here's the 44th installment for this week's @galladrabbles prompt: i lose, to watch you win by @energievie
catch up/read in full HERE -- updates weekly! [ read scenes one & two in their entirety ON AO3 ]
- - - - -
Ian leans in again, pressing his lips to Mickey’s in a peck that lingers too long on the pull back.
Suddenly, a woman pushing a stroller passes on their right, her tiny tot giggling at a volume that pulls both of their attention; their limbs a flurry as they step back—the Southside having shaped them both.
This is part where Mickey’d clam up, take space, push away, but those demons are suspiciously silent, replaced with foolish notions of love and grandeur. Like he’d lose, just to watch Ian win.
He blushes, straightening his spine. “Alright, alright, I’m fucking starving.”

The last shameless season is a complete parody of what it once was. People will give themselves a headache trying to make it make sense. The writers didn’t take anything to account when writing it. that’s why if they HAD to do certain plots our meta and headcanon trump their writing because they left so many unfulfilled answers and then moved on never to be spoken about again. You HAVE to meta lol. I haven’t given most of these plots much thought either, I understand people’s want to fix it even years later though. I thought the together things was dumb, so i tossed out it and said “nope not my Gallavich” and moved on. It wasn’t the same show as it use to be so i think that’s allowed to form your own conclusions. Especially when it’s one off plots like your asks have said.
yea totally. Meta is necessary to make sense of a poorly written show. I think it’s up to the person to decide what they think of all these things. if they wanna ignore small plot points that’s cool and if they’d prefer to look at meta/headcanons to help explain stuff then that’s cool too. I tend to look more at meta to explain it rather than ignoring but oftentimes I’ll be like ‘look there’s no explanation for this other than poor writing’ and look at headcanons and fix-it fics instead (Ian after Terry died hello!!!). this threesome plot is just one that I don’t feel the need to ignore but I rly hardly think about it in general haha.
Wait did I give the impression that I didn’t think this?? I thought I was pretty clear that I think it’s up to the person what they wanna believe lol.
I love meta and I’ve read so many that I think perfectly encapsulates a storyline/character and I’ve written meta myself, I just don’t agree with people acting like their own meta or analysis is bible lol. If someone posts a meta about what a character is thinking then people can take that as canon if they want but also no one is obligated to agree with them because it’s their interpretation. Like, I’ve just seen many posts where people are like “you can’t think x about this character because they were y” and get mad when people disagree because they act like their analysis is canon, and not just their own interpretation. Like people can take their own meta and see it as canon (I do it myself), I’m just saying they can’t get pissed if someone else doesn’t, because it’s their interpretation. If that makes sense?
Obviously there are exceptions. Like someone saying Svetlana was the villain in 3x06 is just wrong and can’t be explained away under “that’s just my opinion” type of thing. Like it’s not, that’s just harmful. I just mean, in general and within reason, people can choose to believe what they want.
also, out of all the plots, this “together” plot rly isn’t one I’ve given much thought to at all lol. I was talking more about how I thought Mickey is more in touch with his sexuality outside of Ian than some people think he is, I wasn’t acc thinking about this plot until anons brought it up lol but it’s been fun to talk about.
#mickey milkovich#shameless#gallavich#ian gallagher#idk if i’m making sense#i cant sense the tone of this ask lol#did I seem like I thought everyone had to think a certain way about it or something#bc that goes against everything I post about on here lol#rly I’m talking about some s6 meta I’ve read where people act like they know exactly what Ian is thinking#bc they say he was so often thinking of Mickey#but that’s just their interpretation. not everyone’s. but they act like their interpretation is canon

So I have a question. Since you're working in the medical field have you ever thought about writing a Hospital!AU for Gallavich where they are doctors or nurses or interns?
That has never once crossed my mind. The last time I wrote something even vaguely medical was when I was pre-med and in a completely different fandom. I'm pretty convinced that clinicians who write medical fiction, especially romance, are either retired or somehow have enough distance from medicine to appreciate the entertainment value of it again.
Medicine is just not sexy right now. I crawl home from work and I don't want to think about it again until my phone inevitably rings two hours later. Plus my specialty is Communicable Disease--the least sexy of the unsexy. The horrors mine eyes have seen.
When Covid and Monkey Pox aren't hogging the stage, HIV and related STIs are the long running stars of my professional show. There's a reason all my fics promote condom usage until all the necessary hoops have been jumped through (normalize safe and sane sex in fics, everybody).
I'm sure sexy, inspiring stuff is happening somewhere, but I have yet to see it. You want to know the "sexiest" thing to happen to me because of my job in recent memory?
Picture this: Sicily, 1845 (no, not really)
Me (dead asleep at 5am when my phone rings): snxlor? Patient (nervous but determined): Heyyyy, Doc, it's Patient X! Hope I didn't wake you! Me (face down in pillow, still dead): snuffleprff? Pt: Sooo, I was wondering if it was okay to maybe...do it again? Me (struggling to remember patient and circumstances): Hmm? Pt: Ahem, you know...you said to wait until everything had cleared up, and Joe Grind and I were wondering... Me (finally catching on): Is he there right now? Pt: Yes, he's in the far corner of the room, crossing his legs. Me: Am I on speaker? (No, Doc) You feel comfortable having this convo with him there? (Yes) Do you want and feel ready to have sex too? (Yes [horny radiation causes my phone to burn in my hand]) *sigh* Have you completed your entire course of treatment? All the pills, creams, pessaries, what have you? (Yes!) Have all your symptoms cleared? (Yes!!!) Are you sure? Any itching, burning, rash, ulcers, unusual discharge etc. etc.? (Omg, no already!) He had received his prophylactic treatment and did his blood tests, right? (YES!!!) ... ... ... Fine, vaya con dios. Pt: (happy squeal, sound of dude cartwheeling across the room before phone abruptly goes dead). Me (tries to sleep only for my alarm to go off): %$*&#@!!!!
Tl,dr: Nahhhh...
#I'm not in the headspace for it#writing#good question#asks#maybe someday?#maybe if I was a surgeon it would be sexy

hmm have your pick or answer all 3! 🥰
fiona gallagher landlord or debbie-does-it-all plot line?
frank x liam or frank x carl?
gallavich early seasons or later seasons?
Bri bby! 🥰🥰🌺
oof these are some tough ones, but Imma try and answer them all!
Landlord Fiona or Debbie-does-it-all
I will have to go with Debbie on this one. I think it was nice to see a plot line at all for Debbie FINALLY, but most importantly one that weirdly made sense for her. she’s always been the creative, and resourceful one when it came to making money, so to see her kinda going back to her s1 roots was nice—I really enjoyed it! Landlord Fiona I didn’t mind it that much but I think the writers just ruined it lmao though I loved the resolution in the end. so like…it started out promising, went downhill, and then ended with a bang eheh
Frank x Liam or Frank x Carl
I’m not gonna lie, this was tough! I don’t know if this is controversial tbh but I used to love Frank and Carl’s relationship. like Frank is still an asshole and yada yada yada but it was that weird, Gallagheresque bonding that made me laugh, and smile. but I gotta go with Frank and Liam—dang, I loved their bond so much! I think it stems from my undying love of Liam as a stand-alone character, like that dude is the best so I knew it’d be hard for Frank to treat him that badly. I love the contrast between their personalities, how they’re almost polar opposite of each other—whereas Frank and Carl were mostly on the same page, or rather Frank got Carl on his page eventually lmao but Liam stayed himself, with his beliefs, and values and Frank still stuck around him. that’s why I like them so much :)
Early seasons Gallavich or Later seasons Gallavich
Bri… this is like asking me if I’d rather spend a day on a beautiful beach or eat my favorite ice cream—why can’t I do both?!? Now… don’t get me wrong, I LOVE ADORE them being a thing, an item—and don’t even get me started on them being husbands. It’s actually the best thing ever and just thinking about it makes me emotional. with that said, the earlier seasons’ dynamics are what made me fall in love with them in the first place so I gotta go with them. they have this vibe, and energy that just keeps you glued to the screen from the first to the last scene, you wanna know more, you want more from them!! like you wanna punch these two clueless assholes and hug them at the same time.
It’s especially early seasons Mickey that does it for me. to be fair I have the biggest, most embarrassing crush on him so I might be highly biased eheh but I think that the juxtaposition of his personality clashing with the things he says/does with and for Ian… it’s perfect. and it’s not even those grand gestures we get to see later on in the series, I’m talking about those small things Mickey does that completely contradict what he said/did in previous scenes. it’s those subtle ways we see him fall in love with Ian despite his fears, and the way we end up falling in love with Mickey at the same time Ian’s falling in love with him because of them. it’s just magical!
sorry this was so long sdnsisnsi but it was so much fun!! let me know your thoughts hun 🥰🥰💙

THE WEDDING POST!!!!!!!
Okay, I have now watched the episode in full like 8 times and it has been absorbed into my bloodstream and I feel stable enough to finally comment on it. For the most part I loved it and it delivered nearly everything that I wanted, even if it was delivered differently than I hoped for/imagined. There were definitely some missed opportunities I thought, but there really was nothing that I outright hated and I was pleasantly surprised for the majority of the episode. Here are some random thoughts as I was watching:
- I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Lip chewing gum is hot as fuck
- I knew I was in for a special episode when Ian showed up in a towel followed shortly by Mickey in a towel. They have been hiding Mickey’s thicc sixpack all season and unveiled it here as wedding gift to the viewers.
- Cam’s line reading of “Mickey” when Liam asked who was going to wear white, sweet baby jesus. Why does it always sound so good coming out of his mouth?
- I love all the brother scenes. Carl clipping his toenails, Ian griping and then Carl wiping them on the floor was hilarious. Although considering it was his room, what does Ian care? But I love that he did. Very anal (no pun intended) big brother vibe there. Liam hightailing it out of the room the second Mickey walked in and headed toward Ian was a mood. The shit this poor boy has seen.
- I also loved everyone asking Ian about his meds, especially Carl. That really got to me for some reason, as did everyone giving the reason that it was going to be a stressful day. Like they weren’t asking to be assholes, they were just concerned and wanted him to have a good day. Little did they know how stressful. I liked that Ian didn’t get made, but you could still sense a tiny bit of annoyance.
- My second notice that this would be a different kind of episode was Mickey asking if Ian took his meds and then touching him gently under the chin and saying “good” in a very, very deep and low voice. Um....holy shit that was beyond sexy to me for some reason. Like I almost felt like I was intruding. The way Ian’s eyes were fixed seemingly on his chest/tattoo and then the way Mickey forced him to look up at him. Wow. Ahem.
- Ian obviously thought it was sexy as fuck too because he yanked him by the hips and grunted and pulled him in for some more caresses. So yeah, this was a lot different than the “hey what’s up bro?” scenes we had been getting. I mean there wasn’t a tongue kiss, but I appreciated it. I also appreciated that Mickey and Ian had no problem not only seeing each other before the wedding but showering together and messing around too. Poor Carl, he needs to take not of Liam’s reaction.
- Along these sexy lines, there is no way that anyone should find the violent biting/hitting scenes sexy. Like no way that Ian saying “you gonna make me hit you again?” and manhandling Mickey’s wrists to the ground and saying “you done?” in a softer voice while straddling him and then throwing the gun to Carl and telling him to get the cuffs, was sexy. And it definitely wasn’t sexy that Mickey finally calmed down and looked right into Ian’s eyes and nodded. Like, no way, we shouldn’t be romanticizing that shit. Okay? Ok. Ahem. Ha Ha 😅
- I could not survive Kev’s keg boot camp, but I will take his comment about Depeche Mode-loving Gen Xers” as a personal shout out because I put their song “Somebody” at the very top of my Gallavich playlist. It is the cheesiest, sappiest song known to man and my girlfriends and I would play it on repeat and get weepy in high school. And it fits Ian and Mickey perfectly and even out cheeses that Ed Sheeran song. See Gen X can do more than irony.
- Obviously I loved Mickey’s handcuffed speech, but I wish that there had been a reference to that terrible cursed episode in season 3. Not the rape, but the fact that Terry forced Mickey to marry a woman and that it basically ruined their lives and set Ian and Mickey on a destructive course. Nearly everything that they went through started with that terrible day. It was definitely subtly reference and I definitely think that Ian was thinking of it, but I wish it had been stated more clearly.
- I love that Sandy was wiling to go to jail to get Mickey his wedding. I love that Debbie was possibly willing to marry Mickey to get him his wedding as well. I definitely loved all of the Gallaghers rallying around to help.
- The tie scene was beyond cute and this was the kind of scene we have been waiting for and both Cam and Noel delivered. I love how sincere Mickey was in this episode and how straightforward and reverent this conversation was. The kid conversation, Ian telling Mickey exactly what he wants and Mickey revising his statement in response. It was a perfect statement and this scene was so intimate. I truly didn’t think we would get this before the wedding so I’m thrilled that we did.
- Why does everyone keep referencing the combination of Mickey and Ian’s genes? Do they know where babies come from? Have they read too many Mpregs?
- I loved the shot of them first arriving and the mention of the chairs. Mickey’s “I like how the gold captures the light” made me giddy. Then the long shot of them sort of taking in their surroundings and the impact of the day. The other shot I liked was them at the alter with a bit of the “deer in the headlights” look. You got me John Wells, you sneaky bastard.
- I loved everything about Kevin this episode even if it is beyond tacky to propose at someone else’s wedding.
- I had to mute the Gay Jesus crows singing “We Shall Overcome” because ugh and cringe, but Ian having a cult at his disposal may come in handy someday. I hope he thanked them and let them glory in his presence for a little bit. I also liked that Carl and Geneva were so familiar with one another. Lol.
- All of Ian’s interactions with his siblings were perfect. I wanted but didn’t get a scene of Ian asking Lip to be best man and also a best man speech (or any speech for that matter) but the “soft motherfucker” scene was adorable and very moving. I love that the only person besides Mickey that we have every seen Ian say ILY to was Lip. That is pretty appropriate and the kisses were sweet too. I, too, am a soft motherfucker and that swell of music to At Last got me.
- I liked how nervous Mickey was walking down the aisle, and I was happy that Sandy was there for him. But I sort of felt that him walking down the aisle on someone’s arm was a little too “bride” for me and I think I would have preferred to see him walk down the aisle by himself while grinning and walking his patented BDE Mickey walk. But his solemnity and serious was an unexpected choice and I appreciate them going with it.
- FRANK!!!! Oh my god that’s where my tears started. I was really hoping for a Frank/Ian scene but his tears will have to do. Wow, I just wish that Ian could have seen them. The utter disdain the two have for one another usually makes me laugh, but it felt wrong to me in this episode, at least from Frank’s side, so I was glad that it seemed that Frank’s emotion got the better of him. I definitely think that the spectre of Monica had something to do with it, but it was there.
- SPEAKING OF MONICA...wahhhhh! My favorite scene I think. It is no surprise that it comes when Ian is watching Frank and is sitting next to Debbie. I”ve already said this before but Debbie was the perfect person for Ian to talk to about this. I love how Ian still calls Monica “mom” and Debbie still called her Monica. And she was right, Monica would have loved everything about that day. Emma Kinney did a remarkable job in that scene, and she looked beautiful. The chemistry of the actors was palpable and it was just so nice to see. I also loved Ian’s slight laugh as he felt himself tearing up and then his choked voice as he said he should dance with his husband. Waahhh. Followed by Debbie’s sweet, sweet smile and then Ian finding Mickey, who had been dancing adorably and looking around for his boy. Then the way that Ian clung to him and collapsed into him, while the perfect and cheesy song played. WAHHHHH!!!
- Also can we give it for Debbie yet again. Not only did she miss the ceremony in order to save the day, but she missed Franny walking down the aisle. That is commitment and sacrifice and we appreciate it!
-I had hoped for personal vows, but I am at least glad that they recited them and didn’t just say “I do.” Once again, Mickey’s earnestness and seriousness surprised and delighted me,
- I loved Ian grabbing Carl on his walk down the aisle. As I mentioned, every scene of Ian and his siblings was character appropriate and I loved this one too.
- Them having 120 people at the wedding was kind of dumb and ridiculous, but I did appreciate how true to life the variety of outfits was at such an event. From ripped jeans to gold lame dresses LOL.
- That last scene of them was cute too. The hand holding, the nudity, the TATTOO again and Ian’s hand hovering near it. Mickey caressing and pinching Ian’s arm, their TWO rings, the hideous room and their tired, happy, sleepy voices. Perfection. I don’t love how Terry’s murderous rage is somewhat played for laughs, but I admit that I did kind of chuckle at their expressions when they heard the tires screech and then the last shot of them looking at one another while the jaunty music cut in. It was very, very, very much like a rom-com.
So there was a lot to absolutely love this episode, but there were a few missed opportunities as well. I mentioned the lack of personal vows/family speeches and lack of any significant Frank/Ian interaction, but other than that the only thing that really bothered me was the lack of any Fiona or Mandy mention. That was actually a huge missed statement and it would have been easy to do. I find it more believable that Fiona would miss the wedding than Mandy, but to not mention either of them was a bad move, IMO. I liked Sandy and the role she played, but she doesn’t make me forget Mandy, show. And the lack of Fiona mention just makes me think JW was being petty toward ER. But beyond that, THEY ARE MARRIED AND HAPPY AND SUPPORTED BY A LOT OF PEOPLE!!! HALLELUJAH AND PRAISE GAY JESUS!!!

Have you guys started thinking about your works for Gallavich Week yet?
In case you missed it, here are the themes for this year. Also, there’ll be another one later in the year, most likely October.
Here are the dates and themes for GW2017A:
May 28 - AUs (general)
May 29 - Times when Ian and Mickey had each other’s back
May 30 - Alternate S7 ending
May 31 - Together/Married/Happy Ending/Domestic (I’ve combined these because they were alike and had a very similar number of votes)
June 01 - Gallavich as parents
June 02 - Alternate first meetings
June 03 - Others finding out about them
Reminding you that there is no need to be on Tumblr or to sign-up for this event. More rules and guidelines are under the Read More. Please make sure to read it before sending questions. Questions whose answers are clear in the guidelines will be ignored (I’m sorry, but ain’t nobody got time for that).
What is Gallavich Week?
Gallavich Week is a week dedicated especially to Ian x Mickey fan work. Each day has a different theme, and people will post their works according to the theme of the day.
When is it?
This year it’s from May 28 to June 03. This will be GW2017A. There will be a second one later in the year.
What are the themes?
May 28 - AUs (general)
May 29 - Times when Ian and Mickey had each other’s back
May 30 - Alternate S7 ending
May 31 - Together/Married/Happy Ending/Domestic
June 01 - Gallavich as parents
June 02 - Alternate first meetings
June 03 - Others finding out about them
How do I participate?
You don’t have to subscribe to anything or announce what you’re doing, you just have to post your work on the appropriate day and tag it gw2017A. It’s important that you tag it exactly like this (don’t forget the A so that I won’t get it confused later on) and that it is one of your first FIVE tags. The other tags can be as you wish, but if you don’t include gw2017A in your first five tags, I won’t see it and, therefore, won’t reblog it for everyone else to see it. If you wish to, you can also tag it day1, day2, and so on, separately.
What type of works are accepted?
Any kind of original fan work is accepted, including, but not limited to, fanart, fanfiction (no minimum words required), graphics, gifs and gifsets, videos and fanmixes.
When can I start posting?
I’ll always post one starting post for each day, at 12am GMT (check here when that is for you). After that, post away!
Can I still participate even if I don’t have a Tumblr account?
Absolutely! Just submit something here.
Can I post something that I created before?
No, sorry. The works should have been created specifically for GW. You can, however, create a sequel or a different version of a previous work.
Can I post something that is not in English?
Of course. Just make sure that it is original or that you have the original author’s permission (and, in that case, link to the original too).
Can I make R rated works?
Yes, just please give the necessary warnings and tells us the rate in the very beginning of the post. If the post is visual (like a fanart or a gifset), it would be nice for you to also tag it NSFW.
Can I post something AU?
Of course! There are specific days for AUs, but feel free to post them on other days as well.
Can I post supernatural works, mpreg and genderbent?
Yes! But if it’s a fic, please include it in the warnings.
Can I post more than one work?
Definitely! The more, the merrier. You can post as many works as you want, in as many categories as you want, being it one post per category or ten in the same category, it’s all fine.
Can I post in more than one day? Do I have to make something for each day?
Again, the more, the merrier! You can post in only one or in all days, as you wish!
Can I make one work that fits two or more themes?
Sure thing. I only ask that you post it on the day of the last theme included. For example, if you are posting a work that includes the theme from Day 1 and the theme from Day 4, post it on day 4 (just make sure to tell us that it includes both).
Can I make a multi-chaptered fanfiction?
Yes, and you don’t have to post everything either. When you do, just be sure to include either a masterpost, or the links to the previous chapters in the beginning.
Can I include other characters/pairings in my work?
Yes, as long as Gallavich is still the focus. It’s also nice to let people know what other pairings are included.
What if I can’t finish on time?
The Gallavich fandom is ALWAYS happy to see new fan material, so just post it when you’re done and tag it accordingly, ok? Oh, and the same goes for if you can’t finish a work on the assigned date, you can still post it later, just make it clear which day it was made for.
Is there a contest?
No. It was an idea once, but most people didn’t want it and felt a bit intimidated by it.
