thoughts on t*sp
look. at first i told myself that i wasn’t gonna watch this show, and then the very next day it got leaked so i was like “you know what? im gonna watch it anyway!” and thats the worst decision that ive ever made in my life because this show was... bad. could it have been worse? definitely, given the fact that it was an emma frost show based on a philippa gregory book. but this was still terrible enough for me to type this post up, so here we go!
i can guarantee you that you’ll have a more fun time reading this post than you will watching TSP. this is under a read more because.. whew.. theres a lot.
THE CASTING
first and foremost: the actress playing KOA cannot act. she’s really pretty, granted, but her acting was genuinely terrible. like.. i cringed almost every time there was a scene terrible. not only was her spanish accent bad but she felt so.. stiff, i guess would be a good word, whenever she said something. and that didn’t do anything to help the fact that she has a bad case of ScarJo Fever™ (if you don’t know what that is: it’s when an actor/actress only makes the same three facial expressions) people need to stop hiring actresses and actors just because they’re attractive and actually make sure that they can act. at this point, i am Begging!
the actor playing harry was actually good though, at least in my opinion. he did his best with what he was given and i really admire that! you can tell that he was putting a lot of effort into it, even though the way that they wrote him was really out of character for that period of his life (see: this post)
h7′s actor was good in the scenes that he was in, but the way that they treated h7 was so.. weird? they didn’t make him as creepy as i thought that they were going to when i first found out they were making an adaptation of TCP, but there was still this lowkey creepy vibe that he had going on.. i honestly dont know how to explain it, but it was there. also he slapped the shit out of harry in a scene??? that was messy as HELL
the actress for margaret beaufort was good, but there were some scenes that just had me like.. oh? on god? (most notably the death scene, but i’ll get into that hot mess later) you could tell that she was trying hard, even if they made MB’s character arc terrible.
the actors that played lina and her love interest were amazing, though. they worked with what they had and i really liked what they did with them even though the writing was shit. the scene with their wedding was adorable and really well acted!
angus imrie (arthur) was good, too! but the wig that they gave him? atrocious. i’m going to see it in my nightmares. georgie henley was really good in the scenes that we saw her in as meg tudor, but most of the scenes she was in weren’t that good and that’s wack :’)
i don’t know the name of the actress that played juana of castile in the episode she was in, but i liked her acting, too.. even though the writing for her was kind of cringy.
before i end this section i should let it be known that i was more attached to juana, meg and arthur in the few episodes they were in than i was to KOA during the entire show. it’s so tragic like. how are you going to cast a lead actress that cant act?? Hello???
before i get into the issues with the writing and creative direction i have with the show, i just wanna say: the pacing of the show was terrible and really, really difficult to follow. the entirety of the second episode, which followed from their KOA/arthur marriage to arthur’s death, probably had the worst pacing. it felt like only a few weeks had passed in the show’s time, when it was supposed to be what? six months? and there was so indication of a timeskip between episode 6 and episode 7, even though juana was still in england at the end of episode 6 and h7 died about 10 minutes into episode 7? it’s so tragic.
okay, moving on!
THE CREATIVE DIRECTION
look. i get that it’s a show and of course there’s going to be historical license but... GOD this show went above and beyond.
there’s so much i want to say here, but the most important one that i have an issue with is the shit that they did with lina’s character. erasing the fact that she was a slave owned by ferdinand and isabella and then later given to KOA was absolutely terrible. and then not only did they do that AND make her KOA’s most loyal lady-in-waiting, but they erased the fact that she was forced to convert to christianity, forced to stop using her birth name and instead having to use the name of her new owner in the name of #StrongFemaleFriendships. disgusting!
EF: lina is KOA’s most faithful servant and they have a strong female friendship!! hashtag woke!! hashtag feminism!! my black ass:
Tumblr media
honestly it gets even worse because KOA and lina’s “central female friendship” was barely even there. lina had more scenes with rosa, one of KOA’s other ladies-in-waiting, than she did with KOA. not to mention that KOA was manipulative to lina and kept saying stuff like “you owe me service” or stuff along those lines? it was so shitty. lina sweetie im so sorry that this ugly ass bitch would even try you
the next big thing that i had a problem with was the fact that they aged up harry, when in reality he was about 11 years old when KOA first came to england. like, i can’t really go that much into it because even thinking about the fact that they aged him up to make him Arthur’s Hotter, All-Around-Better Brother™ when he was fucking 11 makes me kinda sick but. ughh it was terrible.
not to mention the fact that they villainized margaret beaufort because of course they did. apparently you cant be a middle aged woman without being villainized?? especially not in an emma frost show. but the way that they villainized her was so ugly. and the fact that they attributed shit like edmund dudley’s execution to her when it happened an entire year after she died? Hello????
the way that she just took over and declared herself regent when h7 was in mourning for elizabeth of york and kicked KOA out of the palace + the way she tried to threaten margaret pole & lina into revealing that KOA wasn’t a virgin.. shgkhhgsfhgkshjbjsjb that shit was so fucking messy its like they tried to make her a fusion of mother gothel from tangled and ursula from the little mermaid
the way that they made EoY dislike KOA was so weird? and the way that both her and margaret beaufort assaulted her by kissing and groping her respectively was weird and definitely uncalled for.
this is a minor one in the gist of some of the other things but why did they make EoY’s last daughter a stillborn child? someone correct me if i’m wrong, but didn’t she live for about a week before she died? but then again, i remember that she named their daughter after KOA, so they probably did that to avoid the fact because they made EoY hate her. messy
arthur’s wig counts as a creative decision right? well whoever gave him that wig needs to be fired. PERIOD
arthur’s wig:
Tumblr media
me:
Tumblr media
whoever did meg tudor’s costumes also needs to be fired tbfh they were so bad. what did she ever do to yall
THE WRITING
i guess that writing can go into the creative direction category as well, but there were so many problems with the writing that it deserves its own category
KOA was so terrible in this. between her manipulating harry and lina, and the fact that she kept defending the fact that isabella abused juana because “our mother was a queen, a warrior” was ugly! “tO bE qUeEn oF eNgLaNd iS mY dEsTiNy” girl if you don’t shut ya mouth catching these hands is gonna be your destiny
they also made KOA put all of her faith in the fact that she was related to queens? like, every time juana said she couldn’t do something because her husband + ferdinand are assholes, or every time isabella was brought up she kept being like “but you’re/she’s a queen!” it was irritating
all of the predictions about the great matter/KOA not being able to give harry a son were weird. i would have been fine if it had only been like.. one time, because sometimes foreshadowing can be good, but it was brought up every 5 seconds and at the most random times. like when EoY was literally dying in childbirth?? Hello????? god are you there??
AND THE FACT THAT EOY STRAIGHT UP WENT TO HELL AND SAW HER BROTHER GETTING EXECUTED THEN CAME BACK. HELLO??
then when margaret beaufort was about to die and she saw ghosts? and jasper tudor showed up to take her to hell i guess? honestly i didnt know what the fuck was going on but that shit was so fucking messy and wild. i have to laugh
also: i mentioned this earlier but all of those scenes where harry was ranting and raging.. EF really saw the name “henry viii” and floored it with that huh
they also dumbed harry down imho.. Wack!
juana seducing harry was a hot ass mess in its own right, but honestly? juana and harry had more chemistry in that one minute scene than KOA and harry had in the entire show
we were not even 10 minutes into the pilot and they were already trying to portray isabella as a #WokeFeministQueen. how, you might ask? why, by showing her leading a group of men to kill black muslims for their faith, of course! didn’t you know that being racist and islamophobic is hip and feminist when you’re a queen?
like i get that its from KOA’s point of view but in the opening monologue of the pilot they mentioned that isabella overthrew the moors like it was a #Feminist thing to do and not a part of her orchestrating massacres and contributing to genocide? @ EF: on GOD??
tbh? shocked that KKKristopher KKKolonizer wasn’t mentioned in a positive light based on how much they tried to glorify isabella. like what catholic monarchs stan was allowed to work on this show with EF and P. Gregory?? hello????
i’m totally fine with the whole plot point about katherine lying about her virginity, since we’ll probably never know the truth about whether or not she and arthur consummated their marriage, but it was poorly executed in both the writing and in CH’s acting. i could tell that she was lying and so did.. almost everyone, really.
the scene where they were about to.. i guess lynch lina’s love interest for “stealing” made me really uncomfortable. i dont even know how to explain it
h7′s death scene.... this is all i have to say about it
margaret beaufort ordering the execution of edmund dudley was shitty for a lot of reasons but honestly him screaming “fuck you all to hell” was hilarious
the ending scene of episode 7 where they were in the chapel and henry asked KOA if she was still a virgin was bad writing and CH’s acting made it even worse. cant even lie convincingly smh
margaret pole’s plotline was so confusing.. i barely knew wtf was going on with her the entire show? it all felt so rushed and forced. it was weird
EoY and h7 had some cute scenes together though. and that was like.. one of the shows only real redeeming qualities
that’s about it for this post about TSP! my overall rating for it is a 0.5/10. it was super shitty, but i liked arthur, juana and meg tudor so it gets a 0.5 instead of a plain 0. and apparently theres one episode left too.. DREADING it. anyways: emma frost absolutely failed in her goal to be like “its not all about anne boleyn!” because if anything this show made me think about how claire foy and natalie dormer were both robbed of awards so.. if reading this post gave you hives? go watch wolf hall or the tudors for their great performances!
thanks for reading! :)

hey,... you think youve got any more of those adhd moritz hcs.....
Of Course!!! this is gonna be a mess bc my ?? adhd ass cant be bothered to try 2 be organized/coherent atm.
First thing is first: he collects drink tabs because he, Ernst, and Ilse are making a dragon sculpture and are using the tabs as scales. This has nothing to do with him having ADHD, I was just looking back @ my last post to avoid repeats and I forgot to put why he’s collecting them and you all needed to know this tbfh. He’s supplying the majority of the tabs. Ernst is horrified when he realizes How Many Of These Tabs are from Moritz. 
Moving on:
He loves slime !! His fave thing to do with it is squish it between his fingers
He’s really bad about that whole “eating” thing,, he doesnt realize hes hungry because hes hyperfocused on something and often forgets to actually eat because ?? who has time 4 that 
He knows he can’t remember anything so he tries to write everything down 
he often loses whatever paper the info is on 
sometimes he cant read his own handwriting 
he forgets he wrote something down At All and finds the info accidentally when its no longer useful and “oh shit”
he forgets to Actually write the thing down so ?? that shit is Gone
hes a mess basically. but i love and support him. 
he can have a lot of trouble following group convos irl, theres too much going on 
he prefers to talk to one or two ppl off to the side or do his own thing and just ?? enjoy being With his friends 
sometimes ppl try to pull him into group convos that he C ant keep up with and hes just like “huh” because what the fuck is going on 
that being said: there are also times where he Thrives in group convos, loves the amount of shit going on, is rly engaged and loving it 
hes very anti fidget spinner. like,, he didnt mind them at first (and lowkey wanted one) but melchior was One Of Those Assholes who were obnoxious and disruptive and annoying with them so moritz cant stand the sound they make 
he hears them and wants 2 grab them and throw them Away 
he did this to melchior once. just. snatched it out of his hands and chucked it out the window. because Impulse Control Whom?
he felt so bad but everyone applauded. and it was quiet for once. and he was relieved. 
he has problems with Volume Control and isnt always Aware of how loudly he’s speaking. he tries but ?? forgets 
hes so bad abt charging things. 
like ,, he Sees the low battery warning. and closes it because “i’ll do that in a sec”
he does not do it in a sec. he forgets. and the thing Dies. and hes always like “what the fuck” before remembering that he was warned 
he alternates between being Really Organized and scheduling the fuck out of everything and just ?? not trying because he kept forgetting and “lol too late to keep this up whats the point of trying”

Darling | Part 1
Tumblr media
♔ a/n: okay so this is my very first attempt at writing a fanfic! i got the inspiration for this fic while watching ‘p.s. i love you’ for the 100th time (i cry literally every time i watch that movie tbfh) so i really hope you enjoy this! feel free to follow and stay tuned for more!  ~ admin nat
DISCLAIMER: THIS IS JUST INSPIRED BY THE STORY. I AM BY NO MEANS TRYING TO TAKE CREDIT FROM THE AUTHOR, CECILIA AHERN.
♔ pairing: taehyung x reader (jin x reader)
♔ genre: angst, fluff
♔ word count: 1,950
You whipped around to face him as you heard the hotel room door shut. Your nostrils flared and your hands clenched as your throat painfully tightened in pure anger. He seemed scared to see you in this state, his whole body quivering under your intense glare.
“I can’t believe you. Three years. Three whole fucking years and she didn’t know that we were married?!” you finally spat out.
He flinched at your words, feeling the anger radiating from your body. “I know you’re upset, but please understand that I had a very good reason.”
You huffed, sliding off your heels.
“What ‘good’ reason could you possibly have to not mention your marriage to your own goddamn mother?! Do you know how mortified I am?!” you shouted, chucking your shoes at him. He refused to move, squinting his eyes shut as the shoes hit his chest and shoulder.
“Yes, but I was going to tell her eventua-”
“WHEN were you going to tell her, Jin?! The poor woman still thought I was your exchange student from college! It doesn’t help that she’s not that fond of foreigners to begin with!”
“Well I don’t know what you want me to do about it now! What’s done is done…. Please just let me explain myself, goddamnit!” he shot back, his tone catching you off guard. You have had enough of him playing the victim. You tightened your jaw, the words leaving your mouth before you could think.
“Get out.”
Jin’s eyes widened at your words, his aggressive exterior immediately vanishing. “W-what?”
You took a deep breath and lifted your eyes to meet his, your heart instantly breaking upon the sight of your husband’s lip trembling.. “You heard me. Get out.”
He rolled his eyes and scoffed as his brows furrowed in frustration.
“Aish.. Michigetda….” he grumbled under his breath. He shot you one last look before turning around slamming the door behind him.
Worry began to fill your head as you stood in front of the mirror in your underwear. You had noticed that about 30 minutes had gone by since you kicked him out. I wonder if he’s okay.. you thought while reaching for your phone on the sink. You hesitated to dial his number, your thumb hovering over the call button. A sigh escaped your lips as you gave in, pressing his number.
Your stomach dropped as the call went straight to voicemail, leaving you with twice the amount of worry you had before. You couldn’t stay still now. You paced around the hotel room, anxiety eating at your brain. Out of curiosity, you checked the time on your phone.
“2:32 am?!” You exclaimed. You quickly tossed your phone off to the side, running across the room to grab clothes. “Fuck!”
How stupid could you be? How could you kick your husband out of your shared hotel room in the early hours of the morning? Where was he supposed to go? Back to his mother’s? Your mind went into full panic mode as you hastily threw on a coat and sneakers, disregarding the fact that you only had a bra and underwear on underneath. You didn’t care at this point. You needed to make sure he was okay.
You grabbed your purse off of the bed, preparing yourself to take the subway towards Gwacheon. Tugging the door open, you stumbled out, tripping over your unusually large shoes. You looked down, realizing that the shoes you were wearing were Jin’s.
“Fuck! I’m such a fucking idiot!” you mumbled to yourself, rubbing at your temples. You seriously screwed up. Both of you are supposed to be flying back to  America in 7 hours and you’ve lost your husband, all because you were upset.
“What in the world are you wearing?”
You froze at the familiar voice coming from behind you. Slowly turning around, your eyes fell down to the handsome man that was your husband, sitting on the floor outside your hotel room. You could tell that he was crying. His face was puffy and red, and his knotted hair was sticking up in all directions. He looked so pitiful, like a little kid that was abandoned.
You didn’t give him time to stand up before you jumped on him, sobbing into his shoulder.
“I’m so sorry, Jin. I’m such a moron and a terrible wife and I’m so fucking sorry for doing this to you. I thought you had left to go home.”
He picked you up, letting you wrap your legs around his waist. He took a gentle hand and lifted your face to his, his bloodshot eyes meeting yours.
“Home? You’re my home.” he said, accompanied with a cute smile.
His smile quickly faded as he carefully let you down back on your feet, reaching for your hands. “So I’m guessing that you want to know why I didn’t tell her.”
You nodded.
“You already know how my mom isn’t a huge fan of foreigners..”
You nodded again, wondering where he was going with this.
His grip tightened as a sigh left his lips. “Well....back in the late 70′s, my mother married an American soldier.”
His words hit you like a brick wall. You opened your mouth to say something, but no words would come out.
He chuckled at your expression. “Bet you weren’t expecting that, were you?” he asked.
You shook your head, trying to process what he had said. “Not at all,” you answered, “but why would she marry a foreigner if she doesn’t like them?”
“That’s the thing,” he started, “she used to not have a problem with them.”
You shifted your feet, reluctantly growing curious. “Well….what happened?”
“She got her heart broken.” He swiped his thumb across your hand. “They were together for 10 years. One day he was there, and the next, he was gone. No letters. No phone calls. So, she moved right back to Korea where she met my father and, a few years later, gave birth to me. My father was an abusive man, and they split up before I was born. To this day, she’s still in love with that soldier. And.... although she’s too proud to admit it, she still waits for him.”
“Oh wow,” your voice cracked, “I had no idea. That’s crazy. Your poor mother….”
He nodded at your words. “She just doesn’t want to see the same thing happen to me. It’s not personal. I hope you understand that was the reason why I was so hesitant to tel-”
You cut him off with a passionate kiss. His face turned red at the sudden action, a smile slowly creeping onto his face.
“I’ll never leave you. I promise.” you said as you held up your pinky finger. “Now let’s go back inside and get some sleep, hm?” 
                                             {7 months later}
Dressed in black, you looked nervously around the dimly lit room as more and more of Jin’s friends and family piled in. They all approached you one by one, giving their thoughts and apologies, before turning and bowing at the dark green urn that was positioned beside your favorite picture of Jin. He was wearing a red sweater, his expression in mid-laugh. You remember when you took the picture, but you never really took the time to look at his youthful appearance- his squinted eyes, his open mouth displaying his charming teeth, and the slight pink tint to his golden cheeks. You’ve always loved the picture, but you’ve never loved it as much as you do now. 
You never thought that you would end up being a widow. You felt so many emotions when you heard the news of Jin’s death, mostly angry and depressed. Angry- because he never told you about the growing tumor in his brain, and depressed, because of how cruel life can be. 
The sudden silence of the room snapped you out of your thoughts. You quickly looked up to see what was happening. 
Your breath hitched when your eyes found Jin’s mother, standing in the doorway. Upon seeing her gaze fall on you, your face flushed with embarrassment, for you haven’t seen her since the day Jin passively informed her of your marriage. She quickly made her way over towards you, her expression frantic. 
“Where…he…J-Jin..?” she asked in her broken English.
You pointed a finger towards the urn. She started to walk away when you grabbed her wrist, making her stop in her tracks. She slowly turned to look at you, a confused expression painted on her face. 
You calmly rose from your seat and bowed deeply. You held the position as tears fell from your eyes. “Antakkaun maeumeul jeonhapnida.” (I’m sorry for your loss.)
She slightly bowed back, her eyes glued to the ground as she avoided eye contact.
“Oh! Yes, right..” you muttered to yourself as you dug in your jacket pocket, fishing out your envelope of condolence money. You gripped it with both hands before handing it to her. 
She nodded and mumbled a quiet “Gomawoyo” before heading towards Jin’s urn.
You sat back in your chair and sighed as you watched her light a candle and set it next to his photo. 
“Well that was awkward… She actually showed up, huh?” You heard your friend Yoongi huff beside you. 
“Yeah… I didn’t expect her to come at all. She doesn’t appreciate foreigners, let alone a melting pot like America.” Hoseok said as he came up behind Yoongi.
You shrugged. “Well it’s her son… I would go through hell for my child if I had one... That poor woman.”
Jin’s mother took a seat in the front row as his family members announced the beginning of the ceremony.
                                              {3 ½ weeks later}
KNOCK! KNOCK!
You shifted in your bed.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
The pounding on the door awoke you from your sleep. You grunted, struggling to sit up. 
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
“Mmmh! I’m coming!” you whined as you quickly swung your legs over the side of the bed, dragging your feet on the way to the door. You opened the door before Yoongi could knock on it again. 
He chuckled. “Wow. You look like shit.”
“What do you want?” you asked as you rubbed at your eye, your vision still adjusting to the bright daylight coming into your home.
“Wow, I thought you’d be a bit more eager to see us, seeing as that you haven’t talked to us in over a month!” Hoseok sarcastically snapped. 
“And guess who came back from Australia!” you heard a familiar voice say from behind Yoongi and Hoseok. 
Your eyes widened. “Is that… Kookie?”
Jungkook jumped out with his hands full of presents. “Merry Christmas!”
Your expression immediately softened upon seeing your brother for the first time in a year, and you welcomed him with a tight hug. 
“Well now that we’ve made your life a little less miserable, here.” Hoseok said as he tossed a present to you. You mouthed a silent ‘thank you’ before placing the present on your dining room table.
“Thanks guys, I really appreciate it…. But I had no clue that it was Christmas.”
Yoongi walked in with two handfuls of mail. “Yeah, we can tell.  When was the last time you checked your mailbox? Or... left your house?”
You looked down at your feet. “I uh….quit my job. So… about 3 weeks ago?”
“You WHAT?” Jungkook exclaimed.
You shifted uncomfortably under the burning gaze of three pairs of eyes that were ready to pop any second.
“I blew up at my boss and quit before she could even fire me.” you responded, plopping down on your living room couch while running your hands through your messy hair. 
“You do realize that you’ll be broke any moment now, do you? Do you know that you fucked up, by any chance?” Hoseok mumbled as he took a seat on the arm of your couch.
“I know! I’m fucking dumb!” you cried, pushing your face into your pillow.
“Well, you got that right!” Yoongi giggled as he walked over to the kitchen. “We’re going to pay your piled up bills before you start living like a caveman, ok?”
“And we’re going to go job searching, right?” Hoseok added as he nudged your shoulder.
You groaned, throwing your pillow down in defeat. “Fine. Stop nagging. Now give me a damn present!”
“HAND THE GRINCH A PRESENT!” Hoseok shouted at Jungkook. You watched as your brother scrambled around, tossing the first present he found towards you. 
“I’m sorry that I don’t have any presents for you guys… You can just look around the house and take something you want. I’m a mess..” you sighed, tearing open the first present. 
“Awww.. baby. We still love you even though you live like a disgusting pig!” Hoseok purred sarcastically. You shot back at him by sticking your tongue out.
“Uh… guys? I think you’ll wanna look at this!” Yoongi shouted from the kitchen. 
You groaned. “Yes, I know my house is messy! Sorry about that!” you shouted back, turning your attention back to your half-opened present.
“No, no. It’s…uh.. it’s a letter. From Jin.”

Hey, im the original annon that started the whole fakes lay low thing.... sorry! Anyways i absolutly love your additions and i never thought it'd get this big. Your tags kill me. I am curious however how do you think the rest of the crew might react when they finally meet Jeremy? Maybe geoff already had him on his radar. Maybe he is apart of funhuas which is a subsidiary of of sorts to the fahc. (1/?)
Maybe he is apart of funhaus which is a rival gang,maybe that was part of the big battle that caused the fakes to go underground.Like FH found and revealed the location of the penthouse the LSPD, because ifthey’re going down damn it so will the fakes. so Jeremy is just trying to getby after his gang is completely destroyed. And sure he wasnt a very big memeberbut he needed that extra cash to pay rent. And no other gang dare touch anyonethat the fakes may have a beef with (2/?)
So that is why he started joining the fights andstuff…. sorry i kinda got off topic… but the fact that ryan is with someonefrom a rival gang the very gang thay got them into this mess gahhhhhh!!!!! Theangest in the fahc would be so intense. (3/3) p.s. I’ve been follwing your blogfor a while so to see my ask be rebloged by another great person and comeacross my dash really made my day thank you for all you’ve added
OMG hello!!! Don’t be sorry, you’ve given birth tosomething wonderful :D Thank you so so much for the kind words omg, I’m sohappy you enjoy what I added!
OOOH I do like the idea of him being part ofFunhaus or another rival gang - I think I’mma go with another random rival gangthough since I like the idea of Funhaus/Fakehaus being on good terms with theFAHC haha :’) 
Most of it’s under a read more because this got insanely long oops… Also just gonna tag @shadeofazmeinya​ and @miss-ingno​ bc Ifeel like that’s just a given for this AU haha
Jeremy who’s made his living off of undergroundfighting rings finally getting hired to do some grunt work for a crew whosename he actually recognises. He thinks he’s moving up in the world, thinks he’sfinally going to get his big break in crime, actually have a steady cash flow.He never even meets the head honcho of this crew in fact, but he’s only beenworking with them for a short time when he hears the boss just sold out theFakes. He has no idea how that was something a smaller crew like theirs couldeven accomplish, but next thing he knows it’s all over the news how the Fake AHCrew’s official penthouse has been found, how hackers are currently lookinginto the phones and credit cards they left behind, how the LSPD are on a manhunt and they’recertain they’ll be at one of many locations that they’ve now been able to traceback to the crew. And see the thing is, Jeremy always admired the Fakes. Alwayslooked up to them, appreciated what they stood for as a crew. They alwaysseemed so close and it was something Jeremy dreamed about having one day. He’salmost sad that they’ve been taken down by his boss. Scratch that, he isactually kind of upset.
And thenhe learns that the reason his boss fucking did it is because their own gang isgoing under. Only a couple days later and they’re under attack themselves,Jeremy fleeing before things get too intense. There’s a viral clip going aroundof his ex-boss being dragged into a cop car boasting about how “I took down the Fakes before I went down, Idon’t give a shit what you do to me now!” And welp, if Jeremy wasn’t in a rough patchbefore, he sure as hell is now. He goes back to fighting rings and small crimeson the side. It’s all he knows how to do.
Skipping past the rest of the posts that’vealready been made about FAHC going in hiding, Ryan working at Starbucks, Jeremybeing a regular customer there, them falling for each other obviously, etc etcetc…
I imagine it doesn’t take very long afterJeremy finds out Ryan is the Vagabond for Ryan to take Jeremy to the safehouse.Jeremy didn’t run, Jeremy didn’t slam the door in his face. He actually helpedRyan out, even after knowing exactly who he is and what he has done. Ryantrusts him infinitesimally more after that. Ryan is too injured to go back tothe safehouse the day after the return-heist-gone-wrong (I imagine a couplebroken ribs and a bullet graze at the least) and he wakes up to a blanket overtop of him and Jeremy is asleep on the floor beside him and if he hadn’tfallen for him already, boy is that the moment he realises it. Jeremy wakesup and he makes them breakfast and sits by Ryan’s side and Ryan just findshimself spilling everything. What it was like when they got taken down, howtense it’s been in the household for all these months, how fucking ridiculouslyshitty it is to work in Starbucks but that Jeremy is always the best part ofhis day, that this heist felt like it was going to make everything better somehow, like it was just goingto magically solve all their problems and the Fakes would be back on top in notime. How he’s actually quite scared that things will never be that way againafter what happened yesterday. Jeremy listens, and he understands. He knowsthat feeling so, so well. Hope just being shattered in an instant. They spendthe day getting to know each other – actuallygetting to know each other, no veils or masks or secrets anymore. And it’sreally nice.
But then Ryan turns on his latest phone andsees the string of increasingly worried and frantic texts from the others. He finallylets them know he’s okay, which only really increases their panic tenfold aboutwhere he is. Jeremy has been readingover his shoulder (okay so his head is leaning on Ryan’s shoulder actually) andhe asks how far away their tiny base is. Ryan bites his lip and says it’sacross town and immediately starts mumbling about how his motorbike waswrecked, he doesn’t have a car, he walked here from the heist, stealing avehicle now is just impractical probably- and Jeremy interrupts like “Dude. Youdisguised yourself as a citizen for almost a whole fucking year. A shower and a changeof clothes and you could easily just take a taxi.” Ryan protests immediatelythat then the taxi driver will know where their only safehouse left is, towhich Jeremy says, “Then we’ll ask him to stop a block away and I’ll walk youthe rest of the way.”
“…You’re coming?”
“Well I’m guessing you don’t have any moneyon you. And I’m not fucking letting you go alone when you’re hurt like this.”
And if it were anyone else, anyone else, Ryan would probably have toslit their throat for knowing so much. But it’s Jeremy. So that’s that.
Jeremy helps Ryan to the shower (and out ofhis clothes - awkward avoiding looking at his body ensues, because it’s different when he’s not fixing up wounds with Ryan half passed out) and tries to findsome clothes that fit him. He thinks a baggy shirt will do, and the longestpair of sweatpants he owns (which actually belonged to an old friend namedTrevor once upon a time). The clothes cling a little bit, but hugging Ryan’sfigure isn’t a bad thing tbh. Ryan shoves his gear in an old, torn backpack ofJeremy’s and they call a taxi. Ryan tells the driver to go to a street that’s alittle ways away from the safehouse (three blocks actually, just to be careful,plus there’s shortcuts through backalleys and whatnot). Jeremy winces a littlebit at the final cost of the taxi and Ryan feels really bad, he’s known for a while now that money istight for Jeremy, but Li’l J produces what is needed for payment and off theygo, the smaller man helping Ryan walk the rest of the way.
Ryan’s ribs and other wounds are aching bythe time they reach the safehouse but they’re here and they made it and heknocks on the door because he lost his key and it swings open after a secondand Jack is pulling him into a fierce hug. He chokes out a small noise of painbut then hugs her back, albeit a bit awkwardly because he still had one armaround Jeremy for support. Then, from the doorway, Gavin is asking “Who areyou?” And Jack takes a step back and Ryan sees them all crowded behind her now,looking at Jeremy in equal parts confusion, surprise and distrust. Jeremyhimself looks stunned tbh. I mean, c’mon, it’s the Fakes. They’re famous. They were practically his crime idols. Evenif he didn’t know Ryan when he first saw him (or in the many months following)and it took him a second or two to place Jack, he knows Ramsey, and Mogar, andthe Golden Boy. Who in Los Santos doesn’t have their faces burned into theirminds?
So Ryan clears his throat and introduces him.“This is Jeremy. He’s a.. friend.” Jeremy glances over at Ryan and snapshimself out of it to give them a hesitant smile. The Fakes all look fuckingweirded out at that tbfh because since when does Ryan refer to people otherthan them as friends lol? They overlook that for now and pull the both of theminto the safehouse and gather in their little living room around the diningtable and the couch to hound Ryan with questions about what happened to him,where he was, how he got here, if anyone suspects where they are, etc etc.Which Ryan all answers calmly and truthfully, asking them similar questions inreturn and letting Jack hover over his wounds. Jeremy sits by his sideawkwardly through all of this, internally freaking the fuck out that he’s in aroom with the Fake AH Crew and tryinghis best not to pass out, lbr. Also he’s trying to ignore the fact that Geoffhasn’t spoken one word yet and is staring at him with the weirdest look on hisface.
Eventually the questions turn to Jeremy ofcourse. Who are you, how do you know Ryan, what are you doing here, what do youdo for a living. Ryan answers most of these so that he can deflect what heknows Jeremy won’t want to answer more easily, though Jeremy pipes up quietlynow and then. They’re both grateful that the others don’t tell him to leave orthreaten to kill him or anything drastic like that. Until suddenly Geoffinterrupts something Gavin is saying to ask, “You’re not Jeremy Dooley, are you? Rimmy Tim?” Jack sitsup a little straighter at that, face going hard, and the others look at Geoffquestioningly. Jeremy coughs a small laugh, genuinely shocked that Geoff fucking Ramsey actually knows who he is. “Yep, that’s me,” he replies, dazed. He thinksthat this is a good thing for a fleeting moment. He does not know that that is avery, very bad thing.
Geoff immediately leaps up from where he wassitting and slams a fist on the table, fuming in an instant. “I fucking knew it! I’ve had the names, photos and aliasesof all of you fuckers that got away from dayfucking one.” The others are alert in an instant, Jeremy’s blood turningcold at his anger, slowly starting to shake his head, eyes wide. “Are youwired? Who knows we’re here?” Jeremy just starts spluttering nonsense, nothaving a clue what to say. Jack backs away. Ryan looks up at Jeremy with asmall frown. When Jeremy can’t produce a coherent response, Geoff takes a fewsteps closer. “You were with the [gang] when we went down. You assholes fuckingruined us! Look at us! Are you fucking happynow?” Jeremy’s shaking his head frantically now, starting up a whispered chant of ‘no,no, no’ but not able to cut into Geoff practically spitting in his face now. “Weknow exactly how many of you got away, exactlywho you are, and the first fucking thing we’re going to do if we get back ontop is take you and your little buddies out. Rimmy Tim is number seven.”
“He’s about to be number one when I blow hisfucking brains out,” comes Michael’s voice from behind Geoff. Michael may stillbe limping from where cops shot him in the leg, but he was still quick enoughto grab a gun and be pointing it right at Jeremy’s head. Jeremy goes numb andsqueaks out, “I swear, I didn’t-“ Geoff holds up a hand to Michael. Michaeldoesn’t shoot, but he doesn’t put the gun down either. And then Geoff ispicking Jeremy up by the collar and shoving him against the wall. “Are. You.Wired?” Jeremy shakes his head. “Are your friendson their way? To finish up the fucking job their boss started?”
“They’re n- I’m- I didn’t-“
Michael explodes. “Answer the fucking question!”
“N-No. No, nobody’s coming.”
“So whatthen? You found out who Ryan was on your own? Stalked him for however long,finally managed to follow him here? Gonna round them up to kill us all when we’resleeping?”
“Geoff,” Ryan quietly calls from where he’ssitting.
“No,I-I swear, I’d never-“
“You were gonna take us out by yourself?”
“I didn’tknow!” Jeremy cuts in, breathing heavily, absolutely fucking terrified.That makes Geoff pause, his grip loosening a little bit and he squints insuspicion. Michael only takes a small step closer with the pistol. “I swear tofucking God, I didn’t know. I justdid grunt work for them, f-for like two weeks. I don’t even know who was in onit, or where the hell they got the information from, I was sad when you- It felt wrong, it always felt wrong. I haven’t heardfrom anyone else who got out, I didn’t even know anyone else did. I swear, I promise. Please,I didn’t know who Ryan was, I had no fucking idea, not until last night. I’mnot going to tell anyone, I’m not going to do anything, I didn’t know. I didn’t know.” Somewhere in his brokenpleading, Ryan had called Geoff’s name again, and suddenly the older man isripped away from Jeremy and he slumps against the wall a little. Ryan hasgotten up, grabbed Geoff by the shoulder and yanked him away. His expression isgrim and Jeremy has never seen him look this deadly serious. Geoff opens hismouth to protest, but doesn’t. After a moment of tense silence, Ryan speaks up.
“If Jeremy says he didn’t know, then he didn’tknow.”
Nobody in the room speaks after that. Geoffand Ryan stare at each other, Ryan’s hand still on Geoff’s shoulder, Geoffdefiantly setting his jaw. Jeremy glances around the room, sees Michael slowlylowering the gun and staring at Ryan with a bewildered expression, sees Gavinin the corner looking vaguely horrified (he’s kicking himself really, becauseRyan had him look into Jeremy all those months ago didn’t he, but he thoughtnothing of it, only did a surface check. If only he’d looked a little deeper, maybe Ryan wouldn’t have endedup bloody bringing the guy here), sees Jack hovering near Gavin glancing withopen curiosity between Ryan and Jeremy. Because, you see, calling Jeremy afriend is one thing, but the only people Ryan has ever truly trusted in his life as far as the Fakesknow is them. And earning Ryan’strust is not an easy feat to accomplish, either. Really, the fact that Jeremyhas somehow wormed his way into Ryan’s heart enough for the man to totally andcompletely trust him is one thing, but the fact that the others have never heard Ryan breathe so much of aword about him is extremely telling of how much damage these past months have doneto them. Not just as a crew, but as a family.
Eventually, Geoff lets out a long sigh andnods. Whatever facial expression conversation the two of them were having seemsto be over and apparently Ryan trusting that Jeremy isn’t about to stab themall in the back is enough for now. Geoff wordlessly walks into the kitchen andsnags Jack’s arm on the way out, pulling her along with him. “What the fuck,Ryan?” Michael snaps, more out of confusion than genuine anger now. Ryan glaresover at him and Michael mumbles, “wow, okay, fine” before shoving the gun inthe back of his jeans and limping as angrily as possible after Geoff and Jackas well. Ryan’s gaze turns to Gavin, who purses his lips and takes a stepforward. Ryan doesn’t want to talk to him right now though, doesn’t want totalk to any of them really for leaping to conclusions about Jeremy like that, fucking hell, they don’t even know him. Maybe that’s partially hisfault, but shit, when was he meant to bring up that he had a massive crush on aguy while they were meant to be undercover? He looks over at Jeremy now,leaning against the wall, still looking half scared to death, pale as a sheetand shaking. Ryan deflates a little bit at the sight and reaches for him. Jeremyseems to jerk into reality, and looks up at Ryan’s face with wide eyes,standing up and reaching out towards him too. Ryan pulls him in for a hug,cradling him against his chest, careless of how it jostles his ribs. Jeremytakes a few deep breaths and Ryan lightly squeezes him reassuringly. He knows Gavin iswatching, he knows Gavin wants to talk to him. He can’t bring himself to care.He gently pries Jeremy off of him and holds him by the shoulders, leading himback outside. Gavin says his name softly but Ryan ignores him and closes thefront door behind them.
They’re standing on the porch and it’sstarted raining lightly outside and poor Jeremy still looks shell-shocked andRyan just wants to hug the shit out of him. But that would probably hurt themboth so instead he settles for asking, “Are you okay?”
Jeremy looks at him with a tiny frown. “I…”He opens and closes his mouth a few times, not seeming to be able to form thewords. Ryan doesn’t blame him. He knows Geoff – Ramsey – is a terrifying man to have on your bad side. Ryan heardJeremy talking not even a few hours ago about how he had always looked up tothe Fakes – another one of Jeremy’s hopes he supposes has just been shattered.Ryan gives him a sad smile. “Go home, Jeremy. My wallet’s inside. I’ll pay forthe taxi. Go home and try to get some rest. I’ll sort this out.”
Jeremy shakes his head. “What if they don’tbelieve you, Ryan?”
“They will,” he says firmly. He knows he canconvince the others to trust him – but Jeremy doesn’t.
“But what if they don’t? What if they didn’t believe me? Shit, I know theydidn’t. What if they come after me? What if you can’t stop them? I didn’t knowanything about what my boss was doing, Ryan, but they have me on a fucking hit list! I don’t have anywhere to go,Ryan, how am I supposed to go home? Gavin already looked up where I live, Jesus Christ, what if they think I’m-“
Ryan breaks off Jeremy’s ramblings by kissinghim.
They haven’t kissed before, not even comeclose, but it feels like it’s been a long time coming. Ryan presses his lips toJeremy’s and the shorter man melts instantly, tilting his head back andreaching for Ryan, fingers tangling in his shirt. Ryan cups Jeremy’s neck with one hand and the other man leans up on his tip toes as theydeepen the kiss. Jeremy tastes sweet and the air smells like rain and theirbeards scratch together and god, Ryanhas been craving this.
They break apart and Ryan half expects Jeremyto go catatonic, but it’s the complete opposite. Jeremy has stopped shaking,his shoulders have relaxed, and he’s giving Ryan a small smile. Ryan returns itwith a smile of his own. They don’t say anything more. They don’t need toreally. Jeremy trusts Ryan, and Ryan trusts Jeremy.

inhales it’s like 2 and my lazy ass just woke up an hour ago i hate myself. ANYWHO i’m arin ( he/him ) i’m in the pst and this is my son luca who i love & hate very much. i’ll update when i have his stats and a well worded backstory on him done but for now y’all will have to deal with this Mess.
✧ * . — geez, is that another CALUM HOOD duplicate in town ?? apparently this one goes by LUCA. they seem to be around TWENTY, just like the other HANI doppelgängers, but i heard that their AFFABLE, INTENSE, and ROWDY persona sets them apart. i hope they find their way back to their own universe soon. ( CIS MALE, HE/HIM ).
previously on Luca’s Life story 
he comes from a BIG family. he’s got like four older sisters and two moms and so many pets throughout the years. his fam was well off, not like Big Money, but enough to support each of his siblings and himself just fine. so life was good Luca Jones. ( name may vary if someone else already has it i didn’t check dfjf )
BUT !!! in a Twist of events, one day when he was younger he was snooping around his moms office and found a box of letters ?? to a baby boy ?? from someone who only signed as m. hani ? and he was So Confused and lil upset because He was the only baby boy of the house and he stg if there was a secret brother hidden from him he was gonna Riot !!! so he asked his mom what they were and found out he was adopted ( which shouldn’t of been a surprise since he has two moms but ANYWYAS ) & his birth mom had been writing letters for him every year for him to open whenever his Other parents decided to tell him. 
lowkey ? he was pissed. mostly because he was like 9 and that’s a lot to take in for a kid but also because he felt unwanted. even though his moms were legit the fucking best it left him really confused and a lil hurt for a long time. 
the older he got the more okay he was with it but the urge to meet her grew stronger, so after discussing it with his parents & them said they were fine w/ him changing his surname back to hani once he moved out, he’s been trying to find her. but hasn’t found Squat atm since there was never a return address and all the letters stopped coming in after he was 16.
if any of the doppelgangers end up having his mom he’ll probably clam up and come up with excuses to avoid meeting her. also since he was Adopted none of the older siblings are like . ~canon~ So !! if he has any biological siblings he wouldn’t Know
now back to your regular programming  
i can’t find it, but there’s this one picture from a book and it’s like .. “bonjour, y’all.” that’s luca. needs a god damn muzzle he’s so LOUD. he never shuts up ?? he’s always rough housing and hugging people and jumping around and breaking shit and for once in his life needs to just settle the down. will act very chummy w/ you like you two go Waaay back even tho you’re just the check out clerk at subway. honestly the kid has no secrets and will just word vomit his life story onto you if you have the patience to listen.
he’s always been that goofy kid who the teachers hated in school because he was always crackin jokes and yelling out obnoxious answer just to get a few giggles. he probably spent more time in detention than he did in class tbfh
luca has always been one to feel very deeply and is not shy to let you know what’s going on. tho he’s a bit dramatic at times but that’s a Given. He falls for people every second and could see himself with literally Anyone. his sexuality is all over the place all he knows is he likes people and he’s is totally Chill w/ sleeping w/ anyone. ( though he has a habit of getting attached real Quick )
nowadays he’s living in an apartment and going to uni for Social work which is his Second time switching majors so who knows how long this will last. he’s been spending most of his time getting wasted and doing dumb shit instead of focusing on his studies so he’ll probably end up dropping out because this life ain’t for Him. 
his moms are more than willing to help him out financially, but since he was the youngest, he wants them to just enjoy their lives Stress free not worrying abt their kids. so he’s basically broke atm. currently works part time at a chinese food place. but with his track recond who knows how long that will last
he is a drummer :~) because all of that pent up energy has to go Somewhere. he breaks his drum kit a lot because he’s a grade A Dumbass. Hc that one time when he was like 13 his school had a talent show going on and he fucking just   kicked a hole in his drum at the end of it in the name of Rock n Roll. also plays other instruments but they’re not his Passion. he’s really into garage punk because just yelling and being loud is Relatable. that & Skater/surfer music or just really anything Upbeat and boppin
believes the government is out to Get you and is an alien enthusiast. don’t .. ask him about this tho please he fucking never shuts up about it and it’s becoming a problem. the bottom of his board has ‘ufo response team’ on it, which is meant for a  car but he doesn’t have a license ( for GOOD reason )
also !! has a cockatoo named boyd who is his best friend that curses at everyone when they come over because he’s a terrible pet owner and teaches it how to say 'omelette du fromage�� in a shitty french accent
i’m gonna work on a stats page and HOPEFULLY have them up tonight . when they’re done they’ll be Here and possible plots over Here so if you’re from universe 2 and wanna plot hmU. or anyone for that matter really. pls love him down or hurt him idc !!
