For the mood board game thing. This probably is hyper specific but college dorm blanket fort juke please. Hahaha. You seem like you would know about such things 😜

holy wow...let's not look at the date you sent this to me..and also the date that I put this moodboard into my drafts I don't have a summary for this per say..it's mostly just cozy Autumn vibes, but here is what I'm thinking - Maybe Luke and Julie meet in their college dorm...both of them there to study something that isn't necessarily their passion - Luke's parents won't pay for a music degree, and Julie can't bring herself to play music since her mom passed. They get paired up in a class, and become something close to friends. It's approaching a holiday break...but neither of them are going home. Julie can't afford to fly back, Luke is avoiding his parents. They end up being some of the only students in their building for a few days. The dorm cafeteria is closed so she runs into him in the shared kitchen burning scrambled eggs (and trying to salvage them with peanut butter), he finds her in the lounge binging some terrible reality show and gets sucked right in (he says it's because she has snacks and she graciously shared). One of them invites the other to walk across campus to the undergrad pub for a "real meal", which turns into an invitation to a movie night in Julie's dorm, which then turns into some light-hearted teasing from Luke about the amount of throw pillows she owns (courtesy of Tia Victoria, she says) and that turns into Luke putting the throw pillows to use in a blanket fort while Julie picks the movie and raids her care-package stash for the best snacks. I'm not sure how it ends...but because it's me there's probably going to be a first kiss, maybe the blanket fort coziness gets to them and they end up dozing off together and she cooks him eggs the next morning (sans peanut butter and crispy burnt bits of course) and they live happily ever after as college sweethearts. The end.

Its so stupid, but I saw your tags on the forced rhubarb post

And was like, "it might have been a terrible trip, but we can make it juke/jatp"

Julie stealing Luke's flannel

Luke trying to write a melody with the rhubarb as the percussion

Reggie complaining about the lack of snacks

Etc. Etc.

Anyway 😅 hope you are doing well!

pls know i saw this before i went to bed last night and it had me giggling so much i swear my dreams were rhubarb themed dkfhfg

the mental image of them being in this pitch black room all being told to be quite when all of a sudden there's a flash of light as luke turns his phone on so he can record 'the authentic sounds of rhubarb growing alex! we could totally use this for a killer song'

Happy Fanfic Writers Appreciation Day!

Thank you for writing things that affect me down to my soul. I know you've had a harder time recently with writing (finding motivation, finding time) but always know that whenever you share something is when it was meant to be shared.

thank you so much for joining the taters and then the gubs and being such a support system to the spirals. they could not have spiraled so fast or so hard without you.

<3 <3 <3

Joolee I’m 🥺🥺

This seriously means the world!! I’m so genuinely thankful for you and our friendship. Best decision I made in the last few years was watching jatp and deciding to pick up writing again because it let to you and the rest of our wonderful group chat!

Our spirals hold a very special place in my heart (#onlyskates 😝) and I look forward to many more!

Love you, friend! And happy Fanfic Writers Appreciation Day to YOU too!! Thanks again so much for these lovely words 💙

yeah this is exactly what I mean!! put 'em right in the tags! fanartists check tags! we love tags on your reblogs!

not trying to put anyone on blast, but this is exactly the kind of interaction that fanfic writers and fanartists on this site are begging you to move away from. this isn't tiktok or instagram or twitter, where engagement is driven by likes and replies. if you like something on tumblr you need to REBLOG it so it gets spread around! 50% of the reblogs on the post this comment is replying to are from me, the original poster!! because no one reblogs anything on this site anymore! you like it, awesome! now reblog it! otherwise the post I made, the fanwork I spent hours/days making, just sits on my blog and goes nowhere. YOU the reader drive engagement by ENGAGING with the material on this site. it has always been a challenge for fanfiction writers on this site to get any kind of traction or reblogs, but it is only getting worse with the influx of users from other social media platforms where you are encouraged to do no more than click like and keel scrolling. a reply/comment on the post is nice, and appreciated! but it doesn't do anything to share the work. reblog the stuff you like to support the artists and writers you like.

They walk in silence for a few minutes. Julie's thoughts bounce between her anger and frustrations, and the boy walking next to her whose eyes burn into her every time they glance over. She has no clue what's she is going to say to Flynn when they arrive. Eventually, he decides to ask the question that's apparently been on the tip of his brain since she exited the store.

"Are you guys having, like, a bake sale or something?"

When the night she has planned almost ends before it starts, Julie recruits Luke (and by proxy the rest of Sunset Curve) to help her and Flynn pull off a revenge scheme of epic proportions.

Hoping to only gain a little bit of vengeance, Julie is unprepared for the memories and relationships that begin to blossom.

----------------------------------------------------------

Excerpt under the cut

Julie made a mistake. It happened... occasionally.

Look, Tetris has never been her game. And all of her instruments have custom bags with nice fitted slots for them to go into. So how was she to realize the six dozen eggs she just bought wouldn't fit in the reusable grocery bag she'd brought with her? The cartons were just barely too long to sit properly in the bottom so she couldn't even use the darn thing to carry a couple of them lest a carton open up and eggs start breaking inside the bag. She needs like an egg carton... crate or something. She glares at the store's bags fluttering in the air conditioning, taunting her with their ability to hold a carton of eggs. She doesn't have any cash to pay for them and the store has a minimum for card.

Sighing, she loops the handles of her bag up to her elbow and slowly starts stacking the cartons in her arms. Guess she will have to GusGus her way out of this one. It's going to take her so long to get back to Flynn. Tucking the last carton under her chin, she slowly brings her hand back down to add support to the bottom of the stack. Then slowly, carefully, she makes her way towards the exit of the store.

The doors slide open at her approach and hot summer air hits her, accompanied by the thrumming chords of a guitar from Luke, the guy that likes to busk near this corner shop in Malibu. He was a nice guy, easy on the eyes. Very. Easy. Julie had stopped many times to listen/talk to him when she was in the area to hang out at Carrie's. Anger floods her at the thought of her now ex-friend.

The guitar screeched to an abrupt stop.

"Whoa, Julie. Do you need help?"

She pauses and considers, but doesn't want to impose. She knows he needs the money he makes from busking to get things for his band.

"O-oh, no. I've got it." She takes another step forward, her shoe immediately catching on a parking block, and she's suddenly tilting forward. Of course this is how she is to go. In a pile of raw eggs in a parking lot on a humid night in front of the guy she's been crushing on for months now. Of course.

Hands catch her shoulders, preventing that sad reality from happening. "Are you sure about that, boss? I don't mind walking with you."

Heat flames her cheeks at the teasing tone, but she doesn't have time to let her embarrassment dictate her actions right now. So, reluctantly looking up at him, she relents. The moment their eyes make contact, the corners of his lips lift up in a soft smile. Despite all the twisted emotions running within her, her stomach flutters.

"Yeah, that'd be helpful. Thanks."

"Let me just.." He gestures behind him at his guitar case awkwardly, before rushing to pack up his things. Slinging the case to his back, he steps back up to her. "Alright, give me half."

She shifts her feet. "I think you will have to take them from me. Something is bound to fall if I move."

"Oh, right!" He quickly, but carefully, takes the top three cartons from her. "Lead the way!"

Julie nods her head to the left. "It's that way."

They walk in silence for a few minutes. Julie's thoughts bounce between her anger and frustrations, and the boy walking next to her whose eyes burn into her every time they glance over. She has no clue what's she is going to say to Flynn when they arrive. Eventually, he decides to ask the question that's apparently been on the tip of his brain since she exited the store.

"Are you guys having, like, a bake sale or something?"

She smirks humorlessly, turning onto the street with the gradual hill upwards. Walls now line the manicured lawns instead of a sidewalk, forcing them to walk in the street. The further they travel, the larger the houses beyond those walls gets.

"Not exactly." Her reply hangs between them. She knows she should offer more explanation than that, but maybe the less he knows the better. Instead, she asks, "What have you been working on recently?"

An elated grin spreads across Luke's face before he jumps right into talking about the latest songs he's been working on. It's actually quite pleasant. The last vestiges of the sun setting, a cool breeze offsetting the heat radiating from the pavement of the street. The attention of her crush smiling down at her. It would be perfect any other night.

The curve of the street eventually reveals a figure with a large package waiting out front of one of the mansions.

"Jules!" Flynn's figure steps out from the shadows of the property's wall. "What took you so long? What's Luke doing here?"

Luke answers before Julie can. "Hey! I insisted on helping after Julie almost immediately dropped all these eggs in the parking lot."

Flynn shoots Julie an unimpressed raised eyebrow. Julie shrugs her shoulders, minding not to jostle the eggs too much. While the girls are silently communicating, Luke's gaze seems to have registered the package at Flynn's feet is an 18-pack of toilet paper and begins to bounce back and forth between it and the eggs. The toilet paper, then the eggs in his arms, back to the toilet paper, to the eggs in Julie's arms, comprehension registers on his face.

"Whoa. What did someone do to piss you two off?"

1, 16, 37, 46

I hope i got the numbers right 😂😂

Hi, hello 👋🏻 thank you for playing! Cookies for you! 🍪🍪🍪🍪

1. What are three shows in your watchlist that you’ve been meaning to get to?

I am actually the worst for saying “oh, I’m gonna watch that!” And then instead going back and rewatching my old favourites (*cough* JatP *cough*), so I could for sure list more than 3 but, off the top of my head:

Abbott Elementary

Our Flag Means Death

Outlander (one day I *will* finish it, I swear)

16. Describe your favorite hoodie. How long have you had it? What makes it unique?

My favourite is an oversized cobalt blue hoodie, it’s worn in all the right places and the inside is so soft. It’s missing the hood string, but that just adds to its charm.

I got it as part of an outdoor ed program I took in high school, so I’ve had it for..twelve years (doing that math physically hurt me jsyk). It has the acronym of the program and the program year in Roman numerals stitched on it in white thread. It also used to have my nickname from the program stitched on the left arm, but it was related to an ex-boyfriend of mine so I ripped it out a few years ago so I didn’t have to keep explaining what it meant to people over and over again 😅

37. Do you mind if others are in the kitchen when you’re cooking or baking?

In my own home, yes. GTFO of my kitchen. But my kitchen is small and husband has a tendency to stand right where I need to be at any given moment 🙃

I’ve had many kitchen related jobs in the past and never had issues sharing the kitchen space then, but that’s likely due to the fact that those kitchens were designed for collaboration.

46. What’s the last thing a friend recommended to you that you looked into and actually liked?

Well directly, @claire8216 recommended Daisy Jones and the Six and though I have only just begun reading it, I like it very much!

Indirectly, @pearlcaddy influenced me to finally watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer through all her gif making/sharing and of course her fic Some Killer Queen You Are

Ask me some random questions!

[tangledstarlight]

Happy Fanfic Writers Appreciation Day!

thank you for, well, ff!luke. lol. and 'not actually a' lumberjack!luke. great mental images that i can never be rid of.

honestly all of your stories that i've read have been truly wonderful. the feels. THE FEELS. but for realsies, i know you've been struggling with writers block/motivation but be nice to yourself. have you seen how much you've already shared? phew! you'll get there :)

aww thank you!!! genuinely feeling very emotional over this and i’m nearly crying in the office🥺🥺

[claire8216]

Choose violence 4, 10 and 23 please!

4. What was the last straw that made you finally block that annoying person? To be honest, I take absolutely no issue with blocking people lol. Tumblr is my safe/happy place, and if there's someone or something that's repeatedly showing up that's interfering with that, I don't want it.

But also, if I see someone being rude or offensive, especially towards my friends or myself, you're getting blocked immediately.

10. Worst part of fanon For JatP, anything that justifies Bobby stealing Luke's songs. Blows my mind how people have spun it to where they think it's okay on any level.

Gonna answer for OBX too because why not haha. The idea that Kie and Rafe have a history. It gives me the ick.

23. Ship you've unwillingly come around to Benedict Bridgerton and literally anyone that's not Henry Granville, the artist from S1 😂

I shipped them sooo much (still do) but I've accepted that it's not going to happen, and I'm sure his love story will be great when it's finally his season!

Choosing violence ask game!

Happy Juke Jeudi! I wanted to list a few juke Christmas themed fics for this Juke Jeudi for anyone that might be interested. I got a little help from @missjoolee and @preoccupied-educator. I’ve read most of these but not all. The following are listed in word count/size order, shortest to longest.

Peppermint and Chocolate   by  sanssssastark  rated T

He’s wanted to kiss Julie since he was thirteen years old and waiting three years to kiss someone leads to expectations of what that kiss might be like. Turns out, it was way better than every fantasy he ever had. Her lips were soft and warm and her hand clutched at his arm, curling around his bicep and he wished he’d worn a shirt without sleeves because he’d have given anything to feel her touch against his skin. The kiss was everything he imagined it would be.

He just never thought it would leave him this confused.

Christmas lodge by darylvdixon not rated but it’s G

Julie and Luke meet when both their families book to spend Christmas in a lodge on the mountains. It's love at first sight and they spend the whole of their holidays together.

Let Your Heart Be Light by MamiRugbee rated T

With Christmas approaching, Julie decides she wants to pay a visit to Emily Patterson. Unfortunately, Luke realizes things aren’t exactly how he remembers them.

call me babe for the weekend by blushandbooks rated M (and locked for ao3 members)

Julie Molina, Grammy-winning popstar and reluctant Seattle native, returns home to her family and old friends for Christmas - and also to escape rumors and drama back in Los Angeles.

Old friends include Luke Patterson: The ex-boyfriend she left behind for LA and the promise of a blossoming music career. Only, the music career is not what she wanted it to be, and Los Angeles has turned from a welcome escape to an unlikely prison, and the only place she wants to run to is the place (and the person) that knows her best.

At the end of the day, she'll just run back to LA and forget about Seattle all over again.

But the city, and Luke, have more of a grip on her than she expected.

Blame It On the Mistletoe by Courty rated T

In the two years since they met, Julie and Luke have been dancing around the connection between them, both too afraid they'll ruin the other's life they've worked so hard to build.

Good thing they have some friends who decide a little Christmas magic is in order.

 

all i want for christmas is you by ruzekhalstead rated T

when julie finds herself in a situation where she needs luke to come home with her to celebrate christmas with her family, he is more than happy to oblige. too bad julie's already in love with him, and not sure when she stopped pretending.

holiday au

"the entire family is getting together for christmas and she just assumed i was bringing my boyfriend and then when i tried to explain, she mentioned you by name and i just kind of blanked and basically, my whole family thinks you're my boyfriend and you're coming to spend christmas with me."

"cool. when do we leave?"

 

Ladder to the Stars: A Juke Christmas Story by SeaStarStories rated T

Julie books a quiet winter retreat, but a typo has her turning up at the wrong cabin. Then a major snowstorm forces her to stay with Luke, whether she likes it or not. The problem is she likes it.

 

'Tis the Damn Season (hear me out) by IMaketheMonsters rated M

There’s nothing like coming home the week of Christmas and discovering you’re still in love with a worm-eater.

OR: the Home for the Holidays!AU that no one asked for

those cold December nights by Labyrinthinee rated M

Sure, Luke's life hadn’t turned out exactly how he wanted it to.

If anybody had told his eighteen-year-old self, that ten years down the road, he’d spent a Friday evening at his friend’s home, not on stage at some shady club, rocking his heart out, Luke would’ve never believed them. But, he couldn’t say that he was unhappy. He had a good job, amazing friends and was invited to dinner at his parents’ place once a week. So, to be frank, he wouldn’t change a thing.

Of course, that's when Julie Molina stumbled back into his life.

 

the lucky one (i think it might be you) by itsagamefortwo rated T

“So you know who I am then,” it’s not really a question but Luke shrugs anyway, turning to glance at her quickly before looking back at the road.

“And you know who I am,” he pauses so long Julie thinks that’s all he’ll say on the matter but then he speaks again, and she can just make out the hints of a smile through the shadows on his face, “Reggie posts a lot on instagram stories. You’re in a lot of them.”

“I recognised your hat. From your christmas card,” she offers and feels her own lips pulling into a smile at his bark of laughter.   aka julie needs to get the hell out of la for a few days and finds herself in a small town with a familiar face just as a snow storm rolls in.

 

While You Were Sleeping by ICanSpellConfusionWithAK rated T

AU of the romcom While You Were Sleeping.

Julie doesn't have a lot going for her other than her fantasies about Nick, the cute guy she sees at work and her dreams of marrying him one day. When she saves his life only for him to end up in a coma with his family thinking she's actually his fiancee things get really complicated really fast. They get even more complicated once she meets his brother Luke and the two start to fall for each other. Julie just needs to wait for Nick to wake up and get back to her normal life only things are never that simple. It's time for Julie to decide what...and who...she really wants.

 

Merry Ex-Mas by Bluefire510 rated T

The one thing Julie Molina hates more than Christmas is Luke Patterson, her former boyfriend and current pain in the ass.

But when her little brother and his best friend embark on a journey to the North Pole for Operation: Save Santa, she's forced to team up with her ex to wrangle them back home in time for Christmas.

It goes as well as expected...

Inspired by the book 'Ex-Mas' written by Kate Brian.

37 for the 100 dialogue prompt list?

I let these sit too long and then I lost the original post🤦🏻‍♀️ big, BIG thank you to @missjoolee for finding it for me so I could continue these 🥹

I spent way too long thinking about who said the prompt dialogue and then it became obvious really quickly and I have no idea where the rest came from… But I hope you like it!!!

~

“I demand cuddles.”

“I’m sorry…you demand cuddles?”

They’d been sitting in the studio writing for probably way too long. Julie was hunched over her notebook, back aching more than she’d like to admit. Not to mention, her eyes felt so heavy after a long day of classes and staring at her scribbles and Luke’s was not helping. They’d been writing in a cohesive silence, strangely not needing to communicate through words to know what the song needed. So when Luke broke it with his statement, she couldn’t tell if she should laugh or not.

“You heard me, Jules.” The boy in question had already placed his guitar off to the side, and for someone who had just as many classes as she did that day, he looked incredibly alert. But that was Luke for you, always bouncing with energy.

She usually found it adorable, but in her exhausted state, Julie currently thought it was just a little annoying. “We just need to finish this chorus and then we can… do whatever you want,” she said turning back to her notebook.

“Nope, we’re cuddling now.”

Before Julie could blink, the notebook in her lap was placed on the coffee table and an arm wrapped around her waist to pull her into his lap.

Luke kept one arm firmly around her waist, tugging her until her head rested on his chest before his other hand reached up to play with her curls.

Julie wouldn’t consider herself a mushy kind of girl—though she knew Carlos would disagree—but as she listened to Luke’s heart beat in one ear with his arms around her, she felt herself literally melt into his embrace. All the irritability and exhaustion drained from her, replaced with comfort and a little sleepiness, if the contented sigh she let out was any indication.

“Knew you just needed a good cuddle,” Luke murmured with a smirk against her temple.

She would roll her eyes if she wasn’t already so comfy. “Are you trying to say your cuddles are magical or something?”

His smirk widened into a full blown grin. “You said it, not me.”

“You’re the one who demanded cuddles.”

“Because I knew you’d never ask until we finished writing and by then I’d have to drag you out of here.” His arms tightened around her. “You gotta take care of yourself too, Jules. Not just us three idiots.”

“Alex isn’t an idiot all the time.”

“Hey!”
