#not sure how that'd realistically go tho

[bwoahtastic]

Imagine Lion meeting Logie or something. Not sure if it would ever happen, but I could just see Logie being this goofy clone of Logan's who is easily excitable. Lion just being amused at Logie and as he gets to know the American clone, he just gets protective over him too! Maybe because Logie is too excitable, he might annoy the wrong people and Lion is there to protect him from anyone that might be too harsh on the clone!

Lion also gets to meet Logan, who is exasperated by his clone sometimes but loves him all the same. Lion also notices how Oscar seems to be protective over both Logie and Logan. (Dunno how realistic this is, but it was just a thought that came to my head after going through your entire Clone AU tag 🤩)

I think definitely most clones would know each other!

Lion is a little aloof and distant sometimes but Logie doesn't think he is the intimidating and babbles away at him so much lol!

Lion heard a lot about Logie and that he is cute but clueless, maybe Charlie told him cos he was afraid Lion wouldn't understand Logie isn't planning dumb, he is that innocent fir real! But Lion is nothing but patient, letting Logie talk and shows the tattoos while Logie rambles away and he will frown if people sigh at Logie! That'd his new mini me! (Not as mini as Maxy tho)

Lion also seeing Oscar is very close to both logans and he will definitely give them a push in the right direction lol

Tell us everything you feel about Ascians and Shadowbringers, do! You only get to do this for the first time once after all, and we're all dying to know what you think is going on, what you are pretty sure is going on, what you are positive is NOT going on and every speculation and heart palpitation you got so we can all bask in the confusion and hand flapping by proxy.

Sorry about the late reply, this week has been A Week!

I was kinda waiting until I was a bit closer to the end of 5.0 before doing this, but it sounds fun and I think it's funnier if I do this now and then I keep updating all the things I was wrong about as I get closer and closer to the reveals!

So! I am currently on quest Return to Eulmore, 24 quests left to reach the end of Patch 5.0, and those are my opinions and feels about... stuff!

Spoiler-filled text dump incoming!

Ascians Ascians are cool! :D I'm a sucker for immortals of any kind, I do like their possession gimmick, I like that they're way too intense no matter what they're saying. I don't particularly sympathize with their revealed backstory so far, and I'm glad the game brought up the whole "Cool motive, still murder" aspect of it. And that's just assuming I actually trust Emet-Selch, which would be a stretch.

An Emet-Stretch.

Please laugh.

2. Shadowbringers

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I am really enjoying this expansion. I don't think it's a surprise to anyone at this point that I greatly enjoy drama and emotional pain, and this expansion is giving a lot of both in a very realistic way. I like the WoL's dialogue prompts getting angrier and snarkier as they get fed up with everything, I like people getting tired of all the secret-keeping and the moral ambiguity (Great for a plot, bad for a team), I like how hot Urianger is now, I love Alisaie having a well deserved turn on the spotlight, I like how hot Urianger is now, I like the whole "Ardbert and the WoL are friends now thanks to their mutual existential crisis" arc, I freaking love that Thancred is a dad now, and HAVE YOU SEEN URIANGER THIS EXPANSION??

3. Random speculation and thoughts!

I would like to punch Emet-Selch on the face. Amazing voice actor tho.

The whole absorbing-light-thingie is clearly bad. I would love to have something like an inner soul battle or something to destroy your corruption. Very Kingdom Hearts.

I... don't know what to think about the whole "Vauthry controls Sin Eaters" thing, but the way this expansion is going I fully expect to get into Eulmore and discover he has a disgusting one chained in a dungeon or something. Either that or Eulmore itself is a sin eater somehow. That'd be cool.

I don't trust the Crystal Exarch. At all. I would also like to punch him on the face, once I'm done with Emet-Selch. Which, admittedly, will take a while. This game has taught me that people with hoods and/or any way to cover their face are evil. Privacy bad.

Hydaelyn being a Primal makes So. Much. Sense. I was suspecting something was afoot since I realized every other deity and figure of legend was just a primal, but somehow I never made the connection.

Does that make the Echo just a very polite way of tempering?? Are the random flashbacks actually a "Go do my will" tactic instead of just a convenient plot artifact??

Someday I'll get Titania's theme out of my head.

It isn't gonna be today.

Help.

20 Questions for Fic Writers

Tagged by da bestie @a-problematic-writer for this !!!!!

How many works do you have on ao3?

There's 14 atm!!!

What's your total AO3 word count?

Sitting at 569,356 rn :] thank u Answers LMAO 😭

What fandoms do you write for?

MCSM, Sonic, Kingdom Hearts, and anything that catches my fancy and eye in the meantime! Basically whatever! Also got some FF and Danganronpa peeking in :]

What are your top five fics by kudos?

Answers, Would You Like To Dance, MCSM Prompts/Drabbles, Demyx Drabbles oop-- 😳, Sonic and the Black Knight? More likeSonic and a Lot of Trauma

Do you respond to comments?

Yes all the time and all of them!!! I love interacting with readers and having conversations!!!

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Probably the SatBK one LMAO sorry my beloved. Maybe I LIED HOW COULD I FORGET. ALVI. IT'S THIS ONE.

What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Im honestly not sure??? They all, despite having their angst, tend to end on some hopeful notes or some kinda resolution 🤔it's also kinda hard to judge tho bc a lot are just drabbles and little thought experiments for me :]

Do you get hate on fics?

I've had the pleasure of not yet encountering any!

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Not my thing! I can barely write two characters holding hands without feeling like a whore LMFAOOOOO

Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

Not typically where I specialize!

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of 😭👍

What's the longest you've spent working on one fic? And the shortest?

ANSWERS. MY GOD. I've been working on Answers since December of 2018 and she's still going and gonna be 5 years old soon which is CRAZYYYYYY 😭😭😭 That said, I wouldn't have it any other way and I'm still very excited for it and the future of it as I'm FINALLY getting into some of the meat of it that's been on the docket since 2018 :]

As for shortest, I'm pretty capable of getting a fairly long drabble out in just a few hours, so that'd probably be the shortest time I have.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Not on Ao3!

What's your all-time favorite ship? From all fandoms?

I can't easily pick one but I do feel like Sonic and Shadow's dynamic has like. rewired my brain LMAO

What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

the Demyx Drabbles mentioned earlier. Mainly because they were a set of character explorations and a lot of my own ideas and thoughts have changed pretty drastically from when I started writing those, so I've lost the idea spark on that line of thinking. Im still COMPLETELY unwell about that little weirdo, but in a different flavor now

What are your writing strengths?

Character relationships, motives, and dialogue and maybe a bit of ilke??? Atmosphere????? I do my best to write it well at the very least!

What are your writing weaknesses?

Action sequences are always a fucking bitch bro 😭 same with like physical descriptions and scenery--I don't know if it comes across like that but I always put in extra effort and time to refine these aspects before putting something out because I want them to be the best I can make them at the time 👍

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I'm open to it but personally would like to have a little familiarity with the language and its nuances myself before attempting too much lest I fall into the trap of like. Google translate ruining shit 😭

First fandom you wrote for?

Sonic!

Favorite fic you've written?

Answers is VERY much my pride and joy rn :] to me it's more than just an MCSM fic/continuation, it is 100% a love letter to MC as a whole which was just huge to me growing up. I've completely thrown myself into all corners of it's world and lore as well as throw in fun little references from things I loved over the years and done my best to stir them all together in a way that feels naturally cohesive, fun, and semi-realistic in a way that doesn't like snap a reader out of their suspension of disbelief! I want it to be engaging and natural and overall just a fun experience :] 💖

I can't think of anyone to tag rn (brain so so empty) so if anyone wants to take a stab at this go ahead!!! :]

Step by Step ค่อย ๆ รัก Ep 7

I'm finally catching up with this. Have managed to avoid all and any spoilers so far, this should be interesting!

Ae and Kanoom bickering like that? FIRE. Pat telling Ae but not Jaab? That's gonna go wrong.

oh Jaab, that's not Jeng's purse and now he's gonna KNOW

Jeng figuring things out – I thought he was about to burst into tears right there and then

if someone disrespected the food I made for them like Put is currently disrespecting the noodles Pat made that'd be the last dish I cooked for them (also probably the end any close relationship)

SO MUCH FOOD WASTE help

the shark thing was cute the first time but it's starting to look like Put just … can't apologise as himself? and that's not a good look at all

what is this lady's role. how does she just get to waltz onto set and make a fuss. her kid's one of the actors? great, shall we get Put's parents in to battle her?? URGH "they've got you standing in the sun" well right now it's YOU who's got everyone standing around listening to your tantrum, stfu, maam

Jeng ILU but let the man cry in peace

product placement! I'd nearly forgotten about you

I love how Jeng just … casually puts Ms Maan (I HATE that romanisation ffs in what world does that not read /maːn/) in her place. Makes it sound like he isn't even aware he's doing it. effortless. 10/10.

Jaab has no qualms about making her feel bad about it tho and I also respect that.

aaand Jeng going in for the kill I LOVE IT HERE god I want him to give me "dealing with clients" lessons (I know it's like … 99% "be someone the other person knows is more influential than they are and make them afraid you'll use it against them" but the other, possibly attainable 1%? I want that.)

… this Jeng vs Put standoff is so uncomfortable, yikes. I realise it's meant to be but oooof.

I know real people do this and this show is by far not the first or the only contender, but outside clothes on the bed make me so uncomfortable, this is TOS Kirk with his boots on the bed all over again

unironically love how neither of them directly answered the "do you like me" questions.

was that an Up Poompat song they sang?? I didn't even know Up sang but his name was there on the karaoke machine, so …??

Jen is going through some stuff, huh

asdfasdf not the Lovely Writer theme?!

this drunk flirting sure is a thing that's happening, huh

have I mentioned how much I love Chot yet this round? no? I LOVE CHOT.

I did not expect that of Jaab and I'm impressed

oh, this preview … whoa

I really appreciate how this show doesn't shower us in unnecessary drama for the sake of drama – the conflicts seem realistic and I'm HERE for it.

(requested by mathmaticalknight; continuing from this) Ceobe walks around Dusk’s paintings freely

“Saga!” Ceobe ran through the halls, following her scent. “Sagaaaaa! Where did you go?!”

The Doctor, who’d enlisted Angelina’s help to keep up with her, was still struggling to do just that and apologize for her as they went. “I’m sorry to get you wrapped into this, Angie.”

“Oh, it’s fine! It means I’m getting my steps in now instead of having to do it later.” Besides, special memories like this with the Doctor-

“Saga!” The Perro skidded to a halt in front of a painting…One of Dusk’s paintings. “Uh…Doctor, this isn’t Saga.”

Her pursuers settled back to the ground next to the Caster, the Vulpo also perplexed, until the Doctor explained, “It’s one of Dusk’s paintings.”

“Will she be alright in there?” Angie asked. She’d only heard rumors of the painter’s works.

“She spent a long time in them before coming to us,” he replied, “so I’m sure she’ll-”

Ceobe leapt into the painting.

The Doctor, stopped mid-sentence, looked at the Perro-shaped puff of smoke as it rapidly dissipated. “-Shit. We should probably go find Dusk.”

“Probably, yeah.”

Of course, that wasn’t the doggo’s problem. No, her single solitary issue was finding her snuggle-buddy and getting her back to Rhodes Island, no matter how long she spent wandering in this strange jungle she’d found herself in. Fortunately, while her sense of smell wasn’t quite as refined as Projekt Red’s, she could still track decently well, and Saga’s scent was unmistakable to her.

“Saga!” She called into the pulsing forest around her. “Saaaaagaaaaaa!...Maybe I should be loud-”

The monk emerged from a bush seemingly at random. “Kay? For what purpose hast thou-?!”

“Saga.” It was all she needed to say as Ceobe glued herself to the other Perro, content that she’d been located.

“How hast thou arrived in Dusk’s domain?” Saga ran a hand through her girlfriend’s hair, confused but more concerned about the doggo’s agitated state. “I’ve seen nary another able to so easily step across the threshold…”

The Caster shrugged. “I followed your smell inside.”

“Oh? How intriguing. Since thou hast joined me in this realm of canvas and color, dost thou wish to feast on the fruits of this land?”

“Fruit?” Kay pulled back a little to look at her. “There’s food here?”

The Vanguard nodded. “A veritable bounty! Come, I shall bless thine taste buds with the wonders of this world. I’m sure thou shalt be most pleased with what’s to be had here.”

And indeed, the doggo was quite impressed with the variety available, and the portions! It was almost endless! A village ramen shop that never seemed to run out of noodles? A fishball stand with all the fish ever? A bakery and butcher with the stuff to make absolutely inscrutable massive sandwiches? It was fantastic, to the point Ceobe might have wanted to stay forever, but she did want to check on Vulcan before going to sleep, so she led the monk back to the entrance she’d come through and arrived to-

-to a gathering of people surrounding the painting: Dusk, the Doctor, Angelina, and Amiya, seemingly deep in conversation up to the point the pair arrived. “Ceobe! Welcome back.”

“Dost thou require something from us, Doctor?” She asked, to Angie’s bewilderment until she realized Saga was there too.

“Um, no, we just wanted to make sure you were alright.” He glanced at Dusk. “I guess since you found Saga, you made it out alright.”

The monk shook her head. “Nay, Doctor, ‘twas I most grateful for Kay’s retrieval! She led me out of the jungle after our meal; but for her guidance, I might have strived in vain to find my entrance point.”

“How did you get in?” The painter of that canvas world asked.

“I followed Saga’s scent.” Dusk just stared. “The forest smelled like her, I walked into the forest, and I brought her out.”

A moment of silence before Angelina said, “You know it’s a painting of a forest, right?”

“Saga walks through paintings all the time!” Ceobe hugged the monk as if to emphasize this. Probably just because she liked to.

“...Right.” The Doctor turned to Saga. “Sorry for crowding. We were just…worried, but more than that, confused by all this.”

The Vanguard nodded. “Thou art blameless in this matter, Doctor. Unless thou hast any other questions, Kay and I best attend to our other business.”

“Of course; go on right ahead.”

“Thank ye.” The monk squeezed the doggo’s hand, and as they left, she called down the hall, “Lady Vulcan! Hast thou a moment?”

Amiya, who’d watched this all unfold somewhat blankly, giggled with a hand over her mouth. “They seem to have taken care of themselves, Doctor.”

“That’s…a way to put it. Well, since that’s taken care of, and you’re out of your room, Dusk, I do have some other-” At which point, Dusk jumped into the painting next to them.

“Ah.” The Vulpo giggled as well. “Well, Doctor, you could always go after her.”

He considered it. “...No, it’s fine. I’ll find her when she’s not running from me.”

“Good luck~” The courier patted him on the back before going about her business.

“Yes, best of luck, Doctor.” Amiya checked her watch. “I have a training session with Ch’en, but I’ll see you later.”

He flashed her a thumbs-up, waiting for her to leave as he stared at the painting. Dusk was actually visible, a frozen frame of her further down the path, leaving the scene. The Doctor took a few steps back and charged the painting.

The next thing he remembered was waking up in Medical with an ice pack on his head.

Hey so you know like the whole paper mache thing with Loser? What do you think was up with that? (Both you and Nate can answer this I think) It's intriguing to say the least. (P.S. I couldn't decide whether to send this to this blog or the GKT blog What do you think is the best place to send these?)

Its better to send these to the blog so we can both have access to asks! Its fine tho I can always reblog things onto there. Plus sometimes I cant tell If smth is goikytown related or just normal headcanons/ideas abt the show

But to answer you

We both thought that this means that she got bullied in some way, that made the most sense. Now in the AU this means he got bullied in school when he was still going there for a few reasons such as not always having the newest clothes on hand (he's from a huge family, they arent exactly rich & theyre hand me downs), her "weird" interest in music, long hair and bein "too tall" and therefore adding to how odd she looks etc- Which might seem rly stupid but kids will bully you for anything trust me I would know -__- Plus this was like what, the 60s/70s? People didnt exactly care If you got bullied, at least thats what I heard from some of my teachers. I mean It still holds up

With the paper machee incident in particular If youre asking how that happened, in the show you can hear her whimpering so shes def In There... Not sure how that'd work. Alternatively If you want a more realistic approach you can imagine It just looks like him, maybe they made self portraits in class. Who knows

But Im glad you asked anon, this is the perfect excuse to talk a bit about Loser's childhood

[msookyspooky]

*Spoilers for Chapter 10 ahead.*

Just wanted to say Sequels Suck is a MASTERPIECE. I love how this story started as a slow burn since it allowed us to bond with the other characters and show Y/ns and Randy's rocky friendship. Slow burns are great for building characterization and slowly building the tension until the climax.

Imma be honest lmao I've been wary asf of Derek since the get go even before we as a character were sus of him in the story lol I think you said in an ask there COULD be a third ghostface and if he were to be it I'd LOSE MY SHIT. This isn't canon, so anything is possible and I'm scared 😭 I actually think realistically IF there is a third that'd it'd be Mickey since Derek literally rushed into the house to beat Billy's ass even tho he LITERALLY COULD HAVE DIED. Gotta give him credit, the man's got balls lmaooo an ingenuine person wouldn't have went that far for us.

Stu in chapter 10 didn't really have me sad, he just pissed me off with that mocking ass attitude 🙄 likeee he's acting like our betrayal didn't hurt us too. Didn't wanna hear a word we said and literally told us we might as well be dead. Ngl that hurt 😥 he's become so cruel to us and when we started crying in front of him I was like noooo bitch, he don't deserve your tears 🤐 not after what he did to you. The son of a bitch is even pretending his name is James 🤢 GOT US THROWING UP IN A BUSH.

I can't imagine them forgiving us ever lmao I find it sooo hard to believe this is gonna result in anything good for us bc the situation is THAT BAD. Stu refuses to ever protect us again and altho he's definitely more forgiving, it's obvious all bets are off. If Randy dies there's nooo doubt we will never forgive them bc Randy is our best friend and we care so much about him. It'll destroy us and Dewey dying will do the same thing. Move on, sure, but forgiving them? That's different. We better drag their asses in the future bc fuck them 😭 acting like we didn't save Billy's ungrateful ass and as if THEY DIDN'T LIE TO US TOO.

Now I just wanna pretend I moved on with our boys Randy and Derek just to make them jelly lmao taunt the fuck outta Billy for not catching us in platform sandals. IM READY TO DRAG THEM. We kinda dragged them lowkey in ch 10 BUT I WANT MORE 😤 Stu must have figured we'd survive the attack cause he litterally told us if we drop out someone's dying early and we can't drop out of college if we're dead. Must have figured if we survived that we'd run for the hills. Either way, I'm scared for everyone and I'm not ready to see us crumble 🙃😭

I SCREAMED AT THIS OMFGGFGJJSC I LOVE THOROUGH REVIEWS LIKE THIS AND SEEING YOU EXCITED FOR THE SERIES HAS ME FREAKIN EXCITED TO WRITE IT!!!!! 😭😭😭🖤🖤🖤🖤

Yep, Stu is a self absorbed 'You hurt me and that's the only issue bc what about me???' (hot) jackass and Billy is a self righteous 'my way is the only way' (sexy) dickwad. It's their piss poor luck I write YN to be as realistic as I can and that means eventually dragging them across the mud like most of us would.

I was THIS close to writing this exactly like YN taking Sid's place and being there for two years but I thought 'No, that's why Scream 2 didn't feel nearly as authentic as Scream 1 bc we jumped straight into killings when at least Scream 1 had the fountain, Sid at Tatum's, the grocery store, the party that lasted a decent amount of time BEFORE the killings etc to show their friendships and interactions with each other. I was scared I was making YN unrealistic with being close to ppl she's just met but after two years of isolation; I think most of us would be hopeful with starting friendships again especially at college.

Yeeeaaaahhhhhh....The deaths are gonna suck. Big time. I can't say how but this is gonna work out in a really fucked up way by the end. 🥲💔 Especially since I'm taking this all the way to Scream 4 and maybe Scream 5 (Unless it turns out Stu is the killer in Scream 5 or something then either I'll end it at 4 or go completely AU for 5 bc what the hell can I do with that without YN being killed or killing Stu? 😭.)

My lips are sealed but this is a roller coaster and I don't even know who dies yet; just the ending 🥴🥴🥴

[chitsangenthusiast]

1 + 15 :)

1: Is writing cathartic or stressful for you? (lmfao) both, for sure. the hard part comes when i inevitably try to set deadlines which never ends up working for my creative process, or when i sink too far in making scenes work the way i want them to

BUT man that excitement when i come up with an idea and rush to write it down bc it makes me so happy? unparalleled joy lol

15: Which fic that you’ve written relates to you and your personal life the most? mallrat was created from my love-hate relationship with working retail, while i was still working retail lmfao it was actually going to be a socmed fic bc i thought that'd be fun, tho that was before i realized socmed fics don't work well on tumblr

(au's are also my form of stress relief lol)

a grieving identity piece being written in mooncusser wip is also smth i relate to, and i think that may actually be the only fic/wip that has any emotional ties? which is funny bc i try to write dialogue based off how i would say the lines in hopes that it sounds more realistic lol

writing ask game!

Ali & Ro

Ali: Soooooo Ali: How'd your date go? Ro: I'm not sure who you meant to send this too, but perhaps try again? Ro: You can't mean me Ali: Coy, that's how you're playing it, I see Ali: Solid choice 😉 Ali: You and Drew musta been agonising over coffee options then Ro: What are you talking about, Ali? Ro: It was just a coffee stop for everyone, rehearsal fuel Ro: You know full well I've never been on a date Ali: I know full well that was just a ploy for some alone time with you Ali: and not yet but it is so clearly on the cards! Ali: I'd start dropping hints now, otherwise who knows where you'll end up Ro: Don't be ridiculous? Drew isn't remotely interested in me like that Ro: Why would he be? He has his pick of girls at school, and beyond the gates, too I'm sure Ali: Because you're you and he should be so lucky Ali: A bombshell with brains to boot Ali: Yeah, he's got a rep but he's being uncharacteristically sweet with you so, taking him at face value Ali: Anyway Ali: What do YOU think of him? More importantly Ro: Oh no no, this isn't a transformation story whereby I take off my glasses or get my braces taken off finally and am suddenly considered good enough for the protagonist Ro: Besides, I'm not even smart, just a hard worker Ro: Most importantly, he's always sweet with Meena so it's hardly uncharacteristic Ro: Other than knowing him as her kind older brother and Caleb's friend I really don't, know him that is Ali: Oh hush ignoring the fact that art is always a poor imitation of life and not the other way 'round Ali: He's love interest #1 at best, potential to be more if he sticks to his lines Ali: You're the loveable protagonist, silly Ali: Hmpf, fine. Would you like to know him better then? Ro: Of course, like I said, he's kind and sweet and Caleb's proven himself to be a good judge of character Ro: I just fail to see why he'd be interested in getting to know me, beyond being civil to me for the aforementioned reasons of mutual connections with important people Ro: He's Drew Goldsmith and I'm me Ro: We're incompatible given even the little we are both aware of concerning each other Ali: Well, I dunno about that, I think he's a fool and my evil plan is working 😏😂 Ali: Because he fancies you Ali: Potentially Ali: This stuff can defy usual logic, for better or worse, opposites CAN attract or repel in the case of humans Ali: But he wants to find out, I know this practically for a fact (of course, I haven't asked, don't worry) so its up to you to decide if you do too Ro: I have no idea what you believe you possess in terms of knowledge about his attractions or intentions but I highly doubt you're right in so far as him fancying me Ro: Sorry to say Ro: He may look like Connla of the Golden Hair but I am by no means a fairy maiden Ro: If only I could be noble born, never grow old or indeed never die Ali: Have you forgotten what happened to the last person to question my omniscience, sister? 🤔🍄💀😉 Ali: And have you also forgotten who and what you are, 'just because they told us too Ali: Cannot believe what I'm hearing here, I refuse to! Ro: of course I haven't Ro: but perhaps I should try and grow up, or at least be more realistic, when it comes to this Ali: Never! We do live in those green and pleasant hills after-all Ali: Won't stroke his ego as hard as to say UNLIMITED pleasures await but Ali: Everyone is positively like a silly child when it comes to love Ro: It isn't love though and therein lies the issue Ro: Simply a silly crush on my part and polite interest on his Ali: It rarely is at first sight Ali: and there's nothing polite about how keen he is Ali: See where it takes you, that's all Ali: he's clearly going to be hanging 'round jam seshs' and the like as long as you're about so whatever it will be, its inevitable Ro: I thought it would be, the whole charade of fireworks when our eyes collide and butterflies in my stomach. Everything clear and definite Ro: I'm afraid of whatever this is Ali: That's just horniness Ali: You just have better restraint than romance novel writers, is all Ali: Its aright to be afraid, its new and unknown Ali: Here be monsters Ro: Well that is comforting, especially if it ensures I won't fall as hard and fast as those heroines do Ro: particularly if I'm destined to do so alone Ro: Okay...but what if the monster is revealed to be me, in his eyes anyway, what if he gets to know me and doesn't like what he discovers Ali: Sure it was the corsets, poor girls could barely breathe, makes swooning all the more likely, those dastardly dandies! Ali: Then he's as bad, and ignorant (and MORE scared of the unknown than you feel right now), as every explorer who wrote natives off as savages Ali: You are far from a monster in every sensible definition Ali: Misunderstanding maketh monsters Ali: So that'd be on him, can't control other's perceptions but he isn't going to think you are, there's just no reason to Ro: I know you're right but Ro: I just suppose I wish I could control something Ali: I know Ali: Well, one thing you can control is your yay or nay to whatever he's offering up Ali: Not suggesting you have to make the first move, or put it all out on the line, 'cos he definitely will Ali: #gentleman Ro: That much is definite Ro: We should call another rehearsal, allow you to guide my vision to where yours currently reside so I'm not blindsided Ro: because I'm just not seeing what he wants with me Ali: Absolutely Ali: I'm really feeling the whole band thing too Ali: Are you enjoying it? Ro: Unexpectedly so, yes Ali: Right? I think everyone is Ali: Its something Ro: I've never played in front of that many people outside of a recital setting, I thought I'd mess up but it wasn't like that at all Ro: And everyone there seemed really into it Ro: Who knew there was so much respective talent surrounding us? Ali: Mess ups are more than welcome but you're flawless Ali: Me me me! 😊 Ali: Toying around with the idea of doing some local performances Ro: Flawless was you and Caleb Ro: I've never heard your voice so complimentary in a duet before, don't tell Marlene Ro: Oh? I think the others would be into that Ali: 💕 Ali: Might get her so raging she'd have to join us to prove you wrong Ali: I know it probably sounds a bit soon but like you said, performances are so different to practice and whatnot Ali: People would vibe Ali: There's all the places I've done solo, they'd be chill, and you know Suggs? Left School this year gone Ali: He's having a big Bday party for his gf and he's asked if I could do something Ro: Terrifying as it'd be to make a possible enemy of her, she's a very good bassist Ro: Very true, and too much practice can make it sound too rehearsed which clearly isn't what you're going for with this Ro: I heard Caleb talking to Drew about potentially performing at the restaurant so he'd be excited for sure Ro: Hm...I'm not certain I know who you mean but a gig's a gig Ro: Would he be alright with you bowing out as a soloist? Ali: She is Ali: She's gonna come around on her own tho, I know her Ali: She's just pouting Ali: Understandably, I'm not being as glib as I sound, just, we weren't right Ali: Exactly! That would be chill, you've gotta come thru with me just to get food, it's delicious and its beautiful Ali: Yeah, of course, one person can only rock out so hard solo Ali: Even if that one person is me Ali: Like, Bowie had a band, ya feel? Ro: I trust you and your intuition Ro: When's the party? Ro: I need to mentally prepare Ali: ✌ Ali: we've got 2 weeks to prep, assuming he doesn't get his arse dumped Ali: awkies, want us to play you out honey? 😂 Ro: Funeral march for his ego Ro: If the stars are good to me I'll make 2 weeks of wishes Ro: Should suffice Ali: Brilliant Ali: I'll check our charts Ali: Pull out some eyelashes if necessary Ali: The stars will fall and align for us Ro: I have faith Ro: Have you told the others yet? Ali: I haven't actually, I'll drop it in the group chat later Ali: Seeing Caleb tonight so I'll discuss the finer points with him then Ro: Good idea Ro: Oh yes, I'd forgotten it's your date night! Ali: As long as he hasn't we'll be fine 😋 Ro: Have you done his chart? If not he has perfect eyelashes to steal Ali: Not yet Ali: Been getting quizzed myself by his Ma Ali: Fair 'nuff but no time to sneak in so hey Ms Cavante, where was Caleb born and at what time exactly? #witchgirlproblems Ro: How very unfair Ro: Tonight could be the night Ro: I've already got the cards out here, questioning myself Ro: The spread's favorable for the party to go well for us as performers Ro: [Sends her a picture of the tarot] Ali: Knew we'd ace it but with the fates on our side we CANNOT fail Ali: are you asking about the Drew sitch? Ro: Perhaps Ali: I got you Ali: Keep it between you and the universe 💖 Ro: OH what are we going to wear for our first performance? Ali: THE BEST BIT Ali: We need to plan! Ali: Maybe shop! Ali: I think the party is a masquerade ball (how sweet for a hapless stoner, right?) Ali: We could run with that Ro: Well now I'm enthused Ro: Pencil me into your diary please Ali: Absolutely Ali: I think we could make better masks than we could ever find Ali: or makeup looks Ali: we will workshop this Ro: Agreed, you could create something amazing overnight Ali: We could go out and forage fresh flowers for it Ali: that would look beautiful Ro: Yes! Oh my god, we have to Ali: Perfection Ali: I'll see what the others want too Ali: Maybe we could go a galaxy glitter/paint moment on the guys but I feel like Meena would fosho want in on this floral faerie moment Ro: If you need me to start pressing any of the flowers let me know Ro: I'll make time Ali: You're an 👼 Ali: We can do it over lunch Ali: in between practicing Ali: Such busy 🐝s Ro: I don't mind I like to stay busy Ro: Do you think Drew will come to the party? Ali: Same tbh Ali: I bet he will Ali: And not to show off his musical prowess, bless him Ro: Do we need a name to perform under if we don't just want to be called 'Ali's band' by the host? Ali: Fantastic point, I don't want to be THAT lead singer Ali: So much to think on, oosh! We'll have to put the feelers out in the group chat Ali: should be something we all vibe Ro: I bet the boys will have some interesting ideas Ro: You should speak to Tommy as well, he's learn so much stage stuff at school Ro: If we're going to do this might as well make it look professional I think Ali: Agreed Ali: As long as he doesn't want to choreograph a whole girl group dance routine for us Ro: Imagine! Ro: I'd have to hide behind the piano Ali: Shy yet sultry keyboard girl prerogative Ali: I'll crowd surf my way outta there Ro: How long of a set are we going to play? Ro: There's so many potential covers not to mention the originals you and Caleb both have written Ali: Oh man Ali: we could do 20 like an opener but we are the main act, as it were, but its not that hardcore Ali: I think we could put together a 60 Ro: I hope we can all agree between us Ali: we will Ali: oh, could you cover for me with Ma tonight? Ali: she's not my bestie rn Ro: Of course Ro: I have a rare night free of any babysitting duties so it'll be simple Ali: Good, you deserve a break from the little demons Ali: I hope a book and a bubble bath are on the cards after you calm down the dragon Ro: They are indeed Ro: Perhaps I can suggest the same for her Ali: Perhaps I'm just giving myself away as twisted but that is a hilarious mental image Ali: Her grumpy face peeking out of a bubble beard Ro: Ali don't that's going to stay with me when I do get in the tub Ro: Oh no Ali: 🙊🙈 Ali: I can only apologize Ro: Cleansing that from my thoughts immediately Ro: Are you coming home at all or just straight out to see Caleb? Ali: If I do, catch me creeping up the stairs Ali: She's not been this pissy since Lachlan Ali: She's so SURE Caleb is like that and its just Ali: hilarious Ali: imagine Ro: Once she gets to know him better she'll change her mind Ro: She has to Ali: She SHOULD but will she? Ali: Stubborn old goat �� Ali: He's not going anywhere any time soon so if she wants to pine for Marlene that's on her but Ali: 🤷 Ro: I'll start counting cars to wish on just for her (and you), hold my breath, dig out my baby teeth, everything Ro: She just doesn't want to be a grandmother yet is all, it's no slight on Caleb personally I don't believe Ali: My vagina my choice, Mama Ali: Bless her Ali: It'd be fine if she threw out the same level of concern at...oh, idk Ali: Bea and Fraze Ali: 🙄 Ro: If she could secure us all same sex relationships she would, undoubtedly Ro: Likewise, if there was any feasible way to show Bea concern that she'd allow it'd be done Ali: When your kids don't have the good grace to be gay #gutted Ali: Yeah Ali: I need lessons on how to be a bad bitch, clearly Ro: Please don't take any lessons from Bea Ali: Its okay, I don't think she'd be willing to teach me Ro: Very true Ali: Best kept secrets and all that Ro: Speaking of, I've just received a text and must go Ali: Say no more Ali: run baby run 💚 Ro: Have fun tonight Ro: Bluebeard and I will try not to miss you too much Ali: Aww, I'll be home for snuggles lads Ali: wouldn't wanna get pregnant Ali: Laterz Ro: See you soon xx
