Pausing three is a magic number while Beth & rio speak then picking up the song again while the camera lingers on the TWO of them might really be one of the funniest things the show did
hey, I was just wondering if the gg rewatch is going to start again? No pressure, I totally understand if it’s not.
Hey! I'm open to starting it again - I basically lost capacity to run it for a couple of months between my book tour, starting a new freelancing contract, my best friend's wedding and sister's divorce, but I'm a bit freer again now.
It'd be good to get a sense if people were keen to continue? What does everyone think?
It's so random that I'm even thinking on this now but I remain fascinated. It never occurred to me at the time that when Rio basically forces Beth to take on the strip club he is also proclaiming pretty loudly that he thinks she's capable of handling it and recognizing her past accomplishments. A backhanded compliment perhaps but there.
Okay, so basically, I've been revisiting the older FNF mods (from around 2020-2021), for nostalgia's sake. So I started rewatching the FNF HD mod. I knew it was 90% a reskin mod, so I did not have my expectations TOO high.
But for the most part, I don't dislike it as much as other people do, the artstyle's neat and it was one of the first few mods that tried to give FNF a story. Even if it's not as cool as it used to be back then, it was fine for its time.
But I do have ONE pet peeve with it. The part I remember disliking the most, even back in 2021:
Pico. Yeah, I'm gonna be real, I did not like Pico in FNF HD. They just made him into the biggest dickhead imaginable in that mod.
I know Pico from FNF or even the Pico's School series isn't exactly a saint, I know that, but bruh, in FNF HD the guy was just insuferable.
So it's true that GF's dad hired Pico to kill BF, that part is accurate.
But in vanilla FNF, Pico CHOSE to spare BF due to their past relationship. In HD, nah he's cool killing BF, he's just "playing with his food" before he does.
My dude, you have the gun, you want to kill BF, he's right there infront of you, why are you wasting your time doing this?? (Even if GF can just shoo him away with her demon powers anyway)
Oh wait, he just does that anyway. He said "imma spare you if I jam to the beat". Nah, that was all one big lie.
Screw you too.
And then there's the memey screenshot that's been flodding Twitter recently:
No notes, 10 outta 10 /j
And then Pico loses again and GF sends him to the Shadow Realm. GGs, my boi, GGs.
That's about the only big peeve I have with the mod right now, the rest of it is fine... mostly. I mean, the dialogue is mostly some really sus stuff, a ton of innuendos, and then the Mommy Mearest week. That entire week was, uh... a little TOO much for me.
(rip the monetization of the let's play youtubers who uploaded videos when Week 4 HD came out lol).
And I like the new remixes of the songs for the most part. And as far as 2021 mods go, it didn't age THAT badly. I've been an FNF fan (ugh cringe) since Week 5 came out, I've seen WAY worse mods than HD.
But yeah... fuck Pico HD, don't like that guy. They did my fav character dirty... and that is the post. Follow for more ramblings/opinions of random stuff I find online, and hope y'all were as freaked out by this portrait as I was when I first saw it, peace-

the more I rewatch btvs s4 the more I feel the biggest issue is that the writers were deeply uninterested in Riley as a person

For GG, it rotates, but right now it's Serena! In general, Lemon Breeland, Petra Solano, also...not to be a Gleek but gonna have to add Quinn Fabray to this growing list rip. (I very clearly have a type)
💖 What made you start writing?
I'll keep this just to fic writing...hot take but the pandemic was tough. And not to get too personal on here, but these last few years STILL would've been the hardest years of my life even if the pandemic never happened because of some shit that went down. And I had had massive writers' block for about six months, hadn't written a single word. And then I rewatched Hart of Dixie for the fourth time and I just...was hit by a strong urge to write George/AB fanfic. Mostly cause it didn't exist, and as I said, write what YOU want to read. So I did and then it just...kickstarted something in me. I had been stalking dair blogs for about a year by then, had been reading dair fic for years and years before that (yes, before I had actually watched GG start to finish lol), but it all just came together in late 2020/early 2021 and yeah...here we are.
🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?
I guess I'm still figuring that out myself, but I would say the response to it. Like I've learned that it's only certain fandoms/pairings that really get the big hits, and I'm not gonna lie, that can be pretty dispiriting. But I try not to focus on hits, try to focus on, well okay, what's the ratio of kudos to hits? What did the comments say? Even though this didn't get a ton of views, did the people who still read it enjoy it? And that's kind of how I'm trying to measure. It's hard though.
I have been doing my own gg rewatch. Now in final episode of season 4 and wondering how I missed how the scene of Nick & Rio in the car really shows what a really horribly evil, duplicitous shit Nick is. Like we already knew he was bad but he really let's it all hang out there, unfiltered.
I think on earlier watching a I was focused on what was going to happen when Rio missed the meeting.
