Fabian and Nina's marks were in the same spot if anybody noticed

I think I'm going to have to kill the incorrect Quote Generator I'm using

*Patricia is comforting Fabian* Patricia: Stop crying because it’s over. Start smiling because Nina is someone else’s problem now.

Like how dare?!

Nina Martin, daughter of Hades, god of the dead, and ruler of the underworld.

Fabian Rutter, son of Athena, goddess of wisdom, warfare, and battle strategy.

Amber Millington, daughter of Aphrodite, goddess of love, beauty, sexuality, and passion.

fabina and whatever Nina x Joy is just out of curiosity.... Like I am fabina forever beyond the grave and I believe they would have been endgame more than anything but Nina and Joy lurk in the back of my mind sometimes👀

ok right off the bat, disclaimer that you’re probably not going to be happy w these lmfao

fabina:

i adore them to pieces in season 1. season 2 was a hot mess and honestly i don’t care for 90% of it. therefore, this bingo board is all over the place

nina and joy:

absolutely howling at the fact that i managed to get a bingo with these two of all two lolol anyways all my positive feelings toward them romantically are solely from this incredible fic sdfghjk i really don’t see them getting together in our canon universe at all. that being said, if nina was around for s3 i think they would have become friends, or at least trusted advisors for each other.

send me a pairing

Thank you @bellamyblakru​ 🥺🥺🥰🥰 You lovely human being! We actually have a lot of similar favorites lol so I’m gonna use different ones😂

2.) The 100 (Aside from season 7 this show is still good haha. Just ignore the last season😉)

3.) Haven

4.) Wolf Blood

5.) House of Anubis (Aka my childhood obsession lmfao)

Tagging: @movrings​ @daenerystj​ @fandomsandxfiles​ @edgelessness​ @xxawalkinwonderlandxx​ @cuppatealove​ @underbellamy​ Only if y’all want to😊

today I found the house of anubis fic I started in 2016 and honestly it’s...not bad

fabina h/cs?

Oh yes I was hoping someone would ask me this. Warning this got very long I have a lot of thoughts and feelings

They are so sweet it makes everyone wanna barf sometimes

In S1 some of them (Mick, Mara, Alfie, Patricia) place bets on when they're gonna get together. Mick wins

During S2 Amber tries to get them together in a multitude of different ways. She tries mistletoe, the old "trapping them in a small dark room together" trick, conspiring with Patricia and Alfie to ensure they just so ~happen~ to find themselves alone together, etc.

Throughout S3, they literally never stopped thinking about each other

After graduation, it's a really turbulent and transitionary period in Fabian's life, and he has to assess what he really wants. And he realizes he never stopped loving Nina, and he wants to be with her again

Amber actively encourages him to go after her, saying he'll regret it for the rest of his life if he doesn't

Nina realizes the past year without him has been miserable. It's been awful not having her best friend by her side to talk to and confide in and do things with, and she's missed him so much. So when he reaches out, all of her feelings come rushing back with an intensity, and she decides she doesn't want to lose him again, and they get back together. For good this time.

They go to college in America together, and Fabian ultimately moves to her hometown of Cleveland to be with her

After college they work at a museum together looking at historical stuff all day long. They get to nerd out and they work together well; it's a dream job

Nina tries her best to introduce Fabian to American culture. Some of it is a bigger culture shock than others. Nina is always incredibly amused when he doesn't get words right or he gets flustered and confused at certain customs

He's not sure how he feels about American fast food

American pie, however, is his new favorite thing. Especially Nina's gran's pies

The Fourth of July scares him. But barbecues are nice

Nina is a fan of Cleveland's baseball team. She takes him to a game, and by god is he confused. He has trouble following. The first game is a lost cause. But once Nina points out how dependent the game is on math, then he starts to get the hang of it. A little bit

American driving, however, is horrifying to Fabian. Nina's a pretty good driver, and Fabian's fairly good (if not a bit stiff and nervous) at driving in the UK, but in America it's a whole different animal. Not only are they on the other side of the road, but the drivers here are fast and aggressive. It's very scary. The ONLY reason he eventually learns to do it the American way is because he wants to be able to take Nina out and be a competent enough man to drive a car around

Speaking of cars: one summer they definitely go on a cross-country road trip, just the two of them. It's meant to bring them closer and be romantic, and it is. They love looking at all the sights together, and Fabian is amazed by the sheer diversity of landscape and how gorgeous parts of the country can be. He TRIES to split the driving 50/50, but America is just so goddam BIG, like intimidatingly huge, and he's not used to driving for that long. The driving ends up being more like 70/30 in Nina's favor, but she doesn't mind. She gives Fabian the responsibility of making a road trip playlist, and he knocks it out of the park

At home, they enjoy cozy nights by the fireside, reading and snuggling under blankets

Sweaters! They are sweater people and I enjoy the image of them snuggling together in sweaters

Handwritten letters! They write each other handwritten letters all the time, especially in the summer between season 1-2 and the period of time between graduation and Fabian making the move to America. They both keep every single letter they receive and each keep them stored in a sentimental little box

They like to frequent old/used bookstores and antique shops. Their place is filled to the brim with odd knickknacks and collectibles that they find, and they have an entire wall with shelves piled high with books

They don't need a lot of fancy stuff, and they don't care about being high-class; they don't care much about appearances, and they don't need a lot. All they care about really is being together.

They learn to get better at communication and not let anyone else's opinion about their relationship impact their relationship. They're the only ones that know what's best for them, and they take things at their own pace

Nina can get overly emotional and stressed sometimes, and Fabian's her rock. That's how it's always been, and that's how it always will be

They love to watch the discovery channel and the national geographic channel, along with netflix documentaries

They fuckin LOVE escape rooms, they use every excuse they can to go to escape rooms

Nina takes Fabian to the rock and roll hall of fame, and he's like a kid in a candy store

They are frequent patrons of their local coffee shop, to the point where all the baristas know who they are

They are very cheesy and sentimental all the time. Most everything they do is very thoughtful and has some kind of meaning

They like to write cute notes to each other and leave them around the house

It takes Fabian forever to actually propose to Nina, to the point where he gets calls from Amber just about every day asking when she's getting an engagement announcement. He just wanted to be careful and deliberate about it and make sure everything was perfect

He makes sure the proposal is simple and romantic. He sets up a candlelit dinner, the lights are low, he talks to her softly and sweetly and tells her he loves her and pops the question

Nina, surprisingly, does not cry. Fabian, however, definitely does when she says yes

He proposes with a family ring; his grandmother's ring. It's very sentimental and has a lot of history behind it, and we all know Nina loves that stuff, and the history and story makes her very emotional

He does what he should have done in S2 instead of writing a poem: he writes her a song and plays it for her on the guitar. It's her favorite thing he's ever done for her.

After the engagement they tell Amber before they tell anyone else, because she'd kill them if they didn't

They surprise her with a video call, and they don't tell her at first, but then Nina surprises her and shows off the ring, and Amber screams so loud they're convinced she's going to break glass.

Amber is even more excited than they are, she talks with them absolutely non-stop about their wedding. She even tries to take control of it at some point

Their wedding is a fairly small wedding; it takes place at an outdoor venue in the spring, at a beautiful location just outside her hometown in America. Mick is the best man and Amber is the maid of honor. Amber gives an incredibly emotional MOH speech and sobs buckets. Gran walks Nina down the aisle

Her wedding dress looks a little something like this; definitely something with long lacy sleeves

They have 3 kids, all girls

The oldest is Evelyn, named after Nina's gran. She's got dark hair, Nina's curls, Nina’s light blue eyes, and she looks like Fabian. She got Nina's courageous leadership side, she's very adventurous

The middle child is Sarah. She looks like someone legit photocopied Nina. Same hair color, same curls, same eyes, same general facial features. She got the intellectual and bookish side of both of them

The youngest is Eloise, kind of a little bit after Sarah's mother but mostly they just liked the name. Often they call her "Lou" and she definitely goes by that when she's older. She somehow got to be strawberry blonde, has less curls than her sisters, she has Fabian's blue-green eyes, and is a mix of them both when it comes to facial features. She got the part of them that liked to sneak around and break the rules; as she gets older she becomes very rebellious, and Nina jokes "are we sure this child came from me and not Patricia?"

All 3 girls are little troublemakers and they're partners in crime

At some points when the girls are a bit much Fabian gets stressed and shouts "we're outnumbered!!!!!"

Amber is their aunt and showers the girls with expensive presents all the time, especially clothes, which all of the girls LOVE. Nina and Fabian accuse her of spoiling them and she says "If I can't spoil them then what's the point of being the rich beloved aunt?"

The girls do indeed love Amber, all three of them adore her

When the girls get older they find the boxes of letters their parents wrote to each other, they think it's very sweet

Even as they get older, the two of them always set aside time to be romantic with each other

And they remain each other's best friend and confidante forever and ever

yo please feel free to keep sending me these! or asking me my opinions on stuff! this is a lot of fun!

HOA characters as songs off of “SOUR”

(I don’t think this has been done yet and i’m sorry if it has)

1. Brutal

Pretty much the entire house but specifically sibuna. God, it was brutal out there for them- facing off against ancient egyptian curses and gods and all that jazz. 😔✋🏻

“All I did was try my best

This the kind of thanks I get?

Unrelentlessly upset (ah, ah, ah)

They say these are the golden years

But I wish I could disappear

Ego crush is so severe

God, it's brutal out here”

2. Traitor

It took me FOREVER to decide who to give this song to but I thinkkk it goes to Fabian’s feelings towards Nina after she abruptly fell off the face of the earth with nothing but a letter to explain everything. And maybe that’s just because fabina is my favorite hoa couple and this is my favorite song off of the album….BUT i really do think the angst level of this song matches Fabian’s angst towards Nina in season three. I mean home girl really broke up with him over a letter and didn’t even tell him before hand that she wasn’t coming back.👀👀👀 I came this 🤏🏻 close to giving this song to Joy because it’s pretty obvious why. But I saved this one for last and there are already so many other Joy songs on this list so I needed to share the rounds ya know.

“God, I wish that you had thought this through

Before I went and fell in love with you”

“You betrayed me

'Cause I know that you'll never feel sorry

For the way I hurt, yeah”

“Guess you didn't cheat

But you're still a traitor to me”

3. Drivers’ License

Bucks up for the amount of Joy angst that is about to be on this list because whew it’s alottt. This would’ve been joy’s anthem after she had came back in season two and found Fabian in a new relationship with a girl she had never even met before.

“And you're probably with that blonde girl

Who always made me doubt

She's so much older than me

She's everything I'm insecure about

Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs

'Cause how could I ever love someone else?”

4. 1 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back

Again, this one took me a hot minute. But, I’m gonna go ahead and give it to Mara and Jerome just for all they went through in season two and the beginning of season three.

“Instead it's one step forward and three steps back

And I'd leave you, but the roller coaster is all I've ever had

Yeah, it's one step forward and three steps back

Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy

I don't understand”

5. Deja Vu

Don’t act like you don’t know who this is gonna go to. It’s pretty obvious @ joy being jealous of nina and fabian being so close in season two 🗣

“So when you gonna tell her

That we did that too?

She thinks it's special

But it's all reused

That was the show we talked about

Played you the song she's singing now when she's with you”

6. Good 4 You

This song. This musical video. The angst. Everything about it screams Patricia Williamson when her and eddie were broken up at the beginning of season 3 and she was jealous of KT. Tell me that she wouldn’t had this on blast in her dorm with her headphones on.

“Well, good for you, you look happy and healthy, not me

If you ever cared to ask

Good for you, you're doin' great out there without me, baby

God, I wish that I could do that”

7. Enough For You

Alfie pinned over Amber for years only for her to give him a huge list of demands that he must meet before they could be a couple. Talk about hard to get. So this one has gotta go to my amfie babes. RIP 🥲

“But God, you couldn't have cared less

About someone who loved you more

I'd say you broke my heart

But you broke much more than that

Now I don't want your sympathy

I just want myself back”

8. Happier

This one is 100% going to my Fabina soft beans. Look at me in the eyes and tell me this isn’t Nina’s anthem after leaving Anubis House especially once she found out fabian and mara.

“I hope you're happy, just not like how you were with me

I'm selfish, I know, can't let you go

So find someone great, don't find no one better

I hope you're happy, but don't be happier”

9. Jealousy, Jealousy

@ JOY MERCER THIS ONE IS MADE FOR YOU GIRLIE. Literally her national anthem when she came back in season two and noticed how everything changed.

“All your friends are so cool, you go out every night

In your daddy's nice car, yeah, you're livin' the life

Got a pretty face, pretty boyfriend, too

I wanna be you so bad, and I don't even know you”

10. Favorite Crime

This one is a tie either between Fabian and Nina (since those two did actually low key commit some very questionable actions) or Joy and Jerome and season three with the whole cheating and revenge plot. Fabian and Nina are a couple of adrenaline junkies who would honestly pay no attention to committing a crime as long as no one got hurt and it was called for. 👀

“It's bittersweet to think about the damage that we do

'Cause I was going down, but I was doing it with you

Yeah, everything we broke, and all the trouble that we made

But I say that I hate you with a smile on my face”

11. Hope ur okay

This is Nina reminiscing on all the people she left behind at Anubis. No debate. Don’t listen to this thinking of Nina thinking of the people she left behind- especially not sibuna. It. will. HURT.

“Well, I hope you know how proud I am you were created

With the courage to unlearn all of their hatred

God, I hope that you're happier today

'Cause I love you, and I hope that you're okay”

Favorite TV Shows & Movies I watched in 2020

In chronological order, divided by month.

J A N U A R Y

Anne with an E Season 3

What a beautiful season! I loved Anne’s character growth and her relationship with Matthew and Marilla. This season had so many interesting storylines and compelling characters. I always love the life lessons and women empowerment this show presents. The romantic aspects of the season and the kiss in that last episode were perfect.

Parasite (2019)

This is a masterpiece. I watched it with my family on cinemas and we all loved it. The acting was great, there was a perfect combination of comedy and drama and the ending was amazing; it was depressing yet very realistic that it hurt my soul.

F E B R U A R Y

Ragnarok Season 1

Never thought I’d like a show about Thor, but this take on norse mythology was amazing to watch. I loved the protagonist and the setting of the show. This is a Norwegian fantasy show and all the actors are very talented. The characters (although weird) were very unique and the ending left me so excited for season 2.

Altered Carbon Season 1

This is not only a show, is an experience. The cast, the setting, the plot and the relationships are fantastic. It has many action scenes I enjoyed, it has mystery and a great protagonist. The world building is so rich and interesting. I love Joel Kinnaman and Martha Higareda, they did an amazing acting job and their chemistry was wonderful. Everything about s1 was so great but, don’t watch s2, it is terrible. You can just watch season 1 as a mini series and be happy.

Jojo Rabbit (2019)

This movie broke my heart but also made me laugh so hard. I love the characters and the actors. The soundtrack was brilliant and the development of the story was so well done. It has many remarkable moments and quotes I loved. I never thought I’d like a movie about the second world war this much but I did. This movie deserves so much more recognition because it is fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

M A R C H

Elite Season 3

Not the best season of the show but it was great. It was one of my most anticipated season premieres and I binge-watched it like crazy. I love the characters and the relationships, I’m so invested in all the stories and the vibe of this show. The new characters were the weakest part of the season but overall there were many amazing moments I loved. Even Kevin McHale made a cameo!! Can’t wait for season 4.

The Chronicles of Narnia trilogy (2005 - 2010)

I watched these movies after reading the book series and I feel in love with the characters. I love the Pevensies so much, Edmund is my favorite but I love them all. The lion the witch and the wardrobe is my favorite movie out of the 3 but they all are great movies in my opinion. Caspian is also a fantastic character. The magic and the meaning of the stories are amazing and timeless.

The hunger games saga (2012 - 2015)

I rewatched this saga with my sister and we loved it. We cried and suffered throughout Mockingjay part 1 & 2 of course. I love this world so much, it is vast, interesting and full of epic moments. Katniss is a queen and Peeta is my beautiful soft boy. I love Finnick, Haymitch, Effie and many other characters. The social commentary of these movies and the rebellion are very impactful aspects the saga achieved.

A P R I L

El hoyo (2019)

This movie is disturbing in many ways but it is so great. This is a dystopia that talks about the worst aspects of society. It’s hard to see people’s behaviors and attitudes towards each other but you know they are realistic. The movie shows many things you can reflect on. The acting was great, the characters were interesting and the tone was grimm and mysterious.

Outer Banks Season 1

Teenage drama, summer setting, a hidden treasure and many adventures. The characters are interesting, the cast is gorgeous and the found family relationship of the group is beautiful. This show feels so fresh and exciting, the plot is very fun to follow but it also deals with hard topics like toxic relationships and abusive families.

M A Y

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1 (2010) & part 2 (2011)

I rewatched these movies after reading the book and I fell more in love with the world, with Harry and with the conclusion of the story. I love part 1 a little bit more but both movies have such an epic feeling to me. I love the anticipation for the Battle of Hogwarts and the exciting fighting scenes. The ending always makes me cry, I love it.

The imitation game (2014)

This movie is so important, everyone should watch it. It is based on true events and Benedict Cumberbatch is amazing in it, his performance was stunning. I loved the protagonist, the story and the side characters. Upon this rewatch I noticed more how everything was remarkable, there were a lot of well written dramatic scenes and the moments near the end broke my heart.

J U N E

Gotham Season 5

I love Gotham so much!!! This season was amazing but so short, I needed more. I love Bruce and seeing how he became Batman was an epic experience. I love the heroes, the villains, the dynamics between many characters and the humor of this show. I will miss Gotham and the many great episodes and adventures it gave me. Also, I love Oswald and Nygma together and for me they are married and in love.

Dark Season 1 - 3

I rewatched the first 2 seasons in preparation for the third one’s premiere and I watched s3 in a day. I was so obsessed. This show is so brilliant, it plays with your mind and it deals with a lot of existential topics. I love it so so much, is one of my favorites forever. Season 2 is my favorite but overall the show has so many great things to offer. It has drama, great characters, shocking plot twists, an ideal amount of romance and the weirdest, most complicated family tree ever.

Star Wars Original trilogy (1977 - 1883)

I’m surprised I finally watched these movies, and I’m even more surprised I loved them! Luke is a fantastic protagonist, Darth Vader is an epic villain and the world is so immersive. I want to be a Jedi, I want to have adventures around the galaxy. I love Han and Leia’s love story and I love R2, C-3PO and Chewie. 

J U L Y

Star Wars Sequel trilogy (2015 - 2019)

These movies for me were amazing, well episode 9 not so much but overall the trilogy was great. I love the new characters and all the references to the original trilogy. Episode 7 feels so nostalgic to me even though I watched the whole Star Wars saga this year. I love the character development of practically every single character here and I love the epic feeling of the fight scenes. In my opinion this trilogy is worth watching, you can’t change my mind.

Barbie and the magic of pegasus (2005)

I’m a sucker for old Barbie movies and this year I made a rewatch marathon with my sister. This one was the one that stayed on my mind for many weeks. I love the magic of the story and the relationship between Annika and Aidan.

The truth about the Harry Quebert affair Season 1

Amazing actors, intriguing premise and a well written mystery. I love this show and its book so much, this is an awesome book to tv adaptation. The plot is brilliant, the setting is beautiful and the characters are interesting. I love Harry and Marcus’s relationship, I love Nola, I love how the pieces fit together so perfectly and how there are no loose ends. This show is very underrated, it deserves more recognition because it’s fantastic.

The baby-sitters club Season 1

This show is so cute and funny. I love the cast, they’re perfect for their roles. It has quite a simple premise but it talks about many important topics of today’s society. The aesthetic of the show is so beautiful, is perfect to watch with you family and it has great pop culture references. I love the vibe of the show and I’m so glad it got renewed for a second season!

A U G U S T

The umbrella academy Season 2

I watched this twice and I liked it better the second time around. I still can’t decide which Hargreeves I love the most, they’re all amazing in their own way. This season was great, it had many beautiful moments and great action sequences. It also had baby Pogo. Do yourself a favor: watch it and listen to the soundtrack.

House of Anubis Season 1

I rewatched one of my favorite shows of my pre-teenage years and I loved season 1 a lot, s2 is not that great and s3 doesn’t exist for me but s1 is perfect. I love the mystery, the boarding school setting, the teen drama and the characters so much. Fabina forever!!!

The truman show (1998)

This movie is FANTASTIC. It has comedy, drama, romance and sci-fi elements with a concept that makes it an instant classic. This was the first time I watched it and I’m amazed by how brilliant it is and how many references to spirituality and capitalism it has. It has a great villain and a protagonist whose character arc is wonderful to watch. I loved the iconic Truman Burbank quote and the ending was just perfect.

S E P T E M B E R

A series of unfortunate events Season 2 & 3 

Rewatching and old favorite always feels so great. I have no words to describe how much I love this series and the Baudelaire siblings. This show is perfect, it has a hilarious sense of humor I love. I love the drama, the tragedy and the ridiculous schemes Count Olaf plots. It also has music and a cast of actors I adore. Season 1 is also amazing but my favorites are 2 & 3.

Tinker Bell and the great fairy rescue (2010)

I made a marathon of all the Tinker Bell movies with my sister and this one was a surprise. I never thought I’d like it because my memories of it weren’t particularly good but wow, this movie was so cute and full of heart. Everything you hope to see in a fairies movie is here. It’s entertaining and very magical.

O C T O B E R

Julie and the Phantoms Season 1

BEST SHOW EVER! I’ve been screaming my love for jatp everywhere, I even made a video about it. This show came to save my 2020. I love the characters, the cast, the ships, the MUSIC, the plot... Every single thing is amazing. I can’t recommend it enough, please watch it and you will see the great masterpiece Kenny Ortega created.

The rocky horror picture show (1975)

I rewatched this movie for Halloween and I realised how much I enjoy it. I love it. It is weird and very sexual but it’s brilliant and has awesome songs. The characters are unique and the situations are bizzarre, the plot starts being simple but it ends in full science fiction madness. Now I need to go to a screening of the movie.

N O V E M B E R

Lost Season 4 

I mention only season 4 because with this rewatch I realized it’s my favorite but ALL SEASONS are part of my best tv shows of the year. Lost is a show that changed my perspective on tv and gave me so many great life lessons. It is a masterpiece. It has an awesome cast of characters, drama, comedy and mystery. This show is superior to newer shows in many ways, it is so well done and the season finales are always packed with action and emotive moments. It uses foreshadowing, flashbacks, flashforwards and many other brilliant narrative devices that make the show a unique experience. Worth watching even after many years after its ending.

D E C E M B E R

Gravity Falls Season 1 & 2

Another rewatch. This is my favorite animated show. I love it so so much. Dipper Pines and me are practically the same person, I relate to him a lot. I love the mystery of the show, all the supernatural creatures, the science fiction and the plot twists. This is more than just a show for kids, this is a masterpiece of storytelling and animation.

Alice in Wonderland (1951)

I decided after re-reading the books to give this movie another chance because I didn’t use to like it. But oh boy, this time I loved it. I loved the songs and the madness of Wonderland. I get now why is many people’s favorite.

The queen’s gambit Season 1

I guess I love chess now, like every person who watched this show. The acting was superb, the characters and the plot were very well written. The pacing, the soundtrack, the setting, I loved everything. Anya Taylor-Joy is a queen, I have no doubt of that. I loved the ending, I was so proud of Beth Harmon!

A Christmas carol (2009)

My sister has always loved this movie but I wasn’t a big fan. This year I read the book, and watching the movie again made me appreciate the story a lot. I’m a big fan now, I think this movie is unique because it has motion capture animation, a timeless story and Jim Carrey acting multiple roles. A true gem in my opinion.

My favorite ships of 2020

My favorite characters of 2020

stumbled upon HOA after nearly years and years and decided to rewatch my childhood show and scroll through tumblr and saw your semi recent asks about it. and i only have one thing to say Peddie really was that ship. Sooo good it is/was!

EXACTLY. I’ll forever be sad over knowing how the writers broke them up in Season 3 and that Fabina just went woosh but Peddie still persisted and that’s the best thing ever.

Fabina Incorrect Quotes

Amber: So, what are your guys' pet names?

Fabian: Oh no we don't really-

Amber: What's the last name of Wendy from Peter Pan?

Fabian: Darling.

Nina, peaking around the corner: Yeah?

Amber: Don't lie to me again.

What do you think are the strong and weak points in each season? Personally, I think of it like this: S1- Strong points are the first half, but the pacing kind of slows down after Patricia's kidnap and rescue until the last couple of episodes. S2 - the pacing's overall a bit slow, but the writing is solid enough that it doesn't matter. S3 - I really like this season and I think it's too slow, so plots take forever to start, but it's strong points are the premiere and the last five episodes.

Season 1: I feel like when I think of HOA, I think of season 1. It’s what got me hooked, so overall I think it’s really strong both in introducing characters and building a solid mystery arc that always kept me wanting more. I feel like the weak moments are the moments that remind me that this was a Nickelodeon show (the Mara/Mick game show scene, Alfie and Jerome dancing in the ballet costumes, etc.) Obviously it’s a kid’s show so those moments were meant to lighten a pretty dark plot, but they always take me out of the story.

Season 2: This has my favorite mystery plot. The tunnels and the tasks were so fun to watch and I love how they raised the stakes after season 1. I also thought Jerome’s side plot with his dad was really well done. For weaknesses, I think the Fabian/Nina/Joy love triangle went a little too far. I wish Fabina had stayed together longer, or that Fabian actually gave Joy a chance. Joy’s pining and Nina’s sass get annoying after awhile.

Season 3: Season 3 there was a shift where it started feeling like a teen show instead of a kids show and I love that. The second half was incredible and I’m still obsessed with the sinners arc. I also adore Jeroy and love their arc. Its weak point is how choppy it feels, but now we know it’s because they shot block 2 and 3 of this season before block 1. (Alex mentioned this in our interview, I can’t remember if it’s while we were recording or not.)

Curious what other people think too!

6 & 7 for the fanfic questions pls?

Oh boy, these will be long ones. Buckle in, boys, I'm on mobile and cant cut.

A Love For The Ages

Setting: Scene from Tears of Gold Chapter 22. Fabian reflects on his relationships with the women in his life after his first date with Joy. 

The date with Joy had gone as well as to be expected, reflected Fabian. Not that it was a date, since he still had feelings for Nina... at least he thought he did. Fabian was almost a hundred percent sure that she returned his feelings. He had only agreed to the breakup because she hadn’t wanted to date anymore but seeing how Nina reacted to his “date” last night, she totally wanted to get back together. Amber was obviously at the end of her patience with the situation, but Fabian wasn’t about to drop Joy because she made Nina uncomfortable. Despite her being away for a year, she was still the same girl who broke Jerome’s nose for stealing his calculator when they were 12. They had laughed all the way to Mr. Sweet’s office about the look on the cocky boy’s face. Fabian had felt so happy and blessed to finally have a friend! Of course wherever Joy went Patricia followed. Fabian had been scared of the loud girl when they first moved into Anubis house. Her growing friendship with the house tricksters was also an off-putting factor since Fabian seemed to be their favorite victim. But as he got to know her, the more he started to like the punk girl. She was the one who introduced him to music, real music, such as Sick Puppies and Cradle of Filth. Not that anyone could know this of course, he had a reputation to maintain. The trio quickly became inseparable doing everything together for years, until that fateful fall day. September 13th will be forever ingrained in Fabian’s mind, the day that half his world disappeared and the day the amazing American firecracker that was Nina Martin entered his life, blowing all that Fabian knew to hell. Nina Martin, every time her name was said it felt like an incantation. The girl was a whirlwind goddess who crashed into his life and opened his eyes to so much more. From their first meeting, her crashing into the immovable Patricia, he was captivated by her. The brunette had captured his heart before he had even known it was happening. Fabian spent the year pulled between his residual feelings of duty to Joy, his first friend who he knew had been developing feeling for him, and his growing love for Nina. As the months passed without news of Joy or her return his guilt began to disappear and Fabian threw himself wholly into his growing relationship with the mysterious American girl. It wasn’t fair, he reflected, that he brushed aside what he had been building with Joy so easily but love rarely is fair. Nina was like a fire who consumed all in her path as her influence spread in the house. She befriended or made alliances (in the case of Jerome) with all but Mick and Mara. Fabian had never felt more alive than he did that year, as the Sibuna Club raced against time, The Society, and Rufus Zeno to retrieve the missing puzzle pieces and assemble the mythical Cup of Ankh. When it was all said and done Fabian had felt slightly empty; the quest was over and they had gotten Joy back, but something was missing. Kissing Nina, Fabian finally felt complete, he didn’t care that it was in front of all their friends he finally had his Chosen One. The following weeks were weird and nice at the same time. Not a lot changed between them, except that they now occasionally kissed and he didn’t have to hide his desire to hold her hand. But before the pair knew it exams came and went, and it was time for Nina to return to America. The pair decided to exchange letters over the summer like the protagonists of their shared favorite historical novels. Sure they had cell phones and laptops but there had been something that seemed so romantic about an exclusively letter-based correspondence. Looking back, that could have been where things began to go wrong. They had both kept up with their letters but being an ocean away placed a strain on the still developing relationship. Fabian’s letters tended to consist of stories about his sister Mia and the trouble the pair got into on his parent’s estate, tales about working in Uncle Aide’s shop, and most frequently how much he missed Nina. Nina would regale him with content about her Gran, the latest protest she took part in, her job at the local library and how she wished to be back in England with them. September arrived and Fabian immediately felt off balance. After months of exchanging letters he found himself frozen in the face of his best friend and girlfriend. As bad as it sounds, he was thrilled when Jerome and Alfie had accidentally/on purpose crashed their reunion. The pair had signaled the others that they could come back in and conversation had begun to flow again. The first few days of them new term had Fabian on edge, but he slowly fell back into a comfortable pattern both with school and Nina. True, they hadn’t gone on an official date yet, but that didn’t matter since they were finally back. Their first date would happen when it happened, he told himself, not wanting to pressure Nina. So when Mick and Mara had suggested a double date he had jumped at the chance. He hadn’t thought at the time about Nina’s lack of enthusiasm. He simply chocked it up to the fact that it was Mick and Mara. Fabian loved Mick, but he couldn’t deny that the jock and Nina hadn’t bonded at all since her arrival the year before. They didn’t get to go on that date though due to Nina’s Gran’s unplanned arrival. Yes it was unfair of him, but Fabian couldn’t help but be upset about spending the evening looking at Granny Martin’s trip photos instead of going into town with his girlfriend. So while Nina’s Gran was in town he spent most of his time with Joy, he knew it was a bad idea since the other girl still had feelings for him, but he told himself he was giving Nina space to spend time with her Gran before she had to leave again. But it didn’t stop there. When Nina’s Gran finally left there was suddenly the bid and he and Joy were working together just like old times, and ever so slowly those old feelings for Joy began to resurface. They were not enough to eclipse his feelings for Nina, but they were there. So Fabian threw himself into trying to ensure that “Fabina” worked out. When Amber demanded that they have a double date Fabian knew that was it, the perfect thing to cement their still unsteady relationship. What better than a double date with Nina’s best friend, well other than him! The date turned it an epic disaster, so the couple retreated to the cellar. Surrounded by their old memories the couple tried number combo after combo and eventually hit a brick wall. Fabian couldn’t help but feel like the blocked entrance was a sign for their relationship. So when Nina asked if he had not wanted to go on the date, well he just knew that it was time to call it quits. Despite their breakup and his developing relationship with Joy, Fabian always expected that they would eventually get back together. The arrival of Eddie though had him worried as Nina seemed into him and he was American! After that it was just one thing after another that had the pair being pushed further and further apart despite being bonded by the death marks on their arms. 

Joy kissing him at the ball was unexpected, but Fabian had to admit deep down not entirely unwelcome. It was nice to have someone interested in him, but he couldn’t see anything happening between himself and Joy besides a deep friendship. So when Amber’s advice hadn’t worked, he had resolved to speak to the girl himself and put an end to any romantic thoughts she might have for the two of them. But standing there, looking into the loving eyes of his oldest friend, he couldn’t bring himself to hurt her. So he agreed to go to a movie with her. 

Fabian hoped he could hide the date from Nina so she wouldn’t get the wrong idea, but he should have known better after years of living with Alfie and Jerome. The duo had gleefully filled Nina in about his date and Fabian’s heart broke seeing the shattered look on her face. That was exactly why he hadn’t wanted her to know. When she mentioned that she had planned on getting them tickets his heart skipped a beat, a movie about Egypt with Joy definitely was not a date, but with Nina it could mean something more...

I'm still crying. The strangest, most depressing noises are coming out of my mouth right now.

Going off the house of Anubis couple question- what is your head cannons about the fate of the couples? Also sorry for another Anubis related question

Hey don't apologize, I asked for this.

Okay, so my headcanons about ultimate fates post-show

Fabian and Mara both immediately go "hm that was weird" and break it off after a one-time fling and mutually decide to never speak of it again

Alfie and Willow date through a couple years of college, maybe even all of college. They would be very sweet and have a very fun time together. Willow's in the first row for every one of Alfie's improv shows and she's an avid supporter of everything he does. Alfie loves to do little romantic surprises for her. Late-night study sessions and food runs are a common occurrence. They have a fun time going on "adventures" over the weekends. It's a very happy and lighthearted relationship. However, I don't see it as a long-term relationship, so after a few years or maybe even all of college, they go their separate ways. But it's very amicable, and they stay friends.

Any Joy and Jerome headcanons I have are colored by my extreme dislike for them. Usually I like to pretend they don't exist. So in MY headcanons they never happen at all, but if we're going realistically, they probably stay together maybe a year or two and then break up. I'm not going to discuss them any further.

Now we come to Fabina, and I know they didn't officially end up together at the end of the show but in my headcanons they are absolutely endgame. No question in my mind. I have extensive post-show headcanons for them: I believe that Fabian reaches out and reconnects after graduation, and they rekindle their relationship and grow from there. Fabian eventually moves to America to be with her, and down the line they eventually get married and have kids. 3 kids, specifically, all girls. You can check out my detailed Fabina headcanons I posted about awhile back here.

Now Peddie. True love, together forever, soulmates. Together all through college, move in together after college, they get married, and eventually have 2 kids, one boy one girl. I have MANY headcanons about them, so many that I can't fit it in here, that requires its own post if you want it. And when I say many I really mean it; I literally have a document in my google drive titled "peddie married blurbs" that is no joke 100 pages (albeit spaced very erratically) of various headcanons, blurbs, ficlets, and vignettes about their post-series life together, whether that's in college, living together, or after they get married. I even have an entire wedding fic about my headcanons about them. So if you want more feel free to ask or get more specific but I can't do it in this post, I'll just go overboard.
