The Amazing world of Gumball writers have been unleashed
Sometimes it’s possible to have too much determination.
every ep of queer eye:
jonathan-do you,,,know what a shower is??
tan-FRENCH👏🏼TUCK👏🏼
bobby-i noticed the colors of your walls didnt match, so i built a completely new house
antoni-*smells everything*
karamo-so…childhood trauma. tell me about that
queer eye interviews be like
- individual level: Thoughtful Commentary, just a lil shady and making jokes about the others, they’re really nice to the interviewer
- four out of five: a lot of fun, you can see how close they are, really good mix of humor and deep insight and general gay friendship, perfect promo materials for the show
- all five: ABSOLUTE MESS, the interviewers can barely get a word in, everyone speaking over each other and it’s absolutely hilarious, jonathan or antoni say something wildly scandalous in a very casual way, their publicist is screaming backstage
Neil knows how much Andrew hates it when people hide things from him. He remembers how much every reveal that he’d been lying to Andrew about his past and who he really was annoyed Andrew. He remembers how bothered Andrew was, even through the haze of his medicine, when Kevin kept the news of the Ravens switching divisions from him for so long. And he’s known for a long time that at some point he is going to have to tell Andrew that what they have is something more to him than the casual thing they both claimed they meant it to be.
So, now Neil tells Andrew right away when it’s something important. No matter what.
He figures it out in the middle of the night, after he wakes up and can’t fall back asleep. He listens to Andrew’s steady breathing and lies facing Andrew, looking at the way his hair is mussed up and how he has his entire arm crammed under his pillow, clutching it for dear life as he angles it into the perfect position. And suddenly it hits Neil like a ton of bricks.
“Andrew,” Neil says quietly.
Andrew is a light sleeper as a leftover defence mechanism, so he stirs and then blinks a few times before frowning at Neil. “What?”
“I love you,” Neil says because he does and how did he not realize it earlier? Love is not something Wesninskis are good at, but he is not a Wesninski anymore and he loves Andrew so much it hurts.
Andrew pushes the edge of his pillow into his face and then mutters, “I fucking hate you. Go back to sleep.”
But Neil knows he doesn’t. Neil knows Andrew is just grumpy and tired and putting on the usual facade.
“No. You like me,” Neil accuses.
Andrew lets the pillow fall from his face and shoots Neil a deadly look that is totally wasted on a man so head over heels in love that he sees right through Andrew’s wall of defences. “No. I hate you. What fucking time is it?”
Neil completely ignores the question as he says, “I think you might love me too.”
Andrew rolls over to check the clock because clearly he realizes Neil is not going to tell him the time, then he rolls back to face Neil and asks, “Is this really a conversation we need to have at 5:23 am?”
“I just wanted you to know,” Neil says. “I didn’t want to keep this from you. I don’t want to keep anything from you anymore.”
Andrew groans and buries his face in the pillow. Neil can’t tell if he’s upset Neil woke him up in the middle of the night to tell him he loves him or if he’s upset because Neil’s justification is working on him.
“You are the most annoying person I have ever met,” Andrew says when his face finally emerges from the pillow. “I cannot believe I’m in love with you.”
His tone says it’s an insult, but Neil is beaming anyways. Andrew really loves him back.
They don’t say it to each other again. Andrew isn’t one for repeating himself and restating the obvious. But they both know it is true thanks to their middle of the night confirmation that this is real and they both feel the same way.
i literally procrastinate talking to my friends like it hits me “oh shit i havent talked to that friend in a while” and im like “yeah ill have to do that later” and then i dont
then i feel really guilty about it and [AVOIDANCE INTENSIFIES]
Then it’s like a month later, and I’m just sitting there like, if I never speak to them maybe they’ll just forget I ever existed.
Periodic reminder when this kind of post comes up that being my friend means never having to say “sorry i dropped off the face of the earth for a few weeks/months/years” there. I get it. I promise. I vanish sometimes too and then get all avoidant about it. I’ll understand if you need to do the same, and I’ll be here when you come back. Team Weird Avoidant People Who Are Sort of Terrible At Friendship But Trying Really Hard needs to stick together.

When you see a Prep in hottopic
“This Prep is ready for war bring it you emo fuck”
I find it kinda odd how people talk about writing “flawed” characters like the flaws are an afterthought
Like “cool cool we’ve got this perfect hero now to just sprinkle on some Irritability and Trust Issues then microwave for 6 minutes on high until Done”
But I’ve personally found it feels a lot more useful to just… think of the flaws as the Good Traits except bad this time
The protagonist is loyal? Maybe that means they have a hard time recognizing toxic relationships and are easily manipulated by those they want to trust
The hero is compassionate? Maybe they work too hard and overextend themselves trying to help people and then they refuse to ask for help when they need it themselves for fear of burdening others
They’re dedicated to their ideals? Maybe they’re also too stubborn to know when to quit and they have trouble apologizing for their mistakes
If they’re creative, they can also be flighty. If they’re confident, they can be arrogant. If they’re brave, they might be reckless. If they’re smart, they could be condescending. Protective can become controlling, and someone who’s carefree could very well also be emotionally distant
In my opinion, the best “flaws” aren’t just added on afterwards. The best flaws are baked in deep, ‘cause they’re really just virtues turned upside down
