is it new years yet?

--

(luke cooper x fem!reader) can christmas parties still be fun while heartbroken? kinda.

content: fluff, underage drinking, kissing

a/n: merry christmas and happy holidays! here's a little present for you all (loosely based on 2x10 of the office and 'is it new years yet' by sabrina carpenter <3)

--

the dunder mifflin christmas party... was proving to be as boring as you expected it to be. the walls were half-heartedly draped in limp tinsel and cheap decorations that screamed 'we tried, but not really.' and as your aunt phyllis dutifully dragged you from co-worker to co-worker, you were forced to engage in the most awkward small talk. some of her colleagues were polite, while others were... interesting to say the least. the second you were done making the rounds you scurried off, finding a secluded desk in the back a perfect hiding spot from the draining festivities.

finally alone, you checked your phone for what felt like the hundredth time. scrolling through instagram, you were greeted with another post from your ex looking infuriatingly cozy in matching holiday pajamas with someone new.

"so which one of these sad-sacks are you related to?"

you nearly dropped your phone as you snapped your head up, meeting the dark, curious eyes of an unfamiliar curly-haired boy. his demeanor made him appear as though he only wandered into this tragically depressing event for the free cookies.

"uh, phyllis," you replied, thrown off by his sudden appearance. where the hell had he come from?

"venus? no way." he snickered.

"phyllis," you corrected, unsure how he even got venus from that. "she’s my—"

before you could finish, the boy’s response was cut short by the arrival of your aunt’s boss, michael, who swaggered over—santa hat crooked, digital camera in hand. he threw an arm around the boy’s shoulder.

"luuuuke! lukey luke, my duke!" michael exclaimed, with sickening enthusiam "sneaking around, huh? making out in the back room? classic christmas partayy"

you looked over at luke, who simply let out a nervous chuckle. "no we're not-"

"picture!" before either of you could articulate your protest, the flash went off, blinding you momentarily. "you guys keep it up and you might end up on the front page of the newsletter- naughty naughty kids!" michael beamed at his impromptu masterpiece, ruffling luke’s hair like a proud uncle before wandering off, humming an off-key christmas carol in search of his next victim.

"well, that’s who i'm related to"

"hmm?" you murmured absentmindedly, distracted by another notification. your ex again—this time, a family picture, the both of them grinning like they’d been handpicked for a hallmark card. "yeah uh-"

there was a sudden burst of cheering from the main party room, loud enough to shake the flimsy tinsel on the walls. you and luke exchanged a glance before heading over to investigate.

michael was at the center of the commotion, grinning like a man who’d just won the lottery, surrounded by a precarious pyramid of vodka bottles—fifteen of them, to be exact. it was hard to say where he’d gotten them or how he’d managed to sneak them in, but judging by the energy in the room, no one was asking questions.

the party had clearly turned a corner. people were singing, dancing, and chattering animatedly, the earlier awkwardness replaced by a chaotic, boozy camaraderie.

it sucked.

not the party itself, but the fact that while everyone else seemed to be having a good time you were still wrestling with the dull ache of everything you’d been trying to ignore. with a resigned sigh, you strode over to the pyramid and swiped one of the bottles, ignoring michael’s thumbs-up and exaggerated wink as you made your way back to luke.

he was leaning against the desk where you’d left him, arms crossed, a faintly amused expression on his face.

"i hate christmas."

"you ever watch die hard?" luke asked with soft laughter, eyeing you as you unscrewed the cap with a little more force than necessary.

"die hard?" you repeated, the vodka scorching its way down your throat as you took a swig. at least it distracted you from the other kind of burn. "like the bruce willis movie?"

"yeah. the bruce willis christmas classic" he said, leaning back like he was delivering a hot take.

"oh… i guess i forgot about that part" you handed him the bottle, watching as he tipped it back for a drink.

"forgot? it’s literally what the plot revolves around," luke lowered the bottle, giving you a look like you’d just failed a pop quiz.

"yeah okay whatever" you shrugged. "how old are you again?"

"twenty," he replied, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand.

"perfect. i’m going to kiss you now."

his eyes widened, but only for a second. "what? uh—cool."

you leaned in, closing the gap between you, but just as your lips met his, a blinding flash lit up the room.

Sydney's search for connection.

The more I rewatch The Bear I can't tell if I'm overthinking or if this show is so layered it's near perfection.

I love the themes of mothers, nourishment, generational trauma, loss, showing up for people, caring for people, mental health. I could carry on...

But I love this small moment in 2x03 Sundae and its theme surrounding mothers, loss, and needing others. We're told that Syd wants to make up for a failed business throughout the show but beneath that is another longing.

This scene tells me about Syd's need for connection. But being with people requires vulnerability which is one of Syd's struggles.

Based on what the show tells us, Syd doesn't have the best experience being vulnerable with others. There are always awkward but funny moments when Syd connects with people.

Since she's experienced loss at such a young age, it's almost foreign to her to sympathize, not that she can't sympathize she just doesn't express it properly. The first moment in 1x02 when she awkwardly apologizes to Richie about Mikey's death. The second moment in 2x02 Pasta is when she says to Marcus, "It was just a hat?"

A third moment dismisses Carmy's empathy for her mother's passing. Syd's lesson is that being surrounded by people is sharing a loss together. I'm sure in season 3 with Marcus' mom's passing, this is her chance to be there for someone.

We won't always have the most rewarding experience with people but we have to keep trying.

We can't blame Syd for such awkwardness. She's an only child and alone is a safety net. The opposite of having a psychopath behind her yelling, pushing, screaming...

But the safety of being alone fails and she's back to working with people again. This time she works for Carmy. It's a risk but she has ambition and urgency. To erase a past failure. To change the pattern. Because being surrounded by people can make her successful- it fills a void.

What I love about Sydney is that there's more of an awareness. She's aware she has to change a pattern, and be part of a team. Sydney tells her dad in 2x02 that she's at a different place, not alone, in his house. She has a partner. Sydney has a chance to be vulnerable with Carmy and, despite its challenges, she is willing to do so.

But like Carmy, her mental health isn't the best. As the show progresses and what 2x10 gave us I hope we dive deeper into Sydney's head.

Costume Spotlight: Guillermo's Sweaters in Season 2

At long last, I'm returning to the sweater pile to do a deep dive on our favorite knit-clad vampire slayer, Guillermo de la Cruz. In season one, Guillermo wore sixteen different sweaters across the season's ten episodes. In my first post I did an overview of the different types of knits and some of the little character nods I noticed in the later episodes.

Guillermo wears fourteen different sweaters across season 2, with roughly half of those being new sweaters for the season--there's one I can't quite decide if it's a new sweater or the same one he wore in 1x02 to the city council meeting, but in different lighting. That being said, someone give me his thrifting skills (and storage skills)! This is also the season where he debuts his iconic slayer trench coat and stake bandolier, but I'll do a separate post on those.

Season two's sweaters are heavy on the Fair Isle knits and cardigans, with many appearances of a new fuzzy red striped cardigan that debuts in 2x01 (pictured above). I almost think of this as Guillermo's character development cardigan, because of when he wears it throughout the season:

2x01- Just before he slays his first vampire assassin of the season.

2x08 - When he tells Nandor about Celeste's offer and then leaves.

2x09 - Throughout the episode, where we see him taking a break for the first time and refusing to listen to Nadja trying to get him to end it early, when he finds a way out of the room of doors for himself, Nadja, and Colin Robinson, and when he comes up with a compromise to save Laszlo, Colin Robinson, and Nandor from the witches.

2x10 - At his mom's apartment when he's talking about why he left, and to the Theatre when he slays all the vampires and rescues Nandor, Laszlo, Nadja, and Colin Robinson.

He also debuts a fourth Coogi sweater in 2x01, this one a vertical striped pattern with dark navy and turquoise elements.

Yet another new addition to the sweater collection is this gorgeous brown and red Fair Isle v-neck pullover with a solid brown collar and cuffs. It's similar to a sweater he wears in season 1, but better fitted and with a nicer pattern.

Another noticeable new addition is this blue and gold Fair Isle v-neck from 2x06:

I want to see if there are more appearances of this one in later seasons, as it only appears in this one episode of season 2 as far as I can tell.

There's this geometric gray and black mosaic knit cardigan he wears in 2x07 to consider:

And of course, the iconic yellow cardigan and rainbow turtleneck combo from 2x08:

This sweater is such a departure from everything else he wears! So much brighter, while also being less dated. Most of Guillermo's sweaters (the fuzzy cardigan that screams 2013 aside) look like something from the 80s or 90s found in a vintage shop...or a grandparent's attic. This cardigan stands out as a very clearly modern take on a retro style (I'd say late 60s/early 70s), like something you'd get from ModCloth, and is a thinner material than most of his others as well.

Is he dressing to fit into his new household? Or is this the kind of thing Guillermo would rather wear, in an environment where he feels more comfortable and supported? We never see this sweater again, even as Guillermo gains more power and respect in Nandor's household, and we never see him wear anything like it again, either, so it's hard to say.

Lastly, there's this Intarsia knit cardigan in brown and green that appears for this hilarious brief moment in 2x10:

Season 1 Sweater Appearances

In addition to his new sweaters, Guillermo reprises several sweaters from season 1. His gray Fair Isle cardigan from 1x05 and 1x10:

This heavily textured Coogi cardigan from 1x06-1x08, as well as 1x10:

The first Coogi (or Coogi-esque) sweater from season 1, with the horizontal pattern and red accents:

The lovely bird-patterned Fair Isle from 1x02 that will continue to show up all the way through season 5, and even in a promo photo from season 6:

And this thing, which I still can't decide if it's a brand-new sweater in different lighting, or the sweater Guillermo wore to the city council meeting in 1x02:

I don't have a ton of information on knitting styles to include this time, a I covered a lot of that ground in the season 1 post, but I do think it's interesting that Guillermo in this season wears some more vivid colors (the addition of more reds for him this season is especially intriguing), better fitting sweaters, and higher quality ones. While of course this could simply be due to a bigger budget for the show's sophomore season, I also think it's part of an ongoing evolution of Guillermo's style over the course of the show.

As he gains more confidence, it begins to show in his wardrobe. He even unbuttons that top button on his shirt a few times this season! And as he comes into his own more and more as a powerful vampire slayer, I think his clothes echo that as well.

What's your favorite season 2 Guillermo sweater? And would you be interested in a chart showing all the appearances of each sweater over the course of the show? Or is that just me.

No spoilers past 2x12 if possible folks!

2x10 – Merry Ex-Mas thoughts

Well… this ep made me scream for a couple of very different reasons.

The emergencies this ep were suitably Christmas-y which was appropriate to watch in December. I don’t know what it is about Christmas lights that incite war cries in neighbours but it was a fun opening.

Maddie’s emergency with that poor worker stuck in a box and nearly getting shipped out was also fun. Creative and I’m glad he survived.

Chris’ Christmas wish being to see Shannon again was very sweet. I’m glad Eddie made it happen but seriously, what are these two playing at? They’re now sleeping together again and sneaking around. They reminisce about things with Chris but tellingly none of those events actually happened when both of them were there at the same time. I’m not sure of the timeline for these two. I don’t know how long they’ve been married but let’s say Eddie was in service for 2/3 years, Shannon’s been absent for 2. Even if they’ve been married for 7/8 years, they’ve spent nearly as long apart as they have together.

I’m not just saying this because I enjoy Buddie’s chemistry but I can’t see Eddie and Shannon lasting long. They’re both very argumentative.

Speaking of Buddie though, the writers really went out of their way to slap the viewers around the head with a literal Christmas elf and said, “look at them, they’re a family!”. Adorable scene. I got cavities.

Bobby and Athena had me screaming first. I’m not sure if it’s because they’re an older couple or what but I enjoy the lack of world ending relationship drama between Bobby and Athena. They’re not on the same page? They work to get themselves on the same page. It’s refreshing. They both work hard to see other’s points of view and Athena even confided in Michael who was able to offer her some perspective. And they’re engaged!! Cheers all around!!!

OK, so I had a little giggle when I saw Brian Hallisay appear as “Jason” with Chim in the Christmas tree yard because I know he’s married to Jennifer Love Hewitt so I thought (naively!) it was a fun thrown in scene. Then he appeared again. And then came the final reveal with him actually being Doug, not “Jason”. Cue me screaming wildly at the TV (again).

AH!! How long has Doug been hanging around that he recognises Chim? Did Doug just see him with Buck (who I’m guessing he recognised) and saw an opportunity or was he following Buck in the hopes of finding Maddie? Or does he already know where Maddie is and he’s been following her?

Ugh. Not Good! I was busy cooing over how cute and sweet Chim and Maddie are and then BAM! Flashback reveal. No more cooing.

I am very not OK after this ep. I am very, very concerned and might be slightly freaking out...

what are most optional episodes where dean would knock up sam? 👀

AHHHHH okay okay, obviously i would say pre-series when sam first wanted to leave for stanford, but i feel like that goes without saying...

1x11 Scarecrow this is one of their first real big fights, and i feel like with this one dean is so angry and just pissed off that the thought of sam having a reason to stay (being pregnant with dean's baby) is so appealing, and it crossed his mind for sure, but he wouldn't follow through this time because of how frustrated he is at sam

2x3 Bloodlust there's this one scene in here where sam dean and gordon are all at a bar, and sam says he's gonna head back to the motel and dean says something along the lines of "sammy remind me to beat that buzzkill outta you later" and the look they share, the look dean gives sam, just screams i wanna knock you up, like when dean goes back later he's gonna flip sam over and put him to use, give him a reason to stay, to care, to never leave dean. something about knocking him up and sam becoming an attic-wife sort of character is so interesting. like the baby is sucking the energy, resistance, and stubbornness from sam.

2x9 Croatoan (one of my all time favorite episodes, season two is pure gold) this one i just love because if sam was already knocked up in this one, WOW the emotions they'd be feeling, sam feeling like he needs to sacrifice himself, but also knowing he'd be taking their baby with him, but part of him is glad because he resents dean for baby trapping him, but at the same time part of dean is inside him, he'd be killing dean his big brother he would be hurting dean, and god i just know that dean would be telling him he can't, that he can't take the baby too cuz it's the only part of sammy that he'll have after sam's gone... lots of mixed emotions with this one. i think dean wanting to kill all three of them together would be a crazy sick and twisted moment of deranged familial love and sacrifice, and i'm so here for it.

2x10 Hunted and 2x11 Playthings simply for how fuckable sammy looks in these. but also sam finding out about what john told dean, his shift from anger to frustration to pure desperation. i think, especially in playthings, dean would want to give sam a reason to hold on, something to look forward to, something to keep him here, to keep him with dean.

2x19 Folsom Prison Blues another iconic episode, i think dean would wanna sneak sammy away, fuck him quick and nasty, knock him up and claim him, put a leash on the collar he's already wearing, show everyone else not to fuck with his boy.

2x22 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part 2 i think, again, if sam was pregnant here, and dean had to loose both his sammy and their baby, i think he'd be fucking sick. he would find a way to cut into sam and save the baby, then stitch sam back up and lick his wounds clean.

throughout all of season three, i think dean wouldn't even want to try knocking up sam because he knows he's dying soon. he wouldn't want to leave that behind, he wouldn't want to even think about missing out on that life with sam, but sam would beg for it. i think sam would be on his knees pleading for dean to fuck him and get him pregnant just so he could have a piece of dean left after he dies.

the majority of season four, dean doesn't think about it much because of how fucked up everything is, and i think that the events going on are too uncertain, too confusing, and the dynamic between sam and dean is so rocky and fragile that its something he'd put on the back burner. the demon blood pissed dean off so much that he wouldn't want sam to have his baby because of how fucked up he thinks sam is, almost as a punishment, he would withhold that part of him from sam, that kind of life, especially if sam wanted it, too. but at the same time part of him wants to show ruby sam is his, to show sam that he belongs to dean...

4x21 When the Levee Breaks is prime fuck sam and knock him up time, tie that boy down, show him who he belongs to, show him what his purpose is in this life, to be with dean, to be dean's.

season five is hard because, once again, things between the boys are so rocky and unstable, dean is so pissed, sam is so broken, they are both at odds, and dean can't even look sam in the eye. but, i think sam would be begging for dean to just touch him again because he wants things to go back to the way they were, he wants dean to forgive him, to love him, to want him like he used to. we also see a progression of dean starting to yearn for the apple pie life, and we see sam straying from it. they are wandering in opposite directions, craving different things, knowing their reality wouldn’t allow it, sam accepting that truth and being okay with it, and dean hating that fact, resenting it, wanting so badly to change the course of their lives but every attempt fails. i think dean wants to be a family with sam, but he knows he can’t have it, and by 5x14 My Bloody Valentine we see it start to fester and show itself in dean’s violent tendencies and outbursts, his out-of-character anger at things that don’t normally upset him…

-

imma keep it at the kripke era bcuz i haven't analyzed post-kripke dean and sam enough yet. i'm only on my third rewatch and this is the first time i'm watching the show through a wincest perspective! (i'm a retired destiel fan) so maybe i will add to this in the future!!

tl;dr the numbers in Infinity Train makes no sense and makes this scientist want to scream cry and throw up

Being an astronomer that is also a fan of Infinity Train honestly gives me psychic damage when it comes to how absolute bonkers this number system is. For most of my life after Book 3 I have chosen to ignore it for the sake of my sanity but I cannot any longer.

For example, let's take a look at these two screenshots:

So in the screenshot on the left, Grace is something like 13-14, and on the right, she's 17-18 or something. The point is, this is roughly 4 or so years apart right?

Now take a closer look at Grace's number on the right screenshot:

So there's around 15 visible digits. Which would mean that her number is in the 10^15 range, or a quadrillion, right? Nope.

There's digits all around her arm. So let's use our physics brains and assume her arm is a perfect cylinder, and that 3 digits spans the diameter of this cylinder. So with grade school math we know the circumference is pi*diameter, so actually she would have 3 times as many digits on her arm at that moment.

3*15 = 45

her number is in the order of 10^45.

10^45. One with 45 zeroes behind it.

Do you KNOW how MASSIVE that number is?????

BUT WAIT you say, her arm isn't a perfect cylinder, her wrist is smaller than her elbow. Fine. 10^40 then.

Coincidentally, when I made a number glove for my Simon cosplay, it also ended up having roughly 40 digits on it, but I digress.

LET'S PUT 10^40 INTO PERSPECTIVE.

This is the Sun.

In terms of kilograms, the sun weighs 2x10^30 kilograms. So again, that is 2 with THIRTY ZEROES behind it.

But if Grace's number at the beginning of Book 3 was a mass in kilograms, it would be at least ten orders of magnitude greater than that. Not ten times. Ten orders of magnitude. In other words, TEN BILLION TIMES THE MASS OF THE SUN.

Do you know what is ten billion times the mass of the Sun?!

THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD

So, Infinity Train writers, you are telling me, that in the span of four years. Grace's number went from 702 to A FUCKING GALAXY SIZED NUMBER?!

Okay chief. Sure. Why not.
