#jatp: Bright

[danandfuckingjonlmao]

i’ll never forget that the first time i watched julie and the phantoms, during the last episode after they became corporeal and hugged i just shouted “THEY CAME BACK TO LIFE BECAUSE OF THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP” and immediately burst into tears

Julie and the Phantoms: Choose your favorite song!

Listen to the songs below the cut!

[1mnobodywhoareyou]

ok but imagine as Julie's standing there awkwardly like "oh no my band disappeared" and somebody just yells out from the back of the gymnasium, "THEY DON'T EVEN GO HERE!"

[maniacace]

it's that time of the year again

[writerownstory]

do we think Luke gave Julie Bright and then told the boys about it or vice versa?

I just really love that the boys seem to be like “oh Julie is gonna use an old Sunset Curve song to get her place back in the music program? cool let’s go support her!!!” it’s very found family of them 🥹🥰

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your five favorite fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers! Spread the self-love. ❤️

This made my day, thank you!

this was. so hard. I have 150 jatp fics ALONE. but i did my best. @joyandthephantoms suggested I narrow them down by making five arbitrary categories that my writing represents and picking one from each so i did that :)

don't get too comfortable (next time you turn around) (favorite Plot Fic)

i'm starting to think i like the sound of you (favorite shipfic, though it could be read platonically, i just love the Relationship of them)

i'll take my heart clean apart (if it helps yours beat) (favorite characterization fic, mostly of ray but i said smart things about rose and bobby too)

we were changed in an instant (favorite sickfic... of many...... i have a brand)

though the whole world seems to rage and scream (favorite language fic)

Thank you for the ask!!

Bonus Honorable mention to my favorite bright sessions fic i've written: please learn from my mistakes (please learn from my mistakes) (the plot and the characterization of mark bryant and the language are all really good imho)

[chillychive]

I feel the need to remind everyone that Reggie's a ghost who can TELEPORT and my guy literally flipped BACKWARD over a beanbag chair instead!

[ginnyrules27]

You know, in terms of background extras, I think this guy deserves a big hug. He sees Julie on the stage, looks at his list (trying to see if she’s supposed to perform probably) and then just goes ‘eh’ and turns the sound up on Julie’s equipment. 

We know the guys haven’t added Julie’s name to the list because they didn’t even know how to pick stuff up yet. So this guy (who I’m calling Ben by the way, he needs a name!) really has no reason to help Julie out and yet does so anyway. 

Ben’s a good bean.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

literally all of them???? uhhhhh for jatp i've killed just about everyone but the most unmentionable ones are learn to live with the unimaginable (carlos) and i miss the days when (luke survives). for lockwood it's probs but the wolves came and went (and we're still standing) aka my torture fic. one of my personal favs is my flash fic, Betrayal (Or, how he finds out) ALSO ALMOST FORGOT i thought i was innocent (but there is blood all on my hands) for bright sessions!!

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

i do happen to have some fluff fics!!! you are alive. is one of my favs of my jatp ones, and what a glorious feeling (i'm happy again) for lockwood. also shoutout to i need you like water for my happy green boys kissing in the rain

nope! i think i maybe sorta did once, but i just screenshotted it to share with my friends and laugh about it lol

no, but im not opposed to someday doing it. the closest i've gotten is i hate you i love you (i hate that i want you) for bright sessions or what a glorious feeling for locklyle

i sorta did once, but that fic is abandoned. i tend to do more of aus "just the one scene" combining my fav things, but not really crossovers

Not that I know of

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope, though i wouldn't be opposed!

oh i cannot ever pick!!! percabeth is a childhood fav, elias/laia from an ember in the ashes (my favorite book of all time), bellarke (i refuse to believe rothenburg on that), juke and locklyle and green boys and nahri/ali from the daveabad trilogy (i love them)

physical injuries/angst is what i'm best at! also comign up with teh most niche of au ideas but only for one scene and nothing else lol

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

i wish i could write flowery language and amazing metaphors, but alas, i cannot

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

i've only really done it for jatp which i feel like was what everyone was doing in that era? idk, i try not to do it too often. tho i do still really want to include sign language into a fic because i actually know that

19. First fandom you wrote for?

the 100, though i wrote some of my own stuff for Lost and Narnia before that

20. Favorite fic you've written?

Julie and the Phantoms: Choose your favorite song!

[1mnobodywhoareyou]

these gifsets triggered a new headcanon. I can't remember if anyone's explored this already in fics I've read but...

Luke died with Bright in his pocket. It's too worn to have been pulled from his notebook and that's why Bobby couldn't/didn't steal it.

(also I have QUESTIONS about his notebook)

[laylajoon]

These lyrics are so juke coded😭

[aotgylbk]

i was like nuh uh i will not cry during bright because this is what luke wrote about him and alex being together in the ‘90 when people weren’t as supportive of lgbt as they are now but no here tears running down my face with the speed of sound
