh fuck no. Fuck no. Fuck no. Fuck— “Hi, I’m Ainsley,” Ponytail turned around, blue eyes piercing the very depths of his fucking soul. “What’s your name?” … Welcome to Landingham Academy’s 20th Annual Mock Trial Season!

Stick around for our reblog coming momentarily with this week's new fics and chapter updates!!

Comics this week ?

Anonymous asked: Thoughts on Kneel Before Zod's first issue?

Apologies for the delay, caught a case of Covid I'm still recovering from.

Kneel Before Zod #1 - Loved it. McDaid's art evokes memories of the DCAU for me, and his style is fantastic when it comes to scifi concepts. Casey has a great approach to Zod here, his son is the hot headed conqueror who wants to force everyone to KNEEL immediately which forces Zod to be the adult and actually plan things out. Complicating things is the cosmic politics of the United Planets breathing down Zod's neck which I've been begging to see for ages. Bendis formed the United Planets out of pure optimism and almost immediately after everyone started deconstructing the hell out of them. Zod's philosophy that peace can only be assured through mutually assured destruction is exactly the kind of philosophical differences I've wanted to see explored between him and Superman. Kal believes you can unite everyone by appealing to their better natures, Zod believes you can unite everyone by terrifying them into submission. Ursa here is an interesting question mark - she's no less ruthless but maybe a touch softer where her son is concerned? Speaking of which, Lor getting banished out into the galaxy where he's forced to undergo a version of Jon's own trip through space is actually brilliant and I adore it. Sets Lor up as a contrast to Jon in a way where I actually want to see the two meet. Oh and for those who want to see some Injustice type violence, we get that. Normally I'm not a "feats" guy but I actually am eager to see Zod kick ass and claim some skulls for his trophy room. Glad to see Casey following up on that plot thread from Williamson's Batman/Superman run where Zod has half of the Kandorians and is working on curing them. Zod tapping into the planet's core for his super weapon makes me think this series will end with New Kandor being destroyed as a result of Zod's own hubris, but Zod will successfully revive the Kandorians and they will blame the United Planets for what happened/not supporting New Kandor as agreed, causing them to attack the United Planets in retaliation.

Superman '78: The Metal Curtain #3 - Think I get why this series isn't hitting as hard as the first. With Brainiac Venditti had a take that allowed him to position Brainiac as a foil for Superman, plus he had the Bottled City of Kandor to give Superman a new internal conflict. Here there's no new internal conflict for Supes and Metallo doesn't contrast well at all. The Soviets view Superman through the lens of being an American icon, but Superman himself isn't even aware yet about that being why they're targeting him. Hopefully Lex entering the fray spices things up.

Blue Beetle #5 - Will the twist be Victoria doesn't betray Jaime, because right now they're practically screaming what's coming in your face.

Fantastic Four #11 - North speed running his way through a topic that the X-Line has been dealing with since HoX/PoX, and doing a better job of it than the post Hickman X-Writers generally have in the bargain, is one of life's funniest twists. Glad that the kids are finally back.

Dr. Strange #11 - Teasing that maybe Strange and Clea will one day have a kid of their own? Or that they'll raise Donna full time? Could get behind either one of those.
