Theatre Review: The Jinkx & DeLa Holiday Show 2022 (UK & North American Tour) ★★★★★

When Jinkx Monsoon delivered the sublime seasonal ballad Looking at the Lights with her warm, delectably velvet tones to a sold-out Town Hall in New York on Friday night, staged with elegant simplicity, looking directly into the eyes of her visibly moved showgirl partner in crime, BenDeLaCreme, its mournful but uplifting lyrics felt especially poignant. As Jinkx acknowledged when the pair took…

You know what I want to see, I want to see more of Steve, Eddie, and Robin being 1980s small town kids from Indiana, by which I mean;

Robin is The Source of Gay Knowledge purely because her parents host Hippie Christmas and she managed to sneak away to find a neat bookstore in Indiana once.

Her knowledge is not in depth. It's patchy, woven together through rumors, stories she heard or things she picked up from her parents' old pictures. She's got a handful of zines, one book, and some movies she managed to order for Family Video behind Keith's back.

She acts like she's Queen of the Queers because in Hawkins she pretty much is.

(Max and El ask her what a lavender marriage is once, something they overheard snooping around.

Robin confidentially answers that it's code for when one woman dresses up as a man, fooling officials into wedding two woman.

She does not live this down two years later when they find out what it actually means.)

Eddie doesn't spend every weekend in Indianapolis.

Gas is expensive, his busiest days of his "job" is Friday and Saturday, and he has no fucking clue what the hanky code is.

He's wearing that bandana because Metallica front singer James Hetfield has one on all their tour posters.

Eddie does make it down to a gay bar though, by accident. Rick needed some back up for a shady deal. Promised Eddie a boatload of free drugs to sell if he agreed to just stand there and look mean.

He was warned the bar they were meeting in was 'weird' and to not 'freak out' --which Eddie thought was hilarious given his nickname and general appearance, but whatever.

He doesn't understand when they get there, because it's just a bunch of hot men with hanky's in their back pockets everywhere.

Then he sees two women kissing and it clicks.

He can't out himself in front of Rick, but one of the bartenders playfully dresses him down for his own hanky, letting him know all about the code and teasing him through his embarrassment.

He's got an offer to come back and learn what color and which pocket his hanky should actually be in, a prospect Eddie was salivating at until Chrissy Cunningham up and died on his ceiling.

(He still wore the hanky, because the feeling of that bartender tugging it out and stuffing it back in might be the closest thing he's ever had to sex and he absolutely wants a repeat.

He's young and horny, sue him.)

Steve Harrington may not be academically smart but he's not dumb.

He figured out a while back that the basketball team as a unit probably crossed the queer line more than once--or at least it did before Hargrove came in.

( Brad Handly for example, went around slamming kids into lockers and screaming slurs like a fucking movie villain one Monday because the varsity team got dead drunk at Laura's party on Sunday and hey, look, there weren't that many girls there, okay?

They all had fucking hands and mouths. Everybody but Tommy was single and hot to trot. Nothing gay about it.

Its not even like they were kissing or treating each other like chicks. It was just Brad's first time and they got to tease him later for overthinking it.

Dude graduated soon enough after and given Steve was on the team as a sophomore, he hadn't thought about the guy and why he might be freaking out so bad in years.)

Robin's entire panic attack at Starcourt, and a few more after had Steve replaying that whole incident. Reframed it a bit, and, yeah.

In retrospect that had been extremely gay, actually.

It sat with him a lot easier than he'd thought it would. Partially because of Robin, but mostly because that's just who he was.

Stranger things had happened to Steve and this one didn't want to kill, maim or otherwise eat him, so it got filed under 'interesting facts he should never tell his parents if he wanted to keep his trust fund' and then he went about his day.

(Or he tried too, anyways.

It caught up to him when Eddie and Robin somehow figured out the other was queer and dragged him along to some bar Eddie had a standing invitation at, with demands for Steve to do what he did best.

Babysit.

Their magical trip was utterly destroyed when Brad Handly happened to be the very same bartender who had given Eddie the invite.

Considering Brad's immediate bark of laughter followed by a hug and introducing himself as "Steve's gay awakening", Steve ended up having to speedrun through Eddie and Robin both having a crisis for him.

It didn't help that Steve had politely, and laughingly, corrected Brad with a casual;

"Pretty sure that was Tommy man, but if it helps I think that tongue of yours gave Matt Burdon a crisis."

--which ended up with him answering a lot more gay sex questions with Brad than he cared too.

At least he, through Brad, was able to help Robin connect to some local lesbians and--after a second crisis from Eddie regarding how Steve managed to have more sex than "the resident town freak and guy who actually knew he was gay, Steve!"-- even helped Eddie out by catching the metalheads tongue with his mouth later that evening.

The last one landed him a boyfriend, trust fund be damned.)

#this started as thought and ended as a mini fic #filing this under shit I'm not expanding on #steddie #platonic stobin #its the “Eddie and Robin drag Steve to a Gay Bar” trope but with a twist #the twist is that Steve skipped his gay crisis entirely #and also that basketball team is not straight #steve harrington #eddie munson #robin buckley #I just want to re-invoke that pre internet feeling of "No one has an easy way to google whether or not their friend is right #so it comes down to who sounds right LOL #or whose known for what

When Eddie tells Dustin he's staying in a penthouse in San Francisco for the next 5 months to work on his next studio album, Dustin asks, "Have you ever been to the EndUp, Uranus, Junk or Osmosis?"

At first, Eddie doesn't really know what to say. He KNOWS the queer party scene in almost every major city in the western hemisphere, but Dustin?!

When he answers truthfully, "Not in the last eight months", Dustin only clicks his tongue and says, "Good."

And with that he starts talking about the DnD club, about that new girl in town and about how his mother has the hots for good ol' uncle Wayne.

If Eddie was a different person, he'd forget about it and also wonder how Mrs Henderson and Wayne actually happened.

But he's not.

Dustin mentioning the clubs is so random and so out of topic that Eddie's brain can't help but latch onto it.

At first, he only wonders why Dustin knows about the queer party scene of San Francisco and how he got to know about it. Was ist Robin?

Probably, with her living in San for the last few years, but that still doesn't explain why she told Dustin about the clubs.

Then, Eddie can't help but wonder why Dustin simply said 'Good' before changing the topic as if he never asked the question in the first place.

Why Good?

Sure, there's still the fear of Aids when going out, but its not as bad as in the early 80s.

His community - they got it now.

So, Eddie is almost sure that's not it.

At first, he tells himself he'll leave it alone - maybe only ask Dustin about it the next time they see each other. However, when he meets up with a friend at the Eagle for some drinks and a chat about music and his friends new love, he can wonders what he might find at any of the bars and clubs Dustin mentioned.

So, obviously, Eddie goes. Between sleepless nights off from writing and talking to his friends or manager on the phone, Eddie visits the scene in San Fran.

He goes dancing, grabs some drinks and even once hops into one of the dark rooms and gets a blowie from some random guy called Tex.

It's good, it's fun - but Eddie still doesn't understand why Dustin asked - until he sees him in club Uranus.

Or her.

Or, well... Stevie Devine.

Stevie Devine wears golden heels and lipsstick so dark it's almost black.

She has brown eyes like a baby deer, long brown hair and a black dress that twinkles with every move.

She laughs and sings while playing the piano and Eddie knows her.

Eddie and Steve talk on the phone about 5 times a year: for both theirs and Dustin's birthday, Christmas and the Upside Down anniversary, but the last time Eddie really saw Steve was in 1987.

It was for Robin's birthday when they all meet up before Eddie vanished on a tour through Europe with his band.

It was when they all thought they'd stay in contact more and life wasn't too demanding then.

Last time Eddie saw Steve, he had a purple eye and busted lips that closed around their shared joint they smoked right behind Buckley's garden shed.

But the Steve behind that shed in 1987 and Stevie Devine on that dimly lite stage in a queer club in San Francisco have absolutely nothing in common. The more Eddie stares at the tall, beautiful drag queen, the more he is sure that they simply cannot be the same person, right?!

But Stevie sees him, and after her show, she comes up to him and asks in a smokey voice, "Why are you here?!"

Eddie tells her - tells her about him staying in town to produce another album, to write and compose music, and that obviously, he -as a gay man- is allowed to visit all the bars.

"No. I mean, why are you here?!" Stevie asks, fingernails clicking against the table, and Eddie shrugs, blinks a few times, and then says, "Dustin mentioned something."

With that Stevie huffs, rolls her eyes and tells him to wait outside.

Eddie nods, but can't help but watch Stevie go, hips swinging, long legs striding through the room to vanish through a door to the back of the club.

Of course, Eddie waits outside, always eager to do what a beautiful person wants him to do.

He stands there, hands in his pocket, then in his hair, then rolling a cigarette before lightening it only to have something to do with his hands.

When the door opens about 20 minutes later its not Stevie Devine, but Steve Harrington with smudges of make-up on his face and a bag filled with golden heels, a black sequin dress and very long, but very fake brown hair.

"Knew I shouldn't have told Dustin," Steve says once he joins Eddie beside the club, reaching for Eddie's cigarette. His hand is broad and looks like it can hold a nail bat and smash interdimensional monsters to pulp, but he also has long nails and a simple silver ring around his wrist that makes it look almost dainty.

"He didn't really say anything, just asked me if I had been to any of the major queer clubs in the city. It got me interested," Eddie tells him honestly and lights another cigarette, unsure if Steve really would like to share. "Didn't expect to find you here."

There's a blush on Steve's face and his hand flits to his neck to brush some of his natural (also quite long) hair behind his ear before saying, "It's... a somewhat new thing."

"Somewhat?" Eddie asks, trying not to stare onto Steve's lips where he can still find traces of glitter and dark red paint.

Steve shrugs, laughs awkwardly and says, "You know how it is."

Eddie nods, yeah, he knows. Or at least, he can imagine what Steve means. So, he says, "You looked good on that stage."

Steve laughs and it almost sounds like his Drag Queen persona had sounded in the club: dark and sensual and somewhat forbidden.

"Thank you, you do look good on stage as well," Steve replies, flicks the burned down cigarette away and sends Eddie a blinding smile.

"You've been to one of my concerts?"

"Once or twice," Steve says, moves from one foot to the other. His feet must hurt after wearing the heels for the last few hours.

Eddie holds out his arm like a gentleman from the 18th, "Wanna grab a drink?"

"I would love to, but Robin and I always meet up after shows for milkshakes and fries, you're in?" Steve leans on him, long fingers gently curled around Eddie's arm.

"I would love to." Eddie repeats the words and follows Steve into the night..

Heavy Hearts Ch 5

Casey Novak x reader warnings: language, minor mentions of alcohol, just some holiday fluff.

Exams were over and it was Christmas vacation before you’d even realized it, a huge wave of relief flowing through you while you started to pack up your bags for New York. You’d been waiting for this moment forever, and even more so since Casey had brought it up, this was the vacation that you’d been dying for your entire life and it was about to finally happen. You’d asked multiple times about what you’d need to bring, gifts specifically, about how the Novak’s did Christmas, what kind of things to expect and Casey simply laughed you off. She assured you that her parents would very likely have a stocking for you but expected nothing in return. You gave her the side eye and reminded her you’d been raised to never arrive anywhere empty handed, she finally agreed to a couple boxes of chocolates, a couple of bottles of high end wine and some flowers for her parents.

Casey couldn’t help but smile at the dreamy look in your eyes from the moment you landed, taking in the Christmas decorations at the airport and the sparkling lights outside of it. She laughed softly at your surprise when her parents met the two of you at arrivals with huge smiles, warm hugs and the insistence that you call them Grace and Ben over the formal Mr./Mrs. Novak. They were full of joy and ready to hear all of your stories as they lead you to their car, asking questions about the school year, more details about how the two of you had met and what kind of plans you might get up to over the break. There wasn’t a single inclination of them not approving of you, no demands for the two of you to show up to every event they were going to, the amount of freedom surprising you more than you’d even expected. Casey couldn’t help but smile at the almost shy polite way you spoke and she more than adored the look in your eyes as you drove through the city, admiring all the sights, a happy smile on your face as you replied to the Novak’s questions and comments, Casey’s hand squeezing at your leg ever so softly.

The Novak’s had a brownstone on the Upper West Side, one that felt truly like a home, lived in and cozy, warm and welcoming to everyone who came through the front door. It was nicely decorated for Christmas, a large tree in the living room with piles of gifts underneath it, garland and lights strung throughout the house and wrapped around the banister of the stairs. Casey gave you the quick tour and then dragged you upstairs, pointing out her parents room, office, the upstairs bathroom and finally swung the door open to her room. It was average size with a nice view of the backyard, most importantly a queen sized bed she’d managed to rope her parents into getting her when she graduated high school. She’d claimed her room was technically the guest room now and company needed an adult sized bed so now when she was home for holidays, she’d won that one.

You half paid attention while she talked, rambling on about one thing or another, your gaze distracted as you looked through her room. A shelf of soft ball trophies, ribbons and pictures, one particularly adorable eight year old Casey with an even more adorable toothless grin showing off the ball from her first home run.

“You’re so fucking cute.” You turned back to her and she suddenly realized what you were looking at and a blush immediately took over her cheeks.

“Oh god, don’t look at those.” She stepped toward you in an attempt to drag you away and you simply laughed.

“Why not?” To fend off her protests you wrapped an arm around her, tugging her to you and pressing a kiss to her cheek, “first off; you’re fucking cute. Second, you love baseball and this is like a wall off accomplishments, that’s something to be proud of baby. Besides, if you hated it, you would’ve taken it down.”

“Okay, okay.” She grumbled in response but accepted the gentle kiss you left on her lips before turning back to the wall. There were a few other framed pictures, ones from high school graduation, a picture with her acceptance to Harvard and a few from around the city when she was growing up. You were about to tease her over which stuffed animal she liked the best when her mom popped up in the doorway with a quiet knock.

“Did you girls have any preferences for dinner? Stay in, take out, or go out?”

“I was gonna take her Coppola’s.” Casey replied, turning to face the door, “you guys can join too if you’d like.”

“Oh we don’t need to interrupt your first date night in the city.” Grace waved her off, “you two have fun just don’t stay out too late and call if you need a ride, you know I don’t like you on the subway after dark.”

“Kinda hard when the sun sets at five p.m.” Casey retorted and her mother rolled her eyes with a playful scoff.

“You know what I mean.” Grace tutted at her before flashing a warm smile to you and leaving back down the stairs.

“Are you hungry now?”

“Almost?” You replied with a laugh, “kinda wanna shower off the airplane grime before we go if that’s alright?”

“Yeah, of course.”

Coppola’s wasn’t far from the Novak’s house and considering Casey had told you to dress warmly, you had no problems with walking over to the restaurant. It was what you would call you standard New York Italian place, somewhere that was classy enough for a date night without being too fancy for a family dinner. It was mainly couples or all adult groups reuniting for the holiday, only a couple of kids in the entire place which made for an even nicer experience. You split fried zucchini and a burrata to start along with a nice bottle of wine before the main course of pasta came out. You’d opted for the pesto rigatoni while Casey went with lasagna. The meal was spent excitedly chatting about plans for the next two weeks, both things you had booked in advance and a few things that you were hoping to be able to squeeze in before having to roll back into school mode. Between it being the holiday season and being in a new city with the woman you cared most about in the entire world, there was a lot of excitement and positivity flowing through the air, winding around both of you. It was as if you both realized that you’d broken out of the bubble that you were in at Harvard, that you were out in the real world together with all new experiences and challenges. Sure, it was the holidays and those were always meant to be joyous, but they could also be incredibly stressful, if you could make it through the two weeks with no issues, you were sure that you were meant to be.

You could tell by both the grin on her cheeks and the glimmer in her eye that Casey had something up her sleeve and after hopping on the subway you realized exactly why she’d told you to bundle up a bit more than normal.

Arriving at Rockefeller Center nearly took your breath away, letting out a little squeal of excitement that Casey couldn’t help but giggle at, wrapping an arm around you and kissing your cheek. She pulled a disposable camera from her purse and the two of you spent a big chunk of time playing tourist, taking pictures in front of the tree and all around the market. She then surprised you with the last reservation of the evening for skating and you got to live out one of your lifelong dreams of actually being on the rink at Christmas. No matter how cheesy it was to anyone else you were having the time of your life zipping around on the ice with a bright smile on your face, pausing as often as you could to pepper Casey’s face with thank you kisses, continuing to skate hand in hand.

By the time you got back to the brownstone you were both fully wiped, saying a brief goodnight to her parents before swapping out in the shower and finally curling up in bed together. It was certainly safe to say that this was without a doubt going to be the best Christmas you’d had so far.

You woke up a little alter the next morning, not sure if it was just the difference of not being at school anymore, vacation life so to say, or how much you’d done the day before. Casey’s side of the bed was still relatively warm, but she was long gone and you could hear a small rumbling of noise from downstairs. You stretched out your body, letting out a little groan as you did so before snagging one of Casey’s hoodies to pull on over your pyjamas and making your way downstairs.

“Hey baby.” Casey greeted with a bright smile, wrapping an arm around your waist, pressing a kiss to your cheek. “Coffee?”

“Please.” You smiled back, kissing her quickly and following her into the kitchen.

“Girls, breakfast is in the oven keeping warm.” Grace called from the dining room and you both called back a quick thank you as Casey mixed your coffee exactly as you liked it.

The two of you plated up breakfast, scoops of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes smothered in maple syrup and fruit from a bowl on the counter. You moved your way into the dining room to join Casey’s parents, settling at the table with warm smiles and quick hellos.

“This is delicious. Thank you.” You exclaimed, flashing a smile to Casey’s parents.

“The least we could do.” She smiled back, letting the two of you get some food in you before she spoke again. “So y/n,” You glanced up, “you were in D.C before Harvard, do you think you’ll end up back there, maybe some political law in your future?”

“God no!” You let out a bark of a laugh, “politics are quite honestly the worst, I’d much rather prefer to settle here. It’s kinda always been my dream to live in New York, and why not start my life out here after law school? I’ve always liked the east coast, and as much as I don’t want my dad’s help he’s offered to set me up with a couple of internships in the city over summer, so…”

“So you’ll be back?” Benjamin asked and you nodded with a small smile, feeling Casey’s hand affectionately squeezing at your thigh.

“That’s the plan!”

“Well if you need a place to stay over the summer you’re always welcome here.” Grace smiled brightly at you and you felt your cheeks flush.

“Thank you, so much.”

“Well of course!” She exclaimed, “I’m not sure if Casey told you but we do generally head to the Hamptons for the second half of summer break but if you’re stuck in the city we can get you your own key to the house if you need.”

“Now you’re just being over polite.” You laughed.

“Maybe I’ll stay here with you.” Casey commented, leaning in to kiss your cheek, “it’d probably be a good idea to try and get some work in the city prior to graduation.”

“Hey, I’m only doing it to get away from a summer in D.C.” You pecked her quickly, “hopefully I can lie my way out of it.”

“Ah, you should still get the experience.” Benjamin half teased and you laughed, holding back the eye roll before the conversation moved onto other things.

You couldn’t help but glance around the table and for once had a warmth spreading through your chest at a family breakfast. The Novak’s had been incredibly welcoming and kind, letting you into their lives without so much as a slight hesitation, like they knew that they would be seeing plenty more of you over the years and were excited for that future. When you glanced up at Casey and she shot you a dazzling smile you felt your cheeks heat, butterflies in your stomach as you thought about spending the summer with her in the city, how you’d get to explore the place you wanted to settle down and spread roots, hopefully with her at you side.

The two of you were upstairs, cuddled up on Casey’s bed watching through a Home Alone marathon when Casey’s lips hit your neck, pressing soft kisses to it before nipping at your skin and you let out a small giggle.

“Stop.” You laughed, swatting at her and she laughed.

“Tell me something.” She straightened up behind you and you rolled on her pillow to face her, “would you… really want to come spend the summer out here? With me?”

“Case…” you practically melted, “of fucking course I would! I consider myself incredibly lucky to get to spend as much time with you as I already do. I didn’t think for a million years that we’d get to actually spend Christmas together, I mean, this is the best holiday break I’ve ever had and I know you have more up your sleeve to make it amazing…”

“Oh now you’re just getting soft.” She teased, feeling the butterflies in her stomach as she leant down to kiss you.

She’d known for a while now that she was falling in love with you, there was no doubt in that and she would never forget it. But she felt herself melt at the sheer thought of you potentially falling in love with her too, she’d never really thought it would happen, that she would find someone she wanted to be with for a substantial length of time. Sure, a partner here or there along the way but she’d never had someone like you cross her path and she was certain she would never want to let you go, that you were just the person she’d been waiting for.

“Okay.” She grinned widely, nudging at your side to urge you to sit up, “I know we said we were gonna do presents in the morning but I can’t fucking keep secrets any longer and I need you to open it.” You laughed as you watched her climb off the bed over to the mini tree in the corner of her room where you’d put your presents the day you arrived. She picked up both the one labelled with your name and the one you’d wrapped for her, crossing back over to the bed.

“Secret teller or not, you’re going first.” You cast her a grin and she nearly rolled her eyes but accepted.

“Fine.” The fake scowl on her cheeks turned into an excited grin and she tore into the paper before gently prying the lid off the box. Inside she found a smaller box beside a couple pieces of higher end make up she’d been eyeing the last time the two of you had gone shopping together.

“I knew you’d be pouting about it if they didn’t turn up at Christmas.” You said with a tease and she laughed.

“Thank you.” She smiled warmly at you before plucking the smaller box from her gift and lifting the lid, “baby…” Her eyes shot up to yours with a small gasp at the sight of the sapphire earrings inside.

“You said you wanted birthstone earrings, how am I supposed to say no?”

“These are gorgeous!”

“Not as gorgeous as you wearing them.”

“Oho,” she laughed, “you’re a smooth talker now.” With a laugh you leant in, kissing her gently, “thank you.” She then shoved at your leg, “okay, your turn!”

Your fingers slipped into the bag, pulling out the tissue paper and you let out a little gasp at the face sheet masks you pulled out, “they discontinued these! Where did you find them?!”

“We all have our secrets.” She grinned, watching as you pulled out the other object. A large, three wicked candle, “once you burn it down there’s a special surprise inside.”

“Hmm…” you raised a brow in her direction, wondering just what she was eluding to, pulling the top off the candle to get a whiff. “This.. this smells exactly like your perfume.”

“They can do custom made scents for you.”

“Oh my god that’s amazing.” You grinned, “I love it, for real. If I ever get stuck at home I can still pretend it’s like you’re there.” You leant in once again, kissing her for longer this time, one of her hands coming up to caress your cheek. “Thank you.”

“Merry Christmas baby.”

“Merry Christmas.”

The next few days were full of holiday fun and Christmas cheer. Casey’s parents had stockings for the both of you to open on Christmas morning, little things like chocolates, treats, cute mittens and the like. The four of you spent most of the day lounging around watching holiday favourite movies and television episodes, drinks were handed out halfway through the afternoon. Benjamin and Grace started on dinner around then, you were both thanked profusely for helping in the kitchen and shooed away on the fact that you were a guest within the same twenty minutes.

Casey took you to see the Rockette’s the next day as promised and it was absolutely everything that you had ever dreamed of, smiling the entire way through it.

The Novak’s guided you through the city, though Casey would have been able to do it herself, but it was a nice way for everyone to really get to know each other over the break rather than just run off on your own. You hit up a few touristy spots, along with some of their favourite places in the city and the best restaurants you could imagine.

You were surprised on New Year’s Eve with tickets to a river cruise on the Hudson. An opportunity to dress up and feel fancy, eating hors d’oeuvres with a drink in your hand as you explored the boat. It was a balmy night, warm enough to actually enjoy being on the outer deck to watch the city breeze by. The bar was open, there was an onboard DJ, and plenty of fun to go around. Champagne was handed out shortly before midnight, bottomless glasses of course, and you and Casey found a nice spot on the outer deck for the best view of an incredible fireworks show.

They were projecting Times Square onto a huge screen on the upper deck so everyone could watch the ball drop, Casey slipped back into your embrace easily, passing you a fresh glass of champagne as you pressed a kiss into her cheek. She wrapped an arm around your waist, hugging you to her as everyone started to cheer, joining in on the countdown with bright smiles on your faces. There was an excitement in the air that neither of you had really felt before on New Year’s Eve. Sure, there’d been some form of party every year, but this was your first one with someone that you actually cared about to celebrate with. As the clock struck midnight a chorus of ‘Happy New Year’ rang through the air with more cheers and yells, Casey’s hand brushed against your cheek, tilting your chin up to her. You simply savoured the moment, drinking each other in briefly, wild smiles on your faces, eyes full of adoration for each other and this special moment before she ducked down, kissing you tenderly. You felt so full of emotion that you were sure you were about to burst, like this was what special holidays were supposed to be about, surrounded by happiness and being with the person you cared about the most.

Casey nuzzled her nose against yours and you giggled, the sound pulling at her heart strings before she turned you in her arms, wrapping around your back tightly right as the first firework burst into the sky. Another chorus of glee broke out from the other guests on the boat, watching the colours explode, glittering against the stars. You couldn’t resist, tilting your head on Casey’s shoulder so you could see her face, a small grin on your cheeks as you did so. Her gaze was directed toward the sky, a dreamy smile on her face and you could see the fireworks reflecting in her eyes. But that wasn’t the only thing that was making them sparkle and you knew it.

Casey felt you shift on her shoulder, knowing that you were watching her but she kept watching the fireworks. She knew that if she caught your eye in that moment she would simply explode, there was no doubt in her mind this was the happiest she had been in a very long time, maybe even ever. Every holiday break at home was full of all the same activities, had been since she was a kid, but there was something so wonderfully special about this one and she knew it was you. Suddenly, you nudged at her side softly, your voice nearly a whisper over the noise on the boat.

“Case…”

“Yeah?” She finally risked the glance down at you, her heart fluttering at the way your eyes were beaming up at her. Your cheeks were tinged a slight pink and she wasn’t sure if it was the chill in the night air or something else. You ducked your eyes with a small giggle before gazing back up at her,

“I love you…”

It was as if her entire chest burst in time with the next firework, a bright smile exploding on her face as she let out a tiny laugh, tears of joy pricking into her eyes. Her hand cupped at your cheek, pulling you to her for a passionate kiss, one that neither of you ever wanted to end.

“I love you too.” She whispered back, her words breezing into your lips, melting into your skin to remain there forever.

Casey knew with certainty that it didn’t matter where in the world she was, what kind of Christmas or New Year’s she had, a lavish cocktail party, or curled up in pyjamas on the couch, all she wanted was to ring in every new year from now on with you. There was no better feeling than you in her arms, the warmth of your lips against hers, the adorable way you giggled more frequently when tipsy, you were all she wanted, and you loved her.

This has been in my drafts I keep going back to it bc I have so many opinions it changes so quickly and I didn’t want to leave anyone out but this is the most accurate today.

Current:

Gigi, Denali, and Jan

(Gigi because DUH, I’m fully in love with her end of story I’d drop everything in my life for her. Denali because she started this blog and I’ve been thinking about her literally every day since s13 I’m obsessed with her doing stupid tik tok dances and being incredible and having that ass. And Jan because I adore her, I think she’s a star, and i cried watching her sing O Holy Night live and my friend who was with me and didn’t know i was a big emotional baby until I warned her said 👀)

All Time: (sorry, I rant)

Adore

-I’m emotional. She’s the first queen I ever saw. Literally the first instance I got to witness drag was at one of her shows right before s6 came out I think. Either right before or during it airing? Anyway small town me finally living in a city saw her on that stage and was mesmerized and I remember her singing “I Adore You” vividly and I met her twice and both times she told me I was “so fucking cute and small” and that was the beginning of gay clubs and me finding myself and I just. I will always love her endlessly she’s my top tier, my everything. She’s always going to be my number 1.

Rosé

It’s her talent. Her TALENT. her musical theatre talent. And her charm. And her dancing. And the way she carried herself during her season. It felt like they kept wanting to give her a villain storyline and she didn’t take the bait. And then for a while it felt like they simply didn’t care about her. And she just is so multifaceted, I think her drag is smart and polished while still being humorous which I love. I also love that she’s fully aware of how good she is, a girl isn’t afraid to just randomly do a run while on live but she’ll refuse to release a damn Christmas song because it’s not perfect enough yet. Also have you seen her spin like she’s the happiest person around bc I die.

Katya:

I fell in love with her early on in my love of drag just bc I think her humor is so interesting, I think she’s SO fucking smart and I just like the way she is unapologetic in herself and I loved that about her all throughout her season, I always thought she was a star. She just makes me laugh and I think she has this sort of way of seeing the world and interacting with the world sometimes as if it’s the best place and the best time and it’s so contagious, I’d like to have more of that attitude in my life. Like. When she’s really full on in a joke, or some of the tour videos where she’s rolling on the floor or being stupid dancing of what have you, I love that energy. I heavily aspire to bring people that energy. She’s just brilliant.

#I’m so sorry this is so fucking long #honorable mentions to LADY CAMDEN wtf I’m sorry she’s half of this name but Gigi said ‘hi bitch’#also to Shea and Nicky and A’Whora and Tayce and Mik #oh god see someone send help #AND ALASKA BC SHE WAS SO FUCKING NICE WHEN WE GOT TO MEET HER WTF #also shouts out to my fave local queen Arabella LaDessé my sister and I are fully obsessed with her she’s incredible #Gigi also will probably move up to all time i see that happening

happy 26th birthday, baby. @hvmmings

i’m so lucky to have you as my husband and each day with you is a gift i don’t take for granted. i can’t wait to celebrate you today, tomorrow, every single day of the rest of our lives. you’ve went through so much and have come out of it as a beautiful, caring, special soul and thank you for letting me be part of this journey. you make every room a little brighter, a little happier and you’re the eternal sunshine of my life. i’m not sure i can top the surprise you gave me, but i’m sure going to try. thank you for being you and thank you for being mine. i love you, i love you, i love you.

you love your boots, so adding another one to your collection. christian louboutin angels boots, just seemed perfect.

i know how much you love rings, so this rose gold black onyx heart ring from Chopard is another reminder of how much of my heart you carry with you.

some sweet birthday cupcakes for you. four of them are vegan, two regular. you know, for those cheat days of yours. xo

since Aquaria is your favourite drag queen, i managed to score a little private drag lesson from her. she’ll teach you some tricks of the trade, makeup tips and lunch is also provided.

i know you were super bummed we didn’t get to see a ballet during the European tour, so i’ll be taking you to see the Nutcracker in New York City just before Christmas. great seats, obviously.

as for where we’ll be staying, i’ve booked us the skyline suite at the Mandarin Orient hotel in New York City, which includes every single spa treatment available.

happy birthday, my love.

Ash xo

From the Archive. Watch: Alaska - Everyday Is Christmas

New Post has been published on https://qnews.com.au/watch-drag-star-alaska-makes-everyday-christmas/

From the Archive. Watch: Alaska - Everyday Is Christmas

RuPaul’s Drag Race alum Alaska Thunderfuck has released her music video for the festive Everyday is Christmas.

Scroll down for the vid.

In 2015, Alaska Thunderfuck released what QNews thought would become an instant Christmas classic. Oh well… we’ve been wrong before. Like that time we said the baby Jesus would be back any day now…

First published November 20, 2015 by Staff Writers.

Update by Destiny Rogers December 23, 2023.

The original 2016 article

The track is taken from the recently released Christmas Queens album, on which a roster of Drag Race favorites came together to put their spin on holiday classics. Aussie queen Courtney Act sings From Head To Mistletoe.

Alaska’s Everyday is Christmas video begins appropriately festive but ends with her taking a chainsaw to her Christmas tree. 🎄

“I think Christmas is a time for the whole family. I wanted a song my 6-year-old niece could listen to in the car,” Alaska told Billboard.

“‘Everyday is Christmas’ sounds like a sweet sentiment, but in reality if every day were actually Christmas it would be a candy cane-riddled hellscape from which the human race could never awaken.

“So we’re lucky it is just a lighthearted Christmas tune.”

Alaska Thunderfuck – Everyday Is Christmas

So are you Team Couldn’t Give a Thunderfuck or Team Keep it Cumming?

We’ll keep it cumming:

Alaska Thunderfuck unites the Avengers of Drag for Drag: The Musical.

Drag Race star Alaska drops new music, book and tour.
