Listen, maybe it’s just that I’ve done almost every slow burn route this game has ever thrown at us (Jake, Noah, Finn, now Ozzy, I also went for Oliver who was a last minute LI in S4), but I’m kind of… hopeful still? I won’t lie lmao, that hurt. It really hurt for a minute there. But at the end of the day, after you get a minute to sit back on it, it’s kind of understandable.
I seriously don’t get why people can do whatever they want in this game (MC included), but, if Ozzy does it, he’s the villain. Was what he did great? No. But was he hurt and confused and just made a mistake? Yeah. It’s actually not that different from what Grace did in CA, just less intentional. And I don’t know about you, but I don’t think Grace is a bad person. She’s not my favorite (I won’t lie), but she’s a good gal. So, I get it (I still have to get completely over it myself), but let’s not talk about Ozzy like he’s this bad person, please.
He’s no Suresh. More than anything, Ozzy gives Noah vibes with an even softer personality, more baggage AND more insecurities.
MC was absolutely right to be mad at Ozzy right about now, but personally I also defended him from Marshall and Grace, because what was that. The hypocrisy (Grace), the gall (Marshall).
Also, I see that a lot of people are forgetting this is Love Island and Ozzy had no obligation to anyone at the time in which CA happened. We have every right to be upset, of course, but he’s no snake or player. Personally, I kind of just want to hug him.
Again, MC is completely right to be mad at Ozzy now (though I’ll admit, I’m already dying for the two of them to sort things through), but the fact that Ozzy was spiralling so bad he went for a three-way kiss while skinny dipping (when we know how he feels about intimacy) absolutely broke my heart.
(Not to mention, when Ozzy said he immediately regretted that night and was beating himself up about it, I swear I felt his words down in my soul. Plus, he’s the only one who owned up to his own mistakes. That, in my opinion, is more important than not making them at all.)
ALL 👏 OF 👏 THIS 👏
Fact: We weren’t in a couple with Ozzy
Fact: As MC, you can make so many choices throughout the game (kissing, bits, lap dances, etc.) that you get away with
Fact: It stung, but I still love Ozzy
Maybe we are all just making excuses for him, but I really don’t think he’s a bad guy. He owned up to it and seemed so remorseful. Grace was unapologetic for kissing Hamish, which I don’t really care about, but then she’s livid about Ozzy. I like her but I’m over her antics.
At the end of the day, I’ve put up with much worse in this game- Cherrygate, Blake, S5 to name a few. We’ll get over this, too 💖💖

this ask is directed towards both of your pages (though i'm putting it here bc of my opinion) and it's this; based on what you've seen in the games/shows, would you rather be on love island or too hot to handle?
Ogkmgmfmd okay okay I love love love that you asked me this because I definitely haven’t spent way too long thinking about it.
Honestly I’d rather be on Love Island.
The challenges look SO FUN and I love the whole idea of the show. It would be so bad for my anxiety but if I found someone lovely on there I wouldn’t hesitate to stick with them.
Also there is no way is be able to keep my pants on for THTH. Sorry not sorry. I’m old enough now to know that I CAN get to know someone without the physical aspect, but why in the ever living fuck would I want to do that 😂😂😂
Tagging you back @ignocubo, and also tagging @longbobmckenzie @oliverslove @caitkaminski @junebirdle @queen-of-boops @lucas-koh and @operationnope to answer as well!!!!!

20 Questions (for fic writers)
Thanks for the tag, @operationnope! I've written even less than you have, but this'll still be fun.
How many works do you have on ao3?
A whopping four.
What's your total ao3 word count? 59,604
What fandoms do you write for?
Love Island the Game
Harry Potter
Top five fics by kudos:
Epistle
What I Did for Love
Taking the Plunge
Beginning Together
Do you respond to comments?
Every one! (There's one I haven't responded to yet, but I'm going to after this. 😊)
What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
Epistle, definitely. It was originally a one-shot, but I'm going to continue the story. Hoping for HEA, but that all depends on what Hermione & Draco do.
What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Beginning Together, for sure. It's impossible to have angst when there are sheep around. #Facts
Do you get hate on fics?
No, I don't have enough readers for that. But what an awful thing to do. There's literally nothing forcing you to read it--just move on with your life.
Do you write smut?
Just wrote my very first one! I was terrified.
Craziest crossover:
Don't have one. Yet?
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Doubtful.
Have you ever had a fic translated?
No.
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Nope.
All time favourite ship?
My MC & Carl; my MC & Bobby; Dramione.
What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
I hope to finish both my WIPs, so I'm not going to jinx them. Oh! And I forgot I was also going to expand the world of Taking the Plunge because I loved Nadia & her friends so much.
What are your writing strengths?
Narration, witty asides, description & small details, world-building...? I find it difficult to answer this question.
What are your writing weaknesses?
Reading too many others fics instead of making myself sit down to write my own. 😳 I take too long between chapters. I need to write more about how my characters are feeling/sensing, etc., particularly in love scenes. Maybe showing some characters' bad traits?
Thoughts on dialogue in another language?
I enjoy it, even if there's not a translation. I don't mind looking it up. If it fits the character, this should be included. I think right now I only have one ESL, and I try to pepper his dialogue with Swedish words and phrases and nicknames. Sweet Henrik.
First fandom you wrote in?
LITG! First fics I ever read, too.
Favourite fic you've written?
Uhhh...I think WIDFL, my very first (and a WIP). And I'm very proud of Epistle.
I'm not sure who's already been tagged, so feel free to consider yourself tagged if you want to do this!

it's my love language
6. What’s the first thing you notice about people?

Pass
Favourite fic you've written?
'and the day after that, too' which is not available because it's part of the world where my original exists so how about off the market instead?

5, 6 and 11 for the positivity ask game 😘
5. What is a song you associate with a specific character?
Oooh, that's interesting. I listen to songs on repeat while I write, so oftentimes the song is more tied to my personal interpretation of the character than to the canon one. So I guess I'd say Maybe by Lewis Capaldi for Bobby. It's about fear and self-destruction and perfectly captures Bobby in TSIME.
A thousand times, I said too much Always second-guess before I jump I gave my all, but not enough And with the weight of expectation, I'll be sleeping rough
How come I'm the only one who ever seems to get in my way? Lately, I've been fucking up a good thing any chance I can get
6. What is your favourite part about being in this fandom?
The people. They are smart, funny, talented, quirky, fascinating and altogether lovely humans.
11. What's something that lives in your brain rent-free and you want everyone to know about the fandom/game/your fanworks?
I don't really know how to answer this one. I've pondered for far too many days. So I'm gonna say the first thing that rolls into my pea-brain.
WE HAZ GUD SMUTZ.
I'm pretty much the next Shakespeare.
**
Sorry for posting so late to the game (literally). These answers take me forever. I put way too much thought into almost everything, and tag games are no different!
Thank you @operationnope for the ask. You light up my life in a very literal sense 😆

If you had to guess, how do you think theo and mc are gonna end up together? Bc the way things are going rn (with us never even being able to talk to him) I just don’t know how it’ll work out and it’d be so weird if he just came out and said “hey I really like you let’s couple up” when we haven’t had a single chat with him. And it seems like at this point he’s more invested than claudia is especially after today’s episodes where she straight up tells mc she thinks she’s exactly her type. So I can see how her route will open up but all theo does is talk about how committed to claudia he is. I just need to couple with him rn!!!!!!
Oh friend, I’m equally frustrated about the whole thing!! And the short answer is- I don’t know. They are keeping Theo away from us which I find very rude and unnecessary. Like calm down fb, we know what a slow burn is 🙄
The long answer has three parts (maybe more 😂):
What I would love to see happen- we develop a true friendship with Theo, maybe confiding in each other about our partners or challenges, and it blossoms into something more. FTL is my drug of choice and I would eat that. But fb cannot be trusted to deliver such things 😔 (Ooh, fic idea💡)
What I think will happen- some major event with him and Claudia that ultimately breaks them up. We’re starting to see cracks, especially this volume with their lifestyle differences. He likes to travel, she likes to put down roots. And she doesn’t like his dancing 😂 But I have a sneaking suspicion that he kissed the OG Rachel we keep hearing about and maybe that comes to light. Then he’ll have a moment where he’s like, I was holding back because I was trying to do right by Claudia, blah blah blah. How we interact with him up to that point though, I’m hoping they’ll open his route with this Tyler guy coming in. Maybe he’s Claudia’s type and that makes Theo reconsider being so closed off.
What will probably happen- out of the blue, even if you haven’t flirted with him, he’ll confess his feelings. And then I will cry 😭 And it will probably be after Casa, like he realized it while we were gone.
I just want to interact with Theo, have a cheeky flirt. That’s the whole point of the show and should also be front and center in the game. Fb is just lazy and can’t be bothered to branch their stories properly anymore. We had more interaction with Noah for goodness sakes, or even Seb and Nicky, even though we were just friends. So we’re left with Theo crumbs for now 😢🤲
Thanks for the ask, nonny!! 💗💗

Seeing you go from a Theo girlie or a Kyle girlie is amazing because I love when you go expecting to romance someone only for your plans to be derailed by another LI. Ahaha who doesn't love a good surprise, eh😂?
Also, I am living for your Kyle appreciation posts. Everyone is so into Max (nothing against him. I just like Kyle more) Sometimes I feel lonely because Kyle is cute, even when he makes me reset the volume to lie to Jin so I can stay with him👉👈.
Aaahhh nonny, the struggle is real!! 😂 I was dead set on doing a Theo route, and then Kyle swept me off my feet 🥰🫠 I can honestly say, this season has been FULL of pleasant surprises, my head turning being the biggest one. I can’t think of when that’s ever really happened to me before, and by a Casa boy?! I’m loving it!
Feel free to talk/sCReAm/SHOUT/whisper to me about Kyle all you want! I know there’s other Kyle stans with us, so we gotta stick together. And we will support each other for lying to Jin (or whatever other OG LI) because being in a proper couple with Kyle is worth it!! 😘🫶💕
Thanks so much for the ask!🙏😊💗
*Also, I am definitely replaying for Theo and probably other islanders, too. It’s exciting to have a season that has so many great LIs 😍🎊

3, 6, and 13!
Thanks, Sarah! I was going to write something mushy about you, but there’s too many things I could go on about. You’re a star and I love you 💗💗
3. What do you love about fanworks in the fandom?
I answered this here

YOU and all the friends I’ve made. I can’t believe I only joined the fandom this year! I feel like we’ve all been friends for ages.
13. What's your favourite moment during your time in the fandom?
One of my favorite moments was the S6 boys taking over tumblr. And Roberto calling AB a hat 👒🤣

I half expected theo to deny the kiss so I was pleasantly surprised that he went along with it
I would’ve been SO mad if he didn’t participate. Kinda bummed we couldn’t even pick him for the date, though. Once upon a time, they let us pick Noah for a date! Ugh, guess I should be grateful for the kiss 😘
We’re in this together, nonny! 💞

I don’t think I’d mind that theo is a slow burn as long as we don’t have to wait as long as we did with ozzy to couple up. I don’t think I can watch him and claudia being cute until then😩
Tumblr media
For real, friend. I’ve survived Noah and Ozzy (and some others I probably shouldn’t have), but PLEASE let us have Theo sooner. Not too soon, though 😂 I’m here for FTL if fb can pull it off 🥰
It’s SO hard watching him being all cute with Claudia. It hurts us 😭 And if Theo says “If you were my sister” again, I’m gonna yeet my phone 😒

Hello! Ozzy Stan here, now prepare your clown makeup with me 🤡 because we're in for an emotional rollercoaster here whilst giving clown emoji vibes
Anyway, so obviously wtf was movie night AS A WHOLE I'm proud of fusebox for finally for once giving us chaos, drama etc we deserved it.
Anyway regarding the Ozzy situation, I don't get why everyone is so pressed over the 3 way kiss and skinny dipping scenario... I stayed loyal in my casa playthrough BUT I know from reading other posts that there was the option for us to skinny dip on the beach date, plus n2 to do bits with Andy or go all the way in the hideaway I'm sure, now if you weren't loyal and were a bit of a cheeky minx how can we all be mad at Oz?
Now we know Oz doesn't do meaningless relationships/connections if you're on an Ozzy route all the convos with islanders who've left etc will reiterate that actually Ozzy does have a lot of feelings for MC BUT now hear me out here, we never got told WHAT our postcard showed US doing, so if you were a devil 😉 in casa and got your groove on at all that could've been in the postcard and that may be why his head was a bit screwed for one of a better word?
I honestly can't gripe it tbh, he owned it, he didn't lie and told us what happened, now had he have lied I'd have been pretty pissed, but I genuinely have faith that Ozzy will be the most damn loyal person to mc when we eventually get to couple up he doesn't strike me as a man whore, he never tried it on with any bombshells at all, until casa and at that point they had no clue we were waiting on him
Tumblr media
Ok, now that I’ve put my clown mask on… 🤡
I’m right there with you. Honestly, it was a bit of a shock to hear about Ozzy’s shenanigans HOWEVER I’m not too pressed about it. We weren’t in a couple and MC had so many chances to be naughty in a Casa. I am curious if MC messed around more if they show that on Movie Night, cuz I can’t even remember my clip it was so boring 😪
I’m sure the postcard was made to look like the girls were having just as much fun as we were led to believe the boys were. And I think Grace and Ozzy needed some big dramatic moment to finally break up because fb has been dragging their “relationship” out for so long.
And I agree with you- when he and MC finally chat about the incident after needlessly talking to the other boys (I hate that they keep making us do that), Ozzy 💯 owns up to it. If we had found out about it on Movie Night I would have been pissed, but he confessed and apologized.
I still love him. We’re in this together 🤝🙌💗💗

hii 🥺👉🏽👈🏽 I'm curious on your opinion on something from the Ozzy route.
I'm doing a research run right now, and I was wondering what you thought about him rekindling Grace's hope after MC's fake dumping, then not calling things off with Grace as soon as he could've? (I've shared my thoughts on it here)
I've just found it hard to wrap my head around on my own, and it's been difficult because I do like his character otherwise 🥺
Oof, yeah, that was brutal 😭 I have my own headcanon for why Ozzy behaved the way he did, but ultimately the reason is poor, lazy writing with no branching. Unfortunately, fb wrote a lot of his actions/dialogue so it would be the same if you romance him or not. There’s variation, sure, but you didn’t have to unlock his route and it has become abundantly clear in recent seasons that our choices don’t matter. So whether you plant a big smooch on him when you get “dumped” or you turned him down flat, his immediate reaction post Casa is basically the same, with maybe an extra meaningful look. Boo.
My headcanon is this- we know Ozzy is indecisive and takes things slow. And he’s driven by doing what’s right or respectful of his partner, which is Grace. So his head is turning to MC pre-Casa; they’re vibing, and he’s definitely shown that he’s more into MC than his partner, but Grace hasn’t given up. Ozzy is torn between what he thinks is the right thing to do and his heart. Then MC gets fake dumped and he’s devastated. He and Grace chat about continuing but his heart’s not in it. Then Casa happens and he’s left with a rocky partnership and a broken heart. So the infamous threeway kiss happens, which pushes him further into a guilt spiral. But he still thinks he needs to do the right thing and stick with Grace so she isn’t dumped. He’s finally made a decision and then MC is back. But he can’t put it in reverse, so he follows through with Grace, until he can properly chat with MC and see where her head’s at.
Fb blew it with MC’s reveal, too. Saying the boys saw her on the postcard was so anticlimactic. So let’s say that did happen- they probably showed MC kissing or flirting with one of the boys, causing Ozzy to doubt if what they had was real. Another reason for him to stick with Grace so he doesn’t look like a fool if MC returns with a Casa boy.
So that’s my excuses for his behavior 😅 But I’m an Ozzy apologist through and through. Even if his actions don’t make sense, I believe at his core he desperately wants to do the right thing, if he can figure out what that is. And ultimately he does, it just takes him a while to get there.
Thanks so much for the ask, lovely! 😘💕

Congrats! I hate how hypocrite the girls are considering they did far worse but fuck that noise, Kyle is worth it 😤!
Tho this reminds me of when some fans used to manipulate the girls vote in S2 to make Lucas/Henrik to stay 😂.
Yay!!! Thanks, nonny 💕 And urgh the girls 😖 But you’re right! We’ve had to work the system before to get what we want, and Kyle’s worth it 🥰
Thanks so much for the ask!! 😘💗
