Tagging my moots that I like to see their opinions for this (as well as the ones I tagged within the list as well):

Tumblr media
what's up guys!!! monthly recs - some holiday-related fics and then just general fics. i've not had as much opportunity to read fic as i normally do, and i'm pretty disappointed by that, but the hecticness of the holiday season has restrained me, unfortunately. for december we've got a lot of buddie and tevan, tarlos, bathena, mateo/nancy, polyfire, saltommy and a dash of henren! happy new years<3
🎁 cheap décor and flavoured cheer || @theclaravoyant evan buckley/eddie diaz/tommy kinard || 4k When Eddie flies back to El Paso, something goes terribly wrong. A fic about hurt/comfort, nostalgia, Christmas and coming home.
🔥 thursdays child has far to go|| @kinnsporsche evan buckley/tommy kinard || 17k Tommy laughs, as much as it can be called a laugh when he can barely get the air to do it, but his breath still grazes against Buck’s lips, the ghost of what he really wants. It’s warm, and Tommy’s still looking at him, and it’s been eighteen days, and he’s baked on nearly every one of them. They’re in a crashed helicopter and Tommy’s pinned down and it’s a terrible idea and it’s been eighteen days, he’s counted every one, and- Buck kisses him.
🔥 snowflakes falling like winter butterflies || 2pretty_2die evan buckley/tommy kinard || 1.6k “Oh man, I don’t think I’ve seen snow in nearly a decade.” “I don’t think I’ve ever seen snow outside of TV and movies.”An off-handed comment made while they cuddled on the couch watching Tommy’s favorite (Christmas) movie on Netflix ended with Buck scouring the internet for a surprise for his boyfriend.
🔥 Misperception || @emphasisonthehomo evan buckley/tommy kinard || 7.2k There’s a new kid at Harbor. He’s the youngest rookie they’ve ever gotten, one of those guys that went for the academy right out of high school. He’s also gay. Flamboyantly gay. Tommy’s jealous. OR: It doesn’t occur to Tommy that he should come out.
🔥 Bulletproof || ScarsLikeVelvet evan buckley/david 'deacon' kay || 1.1k (S.W.A.T. crossover). A rain of bullets is the beginning of the end for Evan's and Eddie's time at the 118. Their professional paths divide, but they remain close all the same while making new friends.
🔥 take my hand, heal my wound || 2pretty_2die evan buckley/donovan rocker || 1.2k (S.W.A.T. crossover). Buck expected a lot when it came to a day of hanging out with Christopher. He knew they’d play some games, maybe watch a movie, go indulge in some good food—because he has definitely turned the kid into a fellow foodie—and likely spend some time out in the sun. What he did not expect to happen was to end the day cleaning gravel from his boyfriend's hands.
🔥 A quiet place || @calinaannehart athena grant/bobby nash || 2.7k Athena had given up trying to sleep somewhere around three and had settled on the couch to wait for the sunrise. It used to be her favorite time of day, the array of reds, oranges, and yellows that painted the sky over the backyard as the sun inched its way over the horizon offering a prelude to a beautiful day. Now, however, it served as nothing more than a countdown.
🔥 Sprinkles of Joy|| BatThatBites mateo chavez/nancy gillian || 2k Mateo and Nancy are tasked with making the cookies for the 126 winter party. It can’t be that hard, right? ….Right?
🔥 A Crack In The Facade || immortalje carlos reyes/tk strand || 634w Working on last bits of release paperwork, Carlos tried to process the conversation he just had with TK and the glimpse it had given him behind the facade he wore for everyone else.
🔥 my lover's body is a map || @kinnsporsche evan buckley/tommy kinard || 15.5k They're all scarred. All of them. There isn't a single person in the firehouse that's unscarred, it's just the nature of the job. But that doesn't make the process of getting them any easier to deal with. Or: the one where Buck's drawn to Tommy's scars.
🔥 voyage || miss_tessa carlos reyes/tk strand || 1.4k The night before Carlos goes to see his father, and the moments after.
🔥 love from the other side || @fallout-mars carlos reyes/tk strand || 2.4k “Baby, oh my god,” TK replies, the words rushing out. Barely realizing what he’s doing, he manages to abandon the cups on the table over the hospital bed, moving to his husband. He’s glad he has enough hindsight—or paramedic instincts—to go to his uninjured side, because his first response is to help steady Carlos. He’s fine on his feet, but TK does it anyway, just to feel helpful. “What are you doing up?” he asks as he leads Carlos back to his bed. “You really shouldn’t be up, baby. I thought I could leave you alone for five minutes without you walking around.” Carlos says nothing until he’s back in bed, groaning softly as he lies down. TK follows, hovering over him so he can fluff up the pillow Carlos puts his head on, and that’s when Carlos sighs.
🔥 Campbell’s Soup for the Soon-to-Be Ranger Daddy’s Soul || cyrusbreeze carlos reyes/tk strand || 3.7k Carlos reflects on the possibility of raising Jonah with TK. Ranger Campbell and his family offer a surprising amount of clarity.
🔥 We can make it out (right?) || BatThatBites mateo chavez/nancy gillian || 2.7k Nancy didn’t expect to have her hands sticky with her boyfriend’s blood. Mateo didn’t expect to be bleeding out in a warehouse fire. They both didn’t expect an asteroid to be hurtling towards Austin
🔥 looking forward to the future || @fallout-mars carlos reyes/tk strand || 1.5k Glancing over his shoulder, he looks into the empty backseat of their truck. He stretches a little, careful not to strain himself or his stitches, then gestures behind him with one hand. “You think we’ll be able to get a car seat in here?” Meeting TK’s eye, he gets a blank stare in return. “What?” “A car seat,” Carlos repeats. “It’s good we ended up with this. There’s no way we’d fit one in the Camaro. In fact, we’d be violating multiple traffic offences if we did.”
🔥 you can breathe now || @decafdino carlos reyes/tk strand || 1.7k He gets the call while he's at work, because of course he does. Of course the universe decides that something terrible is going to happen in the middle of a shift. Well, fuck the universe. That's TK's philosophy.
🔥 I can't explain what's up with me today || @neversleepuntilfive carlos reyes/tk strand || 1.3k "Hey baby, are you okay?” TK quietly asks his boyfriend, who is sitting on their couch with his head slumped against the armrest. He just came home from his long shift. Carlos doesn’t answer him immediately, contemplating if he can gather his strength and push through it so TK isn’t worried. The truth is the day was horrible. He doesn’t even know why. Carlos usually gets up with the sun. But today, he doesn't. He's feeling terrible and can't think of a reason why. There is no reason as far as he is concerned.
🔥 Not your fault but mine || Liv_lily carlos reyes/tk strand || 13k TK stood just outside the recovery room they’d wheeled Carlos into, leaning heavily against the wall. There’d been a never-ending stream of medical professionals going in and out since the surgeon had let them know that everything went well, that a full recovery could be expected with time. He squeezes shaking hands into fists and tries to control his breathing, tries to stop the weight on his chest from collapsing in. He feels shaky and nauseous, panic crawling up his spine. Deep breaths, four count in through your nose. Hold four counts. Four count out your through your mouth. He tries to match his breathing to the slow beeping of the vital signs monitor, tries to take comfort in the steady rhythm. He should go into the room.
🔥 in our reflections of one another (we will start something new) || cyrusbreeze carlos reyes/tk strand || 212k (SERIES). Four years before the events of the pilot, Carlos and TK met in a bar in New York City. Their intense one night stand resulted in more than just a lasting impression. When TK arrives in Austin, both Carlos’ and TK’s worlds are rocked to their core and the impact of their night together has ripples that will last for the rest of their lives.
🔥 I am sorry for your loss || carlando_addict carlos reyes/tk strand || 2.3k TK dies and Carlos tries to process what his future will look like without the love of his life.
🔥 Faithless Plea || lonechronicles evan buckley/eddie diaz || 8.2k “I have done everything I was supposed to and still my life has fallen apart, and been ripped to shreds. I, I don’t know how much more I have left in me. You have taken everything from me. You can not have him too. You can’t take him away from me too. Please, please, don’t take him away too. Give Buck back to me because I cannot survive this, I cannot survive anything without him.” His voice was loud, not yelling, but loud enough that if someone had come outside they’d hear a voice. “I don’t even know if I believe in you but here I am, asking, begging, praying, a faithless plea if you will, just, please. Please, for the love of everything that you stand for, bring him back to me. I don’t survive this if he doesn’t make it.”
🔥 Him || lonechronicles evan buckley/eddie diaz || 5k He’s trapped in his head. The lyrics eating at him from every corner of his being. Religion and God and the sins of loving another man, the story vivid in his mind. A man raised on faith, feeling lost and disconnected. Trying to find himself, to understand himself, while feeling like that removes him from everything he's been taught to believe in. Feeling like connecting to himself will rip him away from everything that he knows, alienates him from his family, leaves him heartbroken and alone. So he hides. Hides himself, shelves his feelings and pushes through with what he’s meant to do. There’s a path perfectly laid out for him and it’s safer to follow it. It’s easier. He loses himself but everything else in his life stays intact, and that might just be enough. At least it is for a while.
🔥 you will get a sentimental feeling when you hear voices singing || @smilingbuckley evan buckley/eddie diaz || 2k Buck mopes, has a conversation with Bobby, and goes to a charity event.
🔥 a wolf without a foot || @screamlet evan buckley/tommy kinard || 34k Tommy wants to find his way back to Buck, but he has to find a way through himself first.
🔥 They Can't Take That Away From Me || @rdng1230 evan buckley/tommy kinard || 3.5k Tommy dabs the corners of his mouth with a napkin and gets up from the table, going over to the record player. “Is it wrong that I kinda like that there’s these gaps in your musical knowledge?” Tommy sighs, slipping a record out of the sleeve and placing it on the turn table. “You teach me so much, it’s nice to be able to show you things too. Makes me feel like I’m listening to things for the first time.” Buck feels his heart swell three sizes. He still feels like Tommy’s the one instructing him most of the time. And here comes his boyfriend calling him the teacher. He has a sneaking suspicion his love for this man will never stop growing.
🔥 Shafted || @sunnywithachanceofbi sal deluca/tommy kinard || 6.1k When the 118 are called to rescue a group of employees trapped in an elevator shaft, the power goes out again mid-rescue, leading one of the crew to get hurt.
🔥 100 Days of Henren || @theclaravoyant hen wilson/karen wilson || 4k (ongoing drabble collection). A series of 118-word drabbles centred on Hen, Karen and/or both. Written for 118dailydrabbles hiatus challenge.
🔥 Frost & Found || @sunnywithachanceofbi evan buckley/tommy kinard || 13k Two years after losing his husband (Sal), Tommy magically brings a handsome snowman (Buck) to life! Through his naïveté, the snowman helps Tommy to laugh, feel and love again, as the two fall for each other just in time for the holidays...and before he melts. ☃️
🔥 proof of god in your soup || cardiacsweetheart evan buckley/eddie diaz || 13.5k “God, we’re too old for this.” “What, love confessions?” Buck asks, just to be annoying. Eddie glares at him. “Not what I meant, but sure.” Or: Buck thinks he was born to be left behind. Eddie proves him wrong.
🔥 sell your fear and leave me standing here || @redgoldblue evan buckley/tommy kinard || 12.8k Buck bakes, has sex, and goes to gay bingo. Tommy wallows, gets told off, and wallows some more. Eventually, they kiss again.
🔥 The "Tommy Writes Hotshots Fanfic" Series || @herrmannhalsteadproduction evan buckley/tommy kinard || 7.7k Tommy gets sucked into the Hotshots fandom. (It's Karen and Maddie's fault.)
🔥 Chasing Fires || @thatmexisaurusrex evan buckley/tommy kinard || 150k 24-year-old Tommy Kinard meets 19-year-old Evan Buckley as Evan tries to steal food at a grocery store. Tommy decides to let Evan crash at his place until Evan figures out what his next steps are, giving Evan the same help someone had given Tommy when he had been kicked out of his house years ago.
🔥 our secret moments in a crowded room (they've got no idea about me and you) || @speaknowbuckley evan buckley/eddie diaz || 13.3k Professional Baseball Player Eddie Diaz and Professional Football Player Evan "Buck" Buckley have been married for the past six years, not that anyone outside of their close circle of friends and family knows that. But after they're photographed together and the internet starts going wild with sleuthing and conspiracy theories about their relationship, they're forced to consider whether or not the time may be right to come out publicly.
🔥 comeback of the year || @ambernotember evan buckley/tommy kinard || 5.1k Casey distracted him with stories of baby eagles and a dispensary hostage situation while Tommy drank his whiskey and worked his way towards telling Casey what had happened with Evan.
🔥 with a little help from your (best) friend || @exhaustedpirate evan buckley/tommy kinard || 1.9k “Why aren’t you wearing pants?” (or, what happened after buck and eddie sat down the couch)

I love the AU of Luxy being WorstThrusts child while Helen being Bryce's half sister (same father), because
Them at Thanksgiving at the family dinner, Luxy and Bryce going on about his business and Helen being so done with her niece because the dildos that she confiscated from the students at her school are all Luxys, Bobby and Helen having a whole roasting session every minute they interact, Bryce trying to get into everyones life even though everyones (minus Bobbys) business relates to her companies anyways, giving advice that mostly just involve manipulation and violence which doesn't even help with Luxy or Helens job (though the former person still takes to consideration), Helen being the one who has to deal with the horny couple the most while Luxy just sits and pretends he's an orphan.
I also imagine that Bryce goes to Helen to talk shit about her husband and child if/when she doesn't wanna rant to Donovan, but Helen would get sick of it cause Bryce'll just get over it a minute after she's vented and go back to being the loving wife/seemingly careless mother that she is.
And Bobby terrorizing Helens school on purpose, out of spite.
Just a random day, Bryce will visit Luxy on his work day and give him some funds for shooting a commercial for one of her (sex) products, while also casually catching up on his life.
Bobby and Luxy get along splendidly. A bit weirder on Luxys side, but still. They wouldn't go terrorizing children together or anything violent but Luxy would definitely have a good chat with his father over lunch or a break from work.
Helen wouldn't initiate a hang out with her sister, hell, she'd probably would only reach out to her once a month if it was a good month, but somehow Bryce is still able to catch up on her life.
Idk I've been thinking bout them a lot.

I'm still obsessing over the Fact that Donovan can literally carry both, Bryce TankThrust and Bobby Worst, at the same time, easily. Man's canonically a robot, but still, a sexy, strong robot.

https://x.com/haveawish/status/1863288745966911902?s=46&t=sjzE9yJDPIIrx07d8gwl7g delusion.
How is it that I, a non-Twitter dude, already know who it is you're talking about whenever you send me yer damn Twitter links. It's like 3 or 4 of them, on namesight. They seem to be the most vocal on there.
Anyway, let's see what Bobbie has for us today
Tumblr media
But what was her conclusion?
Tumblr media
All of the crit against the boys came after it came out and all of the touch-starved fangirls went ape over Jenna (and Emma). 100% none of them expected the "love triangle" to fall flat, but that was neither White nor Doohan's fault. It was the writing.
It's kind of too bad that Wednesday wasn't led on a better path of having more than just one suspect. She made the same mistake (sort of) that Donovan made 30+ years prior when he didn't suspect anything or anyone else but Gomez and that's why Wenovan are made for each other.
I'm hungry.

Have you got some agere headcanons for any Brandon Rogers characters?
i got a couple
Bryce tankthrust-
-she is a flip with a caregiver lean
-when she is little though she goes to around 1-4 and Bobby and Donovan take care of her
-she is a kinda strict caregiver but she doesn't have many rules
-she will be carrying her little around the office on her hip while she yells at her employees
-she is very protective of the people she cares about and will actually kill anyone who hurt her little
-hates to admit it but she has a soft spot for her little
-when she's regressed though she is a total sweetheart, she lets her guard down and just becomes a little angel of a baby
-while she does try to behave she tends to be a bit mischievous which Bobby encourages
Bobby worst-
-he is a flip with a little lean
-when he's little he regresses from 2-6 or to an moody teen sometimes and other times to a few months old
-he is a little brat when he's little and he will be causing as much chaos as possible
-he ends up in timeout often
-when he's little Bryce usually takes care of her but when she can't Donovan takes care of him
-he loves to mess with Donovan most of the time
-when he is being a caregiver though he's more of a fresh out of jail uncle or big brother instead of a father figure
-he is very goofy though and will do almost anything to make his little laugh even if it's something odd
-he encourages his little to misbehave all the time
-he isn't a strict caregiver but his main rule is for his little to stay away from all his grown up things and weapons
Donovan:
-he is a caregiver to both Bobby and Bryce
-he takes his job as a caregiver seriously and he doesn't tolerate bad behavior
-but if the little ones are just playing and don't mean to be bad then he'll let it slide
-he is best at bedtimes since he can hold Bobby and Bryce at the same time
-carries a little bag with him everywhere in case Bryce regresses at work
Bla bla the clown:
-he regresses and regresses to around 1 or a bit younger
-Wendy used to be his caregiver but after the... incident he has his friend take care of him
-he is very shy and quiet when regressed and doesn't trust others easily
-he still loves clowns though and has little clown onesies
Arlo (from the magic fun house):
-he regresses to around 2-5
-he is a total brat to everyone
-he needs padding when little and sometimes when big
-he likes to cause a lot of trouble for the others and this usually ends with him in timeout or a sore bottom

Repost- please do!

Don’t:
Ask for face/voice reveal. I won’t until I feel comfortable which won’t be for a long time.

(P.S There is a very large chance I will not write NSFW content about real people(celebrities, friends, family, etc.). If they have addressed their opinion on being sexualized and have said they are not comfortable with it, I will not write NSFW content about them at all. For example, Corpse Husband. Correct me if I’m wrong at all about this, but he has said that he doesn’t like being sexualized- especially by minors and I know not everyone here on tumblr is an actual mature adult so I will write fluff and angst about him but definitely not smut.)

❀    ||      new verses; g.en v && the b.oys
Tumblr media
little is known about maeve before she was seven years old. there are no files, no memories, no proof. her existence seems to start when the donovans adopt her. joe donovan, a high school history teacher, and mary donovan, one of vought's top geneticists, two brilliant and determined people.
the fact she had powers wasn't a surprise, the fact she was a genius also wasn't. she was groomed from the moment she joined family to someday enter into same business, expected to be vought's next brilliant mind.
it wasn't something she wanted, but it was better than the alternative where her powers would be weaponised and used to hurt people.
g.en v:
she relies on her invisibility. maeve already has too many degrees from the outside world, working on her phds part time alongside studying at Godolkin University School of Crimefighting. girl tries to keep purely to herself, with a few select friends, painfully aware of the thinks beyond the surface.
the boy.s:
after her graduation, life only becomes more difficult.
engagement to 'up and coming' star bobby putnam Agent Sculpin is nothing but a nightmare, ending in tragedy with his loss on a mission. she's labelled as a heartbroken widow: and maeve lets the press say what they want.
instead she buries herself in work, using vought's resources to do actual good work in their name, trying to make up for the horrors she knows are going on.

does she plan to spend her life with bobby?  it's likely a terrible sign that her first thought at words is an almost instant oh god no.  "not all relationships have to be forever. and some improve."  her friends adore him:  one too many comments wearing her down - about how out of her league he is, a charmer, not bad looking, popular. and sure she's smart but what else does she have to offer? if even those who claim to care about her are so focussed on how she could never do better... it's left her in confusing waters. it had taken bobby so many times of asking to convince her to go on even the first date - something in her stuck on the feeling that something never quite felt right.
but maybe she's just naive. she's never been loved before, perhaps this is how it's meant to feel, maybe books and films lied and love is as lonely as as everything else in the world seems to be. yet she gently takes books with murmured thanks, taking in his words all the same. her touch is feather light, brief in shaking his.  "maeve. donovan." has she already said it? she's not sure. maeve has never been a party person - they're loud and overwhelming, a sharp opposite to her nature. but the offer seems well intended and surely it can do no harm to try... "I'll do my best to drop by." she assures with a soft nod, settling on softly joking, "if things don't get too wild at the library."
“  sounds  like  you  should  reconsider  if  he  is  the  one  that  you  want  to  spend  your  life  with.  ”  does  he  think  he’ll  marry  bethany?  he  would  like  to  think  that  he  would.  his  father�� approved  of  the  match,  and  he  had  to  politely  remind  him  that  he  was  living  in  modern  times  but  it  was  a  big  responsibility    for  him  to  marry  someone,  especially  to  bring  them  to  the  bateman  family’s  wealth.  “  perhaps  i  do  …  ”  he  pauses  then,  his  facial  expression  is  starting  to  soften,  “  …  robert  is  my  friend,  but  his  values  and  his  opinions  remind  me  too  much  of  my  father,  and  well  …  my  folks  are  divorced  now.  ”  he  is  surprised  at  himself    for  telling  a  stranger  that,  and  he  clears  his  throat. 
“  anyway.  i  may  be  holding  you  back  from  your  studies,  but  i  would  really  like  to  learn  more.  ”  he  hasn’t  got  the  patience  for  a  phd.  he  didn’t  want  to  be  at  college  but  harvard  offered  him  a  bit  of  freedom  from  his  parents  who  were  at  each  other’s  throats,  even  after  the  divorce,  and  he  had  his  own  independence.  he  hands  her  books  back,  pretending  to  look  a  bit  sad.  “  i  should  have  introduced  myself.  i’m  patrick.  patrick  bateman.  ”  he  offers  his  hand  out  to  her  to  take.  “  there’s  a  party  tonight  at  fifteen  west  avenue  if  you’d  like  to  come.  ”

Babylon: The Over The Top Movie by Damien Chazelle
Tumblr media
“Babylon” is Damien Chazelle’s salute to the movies, following on the heels of Sam Mendes’  similar homage to the film in “Empire of Light.” I’ve never met Sam Mendes, although I admire his work. But I met Damian Chazelle, when he came to Chicago for the premiere of “La La Land” at the 52nd Chicago International Film Festival on October 13, 2016. Damien Chazelle is a genuine, personable, interesting young man. Once again he has partnered with longtime collaborator Justin Hurwitz (who also did the music for “La La Land” and “Whiplash”). The "Babylon" score was very reminiscent of the music from “La La Land.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5muQK7CuFtY Babylon attempts to depict what Hollywood might have been like back when the silent movie era was giving way to talkies. It is both an homage to those chaotic times, beginning in 1926, and a criticism of the excesses of Hollywood. In fact, the opening 20 minutes, depicts an elephant being transported to an orgy hosted by someone seemingly based on Fatty Arbuckle. The golden shower scene, gross as it is, goes a long way toward illustrating those Hollywood excesses. It’s way over the top. You could say that about the entire film. One of the things that amazes me about this $80 million-dollar stroll down memory lane, is the cast. In addition to Brad Pitt as the male lead and Margot Robbie as the female lead, it seems like there are bit parts for a myriad of actors, both known and unknown. Who were these masked men (and women)? Flea has a part. Eric Roberts---who I interviewed on my WeeklyWilson podcast during the pandemic—plays Margot Robbie’s father. Lukas Haas who played the small boy in “Witness” when he was 9 in the seventies, plays George, Brad Pitt’s best friend.  Tobey Maguire, listed as an executive producer, has a truly hero-destroying role as a gangster. Spike Jonze plays Otto. Michael Dukakis has an uncredited part as a soldier. Anna Chazelle has an uncredited part as Bobbie Hart. Kaia Gerber, the look-alike daughter of Cindy Crawford, has a bit part at some point.  Jovan Adepo plays jazz trumpeter Sidney Palmer. Jean Smart (“Hacks”) plays a composite character based on columnists Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons, Elinor O’Toole. Max Minghella (“The Handmaid’s Tale's Nick Blaine) plays Irving Thalberg. Comedian/actor Jeff Garlin (“Curb Your Enthusiasm”) plays Don Wallach, and Ethan Suplee  (“Remember the Titans” 2000) plays Wilson and spends most of his time onscreen spitting grossly. Manny Liotta plays a P.A. (Production Assistant). This is a very partial list of the surprisingly elaborate cast list. (Hard to stage an orgy without a crowd, I guess.) But the main character whose work in the lead is impressive as Manny Torres is relatively unknown Mexican actor Diego Calva, who comes to the screen in a major part as a complete unknown to U.S. audiences. Calva played a drug lord on Netflix’s “Narcos: Mexico” but, if you missed that, you missed him. He came to his star-making part in much the same way as the fictional Manny Torres: by doing whatever anyone in the movie business needed to be done. Diego Calva reminded me of the “fixer” characters played by Harvey Keitel in “Pulp Fiction” or by Leiv Schreiber in “Ray Donovan.” He has been nominated for a Golden Globe (if that award still means anything.) On an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night television show, Calva shared some behind-the-scenes insights into Babylon and into his own background. Diego learned to speak English specifically for “Babylon.” Calva learned English from playing “Pokemon” video games in Mexico. He confirmed that the chicken in the orgy scene was a great actor.  He also confirmed that they used a chicken puppet for some takes. Diego admitted he was most excited to meet Tobey Maguire since he had been a “Spiderman” fan from a young age. Among other comments the young actor made was this one about the opening orgy scene:  “It was so crazy. I’ve never been surrounded by so many naked people before.” Of his co-star and love interest in the film, Margot Robbie, Diego said:  “She’s always going to do the unexpected. She’s a fearless actress, just full-on energy.  When you’re so tired, she can play it 100 times more." Diego studied at the Centro de Capacitacion Cinematografica in Mexico. He is a talent to watch. The thing that resonated with me---especially since it was quite similar to Sam Mendes’ musings on the movies---were the lines that pin down Chazelle’s feelings about the film. It’s not unique among creative types, whether filmmakers, writers, songwriters, or painters that the work we leave behind gives us a little bit of immortality. Ideally, whatever we have been responsible for as creative artists has been good and it remains long after we are gone. Chazelle scripted one scene, in particular, between Jean Smart and Brad Pitt where she tells the fading screen star “Your time has run out. There is no why. Babylon is bigger than you. No one asks to be left behind.” Telling him how he will live forever on celluloid, the columnist says, “You’ve been given a gift. Be grateful.” Pitt’s character, in an earlier scene, states, “What I do means something to millions of people. For real people, on the ground, it means something.” He then tells Olivia Wilde’s character (Ina) to spare him the pretentious notes on his reading of a script, expressing disgust for those who try to characterize Babylon as “a low art” and, instead, enshrine Ibsen and Strindberg and the theater. The general critical consensus has been bad for the film among both critics and audiences. I understand that, as so many of the scenes are well over-the-top and, I’m sure, offensive to some. The opening scene with the elephant and the elephant dung is but one example. There is a later one involving Margot Robbie at a party rejecting the instructions to be “elegant". She tries but fails, to “act” respectable since her original nickname was “the wild child.” Now, she is to eschew her Jersey roots and act much more well-behaved. She rejects that advice. She literally smears food all over her face, insults everyone at the party, and, ultimately, projectile vomits both outside the house and inside on a newly-purchased expensive rug. It’s a bit much. Between the descent into the depths of Los Angeles that Tobey Maguire insists Manny and his companion must take, the elephant scene, the vomiting, and the golden shower scene at the orgy, the film was just too far over the top. Babylon cost $80 million.  When you see the voluminous cast list, it isn’t surprising. Not only does it have two of the biggest current stars in Hollywood (Pitt and Robbie) but it seems to have everyone else who might have been hanging around. My favorite was the inclusion of Eric Roberts, who is undoubtedly going to hold the record for most American movie appearances ever. Eric has a scene with a snake, which is pretty funny. However, a lot of the scenes were not funny and, instead, screamed gross. You get the feeling that the creative license to try new things led to throwing everything but the kitchen sink into the movie. Another factor that swelled the film’s length from a normal hour and a half to over three hours was the emphasis on the music.  Chazelle has highlighted the music of collaborator Justin Hurwitz. Although the trumpet player character Sidney Palmer (Jovan Adepo) admitted that he did not really play the trumpet, the film focuses on the band and its performances too long. The movie would have benefited from some judicious editing and shorter musical interludes. The performances, especially those of Pitt, Robbie, and Diego Calva, are good. The plot, supposedly based on the 1959 Kenneth Anger book "Hollywood Babylon," was outrageous, but many of the stories in that novel have been debunked. The cinematography by Linus Sandgren is great and the set decoration by Anthony Carlino deserves mention. Opening on Christmas Day against "Avatar" might have been a questionable move. Chazelle even pays tribute to many iconic films in a final montage of clips from various movies, including "Avatar," and those flickering images even caused a warning to be posted outside our theater. Babylon is too long. Some of the musical pieces could have been shortened.  Removing some of the scenes that depict how difficult it was for silent movie actors to learn the new way of making talkies (by doing a takeover and over and over) could have been omitted. Grossing out the audience over and over succeeded, to the film's detriment.  The sets and costumes and cinematography are great. "Babylon" was a great creative effort. It just didn't work.

She 100% finds his weird attention to details adorable- but tbh, I feel like if Bobby stalked her she’s be like ‘awwww! Sweetheart! You wanted to follow me? That’s so cute!’ Because she’s a lil freakazoid and I love her
You can lie and think she’s the smartest woman alive all you want, I’m not gonna stop you, but yes— Bobby talks too much and she’s just so very in love with him and loves hearing him be passionate about something
I too love those kinds of relationships (of course within reason, and tbh mostly in fiction), and yes, some people do still use ‘based’, and yes I am based as fuck, thank you for noticing (it’s true- you’re correct- maybe even between 4 of them if you include Gloria, though I feel like she’s more likely to think it’s a lil weird but still probably kinda down)
Oh and Bryce can definitely hold him, but ya know- sometimes you wanna feel small and dainty in the arms of someone just. Much bigger than you- and Donovan fulfils that need Bobby has but is unlikely to admit to anyone other than his wife and his boyfriend, I’m very glad I could win you over to the bobbyvan side (and tbh same, I definitely ship it romantic because Bobby does deserve a long term boyfriend, but I can see the material for a QPR)
It is very confusing- I think both are kinda implied? Cause I’m the montage it obviously shows him being there often as a nuisance, but through it being such a big deal when she arrives, not being there since Bryce joined, and seemingly only arriving because someone died? It’s confusing but it kinda means you can interpret either way lol, but yeah I also think they definitely met at some point (and I stand by Bobby having an office crush on him)
Yes- yes- the fucking ‘im fine baby’ line makes me melt, he does call her mommy 100%, he also calls her miss/mistress, also daddy? She doesn’t get why but she vibes with it, also god/goddess, ya know, the vibes, she’s his personal deity and it’s adorable.
Gloria and Bryce are friends to enemies to friends to lovers, their relationship is incredibly chill, I feel like I’m leaning towards them developing such a deep and specific friendship that it just turns into a QPR (Gloria’s probably the one to explain to her ‘btw this is what our relationship basically is, it’s queer platonic, it’s like besties but more’ and Bryce doesn’t understand but she just goes with it because it feels right)
Also don’t worry about taking forever lol, it’s fine lol, I don’t mind! :))) illness of the mind (and body, idk which one you’re referring to) can do that so don’t feel bad about the brain mush lol, we vibe
this might be a controversial take but fuck it
drawing any brandon character white or super light skinned weirds me out
