Books of 2024: ADHD FOR SMART ASS WOMEN: HOW TO FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR NEURODIVERGENT BRAIN by Tracy Otsuka.
I saw this on a new release promotional email and thought "well shit, that looks like my life, I should Investigate That™," only to realize it was a brand new hardback and I didn't want to pay $29 for 200 pages of information. Since I found out about it on release day, my next thought was, "Oh, I can check and see if my library has any copies!! We love supporting our libraries in this house!!"
Reader: They did Not.
But! I did find the "request a book" option on their website, and I entered this book, and I got a robocall within a week saying my hold was ready to be picked up! Y'all!! The library literally ordered this book for me (it was stamped into circulation one (1) day before they called me!), and now I have it to read! I love libraries!!
(book pic featuring the super cute coaster set @asexualbookbird made me that I love with my entire heart!!)

John Price Headcannons
a/n; before we begin, your honor I love him. He's sorta above Ghost and König for me atm so anyway
pairings; Cap. John Price x AfroLatina! Reader
warnings; a bit of profanity used. it's also assumed that reader is at least 5 years younger than the captain o7
John is the greatest man in the world, you will forever feel loved!
Anything you want you got
He likes PDA (not too much) He wants to make sure people know your his
He loves cuddles and cheesy movies with microwave popcorn and a bottle of wine (crying just thinking about it fr)
BEARD SCRATCHES
He loves it when you cook for him (might have a bit of a housewife kink) but he'll never force it on you
When you go back to Latin America you bring him cigars and he saves them for good days cause they're the best
You always joke about hating his hats but y'all both know you love them
If you've already met Gaz, simply expect this every time you see him; "Mum!! The Price family is finally back together."
"Shut up Gaz"
When he first met your mom, he passed the test without instruction: "You wan't more rice?"
"Oh, yes please." (You also refused to let him eat anything for that whole day so it was genuine)
If you're a civilian, he usually wears his wedding band on a chain and puts it back on when he gets home. If you're both on the force, you have matching chains.
Speaking of being home. Silent cuddles and kisses. Moments together all the time because he knows his time may be limited.
If you're WAY younger than him, like Gaz age, you're totally immersed in social media: "I really wish British people existed."
"My love...."
"Would you still love me if I was a worm?" "Pardon?"
And don't get me started on the world cup (cause no one likes the British)
"IT'S CALLED SOCCER BITCH" "Sure"
"Put beans on that toast and I'm burning all those ugly ass hats." "I love you more"
“Sorry about the queen.” “You don’t mean that.” “I don’t.”
Mocking his accent
After Ghost team, you stole his mask. You snuck up on him once and he almost had a heart attack. "Fucking hell, love!"
All in all, he loves you more than himself and would probably give his life for you.
Thanks for reading <3
I'll probably do more cause love him
König headcannons next

"I became what they did to me." "What are you running from?" "Just stay awake with me all night." "Shouldn't have let me in, you've just made a grave mistake." "I guess they made me a monster too."

The reason I'm all:
Is...
IT'S GOD'S TIME NOW!!
So...
1. It's time I 🤐 it. It's time I stop sharing my ideas
(I've got many more. So have fun with the few you stole. I have and will create many more. I'm ONE OF ONE; I'm the ONLY ONE.)
2. Okay I see what you're doing. I'm going to 🤐 and watch y'all do y'all. I could care LESS. Cause I ain't running down SHIT.
(You see that little baby I posted, didn't dream of being Queen of countries. She dreamed of sharing love and care and having tonns of babies. I already have 4, I plan to adopt. I already share love and care to who I want to. So that little baby I post on the depression topic is getting what she want. And she will FIGHT for them. NOPE she will NOT fight to be Queen for ungrateful human beings. And the most ungrateful ones I know are the Jamaicans. "Suh cu yah. Galang. Mi nuh bizniz" AKA "So, do you. Bitch")
3. I'm 🤐ing because I don't care how I look. Why? Because people ahead of their time get called names and LOOK crazy. I have NO ISSUE with that.
(In 2019 when I worked at a bookstore I would help people. There were times people didn't know something and the book wasn't in stock to confirm the name or something. Then I'd say, just GOOGLE IT. Do you know how many LAUGH AT ME? Acting like I'm crazy. Then when I did it they're surprised. I looked crazy to the unknowledgeable. But NOW everyone's googling everything. Things like the google business set up which I was trying to implement then are now being done. These weren't even that new. Canada been doing it for YEARS. NOW, they catching up. So I ain't backtracking nor changing my tune. Y'all will have to CATCH UP, Cause I AIN'T SLOWING DOWN! #PERIODT)
4. I'll 🤐🤐🤐 because this is NOT MY TIME. THIS IS GOD'S TIME. My time is over. My time was obedience. My time was to DECLARE, CLAIM AND STAND MY GROUND. When the gates and the walls go up. IT'S GOD'S TURN!
(Read Joshua 6 in the Bible. You'll see how what they doing is simply very Devil inspired, as in unoriginal. God said the land of Jericho was Israel's from long ago. They see the Israelites come and heard. Then they lock up the gates thinking it would change anything...then GOD!!! As I said it's ALL GOD. So, act like Jericho and lock up the gates, and add re-enforcements to the wall figuratively as if that can stop GOD and watch it CRUMBLE at my simple stupid and seemingly crazy obedience that's similar to walking around the walls of Jericho whatever amount of times. God is the same then, now and forever more)
What's funny is, I spoke on Jericho already. And it's like God to prepare me for another Jericho level kind of faith. It was with Samantha and now the Government of Jamaica. I tweeted on it:

Hey, guys I hope everyone's day is going spectacular! As you all know, today is Chris Evans 40th birthday!! I wanted to do something special for such a special day. Thus, I have compiled a list of my absolute favorite stories written for Chris Evans's characters.
Be advised, however, some of these are dubious consent, non-con, daddy kink, spitting, squirting, oral m/f receiving, creampie, anal, and all other manner of kinks I did not realize I enjoyed until joining the site.
It took me a very long time to compile this list and I may have to do some for Sebastian Stan later since some people want to cancel him. But we're not going to talk about that right now.
Here is a list of some of my absolute favorite Chris Evans stories in no particular order.
Golden Boy (Dark!Steve Rogers) - @angrythingstarlight
What sets this one apart from the rest of her stories, is that there's a deep resentment from Steve to Bucky in the very beginning of their friendship.
What The King Has (Soft!Dark Steve Rogers) - @sincerelythedarkside
I just read this one this morning. This was sooo good guys!
Hidden Solace (Andy Barber) - @ozarkthedog
This was difficult. I kept thinking I'd pick Reparations or Cock Worship, but Andy being a little touch starved did it for me.
Burning Desire (Andy, Steve & Ransom as Triplets) - @sinner-as-saint
She really gives you the best of 3 worlds here!
Ticking Clock (Dark!Andy Barber) - @syntheticavenger
Another tough choice. Synth comes straight for your heart and vagina, and you'll love her for it!
Stealth (Steve Rogers) - @afriendlyblackhottie
I may have bitten off more than I can chew, guys! It's so hard picking just one because there's nothing she's written that I can say is not one of my favorites. I'm telling you, get some wine or your favorite drink (alcoholic or not), put your feet up, and enjoy this lovely lady's artistry!
Back Rooms (punk!Me from Playing It Cool) - @fineanddandy
Not only did she use the fabulous @nix-akimbo edit for this one, but she makes you question if loyalty to a friend is worth walking away from a guy that genuinely wants you.
A Different Kind of Love (Alpha!Andy & Beta!Jake) - @river-soul
Can you imagine having both Jake and Andy in an A/B/O world? Read this story and you won't have to imagine!
Wear Me Down (Ari Levinson) - @navybrat817
Her fight is commendable, but you can't fight fate!
The Valentine's Cock Up (Steve Rogers) - @drabblewithfrannybarnes
God, this makes me laugh just thinking about it!
Original Sin (Dark!Bryce Langley) - @stargazingfangirl18
This had to be my hardest pick yet. What can I say about this ridiculously talented author? She made me lust over Robert Pronge which I promise was not an easy feat. I went kicking and screaming, but I'm here. Honorable Mention to her latest series Necessary Arrangements & Devil's Advocate.
Good Little Wife (Soft!Dark!Mob!Andy Barber) - @donutloverxo
All of her stories have a sort of soft and gentle reader that the men trip over themselves to take care of. I love it!
Goodbye Again (Endgame!Steve Rogers & Avengers!Steve Rogers) - @sweetlyscared
I can go on all day about how much I love this story! The emotions, the love, the loss, gah!!! I'll never not reblog this story.
Snowed In (Ransom Drysdale) - @the-iceni-bitch
Another author who has me lusting over Robert Pronge! I love her Ransom stories, beginning with Snowed In, because while he's still an ass, his girl gives it back just as easily.
Renewing Vows (Dark!Steve Rogers) - @gotnofucks
Dibs is one of my favorite authors. She's one of the few authors on this site that when you read her stories, especially the dark ones, you feel the obsession and single-minded desire to possess you no matter the circumstances. I love how she incorporates her culture in some of her stories as well, particularly the Happily Ever After series. You know it's wrong, but seeing the Avengers in their desi apparel still makes me go, "aww! They really want to make her feel welcomed!" P.S. I really, really came close to choosing Murder at the Whorehouse!
Dark Assassin (Dark!Silverfox!Steve Rogers) - @kleohoneyao3
It took me forever to find this story again. I've always been attracted to older men, but Silverfox!Steve is the goat! My second favorite is Of the Earth.
Little Red series (Steve/Curtis/Andy/Ransom/Johnny) - @autumnrose40
This proud Omega always gives you the best C. Evans characters stories. And she's not afraid to push boundaries with different species(werewolves, mermen, octogods, etc). I'm always so happy to see she's posted something.
Creamsicle (Robert Pronge & Dark!Andy Barber) - @sapphirescrolls
I don't think I need to list Robert as dark, do I??? While she has a cornucopia of dark writings, this is my favorite!
I Have Questions (Steve Rogers) - @royallyprincesslilly
Accidentally dirty-talking Steve Rogers? Hell yeah!
Unhappily Married (Dark!Steve Rogers) - @cherienymphe
This is a wonderfully talented dark writer. I almost chose Twice Bitten several times because (1) she writes vampires the way they're meant to be written, and (2) Steve is so unapologetically hot and cold with the reader it makes me weep. But I do love kids (set in fiction only) and poor Nathan needs a real mother!
Hirsute (Werewolf!Andy Barber) - @avintagekiss24
Whew! This was tough. I literally love all her stories, particularly Blue Ocean Floor and her latest, 'with the weight of the world at the tips of my fingers.' There's a sleek elegance to her writing that is unmatched.
Let Me Teach You (Jake Jensen) - @vannybarber
Jake Jensen does not get enough love. Luckily, he's starting to come up. This writer gives him all the love and appreciation he deserves with this story.
Tell Me You Love Me (Steve Rogers) - @lotusss-flowerbomb
We all have pasts, but if you're going to let your co-workers get drunk around your girl, give her a heads up that you may or may not have hooked up with the gorgeous red-haired spy. Loved this so much!!
Mr. and Mrs. Ari Levinson Invite You to...the Worst Wedding. Ever. (Mob!Ari Levinson) - @caffiend-queen
I've never seen Ari written like this. He's wild and crazy and utterly addicted to his new little wife.
I loved everything about this wedding, especially the author letting us see the different Jewish wedding traditions. If you didn't love Ari before this story, you will after this story!
This was fun you guys! And it gives me a point of reference in case I once again lose some of the stories listed here.
As an added bonus, here are some of my favorite @nix-akimbo edits:

I've decided that I need to know all my favorite sagau writers' faves! I wanna hear about you and them and how you'd interact with them. Yes, this is mandatory, I don't make the rules i just blindly enforce them.
I'll start, (Warning, thirst ahead)
Thoma
Literally this man owns my entire heart (and wallet please someone help me). He's so good? So pure and precious???? I deadass felt like I was having a heart attack doing his hangout, people literally had to beg me to stop (I didn't, I just laid down after, crying my heart out). I love him so much. man's my screen saver rn)
Tumblr media
I haven't done character art screensavers since I was like twelve, probably longer. I've been that boring bitch bc anxiety but this man THIS MAN
absolute malewife, I wanna marry him. If I'm in sagau I'm kicking down the door to the Yashiro Commission and just "you wanna make me happy? gimme Thoma" like if they're not gonna appreciate him then I will. just gonna grab him and "we're married now"
And his FUCKING HANGOUT (i will never be over this) HE'S SO PERFECT??? THE ANIMALS??? THE MALEWIFE-ING????? THE FUCKING DESTRUCTION OF THAT BITCH?????? we're fucking married that's it
I love him?????? Honestly like Thoma pls take care of me I'm a wreck
Ningguang
THE QUEEN. omfg I love her, ship her and Lumine so hard. She's just so elegant and amazing and so genuinely good??? I just wanna be her sugar baby friend. Like her teapot convo where she tells you that she wants YOU to help her with decision making and YOU to rip up the papers and throw out the next "snowstorm"???
Honestly, like, I think it was myuni who posted about it recently but I wanna go shopping with her in Liyue and just dressup and shit and it'd be so fun??? Girl needs to let loose and I'm willing to offer myself up for the job. Wanna give her genuine connection and shit kjsdkhgdsgds
Klee
Do I even need to SAY ANYTHING??? She's so precious??? She was my first 5* I think, or at least my first event character. I joined Genshin during the summer banner after putting it off a while (I didn't know it was a gacha I'm so sorry Zhongli, Venti and Xiao pls come home at least Ganyu and Albedo will be getting their reruns)
I wanna go fish blasting with her and I want her to teach me how to make bombs and show me her treasures and I wanna hold Dodoco and be her best friend like hgesjdhgdjshgjdsghnnbfdjg
No thoughts only sibling bonding with Klee
Some honorable mentions:
Keqing, if Klee wasn't my first 5* it was Keqing. I love her so much??? Like Ningguang, I wanna hang out with her and make sure she's taking her breaks. Same with Ganyu, the QUEEN deserves a NAP
Kazuha stole my fucking wallet (stupid ADHD) and so I have him at c2 and I will forever hold resentment for that but I still love him so much
Hu Tao!!! I've loved her from the first sight. Her view of death is so like nice?? Not seeing it as something bad but as another part of life. I've always believed that funerals should be a celebration of the person, not pure mourning (I mean, mourning lasts a long time, why not devote some time to celebrating the person instead?) anyway I just love her I'm so glad I just got her (already got her at like 58% crit rate and over 150% crit damage & like she's only level 70?? her artifacts rolled so good as well????)
Ei!! My first archon character. Inazuma is too fucking sad all the quests are ripping out my heart and I know her story is about to so I've been procrastinating reading it. I wanna go out into town with her and drink some fucking dango milk and also tease her with Yae
Yoimiya is a good girl. That is all.
Xingqiu and Xinyan have gotten a lot of hate in my convos so I wanna send them some love. Like, they're just kinda beaten out by a lot of other characters but they're so good themselves???
I am a simple enby, i have simple tastes. Those tastes are Arataki Itto. Thank you
I wanna step on and bully Zhongli??? and Xiao I just wanna make a mess of them
Razor, Bennett and Fischl, you all know what I'm going to say. There good children, I love them, I'd die for them, they deserve better. Gonna give them all hugs and love and gdi they deserve it. Gonna introduce them to Xiangling as well and get them some good fucking food.
Albedo and Kaeya. Do I need to say more? Also Diluc, thank you.
Now to call out @raidengaile and @nicebonescomrade to make sure someone does this (all the pressure /j) bc they're on my mind rn do the thing

In actually remembering what i asked was not a complete ask for that head Canon challenge, i ask your humble forgiveness, and I'll try again lol. Romy and queen or reading, I'm torn....
Nothing to forgive! If you ask anything related to my ships, I will answer! In fact, I can yak for hours.
Anyway when I first read this, I thought you said ‘Romy, queen of reading’, so I’m going with that. So it’s probably common and accepted fanon that Rogue reads trash-ass romance novels. And not just those shitty Harlequin books we all actually adore, but more specifically, she loves Sandra Hill. Because while yes, it’s bodice ripper romance, it’s also bawdy and ridiculous and hilariously silly, which ticks all boxes for Rogue—smutty romance and frivolous humor. Behold:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Can you see why she went for this shit?? Lmao. How could she not?? But listen, it gets better, here is a sampling on Sandra Hill’s legendary prose, from Rough and Ready:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mean! Of course she reads this shit, sniggering at the style and blushing at the content. And there’s a Cajun series, featuring Remy LeDeaux and family, complete with a tante Lulu. Accidental?? I should say not.
But also, I HC that Rogue has ass tons of romance books, piled up in corners of her room, the closet, in random boxes, in haphazard stacking in bookcases and her windowsill. She has other genres too, bitch is a queen book-eater, she’s well rounded okay, but most of it is romance, like 97% of it. And naturally. At some point. Gambit helps himself to the stash, much to her colossal embarrassment. Like, the stupid book falls out of her closet on him or something, and it’s literally Tall, Dark, and Cajun, and a ridiculous sexy part is dog eared many times over, so of course he looks. And she dies approximately 5000 deaths on the spot. Lmao.
A funny, Bridgertonesque twist? (Cuz yes, I read those books years ago, I own them all, and I’m feasting on every season that comes out) She wrote those books. She’s Sandra Hill. And people never once seriously suspects she’s the writer, cuz she’s a backwards-ass river rat that no can read hur hur hur, right?? And a virgin forever, so she must be sexless too, right?? But an X-Man is suspected, and rumors abound, and she just secretly sniggers in her own success and hobby.
I think about shit like this entirely too much, y’all ❤️

Everything I hate about every lovestruck series because voltage needs to get their shit together <3
Quick disclaimer cause some of y'all seem very keen on attacking people rn: My words are not the law of the land and you do not have to agree with anything I say here. This is just me ranting. I'm open to having a civil discussion about any of these opinions in my inbox, dms, or comments, but rude anons will be ignored.
TL;DR: Lovestruck is shit, go read Villainous Nights and Speakeasy Tonight and stop romanticizing toxic behaviors please.
Gangsters In Love
Chance Valentine
People who still believe Chance Valentine and MC's relationship was healthy (I'm also genuinely concerned for you please seek help because honey that is a very toxic relationship)
The fact that Chance Valentine was brought back when Irving, Yoyo, and Ash are right there
The fact that Aurora's original route was abandoned for so long (I know they said they're finishing it in 2022 but it should not have taken this long)
The fact that Irving only got 3 seasons (and fucking Chance Valentine got 9)
The original MC dressing like a toddler (I'm all for badass ultra fems but come on she looks like a child)
The "streetsmart" MC immediately trusting the gang and overall not being very street smart
Seymour not being in the new routes (I know he's the old MC's dog and it wouldn't make sense but I miss him and his interactions with the group and especially Ash were so cute)
Love & Legends
I'm sorry, but as cool as the concept of the Witch Queen was, it was dragged out for way too long in almost every route
Except for Alain's which deserved more seasons
Just like how he deserved to live in other routes other than his own
And how we should've gotten more interactions between him and Helena when they were on the same side in his route
Basically Alain just deserved better
Also will forever be bitter than we didn't get an Ishara route
Havenfall Is For Lovers
The number of gorgeous women who could've been lis but weren't is a CRIME
Also what was Mothman's design?
Like I love Mothman but when you think of the cool cryptic that is NOT it
Look at JD's cool design and how it fits with them being the Jersey Devil, (or Dracula, his design was in some way what you'd imagine him to look like) Mothman deserved something like that
Also kind of wish Grace would have a route where she wasn't playing some sort of damsel in distress role because that got kinda old after a while (Edit: I’ve been looking at the replies and y’all have pointed out that she doesn’t get kidnapped in Antonio’s route and is able to become an agent in Mac’s route and a hunter in Vanessa’s. Thank you for correcting me.)
Starship Promise
Despite having plenty of side characters who many would love to romance, you decide to recycle old lis
But I'll give a pass for Nova so long as they don't fuck up her ending again (because literally what the fuck?)
Also Nav deserved better
Sweet Enchantments
Runa Amberthorne literally forced a woman into a relationship against her will, taking away her right to consent to it, and yet there are still people sympathizing with her because "aw she feels bad" and "she didn't sleep with her" like BITCH THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT OKAY WHAT MADE LOVESTRUCK THINK THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA???
Roman deserved better
Also rip Milo I thought he was kinda boring but he didn't deserve to get dropped like that
Queen of Thieves
Jett and Remy only getting 4 seasons
Lovestruck not giving us a poly route with Jett and Remy
Lovestruck not giving us a poly route with Zoe and Vivienne
Lovestruck not giving us a route with Jace
The fact that if Lovestruck decided to reboot this series the recycled routes would be Nikolai and Vivienne instead of Jett and Zoe
Sin With Me
People simping for Vinca despite her being emotionally abusive to her twin sister and still begging for her route (I can semi sympathize with the people who just want routes for all seven sins but like that doesn't mean it should happen Vinca is still a piece of shit)
Ripley still not having a route despite being the most attractive woman on the entire app
Reigning Passions
Galen only getting 4 seasons (while Xenia is going on 10)
The fact that there isn't a Piama X Ruelle short
Lovestruck STILL NOT FUCKING ANNOUNCING THE NEW LI
Wicked Lawless Love
Once again, plenty of gorgeous women being abandoned as potential lis
Also I know I'm not the only one who found the MC to be annoying
And like the way she was so willing to trust this random ass stranger in Cecelia's route and has the audacity to be surprised when she's evil
Tales Of The Wild
WHAT THE FUCK IS THE WRITING?
LIKE IT IS INSULTING
Also the cgs?
No <3
Lovestruck should've just stopped at the Wild Vixens short
Nobody asked for this to be a full series, and nobody wanted it
I'm not sad to see it go
Ever After Academy
Only 4 seasons per route (and I'm not just saying that cause I love the series, EAA's story has so much potential)
I feel like the memory spell is sort of rushed in the new routes (especially Lavinia's)
Or maybe that's just cause Lovestruck was figuring out shit as they went along when the og 3 were being written
I hate how they made Abel so unlikable in his route
Sure, he was kind of rude when we first met him in Lucas's route, but when his own route premiered he was such a dick (which sucks cause I really liked his character and I was excited when his route was announced)
Also, are we ever actually getting a full route for Jo X Darla? It's been a while (knowing Lovestruck probably not)
Also Mouse and Jackie deserve routes (but it's Lovestruck so I wouldn't hold my breath)
Immortal Heart Society
Most negative opinions I have about the series can be found here, but regardless:
Alanna Mckenna.
The pacing felt super off in Cash and Alanna's routes (it got better when Emilio's route came out, as most things in the series did)
The way Cash's route got dropped right as his route was actually becoming pretty good
Rafe's route being with MMC (while I am upset that this means MMC is likely only getting 1 li, my main issue is that they showed Rafe having more chemistry with MMC which felt kind of like Lovestruck was queerbaiting us)
Kiran not having a route yet
Also some of the cgs are ugly ngl
Plus the historical inaccuracies bother me cause like you can't just say "homophobia? never knew her" and expect everyone to go along with it for the sake of your story (take it from a better series of yours that's able to incorporate these issues into the story to make it both realistic and heartwrenching)
My Siren Crush
This is an issue across the board but I tend to notice it more in this series so I'm putting it here: SPELLING CHECKS PEOPLE. SPELLING. CHECKS. (they say as they continue writing a post full of poor grammar)
MC's magic thing seems lowkey unnecessary but I'm willing to see how Lovestruck handles it
I'm sorry but Arianna is kind of boring
Dawn route when?
Edge Case Love's Pursuit
Thought it was dumb that they just recycled the one series from their new app that they never promoted but like I guess I get it?
This shouldn't need to be said but like let's ✨not✨ promote romancing a child
Overall not much of an opinion on it yet but that may change as it continues so stay tuned cause I might make a part 2 for this series
But seriously Lovestruck, please reconsider making Eko a love interest. Just don't. She's 14. Please.
Villainous Nights
Most of these routes deserved better
Zeke deserves his own route
Lovestruck if you're gonna reboot another series, I highly suggest this one
Astoria Fate's Kiss/Lost Kisses
Once again, most of these routes deserved better
Especially Astraeus because he was one of the best and he got did so dirty
Once again, plenty of wasted route potential (*cough cough* Persephone *cough cough*)
Castaway! Love's Adventure
Why the fuck is this series still listed as contemporary?
You know, the series with magical island spirits?
That one?
Anyway, TK and Joaquin are dicks
And the MC is annoying as fuck
But she's also stunning and I wish we saw her sprite more
To Love And Protect
Everything but the cat.
Speakeasy Tonight
The most underrated series on the app
Justice for Julius that man deserved more than 1 season
And basically all of them did
We need more ST content
If you haven't checked out this series yet I highly recommend you do it deserves more love

Conversation
RP meme from Scream Queens Ep 10 "Thanksgiving"
Listen. I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but I don't think I can bone you right now.
My wanger is way stressed out.
I've killed for our love.
I just gave her a little push.
You and I can pick up right where we left off.
You can bring me home for Thanksgiving and introduce me to my future in-laws.
What did you do with the body?
I put it in the meat locker. It's where we've been putting all the dead bodies.
I need to see the body.
Look, we can have a three-way with the body.
I'll show you the body, but not so you can have sex with it.
I'll show it to you so that you and I will share a dangerous secret that will strengthen our relationship and bring us closer together.
I don't understand how this keeps happening!
Is this meat locker, like, a wormhole to an alternate universe or something?
She'll probably stop at nothing until she gets her revenge by murdering you.
No one wants to spend a room service Thanksgiving alone.
Are you going to talk at all?
You shouldn't be mad at me.
We're the sane ones.
Now, I know you've got other plans today, and for alibi's sake we need to protect your cover, but I am not letting you leave on an empty stomach.
Is that what quail is? I thought they were bigger.
You know what I was picturing? Pheasant.
Time to slice off those breasts.
I feel like this holiday is all about family, and, well, as you know, I gave up on my real family a long time ago.
I mean, at this point, the closest thing I have to family is. . . you.
I understand that Thanksgiving is supposed to be about family and being together and thanking God that we were born rich in America and not in Uganda or Venezuela or any of those other African countries.
You're late. The game's just about to start.
What do you think would happen if those instructions were incorrect?
This family's fortune is built on being right on time.
There's nothing better than sitting together as a family, watching the game. Laughing, smiling, just enjoying the warmth of each other's company. That's what it's all about today. Togetherness.
I hate defrosted food.
Why is it called Italian Style Chicken Cacciatore? All chicken cacciatore is Italian style.
This is not what Thanksgiving is supposed to be.
A bunch of my sort-of friends have been killed and no one has asked me about it.
Oh. And I'm starting a new family tradition. It involves me never coming to any family occasions ever again.
Would you stop with the screaming?
It's more like a stay of execution until no one is looking.
I've never cooked before, but that should be fine, since I usually just pretend to eat.
Well, I can cook and eat for the both of us.
So we've decided to have an orphans Thanksgiving all together.
I mean, I guess you could come over here if you wanted.
And this year I'm so thankful for the lax indecency laws in Eastern Europe that inundate our Internet with millions of hours of hard-core porn.
You know, ever since I was a little boy, I knew what God wanted me to do and that was make money off the backs of creative people.
I am so thankful that he, for whatever reason, has not murdered me yet.
You have such a vast future ahead of you.
You'll meet so many new and different women. So many wonderful women to go out with and break up with and move on from.
You should be thankful that this table is too long for me to reach across and strangle you, bitch!
What are you doing here? How are you alive?
When I woke up and regained consciousness, I felt better than ever.
The only thing you're carrying is water weight, you bloated little tramp.
I have a little game to play that's gonna make the time fly right by.
No, I've never killed anyone as far as I know.
Okay, there is no evidence at all that mass murder is genetic.
I would say that is more than a little suspicious.
I have bathroom shame issues. I always wait until everyone is asleep and then I sneak down to poop in the little powder room downstairs.
I mean, don't we all agree that those babies are the killers?
That seems like an unnecessarily complicated cover story.
I think we have plenty here to go to the police.
What, are you drunk?
You know, the one time I call you for a little advice, you're hammered.
I suppose we should discuss the matter of payment.
I'm asking you to name your price.
Are you propositioning me?
No, I'm asking how much money it'll take to make you go away.
My family is super-gross rich.
That outfit screams desperation.
I am, however, willing to write you a check for $50,000 if you will leave now and never come back.
It's a lot of money for a family like yours.
What is the best part about Thanksgiving?
Tastes like Henry VIII just barfed in my mouth.
Well, I don't want to sound like a dick here, but have you ever considered maybe you should leave?
I brought some of my famous eight-meat stuffing. It's beef, venison, alligator, buffalo, rabbit, goat, rattlesnake and Spam. I cut all of the meats super thin, so that you're guaranteed every meat in every bite.
I thought you said you were leaving forever or something like that?
Have you ever even cracked open a book?
You did say just the other day that the only way to live is to play the long game.
I really hope you can come up with something better than that.
I can prove that you're the only person in this room we know for a fact is a murderer.
I saw you in the coffee shop the other day, reading one of your old Playgirl magazines.
Okay, look, there's just some stuff that doesn't add up.
Look, I've gone through all the suspects in my mind, and I can explain away all my suspicions for everyone except you.
Can we just talk this out, so you can help me see that I'm wrong?
I mean, it would fit in with your whole hard worker, let's find out the truth, never take no for an answer, awful personality.
Anything to redeem your beloved dead mother.
I can't rest when the killer's still out there, so I stayed behind to do some more research.
You're skinny and pretty, so that's a plus, but it's highly competitive, so you'd better be rich, too.
You know how at the beginning of the year, I was always secretly following you so I could just keep an eye on you, make sure you were safe?
I heard you talking to someone, but I couldn't hear what it was about.
Thank you for letting me talk about this, talk this out, and hear your side of the story.
Um, homely, ugly.
Gold digger! Not welcome.
No, no, too chunky to wear that outfit.
I'm fairly certain this board game's been tampered with.
And while my motivations were airtight and my conscience clear, still, I'm sorry.
I mean, no one deserves to be spoken to like that, particularly not by what is, without a doubt, the most awful family in America.
I've honestly seen more tasteful decor at a Sizzler.
And you, sir, give the kind, hard-working, deeply moral people who work in such a wonderful industry as Hollywood a bad name.
I am walking out that door and never speaking to you again.
How could such a stud evolve from a boy who was so clearly a douche?
Oh, please, look, I-I was so bombed at that party. I mean, I remember I puked while I was making out with some girl, but there is no way that I could've found my way back down there 20 minutes later, let alone 20 years.
This is really embarrassing, um, but I started the paleo diet, because I'm back on the dating scene now, and I-I wanted to lose some weight.
I never saw a body down there.
I-I was a bit of a man slut back in the day, and it was the '90s, so nobody wore condoms.
I'm obligated to take it to the police.
What are you gonna do with the money?
didn't take the money, idiot.
Okay, first of all, I experienced extreme emotional trauma this evening, and second, I'm the one delegating tasks, thank you very much.
I couldn't find any matches.
I was sharpening this knife.
You haven't eaten yet, have you? I knew it!
You've come back. You've chosen me over your awful family.
First of all, my family is awesome. How dare you?
So, without further ado, dinner is served.

Honestly, your writing reminds me a lot of the buffyverse. Just the perfect balance of humor and sadness and romance and heart that just feels like a vivid window into the world you've created.
God the Body...the best forty minutes of television I may never watch again. I've rewatched Willow and Tara's kiss (because I'll adore them forever), but just...the weight of it. It took me a full month to work up the nerve to watch the episode, to be ready to cry that much.
What you said about not wanting people to suffer, because of your work...It's never once felt like that for me. And I've cried a LOT while reading your work. I'll try to explain it the best I can
Grief can be so isolating, and disorienting. Your world goes topsey-turvey, supports you took for granted go flying into the abyss and suddenly it's a minefield of those glass shards. And no one's grief is identical. No two circumstances are the same. It's not possible for anyone else to know exactly how you feel, because no two hearts break alike.
Sometimes, it's because people just don't understand. Sometime's it's because they no longer want to. But some days, that feeling of aloneness can be crushing.
Then one night, I stumbled upon Let These Shadows Fall Away Like Dust. That one hit me way harder than I was ever expecting. The question of how to grieve the living, the dilemma on when forgiveness is deserved...Alex's anger, his devestation, the rawness of it all....That's my broken glass. Those are concepts I've been struggling for over a year. I'm still picking up pieces every day.
I sobbed, because it was such a relief. To see the feelings that had been scrambled up in my mind just reflected there, on my screen. The reminder I had desperately needed, that I was not alone. That even though my circumstances were different, I was not the only one trying to unravel those messy emotions.
Then again, I also read your deathfic for fun, so maybe I'm not the best judge of this. I tend to like angst. I tend to get a lot of "WHY WOULD YOU MAKE IT THAT SAD" in group chats :D
Please don't feel any pressure to respond to me quickly or anything. I never mind the wait. I'm so sorry for the rough times. Wishing that you and your family gets whatever you need to help ease your storm. Sending love and support as well.
(sorry for all the metaphors. I'm super sleepy and apparently, I resort to purple prose when tired lol)
I know exactly what you mean about Emily. I understand why people don't like her, but I just love to see her written as such a grey character. It's just so much more powerful when the love is so clearly there.
I mean, that's what a tragedy is, really. Love cut short. Grieving a future that could have been everything, if fate had not been cruel. I don't know if you know musical theater, but I like to think about the Barber and His Wife, from Sweeney Todd: the whole tragedy of that show, is that they were happy all together, and then permanently broken. How their paths keep crossing, but they never connect to heal. Never lost, but never found.
And that's the tragedy of Luke and Emily: too stubborn and too late. You find that grey area, the messiness so well, and just bring it all out so wonderfully. You do the same with Bobby/Trevor, ESPECIALLY in the horror and the wild. God, that absolutely devestated me. I'm not a big fan of horror in general, and I haven't explored the genre that much but...if all horror is like yours then DAMN, I might just have to become a fan.
This got super long (lol) so I'll wrap it up now but! THE SIC FIC QUEENS TOGETHER???? When I tell you I lost it.... all too well Bobby and what you've lost reggie in the same story are killing me. I am hooked and incredibly hyped. Loved both updates so far, and cannot wait to see where the story goes!
Oh yeah and I forget: I have to ask, do you have a fan cast of the one, the only, the incredible Keith Richards? (and that goblin is so cute!!! I really want to pet the blood thirsty monster. So badly)
Love, your totally-not-undead-pen-pal, :D
-Vampire Anon
Know musicals? Vampire Anon my beloved, I am a musical theatre bitch. Take a look at my high school graduation cap! (Anastasia is my favorite musical... something about the themes of home, love, and family, the idea of always finding a place in the world even after enduring incredible hardship, that anything is survivable with faith and love in your heart... I'm also a Romanov history bitch, and Christy Altomare is such an incredible talent and human being.) Literally, talk to me about musicals anytime!
And yeah, I definitely see your metaphor... the tragedy of The Barber and his Wife was how close they came to each other throughout the whole show, existing within reach the entire time, after being separated for so long. But it wasn't the same; it never could be. Time and trauma had changed them both into something unrecognizeable, and when they came face-to-face, they could only hurt each other. At a certain point, the ghosts of your past are meant to stay ghosts. Sure, you might want them back more than anything --- but what would it mean? What would you truly be getting back?
Luke's "back", of course, and he comes home to visit his parents multiple times... but they're not the same people he left. They're older, greyer, changed by grief... while he's just the same. A snapshot forever frozen in time, a memory crystalized in amber. You can't hold memories in your hands. You can't pull them close and refuse to let them go. Eventually, they'll slip away... and to Mitch and Emily, a memory is all their son is, now. That's what's so heartrending about the situation we see in the show, especially --- so much love still exists between all of them, but it has no place to go.
Okay, sorry, it's 3am here and I'm rambling too, haha --- mentioning musical theatre was a mistake.
I'm so glad my stories have been able to connect with you, especially 'shadows' --- that one resonated with a lot of people, more than I ever realized it would. It's not the most personal story to me... but definitely one that needed to be told, and the emotion in it... hits home for a lot of people. It means so much to me knowing that story, and Alex's internal struggle, has made people feel less alone.
I think I'm going to have a hard time looking back on that one, though. We were staying at my aunt's house for the weekend where I wrote most of it; I read a few excerpts to her, and she said she liked it. She was always interested in my writing... I kind of wish I'd gotten the chance to share more of it with her.
Like you said. Grief's a funny thing. Disorienting, relentless, and crushing.
Please just remember, though --- whatever you're dealing with, you're not alone. You don't have to cut yourself on those broken pieces... one day, you'll wake up, and realize you feel whole again. It will never feel the same, and the pain will always be there... but healing around it is what makes us stronger. You don't owe anyone your forgiveness; it's okay to grieve when you've lost something, regardless of whether death has taken them from you. Grief doesn't have to be earned, it simply has to be felt.
You'll be stronger for it, in the end. I'm sorry you've been hurting so much.
Anyways! Oh gosh! On to lighter, happier topics! Please tell me...
What are your favorite fics? (Like, my fics, obviously, which fics of mine do you just go gaga over? Please praise me or else my ego will shrivel like a worm on hot pavement.) No, okay, I'm kidding --- what are your top fics for this fandom? Like, what are the ones that really resonate with you, that you could read over and over? The JATP fandom has so many greats, but I'm always drawn back to Some Killer Queen You Are by pearlcaddy (buffyverse meets jatp!! iconic!!), Lantern's Light by thefairhero (literally the SOFTEST reggie), the sky's not empty tonight by firefall (just... devastating and beautiful in a dozen ways), and literally anything by foundfamilyvevo.
How long have you been in the JATP fandom? Who are your favorite characters? What's your favorite JATP song?
And finally, most importantly... what are your favorite musicals?
(also... since u asked... behold keith richards and tremble)

Haven’t met you yet | Mark
Tumblr media
Masterlist (1/4) | part2 - part3 - part4
Starring: MK x You
Tags: Mark Tuan, Fluff, Destiny, Waiting, Christmas, Bookworm, Nerd, Love, Fate
Total WC: 2631
Foreword: You promise yourself you’re going to wait for the perfect love even if it takes forever but you’re already barging on it’s doorstep without even realizing that love has met you already in the first place.
It’s all about timing and seeking reassurance in all the right places.
It’s a chance you never want to miss and an opportunity that you wouldn’t trade for anything.
Learn to take risks and learn to fall in love along the way. Cause true love is patient and it’ll come when you least expect it.
Have you been good all year round? You never know what Santa has in stored for you this Christmas.
[Feel free to listen on the playlist that I made for this one shot :)))]
"Eunhee, I should probably take a break from your endless blind date setups. Nothing is working out for me, seriously." You heaved a sigh, slouching on the couch as you gave your best friend an exasperated look the moment you entered her humble bookshop. She's too excited for your love life ever since she and her long-time university crush Jackson became an official couple on your birthday when you celebrated it on Jeju last year. It was a really cold New Year’s Eve when you chose to reserve this romantic restaurant by the beach as the venue for your special day. Eunhee doesn't have any idea about Jackson's plan when you booked a flight to Jeju Island for a week despite the busy season. Since you wanted to play the fairy godmother role for the both of them, you saved Jackson from worrying and suggested that he'd do it on your birthday instead. And just like that, they spent the New Year countdown melting into each other’s puddle while greeting you a happy birthday. The things you do for your friend, if that ain’t salty for your part (it is, for being the third wheel), automatically elected you as the sole Queen of singles club after Neun’s grand exit.
 Since their anniversary is just around the corner, they are planning to spend it once again on Jeju and Eunhee, for being the supportive sister from another mother that she is, will surely drag you with them at all costs since it has been your tradition to celebrate New Year’s Eve with your best friend. She is dying to set you up with someone so you won't be celebrating your birthday alone anymore.
 "I'm sorry, Y/N. I thought you and my friend Hae In will work out. What happened by the way? tell me about your date." She sat beside your spot after closing the shop and did the honor of pouring you a glass of your favorite merlot. This girl knows how to calm you down for sure. I mean she isn't your best friend if she have no idea that wine is your comfort drink. For whatever reason it is, you don't know why it helps to lessen your loneliness by drinking the night away. Maybe knocking you down into a deep slumber and finding yourself completely clueless the next day, alongside the horrible hangover can patch up the painful truth that you are still single up to this point of your life. In addition to the earthly and God-sent smell of neatly piled books crowding the interior of her paradise, Eunhee's bookshop is your go-to place at all times. You used to frequent this a lot during your childhood days where you first met her and together you shared the same passion and love for books and wine through all these years.
 "He's too overrated for my type. Like I don't know why we need to talk about all of his exes and why his relationship with them didn't work out when we can sit and be comfortable with just talking about our interests, 'us' the present and not his past. He's a perfectionist per se and I don't like it when a guy shows disinterest whenever I told them about myself as some nerdy bookish girl who craves for a netflix kind of night compared to his ideal dream girl-next-door whom you can freely bring to a club the minute next." You look down on the red liquid in your glass, appreciating its refined and classic smell that is clouding your nostrils. You're way too excited to go home so you can finally sink on your newly changed bed sheets and savor the enticing smell of fabric conditioner which you cannot live without. You glanced outside the window, observing the couples walking together under the falling snow, as if Valentines day has come all of a sudden in the middle of December. Red roses are a popular gift for the ladies as you've observed and you cannot help yourself from wondering if someone will ever give you flowers on Christmas, particularly pink roses, which you really admire. You always dreamt of tending a bed of pink roses only for yourself because the sight of it makes you really happy. It's just unfortunate that they aren't in full bloom during this season that's why you can only wait for February to come so you could save the trouble of finding a lame date and just buy yourself a bouquet for Valentines. You can give yourself flowers and still feel like in a relationship with all the fictional characters on your novels. No one is stopping you from dating them in your mind, you thought.
 “Ugh I can’t believe that guy. I thought he’s a good catch but actually a bummer for real. Don’t worry, I’ll choose better next time." She gave you a warm hug, patting your head as you lay your cheek on her shoulder. She released you and you gave her an 'I'm-okay-don't-worry' kind of smile. And you sat there for almost an hour talking about your other failed blind dates in the past week that all belongs in either Jackson or Eunhee's circle. You have no idea why none of them matched your personality. Either they are too wild or too boring for them to function as your potential boyfriend. No one could really captivate your specific taste in a guy. It's not that you are too picky and have a high standard when it comes to scouting a lover. You just have your own preferences when it comes to choosing someone whom you'll devote your precious time into. No relationship is perfect because everything is built out of flaws, misunderstandings, heartaches and drama but if you'll enter in a commitment at least choose someone who's worthy of that pain. You aren’t getting any younger and all you need right now is someone reliable, honest and trustworthy enough to not waste your feelings and emotion. You need a serious guy who will not take you for granted and who welcomes the idea of settling in the near future. At least someone with a nice job? Or a bearable attitude, outlook and philosophy in life? He doesn't need to be the most handsome or richest guy in the planet. After all, you always talk to God about giving you with someone who will really love all your imperfections and flawed nature. You always pray to the heavens above that maybe he'll cross the mountains and bring you the moon and the stars like they always did on the movies and in stories but you're fed with too much fantasy and began to think that maybe the guy for you was rather inexistent or an alien inhabiting a distant galaxy located in a million light years away.
 "A break is all I need after all. I will be fine tomorrow at Christmas eve. Don't worry about me having a date on our dinner. I'll bring some macarons as an antidote for all things bitter for you and Jackson's couple party." It's your best friend’s first Christmas with her boyfriend that's why they are throwing a mini gathering for their family and close friends. You had this feeling that you will be the only one attending the party without a date so might as well go straight to the kitchen and grab a bottle of whatever wine you can get and spend the evening dancing on tipsy toes and the floor would be very much pleased to accommodate your drunken needs. But you will not gonna end up wasted on a party especially Eunhee will not be there beside you to take you home since you do not want to rob Jackson of his time with her. Their happiness always matters before you and that's what makes you happy, to see your best friend happy with the man that he really deserves.
 "All right sweetcheeks. We'll not let you feel gloomy on Christmas eve. Good girls get a reward from Santa so you have nothing to worry about." She gave you a wink and clanked your glasses in unison as you both emptied the bottle of wine to your heart's content. You both agreed to watch a romantic holiday movie over a shared furry blanket and hear out your friend as she talked to you mostly of his boyfriend, as if you’ve read a book about the guide to 101 ways on how to fall for Jackson. Maybe the love bug bit too hard on your friend now that she really has the man of her dreams right on her fingertips, she can’t ask for anything else. Their love story is too underrated and you’re one of the living witnesses that a coin is never wasted on a wishing well. If you only joined Eunhee on her wishing spree every time you both pass by your University’s fountain of love, your coin bank would have gone empty by now. But you didn’t do it and saved all of your coins for yourself cause you really enjoy playing basketball in the arcades for fun. For all you can remember way back in college days, your friend is just one of the many timid girls who are cheering and admiring the ever-famous fencing athlete, business student and heartthrob, Jackson. You have classes together with him and that is how your job as a love guru began. You really deserve a raise because you did succeed on making them a couple. You could set up a dating agency and earn better than your current job for all you care. But amidst all the love advice that you gave to them, you’re the complete opposite of a matchmaker. Because love never finds your way despite making love work for the others. Love is sweet but a bitch most of the time.
 If love finally came to Eunhee and Jackson, hopefully yours would come in a whirlpool, sweeping you off of your feet and rendering all the other love stories made in the history irrelevant. You love spontaneity and you’re up for the extraordinary. In fact, you already made a dozen of playlists on spotify and counting, awaiting to be dedicated to him. You may have weird habits, like using ketchup as a dip for your honey glazed donuts, and still act straight and sit the whole day finishing a book with your favorite espresso at coffee shops. You love taking midnight trips to the art museum and you wonder if he can appreciate the abstract the way it makes your soul come alive. You love travelling back to time and studying history and it would be a bonus if he’ll join you on the 3% mint choco enthusiasts in the whole world. And your list goes on and on and it’ll take a lifetime to introduce yourself to someone but you want to meet him soon. You can’t wait for that time to annoy the hell out of him and if he still chooses to come back after your endless nagging, that’s the time when you’re not gonna let go of him anymore. You know for yourself, you’re looking for an almost perfect individual but you’re ready to tear up your never ending list of your ideal guy if someone could really surprise you and made you want to look at the world in a different dimension. After all, an ideal can never be achieved in real life. You cannot make someone ‘the one’ but you can only search for someone and make them ‘your one’. Things may not come out the way you want them to be but things will work out if he’s your destiny. It might be hard to find the rarest form of love, which is true love, but you’re willing to go on a train trip bound to a destination you’ve never been to given that he’ll meet you at the end of the tunnel. Love isn’t hard. Love is supposed to be easy. You just need patience and it’ll come to you when you least expect it.
 It's nearing 11 pm already when you feel lightheaded because of your wine intake and maybe due to the fact that your early sleeping schedule has been breached by tonight's unfortunate event. You bid goodbye to your friend despite her invitation that you should just sleep on her place and decided to call for an uber to save yourself from zoning out like a zombie because you can no longer walk straight with your clouded vision. Eunhee lives upstairs her bookstore because she manages her family's business when her father passed away that's why she isn't living with you anymore. You've grown to be independent now that you're living on your own after sharing the same apartment with your friend during your university days.
 "Tomorrow night at 8. I'll text you the address. Don't be late, Y/n. Have a goodnight!” Eunhee tucked you up nicely on your seat and soon the taxi sped up passing underneath the city lights in the mood for the radio's yuletide playlist. You're a bit drunk to see clearly but you can recognize the faint Christmas lights flickering throughout the busy streets. In just half an hour, the uber came to a stop and you hopped off the cab as you made your way towards the entrance of the condo that you’re residing in. You walked past the concierge and romantic music is donning the halls screaming love is in the air but not for you cause it makes you suffocated. Inside the elevator you noticed that you'll join a couple on your way to a 5-minute trip to the 12th floor. You silently wished that nobody would enter in between floors so as not to slow down your fast lane to your unit or else it'll be another episode of 'You-are-single-fgds' slapping your face. Geez, you badly want a damn break but the couple is too absorbed in their own selves, doing whatever cringey couple thing it is behind you, so you chose to ignore their reflection on the elevator walls.
 God spared you for that ride and luckily you reached the 12th floor in the fastest speed possible. You walked in a crazy zigzag pattern when you reached the front step of your door and you held on the handle to prevent yourself from falling directly on the ground. Your eyes are zooming in for the door lock as you punch in your keycode multiple times and still wonder why the door isn't granting you any access at all.
 "The fudge why aren't you opening?" You tried all possible combinations already but to no luck, you are still denied. For the 10th time, the lock gave up on you and is now urging for a password reset when all of a sudden the heavens finally heard your prayer and the door automatically opened. You fell towards a pair of arms, as if on cue you are saved once again from falling directly on the floor. You grabbed on a pair of shoulders, and you felt like you've reached your bed already as your senses are welcomed with a lovely scent of fabcon, which for you is the sweetest scent in the world.
 "Hmm. I can finally sleep now." You smiled the moment you felt safe and secured within the parameters of what you think of as your bed.
"Wait, you cannot sleep on my arms." It's too late for you to wake up because you're already dozing off to dreamland.
"Oh shoot. What am I gonna do with you?" You barged into someone's room and you haven't had the slightest idea of what you'll gonna do the next morning when you wake up.

Well that was an episode or a TV show...
I didn't think it was that great but I also didn't think it was bad.
Haven't read everyone's thoughts on the episode, but people seem kind of discouraged?
To me the episode does not negate jonsa/ Pol! Jon/ dark Dany in any way!
There are some scenes/lines that really set it up nicely!
Jon apparently told D Sansa is beautiful? I meeeean... Anything else there is to know about your platonic sisterly sister, Jon?
"I had the choice to give up the crown or save the North. I chose the North." (paraphrasing, but you get the gist). Well except you didn't Jonny, she promised to help before you bent the knee, you could have had both... Or did you maybe not have a lot of faith in good Ole D, hmm? Felt like you needed to give her some more motivation, maybe?
'We need allies' is also a great way to convince your people that bringing that chick and her overgrown pet lizards home, was a good idea...
'We would  be really old' also is a romantic as fuck answer to your girlfriend confessing she wants to run away with you and hide with only you in this majestic place, for forever...
I mean maybe this is kit being a bad actor, but Jon does not look very happy around the lohl.
This weird dragon Montage, I wasn't a fan of because it was way to long, but if we give the D's of this episode the benefit of the doubt in whether they thought with an actual working brain, while deciding to include this sequence, it does need to serve some purpose except for badly done jonerys fluff:
->Rhaegal  trying to throw Jon off and staring while Mommy and Step-Daddy/Cousin kissed looked to me like he didn't trust him very much... (Maybe it was Drogon staring, we've never been taught how to tell them apart). Dragons are supposed to be smart and 'smell' intentions, so sure he (being Rhaegal) let Jon ride him because he is a Targaryen, but he seems to think/sense something is up. He does seem to try to intimidate Jon. Also Jon looking terrified might just be him internally going: 'oh damn, he knows I think his mummy is cray...' Anyway what is the fucking reason for this shot if this isn't the case? What D, D, D and D?? Your J0nerys fluff and Jon is a Targaryen foreshadowing, would have been much smoother if you just didn't include that bit! Why is he staring Jon down??
The Dragons ain't eating: looks like two very good boys might not be that big of a help against the biGGeST threat after all, huh?
Jon asking Sansa if she had faith in him and telling Arya, that Sansa thinks she is the smartest person ever, very much sounds like: 'my darling, I'm going to need you to trust me, you don't know everything, there is more to the story, and I  really need you to play along!'
Sam asking Jon if Dany would give up her crown for her people, aka is she a Queen for the people or for status? And Jonny doesn't answer, but he is sad, so I'll give him a pass
Davos mentioning the marriage alliance exactly 5 episodes after it would have made sense. Just before  everyone finds out that Jon isn't the best candidate, the North would want as representation anymore. (guess who is though?!)
Yes there is some shit in this episode and Jon is acting like a self-righteous little asshole, Dany threatening Sansa, seems kind of out of line to me... Jon didnt really defend her, which I wish he had, because Team Stark, but it didn't seem as alarming watching it, looked like he was in the middle of coddling her... but let's not give up hope!
Other thoughts about 8.01:
Sam is the only valid person in GoT, I love him, I wanna hug him!
Varys with the fur, what an icon
Tyrion believing in Cersei seems very fishy too me... What's up with him anyway?
Gendrya is LIFE!
Cersei is great as always
Arya and Sansa, yes bitches the pack survives!
I don't understand why Yara still is 'on' Team Daenerys? Bitch, she fucking left you to die! Run!
I don't care for these Dragons at all.
Winterfell in birds eye is so obviously cgi. Very off-putting...
Riding a dragon with a cloak seems dumb to me
Glad my boy tormund is okay!
Jaime and Bran!!
Lastly:
Where the fuck is ghost??

"A Game of Thrones" (ASOIAF) Comments/Things I Liked by Me (1/?)
Bran I (AGOT) Comments
Ned beheading that Gared guy from the prologue in the name of his best friend and king Robert Baratheon.
Robb and Jon kind of seeming rather distant for brothers, than bolting off to have a race. (It gave me momentary whip-lash and I loved it.)
Ned Stark giving Bran lessons on how to behead people correctly.
"An albino," Theon Greyjoy said with wry amusement. "This one will die faster than the others."
Jon Snow gave his father's ward a long, chilling look. "I think not, Greyjoy," he said. "This one belongs to me." Bran I (AGOT)
Jon Snow in general. Book!Jon is my son. Jerry "But She's the Queen" Snow from the show can get out.
Catelyn I (AGOT) Comments
I only had one comment and it's on a whole other post. Just tap/click the title for this chapter comments and it'll take you to it.
Daenerys I (AGOT) Comments
"Ours by blood right, taken from us by treachery, but ours still, ours forever. You do not steal from a dragon, oh, no. The dragon remembers." Daenerys I (AGOT)
The Dragon remembers, the North remembers, Bran remembers. Sheesh, at this point everyone's a three-eyed raven.
Man, if your mother dies birthing you, be prepared to be hated by your siblings. Viserys hates Dany because: one he sucks and is a hateful dick. Two, their mother died giving birth to her. | Cersei hates Tyrion (from my limited knowledge of future ASOIAF events) because he's a dwarf, she thinks he's going to kill her because of the Valonqar prophecy, and their mother died giving birth to him. The lesson here? Just don't let your mother die giving birth to you if you've got siblings, hey, even then your father might hate you.
Some how, reading Viserys be an absolute garbage fire makes me hate him more. When I watched him say all these disgusting, vile things I hated him, yes, but I dealt with it. Didn't really hope for his death, but I could have cared less if he died. Book-wise, I want him dead here and now, please. I hate this fuckboy, and that probably means I'll hate book!Joffery even more than I hate show!Joffery and I actively wanted his death. Both of them are such little, garbage bitch boys.
Eddard I (AGOT) Comments
This chapter is full of shipping material, like full of it.
Jaime is not very subtle. He just straight up takes Cersei by the arm and drags her away, maybe not to a different place, but away from Robert. Probably not a good idea, Jaime, those rumours still exist, my dude.
Ned calling Jaime "Ser Jaime Lannister" (in his mind at least) instead of "The kingslayer, Jaime Lannister". I just thought I'd mention that cause it caught me off guard. Then again, Ned calls the Hound "Sandor Clegane" so maybe he's just not into using pseudonyms for others. Reminder, that's all in his head and whatnot.
Robert is great, like he's gross, don't get me wrong, but with Ned he's a lot more tolerable than show!Robert. A note that show!Robert was also more tolerable with Ned, but book!Robert has a bit more character. (Show!Robert wasn't bad. I didn't feel much when he died, just felt sorry for Ned; you know, since it kind of solidified Ned's death and Robert was his best friend, so that sucked.)
I had this outlandish thought while writing these comments. My brain went "Robert is like Santa Clause, but gross and whoremongering. He's also younger.... So I guess, in reality, his only likeness to Santa is he's fat and has a beard."
Too many chapters in this book to have just one collective post, it'd get really crowded. So, I've decided ever post will have four chapters with comments until I do a new post.
Example, Eddard is the fourth chapter (minus the prologue) so this post ends at Eddard I (AGOT). The next post will begin with Jon I (AGOT) and end with whatever the eighth chapter is, so-on and so-foreth.
Chapters:
Jon I-Bran II (5-8)

Chapter 32: Bad Karma - Ida Maria

Bad karma (oh, yeah) Baby that's what you got Bad karma (oh, yeah) Whether you believe it or not The universe is gonna getcha You'll be scratchin' the seven year itch You know what I think? Bad karma's a bitch
When they landed in Texas Emma felt her stomach rolling, she was nervous about meeting Drake's mom for the first time. He sensed her nerves and squeezed her hand leaning down to whisper in her ear.
“You don't need to be nervous.”
“How much did you tell her Drake? What if she hates me?” Emma looked around for a trash can, she felt like she was going to be sick.
“She knew about our arrangement with Liam, that's it. She's the one who told me to get my ass on a plane and come back, trust me she's going to love you.” Emma nodded and let Drake pull her along, waving at a woman with long black hair.
“You must be Emma! Drake's told me so much about yo-” she reached out to pull Emma into a hug, but Emma bolted to the nearest trash can, and got sick. Drake came over and held her hair, Bianca awkwardly standing back.
“Oh my god. She's gonna hate me.” Emma groaned as Drake rubbed her back, passing her a tissue.
“Your pregnant Walker, she's not going to be mad at you for that. She's going to be happy she's going to have another grandkid.” Emma wiped her mouth and straightened up, walking back over to his mom.
“Sorry. It's so nice to meet you!”
“You feeling alright darling?” Emma smiled.
“Just fine, airplane food.” Bianca smiled knowingly but stayed silent. Bianca drove them to her ranch and grilled Emma.
“Okay Mom, I think that's enough. You're going to scare her away.” Emma gave Drake a thankful look.
“I wouldn't have all these questions if you had brought her here at some point! You've been married for three years and this is the first time I'm meeting her.”
“Mom.” Drake's voice got a warning tone.
“It's fine Drake. I wish we could've visited before, circumstances just didn't allow it.” An awkward silence fell over them as they drove up to the ranch. Drake grabbed their suitcases, Bianca and Emma hung back in the kitchen.
“Want something to eat or drink?” Emma shook her head and Bianca raised an eyebrow.
“Stomach still upset or something else maybe? You're glowing dear. Does Drake know? I saw Liam's announcement, I'm sure you have a lot to talk about if you didn't talk on the plane.” Emma's eyes grew wide.
“I uh, yeah he knows. We do have a lot to talk about, but I had an idea I was hoping you could help me with.” Drake descended the stairs and heard Emma and Bianca speaking in hushed tones.
“Mom, I'm going to give Walker a tour.” Drake grabbed Emma's hand.
“Why do you call her Walker like it's her name?” Drake rolled his eyes.
“It's nothing, just our thing. Anyways, we'll see you for dinner.” Drake dragged her out of the house and helped her onto a horse. They slowly rode together across the entire property, it was breathtaking and a literal breath of fresh air to the palace and press constantly following her.
“This is beautiful Drake!” He looked over at Emma and she was the happiest he had seen her in years. Of course, she had been happy they got back together and after their moment on the plane, but this was different, a more carefree kind of happy, the kind of happy she had been right after they had gotten married.
“We should stay here Drake, leave it all behind.” he sighed.
“Walker, I love this place and I love you. Cordonia is our home though.” Emma knew he was right, but she didn't want to go back. Ever.
“Drake I… I don't know that I can go back. After everything. New York was my home for a long time, I love Cordonia, but I missed the states.” Drake pulled his horse over, so he was right next to her and squeezed her hand.
“I get why you're afraid, I do. Cordonia was my home though, my mom didn't move here until Savannah and I were adults. Besides, you can't run from Liam or the press forever, you have responsibilities in Cordonia like your duchy. Not only that, but think of our friends, you know Maxwell and Hana wouldn't let you stay away too long. I'm not saying we have to leave tomorrow or anything, but we will have to go back eventually.” Emma groaned.
“I know. I want to have the baby here though Drake, I want privacy. I don't need the press breathing down our necks, I want our baby to grow up like a normal kid, just like we talked about.”
“I think we can make that happen Walker.” Drake smiled and leaned over to give her a kiss before they continued the tour.
They stayed in Texas with his mom for a month, Emma loved spending time with Bianca, but she was driving Drake crazy, and Emma's sex drive had been low, partially because of all the nausea that seemed to hit her at every time of day, and also because Biana was just down the hall and the bed wasn't exactly the quietest, it squeaked any time one of them turned over. Emma still wasn't ready to go and face the press though, she had seen headlines and they were still about her and Liam. Wondering where she had gone, who she was with, how Liam was handling the fact that she had run off with his baby, if it even was his baby. That was her favorite headline. The unstable American duchess who couldn't handle the pressure of being Queen. Drake snatched her phone from her before she could read another on the plane to New York.
“Hey!”
“Walker you shouldn't bother. The press is like vultures, they're as bad as the ladies at court.”
“They're right Drake! I couldn't handle it and I ran off.” Drake rolled his eyes.
“No Walker. We're taking a break, taking time for us, time we never got to have. We're planning a wedding, getting ready for a baby, there's nothing unstable about it.” Emma snuggled up against Drake.
“You're right. I just, I guess it bothers me that they still haven't left me alone like Liam asked.”
“We'll figure it out together Walker. For now, we should worry about making new memories in New York, happy memories.”
“I want you to meet my parents too.” Drake's brows knit together in confusion as he looked down at her.
“I thought-” Drake didn't finish the sentence, the one time he had asked about her family hadn't gone well. All she said was that she had no living relatives.
“They are. They're dead, but their graves are here, I know they would've loved you. Even if you can't meet them, I still want to take you. I know it sounds dumb, but I used to go and talk to them, I haven't been since before I met you. A lot's happened since then.”
“I don't think it sounds dumb at all. I'd love to meet your parents.” They were renting a tiny studio apartment on a monthly basis, it took them a couple weeks, but they had settled in well. Emma took a deep breath and smoothed over the black dress she was wearing, she was going to take Drake to her parents graves and she was nervous about it. Drake sidled up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, kissing her cheek.
“Are you ready?” Emma nodded and let out a deep breath grabbing Drake's hand. He grabbed some flowers off the table and they hailed a cab to the cemetery. Drake climbed out and helped Emma out, he began walking in a general direction, stopping when he felt resistance. He looked back and saw Emma standing still, clearly nervous.
“Emma?”
“I’m scared Drake.” She shook her head, her breathing shallow and uneven.
“What's scaring you?”
“I've never taken someone to my parents graves. I haven't been here in four years Drake. I'm an awful daughter.” Drake pulled her in close and kissed her forehead.
“No, you're not. You were living your life, you're here now with your husband and our unborn baby. They'll be so happy and proud of you and how far you've come. I want to meet them; can you show me now?” Emma nodded and took a deep breath to steel her nerves.
“Hey Mom, hey Dad. I know it's been awhile, I'm sorry. I didn't forget about you, I've just been busy. I got married to the most wonderful man ever, Drake. He's here with me and...and we're having a baby. I love you, and I miss you so much.” She choked back a sob as Drake stepped up and laid the flowers down at both headstones clearing his throat.
“I, uh. Hello Mr. and Mrs. Barnes, I'm Drake, your son-in-law. I'm sorry I never got to meet you, but I'm so incredibly grateful for you both, for the wonderful daughter you raised and that I got the privilege to marry. I'm sure you had an idea of what kind of man you wanted your daughter to end up with, and I uh, I'm going to try and be that man. I hope that I can be a good father and raise this baby so, it turns out to be as amazing as a person as your daughter.” Emma felt tears sting her eyes, she didn't think it was possible to love Drake more than she already did, but after hearing him talk to her parents that’s exactly what happened. Drake, who had been kneeling stood back up and looked at Emma wiping a tear.
“Walker? What's wrong?” She smiled and grabbed his hand, keeping it against her cheek and leaning into his touch.
“Nothing,” she whispered, “I just love you so much. Thank you for coming with me today.”
“Of course, Walker. I love you and this baby, I'm glad you let me meet your parents.” Drake rested a hand on the tiny bump there and grabbed her hand.
“Bye mom, bye dad. I love you, I'll come visit more often. Maybe I'll have your grandkid with us next time.” They strolled hand in hand back towards the road, a content silence between them.
“Car accident.”
“What?”
“They died in a car accident. I was 20. The roads were icy one night on their way home from dinner, it was just a freak accident.”
“I'm sorry Emma.” She smiled and squeezed his hand.
“It's okay Drake. It's been ten years, I'm just really glad you got to meet them.”
“Maybe when we get back to Cordonia, we can visit my dad, you can talk to him. I haven't been in a while. He would've loved you, and to know that he would've been a grandpa, he'd be over the moon like Bastien.”
“I'd like that a lot Drake, I want to thank Jackson for giving me such an incredible husband.” Emma chuckled.
They stayed in New York for two months, Emma knew they needed to return to Cordonia. Their friends had been respectful of needed space, but they were starting to grow worried and more insistent, she was ready to face them all though. They flew into Cordonia late at night without telling anyone, going straight to their cabin. The next day after they had let everyone know they'd returned, they went to Valtoria. Hana had been holding down the fort, but it was time for Emma to step in again. Neither of them had spoken to Liam since they left, Emma was mad that he had done nothing to tell the press to leave her name out of the headlines, that it wasn't his baby she was carrying. They hadn't spoken to Olivia either, while Olivia and Emma were still friends, it was awkward because of Liam. That day they received a message from a royal carrier, Liam was hosting a ball in honor of her return and offering her a chance to publicly be announced at court with Drake if they wanted.
This was everything she had wanted and fought for during her time as Queen, but now that it was here she was unsure. Drake never wanted to be a Duke, in the eyes of Cordonia they weren't even actually married as they'd never filed any paperwork. She was pregnant with his baby out of wedlock, just another rumor for the press to run rampant with, she couldn't hide it either. She had a visible bump now no matter what she wore, it was small, but unmistakable, besides the press already knew she was pregnant. They decided to go on the condition that press wasn't allowed in, Liam agreed. The night of the ball Emma chose a dark blue gown that was off the shoulder, beading under both breasts. It hugged her curves, but wasn't tight, it was a perfect fit and it showed off her bump which Drake loved. He wore a new suit that matched, also dark blue with the pink tie he had worn to her wedding to Liam. She straightened his tie and they walked out hand in hand, but before they even got to the car they were flooded with camera flashes.
“Your grace over here!”
“Your grace, are you with Drake Walker? The Kings best friend?”
“Your grace, is he the father of your baby?”
“How does King Liam feel about this? Does he know he's not the father?”
“How long has this been happening your grace?”
“Was the weight of the crown too much?”
“Why did you lie to the people for so long?” They fired off question after question. Emma felt dizzy, so many familiar faces from previous social events. One man, the one who always wore his ball cap backwards got in her face. Emma stumbled back, and Drake caught her.
“Get out of here! Leave us alone! Can't you see she needs some space!” Drake yelled, but his voice was drowned out.
“Are you the father?”
“You're wearing a ring! Did you secretly get married while you were gone?” Emma's head was spinning, it felt hard to breath, she couldn't see because of all the camera flashes.
“GIVE HER SOME SPACE! SHE'S PREGNANT!” Drake helped Emma steady herself and made a path through the press to the car. Emma didn't feel like she could breathe again until she couldn't hear or see the paparazzi anymore. Drake was disheveled and sweaty casting worried glances over at her.
“Vultures. Don't they have anything better to do than worry about other people's lives. Hell! Liam asked them so give you some space.” Emma rested her hand on Drake's, the last thing she needed was him all worked up, they still had to face Liam and the rest of court for the first time since the announcement about the divorce. They arrived at the palace, but neither of them moved, Drake watched Emma closely.
“Do you still want to do this Walker? We can turn around.” Emma shook her head and opened the door taking a deep breath.
“Let's do this.” Emma climbed out first and waited for Drake, they walked into the palace together. Emma whispered to the herald how to announce them to the rest of the guests, they were the last to arrive.
“The guest of honor! Duchess Emma Walker and Duke Drake Walker.” The ballroom was silent for just a moment before murmurs rippled the crowd. Emma forced a smile and grabbed Drake's arm walking down into the ballroom, Emma caught Liam’s gaze, Drake avoided it. Their friends quickly found them, asking all sorts of questions, but mostly excited to see them. Bartie came rushing up to them and wrapped his arms around Drake's legs before going to Emma's, he had gotten so big. Their hearts swelled looking at him, they couldn't wait for that, it wouldn't be long now. Slowly but surely people stopped whispering and started to approach, Kiara first. Drake grabbed Emma's wrist and placed himself slightly between the women, he didn't trust either of them not to start something.
“Duchess Emma, Drake, I'm surprised to see you again.” Drake could feel the hate rolling off Emma.
“It's Duke Drake actually.” Emma pursed her lips.
“Of course,” she cleared her throat, “I wanted to apologize for my behavior before you left court. Madeleine started all the rumors and was practically forcing me onto Drake. I, uh, assume congratulations are in order.” She raised an eyebrow at Emma's belly.
“I think you should leave Kiara. I don't like what you're implying about my wife.” Drake snapped.
“Non, just a misunderstanding. I'm sure there are many people who want to talk to you though.” Kiara stepped away and Emma rolled her eyes turning to Drake. He rubbed his hands up and down her arms.
“Are you ready to sneak off yet?” Emma chuckled and looked around.
“Absolutely, but all eyes are on us. We'd never make it out of here.”
“Screw it. Let 'em see.” Drake pulled Emma close and dipped her for a kiss, he pulled away when he felt her smile against his lips.
“Where did that come from marshmallow?”
“I've wanted to do that since the homecoming ball, now I can, and I don't plan on wasting a second.” Someone cleared their throat behind them and they turned to see Liam and Olivia standing there. Emma and Drake both stiffened, Drake and Liam hadn't seen each other since Drake had punched him. Emma made the first move, smiling and giving Olivia a hug before nodding politely to Liam.
“Thank you for this ball Liam.”
“Of course. Has everyone been polite?” Drake scoffed behind them.
“Just peachy.”
“How's Lucian?”
“What does he mean? Has someone bothered you?” Drake laughed incredulously.
“The entire court has been staring at us all night, the press practically attacked us outside of our estate in Valtoria. So much for calling off the watchdogs.” Olivia stepped up ready to snap back, but Liam grabbed her arm.
“It's okay Liv,” Liam turned to Drake, “I'm sorry that's happened. I'll be speaking to them first time tomorrow. I know it might be hard to believe, but I've changed, and I want to make up for all the pain I inflicted on you both. Please, let me know if I can do anything for you. I know things can probably never go back to the way they were, but I'd like to try.” He held out his hand and Drake looked at it and walked away. Liam sighed and dropped his hand.
“Give him some time Liam. We're both working on our forgiveness, maybe some of us more than others.” Emma pursed her lips and glanced back at Drake.
“I should go after him, it was good to see you again Olivia. Liam. We'll have to catch up, chat about Lucian.” Olivia beamed.
“Yes, he's doing well. We can talk about it later though, go.” Emma chased after Drake and felt all eyes follow her as she left the ballroom. She found him outside by an empty bar cart.
“Hey, ready to get out of here?”
“I'm sorry Walker. We can go back in there, I just needed a minute.”
“It's fine Drake.”
“He just, I can't believe him! After all the shit he pulled now he's asking for forgiveness? Saying he's changed!” He ran a hand through his hair angrily and paced.
“Drake,” Emma stepped in his path and put her hands on either side of his face, forcing him to look at her, “I hated him. Hated. I do think he's changed, and I think we should give him a chance. He was your best friend. I can’t stand the thought that I had anything to do with you guys drifting apart, so please think about it okay?” He held her gaze for a moment, his eyes softening.
“You never cease to amaze me, let's get back in there. It's your ball after all.” Emma leaned in for a slow, passionate kiss.
“No. Let's go home Drake, back to the cabin.” She let her hands trail down his chest and over his crotch, Drake instantly responding.
“Absolutely. Let's go.” He grabbed her hand and they ran off to the car. The next morning Emma woke before Drake and looked over at him, his hair was a mess and he was on his side facing where Emma had been moments ago, his face squished against the pillow, an arm out on her side of the bed. She had been laying in his embrace for almost an hour, she couldn't lie still anymore, but she didn't mind watching him for a minute before making coffee. He looked younger, happier, so much more handsome when he wasn't wearing his signature scowl. She snapped a picture and wandered downstairs, turning on the news as she waited for the coffee to brew. There was breaking news, Liam was holding a press conference.
“About three months ago, I stood before you and told you Lady Emma and I were getting a divorce and I asked you to respect her privacy, though I never gave you a reason why. Well you have dragged her name through the mud and you cornered her and her companion last night at her home. That is not respectful to her or anyone else! I am horrified by this, what our media has become. I offer you a deal, leave Lady Emma alone, leave her out of this. Leave my son and Lady Olivia out of this, and I will give you a tell all interview. If anyone so much as looks at one of them or speaks of one of them, then the deal is off. You've got 24 hours to think about it. Thank you.” The press was silent and then began clambering after him.
“Drake!” Emma hollered, he came racing downstairs panicked.
“What? Is it the baby? Are you okay?”
“I'm fine. Watch this.” She rewound the press conference for him and got them both a cup of coffee.
“Wow.”
“I think he's changed Drake.”
“Maybe.” Emma's phone began to ring, and she saw it was Liam calling. She frowned but answered anyways. Drake watched her like a hawk over his cup of coffee as she took a seat at the kitchen counter. When she hung up he looked at her expectantly.
“Well? What did he want?”
“He wanted to know how much I was okay with him sharing, if he should mention you if asked. The media already figured it out anyways. I'd rather have the record set straight than another fake headline floating around.” Drake nodded, he hated the idea of being in the public eye and everyone knowing their secret, but that was part of the territory and a small price to pay for being with the woman he loved.
Olivia paced back and forth in front of Liam as he bounced their son in his arms.
“Liv.” She held her hand up to stop him. He had mentioned the night before telling the press to lay off Emma and Drake, but he failed to mention it would include a tell all interview.
“What were you thinking? Oh wait, you weren't! This will reflect badly on you, me, them, our son! I can't believe you! Still bending over backwards to please the American.” Olivia rolled her eyes.
“Olivia that's enough!” She stopped and looked at Liam, he had used his king voice, he never used that voice with her.
“This isn't about Emma, it involves her, but it's not about her. This is about us. I'm tired of seeing headlines about you wrecking my 'marriage’ or hearing rumors whispered around court. People calling our son a bastard child! Honesty is the best way to go about this and what we should've done from the beginning, but I'm going to fix it. I don't want our son growing up hearing these things about his parents or himself. It's all gone on long enough.” She considered his words, knowing he was right.
“Well, this all could've been prevented if you didn't need the shiniest new toy every time.” Liam smiled, he knew Olivia and Emma were friends, but Olivia had some lingering jealousy.  
“Liv, you know I only have eyes for you.” She rolled her eyes, he always said that though. She snatched Lucian out of his arms and turned her back on him.
“Liv.” She didn't answer. “Olivia.”
“What?!” She snapped and turned around. Liam was there on one knee smiling up at her.
“Olivia Nevrakis, I have known you for as long as I can remember, you have been a staple in my life and I regret that I didn't recognize sooner just how perfect you are for me. Liv, you are the Queen of my heart and I want you to be by my side forever as the Queen of Cordonia. Will you do me the honor of marrying me?” She was speechless, she and Liam had discussed the future before, but it never really involved marriage talk, it focused more on their son. Their relationship had been a kind of slow burn, building up the more tension that grew between Emma and Liam. The silence built between them and Liam began to get a sense of déjà vu.
“Liv?”
“Yes.”
“What?”
“Yes! I'll marry you Liam.” He stood up to slip the ring on her finger and went in for a kiss, but she held up a hand to his lips and he frowned.
“I'm keeping my last name though.” Liam chuckled and leaned in to kiss her, this time she allowed it.
“I would expect nothing less Queen Nevrakis-Rhys.”
“Good, now go get ready for your interview.” She pushed him away with one hand before slapping his butt. Liam jumped surprised.
“Just enjoying knowing you're all mine now.” Liam took a deep breath in the palace boutique and out on his best suit before having his hair and makeup done. He was nervous, palms sweating as walked up to the podium in the press room. They fired question after question at him, but he had been expecting them all.
“So, you're saying that Lady Emma was unfaithful to you after you cheated on her?” Liam suppressed an eyeroll.
“No. Lady Emma and I had an arrangement. Our friends were in danger and I needed the Cordonian people's support. I knew that they loved her and trusted her, and so I asked her to marry me, it was then I learned she was in love with someone else. I suggested that she could be with who she wanted, as long as she agreed to play the role of my wife for the cameras and in turn she let me be with Lady Olivia who I love dearly and has agreed to marry me.”
“What about Lady Emma's baby? Are you saying that you're not the father?” Again, he had to suppress an eye roll.
“Do you not feel betrayed by your best friend? Is Drake Walker the father of the baby?”  
“No, I do not feel betrayed, and yes Duke Drake Walker is the father of his wife's baby. I'm very happy for them both. This interview is over now.” Liam stood and left the press room.
Next Time: It’s been a year since Emma and Drake returned to Cordonia! What are they up to now? Has everything gone smoothly?

@bidonnas (aka mik):  i followed celine like ages ago bc i was looking for more harries to follow and she seemed so sweet and, like, a Quality™ blog and we've been mutuals for ages as well and we like sent each other asks for like ask games and tagged each other in tag games but we didn't start talking more until the first gc in like march of this year and i do not regret a single thing of entering that gc bc i got to meet my birlfriend, now my bife. we've just gotten closer over the past 6 months of being in so many different groupchats with each other and i love everything about her. she's funny, she's kind and sweet, and she loves mamma mia. i mean, who could ask for more?? fjdkgksdljkfg celine deserves the whole world and all the love in the world and i love her so so so much!!!!
@guccifloralsuits (aka violet):  Celine, you already know it but literally love you tons, you make my experience as a harrie stan so much brighter :) I'll always remember the #funkirk days and times we've been throught - from the discourse days to the crazy concerts & I can't wait to see what this next year for you & us brings! You're so easy to talk to and fun to share this experience with! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALL MY LOVE TO YOU 💖
@annaonvinyl (aka essie): Celine, Celine... I believe we've been mutuals not for that long and i do remember checking my notifications and seeing that she followed me i kid you not when i say i nearly had a moment because i would constantly see her posts and people talking so nicely about her. i can now understand why people kept saying sweet things about Celine, i mean she's amazing! if you aren't following her please do me a favour, go to her blog and press that follow, just... do it. celine is so sweet and funny, her blog is the perfect mix of aesthetic and relatable and not to mention she's so freaking stunning? i mean... have you seen her? model material, i'm telling you. so in conclusion what i want to say is celine is gorgeous and so nice and i love her! tanti auguri bella! spero che tu abbia un bel anno davanti a te e tutto il meglio vada per te! goditi la giornata e sorridi molto (scusa il mio italiano arrugginito)
@signofthebis (aka petra): Happy birthday, Celine! ❤❤❤ You know why I followed you. Because of the tags you wrote under my bta pants gifset. And I knew in that moment... this is a person that gets it and I need her in my life. And then I was lucky enough to get into the biconic gc you started and I got to get to know you and wow? You're amazing. You're so funny and incredible and just... I stan forever??? You're truly a queen. ❤❤❤❤ One day your selfies are gonna kill me because you're that gorgeous. And honestly? What a way to go. So Celine, I hope you're having a wonderful day and may your life be filled with only the best of luck, may it be full of love and kindness because that's what you're giving to us and you deserve the same it in return. Ily ❤
@flowerfeasts (aka dani): I followed celine like a year ago because i used to see all my faves tagging her on my dash, so i thought she was very important and cool and i remember waiting like a few weeks to follow her cause i somehow thought that would increase the chances of her following me back? lmao anyway, i still think she is very cool and i LOVE her fashion sense and she is a libra! that means she is awesome
@harryandcats (aka lejla): CELINE MY ANGELBOO!!!! I’m sooo bad with words and tbh?? there’s not enough words to describe how much u mean to me anyway smh you’re one of the sweetest, funniest and smartest (let’s just not mention your posts and the things you say something BDJDNDNDB) and loveliest people I know!! you’re also so silly sometimes but in a very cute and endearing way bdndn I could talk to you about literally anything, be it something deep or something random like poptarts bxjdndn speaking of poptarts we truly gotta meet someday and you’ll have to buy me lots of things and in return you’ll get the biggest hug of your life!!!! sounds like a plan if you ask me anYWAY I lov u with my whole heart, you’re my love, my life, my wife, my gf, my bitch, my boo, but most importantly: my dumbass ✌🏻😔 I hope you have the loveliest day!!!! Happy Birthday, Celine!! 💗🌈💕
@harrysnotechanges (aka kristyna):  Celine 💕💕 you are so funny and such a kind and generous person (not to mention gorgeous, ugh it’s not fair). I’m pretty sure I first started following you because of your url (I mean how much more iconic could you get,,, and I couldn’t agree more, the bta pants were the best pants Harry has ever worn tbh) and I stayed because you’re just an amazing human being. Ily 💕💕💕 Happy birthday!
@gettingdizzy (aka sav): I LOVE CELINE she is super kind and funny and like a little sister to me!! talking to her always makes my day better :) im not even sure why i started following her we probably got put in a gc together or something but im so glad i did!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ILY
@nofoookingway (aka jess): Oh boy, lil Celine. The cutest bean I’ve ever seen. I know we don’t speak anymore bc I’m trash and got too overdramatic about a stupid lil thing, but I’m so glad that we still follow each other and I see you on my dash every day. Your posts never go without a typo, even if it’s just the tags, and that’s probably my favorite thing about you. You’re so expressive and so weird in the best of ways. I’m pretty sure you’re starting uni (if you’re not smack me), but I know you’re going to kill it. It’s hard af, and it’s gonna suck. You’re gonna hate it sometimes, but believe me when I say I know you can do it and that you will have a blast once you find your niche. If I can do it, you sure as hell can. I wholeheartedly believe that. Anyways, I hope your birthday is just as fun and amazing as you are. ilysm 💛💛
@leesh (aka leesh lol): HAPPY BIRTHDAY CELINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope u have the absolute best birthday ever bc it’s what she deserves and i hope harry makes an appearance again looking absolutely fabulous bc it’s also what she deserves (maybe wearing the bta pants? yes i’m putting it into existence!!!!). i honestly can’t rmbr how or why i started following you, maybe it was a gc or maybe i just liked ur blog, i have a terrible memory, but i am SO GLAD whatever the reason I DID. i love seeing ur posts on my dash and i love seeing what you’ve got to say and i also love talking to u in gc’s and stuff. ur a cool gal and i’m glad we had a chance to become mutuals and pals. again i hope u have the best way day ever and get spoilt rotten. i love u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💖✨
@kiwiintro (aka kayla):  Happy Birthday Celine Bean! I hope it's amazing I love u and you're so iconic and amazing and ur an actual Meme™️ sometimes anyways again I hope your birthday is amazing and have fun being 1(one) year older ❤
@harryftvans (aka teresa): celine my dearest witch princess and gentle air spirit happiest of birthday wishes to you!!! someone’s getting old lol anyway I wish u all the best and hope you have a great day and that a lot of other great days will follow because u only deserve happiness and love and ~good vibes~ in your life!! stay ur amazing self, you’re always so chill and laid back (which is nice in this hectic world gksndn) and even when you pull a zayn on us at the end of the day you’re always there for us, being supportive and it’s always a delight to talk to you and hear stories from you!!! great britain is blessed to have you for the next couple of months/years (hope u have a nice time at uni I believe in u) so yea enjoy your day hope it’s filled with lots of love and hugs!! i’m glad you’ve been brought into the world and i’m glad we were out in the same group chat I couldn’t imagine my days without u, love you v much💕
@pinkflaredpants (aka iris): No offence but it's been a whole ass year since we first heard medicine and still no fuckin studio version of sott.
@britneytshirt (aka daria): celine, remember the day we became mutuals? it’s definitely been a year(+) now, can you believe it’s been that long? i followed u not really expecting to be followed back and u followed me about .02 seconds later and honestly i was a lil shocked. so i put my insecurities aside and decided to text u and u said u just saw my url and liked it and followed me. like?! *harry voice* craziness right? anyway, i like to think of u as a little present from life. when we started talking i was very lonely and literally cried myself to sleep every other night and having a friend, you, to talk to made me realise nothing is ever that bad and in a way... gave me hope? you mean so much to me. you’re always fun to talk to, u always have the funniest things to say. and most importantly, i know i can always count on u for whatever, you’ll be there to listen to me. so thank u. i’m so grateful i have a celine in my life. i love u
me (aka moi): so....celine, where do I even start? from those very first few months when I joined this fandom in september last year we were close friends. we started our first conversation about old 1d memes and the rest is history. I don’t think there’s been a time in the last year or so where I haven’t spoken to you, and I really couldn’t imagine my life without you in it. I look forward every day to chatting with you in the gc and i’m always just in awe of how accepting, loving, caring and truly inspiring you are as a person. I love hearing you speak italian in the rare voice messages you send, and especially your selfies (I will hold the belief that you should be a model to the grave I think tbh). you inspired me to love myself for who i am and we’ve grown as friends into something I never thought i’d reach. i’m never going to be able to fully articulate the weight you hold in my life or the impact you’ve had on me, and i’m bad at expressing my feelings anyway, but I just wanted you to know how LOVED you are, by me, and from everyone here. I can’t wait to eventually meet you once you’re settled over here and I can’t wait for the memories and shows we’ll make in the future. thank you for being you, and please never stop being your amazing self 💕

I took a break from SYG bc I don't want it to end and I remembered I had a whole list of fanfiction links saved from 2019.
Unfortunately, my favourite three are broken(I assume the fics got deleted) so I am going to mourn them. I have titles for most of them, and no authors:( I'm sorry i was dumb in 2019.
I'll start by saying they were all tim/masky x reader. My favourite, most beloved. And I read a LOT of fanfiction, the fact I had the links saved meant these ones were GOOD good.
Noire City
I remember the characters having accents. It was unique and fun, "1930s brillance" is what I wrote. An AU I hadn't seen before, and it was written really well too. The world building was exquisite and made good sense. I vaguely remember a scene with Jane and that it was cool and that she was a bitch in a good way. I wrote "I'm 98% sure my friend is a lesbian and she's deluding herself" and I'm so sad I can't read this to figure out moreeeeee.
One that I forgot to write the name of, but one of the side characters was named Monet and she was a queen and I genuinely miss her. I don't remember anything else about it(other than also really liking Tim's portrayal), but I want Monet back,,,,,,,
And my favourite that I can remember, Love Favours Liars.
I wrote the most about this one, loving the mc, adoring her even. Thinking the premise was so cool and unique. The character interactions being PERFECTION!!!! Desperate for more, being sad it had been six weeks from the last update(I kept track of this one bc I really really loved it). Like I would genuinely pay real money to reread this fic. I'm not even asking for it to continue, I just want to experience reading it again.
And now the ones that are STILL ALIVE BUT I ASSUME DISCONTINUED. I have yet to reread them, I just found them last night lol. I'll probably make update posts abt the new impressions I got!
Untreatable by Koelie
I remember really enjoying the premise. Mc being an ICU nurse. Thinking she was a fiesty crybaby. I read this one extremely caffeinated and sleep deprived and really really enjoyed it lol. I thought the relationship seemed realistic and the characters had sensible reactions to the situations. I cannot remember much except for what I believe was the last chapter, mc was stealing patient info, there might have been a fire. Her moral compass swinging like a metronome.
You Promised me Forever by Dunes
I found it when it was brand spanking new!!!! I anticipated a really bitter ending, but one thst would be worth it to read with an emmense payoff. I liked the premise, I was very egar to learn about this world!!! Great writing, very atmospheric. I made a note that sometimes it was too vauge so I found myself a bit confused, but otherwise I really really liked it.
Distraught by Thé Próblamatic Narratór
I'm glad this one is still up, I remember enjoying it actually. I don't have much written, but I know it was a fun read. I wrote "fake murder and lots of caught feelings" so I'm super excited to reread it lol.
