Tropes Draft #1: Apocalypse

Hi there! My friends @nakedmonkey, @smashingmagicklovely, @fat-fem-and-asian, and @harrietdyker played a game on Discord this week where we drafted a cast for a film based on common tropes in an apocalypse story, and now we're looking to settle a winner via poll! See short synopses of each movie under cut, but, of course, you're welcome just to vote based on vibes alone! At the end of the week, we'll reveal whose film was which.

[01.] sarah snook and ayo edebiri star in indie zombie drama ALL OF THE MEN ARE DEAD. snook plays alice, a world weary survivor trying to locate her younger sibling lachlan (liv hewson), who vanished after a fight. she rescues lost survivors brianna (ayo edebiri) and her younger sister lily (violet mcgraw), along with their dog tiger (DITTO THE DOG ! #1 on the call sheet) from a horde of zombies. In return, brianna says that she met lachlan a few weeks ago and directed them to the safe zone her mother zoya (sheryl lee ralph) leads before getting separated. she offers alice the same safety if they find their way back. despite her growing fondness for lily, alice can't shake a feeling of unease with her new companions. how does brianna know these lands so well? how did lily know alice's name? why did they leave the safe zone at all?

[02.] At Rainbow House, everyone is welcome and treated like family. At least, that’s what Eleanor Glass (Academy Award nominee Sigourney Weaver) and her wife Marcia (Academy Award winner Allison Janney) intended when they opened their LGBTQ youth center, which is under existential threat by the ominous corporation CTOA, headed by Maxwell Price (Academy Award nominee Colman Domingo). Now, in the aftermath of a nuclear apocalypse, Eleanor and Marcia have made efforts to turn the center into a safe house for all those who lost everything. Alongside longtime program director Charlie (Academy Award winner Ian McKellen) and Eleanor’s street-smart protege Sunny (Emmy winner Zendaya), they work tirelessly to protect everyone - even as CTOA continues its efforts to dismantle the organization. But when Price and his daughter Ashlyn (Emmy nominee Jenna Ortega) show up seeking shelter, Eleanor and Marcia must choose between their commitment to welcoming everyone as equals and their fight with Maxwell Price. Sunny’s secret relationship with Ashlyn complicates matters further, not to mention the possibility that CTOA had more to do with this nuclear fallout than anyone could have expected. Nominated for 4 Academy Awards including Best Original Screenplay and Best Actress (Weaver), Everyone’s Inn is a bold tale about love, found family, and the secrets we keep.

[03.] The Letum Project: In a near distant future, the lethal Letum Virus that targets both the developmental and nervous systems simultaneously is turning victims into distorted, violent walking corpses, and is running rampant, dismantling societal infrastructures at a rapid pace and wreaking havoc on a global scale. A team of elite medical professionals, spearheaded by Dr. Freya Wright (Olivia Colman) and partner Dr. August Beck (Mads Mikkelsen), has been working tirelessly in an underground facility to find a cure for the past 10 months, but an unexpected death in the team brings into question what the motivation behind the project really is. Propelled by the mysterious and tragic death of her wife and fellow researcher, Allison Harris (Rebecca Hall), and the unexplained disappearance of friend and mentor, Dr. Amelia Bailey (Harriet Walker), Dr. Greta Harris (Dagmara Dominczyk) embarks on a rogue quest to find answers along with colleague and famed vascular neurologist, Gabrielle Gomez (Gina Torres). What they find above ground is a nightmarish scene; entire towns of infected people left to rot in now fenced zones, while survivors now live off of rationed food and essentials in a highly militarized state, the rich prioritized over the poor. But those aren’t the only truths Greta is forced to face. Allison and Gabrielle had been working alongside Amelia on a project they had kept from the rest of the team; a potential cure that might have been successful had Allison not found herself suddenly infected. Betrayed by the revelation, and now finding themselves hunted by Dr. Wright and Dr. Beck, Greta is left to wonder if there’s anyone left to trust. Aided only by sporadic morse code messages received through an old radio left to them by an anonymous source shortly before their escape from the facility, Greta and Gabrielle embark on a dangerous quest to find out.

[04.] Gödshead: A deadly virus has ravaged North America, leaving only sparse pockets of healthy populations behind in its wake: small towns and even smaller villages, family compounds, isolated homesteads surrounded by barbed wire fences. For years, former real estate agent Parker Kingston (Tawny Cypress) lived in such a protected home with her two daughters, the responsible Audrey (Jasmin Savoy-Brown) and the younger, far more rebellious Ryan (Amandla Stenberg), but the start of the film finds both Parker and Ryan reeling after a raider attack results in Audrey’s death and the sudden loss of their home. Grief-stricken, wounded, and utterly undone, mother and daughter must carry on anyway, taking sanctuary in a heavily walled village called Gödshead. Though their personal relationship is tumultuous, both Kingston women settle into something of a routine in the quaint village as they get to know its colorful denizens. They share a house with Dr. Hutchings (Paul Giamatti), a cantankerous but well-meaning history professor; Parker forges an intimate bond with Marnie Thompson (Samantha Sloyan), a kind if strangely fragile teacher who takes care of the village’s children while their parents work. They also get to know Mayor Willa Thompson (Frances McDormand), Marnie’s mother, whose stern but fair hand has ensured the village’s continued prosperity. But what exactly is the price of prosperity in an apocalypse? Parker and Ryan soon discover that there’s more to the village that lies beneath its seemingly peaceful surface—indeed that the trade-off for peace is a sacrifice that all citizens of Gödshead must be prepared to make. Winters are brutal in the mountains, and meat is scarce; there’s a lottery every winter in Gödshead, and everyone has a number.

[05.] The Sick: The zombie apocalypse did not end the world as we know it. Nobody knows how the infection works, who can pass it on and why, and what, exactly, it does to a person: they just know who is sick. They just know who to kill. When Claire (Romola Garai), an exhausted local news reporter, is assigned to report on Refuge, an organisation fighting to protect the hunted sick, she finds out her best friend, the good-hearted Raul (Diego Luna), has been a part of the organisation for months now, but she does not get to confront him about it before he strangely dies. Claire takes it upon herself to get his latest case, the young and funny Layla (Hunter Schafer) to safety in his honor. With the help of Raul’s boss, the eccentric Eddie (Ncuti Gatwa), they go on a cross-country journey towards the shelter built by Refuge. But on their way, Claire’s investigative tendencies can’t let go of the feeling that Eddie is hiding something, and Layla is getting sicker, worried for her companions’ safety around her. It’s a rest-stop encounter with Harper (Harriet Dyer) that gives Claire her answers and Layla the opportunity to protect her friends: a former colleague of Eddie, left to die by Eddie after getting infected, Harper, now part of a resistance organisation fighting for liberation of the sick, is out for revenge, but revenge is not as clear-cut a thing as people think. She tries to convince Layla to abandon Claire and Eddie’s shelter idea and join her, because Eddie can’t be trusted and Claire is too naive. And if Claire was not conflicted enough about the discovery, Raul’s cousin, the mysterious Mateo (Vico Ortiz), who blames Eddie for Raul’s death, is working with Harper, and tries to convince Claire to join the revolution, too, so she won’t die in it.

DO YOU HAVE KIDS?: no.

WHAT SPORTS DO YOU PLAY/HAVE YOU PLAYED?: I played basketball in second grade and have not touched a single sport since.

SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS?: tbh a melancholy ending usually hits more for me. and I’m trying to build up a scary movie tolerance but I’m still not quite there yet.

[visualarchive-avorah]

Tumblr shipname for Ava Daniels/Deborah Vance from Hacks HBO:

Avorah

Reblog to spread the word!

It was a close thing in the end between Avorah and AvaDeb, but while AvaDeb currently seems to be used a bit more frequently on tumblr, Avorah has also been tagged a lot, and is apparently the most popular option on other sites - and it won the poll of course!

Why decide on a shipname at all?

First of all, to name this blog! I'll try to collect all art and edits of the two, if you have any I haven't reblogged yet, feel free to send them over/ @ the blog, if someone wants to help mod, just send an ask!

But also, it's a lot easier to find new posts when everyone uses the same shipname, so you won't have to enter ten or more variations until you're sure you've seen all posts! So it's clever both for those of us who just want to look at and reblog them, and for the artists it's of course neat to know which tag will get most people to look at their posts!

You can of course still use other shipnames in your posts and use other tags as well and no-one can be forced to use a particular tag at all, but using #Avorah as one of the searchable tags (20 tags per tumblr post) on posts you make for the ship would be cool :)

My friend and I went to see Saltburn and went in completely blind (typically we read the whole storyline prior to going). We were not expecting all of that. We agreed that Choices™️ were made that we wouldn’t have made ourselves, haha.

So interested to hear your thoughts if you want to share 🩷

Oh gosh, yeah, haha, I feel like going in blind must've been a bit of a shock.

I kinda knew what to expect because a friend of mine had already told me it was 'if Talented Mr Ripley was dumb' and I'd seen a bit of the press for it so was expecting certain scenes, and look - - I was just commenting to @nakedmonkey, but I do think the worst crime a movie can commit is to be boring, and I don't think it was boring, so it had that going for it at the very least, haha.

Some of the performances were fun (Rosamund Pike in particular is always great), but overall, I just think it was just a really shallow film that was less interested in character arcs or relationships than it was in shock value. It flirted with these rich themes of class and race, power, attraction and intimacy, control and freedom, and it just chose the cheap shot every time. It was more interested in making the audience gasp or cringe than it was in actually having the characters evolve or devolve in a way that - - y'know, told a compelling story, and any shift in a dynamic was handled so limply that it had no real emotional impact.

I don't know. I still had enough fun watching it (my cinema was packed and the audience skewed pretty young, and their response was hilarious), but I just ultimately don't think it had as much to say as it pretended it did.

#the cousin being biracial and born of scandal and trying to get back in was particularly weakly handled tbh #you could tell ef just wasn't particularly interested in exploring the nuances of the different dynamics #also to pretend j*cob el*rdi has an ounce of the beauty talent and charisma as 1999 jude law... #honestly too it confirmed for me i don't love linus sandgen as a dop/cinematographer either #i find his style as lacking here as i did on la la land and american hustle #and i think the only time he's visually interesting or meaningful is when he's imitating other cinematographers #which is wild because i feel like this should've and could've been visually sumptuous and layered #and yet... #of course a part of that is ef's direction too #film asks #definitely low on my 2023 movie list #not the lowest though haha

Please tell us about the rockstar au!

hi anon! thank u for asking - tbh i don't know very much. i think it's like this nebulous concept that exists in the hearts and souls of shivlina lovers. it did start with this post by the supremely talented @/jeniffercheck of rockstar karolina and journalist shiv! @/harrietdyker @/nakedmonkey (TWO FANTASTIC WRITERS MWAH) and I have also been spinning out about it for the past day (i cheer them on from the sidelines lmao they're doing most of it) and there seems to be 2 loose plots - rockstar shiv and a tour manager karolina have a falling out and 5 years later they're reuniting to destroy waystar royco (who's traded theme parks for a music monopoly).

rockstar shiv and independent journalist karolina who fall in love when karolina joins their tour to write a piece on shiv <3 can kinda be combined w/ the previous prompt it's all v loose and also not mine in any sense! just a fun AU w/ a lot of potential :) i'm personally really interested in where the rest of the roys fit in (ken the music lover esp) and logan (i can't shut up about how he views shiv as a product first and his daughter when its convenient). also the band is a girl group w/ shiv as lead vocals and girlnate on drums and naomi pierce on bass <3 additionally harrietdyker made a FANTASTIC playlist i must recommend - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5Qq58NELx4qAaXorW6CCEY?si=4a05f10437b941b9

#asks #nothing more precious to me than the shivlina girls #go follow all of these ppl for amazing stuff! #sorry did not want to @ anyone either ksldsj this is just a little ask #for visuals i suggest dag in rockstar and snook in not suitable for children :) #my posts #rockstar au

ao3 stats game!

tagged by @reginaldbright . ao3 is back up (bless), let's do this.

Rules: Give us the links to your wonderful words with the Most hits, Most kudos, Most comments, Most bookmarks, Most words, and Least words.

Most hits, most words and most bookmarks: All Our Gifts at Once, or, the Young Sea-Man, a Sherlock/John Victorian AU that is also a realist retelling of The Little Mermaid. I started it almost exactly ten years ago (one week from today!) and finished it in late 2014, but I'm still very proud of this one -- it had several layers of ambition and I think I mostly pulled them all off. (It's also my only proper multichapter, which is surely part of the hit count.)

Most kudos: The Thought That Counts, also Sherlock, written for an exchange and much fluffier than my usual. I remain convinced the reason this one took off is that @moonblossom reblogged it right after I posted it.

Most comments: God Rest Ye Sleuthy, Gentlemen, an advent collection of drabbles and 221bs. (Also Sherlock.)

fourth-most hits and kudos (yes this is extremely stupid, but I would like to get at least one [1] fic on here that is not Sherlock): The Words That Other People Say. Jessica Jones, Jessica/Trish. This is a precanon story about the year Trish goes away to college. I wrote it post S1 and it was profoundly jossed by S2 (which, like: is that supposed to happen with precanon stuff? anyhow)

Least words: So the thing about being in Sherlock fandom for so long is that I have many, many fics that are 221 words. My shortest fic that it not the product of deliberate formal constraints is Foiled, a silly little holiday-ish gen fic about John Watson trying to pick up a Jewish police officer and getting razzed by Sherlock when he mucks it up.

winner in all categories in my current (tiny) fandom: Always In This Twilight, Margo/Sergei, minor canon divergence, set at the 1991 IAC. (technically The Path is about 150 words longer, but AITT is way out ahead in all the other categories.)

If anyone else is interested in doing this, please consider yourself tagged, and tag me so that I see it! I love this shit. I am also deliberately tagging @porcupine-girl , @destinationtoast , @nicehatgeorgia, @a-still-small-vox , @daerienn , @clydethistles , @discordantwords , @nakedmonkey, and @kedgeree11 .
