Hey hi I just had this horrible terrible toxic thought of what if in the exclusive dvds they.. They add some new "unseen" scenes and what what what if what if they add...... It.....

Like what are the chances that we win* what if what if we finally get this blooper in proper quality

If they do that for us I will literally watch bumpers stupid show for them. Not legally, but I'll watch it.

*chances are very, very low, I know.

waves it is an honour to see you in my ask box. but why do you insist on torturing me

i mean WE CAN ALWAYS HOPE AND DREAM

TV shows for my followers to get to know me better 

Thanks @sonechkaandthedynamos for tagging me!! I’m very big on shows and I could blabber on about them for hours😳🤩

In no particular order (cause that is genuinely so extremely hard for me to do):

1. Parks & Recreation (imo, the best show to ever sitcom)

2. POSE (changed my life)

3. How To Get Away With Murder (I don’t do rewatches but this I will)

4. She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (literally cannot imagine what life would be like without it)

5. Game of Thrones (I’m fairly sure it’s the first show I ever really got into)

If it didn’t defeat the purpose of the tag, I’d put like thirty more on here. So, instead, here are the honorable mentions: 

The Good Place, Arrested Development, Westworld, Supergirl (we all know why (hint: it’s not the writing ajashgdhasgdfah)), The Boys, Fargo, Arcane, Derry Girls, Mad Men, Fleabag. 

I’m tagging @buttplughead @claimedbytheearth (I gotta know the select few) @jackredfieldwasmyjacob @skamesp @sketchywave and whomever wants to do it too!!

#tagged #sofia if you want more recommendations I have a long list #feel like I might add some more eventually #cause rn I'm watching seinfeld #which was PRETTY SCARY cause I already tried to watch comedies from before and their humor had aged like milk #but you know what #seinfeld is one of the funniest shows from the 90s that I've watched #the last of us is fairly new too which is why I didn't add it #(for sure it's one of my fav games though) #oh and abbott elementary!!

[euphoricmood]

thank you @krimprim!!! I do love you and talking about myself

: tag nine people you want to get to know better!

Favourite colour: dark forest green, no hesitation. it's vibrant! it's green, like my eyes. it's nature! leaves! trees! bushes! clovers!

Currently reading: I'm in between books rn. I finished this week end the Bluest eye by Toni Morrison and holy shh it was disturbing but in such a smart way, after reading the song of Solomon I feared all her books would be too heavy for me. It was, but the narrating made it accessible.

Last song: Leave my room by DBFC, my father is pestering me about work so it does seem fitting. also I'm ready to go berserk at any time , real soon.

Last series: I watched the first episode of Physical, a apple original, about a woman in the 80's suffering from an eating disorder and generally dissatisfied of her life as a housewife. the synopsis sound unimpressive but I liked this episode. she is relatable, I love this actress, and her self loathed inner voice almost monotonous feels very real to me. the whole eating disorder thing can be triggering.

Last movie: The Suicide Squad haha, so much violence. a nice movie overall, I love ratcatcher and harley quinn outfits. Pete Davidson's character die very quickly.

Sweet/savoury/spicy: usually I would say sweet but lately I keep eating jalapeño. but I do add too much sugar in everything and can't go a day without chocolate..

Currently working on: the start of school is coming soon, so I'm updating the program of what I'll teach my students. little babies who don't know yet how dictatorial a drama teacher I am. bouhaha. jokes aside they love me dw

CREATOR TAG MEME

Rules: It’s time to love yourselves! Choose your 5 (ish) favorite works you created in the past year (fics, art, edits, etc.) and link them below to reflect on the amazing things you brought into the world in 2020. Tag as many writers/artists/etc. as you want (fan or original) so we can spread the love and link each other to awesome works!

Tagged by; @beyond-bechloe @chloebeale @sketchywave & @pan-de-queer - Thanks so much friends.

I have not written that much this year, but I’ll go for it. Also, sorry this is so laaaate 😩

1. If you took a sip for every broken promise, you’d end up with an empty cup - AO3 link The one with Skip. Chloe is dating a married man and Beca is having a hard time with it. Written for Bechloe Week 2020, prompt ‘cheating’. 

2. Chick Magnet - AO3 link The one with the chick and the duck. Chloe brings home some unexpected house guests. Written for Bechloe Week 2020, prompt ‘baby farm animals’.

3. Mornings aren’t that bad with Chloe - AO3 link The one with Beca having an internal freak out when waking up in Chloe’s arms.

I was hoping to add something to this list for christmas but that unfortunately did not happen. I’ll save the idea for next year tho.

To complete the list (and to push myself a bit)

4. I have an outline ready for a one shot; as a Bella’s bonding night, Chloe and Stacie organize a Ladies Night party. Beca does not yet know what a Ladies Night party is exactly.

5. I’ve been wanting to write a collection of one shots based on different Friends episodes.

I’m tagging; @ridiculously-over-obsessed @aubreyposenesquire @incredibeale @bechloebeale and who ever wants to do this!

One-Sided War, part four

An ending, @sketchywave

Whatever Chloe had expected Beca to pick her up in, that lean silhouette on the back of a Honda Shadow motorcycle was not even on the list of possibilities. She watches as Beca parks the bike and whips off her helmet, giving one of those sexy hair tosses that only seem to happen in commercials.

“Hey Chloe,” Beca greets, tucking her helmet under one arm. “It’s no problem if you don’t want to ride on this thing, we can Uber or something instead.”

Chloe shakes her head and starts walking towards Beca, “No, it’s totes fine. As long as you have another helmet for me.”

Beca breaks out into a grin and goes for a saddlebag, pulling out another helmet, just like her own, only in a dark metallic grey. “Of course,” Beca says, holding it out to her. And then she winks, “After all, safety first.” Chloe fights a swoon as Beca helps do up the strap on her helmet, staring intently into Chloe’s eyes as her fingers work beneath Chloe’s chin. Then she pulls on her own helmet, slides a leg across the bike, and holds out her hand to help Chloe up behind her, pointing out the rests where Chloe can place her boots.

“Don’t worry,” Beca assures her, voice slightly muffled with the helmet on. “I’m not taking you too far. I don’t want your butt to get numb.”

A dozen different, filthy thoughts flicker through Chloe’s mind, but she doesn’t say a single one. She just feels her cheeks warm inside the helmet as she smiles into the padding under her lips.

True to her word, Beca doesn’t take them far. It’s maybe ten minutes before Beca pulls over to the side of the road, and parks in one of those small edge spots reserved for motorcycles. She helps Chloe off the back seat, and then gets off herself. Chloe tries to take off her helmet by herself, but however Beca had done it up eludes her nimble fingers until Beca’s laughing in front of her and reaching up to push Chloe’s fingers out of the way.

When Chloe pulls the helmet off, she notices that Beca swallows noticeably, and can’t help feeling pleased at the reaction she elicited. She waits impatiently for Beca to tuck the helmet away before looping her arm through Beca’s, “So where are you taking me this evening?”

Beca pulls Chloe a littler closer. “Now I hope you won’t be mad,” Beca begins, leading Chloe along the sidewalk. Chloe stops abruptly.

“Why would I be mad, Beca Mitchell?”

Beca winces comically at the falsely unhappy voice Chloe uses. “Well, you mentioned being a famous author, so, naturally, I Googled you.”

This doesn’t sound that bad, so Chloe resumes walking and lets Beca continue to lead. As far as she knows, there’s nothing particularly bad about her online.

After looking around, Beca darts down a sidewalk between buildings, pulling Chloe along. “And I couldn’t help but go down a bit of a rabbit hole when I saw that one of your early author bios spoke about your time in university...” Beca stops in the middle of the sidewalk and gestures to the building fairly hidden behind some fake palm trees. “As part of the a cappella sensational group, the Barden Bellas.” She sweeps some of the fronds out of the way to reveal a sign that makes Chloe burst out laughing so hard that tears almost make it to the corners of her eyes.

Steve’s Karaoke Bar.

“Oh my God, Beca, I can’t do karaoke here with a literal music genius,” Chloe says, gesturing at all of Beca.

“Hey, we can go somewhere else if you don’t like it, but I thought it might be fun for you to relive those sing-along glory days,” Beca smiles, tucking her hands into her pockets. Chloe can’t see a shred of malice in her face, and it kind of really warms her heart that Beca put in this much effort despite being a very big deal who probably could have had someone else organize this excursion for her.

“If it helps,” Beca offers, “I wasn’t going to sing. So no need to feel threatened.” With this, Beca smirks and pulls open the door, holding it for Chloe to walk through.

Of course, that only serves to ignite the competitive streak in Chloe, so she marches right up to Beca, leans in close to whisper into her ear, “Oh, I’ll get you to sing, Becs,” and then walks right into the place, heading straight for a table for two pointed out to her by the guy behind the bar.

“Jesus,” Beca whispers, her mind short-circuiting briefly at how attractive Chloe sounds, before following her date into the bar.

Things Chloe’s learned after three hours which included forcing Beca into two duets and two solo songs each:

1. Her eyes are more gorgeous in dim lighting than the light of day. The flames kind of dance along the edges of the irises.

2. Beca does a version of R. Kelly’s “Ignition” remix that could drop Chloe’s underwear, and probably every other woman’s in this bar.

3. She’s a responsible driver, only sharing one drink with Chloe at the beginning, and then indulging in a couple of Coke Zeros - not, apparently, because Beca counts calories (she doesn’t) but because she actually likes the flavour.

4. She’s witty, and not just with the mildly seductive one-liners. There are those, for sure, and boy are they great to be on the receiving end of, but she listens to Chloe’s stories and throws in a few clever comments, too.

5. Yeah, that’s right, she listens.

6. She’s adorably started calling Chloe “Chlo” and it makes Chloe’s insides all warm and fuzzy.

7. They sound really good when they turn “Titanium” by David Guetta and Sia into a duet.

8. Beca asks good questions. She asks about what Chloe likes and dislikes about her life, the whys, the details. She doesn’t let a conversation die with monosyllables.

9. It’s safe to say Chloe is more than a little in love at this point.

When they step back outside into the crisp night air, Chloe’s still laughing about a comment Beca made, as Beca digs into the saddlebags to draw out their helmets. Again, she helps tighten the strap beneath Chloe’s chin, and maybe it’s the three drinks Chloe indulged in over the course of the evening, or maybe it’s the way the buzzing neon reflects off Beca’s irises - but as Beca’s fingers brush against her neck, Chloe says, “Wait.”

Immediately, Beca’s fingers drop away from Chloe and she takes a half-step back, “I’m sorry, did I do something?” but Chloe’s fighting to loosen the straps and finally, finally takes off the helmet. She steps forward towards Beca who’s still looking confused, even a little worried, and she puts left hand on Beca’s cheek.

“You did everything,” Chloe says, and then she’s pressing forward, closing her eyes, and they’re kissing.

The street isn’t busy, if anything, it’s deserted, despite the occasional rowdy echoes from Steve’s. So they kiss, the helmet falls from Chloe’s fingertips as she brings her right hand up to cup Beca’s other cheek, and trail her fingers into Beca’s hair. Beca’s still holding onto her helmet, but her free hand has come around to press lightly against the small of Chloe’s back.

It’s not a fervent kiss, they’re not winding up for a home-run adventure - it’s soft, gentle, exploratory. Chloe learns that Beca likes to have her lip tugged carefully by Chloe’s teeth. When they finally pull away, they’re both wearing smiles, and even in the low lighting, they can tell that the other is flushed.

“What did I do to deserve that?” Beca asks. Chloe doesn’t think she’s flattering herself to think that her voice might even be a little breathless.

“Like I said,” Chloe wraps her arms around Beca’s neck. “Everything.”

Beca laughs. “That’s pretty cryptic, Chlo.”

Chloe shrugs, and bends down to bury her head in Beca’s neck.

“Luckily for you, I wouldn’t mind spending a lot more time to figure you out,”  Beca adds.

“Good,” Chloe murmurs. “I won’t lie - I could pretty easily see myself falling for you.”

She feels Beca smile against her cheek. “Don’t worry - I’ll catch you.”

[suituuup]

On this first day of 2021, I wanted to round up my favorite fics/art works of 2020 in a masterlist! I wish I had the time to read every single fic out there but unfortunately there are only so many days in a year. There are obviously many more amazing creators than the ones mentioned here! Thank you to every single one, for all that you bring to this fandom!

favorite holiday fic

Christmas Eve with the Bellas

by @snowflake19-things​

Beca is roped into spending Christmas Eve with a redhead she doesn't know, and her group of friends, whom she also doesn't know. Sounds like a recipe for disaster. It turns out, however, they're pretty okay. Weird, but okay. 

favorite fluff fic

it's 3 AM (I must be lonely)   

by @becasbelt

It really is getting late, and Beca knows that she really should be getting to bed, but Chloe really is cute and her essay isn’t done anyways.

Or, a gradual love story told over math problems and note cards.

a fun one

Dammit, Zsa Zsa!

by @scylla-ramshorn

Sheila’s naughty poodle sneaks something valuable from Beca’s suitcase during an important family affair. Chaos ensues.

my favorite series

Walk Along Side of Me by boatstoesta 

Teacher AU - Beca Mitchell starts her teaching career at a new school in the middle of a semester. There's one teacher that rubs her the wrong way- Miss Chloe Beale.

a fic i’m excited about

I have several!

'cause you weren't mine to lose   

by @chloebeale

Back in college, Beca was so in love with Chloe Beale. She never told her, though. She never told anyone. So, when Chloe shows up, years later, on Beca’s doorstep, drunk out of her mind after a bad breakup, Beca is not going to turn her away. She does the decent thing and invites her in to get sobered up…

The next morning, she realizes she maybe should’ve just heard her out last night.

Broken Clocks by @anastasia-93-daybidaylove

Beca lives in LA; she's a music producer, about to release her first solo album, succesful and accomplished. The life she'd always wanted. Chloe lives back where they used to; she has a completely different life than Beca's, quiet and peaceful. The life she'd always wanted. It's been a long time since the were Beca and Chloe; whatever that means anymore. But life has decided to bring them together once more. How much will it succeed?

With Storm and Fury by @scylla-ramshorn

In an alternate America where witches ended their persecution by cutting a deal with the U.S. government to fight for their country, 19-year-old Fixer witch Beca Mitchell reports to Fort Salem for basic training in magical combat.

Presque Vu by thetoneofsurprise

Suffering from severe career burnout, Beca’s Mom convinces her to journey back home to Portland for some overdue recovery time. Reluctant but obliging, Beca stays home for the holidays. But going back to where you grew up means going back to all the things you left behind, no matter how much things have changed… or how much might have been forgotten.

Helloooooo! Fog, cider and spice? (✪ω✪)/🌈

Hi wavesieeeee!

Fog - how well do you think you’d do in a zombie apocalypse scenario?

I think I would do very well to be honest. I’ve watched all seasons of the walking dead and I know what to do. My best friend and I have a plan ready just in case. 😆

Cider - a food that you disliked as a child but now enjoy?

I was a picky eater as a kid so I didn’t like a lot of things. One thing I distinctly remember not wanting to eat was fish. I live for sushi now. 🙈

Spice - have you ever encountered a house that you believed to be haunted?

I try to stay away from places that are supposedly haunted because that scares the crap out of me.

I did experience something kinda weird once. The night before one of my friend’s bachelorette party me and the brides sister slept over in their childhood home (because we had to leave very early). In the middle of the night I woke up and saw a man standing by the door of the room. In my sleepy state I thought it was the dad or something and went back to sleep.

In the car the next day, we were talking about the night before and I told them I saw someone in the room last night. Their mom said “dad wasn’t home last night, he was working the nightshift”. So I started describing the man I had seen and saw my friends give each other a weird look. So I was like “whaaaaat?” And the mom told me my friend never wanted to go upstairs by herself when she was a kid, because there was a man standing in the hallway. My description was exactly the same as hers. 😧

[whatiwillsay]

This will be the last post here…. Dear Tumblr. I think it’s time to lay you to rest. A lovely friend you’ve been. Thank you friends for-

sike! i don't know about a rebrand but here's what i will say...

when i started a swiftgron blog in 2020 the initial goal was to "prove swiftgron happened" back in 2012-2013 and hopefully find 10-20 people who might want to follow along and interact.

my how things have changed! a podcast, a few new best friends, and 1700 of you gremlins signing up for the ride later we've outgrown our swiftgron niche! there are a few reasons for this: first and foremost is i don't think dianna wants us following her specifically to try and "prove" she's dating anyone or another. i actually do adore her and respect her and when she gave this interview, she did make it sound like she doesn't adore people focusing that intensely on her personal life.

now we're still gonna talk about dianna as much as you guys want and certainly her past (achele and swiftgron are too iconic and the ship on keeping that stuff under wraps has sailed) but we don't need to be tracking her current-day trying to "catch" her up to anything. not that any of us do that but i don't want anyone to see a blog title like "swiftgron-get-married" and not understand that it's a joke and start trying to seek out evidence that swiftgron is together. they aren't. it'd be amazing if they were but they're not!

the second reason is we want to open up the blog and the pod to topics beyond gaylor! we want to talk all sorts of pop culture, other celeb gossip, media trends & critique, and I'll always be here to offer a bit of sisterly advice should you want it! we'll still be talking a lot about gaylor and you better believe I'm going to make the red and 1989 rerecords all about swiftgron. we're not taking topics of conversation away we're adding them!

the third reason is the swiftgron-get-married blog has served its purpose as best as it can. you can't actually "prove" someone dated someone else unless they tell you they did. that's never going to happen and i also want to move away from "proving" anything one way or another and into a more speculative/theoretical space. at the end of the day, none of us know for sure one way or another and that's how it's always going to be, and that's ok!

i'm so thankful for every single one of you coming along on this journey with me. we have lots of new content planned!

so without further ado welcome to 'what i will say' - a collection of things that my friends and i will say. enjoy the rabbit hole!

link to my old faq - i'll get a new one written soon!

special thanks to my lovely friend @sketchywave for our pod and blog art!
