(cliff marleau voice) no man there’s actually a huge difference. italian catholics know that they will sin but know that they will be forgiven. the irish catholics believe they will never be absolved from sin and shame.

(shane hollander voice) oh yeah cool i get it (furiously texting under the table) dad are we irish

What is like a small things that a writer might do that immediately turns you off from reading? Not necessarily the actual subject matter, but like a petty innocuous little thing? For instance, I will usually skip a fic that has a super high word count to tags ration. Like, 37 tags for a 5k word fic and I already know it’s not going to be written well or just not my cup of tea.

lol this is going to sound mad pathetic but there's actually little to nothing that will make me click away from a fic. same deal with actual books. it doesn't matter the length or the quality. the second i lay eyes on the first sentence i have to finish the work all the way through.

yeah i know i need to value my time better. yeah i know that means i'm stopping myself from reading something i'll actually enjoy. but i will never stop. like i feel like committing to reading someone's writing is a big deal. i don't treat that stuff lightly. so the second i lay eyes i'm there with the author until the end.

if you're talking like. writing things that annoy me. uh. idk. writing that feels like overly sanctimonious. maybe. i feel like modern lit is really bad at this. for hr fic it's always like. if the author has an overly simplistic view of shane's race.

Ilya is so lucky that Shane proposed. Ilya would have been a nervous fucking wreck for the entire day beforehand. Wake up in the morning. Look in the mirror. Today's the day. Sob. Breathe. Okay I'm good! Turn around and Shane's hair is all in his face, still asleep on Ilya's pillow. I am NOT good. Cold shower. Breakfast that Ilya does not eat. Morning jog wherein Ilya runs like someone is chasing him. Lunch that Ilya does not eat. Drive out to the cottage. Make Shane pull over because Ilya needs to dry heave on the side of the road. "Baby we don't have to drive out today if you're not feeling well." "NO WE HAVE TO." Get to the cottage. Immediately send Shane on some kind of extended fool's errand. Shane wants to stay because Ilya is SHAKING and he is so worried. "No my love I'm fine it's just the breeze off the lake haha." It's thirty fuckig degrees Celsius. Shane finally gtfo's. Yuna, David, Rose FUCKING Landry all descend to help Ilya set up. Well. Ilya is supposed to be helping but he is standing on the deck fully dissociating. Yuna brings him tea. "Are you going to throw up the tea?" "Yes probably." Yuna takes away the tea. 800 electronic tea lights on the deck. In a parallel Ilya has no way of understanding, he both puts on and takes off a suit. Yuna fixes his curls into the hockey boy quasi-mullet that magnetizes Shane's fingers to Ilya's hair and says, "Oh, you're so handsome!" Ilya cries big fat tears. David tells a story about how his proposal to Yuna almost didn't happen because David went to the hospital for heart palpitations that morning. Thank You David That Does Not Help Even Remotely. Ilya slav squats on the lawn for twenty minutes. Shane's car pulls up in the driveway and everyone hides while Ilya vibrates in the entryway. Shane has no less than thirty grocery bags hanging from his arms, still complaining about why the grocery service cancelled their delivery last minute. Ilya leads Shane and all thirty of his grocery bags onto the deck. Shane is doing his favorite thing (bitching) and his second favorite thing (Follow Ilya) so he doesn't notice his own mother tiptoing behind him collecting the grocery bags he drops like breadcrumbs. There is an Oscar-winning actress hiding under his sofa and Shane does not notice because Ilya takes him on the deck and drops to his knees and Shane is like, "Haha, right now?" and then he sees that Ilya has a look on his face like he's just been told the sun is never coming up again and he has his hands on Shane's knees and he is saying, "Shane. Please?" and Shane puts his hands on his head and says "Oh my God baby what's happening to you" as Ilya melts and melts and then from the depths of the cottage someone who sounds a lot like Shane's very own father is whispering "The ring the ring" and when he looks back down Ilya is fumbling a ring box out of his pocket. The first picture of their proposal is Shane glaring into the middle distance with a hand cradling Ilya's curls like a baby while Ilya ugly sobs into his knee.

SHANE AND ILYA in HEATED RIVALRY ⏤ 1.04, “Rose”

[hudconvent]

i wish i read more about shane hollander being terrible at roleplay because its one of my dearest and closest held truths. ilya is great at it because i believe hes a thespian at heart but shane is a sexy yet terrible scene partner. like either cant stop giggling smiling not taking his lines seriously “yes yes it hurts here doctor hehehehe” OR hes taking it TOO seriously and getting caught up in the minutiae of the role. “yeah, thanks for coming out mr. plumber. big clog in the sink. im not really sure why that happened though. i’m never like pouring oil down the drain or anything. and actually i just got all the pipes refitted a couple years ago. all copper cuz its the gold standard in home plumbing. but youre a plumber so you probably already know that.”
