Things I can’t stop thinking about from Jamie and Zoe’s Tales of the TARDIS episode
- The very concept of them remembering and seeing each other again in general.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- How pointed it is in calling their mindwipe unforgivable and insisting that they’ll definitely never forget again. I get the feeling RTD or someone else involved in the writing of it has been carrying a grudge against their ending for decades and used this as therapy lol. Relatable.
- The recorder and the reverence with which they both treat it. 🥺
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- “I missed him every day of my life. Didn’t even realize it.” 😭
- “I’d still be with him now if I could, trying to keep up with him.” This line hits so hard both because Jamie truly never would have left and because Frazer has said this same thing about himself and Pat, that they’d still be doing it if he were alive and if they hadn’t both been convinced that it was time to leave. My heart.
- This is true of these episodes generally but I love so much that they both had happy and fulfilling lives. Jamie got to have a wonderful big family and Zoe was still able to keep her growth from her travels and escape just being “all brain and no heart”.
- ZOE NAMED HER SON JAMES. NOBODY LOOK AT ME.
- ^ Jamie’s reaction to the above. The way his face and voice go so soft, I can’t deal with it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- The fact that they were still influenced by their experiences even if they couldn’t remember them. Especially meaningful for Zoe because she needed those experiences so badly, so it’s a relief to see that she was able to use them and carve out a happy life for herself because of them even if she couldn’t remember. It brings such a happy bit of closure to the Doctor’s concerned question, “She’ll be alright, won’t she?”
- “I want to forget about the Cybermen!” with Jamie’s shifty eyes of disdain, lol. I bet he does considering he had to see them more times than any other companion!
- Lovely to hear names like the Krotons and the Quarks, along with a classic Jamie-ism in “wee little beasties”.
- I like the specific reference to Jamie’s face mishap lol. It was probably just to bring up a funny part of the story they just reviewed but it also serves as a nice shoutout to Hamish Wilson who passed a few years ago.
- “Well, who’d’a thought? President and a Highlander sharing stories.” That highlights something I love about the 60s era of the show, how you get people from so many times and places who never would have known each other but come to mean the world to each other. Jamie and Zoe couldn’t be farther from one another in time or background and they never should have met but here they are, both sharing so much love for the other and having had a bond so strong that Zoe subconsciously named her son for him.
- Jamie’s, “I could get used to this,” and happy wiggle in the chair, lol. That felt very Jamie and reminds me of his amusing character arc wherein he becomes more and more attached to future conveniences or technologies or comforts. I bet you could easily get used to it, Jamie!
- Jamie suddenly destroying the vibe by wondering if they could be in Heaven, rofl.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Hearing them talk about Victoria made me so emotional, partly for the characters and partly because Debbie’s passing is still in fairly recent memory and it very much felt just as much like a tribute to her as for the character. I lost it over Jamie’s emotional face and hoping that she had a nice life. It felt so painfully real, an old man looking back on a girl he once knew and loved in his youth and hoping she lived well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- These two, generally. I love them so much and this was so healing.

Babylon 5: Born to the purple (finally having time to do this on the day)
*The whole 'G'kar is a horndog' thing gets kind of ignored after Season 1, which does make sense (it sort of comes back in Season 5, for one scene), but it was a thing earlier on, including in this line where G'kar agrees with 'all things in live females are the greatest'
*K'odath's disbelief that G'kar would be there raises questions about Narn society and G'kar's repuation back home *God, this episode hits harder in Hindsight *I love how Arcy B5 got later on, but I also like the opening to Season 1, because it lent itself to the more episodic feel of Season 1
*Oh yeah, this is the episode with Ivanova using Gold Channel
*Vir's use of the weird Gameboy like thing is hilarious. We never see that again, probably because he learns to do it back in his quarters. *B5 throws words like 'Sector' and 'Quadrant' around without much of a real sense of place and size. No clarity as to where these places are. *This episode tells us so much about Centauri society, and really drives home where Londo sits at this point. *MOON FACED ASSASSIN OF JOY *I don't think I've ever noticed the narn playing Vir's game before when I've watched this episode. *G'kar being so thrown by Londo's Mood *THIS ASSHOLE. And plot thickens. *God, it's so heartwarming though, how much he cares about her. This is not just some 'I want a pretty woman' thing. He really does love her *Londo's password is so very him at this point in his life. *I just wish Talia had been taken to dinner by Ivanova here. *cries in shipper* *Ivanova being protective of her console feels so in-character you forget... *"Figment of your demented imagination" *I do feel like Mollari's cipher should have requried a specific tone too, but I guess a voiceprint is pretty secure *Don't Give Away The Homeworld :rofl: *"get your feet moist" I love it when Londo and Vir get earth sayings wrong *Just a casual use of a tazer in public *I get that slavery is legal in Centauri space, but how is it legal on B5?
*damn that is a fancy bug. *Trakkis, when a man says "get out" in that tone, you GET OUT
*Vir walks in with such a swagger *Negotiating via subordinates is hardly unheard of G'kar. *"Don't give away the homeworld" *You know, I get it's conservation of Characters, but these Ambassadors really do need bigger diplomatic staff. And more competent ones. Ones you can actually trust to do the job *Then I hurt Him *"My good and dear friend" ah, Londo of this season. Such a decent guy, in a lot of ways. :rofl: *Londo's failure to talk the guy around is hilarious. But sinclair's deceptions *And here it is. The other key backstory element for Ivanova **cries* fuck. *Sinclair's strategem is so risky, I'm surprised there were no downsides. *"Coming from you Ambassador, that's a real compliment" *And the thing is, Talia has a point. The Psicorps rules about these things are there for a good reason. But this is one of those things where you'd think warrants could exist. But apparently there just is no room for that? *Not that they could get a warrant in this context but *I do love the 'don't think of an elephant' trick she pulls on him *G'kar saved Londo's career, and he's gotta hide that fact so much. :rofl: *I do wonder what exactly is in those Purple Files *I love that Garibaldi knows not to press her about it. Just "it won't happen again" *God, Londo... the ending.

“These are my confessions!”
Tumblr media
Ok so remember I said I was watching dr pimple popper and it gave me an intrusive thought? So this one episode, this woman had a mass hanging from her back, probably the size of her palm as she is a small woman.
So anyway, it wasn’t tight or anything, it hung. They showed her married life and her complaining about the pain it gave her and really dramatizing how just reaching up into a cabinet to get something not even that far from her hurt her back
Tumblr media
Here come my dumb ass wondering…
When her husband hit her from the back, is it painful? Do it just jiggle and bounce like a third boob, how that work? 🙃
Tumblr media
Rofl!!! 😆 🤣 😆 🤣
Ahhhh...Confession Corner Sunday.... you gotta love it rofl 🤣 😂

🎀💝💥 :3
🎀give yourself a compliment about your own writing
.../mind goes utterly blank UHHHH I can write a good action scene! And I'm good at the small details-- things like atmospheric change and reactions (if person A does this what changes about the environment) kind of thing. I like to think I'm also reasonably good at setting up intelligent characters, but given it was just recently I noticed a giant plot hole upcoming in NRFTW about... two pages from where I was, I don't always succeed lmao. (I fixed the plot hole, but I'm annoyed I completely failed to realise it was there until I was so close to it--) Probably the biggest compliment I can give myself is that I'm comfortable with my writing. I go back and read it and I'm like "yeah, this is good." A lot of writers struggle with that insecurity, and there are a hell of a lot of writers better than I am (I am in awe of all of you) but that does not mean I am bad. I'm satisfied, and I'll only get better with time. It's a win win.
💝what is a fic that got a different response than you were expecting?
This is much harder to answer. Generally speaking, the reaction I get to my fics is exactly what I'm expecting, which I guess means I'm aiming right. I do tend to sometimes over/underestimate how much a chapter within a story will resonate with readers-- like I'll write a chapter that is mostly exposition based and think people will find it annoying, and then it turns out it's their favourite chapter. Or I'll write scenes that I personally liked that barely get acknowledged. It all comes down to personal taste, and if I'm generally getting the right beats hitting with the audience, it's all good. \o/
💥find your least kudos'd fic - say something wonderful about it.
HMM I bet I know which one this is-- /goes to see Not including the AMV archive as that's not fic. ROFL okay, it's Breaking the Curse, which is literally an indulgent piece of crack I wrote for my friend @xzigzagx123 when she was having a bad day. Largely: when I started writing fanfic, I had a run of bad luck in which I'd inflict a wound on a fictional character and then... suffer it myself within the week. Which was frankly hilarious but rude (and entirely coincidental and thankfully didn't continue as a trend given... current fics... though I did end up on a gurney in ER last week /cough) and we used to joke that clearly all I needed to do was write a fanfic in which all characters involved had an amazing time on a beautiful island vacation somewhere. Hence this fic. ZZ was having a rotten day so I typed it up one afternoon and presented it to her, and she laughed her fucking head off so JOB WELL DONE. So I won't ever regret writing it, and I giggle enough re-reading it that it made the jump from ff.net for posterity. I do not expect it to get a lot of traction, and that is Perfectly Okay, given what it is. ♥ It's a present for my awesome friend, huhuhu.
Thank you for the questions!
Fic ask meme here.

How about 1, 10, and 14 for… well, I guess all of Caleb. Caleb and his extended universe hahaha (so that includes the wwii stuff if you like!) 🥰
From this list
Oh my, you really are offering a challenge here, aren't you?! LOL
Let me see...
1: What inspired you to write the fic this way?
Oh, gosh, this is an impossible question to answer because I have no idea! LOL Each story (or prompt) sort of evolves into its own thing based on how the characters are cooperating (or not) when I am writing it. Where Caleb is concerned, a lot of what inspires various parts of his story - plot, narrative, etc. - is his being from Ireland. Funny story, Caleb as a character, is actually from a completely different universe than Mass Effect, but it's been Mass Effect that has really helped me flesh him out and define him as a character. His origin is from my Werewolf: The Apocalypse game where I play his mother, Brigit, who is also Irish as my main character. So, much of his initial inspiration comes from that and it sort of bleeds into the rest of it, I guess. The individual fics may have other things inspiring them, but ultimately it comes down to Caleb, I guess.
10: Why did you choose this pairing for this particular story?
I know I've mentioned before that I majored in history in college. I am absolutely fascinated by it, and there are so many areas I love to learn about and study. One of my two favorites is WWII because my grandfathers both served during the war. I'd been trying to create a WWII/ME crossover fic for years when this idea hit me.
Why did I choose Caleb and Kaidan? Because the first time around I tried using a femShep/Kaidan pairing and it just wasn't working right. I'm not sure why (this was years ago), but it didn't feel like it was meshing right. But Caleb has been different and if I was going to use Caleb here, I was going to put Kaidan with him. Whenever I write him, if at all possible, he is with Kaidan because it works best for them. They just blend together so well as a couple.
Now, that isn't to say I won't put him with anyone else. Caleb is bisexual, after all, and I have no problem pairing him with anyone else as needed in stories. Currently, he has one world ( @happychica's Town of Norman series) where Kaidan is already spoken for. I had a number of people I could have put him with there, but when it came right down to it, I decided on Ashley. (I've often wondered what might have happened had both Kaidan AND Ashley survived Virmire, because Caleb did have some interest in her at the time. But in his canon, she dies there and her sister Abby becomes a major player in his life.) And the Norman 'verse (as well as in another as yet unpublished set of stories), he and Ashley work really well together.
So, I guess all of this is to say that it depends on the universe, but so far, he's almost always with Kaidan because that is truly where he belongs. And when he can't be, Ashley is a good match for him.
14: Is there anything you wanted readers to learn from reading this fic?
You know, I honestly cannot answer this. Why? Because when I write a fic, I'm writing it for me to read. That's the audience, right there. I'm AMAZED that others like them as much as they do - I'm delighted, don't get me wrong! - but the main reader I'm writing for is me. I'm that person who gets to the end of a really good book and screams because I want to know what happens next. So, in order to get that, I write the story. If anyone else enjoys it half as much as I do, then even better!
Thanks so much for the asks! I hope my responses make sense...I'm about to head to bed because I'm falling asleep at my computer! ROFL

I!!!! Am sorry, this isn't super specific. But in a *lot* of your fics you have this absolutely beautiful, what I call 'oh' moment, and it's almost always when the pov character has had a like... sometimes realization and other times consideration, about the pain the character the pov one is with has gone through.
And it always hits like a hard punch to the gut or makes my chest physically ache!
Persona 5
One Piece
TMNT
Natsume Yuujinchou
Even a FF15 one-shot I reread
You're done it in all these fandoms and so many fics I couldn't possibly list them all here. I'm sorry it wasn't more specific, but it's something I love to reread from all of your works all the time. You don't even always explain the pain! More often then not you don't, but this feels like a moment where the reader and the pov character are super insync because you both suddenly *know*.
Haha ^^; I hope this makes sense and the vagueness isn't too horrid to try to work out.
Also, any and all of the scenes that you write where the character is just "Oh my god, I love this person so much." Please see above list for where you're done that rofl!
I hope you have a wonderful day/night! (And sorry if my answer was a miss 😭 I just love the chance to tell you how much I love your writing)
yet another fanfic ask meme
how DARE you apologize for sending the message that improved my entire week ?????????? it means so much that you've stuck with me for so long 😭😭 thank you

Episode 2 - Recap
EP2: FL begins wondering if spending time with the ML's ghost can lead to him harming her. But she contemplates for like a minute and then brush off the idea.
Me: that's my girl! being dumb is your thing. don't give up now...
ANYWAYS. We are back in school and FL is panicking about a supplementary singing test because she can't sing. yada yada yada~ then her math papers are gone so the ML tells her to go to his classroom and get his printouts from his desk. That's where she officially meets ML's best friend (Kamio Fuju ♥) and he spills the beans:
Fuju: did you have sex with my friend? Airhead: I.. didn't. Fuju: seriously? then he died a virgin. but i'm not sure because he was popular in middle school. Airhead: he was popular as I thought. Fuju: yeah but he was popular with ugly and crazy girls.
*dies laughing*
ML: DON'T LISTEN to him! Fuju: he can be a pushover, right? if he was a girl, he'd be easy. ML: HIT HIM!
FL actually punches the air in his direction lol
Fuju: what? FL: I'm objecting. Fuju: say it. are you a gorilla? FL: Sorry. Fuju: it's fine. you're not ugly. though you might be crazy.
After thinking a bit, he explains that if he had to choose between the 2, she is not ugly so she is insane... Still an insult buddy lol
The conversation leads to the FL getting upset because Fuju badmouthed her lovely ghost. That makes her storm out in anger. She doesn't get upset when he calls her crazy but defensive when he targets the ML. sayonara, self.
THEN the FL starts practicing for her singing test and umm yeah. she is tone-deaf. poor girl. A classmate (who helped her earlier by playing the piano, while FL sang) sees the FL playing the piano perfectly and decides to take off and not stay for after school practice. FL feels apologetic for deceiving her classmate and decides to chase after the girl and tell her that the ML's ghost was the one playing the piano.
Me: -_-'
ML tries to convince her that that would make her insane. & to distract her, he enters a street utility pole and asks her to hug him.
Me: yeah, cause that would be something normal to see rofl
NEXT DAY. FL and Fuju reconcile. sort of. Fuju ends up crying because he misses his friend and we find out the boy is just foulmouthed but doesn't mean anything cruel by what he says. Okay....
After school. FL gets all sad and depressed cause she never thought how the ML can't do anything he wants. Then she tells him that her hands and mouth are his. He can instruct her to do what he can't (this sounds so wrong...)
ML GETS TRIGGERED AGAIN & HIS FACE TURNS EVILLLLL "your hands.. and mouth.. and what else?" in a creeeeepy voice
This time, he returns to normal instantly. moment passed people. *curtains closes*
COMMENT: this episode was boring. the pacing and editing is just weak. this show is something to watch when you are sick or feverish cause you can TOLERATE or pass out lol

YOOOOOOO CHAPTER 14 SON!!
Brosef, Broham, Bronini, other words to insinuate friendship that begin with bro
OKAY SO THAT LINE MY DUDE
You know the one Monty said at that time which I will not directly quote because oi! If ur reading this and you haven't read chapter 14 of Peace of Mind you are a fool and need to atone for your sins by promptly going and binge reading that literary equivalent to the modern 8th wonder of the world!
ANY WAY THAT LINE made me lose my actual shizno. Like no joke I squealed in the breakroom at work and got LOOKS👀👀👀
Rofl. Oh my lanta the little latina had me straight cackling. If you know you know🤣🤣
And once again Chica and Roxxmysoxxoff coming in clutch maaaannnn I fucking love them rofl.
You fully and absolutely came through with the Bonnie scene my duderino. Like whole ass. And the news headline references were spot on omg I remember the gator lady🤣🤣🤣
Man I fucking love your writing so damn much lol
always and forever
~🌹
BRONINI IS MY FAVORITE THING OMG what is up Bronini~
I don’t know about 8th wonder of the world but at least the solid 7 and a half wonder, so thank you for that esteemed praise UwU
And I feel like this one just had so many good lines?? I mean I don’t pretend to be amazing at dialogue but I’ve always felt I write it pretty naturally, and that can make heavy hitting stuff hard to put into words so I was really proud of That Line for sure. And pretty much anything that came out of Bonnie’s mouth tbh, I just can’t get over how much fun he is!!!!
But of course we gotta have some more girl time, and the boys always feel left out and probably congregate in Freddy’s room for boy time out of spite or something lmao.
THANK YOU MY DEAR I LOVE EVERY ASK AND DM YOU SEND MY WAY 💕💕💕💕💕💕

V posted selca with Bam with caption he took care of Bam when he was young... What can you say about it... The delulus are so delulu now because of it...
Uhmmm what can I say about what????
Tumblr media
That he likes doggu???? He is cute??? 👀
Tumblr media
He almost stole this cute ass white Yeontan off the set of PTD just because... seems he a fan of interracial dating cos why he tryna sneak a lightskin partner for his Yeontan🤣
And look at the photo...
Tumblr media
Doesn't it look... funny to you? Cos I'm rofl. Lol. He's a joker guy Istg🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Don't know man. I like the photo. There's something about it I can't quite place a finger on but I like it.
Was he trying to cover the dogs 🍆???? Lol
Remember when he posted a picture with JK at the end of the year and I said something felt off cos JK didn't look like he wanted to be there and it turns out they had just taken the picture for Army?
I'm not saying TaeBam are doing fanservice that would be ridiculous I'm not a tuktukkersss🤣😭💀
It's just... there's something funny about it.
it doesn't give off warm vibes to me and even if it does I don't think that was the intention behind the photo.
I can actually see him going "Bam is mine" in that moment in the photo or "let's cover up the bam dick before the hoes start zooming and shit" rather than 'aww puppy puppy so cute' Lol
There's something performative and exaggerated about that moment and I don't know if it's the fault of the photographer or the subject or both.
It's cute and heart fluttering but there is no jenesequa to it for both of them if you know what I mean. It's not a moment someone chanced upon and thought oh I want to capture this moment because it's warm and vulnerable. It doesn't feel like a candid shot.
Tae is well aware he's been photographed and he seem like he's posing for the camera..
It feels like a funny moment captured on cam more so than a bonding style vibe captured.
It's almost as if he's been caught stealing a dog and he doesn't wanna give it back 🤣🤣
Tumblr media
It screams of a "Alright it's time to go" "Nope I won't give him back" "he's my precious" type of situation and I think it's cute and hilarious.
Tumblr media
I mean I could be wrong but contrasted to this moment right here, You literally can feel the mood and vibe and the love and the vulnerability all in one as it hits different
Tumblr media
Same energy as this.
But with this current photo it reminds me of these types of moments
Tumblr media
Or this
Tumblr media
The vibe is just different. A picture says a thousand words and sometimes it captures the story behind the moment.
I wonder who took the photo though. Was it Jimin? JK? Staff? I ask not for shipping purposes but because each artist has their own photography style. Some just point and shoot some wanna capture a mood some want to tell a story with a picture which is usually Tae's style of photography.
Jungkook loves his candids and he knows when a subject is being overly posed and unnatural. He's called Jimin out for this a few times talking about he's cute but sometimes it's just an act🤣💀
Bam is still pretty young and a baby pup and clearly some of the members met him before he was sent off to the training center.
Don't own a dog and I don't know much about raising one but I hear a good age to send them off to such training facilities is around 7-8 weeks old.
Don't know at what exact age Kook adopted Bam but I refuse to believe he drove him off to the center straight from the kennel and since Tae is his close friend too it's entirely possible he'd met Bam even if it was for a brief moment that one time.
Oh wait that leather and floors look familiar...
Tumblr media
Can't believe yall have me analyzing furniture I swear to god😐
Nvm it's not the same one. It's nice tho.
I think Tae likes to place his label on things and jokingly claim them. I find that endearing about him.
Besides, you never know what he's read, heard or is responding to out here.
Someone asked him for a selca on the 16th and he said it was already on his mind and he posted this bam photo. It's possible he chanced on his photo with Bam in his gallery while he was posting his photo with Yeontan.
He's had that photo all this while and didn't post it to debut Bam. Clearly he did that out of respect for Jungkook who wanted to control when and how he debuted Bam to fans. That says a lot about his growth as a person and that's what i take away from this.
Kook equally had a photo of what appeared to be Bam when he was a few weeks old on his phone much earlier in one of his VLives. So clearly Bam was around for a while before he was sent to the training center.
Tumblr media
Or maybe that's not bam... Ion know. All dogs look the same to me anyway.
Each member is different and they all have their own ideosyncracies. Let's respect that. Personally, I see only a slight difference between Jimin and Tae's personalities sometimes and so I get triggered when people overly criticize either of them.
I deleted Weverse a while back and haven't downloaded it yet so I don't follow the tags but sometimes they are reacting to something on there you know?
Did someone make a comment bout Bam and how much bigger he's grown than Yeontan? Bts say these things a lot as soon as people comment on how big a member or Jk has become. You'll hear a chorus of I raised him. Pfft he's still a baby though.
Jimin does this with JK a lot. Did he not recently say JK was still a child when the members were praising him for how much he's grown? Didn't he do the same thing when the members were talking about how big Bam was and he said yea but he's still a baby in my hands?
Doesn't this TaeBam moment give off the same vibe?
Since Tae posted Yeontan recently but deleted it, it's possible bangtan dogs were a hot topic on Weverse. We'll never know.
I personally don't make anything of statements like these especially coming from certain members because I get their sense of humor and I don't construe their words in the same way most people do. I guess my mind really works differently after all.
It really isn't a big deal. People need to stop and smell the roses and grow a sense of humor. They should stop taking everything so seriously it's exhausting.
Tuktukkers are fueled by less. They are at liberty to interpret this however they want it is none of my joker business because it doesn't invalidate my ship.
They like to analyze moments out of contexts in order to make sense of their ship. I like to take context into consideration in order to make sense of a moment. C'est la vie.
Tae loves Bam. Let's leave it at that.
And for fucks sakes IT'S JUST A DOG.

It’s not about a conspiracy.
So Supernatural ended and, in usual Supernatural fashion, it went down in the craziest, most meta way possible. Two episodes before the finale, they canonized Destiel through Cas’ love confession to Dean then, in one last queerbait, didn’t give Dean a chance to respond then completely left Cas out of the rest of the narrative. Of course it couldn’t end there so a dub error aired in Latin and South America where Dean reciprocates. 
Fans, of course, lose their shit and conspiracies fly that this was the CW quashing the Destiel storyline. 
Was it?
I seriously doubt it. Not that the CW isn’t very problematic with killing gays and the movement to bring this to light is a good one. However, the script that we have seen says Dean doesn’t reciprocate. Misha said it wasn’t in the script. And the ending that we got confirms that they never intended this to be anything more than Castiel’s ending (hell, the band Kansas may have planned to get more air time ROFL). 
It’s much more likely that the whole thing is shitty, thoughtless writing. Let’s be honest, SPN fumbled their way into greatness way more often then they planned it. Let’s face it, Kripke never intended this show to go beyond 2 dudes in a cool muscle car killing things. He never meant to address the deeper issues of fate, God, angels, and free will - he has said as much. He was extremely lucky to have gotten some very talented writers like Ben Edlund who were able to make this shallow idea into a deeper, more complex story. And if it weren’t for the incredible talent of the actors who brought life and meaning and nuance to some pretty bad scripts, this should would never have survived this long. Jensen Ackles’ facial expressions can give us so much more than the words that were on the script. Not to mention a passionate and engaged fandom that could take a throw away line and latch onto it (likely to the surprise of even the writers). 
Endings are hard and writers who have to write endings often try to go for shock value and edginess over good story completion. This is why the best show endings are usually the ones that were planned as one story arc from day 1 (see Black Sails, The Good Place, Crazy Ex Girlfriend, Schitts Creek, Breaking Bad). These endings were designed as the culmination of the story narrative that was built towards it. They don’t need to end with happy endings and we may lose great characters, but the narrative and overall arcs stay true and are completed. That’s why they are so satisfying. Supernatural, on the other hand, was never supposed to go 15 years and no one had any idea how to end it. Each year they had to keep going they had to scramble to come up with and idea and Chuck being the ultimate big bad was a stroke of genius that was stumbled into and definitely not planned since the beginning. 
When J2 decided it was time to move on, the writers had to figure out an ending. We know from cast meet and greets that as recently as weeks before the were supposed to shoot the finale it was still being changed and was pretty shaky.  On top of that, just as they were supposed to shoot their finales, Covid19 hit and whatever it was they planned had to be re-written because of restrictions and logistics and they couldn’t just wait till Covid was over because their cast and crew had new jobs lined up they needed to move on to. So, they scrambled and cobbled something together and, like GoT, HIMYM, and Dexter, tried to go for shock and edgy rather than looking back at the themes of their narrative to tie it all together. It ended up coming across as lazy and mediocre at best, regressive and queerphobic at worst. But I don’t think they ever planned to make this anything but a nostalgic homage to the pilot. Again, I’m sure they thought they were being clever, but it backfired. 
It was so empty and disjointed from the rest of the narrative that much of the audience watched thinking that can’t possibly be what was planned! The story must have gotten gutted by the CW or something, right? Tell me they didn’t just completely ignore the boys’ character growth and the queer storyline that had been a major thread for a dozen years! Guys, that’s exactly what they did because, in their minds, having the finale be nothing but a call back to the pilot was some crackerjack writing. They were actually proud that they would get to make everyone cry, make only 30% of fans satisfied, and be so shocking they upstaged Game of Thrones for an ending (all Dabb quotes that I don’t feel like finding and citing but you can easily). Jared even talked about all the things they put in there from the clothes to John’s journal to make it a big homage to the pilot. Sadly, that approach just made it hollow because it made the audience wonder what the other 15 years were for. But sometimes writers shoot for something and miss... by a long shot.
So I know the conspiracies' can be fun. I have had a blast the last few days laughing at the memes and the powerpoints. But please, take them with a grain of salt and don’t go down a dangerous rabbit hole. The most likely answer is right in front of our faces: shitty writing. Stay sane. Stay an SPN family. 
And by all means, keep fighting for better queer representation. Boycott the CW (I know I never plan to watch anything there again) and unfollow their social media. Stop spending money on official merchandise and support artists. Use the hashtags to bring attention to the treatment of LGBT characters in media. Make your voices heard loud that we deserve better. But if the focus is on some Spanish dub conspiracy, it will be brushed off as crazy fangirl nonsense. Focus on the actual intentional behavior that we know they did; the queerbait of Cas in 18 to gain audience interest for a finale that had no intention of paying off. Focus on the killing of all of the LGBT characters in media. And find stories of good representation and solid consistent story arcs to support (the ones I named above are a few excellent examples). 
I love you, my passionate, thoughtful SPN family. Just try to stay sane and level headed through your ire.

INVINCIBLE: S1-EP1
(DISCLAIMER: MY OPINION IS MY OWN AND CAN BE DEEMED INVALID TO THOSE WHO DON’T CARE FOR IT.)
So I was on my Prime Video account, and I saw that there was a new animated superhero. As I watched the teaser I thought, “Man, I gotta do better at seeing new shows.” So I watched it and JESUS CHXST SOOOO MUCH HAPPENED IN THE FIRST EPISODE!!! 
                                          IT’S ABOUT TIME
Tumblr media
The way this show started really threw me for a loop because it fully invested me in this conversation about STEVE’s step son MATT...
“I’m supposed to learn to tuck and roll away from a guy who can shoot laser out of his eyes, or control minds, or kick a goddamn school bus to the moon?” - 
He’s got a point...
MATT had it rough y’all...
Don’t start cryin’ STEVE... not at work
The art style kinda reminds me of the BOONDOCKS
Tumblr media
STEVE don’t start stumblin’ on your words now..
WAR WOMAN slapped him with that weapon like nothin’
RED RUSH + Zoomin’ to Fast = Vomit
He didn’t have to throw that civilian by the head like that ROFL
I won’t lie... as soon as I saw this man I immediately thought... “Black Batman”... I am ashamed
They are really fuckin’ up the WHITE HOUSE... I wonder how the taxpayers feel about this??
We appreciate the diversity in in any show!
Ahh high school drama... gotta love it....
LMAO ANDREW is into mustaches
TODD has such a dicky name... I feel bad for the dudes named Todd. 
Ahh come on, MARK! Your dad is OMNI-MAN, and he didn’t teach you to block a hit like that??
AMBER comin’ in clutch with the kick to the balls
BUGER MART = BURGER KING

CAAANNNNAAAADDDDAAAAA
Tumblr media
Dude, don’t psych yourself out, just do it!
He practically floated into the stratosphere and hit that ground like nothing 
TRAINING W/ OMNI-MAN
My mouth was a bit ajar listening to the pee analogy
“Try to hit me.” - OMNI-MAN
Now you know damn well he can’t hit you...

“I didn’t mean to hit you so hard.” - OMNI-MAN
dude your face says otherwise
Something is off with OMNI-MAN...
I would’ve slammed the door as well... if I lived in the same household as him ROFL
Alright, so now it’s confirmed that ANDREW doesn’t know that OMNI-MAN is MARK’s father. I thought he might of because of the whole mustache comment but that is not the case lol. 
If a guy is telling you to repeatedly him and he slowly becomes numb to it then you should probably start walking TF AWAY
Look at all that property damage....
“What about Ass Kicker? No... that sounds willful childish.” - MARK
MARK your dad is on a different level... don’t have him rock yo shit again..
I’m not vibing with the orange outfit...
“Make me.” - MARK
I could never and I MEAN NEVER say some shit like that to my mom, superhero or NOT
Tumblr media
“I’m nothing like Dad. I’m more like you. I’m nothing special.” - MARK
Well, fuck you too MARK fuck... you...too
I like how they’re just playing catch in the middle of the sky above their neighborhood like it’s nothing. 
That ball is going all the way around the world like a fuckin’ merry-go-round!
He is now...INVINCIBLE
Great solo flying sequence
“You guys think your biting off a little more than you can chew? That building has a whole in it, look!” - KILL CANNON
I liked how he asked if it was all clear after he punched him through the building.
RED RUSH + CONVERSATION = BORDEM

So everybody’s gettin’ called to the base... is there an invasion going on??
DARK WING has some cool tech!

Tumblr media

Okay so I have acquired
a FUCK TON of new followers
So let me make something... irrevocably clear.
I do not. Actually. Do. Fandom bullshit.
I observe a show that has a large fandom.
I do not care about your character stan wars. I do not care about manufactured ship wars. I do not read fanfiction. I may, on rare occasion, trip over a piece of fanart or a gif set I like, and that is RARE. 
I do not belong to any technical lane, and I sure as hell do NOT give two flying FUCKS about any Tolerance Paradox logic of whatever weird ass social conventions people imagine within their particular lane.
If people bring dumb to my wall, I am going to drag the dumb over the hill and back. I did not sign any magical social contract to play nice just because everyone’s used to operating in this completely fabricated fucking system of behavior. If you use my blog as a springboard or an anon dump just to try to be some sort of contrarian, I will make you regret that. I am not obligated to tolerate any of it.
I did not ask to be a big name fan. The better part of my fandom existence consists of hiding in discords with very select groups of people. I at best lurk in the big discords and remember they exist once a year. 
I am happy to help with organization on things or opening up ideas or pathways for people. That’s uh, literally my patron’s way. My patron is also a trickster, an inverter of forces, and exists largely to make fools out of people of all capacities. He can be kindly, as long as he is respected, and respect is shared. I match him, and thus, I match energies. 
Don’t want to feel called out, even hiding behind an anon sock? Use some basic self control and think before you hit the enter key.
My friends call me everybody’s Vodka Aunt. And it suits. Apply that in the future. I am not your Mocha Latte Mom. I am definitely not... whatever... *gestures out over a random fandom wing* that is. 
Tumblr media
I exist on a platform to talk about a show completely divorced FROM fandom’s structures, and will welcome people to talk about that show with me as long as they do not try to shove me INTO those structures. I do not use “destiel fandom meta structures” and have voiced VERY loud disagreement with many of them. I didn’t even make POLOL on purpose. It was literally the domino result of ragequitting a bunch of group chats after receiving an endless array of shitty takes, and a few friends pulling together. We didn’t expect it to become a phenomenon or even widely known. It was never an endeavor.
Vodka Aunt can and WILL throw the goddamn flipflop at you if you’re making noise.
Oh and by the way, those shitty takes I ragequit all my GCs over before making POLOL? Was people monkey climbing me for saying Dean was always going to die in the finale and that Sam was going to live a full life separated from him. The shitty takes included saying I hated Dean, or I was trying to make it all about Destiel, and more.
If you wonder why I haven’t made a goddamn PEEP towards anyone throwing a fit over Dean dying, it’s because that’s not the corporate fuckery going on and was never part of the corporate fuckery. Of the very few things that survived in skeletal forms to their ending, in its most bare bones and frankly embarassing form, that is it. That or the “cas helped” summary of one of the greatest theosophical renderings ever told. “Cas helped.” rofl oh my god “cas helped” yeah sure okay that’s how to summarize the same pathwork that led me to the conclusion on Sam and Dean, this clearly wasn’t the entire rebirth of the Axis/Anima mundi by Shadow integration and Death as an infinite vessel to become the new womb of heaven they literally blasted comedically obvious signs all over about.
Literally.
Tumblr media
Literally the same pathwork. But I’m going to guess some dipshit suit went all Hollywood Babylon asking if ghosts have superhearing and got a tired “sure whatever Jack pulled him out” (though not said in the text) or more hilariously, “Cas helped.” 
This is literally the kind of horse shit hackneyed shit Hollywood Babylon and French Mistake exist to call out and yet fandom is like “HMMMM IS THAT REALLY HOW IT WORKS THO” despite Hollywood Babylon adjacent interviews when they’re like, yes, this is literally how it works, we literally pulled this episode from notes we got.
And I’m sure, ironically, they’re patting themselves on the head for a job well done where nobody will be the wiser, despite fucking up with the 15.19 cuts (x) and despite the dub shit and dubbers explaining how it works (x) and despite Dabb literally writing an entire ode to this shit all year and admitting in-advance he knows how fucking stupid it is and despite all of that because fandom, in and of itself, will mindlessly do the shoveling for them. (x) 
Hell, despite a suit (yes I know honey you hate being called a suit and you’re more of an assistant but Suit is easier to type than Glorified Secretary That Schedules Important Things For Important People; you’ve worked for the CW since it was the WB before the merger, to the fandom, you’re a fucking Suit) fucking up in my inbox for a consistent week thinking they were getting one-up on me before they realized what all they ran their fucking lips on (be that their true attitude towards representation, be that things they admitted covid wouldn’t have truly fucked with, be that them admitting they actually appreciate the fandom tire fires because it benefits them). Congratulations, you’re why companies get away with this shit and perpetually displace blame while doing this shit on all their products. (x) (x) Good job.
But that’s the shitty takes that drove me out of even some of my more exclusive rings. Read as: me being goddamn right the whole time. 
Which about sums up 99% of the shitposts people drop on my blog. But this is my blog, not yours. If you don’t want the slipper, Not Commenting is fucking free.

The Hot List, in which the NYC Familiar Discord Ranks their Masters - Nandor x Guillermo Fanfic (one-shot, crack!)
Tumblr media
Summary: The familiars of New York City use Discord to connect and blow off steam...and also to rank their masters’ hotness. Nandor discovers this impertinence and throws an internet fit.
Tags: Crack with a touch of angst
A/N: I don’t know.

Celeste-is-Best: nngh, have you guys seen Mr. 50ss’s’s’ss instagram story????

Gigi the great: Don’t forget to vote on this month’s poll!!
Best Hair!
We’re the ones who make them look pretty--but who’s the prettiest one of all? This month we’re voting on the NYC vampire with the best hair. Cast your vote!
A. Simon the Devious
B. Nandor the Relentless
C. Tilda
D. Evan
E. Houston
F. Nancy the Relentless
---
Guillermo locked his phone with a little smile. If he could he’d vote a hundred times for Nandor’s hair. It was unlikely that his master would win against the likes of Evan, Tilda and Nancy. He’d thrown Simon on there as a joke and was kind of horrified by how many familiars seemed to be into the limp mullet look. To each their own, he guessed.
On that note, it was almost nightfall and Nandor’s hair wasn’t going to brush itself. Guillermo made his way into the crypt, lighting candles and gathering the soft brush, comb, detangler spray and hair oils. Nandor was what he lovingly referred to as “high maintenance.” He was also surprisingly pitiful for a 750-year old warlord. It took Guillermo ages every night to carefully tease out and brush the knots from his hair without hurting him. It should’ve been annoying after so many years, but the chore remained one of the highlights of Guillermo’s day. 
For one thing, he got to touch his master without being scolded or hissed at. So that was nice. For another thing, Nandor’s hair was as soft as his personality was prickly. Guillermo would often drag out the task, running his fingers through the silky strands and lightly touching Nandor’s jaw to get him to tilt his head this way or that. 
He was doing just that, as well as admiring the expanse of cream and bronze skin revealed by the open collar of Nandor’s loose shirt, when the vampire opened his mouth. 
“Guillermooo...Did you happen to get any virgins for tonight?”
Guillermo’s fingers momentarily tightened around a hank of his master’s hair. He imagined giving it a sharp tug. He forced himself to loosen his grip and replied, “No, master, I’m sorry. Virgins are getting pretty thin on the ground lately. I managed to pick up a couple people from a bible study class, though. They should taste pretty innocent, right?”
Nandor made a disgusted sound in the back of his throat before answering, “You’d be surprised.”

NYC Familiar Chat #the-struggle
Gigi the great: I know we all jealously guard our sources, but I’ve been in a dry spell for a few weeks and my master is going to lose it and drink me one of these nights. Anyone have any new leads on virgins in the area?
Gigi the great: I’ve tried the usual stuff...LARPers, church socials, chastity clubs (surprisingly unhelpful…). I’m kinda desperate!

“What are you typing over there on your intelligent phone?”
Guillermo hurriedly tucked his phone away and looked up to find his master mopping blood from his mouth with a lace-trimmed handkerchief. They were in an alleyway a few buildings down from the comic shop. The limp body of Nandor’s victim lay discarded on the dirty ground. Guillermo smiled affectionately at Nandor trying and failing to clean himself. He took the hanky from him and set about doing the job himself. The snow white fabric was quickly drenched in dark red arterial blood. 
“I was just, um...checking on another potential virgin source,” he lied. 
The familiar Discord was strictly secret. If any of their masters ever found it and saw their human servants’ uncensored discussions... The thought sent a panicked tremor down Guillermo’s spine and he thought--for the thousandth time--that he should delete the app and not look back. But the idea of continuing with this emotionally draining, thankless job without his little support system was just as disturbing. Besides, the server had really come through for him tonight.
“Well done, Guillermo!” Nandor praised him and Guillermo’s heart swelled pathetically. A small, shameful part of him imagined Nandor patting him on the head and he didn’t hate it. “That was the most delicious virgin I’ve had in months!”
“Thank you, master,” Guillermo smiled sweetly, his cheeks dimpling. Nandor watched him for a long moment and he could swear he saw his master’s eyes linger on his mouth. He shut that thought down before it could bloom into a hope that was only doomed for disappointment. 
“Well…I’ll see you back at the house.” Nandor vanished before his eyes, taking his bat form and darting out of the alley with a high-pitched squeak and a furious flap of his leathery wings.
Guillermo sighed, looked at the broken body and wondered if he’d be able to fit his car down the narrow alley or if he’d have to drag the corpse to the opening. He fished out his keys and started the short walk back to his parking spot. All the while thinking, with distracted horror, Simon the Devious beat out Nandor for best hair?!? Really?

Gigi the great: Hey @mish-bish. Sorry you’re having a hard time. If you feel up to it, check out the #support channel. A lot of other familiars have gone through this and talked about it there. Sometimes it helps to hear how others cope!

“Guillermo! Guillermoooo!”
Nandor’s panicked bellow reached him all the way in the basement where he was checking his lye supply. Guillermo huffed it up the stairs and raced into the fancy room where he found his master staring aghast at his laptop.
“Wh-what is it, master?” he asked, bent over and catching his breath.
“Someone named...Rap4Unlyfe has sent me a fake news!” Nandor wailed, gesturing to the laptop as if the device was personally responsible. 
Guillermo suppressed an eyeroll and walked over to sit beside his master. He watched in dismay as Nandor scooched farther down the couch but he tried not to let it sting too much. 
The browser was open to Nandor’s Hotmail account. He leaned forward to read the open message, unsure what to expect. The blood drained from his face as he read.
subject: rofl bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah
yooooooooooooooooOO!
Has ne1 else seen there familiars on this site??? I hypnotized mine last nite to give me his phone password and...👀 
Mierda. There were two screenshots attached. One was the survey results page from the “best hair” poll. The other was an excerpt from the chat, specifically Guillermo posting the winner of the poll and the link to the results. 
Guillermo’s face fell into an adorably distressed frown. He darted a glance at Nandor but the vampire just looked confused. It wasn’t clear if he yet suspected that his own familiar might be “Gigi the great.”
“Huh…” Guillermo leaned back and smoothed his expression into one of untroubled amusement. “You’re right, looks like fake news. You should probably just ignore it.”
Nandor punched his fist into his thigh and snapped, “But Guillermo! I cannot let this go unanswered! This...this...ludicrous insult! Imagine...me losing a hair contest. Everyone knows I have the most beautiful hair!”
Guillermo blushed magnificently, “Of course, master! This is just...a prank. Someone playing a mean trick on you. You shouldn’t give them the satisfaction--”
The laptop chimed. Guillermo dove to prevent Nandor from reaching it but the vampire simply slapped him away with a petulant whine, “Give me that! Fucking guy…”
Nandor’s lips curled into a snarl as his eyes scanned over the screen. 
“Oh, no! Now they are making a mockery of me on the ether net!”
subject: RE: rofl bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah
Oh! That is too delicious! Suck it, Houston and Nandor! 
It gets even better. Have you seen this, yet?
vamp_hot_list.doc 
“Guillermo, what is a hot list?” Nandor asked with a worried frown, clicking on the attachment. 
“No, master! Don’t--”
It was too late. He watched as his master’s eyes lit with understanding and then intrigue and finally outrage.
“29?! I am number 29 on your dirty hot vampire list!? What is the meaning of this?” Nandor bristled like an angry porcupine, his eyes shooting metaphorical quills into Guillermo’s soft flesh.
“It’s not my list, master!” he insisted and then, guiltily, “Not only mine…”
“Guillermo!” Nandor gasped, his eyes returning to the screen for a moment before pinning him with outraged accusation. “So, it is you!? You are...Gigi the great? Well, I do not think you are so great, little guy! In fact I think you’re pretty un-great right now! And disrespectful!”
Guillermo sank into the couch cushions, melting under his master’s ire and replying miserably, “It’s not as bad as it looks!”
Nandor turned back to the screen and began reading off names from the top of the list, “Viago! Nancy the Relentless! Evan! I suppose these are all vampires you’ve been dreaming of doing the hanky panky with! Putting them on the top of your list above your own master! That’s two demerits, Guillermo!”
“What!? No! Master, I didn’t make the list! We vote on it! Everyone gets a say. If I made the list of course you’d be at the top--”
Guillermo snapped his mouth shut. His face was on fire and he felt like crying. Nandor must have some inkling of his crush, right? After ten years of service? This couldn’t really be the life-ending mortification that it felt like. He waited, wide-eyed, for his master’s reaction. Nandor stared at him, his huge, dark eyes filled with shock and anger. After a long minute he turned back to the laptop, waving a hand dismissively in Guillermo’s face.
“Go to your room now, Guillermo! I need to think of how to punish this impertinence!”
Guillermo stood, barely holding in humiliated tears. He gestured to the device in Nandor’s lap, “My laptop…”
Nandor held it out of Guillermo’s reach and hissed, “No! Vampire only computer time, Guillermo!”
Guillermo left, trudging out of the room with a sinking feeling in his stomach as the sound of Nandor’s flop-wristed typing followed him out the door.

#main
Gigi the great: Is everyone okay?
call-me-karen: not fukcing great!
Imurdad | colby: Seriously! WTF!!?
Gigi the great is typing…
Guillermo lay on his little cot with the crocheted blanket his amá made for him pulled up to his chin. Tears streaked down his cheeks and the phone’s glare reflected in his glasses. He thought back to every off handed complaint, every silly photo turned into a “master-shaming” meme, every confession, every joke. All of them laid bare to the world. The Discord server started out as goofy, harmless fun. The hot list was the perfect embodiment of that. But it became so much more. Being a familiar could be lonely. You were isolated from other humans and surrounded by cold, uncaring monsters all the time. Guillermo loved Nandor. Everyone knew this...there were even memes about it on the server! But sometimes his master’s aloofness got to be too much and he needed to reach out to other humans who understood him! 
He threw his phone down onto the mattress, angrily pawing at his teary eyes and wondering if this was it. Not just the end of NYC Familiar Chat, but the end of Guillermo the Great, his long-dreamed-of vampire alias. There was no way Nandor would keep him as a familiar after this…

Celeste-is-Best: hey, if this is Nandor’s big revenge scheme I think you’re going to be ok
Celeste-is-Best: we miss you! 
---
Guillermo heard his master calling him and cringed. It had been a week since the hot list incident and Nandor had spent every waking moment making little jabs at his familiar and grousing about how he’d been betrayed on the internet. But to Guillermo’s surprisingly intense relief, he hadn’t been fired. After ten years of disappointment and hopeless pining, Guillermo half-expected to welcome the prospect of finally being put out of his misery, so to speak. He was kind of shocked, therefore, to feel happiness and gratitude that his master had decided to keep him around, even if only as a verbal punching bag.
He found Nandor in the library, smugly brandishing the purloined laptop. 
“Come have a look at your punishment, Guillermo,” Nandor patted the couch beside him. “This is what happens when you disrespect vampires on the ether net.”
Guillermo swallowed the lump in his throat and collapsed beside Nandor feeling like a man condemned. Their thighs pressed together but for once Nandor didn’t move away. He shoved the laptop at Guillermo and handed him a yellow sticky note with Colin Robinson’s handwriting on it.
“Colin Robinson has assisted in creating a webpage for your disgrace. We have done our own hot list! A familiar hot list. All of the New York vampires voted. So, now you can see how not nice it feels to have your hotness besmirched for all the world to see.”
Guillermo typed in the URL and blinked as the neon green background scorched his retinas. The page was a hideous callback to the internet of the late 1990s right down to the hit counter at the bottom. There was a border of pixelated dancing Draculas surrounding bright orange text.
NYC Familiar Hotness Ranking
1. Guillermo (Nandor the Relentless) - 19%
Guillermo looked at the screen, then over at Nandor, then back to the screen again.
“Master? Have you looked at the results yet?”
Nandor’s brow knit with confusion, “No, why? What does it say?”
He grabbed the laptop and squinted against the garish colors. Guillermo watched Nandor’s face carefully as he read the results. He looked surprised and almost...pleased at first, before giving in to his patented aggravation.
“Fucking Colin Robinson!”

New NYC Familiars Group! #welcome
Imurdad | colby: Hey @everyone! Welcome to the new Discord server. Guillermo has stepped down as a mod but he’ll still be around. We don’t have a perfect solution for the security problems we had with the last server. We’re asking everyone to be vigilant about hypnosis and if you feel like you’re losing time, please be sure to secure your phones/computers away from your masters….

subject: Something you might want to see…
Hey Nandoorman! How’s it hangin’?  
Listen, I’m sorry that your revenge didn’t go as planned. I noticed you’ve been a little short with Gizmo ever since this whole thing started. As someone who cares about my roomie, I want to advise you to knock it the hell off. Also, I don’t relish the thought of returning to the days before Gizmo came along. Do you even remember what the house used to look like? Pools of blood everywhere. Dead bodies. Melted candles all over the place...
I digress… I managed to snag this screenshot from Count Rapula. I think you may find it interesting.
Your pal,
Colin Robinson

#confessions
Gigithegreat: Hey guys. This isn’t easy for me to share but I know I’m not the only one who’s dealt with this and if I can help one of you feel less alone then I’ll be glad. As most of you know, I recently “celebrated” my 10th anniversary as Nandor’s familiar. I was convinced, absolutely convinced, that my master was going to make me into a vampire. Well, once again it didn’t happen. He made me this weird portrait out of glitter instead. And the thing is...like, I should leave, right? He’s never going to turn me and that’s the basis for our whole arrangement. I serve him faithfully, he turns me into a vampire. It’s simple, right? So why am I still here? Why am I still burying bodies for him and making human sacrifices? Dressing and feeding him? Treating him like he’s some kind of god and not an ancient cranky baby?  It’s because I’m in love with him. Hopelessly, stupidly, self-destructively in love with my vampire master who thinks of me as nothing more than a really well-trained poodle who can talk. Why? WHY? Because he makes me laugh. Because he’s fiercely protective of his vampire family and (sometimes) that includes me. Because when we’re alone he can be so adorably, painfully vulnerable and it feels like a privilege that I get to witness that side of him. Because he does ridiculously stupid but considerate things like spending hours making me a glitter portrait. When he’s happy with me I feel like I could float and when he’s disappointed I feel like being swallowed up by a sinkhole. And, yeah, he’s also man-of-my-dreams outrageously hot and I cannot believe you cretins have him ranked #29 on the hot list. It’s a crime. 
Gigithegreat: So, yeah. That’s why I stay. I’m no longer hoping for a bite that will never happen. Now it’s a kiss, a hug, a touch, a look. Anything he’s willing to give me I’ll gladly hoard in my little closet-room along with my glitter portrait. Because I’m pathetic. That’s it. That’s the confession.
Imurdad | colby: Brave words, Guillermo. Hang in there, friend.

Nandor looked uncharacteristically thoughtful while Guillermo readied him for sleep. The familiar guessed he was still angry that his little revenge plot had backfired. He couldn’t help but feel a little smug about his position as the hottest NYC familiar. Even if he was pretty sure it was mostly due to the other vampires messing with Nandor. Guillermo couldn’t really enjoy his victory, though, not with Nandor’s feelings of betrayal still weighing on his heart.
Nandor’s face was a stoic mask as Guillermo helped him undress. He cooperated listlessly, picking up his feet for Guillermo to remove his heavy boots, lifting his arms up over his head as Guillermo took off his brocade tunic. Finally, he placed his giant hand in Guillermo’s soft, small one and stepped up into his coffin. Guillermo stood by the side of the coffin as he always did, watching over Nandor with affection choking his throat. Nandor smoothed his hair down and crossed his arms over his chest.
“Sweet dreams, master,” Guillermo whispered, leaning across him to catch the lid of the coffin.
“Wait, Guillermo,” Nandor spoke without looking at him, his eyes fixed on the ceiling. “I wish to say something to you.”
Guillermo’s heart sank in his chest. Oh no...his stupid middle schooler revenge didn’t work and now he’s going to send me away… Tears pricked his eyes and he choked, “C-can’t it wait until tomorrow, master?”
“No. I must say this now,” Nandor responded, oblivious to his familiar’s internal drama. “I want to say to you that--and I think I’m being extremely gracious and lenient here--it is fine for you to have your little, pathetic familiar group on the dark internet.”
“O-oh,” Guillermo quickly swiped the tears from his eyes, “thank you, master…”
“But no more mee-mees, Guillermo! Master-shaming...very disrespectful!”
“Of course!” Guillermo laughed, delirious with relief. 
Nandor looked up at him with a final warning glance before softening, “Alright, then. As long as we are clear on that…”
There was a long beat of silence during which Guillermo found himself locked inside his master’s gaze. Nandor’s eyes were like pools of rich, melted chocolate. Guillermo imagined himself as the German kid from Willy Wonka and for a second he was in danger of breaking down into giggles. But then his master spoke in that soft, uncertain tone he only used when they were alone and he was feeling fragile.
“Guillermo...did you really vote for me to be the number one hottest vampire?” Nandor toyed with the buttons on his shirt and looked up at his familiar with a shy, open expression.
Guillermo’s cheeks burned and he wanted to laugh and hide and kiss his master on the mouth all at once.
“Yes, master, I did. You’re…” he cleared his throat and tightened his grip on the lip of the coffin, “so handsome, master. So beautiful...”
He watched his master’s chest expand with pride and his lips twitch into a haughty smirk. 
“That’s true, Guillermo. Good job for noticing,” Nandor praised him in a voice that was a little too loud. It rang with a false sense of self-assurance. After a few seconds he went on in a quieter tone, “Do you know, I--this is very silly, Guillermo, you mustn't tell anyone this--I voted for you, too. As the hottest familiar…”
Guillermo’s stomach did a little swoop and his lips curved into a blinding smile. His dumb, beautiful master thought he was attractive? Guillermo tried to reel himself in; he tried to remind himself that Nandor probably only voted for him to boost his own reputation. But--wait?--hadn’t the list been meant as a revenge against Guillermo? God, what a handsome idiot.
“Thank you, master,” Guillermo gushed and now he was certain that Nandor’s eyes strayed too long on his smiling lips and red, dimpled cheeks. 
“Alright then!” Nandor pulled the emergency break on the moment. “Time for my evil slumber. Night night, Guillermo!”
And in a slow motion moment that would feature in Guillermo’s dreams that night, Nandor reached up and put his hand over his. Nandor’s cool, smooth palm rubbed over the back of Guillermo’s warm hand and his fingers squeezed slightly. The breath rushed from Guillermo’s lungs and he could only squeak in reply, shutting his master into his coffin and moving away with a dazed smile on his face.
A muffled sound came from the coffin just as Guillermo reached the door to the crypt.
“...And I don’t think of you as a poodle…”
“What was that, master?” Guillermo called.
“Nothing, Guillermo!”
Guillermo shuffled off to his little room feeling like he was carrying a happy little flame inside his chest. For once he gave himself permission to hope without fearing disappointment.

“Guillermo!” Nandor’s voice was half whine, half growl. “It’s very difficult to sleep with that light filling the coffin! What are you doing anyway?”
The screen illuminated Guillermo’s grin as he answered, “Just posted that selfie we took to the familiar chat. They’re freaking out.”
Nandor turned onto his side, nuzzling his face into Guillermo’s neck and tickling him with his beard, “That’s nice. Sleepy time now, Guillermo.” 
“Yes, master,” Guillermo breathed and Nandor purred low in his chest. Some things had changed since becoming a vampire and others had stayed the same. Calling Nandor “master” had taken on a new, thrilling subtext.
Nandor’s arms snaked around Guillermo, tugging the smaller vampire into his chest. He let out a contented sigh and his body went still as he began to fall asleep.
“I guess I should probably leave the group,” Guillermo yawned--force of habit. “Since I’m not a familiar anymore.”
Nandor wrenched himself from sleep with the power of his own petulance, “Hey! What do you mean ‘not a familiar anymore’? Just because a guy gives his boyfriend the gift of eternal life he thinks he can quit being his familiar!? Who’s going to brush my hair?! ‘Not a familiar anymore’...fucking guy…”

BTS American Hustle Life Ep6
Ep 5 recap:
BTS are still in LA learning about hip hop. After their lyric challenge last episode, they had a little party (bbq) with Warren G to celebrate. Over dinner Warren G asked them if they got to spend much time with their friends and family and we learned the heart-breaking truth that they don’t and that it’s been 2 years since some of them have even been home.
The episode’s challenge was to shoot a music video and their task was to find some women to appear in the video. Cue some hilarious and cringeworthy moments as 7 terrified lads combed the streets trying to speak to the opposite sex. The filming was equally – if not more - hilarious to watch.
Onwards and upwards…
So they are still filming and straight away Jungkook is getting himself into some mischief. I laughed when the stylist hurried out yelping to get out of there because he doesn’t have a spare outfit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jungkook makes it back to solid ground and starts recording his self-cam again. ROFL at him running away squealing when one of the ladies plays up to his camera.
Now the ladies are in bikinis and sunbathing and the groups have to sit next to them and film. I almost couldn’t breathe from laughing especially when V, Jungkook and Suga walking away pretty swiftly after they’d finished; Jungkook saying he nearly *died* back there. And Suga grinning like he’d just been released from prison and saying he’s relieved it’s over. I really never expected Suga to be so nervous of women! He’s usually so chill.
Lol at the three of them watching Jin and J-Hope filming with the ladies (and acting fairly naturally) and Jungkook wondering how they can have fun like that as he thought his heart was going to explode and he’d die *crying with laughter emoji*
Tumblr media
 Ah, it was really no surprise that J-Hope won the challenge. He was the only one who had fun, could get within a foot of a women and not look two seconds from shitting himself LMAO.
His and Jin’s reward for being the winning team was a collectible figurine/model of their choice? Cool!
Tumblr media
Next day…
So Jin and J-Hopes next challenge is to find their beat box master but they have to beat box in the street to draw them out? I totally agree J-Hope, it’s utterly embarrassing. Yep, I had a little fast forward through that.
So they find their master, Fraahz and go back to his place where he goes through the basics of beat boxing with them. Their attempts are cute, although I think that microphone may need to be turned upside down to drain the spit ewwwwww looooooooooooooooooool.
Elsewhere, RM and Jimin’s task is to find their dance master – lol at RM’s pained reaction at having to dance again
Tumblr media
Oooooh they’re going to learn some bboying! Wow, Jimin picks it up pretty well – I always thought he was a good dancer (since he led the dance class in Carpool Karaoke) that’s why I was surprised that J-Hope was considered the band’s best. RM does a pretty good job too! They really are such a cute duo. It’s quite a unique friendship they have – hard to describe. Bet they’re knackered after that dance session though.
Yep! Well… RM is knackered.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
V(?) teasingly trying to wake him up and RM kicking his leg in retaliation. This band really do act like brothers. It’s like they’ve lived together since they were born.
Lol at Jin and J-Hope repeatedly bursting into giggles as they fail time and time again to get through their beat box and meditation practice.
****************************************** 
It’s the next morning  and RM and Jimin meet their dance teacher in the park for a little exercise (although they claim they didn’t know it was for exercise).
AHAHAHAHA RM almost dead after running a couple of laps. To be fair it’s probably scorching outside which won’t help. LMAO, the dance teacher putting the weight jacket on Jimin as the exercise was too easy for him. Poor Jimin and RM look absolutely floored by the end – I hope the walk back to the dorm isn’t too far for those tired little legs.
They’re back in the dance studio later on and poor RM get’s hit in the head by Jimin’s foot – aww. RM gets revenge by slapping a high five to Jimin’s hand/wrist extremely hard *crying with laughter emoji*. I love these lads so much <3 They are such characters.
Jin and J-Hope meet Fraahz again in the park to go over their beatboxing practice. I was impressed that they managed to get through the meditation without bursting into giggles. That part with them turning animal sounds into beats was hilarious.
******************************************** While the others are working with their masters V, Suga, and Jungkook are chilling at the dorm watching basketball and Jungkook is pretending to shoot people with a tablet… Lol, here comes Tony and N to spoil their fun! What are the three of them going to get? RnB!
Wait whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?! Hold the **** phone. Did they just say they’ve never heard of Whoopi Goldberg????!!! I ain’t from the states either man but she is a l-e-g-e-n-d. These three lads need to sit down and watch Sister Act 1 and 2 STAT.
Tumblr media
Iris Stevenson, the woman Sister Act 2 is based on, is such an inspiration.
OMG they are going to get to do some gospel singing! *squeal*
Wow, Jungkook, you have such a nice voice <3 What an absolute cutie.
This was a great thing for the 3 of them to do. Not only was Iris’s happy and motherly soul something I think they desperately needed but, from what the lads were saying afterwards, I think musically it was important they learned how to feel love for singing again. The amount of practice they had to do as trainees – and no doubt still have to do - and the type of practice, as well as the stress of trying to ‘make it’ seems to have taken a lot of joy away from their art. And that is a real shame. If you don’t like what you’re doing, if your heart isn’t in it, then how can you possibly be happy? You certainly won’t be the best you can be!
Aww V has a wonderful voice for this kind of music too. But he’s not feeling well :( You need to rest up sweetie.
Iris is such a lovely and amazing woman.
Tumblr media
Go V and Suga bragging about how great Iris is <3 Wonderful lads.
Okay, so they are going to each show off what they’ve been learning and then score themselves out of 100 “fairly”. Why do I get the feeling that “fair” will be used very loosely lol.
J-Hope and Jin did well with beat boxing although I think Jimin and RM were a little harsh with giving them a score of 69. Bet that gets reciprocated when it’s their turn. Aaaaaaaaaaaaand I was right lol. RM did really well with the dancing thought, kudos to him.
Tumblr media
Next up it’s Suga, V, and Jungkook. Aww sweet Jimin getting up out his seat to hug V and tell him how much he loves his voice <3 <3 And ten seconds later he rigs the scoring so that he and RM are not last *facepalm*. At least he takes it back at the end and honestly gives them a score of 100 points. This means he and RM lose and the punishment is….
The winners get to smash the losers faces into a plate of whipped cream. LMAO. This I have got to see!!!
Oh Jungkook… <3
Tumblr media
“Oh delicious”
Tumblr media
But Tony’s “Welcome to America” in reply just killed me
Tumblr media
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaha
Tumblr media
Look at the happiness on Jungkook’s face *crying with laughter emoji*
Tumblr media
*dead*
Tumblr media
There are so many crude analogies that I could make here… Jungkook creaming Jimin’s face and them both loving it but I will… refrain.
LMAO RM flinging cream all over the place in retaliation.
Tumblr media
So we got to see the music video and it was quite good. I felt it wasn’t very polished though as there was a noticeable difference between the colouring/lighting between the car scenes and the scenes at the mansion that you wouldn’t expect/want in a professional MV. I really like the song though.
Final musings.
Another enjoyable episode. This one was both fun and funny. The boys have got great personalities and can make even silence seem interesting. They are a delight to watch and I’m so glad I’m still at the beginning of the journey <3
Two eps to go: Episode 7 up next…

Tumblr media
꒰ ꒱ this is an idol life ship for my sweetest and softest bb @sarahbkwl​​ !! hope you like it hehe !! <33 
----------------------------
꒰ ꒱ your entertainment company
Tumblr media
꒰ ꒱ your training years
you trained for a year before debuting. 
you auditioned for the company through yg global auditions and got accepted because they saw immense potential in you and your talents. 
you were pretty shy as a trainee but goddamn, with just one year of training and consistent hard-work, you glowed the hell up as a performer and artist. [kind of the same scenario as bae jinyoung (my bb <33) of cix and wanna one]
before debuting, you appeared in some of winner and ikon’s music videos, which is where fans began noticing you. 
꒰ ꒱ number of members in your group
there are five members in your group; two koreans, one korean-american, one japanese, and you. 
two koreans :: one is the oldest, sub vocalist, sub rapper, and the visual while the other is the main rapper and face of the group 
one korean-american :: main vocalist and the leader
one japanese :: lead dancer, lead rapper, and maknae
꒰ ꒱ your positions
you’re the main dancer, lead vocalist, center, and face of the group 
꒰ ꒱ your roles
you’re the fake maknae of the group; you may look and dress in a way that is a bit intimidating, and your charisma be through the roof on stage; but off the stage, you basically radiate babie energy and your group members as well as your fans feel protective over you because of your sensitive and clumsy nature. 
also the photographer; you’re known for your photography skills and you have over ten million followers on your instagram where you often post very artistic and aesthetic pictures of yourself, sceneries/places, your group members, and anything else that inspires you really.   
꒰ ꒱ your group’s concept 
a mix of badass and girl crush with a hint of sexiness. very similar to ddd by exid.  
꒰ ꒱ your idol best-friends
Tumblr media
felix from stray kids || as foreign idols, it’s no doubt you guys hit it off immediately as soon as you guys met and got closer at MAMA. you may be shy at first but with him, it was like an immediate sort of connection. 
you’re definitely hype bestfriends !! constantly complimenting, supporting, and basically just hyping each other up. 
vedi affectionate best-friend. sends you memes at 2 a.m. 
oh and you both mc -ed for pops in seoul together and your close friendship is evident on camera; it’s just a very wholesome energy. needless to say, your friendship is one of favorites in the kpop industry.
Tumblr media
seulgi from red velvet || you two would be the sweetest angels adskj 
you guys did a dance cover as a collaboration stage and have been inseparable since then. you’re often on each other’s instagram and openly shows support for each other’s comebacks and professional projects. 
she’s the type of best friend you can talk about anything and you would just laugh about everything. expect lots and lots rofl and majority of the time, you wont even know what you’re laughing about. 
lots of cute dates at cozy and underrated cafes or restaurants in town, which are perfect places for your photography and perfect for her to try new food, especially desserts. 
also she’s really good at art, especially drawing !! you’re both just so artistically talented and similar yet different in the best way - no wonder fate brought you two together as best-friends. 
꒰ ꒱ your fanboy(s) 
the members of verivery are huge fans of your group and have done a number of covers of your group’s songs. 
kangmin especially is a huge fan of you. 
꒰ ꒱ your boyfriend (public)
Tumblr media
chittaphon leechaiyapornkul (can you tell i copy pasted that) aka ten. 
i mean we ain’t surprised at this point. it’s an established fact that you + ten = purfect. 
okay, so i see you guys being only professionally involved at first like your group and a few members of nct were doing this collaboration stage for an award show and it’s a sort of like group couple dance stage and you and ten were paired together. think of the who’s your mama dance stage at 2016 sbs gayo daejeon. similar to that aaaa 
but through the whole process of rehearsing and practicing together, you guys ended up becoming closer because i think your personalities would just click just like that. i think ten is someone who can just connect with anyone but with you, it would just be a different and special sort of connection. 
honestly, i think your relationship would be a mix of slow-burn and fast-paced. it would take him a while to ask you out or to confess verbally but his actions would show otherwise like he would do all those cute things like text you good morning or good night and face-time you regularly. he would buy you gifts. he would smile and laugh a lot more around you. 
i don’t know why i also see him following you on his finsta accounts (that you already know about) and would probably comment cheesy pick-up lines on your posts.
when he does decide to confess, he’ll be so straightforward about it but not in a way that’s overbearing - just very sincere y’know. 
you guys would probably keep your relationship private at first although he wouldn’t be the biggest fan of that but that really wouldn’t last that long. 
the dispatch catches you on a date and pictures of you two are released and both of your companies would confirm the relationship. 
and it’s a praised relationship and fans are supportive - of course there are inevitably and unfairly some negative response but overall, there’s an immense amount of positive reactions from fans that the negative ones are overlooked. 
you guys would be the epitome of a romantic couple and so artistic too augh !! 
oh and guess what, ten’s new best-friends are felix and seulgi now. eeep 
꒰ ꒱ miscellaneous 
your group gets your first win just a week after debuting, making you guys one of the fastest to win at a music show 
even as an idol, you pursue art and photography as more than just a hobby. you make your debut as an artist two years after your debut and some of your pieces are displayed at art galleries. 
your group is extremely popular and active in the US and you have collaborated with some western artists like Lauv, Little Mix, and Anne Marie. 
----------------------------
thank you for requesting angel <33 have a beautiful day/night !!
