TheGiddyOwl Masterpost

Hey all! It’s been a while but I’m back on my bullshit and back on Tumblr lol. Pinning this masterpost because it turns out I missed this hell site and don’t plan on leaving for a bit.

Basic stuff about me:

Pronouns: she/her

Age: late 30s

My AO3: AstridMyrna

About my writing: I got the BA, MA, and MFA in Creative Writing with a specialty in fiction. I’ve published one short story in the real world called but mainly writing fanfiction and trying to figure out what the novel looks like to me. I had to write two in order to graduate for the MA and MFA but that was emotionally exhausting and my brain got fucked up in my novel writing classes when the most you can do is have 1-3 chapters reviewed by 20 people.

In my original fiction I like to write fantasy, science fiction, and horror, but ironically my fanfiction is down to earth versions of fantasy/sci fi series I love.

Fanfiction has been a very healing aspect, and I truly appreciate all the interactions I have had with my fics so far. ❤️

Current WIPS:

Father of the Bride (Hellcheer/Stranger Things):

When Chrissy Cunningham returns home after having been missing for a week, Phillip Cunningham cannot be more grateful that she’s safe and that life can go back to normal.

One problem: Chrissy has somehow fallen madly in love with Eddie Munson, the prime suspect for the recent killings of Hawkins students and kidnapping his daughter. Even worse, she plans on marrying him as soon as possible at the courthouse and Phil, despite his reservations, wants to give Chrissy the wedding she dreamed of.

Heart of Silk and Sawdust (TinRose/Wicked Movie)

What if Boq Woodsman came clean about his intentions for asking Nessarose to the Ozdust? Does he continue down his path to hell paved with good intentions, or does he forge a new yellow brick road that leads to his one true love?

Heart of Silk and Sawdust, Chapter 25: Love Without Your Heartbeat

Read here!

Boq decides to end his first year of Shiz with a bang before he heads home for the summer. He received a letter from Fiyero, inviting him to his castle in the Vinkus for Lurlinemas. Of course he goes to reunite with his dearest friend, and he meets someone new -- Princess Sarima.

Do other countries not tailgate? I mean I know pickup trucks aren't a thing everywhere, but they're not a necessity, even if you'd think you need a tailgate to actually tailgate. Ya don't. Just brews and brats and buds.

[likegodapple]

Off the back of a quick search: The Foxborough stadium there and the largest stadium in Scotland, Celtic Park, have about the same seating capacity, about 65,000.

The Foxborough stadium normally has 20,000 parking spaces.

Celtic Park has 800, with another 600 nearby.

You might not need tailgates, but you do need to be parking there.

I forgot, somehow, how much of America is paved (and mostly empty most of the time), especially near stadiums. Thanks for doing the research!

I don’t like this trend in media where struggling characters “have” to die. why aren’t addicts and outcasts allowed to have happy or hopeful endings anymore. I know things are bleak and people die but holy shit. the one grace of media is that you can CHOOSE to live in the best reality possible where EVERYONE can move on with their life and things can get better, not this defeatist nonsense.

cynthia will forever be my elphaba, she gave us a gift with her performance and i will cherish it always.

[sapphic-agent]

One detail that I absolutely love is that in the Wicked movies one thing they largely got rid of was Elphaba kneeling at Nessa's side in part one.

It shows that their bond goes past the caretaker role that Governor Thropp tried to force on Elphaba. It shows that they had a genuine sisterly bond where they saw each other as equals.

But in Wicked For Good Elphaba does kneel at Nessa's wheelchair. Why? Because she's asking for something. Obviously, we know this is because Elphaba is desperate and tired and just wants at least one person on her side. But from Nessa's POV, it makes it seem like her sister is forgoing their actual bond in order to placate her and get what she wants.

It's such a subtle change, but it does such a good job of telling us how their relationship dissolved between the two movies

[threephantomrey]

me: yeah so i think Nessarose is an interesting complex character and while she does shitty things, i understand her feelings and the circumstances she’s been put in since birth. she is a character that has always wanted to be loved, be her own person separate from her sister and her disability. and since the only kind of love she had experienced before Shiz was controlling and suffocating, she ends up loving someone that exact same way, and she refuses to let that person go because everyone else in her life had already abandoned her at that point, and because she was never alone before she doesn’t know how to handle being alone, which leads to her downfall, including becoming a wicked witch in the eyes of everyone.

also me: yaaasss queen kill that munchkin boy😍
