When The Slowburn Is Burning A Little Too Slowly:

This may be like, very specific, but are there any bartylus shameless fics, because like i saw a post about this, and i cant stop thinking about it

The vibe i bring to the function

how do we feel about moonwaterlily,,,, i dont usually ship remus and lily but theyve got a bit of a kick in this i must admit,,,,,,,

Ok we all know Eddie uses Stevie for cute reasons but what if for a while (before they start dating) Steve keeps thinking Eddie means it in an ironic/condescending way because of this right here. And he actually hates it even more than King Steve.

Maddie is this u

No…

imagining the boys in the band from the perspective of literally any of the characters is unfathomable to me…imagine showing up at a party for a friend and the mentally ill host’s closeted college friend shows up and KILLS THE VIBE…imagine being a naive young cowboy for hire looking to make a quick buck and get to the bars before midnight but you kiss the wrong guy and all the older gay men bully you and make fun of you while envying your beauty… imagine being late to your party and there’s already been a fistfight and your best frenemy fell off the wagon and insults you and forces the guests to play a psychological mind game and bodily prevents his vibe killing college friend from leaving the apartment unless he torpedoes his life…but parties were just like that in the 70s…

characters whose philosophy is “if i cannot be wanted, i will be needed and if i cannot be needed, let me be used until there’s nothing left of me.” thank you for everyone’s attention. falls off stage and dies

Nothing like sitting in Taco Bell for two hours eating and planning out a fanfiction with your best friend

To be sappy for a minute, I really love how platonic relationships are so centred and respected in Only Murders in the Building. Romantic relationships either fizzle out or are explicitly giving second billing after the main trio's friendship.

The heart of season four was how much Sazz, a lesbian, loved Charles, an old straight guy she worked with for years, and how devastated he was by her death because he loved her too and never felt like he did as much for her as she did for him.

Charles haltingly told Oliver he thought they'd grow old(er) and die together, and Oliver marrying Loretta was something he felt ambivalent about because he was happy for him but he didn't want to lose him.

And back in season three, Mabel was devastated when Charles and Oliver didn't have time for her. She's much younger than them and, nominally, could have an easier time moving on and moving into different social circles, but she loves them and wants them to value spending time with her as much as she does.

Like… the love of your life can be your friends, and that's not sad or pathetic or a bad consolation prize for not managing to do it the "right" way. Friendships can be the most important relationships in your life even after you do things the "right" way. And that's not only okay, it's beautiful.

Gay people will be like “this is my comfort show!” And then show you the most emotionally devastating, stress-inducing, tragic piece of media you have ever witnessed
