how well the red queen ships would fare in a long distance relationship:
marecal: absolutely terrible. mare gets insecure but doesn’t know how to communicate her fears of losing him and cal can never pick up on why she’s pissed off at him all the time. kilorn has to block them both for his mental happiness because mare keeps sending him edgy text messages and cal keeps ringing him up stressed out of his mind. when one flies down to see the other they are inseparable but arguing all the time and the goodbyes are always painfully drawn out and they’re both crying for the next three hours over it.
evane: evangeline will get a little jealous when she hears about a new friend of elane’s and elane will get FOMO when she hear about thing evangeline is doing without her but they communicate effectively and would spend a lot of dough visiting each other as much as they can even if its mot so reasonable. i think this is the couple that will be the least likely to ever do long distance because they literally cant be separated it would have to take a miracle.
sharley: they are pretty okay. they miss each other heaps and when they facetime it hits how far the other is and diana will stay up late at night sweating about not being around shade for too long but other than that they don’t get very jealous of people around them and are secure in their love.
kilorn x cameron: stable as hell. kilorn gets occasionally sad but both are so busy with their lives they can go two weeks without a text and then remember ‘oh shit havent called my gf/bf’ in a while and when they do its no big deal. kilorn texts cameron an ‘i miss you’ text and gets his response 8 hours later and its chill. and then they meet up and hang like they saw each other last tuesday. they dont want to be apart but they know its not gonna last forever.
thomaven: maven is absolutely terrible at it. thomas will go away and 72 hours later maven will show up at his front door with no warning.
gisa x shopgirl: probably the most stable. there could be sabotage ploy after sabotage ploy on this ship and they would still make it out the other end without breaking a sweat.
Mare: Playing Competitive Volleyball with Evangeline🏐🔪
Cal: Set up the tent, bbq station and tried to join Mare cause she looks really nice in her swimwear. (Got bullied out of the court by Evangeline)😔
Kilorn: Swimming with the fishes, only resurfacing when his hungry. Comforted Cal when Evangeline bullied him out of the volleyball court. 🐠
Farley: Played volleyball with Mare and Evangeline, never came back when the food was ready.🥙
Shade: Wanted to play volleyball, but realized no one was cooking the food. Had a great time with Farley and he kept sneaking the best portion onto her plate.👨🍳
Evangeline: Playing Competitive Volleyball with Mare🏐⚡️
Elane: Watching her stunning girlfriend play volleyball, but ended up eating with Farley cause the food tasted real good.🤼♀️🥙🥘
Maven: Was only invited because of Cal. Watched Mare play volleyball a bit too closely then Evangeline spiked the ball to his face. Spent the remaining time trying to drown Kilorn when Cal was not looking.🌊
characters in their 30's and older exploring their sexuality and discovering themselves beyond their teens and twenties is so important and beautiful and worth telling
Setup: Farley, Cal, Maven, and Evangeline work in a coffee shop. Chaos ensues.
(Also I've never worked at a coffee shop uh ignore any plotholes)
Cal poked his head through the door, grimacing "Houston, we have a problem."
"For the last time Cal, it's the customer's fault if you spell it wrong. Everyone knows this." Evangeline popped a bubble and kept chewing. "Dig in your heels, and never show weakness. That's how you get tips."
He frowned. "We're allowed gum?"
In the corner, Farley drizzled caramel atop a thick layer of foam, scowling. "The orders, Calore."
"That's the problem." He wrung his hands. "This newest customer, she, ah--" He scratched his head. "I don't know what she's saying."
Maven massaged his forehead. "Jesus Christ, Cal, are you that bad at the names here?"
Evangeline swung on the nearest table. "Just scrawl something illegible, no one will notice."
Cal turned to his brother, throwing his hands in the air. "Does anyone here actually want this job?"
Farley muttered something under her breath, and Evangeline jutted her chin. "What was that, Canada?'"
She shrugged. "Nothing. Just that maybe you should serve them yourself if you know how to do it so well."
Her eyes narrowed. "What am I, a servant?"
Maven studied his nails. "A barista. But yes."
"Fine." The words hissed between her teeth. "You'll regret this, all of you."
Cal grimaced. "Already am."
At his side, Maven perked. "Be sure to smile!"
"Fuck off." Evangeline tied on her apron with grit teeth. She'd gotten through this job a full semester without doing it properly: she wasn't about to start now.
truly nothing about house md prepares you for wilson. he's fucking insane. he's been divorced three times. he's the only person who can scheme just as well as house. he gives a patient his own liver bc he felt bad for him - a patient who didn't even know wilson's name. btw. he noticed a patient had depression bc he never mentioned his grandkids. he starred in a porno. he dosed house with antidepressants for several weeks. he allowed his boybestie and his gf to share custody of him and didn't even try to stop it. house told him to buy a piece of furniture that represented who he was, and he bought a $4000+ organ for house. he was gonna torpedo his career to talk abt euthanasia bc one of his patients suffered longer than he had to. he let house move into his 1 bed apartment bc his therapist thought it'd be a good idea. this man would do anything for anybody if they let him. he'd fucking quit his job to save a snail off the sidewalk. bro is not normal in the slightest
