The Tower

Featuring @ramshacklerumble 's Yuu, Gia.

As you all may have guessed, I don't have enough TWST OCs to completely fill up the Major Arcana. So... I decided to call in some help and reached out to a few friends that I have developed dynamics and interactions with over the course of the year. I consulted them on picking out which OCs and assigning them to the cards. I also have kept them in the loop regarding WIPs and sketch ideas, to make sure I am representing their OCs adequately. I'm not going to lie, it's been a wonderful way to get to know folks's OCs on a deeper level.

I personsally don't have a Yuu for a handful of reasons. I've found it honestly makes it much easier to collab with other people, and to be honest, I personally struggle with the idea of self-inserts. Not that I have anything against them, but I really struggle conceptually with imagining myself in fictional settings. So the fact that there are other folks I can happily work with who really love their yuusonas makes it an all-around better time.

Following the actual story of TWST, Gia (Yuu) felt like the most accurate choice for representing the Tower. The day that the Ramshackle Prefect showed up was the day things rapidly began to change at NRC. The collective understanding about how "things were supposed to go" was instantly put into question, and incident after incident without repreive unfolded with the Prefect at the crux of it. The Prefect is the Tower.

Euphoria ⚠️spoiler warning⚠️

I HAVE TO WAIT TWO YEARS FOR FEZ AND LEXI AND IM NOT OKAY.

Anyway, let’s gets started.

Euphoria is a feeling or state of intense excitement and happiness.

The story centered on group of high school aged students- all with their own problems that include drugs, drink and sex. This show focuses on the pain, and tragedies of a group of friends.

The story created and produced by Sam Levinson, centers on the main character Rue Bennett.

Euphoria starts off by introducing Rue Bennett, a 17 year old struggling with substance abuse. Rue returns home after spending summer in rehab due to a nasty overdose where she was found in her own vomit by her sister Gia. Rue is considered an addict after her failed attempt at staying away from narcotics. Rue’s story is overwhelmed by the onslaught of her six friends (jules, Cassie, Kat, Maddy, Lexi,and Fez) painful stories.

Jules, a 17 year old transgender girl, who just moves into town meets Rue. Jules has her own baggage, she is attracted to much older and overtly homophobic men. Jules and Rue meet, hitting it off. Both trying to figure out who they are and become each other’s partner in crime. Both have understandable and relatable anxieties and mental roadblocks. What stands in their way are classmates that they have failed to connect too. Among these classmates one stands in their way the most, Nate Jacobs.

Nate Jacobs is a 17 year old star quarterback. He’s tall, cut, and very well-off. He is the main star in parties where he does what most male jocks do, he drinks, flexes (those damn muscles), and sleeps with the hottest girl he can find. (Which is usually his on-again and off-again girlfriend Maddy Perez.) Together they are the definition of ‘toxic romance’. Nate’s dark past is the main reason for his toxicity, which leads him to grow up as a even darker teenager. This boy is a self-obsessed, and problematic white male that goes beyond the normal level of toxicity.

The show progresses by explaining the stories of how these teens came to be in very jarring way.

Euphoria isn’t for the weak, it is intense, and very painful. This show covers some pretty haunting teen experiences. This show covers horrible situations that include Statutory rape, murder, abuse, and drugs. There are unsettling scenes that involve older men masturbating to webcam videos of underage females. For some this show would be very unsettling, so I’d advise to watch with caution.

This show is so intense that it will keep you on your feet.

Personally I really liked this drama, it kept me wanting more. I did feel uncomfortable with certain scenes, but this is a HBO series and not a kdrama so I knew what I was getting into. I did relate to some topics in this show and that made me feel so emotional that I did have to cry in the tub for a little bit. I hated the feelings it gave me, but at the same time, I had a sense of relief, because although my story was bad, it wasn’t as bad as euphoria, that I was grateful for.

Do I recommend the show? Yes and no, I wouldn’t recommend it to my parents… for obvious reasons. But to friends who I know would like it yes.

Should you watch this show? Yes and no, again this show is hardcore. I wouldn’t recommend to those who have had bad experiences in high school, because this show is very triggering. It talks about drugs, sex, abuse, and su*cide it isn’t something to watch for fun. Yes you will fall in love with characters, then you’ll wish they’d exit themselves from other characters lives.

Why I watched it : This show was pretty popular, I wanted to experience it myself.

Will I continue watching it when season 3 comes out? YES! I need to know what will happen to Fez!

Anyway, thanks for reading. I’ll probably post about each character in a couple of my next posts. First I’m going to go check out some Fez and Lexi fanfics…. Because I just found out those exist. 😛

blonde & bubbly : 10.29

in this episode: a recap of the hills at the one year mark and the most recent awards

sabine: hello and welcome to very first episode of blonde and bubbly! i’m sabine al-masri and i’m here with my lovely cohost, business partner, and beautiful fellow blonde madison ware.

madi: hi everyone! Like Sabine just said, I’m madison and i’m so excited to be here today and chat with you guys today! For the very first episode of our new podcast we’re going to do a little recap of everything that happened to past year on the show, to celebrate the one year anniversary of the reboot! 

sabine: so since i have only been here since june, madi will cover the first half of the hills and i will cover the second, so madi, the floor is yours. also, today’s podcast is sponsored by veuve clicquot, madi and i will be opening and drinking a nice bottle of 2008 vintage brut rose on today’s airing.

madi: thank you peach! so when the reboot of the show started back in november 2016, there was a completely different atmosphere if i can say so. A lot of the first cast members left, i think there less than ten original members left? Kazi got with Mia in december and Finn was with a girl named Kate. The first couple of the show were Brenda and Miguel, i cant exactly remember if they got together at her iconic birthday party or not. Miguel was such a funny guy, he always had jokes and was nice to see on the timeline. They’re both parents now. A few weeks later came Sonny, Quentin and Noemi, some of the most appreciated cast members here. Then Sawyer,Sabrina, Xavier and Thomas. Thomas and I rapidly got close and became best friends, although people always said we had a thing and were dating, which was not true. we were also in a sorta triangle love type of thing. at the time i was helping a friend, named kai, who needed a fake girlfriend. so of course i said id do it and pretend to be with him and all. but i was very close to thomas, and everyone could see it. they thought i was cheating on kai with thomas, sawyer even came at me for this, i remember it perfectly. then kai left and thomas’ kid was born and he got with riley. i had this thing with a guy named reese, but he was always fighting with everyone on the timeline and never actually happy? i remember nobody understood what i liked in him. He was actually a very nice guy, but had definitely a lot of issues. 

sabine: and for the second half of the hills recap, i have a shit memory so i’ll be using things from gossip as highlights. i don’t remember much from the beginning of my time here, but there was that raf, kai, bella drama i remember. that love triangle. that was kana was a huge player too, and him and erin had their drama. sawyer was with aiden, yaya and carina were that on and off thing. 

madi: then summer came along and we got a lot of new people, including toni, aries & adrian. a lot of the old problematic cast left, thank god. things were rather calm at that moment. I think just a few weeks before that i broke up with reese and then we almost got officially back together but he cheated on me with one of my friends, so i was having kind of a rough time. but i got back on my feet and traveled and forgot about him. 

sabine: It was  also around that time that Antigone joined the show, right? funny story here, we used to be friends and then i hated her and now we’re the best of friends again. i didn’t like her “married men” phase and not a lot of people did either, i remember she got a lot of shit for it. larkin was a cry baby back then and so was astraea. some anon i remember called atlas and jinyoung from the start so congrats to that anon. i never knew that erin was pregnant with kana’s baby, was that true?

madi: Acutally i still dont know if this is true or not!

sabine: there was that huge baby fever eruption over the summer and people had those stupid rumors about kazi cheating on mia. can i just say? to anyone who thinks kazi and mia would ever cheat on each other? you’re an idiot. oh, elijah got mugged right? that was wild.

madi: the cheating rumors have been here since the start and they’re just..pathetic. It’s sad to think that someone spent a year sending those to a gossip. and it’s so sad to see two of your close friends go through that.  i also forgot to mention, the golden couple had their wedding back in july. it was a beautiful ceremony, however, like at every events on this show, someone acted like a fool and made it all about them. that someone? is crazy astronaut girl. yes, astraea. i think she broke her hand at the reception then wouldnt stop complaining about it. she was probably in a fight with blayze.

sabine: he has a thing with astraea! she was literally in love with him. dean and barbie were together at that point. i think thomas and i were dating at this point too, it was kind of on and off around the time of the wedding. okay here’s another anon i want to point out. “who the fuck is libby and why do people like her”. to answer that libby is an amazing human being and people don’t like her, they love her. javon and naomi were a thing. jagger and thorne became athing. sofia and finn were a thing. antigone and raf had their beef.

madi: astraea was obsessed with blayze and with the idea of having a boyfriend really. there were a lot of couples at that time, and they all broke up a few weeks later. 

sabine: and this part is gold, when asked who the cutest couples were, gossip responded “gia & fitz, aiden & sawyer, finn & sofia.” that just shows you how far we’ve traveled. and people thought bryce was some kind of casanova who went around breaking hearts for fun, which couldn’t be further from the truth. a few weeks later aries and toni got together and stayed together for a while, until she broke things off. another bashir joined the show too, Abel. he and sabrina immediately got into a relationships. around the same time or so, antigone and adrian had broken up, again. and missy joined the show. she had a thing with him, and sadly left because she didnt feel welcomed. 

madi: then fall came along and some people from the past came back, like effy, cyrus and sofia. and this is where im going to stop the recap, because if you’ve watched a few recent episodes of the show, you know what happened. if you havent, you can always watch them all online on mtv’s website! 

sabine: and now moving on to last night’s awards, there are some that i saw and was like bullshit, you know? what did you think mads?

madi: i think the reactions we inevitable! i kinda expected them and thought i wouldnt be surprised by the results of the votes, but i was. 

sabine: the first award that kind of threw me off guard was the most under appreciated one, i don’t know how rallo weaseled his way in there but i don’t think he should have placed. i mean if people really got to know him the way i have, i would say there’s not much to appreciate.

madi: really? i love rallo, he’s one of my best friends. he knows literally everything about me. i didnt expect people to vote for him tho, but im actually happy they did. i see a lot of his tweets that arent about his idiotic musicallys get unanswered and it angers me. i hate when people here ignore others. 

sabine: for cutest couple, i would have placed q, sonny and noemi in first place. they’ve just always been constant and loving and i don’t think, as far as i can remember, them having issues. so i think they should have at least tied for first, or been first.

madi: i think it wasnt a surpise that mia and kazi won. what i was surprised to see tho is that antigone and adrian won, seeing by the anons on the gossip i never knew people really thought they were cute or so. it’s nice to see them top a couple like mazi. i also completely agree with what you said on quentin, noemi and sonny, we love an unproblematic couple. to be honest, i hate to pick between couples, i feel like im always betraying one of my friends, am i the only one? probably.

sabine: here is what pissed me off the most, the cutest couple that never was. adrian and toni, me and kazi, and fitz and gia. i don’t know why any of those recieved votes or the votes that they did, but whoever voted for those hasn’t been paying attention. adrian and toni for starters, aren’t close like they used to be, so maybe a couple months ago they would’ve actually made a “cute” couple but now, no way. me and kazi, are just friends, i’ve said before he’s like a cousin to me. and fitz and gia were a couple weren’t they? or am i wrong?

madi: well first of all, adrian and toni were never a couple i believe so? just like kazi and you, right? a troll sent yall names and people just decided to go for you guys. as for fitz and gia, they were together for a long time and were very cute, so i understand why some people voted for them. 

sabine: well that’s a wrap on our very first podcast. thank you so much for tuning in, and next week we’ll have a special guest joining us. madi, will you sign us off?

madi: it would be an honor! thank you everyone for listening to us! i hope to see you all during the press tour, we’re madison & sabine from the hills, blonde and had too much bubbly so it’s time to say goodbye and we’ll see you next time!
