🔗 which queer as folk (2000) character are you?

so one day, aka a week ago, my friend liz and i decided to make our own qaf uquiz… which took approximately way too many fxcking hours to think about, and actually make. because we wanted it to be as fun, but as in-character as possible, and believe me… our goal was achieved. we're damn proud of it.

so here it is! please take it, i don't know? (i guess i should warn you it features taylor swift, one direction, weed, and netflix questions… amongst others.) it's fun! it's cool!

AND LET ME KNOW YOUR RESULTS!!!

for the record, liz, scott lowell and myself are all justin kinnies. proof:

Character themed playlists

| Death Note

Based on vibes. Glad i vibe with several genres to be able to make these accurate.

•Florence & the Machine - Seven Devils (yes indeed, i'm goth.)

Beyond Birthday

•The Scott Bradlee’s postmodern jukebox ft. Haley Reinhart - Seven Nation Army

•Sin Shake Sin - Lunatics And Slaves

•Glass Animals - Flip

•The Neighborhood - Wires

•Doja Cat - Rules (slowed) (just because he'd definitely show up to Any inviation in lil nas x-style cowboy fit...Unprovoked.)

Jeepers Creepers in the foot note for goofs and gaffes

_

Naomi Misora

•The Pretty Reckless - Why'd You Bring A Shotgun To The Party

•Alexander Rybak - Leave Me Alone (slowed)

•Brian Jonestown Massacre - Anemone

•*insert french tango about telling an admirer she's a sassy aroace kinda gal*

_

Mello

•Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus

•The Unlikely Candidates - Violence (might be a bit insensitive toward the depth of his character to put this here but i sorta like the vibe for him)

•Arctic Monkeys- Teddy Picker (probably reflects Mello's view better than Near's)

That being said, feel free to give some Mello themed song recommendations in comments, asks etc.

_

Near

•Glass Animals - Walla Walla

•Magdalena Bay - Dream Catching

•Magdalena Bay - Secrets (your fire) (actually fits L a lot better but i don't have the balls)

•Magdalena Bay - How to Get Physical (sped up)

•Arctic Monkeys - D is for Dangerous

_

A

•LSD - Genius (sped up)

•Glass Animals - Wyrd

•Melanie Martinez - Pity Party

•Penelope Scott - Rät

•MGMT - Little Dark Age

You've seen my art of him. "A" might stand for "asset" or "attempt" but it also stands for "altruistic asshole running on anti-depressants"

Sorry, don't think I could do Matt justice, but check out Person In The Mirror (Naethan Apollo) & Devil's Advocate (The Neighborhood) as a coy suggestion. The more sassy sped up & slowed down versions respectively might make this choice feel more tactful..

Backstreet Boys & Spice Girls: Side by Side (part 1: Members)

after months and months of delay, here it is, my first of many posts about Backstreet Boys and Spice Girls parallels!

as i have been mentioning in my past posts, one of the things that inspired me to make this is that interview of the Boys on DWTS All Access. i was surprised by the resemblance of both groups (individually and as a unit) once i thought about it. since then, the two groups have become somewhat synonymous to me. the parallels are astounding (as you can see here and in my future posts). or maybe  it’s just me hahaha!

let’s begin!

[i’m gonna have to ask karma to get right back at ya (ha i made a pun out of a Spice Girls song) if you’re gonna remove the text and reblog only the photos.] [also, please correct me if i’m wrong on some of the info hehe]

Kevin Richardson & Victoria Beckham

Full Names: Kevin Scott Richardson, Victoria Caroline Beckham

Ship Name/s: Posh & Kev, BeckhamSon/RichHam(?)

underrated vocals. like, seriously. i can totally see them onstage, in a musical (ah, Kevin did Chicago already, he played Billy Flynn; and Victoria wanted to be in Cats, but sadly she never ventured into music again since she got into the fashion world). they would totally have the-model-and-the-fashion-designer dynamic (Kevin was a Versace model before, in case you don’t know)

Howie Dorough & Geri Halliwell

Full Names: Howard Dwaine Dorough, Geraldine Estelle Halliwell

Ship Name/s: Sweet Ginger, DoroughWell/HalliRough(?)

underrated vocals, pt. 2 (T_T) Howie was mistaken when he said that Geri’s ‘got a bit of Latina in her’. she is actually half Spanish. i seriously think Howie ghost-wrote Spanish Eyes in dedication to her, and Geri wrote Mi Chico Latino for him (’cause Howie has Puerto Rican blood in him). i’m kidding, obviously. (will write a fanfic about this *wink wink*)

AJ McLean & Mel B

Full Names: Alexander James McLean, Melanie Janine Brown

Ship Name/s: Scary No Name, McBrown/BrowLean(?)

crazy hairstyles. their signature laughs (Wannabe & Larger than Life, y’all) (will be making an audio edit of this LOL). people’s first impression of them: both have intimidating personalities, mainly because they’re not afraid to speak out their minds about things. but deep inside they’re actually warm-hearted and are fierce protectors of their loved ones. plus, their children are all girls. i made a collage of them hugging one of their daughters, and oh my god, my heart.

Brian Littrell & Mel C

Full Names: Brian Thomas Littrell, Melanie Jayne Chisholm

Ship Name/s: Sporty Rok, LittHolm/ChisTrell(?)

athletic? check. does ad libs on almost every single performance? check. goofy and funny? check. i can actually envision a duet between these two. it would be THE BOMB. also, i can see them jumping around and up and down the stage, competing on who can hold the longest headstand, among other crazy antics. fun fact: both have a cross tattoo on their left arm ;)

Nick Carter & Emma Bunton

Full Names: Nickolas Gene Carter, Emma Lee Bunton

Ship Name/s: Baby Frack, CarTon/BunTer(?)

who doesn’t have a soft spot for these blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauties? just last year, they were both judges on a TV show called Boy Band. vocally speaking, i think they both underwent change the most, their vocal range has widened as they grew older, which is admirable. perhaps the most popular Backstreet Spice ship! [i actually know someone who ships them so much that she watched Boy Band just to see the two of them interact lmao] :)))

let me know if you have comments or suggestions for my future posts!

Secret Martin ship.... Melanie's friend Andy? Is that anything?

you know what, i’m actually going to cave and throw you guys a bone: andy IS something! but only short-term interest number one, because martin is a chad and my timeline goes a while before the endgame kicks in. sometimes casual nice things happen before the epic tragic romance! and we love that for him. we love this a little less for melanie because she’s going to have to deal with it since she lives with them now 😂

i’m going to concisely list the other guesses under the cut.

here’s all the old asks, but i’m re-typing them easier to read.

[REDACTED] (15) - PEOPLE DID GUESS HIM! but i am not telling<3

mike crew (5) - a very popular guess but nope! he does not give enough of a shit to date anybody lettuce bee reel.

oliver (3) - counting a guess on ao3! nope. not rowdy enough.

...martin (2) - self love... i’m amused enough by this one to keep it especially since this whole thing happened before he talked to Martin 2.0 in season 5 LMFAO. G-D... you may not be PBR prophets but you ARE prophets nonetheless.

jared hopworth (2)

graham folger (2)

timothy hodge (3) - got another guess for him after he showed up in the text itself which makes SENSE now that he’s got more of a personality but nope, that’s actually what disqualifies him! secret man shows up in the next chapter.

jordan kennedy (2)

jan kilbride (2)

anatomy students/john doe (2)

brian the spider guy (2)

andre rameo (2) - homophobic vase guy! poor dude. no new husband for you, or at least not this one

georgie’s shopska salad guy (1) - props for this one ngl

benoit the beetle guy (1)

an OC of mine (1)

gerry (1) - the ACTUAL initial reason for there being a new ship is that i Cannot ship him with gerry here

tim (1) - the ship is literally gerry/tim, and thus, no,

jon (1) - it would not be a secret if it was jon! it’d also be ooc and not good for them in the same way as it is in canon, here. jon’s got plenty else going on, too! i will tell you that they hit it off as friends a lot faster here since jon has No actual reason to split the way he did in canon. fun!

sasha (1) - he is a whole entire homogay

salesa (1) - too old don’t guess old people please :’-(

joshua guillespe (1)

evan lukas (1)

dominic swain (1)

breekon OR hope (1) - no! he is not a homewrecker! the accusation...

one of the fucking mechanisms (1) - why would i ever,

sergey ushanka (1) - by far the wildest one

michael shelley/distortion (1) - absolutely the unholy fuck not<3

alfred grifter (1) - my g-d jhbkn

carlos vittery (1)

diego molina (1) - :-(

raymond fielding (1) - :-(

*andy cain (1) - DING DING! you got 1/2 of martin’s intended boytoys. their relationship is pretty much limited to casual sex and acquaintanceship before it ends.

mateo james (2) - our OC for sasha’s brother. adorable but nope!

sebastian skinner (1)

ethan taylor (1) - guy from lost in the crowd apparently

pharos (1) - nope! that breaks the “no gerry x martin” rule and also they do not see eye to eye enough to even be friends, honestly

daniel rawlings (1)

john fellows (1) - literally said “whom.” OH other anglerfish victim okay coolcool yeah no i forgot he existed

if you really want to keep guessing, i might not publish/will just update the asks & this one! i certainly won’t publish if you guess correctly. even if you guess, you won’t be able to predict my actual PLANS for them, so it’s fine, but i still want it to surprise as many people as possible! i’m still interested in seeing if anyone gets it right after the fact, but i'm going to once again remind you of the hints i already gave:

not a one off statement giver

not a woman

not an OLD GUY

a little bit monster-y

edit! people have asked for more conditions and so it’s also:

someone who IS in a statement somewhere

someone mentioned in my stuff before

Title: Superscript WC: 1100 Episode: Demons (4 x 06)

When it comes to the murder of Jack Sinclair—when it comes to all the wrangling over the nonsensical idea that there are ghosts in the world that require wrangling—what she is doing is perfectly sensible. She, as usual, is doing her job. What he is doing is . . . kind of extra, even for him. She wonders what that’s about.

She can only wonder about it part time. She does, after all, have a murder to solve. And not only is she clearly not going to get any useful help from him on that front, he has managed to turn one of her actual detectives to the dark side. Ryan, whom she suspects of getting a sizable under-the-table allowance from Dad for obsequious supporting roles played and annoying services rendered, has fully defected to Team Supernatural. Add to that—or subtract, rather—the time that Esposito is spending whining about little brother getting to play Ghost Hooky, and Team Rational is not operating at fully capacity.

And still, she siphons off a little focus to wonder why he’s so intent on horror movie explanations—and why she’s feeling a little sharp about that. The two go together, the way his mood and her mood so often do, don’t they?

These, at least, are all in good fun. or they’re mostly in good fun. He stays up all night writing a ghost story on the flip side of her murder board, and she rolls her eyes about it. She plays the decidedly not obsequious role of the Fun Police, as though she doesn’t find it endearing when he knows that he’s in for torture—he knows that there is a back-to-reality bitch slap in his near future—but he can’t contain his excitement.

This, she thinks, goes beyond that dynamic, though. She could write it off to just him and the time of year. She could take the fact of him staying up all night—alone, in the precinct—to be this year’s wandering through a graveyard in suspenders. But it seems like it might be a little extra.

For one thing, the shit gets real when it turns out that he’s drunk her coffee—and his coffee, and what? Did he wander into the street before dawn in some kind of fugue state to get them? Then it gets very real indeed when he fails to fulfill his sacred vow to make her a replacement coffee before he and his favorite son head off in the Mystery Machine to pointlessly interview the former tenants who were credulous enough to get scared off from the very unhaunted McLaren house.

That whole incident, she supposes, puts caffeine deprivation on the table as an explanation. It’s possible that there’s nothing extra here in reality, it just looks that way through the glare of her ocular headache. But that explanation doesn’t satisfy once she has finally bent the damnable cappuccino machine to her will.

He is not just stumbling into the bitch slap with his enthusiasm for the supernatural. He is courting the bitch slap. He is sassing her about being too busy solving her murder to follow-up on the lead his Ghost Hooky date with Ryan yielded and implying—actually implying—that he’d rather hop right back into the Mystery Machine than ride with her to take down a grifter of interest in the murder of their mountebank. He is showing up, unannounced, on her doorstep to spout jargon and smugly ask how her solo canvas under the Team Rational banner went.

It is all very definitely extra, so she turns around and puts a little extra in her own push back. She snickers about proton packs and makes him beg before she says it—I ain’t afraid of no ghosts. She shoots him the mother of all smug looks when Detective Smith wonders what kind of jackass would buy the demon storyline that Matt Benton apparently tried to sell. And even as she delivers shot after shot, she can’t help wondering why it is they’re pushing and pulling a little more forcefully than usual.

The demon storyline, much as she’s loath to admit it, knocks something loose for her. The demon storyline is where they—against all odds—intersect, she in her quest for mundane, completely off-this-world explanations, he with the ghost story he’s writing on the fly.

Matt Benton is—or was, as it turns out—a demon. They both have to look away from the photos of Melanie that tumble out of the domestic complaint file they dig up. They both find the floor in Pete Benton’s office suddenly fascinating as the man’s voice cracks and he doesn’t know whether to be relieved or horrified that his brother did not, as he has believed all these years, brutally murder the woman he himself had once loved.

Addison Smith is a demon. A man charged with protecting people—a man who had seen in the flesh what the two of them have to look away from in two infinitely removed dimensions—stands there snarling about everyone else’s guilt. He stands there in the middle of that hideous, patterned floor that has so recently been rendered all the more awful with the wild, violent spray of Jack Sinclair’s blood, and would have the world believe that everyone else is at fault.

It’s pure evil. It’s the devil’s handiwork they’re standing on now, they’ve been wandering through lately, from Brian Hayes, impaled on a sculpture, to the carelessly brutal disposal of Jane Herzfeld’s body, from Tyler Faris, split in two, to the Lester Hamilton-less pool of Lester Hamilton’s blood—it’s a lot.

It’s a lot on top of everything that isn’t a crime scene, isn’t a mystery to puzzle out, him leading with wild theories, her tugging them back to earth. It’s a lot, and this—his push and pull, his sass and her bitch slap—is how they cope together.

And in the end, she’ll take the finishing touches he puts on his ghost story. Matt Benton was a demon. Addison Smith is a demon. Those are facts from Team Rational and they suck badly enough that she’s willing to play Ghost Hooky. with him.

She’s willing to agree that Jack Sinclair very well might have nudged some things on this mortal plane to give them an assist when they most needed it. Jack Sinclair very well might have gotten something like justice for himself from beyond the grave.

Everything has sucked lately. Everything has extra sucked. So just this once, she’s Team Supernatural.

A/N: Racing against the lack of morphousness in my old, constantly crashing laptop at 4 AM. Like you do. There is no morphousness in this ghost story.
