#shes not thinking of elvis

"rancher, huh?" kaj takes a minute to envision it, smile small. "i can see that. animals love the gentle ones. you'd be good at it." rex may growl at him now and then 'cause of the beret, but the courier has seen the dog tail craig around the 38 with love in his eyes. kaj thinks craig must remind rex of his first owner. "what happened to 'em? your folks, i mean."

he wants to know about her? she pauses, realizing she has nothing prepared. shit. for once, boone has kaj on the back foot. in that moment of hesitation, truth swims to the surface.

"...my parents traveled around when i was young. i loved it. there were these...massive canyons, full of green. when it rains, they flood quick and you can drown, if you ain't careful." every sinew of kaj's body is angry at her for telling the truth, but once she starts, it pours.

"when i left my parents, i was...just a stupid kid, really. i should've died. but this woman, kim...she took me in. she's the one i learned all this from. we used to come up this way and take samples of the soil, the trees. seemed like she knew everything." kaj looks up at the trees, expression pensive. "i joined the ncr so i could be like her. wish i could go back and change my own mind." her tone is bitter; in her reverie, she's forgotten the i'm neutral about the ncr and i definitely don't resent my time in service front she puts on for craig.

Boone's first answer was a tilt of his head akin to a nod-- an easy agreement, almost as if he never considered not going out and exploring with her.

Really, the sniper looked at ease here: hard not to be with the smell of grass and dirt and vibrant color beating down on him. Even he had a soul to nourish somewhere. So it was with that ease that he answered with a slight bob of his shoulders in a shrug. "Basically grew up in a desert, yeah. Open fields, not much other than Brahmin and dirt. ...Lived on a ranch."

"We had some... spindly dead looking things. Nothing like this." A pause, and he licked his lips as if testing to see how the next words would taste. "...What about you?"

Katara, We Have a Problem

Zuko: Hey, Katara. You know how you’re getting married to Aang in a few days?

Katara: Yes.

Zuko: *Hands her photos* There might be a problem.

Katara: *Eyes widen* Where did you find these?

Zuko: I was packing up my stuff for the wedding and I haven’t traveled in a while-

Katara: Zuko, focus!

Zuko: They were in one of the small pockets.

Katara: Which means this is from-

Zuko: Our trip from 3 years ago? Yeah.

Katara: How could this happen?!?

Zuko: If I recall, we were very drunk-

Katara: I know the events leading up to it Zuko! I meant who forgets they got married in Vegas?!?!

Zuko: …

Katara: *Huffs* What?

Zuko: The suitcase also had our wedding rings.

Katara: Zuko!

headcanon for sydcarmy that I've had for months now that i was reminded of rewatching Fools Rush In yesterday (rip Matthew Perry) and reading @ambeauty 's new fanfic.

i love the unplanned pregnancy trope with them and also the idea that they would do every milestone backwards or hit them super fast in terms of their relationship. hear me out

what i love about sydney and carmy is how intense they are about each other while not knowing each other for that long. carmy spends braciole acting like a heartbroken widower and ends the episode by planning on revamping his family restaurant with a girl he's only known for a couple months. the restaurant dream he thought died with his brother, the person he loved the most (woah). while sydney is her most emotionally vulnerable with a guy she barely knows (and physically too, i.e the hug after the fire suppression test and the table scene) and constantly gives him second chances when he doesn't deserve them.

they are weird and intense about each other even with all these platonic and professional boundaries they put in place.

in my mind that is rotting from tumblr and ao3, when those boundaries disappear they will do the relationship shit on speed drive. oops they get pregnant after a few months of dating or a situationship. whats having a baby when you have a restaurant? they are already the mom and dad of the bear!

they would elope randomly on a tuesday afternoon after dating for a couple months bc they practically eat sleep live and breathe each other every single day anyways? carmy tells syd he doesn't want to wait when he already knows she's it for him. syd says he's crazy but she may just be crazier for agreeing (also grew up with hearing her parents love story who got married super young and fast so why cant she?)

oh they just started dating a few days ago? syd moves in or they start looking for new places. shes already here all the time when they menu plan. carmy already buys her fave snacks, subscribes to a couple streaming services for the first time bc syd loves to binge-watch shows, and has a couple of her scarves laying around.

and i love that this could go really bad, how intense and how much they love each other (bc im an angst enjoyer) or most likely really great bc these two losers want to practically live in each other's skin and make each other better.

side note: after watching fools rush in again...need a sydcarmy au bc the premise of two people from different cultures, values and perspectives foolishly rushing into a big thing like opening a restaurant having a baby is so them!

My new favorite genre of Elvis photo where he looks disappointed in me and is thinking about how he's gonna show me so...

For torture purposes @precious-little-scoundrel @elvisabutler @ab4eva @powerofelvis

"It's on every woman's bucket list to sleep with an Elvis impersonator once in their life" I don't think that's true at all but I also respect this woman and her very strange world view.

regretting saying Olive was from 2021, not 2024 because imagine her teaching the gang HOTTOGO 💔

[doll-elvis]

Okay, here goes: How did Elvis hide "little Elvis" while wearing those white jumpsuits on stage in Vegas. Any ideas? 😳

I love questions like these haha, thank you so much for the ask!! <3

and as confirmed by Marty Lacker and Lamar Fike and several photos of Elvis’ butt, he often wore dancer’s briefs underneath his jumpsuits. Elvis was known for going commando, and we have almost every movie he made as proof of that (iykyk) but sadly that didn’t translate to his concerts 😭

this pictured excerpt is from “Elvis and the Memphis Mafia” and it also shows why I take issue with Lamar Fike !! He was one of the main sources for Albert Goldman’s “Elvis” yet he constantly says that Goldman would alter what he said or didn’t tell the full truth- I still don’t understand why he would ever work with Goldman in the first place (Lamar did admit it was all for money so that explains it but I can’t believe he would let a book that had so many untrue/exaggerated things written about Elvis just for a check🤧)

like how are you going to complain about what Goldman wrote when you were his main source

but anyways- enjoy this picture of his visible briefs that I added to my family’s digital photo frame so every once and a while his butt pops up amongst all the family photos lmaoo

[septembersghost]

the way i feel like e has genuinely made me a better, stronger person this year to the point where it's now so entwined in my being i can't imagine how i'd have found certain moments of resiliency or been willing to examine situations with further room for subtlety and ease of forgiveness than i might even have before and he waited around patiently on the edges until he knew he was most needed and it's felt so healing and so connected to the part of my being that was made to intrinsically love music and

After Elvis and Priscilla divorced she was told to drop his last name but after he died she changed it to milk off of him

now that’s calculated levels of evil! the estate didn’t sue her for that? (can you sue someone for that? maybe not) imagine getting married to a woman who refused to let go of her ex man’s last name just because he was uber famous…idk if she ever remarried but if she hasn’t, that’s probably why lmaooo. it’s going to take her dying to finally get her hands off that elvis coin that’s for sure. (but we all know what that tombstones going to read: presley!) (other side note, isn’t she going to be buried right next to elvis when she dies too- or, at least close to him? talk about obsessed!)

marauders favorite artists and other music-related headcanons totally not based on me being obsessed with late60s-70s music

james potter: yes, jethro tull, steely dan, donna summers, billy joel, the kinks, van halen

i think james would listen to anything and everything tbh, he’s he epitome of eclectic music taste to me, he has his faves obvs but he honestly enjoys all of his friends' faves too totally didn’t put billy joel there because of only the good die young...

sirius black: the rolling stones, queen, led zepellin, ac/dc, black sabbath, KISS, judas priest

i imagine sirius loving black dog by led zeppelin and saying that it’s his song even b4 completing his animagus transformation and it only gets worse after that

remus lupin: elton john, the beatles, david bowie, the who, the doors, boston, joy division

remus lupin would f*cking love people are strange FIGHT ME. post-1981 remus would listen to a lot of joy division, and i swear im not just saying that cause ian curtis gives off remus vibes to me

peter pettigrew: alvin stardust, the rubettes, blue öyester cult, genesis, squeeze

putting blue öyster cult for peter and just picturing sirius saying something like he's shocked peter finally developed some good taste 100% did not put BÖC for peter because of career of evil idk what ure talking about

lily evans: fleetwood mac, marvin gaye, the beatles, creedence clearwater revival, ABBA, neil young, barry manilow

this is 100% a stolen hc from a microfic but lily thinks something by the beatles is the peak of romantic lyricism (btw if u know what microfic i’m talking about pls tell me, cause i can’t find it anywhere) lily and remus like the beatles because it reminds them of their moms

mary macdonald: the beach boys, bee gees, fleetwood mac, nina simone, stevie wonder, eric clapton, diana ross

i think mary and lily had a pretty similar music taste and gave recs to each other when they discovered new songs lily and mary saw eric clapton live in 1978 and ABBA in 1975 (i wanted them to see fleetwood mac live but the dates of their UK concerts just don't really work, unless i put them going to a concert in 1980 which seems a bit weird to me cause yk the war)

marlene mckinnon: the clash, heart, sweet, thin lizzy, pink floyd, the damned, x-ray spex

marlene listens to psycho killer by the talking heads non-stop and everyone groans when she puts it on; sirius gets it because he does the same with killer queen marlene introduces thin lizzy to sirius and james and the three of them saw them live on the 1977 Reading Rock Festival

Elvis and Priscilla didn’t see each other again for 2 years after meeting in Germany. Elvis got back together with his girlfriend Anita Wood when he returned to the U.S. Priscilla had high school boyfriends like Ron Tapp when she was separated from Elvis in Germany. She moved to Graceland in March 1963 and turned 18 in May. Her parents and Colonel Parker forced their wedding. Ann Margret was the love of Elvis’s life and he wanted to marry her instead. Priscilla stole $900,000 from Lisa Marie yearly and recently tried to contest her will and filed a lawsuit against her granddaughter Riley over it.
