[chocosourlemon]

I was listening to mlp "Unleash the magic..but better" and I was suddenly reminded of "Victoria". (Context is with doll pulturgory.)

So here's the idea-

Victoria is the one singing the lady's part. ("I've realized that you've always been an outcast.") The echoing of "Free the magic"/ oh wa waHAHA(bye) are sang by some also deleted characters of the pretty dolls. Here's some concept art.

So like, imagine them singing in the background while Victoria sings to Lou. Lou will be singing Twilight's part.

The scenery would be Lou right in the middle of the council, and it surrounds him. And right above the head's of the council are screens that show parts of uglyville, and the uyglies are very oblivious to the cameras around them. (Maybe some robots must have put it there, idk. And I don't know what time setting this is.)

Here's a helpful idea

The song starts with Victoria singing to Lou of how he should exterminate the uglydolls. Somehow, I don't know how, but there are like, bombs (idk) underground. They are all connected, and waiting to be triggered by a push of the button infront of Lou, and finmaly destroy the entire village.

Victoria and the council pressures Lou into pressing it, and what would happen if he wouldn't. The markets would decrease, the reputation/legacy of the factory would fall because of unappropriate dolls on the stocks, and its all because of him not making sure ONE reject would be recycled. Because of that, uglyville was made, BECAUSE OF LOU. So it's really all on him that the uglies were multiplying. The lyrics hit "It's up to you to not fail THIS TIME." It shows how they gave Lou one last chance to do his job right, and if he fails, the uglies would continue to ruin the hundred of years' reputation in toy making factories. Because of him. (Lyric: "If we lose, then you're to blame.") And that he would be punished severely.

(My English sounds so bad that I can't explain well I'm so sorry)

So when you start listening to the beginning of the song-

It starts with the typical gaslighting and Victoria trying to make Lou believe what he's doing is right.

The council sings the echos behind her and to Lou's face. Cue the music

The council would show Lou the possibilities if he pressed the button. Things would go back to normal, and Lou will have his role and purpose back.

In the song of Luna's part, it would be ox saying that some uglydoll race would begin, and it would switch from Lou's contemplations if he wants to do it or not. Maybe the council would tell Lou to make them feel the anguish and despair he has felt for decades.

Victoria would look so pretty

And maybe, again idk how but like some of my ocs would be there???? What

Along with Nolan who's being held down by a robot. Maybe they found out that Lou has been making friends with rejects again, and some perfect dolls that are not up to factory standards.

Nolan would be the one to say spike's part

("TWILIGHT NO!")

And then the last part of "Now!" Is like ox beginning the race and vitoria signalling Lou to press it.

And that's the end of my ramble. Thank you for listening.

[usernoneexistent]

A/N: In ‘tales of the unexpected’ Winona gets caught being an accomplice in one of Sethel’s prank by her brother (which you can read here). So she conducts a plan to get back at Glenn which includes swooning their rival, Nolan Miller. Thanks to @cursebreakerfarrier for hosting this challenge.

Character featured: Victoria Summer @whatwouldvalerydo and Nolan Miller @hogwartsmysteryho.

Characters mentioned: Selene Fraser & Alan, Professor Figgs @lifeofkaze, Ethel Hexley @the-al-chemist, Oliver Gerard @kc-and-co, Professor Herron @cursebreakerfarrier.

Warnings: mentions of Sethel, dumb and impulsive decisions.

"Winona!" As her name was cried out in the cosy Gryffindor common room, the girl sank deeper into the lounge, knowing it signified trouble. Her kneazle, Emma was curled up in her arms. A shadow loomed over her as she finally looked up to see the caller of her name.

"Hello, my dear brother," putting on an obliviousness, Winona sat up properly to face Glenn.

"I'm not in the mood to play games, dear sister," he scolded. "I know it was you who told Hexley and Fraser where my soap was placed."

Oh dear, Winona had really gotten herself in a pit of trouble this time. Putting on her best act, she batted her eyelashes innocently, "I have no idea what you are referring to, Glenn—telling Ethel and Selene where your bar of soap was? Preposterous! I did no such thing!"

Glenn's stiffened his face, letting no emotion revealed upon his sister. He didn't buy the act. In fact, she instead admitted her guilt. The crime, simply answering a harmless question by Selene and Ethel, led to the most extraordinary transformation that Winona had ever witnessed in her fifteen years of living. The Gryffindor prefect walked in and sported bright, magnolia pink hair. He was made the laughing stock for days amongst everyone while simultaneously Selene and Ethel were the talk at Hogwarts to pull off such a defeat though their glory was short-lived. Glenn seemed to take this a little more personal this time, tracking all culprits one by one directly involved and indirectly through the past couple of weeks with detention.

"I'm telling mother about this, and we shall see how she responds," Glenn threatened.

"Fine, I did tell them where your soap was. Is this what you want me to say? However, don't tell mama that." Winona stood up, holding firmly onto Emma, ready to storm off and whine to her closest friend, Victoria, how unfair and ridiculous Glenn was.

"Your detention is to polish the silver for two weeks alongside Hexley and Fraser starting tomorrow. Consider this me being generous." With a tall stride, he walked away from Winona while he fixed the tie of a first year with the flick of his wand. She stuck out her tongue behind his back. Emma seemed tired of being held in Winona's arms and jumped to follow Selene's ferret Alan to play with him.

"Come on, Emma. Now you?"

-oOo-

Winona avoided Glenn at dinner, who was with Oliver Gerard, his closet and probably only male companionship. She was thankful for it; otherwise, she would have argued with him. A lot.

"Can you believe the audacity of my brother!" Winona started, taking a deep and dramatic sigh. " Giving me detention, his dear little sister!"

Her best friend, Victoria Summer, who was graced with patience, had to endure the dramatic retelling of how Winona got punished by her brother. However, Victoria knew that Winona had a tendency to go big and over-exaggerate the details.

"You know, Winona...I don't blame Glenn for reacting the way he is." Her tone her soft but firm. Victoria had this way of making one feel guilty without raising her voice in anger within mere seconds. "If I were him, I too would be upset to find out that my own sister would assist in such a horrendous prank. Poor Professor Herron, Professor Figgs and the grounds keeper had to clean up the mess and it took two weeks for the pink colour to be removed from Glenn's hair."

"Come on, Vicky. You are meant to be on my side." Winona played with her food, still angry about her brother. She looked behind Victoria and made the unfortunate mistake of catching the eye of a Nolan Miller at the Ravenclaw table. In the most unladylike behaviour, she stuck her tongue out. Nolan pulled a face back, being very gentlemen like of him. She couldn't stand Nolan and found he was as much of an arrogant composition of flesh and bones as her brother. Nolan would always try and beat Winona's test grades, using her to get back at Glenn due to the year gap between the two boys. So in Glenn's stead, she usually studied harder to beat Nolan's grades. Unfortunately, they mainly even out their grade averages, but Glenn would consistently rank higher than the two combined. Most of the time, anyhow.

The thought of Glenn alone seemed to rise anger in her, though another thought intruded. It was devious but Winona held onto the thought a little longer. She almost laughed at how ridiculous it was, but it would be insane enough to pull it off. The only and most genuine way to get back at her dear brother. But she would need Nolan for it to work.

Victoria turned to see who Winona was staring at. "Oh, Winona. You have got to stop this frivolous rivalry with Nolan."

"Actually, I was thinking of making amends with Nolan."

"Really?! It didn't look like that from my view."

"Well, I've decided that I'm going to make amends and end this pointless feud." Victoria was surprised but was happy nevertheless by Winona's decision.

Throughout September, Winona had made a conscious effort on her appearance and actions around Nolan. While they argued back and forth with witty remarks, she tried to be less harsh. Even though it made her sick to her stomach, she had congratulated him on his better test score in defence against the dark arts. During detention, she had used that time to think of further ideas on how to make advances toward the Ravenclaw. She had even gone as far as to ask Euphemia Macnair for flirting advice which turned out to be a primarily fruitless endeavour from the naturally shy Slytherin. Still, she had been able to provide some helpful books on swooning a man. Winona did as it said; she dropped her handkerchief several times in Nolan's presence and stole more not-so-secret glances. Over time, Nolan's responses softened and were more courteous than previously before.

Finally, Winona snuck off to the astronomy tower in early October at one in the morning. Her favourite place in all of Hogwarts is to observe the stars of Orion, Polaris and her favourite Vega. The tower had a strangely calming effect on Winona. It was a place to gather her thoughts with a quill and parchment, where she wrote her articles for the school newspaper. Still, tonight she would write something different, something she had read but never written. A love letter. The receiver would be Nolan Miller. If things go well and he falls for her, it would mean she has achieved the first part of her plan.

The quill scratched on the parchment. Winona carefully curved the letters and thought of the right words to say. It would be best to come across as a secret admirer, praise him and inflate his ego.

Dear Nolan,

I have a simple confession to make. I have been observing you since the Summer. You may not have realised, but anytime you walked past me, stolen a glance or even merely daydreaming about you, it made my heart leap like a frog hopping on a lily pad. You consume my thoughts day and night, and how I wish I could be nearer to you, of your brilliant mind and extensive knowledge. It took me a lot of courage to finally pour out these deep affections I hold for you. However, I believe a letter would not be enough to describe in every single way how I yearn for you and your affections. I would like to propose that we could arrange a meeting at the beech tree by the Great Lake on the morning of this Saturday. I must confess again that some of me are selfish, and I wish to see if you would reciprocate my sentiments. However, I would still die happy tomorrow if I am able to express to you in person even if you don't share my affections.

Of the deepest of my sincerities,

Your secret admirer

Winona looked out from the open window of the tower and aimed the folded letter shaped like a bird at the Ravenclaw tower. The letter swooped through an open window with a flick of the wand and a gust of wind. She prayed for it to be sent to the right window but wrote To Nolan clearly so it could be sent properly. If someone else found it, then at the very least, she hoped they were kind enough to give it to him. All she can do is wait for him tomorrow.

-oOo-

She was too nervous to the point of regret. Her stomach twisted and churned as time passed slowly. Winona paced up and down from the beech tree to the edges of the lake, allowing the tips of her recently shined boots to touch the body of water. She had contemplated multiple times if she should back down and pretend like it was a horrible joke gone wrong. Though despite the nerves, Winona was not one to easily back down, so she persevered. No, Glenn needed to suffer like he made her suffer by manually cleaning the Prefect bathroom for almost a month.

"Winona Rosewood?" She nearly jumped out of fright. The Gryffindor girl had not paid enough attention to her surroundings and noted the approaching figure. Nolan had arrived with her letter held in hand. "What are you doing here so early?"

She took a deep breath, masking her best shy face. "Well, I was waiting for you, Nolan."

Nolan's eyes squinted before widening as he came to a quick realisation.

"You are my secret admirer?!"

"I am embarrassed to admit it but...yes," Purposefully, she looked away. "It was a painful realisation as I once thought I detested you but only to uncover to my surprise that I actually do harbour tender affections for you."

"Well, this explains a lot. I was wondering why you had such a sudden change in heart towards me." His arms crossed but held on tightly to the letter. He didn't seem angry or upset with her, which was a good sign in her mind but he didn't seem as warm as she had liked.

"I know it must be a surprise to you but..." Winona continued on her best act. "Would you still be interested in courting me despite our past?"

There was a pregnant pause. Winona felt her blood pumping in her ears. Never had she been so nervous, not even during her tests, had she been so scared at this very moment. Nolan contemplated her offer, but some hope bloomed within her when she noticed his mischievous smile.

"Sure."

"Really?!" It came out more eagerly than anticipated as a faint smile widened. While the confession and acceptance weren't precisely what Winona had thought. Her only references were her Jane Austen novels and her half-brother, Colin telling her of his love declaration to Euphemia. It was certainly better than she had thought. "Well, we ought to arrange a meeting soon. To get to know each other better since we are courting now."

"How about tomorrow?" Nolan suggested. "We could take a walk around Hogsmeade."

"Sounds like a date then."

They walked back to Hogwarts castle together. They stuck to small chatter, but Winona couldn't help but keep her smile on. While the most challenging part of her plan to get back at Glenn was complete, it was time for the easiest part. She just needed the right person to spread some rumours at Hogwarts and she just knew the right one.

i love nolan and victoria standoffs

[denimbex1986]

'...Here are five reasons why Randolph’s rival Emily Blunt in Universal Pictures‘ “Oppenheimer” could trigger this year’s biggest BAFTA bombshell.

1. She’ll have the home court advantage. They’re the British Academy Film Awards, which means that UK-born Blunt will be playing on her own turf. And she’s not just any Brit — she’s practically royalty. (She even played the title role in 2009’s “The Young Victoria,” which earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Drama Actress.) BAFTA voters could be inclined to go with one of their own. In this case, that Brit could be Blunt.

2. She’s overdue for BAFTA recognition. Much has been made of the fact that “Oppenheimer” has delivered Blunt the first Oscar nom of her career. Let us not forget that BAFTA got behind her long before that. Her scene-stealing turn in 2006’s “The Devil Wears Prada” presented the first chance for her to walk the red carpet at BAFTA, as a contestant for Best Supporting Actress. She also contended for BAFTA’s Rising Star Award that same year. A decade later, Blunt’s star had undoubtedly risen: she was nominated as BAFTA’s Best Actress of 2016 for “The Girl on the Train.” Now on her fourth trip to BAFTA, she could be destined to finally take home the trophy.

3. She might be part of an “Oppenheimer” BAFTA sweep. The film scored a lucky 13 BAFTA nominations, just like it did at the Oscars. And it holds what appears to be an insurmountable lead for BAFTA’s Best Picture title, just like it does at the Oscars. BAFTA honors for Christopher Nolan for Best Director, Cillian Murphy for Best Actor and Robert Downey Jr. for Best Supporting Actor are practically set in stone. If “Oppenheimer” really explodes at BAFTA, Blunt could be another piece of its pie in the sky.

4. Brits frequently prevail in this category. While Americans do tend to come through when they’re virtual Oscar locks (Octavia Spencer in 2011’s “The Help,” Anne Hathaway in 2012’s “Les Miserables,” Patricia Arquette in 2014’s “Boyhood,” Viola Davis in 2016’s “Fences,” Allison Janney in 2017’s “I, Tonya,” Laura Dern in 2019’s “Marriage Story” and Ariana DeBose in 2021’s “West Side Story), homegrown talents often shine in more competitive races (Thandiwe Newton in 2005’s “Crash,” Tilda Swinton in 2007’s “Michael Clayton,” Helena Bonham Carter in 2010’s “The King’s Speech,” Kate Winslet in 2015’s “Steve Jobs” and Rachel Weisz in 2018’s “The Favourite”). So could Blunt be this year’s BAFTA favorite? This leads me to my final point.

5. Support for the odds-on favorite may not be as solid as we think. Sure, Randolph has cleaned up with the critics and now possesses both Golden Globe and Critics Choice statuettes. But as we all know, BAFTA members are a completely different breed. There’s no guarantee that they’ll just rubber stamp the selections made at the two previous precursors. And as deserving as Randolph would be, voters may not deem her to be undeniable. That bluntly makes Blunt a BAFTA bomb to watch out for — part of an “Oppenheimer” British invasion.'

24 Hours With The Barzals

mat barzal x model!fem!reader

a visceral in doses fic (the vogue series)

warnings: Hints at smut (sorta) and I think that’s all… let me know if there’s something I didn’t catch

Morning:

“Hi Vogue! It’s Y/n Barzal and welcome to my home. Please join me and my family for the day,” you greet, moving to the side to allow Vogue’s camera crew to come in and follow you down the long hallway.

“Everyone is already ready for the day. Mat loves taking over in the morning. He’s so domesticated and he gets all flustered whenever I bring it up, but he loves it,” you grin and cover your cheeks to stop your blush from being shown on camera.

“What do I love?” Mat asks with a proud smile on his face because Sloane is in his arms. Sloane is such a daddy’s girl.

Before answering him, you cuddle up to him, wrapping your arms around his broad shoulders and kissing Sloane’s chubby cheeks. “How domesticated you are. You love being a daddy,” you answer, patting his pec.

“Oh jeez,” he says under his breath, cheeks already getting red.

“Don’t get shy. You’re the best dad ever. We’re so lucky,” you reassure him, kissing his neck chastely.

“So, on today’s agenda is training with my favorite trainer,” you say looking up at Mat with a smirk. “Then I have a fitting with Victoria’s Secret. After that we will have lunch and we have some shopping to do! It’s going to be a long day, but hopefully we can make it fun,” you talk about the day ahead.

“Mama!” Angel shouts, tugging on your jeans and holding his arms up for you to pick him up.

“My Angel boy! I love you. Sometimes AJ just wants so much attention, and I absolutely love it. It doesn’t matter who he gets attention from, he just craves it.”

“He gets that from me except I only crave attention from my wife and kids,” Mat chimes in, stepping behind you and wrapping his arm around your waist.

You roll your eyes in fake annoyance and not a minute later Nolan is begging to be held too.

“Nolan is a mommy’s boy,” you say, smiling wide and eyes flashing with unconditional love.

“Mommy is so pretty,” Nolan whispers but the camera still catches it. You have to stop yourself from melting into a puddle on the floor.

“She is, isn’t she, buddy,” Mat whispers as well, attacking you all with kisses that make you squeal in delight.

Afternoon:

“This is my favorite private training spot! It’s just so convenient. Whenever we book it we’re able to bring the kids and there’s so much room for them,” you tell the camera, walking around to give a small tour of the area.

The camera pans around to show Nolan and Angel playing with their favorite dinosaur toys and Sloane resting peacefully in her baby rocker.

“Being that the Victoria’s Secret fashion show is less than a month away, I have started training. I workout every week, but we’re doing some specific training, so Mat will show me some boxing moves that he’s learned and he will give me a workout that he does. It’s a lot more for me, but that’s my goal!”

“She’s an absolute beast. I thought she was going to be tired and worn out, but she’s the strongest person I know,” Mat says, kissing your lips.

“It helps when you have an amazing partner.”

The camera films you going through multiple circuits of various workouts, each harder than the last. Halfway through, you take a break to replenish yourself and to feed Sloane while Mat gives the boys their snacks.

“Whenever we’re here by ourselves we still take a break just to let our muscles relax and to rehydrate, but with the kids here we usually don’t finish our workout. We end up running around with the boys until our legs feel like jello. It makes night time easier when the boys let out their pent up energy,” you explain.

True to your word, the camera films you and Mat chasing Nolan around while you have AJ in your hold. Their giggles fill up the room and you’ve never heard something more precious. When everyone is spent, all laid out on the floor, you pick up Sloane to set her on Mat’s chest. Yeah, sometimes you will get jealous that she’s so attached to Mat, but you can’t deny the flutter of feelings you feel whenever you see them together.

She immediately cuddles into his chest and his giant hands rest on her back, she falls asleep so easily with him. You get up from your spot on the floor, needing to have some contact with your husband. You sit by his head so he can rest it in your lap while you play with his hair.

“These are my favorite types of workouts. I know a lot of people see me focused on my work, but I will never choose something over my family.”

“It’s our pride and joy,” Mat confirms.

——————————————————————

“Next up: my VS fashion show fitting!”

“Okay, before we go in, it’s pure chaos in there so stick with me,” you say the next time the camera is rolling. You had to drop off both boys with your best friend Beverly, but it was best as it’d be too much for all of you to attend your fitting.

“I’d love to show you my outfit, but I’m afraid that’s top secret, so I guess we have to settle for only seeing the wings,” you say, tying your robe to hide one of your many outfits.

You go through makeup and hair just to see what it’ll look like before the big show. It’s a lot of trial and error, but it’s fun for you. While you’re in the chair and your hair is getting styled, Mat is sitting next to you with Sloane on his lap. She’s babbling and her hands wander Mat’s cheeks. She feels the smoothness of his fresh shaven face and she presses a messy kiss to the skin. It makes Mat laugh that laugh that you only hear when he’s truly happy.

“It’s time for the wings!” One of the stylists cheers.

You look at the camera with wide eyes and a giddy smile. It’s your first time wearing a pair of wings for the Victoria’s Secret fashion show.

“Are you ready?” Mat asks, knowing the wings are something you’ve been waiting for.

“Yeah! I’m nervous, though.”

“You’ll be perfect,” he assures you.

“Okay! We will put the wings on over the robe and then we’ll go over the measurements of the straps. Ready?”

“Yes!”

The stylists help you slide the wings on and when you get a look at yourself, you start to tear up. For a few minutes you’re quiet, small streams of tears falling from your eyes. Mat is quick to get up, adjusting Sloane in his hold, and pulling you into him.

“You look beautiful, babe. You were meant to wear these wings. I love you and I’m so proud of you,” he whispers against your temple. You cry a bit more, throwing your arms around his neck and kissing him a few times.

“I love you more,” you say back.

“This is a moment I have been waiting for for what feels like forever. I’m so grateful to finally experience my first pair of wings!” You exclaim to the camera.

“Next we are having some food at my best friend’s house!”

The camera next films Mat, your best friend, the kiddos, and you at Beverly’s kitchen island.

“This is Beverly Blount, my best friend and the best actress in the entire industry,” you introduce your blushing bestie.

“This is basically our second New York home. We always come over here to eat and hang out,” Mat informs.

“Our babies love to be with auntie bb!”

“It’s only because they love my cooking.”

“Well that’s what happens when you’re a good cook.”

Nolan is sitting on the island, leaning against you while you stand, feeding him because he’s a big mommy’s boy and you love spoiling him. Angel is in Mat’s arms while he’s also standing at the island, but AJ is passed out. If Angel can sleep in Mat’s arms, he will. He has the hardest time whenever Mat goes on a roadie.

As you all continue eating and talking, you take a look around, enjoying the way everyone interacts together. When you met Mat, you knew he was the one, but you never imagined your life the way it is now. You didn’t expect to have kids at a young age, but you wouldn’t trade them for anything. You know Mat feels the same way. You can see it now, how he holds his babies whenever his hands are free or not free, or how he looks at them like they’re the most precious beings. They are.

You press a kiss to Nolan’s cheek, making him turn around and kiss your forehead- something he’s picked up from Mat. You move closer to Mat, arms circling around his waist and letting your head rest on his shoulder. You smile when he pecks the skin of your neck. Angel may be asleep, but that doesn’t stop you from kissing his cute face. The same with Sloane, as she sleeps you kiss her tiny nose.

Evening:

After you finished eating, Beverly talked you and Mat into letting her watch Sloane, so you and Mat could finish the rest of your errands. It’s not that you didn’t trust her, because you trust her with your life, but you didn’t want to overwhelm her being that Sloane is still a baby. That being said, now you and Mat are out shopping.

“We are here at YSL looking for a suit for Mat. He wants to dress in something new for when he attends my fashion show, and I can’t blame him. Plus, I love to wear his button up at night when we get undressed because it smells like his cologne.”

“She also loves being my stylist.”

“That's true; no one dresses barzy better than me,” you sass, chin up and a smirk painting your face.

You feel your husband come up behind you, hands resting on your hips and his face hiding in your neck. He kisses the skin a couple times before whispering in your ear, “and no one undresses you better than me,” paired with a chaste kiss. Your face flushes and you have to resist the urge of stopping the interview and heading home.

“I think I should just stick with a plain black suit, so we don’t have to stay here too long,” Mat tries to get you to comply, but you deny his request, stating that he needs to try all his options.

“Mat loves a black suit. Which I’m not sure why because he looks breathtaking in blue. Watch, when we’re done here, he’ll have a brand new blue suit to take home,” you rant.

As time ticks by, Mat tries on a variety of suits and outfits, simply skipping over the blue suit. He knows you’re right.

“Maty, baby,” you lay it on thick, knowing you’ll get him to cave.

“I think you should try on the blue suit. You know you look gorgeous in blue,” you whisper to him, hands holding onto the back of his neck and staring deep into his eyes.

He sighs, “fine.”

You grin at the camera, desperately trying to hold in your laughter.

When he walks out the dressing room, everything unbuttoned and untucked, you reach out for him as he loves when you do it for him.

“You like it?” You ask as you’re tucking in his shirt and fastening his belt.

“Yeah, it looks nice. Actually this one is my favorite,” he says.

You turn him around to face the mirror, fixing some loose strands of his hair. He stares at himself, looking at your reflection for your approval.

“You look so good, baby,” you say while snapping a picture of him.

Once you’ve paid for everything, including a pair of heels you just needed, you walk out the store, arm wrapped around Mat’s waist while he holds the bags.

“Thank you so much Vogue for following us around. Now, we need to get our babies home, fed, and in bed. Night time is sacred to the Barzals. Because it’s our favorite time of day- an intimate part of our day, we will part ways here. I love you all and I hope you enjoyed a day in our lives. Bye!” You say, blowing a kiss to the camera.

a/n: Idk why this took me forever (forever for me at least) this isn’t exactly my favorite, but I hope y’all enjoy it! I think this is the last installment for the vogue series. It’s been fun!

Tuesday: "Why is Lou your boyfriend??"

Lydia: "Tues, you know that Lou isn't actually--"

Ox: "Your hat makes you look like a little mailman!"

Lou: "Oh, it does?"

Lou was sent to a farm in his early years, where he met Ox. This was his first time out of the city. It was also some of his fondest memories. (Leaving the farm)

dad every day, coach on sunday: nolan moyle au

all credit to @power2myheart and her suggestion that nolan looks like a real estate agent 

tani speaks: also this is an au and like if the teams and things don’t make sense just ignore it and pretend it does 

“alex-james moyle, if you don’t come downstairs right now we’re going to be late!“ nolan yelled for his son. your husband was the coach of your children’s bantam team. 

you helped your daughter load her bags into the car as your son ran out the door. nolan locked your front door and made his way to the car as you got in the passenger seat. 

“you know AJ, back in michigan if any of the boys were late they had to find their own way to the rink,” nolan recalled. your son rolled his eyes as you prepared for the chaos of the rink. 

once your family reached the rink, nolan gave you a kiss before heading off to get things ready for the game. your daughter, nicole, gave you a small hug before heading off to the locker room and your son just waved before walking with his friends. 

“y/n!” you heard your name being called and turned to find nick blankenburg. nick gave you a hug and the two of you made your way to your seats by the glass. 

after nick graduated from michigan, he had gone to play for the columbus blue jackets whilst nolan stayed to get his real estate certificate. it was in your senior year that you fell pregnant with AJ. 

“hey blanks, is KJ coming as well?” you asked. it was tradition for nolan’s old teammates to come watch the first game of the season if they could. nick nodded “he and owen are on the way. i’m pretty sure briss is coming with bords and luca,” he added. 

you smiled at him and nodded turning your attention to the ice. you watched as your children warmed up together and watched as nolan adjusted his tie. “has AJ been practicing the tricks i taught him?” kent asked as he and owen sat next to you. 

owen came around and gave you a hug before urging kent to do the same thing. “of course he has, he wants to be just like his uncle kent,” you answered. owen explained that victoria couldn’t come because his daughter was unwell. 

“the party has arrived!” brendan announced. trailing after him was bords, luca, mackie, mark and eddy. “duker and luke are in the parking lot. mini duker and mini hughes had a little bit of a shoving match,” mark explained. 

it was clear to everyone in the group that luke’s son had the biggest crush on dylan’s daughter. but the two fathers would always deny the statement. luke’s son would do anything for duker’s daughter and she would get mad at him for helping her. 

only once the game had started did dylan and luke come in with their children. dylan’s wife was pregnant with their second child and luke’s wife was working on another movie. 

“woah is that little nicole? she’s really fast,” the boys mumbled as your daughter skated up the ice. “come on nicole.”  “go mini moyle!” “go nikki!” your group cheered as nicole neared the net. 

however, just as she was about the put the puck past the goalie one of the players from the opposing team checked her hard into the goal post squashing her shoulder in the process. 

you watched as the same guy said something to your daughter as she cradled her arm in pain. your son was there in minutes shoving the guy away from his sister. AJ was never one to start a fight and win so when he dropped his gloves you knew this was going to be terrible. 

“oh shit, AJ can fight,” brendan mumbled as everyone watched your son punch the guy. the referees were quick to break up the fight before anyone could land another punch. 

the game ended with your children’s team winning and your son going to the box three times. nicole had joined you and the others in the stand after the first period she sat next to layla and enzo. 

“hey nikki, how’s the arm?” nick asked your daughter. the group of you were waiting for nolan and AJ to join you for lunch. nicole didn’t look up from her phone as she shrugged “it’s okay uncle nick,” 

when mark saw AJ he started clapping “look at my favourite nephew. he’s coming after my penalty minutes record,” he teased. AJ shook his head as he sat next to enzo giving the younger boy a fist bump. 

nolan gave you a kiss before sitting next to you. “i think i might revoke mark’s visiting rights if AJ turns out like him,” nolan remarked. the boys laughed and continued talking amongst each other. ethan’s fiancee had joined you guys for lunch and the two of you were sat next to the children. 

“nini, i swear if you don’t tell andrew what his cousin did i’ll tell him myself,” AJ announced out loud. everyone stopped their conversations and looked to your children. “who’s andrew?” nolan asked. 

nicole glared at her brother before replying “no one dad. it doesn’t matter because nothing is happening,” 

nolan gave nicole his dad stare but your daughter just turned to you. “mom,” she pleaded. “andrew larkin. he’s in nicole’s year and they’re just friends alex-james so don’t try starting things,” you warned. 

“his cousin is the player that hit me. but he was trying to apologise before mr hot-head punched him,” she spat. when nolan realised who the kid was his face paled before he turned to his son “AJ i love you, but i cannot believe you punched my clients child. i have to see his dad tomorrow dude,” nolan groaned. 

your son shrugged and continued eating his pizza as nicole returned to typing on her phone. the boys teased nolan about his meeting tomorrow until nick put a stop to it. no matter what happened captain nick always had to interfere. 

ethan’s fiancee smiled over at you “i think it’s that time of year where we all go on a girls trip,” she suggested.

i don't remember if this has been posted before but i do subscribe to the belief that victoria dallon would be really into batman. specifically the christopher nolan movies. exactly her deranged ideas about what superheroism should be. but if you ever reminded her that batman is not technically a parahuman she would get so mad. "it's obviously implied that he had a thinker/tinker trigger, they're just not familiar with those terms in earth aleph" she insists, trying to sound calm, while six feet away her forcefield crushes a signpost to scrap metal
