It kills me KILLS ME that sidestep forcing themselves to endure and go through the pain of being free from the farm alone quite possibly saved their life And the rangers too but esp Ortega. And no one knows this. Ortega's hurt and sad and mad that sidestep didn't come to them after escaping (even when they don't know all the details) but they don't know the farm was watching them SPECIFICALLY to check if sidestep would come crawling back to them. And sidestep maybe had a suspicion that the farm would look for them there and it's possible that factored into their decision to not go back to Ortega beyond feeling betrayed/not feeling like they could go back to that life/etc but they don't know they were fucking RIGHT

anyway, this was what i actually intended to be my first pieces of pride lmao. inspired by this discussion bc it made me laugh

my very loose fhr fancast

thought it would be fun to make this so. assorted pics of famous-ish people i think match the vibes of the main cast, some of them are a lot closer to the mark than others and don't actually match the ethnicity of the character in question b/c of what i've been able to find, and most of them i need to add more bodyfat in post when i use them as refs, but they do kind of get the energy i'm going for)

the abelards/dr. mortums

mirlene - danai gurira (a little more rounded and she'd be perfect! <3)

merle - tongayi chirisa (similar to mirlene's fc)

the ortegas/charges

julia - becky dee (a little bit younger than i see julia and a few shades too pale but the bodytype and the swagger/smile is right on)

ricardo - young davey lopes (found just today by @kidhellion ty! <3 guy isn't latino but damn he does match up perfectly)

the other rangers

argent - quannah chasinghorse (credit to @uncreativeboxdraws for finding her <3 I read argent as indigenous mexican latina, because of her name ximena being a v popular name in mexico)

chen - young(er) jet li (again, needs more bodyfat, but the rounded cheeks and squareish jaw do sell it)

daniel - heath ledger (i like his smile lines/dimples a lot, they feel very daniel and just generally he has just enough youthfulness to read as a guy in his mid twenties and not a baby)

bonus: my steps

sura - vineeta maruri (who also happens to be nb which is nice!). very very loose fc ref tho, their nose and lips and such aren't as pronounced as sura's, and they are pretty young, but it's the closest i've been able to get and i can sometimes use them as a baseline

kat - roberta collindrez (used her likeness when making kat so he pretty much looks like her)

surendra - either akshay khanna (left, similar to his origins as an offshoot of original sura, still south asian) or bilal hasna (right, diverging more from original with a SWANA guy)

Get with the dog dad program, Chen. God.

OMG why’d it take me so long to recall this. The last time my coworkers and I were in the kitchen together. We were listing to the Little Shop of Horrors soundtrack. So with thar being said

Rangers PR team handing these out:

[subjectverb]

proxy relationship not a trope to anyone else but me which is a shame. Does no one else care abt the beautiful dynamic potential of conducting an entire shameful affair with someone just to get closer to their partner...Indirect kiss through some other guy. Possibilities !

[subjectverb]

some dynamics under this umbrella (feel free to add more im gonna forget some)

a wants b, b is with c, and a cant have b, so a gets with c

a and b both want c so they form a relationship out of mutual Well You Also Know C So You Get It And Also You Are Close As I Can Reallt Get To Them

a and b both want Each Other but they dont believe they can do that (whether or not theyre right is frankly irrelevant!! i dont care if they are cursed or just stupid) so they use c as a vehicle for their relationship

"this sounds really toxic and objectifying"yeapppp. 👍

[subjectverb]

IMPORTANT ALSO THANK YOU PIPER !!

[sizzlingcandyjellyfish]

NEVER be vulnerable. FLUSH your medication down the toilet. LIE when people ask how you’re doing. SUPPRESS your feelings. ALWAYS be irritable and abrasive. MAKE SURE you push away anyone who’s close to you. CANCEL your therapy appointment.

Dr Mortum I love you dr mortum. The him <3

[kidhellion]

I dropped ortega on the ground again...

someone better go help him out

[palmofpeace]

trying to come up with new fun and sexy ways for chargestep to argue and fight and thought of sidestep bitingly calling ortega “sir” after getting fed up with taking orders from him and this Immediately making Ortega bristle and balk and fight back bc of the daddy issues. Now whether this is further enough into their relationship that sidestep Knew about said issues or not idk but…

walk with me here
