my daily affirmation as an author

[summershouto]

that girl is gay. I really do believe that.

I normally dislike crossovers between franchises. No hate if that's your thing, it's just not for me. However. The idea of a TMBS x ASOUE crossover intrigues me, not because I'm interested in seeing the orphan genius kids interact (although that would be cool), but because the fact that both Show Curtain/Nathaniel Benedict AND Count Olaf are both canonically insufferable theater kids who keep getting beaten by groups of children has such ridiculously high comedic potential it would be a crime not to consider it.

Not because I think they would team up. Oh no. They both need to be the center of attention at all times. I also feel like Nathaniel was the type of theater kid who bossed the other students around, treated every high school performance like there were talent scouts coming specifically to see him (and insisted that all inferior actors that made him look bad needed to be cut from the cast), and was also on math team/in science club (and bragged about his academic accomplishments constantly), whereas Olaf was the type of theater kid who was late to every rehearsal, didn't even try memorizing his lines until the night before the performance, and was constantly in danger of being expelled and kicked out of the production because he refused to do his school work. They would HATE each other (and frankly, so would everyone else in the drama club because they both throw tantrums whenever they aren't cast as the lead, as they both insist they are the most talented student in the school).

Constance, standing outside Prufrock Preparatory School with the other MBS members: Where the FUCK are we?!

[noneknxws]

The. The way Martina smiled and didn’t hesitate to come when Kate called her.

Mhm.. *takes down notes on lesbian colored notepad*

[blacktulips11]

This actually has me thinking. How the hell did Kate knew Martina is in Europe? And what phone number to call? Unless they kept in touch????

First it was Martina hugging Kate and now it’s Kate hugging Martina

Not only do I headcanon Kate Wetherall as queer (obviously) but I also feel like she grew up in the closet and never really wanted to come out. But then she joins the society and they all start becoming her family so she’s like “Okay okay I should tell them! It feels safe to tell them!”.

But then one by one each member starts casually mentioning that they’re queer in one way or another.

Milligan - “I find it bold of anyone to assume that I am strictly interested in woman.”

Reynie - “Oh yeah I totally had a little crush on Sticky for a moment. But that’s over. We’re still great friends though!”

Sticky - “Okay so there was this cute guy at Boatwright…”

Constance - “Romance repulses me. I take no interest in anyone really. Additionally, heteronormativity are rules for fools.

Rhonda “Gender does not matter to me in regards to attraction. I simply value the soul.”

Ms. Perumal - “I have in fact read the works of Sappho, if you know what I’m getting at.”

And this goes on until every single member says something like this

And Kate is just like Do I even need to come out now???? Would it be weirder if said I was straight????

A Disney show where two orphaned brothers couldn’t get their shit together and now a bunch of children and their parental figures are having to plot out secret schemes and go on dangerous missions to stop the evil brother from destroying the entire world. The evil brother is raising a sheltered boy who is clearly being messed up physiologically and really loves birds. Oh yeah and there’s this one girl on the good side who’s really energetic and rebellious but a bit of a social out cast. She meets this one star student girl who’s kind of mean at first but grows to really love the energetic girl.
