I think the truth is that everyone in the entire world is confused and nobody understands much of anything at all.

i fucking love i was born for this by alice oseman

its not like her other novels, for one, no tie to heartstopper in any way at all.

but it also doesnt feature perfect people and shows rhat the people arent perfect, yes that happens in her other books, the people aren't perfect, but iwbft characters rnt perfect in a self centered way, almost all of tjem r self centered, especially the two main characters

angel is self centered as she reallt only cares abt the ark, she ignores juliets feelings (and macs but i dont like him) for the ark, she ignores her own feelings for the ark, she ignores everything for the ark and herself, but she tries herself and still tries to treat people nicely when she isnt distracted by the ark

jimmy is self centered, he only cares abt his knife, his grandpa, and himself. he cares more as the book goes on, he does truly care about lister and rowan and his fans, but he doesnt often show it. and he acts vry self centered smtms, like when lister opened up to him abt being groomed and people not respecting him and him being used, jimmy asks why he only told rowan and not him, and ignored wut lister said,

rowan is self centered, he only cares abt his a bliss's failing relationship, the bands success and thats almost it, he doesnt completely respect bliss's feelings in tjeir relationship and refuses to see how it is failing, he doesnt give a shit abt his fans. granted a lot of them are crazy, but he doesnt take the time to acknowledge the ones that rnt and how he wouldn't be in his position of fame without them, he doesnt care how lister feels, or the people trying tk help him

lister is self centered (not as much tho), he doesnt care abt recovering and continues to drink constantly and refuses help when people offer it

juliet is self centered. she invites mac to hang out with her and angle because she decides she should get more time woth him over spending time with her best friend,

mac is self centered. hes a dick, a bitch, and ill fight him

bliss is pretty good, she prioritizes herself, but in a healthy way, and still cares about other people and does wuts best for her health and stability (ie breaking up with rowan)

all of tjem find a way to care about others tho, they all grow, they all realize how bitchy and assholish theyve been in the past, theyre still not perfecr by any fucking means but theyre more caring than they started off and they get their priorities and ideas straightened out, and good cuz they desperately needed too

but these characters r so fucking amazing for that, theres so much thought that goes into the characters and the longer u sit around with their thoughts and tje longer u think abt tjem and their actions, the more complex and cool theu become

fortunately for us, i’m excellent at faking being okay with things, even when inside my brain there is a tiny screaming gnome who is definitely not okay

a different part of my soul heals when i see new iwbft content

[the-incident-on-show-day]

chappell roan songs i think the iwbft characters would listen to

fereshteh/angel - pink pony club- a classic. main character ass song. idk it’s a lil cheesy but i just think she’d like the message!! she would FUCK UP the hot to go dance tho.

bliss - good luck babe or kink is karma!! i’m not saying she’s vengeful but damn if she doesn’t deserve to be 

juliet - super graphic ultra modern girl. yeah i said it. she is through with hyper mega bummer boys!!! she is lip syncing the intro dramatically into a spatula with heart shaped sunglasses!!! she is screaming along to this song in the car bc this is her hot girl summer and she is the moment!!!

jimmy - california!! truly underrated, i love it, he would love it, fame is disappointing i miss my grandad ahh beat. literally somebody come get him ouuuuut!!!

rowan - weird choice (maybe) but kaleidoscope?? he needs some post-breakup crying sessions and he needs them NOW. 

lister - casual.

Absolutely love how Alice Oseman perfectly encapsulated the emotions of fans and fandoms in I Was Born For This :

‘It’s such an interesting concept to think about,’ I say. ‘People think boyband fangirls all just want to kiss the boy-band boys and marry them and live happily ever after. Whereas if you actually asked a lot of fangirls, they probably wouldn’t even say that they had a crush on the boy-band boys. It’s a different sort of love, to be honest. It’s an I’d probably take a bullet for you but I’d probably feel a bit weird if we just started kissing sort of love. Add that to the fact that there’s an extremely high percentage of LGBT+ people in fandom, particularly queer girls, usually because it’s a much more diverse and accepting space than real life, then the percentage of fangirls who are just in it because Lister’s soooo hot is actually quite small. And that’s just one of the many things that outsiders don’t get about fandom.’

I feel a spike of joy in my heart, a stabbing burst of love and happiness that makes me feel like everything’s going to be okay, as long as our boys are in the world.

And people sneer. Sure. I get it. Adults especially. They see all these teenage girls and they think it’s because we’re stupid. They only see the tiny percentage of fans who take it too far – the stalkers – and they think we’re all like that. They think we only love the band because of their looks; they think we only like their music because it’s relatable. They think all of us are girls. They think all of us are straight. They think we’re dumb little girls who spend all our time screaming because we want to marry a musician. They don’t understand half of it. Any of it. How could they? Adults don’t think teenagers can do anything, anyway. But despite everything in the world being terrible, we choose to stand by The Ark. We choose hope, light, joy, friendship, faith, even when our lives aren’t perfect, or exciting, or fun, or special, like the boys from The Ark. I might be a disappointing student, without many close friends, with a life of mediocrity waiting for me back at home – an average degree from an average university, an average job and an average life – but I will always have this. In an otherwise mediocre existence, we choose to feel passion.

and my favourite <3 :

‘Everyone’s normal, really, aren’t they?’ Bliss says. ‘I mean, everyone’s normal, everyone’s weird, everyone’s just trying to deal with their own life and keep calm and carry on. And hold on to something that’ll keep them going.’ ‘Yeah,’ I say. ‘That’s why people get into fandom and bands and stuff. They just want to hold on to something that makes them feel good. Even if it’s all a big lie.’

Ok ok ok that last Angel/Devil Steve and Eddie oneshot was just *chefs kiss* perfect, but what if we take it to the beginning where reader just found out about Steve and Eddie and is refusing to masturbate or have sex cause she feels watched so their sexual tension just builds and they get sooo stressed and horny that Steve and Eddie are just like ��yeah no this isn’t healthy for you let us take care of you” all flirty and hot and stuff.Also clearly this is smutty or just suggestive if not smut

A/N: omg please! i love that they just go yeah no, we quit! we can’t take it anymore! and then just takes matters into their own hands. also, i’m gonna finally use this idea, an image, that’s been floating around in my brain since the beginning of this au…

“Told you this was what you needed, baby,” Eddie groaned harshly as he withdrew his hips, letting you finally suck in a gasp of air once more. 

Bending down to cradle your dreamy face in his hands, his thumb brushed over your messy lips, “look at you,” you jolted in his grasp as Steve’s sharp thrusts rocked your entire body, “fucking putting your own needs aside,” he smeared your saliva into your skin, “basically hurting yourself, just because what, suddenly you can see us?” his mocking tone was accompanied with a playful slap to your cheek, making your eyes roll back.

“Did you really think you’d stay innocent when we now have the ability to touch you?” he straightened up once more, his throbbing cock already tightly wound in his fist, “we both know what a little slut you are,” he kept a hand rooted on the back of your head, as he stroked himself and sporadically tapped the heavy tip against your blushing face, “what a little whore you can be for us now that we have you…”
