OUHHHH yessssss!
pairing: Karl Heisenberg x GN!reader
{{note: I generally write REVillage fics Post-canon/alternate universe, assuming Ethan and rose, Mia etc. never existed sry XD}}
Warnings: swearing, brief mention of gore, very mild sexual themes
Tumblr media
Ohoho where do I begin?
Karl when he first spots you is... intrigued to say the least.
You weren't like the others, you dressed differently, acted differently, and most importantly... you weren't like the other villagers, blindly following and worshipping Miranda!
Now, Karl being Karl... he thought about pulling his usual BS about "I'm a metal lord, fear me!" but quickly decided against it; not wanting to scare you off or anything. Especially since you didn't seem local, therefore not knowing who the fuck he is.
{and pshhh don't tell anyone i told you this, but despite his huge ego... he might not actually want you to know who he really is at first. So he'll try his best to act "normal" and as human as possible}
After he finally approached you and engaged in a regular conversation, he quickly finds himself craving more.
Long story short, he seeks you out in the village again the next day, inviting you over to his factory because... he didn't really have a house. Anyway, he wouldn't show you what he actually does in there... you two will be in his office on the first floor, he ain't taking you down into the actual factory until he is sure you won't freak out.
This "friend meeting" (totally not a date ͡ ° ͜ʖ ͡ °) goes smoothly surprisingly. He'll ask you about your tattoos and/or piercings, scars etc. {if you have any}.
After a long-ass conversation about all kinds of shit, he'll just ask the question we've all been waiting for.
"So buttercup, you... eh... one of those emos?"
Time for the explanation between emo, goth, punk, rock. Two minutes into this, Karl stops listening... he got his answer.
You listen to heavy music.
And so does he.
Start talking about Metallica, Slipknot, I prevail, Rob Zombie, ACDC, black sabbath, Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold, hell.... even SOME my chemical romance and Seether- and i promise, you'll get his attention piqued!
Especially if we're talking german bands such as "Rammstein" or "Die Toten Hosen" and he'll just... scream internally?
Like first of all... there's someone who also hates mother miranda besides him, they are funny, hot AND love german bands?!
SIGN HIM TF UP!
Needless to say, you two started a relationship quickly.
Despite needing to make his huge ass metal army, he takes a day off to make a bigass stereo...
{and then later that day Lady Dimitrescu complains about the loud ass music coming from his factory that even SHE and her three girls can hear from her castle. lol. Heisenberg tells her to shut the fuck up}
His huge goal is obviously to kill miranda... and then after escaping this shit village together with you. When the day comes, you two will celebrate with flipping off Lady supersized bitch and rolling off to a concert
{which likely isn't a good idea... imagine Karl wanting the microphone from the singer or something. You be chillin and there's just... a floating microphone... you be like... "Karl? what are YOU DOING?!" meanwhile Karl just has a shit eating grin as the crowd screams}
But let's not jump to far into the future...
Right now, you two are stuck under Miranda's disgusting-ass thumb.
Dark times man. It's shit, but whenever you waddle into his office whilst he's working... just y'know... get your phone out and play one of his favorite songs!
This man will {depending on his mood} shoo you away, or most-likely drop what he's doing and just... *grab* you and start juming around the room like monkies in a moshpit.
Once the song finishes, his hand will move from cupping your cheek, to cupping CHEEKS. Just him seeing you rock out to his favorite songs... is enough for Karl to get all hot 'n bothered. So expect some bending over the Work-bench and nice grindin' whilst 'Closer' by nine inch nails plays ;)
EXTRA:
if you like steampunk
this
man
will
just...
Scramble to collect little gears and screws... making little earrings, rings, necklaces etc.
also
stud bracelets.
OH
and if you like wearing chokers
be careful
that awakens a beast within him
"oh ho ho buttercup! What do we have here? Want me to attach a leash and make you *my pet*?

Night At The Garrison (A Tommy Shelby Imagine)
Wattpad - @BRINGMETHECHLOE
Tumblr - @hail-tommy-shelby
{This is the first smut imagine I have wrote so forgive me if it's not the best. I would love your feedback after you have read it, if there are things I need to improve on I'd love it if you would tell me. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
If you like this imagine I will be posting more on this Tumblr for you to read. I am also starting a full fanfiction for Tommy Shelby on my wattpad which will have many chapters.
I hope you enjoy my writing. Happy reading.}
For as long as I can remember it's always been me and Ada. Ever since we were children you couldn't find one of us without the other. We used to say it was me and her against the world and we continued that way forever. Being best friends with her for this long we are more like sisters now. Such a close bond that can never be broken. We have no secrets between us, never will. No secret could be too big that we couldn't tell. That's how I knew about her and Freddie Thorne long before anyone else. I keep her secrets and she keeps mine. I was also the first to find out when she got pregnant. Me and Polly were the only ones that knew.
Polly and I are very close too. She classes me as family and has done since I was little. With me and Ada so close I practically grew up with and around the Shelby's. Polly and Ada treated me like family and the brothers always treated me well, especially John. Arthur used to tease him saying he loved me.
As I got older the way the Shelby's treated me never changed. They always made sure I was okay and kept me close. Tommy however, Tommy changed towards me. We used to talk, joke and have a laugh, then it all seemed to stop. He started talking to me less and less until I only got the occasional word out of him. I never knew why. I guess as he took on more and more responsibility with Shelby Company Limited he had no time to waste talking to his little sisters friend.
As the company got bigger and I grew up Polly insisted they give me a job. Now years later here I am, still working for the company and still as close to Ada and Polly as ever.
Now I spend most days working with the girls while doing the books. I've always loved working with them, it's always a laugh with Polly and Esme. After she married John getting to know her, me and Esme became great friends. We get along well and I'm glad John has someone like her, she's good for him.
Lizzie is the only other girl to work with us doing the books sometimes. She doesn't say much especially to me. I always get the feeling she really dislikes me and sometimes at work I catch her staring at me. I really don't understand Lizzie. I know Esme really doesn't like her. As soon as she found out John slept with her and nearly married her that was it. The dislike was clear. I don't think Polly is particularly a fan of her either. Her and Esme have this joke that Lizzie's mood that day depends on if she's currently fucking Tommy or not. I try not to think of it as the thought makes me feel sick.
Only Ada knows this but when I was younger I always hoped I would end up with him. I mean who wouldn't? Tommy is absolutely gorgeous. As I grew older I knew me and him would never be together and I accept that now. I still think he's stunning but I know he won't be mine. I just hope he finds someone that truly loved him and doesn't just want to fuck him.
Now here I am. I've finished work for the day and I'm at Polly's house with her and Ada. Tonight is a big night. Arthur and Tommy have completely done up the garrison and tonight is it's grand opening. Everyone is going to be there. The whole Shelby family and everyone who works for them. I'm really looking forward to it. Ada has a babysitter for Karl so we decided tonight we are going all out.
Me, Ada and Polly are getting ready, knowing tonight is a big deal we all want to look out best. After a bit of consideration I decide I'm going to wear my best stuff and dress up. For a little confidence I put on my black lace bra and panties with a matching garter belt that holds up my stockings. Just knowing I'm wearing this boosts my confidence greatly.
Getting dressed I start to put on my black embroidered dress which I bought just for the occasion. I love the dress as it hugs my hips and falls to my knees. It shows off my body nicely and looks great with the black heels I've paired with it.
After finishing my hair I stare into the mirror and smile. I apply a final coat of red lipstick and give myself an all over glance. There ready. I look good. I feel good. Tonight is going to be great.
Polly and Ada are ready soon after me, both looking gorgeous. With all of us happy it's time, we step out the house onto the streets of Birmingham and get into the car. It's not a long ride to the garrison and we are there rather quickly. The closer we get there I notice the more noise I hear. As we pull up on the street I hear it clearly, jazz music playing, people laughing and singing. By just the sound alone you would know it's a party.
Getting out the car I look at Polly, she has a huge smile on her face. Slowly the three of us start to walk and we reach the doors of the garrison.
"Tonight's gonna be a good night girls" I hear Ada from next to me before she swings the doors open.
As soon as I enter and my feet hit the floor I have to take a moment to take in my surroundings. The new garrison looks phenomenal, so fancy and so gold. The entire place was gold and all the chairs red velvet. A jazz band are playing next to the dance floor where many couples are already dancing. I've never seen the garrison this busy before. Everyone I know is here. Looking to the bar I can see Arthur behind it giving out bottles of champagne, with a big smile on his face. He looks really happy tonight, I've not seen him this happy in a while.
Looking around the room I take in the sights and atmosphere of the place when I suddenly feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist from behind. Gasping I turn around shocked to see a laughing face behind me.
"Fucking John" I shout hitting him on the shoulder which gets Ada and Polly laughing.
"Some things never change" Polly laughs then directs us all to the table where Esme is already sat.
John finds his seat next to Esme and pulls out a bottle of whiskey "I must say you all look lovely."
"Aren't you a charmer" I joke taking a seat next to Ada.
Cracking open the bottle of whiskey conversation and drink flowed equally. Before I knew it the bottle is empty, I'm a little tipsy and Ada is pulling me up to dance.
Finding a rhythm to the music we start to dance in the middle of the floor. We twirl eachother shaking our hips and laughing like a bunch of children. I keep turning and twirling until I feel it. I feel like someone is watching me. Turning around once more I spot it. I could only take a quick glance but I spot it, I know those eyes. Swaying my hips in a new direction I turn both me and Ada around so I can face him. There he is, looking as good as ever and looking at me. Thomas Shelby.
Tommy is sat at a table, a glass of whiskey in one hand and a cigarette in the other. I notice Lizzie is sat with him. Both of them are not talking and they're both looking at me. Why are they looking at me? They have never payed any attention to me, so why now? Both of them staring like this is making me nervous.
I focus back on my dancing trying to distant myself from the thought of them both looking at me. I spin Ada around as she does the same to me, as I turn around I see Lizzie. She doesn't look very happy as she walks out the garrison. I take a look at Tommy to see if something had happened but his eyes haven't moved from me at all. He's looking at me so intently it almost scares me. Every nerve in my body is telling me to look away but I can't. I continue swinging my hips but my eyes lay on him as his are on me.
Oh those eyes, those amazing bright blue eyes. The way he's looking at me, it's like he can see inside me soul. I've never experienced something so intense. This one look from him and my body is on fire. One look from him and I'd do anything he asked. This man, the man who with one stare has me completely at his will.
I snap myself out of my thoughts, I need a drink.
"I'm going to the bar" I shout to Ada over the music then walk to get a drink. As I reach the bar I notice I'm breathing heavy and feel hot. I order two whiskeys and wonder if Tommy is still watching me. Chancing another look, I see he's still there staring at me. Why is he doing this? I down one of my whiskeys hoping it will calm my nerves, then I see it. He's smirking at me. Thomas Shelby smirking at me. Maybe he knows the effect he has on me. Oh god I hope not.
Avoiding his gaze I take my whiskey and go and sit with Polly.
"Are you alright Hun? You look hot" she asks.
My cheeks heat even more "I'm out of breath from dancing" I lie which makes Polly laugh.
After some conversation I start to zone out, John, Esme and Polly continue talking while I just think. My mind wonders back to Tommy. I don't understand what's going on. He never pays attention to me and then tonight, the way he's looking at me. What's changed? And that smirk, I've never seen that before. The way his lips looked so desirable. The man is so unbelievably sexy. Crossing my legs I snap myself out of my thoughts and drink another whiskey.
A few bottles of whiskey and a lot of dancing later the night has flown by. Everybody else has gone and the only people left are me, Ada, Polly, Arthur, and Tommy. The band left so the only music playing is coming from a gramophone.
Even though it's late me and Ada are still dancing. Ada seems to be very drunk and stumbling while twirling around. As I shake my hips I hear a loud bang which I turn to see is Ada, she's on the floor laughing hysterically.
"Bloody hell Ada, how much have you had to drink?" I hear Arthur moan as he helps her up. I can't help but giggle as I continue to twirl.
Arthur picks Ada up in his arms and Polly grabs her things "come on you, let's get you home."
I keep dancing with closed eyes just focusing on moving my body to the music. After the song finishes I open my eyes to see only Tommy. The rest of them have gone. Tommy is sat down with a drink watching me. As I realize it's only me and him left I stop dancing and sit down at the table. Me and Tommy haven't been alone together in years, this is new. Looking up at him, he has poured us both a glass of whiskey and I reach for a cigarette. Almost instantly Tommy holds a lot match up to me. I slowly lean towards him lighting my cigarette while looking into his eyes. Just looking at him nerves travel through my body.
"The place looks great" I say taking a drag and trying to make conversation.
"You looked like you had a good time" he stated "you're a good dancer."
I drink the whiskey trying not to blush "I love to dance."
"You know I've not danced all night."
I gulp as he stands up Infront of me putting out his hand.
"Dance with me."
I take a moment to watch him shocked before putting out my cigarette and taking his hand.
Tommy leads me to the dance floor before putting one hand on the small of my back and mine in his other.
After a second, he slowly starts to move, pulling me closer to him. The dance is simple and slow. Tommy leads and I follow his movements. Turning us around slowly he then lifts up my arm and gets me to twirl. I couldn't help but laugh as he takes my hand again, "I don't believe I've ever seen you dance Mr Shelby."
"I am a man of many talents" he spoke turning is around.
"I'm sure you are" I smile.
I can't believe this is happening. I'm dancing with Tommy. I've never seen this side of him before. He's being so sweet.
Pulling me closer I feel Tommy's head in the crack of my neck. Every breath he takes I can feel, each almost sending shivers down my spine. Taking a deep breath I take in his scent as I feel his hand on my waist. He smells amazing. I've never noticed that before. It's like a mix of cigarettes, whiskey, smoke and pure Tommy Shelby. Can this man be anymore perfect?
As the song finishes I slowly pull away "I guess I should be getting home."
Tommy insisted he would drive me and the entire ride home made conversation. This is the most I've spoken to him in a long time. He asked about me and how I was doing and I asked about him and the company. As we arrive at my place I've had such a good time with him I don't want him to leave. "Thank you for driving me home."
"It was my pleasure" Tommy turns off the car, gets out and opens the car door for me.
"Thank you." Walking to my front door Tommy is right behind me. I get out my keys unlocking the door before turning to face home. "Thanks again for driving me home."
Tommy steps forward his arms wrapping around my waist, mine instantly wrap around his neck.
"Tommy I " before I could finish talking his lips are on mine.
His lips, which I thought would be tough are soft and plump. The kiss starts out soft, both of us getting used to each other before it depends. His tongue invading my mouth as a moan escapes my lips. Not wanting the kiss to end I pull Tommy into my house shutting the door. My back hits the wall as his hands find my hips, sighing into his mouth I tug on his hair.
My mouth finds he jaw as our hands fumble to take each others coats off. Once achieved my hands start undoing shirt buttons revealing his chest. Tommy's lips move lower sucking on the sensitive skin on my neck making me moan, "Tommy."
"Jump" he whispers heavily in my ear, I do exactly as he says wrapping my legs around his waist, my hands clawing at his chest. In this position I feel him. I can feel him growing hard underneath me, our clothes an unwanted barrier. My hips involentry rock back and forth the sensation making me want a sweet release. I hear Tommy groan biting my neck at the feeling, "where's your room?"
"Upstairs to the right."
With no hesitation Tommy carries me upstairs placing me on my bed before pulling away. "No Tommy I want you."
"Patience love" he smirks looking down at me "you have me." Leaning over me he rejoins his lips to mine. "Your'e wearing too many clothes" he breathes pulling away.
I'm now sat on the edge of the bed with Tommy on the floor between my legs. I feel his hands slowly stroking my thighs then higher and higher as he lifts off my dress. I don't know what it is but him undressing me like this feels so intimate, like he's finally seeing me after all these years. Throwing my dress to the floor he removes my shoes then lays me flat.
I can't see him but I can feel him. A kiss on my upper thigh makes me squirm.
"Stay still."
I do as I'm told and relax my body. Another kiss on my thigh has my senses heighten but I stay still following his instructions. Slowly he kisses down my leg bring my stocking with him. As he makes his way all the way down he removes my stocking before starting again on the other, only this time slower.
The feeling of him slowly undressing me, his mouth on my legs is magical. I close my eyes focusing on the feeling. As he finishes removing the last stocking my body ignites with anticipation. My legs are now completely bare and his hands wonder over the newly unclothed skin.
Lowering his head between my thighs I feel his breath against my underwear. "Tommy please" I gasp.
"You are so beautiful."
His breath hits my sensitive area making my nipple's harden. Sitting me up, Tommy's mouth is on mine again, his tongue taking over mine as I pull on his hair earning me a growl that makes my body clench. The kiss becomes more urgent as he takes off my bra throwing it to the floor.
"Lay back" he instructs standing up.
Groaning at the loss I do as he says laying back down, Tommy standing over me.
"My my what a beautiful sight."
I bite my lip at his words watching him look at every inch of my body. As Tommy looks over me he removes the rest of his clothes.
"So so beautiful."
A shocked gasp escapes my mouth as he removes his boxers leaving him completely naked. His erect penis at full attention. He's so big! This man could not get any more perfect if he tried. He's a masterpiece.
Tommy urgently returns his lips to mine as he lays on top of me, my hands exploring his back and arms. I feel him nudge my legs apart with his knee as he settles in-between them. The tip of his penis touching my clothed core.
I moan into the kiss at the sensation, his hands finding their way to my breast. Kissing down my jaw to my neck his mouth then latches on to one of my nipples. Tommy's mouth is sucking on one nipple as his fingers play with the other. He leaves no part of my breast ignored as his mouth and hands explore every inch of my sensitive skin.
Continuing to give me pleasure he removes the last of my underwear so I am completely naked beneath him. I can't believe I am naked underneath Thomas Shelby. The man I've always wanted and here he is giving me such pleasure. His hands don't move from my breasts as he starts to kiss over my stomach. Many emotions are filling my head, lust, joy, impatience and I feel quite vulnerable. Being in this position is so overwhelming I'm vulnerable to his every touch and would do anything he asks of me.
Slowly as he kisses sloppily lower down my stomach I feel him open my legs wider. He can see me, all of me. Just knowing he can see every crevasse of my body makes my heart race and pussy wet.
"Tommy please" I moan a little breathless. My need for him growing to a unbearable height.
"You're so wet for me" I hear him groan.
Biting my lip I run my hands through my hair trying to control my urges.
"I want a taste."
As soon as the words leave his mouth I am hit with a wave of pleasure. His mouth has attached itself to my clit licking and sucking on every nerve, a familiar throbbing taking over.
"Fuck" I moan my hands grabbing into his hair. The feeling of his mouth on me is indescribable. My hips involentry bucking at the pleasure "Tommy I need you, fuck me."
Tommy sits up, his mouth grazing mine, I can feel my wetness on his lips. "You want me to fuck you?" As the words leave his mouth. I feel the force of his two fingers enter me making me moan.
"Fuck yes."
He circles his fingers inside me the pleasure intense "with these?"
"No" I whimper trying to distant myself from the pleasure for a second. "With these" I moan grabbing his hardened cock.
Tommy shudders at my touch as I stroke him, his penis rock hard in my hand "please Tommy."
Removing his fingers from inside me he stops my hand from stroking him. My knees open wider as he sets himself in-between grabbing himself, "you want this?"
My hips buckle at his voice my pussy dripping wet "yes."
Laying his body on mine he kisses my lips. I want him so much. The kiss is full of urgency and need.
Moaning I feel his cock rub against my clit in circles. I break the kiss and look up at him and he at me. Its only a moment but we just look at eachother, almost taking eachother in before locking lips again.
Slowly I feel him sink into me, his lips silenting my screams. He feels so good inside me, almost heavenly. His big cock fills my full leaving no empty space.
Rocking his hips I feel every inch of him as he feels me wrapped around him. "You feel so good."
Knowing I'm giving Tommy pleasure turns me on more. Starting slow at first I can see his eyes scrunch up at the feeling of being inside me.
"Please Tommy deeper" I whimper in his ear wanting more of him if it was even possible.
"Fuck" he groans at the sound of my voice before thrusting into me at a breathtaking pace.
I wrap my legs around him and pull his body flat against me. The feeling of him is almost too much, the familiar pressure building up inside me. Bucking my hips to meet his every thrust he pins my wrists above my head leaving me unable to move, then continuing to pound into me mercilessly. I have no control or choice but to take every ounce of pleasure he is giving to me.
"Fuck Tommy" as his pace fastens I know I will definitely be bruised tomorrow. Each thrust has me closer and closer to the edge bringing tears to my eyes the pleasure that intense. It's like nothing I've ever felt. I never want this to end, I want to stay like this with him forever.
I feel my insides start to tighten and clench as Tommy goes deeper and faster.
"Cum for me."
I can't speak no words will leave my mouth, nothing but my moans and whimpers. I wrap my legs tighter around him not wanting to lose any part of this blissful feeling. A few more deep thrusts and my body begins to shake. I close my eyes tight shut and hold onto Tommy for dear life. In just a few seconds my orgasm rips through my body as I scream Tommy's name over and over.
Feeling my muscles clench around Tommy his thrust start to get sloppy and his cock starts to twitch. Two thrusts later his orgasm hits it's high and I feel him cum inside me.
Trying to catch our breath we both lay there still connected, both letting the other calm down after our highs. Silence fills the room, nothing is heard now except our deep breaths.
As we both com round I whimper as Tommy removes himself from me and lays back down.
"That was ..." I pant.
"Great?"
"Better" I smile laying my head on his chest " we should do it again sometime."
"Oh we will be."
I giggle as we both lay there starting to fall asleep. Tonight was the best night of my life, I've never felt this happy and content. We wrap our arms around eachother and close our eyes letting sleep take over our bodies.
I hope you liked it. As I said it was my first ever smut written so if you have any advice or feedback I would be so grateful if you message me. Thanks for reading.

don't worry it can still happen.. robert might cheat on aaron with chrissie next year :)
Oh nonnie! I mean, you could be right there- who knows? But I acutely have loads of theories about this! So, buckle in; this is probably going to be 1,000 words longer than it needs to be.
There are three points to this post;
I think this storyline is trying to tell us that Rob will not ever cheat again
Rob cheating with Chrissie would have been better for Bex’s character and mean that she wasn’t just brought into the show to be a walking womb
This could have been a really interesting story for Chrissie too, especially with the Lachlan rumours
I quite firmly believe that this storyline is trying to show us that Rob isn’t going to cheat again. When the first spoilers came through that The Incident was going to happen, I was actually kinda on board with it (when we thought it was just a kiss.) I absolutely do not want Aaron to be cheated on, but I thought that showing the audience the potential for it would be a good thing. Because I know that the GA would always be convinced that Rob would cheat again unless we saw him be completely devastated by it.
What I thought was going to happen was that Rob would kiss Bex and she would push him away, leaving Rob with the revelation that even though he tries to pretend that he has fully moved on, those parts of his personality still exist and he needs to work on them rather than ignore them. AND this would have meant Bex drawing a line under her past love (?) for him and make the decision to move on.
Obviously, that’s not what we got.
But, in a very complicated way, it’s almost better? In the sense that Rob is now really having to deal with the huge mistake he made. He can’t escape it, he can’t pay it to go away, he can’t push it under the carpet and pretend it never happened. This is partly why I think Vic is so involved with Bex right now. So that Rob has to face his mistake at every turn.
This should have two effects: hopefully it will make the boys talk to each other more (Aaron has done his own fair share of sweeping and this hiding from each other cannot be good. I’d like to see them work on this) AND it will show Rob the very real possibility of losing Aaron explicitly because of something he and he alone did. He’s already been through this twice, with the reveal and pub episodes, and he’s going to have to keep going through it for the rest of the child’s life.
The short version- I think what’s going on here is the change that means that Robert Sugden is never going to cheat again. And that is a big step since cheating made up such a huge part not just of Ryan Hawley’s Rob but also Karl’s; every relationship Rob has had has involved cheating in some way. Changing his character so that he won’t cheat again, and so the audience won’t think he’ll cheat again requires something pretty drastic, and I think that we can all agree that if this storyline is anything, it’s that.
On to Bex specifically: I feel that the way that her character has been written has been very inconsistent. I am also slightly concerned that she’s had so few storylines that are independent from the Sudgens. As such, it’s very easy to think that the main reason she was added to the cast was to be a part of this one particular storyline. Emily has said in interviews that she feels like Bex isn’t given as much sympathy because she hasn’t been in the soap that long. And to an extent she’s right. Because of the inconsistencies, we don’t know all that much about her character- her motivations are very difficult to work out, the snarky fun person who wanted the old Robert back is not the same woman as the one who feels like he forced her into an abortion. But, if Rob had cheated with another female cast member who was better established than her character may read as more sympathetic as the audience would understand her wants and desires more than they understand Bex’s.
Which brings me to Chrissie and the potential storylines there. Firstly, Chrissie is a much more established character and she is capable of inspiring both sympathy and derision (my mum, for example, thinks she was totally justified in setting Rob’s car on fire but thinks she went too far to punish Andy) so we instantly get a two sided view of the issue. Secondly, while Bex was set up as a worry for Aaron due to her past relationship with Rob there would still be that worry with Chrissie. This could have very easily been established with comments about Rob’s marriage to her in the lead up to the Robron wedding. After all, Rob never made the choice to leave her for Aaron and Aaron was always second best to her in terms of Robert’s long-term priorities. This would speak to anyone who has had a similar relationship where one person has left another for someone else and has the potential to resonate with a far wider part of the audience.
So, a better story for the GA, but could it have the potential to be a good story for Chrissie? Well, there is no way in hell that she would ever touch Rob again with a 10 ft bargepole. But we know this soap has no problem making drunk people sleep together. So, let’s suspend our disbelief for a moment and run with the drunk sex idea. It is abundantly clear that this story was never meant to be about consent, but having both parties equally drunk would have inspired a different conversation anyway. Then we have the fact the Chrissie would take the morning after pill- but what if she doesn’t remember? Then we might question why she wouldn’t have an abortion. But if we’re expected to believe that Bex always wanted to be a mum then I think we can easily believe that Chrissie wanted more children but had agreed with Rob that Lachlan was enough for now.
It seems like we’re heading towards a story about inheritance here, with John leaving and Bex’s (and I’m going to call them as I see them here) bizarre outbursts at Chrissie. But Bex doesn’t need to be pregnant in order to get her hands on Lawrence’s money as she is already his biological daughter. Whereas Chrissie and Lachlan are not and could be cut out- but would Lawrence really do that if Chrissie was pregnant again. A biological daughter verses an adopted one with two children? Seems like a more even playing field to me…
And while we’re on the subject of Lachlan: I would not be surprised if, privately, Chrissie thinks she messed up a bit there. Knowing her, she’ll blame a lot of people before she blames herself, but I also think she would acknowledge that the buck stops with her and that she won’t be winning any mother of the year awards. But 16 years later, could she get it right this time. Could this be the chance to prove that she can parent a child and that she’s learnt from her mistakes? Would she want to keep it to prove to herself and her family that she can be a good mum? Would the child give her something to hold onto once serialkiller!Lachlan rises?
Or, and I think that this would play into it, would she keep the child knowing that it will punish Robert and Aaron? Because however much Bex tries to tell us that she likes Aaron and doesn’t want to hurt him and wants to look out for him, I’m pretty sure that Chrissie doesn’t give a flying fuck about the man who slept with her husband for 6 months despite knowing they were married.
So yeah, that’s why the Chrissie and Robert theory made me scream a little. Nonnie, if you or anyone else is still reading this I would like to say sorry for putting you through that all. I just have a lot of feelings ;)
