For ao3 wrapped: I'm late so just take this as an excuse to answer any questions you really wanted but didn't get ❤️

I'm using this one to shout about all the birthday gifts I got on AO3, because I was spoiled this year. Friends know that all of these are in my scrapbook.

25. Did you receive any gifts this year?

Growing old can go to hell by @invisibleraven Set in the 'Reggie is the one who survived' universe, with Rose/Ray/Reggie.

The Birthday Gift by @floating-in-the-blue Where Yeo was like 'I'm going to make Caleb/Alex/Willie a tag on ao3 so help me' and I enabled and then got smut for my birthday.

And not on ao3 but still: this delightful Ray/Reggie fic by @jatp-spinsb where Reggie is like 'oh yeah Luke my photographer boyfriend can help capture your proposal to Julie' and then OOPS IT'S MR MOLINA. REGGIE YOU'RE DATING JULIE'S DAD????

And of course art of Caleb Furbington by @jmrothwell

Phantom Carols

For the @jatp-adventevent prompt: What are their Christmas insecurities?

Day Twenty Three: You Make It Feel Like Christmas <-AO3!

Julie was not a fan of shopping for people. Mainly because she was a gift perfectionist. Each present had to be well thought out, and perfectly suited for the recipient.

This year was especially hard because she had four ghosts to shop for. Like, what do you even get for ghosts?

They could only be seen by people not connected to Julie while playing or at the Hollywood Ghost Club in Willie’s case, so gift cards to stores was out. See also anything to do with food, as all it did was remind them how much they missed eating.

She could get them music stuff, but after her dad found out about the guys, that was what he and tia had opted for, so that idea went nowhere. Ditto games because while they had permission to use Carlos’ systems they seemed to be happy enough playing his emulators of games from their childhoods.

She did up a scrapbook for the band, but she wanted something for each of them to unwrap on Christmas morning.

Which left clothes. Not the best gift, but it was one of the few options she had left.

Her dad had gotten the guys a cheap dresser to store stuff in, and they had more basics now, but their wardrobe was still limited. Julie took advantage of laundry day to peek at their sizes, and off to the stores she went.

Willie was easy; crop tops in funky patterns with equally funky socks. She scoured a few stores and found a good collection, and a truly awful ugly holiday sweater, just because she knew he’d get a kick out of it.

Alex liked shirts with 80’s pop idols and anything pink, though he had admitted that his fascination with the colour came from an incident with a red sock that ruined his whites. So for him, she gets him a pair of red socks, to be cheeky, and a few new shirts in soft pastel colours.

Luke was the easiest; cut offs, band tees, and hideaway socks. The problem was finding shirts of bands he liked that he didn’t already have. Thankfully she found a bunch of vintage Green Day and Nirvana shirts at a thrift store and bought those.

She left Reggie for last. Even though she had taken him shopping a few times, he just bought more of the same few staples; monochromatic shirts, ripped skinny jeans, and that was it. She had offered to get him a new flannel, since his was getting worn, or a bigger leather jacket as he had started outgrowing his before he died. But no dice.

Alex was the one who told her that Reggie’s MeeMaw had bought him the flannel for his last birthday, so there was no replacing that. And the guys had gotten him the jacket, and Reggie considered it his signature piece, refusing to give it up.

“It made the bullies stop picking on him, because he was putting out the tough exterior,” Alex admitted. “He got into a lot less scraps then.”

Julie wished she could have known the guys when they were alive, because the little snippets she got made her more and more convinced that they had badly needed friends outside each other, and a caring environment to grow up in. The best she could do now was give them as much love as she could, both her and her family.

That’s when she got an idea. She still got a few new staples plus some fun doggy socks for Reggie and headed off to home.

On Christmas Eve morning, she pulled the guys into the living room, and thrust a present at each of them. Each of them ripped open the packages, and Luke’s face struggled not to fall. “Oh. You got us socks?”

“Not only socks,” Julie said, giving them each a gift bag. On top were the clothes she picked out, but there on the bottom, she had given them each a set of…

“Pyjamas?” Alex asked.

“Every year, we Molinas get a set of matching holiday jammies,” Julie admitted. “This year… well you guys are my family too. Molina or not. So you get pyjamas too. To wear tomorrow morning for breakfast and stockings are the rest of the gifts.”

“Thank you Julie,” Reggie said, and she could see his eyes were a little glassy, and could hear a tiny sniffle in his voice. That was what made Julie sure she had made the right choice.

“Group hug?” Willie proposed.

Everyone nodded and agreed. Getting up in a large embrace, glowing as whatever magic Julie possessed thrummed through the air, letting them touch, letting the guys be more visible, more present… more alive. It came and went, but right now Julie was incredibly glad it worked, because if she wasn’t able to hug them right then, she would cry.

Okay, maybe she was crying anyways, but so were they, so no one said anything.

Happy tears could flow freely, especially at Christmas.

The next morning they all showed up in their pyjamas, grinning and bouncing, humming and singing as Ray snapped a family photo, and they finally were able to see them, not a bunch of orbs. Carlos thought it was lame, but Reggie timidly asked for a copy for the studio. “Our first family portrait.”

“I’d be happy to do that for you mijo,” Ray replied. And no one mentioned when the tears started anew, until it was time for stockings, and they disappeared. At least until the game of charades that afternoon anyway.

Though Julie was totally blaming that on how hard they were all laughing, and not how much they felt like a family for the first time in so long.

But she was totally keeping that photo for after they made it big and made their inevitable Christmas album.

on this old ass five gifset, i don’t know there’s something about it i guess, the fact that i managed to keep it simple (i have a problem with overcomplicating things, making them way too messy) but still got the point and the feeling i was going for across › NEVER FINISH A WAR WITHOUT STARTING ANOTHER

Link a gifset where you tried something new:

I WANTED TO BE STRONGER › this was one of the first gifsets where i really went all the way with the style experimentation and where i had the idea of the ‘blubble frame’ as i like to call it, which i love using from time to time

SHADOW AND BONE MAIN CAST › i actually first used this particular style in one of my assassin’s creed edit (NO BOOKS, NO WISDOM) but that never on my main so!

READY OR NOT for @overzonen

NO LULLABY / PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS for @number5theboy

ON LOVE AND ANGER for @evakant

TAG SOMEONE WHO ›

Tag someone who inspired you to start making gifs:

Oh gosh, I think I started around 2011 so I really can’t remember. I never really stopped but I had some kind of renaissance last summer, in july and I owe that to all the amazing creators in the Umbrella Academy fandom.

Tag someone who makes great vibrant gifs:

@captainheroism @meliorn @ughmerlin and @nina-zenyk all make such unique use of colors, in their own personalized styles but with such consistency and I never fail to recognize their edits on my dash, they stand out in the best of ways!

Tag someone who makes great pale/pastel gifs:

I’m not really a fan of pale or bw gifs, I live and breathe colors but! @ciriofcintras is the only one I follow who edits like that and the only one I need because everything she makes is amazing, neat, and sharp. Always the right balance of shades. special mention to my girl @mariathorpe use of muted colors that always fit the mood so well!

Tag someone who gifs for a fandom you love:

Well, too many to count I think. If we’re mutuals, there’s a good 90% chance that’s because you’re gifmaker too and we share fandoms! To name a few, @number5theboy you already know I’m ride or die for lizzie but the thoughtfulness she puts in each gifset makes it extra special! @andyoudoctor myra is constantly improving and dishing out amazing content

Tag someone who uses text/typography really well in their gifsets:

becca @inejz-ghafa engy @alina-mal and ava @anya-chalotra are my go to for this particular type of inspiration! their careful placements and gradient and font work is always lovely, you can feel the effort behind it. typhography is the thing i waste more time on when i gif so i can really appreciate their art!

Tag someone who motivates you to step up your game:

miss ava for sure, becca again, @ogaferoga is a artist in their own right and no one does it like them. honestly ALL the people i’ve tagged here are the reason why i always strive to try new things and experiment more, i feel like we’re all learning together, at our own pace but together nevertheless and that’s so inspiring and comforting ♥

Tag someone who you have taken inspiration from:

again, i won’t ever deny the huge impact @anya-chalotra had on my current style. i try not to go with the exact type of edits of other gifmakers, unless it’s a particularly popular trend that doesn’t involve a particular attention to composition both out of respect and because i like to experiment on my own. but that’s exactly what ava pushed me to do, her edits showed me how much potential photoshop had that i wasn’t really exploiting so i got down to learn more about it! she remains my # editing goals for sure ♥

Tag gif makers who you admire and appreciate!: i love you guys so much, keep doing your thing and being awesome! @arnos @alethiometry @milkovivhs @allisonshargreeve @rockyblue @evakant @dykejaskiers @arthurpendragonns @starkkov @jessiemeili

#text #gif maker appreciation #sorry it came so late!#today is the first day i can actually sit and write without feeling immediately dizzy #thank you all so much for tagging me i loved seeing everyone's boosting their work #and each other!#love you guys thank you for making my dash such a bright place

A Flower for Your Hair and My Hand for Your Hand

Word Count: 1037 This was inspired by this post here and I also took some inspiration from this very sweet anon on @incorrect-jatp-quotes

AO3

Ray got back from work, came in and set his stuff down on the table and headed up to Julie’s room. He knocked twice, “Hey!”

“Hey, dad! How was your day?” She said closing her laptop and setting it aside, welcoming him into the room. “I had a great day! Hey, how do you feel about dinner at James and Simon’s?”

“Oh, I miss hanging out with them, haven’t seen them since-” Julie stopped mid-sentence and her head dropped a little. James and Simon worked with Ray, they had a lot of dinners and game nights with the Molinas. Soon after their wedding, Julie’s mom fell sick, and they hadn’t hung out with them since. That needed to change, it had been a year since she last saw them. She looked up with a soft smile and said, “Yeah, that’d be fun.”

“Great! I’ll go talk to Carlos.” Ray walked out grinning and excited.

Julie went out to the studio to talk to the boys, to find Alex lying on the couch balancing his drum sticks on his fingers, Luke and Reggie playing some game. “Hey!” She caught them off guard, Alex dropped his sticks and sat up to face her, Luke turned around and stood up, their faces all lighting up. “We’re going to dinner at dad’s friends’, you guys can come. They have a really cool music collection, and they love your songs!”

“Oh cool!” Reggie said enthusiastically. Julie turned to him and said, “But you cannot do anything of the sort you did with Carlos to prove ghosts are real, just, don’t.”

Reggie looked at her and then his bandmates for a second in silence until Julie broke it with laughter which they joined in.

💮

The boys walked through the doors after the Molinas and followed them into the living room. Alex stepped in slowly, as if measuring each step. James welcomed them in and he followed in after Luke and Reggie, admiring the art and posters that adorned the walls of this beautiful home.

When Alex saw James walk up to Simon and stand beside him and take his hand, his eyes widened and a smile spread across his face, looking pleasantly surprised.

They hung around and admired the wall of musical records, a large collection that included a few of the familiar ones Luke wrote, with Trevor Wilson’s name on them. Alex just sat down beside Julie on the couch and listened to them talk and play charades. He looked happily when James ran his fingers through Simon’s long hair, as they sat close so comfortably.

Julie was quick to notice Alex. She’d found out about Willie when the boys told her about how they got to play the Orpheum, but she finally heard about him just a couple of days back when Alex couldn’t stop smiling after he returned from the beach, having met Willie for the first time since the Orpheum. She glanced at him knowingly and asked James, “Hey! I haven’t seen any pictures of the wedding. Can I see them?”

Alex had realised that James and Simon were a couple, but it was when the word “wedding” struck his ears that he realised they were both wearing wedding rings.

“I made a scrapbook of all the best ones, it was difficult to pick, so it’s a pretty big scrapbook!” James all but jumped in his place as he told them excitedly about the beautiful, decorated and loved scrapbook as Simon brought it out and sat down beside Julie to show it to her, Alex jumped out of his seat and stood behind Julie to get a clear look at the pictures of the ceremony. Luke and Reggie sneaked up behind him giving each other knowing looks, as Luke put an arm around Alex’s shoulders.

Alex went through a spectrum of feelings, but the most overwhelming was the warmth he felt in his heart. Tears rolled down his cheeks that couldn’t stop smiling.

The photos looked so beautiful, straight out of a fairy tale. James was wearing a black tuxedo, the design of which matched Simon’s white one. Simon’s hair was tied up with white flowers in them. Alex thought of a forgotten dream, a dream which felt lightyears away from possible, again after a long time looking at the pictures of a ceremony he could only imagine.

💮

They had dinner and went home. Still unable to believe that he’d just spent the evening the way he had, Alex asked Julie a question he had now been waiting to ask since he saw James and Simon’s wedding rings but held back so that it wouldn’t appear that Julie was talking to herself. “Gay people can get married now?” He asked like children ask if they can open their presents.

“Yeah! Gay marriage has been legal since 2015.” She smiled and went to her room after saying goodnight to the boys.

💮

The next day, when Alex went to the beach, he smiled brighter, his eyes twinkled as he waited there for Willie. On the way, he saw some beautiful flowers and picked some for Willie.

When Willie poofed in front of him, he jumped to hug him, but unlike the last time he had hugged him, having met for the first time after he thought they’d never see each other again, this wasn’t urgent. This hug was soft and happy, assured that neither of them is going anywhere.

Alex broke apart and walked behind Willie to put the flowers he picked into his hair. Confused Willie turned to face him and took the flowers out and examined them in his hand, he looked up with a smile to see Alex’s face had dropped a little. He tied his hair up and put the flowers in them and grinned at Alex. The twinkle in his eyes returned. Willie bent forward to give him a kiss on his cheek and chuckled as he saw Alex turn as pink as his hoodie.

Willie picked up the skateboard, walked to his side, took his hand and lead Alex ahead, prompting him to walk with him. They didn’t need to walk, but they just wanted to, holding hands and smiling because they couldn’t help it.

do you know how to handle anxiety when it comes to fandoms? like you know worrying about where a story line could go and stuff like that? it's just that it gets bad sometimes for me. I do have anxiety when it comes to everything and I'd take worrying about fictional stuff over anything else but it's still hard to deal with. right now I'm worrying about us not getting a s2 of jatp, and worrying that if we do get one the writers might make willie cross over all alone and I don't want that (1)

+I know logically we will get a s2 *fingers crossed* and I know because willex is super loved the writers will take care of them but yeah my mind hates me and doesn't seem to want me to catch a break.

hey anon, the thing that helps my anxiety, especially if its based around a fandom is to step back and take a break. This might sound like hollow advice, it's not. Find other things to do, read a book, daydream, play scrabble and don't go on any platforms where you may somehow connect back to that fandom (especially if there's even an ounce of toxicity there). Sometimes, it's okay to be a casual fan and forget the investment you've put into a fandom.

I think we should give Kenny the benefit of the doubt, he's worked in a lot of movies, he's a seasoned filmmaker, he won't disappoint us (I mean you fell in love with jatp s1, didn't you? you'll love s2 too). im hopeful for willex, he'll give us what he couldn't give us with Ryan Evans (HSM) in jatp. I'll talk more about the bury your gays trope regarding willie that a lot of the fandom (at least that's what my ask box is telling me) is worried about but i don't think kenny introduced willie, gave him his own storyline and a dynamic with caleb only to create his cross-over arc next season. I'm hopeful for a s2 but in the mean time, i know i get repetitive here, just vibe and get creative with the outlets you use for your anxiety. read, draw, write, scrapbook, make edits, take a walk, make an aesthetic board on pinterest, do anything.
