Nancy + outfits ✿ Season 4 Edition

[flythesail]

Maybe I'm biased because it's my favorite lol, but Nancy Drew feels like a miracle of a show. They manage to get two 18 episode seasons before the downfall of that episode count. They get an EARLY renewal for s4 while most other cw shows are canceled, which feels against all odds when s3 was premiering on Fridays. (It's called the death slot for a reason.) Of course, they're still canceled while making s4 - which is bad timing so close to wrapping. But by chance, a phone call over scheduling lets them know of the cancelation just in time to write a finale fit for the series ending. The most popular and important ship of the show started as a crackship - that phone call gives them a happy ending. It also gives us as close as they can get to confirming a last name-less character as a Hardy Boy - a running thing we all *knew* but didn't *know* ever since the show started. They do it all with a cw budget too - get creative with practical effects and costumes/makeup for the supernatural creatures. (Which always looked so great! The sin eater went viral with millions of views!)

And that's not even getting into everything else that makes Nancy Drew unique. I've never seen a writers' room so willing to chat with fans, whether it be analysis or silly stuff or sharing playlists. That popular ship's first kiss had a montage, as inspired by all the edits fans make. A song included in s4 was used in a fan video a writer watched and loved so much she wanted the song in her episode. When the lead actress could no longer share emoji clues (a unique and fun new episode tradition!), a director/producer willingly took over because he cares about the fans too.

Like !!?!? I'm gonna miss it.

okay guys, can i get your recommendations for media to check out if you’re missing lockwood and co? can be because the vibes, the characters, the ships, the worldbuilding, anything about it gives you the same feel as l&co! i want to put together a little master post of things people can check out to fill the l&co hole in their lives while we keep fighting for s2 and it’s always fun to find new books/films/shows!

Hello internet friends! Just a general announcement that this year I am once again participating in @fandomtrumpshate.

What is Fandom Trumps Hate (FTH), you may ask? Well it's an online auction of fanworks that generates donations to progressive nonprofits working to protect marginalized people. For probably obvious reasons, FTH began in the immediate aftermath of the 2016 US Presidential Election, and over the course of the last 8 years has raised over $300,000 for a range of amazing organizations.

You could make it $300,005.

How?

Bid on me! Well not ME, a story by me. You win, you make a donation to any one of the numerous good causes featured this year, and, in appreciation, I write you a bespoke story in the fandom of your choice*.

Easy peasy, make a difference squeezey.

Click here to visit my specific auction page where you can find out more and, if you so choose, bid.

Or you want something else, you can click here to search the tags for any fandom or creator you like!

Bids start at $5 and auction bidding closes at 8pm ET on Saturday, March 1st.

Fandom trumps hate, and creation is love. So let's make something. ❤️ - Aurora

*By "fandom of your choice" I mean one I have written for before, which you can find a list of here, unless we talk about it first.

Questions? Let me know by sending an ask or a message!

THIS WEEK’S EPISODE OF NXTB (Next X-Treme Tumblr Blorbo)

NANCY DREW AND THE “HARDY BOYS”

Previously, current NXTB Women's North American Champion Nancy Drew (Nancy Drew series) rebuffed a challenge from Franziska von Karma (Ace Attorney) for the title. While Franziska scrambles to earn herself a shot at the title, Nancy has been mainly sitting on the sidelines, enjoying her title reign.

During this episode of NXTB, Nancy is approached by her old acquaintances Frank and Joe Hardy aka The Hardy Boys. Frank says they’re facing off against the team of Count Olaf and Hook-Handed Man (A Series of Unfortunate Events) and would like Nancy to accompany them to the ring as their one-time manager.

Nancy says…

I’m not obsessed with a ship right now and it’s lowkey killing me. Like this special little part of me that talks about fanfics with people and writes is empty and I miss her :(

🚨🚨🚨 NACE IS IN THE NYT CROSSWORD THIS IS NOT A DRILL 🚨🚨🚨

[burningblake]

I just became aware that there's a nancy drew book which is a prequel to the series and I started reading it and Nancy visits the Claw at some point and I'M SORRY BUT THIS FUCKING HAPPENS?! ->

Like I had zero expectations about seeing the Drew Crew and then I read this and my soul left my body :') This is a moment in a canon book and Nancy has just seen Ace and she is talking about how much she misses George 😭😭😭

[nsuyeula]

Ace embodied wet little meow meow this episode

[drawinhearts]

It hurts to think about the fact we only have three episodes left and then that’s it. I’m really going to miss this show.

there has never been a time when I didn't want to know your name

Ace/Nancy, 4,500 words (oneshot). Rated E.

Cold. That was the first thing Ace felt—a damp chill that knifed through his shirt in the dark. He blinked, brow furrowed, and the room slowly came into focus. Dim light filtered through the papered-over windows, revealing an empty, high-ceilinged room with deteriorating cardboard boxes shoved against one wall. “Clock’s cursed,” Nancy said from his right, slowly pushing herself up off the floor. Nancy grimaced and pointed to the old-fashioned mantle clock lying on the floor between where they’d both woken up. Ace couldn’t hide his sigh. “Of course it is,” he muttered.

(Just a little time-travel au where Nancy and Ace go back to a few months before the Death Curse.)
