Doug & Tina | Minx 1x05 / 2x01

[britishsass]

got in a mood. Decided to look through my old art and find almost every picture of Doug and Caroline I've made in the past 6 years. (This is why it slowly gets worse /lh)

I still think my favorites are the ones I did for my birthday in two different years, aka the first two. The one of Doug playing guitar, aka the second one, is still a piece I really liked making.

Anyways. Thought with the fact that others are starting to enjoy this ship too, I should share what I made a long time back ^_^

Oh also !! What about "vanishing act" ??? (I really like the title btw!!)

Thank you!! I'm glad you love the title too, I'm obsessed with it personally, not to brag or anything FSKJDHJKSFD

Gotta be honest I've been reticent to share anything about this one because of how high tensions are running in fandom right now! Like, the need to put tons of disclaimers and over-explain myself is crazyyyy... anyway yeah disclaimer I don't think any of this will be canon, I'm not anti-tommy, not personally big into shipping bucktommy but also don't mind if you do, I multiship like crazy, and I love when men are fucked up and evil. That should cover it hopefully.

So yeah anyway Vanishing Act is my Evil!Tommy fic JKSFKJ. Basically just like the Jonah evil reveal recontextualized all his previous actions, the fic extrapolates and reinterprets Tommy's canon behaviors in a new, darker direction. Essentially, after realizing that both Buck and Eddie are inextricable from each other, he sets his sights on Josh, who is by his own admission already incredibly isolated. And boy, does it work.

I'm planning on either three or five chapters, and the first two are definitely going to be Maddie POV, still not sure whether or not I'm going to keep it that way for the whole fic or switch over to other POVs for later chapters. I don't have the later chapters worked out nearly as clearly as the first ones alas.

There's a lot of angst about Maddie and Josh's relationship getting more tense, and her thinking maybe she's wrong but what if she's right, and what can she even do, and what if she's going to lose her best friend to the same thing that almost killed her? And yes, there will be direct parallels drawn between Doug and Tommy. You see why I need the disclaimers. It's an AU! I don't think that's what he's actually like I promise! I will be writing Good Timeline fics where he isn't evil for those who aren't into this sort of thing. I have a diversity of content and like playing with lots of different, incompatible ideas.

(And if it wasn't obvious by the description, the title is a reference to "vanishing" into a toxic relationship/losing who you are and pretending that everything is fine to everyone, even yourself.)

rewatching er and the scene when carol goes to see doug after she’s been rejected as a foster mom to tatiana 🫠

like yes she goes for physical comfort but she also goes because doug was the only person who didnt think she was crazy for wanting to foster tatiana and “you were exactly what she needed” and “you are the only person who thinks that” and HE KNOWS HER because he knows what he has lost without her and he’s the only person who truly understands what a brilliantly beautiful heart carol hathaway has

and doug loves carol so so so much and he’s wanted her to come back for so long but he knows she’s way too emotionally affected to even begin to think rationally and he also knows that she will not let him do that to her again and overstepping any physical lines would end up destroying her trust in him completely so he gives her a little peck on her forehead and makes sure she feels safe and gets home safe and stays yearning for her within her own boundaries for the next 2 seasons 🥺

not to shit on anyones picnic but no love story will ever be as great as doug and carols ��️

It’s been a busy 2023 so far! So for the next couple of days, I’m going to post about some of the fics I’ve written so far this year. :)

First up, the January and February fics I wrote for @yearoftheotpevent! The prompts I chose were “fake dating” for January and “established relationship” for February, featuring Rollisi (SVU) and Doug/Carol (ER), respectively.

#faith's stated motivation this episode is not that buffy stabbed her#it's that she's dating riley#this is a doug petrie stan account#bad girls enemies and this year's girl?#he's the fuffy warrior (via @comradesummers)

“I know writers who use subtext and they’re all cowards” — Doug Petrie, probably

[trueloveistreacherous]

I’m still in love with him. I am. I’ve been in love with him since I was 23 years old. He’s everything to me. He’s my life. I feel complete when I’m with him and I feel empty when we’re apart. He’s the father of my children. And he’s my soulmate.

To be fair, Doug Rattmann has already filled the "moon imagery that goes hard" quota for us:

Also this:

i cant believe the final fight of portal involved breaking the ceiling to the surface and revealing the full moon, which is ultimately what saves you, and the fandom DIDN’T put a shit ton of moon imagery into their fanart??

rationally i understand that they had to have doug leave carol alone during her entire pregnancy and be (offscreen) barely there the first months of his daughters lives because george clooney was becoming a movie star and left the show, but ideologically i would never have forgiven that man for blithely living half a continent away while i was raising his twins on the daily.

Things we Know about @sliphater and @slipjacksonlover (w/ citations):

1) They are not the same person. (revealed in the tags)

2) They've made out in a closet.

3) They work together producing their own podcast. (more on this later)

4) They both have listened to Wolf 359 and love Doug Eiffel.

5) SlipJacksonLover does hate someone: Joe Fisher, Midnight Burger.

6) Diversity win/loss! They're both asexual!

7) They started making out (again) and will not stop for the next 17 years. (That's how long Slip's coma lasted)

8) Slip Jackson died, they shook hands. Did SlipHater ever confess their undying love?

9) SlipHater gave a speech at the Slip Jackson funeral that they were not invited to in the SlipJacksonLover Discord server that they were also not invited to.

10) SlipHater also doubles as NureyevHater. They hold so much hate in their heart.

11) It's all satire.

12) SlipJacksonLover smoked a joint in honor of Slip Jackson.

13) Podcast with them is titled "Either" where Sliphater voices the depressed idiot and SlipJacksonLover voices the other idiot.

In conclusion: they are coworkers, best friends, rivals, an enemy and a lover, polar opposites, soul mates, the true otp we should've been rooting for. Sliphater×SlipJacksonLover should've been on my season 5 bingo card god dammit.
