FEM NABUMCPRICINGHAM FLOWER CROWNS IT'S SO CLICHE BUT ADORABLE (kay is probably allergic to them though which makes it even better)

Awwwww ^-^ Thank you :) I feel like this should be enough to purge the world of sin; just four beautiful girls, in a beautiful field, spending a beautiful day together weaving beautiful flower crowns (and yeah, Kay is sneezing and her eyes are watering but there’s no fucking way she’s going to quit before everyone else is ready to go :D she’ll suffer through and be happy, goddamn it).

annie and kay just being such dorks together and having so much fun with each other and naba and connie and it's so wonderful (annie trying to get them all to wear costumes to the star wars premiere)

God bless ^-^

(And what do you mean, ‘try’? Naba and Kay go as Padme and Anakin, and Connie and Annie are Leia and Han, and they all look awesome).

[1ll-def1ned]

just thinking about the dresses that naba and connie and annie would wear make me so happy, like casual sundresses or fancier ones to dress up (kay would be more of shorts and cute pants i bet) and such (and i bet annie would totally rock a cute romper and look adorable), also, no one knows how, but naba gets winged eyeliner right on the first try, every single time

Aww, yes! Naba would be sort of half and half, and Annie usually prefers pants, but Connie wears dresses and skirts /all the time. And, yes, Kay totally rocks pants (though she has this one dress, and when she wears it she looks like Anastasia except that it’s deep red). Awwww, Annie in a romper sounds adorable! Gosh, she would love that faded pastel thing, I think. And the fandom geek, of course :) she wears a lot of t-shirts, as many as she can get away with, and you can’t catch her in pants other than sweats unless it’s actually winter time. Naba is simple but bold in her style; she likes intense colors and strappy heels and earrings and all that fun stuff. But yes, the three of them in sundresses with Kay in a white blouse and denim shorts sounds absolutely breathtakingly lovely ^-^

:D Perfect. She has very steady hands.

annie cunningham loves playing with her girlfriends' hair, and she braid's connie's all the time

Sounds like somebody is a big fan of Annie ^-^ (Me too, anon)

Yes, I love this! She really likes having something to do with her hands (she likes giving massages, too, but those are entirely appropriate when they’re out and about). I bet she always keeps ponytail holders around her wrist in case whatever she braids or twists or styles looks good :)

i feel like annie cunningham wears those cute fandom hairbows you can get on etsy. she'd totally rock them.

Hell yeah, she would.

Even better, she counts wearing one as ‘dressing up’. You bet your ass she wears them with formal wear for her presentations and interviews.

all of them relaxing as much as they can on their short vacation to the beach in the summer (even if it's just a few days). naba loves it so much and annie is so excited, and everyone gets to relax and not stress for once

!!!!NabuMcPricingham at the beach, in their adorable swimsuits! Kay would definitely be in a solid colored one piece, probably with a coverup most of the time. Annie would be the same, or else she’d wear a swim shirt and some cute bottoms. She’d be the nerd to wear goggles :D Naba has a different bikini top for every day, and with her swim skirt thing she looks fucking amazing. Connie has a modest tankini thing at first, but with lots and lots of encouragement, she ends up wearing a skimpy (sexy) little bikini in pink, and all her girlfriends clap and cheer when she strips off her cover up. She blushes, but then other people join in, and she just about dies.

Annie is an actual, literal walking ray of sunshine.

Nobody knows the sunshine has never had her father say he loves her. Nobody knows the sunshine hasn’t had a friend since third grade when some middle schooler pulled down her skirt (and underwear) in the middle of the school parking lot. Nobody knows she didn’t go to a friend’s house for the entirety of her high school career. Nobody knows the only time she went to spend to spend the night at someone’s house in middle school she accidentally showed up two hours early for the birthday party and the birthday girl told her she couldn’t spend the night because sleepovers were for ‘cool people’. Nobody knows that she has pretended to be a twenty year old man on reddit to be taken seriously regarding the things she loves (Star Wars, Star Trek, and Lord of the Rings, the only things that never asked her to leave).

But that’s okay to her. She’s okay with being on her own. She really does care about people, so much so that she doesn’t understand how they can be cruel to each other. She’ll cry at almost anything, and she isn’t ashamed of it anymore. Annie has stretch marks everywhere, and even though she’s not totally okay with them, she’ll tell herself she’s a rare kind of alien, the last of her kind, sent to earth to save her, and the stretch marks are just the manifestation of her alien form (and so is the acne and the frizzy straw-colored hair that she usually doesn’t even try to style).

Annie is so, so grateful for Uganda, not just for bringing her to her wonderful girlfriends, but because she feels like it saved her from herself. She knew she was getting bitter and angry, but being somewhere where people love you, respect you, and you’re the one who’s giving them hope for a better tomorrow, gives her a new purpose, a new outlook on life. She learns in Uganda that the most important things on earth are other people, and she promises she’ll never forget that.

Nabulungi is breathtakingly beautiful; the type of person where you see their selfies and can’t believe you’re not looking at a model. She is tall and slimly built, and it takes a while for her to save up for top surgery even once she gets to the U.S., but people stare (in all the best ways) when she walks into a room. She’s like Lola’s (from Kinky Boots) innocent, sweeter younger sister. Makeup is hard to afford in Northern Uganda, but Mafala did what she could for her daughter, assuring her that she looked lovely anyway. And she did; she has high cheek bones and bright eyes and a sharp nose and an undeniably feminine curve to her lips; hardly anyone in Kitguli questioned when she changed her name to ‘Nabulungi’. Her voice is smooth and deep and soft, and Annie melts when she hears it. Naba is kind and sweet and gentle, and when they watch all of Kay’s Disney movies and Tiana’s character just doesn’t seem to fit, Kay christens her 'Cinderella’ without a thought. She really is their Cinderella, selfless and hopeful and so genuinely good that the other three often ask themselves what they did to deserve her. But she’s practical, too, and down-to-earth; you can’t live in Uganda without becoming so. She keeps the other three together (and from killing each other, sometimes), and makes sure the rent gets paid and the apartment gets cleaned and assignments get turned in and that Connie doesn’t gave a nervous breakdown from trying to micromanage or do all of that on her own. She’s also funny, and definitely the best at puns.

Her weaknesses? She doesn’t show her true feelings often, and nobody will know something is wrong unless they ask. She feels guilty that she gets to enjoy the freedom that America brings, while her friends and family are still in danger in Uganda. She can be selfish in that she doesn’t often explain herself to anyone. She is definitely not a follower, and, like Kay, bristles at being told what to do. She also has some trouble with Western social conventions (which makes for some very, very interesting stories to tell her mother back home).
