Bisexuality is truly a rich and complex tapestry.

— Casey McQuiston, RWRB.

Talking about bisexuals being sex-crazed as if that’s something completely exclusive to the bi-club is downright laughable.

Bisexuals are regular people, just like anyone who identifies themselves with any other sexuality.

Bisexuals can be demisexual, too.

Bisexuals can be hypersexual, too.

Bisexuals can be internalised biphobes, too, when they judge the above two.

Red, White & Royal Blue

By Casey McQuiston

“What’d you steal today?”

“Anything good this week?”

“That one is true.”

“Oh yeah, that was a wild night.”

“That can’t possibly be a real class you’re taking.”

“Whose wedding?”

“You’re going to ask them to dance, then?”

“Something is wrong with both of you.”

“Could be weirdly effective.”

“Do either of y’all know what a viscount is?”

“It’s cute how you think everything is about you.”

“It should be, honestly.”

“Do you know how to waltz?”

“I’m sure I don’t know what you mean.”

“Looks like it’s your lucky day.”

“I believe perhaps you should consider switching to water.”

“I want so badly for you to explain to me how this is funny.”

“Please, tell me another joke.”

“Is it too late to take the faking-my-death option?”

“Are you really not understanding how much I don’t care at all how you feel about this?” “You won’t miss anything.”

“So there’s really no way I’m getting out of this?”

“I don’t know what else to do, is the thing.”

“Shakespearean in that hopefully I’ll get stabbed to death.”

“I can’t believe I have to learn this garbage.”

“That’s because you are a nerd.”

“Everything looks like a museum.”

“Have you practiced what you’ll say tomorrow?”

“I think you’ve got the right idea.”

“Do you mind?”

“This is your fault!”

“How is this possibly my fault?”

“I cannot believe even mortal peril will not prevent you from being the way you are.”

“So you do have some fight in you.”

“I’d rather not be the little spoon.”

“Do you really want to have that conversation?”

“I didn’t realize you heard that.”

“I feel like you’re missing the point.”

“How can I be wrong about my favorite? It’s a personal truth.”

“It’s a personal truth that is wrong and bad.”

“You exhaust me.”

“I enchant you.”

“I’ll call security.”

“Fair enough.”

“Wow, I thought I could trust you.”

“It was like you were tying to set him on fire with your mind.”

“What is your point?”

“Bring them to the house.”

“Are you done? I have some actual work to do.”

“Because we all knew better than to try and stop you.”

“Just bring me my pizza.”

“It ever make you laugh to think how much this pisses assholes off?”

“You really think it’s such a bad idea?”

“You don’t think I was out of line?”

“You were in on this, weren’t you?”

“Did this man just say ‘sweat drop down my balls’?”

“I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.”

“I’m going for a fun, and you’re coming with me.”

“You’re not surprised?”

“So, what are you going to do?”

“Is this a diabolical scheme of seduction?”

“Cool to see you’re not dead or anything.”

“Do you mind?”

“Find your way here okay?”

“You’ve been dodging me for weeks.”

“Do you ever stop talking?”

“I don’t like that look.”

“Hey, don’t threaten me with a good time.”

“Call it historical curiosity.”

“So you’re upset because the rumors aren’t true.”

“You are a wanker.”

“I’m going to need you to not call me that right now.”

“You’ve always backed me up until now.”

“Why don’t you say whatever it is you need to say?”

“I’m not sure I’m following.”

“It’s not about that. This time is different.”

“Hello, excuse me, can we get another round of these please?”

“Have I mentioned lately that you’re a demon?”

“I trust you can handle yourself?”

“Bisexuality is truly a rich and complex tapestry.”

“What are you going to do about it?”

“Would you describe it as supersonic?”

“Can y’all go sit somewhere else?”

“Awesome, fuckin’ love doing things out of spite.”

“Has anyone shown you around the clubhouse yet?”

“You really are determined to get shoved out of an emergency hatch one day, huh?”

“Are you sure you don’t want to talk about it?”

“Well, I hope it was fun, because if anyone ever finds out about this, we’re all fucked.”

“Yes, we can unpack the ironic symbolism later. Go.”

“If you finish that sentence, I’m going to spend tonight in jail.”

“Okay, I’m clearing my schedule for the afternoon.”

“I don’t believe in systems when I’m on vacation.”

“How long have you lot come out here?”

“Hope you’re ready to fuckin’ party.”

“Fuck off, five-nine is average.”

“Can’t you ever just do one thing without having to be so goddamn extra about it?”

“Do you have any idea what that means?”

“You think I don’t care as much as you?”

“You’re sure as hell acting like it.”

“I never said you were a coward.”

“Your hair in the mornings is truly a wonder to behold.”

“And there’s nothing wrong with you.”

“Yeah, don’t let it go to your head.”

“I suppose we do have to face the consequences at some point.”

“When are you going to tell us who you’re dating?”

“You gonna fight me?”

“I want you to tell me why.”

“You’re not the same.”

“How the fuck did they get these?”

“You’re giving my ulcer an ulcer.”

“But short for a stormtrooper.”

“Thank God you’re here. I was about to come get you myself.”

“I fucking love you.”

“You’re too young to understand.”

“That is the bravest son of a bitch I’ve ever met.”

“Oh, will you all shut up for a second?”

“Where the fuck have you been?”

“I said, you look great, baby!”

“My life is a cosmic joke and you’re not a real person.”

“You should have tried to stop me.”

“Are you actually quitting for real?”

“How are things over there?”

“Wanted to come by to see if I could help with anything.”

“Will you please just help me pick?”

“Fire under my ass for no good goddamn reason.”

“You’re kind of hot when you get all indignant.”

This or That: RWRB Book Edition

I've been tagged by @myteavsricochet @meraki-yao @almightaylor and @starkfridays Thank youuuu guys!! As fun as it sounds (a lot) i feel like i'm only remember half of the book so i'm going to do my best to answer something else than ???? to every question.

// Cakegate or the Great Turkey Calamity // Red Room or tack room // strumpet or biscuit // Don’t Stop Me Now or Your Song // Yes, good, carry on or We all must learn and grow (i have absolutely no recollection of either of these??? sorry fam) // Prince Buttercup or Hoe Dameron (for the note in the pocket, and for Oscar Isaac) // Henry runs on NYE or Henry runs from the lake house (at least this one makes some sense) // I am very, very gay or Bisexuality truly is a rich and complex tapestry (if you think i'm ever going to chose anything else than the option with bisexuality in it.......) // fire under your ass for no good goddamn reason or bottom of the pie crust chat (because the idea is more/better developed in how i remember it ) // baby or sweetheart // The whole bloody time or set me on fire // Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi Revenge of the Sith (i'm a prelogy baby and a whore for Anakin and Hayden, sorry) // AN INCOMPLETE LIST or your body comes back to me in dreams // burgundy velvet suit or midnight-blue bomber jacket (both because there is a hommage/hidden reference to the burgundy velvet suit in the story i'm writing BUT i would have picked the bomber for myself soooo) // bad metaphors about maps or hometown stuff (i... don't know? I don't remember what the hometown stuff is reffering to? Austin things?) // obtuse fucking asshole or then fucking have me // America: He is my choice or Never tell me the odds (i like both in a moderate way?) // sería una mentira porque no sería él (best line of the whole fucking rwrb universe) or history, huh? // I’m never gonna love anybody in the world like I love you or I love him on purpose //

That was fun 💜 (can you tell i read the book when i thought i was going to be in the fandom for a total of 14 business days?) Open tag, i want to read more!

[thecasualfkfan]

Ok so I finally(FINALLY!) watched The Red,White and Royal Blue movie and I Loved It

BUT

As someone who really loves the book here are somethings I really wanted to see in the movie (and i know that not everything from the books can be included in the movie if they don't make a 4 hour long movie but these are just my wistful wantings)-

The Scenes/characters-

The Magazine with Henry's picture(yk the one with the sticky fingerprints from teenage Alex)

Henry's Mum; especially the confrontation with The King

NORA

That one gay senator who smokes a heck ton of cigarettes(tl;dr- Mr. Rafael Luna)

Alex's stepfather

Now for the quotes-

“fucking eyelashes”

"AN INCOMPLETE LIST: THINGS I LOVE ABOUT HRH PRINCE HENRY OF WALES"

"Dear Thisbe, I wish there weren’t a wall. Love, Pyramus"

"Bisexuality is truly a rich and complex tapestry"

“Fine,” he finally says. “You know what? Fucking fine. I’ll leave.” “Good.” “I’ll leave,” he says, and he turns back and leans in, “as soon as you tell me to leave.” “Alex.”

And lastly,this whole passage-

"Should I tell you that when we’re apart, your body comes back to me in dreams? That when I sleep, I see you, the dip of your waist, the freckle above your hip, and when I wake up in the morning, it feels like I’ve just been with you, the phantom touch of your hand on the back of my neck fresh andnot imagined? That I can feel your skin against mine, and it makes every bone in my body ache? That, for a few moments, I can hold my breath and be back there with you, in a dream, in a thousand rooms, nowhere at all?"

This or That: Rwrb (Book) Edition

Thanks so much for the tag @blueeyedgrlwrites ! ☺️❤️

So a fun fact about me is that I hadn't actually read the book until being tagged for this, which is super blasphemous, I know 😔; I had watched the movie, gotten understandably obsessed with the story, digged around my room until I found my copy of the book, gotten to the beginning of chapter 2 and then just...stopped reading, and the funny thing is I can't even tell you the reason why aesrdfghjklioplb, just massive brain worms or something at the time I guess 😅.

It was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I really enjoyed becoming that pointing Leo Dicaprio meme every time I recognized something that was kept for the movie.

//Cakegate or the Great Turkey Calamity // Red Room or tack room // strumpet or biscuit // Don’t Stop Me Now or Your Song // Yes, good, carry on or We all must learn and grow // Prince Buttercup or Hoe Dameron // Henry runs on NYE or Henry runs from the lake house // I am very, very gay or Bisexuality truly is a rich and complex tapestry // fire under your ass for no good goddamn reason or bottom of the pie crust chat // baby or sweetheart // The whole bloody time or set me on fire // Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi // AN INCOMPLETE LIST or your body comes back to me in dreams // burgundy velvet suit or midnight-blue bomber jacket // bad metaphors about maps or hometown stuff // obtuse fucking asshole or then fucking have me // America: He is my choice or Never tell me the odds // sería una mentira porque no sería él or history, huh? // I’m never gonna love anybody in the world like I love you or I love him on purpose //

Gonna tag @myheartalivewrites and leave an open tag here cause I know for a fact that everybody else that I want to tag has without a doubt done this already aersdfbrjvprvl 😆😆😆.

favorite quotes from red, white, and royal blue

Page 13: “‘I think [a viscount] is when a vampire creates an army of crazed sex waifs and starts his own ruling body.’”

Page 13: “‘Oh, please, I beg you, take me—take me to lunch to discuss fabric samples, you beast!’”

Page 41: “‘I didn’t know you wore glasses,’ he says finally.”

Page 51: “He can almost hear Henry roll his eyes, and he’s thankful for it, the familiar comfort of antagonism.”

Page 74: “‘tell shaan i say hi and i miss that sweet sweet ass xoxoxo’”

Page 77: “‘Yes, famously the most sinister of all animal sounds, the gobble.’”

Page 101: “‘Here,’ Alex says, moving his own hips, ‘watch me.’ With a grave gulp of champagne, Henry says, ‘I am.’”

Page 105: “Alex considers his face in profile, blinking through the booze, following the smooth line of his nose and the gentle dip at the center of his lower lip, each touched by moonlight.”

Page 106: “Maybe he can absorb some of the ‘much’ from the place where their shoulders are pressed together.”

Page 116: “So it goes, and Henry is there, in his head and his lecture notes and his cubicle, every single stupid day, no matter how many shots of espresso he puts in his coffee.”

Page 145: “Henry looks back at him, his mouth open and incredulous, and he throws his head back and laughs, and it’s only him, the nerdy, neurotic, sweet, insomniac rich guy who constantly sends Alex photos of his dog, and something slots into place.”

Page 149: “He whips a thick leather strap off a hook on the wall, and Alex almost blacks out.”

Page 152: “‘Alex, First Son of Off-Brand England…’”

Page 194: “‘Bisexuality is truly a rich and complex tapestry.’”

Page 203: “‘If only you had known the mighty work of thine loins would be undone by a gay heir who likes it when American boys with chin dimples are mean to him.’”

Page 220: “Henry lets Alex take him apart with painstaking patience and precision, moans the name of God so many times that the room feels consecrated.”

Page 241: “‘Alex, First Son of Masturbatory Historical Readings: The phrase ‘see attached bibliography’ is the single sexiest thing you have ever written to me.’”

Page 255: “‘That kind of love is rare, even if it was a complete disaster.’”

Page 257: “...and the breeze keeps moving to meet the highest branches of the trees, and the water keeps rising to meet the bulkheads, and Henry leans down to meet Alex’s mouth, and Alex is. Well, Alex is so in love he could die.”

Page 257: “He could go outside and dig his fingers into the springy ground and understand anything about himself.”

Page 261: “He wants to match the new freckles across Henry’s nose to the stars above them and make him name the constellations.”

Page 271: “‘I fucking love you, okay?’ Alex half yells, finally, irreversibly.”

Page 280: “...and he reaches out to touch his face and looks at his fingers and thinks about holding the Bible at his mother’s inauguration with the same hand.”

Page 290: “He wonders what Santa Chiara would think of them, a lost David and Jonathan, turning slowly on the spot.”

Page 298: “‘Here lies Prince Henry of Wales. He died as he lived: avoiding plans and sucking cock.’”

Page 302: “‘You love so much bigger than yourself, bigger than everything.’”

Page 344: “‘I love him on purpose.’”

Page 385: “It’s like everything he’s ever loved about Henry in a moment, in a laugh, in the way he shivers, in the confident roll of his spine, in happy, unfettered sex in the well-furnished eye of a storm.”
