#i need PP4 now

[pinkpastels113]

my thoughts/comments/highlights on anna kendrick's call her daddy podcast episode

love that she is obsessed with bart's bees pomegranate chapstick

i want to see her naturally curly hair!! :(( im glad she's more comfortable with it now and loving it

kendrick is insecure about not having gone to college :((. i agree with cooper that if you know what you want to do and have the resources and pathway in mind to do it, you don't have to go to college but it is totally valid to be insecure about it bc of societal norms

she's been in the industry since she was 10, and she talked about her journey that is further explained in her book scrappy little nobody

her parents thought and realized that she would be okay/"she made it" when she bought her first home in her 20s and brought them to it

brittany texts her "i know you're not gonna replyy but-" a lot

"brittany brings the party, i bring the grumpiness" "please call brittany if you need help with party invitations"

pp4

she has no idea if it's happening

if rebel is adamant about it she would do it

everyone is so busy and successful that it's impossible though to get everyone in the same room but the best reason for her to do a pp4 would be to have and be with everyone in the same room again

HAHAHAH HER GAY/joking PANIC ABOUT KRISTEN STEWART

she didn't tell anyone that she was doing alice darling when filming and even for a while when it came out bc she didn't want anyone to tell her to not do it. bc she just got out of an abusive relationship herself

she literally went to couples' therapy with the abusive ex and thought she was crazy in front of the licensed professional omg

she doesn't have a clear answer for "what are the universal signs of a red flag in a toxic relationship" bc how are you supposed to get into the mind of someone who is trying their best to hide them and emotionally manipulating you? you also don't spend your life looking for those red flags, they just happen like bear traps in a forest (lmao pp2) sooo it's really hard. also sometimes, people question their own memory and sense of reality and have "did this really happen" moments afterwards

she thinks her ex truly believed that he was doing nothing wrong and that she was the crazy one. bc he is not an actor or performer

cooper: it's so hard being with someone that you love for so long and then it suddenly turns abusive or manipulative, like you can't just leave when someone says "why don't you just leave"

cooper: i think it would be weird to not be affected by someone that manipulated you in a way (even years later) bc it distorts your reality

it felt like jumping a cliff suddenly pitching herself to be in charge of the woman of the hour movie. she's terrified that she's "the most experienced person there"

the camera angles in the parking lot scene truly portrayed the dead silence and terror and anticipation of a woman walking alone in the dark in a parking lot with nobody else around

there were a bunch of scenes in the movie where she was glad/noticed how being a woman director made a difference to how it would be portrayed and understood by female audiences about what exactly is happening. she is okay with the 20% of male audiences who prob wouldn't understand

kendrick is very avoidant and not in the mood for dating right now; she knows she has prospects though

she will not even go into a conversation with a man romantically if he has not been or currently in therapy. if they do start something she wants them to do couples therapy despite her previous experiences with it. it is not a guarantee of anything tho!!

what do you bring to a relationship?

anna: i will be the bodyguard and tell the waiter that they got the wrong order. i feel like i'm compensating for my short height

she feels like her humor is so dry sometimes that people mistook it as she being dead serious when she was not.

[brilliant-red-eternity]

I always wanted to watch Cowboy Bebop but Urobuchi’s debut Requiem for the Phantom was also nice, even though both lovers ended up dead. That probably would have awaited us in PP as well.

I think you're right. Urobuchi quit because he couldn’t be a storyteller anymore and he didn’t want to see PP being flushed down the toilet and made into a meaningless but profitable franchise.

There was an event two weeks ago where Shiotani, Fukami and Ubukata answered a few questions on stage. It was like an interview between the staff and the PP fans. At some point the staff mentioned that they were pressured by the producer at Fuji Television to change the main characters and to stop telling PP in chronological order. The writers and the director were firmly against it but the producer insisted. He wanted to continue PP endlessly like a television series. Providence, PP3 and First Inspector were planned and realized simultaneously. I think it was either compromising with the producers (who have all the money) or to stop working on PP. I really don’t know how successful PP3 was. Does anyone know? I doubt it has reached the popularity of Urobuchi’s PP because this man has a talent for getting to the heart of a story without needlessly digressing. The problem with PP3 is that it lacks focus, even the authors admit that.

When asked about PP4, Shiotani joked that there will be a continuation of the series within the next 30 years. I don't want to be pessimistic, but I think the remaining authors and the director won't continue working on PP if the producers make silly demands again. Maybe that’s why they give us little glimpses of romantic Kouaka right now to reverse the pressure a bit and let the fans decide? Idk. It just feels like the story of Urobuchi’s characters is over. Shion and Yayoi start a new life together, the old team was split into SAD and PSB and Akane isn’t an inspector anymore so she will probably lose her leading role.

I also found PP3 to be a shallow sausage fest. Maiko playing the good housewife annoyed me a bit. Also, the big bosomed evil woman at Bifrost and the divaesque behaviour of superstar Karina? What a boring cliché. The staff was probably over-burdened with the task of creating an entirely new story but they seem to love PP so I can understand why they didn’t just cancel the series. I just wish they were more sensitive when it comes to portraying women.

As for the relationship between Akane and Ko, I will check my opinion again as soon as I’ve gone to the movies. It really sounds a little strange. Why don’t they show Kogami’s face while Akane is being tortured? He’s angry all the time so it can’t be that hard. Also, why do they make it so difficult to detect the handcuffs on Akane and Ko’s wrists? Who censored the screenplay? However, there are a few things I really like: the phone call, Saiga’s talk with Kogami, the hospital scene, the “I protect you from an explosion by jumping between your legs and lie on top of you” scene and Akane’s letter and her deeply human emotions.

I agree. The team couldn’t fully commit to the romantic part of Kouaka in Providence, whatever it is that’s holding them back. I often hear that the authors don't like Kogami, even Urobuchi implied that Ko is a total failure because he always makes the wrong decisions. This attitude towards his character is certainly not helpful. But I don't think Akane and Ko have grown tired of each other. Akane has learned to keep her problems bottled up. She has become more reserved and it naturally creates distance. Anyway, she looks totally happy at the end of FI which is probably why I haven't plunged into depression yet.

I think there are indeed some differences in perception between East and West. My Japanese teacher used to say that learning Japanese is not for everyone because it takes more intuition than logic to understand the person facing you and you may also need a degree in psychology ;) But haha, yes! When it comes to love, we are all the same. Japanese Kouakas are really devoted to their ship. Nowhere else can you find so much smut and porn as with the kawaii Japanese female Kouaka. PP is a true aphrodisiac. Maybe we should also write some more Kouaka smut! We’ll probably need these fics as therapy after PPP.

This is a weird ask but is there any reason JP kouaka fandom is so convinced of Kouaka post PPP?After Ubukata and Fulani doubled down on the fact they are nothing more than comrades fighting a shared enemy and they are nothing special to each other.And they said it right before PPP release as well knowing people would speculate heavily(which they did and still doing regardless).The whole thing is so confusing to me.

I think the writers and animators taunted that poor fandom so much with Kokane, that the fandom couldn’t give two craps about what they say anymore. Also, they understand Japanese so there may have been pieces of dialogue in the movie that fueled their resolve. In the Psycho-Fed there was a little keychain with Akane and Kogami. I think it’s the first time we get merch that is just the two of them in the same piece.

The live reading was about Akane and Kogami talking too. I know none of this is explicitly romantic, but in PPP their dynamic is different. Most of the time Akane seems pissed at Kogami while Kogami seems cold. Some people may have interpreted this as something personal going on between them. In the end, he rescues her and he also gets super pissed and worried when he reads her letter.

Overall, it’s like they’re past the point of formality and are now involved with each other in some new way. Or the writers just didn’t study these two characters enough. Akane taking Kogami’s cigarette right out of his mouth means they’re closer in a way. I can’t imagine her ever doing that before. Kogami from S1, the one who told Akane to kill Makishima, wouldn’t give two shits if Akane set Nona Tower on fire. But now he cares and is clearly upset.

It’s the beautiful closing of a circle. Akane is making a stand and Kogami disagrees and wants to stop her, but he can’t. Kinda how she tried to stop him before. In a way he has to “lose” her now.

Interesting too that she waited until he went to the isolation facility before she did what she was planning to do. Maybe he’s the only person who could’ve stopped her.

Again, they leave these things in the air… people will make conjectures. What can we say? The PP fandom is full of hopeless romantics.

Frederica and Homura as potential love interests?

Ok, before writing this post, I must admit that this thought has been wandering in my mind for some time and I will do my best to be as analytical as I can in the explanation. First of all, I've truly and wholeheartedly supported Shinkane since season 1 and I am sure that before or after, they will be endgame (in Psycho Pass' meaning, well... offscreen if we're lucky enough), so this post is just an attempt to see what is happening.

Let's make a premise: PP3, among all the seasons of PP, is the one that addressed romance in a more evident way, somehow. Not that it is a priority and it's fair as it is, since the focus of the series is basically human nature and its reaction to a world dominated by AI, but among the three seasons, PP3 caressed the topic. Not that it wasn't already addressed in the previous installments (Shion and Yayoi, Kaori's wedding, Akane's growing fascination, and not-so-well-hidden attraction and love for Kougami, Mika and her schoolmate, just to say), but starting with Sinners of the System, something else happened. Masaoka and Sae, Sugo and his friend's wife (tell me whatever, but he seemed to care a little bit too much and I found something similar in Arata's behavior towards Maiko)... and in season 3, the already mentioned Arata, both with Maiko (the hospital scene) and Karina, but also with Irie and Mao (I loved the whole music box scene) and Mao *not-so-well-hidden* fancying Kei. Did I mention the brief and glorious Shinkane's scenes? The cherry blossoms in First Inspector screamed "LOVE" in caps lock.

Well, ladies first, so let's talk about the mysterious and glamorous agent of the SAD: Hanashiro Frederica. When her character was revealed, all of us (or at least, the majority) thought that she could be a potential threat or a possible enemy. So far, it seems that apart from bigger fanservice than all the girls in PP, a still-secret agenda, and the fact that she managed to recruit Kougami, Gino and Sugo in her team (as well as granting them some privileges), there isn't any evidence that she could be an enemy. Yes, the whole Ministry of Foreign Affairs/SAD goals and mission aren't clear, that's why I hope we might get PP4 or a dedicated special, in order to understand more about them and her apparently personal motivations too. Now... thanks to the lovely @kumapillow who kindly translated the SAD extra chapter, something made me wonder. I already said in another post that Frederica seems to have a soft spot for Kougami. Just a few words about Kougami. So far, with the exception of the novels, where his feelings are clearer, he's never shown particular interest in women (or relationships in general). In the profiling book, it's said that he doesn't remember his first love, but it's also said that he would let Sybil choose for him once the time comes, until the movie updated version when it's said that his favorite type of girl is a companion who can keep up a conversation. Considering that in season 1 he was revenge-driven and Makishima-absorbed, romance was practically out of question (also, if we consider that he's been a workaholic since he was an Inspector, I'm not this impressed if he never had a proper relationship). Complete silence in season 2, then in the movies he said that wherever he goes, he's punctually involved in some conflict, aka... no time for romance again (for ghost!Makishima's joy). I read sometimes that the fact that he declined Shion's advances in episode 18 with the sentence "I don't think we are each others' type" was eloquent about his sexuality, since he probably is gay or bi, at least. I don't think he is, but simply, being the kind person he is, Kougami just found a colloquial way to remember Shion where her heart truly laid (and in the novel, it's more obvious). No surprise, during the fight against Rutaganda, when the mercenary said that listening to Kougami made him happy like he was listening to some Wagner's piéce, Kougami promptly answers that he could have rather listened to those words from a glamorous beauty than from him (he used the word "bijin" there). I won't mention all the Shinkane subtle of the movie, but it was truly obvious how things had changed for Akane and Kougami and what could have been happened if the mercenaries hadn't come. Case 3 shows that his relationship with the fair sex still hasn't progressed this much... though I LOVED Kougami's interactions with Tenzing and the teasing of the little girl who said that he reminded her of her dad (ok, that's progress, since in a radio drama both he and Gino made a small child crying because of their idiocy) and I headcanon that in the years past Case 3 Kou had some chances to hear back from Tenzing (because of MoFA and Frederica's care), when it comes to the blonde colleague... I guess that things haven't changed this much. Now, so far, Kougami has NEVER shown any sign of reciprocating Frederica's possible feelings, but it seems that he's the only one who knows how to cheer her up or to understand her. Coming back to Frederica, after this digression, that's the core: she technically has all the qualities Kougami would possibly need. She's a glamorous beauty (hello there, reference to the gekijouban). She's a companion who could keep up a conversation. This point is trickier, because the conversation under the moonlight (now that it comes to my mind, it was also said that if he ever had to set a date, he would probably talk about work or taking somebody to stargaze), which largely reminds me of his conversation with Akane in the movie (I'm talking about the structure of the scene in general), shows that

Frederica too is perfectly able to lecture Kougami and pull the shits out of him about his true motives for keeping on traveling, she's been interested in him since the lessons with professor Saiga, but also... the fact that she mentioned his mother, I think was some kind of a rehash of the novel version of the conversation between Akane and Kou. I was under the impression that Ubukata and Shiotani were trying to test the waters... Also, Frederica is a skilled fighter, she has a no-nonsense attitude and she's pretty harsh in what she says, but she's also friendly, humorous, and caring (the days they spent together with Tenzing). Then the renowned scene of the two of them making the deal... ok, I need to admit that in the beginning, I didn't see it as malicious, neither I do it now, but... mhhh... sharing the same bottle of water to make a deal... well... kinda intimate, right? Not that Kougami made a fuss, but Frederica was... pleased? After all, she didn't do any of this with Sugo (also, her approach to him was more formal) and we still don't know how she recruited Gino (I think it happened because of Kougami, after Akane's demotion)... I don't know, but it seems to me that her approach toward Kougami (at least in Case 3 and in the manga extras) is more personal... after all, when she approached him the first time, she was quite intrigued, since she wanted to take a look at the face of a celebrity like him (all said while pleasantly smiling). The extra chapter shows that while Gino and Sugo's efforts to help their chief were wasted (not for us who read), only Kougami's proposal was well received by her. Shooting like in a guerrilla field... after all, Frederica is a tough one (just like Akane) and Kougami knows it very well... like Gino adds at the end, she's definitely a female version of him, but she also is somebody able to kick Kou's glorious ass (just like Akane). Now, time will say where the truth is, but I feel like that if Ubukata and Shiotani keep on following the route "there's a deep respect and a bond which goes beyond love and romance between Shinkane... and also Kougami doesn't see Akane in that way", and instead they choose to spice things up (but I don't think so) Frederica might be the one chosen. Luckily enough, our dear former Enforcer seems to have chosen the celibate warrior monk route, but I'm still sure that things can change and in the end, the most natural outcome will be Shinkane. Well... since the post has become longer than I expected, I'll write another time of Shizuka and Akane, but thanks for reading until now!

PP4 - A Story of Us (8/25)

I Tried so Hard

Chapter Preview:

Amy was feeling proud of her pitches. But of course, they would make the finals. One round was all it needed to reveal the real enemies and Amy wasn't scared of any of them either.

Okay, so maybe DSM bothered her a little. But that was mostly due to their two new additions, the chillingly synchronized twins and the tall Adonis in the guy-liner who literally looked down on everyone else on stage.

Niko, one of the hosts from a group that Amy remembered beating in the Worlds along with DSM when they competed, jumped in after the round was done. "What did I tell you, folks? One round and we have all our finalists determined. Let's give a moment to applaud the amazing teams who won't be joining us in the next rounds and the ones who have made it."

Amy beamed, exchanging a look with Beca who equally exuded the confidence of an absolute boss. But of course all the Bellas were bosses of the acapella world. No one can ever take them down. Only themselves, as Amy recalled, but that was another matter on its own.

Once the Bellas were in perfect harmony with each other, like they were right now, no one stood a chance at all. Not even the self-assured Kommissar, or her manic right-hand man and their acapella team of BDSM-convention rejects.

Trace and VJ escorted the eliminated teams off stage while Jules took over the hosting duties. "Okay, now that we have our finalist, do you all remember what we said about the perks?" he asked and he was met with a chorus of replies asking what it was. Jules smiled, "The winner of our preliminary rounds, the last acapella team standing, shall receive an all-expense paid trip to Buenos Aires for their team for some perfect R&R, be invited to perform at the Halloween Bash – where all participants will also be invited to attend – and get to decide the order of performances for the finals, allowing themselves to secure a place most comfortable to them."

The announcement was met with "oh's" and "ah's" from the crowd. The vacation was nice, another opportunity to perform was all well and good too, but Amy knew that the real prize here was the last thing Jules said. If the Bellas win, they could decide when best to go. They could have DSM go first or last, depending on whichever could put more pressure on them. The first to perform in a contest would be the most nerve-wracked, and from what Amy understood, going last was just as nerve-wracking for some as well.

It was a competition-sanctioned chance to play mind-games with their opponents.

Joe and Niko got the crowd to settle down. Once they did, Jules turned to the wheel of musical categories. The wheel spun and landed on its category. "I've Tried So Hard!" the remaining members of the Filharmonic chorused, and the timer was set to five minutes and twenty seconds.

Linkin Park this round, huh? Amy thought. She stole a glance at Beca who looked excited about it.

GRADUATION DAY

Summary: PP4 wishful thinking opening scene expanded because y’all are animals and I love you.

Rating: M for masturbation (and head too but head doesn’t begin with M)

Words: 4K | Read it below or on ao3

Never before has the sound of a hand on a door caused quite such a sudden, deafening silence. It’s broken quickly, of course, by the sound of idle chatter, of Aubrey promising Emily that it doesn’t even look that bad.

Finally, what seems like a lifetime after the rest of the Bellas graduated, their Legacy is now sporting a cap and gown, her years of hard work at Barden University coming to an end, paying off. It’s difficult not to feel like a proud parent, truth be told. They were there to welcome Emily into the school, into the once upon a time failing Bellas, and they’ve gotten to watch her grow and flourish, so today is a big deal. It’s a really, really big deal.

“Why does it have to be right there?” Emily whines, her tone exasperated. “On the end of my nose? Of all places? Today?!”

“Emily, focus,” Aubrey demands, and it’s evident she’s preparing for one of her motivational, sometimes helpful (sometimes not so much) speeches. “It’s a zit. Everybody gets zits. You can barely see it underneath your concealer, and nobody is focusing on that today. This is your graduation, this is your day. So I want you to go out there, forget about that tiny blemish and walk with your head held high. You did it, you’re a college graduate! That’s a huge deal. Can we please, please just focus on that?”

There’s a slight groan, the sound of a defeated sigh most likely followed by heavily slumping shoulders, then Emily seems to calm. At least as calm as Emily Junk ever can be, anyway.

“Fine. Fine, you’re right. I’m gonna go out there, and I’m gonna own this day.”

“That’s the spirit!” Aubrey chirps, hands probably resting against the younger girl’s shoulders as if she’s ready to send her off into the boxing ring. “Let’s go.”

There’s a pause, possibly while Emily looks over her reflection one more time, and then the sound of hurried footsteps fills the room, the door swinging open and then creaking it’s way all too slowly back shut.

And there’s that silence again. Silent, save for the sound of suppressed breathing, of a small pant that’d been held back for the last few moments.

“God,” Beca mumbles, her words followed by a relieved sigh of her own. She’s pressed back against the closed stall door, faded jeans halfway past her knees. Her line of sight moves downward, a look of worry gracing her pale features. “Do you think they heard us?”

Blue eyes drift upward to meet with the other’s, a hunger glazing her stare, and Chloe quickly shakes her head. “I don’t think so.”

It would be so easy right now to end their moment. For Chloe to pull herself up from the floor, where her knees rest uncomfortably against the cold, hard white tiles. Nothing screams ‘mood killer’ quite like two of your oblivious best friends talking about zits when you’re about to fuck your girlfriend, after all.

But then Chloe’s gaze meets with Beca’s, and she’s reminded of only a few moments prior, when the two had hurried in here with their fingers intertwined, bodies craving one another’s touch. So much so that they’d made do with a (probably not the most hygienic) bathroom stall, because they’d just needed each other that damn badly.

She thinks about how she’d pushed Beca up against the door, the brunette’s fingers fumbling to slide the lock as their lips pressed hungrily against each other’s, barely room to breathe between them. Chloe’s fingers had worked their way messily into Beca’s previously neatly styled hair, and she’d heard that familiar, desperate whimper rise from the back of the other girl’s throat as she’d tugged just a little too harshly on mousy locks, and God, Chloe is back in that moment all over again.

Beca doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to stop this, either. Her fingers haven’t moved from where they’d been tangled up in auburn curls, though Chloe feels a brief tug, an almost pleading stare shot down her way, and she knows the mood’s still there for Beca, too.

“Shh,” Chloe places a long finger in front of her lips, “Not too loud, okay?” Her voice is soft and husked, a need behind it in spite of the quiet volume. Normally, her goal is to pull the loudest, most exaggerated sounds she can from her girlfriend’s tiny frame. If people think Beca Mitchell sounds good when she’s singing, they have no idea just how incredible she sounds when she’s moaning Chloe’s name, begging for her release.

But they’ve kept this up so far. They promised they’d keep this between them, just until after Emily’s graduation. They’ve wanted to take the time to get to know one another as girlfriends, and not just friends.

(Then again, have they ever really been just friends? If you were to ask them, then yes, but many would say otherwise.)

While Chloe’s gaze remains up on Beca’s face as she begins to peel her skinny jeans further down her legs, she can’t help but let her eyes lower, heart pounding in anticipation of what’s to come.

(Quite literally.)

“Step out,” she instructs, aware that she could do this without entirely unclothing her girlfriend’s bottom half, but where’s the fun in that? They already have only a small, compact space to work with, and Chloe will be damned if she doesn’t make the most of what she can.

Beca doesn’t question her, she simply follows instruction, until her jeans are laid in a heap on the floor by Chloe’s knees, pouty lips finally meeting with the warm, soft skin of the other girl’s inner thigh.

“Do you know how sexy you are?” Chloe questions in a hushed tone, lips pressing their way in an upward path until she’s ghosting kisses along the fabric of her panties.

“Says the girl between my legs,” Beca breathes, head tilting back some against the door. Her fingers bunch a little more tightly in Chloe’s hair, almost like she’s trying to guide her, and the redhead lets a soft, breathy chuckle fall from her lips, vibrating rhythmically against pale skin.

“Easy, Bec.” Chloe pulls back just a fraction, just to gaze up at her favorite face. She notices that Beca’s stare is still intently on her, and feels a swell of pride rising inside of her chest. “I’m the one fucking you, remember?”

“Fine,” the brunette grumbles, grip loosening just a little bit, and Chloe smirks to herself as she presses her lips to the soft skin of Beca’s hip bone, the placement causing her body to tense beneath her touch.

If they had more time, Chloe would take this more slowly. She’d tease and really work her up, but considering where they are and why they’re actually here, they have to be smart.

They have their hotel room to completely violate later, anyway.

As her fingers curl under the hem of tight panties, slowly beginning to peel the fabric down the other girl’s thighs, her gaze drifts downward, and Chloe realizes she doesn’t really have to do too much to get her worked up. Beca is there all on her own.

“Damn, Becs.” Her teeth sink down gently into her lower lip, the taste of her gloss bitter against her tongue. “Who knew you were such an exhibitionist?”

She can try to deny it all she wants, but the evidence is right there before her eyes. Her arousal is streaked across the top of her thighs, glistening against soft, pale skin.

“Maybe we’ll have to do this public stuff more often,” Chloe teases, lips reconnecting with hot skin before Beca has the chance to retort. All she manages is a muffled whine, her back relaxing against the door as Chloe slides her panties right the way down toward her feet. She nudges her ankle gently until Beca gets the hint, and then she’s stepping out of the damp material, the inviting sight before Chloe’s eyes causing a familiar ache between her legs.

Beca opens her mouth to say something, though she doesn’t quite get to start, because Chloe has hooked an arm underneath one of her legs, and is lifting it to rest lazily over her shoulder, tongue finally meeting with the sensitive bundle before her.

“Fuck,” Beca hisses quietly, the initial contact clearly something she’d craved. Chloe wants to comment on how good she tastes, on how smug she feels for how wet her girlfriend already is, but she’s too preoccupied in the moment, tongue flattening to lick a heavy strip right the way up her clit.

Each time she tastes Beca Mitchell, it’s like the first time all over again. She’s something she craves, so badly that Chloe thinks about it when she’s alone, her own fingers the only thing she has to satisfy her desperate need. And each time they’re in this position, each time her tongue is free to explore, it’s always so much better than her imagination, so much better than she remembers.

Already, she can feel the way Beca’s hips have begun to move, her body tensing beneath her touch. Chloe has one hand holding onto the other girl’s thigh, her thumb tracing small circles against her skin, though she brings the other over to slide a long finger between her folds. Already it’s slick with arousal, and Chloe can’t resist letting herself get lost in the moment, her tongue burying its way inside of her center.

“Fuck, Chlo,” Beca whimpers, her volume a little louder this time. Chloe really can’t bring herself to care, the sound of her girlfriend’s voice only drives her to move faster, to slide her tongue more harshly inside of her. Her finger, still coated with Beca’s arousal, slides idly along her clit, until she’s beginning to rub tight circles against the sensitive flesh, a quiet moan of her own vibrating against her clit as Beca tugs more harshly onto her hair.

If ever there was a bad time to get a phone call, it would be right now. With Beca’s hips moving to the point of her practically fucking Chloe’s face, thighs clenching as her tongue curves inside of her.

“Ignore it,” Beca breathes, words desperate and broken, and while her tongue is buried deeply inside of the other girl, Chloe can’t help the way a soft laugh falls from her lips, a puff of warm air evidently hitting Beca in just the right place to pull a drawn out moan from the back of her throat.

Like she’d even question answering right now? No, Chloe is having way too much fun, she’s too turned on by the feeling of walls clenching around her, of her finger sliding so easily over her girlfriend’s swollen clit.

Chloe is wearing a skirt. A short one, at that. And it’s so hard to keep from reaching a hand between her legs and touching herself, because her desperate aching is growing only more and more intense the longer this goes on. But she refrains, wanting to focus solely on the other girl. Her fingers grip a little more tightly onto Beca’s thigh, tongue savoring the taste as she pulls her girlfriend nearer to her orgasm.

By the time she comes undone, they’re both a panting, moaning mess. Chloe licks the traces of Beca’s release from the tops of her inner thighs, fingers still working her slowly down from her high. She loves the way her girlfriend squirms, how her body reacts to every touch, every movement. Beca’s fingers are still caught in her hair, repetitive moaning falling almost lazily from her lips.

It really doesn’t matter that they’re in a public restroom, and that this should probably be considered dirty more so than anything else, Chloe always finds that there’s something so sensual about the two of them together. She can fuck her girlfriend so hard that she’s screaming her name, begging for more, yet it’s still so sensual, so passionate. Because it’s them.

“Holy fuck,” Beca finally breathes out, her body slumping back against the door as Chloe pulls back and gently rests the other girl’s foot down on the floor.

“I agree,” Chloe smirks as she presses a small kiss to Beca’s inner thigh, before finally standing to meet her face to face. She takes pride in the way Beca’s chest is moving faster with her heavy breaths, her expression saying as such. Beca can’t even make some sarcastic comment, because it’s clear she’s still trying to come down from the cloud Chloe’s tongue has apparently put her on. “You are seriously so sexy,” she repeats her earlier sentiment, fingertips reaching out to settle delicately beneath Beca’s chin. Chloe tilts her face upward, until she can press her lips gently against Beca’s. Her voice is soft and quiet as she continues, lips ghosting across the other’s. “You taste so good, huh?”

It doesn’t matter how many times they do this, how many times Chloe tells Beca just how much of a turn on she is, the brunette always seems at least slightly bashful in return, and right now is no different as a tinge of pink washes across her pale cheeks.

“I’m serious, Bec,” she reaches for her girlfriend’s hand, lifting it up to drape her arm around her neck, “I was literally almost fucking myself to the way you taste. God, and the way you sound...”

Somehow, it’s like her words have sent a shot of confidence through the shorter girl, maybe a little inspiration, even, and Chloe watches the way glistening eyes scan her face, arm tightening some around her neck. “Oh yeah?” Beca questions, the briefest hint of a smirk threatening her lips. “Just almost?”

“Mhm,” Chloe chuckles quietly, “Just almost.”

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out where Beca’s mind is going. Where it’s already gone, in fact. And by the time slender fingers reach out to graze slowly across her own, Chloe is already resigning herself to the fact that this is happening. Her gaze catches Beca’s, their eyes staring deeply into one another’s, and that air is returning, that moment coming back all over again.

“What if I wanted to see that?” Beca just above whispers, palm cupping the back of Chloe’s hand. The redhead glances down briefly, though brings her gaze back up to her girlfriend’s, the corner of her lips curved upward slightly as she allows Beca’s hand to guide her own beneath the short material of her skirt.

“Mm,” Chloe pretends to think for a moment, voice lowering to that same soft husk all over again. “Is that what you want? You want me to fuck myself for you?”

Having relinquished control (at least for now) to the other girl, Chloe feels the fabric of her own panties beneath the tips of her fingers, Beca’s hand still curled around her own. Presumably, Beca thinks that’s all the response she needs, but Chloe has other ideas.

“You have to ask me nicely,” she teases, though she knows that the feeling between her legs, the way it builds with each passing second, won’t actually let her stop.

“Please,” Beca nods her head, strands of mousy hair falling in her face. Chloe brings her free hand up to brush them aside with her fingertips, stroking it gently behind her ear.

“Please what?”

“Touch yourself.” Beca’s voice is small but strong, there’s a power behind it that causes the arousal to pool only more heavily between Chloe’s legs. “Fuck yourself. For me.”

And that’s the response she needs. That’s the motivation that has her tugging her hand away from Beca’s to slide the damp material of her panties aside, two fingers immediately met with the result of her fucking her girlfriend only moments ago.

Beca watches. No, she stares, and the sight of her girlfriend watching her so intently, waiting for her reaction is just about the biggest turn on Chloe can imagine other than Beca being the one touching her herself. She isn’t going to disappoint her, she’s going to give her a show. And it won’t be forced either, because Chloe has been desperate for this release the entire time, and it takes only moments of her fingers making tight circles against her clit, spreading her arousal between her folds, for Chloe’s teeth to sink into her lower lip, a soft moan to rise from the back of her throat.

Chloe is learning a lot about Beca today. She’s learning that she likes the danger of a public place, and that her eyes sparkle when she gets to watch, to take in the sight of something like this.

Blue eyes stare back, though the faster she begins to move her fingers, the tighter the circles she begins to make, the more difficult it becomes for her to focus, and soon her lids are fluttering shut, coated lashes resting thickly over hooded eyes. And Chloe doesn’t even care to hold back the sound, the way her body responds to the feeling of one finger slipping easily inside of her, her girlfriend’s arm tightening a little bit around her neck. She allows a soft moan to fall from her lips, though it’s muffled by the sound of Beca closing the gap between them, lips parting to press firmly to her own.

Apparently, as much as Beca seems to be enjoying this, she can’t quite hand over full control, because it’s only seconds later that Chloe feels a hand nudging her own out of the way, and soon her fingers are replaced by the feeling of her girlfriend’s pressing down against her clit, coating themselves in arousal and sliding side by side into her center.

“God, you’re so wet,” Beca breathes against her lips, their kiss a little more lazy now; they’re both evidently a little preoccupied elsewhere. Without the need for her own fingers anymore, Chloe presses her palms up against the door, either side of Beca’s head, and pushes her legs further apart to give her girlfriend more room to work, more space to curl her hand and stroke her fingers along her walls in exactly the right place.

Beca knows Chloe’s body by now, the same way Chloe knows Beca’s in return. She knows exactly where to touch her, exactly how hard to pump her fingers in and out, exactly where to curl the tips to touch just the right spots, and Chloe responds with a deep moan into their kiss, her knees already beginning to give way.

It was never going to take long to get her off, not with how turned on she’d been while going down on Beca, so when the pad of Beca’s thumb presses firmly to her clit, tight circles kneading against the sensitive bud, they both know that this is almost over. If they didn’t, the way Chloe’s body reacts, her hips moving in a rhythmic pace, throat emitting desperate moans and pleading whimpers does the talking for her, and soon she’s letting out a longer, louder moan, her walls clenching tightly around slim digits as she reaches her high.

“I thought we were staying quiet,” Beca whispers, the smugness in her tone evident in the way it rings against Chloe’s lips. Even with her eyes closed, she can feel the way the brunette is smirking, the way she’s so openly proud of herself as she slides her fingers back out and coaxes her down from her orgasm.

“And I thought I was doing it myself,” Chloe retorts, voice soft as it vibrates against Beca’s lips. Finally, she forces herself to pull back, gives Beca the view of her chest rising and falling faster, the same way her own was only moments ago. Sweat has begun to bead lightly across her forehead, and it’s clear they’ll have some cleaning up to do before they get back out there to join the other girls as if nothing has happened, as if they haven’t just fucked each other to orgasm in the middle of a public restroom, almost caught by two of their own.

Now that her eyes have opened, she can finally look at Beca’s face, finally study the way she looks so pleased with herself, so euphorically happy with the last few moments.

“Not complaining, are you?” Beca teases, brow arching slightly as she brings her hand from inside of Chloe’s skirt and lifts two fingers to her mouth, lips parting to suck them clean. Though, Chloe gets there first, reaching up a hand to take ahold of Beca’s wrist, then wraps her lips around her wet fingers, gaze locked on the other girl’s the entire time.

Beca lets out an almost pained whine in response, and Chloe’s lips curve into a smirk at the sound of her fingers popping from between her lips. “And I’m the sexy one?” Beca comments, watching her in awe.

“You sure are,” Chloe nods, leaning forward to press a gentle kiss to the tip of Beca’s nose. “But I’m pretty sexy, too.” She shrugs a shoulder, her expression somewhat amused.

“I can’t even explain how badly I don’t want to leave this bathroom right now... Which is kind of a weird thought,” Beca frowns, nose wrinkling in slight disgust.

Chloe responds with a short, breathy laugh, her head nodding in agreement. “I know, but we’re here for Emily. We should probably get back out there.” There’s a soft, exaggerated pout on her lips as she finally takes a step back, forcing herself not to look down -- Beca is still half naked, and Chloe knows she won’t be able to resist her if she lets herself take in that sight again.

“You should get dressed,” the redhead states, her forehead wrinkling into a slight frown. It’s the last thing she wants really, but they’ll have time to undress one another later. They’ll have time to pay better attention, to really focus on one another’s bodies. Maybe she can give Beca a real show then, in fact. She leans forward to press a small kiss to Beca’s pouted lips. “I’m gonna go clean up. I’ll see you in a sec?”

It would be their luck to walk out of there and find the Bellas all standing around, mouths hanging open as they realize what they’ve just inadvertently witnessed, so Chloe is almost somewhat surprised to learn that it’s still just the two of them in here. That their secret is still safe, it’s still theirs.

She’s really in no hurry to wash her girlfriend off of her fingers, but she does it, and greets the shorter girl with a knowing smile once she walks back out to join her, straightening out her shirt to fall over her newly fastened jeans.

“Remembered your panties, right?” Chloe grins, Beca’s playful eye roll in response pulling an amused chuckle from her lips.

“Of course I did. Gotta give you something to take off later, huh?”

The wink sent her way through the mirror’s reflection has Chloe melting all over again, but they don’t have the time right now. They’re not so wrapped up in one another that they’d actually miss such a big day, such an important event. They just... Needed a little something to tide them over, that’s all.

As Chloe tugs open the door to the restroom, motioning Beca out before her, she thinks they’re still alone, thinks they’re still in the clear. The sound of a voice coming from behind her as she exits the room almost makes her jump, and Chloe pauses to turn around and eye its owner.

“Took you long enough,” Amy says, arms folded across her middle. The door finally clicks shut, and Chloe wonders how soundproof it really is, how much Amy has actually heard. The blonde motions toward the now closed door as she pushes herself up from the wall. “Smells like sex in there, by the way.”

Chloe can see the way Beca grimaces, even from behind. She can just picture it so clearly, so much so that it causes her to grin in response, though she bites it back, and sends a small shrug over her shoulder in Amy’s direction.

“It does?” Chloe questions in a bright, casual tone. “Hm. Can’t imagine why.”

Don’t boycott PP3 and my ideas

Ok I have seen the Pitch Perfect 3 movie this afternoon and while I undestand why Bechloe fans are angry (including me) I have three things to say about my three favorite ships in the movie and I will put under spoiler. I don’t wish to bother people who has not seen the movie yet. 

But I ask you, please…. don’t boycott the movie!. Just enjoy the subtext and be grateful for this wonderful cast we have the opportunity to see together. . 

First one… Bechloe. 

Ok, they have been living together for three years so they know each other very well and they are looking each other this way the whole time ====>

So no one is gonna convince me that Chloe kiss to Chicago (who by the way is a nice guy) is not her way to get Beca jealous. Chloe wish the best for Beca but Beca is still a little in her own world. Beca always looks weird when Chloe is kissing a random guy… In the first movie and in this last one…  

So Beca….

They only need a deep conversation. 

2 Staubrey 

Too low presence of Stacie in this movie but…   Let me analyze Aubrey. She has change so much. But not just for her friendship with Beca. Now she is the maternal figure during the whole movie. We have seen this so clear with Emily and then, her relationship with her father. She loves him but she’s always angry and sad cause he’s absent. And after the Bellas finish their tour she says she wants to work with babies….  (at least in spanish, I heard something like training babies) and I’m sorry but my brain united the dots very fast…. and I thought “oh dear! we have seen an Aubrey Posen totally different in this movie but she was thinking in Stacie and her baby the whole time” And yes I’m a Staubrey subtextual girl…. and my subtextual brain thought…. “oh dear! she don’t wish be the absent father for the little Bella” So yes, for me Aubrey, Stacie and Bella are a beautiful and unite family and…

 3 . Jessley 

Last but not least, Jessica and Ashley… we have not seen the “Baby, It’s could outside” and I’m very angry because of that… I have been thinking how this scene could be since I hear the song. So I’m very very angry. But they are canon and nothing and nobody will ever make me change my mind. These two are made to be with each other….

So yes, I need a PP4 in which we will see this cleariest but for now…my three favorite ships ends together in this trilogy and in my mind and heart that’s the only true. 

[stacieconrad]

Sal tweeted about PP4 and I DO NOT need him FUCKING WITH MY EMOTIONS RIGHT NOW.

It must be happy ending.. what happened?

JocoseRant | Spoiler | Bechloe

It must be happy ending.. what happened?

Everything that I'm going to say in this post might spoil you or not but I'm trying my best not to spoil anything. This is all about my opinion and rant in the movie and being a fan of these two gorgeous human being. I can't help but to post this because everyone is disappointed, and they're watching the movie even if it's camrip. They obviously don't want to watch the movie in the cinema for more disappointment and depressing situation and probably don't want to support the movie anymore because this franchise is obviously all about money. Big hit? Impossible. Maybe higher than the box office hit? Idrk. I saw the box office today reached below the budget. Hmm. I understand the fans, if they don't consider what's the fans want then why fans would waste their money for nothing? Sorry but I want to be the voice of them so if you're reading this and you're agreeing with me, share this. First of all, I wanna say that the movie was great, I immediately had a copy of it from camrip after the official release and I can't stop watching it—until they we're in a cabin while soak because I don't want to watch the finale for some depressing reason that if probably I watched this movie in the cinema, I'm going to encourage every bechloe fan to leave and quit being a fan of #Bechloe and turns instead to being fan of #Sendrick. Seriously. Because BECHLOE doesn't exist. Bechloe fans is the biggest fan base of this movie and... THEY DON'T DESERVE A F@#$%#@$&* QUEERBATING. I know this is not the standard of UNIVERSAL but please inform the fans that they will not end up like what they're expecting because it's kinda depressing like we literally need to cut the credits to watch it and inform the others that Bechloe didn't happen that if they want to still support the movie in cinemas, leave before the credits. And please confirm to them that the BECHLOE KISS will happen in the DVD because seriously you're taking our money for nothing! Rebel said it that they take it but fans are not believing it until YOU said directly to them because there's also a lot of queerbating on your teasers like "swipe up for more", "will bechloe happen?" OH SHIT. This movie had a low critical response because I think they also feel what I feel right now. It's so fast like 93 minutes?! Not full performances like it's not the main genre of the movie! You have a $45 million budget yet it's not satisfying! And the plot, oh my god. I wonder what's Kay Cannon wrote that they need to have a lot of improvisation! If I were the studio, I will consider what're most of the audience would want because I made them watch the movie. If it's the last movie, I can tell. There's a lot of fans who quit as a fan because of a lot of disappointment. If you're just feeling what we felt, you will not do this to us. I realized after watching the movie many times that flirting Chicago has nothing to do with the movie itself. So, what's the f@#%&$#@ point of it? He didn't even had a lot of dialogue in this movie unlike Theo! What?

Major Plot be like: **Beca's choice **Fat Amy's dad **Chloe's flirtings **Aubrey's dad too **Lilly loves black guys **Stacie's surprise

What? Is it really necessary for Chloe? Coz there's no Bechloe so that's the major plot for her! Or if there's pp4, there's probably a new Bellas and another promises that Beca, Amy and Chloe having a CAMEO where Chloe being pregnant for Chicago or Chloe having a baby where his/her father was a MILITARY, I swear. I'm feeling it so hard. I would be so happy if he's the one who sang the "If I Were A Boy" in the Riff Off because he's pretty WALP. There's a lot of queerbating in this movie. Like exactly 22, if I'm not mistaken. And they're obviously like TOGETHER, and it shows me that Chloe was cheating on Beca because Beca isn't "loving her harder" at all like "she's only human and she bleed when she falls down" and after the scene where Beca's DJing, they broke up. **SPOILER! SPOILER! SPOILER! SKIP IF YOU WANT** The boob grabbing situation was because Chloe's very jealous about Theo flirting Beca so she showed him she was grabbing Beca's boobs. Theo saying, "I saw you behind the bushes" and Chloe had no particular reason why they're hiding at all, is the evidence. We can even see Chloe switching from Aubrey's right to Beca's left as they entered DJ Khaled's—what-so-ever they called that—party and Theo approaching Beca. That scene is the most OBVIOUS QUEERBATING. Apart from Chloe's roll eyes. **END OF SPOILER** I have so much in mind that only homosexuals could understand but I don't wanna share it because it's really depressing and hard that Matt Lanter would regret why he joined the cast and kissed Brittany Snow while her wife is pregnant. Thanks to my heterosexual alter ego, because she's so happy to see Chloe drooling on Chicago while thinking of what's Beca's favorite animal and say it to gag Chicago from a lot of talking. Obviously. I'm not yet done with the movie because basically, my heteroheart wants to watch the credits in the big screen because it's credit scene guys! That obviously the producers want us to know that we need to forget what's next in the post-credit. And universal insisted to tell us that happy endings are for heterosexuals only. Okay, again this is just my rants and opinion so. Thanks for reading this non-sense rant guys. I hope YOU understand the thoughts of being a fan. I hope. Ps. I'm still going to watch the movie in cinemas this January 8 with you guys and I will also buy the DVD if it's already available here in PH.

The continuing legacy of blasphemy laws in the UK and Ireland.

It is perhaps forgotten these days that there used to be such things as the crimes of blasphemy and blasphemous libel in England and Wales. Halsbury’s Laws, contained this passage (in 2008) on what the offences were:

Blasphemy is an indictable offence at common law consisting in a publication of contemptuous, reviling, scurrilous or ludicrous matter relating to God, Jesus Christ, the Bible or the formularies of the Church of England (1). The publisher must intend to publish, but he need not intend that the words amount to blasphemy (2). It is immaterial whether the words are spoken or written (3); but, if written, they constitute blasphemous libel (4). The offence is punishable by fine and imprisonment at the discretion of the court (5). [Halsbury’s Laws Direct, para 826]

The offences, owing their origins to ecclesiastical offences that became transposed (messily) into the common law, were always difficult to define with any precision. Professor David Feldman, the advisor to the 1993 Parliamentary Select Committee on Religious Offences, formulated this attempt:

Blasphemy is committed “by anyone who makes public words, pictures, or conduct whereby the doctrines, beliefs, institutions, or sacred objects and rituals of the Church of England by law established are denied or scurrilously vilified or there is objectively contentious, violent or ribald conduct or abuse directed towards the sacred subject in question, likely to shock and outrage the feelings of the general body of Church of England believers in the community.” [Select Committee on Religious Offences, Religious Offences in England and Wales, HL 96 2002-03, Appendix 3, paragraph 6]

Questions existed over its precise scope; did the offences apply to the Anglican church specifically or to Christianity generally? The Law Commission Report, Offences Against Religion and Public Worship from 1985, deemed that they applied to both:

“...first, that it appears that the offence protects only the Christian religion, together with the rituals and doctrines of the Church of England. Secondly, it is now established that no mental element is required for commission of the offence other than an intention to publish the offending words. Thirdly, there are statutory provisions which require the order of a “judge at Chambers” to be obtained for the institution of any proceedings against a newspaper editor and effectively prevent the publication of the blasphemy in question even in “fair and accurate” reports of the proceedings. Finally, like most offences at common law, the offence is triable only on indictment and punishable with a fine and imprisonment, upon which there are no statutory limits” [The Law Commission, Offences against religion and public worship, Working Paper No. 79, 1981, p 28, pp4- 5; Taylor (1676) 1 Vent. 293; 86 E.R. 189]

In addition to the common law offences there was the little-known (and mercifully little-used) Blasphemy Act 1697, which created the offence of denying certain tenets of the Christian religion “after having been brought up in or having professed that religion”. The Act was repealed in 1969. The Criminal Libel Act 1819 (at section 1) entwined the law of seditious libel with that of blasphemous libel and criminal libel, but (to make matters more confusing) only applied to material published about the Church of England. The reference to blasphemous libel in the 1819 Act was removed by the Coroners and Justice Act 2009. 

In the twentieth century there were only four reported cases on the law of blasphemy in England and Wales and only two successful prosecutions (one public (R v Gott (1922) 16 Cr App R 87) and one private (Whitehouse v Gay News Ltd, R v Lemon [1979] AC 617). In 2007, a Christian pressure group called Christian Voice attempted to bring a private prosecution against the BBC’s Director-General and a theatre producer with regard to “Jerry Springer: The Opera” but it was unsuccessful owing to the finding of the Magistrates Court (confirmed by the Administrative Court) that the law of blasphemy did not apply to the Theatres Act 1968 and the Broadcasting Act 1990. Films such as “The Life of Brian” (1979) and “The Last Temptation of Christ” (1988) led to no criminal proceedings being brought, although some towns in the UK banned showings of Monty Python’s film.

The law of blasphemy has become an issue again with regard to Louis Theroux's documentary "My Scientology Movie." Films and books that are critical of the Church of Scientology can be a risky endeavour given that the Church will quickly litigate if it feels that its rights have been infringed. The film, at the time of writing, is not going to go on general release in the Republic of Ireland on the basis - so the makers say - that Ireland has a blasphemy law, and that because the Irish blasphemy law covers any religion and not just Christianity (Defamation Act 2009, s36(1)).

As we have seen, the old common law offences of blasphemy and blasphemous libel in England only applied to Christianity, and that remained the case despite efforts to have them applied to other religions such as Islam (R v Chief Metropolitan Stipendiary Magistrate, ex parte Choudhury [1991] 1 All ER 306 (the "Satanic Verses" case). The offences were abolished in England and Wales under the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008, s.79. However, the situation is different in Scotland and Northern Ireland, where offences of blasphemy still technically exist. In Scotland there has not been a successful blasphemy prosecution since 1843. In Northern Ireland the old common-law offences of blasphemy and blasphemous libel still exist (they were untouched by the repeal in England and Wales) and thus a prosecution is technically still possible (in an 1842 judgement Sir Edward Sudden refers to the successful prosecution in 1703 of Thomas Emlyn, a Unitarian mister who had written a book arguing that Jesus Christ was not the equal of God the Father, which seems to be a specifically sectarian use of the offence). It should also be mentioned that the European Court of Human Rights in the case of Wingrove v UK (1997) 24 EHRR 1, held, 7-2, that the offence of blasphemy did not result in an infringement of Article 10 of the Convention because it came within the so-called “margin of appreciation”, i.e. there was no consensus on blasphemy in Europe and this was matter for countries to decide themselves. 

What this makes for is an inchoate patchwork of law in the British Isles that is well overdue for reform. The Irish blasphemy laws owe their continuing existence to the provisions of the Irish Constitution which mandates the offence (Article 40.6.1.i.) but the  Irish government has proposed to hold a referendum to alter that part of the Constitution. 

This legal inconsistency was highlighted again last year with - co-incidentally - another film about Scientology called "Going Clear", which was made by HBO. Sky intended to show the film on their Sky Atlantic channel. However, Sky hesitated about showing the film in the United Kingdom on the basis that the Defamation Act 2013 (which introduced a new and higher threshold for judging whether a statement is defamatory or not) did not apply in Scotland or Northern Ireland. The film was eventually broadcast in the UK on Sky Atlantic on 21st September 2015. However, the disparity is still causing issues. Ron Miscavige, the father of David Miscavige who is the head of the Church, has written a book about his son, called "Ruthless". Lawyers for the Church in Belfast threatened the publishers of the book with legal proceedings, but not elsewhere in England and Wales. This anomaly is potentially creating a kind of forum-shopping, although interestingly the Church chose not to sue in Scotland despite the fact that the Defamation Act 2013 doesn't apply there either. The Scottish Law Commission published a discussion paper last year on proposals to bring the law of Scotland into line with the law of England and Wales.

I don't know how I started following you, but maybe it has something to do with your amazing fics. And I'm incredibly happy to have come across your fics and to have started following you, because :))

You're an amazing person and an incredible writer 💙

You're cute and adorable and TURQUOISE

And I love your tags :))

I associate you with my "On Repeat" playlist

And I'm thinking about how today is not going to be a very good day because I think I'll spend the whole afternoon away ://

PP4 but it doesn't have AK or PP3 with different songs? (😈🙈)

Oh my gosh, stopp, it's been such a long time since I have written anything and this just made me be aware of just how long that time is (and just how long you have followed me 🙈). I think it has been six months?

You are amazing and an incredible reader 💙

Thank you 🥺🙈, and I think you need to clarify what turquoise means :))

My tags are obnoxious, but thank you for enjoying them, bookie 💙

Aaaahh, your "On Repeat" playlist has so much of "my" songs! 🙈🎶

Nooo, go back home where there's better cell serviceee 🥺😖

Okay I am finally here and tbh this is the part I zoned in on when I first read this but WHAT THE F DUDE!! This is so much worse than payback for the lil walk with Astrid and pastel thing (you could've just said both and eaten pastel while walking and I wouldn't have minded besides laugh about how your obsession with pastel is overwhelming) and so so so unfair! And mean >:// You know how much I love some of the PP3 songs!!! And how much I adore AK! Ugh I guess Ima associate you with mocha bear now because right this second I feel like milk bear and sitting on the floor and not talking to you for a hot minute 😤 (even after you come back from your poor cell service celebration, which btw I'm so happy for you that you got invited to and for your friend and your friend's brother), because I don't like you for making me say what my choice is going to be, IF I WAS HELD AT GUNPOINT AND HAD TO CHOOSE ONE TO NOT DIE. PP3 but with different songs because everyone will go ballistic if there is a PP4 and Anna K is not in it and because I love this fandom and being a part of it and because I will cry and scream along with everyone else here if she isn't 😔.

And also, judging from the last three movies, if there is going to be a PP4, the songs in there are going to be amazing and they will (somewhat) fill the hole in my heart after the loss of Toxic and Cheap Thrills and Cake by the Ocean of PP3 😌😔

[chloebeale]

So Britts friend Jen Robinson is directing an episode of Kendricks tv show. Now all we need is to get her to find it create something that Kendrick and Brittany can work on and produce together and everything will be right with the world.... I dunno with a lesbians maybe 🤔

!!!!! PP4.

[chloebeale]

I think the thing about Kendrick not getting involved in the whole PP4 pushing that the rest of the cast seem to be into, is that she doesn’t need the franchise like the others do. She’s a big name with plenty of job offers and credibility and has proved herself as a dependable star. Rebel is coming off the back of the disaster that is Cats, proving yet again how limited she is, and for the others Pitch Perfect is quite literally their bread and butter. They need it more than the fans do.

Yeah idk, I’m not trying to trash any of them, I just think the joke is tiring now.
