'our exes are dating' damie AU part 2
post directory
em: jamies like, sitting w her head in her hands wearing big stompy boots and flannel going god dani our exes are dating. we’re Stereotypes (danis like well. i will hold my tongue about the outfit but technically their exes are also dating)
obsetress: "what about my outfit?" "nothing baby, you look very cute”
obsetress: ok but dani and jamie finding out rebecca and vi are dating and jamie's immediately calling owen like "mate."
em: i am so thinking of making the bly manor au version of The Chart from the l word
em: owens like who haven’t u dated at this point n jamies like oi (quietly) u know i get nervous around girls
em: owen we can’t ALL be Married to hannah grose
obsetress: jamie can't stand vi most of the time like you said but she definitely had a drunken one night stand with perdita
obsetress: they were both young and lonely and had something to prove
obsetress: ok but imagine vi and rebecca are having some holiday party at their fancy ass apartment and dani and jamie are showing up and perdita is there and viola's like "dani, you remember my sister. jamie, this is–– jamie? perdi? are you okay?”
obsetress: perdita pulling vi aside later and hissing "that's her! that... jamie, that's her" "who?" "that... that girl i told you about, vi, the one who––" "the one who insisted on buying you breakfast but then never called you back?" “yes"
em: jamie......
obsetress: she wants to be so nice and so soft but then…
obsetress: also they stayed over at perdi's and she was sober enough the next morning to realize what a trust fund baby flat looks like
em: jamie viola acquaintances to enemies to. nope still enemies
jamie: dunno what the fuss was about. not like i stole anything
dani: sorry what
dani: why would you even think... did you?
jamie: what? don’t be ridiculous.
jamie: i cut that shit out years ago
obsetress: in vi and rebecca's lavishly furnished guest bedroom later that night…
dani, whispering: we could, you know
jamie, half asleep next to her: wot
dani: steal something. they wouldn't miss it
jamie: dani, we can't just––
dani: that print over there is nice though, isn't it?
dani: would look nicer at ours
em: the most illegal thing dani has done is smoke a joint so she’s READY
obsetress: she is ITCHING obsetress: anyway they absolutely take it and the next time vi and rebecca come to theirs for "a quaint, country weekend" viola doesn't even notice, but rebecca squints at it for a minute
em: sjhfjsh,afasf
obsetress: be gay, do crime -dani clayton, probably
obsetress: new crack headcanon: dani always trying to rope jamie into doing benign little gay crimes with her
obsetress: smoking a joint, stealing vi and rebecca's print, stealing owen's veggies
em: jamies like babe u know i’ve. been to prison right. i don’t really want to- and danis like no i only mean SMALL crimes
em: Funny Crimes
em: jamies like oh well actually i love fucking with viola i’m in
obsetress: the only thing that could convince jamie
obsetress: jamie's like "what if we replace viola's green tea with that silly detox green tea" and dani is just like
obsetress: "i see you trying and i love you so much for that"
em: i am wheezing at ‘what if we gave viola laxatives’
dani: she has a delicate constitution she’d know Immediately
jamie: (eating some suspiciously old leftovers) rich people are fucked
em: jamie: i’m gonna rearrange her books
obsetress: dani visibly cringes
obsetress: ”don't tell me that's gonna bother you too" "i–– nO"
em: full on greenhouse scene pphht. no?!
obsetress: flashback to: dani and viola rearranging her library for fun on a rainy day
em: jamie: i’m gonna buy cleanskin wine and put expensive labels on it
dani: now THATS funny
obsetress: full on jamie taylor bootlegging operation
[later edit: cleanskin wine is an Australian/New Zealand term for cheap unlabelled wine.]
obsetress: jamie: look, dani, you went from bootlicker to bootlegger
dani: hey!
em: relabelling garbage wine for fun and profit
em: viola does that wine sniffing thing and she’s like mm. do i detect some notes of willow. a lovely cultivar and damie are trying. so hard not to lose it
obsetress: rebecca side eying the two of them
obsetress: what is friendship if not just exes fucking with each other
em: so true bestie
obsetress: omg final thought before i ptfo on the book rearranging
obsetress: when they were together dani def suggested to vi that she organize her shelves by color and viola just stared at her in horror
obsetress: ”i know americans are illiterate dani, but really?" "and i know the british are notorious snobs, but seriously?"
obsetress: (it is not as toxic as it sounds. they're mostly just snarking at each other and end up kissing against a bookcase like half a minute later)
obsetress: and just. imagine how happy viola is when rebecca moves in with her massive collection of russian poetry volumes and automatically just starts slotting them in in alphabetical order by author's last name
obsetress: vs. at dani and jamie's where jamie just leaves books where she leaves them and lets dani take care of the rest
em: at mike don’t worry we will meaningfully flesh out ur side characters
audacity: anyway I'm slipping away from work for 1 minute to say leftist jamie and liberal vi still lives in my head rent fucking free thanks to y'all because it's literally—
audacity: i am kindly asking it to stay In My Head
em: ‘liberal vs leftist ding ding ding round one fight’ has been RUNNING around my head
em: viola saying landlords provide a valuable service wrt housing and resources and dani has to HOLD jamie back
audacity: vi: capitalism is an important aspect of our society since it provides much-needed inspiration for the working class—
obsetress: five times jamie and viola got into a fight at their standing damvibecca biweekly dinner and one time they didn’t
---[bonus:]---
em: i wanna believe jamie and viola realise they both have an incredibly niche interest in common, and jamie HATES this (violas like oh ho ho i have charmed this jamie taylor, she absolutely has not) but i can’t figure out what the fuck the interest would be
em: maybe maybe some intersection of storytelling and folklore and ghost stories but i cannot figure it out
obsetress: jamie hates it but suddenly she’s been talking to viola about rural hauntings in northern england and viola’s been talking to her about rural hauntings in southern england and two hours have gone by
em: dani: it’s nice to see you guys get along :)
jamie: ……… >:/
