Guys, once again for the LITT au…

[a-wins-a-win]

And in the moonlight and the haze of pot brownies and unconsecrated wine Matt looked so pretty and so sad that Peter was tempted to fuck him right then and there. If he was going to hell, he might as well go all the way.

what kind of patt meter fan would i be if i didn't take a stab at an alternate way for AYT? to play out? -- no aphrodisiac up now on ao3

[hearmyvoicee]

labyrinth, taylor swift-Jason and Ivy

the archer, taylor swift-Peter

The Wasp (2024): The Sting is in the Tale

The 2024 British film The Wasp switches gears effortlessly proving that the sting is in the tale. Morgan Lloyd Malcolm adapted this screen play from the play she wrote. Guillem Morales directs the thriller and it stands to become my new favorite of 2024. The Main Cast Naomie Harris is Heather. Natalie Dormer is Carla. Dominic Allburn is Simon. Olivia Juno Cleverley is young Carla. Leah…

mecore actually- the differences are insane, but they’re so fascinating to me more than anything.

i will one day get around to writing the demo / b;apo / B:TM Jason McConnell comparative essay I swear - because that kid goes from tragic gay poet to traumatised gay golden boy to violently mentally ill* gay basketball player and somehow the core of his story arc remains pretty consistent *not that Jason as a character hasn’t always been severely mentally ill, there’s just a much stronger undercurrent of violence with B:TM’s characterisation of him

the merging of Nadia & Lucas’ characters is wild to me - it does both of them and both of their significance in the Pop Opera a massive disservice, and it takes away from Jason’s character (& Ivy’s to an extent) to have Nadia exist the way she does. and it also makes me sad because there is an opportunity for such an interesting McConnell sibling dynamic that the show just doesn’t find time or recourse to focus on

emo puppy dog matt lloyd <\3 it’s sooo funny but it’s such a wild way to play him. that and the actual real vindictiveness throws me off sometimes. it’s not entirely nonsensical, and it is the funnest character design prompt ever, but I do feel like it takes away some of that intensity in him & Jason’s rivalry when they don’t have as much in common as they do in b;apo

every single day i lament the twinkification of Peter Simmonds - and while I do have to give credit to B:TM for making him such A Character, it is as you say a radically different characterisation from b;apo’s portrayal of him . and semi-related it drives me crazy that B:TM cut out Claire as a character entirely, when she was so instrumental in Peter’s development & backstory and such in both the Pop Opera and the demo tracks

everyone is So Fucking Mean in Bare : The Musical and it makes me sad :((

[and it also makes me question why they’d ALL be at Ivy’s party in the first place, when they all seem to so much exist in separate bubbles throughout the rest of their lives]

I just can't get over how different Bare: a pop opera and Bare the musical are? Like different songs, different people singing songs, different plotlines, radically different characterisations. It's like two completely independent adaptions of the same story.

Like what is this? Chess?

I was about to make fun of prev's tag because Meghan Lloyd died in September when the show starts in January and so she's never cast and doesn't even haunt the narrative...but then I remembered I wrote a whole essay about the psychological impact of Peter Chaily, Sr. who is also always offstage and never cast, and then I also have three different versions of Patricia Javelina Mary Simmonds (Peter, Jr.'s younger sister) who doesn't even exist and isn't even mentioned in the final version of the show.

Fuuuck yes dude its reading too much into a side character time

@kentucky-fried-goth-attire and I made a bapo discord..

[a-wins-a-win]

i am supremely indecisive and need direction, so I’m putting this one to a tumblr poll ;

summaries and such under the readmore - feel free to send asks for more info <3

just to be clear, no matter the poll results i will be working on-and-off on smaller fics + my essays* and such anyway - the option is just there if people would be more interested in having shorter/less involved works more often, rather than just a scattering of one-shots for however long it takes me to wrangle a Project to somewhere i'm happy with to share it. * the essays are happening and will be happening, independently of whatever ends up happening with my fic writing, as well. it will again just boil down to focus and available research/writing time.

anyway! onto the Project summaries ;

forgive and forget (it’s all coming back to me now)

Jason was pretty certain he'd just end up working for his father in the end, but Ivy had managed to convince him that it was worth at least trying to find his work experience somewhere else. He had basically expected the crappy intern jobs - coffee runs, sorting files, and generally trailing after competent employees like some kind of lost puppy. What he hadn't expected, however, was for Peter goddamn Simmonds to have landed a co-op position at the same company.

post-canon canon divergence

eventual mcsimmonds

ivy is a major character too, i promise she gets her own b-plots

background lucadia

messy confusing feelings + cheating subplots

something stupid (like i love you)

A few days. Somehow, letting Lucas crash on Matt's couch for a few days turned into buying Lucas new clothes, turned into cleaning him up and helping with the job search. Which then turned into Matt making Lucas dinner and letting Lucas make him dinner in return, until dinner was a combined effort and light-hearted arguments about organizational systems. And it wasn't until their closets blurred together and Lucas started helping to pick out new drinking glasses that either of them realised they'd be happy if a few days lasted forever.

post-canon lucatt

roommates to friends to lovers type beat

in many ways they've grown and changed, in many ways they haven't

of course there's a lot of tension in the in-between stage where they're trying to figure out how to incorporate into each other's lives again, but eventually they end up falling into a cute domestic routine

there's something there in lucas and matt forgiving each other for the roles they played in/the ways they contributed to the general disaster that was their senior year (but Jason's suicide in particular)

as close to heaven as i’ll get

There wasn't a doubt in anyone's mind that Jason McConnell would do well at Notre Dame - 5 generations of top-level vampire hunters had come before him (and his father was quite insistent that AFTER him would come 5 more). The only thing that stood in his way was an entrance exam requiring a record of field experience.

Peter Simmonds understood the importance of following the rules imposed by the coven, really he did. But even so - something about the bright spots the stained glass windows of the church reflected onto the wet ground drew him in.

mcsimmonds vampire AU

Twilight/Supernatural-esque rural vibes + Southern Gothic inspiration

i get to fuck around with vampire folklore and religious imagery! and who doesn't love that?

a big chunk of inspiration for it was the concept of Peter seeing so much like. peace and community and what have you in this idea of the church involvement that he so desperately wants to be a part of, played against Jason's so desperately wanting to get out of it. if you see the vision.

just because [i’m] pretty

Over the years Ivy Robinson had been called a lot of things. Cutie, Angel, Pretty Baby, Slut, Whore, Bitch. Mostly she tried not to hold onto them too tight, not to think too deeply about how they felt in her mouth as she studied herself in the mirror. But occasionally something would stick. She just hadn't expected that something to be 'boyish'.

gay trans man ivy <3

a lot of times he is trying to explore/come to terms with himself through his art

although his romantic + sexual attraction to boys is obviously a cornerstone of his identity there'd also be largely platonic [& antagonistic & familial] relationship focuses

touch tank

A dramatic part of Peter wanted to let himself be bitter and jaded about his parents divorce, like every other seventeen-year-old main character. But the more sensible part of him knew that was unfair, and unrealistic - especially when it had led him to some of the prettiest, most interesting boys he had ever met.

good catholics <3 [my matt/peter/jason triad]

merfolk au! wherein jason is merfolk at the other two are not

set in a cliche small costal town , lots of cute vibes + also costal weather, because i love the rain

silly little subplots involving the other characters occur around the main story as well

[hearmyvoicee]

sorry (also ik it’s not so cut and dry he hurt a lot of people too this is just a trend🫶)
