#i love kaimelia

[stardstgf]

hello! i hope you’re having a good year so far! i hope you’re doing things you enjoy and getting the wonderful feeling of basking in that enjoyment. more selfishly i hope you’re enjoying your writing. and 50% more selfishly than that, i’d like to ask if you’re writing any kaimelia at the moment? discovered any more finished but previously un released works?

i just read who am i to ask for more? and loved it! every now and again i’ll go to the first page with the first kaimelia fics and find your account and check it so see if you’ve uploaded anything new. it’s a fun ritual every handful of months or so, for whenever i remember really. i’m about to start on we were angels once because amelia/arizona intrigues me 👀. and i wanted to let you know that i really like your writing! it’s so clear, so emotionally engaging, i feel like i’m in my own little world where time simultaneously slows way down but also like i just breeze through it. you somehow make taking in really complex emotional turmoils and struggles so easy to read and take in without them being draining. there’s good balance! that’s what it is!

anyway. i hope you’re doing well. and doing things that make you happy no matter what :)

HI HELLO oh my god.. ohmygod. Hi. This made my absolute day and I only just saw it now<33 I am having a crazy year, nothing like what I expected and total chaos in a million different ways. Lots of change. But things are okay<3

I am currently Not writing kaimelia, just cause I’ve been writing other things and focusing on writing for class. But I have got a couple of unfinished fics on the backburner rn. Some have one sentence and some are almost complete. So I’ll see if I can polish any and post soon💗I’ve been writing a lot of WWAO recently which I’m loving getting back into. I’m so so happy you’re enjoying my writing, this ask honestly made my day. Thank you sm<3

All the love xx

i hate how kaimelia ended but also love it because of the amelia angst

also amelia has a personalised number plate?!

[lynnbook]

I don't know why, but I'm completely obsessed with Kaimelia. I watched the 18 and 19 season in a month and every time they appeared I felt so happy.

I'm very used to being obssed with Amelia, but When Kai appeared I was completely in love with them too, and when the two of them got together this obsession only increased.

And now it's over and I don't know what to do, I've seen it all over again at least 20 times, both in Portuguese (which is my main language) and in English. I've read all the fanfics on AO3, I've saved and liked all the edits on tik tok, Instagram and YouTube, and after all that I'm still not over it.

Só, If you have any ideas on what I can do, read, watch or anything else to overcome or alleviate the lack I feel, please tell me.

(Sorry, English isn't my first language

Station 19 and Grey's thoughts from 4/13:

Getting a Marina kiss and a potential Kaimelia breakup in the same week is just... A lot.

I saw a TikTok this morning, where someone mentioned that there's been no development for Kaimelia and this is literally the exact same thing that broke them up last season. I wish I remembered who said that, because like.... I agree wholeheartedly (if I find the TikTok again I'll edit this and credit the creator). Why keep the relationship going at all, especially after not having Kai in the majority of the season?

I'd rather see Amelia spiral about losing her sisters, if we have to see her spiral at all. I love when Grey's tackles non-romantic relationships that their characters have, and so much of Amelia's arc is about found family. Why add romantic problems on top of that?

Why can't Grey's (and shondaland in general) come up with a reason for couples to break up other than the children issue? Literally all of their couples go through this. Be a little more creative please.

"We only work because we're long-distance." Just because it's true, doesn't make it hurt less. That line hurt so much. Again, why do we have to go down this path???

From a logical standpoint, I can't see a way out of this that actually makes any sense. Children aren't something that people can or should compromise on, and frankly careers aren't either.

When Richard gave Maggie the replica of the bench, i actually fully started crying. I know most people hate Maggie but I love her and she meant so much to Richard. That moment just... it got to my emotions lol.

That Maya and Carina kiss felt so good. The writers have (thankfully) been doing a great job of getting them back together slowly and letting them take their time. I'm loving it.

I also loved Maya talking to Carina about the photos Dixon gave her. Even if you're taking things slow, you can't quite erase everything about your past relationship, and she needed to talk to her wife. And, it shows Maya's new willingness to communicate AND that she's doing well enough now to go about things the right way.

I'm so, so glad we're getting Maya and Andy back this season. Their friendship was one of the best things about the early seasons and I'm glad that Maya has someone in her corner besides Carina.

I'm so glad Travis dropped out of the mayoral race. I honestly would have been so sad to see him leave the station and not be a firefighter anymore. I hope Dixon loses.

Ross and Sullivan are just... ugh. I mean, him leaving in order to be able to be with her publicly shows a lot of growth in character for him. And I like that. But both of them just get on my nerves (Ross with her hypocrisy and Sullivan with....... so many things). I hope there's more character development in store for both of them so that I can get on board with this.

greys finale yapping

ok at first i was like "why is so much happening at once" but i gotta say in the end it came together very nicely. like, way better than i expected at first. good job meg marinis you may live another day

in no particular order:

-MONMELIA IS OVER PARTY 2K24 YOURE ALL INVITED KAIMELIA ENDGAME BESTIESSSSS in season 21 bet 🙏

-we got a mermelia scene<3333 it was literally meredith holding amelias hand and saying "dont worry kitten" and amelia being like okay yay❤️ and then they made out so true

-jo is preggers. okay. random. levi is his usual annoying self. link is..there, i guess. but enough about that little ecosystem.

-noo richard my old man bestie ilyy but you do probably need to retire king 🙏 i liked the merichard scene we got but it didn't feel as like. monumental as it was intended to be. (ellen's acting... i have to laugh)

-catherine fox is iconic idc some people love to hate her some people just hate her, me personally i love her for the messy problematic quantum-feminist that she is (or isn't, i guess). QUEEEEEN just block me if you genuinely hate her ❗ 

-THE JULESMIKA SHIP IS BOARDING THE FLOOD IS COMING!!!!! LETS GO LESBIANS LETS GOOOOOOO thank you meg marinis for remembering to feed the lesbians today

-speaking of delicious femslash happening.... bailey and simone. i shan't say it but i am thinking it. i am thinking thoughts. there are many thoughts. which i am thinking. but i shall not say. them.

-all the interns AND BAILEY standing up to catherine for lucas was an iconic choice for a final scene (and probably the first final scene of a final episode in like five seasons that i'll actually remember) like the man is insufferable but omg SLAYY

-speaking of solidarity.... i am saur excited for meredith amelia teddy and owen unemployed era... this feels very season 9ish (which i LOVED) and i can't wait to see how they band together in this crisis and where the next season will take them.

in summation: not the best season overall (but we knew this) but extremely strong finale as far as drama and setting up the storylines for next season go. and let's remember this was meg(i'm on a first name basis with her now bcs she annihilated monmelia and she did that for me, Ella addison dykegomery)'s first season as a showrunner so it can only get better from here TRUST

i will see you ladies in fall 2024, apparently, for regularly scheduled greys clownery 🫡

kaimelia + spring <3

kaimelia + spring

(this is gonna be my last one for now, but I’ll do some more tmr night! feel free to keep sending prompts, im really enjoying doing these again :)) <3)

"So, I'm still coming to visit, but I have a request."

"That sounds a little scary," Amelia chuckled, snuggling down into her bed and propping her phone up against the empty pillow beside her. "What is it?"

"Lots of tissue boxes. Allergies are absolutely kicking my ass."

"So, out of everything in this world, a little bit of pollen is what gets you?"

"I'm not deathly allergic. Spring is just not my friend, and if you're going to laugh at me, you'll probably get sneezed on."

"So, tissues, hand sanitizer, allergy medication, anything else? I can wash my sheets and give the place a good vacuuming."

"That is all perfect." They sniffled on the other side of the phone. "You do have a point, though. It is a bit pathetic that some pollen is enough to nearly knock me out."

"Especially with you being an avid plant lover. I think that's some pretty strong form of toxic love, right there."

"Well, thankfully, I get some healthy love to fix that soon."

"You're gonna let me take care of you?" Kai rolled their eyes and grabbed a tissue.

"I'm not dying, but if you'd really like, I'm not going to say no." Amelia grinned.

"You don't even know how excited I am to see you, now."

[junequillay]

I started watching season 18 of Grey's and although I feel bad for Link, I love these two so much 😆😍 they're so cute, omg. I need more of them and I'm just in the beginning of kaimelia.

[faybellesbeauty]

Whose your fav pairing in greys and station 19

in grey’s probably Slexie or Kaimelia!!

would anyone be surprised if i said Marina for station 19??? but i love Vipley too (the only acceptable straight ship in that show and they had to ruin it smh..)

[chaosandken]

kaimelia + tent

Kaimelia + tent

"Camping? In the back yard?"

"Duh!" Kai responded, tossing more pillows and blankets on top of the air mattress they had blown up in a small tent that they had pitched in Amelia's back yard. "You never did this as a kid?" "I grew up in New York City," she quipped. "I couldn't exactly pitch a tent overnight on my fire escape." "Right. Well, now you'll officially be able to say that you took your son camping!" "He'll love it," she said with a smile, wrapping her arms around their waist, peering up at them. They returned the gesture, pulling her into a hug and kissing the top of her head. "What time did you say Link's dropping him off, again?" they pondered, hand moving lower down Amelia's back, fingers toying at the waistband of her jeans. "Hmm, not for another two hours." They let her go, beginning to unbutton their shirt, their stormy eyes meeting her bright blues with a smirk. She grinned back, biting her lip at them as they spoke. "Get in the tent."

[bi-lullaby]

Hi! I would love to hear your analysis of Amelink! What do you see as Amelia and Link'a similarities? In what ways are their personalities different? Are you surprised that the writers moved on from them or did you expect them to be endgame? I'm excited to read your responses!

(thank you for the ask!)

…Does Link even have a personality at this point?

I’m mostly being sarcastic but tbh I can’t see a whole bunch of things I’d describe Link as that aren’t so generic even a dating profile would be more in-depth.

I liked Amelink well enough (their beginning was PHENOMENAL and so sweet and I thought they had all the potential to be The It couple) (althought I do gotta add I shipped them fort he same reason I shipped Merlink quite strongly: He’s A Good Man who’d bring some sparkle and light into the life of one of my “dark and twisty” faves) and if they’d stayed making each other happy, I’d have been pleased for them to stay together, and I did think we were gearing up for them as endgame. I loved that both their personalities were explicitly shaped by childhood trauma but in such distinct ways, I love that it gave Amy experience and… Wisened her? While it gave Link a will to fight, a. surety in the possibility of regrowth. I mean, even their specialties reflect that? The rigid, precise control you gotta have with Neuro vs how ortho is so intrinsically tied with self-regeneration and movement. However, the writers apparently took Link from “sunshine golden retriever sweetheart” (which was shallow but consistent) to “single-minded entitled man-child” in one fell swoop and left very little for me to cheer for, and although they seem to have fixed that, it just isn’t the way to repair them as a couple.

I have empathy for his position, honestly, I see where he’s coming from in a lot of their conflicts (Like, I had a “?” face throughout the whole time Amelia was villanizing him for… not wanting to potentially raise someone else’s child?, I get that he wanted to marry Amy and was in love with her and that from his perspective (at least initially) her refusal must have stung and confused him), I understand what he was trying to get at with regards to him drinking during covid/quarentine even if he was not expressing it in a kind way) so it’s less that I think he’s necessarily bad for her and more that they’d have to eternally be fighting off resentment of each other.

Plus, while if I was, for examplec writting fic before Kai showed up and stole mine and Amelia’s hearts, I’d have put them together and ignored their breakdown, I really do love Kaimelia and see potential in Jolink and in letting Link branch. out as his own character more.

You know that TS song that goes “he was sunshine I was midnight rain”? I think that fits them very well. Beautiful aesthetics, can be made to work well together within a narrative but ultimately weren’t.

[magston-obsessed]

“As for a couple I can’t stand jolink I don’t understand why they had to go there. I really liked their friendship and I just think they have no romantic chemistry.” THANK YOU. Finally someone who said it. The whole “will they, won’t they” was extremely tiring and it is something I have seen with other couples on TV when the writers are milking the drama so much that it’s gets frustrating and repetitive af 😑

I’m sorry to all the jolink shippers and absolutely no judgement at all but I just don’t get it. They had such an amazing friendship and now all of a sudden they’ve always loved each other? They have to be one of my least favorite couples on the show ngl. And for some reason the writers and Krista and Camilla really want us to ship them. I really did like that Link was teaching Scout sign language I thought that was really sweet but in like a friendship way you know. I want Jo to be happy but I really wish we just got more Jo being a mom to Luna rather than Jo being in love with Link scenes.

Also I may be bitter because I will ship jolex for the rest of my life. (I know he left her with letters but in my head that didn’t happen okay?) I will admit that I would’ve rather had Jo end up with Todd (I liked him okay) or I really wanted Jo and Jordan Wright the intern from Minnesota to date or before we really met the new interns and when I just found out Adelaide was cast as Jules I kinda wanted Jo and Jules to have a thing. I’m prolly gonna get a lot of hate for this but I’m also still bitter about Amelink. I love Kaimelia (I could write a whole other post about kaimelia. Maybe I will sometime) and I hope they work things out but I want Amelink back honestly I hate that they ruined them. I don’t know at this point I’ve accepted that jolink is happening and I’m just gonna try to move on and not complain lol.

[stardstgf]

hi i finished reading all the kaimelia fics on ao3 recently and yours are some of my favourites and ive reread them a bunch of times because they make me Feel Things so just on here to say thank you <3

Omg HELLO!!! This absolutely made my day hi🥰so so happy you enjoyed reading them- those fics mean the absolute world to me lol I literally put my heart and soul into them so!! Huge love xxx

[mayasdeluca]

I dont get the hype over kaimelia. Its probably the representation which people love which is fine and good to see on tv but the actual relationship for me is kinda...uninteresting. I mean it's not bad it's just kinda bland. I think I just like amelia on her own.

I don't get it either and never did. It's probably the representation because Grey's has been missing that representation and hasn't had a non binary character ever so I understand it but Kai is just so bland in general and I personally don't see the chemistry between them at all. I'll forever be bitter they broke up Amelia and Link just for this relationship they barely show.

[jamies-overalls]

I'm a little more awake now, so let's do the last Grey's/Station 19 recap/reaction of the season:

Station 19:

MAYA AND CARINA. Honestly, I'm glad that this episode for them was just fluff and badassery. They've been through enough. Maya's hair was just... amazing. I loved that we got to see Carina perform c-section like that, I love that we get to see her doctor side more. And, y'know, because she's a badass.

What has been going on with Theo this season??? I used to like him, but damn. Now he's just a mess. Hopefully they'll explore that and explain it next season.........

Andy finally getting Captain of 19 was just... such a nice, full circle moment. I'd love to see her and Maya talk about it next season.

Vic deserves better than Theo, that's that. I was so hoping she'd be able to talk to him about her work (not necessarily tell him it was Beckett she saved but obviously that took a toll on her) and maybe Theo would have some empathy for once. But alas. No luck.

JACK???? MY BOY???? GET HIM SOME HELP PLEASE. THE MAN COLLAPSED.

Grey's Anatomy:

Grey's has a "too many characters" problem. I love the interns, but there's been so little Amelia or Owen (or even Teddy tbh) and many of the storylines feel rushed or weirdly paced because they have so much going on at once (we addressed Link's self-doubt one single time after he lost a patient and that's it???). I had hoped that Meredith and Maggie leaving would help with that, but it did not.

Helm and Mika are so adorable. I saw lots of comments on Twitter that they're too awkward or whatever. They've been on one date, guys, let them be silly and weird for a second 😂 I thought they were very cute. Can't wait to see how they handle Helm being senior resident next season.

Bailey winning the award had me in tears.

Still on the fence about Jo and Link. That scene was so incredible, but like... I feel like Link's entire reasoning was "I've always loved you, so stop flirting with that guy because I don't like it". But Jo does love him, so I guess it's fine???

I need more Amelia. Also real mad about no real Kaimelia conclusion.

Richard and Amelia are both struggling a bit, I'd love to see them being there for each other next season. I love their friendship.

[kindchenschema]

even their canon ones get sloppy treatment like helm/yasuda? incredible was a waste (why is helm even still there they clearly don’t give af about her) and monica/amelia never gave anything but blah. although i would take blah over the winston shit that was horrible. ik ur rejoicing 😭 bc you want kaimelia back and i love that for you (would love someone other than cristina to uphold their child free stance but im rooting for them resolve the kid thing) but i also don’t trust the writers not to slip a male in there while amelia ‘figures’ things out for like, that bisexual ‘rep’ or something idk. just a vibe i get.

also i so agree about catherine. they’ve always written her as cartoonishly evil but the actress pulls it off so well. everyone hates her but mean women are sexy sustain me and she’s never shit on my fave so she’s okay in my book idc lol. i kinda found everyone else boring this ep. jo/link esp. they need to be written off sooo badly because literally who gives a fuck. duller than dirt and idgaf about their fetus either like but other than zola and tuck, the kids on this show add absolutely nothing. 2/3

i'm honestly not that offended at how they treat lesbian ships because isn't that just... how they treat everything? bc the writing sucks and they won't touch the very sensible advice of "follow through with a storyline" with a ten foot pole. so

(but i think that's because 95% of my ships have never been canon and never will be, so i'm used to it. let's face it i'm simply more enlightened than the writers 😌)

oh girl i was cackling... i mean as a lesbian i was like damn y'all really baited us for the whole season (well they did like. the bare minimum. but) just to have her end up with this man .. like hmm okay supercorp if it did not slay and they had no chemistry and you bought katie mcgrath from wish

yes, back in s19 i fully believed they would resolve the kid thing. because i mean kaimelia's whole thing is that they're not an "ordinary" couple, like with amelia's speech to teddy about things not needing to be defined in order to be loved etc. like, scout already has two parents, sure it wouldn't be the traditional way of doing things but just bc you're dating someone who's a mom doesn't mean you also need to become a mom/dad. imo at least (but i know literally nothing and maybe this is wishful thinking because i'm only into 45 year olds)

you're so right, like nobody wants to watch that 😭 let amelia shepherd eat pussy 2k24 !

i'm like very anti-children and i hate that all my favs have kids EXCEPT for meredith/zola. i love zola. ever since she came onto the show she was the only kid i could tolerate and i grew to love her even. like she was sooo cute, so smart, never caused any trouble, i loved her adoption storyline, and now as a tween/teen she's also super adorable and a GENIUS like hello?? she rlly became a fav of mine these recent seasons because of the giftedness storyline and how the actress pulled it off (PLUS she's the OG merluca hater like it was sooo funny how much she hated his guts and ALSO inch resting how, when addison visited, she was super sweet and kind to her like ok zola really said meddison rights ! )

tldr she's just the superior grey's kid 🙌
