 tearfully confessing in a lengthy text, too scared to do so in person just in case this all goes horribly wrong and any Carrie ship of your choosing?

"You hit send, didn't you?"

Carrie levels Kayla with a look that's almost impressively stone-faced, aside from the flush that dusts her cheeks and the tears that shimmer in her eyes.

She takes a long sip of her mimosa.

Kayla sighs, setting her own freshly made mimosa on her coffee table. She joins Carrie on the couch and pats her arm.

"Babe. Give me your phone."

"Or," Carrie says slowly, fixing her eyes on the fruit platter Kayla had preemptively made after the latest updates following Julie's tour, "we could go for a little drive and throw my phone into the sea."

Kayla rolls her eyes. "Just let me see."

"No. I'm never being vulnerable again."

What she's being is ridiculous, but Kayla supposes she gets a pass after pining for at least twelve years, and for growing enough as a person to be vulnerable at all.

Still, though. Self-flagellation isn't cute.

"I'm all for you confessing," Kayla soothes, "but you couldn't have waited like, a week? Doesn't she have plans to come see you first thing? That would've been perfect."

Carrie shakes her head. She releases a shaky breath, and a single tear escapes, cutting a glistening path down her cheek.

"I had to do it now. That dedication she did? I don't know who it was for, but I can't get it out of my head. She's always—affected me like that. Always."

Kayla wants to ask if she told her that, but Carrie continues before she can.

"But she could have anyone, you know? Hell, Luke is right there. If you wanted someone headstrong, why not go for him and not the girl who—who tore you down after your mom died? Why not the guy who helped give music back to you?"

"You're not that person anymore," Kayla says softly, "and in her eyes, you've done more than enough to make up for it."

Carrie scoffs. "Yeah, but she's basically a saint. And I had no reason to resent her—"

"You were grieving, too—"

"And it was selfish of me!"

Carrie's crying freely, now, lips trembling.

Kayla can only blink at her, astonished by the rawness of her outburst.

"It was selfish of me," Carrie repeats, furiously scrubbing at her face, "and the way I love her has always been like that."

Kayla gently pries the empty glass out of Carrie's hand. She wraps her in a hug.

"Care. Love is inherently a bit selfish."

Carrie sniffles into Kayla's hair.

"Yeah, well. My hopes aren't high, or anything. Writing it out seemed like the least humiliating way to admit it. I just want us to be able to move past this."

"She does love you in some way, she would never let something like this—"

Carrie's phone trills, and they startle apart.

She's a killer queen~

Kayla snatches it out of Carrie's lap, ignoring her indignant gasp, and dances out of dodge as she goes to snatch it back. She springs off of the couch, making her way around the table as she hits accept.

"Hello?"

Julie hums tentatively. "Kayla?"

"Yeah, I stole Carrie's phone. She wanted to ditch it at the bottom of the Pacific."

Carrie shrieks, chasing Kayla around the coffee table, but Kayla has the home advantage. She's also had less mimosas.

Julie lets out a startled laugh.

"Could you put her on? She'll want to hear what I have to say, I promise."

"Trust me, I'm not the one who needs any reassurance."

Kayla stops dodging Carrie, grinning as she wrestles her phone away with a huff.

"Hey—I know that was a longass text, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't—"

Kayla has to physically clamp her hand over her mouth to keep a squeal from spilling out as Carrie freezes like a startled doe, her brown eyes wide. She blushes.

"E-every word? Oh, that's—no, it wasn’t a perfect reply to your dedication, don't—"

Whatever Julie replies with is sharp, and Carrie's mouth snaps shut. Her eyes are shimmering with tears again, and Kayla takes that as her cue to leave the room.

Needless to say, she knows that Carrie won't be here with her a week from now, and Kayla smiles to herself, sipping at the mimosa she'd whisked off of the table.

THOUGHT OF WILLIE IN A SKIRT AND HAD TO DRAW HIM LIKE WHAT ELSE WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO??

cropped top version under the cut 👀 + bonus Alex

Bonus Alex crying over how pretty his boyfriend is:

[tiriansjewel]

for @jatpficfest round 01: pride

rating: teen and up audiences

pairing: julie molina/carrie wilson

word count: 10,547

summary: “Something had changed. Carrie was treating her differently in the halls, at least in the sense that she wasn’t treating her in any way at all. No, Carrie Wilson had gone completely silent, and when Julie tried to meet her eyes, her gaze would dart away like a deer caught in the headlights. It was freaking her out a little. If she had been so affected by Julie’s performance, why didn’t Carrie just talk to her? Whatever. Julie wasn’t going to try to rebuild a bridge that someone else burned. But still- it was interesting in its own way."

or; the one in which julie and carrie were more than friends before their falling out and finally talk through their issues

go read on AO3!

hm...

[supergraphicultramoderngirl]

julyrie????

yes.

[moonlit-typewriter]

Take a second to imagine Jewish!Reggie collecting rocks bc they’re pretty right??? And sometimes he’ll paint them if they’re nice and smooth. And there’s a reason I’m saying he’s Jewish [aside from it being my favorite hc].

There’s a pretty significant Jewish custom of leaving rocks on headstones instead of flowers when we visit cemeteries. There are several reasons for this:

in biblical times, Jewish people would lay piles of loose stones to indicate where people were buried.

it is thought by some to keep demons and golems away from the deceased person.

Stones cannot wither or die and therefore are used as symbols of legacy and permanent memory. By placing a stone down we show that person's memory will continue living through the people they left behind. (This is the one I personally hold in the most importance)

Now that I’ve explained all that, back to Reggie’s rocks. Imagine Bobby going by Reggie’s house after he was gone and getting there to see his parents working on getting rid of his stuff. Throwing things away, pulling things to sell, etc. and he sees Mr. Peters with a wooden chest in hand, grumbling something about his son keeping random junk. And Bobby recognizes the chest as the place that Reggie kept all his rocks. He’d collected them from everywhere. Gig venues, vacations, the beach, or just the sidewalk outside of school. Bobby really quickly jumps forward right as Mr. Peters is about to dump the rocks into the trash, taking the chest from him. Now obviously Reggie’s dad is like excuse me wtf but Bobby’s just like I’ll take it off your hands Yup cool give it here okay bye. And he leaves the Peters to their purge of the traces of their son.

Later, Bobby goes back to the cemetery, the chest tucked under his arm. He walks up to Reggie's headstone and opens the chest, looking in at all the stones with all their different colors and textures and sizes. Some have dates on them, some have designs painted on them, and some are just as they were found on the ground. And one by one, he takes each stone out of the chest and begins laying them on top of the headstone and he’s talking about each one and where it came from.

“Remember this one Reggie??? It was in Alex’s shoe that one day at the pier and he fell trying to balance on one foot trying to get it out. Or this one??? From the planters right outside the first coffee shop we played, you even put a date on it. And this one I think you literally pulled out of the wall of that one club. Man, I remember how Luke laughed when Alex was freaking out about getting ‘arrested’. And this one you found on the school playground when we were kids. It was so smooth and shiny you had to have it. It really is pretty Reg.”

And once all the rocks have been placed and there are tears on Bobby’s face, he walks away several feet to a nearby tree and picks up a rock that’s sitting at the base of the tree. It's decently sized, plain, and still dusted with dirt. He walks back to Reggie’s grave and weighs the rock in his hand hesitantly before putting the rock down next to the others

“and this one??? This one's from when I wished more than anything you were standing here with me. You. Luke. Alex. All of you. This is from when I needed you next to me”

He closes the chest and leaves the cemetery

My Jatp Fics: Greatest Hits

It's my birthday! It's also roughly the two and a half year anniversary of me joining this Fandom, which feels like a milestone.

As of now, I've written 75 works for Julie and the Phantoms. 75! That's crazy. Sure, I'd say a lot of my strength lies in exploring small ideas, or in condensing a concept into something short, but... 75!

If you're reading this, I love you! There are so many amazing, talented people in this Fandom and to know you even tangentially is a blessing ❤️ I doubt I would've ever written so much if I wasn't surrounded by so many other passionate creatives.

I do have to give a special shout out to the rest of the Rulie canoe crew. ❤️💜 I love y'all and I'm glad we're friends🥰

In celebration of all of the above, I've compiled a top ten list of all of my fics that I'd most recommend, so if you'd like to show my stories some love (and don't want to wade through all 75), here are the hits:

the sunflower series

Reggie/Julie, QPR Reggie & Luke & Julie, Luke & Flynn

This one is about summer love and how it shines. It's about diving headlong into the surf while your friends cheer you on and holding hands with your ghosts. It follows the echoes of those scorching summer feelings, and the sunflowers that sprout in their wake.

Mutual Pining, Fluff, Slice of Life, 33k, Rated T

what if i fall (but what if you fly)

What if Kayla came to talk to Julie during the dance instead of Nick?

one more try (to feel alive)

Fluff and Angst, Role Reversal, Ghost Julie, 1.4k, Rated T

Kept On Climbing 'Til Our Stars Collided

He must be more screwed up from the dopamine than he thought, because—

There’s an angel in the kitchen.

Fluff and Angst, Pining, Friends with Benefits, Morning After, Jealousy, Awkward Conversations, 2k, Rated M

I'll Be Your Tangerine, You Can Peel Me With Your Teeth

Reggie/Julie

"Don't worry, tesoro. I won't bite. Unless you're into that sort of thing."

He’s pale, far too pale for someone who spends much time at sea, and his blush betrays him.

Pirate AU, Smut, Bonus Romantic Fluff, 4k, Rated E

Our Luxury (A Love Like Stars)

Reggie/Luke/Julie, Luke & Emily, Luke & Ray

“So, I bought a ring,” Luke says, casual in the way that usually Reggie would realize is nowhere near casual and much closer to freaking out, but he’s a little busy choking to death on his lunch.

Fluff and Angst, Established Relationship, Misunderstandings, Proposal, Romantic Gestures, Happy Ending, 13k, Rated T

What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Feel Alive

Reggie/Julie, Reggie/Luke/Julie, Julie & Rose, Julie & Ray

Fluff, Queer Themes, Love, Grief, Magic, Series, 7k, Rated T

It Was Only A Pick

Luke/Reggie

God, Reggie thinks as Luke smirks up at him, adorned in the fanning halo of his dark brown hair and the amusement that shines from his eyes, amplified blue from the proximity of the pick, he’s beautiful.

Fluff and Angst, Kissing, Misunderstandings, Music, Confession, Happy Ending, 4k, Rated T

Of Hearts Borrowed And Blue

Reggie/Julie

If anything, Julie’s even more of a grinch here that she would be back home, because she stuffed all of her grief into a battered suitcase, and she can’t just pull it out for every single stranger trying to get her into the Christmas spirit.

Hallmark AU, Fluff and Angst, Strangers to Lovers, 18.3k, Rated E

I Don't Want You Like A Best Friend

QPR Reggie & Julie, Luke/Reggie, Julie/Carrie

Everyone thinks Reggie and Julie are dating. It's a problem, because they're both pining over other people...but they also don't know exactly what they are, or how to reconcile their relationship with the romantic ones they want. They try to help each other, though.

Fluff and Humor, Light Angst, Pining, Jealousy, Queerplatonic Relationship, Friendship (Too Many To Tag), Love, Practice Kissing, Kissing, Friends to Lovers, Sexual Tension, Mild Sexual Content (They Are V Much Horny Teenagers), 13.8k, Rated M

JATP Characters As Pairs of Earrings I Own

**I’m not including pics because I’m lazy, but I’ve included the type of each earring for reference (studs vs. fish hook)**

Reggie:

Pizza slices with rhinestone pepperoni (studs)

BB-8 studs (don’t tell me Mr. Star Wars wouldn’t adore BB-8)

Mismatched set that looks like Hawkeye’s arrow and purple bullseye (dangly fish hook earrings)

For some reason I think he’d dig my earrings that look like Christmas trees?? (He’d wear them out-of-season and the others would yell at him lmao.) (fish hook)

Little Eiffel Towers (fish hook)

Julie:

Little purple butterfly studs (obviously)

Mismatched set that looks like a coffee cup and a Pop-Tart (fish hook)

Chocolate-covered strawberries (fish hook)

The sun from Tangled (for the sunshine girl herself <3 ) (studs)

Silver ballerinas with gold bows (fish hook)

Clockwork gears (yes these are Doctor Who earrings and I think Julie would like them cuz they’re kinda reminiscent of steampunk and she gives me that vibe.)

Alex:

Little red roses (studs)

Rapunzel’s tiara from Tangled (studs)

I feel like he would also enjoy the chocolate covered strawberries

Any of the pairs of faux pearl earrings I have (studs) (classic and simple)

Silver hoops that are made out of a twisted, kinda wavy metal

Rainbow narwhals (I wore them to my first Pride parade, so I think it’s only fitting that my favorite gay drummer boy would wear them)

Luke:

Faux diamond studs (rockstar aesthetic lol)

The coffee earrings but with the matching coffee cup (fish hook) (”You gotta wear them together or it looks weird, Jules.” “Whatever you say, Luke.”) 

Golden guitars that have “Grand Ole Opry” printed on the side (Reggie would also like these cuz he’s a country music boy.) (fish hook)

Mint green roses (studs, like Alex’s red ones)

Lightning bolts (studs)

I think Luke would enjoy the gold hoop I have in my helix piercing and he’d wear it without a matching one to look cool. (it’s real gold, so I think he’d also like that little bit of flare.)

Flynn:

Any of the pairs of tiny sunglasses (fish hook)

Green oysters with faux pearls inside (fish hook)

Aqua flip flops with pink rhinestone flowers on the soles (fish hook)

Iridescent rainbow owls (these were my second choice for my first Pride, but the narwhals were too cute not to wear.) (studs)

Giant rainbow hoop earrings that I wore to an 80s themed Girl Scout dance. (Flynn would definitely rock those and they probs wouldn’t hurt her ears like they hurt mine lol.)

Willie:

Silver crescent moons covered in tiny rhinestones (studs) (the moon is very calming and so is my boy Willie.)

The healing flower from Tangled (a bit flashier than the tiaras, but it’s nice to match with his bf) (studs)

Strawberry studs (again, gotta match with Alex)

Yellow sunglasses (fish hook) (He stole them from Flynn.) (She doesn’t mind.)

Hedwig from Harry Potter (I know HP is a touchy subject because JKR is a piece of shit, but I think he would still wear the Hedwig ones and pretend that they’re regular snowy owls.) (studs)

Plain silver hoops (classy enough for the HGC dress code, but not terribly over-the-top in terms of jewelry.)

[mcnetdehaans]

Your url change is 100% valid. You cant tell me Julie and Carrie are literally the enemies to lovers or lovers to enemies trope.

you literally can’t convince me otherwise that julie and carrie are ex gfs. like..... carrie at the end of stand tall RADIATES “proud ex gf” vibes

[comeonpeters]

i would need to buy beads (and a new length of synthetic leather), but i think i might make my own version of reggie’s necklace? 

so i’ve been wanting to buy reggie’s necklace (like from an etsy shop or something), but my hesitation lies in that i have my own pretty iconic necklace&earrings set that i wear all the time that my best friend bought for me a while ago 

but my leather snapped on that a few weeks ago and i haven’t replaced it, so what if i replaced it and rethreaded it with beads as well this time and had an amethyst centered version of reggie’s necklace?? that’d fuck pretty hard, i think, and it would still match with the earrings 

[backseatloversz]

thinkin abt alex’s rainbow bracelet & reggie, bobby, and julie’s necklaces & luke’s rings & willie’s earring & flynn’s various jewelry <3
