rewatching tmf and omg jake and daisy's interactions are so pure

LOOK AT THEM <3

(They're more like friendly acquaintances but I like calling them friends)

It's like my favorite part of the series

I'm very scared ep 10 part 2 will rip it apart at the seams, however.

When Daisy inevitably finds out Jake has a crush on her, how will she feel? Especially in the way she'll find out. Will she be disappointed that one of her friends has actually had a crush on her the whole time? Will she be stressed? Will she reciprocate? Her life seems too filled to the brim with responsibilities to have the time for a lover. Maybe she does like Jake. Maybe once she finds out the severity of how badly Jake messed up, the audio will take back her feelings.

How will Daisy feel when she finds out she was the reason Jake said those things? Would she be mad at Jake for using her as an excuse for his words? Would she be mad at Jake's friends for egging him on? Would she be mad at the music club for not hearing him out sooner? Would she be mad at herself? Would she be angry at herself for being the sole reason Jake joined the club? Would she be upset that she gave the club a faulty member who didn't genuinely care about them? (Or atleast that's what the music club thinks, anyway.)

Daisy is a very sympathetic person. I wouldn't doubt that she'd try her best to help everyone rekindle. But, I don't feel as if Daisy has the power to reconsile such a dead and beaten friendship. The music club has no trust for Jake and Jake's friends have no respect for him. She can't fix that. They have to.

Or maybe Daisy will get everyone to be friends again. Maybe she'll talk it out with every person, getting their insight and opinions. Maybe she'll get them to preform together. Maybe she'll get Jake's friends to stop being jerks. Maybe she'll help Jake confront his own friendship problems he created himself. Maybe Daisy will be the glue to everyone in the final episode.

I don't really know how Daisy will react. All I'm hoping is that Daisy's perception of Jake doesn't turn sour and withered like everyone else's. Rosy, please do not get rid of Jake and Daisy's fluffy interactions i am literally begging

Hot take: drew and Zoey DO love each other

(or at least have at one point).

Look at that blush!!

Not saying they're not toxic or shallow or that it could've worked but to deny they had feelings for each other just for other ships to seem cooler seems pointless to me

They loved each other, though they are horrible cor each other that doesn't mean they don't care for each other (case in point: drake)

This is not to say drew isn't in love with Jake (I'm a big drew-is-in-love-with-jake-and-the-closet-is-made-of-glass-truther myself) but I don't think drew dated her just for reputation, they both have a messed up way of showing and receiving love (Drew's love language is gift giving, and Zoey might feel loved when given money which is weird af but it makes sense in a way, her getting a sugar daddy could be to get more money but also more love ever since drew might've started acting distant or uncaring towards her or she felt like his love and attention wasn't enough, cuz she seems extreme desperate for respect and attention and stuff like that, given how she usually makes herself to be the center of attention so often and how she tries putting herself above everyone else, meanwhile Drew would pay more attention to jake than her at times lmao, which might've made her angry or jealous or idk. but she craved his gifts, his love at one point.)

Zoey did manipulate and deceive him and he fell for it, RosyClozy at point said "Teeth" (a song by 5 Seconds Of Summer) fit Droey really well , and these are the lyrics

The song seems to be about someone infatuated with their lover, being the only brightness in their life and genuinely caring about them, but being lied to and deceived and ig being afraid of being pushed away

When drew found out zoey cheated on him, he was quite obviously upset, as anyone would be, really. Though you could say that, in a way, he seemed to be more upset about Jake not telling him Zoey cheated on him, than... Zoey cheating on him. Again, the show prioritizes how Drew feels about Jake over how he feels about Zoey, which makes it a bit more complicated to break down the true feelings behind Droey. (Plus, all the other ships have canon origins. Lander - childhood best friends. Jailey - met at freshman year, but Jake turned his back on Hailey in order to fit in w the jomies, causing rivalry and mistrust between the two. Jaisy - met in middle school, where she encouraged Jake's passions. Milliot - milliot spinoff ep1, see for yourself. Etc etc. but droey? We don't know how they met or how they got together. I assume it's gonna be revealed in S2 at one point. And it might be really important.)

At one point he worries about Zoey not asking him to buy her anything one time they went out. This was because that's his way of showing love like I said earlier. He was worried because she, in a way, rejected his love. He was worried she didn't love him anymore.

For what reason? Because he loved her.

Now, why does he act distant or ignorant to her at times? Heck if I know. In ep9 for example he seems more annoyed from her than anything else, really. Maybe he's fallen out of love..maybe he's tried of her. Maybe his love for Jake outweighed his love for Zoey. Maybe he felt like she didn't love him anymore, so he didn't feel like trying to love her either. Maybe something else entirely.

But either way ....

Drew cared about Zoey. End of discussion

Now, what is "the line" that separates romantic and platonic love? I honestly don't know. Was drew in love with her? Was it romantic or platonic? Could he have mistaken his feelings for something else? Idfk. I honestly think romantic attraction makes no bullshit. I always saw it as platonic attraction combined with sexual attraction but apparently that . Is not the case ???? Which makes no sense to me. Can some explain pls lmao

That's not the point. He loved her. Now, the show focuses more on how he loved and how he misses Jake, but it's not like Jake is the only person he loves and cares about.

Now does ZOEY love DREW? that's a separate discussion to have. Throughout the show we don't get too much of Zoey tbh. Or we do, but the fandom doesn't pay enough attention to her like it does to other characters. Which makes sense ig? At first glance she seems like a one sided antagonist that could be described in simple terms like "girlboss", "mean girl" "popular girl" "annoying" "manipulative" and that's it. But upon further speculation I feel like there's more to her. In ep3 when Jake threatens to reveal to Drew that she has been cheating on Drew, that's the first and last time she seems to soften up and seem genuinely afraid or caring. Like yeah, she doesn't want to lose the privilege of having him as her bf, that's what it seems like.. but I also have the feeling she was genuinely afraid of losing him for reasons other than money? Even though we can assume she acts affectionate towards him only to manipulate him, I feel like, again, there's more than we can tell.

I feel like though, it could've been very possible that they wanted love and affection in general, but didn't love each other specifically? But the Teeth song makes me think that's not the case.

This is what my mom thinks:

(I think they're both desperate tbh)

My mom also thinks Zoey might have had neglectful parents who mostly showed love to her through gifts and money, so that's why she's constantly seeking partners that give her such things, cause she's used to being loved that way - and being unloved as a child can make you have a messed up idea on what love is (this is the same exact backstory most people believe drew has, and honestly it makes sense for them both)

But yeah.

There's also this image, right here: (from extrarosy teeth MEP addition)

Both smiling, looking genuinely happy, faintly blushing. It doesn't seem as fake or artificial as it usually is.

They can't bear to lose each other. They need each other.

Why? That's up to debate. Maybe Zoey is a one-sided antagonist that's only dating drew for money, maybe drews relationship with her was a beard relationship like most people think so, maybe I'm just overthinking this all.

But again, I think they're more complex...

They're so interesting I need to study them under a microscope

Idk what I'm talking about tbh. This is very surface level and there's much more to say tbh but this is all I feel like saying at thr moment

[xx0blooming-orchid0xx]

What the fuck are you doing on tumblr

- @drewybear

Erm uhm uh er k idh suxjd I want to look at flower pictures online and talk to my friends !! ^~^ (please don't kill me I will even travel to the underground and slaughter Sean if necessary)

[rosypenguins]

Anyways I need to talk abt this one in particular cuz like LOOKAT IT

LOOKAT HIM LOOKAT MY BOY HE’S SO HAPPYTO SEE JAKE LIKE WHY DOES HE LOOK LIKE THIS WHO GAVE THIS MAN THE RIGHT AGH HE’S SO CUTE I WANWANNA PUT HIM IN A BLENDER AND WATCH HIM SPIN AROUND

This boy has no idea what’s in store for him-

[tmf-confessions]

The club wasn't in the wrong for being mad at Jake, the club was in the wrong for not hearing him out. They saw he said something bad, confronted him, ignored him as he tried to explain, and left.

The jomies/dromies who knew what they were doing were also in the wrong. I don't think that all of them had the intention to get jake to say that stuff. Zoey, maybe lia and drew knew what they were doing but I just can't see Henry and Liam doing anything other than just, yknow, saying what they felt.

THE CAPTIONS IN TMF EP. 11 I'M DYINGGG

But anyways I've been part of this fandom since the very beginning (I was a fan of Rosy from the BWBL/GWGL series) and watching the show grow vizual-wise and story-wise was so great! I can't thank Rosy enough for 3 amazing years of TMF! <3

Also SEASON 2 CONFIRMED ASDJDXJXCJSK

[cchallucination]

I think Drew is a really interesting character, and somehow he kinda tells me smth abt myself? Like Drew is sort of a bitch, he’s possessive, and a bully. But he genuinely cares about his friends and Jake especially, even if he isn’t the greatest at showing it? As I’ve made a post about on my blog before, it seemed like he was on the verge of tears in the Drake up scene. And that has technically been confirmed now because Drew’s VA mentioned in a video that rosy wanted him to say those lines sounding like he was going to cry (and one of the takes with those lines it was apparently obvious he was ‘crying’ but that one wasn’t used) He actually gave a fuck about Jake and cared about him, then he lost him. Like that makes me unable to truly hate him, because he isn’t horrible and 100% irredeemable. I think in the real world we forget things like this, because we don’t see people from the perspective we see in shows, books, etc. If I knew Drew in real life I wouldn’t see things like this about him, I wouldn’t even want to attempt to see a good side to him. That isnt a good thing, but I think majority of society is just like that, even if they don’t realize.

Watch tmf now. This is a threat

Jesus I can't believe it has been FOUR YEARS since episode 1 what the music fruck am I doing with my life

Watched episode 1 and omg this is actually so cool ill def binge watch it when I have more free time. I also documented some of my thoughts during it (under the read more)

Whenever their eyes turn into this it just catch me off guard like it's so funny for some reason 😭😭

^ Daisy got that y/n blue orbs

The first song the mc sings is actually so good omg I love it

Why does this teacher sound like she's moaning whenever she talks

He's such a simp for daisy lmao (but based on experience they prolly won't end up together tho)

I have a bad feeling abt this Zoey girl I think she's just a gold digger and doesn't actually love Drew

I feel like I'm gonna end up kinning Milly 😭

Anyways it was really good, the conflict is interesting so yeah that's cool :3

[rextile]

i have a funky tmf fic idea that has lots of henry n self indulgence but no mupotivation since its midnight n i just thought of this i dont think ill be able tos leep now

[stariel-and-stuff]

I don’t ship hermits but it’s giving Boy with Bad Luck/Girl with Good Luck by RosyClosy :PP

i want an AU where scar is a sun decendant and grian is a moon decendant. grian attracts failure and loss while scar attracts positivity and healing.

when they come together, they balance it out. grian learns to love again while scar learns he doesn’t have to always have a smile.

scar falls in love quickly, head over heels. grian is scared, but he leans into the idea slowly … :333

[jakesterling]

guys can u pls ramble to me about your favorite tmf rarepairs.. pls I need to know what rarepairs yall like‼️🙏🏻🙏🏻🫶🥺

[speedydestinydream]

Tmf isnt very accurate in many ways but I like to think that one of the main accurate things rosy nailed was the fact that the jomies have been bullies for years and still haven't been (onscreen) punished and not even stopped. You'd think that after middle school to junior year of highschool the school would notice and stop them for good, but guess what! Nope!

[cringelordofchaos]

Actually I have just now decided I really like Luke (I just gave him mommy issues ☠️ and it worked)

[xx0blooming-orchid0xx]

19/01/2020

Hello guys, I uh. I've been on a journey, as many of you might have come to know.. and I'm in a bit of a ruffle.

I can't really get into it, or It will come for me. it's far too dangerous...

I will try to record a diary, and hopefully send it to all of rosemeadow.

I will find him. I will find Sean..

And @drewybear? I.. I will fulfill the task you have given out to me.

I promise.

I have to find a way to stop my head from bleeding now.

Hopefully, my message gets in time.

And hopefully, when this is sent, I am still alive..

I hope, one day, that I may return. But that day is not today..

💙Sean gives the best hugs.

🩵Hailey and Zander host sleepovers a lot.

💜Zander has RBF.

🧡Luke tends to suppress his own feelings in favor of focusing on Zander’s.

💙Despite being the group’s therapist, Sean doesn’t like talking about his own problems in fear he’d be seen as a burden. He’s opened up to Milly a bit, but not much.

[cringelordofchaos]

But the thing is Jake kinda couldn't. He was afraid of his history of being bullied being repeated and he saw Drew and Henriam bullying people that were just like him, which rightfully made him fear what his reaction to him being a 'nusic freak' would be. If he were to be honest about his passions right away, Drew might've never even approached him, Jake could've possibly been among the others that the Dromies would pick on. Their friendship was set on a bundle of layers of lying, insecurity and fear. Because they were both afraid of losing the other, so they did things that would end up hurting each other and themselves.

Maybe if they were both in a better headspace,if drew didn't have attachment issues, if Jake didn't have insecurities, if Jake wasn't bullied throughout his whole life and had little to no friends and wasn't desperate for any friends even if it meant lying to himself and others, if drew wasn't so afraid of losing him for reasons we are yet to know, they could've worked. But they'd essentially be different people then.

It's kinda tragic that way. That in a way it was simply almost impossible for them to work. Like they were two pieces of two completely different puzzle sets.

Jake couldn't bring himself to be honest earlier, and drew could bring himself to accept Jake might prefer other people's company over his. And even when Jake confessed the truth to him, Drew rightfully felt as if his trust was betrayed, as if Jake felt like he didn't have the right to know, and it didn't help that he had only just recently found out his girlfriend had been cheating on him, and that Jake didn't bother to tell him earlier.

It just didn't work. It couldn't really have. Maybe they can try again in the future, once they're both happier and healthier and more honest and less afraid. But their departure was essentially impossible to avoid. It was almost something bound to happen

Jake and Drew both really did care for eachother but the lack of communication ruined everything. If Jake was honest about his passion things probably would have turned out wayyy better.

confession #640

wait no cause you have a point
