This week's @galladrabbles is based on the prompt "blur" from the lovely @callivich. <3

“You ever make someone cry before?”
He doesn’t know what made him say it. An attempt to be cocky, he guesses. To hide his discomfort and how desperately he’s not into getting his ass fucked by fake silicon dick. Now, hours later, alone in his room, he can’t stop thinking about it.
He’d brushed away the wetness gathering around Mickey’s eyes as he'd moved gently inside him, his own vision blurring with tears.
“I’m so proud of you,” he’d whispered, lips pressing softly against Mickey’s skin, bruised and broken.
I’ve seen every stan of a Shameless character act like their fave is perfect. From Mickey stans, to Fiona stans, to Lip stans, to IAN stans. Some of you just act like it’s a thing specific to Mickey stans because you’re mad he’s the most popular character 🤷♀️
i love how mickey came out and they were like, k whatever. they were more annoyed that he stopped the music/party. it's only his father being a cunt about it, literally no one cares go be free my child ;_;
It's nice ask week in the 911: lone Star fandom but I'm breaking containment to send you a nice ask about shameless!
What are your top five favorite episodes of Shameless?
Hi Rose!
Welcome, I hope you enjoy your time out of containment to discuss shameless!
1) 3x05: The Sins of My Caretaker: Gallavich’s first kiss! “Mickey you got shot” “yeah I fuckin know I got shot” “Ian… WHAT THE FUCK?!” Plus Debbie not reading the room and screaming about her day at the pool. It’s just such a funny episode!
2) 4x11: Emily:
Mickey coming out. “I just want everyone here to know that I’m fuckin gay, big ol’ mo”. “Is this where you wanna spend your day off?” “You’re here” gets me every time. Ian kissing Mickey’s forehead. Plus something not Gallavich related (shocker), Frank thinking he’s speaking to Fiona when he’s talking to Emily, it’s nice to see that deep down he does think about the kids… sometimes.
3) 5x06: Crazy Love:
Ofc I love this one for different reasons than the rest. Cameron’s acting is amazing. Mickey telling Ian he loves him for the first time on the phone. Little details like phone lock screens. “Can I go in with him?”.
4) 7x11: Happily Ever After:
Mickey looks extra hot. I love them having fun on the trip to Mexico. Let’s just ignore the ending :( side note, any recs for fics where Ian goes to Mexica with Mick?
5) 9x06: Face It, You’re Gorgeous:
I love Ian having his cozy day at home, the Carl stories! Mickey and Ian reunion. Pink+White
nothing can convince me that in some 4x11-esque way, frank was talking to franny and thinking of debbie. it wasn’t necessarily like 4x11, he knew it was franny and not debbie, but in his mind i firmly believe he was looking at debs.
thank you so much to @celestialmickey @energievie @mzshko @shinygalaxyperson @juliakayyy @mmmichyyy @metalheadmickey for tagging me! & then i'm pretending that @gardenerian & @suzy-queued tagged me too. i love you all so madly 🖤

your name: bee 🐝
your age: 13 going on 30 🥳
your first fandom(s): probably harry potter (fuck jkr). there's a picture of baby me that ran in my hometown newspaper at a midnight book release (at borders books! remember that place???), dressed as luna lovegood lolol. i still have the radish earrings that i made out of model magic! but then i was super active in the doctor who fandom in the early 2010s. i never wrote fic or anything though, just irl stuff--god, the 50th anniversary was so fucking fun--& tumblr gifs 🤩
your current fandom(s): shameless 🖕🏼
how did you first get into fandom? see above? lol. i think i just have always been a nerd who likes to engage with media in a fully unhinged way 😅
how long have you been engaging with fandom spaces? i'll keep this answer shamey specific: since early 2021! i fully fell into a deep pit of gallavich & started reading fic & lurking around tumblr. finally made one over the summer & then decided to fully impose on this space for the first ever gallacrafts! what a way to join! ✨
how often do you read fanfics? every damn day 😇
top 3 characters from your current fandom(s): mickey milkovich, ian gallagher, mandy milkovich
have you ever written a fic for a fandom? if so, shout it out! you can find me at gallawitch on ao3 & here's my bee writes 🐝 ✍🏼 tag on tumblr! 😍
have you ever drawn fanart for a fandom? if so, drop a link! surprisingly, yes! there are some on ao3 & then you can also check out my #bee makes art 🐝🎨 tag on tumblr!
share a personal headcanon that you feel very strongly about: i have really big feelings about 4x11 (it's one of my absolute favorite episodes of television, truly) & the powder keg that is the whole day between ian & mickey. you can read some of those thoughts here, but basically i think that regardless of love or mania, ian stopped taking mickey's safety into account when he was pushing him to come out. one day i will find the og meta post i wrote!! i still stand by it! 🗣
you’re trying to convince a friend to get into your current fandom(s) with you. what episode, clip, or scene are you showing them? again, because i am UNHINGED, i actually made this whole interactive summary to introduce someone to ian x mickey, aka the greatest love story of all time & you can read it here: the great ship gallavich 🚢
and finally, what does fandom mean to you? oh holy hell. at this point, it's truly everything to me. it's my escape, it's my joy, it's my entertainment, it's my safe space & it's now my BEST FUCKING FRIENDS. i truly think it's the most comfy i've felt sharing & creating with others & i just think it's a magical & emotional place. words cannot describe my gratitude 💗💗💗
