— ❥ DISLIKES: Being left alone with his thoughts, talking to his parents, media interviews, people hurting his teammates or siblings, having to get up early, being forced to dance, any kind of tea, not being able to play, people who wear neon clothing, getting blood in his mouth, cop procedural shows, people who ask stupid questions, people being dicks, exclusionists in the queer community, small and yapping dogs.

˚✧ ₊˚ʚ FUN FACTS !

— ❥ While Casper does take medication for his anxiety and recognizes that he needs it - even if he hates to tell anyone about it - he can sometimes forget to take it. Usually one of his siblings will text him around the time he needs to take them as just a little reminder, and after he and Jamie get together, Jamie takes up reminding duties as well.

— ❥ Casper has exactly eleven scars that he’s gained specifically from fights on the ice in general, and six of them are from fights during his NHL career. He’s pretty proud of all of them, even if it wasn’t always so fun getting them, and he always shows off the one on his jaw that he got during a brawl with Matthew Tkachuk, because he’s insanely proud of winning a fight against one of the league’s biggest pests.

— ❥ Despite being a pretty young player, Casper has already gained a reputation as one of the surliest players in the league when it comes to media. There are many YouTube compilations of him being short and closed-off in interviews and snapping back at reporters or making snide comments to them or about other players, and it’s well-known throughout the league that he refuses to act in any commercials.

— ❥ Casper has been a big fan of Nirvana since he was young, and any collaborative playlist among his teammates, siblings, or friends is bound to have a few songs on it courtesy of him. His favorite song is “Heart-Shaped Box,” but he also listens to “You Know You’re Right” when he needs to let out his stress or anger and have a good cry.

— ❥ Casper has only had one panic attack while still in an arena at any time surrounding a game - when his mom texted him out of the blue after his first game with the Flyers, telling him he’d done well. He’d found an empty room to have the attack in and never told anyone about it, and to this day he’s still nervous about his teammates finding out.

Summary:

“Don't you see, Jackie?” Davey's voice was somewhere on the line between pleading and scathing. “If you can cheat on the daughter of the richest and most powerful man in New York, how can I trust that you won't dismiss me like that, as well?”

Extract:

"He said what?"

Jack slammed his hand on the table in anger, making the other newsies flinch almost simultaneously. His eyes bore into Race's, waiting for an elaboration.

"He said you cheated on Katherine. He saw you."

Jack clenched his jaw, his eyes roaming over the expressions of his companions. Even in the low light of Jacobi's in the evening, he could see the vast difference in each boy's expression.

Some, like Crutchie and Racer, had glares of defiance. They didn't believe it.

And there were others, like Romeo and Specs, with hesitancy glistening in their eyes, unsure of that stance they should take, perhaps seeing truth in it.

Jack stood, both hands on the table and leaned forward. "Youse believe that?" Jack ground out, gritting his teeth together. He watched them carefully, unable to believe it. "After all we's been through? As friends? Brothers? Don't that mean nothin' to you fellas?"

Specs pursed his lips, nervously meeting Jack's glare. "Davey ain't got a reputation of betraying people."

Silence rang through Jacobi's as Jack's muscles tensed.

He was talking about the strike. About when Jack betrayed them for money to go to Santa Fe. As if he hadn't done it to protect them all.

"Get out." His voice was low and rough. "If youse believe what David's been spoutin', I want you outta my sight."

It felt like a punch to the stomach when half of the newsies exchanged looks before slowly pulling themselves up and leaving.

Jack watched as Elmer grabbed Albert's sleeve, whispering what was obviously a plea to reconsider. Albert paused and his eyes flickered to Jack. He pulled away and followed the others out the door and into the night.

For the longest moment, Jack didn't move, still bracing himself on the table.

He let out a shuddering sigh and slumped back into his chair.

When he closed his eyes, he could see the moment, clearer than he could see the boys in front of him.

When Davey had grabbed him by the scruff of his shirt, pulling him away from the kiss, pushing him into a wall, regarding him coldly before storming away.

He didn't stop as Jack tried to shout after him, to explain.

He didn't care.

Now, surrounded by half of his boys, Jack wondered if he should have tried harder.

Castiel - First on his mind - 13x01 - 13x05 - Destiel Canon in Early Season Thirteen

So I’m still not over this.  The confession before the confession. This is the moment that I completely stopped questioning whether Destiel was canon.  At the end of season 12 Dean has just lost everyone but Sam at once. There is not much whiskey spilled for Crowley, and Sam is unwilling to accept the loss of Mary, but neither of those are what Dean is focused on.

Dean prays to god - to chuck - I think for the only for only the second time in the entire series. Dean prays in earnest for the return of Castiel.  He mentions others but he has just lost his mother and yet his first demand is “and now you’re going to bring HIM back. You’re gunna bring them all back.”  

Dean mentions everyone, his family, bobby, even Crowley, but he starts with Castiel.  It parallels Castiel’s first version of the 15x18 deathbed confession in 12x12.  “I love you. I love all of you.”  A mirrored response.

Below the cut for full analysis of Dean’s prayer, grief, and closet themes in the first 1/4 of season 13.

Dean’s prayer goes unanswered and he beats the door up in a visual homage to brokeback mountain (x). It is at this point chronologically that Dean completely loses his shit.  In the car on the way to the pirate stop Dean is unable to say the words out loud. 

 “Let’s see, Crowley’s dead, Kelly’s dead, Cass is... ... Mom’s gone, and apparently the Devil’s kid hit puberty in 30 seconds flat.” 

Sam asks if Cass is really dead and unable to say those words Dean goes stoic as he can and says, “you know he is.” Dean’s upset, very upset, and that grief and anger is not focused on Mary.

Dean gains a tiny instantaneous moment of hope from a demon who then completely smashes it.

After his prayer Dean becomes completely inconsolable, an angry vengeance machine, the killer he used to project himself to be.  The change is supposed to be such a plot point, such a surprise twist, that it is only revealed LATER that it happened.  Such a major plot point that it must be teased and foreshadowed, with Sam asking Dean, “Dude, whatdiyou do to your hand?”  Giving the viewer their third clue that Dean did not have this cut on his hand from the fight with Lucifer and Jack.

Dean spends five full episodes without Castiel after dropping to his knees beside Castiel in 12x23, and in that time we see Dean unravel.  

In 13x01 he no longer cares about secrecy, immediately explaining the situation to the sheriff.  We see him choosing to approach Castiel’s body alone, looking upon him with such deep pain, tenderly wrapping, pausing multiple times to steel himself so he can finish that task.  Sam continues to get more and more concerned for Dean’s mental state.  Dean taking out his anger and rage and grief all on newborn Jack who continues to do nothing wrong and idolizes Dean.  

We see Dean drink himself under the table, rage against Sam and Jack, and actually become suicidal, killing himself in an unnecessary way with a flimsy excuse.  Billie sees it and notes something has changed.  He no longer believes he can win and no longer wants to live.     

At the shifter Psychiatrist, Dean says that Sam is delusional because Sam won’t admit that Mary is dead, “If he admits it then it’s real. If it’s real, then he has to deal with it, and he can’t handle that.”  Yet we repeatedly see Dean trails off unable to say the words that Castiel is dead.  This is not how Dean has reacted to the loss of Sam, John, Mary, Charlie, or any other familial loved one. 

In his loss of Castiel, Dean becomes John in the aftermath of his loss of Mary. Dean becomes the abusive father to Jack that he himself grew up with.  Jack has a moment of self harm and Dean ‘comforts’ Jack by telling him he’ll kill him so he can’t hurt anyone else. 

Jody’s Speech to Patience - In Contrast to Dean’s

In addition to Dean’s grief the writers show Dean struggle with his identity - with whether to stay in the closet.  In the third episode of the season - Patience - Dean tells Patience to deny who she really is. 

“This life, [hunting] there’s no joy in it there’s nothing but pain horror and death. So if you get a chance at normal, you take it.”   

Jody corrects Dean. In disbelief.  “You don’t have to listen to him, to either of them if it’s not what you really want.” Jody then talks about her daughter Claire, her gay daughter Claire.  

“I asked her to stay in line, to fight who she really was ‘cause I thought it would keep her safe. It didn’t work. It never does. ... you try to force it down to make someone else happy, you will only make yourself miserable.”

If that isn’t a blatant acknowledgement of the metaphor I don’t know what is.  This stopped being subtext and became... text.  Jody has dropped Dean clues about overcoming toxic masculinity before. In 12x06 Jody and Dean talked about big feelings, and that conversation was preceded by Dean beings shocked that Jody could be both badass & like chick flicks at the same time.  She’s been teaching him. However, this time was much more directly and specifically about coming out of the closet, about living in a way that is true to yourself.

After the loss of Castiel, the Dean that had developed over 12 years was gone - and he only returns upon the return of Castiel, right in time for tombstone. 

Meanwhile we get Castiel’s side - where he is being tortured by the Empty with his love for Dean and his fear that Dean doesn’t love him in return. 

Everytime Dean can't say Cas is dead I die a little inside.

"...no matter who we lost, whether it was Dad or -- or Bobby or... And I would take the hit."

"...and now Mom and ... and Cas... And I -- I don't know. I don't know."

Dean was in love with Cas. Dean is bisexual. Dean has spent 12 years unwilling to admit it. 

Dean had been repeatedly lit in orange in the car rides, but the second he believes Castiel is alive his face is inexplicably relit in white light.

We then come to the final shots of the episode - where the camera COMPLETELY IGNORES SAM and focuses exclusively on zoom in reaction shots between Dean and Castiel while “It’s never too later to start all over again” plays in this conclusion to a five episode romantic longing and grief arc completely platonic reunion between two dude bros.  

We also see the Orange Light / Dean’s Ongoing Fear of Loss Motif come to it’s climax, the burning of Castiel’s body (13x01), and Castiel’s return (13x05).

I legitimately don’t know what the writers thought they were doing if they WEREN’T explicitly writing a romance story.

It was much later that we learned there was an angle we never got of their reunion, where Dean was cupping Cas's face and neck in his right hand.

But we do get the look on Dean's face in 13x06 when he's able to get his arms around Cas after he's deflected and called Cas 'Pal' again, Gif via @inacatastrophicmind

OKAY HAHA SPIDERMAN ALBERT AU

ALBERT: PETER PARKER

RACE: MJ/MARY

SMALLS: NED

MEDDA: AUNT MAY

KATH: LIZ

PULITZER: VULTURE

JACK: TONY

DAVEY: HAPPY

that's really all the characters imma be talking about-

SO since I only vaguely remember the first 2 spiderman series, I'll mostly be focusing on the mcu spiderman. (Tom Holland my beloved <3) BUT using the hurt/comfort from the other series :)

FIRST OFF nerdy albert

PLS him and smalls just freaking out about the lego death star. all a's albert, just zoning out in class and then showing up everyone. smalls and Al's casual conversations about quantum physics and hypothetical theoretical stuff

smalls is a bully <3

her favorite pastime is making fun of Albert.

"you can save the world, but not keep a succulent alive?"

“so you’re telling me you can lift a building and fight a dude trying to kill you but not admit you have a crush on toni higgins and ask him out?”

"I bet you totally got suckerpunched by Kaths dad"

"when a middle aged white man can beat up fuckin spiderman-"

and he makes fun of her back ~

"at least I can walk down the stairs without tripping"

"please, your fedoras do nothing for your facial shape" "ITS GENDER ALBERT"

"smalls, did you really tell the principal that you were watching porn at homecoming?" "pfft no, I told her I was watching hentai" "SAMANTHA"

RACE AS MJ so albert says he likes Kath, but then he looks at racetrack higgins and is smitten (higgins and smitten almost rhyme)

al: give you $10 if you go over there and ask katherine out

smalls: al i’ve told you she’s not gay

al: oh i know what you’ve said, it’s not my fault your gaydar doesn’t work on bisexuals

smalls: oh yeah? then how’d i call your crush on race?

al: i doNT HAVE A CRU— whispering i don’t have a crush on race!

you're honor, Albert and race are in love

DAVEY AS HAPPY,,,, the bathroom scene in homecoming with him and al would be hilarious

just, Jack kelly as Tony stark-

AUNT MEDDA AND HER NEPHEW ALBERT it makes the getting ready for homecoming montage so great. the scene with Tony and aunt may in civil war with jack and medda and then jack saying the food was terrible after he was out of the room

just, spider al is amazing, and I'll let @tarantulas4davey it away

[im-like-if-a-girl]

*THE* mean-girl-dean-girl's Supernatural reboot MEGAPOST!

I'm gonna stick a little "keeping reading" here because hoooooo boy, this is a very long post.

Let's start with

Plot

Season 1

Dean kills John while they are out on a hunt in a crime of passion, but Dean doesn't remember because he blacked out. Cue Dean going to Stanford to get Sam and tell him "Dad's on a hunting trip... and he hasn't been home in a couple days."

The audience doesn't know what happened to John, but slowly figures it out with Dean and Sam as Dean slowly remembers what happened that night.

The entire first season, the boys are following the trail John left and fighting monsters as well. They find out Dean was with John, Sam realizes Dean has an unreliable memory, they have heart to hearts about their childhood and the fire, they find John's body, "how could you kill Dad?" but maybe Dean didn't kill dad, whooaaaaaa, misdirection.

It was actually good ole yeller eyes (Azazel) and he made it look like Dean killed John.

Okay, now let's move on to the first episode

Not sure how the opening would work, I would like the story of the fire to be revealed over the course of the first season, but maybe the opening scene could be a little bit of an establishing character relationships and backstory, idk, I haven't thought that far yet.

I'm thinking maybe it's like, Dean gets back to a motel room covered in blood and he listens to a voicemail on his phone from John saying he was on a hunt or something, I don't really know lol.

HOWEVER

I do know that after the intro rolls, we get a scene of Sam waking up to his alarm and "Nine to Five" by Dolly Parton starts playing.

Y'all know where this is going.

Cue a montage of Sam's normal Stanford college life (him sitting through lectures, walking through the campus with friends) spliced with scenes of Dean absolutely slaughtering a nest of vampires (or some other monsters, whatever works best.)

But

Now onto

Characters!!! (And descriptions)

Dean Winchester

Some lovely person on this site made edits of Dean with platinum blond hair and it made me feel some kind of way so we're doing that, homie's gonna have platinum blond hair

Side note about the hair, later when the brothers are running from the FBI he dyes it a dirty blond/light brown (insert jackles hair color controversy here) as a disguise.

He also gets tattoos because we were robbed.

Speaking of tattoos, concept: when Dean comes back from Hell, all of his tattoos are gone. His body is a clean slate, devoid of tattoos, scars, etc. So he gets his tattoos done all over again, which he doesn't mind because he made some bad, drunk tattoo decisions in his youth.

(And before you ask, yes, he does get one for Cas, either a bee or Cas's name in enochian, something cute.)

Dean goes to therapy after Sam gets sent to the Cage.

It's actually court mandated because he got in trouble, lol, he would never go to therapy on his own.

Along with the hair, Dean gets to be the grade A twunk we all know he is.

Sam Winchester

His hair gets longer in every scene he's in

No jk, but imagine

King of Microaggressions

Sam starts off like the sweetheart he is in season 1 but in later seasons he starts enjoying killing a little too much...

It's that demon blood, ba-by!!!

He brings up issues of morality to Dean, i.e. killing monsters who aren't hurting anyone. (Yes I know this is contradictory to my previous statement, but these two facets of Sam can and will coexist.)

Sam and Jess's relationship is explored further, meaning we'll need to start with a different inciting incident, but that's fine, I think everyone can agree fridgings are *(thumbs down)*

Sam doesn't truly know what happened the night of the fire until later, and then he understands why Dean is so protective of him.

Jess

She gets to live beyond the first episode

She is also trans

No, I don't feel like I have to explain myself and I won't 💜

She urges Sam to join Dean in a search for their brother, kind of gets pulled into the hunter lifestyle by association lol.

She dies on a rusty nail after fighting vampires on a routine hunt with Sam

No jk!!!

But imagine....

She's amazing and I love her and Lucifer also uses her as leverage against Sam and possesses her because I think that'd be cool.

She supports Sam 100% and also she and Dean are buddies, pals if you will.

She meets Cas Thee El and immediately she Knows, that is a homosexual.

She dies still so that we can have a Saileen Endgame but she's not dying the first episode or in a fridging. Not on my watch.

Castiel

He gets to keep his raw, light-fixture-exploding power.

I want more of that "I pulled you out of hell, I can throw you back in" energy except over dumb shit like Dean not cleaning up after himself.

He looks like a Dilf in every scene he's in, yeah, that's right, dilf with a capital D for *(GUNSHOTS)* *(gets sent to horny jail)*

Claire

She gets pink hair

And more time with Cas

And maybe a nose piercing

Feel like she should be able to kill a couple angels onscreen, punch a couple homophobes

She gets to meet Jack and teaches him swears and fun slang words.

She deserves it.

Jack

I says "that's my baby and I'm proud."

Jack starts off as a baby, but like Amara he grows up super quickly.

Like, baby to 11 year old in a couple days or less.

This is because Jack's emotional age on the show is on par with that of a 5th grader.

It's at this point when he's a young kid that he runs away from the Bunker and shenanigans ensue.

It's also at this point that Dean threatens to k*ll him.

(Still not sure if I want that in my Supernatural (threatened infanticide? In my Supernatural? It's more likely than you think) but we'll see. We'll see.)

Throughout a majority of season 13, Jack is like an 11 y.o. kid

Season 14 he's like a 16 y.o. teenager

Season 15 he's 21, you get the picture.

Listen, I love Alex Calvert a lot. He's great.

But Jack is a child and should be a child.

Kelly Kline

Kelly, baby, stay right where you are, you're perfect.

Eileen

SHE DOESN'T DIE

SHE GETS TO BE IN THE FINALE BECAUSE SHE'S AMAZING AND I LOVE HER.

BLURRY WIFE WHO? I ONLY KNOW SAILEEN ENDGAME!

She teaches Claire and Jack swears in sign-language. Castiel is not impressed.

John

J*hn W*nchester stans, DNI.

He's dead.

We only see him in flashbacks and only sometimes hear his voice in voice overs.

He's not "down the road" from Dean in Heaven, in fact he instead gets to wander around in some Purgatory like Hell for the rest of his time :)

People who get to say "fuck" on the show:

Cas (but only Once)

Jody

Bobby

Now onto other things

I want more of

Ghostfacers

(they need more screentime because I love them)

Dean/Benny

We know they had a thing.

They definitely had a thing.

Demon Dean

Again, I feel like more should've been done with this. All that build up for what, 2 episodes? was not utilized well at all.

Dean's Bisexuality

Straight Dean truthers DNI, my Supernatural is a show about love and being true to yourself

You think Supernatural is a show about 2 straight brothers fighting monsters?

Naw bitch, this is a show about the Gay Experience

He will get to have relations with men on this show.

Of course, only after John dies does he, y'know, display it. Maybe he kisses Cas on his dad's grave just to fuck John over, make him roll in grave.

We all agree John would be/is a homophobe piece of shit, right?

Okay, glad we're on the same page.

Dads

3 men and a baby with Jack is what I'm saying.

I love it when the Trio are father-figures to younger troubled characters they see themselves in, even better if it's like reluctant-but-loving father figure, oh, that trope gets me every time :'^)

Dadstiel and DadDean are my favorites, but I like it when Sam plays "Uncle Sam" to kids too lol.

"Fellas, is it gay to want a tight knit family with your husband, his son, his vessel's daughter, your brother, his wife, your cop mother figure and her wife and their adopted daughters? Asking for a friend."

Garth

Biggest flaw of Supernatural was underutilizing Garth.

I will never not be bitter that Garth was only in like, 7 episodes out of the whole 15 season series.

Every episode with Garth gets immediately 5 times better.

I love Garth.

Follow ups on characters who had entire episodes featured around them and then just... vanished???

This is mostly about Jesse, the magic kid whose imagination ruled an entire town like, his daddy was a demon and nothing came of that kid??? Only one episode about him?? No follow up???

KID CAN MANIPULATE REALITY AND WE'RE NOT GONNA GET A FOLLOW UP ON THAT?????

Uh, there was that one episode with Ennis the guy whose girlfriend was killed by a monster? I think?? Who we never see again, that was weird.

Tamara from season 3, episode 1.

And of course-

Cassie

She was so cool, and then we never saw her again :////

She gets to be a badass.

Religious imagery

As a former Catholic school student who has become for the most part, disillusioned with religion, religious imagery in TV shows like Supernatural make my brain go "brrrrrr."

Fun episodes!!!

Like, after season 6 or so, there's a drop in funny episodes

I'm talking Changing Channels, The French Mistake type stuff. (Scoobynatural is an outlier and should not be counted.)

So anyway

In my version we would have more fun episodes

I'm thinking

GENDER-SWAP EPISODE, BABY!!

(why they didn't do that in the original, we'll never know.)

An episode where Dean gets to wear eyeliner

That's it, end of post.

I want less

Racism

Yeah I feel like this is self explanatory, nearly every reoccurring character in SPN is white, and black side characters normally die in the episode they first appear in, or they'll be featured as a villain (Uriel, Raphael, Billie, etc)

Also there's a lot of... uh... asian fetishism featured in the show (what with "Busty Asian Beauties) that's really gross, also Kevin was a bit of a stereotype...

Also also it's super yucky how they kill the gods from other religions like???? Uh??? That's super disrespectful, let's not do that????

I know Supernatural is like, inherently racist because monsters are a separate race that are seen as some dangerous "other" that must be eradicated by hunters in a form of genocide-

Okay we won't get into that but

Still

Stop killing all your POC

Fridgings/Unecessary murders of female characters

I know Supernatural starts with a fridging, so this will be a hard thing to remedy, but

One death that really pissed me off was the death of Charlie

Yeah, that was pointless and we're not doing that. Charlie gets to live and be an awesome aunt to Jack.

And also Claire

Charlie Bradbury Superiority

Charlie and Garth get to meet because they're nerd/geek solidarity.

British Men of Letters

I fucking hate these guys

They're "litcherally" the worst.

The worst part is that the actors they have playing the British AREN'T. EVEN. BRITISH.

And you can tell

Uh, and that's all for now, I'll add more later.

Jack as Hannah

Racetrack Higgins as Rachel

Albert DaSilva as Weasley

Hotshot as Daniel

Les Jacobs as Ashlee Singer

Sarah as Leah Singer

Summary:

Davey and Spot are college roommates, both are in a computer coding class. Spot does his own thing and does what he needs to get through the year. Davey lives by a rule book, especially since Davey wanted to get into MIT instead of the college he's in at the moment. It's as simple as that.

One day Spot, along with his best friends Albert and Hotshot, approach Davey. They want his help creating an app. Not a dating app, but a hookup app. An app where you can get together with guys or girls, but it never lasts longer than that one hookup. Davey disagrees for a while before Spot finally offers to help pay for a ride to MIT if he'll help with the app. He also might do it because Spot "guarantees that every guy and girl will be on the app.

This really convinces Davey because he has a crush on an old friend from High School, the infamous not so infamous Jack Kelly. And he hopes that maybe he can work up the courage to talk to Jack again after a rough patch in high school.

So they set to work. Their coding teacher, Professor Denton, doesn't believe Spot for a second when he says that him, Hotshot, and Albert are working on an app as their project in their class. Davey made it clearly known that he has no interest in being known as the true creator of the app.

The app takes off great. Spot, Hotshot, and Albert are as happy as they can be. Hotshot hooks up with any girl who wants to. Albert, the openly Bisexual in the friendship group, hooks up with the boys and girls who want to. Spot, the closeted gay of the group, hooks up with girls. He originally wanted the app as a way to secretly meet people, boys, but his own paranoia kept him from disclosing that to Davey. This doesn't stop the jealousy when Albert continuously hooks up with a certain blond boy who's profile on the app only has a name of Racetrack.

Meanwhile, Davey manages to at least amend his friendship with Jack. Jack expresses how dumb and horrible he thinks the new dating app is and discloses to Davey that he can't understand why people would voluntarily do something that hurts them, referring to how some of his friends have had bad experiences with the app already.

The first semester of college goes by. Soon everyone's off for Christmas break. Spot, Hotshot, and Albert stay on campus and spend most of the break living their dream with the success of their app. Albert's just happy to have the slight fame and some of the attention, Spot's happy with the success, and Hotshot's thriving from the fame, but not in an arrogant egotistical way. He's just happy

Meanwhile, Davey's back home. He loves with his older sister and younger brother in an unreasonably lavish home, only there because of their parents who are hardly ever home. Davey has a few minor arguments with Les, mostly because of Les' behavior while Davey was away. Including taking and making Davey's room his "Home Office"

Davey spends Christmas dinner with his siblings and the FaceTime of their parents. After dinner, Davey learns of Sarah having created a profile on a new dating app. She goes out one night, hoping to meet someone and start a relationship after her last one left her torn apart. Davey begs Sarah's friend Katherine (also the girl who's had a crush on Sarah fro years) to help him and Les essentially spy on Sarah.

It's not until after seeing Sarah's heartbreak that Davey decides the app has to stop. So it does.

Davey shuts down the app and any others like it, forcing people to go back to regular dating apps. This sparks chaos back on campus. Spot, Albert, and Hotshot are all but hunted down for the "update", as this is what they pass it off as.

Davey returns to campus and avoids the boys, saying he's working on fixing the "bug". The boys finally corner him, although they are separated by a door. They try to get into Spot and Davey's shared dorm, which Spot lost his key for, and Davey manages to sneak out the window since they're on the ground floor.

Meanwhile, this conversation is happening outside.

Spot: "Dave, open the door!"

Hotshot: "Hang on, I got this." *Pulls out a lock pick*

Albert: "Hang on, where did you learn to do that?"

Hotshot: "My cell mate." *Even though he's never gotten anything beyond a singular detention in high school*

Albert: *completely confused and worried mouthing the words* his cellmate?!?!

They see Davey missing and they start searching for him.

Davey, however, has snuck over to Jack's fraternity house.

It's not Jack to answer the door though.

It's Racetrack

And Jojo

And Romeo

And Mush

And oh boy, Davey had never felt so scared in his life. A bunch of angry, college level boys who know he's friends with Spot Conlon. He begs them to hide him, give him a place to stay long enough for Spot and the others to stop looking for him.

It's not until Jack greets him with a smile and says he's not harmful that they let him in.

They ask Davey about Spot's app and tell him about their experiences. None of it sits well with Davey and he decides to make an app based off of the people who want relationships. So he makes a proposition to the Frat House. He'll help them make an app by their own rules. The rules of actually dating. All he asks is that they provide him a place to stay just for a few hours. None of them really believe him, but Jack convinces them that it's just a few hours.

Sometime later, Davey's back in his dorm room when the boys finally catch up to him. He tries to run out again, but he finally caves while forming a plan. You see, Sarah knows he can't sleep sometimes because of his habits. And he's basically guilted Spot into getting him some food whenever he's busy because he is the one who made the app, did all the coding and everything. Sarah got Davey some tea that helps him sleep.

And he asks for some, saying it'll help him calm down. In the process, Albert and Hotshot ask for some. They're stressed because the app is down, what's wrong with a little bit of calming tea, right???

Davey never drinks the tea, but Spot, Albert, and Hotshot do. Davey notices them asleep and he quickly packs up his computer and makes an escape. But he didn't realize that Hotshot woke up right as he escaped.

And so began the chase for Davey Jacobs.

It was definitely one for the books.

Davey ran straight to the Frat house. It was Jojo who opened the door. He almost didn't let Davey in until Jack told him to. Davey convinced the boys to let him stay in a spare bedroom.

But Spot was smart, he knew where Davey would go. He figured out Davey's crush on Jack. So that's where they went.

And oh boy, were those three boys in for a rock ride.

It started with knocking on the door. Aggressive, desperate knocking.

Next came the boys. It was Jack first with Race there to back him up. The three boys though tried really hard at begging to get in.

And then came down the fury of the Fraternity.

I'm talking baseball bats, candle holders, someone's jock strap. Everything. They all but surrounded the three boys looking for Davey while Davey simply worked in the guest bedroom upstairs.

To put it simply, those three boys wouldn't even consider showing their faces around that Fraternity house for a long time.

Eventually, Davey came clean to the Fraternity. He said he helped create the hook up app, but that he was also the one to shut it down. And he helped design a genuine dating app that made it known that people wanted more than meaningless sex.

Bonus?

Jack was the one to ask Davey out. Davey was a nervous anxious wreck, but he said yes. Jack couldn't help but laugh a little bit as Davey stuttered a yes. He thought it was adorable.

Davey managed to help Spot realize what he wanted. The two apologised, along with Albert and Hotshot. They realized the cruelty of their app. And Spot came out to his friends.

Hotshot owed Albert five dollars for that one. Spot was slightly offended, but he couldn't be for too long.

Especially since he asked Albert if Race was anything more than hook up. Albert said that Race probably wouldn't even consider being friends and he told Spot to go for it.

With some encouragement from Les and Davey, Katherine finally asked our Sarah. It was so embarrassingly awkward that both boys wanted to erase the memory.

So sort of happy ending.

So that left Albert and Hotshot.

The conversation went something like this:

Albert: "So, everyone we know wants a relationship."

Hotshot: "And?"

Albert: "Wanna go on a date?"

Hotshot: "Dude, no, we've had this discussion."

Hotshot: "But like, pizza sounds great right now."

This is kind of plotless but so was the movie😂

Description

The first side most people see of Jack is the side he wants you to see. A total asshole. It’s not an exaggeration - he’s pretty much infamous for flirting with everyone, dating anyone and as a serial cheater. He’ll actively try to worm his way into your life, and then just when you start to care, he does something to hurt you. He’s strangely persistent, probably helping him to push people even further, until they snap. There is nothing which satisfies him more than managing to wind people up to the extreme, get them to the point where they give up. Adopted parents, friends, nobody is immune to this side - he even tries it on the people he genuinely cares about, as if just to see if he’ll still be able to push them away.

The second side, which most people don’t see, is that at heart Jack is a kid. He’s the type of person to ask if owls have ears at 3am, or get some childlike joy out of dumb jokes. Of course, this is the side nobody but a very small number of people see. And even if you do see it, it never lasts long. He keeps his true personality under wraps even amongst those he does like, and it only slips out if he’s extremely comfortable with you. Otherwise, he’ll go straight back to being a sarcastic, flirty piece of shit.

04: PAST

Biography: 

Jackson Kelly was born in a council estate in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, in the UK. His life prior to adoption is not something he routinely talks about, but that’s mostly because he’d rather not give people reasons to pity him: his mother, 15 when she gave birth to him, was a drug addict; he has no idea who his birth father is or was, and no inclination to find out. Jack’s first ten years of life pretty much fell into the same cycle: get put into foster care, his mother would get clean and take him back, and then the cycle would repeat. But when the cycle ended when he was ten, and he was removed from his mother’s care for good, he wasn’t ready for it to end yet.

Sure, she wasn’t the best parent. But she was his mother. Jack quickly developed a reputation for running away, always found back at the same place. Foster parent after foster parent always ended up returning him, unable to cope with his rebellious tendencies and the constant hunt for him after he had run. As he aged, he only became better at avoiding being found. It practically became a game to him, a way for him to entertain himself. So when a wealthy American heiress and her British CEO husband decided that  of all people, they wanted to foster a now thirteen year old Jack, social workers almost wanted to ask if they’d misspoke. (Jack had assumed it was a practical joke.)

Claire and George, his new “parents,” were patient. They said he didn’t have to call them mum or dad, that even after they officially adopted him two years later he could keep his own surname, that they just wanted him to be happy. They moved him to a better school, got a private tutor to make up for lost time, tried to take an interest in his favourite things. But that wasn’t enough for Jack. Eventually, the situation resulted in drastic measures: a rainy afternoon with a social worker being told that Claire wanted to move the family to her birthplace of New York, and send Jack to the school she had attended many years prior. A fresh start would be better for him, they said. As if Jack didn’t know the real reason. He couldn’t run away if he was thousands of miles away.

And that was how a fifteen year old Jack made his way to Carnifex, with absolutely no change to his desire to wreak havoc or to his somewhat disturbing attitude towards other people. Therapists paid for by his adopted parents might say he was pushing people away to manifest emotions about neglect in early life; Jack would just say that he was keeping things interesting. Either way, the next couple years of his life escaped past him, and before he knew it he was in a school office, being told that his birth mother had died.

Obviously, Claire and George freaked, as if he would do anything. Pulled him out of school for a month, flew him back to England for the funeral, and practically wrapped Jack in bubble wrap like he was a baby or something. All he wanted to do was go back to school, ignore the guilt he felt in his stomach for letting them take him away, and go back to what he did best.

Timeline: 

December 4 2001 - Jackson Noel Kelly is born in Sheffield.

2005 - Jack is removed from his mother’s care for the first time. He is frequently removed from her care and then placed back in it for the next seven years of his life. 

2012 - Jack is removed from his mother’s custody permanently and placed in a temporary foster home. He bounces through foster homes for the next few years, including one where he meets Caitriona and becomes close with her. 

2014 - Jack is fostered by Claire and George. He resists any attempt for them to get close to him, and continues to act out. 

December 2016 - Jack is legally adopted by Claire and George, acquiring US citizenship, although he does not change his surname. 

January 2017 - Jack attempts suicide. He is placed in therapy and plans are made for his relocation to the US. 

March 2017 - Claire and George move back to America, taking Jack with them. He begins attending Carnifex. He continues to visit the UK regularly to visit his birth mother, who he keeps in contact with. 

April 2020 - Jack’s birth mother dies. He immediately disappears from school for a month, without telling anyone where he went. 

May 2020 - Jack returns to Luxor. It’s later accidentally blurted out mid fight with Zander that his mother is dead. 

June 2020 - Jack graduates and Leo tells the school Jack attempted suicide. 

September 2020 - Jack legally changes his surname from his birth name - Kelly - to his adopted parents surname, Fielding. 

December 2020 - Zander and Ches spread posters around claiming that Jack is HIV positive and gave it to Balo. They don’t provide any proof for this allegation, and Jack continues to deny it.

(These are the events ur character would probs vaguely know about!!! Anything else is personal info so they wouldn’t know unless Jack explicitly told them. Feel free to ask me if you’re ever unsure if something is ic knowledge or not!) 

05: OTHER TRIVIA

- He has a fairly strong Yorkshire accent which is obviously something other characters would likely notice when interacting with him. So if he uses words you don’t know it’s safe to assume he’s just being his dumb British self so you are free to have your character question the meaning/not know. (LMK if you’re unsure tho!)

- His favourite band is Oasis (closely followed by Arctic Monkeys), favourite film is Fight Club,  go to drink is either a double vodka coke or a pint of Heineken, and his favourite place is Leadmill in Sheffield because it’s where he’s seen some bands (and fucked girls in the bathroom. Such a romantic.)

- Dyslexic, but if you mention it Jack will fight you, although it’s partially why he leans more toward math based subjects where his spelling ability is irrelevant. 

- Notoriously has a thing for redheads, although that doesn’t prevent him from being crude and sexual towards anyone he happens to meet or interact with.

- Chain smokes anything he can get his ratty little hands on (cigarettes, weed, meh) so expect him to smell of ciggies 24/7. 

- Diehard supporter of Sheffield United and insists there is no better football team even though they really suck

- Weetabix, Weetabix, Weetabix 

06: NOTABLE CONNECTIONS

Within Luxor:

- Friendships: Caitriona, Balo, Avery, Zai, Oakley, Lennon

- Former Relationships: Oakley Prescott 

- Current Relationship: Juliet McCoy

NPCS

- Claire Richardson Fielding & George Fielding: Jack’s adopted parents, who just want to love him despite him being terrible to them. 

- Lauren Kelly: His birth mother, who he misses a lot. 

- Violet Richardson: Claire’s mother, who for some reason adores Jack and considers him her favourite grandchild. Meaning Jack will probably inherit everything when she dies, although he doesn’t really think about that. 

- Emily French: His ex girlfriend from back home, also known as the only girl who Jack truly cared about before Juliet. She broke up with Jack for being too toxic, which although fair, fucked him up for a little bit. Not that he’d admit it. 

07: CONNECTION IDEAS/WCS

Exes (Lots)

Jack has a habit of dating people, dropping them as soon as feelings get involved, cheating on them, and generally being an asshole. So if you want an ex for your muse… yeah.

Enemies

Again, he tends to happily mess with as many people as he possibly can. So he’s probably gotten on the wrong side of at least a couple people.

Friends (fake or real)

Like when he dates, he tends to get close to people before ditching them or screwing with them. So people who think they’re his friends but who aren’t really as close as they think are very welcome. I’m also down to have a couple people who can be the few he genuinely cares about.

08: TL;DR

If you already knew Jack at Luxor:

Little has changed! He’s the same manipulative dick as ever except that he has legally changed his surname. Your characters are tots fine to comment on the change, it’s not a secret or anything. 

If this is your unfortunate first experience with Jack: 

Jack is manipulative, crude, outright insulting, and nasty. He enjoys nothing more than messing with people, and often acts friendly initially just to hurt you later. He is British, adopted, and I call him rat man.

[brooklynishere]

In response to your last post, yes exactly! I also forgot to add that I hope your day has been going wonderfully until now!

Okay so thinking about it I think the best choice here would be Jack and Katherine So like Let’s see - Katherine and Bill and Darcy have all been friends since they were kids, and both Bill and Darcy have DEFINITELY told their fathers they were sweet on or courting Katherine just to get them off their backs. I think Darcy and Katherine have been friends ever so slightly longer.

- their fathers have definitely had a good old ‘boys will be boys’ chuckle over the two of them fighting over Katherine.

- obviously they are w r o n g

- Thing is, Darcy has actually been sweet on Katherine since they were very small, he’s always been kind of nervous and she’s always been so forthright that he’s just looked up to her forever. When Bill comes along he figures out relatively quickly that he really admires him as well, and as he grows up he works out what that means.

- Bill thinks she’s pretty but he’s always sort of... not allowed himself to like her, because he knows how much she hates their father’s expectations, and he thinks they’d be playing right into their hands if they became an item? Besides, he can see the way Darcy looks at her and he’d never hurt Darcy like that not in a hundred million years.

- It’s only when he’s a little bit older that he realises he’s in love with both of them.

- Now Katherine is oblivious to how much they both adore her, but she can see that they adore each other, and she basically wingwomans them into a relationship with each other and they’re delighted, of course, because they are completely smitten with each other and it’s nice to have someone like Katherine be so supportive of them, and they think they can be happy together even with the pressure of society on their backs

- And maybe they have the tiny, idle fantasy that one of them could still marry Katherine as a cover one day.

- And Katherine’s happy for them too! She is! She loves them both! Only she loves them both, but then the strike happens and she gets swept up with everything and falls for Jack and it feels like a happily ever after and everything is fine.

- (And Darcy and Bill, late one night, sit on Darcy’s balcony and admit to each other that Jack Kelly is one handsome man, and Katherine’s very lucky. And Jack’s very lucky too. And sentence by cautious sentence they admit to one another how they feel about Katherine)

- Now because Darcy and Bill and Katherine are practically inseparable, suddenly Jack is dragged into their world, and he’s awkward as hell about it (and oh no, think Bill and Darcy, because he’s adorable) but bit by bit they make him feel welcome, and Jack flirts with them and draws pictures of them because he’s a disaster bisexual who cannot turn it off, and slowly they both fall for him as well. - So Katherine and Jack are both people, in my mind, who are very observant about these things for anybody except themselves. So Katherine watches Bill and Darcy fall in love with Jack and has no idea what to do about it, and Jack watches the way they look at Katherine and the way Katherine looks at them and when she says one day, in a platonic sense that she loves them, he tells her he knows. He knows and they love her too.  - And it all gets a bit angsty and dramatic because that’s Jack Kelly’s signature move because he wants Katherine to be happy and thinks she should go and be with them, and Katherine is like but we all love you too, you actual idiot. - So when she finally gets through to Jack the two of them go back to Bill and Darcy and basically like lay everything out for them and Darcy is kind of politely horrified at them being so forthright and Bill is just amazed and Katherine basically lays out this plan for the four of them to be together because she is most definitely the brains of this operation. - And that’s how it happens. Wow that got long. I hope you liked it anon!

Summary:

Inspired by Age of Madness’s cover of Major Tom.

“Guys? Are you hearing me?” Jack laughed nervously. “This isn't funny. Come on.”

His chest tightened and it was like his lungs were struggling to take in air. His hands began to shake as he dropped everything and desperately fumbled with the radio, hoping he had just accidentally knocked something out of place.

“Specs? Race? Crutchie?”

He was stuck in space, with no means of communication to Earth. But he'd be fine, right? All he had to do was collect the rest of the data and head back to Earth. He could do that alone.

(Sneak Peak):

The sky around him began to darken as he pushed past the layers in the air, and in what seemed like mere moments, Jack Kelly had finally made it to space.

Back in Control, everyone was yelling in a joyful frenzy. "We put the cowboy in space!" Race whooped, earning some cheers and eyerolls.

Davey's smile was so wide, it felt like his face would split. "You made it, Jackie!"

He could practically hear Jack beaming. "You get to tell everyone your husband went to space," he teased.

"Yes! Bragging rights!" They both laughed. "Bring me a souvenir, will you?"

"Sure, I'll just stop by Mars, on my way back, and pick up some of that red sand."

Specs cleared his throat. "If you two are quite finished-" He was also smiling, as if he couldn't believe their mission had come to fruition. "We've got a mission to complete."

[queercapwriting]

Hey Cap! I don't think I ever told you but my gf and I (still blows my mind) have been dating for almost 11 months but she still hasn't told her parents because she's afraid of how her dad will react. I was wondering if you could maybe write a thing about Lena going to one of the superfriends and talking about how she can't tell her mother about Kara.

She brought a bottleof wine and her worst insecurities, and the vague hope that Alex wouldn’t hate herin a few hours.

Lena was alwaysworried – that she was one social misstep away from the people closest to herrealizing that they actually hated her, that there was nothing about her tolove.

Especially when sheasked for things. Anything, really. She was supposed to give and work hard andgive even more and work even harder. She wasn’t supposed to take.

But she was asking totake tonight, because all she’d texted Alex was “can we talk?” and as afollow-up – so she wouldn’t make up something benign, backing out of theconversation she really needed to have – she wrote, quick and hasty anddesperate – “it’s about Kara and my relationship, and my mother.”

Her mother.

If anyone in theircircle of friends understood, it would be Alex.

She didn’t know howshe’d wound up in a group of friends with mothers who were all either absent ordead, or – in her and Alex’s case – very much alive and very much thinking theyloved their daughters well, but in reality coming up short – very short – oh somany times, in oh so many ways.

But maybe it wasprecisely that – daddy issues, mommy issues, general parent and trauma andabuse issues – that brought them all together, that made them recognize eachother, really see each other whereother people couldn’t, or didn’t, or chose not to.

Which was why she wasknocking on Alex’s door, shaking hands and bottle of wine and Kara’s oldNational City University sweatshirt hugging her just right, just comfortingenough to give her the courage to not knock and run.

Alex tugged the dooropen with a lopsided grin and groaned in a way that Lena could never determinewhether Kara got it from her or she got it from Kara when they saw food ordrinks they loved.

“Oh my god you are the greatest person,” Alexsaid, taking Lena’s hand in one hand and the bottle of wine in the other andpulling her sister’s girlfriend inside.

Lena marveled at thetouch, the casual intimacy it implied. She knew that Alex knew by now that Lenawelcomed her touch, her hugs and her hand grasps and her hand on her arm, herknee, when they laughed together at Game Night, at the bar. But still, Lenamarveled at it every time.

The touch and theacceptance and the no strings attached.

“So talk to me,” Alexsaid, without preamble, as she opened the bottle of wine with a crisp pop.

“Um,” Lena gulped,drumming her fingers on Alex’s spotless counter top. “No Maggie tonight?”

“Working late.” Aghost of a grin passed over Alex’s lips as she poured a generous glass forLena. “And then she and James, Winn, and Kelly are grabbing a drink. Brainy andNia are probably going to join them, and then you know, it’ll be up to me tomanage all the hangovers.”

Lena grinned,remembering the last time they’d all gone out. Another night marked withmarveling of being accepted, being welcome, being… herself. Kara’s arm casuallydraped around her shoulders, or holding her from behind, or grasping her hand, gentleand perfect and right. And no oneminding, no one thinking anything of it except being happy for them, beinghappy that they finally admitted how they felt, that they finally kissed, forcrying out loud.

“So?” Alex repeated, tothe point but open. “Kara and your relationship and your mother.”

Lena’s eyes widenedslightly at the direct invitation – she should expect nothing less from thedirector of the DEO – and took a gulp of her wine.

“I don’t know how totell her,” Lena admitted, plunking down on the couch in a way that no oneoutside of this family she was growing would associate with the refinedbusiness woman-science genius Lena Luthor.

Alex sipped her wineand tilted her head, and Lena smiled slightly. She wondered what mannerisms shewas picking up from Kara, like Alex was picking up mannerisms from Maggie.

“How to tell…”

It was a gentle prompt– nothing Lena had been used to or understood until she fell into this family –and it unnerved her as much as it made her feel cared for.

“How to tell mymother. About Kara and me.”

Alex nodded, slow andunderstanding. Lena stared into her glass, worried that her face was turningred, worried that Alex would tell her she was being ridiculous, that she was agrown woman, that she and Kara had been together for almost a year and it was immatureand stupid and hurtful that she hadn’t figured out how to tell Lillian yet…

“Because Kara’s aSuper or because Kara is Supergirl?”

Lena chuckled at thepun, at Alex’s gentle way of asking if Lena was out to her mother.

She tossed her handsup, nearly sloshing her wine, and shrugged. “I don’t know. Both? She knows, shemust know, about me and Sam, and me and…” Lena’s eyes sparkled mischievously,just for a moment, a brief moment of bemusement in her pain and anxiety. “Well,me and just about every woman I was close with in boarding school…”

Alex raised her glasswith a grin, and Lena clinked them together with a shake of her head. “But thenagain, I didn’t tell her about Jack, either. I never told her who I was dating.I assume she knows, of course. That I’mbisexual, that I lean more towards women, that… I assume she knows. But we’venever discussed it, because we’ve never discussed my personal life beyond myapparently endless list of failures…”

She glanced up atAlex, then, not wanting to pry. Not wanting to make her talk about Eliza if shedidn’t want to. But she watched Alex’s eyes, and knew that Alex knew why Lenahad chosen her to talk to. And instead of calling her selfish, instead ofhating her for it, Lena marveled – again, again – as Alex just shifted to getmore comfortable on her part of the couch, settling in, leaning towards Lenainstead of away. Lena searched, hard, for signs of discomfort or annoyance. Shefound none.

It confused her, andit made her feel like she was flying, safe in Kara’s arms.

Alex sipped at herwine, long and thoughtful. “When I came out to my mom, I don’t think she wassurprised. I think she was… I don’t know, sad that I’d felt like I couldn’ttell her. I told her I didn’t want to disappoint her, and she… it was hard.”Alex downed more wine. “She hugged me, and she told me she loves me, and itfelt amazing. But it also was frustrating, because of course I felt like she’dbe disappointed. She’s been disappointed in me for most of my life, you know? Iwas never good enough, never took good enough care of Kara, or… of course Ithought she’d be upset, but she acted so sad and confused that I would thinkthat of her. And that was hard, because it was just… infuriating somehow, I don’tknow.”

Lena nodded. “Iunderstand that. I do.”

Alex smiled sadly. “Iknow you do. So. How much of it do you think it’s because she’s a Super and howmuch of it do you think is because she’s a woman?”

It was Lena’s turn tosmile. “Who knows? 50-50, 70-30? Sometimes it feels 100% like one or the other…but another part of me thinks, does she even deserve to know? About my personallife, about my loves and my wants? Has she earned those parts of me? Especiallywhen she might turn around that trust and hurt me with it?”

Alex nodded. “And yetall we want, still, is for them to tell us they love us and are proud of us.”

Lena let a tear, justa single one, drop from unblinking eyes.

Alex leaned over andsqueezed her hand. Lena squeezed right back.

“She doesn’t deservethe power to hurt you like she’s hurt you. But she’s got it, and it’s okay totake your time deciding what you want her to know. Because even if she doesn’tdeserve those parts of you, if you want to share with her, you should beallowed to do that. And know that we’ll all be here for you, whatever herreaction.”

Lena sniffledslightly. “You sound like your sister.”

“Good, I’m glad you’retalking to Kara about it, too.”

“I’m just scared thatit hurts her. Talking about it. I don’t want her to feel like I’m ashamed ofher, or like I’m hiding her.”

“But Lillian isterrifying and has also tried to kill Kara several times, so. Your hesitationis more than understandable.”

“Also what Kara says,”Lena chuckled. “She says she’ll wait as long as I need, and in the meantime wehave our own family, but I still worry. That she’s protecting me from her hurt.”

Alex nodded, chewingat the inside of her cheek. “And if she is, then it’s her job to tell you that.You’ve got to take care of each other, and that includes telling each other allof it, good, bad, and indifferent.”

“When did you becomethe sage old lesbian?” Lena narrowed her eyes, but the corners of her lips gaveher away.

Alex laughed. “Maggiehas an odd effect on me.”

“It suits you.”

“And Kara suits you.It’s no one’s decision but yours, Lena, but whatever it is, we’re all here. Ipromise. Okay?”

Lena smiled, becauseokay. Yes. She did believe it. Maybe for the first time ever.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Jack, oh my God,” Davey put his face in his hands as his best friend/dumbass crush stood on the desk, trying to reach the book stuck on top of the cabinet

Someone had thrown it up there to mess with Davey before class had started and he didn’t have the motivation or courage to stop them. It made Jack’s blood boil but Davey wouldn’t tell him who did it. He assumed it was one of the Delancy brothers and he already had a prank planned to get them back. It went without saying that Race was onboard with any prank/and or general shenanigans they could ever get themselves into so he had at least one person for backup. If he had Race he’d have Spot, and no one in their right minds messes with mister Spot Conlon.

Class was now over but they were waiting on their friends to arrive so they could walk on to the GSA meeting together. So it was currently just to two of them. Which was. Fine… Davey guesses. Just absolutely lovely.

Oh, who was he kidding? It was getting harder and harder for Davey to ignore his not-so-platonic feelings for his friend. It was even harder when Jack happened to be a disaster bisexual that flirted with everything vaguely human-shaped. (None of his friends will let him forget the time he drunk-flirted with an actual statue last Halloween)

“Hey, I’m tryin’ ta save your book! A little gratitude would be nice!” he exclaimed, not looking back at him.

“Jack, I’m like a foot taller than you, why not just let me get it?” he deadpanned, knowing for a fact that it was more like three to four inches.

“Yeah I think you’re getting mixed up with that four-foot-tall wanna be8 biker boy,” he grinned, finally looking back at Davey so he could wink, then went back to his futile book rescue mission.

Davey snorted, fighting down the blush that crept up his neck. “Oh yeah, I’ll tell him you said that”

“Please don’t, he’s just the right height to knee me in the balls, as he likes to remind me” he shuddered “daily.”

Davey grinned triumphantly “don’t mess with me Kelly, I could willingly bring your demise”

“Oh you wouldn’t, ya love me too much!” Davey hummed, pretending to think about it.

“That’s debatable”

Jack gasped dramatically, throwing a balled up piece of paper sitting on the shelf right by his face at the taller boy, “how dare you! I’m savin’ your book here!”

Davey ducked to dodge the projectile paper and just laughed. Jack made a sound of triumph as he finally got his finger hooked on the edge of the book and pulled it down. Just as he was about to jump off the chair is slipped out from under him and he almost fell off.

Davey was out of his seat in an instant, wrapping his lanky arms around Jack’s waist and making sure he didn’t land square on his face. (His stupid pretty little face)

“Jesus Jack! Are ya okay? Oh my god, ya almost got hurt, good lord Jackie ya coulda broken somethin’-” he started rambling, pulling Jack out of the weird half-dip pose they were in but not moving his hands. His accent was coming out and Jack had to stifle a laugh. He always forgets Davey is from North Carolina and hearing him sound like a true Southerner was absolutely hilarious and adorable at the same time.

“I got your book” Jack cut him off, holding the book in between them.

Davey just stared at it and blinked before he snorted and pulled his hands back, bringing one up to cover his mouth as he laughed. “You are so dumb” he managed in between breaths.

He reached out to grab his book but Jack pulled it just out of reach, placing a hand on Davey’s chest to stop him from just reaching around Jack with all his Lank.

“Uh huh, nope. I saved you, the damsel in distress, now you owe me something” Davey rolled his eyes and reached for his book again.

“Oh really? And what would that be?” he asked, crossing his arms and leaning back on his heels.

Jack hummed, pretending to think as if he hadn’t had this planned since the moment he (rather valiantly, might he add) offered to do a recon mission for Davey’s book.

“I think it’s only fair we stick with the Disney cliche and you can just owe me a kiss,” he said finally, leaning a bit closer and grinning in what was supposed to be a charming way.

Davey froze, going beet red. This was a joke right? Just one of Jack’s shitty flirty jokes. But then he was looking at him and leaning a bit closer and holy fuck did his eyes just flick to Davey’s lips? Holy shit.

Jack stayed put for a beat longer before he started to think, hey, maybe this wasn’t the genius plan you once thought and you should probably apologize and just. Run away

“Heh, sorry. You don’t have too, obviously, I was just-” he was cut off by Davey as he yanked him forward by the collar and crashed their lips together in what he considered the bravest thing he’s ever done.

Jack immediately dropped the book and brought both his hands to pull Davey closer by the hips. Davey’s hands wandered up to tangle in his hair and Jack grinned into the kiss.

When they finally pulled back they were both breathing harder than they should be. It wasn’t even an intense kiss but I guess that’s what happens when you pine for so long. Everything feels more intense than it really is.

Jack breathed out a laugh “wow, didn’t think you’d actually do it” he said, not daring to raise his voice above a whisper.

Anxiety flashed through Davey’s eyes and he moved to untangle his hands from Jack’s hair, “Did you- did you not want me too? I’m sorry, wait, shit sorry I’ll just-”

This time Jack cut him off, pressing his lips back to Davey’s. When he pulled back again he was smiling.

“You think too much” he rasped, eyes still closed and forehead pressed to Davey’s.

“You don’t think enough” He countered, kissing him again.

They were pressed flush against each other and didn’t separate again until they heard Race gasp dramatically and declare his innocence lost and the rest of their friends congratulate and/or make fun of them for taking so long. Davey blushed beet red and buried his face in his hands and Jack waved them, off telling Race that “Spot took yer innocence long ago!” and wrapping an arm around his waist he felt.

“Oh, bullshit! You know damn well it was I who corrupted him! Turned our favorite mister bad boy here into a queer!” he draped his arms across Spots shoulders and Spot just rolled his eyes.

“Oh yeah, sure Racer. We’ll pretend” they continued to argue over who took who’s innocence as they walked to their meeting, the rest of the group occasionally joining in the heated debate. Jack’s arm didn’t leave Davey’s waist and listening to his dumbass friends argue and his dumbass boyfriend(?) join in, he honestly knew he  wouldn’t have it any other way.

To say Albert was looking forward to meeting Davey Jacobs that morning would be like saying a person looked forward to being bitten by a rattlesnake. But, he still managed to maintain his composure as he rode the subway with Jack and Race downtown to the NYC FBI Headquarters.

The PA system crackled to life, announcing the station they were approaching. Beside him, Race tapped his shoulder, signaling that this was their stop. Even after all these years, race still had the subway map memorized.

After climbing back up to street level and walking a few blocks, Albert paused outside a seemingly normal office building. “This is it.”

“Ah yes, headquarters,” race paused to pop a mint in his mouth, “my old friend.”

“This is headquarters?” Jack stared up at the looming office building. “It looks so-”

“Intimidating? Deadly?” Albert draped his arm around jacks shoulders.

“I was going to say mundane,” jack said as race opened the front door.

“Oh please,” race paused to flash his badge at the person at the front desk and gestured for Albert and jack to do the same. “This place has guns that come out of the windows and elevators that can explode.”

“You know that’s not true, Race, stop trying to scare him.” Albert pressed the up arrow on the elevator. “Besides, if this place did have the technology to do that, it was probably lost when we almost exploded the weapons lab.”

“Am I ever going to hear that full story?” Jack asked as the doors opened and they stepped inside.

“No,” Albert and race said in unison as race hit the button for floor 68. After the doors closed, Albert spoke up.

“So, here’s the plan,” he said. “I’ll do all of the explaining, and race will answer questions with me. You,” he turned to jack, “are not to speak unless you are directly asked a question.”

“Sounds good,” race agreed, for one not complaining about not doing the talking.

The elevator pinged, announcing their floor. As they stepped out, jack spoke up. “This Davey Jacobs person that we’re meeting with, is he really as scary as you guys say?”

“No,” race smirked as he opened the door to Jacobs’s office. “He’s way worse.”

Albert groaned. He would rather die again than go to this meeting.

•••

10 minutes later, the three of them were being shown in to Jacobs’s very large corner office by a bored looking secretary. Jacobs barely glanced up from his computer screen in greeting.

“Oh Dasilva, I see you’re still alive,” he sighed, still typing away.

“Don’t sound so disappointed,” Albert said as he, jack, and race took a seat on the couch across from Jacobs’s desk, “I might think you don’t like me.”

Jacobs wisely chose to ignore Albert’s comment. “Look, I’m going to be perfectly honest with you. I don’t want you guys here.”

Beside him, Race let out a snort. Albert subtly stomped on his foot.

“But, you have somehow managed to become two of the best FBI field agents in the country, so I’ve decided to give you one more chance.” Jacobs paused to reach into one of his desk drawers.

While he was distracted, Race leaned over to whisper in Albert’s ear. “Was that a compliment?”

“I think so…?”

Race made direct eye contact with Albert and dabbed. Albert and jack had to bite their lips to keep from laughing.

Jacobs, meanwhile, pulled a file folder onto his desk. “You are the third set of agents to try this case. The first two who tried ended up having to flee the country 4 years ago. I cannot tell you their names for safety reasons.”

Albert and Race exchanged glances. Jack looked scared.

Jacobs was unfazed by their reactions. “The next two to try were your friends from training, Finch and Buttons. They barely got any information before YMONY got onto them and they were attacked while searching a warehouse. That was six months ago.”

“Are they okay?” Race asked immediately.

“Buttons is fine and working for Medda at the coffee shop.”

Albert nodded, he remembered Medda mentioning that the day before.

“And Finch?” Race asked hesitantly.

“Out of commission until further notice,” Jacobs said without looking up from the case file.

Race bit his lip and jack gulped wile Albert silently pondered ways to strangle Jacobs with the office supplies on his desk. He had been very close with Finch in training, and he was one of the best field agents that he knew and he had impressive aim with a slingshot.

“You can see why I was hesitant to put any of my guys on this case after that,” Jacobs continued. “But then we got the note, and I knew we had to try again. So I called you guys.”

Albert’s blood was boiling. “So, you just want to get rid of us?” he asked incredulously.

“Well when you put it that way it sounds so unpleasant,” Jacobs said, turning to face Albert for the first time, hands folded in front of him, a thin smile playing on his lips.

Race wisely chose not to say anything while Albert glared at Jacobs as he went back to sifting through the case file.

“Damn it,” Jacobs muttered, picking up his desk phone. “Excuse me for just a second,” he said, standing up and looking out the window at the impressive view of the city as he talked.

“God, he’s even worse than I remember,” Race muttered, rubbing his temples.

“He actually wants us to die,” Albert agreed, sneaking a peek at jack, who looked scared out of his mind. “How you holding up, jack?”

Jack shook his head. “I’d rather be back in foster care than here right now.”

Albert let out a small laugh. “Don’t let him get to you, we’ll crack this case right open and show him who’s boss.”

Jack attempted a smile as Jacobs hung up the phone and came back to his desk.

“Sorry about that,” he said, sitting back down. “I left a piece of information out of your case file and had to have my intern go get it.”

As soon as he finished the sentence, there was a knock at the door.

“That would be her now.” Jacobs said. “Come in.”

The door opened and a girl about Jack’s age with long reddish hair and bangs stepped in. She was wearing black dress pants, heels and a white blouse.

“Here you are, Mr. Jacobs,” she said, handing over a folder.

“Thank you,” Jacobs said. Then he turned towards Albert, Race and Jack. “This is my intern, Katherine Plumber.”

Katherine waved at them. Albert almost laughed out loud when he saw jack practically drooling. That’s what you get for being a hormonal bisexual disaster, he thought.

“Katherine was being trained by Finch and Buttons, but until, well, if, Finch returns to the field, she’s splitting her time between interning at my office and working with Buttons for Medda.”

Oh fantastic, Albert mentally groaned. He was going to have to deal with Jack drooling all over Katherine at the coffee shop. Race must have picked up on this as well because Albert could see him - unsuccessfully - trying to suppress his laughter.

“Anyway,” Jacobs waved his hand dismissively at Katherine and she left the office. “These are the field reports for the two previous attempts to crack this case.” Jacobs slid the file across his desk toward Albert, who looked through it briefly before closing it.

“So,” Jacobs said, folding his hands on his desk. “Why don’t you tell me what you’ve found out?”

“Well,” Albert said. “We decoded the letter, and it led us to a guy named Spot who is in YMONY and wants out. We met with him yesterday and he’s willing to work with us to bring them down in exchange for immunity. And, uh,” he paused, clearing his throat. “Race is going undercover as a gang member to get inside information.”

As soon as Albert mentioned Race’s role, Jacobs grinned like a maniac. It took every ounce of self control that Albert had not to slap him in the face. That was his best friend going into one of the most dangerous gangs in the world, and there was a very real possibility that he could die. It was not a laughing matter. But, somehow, he kept a neutral face.

“Sounds like you guys are in the right track,” Jacobs said approvingly. “As always, you have access to any of our resources, except the weapons lab.”

Race rolled his eyes and Albert couldn’t help but agree. As if they needed anyone’s help, especially Jacobs’s or his pretentious weapons lab. They would be doing this themselves.

“Of course,” Race said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

“And you,” Jacobs said, turning to jack with a fake smile. “Jack, right? Are these two doing a good job training you?”

Albert squeezed his eyes closed. Don’t screw this up, jack, he thought.

“Yeah,” jack said, shooting the fake smile right back at Jacobs. Damn, Race had taught him well. “They’ve taught me so much, way more than I learned in training. And they’ve done such a fantastic job making me feel welcome in their hectic lives. We have so much fun out on the road and during missions. I couldn’t have asked for better mentors.”

Albert felt his heart grow three sizes and Race’s smile could be seen from space. This was the first time they had trained anyone, and he was glad Jack was speaking highly of them, especially in front of their worst enemy.

“Oh, well then,” Jacobs said defeatedly. “Good job I guess.” He spat the words out like they were poison, which on any other occasion would have made Albert flaming mad, but this time he savored the moment.

“Alright, I expect weekly reports,” Jacobs said, standing up, Albert, Race, and Jack following suit.

“Will do,” Albert said.

“Dasilva, Higgins, Kelly, good luck. Now,” he gave them a sickening smile. “Get out of my office.”

They didn’t have to be told twice. The three of them booked it out of the office and into the hallway where they had a victory dance party for passive agressively kicking Jacobs’s ass.

“Jack, bro, I didn’t know you liked us that much!” Race exclaimed, ruffling his hair playfully.

“Well,” Albert said. “He could have been just saying that to save our asses.”

“Are you kidding me?” Jack smiled at them. “You two are like the older brothers I never had, I meant every word of that.”

“Aww, jack.” Race went in for the hug, and Albert followed suit. It felt good knowing they were having a positive impact on someone else’s life. Albert could tell that Race especially was enjoying this.

“Wait,” Albert said, pulling away. “That was a very successful meeting. You know what that means?”

A smile stretched across Races face, lighting up his bright blue eyes as he stared at Albert. “Time to jump in the elevator on the way down!” He said excitedly as the two of them bolted toward the elevator.

“But that thing was so faaaast,” jack whined from behind them.

“The faster the better,” Albert winked as he hit the down button. They had just endured a meeting with their mortal enemy, they definitely deserved a few minutes of acting like children.

IM DYING FOR JACK (NEWSIES) DATING A TRANS GUY CAN YOU HELP ME?? (JACK IS BISEXUAL AND NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT FROM ME)

Hello and thanks for the prompt, I was in a bit of a writing rut, so thank you! I’ll do my best! So context here - Jack and Crutchie are still in high school, spending Halloween break at Jack’s families hunting cabin on Lake Ontario, I got really into it so it’s nice and fluffy! - Apologies for any geographical errors, I’m definitely not a New Yorker! ***************The old pickup bumped and rattled down the track, its headlights creating gaping shadows between the trees. Jack flexed his fingers on the steering wheel, allowing a lazy smile to stretch across his lips. Country music spilled softly through the speaker, but apart from that, the only noises he could her were Crutchie’s deep, slumbering breaths and the sound of his own engine. This is the life, he thought, satisfied. The city, it could keep its noise. To hell with its skyscrapers, its fast cars and neon lights. The people there, they were so busy, so rushed, as though they were ants under a magnifying glass - as though life itself were a fever. No, this was the life for him. He had spent too long cooped up in that concrete jungle, where even the rain was tainted before it hit the ground. Where he was Jack the Cowboy, Captain Jack, Jack the artist. Sometimes, all he wanted was to be a nobody, lost amid the lonely grandeur of the woods.

Crutchie woke to the sound of gravel crunching beneath the tyres, bleary-eyed and stiff. The sky had changed since last he’d seen it, the navy velvet of the city subsiding into a magnificent black, punctured by millions of tiny points of light. He craned his neck against the glass, studying the moon as she smiled down on them, creamy and plump.

“Hey babe, you awake yet?” Jack murmured, leaning over to rest his hand on his girlfriend’s shoulder. Crutchie turned to him and nodded, smiling. Jack brushed her cheek gently with his lips, her ringlets tickling his nose. She huddled further into her cocoon as sharp breeze stung her eyes and made her skin prickle. She slept better in Jack’s pickup than she did anywhere else. Maybe that was because that was their little nest, safe against the world. Maybe it was because it reminded her so much of Jack - of home. After all, that’s what a home is, isn’t it? Somewhere you’re loved, no matter who you are, what you feel inside.

The first thing Crutchie heard the next morning was the music - hundreds of birds, like a great choir, rising and falling above each other, a great symphony of shrills and whistles and chirps. The sun traced her face with its warmth, bathing her the insides of her eyelids in swirling patterns. She could feel Jack’s arm slung loosely across her stomach, a dead weight as its owner snored softly into the pillow beside her. He looked so beautiful like this, his bare chest rising and falling peacefully with each breath. Crutchie smiled as he tightened his arm around her, drawing her in closer to him.

“G'morn’”, he breathed sleepily, kissing her softly. She chuckled and curled in closer to him, tucking her head in the hollow of his neck. His hand cradled the back of her head, sliding downwards to trace relaxing circles between her sharp shoulder blades.

“How did you sleep?” she whispered, kissing his throat. She felt his chest convulse in silent laughter. “On me back, silly!“, he joked. "Honestly though, better than I have in weeks. Being out here, with you…”, he gestured to the window, before wrapping his arm around her again. “You, this place, and some decent paints…. This is what I want the rest my life to be like. You and me, no matter what”.Crutchie felt a knot start to tie itself around her stomach. What if he knew? “No matter what?” she asked, her voice suddenly sounding strangled. She closed her eyes, unsure of what she wanted to see - Jack’s face when he found out, or the all too familiar darkness inside her eyes, where she hid from her fears. Jack shifted to look at Crutchie, the sudden fear in her voice banishing the fogginess in his brain. “Is everything okay?” he asked, his brow furrowing with concern. Crutchie’s hazel eyes were closed - she looked almost in pain. “What’s wrong? Is it your leg again?” he whispered, planting a protective kiss on her forehead. She merely shook her head, her face collapsing. “Hey, hey, Charlotte?”, he crooned, not quite knowing what to do. She flinched at the sound of her name, curling slightly away from him. A muffled sob escaped her lips. Her shoulders shook slightly. Jack felt a pang in his chest. What had he done? “Do you want to go home, back to Manhattan? You’re homesick? I can take you back straight away, if that’s what you want!”, he exclaimed, rolling out of bed to find his keys. That had to be it! Crutchie grabbed his hand before he could slip away from her, suddenly desperate for his touch. “ No, Jack, it’s not that. I love it here, really- it’s - it’s something bigger than that”, she stammered, her face streaked with tears. Jack froze. “Are you…” he gulped, sitting gently on the bed. “Charlotte, are you… Heck, are we pregnant”, he asked quietly, entwining his fingers around hers. Crutchie muttered something at the duvet, too low for him to catch. “…. Than that”. Jack leaned closer, tilting his ear towards her. “It’s worse than that”, Crutchie whispered, drawing her knees up to her chest. “Hey, hey, it’s okay”, murmured Jack, pulling her into his lap. “C'mon, you can tell me, whatever it is. Promise.”Crutchie leaned her miserably against his chest, her fingers fiddling distractedly with the corner of the pillowcase. “I don’t know if you’ll still want me after this”, she gulped, clenching her jaw. It was now or never. Jack rubbed her arms up and down, pause to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear. “Of course I’d still want you, sugar. Why wouldn’t I? ”, he said quietly, his heart racing. What is she go to tell me……? “Look, Jack- I’m a boy!” Crutchie cried, before clapping his hands over his mouth. ShitshitshitshitshitIbethehatesmenowshitshitshit… He hadn’t meant for it to come out like that, so suddenly. He looked up at Jack’s stunned face, at his wide eyes and open mouth. Crutchie climbed dejectedly out of Jack’s lap and limped towards the door. Jack watched as Crutchie stopped at the bedroom door, preparing for the steep step down into the kitchen. This was why Crutchie had seemed so tense in the past few months… “Crutchie, wait!” he gasped, rushing to help him. Crutchie turned and flinched involuntarily. I deserve this, he thought, clenching his muscles. Jack stopped abruptly, shocked. Did Crutchie think he was going to try… Hurt him? “Whoa, whoa! Crutchie ”, he continued softly. “Easy, I’m not going to hurt you. It’s just- not the kind of thing you expect to hear from your girlfriend- boyfriend! ”, he corrected himself quickly. “Listen, I can’t imagine how you must feel right now. I can’t imagine how scared you are, how brave you must have to be every day, what it must have taken for you to tell me that. But I do know this: I know that whatever you tell me, whatever, whoever you are, I will support you. I’ll have your back just like you have mine. I love you Crutchie - no matter what”. Crutchie looked up at him and smiled weakly. “You do?”Jack sighed, folding his boyfriend into a great bear hug. “You mean the world to me, Crutchie”, he sighed. “I’d do any for you”. Crutchie looked up at him through watery eyes. “Anything?” Jack caressed his face tenderly with his hand. “Anything”, he swore. “Would you cut my hair for me? I want it to be you”, Crutchie asked anxiously. It was important to him that Jack did it - it meant something more. Jack just smiled and scooped up Crutchie in his arms. He edged the door open with his hip, before making his way over to the stool on the porch where all the Kelly menfolk had their hair cut, for as long as any of the Kellys could remember.

Hi!! I'm sorry for my ignorance on the topic. But has Bioware done something wrong?

no need to apologize, nonny! short answer is, kinda yeah, but i want to explain it a little.

i’m gonna throw this under a cut for length and for some fandom discoursey stuff. there’ll be a tl;dr at the bottom of it.

let me preface this by saying two things: 1) i love mass effect. i will always love mass effect. i plan to love mass effect andromeda as much as i love the original trilogy. this is true regardless - maybe even in spite - of what has happened. 2) i don’t want to get in any fights. i don’t want any hostility in my inbox about this.

most of the controversy is in regards to a leak that came out recently that describes a scene where liam kind of unceremoniously turns down broryder and says in no uncertain terms that he’s not into dudes. now, i would ordinarily say that this isn’t necessarily the biggest deal, but there are a few pieces of context that make it kind of icky.

first of all, this kinda shuts down fans who were hoping for lgbt+ human squadmates. liam’s our only human male on the squad. cora’s romance with broryder is already confirmed, and although that doesn’t rule out the possibility of her being bi, it means we definitely don’t have any exclusively gay representation, and no mlm period, among the humans in our squad (”squad” here meaning the group of people you can select to accompany you on missions, consisting of liam, cora, peebee, vetra, drack, and jaal). now, maybe other romanceable characters outside the squad will 1) be gay and 2) have the same amount of importance to the story and fleshed-out writing that their squad counterparts have (something i, personally, am kinda hoping for), but bioware’s track record for that sort of thing is… not great.

second, and speaking of track records, i’m gonna talk for a second about the history of the mass effect series and how it’s dealt with lgbt+ stuff in the past. the short version of this is “not too well”. we’re gonna leave aside the issues with the way the asari are handled (which is a whole other thing that i kinda don’t want to get into) and just focus on the numbers by themselves. throughout the whole series, there are two full romance options each for wlw and mlm (for the purposes of this discussion i’m gonna leave out the romances with kelly chambers and diana allers because although they’re both bi, their “romances” are very insubstantial). we know that several bi options were cut, including jack who is canonically bisexual but cannot be romanced by a female shepard. the two exclusively gay romance options (including the only human wlw romance) are steve cortez and samantha traynor, both of whom i love very dearly but they are also both fairly minor side characters that are introduced in the third game. for mlm, there are no romance options until the third game, since kaidan is femshep-locked in the first. and, oh yeah, you might have killed him off. granted, this shows a positive trend as the series progresses, but it’s still kind of discouraging to see that maybe we’re falling into some similar patterns.

third, going into how the devs are treating this whole debacle. throughout this whole marketing campaign that’s been going on, we’ve had fans practically begging the devs to release the romance options, usually being met with some variant of “you’ll just have to wait and see ;D ;D ;D“, especially regarding lgbt+ romances. which is, y’know, all fine and dandy, except that every scrap of news and every semi-reputable leak that’s come out has suggested an abundance of m/f options, and so far the only things i’ve heard about any lgbt+ stuff have been “peebee had a girlfriend once” and “gil is receptive to broryder’s flirting”. nothing quite so definitive as the images in the trailers of cora and scott kissing (which, again, doesn’t mean she’s not bi! and i don’t want to erase that possibility at all! but there’s no evidence that she is, either) or liam allegedly saying outright that he’s not into guys. fans want to be assured representation, not have the idea of it dangled in front of us like a carrot.

overall, though, i’m trying to stay optimistic. for one thing, this is an AAA studio producing a big budget mainstream game, and we all know how the representation issue goes in mainstream media. everyone needs to do better. for another, i’m holding out hope that maybe the non-squadmate characters will provide us with interesting, well-written, and fleshed-out romances, moreso than in the past, and that these romances will come in a variety of flavors and sexualities so that a wider variety of players can see representation of someone like them in the game. the leak about liam was kind of a blow, though, and the disappointment among lgbt+ fans resonates with me as well.

tl;dr: bioware is kinda not treating their lgbt+ fans as well as they could be with news about romance options in andromeda, and their track record in the mass effect series is making fans rightfully uneasy. i’m trying to keep my chin up and hope for the best.

i’m trying to keep my tone pretty informative and i hope i don’t come across as patronizing or negative or anything. i don’t want to get into a whole lot of discourse about this, as stuff like that tends to give me a lot of anxiety. anyone is welcome to come into my inbox or pms to talk about this, but please try to avoid hostility with it. i’m upset and hurt and angry too, but i am also a fragile lil bean.

#nate says words #bioware critical - #this might be considered spoilery since it talks about a recent minor leak? just tread carefully #also please lmk if you have issues with readability #i know i kinda ramble and it got a little text-heavy but i can break it down if you need me to
