Alex, looking at Bree: Wow, she’s so pretty...

Conner: Don’t feel like that, you’re pretty too.

Alex: I’m not jealous, Conner. I’m gay.

Brotherhood

Based on the scene from Friends

“This may be a bit awkward-” Conner started.

“Conner, if you’ve fallen in love with me, it’s not really a great time,” Bree said without looking up from her book. “On account of I’m marrying your sister tomorrow.”

“No, it’s not that,” Conner rolled his eyes. “I have something to say. And this isn’t coming from your friend, it’s coming from Alex’s older brother.”

“You’re younger than her.”

“Shut up,” Conner snapped. “Look, all I want to say is that I’m happy for you, but if you ever hurt my little sister-” he ignored the look Bree gave him “- I will kick your ass.”

A pregnant pause filled the room before Bree burst out laughing.

“What?” Conner asked in surprise. “You don’t believe me?”

“Oh Conner,” Bree said in a condescending tone between fits of uncontrollable laughter. “You never kick my ass.”

“I could too,” he exclaimed at the exact moment Alex re-entered the room.

“What’s going on?” she asked.

“Conner threatened to kick my ass if I ever hurt you,” Bree explained as tears filled her eyes, and Alex instantly joined the laughter.

“Hey!”

Alex and Bree exchanged a glance before facing him, not bothering to hide their amusement.

character ask game thing, alex bailey

Favourite thing about them - There's so many things, but the reason I love her so much is because she is literally just a character version of me. And her name. That may or may not have been the real reason I read the books. I’m totally not biased lol

Least favourite thing about them - Her lack of empathy for herself. Like, from an analytical POV, it's great, but from a reader POV, there have been more than one scenes I've bawled my eyes out to.

Favourite line - *screams because there's so many* It's not my favourite line, but I really love the use of "My most educated analysis, with all means of science and technology in mind, is that it's magic..."

brOTP - My favourite part of the books has always been the relationship between Alex and Conner. But I also love the dynamics she has with their friends

OTP - I don't see Alex ending up with anyone in canon (it's a long explanation, maybe another post lol) but @constant-brainrot can tell you I've spent the past month fangirling over Breelex

nOTP - Her and Rook. I said it (again, long explanation, I have a lot of thoughts on Rook lol)

Random headcanon - Her hands drastically change temperature with her mood. If she's upset or tired, they are freezing. When she's happy, they're pleasantly warm, and when she's angry, they're burning hot

Unpopular opinion - Every opinion is unpopular in a fandom this size. So, I guess my biggest opinion about her, and I guess it's unpopular as I haven't really had anyone explicitly agree with me, but she is absolutely my favourite character in the series, and one of my top 3.

Song I associate with them - I could actually give you a paragraph for each how and how they work, but we don't have time for that. A real quick few: Zombie by Damned Anthem, Warrior by Beth Crowley, Lost Boy by Ruth B., Three and Daughter by Sleeping at Last, and Like Real People Do by Hozier

Favourite picture/gif of them - There's like 3 pictures of her total lol. You don't get to have favourites.

Exhausted

“How are things going with Arthur?” Bree asked nicely.

“Good,” Alex said, unsure why the word was faltering behind her teeth. Because it was, right? “Really good, we’re meeting up later.” Maybe she imagined it, but she could have sworn she saw a flash of pain behind Bree’s eyes. “And it’s going well with Conner?”

“Yeah,” Bree said a little too enthusiastically. “Of course. It’s great, he’s … great.” She couldn’t tell why she felt a slight twinge in her gut. She meant it, right?

Neither of them were lying, not really.

But then why did they feel so exhausted?

Distance

“I’m sorry that I haven’t been able to talk more often,” Alex said into the tiny piece of her mirror as she sat in the gardens. “Everything’s just been really busy.”

“It’s okay,” Bree assured. She was perched on her bed, relieved at the chance to actually talk for the first time in several weeks. Between school, Fairy Council business, and a really inconvenient time difference, the girls had found little time to spend together. “We’re doing our best.”

“Yeah,” Alex let out a long sigh. “I did not expect inter-dimensional relationships to be this hard.”

“Worth it, though.”

“Definitely.”
