Hmm, If Seok-chan were to die, I fuckin hope Yeong-hu mourns like a man who just lost his beloved wife. I need him to scream. I need him to wail. I need him to cry his eyes out. I need him depressed. I need him to be a madman. I need him to kill everyone!! Also, I want Seok-chan's ghost to haunt him. (I love Yeong-hu pls)
I swear they're precious to me. I just need this trope man. I need it.
If they erase Seok-chan and Yeong-hu's relationship, I am coming for your family writer and director.

aight. have some nimona canon divergence AU fic ideas because i’m no writer but i AM going insane
as a huge fan of canon divergence AUs where One Small Decision Changes Everything™ i can’t stop thinking about little bits and pieces from the nimona movie like:
what if the squire had shown ambrosius the video (ohh a fic like this would be Delicious) (mm ambrosius x squire tag team) (ballister’s two biggest fans) (this might be one of my favorite ideas so far) (lots of potential here i feel like)
now there have been a lot of people asking “let’s feel some ANGST what if real ambrosius had walked into the director’s office before nimona” but i will take that and raise you: what if ambrosius had walked in while nimona was doing her thing in the director’s office. perhaps around the time when the director stabbed fake!ambrosius. please consider. may the chaos ensue
ballister had noticed his sword-laser-cannon powering up and moved it away from the queen but it hit something else! or someOne else! (or it killed the queen anyway but still hit somebody else in the process) (oh gods what if it took off his own arm) (or even ambrosius’s—) (can you imagine the kinda twist that would occur if he took off ambrosius’s arm by accident and ballister not resting until he found out who the real culprit is skdjdjdjdjddj) (oh but wait let me make this WORSE what if he hit ambrosius instead of the queen ((don’t worry ambrosius is wearing armor, he doesn’t die he’s just,,, gravely injured?)) and ballister, even if he still gets framed for it, will stop at nothing to find out who did this to ambrosius) (now incorporate nimona into that storyline and hoohoohoo) (i’m rubbing my hands together like a maniacal fruit fly right now)
what if they had uploaded the squire’s video when they got it huh. what then. back it up to the cloud. or just TEXT it to ambrosius you Fool. you absolute Buffoon. (but perhaps this seemingly obvious course of action results in some unexpectedly dire consequences oh no—)
“ooh… nemesis.” “nemesis?” at which point nimona and ballister get stuck in the closet, nimona reveals her shapeshifting abilities, and oh, screw it, if ballister’s situation with his arm-chopping nemesis is really so cOmPLiCAteD then maybe since they’re breaking out of jail anyway they might as well kidnap ambrosius while they’re at it. aka the au where nimona breaks ballister out of jail and she takes ambrosius with them. (i am FEASTING on the possibilities of this one)
let’s take todd’s suspicion and blame directed towards ambrosius (“why didn’t you tell us ballister was working with whales?”) and dial that up to 100. slowly, though, not too fast, it’s gotta build momentum. let’s breed some mistrust in ambrosius. let’s see people refusing to let ambrosius lead the manhunt for ballister on account of their close relationship. let’s see people turn their backs on him thinking he was a conspirator. let’s see ambrosius losing the public’s favor. let’s see ambrosius starting to feel some doubt when he’s alone in his room — let’s see ambrosius wondering what if people are actually as wrong about ballister as he knows they are about ambrosius himself. (what if everybody hates ambrosius too—)
this one is not nearly as straightforward a canon divergence but ponder this: the director noticed the squire was there in the locker room (?) that day and swapped out the swords after the squire had left. or maybe she swapped it out before the squire was ever there. the squire never knew the director had been there. there was no video evidence. now what? up to you >:)
ok hear me out. the squire is a #1 ballister fan right. the squire is probably very careful with the swords and armor he handles. the squire is probably intimately familiar with the swords and other various weaponry and armaments of the institution. the squire is probably very familiar with ballister’s in particular. when ballister first picked up his swapped-out sword he noticed something was off about it, but what if — WHAT IF — the squire had noticed something was off about it first. now of course there’s Possibility #1 where he sees the director swap the sword, and then he checks out the sword and feels that something is wrong with it etc etc (or maybe he mistakes the sword change for an equipment upgrade) BUT now let’s combine this with the previous bullet point for Possibility #2 where the squire DIDN’T see the director swap the sword but he DID notice something was off about the sword before ballister did and actually investigated it. would he discover the hidden weapon, or not? if he did would he bring it to ballister’s attention? ambrosius’s? the director’s? what if he caught the hidden weapon but didn’t mention it and then the queen died and the squire was left fully believing ballister killed the queen (ballister knows mechanics, you’ve seen his arm, it’s plausible he built the weapon into his sword himself) and then ballister and nimona kidnapped him and interrogated him and ballister and the squire were left spiderman meme-ing each other like *points* “i thought YOU were behind all this!” and now the squire is an unwilling sidekick dragged into this by nimona and ballister to figure out who the real culprit is and there’s ACTION and ADVENTURE and COMEDY and it’s absolutely metal—
the squire really feels like a lynchpin in this story is all i’m sayin
if you can’t tell i’m also a fan of happy endings. in my brain most of these canon divergences result in a similar happy ending as the movie. except maybe faster (not always). which i enjoy because i’m sappy and silly anyway thank you and goodnight
#nimona#nimona fanfic#nimona fic#nimona netflix#nimona au#ballister boldheart#ballister blackheart#ambrosius goldenloin#nimona spoilers#nimona squire#nimona director#i don’t write fic but for the fic writers out there (i appreciate you all dearly) pls accept my humble offerings#i’m sure i’ll have more ideas later#my head is spinning#meap posts#nimona stuff

appreciation post for kevin, this random queen from the obscure low-budget 2017 chinese bl movie "mr ceo is falling in love with him". kevin is not involved with the yaoi - in fact his being a queen is not at all relevant to the bl content of the film - but he has a major role and is in no way a negative caricature or the butt of the joke. this movie loves kevin and put him there entirely to be a career woman and serve cunt. i am obsessed with him
#bl movie#chinese bl#mr ceo is falling in love with him#he's even on the MOVIE POSTER#serving some LETHAL EYESHADOW#no-one is ever doing it like him.#this is also some half-hearted bait to try and get people to watch mr ceo. i doubt it will work but look at kevin at least#is the movie good? i would not exactly say so. but it is very much not the genre of bad suggested by the title#it's a satirical commentary on the bl genre and censorship and workplace politics and the entertainment industry. to us (bf and i)#also the mr ceo iceberg... ONLY 1 ACTOR SEEMS TO HAVE ANY OTHER CREDITS. DIRECTOR AND WRITER HAVE NO OTHER WORKS.#MC WAS PLAYED BY A LITERAL ASSISTANT AT THE COMPANY.#as for kevin's actor he is untraceable. no other footage or images of this man no entry as an actor anywhere#we assume the director just picked him up from a gay bar#we believe mr ceo also narrowly escaped becoming lost media because the platform it was exclusively released on died#it lives on only in a very eccentrically english subbed version and a spanish translation thereof#thank u dailymotion dot com for saving kevin from the ravages of time#anyway director duan ge if you're out there bestie pls make another film the culture needs you 🙏

#cat creech#cat creech is my vent tag i think. block it if you don’t want my venting#venting in these tags pls ignore this post if you don’t want to read vent#I feel like I don’t care about stories enough. I don’t read books watch movies or shows#the games I play I’ve already played before or have no story at all. I feel childish and trapped in familiarity#if I could slightly different versions of the same story over and over again I’d be happy. I don’t need stories at all it seems.#I even avoid it often. would opt for comedy or something baseless over a story.#and I wouldn’t be upset over this if I didn’t major in animation#I don’t want to be a director I don’t want to be a writer I don’t want to be in charge of story#but this stupid fucking school makes you do every part of the pipeline. I don’t read or watch anything so unsurprisingly my story is boring#my story for my thesis I mean. it’s uninspiring I’m not proud of it. and it’s changed so much from where it was in the beginning#it doesn’t even feel like mine anymore. I don’t like it and it’s not mine. I don’t want anything to do with it#and I think I realized that being a storyteller means having lessons to tell people or experiences to share#I don’t have either of those things. my life is uninteresting and I don’t learn from my mistakes. my mistakes themselves are boring#all my issues are boring and privileged. no one needs a story or lesson from me. what the fuck can I say that hasn’t been said#and even if I did have a story to tell I don’t want to? I don’t care to teach people or share my experience. that’s never been what art-#-was about for me. art is a selfish escape for me. nothing more. nothing artsy feely or intellectual. ‘why do you draw’ idk it’s fun#I remember old classes where people answered why theyre artists. everyone had interesting answers and here i was-#- I said because it’s fun. like a fucking childish moron. never should have pursued art as a job. you have to want to be an artist to make-#a living from it. I don’t want to be an artist. I just am one as a byproduct of drawing. not the same thing.#I don’t even want to fucking animate anymore. I don’t know what the fuck happened to me but I hate it I hate it so much#I miss when making art wasn’t a task or a job or homework. I really fucking do#I’m tearing up#anyway#weasel speaks#vent

💎 meet jewel! 💎
an aspiring actress and the star of my upcoming gameplay! i've been working on a new maxis-mix gameplay save and I would looove to feature some of ur lovely simmies in it!
💭 about the save file:
celeb themed with a specific focus on the film/tv and music industries. of course I would love celeb sims but pls don’t forget about those behind the scenes! ur sim could be a director, writer, dj, music/film producer, a pa, agent or even an au pair!!!! I’m interested in those at every level of the industry!
details under the cut!
🟢 sim criteria:
pls include a short bio for ur sim which lets me know their personality and style!
no alpha hairs, skin details/overlays or make up! - I’m maxis mix but I’m vvv specific ab what alpha cc I put in my game!
pls package ur sim w only one, minimal cc fit! - I have a looot of cc in my game (220gb) and I am actively trying to cut down so pls be mindful!
must be ok w me tweaking ur sim to more closely match my sim style. - I will never change the ethnicity, gender or sexuality of ur sim but I like a pretty seamless fit so I may change a skin detail or two to achieve that.
mutuals: if u want to send multiple sims or discuss potential storylines, hit me up on dm and we can start yapping away 😁
deadline - april 25th 9pm gmt - pls send sims via dm !!!!!

hello! first, i wanna say you're totally right here. all the points you made are correct, and i agree with your additions, as i agreed with your original post. i wouldn't reblog something to simply disagree in the tags! the tags were there as an addition and a slight rebuttal to opinions that opposed yours. for instance, when a lot of the fandom said colin should have to beg for penelope's forgiveness for saying he'd never court her, i disagreed wholeheartedly, and thought his scene of making amends was lovely, and more than made up for his actions. i don't like the way a lot of this fandom treats colin, and i'm sorry to have seemed to be doing the same. i think some of my tags and tone were misinterpreted here though, so i just want to clarify. i'm not great at communicating, so do try to read this post with the best and most lighthearted intentions. there's a character limit within a tag limit, so i can't always add everything i want to in the tags, and when i try to keep in concise, well, things like these tend to happen. when i said "yes it would be fun" that was meant to be read as, "yeah, yeah, i know you guys [the people who like angst] would like if this happened." which isn't totally disparaging the angst-loving people, by the way, as many actors and writers have confirmed that the original cut (pre-reshoots) of the season was angst-ier! even colin's crying and soft-spoken-ness during the whistledown reveal was unplanned, though it works entirely for his character and the two of them as a couple. the way it was written, he was meant to yell! shout! get angry! so that was my way of acknowledging that, before the second half of my tags were outright saying you were correct. imagine those subsequent tags as me going, "yeah, what they said! good point, boss!" behind you. i referenced like three or four other posts that were probably not read by you prior to this response, which is fair, since i post a whole lot. (there are fifty-five pages of bridgerton content on my blog. lmfao.) i use my tags to talk to myself and my followers, as was their original use (i've been rotting on tumblr since long before they showed up in the notes of a post), so i don't always give all the context in the world. it's kinda funny, i thought my referring to other posts for clarity was over-doing it! apparently not. i don't expect anyone who doesn't follow me to care to read my tags, but i know they're now served directly to the op, so i can see why you'd read them and disagree.
the "bite back" comment was in reference to this post, where i was commenting on the rest of the fandom's reaction to the scene. (in fact, someone reblogged that post with tags i disagree with, that seemed to miss the point of my post, ironically enough.) everyone was freaking out that he said something 'so mean' and i responded by saying, 'ok yes, if we wanted all the drama and messiness that came with the show's other couples, she'd have said something mean back to him there.' i imagined the rest of the scene playing out the same, though, where she apologizes quickly after realizing being rude to him isn't the right move. i'm not saying it would be healthy, nor better, and certainly not more in character. it was just a reference to a joke post i wrote at five in the morning after bingeing the series, and a reply to other people saying she should just call everything off in anger, which i don't agree with. the second post i was referencing was this heartbreaking drabble (which i fully thought i'd reblogged but didn't, so that one's my bad for sure) that has penelope call of the wedding for colin's sake. as in, her understanding she hurt him, and saying, 'i love you so much, i don't want to entrap you in a marriage where you'll be unhappy.' which, i did specify in the tags, by the way. this is just the annulment offer, but set earlier in the show. one thing we may disagree on, though, is that you say: "So if she said 'fine, no entrapment then, we're done' that is, realistically speaking, the death of their relationship." i personally do not think that would be the end of it. especially if, as in that fic and my tags, she called it off so as to not entrap him, to say 'no, you deserve happiness, even if it isn't with me.' i do think he'd be upset by her calling the wedding off. my interpretation of these scenes is that he still wants to marry her. when asked by kate, "does whatever new information you've learned [about penelope] truly negate [your relationship with her]?" [season 3 episode 7 timestamp 30:10] he shakes his head, no. i know this is later on in the show, but it is a feeling i think runs as an undercurrent to the feelings he shows in the scene we're discussing. so when i say his entrapment line is him "holding onto the marriage with his fingernails" i mean it is both him expressing his hurt, and him using propriety and "i am a gentleman" to keep the wedding on. this post i also referenced in the tags covers a lot of my feelings on the matter, though there are some nuances in my view there as well that i didn't bother rambling in the tags for, that time. and this one, and my tags on it, though that one's pretty /silly. but you share the same sentiment just in different words: "Yes, he still wants to marry her, not out of obligation, but because they have history and he has feelings for her." it is not truly obligation that i am arguing here, merely the illusion of obligation in order to hurt her in the moment, to hide his genuine desire to still marry her, and to deal with his more complicated feelings on his own.
also, when i say i want to write a fic about something, i mean it would be interesting to explore as an alternative to what happens in the show, to see how different actions might play out. i never, ever, in a million years think that the actual show should have changed, by the way. i make that clear in this joke post that i'm by no means the best writer. i'm also still waiting on my ao3 invite, so you're safe from my bad, ooc fanfics... for now. i was also referencing a very common joke post using the "please please please" line. i promise i don't actually think he'd say that, nor would it actually go in the fic. it's just a running joke at this point!
you extrapolated a lot about how i view penelope from these tags and, again, i understand why you would, as these are the only words of mine you've read. that's why im providing the context of my blog and other posts i'm referring to. the "no empathy" penelope you described is not at all the way i view penelope! i love her too much for that. she would be an awful partner if she behaved that way. but since we can understand colin lashed out in hurt, we can understand penelope might too, in theory, or in an au. but i understand you simply thought i was seriously saying the show should change or that this was the One True Interpretation, when i was not. context is important. uuu. [this is a joking reference to "prospects are important" and the little noise colin makes after he says his next line after that one. season 3 episode 3 "forces of nature" timestamp 8:57])
this is a great post i also recently reblogged on the topic too! and this one, which i have no clue why i didn't reblog yet. i may have been on mobile when i read it, hah. but they are saying the same thing as you here, and i agree! she truly hurt him, and he was completely within his rights to make a hurtful comment in that moment. i never said otherwise, and i certainly never said she should say or even imply that she didn't love him! i think both of us are also replying to the general fandom in this way. i genuinely love that, in canon, penelope met him with empathy and care right away. it's what he deserves! anyway, to reiterate: i agree with you! i think there were some misinterpretations of my tags and for that i apologize. i'd say agree to disagree, but i think it's mostly agree to agree (on most things) and agree to disagree (on a few small details i interpret slightly different than you) lmao! i hope this clears things up a bit!!
I guess what I find most funny about the 'She should call off the wedding because of Colin's entrapement line!' crowd is like. . .y'all really don't get Penelope at all, do you?
She has loved this man for YEARS. She's loved him through his engagement to someone else, she's loved him through him saying he wouldn't court her, she's loved him through multiple countries, through her family mocking their closeness, through a potential marriage to a Lord. She loved him so much she couldn't even DENY having feelings for him to save what she thought was her only chance of getting married. Do you know how easy it would have been for her to go 'No, we're just friends, I don't like him like that, you're proposing to me and that's what matters'? She couldn't denounce her feelings for him even THEN. Even when she doesn't think he reciprocates them and she's made peace with a life with Debling and is expecting his proposal. Colin was *always* first in her heart, through all those hurdles.
Because Colin has been kind in a cruel world, and he's made her laugh, and he encourages her confidence and he's warm and he's gorgeous and he centers her and he values her and he listens and makes her feel desired and beautiful. He's a good man, and her love for him makes her feel good, she treasures it. Even in the books she says it feels good to love a good person, whether he loved her back or not. And now she knows that he does and you think one line that Colin says in obvious hurt after finding out she's been hiding a secret persona for him is enough to shake that love? She spent what? Half a decade looking out her window pining for him and now on the eve of getting to live a life with him as husband and wife, she's going to chuck that away because of one sentence? How lowly do you think of her? How *stupid* do you think she is? To throw away the love of her life over what? Her pride? This fandom's OOC Fanon Pen is a disservice to Penelope's actual character.
Her love for Colin is steadfast. It's made of tougher stuff than all that. It has survived everything that has been thrown at it. Distance, other people, Portia. And y'all really, truly believe that a singular statement will make her go 'Naw, I don't want it anymore!' PUHLEASE. Even when she offers him that annulment, you KNOW she knows it's not on the table.
Stop playing. OF COURSE she didn't call off the wedding. Of COURSE she chose to understand where he was coming from and went 'I didn't mean to trap you, Colin, I love you'. Of course she asks what the marriage will be and is comforted by the fact that he still wants to go through with it.
Penelope Featherington has loved Colin most of her life. It has been one of the few constants in her existence. He has been good to her in said existence, consistently. He's listened, he's cared, he's apologized to her, he's taken ownership of his actions, he's invited her to be more open, he's joked with her, he's supported her, he saw her when she was invisible. She. Loves. Him. And for good reason.
It's not going away because of one line. Or two. Or three. Come back next time when you actually understand her.
#if anyone reads this whole thing AND all of the posts i link within it you're so strong and brave. frankly. this is a ramble and a half#i only got like three hours of sleep so if this isn't worded right BLEASE just give me the benefit of the doubt here im v tired#i was /lh in the tags. i didn't mean this to be. that serious. so pls forgiv me#but i tried my best. i cited my sources. lmfao#i also like. am constantly reblogging ''think about this from colin's side'' meta so i truly did not think those tags would be read#as being mean to or dehumanizing him (tho ill remind everyone they are fictional characters and that analysis and critique are of the#writers actors directors editors etc. every scrunch of colin's eyebrows is a deliberate choice made by a team of people and not like#one real guy i'm talking about. watsonian vs doyalist analysis is important here i think. he is after everything a fictional character)#this post took me longer to write than the amount of hours i slept before writing it. i treated this post like a nine-to-five#very important to me that people understand what i meant. being misinterpreted is my hell truly#i love this fictional man he deserves all the softness and kindness in the world#bridgerton#bridgerton spoilers#and fuck it since i talked SO much on this one it's also going into my#txtly#tag. cause im sharing thoughts and many many opiniuons#ok thanks for reading sorry my og tags were unclear!!#edit: after reading some more convos in the replies i especially see how you could have interpreted my tags the way you did! eep!!#i really hope this clears everything up cause the way you took it was certainly not how i meant it lmao!!

pairing: Hannibal Lecter/Reader
the reader is referred to with he/him pronouns. otherwise, race is ambiguous and no physical descriptors are used.
summary:
…With me today is the writer and director of the series that has taken the world by storm, By Proxy. Thank you for joining me. “Thank you for having me,” you respond easily. This was the first collaboration between you and Hannibal Lecter, who plays the main character in the film. How did you navigate that process?
The development of your relationship with Hannibal, through the eyes of your fans. (social media au)
word count: 5.4k | ao3 version
notes: This fic takes place in an alternate universe where you’re the writer and director of your hit television series, By Proxy. Hannibal is an actor who takes on the role of the deuteragonist, Soren. When you two meet, sparks fly.
This fic is a modern social media fic, where the narrative is mainly told through IG/Twitter/YouTube posts. There are some bits of regular dialogue though, don’t worry 😏
There's *a lot* of formatting (bold and italic) in this one, so I've provided a formatting-free version on AO3. It's the same thing, minus the bold and italic.

Interview with the Director of the Hit Series, By Proxy
…Joining me today is the writer and director of the series that has taken the world by storm, By Proxy. Thank you for joining me today.
“Thanks for having me,” you respond easily.
This was the first collaboration between you and Hannibal Lecter, who plays one of the main characters in the film. How did you navigate that process?
“Hannibal is every director’s dream,” you respond with a laugh. “He’s creative and clever, while also willing to take criticism. Very detail-oriented and easy to work with.”
How’d the casting process go?
“I can’t pretend I wrote the role for him, because I didn’t,” you admit. “The first few rounds of casting are handled by the agent I work with. She deserves the credit, really.”
“I sit in on the final auditions, though. It’s always a really rewarding experience to see artists honing their craft. And directing is never a one-time thing, of course. We’re always thinking about future projects, so it’s nice to be able to scope out the talent.”
You must’ve seen Hannibal’s final audition, then.
“Yes, I did,” you answer.
What set him apart?
“He had a very firm grasp of Soren and his motivations,” you recall. “That kind of effort and analysis definitely set him apart—doing supplementary research on the character is something of a lost art these days.”
You stop to think for a moment. “Hannibal is also able to imbue meaning into even the smallest gestures and movements, which convinced me he was perfect for the role.”
Any upcoming projects you’re excited about?
“Ah, I don’t think I can answer that,” you say with a helpless expression. “But I will say that I’ve been having a lot of fun, and I’m excited to explore genres I may not have been familiar with in the past.”
Sounds like we’ll be seeing more of your work in the future! Well, thank you very much for your time.
“Thank you,” you respond with a smile. “It was nice to meet you.”

Interview with Hannibal Lecter, who plays the enigmatic Soren on By Proxy
…Introducing actor Hannibal Lecter, who plays the role of fan-favorite Soren in the new series, By Proxy. Welcome, and thank you for joining us.
“Thank you for having me,” Hannibal responds amicably.
I spoke with the director of By Proxy mere moments ago, and he had a lot to say about you.
“Nothing too unflattering, I hope,” Hannibal smiles.
No, it was all very flattering. I’m curious to hear your side of the story, though. Why did you decide to audition for the role and how did the process go?
“I heard about the role through my agent, of course,” Hannibal recounts. “I was immediately interested, as the character seemed very complex and compelling.”
The director admitted he didn’t write the role with anyone specific in mind.
“That’s one of the many things I admire about him,” Hannibal admits. “He’s a breath of fresh air in this industry.”
So, how did you convince him to cast you for the role of Soren?
Hannibal chuckles. “I’ll be perfectly honest: after the first few rounds of auditions, I was convinced I would be dropped. I was very surprised, then, to receive an invite to the final audition. And the director was observing, of course.”
“He didn’t reveal any of his feelings. He had a blank expression on his face the entire time and, I have to admit, I thought he disliked me. When I received a call a few days later, I was very surprised.
When we met for the first time, he almost seemed like a different person. Enthusiastic and driven. It was immensely clear that he cared about the story and the different arcs of the characters.”
That’s funny. He said he was impressed with your audition.
Hannibal raises a brow. “He must have a very good grasp on his emotions, then,” he says with a smile.
What sets him apart from the directors you’ve worked with in the past?
“He’s a marvelous director,” Hannibal responds. “Very talented, of course. But there’s a sense of authenticity to him—one that’s hard to find elsewhere. He’s remarkably flexible when it comes to trusting the actors’ unique interpretations of their characters, which can be rare. He’s also upfront about his expectations—he’s good at verbalizing how he wants each scene to take place, how he wants the narrative to unfold. Every moment felt intentional.”
A strange expression passes over Hannibal’s face. It almost looks like nostalgia. “I’m going to miss working with him.”
I’m sure there are many projects coming up for him.
Hannibal nods in agreement. “I’d be honored to work with him again.”
Maybe another season is in the works.
“I would be pleasantly surprised,” Hannibal responds smoothly, a hint of that smile from before working its way onto his face.
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me, Hannibal. I’m sure the fans will be eagerly awaiting your next appearance.

You’re thrilled to accept a contract for the filming of season two of your series, By Proxy. You want to keep the same actors you worked with before, which means you have to make a few house calls. First on the list is Hannibal Lecter, the actor who plays Soren. He’s one of the most vital components to the show.
“Hannibal,” you greet the actor as he answers your phone call.
“Hello,” Hannibal says amicably. “To what do I owe the pleasure?”
You decide to cut right to the chase. “By Proxy has been renewed for two more seasons,” you answer, unable to hide your excitement.
There’s silence on the other end of the line for a moment. “That’s excellent news. Congratulations.” His voice sounds a bit clipped, although it’s nearly impossible to tell with him. Hannibal has always been scarily good at controlling his emotions.
You slowly begin to realize what he’s thinking. “I was hoping you’d continue playing the role of Soren,” you say, hoping to dispel some of his assumptions. It sounds like he didn’t expect you to invite him back.
You can almost see the slight pull to his lips. “I would be honored,” Hannibal responds smoothly.
“Great!” you smile. “See you soon, then.”

[interviewcut.mp4: A short clip taken from the same interview featuring Alana, Hannibal, and you. The reporter has steered the conversation towards discussions of romance and the actors’ personal lives. You remain quiet for a while.
“And you?” The interviewer turns to you, the only person who hasn’t acknowledged the question yet. “Perhaps there’s a special relationship you’d like to share?”
“Not particularly,” you respond. And even if there were someone, you wouldn’t tell the press anything. You think you’re entitled to at least some privacy.
“You’re quite sure?” the interview pushes. They seem moments away from badgering you, before someone else cuts through the tense silence.
“I believe he said so, yes,” Hannibal interjects smoothly. The interviewer blinks and freezes for a second before apologizing. The clip ends.]

“And the Emmy for Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series goes to…….”
Wait. They just said your name. The cameraman nearby is pointing the camera at you, putting your surprised face on the big screen. You’re staring ahead with wide eyes, unable to believe what’s happening. You could’ve sat there frozen for several more minutes, but you somehow force yourself to get up. A few of your actors reach out to clap you on the shoulder or hug you. You turn to Hannibal, who has gotten up with you, and embrace him.
At that moment, time seems to freeze. Everything fades to the background, as Hannibal pulls you close and congratulates you. Somehow, his words of encouragement and praise are what motivate you to keep going—to eventually break away and ascend the stairs to take the stage. You give a quick hug to the emcee, who passes off the Emmy to you.
You swallow hard and step up to the glass podium, placing the Emmy down for a moment. “Um,” you say awkwardly, “thanks.” You let your eyes sweep over the crowd for a moment and your gaze lands on Hannibal unwittingly.
The words are spilling from your lips before you can stop them. Ah well. So long, dignity. Farewell, respect from your peers. “I didn’t prepare anything for this,” you admit. “Honestly, this award is… well. It’s both meaningful and entirely meaningless.”
There’s a tense silence at that remark. You find your gaze flitting to Hannibal, who has an amused glimmer in his eyes. Somehow, seeing him motivates you to continue. “I just mean… It’s such an honor to be here among so many talented writers and directors. And it’s virtually impossible to pick one person over the others.”
“So I’m going to switch it up a bit,” you declare. “Instead of going on about my dreams and my family and all that… I’m going to spotlight the other creators in this category.”
And that’s exactly what you do. You take a few moments to highlight the other directors and your favorite parts of their shows. You don’t want to take up too much time, and you know the longer you stand up here, the more you’ll make a fool of yourself. Might as well quit while you’re ahead.
“Anyways… thanks?” you say weakly, just wanting this experience to be over. You’re holding the award on the podium in a tight grip, bowing your head and praying someone will put an end to your misery. The music starts to play and there’s some scattered applause as you’re soon ushered backstage.
Your hands are shaking and you’re in a complete daze as you head down the winding halls, murmuring words of gratitude to those who congratulate you. Within a few minutes, your cast is meeting up with you to celebrate—exchanging hugs and praise. Despite the somewhat pessimistic tone of your speech, you’re happy you won the award.
Your cast. Your show…Your award.
Wow.

#HanDirector i knew this was too faggy to be a moment between friends:
[presstour.mp4: A short clip taken from an interview Hannibal and you participated in on the press tour for the series. The interviewer asks Hannibal a question about something and you look to him for his response.
When he answers, he glances at you and smiles, before bringing a hand to your shoulder to punctuate his answer. You blink before smiling back hesitantly.]

______
“I doubt your fans are very happy with me,” you sigh as you sit on Hannibal’s sofa, idly watching as hashtags for Hannibal and you soar up the Twitter Trending page. You just went public with your relationship a few hours ago, and it’s been kind of chaotic since then.
“They’ll survive, I’m sure,” Hannibal says with a smile, wrapping an arm around your shoulders. You lean into him in response, and the two of you share a comfortable solitude.
“I hope so,” you eventually murmur.
“They will,” he asserts. “And you’re doing yourself a disservice: you have your own following,” Hannibal reminds you.
“I guess,” you admit.
“I’ve had feelings for you for a while,” he admits after a few moments.
You blink and break away from him slightly to study the expression on his face. Hannibal looks entirely sincere.
“For how long?” you ask, your voice sounding far calmer than you feel.
“Since the first shoot week,” he confesses.
“Seriously?” you question disbelievingly. “I was a frazzled mess.”
“Maybe,” Hannibal says with a joking lopsided smile. He shakes his head and reaches out to grasp your hand. “No, I was attracted to your passion. You were—are—very easy to work with. I’ve never looked forward to shoot days like that before.”
“And I was attracted to you too, of course,” he continues. “You’re very charming, even if you’re ‘a frazzled mess,’” he recites with a slight smile.
“I’ll take your word for it,” you say, unwilling to concede the argument. You remember how utterly exhausted and overwhelmed you felt those first few days, working on your first truly big television. project. But Hannibal’s presence, his commitment to the project… it reassured you. You tell him as much. He squeezes your hand and the two of you return to an easy silence.

here to ask about the camera panning to eddie. give me the freak answer pls
when i saw that shit airing i yelled and spilled wine on my carpet.
like. i feel like this is common sense but i dont know if people realize how intentional each second of a show/movie is. like whether the show is a silly sitcom or a serious drama everything is so intentional and purposeful. of course theres always continuity errors and mistakes that happen when you’re creating a show of that size thats been running for so long but for the most part everything has its intentions. its why you see certain themes come back again and again. im not gonna get into outfit meta or anything like that because its not really my wheelhouse but i did learn a lot about camera techniques and im a writer so. yeah.
shots are one of the most important aspects of a movie or a tv show. they set the mood. close up shots convey intensity and emotion while more wide shots establish a scene etc. they gave us a lot of close up shots of eddie’s face in the kim and eddie scene at the end of 7x09 because it was an intense moment for eddie as a character for example. you have to get the shot right to convey what you want your audience to see yknow.
so. you have the medal ceremony. they couldve done the announcements for these people in literally any order because they fucking wrote the script. they didnt do it alphabetically or anything normal they literally had the trio of triangulated desire standing in the back with buck in the middle AGAIN while chim and hen were being normal and serving cunt up front. and when they were sitting they had buck in the middle again because reasons. then once they got their medals itd pan to their families and significant others clapping. ofc for tommy they pan to buck because thats the person there supporting him. for BUCK they had so many options. they had bobby, his captain that he verbally said was his father figure the next episode, they had maddie, his fucking SISTER AND THE WOMAN WHO RAISED HIM, and they had tommy, the dude he’s dating. instead they pan to eddie.
literally that is the absolute LOUDEST fucking thing the show has done so far in my opinion. they panned to buck for tommy!!! they couldve panned back to buck or done it in a different order if they didnt wanna repeat so they could pan to them for each other!!! but they panned to eddie and the director of photography was even emphasizing that choice on twitter.
the entire bi arc had eddie written all over it. they had so many opportunities to shove their relationship to the side and double down on their friendship but they didnt. instead we had buck tweaking at the gym where we have no idea who eddie was even talking to on that phone, eddie constantly mentioned by buck in a kiss scene with someone else, the line of all time ‘MY attention?’, eddie interrupting the date next episode, buck not even giving a FUCK about the date because he lied to eddie, the shit maddie said that episode about being confused about his feelings, eddie saying nothing is gonna change between them (which. thats a chekov’s gun if ive ever seen one), and all the entire shit with the bachelor party. not even mentioning the implications of the song choice for the karaoke scene that paralleled madney because we didnt get it in the episode. they couldve completely avoided all of that but they didnt and then when buck is dating someone else they dont pan to HIM being happy and supportive for buck, they pan to EDDIE. it feels as if its supposed to remind us what’s actually going on or another attempt to clue us in
also like right after they had the two who were dating acting as acquaintances. and had that guy also kinda put buck’s excitement down at said ceremony. and later in that episode had buck ditch plans with the guy he was dating to make sure eddie was okay. for reasons i guess. so buddie canon or theyre doing a real bad job at getting me to care about bucks actual man

Flower Delivery (pt. 3)
(ex!Nicholas alexander chavez x ex!black!reader)
Requests:
no cause you’re most recent nicholas chavez fic ATE DOWNNN girl pls write another i beg. or literally just other nicholas chavez fics cause your writing is incredible!! - 🍒
And
I know you literally just posted flower delivery part 2 but I need part three! It’s sooooo good!!!! - anon
Description: Just when you think your life is back on track and you landed a new leading role, he’s thrust back into your life when you find out he’s in the show too. Now as you start filming, you aren’t really sure what you want anymore.
Warnings: obsessive behaviors (cont’d), he’s your scene partner…turned kinda lover (kissing only), Ryan Murphy jumpscare (yikes), mentions of episode 4 of grotesquerie (just one scene)
Word count: 2.9k words
Note: Sorry for the delay on part 3, work has been working lol, but I really appreciate all of the kindness and love everyone has been showing my posts/page <3 I ended up writing this four different times before I finally decided I liked it lol and I decided to make it longer to make up for my lack of content since I posted the last one.
Also I know the timeline is a little wonky in this in terms of Nicholas’ filming schedule for Monsters and Grotesquerie, so let’s just pretend he finished filming for Monsters completely before starting filming for Grotesquerie.
Thanks for the request 🍒 and anon!
part one part two
masterlist
You couldn’t believe it, it was almost too good to be true. There hadn’t been any surprise deliveries or week-night break-ins for the past six months. It was almost like he just disappeared for the past six months, and part of you was relieved since you no longer had to worry about his annoying and unhinged behavior; but another part of you secretly missed him, although you had been trying to convince yourself that it was only because you had gotten so used to his presence that now it was just…different.
Since the last time he had showed up at your place unannounced you had finished the project you had been working on and landed a new lead role in a brand new Ryan Murphy project, Grotesquerie.
Although you were well aware of the controversies surrounding the director, your new agency convinced you to take the role. It was so different from anything you had ever done before, and you had been wanting to try the horror genre. It was so new, in fact, that you hadn’t even had the opportunity to meet the rest of the cast since you hadn’t auditioned in the traditional way and Ryan himself had asked you to take the role.
You were up bright and early to be on set for the first day of filming for Grotesquerie. You arrived on set at 6:30 and headed straight to the hair and makeup trailer after briefly saying hello to Ryan, the production team, and the other writers that were on set. You still hadn’t seen your scene partners, assuming they were in hair and makeup as well.
You fell into a comfortable conversation with the hair stylist and makeup artist, telling them about your other project and how you were a fairly new actor.
“Girl, don’t talk down about yourself like that. Everyone starts somewhere.” The makeup artist, Darryl, told you squeezing your shoulder as Keisha, your hair stylist, nodded in the mirror.
“Thanks.” You smiled at the pair of them before you all turned when your trailer door opened. A woman with bright red hair and green eyes walking in with a small smile on her face.
“Hey Sue!” Darryl and Keisha smiled and waved at her.
“Hey D. Hi Keisha!” The middle aged woman smiled. “Hi (y/n), it’s great to meet you. I’m Sue. I’m just here to make sure your wardrobe is correct for the upcoming scene.” She explained as you nodded. “We had a slight change to the filming schedule to work around scheduling conflicts for some of our crew so we’ll be filming a little out of order today.”
“Oh ok. No worries.” You smiled. “What’s the change?”
“Our intimacy coordinator has to pick her son up from school early today so we have to get the scenes she’s involved with out of the way first.” She explained. “When you’re done with hair and makeup and have your wardrobe on then she’ll quickly meet with you to discuss the way it will be filmed.”
“Ok. Thanks for the heads up, Sue.” You smiled again, though Darryl and Keisha could tell you were becoming anxious when Sue left.
“Don’t be nervous, (Y/n). Sarah, our intimacy coordinator, is amazing.” Keisha reassured you.
“And I know this is obviously your job, but the actor is…hot.” Darryl added after a slight pause. You and Keisha laughed as he pretended to fan himself.
Hair and makeup finished shortly after that and you were dressed and ready to go after Keisha made sure that the habit you wore in the scene was placed correctly.
You exited the trailer as you noticed a dark haired woman with curly hair was talking to a tall, broad man, dressed in a jacket with a thick white towel wrapped around his waist…your scene partner. Darryl was right. At least from the back, the man was hot and muscular.
Your hands grew clammy as you walked up to them, Sarah smiling and waving you over. You wore a small smile as you approached. The smile was replaced with your jaw nearly dropping when the man who was to be your scene partner turned around causing you to almost stop in your tracks. “(Y/n) have you met Nicholas yet?” Sarah asked as you joined their conversation.
“Yeah. We’ve…uh…met before.” You said, fighting against the lump in your throat that was forming. Your mouth was so dry it felt like you might choke. You swallowed visibly as Nicholas smirked at you.
You glanced over his appearance. Although the jacket he was wearing was pretty loose around him and pretty much hid his upper body completely, you could still tell he was way more muscular than he had been when you saw him last.
“Great!” She smiled with a clap of her hands. “Let’s head inside and talk through the scene then.” You and Nicholas nodded as you followed her inside the filming location. “Alright so the way the scene currently lays this out is (Y/n) you’ll come from the doorway to sit in this chair, Nicholas you’ll come from the bathroom there and then walk over to the door, close it, and then stand in front of the chair. You’ll say your lines and then (y/n) you’ll stand and you’ll walk backwards until you get to here.” She stopped at the dresser that was sitting below the cross that was on the wall. “Nicholas you’ll lift (y/n) and put her down sitting on the dresser and then the scene will play out…any questions about that?” She asks as you both shake your heads no. “Alright. Anything either of you don’t feel comfortable doing?”
“I’m ok.” Nicholas said, though you could feel his eyes burning into the side of your face.
“I’m good.” You agreed, looking at Sarah instead.
“Great!” She smiled. “And the intimacy garments are ok? Do either of you want a different one?”
“This one is ok, thanks Sarah.” You told her as Nicholas agreed.
“It’s good, thanks Sarah.”
“Alright, great. Thank you guys. I’ll be behind the camera the whole time so if we need to do a few takes I’ll be here to help with anything. If you want to try something else at any time we can do that too.” She explained as you both nodded.
How did you always manage to get yourself into situations like these?
She excused herself, telling the pair of you that she was off to get the production team and Ryan to let them know you both were good to go. Nicholas turned to you, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest, and an almost wolfish grin on his face.
You had to admit that he did look really good. The way he was leaning allowed you to see his abs between the gap in the jacket since he hadn’t zipped it up. “You’re staring.”
“You’re the one smirking at me.” You redirected as he stood up off the wall and took a step closer to you.
“Like what you see?” His voice seemed deeper, huskier, as his dark eyes scanned over you before settling back on yours. He sent you a wink as Ryan and the production team followed by Sarah came back and Nicholas walked past you to his mark, handing his jacket to an assistant as you went into the hallway to wait for the scene to start.
“Action!” You heard the sound of the water shut off and you peaked your head into Father Charlie’s room before coming to stand in the doorway.
He glanced back before walking to stand a few paces in front of you next to the bed, the towel low on his hips and water droplets cascading down his chest. His hair was pushed back from his face and wet as if he really had just gotten out of the shower. “You were watching me. Earlier in the rec room.” He paused, watching your expression but you remained neutral. “Anything worth seeing?”
“It…It was…” you paused for a moment, letting out a breath. “An exhalation of God’s glory through physical prowess.”
“Yeah?” Nicholas sat on the bed, his face turned slightly down but his eyes raised to look over at you. A slow smile appeared on his face. That was not scripted, you knew that for sure. “It’s kinda become my side hustle.” He said after a second. Back to the script. He said his other lines as you continued to sit in the chair, back stiff against the back of the chair as your hands laid in your lap.
“They say…it’s a sin of the flesh, but, I say-“ he began to say as you cut him off with your lines.
“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, which is in you? Therefore honor God with your bodies.” You responded softly as he nodded, breathing out a simple ‘Yes’.
He stood up from the bed and stopped to stand in front of you, your gaze following him. He smirked at you, something the camera didn’t catch, before dropping the expression and walking to the door and closing it. To say your heart was beating fast would’ve been an understatement.
“This is exactly what they’re talking about right now at the Vatican.” You zoned out for a moment after he started delivering his lines, walking to stand in front of you again. You zoned back in when you heard the end of his line “celibacy, for those in the cloth.”
He reached over to you as you sharply inhaled when his fingers played with the cross necklace you wore. That wasn’t scripted either. You could see that he enjoyed catching you off guard and no one was yelling cut because the extra touches made sense for your characters.
“That’s…That’s difficult to imagine.” Your voice caught and he smirked as you looked up at him and swallowed thickly. It was an honest mistake on your part, but Nicholas was eating it up. At moments it was hard to tell whether he was currently in the mindset of Father Charlie Mayhew or Nicholas Chavez.
He licked his lips, still holding onto the necklace, his voice lowering. “Is it really so difficult?” He said more but you zoned out again when his hand released your necklace and unbuttoned your vest. He was delivering his lines while standing to the side of you, bent down in your face, so your faces were only inches apart.
You dropped the newspaper in your hand as he continued unbuttoning your vest, slowly. You hadn’t meant to, but no one yelled cut again, so you assumed it was fine. “The church is dying, Mother Eva.” He said as you breathed out again, not breaking eye contact. You could see in his eyes that he was amused, he definitely was enjoying this scene.
He delivered more lines and bent in closer to you and you couldn’t help your instinctive reaction. Your lips parted as if you were preparing for him to kiss you, like he used to do. All of this was like a flashback to how it used to be, and yeah, he had been unhinged but there was no denying that he was incredibly passionate.
“They know that change must come.” He said softly, your nose touching his before he stepped back completely from you, this time standing directly in front of you. He looked down at you as you took the opportunity to look over his body before looking down at the towel like you were supposed to do. You followed the scene instructions and pulled the towel from around his waist, letting it fall to the floor with a soft thud. You looked back up slowly at his face, your lips slightly parted as you watched him.
“It is still a sin.” You said as he picked your hand up and kissed your hand and wrist. He walked you over to the dresser like the scene outlined.
“We are…and we always will be.” He backed you up into the dresser, your shoes hitting it causing it to bump against the wall.
“Sinners.” You finished, practically whispering as your eyes looked over his face as he picked you up onto the dresser, his hands running down your sides as he stood in between your legs and your lips practically touched.
“So fuck it.” You could feel the movement of his lips against yours as he spoke, pulling the vest from your arms as you pushed your chest into him to get the vest off. He began unbuttoning your shirt and pulled the edge off one shoulder as he began to kiss there, your hands going to his hair.
Someone behind the camera coughed and the loud “Cut!” pulled you both completely out of the scene. You let out a gasp as Nicholas pressed a lingering kiss to your neck before stepping back.
You blinked a few times, your hands holding onto the edge of the dresser, as you let out a breath. You didn’t miss the way Nicholas wore a smug expression, but your smile widened when you pointed down subtly.
Nicholas raised his shoulders in a shrug as he secured the towel back around his waist. “Let’s take 15 and run it again. Thanks Jerry for ruining that take!” Ryan called passive aggressively. Jerry, the man who coughed, looked as if he wanted the earth to swallow him up.
You slid off the dresser and walked to your trailer, not noticing the way Nicholas excused himself just after you, easily falling into step behind you.
You fell onto the couch with a huff, annoyed at yourself for being reminded of the past. You were over him, there was no way you were going to entertain him again. All he did was bring chaos into your life.
“He broke into your apartment, remember?” You whispered to yourself, eyes widening when your trailer door opened and in walked Nicholas, closing and locking the door behind him.
“I know you still feel the same way I do.” He started as you shook your head. He stepped closer to you, standing in front of you much like the scene you had just had.
“You’re wrong.” He shook his head, smiling at your stubbornness.
“I saw the way you were looking at me. You got into it. It wasn’t just acting.”
“Says the guy who just tried to give me an unscripted hickey.” You retorted defensively, standing up suddenly and poking him. He caught your hand, intertwining your fingers with his as he pulled you closer, leaning down so he was only a couple inches away from your lips.
“Tell me you don’t want this.” He whispered as you remained quiet. “Tell me you don’t want me to ki-“ He was cut off by your lips crashing into his. You weren’t even thinking at that point. He was intoxicating, everything about him was intoxicating and you knew that you should just stay away, but it was him. It was hard to make rational decisions when he was so close and his very presence cleared all of the rationality from your brain.
He pulled back after the heated kiss, a smirk on his face as he looked at you. “So I was right.” He remarked, there goes the cockiness.
“Oh my God, just shut up.” You rolled your eyes before he obliged and pulled you close, his hands traveling up and down your body as yours ran through his hair and held onto his shoulders and biceps. He broke the kiss again to plant kisses from your lips to your neck, his teeth scraping against the sensitive skin on your neck, surely leaving a mark that you weren’t sure how you would explain.
“We shouldn’t be doing this.” You said, but you didn’t pull away from him. “The camera is going to see all of the marks you're leaving and we won’t be able to explain it away.”
“We’re filming a sex scene. It’ll be fine.” He decided as your nails ran down his arms, careful of the makeup and special effects on his back.
He groaned against your lips when a loud knock at the trailer door interrupted your activities. “They’re ready for you on set. Hair and makeup is just going to do some touch ups before we shoot again.” An assistant called as you placed a hand on his chest and stepped back.
“See you on set.” You said before stepping out of the trailer and walking over towards where Keisha and Darryl were waiting to do touch ups.
“(Y/n), why is your makeup so messed up around your mouth? Y'all didn’t even shoot a kiss yet.”
Let me know what else you’d like to see or share any ideas you might have!

First and Soong switching to English might be a choice™ but it's a very deliberate one:
Ask any (predominantly Western) person about Thailand and the thing that almost immediately comes up is sex tourism and sexpats (yes, that's unfortunately a word). The language of sex tourism is English, and very often Englishization takes place even in sex-tourism-adjacent places.
Second language speakers often find it easier to make decisions and express themselves in (one of their) second language(s) as for them it lacks the cultural barriers and taboos imposed by their first language.
Beyond that, I find it kind of strange to make fun of people for their (second language) accents. There's subtitles provided for comprehension and, seriously, the English language doesn't need gatekeeping.
I get it. Playboyy isn't everyone's cup of tea. Hate watch away, reddit. You do you.
But to actually make fun of the actors' looks? Imagine the outrage if some dudes (happens often enough, I know) went on and on about whether some actress' boobs were fake and how hilarious they look. But it's okay if it's an actor in a sex-positive, queer show, I guess.
Don't even get me started on the extremely bad take that it's totally okay for sex workers to be forced into sex. They have sex all the time anyway so it can't be a "punishment", right?
UGH. What the hell is wrong with people.
#jane watches stuff#playboyy#linguistics#this came up in that reddit thread too and i'm like????#you're allowed not to like a director's choice#but to make fun of people for their English?#btw how's your thai these days?#and even if the director/writer used the English dialogue for highlighting or style#it's still a statement#also pls consider that this series wasn't made with an English-speaking audience in mind

Caught checking her out while she smoked outside the audition building, he tried to make a move, but when he asked for her name and number, her response was, 'You'll probably find it on the front of the script.' #OBX #rudyandyn❤️
