i saw a picture of norman reedus and the child actor you cast as rosie😭😭 they look so adorable
is it this picture that you speak of ?!?! if yes, my bestest friend of all time forever and ever rueben sent it to me a long time ago and i still have not gotten over it
What’s something that will immediately stop reading a fanfic
oh mannnn. i don’t actually read a lot of fan fiction anyway bc i’m super picky, but the main stuff is bad grammar. my mum edits books for a living so she’s drilled grammar into me and if people are consistently using the wrong ‘your’/‘you’re’ or smth, i can’t read it.
also if the plot is just a carbon copy of smth else. like how in twd fandom, 60% of the newer fics are just bad duplicates of ‘future ghosts’. it’s boring. you can’t outdo the doer. put your rubbish rosie dixon dupe down and be creative.
was rosie's fate always sealed ? going through the book, there is a couple foreshadowing moments, but i'm just wondering if those were pure coindicides (i messed up that spelling but tumblr doesn't have autocorrect :(
as sad as it is, yes, rosie's fate was always sealed.
i had actually written out her death scene before the book was ever even published 😭 i knew that, in the end, i wanted her to get back to fraser and be at peace with him.
so all the foreshadowing was definitely intentional ! if there's one thing i love, it's foreshadowing 😛
I just read chapter 72 of Future Ghosts and it made me so sad :( why was Daryl so mean to herrrr
giving me an excuse to talk about alexandria!rosie+daryl!!! i wish i could have written more of this era because it felt very homely and domestic and i just miss it. i miss their silly little family. anyway:
as soon as they got to alexandria is when daryl started feeling like rosie's real, proper dad. of course, before that, he felt like she was his kid. even as early as in season one, he would find himself taking care of her; glancing over at her during meals to make sure she was eating, making sure she had a place to sleep each night, and keeping track of her backpack and all of its contents. but only in alexandria did he get to do the things that dads usually did, like tucking her into bed and waking her up for school in the mornings. he wished more than anything in the world that she could have always been his. (stay with me now i promise this is going somewhere) and as soon as they were safe inside the walls of alexandria, daryl suddenly became constantly anxious about making sure rosie was okay because he was suddenly her frighteningly real, actual father figure in a semi-normal world, and neither of them were used to it. he'd send her off to school and watch out the window as she walked away, worrying about how liam and sam would decide to treat her that day. since he was so used to her being a bad sleeper, if she wasn't tossing and turning enough in her sleep, he'd get so anxious that he'd have to get up out of bed to make sure she was still alive. you can imagine how insanely panicked he felt when he went looking for her at the andersons' house and she wasn't there. he was terrified. suddenly, everything felt so real. she was his kid and he had to keep her safe. that was why he got as angry as he did in chapter seventy-two. some people seemed to think it was all about the rock and the broken window, but it wasn't. he was just so scared of losing her that he would say anything to convince her to stay safe and inside the walls. obviously, as time went on and they both adjusted to life in alexandria, his excessive anxiety started to fizzle out, but he'd still feel it creeping around in the back of his skull sometimes.
tldr: daryl is a ball of anxiety and would do/say anything to get rosie to stop doing the insane, dangerous things she, for some reason, loves to do !!!!
What David Bowie song would your OC's love or relate to in their very soul? Ya books are amazing and deserve to win awards, especially Future Ghosts!!!
this might be my favorite question i've ever gotten about my ocs so congratulations, you win!!!! at everything!!!! bonus points for having the coolest profile picture!!!
also thank you x10000. your compliment makes me want to fly to the moon!!! out of joy!!!!!
rosie - i think it is very easy to say that rosie is obsessed with rock 'n' roll suicide for obvious reasons, but also just because it's absolutely amazing. i also think she loves hallo spaceboy just for the pure chaos of it. she loves cat people (putting out fire) and rebel rebel, too.
fraser - fraser loves it ain't easy, cygnet committee, changes, blackout, and the secret life of arabia. and if he hadn't died 10 years and a month before the release of blackstar, he would love lazarus and dollar days.
warren - something in me tells me that warren absolutely loves every single song on station to station. especially tvc15. i don't know why. he just does. i can feel it in my bones. and i also think he loves life on mars? and space oddity because they make him imagine movies in his head, and he loves doing that. he also likes i'm afraid of americans because he is afraid of americans. as well as all other people too, but especially americans. and of course starman because sometimes he feels like a starman.
juni - june absolutely loves lady grinning soul, time, and the prettiest star. i also think birdie played lady stardust and rebel rebel so many times that juni was bound to love them since she was a baby. she's obsessed with the lyrics of bowie's parts in under pressure. and i don't say that solely because i am, i swear. "love's such an old-fashioned word, and love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night" destroys her. especially older juni.
mazzy - mazzy loves let's dance, cracked actor, and dancing in the street. she dances around to them over and over in her room. she sometimes lays in her bed, staring at her ceiling, thinking about how badly she wants to be an avenger while listening to heroes on repeat. also, beauty and the beast. "there's slaughter in the air / protest on the wind / someone else inside me / someone could get skinned" and "someone fetch a priest / you can't say no to the beauty and the beast". the beauty and the beast??? the crying girl and the winter soldier??
ruth - i was only gonna do my published ocs but i am doing ruth anyway because she was a bowie girl when bowie was alive!!! im so jealous of her... (no i'm not; lots of people in the 80s would want to skin me alive i bet) but anyway, ruth loves changes, speed of life, teenage wildlife, and ashes to ashes. she doesn't know it yet, but she'll spend a lot of time listening to five years pretty soon. thinking lots about the end of the world and all.
that's obviously not all my ocs but i have like 100000 of them, so i'm not gonna do all of them, but if you have a specific one you're curious about that i didn't answer for, lmk and i'll answer for them!!
Here is a very short scene I wrote in my notes a little while ago for Listen Before I Go (which I promise to actually start writing someday). It's just a silly little scene with baby Rosie in it because god I miss baby Rosie. <3
The group of three sat in an awkward, tense silence around the table. It was only awkward and tense for Luca and Fraser, though, really, because Rosie couldn't even tell that anything was off. Rosie was actually having a grand time.
"Did you know that there's a trail in Colorado where you can walk on a path with dinosaur footprints? I think, when you get your license, Fraser, we should drive there and we can live there with Luca," Rosie rambled as she picked the sausage off of her slice of sausage and pepperoni pizza.
Luca and Fraser met eyes briefly only to stare back down at their plates and wallow in the silence.
The silence didn't last long, though. "Did you know that dinosaurs swallowed rocks to help 'em grind up their food in their bellies, and chickens do the same thing?" Rosie went on.
"Eat your food, Rosie," Fraser murmured, pushing her plate closer to her.
Rosie picked up her pizza and took a big bite. She didn't wait to keep going, though. They were actually listening to her, so why not? "Did you know that fossil dinosaur poop is called dung? I wanna buy one."
"Okay, enough," Fraser huffed, pressing his fingers into his eyes and scrunching his face up. "That's not dinner table talk, Rosie. And don't talk with your mouth full, please."
FRANNIE !!!! i heard you want questions 😈
if your ocs were adults, what job would they have/what job would they want ?
YAY QUESTION!!!
rosie would be a paleontologist obviously. she would not let her lack of any sort of funds stop her. she would be researching those fossils for SURE.
i think, as a teen, juni would want to work at a flower shop, but as an adult, i think she would be a wonderful early elementary school teacher. maybe kindergarten. she's very patient, understanding, and soft, as well as being fun-loving, and i think she would do excellently teaching little kids and they would love her.
warren is a writer through and through. he's so creative and obsessed with characters, and he loves coming up with stories to tell.
ruth loves her job at the record store (even if it stresses her out sometimes) but i think, as an adult, she grows up to become a museum curator. i think she'd love collecting and curating things and doing the things museum people do.
i think fraser would be a mechanic. i just think he'd like fixing things for people.
Future Ghosts — The Battle for Tomorrow
You can see it in people’s eyes lately — that hollow flicker of someone who stopped believing in tomorrow. The world keeps spinning, but inside, something’s frozen. Dreams shelved. Purpose dimmed. It’s not weakness — it’s grief for the future that was supposed to happen. We were told to stay strong, to adapt, to keep going — but no one said how to keep faith when everything feels uncertain. Jobs vanish. Love slips. The planet burns. The feed never stops reminding us that time’s running out. You start to wonder if there’s even a reason to keep hoping. That’s what Future Ghosts speaks to — the quiet despair of a generation staring at a horizon that feels gone. But even in that darkness, light still fights to exist. Spiritual Calibration was created for that fight. A reminder that hope isn’t naive — it’s discipline. It’s the act of standing in the ashes and saying, “I will believe again.” Every glowing petal in this art represents a soul recalibrating — a spirit realigning with its source. Hang it where the first light touches your wall each morning. Let it remind you that life hasn’t ended; it’s resetting. This piece is for anyone who’s ever felt like a ghost inside their own future — a call to remember that you still belong here. If you’re standing on that edge and the weight feels unbearable — don’t face it alone. Talk to someone. A friend. A family member. Or a professional. There’s no weakness in asking for help — only strength in choosing to stay. Designed by The Broken Healer. Created to turn pain into strength. ArtHalls Gallery exists to rebuild what the world tries to erase — faith, purpose, and power in the human spirit.
