I got to say I really liked the episode (despite only having watched exu calamity of the exu series) and I think maybe Matt needed a breather after so many fast paced, lore filled episodes.
however, I am kinda bummed that the fcg processing has been put on hold for (at least) two weeks now and that means that, despite them being great actors that truly merge with their characters at the table, their reactions will be much less raw and thereā€™s a chance some of them will forget tidbits of information, emotions they felt when it happened because they (as role players) will have had time to process it out of the game and it might create a dissonance in the game. tbf I kind of felt the difference even between the end of ep 91 and the beginning of 92 but it made sense because technically they were still running and couldnā€™t afford to process. idk. I have hope that weā€™ll still see that raw emotion, but I fear it wonā€™t be as impactful as it couldā€™ve been, especially if theyā€™ll have to put the ā€œreporting for dutyā€ hat on immediately when they get to the camp
I think being a little bummed about the sort of unexpected hiatus on the Bell's Hells/Post F.C.G processing is super understandable! As someone who also really did enjoy the Crownskeepers return (hello im still yelling about Opal internally), I'm kind of in the same camp of being kind of thrown/disappointed about not getting to really dig into/sit with the Bell's Hells post-F.C.G loss. Like, LOVED the Crownkeepers, fascinating second half, kind of meh on the specific timing.
I'm holding my reservations about whether they're going to have to keep running/moving once we return to their portion of the story, since hey, until it happens (or doesn't!), we don't know, so I don't feel like getting too in my head about it until then.
That said! I do think that in general the cast puts characterization and staying true to the emotions of the character/story as a very high priority within the campaign. I think you're right that it won't be the exact same as if they had done a big emotional blowup/goodbye/processing scene in the same ep where they lost F.C.G, or immediately after. I don't think that means it has to be less impactful, just that- yeah, they'll have had more time to actually think/process it.
But they're also all professional voice actors who have, IMO, thus far shown how much they think about the inner lives of their characters and enjoy really digging deep into the emotional/interpersonal aspects of roleplay.
My assumption (my hope?) is that with additional time to think about + process a devastating/deeply emotional loss for their character(s), they'd choose to lean into that more, and not less. It wont be the same as the immediate raw reactions, thats true! But i dont think that means it has to be less impactful, even if they (as people) have had more time to process, and will be choosing how their characters, fresh off the loss, react. I dont think thats a guarantee it will be less impactful/emotional (maybe the additional thinking would actually enhance the reactions being true/insightful to the characters vs gut reactions from cast), but it will be different.
But if the cast chooses to lean into the heartbreak/emotions, and the circumstances of the BH in the upcoming ep enable it, I'm sure they can still kick my ass (emotionally), timeskip or not.
In general, I'm cautiously optimistic about what could happen next! Even if I don't love the timing thus far. I think there's still plenty of ways for me to get what I'm hoping for wrt F.C.G/BH. :] There are plenty of ways for me to get let down too, probably, but until it happens, or doesn't, I'm opting to not get too doomery about it. We'll see.
I uh. Hope that helps? A bit? Being bummed about specific things you were hoping for being off the table is totally reasonable. just hoping to lend an alternate way of viewing it, if desired.
(i wrote the sentence: "don't be lamenting your chickens before they hatch" and then went "what the fuck" out loud. i spent 4 hours at work today just doing systems diagramming and my brain is fried. clearly. keeping this here for my own entertainment.)

Hello! Im so sorry for bothering you again, but could I get also a transformers earthspark matchup please? If not that's fine! ^^ I will understand
Its the same info but I will give it here again if you need it:
I am pretty social, however I prefer to spend time alone! I care about others a lotā€¦ To an unhealthy amount honestly but I'm working on it! I care too much about what others feel and think and it's tiring, I just want to be selfish and care about myself sometimes even if it sounds mean. I also love being mentioned/involved in things, it makes me feel liked!
People call me funny! Well it all depends because everyone has a different sense of humor! But I am most of the time unserious and I love to joke around, serious situations are stressful so I prefer to be joyful, but I do like talking about serious topics (sometimes) I love to make people smile and laugh with my jokes and overall make them happy with my presence.
My humor is definitely not for everyone, it's mostly the humor of a 12 y/o kid which can be annoying to some people lmao (sometimes it's funny how people are annoyed by it) and some other things depending on how I feel. When it comes to annoyance I also like to annoy people, it's so fun! But I never want to make them really feel bad! I often act like an asshole but this is just for jokes! I'm also VERY sensitive and worry about everything
I LOVE LOVE horror and scary things, I can't imagine my life without it, its just a such interesting genre that makes me happy and intrigued! I adore horror games and I'm mostly interested in them, however most of the time I am scared of playing them so I just watch gameplays and stuff like that
I like games very much (I suck at them), art, anime, drawing and psychology! When it comes to music I love energetic ones!
Thank you so much again and I hope it doesn't bother you! Have a great day/night :3
I match you with
Tumblr media
Breakdown
He is also someone can be social but likes some alone time too
He appreciates that you care so much about others and he loves that about you, but he also wants to make sure youā€™re taken care of too
He will be the most pampering and doting boyfriend ever
Thereā€™s not much he doesnā€™t include you in, basically if heā€™s there youā€™re gonna be there and vice versa
Heā€™s really appreciates if you make jokes in bad situations. I donā€™t think he likes awkwardness or seriousness at all though it really depends on how comfortable he is with the person
From what we have seen of him I believe he has a very calming presence, heā€™s just a chill guy. He kind of makes you feel calmer just being around him
He also likes to annoy you back just for fun
I think heā€™d really enjoy consuming horror media with you, I mean it doesnā€™t scare him at all he just thinks itā€™s entertaining especially the game plays because you also get to see people playing it get scared

Hi! I love matchups! Can I have a rdr2 matchup? :3 if you would like a matchup too let me know! (It can take me some time tho)
I am pretty social, however I prefer to spend time alone! I care about others a lotā€¦ To an unhealthy amount honestly but I'm working on it! I love to help others and make them smile, but I do wish I would get something for being so nice in return, yeah it might sound greedy but I want to be appreciated! And get something nice haha, like just a compliment or something, when my helping and kindness gets unnoticed I might get upset because of how tired I am and I just want to be appreciated like I said before šŸ˜­ I wanted to be noticed and not ignored! I care too much about what others feel and think and it's tiring, I just want to be selfish sometimes and care about myself even if it sounds mean. I also love being mentioned/involved in things, it makes me feel liked <3
My humor is definitely not for everyone, it's mostly the humor of a 12 y/o kid which can be annoying to some people lmao (sometimes it's funny how people are annoyed by it) and some other things depending on how I feel. When it comes to annoyance I also like to annoy people <3 it's so fun! But I never want to make them really feel bad! Often I act like an asshole but this is just for jokes! (but sometimes I wanna be a real asshole lmao) Like I said I don't want them to actually feel bad, if I do, I will feel very guilty! When it comes to it I apologize A LOT, I apologize so much that it might too annoying but I always feel a sense of guilt inside of me. I'm also VERY sensitive and worry about everything. Ah and I'm pretty dumb and I am not trying to insult myself I am just silly hehe and I'm okay with that. Oh and Im clumsy šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ I have a low self esteem :((
I LOVE LOVE horror and scary things, I can't imagine my life without it, its just a such interesting genre that makes me happy and intrigued! I adore horror games and I'm mostly interested in them, however most of the time I am scared of playing them so I just watch gameplays and stuff like that haha. You can say I am obssesed with horror! (its funny because its easy to scare me haha)
I love to eat food <3 especially sweet things
I also love cute things! Plushies, pink, lolita clothes and other cute things! I just love it so much <3
I love pathetic men! šŸ˜ I am not the smartest and I find high inteligence hot however I also love goofy guys! They are adorable!
I dislike cooking (I love when someone knows to cook however I suck at it)
When it comes to looks I am a chubby girl :"D chin lenght hair with bangs and glasses, my best friend says I have a "puppy face" ā¤ļø
Ahh sorry if its too much! Have a wonderful day/night!
I was actually not expecting anyone to react in any way and request a matchup, but I am so glad you send your note! Thank you for reaching out! Let's get to it! More under "keep reading" :) [@karusenka - tagging you so you won't miss it!]
Tumblr media
before I tell you who I match you up with, let me tell you why I decided not to pick other characters!
ā yeah it might sound greedy but I want to be appreciated! āž
DUTCH would probably not put you over his plans and his ambitions. No matter how pretty or nice are you, you would probably always be the second option. That's why - DUTCH IS OUT!
ā I also love being mentioned/involved in things, it makes me feel liked āž
I have a strong feeling that JAVIER might be too overprotective of you. He'd be simply scared of loosing you, always keeping an eye on you, not letting you go anywhere out of the camp. I feel like he could just go on missions and never involve you in anything except simple camp chores/activities. That's why - JAVIER IS OUT!
ā Oh and Im clumsy šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ I have a low self esteem :(( āž ā I'm also VERY sensitive and worry about everythingāž
I kinda think that JOHN would be a really bad match for you. Sometimes the words he say can be really insensitive (I remember the things he said to Abigail when they were arguing in the camp...). I feel like he could hurt you by saying something about your clumsyness and he'd never actually notice that you're mad or WHY you are mad. That's why - JOHN IS OUT!
OKAY, SO NOW THE FINAL RESULT...I MATCH YOU WITH...DUM DUM DUM...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
SEAN MACGUIRE
Seems like a great option for you! He might not be the best cook, but I'm sure he'd love to involve you in everything he does! Sean would probably care about you, always thinking about you and taking your opinion into account! You'd never get bored since this young man is full of surprises! You said you loved goofy guys, and if I had to be honest - I don't think there is anyone goofier than him! And your love for pathetic man? I'm pretty sure that he could get desperate for you pretty fast, just show him one of your cute dresses and he is on his knees, baby! I am also pretty sure that he'd love to listen to you talking about horror! He'd probably look it up/read about it (at least try to read about it...) so he could discuss with you about it :) Since he has so many people that he treats like family, he'd always go for advice from them after seeing you sad/mad and he was being unsure of what to do. Always trying his best to comfort you and apologize for any harsh words he possibly said. [He'd go to Arthur and be like "oh Arthur :( I fucked up again...! I love her so bad but I think I said something mean, what should I do now?" with sad eyes and lost puppy face.] He'd probably notice little things you do for him. And if you give him any handmade gift (like bracelet or something) he'd wear it 24/7 :]
Thank you for requesting! Hope you are okay with my matchup...Sorry if i disappointed you because you wished for someone else- signed Teaser šŸ‘½

Tumblr media
Throws sex jokes right back at you, a horny bastard.
Heā€™s the show off type, so he will make a big deal of how much he loves you, how amazing you are, how cute you are.
So youā€™ll never have an issue with feeling unappreciated around him.
Has to have his hands on you 24/7, even in public. Heā€™s not the shy type, PDA al the way. Unless youā€™re not a fan, of course.
In private he will hold on to you, calloused hands rubbing over your soft skin.
Heā€™s more of an oblivious type, loud and a bit dumb. But he always tries his best, making sure you feel loved.

About rook because im interested to see how you'd write him! What are little things people wouldn't normally take notice of but to him only make him love Lys more? Sorry if this doesn't make sense lol i just want to know more details about lysander acts :3
no no it makes perfect sense it's fine!!! this is actually such a fun question omg
i think i've said once that i compare Lysander to a rabbit a lot but Rook sees him more as a hare and !! what i meant by that is that people tend to think that rabbits/wild rabits and hares are basically the same thing while they're actually completely separate species and in the same way people tend to misunderstand Lysander a lot and take his intentions completely backwards
a lot of the students at NRC tend to think that because Lysander is generally kind and nice and always tries to see the best in people, he's naive or stupid while for him, all of that is a choice. he knows people can be cruel and unfair, but he chooses to see the good in them anyways because he sees that as his best way of survival - he can't be cold and calculating, but he can be kind and sometimes, that helps too. and i think that's something that Rook very much sees!! i like to think he's very drawn to other people's kindness, if Neige is anything to go off, so this is actually one of the things Rook likes about Lysander the most and one of the things that caught Rook's attention at first (and also!!! i feel like Rook is also very much choosing to see the best in everyone so that's something they have in common too!!!)
this is not maybe necessarily exactly what you're talking about BUT it is something that Rook very much notices while others tend to miss ā€” Lysander doesn't like talking. he tends to ramble when he's stressed or embarrassed but he generally just doesn't like speaking if he doesn't have something to Actually say. people often think it's because he's shy and try to make him "open up" which he HATES because he's really not shy (he grew up pretty much isolated from his peers so he's unused to social interactions but once he gains more confidence a lot of his anxiety goes away), he's just quiet and he generally gets tired easily when talking (trying to follow all the social rules of conversation can be a lot for him). Rook very much Gets That and doesn't try to make Lysander talk; they balance eachother in this because Rook on the other hand can go on and on about certain topics and Lysander LOVES listening to him <3
you said little things and here i am talking about some pretty central parts of Lysanderā€™s character LMAO what can i say, man of little words and straightforward answers i am certainly not!
but for some ACTUAL little things/mannerisms that Rook thinks about a lot: if Lysander is buying clothes/fabric/yarn, he always has to touch them to see if he likes the texture and doesn't ever buy anything that makes him wince. due to some specifics of Lysanderā€™s upbringing, he knows a surprising lot about home repairs and Rook is always kind of fascinated by that. Lysander tends to walk around with the sleeves of his sweater pulled over his hands. the first thing Lysander talks about after returning from a new place is the food there and how he could recreate it (sometimes its the only thing he talks about). Lysander is a very good listener!!! he always asks questions about whatever Rook is talking about, even if it's clear he has no idea what Rook is on!! (it's cute and Rook appreciates the effort)

greysanon again and tysm for answering i love talking about this stupid show lmao
okay agree about s12 itā€™s actually my ideal end point for the show after s8 and the magmeldith (i love maggieā€”sheā€™s over hated and all the hate is over shit other characters would easily get away with but they come down extra hard on the black woman for some reasonšŸ¤Øā€”and im a sister lady chief stan idc that itā€™s corny i loved how snarky and close and fun they were in this season) everyone finally moved on from the derek stuff and theyā€™re all learning now to be okay again itā€™s so good and endearingšŸ„ŗ
yeah! simone is so adorable and kind! she even made lucas tolerable but heā€™s annoying af and drags her down. he needs to leave her alone and they need to write in a new guy for her that adores her. honestly wish lucas was leaving the show and not yasuda but greys loves to disappoint.
speaking of yasuda, why has the chemistry between her and jules been so good these last couple of eps lol like when they woke up together the energy was giving GAY lol. they should bang before she leaves for good honestly
same for amelia and beltran who finally acknowledged the thing between them. i still donā€™t see sparks but i was charmed by beltran this week (spoilers for ep8) and i loved that amelia asked her out. idk why sheā€™s always attracted to these emotionally unavailable women (addison is my top 5 greys women but sorry to say ive never sparks between her and any of the other women except maybe callie? i just donā€™t get a femslash vibe from her at all she gives me super straight wasp vibes srry lmao but sheā€™s super hot and brilliant) but itā€™s good drama when they put in the effort to write it. seems like she could be sappy but like in erica hahn way (another fave idc that she was mean and arrogant she was right and they wrote her off so stupidly) where sheā€™s still kinda cold to everyone else but sweet with amelia and honestly that would work for me because i love that dynamic for women. imma need a kiss by the finale to really solidify my interest tho.
but yeah no this season is so bland the show itself has become so low stakes and formulaic itā€™s like theyā€™re afraid to actually take it in a compelling and dynamic direction because they donā€™t wanna alienate their old ass fans in middle america but what about us young fun dykes lmao. what if weā€™re tired of weekly hetero complications like we wanna have fun too!
greys anon bestie!! hi <3
girl you are so right, Maggie get behind me šŸ¤ŗ I really love Maggie and I do agree that a lot of the hate she gets is due to misogyny and racism, and she was kind of put in a shit position being "the other Lexie" by the writers. (I personally never minded the recycled half-sister storyline but Lexie was a precious babe so of course people are going to be territorial.) the thing, to me, about Maggie, is like. yeah. she's a little bit annoying. but we have to remember she's an ex gifted kid turned gifted adult, she went through puberty and like pretty much all major "age-related" (mental) changes surrounded by people much older than her and she was also bullied, plus she grew up an only child who was very much the center of her parents' lives. like, yeah, when a person like that grows up, she's gonna be a bit childish and self-centered (for the RECORD I can name at least ten characters who are way worse in that regard starting with the ugly little gnome George o'malley) (also Maggie is extremely emotionally intelligent when it comes to judging situations/dealing with conflict but due to everything in her life just not happening at the "average" time and being so focused on her studies she's just starting to develop an adult sense of "self-awareness" when we meet her - and that is OKAY). tldr Maggie is an angel and the minuscule amount of flaws she has just make her a real, three-dimensional, complex human being, and I wish people would get over the Lexie thing so they could appreciate this wonderfully written and played character.
same I loved sister lady chiefs so much!! I had genuine Amelia/meredith brain rot a few years back šŸ¤­ when Amelia was curled up at the foot of Meredith's bed and then when they were at the table and Meredith reached out to pet Amelia's head - I have a lot of Thoughts about how much of a puppy Amelia is but I don't know if this is a safe space so I'll shut up now šŸ˜­
simone is good at many things but nothing and no one can make Lucas tolerable to me, every time he is on my screen it makes me want to kill myself. I wish he would leave and from a show writing standpoint I don't understand why yasuda is leaving. it just feels like everyone is coming and going as they please, couldn't they hire main characters who actually want to stay on the show for more than three seasons? because I'm sorry but what is this?
anyways yes in the very beginning I thought they would make yasuda and Jules a thing... I do think they would be good together in the time yasuda has left (in the show haha) but I found the storyline with her fight with Taryn very dissatisfying and just... meh, I guess. (but that could be said about any storyline at all of the past five seasons so)
okay enough of me being a hater!! I am a lover now. Love ā¤ļø
okay I lied I still don't like Beltran and I want her to go away. I do agree with you that the badboy who's sweet to one (1) person in a lesbian dynamic is top tier, but regardless I do want kai to come back to Seattle and also their senses and for them to confess their love to Amelia. as an alternative I would settle for seeing addimelia scissor on national television. but that's beside the point.
anon have you watched private practice? if you like Addison, you should!! she's definitely a wasp but she is a lesbian i know it!! (source: delusion)
honestly I really wonder how their more conservative/republican fanbase feels about the general tone of the show now (I mean the hardcore alt-right people probably stopped watching a long time ago haha) because even though I'm anything but conservative I find it very disrespectful. I mean, you can't have every main character parroting one political standpoint (in ear-cancer inducing twitter lingo might I add) and the faceless "bad guys" saying the other. like with the roe v wade storyline - obviously I'm pro choice, but there could've been something way more interesting. instead of "bad guys throw brick at good guys" (Kwan). something to reach people on both sides and have an actual nuanced conversation - what if a woman who was a protester had gone to Addison for an abortion? for example
dude imagine if we were writers on the show... every character would be a dyke. Addison dyke, meredith dyke, Amelia bisexual(no one's perfect), NICOLE HERMAN!!! DYKE. Owen? dyke! you get it
thank you soo much for these anons they really make my day :'') as you can see I am a bit obsessed with grey's (I also write fanfic) so I'm super delighted to yap about it with you <33333 (but I promise I'm normal otherwise šŸ˜­ I go to school, I have friends, etc no basement dwelling going on here no ma'am šŸ«”)

Never Have I Ever - Harry Styles (part 7)
a/n: aaand part 7 is finally here! however i want to warn yall that we are nearing the end of NHIE, im planning on having one more part and i donā€™t think itā€™ll be any longer, so enjoy while it lasts! lmao as always, feedback is very much appreciated!
pairing: Harry x actress!reader
word count:Ā 5.7k
warning: some slight violence? itā€™s the good kind, youā€™ll see lmao
SERIES MASTERPOST
masterlist
Tumblr media
Sitting in your trailer you stare down at your phone longingly, rereading Harryā€™s last text.
ā€œMiss you, hope everything is alright. Facetime when youā€™re free?ā€
You hate how your chest is aching at such a small and sweet thing. If you had the chance, youā€™d run into Harryā€™s arms without a second thought, but you are stuck in Atlanta while he is currently back in LA, feeling farther away than ever, in every sense.
Itā€™s been three weeks since you left the city and parted ways with Harry. You hated it. You absolutely hated how he was looking at you and how you was about to cry in his fucking Range Rover as he was dropping you off at the airport. You tried to make it quick so you donā€™t get too caught up in the moment, but the moment he kissed you, it was over for you. For a split second you were ready to cancel on the whole movie and just stick with the plans you made before you got the role, but that wasnā€™t really an option.
Since that day, Harry has been very respectful of your will to keep some distance, he always checks in before trying to call to make sure you have time, he doesnā€™t text you about the most random things like he used to, maybe because you both are so busy, you basically live on set while he has left for his tour exactly a week ago, and you can tell he is trying his best to never even mention Levi.
The news that youā€™d have to work with your ex came as a punch in your stomach. Taiki contacted you himself to talk to you about his choice to include Levi in the movie. He has informed you that they all agreed on him at the end of the casting process, but he wanted to make sure itā€™s okay by you as well. What would have you said? You wouldnā€™t just start off a project with getting someone out of the movie before filming even started. You had no choice but to suck it up and say that itā€™s all fine.
Now you are stuck to see him almost every day and spend your free time with him as well since he is always the first one to show up when a little group of the cast is out and about. He has always been such a social butterfly, though now you wish he would just lock himself up in his hotel room and not show up until he is needed on set.
Levi has been trying. Heā€™s been pushing on your nerves, always coming up to chit-chat, like thereā€™s nothing weird or absurd about the situation, but thereā€™s plenty. Seeing that the last time you two saw each other you threw a book at him and he threatened you to sue you if you dare to even say his name ever again. Your breakup was the definition of nasty while the rest of the world just noticed a quiet and uneventful parting, photos disappearing from Instagram and awkward smiles whenever either of you were asked about the other.
While you are all about being civil and professional, what he has been doing feels like he is trying to get under your skin, testing your patience with him, which is starting to run short.
For an outsider he is acting perfectly fine, even human towards you, but you know him all too well, you know all his little tricks and moves because you used to be an expert on the topic of Levi Hudson.
Huffing to yourself you get back to the text and type a quick reply.
ā€œStill on set, I have two more scenes to film. Will text you when Iā€™m back at the hotel xxā€
You wish you could call him right away, you wish he was here with you and you wish you didnā€™t have to go back to set and face Levi once again. You really thought youā€™d get entirely consumed by work once filming starts and run short on time and energy to even think about Harry, but it hasnā€™t been the case. He is all you can think about, you always catch yourself wondering what he is doing, how his day has been or if he is thinking about you too. You cling onto your phone the moment they yell Cut! and frantically check if he has texted you. Itā€™s taking a toll on you and you can only hope youā€™ll last until the movie is wrapped and you can finally join him on tour, just like you planned.
ā€œHey there,ā€ Maya steps out of her own trailer when you turn the corner and she catches up with you quickly. ā€œWhaā€™s up?ā€
ā€œJust plotting how I can leave early,ā€ you huff, making her laugh. Youā€™ve become the closest to her, you right away bonded when you met at the table read and she caught you grimacing behind Leviā€™s back when you thought no one was looking. She came up and simply told you she doesnā€™t like him for literal no reason, he just has a punchable face and an alliance was formed right then and there.
ā€œOh Honey, let me know when you figured it out,ā€ she chuckles, circling an arm around your shoulders as you both make your way to the set laughing.
Trying your best, you focus fully on the job on hand so you can leave as soon as possible, call Harry and go to bed. Today has been way longer than you would have liked and you just need to get away from set, despite how much you enjoy filming in general. Sometime during the taping Harry texts you that he is free whenever you are and will be waiting for your call and it just makes you even keener on leaving.
When filming is finally finished, you find yourself storm out faster than ever, already ringing up Harry as you are walking back towards your trailer. When he answers the call, his smiley face fills the screen and you feel your heart flutter in your chest.
ā€œHey! Done for the day?ā€ he asks, seemingly eating something as he talks.
ā€œLuckily,ā€ you breathe out. ā€œWhat are you eating?ā€
A blush appears on his pixelated face as he glances down and grabs his bowl, showing it into the camera. He is eating your pesto pasta recipe.
ā€œI had a strong craving for it,ā€ he shyly tells. ā€œItā€™s not as good as yours though.ā€
ā€œThereā€™s nothing to do different about it, H,ā€ you chuckle.
ā€œI know, but itā€™s different when you make it,ā€ he smiles and his words warm your chest. Just as you are about to tease him about being so corny, you hear your name being called out. Turning around you see Levi jogging towards you.
ā€œHere we fucking go,ā€ you mumble, not ending the call with Harry who is a little confused about the situation since he canā€™t see the intruder in your conversation.
ā€œAre you heading back to the hotel?ā€ he asks, catching up with you.
ā€œYeah, I wasnā€™t planning on sleeping in my trailer,ā€ you answer with a frown.
ā€œWanna share a car?ā€
ā€œWhy would I?ā€ you simply ask.
ā€œWhatā€™s with the attitude, Y/N?ā€ he scoffs as if he was an angel and deserved all the respect on earth.
ā€œWhy do you keep coming up to me?ā€
ā€œBecause Iā€™m trying to be nice!ā€ he snaps, but itā€™s all for the wrong reason. You donā€™t buy this shit, nice is the last thing he is trying to be and you know that for sure.
ā€œNo, you keep getting on my nerves and you know that! We donā€™t have to interact outside of set and I want to keep it that way, Levi!ā€
ā€œNow you are being a bitch, Y/N.ā€
ā€œExcuse you?ā€ Harryā€™s voice is coming from your phoneā€™s speaker and you suddenly realize that he is still there, listening to the conversation. You glance down at the screen and see his now angry expression on it.
ā€œWhoā€™s that?ā€ Levi nods towards the phone with a frown, but then realization must hit him. ā€œIs that Harry Styles youā€™re talking to?ā€
ā€œNone of your fucking business, Levi. And leave me the fuck alone.ā€ Turning around you start marching back to your trailer thatā€™s now so close, but once again, his voice stops you.
ā€œYouā€™re making a fool out of yourself, Y/N!ā€
ā€œWhat the fuck are you talking about?ā€ you snap back at him, one hand already on the door handle of your trailer, the other one holding your phone.
ā€œIf you think he wants more than just a good fuck and some publicity out of you, youā€™re delusional.ā€
ā€œFuck you, Levi!ā€ you flip him off before walking into the trailer and shutting the door behind you.
With your back against the door you close your eyes and take a few deep breaths, fighting with yourself not to go back out and kick him in the stomach. This is how it has been, he starts acting all nice, pretending like he is the good buy, but when he doesnā€™t get the reaction he wants, he is quick to show his real, asshole self he keeps hidden.
ā€œAngel? You alright?ā€ Harryā€™s voice brings you back from your thoughts and once again, you realize that he is still in call, staring from the screen with a worried expression on his handsome face.
Taking another deep breath you bring the phone up so he can finally see your face.
ā€œSorry you had to hear all of that,ā€ you mumble, feeling way more tired than you were just a few minutes ago.
ā€œDonā€™t apologize, itā€™s none of your fault. But I gotta ask, has he been this big of a dick since the start?ā€
ā€œKind of,ā€ you sigh, walking further inside. You put the phone to the little vanity, propping it up against the mirror as you start washing your makeup off.
ā€œHave you tried doing something against it? You really shouldnā€™t let him treat you like that.ā€
ā€œIā€™m not trying to be the whiny star who gets someone kicked out. I donā€™t know what others would think if I told Levi is being a jerk to me, because he is fine with everyone else. Maya is the only one who knows about it, so Iā€™m kind of stuck.ā€
ā€œThen just punch him,ā€ he suggests making you laugh.
ā€œI wish I could.ā€
ā€œWant to talk about it? I would love to listen to you talk about how big of a dick your ex is and about your hatred towards him,ā€ he tells you, way too excited about the topic and it makes you chuckle.
ā€œLetā€™s not talk about him, I get enough of him all day. But not enough of you.ā€
It just slips out, way too cheesy than you intended it to be, but it makes him smile so you donā€™t mind it.
ā€œIs this your way of being casual?ā€ he chuckles softly.
ā€œShut up,ā€ you grin. ā€œTell me about your day while I get ready to leave.ā€
You listen to Harry tell you about his day in the smallest details as you clean your face, brush your hair out and change into your own clothes, finally feeling like yourself again. Youā€™re talking even when youā€™re already in the car, but thatā€™s when it ends.
ā€œTalk tomorrow, Angel?ā€ he murmurs, now lying in his bead, propped up against the headboard without a shirt on.
ā€œYeah. Iā€™ll be off around five so just call me whenever your show is over.ā€
ā€œWill do. Take care, alright? Andā€¦ just hang on a little longer.ā€
ā€œA little?ā€ you huff. ā€œThere are still two more months to go.ā€
ā€œYou can do it. Text me whenever you want to talk, alright?ā€ You just quietly nod, ignoring the ache in your chest. You want nothing else than to crawl into bed with him, curl up against him and never leave from under the covers.
ā€œGood night, Angel,ā€ he smiles sweetly.
ā€œNight, H,ā€ you sigh before ending the call.
An hour later you are already in your hotel room, wrapped in a fluffy bathrobe, lying in bed as you scroll through Instagram, aimlessly opening posts here and there. The explore page is always a mess, you like so many different things that Instagram sometimes canā€™t decide what to show you, but thatā€™s just how you like it. Lately itā€™s been a lot of Harry on there, given the fact that youā€™ve often found yourself lurking photos of him when you were missing him more than the usual.
When a paparazzi photo comes up of him from yesterday, having lunch with Kendall Jenner you canā€™t help but feel the jealousy ignite a fire inside you. Itā€™s not like you didnā€™t know they met up, he told you a week before it and even asked if you are cool with it, to which you said that you are not an official item and youā€™d never tell him not to see a friend, even if it happens to be an ex as well. After all, you were the last one to throw a stone at him since you are now working with yours, even if itā€™s a living Hell.
But after such a draining day, seeing him have a good time so far away from you with a woman who is not you, your opinion about the situation seems to be different.
Youā€™ve never been that extremely jealous type and you are also very much aware that you have no right to feel this way, butā€¦ you do. Scrolling through the few paparazzi photos that has nothing odd on them, just the two of them sitting at a table on a terrace, enjoying their meal and then leaving in separate cars, you canā€™t help but tear them apart to the tiniest detail, your brain fixated to find the smallest thing that tell you that they have something more than friendship going on, when you also know damn well sure that thereā€™s no such thing. Harry has talked to you openly about his friendship with Kendall, how they tried to make it work two times but both of them ended up the same way: they realized they are far better as just friends and thatā€™s how theyā€™ve been since then.
But because of the distance, your horrible days with Levi and your agonizing feelings about wanting to be with Harry but also not being able to, you find yourself letting out a silent cry as you close the app, but the pictures still haunt you.
Before you could even think twice, you are kneeling in front of the minibar you havenā€™t touched since you arrived, but now youā€™re determined to empty it out, paying extra attention to the alcoholic drinks.
You are well aware that itā€™s not how you should be coping with the situation on hand, but you donā€™t know what else to do. You were the one who told Harry not to make things official, thereā€™s nothing you can do against the distance between the two of you and you are stuck with Levi for the rest of filming as well. You have no other choices but to somehow dumb the pain thatā€™s been torturing you silently ever since you found out you got the role.
Itā€™s nerve wrecking, because this role means so much to your career, you know itā€™s your big chance to be finally taken as seriously as youā€™ve always dreamed about, but does it worth it? If you lose yourself along the way and everything thatā€™s been making you happy lately, does it still worth just to have an Oscar nomination, which is not even guaranteed, just a speculation.
Itā€™s past one am when you run out of drinks, but because of the small portions, you are just buzzing, not really drunk. But itā€™s enough to make you lose your rationality and snatch your phone from the bed and open your text threat with Harry.
ā€œI miss you. A lot, like a whole lot.ā€
You send the text before you could change your mind and for your biggest surprise the status changes to seen just a few moments later before the three little dots start dancing on the bottom.
ā€œI miss you too, Angel. Everything alright?ā€
Harry knows you too well, you wouldnā€™t just text after youā€™ve talked on FaceTime before and youā€™re usually asleep by this time, since filming starts early in the morning usually.
ā€œDo you really miss me?ā€ you write back with a heavy sigh.
ā€œYou canā€™t even imagine how muchā€¦ā€
ā€œTell me. How much?ā€
ā€œIā€™ve written three songs about you since we parted. Does that tell you how much I miss you?ā€
ā€œOh fuck!ā€ you choke out, feeling your chest tightening. You donā€™t want to be in this hotel room anymore, damn the movie, Levi and the Oscar, you need Harry. Now.
ā€œCanā€™t wait to hear them all.ā€
ā€œThereā€™ll be plenty more, Angel. Get ready for a whole album!ā€
The pictures with Kendall are long forgotten. Now youā€™re just lying in bed, rereading the texts over and over again until your eyelids get too heavy and you fall asleep, still clinging onto the device.
Ā ***
Ā After years of being an independent and strong woman youā€™ve always aspired to be, you find yourself only focusing on two men to keep your nerves stable enough to stop you from breaking down every other day: Oscar and Harry.
The possibility to win an Oscar is what you think of every time Levi is pulling on your nerves, working harder than the devil to make you burst while acting like a saint in front of everyone. His attempts of ruining your days every imaginable are getting worse as the time passes and when thinking about the Oscar doesnā€™t help, you reach out to Harry. Youā€™ve felt terribly at the beginning when you kept calling him whenever you felt like screaming after an encounter with Levi, even apologized for it, but he made sure you know he doesnā€™t mind it, not even the tiniest bit.
ā€œIā€™m happy Iā€™m the one you come to for comfort. I like that youā€™re thinking about me,ā€ he told you one night when you called him so late, but he still answered.
Today has been extra hard. Two weeks have passed since your little late night breakdown when you emptied your mini bar out and felt like leaving Atlanta as soon as possible. Luckily, the morning came with an ease, though the pain was still there, you just managed to bottle it up enough to make you keep going.
Youā€™ve been on set since 4 in the morning, having shot some scenes during sunrise and youā€™ve been going since then. Now itā€™s four pm, you are desperate for a good sleep already, but you still have some hours to go before you can head back to the hotel.
It seems like Levi has made it his mission to make you cry today. His latest favorite thing has been throwing shade about fellow actors who end up being the talk of gossip sites because theyā€™ve dared to go on a public date with another celebrity. So, just to be clear, he is shaming you for being all over the tabloids, people are still speculating about you and Harry and Levi doesnā€™t hesitate to call you out about that in a sugarcoated way.
All he has been saying all day is ā€œI guess Iā€™m just more careful about my privacy!ā€ or ā€œEveryone is different, but I like to be noticed for my professional success!ā€ but your favorite was ā€œI get it that women need more effort to stay relevant.ā€
You were shocked how no one else realized how sexist he was, but deep down you werenā€™t that surprised. Levi successfully brainwashed everyone to make them believe he didnā€™t think it seriously, when you know for a fact that even if it was just to piss you off, he really meant it. You were once one of those who couldnā€™t really see how wrong his beliefs are and now you canā€™t believe you used to ignore all these sexist comments, but now they make your palms itch.
ā€œYou know, you once were just like that. I still remember us being on the covers,ā€ you snapped back at him before everyone left for lunch and it was just the two of you, but he just snorted, brushing it off.
ā€œHated it. Always felt like just a toy they like to throw around.ā€
You needed all your self-control not to laugh right into his face and then jump at his throat. Instead, you just watch him walk away and you are quick to fetch your phone from your bag to text Harry, but then you realize that he hasnā€™t texted you back in the past ten hours. Your last four messages are sitting not just unanswered but unread as well so you talk yourself down from sending another one. Itā€™s odd, because he always tells you when he is about to be busy, but he didnā€™t this time and you wonder if youā€™ve said or did something that upset him with you enough to stop talking to you. But then you tell yourself that something must have just come up.
ā€œHey girl!ā€ Maya calls out for you, already dressed in her own clothes since she is done for the day. ā€œIā€™m heading out to lunch with Timmy, want to join? Please donā€™t say youā€™ll just order in and stay in your trailer!ā€
ā€œOnly if Levi is not coming,ā€ you grumble making her chuckle.
ā€œDonā€™t worry, itā€™s just gonna be cool people.ā€
You both take your car to the little diner close to set, youā€™ve been going there quite often, they have the best pancakes and thatā€™s exactly what you need right now. Timmy is already there sitting at a booth, waving at you happily. Aside from Maya, he is the other person youā€™ve been quite enjoying spending time with on set, he is a genuine guy and helped you a lot professionally which was a huge boost along this rocky way.
All through lunch you notice that heā€™s been checking his phone a lot, but you donā€™t think much of it, he is a busy guy, that youā€™ve learned already. Itā€™s nice to have some time away from set and youā€™re thankful that Maya and Timmy are trying their best to make you forget about Levi and that eventually you have to head back.
The three of you return to set about an hour later. When the both of them stick to your side and they keep asking if you are going back to your trailer, you start to suspect something.
ā€œYou guys alright?ā€ you ask with a chuckle. ā€œWhere else would I go? I still have thirty minutes from my break.ā€
ā€œJust making sure,ā€ Timmy shrugs. ā€œWeā€™ll walk you there!ā€
ā€œYeah! Let us walk to your trailer!ā€ Maya nods in agreement and you give them a glare.
ā€œYou guys are weird,ā€ you mumble under your breath.
As the three of you reach your trailer you notice how excited they are acting and you are confused about whatā€™s really happening, but itā€™s just until you finally throw the door of your trailer open and gasp at the person waiting inside.
ā€œHello, Angel,ā€ Harry smirks at you, leaning against the wall as you completely freeze.
ā€œAngel! Oh my God!ā€ you hear Maya squeak behind you, but you canā€™t pay much attention to her or Timmy, because you are busy throwing yourself into Harryā€™s arm, who envelopes you into his embrace, lifting you up from the ground.
ā€œWhat are you doing here?ā€ you breathe out, face buried in the crook of his neck.
ā€œShould I not be here?ā€ he jokes chuckling, his hands running up and down your back.
ā€œWell, you are not supposed to, but Iā€™m glad you are!ā€ you chuckle and pulling back you kiss his lips, not able to hold yourself back.
ā€œThank your costars,ā€ he mumbles nodding towards the door where Maya and Timmy are standing, grinning widely and proud of themselves.
ā€œYou guys did this,ā€ you breathe out.
ā€œWell, it was Mayaā€™s idea, and then I was the one to message Harry,ā€ Timmy admits, hiding his hands in his pockets. ā€œWanted to surprise you.ā€
ā€œYou surely succeeded,ā€ you chuckle and turning back to Harry you hug him again, holding him tight as if he could vanish any moment.
ā€œAlright, weā€™ll leave you two alone,ā€ Maya chuckles before shutting the door and giving you some privacy.
ā€œSo how long are you staying?ā€ you ask, arms circled around his neck.
ā€œUnfortunately I donā€™t have much time. I need to fly out late tomorrow.ā€
ā€œYou came here for less than 48 hours?ā€ you gasp in disbelief. He has been on the road for weeks now, all the traveling has been hard on him, that you know, yet he still went into the trouble of flying here for such a short time just to be with you.
ā€œIf TimothĆ©e didnā€™t reach out I would have still tried to mess around with my schedule to come here. I know how hard it has been for you here, I wanted to help you.ā€
ā€œStop or youā€™ll make me cry,ā€ you chuckle, leaning in for another kiss.
You spend the rest of your break cuddled up on your tiny sofa in your trailer, talking but mostly kissing, because youā€™ve been missing Harryā€™s kisses the most probably. When itā€™s time to head back to set, you need everything in you not to lock the door and just never leave, but your work is calling.
Walking towards set you find yourself lacing your fingers together with Harryā€™s, to which he smirks at you in satisfaction. You couldnā€™t give less shit about that people will think the rumors are true, let them! All you want is to be as close to Harry as possible.
As everyone is slowly gathering back, you lounge around the buffet tables with Harry and TimothƩe, just genuinely having a good time, right until Levi walks in and he freezes upon seeing you with Harry.
At first you are convinced heā€™s going to come up to you, but luckily, he chooses to keep his distance this time, saving you some stress about what would go down if the two of them were to talk. Harry has definitely noticed his presence as well, but he doesnā€™t say a word, just holds your hand tight, kissing your knuckles.
Harry sticks around the whole afternoon, watching you film scene after scene and the excitement in his eyes is priceless. He takes every opportunity to praise your work and tell you how amazing you are doing and it means the world to you since itā€™s the first time Harry is seeing you working.
Through the afternoon, you can feel Leviā€™s burning glare on you, but you try your best to ignore it. You can tell he doesnā€™t like having Harry around but you havenā€™t figured out if itā€™s because he is jealous of you and him or because now Harry has all the attention he usually has. Either way, he is a petty fucker and you are enjoying pissing him off for once.
When filming finally finishes at six you are one of the first ones to head out, eager to finally be alone with Harry in your hotel room and not be disturbed for the night.
ā€œI would say to pick up something to eat on our way, but maybe we should just order room service, how does that sound?ā€ he asks as the two of you are walking back to your trailer.
ā€œRoom service is gonna be perfect,ā€ you smile up at him, giving his hand a squeeze.
ā€œY/N!ā€
The voice calling out your name makes you growl in annoyance. The situation is all too familiar, Levi stopping you on your way back to your trailer with the pure intention of ruin your mood.
Oh for fuckā€™s sake,ā€ you mumble under your breath before turning around. ā€œWhat?ā€ you snap back at him, clearly annoyed that he is here again.
ā€œHey, justā€¦ thought I would introduce myself to your friend over here,ā€ he smiles as if it was the most natural thing, but you and Harry stand there, completely confused about how he can act so casual about him meeting Harry.
ā€œIā€™m sorry, you what?ā€ you question.
ā€œJust wanted to meet Harry,ā€ he tells again. ā€œIā€™m Levi, nice to meet you,ā€ he nods smiling, holding out his hand and you canā€™t hold your laughter back. Luckily, Harry is quick to react the best possible way.
ā€œAre you really just gonna pretend like I didnā€™t hear you call Y/N a bitch the other day?ā€ he asks, voice stern and surprisingly calm, however his hold on your hand is a little tighter now.
Seemingly, Levi is taken aback and you can tell he was convinced Harry wouldnā€™t bring it up straight to his face, but he did. He definitely just did and you are so happy about that.
ā€œIā€™m, uhhā€”I donā€™t think you have any business in that, Harry,ā€ he chuckles nervously, still trying to somehow dominate in the situation, but he is failing miserably.
ā€œOh, but I think I do. If you think you can just go around and call women bitches, you are in the wrong and if you ever have just one bad word for Y/N again, Iā€™ll definitely wonā€™t be this calm.ā€
The cherry on the top is the warm smile on Harryā€™s lips and your mouth hangs open at how bad he just burnt Levi. If you were alone now, youā€™d definitely jump his bones right away.
Watching Levi you see the exact moment when he drops the act and before he even opens his nasty mouth, you already know youā€™ll get another taste of his real self.
ā€œWhat, you fuck her once and think she is the Queen of England who has to be treated with special care?ā€ he scoffs and your stomach drops. Here he goes with the insults, buckle up!
ā€œExcuse you?ā€ Harry snaps back, clearly losing his patience with him.
ā€œShe is not that big of a deal, Styles. Might be a good fuck, but she is a fucking bitch in reality and youā€™ll see that soon.ā€
ā€œI think it was just you who made her act that way and thatā€™s entirely your fault, mā€™ friend. Anyone would be that way if they had to deal with you.ā€
ā€œYou know what? You two deserve each other, two low-life, attention seeker celebs, I just donā€™t get what people like so much about you. Especially about you,ā€ he adds, eyes snapping to you. Your anger is boiling, he is dancing on your very last nerve and you have no idea how long you can last.
Harry then turns to you, a calm expression on his face, but his eyes tell you otherwise as he simply takes his rings off and places them into your palm, confusing you about what he is really doing.
ā€œIā€™m sorry in advance, Angel,ā€ he mumbles before taking a step towards Levi and with a simple but graceful move, he punches your scumbag ex.
You gasp as you hear Leviā€™s groan, his hands flying to his face while Harry shakes his fist off with a heavy sigh.
ā€œOh fuck, this feels better with a glove on,ā€ Harry breathes out, taking a step back.
ā€œYou fucker!ā€ Levi spats as he straightens up. He moves his hand from his face, checking it to see if he is bleeding, but itā€™s just some redness on his cheek.
ā€œDonā€™t freak out, princess. Youā€™ll just have to sit some more in the makeup. But Swear to God if you ever speak about her that way,ā€ Harry warns him pointing at him, ā€œYou wonā€™t be able to fix it with some powder.ā€
And with that, Harry grabs your hand and pulls you into the trailer, leaving a shocked and raged out Levi outside. As soon as itā€™s just the two of you, Harry changes from the confident, protective man to a frightened little puppy as he looks at you.
ā€œIā€™m so sorry, but I just couldnā€™t take it any longer. The way he was talking about you and Iā€”ā€œ
He doesnā€™t get to finish because our lips shut him up with the most heated and passionate kiss you two have ever shared. Itā€™s hard and messy, your fingers thread through his hair as he grabs your waist forcefully, yanking you against her tightly.
ā€œThat was literally the hottest thing Iā€™ve ever seen,ā€ you pant against his lips.
ā€œYeah? So youā€™re not mad?ā€
ā€œIā€™m only mad because you got to punch him before me,ā€ you chuckle making him laugh as well.
ā€œGod, I have no idea how you could put up with him this long,ā€ he breathes out, resting his forehead against yours.
ā€œIā€™m convinced that my nerves are made out of steel,ā€ you joke pecking his lips two more times.
ā€œI donā€™t even see how you could be in a relationship with him in the first place,ā€ he huffs.
ā€œI was younger and dumber. Donā€™t worry, learned my lesson,ā€ you laugh, cupping his cheek in the palm of your hand, running your thumb along the soft skin under his eye.
ā€œIf Iā€™m being honest, thereā€™s one more thing thatā€™s upsetting me about him.ā€
ā€œAnd what is that?ā€
ā€œPlease donā€™t get mad at me though, okay?ā€ he chuckles softly.
ā€œJust tell me!ā€
ā€œIā€™m madā€¦ because he is able to say that he has been in a relationship with you and Iā€™m not. Itā€™s pissing me off, properly,ā€ he admits and your heart skips a beat. ā€œI know you said you donā€™t want anything official, but I just want to call you mine andā€”ā€œ
You cut him off for the second time now as you kiss him again, grinning against his lips. If he didnā€™t bring this up now, you would have for sure before he left, because there was no way you would have been able to say goodbye to him again without having all strings tied.
ā€œJust to be sure, was this your way of asking me to be your girlfriend?ā€ you smirk, your hands holding onto the base of his neck.
ā€œKind of? Yeah,ā€ he chuckles softly.
ā€œAlright, cool. Now letā€™s go back to my hotel room, boyfriend.ā€
You watch as his eyes light up and leaning down he kisses you again.
ā€œJust so we are on the same page, was this your way of saying yes?ā€
ā€œKind of, yeah,ā€ you nod, using his own words.
ā€œGreat. Okay, letā€™s go, girlfriend.ā€

you recognize him as the guy that fought eren every night someone from the 104 cadets, crouch down, and ask him if heā€™s okay.
he wouldnā€™t say anything, but he just keeps letting the tears fall while youā€™re comforting him by rubbing his back and doing the arm around shoulder hug.
heā€™d look up at you after heā€™s calmed down and be like

he wouldnā€™t open up right away bc you guys literally interacted for the first time and he doesnā€™t wanna share personal shit so soon
heā€™d clear his throat, thank you with a light blush, and offer you help off the ground.
afterwards, youā€™d follow him and eat dinner together. heā€™s lowk confused but he doesnā€™t shove you away.
you make light conversation with him to try and cheer him up even if he responds in short sentences or not at all bc heā€™s still upset.
before he goes to his room, you tell him youā€™ll be there if he ever needs someone and if he wants a friend.
ever since that day, you guys have been hanging out and becoming friends. he really appreciated what you did for him despite lowk being known as an ass and barely knowing him.
heā€™d tell you about why he was crying about 5-7 months into your friendship, but you didnā€™t mind how long itā€™d take or if he mentioned it at all. it was personal and you didnā€™t want him to feel forced to tell you.

ā€œHOW AM I CHEATING YOUā€™RE JUST MAD HOES MADā€
playful banter and teasing between you two is a regular thing.
youā€™d be his closest friend after marco and basically spend every day together.
youā€™d always be the one pulling him away to stop picking fights with eren. even hitting him sometimes so he wouldnā€™t fight him further.
telling each other everything and anything about your days or whats pissing you off. kind of like your shit talking buddy but not towards people. only eren for him.
him telling you jokes he thinks are funny when he comes up/hears a new one even tho theyā€™re so corny.
heā€™d have competitions with you when you have cleaning duties on who can clean better.
he never wins and levi just looks at him like ā€œyou really donā€™t know atp?ā€ so you help jean clean his part.
waking each other up bc you both tend to sleep in sometimes.
when he beats you at something he defs brags to you how awesome he is and better he is at said topic the rest of the day.
if youā€™re both really busy on some days, heā€™d always look forward to seeing you during your everyday dinners.
and then one night
you were eating dinner together like you always did chatting about the same old things like how your days went, how much a certain training exercise is a pain in the ass, ya ya ya.
when jean rants about eren and how much he gets on his nerves, he makes expressive faces, and excessive hand gestures that make you laugh so hard.
and then he realized
how much he loved your laughter
how you always made sure to intently listen to what he wanted to talk about
how bright your smile was compared to the dimly lit room.
how god damn attractive you were with the ceiling lights beaming your face.
and most importantly, how heā€™s slowly falling for you.
HIIII HOPE YOU ENJOYED THAT SORRY IT WAS KINDA VAGUE IM SO TIRED TODAY LOL.
iā€™ll make a pt. 2 with general crushing hcs so look out for that!

Lmao Iā€™m so stupid, itā€™s supposed to be wash day lol. As a black girl I like to imagine the reactions to wash day. Especially the weasleys
don't worry about it! iā€™d love to write thisĀ 
also im going to be combining it with another ask i gotĀ 
omg hey shawty uhh... gained up the courage to request sumn else for you :>
its a bit stupid but NSJSJDJSJSB but could you do something like fred weasley with a black gorl or sumn-- and if you need a house then hufflepuff pls :>
alright weā€™re doing ALL THE WEASLEYS with a black girl and what wash day would look like with them around
and just a usual disclaimer: i am white šŸ˜Œ
Bill Weasley
first off i like to think you guys met after HogwartsĀ 
idk why it just makes senseĀ 
let me tell you BILL WEASLEY loves when your hair is in braids
pLEASE
all kinds of braids
he loves it so muchĀ 
he thinks its so beautifulĀ 
he also thinks youre always beautiful duh šŸ™„
but something about braids he just ā¤ļøšŸ‘„ā¤ļø
ok Bill Weasley during wash day is so fantasticĀ 
because he will sit with youĀ 
and watch youĀ 
and try so hard to learn your routine and stepsĀ 
and when you ask why heā€™ll hit you withĀ 
ā€œWhen we have kids Iā€™ll need to know how to take care of their beautiful hair šŸ™„ā€
and he says it so naturallyĀ 
he will also help with detanglingĀ 
gODĀ 
could you imagine just sitting with him, your back to his chest
both of you are detangling your hairĀ 
šŸ„ŗ
Charlie Weasley
ok soĀ Charlie
i love Charlie so muchĀ 
anyway
YOU ARE LITERALLY HIS GODDESSĀ 
HE WILL WORSHIP YOU
HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH
THIS IS SUCH A POWER COUPLE I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGHĀ 
i donā€™t think Charlie has any one style he prefers over anotherĀ 
he will loses his mind over however you wear your hairĀ 
wash days with Charlie are so cuteĀ 
he will make sure he sets aside his whole day to be with you during wash dayĀ 
i think heā€™d just like to keep you companyĀ 
even if youā€™d want his help detangling or anything elseĀ 
if not thats cool to its your hair babe your rulesĀ 
heā€™d rather just sit with you and talkĀ 
i also imagine Charlie Weasley as a very large manĀ 
big
i think iā€™ve said this before but Henry Cavill
Henry Cavill but ginger
and he doesn't want to hurt you
but he still knows your routine by heartĀ 
sTOP CAN YOU JUST IMAGINE GOING THROUGH WASH DAY
YOU ARE ALMOST DONE TWISTING YOUR HAIR WITH THE LEAVE IN CONDITIONERĀ 
and Charlie is just watching you with the stupidest smile on his face because he just loves you so much
Percy WeasleyĀ 
i know ive said this beforeĀ 
but literally caNNOT CONNECT TO PERCY
LITERALLY WHO IS PERCY WEASLEYĀ 
WHAT IS PERCY WEASLEY
W H Y IS PERCY WEASLEYĀ 
ok soĀ 
i feel like percy, as a very political person, would be very into black history and learning all about itĀ 
percy weasley goes to protests.
especially after the war when he had the whole moment of realization with the ministryĀ 
the thought of racism literally boils this mans bloODĀ 
im not saying the other weasleys don't care, they do very much so, but I can see Percy being just super involvedĀ 
like Charlie I donā€™t think heā€™d have a favorite hair style on youĀ 
thats actually a lie
twists or locks will make him weak in the kneesĀ 
alsO THE HISTORY AND MEANING BEHIND CERTAIN STYLES HE LOVES TO LEARN ABOUT
ok wash days with oleā€™ perce
will sit with you and readĀ 
likes to keep you companyĀ 
but also heā€™s a busy guy so hes doing something for work
or just readingĀ 
pERCY KNITSĀ 
im sorry but he does and he knits while you go through your wash day routineĀ 
George Weasley
George Weasley.Ā 
honestly im gonna start yelling again
THIS COUPLEĀ 
GOD TIERĀ 
THERE IS LITERALLY NO REASON FOR YOU GUYS TO BE SUCH āœØBADDIESāœØ TOGETHER āœ‹šŸ»
George Weasley will go to BLACK OWNED SALONS AND HAIR STYLISTS to learn how to do a few stylesĀ 
just have it under his belt
just in caseĀ 
and he wonā€™t even do it as aĀ ā€œlook what i did šŸ˜ā€
no you wonā€™t even know until one day it like comes upĀ 
and heā€™s like yeah why wouldnā€™t iĀ 
he is also very invested in black historyĀ 
wash days with Georgie are so much funĀ 
heā€™s bouncing aroundĀ 
has music playing
is asking you questionsĀ 
you guys are just having so much funĀ 
he will also take a day off work if it lands on a day where he has to go into the shop
he loves being with you during wash daysĀ 
he calls it ā€˜wash day bonding timeā€™
hes a dork
Fred Weasley
you guys met in school
i just know it
also much like Bill
something about box braids really gets him going
he thinks they look SO GOODĀ 
and one think Fred literally cannot wrap his mind around
something that grinDS HIS GEARS
cultural appropriationĀ 
if someone out in public is appropriating a culture he WILL say somethingĀ 
but only if he is sure its cultural appropriation
he just cANNOT STAND ITĀ 
and i think this is regardless of who is dating, its just something that genuinely irks himĀ 
ok we all know Fred is a giant ball of energyĀ 
and ANYTHING excites him
you could say youā€™re going to the grocery storeĀ 
aND HE IS BUZZING AROUND BECAUSE SOMETHING IS HAPPENING AND THATS SO EXCITING
so wash day is the sameĀ 
hes jumping around
hes excitedĀ 
hes asking questions
heā€™s doing so muchĀ 
he cannot sit still
he tries for the first ten or so minutes
but then heā€™s up
bringing snacksĀ 
feeding you snacks if you have hair product on your handsĀ 
fred would be dancing around
he would make it so much funĀ 
little kisses here and there
he also has to smell every single productĀ 
every
single
oneĀ 
he also remembers the products you use and pays attention to when their running bit low and will go buy you moreĀ 
idk stan fred weasley or whatever āœ‹šŸ»šŸ™„
Ron Weasley
alrightĀ 
R O N
hes a lot like Charlie i think
aLSO RON LOVES YOUR NATURAL HAIRĀ 
the other weasleys do too
bUT RON LOVES IT SO MUCH
ANY HAIRSTYLE WITH YOUR NATURAL HAIR HE IS HERE FOR
ok wash days with Ron are so fun
heā€™s just gossipingĀ 
he tells you all the drama thats going on
this man can talk for hours and he can get so pETTYĀ 
so wash day is definitely gossip day
he will sit with snacks as he watches youĀ 
and talks about people at work
or people at HogwartsĀ 
ā€œbABE did you hear about who that Slytherin bloke is dating?ā€
he also likes to smell all the productsĀ 
or asks what they doĀ 
it would be so wholesomeĀ 
Ginny Weasley
OK GINNYĀ 
i love ginny so muchĀ 
i think you guys met after school to be completely honestĀ 
early twentiesĀ 
she has no favorite hair style on you she thinks you look beautiful regardlessĀ 
like george she will learn how to do a few protective hairstylesĀ 
because she loves you so much and wants to understand as best she can and one of the ways she does that is learning about your hair, what to do, what not to do, and how to care for itĀ 
stop if you were ok with her practicing on you it would be so cute šŸ„ŗ
but she doesnā€™t expect you to be ok with it, like she isnt going to be pushy about itĀ 
she is very much a believer that it is YOUR hair YOUR rulesĀ 
like everyone should be.Ā 
wash day with Ginny is so much fun
she's smelling thingsĀ 
asking questions
writing down the routineĀ 
she is mesmerizedĀ 
because your hair is so bEAUTIFULĀ 
and she develops this new appreciation for black people (men, women, and non-binary- all of you babes) and their hair and the pride and care that goes into itĀ 
when your arms get tired because youā€™re holding them up for so long sheā€™ll give you shoulder rubs šŸ„ŗ
little kissesĀ 
and they are so randomĀ 
she also enjoys feeding you snacks while you go through your routineĀ 
regardless of if you something in/on your hands or not
i am a ginny weasley siMP

i guess i'll get off your doorstep then lmao.
im not sure what im asking exactly or what i expect you to say but i wondered how you went about finding your interests and found contentment in them disregarding what anyone else around you was doing. seeing that you seem pretty confident among other things.
i feel like ive joined so many communities that were either dying and quiet or theyre pretty clique-ish with no way in. im getting a bit tired at hearing to do things for myself when im specifically looking for a sense of community. how do you manage with things like this?
Iā€™m not sure I can give you an answer that will satisfy you. But Iā€™m going to try anyway!
My interests are writing and playing video games, it is fairly easy to be content with both of those things, unless you mean my interest in a particular set of characters that I write for?
If that is what you mean my answer changes a bit. I suppose mostly Iā€™ve never been interested in what everyone else is and that isnā€™t to say itā€™s because Iā€™m ā€œthat guyā€, you know the one.
Itā€™s just a lot of things people like I donā€™t have an interest in. I genuinely just do what I want and enjoy what I like.
That doesnā€™t mean Iā€™ve always been that way, I used to care very much about how I was perceived- now I just donā€™t.
But finding a sense of community in fandom can be hard, Iā€™ve been there never knowing how to interact with those that enjoy the same things as you.
For a long time I didnā€™t want to post anything about fandom because I was terrified that people would yell at me for my ā€œwrong opinionsā€ but one day I just realised that didnā€™t matter, like wtf why am I worried about a faceless person on the internet?
If I appear confident with the things I say and do thatā€™s great but that came with a lot of time to reflect on why I wasnā€™t confident before and age. Not saying you have to be older to be wiser but it does help a tiny bit.
I canā€™t tell you how to find that sense of community because Iā€™m not good at that kind of social activity. I donā€™t talk in big servers, and I donā€™t have popular posts or popular fanfic.
Iā€™m, unfortunately, doing this for myself and the fact that others have started to enjoy it too is great but it doesnā€™t always work that way. But I appreciate every interaction I have on this webbed site šŸ˜‚
Iā€™m really sorry that I canā€™t help you, a lot of the time Iā€™m not good with words or advice. Maybe a lot of this doesnā€™t make sense and Iā€™m sorry about that too.
Please know you can always come to my IM or inbox and chat- community starts slow, I think, and it builds bit by bit you just have to be willing to throw your oar in and even if no one else is rowing.
If none of this helps Iā€™ll buy you a pizza as apology āœŒļø

sherlock holmes reactions part 4 (?) ive lost count already but unsurprisingly ive grown even more attached to him
using this as the cover image because i made him a playlist. cause im awful
Tumblr media
no legit this is gonna need a read more because it's SO LONG SHIHEWIESHEFSHIEWHF
Had three mental breakdowns this week and realized i do in fact kin sherlock motherfucking holmes. this does not bode well for anything in my life mentally I've diagnosed him with so many things
Oh boy lol you want the list I think hes autistic (undisputed honestly) plus also adhd but on top of that there's the manic depression and uhhh the bpd lmao I dont even think that's it those are just. the obvious ones
But yeah man's a fucking mess and a shit person but in the same way as me so šŸ‘
Some highlights I thought were very funny:
watson: we are in fact going to be waltzing into a place where people are Shooting People you do not have your gun. this is a problem
sherlock: don't worry watson I have my trusty stick!
watson: visible pain
This clearly happens like every day or so with them
but yeah there were some really honestly sweet scenes with them at the apartment and why am i getting soft over the crusty man being gay
have you considered tho. have you considered them
have you considered sherlock, who usually only plays absolute garbage on his violin serenading watson to sleep when he was tired and in pain and watson being so fucking in love with the man and waxing poetic about falling asleep to his music and waking up to see him fallen asleep on the couch next to him and oh my god them
They're just really sweet together for such a completely dysfunctional couple so much of the time lol I just. Sherlock being like.
Sherlock half of the time: watson you're fucking stupid. no i won't take care of my personal needs stfu. watson get a goddamn life. watson shut up. watson no one cares about your goddamn opinion. no i need to disturb you in the middle of the night it's for science. hey watson mind if i manipulate mansplain malewife
Sherlock the other half of the time: HELLO SIR YOU ARE MY FAVORITE MAN TO EVER MAN HELLO MAY I SPEND THE REST OF MY DAYS WITH YOU HELLO I WILL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU WE ARE PERFECT MATCHES I LOVE YOU AND I NEED YOU YOURE SO MUCH BETTER THAN ME PLEASE MARRY ME
They're... they certainly are.
ALSO OH MY GOD.
THIS ONE TIME WHEN SHERLOCK WAS JUST PACING AROUND THE ROOM AT 3 AM GOING "IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE >:(((" AND HUDSON LIKE BARGED IN TO COMPLAIN AND THEN WATSON WAS LIKE DUDE YOU GOTTA STOP DOING THIS AND PROCEEDS TO SAY THE LINE "YOU ARE KNOCKING YOURSELF UP, OLD MAN"
BAHGHSFHGRHEWHEWHIFEW
BRB SOBBING
CALLING HIM AN OLD MAN???? KNOCKING HIMSELF UP?? I DONT KNOW WHATS FUNNIER
The main highlight of this part was I have now gotten to see him have a great time watching his homo homie get married
Its so fucking funny.......
I was prepared for a funny reaction by yuumori sherlock's face when he said it lol but. Damn i was really not prepared tbh
watson: I'm engaged!
sherlock: *pained groaning*
watson: do you... not like her?
sherlock: no she's fine she's great you'll be wonderful together bUT I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE ARE HETEROSEXUAL WATSON DO I HAVE TO MARRY MYSELF THEN WATSON? ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE ME MARRY MYSELF.
watson: yeah... yeah... fair, I feel really bad because you did this whole case and I got a girlfriend out of it and all you got was me leaving you alone fuck man im sorry what are you gonna do without me
sherlock, highly sarcastic: dont worry watson I've always got my handy cocaine! *pulls it out and gets high in front of watson just as he's about to leave*
watson: *in fucking agony*
sherlock: good for you!
I DONT EVEN- THIS SCENE KILLED ME MULTIPLE TIMES OVER WHAT
ITS SO GODDAMN NONCHELANT ABOUT IT SHERLOCK IS JUST LIKE YEAH I WILL IN FACT NOT BE MENTALLY HEALTHY IF YOU ARE NOT WITH ME 24/7 BUT WHATEVER YOU DO YOU /S
I'd like to apologize to watson on sherlock's behalf lmao. man is being a bit too codependent on main
The last thing about sign of four I do need to address is yeah, there's the Horrific Amounts Of Racism in that one and the whiplash hearing it is just ridiculous because they seem to be so knowledgeable in all other areas and fairly... politically correct, taking sherlock's original misogyny as a purposeful character flaw, but then they just mention someone indigenous once and suddenly its all parrotting racist propaganda and just... really awful shit. There's no way I'm gonna speak for the group that just got absolutely hate crimed here but anyone can tell the author just has no clue what he's fucking talking about and it's physically painful.
And I don't know, it's just so bad it seems out of character? Doyle's making these motherfuckers say shit that honestly, Sherlock would know better about. And especially Watson. Come on, you cannot tell me watson is mentally capable of being prejudiced against someone. Please do not make him that way.
I'm not sure how to handle it specifically, or what's the proper way I should handle something like that in a media I otherwise like. Is it ok to say Doyle was clearly a piece of shit on the matter and separate those characters from his bias or is that insensitive?
I don't know, I was Not a fan of it and I'm glad to see they've at least finally shut up about the guy
But anyway yeah, uhhhh onto the short stories because I'm trying to read those before I get to the final problem
Scandal in Bohemia was a fucking ride, first of all, before we even get to Sherlock's girlboss arc we have to discuss how gay the whole situation was and how Doyle's attempt at making them less gay failed spectacularly
Like he's all "ah yes I need to marry off watson and uhhh make sherlock ummmm interact with a woman so they dont look gay" but he does it SO BADLY that it makes them look EVEN GAYER
cause i mean, even the conversation they had about watson getting married back in sign of four was gay af, but how Doyle handled things afterward was in no way straighter.
Cause you know, the man kind of wrote himself into a corner with the fact of Watson narrating these stories. So Watson has to be around to witness them, and to witness Sherlock's own thought process rather privately, so he has to be around sherlock at night, a lot. But trying to come up with a reason for that happening just... it didn't occur to Doyle. He just went. Ah yes this makes sense. And it's Watson just like Sleeping Over At Sherlock's like every other goddamn day and every time his wife leaves town and having them basically still live that cute domestic home life but they have absolutely no excuses for doing it anymore. It's quite funny
Like it was gay already the way they interacted when they officially lived together but it was like, a necessity for them. Now it's not, Watson just comes over because he goddamn wants to, and it's hilarious to me.
LIKE IDK I THINK THEY KIND OF BROKE UP FOR A YEAR OR SO BC OF WATSON GETTING MARRIED AND THEY LIKE DONT HAVE CONTACT WITH ONE ANOTHER BUT ONE DAY WATSON JUST INEXPLICABLY HAS THE URGE TO COME VISIT SHERLOCK ON NO NOTICE AND THEN SUDDENLY THEY ARE TOGETHER NEAR 24/7 AGAIN LIKE BARELY ANYTHING CHANGED AHIEHOEWH
SIT DOWN AND TRY TO TELL ME THOSE ARE NOT HOMOSEXUALS
Watson walks in on no fucking notice after a full year and Sherlock is just. In the middle of some experiment obviously but hes like
Sherlock, carrying around unidenfiable chemical mixtures: W A T S O N you look good you look good! i see you've gained seven pounds!!
watson: uh. thanks??? Hey lol *awkwardly waves* Uh um Wanted to Uhm sEe you
Sherlock: ABOUT gODDAMN TIME AND YES WONDERFUL LOOK LOOK SIT DOWN I HAVE THINGS TO INFODUMP ABOUT
watson: :) ok :) *turns to camera* and we were back to the old days
sherlock: makes a deduction
watson: wowwwwwwwwwwww !! so true bestie !!
sherlock: !!!!!!!!! :))) !!!!! :))) uh fuck im supposed to be smooth Its Elementary Lol
watson: *turns to camera* when i stroke his ego like this and compliment him he blushes like a girl like i just complimented his dress so i do it more because he likes it. this is a homie trait
watson: well i should probably get going! my wife will notice that i am gone my dear buddy bro homie!
sherlock: NO DONT LEAVE IM LOST WITHOUT YOU (pretty much a direct quote lol) your. wife doesn't. get back home until monday. I know this because I am smart and definitely have not been stalking you.
watson: alright :)))))
AND THEN HE FUCKING SLEEPS OVER LMAO FUCKING HOMOS
So yeah they're right back where they were before pretty much and there's a case bc of course there is
And honestly I think this short story specifically was so insane mostly just because of how absolutely fast it all went. Yuumori kind of made me believe the original Irene Adler was more of an important character than she really is? And I think that's. Honestly so funny. Motherfucker shows up for ten pages, girlbosses her way around town, and changes sherlock's entire opinion of the female gender while still keeping him gay?
LIKE NO LOL SHES NOT IN ANY WAY A LOVE INTEREST AND WATSON GOES OUT OF HIS WAY TO SPECIFY THE FACT THAT IN NO WORLD WOULD THEY HAVE BEEN ROMANTICALLY INVOLVED BECAUSE. SHERLOCK. DIDN'T DATE WOMEN.
HE WAS JUST??? SO IMPRESSED AND SHELL SHOCKED BY HER EXISTENCE HE DECIDED IT WAS TIME FOR GIRLBOSS APPRECIATION DAY TODAY AND ALL DAYS HENCEFORTH???
AND THEY HAVE LIKE O N E INTERACTION?? God, the power this woman(?) has. Watson looks at her once like. damb shawty šŸ˜³ and she's like "no<3" and he's like FUCK
Like yeah it's pretty much just the king walking up like "help girl the whore is blackmailing me" and sherlock being like "ok lol this will be easy" and then it proceeded to not in fact be easy or even possible
sherlock like... posed as a dead body and tried to get her to give up the location of the photo but she out-acted him and skipped the town the next day after doing the 'good night mr. sherlock holmes' thing with sherlock completely tricked
and she just. sends a letter like "dear sherlock holmes. you're a fucking idiot and i think it's funny that you lost. nice job tho mad respect" and sherlock just SHORT CIRCUITS
the king comes back a bit later like "hey Dude where's my Photo" and sherlock's like oh yeah uhhhhhhhhhhh about that and the king is like HOW COULD IT POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN THAT GODDAMN HARD i would have dated someone more noble if she wasn't so pretty i swear im on a whole different level from her
and then. GIRLBOSSIFIED SHERLOCK HOLMES RESPONDS "from what I have seen of the lady, she seems indeed to be on a very different level from your majesty" ABSEHHESHEFHHFES ROASTED
and the dude just LEAVES
After that I read a few more of the short stories and well the highlights I got from that pretty much were these conversations
Watson: sherlock. honey. have you. eaten anything today
Sherlock: IT DIDNT OCCUR TO ME DEAR WATSON
Watson: ITS FIVE PM
and:
Sherlock: *having one of his Moment Moments at three in the goddamn mornig* GRRRR CRIME ISNT WHAT IT USED TO BE
Watson: MY DEAR SHERCOCK WHAT IS CRIME S U P P O S E D TO BE LIKE ACCORDING TO YOU
Sherlock: no one's original anymore fucking copycats
Watson: so you want the criminals to make things harder for you specifically.
Sherlock, exasperated: yes!
I love them your honor.

Just hopping on the anons last week who said they'd done reading around BPD and Ben etc after reading your posts to say... when Whitney told Ben he makes everything about himself in this week's eps I immediately thought of you! Like lemme explain lmao I remember last year you wrote about how lots of fans said Ben was making everything about him when him and Callum had that argument about the warehouse job in Sept.? And you wrote about how you viewed it and how looking at Ben through a lense of mh goes a different interpretation etc. Idk Whitney saying that just made me recall your thoughts on the fandom saying the same thing lmao.
(although tbh I didn't think Whitney was v fair saying that anyway bc how was he meant to know Callum had witnessed a stabbing etc?? He wasn't making it about himself he was simply worrying about the info he had access to???)
no joke i literally thought the exact same thing after i watched it yesterday. not the post (tho i do remember what you're talking about!) but i was like 'oh ben's behaviour is VERY bpd' like probably the most obvious example we've had since 2019 maybe and then i was like man.... how many people are going to have Bad Takes abt ben's behaviour and how he's 'selfish' and then i was thinking abt what whit said and it reminded me of something i heard once and i've tried to find it but i can't and i'm gutted bc it made so much sense but it was abt how bpd are often viewed as selfish or making everything abt us but we do that bc we literally feel like everything IS because of us/our fault. it's literally a Symptom. like when you're hypersensitive and terrified of everyone abandoning you EVERYTHING feels personal.
like someone's in a bad mood? clearly i have done something to put them in a bad mood. someone doesn't reply? clearly they hate me. you smile at someone in public and they don't smile back? clearly they can sense something is Wrong with me and didn't want to engage. either that or they think i'm hideously ugly. that's the default assumption, that it's somehow something to do with me. not that they're going thru their own shit or that they're busy or tired. and then when we're talking abt someone you're close too, the fear of abandonment comes into play where you either start to push them away bc you're convinced they're gonna leave anyway or frantically do things or change things to help convince them to stay, and both of these can go very extreme. and ofc it's not logical but we can't help it. i'm always saying this to people in my life: i know how i'm feeling/what i'm doing isn't logical and it doesn't make sense, but i literally can't help it. it's like the sensible you is locked in the back of your brain forced to witness all of your own bs but they're literally powerless to do anything about it.
which is also why i can understand under the hysteria of your own fear of abandonment and hypersensitivity why ben could convince himself callum was gonna leave him for whitney. like ofc i get why ppl would find that unrealistic and offensive, but i can't NOT see him as bpd, and when you have bpd that fear of abandonment is so so incredibly pervasive that you start thinking things like that and convince yourself that they're real. like you genuinely believe them. and someone of sound mind is like 'that doesn't make any sense, he's gay' but like.... that almost is irrelevant to a certain degree. your own belief that you're so unlovable and that everyone is going to leave you holds SO much weight in your mind, more than even reality itself.
like you could almost compare it to hallucination. reality and logic dictates that it's impossible for there to be a man crawling on the ceiling, but if you can see it and hear it and feel it then ofc you're going to believe it's real. reality and logic become irrelevant bc you KNOW it's there, even though it isn't, u know? it's the same kind of thing: reality says ofc callum isn't gonna propose to whitney when he's married and literally gay, but that all-consuming fear of abandonment is so much louder when it says 'he's lying, he's sneaking around w his ex, he's not talking to you about anything, he's got a ring, ofc he's gonna propose to her, she didn't ask him to quit his job or force him into a position where he had to lie for months, ofc he was gonna leave, he just married you out of pity, this is all your fault, you don't deserve happiness or love bc you're a bad person lmao what did you even expect?' etc u know
if i'm being completely honest if i were in ben's shoes i could EASILY see myself being convinced my gay partner is gonna leave me for their ex of the opposite sex. like worryingly easily. and tbh between that and what was going on with kheerat, i actually think he coped surprisingly well. like i genuinely thought that yesterday that if i was in his situation i probably would have reacted much worse and been in much worse a state than he was. and i'm not just saying that, i think his growth since 2019 is obvious in how tame his reaction to it all was tbh.
i realize probably no one will bother but if anyone really is interested and wants to understand more then u should watch this video. i've timestamped it at the first point bc if nothing else u should listen to that bc it helps explain what i've said in a much better way esp the example abt clearing out the garage but the whole video is really good and i would love for some ppl to watch it. like i know it's half hour and that's a long time and also the interviewer is obnoxious and p insensitive but the doctor herself is really good and explains everything i've been trying to explain in a MUCH better way than i ever could and i think it will really help you understand what it's like to be someone bpd and what it actually means for day to day life
like i realize i've completely gone off on one w this and im sorry but i have opinions and i just want people to understand you know?? not necessarily for ben as a character but for all the ppl out there w bpd bc !!!! no one gives a fuck abt us they just misunderstand us and then do literally nothing to try and understand us when we try to explain ourselves so to have ppl actually engaging in this dialogue w me makes me very excited and i try to explain as much as i can while i have the opportunity u know lmao so i very much appreciate you and getting messages like this thank you šŸ’žšŸ’žšŸ’ž

(weird tourist traps like giant balls of yarn etc, small town main street stores, cool looking restaurants, nature sites, Actual Destinations, so on n so forth!)
fjkdsd thank u beloved mutual adam,,, <3
ohhh I love tht idea!! road trip fics/hcs are one of my weaknesses,,
but um!! I rly like the idea of th four of them going camping a few hours up north!! (we... don't rly know where. SAW is set so just. imagine a vaguely rural campground lmao. I'm used to camping in th upper peninsula of MI so) it's smth tht Art did a lot w his family when he was growing up, so he's th most familiar w it - Eric went a few times as a kid too, Mallick went Once, n Adam has never rly been camping, w his family or otherwise (he's slept on a trampoline at one of his friends' houses once tho). Art is p excited abt it tbh, it's not exactly smth he gets 2 do often so he's got this whole list planned of things he wants 2 show them!!
it's easiest 2 just take a week in late August, bc they can head back home on a Friday n have the weekend to settle n readjust b4 th coming week + they have to go back 2 work. so they head out around ten on a Monday morning 2 kind of get ahead of th traffic (or at least try to). Art drives both bc he insists and bc he knows they can switch if he needs to, which he does later w Eric. it's a good couple hours (at least 3) b4 they get 2 th campground Art wants to take them to, so clearly it is Music Time + Adam made sure 2 bring CDs! a lot of that time is just spent vibing 2 th music and singing very, very loudly (ESP on Adam + Mallick's end). Art's up front like u three are so fucking goofy (affectionate), but eventually he starts singing too lmao.
Mallick starts th Colour Game, where they try 2 find a car fr every colour of th rainbow. it's smth Eric is familiar w as well bc he used 2 play it w Daniel sometimes, and it's good until they come to purple bc how often do u see purple cars??? so Adam's just like "we're not gonna find pink either" n tht's when this fucking pink pickup truck (noticeably spray-painted, + not done well) passes them n Adam just groans n thumps his head against th window. Mallick is like, trying rly hard not to laugh by pressing a hand over his mouth + Art is biting his lip, but Eric is very openly cackling bc "u see what happens when u assume???" (he gets a very light slap 2 th shoulder but it's still very gentle)
ANYWAY. favourite snacks!! Adam can eat Way Too Many Sour Patch Kids. sour anything, actually, as long as it's candy. yes his tongue hurts and no he doesn't regret it. Eric just gets goldfish bc he tends 2 get a lil carsick + bc it's a food tht's familiar n comforting, n he doesn't rly want 2 be eating anything Too heavy (he's up front w Art, so he can sit by a window in case he needs some fresh air at any point). Mallick likes m&m's, but he switches fr cheez-its every once in a while bc he can only eat so much chocolate. Art likes those peanut-butter filled pretzel bites! he's also partial 2 animal crackers tho. they also bring a good amount of snacks/things they can b sure th four of them like, bc yeah there's a lil store abt a half hour away frm their campsite + they can go there to pick up things if they need 2, but it's easier 2 bring things they like, too. (there's also a mcdonald's in tht town n. they do go there at LEAST twice.)
th campsite they stay at has a lake + a beach, n one of Art + Adam's fave things 2 do is walk along it to see if they can find anything interesting! Mallick goes sometimes too, but mostly he stays w Eric bc Eric can't do tht fr as long as Adam + Art can (not tht he's resentful of it tho). he n Mallick chill on th beach w a blanket (it's kind of like. not necessarily sandy?) n just kinda sit against/lay on each other n read sometimes. Adam + Art come back 2 where they're set up to find them sleeping n Adam has never been more thankful he thought 2 bring his camera!!
on th second day Art + Mallick want 2 go swimming, so th four of them come back out to th beach, but Adam stays out of th water + Eric stays w him. they both know th water will be cold, even if it's late summer, n Adam rly doesn't like being in cold water ESP if it's over his head/he can't touch th bottom. fr Eric th cold can b kind of painful, so they chill n walk along th beach fr a little bit n just talk. Adam gets some good pictures n even gets some of Eric! he also does take a selfie of them, he can't help it. he gets a couple of Mallick + Art too. it's honestly such a nice thing fr them n it just feels like they can breathe easy, not having 2 worry abt looking over their shoulders constantly (tho they're all getting better abt that).
th third day they spend around th campsite to kind of unwind n relax. they might walk th beach a little bit again, but mostly they just sorta chill n walk some of th trails around the campground itself. when night falls they light a small bonfire (Mallick is still iffy around fire, understandably) n they sit around it in their folding chairs w th cupholders (Adam gets red, Eric has green, Art gets blue, + Mallick gets dark green) n make s'mores. they talk abt anything n everything until they're barely able 2 keep their eyes open, n then after making sure th fire is pretty much out they kinda just stumble into th tent n none of them r awake for very long after (they specifically got one tht cld comfortably hold th four of them).
fourth day!! they pack up n head into another little town about 45 minutes away; it's bigger than th one around th campgrounds. after they get situated in a motel room w two beds, they do some window shopping + going into lil stores that interest them! Adam def buys some niche graphic tees tht aren't going 2 make sense to anyone other than th four of them n he's delighted abt it. I like 2 think Eric gets a worry stone, specifically made out of rose quartz. Mallick too, but his is made of amethyst! he also gets a rly cool multicoloured jacket in a thrift store they duck into. Art gets a hoodie w th town's name on it n he's pretty happy w that. they get a few more lil things, just little knick-knacks while they're there, n then they have dinner in this lil diner they'd walked past earlier bc it's inexpensive + the atmosphere is very lowkey n honestly just Nice. there's not a bunch of ppl, the servers r rly kind n the lights aren't too bright, which Eric rly appreciates. it's such a tender moment bc they're squeezed into a booth, Adam + Mallick on one side n Art + Eric on th other, n they're talking n laughing n stealing bites of each other's food n it's Comfortable.
then they head back to th motel n channel surf while unpacking enough 2 get to their sleep clothes. Adam + Eric r sharing a bed n Art + Mallick r sharing th other one, tho Adam is very tempted 2 just push them together so they're all close by (th distance btwn th beds isn't tht big to begin with, but it's the principle of th thing). mostly tho, until they go to bed, they're pretty much just all stretched out Everywhere. Adam is only discouraged frm jumping across th divide btwn th beds bc Art breaks out his Lawyer Voice, despite trying rly hard not to laugh, to say Yr Going To Hurt Yrself, Don't Do That. he grumbles n whines abt it but Adam knows he's right jdhjks (th way he sees it is like. he can b silly sometimes. he's Earned It, but he also trusts Art + wasn't super serious abt tht idea). eventually tho Eric can hardly keep his eyes open n Mallick is just straight up asleep while he's still sitting up so tht's when they all go to bed after making sure every1 is comfortable. they leave a lamp on.
fifth day they pack everything up again n stop 2 walk th trails of this lil park b4 they head home! there's a lil shop near th parking lot so they spend a lil bit of time looking around in there first. they probably pick up a few lil things, souvenirs, n Adam walks around 2 get some pictures. he gets this rly cool one while they're on a bridge, th sun peeking thru the clouds a lil bit n shining down on th water. he's super excited to develop tht one (but he's excited to develop All of them, bc this is his family!!!) + he n Art discuss whether or not they're gonna need another cork board lol. eventually tho they round back to th parking lot n on th way home, they stop at another lil hole-in-th-wall kind of place, but it's just as nice as the first one they'd been to. after tht Eric switches spots w Art n he drives them home!!
they're all exhausted when they get back but they have room to crash w each other while they nap so tht's what they do. they fall asleep all tangled together, Art stretched out w Eric's head on his chest, Adam curled against Eric's back, n Mallick w his head on Art's stomach. there r arms n legs everywhere n tht is okay. they're happy. they love each other. they had a lot of fun on their trip n they're tired, but they're comfortable!! tht's what it's all abt!!! it's just such a good n relaxing experience fr them after all th shit they've been thru.

who are your least fave characters besides brittany? also this account is starting to make me hate brittany?? which is a good thing! i used to love her but like shes low key selfish and kinda rude. one thing that pisses me off about her is how she always says "thats bullying and i wont tolerate it" but then she doesnt do anything when she actually sees bullying?? also im still mad that she won class president when kurt deserved it so much more then she did. sorry for the mini rant lol
Okay you guys know you donā€™t have to apologize for ranting, you know I love to hear it xD Also omg my influence, sowing the seeds of my Brittany hate throughout the fandom and watching them grow. Amazing. Also yeah Kurt losing the election was literally for nothing and that was just one of many infuriating parts of s3 for me
But for real tho like the writers are the ones letting her get away with all kinds of shit that no one else can. Well I mean, Santana and Sue can. Thatā€™s about it. Honestly I think when Rachel makes a racist comment itā€™s kind of partly likeĀ ā€œoh she shouldnā€™t have said thatā€ even tho itā€™s still mostly played like a joke. Sue or Santana say something racist and itā€™s just part of them being sAvAgE like thereā€™s no self awareness from anyone. And if Brittany says something racist itā€™s likeĀ ā€œohh that brittany. so cute and clueless wocka wockaā€ like itā€™s just a big joke
I mean like Blaine gets beaten up and itā€™s the most traumatic moment of his life but if Brittany beats up JBI then itā€™s played for laughs and the other characters are literally likeĀ ā€œoh he deserves itā€ like ok letā€™s go double standards. I mean not that JBI is anything other than a punching bag in the first place but stillĀ 
Oh but to answer your original question that I almost forgot about bc i got so distracted by complaining about Brittany. Sheā€™s the worst but my other bottom character is Finn. And then thereā€™s Will. Heā€™s just so damn stupid and literally the worst teacher. And Sue. She has some funny moments and good scenes but her character got so stale after about s2 and she just got more and more cringe and itā€™s like why are you doing this to Jane Lynch what did she do to you. Also, the aforementioned racism.Ā 
I donā€™t like Rory. Heā€™s another black spot on s3. Didnā€™t like Ryder for that one episode where he was transphobic, but he got better. I actually donā€™t like Jesse that much, I donā€™t know why so many people do. Aaand Iā€™m kind of starting to dislike Mike and Quinn lmao. Purely bc of the fandom. Like Iā€™m so tired of ā€œkingā€Ā this and ā€œqueenā€ that andĀ ā€œleast appreciatedā€Ā ā€œmost overlookedā€Ā ā€œmost underratedā€Ā ā€œdeserved betterā€ like people have talked so much about how underrated they are, that it makes me feel like theyā€™re now overrated xD If that makes sense. But those are all minor in comparison to the Big Four listed above

EPISODE 157
I know I said I would be right back, but I literally forgot about this the second I typed that and then i literally got so exhausted I couldnā€™t concentrate on anything so sorry for literally wasting a bunch of time, but here it is lol
This isnā€™t proofread either bc its three in the morning and im pretty tired of reading words
Honorable mentions:
I really want to see Remi with her hair down. Like, without the bow, strands of hair in her face kind of downā€¦
Every once in a while I have to say this somewhere: I need Claire to be returned to UnOrdinary, thank you, itā€™s been a while since I said that, i had to again
Not really gonna metion John worrying about Seraphina because thatā€™s to be expected plus he doesnā€™t really know anything about why she was acting weird to it doesnā€™t matter
I think Iā€™m going to go through all four of the characters in this chapter and talk about each of their stances because thatā€™s the only thing i can think to do
Arlo:
God, it seems like I say this anytime the other royals questions his decisions. Arlo is the best leader that Iā€™ve seen in UnOrdinary. His ability to see the bigger picture most of the time paired with his ability to command others and have them listen: heā€™s unique in this sense from all of the others characters in UnOrdinary.
And thatā€™s why it infuriates me so much when the others question him, god. Iā€™ve said this shit too many times, that I donā€™t want to repeat myself, but if you search up #episode 152, and maybe one other that I canā€™t seem to find, on my page, I rant about this there. Arlo is just the best leader ever and I want everyone to know that.
Anyway, so Arlo comes in all sulky and stuff. Sulky is far from the right word, but I canā€™t think at the moment i guess so yeah. Anyway, this is understandable. All Arloā€™s been saying for forever is that everyone just needs to leave John alone. At one point in time, he was the only person who really knew about John that was of consequence (Meili and Ventus donā€™t really count. I wonder where they are right now lmao). He knew from, when was that, around episode 80? Anyway, ever since the other royals have become involved with Tuesday, Arlo always warns them against it. You would think that one of them would have listened to him, but I donā€™t think anyone did. Not even when they knew that Arlo had already fought him, that he knew so much about him. Still, nobody heeded Arloā€™s advice, which he was only giving because he didnā€™t want to see any of them hurt. But the royals, especially Remi, ignored all of his warnings and now theyā€™re in the hospital, so, yeah, itā€™s understandable that Arlo is kind of grouchy when he comes in. He doesnā€™t lash out though, because heā€™s a great leader and knows that will accomplish nothing except for lowering morale (i will NOT stop saying this lol).
Everything I said here is basically pointed out by Remi. Which is great. I appreciate that she doesn't look past her mistakes in an attempt to hide from her emotions like she did when she was fighting EMBER. Remi tends to ignore her own emotions by acting and while I get it, at the same time, itā€™s wildly irresponsible.
Anyway, back to Arlo because this is his section: his advice for what to do about John is that should just let him be, which the advice he gives every time that Remi has asked that smh, but at least she doesnā€™t really argue with this. She does try to shut that idea down thoughā€¦ but ill talk about that in Remiā€™s section. Thereā€™s too much of her in this one. I donā€™t like it. Anyway, back to what Arlo was thinking. Arlo, as always, has the right idea. He knows that there is literally no other choice other than to sit back and watch things happen because a. John is the rightful king and can do whatever he wants and it is not against the rules because b. John publicity defeated every single royal in combat. Some at the same time. It really isnā€™t an option for the former royals to try to fight back against him again because for gods sake, have of them are in the hospitalā€¦
Anyway, thereā€™s not actually that much for me to say about Arlo in this one other than the fact that his leadership goes under appreciated and they always regret not listening to him.
Blyke:
Blyke is in sad boi hours right now. He hasnā€™t spoken a lot when Arlo and Isen arrive, but heā€™s probably lost in thought. Not good thoughts, bad thoughts. Blykeā€¦ he has really just lived out one of his worst nightmares, heā€™s given in to one of his biggest insecurities. Blyke failed by a.) not recognizing John as Tuesday even though they share the same down and b.) losing so horrifically to Tuesday. We all know Blyke is worried if heā€™ll be a good enough king when the time comes and Arlo has to leave. This incident didnā€™t help that worry. Blyke even talks about it out loud. Iā€™m actually really worried for Blyke. Heā€™s been hit really hard recently and itā€™s like heā€™s falling down this pit of self-hate and anxiety. My man was even bringing up like EMBER, talking about how he ā€˜failedā€™ then too, even though he clearly was the hero in that situation. He says, ā€œSo much has happenedā€¦ with all that EMBER stuffā€¦ and now John becoming Jokerā€¦ We couldnā€™t handle any of it,ā€ which is what I just explained, but then he continues and goes, ā€œI was already having doubts about my capabilitiesā€¦ But this last fight really opened my eyes. Iā€™m weak.ā€ This is Blykeā€™s really insecurity. The root of all of his other anxiety is the feeling that he isnā€™t good enough, that heā€™s going to let everyone down.
Also, Blyke doesnā€™t have anywhere to really go because, yeah, he shares a dorm with John, but thatā€™s not that big of a deal right now because heā€™s in the hospital and heā€™s got Isen to go to like he has before. Still pretty sad though. The constant reminder of his ā€˜failure.ā€™ Tuesday was his roommate that he treated like trash this whole time and now anytime Blyke thinks of his home, heā€™ll remember that. :(. Iā€™m sad. I really like Blyke actually.
Remi:
Okay so Iā€™ve already talked about Remi a bit in Arloā€™s section. Iā€™ll try to elaborate on some of that (barely) because this is the proper section.
First of all, Remi apologizing. I was happy about this because, itā€™s been too many times that Remi or some other royal doesnā€™t listen to Arlo. Itā€™ about time someone apologized. Iā€™m mostly happy, however, because Remi is finally acknowledging that she knows how naive she generally is, which always used to get on my nerves. Iā€™ve called her a bad queen for this, and I stand by that still, but now itā€™s nice to see Remi herself recognizing that, even if itā€™s a bit of a sad thing to see.
But then literally the next thing that comes out of her mouth is that they have to go and stop John and I literally facepalm, Iā€™m so sorry Iā€™m probably being really biased here by my opinions on Remi, but really. Not much more to say on this other than I agree with Arlo.
I do have something else to comments on briefly, though
After Blyke spills his problems, his worries, after he says that he is too weak to even take care of himself, Remi says nothing. She justā€¦ sits there. This is probably one of the only instances in this chapter of Remiā€™s growth, but maybe Iā€™m being a bit too harsh on her, but seriouslyā€¦? I was expecting her to step in soon after Blyke started talking. I was definitely expecting to see her talk after Blyke says, ā€œ-this last fight really opened up my eyes. Iā€™m weak.ā€ Remi has always been close to Blyke. Sheā€™s also always been so positive and reassuring to others. Iā€™m not sure if the absence of this in this scene is distance from Blyke (lost in her own thoughts), or agreement with what heā€™s saying about them. I donā€™t know. I just,,, thought this was something I should point out. She really left Blyke like that. But honestly, with how she was acting before, though, I think sheā€™s feeling really similar to Blyke, herself. Both of them have been pretty self-deprecating this episode.
Isen:
After saying hi, Isen literally says one thing the whole episode and itā€™s that Blyke can stay with him, so thereā€™s not really anything there oof. Wouldā€™ve been pretty cool to see him interact with Remi more, but I always appreciate Isen whenever, so itā€™s no big deal.
ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”ā€”-
Gavin and Tuesday: (two completely different ideas here. First one is right below this and second one is further below)
Now weā€™re moving to that scene of Tuesday and Gavin and like..??? What the fuck was that
Is John just going to go after anyone whoā€™s ever hurt him before now? Iā€™m not going to lie, it doesnā€™t make sense. John literally spent such a long time without using his powers and never really came close to using them until Arlo interfered. If he is truly going after the people that hurt him in the past, thatā€™s a very impulsive thing to do, and Johnā€™s control over his own power and the restraint he possesses makes me believe that he isnā€™t an impulsive person. Maybe at New Bostin, but heā€™s changed since then. I know know heā€™s being forced into a similar position to that he held at New Bostin, but after all this time, and the horrendous experience that Johnā€™s already lived through concerning his old school, I still believe that John would try to avoid the same thing happening here at all costs. Even when he snapped and went after all of the royals, he only did it to take down the hierarchy, which gave power to the powerful and took from the already weak. It just doesnā€™t make sense that Johnā€™s going after Gavin now, someone thatā€™s only real connection that I believe we know of to John is that they fought in like episode two or something. Gavin is barely a mid-tier. If John really was trying to stay away from being the monster he used to be, I donā€™t think he would purposely hunt this one kid thats much weaker than him and literally barely interacted with him. Itā€™s clear that John would win that fight, so whatā€™s the point.
And obvious argument is that maybe, John is slowly turning back into the person he was at New Bostin. Maybe even after all of those readjustment classes and reflecting and repressing of his powers, John still canā€™t run from who he is, what he is. Maybe the monster that surfaced at New Bostin, maybe he canā€™t escape that.
And as much as I love that, which I admit, I would (do you know how interesting that would be?), Iā€™m not sure if the evidence supports that..? I donā€™t know, it might, but the fact that all of (all of them right?) the times John has fought someone has either been as revenge for hurting Seraphina or because he was trying to take down the hierarchy, which Iā€™ve already said doesnā€™t support John returning to the person he was. For all of his attacks, John has had something for each: a motive. This isnā€™t that special, though because John had motives even back when he was at New Bostin because literally that was the entire plot of that history lol. I donā€™t know. So basically, this fight with Gavin is very reminiscent of whenever Tuesday would fight those people that hurt Seraphina.The royals were the result of a feeling of injustice, but everything else stemmed from the motive of revenge. John has always used his revenge as an acceptable motive when deciding whether or not to act on something. Whether he realizes it or not, itā€™s the real connection between him and the old John. Their need for revenge ruined everything for them. John couldnā€™t handle when Claire betrayed him so he beat her up as a consequence. Hunting down Seraā€™s assaulters and absolutely demolishing her kidnappers show this too. And so does this scene. John is hunting down Gavin over revenge, and as long as John fuels his need for revenge, heā€™ll never be able to truly escape his past. So maybe the evidence does support John slowly regressing back into the person he was, despite his wishes. Heā€™s changed so much since Now Bostin, but sadly, he hasnā€™t been able to shake his tendency to hold grudges until he literally cannot contain them any longer and he lashes out.
It was kind of weird how hesitant John acted at the end of this encounter, though, because he just let Gavin go, but Iā€™ve decided to ignore this because the fact that the character this happens with is Gavin, I refuse to believe that this whole thing is insignificant (wrong word but words are hard.)
Second idea:
Okay so apparently the person appeared as Tuesday at the like middle of this episode, apparently thereā€™s a chance that it wasnā€™t actually John. This has been brought to my attention in the comments of this post so this little bit has been added a day after I initially posted this.
The argument is that because the person presented as Tuesday in this weekā€™s episode has yellower eyes than John does, it could be some person only pretending to be Tuesday, which is obviously a possibility because Tuesday has already been established as the most powerful student at Wellston, but nobody know who he is. So any random mid-tier or something could just put a mask on and use a bit of their powers to scare anyone off (anyone would be too scared to fight Tuesday) and theyā€™ll basically control the school cus people would take the imposter for the king. Anyway, before I get more into this, here are the pictures comparing Johnā€™s Tuesday and this episodeā€™s Tuesday:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Itā€™s pretty clear that the eyes of these two characters are a different color, but not too different that itā€™s that noticeable, which is why I didnā€™t notice this at first until it was pointed put to me. I wonder if this was even intentional... I feel like, if uru-Chan even ever meant for people to notice that Tuesday looks different, she wouldā€™ve used a much more different color. Or maybe one of the people that help her with coloring forgot what color eyes Joker had because John when his powers arenā€™t being used: theyā€™re yellow. So, Iā€™m not even completely sure that this Tuesday in this episode isnt John.
But at the same time... thereā€™s some things I canā€™t help considering that make me think itā€™s more and more likely that this is someone different. First of all, this is honestly something really big to miss. Uru-Chan is a professional... itā€™s hard to believe she couldā€™ve let this slide when her work has always been so meticulous. Also: with the way things went down this episode... it was kind of suspicious. I already talked about it a bunch above in the first part of this section that I posted first. But I didnā€™t really touch on why Tuesday just let Gavin walk because... well, Iā€™ll be honest, I didnā€™t really know what to make of it. I even said that Iā€™d elected to ignore it because it confused me... But if the Tuesday from this episode really isnā€™t John, then it all makes sense again. Like I said earlier in this half of the section, someone impersonating Joker wouldnā€™t really have to fight anyone to benefit from his power because everyone knows that Joker could kick their ass anyway, so itā€™s pointless to pick a fight. If this episodeā€™s joker had decided to pursue Gavin, it couldā€™ve lead them to a fight they wouldā€™ve been unprepared for.
Obviously, thereā€™s more to talk about for this theory, like what this could possibly mean for John, for Wellston, or who it could possibly be, but because Iā€™ve already posted this as a separarte episode analysis, I would rather save that for either a separate post this week, or as part of the next episodeā€™s analysis. Thanks for reading and sticking with me and thanks @sunshines-and-tatertots alerting me to this lol.
Cecile and John:
So, Cecileā€™s understandably pissed at John because he isnā€™t claiming his power and thatā€™s literally the only reason sheā€™s siding with him. Because she wants him to be the king. I makes sense that sheā€™s upset that heā€™s literally doing nothing instead of becoming king which would be the natural thing to do.
Johnā€™s response is literally that she needs to calm down, and while I get that he doesnā€™t feel the need to shove himself into the spotlight especially considering how he wants to keep his secret from Sera, thatā€™s just going to piss off Cecile more. Or at least is would if she wasnā€™t so terrified of John, which she obviously is. I think John is more than Cecile can handle, and she wasnā€™t excepting that. Hell, it probably takes a lot to get to that level...
This has me thinking thoughā€¦ what could this kind of turmoil causeā€¦? Iā€™m hoping that maybe (pretty pretty please), Cecile will try to leave Johnā€™s side and join Arlo and the other royals the money i would pay to see that ughā€¦ that potentialā€¦
