Superstar Matt Sturniolo x Reader Headcanons
Tumblr media
Fans would catch him in the crowd signing at the top of his lungs and recording you with the biggest smile on his face.
He would be the subject of every single one of your love songs and he would love it so much. There would definitely be a slow song that makes his eyes water every time he hears it.
He would be so supportive. Heā€™d wear your merch, repost your announcements, repost fan vids of you on tour, and do silly lipsync tiktoks with his brother to promote your music.
When you were performing at an awards show, the camera would pan to him and he would be singing his heart out and dancing along.
When you won an award, he'd give you a hug and kiss (rare affection) and help you up the stairs to the stage to make sure you didn't fall. When you thank him in your speech, he'd have to bite the inside of his cheek to stop himself from crying.
There would be edits all over tiktok of you both cut to one of your songs and he would like every single one of them.
He would tell you how proud he was of you every night he was on tour and, if he wasnā€™t there, heā€™d send you a text or a voice note to let you know.
When it was time for you to perform, Matt would walk with you to the stage and tell you how amazing you were going to be and how proud he was of you. He would take your phone and kiss you right before you went on.
He would become friends with your band, background singers, tour crew, etc.
He would love sitting in the car with you as you played him your new music. He would get so hype and be so so so supportive.
He would join you on tour any chance that he got and Laura would help them to plan their tour dates around yours so he could be in the same city as often as possible.
He would drive you to the studio any time of day and stay with you even if the session went all night. He would make sure you had food and water and have the biggest smile on his face because he would be so proud of you.
He would hype up your album/single when it was released without you even asking.
He would send you pictures of people in your merch, your album any time he saw it and your billboards whenever he drove past one to show you how proud he was.
Matt, Nick and Chris would do goofy little lipsyncs to your music for tiktok anytime you released new music.
Whenever fans saw you both out and about, he would offer to take pictures of them and you. He would never make you feel like it was a burden and he would be endlessly supportive.
He would love coming on the road with you even if it mean youā€™d need to cram into a bunk. Heā€™d just love being with you no matter the circumstances.
He would surprise you on tour when you were feeling overwhelmed even if it meant he could only stay for a few hours. Heā€™d do all he can to make you feel better before he had to leave.
He would want to watch your whole show but, make sure to run backstage to meet you when you got off stage with a hug and a kiss and a spiel of how proud he was.
No matter where you were, he would alway reach for your hand. In crowds, he keep an arm around you wait to make sure he can protect you from the chaos and keep you safe.
On tour he would do all he can to make your hotel room feel like home and he would also plan cute little dates in every city you were in so he could spend some 1:1 time with you.
Whenever he was asked about you in an interview or by a fan, heā€™d always say ā€œI love her so much, sheā€™s doing an amazing job. Iā€™m just so proud of herā€ with the biggest smile on his face.
He would find any way that he could to bring you up in conversation in a car video of a podcast.
He would always send you the sweetest voice messages and you might even find a way to include one in one of your songs.
Matt would be in the backstage footage of your tour that your post to IG, tiktok or YouTube. He would be smiling at you in awe, bringing your bands/team coffee, joking with your drummer, holding the door open for your backup singers, helping you do up your shoe, carrying you when you feet hurt.
Of course, Nick and Chris would be super supportive as well. Theyā€™d definitely be in the crowd with Matt signing at the top of their lungs.

Bangtan Weekly Report
Been a while. How are ya? We got a lot of shit going on and it has not been easy keeping up. I'll be glad when they are back together in 2025 so we can rest. Lol. Just kidding... I guess.
In a few hours we get Golden. I am excited to hear what Jungkook's chosen for his first album. I am excited to hear him explore these genres of songs. I am sure he's learned a lot during this process just as all the others have. He did a pre-release "press conference" and here is Dispatch's video of it: Watch Kookie's interview here.
Tumblr media
He was very poised and articulate... dare I say "mature"? He is doing well. I'm very proud of Jungkook. He and his dance team are very excited to show us what they've created. I'm sure it will be amazing.
He mentioned a future Korean song as a gift? Don't tell me he means his gift to us before he leaves for MS...
šŸ˜­
Taemin with Jimin special appearance on Suchwita. Finally watched. The dynamic between Jimin and Taemin and Jimin and Yoongi was fascinating.
Tumblr media
I don't know a lot about Taemin. Of course I've seen he and Jimin's performance from a while back. Taemin is a great performer. He seems like a very sincere person.
Jimin's Dior campaign.
Tumblr media
So lovely that we finally get to see him in motion. Ever since Hobi's LV campaign with the bags, I've been wanting to see Dior or Tiffany take advantage of Jimin's fluid motion and FINALLY they woke up and showed him moving. Not a fan of the oversized knit vests but those suits are wonderful.
Namjoon... Mr. Black Void for an IG pfp... showing us some images from his trip to London.
Tumblr media
Fun fact: That Kodak Portra 400 35mm film is anywhere from $15-$25 per roll of film... then you have to pay to have it developed.
Tumblr media
His hair is dark in the image... not taken while he was in London... but when? Japan? That sand looks black. Ibusuki Beach? Except for that ship out there... hmmm.
His documentary will be coming down the line at some point, it will be jam-packed with his meanderings from these past two years. Maybe we'll find out where he's been.
The BTS documentary will be out in December. Our Christmas present. I'm looking forward to it. There will be new footage in it.
Tae channeling him some Elvis for Celine is interesting. I suppose this is from an upcoming campaign or magazine spread.
Tumblr media
And this was shared with us.
Tumblr media
Jung Hoseok achieving his Corporal promotion ahead of time which I think means he would have three bars on his shirt pocket instead of the two as in this photo from his IG.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Less than a year left until Hobi's discharged and 7.5 months left before Jin is discharged.
It was the anniversary of The Astronaut this week. Can't believe this year just flew by. The reluctance to wish time to fly by but at the same time wanting it to slow down in order to live in the moment...we were so worried this time last year. We are making it through this ya'll. We are getting there.
Samsung campaign giving us Yoongi in tan pants. Doing god's work if you ask me:
Tumblr media
Xylitol also keeping the Bangtan flame lit ...
Tumblr media
How come Jimin and Jungkook are the only ones with their left hands in their pockets? Jikook always jikooking. You are me I am you is strong with them.

if uā€™re still doing theseā€¦ top 5 most insane martian moments.
Sry for the late response, I really had to think on it! But these have been pretty fun to do so thank you!! <3
1. The entirety of Monaco 2010
Any Monaco celebration has a special place in my heart as you probably well know! But just Monaco 2010 as an entirety is insane to me, to name a few: the matching Porsches...their parc ferme hug...Seb trying and failing to pull Mark into the pool...them jumping into the harbor together and Seb having to pull Mark up onto the dock, MONACO REALLY GAVE US SO MUCH šŸ¤§ but also this race being the calm before the storm, like seeing them be all cute with each other but then knowing how the season ends and how things continue to proceed after that
2. Their Singapore 2008 date
Always holds a special place on my heart. Just that we have so many pictures and even footage(!!!) of their PR mandated date in a time where this kind of thing wasn't really common yet. The caption of the YouTube vid "Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel share an evening in Singapore" šŸ˜µā€šŸ’« and I also think often about this comment on that vid calling Seb a "kleine MƤdchen." I just think it's very cute. Giggly STR Seb and older gruff RBR Mark, not yet affected by teammate tensions
3. Japan 2007
I think its always very interesting the foreshadowing you can read into while watching older races. I love that Martian were always on an inevitable collision course. Like imagine being Mark and that rookie who crashed into the back of you then goes to win a race before you and then becomes your teammate and then becomes wdc. That they were on this collision course before they even became teammates and Seb had barely been in the sport yet. And LIKE that quote from Mark about Seb about "kids with no experience" and Seb crying in his garage, crazy.
4. Turkey 2010
I have such a fondness for "WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING HERE!? WHAT A STUPID ACTION! I'M GOING HOME! FUCK YOU!"(to the point where my friends who know nothing about f1 know about that quote by proxy bcs I quote it so much") I think it's interesting how much Martian's conflicts revolve around team orders and disobeying radios. It's funny bcs in Turkey 2009, a very similar situation to both Turkey 2010 and Malaysia 2013 happens, them telling Seb to stay behind Mark bcs of whatever reasons. And in 2009, Seb is clearly šŸ«¤ about it but obeys but then goes on to try to overtake Mark in 2010 and fails, but then succeeds in 2013, very interesting to see how that dynamic evolves and grows more toxic! But by far the best part about Turkey 2010 is them having to take that "Us in our Get-Along T-Shirt" pic šŸ˜­ it's so funny and I wish they'd do press releases like this nowadays
Tumblr media
5. That Monaco 2021 interview where Mark interjects about knowing the meaning behind the coins in Seb's race boots
It's just very sweet to me. There's some post about it on here that explains how meaningful it is, but I don't feel like searching for it, so I'm kinda just paraphrasing that. But like imagine them having a conversation where Seb explains it to Mark and the meaning behind it, and like probably a decade later, Mark still remembers it in perfect detail, enough to remember about the specificities about which coin goes in which boot and why.
Obligatory mentions: Malaysia 2013 of course(but I wanted to mention others, but Multi-21 is a given when considering crazy Martian moments), Australia 2016 podium, Mark's various Instagram forays during Seb's retirement, that one interview where Mark grabs Seb from behind while Love Will Tear Us Apart plays, when Seb sat on Mark's shoulders, anything of them from Abu Dhabi 2022, etc etc
#okay this post is a lot longer than i thought itd be#i had to hold myself back from adding pictures to everything i just tried to put a lot of links instead!#i almost finished making this and then tumblr glitched and i thought it deleted all of it#but it just posted it so i privated it but hopefully it will still show up to people!#this was fun to make bcs i was brought back to my early days of learning their lore(not that im ever finished tbh)#also if you hadnt guessed my favorite season is 2010(cough cough heard you're a player)#but intense teammate rivalries like theirs is so interesting#youre fighting for the wdc and wcc so you're forced to constantly be fighting for yourself but still have to consider the team as a whole#and as I mentioned i love the progression of Martian#guy who crashed into you and ruined your race in 2007 then wins a race before you for your JUNIOR team#then he becomes your teammate and scores the first win for YOUR team that youve already been in for 2 seasons#and then hes your main rival in the next season and he wins the wdc at the last race before you#and then you have to watch him win the next 3 WDCs and meanwhile theres so many interteam tension#and then you retire and you become very fond for each other and have very cute interviews until his very retirement#OKAY SORRY THAT WAS SO MUCH LMAO#ive been so sebson brained lately so its fun to think about martian!!!#also dru if you see this tysm your blog was super helpful for finding stuff from specific events hehehe#martian#sebmark#formula 1#catie.asks.

The Rookie 518 specumalation...
SO. MANY. THOUGHTS.
UC Chenford is like, my absolute favourite thing, and seeing Jake and Sava againā€¦. Urgh, itā€™s bringing back all the memories of last summer (the good parts, obvs - the theories and the creativity and the crazinessā€¦)
I donā€™t usually like to speculate on episodes - I just like to let them happen. No point getting bogged down or upset if things donā€™t happen the way youā€™d like, and as a community, we can often get caught up in little details that just make us mad at one another šŸ¤Æ.
THAT SAID, I have no problem doing *fun guessing*, or wondering how certain teasers connect. And since we have a hiatus and this is my favourite subject, letā€™s go down the rabbit holeā€¦
Tumblr media
I actually originally thought they may have taken the clips of Lucyā€™s interview in the station from last yearā€™s Real Crime ep, but I checked and they did not (different lighting and angles). This is a part where Iā€™m not majorly interested in guessing, but perhaps they do not interview Tim at the start, to keep up the fear factor, so Lucy is interviewed on her own. Followed by her and Tim interviewed at her apartment when itā€™s revealed heā€™s not dead. Or perhaps heā€™s there beside her and itā€™s just cropped. Not a spec to worry about either way.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Who the redhead is with Tim and Aaron, or why thereā€™s a puff of smoke, I have no idea. But Tim looks good.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
NOW.
This is where it gets interesting.
I think Jake gets out of jail (see barbed wire and ā€œthis is a high securityā€ sign), and that the lovely image weā€™re all fainting over is actually really Jake and Sava, not UC Tim and Lucy, or any version of Dim and Juicy. Iā€™m interested to see if Jake has lost weight too, or if his fling with the waitress in Vegas is brought upā€¦
There are a few possibilities here, but I think, basically, thereā€™s an issue between Jake and the guy we see him beating up in the alley. I canā€™t tell if Jake is really dead, or if the death is a setup by LAPD (if itā€™s a setup, I want happy Jake and Sava in the sunset afterwards šŸŒ‡). It could be some kind of triple cross con, where they pretend they think Tim is dead, but it turns out to be fake Jake. Meanwhile, real Jake is safe somewhere and he meets Sava at the end.Ā 
Tumblr media
Anyway, heā€™s probably really dead (which is very, very sad šŸ˜­) and the story weā€™re left with is Lucy going UC as Sava to figure it out. Meanwhile, real Sava is bopping around on her own, devastated by the death of her OTL. (ā€˜Boppingā€™ and ā€˜devastatedā€™ should not be used to describe the same moment of time for a character, but here we are. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø) I think Lopez and Harper take her into the station to tell her about Jakeā€™s death and, maybe, put her into protection for Lucy to go UC.
Tumblr media
I think Sava on the bench meeting Beard Guy is actually Lucy, and I canā€™t be fully sure if Beard Guy is also Alleyway Guy. Possibly. But surely there are more characters involved.
Tumblr media
The spoken lines are cut up all over the place. Listen with good speakers, donā€™t watch the picture, and youā€™ll hear it. Iā€™m not fully convinced that just because ā€œTim just disappearedā€ sounds slightly English means itā€™s Sava. When Lopez and Harper meet (probably) Sava in the beginning, she doesnā€™t have an English accent there.Ā 
Because of that, I have no inkling whether thatā€™s Lucy or Sava. The only thing is, at the porch, she has her phone out, and the Lucy in the car crash does too. Thatā€™s obviously to facilitate the footage for the documentary, but Iā€™m feeling slightly more like it might be Sava because of that.
I donā€™t know at what point the car crash fits into anything. I canā€™t tell if itā€™s Lucy or Sava, and the clothes and hair donā€™t match any of the other images we have of her. I think something hits her from behind while sheā€™s on a video call, and I think she might be in the front passengerā€™s seat, but thatā€™s all I can tell from that.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OKAY OKAY, NOW.
The most interesting bit! (According to me!)
What the hell is that massive house?!
Tumblr media
Thereā€™s no way itā€™s Jake and Savaā€™s, so it might be something to do with Alleyway/Beard Guy (slash Jakeā€™s murderer?!). Itā€™s unlikely to be connected to the redhead lady scene, because Tim no longer has his vest on, and the neighbourhood looks entirely different. Either way, Tim and Sava/Lucy are not alone in there.
When Tim finds the secret door, someone is filming (perhaps Aaronā€™s bodycam/Savaā€™s phone?) and a third person appears in front of Tim - you get a split second of their hand. So itā€™s not like heā€™s hanging out alone, babysitting a grieving Sava, however interesting that might be.
Tumblr media
My (second!) favourite thing from this promo was something I missed entirely on every other viewing, until I took the screencaps for this essay. THEREā€™S A HIDDEN ROOM FULL OF TREASURE. Or something. Probably something more boring, like notes, or art, or a dead body.
Tumblr media
Maybe Jake was involved in some sort of heist for this stuff, got killed, LAPD got involved, Lucy goes UC as Sava, while Sava helps out on the LAPD side. Something goes wrong for Lucy (car crash?) and the team have to follow their own leads. Sava gives them this house address and they find the secret passage, but Tim falls through some sort of trap door. He may find the secret room on his own, or maybe they find it together.
Add to all this that set decorator and gentle spoiler man, William DeBiasio hinted that one or other of Chenford are in danger in this episode (just trust me - the tweet tree is too big to repost at this stage!), and the remaining one is worried about them. Because we hear ā€œTim just disappearedā€, and because nothing bad has happened to him so far in the series, Iā€™ve been assuming that the bad thing would happen to him. But really, it would make more sense if it happened to Lucy (back to the car crash/UC issue).
And then it would be Tim taking care of Lucy at her apartment. And since we see the cameras when Sava arrives at the station, Lucy's uniformed interview could be before the op takes place, while the interview at her apartment is afterwards.
Tumblr media
Eric Winter was also asked in a cameo message why Lucy would do a documentary about UC, and thus broadcast her face to any potential criminals. He said ā€œitā€™s all explainedā€ in the episode.
Tumblr media
Myself, I have a constant little racket in my head that reminds me ā€œlight drama, light drama, light dramaā€. The Rookie is not a very serious show, and we let a lot of inconsistencies slide. Iā€™ve been letting the True Crime episodes exist outside reality, and just donā€™t think very deeply about how they affect the ongoing plot. I also love the True Crime episodes, and I cannot understand why people donā€™t! (You are completely allowed to not like them, Iā€™m just letting you know where I stand!)
So with Eric saying Lucy talking in public about UC is ā€œexplainedā€, Iā€™m wondering if something happensā€¦ like she gives up on UC? Iā€™ve not been one of the people who thinks she dislikes it. I never got that feeling from her character. But maybe something in this episode changes her mind; or maybe Iā€™ve been misreading her feelings.
Then again, it may be as simple as - someone uploaded her picture online (at the crash, or somewhere else public). Or Sava was broadcasting the whole thing (and thatā€™s why we keep seeing her on her phone). So Lucyā€™s face (as Sava) is already out there, and it doesnā€™t matter in the context of this documentary.
--ETA-- Jake's clothes in the sunset gif are, I think, exactly what he was wearing when Tim and Lucy arrested him, giving more credence to the Jake & Sava theory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
--end ETA-- ANYWAY.
As you may be able to tell by now, I am super, super, SUPER excited about this ep. Some of my favourite bits of everything are going to be in it, and the only cherry that could make it even better would be some form of Chenford kiss. Imagine, less than one season on from 422, and Iā€™m feeling deprived that we havenā€™t had a kiss in the last few episodes (goddamn that bug the actors got after 512ā€¦ā€¦)
Now that Iā€™ve typed this thesis, watch someone drop a new promo/spoiler that completely negates the entire thing.
WOOHOO, FANGIRLING.

JO Survey: What's a favorite JO moment of yours? Could be very small or something big
There were too many good answers in the questions with open answers in my Joker Out Survey, so below the cut are the answers to Question no. 14: What's a favorite JO moment of yours? Could be very small or something big
When bojan exists but also when they sung the boys are back from HSM in an interview in all the languages
Nace & Bojan completing my heart hands thing at a concert :) (& Nace showing the heart on his bass in my direction )
sparklative, the turtle interview, every interaction between jan and nace (it's hard to pick a favourite)
It's so hard to choose! Aside from repeating what I said before, I'll say I love them doing stuff with pride flags during concerts, and them hanging out together during Novi Val. Also them just wearing each others clothes. And the whole thing with Because of You during Eurovision. And Bojan singing Cha Cha Cha. And Tavastia. And Kris during the Katrina video whirling around his jacket. Ok I can't choose and I can go on forever.
When Nace started talking about his turtles
kris being a hater šŸ«¶
how dare you make me pick one smh i guess the performance of novi val in Glasgow with the pride flag i dotn get emotional about artists raising pride flags in general even tho im queer but that specific moment in a CHURCH with THAT song made me sob
I can't choose so I've got 3: 1. WHY THIS HAS BEEN SO HAS BIVEN SPARKLY?! SPARKLING?! SPARKLATIVE?!?!?! 2. the interview where they talk about Nace's turtles ("shiiiit, they don't like to be pet!") 3. every time Bojan and Kris banter with each other šŸ˜­ and I saw this irl too when I was at their concert in London and Kris wouldn't stop playing his guitar whilst Bojan was trying to tune his
I've really enjoyed watching the behind the scenes video series' from Eurovision and the tour.
It's a tie between (i) pretty much any interview they've ever done and (ii) the Cvetličarna concert (didn't attend but have watched the footage)
Them comforting KƤƤrijƤ together after his loss
Bojan's thighs lol
I really like drunk Kris at Barcelona preparty screaming "OH, SSF!" and dancing like the tall tree he is šŸ¤£ā¤ļøā€šŸ”„
Their joy in eurovision
"Sparklative"
The moment that Jan signed my jacket
Jan and Nace interacting on stage
Idk i love all the behind the scenes videos?
Them all singing together (see carpe diem series ep 7 amsterdam :D)
The backstage series
The Electric Ballroom gig in London & their reaction when Slovenia entered the grand final at ESC
Jan and Nace playing kazoos in the UK tour ep 2
You expect me to chose?? /j
Every Novi val performance.
anything Jan and Nace get up to tbh
Every moment in that "joker out being bros for 5 min straight" video or wtv or was called. Need friendships like that fr
don't know if it's my favorite moment per se but i do love how they all immeadiately fell in love with jere (kƤƤrijƤ), especially bojan ofc <3
Why has been so sparkling? āœØ
Bojan draped in a pride flag in an old church while singing novi val. Top 3 moments to cry about at 3am tbh
The performance of Novi Val in Križanke. Also, this is not a JO moment as such, but a clip where Bojan imitates a german kid telling his mom he wants to jump on the trampoline(?) I'm sorry, but man's funny as fuck, I think about that clip often.
I haven't seen them live yet, so all the best moments are yet to come :)
All of them cuddles
I donā€™t knoww Maček in a box
kris tilting his head back, eurovision in my city, SEEING THEIR TOUR BUS IN LIVERPOOL WJEN ME AND MY FRIEND WERE OUT IN THE CITY CENTER THE DAY AFTER WE SAW THEM @ MANCHESTER
I don't know yet - there's so many moments! So many smiles and like laying their heads on each others shoulders during concerts and looking out for each other. <3
I liked how promptly they got rid of gregor on a serious level and also on a happy level when they qualified to the Eurovision final
cvetličarna
Bojan and Kaarijaā€™s bromance
I don't know to many options
Love how often TURTOL is brought up. Nace would be proud <3

Jikook Dynamics Through The Years: 2015 Pt 2
Tumblr media
The previous posts for 2012 - 2015 can be found in my masterlist under Jikook Dynamics as well as I'll link them here for you. These few months in 2015 is when things that things really starting becoming more... interesting between them. Lots happening. Something important to keep in mind that I'll be sharing moments, AND my personal opinions, along with facts. My opinions are my own. You can agree or disagree. I encourage you to go and check it all out, see this content for yourself as well and form your own opinions during this time frame too. I will be splitting this up into multiple different posts probably to manage the length and be able to add more links/photos in each post. But also keep in mind this is not EVERY jikook moment from this year. I'll only be including moments that I personally want to and feel like it's worth drawing attention to and commenting on. This is long. I'm sorry! Part 2 will be covering May and June of 2015.
šŸ¾
May kicks off with strong with a jikook selca on Twitter! Thanking ARMY for being there for I Need U promotions and saying they are having fun, even though it's only been 2 day! This selca comes from them being special MCs together. Which you can watch here.
Tumblr media
Bonus. Also on May 1st is a dubsmash video from JK. Not jikook related. But too cute not to include lol
150505 The Show airs an interview with BTS about their I Need U MV. They rewatch the MV and talk about it. Jimin states he wants to burn away weight and stress. JK gives him a funny look when he says weight before agreeing with stress. JK also shouts JIMINSSI as he does when Jimin's childhood photo is shown. Also lots of cute giggles here from everyone. This was filmed earlier, and also on this day, they had a live radio broadcast interview. Which was the infamous interview where Jimin gets asked why he likes JK so much and Tae says that he thinks Jimin just likes men šŸ˜… Lol You can read my full post over that moment HERE.
The after-school club special show happens this day, 150505, as well. Very busy these guys were! Highly recommend watching it if you haven't. Jikook sit next to each other in the front. Lots of cute little interactions with them and with everyone. JK clearly has a lot of energy this episode. I'm not going to talk about everything (just watch it!) I'll just highlight a few answers given. Everyone picked Jimin as the member they want to take on a Rollercoaster ride. Lol Jimin named JK as his bag boy. Clearly JK does a lot of carrying things for Jimin. šŸ¤£ Jungkook in this episode too also named Jimin as the member who helps him relieve stress. Jimin is at this point clearly someone who JK feels very comfortable around, can be vulnerable with and feel safe expressing those stressors and finding help in moving past them or dealing with them. JK also this episode made funny faces at Jimin a few times in an effort to make him laugh.
šŸ¾
150506, BTS perform at Show Champion. Performance here. And they release a few days later the Show Champion Backstage Footage. Which includes 10 minutes of cuteness. Including jikook being cute and close, including talking about boxing together and being very playful and teasing about Jimin's abs too. JK was in a tease my hyungs mood that day for sure lmfao
šŸ¾
150507, BTS' first win with I Need U. And its a video that emotional as hell šŸ˜­ As for jikookery, Jimin got very emotional and ended up not wanting to be on camera while he was crying. JK noticed and tried to lend him comfort over it all before Jimin walked off to collect himself alone for a bit. Namjoon, JK and Hobi all comforting Jimin in the elevator after too šŸ„ŗ
youtube
150508, the morning kicks off with Jimin sharing posts of vminkook and puppies šŸ„° and much later in the evening of the day, Jimin posts 3 more times to twt, thanking ARMYs many times for their award. He posts selcas with every member. With Tae, with Sope, with Jungkook Jin and RM. We also see them on this day heading off to music bank in matching fits.
šŸ¾
150510, BTS appears on Changmin's Gayo Plaza radio show. Jikook sat next to each other. During the radio show they all mention how they recently moved into a bigger dorm room! Before that, they were all in the single room. Now in this new room they had the roommates of Yoonjin, VhopeMin and Namkook. With them pointing out that JK often just slept in the living room too. Lol when asked about singing and dancing live at the same time, RM said JM and JK should answer. JK hedged around a bit and said because they had 7 members to spilt parts up, it wasn't THAT hard. And Jimin cut him off going "I ALMOST DIED!" With everyone's giggles. They also all talked about how they relieved stress. JK basically said he doesn't get stressed, doesn't know how to recognize that. And Jimin talked about how he doesn't know how to relieve stress and how he likes food, but also needs to lose weight and so he basically does nothing. There is alot more happening in this interview worth watching as well, but honestly it's just a good insight into their mental whereabouts during this time and things going on in their lives. New dorm. Busy lives. Jimin struggling a bit stress wise. JK struggling a bit with vulnerability in my opinion, especially around other people/cameras. Jimin didn't talk too much and JK had a hard time sitting still through the interview, but it was a good one and they all had good energy with the host and each other through it.

Also on the 10th, A safe driving commercial was released. Has nothing to do with jikook, but anyone who hasn't seen it really needs to. Lol as well as JK posting a dubsmash video to twt. On the 10th as well, they depart from the airport to go to Kota Kinabalu to film Summer Package 2015. You can read my post over that here. Lol also a cute aside bonus link.... Taekook got lost at the airport. šŸ˜…šŸ˜‚ They are there from the 10th through the 13th. On the 13th before they leave, JK posts another dubsmash. And Jikook film a log in the hotel room together late at night. One they were just hanging out in, not their own. JK was rooming with Tae and Jimin with Yoongi during that trip. So they were just choosing to chill together šŸ’œ short and cute:
youtube
On 150515 they held a fansign and jikook had quite a few cute moments. Including Jimin telling everyone that JK hugs him when he sleeps. Cueing a flustered JK trying to deny everything. Lol my post for that here.
šŸ¾
Jumping forward 5 days to the next fansign in Ilsan on 150520, jikook once again sit next to each other and have a quite few playful moments (an example). But my favorite would be when Jimin got up to pretend to be a fan and JK reached up and tickled his chin. And looked so proud of himself. Lol and Jimin lost his mind, the definition of shook. Here is a video of the moment. Jimin was literally so taken aback. Lol couldn't stop smiling and saying things like "he just touched my chin! He's never done that before." And JK also could not stop grinning. Babies šŸ„ŗ
Tumblr media
On 150524, JK recommends a song by Kehlani called You should be Here, an openly queer artist. On 150526, JK recommends a song on Twitter called Can't Help Falling In Love by the Eels. He ends up recommending quite a few songs by them over the years. But for this song, he has it stopped on the lyrics, "If I can't help falling in love with you." Only 15 seconds into the song according to his screenshot. Relatable to his life at the moment or just a song he was vibing with? Who knows.... including it anyway.
šŸ¾
On 150527, they are on YamanTV. This one well it feels like hosts are incredibly cringy though BTS handled it well. Its funny in lots of moments, but cringey in lots too. I don't think you'd ever catch them doing a similar type of interview at the fame level they are at in recenf years. Lol This is one where I will say watch if you want, but no pressure if you just want to catch the highlight round clips since it's so long and a bit cringe. Lol jikook highlight clips for those who want to only watch those.... 21:27 Jimin enjoys JKs muscles/forearms. 25:00, jikook arm wrestle. And Part 2 of YamanTV. Both these parts were released in June, but filmed on this day in May. And again, for those who want to just watch specific clips where I'll highlight jikookery.... 1:30ish in, For Jimins segement, his keyword is "pervert" and one of the hosts makes a play on words joke with "pervert" vs "coming out" and says that Jimin is coming out for his segement. Jimin did NOT seem to find this funny at all (don't blame him) and while everyone else laughs and plays it off. Jimin and JK are the only ones who do not. Jimin turns it around to the members. Calls out Hobi as a "pervert" for stroking his body while he sleeps. Jimin then also says JK is also a "pervert" and JK seems a bit nervous about where that is going and Jimin makes a joke about all the cosmetics JK owns with "women scents" since he is sensitive to smell. Which JK didn't really seem to appreciate that too much either. And finally RM for downloading, um "corn" on the computer. 10:30ish in, JK confirms that he is indeed, an ass man. "Touching the members butts before going on stage calms his nerves." Lol and 28ish in, Jimin gets nervous about having to do some funny improv but gets more confident when JK shares out about how "Jimins good at this!"
Tumblr media
On 150530, to end May off with a tweet from Jimin thanking ARMYs and talking about finishing up their last broadcast. Posted with 2 jikook selcas. And to end off my links I'm going to include for the month of May.... at some point during this month, they filmed all 5 episodes of the Bukbolbuk games they played. You can read about the jikook moments from those here.
šŸ¾
To kick off June, on 150603 they do an MWave meet and greet livestream. Jimin seems to be having a somewhat off day. Just a bit moody or grumpy with his members. It's a cute livestream though. Jimin picks the jikook spread from the photobook as his favorite, but didn't really give an answer as to why. Just said they took the photos, seemingly shy/annoyed to be asked. Towards the end, RM also asks Jungkook if he likes girls in bikinis. To which Jimin seems incredibly annoyed by the question and says "people don't really think of us as men." And JK answered by simply saying "I know everything I need to know about bikinis." Which is quite the brush off answer from JK, very dismissive of *liking* girls in bikinis. And quite a bit of annoyance from Jimin. Wonder what's going on with him this day, or what's bothering him....
šŸ¾
And then one of my favorites! 150605, BTS are in Malaysia and do a media interview. There isn't much honestly recording wise of this unfortunately. But one of my favorite interview jikook answers pops up here. The MC asks them all to describe the member next to them. So the order went: V, Suga, Jin, RM, JK, JM, Hope, V. Everyone gave copious amounts of compliments, as they often do with this question. And JK unprompted, said he would date Jimin. Lol this wasn't a MC question of which member would you date. JK volunteered that information out of left field. You can find this trans thread of all the members answers. Notice the difference please. As well as a recording of them saying it. And Jimins response to JK šŸ„ŗ shook. Translation here and it deserves its own photo. Out of pocket!!
Tumblr media
On 150606, after rehersals they get ice-cream and in the bangtan bomb we see JK feed Jimin bites of ice cream off his spoon looking very fond as well. Jimins cute reaction to the yummy food is adorable too.
šŸ¾
On the 8th their Festa profiles were released. They did both profiles written by other members and by themselves. So you can find my post over the profiles written by other members here. Namjoon wrote JKs profile. And JK wrote Jimins. Where he correlated Jimin to a love song and also complimented his looks in all of the ways. šŸ˜ you can find their self written profiles here. Jimin and JK both list RM as their number one subunit want. Jimin making his a trio with namgi and himself. Jimin also listed a jikook subunit as his number 2. He also said that the song that describes himself the most at that time was Dear No One by Tori Kelley. A song JK also ends up singing/saying he likes a different time. You can find the rest of the Festa content here. And then on the 11th, we of course have the Festa Radio Show!
youtube
There is ALOT we could talk about honestly in this video, but I'm going to keep it as short as possible here (and yall know me... that's never very short). Mostly there were just lots of small random touching to just touch. Lots of staring happening, lots and lots of giggles and tons of teasing through the whole video between the 2 of them. Including JK proving once again he knows obscure Jimin Facts while teasing him over it a bit too. Post over JK teasing Jimin about Brian Puspos Here. And how everyone teased JK for raising his hand during the question "I like my roommate, but sometimes I envy other rooms/want to room with someone else." His reasoning was that sometimes Joon is too messy and he likes the other rooms too. Wonder whose room and what he liked?? Tae (rooming with Jihope) also raised his hand for this. Lol it was supposed to be anonymous but JK gave himself away and Jimin kept slapping his shoulder/chest and giving him head pats in fondness as he laughed at JK. Lol Everyone also teases Jimin for leaving wet bandanas in the bathroom after showering. (I don't get it Jimin, is it a pseudo washcloth?!) JK says he is like real hip hop. Namjoon says his (Jimins) taste is enchanting, but he used the Korean word which could be a euphemism for kinky. Lol he also said maybe Jimin can take photos just using the collar from the shirt on his naked body (literally what lmfao) and JK goes "that's cool." Yeah, sure is *cool" JK. And Jimin is just dying laughing as everyone teases him before denying things and ending the conversation. They all also tease JK about being a) a muscle pig b) collecting cosmetics and c) being impossible to wake up in the mornings. Lol and towards the end (54ish minutes in) JK starts randomly circling and stroking Jimins finger with his hand?? Lol idk what the thought process there was other than a want to touch? A desire to play with Jimins cute fingers.
Tumblr media
Lol there is also an entire discussion during this Festa about JK very much insisting he is an adult now (and he is and got his ID) and everyone was teasing, asking if he got the idea or not and why he wouldn't let them see it. JK saying yes he got it, because he is an adult now and no because he hates the photo. Lol and once again, Jimin is sitting out of the group teasing JK about something he does to all of them. Not letting them see his new ID.... not answering their calls or texts.... his need for many mattresses/house decor.... we know JK answers Jimins phone calls... seems like Jimin knows more about the ID possibly too. Perhaps he DID get to see it. Lol not that important, but still an interesting difference.
youtube
There are no English subs for the 150612 Naver starcast video that i can find.... but it's essentially just 30 minutes of BTS playing games, Jimin enjoying himself and Jungkook literally melting into a giant puddle of goo and love and fondness watching Jimin laugh and smile. Literally watches him for most of the video and this looks like the DEFINITION of "holy crap, I really f**king like this guy. Oh my god, my heart." The heart eyes. MY HEART. The gifs and clips are iconic for most jikookers lol
šŸ¾
On the 17th they were on Weekly Idol, and I'll just share the unpretty dance portion. Lol their reactions to each other's dance šŸ˜… Jimin getting stopped early because he "shakes his hips too much for their viewer rating" šŸ¤£šŸ¤£
Tumblr media
150619, they do the NicoNico Live Broadcast in Japan to promote their For You single. It's about an hour long and truly a wonderful little video worth watching if you've never seen it. This is honestly a good example of when BTS does fanservice. Lol for anyone confused on what might count or not, here is an example. Very cute interview though for the most part too. It was all about the red string of fate. Please watch it. Maybe I'll make a post about the whole thing one day. Eventually they get told they will do romantic partner poses together in pairs. Lmao Jimin visibly cringes about that. Not a fan of fanservice, our man. Jimin and RM get paired up and Jimin gets so adorably flustered through the whole process šŸ¤£ Hopekook get paired up and Jimin catcalls them and tells them to kiss šŸ¤£ Hopekook decide on doing a piggyback for their romantic pose lol. Later they each pulled on ends of a red string to find a partner to play a game where they had to move a ball around by holding it between their faces with no hands. Lol Jimin doesn't get a partner at first and in an effort to let him get a chance to win, he wanted to try. Everyone except JK complains about having to try to play again. JK just sets up the ropes to see who will end up playing with him lol. JK when asked about his own red string of fate, refuses to say who he thinks it's connected to and when asked about long distance, JK says he couldn't do long distance. Jimin says no one in BTS would probably want to do long distance. When asked about how one can express their feelings and say things like "i like you" to someone when they are really shy, how would they do it. Everyone insisted Jimin answer it since he is also really shy and the most shy. Lol Jimin gets flustered and goes "I don't know either! You guys tell me!!" And JK looks at him so fondly. And Jins answer to that was super sweet too. Watch this interview!! BTS Japan Twt posted afterwards a group photo after the broadcast. JK is sitting in Jimins lap pretty much šŸ„°
Tumblr media
At some point in June or whenever jikook died their hair lol, they filmed Dope as well. You can find my thoughts over part of the making film from memories in this post here. And you can watch the BTS episode making film from YouTube here too. Naver StarCast also released an article with behind the scenes photos from when they were making the MV. Which includes some police officer roleplaying (maybe, hard to tell from photos lol) from jikook. And the makes this Twitter video extra sus was the fact that it got deleted. Jimin or Jungkook posted this video of them to Twitter or fancafe (I don't remember) from when they were filming the Dope MV.... making kissy faces at the camera and then JK leaning to kiss the camera, but going all the way over to kiss where JIMIN is standing in the camera frame. šŸ‘€ and then it was deleted.... so think of that whatever you decide lol
Tumblr media
Some point between the 20th and the 23rd, they filmed Run BTS episodes 1 -2 as well. Also filmed right around that same time was Gayo Tracks 1 - 2 also. On 150623, they filmed Run BTS Episode 5, which you can read my post over here. As well as on this day, they filmed the reaction to their Dope MV. Which was just Jimin and Jhope. I won't say too much, but you could make it a drinking game... how many times does Jimin call Jungkook handsome in 5 minutes? And at some in the middle of June, they also filmed Run BTS Episode 4 and Episode 6. (Episode 3 was filmed in July)
youtube
On 150625 they perform on Mcountdown for Dope and have a Q&A backstage with fan questions on sticky notes. There is a lot of chest slapping happening this video from everyone. Lol Jimin looks horrified yet still finding it funny when JK eats one of the sticky notes. šŸ˜† (literally why...) and at one point Jimin gets answered as who is the main character of the Dope MV. And so then JK holds onto him with one arm as he repeatedly slaps Jimins chest with the other hand along with all the other members. Lol
šŸ¾
150627, JK posts a twt video of Jimin sleeping. With the caption "Aigoo our hyung-nim is sleeping well. What could he be dreaming about..." and on 150628, Jimin posts a response to the video with his own tweet.... and a translation here where he addressed JK calling him hyungnim lol He also posted a jikook selca thanking ARMY. Also on this day, JK posts another song recommendation, this one called Love Me Again, stopped on the lyrics "could you love me again" lots of love songs being recommended recently. Just his taste or his taste at the moment for a reason? šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø A Bangtan Bomb was also filmed this day where we see JK film said sleeping Jimin from the first tweet. Lol
youtube
150630, warm up interview video. Around 6:30ish in, JK holds Jimin from behind by the waist very cutely. Jimin starts acting up and being silly, but JK just hangs out there for a good 20 seconds just holding him. Lol Also on the 30th, Jimin posts to Twitter with the caption, thank you, 600 photos. And posts screenshots of jikook and jimin selca spam in his camera folder. Lol
Tumblr media
And that wraps up part 2 for May & June 2015! Due to the winning poll, I'm posting this part early, with only 2 months in it rather than 4. Not every moment was included, more just so the ones I personally felt like were ones more worthy of calling attention to and spoke to their bond. I'm not including every skinship moment or playful moment or moment where they looked at each other. Lol and my opinions are littered throughout these posts too.
Overall, I truly think this is the start of a 2015 dynamic shift coming up soon. I think that Jimin is a little more infatuated, I think he is perhaps noticing JK as an adult more this year, particularly these past 2 months. Noticing how he is finding Jungkook attractive and seemingly in more than just the friendly compliments way. JK is starting to really crush hard in some ways it seems. It looks like he is really started to test the waters a bit on what his feelings are and open up to them more. If that all makes sense. I'm not going to say TOO much, because honestly, the next 2 months are when it starts really getting good. Lol
That's all just my personal opinion though. You are all free to agree or disagree with any or one of it! ThanksĀ  for letting me share, and again, sorry this is so long! If you read it all know I appreciate you lots! And again, if some of the timing is a smidge off for when the moments were actually filmed rather than released, I'm doing my best! Lol Thanks again! Part 3 will be next and that will include July and August 2015!

Hey :)
I'm still good, but I don't really know what the future holds but I'm getting therešŸ™ˆ
I don't have a song right now but a small plot idea or something šŸ˜…
Max and Charles are childhood besties but never showed it because of the rivalry. They met up in private and chat all night or watch movies. They always had crushes on each other and got together after Max won in 2021. After that they talked more openly in the paddock and people notice obviously but only say that they finally start to become friends.
In one of the races Charles has a big shunt and hits a wall. He isn't moving and Max freaks out Max just parks the car to get to his love. Max helped Charles out of the car and hugged him so tight. Obviously people talk but he doesn't care. That's the love of his life, his best friend, his soulmate. Charles would've done the same.
Afterwards, because Max isn't allowed to start again he goes with Charles to the medical center and never leaves his side. In the interviews Max clings to Charles and the press asks about it. He obviously doesn't want to out them, not yet at least so he just says: "That's my best friend and I can't imagine losing him."
They're closer than ever afterwards and show a bit more affection towards each other openly. After they retire they come out with a picture of them on their wedding a few years back with their two kids.
Hii,
Ah, no worries, a cute story idea is always good!šŸ„°
But before I get there Iā€™m trying to figure if I have adhd, and I am waaay to old to get a diagnosis just by now, but oh well but it might help fixing my chronic insomnia and explain my hypersensitivity šŸ˜­ that would be great to be honest.
And the story idea is sooo lovely! I can totally imagine Max panicking and trying to get close to the car, and call out for Charles and not like he thinks of it but looking back at the footage he is so glad his helmet was on and the utter panic didnā€™t show. He would try his best not to bother the marshals, but he would constantly ask them, what was going on, if Charles was awake, how he was injured etc. (he would be like when my cat gave birth to her kittens in the dogā€™s house and I tried to save the kittens by putting them in a shoe box and taking them to safety while mama cat was meowing loudly and circling around me with the most worried cat expression I ever saw, anyway)
When Charles is finally, after agonising minutes is out of the car, he is heavily concussed, and needs two marshals to hold him up on his feet until he can be laid on a stretcher, but he sees Max and even trough the think and slippery feeling fog in his brain he reaches out for him, and Max steps closer carefully wrapping his arms around Charles, who mumbles: baby I am okay. But trough his helmet it is barely audible to Max too.
So when Charles is in the ambulance car Max walks back to his car, but it is also damaged, no way he could start the race over. Not like he could give his everything, when his everything is injured and his state is not stable. So when he is back at the garage, he rushes to the medical station, Charles is already prepared to be lifted in the helicopter to his take him to the hospital to further checks. There is Arthur and Lorenzo who obviously know about their relationship, and they try to sympathetically give Max a pat on the shoulder or a half-hug whiteout exposing too much to the cameras,. They also try to shield them them when Max finally gets to talk with Charles, his pretty face looks as handsome as ever maybe a bit more tired and drained. The signs of his concussion are showing making Maxā€™s heart clench. He doesnā€™t even think when he grabs the freckled hand, trying to say the words without outing themselves to the whole world. ā€˜Please, take care of him.ā€™ He asks Lorenzo who climbs into the helicopter to escort Charles to the hospital.
Until he is back Max tries his best to act normal but it is almost impossible. He tried to distract himself but makes Arthur swear he would let him know when Charles is back. Thankfully it doesnā€™t take long, the brunette is dismissed from the hospital after some checks and X-rays, and he returns to the paddock on wobbly legs and a tired smile, Lorenzo supporting him. Max rushes out of the red bull hospitality, immediately finding the worn out brunette, he hugs him tight maybe a bit too tight for all the cameras around but he couldnā€™t care. After that he is the one walking around with Charles, he already gave all the interviews. He is not letting the smaller man out of his arms not for a second, he makes sure Charles drinks plenty, and sits down in any given time he doesnā€™t absolutely have to stand. ā€˜People are staring Maxy.ā€™ Charles canā€™t protest and doesnā€™t even want to too much but he canā€™t help but notice the looks around them.
And Max off doesnā€™t care. ā€˜Not like Iā€™m kissing you in front of the cameras. Iā€™m just supporting an injured friend.ā€™
ā€˜I wish we werenā€™t here and you were kissing me.ā€™ And Charles wish finally comes true when they are in his car, Arthur driving, Max pulling him in for a quick kiss at the backseat. And there is so much in that kiss.
After that the internet is full with all the speculation, with all the images of them hugging, of Max holding him like holding onto dear life, looking at him like Charles is the one and only reason for his existence. But the teams or the drivers are not saying a thing, so Max sometimes puts his arm around Charles when they are just talking or greets the brunette with a hug in the paddock, it is bold but he couldnā€™t have it any other way. He need to know Charles is safe beside him, that he is there for real. After a few races the speculations die down, the press finds something else to focus on, the drivers howeverā€¦
Daniel and Pierre are the firsts finding out. Daniel simply puts two and two together while Pierre catches Max and Charles make out in front of the brunetteā€™s apartment when he arrives to a game night too early. Then Carlos catches up first teasing Charles with the seemingly sudden attention of Max, then he quickly realises it is entirely two sided even if Charles is less of a PDA person, he often stands at drivers parade with his pinky touching Max on the bar of the bus, or that they just stand awfully close to each other, and Charles never protests when Max puts his arm around his wait instead of his back on podium pictures. Then slowly a few others, but word never gets out.
Years later Charles is caught walking on the shores in Monaco with two little girls toddling next to him, twins, the girls scream when they see Max, canā€™t wait to hug their Papa. They adopted them and did a very good job hiding it from the public, retirement ofc making it easier. But it feels like about time and Charles quickly snaps a picture of the four of them posting it later with their engagement and wedding pictures. ā€˜years later, happy anniversary, Cheri.ā€™ The caption is cheesy but it is what it is and Max quickly replies with the same wedding pictures, and pictures of Charles when they first brought home their daughters. He only puts a small caption about their anniversary, he is still not much fan of social media. It becomes a mess, with various pages picking it up, their old teams trying to stay on top of the situation, but the most insufferable are the drivers in the comment section revealing they knew about it all along. Itā€™s sweet but so much. Then an official page places a post with their pictures on that day when Charles crashed and Max was glued to his side even days after. The caption says we told you so.
The end took an interesting turn lol. If I get the emotional range and time on my hands Iā€™d loooove to write some angsty story with an accident and the aftermath like this. šŸ„ŗ thank you for sending me this. šŸ’•

what are the best phil ochs books/documentaries in ur opinion?
well there are really only four big ones in total so i'll just give my opinions on all of them :) for books:
there but for fortune - i personally much prefer this one, i think it's a pretty solid/mostly accurate biography that's well written, and if you're looking to read a phil ochs biography i would recommend this one! in terms of quality of writing + accuracy i think this book is the much better option
death of a rebel - i really did not like this book, to the point where i had to make myself read the second half in one sitting just to get it over with šŸ˜­ i read a lot of biographies and i'm just not a fan of the style this one was written in, with lots of made up dialogue almost like a fictional story. it felt really dramatized and tabloid-y to me, and it seemed to focus unnecessarily on his flaws/more miserable years. obviously you've got to include the facts in a biography, but i think it's one thing to tell the harder truths, and another to really linger and lean into those rougher stories in order to tell a more dramatic story, which is how this book felt. personally i found that it felt a bit exploitative, and i also know that it's got a bit of misinformation in it. all this being said, i know some people did quite enjoy it, and if you ever do read it, i would just take specific details with a grain of salt!
for documentaries:
there but for fortune (no relation to the book) - i forever have mixed feelings on this one. for starters, at times it feels a bit more like a documentary on the 60s in general rather than phil's life + his work. it's not very thorough, and i really don't like how it leaves off on his death without any sort of conclusion about his legacy/whatnot. it makes the film feel very bleak, and i don't really like how it somewhat feels like the main takeaway is "look at how fucked up this guy's life was." with all this being said, there is some really great unreleased footage of interviews and whatnot that you can't find anywhere else in this one, and for this reason only i would say it's worth watching
chords of fame - this one is so low budget and cheesy but it has heart okay... you have to go into it with an open mind and acknowledge that you are watching a slightly bad documentary/biopic fusion from the 80s and then you can truly appreciate it. the choice to have the actor playing phil cover all of his songs up until the credits is certainly something but it's fun. also if you already know a bit about phil ochs/his life the interviews with his friends in this one are especially interesting!
okay this is so long i'm so sorry... and i'm sorry for being such a hater i tried to be positive but it's such slim pickings when it comes to phil ochs content. i think if i were less insane i might like some of these more but i care about phil ochs to such a religious extent that it pains me to see him misrepresented in any sort of way. my final statements are that 1) there but for fortune (book not movie) is the best out of all of these in my opinion and 2) i know a lot of people have enjoyed the books/films that i dislike so do not take my word as gospel ! okayy that's all<3

The Elvis Ask Game
thanks for the tag babe @missmaywemeetagain
When and what was your first exposure to Elvis Presley?
im not sure if this was actually my very first exposure or not but this the earliest memory i have lol idek if it really counts but when i first watched ā€˜forest gumpā€™ & they were saying he got his moves from forest. & then after that i remember hearing about him through ā€˜full houseā€™.
And what was your first impression?
i didnā€™t really think too much about him & itā€™s crazy bc iā€™m beyond obsessed now lol i never really dived into him or music until recently. i mean i always thought the way he danced was interesting LOL but yea all i knew about really was the basics, the dance moves, jumpsuits, the ā€˜Kingā€™ title, his connection to black culture & and his death. itā€™s insane bc i very recently found out that my mother was a HUGE elvis fan & i was so in shock bc she never played any of his music or mentioned him to me or around me. i was offended lmaoooo bc i couldā€™ve been had him in my lifešŸ˜­
Lace shirts or jumpsuits?
this is a very hard question bc baby the lace shirts?!?! especially when he tied up the bottom & showed a lil stomach?!?! pls. he was eating the gworls up. but also the jumpsuits. the fucking jumpsuits. he really did his big one w those. the tastešŸ¤ŒšŸ¾šŸ˜˜
You can steal one of Elvis/Austinā€™s outfits, whatā€™s it going to be?
sheesh. idk. it may just HAVE to be the leather suitā€¦ or maybe the outfit with the hat & the pink jacket from the merchandise scene. knowing me, iā€™ll probably wish i chose a different one when iā€™m scrolling on my feed lateršŸ˜‚
Cā€™mon, we know youā€™ve been watching/reading old interviews and random footage of the man, so whatā€™s your favorite random Elvis quote?
PLS itā€™s soooo many. iā€™ll list a few
-ā€˜if you donā€™t come back (take 3)ā€™ hes messing around singing then he goes ā€œi go crazy at 4 oā€™clock, you people never seen me. they have to put me in a straitjacketā€
-during the 68 comeback special singing ā€˜love me tenderā€™ he changed the words & says ā€œyou have made my life a wreck- uh completeā€
-during the 68 comeback special again, heā€™s telling the audience that the 2nd audience is coming in next and they get a little upset & he goes ā€œi just work hereā€
-one i ALWAYS catch myself saying now ā€œmy boy my boyā€ my dad asked me other day where i got that from & when i started saying itšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
itā€™s a lot more but thatā€™s just off the top of my head
Did you find Austin Butlerā€™s lips distracting despite them being in a movie about the King of plush upper lips? (Be honest now)
of COURSE i did. him as a whole was a little distractingšŸ¤£šŸ¤£
Whatā€™s an aspect of Elvisā€™ character you wish more people appreciated?
how loving he was. that man gave & gave & gave until he died. i wish the ppl that were in his life appreciated that instead of taking advantage of it. i 100% believe if those ppl really appreciated him like they say now then he would still be alive. iā€™ll leave it at that before i start crying
You meet Col. Tom Parker for the first time, forewarned with the knowledge of what a scumbag he is, what do you do?: A. nothing, youā€™re a coward who doesnā€™t care about abused golden-hearted men B. you give the Colonel a stern telling off C. you encourage Elvis to leave him and break the contract E. you slap a legal document against that fat suit and declare ā€œMrs. Claus is bringing you a lawsuitā€ F. you waste no time with formalities, itā€™s a letter opener to the juggler for that piece of trash
this depends on what point in elvis career weā€™re talking about here. id say iā€™d let him be until 58ish. i say this bc iā€™m not gon lie, he gave elvis the start he needed but 58 is when king creole came out & that was the last movie role of his i took seriousšŸ„“ i of course enjoyed the ones after that but itā€™s not the serious drama he wanted. he was given all bs roles & he wasnā€™t performing & making music he really enjoyed. i feel like from then on is when colonel started blatantly playing in his face. anyways, to actually answer the question, B C & E
What was your favorite aspect/scene from the Elvis 2022 movie?
fave scenes hands down, the vegas rehearsal & the trouble performance. i love love love the music that baz had created for this, that man is genius & everything fell into place perfectly.
itā€™s so many mixes that were such a small part of the movie that it wasnt released that i love SO much.
-i want jimmyā€™s elvis impersonation of ā€˜how do you think i feelā€™.
-i want that slowed down version of ā€˜thatā€™s all rightā€™ that ā€œbig boy crudupā€ sang
-the slowed down version of ā€˜thatā€™s all rightā€™ from when colonel first heard elvis
-the slowed down CRAWFISH?!?! pls i need that
thatā€™s just a few, i need EVERYthing
but i literally wouldnā€™t change a thing. the transitionsssss!!! so amazing. idk the movie was just so fucking perfect. i watched it over 20 times (over 10 in theatres)
You can choose only one song or piece of media to convince someone to become an Elvis fan, what is it going to be?
there is literally no way i can answer this & i refuse to stress myself out tryingšŸ¤£šŸ¤£ the way my fave elvis song changes every week?! pls, i wouldnā€™t know WHAT to put on. i would have that person there alllll damn day trying to convince them
How many children would you give Elvis Presley from your own -or theoretical- womb? (listen to the beast in ya, your feminism wonā€™t serve you here)
pls. i will never have the desire to raise a childšŸ¤£ even if i did, im too selfish & would want him all to myself anyways lmaoo
Where are you hanging out with EP, his bedroom with the teddy bears, Club Handy, his private jet or Graceland?
graceland for sure, real personal. i would say the bedroom but the teddy bears wouldā€™ve been too muchšŸ¤£ & i wouldnā€™t be the center of his attention at club handy LOL
What is the peak Elvis era? warning, this says an awful lot about youā€¦
oh late 68- early 70 EASY. top TIER. iā€™ll stand on that forever.
How long have you been an Austin Butler fan (be honest now, God is watching)
iā€™ve known of him for a good minute but i wasnā€™t actually a fan or even paid him any actual attention until Elvis movie.
What kind of Elvis chick are you? -a 1950ā€™s prospective wife material that heā€™s already sampled, a 1960ā€™s filmset fling or a Vegas torrid backstage affair?
ummmm can i make up my own & say 60s wife?šŸ˜‚ idkkkk filmset fling maybe? LOL
Is Austin Butler an honorary southerner now? Answer options: A. hell no, California can keep his sweet cheeks. B. hell yes, heā€™s practically been possessed by the soul of the King of the South
oh possessed for surešŸ˜‚ thatā€™s stuck w him for life now
Pick your poison in the fan-fiction realm: angst, fluff, smut, fluffy smut, angsty fluff, angsty smut?ā€¦or is reading about Elvis Presley an acknowledged health hazard?
angsty smut & smutty fluff. easy picks LOL
Spit or swallow for this man? (And if you donā€™t understand this question move right along)
PLS im SWALLOWING. is that even a question???
Would Gladys approve of you? Take your above answer into consideration
iā€™m cracking up, gladys wouldve NEVER known that side of me. now me as an actual person? idk LOL but based off my love for her son? she would approve & love me 100%
Which of Elvisā€™ cars is your favorite?
iā€™m not a car perso bc n at all so the pink cady just bc itā€™s my fave color.
What are your odds for besting this man at karate?
oh pls. none. at all. it wouldā€™ve been over for me REAL quick
If you could meet Elvis and have enough composure to tell him something, what would it be?
oh wow. ummmm. to sum it up(not going in detail bc iā€™ll start crying LOL) i would just let him know exactly how loved he is & how heā€™s still changing lives of millions
Whatā€™s the Elvis 2022 quote youā€™ve been mumbling to yourself ever since you heard it?
ā€œlet it all hang out EP, let it all hang outā€
ā€œbeen a long time babyā€
i repeat a lot of them very randomly but those are just two
What are your top 3 go-to Elvis songs?
as i was saying earlier, the answer to this changes pretty often lol but rn these are the ones iā€™ve been throwing on first (donā€™t confuse this list w my all time fave songs lol)
ā€˜after loving you (take 2)ā€™
ā€˜if you donā€™t come backā€™
ā€˜just pretend (midnight show)ā€™
If you could spare him one tragedy what would it be?
the death of his mother. no questions. i 100% believe SO much wouldā€™ve been avoided if she lived longer. elvis for SURE wouldā€™ve lived longer, canā€™t convince me any different.
Is there a modern artist that sorta scratches for you the itch that Elvisā€™ absence leaves?
no. LOL sorry not sorry. itā€™s one elvis & nobody gives me the feeling he does. literally.
How did you react at the end of the movie when In the Ghetto started to play A. I got up and fixed a snack because I have no soul, B. I left feeling alarmingly horny, C. I was impressed but didnā€™t realize how affected I was until days later when it was still with me D. I cried buckets they had to bring in a mop E. I may have appeared emotionless but in fact my soul was leaving my body and I donā€™t think itā€™s returned quite yet
D but at the same E? by the time in the ghetto comes on iā€™m still stuck & also upset that itā€™s over & instantly want to rewatch. i will quite literally never be the same after that movie. i canā€™t express enough how much it has affected my entire being. i never been so impacted in my life
This was much fun!! thanks again for tagging me to be apart of this @missmaywemeetagain
now idk who to tagggg. iā€™ll tag you friend @ooshhella hope you have as much fun as i didšŸ˜

Hey babes! Iā€™m here with my thoughts and things I noticed during Maxā€™s interview with Olav for Ziggo
The Miracles Happen interview with Max Verstappen
He has a new shirt!! And he looks so relaxed and happy and tiredšŸ˜‚ almost no sleep and very croaky voice toošŸ˜‚
Joking about the awful start he had and admitting it couldā€™ve been the nerves
Doesnā€™t completely understand why there was no penalty for Lewis after the whole leaving the track and gaining an advantage thing, the rules are the rules and the wdc shouldnā€™t be an influence on that
The fact that he tried to stay as close as possible has really been a big factor in him winning, cuz that created the option for free pitstops!
All the praise for Checo and his amazing defence šŸ„° thinks Checoā€™s defence was absurd, says it was hard racing and absolutely not dangerous driving
When he got the chance after the safety car to overtake Lewis, he really really put his teeth in it cuz he needed to get the most out of that opportunity. And of course the cramp storyšŸ˜‚ which also couldā€™ve been from the nerves and the stress
Watching Max get emotional seeing/hearing the footage of his radio, getting out of the car, with his team and his dad makes me emotional and then Olav hits us with this:
ā€˜This is what youā€™ve spent hours sitting in a van with your dad for, started in Gent, the Pex family standing there, Kelly standing there, everyone and everything standing (important) standing thereā€™
And Max is losing it and Olav is losing it and I am losing itšŸ˜­šŸ˜­ and heā€™s trying so hard not to break down
Saying Christian and Helmut keep the team balanced šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ and really just taking it race by race
Getting chills from the recap of Max vs Lewis
Just seeing him talk about Silverstone, it so clear in his face that that will stay with him for a long long timeā€¦
Joking about the Italy cursešŸ˜‚ but the team fucked up the race themselves with that pitstop, according to them, and the crash just made it even worse, which I find a very interesting and fair opinion from them
Little dig at the merc flexy wing in BrazilšŸ˜‚
The Jeddah circuit needs to be looked at for safety with next years slower cars according to MaxšŸ‘€ very sarcastic MaxyšŸ˜‚ and he really didnā€™t enjoy that race even a bitšŸ˜ž
Joking about giving Nicky trays with RedbullšŸ˜‚
Very honest about his mistake in the qualy in SaudišŸ‘ļæ½ļ潚Ÿ‘šŸ¼ and apparently we should be very glad that the car was even alright cuz it couldā€™ve been badšŸ‘€
Being surprised about how good a teammate checo is and that heā€™s a family man toošŸ„°
And only wanting to work with GPšŸ„°šŸ„° and he gets so happy talking about it šŸ„°
Thereā€™s something very sexy about him saying he decides the pitstops more than the team in some situationsā€¦
Not wanting to be the favourite in the team and wanting to start at zero every year šŸ„° and so happy with HondašŸ„°
He really doesnā€™t like the sprint races AND I AGREE, awful awful format
Heā€™s very excited about the Redbull powertrainsšŸ‘€ so now Iā€™m even more curious
I love seeing him so happy, open and relaxedšŸ„° Iā€™m so proud that I canā€™t even bring it into words properly, I actually canā€™t describe itšŸ§”šŸ§”šŸ§”

At this point I got busy for 1.5 weeks and am just now resuming the episode.
- oh nooooo I don't want them to nag Cap about why he's a fire fighter
- I know it's a show and that's why the film crew is at this scene but still hate them being at this scene
- another "and everyone clapped scene"
- I FUCKING HATE THIS BUG EATTING CONTEST BRUH WHAT THE FUCK
- oh nooooooo Bobby's gonna have weird kid feelings isn't he šŸ˜­
- sometimes I think Bobby's face is too flat/emotionless but also it just fits the character really well so whatever
- are we gonna get back to Buck's sister and her living alone anxiety? That's one of the first cold opens I've been super invested in, where's the follow up
- how are there no cars in that parking lot
- okay okay charley horse and his name being Charlie did make me laugh
- thank you Cap and Eddie for escorting the camera crew away
- BUCK PLEASE DONT GET WITH THE NEWS LADY AND PLEASE DONT TELL HER ANYTHING ABOUT BOBBY
- awww okay Buck loves his dad šŸ„ŗ
- "we're just here to make sure no story ends before it should" is a great line

- oh noooo she's so stressed!!!!
- it Always cracks me up how Maddie wears her trainee shirt to show more tits than any of the background characters

- DO NOT GO INTERROGATE CAP NASH WHILE HES ALONE AND EMOTIONAL
- nevermind Bobby has embraced a zen and dad like philosophical bullshit this is amazing

- GIRL FUCKING CALL THE ON CALL TRUCK, GET YOUR PRIORITIES IN ORDER
- can't do the third all caps in a row but the stilleto through face is WILD
- BITXH DONT YOU DARE WHOS BROOK HIM
- why would handcuffing them with police like metal cuffs be a good idea to prevent self damage? Cause I know those things can be really abrasive and bruising
- Athena and Hen's sunglasses are So Cool I want them So Much
- where the fuck did the spectators at the fire station come from???
- how many fire stations are in LA?
- okay it's actually super cool that they interviewed the people that were helped but also if the lizard lady doses the brownies/fudge that's Fucking Hilarious
- YALL CANNOT BE INVESTIGATING IN CIVVIES, PLEASE
- I wanna pet that kitty šŸ„ŗ Also this business is so far from ethical and maybe legal, it isn't even funny
- yesssss I deadass really hope Chimney gets with Maddie, they're my two favs rn
- HOLY SHIT SHE WANTED TO USE THE DOSED FOOTAGE?? BUCK GET OUT OF THERE, HER ETHICS DONT MEASURE UP TO YOURS
