GOOD OMENS S02 + TUMBLR REACTIONS
I think you lot are severely underestimating the power of "God I love him but he's so stupid sometimes" when it comes to jaymelvik. Vik and Mel love Jayce for his brilliance and stupidity. You cannot tell me that Mel didn't care about Viktor either. Because also. That's part of Mel's character. She may use people, but she always cares about them. She might use you but she won't let you sink.
And she did fall in love with Jayce. I don't think she was expecting to. But the ways in which she did likely scared her for a moment before accepting. She couldn't accept Jayce without Viktor either because of how close they are as friends. Literal package deal. It's also obviously those two would lead to romance because. Look at them, c'mon now. And she already accepted that. Honestly think if all that didn't happen, she would have started inviting Viktor to go places with them. He'd be included in dinners. And it would have started as business meetings but quickly turned to just hanging out. Mel and Viktor would have loved each other too. Because all three of them scheme. None of them would have wanted any others to be kept at arms length from the other for similar and different reasons. They wouldn't have picked one over the other, they'd just pick all three of themselves. It would be difficult at times, cause all couples butt heads. But again, none would want any others to feel like they'd be less important, because all of them have had to deal with that. For these three it's literally just natural. It doesn't work for other characters...because they are other characters..? Idk I just think it's obvious they'd all tie into each other well. Bothers me that Mel gets painted as only manipulative black woman who never really loved Jayce, has no cares for anyone but herself, while jayvik is like some holy sacred thing with no issues.
I really want some angst after the prank fics. Do you have any? Thank you!
Oh friend, for many readers this is such a huge part of the appeal of the marauders. There are a few previous lists linked below along with some extra fics on this subject. Hope you find some new fics to love but be prepared for the hurt/comfort feels.
A Simple Fact by trailingoff Whatever happens, whatever he does, whoever he tries to be, Sirius’s father was right about one thing.
The Red Phone by @wanderingbandurria It’s the summer before Seventh year, and things haven’t been easy for Remus Lupin in the past year, between Snape gaining knowledge of his lycanthropy and him giving up his prefecture to avoid casting attention. Things with his friends have been strange too, James angry at Sirius for the first time, and Sirius making less flamboyant displays and making Remus nervous when he catches him looking at him with weirdly fixed eyes. And then, one hot afternoon, a red phone appears in the middle of the Lupins backyard. He takes it, of course, because he is a Gryffindor, goddammit, and even more, a Marauder, and not for nothing.
By the Seaside by shoebox_addict In the wake of 'The Prank,' Sirius visits Wales with Remus over the summer.
all lies and jests by @angwrites The days are measured as such: before Monday, and after Monday. The "after" days come one by one yet all at once, while James watches his friends fracture, and tries to help put them back together. In the end, it requires more than a single motorbike ride or bar of chocolate. It requires learning when to run and when to stand still, when to talk and when to say nothing, when to interfere and when to leave them to it. However...
Several Ways to Apologize by Aria "The thing is, though," Sirius said, addressing the scarlet draperies, "Moony's not going to give me legumes and yell. He's too nice."
Concerning the 25th by Psychomanteum (SilentP) The full moon rises at seven in the evening on December 24th, 1996. This is, coincidentally, the first full moon that Sirius knows Remus Lupin is a werewolf. Not coincidentally, December 25th is the first day Sirius will spend three hours waiting outside a Ministry building.
