Beaker: Into The Beakerverse

There’s so much to unpack here:

Pack of Beakers

Goth Beaker

The Beaker snitching and pointing out the photographer

The Beaker that’s about to unload on the photographer

The terminator strut before the ass whooping and you know he’s moving at speed because of the blur

The ominous feeling that you know this is 3 in the morning

my current fixation: the s13 teen trio of the DG

[doyelikehaggis]

going back to my editing roots with this one <3

[doyelikehaggis]

The fact that TDG had a wrestling episode has made me unbelievably happy, I never knew I needed two of my favourite things combined (and they threw in some Bridgerton in the same episode!)

[doyelikehaggis]

Also, the way I’m automatically biased toward Maisie, Brodie and Anne just because they’re scottish 💅🏻

[doyelikehaggis]

Okay so tiktok completely lied when they were mocking the newer seasons of TDG. I went into s12 thinking that there was genuinely an episode where one of those kids turns into a werewolf, but as it turns out, nobody seems to have watched the full episode because Brodie did not, in fact, actually turn into a werewolf, he was just looking after a stray dog.

I’m finally catching up on the 3 new series of TDG, and while the new cast is actually quite fun, I’m still so sad about losing Kyle and Taz, specifically. Kyle had so much potential, and his relationship with Hugo was the sweetest thing ever. And Taz was here for SO long and then she was just gone 😭

not sure if you still are in tsotb fandom, but if u are- what do you think of wolfie/jackie? they didn't have much info on them, but that look she gave him during love all when Mike is spitting some sht about playing a love song tells me it wasn't entirely platonic on Jackie's end at least

have a good day <3

I will ALWAYS be in tsotb fandom, anon! the love for that show (and tbr & tdg) never dies <3 that being said, I don’t remember that scene, so clearly I need a rewatch of tsotb ASAP! I will ship just about anything though, and wolfie/jackie is a cute concept, so I’m on board!

I hope you have a good day, anon! <3

I keep getting the urge to draw some Jacqueline Wilson Universe fanart, like. I have many ideas for Tracy Beaker fanart, and for a few of the other books, but I also know that it would be purely for myself. Am I allowed to be self-indulgent is the real question here?

[doyelikehaggis]

I just finished watching the final episode of The Beaker Girls and I’m so emotional. Mike, Tracy, Justine and Peter all in one room again was too much.

[doyelikehaggis]

Ok your Ben/Lol idea is making me wanting to do ships from the TSOTB and I thank you so much! Any suggestions?

Oooh, okay, I have a few ships from TSOTB!! Ben/Lol is obviously one of them, but my absolute favourite is Tracy and Crash. They just had a really special dynamic and the movie definitely confirmed some not-totally-platonic feelings.

I'm also here for Justine/Rebecca? Like, they could just have a nice enemies to best friends arc but I also like the idea of them finding more in each other, you know? Especially if they don't reconnect until after the events of "The Beaker Girls" when Justine has her baby, but she's raising him alone because Sean Godfrey is just kind of the worst (I know they got back together in the show but I'm still on the fence about their relationship), and they initially bonded over both having to take care of their little siblings, so I'm absolutely here for Rebecca helping Justine co-parent little Steve Jr and then them falling in love with each other and it is okay because they're already living together, raising a kid together, etc.

You will also be prying Lol and Wolfie from my cold, dead grasp because Wolfie was most definitely in love with Lol, which was a big reason for his jealousy over Lol constantly abandoning him to spend time with Bouncer instead. Wolfie would absolutely have been Lol's queer awakening as well, like he's never felt the way he does about him with anyone else, not even when he had a bit of a crush on Louise and Tracy.

Once again, pry Crash and Rio away from me, I dare you. I don't hardcore ship these two in an OTP sense like I do with Lol and Wolfie, but I can see them having a few moments of queer panic around each other, trying a relationship but having it not last long-term but remain really good friends because they're young and just really care about each other. Like when they bonded over their dads and got really close, I feel like they just kind of understood each other in that episode better than any of the others in the DG have understood them? So yeah, I see them having one of those relationships where you get together with your only other queer friend because you think it makes sense, but it's just not really meant to be, but you're still the best of friends.

Tracy and Jackie. Beautiful ship. They love each other deeply. Do I really need to say more? Like, I don't even care if they're romantic, platonic, queerplatonic or what, I just love them, okay?

I will admit, I did genuinely ship Tracy and Wilson. They were just really sweet!! They're probably the only canon ship I'm actually on board with.

I know you didn't ask for my reasons for shipping these characters and were only looking for suggestions but I couldn't help myself ksdjhfksj so I hope you enjoyed this little ramble! I now really want to write so many fics about, like, all of these pairings. I hope this was kind of helpful!
