how did you first get into Jeremy Jordan
good question—and one i very recently asked myself when the inevitable "how did i become this person" reflection happened 🫣.
i think there were many different factors (most of them not that good) that caused me to dive into obsessive mode so hard (and so quickly)—and it's definitely a "i see it now, but i couldn't back then" kind of situation. however, i'll spare you from those details XD.
the simple story is that, similar to you, i watched tangled the series and instantly fell in love with varian.
i love him
funnily enough, varian was the reason i started watching the show to begin with (coupled with the fact that i love tangled, and rapunzel, and eugene, and pascal, and max, and- 😆). i actually listened to the tts songs before watching the show 🫣 because my sister had gotten hooked on it years before. however, i only listened to the songs with mandy moore and zachary levi 🫣🫣 (cause i was like "who are these other random people, i want rapunzel and eugene"). then one day i listened to "through it all," in which varian has one line (plus an "eh" which i love now, but couldn't tell was him when i first listened XD)—and i was instantly just like: who's that.
have i listened to this one line on loop? you bet.
so i started watching the show—and loved varian from episode one—so naturally, i decide to look up the voice actor. it was jeremy....surprise. except...i didn't actually become obsessed right then. if anything, i was a little weirded out that this tiny boy was voiced by a 30-something year old man 😂 (but it's voice acting, so i was just like: wow, he did a great job 🤩...i'm going to go resume loving varian).
okay and then he sang. i knew he was good from his one line in "through it all", but wOW. adfasjkjaskfjd, on repeat forever and ever.
yes he was
that's not when i became (jeremy) obsessed either XD.
okay...and then a bunch of life stuff/circumstances kind of collided, and let's just say that i was feeling extremely lonely while also struggling with grief. i think there was about a two week period of this before i started actually bouncing back, and i had just reached the end of s1. now tts was doing a good job with bringing much needed happiness in my life, but...s2 had a very noticeable varian-shaped hole in it 😒.
that's when i turned to jeremy jordan youtube. it started off (the first hour) pretty mild—just some of his disney medleys, or the greatest showman video, or just the ones with millions of views—but it very quickly turned into a full out jeremy jordan youtube spiral™️ XD.
i must put this in your face again
i think in part, i latched on so quickly because jeremy and i are actually very similar people in general. i think at the point of extreme change that i was in at the time, it was just nice to "know" someone who was like me—and it definitely helped that there was easy access to extensive jj content. on a slightly different note, this is absolutely the reasoning behind the fact that if i had a chance to see jeremy live, i would choose one of his concerts over, say, gatsby—i am obsessed with jeremy jordan as jeremy jordan XD (hello akp).
literally me (i grew up in california by the way XD)
anyways, fast forward ~3 months, and i joined tumblr 😆...and we all know what happened after that. honestly, not a bad decision in my mind (at least so far), despite being very anti-social media my whole life. i've gotten to chat and obsessively geek out with so many great people, and i'm just so grateful for that 💕.
i've still only watched s1 of supergirl...and many youtube clips

Ask game, blossoming romance - picking a leaf/flower petal out of their hair or brushing dirt off of their face!
blossoming romance || still accepting prompts!
Thanks to the first decent headlines in weeks, their papers sold abnormally quickly, giving them ample time to relax by early afternoon.
Jack and David find a shady tree to relax under, watching as Les runs around with other kids his age. There's a gentle breeze that ruffles through their hair, carrying the laughter of children with it.
The wind shakes loose some leaves from the tree above them, drifting down on them.
Jack reaches over, pulling a leaf out of David's curls with a soft smile on his face. "You got a little something..."
"Thanks, Jackie."
They're impossibly close now, closer than they should be in public, but David can't really find it in himself to care at the moment. His eyes drift down to Jack's lips, then back up to his eyes, trying to parse out the emotion he sees there.
He moves to lean in, audience be damned, when Les yells his name.
They pull apart, startled, expecting Les to be hurt, but instead he's standing across the park with his hands on his hips, expectant.
With a laugh, they get up to go entertain Les, confident that they'll pick it up later in private.

pairing: stepdad!soft!rafe x mom!reader
detailed summary: You weren’t living such a great life. Your husband had turned his back towards you and was drowned in his addiction to drugs, not giving any mind to what’s happening in the world around him. You knew you couldn’t stay with him, and let him continue ruining your life. So at the next moment you get, you free yourself from him and get a divorce, finally having a chance to breathe.
You were now alone with your toddler, and you knew you had to give her a life which seems perfect even without her father. She became your best friend, your whole world, your favorite person ever. Sage was a spitting image of you, a little enthusiastic kid but very clear at heart.
As much as you tried, you always felt the lack of another parent in Sage’s life. Even though she never showed it, a big smile always on her face as she was always playing around your house, you knew it was best she had two loving parents. But you were so busy with your job, and taking care of her, you never had a chance to go out on your own.
But then, almost like a hurricane, Rafe Cameron walked into your life. He occupied your mind like nothing else, and as you saw Sage loving his company more and more, you fell more for him, and he was very lovingly married into your family.
You never knew love can come knocking down your door at such odd times, when you had your child and no one seemed to take interest in you. But Rafe did. He loved you both with his entire heart, and changed your entire perspective on love.
This is the story of finding comfort and love when it seems the world has stopped spinning, when you feel you’re worthless, and you start to limit your own experiences. It’s about letting your door open for someone at a stage in life when it’s all too risky. It’s about trust, and letting yourself free from the chains you’ve so hurtfully wound yourself in.

it’s literally so important to me to have Michael Ahomka-Lindsay as Jack in uksies
I’m watching uksies rn, just paused at the end of Santa Fe to write this post.
My brother and me are biracial, my brother much more obviously so than myself. He’s generally viewed as Black (I’m generally viewed as what the heck).
my brother came into the room (he had heard the newsies music, he knew I was watching newsies) and he went “who’s that?” And I said, “that’s Jack.”
So he just looks for a second and then goes, “I didn’t know he could be Black.” I nodded and was like Yk yeah isn’t it awesome and he said (this is the part that gets me) “it’s almost kinda weird because I’m so used to seeing White people in shows that I forget that Black people can be in them.”
Representation is so important, you don’t even realize. Me and my brother, ESPECIALLY my awesome adorable little brother, have faced a good deal of racism. And it’s so magical to see someone like you, even if not exactly, onstage and onscreen. To know that no matter what people say to you you can still make it. You can still do great things. People like you exist and always have.
it’s so crazy important to me that there’s that.
