Olivia AND Jacquelyn for the character ask game!!!!!! I need to hear from the authority on such matters 🖤💕

My Jacquelyn breakdown is in Vera’s ask!! Thank you so much Kit ily!!!

(btw talkin bout Netflix!Olivia here tho i also absolutely love Book!Olivia)

how i feel about this character

as everyone is aware i am truly and somewhat deeply in love with Olivia and i’m honoured to be like, known as an Olivia-centric blog and an Olivia-centric person (!!), like, to be heralded as Olivia!!! Hanna @olivia-caliban and i are really out here!! Olivia Cali-Stans!!

i love Olivia a lot. so much. Maybe too much. i love her for her adorkable charm, the very subtle and sadly barely-there grey morality netflix gave her, her entire aesthetic both at the Prufrock Library and Caligari Carnival… i love. 

all the people i ship romantically with this character

as i mentioned in my Jacquelyn answer!! my favourite ship is Olivia x Jacquelyn x Esmé. Squaleszkaban, if you will. as i said i have a lot of feelings about them i feel like they would be hilarious but also adorable but also hot together 

and some honourable mentions!!:

- Olivia x Jacquelyn on their own and yes i wanna cry again - Olivia x Esmé which yes would have a lot of Tension as well but theycould also be cute!! a little like, idk Beauty and the Also Beauty But Beastly? if that makes sense. taming the lion. charming the snake. interesting potential.- also thanks to you Kit i also love!! Olivia x Georgina!! - i also do enjoy reading a good Olivia x Jacques fic if they have the vibe of Joyride by Roxette or You May Be Right by Billy Joel or You Better, You Bet by The Who. like, Jacques being an Idiot and Olivia being irritated but also thinking “that’s my idiot”                                                           

my non-romantic OTP for this character

- again Olivia and Jacques. since the books imply they might be cousins i would love to read some cousinly shenanigans with them!!- i feel like Olivia and Larry would be good friends too!! There would definitely be a lot of Larry wingmanning for Jacquelyn in that dynamic lmao- Kit and Olivia would be good friends as well i feel!! especially if they learned they’re cousins- Olivia and Justice Strauss would be cute!!!

Basically Olivia is a Mom Friend and would be friends with as many of the SBG as she can bc she’s just like that

my unpopular opinion about this character

Idk if this is unpopular as such but if she has a neurodivergence it is ADHD. i am Olivia and i have Spoken. on my own travels as of late i’ve been wondering about this wrt myself (i ain’t neurotypical lmao) so like. she has ADHD tell your friends!

one thing i wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

as much as i adore adorkable Netflix!Olivia who is a lot like Sara Rue’s recent characters eg. Claude from Less Than Perfect, Dora from Impastor and now Nell from The Rookie (where Nathan Fillion’s the protagonist) i would’ve liked to see what the books implied. a kind of bitchy but definitely more conflicted and upset and unsure Olivia. Sara can definitely do bitter and bitchy and conflicted, watch Gypsy 83; Netflix could’ve kept Olivia’s adorkableness but added a little more bitchiness. like, we see it with Nero and definitely with Carmelita and sometimes she’s unimpressed with Jacques during TEE and the beginning of TVV but like. a little more. other than that i absolutely love Olivia and this is one of your Olivia Cali-Stans signing off

[olivia--caliban]

jacquelyn!

Kit @mssqualor also requested Jacquelyn so!! Thank you both ily!!!

how i feel about this character

Jacquelyn is…. Iconique. the start of Netflix’s whole sexy spy trend and only as helpful to the Bauds as the standard SBG adult can get but i can forgive her. because i love her. i love her whole wardrobe especially her leather vest and jacket from TRR and TVV, oh and her motorbike and her whole like, cool vibe. she’s cool af. i can see her being a one outfit lesbian outside of work (leather jacket, grey top, leather pants, gay af boots) and working on a cool old car (reminder that i love Mechanic!Jacquelyn thank you Gracie!!) while some classic or hard rock plays on the radio. like. so cool. 

tldr i’m love Jacquelyn i’m love her a lot

all the people i ship romantically with this character

my absolute favourite ship for Jacquelyn is Olivia x Jacquelyn x Esmé. Squaleszkaban, if you will. i have a lot of feelings about them i feel like they would be hilarious but also adorable but also hot together 

a few honourable mentions though!:- Olivia x Jacquelyn on their own. adorable. brb gonna cry - Jacquleyn x Esmé on their own would have a lot of Tension so owo- Jacquelyn x Sally though i like R x Sally (i could go on forever abt my ideas but basically Jacquelyn and R are two characters)- Jacquelyn x Justice Strauss i’ve seen as well! i think that’d be cute but i kinda prefer them more as close friends, like, Justice Strauss spoils Jacquelyn bc she’s lonely i think that’s cute

my non-romantic OTP for this character

Jacquelyn, Gustav and Larry. the ultimate gay bro trifecta. also Jacquelyn and Larry (mission bros!!) and Jacquelyn and Gustav (lesbian muse gay artist) is good v good as well. 

i see Kit and Jacquelyn as very close, kinda like sisters, and i see Jacquelyn and Jacques teasing each other a lot 

my unpopular opinion about this character

i don’t think i have one?? 

one thing i wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

i guess a little more explanation as to how Jacquelyn, like, fit into everything? i know it was hard when Sara Canning left but like. so many questions. how did Jacquelyn get into VFD in the first place? does she have the tatt? how does the whole Winnipeg thing really work? (i myself hc her and R as stepsisters) but like. interesting questions about an interesting character whom i love a lot so thanks for comin to my ted talk

Hello I'm here for the ship asks 👀 some curve balls: Jacquelyn/Georgina and Beatrice/Kit and some less curve balls: Beatrice/Esmé and Jacques/Jerome. Thank you!! xoxo

Cheers for these asks Kit! 🤝Thank you!

Jacquelyn/Georgina

D - a true neutral on this one! Jacquelyn isn’t a character I’ve engaged w/ very much, but thinking of these two reminds of something much more business related or veering towards respectfully antagonistic. Bet they’d be thick as thieves in another world tho.

Beatrice/Kit

B for, ‘it’s really cute’, isn’t exactly the right phrase. However! I love this yearning of this ship, which I imagine was never fully actualised. Really dig imagining a younger Kit’s secretive affection and tones of jealousy and Beatrice not quite fully reading the situation (does she? is this? am I?) Definitely a, what if, situation founded on mutual care, respect and genuine. Good energy!

Beatrice/Esmé

Ah. My girls. I can’t give this an ‘A+’ for OTP (because...they never really get anywhere) but this is a solid A. So many aspects to these two and potential for being a genuinely fun, enjoyable energy that’s lost in a moral vfd mindwarp & mutual intensity. My favourites! 

Jacques/Jerome

This is getting a B, because it is really cute. I don’t know why the Snickets must pine, but I can get behind Jacques both being infatuated w/ and wanting to care for a man who is...like Jerome, haha. Again, not something I see as particularly reciprocated or fully realised or acted upon, but definitely very sweet.

Fanfic asks!!!!!! 2, 3, 15, 18, 19! 💖💖💖

Thank u kindly for this ask game! 

2. What’s next on your ‘to-read’ list? (Fan fiction or otherwise)

I’m very....very behind on the few books I’m reading atm. Next on my list is a re-read of Howard’s End - unpopular choice that I refuse to let die. I will not stop.

3. Do you prefer canonverse or AUs?

Canonverse for me! So much going on & yet so much freedom and a fun, normal-ish city background to fall back on.

15. Post the last line you wrote without context.

This is an OFFICIAL IOU. Last line I wrote has already been published and I haven’t dared write anything since. Call on me soon!

18. Do you have a fic reading/writing routine?

My fic-writing regime is pretty scatty. I have (1) idea and then chase it down. Sometimes w/ music of the right vibe on too! All of the actual good work is in the editing which I try & do the next day w/ fresh eyes - this is also fun. 

19. What’s your favourite character headcanon?
