Ok you said yell at you on Tumblr so : ahhh this story is so good! I just love the characterization you have, and the interwoven media/social media is very very well done - it really is a fascinating way to get a different pov without giving us a different pov at all! though on that note actually I have a question: who's pov are we getting in those asides in the news updates? Is that always Jack's? I think there were a couple that I didn't think was Jack so much as like... Some sort of reader standin or third party from the framing for some reason.

Also Nico what is going on in his head I'd be so curious for like your take on where the key points in his journey were (you know, once we get through the journey) assuming you don't reveal them directly later on! I'm kind of feeling like he's mostly just attracted to/fascinated by Jack right now and has been kind of holding Jack at arms length because he can't see past the self-centeredness (like that Bahrain scene where he assumes even Jack's envy is self-centeredness instead). Jack is just such a mess right now that's uhh probably for the best for Nico honestly since Nico seems like he's at least a mostly functional mess but I'm afraid we all know that's not gonna last in the face of his attraction and eagerly await his reaction once he discovers he is in too deep and then hooray what a mess we will get!

Anyway I've got so much speculation on this fic in a random note where I'm trying to figure out what's actually going on but I will hold myself back and wait for you to write the answers haha thank you so much again and I am extremely excited for more!

YAS PLEASE YELL AT ME ALL THE TIME! i love hearing words about my fics i will say it one million billion times because it is true. thank you so much!! the characterization was something i was nervous about before i started posting the fic so getting comments about it makes me feel a lot better lol. thank you thank you

the social media stuff is the absolute biggest pain in the world to code but it is so fun to write -- i'm glad i decided to include that stuff even though i am filled with self-hatred every time i have to code a page of tweets lmao. and to answer your question, for the most part it's stuff jack is reading at some point in the narrative (not necessarily at the exact point it comes in the story if that makes sense?) because he very much is a guy who reads stuff about himself. including some of the more indycar-related tweets, he does pay a little attention to that side of things both because he likes the series and because trevor is in it - which means most of the peeks into the indycar sphere via the twitter sections are coming from zegras fans, since that's the perspective jack gives the biggest fuck about lol. but there definitely is stuff i just include for fun, like i think i had a whole article section that was Just about jamie drysdale. that subplot is definitely subplotting. actually that gives me an idea. or multiple. thanks anon you are fueling some new nonsense in me

anyways. short answer is a lot of it theoretically comes in the sense that jack is reading those tweets/articles, while some of it is more just me fucking around. but it's majority stuff about the title fight and jack and nico and their teams and not as much about the midfield or the backmarkers (unless they are jamie drysdale oops)

currently i am just vagueing about nico's inner thoughts LMAO but i do in general know what's going on up there in terms of him, and i plan to reveal some of it directly later in the fic, but i would definitely be willing to go more into it on here as the fic continues! i've said in a couple of other ask answers i think that i don't want to really spoil anything -- which means i end up vagueing a lot lol sorry i know that's evil of me -- but all Will be revealed eventually. at the moment they are both being massive idiots about everything

they are definitely both their own messes. they are both kind of awful at dealing with their feelings, the awfulness just manifests in different ways. jack is someone who will deny it and pretend it isn't happening right up to the moment it blows up in his face, whereas Okay i'll let you have this one, nico will acknowledge that a feeling is there, but then he'll ignore it anyways. and i lovelovelove hearing about the speculation and assumptions and all that fun stuff, so if you ever want to share any of the things you are speculating about i would love to hear it :) obv you can keep it to yourself if you'd prefer lol or you can only tell me when you speculated correctly, but idk the fact that people are invested enough in something i wrote to speculate about it makes me very happy. you have made my little writer heart very full today. thank you anon!

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them

People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human

“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”

“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”

“Yeah!!”

“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”

“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“

“How illogical”

“That’s what I’m saying!!!”

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest

Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here

Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭

It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony

just binged all of boyish in one night, pretty sure this fic was sent from hell to kill me specifically because i was truly losing my mind. also, i am obsessed with the amount of waterparks on their playlist and i will be thinking about that for the rest of time. seriously fantastic work!!!!! <3

i am actually curious to know how many hours it takes to binge all of boyish bc the predictions on my chrome extension says seven. but idk what reading speed that's based on whoops

but i'm glad you liked it!! i was definitely sent from hell to write fics that might kill people... jk. Maybe. but i love waterparks sm i know i added More waterparks to the playlist kinda recently (like mid-three month hiatus lol) but they've always been on there. one of my fav bands ever

and thank you!! <3

("Always. Continuously. With increasing apprehension, and decreasing hope. I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday. I will love you as a corpse loves the beak of the vulture. I will love you no matter what happens to you, and no matter how I discover what happens to you, and no matter what happens to me as I discover this." -- paraphrased from The Beatrice Letters, Lemony Snicket)
