#but in the moment

Any new headcanons brewing in your head after seeing Alycia at the AACTA

Not... entirely

But I've had thoughts. Bear with me.

I'm not even remotely the person to write something like this at all, but it definitely did have me thinking of a SORT OF SHOEH-esque type fic. Something involving them being closeted and in Hollywood. Getting their flowers for their talent and being in love, but having to keep it quiet their entire careers. I've seen some fics along this line here and there, but inevitably in the fic, one or both eventually come out on stage or something.

Which is great! That's a lovely and hopeful ending.

But also....

Not entirely realistic.

Or even half as heartwrenching.

"Well yeah jesus fuck, why do you want sad shit Andi, why are you always such a glutton for punishment and literary pain?"

Well I'll tell you why: cuz... shut up

Idk it just got me thinking of Clexa as two Hollywood starlets on kind of differing ends of the spectrum of Hollywood that in the public eye are generally never really thought about together.

Lexa tends to do more gritty work, a lot more indie films. Dark threaded moody pieces and emotional roles, not generally thought of as box office fodder, but pretty much always a contender at awards season. Sleeper hits, you get me. Things like that. She definitely has a well known name, but she's selective in her work and that gains her a lot of respect with fans, even if they have to sometimes wait 2-3 years between projects. Because whatever she signs on for, it's pretty much always really fucking good. Whereas Clarke is more of a mainstream girly. She does a decently broad spectrum of films, but they're by and large always ones with bigger budgets, bigger release dates, more screens. It's not that they're not quality pictures, it's just that Clarke likes to work a broad range of things. One year she's in a comedy, the next a period piece, the next action. There's no real labeling her career.

And most importantly, they're both very, very straight.

At least, their personas are.

Alexandria is a smoky eyed femme fatale who leaves all the men eating out of the palm of her hand. Very "Look but don't touch" attitude that adds to her allure, to her mystery, despite her always being attached to leading man's arm. Miss Griffin is the picture of buxom Hollywood glam that every guy has on the List. Known for leaving a string of broken hearted men in her wake with little more than a cheek kiss-stained in signature red lipstick

Lexa and Clarke though?

Lexa and Clarke are two friends who have been deeply in love and committed to each other for the better part of 5 years.

They love each other in secret because that's what they feel like they have to do. They have two seperate houses with two separate addresses, and only one bed they actually sleep in.

It only really burns on the big nights, which I think would be an interesting oneshot. Just a glimpse into their life and what it feels like in that moment. The night when all their work and their sacrifices are being honored. Because even though, yes, they do play the part of friends and manage to sit near each other, it's not the same. It's not the same when they can't get ready together or even show up in the same car. When they have to remind themselves not to lean into each other too often, or even reach for the others hand to calm their nerves.

When one wins, they walk up alone without a hug or kiss from the only person who actually matters. They thank their families and their friends and their management that they can barely stand half the time, and remind themselves to smile like it's the happiest moment of their life even though at least half it all feels like a lie. Because yeah, they get lonely in the months when projects and shooting schedules pull them to opposite sides of the globe... but somehow those months never feel quite as lonely as being in a room filled with people who act like they adore you, while the love of your life sits quietly with her own "date" half an aisle away

#anon #*loads shotgun* i will block any Elycia shippers or G*ylors on sight I'm sorry but I will ಠ_ಠ this ISN'T about that #that pic of Alycia looking at the stage just made me think of like a oneshot #of one of then having to watch the other win their award and being so proud and so in love #and so utterly unable to do anything with all those feelings in the moment #just the swells of conflicting emotion as they come as they watch their lover and friend and confidant being celebrated #and knowing this is what they both chose and both want #and knowing they'll have their chance when they get home #but in the moment #everything just feeling like a lump in the back of the throat #starlet au

hey! I'm so sorry you've had your writing stolen - it sucks a lot and I can empathize with how upsetting it can be (I've had art stolen/reuploaded to be sold and it was such a gross feeling... but such is the reality of posting our work online I guess rip)

people who plagiarize truly do suck balls, especially serial stealers like in your case (actually mindblowing btw like what is even the point then?? maybe don't "write" fic if you don't like writing it??????)

...but there are also a lot of OTHER people who will support you and the things you make, so hold on to that!

-artist anon <3

nooooo I'm so sorry that happened... 🥹 it's one thing to steal but to try and profit off of it is so damn nasty. but it's true that when you post things online it's just bound to happen

I really don't get it, like copying word for word just changing the character it's about has to be so tedious, I don't understand what someone gets out of doing it or posting it? 😭 writing isn't that hard.... you can do it....... I believe in you............

#I appreciate the support and it has made me feel a lot better about the situation.... #honestly it's just humorous to see someone steal the smaller things #that shit just makes me laugh #but the big fic they stole 😔 #I'll get over it for sure lol #but in the moment #I was like... all shaky and sweaty seeing they stole everything from me... #I was literally sweating from anxiety so much it was kind of gross really 😭😭😭😭😭😭 #although I think soon I'll be able to just laugh that off too and feel proud for the people who thought it was good lmao #ask mags

sometimes I think I’m schizophrenic

#I don’t like it #and I don’t like self diagnosing #and there is so much stigma #and I don’t want to tell anyone in my life #but #there can only be so many hallucinations #and thoughts #and speaking to higher powers #and coincidences #and not understanding what I’m thinking #and talking to my concience #and getting stuck in my own head #and believe me #i know it’s not true #but in the moment #i see the numbers and it all makes sense to me #and I’m scared #because I’m not in therapy anymore #and it’s all just getting worse #and I don’t want to loose myself

having my driving lesson cancelled unexpectedly for reasons outside of my own control is like getting a triple shot of opium

#personal #i know i'll pay for it when I face the anxiety of another lesson the week after #but in the moment #oh boy #I was supposed to do a mock test today so getting it cancelled was an insane relief....why am i so afraid of driving homies

when I was a little kid at some point I got upset with my parents because I didn't have a crucifix in my bedroom and they did- I was like why do YOU get to be safe from vampires??? you're okay with me getting my blood sucked???? so we took a little trip to the catholic store but the one closest to us was run by a group of nuns that had been moved here from romania. I got a little baby pink cross and this sweet old nun was like 'aww, is this a baptism gift?' and I was like no. I need to be protected from vampires. and she immediately got SO serious and was like 'this is the best one we've got, you'll definitely be safe' and since she was literally from vampire land I was convinced she was like, van helsing. like the whole time my parents had been laughing about how cute my fear was but she literally Knew dracula and was taking my concerns seriously I held this over my parents for so long lmfao

Knowledge Revenge.

#dungeon meshi #chilchuk tims #senshi #Somewhat of an unofficial sequel to the Dragon Comic. I promise I have more versatility in my jokes. I just had to take this opportunity. #Senshi is pretty much a recluse. I think he would know a few of these 'gottems' but not all. #Chilchuck would know gottems that are nearly lost to time. The deep cuts. The ones that you fall for because they are that obscure. #I would also like to take a moment to confess that after the last comic in which I posed a gottem - #I fell victim to a Mind Goblin Attack. I was thoroughly got. I will be on higher alert this time. #So NOBODY be funny in the tags. I am gullible and I like to share things with my friends. Who are *ruthless*. #I have a mild resistance to Vicious Mockery at this point but I can only take so much. #Happy Thistle Thursday Everyone! See you next week!
