sirius has just sorta, inserted himself into my fic.
he wasn’t meant to be here much; a background character, there for vibes but not crucial to the plot.
but being the absolute queen he is, refuses to be ignored.
I love it when characters write themselves and give me absolutely no say in the matter /sar 🙄

Do Howdy and Barnaby ever get together in your human au 🥺🥺
of course they do, who do you think i am
oh BOY do i have things to say about human!Laughingstock! im so unwell about them allow me to talk and talk and talk and ta-
~
so in this au they're like... the ultimate slowburn. their feelings for each other slowly simmer and grow over the course of *checks nonexistent watch* a lil over a decade i think. it's not very dramatic - just soft & silly w/ just a heap of pining and a pinch of angst for Flavor
it starts when they were teens - Howdy had a lil crush on Barnaby in middle school. and how could he not? Barnaby was cute, hilarious, and kind. at this point, they weren't friends! Barnaby knew Howdy's name, but only because they'd shared a school since elementary (as with 6/7 of the other neighbors) & speaking from experience, you just Know Those Names. Howdy slowly "grew out of" this crush, especially when the friend group started forming and he & Barnaby became actual friends.
that crush would fluctuate over the years. It starts out strong and then softens into just this hum in the back of Howdy's mind. always there, often easy to ignore, just... part of him, in a way.
Barnaby has a similar experience. when he and Howdy became friends, he got a lil crush - how could he not? Howdy was cute, laughed at all of his jokes and had a few of his own, and was endearingly eccentric. but at the time, Barnaby didn't recognize the crush for what it was. so he elected to ignore it until the crush dwindled to something easily manageable, something he wouldn't realize is still there. as with Howdy's, it'd never fully go away
and its noticeable enough to their friends that they'd all kinda side-eye how touchy Howdy & Barnaby are with each other (Barnaby is a physical guy, but damn. if Howdy is nearby they Will find a way to be touching at all times), the way they always laugh at each others jokes, the way they always ask "where's [x] / is [x] coming with" whenever the other is absent. but the group couldn't be sure if they were looking into it or not. it's too subtle. over time they get so used to it that they don't bat an eye - Howdy is Barnaby's best friend after Wally. of course they're close!
but then there's this one college party Howdy drags Barnaby to (and by extension, Wally). they're drunk off their asses, Wally's edible has kicked in, the party is pretty chill and everyone is having a decent time. all three of them are on the couch, and Barnaby and Howdy start drunk-complimenting each other. naturally, this feeds their mutual attraction, and one thing leads to another! they make out on the couch. naturally with Wally sandwiched between them, snacking on chips and committing the moment to memory (it's a surprise tool that'll help them later!) neither Barnaby nor Howdy will remember this
now, something i'd like to state for Barnaby in this au! he has had a lot of relationships - from one night stands to actually dating someone for months. sometimes the one night stands were a "he takes someone home after a date, & they leave while he's sleeping and ghost him" situation. with actual dating, the other person always breaks things off after a few weeks, if not days. it breaks Barnaby's heart a little bit every time. to the point where in his mid-20s, he just... stops dating. he avoids other people's advancements towards him, he always takes a friend with him to bars/etc as a buffer, he becomes an expert at gracefully turning people down
("why, pray tell" no one asks "do they always leave him? he's such a catch!" that he is! when he was in school, it was his friend group. he'd try to introduce his 'girlfriend' to his friends, and it'd be an immediate "eugh, you're friends with those freaks? no way!" as an adult, people found it off-putting how (by societal standards) unusually close he was with Wally. also, again, a "weird" friend group. they'd think it's too much, or just not their scene, or 'why don't you date your little blue haired boyfriend', etc. Barnaby never holds it against Wally or his friends. he has the mindset of if that person was the one, they would accept every part of Barnaby - and his friends are indeed part of him. Howdy has also dated around a little, but to a much lesser extent. he's too busy! he doesn't have time for that!)
but the ball really starts rolling in their late 20s. something the group does together - as a fun lil rare hobby - is LARPing. they get really into it! Sally made them all custom costumes, Julie helped make the weapons (like a giant sword for herself), etc etc. they fully commit to the bit (even Frank <3). so at this event's point in the timeline, Eddie is fully integrated into the clique, but that's unimportant - just to show where we are!
so they're all doing their thing, it's a pretty big LARP event - there's always way more people than our dear neighbors, yk. they're just part of the crowd! & there's a big battle hosted, the group is split between teams, but Barnaby & Howdy are on the same side! yay! during the battle, Barnaby is "mortally wounded." Howdy half-drags him away from the main battle under the cover of their teammates (including Eddie and Julie) and sits him down by the tree. now, Howdy & Barnaby are the ones who get into the roleplay the most. they get lost in the sauce! they perform the hell out of everything they do!
& since Barnaby is "dying", he really acts like it. Howdy acts accordingly, but again, they get a little too emotional, a little too into it, a little lost in the sauce. genuine tears are in their eyes, Howdy's voice is genuinely shaking a little as he holds Barnaby in his "dying moments" (Barnaby is holding the sword between his arm and his side. he has ketchup on his armor.) Eddie and Julie are getting choked up just watching this happen. and as Howdy & Barnaby look into each others' tear-filled eyes, those little feelings that have been so quiet for so long come right back babey! full force! but then they all get hit with "arrows" and have to die right there and then, and the moments over. but! both Barnaby & Howdy walk away from this LARP session grappling with Partially Realized Feelings.
Barnaby struggles with this the most, since yk at this point he's sworn off dating. he's being careful with his heart! but when he tells Wally all of this, cause he tells Wally everything, Wally's like "oh. yes, i know! remember that one college party where you two kissed for an hour". and then he goes on to point out every instance where he's thought "right, Howdy and Barnaby are in love" (bc Wally is way more observant than he lets on! he saw that shit! his peepers were peepin!)
BUT IT'S STILL A SLOW BURN BABEY!
Barnaby and Howdy don't approach each other about this. they're both in the boat of "well, i'll just keep going and see what happens" to the point where they're practically dating without ever saying anything to each other. Howdy notices how Barnaby lingers around the store more. Barnaby notices how Howdy keeps turning up at his work to talk more. (they already chat so much...) but they still! dont! say! anything! but they both Know! they're not emotionally circling each other they are Dancing to their Own Music!
and Barnaby is letting himself believe that this can work because, well... Howdy already accepts him as he is. Howdy is part of the group. Howdy loves Wally just like the rest of em. Howdy has seen Barnaby at his (presumed) worst and didn't even flinch! as for Howdy, well, he just thinks this is right! his whole life no one has really caught his eyes or heart, but Barnaby is different. he's always been in Howdy's peripherals. it feels natural to love him so deeply. Barnaby slots into his life like the final piece of a puzzle!
there's a lot of stuff that happens in this inbetween state - Howdy's store burns down & almost takes him with it, there's some family drama that needs to be handled, The Crash happens, etc etc etc - so it's a while before they "actually" get together. but they're both patient! they've waited this long, even if they didn't know they were waiting. neither of them are in a rush. they're young. they have time.

ugh i hate when i feel on the verge of a panic attack
imma rant for a sec soz, u dont have to read the whole thing
...
im just so stressed rn, with school, family, friends and ive got like two auditions i need to prepare for and tbh i just feel anxious for no reason, i feel like im getting 'bad' again, like were i was just in my room and doing the same thing everyday and my brain hated that, and i just felt numb, like i dont think im depressed or anything like idk, i feel like i should explain what happened to originally make me feel like this, i wont go into full detail ect, but yeh
basically i was friends with this girl (we met at performing arts classes) and she i guess never rlly treated me amazing and was always slightly werid for example (not saying this is weird but from the way she is irl and they way she sounded seemed strange) so last year i was facetiming her and i was like "oh btw ive got a bf now", and she kinda seemed a bit Awkard, like her smile faded and she was just kinda like "oh thats great for u" a bit numbly (i should probs mention she isnt straight and for all ik she is bi) and then instantly changes the subject to "oh btw i was thinking of asking out-" and yeh we talked about it, anyway i spoke to my mum how i thought it was a bit weird and my mum said "oh hahaha maybe she has a crush on u" and im (pretty sure im) straight so like i didnt know how to react, anyway fast forward she started to act rlly weird and yeh, like kinda being a bit dramatic about stuff, anyway one week, this was in October, i didnt rlly text her because i was rlly busy, i was hanging out with my school friends and stuff, and i wanna say she could of text me and i would of responded, maybe not right away but i would of told her i was a bit busy if she had asked, but no, one of our friends told us she was upset that i hadnt been texting her and that i should, yk so i did, and she didnt respond, then she left our performing arts gc (with our friends in it from there) so i asked her why and two days later she responded saying she felt she didnt fit it, and at this point i was kinda sick of this drama so i was by choice not gonna text her for a few days and take care of myself, then one day while at school she send me a fucking video (like a capcut edit) basically calling me and my friends from theatre bad friends, and saying i need to send it to them, anyway i didnt and we told the woman that owns our company, and btw my mum knew the whole time, from when she started acting strange, and my mum was saying to the woman that owned the company, that she will call the poice if needed and if it has been sent out and posted (the video had my face in it), then she text me calling my mum stupid and calling me stupid so i blocked her, and after that i told her we are not friends and to leave me alone, then in December i repeated we are not friends but im not sitting here being pissed anymore so like forget about the shit and move on BUT WE ARE NOT FRIENDS, anyway this bs has been dragged on for like 5-6 months and she fucking keeps harassing me to the point ive had to block her on all platforms. anyway yeh :)

Could you do one with the double Charles learning that their s/o is a member of a kpop group like you did for the P5 ?
I really like your writing, keep it up 💖
as usual, Phipps takes these things better than Grey XD
I did the S/O as female since that was what the first request had, hopefully that's ok
and thank you!! I have a lot of fun writing here <3
Hm, that’s… different, is that the word he wants? That is most assuredly different. On the one hand, he’s obviously theatrical himself and so he has, once in a while, attended musical shows and concerts in halls and what have you. On the other hand, well, it’s not the same as knowing that one’s lover is a regular performer at concerts like that. She’s a bit… famous, perhaps? Other people are looking at her with the same eye that he does, the ‘you are very attractive and I am drawn in by you’ eye, so he’s not exactly sure how to feel about that. Aside from the fact that he doesn’t really like it, of course. The idea that she performs for others, dresses so that people will look at her, and is probably singing songs about love — he almost hates to admit it, but it makes him a little jealous. He’s more insecure than he wants people to think, so he’s actually anxious that she’s putting her beauty on full display and singing about romance. Mightn’t that give people the wrong idea… the idea that she’s available? He’ll fight for her honor if she needs him to, no bones about that. It takes him a little while to settle into accepting it, though he eventually does. If he ever expresses his insecurities about it, her earnest reminder that she thinks about him every second while she’s singing about love helps a lot. It’s really not so bad, is it?
Aah… he always knew she was a creative type, so this isn’t really all that surprising to him. On the surface, it might seem like he’s rather indifferent to the whole thing. That’s just how he is in general, however, not easily shocked and, unlike his friend, doesn’t let his emotions run away. Of course, it depends on exactly how he finds out. If she tells him, invites him to a performance? He’ll simply take it all in, maybe with the smallest hint of a smile on his face for half a second. If he just happens to find out by seeing the performance whilst investigating or some such? His eyes will go wide for a moment as his mind processes that… his partner is up on stage, dressed in a way that (for the era) is not an insignificant amount of provocative, dancing and singing something probably at least mildly suggestive. That would be what stuns him for a bit, because he didn’t expect it, whereas if she tells him, he’s expecting it. Still, he won’t make too much of a deal of it either way. He can appreciate the artistry behind the music and choreographed moves, and… that’s about it. But, after he finds out, his beloved may notice that she usually sees him in the crowd during her concerts. … What can he say? He likes to be supportive. Also, she’s very pretty.

i need to be dramatic and cringe and corny as fuck and talk about cena and how i'm unwell. promise not to bully me? okay cool
like. idk. i don't want to be a lil debbie downer or anything, because i rlly don't think this was the last round for him, and he's gonna come back and get his revenge and fuck up solo. but like i Do Not Like It And He Is Scaring Me. and i know that this is the way of the world, it's the nature of the business, he's getting older, he can't be around forever, blahblahblahblah but i don't care 😵💫 i need them to stop hamming it up and making such a big deal about us not knowing how much longer we have with him because i just. bro i cannot do it for real
john is the first wrestler i ever connected with on my own, without my parents' influence. i was a kid during his peak, he was my superhero, he was the one who incited wrestlepocalypse I. he is THEE reason i truly fell in love with wrestling, and why i still care about it just as much, all these years later. he's always been the greatest of all time to me, and i've just been waiting for everyone else to catch up and appreciate him. and now everyone does, and i'm ecstatic, but it's bittersweet because i know that part of the reason why is because we are in the twilight of his career. he knows it, and we know it. and i don't know what to do about that, like, emotionally
when i thought taker was retiring after wm32, i cried four separate times at school, and i'm Not A Crier. like 😭 and he didn't even retire that time he stuck around like five more years but it did not matter to me bc i thought he was finished and i love him and i wasn't ready for him to go. i'm never ready for any wrestlers to go, to that end, and i prefer when they do so a little more quietly because then i never actually have to confront the reality. it's easier to never hear the words officially.
like i will shut up now. but like. i cannot watch john go. and i'm gonna have to. because that's life. and i feel like i'm pre-grieving the end of a professional wrestler's career rn but i can't fuckin help myself, especially when they're PLAYING IT UP ON PURPOSE BECAUSE THEY HATE ME SPECIFICALLY AND WANT ME DEADDDDD OR SOMETHINGGGG IDK
tldr i'm emo and i love cena more than almost anybody else that has ever set foot in that ring and i'm a big ol' baby who can't take change even when i'm being actively prepped for it. and when it does actually happen i'd advise everyone to look away because it's gonna be SO ugly over here 🫠🫠🫠 i love him i love him i love him i love him i love him
