Kiraboss AU thoughtsā¦.so manyā¦..
Imagine Diavolo buys Trish one of those kids craft kits for Christmas, like the ones that make a mobile or a scarf or bracelets or some shit, but he quickly realizes oh wait, yeah, bad idea, as she progressively gets more and more frustrated because she canāt even do the simple steps because her clumsy lil hands just will not cooperate. Not to mention the million complicated steps and the executive dysfunction are not best buddies. And Kira tries to help but like father, like daughter and heās struggling just as much as herā¦they both end up exasperated, giving up altogether and watching a movie or something instead because fuck that motor skill bullshit. Diavolo is embarrassed that he picked out something so obviously bad for them and heās taking notes for next time he buys an activity for Trish to try

Thinking of Taz's tattoos and matching ones. There is someone out there who is lucky enough to share one!! Tā¤ļøM š®āšØš although I feel there is more story behind that one.
š®āšØ you know what- to keep myself sane, Iām just going to just take his word and say that one is solely about the play he wrote and acted in š
but hey, if it was a little tattoo of a previous relationship, thatās mega cute š„² I just hope that tat brings him good memories of a good time in his life š¤š¼

idk, i might actually be the one elvis stan that's not riled up over the upcoming priscilla film. as far as it tainting elvis' image goes, over the years i've always come across people who condemned his dynamic w/ priscilla, so this just isn't something new. also, i don't recall him being depicted as a monster in her book?? at times he was loving, gentle, supportive, and remorseful. i think those aspects will be shown.
yeah now that some time has passed since the trailer was released I think I was probably being a little bit dramatic myself in my initial reaction lmaoo. like you mentioned, Elvis and Priscillaās relationship has been under scrutiny for decades, so no matter how frustrating it is, that discourse will never end, I just have to learn how to put up with it š¤§
and while Iām not riled up about the movie anymore, Iām not exactly excited for it either. Iām still just questioning why it needed to be made as I donāt see this film offering any new information that we donāt already know. I saw the trailer in the theater previews when I went to see asteroid city and I have to say it made me weirdly anxious seeing it on the big screen š©
but an anon did send me an ask that said this was the āofficial synopsisā and it made me feel more optimistic for the film
āWhen teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a gentle best friend. Through Priscillaās eyes, Sofia Coppola tells the unseen side of a great American myth in Elvis and Priscillaās long courtship and turbulent marriage, from a German army base to his dream-world estate at Graceland, in this deeply felt and ravishingly detailed portrait of love, fantasy, and fameā
however despite the overall positive things Priscilla has said about Elvis over the years and in her biography, I think after reading her book the average person would walk away with a negative feeling towards Elvis and I can see that being the same with this upcoming movie, even if it shows the gentle and loving side of him
She didnāt exactly shy away from telling his unflattering anecdotes in the book: his infidelities, his temper and quickness to anger, like when he allegedly threw the chair with records on it at her, or when he allegedly hit her in the eye during a pillow fight which resulted in a black eye. and of course saying that he quote āforcefullyā had intercourse with her after she told him she was leaving the marriage
to be fair to Priscilla, she made no allegations of r*pe despite some fans saying she did. however āforcefullyā does imply that it was not consensual on Priscillaās part, even if she didnāt say it explicitly
From my personal interpretation of the event, I could see Elvis being bolder or more āroughā than he had ever been with her as he felt as need to prove himself, and perhaps Priscilla did not expect it as Elvis was normally a very gentle and sensual partner
and like I mentioned while she never claimed it was a r*pe, that hasnāt stopped people from using that quote to say Elvis commited spousal r*pe, which is what most fans take issue with when it comes to her book, therefore I wish she could provide more clarity to dispel any rumors like that
but in this interview she does the say that the incident was āoverstatedā, so if that is true, I hope this film doesnāt have a repeat of the scene in the 1988 āElvis and Meā which was extremely disturbing
Iām very curious to see how these scenes will be shown or if they will be shown at all and I really hope Coppola hasnāt made a film that Elvis haters will celebrate like they have been doing with the trailer
