OZ Rewatch 3: s3e08: Out o' Time

Plotlines:

(mini) Said gets bitten by a rat

(mini) Rebadow : be afraid

Rivera backs out of Sister Pete’s program; the other members of El Norte are let out of Solitary and El Cid threatens Miguel, who tells Sister Pete he won’t tell the warden who raped his daughter and wants to go back to Solitary; Carlo and Chico go to kill Miguel; Carlo is killed; (mini) Pete and Mukada moment; Miguel tells the warden that Carlo was Ardeth’s rapist

Shirley gets her execution paused and commuted to life imprisonment after Sister Pete realises she is insane

Beecher, Keller, etc, get out of the hospital/solitary after their scuffle

Diane and Claire get into a physical fight; Glynn and McManus verbally fight

(mini) Junior and Poet get out of the hospital; Kenny tells them they’re back with Adebisi, who has a plan

Ryan and Hamid go to Glynn to get the boxing match uncancelled; Stanislofsky hints to Murphy about O’Reily spiking the water bottles; Murphy doesn’t tell anyone but doesn’t let Ryan keep poisoning the waters; Ryan gets Seamus to come visit to rile Cyril up instead; Cyril gives Hamid brain damage in the boxing match; Khan’s wife wants him taken off life support

Said and Tobias observe the rising racial tensions between white and black…Adebisi radicalises Hughes; Hughes whips it out in front of Lopresti and Howell for some reason after hearing them being racist in the locker room; Schillinger does a speech to various white prisoners; a COs vs prisoners aspect is added the mix, increasing tensions

Glynn fires Hughes

New year’s scenes throughout the prison; Toby and Chris kiss; Adebisi gets a gun from Hughes

Sister: [EXTREMELY LOUD GASP] …Isn’t that the lamp we have back home?? (There’s a lamp at our parent’s house that does indeed look like that lamp lolol. Guess it must've been a popular 90s design. I’d never noticed before.)

Sister: Your guy gave up pretty quickly. Me: Yeah, he was not with the program whatsoever. He was holding that knife like a pen.

Sister: Oh look, she visited… I guess the rest of the family members were like ”whatever”.

Sister: Ugh, this guy’s still alive?

Sister: He looks like he’s supposed to be a conman at a beachside casino resort.

Sister: the racist kind...

Sister: …And there will be nooo direct consequences…

I always wonder what the Latinos were doing during all this LOL. They’re conveniently just nowhere to be seen whenever the show decides to do a black/white race thing. Are they on the second tier? All at work? In the showers??

Sister: Hahaha finally… That’s what you get for showing your dong to everyone…

Sister: I don’t like that. Me: (thinking hard) …His underwear? Sister: Yeah. I don't like that. Looks like a thong.

Sister: (as Khan) (wheezing) Happy… new year…

Stray thoughts

When Carlo and Chico go to kill Miguel, you can sort of see through his shirt that Carlo has magazines stuffed against his abdomen as armor. Fat lot of good that did him, though.

Miguel 1999 🏆Most Distracting Nipple Award

Sister did not want Cyril to win the boxing match since way before it even happened

Sister was convinced that there was going to be another riot

Why was Hughes still there way after hours after he got fired lol

Sister thinks Augustus had the skin mag out after they were banned to go to the Hole on purpose

My plotpoint bullet points are becoming soooo long at this point. I long for the days when everything could be summed up more simply lol... Or maybe I've just gotten more detailed about it??

Final Thoughts

Sister thought there should’ve been more Auld Lang Syne type catharsis. She was not a fan of the low key cliff hanger lol

Thought more people should've kissed but failed to come up with who might possibly

The McManus/Glynn fight always feels like it sort of came out of nowhere to me. I’m on Glynn’s side because WTF is McManus even talking about thb? When does Glynn even really get seen having to deal with the white prisoners' bullshit outside of Schillinger and Peter Schibetta? (Also, when McManus uses Hill as an example of Glynn taking the side of a black inmate, I can't for the life of me figure out what that is referring to). I understand that the race divide/tension is a thing among the prisoners due to the boxing match, but some of the lines that the show tries to draw and connect throughout this episode don’t make that much sense. I know that the muddling of issues is sort of the point when the aspect of COs vs prisoners gets thrown into the mix, but McManus yelling at Glynn about the racial aspect just seems weird. I guess it makes more sense/gives more causation to next season when Glynn hires Querns to take McManus’s place, but honestly I feel like McManus being how he is at that point is cause enough.

First Lines of Last 20

Saw this going around and it looks like fun so: List the first lines of your last 20 stories (if you have less than 20, just list them all.) Choose your favorite opening line, tag some friends!

i just wanna be (a part of you), Brady/Matt (a/b/o, sibling incest, Neckz 'N Throatz au): Matt doesn’t tell anyone before the fact.

He knows a lot of people are going to see it: Neckz 'N Throatz is a porn mag, sure, but it's also an institution in a lot of ways and everyone he knows has seen at least one issue of it.

take my hand, Brendan Lemieux, background Brady/Matt (bdsm au, background sibling incest): Brendan knows that look, understands the glint in Tkachuk's eye; he's played against Matthew before, knows he's a sub and that he's been collared since he was a rookie, but Brendan's never given much thought to the kind of sub Matthew was, how alike they might be in some things.

But now playing against his younger brother and seeing a familiar smirk twist his lips, Brendan thinks they might be more like each other than not.

hold me tight, Dylan Cozens/Ryan Johnson (getting together, wjc shenanigans): Dylan opens the door in a faded pair of sweats, barefoot and shirtless, and it takes Ryan a few seconds to get his brain back online; he knows Dylan's huge, knows how tall and built he is, but it's like his brain forgets that Dylan is exactly his type and every time he sees him in person it's like a fresh jolt to his system.

“Ryan,” Dylan says with a bright smile and pulls him in for a hug; Ryan hugs him back and absolutely doesn't think about the fact that Dylan could probably manhandle him any time - any way - he wants to.

just to feel you, Brady/Matt (sibling incest, a/b/o, heat fic): Brady knows it’s going to be him and Matt.

They still fight like cats and dogs, as eager to use their fists on each other now as when they were kids, but there's an edge to it recently that wasn't there before, something that makes Brady want to pin Matt to the floor and take him apart, bite by bite.

just like oxygen, Jack/Connor (werewolf au, graphic violence, courting rituals): Jack's fourteen the first time he meets Connor.

It's at the U16s, both of them the youngest players on their respective teams and both convinced they were the best players on the ice.

i love the way you hurt me, Brady/Matt (sibling incest, werewolf au, graphic depictions of violence, courting rituals): Courting probably wouldn't have been such a big deal for any of the wolves Matt played with growing up if it wasn't for Eichs and Davo.

From the first time Davo laid a dead bear on the patio of Eichs billet's in Detroit until he presented Eichs with Murray's head at center ice during the final game of the world cup, every wolf Matt knows had paid rapt attention, endlessly fascinated by the story unfolding in front of them.

nobody loves you (like i do), Brady/Matt (sibling incest, bdsm au, sadism, masochism): The thing is Matt doesn’t consider himself romantic or anything like that. He loves Brady: as his dom, as his brother, as his boyfriend, and yeah, he needs him in the same ways, but those are just facts to him.

They’re feelings, too, of course they are, but Matt is as sure of them as he is the sky’s blue and hockey is the best sport: irrefutable facts that shape every day of his life.

beginnings in death, Jack/Connor (in death au, first meeting, pre-relationship): The first time he sees Connor is at a funeral.

Jack's there mostly for Noah's sake; they go back a long way, just two street rats who somehow dragged themselves from the back streets of Boston to New York City and become successful along the way. He would rather spend his time finding who did this, but Noah needed the closure and he needed support so Jack stayed.

charlie, Charlie/Brandon (godlings au, alternate universe - Greek mythology): Charlie doesn't remember anyone ever explaining what death, or the afterlife was to him.

He's pretty sure he was born with the knowledge in his bones.

got you under my skin, Jack Hughes/Quinn Hughes (sibling incest, a/b/o): Everyone in their immediate family are betas, even their cousins, so it's something of a shock when Jack finds out Quinn's an alpha.

They're playing ball hockey in Chucky's driveway and Matty's back from Calgary for the summer so they're playing two-on-two; it's not a particularly intense game, just some friendly chirping and half-hearted shooting.

in between, Jack/Connor (godlings au, homophobic language): The locker room afterwards is quiet in spite of winning and Connor knows part of it is his own bad mood bleeding over to the rest of the team, but he can't bring himself to care as much as he should.

not a day goes by, Brock Boesar/Elias Pettersson (a/b/o, non-traditional a/b/o dynamics, frottage): Brock is just so pretty, it's hard for Elias to concentrate when he's around.

He wants to buy Brock new suits, ones with some color and a good cut that would make him look even better than he already does. Take him out to dinner, spoil him so he knows how much Elias wants him.

He's never looked at an alpha and thought mine. Never wondered how one would look with his collar around their neck.

all your fevered dreams, Brady/Matt (sibling incest, hellhounds, sirens): Most preternaturals don’t recognize Matt’s scent right away.

The ocean part of it is simple: all sirens smell like saltwater, even if they’re not born at sea the way their ancestors were. It’s the brimstone that makes wolves and other shifters wrinkle their noses in confusion and lean in closer to get a stronger smell, like their noses lied to them the first time.

eyes closed, fingers crossed (i swear), Sam Girard/Erik Johnson, background relationship (bdsm au, spanking, kneeling): It’s just a quiet moment between the two of them, after a bad game. Sam pulls him closer, makes sure he’s surrounded so all Erik can see is Sam, makes sure Erik is only focused on him before he tells him that the loss isn’t his fault.

Erik knows he wasn’t playing his best hockey, but he breathes in Sam’s scent, listens to his voice and lets go of the loss faster than he normally would.

those words, that kiss, Patrik Laine/Nik Ehlers (werewolf au, a/b/o, heat fic): The first thing Patrik notices about Nik is his scent: it’s light and airy, almost, the bright scent of oranges and some kind of flower scent that drives Patrik crazy because he can’t place it; it’s not until halfway through his rookie year, when they’re in Florida for a roadie, that he catches it in the middle of a store and has to follow it until they’re in the middle of the gardening department and he’s asking a bemused worker what flower is in the trays by the register.

feel good (on my lips), Dylan Strome/Ryan Strome (sibling incest, a/b/o, heat fic): Ryan knows his parents aren't getting back together, they split when he was still in mites and considering how badly they used to fight, it was a decision that was met with relief on his part, so he's never secretly hoped for a reunion or anything like that.

It's still a surprise when his dad tells him that he's dating someone new, a female beta from his company who is also divorced and with a son a couple years younger than Ryan is; he's happy for his dad, though, and agrees to stay at his place during winter break to meet them.

just swimming in our sins, Brady/Matt (sibling incest, accodental dick pics, panty kink): Matt gets the snapchat notification as he's getting ready for bed and his phone goes off almost immediately after.

"Don't open that," Brady tells him in a loud whisper, his voice weirdly echoey; Matt goes over Brady's schedule in his head and remembers he's in Florida this weekend. "I sent it to you by accident because I can't see shit in this fucking bathroom."

sweat drips (love sticks), Brady/Matt (bdsm au, sibling incest, masochism, sadism): Matt knows the kind of sub he is and he's always been ok with it.

There's worse things for a hockey player who happens to also be a sub to be than a masochist; at the very least he always has a bruise to press when he's jerking off, aches and pains that he can pretend someone put on his skin during a scene if he wants to. Usually he doesn't.

strike us like a match, Brady/Matt (sibling incest, sentinel and guides are known, canon typical violence): They've always been close, closer than most siblings Matt knows: Brady's always been protective of him, even when they were younger and Brady was smaller than him; he's selfish about Matt's attention, always wanting Matt to pay attention to him and only him.

There's never been a time where Matt hasn't wanted Brady with him, even when they fight Brady's always the one Matt wants to be around.

So now, my fave 🤔🤔🤔 I think probably it's love the way you hurt me because it's a good intro for the entire series as well as the fic itself.

Tagging: @007waffles007 @adamsgirl42 @candy-belle @caixxa @colubrina and anyone else who wants to do it!

#meme #my fic #sibling incest #werewolves au #godlings au #and a bunch of other stuff #too many pairings to tag #sorry this is so long #i'm on mobile so i can't put it behind a cut #long post #that's hockey baby

I Watch Homeland So You Don’t Have To - Season 8 Episode 8 Threnody(s)

No Quinn...not in the physical sense. His name is not mentioned. But he was front and center in my heart, and it broke all over again. Lamentations abound.

After a brief reprieve, Haqqani was executed by a firing squad. The reprieve was supposed to be for 24 hours, to allow the US to rescue Max from Jalal and his Taliban soldiers. It was an agreement between President Hayes and G’ulom. However, President Hayes is a wishy, washy, useless excuse of a President. His new advisor, John Zabel (Hugh Darcy), crooks his finger and convinces Hayes that the odds of rescuing are not high enough to put forth the effort to rescue Max. After all, who is Max to Zabel and Hayes, but a nobody?

But not to us 💔

Yevgeny informs Carrie about Haqqani’s execution as she watches the compound through binoculars for any sight of Max. She sees soldiers taking him to a vehicle and gets ready to follow. However, Jalal exits the compound and draws his gun on Max, shooting him three times as Carrie watches from afar.

Their vehicles drive off, and Carrie races to Max’s side. She checks his pulse and puts her arms around him. She lays her head on his shoulder and cries. She mourns. She actually mourns.

Then she calls Saul to tell him Max is dead. She’s angry and blames him for not doing his job and protecting Max. Saul agrees to have Special Ops pick up Max’s body, but there’s something else to discuss.

Saul: “Carrie, you know you can’t do this.”

Carrie: “Do what?”

Saul: “Keep running around out there with a GRU officer.”

Carrie: “That GRU officer was the only person who gave a shit what happened to Max.”

Saul: “You gotta come in.”

Yevgeny and his men drive up and offer to take him inside, but Carrie insists on carrying Max’s body with Yevgeny. She carries his body. Did she carry Quinn’s body when he died? Did the writers of Homeland allow Carrie to really show any grief for Quinn? NO! This is SO fucked up! Max deserves this grief and this attention, but Quinn didn’t?!?!?

Meanwhile, Jalal shows up to a Shura Rahbaraan, a meeting to determine Haqqani’s successor, while another Taliban soldier is addressing the group, supporting peace. Jalal is having none of it. He sensationalizes the fact that Haqqani didn’t die with the first round of bullets. He dropped to his knees, but stood back up for more, and that’s when he died in a second round of bullets. Jalal also pulls out an RPG and says he’s the one who shot down both helicopters. He rallies the soldiers and incites them to embrace his position, one of violence.

Later, Jalal is confronted by the Taliban soldier who supported peace. He says he knows Jalal did not shoot down the helicopters, and that he was nowhere near them. Jalal handles this in a surprisingly calm manner, leaving the ball in the other soldier’s court.

It’s nighttime now, and Carrie has been sitting with Max’s body since bringing him inside one of the compound buildings. Yevgeny approaches her to basically figure out what is her plan. Special Ops doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to pick up Max or her, for that matter.

All she knows is she is staying with Max and going back to Kabul with him. Carrie tells him he can leave if he wants, but he says they have time. He asks about Max, which gives Carrie an opportunity to share how important Max was to her...but yet Homeland totally glossed over how important Quinn was supposed to be to Carrie!

Again, Max is beloved, and I am glad Homeland gave Carrie these words to say about him. It’s just another stab in the heart that AFG couldn’t even bother to do something more for Quinn.

Yevgeny: “Who is he?”

Carrie: “Oh, this is Max.”

Yevgeny: “Okay.”

Carrie: “The one I’ve known forever. I’ve told you about my whole life. I must’ve said something about him.”

Yevgeny: “No. You never did.”

And Carrie looks genuinely pained. She nods her head and looks at Max.

Carrie: “Well, Max would do anything for me. Absolutely anything. Wherever I’d go, he’d...he’d end up there by my side. And the reason I never mentioned him...is I took him for granted. I...used him...all these years and...now he’s dead.”

Carrie loses it. She full-on grieves, crying apologies over and over to Max. She kneels over and leans on his body before turning to Yevgeny’s arms.

All those words. But none of those words were used for Quinn. None of these deep tears and apologies were given for Quinn. None. NONE. It’s a fucking shame this show took a hero like Quinn and shit all over him again. I’m sad for Max, and I’m sad for Quinn.

While Carrie deeply mourns Max, Zabel is getting wind of Jalal’s meeting. A friend of Zabel’s came through with some intel when he requested dirt on Wellington, Saul, and Ryan. His friend has video showing Jalal’s confession to shooting down the helicopters and killing the presidents. And now, Zabel takes this intel directly to Hayes (even though Zabel is told it’s unverified and can’t use it), who will change his speech and provide that unverified intel to the world, basically declaring war on air during his presidential address.

Mike informs Saul Special Ops will be leaving soon to pick up Max’s body. Saul plans to go, and Mike is all like, what for? When Saul tells Mike he is bringing Carrie back, Mike refers to Carrie as a defector, to which Saul takes offense. Then Mike basically goes “Tomato-Tomato” 🍅and refers to her as a “collaborator with a Russian agent.” Saul defends Carrie, but Carrie’s status with everyone else is still cloudy at best...especially the Special Ops team.

Saul corrects Special Ops, saying that they will not be apprehending Carrie, that she’s not a Russian agent, and that she’s coming in on her own. They circle around Yevgeny and Carrie, and Max’s body laying on the ground outside the compound. Saul looks incredulous, seeing Yevgeny.

Yevgeny warns Carrie that she won’t be received well, but Carrie says Saul has her back. Yevgeny kinda throws it in her face that maybe so, but instead Carrie came to him.

Carrie: “I can’t stay out here forever.”

Yevgeny: “Why not?”

As the helicopter approaches, Yevgeny departs while Carrie yells out a “thank you.” Yevgeny and his men watch from a distance as Saul and Special Ops arrive to retrieve her and Max. Saul fills Carrie in about Hayes’ speech and asks for her help. Carrie tells Saul that she has a lead on the black box. Saul wants to follow it up together and get to the truth.

Carrie: “But no more bullshit about my loyalty, not from Mike, the FBI, anyone. I did what had to be done.”

Saul: “I know. I’m on your side.”

Carrie: “Are you?”

Saul: “I am. You know that.”

On the way back to the helicopter, Saul asks if Yevgeny knows about the black box. Carrie says no, he thinks this was all about Max. Oh, the Max you just blubbered over? Now you are back to using him again.

Everything’s going swimmingly until Special Ops want to search Carrie and put her in restraints before she gets on the plane. And then it’s like HELL TO THE NO, BITCHES!

Saul tries to smooth things over, but it gets real, real fast. Special Ops and Carrie draw on each other. Saul yells for everyone to stand down and gets in between Carrie and the US soldiers. Yevgeny and his men pull their guns as well. While everyone dances around each other, Yevgeny shoots his gun in the air. Carrie is backing away from Saul and the helicopter, and towards Yevgeny.

Saul: “Don’t do this. Come back with me.”

Carrie: “What, so we can work together?”

Saul: “Yes, I need you.”

Carrie: “In fucking handcuffs?”

Saul: “That was a mistake. I didn’t know.”

Carrie: “YOU LIAR!”

Oh, Carrie’s face, and the way she spit out her last words to Saul...How many times have Carrie and Saul been on the outs with each other? Too many to count, but Carrie walks away and gets into Yevgeny’s vehicle...the man who basically held her prisoner for seven months? Saul can’t do anything but leave, cursing everyone.

Saul and Carrie watch each other as the distance grows between them -- Carrie from Yevgeny’s car and Saul from the helicopter in the air. Carrie tells Yevgeny she needs to find something else...the black box.

Yevgeny doesn’t look pleased. Is it because the Russians are behind the helicopters going down? We know it wasn’t Haqqani. It wasn’t Jalal. It wasn’t Tasneem or the Pakistanis. Perhaps we haven’t ruled out G’ulom entirely, but he could have had help from the Russians. Carrie may have just left the frying pan with Saul and jumped into the fire with Yevgeny.

Final Thought: RIP Max and Quinn. I hope they are trading quips and drinking together on a beach somewhere.

#fmrf #i watch homeland so you don't have to #homeland season 8 #threnody(s)#peter quinn #fuck this show #quinn deserved better #they proved they could have done better #but of course they didn't want to honor quinn in any way #lazy fucks #RIP max #RIP quinn

insert a GOOD tik tok reference here ! hey , i’m izzy ( my middle name , my actual first name is lola , but i thought having my character’s nickname and my name be the same might be confusing , but you can call me either ! ) , i use she / her pronouns , i live in the est timezone and i haven’t left my home in a solid FIFTY-THREE days ! i’m so , so , so excited for this group and to finally give netflix even more real estate in my brain — they really do own this ass !

( ester expósito , cisfemale , she / her , muse b ) — oh my god, i totally just saw PALOMA VIDAL walking through greenwich village ! you know, she plays VALENTINA ROMERO on that new netflix show, the village ? i can’t believe they’re already famous at TWENTY. i’ve watched all of their interviews, and they totally come off as BRAZEN and STOIC, but they can also be DEBONAIR and CONSCIENTIOUS. based on their social media, i’d describe LOLA like ( script pages covered in notes , silver rings , iced matcha on a warm day , coconut-scented sunblock ) — totally makes sense that people call them THE PRODIGY.

𝐢. 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬

full name : paloma isabella vidal. nicknames : lola , loma & palo. age : twenty. birthday : september 15 , 1999. sun sign : virgo. gender : cisfemale. pronouns : she / her / hers. romantic orientation : heteroromantic. sexual orientation : heterosexual. relationship status : tbd ! passports : spanish & american. languages spoken : spanish , english & a few words of french. label : the prodigy. pinterest board : click here !

faceclaim : ester expósito. height : 5'5". eye color : hazel. hair color : blonde. dominant hand : left. tattoos : a moon on her left shoulder blade , which she got in memory of the long nights she spent on the beach in california ( malibu nights by lany , anyone ? )

positive traits : debonair , conscientious. negative traits : brazen , stoic. enneagram type : type seven , the enthusiast. hogwarts house : gryffindor.

𝐢𝐢. 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲

paloma was born to cristian and alina vidal ( respectively a producer for film and television , and a retired actress turned director ) in los angeles in september 1999 , and grew up in the GLITZ of hollywood from a young age. though many would think a life of premieres , backstage passes and paparazzi would go straight to a little girl’s head , paloma’s parents both made sure her life was kept as normal as possible. she was raised in l.a. , and spent most of her time either in school , or by the water.

despite her parents’ backgrounds and careers , it was never really written in the stars for paloma to follow in their footsteps. growing up , she was a particularly active and outdoorsy child , with a penchant for sailing , surfing ( see her HEADCANONS below for more on her surfing ! ) and photography. guidance counselors thought she might choose to become a pro athlete of some kind , or perhaps some kind of sports journalist or photo-reporter.

throughout high school , she felt a certain lack of direction , feeling torn between her childhood interests and the pull of hollywood , and what she’d seen her parents do their whole lives. in her junior year of high school , the opportunity to audition for the role of audrey in her school’s rendition of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS came up. landing the role , and the subsequent weeks of rehearsals and performances , cemented the idea of a career in the arts for paloma.

she eventually made a move towards the industry by attending the savannah college of art and design ( scad ) , as a performing arts major. the opportunity to audition for the role of VALENTINA , in netflix’s upcoming show the village was brought up by one of her professors ( along with her parents’ connections ) , who urged her to travel to new york. within a few weeks , filled with travel and a flurry of online assignments , paloma landed the role and decided to move to new york full-time to be present for the filming of the show.

though she’s always been known as quite a workaholic , taking on the role of valentina has amplified it greatly. she’s usually the first in and last out on set ( actor-wise , at least ) and is known to prioritize making sure she knows her lines and blocking over beauty sleep. at present , this hasn’t devolved into anything too SERIOUS , but definitely could in the future ( will it be a slippery slope to a caffeine addiction and perhaps something more , or will she correct course in time ? stay tuned to find out ! )

𝐢𝐢𝐢. 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚

VALENTINA ROMERO , known as val to friends , is the village’s resident pretty girl ( with a brain ). she’s what would result if serena van der woodsen , cher horowitz , cordelia chase , elle woods and summer roberts were put into a blender. from a prominent political family , she was raised between party fundraisers , easter egg hunts on the white house lawn , campaign trails and society gatherings.

much like SERENA , her life has happened under the warm glow of the spotlight , and things always seem to have come easy to her. she’s a little more tame than serena though , and rarely ends up on page six ( when she does end up in the pages of magazines , it’s usually for something a little more decent ).

much like CHER , she’s known for her fashion , and is the darling of amateur photographers in greenwich village. she’s not really the type to bring anyone down for their taste , but rather one to remark when someone wears something she’s into.

much like CORDELIA , she’s not one to bite her tongue when something’s on her mind. she’s got a sharp wit , and adores honesty over everything else. again , she’s not known to bring people down for sport , but will rebut anything that comes her way if it’s meant to be damaging to her , her family or her friends.

much like ELLE and SUMMER , she’s a lot smarter than she looks. she doesn’t always try as hard as muse a , but often ends up with good grades anyway. she’s often underestimated by group project members or fellow students , who see her as the stereotypical DUMB BLONDE. proving them wrong is her favorite sport.

𝐢𝐯. 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧𝐬

she took up surfing at a young age , and made it her primarily source of exercise growing up. for a while , many thought she’d either go pro , or end up photographing surfers professionally. since moving to new york , she’s had to CHANGE workout regimes , but that hasn’t stopped her from decorating her apartment with surf memorabilia.

she loves experimenting with fashion , and is known for her BOLD red carpet looks. from bright colors to unusual materials , nothing is off limits ( as long as it’s ethical ! ) she chose her stylist specifically because both saw eye to eye when it came to taking a risk , rather than playing it safe.

her favorite scents are coconut sunblock and surf wax , which she found is CANDLE form and is always burning in her apartment when she’s running through lines , practicing her blocking , or hanging out with castmates / friends. it’s also one of her favorite ‘ first day of shooting ’ gifts for the cast and crew around her.

dried mango is her ABSOLUTE favorite snack , and she’s always carrying some around on-set. her mother used to give her that and frozen grapes growing up instead of candy ( since she has such a sweet tooth ) , and she’s been hooked ever since.

she’s not one to name-drop her parents’ connections and friends in the industry , but the one connection she’ll proudly let people know about ( when they ask ) is that , yes , hugh jackman is her godfather. he and her father met when the latter produced x-men in 2000 and have been INSEPARABLE ever since. if paloma’s ever able to fake a believable aussie accent , it’s thanks to hugh.

her script pages are usually covered in notes , made in pencil , highlighter , markers , or whatever else she can get her hands on. over the past few months , and during her time at scad , she found that jotting down her IMMEDIATE thoughts on a scene , her lines and / or her blocking always help her remember things better. she keeps all of her notes and script pages in binders back at her apartment , so she can always look back on her character arc and make sure she stays true to who valentina is.

𝐯. 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬

give me the WILL THEY , WON’T THEY ? , where the paparazzi and magazine editors are all convinced there’s a relationship bubbling below the surface. and who wouldn’t ? paloma and your muse have incredible on-set chemistry , are always seen hanging out outside of work hours , and are expertly paired by their publicists during press rounds. that said , when removed from the flashes of the paparazzi , nothing seems to have transpired ( yet ).

give me a RYAN REYNOLDS TO MY JAKE GYLLENHAAL ( see this video ) , where our muses cannot be paired together for interviews anymore , after cracking jokes every five seconds instead of promoting the village. they’re fused at the hip on-set , and are usually the ones to go live on instagram during filming breaks , to the delight of fans.

give me an EX , because working with someone you used to date ( or just sleep with ! ) creates so many great possibilities. was it awkward for them to see each other’s names in the press when casting for the village was revealed ? or did one ( or both ) of them see it as an opportunity to build a friendship ? are they jealous on-set , or can they keep it together ?

give me CHILDHOOD FRIENDS , with bonus points if the friendship exists because of their families’ ties to the film & tv industry. if people dig deep enough through google images , there’s bound to be a picture of them together as children on some red carpet. perhaps the years of knowing each other have turned them into best friends , or maybe they now can’t stand the sight of each other. after all , hollywood can get competitive and ugly.

give me the BROTHER SHE’S NEVER HAD , who teases her mercilessly , but will always protect her from the paparazzi. they’re protective of one another and are each other’s rock in the new world that is sudden overnight fame.

give me the PLATONIC LIFE PARTNER , whom paloma loves more than her own self. they have the login information to all her devices , they text people back in her stead , they sleep in the same bed , they readjust each other’s clothing on red carpets. one is rarely seen without the other , and the village’s fans revel in the two’s friendship.

i also have a full WANTED CONNECTIONS tag right here , if you want to peruse and find something that suits you , your muse and your own wc !

FAMILY

Husband: Hugh Ryder Daniels Parents: Royce and Rachel Wagner Siblings: Ryan (36, fraternal twin)

HISTORY

Rosalie is the daughter of Royce and Rachel Wagner and fraternal twin of Ryan Wagner. She fell perfectly into the role of the daughter of not one but two politicians. Dressing up and looking pretty for the camera was a skill she fell into naturally. She adored the attention her parent’s events brought her, the fancy outfits she got to wear and the way people fawned over her when she was a child.

As she grew up her interest in clothing expanded, blossoming into a love of fashion and her dream of becoming a fashion designer. Naturally, she knew she needed to eventually leave Frostford in order to actually achieve her dream. The small town wasn’t the type of place she could become known for her creations.

After high school went to university in New York at Parsons School of Design for Bachelor of Fine Arts with a focus in Fashion Design. It was her dream come true and Rosalie was absolutely convinced that she was going to become the next big fashion designer.

Before leaving Frostford she had a big head on her shoulders, but she at least could keep up a humble act. Once she was in New York her opinion of herself skyrocketed. Her inner fashionista was unleashed to its full potential.

She married Ryder because he was handsome, he was charming, and he had a whiskey business that could lead to getting wonderful connections.

Rosalie did have some good ideas and she got to work (on the team) of some big names in the fashion industry. A few of her ideas were good enough to make it into a high-end fashion line or two and she won’t ever let anyone forgive that. Did she become a big name? Absolutely not. Does she act like she became a big name? You bet.

She’ll name-drop celebrities as if she knows them and is friends with them, and wasn’t just in the same room as them at literally just once and maybe made a single comment in their general direction. If you call her out on it she’ll get very offended. Think Tahani Al-Jamil meets Moira Rose.

She and Ryder lived in New York for years. That came to an end and they’re back in Frostford. She’s not thrilled to be back in Frostford. How is she supposed to be a famous fashion designer in a small southern town? Still, she’s thrilled to be able to tell people her countless New York stories and tell them in a way that makes her seem far more important.

If she knew her husband was cheating on her she would literally start throwing all of the heavy, sharp, objects at his head as hard as she could (RIP Ryder she finds out).

Right now, she has an online store that has some of her designs but it’s very small scale. She uses Instagram to promote it and is trying to find a way to use social media to blow it up into the next big thing.
