for all of the ej slander we have endured this season, i am willing to accept an apology in one of four ways:
1.) ej gets an emotional scene in which he breaks down and has a heartfelt song dedicated to him, like all of the other struggling characters have gotten thus far (some have gotten multiple songs).
2.) ej gets a hot villain bop in which he corrupts the entire show as a last screw you all to the cast who has been nothing but inconsiderate of him
3.) ej gets a heartfelt ballad in which we can all begin to sympathize for him until it takes a sickening turn into a hot villain bop
4.) ej gets with ricky
reblogging because why is this my most popular post lmao. as much as i would love option 3 the most, i think weāll be lucky to get option 1. anyways, happy hsmtmts season finale eve <33
I can't believe a couple years ago having two males do the 'look back' in Andi Mack was a massive win, actually getting to say the word gay was a massive win, and two boys holding hands was a massive win
And now with HSMTMTS we have a same sex couple from season 1, and we have Ashlyn have fireworks when hugging Val, after episodes of build up, and her actually being super happy she's discovered this about herself
Andi Mack had Cyrus crying when coming out, had him telling each person being a big thing, and HSMTMTS just got to do it in such a lovely way where it just wasn't a big deal, like it was, but there weren't loads of coming out scenes (I'm assuming there will be one with big red) and she was so excited
And it's just lovely seeing how far Disney has come - lord knows they have a long a** way to go - but it's truly lovely seeing how far they've come now
Like Joshua Rush said, Andi Mack walked so other shows could run
And when I think back to when I was a kid watching Disney there was not one small even rain drop of representation for anyone who wasn't straight - like I stopped watching Disney consistently before good luck Charlie had that war with parents over there being a same sex couple in a scene for like 10 seconds, so you're talking way back in the day
Disney has so far to go but they've come so far and I think celebrating wins is important
itās the way that my dreams of caswen singing the boys are back could finally come true i have so much emotional energy put into this concept and i need it so badly please tim federle iāll do anything
RICKY & EJ + nicknames HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL: THE MUSICAL: THE SERIES - SEASON 3
heartstopper audio for byler <:,)))
i havent made an actual animatic in like forever, so this is basically made as if it was a comic, like with the speech bubbles and that stuff, so dont mind how its made in that sense.
Itās hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you. for @scndchnce š
and when ricky and ejās friendship is completely tattered again once ricky starts dating the girl ej was just dating, then what ?
Iāve been thinking a lot about why the new triangle thing in hsmtmts doesnāt feel right and doesnāt make me emotional. Because weāve already seen this. The first season, Nina not being able to decide whoās better for her, the ex or the bf she doesnāt even love.
Season 3 doesnāt make it any more unique and interesting at that point. Weāre just watching at the same exact thing. But you know what can change that? Ricky finally going for the opposite, for Ej this time. Could you imagine the glow up, the development of Ricky as a character? š like, that would be so much more interesting and breathtaking.
plot twist ej has a panic attack cause of directing the musical, andĀ ricky knows how to handle them, but with ej itās different and ricky kisses him midĀ panic, stops and they look into each others eyes and ricky is like so you better?ā ej āyeah yeah um thanks!āĀ avoiding each other as much as possible
Ricky was by his side in an instant, tapping out a breathing pattern on his collarbone with one hand and rubbing circles into his back with the other, and god he hated being this weak to need help how can he call himself a directorā
āBreathe.ā The voice was quiet and was almost drowned out by his thoughts, but EJ grasped onto the syllable as best he could, and he gulped up so much air like it was water, exhaling reluctantly because honestly that was more oxygen than he needed.
There was nothing there, only Ricky, only understanding and concern and caring.
āAre you ever going to actually say anything?ā EJ choked out as his breathing evened out bit by bit. It was so quiet and he was drowning and it felt like he was back home and alone and trapped and there was too much distance he was all alone again heād always be alone no matter what he did god heās such a messā
Ricky opened and closed his mouth. āSorry,ā he mumbled.
āWhy?ā
āReassurance has proven to make people feel worse,ā Ricky said to the floor. āIt probāly has to do with āpeople believe that Iāll do well what if I fail Iāll fail them tooā or something. Might be wrong.ā
EJ blinked. What does this have to do with it?
āWhat do you think that we, the cast, expect from you?ā Ricky asked, looking up to meet his gaze. Thereās no malice in his tone or in his face, only genuine concern that made EJās throat close up.
āIāā he tried, but choked on the single letter. It propped his mouth open, but nothing else could come out.
Ricky looked briefly at his faceānot his eyes though, below themāwith what looked like wistfulness and a tad bit of regret. There was a brief bit of hesitation before lips ghosted EJās forehead. āYouāll always fail if your expectations donāt allow mistakes,ā Ricky said, eyes avoiding his own in favor of looking at the wall. āWhenās the last time youāve let yourself make a mistake instead of beating yourself up over it?ā
āIācanāt remember,ā EJ whispered, and oh, that hurt Ricky to hear.
Ricky reached out to squeeze his hand once before letting go. āItās normal to make mistakes. Itās expected. Please, please donāt burn yourself out trying to squeeze out any and all room for mistakes. Youāll need the energy for when they happen, because they will happen.ā He stood up.
āDonāt go.ā The words were out in a rush, surprising both Ricky and EJ.
āOkay,ā Ricky said. Neither knew where to go from there.
āIāuhmācan I have a hug?ā EJ stumbled over his words.
Rickyās eyes softened in that absolutely adorable way, wrapping his arms around EJ as a silent āyesā.

i know there wasnt really like,, kissing,, i just decided Yes I Shall Interpret This Because Writing Panic Attacks Is My Jam
also scrolled up and wait you had ricky knowing how to handle panic attacks WHOOPSIES
sorry bout that chief lol
i,, added to it at least? lol
does anyone have any caswen fic recs where they do play love interests in a show together? please :ā)
i legit canāt think of any of them playing love interests in a show am i forgetting one? I feel like we must have at least one??
however you also said any suggestions so ima drop some of my favs hehe (fair warning itās been a while since I read them, also this spiralled a lot fjfkf Iām sorry for how many there areā)
the entirety of the Interpersonal series, by anonymous, itās 3 cute, short oneshots. the third one is probably my favourite because its so funny and I love the interaction with redlyn sm, the second one has a special place in my heart itās so well done I adore it, the first one was so good i forgot it wasnāt canon
weāre in love (and weāre going to make it everyoneās problem), by Stitch_Kiss, this might be the closest to what you were looking for? since they sing hsm3 songs in it. this was really good I fully recommend anyone getting into the ship it was really cute and funny I enjoyed it a LOT
Homeās a Lie (But We Donāt Have to Be), or really the entirety of the Meals & Feels series, by questionmark007 (or @cadetcama, lmk if you want untagging), it was super good I enjoyed it so much!! very cute and funny I have reread multiple times and almost put me off writing fake dating since it was so well done
is this home (is this where i should learn to be happy?), by fakecharliebrown, this fic is SO GOOD i left it a changed person frfr, idk what else to say itās just super good it rlly takes you on a journey, kinda like a rewrite of s2? but if it was better djfkd
whole Trans!EJ and Genderqueer!Ricky AU series my ABSOLUTE beloved, by @caswellprmanager, it has 4 short fics that are super fluffy and awesome, the second one is my absolute favourite itās literally so good I reread more often than i should fjfkf (the ashlyn bit in it is just SO š„ŗ like Iāll never recover)
You stole my heart (among other things), by fandomgarbage622868, a short but absolutely adorable fic, I sometimes remember it and just need a moment Iām cheesing so hard (pretty sure I mentioned it in an incorrect quote once it just sticks w you fjfkd)
If The Shoe Fits, another by questionmark007 (or cadetcama), itās so good and definitely one of my favs itās just so SOFT Iāve never been so emotional about shoes before fjfkf
Rushing Rivers, by anonymous, I randomly think of the description all the time like idk why but i quote it to myself way too often. anyway! the fic itself is really good I love it a lot itās like a full on book idk how to describe I just recommend a lot!!!
also if you want some smaus @litrallytyrus has some amazing, finished ones I fully recommend! (materlist links: loverboy, starstruck, paperwork valentine)
I have a lot of appreciation and love to everyone who writes fics and there are so many talented people writing for caswen I love so many of the fics in the tag, even if I didnāt put them here <33 I hope my little rambles make someone want to read them bc they are genuinely super good!
