I am a victim of Illi McMillin propoganda
these stupid twinks (they are like 140 and 260 years old respectively)
image that this is referencing is under the cut!
ok but let's say they went to ollie's house and he wasn't lying
they turn up and it's some dilapidated shared housing complex or something. his mum is there, maybe a bit drunk. it's awkward. ollie clams up. he doesn't want to be there, he can't be there.
felix tries to make normal conversation, tries to lighten the mood and get them talking, but ollie just isn't having it. maybe his mum starts kicking off over god knows what so they leave quickly.
once they get back to saltburn it's a complete flip from the film. it's ollie walking away this time, felix begging for him to stop, saying sorry over and over. ollie loves him but right in this moment he needs a break. he needs to be alone for a while. he feels humiliated, like a child again.
the party. ollie has hidden himself away in a corner somewhere. maybe he's hiding out in the maze. maybe he's a little drunk when felix finds him (maybe he's a little drunk too).
they argue about it. ollie is still pissed, felix just wants them to be friends again. but ollie is drunk (he feels like his father) so he still grabs and pushes and says "i love you" when he knows he probably shouldn't. be he feels scared and vulnerable and like a joke.
idk idk i don't think they'd kiss but i think maybe they'd wake up in the morning, maybe curled up together in felix's bed. fully clothed, wings and antlers and all, all rumpled and warm.
maybe they talk quietly about it all, ollie's past, his trauma, his fears. neither of them mention the "i love you" but they're both thinking about it. felix is thinking about it.
about how he maybe sort of possibly loves him too. maybe more than he thought he did.
š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤ thinking thought.
Going crazy over the sleeves, it's too long for him š„ŗš„¹
saltburn better win that bafta for best original film score it's an actual work of art
i would like to formally declare that geta and caracalla cannot be villains because:
big brown doe eyes (geta)
malewife tendencies (caracalla)
poor baby has syphilis (caracalla)
poor baby has to babysit and share his empire with his brother who has syphilis (geta)
slutty (both)
would kill for the people they love, even if that includes killing the people they love (both)
sexually non-discriminatory (definitely caracalla, but probably both if weāre being honest)
single dad to a very adorable monkey (caracalla)
single dad to his sick brother (geta)
big fans of watching sweaty men go at it in a huge arena (both)
just wants everyone to acknowledge his pretty rings (geta)
hot as fuck, but in a menacing kind of way (geta)
brothers by chance, besties by choice (both)
girls emperors just wanna have fun (both)
confused as to why everyone doesnāt love them as much as they love themselves, and also incredibly hurt by that fact (both)
first people to ever celebrate brat summer (both)
king of having homoerotic tension with people who genuinely hate him and want to see him dead (geta)
adorably excitable, especially when bloodshed occurs, but like, hey, we all have our quirks (both)
big himbo-in-denial energy, doesnāt know poetry, but pretends heās still very smart boy, very brilliant emperor (geta)
theyāll work it out in the remix (both)

~~~~~~~~~~~ Author's Note: This is that Angel Face backstory I was talking about. His name is Caleb Handover because I'm not going to call him Angel Face the whole time. There will be no "spice" because I type this on a school computer and honestly I want to expand my writing abilities. ~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a horrible way to start a journal, probably the most over-done and unintriguing sentence used to start a story, but my name is Caleb Handover. Iām 16 years old, and I live in Wilmington, Delaware. I go to Mt. Pleasant High School, class of 2001. That makes me a Junior.
Itās boring. Every single day is the same. The ducks pass over the sky when Iām walking to school, and it looked cool when I was nine, but nowadays it just feels like Iām watching someone drive to work.Ā
Delaware duck schedule: 6 AM, wake up to the same alarm as everyone in the neighborhood. 7 AM, fly to the pond for breakfast and a bath. Pass by that blond kid again.Ā
My hair was born white. People on the street asked my mom while she was pushing the stroller, why do you bleach your babyās hair?Ā
She never did.Ā
Ā First period is Advanced Placement Calculus. Iām thinking about ducks. Derivatives, ducks, hyperbolas, ducks, factorials, ducks, integralsā¦
My mom called my hair duck-fuzz.Ā Ā
I like math, but I only say that because high schoolers have to like something. If you say you donāt like any subjects in school, you sound like a wannabe-dropout loser. Iām 16 years old and taking AP Calculus. I donāt think Iām a wannabe anything, but I donāt think Iām genuine, either. Iāve already done the warmup question on the board. Find 34! Itās just a factorial. Does anyone see me?
āCaleb Handover?ā
Only during attendance.Ā
I raise my hand until my elbow is about six inches off of my table, parallel to the smooth, fake-wood surface. Not high enough to seem like a geek, but still giving effort.Ā Ā
Invisibility is a science.
āHere.āĀ
Thereās a pause. My hand stays in the air.
āCaleb Handover?ā my teacher tilts his chin up and surveys the room, his pencil hovering over my name, ready to write truant.Ā
āI said Iām here,ā I said louder as I raised my hand higher. My pen balances between my peace-sign fingers. My teacher flicks his eyes to me, and his eyebrows soften. He adjusts his glasses. The sad taste of desperation lingered in my mouth after essentially begging to be accounted for.
āOh, hello Caleb. Sorry I didnāt see you.ā My teacher laughs dryly and clears his throat. āSerena Hofstadter?āĀ
She has mono.Ā
āGordon Jacobs?āĀ
Thatās how Serena got mono.
For a moment I picture Serena and Gordon as Romeo and Juliet during the final act. Gordon drinks from a tall, crystal vial of mononucleosis extract and collapses. Serena, covered head-to-toe in orange spray tan and blonde highlights underneath her Shakespearean garb, discovers him on the floor and gives a tearful soliloquy before kissing him feverishly in an attempt to drink the mono from his lips. In the end, theyāre both bedridden, and everyone knows.Ā
In fair Delaware we lay our scene.
I donāt know why, but Iām angry at them. Serena and Gordon. My knuckles turn white as I grip my pen harder, gritting my teeth and thinking about my peers who go to parties to drink and kiss and do drugs. I didnāt even think parties were a real thing until I started listening to rich kidsā conversations.Ā
āI got home so late last nightā¦ā quote from the boy wearing the same clothes as yesterday.
āIām, like, so hungover.ā quote from the girl wearing sunglasses indoors at 8:30 AM.
āHer house was so tacky.ā quote from the girl whose locker is head-to-toe in sequins and leopard print, who uses perfume to cover the smell of anxiety pheromones.Ā
Iām not jealous, and Iād rather have lifelong diarrhea than be in the same boat as these kids, but it would be nice to have a life.Ā
It would be nice to be a part of something bigger than myself.
