Kaylor Timeline BEFORE VSFS 2013
It's a thread I did on my Twitter that I'll transfer here.
Once again, I used amazing Tumblr posts to do it. So I'll credit them as we go (If I need to do something else tell me, I'm new to the Tumblr etiquette).
So the official story is that Taylor and Karlie crossed path a couple of times without interacting and met for the first time at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show in 2013 🤔
Well they met A LOT of times and interacted before actually 😅
Let's see the Timeline before that VSFS in 2013!
***I'll edit this post as I find new interactions (because I feel like I'll find a lot of them) I'll add this 🆕 beside new additions and dates when it was added at the end of the post.
First meeting!
So what motivated my thread in the first place is this Interview Taylor did in 2014 with Andrew Bevan of Teen Vogue.
Here's the YouTube Link (X)
But here's the most important part of that interview:
He is saying that he introduced Karlie and Emma Stone to Taylor!!
Ok we know that Taylor met Emma at the 2008 Young Hollywood Award.
I don't think though that he is talking about that event. Because he says that he congratulated her for her cover.
Taylor did two covers with Teen Vogue, one in 2009 and one in 2011.
Following the Timeline and everything it's most likely the March 2009 one:
Tumblr media
EDIT:
Thanks to this Anon! (X)
A magazine cover is planned 2-8 months in advance, up to a year for major celebrities.
The Young Hollywood Award was on late April 2008 and the cover was for March 2009 so it make sense.
Tumblr media
So it's most likely that Taylor met karlie for the first time at the same event she met Emma for the first time.
🆕 Really cute fact.
On the Cover of that magazine, Taylor wears a dress from the Calvin Klein Spring 2009 show. (X)
Guess who walked that runway??
Karlie! (X)
I exceeded the limit of picture so click on the (X) to see the posts.

Elie Saab Spring Summer 2013 show:
Octobre 3rd 2012
Taylor is still in Paris and attends The Paris Fashion Week (X) at a fashion show where I'm pretty sure Karlie walked (I'm still searching for photos/videos).
But we know that Karlie was at the Paris Fashion Week too! (Thanks Astra!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's a video:
youtube
🆕Met Gala 2013
They were also both at the Met Gala in 2013. Wich was in May.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So there you have it! All of Kaylor interaction BEFORE the 2013 VSFS!
This explains the timing of it all.
Because they allegedly met at the 2013 Victoria Secret Fashion Show in Novembre.
But as we know, Taylor moved to New York because Karlie asked her:
youtube
Timestamp 1:23
And people believe that she moved there after their Big Sur trip in March 2014.
Actually. Back in January 2014, Taylor was already looking to buy an appartment near Karlie's:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And she actually bought her Tribeca oenthouse in February.
Tumblr media
Thanks to Bigsurlor for this!!
So they definitly knew each other before 2013!
Edit August 19 2023: Met Gala 2010, Milan trip together and Met Gala 2013 and the appartment hunting
Edit August 27th 2023: the Calvin Klein Spring 2009 dress section

What's your favorite movies and why would you recommend them? :)
Dear Anon, I’ve been crying over this post for days 🫠 seriously, how I’m going to answer this question? I took my list of movies (I’m not going to say how many movies I have but it's long, very long) and I had a break down. Do I chose my current preferred? The ones I’ve seen more than 20 times? The ones I love because “potatoes”? I chose a pattern like “my favorite in anime, in thriller, in action”? Do you see the dilemma???
So here is a list of a bunch of movies I really love. Favorites? Not sure. Recommend? Oh, absolutely!!
The Godfather (1972) I just love everything about this movie. The music, the characters, the ambiantation, the plot (it's the raising of a new mob boss!). Al Pacino does an amazing acting work! Frankly if you having seen it, give a try. And did you know that they were really helped by real mobsters? At the beginning, the scene where we see one of the subordinates rehearsal what he was going to say to Vito Corleone, was one of the people who gave advice on the real mafia. He was practicing his lines. When you see this movie, tell me who do you think is the “Goodfather” of the title? 🤗 I would love the read your opinion.
Tumblr media
Ahmed, prince of the Alhambra (Ahmed, príncipe de la Alhambra) (1998). I think it's only available in Spanish (it's a Spanish production), but if you can see it, it's totally worth it. It's based in a tale from the American writer Washington Irvin’s Tales of the Alhambra (1832). It's the story of an Muslim prince who falls in love of a Christian princess in the medieval Spain. Ahmed was inclosed in the Alhambra all his life because it was predicted he will suffer because of love, so his father dictated he will never knew such thing. But he falls in love though poetry. Blanca, the princess, has to be married by a tournament and she despite violence, that's why she loves Ahmed lovable poetry. The story is how they fought for their love to succeed against everything. (P.S: the poem I took inspiration for “The light of your beloved eyes” I knew it in this movie. Is the poem they “write” together.)
Tumblr media
Tangled (2010) I just love this movie. Where are you going to find a Disney Princess that goes to dive bars, sings with its regulars, fights with a pan, the male co-protagonist freaks out because her hair glows but has arguments with the horse that wants to capture him, both the parents are still alive at the end of the movie (🥹), is the father who cries and the mother who looks strong, has Blade Runner reference?? Seriously this movie great!
Tumblr media
Clueless (1995) this is one of my feelgood movies. It's one the best adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma. Cher is a lawyer’s daughter in Beverly Hills. She does what every teenager does (goes to parties and have fun with friends). She doesn't gossip or is mean to anyone. In fact, through all the movie, every time there is a new student in the school, she welcomes them. It's a romantic movie you always end with a smile. And come on! The co-protagonist is Paul Rudd!
Tumblr media
Seven days in May (1963). A political thriller. I just adore this movie. With Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster. It's explain the story of the head of the American military who wants to do a coup because the president sign a pact of disarmament with the Russian. It's amazing how almost 60 years later this movie continue to teach so much!
Tumblr media
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) directed by Georges Lucas, with Harrison Ford and Sean Connery. The father/son duo in this movie is absolutely hilarious. The action never stops. I don't really want to spoil the movie if you haven't see it, but just “he didn't have a ticket”, “don't call me Junior” and “this is how your spend your days?” are my favorites. And no, you don't find any Dr. Jones in Archeological departments. I searched in four universities. And he’s right, the X doesn't mark the place 🤣
Tumblr media
Jurassic Park (1993) I saw this movie in theaters being a little kid (if that doesn't set up my age 🥲). I wanted to see the movie with dinosaurs and I went out even more excited. Today, thirty years later, I’m just thrilled to see the original trio again together in Dominion. There is so many amazing moments. As an historian, I would have reacted just like Sam Neil’s character (Dr. Alan Grant) seeing a brachiosaurus. I love the idea that asks Jeff Goldbloom’s character, they were centred if they could do it (created dinosaurs from old DNA) that they didn't stopped to ask themselves if they had the moral right to do it. It's a question I’m not sure actual scientists would ask themselves doing researches...
Tumblr media
Revenge of the Sith (2005). I had to put a Star Wars movie here. But hey, my favorite is “The Empire Strikes Back”. RotS is here because I’m talking about the 4h long version (is up there on Internet, you can easily find it). Why do I live it so much? First, ROTS is already a cinematic beauty. Have you seen how the colors disappear little by little as the movie pass and you can see Anakin falling to the Dark Side until we see a little hope with the twin suns of Tatooine (Luke and Leia)? Is just (chef kiss). But this version has the Mandalore arc (I could ramble for hours about Ahsoka, and Maul and my baby Clones 🥺) and the creation of the Rebellion by not other than Bail Organa, Mon Mothma and kriffing Padmé Amidala!! Freaking Georges Lucas decided it was more important to centre in the fall of Anakin and no the creation of a new hope?! Seriously?! Well, this 4h long version gives you all ☺️
Tumblr media
Ulysses (1954) another with Kirk Douglas (did I love that actor? Yes sir). I’m a specialist in Greek mythology, in fact my art and history master degree was about the Hades (the place) in athenian vases of the 6th and 5th century B.C. Do you know how many movies or TV shows are good adaptation to the Iliad and the Odyssey? This one! And this one alone, and it's 60 years old! (please, don't make me talk about Troy, or the last one of the BBC...). It's amazing how good the portrayal of done. They have done an amazing research work. Nausicaa wears dresses that we see in paintings from Crete! And Ulysses fights like the firsts pugilats: with underwear. It's really accurate. The Odyssey is cut, and you don't see any God, but it's a movie pals. All the majors acts, all the majors adventures are there and well done explained. Telling again, a movie from 1954 hasn’t been dethroned as the best Illiad and Odyssey adaptation... And the Eneid’s case is even worse.
Tumblr media
Twelve angry men (1957) with Henry Fonda. I think it comes from a theatrical version (it looks like). There has been an murder, the son as been accused, 12 men of a jury have to decide if that son is guilty without any reasonable doubt (if he's guilty, it's capital death). Eleven are completely sure at the beginning of it, only Henry Fonda wants to discuss because he has doubts and it's capital death... I just love legal movies 🥰 and this one is really good. Henry Fonda does an amazing job.
Tumblr media
I gave you ten movies but I could continue for a long while 😭 Argo (2012), Beauty and the Beast (1992), Speed (1994), Miss Congeniality (2000), 2012 (2012), Romeo + Juliet (1996), Moulin Rouge (2001), The Great Escape (1963), Tora Tora Tora (1970), Midway (2019), The Magnificent Seven (1960), Fast and Furious: Hobbs and Shaw (2019), Princess Mononoke (1998)... Gosh!!! This is no end
And mention of honor. Movie I can’t see no matter how old I’m: The Land Before Time (1988) Thank you Don Bluth for given us a real masterpiece of animation... And a trauma! To this date, I’m still unable to see this movie without crying like a baby!!

You Can’t Make Me
Notes: For the anon who requested something with Paul and Emma this time. I love these nerds, so I had a lot of fun writing them! :)
Summary: Paul refuses to go to his office’s New Year Eve’s party which prompts Emma to take drastic measures. 
“I’m not going.”
Paul’s arms were crossed against his chest, resolute in his decision. Emma stood by the TV which she had turned off to direct his attention to the invitation in her hand, which detailed a New Year’s work party. It was an invitation that Paul had received about a couple days ago and had been hiding in the hopes that Emma would not find it. Unfortunately, it seemed his efforts were in vain.
“They’re your friends!” Emma exclaimed, waving the invitation around empathetically. “You should hang out with them instead of spending your day here, alone, again, like you always do.”
“I’m not alone,” Paul protested in a manner that was not at all childlike. “I have you. Besides, hanging around with big crowds of people is not exactly my scene.”
“No,” Emma agreed. “Your scene is missing out on every big life event that comes your way.”
“Why do you even care?” Paul pointed out. “Last time I checked, you weren’t too big a fan of them either.”
“Because they’re your friends, Paul.” Emma sighed, flopping down on the couch next to him. “You spend all of your time with me. Don’t get me wrong, I love the attention, but I want you to have a life outside of me. They care about you and I know you care about them too. So why won’t you go?”
Paul shrugged, averting his eyes. “I don’t know. I guess I just—” He broke off suddenly, flushing. “No, it’s stupid, never mind. Look, can we just agree not to go and drop the subject already?”
Emma turned towards him, interest sparked. “No wait, what were you going to say?”
“Nothing, forget about it,” he muttered.
Emma narrowed her eyes. There was no way she wasn’t going to get him to spill whatever it was; it could be important after all. She noticed the way his arms were crossed, leaving his sides fully exposed. Bingo. “I have ways of making you tell me, you know.”
Paul frowned, genuine confusion crossing his features. “What are you talking about—hey!”
Paul startled as two fingers jabbed into his side and pulled a definitively unmanly squeak from his mouth. A flush slowly began to make its way to his cheeks and, seeing the way Emma was looking at him, he was quick to shut whatever this was down before it could start. “Whatever it is you’re thinking, no.”
“I’m not thinking anything,” she said innocently, following him as he backed away on the couch. “Why are you moving away from me? Is something wrong?”
“No,” he protested. “No, uh, of course not. You just—surprised me. Yes. That’s it. So, uh, there’s really no need for you to try again—no!”
Her fingers were fast and devious when they landed on his sides, wringing laughter out of him before he could do anything to prevent it. “W-Wahahait! Emma, nohoho!”
“What were you going to say?” she asked, squeezing up his sides and causing him to flail dangerously. “Why don’t you want to go to the party?”
“B-Behehecause—” In his laughter-muddled state, Paul could think of no genuine excuse. “Behehecause fuhuhuck yohohou!”
“Oh, ho, ho, now you’re gonna get it.” Her hands shot up, sneaking their way into his armpits and digging into the sensitive nerves contained there. He squeaked, jumping a near mile in the air as he desperately tried to pull her hands away. “Is it bad there? Do you want me to stop?”
Paul could think of nothing to do but nod in answer while releasing all manner of embarrassing snorts and shrieks. His arms clamped down on her hands but all that accomplished was trapping them in place so that he had no choice but to raise his arms if he wanted her to stop, something he absolutely refused to do.
“C’mon Paul,” Emma teased. “Just tell me the reason and this can all be over.”
“I cahahan’t!” he protested, throwing his head back on the couch. “Ihit’s ehehembarrassing! Gah—nohoho, dohohon’t!”
“It can’t possibly be more embarrassing than this,” she prompted in what she found to be encouragement. Finally, she decided to give him a break and moved her hands back down to his sides, a place that appeared to be fairly ticklish all on its own, but not nearly the hotspot that was his armpits. “I promise I won’t laugh at whatever it is. You can trust me.”
“C-Clehehearly nohot!” Paul batted uselessly at her hands, unable to coherently function in his current state. “Pfft—nohoho—stahahahap!”
Emma felt her heart flutter traitorously in her chest at the sight of her Paul, cynical, sarcastic Paul, reduced to this writhing, babbling mess from just a few fingers. Though she was very intent on her mission, she found herself momentarily distracted by the sweet, innocent giggles falling from his mouth.
It was in this distracted state, however, that she accidentally let her touch wander too far south. The second her hands came anywhere near his hips Paul’s eyes snapped open and some wild instinct took over that prompted him to blindly reach out and grab her sides in turn.
Emma was unprepared for this turn of events. She jumped, biting down harshly on her lip to prevent the mortifying sound that almost leapt out. “W-Wait, hold on Paul, think about this—noHOHO!”
As it turned out, Emma was somehow even more ticklish than Paul was. It seemed that everywhere he touched was overly sensitive, even her lower calves which he had no end of amusement with.
“This is wild,” he muttered, amazed, as he gently pinched up and down her lower legs. “I never even thought someone could be ticklish here.”
“Paul, Paul, Paul, Pahahahahaul!” she squealed in protest, the only word she could seemingly get out as she writhed on the couch. She twisted around, hitting him viciously on the shoulder. “Stahahahap!”
“You know, all this time I’ve endured your tickle attacks and not once did I think to get you back,” Paul mused, snagging one of her legs in his arms so he could scribble fingers over her defenseless soles. This prompted her to fall back onto the couch in a giggling heap. “If I had known it was this easy to get you back I would have tried ages ago.”
“T-Thihihis ihihisn’t fahahair! Yohou lihike ihit!”
“I don’t think you’re in any position to be talking back,” he pointed out, digging fingers under her toes and attempting to ignore his rampant blush at her words.
“T-Thahat’s whahat y-yohou thihink!” Emma lurched forward and with a sudden surge of energy managed to pull her leg from his grip and flip them around so that her fingers could dig harshly into the slender bones of his hips. She relished in his resulting jump, grinning triumphantly. “I had an older sister, remember? I am well-versed in the art of tickle fights.”
Paul burst into wild and uncharacteristic laughter as she turned the tables back on him. This time he only lasted for a couple of seconds, unable to have his worst spot demolished like that. “Fihihihine, fihihihine, I-I’ll tehehell yohohou, Juhuhuhust stahaHAHAHAHAP!”
That was all she needed to hear. Emma released him, sitting back smugly on the couch. Paul huffed in exhaustion, holding his hips irritably. “That was mean.”
Emma shrugged. “You poked the dragon.”
“If I remember correctly, you poked me first.”
“Details. Anyway, If I remember correctly, I believe you had something to tell me?”
Paul sighed. He hadn’t wanted to get into this tonight, but as Emma stared at him with those earnest, trusting eyes, he found the words spilling from his lips before he could stop them. “I just sometimes worry that they don’t want me around. My co-workers, I mean.”
Emma frowned. “What do you mean? You all seem to get along fine.”
“Now,” he corrected firmly. “But I was never all that close to them before, and if I’m being honest I think I might have come off as sort of an asshole. It’s just kind of hard to believe that they just forgot about all of that.”
Emma reached forward to grab his knee, squeezing it in a reassuring, non-ticklish way. “Dude, trust me. I know all about feeling guilty for being an asshole to people; I get it. Yeah, maybe in the past you weren’t the nicest, but they’ve gotten to know you since then. They like the real you. They wouldn’t hang around you if they still thought you were an asshole.”
Paul gave her a critical look, trying to discern if she was bullshitting him or not. “You sure?”
“Of course I’m sure. When have I ever been wrong?” Before Paul could open his mouth to contradict her, she stood up definitively and shrugged on her jacket. “Now c’mon—are we going to that stupid party or not?”
Paul looked up at her, five feet of cocky grins and ruffled hair from rolling around on the couch, helping him through yet another issue without even trying. Sometimes he found that he couldn’t help but fall in love with Emma over and over again. Slowly he stood up as well, taking her hand. “Yeah, okay. Only because your argument was so compelling.”
“Great, cause I am in the mood for some crappy office champagne.” She paused with her hand on the door, turning to glare at him. “Also, just so you know, if you ever tickle me again I will break both your arms, understood?”
Paul smirked, a mischievous spark taking hold of him. “Is that so?”
Emma scurried back from him, seeing the look in his eyes. “Paul, no, we’re gonna be late—”
“We have a couple minutes. I think some revenge is due, don’t you think?”
“Wait, wait, wait, Paul nohohohohoho!”
Needless to say, they ended up late to the party after all.

Hi, I really loved your post with the monsters as Birds of Prey! Was wondering if you had any thoughts on the Foxes as Marvel or Mcu characters? I feel like I could see Dan as Carol Danvers and Andrew for sure is Jessica Jones, idk about the rest.
oh wow old post!!
haha unfortunately i’m not really a comics person so i don’t feel like i can really give the best analysis possible, but i have seen most of the mcu movies and bits and pieces of the netflix show so i’ll try my best. also im using dc characters too bc i want to
1. Dan: I think your instinct with Dan as Captain Marvel is spot-on (at least uhhh,, based on the movie lol sorry comics ppl). Her direct, forceful powers and fighting style are definitely reminiscent of dan’s no-nonsense leadership approach. similarly the themes of overcoming sexism and acceling in a male-dominated industry in the captain marvel movie is pretty much the same as dan’s story establishing herself as the first female exy captain (tho sports is way more valid than the military). plus there’s a lot of emphasis on love and friendship between women that dan is ALL about. also lashana lynch would be a god tier dan wilds fc. Dan could also def have that lawful good Okoye from Black Panther energy. Loyal, disciplined, no-nonsense leader. no powers except discipline. no hair. also danai gurira in 2012 with the dreads and the sword and the cape on TWD was definitely part of my middle school sexual awakening
2. Kevin: Aquaman. this is based pretty much exclusively on the fact that jason momoa is my #1 kevin fc and also that Pasifika kevin is phenomenal and mandatory, actually. otherwise i think he has a decent amount of stick-up-the-ass cyclops energy. or dick grayson nightwing energy but i don’t have any evidence for why. kinda looks like him tho
3. Andrew: andrew gets the most characters bc he’s my favorite. i think ur jessica jones instincts are absolutely correct, both in her storyline (i only watched the first season) and her powers. i’ve seen some powers au and the tendency seems to be giving andrew like,, psychic powers or the like, and i don’t really agree. andrew is a very direct character. he’s pragmatic, he confronts problems head on, and he doesn’t muck about in details. to me this really translates best into physical powers like super strength that help u big punch straight thru all ur problems. also i def think andrew would be not just a solo hero but a mercenary (or a detective) because he’s not altruistic enough to be a standard vigilante. he doesn’t care enough about other people to hang out on rooftops all night waiting for Crime to occur. there’s a price for that.  which brings us to the NEXT andrew hero: deadpool. maybe in personality more of a drugged andrew but the superpowered mercenary is really a perfect fit for andrew. also, healing powers have a decidedly tragic poetry to them on andrew. already he’s self-destructive, if he had a healing factor his concern for his own well-being would be so beyond rock bottom it’d be in the earth’s core. even worse when you remember that with a healing factor, as opposed to indestructibility, you still feel all the pain. which brings us to Wolverine and X-23, who have the same thematic points as deadpool but are much more of a personality match and they have knife hands, which i really think andrew would appreciate. ending that sadness train and onto another tho, andrew’s aesthetic and Vibes fit the Winter Soldier just SO well (just that movie tho, not really civil war or anything past that) and a reinterpretation of the captain america story using the twinyards would be incredibly interesting. and finally, one last hero that would work really well for andrew: rogue, only remove the angst around not being able to touch people, andrew would love that. one touch and their comatose? baller. don't fucking touch him.
4. Matt: Shazam. I didn’t see the shazam movie but my dad and brother did and they said it was very funny and all the trailors looked like it had a lot of fun himbo energy and i really think that fits. in terms of matching himbo disaster energy i think i’ve heard good things about comics hawkeye (not mcu). thor?
5. Aaron: Mr. Fantastic. now this might be a stretch but aaron is a character who uses a skin-deep veneer of anger to cover the fact that he’s actually quite pliant and bends to other people’s wills. and he’s a doctor or w/e. he could alse be like,, antman. he’s smart right? hank pym not paul rudd. katelyn can be wasp
6. Seth: Arm Fall Off Boy. no i will not elaborate.             ..... ugh fine, but i'm using my favorite piece of superhero media of all time: x-men evolution, the one where they're all teenagers in public high school. seth can be lance alvers/avalanche who’s a bit of a jerk and has a lot of issues with authority and has a rivalry with cyclops very reminiscent of seth with kevin, but still there’s the recurring theme that he’s lashing out because of low self-esteem and a bad situation and he’s a surprisingly sympathetic character who i’m very fond of. his power is earthquakes but i think the name makes that pretty self-explanatory
7. Allison: Iron Man. cocky, bitchy, and rich rich rich. sounds like allison to me. then to elevate it a level higher: emma frost, rich bitch extraordinaire. also if allison had telepathic powers she would be unstoppable. plus one more bitchy, morally-gray blonde (but chaotic this time): Harley Quinn
8. Nicky: Okay so I do wanna give a quick shout-out to Northstar, the first openly gay comicbook superhero, who’s a speedster which I’d actually say fits Nicky pretty well. However, if i had to choose a superhero to represent nicky in presence and powers it would have to be Jubilee from x-men (... from what i’ve heard lol. i’ve never actually consumed any of her Media hahaha anyway) she’s a joyful, energetic presence and her powers are setting off fireworks which i think is a good balance of nicky being a supportive cousin-parent AND a chaotic train wreck garbage trash man. also gonna throw in johnny storm for a cheap 'flaming' joke
9. Renee: Thunder/Blackbird from Black Lightning bc she’s a fufkin lesbian lol. (i don’t watch the show but i do follow nafessa williams’s tag). now the fr ones i’m gonna do together because to me they have the same Vibes so i chose them for the same reasons. Wonder Woman and Storm who to me have the same  reserved, impartial, regal energy. honestly ethereal and somewhat otherwordly, and quite literally goddesses. also op as hell.  black widow and her “red in my leger” looking for redemption story also fits thematically.
10. Neil: okay lazy answer first: the flash or quicksilver. get it? because they run fast? and neil run too? yea i like to think i've proven myself to be better than such a surface level interpretation but worth the mention ig. so for srs now, mystique and her shape changing powers would be an interesting interpretation of neil's identity issues, but i wanna push it a step further. nightcrawler would actually be possibly the MOST interesting hero to apply to neil 1. because powers still very movement go fast place to place 2. because of the thematic focus on neil's unusual looks and the lengths he goes to hide them, very much in line with the way nightcrawler will use a hologram-projector in order to look human, yet in both cases it's only a surface-level illusion, and 3. his parentage. here, mary would be mystique, which i also think works very well considering mary seemed to be the far more effective chameleon on the run than neil, and also fits with her place as a morally grey character, as mystique herself is often a villain or an antagonist, with her own agenda and shadowy motives. then nathan matches well with nightcrawler's father: azazel, a literal demon, and also where kurt gets his appearance. it's a shockingly coherent narrative between the three of them. then, to also give neil some powers that aren't contingent on his fucked up geneology and rather on his own merit and abilities, Black Canary and her sonic voice parallel the way that neil began to anchor his identity and take ownership over himself through his voice and his sick roasts

okay, so it’s been brought up in bits, but let’s talk about the similarities of Guy and BF. y’all know that post about the spider verse heroes’ worlds being slightly different, like their memes and whatnot? i think that’s how this situation is, where the same things happen, or at least similar things
i’ll edit this post as i go, but here’s what i have so far:
dialogue:
- “Okay. Okay. Okay.”
- “I’m authorizing you to use my firearm.”
- “Wear a watch!”
- “Should we grab these chairs? I’ll get the piano!” “Should we take these boxes? Fuck yeah!”
- “I have this kooky, reclusive biology professor-“
actions:
- ethan/hannah’s “floss” dance and the smoke club kids
- the specific way Macnamera twirls his gun to Paul and Lex
- the LDDDD/SSN dances in Deck The Halls
themes:
- the bit Ted said about “going for the head” and Becky shooting Linda in the head/Curt’s line character and Gary kicking Ethan in the head to kill him
- want. similar to Guy where you got infected by wanting (Bill with his daughter, Charlotte with Sam, etc) BF also deals with want. everyone wants a wiggly for different reasons, like Becky wanting one for the kids at the hospital, Tom wanting one to get Tim to love him, Lex and Ethan to get to California, etc.
music:
I ranted about this in a group chat, but it wasn’t very cohesive (nor will it be cohesive here) but basically the themes of the songs in Guy match up, though not perfectly, with the songs in BF. for instance:
- Wiggly Jingle/The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals: a seemingly goofy opening number that basically tells the plot through the main antagonist’s eyes. (TGWDLM with them singing about the apotheosis and needing Paul, Wiggly Jingle about Wiggly ‘taking over people’s hearts and souls’)
- What Tim Wants/What Do You Want, Paul?: these are both pretty straight-forward. we hear Tom and Mr. Davidson sing about what they want to no one in particular (well, WDYWP was to someone in particular, but you get it)
-CaliforMIA/La Dee Dah Dah Day: characters longing for a new life/recalling the new life that has just happened
- Our Doors Are Open/Cup of Roasted Coffee: a seemingly innocent song about the main female lead (Lex and Emma) going about their normal work day, super simple and easy, nothing could go wrong
- Feast or Famine/Cup of Poisoned Coffee: in which the previous song and the character’s life gets turned on its head
- Monsters and Men/You Tied Up My Heart: using appeal to a secondary character to ensure them that everything is and will be fine, both coincidently sung by Jeff Blim
- Deck The Halls/Show Stoppin’ Number: both second act songs that simultaneously do and don’t make sense to the plot (nor were either supposed to be as big and loved by the audience). Both also coincidently sung by Robert Manion
- Made In America/America is Great Again/Join Us And Die: technically villain songs, in which we learn more about the villain and their wants and needs. ‘that one concrete goal that motivates all their actions’ if you will. also Made in America/America is Great Again are both songs about twisting the phrase ‘the american dream (or, to quote HMB, “the american way”) into something evil
- Black Friday/Not Your Seed: ballad about the death, or apparent death, of a character (of the same age, or nearly the same age) and is a huge driving point to the plot (Alice with Bill’s death, and Lex with her survival)
- If I Fail You/Let It Out: a last-ditch effort to stop the big bad and make everything right in the world
- Inevitable/What If Tomorrow Comes: everything seems to be resolved, but ultimately is not
- Let Him Come/ Wiggle: second act songs that are sung by the “evil” characters and precedes the show’s climax. Both songs also mention the coming of a character played by Jon Matteson- Paul in TGWDLM and Wiggly in Black Friday ( from breakthefifthwall )
we also hear the interlude to La Dee Dah Dah Day when Emma and Paul are in Tom’s home
the ‘aliens invading minds’ interlude plays in Made In America when Wiley says ‘the prophet has been chosen, and she will bring about his birth’ ( from wont-you-be-my-neighbor-totoro )
‘not my father’s hopeless seed’ is sung by Lex in Black Friday, in reference to Not Your Seed ( from anon )
in What If Tomorrow Comes, Curt’s character has Peanuts in his hoodie pocket ( from fluffyhales )
when Macnamera is introduced in the show (and a few times after) the interlude to America Is Great Again plays ( from anon )
characters:
- Paul
- Emma
- Man in a Hurry
- Homeless Man
- Macnamera
- Charlotte
- Mr. Davidson
- Ted
- Hot Chocolate Boy
- Bill
- Hidgens (mentioned)
please, if you can think of any more, let me know, and i’ll add them in

Good morning/afternoon/evening!
I hope everyone are doing well and having a good December! I wanted to apologize for being away a lot recently. December is one of the busiest months for me with both work and personal life so it’s been more difficult to be around. I am doing this acceptance post as my inbox is fairly full and I wanted to explain my absence as of late.  I’m not sure if I will be around before Christmas or not but if not then hope everyone has a great Christmas!
All requests are under the cut as usual. If you don’t see your request on here then please to send me a message or IM me. If you requested before the 11th of December then your request should be on my normal to do list! :) <3

can you write something about half infected Paul and make it angsty as hell?
Requests are open!
You bet I can!
Universe: The Guy Who Didn’t Like MusicalsCharacters: Paul, EmmaWords: 1091Genre: Angst, TragedyTrigger Warnings: Blood, Death, Referenced suicide
Requested by anon
Still The Man You Trust
“I don’t like musicals!”
Paul ripped the pin out of the grenade and hurled it into the meteor.
Almost instantly, it exploded with light and heat and he was thrown back due to the blast. He heard the melodic screams of the infected as he crashed back down onto the ground, and he felt warm blood trickle out of his side. He turned his head to check his injury. His blood had a distinct blue tinge.
His stomach grumbled briefly, before he threw up all over the rubble in front of him. Even his own vomit was glowing blue.
And then he felt the spores. The air was thick with them, and every heavy breath he took allowed more of them to accumulate in his lungs. He began to wheeze hysterically…
Until he stopped.
He wasn’t sure why the pain suddenly seemed to fade. He tilted his head downwards in order to look at his shirt. It was stained with patches of both dark crimson and a glowing azure. He felt nauseous, so he lifted his head to prevent himself from vomiting again.
Except he didn’t move.
He tried to move his head again, but it didn’t budge. Neither would his hands. He put all of his energy and effort into his right hand, and all it did was twitch slightly. Why couldn’t he move his own body?
His head lifted (without him trying) and Paul saw all of the infected people that had tortured him begin to scramble back onto their feet. Some were even missing limbs, but that didn’t stop them from stumbling through the large hole in the theatre that the grenade had created. Paul followed.
No! I’m not one of them! I want to stay here! I want- Hell, I want to die! I’m not-
He willed himself to stay. He begged himself to fall to the ground. He wished that he had died in the explosion.
But none of those things happened.
Paul watched helplessly as he became part of the musical mob that infested the streets of Hatchetfield, singing and dancing as they went.
“Oh my God! Paul, y-you made it!”
Emma began to sob with relief in Paul’s arms. “We made it!”
Paul tried to pull away, but he knew it was hopeless.
Emma no I didn’t make it-Emma I’m sorry-Run away Emma-Emma run away from me-I’m not Paul anymore-Emma I’m sorry-
“Emma, I’m sorry”
Paul felt a chill run up his own spine as he heard those dreadful words being sung out of his own mouth. “You lost.”
He watched in horror as Emma pulled back and looked up at him with a strange nervousness in her beautiful eyes. Eyes that used to look at him with an odd admiration, but now with terror.
“Paul?” She asked quietly, her smile beginning to fade.
Paul wanted to scream. He tried to scream. The last thing he wanted was to be the cause of Emma losing her enchanting smile. He had very little control over his actions, but by God he was going to use that little control as much as he could.
Emma, listen to me. I’m not Paul. I’m sorry Emma, but I’m one of them. Please run. Get out of here. Emma, I’m sorry.
“Emma, I’m sorry you lost your way.”
NO-
“Paul, you’re scaring me-”
All he managed to do was widen his own eyes as he began to drag Emma across the street in a dance of death. He wanted to stop. He was scaring her. He didn’t want to scare her.
He heard himself sing, telling her that he was happy now. He wasn’t.
Emma struggled against his grip, and desperately tried to break free and run. She knew what had happened. What she didn’t know was that Paul was trying to stop himself. He was trying to break free too.
Don’t listen to himEmma, I’m not me anymoreHe is infectedI am notHe’s the monsterI’m still the man you trust
“I’m still the man you trust”
Paul cringed when he heard his personal words be sung by the monster that he had become.
Emma began to cry. “No, get away from me! You’re not Paul, you’re one of them!”
Tears started to form in Paul’s eyes, before trickling down his smiling face. He didn’t want to smile. He wanted to cry. More importantly, he wanted Emma to be safe.
To his own surprise, he let go of Emma.
This is your chance. Emma run now before I grab you again. Get to safety before I kill-
Kill. The thought hadn’t even occurred to him before now. What if he killed Emma? No, that was impossible. He could never do such a thing. He would rather kill himself before he killed Emma.
But you already did kill yourself, Paul. You killed yourself the moment you walked into that theater.
He screamed. Or at least, he wanted to. He yelled until his throat throbbed and his voice went hoarse. But he still hadn’t made a sound.
Except for the song that he was singing. He kept on telling her that it was inevitable for her to become infected.
It’s not inevitable, Emma. Run. Please Emma, just run.
He saw the others dancing with him, surrounding her: Bill, Ted, Mr Davidson, the Professor. All of them keeping Emma from escaping. He never hated them more than in that moment, not even Ted.
They started a kickline. A kickline of all things. Except Paul was physically kicking Emma, who herself screamed hysterically.
Stop you’re hurting Emma stop stop stop-
He stopped. Paul relaxed for a moment.
It didn’t last long.
They all began to close in around Emma, with himself leading.
Paul wanted to close his eyes. He wished for all of it to have been a nightmare. For him to wake up and for Emma to be safe. Hell, he’d rather have never met Emma than for this to happen.
But no, his eyes widened instead as she fell to the ground. He watched helplessly as the concoction of goo and saliva dripped from his own mouth into hers. Tears rushed down his face more frequently as she coughed and spluttered, before becoming silent.
Emma was dead. Paul killed her.
He wanted to mourn. He wanted to kneel next to her and cry. But his legs picked himself up again, and he started to walk away against his will.
Emma’s body may be lifeless, but Paul’s soul was as good as dead.
