La La Land 🎞️

CHAPTER 1 (Remus Lupin x fem!oc)

content warnings: industry pressure, burnout, self-doubt, mental exhaustion, career struggles, substance use (drinking and hella smoking), anxiety, unhealthy habits. The weather was dreadful.

a/n: just a lady with micro bangs

"I don't know, Marlenne," the brown-haired woman sighed, lighting her second cigarette of the day with shaky fingers. She flicked the lighter closed, its metallic click sharp in the silence of the room. "The entire crew is going mad! The production company is breathing down my neck about the new script, and no actor wants to work with me. No wonder, though—I can barely pay ten pounds an hour!"

"Blair, I'm so sorry things are going south..."

Blair exhaled a cloud of smoke, staring at the crumpled coffee cup on her desk. It was still half-full, but she hadn’t touched it since the morning. She appreciated Marlenne's attempts to comfort her, but after so many reassuring words, a part of her wondered if she was truly cut out for this industry.

"Marlenne," she sighed again, her voice quieter now, "I love you, but can we continue this another time? I have class in half an hour, and my car broke down this morning."

"...You're taking the tube?”

Blair didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she set her phone down on the table with an audible thunk, her delicate wrist brushing the edge of the chair. Twisting her hair into a messy bun, she left her bangs to frame her gaunt face, the angles of her cheekbones more pronounced than she remembered.

"Yikes," Marlenne muttered on the other end before the line went silent.

[◉"]

Blair stared blankly at the page in front of her, her textbook open to a discussion on color theory.

"…Directors and cinematographers use color palettes intentionally, employing techniques like color grading to enhance visuals. For example, vibrant hues might represent fantasy or optimism, while desaturated colors evoke realism or bleakness…"

She sighed and ran her hand through her hair, her bracelet sliding loosely down her wrist. The paper felt impossible, and her stomach churned slightly—not with hunger, but from the coffee she’d been sipping since morning. Tossing her pen aside, she stepped onto her small balcony, cigarette already in hand. The chill of the evening air seeped through her thin shirt, brushing against her skin like a reminder of how much the temperature had dropped.

Suddenly, her apartment door slammed open.

"Hey! We're leaving in ten—what the fuck?!"

Blair turned her head lazily to look at Marlenne, who stood wide-eyed in the doorway. "What?" she muttered, blowing out another puff of smoke.

Marlenne waved the air in front of her face dramatically, coughing for effect. "How many of those have you had today, Blair? Jesus. The balcony’s practically a chimney."

Blair rolled her eyes, tapping the ash off her cigarette. "Second one," she said flatly.

Marlenne raised a skeptical brow. "Second one since I got here, maybe."

Blair ignored the comment, blowing another stream of smoke into the cool air.

"What do you mean, 'what'?" Marlenne mocked her tone with exaggerated indignation. "I told you I’d take you to meet some people!"

Blair’s posture stiffened. "What?! No, Marlenne! I can't! I need to finish this assignment, get Minnie’s project done, and get my shit together before the prod company meeting—"

Before Blair could protest further, they were both tearing through her closet, pulling out clothes at a frantic pace. Blair found herself frowning at a pair of jeans Marlenne tossed aside—ones that used to fit better than they did now. Eventually, they settled on a backless top paired with dark-wash jeans. Marlenne handed her favorite Mary Janes with a smirk.

"For luck," Marlenne said with a wink.

Blair muttered something inaudible but allowed herself to be swept into the bathroom. Marlenne expertly fixed her disheveled hair, applying quick but flawless makeup.

"Who even are these people?" Blair asked, watching her friend in the mirror.

Marlenne froze mid-swipe with her mascara wand, giving her a blank stare. "Did you even listen to me earlier?"

Blair blinked and offered a sheepish smile. "No..."

Marlenne rolled her eyes. "You’ll thank me later."

[◉"]

"So... what's this nutter plan of yours again?"

"You know the guy I told you about from my childhood?" Blair glanced sideways at Marlenne, her expression curious.

"Jace?"

Marlenne rolled her eyes dramatically, flicking her hair over her shoulder. "James. It's James, not Jace, okay? Anyway, I saw him recently in a coffee shop, of all places. You know how I am, right? I can’t keep my mouth shut for more than five minutes, and of course, he’s the same way. We started talking, and I couldn’t stop asking about what he's been up to. And it turns out, he’s been working with some people who would actually be really honoured to work with you."

"Yes, honored. They saw your Dreamer thing—"

"The Dreamers? No one saw that!" Blair laughed, incredulous.

"Hey! Four thousand views on YouTube is not ‘no one,’ alright?" Marlenne shot back, half-laughing herself as they rounded a corner and neared the entrance to Seb's place. "You have no idea how many people in this industry would kill for that kind of exposure. Four thousand’s a decent start."

Blair shifted her weight, still unsure, but Marlenne didn’t seem to notice as she pressed on. "Anyway, Lily and Sirius—remember them from the old neighborhood? My other childhood friends—are both desperate to get into the industry. They’d do anything to break in. I’m telling you, they're perfect for this. And listen, I know how much you value your creative freedom, but there’s this other guy, Remus. He’s an amazing writer, seriously.” 

Blair rubbed her chin thoughtfully. "And James?"

"Well, James, yeah. He said he can help with... whatever you need, really. He’s got connections, knows a few people. He can open doors for you, if you give him the chance."

Blair stopped for a moment, looking hesitant. She didn’t like the sound of it—something felt off, but Marlenne’s enthusiasm was contagious.

"Look," Marlenne continued, her voice a little softer, trying to reassure her, "he’s just a rich kid who doesn’t want to live off his dad’s money, alright? He wants to prove he can do something on his own. He can help finance some of your stuff. You need someone with a little money to throw around if you’re serious about getting into the industry, and he’s a good guy, Blair. Just... trust me on this."

Blair stared at her for a moment, eyes narrowing, before letting out a sigh. She didn’t like depending on anyone, especially not someone she barely knew anymore. But Marlenne had a way of making things sound so simple, even when they weren’t.

"Alright," Blair muttered, pulling her jacket tighter around her, "I’ll think about it."

"Good!" Marlenne grinned, proud of her persuasive skills. "And trust me, you won’t regret it."

[◉"]

“And all of that is going to be… a musical?”

Remus was stunned, to say the least. His eyebrows furrowed, and he leaned forward slightly, as if trying to understand what had just come out of Blair’s mouth.

Blair didn’t notice his shock at first. She was busy chatting with the bartender, her usual easy smile on her face as he served her another drink.The rest of the group at the table was in full celebration mode, laughing and talking excitedly about their new project. As Blair had explained what she wanted the movie to be about, they had all eagerly jumped at the chance to work on it, their enthusiasm palpable. But Remus seemed a bit... taken aback.

“Yes… a musical," Blair said, finally turning her attention back to Remus. She tilted her head slightly, a playful glint in her eyes, "Marlenne said Sirius has some decent writing skills, and if we cut some expenses, we can get someone else to work with him. Make the project work, you know?"

Remus nodded slowly, still processing the idea. "What are they called, then?"

Blair’s lips curled into a slight, almost secretive smile. "Huh?"

“Your characters… what are they called?”

Blair looked around the dimly lit pub, her gaze lingering for a moment before it found the bartender, who was adjusting bottles behind the counter. She smiled at him, a brief flicker of familiarity in her eyes, then turned back to Remus. "Oh, um… they’re Mia and,” she hesitated, before adding, “Sebastian."

Remus couldn’t help but let out a short, surprised laugh. Blair's grin only widened, clearly enjoying his reaction.

"Really?" he asked, a little amused. "Sebastian? As in..."

Blair shrugged casually, almost nonchalantly. "Yep, as in my favorite bartender. I thought it had a nice ring to it." Her slender fingers wrapped around her drink with ease, a small movement, but one that caught his attention. Her posture, too, leaned just slightly, as if too comfortable in her own skin.

Remus chuckled again, his eyes lingering on her for a moment before he spoke, charmed but still processing. "I see. So, Mia and Sebastian... sounds like a star-crossed love story, huh?"

Blair let the question linger, her lips curving into something playful but unreadable. "Maybe. Or maybe it’s not what you think at all." She gave him a look that made it hard for him to tell whether she was teasing or just keeping him on edge. She leaned back a bit, the edge of her shirt falling loose at the sides, and Remus couldn’t help but notice how it subtly hugged the lines of her frame.

He gave a little smile, though a part of him felt slightly intrigued by her quiet confidence. "You like keeping people guessing, don’t you?"

Blair didn’t immediately respond, and instead, she took a slow sip from her glass, her eyes meeting his with a calm that only deepened his curiosity. "Maybe I just like to keep things interesting."

There was a long pause. Remus opened his mouth to speak again, but before he could get another word out, Blair was already moving away, slipping through the crowd without another glance.

He stared after her, unsure whether he should follow.

heathers x ii

microphone - veronica

taco - jd

heather chandler - fan

heather duke - test tube

heather mcnamara - lightbulb

kurt - baseball

ram - nickel

martha - suitcase

ms fleming - soap

there's obviously some things that are out of character. for example, nickel and baseball aren't yucky creeps !! i just felt like those two were enough of a duo that also played a mostly antagonist role. soap was gonna be martha, but i feel like she wasn't effected by all the drama enough as suitcase was. just pretend suitcase and microphone were super close best friends. microphone and taco's dynamic is very veronica and jd to me. those two were the first things i thought of for this au and the easiest to think of. fan is definitely out of character as heather chandler but he died due to microphone and taco PLUS he's red so... lightbulb fits heather mcnamara's character very well, putting up a persona, hiding a lot of things inside, plus just her general personality. test tube isn't quite as antagonistic as heather duke is, buuuttt she fits the character quite well! she also disliked microphone for a while and was close to fan + tried to kick out microphone after he died in ep14 which parallels to heather duke.

will probably draw of this in the future! if you draw anything relating to this au i will do a happy jig

character: bill open: f/nb — 24+ only plot: bill is part of the notorious los lobos locos gang; your muse is very much not part of the criminal world, but recently was held hostage by masked men after a bank heist gone wrong. a few weeks later, your muse starts to date a nice man named bill that works in real estate development. unbeknownst to her, her new boyfriend bill was actually one of the men that held her hostage. only dating her to keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn't recognize him or rat on his crew, he might be falling for her for real. ( based on the town ) the only requirement is no jessica henwick fcs, as that’s his sister’s canonical fc, and nothing t*boo. it's up to you if she's completely oblivious or maybe has her suspicions! this post was made using beta editor, please do not reblog it in legacy as i no longer have access to it!

at first there had been a perverse excitement to it. naturally duplicitous, bill often felt duper's delight in his normal life, but there was an extra thrill to his current con. she had no idea that the man that held a gun to her head a month ago was the exact same man that had taken her on three dates so far. it only started because gabriel got paranoid that she'd recognized them and then logan suggested they'd go back and finish the job. so really, in a way, bill was saving her life. of course he found her beautiful when he was holding her at gunpoint, but there was rarely a woman around that bill didn't find beautiful, and by 'saving' her, he was saving himself and the lobos. it wasn't the worst way to spend his nights, so he didn't mind sticking around just to figure out what she knew and who she was going to tell. that night, on their fourth date, he had taken her to a piano bar that was on the other side of the city. taking a sip of his whiskey, he set the glass back on the table and leaned back in the booth, "so how are you feeling? are you still have nightmares about the heist?" bill asked, desperate to ask her if she had seen or suddenly remembered the wolf tattoos that decorated the masked men's necks—the same one that was inked onto bill's, sitting just beneath the collar.

Freddy - 25 Bonnie - 26

Foxy - 27 Chica - 24

More about my AU

The four of them have been childhood friends since the 1980's but have grown apart for sometime around their teenage years, Freddy went to be a song writer and comedian, Bonnie went to engineering school and helped raise her younger brother (Monty), Chica was a baker for a while until passing it on to a friend, And Foxy was in the navy until he retired

All four of them find themselves at their childhood hang out place and ended up working there together, Their boss Mr. Afton was quite fond of his employees pleased by how good they were at their jobs (he's a pretty mysterious guy) and gave them a better opportunity at being the main entertainment in wearing the spring locked animatronic suits

William afton had his employees work their two separate jobs which was what they were good at, and being the people to wear the spring lock suits to entertain for shows they didn't mind it at all besides they were happy to still work with their passions

Mike is just a security guard working at nights often usually one of gang try to bring him into the friend group (mostly bonnie since she's the most gentle and motherly type) but he wasn't having it, usually he just wants to get paid to support his sisters education and to put food on the table, Mike is a bit of a tired guy but he's just trying to make sure he's doing his job and maybe have himself lose an additude or two

When Mike starts warming up to the gang he trusts one of them to babysit Abby in which they agree on, Bonnie and Chica sometimes likes to do make overs with abby or paint each others nails together, Abby always likes to tell stories about her imaginary friends and the adventures she has with them, Bonnie thinks it's cute, Chica is trying to follow along with it but likes it too

Abby can be a little off track for Freddy and Foxy but at least they try to entertain her by making pretend plays or Foxy telling stories about how he lost his arm, the arm part kinda confuses Abby a bit the first thing when they first met was "what happened to your arm?", Foxy at first was insecure about it but confident to share his navy stories with her (and on the side note since he retired he decided to grow his hair out)

Freddy had a crush on Bonnie since he was doing his song writing he couldn't stop thinking of how pretty she looked and how she acted back then and wondering how she looks now, Foxy wasn't sure on Chica since most of the time all she ever was to him was a kind friend at first figuring how grumpy he can be, but once he noticed her kindness towards him he actually started crushing on her a bit

The fun thing about this Au that I’m working on is that I can probably add in some real-world elements and include some scenes of Finn and his Bianca in it.

It was established in the first movie that Emmet represents Finn's feelings and relationships with people (In their own Lego universe), and I do think that Rex is basically just representing Teenage Finn beginning to think Legos are childish or at least shutting himself off from his family a bit more, since Bianca seems to take control of most of the Lego things that he has made, making her own Syspocalypstar compared to the one she and Finn worked on in the alternate timeline. 

Now because Finn would be around 18 in the original timeline, he would be going to college, so I could make that time Rex is out in space a symbol of the time Finn is spending away from his family, but still making new relationships and finding who he is in the world.

The brand new crew that I’m gonna give to Rex is like representing the new friends that Finn has been making and such, helping him build himself as a person instead of trying to be tough and cool all the time, and embracing his love for legos again (The adventures Rex and his crew go on could be just Finn having fun making Lego stories again with help from his friends) 

Now when I get round to the Watevra and Rex 'reunion', that could be kind of like a reconciliation between Finn and Bianca, after the time he and Rex spent away from home (character development and all) to reconnect with each other, sharing their love for legos (For Rex it’s probably going to be more of a father daughter bonding time), and Finn finally enjoying his childhood toys again with his little sister.

…

God I put way too much thought into this 

This is mostly just a concept, but I think it would be interesting to incorporate some more of the real world along with the Lego world in this Au.

But yeah, those are my thoughts so far, I’m still working out the actual crew, because I really don’t want it to seem like I’m copying from guardians of the galaxy.

I also really should come up with a name for this au, god.
