Just checking.... We all pronounce Miette like My-TAY in our heads, right?

#wow #it has never once occured to me for one second that anyone would not know how this name is said #the -ette suffix is not uncommon in spoken English #absolutely wild to me that people have been saying this meme in their heads so wrong #sorry if I sound like a cunt i am just shocked

#look at the size of Jamie's legs compared to Roy’s

[scoatneyhall]

I have to admit I was SUPER curious about what the ACTUAL question being asked here was - like, whether he would be beat up for picking a footballer as a "hero"? (Not at all.) Whether he would be beat up specifically for coming in Chelsea kit in a Manchester school? (#1 I think he'd be savvy enough to come as Roy Kent England NT not Roy Kent Chelsea, but #2 it's not THAT weird to support clubs in other cities if he did have a Chelsea kit, and I am sure Jamie has always been one of the coolest kids in any room, he'd just be like "game recognise game and what about it.") Whether kids under the age of 10 beating each other up is normal? (No, and again, Jamie would have always been popular, so very unlikely to be bullied or picked on in younger-kid ways either, IMO.)

Book Week would have been the main dress up day for young kids when Jamie was in primary school, like 2000-2006, so maybe the main question is - would he have been one of those kids to flout the SPIRIT of Book Week and come as Roy Kent from the 2004 Premier League Annual, or whether he would have gone more in a King Peter from Narnia or a puppy from The Hundred and One Dalmatians or something from pre-TERF-reveal Harry Potter direction - as in, an actual book character.

Asking because you have so much england cultural knowledge - would tiny Jamie Tartt have worn Roy Kent uniform to school for a hero dress up day, or would he have gotten beat up for it?

Ok I actually never heard of hero day until this ask! after googling (and @ / scoatneyhall who's like google but better) I now know what it is, but it wouldn't have been A Thing when Jamie was in primary school. In general, I think schoolkids young enough that they're having dress up days at school are also too young to beat each other up, lol.

Short answer: nah. Longer answer: I don't think Jamie ever got beat up in school. Not an actual answer that nobody asked for: this is were Jamie most likely went to secondary school. Please look at their cute uniforms.

Jamie would NOT sleep with Roy's old chelsea shirt or whatever. Football kits are designed to sweat in and make for pretty uncomfortable sleepwear. I understand the spirit but he would NOT. There's plenty of football merch that actually makes for good leisurewear

#they're pure synthetic #this upsets me every time i see it in a fic #nobody is sleeping in a football shirt #nobody #shagging in it? sure. if you want. #but anyone who thinks jamie would sleep in one has never touched one #also they wouldn't be “faded” #again it's the kind of fabric that never changes state because it's basically plastic #also game kits are worn once only (then usually donated) #so they wouldn't get worn out enough to get faded and old feeling even if the fabric was less resilient #like i very much get what people are going for but it's so far from the reality of the garment and how it is used
