Jessa Wedding - Favorite Bits

Max has a lil werewolf friend called Eliza dkjshfkjshfkd

Malec’s pillowcase is ivory colored. I stan.

MAGNUS IS DOING DREAM MAGIC. HOLY SHIT.

OMG THE WEDDING IS HAPPENING IN A DREAM SDFKJHFKSFHKDFGHD AND IT’S AT BLACKFRIARS I CANNOT HANDLE THIS!!!!

Tessa is wearing gray pyjamas with white rabbits on them to her wedding and I think it’s iconic.

“I would marry you if you were wearing a barrel.” - JEM PLEASE DON’T

Alec kissed Magnus on his forehead—being slightly shorter than Magnus, he had to pull Magnus down a bit to do it, which Magnus didn’t mind, at all.- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHELPHHHHHHHHHHH

“So let me get this straight,” Alec said. - I don’t think you can, buddy.

Church attending Jessa wedding is the best thing ever.

Awww Jocelyn is painting again :)

LIVIA IS HERE OMFG SOMEBODY HOLD ME

EMMA AND CLARY ARE THE SAME HEIGHT LMAO

Max sitting on Alec’s shoulders and telling a story to Haline - SOFTNESS

KADIR IS MARYSE’S PLUS ONE TO THE WEDDING AND MAGNUS DID THAT HE SHIPS KADIR X MARYSE YAAAAAAASSSSSSS

Silent brothers are attending the wedding and brother Enoch is here too. Omg this is the best party ever.

Octavian was climbing Jace like a jungle gym. - cuteeeeeeeee

MAGNUS IS DOING THE CEREMONY TOO

Clary’s eyes were glistening. Jace reached into his pocket and offered her what looked like a handkerchief but was more likely a soft cloth for polishing blades. She gave a wry smile of recognition, and sniffled into it. - I WOULD DIE FOR THIS SWORD BOY. I REALLY WOULD.

THE RING SAYS MIZPAH - OMG THE THROWBACK AND THE FEELS.

Magnus noted that Alec was looking very foxy in his Armani suit - MAGNUS CALLED ALEX FOXY!!!!

Clary had her arm draped over Emma’s shoulders, and Jace was arguing with Simon about how to properly tie a necktie. Tiberius and Drusilla were watching this argument as though it were a tennis match. Julian had lifted Octavian up so he could look down at the river flowing by beneath. Isabelle was joking with Livia, who was giving Max a piggyback ride. - I MISSED THE BLACKTHORNS!!!!!!!!!!!

MARK AND KIERAN MADE IT TOO OMG

He glanced over and saw Tessa and Jem still standing by the railing. There was a shimmer beside them, at the edge of the bridge, and the hair on the back of Magnus’ neck rose - NOBODY FUCKING TOUCH ME WILL MADE IT TO THE WEDDING AND I AM EMO

BRB CRYING.

#I AM DEAD #MY HEART IS FULL OF RAINBOWS #BYE #jessa #jem carstairs #tessa gray #magnus bane #malec #tmi #tda #tec #tlbotw #tlbotw spoilers #dani reads tsc

Misanthropy

Behold my newsletter from April 30, 2020. Sign up here.

I fell asleep the other night trying to figure out how to get my neighbors to start wearing their goddamn face masks. It makes me so mad! I’m talking about the dad exiting his brownstone with two children in tow and no masks in sight. The cool teen on a skateboard who’s wearing a mask that covers her mouth but not her nose. The bozos stopping on the corner for a chat with masks cupping their chins. Don’t they know that it’s about protecting other people? I’ll make a sign and put it in the window, I thought. But people might not be able to see it if it’s in pen. I’ll cut the letters out of construction paper so they’re nice and big. Yes. WEAR A MASK, JERKS. IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU. I’ll workshop this when I wake up. In the morning I decided I didn’t want a rock through my window. I don’t know about you, but ever since quarantine began, I’ve experienced a record number of evil feelings toward strangers. Some are more justified than others. I quietly raged at a guy in the grocery store who fondled every single package of butter before selecting one, and I seethed at an innocent couple out for an early morning jog, matching scarves wrapped tidily around their faces. (Their crime was that I passed within 10 feet of them.) I’ve seen Star Wars. I know what’s going on here. We’re scared and under an insane amount of stress, and that can come out as a particularly toxic strain of misanthropy. This week I published a story on Bustle that came out of suddenly loathing my favorite Instagram influencers because their pandemic content reminds me of everything I don't have right now. But, Eliza, hasn't that always been the point of Instagram? Yes indeed. There are a lot of hateful feelings. But what amazes me is how quickly they melt into tenderness at the smallest gesture of neighborly connection. It takes almost nothing, as though my body is just waiting for a reason — literally any reason — to relax out of its anger-clench. Like that's not actually a sustainable way to live. Waiting outside the grocery store last week, I had the briefest of chats with the woman behind me about which stores had the longest lines, and it filled me up with a warm, happy glow. Inside, Alex and I had one of those sweet “we recognize each other and are finally acknowledging it” moments with one of the cashiers. He remembered that we came in on Monday mornings and told us that it was a good choice — it's the quietest time in the store. I hope he could see how much I was smiling under my mask. A few days ago, when it was sunny and breezy, Alex called me over to the window to see something wonderful: a white-haired couple reading next to one another in a teeny-tiny backyard just big enough for two chairs. It made me so happy. In the interest of running toward our biggest-hearted feelings, I’ll leave you with a few cozy things. The song “Little Bit” by Erika de Casier, which is good for blustery gray mornings. This extremely relatable conversation between my faves Hayley Williams and Phoebe Bridgers. I’m unabashedly on the Yoga With Adriene train and can’t recommend her videos enough, especially if you’re a non-joiner like me. And speaking of bandwagons, I read this BuzzFeed article about the vegan influencer-turned-quarantine icon Tabitha Brown, and now I'm obsessed with her delightful, upbeat TikTok videos. And one last thing: this New Yorker article about Lyon's greatest baguette maker.

the hamilton sense8 au no one asked for

each character has a very specific oneshot in my mind because sense8, duh but ....i’m also... not a writer?? (so this is quite the struggle)

...anyway.

afrolatino nonbinary closeted bisexual burr is lito: a good ass lawyer. his parents still died, he still went to school and climbed the ranks, he’s still passed up for the top position for not being able to pick a side (he meets alex at the coffeeshop {of course} bellamy works at) and is presented with the choice to face his fears head on

cis, very Latino, very gay alex is hernando: he’s a politician and openly bisexual. (they can’t be public yet and alex is understanding but burr knows it’s not fair) he’s still an immigrant from the Caribbean who climbed the ranks. he gets a lot of interest and hate for his “social justice warrior” policies (he’s gotta protect his home and his love, y’all) and his angry twitter rants against resident republican @ tom “rich asshole” jeffery have a strong activist following

cis, latina and chinese {?? crap sorry i can’t remember exactly but based off @fanciful-follies’s} bellamy is dani: I’m giving her mcnugget fic backstory but replace nuggets with coffee and switch the roles. Burr calls Alex immediately after and tells him the whole thing. Bellamy’s (call me bella) dating history and family life are Not Good. [i dont want to erase that it takes place in mexico but also alex’s story is americanized. i know very little about how he and the ot3 be received in mexico] (aka the ot3 parallel (theoburramy) that got me thinking about this whole thing, but hamburramy fit better for everyone else, whoops)

marquis de lafayette (stage name) (deadname: gilbert) (chosen names: marie and yves, look at what color hair tie they’re wearing today for pronouns) is wolfgang: French underground performer (her thing is to Laugh...cuz laf? she’s not necessarily an activist but by being who he is she makes at the statement and so why not work it? His music brings a smile to your face) might sounds crusty tbh? i’ll work on it) is very much biracial, pansexual and genderfluid. family was encouraging and accepting but the world is cruel. he fought hard to be who she is and is so glad he found someone who loves and accepts her in herc muslim, indian/black, trans woman (based on @stonerjohnlaurens’s lesbian lams au) herc is kala: her parents were not accepting and completely cut contact, (we didn’t raise you this way, don’t come back unless you will stop this nonsense) when she came out in college. it was a little before she was to study abroad and so she just...stayed in europe? she wasn’t in a position to fly back after what happened, i mean, she had no home to go back to. The whole ordeal made her question a lot, including her faith. but over time her siblings contacted her with very fierce support and updates on family life. She’s been able to heal, to build a life here, to find love and a home (with marie, today) and to find herself too. She mourns the loss of what she could’ve had with her parents but she’s found support in her faith, in laf, and her siblings and friends. Herc and Marie are happy together and love each other and that’s all that matters {we needed more mullete fluff everyone} [they’re in france]

maria is riley cis biracial (black and white) cis, lesbian: Voice of an angel, ear to match, she’s a musican and also plays piano. She’s been through a lot of trauma in her life (domestic violence, lost a child, car accident) she’s left james reynolds and is...rebuilding. angelica (african american black, cis, lesbian) is will (but only with the backstory of being a cop, [john church is her partner] since i *really* do not like will as a character. They go on dates and take it slow eventually connecting to each other’s trauma (angelica’s father was a cop and abusive to her mother, her mother took her and left, she was raised by her mother and the extended family: auntie margarita) it’s slowburn otp and it takes a lot of trust to get to that point but they are together now and taking it a day at a time

[they’re in the american south]

laurens is sun latina korean cis lady laurens, she fell for a girl at a tournament and her rich family found out and immediately disowned her. she fled the area with what she little she still had and lives/scrapes by all by herself (with her pet turtle). she does a lot of meditation to keep her anger down but never stopped doing martial arts. she’s an unsung champion...she doesn’t talk about her family at all in interviews but if you catch her at the right moment alone she might mention it’s nice to be away from everything. she quietly donates winnings to helping homeless lgbt youth. ...she’s pretty much a lesbian icon with a small but loving tumblr, korean, latina, gay, maritial arts following (she really should be more popular but #racism #sexism #homophobia etc) [based almost exactly on sun’s backstory so probably still americanized, more research needed, but she’s in south korea] theodosia (black, cis, lesbian) is neets (facecast is nicolette), (trans girl, biracial chinese, white) eliza is nomi and they’re so happy y’all!!!! they met at a pride speed dating event and hit it off right away. eliza is in the medical field (midwifery?? pediatrics?? nursing?? idk but she’s always loved children). and theo had a very busy work life but dating was not really working out for her, hence the event. they’ve been together for a while. there’s been lots of close calls with shitty transphobic, lesphobic assholes but they got through it and their love is stronger then ever. little cis girl theo (teddy) is loved by her moms and (latino trans boy) phillip is in the process of being adopted

(his biological parents being {of course} non au betsy(eliza) and alexander (hamilton), of course, where they fell in love way to hard and fast, and betsy wanted kids (their marriage was doomed from the start, he cared too much about his work,) alexander is a terrible father (absent and cheating). betsy would’ve taken phillip but just the thought of being a single mother was overwhelming (god, she's too young for this, she should’ve listened to her sister, his wings can only go so high before they burned)...but regardless, she *wasn’t* ready. thus phillip got taken in (by the state????). [i have no idea how the actual process works and so this is just a general idea]

[the theoliza clan are not american, but they met the hamburramy ot3 at some point and keep in contact via internet magic?] biracial (black and white), cis, asexual, polyamorous, african peggy is capheus (everyone forgets her but that’s okay because she loves herself, her identities and her life and that’s all that matters also she can totally fuck you up (both in a fight and her looks) and she loves her momma and takes care of her but at the same time she’s going to go out into the world (looking for some minds at work) with her best friend james madison (who happens to be very gay, and also hiv+) at her side (jeffmads is endgame here) peggy eventutally ends up with [facecast are the ensemble members for martha and dolly in blow us all away reprise] dolly (poly, currently with a very loving boyfriend, their love is 3 people strong now) and then eventually martha. (aka the ot4 of your dreams) both relationships have combined into a great big cuddle puddle tbh.

#hamilton musical #hamilton fandom #sense8 #fic prompts #fic #i think i can at least try to write burr's #it's the scene between nomi and lito at the museum #i have a fic name and everything #but i hope someone else will roll with it too #also feel free to call me out on any sketchy parts or abuse of cultures that aren't mine #hamilton sense8 au

Tweet Cute is one of the most anticipated YA romances of 2020. Allow me tell you more about it!

Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Publication date: January 21st 2020 Wednesday Books ISBN 1250237327 | ISBN13: 9781250237323

Meet Pepper, swim team captain, chronic overachiever, and all-around perfectionist. Her family may be falling apart, but their massive fast-food chain is booming — mainly thanks to Pepper, who is barely managing to juggle real life while secretly running Big League Burger’s massive Twitter account.

Enter Jack, class clown and constant thorn in Pepper’s side. When he isn’t trying to duck out of his obscenely popular twin’s shadow, he’s busy working in his family’s deli. His relationship with the business that holds his future might be love/hate, but when Big League Burger steals his grandma’s iconic grilled cheese recipe, he’ll do whatever it takes to take them down, one tweet at a time.

All’s fair in love and cheese — that is, until Pepper and Jack’s spat turns into a viral Twitter war. Little do they know, while they’re publicly duking it out with snarky memes and retweet battles, they’re also falling for each other in real life — on an anonymous chat app Jack built.

As their relationship deepens and their online shenanigans escalate — people on the internet are shipping them?? — their battle gets more and more personal, until even these two rivals can’t ignore they were destined for the most unexpected, awkward, all-the-feels romance that neither of them expected.

Early Praise: "Tweet Cute delivers in every possible way: a perfect enemies-to-lovers romance, a whip-smart plotline, and endearingly real characters. I devoured it.” - Francesca Zappia, author of Eliza and Her Monsters "Sweet and fun! An adorable debut that updates a classic romantic trope with a buzzy twist." - Jenn Bennett, author of Alex, Approximately and Serious Moonlight “A witty rom-com reinvention for the Twitter age, Tweet Cute pairs delicious online rivalry with deeply relatable insights on family pressure and growing up. This fresh, funny read had us hitting ‘favorite’ from page one.” - Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka, authors of Always Never Yours and If I’m Being Honest

Emma Lord is a digital media editor and writer living in New York City, where she spends whatever time she isn’t writing either running or belting show tunes in community theater. She graduated from the University of Virginia with a major in psychology and a minor in how to tilt your computer screen so nobody will notice you updating your fan fiction from the back row. She was raised on glitter, grilled cheese, and a whole lot of love. Her sun sign is Hufflepuff, but she is a Gryffindor rising. TWEET CUTE is her debut novel. You can find her geeking out online at @dilemmalord on Twitter.

Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Rating: 4/5 stars

Review: Tweet Cute was nothing like I expected it to be, but it was still so good. A quick, adorable read, that was fun throughout. Pepper and Jack are the perfect match, and their chemistry that was built on opposites attract and works perfectly. I was rooting for them from the beginning. I really enjoyed how it was written. I thought it flowed really well. The characters were great. I loved the interactions they had, and how the backstories tied themselves together in the end. I couldn’t help but feel for Pepper for most of the book. Her relationship with her parents, as well as how she kept quiet about a lot of things resonated with me. The only reason this isn’t a 5 star for me is because of the plot. It was paced to my liking, it didn’t feel rushed or stalling, but I felt like it was going back and forth a lot. At moments this was a bit frustrating to me. But overall, this was an entertaining read, with great characters and an intriguing story. It’s a great addition to the YA/Contemporary genre. And I look forward to reading more from Emma Lord in the future.
