My sportsball-major brother is graduating this weekend, which means my queer ass is headed to COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA
Okay so I’m rereading TGR
And I know Nora had to “surgically remove” Kandreil from the narrative in the first 3 books (to varying degrees of success depending on the scene)
But she said that BEFORE writing TSC & TGR, right?
So why are they *like that* in TGR??
Like
Exhibit A: Neil between Andrew & Kevin on the courthouse stairs, ultimately choosing to follow Kevin instead of Andrew
Exhibit B: The entirety of Kevin & Andrew in California, including their shared custody of both a suitcase and Neil’s bullshit
If Nora was actively trying to not write Kandreil, these choices don’t make sense with the amount of context we’re given from Jeremy & Jean’s POVs
Unless
Kandreil endgame in the new post-TBC canon, as yet to be explored in The Queen’s Game 👀
Rereading TGR and while yes of course I’m excited for TBC & the Jerejean kiss, fuck I can’t wait for Kevin’s books
“Excited” isn’t the right word bc I know The Perfect Court WILL destroy me emotionally
But reading Kevin in California with Jean & Jeremy is making me desperate to learn what is going on in Kevin’s head at any given moment, and what’s next for him?
Like Jean gets “you look good, California agrees with you” from Kevin in TGR, but where will that place be for Kevin in The Queen’s Game/after?
Bc I love the Foxes but they are not helping Kevin deconstruct his trauma the way that Cat, Laila, and Jeremy are for Jean.
Anyways, Kevin Day I love you bbgirl
Queer Book Character Tournament Round One
Magnus Chase- Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard
Troy Barrett- Role Model
Mahit Dzmare- A Memory Called Empire
Andrew Perrault- Don’t Let the Forest In
Character, book, and author names under the cut
FUCK how dare you make me choose between Magnus Chase and Troy Barrett
Nora please I’m beginning you please don’t release TBC during May-July of 2027.
Feel free to release it literally any time before or after, it could be 2030 for all I care.
But I’ll have so much wedding shit to do then and I cannot be constantly on my phone translating french from all of the new fanfics that’ll be out.
The constant HR nonsense is EXACTLY why I never want AFTG to break containment.
AFTG is one of my favorite series of all time, but I rarely recommend it because so many people don’t have the patience or critical reading skills for this kind of story.
I’m so glad people stopped recommending AFTG to HR fans, bc that made me so nervous.
If the normies with no fandom etiquette are bullying fanfic authors off the face of the earth, imagine how they’d treat Nora, a very private person who already gets more shit than she deserves and is NOT primarily a romance writer.
HR threads is currently drowning in discourse about Ilya accidentally backing Shane against a wall during an argument and then immediately moving when he realized what he did. I can’t even imagine the takes they’d have on literally any interaction involving the Foxes. And I don’t want to see them.
In conclusion, please don’t let these fuckers anywhere near Andrew istg they could not handle him and do not deserve him
I want HR S2 to have the exact budget of “can afford Diamonds by Rihanna” minus one Canadian dollar
Waiting for Unrivaled and The Broken Cage at the same time is so wild
bc like on the one hand it’s “aw, I hope the Centaurs win the cup 🥹”
and on the other it’s “aw, I hope Jeremy doesn’t fucking DIE 🥺”
My fiancé and I are planning our spring 2027 wedding and I was talking to his parents about potential honeymoon ideas
His dad goes “what about Canada?”
Which is fine, except all of my knowledge of that entire country comes from Simply Nailogical and Heated Rivalry
So while his dad meant British Columbia/the west coast, my brain is just like “Ottawa ??”
How do I explain to my partner that my love for and attachment to Din Djarin has almost nothing to do with Pedro Pascal and that I was actually bummed when his helmet got taken off in the trailer
Just watched Connor Storrie’s SNL promo and now I can’t stop imagining Jean in the airport with the Trojans, asking Jeremy “but what do you mean everyone wears crocs to the airport?”
Foxes as types of color guard performers (for the like 2 people who live in this part of the venn diagram with me)
Kevin:
- Parents & older siblings did DCI
- Will name drop shows from like 20 years ago and act like you should know them
- Needs direct validation from the director or they’ll take their frustration out on everyone else
- DEFINITELY a JI (derogatory)
- Pissed that they’re not captain even though they’re not a senior
Neil:
- Feral unknowingly queer child who needed an after school activity to avoid being at home (😅😅😅)
- Stays in the gym after practice to learn cool tricks
- Channels anger into conditioning workouts & gets super strong out of spite
- Isn’t naturally talented but works really hard & makes rifle line
Andrew:
- The sabre prodigy that thinks they’re too good for flag & that everyone low-key hates bc they’re jealous
- Always gets a solo & makes the choreo harder without asking bc it was “too easy”
- Never knows the counts for the choreo when asked but is always in time
- Silently counts every drop they see in other shows
Nicky:
- The first out kid on the team who sings along to the pop girlie warm up music
- Saw the Flaggots at Philly Pride and decided to join despite having no prior athletic or musical interest
- Has watched Light Brigade’s Madonna show like a billion times on youtube
- Technique is just okay but they bring ~the dramA~ when performing
Allison:
- C*nty former competition dancer who hated all the drama but still wanted to perform
- Helps underclassmen with their hair & makeup
- Hosts the “summer sectional that’s really an excuse for a pool party” every year at her house
- An absolute beast on rifle
Renee:
-Upperclassman career flag who *could* make rifle line but simply doesn’t want to
- Helps all of the flag newbies not be too scared to let go
- Unofficially in charge of team bonding
-Bakes cookies related to the show theme for show days
Matt:
- Also plays an instrument and is therefore friends with everyone
- Knows all of the cheerleaders & football players & convinces them to come to a band/winterguard competition
- Runs the guard insta & makes the section t-shirts
Dan:
- Guard captain who is very supportive but also wants to WIN
- Very strict about conditioning days, but will always chill out if someone is on their period
- Organizes a ton of sectionals even when it’s cold and no one wants to go, but always buys pizza
Aaron:
- The straight STEM girlie who somehow ended up there
- Instead of practicing, they just complain about how hard their classes are to justify not knowing the choreo
- Got in trouble with the director for being homophobic, but the team was too small to make them quit
Seth:
- Only wants to spin rifle bc he thinks flags are “for girls”
- Refuses to try during dance warmups
- Never goes to optional sectionals
- Skips band parties for “real” parties
Bonus:
Jeremy:
- Former baton girlie who’s really good at sabre & can do a bunch of cool tricks under tosses
- Always the first to point out when someone shy/new does well
- The “GET IT!!”/“You got it!!” girlie, depending on circumstance
- Organizes bigs/littles for show day traditions
Revisiting this thought because I went to WGI Philly on Saturday with my mom and between each show we would be critiquing show design and talking about what we liked and referencing old shows that we’d seen together before, and that’s what I want for Kevin & Wymack
Shout out to everyone on AO3 who never gave up on the Razor Crest
We’re so back y’all
Everyone stop what you’re doing and look at the Hollanov pretzels my friend made
Okay so whose POV do we want for the Jerejean first kiss in TBC?
Jeremy
Jean
Both/split (see tags for my theory)
Kevin somehow
Sorry Finn & Dane but I’m cancelling my impulse Quinn subscription and subscribing to the Phatreon so I can watch the OG closeted queer situationship review Heated Rivalry instead
Tell me why being on hotel wifi blocks me from seeing any images under the Heated Rivalry tag
