Fame carries along a thrill that most people would yarn for, a stroke of the ego that gives you that ‘on top of the world’ feeling. Yes, it does have its perks, such as adoration, attention, wealth, special treatment, doors to new opportunities, and confidence but all these come at a price (substance abuse). Most celebrities today would trade their spotlight for just a day as an average middle-class person, the mundane life. This is because once the spotlight is on, it never leaves; fame comes at the expense of your privacy due to public scrutiny. The constant pressure of perfection develops gradually and before you know it, you lose the simple pleasures of life like going for an uninterrupted stroll, shopping at the mall, quiet family dinners at a fancy restaurant or something as mundane as reading your favorite book at a park becomes a nightmare – well unless you own the park. More often than not, you are either ditching the paparazzi, denouncing a rumor on the tabloids, or even filing for a restraining order against a stalker. You also get to notice the fake friends that always tag along with you. Seen the pattern yet? This kind of lifestyle tends to take a toll on an individual and provoke them to seek a coping mechanism. A window that has led many high-profile individuals, especially in the art and entertainment industries, into substance abuse and addiction. This is evidenced by a Study published in 2016 on Substance Abuse Treatment, Prevention, and Policy which confirmed there have been about 300 substance abuse-related celebrity deaths recorded between 1970 and 2015. Of this number, 38.6% were musicians, 23.2% were actors, and the remaining shared between artists from other fields and writers. Moreover, numerous artists have come out and confessed their battle with addiction and alcoholism over the years. From Robert Downey Jr. alias Iron Man to Demi Lovato, Bradley Cooper, Drew Barrymore, Ben Affleck, Keith Urban, and Amber Valletta, the list is endless. On that note, this article will look into Zac Efron drug addiction. Zac Efron’s confession about alcohol and cocaine addiction It was only a few years ago that Zachery David Alexander Efron, a mainstream television star publicly opened up about his battle with alcoholism and cocaine addiction. The now 35-year-old American actor had his television debut in the early 2000s in a show called Firefly which earned him a leading role in the High School Musicals as Troy Bolton; a position which rose him to fame and opportunities. Efron has featured in Hairspray which premiered in 2007, 17 Again (2009), New Year’s Eve (2011), The Lucky One (2012), and swiftly transitioned into leading adult roles such as in the Neighbors (2014), Dirty Grandpa (2016) and much more – including a Netflix documentary titled Down To Earth With Zac Efron which won him the Daytime Emmy Award. When did addiction begin? With such an accomplished acting career, Efron disclosed the pressure it put on his life – balancing between his 16-hour-a-day work schedule, media intrusion, and his personal life. It was all too much. “I had done films back-to-back-to-back. I was burned out. Something was lacking; some sort of hole that I couldn’t really fill up. I was just so deep into my work; it was really the only thing I had.” ~ Efron told a Hollywood reporter in an interview. He was constantly stressed out and sought comfort in alcohol and drugs. In addition, Efron was in fear of being in the public eye which made him give up some of his hobbies too. This way, he was left isolated and could hardly notice his growing cocaine addiction and alcoholism which led him to implicitly take some time out for treatment in 2013, after which he disclosed was in rehab. He further expounded, “I mean, you’re in your 20s, single, going through life in Hollywood, “ added Efron, “everything is thrown at you. I wouldn’t take anything back. I needed to learn everything I did.” He further narrated how he would Google his name to see what others’ perceptions of him were.

After his confession, Efron felt a weight lift off his chest because no matter how hard he tried to hide his addiction, the truth always catches up and he decided to face it head-on. How did Efron recover? Addiction recovery is a progressive journey that continues way after rehab. Zac Efron developed a structure of life through his recovery journey. As he puts it, “What I found is structure that led me to a balance of opposites. You get out of life what you put in.” He joined the Alcoholics Anonymous group which helped him through his new life of purpose and even embarked on surfing and skateboarding – his hobbies. Course of action Efron was not the first, and neither will he be the last of his kind to fall into the trap of drug abuse and addiction. However, all is not lost. From the many elite figures who’ve spoken up, their confessions can be used to sensitize the upcoming generation on matters of fame and drug addiction. If at all anything can be done to help new famous personalities get some skin in the game, it would be to raise awareness and adapt coping mechanisms to help deal with stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, and emotions. Therapy can also go a long way to ease the transformation process. Self-monitoring would keep one alert to their social habits and note a potential problem slowly unfolding. Further expound on the stages of alcoholism to know when you, or a loved one, needs professional help. Whether a diagnosed addict or not, enroll in an AA meeting to meet like-minded individuals and personalities who have been down the road of addiction and recovery. It always helps to know you are not alone and others have succeeded in fighting this disease. Lastly, always practice self-care. At the end of a busy day, take some time off to eat a nutritious meal, relax, meditate and take care of yourself.

this is a sean from endless summer hate account fr what is wrong with his arrogant and self righteous ass??? the whole troy bolton complex is so tired and the whole jab about him thinking he's the supreme leader is so true like??? you're a random jock at uni, you're not even good enough of a leader or friend for your bsf to tell you what's upsetting him and you wanna organise the apocalypse???? "i thought you were better than this" we met two days ago and youve acted like a dick since then??? in every single playthrough i prioritise everyone else's friendship points above his, like i like aleister better.

like ive played the whole thing while romancing quinn and jake before, and ive considered doing an estela playthru too, but you couldn't pay me to touch him with a ten foot pole.

I like me better when I’m with you ~Part 2.

There’s so little Steve in this, but he’ll be in the next parts all. the. time! And yeah, I named the coach after Troy Bolton from HSM. I can totally imagine him as a strict PE teacher if his music career didn't work out... Anyways, hope you guys will like it! Gif not mine.

summary: based on ‘To All The Boys I Loved Before’. Y/N Henderson used to be in love a couple of times. This time she’s sure it’s something bigger, something serious. Her love for Jonathan Byers is unlimited, untamed and endless. At least she thought so. Read Part 1 here.

That kiss.

Steve couldn't concentrate. Why now, after all this time? From what he remembered the last time you guys talked, he was about your brother's age. Your contact was limited to a short "hello" in the hallway and waving at each other in town. Nothing else.

He kissed you because Carol couldn't shut up. He remembered perfectly well how his dad let him sit behind the wheel of his car and little Steve invited to Y/N, Carol and Tommy, his best friends so far. Carol made fun of Y/N all day because she had never been kissed before. There is nothing wrong with that, but little Y/N was so embarrassed that Steve did what he thought was right. He leaned out of the driver's seat and gently kissed the little girl's mouth so that Carol could choke on her chewing gum for once.

Only a year later, Y/N realized that Tommy and Carol were not the people she wanted to deal with. She thought they were egotistical, mean, and idiots enjoying others' failures. And she was right. Steve didn't understand that until now. Too bad he figured it out too late.

“Dude, what's going on? Focus before Billy kicks our ass even more, come on!” His teammate hit him on the shoulder. Steve twisted his head and wiped out all the intrusive thoughts. “Yeah, Steve. Concentrate. We don't want anything to happen to you" Billy said sarcastically. It doesn’t matter why she sent the letter. You can't play with someone's feelings. He wanted to explain it as gently as he could and maybe he did. He didn't find out because Y/N ran away as soon as Jonathan got on the field.

But why she was scared of Jonathan Byers?

“Girl, come on” Robin sighed, leaning her hands on her school locker. You sat down on the floor and pulled your knees up to your chest, holding them with your hands to keep them from shaking. You wanted to cry, scream, vomit, or do it all at once. Steve got a letter. Your letter. It didn't belong to him, it belonged to you. Although it was addressed to him, your thoughts, your feelings were there. He should never have read it. Not to mention Jonathan. “Please, I'm starting to worry. What the hell did he tell you?”

“Robin...” Your voice broke down when you tried to speak. “He... he got a letter”. “What letter?” Your friend pushed herself away from the locker. “From who? What was in it?”

“From me” You said, raising your head a little. The corridor was empty because everyone was in class. Only an angry coach could show up here at any time. You clenched your fingers so tightly on your shirt that your ankles got whacked. “But please promise me you won't laugh”.

“I don't feel like laughing. But I feel like I'm way too sober for this”. “I... you know I'm not good at talking about my feelings. It's much easier for me to write about them. So... so when I really care about someone, I write a letter to that person. I confess my love, I say what I like about that person and how much I care about them... and that's it. I put the envelope on and hide the letter in the room. It's just that... someone sent them. Somebody had to, because Steve and Jonathan got theirs.”

Robin was quiet for a while. She bit her lower lip, started going back and forth around the hallway, removing nail polish until she stopped next to you. “Normally, I'd probably say something funny, but it's not funny at all”. “I think I'm gonna throw up” you said quietly. Robin gathered your hair into a ponytail. “Calm down” she said and sat next to you on the dirty floor. “Just take a deep breath”.

“Take a deep breath? It feels like my insides are being ripped out” you said devastated. “How many letters did you write?” Robin asked. You showed her five fingers. “Do I know the others?”. “One of them goes to school with us. I don't have any contact with the other two” you answered. “I can understand absolutely everything, but... Steve? Stephen Harrington? When was that? Why don't I know anything about it?”.

“So long ago we didn't know each other” you smiled at each other. “In seventh grade. I was friends with him... and with Tommy and Carol. But those two are assholes, and I realized that early on, so I stopped hanging out with them. Steve gave up our friendship for the sake of friendship with Tommy and Carol. We don't talk from now on. But it used to be different”.

“Y/N, you in there?” someone asked, suddenly showing up in the hallway. You knew that voice. You didn't remember exactly from where, but it was definitely familiar, the name of its owner was at the end of your tongue.

“We're in the middle of something” Robin muttered when Stanley from the homecoming who should be in class now stood over you, his sneakers were squealing on the linoleum. He just stood there for a while and stared at you until he started rocking on his feet and waved in front of his face with a blue envelope. Robin whistled loudly.

“So this is the third one” she muttered. Stanley scratched himself in the back of the neck. “Look, I didn't mean to barge in on you. I saw you run in here from the pitch, and I wanted to make sure you're okay, and, uh...” he gave you an envelope. You took it carefully in your hands, and pressed it against your chest. “Thought you might want that back. It seemed a little personal”.

“Yeah, it is” you said, looking away from him and Robin. Your heart was beating in your chest, not wanting to calm down. “I wrote it years ago. It should never have reached you... but it did”. “I had a lot of fun that night too” the boy smiled. Robin raised her eyebrow. “At the homecoming. But... Y/N don't get me wrong, you're great, but... generally, I don't like girls... like at all”.

“Well, well. Generally I don't like boys, like, at all” Robin smiled fiercely. Stanley looked at her surprised, but in this positive sense. “You're gonna get along with each other” you waved the envelope, afraid you'd faint without air. “Here's what we gonna do” Robin turned around, still sitting with her legs crossed and grabbed your hands. “You're gonna go back home and make sure Dustin has nothing to do with it. Search your room carefully, maybe the other two are still there”.

“Even if, those three could ruin my life the most. No offense” you said, and Stan raised his hands. “Dustin certainly didn't do it. That's not possible. He wouldn't have a reason”. “You think so. You never know. Go and call me. I'll cover for you.”

“From Coach Bolton? He'll never forgive you this” Stan grumbled dissatisfied. “Thank you, Stanley. That comment was completely unnecessary” Robin rolled her eyes. Everything seemed to be passing at an accelerated rate. Staying in the dressing room, coming home on a bike, as if time had decided to help you and let you go home as soon as possible. Mom was already inside, just like Dustin. You ran up the stairs so fast that you stepped on Mews' tail and she was furious.

“Y/N! What’s the meaning of this, you didn't see her or what?!” mom was screaming completly outrageous, but you didn't listen to her. You fell into the room, stopped on the bed and took the vinyl off the shelf.

It was empty.

You looked under the bed, under the desk and under the dresser. Shit, you even looked under the carpet and pillows. Nothing. Nothing at all.

“You took anything out of my room?” you asked when you went into Dustin's room. “Why would I?” your brother break away from his homework for a while “I'm not getting excited about your bras”.

“When the last time party was here, or whoever was in my room?” you asked. Dustin didn't answer, so you ripped his math notebook from him. “Yes or no?” “Jesus Christ” Dustin rolled his eyes. “I don't know. I don't control them. I just let Max in. They were messing with Lucas and he poured hot chocolate on her shirt. I said she could take something of yours, so I gave her a little privacy. But she already gave it back. It's in the laundry basket.”

“It's not about the stupid shirt...” you just shut up, left the room and went back to yours. “Hey... Hey! What is it? You don't think she stole something...” your brother's voice was jammed by the sound of the door closing. You slammed it a little too much. You slid slowly to the ground, pushing your back against the wall.

The letters are out. They're out. There's nothing you can do about it. Happiness in misery, Chris's letter was adressed to the bunks at the camp, so at least he'll never know how cute he looked in his swimsuit.

“You got the letter” Dustin knocked slowly into your room, but you didn't say anything. “It's from... from some Ralph. From Florida. Mom says the chicken will be ready soon”.

And he slipped a brown envelope through a gap under the door. Ralph's not Steve, Stan, or Jonathan, so his answer probably wouldn't have caused any emotion, but your heart literally stopped beating when you reached for the letter. But it wasn't an answer. Ralph just sent your letter back. No message, no comment. He just returned something that never belonged to him.

You hid your face in your hands, trying to calm down. Today you managed to escape from Jonathan, which was great, but you can't do it forever, not every day until the end of school. Sooner or later you will have to talk to him. If not with him, you'll have to talk with Nancy. What if he told her? What if she already knows and now she hates you with all her heart?

Dear Jonathan. There are songs you can't listen to without thinking about a particular person. There are movies where the characters experience something so wonderful that you'd like to be in their place. And there are people you just can't fall in love with. I think I found one.

Shut up. Don't think about it. Call Robin. Tell her the situation is looking hopeless and lock yourself in your room for the rest of your life. When you got up to grab the phone, when the tears were squeezing into your eyes because it was all fucking unrealistic, mom screamed from the living room.

"Y/N! Jonathan is waiting for you downstairs! Come say hi!"

(except archie, i think he did better in s2)... really????? i mean, he had some good characterization there but also. the red circle. he joined the mafia too (but as a varchie shipper i can look past that because he kind of did it for veronica and his endless devotion to her is everything) but. the red circle. i hate that storyline 😭

I DO THINK HE DID BETTER IN S2.

yes, the red circle was stupid, but it was riverdale’s stupid ways of showing how a young, traumatized man can be seduced into viewing authoritarianism as a valid way to deal with the root of his trauma, and that was perhaps one of the most brilliant subplots riverdale ever did? only to find out that whoever he’s supporting is actually corrupt, but he’s already been so involved with the whole thing that he just dives in until it comes around to bite him back, because you can never win when dealing with a tyrant? like... ok, please, they obviously didn’t need to be shirtless and borderline bdsm in that video, but the whole storyline was GOOD.

archie in season one was just a lost kid, in season two someone takes this lost kid and sends him into a very dark path and he still manages to get out of it with his own hands. in season 2b, archie slowly starts to realize how absurd this whole thing revolving hiram is (veronica does too, but obviously the writers didn’t let her evolve) and turns around against what he helped build himself. it’s a lot more interesting than his troy bolton dilemma, even though i do love season one archie a lot, his traumas weren’t explored then, and in s2 they were in a slightly satisfying way (for riverdale, at least).

also i like how it shows that even with his love for ronnie blinding him a little (it was never her fault anyway), archie is not just an “idiot”, he’s actually very observant, detailed oriented, and a natural leader.

i don’t even like season 2 as whole, but as a character arc, it was the best archie has ever had (along with his resistance to fight in s3 but that’s another story) and the stupid attempt to recreate it in s4 was just dumb.

anyway, archiekins✨

I like me better when I’m with you ~Part 2.

This fic was posted first on my main blog which is captainelsaeverdeen. I started my own blog only for my imagines and I moved all my work from there to here. Hope you guys would enjoy this! <3

There’s so little Steve in this, but he’ll be in the next parts all. the. time! And yeah, I named the coach after Troy Bolton from HSM. I can totally imagine him as a strict PE teacher if his music career didn’t work out… Anyways, hope you guys will like it! Gif not mine.

CREATOR SPOTLIGHT: Emma (@oliviasrodrigo)

Support your local gif makers! In celebration of my one year gif-iversary, I am posting shoutouts to gif makers who have motivated and inspired me with their creativity in the past year. This post is for Emma, whose gifs can be found here.

There are honestly a million words I could say about Emma and her gifs. Emma is supportive, kind, and enthusiastic. She is a master of pouring her heart out in tags, and she never lets hard work go unnoticed. She spreads positivity generously, and she makes all creators feel valued and appreciated. She emits endless good vibes, and for the past few months, I have been posting gifsets, eagerly awaiting her fun and kind comments, and my interactions with her have honestly been a highlight of my time on this site. Emma is a wonderful role model for creators supporting creators.

In terms of her gifs, Emma’s strength is in her consistency. She has taken the time to hone her skills in sharpening, coloring, and text effects to the point where she is able to produce wonderfully original, high quality work that fits within her personal brand. She has a unique voice and style that finds its way into every single one of her edits. She is a gift not only to the HSMTMTS fandom, but the creative community in general for her brilliant creations and endless benevolence.

MUST-SEE EDITS

East High Theater Bonds - This gifset is a perfect culmination of all of Emma’s special skills; from the text effects, to the color scheme, to the attention to detail, this set shines. Emma is well known for her artistic, colorful use of text, and in this set she used a creative, eye-catching font combination and a gorgeous outer glow effect to make her text pop. The color scheme of this set is subtle, yet pronounced and accented by the perfectly coordinated glow of the words. I aspire to be this adventurous and creative with text effects. Through this set, Emma also showed her eye for detail, as she matched quotes from conversations between the characters with adorable depictions of their friendships, showing the love and care that the theater kids have for each other.

HSMTMTS imdb - This gifset is absolutely stunning for its bright, vibrant coloring and unique concept. In this set we see strong, unifying reds mixed in with soft, expressive yellows. Emma managed to keep this color scheme while depicting some particularly high-motion scenes, such as Gina’s complex dance routine in the bottom right corner, and the basketball players in the top right corner. The gif of “What Team?” stands out for its bright coloring that makes the group almost appear to be glowing. The emoji stars add a cute, personal, affectionate touch to this wholesome gifset.

Rina + Walk Away Lyrics - This gifset is another example of Emma’s impeccable usage of text to enhance the tone of her work. In this innovative, next-level lyric edit, Emma combined different blending modes between the lines of the text, giving us fluid top lines and solid bottom lines. She perfectly selected the colors of the bottom lyrics to accent the colors of each gif, giving this set a smooth, easy-on-the-eyes aesthetic. The fourth gif stands out especially for its gorgeous pops of yellow accented by pale yellow text, along with its long range of motion.

Rollercoaster - This Jonas Brothers gifset stands out for its subtle coloring scheme. The mostly neutral black, white, and grey tones are brilliantly accented by the soft, but meaningful, pinks and reds that are sprinkled throughout. The sentimental lyrics placed on top of adorable group shots convey the theme of familial love and adventure. The fourth gif in the left column is aesthetically pleasing for its use of neutral coloring, its sharpness, and the streetlights that make the whole image seem to shine.

Troy Bolton in HSM3 - We’ve seen Emma do all kinds of fancy, clever text effects, but this caption-heavy gifset shows that she also excels at the basics. This set stands out for its vivid coloring, funny quotes, and captivating scene selections. Troy Bolton is the ultimate drama king, and this set perfectly captures his best moments from the third film. Emma astutely juxtaposed the two scenes with the highest amount of motion diagonally on opposite sides of the gifset, showing her skill for composition. The second gif in the right column stands out for its fast, wide range of motion and its stunning pink hues, while the third gif in the left column stands out for its perfect depiction of extreme emotion, along with its deep green coloring.

helllooo ! PHEW this took me a hot MINUTE to write out but i’m finally done . i’m sam , your local dark academia & stevie nicks trash , and i bring forth my favorite Musical Theater Son Ari !! i have literally been on a straight up show tunes kick ever since binge watching the politican ( which isn’t even a musical just BEN PLATT ) and thus , enough about me , i present to you the real star of the show ... !!

INTRODUCING ...

did you hear how ARIEL ROSEN is applying to columbia university as a MUSICAL THEATER major ?! the TWENTY-TWO year old is living in the CARLTON ARMS. i heard that they got in because they are AMBITIOUS and FERVENT, but honestly i think HE can be INSECURE and COMPLIANT. they’re a real THESPIAN. oh well, only time will tell if the SENIOR will make it til the end.

full name : ariel nathaniel rosen ( it’s pronounced AHHH REE ELLE not AIR ree elle GET IT RIGHT or don’t talk to him )

nickname : ari , like ah - ree , and exclusively goes as such

birthday : september 30, 1997

zodiac : libra sun , aquarius moon , leo rising

nationality : american

ethnicity : jewish

religion : jewish

sexual & romantic orientation : bisexual , biromantic

hometown : los angeles , california

languages spoken : english

aesthetics : bright stage lights, secret playlists, the swish of a soccer ball catching net, black american express cards, muddy soccer cleats, old money

dream roles : guy ( once ) & emcee ( cabaret )

character parallels : troy bolton ( high school musical ) , nate archibald ( gossip girl ) , austin ames ( a cinderella story ) , neil perry ( dead poets society ) , andrew ( the breakfast club ) , pink ( dazed and confused )

background info !

born and raised in sunny los angeles , beverly hills to be exact

both his parents are in the entertainment business , his father is the ceo of a production company ( think warner brothers ) and his mom is a hot shot producer at the same company

he’s the youngest of three , with two older sisters , and greatness was always expected of the rosens . his eldest sister , lila , has just passed the california bar exam on her first try and is now working in entertainment law in los angeles . the middle child , ilana , is in grad school and studying to become a pediatric surgeon . and then there’s ariel .

ari was a good kid . in high school he was captain of the soccer team and was really really talented at the sport , he tutored underprivileged kids on tuesdays , had a high school sweetheart that his parents loved . he was beloved by the student body , he’d walk into a party and every guy would give him a high five , every girl would say hello . only he was hiding this huge secret that he felt like he couldn’t tell anybody .

he was a THEATER NERD . while out loud he would blast brockhampton & kendrick , if you took a look at his playlists you’d find endless amounts of show tunes . not that he’d ever tell anyone ! his parents may be in the biz , but it was strictly corporate . neither of them spared any time for the arts , at least not where their kids were concerned

he was the golden child , the only son , the baby boy . his mom totally coddled him and his dad had huge expectations for him . they were both thrilled when he received his acceptance letter from columbia , which happened to be the school his sister ilana was attending at the time . he got into the business school , where he would major in business and minor in economics & entertainment management whilst playing as center midfielder on the men’s soccer team

his first year and a half at columbia were swamped with late night studying , internships with major companies thanks to his dad’s hook ups , soccer practice and essentially no time for social life ( although being in a frat like delta psi helped out on that front , as even when he didn’t want to go out , they brought the party home )

but in the middle of his sophomore year he did something entirely brave ! he auditioned for a musical . an amateur production , neither a part of the school nor on broadway , but he landed the role and told virtually nobody , not even his friends .

at the end of his sophomore year , after the production had run its course , he took the leap , auditioning for columbia’s theater program . it was a huge shot in the dark , seeing as he’d already finished two years of undergrad as a business major , but shockingly ... he got in .

okay , not that shockingly . even without formal training , anybody could see the potential in ari when he gets on stage . the voice he’s got in him is undeniable , and acting just comes naturally . despite his somewhat timid personality , he takes the stage by storm every time . also , his last name carries some weight at the university , but that’s besides the point .

it’s been two years now since he switched majors and he’s been so much happier , though he has yet to tell his parents . he’s not sure when he’ll get around to that but it’ll certainly be later rather than sooner

personality !

ari is the nice guy . very much the “ lovable jock ” trope , he’s pretty soft . you could step all over him and he’d probably apologize to you tbh

that being said he’s got a winner’s drive , he’s an athlete after all , and can be incredibly determined when he wants to be

v smart , probably should have been in omega chi delta , but his jock reputation preceded him and plus , he likes drinking too much

he’s really not very flirty because he can be kind of shy ?? but get a few shots in him and he’ll talk you up ok

i feel like i’m missing some stuff but anyway ?? HERE is his pinterest board !

wanted connections !

best friend — probably a frat brother , PLEASE give me a bromance

platonic soulmate — the best friend , the gal , the one that everyone asks “ are you guys a couple ? ” to which they both disgustedly respond “ NO ! ” wren

freshman fling — i say fling but that was just for alliteration , it was probably a whole ass relationship . you see , ari came to columbia still dating his high school sweetheart , they were gonna do long distance , but this was the person that made him realize that there was so much more to the world he had to see and experience before committing to a girl he met at thirteen . they could’ve ended amicably or not !

teammates — WHAT TEAM ? LIONS ! WHAT TEAM ? LIONS ! LIONS ! GETCHA HEAD IN THE GAME !!! ok basically just soccer bois like give em to me if you’ve got ‘em . ari is a starting center mid and ?? i’m thinking team captain since he’s a senior now but

billionaire boys club — ok not just boys but give me all the rich kid plots like going out shopping for the day on the upper east side , dropping a thousand on a table at an exclusive club , jetting off to europe for the weekend . we have to stan

ex girlfriend — welp i have an hc that ari dated a girl for at least half of sophomore and all of junior year because he’s definitely a fully committal , all in kind of guy ( so it would’ve been a recent break up ) , but they broke up and we can figure out the details of why let’s get this angst nellie

secret hook up — it’s 2019 ari !!!! GAY IS OK . anyways this kiddo has completely come to terms with his sexuality he just doesn’t feel like his parents ever will . they kind of have his whole life planned out and a huge chunk of that is marrying a #NiceJewishGirl soooo ! this can be secret in the sense that ari doesn’t plan on telling his parents but they aren’t secretive about it at school , or it can be entirely secret idc ! soleil

theater friends — as a drama kid ... the freaking bond between your cast mates and the crew ?!?! phew ... gimme these bonds !!! also would love a plot where they were cast as romantic interests and had to spend the semester making out during rehearsals

business & econ major pals — ari spent his first two years at columbia in the business school , so i imagine a lot of his earliest friends were met through that ! mayhaps one of them was the earliest person he confided in about not actually wanting to do business

grad school friends — idk if any muses are grad school students but ! ari’s older sister ilana ( i might end up erasing her name and major and make her a wanted connection IDK I’LL SEE HOW I FEEL ) is 2 years older and went to columbia for undergrad , so i imagine when he was a freshman she introduced him to a lot of her friends ! so if any grad school muses also went to undergrad at columbia mayhaps they knew ari’s sister and yada yada ok this one was a loose connection but an attempt was made

#columbia.intro #wipes forehead #I spent Way Too Much time on that !#gimme a like and i'll slide into your dms tho :~)

Churn the butter

-harder taehyung, HARDER! you screamed and screamed, sweating like crazy while tae tae groaned, putting in more force. -this is all i got y/n - he said and gave up on churning the butter. - i wasn’t born for the country lifeu. Tae dropped his butter spoon and sat down crying. Suddenly Troy Bolton appeared on the horizon, singing a motivational song for taehyung. -jagi! Look! It’s that singing cat guy omo!~~ Troy’s singing gave tae courage again and he started to churn your fucking butter. -thats more like it oppar, keep going and dont stop. Taehyung gave you a suggesting look, then started stripping and pouring the butter all over his body. -mwo..mwoya? YAH WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING PABO? But tae got closer and closer, the butter shining in the midday sun. You felt two little jungkooks sitting on your shoulder, one telling you to go with it and one telling you to run. In your head you heard jimin’s endless ‘excuse meee’. You started to get dizzy and suddenly all you could see was space. You look to your left to see hoseok on his bed, floating among the stars, rapping his new song. This all became too much for you and you started crying. Suddenly everything went red and you heard namjoon saying 'just live your life man’ with a huge echo. You fainted and woke up to see taehyung struggling to churn butter….

How about a High School Miraculous?

Taylor McKessie is the most overworked person in Albuquerque. In addition to maintaining an A+ grade average and trying to get into a top-tier medical school, she has to deal with the shenanigans of her best friend…

Gabriella Montez, who is trying to balance her classes, getting into college, and the lead of the school musical. Also, she has to suit up as the superheroine Ladybug to fight the akumatized citizens that occasionally invade Albuquerque, and that's not even touching on the fact that she's got feelings for her partner, Chat Noir, and her boyfriend…

Troy Bolton, captain of the basketball team and school heartthrob. Caught between his love of sports and his love of acting, Troy also has to keep his identity as the superhero Chat Noir secret, and wonder how to explain to Gabriella that he's starting to fall for Ladybug. There's also the issue of…

Sharpay Evans, Ice (and drama) Queen of East High, struggling with being dethroned by her frenemy Gabriella and lashing out by trying to steal both Gabriella’s roles in the school plays and her boyfriend. She also runs the Ladyblog, dedicated to Albuquerque's own superheroes, and spends whatever time she isn’t working on her vocal training trying to figure out Ladybug and Chat Noir’s real identities, and also bossing around …

Ryan Evans, her brother and sidekick, who’s spent most of his life in Sharpay’s shadow and is now trying to figure out how to tell her he’s been accepted to Julliard. And just like everyone else, he’s got a secret, hiding his relationship with …

Chad Danforth, Troy’s best friend since they were little. He’s getting more concerned about Troy, since he’s always running out right after basketball practice, and he knows it’s not just play rehearsal that’s taking up all of his time. He’s not the only one noticing - there’s also …

Coach Jack Bolton, Troy’s dad and coach of the basketball team. Although it’s a full-time job coaching the team and teaching gym at East High, Jack still finds time to terrorize Albuquerque with his akumas as the masked supervillain Hawkmoth, on an endless quest to steal Ladybug and Chat Noir’s Miraculouses.

#high school musical #miraculous ladybug #ladybug #hsm #crossover #miraculous #this is the dumbest idea i've ever had #it's even worse than the hp crossover #i'm so mad that it works so well
