He hasn’t heard much from his dad in the past year, but two goals for England and the texts start coming again.
---
He blocks his dad’s number, once, twice, another fucking time, but his father keeps getting new numbers or borrowing his mates’ phones or something and the messages keep coming.
He gives up on blocking them. What’s the fucking point?
He tries not to read the texts. He doesn’t always succeed, and he knows what they say anyway.
---
As the second game against City gets nearer the texts get longer and more frequent and nastier. Insistent. Calls too now, at all hours.
For a while, he can ignore it. Things are good. Called up for England, did well, Richmond is playing better than ever, he’s playing better than ever, there’s Roy and Keeley and the team, and Jamie’s feeling good.
But that’s the thing, isn’t it? Life can’t get too good, because when it does his dad will always come sniffing around, mean old stray looking for juiciest pieces of meat to sink his teeth into, always snapping, snapping, growling, biting, and this ain’t the sort of dog you can jut put down, is it?
Only way to keep it at bay is to never have anything it wants.
But fuck that, because Jamie’s worked fucking hard for this, his life, he’s fought for everything he has and he’s not going to let some nasty old sod ruin it for him or take it away.
So he ignores it, texts and calls and everything, and for a while he can.
---
In the end, it’s not even something in particular that gets to him. No escalation, no sudden appearance of James Tartt in the flesh, no broken beer bottles conspiciously dropped outside his door. In the end, it’s just coming back from his early morning session with Roy to another four missed calls and three drunken voice messages, and just like that, he’s done.
He comes to practice wrapped in barbed wire, donning the old attitude like armour, and if asked he couldn’t even tell you why. Just seems easier, somehow.
---
They all see right through him, and he doesn’t know how to feel about that. Terrified. Stupid. Grateful. Known.
Cared for.
Roy still makes him run an extra ten laps after practice for being an arsehole to everyone instead of telling someone what was going on like you fucking should have, but then he squeezes his shoulder and brings him home to Keeley and makes them dinner while she helps him change his number and make sure everyone who needs to has the new one.
---
“We’ve spoken to City,” Ms. Welton – Rebecca – tells him. “They’ve agreed to ban Mr. Tartt from the premises for our upcoming game.”
The relief is a surprise; the intensity of it. He hadn’t realized until now how much the notion of his father being there had messed with him; his father, watching him, screaming, the sound of his name in that hateful mouth. Only now, when the threat is gone, does he recognize the severity of it.
---
When they news break they’re already on the way to Manchester. Colin is the first to notice and he curses softly and calls for Jamie and tells Isaac and then the whole coach knows.
The Sun: “Star Striker’s Dad Banned from City Game.”
And that’s his dad feigning a look of gentle devastation and it’s all about how Jamie’s money and fame has gone to his head, how he can’t even let his dad watch the game because he’s embarrassed of his humble beginnings, right shame, isn’t it, when people forget where they came from as soon as they make it big? Walked out on City after everything they put into him, didn’t he, and now he’s cutting ties with his family too just ‘cause they’re poor and not educated like, what sort of dickhead does that? “Kid’s turned his back on his roots, thinks he’s too good for us now.”
Manchester City declines to comment, other than to confirm that yes, at the request of AFC Richmond Mr. James Tartt will be prevented from attending the match. Nothing else they can say, really, not without revealing things that aren’t theirs to reveal.
The coach goes quiet, the way the dressing room had done at Wembley last year. Then they rally, anger and encouragements and just ignore it, man and it feels good and it makes him want to hide. He has no fucking idea what to say to them, except yeah, no, it’s some bullshit, yeah.
Ted and Beard huddle together, whispering furiously. Roy’s typing away at his phone, looking especially like he wants to murder someone.
Sam, next to him, doesn’t say anything at all at first, just gives him a small nod. A few minutes later he offers, “My dad says to tell you good luck with the game, you’ll do great.”
And he should feel pathetic for finding comfort in that, maybe, but he doesn’t, much.
The game starts in a few hours. Long enough for everyone to have seen it by then, not long enough to put together a coherent response.
---
The boos and angry noise of the crowd is a furious buzzing in his ears and he squares his shoulders and eyes on the ball and the match is what fucking matters, everything else is just poopy, stupid fucking shit, doesn’t matter—
He plays like he means to outplay the devil himself. Plays like it would have been easy, had old Nick cared to show up.
The booing never stops, not even when Pep makes a point of coming over to him for a quick cuddle and few encouraging words after the final whistle.
---
And they’re back in the dressing room after and the press is clamouring for a conference just a few doors down and Keeley’s driven all the way up from London and they’re all talking strategies and damage control and spinning the narrative and it’s doing his head in. All of them blabbering on and on and on and—
“Can we just tell them the fucking truth?”
That shuts them up. They all stare at him. Higgins is the first to speak. “Do you – do you want to do that?”
No, he doesn’t say. Of course I don’t wanna fucking do that.
But the thing is, everyone that matters already knows, don’t they? So what’s the difference, really, with telling the whole fucking world?
It’s a huge fucking difference, something in him whispers.
He closes his eyes for a moment. Opens them again. All right. “Just think it’s the best thing to do, yeah?”
And there’s murmurs of agreement and Keeley’s looking at him like maybe she wants to cry and he can’t look at her looking like that so he looks away.
Roy catches his eyes. “You want me there with you?”
And yeah, he does want that and he’s too exhausted to pretend otherwise. “Yeah,” he says. “Thanks.”
---
“Are you ashamed of your father, Jamie?”
A moment, then, when it’s still not too late. He can still change his mind. He can still lie. No one has to know: he can still be the untouchable Jamie Tartt, confident and arrogant and never ever a victim.
Fuck that.
“Yeah. I am.”
---
There’s no avoiding the snippets afterwards because they are fucking everywhere but he never watches the whole thing and so he’s not entirely clear on what he really says. Bits and pieces stay with him, though:
“If I’d told ‘em here at City, my coaches and stuff, they’d have helped. I know they would have. But I was too fucking ashamed, yeah, so I never told anyone and I went off to do this stupid reality show instead and I did a whole bunch of stupid shit just ‘cause I was scared about people finding out about me and my dad. Never wanted anyone to know any of that shit.”
And:
“And I know, right, that there are people who’ll say I shouldn’t be in football if I can’t take a hit, like what the fuck am I gonna do when I’m tackled on the pitch and stuff. But that’s different, yeah? I fucking signed up for that. Didn’t sign up for my dad being a huge fucking dickhead, did I?”
And:
“I’m done being ashamed.”
---
There’s Roy too, near the end, and something about making it seem like aggression and violence is a normal thing and how that is part of the problem and how he’s going to do better from now on, and Jamie wants to tell him that, no, Roy has never been the problem, Jamie ain’t ever been scared of him, that’s really not it at all, but Roy does have a point too, doesn’t he, so Jamie keeps quiet.
---
“Was it all right?” he asks, afterwards, when the door’s closed to the press room and it’s just him and Roy and Keeley in the corridor.
“It was great,” Keeley tells him, stepping close to wrap her arms around him. “It was perfect.” Leaning back a little, she runs a hand over his cheek, “I’m really proud of you, Jamie.”
“Yeah, me too,” Roy says and his hug is just half a thing, one arm wrapped around Jamie’s shoulders and pulling him close, but it’s enough to relax into, to rest in.
Keeley’s looking at both of them like they hung the fucking stars.
“How about dinner?” she asks. “Don’t wanna drive all the way back tonight, think I’ll just get a hotel.”
“Yeah, I’m fucking starving,” Roy says.
And okay. He can’t be disappointed about that. Of course they’d want some time together. “Yeah, okay, yeah. Should be heading for the coach anyway. You have fun, yeah?”
The look they exchange is dismayed.
“No,” Roy says, sounding like he’s trying very hard not to sound angry. “You’re coming to dinner with us. Keeley will drive us back in the morning.”
“Unless you’d rather go back now with the rest of the team,” Keeley quickly adds, shooting Roy a pointed glare.
And oh. Okay. “No, yeah, dinner sounds good.”
---
They make him go say goodbye to the lads first, let them know you’re all right, and it’s still with him when they head out into the Manchester night, Colin’s arms around him and Sam’s quiet smile and Dani’s hands on his shoulders and Isaac’s muttered you’re gonna be okay, bruv.
He carries all of it with him, and it makes him feel light.
---
Coda:
“So, Roy,” Ted asks, leaning back into his office chair. ”Got any big plans for the break?”
“Keeley and I are trying for Marbella again. Only two weeks, she can’t be away from the firm any longer. Jamie’s joining us after he’s done with that football camp thing for disadvantaged kids.”

Top things I want from season four of Ted lasso:
1) James tartt senior to meet with an “unfortunate” accident that claims his life. (That can’t be traced back to Roy nor Rebecca)
2) to learn dr O’Sullivan’s first name. (HOW did we have multiple scenes with Roy Kent’s sister IN it, and never learn her first name!!?!?!?)
#I’d also really like Roy/jamie to go cannon#or Roy/jamie/keeley#but I don’t feel like those are realistic hopes#ted lasso#jamie tartt#roy kent#jamie tartt/roy kent#roy fucking kent#roy kent x jamie tartt#roy x jamie#roy/jamie#keeley jones#roy/keeley/jamie#ted lasso season 4#season four#I have hopes#fuck James tartt senior#Roy Kent’s sister#dr O’Sullivan

Shoutout to trans people who keep their birth name, btw. I love you and you’re so fucking cool. You are no less valid just because your name doesn’t “match” your current gender identity. (the idea of gendered names is bullshit anyways but we can’t deny it’s very pervasive.) If you change it later, awesome! If you still feel attached to your birth name and use it for the rest of your life, also awesome!! (This is valid for any reason btw. Sentimental reasons, cultural/family reasons, safety reasons, you just can’t separate your name from your identity, literally whatever.)
#brought to you by my transfem friend who still goes by Michael while used she/her pronouns.#she also dresses very masc and I love her for it.#also by my trans woman dnd character whose name is Luca James Keeley#morrigan.text#queer#trans#transgender#trans pride#and ofc while I have yet to meet a transmasc person who still uses his birth name they are also included in this.

Tell me about belted!
From this WIP Titles ask game. (Chapter One has been published since this post was originally written!)
It’s my fic where James Tartt Sr shows up after the Watford game and tries to force Jamie into agreeing to end Roy’s career. When Jamie refuses, because that’s fucking mental, James ties him to the newel post and takes a belt to his back. And then…gets carried away.
I posted a bit one hundred years ago but I added a little extra to it just for you!
Technically, management had said that anyone who wanted to opt out could. It’s just that everyone was going to be flocked by news reporters angling for soundbites. And Keeley didn’t want anyone to be shocked enough to answer outside of the officially approved statements.
Which is how the team came to be eating lunch while listening to a harrowing 999 call made by one of Jamie’s neighbors.
Keeley explained that it was a retired couple -the Millers- who Jamie watered plants for when they were on one of their cruises. Any other time, half the team would be thrilled to get a tidbit like Jamie Tartt helps his elderly neighbors. But that information being the context for why the woman talking to dispatch was crying made it sour in everyone’s stomachs.

Met Gala: Who's Repping Who:
Nicholas Galitzine in Fendi
At least his pants are tailored unlike at the Academy Museum
because the interwebs is giving Donald Glover (in Saint Laurent) the business.
Nevermind that he looks like a Baptist preacher; or apparently a member of The Whispers.
One thing Marc Malkin of Variety is going to do is talk to Nicholas (who spots his RED, WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE costar Uma Thurman on the red carpet).
Uma Thurman, part of Team Tory Burch (with BLUE BEETLE's Bruna Marquezine).
I'm somewhat disappointed Nicholas is wearing fitted clothes. I want those pregnant Henry memes to continue.
apologies to Lea Michele (in Rodarte)
-Galitzine's THE IDEA OF YOU producer Gabrielle Union and husband Dwayne Wade in Michael Kors
PARTIES OF ONE
Doja Cat in Vetements
Damiano David of Maneskin and Dove Cameron in Diesel
The Others
Lily James in Erdem
Lizzo in Victor Weinsanto
Sarah Jessica Parker in Richard Quinn with a Philip Treacy hat
Da'vine Joy Randolph in Gap designed by Zac Posen
Lana Del Rey in Alexander McQueen
Stray Kids in Tommy Hilfiger
Lily Gladstone in Gabriela Hearst
Kieran Culkin in KidSuper
Jeremy Strong in Loro Piana
Matthew Macfayden and Keeley Hawes
Chloe Sevigny in Dilara Findikoglu
Sydney Sweeney in Miu Miu
Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga
Jennifer Lopz in Schiaparelli Couture
Someone photoshopped a gele on her and it looks so right.
