Meme dump :)

[gavingrievekinny]

aouv incorrect quotes (last one for now) (I think)

isobel: I don't think Alistair's ever gone to sleep before 5am, and it's really just concerning at this point.

isoble: let's not even talk about gavin. he wakes up at 4:45am, on the dot, every morning, without an alarm clock. it's terrifying.

***

briony: one of my talents is being stress.

isobel: don't you mean being stressed?

briony, watching innes down 6 aspirins: I don't think-

***

alistair: I'm what the victorians would call a "vile, ill-tempered and thoroughly wretched little creature".

***

alistair: I'm kind of crushing on someone, but I'm worried about telling you who it is, because you're not going to like it.

isobel: just rip the bandage off

alistair: it's gavin

isobel: put the bandage back on.

***

isobel: I had a dream I got arrested for tax evasion.

isobel: which is weird, because I don't even pay taxes.

finley: isobel, that IS tax evasion

***

carbry: *shy* are you uncomfortable?

finley: *also shy* no, I'm fine. Are you?

carbry: *slightly blushing* i'm not

finley: *also blushing* that's good.

elionor: ...

elionor: I AM

all of us villains fancasts :)))) before i begin let me say when i was reading the books i didn’t picture them at all like their descriptions and honestly im sort of giving this the percy jackson treatment because none of their descriptions are all that relevant im just going for vibes. i fully understand this will be unpopular. this is (semi) age accurate casting and also i did everything in my power to avoid accidentally casting the entire heartstopper/percy jackson/IT/stranger things cast because ive seen too many fancasts that just look like comic con panels

alistaire lowe: walk with me here. cormac hyde-corrin. i will say i do want him to dye his hair for the role. i think he is good at playing kind of horrible but alistair isn’t some evil monster and i want an actor who can also get across the awkward side and doesn’t drift too far into draco malfoy territory

isobel macaslan: so i know all the mains are supposed to be like 17 and the same age but i think that would have to be rewritten to everyone is 18 and isobel is 19 or 20. her and briony’s friendship doesn’t rely on them being the same year in school it can be easily explained but i need to find ages where it’s appropriate for her to date alistair AND reid. also i just think india amarteifio is gorgeous.

gavin grieve: aryan simhadri to me could play the nice guy who everyone assumes is going to die really well.

briony thorburn: xochitl gomez has that tough but good look i dont know to me she IS briony

finley blair: yall would not BELIEVE how difficult it was to find someone to embody finley and yall might think im crazy for it but here’s issac ryan brown.

elionor payne: just work with me on this one. momona tamada.

carbry darrow: i know it’s almost an obvious answer but idccc iain armitage is the best i can find without picking walker scobell. (i had to avoid picking percy jackson actors for everyone tbh)

hendry lowe: milo manheim has the very kind hendry look to me.

reid mactavish: jacob bertrand can very easily look like a total creep to me but also has enough charm to seem like someone it is possible to be attracted to

innes thorburn: scarlett esteves just looks very sweet and doesn’t look like a fighter

Me: *read all of us villains earlier this week*

My brain:...

Me: Don't.

My brain: HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA? A PERSON FROM OUR WORLD GETTING DROPPED INTO THEIR WORLD.

Once again, I have the brainrot, so here I will combine my interests and give you

What Bird I Think Each Champion Would Be

Most of these have little to no justification, and I also wanted an excuse to put pictures of some of my favorite birds into the tags that I visit every hour. //Slight warning for one picture with a raptor (bird) holding prey

We're going to start with the champions who went first, so:

First, for Carbry Darrow, I have the rock pigeon. Dude brings maps to the championship, and that's about all I have to go on, so he gets to be a pigeon. (Alexis Lours//Wikimedia)

Then for Elionor Payne, we have the Ward's flycatcher. Moody, dark, one might even say emo? I also needed an excuse to not have this bird be Alistair. (//eBird)

Next, to some (mostly) surviving champions and ex-champions:

I'm going to go with the Green or Guinea Turaco for Innes Thorburn. I don't have much to go on here, but the Thorburns just seem a lot like the turacos I've met. I picked the green/Guinea turaco here because it has a red wingtip. Is that too much? (SandyCole//Wikimedia)

Next on the Thorburn/Turaco train is Briony as a Bannerman's Turaco. Relatively loudly colored, but also sort of fades into the background. I heavily associate Briony with the color green, just because she wore a green dress to the opening ceremony. I also really like Bannerman's Turacos, so I might be biased. (//eBird)

I have no justification for Finley Blair as the Campo Flicker. This is purely off of vibes. (Bernard Dupont//Wikimedia)

Then we have the next three, one couple and a third wheel:

For Isobel Macaslan, I decided on a Scarlet Tanager. I went back and forth on this one, simply because the female do not have that bright red color that reminds me of Isobel's hair, but I kept it. (Bmajoros//Wikimedia)

Reid Mactavish is a Black Palm Cockatoo. I tried so hard not to have any parrots in this list, but I can't think of another bird that better fits him. This is the strongest one on my list. Dark, gangly, and a bit of an asshole is a great description for both palm cockatoos and Reid. (JJ Harrison//Wikimedia)

I picked a Pearl Kite for Hendry. It's mildly meant to go with Alistair's, but I also just definitely see Hendry as a smaller raptor. (jquental//Wikimedia)

Now for AoUV Tumblr's favorites:

I have Gavin as an Osprey. This one is also based mostly on vibes, but I feel fairly confident in this one. (Mike Baird//Wikimedia)

And Alistair as a Dark-Eyed Junco. These birds always look angry, but they're also small and fluffy. There are some much darker-colored birds of this species out there, but I think this picture much better conveyed how angry they usually look. (Craig Martin//Wikimedia)

And that's pretty much it! I hope you enjoyed my excuse to put bird pictures in the AoUV and AoOD tags :)
