Yes, having a crush on a fictional character is bad. But have you ever had a crush on a fictionalised version of a vaguely problematic historical figure??

Lilly had a talk with Lenny 💭ˎˊ˗ (definitely not just because Ollie will push legal actions if he doesn't see the kids soon.)

previous // next // beginning

Transcript:

Lillian: “Hey, Lenny-bear? I want to talk to you about something…” Lennon: “About what, Mommy?”

Lillian: "About your dad. You’ve probably noticed we haven’t talked much about him since we left." Lennon: "Yeah... I miss him."

Lillian: "It’s okay to miss him. But there’s something important you need to understand."

Lillian: “Your dad… he made some choices that hurt us. Choices that made it hard for us to stay happy together.” Lennon: “Is that why you were so sad?”

Lillian: “Yes, honey. That’s why it was important for us to leave. Sometimes, being with someone who makes you sad isn’t good.”

Lennon: “Does that mean... he doesn’t love us anymore? because we left?" Lillian: “No, sweetie. Your dad loves you and Hendrix so much. That’s something I know will never change.”

Lillian: “He wants to see you both. But I want to make sure it’s something you want, too." Lennon: “I… think I’d like to see him. Just to know he’s okay.”

Lillian: "Okay, Lenny. And I’ll be there with you every step of the way, alright?” Lennon: “Thanks, Mom.”

15 Questions

Thank you @keysandopenmind for tagging me in this! I'll tag @halleyuhm @delusionisaplace @spademuses @pga-books @nemaliwrites and whoever else wants to play (no pressure!)

I'm gonna take a little shift and do this for Councilors Shanna Miles and Marlowe Sidney from Not Your Typical Fairytale

Rules: Answer the questions as yourself or one of your OCs!

Are you named after anyone?

Sidney: Marlowe and Greyson don't come from anywhere but Silas is my father's name. There's a family tradition of using your parent's name as your middle name, and it goes back several generations. Miles: No.

When was the last time you cried?

Sidney: When I get stressed I cry as soon as I'm in private. Also known as yesterday evening. Miles: Stress-crying is pretty common for me. I had a bit of a breakdown the other day after I got done putting up with Councilors Mason and Johnson.

Do you have kids?

Miles: I had two daughters. They should be 8 and 10, but I haven't seen them in six years. Sidney: Not yet, but me and my partner both would like to have kids once...we get this all figured out.

Do you use sarcasm?

Miles: Never. Sidney: I find it pretty hard to understand, so I like to think I don't use it often.

What's the first thing you notice about others?

Sidney: How they react to me. Do they flinch back? Do they approach with confidence? How do they see me as a person? Miles: How well kept they are. Piers usually comes to meetings looking like they rolled out of bed and threw the first business attire on they could find. Johnson always looks put together with a crisp suit.

What's your eye color?

Miles: Light brown. Sidney: Grey!

Scary stories or happy endings?

Sidney: Happy endings. Miles: ...Happy endings.

Any special talents?

Sidney: I'm pretty good with sciences and I work off and on a genetics project. Miles: I don't know? Maybe legal writing? I'm pretty good at writing up legislation and the like.

Where were you born?

Sidney: Athens Zone of Safety, Georgia! Miles: Savannah

What are your hobbies?

Miles: I don't really have a lot of free time. I spend most of my time working on my duty-related work. If anything, it's crocheting. Keeping my hands busy. Sidney: If I'm not working, I'm down in the Laboratory with Dr. Panya. That's my hobby.

Do you have any pets?

Miles: My wife had a cat. Sidney: We have a family dog back home, but he's not with me in ATLZoS

What sports do you play/have played?

Sidney: I don't do sports. Miles: I used to play football and baseball as a kid with my little brothers, but nothing seriously

How tall are you?

Sidney: Six foot, ten inches Miles: 5'7"

Favorite subject in school?

Sidney: Of course, it was science. Specifically chemistry, although I do a lot more bio-related stuff. Miles: History.

Dream job?

Miles: I used to be the Mayor of Savannah, and I'd love to return to that role, but I've served my term limit. Sidney: If anything, I'd like to work and live in the Lab with Dr. Panya full time. The government stuff really isn't my jam.

O YEAH ALSO

I promote other blogs sometimes and I'm trying to hang out over on this one more at the moment, so-

if you guys ever wanna bug one of my OCs, I write my precious Marlowe over at @blxndebutlering

they're a genderfluid (he/she/they) under-butler working at the Phantomhive estate with a rough past, a couple addictions, and absolutely VICIOUS loyalty to anyone they've come to care about

you can come poke them with questions and stuff! I write little things with them here occasionally, but if you ever wanna bother MarMar more directly, you're more than welcome to scoot over there~

[hopeless-eccentric]

A little later in hard-boiled detective fiction, but I love how in Kiss Me Deadly (mid-fifties), you're supposed to think Hammer is a great person because he's friends with a Greek guy.

God, there really is nothing like 20s detective fiction to remind you that prejudice is a social construct.

You'll have a story with a crossdressing thief which is mildly transmisogynistic but completely devoid of modern vitriol; it literally comes off as "here is a fun oddity that lets me be Clever about French grammar"

And in the very next story you will learn fifteen different slurs for Italians

First table read for a new musical in development, The Lap Dance Kid (book by Mike King & Adam Blotner, music by Adam Blotner, story by Mike King)

Based on Mike King's real story of growing up Jewish in 1970s Denver with parents who ran a strip club, The Lap Dance Kid is a heartwarming story about family, community, and female empowerment.

Cast includes Noah Marlow (Book of Mormon), Ben Cherry (Indecent), and Lauren Molina (Rock of Ages, Sweeney Todd)

Directed by Rachel Klein (Around the World in 80 Days)

would it be too much to give my autistic knockoff-fbi employee npc whos currently having an affair with his kinda mean and uptight female partner/coworker the nickname "Creepy" Marlowe or am i like in the clear

[tuxedo-rabbit]

Hang on,

If I put Gertrude and Marlow in the same worldstate both of their LIs have the potential of showing up in DA4

On the other hand putting my 2 hot mess characters in the same worldstate feels cruel.
