Felicity, 22

“I’m wearing a Zara button up, Maje tie, Adidas shorts, and my mom’s old Cole Haan loafers. I’m inspired by certain colors that I like to match or combine in an outfit. I try to go for looks that have both elegant and laid-back elements. I am a fashion designer and I sew a lot, so I’m attracted to clothing based off of the way the fabric feels.”

[doll-collector-by-day]

I went to an estate sale near me today, based on a single picture that showed me that they might have Susannah (Felicity's doll) and Clara (Samantha's doll)

I came home with this:

I'm not sure if the original owner had Speaking Rain's doll or if I overlooked it, but she had all 6 of the original glass eyed dolls, and most importantly, all the rest of the girls' dolls.

I wasn't planning on buying my Christmas gift all in one place, but I couldn't pass up the chance!

Susannah has a tiny chip on her chin but also she actually has wooden legs that move AND I DID NOT KNOW THIS? It never actually sank in that she's really made of wood! She was $2.

Nina looks almost exactly like the one of the wiki, other than the slant of her eyes. She was $15 because someone knew she was American Girl.

Sari is beautiful and I need to get out my other one so I can compare her. She had no price so they charged me $2. Kirsten had been holding her (I'm so sorry I had to separate you two :( ) but I was not going to pay $125 for each of the 18 inch dolls.

Ida Bean was my holy shit if dreams come true wish and now I have her?!?!? She is the best surprise of all. She had no price but instead of charging me $2, the lady looked over at some racist "Mammy" teapot another lady was buying, decided she was slightly more valuable and charged me $5. (I would have paid $25 but whatever).

Clara was snagged so fast. She's not the original version, but her face is matte compared to the one on the wiki.

Amelia was (unfortunately) in a case with GI Joes so they charged $25 for her. I almost lost her hat when they handed her over to me. :(

Molly's nurse doll was tucked over in a different case and I almost missed her. Her little hat kept trying to fall off and I can't wait to show her to my daughter because she was really excited for Molly to get a doll when we read the books.

Other than Kaya missing a button, the mini dolls are all there. Sending out amazing finds energy to everyone, because I surely did not deserve this much.

(f, g, h)

ego, smau: never underestimate a woman's self-esteem, it might end up wounding you more than it would her.

jenson button (jb22)

the mr. darcy type, smau: much like the popular love interest, jenson should have known better than to say things that wouldn't impress a woman he grew interested in. OR ada abbott made sure that he worked hard for her time and attention. (f)

affection, blurb: in which, jenson learned that he should just say it without being a little too drunk.

pierre gasly (pg10)

newsflash, smau: ensley soleil doesn’t like playboys. too bad, pierre gasly’s down bad for her (attention and love). (f, g, h)

lowkey, smau: fans thought that pierre moved on from ensley four months after publicly declaring his (love?) for her. funnily enough... (f, g, h)

indigo, chatfic + smau: there's really no reason for pierre gasly to be jealous over some man that ensley wrote 'high school in jakarta' about. not when she wrote one or more songs about the frenchman. (f)

high school in jakarta, fic: meeting ensley’s close friends would also mean that he’d have to meet her high school sweetheart, who he believed he couldn’t compete against until ensley ensured that his two-day attendance wouldn’t be spoiled by some guy who couldn’t let go of some memories she couldn’t even remember. 

dancing with the devil, smau: ensley soleil doesn't care about what people are saying about her relationship with pierre especially now that she's married to him. (f)

where the bad girls are (kpop idol!ofc)

lifted, smau: lewis is married to a kpop idol who happened to be one of the girls to shape the image of female groups in the korean pop community.

melody series (x ofc)

summary: with her sharp eyes focused on her audience, a burlesque performer who went under the name of melody returned to rythme romantique, an entertainment lounge which exclusively caters to the wealthiest people of monaco — or in this case, to the people with a status that are recognized by all. her three exclusive performances were meant to be a closure for her connections in the principality. still, a certain formula one driver saw it as an opportunity to reconnect with his former flame after two years of her absence. felicity vos learned that this was a rich man’s world and that he could do whatever he wanted, but she also realized that the agreement they settled on years ago was corrupted the moment he expressed his love for her. 

one, million dollar man: monaco was a world of glitz and glamour that she left two years ago. returning to the principality clearly was a huge mistake as she found herself talking to the man who swore to nothing but his love for her.

two, this is what makes us girls: "decorum isn't something you can buy with money or fame." or what did lewis really want from her and why did he show up on the second night of her performance?

charles leclerc (cl16)

of long lines and names, fic: five kids with (almost) five names under six years. OR the three pregnancies that charles had witnessed told him how motherhood and memories could come in two sets of twins and a boy that looked so much like him. (f)

esteban ocon (eo31)

(f, g, h)

the royal resemblance, smau: albertine ocon lived to give her estranged family something to talk about because of her physical appearance that could be confused with her mother's ghost. too bad, ditty ocon was born into the world with the same heart attack-inducing features.

kimi raikkonen (kr7)

stop the world i wanna get off with you, smau: vera 'coppa' coppola-raikkonen is the only one who can make the iceman talk a lot. she's also the only one who can make the chatty versions of him as their three older children (romania, rooney and johann-lauri) make their presence known to the racing community. (f, g, h)

daniel ricciardo (dr3)

lance stroll (ls18)

yuki tsunoda (yt22)

line without a hook, smau: pia ellis misses her mystery bf that everyone thought to be her delusions. it turns out he's a formula one driver who definitely misses her too.

max verstappen (mv1)

to loathe and to love series (x ofc) (wip)

summary: there is a massive difference between the two words, but sylvie was more than willing to blur out the line if it means for her to spend some time with what others called her soulmate, max verstappen.

one, it’s time to go: sylvie attended a christmas party and couldn’t seem to do what she normally did on the paddock: avoid max (a)

two, closure: her memories haunted her so much that the red bull team principal thought of her to be incompetent, so it was only ideal of max to face the music too. (a)

three, goodnight n go: she wasn't sure what was more surprising: toto's presence on her graduation celebration or max's expensive graduation gifts. (f)

four, gorgeous: there's nothing more satisfying than seeing christian horner own up to his own mistake. that, and max's office-warming gift that he dropped off in sylvie's new on-site office.

five, cinema: sylvie was left feeling unsure when she and max did things that friends normally wouldn't do after she was broken up with by another man. (hc, mc, s)

six, satellite: max verstappen might've avoided talking about what they had done before all of this, but he was certain he wouldn't get out of his way just to ignore her as he swore not to her one way or another ever again. (a, hc)

seven, mean: sylvie found herself with a million and a half pounds and winning against the boys who brought her racing career to an early end.

eight, long story short: they're friends, they said. they bought a house and adopted a dog together, they definitely did.

nine, mastermind: max wasn't going to admit that he was jealous. he wasn't going to tell her that he sabotaged her blind date, either. not that she didn't know.

ten, comfort crowd: ah yes, the first monday of may. when everyone speculated that sylvie was merely using him and when she finally admitted to missing him for the past four years.

eleven, matilda: they don't know much, maybe, but they know how they'll raise their children away from the toxicity that they grew up in, all thanks to their fathers who did nothing but set expectations. (hc)

extra: matilda volume two, smau: set years after the tltl series in which sylvie and max have the most adorable set of kids called emilia, lila and maximilian. (f)

to loathe and to love: extras (x ofc)

lost in japan, smau: just two lost souls (with a tour guide) travelling to japan to make up for the childhood they missed. (f)

sebastian vettel (sv5)

crazy rich wife, smau: everyone (some twitter account) wonders where the recently retired german driver had gone to after the 2022 season. thank god for bel vettel, his fans now know that he’s still alive and is being spoiled and pampered by his wife. (f, g)

sweet spoiled husband (+ son), smau: mick schumacher is a grown man that both bel and seb treat like their own child. (f, g)

sweet spoiled schatzi, smau: bel and seb introduce the newest addition to their little family, and mick seems to love kimi vettel as much as a godfather loves his godchild. (f)

sweet little similarities, smau: bel and everyone could tell that kimi vettel was becoming more like his father, sebastian's, carbon copy as days went on. (f, g, h)

sebastian and sons (and soufflés), fic: day in the life of a retired sebastian vettel, featuring his kids kimi and barbie (and a nervous mick). (f)

toto wolff

colour me your colour series (x ofc) (wip)

summary: tilly marie nearly loses faith in her passion as she refuses to listen to everyone who told her to quit. everyone but one. and it’s the man she met years ago at a racing event she didn’t want to attend. who would have thought that her father’s partial ownership of three brands could take her to the zone of Mercedes and meet the love of her life?

one, what a beautiful sight that was: it was 2006 and she wanted nothing but to finish her research paper. their curiosity led them to a fifteen minute conversation that they would need to continue eight years after. (g)

two, tilly marie wants to go to hell: it's 2014 and she attended the british gp as a communication liaison for red bull. she didn't know that the man she met years ago was the team principal of mercedes, the rival team that her best friend drives for. lewis hamilton was more than amused to see her flustered, if you were to ask him. (g)

three, juliet's hit list: how can one give the heart eyes? daniel and lewis found tilly and toto flirting behind the cameras and behind the press audience and decided to mess with them. (g)

four, fast lane but not the race weekend kind: daniel and lewis might as well be attending a sleepover if they keep asking tilly about her relationship with toto. (g)

five, how to romance and cry in the same day: tilly goes on a date with toto for the first time and learns about her father's intention to pass ownership to her. (a, f, g)

six, love on camera: tilly and toto have a bad habit of flirting not so subtly.

seven, age is just a number and love is just a shame: tilly, while she believed her mother was right about the age difference between her and a certain mercedes team principal, is sure that she isn't falling fast and hard for him.

colour me your colour: extras (x ofc)

the paddock's resident it girl, smau: besides from owning three of mercedes' competitors in the track and being the mercedes team principal's wife, she's also known as the cool girl of the paddock for her taste in fashion and husband. (f)

the paddock's lucky husband, smau: with him being spoon-fed with love from his children and wife, toto really couldn't ask for more. OR tilly wolff liked to talk about fashion but her family? she might as well write a whole book about them. (f)

the paddock's resident menace and the dame, smau: tilly wolff was presented with a damehood and her daughter tia, the girl who tends to act on her mischievous way (all thanks to toto), celebrated her 7th birthday during the silverstone gp week. fans recall her best moments in sky sports and media overall.

f1 drivers (general)

9 to 5 series (x characters) (spin-off of cmyc and rush)

summary: lorelei hester ‘lester’ alessandro is a bassist first and daniel ricciardo's partner second. but it seems like another role is added to her resume as she begins her weekend in baku as toto wolff’s children’s babysitter.

the original five and the playlist

one, baby names and text messages: lester receives a text message from an unknown number, only for her to offer max verstappen's seat to her boyfriend.

two, max's lowered iq and linkedin profiles: max tries to defend himself as he experiences the morning wrath of lester.

three, the most toto coded children: toto gets ready for the baku weekend by styling his daughter's hair and thinking that he could just stay at home and talk business with his kids.

four, papa, soren and tia's promise hug: lester's more worried that she'll mess up her duties and upset the father of the two wolff cubs.

five, the little weapons of destruction distraction: the first half of her babysitting day consisted of reading too much, learning the word 'accident' and daniel ricciardo being a bad influence on toto wolff's shy son.

A Clockwork Mirror

Written for Vamptober prompt number 6 (yes, I'm doing them out of order)

Vampire who can't thrall your mind, but can thrall your body. It is approximately 1900 words long, or about 3 pages. It contains: Implied Violence Power Imbalance Dom/Sub Dynamics Dolls! Please enjoy!

~

Great tapestries adorned the walls of the Dollmaker's home, each depicting scenes of service and humility, as one might expect from the products of dolls. Felicity stared at them as she and her Master were led through the impressive estate, wondering how long it must have taken to create so many, and how many dolls were dedicated to the task. Perhaps they were fast with a needle.

She glanced past her Master's shoulder, at the doll who escorted them. They were fascinating creatures, but they made Felicity uneasy. There was something uncanny about them, she thought, in the way they moved, the way their faces could emote only so much within the limits of their artificial construction. And there was the question of how artificial they really were. One could, as a vampire (or near enough), detect the vital essence, the life within any given doll. Was it all magic, or...? It gave her goosebumps.

The doll stopped at a closed door, and gently knocked. The voice of the Dollmaker came from within.

“Yes, my dear?”

“The Lady Marie Hartley, and,” the briefest of hesitations in the doll's response, “companion to see you, Mistress.”

Felicity tried not to smirk. How indeed, to introduce your guest's thrall?

“Very good, show her in.”

The doll pulled the door open and held it for the Lady. Marie did not look back at Felicity, but only gave a mental command as she strode through the door:

Stay here. Behave.

And so Felicity found herself alone with the doll. She stuck her hands in the pockets of her trousers, and looked the thing up and down. White porcelain and lacquered wood beneath an absurdly frilly dress that made a halfhearted attempt to evoke a maid's uniform. Hands clasped at its waist. A head of auburn hair. Felicity wondered if it was real hair.

“Mistress' honored guest may wait in the parlor, if she wishes,” the thing spoke, its glass eyes respectfully downcast.

“Sure,” Felicity said. Master had said to stay, but Felicity didn't think she'd mind.

“This way.” The doll turned on its heel and led her down another corridor, past several more dolls busy with their own tasks, and through a larger set of double doors. The parlor contained a massive fireplace, currently glowing with a few meager embers, and a collection of luxurious chairs all arranged facing each other. Felicity dropped herself heavily into one of them. A grandfather clock sat against the wall ahead of her, ticking away.

“Would Mistress' honored guest like any refreshments?” The doll had taken up position to her left, near the wall. Felicity chewed on her lip while she stared at it. Something in her wanted to test this thing's limits.

“Call me Felix,” she finally said.

The doll seemed to consider that for a moment.

“Would Felix like any refreshments?”

“No, she would not.”

The doll gave the slightest of bows, and went silent. Felicity continued to stare while undoing the top button of her shirt. It was stuffy in here.

“Do you have a name?” she asked.

“This one does not have a name,” the doll stared straight ahead while it answered.

“What does your Mistress call you, then?”

“'My dear.'”

“What do the other dolls call you?”

“'That one.'”

“Fuck's sake,” Felicity said under her breath. She started rolling up her sleeves, trying to think of some way to push the doll's buttons. Assuming it had any. An idea came to her.

“Did you used to have a name?”

The doll hesitated.

Aha, I've hit on something! Felicity thought with some excitement.

“This one... does not understand the question.”

Felicity frowned.

“Before you were a doll, did you have a name?”

A longer pause.

“This one does not know.”

“So you weren't always a doll, then?” she prodded.

“This one does not know.” And yet there was a look on the doll's face of... concern? Confusion, maybe?

“You can't remember? From before you were made?” This could be so juicy, if she could just pry a little something out of the doll's clockwork mind.

“This one... this one...”

Yes, yes, think those existential thoughts for me, you creepy little bastard. Felicity leaned forward excitedly, ready for the revelation. The moment dragged on, the only sound the ticking of the grandfather clock.

“This one does not think Mistress would like it answering these questions,” the doll finally answered, its tone more certain. It gave a little smile, as if it was satisfied that it had resolved the conundrum.

Felicity grunted in frustration, and relaxed back into her chair. She put her chin into her hand.

“How boring.”

“This one apologizes.”

“Shut up!” Felicity snapped. The doll went dutifully silent. She hated talking to these things. Hated being here, surrounded by them. Perfect little clockwork slaves, is what they were, toiling away without a thought in their empty, porcelain heads. She didn't know why, but they made her angry.

“You're so pathetic, it makes me sick. Mistress this, Mistress that. You can't even think without your Mistress! Can't do anything! What good are you, eh?” She glared at the doll, but it remained silent. “Well?”

“May this one speak now?”

“Yes!”

“Does Felix not also have a Mistress?”

Felicity's stomach tied itself in a knot, and she shot to her feet.

“It's not the same thing at all! What do you know! Master- my Lady doesn't...” she stumbled, unsure what she intended to say.

“Is this one mistaken? This one apologizes, it believed you were Lady Hartley's thrall.”

“I am!” Felicity said with instinctual pride, “But we're nothing alike!” She started pacing back and forth, glowering at the doll all the while. “You think you have even a tenth of the pride and strength of a vampire?”

“Felix is not a vampire,” the doll said bluntly.

Felicity balled her fists and bit her lip hard. She felt unexpected tears sting the back of her eyes.

“And you're not even a person!” she shot back.

“That is correct,” the doll said with perfect serenity. It only made Felicity angrier.

“Such a perfect little clockwork cunt! So satisfied with being a soulless toy for Mistress.” Felicity stepped towards the doll, stood less than a foot from it. “What if I made you my toy, huh? Would you be my personal marionette?”

The doll looked oddly pained. Felicity's heart danced at the sight.

“This one is meant for Mistress. This one can only serve Mistress.”

“'This one,'” Felicity mocked, “won't have a choice,” and she projected her will through her eyes, throwing all of her borrowed power at the poor thing.

Only it did nothing. When she tried to clamp her psychic hands around the doll's mind, they merely slipped off and grasped at nothing. She tried again, staring into the glass orbs that passed for a doll's eyes. All she got for it was a glimpse of her own reflection. Was the thing protected, or was there nothing there to control in the first place? Felicity couldn't tell.

The doll was staring back at her quizzically. It seemed to sense that something had transpired.

“This one can only serve Mistress,” it repeated, “This one's mind is Hers.”

Felicity fumed.

“I don't need to control your mind,” she grabbed the doll's arms, “I have strength. Real strength.”

She forced the doll backwards, shoving it into the wall with a hard thump. One of the dollmade tapestries swayed above them, this one showing a doll defending its Mistress from a faceless assailant.

“My Lady gives me power,” she said through gritted teeth. “Power enough to handle a toy like you.”

The doll went very still. Felicity breathed hard, angry breaths. The ticking of the clock seemed very loud to her now. There was something within the doll that also ticked in time with the clock, she could feel it through the thing's limbs.

“I could tear open that piece of pottery you call a body,” she slid her hand down the doll's unyielding chest plate and took a hold of the front of its dress, “Have a look at whatever makes you tick.”

The doll shook in a way that must approximate a shiver. Felicity felt her outburst of rage dissipating with the simple pleasure of physical domination.

“Take pieces out, one by one,” her voice dropped to a hostile whisper, “To see how long you can keep tic tic ticking away,” said in time with the clock. Their faces were nearly touching. “How long you could keep defying me with your body bare, open to me. Broken.”

She began to pull on her fistful of dress, slowly, anticipating how it would tear open and reveal what was underneath. But in that moment, Felicity's entire body froze, locking her in position. Even her breathing stopped. She felt the familiar touch of her Master's mind.

“My, my,” Lady Marie's voice sounded from Felicity's left, but she couldn't turn to look at her, “Making trouble with the dolls, are we?”

Felicity made a strained groan in response, unable to to control her vocal chords, and only barely able to make her own lungs push air out. She heard her Master's footsteps approaching.

“Did I not tell you to behave, young lady?”

Control of her body returned to Felicity, and she immediately felt blood rush into her face, and her limbs shake. She released the doll, and spun to face her Master, head down, hands clasped in supplication.

“F-f-forgive me, Master, I didn't mean to... that is, I wasn't, uh...”

“Wasn't obeying me,” there was ice in Lady Marie's voice.

Felicity nodded. She bit down on her lip again, her head swimming with the force of her Master's disappointment.

“You will apologize to our host.”

Felicity glanced up, and realized to her horror that the Dollmaker was also there, standing with arms crossed, eyeing her. Felicity fell to her knees.

“Begging your pardon, my lady. I... I am deeply regretful, and beg your mercy.”

The Dollmaker looked her doll up and down, and then back to Felicity.

“Your apology is accepted.”

Felicity let out the breath she had been holding, “My lady is merciful.”

But I shall not be, Lady Marie's voice sounded in Felicity's mind. Her Master would wait until they had returned home to punish her. Felicity shuddered.

“I shall be taking tea with the good Dollmaker,” Lady Marie said aloud, “You shall wait outside.”

“Yes, Master.”

Master and Mistress strode away together. Felicity was again alone with the doll. She glanced at it, shame making her ears turn red. The doll stared back, unphased.

“This one must apologize again. It did not mean to insult Felix. It will walk you to the door.”

Felicity got shakily to her feet. She remained silent all the way to the door.

-

“Did she damage the doll at all?” Lady Marie asked as her glass was filled with bloodwine by a kitchen doll.

“No, not at all,” replied the Dollmaker after a sip of her own, more mundane, drink, “In fact, I rather think it enjoyed itself.”

“Oh?” Lady Marie mulled that over. “Could she have harmed it?”

The Dollmaker smiled.

“Perhaps. If it were amenable to the idea.”

“And if it were not?”

“I rather think the poor girl would have more than just a bruised ego.”

FORMULA One ace Fernando Alonso spent all night testing a stunning new model... and ended up coming second.

The supercharged Spaniard drove foxy Felicity Jaine wild in a marathon romp just hours before racing at Silverstone.

But when Fernando, 25, had to perform on the race track the next day he had nothing left in the tank.

"His stamina in bed blew my mind — he could literally go on for hours," said Felicity, 24.

"I wasn't looking at a watch, but at one point we'd been doing it for so long I considered stopping because my thighs were aching so much."

Felicity also revealed how the pocket hunk insists on wearing ‘lucky' Y-fronts for every race. And he should have kept them on that night—because he was beaten in the 2005 Grand Prix.

"When he got out of the car he shook his head at me, then gave me a knowing look," said Felicity.

"For Fernando the only place to finish is first and I knew he blamed our non-stop love-making the night before. But he thought the sex was worth it."

The relationship lasted two months but just three weeks ago the driver, now dating a Spanish pop star, texted Felicity asking her to join him at his hotel in Woking — near his McClaren Mercedes team's HQ.

Then he invited her back to his place in Oxfordshire—and things started to move up a gear. "We were in the back while his Spanish mates were in the front and we snogged the whole way home," Felicity giggled. "I remember having really sore lips because of his stubble.

"Fernando was getting really turned on. He undid my shirt and slipped his hands underneath my pink Topshop bra. His friends were sat just inches away in the front seat and that was pretty sexy.

"I never expected him to be like that because he was so polite and reserved. But on that back seat he said goodbye to all manners.

"At one point, I was leaning against the door and he was laid down on his front between my legs.

"He tugged down the zip on my jeans and kissed the bit of skin above my knickers, just below my belly button. It was very sensual. We only kissed, but if the journey had been longer, more would definitely have gone on."

"All I could hear was his soft panting as he unbuttoned my shirt, unhooked my bra then pulled down my jeans. Sex with him was never animalistic—there was no ripping off of clothes. Everything was romantic and loving."

And Felicity admitted: "I'm usually a wildcat in bed, but because he was so sensitive I held back a bit. I didn't want to scare him off.

"I was nervous sleeping with him for the first time. When I was younger I'd read my dad's Grand Prix magazine and wonder how girls got drivers as boyfriends.

"Suddenly that was me. I thought, ‘Bloody hell, I'm in bed with Alonso'. It was like a dream." World champ Fernando, favourite to win today's race on home territory, also likes taking risks in bed. Felicity explained: "Once, his friends were in the other room and in the morning we had sex with the door open. Fernando loved the fact he could be spotted at any moment. He was dangerous like that and that turned me on."

His physique also left her in awe. "Fernando's short, about 5ft 6ins, but he's built like a muscle machine.

But the language barrier was a problem at times. "He'd say, ‘There's so much that I want to say to you but I can't translate them'. That frustrated me so much so I tried to teach him as much English as I could.

One time I asked him what he thinks about when he drives. He said, ‘The next corner ...but when I'm on a straight I think about you'."

During their months together, Fernando introduced Felicity to his dad, Jose Luis, but she never met his mum, Ana—a woman the multi-millionaire ace secretly thinks is a jinx.

"When he was at the Hungarian Grand Prix, Fernando told me that his mum was going to be there and he wasn't happy," said Felicity.

"He told me she's bad luck." And he was right—he finished 11th.

Fernando dumped Felicity and is now with singer Raquel del Rosario— but three weeks ago came the text asking Felicity to visit his hotel.

She refused. "Part of me wanted to but I didn't want to make it easy for him," she said. "He really hurt me."

In fact, if she had to do the same again...she wouldn't, Fernando.

🗺️ for Wilmon! Bonus points for background Felice/Sara, bonus bonus points if Felice is the one throwing Wille’s bachelor party. Please and thanks lol

Your wish is my (late) command! Read on Ao3 here.

‘To Wille and Simon!’ Felice toasts with a fierce grin. The crowd gathered echoes back the sentiment, Simon gathers Wilhelm by the waist as he nuzzles into his chest embarrassed. ‘Why are you embarrassed? This is to celebrate you.’ Sara asks, arms folded over her chest as she lazily sips champagne. She's a little wobbly on her feet, the fizz got to her quickly. ‘I’m just having flashbacks to state dinners where I feel like I'm being eaten alive,’ Wille retorts. Simon chuckles and kisses Wille’s forehead. Felice finishes chatting with some guests and storms over to the trio. ‘Sara, you need to get people on the dancefloor.’ she commands through a gritted smile. Sara rolls her eyes before tending to the guests. ‘So is this the bachelor party you dreamed of boys?’ Simon and Wille knew they didn't want separate parties, it seemed like an unnecessary expense and they had the same friends anyways. Felice was the first person they thought of to organise, knowing she'd pay attention to all the details and Sara could help curb her spending. The boys smile at each other and then back to Felice. ‘It’s perfect honestly, thank you for everything.’ Wille breaks from Simon’s hold and pulls Felice in a tight hug. ‘Well, the best is yet to come Wille!’ Felice winks at Simon and wanders off amongst the guests. Wille looks at Simon quizzically. ‘What are you up to?’ Simon shrugs with a smug smile. ‘Don’t know what you mean…’ Wille tugs Simon in close by his collar, his mouth hovering close to Simon’s. ‘I have ways of making you talk, Eriksson.’ Wille speaks in a low voice and Simon shivers. He breaks his stare, looking around. ‘Nobody’s paying attention to us… We could wander off and they wouldn't even know.’ Wille whispers in Simon’s ear. Simon’s face flushes as he takes Wille’s hand and hotfoots it out the room. *15 minutes later* ‘Where are they? Simon was supposed to sing! I've got the choir lined up.’ Felice snips at Sara who is using the wall to help stay up. Sara shrugs her shoulders, Felice legs out a long sigh before striding out of the room, all fake smiles. She passes the kitchen which smells of the most divine chocolate cake. She's about to turn off to another corridor when she hears a crash to the right. She slowly turns around. The sight is something to behold. She wants to scream but she bursts out laughing. Wille is on the floor, his fly undone and hair sufficiently unstyled. On top of him, Simon’s bowtie is undone, his shirt buttons half undone, his entire demeanour undone. On them and around them are toilet rolls, clothes and other cleaning supplies. The boys look up at Felice like two lost deer. ‘I thought you two got out the closet years ago…’ Felice said with a smug grin, making the boys’ panicked gazes crack into fits of giggles.

You know I had to ask

Felicity and Elizabeth’s gala gowns would be perfectly fine if they just switched girls. In the 18th century wealth was always displayed conspicuously but wearing clothes with more lace, more ruffles, more ruffles, and more jewels. The idea of “less is more” and “good taste” only came along after the industrial revolution, when suddenly you didn’t have to be a titled landowner to be extremely wealthy. Being over-the-top and grandiose was expected. Elizabeth’s family would have dressed her in the fussier dress because it would have reflected well back on them.

That being said, looking more closely at the dress, they’re still pretty accurate, they just need more brocade:

While wearing jewelry was pretty rare, it was popular to adorn stomachers with brooches and jeweled buttons when you were being fancy.

This particular set of buttons were made of opaline glass paste and came with matching jewelry:

(The Victoria & Albert Museum)

Paste was a cheaper alternative to jewels for the not-super-rich, but it still required fine metals like gold or silver. Jeweled buttons were also a popular accessory on men’s waistcoats and jackets, so a sensible middle-class girl like Felicity could have gotten some brass and garnet paste buttons from her father’s fine coat to adorn her dress.

the mysterious grey market clothes are here! alas, i do not have these items in my collection already, so I can’t do any direct comparisons. additionally, the tags were cut out of both pieces, though i will still show the stubs in case they’re of interest to someone.

first, kirsten’s robe.

based on pictures i’ve seen online, both the red plaid and the blue floral collar fabric seem dead on in terms of pattern. it’s hard to tell fabric type from pictures, but they at least look right. the best way i can describe them as someone who doesn’t know fabrics, is they are similar in weight and texture to those pre-cut quilting variety packs michael’s has, and they also kinda feel like the fabric of a bandana? off the top of my head, I can’t think of any ag item I’ve felt that had a similar fabric.

the most notable detail here to me is that the buttons are wrong, though that could mean nothing lol. the buttons are meant to be black and also a different type of button. on top of this, you might notice the top button missing - it was attached so poorly it came off as i was opening the robe (i’ll have to reattach it later).

overall, im relatively sure this was made at least with the same fabric as the original robe. im not sure whether the buttons were changed at some point during the original production of the robe, and I can’t think of a reason AG would change them so drastically for a relaunch. im on the fence about whether this was just in storage somewhere or whether it was recently made.

next, sam’s base birthday dress.

friends who have this outfit officially - is the fabric really slippery and shiny??? it does not have the texture i was expecting at ALL haha. it’s a very similar texture to felicity’s blue christmas gown (but shinier). if that’s not normal, i am leaning towards this being just made off a pattern. i know there’s a tag stub but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything lol.

if the fabric IS accurate, im 99% sure this was just in storage somewhere. the velcro is all wrong for modern AG (hence why i included a shot of the velcro inside).

in conclusion: i still have no idea what’s going on here. nonetheless, im quite glad i was able to add a version of these items for my collection for a good price, whether they are the official versions or not. im especially pleased with kirsten’s robe, which has some absolutely wild secondhand prices.

thank you all for joining me on this wild journey!

HELP! A shot in the dark here but I’m looking for an old Olicity fanfic I read years ago on ao3 and of course, I can’t remember the title or author 😤 all I remember is a one particular scene ..

Felicity has been injured and oliver is patching her up and given her some painkillers. Felicity decides to take a bit too many and ends up a little overheated and delirious so Oliver leads her to the shower to cool down and she decides to start stripping and get up in his face while he tries so hard to remain a “gentleman”, which he does, then she pretty much passes out. I believe that was the end of a chapter and in the next one, she didn’t remember what she had done and Oliver plays along??

I know it’s not much but any help would be much appreciated as something about this authors writing has obviously stuck with me as I’ve tried searching for it since I read it. Clearly hadn’t discovered the download or bookmark buttons back then😭😂

Thank you xx
