First Day on Set🌊🔱

Walker Scobell X Reader | Series | You Belong With Me🔱 Part 1

A/n: Sorry, I didn't re-read the story, so there might be spelling errors.

Y/n's bio: The reader is just a few weeks younger than Walker. She got her start on Good Luck Charlie as Charlie. But Taylor Swift discovered her musically. She has released three record-breaking albums so far. Once Taylor took her under her wing, things were never the same. Not that you didn't like it. You loved it!! But sometimes the paparazzi can be annoying. Especially when your best friends are huge stars.

When she gets the part of Annabeth in Percy Jackson, she becomes best friends with the cast. Especially her co-star, Walker Scobell. But will they become more than just friends?

The alarm clock goes off and you look over to see it is 7 am.

You groan as you turn it off

"Come on y/n! We are going to be late!"

You hop out of bed as your remembered what day it was. Today was the first day of filming Percy Jackson! You have loved Percy Jackson since you were very little and you were so excited to play Annabeth! You hop out of bed and rush to get dressed.

This is just the first thing I found on pinterest

(You can change it if you'd like)

By the time you are ready it is 7:35. You run out to the car and jumped in. Then you saw a text from the group. You have gotten very close to all of them in the last few months. Especially Walker.

Camp Halfblood GC

Walker🔱: Y/n! You were supposed

to be here 20 minutes ago! Are

you still asleep?🙄🙄🙄

Aryan🐐: Oh no! The monsters got y/n!!😱😱

Y/n: I just fought one off!! I'm on my way now!!

Walker🔱: On second thought

maybe don't come here. 😬

Y/n: She says she'll let me live

if I tell her where Walker is hiding.

Walker🔱: What?!

Y/n: I'm on my way!! She let me go😁

Walker🔱: Oh no! You are the one

who is gonna betray me 😱😱

Y/n:🤣🤣🤣

Y/n: I'm pulling in now.

Walker🔱: Cool. You want some Chick fil a? I'm ordering delivery.

Y/n: YES PLEASE!!!😁

××FLASHBACK××

You and the cast of Percy Jackson were going to a Party to meet one another.

You get out of the car and are half way there when you realize you forgot your phone.

"Ugh! Mom I forgot my phone ill run back and meet you there."

She nidded

You were running back when you ran into someone.

"Hey!" He said jokingly as you both fell to the ground.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't look where I was going!" You apologized

"Don't worry about it!" He said with a chuckle as he stood up and offered you his hand. You took it and he pulled you up

"Hey aren't you that girl from Avengers?" He asked

"Please to make your acquaintance." You said in a funny voice bowing

You both laugehd

"Y/c/n is such a badass!"

You talked for a little but then parted way so you could get your phone.

××END FLASHBACK××

When you got to set you parking in your marked spot and went to your trailer to meet your hair and makeup artists(Gina and Natalie). They were very nice and sat you down as you got to know each other.

Walker walked in with Chick Fil A and sat next to you.

"I got you a cookies and cream milkshake too" He said sitting down I the seat next to you.

"Thank you!! Your makeup is done already?" You asked while grabbing the milkshake he was taking a sip out of.

"IT WAS DONE AN HOUR AGO! YOU WERE LATE!" He screamed and you both laughed.

You take a picture of him and the food and post it.

The first scene you did was the bathroom scene.

You were talking with Dior when the director yelled action. You got yourself into character.

"I can explain" Walker said nervously

"No you can't" I replied

"Okay. Wait...I know you dont I?"

"No you don't" I replied channeling my inner Annabeth

"You were there that night in the infirmary"

"Yes. I'm Annabeth"

"Are you stalking me Annabeth?"

"Yes" I say like it's totally normal

"Okay" He said caught off guard

"Well, I've been waiting to see if something like this would happen so I know if you can help me"

"Help you do what?"

"Win capture the flag of course"

The director yelled cut and Walker walked up to you dripping wet

"Hey great job! You were born to play Annabeth!" He said as you backed away from him

"What's wrong?" He asked a little confused

"I don't want to get wet" you said continuing to set back

"Well in that case..." He said with a mischievous grin in his face

He then lunged forward and had you in and bear hug and was spining you.

The hug you didn't mind but now you were covered in water too.

"WALKER! PUT ME DOWN!" You demand

"Fine" He said putting you down

"That's what you get for eating my nuggets" He said with a fake stern face

"I hate you! You said looking at how soaked you were.

"You love me" He said with a smile

"I do" you sighed

A/N: This is my first attempt at fanfiction!! I hope you like it!

alright, some misogynist and ableist goons on this site keep bothering me about my jkr post because they cannot fathom the fact that calling out bias doesn't necessarily equal endorsing. so i'm going to be super nice about it and put all the facts here for the fact-enjoyers.

let's go over the claims made against jkr by testerical twitterheads, because everything to do with trans politics regarding jkr is just extremist white liberals reaching.

Claim: JK Rowling is friends with Matt Walsh. False!

Claim: JK Rowling is friends with Kellie-Jay Keen. Ambiguous! (She has agreed with Kellie-Jay Keen on several issues and advocated for her based on false allegations about nazism concerning Kellie-Jay Keen. Men-rights activists made shit up about her endorsing nazi salutes at her women's campaign. also, JK Rowling has agreed with many people whose politics she does not wholly endorse, like matt walsh. agreeing with someone on an opinion or fact, does not mean you agree with their politics.)

Claim: JK Rowling denies the Holocaust. False! (For proof, see this thread. JK Rowling does not DENY that the Holocaust happened, but that trans people were specifically targeted by the Nazis. Some argue that this makes her a Holocaust denier based on some German article, but I find the term muddies the water. It can be an offense, a grievous one, to deny the Nazis did something when they did, but calling JKR a Holocaust denier makes people think she doesn't believe the Holocaust happened when she absolutely does.

Additionally, the topic as to whether trans people were explicitly targeted by Nazis has had a fair share of scholarly debate. They may have faced some measure of harassment, but being specifically targeted is also a reach considering how little historical evidence we have of transvestites being outrightly persecuted, at least, to anywhere near the same degree homosexual, black or Jewish people were. Cross-dressing certificates were legal in Nazi Germany, for example, and I have found no record of a transvestite suffering things like forced sterilization. This article briefly mentions a German author who thought that the Nazis would finally take care of "the transvestite problem" because now they could be sent to concentration camps and castrated there, but there is still no record of any transvestite having undergone such a thing. Furthermore, of the examples of transvestites that were taken to concentration camps, both of them were homosexual, so it would be more accurate to say they were targeted for being homosexual, especially when you look at why they were arrested. On the other hand, some transvestites ended up in concentration camps, but it was likely due to the fact that they were Jewish rather than trans.

It is also very significant that in the German Republic, transvestites had permits while homosexuals did not!

JKR might be denying that they burned trans books. Unfortunately for her, she is wrong. Transvestite research WAS targeted by the Nazis. Again, not much is known about transvestites during this time and I have found no solid numbers. It most definitely didn't happen on the same scale as what gay, lesbian, Jewish or Roma people were suffering through--and why would it, transvestites weren't a large population, also i have found no record of transvestites being forced to wear pink triangles, like homosexual men were--, though gay men and transvestites seemed to get more leniency if they were "Aryan." )

Claim: JK Rowling directly funds government suppression. (Which government? Source? I'll make an assumption and guess that you're referring to her 1 million pound donation to the Better Together anti-Scottish independence campaign? Yes, she has. But she respects the opinions of those who disagree with her on the subject. She's also donated to the Labour Party, which is more centre-left politically.)

Claim: JK Rowling has financially supported groups that repress Scotland's right to independence. True! (She also voted "No!" on Scottish independence).

Claim: JK Rowling is gunning to be a Neo-Nazi. False! (She has not expressed any explicit Nazi views! Please tap the source to see what Nazi views actually are! JK Rowling has been explicitly leftist in her politics and anti-racist.)

Claim: JK Rowling is a fascist. False! (She does not identify as fascist and does not have any explicit fascist views. Unlike the people burning and trying to ban her books, which contain very little of her politics.)

i don't worship JKR, i don't even agree with a good chunk of her politics. especially when it comes to her sympathy for israel. she's a millionaire white woman, and i am a born and raised african middle-class person. we won't have many politics in common. but unlike you lot, i don't need to be misogynistic or ableist in order to disagree with a woman. resorting to misogyny, ableism, racism or homophobia just because you hate someone is still misogyny, ableism, racism and homophobia. i wouldn't call a transperson the "t-word" even though i don't profess their gender faith. because i recognize that using the "t-word" on a trans-identified person that's done or said disgusting things like, idk, andrea long chu or hunter schaffer (are these your leaders? seriously?), saying that word will still hurt trans-identified people who didn't do or say those horrible things unnecessarily.

see what i did there? i read things up for myself, added sources from people i disagreed with politically, discussed the valid history of people who i disagree with without resorting to dehumanizing language, and called out the celebrity you lot think are "my hero" without being a hypocrite!

class dismissed.

now fuck off you rancid misogynists and go back to snivelling about how righteous you are to your echo chamber.

also, radblr girlies feel free to reblog or link this for all the anti-jkr posts that make any of these claims or keep trying to bait you with this braindead discourse to save yourselves the effort. love you and muah! :)

#radblr #trans #trans rights #jkr #anti jkr #twitter #harry potter #also #we need to center roma people in holocaust discourse again #they are woefully neglected despite being the second biggest target of the nazi regime #so many roma people were massacred by the nazis #nazism #yes this post is recycled because i cannot spare these goons anymore effort #and i cannot reblog the posts that i initally commented on either #but radblr can reblog and cycle this instead #roma #anti-semitism

Explaining pjo lore to my mother is so fun. She's currently somewhere between interested in and perplexed by "guy who murders stuffed animals" and "the little skeleton kid". Also I told her Aryan wanted to have a say yes to the dress bts thing for grover and her exact words were "Well, give the kid what he wants"

#percy jackon and the olympians #pjo #funny thing is I also barely know anything about octavian and nico so like. Girl idk either we're in this together

TM Tragedy, Season 2, Chapter 2

Word Count: 1.9k

Warnings: MAJOR TW: Rape, women being abused sexually and physically, threats, aggression, acts of violence. Angst. Being drugged, abduction.

Tig’s POV

It was well into the party when a Black Audi came up into the lot. I looked at Clay, "what's this? Were we expecting someone other than Bobby?"

He shook his head and turned towards the people getting out of the car. He stood firmly in front of the well-dressed people, shaking his head, "sorry, folks…the garage is closed."

"We're not here for uh, car repairs," a man said. He was dressed in a nice suit, "I understand you are a Comacho fan."

I looked the jackass up and down. He was trying to hand Clay a box of cigars, but he wasn't taking em, "Who the hell are you?"

"We're just dropping by to give you a little friendly advice," a second guy said. He was dressed in a simple white button up. Had short cropped hair.

"And what advice would that be?"

"We feel it would be best for all concerned," the leader began. He paused, almost unsure of the words about to come out of his mouth, "if you stopped dealing arms to the one niners and the Mayans."

A few of us started laughing.

"I don't know what you're talking about," Clay laughed shaking his head, "we're just mechanics and Harley lovers. Don’t know nothing about any guns.”

"That's one of Darby's guys back there," I said, nodding my head to Clay. His smile faded ever so slightly, and I looked to Gemma, “get behind me…”

The leader seemed to hear it, "Yes, Mr. Darby is one of our supporters."

"Hmmm," Clay said, looking at the guys, "Expensive car. Hell of a suit. All your teeth. Must be the top of the Aryan food chain, huh?"

"What you do for a living is between you and your maker," the guy began, "I'm not here to adjust your moral compass. This is just a reality check. You're a criminal and you're done selling guns to color."

I narrowed my eyes at these jackasses and pulled my gun from my jeans, being sure they heard me cock it.

"What, are you going to shoot me Mr. Traeger?" he asked, "with all these witnesses."

"Look, uh," Clay began, a chuckle leaving his throat, "I don't know what Darby told you and uh, I don't know what your angle is but let me be real clear. Nobody threatens SAMCRO. And nobody tells us what we can or can't do. Black...brown, or white. So why don't you just climb back into your little German clown car and drive back to Nazi town. Because the next time you piss all over my shoes. I will kill you-and I don't give a shit about how many witnesses there are."

"My shop opens in a few weeks," he said, putting the box of cigars at Clay's feet. He put his hands up momentarily, then he handed him a card, "enjoy the cigars, Mr. Morrow."

I watched as the jackass went back to his car, then the idiot in the button up turned around, bumping into Mandy. He apologized but both she and Gemma seem disgusted by him. Clay handed Juice the card and he took Mandy's hand, leading her inside. Gemma went over to Clay.

I walked past Gemma with Happy and we followed those Nazi idiots until they started backing their car out of the garage."

Eddie's POV

"I'm really surprised you said yes," I said as I handed her the drink, "I didn't really think you'd say yes to me."

"Why wouldn't i?"

"I don't know, did your dad and brother tell you anything about this morning?"

She shook her head, "I uh...I try not to be involved with club business. They just asked me how I would feel going out tonight with you."

"That's probably smart," I laughed. She faked a smile and took a large gulp of the wine. I frowned and bit my lip. She had all the tell-tale signs of not being into me, but I knew she was doing it for her family, “the wine…do you like it?”

"Wow," she said, putting it down quickly as she made a face, "that's sweet."

"Yeah," I laughed, "I uh, didn't know what to get. I-I’m sorry.”

"I'm a hard liquor kind of girl," she replied. I put my glass down and sat next to her on the couch, "so tell me about you?"

"Well, what would you like to know?"

"I don't know," she said with a shrug, "tell me anything."

"Anything?"

She nodded. I smiled, "okay, well I work with my dad. We sell guns to your dad...and well we're also supplying another group of gentlemen too. They said they saw you guys earlier tonight."

"What?" she asked.

She was having trouble focusing on me. She looked a little dizzy," are you okay?"

"Did you say you sell guns to more people, and they saw me?"

"Funny you should reiterate that," I said, "but yes. And you see they had a very lucrative offer. I'm not supposed to tell you any of this. Just know it's nothing personal. All business. They just pay better. I do find you attractive, but after they told me you were with the darker one from this morning you wouldn't make a suitable girl. I’m sorry…you’re very sweet though."

"You're speaking too fast," she said, holding her head, "everything you're saying is blurring together."

"Aww don't worry about it," I said, "you'll be passed out in a few moments. But before you do, just remember this is because your dad is choosing to sell the guns, and he was, or is, selling them to the people of color. He shouldn't be doing that."

"Eddie what did you do?" she asked.

Before I could give her any sort of response she slumped over on the couch and Zobelle's daughter came out of the next room, "See! That wasn't too bad, was it?"

"What are you going to do with her?"

She shrugged, "I don't question what my father asks me to do. All I know is that I'm to take her to a warehouse. Weston and a few guys will take it from there.

"They aren't going to kill her, are they?"

"No," she said, shaking her head, "probably just scare her a little bit. We want her alive. Her and her mom."

"So, are we still on for later tonight?" I asked.

She smiled, "of course. Now help me load her into the back of the van."

Gemma’s POV

"Oh god," the woman cried, running from her van, "please. My baby. He swallowed something. He's choking. Please help me."

I dropped my gun back in my purse.

Mistake one.

I turned my back to her.

Mistake two.

I pulled a blanket away to see a god damned doll. I didn't turn immediately, because where I'd thrown the blanket I could see Mandy passed out on the backseat. My breath caught in my throat as I reached out for her, “baby?”

But she didn’t move. When I turned to question everything, it was lights out.

"M-mandy?" I croaked. My throat felt like it was on fire. What was once blurry slowly came into focus. How long had I been out?

My throat felt dry. Too dry. I tried to get some sort of saliva built up so my voice worked well enough to call for help.

That's when I felt the digging feeling in my wrists. My shoulders ached.

I went to move my hands but realized that I couldn't. When I looked up, I saw why. I was cuffed to the damn fence. Down the way I could see the outlines of three people. I couldn't see their faces. The god damned cowards had masks on.

My heart raced as I tried to focus on everything that was around me.

"What do you want?" I asked worriedly, "Where was my daughter. That bitch had her in the van. Do you know who I am? You know what I CAN DO TO YOU? Take off the mask you goddamn filthy piece of shit."

They circled around me, and I kicked the one I knew I could reach. Got him in the groin and he keeled over. He was still close enough so I kicked him in the face.

Another bastard jumped me and began to punch me then ripped open my shirt.

I tried screaming. They began pulling at my pants, and I fought harder. The second guy got up and two of them began to wrestle away my jeans. I was left naked from the bottom down as they flipped me over.

I felt the sick assholes breathing on my neck, "we weren't gonna go this far, but the boss said if you gave us any trouble we could do you too."

I tried to scream against him but he covered my mouth, "LIGHTS!"

A spotlight came on and I could see through the gate. Mandy was bound and blindfolded. She was naked. I could see her mascara had run down her cheeks and chin.

"I'll do whatever you want," I groaned, feeling sick to my stomach, "let her go. Let her go."

"Can't let you off that easy, ma'am." One of them said apologetically.

I watched as one of the men went over to her and pulled the blindfold from her face. She began screaming and tried to fight against the guy but it was no use. She was handcuffed to the fence too. She began to scream and cry. Begging me to come save her. Begging for her dad to save her. She was begging for Juice to save her.

They got sick of hearing her and put a gag in her.

But that didn't stop the crying.

That didn't stop the light going out in her eyes as I watched her stop fighting. As I watched my baby go numb once the first guy released inside of her and the second took his chance.

That's when they flipped me around and it was my turn.

"It'll all be over soon ma'am."

And he entered me.

Eventually I had passed out...just after their second go around, when they told me to tell Clay to stop selling guns to anyone of color.

When I woke up, they were gone.

I was covered in a blanket. The cage that they had locked Mandy in to separate us was unlocked and she was crying. Rocking herself back and forth.

Her clothes were shredded, but she had found a tarp to cover herself.

She had cuts and bruises all over her body.

"Mandy?"

No answer.

I tried to get up and move myself to her, but my lower half hurt too much.

"Baby please," I cried out to her, "Mandy I can't move."

Her sobs got quieter until she pushed herself away from the chain link fence. She was still turned away from me, "don't look at me."

"I’m so sorry baby," I cried, "this is all my fault. Please look at me, Mandy."

She sniffed, "They said it was dad's fault. The-they said…”

"Baby," I said, trying to reach out to her. She turned to me. One of her eyes was nearly swollen shut and her lip was split. She had dried blood on her hands and around her mouth. It felt like someone had punched me in the gut, "Oh jesus."

She whispered, sniffling again, "told me that maybe if I wasn't too busy fucking the dark boy in the club a real white man can show me a good time. I bit one of their arms...guess they didn't like that."

"Come here baby."

"I'm so exhausted," she cried, "I just want to sleep mom."

I leaned up against the fence and pulled myself forward a bit. She crawled over to me until we finally met by the door of the cage. I pulled off my undershirt and handed it to her then wrapped the blanket around us, "we'll get through this baby. I promise."

HOUSE PARTY GONE RIGHT....

RAGINI was going through a breakup phase when her roommates RAAVI and RASHI with their respective boyfriends AKSHAY and ARYAN plan a house party for Christmas in their flat because of the long weekend holidays they have. The three girls decide to call all their college and school friends whom they are still in touch with to the party. The decorations, food, drinks, music...everything gets ready in an hour before the party. Three of them get dressed and the party begins as the guests start walking in slowly with time.

RAGINI thinking it's the pizza delivery boy opens the door and finds KHUSH, her ex boyfriend with a bottle of whiskey in his hand and sipping it further hugs her as soon as he sees her and his friends who drove with him till there say,

TARUN: HI! ACTUALLY RASHI INVITED EVERYONE ON THE COLLEGE GROUP AND WE ARE IN IT TOO SO...

He walks inside after which KHUSH coming out of the hug, holding her cheeks says,

KHUSH: IT HAS BEEN TWO YEARS AND YOU STILL SMELL THE SAME. I MISSED YOU GINI!

RAGINI: HOW COME YOU ARE THIS DRUNK ALREADY KHUSH?

KHUSH: IT'S TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO STAND IN FRONT OF YOU RIGHT NOW.

He after saying that walks inside, she continued standing there and looking at him. Everyone there were having conversations with eachother as they met after ages. RAGINI was sitting with her friends and having VODKA sip by sip when suddenly music starts playing, few of them hit the dance floor to dance when KHUSH walks towards RAGINI asks for her hand to dance and both of them perform with a beautiful chemistry they had since they started dating eachother from the first year of college.

All the others there drink, dance, enjoy, eat, put 1000 Instagram stories, talk, few of them makeout as they remember their past in the rooms there, re-live the freshers party they had a few years back in college or farwell party of school and finally after a couple of hours few of them leave to their house in cabs, few fall asleep there itself, few were playing board games there, few were still drinking and few were siting and talking to eachother.

The next morning, RAGINI wakes up on KHUSH'S lap in the living area as he was still asleep on the pillows on the couch. She walks to the washroom, brushes and walks into the kitchen to make some coffee when KHUSH after some time walks to her, hugs her from behind, kisses her on her right cheek and says,

KHUSH: GOOD MORNING CUTIE!

RAGINI: WE ARE NOT DATING ANYMORE KHUSH!

He moving away, realising that, says,

KHUSH: SORRY! IT'S A HABIT TO HOLD YOU LIKE THIS WHENEVER I SEE YOU IN THE KITCHEN.

RAGINI: IT'S OKAY! I UNDERSTAND!

He sits there on the platform and as he sips the coffee she gave to him, says,

KHUSH: THIS IS WHAT I MISSED THE MOST, APART FROM YOU, ALL THESE YEARS.

Both of them give a look to eachother when he says,

KHUSH: I AM AN IDIOT RIGHT? I SHOULDN'T HAVE MADE OUR FIGHT DECIDE THE DESTINATION OF THIS RELATIONSHIP.

RAGINI: IT WAS A SITUATION BACK THEN AND IT FELT SENSELESS TO NOT LET YOU GO BECAUSE LATER IT WOULD FEEL LIKE I HAVE TRAPPED YOU INTO THIS RELATIONSHIP WHICH YOU WANTED TO END A LONG BACK.

He smiles and says,

KHUSH: IF I WOULD HAVE THIS SENSE BACK THEN, TRUST ME! I WOULD HAVE NEVER ENDED WHAT WE HAD FOR SURE.

She smiles and says,

RAGINI: LET BYGONS BE BYGONS KHUSH!

He sipping his coffee asks,

KHUSHI: YOU ARE SINGLE RIGHT?

RAGINI: YES! TOO BUSY WITH WORK AND MAINTAINING THIS HOUSE I GUESS!

KHUSH: OHH! YOU KNOW WHAT? I AM STILL IN THE SAME HOUSE WITH TARUN AND AKSHAY. THE SAME HOUSE WHERE WE....

RAGINI: MADE OUT ON THE CHRISTMAS NIGHT BACK THEN. I REMEMBER!

Both of them remembering these memories of them being together, sip their coffee respectively, when she putting the cup on the platform there, taking out a ring from her shorts's pocket, like how she asked him to be her boyfriend in the college, asks him with a same type of steel ring she gave him back then and now asks,

RAGINI: KHUSH! CAN WE GET BACK TOGETHER AGAIN?

He gets down from the platform and asks,

KHUSH: SO YOU WANT TO BE MY GIRLFRIEND AGAIN?

She nods her head when he hugs her tight and says,

KHUSH: I WAS TOO SCARED TO ASK THIS GINI! THANKS FOR SAYING YES! I LOVE YOU!

She smiles and says,

RAGINI: I LOVE YOU TOO!

Puts the ring in his finger and both of them share a long kiss together.

do you think there is any significance that alex's colour scheme is green and pink? or do you think rr went "u know what this character needs? to look like a watermelon"

((Prefacing this by saying that I'm giving RR way too much credit here, but you shouldn't take anything an author does for granted— even a serial author who often makes blunders and mistakes.))

A while ago I saw a (pretty unfair) assumption that RR made it green and pink because blue and pink would be too obvious, but that his intention was obviously to reinforce the gender binary by using two distinctly gendered colors for a character with two distinct genders. Of course, they did not phrase it so delicately. No offense to whoever made that post, but I disagree.

Although that may have had to do with it, there's other things to consider. One of them is color symbolism. And oh. OH. I ADORE symbolism— especially flower/plant symbolism (Language of the Flowers and all that jazz), seasonal symbolism (there's a reason that evermore is my second favorite Taylor Swift album), and color symbolism.

GREEN

Let's talk about green first. Green can symbolize a lot of different things, and there are a few that can be applied to Alex's character. The most obvious thing that green often represents is jealousy— hence the expression "green with envy." But envy is not really one of Alex's character traits. Feel free to argue with me if you think that Alex is significantly envious. Just because I couldn't think of substantial textual evidence for it does not mean that there isn't any.

One of the traits that Alex does have is wealth. Green is the color of American currency, and since both RR and Alex are American, it's safe to take an American lens while looking at this color. Alex's socioeconomic background effects her in a big way. I mentioned in a previous post that I think that Alex's fatal flaw is her sense of entitlement. That kind of entitlement is a quality not exclusive to but common among the upper class. However, her distance from her wealthy background enhances the sense of irony in the story, which is a VERY big thing that we NEVER talk about within the fandom.

This is kind of a little thing, but it's worth noting that when it comes to Valhalla and everything, Alex is "green"— as in new and inexperienced.

The color green also emphasizes Alex's connection with nature. This is one of the parts of Alex's character that the fandom consistently underplays, which is an absolute shame. I don't think I have to explain why the color green is associated with all things natural. Alex's association with nature provides a few key things to her character:

It makes her a more well-rounded character. Another criticism of Alex I believe is totally unfounded is that "being genderfluid is her only personality trait because it influences her philosophy on pottery, which is her only hobby." I'm probably going to make another post in, like, a few minutes about why I find that argument a little silly, but the primary problem is that pottery is not Alex's only hobby. She also loves camping, hiking, and ice wall climbing (I bet y'all forgot about that last one!)

It gives her a connection with Magnus. I mentioned in a previous post that Magnus and Alex are foils, but I neglected to bring up why that also makes for very good chemistry between them. Of course, yes, they have different goals and philosophy, which is what makes them foils in the first place. But foil relationships function best when the characters also share some traits. As it turns out, Alex and Magnus share several hobbies, and one of them is a mutual love for nature. This is a very unexplored thing in fics. Start doing it more plz.

Finally, and this one's kind of minor, but the Alex's green gives her a connection to Natalie. I know, whenever Alex and Natalie are compared, either in canon or in fandom, everybody kind goes "eww. Oedipus complex." Which is very fair and true. But they really do have a lot of similarites. The green of Alex's hair and clothes connects her to the green of Natalie's eyes. It's worth saying, too, that Alex has one amber eye— and amber is pretty close to dirty blonde, like Natalie's hair.

If I had more faith in RR, I might bring up the concept of intextuality and how Alex wearing green is an allusion to The Great Gatsby and how Alex is elusive to Magnus, just like Daisy is to Gatsby. But I don't.

PINK

To give credit to the person who wrote the post I mentioned at the beginning of this spiel, I do believe that part of the reason pink was used was to support femininity. Please keep in mind that Alex dresses in an androgynous way— not that there is an actually "gendered" way to dress, since gender as we perceive it is mostly made up. But Alex's existence as a transfemme person (which I will maintain until my dying day) means that pink has a certain significance to her. A lot of AMAB people embrace traditionally feminine things because if they don't, they will not be accepted as genuine women or genuine nonbinary folks, since masculine dress is unisex and kind of the default. So Alex wearing pink probably had something to do with her gender, yes. But that's not necessarily a bad thing, and it's certainly not an unrealistic thing.

Speaking of Alex's gender in relation to the color pink, let's talk about pink's use as a queer rights symbol. Alex was RR's first character to be introduced as a queer character from the start. This was not an insignificant thing, especially in the year of our Lord 2016 (which, despite popular belief, seriously had an entirely different landscape of queer rep. Though it's commonplace now to include genderqueer characters, it was exceptional at the time— especially by such an accomplished and mainstream children's author.).

Let's go back in time to Nazi Germany. Some of you might know this, but for those of you don't this transition must seem jarring. I swear there's a point. In addition to Jews, Romani individuals, people with disabilities, and Poles (among others), gay men were victimized by the Nazis. If you're wondering why lesbians weren't persecuted, it's because the Nazis didn't see them as a serious political threat, or as a threat to the perpetuation of the Aryan race since they assumed gay women could be forcefully impregnated if need be. Yeah, ew. Anyway, much like the Star of David being used to mark Jewish people, gay men were forced into concentration camps and forced to wear a pink triangle. Years later, after the gay population somewhat recovered, the pink triangle was reclaimed and used as a symbol for gay men. Some people who were not gay men used it, too, but that's somewhat controversial since it wasn't their symbol to reclaim. When the first pride flag was created, it had a pink stripe at the top to signify sex (this was later dropped so flags could be more easily produced). The pink triangle (inverted) was used during the AIDs epidemic with the caption "Silence=Death."

My point is that this is a very important color to queer folks. Having one of the first genderfluid characters in kid's lit wear pink...... I mean, it makes sense.

The last and final thing that pink represents, in this context and in general, is innocence. Granted, this kind of connects to feminitity since women (especially white women) are often infantalized and seen as innocent— which is another issue. In any case, the use of pink to represent innocence in Alex's dress is ironic. Alex has been robbed of her childhood innocence, first by her abusive parents, then by her life on the streets, and then by her eventual death at age sixteen. But then she actually regains her innocence. At the beginning of the—

Hold on. I just had a revelation. I'll make a post about it soon.

At the beginning of SotD, Alex is acting a little childish. The most obvious example is him jumping on Randolph's bed to "make noise." Alex's life is stable and relatively healthy for the first time in the years, and she experiences something that a lot of queer folks experience: a re-emergence of childhood at a late stage.

I imagine you didn't expect a post this long. I either make essay responses to asks or I add on one sentence and post it. Oops. Anyway, I believe the mcga fandom can be more creative than calling Alex a watermelon. Here are some other (kinda romantic) pink-and-green alternatives:

Roses

Dragonfruit

Grapefruit

Cherry blossom trees

DISCUSSING LESSER KNOWN ROGUES

PART ONE: THE MAD HATTER

I???? Feel like we should be more concerned about him???

First off,,, he uses mind control/brainwashing tech. That’s it. There should be no need for additional explanation. But that seems incredibly violating. I hate to say this, but in a twisted way we’re lucky his shtick isn’t about causing general chaos. The potential he has to do some terrible, terrible things to people is honestly frightening. Like, legitimately terrifying.

Secondly, his obsession with Alice in Wonderland. It’s not even the movies — it’s the book. The book by Lewis Carroll is not only creepy, but kinda problematic. I understand that at the time it was written it might not have been as . . . disturbing i guess?? But the fact that the Mad Hatter is basing his whole thing off of it rubs me wrong (more than his existence bothers me already, y’know??). This leads me to my third point.

The Mad Hatter has a type. I cannot emphasize enough what this must do to someone. Putting aside the fact that his type is the Aryan race,,, not many other rogues target people for their looks consistently. Yes, Mad Hatter will target anybody near him for run-of-the-mill schemes like robbing a bank,,, but for his themed crimes?? White, blonde girls with blue eyes — typically on the younger side.

With other Rogues, everyone kinda has an equal chance at being nabbed — putting aside wrong place wrong time, and being high profile. But imagine having to live with the knowledge that hey! A literal psychopath with the ability to mind control you could go out of his way to kidnap you and you’d never know it was coming! just because of the way a person looks. It’s a disturbingly similar concept to the “with the way she was dressed, she was asking for it” argument. Which,,,, just shut.

But I also think that what the victims have to deal with after the fact is what makes the Mad Hatter so very bad. They’ve had to deal with the fact that their mind was violated, and that they were forced to do things they never consented to. They’ve had to deal with not knowing what exactly they did, and not knowing if someone would recognize them and blame them. And the poor “Alices.” I know that a lot of the girls end up dying their hair and/or wearing contacts. Because they feel like the only thing they can do to feel safe is to change how they look. The Mad Hatter has, in a way, laid claim to certain features, and declared that anyone who has them is in danger. It’s obviously nobody’s fault but the Mad Hatter that the girls got taken, but most of the victims end up blaming their natural features for their kidnapping.

Tl;dr, the Mad Hatter is just a different kind of rapist who makes his victims blame themselves for what they couldn’t — or shouldn’t have to — control, and nobody’s talking about it.
