I saw this â100 OTP questionsâ by @the-moon-dust-writings and figured I'd procrastinate:
1. Who loves flower crowns more?
Neither of them really, but Asami might make Iroh wear one just to laugh at him.
2. Who is the one who likes to cuddle?
Iroh. Asami likes it, too, but he usually initiates.
3. Who has awful taste in music?
Honestly, both of them. Asami likes terrible dance music and Iroh likes obscure combinations of horns and bells and stuff from different cultures.
4. Who is the meme lover?
Asami thinks theyâre funny. Iroh doesnât quite understand.
5. How did their second date go?
Iroh tried to take Asami somewhere very fancy, but the wait was too long. They ended up making out in a shadowy doorway down the street and missing their reservation entirely. Iroh was mortified, but Asami dragged him around the corner to a low-key noodle shop that has since become their favorite restaurant.
6. How many children do they want/have?
Asami thinks about three. Iroh, as many as Asami will agree to.
7. Who hides the weapons?
Iroh hides weapons for Asami around the house so sheâll always have something on hand. In a drawer in the kitchen, on her nightstand, etc. He knows she can take care of herself⌠and he stashes weapons for her anyway. Asami rolls her eyes but secretly thinks itâs sweet.
8. Who is the better dancer?
Asami. She likes dancing, and learned formal dancing in school. Iroh canât dance at all, having skipped out on all his lessons as a child after bribing his instructor. He thought dancing is boring, but likes dancing with Asami and lets her lead.
9. Do/Did they have a theme wedding?
No. They quite deliberately have a very normal wedding, including cutting out a lot of the more stuffy Fire Nation customs because Iroh doesnât want Asami to feel out of place not having any family present.
10. What do their parents think of them dating?
Hiroshi Sato is livid, and actually tried to have Iroh assassinated from prison. His little girl, marry a firebender? A prince of the firebenders? Irohâs parents are more accepting. Izumi initially thinks Asami is too young and gives Iroh a hard time about how quickly he got serious, but quickly comes around when itâs clear Asami is very mature for her age. Within a year Irohâs parents are both hounding him on when heâll make it official.
11. Are they a super sappy couple?
They are that couple everybody hates.
12. How did they get together?
They meet during the Equalist revolution, but donât get together until long after. Iroh has a crush on Asami almost immediately, but spends forever sitting on it thinking it wasnât the right time and trying to be friends until one day he just kind of slips up and kisses her. She kisses him back. It turns out Asami liked him, too, but she isnât great at reading people and had no idea he was interested.
13. Who asked the other to get married?
Iroh just kind of blurts it out one day.
14. Who stays up too late and makes stupid jokes?
Asami is the night owl. Iroh makes the bad jokes.
15. Who is the nerd?
Oh my god, both of them. Asami is more of the classic nerd. Iroh is more of a dork.
16. Who knows the most obscure facts?
Iroh.
17. Who makes the other a flower crown?
Two questions about flower crowns out of 100?? Changing this to who is more dominant in bed. Asami.
18. Who likes to read?
Iroh. They both do, but heâs much more into it.
19. Who bothers the other person while the other person reads?
Asami. She has the shorter attention span.
20. Who tutors the other?
They both would in different subjects. Asami is better at math, physics, etc. Iroh is better at philosophy and languages.
21. Do they have similar taste in movies?
No. Asami likes gory slasher films and lots of action. Iroh scoffs and thinks theyâre dumb. Asami, in turn, thinks his period dramas can be kind of boring, and refuses to count documentaries as movies. But thereâs a healthy overlap in things like Vikings and Game of Thrones.
22. How do their personalities complement each other?
Asami helps Iroh lighten up a bit, drawing him out of his shell, and gives him an anchor and a sense of home. Sheâs more social than he is, and a lot of her friends eventually become his. But sheâs also quiet enough and serious enough that she doesnât tire him out and can feed his need for downtime. Iroh, in turn, loves seldom but deeply, and gives Asami the kind of fierce, unconditional love and stability she needs. Heâs also genuinely interested in her projects, is smart enough to follow most of it, and is one of the only people who can occasionally beat her in Pai Sho. They have a lot of fun together just being nerds.
23. How do they tell everyone that they are going to be having a kid/adopting a child soon?
They donât have to tell anybody. Itâs all over Irohâs face like a big neon sign.
24. Who has better fashion sense?
Asami, but not by much. Sheâs more up to date with trends, while Irohâs style is clean and classic.
25. Who will punch someone out if they are rude to their partner?
Hoo boy, both of them. Do not go there.
26. What songs do they sing together in the vehicle?
Neither of them sing in the satomobile. Iroh has a decent voice, but heâs a bit private about it. Asami mostly hums.
27. What other couple would your otp get along with?
Iroh quickly becomes BFFs with Bolin. Asami and Opal arenât quite as close, but they like each otherâs company and have fun as a foursome. They also get along quite well with Pema and Tenzin.
28. Who likes to prank the other?
Iroh tries more often. Asamiâs pranks are more successful.
29. Who is the one who loves to take pictures?
Iroh, though generally Korra is the picture taker in the group.
30. How would they react if they found out they were soul mates?
Iroh raises an eyebrow. âHmm.â Asami only shrugs. They both already knew that.
31. Where would they live?
They like Republic City and decide to stay downtown, first in an apartment and eventually a larger townhouse.
32. What type of dragon would they own, if they could have one?
Whichever one Iroh made friends with. Asami is a bit wary of animals and would need him to convince her it was safe.
33. If they were both vampires, what type of vampires would they be?
The kind that live in a beautiful house with perfect collections that took hundreds of years to make. Iroh has first editions of everything in a giant library, arranged in a complex system only he understands. Heâs working on his 14th language. Asami has invented artificial blood and doesnât miss sunburns. Occasionally sheâll throw one of those big fancy vampire balls just so they can both get dressed up. Theyâre pretty happy.
34. What would they dress up as, for Halloween?
They once went as Lady Tienhai and the last king of Mo Ce because picking something obscure and historical was the only way to get Iroh into a costume.
35. Can they name each otherâs favourite food?
Kind of. They are both really into food, so picking a favorite is hard. But if the question is can they order for one another, absolutely.
36. Do they have pet names for one another?
Asami sometimes calls Iroh âGeneral Hotstuffâ when sheâs teasing. Iroh sometimes calls Asami âsex pretzelâ when heâs 1000% sure they are alone.
37. How do they cheer each other up?
Asami is more of a gift giver. Sheâll show up with Irohâs favorite take-out or make him something in her workshopâanything to make him feel special and valued. Iroh is all about quality time, and will swing by Asamiâs office to haul her out on surprise dates. He also gives great hugs.
38. Do they show a lot of PDA?
No. Iroh is very uncomfortable with PDA, especially when heâs in uniform. Asami follows his lead.
39. How old were they when they got together?
Asami was 19-20, Iroh 24-25.
40. Who is the one that would bring the puppy home?
Iroh, 100%. Heâs such a sucker.
41. Can they do yoga coupleâs poses?
Yes, though Asami is the only one who really tries.
42. What is their song?
They donât really have one.
43. What does their room look like?
Asami moved in with Iroh, so itâs very basic. White walls, perfectly made bed, a neatly organized desk in the far corner by the window. Heâs a total minimalist, having spent most of his adult life on a ship. Asami added a very fluffy comforter in *gasp* a color and lots of pillows.
44. Who would be the one to kill zombies while the other keeps them grounded?
Theyâd take turns, and at some point Asami would turn it into a contest.
45. Who makes the other breakfast in bed?
Iroh. Asami is a terrible cook.
46. Who loves kids more?
Iroh.
47. Do either of them have a crazy ex?
Not crazy, but Iroh and his ex are not on good terms. He doesnât like to talk about it.
48. What are their favourite colours?
Asami, purple. Iroh, black. He gets annoyed when people get him so much red stuff.
49. Who likes to cook?
Iroh. He fired Asami from the kitchen, something they are both grateful for.
50. Who is the forgetful one?
Asami.
51. Does either of them know how to fight?
Have you met these people?
52. What do they do for Valentines Day?
Iroh would probably plan something elaborate for them to go out. Asami would plan something sexy for when they got home.
53. Who swears more?
Asami, at least out loud. Iroh mostly swears under his breath.
54. Who has the better comebacks?
Asami. Itâs not even close.
55. Who would start a fight with another parent at a bake sale?
Probably Asami, unless it was about the kids. If anyone comes for Irohâs kids, theyâd better hide.
56. Who reads buzzfeed?
Asami.
57. Who is the hopeless romantic?
Iroh, hands down.
58. Do either of them know how to do a handstand?
Asami can manage it.
59. Who can rap better?
Asami, though Iroh is the only one who actually listens to rap.
60. Do either of them want to go sky diving?
Asami would love to. Iroh laughs. âBeen there.â
61. What do they usually text about?
Some version of âI miss youâ or random pictures of stuff. They generally only text when Iroh is away as theyâre both busy during the day.
62. Who is the dramatic one?
Asami has a shorter fuse. Iroh is more ridiculous when he loses his shit.
63. Is either one confrontational?
Not really.
64. What is their favourite cuddle position?
Asami will lay on top of Iroh on the couch like a sandwich. Itâs the only position she seems to be able to nap in.
65. Who are their favourite musical artist(s)?â
See above about terrible taste in music.
66. What are their parenting styles?
Iroh covers a lot of the basics. He sets a schedule, makes lunches, tells bedtime stories, is more likely to help with the homework. Asami is the one who gets them around and does most of the interacting with teachers, other parents, etc. They share things fairly equally.
67. Who would be the more laid back one?
Iroh.
68. Who listens to more vulgar music?
Asami.
69. Do either of them have secrets even the other doesnât know?
Yes. Asami can be secretive about some of her projects, both out of an abundance of caution but also because she likes a big reveal. Iroh keeps some past relationship stuff close, and will occasionally read a steamy romance novel for âtips.â
70. Who is their go to couple for a double date?
Bolin and Opal
71. Do they tip the waiter/waitress on their date?
Iroh tips very well.
72. How do they work out a fight?
Asami yells. Iroh yells back. One of them storms off. The other one waits about half an hour then goes to find them, usually with an offering of food. There are hugs. Somebody cries. Then they finally talk it out before falling asleep together.
73. Who brings home an illegal pet?
Asami. She is less likely to have a pet, but if she does, itâs going to be a weird one.
74. What side of the bed do each of them sleep on?
Iroh is on the side by the window because he likes to get up with the sun.
75. What is their favorite photo of them two together?
Thereâs a photo Korra took at the beach where Iroh has Asami thrown over his shoulder right before dunking her in the water. This is the picture he takes with him when heâs deployed.
76. Who takes longer in the bathroom?
Asami.
77. Who has more songs on their ipod?
Iroh. If you can call them songs.
78. What movie did they first see together?
Iroh took her to Last Days of the Sun Warriors. She fell asleep. He said the book was better.
79. What do they like to see each other in?
Asami thinks Irohâs butt looks great in jeans. Iroh got Asami a red silk robe from the Fire Nation and likes to see it fall off.
80. Who makes jokes during inappropriate times?
Iroh.
81. At what age do they discuss the possibility of children?
Mid-20s, though they donât have them until a little later.
82. What do they love about each other the most?
Iroh likes that Asami is tough and smart and a problem-solver. Asami likes that Iroh is kind and brave and has a strong moral compass.
83. Who is the one that sees the big picture, while the other focusâs on the small details?
They are both big picture people, which is sometimes a problem. Of the two, Asami is probably better at details, but sheâs also forgetful.
84. What would they write on their partnerâs social mediaâs for their anniversary?
Asami would probably put up a picture of them and say something brief but sweet. Iroh doesnât really understand social media and would just paste a heart-eyes emoji.
85. Who is bad at math?
Iroh. Heâs not bad, per se, but Asami is very, very good.
86. Who googles everything?
Asami.
87. Who does stuff on impulse?
Both of them in different ways. Asami is generally more flexible. Iroh usually has a plan but makes big decisions completely off the cuff.
88. How do they comfort each other when they are helpless to do anything about the situation?
Lots of physical touch. Iroh will kind of just wrap himself around her in one giant, whole body hug. Asami will spend some time cursing out whomever is causing the issue, then let him lay his head in her lap and give Iroh a good head scratch or massage.
89. What is an inside joke they have?
There was one time they had sex in Asamiâs office at Future Industries, so occasionally sheâll drop things like, âfeel like coming by the office?â with a suggestive eyebrow waggle. Iroh is, predictably, very embarrassed. Also interested.
90. Who makes the other smile with almost no effort at all?
Asami: *exists* Iroh: *smiles*
91. What is their favourite holiday?
New Years is a big deal in the Fire Nation. Iroh loves his family and likes going home, and Asami has grown to love it almost as much.
92. Who is the one that is calm and collected while the other is angry and destructive?
They take turns. Both of them can have quite a temper when pushed too hard.
93. What is their favourite board game to play?
Theyâre both big Pai Sho fans, but can get into any kind of strategy game. Nobody really likes to play them though, they're too good.
94. Who accidentally sets something on fire?
Asami. Iroh hasnât had a fire accident since he was four.
95. Who has the car ready while the other is robbing the store?
Asami. Sheâd rob the store, too, but no way is she letting Iroh drive.
96. What artist/group did they go to for their first concert?
Iroh booked a private box at the Republic City Opera, thinking that was an impressive thing he should do on a date. It turns out neither of them like opera, and by the end they were both making fun of it.
97. Who sleep talks?
Asami. Iroh thinks itâs funny.
98. Who is the more social one?
Asami, by a long shot.
99. What are their karaoke songs?
Neither of them would really sing karaoke, but Iroh cannot hold his liquor like at all so if he ever got really plastered Asami might be able to drag him up there. By which point heâd be too far gone to have an opinion on the song and would sing just about anything.
100. Who would get up on stage and make a fool of themselves just to make the other laugh?
Asami.

BEEN A WHILE SINCE I ASKED MAMA BUT 5 7 8 20 !!! For the Elite Ten girls uwu
thank you for the ask bby đâ¤ď¸đĽş !! Iâll be glad to show some love for the Elite Ladies!
5. If they got a tattoo, what kind? If they have tattoos, what would their next one be?
It Kiyoko would ever get a tattoo it would be a very small one and it would be at a discrete place where it isnât so easily seen. I could imagine the motive to be either some flower, or a tiny Koi-fish in memory of her childhood days with Masashi.
Suzume would probably get a dragon. On her shoulder perhaps!
RanâŚGiven Ranâs Biker Aesthetic I could see a lot of tattoo possibilities for her. One thing I could see her do for sure is getting a tattoo of her siblingâs names somewhere (in an arsty form of course)
7. Their 2020s AU quarantine craft of choice?
I can see Kiyoko trying to make her own jewellery. Sheâd also use the time to get better at painting nails.
Suzumeâs quarantine craft is enTERTAINMENT! Sheâd troll around on TikTok, sheâd give random dance numbers in the living room, sheâd spam the Elite 10 Group Chat with memesâŚ.(But sheâd also experiment around with paint, I think and draw some random pictures once in a while)
Ran sews and knits new clothes for Ayanoâs dolls. And a whole dress for Ayano herself on top of that!
8. Which era of historical fashion do you think would fit them?
I would name the 50s/60s for Kiyoko, mostly because I can picture her very well in some Audrey Hepburn inspired looks. (Or the Japanese Edo Period would suit her as wellâŚI think? Iâm sadly not too knowledgeable about Asian fashion periods yet)
A lot of Suzumeâs casual fashion is pretty 70s inspired, so yesâŚThe 70s for her awhdhfhf! Sheâd rock a lot of 20s looks as well imho
I can picture Ran in some 80s grunge, I think :0
20. What kind of people are their type that they find most attractive? (Either platonic, romantic or sexual attraction.)
Kiyoko likes people who are justifiably confident (she canât stand it when people are all bark but no bite), but arenât intimidated by Kiyokoâs own power and ambitions. To get real close to her, you also have to be accepting of her darker sides though.
Suzume is a social butterfly who gets along with most types of personalities. However, justified confidence is definitely something she feels drawn to as well.
Ran is also a very affable persona, who gets along with mostly everyone. But something that really does draw her in is people who dream big, are determined and know how to take care of themselves.

Anya Taylor-Joy Infiltrates the Boysâ Club of Chess in The Queenâs Gambit
https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
Netflixâs period piece miniseries The Queenâs Gambit spans a decade in the life of fictional chess prodigy Beth Harmon (Anya Taylor-Joy), a wunderkind whose natural aptitude for anticipating her opponentsâ moves is blunted by her addiction to the tranquilizer pills with which she credits her wins. Following gawky teenage Beth through her early tournaments in the 1950s to the aloof redheaded beauty wowing spectators in Europe in the â60sâand leaving a trail of defeated men in her wakeâthe seven-hour series was faced with the challenge of making every chess scene equally thrilling to enthusiasts and non-fans alike.
The key, Taylor-Joy explains to Den of Geek, was in having every single game be recognizably unique. â[Series creator and director] Scott [Frank] and I would have a lot of conversations about both the chess and the addiction scenes, and how we were going to make each of them different and each of them fresh,â she says. âBecause this show is seven and a half hours, and if a lot of that is the same chess game, people are gonna wander off.â
The cast and crew imbued each chess match with specific emotion, matching Bethâs personal and professional growth, and unique physicality. For the latter, that involved bringing in chess consultant Bruce Pandolfini (who also consulted on Walter Tevisâ 1983 novel on which the series is based) and grandmaster Garry Kasparov to plan out the seriesâ many games down to every gambit and checkmate. Because neither Taylor-Joy nor her on-screen competitors had played much chess prior to shooting, treating the gameplay as choreography helped them pick up the moves.
âI saw the whole thing as a dance,â explains Taylor-Joy, a former ballet dancer. âI saw learning the choreography as dance, but just with your fingers.â
Costar Harry Melling, who plays one of Bethâs early rivals Harry Beltik, agrees that the authenticity was found in the tactile movements of the pieces themselves.
âOne of the most important things in terms of the choreography was the feel of the pieces,â he says, âabout how you take piecesâwhether you slide it across the board or whether you lift it up or put it down. All of these little details [are] what makes it look like youâve been doing it your entire life.â
âItâs like riding a horse,â says Thomas Brodie-Sangster, whose chess champion Benny Watts is known for a distinctive leather duster and laconic attitude. âIt doesnât really matter if you can ride a horse, itâs more about if you can get on the horse and get off the horse and look cool doing it. Thatâs what people pick up on; it shows that you actually look comfortable doing it.â
While Beltik and Benny are as fictional as Beth, the actors were encouraged to draw inspiration from current and historical grandmasters on which to base their charactersâ games. âEvery game in the show is based on a real game,â Brodie-Sangster says. âIf youâve got a really keen eye, you can probably recognize games from across the history of chess.â He modeled Bennyâs moves after Bobby Fischer, while Melling devoted a lot of time to watching current World Chess Champion Magnus Carlsen play.
âThat was really fascinating,â Melling says, âbecause I knew nothing about chess whatsoeverâso [I was] starting from ground zero, really, working out how these people operate, what makes them tick.â
Equally important as the dance steps were the dance partners. Taylor-Joy credits the originality of each sequence to who Beth is playing at that moment in timeâlike Townes (Jacob Fortune-Lloyd), a hunky competitor who flusters young Beth. âThe first time that Beth plays Townes, itâs the first time that sheâs ever liked somebody that sheâs playing opposite against,â she says, âso she wants to win, but she doesnât necessarily enjoy seeing him crumble, which is a new experience for her.â
Taylor-Joy soon found the game as dramatic as Beth does. âFor her, it is life or death,â she says. âThis is her intellect being challenged, and her intellect is the only thing she has any faith in. So I definitely felt the pressure, and thenâwhenever sheâs playing with somebodyâthe power high of that.â
Itâs no surprise that Beth gets a power high from defeating her male opponents, as it is a very insular boysâ club into which she enters as a dowdily-dressed teenager in the â50s. For her first match with Beltik at the Kentucky Chess Championship, Melling says, the former is very much in his element, âand then she sort of enters his sphere, and he becomes completely in awe of her talent, and he knows that sheâs a better player than him. His bubble gets burst very quick.â
Though Benny saunters into their first match together, Brodie-Sangster acknowledges that there is also an immediate spark with Beth. âHer presence is a bit of a surprise, and a bit of an enigma for him,â he says. âShe is very much in a manâs world and doesnât really look like she really fits in there; neither does he, and I think thereâs a kind of connection there.â
Beth grows up in the world of chess, both as an aspiring grandmaster and as a young woman. Taylor-Joy had a blast playing so many different versions of Beth, though she laughs recalling how Frank initially asked her how young she thought she could play. Fourteen or fifteen was her answerââeight, youâre gonna have to get another actor to do that oneââand so she portrays Beth from her inelegant teenage years through to her mid-twenties.
Over the course of the series, we witness Beths who are alternately brilliant and awkward, shy and sexy, on top of the world and extremely vulnerable. âBecause [the show] takes its time and because you do grow with her, you as an audience are allowed insight into why she is the way she is,â Taylor-Joy says. âYou see the things that shape her, and you see her grow from it, and you understand why sheâs grown in that direction.âÂ
To move between those many phases, she would devise her own backstories for the different Beths: âShe starts off walking very clumsily and awkwardly and almost side-to-side, and then I was like, âOh, and this is the first time sheâs ever seen an Audrey Hepburn movieâ and she starts wearing the black pants and the turtleneck and starts standing differently, if a boyâs around. And just trying on different personalities, as I think we all do, especially in that age range, and probably into our adult life. It was really fun.â
In contrast to her male opponents and love interests who inhabit the same sphere, the two key women in Bethâs life exist almost entirely outside of the chess world. Fellow orphan Jolene (Moses Ingram) shows her the ropes at the orphanage, much like an older sister, but resentment stretches between them when Beth is adopted and Jolene is left behind.
âItâs all in how theyâve grown up with each other and gotten to know each other,â says the theatrically trained Ingram of her first on-screen role and the difficult emotional history between Beth and Jolene. âI think people that truly love one another certainly get the very best, but also the very worst, of each other. When you can see someone that deeply, you canât help but be locked in to one another.â
Complicating their relationship is the fact that preteen Jolene is the one who introduces eight-year-old Beth to the tranquilizer pills to which she immediately becomes addicted. âJolene was just teaching her how to cope in the only way that Jolene has learned how to cope,â Ingram explains, but that simple act irrevocably shapes Bethâs approach to chess for the next decade. Initially used to âeven outâ the orphansâ disposition (and then later banned for their habit-forming tendencies), the pills help Beth envision a chessboard in the shadows of her bedroom ceiling at night. Taylor-Joy says she would track Bethâs mental and emotional state not just by the different matches, but by how the ghostly chess pieces appear to her: âSometimes theyâre familiar, sometimes theyâre very threatening, it all very much depends on where sheâs at.â
Unfortunately, where Beth is often at is relying too much on the pills to help her focus during chess games, believing herself unable to triumph when not in her altered state. Her dilemma is complicated by the fact that the tranquilizer pills come back into her life care of her adoptive mother Alma Wheatley (Marielle Heller), who initially comes off as a stereotypical â50s housewife who canât function without âMotherâs Little Helper.â (Though the pills go by the fictional name Xanzolam in the series, they seem to be a cousin of Azolam and other benzodiazepines.)
In the past four years, Heller has been best known behind the camera, as the director of such celebrated films as The Diary of a Teenage Girl (for which she also wrote the screenplay), Can You Ever Forgive Me?, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, and What the Constitution Means to Me. While Heller had always referenced her history as an actor as âpart of my superpower as a director,â she says that she began to feel like âa fraudâ when directing stars like Tom Hanks or Matthew Rhys. âI started to feel like, âDo I even remember what that feels like, to be an actor, to be asked to do these things, to be asked to go into these certain emotional places?ââ
So when Frank, a long-time friend, invited her to join the series and spend a few months shooting in Berlin, Heller saw it as the perfect opportunity to, in her words, âkeep my street cred as a director who was an actor.â As a director who seeks out projects about the uncomfortable things that people donât talk about, Heller found that Alma embodied those same sensibilities: âSheâs someone who has a lot of pain in her past, and that makes her most interesting; sheâs not some version of a â50s housewife that doesnât feel real. So much of what I try to do as a director is to tap into that thing that has made somebody the way they are.â
Despite mother and daughterâs initial friction, as Beth carves out her niche in the chess world, and Alma begins accompanying her on her more glamorous tournaments, the older woman is inspired to revisit her own long-abandoned dreams of devoting her life to a creative pursuit. âFor Alma,â Heller says, âshe had this dream deferred. She was somebody who wanted to be a pianist and artist and never could, and thatâs a pain that I feel is very human, and I totally connected to.â
Whatâs remarkable about The Queenâs Gambit is that each of its female characters experiences a different and specific struggle for the time period. âScott did that really beautifully,â Ingram says of playing adult Jolene, advocating for change during the Civil Rights movement while Beth is moving up through the ranks of the chess world. âHe didnât let us forget what point in time we were in the worldâweâre in the â60s, in the smack-dab [middle] of civil unrest, because people arenât being treated fairly. And I loved that Jolene is out front and being a crusader, being a champion for change, when very clearly all sheâs known is white people her whole life. So it was beautiful to see that sheâs found herself later, in changing the worldâtrying to, at least.â
In that endeavor, Jolene describes herself as a radical, though Ingram also feels that the word was a fitting theme for the series overall.
cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });
âI think itâs radical that Beth, as a woman, is this far into the chess world at this point in time,â she says. âItâs unheard of that sheâs there, and everyoneâs shocked by it. Itâs definitely a story of radical love, and radical faith.â
The Queenâs Gambit premieres October 23 on Netflix.

1. Whatâs your middle name, and do you like it? Emre and yes. 2. Are you artistic? Yes. 3. Have you had your first kiss? Yes. 4. What is your life goal? To make movies. 5. Do you have any experiences with a famous person? Yes. But some arenât particularly interesting and others are very negative and I donât care to name drop or regale. 6. Do you play any sports? Yeah. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and while itâs not a sport, rather a military system I have started Escrima. 7. Whatâs your worst fear? I canât imagine and even if I could I donât think it would be wise to release it on social media for all to see. 8. Whoâs your biggest inspiration? Jackie Chan. 9. Do you have any cool talents? I can draw. 10. are you a morning person? No. 11. How do you feel about pet names? Indifferent. 12. Do you like to read? Yes. 13. Name a list of shows that have changed your life. Perhaps Friends, it made me think about having a social life. Iâve always been a workaholic and after a while I considered maybe dedicating more time to my friends. 14. Do you care about your follower count? Not even a little tbh. I follow who I find interesting and I am grateful that I have so many people that are interested in my content and follow me. But, followers mean very little to me. I have blogs other than this one and there are about 4 followers on one of the ones I am very active on. Itâs not about the followers for me. Itâs just like an online scrapbook. Thatâs also why I make new ones, itâs kind of like getting a fresh scrapbook to distract me from my big one haha. 15. Whatâs the best dream youâve had? Ah, who knows. Iâve been blessed with many pleasant experiences and therefore pleasant dreams. 16. Have you ever kissed someone of your same gender? Yup. 17. Do you have any pets? My parents have a cat named Lucky. One day I would like to have a Siberian Husky. 18. Are you religious? I am very spiritual but religious, no. I was raised muslim but I converted to buddhism as a child. However, my mum continued to teach me muslim values. Still, I believe her to be an example of a good muslim. She never said that I couldnât be a buddhist. She believed I would pick up good values from it so she allowed it. As I grew older I looked to science more. I do not believe in a lot of buddhist beliefs such as reincarnation. However, I do believe in the concept of improving mind of matter, inner-peace and connectivity with the world around you through meditation. 19. Are you a people person? There are instances when I have been. But, for the most part I would say no. I can be quite difficult to like at first as Iâm a little rough around the edges. Itâs just who I am. I was actually raised in a home that has a decent amount of money. Just, as I took to the arts I saw swearing as a means of expression, so I began to swear frequently. I was curious about my military heritage, so I began martial arts. I have been told by quite a few that it took them a while to warm up to me. I feel like it could also be a cultural thing. Being half-Turkish I am very expressive and passionate when I talk at times and it might come across as a bit much or aggressive to someone who isnât used to me, so Iâm trying to improve on that haha. 20. Are you considered popular? Despite all that I just said, yes. I have many friends. I am a nice person, I play big-brother to everyone. Iâm just difficult to warm to. 21. What is one of your bad habits? I swear like a sailor. 22. Whatâs something that makes you feel vulnerable? Ohh. Not much these days. I used to feel very vulnerable if I cried. But these days Iâve recognised that itâs actually just a very healthy form of catharsis. It allows for the relief of stress and since Iâve become more secure about crying and expressing emotion Iâve actually become far more secure in my masculinity and the fragility of my ego has drastically improved.  23. What would you name your children? I have no idea. Not sure I want kids. 24. Whoâs your celebrity crush? Where to start? Aly Raisman, Jay Park, Daniel Dae Kim and Ariana Grande. 25.

The Rise of the Classy Lady - Pencil Dresses Suitable for Many Occasions
Pencil dresses are nothing new. They've been around for many years, and we've seen all sorts of takes on this classic design, from bum skimming bandage dresses to "mother of the bride" frumpy-esque matching tweed sets. They've had their highs... and their lows. But, in my opinion they're coming back with a vengeance this year.
The look of 'tight as it can go' bandage dresses are definitely on their way out, we're all getting bored of seeing girls in dresses that look wedged onto them (quite frankly, when was that ever a good look?). But in its place is coming a new breed of classic elegant young women - these girls wear knee lengths with pride and still rock the sexy look! Fitted pencil styles that are well tailored not only show off your figure, in a flattering and classic way, but give an air of sophistication and class. With a huge variety of necklines, colours, materials, and fashion features (such as peplums) they are around in abundance and I can't get enough of them! Teamed with a little clutch, a pair of stilettos and a big fascinator these dresses can easily take you from a day at the races to a formal family wedding. Or team with a big pair of wedges and an oversized hat and it's off to the polo with you! The effortless 40's/50's style vintage glamour they evoke fits in at so many events, and that is the beauty of their new adaptability into more modern fashions.
Events such as racing and polo are on the rise, sports once seen as purely for the wealthy to attend, but with tickets being more available and affordable to the general public it gives everyone an excuse to get dressed up and feel a bit special for a day. There definitely aren't enough occasions in life where we get the chance to be really glamorous anymore, and the lovely thing about a classic pencil dress is its adaptability from a smart work dress or dinner date dress, to a really glam event dress with just the right accessories and a bit of sparkle! In the current economic climate, people just can't afford the 'throw away' disposable fashions that we've been seeing in previous more affluent years, so it's all about basing your wardrobe around classic pieces that can be worn for a whole host of occasions which make you feel like the confident attractive woman you are when you slip them on.
Vintage Style Dresses - Peplum and Pencil Dresses
We've all been there. Your companions need to meet downtown for drinks on a Friday evening after work, and you don't have room schedule-wise to run home for an outfit change. How to discover a piece that will take you from office to mixed drink bar and keep you looking slick? The appropriate response is to locate a dress cut that is both snappy and work suitable.Â
The pencil dress is the ideal piece for those days you need to blend business and delight. With its complimenting cut and calf-length skirt, these gowns will give your troupe a glitzy vintage style. Taking motivation from Mad Men's Joan Holloway - the staggering redheaded secretary - this style is advanced for the working environment but on slant for nightfall.Â
Pencil dresses arrive in an assortment of hues, however the key pattern for this fall with regards to this cut is the Peplum. Giving the style a 80s contort, the peplum is a fun expansion that compliments the midriff and keeps the pattern intriguing. They encapsulate stick up excitement, and can be further adorned with a midriff belt in the event that you so wish. Another refresh to the style compares with a look that has been hot for the last couple of seasons - the adorned neckline. No compelling reason to stress over including costly adornments, these pieces that utilize sequins, fancy beading and dazzling metallic tones give your outfit a rich vibe, yet don't appear to be excessively conspicuous for an expert look.Â
The peplum slant has gotten on like insane with VIPs clamoring to display their most loved pieces that figure out how to look crisp and exemplary in the meantime. From Kim Kardashian in her perfect, white and insignificant peplum top matched with cowhide stockings, to Kate Middleton in a dazzling timberland green peplum dress with abdomen belt and beret adornments, those in the spotlight know about how complimenting and advanced this style is. Swap Kim's pattern driven calfskin for a more some cigarette jeans, and both of these styles would be ideal for the meeting room or the move floor.Â
In spite of being such a recognized outline, the peplum pencil dress can likewise basically be viewed as a clear canvas. They come in any and each tint, skirt length, sleeve style and neck area. Hot Fall hues, for example, oxblood and plum are peplum top choices; match with patent courts for a work of art and current group. Or on the other hand in case you're still in a Summer mood, pick pretty florals or nautical stripes, and finish with slingback cat heels in adorable, eye-getting shades. You can without much of a stretch make this pattern your own, in manners that will be appropriate for day to night wear. That is the magnificence of vintage enlivened dresses: the modernity and sentimentality of decades past that they imply, take into consideration a look that is both brilliant and obvious of a dedication to form and style.
Retro Fashion Silhouettes - From Fitted Pencil to Full Skirt Dresses
In each time, mold has its own particular arrangement of shapes, or outlines. From the particular clamors of the Victorian period to the straight, present day lines of the workmanship deco 1920s, outlines mirror the dispositions and feel of their opportunity.Â
The 1950's saw a blast of flourishing for the United States, and the dresses from that period reflect it. Following two decades, the lean long stretches of the gloom and the texture proportioning of the war were finished. In 1947, Christian Dior sent shockwaves through the form world with his "New Look" accumulation. With its clamped abdomens and full, voluminous skirts, this style set the tone for quite a long time to come. Surprising, hourglass were in!Â
Fit and flare dresses have a fitted bodice and a full skirt. Think mixed drink gatherings and Grace Kelly. This style was extremely trendy from the late 40's through the mid 60's, and has turned out to be famous again today. Fit and flare dresses are a fun, female style with twirling skirts that watch extraordinary out moving. They can be worn with a crinoline for additional volume or alone to truly give the skirt a chance to move.Â
Pencil dresses run the range from office wear (Joan Harris on Mad Men) to smooth centerfold girl attire (Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe) to rich night outfits (Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's) Pencil dresses are fitted start to finish, with a straight or somewhat decreased limited skirt that ordinarily falls some place close to the knees. The pencil outline is an attractive style that emphasizes and compliments the female shape on ladies everything being equal.Â
Shirtwaist dresses are a down to earth, simple to-wear look, with an apprehended bodice that fasten like a dress shirt and end at the characteristic waistline. The skirt flares out, and its volume can run from an unobtrusive A line to a full circle or more. Lucille Ball every now and again shook this look on "I Love Lucy", and for sure shirtwaist dresses were a famous decision for housewives of the 1950's, as they are sufficiently agreeable to wear around the house however can be spruced up effectively with a cap and gloves.Â
What's your most loved outline? Attempt a fitted bodice and full skirt for going out on the town or a figure embracing pencil dress to draw out your inward va-boom. What's more, on those occasions when you feel the desire for jazzy solace slip on a beautiful shirtwaist dress. The correct outline can truly take care of business your style.

Photo â Amelia Stanwix.
Where all the magic happens. Photo â Amelia Stanwix.
Jonathon âJoxâ Oxlade is an award-winning theatre designer, responsible for the sets and costumes for countless Australian theatre productions over the past 15 years. Working for much-lauded theatre companies including Bell Shakespeare and Belvoir Theatre, Jonathan has a particular flair for creating nostalgic worlds, with sets and costumes that reignite fond memories of a sepia-tinged Australia of the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s.
In recent years, Jonathan has expanded his skill set to tackle production design for films, too â picking up an ACCTA award (formerly AFI) for Best Costume Design on his very first Feature Film, Girl Asleep. (This brilliantly designed local film has a sort of âWes-Anderson-meets-The-Castleâ vibe â the trailer is well worth a look!)
Four years ago, Jonathan moved from Melbourne to Adelaide to take up a role as Resident Designer at Windmill Theatre â a dynamic theatre and film production company Jonathan has been collaborating with for more than 10 years.
âItâs one of the best things Iâve ever doneâ says Jonathon of his move to Adelaide. âI really love Adelaide, itâs a brilliant lively place, filled with excellent people, beautiful venues filled with world class food, minimal city intensity and good art. I ride my bike everywhere, itâs like a small European city in that way, and then thereâs the hills⌠which are filled with wine and more food. Adelaide spoils you in the most generous way.â
We recently caught up with Jonathan at his home/studio, right in the heart of the city.
What have been some of your career highlights so far?
Iâve had the opportunity to work with some incredible creatives over the years, and working closely with Rose Myers at Windmill Theatre is an ongoing creative relationship almost 10 years old now. As a Designer, working with a Director on multiple projects means you inevitably start to create a language and signature aesthetic together.
Rose is incredibly visually driven as a director; she makes incredible pictures. Windmill made its first feature film in 2015, Girl Asleep, and Iâm really proud of my work as Production and Costume designer.
The transition from theatre to film was very natural. I loved being able to create sets with more detail, and costumes with full hair and makeup. Usually, in theatre, performers are doubling up so they have compromised looks, and theatre sets are all designed to Rubix cube from the main set. Thereâs a freedom to film and a restraint to theatre, I love them both for their differences.
Tell us about your work on the forthcoming State Theatre Company South Australia play, After Dinner, which opens this weekend?
After Dinner was written by Andrew Bovell in 1987. It centres around five lonely hearts in a pub bistro. Our set design was inspired by Australian â60s and â70s public bars in Melbourne. We embraced the large size of the stage, which will highlight the desperation of the lonesome hearts â there are quite a few unoccupied tables with peach carnations and babyâs breath.
The characters bring the â80s with them onstage. Director Corey McMahon and I were not interested in creating â80s âclownsâ, recreating an âinternet searchâ version of the 80âs. We are aiming for nuance and believability, but with a slightly heightened feel. I find the â80s has some pretty stylish looks, it was such an interesting time in Australia politically, aspirationally and visually. The clash of American branding with Australiana mixed with silhouettes from the â40s and â50s created a very unique, mutated style, bursting with powerful geometry, colour and pattern.
Where do you typically create?
My work time is usually split between theatres or locations, and with working in my studio. My studio has always been in my home, and this is where I create the production designs â the technical drawings, architectural models, costume sketches, and collages.
My apartment sits above the main street in the old East End of central Adelaide. Living and working here keeps me connected to the machine of the city, I spend a bit of time alone in my studio, so the street keeps me inspired and motivated â sometimes a character literally walks past that inspires a look in a production!
Whatâs next for you?
This year has some fun design projects in store â a production with Melbourne Theatre Company called Astroman â again set in the 1980s â about a young indigenous teen in Geelong whoâs actually a mathematical genius that spends his spare hours in the local video game arcade called the ASTROCADE. Itâs going to be super fun to invent a work based around â80s video games.
Iâm also in development with Windmill Pictures on our next film School Dance, and this is another â80s inspired idea⌠starting to see a pattern this year! Iâm really looking forward to this film, the conversations have stared with our Director of Photography, and the ideas are exciting and have a unique lens on the period. A more artful and unusual version of the period is emerging.
Also, late in the year a musical that I designed for Windmill Theatre/State Theatre Company, Rumpelstiltskin, is heading over to the Southbank Centre in London.
Catch Jonathanâs sets and costumes for South Australiaâs State Theatre Companyâs new performance After Dinner, opening in Adelaide this Saturday, April 7th.

jack black will always have a special place in my heart, heâs not necessarily the best at acting but the energy and personality he brings can NEVER be ignored
34 favorite actress?
can i cheat a bit and use a voice actress? cause i just adore jennifer hale, sheâs just got that kind of voice that you can always tell its hers and she does some really solid voicework.
35 who is your celebrity crush?
dave grohl, heâs such a fucking babe
36 favorite movie?
SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD!! its SUCH a well-made stylistically brilliant film with REALLY good casting that sold the tone so fucking well, with really good music and the most brilliant editing I have ever seen.
37 do you read a lot? whats your favorite book?
i dont read much, no, but i loved when i read To Kill a Mockingbird in high school, just so many profound themes working perfectly in tandem with one another.
38 money or brains?
as in which would i rather have or which would i prefer in a person? id go with money for myself so i can like be happy and content in most aspects of life and like be able to give more gifts to my friends and family and stuff, but brains in another person cause i am just REALLY bad with talking to people and making friends so having someone that can pick up on all my unusual cues and that would know how to keep me in a conversation would help a ton.
39 do you have a nickname? what is it?
some older friends call me âfrancisâ, and people at work call me âPTâ - ponytail, because i wear my hair back when i work.
44 what is your biggest fear?
the ruling going on today, if this anti-net neutrality stuff passes, then i could possibly lose contact with all of my friends and pretty much my entire support system, and my future that i am already afraid of is absolutely going to be worse with how much im going to have to pay to even get the basics that are provided to us now. all my online shopping? nope. online research? nah. my entire possible line of work?? good luck uploading anything to sites you cant access buddy.
47 what type of house do you live in? (big, small, etc)
i am fortunate enough to be in a pretty big house right now
50 what was the last text you sent?
âThey said itâs gonna be a few minutesâ - to my manager
51 how old were you when you found out santa wasnât real?
like 8 or 9, i knew cause i was awake and heard my dad walking out with the presents, i could hear the wrapping paper rustling and him cursing when he almost dropped something. he was really mad when i told him i knew for some reason lol
52 what is your dream car?
a tesla, such beautiful, energy efficient cars
55 what is your dream job?
i would love to be a journalist, one promoting completely impartial by-the-book news and investigations, being the change we all want to see in news media.
58 do you have freckles?
nope
62 do you still watch cartoons?
absolutely, three of my favorite pieces of media PERIOD are cartoons, BoJack Horseman, Samurai Jack, and Avatar: The Last Airbender. animation deserves to be respected, it is an art form unlike any other with such humongous possibilities for visual expression and storytelling.
67 what are your hobbies?
i love video games so much like jfc
68 can you draw?
sort of, ive never been really good at it and my hands are not very steady, and i cant do figures very well, but if theres something i need to convey that i cant through words i can draw it.
71 tea or coffee?
i like them both, but prefer coffee more often. should try more teas though, sometimes coffee makes me feel like trash lol
77 do you miss anyone right now?
of course, i miss my last group of friends dearly, they were all such wonderful people that were constantly enjoyable to be around, everyone except for one of them, we disagreed and clashed on a lot of things, and our personalities just did not mix well at all, so it caused a lot of problems and ended in me being ghosted out. and of course i miss someone else buuut not as much anymore, weâre solid friends now, i just cant help but miss some things.
80 what is your biggest pet peeve?
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO GO 60 MILES AN HOUR IN A 35 AT 5 PM WHERE YOU NEED TO WEAVE IN AND OUT OF LANES OVER AND OVER AGAIN JUST SLOW DOWN AND STOP PUTTING OTHER PEOPLEâS LIVES AT RISK BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GET SOMEWHERE THIRTY SECONDS EARLIER

94 favorite lyrics right now
tbh the entirety of Sugar weâre Goin Down by Fall Out Boy, itâs been stuck in my head for a while mostly because its fun to sing but MAN there is some interesting writing going on here, positively loaded with metaphor and double-meanings.

answer all the evens!
*rubs hands together* Letâs do this.
2. Favourite colour when you were younger, and now?When I was little, everything was Pepto-Bismol pink. Iâve since matured (âmatureââgood joke) into more pastel shades of just about any color. Pink and purple are still mainstays, though.4. Are you in love right now?Itâs always tough to tell the difference between love, infatuation, and the placebo effect. TL;DR: Weâll see, but I donât think so.6. Are you an optimist, realist, opportunist, or pessimist?Probably a realist? I like to serve things sunny-side-up, but thereâs no point in getting peopleâs hopes up if thereâs no reason to. That being said, thereâs usually a reason to.8. Do you own stickers and stationery?Do I?!Â
10. Do you wear dresses and skirts?Sure. Pants/trousers are more practical and sometimes theyâre more comfortable, but I feel more (confident? grown-up? pretty? presentable? all/none of the above???) in skirts. When itâs colder, I like to compromise by putting cute leggings/tights on under my skirts.12. Does time go by fast or slow for you?I guess that depends on how much I enjoy whateverâs happening. Also, when I look back on my childhood, it feels like it was so recent that I could go back if I wanted, but when I try to remember what happened last week, it feels like it was aeons ago. The passage of time is weird. What even is time14. Favourite sweet food?Literally any sweet food. Except for flan, oddly enough. Nothing against the culture; itâs just something about the texture, I think, that I canât get past.16. Space, ocean, city, or forest?There are solid arguments to be made for all of them, and itâs a tough choice, but ultimately S P A C E.18. Comfort book?Very nearly any of them. I do usually default to Lord of the Rings or The Night Circus, though.20. Do you fall in love easily?Thatâs kind of tough to say. I guess it depends on where you draw the line between love and infatuation. When I was younger, I had a different âcrushâ almost every week, but looking back, I think it might be fair to say that that was because I saw other girls doing it, and I figured that it was normal/expected, so I convinced myself that the crushes were real. Nowadays, I still have minor crushes a lot, but I typically can step back and assess whether or not itâs worth pursuing. Usually, itâs not.TL;DR: Sure. See also: question 4.22. Describe your life in 3 words.Going surprisingly well.(Iâve just jinxed it, havenât I?)24. Do you wear fake nails, or paint your nails?I generally donât do either, but if I want to spice things up, Iâll typically paint my nails. Also, living with Thea, itâs ridiculously difficult to escape the house without some polish somewhere on your hands. God bless @ask-moritz-stiefel for letting her experiment on him.26. Do you lie?Can I plead the Fifth?Really, I try not to lie, especially not to my friends, but I have told white lies to save face (my own and someone elseâs). Iâm honest in ask memes, though, 99.9% of the time.28. Have you ever cried at a book or a movie?I think a more appropriate question would be âhave I ever not cried at a book or a movieâ. Although, thereâs this weird thing with movies where I generally wonât cry during the sad scenes themselves; instead, Iâll start thinking about them and the impact they had on the characters and the connections they have to my life during the credits and then I cry. Happened today with Coco, in fact. Stellar movie. You must, must, must (signed with four fingers) watch it. #notspon.30. Marriage or kids?Iâm assuming youâre asking if I want either of those, rather than asking me to choose between them. And yes, Iâd like both, eventually, but theyâre not even remotely a priority.32. Whoâs your 3 AM thought?I mean, usually Iâm asleep, soâŚÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ34. Favourite holiday?ALL OF THEM.Honestly, though, I love Halloween, because I always have been and always will be a sucker for playing dress-up and for eating candy. I also love Christmas, because even though itâs still largely a religious holiday, itâs been commercialized to the point where non-Christian and non-religious people celebrate it and make it about being kind and generous to everyone, and itâs really cool to me that everyone can share in that, regardless of whether or not theyâre Christian. Also, Halloween and Christmas produce the best music. Hands down.36. Cat or dog person?I default to cats, but put just about any animal in front of me and Iâll get excited and ask if I can pet it.I should clarify that I mean domestic animals. Iâm a little bit foolish sometimes, but I donât have a death wish.38. Favourite time period (80s, 60s, etc.)?I wouldnât like to live in any period other than this oneâattitudes toward not-cis-straight-white-men, and general living conditions, and all that��but I do like the general aesthetic (fashion, technology, etc.) of the 1940s.40. The best dream/worst nightmare youâve ever had?I get some pretty bizarre dreams when my life is going well or when thereâs a lot (good, bad, or indifferent) going on. I have had the occasional âseriesâ of dreams, though, where one nightâs dream will have a relatively fleshed-out plot, and the next nightâs dream picks up where the first left off. Thatâs always super-satisfying, until I foRGET WHAT THE DREAMS WERE ABOUT.The worst nightmare would probably be the recurring one where Iâm standing in a room with somebody (a different somebody every time, but always someone I care aboutâcurrent roster includes just about everybody here, as well as my parents and my Tante Heleneâshe and I were super-close when I was growing up), and out of nowhere, the floor will collapse under that somebody and theyâre gone. I try to grab their hand or their shirt or anything as they fall, and they always brush against my fingers, but I always miss, and thereâs nothing I can do but watch them fall. Without fail, they maintain eye contact with me until they fall out of sight and I wake up, and itâs awful.42.Thereâs no 42. I could make a joke about it being âthe meaning of life, the universe, and everythingâ and how itâs not there, but Iâm not @ask-melchior-gabor, so I wonât.Sorry, Melchi. I love you.44. Do you flirt?I flirt more with my friends than I do with potential love interests. Make of that what you will.46. Do you blush?Always. Always, always, always.48. Are you a crier? Do you smile?First, this is two questions in one. Thatâs cheating. Second, theyâre two completely different questions. What? Third, the answer to both of them is yes.50. Last love?Well, if itâs my last love ever, I donât know yet, do I?
That was really thought-provoking; thanks, Ilse!
Love,Melitta
