That moment when Nash showed the heirloom ring to his brothers:

Jameson: Sh*t, I’m next.

Later that night:

Jameson: *drafting up his vows*

TIG Drabble #1

As she watched her breathing even out and felt the grip on her hand grow lax, she leaned down, softly brushing hair away with a light touch and pressed a soft kiss to her daughter's forehead. Then, sitting up, for a second more she remained seated, sighing tiredly, before getting up and heading for the kitchen.

There were still chores to finish up even with her little one tucked away. Unwashed dishes and leftover dinner that needed to be packed away for tomorrow. After all, every bit counted nowadays. And if she had to, she would give extras to her little girl, just so she would thrive even with the little they had.

Once she reached the door, Hannah stopped and turned, one more time taking in Avery. She was asleep. She was safe. She was perfect. That's all that mattered. But cruel was fate to remind her of him. She still thought of him every time she looked at her daughter, even though she wasn't his there were many things that reminded her of her lost love; her quirks and especially her intelligence-the resemblance was uncanny. How ironic. Sometimes she let herself believe that she was his and not Ricky's but she never admitted it out loud. But she would tonight.

Into the quiet of the room, she whispered, "Sometimes, I wish she was your daughter." She pretended he heard. Another night it would break her heart, but this time it was enough. Oh to lie to oneself. What a luxury.

So can we all agree that Who's Afraid of Little Old Me? and I Can Do It With a Broken Heart are totally Avery's songs? Because the themes of expectations, rumors, and everything about carrying a heavy load with a smile on your face just sounds about right describing our girl. Sure, not all the lyrics match her to a T but they definitely do offer a light to similarities of her reality both pre-inheritance and post-inheritance.

I wanted to do a compilation of songs that I think suit Hannah and Toby without it really being a playlist but enough songs that would sum up their relationship (at least of what we know about) pretty well in short. I give you:

Hannah and Toby's Top Ten

This Love (T.V.)-Taylor Swift

Something Great-One Direction

Up-Olly Murs feat. Demi Lovato

Thinking Out Loud-Ed Sheeran

Edge of Seventeen-Stevie Nicks

Wildest Dreams-Taylor Swift

Hold My Hand-Lady Gaga

Wildflowers-Ed Sheeran

So Long, London-Taylor Swift

Let Somebody Go-Coldplay feat. Selena Gomez

Hope you like! I may make more top tens based on specific artists later on.

The way I’m going to blast This Love and Something Great on repeat when I read Hannah and Toby’s story.

Also, tell me I’m not the only one thinking how well So Long, London would describe the end of their relationship. The bitterness, the sadness, all from Hannah’s POV. Ugh, I’m not okay.

Hey everyone, I know it's been a while since I posted anything but life got busy and now it finally slowed down again. I am pleased to say that I have enough time to focus on editing my drafts for headcanons, stories, and theories so once again, I thank you for your patience. I can't wait to share Friends Don't Kiss Like That with all of you Averyjameson fake dating fans. It's going to be a wild but good ride.

Random question but does anyone ever think back to that scene in TIG where Avery is getting ready for her first ever gala and her hair is being plaited into a braid that Emily wore? Yeah? Did anyone ever ask themselves what that fricking braid was even gonna end up looking like? Because for real, I think my brain stopped working multiple times trying to read that passage and while I was attempting to imagine the finished product. The loading screen never uploaded a clear image and it probably did look like a bad image rendering done by AI (with no extra limbs) but in my head. Anyways, that was my thought of the day. Toodles!

Fanfic Update

So, I'm sure many of you are very excited for this. It will be out at some point hopefully by the end of March or in April, Idk, all depends on that writer's motivation. That's being a writer, transparency with the audience. I hope this satisfies to some degree until the actual fanfic post. Note that it will also be cross-posted to AO3 under ThePuzzledWriter if you prefer that format.

PS: From now on, every fanfic to come will be announced this way; cover reveal, then cover plus summary and excerpt, then finally the fic itself.

Book Cover:

Summary:

Jameson just broke up with Emily after finding out she was also dating his brother at the same time as him. Now he needs to get her off his back and what better than a fake relationship? And who better for the job than his best friend, Avery Grambs? She agrees and they also come up with a kiss-only-in-emergency-situations-clause (read: Emily). However, what happens when the time finally comes for that clause to come into play?

Excerpt:

[riddles-n-games]

Hey, yeah go ahead; ask away. I am going to put out another post this weekend with an excerpt and summary of the fic as well. And yes, I am doing well, just awfully busy.

Why does this quote fit Grayson and Jameson both so well, just differently? But especially Gray.

If you read my little anecdote about Avery and Jameson being the magician and illusionist duo in So It Goes…, I was thinking as one usually does and now I got a related headcanon.

Jameson and Avery have a little girl as their first (her name is Hannah, duh) and as a baby, she would very easily get separation anxiety. Avery was also susceptible to it and she would get very emotional, no matter how much she hated it but her husband helped her get through it. At times, Jameson was the only parent around and when their baby would get fussy or distressed, he would do card tricks and other magic gimmicks to distract her. Hannah became entranced and quite literally that became one of Jameson’s trademark go-to “tricks up his sleeve” to calm her down until Avery could attend to her again. 

It encouraged him to learn more fun tricks, taking inspo from Ant-Man, he made it a hobby of his and as his daughter grew, he made road trips, lounge waiting, and bedtime stories and games so much more fun. Eventually, he started also teaching her simple ones which she did in front of her preschool friends. Let’s just say he was very proud of his work. Too proud.

The last two days had me going crazy for So It Goes… by Taylor Swift and I got to say it’s one of my fave Averyjameson anthems. I especially love the imagery she uses with the magician and illusionist which I say is a great parallel for Avery and Jamie. Now, that just brings up a new AU to write but here’s the thing; in terms of the song, while I can see either/or in the roles, somehow, the best one that fits to me is Avery being the magician and Jameson being the illusionist. In terms of the song, Taylor described her lover as the magician and herself as the illusionist which means he’s the main act and she’s his right hand but if I’m being honest, the way The Inheritance Games gives us Avery and Jameson, it feels like that turns the roles around. Ooh, gonna have to make this an AU at some point but that’s a story for another time. 

[riddles-n-games]

Okay guys, remember how we were all making fun of the fact that we barely saw Jameson in class or school at all doing anything academics-related and then he joked to Avery in TFG how maybe Yale has a secret society in need of a Hawthorne? Yeah, fun times.

Anyways, @hathorneheiress and I were talking about the brothers' childhoods and I know that people have mentioned in describing Jameson, sometimes they used the word philosophical. And he is! So, I thought maybe one degree he might actually consider is philosophy; I really do believe he has the mind for it. However, on a more scientific level, we also agreed that psychology could be another field of interest. He is an analytical person and he is one to go at a thing from hundreds of angles, spin the theory, try again, and just in general not give up on something until it is done. Jameson also is very good at looking for tells in people, though that's a result of how he and his brothers were raised so that's not specific to him, but he is more fearless and reckless in how he makes people tick. I think him assessing his father in The Brothers Hawthorne was a great example of this and takes the whole "Takes one to know one." to the next level. Honestly, I could also see him as an interrogator or detective, too.

But, to end this off, in summary, I believe we finally answered that fandom favorite of what the heck Jameson would actually study in college despite the big mystery of how he graduated high school in the first place, what grades he has to show for it, or even what subjects he took. Consider this a new headcanon of mine.
