[longeyelashedtragedy]

Just read the gossip story that Franko "accidentally" called Frank Sr while proposing and Frank Sr heard the whole thing...just another day in the lampardverse lol

#Franko...that was no accident #always trying to prove yourself #plus if this did happen Frank Sr didn't hang up LOL #into the lampardverse

So a million years ago I had a fic friend (we lost touch ages ago) who used to frequently hand write a first draft. (This was when I was but a Youth.) She liked the pace of handwriting and felt it meant she got to know her characters and back when she started writing, in the subway or something meant a notepad. Got longish so let’s cut

She had BEAUTIFUL handwriting. And she would doodle little pictures and make borders and it was was so awesome. I was insanely jealous. I used to look forward to her drafts so much. (And her finished stories as well. )

Anyway I doodled a few thoughts for Alex Isak /Anthony Gordon and

1) didn’t have my glasses on

2) wrote quickly literally in the middle of working out between sets

3) it’s very hot and humid here and my hand was sweaty. Having said all of that if you can interpret this scribble you are maybe a doctor? I’ll put a translation underneath

Picking up quick fascinations. A pile of books a YouTube algorithm that was always at least one fascination/ fixation behind.

#and you thought my spelling was bad #my spelling is terrible #I remember a Lampardverse handwritten note #it was legible!

2, 20, 23 for the character ask game

2. Favourite canon thing about this character?

The amount of things he is involved in. Literally taking side quests. Watching an open heart surgery in person? Sure, why not? The source material for him is endless. Name something and he will definitely be involved in one way or another, lmao.

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

I treat screentime as known irl interactions here.

So, realistically, "ideal best friends" for Sheva seem to be people who treat him like a little brother, or people who low-key worship the ground he stands on. Preferably both, like Zvonimir Boban... And Paolo. I know you're gonna hate me for it, but between knowing all his goals by heart and getting worked up when others are compared to him because "there is no other Sheva", Paolo DOES. But, I think Sheva would be better off with a best friend that grounds him a little bit and doesn't indulge in his bullshit. Perhaps Gattuso is the best choice for that.

And there's also Frank Lampard. They would make each other worse and I'm here for it. Two little guys that are just a bit fucked up. He does interact with cousin Jamie quite a lot, and with Frank's boyfriend John Terry sometimes too, so this friendship is entirely possible.

23. Favourite picture of this character?

Forever this one:

#for sheva and lampard there's also that aspect of sheva obnoxiously flirting with jt #trying to steal his boyfriend #or boyfriends if you're a lampardverse fiend 🤭 #poor frankie really can't have anyone in peace #so maybe they wouldn't be really best friends lol #so many options #all lead to making these dudes worse #ask

not lampardverse related--ignore--there are just fewer bad faith ppl lurking here

February Sestina, part 2

For a better man than the last.

#well. i mean there's one correlation that i noted on twitter lol #it's always that #i did indeed start writing this in my car in a walgreen's parking lot #the birds were making such hollow beautiful noises #rising up in a huge cloud. where were they going?

“It was really embarrassing there, at the table, during lunch – “

Abramovich raised his eyebrows. “What do you mean?”

“Just – “ Frank’s face seemed rounder when serious, and something about his expression and eyes being hardened really made him look like his Dad. “The whole thing. He always says these things – thinks it will get to me.”

Roman offered him his most sincere and well-meant smile, along with one of the glasses of wine. “I didn’t notice.”

Frank sighed, taking the glass from him. For a moment, he looked done with his tirade against his own dad but then took another breath. “You know,” he said, lowering the glass to make sure Abramovich wouldn’t toast before he got something else off his chest. “I thought he’d be prouder of me here. I invited him because I thought he’d look at this all and say, Well done, Son. I worked hard to get here, you know?”

Roman smiled, nodding, although he could feel the well-meant underlying softness disappear from his own face. He made sure to pull the corner of his lips up again, so Frank wouldn’t notice anything, but he could physically feel the change of his view of the young Lampard.

He couldn’t spitefully snap back a You worked hard? question. Couldn’t laugh in his face, tell him to stop being so self-obsessed and start seeing beyond his bubble.  

Adrian Mutu must have worked hard to get to London from fucking Călinești, a countryside in the middle of nowhere; and yet he never uttered a word about it. Sometimes, Abramovich missed his attitude. It stood out significantly now, compared with Frank, who acted like the world owed him an apology for a couple of idiots behind the West Ham dugout who would shout abuse at his Dad and Uncle, and, more importantly, him, when he was sitting on the subs bench. Abramovich understood that much from the talks he had with Frank in the first few weeks. It was good, Frank had a point to prove, but it was only now that Abramovich understood the point was not only against nameless Hammers fans, but also against his own Dad.

#myfics #basically Daddy A thinks Shut up Franko you tory fuck. #but of course he can't say it #lampardverse

Tortured chubby little Franko.

#such a good boy. such a little freckly boy. #this era of him...in ayia napa.... #lampardverse #frank lampard

[protect-daniel-james]

have you seen this? i feel like you should see it again anyway!

Mmmmmmhhhh, that's some proper content, thank you for bringing it to my attention!

@longeyelashedtragedy not surprised, not surprised at all with Frankie's willingness to just open his mouth....

#lamperry #lampardverse

He's enjoying his time out of the game, enjoying the family, the home life ha ha ha no but seriously someone give him a job.

Just Mr. Redknapp having a bit of... oral fixation throughout his career, if you get my drift.

#lampardverse #i know who would appreciate a bit of oral fixation from him nudge nudge #jamie. jamie. pretty boy jamie.

[protect-daniel-james]

When pretty boy Jamie came to play against his dad's West Ham in 1996/97.

#why does he always look completely off his mind in the old videos haha #jamie. jamie. pretty boy jamie. #lampardverse

(Food)moodbars for some ships

(because I often associate the ships with certain "domestic" aspects, even if I never write about those).

Ange x Poch

a feast for the senses

lots of different textures that can be enjoyed through vision, taste, smell, and touch

lots of liquids and "runny" foods or dips that can be ... dripped and licked easily, or used as a dip. yoghurt, honey, olive oil, grease from the barbecue, beshamel sauce... Surely I don't have to explain how these can be used, do I?

lots of cooking happening at home at all times

Ange has an apron he wears with nothing underneath

they're both actually great cooks, and use food as a love language, comfort(ing) thing/sexual foreplay

Eddie x Jason

no time to cook

no time to eat "properly"

lots of takeouts, sandwiches, gas station foods

occasionally dinner in a local pub, but Eddie doesn't like crowds so they just stay at home and order Chinese

not exactly peak health™ but they often go without lunch or with a very light lunch since they're keeping themselves busy during the day, so they deserve a hearty/fried/greasy meal in the evening

breakfast consists of black coffee because neither of them can be bothered. besides, they go straight to the gym at the training ground, and then they just forget about breakfast and go on about their day

(Eddie keeps some treats for JT in his office desk though)

Graham x Thomas

very autumn-like?

usually very simple, often cold (sandwiches, bread, cheese) dinners, but made from super fancy and really high-quality ingredients

when the time allows (and especially in winter), they have a proper roast dinner or something similar from the Danish cuisine

when they go on long hikes, they would have the proper British fry-up for breakfast, and then stop in a random countryside pub for lunch/dinner

they just love to sit around in the evening with fancy craft beer and chill, watch a TV series, or read

Franko x Jamie

do I have to say anything? (I'd rather not)

absolutely unhinged choices

pretty much the same as leaving an eight-year-old in charge of choosing what to eat

they do unimaginable things with the food

their wives can't control their diet and they go WILD (especially Franko, Jamie still loves bacon - I assume his wife is a vegetarian or vegan and made any meat a forbidden item at home lol)

once Franko went to Everton, his eating habits went downhill - without Christine's watchful eye and without a proper home (I assume he stayed in a hotel), he ordered KFC and greasy pizza almost daily, to the point of having stacked boxes and buckets in his room (he had to quickly hide or throw them away when his Wife came to visit him. maybe he didn't bother with hiding them from Anthony, and Anthony thought it was fucking pathetic and sad for an aging man to be living and eating like this.... Frank doesn't even bother taking Anthony somewhere nice for dinner like he used to do with Mason)

Happy couple.

#Franko is like *yeah that's me. you're probably wondering how I got into this situation* #frank lampard #lampardverse

[protect-daniel-james]

Just slip in, why not, Jamie?

I love how Lampardverse is writing itself.

#is this what Franko said to you? #(more deranged) Is this what Uncle Harry said? #lampardverse #jamie jamie cousin jamie
