WHAT YOU AND I HAVE MAKES ME FREE

just finished reading Cooperative Gameplay by @gallavichy which is a must for the shameless/gallavich fandom I suppose, and fuck! that was good.

and I'm just. so happy to be able to read such a good work by someone so passionate about their craft. I mean, Gray did so much research to properly describe videogames and how ged and university application work and mental ilness and places and tourist points and the most banal things too, and their mannerisms! the way every fucking twitter user ian follows has a consistent personality throughout all the fucking +240k words its insane! she included the clothes they were wearing and made whole playlists for a fanfic, that's so fucking nice.

it's just so nice to feel how much she was into it, you know? more than a great writing and story and characters, it was so nice to read cause there was so much feeling to it, all the time. makes me feel warm inside. smiled so big reading it and cried too! i just had to put it out here.

Mickey is definitely a rock kinda guy. From classic rock like the greats; Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Ac/dc, Bob Seager ect. To heavy metal, and even punk when the mood arises.

He doesn’t ‘ hate ‘ other genre’s of music. Pop, Rap, Hip-hop ect. But if he’s playing music while doing something its 100% rock. Unless Ian’s around and changes it.

Ian is most definitely a pop/hip-hop guy. More dance friendly.

loved this prompt by @themilkoviches !! i had so many ideas but i couldn’t stop thinking about this one so enjoy! @galladrabbles

PROMPT: ROCK BAND

-

Ian enters his house to loud banging coming from the kitchen. Mickey's voice is soft over the loud noises and Ian walks curiously over to see what's making noise. 

He stops in the doorway and takes in the scene in front of him.

Mickey's sitting on the floor, phone in hand as their 3 year old hits laid out pots with a wooden spoon.

"You're a natural" Mickey says with a grin "Gonna tour the world in a famous rock band or some shit"

Mickey stops filming and starts tapping away on his phone. 

Ians phone buzzes in his pocket.

Galladrabbles: Rock Band

Thank you to @themilkoviches for this fantastic @galladrabbles prompt! I had an idea similar to this one for a Kinktober fic but then life happened, fortunately it also works for this week's drabble.

----

"Band's playing that song you like," Ian observes, halting his movements. "Listen."

Mickey blinks at him, eyes colder than the wall behind his back.

"Don't care, keep dickin'," he mutters, hands holding onto the scaffolding beam above him, legs locked around Ian's waist.

Ian grabs his ass tighter and speeds up, pressed mouths muffling their noises before Ian's moan turns into a hum, making Mickey break away.

"You fuckin' singing right now?"

"No," Ian lies, a shared laugh escaping them.

They end up belting the tune in the car later, Mickey smirking as he adds it to their 'Bangathon' playlist.

Galladrabbles - wanna be rock band 🥁🎸

So I can still post this weeks @galladrabbles if next weeks prompt hasn't been post yet right...

--- --- --- --

"New neighbors moved in yesterday"

"Yeah like I didn’t see em dragging in boxes all dam day"

"How about all that music equipment those teenagers carried in"

"That’s what I want living next door to us, a stupid wanna be rock band"

Loud thumping starts vibrating, the kind you feel in your chest

Then a guitar starts a quick rhythm

Mickey shoots his husband an annoyed I told you so look

Ian squirms for a moment, thinking

Then a mischievous look crosses his face

"Wanna see if we can be louder"

Now that’s a plan Mickey’s onboard with

"Fuck Yeah"

I hated the way the writers had Mickey pop off so casually about Ian’s mental illness in the Hall of Shame episode . Mickey not perfect, Ian either but wow that below the belt comment always bugged me . I wondered if it had an effect on Ian after .

So I rewrote it, angst with Gallavich doing what they do best , finding their way back to each other .

No idea where this came from except last night had an epic oops and lost a final chapter ( it was sooo good) poof no more chapter 🤬

So I pouted , read other great writers and about 11 pm this cropped up .

For all of you so damn good at angst , tipping my hat cause this is mildly angsty and I was just a snot fest typing it out🥹

Ian Dury & The Blockheads I Want To Be Straight

[fictionalcharactersaremypassion]

Ian: How do you feel about children? Mickey: They're okay, I guess. If I saw one I wouldn't throw a rock at it Ian: ....Why would you throw a rock at a child? Mickey: I just said I wouldn't

These scenes always make me think about Fionas and Frank's relationship pre s1 so I'm gonna talk about it.

The way she flinches and makes herself as small as possible HURTS me.

I think its important to put that she doesn't have the same reaction when men she doesn't know shout at her. Fiona can confidently get into confrontations with strangers. This is why I link it back to Frank. Fiona isn't scared cause she being screamed at its because someone she loves and cares about is doing it.

Whenever Frank's physical abuse is brought up, people almost always go to Ian as an example as he's the one who we see it happen to most. This is fine, but I think because Ian is such a clear representation, people often don't think about the other siblings.

Frank was likely much more violent towards fiona than we see in the show. I have a few reasons for thinking this.

First would ofc be the way she acts in these scenes. She has grown up trying to hide away from Frank's violent behaviour. She knows how these things start, and it's normally with shouting. In my experience, people don't go straight to hitting. They will throw things at the other side of the room, then it's in ur direction but not quite at you. Then It's screaming at someone in their personal space and punching near their head. Fiona had to deal with that where the others didn't. I'm not saying one or the other is worse, but they are different experiences. Fiona didn't know when Frank would finally snap and actually hurt her. Not knowing is a whole different fear. This explains why her brothers screaming makes her so scared.

Second is that fiona was younger and not able to defend herself. Frank didn't face any consequences for his actions. Who was going to stop him when fiona was meant to be the one in charge ? Frank is always less violent towards the youngest kids, like how he hits Ian but not Debbie or Carl in the early seasons, but once Debbie is older, he's violent with her too. Fiona is the oldest, meaning there was no other option than to take his anger out on her. As they all get older, fiona is able to stand up for herself. This reminds me of the "never hit my kid again" scene. The way she talks to Frank so confidently in this scene makes me think she has a long history of standing up to him.

We all know Frank favourite is Fiona. This means he was more comfortable hitting her. Similar to the way mickey is Terry's favourite, Frank's higher expectations of Fiona lead to her disappointing him more. As fiona gets older and her need for his love seems to die down (like debbies), Frank starts to resent her. Fiona is supposed to be a daddies girl. She's meant to love him even more than he does her, but she doesn't anymore. Frank is her dad. He doesn't act like it. Fiona acts out to desperately try to make him act like a dad. Instead of her putting pillows under his head, making him dinner alongside her siblings, she's distant and rude. This just ends up making him scream and punch more.

Now fiona is grown. She's 21 and almost never the target of Frank's violence, but she's still trying to protect her siblings from him. A few years passed, and now her brothers are grown. The boys she raised, protected and loved, the ones who are meant to be her rocks, are screaming at her. In her face the same way Frank, the man who was supposed to raise and love her, did. She is scared in the same way she was when she was 5 years old. She doesn't know if or when she's gonna be hit.

I think fionas childhood is something people don't think about in depth enough. Anyway love her forever.
