charles leclerc x reader. / carlos sainz jr x reader.

fc: lalisa manoban.

note: listen to don’t blame me by taylor swift for this :)

trouble in paradise?

it seems like y/n l/n isn’t very faithful to her new boyfriend, carlos sainz if we believe his teammate charles leclerc who is also y/n’s ex boyfriend, #messy 👀. in case you lived under a rock, y/n and charles broke up a few months ago and only a month later she started dating sainz. these two looked in love until charles posted some weird insta stories hinting at y/n’s possible infidelity. the internet has been divided ever since that story with either #teamy/n or #teamcharles.

one thing for sure, y/n lost the support she had when she broke up with charles. we tried to get in touch with sainz but his team politely declined our calls, as for charles he only commented that his story was self explanatory and he didn’t need to add anything else. y/n on the other hand disappeared from social media since her comments sections were being jeopardised by haters.

and you, who’s team are you on?

carlos put down his phone and got out his car, he was just in front of charles’s house and he came ready to put an end to his behaviour. he had charles’s address since they were teammates and once friends. the spaniard knocked multiple times, thinking about what he was going to do once charles opened the door, he rehearsed his lines a thousand times because he was scared that anger would take over once charles was in front of him. he just wanted to ask one question: why? why would he do that to you, when all he did during your relationship was hurting you over and over again.

"carlos. i knew i’d see you soon. how are you? my friend?" charles opened the door with a big smile which took carlos off guard but angered him even more. "your friend? do you even know the meaning of that word?" he answered through gritted teeth, taking a step inside charles’s apartment. "oh because you do? mister steal your girl?" charles’s attitude made carlos want to strangle him on the spot. "you really want to play that game? you cheated on her, coño how dare you act like you’re the victim here, hm?" carlos slightly pushed charles which made him take a step back.

"don’t fucking touch me." carlos knew that if he let his feelings get the best of him, this could end very badly, and he couldn’t do this to you. "you say that you still love her, that cheating on her was a mistake, but what about what you’re doing right now? everyone think that she cheated on me with you! that’s not love charles, it’s obsession." carlos added, trying to resonate the monegasque. "you don’t understand the bond we have, sainz. she’s just messing with you to get to me." charles smiled. "leave her alone, leclerc. don’t make me repeat myself." the monegasque took a step towards his teammate and grabbed him by his collar. "or what, sainz? what are you going to do, hm? because i’m never going to stop, y/n is mine and mine only." the spaniard couldn’t recognise the man in front of him, the one he once called his ‘hermanito’, the one he loved to piss off during training and the one he loved to film challenges for the fans. the man in front of him wasn’t the charles he knew. that’s why carlos didn’t feel bad for what he was about to do.

"i came here to see if i could resonate you, it was the last chance i was going to give you. but you made me realise that the charles i knew was long gone. what you’re feeling right now is not love, i’m not saying that you never loved y/n, it’s not my place to judge that, but right now you’re nothing but a stalker, charles." carlos pushed charles off him and rearranged his collar. "what i’m feeling for y/n is true love because i know that once i’ll realise that she’s happier without me, i’ll leave her alone immediately, because her happiness is more important than mine." and with that, carlos left a speechless charles behind.

later that night, carlos came back to your shared apartment, he found you asleep on the couch while your favorite tv show was playing. he smiled and took off his shoes and jacket before slowly crouching next to you. he brushed the strands of hair in front of your face and kissed your forehead. that made you open your eyes, and what you saw in front of you made you think you were dreaming. "carlos?" you asked, tears forming in the corner of your eyes. "yes, cariño, i’m home." you bit your lip and hugged him tightly while he was stroking your hair. "i’m so sorry for making you cry, i never once doubted you."

Seeing someone online pretending to be someone who they are not is so weird. Like I am on a discord server and this new person came in a month ago with super sus filtered & AI generated “selfies” (saying some of them are without filter BUT they obviously are edited hard....). Used two accounts. one with their real face but edited and the new wit Ai pics.(there are 2 new people joining 1 day apart and both are the only ones using heavy filter with a similar description... also their new user name doesn’t fit their story at all... like uses a gay slang term but says they are new to the whole scene and stuff). So I just googled their username and yea I found their insta and twt super easy... parts of their written self description is the same on all sites. Except for the fact that they literally lie about their race, age, body build, family and their sex / gender... 

Them today: “man I got misgendered today because apparently americans can’t distinguish asian (korean) men from women...”

Me internally: bro, I know you are a white american cis identifying woman with a whole ass family cause you openly post all that on social media :/

Look I wouldn’t be so weirded out by that if (S)HE wouldn’t have told us that (S)HE is NOT trans but an ally (we were ranting about transphobes when they joined the chat). Also wtf about the whole race thing?? Why pretend to be a gay korean man?? They literally use tags that contain ‘girl’ and ‘woman’ on their insta now and is obviously a white woman in the pics, it even has the locations listed...

Thing is I had a friend who got catfished by a “japanese gay cis man” who turned out to be a german woman who had a crush on her. They had a close online friendship over years before she came clean about the lies... which obviously ended in tears and blocking her. Maybe that’s why I am sensitive to such sus behavior especially with selfies that look ‘too professional’ or too artificial. I put that stuff into google pic search or just google your name if I sense red flags ike that... (I also do that on dating sites when a person with sus pics contacts me.)

I still give them the benefit of the doubt, it’s still possible that they have a mental illness of some sort... or just play a double life idk. So I just told the admin privately to keep an eye on that person. As long as they behave and don’t ask for money or whatever it should be fine 🤷‍♂️ But it’s so weird and uncomfortable seeing them lying like that....

[tea-with-evan-and-me]

Idk if you saw this video about Nicholas but the things this girl is saying are kinda disturbing

I actually witnessed this from the beginning anon: this girl Livia in the video is indeed Nicolas his ex but they dated short term. After the success of the Menendez series she posted a pic on her TT page of her and Nicolas from the time they were dating. Of course people were reacting and asking questions in the comments. She kept saying how Nicolas was weird and that he had mood swings and bunch of other stuff, just overall badmouthing him. People kept asking for a story time which resulted in that video of her speaking about Nicolas. But the day after she posted her video, she uploaded the picture of her and Nicolas in their dating time on her insta story and tagged him, along with a smile emoji. Shortly after she deleted that story.

About the SA: the actress debunked it on her twitter page and said that Nicolas never did anything to her and said that this girl is a liar. People were calling her out and kept saying how she shouldn’t accuse an actor of SA without any real proof. I’ve had also noticed how she kept deleting comments. She deleted my comment 3 times because I asked her why she would tag Nicolas when she knows that he’s in a relationship. Shorty after this video, she posted a second video where she was basically gaslighting us. Saying how we are obsessed with Nicolas just cause he’s hot. She also said that she couldn’t understand that we’re into supporting sociopaths. At this point she was referring to the real Menendez brothers. Lyle and Eric suffered abuse and trauma for many years and for her to compare these 2 guys with Ted Bundy who was an actual serial killer that choose his victims was just plain disgusting. She ended up deleting the video because people were calling her out on her bullshit. If Nicolas was this terrible guy like she described, then why would she tag him on her insta story to gain his attention? To me she’s a hypocrite and she was enjoying the attention that she was receiving. Now she made her page about tarot and readings. I’ve noticed how all these girls that are coming out and make it known that they’ve dated Nicolas but something tells me they also do it for cloud and attention because he’s the guy of the moment. I’m not saying that Nicolas is a saint but what’s in the past is in the past. The guy is in a relationship and they should just leave him alone and let him enjoy his career instead of trying to ruin his reputation. We’ve all done stuff in our lives we’re not proud of.

i mean, i'm not going to speak to anything i can't verify as having seen myself, but the mere fact that this girl just casually shared to the internet some acquaintance's story about her then boyfriend sexually assaulting them is WILD. that's completely inappropriate. i can't vouch for or against him, but i do recognize that both things can be true: this man can be a terrible person and his ex can be capitalizing on the public's interest in nicolas.

first time on set since I had the twins. I admit it hasn't been the easiest and I was quieting down fears even as the cameras flashed. but to make it clear, I only look like this post childbirth bec of my genetics/natural physique, and the resources that allows me significant assistance during childbirth, running the household and a loving, dedicated staff whose main job is to keep me happy and healthy. Our bodies have done such a wonderful thing to bring a child to this world and you should treat your body kindly after, not push yourself to look a certain way after.

Your body changing after childbirth isn't a bad thing, if you don't wear the same pant size anymore, your organs rearranged differently or something changes colour or the stretch marks that form, everyone's body is different and let's celebrate that as long as it's not causing any significant harm, discomfort or illness to your lovely body.

I cannot thank the entire village who was by my side then and now when I welcomed my two little angels and the warm embrace as you've welcomed me back to the fashion world. To my muse, my partner, my other half @/tchalamet I cannot thank you enough for the love and sacrifice you've shown our family and I love love you so much mon amour.

Warnings: Some language? I can’t think of anything else

% approximately the 3rd week of October %

Friday evening, the volleyball team arrived at the town regionals were being held at, about an hour away. You were staying in a hotel again, and as before, Julia was your buddy.

After having spent the evening laughing and having fun, your whole hotel room group was about to head up the stairs.

“Hey, y/n. Do you mind staying back for a minute?” Julia asked.

“Oh, sure. We’ll meet you guys upstairs,” you called to the other two, who waved back nonchalantly and continued walking. Julia and you went back to some empty seats near the lobby.

“What’s up?” you asked, smiling.

“Well… Sam told me he caught you and Tom yesterday and I just wanted to ask you about it…”

Your smile faltered.

“What’s there to talk about? I told him that Tom sprayed me with water so I got back at him by soaking the back of his shirt. There’s nothing more to say.”

“Well, yeah, he told me that but he also mentioned that you stayed for dinner? And met Nikki’s parents last weekend? Not trying to imply anything, but I didn’t meet their grandparents until Sam and I had been dating for like 6 months.”

You were getting annoyed, considering this was the second person in two days to ask you about Tom.

“I didn’t just meet them over nothing! Nikki took my senior pictures at the same time as Tom’s and wanted to do them there. I was just tagging along for the ride.”

“You know he’s also coming to state next weekend, right? If we pass through tomorrow?”

He is?

“Uh, no I didn’t. Doesn’t he have football stuff to worry about? It’s also Halloween next weekend, like he’d miss out on the big party.”

“They have a bye next week. Sam is going to come and I guess Tom is taking him, but Nikki might come too? I’m not sure. I guess you’d better ask him. Anyways, I just wanted to clear things up since there were all those rumors today,” she said, starting to get up.

“Wait, wai- Rumors? I never heard anything. Like about me?”

“You haven’t heard? I guess one of the freshman girls who has a massive crush on Tom was stalking Nikki’s website last night and saw some pictures of the two of you. A bunch of people think you’re dating now.”

You felt yourself pale.

“Oh no, and she changed one picture after Tom asked her to. Do you know what the picture was?”

“Something about him carrying you..? I never saw it, why?”

“Great. Now everyone is going to think she changed it because a secret got out or something. Ughhhh I just wish this stupid marriage project had never happened and I would never be in this mess.”

Julia looked at you contemplatively for a moment.

“Think of it this way, you and Tom are friends now, right?” you apprehensively nodded. “If it weren’t for that project, you two would still be fighting all the time and you wouldn’t have had the incredible Nikki Holland taking your pictures. Everyone can just get over themselves, you know?”

You snorted, then grinned.

“Yeah I guess so. You know, you’re annoyingly wise beyond your years,” you stated. “Now let’s get back upstairs. We have a long day ahead of us.”

%

Placing first at regionals meant two things: you were going to state, and everyone was congratulating you again when Monday came.

They also kinda looked at you funny when Tom high fived you in the hallway as he passed by, but you had decided to follow Julia’s advice and stop caring about the rumors people were spreading. 

Once the morning announcements ended, your calculus teacher stood up, a small paper stack in hand.

“Okay, everyone, since I’m your first period teacher and homecoming is next week, today you get to cast your nomination votes. Y’all know the drill: three guys, three girls for king and queen. Try to make it fast, we have a lot to do today.”

She walked around handing out half-sheets of paper with six lines on them. You and Tom immediately looked at each other.

“We nominating each other?” Tom asked before you could.

“Wouldn’t have it any other way,” you joked, filling out the sheet with both of your names and four others.

In home ec, you sat next to Tom cutting fabric for yet another project you had to do together, thinking about something Julia had mentioned.

“Hey, I gotta ask you something. Is it true you’re going to the capital this weekend for our state tournament?” you asked.

“Oh, yeah. This is our bye week and I promised Sam I’d go with him and mom. Plus, we can work on the project when you’re free.”

“You do realize that’s like a four hour drive, right? I mean it’s Halloween this weekend. Wouldn’t you rather make an appearance at Johnny’s big blowout?”

“Eh, it won’t be that great. I mean his place isn’t even that big and it’s in town. There’s literally no way it won’t get busted within the first half hour. The homecoming party at Tyler’s however… that’s gonna be insane.”

“Okay Johnny’s trash party aside, you really would rather spend your one free weekend of the season four hours away watching girls play volleyball then at home doing… whatever it is you do. And please don’t tell me you watch the ‘hub in your spare time.”

“Come on, y/n I’m not an animal. Even without the tight uniforms volleyball is really cool.” 

You backhanded his arm at the comment.

“Plus, I don’t need any videos to get myself off,” he added, smirking.

“You disgust me.”

“You know you love me.”

“Hmm. Debatable,” you shot back dryly, earning a chuckle and shoulder bump from him as you finally cracked.

%

At lunch, your friends were discussing the Halloween party when you sat down.

“Okay we really need to figure out what to wear this weekend, and we’re not going as playboy bunnies like Daisy and all her group,” said one girl.

“Well I say we dress as frat boys. It’s funny, not super sexual, and we all know half the guys are going to rush next year,” suggested Caroline.

“I like it, but what if we went a step further and dressed as dads. You know, hawaiian shirts, khaki shorts, socks and sandals. That would be hilarious. What do you think, y/n?” said Alexis.

“Sorry ladies, I won’t be there. We have state this weekend at the capital so as always, we’re driving down Friday after school. I will be at Tyler’s homecoming thing next weekend. Also, I do really like the dad thing, but I vote y’all do Guy Fieri.”

“Wait why is that literally genius,” Alexis said as the others agreed. “Of course it would suck to take your idea without you even getting to do it.”

“You guys really think I care? Just credit me in your insta captions. I’ll make the team put ribbons with flames on them in their ponytails Saturday.”

“Okay now we have to do it,” a different friend said.

“Hey, at least you won’t have to worry about Tom. I’m sure he’ll be at the party,” Caroline said. You wrinkled your nose.

“Yeah about that… His brother’s girlfriend is on the team so he’s going, too. I’m the one that’ll be seeing him instead of you guys but whatever. We’ll need to work on our project anyways.”

“Don’t you think that’ll fuel the fires people are already spreading about you? A good portion of the school thinks you’re secretly together now,” added the first friend from before. 

“People are going to believe whatever the hell they want. I honestly don’t care anymore. Oh! By the way, did I tell you guys that some freshman was the one spreading shit about me Friday? The nerve those kids have,” you said.

“Wait, what? It was a freshman that was trying to tell everyone y’all are together? Ugh why would anyone believe them?” Alexis asked, incredulous.

“I know, right? Apparently she’s like obsessed with Tom or something. She must have a backwards way of thinking if she believes spreading fake rumors will make him want her. Jokes on her when she has to see us together on homecoming court. He’s just as likely to be voted as I am, maybe even more.”

The group all laughed and continued talking about random things, and you mentally wiped the sweat from your brow now that the conversation was shifted from you and Tom.

%

You were nervously bouncing your leg before calculus Friday morning. You’d gotten to school early to make certain you would be there for the announcements, which is when they would be releasing the list of nominees.

Tom came in a couple minutes before the bell, hair still wet from his post workout shower. Usually he blow dried it, and he obviously noticed you looking at his curls, your knee bouncing anxiously.

“Got out of the weight room late so I rushed over here. What are you wired up about, princess?”

“Do I really have to tell you? Homecoming noms.”

“You’re actually nervous about that? Everyone knows you’re already at the top of the list.”

“Uh, no, that’s you. After everything that’s happened the past few weeks, there’s no telling how people feel about me.”

“Oh you’ll be fine. I know it,” Tom finished. You wanted to disagree with him further, but then the bell rang and announcements began. After the general daily stuff, they got to the part everyone was waiting for. 

You were on the edge of your seat. The disembodied voice began with the underclassmen’s court nominations, eventually working up to the senior king contestants.

“Alright, first up in the running for kings we have… Tuwaine Barrett!”

Tuwaine was a cool dude. He played basketball and was in theatre. You were happy to see him nominated.

“Next up we’ve got Harrison Osterfield!”

Ugh. I’d rather abdicate the throne than end up against him.

“And finally for the boys, Tom Holland!”

A small cheer went up in your classroom as people congratulated Tom and patted him on the back. You gave him a high five.

“And now for the ladies. First on the list is Zendaya Coleman!”

Ah Zendaya. You were never that close, but she was always nice when you’d had classes with her. She was way taller than you, a star player on the basketball and softball teams. Not to mention she was insanely gorgeous. This was already some stiff competition.

“Second, we have Daisy Ridley!”

And of course another likely contender. Daisy, who was planning on going to that evening’s Halloween party as a playboy bunny, was a cheerleader. She didn’t fit every aspect of the cheer stereotype, like the fact that she was actually really smart, but she definitely wasn’t the nicest person either.

“And finally, your last nominee for homecoming queen is… y/n y/l/n!”

It took a second to fully process that it was you they were talking about until there were people cheering you on like they’d done for Tom. He reciprocated the high five.

“What’d I tell you princess? Or shall I say queen.”

%

Tom was leaving football practice after the bell when a few of his buddies appeared next to him to walk across the parking lot.

They were talking when Tom saw you all loading the bus, and you sent each other a wave.

“Damn, y/n’s not gonna be at the party tonight? That’s rough, she always has the dopest costumes. ‘Least you will. What are you going as?” one guy, Jake, said.

“Did I not tell you? I’m going out of town. Won’t be there. I totally would’ve been Spider-Man though,” Tom explained.

“Wait you won’t be there tonight either?” another, Chris, asked. “You’re gonna miss out on some major exposure for homecoming votes.”

“Oh yeah, right. I’m pretty sure things are in the bag for me. I’ll just be gone tonight and tomorrow. Promised Sam I’d go to the volleyball thing with him.”

“Wait, wait, wait. You. Are going to the capital. Which is four hours away. At the same time as y/n. Am I hearing this right?” Jake asked as they finally reached their cars.

“Oh shut up, man. It’s not like that. Yeah we’ll be at the same place this weekend but whatever. We’re cool with each other now.”

“Cool? Is that code for ‘I want to make out every time I look at her?’” interjected Chris. He and Jake gave each other a look and laughed.

“Ugh, no. I’d kiss a salmon before I kissed y/n. I just meant we’ve come to an understanding and are somewhat friends now.”

They both looked at him funny.

“So you mean to tell me that there’s nothing going on between you two? Yeah right. We’ve all seen the way you look at her at games,” Jake said suggestively.

“What is up with you and everyone else at this school thinking there’s more to the story?! We are fake married for a school project and are nothing more than friends. You’re crazy to think otherwise.”

“Who are you planning on asking to the dance?” Chris asked, seemingly out of nowhere.

“What? What do you mean? I haven’t even thought about it.”

“I’m asking who you’ll take to homecoming. It’s y/n, isn’t it?”

“No. No, it’s not, because I haven’t asked anyone.”

“Would you go with her?” Chris continued, pressing in.

“I mean I guess so. If we’re voted king and queen then it’ll basically be an obligation.”

“And if you’re not?”

“Dude why are you asking all these questions! If she isn’t queen then I’ll go with whoever is. If I’m not king, I’ll just go solo and see what happens. Whatever, though, I need to get home. I’ll see you guys Monday,” Tom finished.

He walked off to his car, where his brothers were impatiently waiting.

So, I guess here comes the Camille ☕️ (if you wanna call it that)

Sorry in advance this gonna be a fucking long one.

If you have any questions just ask.

I honestly don’t know if I should be impressed or concerned that my brain still remembers so much details about this shitshow. But I guess their plan did work in the end.

So you asked about Camille. I honestly don’t even know where to start with that one. I don’t know for how long you’ve been a fan of Harry and how intensively you stan him, but this one send my bullshit detector right off in the same way that Holivia does.

Can’t really explain it but I just smell if something isn’t right. It’s not only that way with Harry but in general. I just KNOW if something doesn’t add up.

The reason hamille wasn’t overdone and ppl believe it was bc it was marketed to be real. It wasn’t for promo in the sense Holivia is or to be shoved in ppls faces. The point was to have a relationship to fall back on when his album came out to be the “long term relationship” described in the songs. To have a certain narrative if you want to call it that.

They only were papped 2 (+the time at the Classic East concert.) They went to really popular places where you only go to when you want to get papped.

Other than that they only posted „sneaky fanpics“ which was on purpose to make them look „private“ but they were anything but that.

I actually had saved so much stuff as proof till recently when I deleted it all bc it honestly has been 3 years and I didn’t think I needed it anymore to help me explain lol. And please don’t make the mistake of looking up Hamille timelines, bc they’re all created by shipper afterwards so 95% of the shit is wrong, in the wrong order or they added the wrong pics to certain events. (If you want to look for pics, specific dates and stuff look them up individually and NOT through shipper pages or similar shit.)

Alright, back to explaining why it was so obvious. Disclaimer: I‘m just gonna point out the most obvious things but there is way more.

Harry started following Camille back in June 2016. They have several mutual friends (Waseem, Alexa Chung, Matt Hitt etc) so I assume they‘ve met before. She didn’t follow back though till shortly before the „relationship“ started. So after Harry followed her in 2016 she started to tag him in posts of her and her friends ass and did that video moaning his name while grabbing her boobs (classy 🤢). Shortly afterwards Harry unfollowed for a while and started follow her again before the mess began.

Fast forward to 2017. After doing „Dunkirk“ and about to bring his debut album out they started the first attempt at what I call a failed narrative with Tess. Not gonna go over that again bc one anon pointed out right how fake it was. They got rid of her rather quickly after she posted several times from his house which wasn’t the „private way“ they intended it to go.

So they were looking for someone to replace her. Cue Camille entering the scene.

Perfect person for the narrative as she’s half french (goes well with Dunkirk promo), is a VS model, have mutual friends and she has several ex bf who have written songs/albums about her. She’s the picture perfect muse for his second album.

Please let’s first talk about chemistry and body language bc I can’t even say how awkward they always were around each other. First the two pap pics from the sushi place and in front of the gym/ yoga place: both times both had closed off body language either crossed arms, Harry walking 3 steps ahead, faces didn’t look pleased at all and rather irritated or as of they just had a fight/ were in the middle of a fight (especially the pic from in front of the yoga place). No touching or anything involved in any pap pics. If you didn’t knew they were supposedly „dating“ you wouldn’t see it.

Let’s get to their behavior at the „sightings“: they weren’t seen much together outside of touring. But when they were seen we got pics in like 95% of the cases and people meeting them always said they didn’t seem like a couple (apart from shippers who made up shit about them all the time).

Even in every „sneaky pic“ there was as much chemistry as in Holivia -> none!

We got a few pics or even videos were you could see them backstage or besides the stage (e.g. 2017 Toronto show: while Muna is on stage Harry and Camille stand awkwardly 3 feet apart from each other, both closed off body language, not interacting with each other. You’d think as they were still in their honeymoon phase at that time and in private, seemingly not knowing that anyone could see them that they acted more coupley or at least would not stand there like 🧍🏻 🧍🏻. (Have you seen him interact with Xander while watching 1D’s opening act? Total opposite to Hamilel and they were „just friends“. Also in other pics Harry would rather cling to her bag / coat etc that he was holding so he didn’t had to touch her or anything. I think the only time we saw them „touch“ was that Classic east concert („relationship debut“) when he awkwardly held her shoulders and she was swaying weirdly. She even tried to touch him or get him to sway with her but he shot that down immediately 🤣. I could go on for longer but you get what I mean...

The next weird thing is, that she was down in literally the pit or sitting with „regular fans“ 97% of the time. Without Harry’s bodyguard around. Sometimes Jeff was with her but mostly she stood there alone. Everyone knew that she wasn’t really popular and liked around fans, so why would you put your gf in the pit with all the crazys or why would you as a gf want to be in the crowd at most shows when you could watch from the side of the stage or backstage? Also the fact that we always knew when she was at a show because she was always „spotted“ even the few times she was indeed staying at the side of the stage, she didn’t stay hidden. Sometimes we even joked about how she wanted to be part of the band or something by how close she stood there in the open. But whenever Anne for example was on tour or close friends of his or whatever they always had someone walking with them for protection and Anne never was like „in the pit“ like Camille. She never followed any of Harry‘s close private friends or family. Only people who she could gain something from. Like Lambert, Jeff, Teasedale, the Crawford’s etc. And she was never at any of the London or Manchester shows where basically all of his friends and family were. Even though she would have had definitely time bc she posted herself and friends doing nothing or trolling in LA all the time in that time. When she was at that show in Paris in 2018, she brought her friend who lives in Paris and her cousin I think. We got backstage pics of them all and Harry and Camille staying as far away from each other in that pic as possible. She was seen leaving as well after that show with her friends out through the main entrance. This was also the show Anne was at and an awkward hugging video of them both came out. Tbh it’s not clear where Camille and co were sitting bc they moved around the arena the whole night. At one point you can see Anne and Camille standing next to each other and all of a sudden Camille was „hugging“ Anne but Anne was so surprised that she was just standing there like 🧍🏼‍♀️ and waited till it was over (that „hug“ looked more like as if Camille tried to tackle Anne 😂). Also serious question and not to make it sound weird, but it deadass looked in that video as if Camille just waited for a sign to go for that hug and that it was being recorded. Because the way the camera was pointing at them all of a sudden and they were just lucky enough to catch that on camera? Yeah sure...

Not to forget, she didn’t seem to have a lanyard like for example Anne had, so everyone would knew that she could move around the arena and crew as she wanted which is fucking weird not to have as a girlfriend especially if you’re apparently on tour for many dates. This also mean she couldn’t join them when she wanted but had to contact Jeff or Harry before so they could give her a lanyards for that specific date or a sticker with AAA. Sometimes she wore a lanyard but that was literally the VIP lanyard that you got when you bought a VIP ticket like any other fan. Didn’t mean she could move freely around the venue. Even weirder is that she put that AAA sticker on the back of her phone after she left tour 2018 and placed it obviously in lots of her insta stories and posts on insta (one where you can see that sticker is still up). Fan behavior not that of a real girlfriend!

Camilles mum followed Hamille shipper accounts at one point and liked a post of them. After that shippers were unbearable. Which mum follows a shipper account on insta? 😬

What I also find weird is that she was barely working and when she did she posted only like 2 about it. I mean it’s part of her job to post stuff like that?! But she went radio silent more often then not to let fans guess if she was with him or if she would turn up somewhere.

Her friends who are all are well in their 30s or older made often „jokes“ about Harry or implied stuff about him or 1D and posted this on their stories and she was laughing with them most of the time... what a girlfriend huh...

Another thing is, she was never at his house in London. Because she was never at any of the UK dates besides that one gig he did for X -factor. They were not much in London at the same time. And when she was alone in London or with her friend, they literally stayed at an AirBnB or a hotel. So I ask you, why would she as his gf of a few months not stay at his place while she’s in the UK? Or that one time when she was in the UK making it look like she was waiting for him coming back from tour in Asia and he stayed extra long there (a week or two) even after tour in Asia finished and she was in London. But he went rather out partying in London. I don’t blame him.

When she was at his show in Milan (2017) she met a „fan“ and they took a selfie in the restroom (classy 🥴🤐) during the concert. Idk but this is one thing which is really questionable bc people were speculating she was at this show but we hadn’t gotten pics yet. So that she then took a pic with a „fan“ coincidentally seems really fishy to me. Also that said „regular fan“ had allegedly floor tickets as you could see in the videos and pics she posted in the beginning of the concert. But after the pic with Camille she all of sudden appeared on the balcony as well, close to where Camille and more VIP guests were. So how did she end up there if she didn’t have connections or was told to take a pic with her so then being on the balcony was her „reward“? To add this woman was close to Camilles age so this scenario makes just less and less sense the longer you think about it.

In May she was still on tour with her then bf in Tokio. In July just two weeks before they were seen together for the first time that awkward Grimmy interview happened. Where he specifically asked about her. And Harry said he „ didn’t know her“. Fucking weird to bring up such a private topic on radio and then be seen not even 2 weeks later. (Not gonna argue on that one, it’s the same like the wedding weekend pap walk just more subtle).

Then there were so many pics of him backstage at that concert, pics with fans, official pics, „sneaky fan sightings“ in the audience... He looked rather uncomfortable holding her shoulders while she was dancing. We know Harry goes often to concerts but when did we ever get so many pics from one? Mostly it’s a blurry pic of him or one backstage pic with the artist, not like the ones we got and certainly not that many. Plus we got an relationship article the day after.

Funny is also how he was on vacation in Muskoka with the Gerbers and Anne at the end of July 2017 shortly before the first spotting of Hamille and Camille no where to be seen.

Now I‘m gonna point out inconsistencies and such might be in chronological order, might be not.

I think the next time we saw them was a „sneaky fan pic“ (just the two of them) without a source from Beverly Hills hotel at lunch. Her friend Lauren posted a instastory being at that hotel right then and there and deleted the story like 5 minutes afterwards. She wasn’t in the pic of the „fan“ so my bet is she was the one taking the pic.

Coming to the stunt props. The „ring“ he was suddenly wearing on his pinky was from Camille. She only wore it once for a photoshoot in 2013 and then all of a sudden she wore it in every story she posted for the next 2 weeks right BEFORE he was wearing it and literally made such a show out of showing that ring that it was so cringey to watch at.

Not to forget his Pink Floyd shirt that was featured in his Rolling Stones mag interview that she not only wore but posted a few instastorys with showing it up close so every Harry fan could identify it from the distinctive holes in it.

Funny was the times she wore „his necklace“ and again posted several stories wearing it and even went to an event with it that Kendall wore before. After people pointed the connection to Kendall out, she never wore it again 😂😂 Harry being papped leaving a gym while wearing Camilles ex shirt was peak comedy.

Camille making a post saying „goodbye“ to her friend Lauren before Christmas in a really distinctive fur coat. Then New Years dinner pics with Jeff, Camille and co came out. Harry looking bored as always around her. Then the weirdest thing: he took fan pics while holding Camilles distinctive fur coat in his hands in every fucking pic. And it wasn’t that cold to wear a fur coat! Why couldn’t she hold it herself while he took the pics or Jeff or put it on the chair beside him? That wasn’t really slick of them.

Then Camille having a girls trip to Corsica and literally posting so fucking often being girls only in cars an what not. Harry was in London out with Mitch and was also seen on other occasions so I assume he went to Corsica for maybe 2 days max to get pics in. (Her cousin/ goddaughter of her mum posted a pic with Harry in Corsica in 2018 from that time). Mind you they could have just „dating“ for maybe 5 week’s max at that time bc they were never at the same place at the same time before maybe late June, and that’s when Robin died and he was home so I doubt that’s when they met. I assume 1.st proper meeting was in early July or after the Grimmy interview.

Harry filmed the Manchester special for his album in Manchester literally right before he went to HC with Camille. Yet Grimmy, one of his best friends at least at that time, never followed her or hung out together.

The next thing is her being in Holmes Chapel. She hinted at it on insta, like she did EVERY time she would be around Harry. Also appearing in every pic of him in the background when she was around. Even posted a story of random people with Harry’s voice in the background. That’s also a point why it was so obviously fake.

She posted in a train and captioned it with something like „England ❤️“ and then a cow (similar to Olivia with the hedgehog and caption) and then appeared in every pic we got of him that weekend.

She turned up to several of his shows, yet NEVER to his hometown shows (neither London or Manchester) where all his family and friends were at. She also only followed people beneficial to her career like Lambert, Jeff and co but never anyone of his real friends or family even though Gemma followed her after Christmas 2017 (which was taken as the „proof“ that they spend Christmas in HC🤦🏻‍♀️ and we got this photoshopped pic of Hamille which turned out was an old pic of originally Harry and Gemma. Glenne also never followed her and Camille was also never seen with Glenne it was only ever Jeff around and people noticed that (probably why we got now the joyride etc including Glenne).

Ok so what do we have next? The charity gig where his mum celebrated her 50th bday with everyone wearing a yellow flower crown. Everyone besides Camille. She wasn’t invited and just was brought to them while Harry was already singing a song, Gemma looking annoyed in the video her friend posted. Before Harry’s set was over someone came and took Camille with them again while Anne, Gemma and co stayed in the crowd. So why was she even going to them and didn’t stay backstage if she clearly wasn’t invited to celebrate with Anne and co and left before Harry even finished his set. We got also pics of a bday dinner with Anne, Harry, Gemma and all the friends from the concert but without Camille. This was also the gig where he was groped on stage.

After that charity gig in late October Harry went to tour in Europe. He stopped wearing the ring and seemed happier than before somehow. I went to the Cologne show and let me tell you, it was fucking nuts! His energy and the way he was smirking all the time not to forget Kiwi twice.

You’d think Camille would have been quiet now on sm that Harry wasn’t around, but it was exactly the opposite! It was like as if she had to remind everyone that that „relationship“ was still „on“ after he ditched that ring bc she was literally unbearable on insta. We got her and friends singing SOTT on karaoke (while she was wearing the Kendall necklace like mentioned previously), then she did a whole photoshoot (sorry but that’s just what it was) with her friends Djuna + Nik whit a very distinctive blue totebag Harry was carrying around just a week or two before while meeting fans in LA and she did the same thing like she did with the ring and posed with that bag in every angle. As if all that wasn’t enough in the space of 3 days she then celebrated Halloween with her friends and 2 or 3 of them wore costumes that reminded of 1D and Harry. All this happened between his cologne show and Halloween. Trolling at its best.

Then Camille decided to turn up to tour in Europe but she didn’t choose days when he actually had time off (even though she evidently didn’t do anything in LA besides trolling the last few days) so she decided to pop up when Harry had shows back to back and needed to travel to them as they were all over Europe. He had two more Berlin 7.11. and an event in London on the 6th) before she turned up on 8.11. in Amsterdam where she met Ella his cousin who followed Camille then (but Camille never followed back), 9.11. Italy x-factor, 10.11. Milan , 11.11. London X-Factor). He clearly didn’t have any time then which gets even more ridiculous if you know that she was back in LA by Monday the 13th the latest bc a photographer „exposed“ her being on set early that day. So why did she even bother turning up to tour that time when she could have done earlier and be at his homeshows?

Another thing is, when Harry went to NYC at the end of January 2018 to perform with Fleetwood Mac he didn’t take her instead he took Jeff and Xander was there as well. But no Camille. Right before was one of the rare times they got papped. Harry as always looking irritated around her. And them looking as if the soccer mom collected her son from practice😂

On his b-day her friend Lauren posted Camille chilling at their home reading and hanging out with her. Harry was officially MIA but a good friend of mine actually saw him while walking her dog the next day in Hampstead rather covered up with another guy (assuming his trainer or PA) trying not to be seen. She is not a huge fan of Harry and only knows him bc I‘ m a fan but she texted me right away saying something was weird about how he was trying to not be seen.

And on cue allegedly someone (real estate Agent from London) said he was on her flight to London over a week later (even though I knew he was already there for a while).

So the last time they were actually seen together was the day they were papped (I think that was even the day of the Grammys).

Then the thing about her quitting smoking bc she was „ dating“ Harry 🤣🤣. The way she even lied about that. She posted a video and made a few instastorys throughout that year to say how long she didn’t smoke at that time „bla, bla, bla“ and Harries ate that shit up. She was caught so many times lying in regards to that. Her friends and co were the ones to always expose her accidentally. She appeared in so many stories in her friends stories were she smoked a cigarette and not „just“ a juul like she always liked to pretend (not that a juul would be any better lol). Harry probably didn’t like it when he had to be around her for longer periods of time and she would smoke around him or smell of smoke so she had to pretend she cared for his sake and quit publicly. To say is also that she publicly started smoking again after she came back from tour end of March/beginning of April 2018.

Now speaking of the big tour in 2018. Camille seemed to had joined tour again at some point. She was at the Paris show like mentioned earlier but then only joined tour 2 dates or something later in. Someone „exposed“ her of staying with friends in each city she went on tour with at that time instead of staying with him. I think he also got fed up with her bc Harry & band + some of the crew went to museums in each city. But of course Camille had to post something every time they were at a museum and so it didn’t take long till fans caught on and turned up en masse in these museums so he couldn’t go there anymore. I would have been pissed too if I were him. And girls who’s dad is the director of one of the museums did meet Harry at the museum and he invited them to the show and backstage. These girls said Harry and Camille didn’t look or behave like a couple at the museum, he was mostly around the band and she on her own. And backstage the same thing. She was kinda just there and nothing more. Not long after that she left tour and only turned up at the Ireland show and then later the NYC and LA one.

Speaking of the Ireland show, that must have been the most awkward thing ever. I saw a few videos from people who did constantly film the side of the stage and she is staying alone there with the sound guys while Mabel was performing and Harry was standing backstage with Jeff and the band, watching Mabel and preparing for their prank they did on Mabel.

Twice Harry is walking past Camille and didn’t even acknowledge her. She was once again just standing there. You could almost feel bad for her, but only almost. Then he went to prank Mabel on stage with the rest of the band and was so affectionate with Mabel something you never saw him be with Camille.

After that show the trolling did turn down a bit for a while but like 2 days before the concert she posted a Mick Jagger pic and everyone knew she would turn up in NYC. And she proved us right bc she posted about being on a plane the minute she stepped foot in said plane 🤦🏻‍♀️. At the show itself she was in the crowd/pit with with Xander, Waseem, Matt Hitt & Jeff but Jeff had to fetch her again a lanyard at first for that day bc she still hadn’t one although allegedly „dating“ him for nearly a year at that time. You’d think she had one for the whole tour but nope. And after the concert Harry was once again out with friends while she stayed with another friend in NYC. Between the NYC and LA show she was seen being cosy with Alexander Skarsgard and then her now bf Theo Niarchos. To the LA show she turned up with Djuna, Nik and another friend. All of them sat up pretty high in the nosebleeds while Kendall and co where in the family and friends lounge right above pit. And Camille and co left a little earlier before the show finished and left through the front entrance. Suspicious is also that the „break up“ was announced like exactly on the year mark of the start their „relationship“. Sorry that I wrote so much. And I probably still missed a lot but I hope it’s gotten clear what I mean.

I'm still reading this through but wanted to post for those asking about it!!

Thank you!

You weren’t following her so this was all news to you, you took the phone from madelyn’s hands and went through her other photos most of her recent ones was of her and Drew and she always had some cute little flirty caption to go with it he had liked everyone single one and almost commented on all of them.

You looked up with tears in your eyes at your two friends who looked mad and also sad because you were hurt. You handed Madison her phone back and she quickly unfollowed Coleen but I’m doing so a story popped up that she had posted.

Madison quickly gave the phone back to you so you could view the story when you clicked on it you saw a beautiful beach that the sun was setting on and then the camera moved over and there stood your boyfriend with coleen on his back and they were both laughing the camera stopped as they both fell.

“Oh my god I can’t believe this, what do I do? I can’t call him he is with her right now and he would probably not even answer considering he is occupied” you said as tears fell down your face. Madelyn quickly scooped you into her arms rubbing your back smoothingly Madison jumped onto the bed and joined in on the group hug.

“Wait till before the dinner we have planned she won’t be there and you guys are getting ready together right?”Madison questions you just nod to what she says. “So talk to him then explain that it makes you uncomfortable and stuff, and hear him out.”

“Yeah maybe it isn’t what it looks like at all, she is probably doing it for more followers.” Madelyn rolled her eyes.

“Ok yeah, you’re right I’ll just talk to him” you sighed hugging your two best friends smiling slightly.

Later that night you drove to you and Drew’s shared apartment to get ready for this dinner, you walked into the apartment to see drew on his phone laying on the couch “oh there is my favorite girl” drew said scooping you up in his arms, “Drew look we need to talk” you said awkwardly not looking him in his eyes.

“Ok what’s up?”

“What’s going on with you and that extra Coleen? The weekly beach walks her posting photos like she is dating you? I know what she does isn’t in your control but you can tell her to stop”

Drew stood up from where he was sitting “she is just a friend I don’t see the problem In that she wants to make it as more then just in extra so I gave her some advice, and we realized we have similar interests so we just hangout and the beach walks are not weekly we don’t hang out nearly as much as her instagram shows it, come on you should know this because I’m with you” drew exasperated getting mad. “I don’t care if she is just a friend Drew be here friend that’s great help her with work I don’t care, what bothers me is she take photos of you and with you like she is your girlfriend and then I look like a dumbass to the world for not noticing it” you said raising your hands up

“Baby, who cares what others think I know that I love you and only you and I know you love me so why do you care what people think?” Drew asked “no I’m telling you I feel like a dumbass” you said tears in your eyes “do you think I would cheat on you ?” When you don’t answer he raises his voice “DO you think I would cheat on you?” He asks again just more demanding

“No I don’t think you would I trust you I don’t trust others she clearly gives 0 fucks that you have a girlfriend, she acts like it’s not a thing and just throws herself on you and you catch her and are there because you’re soo oblivious to what is happening” you said pulling your phone up to go to her Instagram only to find out you’re blocked. “She blocked me on Instagram drew, who does that unless you have something to hide?” You cried out.

Drew could tell this was really bothering you and suddenly his anger sub sided, “hey hey look at me, you’re not a dumbass. I didn’t know this stuff bothered you she is just my friend there is nothing going on there and there never will be I love you and only you. I just didn’t see what you were seeing but I’ll speak to her and get the photos taken down and tell her to back off a little ok?” Drew said hugging you and kissing your head

You nodded your head sniffling a little “now I have to text the girls and let them know it’s ok” you said getting up to get your phone that you had thrown across the room.

Drew burst out laughing “you girls are weird, hold on babe let me text the boys and gossip about it I also need them to help me pick out my outfit for tonight I have 3 options” Drew said in a girly voice mocking you, Madelyn, and Madison “ oh ahaha you’re so fucking funny” you smiled throwing a pillow at him.

RUDY:

You had just gotten back in Charleston, South Carolina to start filming season 2 of obx, the funny thing about filming obx is that you and everyone else forget you’re even working it’s really just a bunch of family goofing around. You and Rudy decided to drive down from LA to Charleston just the two of you, it was lots of fun taking lots of photos of the beautiful views and taking candid photos of Rudy without his knowledge and him doing it as well just enjoying one another’s company.

You’re on your first week of filming and so far so good you love being back at the beach with your friends catching up and making new memories, one of the extras from season 1 came back she played a touron that chugged some alcohol with Rudy as JJ and a small glimpse of a hookup was in season 1 her name was Peyton belcher, she didn’t have any lines not really so her character is kinda unknown she was called back this season to re claim her small touron roll.

Peyton wasn’t close with the cast but everyone is familiar of her so we were all happy to see her back. Rudy and you have been dating for a year now almost 2 now you played his love interest which made you guys closer and you couldn’t help but fall in love with one another, you and Rudy chase and Maddie are the biggest ships on the show your Instagram is always Bum barded with nice comments on you and Rudy’s relationship and also amazing edits of you guys you love them all and it fills you with so much happiness.

You were all on your first day off since filming again JD, Madison, you, chase, Rudy, and Madelyn. Were all on a boat drinking and enjoying the sun you were laying on a towel while Rudy had his arms wrapped around you showing JD and Chase a video he captured on your drive from LA to Charleston. You felt your phone buzz from beside you, you noticed it was a Instagram notification. Yes you have your Instagram notifications on because you forget to turn it off and you like being able to be in contact with your fans, you have made quite a few friendships with fans and talk daily.

You opened your new dm to see a fan account request to send you a message of course you accepted it always happy to talk to new people

Obxlover: hey I don’t want to bother you or scare you but I saw someone post a picture today of her and Rudy looking a little to cozy and I just wanted you to know, it’s probably nothing anyway i love you and the show. I’ll send the pic right now.

Y/N: hey you’re not bothering me at all I’m so glad you love the show and I love you too.

You looked at the photo for a minute then back at your boyfriend “hey babe, when was this taken?” You asked him showing the phone up to him he took it from you looking at it confused “oh my god this was from when we did season one” he said laughing “I don’t know why she posted it tho considering we don’t talk barely but whatever” he said handing the phone back to you brushing it off like it’s nothing you shrugged your shoulders not really caring and continuing on with your fun with your friends.

Throughout the day on the boat you hear your phone pinging with notifications you pick it up wondering what is so important to see tons of people and can accounts sending you the same picture but some with screenshots of someone asking who is in the photo with Peyton and she responded saying the cutest boy she knows with a love heart next to it. You get irritated and mad and just turn your phone off to stop hearing and seeing all the posts and comments and questions of concern for your relationship with Rudy.

You all finally reach your destination being a restaurant on the water where you can pull up and dock your boat and just walk in, you still annoyed pick all your things up quickly and make your way off the boat as quick as possible walking ahead of everyone else “hey uh is she good or?” JD asks no one in particular “she probably saw what peyton said about Rudy being the cutest guy she knows under the post she posted fans are dming me worrying about you guys relationship so I’m sure her phone is blowing up she is probably just frustrated” Madison suggested trying to catch up to you.

“Dude are you with Peyton?” Chase stops walking and asks Rudy who just stares at him shocked, “are you serious right now why would you think that? That photo was from a year ago I would never ever hurt YN ever !!” Rudy yelled looking chase dead in the eyes you and Madison were still making your way to the restaurant but stopped when you heard Rudy yelling which is not like him at all you both look at one another and turn around to see what’s happening.

“If I thought you were cheating imagine how y/n feels right now, I’m sure her phone is blowing up with people saying things about you guys and Peyton I’m sorry you’re mad but it’s the first thing that came to mind I mean it looks like it from Instagram” chase said defensively

You and Madison started walking over slowly to the scene next to madelyn and JD who were watching awkwardly off to the side. “I’m not cheating on her I would never cheat on anyone ever ! I’m In love with y/n man I want to marry her and have so many kids why would I fuck something up with some girl I barely know ?? And why are you getting mad at me for something peyton posted !” Rudy screamed in chases face Rudy was on the brink of tears you could tell cause he was slightly shaking

You dropped your bags and ran to Rudy pushing him away from chase and pulled him in your arms stroking his hair “I know you weren’t cheating that never even crossed my mind babe, yeah I’m annoyed by my phone blowing up and being told you’re with her and not me and so on and so forth and it’s annoying that she is saying all these flirty things but I was never upset with you” you whispered to Rudy but the others could hear because they all smiled and wrapped each other in a hug watching the scene unfold “I’m in love with you to but I’m only ( your age ) give it a few years before you propose yeah ?” You question looking at him

“Yeah ok, I love you” Rudy says grabbing your hands and taking you to the restaurant for some food.

What are the top 5 things you love about druck?

ok, funny story, when druck first aired i wasn’t really impressed by it. when the remakes came in their first round (france, druck and italy) i had a sideblog and i used to complain about them in there. and in that first round, druck was the one that left the best impression on my circle of skam fans. i read a lot of “druck is the one that feels the most like skam” and i just didn’t see it. not that i thought france or italy were better, but druck’s messy nature (hiatus out of nowhere, episode that instead of one week, took 2, and or episodes that was less then 15min, chats from different people, different povs for chats, even the ones with Hanna, voice messages that didn’t add anything), the fact that Jonas was terribly emotional manipulative (and fandom praised him as the best most caring Jonas), Amira being gone for half the season, etc, didn’t leave a good impression on me. but when s2 started and i saw that they were willing to tell their own story and bend skam stories to better fit them i realized that remakes could do that they just didn’t want it. and it became my favourite one

so TOP 5 

📓 1. exactly that. the way that druck don’t just change “characters clothes”, they really adapt the story. and they not only cared about cultural differences but also about their actors skills and their audience thoughts. this goes from making their Even a trans man to changing the sa storyline in s2 to adapting matteo and david’s relationship to their characters dynamics. plus, druck was the remake that better brought together the girls, that like skam, did it with something school related and that lasted for 3 seasons.

📔 2. the cast is really amazing. good actors all of them. and the characters are all well built. they all have their own characteristics and don’t feel like just some copies of skam characters. i love how druck production have workshops to get a better feel of the actors and how they are super open with their cast. things like alex lindh saying how milena had a bunch of ideas about Mia and how they use it. the same with writes from s3 taking lukas advice about some lines. and how the cast works as a group is really good, they have great chemistry, be it as a group, just the girls or just the boys, or the couples, they all work really well together.

📑 3. their insta content is amazing. it got better after s2 but since s1 you could see that they have their heart in the right place. like, the week Kiki fight with the girls and leaves the group she posts every single day with very positive posts about her “perfect life”. and that is so perfect for character building. or how the entirety of s1 Mia only posts once and it’s an enigmatic pic of a toddler’s beanie laying on the floor. she posted that the day she took Kiki to the doctor after Kiki’s meltdown in the karaoke. also very indicative of Mia’s character. and it just got better after it, we us getting 20min of content on party days during s3. their accounts looks like from real people, real teenagers took those photos. and druck team understood that they could use instagram for building characters and relationships without taking space in the main story (like kiki and carlos’ dates or david’s movie in s4) and that is clever!

🗒  4. how they introduced the boys since s1. and i guess this is related a bit with point 1 because is about adaptation. instead of doing it just like skam did, because skam was under different circumstances, they just changed it. they knew where the story was supposed to go and use it in their advantage. plus when we see carlos asking how matteo is doing or abdi gives advice to matteo in s3 it doesn’t feel weird because we’ve been seeing these guys since s1 and we know they all care for matteo. (this is not a dig on skam btw. like i said, skam was made under different circumstances, but it is a flaw some remakes have and druck is not one of them)

📋 5. german language. this might be a little bit weird for me to put here since i don’t speak a word of german aside from the keine ahnungs and genaus. but seeing german people always commenting in the tag about how certain character talks and how certain word was used, be it on the script or on a clip/episode title, always warmed my heart. i feel this is not only a sign of druck team being careful of being “fresh” and in tune with their target audience but also being smart with the language they have. and i really appreciate that.

now don’t ask me what i don’t like about druck

HOW TO WEAR A 3 PIECE SUIT: W. Nylander - PART 1

Words: 4,146

Summary: William had a new girlfriend, but it didn’t matter, he’d asked you to come to the event with him long before he’d met her, so you were still going - even if it meant third wheeling. But when Willy decided to let you wear his suit jacket over your cold shoulders, it didn’t really look like you were the third wheel anymore. You were never the third wheel, not with Willy.

Author’s note: Okay, I don’t know what kind of event the picture is from, and I am just guessing Garrison Bespoke made that green suit. Also I kind of just started this without really knowing what my intentions were, and well here we are. This started as a one shot, and at this point it’s at 12K+, and I don’t know how long it’ll end up being. (I know Kappy and Annika are no longer together and that he has a new girlfriend, but no one new about the new girlfriend when I started this story and it was just easy to use Annika). 

Warnings: Alcohol and cursing.

Masterlist linked in bio

You wrap your hands around yourself, rapidly moving your hands up and down on your own upper arms. You’ve always been a cold person, the kind of person that would never leave the house without a cardigan or a sweatshirt, even if it was the burning summer. Today was not the occasion for neither cardigans or sweatshirts, and even if you’d dug out the only long sleeved dress you had, you were cold. Really cold.

“What a surprise, you’re cold as always,” Willy mocked you. You gave him an ironic smile and kept trying to warm yourself up. William laughed but proceeded to stand behind you and then added his hands to the mix, sliding his big, warm hands up and down your arms like he’d done so many times before during your many years of friendship. You felt eyes on you and you weren’t surprised when you saw that it was Williams new flame that had her eyes on you. You could sense that she wasn’t really happy about you tagging along already when you opened the door to Willy’s car earlier that evening. But it wasn’t you that was “tagging along” - it was her. You’d been invited to this event before Willy had even met her.

You tried to smile at her, but she didn’t smile back.

“Her eyes are like daggers on me,” you whisper, making sure only William could hear you. “What?” William said, oblivious to his new girlfriends desire to Mean Girls-push you in front of a bus. Before you could further explain your fear for your own life, your best friend since high school had noticed his girlfriend’s stare. “Oh, yeah, I should probably go talk to her,” he chuckled, stopping the movement of his hands on your arms. “Yeah,” you sighed, wrapping your arms back around yourself. “Here, take my jacket, that’ll warm you up,” he smiles as he slips his dark green suit jacket off his shoulders, before helping you get it on. He squeezes your shoulders before leaving to go talk to the girlfriend who now looked like she wanted to kill the both of you - you in particular.

About half an hour later William finds you again, his jacket still warming you. “Well, she’s not in a good mood,” he whispered as he laid an arm across your shoulders. “She’s been in a bad mood since she met me, Will,” you replied, making William chuckle. “Well, she’s just gonna have to deal with it, you’re not going anywhere,” he said. “Nope,” you said, smiling.

You wanted to like her - you really did - but if she wasn’t accepting of your relationship with William, you were going to have a hard time being overly enthusiastic around her. It was like that with everyone that William brought around you, you were open and nice, and smiley and enthusiastic until the second they started to either doubt that your friendship was just that - a friendship - or just dislike you for being close to William. Luckily, William rarely had to be told, sometimes he even noticed before you.

“Hey, can I take a picture of the two of you for our instagram story?” a man from the suit company ‘Garrison Bespoke’ came up to you. The company had made a lot of suits for the guys from the team, including the one that Willy was wearing - and now you as well, with the very big, green blazer warming your freezing arms. “Sure,” William said, looking down at you for your confirmation. You nodded and followed the man to a less crowded space, where he took the picture of you with your arm over William’s shoulder and his hand on your waist. The man tagged Willy in the picture and wrote “HOW TO WEAR A 3 PIECE SUIT”.

An hour later, you were sitting with Kappy and Annika, both you and Annika with your heads leant on Kappy’s shoulders. All three of you looking down on Kappy’s phone, at an Instagram account dedicated to dog photos. You looked up when you thought you heard your name being said through all the music and noise from people chatting and laughing around you. Your suspicion was confirmed when you saw your best friend in deep discussion with his girlfriend. She was holding her phone in her hand, clearly upset about something she was showing him.

“Someone arguing about you?” Kappy asked, he hadn’t even looked up to see what you’d just seen. “I think I might be the root of all their arguments,” you sighed. “She asked me earlier, if you were always like that,” Annika said, you looked over at her. “I tried to be friendly and like, make it sound like I was on her side, so I just said that I though that you were dating when I first met you, ‘cause you know, I did, but then I learned that it’s just how you are with each other, and that you were strictly platonic,” she explained. “I mean, I get it, I understand that someone who’s just met us or like ran into us somewhere would think that, but they’ve been dating for like a month and half or something now, it’s time she accepts that I’ll always be around and I won’t change how I act around my fucking best friend just because he has a girlfriend,” you said, thinking about how you and Willy acted around each other, how he put his arms around you whenever you were standing in line, how he always had an arm around you when you were walking - how you’d always lean on him when you very tired.

But at the same time, you were leaning on Kappy right now, but Annika didn’t mind. Maybe if Willy’s girlfriend saw that, maybe she’d understand.

“Oh, I see,” you heard Kappy say. While you and Annika had discussed this “love-triangle” that was you, Willy and his girlfriend, Kappy had moved on from the dog account, and found Garrison Bespoke’s Insta story. “Oh, yeah, that’s why she’s mad,” Annika said, and you rolled your eyes. “Hey, to you it’s just a picture of you and your best friend, but to her that’s a lot more. I’m pretty sure that everyone that doesn’t know who you are would think you’re his girlfriend,” Annika tried to reason with you. “Sure, but she knows us, and she knows pretty fucking well who’s his girlfriend,” you said, before adding “Annika, if I took a picture like that with Kappy, would you be mad? Are you jealous whenever I steal Kappy’s jacket?” Annika gave up, no, she had never been jealous of your friendship with her boyfriend.

Your friendship with Kappy was far from as deep as your friendship with Willy, but you were still pretty close. But you remembered times when you’d been cold and Willy hadn’t had anything to lend you and Annika had ordered Kappy to borrow you something. You also remembered a party where there hadn’t been enough seats and you had tried to make Annika go sit in Kappy’s lap and give her your seat, but she’d told you to go sit in his lap yourself.

William stopped in front of the three of you, and you all looked up at the same time. “We’re gonna go home,” he looked annoyed, but looked to you with more of a smile on his face. “Do you want to go home now or do you want to catch a ride with someone else?” he asked, he was your ride after all. “I’ll make sure she gets home, Will,” Kappy said, laying a hand across your shoulder, knowing very well that you wouldn’t want to get in a car with them right now. “Thanks, okay, I’ll see you all tomorrow or something,” he smiled, leaning down to give Kappy the regular bro-hug, before giving Annika a light kiss on the cheek and leaving you with a hug and a kiss on your forehead, like always.

“Just keep the jacket,” he whispered before saying goodbye.

Before they where out of sight, you heard an annoyed Willy. “Relax, I just kissed her forehead.”

“Still at the party?” you read the message from Willy. You and Kappy had just sat back down again, next to Annika and Steph, after ridiculously dancing in front of the DJ for the last 15 minutes. Kappy was just showing you Annika’s story of the two of you dancing, when you felt your phone vibrate in the pocket of Willy’s blazer. You looked up to see that Kappy had been reading over your shoulder - you just looked at each other, both wondering what had gone down after they’d left the party an hour and a half prior.

“Yeah, what’s up?” you texted back, and stared patiently at the moving dots that indicated that he was texting you back. A few seconds later you got his reply “I’m coming to get you.” You stayed seated, chatting with Kappy and Annika, before you got a text message saying that he was there, just ten minutes later. You hugged your friends, thanking them for the good company and scampered off to get your coat from the wardrobe.

“That was quick,” you said as you climbed into the front seat of Willy’s car, remembering how it had taken you at least 25 to get there. “Yeah, I was kind of already on my way,” he smiled. “Here, I went by your place and brought you some sweats and your sneakers,” he grabbed a bag from behind your seat and dumped it in your lap. “Oh, thank you!” you smiled, already starting to change into the warmer and more comfortable outfit. “Well, I actually went by your place to see if you were home, first, and then went in to get you your clothes,” he said. You thanked him again for bringing your clothes from the inside of your sweatshirt.

When you finally emerged, and found Willy plotting in the closest McDonalds on the GPS. After so many years of friendship, you had your special after party routine. You would go get McDonalds (change into sweats first, if possible), and then you would gossip about whatever happened during the night while stuffing your faces with fries and whatever burger you’d bought. This time Willy went through the drive through, though, and went to park in a lot that overlooked a suburb.

“So, are you going to tell me about what happened tonight?” you said through a mouthful of your chicken salsa burger. “You first,” William looked straight ahead, sipping on his milkshake. “Well, I went to this party with my best friend and his girlfriend who wants to kill me-” William snorted, but you continued, unfazed. “-and then I got really cold and wore my best friend’s jacket, making his girlfriend want to kill us both. And then I looked at dog pictures with Annika and Kappy, and then discussed how I am pretty sure I am the root of all the problems in my best friend’s relationship - and then I made fun of Kappy in front of just about everyone that attended the event, before Kappy and I had a dance off, which no one won due to fatigue.. and then I was picked up by my best friend who’s about to tell me why he’s acting weird,” you then proceeded to shove five to ten fries into your mouth. You looked over to William who was now leaning his head on the window.

“Uhm, I had to take my new girlfriend to a party that I already had a date to, so she wouldn’t kill me, and then she still wanted to kill me, you know, because I have a best friend who’s a girl. So, we ended up leaving because we were arguing about my relationship with my best friend, who apparently looks more like my girlfriend than she ever has and ever will - especially after a certain insta story. And then she claimed that I would never fall in love with her, because she thinks I’m in love with my best friend,” you almost choked on your milkshake, “and now she isn’t my girlfriend anymore,” he finished his recap of his night.

You turned your head away from the view of the suburb, over to your best friend who was now leaning his head back on the headrest, staring up into the grey ceiling of the car. “Uhm, I’m sorry?” you tried, but you both knew you weren’t sorry about his breakup, not when she was like that. “You could say it was a mutual decision,” he added, and you nodded, turning back to the suburb in front of you. You both sat in silence.

“I’m sorry, she said what?” you broke the silence. You couldn’t believe it.

“She said that she thinks I will never lover her, or anyone that isn’t you,” he sounded annoyed, or mad, or something. “I’m pretty sure you heard me the first time,” he added, his voice lower as he turned away from you, looking out the driver side window again.

“Why are you snapping at me?” you said, your voice more weak than you wanted it to be. To say that William snapping at you was rare would be an understatement. “I’m just saying that it’s fucked up that she would say that, obviously you’re not in love with me,” your voice came out stronger this time.

William mumbled something before he disappeared out of the car, into the cold Toronto night, slamming the door behind him. To say that you had no clue what was going on was an understatement, as well. So you braced yourself for the cold and went out after him.

“Willy?” you called out, annoyed that he would just leave. There was no answer. “William?” you tried again, softer this time. “I’m right here,” he answered, he hadn’t gone far, but it was hard to see him in the dark. You walked over to him. “Can you please just tell what the hell is going on?” you couldn’t remember the last time you and William had an argument about something that wasn’t something silly like who’s getting the last piece of pizza or where to eat - not that this was a full on fight, you didn’t even know what you were fighting about. It was just, you weren’t used to your best friend snapping at you, or walking out like that.

Because you never fought.

“Is this about your breakup or is this about something I’ve done? Are you blaming me for your breakup? I don’t understand what’s going on, William,” you sighed, searching your brain when he didn’t answer you. You even used his full name, which you never did. He took a deep breath before he pulled your already freezing body into him, tucking your head underneath his chin before he embraced you.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it was wrong of me to snap at you like that,” he talked into your hair. “Just tell me what’s going on, Willy,” you whispered, sliding your arms around him. Your head moved with his chest, and you felt him take another deep breath. “Promise you won’t run away,” he whispered. “I promise, Willy, I would never,” you said, and you meant it. You felt him kiss your head, before he drew another deep breath.

“You didn’t hear what I said, did you? Before i left the car, I mean,”

“No, I didn’t,”

“I said, would it be so hard to believe?” he told you, but you didn’t understand what he meant. “Would it be so hard to believe that I could be in love with you?”

It was a question, but it didn’t sound like one. All you heard was in love with you, and you swallowed hard, blinking into his winter coat. You hugged him harder, willing him to keep talking. He hugged you harder as well.

“She’s right, you know, she’s right about everything. Well, not about there being something between us, but I think she knew that, I think she just wanted to blame you for us not working, but she knew all along. She said it was obvious from the second she met you, or when she saw us together, how I act around you,” his voice was laced with what sounded like fear and relief, at the same time.

“But how we act around each other, it’s a two way street, Willy,”

“Yeah, but you’re like that with everyone, just a few hours ago you were leaning on Kappy.  And I’m pretty sure you’ve sat in the lap of every one of my friends at some point, including my brother. And she saw that, but again, I think she just wanted to blame you and not me,” he explained. You pulled back to look at him, but regretted it immediately, realising how much harder it was to look at him - to see the hurt in his eyes when he told you all his suppressed feeling for you.  

“So, you’re telling me that you’re in love with me?” you asked, following his eyes as he looked everywhere but at you.

He nodded. And you nodded as well, hoping it would help you understand what he’d just told you.

“For how long?” you asked, your voice coming out as a whisper, even if you hadn’t meant for it to.

“I don’t really know, probably longer than I would like to admit,” he said, still not looking at you. “Do you remember Jessica?” he asked, looking down at you just long enough to see you nod. You remembered Jessica, they started dating in high school, but she broke up with him sometime during her third semester of college. You’d liked Jessica, until she broke his heart, at least.

“You’ve always talked about her as the one who broke my heart,” he said, and you thought that you might have heard him chuckle. You’d gone back to having your face pressed to his chest, and he felt you nodding at his statement. “She was the one that made me realise that I was in love with you, you know, or she said that she thought I was more in love with you than I was with her, and I didn’t understand it at the time, but I spent a lot of time thinking about it afterwards - so when you talked about her as she’d broken my heart, I just let you because I didn’t want you to know what I was actually thinking about,” he told you.

You both stayed quiet for a while after that.

“It’s a lot to take in, Willy,” you said, breaking the silence after five minutes or so. “I know, I know,” he whispered. “Come on, let’s get you home, you’re shivering,” he started walking back to the car, his arm still around you. You climbed into the car again, letting the warm air embrace you - it didn’t take long for you to fall asleep.

You woke up when your body hit the bed. How William had managed to get carry you inside without waking you, you didn’t know. But you waking up sure made the task of getting you out of your coat a lot easier. You’d barely opened your eyes and hadn’t said a word until he was pulling the covers over your body, when you reached out to take his hand.

“Just stay here, we’ll talk in the morning,” you mumbled.

“It feels wrong to sleep in your bed now, now that you know,” he whispered, you could see him lightly shaking his head ‘no’ in the darkness of your room. You sat up, fighting the sleepiness. “Just stay, William,” you said, watching him as he gave in, letting his winter coat fall to the floor along with his sweatpants and hoodie, leaving him in boxers and his t-shirt. “Come on,” you said, lifting up the covers for him to crawl under. He laid down and tugged the covers over the both of you, before you moved closer, laying your head on his chest.

He hesitated a little bit, but soon you felt his arms around you, pulling you in.

When William woke up, you were sitting in the chair by your bedroom window - a towel wrapped around your head, a fresh set of sweats and a cup of hot tea in your hands.

You’d woken up early, way too early, considering that it was close to 4 AM when you came home. You’d woken up around 9, your head flooded with memories from last night. You didn’t quite know what to do about this new found information about your best friend.

Yesterday he had a girlfriend, today he was in love with you.

He’d been in love with you for years.

You felt William looking at you, and you decided that it was time to talk - for you to talk. “I used to have the biggest crush on you, you know,” you said, still looking out the window. “I didn’t know,” he said, his voice still heavy with sleep.

You loved his voice like that.

“Back when I sat behind you in english class. I thought it was so cute how you never understood the endings of the books we were reading. It didn’t matter what book it was, you never understood them. And when you finally did understand one, you were so happy with yourself. And every time we were told to turn around to the person behind you to discuss assignments or whatever, I would get so smiley and blushy,” you heard him chuckle.

“Yeah, I remember that,” he smiled.

“But then school ended, and I spent the summer in Colorado with my cousins and I guess my crush just faded. At least I wasn’t blushing all the time when we were paired together in chemistry in fall, and we actually got to know each other,” you got up, settling your now empty mug on your nightstand, before climbing back into bed, next to him.

“I think I can feel like that again, I think I can feel that way about you sometime in the close future,” you said, fiddling with his hand.

“You think?” he asked, looking up at you. You were sitting up against the headboard, while he was still laying with his head on the pillow.

“Yeah, I do, I just think that I’ll need some time to get used to the idea of being more than friends. And I’ll have to dig this attraction towards you back out, from the back of my mind,” your hand had now moved into his. “Don’t get me wrong, I’ve always thought you were ridiculously handsome,” you chuckled, making him laugh.

“But you know, these are all thoughts and feelings that I’ve just pushed to the back of my head for so many years, it’s gonna take a little time to get them back out, you know, and I know for sure that I’m going to be awkward as heck doing it,” he laughed again. It felt good to make him laugh.

“I wouldn’t expect anything else,” he smiled, reaching out to tug you closer, and you placed your head on his chest again. “It’s just, I don’t really know how to act around you now,” he said, the confidence in his voice gone. “This is good, Willy, just keep doing what you’ve always done,”

“Take me on a date,” you texted William.

It was 2 AM and you’d been laying awake thinking about him - you tried thinking about what a couple normally would do, and you soon realised that it wouldn’t be a very long way to go, from where you were now, to what it would be like to actually be in a relationship with him.

He kissed your forehead every time he said goodbye, and you told him he looked handsome whenever he put on a suit. He would always wrap his hands around you when you waited in lines, and you would lean on him whenever you were tired. Not to mention that he always gave you his clothes to wear when you were cold.

As for being in a relationship with him, it wasn’t something you’d put much thought to during the last 5 or 6 years, but to say you couldn’t see yourself with him in the future, would be a lie.

And you loved him to death, so you figured you’d just have to slowly ease into it.

“Right now?” he texted you back.

“No, stupid. You should be sleeping by the way, you need to be up early,”

“Well, stop texting me, then. I’ll pick you up at 6,” you smiled as you read his reply.

“Fiiiine. I’ll be ready.”

only the lonely survive // colby brock - chapter fifteen: and about forgiveness, we’re both supposed to have exchanged

A/N: hey guys :) here’s the next chapter. some crazy stuff happens in this, so let me know what you think. i’ll be coming out with another request at some point soon, so be on the lookout for that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After talking to Casey for over an hour about Colby and Brennen, I finally went to my room. Removing my dress from the other night and changing into pjs, I scrolled through my phone again out of boredom. I was gaining a lot of followers and subscribers, my dms were filled to the max, and people were tagging me in everything.

This is all a bit overwhelming.

I clicked on my username on insta and went down to my secret account: my Sam and Colby fan account. No one knew of golbrockloves, mostly because I never talked about it. I especially haven't brought it up to Colby.

How do you tell the guy you made out with that you have an instagram dedicated to him and his best friend without looking creepy? Exactly.

I slid down my feed, only to be met with pictures and videos of me. One video was a screen recording of my snapchat from yesterday, me and Colby in the store.

Why does that feel like such a long time ago?

The next couple pictures were from people's stories: screenshots of me and Colby dancing together, me and Colby next to each other in the kitchen, me and Brennen.

I bit my lip anxiously as I clicked on the comments. They weren't exactly bad, but they weren't great.

 snc3lifee who the fck is she?????

samnccolbby her @ is skyebennett

lovely_sncc is she dating colby or brennen?

saramcc OMG COLBY AND HER ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER

solby5vr she better stay away from colby!! HES MINE!!!!

dolansnc why can't colby stand next to a girl without everyone shipping her with him? jesus christ this fandom

 It was strange to see fans talk about me, as if they didn't know I would see what they were saying. Maybe having this fan account was a good thing: I could see how they all honestly thought about me without anyone knowing.

After reading more and more comments, I could tell most believed me and Colby were together. Or maybe me and Brennen. No one was certain. All they knew was that I was close to both. A lot of fans kept saying that I wasn't dating either one of them and that I was just friends.

While still lurking around on insta, I got a bunch of notifications from my personal account. I switched over to it to see I was tagged in multiple snippets of videos. Clicking on the it, I saw the face of Travis Marcus. He had uploaded a new video to his channel, titled "my truth".

Oh God...

I went to youtube and saw his video was slowly starting to trend. I clicked play and sat down on my bed.

Travis sighed, glancing up at the camera. "Hey guys, it's your boy Travis. Um, I have a lot to get off my chest right now. I'm sorry my energy isn't as high as it usually is. But, I needed to set the record straight. There is a lot of shitty things going around about me lately and I wanted to clear the air and tell you the truth."

"Skye, did you see-" Casey stated, dashing into my room. She stopped when she saw my phone in my hand. We both stood there watching Travis.

"So, as you guys know, I was recently accused of doing something terrible... of bullying another youtuber. I won't say her name because she doesn't deserve any more hate... or clout." His lips twitched, trying to cover up a smirk.

"As if he didn't tag you in the fucking video. Fucking asshat." Casey mumbled.

"One of her friends, Brennen Taylor, an old viner, tweeted that I made fun of her at a party recently. I just wanted to say that this is completely false. What actually happened was that I introduced myself to her. She claimed she was a huge fan and that she wanted to… get with me." Travis nodded his head uncomfortably.

What the fuck.

He continued. “I declined because she was extremely intoxicated. She then proceeded to get upset with me, made a huge scene, got kicked out of the party, and then I can only assume went to Brennen. He was also really drunk, which is why he tweeted in the first place.”

Casey gasped. “Are you kidding me? I'm gonna kill h-”

I hushed her, my eyes never leaving the screen.

“I have footage from that night, because I vlogged it. However, the audio got fucked up so I'm sorry for how muffled it is.” He admitted.

The screen changed to the night of the party. I saw myself standing in front of Travis, talking to him. The audio was complete garbage, low and muffled. I glanced over at the camera, only a moment later Travis nodded at it, smirking. Something I didn't see at the time. My face contorts for a second, he shrugs, and I shake my head, leaving immediately afterwards.

“Now, does that look like I was making fun of her? No. I would never do that. She was upset because I respectfully told her I didn't want to get with her after all her advances. She literally tried later that night to dance up on me, but I just wasn't into her. After I filmed this, she got kicked out for trying to hook up with another youtuber. I think she's desperate for views and just wants more followers.” He declared.

“So, don't give her that attention. And, don't send her hate guys. I wish her and Brennen the best honestly. Sorry this video is so short, I needed to get this off my chest. I hope you all can understand. Peace.” He threw up a peace sign, and then pushed his hand into the lens of the camera, the video fading to black.

Stunned silence fell over the room. Neither one of us could speak.

“Is this real life? I kinda feel like I've had this nightmare before.” I whispered.

“He can't be serious. Does he really think he can get away with this?” Casey shook with rage.

“Why wouldn't he be able to? He has almost a million followers. I just passed 2,000, if I haven't already lost all of them.” My voice faltered.

“I'm gonna call Brennen and see if he can help.” Casey left quickly, pulling out her phone.

I laid my back against my bed, closing my eyes. I took a couple deep breaths, trying to slow down my heart-rate.

That's it.

I sat up quickly. I went over to my desk and pulled out my camera. Setting it up on my tripod, I got comfortable in my chair.

I sighed deeply, then turned my camera on

"Hi everyone. I didn't think this amount of drama would happen to me so soon in my youtube career, yet here we are." I joked.

"I'm sorry if this video is a little all over the place. I'm not editing it. I'm just gonna post it as is.” I clapped my hands together, trying to stop their shaking.

I cleared my throat. “If you don't know, I'm the girl Travis Marcus made fun of. Or he claims he didn't make fun of. I need you all to know that he is lying. I'm not sure why when he could easily just admit he fucked up and apologize. Instead, he did this.”

“I want to tell you guys what actually happened that night…” I stated, looking directly at the camera.

I began to explain that party in detail: how Travis came up to me, how he flirted with me, only for him to make fun of my appearance and film it. I then went on to explain how I left the party because of him ruining my night, only to be told a couple hours later that he got kicked out of the party because he started a fight with Sam, Colby, and Brennen by throwing his drink on Kat.

"I have four witnesses, plus my best friend. And Big Nik's security team could easily corroborate my story. On top of all that, I have this."

I grabbed my phone, pulled open my dms on twitter, and found Travis' message to me. I showed the message to the camera, letting it focus on his words.

Travis: please tell Brennen to take down the tweets. Things are getting out of hand. I apologize for what I said.

"Why would you apologize for something that you didn't do? All of this could have been avoided if you wouldn't have made fun of me. I get you're 'famous' and have the ego the size of a tractor-trailer, but that doesn't mean you get to make fun of random people because they don't fit into what you think is attractive. Be nicer. Be kind. And stop lying to make yourself look good."

I reached over and turned off my camera. I paused, my breath hitching in my throat for a moment.

Holy fuck, did I just film that?

/  /  /  /

I felt cozy surface beneath me tremble slightly. Three times in a row. I opened my eyes, glancing around my dark room.

Was all of that a dream?

I slid my hand over my bed, finding the item that was vibrating. I turned it over, my eyes closing instantly from the bright light. Squinting, I saw messages from all different people. But the most recent made me smile softly.

Colby: are you up to talk?

I shuffled my body upwards, leaning over and turning my light on. I gazed over at my sleeping laptop, my camera still plugged in. The memories flooded back to me. I uploaded a response to Travis, and instantly fell asleep from anxiety induced exhaustion. I didn't even want to see if anyone supported me or not.

Unlocking my phone, I went to Colby's message immediately.

Skye: just woke up. i'm down to talk.

Moments later, my phone started ringing. I answered it. "Hey Colby."

"Hey. How are you doing?" He asked sweetly.

I chuckled. “I've been better, that's for sure.”

“How long have you been asleep? Everyone's been trying to contact you.” He stated.

I shrugged. “Right after I uploaded the video, I fell asleep. I was just too stressed.”

“I'm sorry to hear that.” He apologized.

I held back a smile. “It's okay. I'm alright.”

“So, I guess you don't know what happened.” Colby replied.

“No, what did?” I questioned.

“Travis deleted his video.” He deadpanned.

I sat up quickly. “Wait what?”

“Well, after you posted yours, Brennen and I talked to Big Nik and we found out from him that his friend John was recording a snapchat during the fight that occurred with all of us in it. It shows Travis getting pulled out of the party yelling essentially what he said to you at everyone.” He informed me, continuing. “He cussed and screamed while he got kicked out, and John sent the video to Messy Monday, and they uploaded it to twitter. It's been trending for the past couple hours.”

“Holy shit. So, the snapchat proved me right?” I muttered.

“Yep. Travis took down his video. He's been radio silent since.” He laughed.

“He probably left a few choice words for me.” I said, rolling my eyes.

“If he did, let me know. I got some unfinished business with him.” Colby joked, causing me to let out a laugh. “Besides, before he deleted his video, Sam, me, Kat, and Brennen all came out on twitter and said that you were right. On top of that, apparently a thread was created of how rude Travis has been to fans. So... he's kinda done for.”

“I wouldn't be so sure of that. He'll be back in less than a month.” I scoffed, pulling my blanket closer to me.

“Well, even if he does come back, everyone will know you were right.” He reassured.

I picked at my blanket. “Tell that to his fans.”

“Enough about Travis. Is there anything I can do to get your mind off of him?” He requested.

I sighed. “Like what?”

“Go out with me.” I could hear the smile in his voice.

“What?” I choked.

“Go out with me. Where ever you want to go, I'll take you there.” Colby promised.

“When are you taking me out?”

“How about tomorrow? Say eight P.M?”

A smile rose to my lips. “Okay... that sounds good.”

“Where do you want to go?” He inquired.

“If you don't mind it... I kinda want to stay in for a bit. Hide away from the world. Maybe you could come here? We could order take out and watch some movies. And cuddle?” I bit my lip nervously.

He agreed happily. “That sounds fantastic.”

“Good. I can't wait.” I beamed.

“Is there anything else you want to talk about?” He mumbled, yawning.

I shook my head. “No. Besides, you sound like you need to go to sleep.”

“I'll stay up if you want me to.” He admitted.

“No. No, I'm okay really. You should get some sleep.” I declared.

“Alright. I'll see you tomorrow.” He responded.

“It's a date.” I smiled.

“Goodnight, Skye.” He whispered.

I giggled quietly. “Goodnight, Colby.”

sparkling wine | brent (& malia)

summary: Brent picks out some wine.

He had just over forty-eight hours left before his life, regardless of the outcome, took a turn.

Don’t be so dramatic, Vale.

Brent was standing in an icy-white glow of the refrigerated section, holding two nearly identical bottles of sparkling wine, trying to will himself to calm down. Pleasant, aimless string music poured out from the speakers hanging in the store. For an early afternoon on a Thursday, the vineyard was oddly crowded. Just outside the small, cozy shop, lined with more varieties of wine than he could count, were acres of land, lush and green and lovely, basking under a brilliant summer sun. It was beautiful here, another idyllic slice of Long Island not unlike the more rural parts of New Athens. He could barely appreciate any of it.

Somewhere in the back of his mind Rae and Hazel were laughing at him, demanding to know why this wasn’t done yet. Miranda’s latest text, confirming the details of the night in question, taunted him. Brent stared up at the ceiling while his heart fluttered around in his chest. Saturday felt too soon, but also so far away. How could he keep it together until then?

He glanced down at the wines once again, worry gnawing away at him. It had been about five minutes, already, and he’d reread the notes on each bottle several times over while retaining almost none of it. This is such a small detail, Brent, just pick one. But when he finally made up his mind and moved to put the reject back on its shelf, a third option appeared in front of him. Why were there so many vegan options? On any other day, he’d be happy about this, but right now he was cursing the variety.

“Brent?”

He recognized the voice, but couldn’t quite place it. He didn’t have to wonder for long, though, because as soon as she called his name, Malia bounded up to him, beaming.

Brent blinked at her, surprised. For a split second, he wondered if he was seeing things. “Wow, hi.”

“This is so weird!” she chirped. “How are you? Why are you here? Did you come alone or is Macey around?”

“Nope! Just me,” he said quickly. “Are you here with anyone?”

Malia shook her head. “We’re both solo, I guess.” She pulled her phone out. “Can I take a picture? I think it’s literally hilarious that we ran into each other, I wanna put it on Insta.”

Brent faltered, then nodded his head. It’s not like it was a secret that he was here. “Sure,” he replied, leaning down to get in the frame with Malia.

Once she took the picture, she immediately started typing again, but paused to glance at the bottles in front of them. “Oooh, I love these. Are we getting the same thing?”

“Um,” he started while she reached past him. Her hand closed around the neck of the bottle that he decided against. “I was thinking, this one?” Brent pointed to the new, third option.

“That one is good, too! Very sweet. Actually,” Malia plucked that one off the shelf, too. “This place is great. I keep saying New Athens should work with them. Have you been here before?”

“No, this is my first time. I just wanted to get uh, something different than what’s at the store in town.”

“Exactly my point! Imagine if we could just hop across town for this? Anyway, I guess you’re planning something super fancy and special?” she asked, and she was clearly just making conversation, but Brent felt another wave of nervousness crash over him. Malia paused, then her smile got a little wider, a little more excited. “Brent, what’s this for?”

“Dinner,” he answered, a little too fast.

Malia wasn’t buying it, and it showed. She posted their picture— he felt the buzz in his pocket of her tagging him in her story— and pocketed her phone. Her full attention was on him. “Dinner for what?”

Brent’s face was a traitor, and he knew it without having to see. She gasped quietly and he turned away, blushing. “Oh gods, Mal, please don’t say anything.”

“Brent! I would never! I’m very good at keeping secrets.” She grabbed his sleeve and tugged excitedly. “This is so great! I have been waiting for this moment, you have no idea. It’s been like, five years right? Does she have any idea at all?”

“No.” Brent ducked his head, putting a hand over his mouth. “I don’t think so? I don’t know.”

“Awwww, Brent, don’t be nervous! She’s totally going to say yes.”

He knew that. Maybe it was presumptuous or foolish, but he wasn’t worried about that. He was just stunned, just overcome with emotion every time he thought about it.

“I’m not. I’m...” He swallowed, then leaned against the cool glass door. “I don’t know.”

“Come on. Are you done shopping? Let’s check out.”

They walked up to the front of the store; Malia insisted on buying his bottle— “it’s my congratulations!”— and guided him outside. She plopped into a bench and motioned for him to join her. 

“When is this happening?”

“Saturday,” he answered, his head in his hands. “There’s like... this castle, it’s not far from here, they have a restaurant and a nice courtyard and...”

“A castle!” she exclaimed, then lowered her voice, looking apologetic. “Brent, that sounds perfect.” She gave his arm a small squeeze. “I’m so happy for you.”

“I’m... Yeah, me too.” He laughed a bit, knocking his fist lightly against his forehead. “I’m not nervous, but I’m... Overwhelmed?”

“Of course you are!” Malia was practically bouncing in her seat. “Brent, you love her a lot, this is big. You’re probably feeling so much it’s all one big jumble. There’s like, not a word for it.” She nudged him, and he felt a little tingle spread from his chest, traveling outward. “But you got this. She loves you sooooo much, Brent, and you are like, perfect for each other. I’m like... Okay, I’m revealing myself as a big big Brent and Macey shipper. This is gonna be magical!”

Brent took a deep breath. She was right. He felt a little warmer, a little calmer. “Yeah. Okay, okay.” He looked over to her and smiled.

She smiled back, her eyes getting misty. “Wow, I might cry. I remember when you were this big grouch. I judged you so hard.”

He laughed. “So when I tried to convince you to date me, that was never gonna happen?”

“Oh, gods,” Malia waved her hand. “No, it wasn’t, sorry. But look at you now! About to be a married man! Well, an engaged man. Basically the same thing.” She pulled him in for a hug.

Brent let himself linger in the embrace for a moment, and when he pulled back, he was well and truly blushing. “Thanks.”

“Of course!” Malia hopped up to her feet, picking up the bags with his and her wine. “Okay, so, I took a car here, and I think, it would be super cute and nice of you if you gave me a ride home!”

With a laugh, Brent rose as well. “Of course, Mal.”

“Yay! Thank youuuu.”

Brent guided them back to his car with an easy, relaxed gait. He couldn’t explain why— maybe it was some Aphrodite-sponsored confidence— but he felt better. Less nervous, more excited. He imagined Macey, in two days' time sitting across from him, aglow by candlelight. He imagined her standing in the spot in the courtyard that he’d already picked out, under the sparkle of starlight. His heart stuttered again, but he knew better now than to call it nerves.

“You okay?” Malia asked, peeking over the top of his car.

Brent came back to this afternoon and nodded, fumbling for the keys. “Yep. Just...” She smiled knowingly at him. “Yeah. I’m ready.”

Spring 2019 Fan Fest Prompt List

Hey fan-festers! 

We’re happy to say that we received 81 prompts this time around, and we spent the last few days distilling all those amazing and creative prompts down to a list of 63 prompts! (If you’re keeping count, that’s far more than last year’s 48!) 

As with last year, we had some repeat prompts and prompts that were similar enough that it made sense to condense them under one item. Additionally, most of the prompts we distilled down to a few words for the sake of having a concise list! Again, like last year’s fest, we’re providing the full text of the original prompts under the cut, in case you’re looking for more details to get started!

You’re free to create any kind of fanwork based on the below prompts! There’s no minimum word count and no rules on what to create, or even how many - if you want to combine prompts, that’s cool! If you’re called to make more than one thing, that’s awesome too! The only limit is that this fest runs from now until April 15th - so if you’re creating something, make sure you post it and tag it with #bennguinfanfest so we can share it to this tumblr! If you’re posting to AO3, the collection is now open for submissions as well, so make sure to include your work there so everyone can find it!

One final thing: even if you didn’t submit prompts, feel free to participate and join us on the discord! We’ve set up a discord server here: bennguinfest on discord to stay connected, inspire each other, and have fun! It’s a great group and really active, so don’t be shy!

1. Matchmaking dogs: Tyler’s dogs want to get their human with a certain cow-eyed captain

“well this is really awkward considering the last time we saw each other, i was screaming at you to never talk to me again, but like, my dog recognized you all the way across the park and literally dragged me over here because she misses you so hi” AU

2. Space AU (ex. Star Trek, Firefly, or something else entirely)

3. It's Tyler's birthday and at first Jamie gives off the feeling that he's forgotten and this hurts Tyler but it turns out that that Jamie wakes Tyler up at midnight on his birthday with two tickets to an offseason trip

4. I want a fic that REALLY captures what it would be like if two NHL players were to come out in 2019. I'm talking teammate reactions, press reactions, social media, family, the whole shebang. I wanna see the real raw reactions and the struggle the guys would have to go through. I would also loooove if you could fit Jamie proposing to Tyler in there somewhere but it isn't a necessity.

Jamie has a hard time dealing with how public Tyler’s life is, with the insta stories and with random people filming him all the time. It feels like it’s only a matter of time before their relationship is exposed because of how much Tyler is in the public eye. Jamie doesn’t want to break up but it seems like that’s the only choice he has. He doesn’t want to do this so much that he calls a press conference and comes out of the closet.

Jamie and Tyler have been dating since 2014 and he’s tired of hiding it. So with Jamie’s consent he posts a cute photo of them being a couple and writes a heartfelt monologue about their story. And the whole hockey community blows up about it. And it’s kinda about how they deal with being and out couple and Tyler posting obnoxiously cute couple photos on his Instagram. Sorry this prompted is a mess I just want Tyler to be a troll and post cute cliche couple photos on Instagram of him and Jamie and the world loading their minds about it.

Jamie and Tyler come out to the team about them dating. Management wants to keep their relationship secret so they make Jamie fake date someone. And him and Tyler struggle with the stress that puts on them.

realistic consequences of being together with the team

5. Tyler and Jamie are super close but super oblivious to the fact that they act like a literal couple. Jamie has a gf and she hates the fact that it seems like Jamie cares more about Tyler than he does her.

6. Fluffy fic where Jamie still plays hockey, he meets tyler and they fall in love and tyler becomes an nhl wife/husband/boyfriend.

7. Parallel universes -- somehow Tyler (or Jamie) finds himself in an alternate universe where his life is radically different (for better or for worse) which makes him realize how much his relationship to Jamie (or Tyler) means.

waking up in the future/alternate reality fic

8. Jamie and Tyler are abducted by aliens and taken to a faraway planet where they are prisoners in a bizarro planet. Is it real or is it a nightmare though?

9. jamie and tyler are in danger and major trouble when their identities as superheroes are revealed and bad guys are after them.

powers/mutant AU (as in pick one, not all at the same time) One hides their ability from the other, and when the other finds out, its...not good

Superhero AU! Are they superhero partners? Is one of them a superhero and can't date the other because he has to keep him safe? Are they both trying to keep their secret identities secret from each other while simultaneously dating in both iterations? Up to you, or anything else!

10. Amnesia angst for the win - Jamie gets a particularly hard hit, wakes up and can remember everyone except for tyler (maybe not explicitly, say they can *remember* them, but not remember that they've been dating for eight months now) cue tyler avoiding jamie because its too hard him to be around him

11. soulmate au! people are born with blackmarks - on their hands, their faces, their skin in general - the black marks is the first place their soulmate would touch them. Jamie was born without a mark. Tyler was born with two pitch black palms. Years after tylers been traded to the stars, Jamie falls asleep, and tyler can't help but run his fingers through Jamie's hair, just once, and then he looks down at his hand and the tips of his fingers are colored, and so are the few strands of Jamie's black hair.

13. Rupaul’s Drag Race au. Tyler and Jamie are competing against each other but are constantly talking about how much they like each other/are attracted to each other in the confessional.

14. groundhog day au (aka, tylers/jamies day keeps getting reset, again and again until they get together finally and wake up the next day)

15. alternate history, tyler is never traded to dallas, but they still somehow meet and fall in love anyway

16. cop AU, where in tyler the rookie transfers and get stuck with Jamie the sorta senior to show him the ropes. Jamie gets attached. And that’s...a problem, in their line of work. Or at least it is for him.

Uber driver! Jamie picks up Tyler from a one night stand

23. breakup and makeup but spanning over seasons - no cheese plots

A furiously protective Jamie intervenes and despite holding his own, Jamie is beaten up and him and tyler end up in a dumpster.

28. A University fic where Tyler is out and proud and gay and Jamie is still trying to figure out his sexuality but he's having a hard time. No homophobic Jamie tho please, just a guy trying to figure himself out. Would love if he would rely on his family throughout the fic for advice.

Mean What You Mean (Colby Brock) - Part 4

Part 4:

“Hello and welcome back! If you don’t know who I am, I’m Josephine and this is my YouTube channel. For today’s video, I read comments on my last videos and decided to try something new. A few months back on my Instagram, I expressed an interest in dyeing my hair. So, three or so days ago, I put a poll on my Insta story with two color options.” I picked up the two color samples from my dresser. “One is a dark maroon color and the other is a purple color. I have a friend who does hair so I thought I would have her help me. But we're going to get coffee first! Let's go." Tucker and I went out to my car and got in. I knew this part would be a time lapse so we set the camera facing out and strapped it down. "Why do you want to dye your hair?" Tucker asked. I shrugged. "Just for something different, I guess." "Okay, well, I like the maroon color but I think you should do it like highlights." I glanced over at him. "Really?" "Yeah." He nodded. "I think it would look really cool." "Thanks, Tuck." Tucker put a hand on my thigh and I slipped my fingers into his. "Are you excited for LA?" "Yes. I'm so excited!" I giggled. "Ah! I've wanted to go there since I was nine years old." "I'm glad you're excited." "Thanks." "What's the first thing you want to do when we get there?" Tucker asked. I bit my lip. "I'd like to go to the Walk of Fame and the Hollywood sign." Tucker squeezed my hand. "Okay. Walk of Fame and Hollywood sign, first." "Can you grab my camera? We're almost there." "Of course. What else am I here for?" I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, right." * "Okay, here it is. The reveal." Aly turned the chair around and I gasped. "Oh my God! It's perfect!" I gushed. "You like it?" Aly asked. I nodded. "Yes!" I thread my fingers through my brown hair that was now highlighted with maroon. Tucker stood behind me with my camera. "I like it." "Yeah?" He nodded. "It looks really good, Jo." I covered my face as I blushed heavily. "Aly, I can't thank you enough for this!" "Girl, you're welcome! I always love cutting and styling your hair so I was super excited when you texted me this idea." She ran her fingers through my hair. "I love how this turned out." "Me too." Tucker pointed the camera to the floor. "Hey, Aly, can I have a minute with Jo?" My friend nodded. "Of course. Meet me up front." "Okay." I smiled softly. Tucker sat in the chair beside mine and smiled over at me. "You look beautiful." "Thanks." I grinned. "What's up?" "I have to get going." He said quietly. I giggled softly. "Oh. I thought it was something serious." "Well, it's not, but I do need to borrow your car." He grinned wide. Sighing, I handed him my car keys. "You better pay me back for the Uber I'm about to order." Tucker set my camera in my lap as he leaned over and kissed my cheek. "Of course, I will. Bye, babes." "Bye." I sighed. After he left, I went up to the counter and paid Aly. "Where did Tucker go?" She asked. I shrugged. "Dunno. He said he needed to borrow my car though. I didn't really ask." "Do you need a ride?" She asked. "No." I shook my head. "I think I might walk down the street to the lake and get some footage. Maybe I'll make a new Instagram video." Aly handed me my receipt. "Well, if you change your mind, I get off in an hour." "Thanks, girl. And thanks for the new hair color." I grabbed my bag. "See you later." "See you." I started my walk down the sidewalk I was familiar with and reminisced about the adventures Tucker and I went on in the woods near this particular lake. I took a few photos and started walking around the lake. I found a bench and set up my camera to catch a time lapse of the sunset. I sat on the ground beside the bench and took out my phone. Opening Instagram, I saw I had a few unopened direct messages. Most of them were giving me ideas for LA but one of them caught my attention. It was a low quality video of a familiar restaurant in town so I clicked on it and turned up the volume. "Hey, Josephine. I know you don't know me, but I live in Minneapolis. I'm out with my sister and I recognized Tucker from your 'friendship tag'. He went inside Frankie's with a girl and my sister went inside a few minutes ago and saw that they were getting ready to leave. So, I wanted to film this for you." The girl stopped talking and I watched the door closely. Another minute went by before Tucker walked outside. A second later, a familiar girl walked out behind him; her hand was in his. I covered my mouth as Tucker leaned his head down and kissed her. "Oh my gosh." "Oh my God. Jo." The girl said. I stood up and pocketed my phone, running my hands over my face and through my hair. Anger began to set in at the thought of Tucker blatantly omitting the fact that he had a date tonight. I waited another minute before pressing stop on my camera and starting my walk back to the hair salon. I went inside and walked right up to Aly. "I need your car. Where are your keys?" I muttered. "Okay." She nodded. "They're up front, under the counter. There's a pink fuzzy ball on my key ring." "Thank you. I'll be back in a half hour." "Alright." Aly's car got me to the Greenwich neighborhood. I drove around, looking for my white Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2. I found it parked at a dead end with Tucker and Marietta stood beside it. I sped toward them and slammed on the brakes, put the car in park and got out. Tucker's jaw dropped when he saw me. "Jo, I can explain." I shook my head. "I don't want to hear it, Tucker. Say goodbye, get your ass back in my car and follow me back to the hair salon. Aly needs her car soon." Marietta scoffed. "Don't be such a jealous bitch, Josephine." "Shut up, Marietta." I snapped. "Go home." "You can't talk to me like that!" I looked at her. "I just did! Leave!" Huffing, Marietta got in her car and drove off. "What the hell has crawled up your ass, Jo?!" Tucker yelled. I groaned. "Me?! Seriously?! You took my car, leaving me without a ride, to go on a date with Marietta Gonzalez! I cannot believe you, Tucker! I thought we told each other everything!" "We do!" He yelled. "I was going to tell you tonight! I didn't think much of her dinner offer until she started playing footsie with me under the table. I decided to give it a shot!" "With my car?!" "I didn't think it would bother you like this!" I sighed. "It wouldn't have bothered me if you'd told me where you were going." Tucker walked up to me, cupping my face. "Josephine, you are my best friend. I'm sorry I left you at the hair salon. I'm sorry I didn't tell you where I was going." "Do you know how I figured it out?" I asked, softly. He shook his head. "No. I don't actually." "A fan saw you walk into Frankie's." I put my hands over his and pulled them away from my face. "She took video of the two of you leaving and sent it to me." Tucker sighed. "Damn it." "I'm sorry, Tucker, but you're just as much in the public eye as I am now." I whispered. "I love having you in on this with me, but I can't have someone on my team that isn't going to be one hundred percent honest and open with me." I squeezed his hands. "Can you do that?" He nodded. "Yes, babes. I can. I'm so sorry." I bit my lip. "Let's just go. We can talk later."

Hook, Line, and Sinker

Title: Hook, Line, and Sinker by @tisfan Link: AO3 Square Filled: R3 - dares/bets Ship: Bucky/Tony, Tony & Rhodey Rating: teen Major Tags: hangover, broship, rhodey is a good bro, dares/bets, blind date, sort of, pre-slash Summary: Tony woke up with a hangover and someone’s phone number. Rhodey doesn’t quite believe it. With Tony’s prize Shelby on the line...  Word Count: 1,885 Created for @tonystarkbingo

A/n: This is the sequel to this February’s Candy Hearts ficlet, Pick-up lines, but the story is self-contained. A requested and tipped fic for @unreliableunseelie

Tony woke up with a head full of cotton batting, a mouth full of dragon shit, and a memory of the previous evening that was entirely lacking.

He managed to roll over, away from the very annoying beam of light -- light, hah, felt more like a brain-destroying laser -- that was flooding his room, at the expense of everything left over in his stomach rebelling. “Oh, god,” he said, and then sprinted for the bathroom.

Okay, sprint was pushing it. Ambled with purpose and direction.

Whatever he’d eaten had probably tasted better on the way down, but since Tony couldn’t remember anything after he and Rhodey hit the third bar, he couldn’t guarantee it. He was just trying to find a bar that had the right ambiance.

He wasn’t sure he’d managed it.

He bid farewell to his late night snack, flushed, rinsed his mouth, spit. Used the bathroom for its other purpose, flushed again.

Considered taking a shower.

Considered not taking a shower.

Honestly, his sadiversary was getting to be old news, and he was too old to be acting like that anymore anyway.

He wasn’t even sure he really missed Steve anymore.

Did he?

He didn’t. Tony decided that, firmly. He did not miss Steve, that wasn’t going to happen anymore.

He tried to remember if he’d decided that last year, too.

Maybe he could go for a big party, his five year sadiversary next year, and then, it could all be over, over, over.

“Or you could just stop,” Tony told his reflection.

Shower.

He could do it.

Not mourning his failed relationships any longer.

He could do that, too.

Tony emptied his pockets; he’d apparently just rolled into bed, since the only thing he was missing from his outfit were his shoes and tie. And god only knew, he might have thrown the tie out last night. He’d been known to do that sort of thing before.

“New man,” he told his reflection. “New life.”

Wallet. Keys. Phone.

Cocktail napkin.

Cocktail napkin?

There were digits on a cocktail napkin. In his pocket.

“Jarvis, call Rhodey,” he told his phone. His phone did its thing while Tony finished getting undressed. “Speaker.”

“There’s coffee already prepped for you downstairs, no you didn’t puke last night before I left,” Rhodey said as soon as he picked up. “Your car is fine, we left it at the garage, and as far as I know, there are no warrants out for your arrest.”

“Thank you for that cheerful morning report,” Tony said. He turned the shower on and shivered as the water didn’t insta-heat and the first blast was cold over his forearm and hand.

“Seems like what you’d want to know,” Rhodey said. “How’s the hangover?”

“I think it’s been worse,” Tony said, stepping into the spray. It was still not as warm as he wanted it to be, so he turned it up some while he waited, cringing all the way in the back of the shower, away from the cold.

Which was stupid, because thirty seconds later it was way too hot and he had to reach through it to turn it down. He should get on the set-my-preferences shower system that would just… chime when it was ready. Like a microwave.

Except, you know, nothing like an actual microwave, because those were dangerous, even on short term exposure.

“You were doing okay, last night,” Rhodey said. “With the drinking. But then you decided to play bertie botts every flavor ice cream last night with some ridiculous little ice cream shop that’s open twenty-four seven and what the hell man, I could not keep you from eating chocolate and jalapeno ice cream at three in the morning.”

“Well, that explains my rude awakening,” Tony said. He considered that for a moment. “Did I say it was good? I mean, it sounds kinda awful, but also intriguing.”

“I didn’t eat it,” Rhodey said. “And I don’t lick another man’s ice cream cone, that’s just wrong. Especially when it’s yours.”

“So what kind did you have?”

“Maple Bacon with Jack Daniels,” Rhodey said without a hint of shame.

“Where’s this ice cream shop again? I think I’d like to go there when I’m sober.”

“We can make that happen, Tones.”

“Great,” Tony said. He filled his luffa with shower gel and was instantly drowning in some vaguely outdoorsy scented soap. “So, tell me, did I score last night?”

“You certainly did not,” Rhodey said.

“Really? Cause I got digits here that say otherwise.”

“That is a fake number, that guy totally did not give you his real number, you were being a total drunken asshole, flirting with some bar-bum. Like the worst lines ever. I wouldn’t date you with those lines.”

“Rhodey, you’ve known me since I was fifteen. I’m pretty sure if you were going to date me, you’d have said something about it by now. Fake number, huh?”

“You don’t remember?”

“I don’t even remember the ice cream, much less flirting,” Tony said.

“Oh, well… too bad. You two totally played tonsil hockey for a while,” Rhodey said.

“I thought you said it was a fake number,” Tony said. He rubbed shampoo into his hair. “So, if we were necking, that seems to counter the theory that it’s fake.”

“It was a pity kiss,” Rhodey said.

“Nobody gives pity kisses,” Tony scoffed. “And even if they did, no one would pity kiss me. I mean, I’m… good looking. Mostly.” He rinsed his hair, let the shower water run down his head for a while. Maybe he could drown in the shower, that might cure the hangover. Of course, it would mean drowning, and that just sounded uncomfortable. Not to mention, the whole being naked and dead thing. Would he even care about his image if he was dead, or would he be too dead to care?

Tony shook his head, which was a mistake.

“Don’t even try that false modesty bullshit, Tony,” Rhodey said. “You know you’re the thing. Mr. Thing, Mr. Third most Eligible.”

“Yeah, I never liked that shit, brings the gold diggers out in full force. One of these days, I’d like someone to like me for… you know. Me.”

“Yeah, Tones, what’s not to like about you?”

“I hear that sarcasm,” Tony said. “And you’re hurting me here, sourpatch. I am hurt. Like, there might be actual tears and everything.”

“Look,” Rhodey said, “you and that guy, you were on the same page last night, but I’m telling you, you were reading totally different books.”

“I’m gonna call him,” Tony said.

Rhodey scoffed. “No, you’re not.”

“I am.” He wasn’t.

“I bet you it’s a false number.”

“Bet you it isn’t.”

“Oh, it’s on, Tones,” Rhodey said. “A hundred dollars says it’s a fake.”

“Five hundred,” Tony said, “verses --” he paused, trying to think of something Rhodey actually wanted that Tony might feel bad about giving him. There wasn’t much; usually Rhodey wouldn’t let Tony give him gifts, not like expensive, real ones, at any rate. And Pepper kept boycotting his idea of buying Rhode Island and renaming it. She said it wasn’t a good tax write off. Spoilsport.

“The Shelby.”

“Wo-- my car?”

“Tony, you have like seventy cars. But I like that one.”

“Deal. I’ll take my winnings in cash, no trade value,” Tony said. “Jarvis, end call.”

Tony got out of the shower and toweled off. Less vigorously than normal because see previously mentioned: hung over. Got his bathrobe and made his way to the kitchen. Punched the button on his coffee machine.

Considered the cocktail napkin and his phone.

Drank his coffee.

Dialed the number.

“Mmmphs?” a voice said, a male voice, even, so Tony figured he might be getting somewhere. “If this isn’t an insanely good looking guy, I’m hanging up.”

“Well, you’re in luck today,” Tony said.

“Do I know you?” the voice wondered. “Because really, I don’t think I made friends with people who were cheerful at… ug… it’s not even nine in the morning, what kind of masochist are you, it’s Saturday.”

Already, a man after my own heart. “Um, this is probably going to sound weird, but uh… did you give your number to anyone last night?”

There was a very long pause and Tony might have thought that the person hung up, except he could hear breathing.

“Yessss,” the man said, tentatively. “If you’re a friend of Sammie’s though, and this is a joke, you let that half-assed--”

“Not a joke--” Tony protested. “I found a cocktail napkin in my pocket, and I was wondering…” Wondering what, actually. If he was the guy from last night, if they’d had a good time, if it was a nice kiss, what’s your name, what do you look like… “would you like to have an ice cream with me. Today?”

“Wha---?” The guy asked. “Are you seriously asking me on an ice cream date after a ten minute conversation in a bar?”

“Why not?” Might as well roll with it, now that he’d gotten started. “Just, no strings or anything, no nothing. Just ice cream and a little get to know you. What, coffee dates are lame, everyone does coffee dates. I drink so much coffee that it’s like having a date at the corner water cooler.”

“Yeah, okay,” the guy said. “Ice cream date. Sure, why not?”

“Okay, so… four o’clock? Um… I’ll, um, text you the address? And… I might have had beer goggles on last night, so, text me back a picture? Just to make sure, because I’m pretty sure the conversation was with an angel, or a model or something.” Tony didn’t actually remember the guy at all, but a little flattery. And he’d win his bet… right? He could part with the car if the picture was scary. Hell, even if the picture wasn’t scary, he owed the guy for letting him know what Rhodey wanted for his next present.

“Sure,” the guy said. “I’ll… uh, see you at four, then.”

“Yep!”

Fortunately, typing in maple bacon jack daniels ice cream in his search engine got him the address for the ice cream shop. He texted his date -- who… had a name. And it was probably a boy’s name, too, except Tony didn’t know it. Fuck.

Then he texted Rhodey: Got a date. Four o’clock. Ice cream shop. Cash only!

A few seconds later, he texted again. Or, if he happened to tell me his name last night and you remember it, I’ll forgive you for betting against me.

New Text From Rhodey: Bucky Barnes.

Tony stared at the screen for a long moment. Then. You’re forgiven for thinking it was a fake number because I’m not sure that’s a real name.

New text from unknown number: Selfie from the gym a few weeks ago.

Attached was a picture of a guy wearing a baseball hat and workout clothes, scowling fiercely and pulling up his shirt to reveal ridiculously sculpted abs.

Tony stared.

“You’d think I’d remember him,” he said wistfully.

Texted back See you at Four.

New text from unknown number: looking forward to it. My first ice cream date since high school.

Tony texted Rhodey again, attaching the picture.

Cash. Only. I lied. You are totally not forgiven. 

[notaspacelizard]

So I was targeted by a blackmailer yesterday. Didn’t work, but this seems like a fine void to tell this story to.

It started on Feeld, a dating app for kink and polyamory. Picture of a cute girl, empty profile, generic tags, but whatever. She’s cute, so I swipe right. Lo and behold, she swipes back and we match. We chatted for a bit, she’s in New York and I’m going to be there (now) today and tomorrow, ask if she’s up for some casual fun. She says yes, asks for my number.

🚩 1: her profiled was terminated as soon as we switched to text. Weird but 🤷‍♂️

So we’re chatting over text. She asks for my insta and a recent selfie. I assumed this is a safety thing, just making sure I am who I say I am and that I look like my profile pics. I ask her to do the same and she does, although the insta profile is private. It’s fine, again, that is a totally normal safety thing. We talk about safety and consent, meeting in public, kinks, interests, boundaries, etc.

This is all very run of the mill pre-hookup talk, but 🚩2: she’s just, like, not super aware of things that have already happened in this conversation, dodging questions about where and when to meet, etc. Like, I said multiple times that I’m coming up to NY for a couple days, and then an hour later she’s asking if I live alone.

At this point I started to figure she was just collecting pics and dirty talk without actually intending to meet, which is a shitty thing to do, but if I get some pics and dirty talk out of it too then it’s just an annoying waste of time afaic. The point is, signs were there. I ignored them because I was horny. Anyway.

We exchange a little bit of dirty talk and she asks for a 🍆 pic, which I send.

Then all of a sudden the scooby doo mask comes off and he (I assume, now) is like “give me $700 or I’ll send these screenshots to your friends and family. I’m going to ruin your life!”

To which I essentially respond “lol. Lmao.”

Like, I assume this scam works pretty well on people who are cheating or said some horrendous things in the dirty talk or have body image issues or what have you. I am none of those things. So what are you going to do? Tell everyone how respectful and polite I was? Oh nooooooo. The dirty talk about all about the wonderful ways in which I want to make you 💦 because I’m a service dom. Tell the world! That pic I sent is great, post it on the internet! Cant wait for all the thirsty reacts, you’re doing my work for me, dude!

He did send the screenshots to one person that I know of, as a “do you think I’m bluffing” move. And I feel terrible that she got dragged into this and apologized to her for that. A violation of my consent is one thing, a violation of my friend’s consent is another. The only thing that would have tempted me to pay would have been hammering on that “look what I’m doing to your friends” button. But he didn’t. Because he is stupid.

So anyway. After that, I texted all my friends and posted on all my social media that someone was trying to blackmail me with releasing these NSFW pics and to please just block if they get a random message. The Letterman maneuver. That seemed to shut him up. Some more ranting about how he was going to ruin my life and the internet never forgets and then I just ignored him.

So anyway. That was a very stupid night but hopefully someone out there can learn from my mistakes.
