new episode, new dynamic I'm obsessed with. this time it's jammer and sam
I think watching them immediately back each other up in the cafeteria, I was like, you know what this looks like? they're partners in crime. speaking in glances. picking up the energy and doubling it. in on each other's schemes and plots
#mismag 2 spoilers#sam britain#whitney jammer#misfits and magic#sam and jammer have this#i dont want to say understated because its not#but maybe? subtle? is the word? kind of friendship where its like#no matter what you say im backing you up 100%#oh we're getting salads? oh we're interrogating lunch ladies? yeah no problem#absolutely

#if she’s just some random normal lady then i propose that we march the writers through the streets.#as a writer myself i rarely get too upset with what writers choose to do with their own stories#but after the whole ruby’s mum thing i will not tolerate being led on#and i actually like and am fascinated by mrs flood#so her character had better get the arc she deserves#mrs flood#anita dobson#also: she’s brian may’s wife??#like THE brian may#britain really does only have 12 famous people doesn’t it#doctor who#dw#fifteenth doctor#15th doctor#ncuti gatwa#ruby sunday#millie gibson#starlightseraph’s brainrot

Paintings that came to my mind whilst watching Alicent in 2x07.
Sir John Everett Millais: Ophelia, 1851–52 // William Shakespeare: Polonius to Ophelia in Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 1. // HBO: House of the Dragon, Alicent Hightower in 2x07 // William Shakespeare: Ophelia in Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 1 // HBO: House of the Dragon, Alicent Hightower in 2x07 // Alfred Tennyson: The Lady of Shallott, 1832 // John William Waterhouse: The Lady of Shallott, 1888 // Alfred Tennyson: The Lady of Shallott, 1832 // HBO: House of the Dragon, Alicent Hightower in 2x07 // HBO: House of the Dragon, Alicent Hightower in 2x07
#spreading my alicent/ophelia agenda#this may not be entirely sensical#but i saw these paintings at Tate Britain recently so they’re fresh in my mind lmao#and they both happen to be based upon texts that have quotes aligning with her story somewhat#ESPECIALLY ophelia#fran watches hotd#user: clamjams#the lady of shalott#ophelia#hotd#house of the dragon#hotd spoilers#hotd season 2#alicent hightower#lady alicent#queen alicent#web weaving#kind of?#quotes

Pilot Program Band AU
Some background: I'm still thinking about Meet Me @ The Altar and which of their songs best fit each member of the pilot program, and I just remembered this absolutely fucking stellar reincarnation AU Yu Yu Hakusho fic (Find Me Through Your Reprise by SZFiction) where Kuwabara and Yusuke get together due to Kuwabara making Yusuke mixtapes and introducing him to his favorite music and then ends up being reincarnated as rock star.
So Sam and K stay in touch more thab they did in canon before getting to Gowpenny.
They have their pink pals thing but when K starts leaning away from this they both decide to lean pop punk instead of emo. I'm especially picturing Sam with Edith's (mm@ta) fantastic hair do's from various shows.
They get really into pop punk music and they start writing and playing together online as a way to maintain that closeness. K plays base and Sam does the majority of vocals.
K writes alot of the songs but doesn't like singing because everytime they go to sing they can't stop themselves from leaning into this Disney princess vibe and the entire reason they stopped the pink pals thing was the discomfort that was caused as their magic began to start manifesting. Not enough to be obvious but enough to make K uncomfortable for reasons they're not sure of.
Sam and K are doing covers and posting them to a YT channel K made them. Sam's magic is also starting to manifest at this point, she's magnetic, they're magnetic. Their fanbase doesn't jump to the thousands over night but the fans who find them, who their music resonates with, are locked in.
They both start taking this more seriously and they realize they need a drummer.
Jammer is still doing basketball but he also fucking loves drumming. The feeling of nailing a cover is almost as good as the feeling of winning a game. And sometimes when it feels like he's being pulled in too many directions, he can just put in his earplugs, focus on keeping the beat and let the rest of the world fade away.
One of his teammates shows him a video from K and Sam's YT and it's like a switch flips. There's an instant connection to the two of them, he listens to all their covers and the original stuff they've put out and e-mails them to ask about being their drummer.
Sam and K get this email and watch a video of Jammer playing, and he's really good. Also he seems very chill and I think maybe both of them are a little weary of a guy coming into this thing they created to remain close and not fitting or trying to throw his weight around but even with just the email and the video - there's just something about Jammer that's reassuring. Plus he mentions he has older sisters so the three of them agree to try it out online at first.
Things go pretty well. It's hard making covers from three different cities/states but they manage with the magic of the internet. And things go so well they decide to arrange a meetup so they can record some covers and the new song K just wrote in person.
Another switch flips. Jammer has always been great but there's something about being together, being able to see each other or learning to be comfortable in each other's spaces, and suddenly the synergy is off the charts.
The stuff they filmed/recorded during that one trip is enough to really start to put them on a map and they start booking small shows here and there. Nothing too much because Jammer still has basketball but they can book stuff in the cities he does away games in and that helps.
Evan Kelmp is largely the same lonely, angry, cursed teenager that he is in canon. He still has the shadow, and the fights in gas station parking lots, and the wish that he could just be normal.
And he almost feels normal when he's listening to the music from this band one of the older teens at his last group home introduced him to. They were kind enough to give him their old Zune with a bunch of stuff loaded onto it. Obviously none of the members have his specific brand of issues but their lyrics speak to his lonelines, his self loathing and confusion. The stuff that's still there even when the demons are quiet for once.
Evan gets a text from that same teenager telling him that the band he loves is going to be playing at a show in some local guy's basement and he's almost too afraid to push his luck. Surely actually going to that show will break the illusion that he can have this one thing, but then he goes anyway because how can he not. And it's so good and he gets to actually talk to them after the set and say how much their music means to him and they're so kind and warm (and the last switch flips).
Anyway a week later all four of them get a letter and a pellet from a weird ass bird, wild.
#long post#The majority of this went into a read more because I wrote too damn much#dimension 20#misfits and magic#mismag#evan kelmp#k tanaka#sam britain#sam black#whitney jammer#Some of this is also my love of We Are Lady Parts which you should check out if you haven't!#It occurred to me based on the fic I cited as inspiration that technically speaking I made Evan =Yusuke#And Whitney/Sam/K = Kuwabara#Which I guess makes this my first pilot program polycule post

"Queen Elizabeth didn't like POTUS Trump..." says a nobody trying to be somebody during a USA election year. 🙄
As we approach the anniversary of the dearly beloved Queen Elizabeth's death, a nobody is determined to speak for QE about POTUS Trump.
This gossip is beneath the dignity of the most admired woman in the world, but it confirms how terrified these globalists are to have DJT back in the White House.
This old chestnut: "Queen Elizabeth was displeased with Donald Trump because of his behavior while inspecting the Guards..." (sigh)
Trump is a BIG guy and QE was a little woman.
youtube
To inspect the guards, POTUS was to walk quickly AHEAD of QE11, but he wanted to stroll along & chat. He's so much taller than her that he stopped as if to say, "where'd she go?"
I'm sure he was told to walk quickly for the inspection, but he stood looking around for the little, tiny Queen who then motioned (again) for him to KEEP GOING.
Melania did something similar to her husband w/her "keep going" hand motion in Israel, but people chose to make a mountain out of that molehill bc unfortunately, Melania accidentally swatted her husband's hand.
Recently at Barron's graduation, Melania laughed outloud as she coaxed her husband with both hands to sit down. I thought it was a cute moment because POTUS was beaming. It was reminiscent of Charlotte ordering Louis to "sit down" in his chair at the Platinum Jubilee celebration.
President Trump has a genuine affection for the BRF. Donald Trump's mother was born and raised in Scotland with her parents and siblings. After she emigrated to the United States, she traveled home to Scotland at least once per year with Donald's sister.
Ivana, Donald's first wife and mother of his 3 eldest children was fond of the BRF and had a friendship with Princess Diana. Ivana was born in Czechoslovakia, but also possessed citizenships in Austria and Canada where she skied and learned English before emigrating to the United States.
Of course Donald's current wife Melania is also European. Melania emigrated to the United States as a model from Slovenia.
The Trump family has always possessed a sincere admiration for Great Britain and for Queen Elizabeth. It was obvious to me that POTUS Trump looked upon Queen Elizabeth as a mother figure and would never do anything to disrespect her as a person or her professional role.
Over the years, Neal Sean, Lady C and all the other leftist royal vloggers have been giddy to share anything negative about POTUS Trump.
youtube
youtube
It makes me sad that Charles and William have pledged allegiance to the WEF and to that Great Reset. They are woefully ignorant of the repercussions of such alliances. There are dark days ahead for the UK. They better pray DJT is re-elected.
Perhaps writers should focus on what is rotten in the UK instead of QE-DJT gossip. Why not write and discuss the reasons QE felt she had to hold on (despite such intense pain) for such a very long time. She knew..., and yet she trusted God. 🥺
