Wait. Wait. WAIT. I missed something. I missed something huge. IS JON PLAYING A MALE ESCORT IN SOMETHING?!?!?!?! THIS IS REAL???? THIS IS HAPPENING??? WHERE THE FUCK WAS I?!??
WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN?! LAUREN! LAUREN, LAUREN, LAUREN!! Jon is producing and starring in a sequel of sorts to American Gigolo where he’s playing the lead character 18 years after the movie took place. It’s only a pilot order right now but we’re all crossing our fingers, arms, and legs for a full pick up. Oh, and it would be on Showtime where the tits and bits are favorably shown ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Omg I saw your tags! I'm so glad you loved it!! (and apologies for giving you a scare! ;) )
Haha no worries! It only proved how much I got attached to those characters and your story, you have no idea how much I’ve enjoyed reading all 3 books.
Kudos to you for being so talented and keeping me hooked till the end :)
Ship ask thingy! X, Y, and/or Z!! :D <3333
Ahhhh~! Thank you for asking!
X - A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.
- Oh my god, where do I start with my all time favorite trope…. There’s so many to choose from, but I guess my all time favorite is a tie between College AUs and Soulmate AUs! Honestly, if I had to choose, life or death, I’d probably choose Soulmate/Reincarnation AUs because who doesn’t love the whole ‘they find each other in different lifetimes’ shtick! I could go from fandom to fandom, and THAT is my bread and butter!
Y - What are your secondhand fandoms (i.e., fandoms you aren’t in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)?
- Oh my god, do I have any? I mean, I haven’t been a part of a ton of fandoms this time around, and everyone I follow is pretty much on the same page, but I guess the closest secondhand fandom is Stranger Things? Love like two of the characters out of the entire show, but don’t really care much for it as a whole? Doesn’t mean I don’t flail when I see cool stuff! Seriously talented gif makers in that fandom! I’m sure there are other ones, but I honestly can’t think of anything other one!
Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)
- What have you DONE, Lauren~! Okay, so like, I’m working on this modern AU fic (or rather I’m working on two fics, both different pairings/fandoms) but the one I’m mainly putting all my effort into is a modern day!AU of Tombstone because I’m in love with the idea of Wyatt Earp being a modern day retired U.S. Marshal who has to deal with his best friend, Doc, the (slightly) drunk gambling dentist who comes from old money, his brothers who don’t work for the Marshal department per-say, but are Sheriff deputies in the town he calls home. Insert slow-burn best friends to lovers, and you’ve got what I’m currently working on!
The other one, is one I’ve been ranting and raving to you about while I was still in school! Duncan Carmello as a resident of Stars Hollow! While I’ve only written one fic for Duncan/Jess, I plan on expanding on it with other stories! Honestly, Duncan was made for Stars Hollow! And I could rant about that for hours~!
yesssss can we please talk about Jon in Wind River because I'm STILL torn up from seeing the movie (just last night, I'm sure I'll never recover)
LISTEN IT HAS EVERYTHING A JON FANGIRL COULD POSSIBLY WANT???
EVERYTHING??? IN SUCH A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME??? HOW DARE??
LIKE I’M STILL JUST LIKE O_O FROM IT ALL
Ship ask game! 8 or 27?? Please?
8. How does one comfort the other when the other is in distress/having a panic attack/crying?
The two of them are not a particularly vocal couple (unless they’re really mad) so they tend to communicate in touches and caring gestures.
Karen has nightmares sometimes and wakes up panicked. If Frank is there he shushes her calm, holding her close so she feels safe. Karen’s distress is usually only caused by a few things (misplaced guilt, regret, or fear for those she loves) and Frank always seems to know exactly which one it is. He’s observant, and Karen has tells, so much so that Frank knows sometimes even before she does that they’re in for a bad night. Faraway looks, worrying at her bottom lip while flipping through her files, evenings that seem go go later and later until she finally drops from exhaustion. Those nights he lies awake, listening to her breathing so he can nudge her awake before things get too terrible.
Frank’s moments of distress are a little more unpredictable and he usually manages to keep the outward signs to a minimum, and yet Karen knows anyway. Like I said before, kastle cares in gestures. She makes him coffee before he can ask for it, the expensive slow roast she knows he likes but never mentions, pulls up their case files without being asked so they can go over them first thing, walks max during the day while Frank’s sleeping, makes him eat real food and actually enjoy it instead of treating it like fuel. And then there’s the touches, her forehead against his before he leaves, a brief pause so they can breath each other in, a silent I’m with you that he didn’t know he needed until the tension is rolling out of his shoulders and the strange heaviness in his chest is lifting.
And then there are the displays of bone deep grief, exceedingly rare, but unexpectedly barreling into Frank like a runaway train. Grief that Karen can’t even begin to touch, and she knows this, but still holds onto him for dear life, not letting him slip down into the dark. She’s never heard anything as heartbreaking as the sob of a man who’s lost his entire family. Empathy courses through her, tears sliding down her own cheeks as she cradled his head in her lap. They grieve together because there’s nothing else to do, and when it passes she doesn’t see him for a few days. It’s a distance he needs and she gives him that.

Amaya, I just saw your tags on my Bloody Sunrise post and I wanted to thank you for getting my book! I'm thrilled you're enjoying it!! Thank you thank you thank you!
You’re welcome! You’re so talented and It’s so beautifully written that didn’t take me much to fall into that world and hit that buy button seconds after reading the sample. ❤️
I wish I’d have found it earlier, but also not cause now I get to read them both back to back.
