'I Took Every Member of 5 Seconds of Summer on a Date to Nando's

We spoke about fame, boy bands, and how we are all hurtling towards our inevitable deaths...'

The way I'm certain of poutine's anon nationality-

i assume asking “do you like poutine” is the canadian version of asking “do you like a cheeky nandos or trip down the chippy”

Moonboys: Top Notch Banter

Marc Spector & Steven Grant

404 words / Masterlist.

If you like what you see, leave a like or reblog and follow me ♥

Summary: Steven's all fired up and trying to explain British things to Marc. All of this is complete nonsense and none of it should be taken seriously.

Notes: Inspired by this post. Was funny to me it ended up being 404 words.

Marc was ready to pull his hair out. Staring forlornly back towards the reflection where his counterpart had been driving him crazy for the better part of a day.

They’d argued earlier and Steven decided there was no peace to be had. He chose violence, though nothing like Marc or Jake’s. Talking to himself mostly. Rambling, rambling, rambling. All in the constant vicinity of Marc. Making it near impossible to concentrate. If he couldn’t beat it. He tried joining it.

“But what does cheeky Nando's mean?? It has to have a meaning.”

Maybe he shouldn’t have asked. He was verging on losing his own sanity.

“Mate it’s hard to explain.” Steven started with a disappointed sigh. “It’s just like one day you’ll just be with your mates having a look in JD.”

“… right.” Marc answered. Finding none of it right. He really was trying to follow along. Steven continued on with little breath between his strung-together words of gibberish.

“And you might fancy curry club at the ‘Spoons but your lad Calum, who’s an absolute ledge and the Archbishop of Banterbury will be like, ‘Brevs, let’s have a cheeky Nando's instead.’ And you’ll think ‘Top. Let’s smash it.’”

Hand rubbing over his face to comprehend this level of fuckery. Marc stared for the longest time.

“What are you saying?? You’re not even British? Have you picked this up off the internet?”

“Oi! You wot. Don’t say that. I’ll have you.” Steven pointed his finger up threateningly. “I’ll clap your ears together, I swear on me mum.”

Marc inhaled longingly for a moment of peace. Head tilting back to stare at the ceiling. It was either he put up with this for another hour or say what he’d been meaning to say.

“Alright. Fine. I really can’t listen to you anymore. I’m sorry I ate the last Oreo.”

“Too right! I knew it was you! Knobhead. What’re you like?”

“Did you even know half the shit you were talking about?”

“Course! JD’s a shop you have a gander in. And everyone knows ‘Spoons. Solid place if you fancy a pint in the beer garden. Even if it tastes like piss.”

“Okay?”

And still, somehow, none of it was okay for Marc.

“Gotta love a cheeky Nando’s when the occasion calls for it. Just don’t invite any ledges or Archbishops of Banterbury unless you wanna get wankered.”

“Steven. I’m begging you, please. Forget I ever asked.”

I think Kazuma would meet Gina for the first time and almost immediately be like "what are you on about" in a similar way to how Ryunosuke was confused about what the hell she was saying during McGilded's trial lol.

I think he'd mostly pick up on things through her accent but then she says "I thought I'd 'ave a butcher's at the scene, I couldn't Adam an' Eve it!" while telling Kazuma and Barok about a crime scene and Kazuma's like "WHAT ARE YOU SAYING" then the scene cuts to several hours later and Gina's doing her best to explain Cockney rhyming slang to Barok and Kazuma because she'll be working with them a lot so she figures they need to understand the slang she's using, except she just explains what the slang means (butcher's meaning look, Adam and Eve meaning believe, etc) and doesn't explain the actual process of how it works (look > rhymes with butcher's hook > butcher's, for example) despite Kazuma being like "where the fuck do you get plates from feet"

What I love about Edwin and Charles is that they are both so painfully English. Edwin with his Edwardian Stiff-Upper Lip Repression and Charles with his 'Brils' and 'wots all dis then?'

Dear non-UK fic writers; you're all wonderful and I love you, but if you ever want a native Brit to give your Harry Potter or GO fanfic (or hell, any fic with someone from the UK in) a read for Britishisms I am 100% happy to help.

It's just that I recently read a fic where someone said that bangers and mash is a breakfast food and I want to HELP.

I'm glad they addressed Verg's non-involvement with the Ligmas and it turns out he's under contract to not interfere with the Sinners' work or endeavors to get the Golden Boughs. Also he seems to be starting to like them which is certainly...unexpected...

If I win against the Toymaker can my prize be taking him out on a date and maybe a cheeky snog behind the bins afterwards?

[ineedfairypee]

Yes pls

[daziechane]

I'm visiting London for the first time and while it's exciting to see the sights and the holiday decorations and all I'm most geeked about seeing things I've only read about in fanfic. Boots! Tesco! Primark! Charing Cross! Covent Garden! NANDOS!!

Hi

I saw your post about you and your fellow brits being afraid of flavour and wanted to recommend you the Galloway Wild Food blog

gallowaywildfoods com/wild-spices-of-the-uk/

You say you're British, I'm not, and frankly I find it embarrassing for you that you would go online and disparage your own culture in a way that shows your ignorance to the extreme. Before going online and shaming your ancestors, your country, your country men and yourself, try and do some learning about the place you claim to be from. This is only the flavours comparable to "exotic" spices, and leaves out other unique flavours of the island

The moron who freaked out about the Italian restaurant literally said the food was fine. The "issue" was that the owner was friendly. You're so eager to talk shit about yourself and your people you're making up issues

The second hand embarrassment of watching white people lambast their own cultures is literally borderline lethal, please be a better person to yourself and your neighbours, instead of signaling your self hatred all over the internet to literally no one's benefit

Oh someone got a whole bee in their ass and I missed making a timely response! Whatever shall I do!

Sadly for this poor benighted fool, I am British. English, even! As in, born there, lived there my formative years, and yes, have sampled the food and culture. I speak from experience 🥰

So yeah, I’m absolutely going to take the piss out of my own homeland, especially when we can almost all admit we righteously deserve it - and the food, yeah, is fair game. So is the football, by the way!

I actually like (and cook) a lot of English food, but taking ten to fifteen seconds to look over a recipe will show you that there’s almost always an extremely short spice list, unless the recipe’s inspired by somewhere else

Salt, pepper, lea and perrins, you never even saw cilantro when I was a kid unless you were at an Indian restaurant

And, frankly, this kind of person? The kind of person who wants to get all butthurt and squinchy about someone else making fun of their own culture when they’re not even from that culture?

(Gee, I wonder where you could be from? So concerned about “white people” of any actual nationality being appropriately “proud”? 🤔)

Yeah, you deserve to be upset more often 🥰

We had a whole government party made to upset people like you, it’s part of our national heritage 🥰

Cringe and die of second hand embarrassment kitten, people who are secure in their cultural identity don’t need to prop ourselves up constantly by puffing chest and pretending we’re The Best And No One Could Say Anything Bad Ever

I will rip on English cooking (and especially English bacon, which you physically cannot crisp because it comes from a different part of the fucking pig) until the day that I die with love in my heart and a smile on my face, and other peoples’ approval has never and will never even turn my head

(You’ve never had lamb til you’ve had Welsh lamb though. No idea what they’re doing differently but it’s a whole thing)

Perhaps if you learned to laugh at yourself a little you’d feel less threatened when other people do the same?

Thanks for the blog rec though, I’ll check it out although if it has too much of the pseudo-nationalism you’ve been huffing I’ll probably tap out

I feel like I'm losing my mind. I just found out the establishment is just called "Nandos" I thought the full name was "cheeky nandos" I really don't understand british culture.

[vampyre-bytess]

When I said the Fuckboys were dumb as rocks, this is what I mean.

For context: they had an argument about cars at the Nandos window booth and Logan and Casey decided it would be “wicked bruv” to get a cake customised for them to proudly proclaim winning the argument
