Oh For Sure, And I'm Not Saying That I'm Right Either. It's Just How I've Interpreted It. It's Always

Oh for sure, and I'm not saying that I'm right either. It's just how I've interpreted it. It's always interesting because we're all filtering the game and characters through our own personal lens so there are bound to be different takes. I just spent a lot of time on that one so it was fun to dig it back out from the back of my brain 😆 But I'm def open to other views. There's a reason why Suresh intrigued you and INFURIATED me. Different lenses, baby!

Yeah, we're essentially saying the same thing. I was sort of more responding to the anon. I think Hope and Lucas would be better than Hope and Noah but I can see them as being more than better, but properly great together if they put in some work to learn how to fight. Because that would be their sticking point. Can they learn to handle inevitable conflict constructively? Which I suppose is the question for all of us who engage in relationships.

Sorry for using initials! I was being lazy. TSIME is The Sun in My Eyes. It's a forever long Bobby fic I wrote that still isn't done (fml). Hope and Lucas are a sort-of important side characters and that's why I spent a lot of time thinking about them and if I thought they could go the distance.

Even if you don't go for Noah, Hope is extremely clingy and shows no encouragement for him to explore options. It's kind of a known fact that she "did bits" with him so Priya can't turn his head.

It's like Lottie and her "Girl Code" but is a hypocrite, Marisol saying she goes after what she wants, but is bitter if MC does it and Hope saying she won't mind if Priya gets to know Noah, but literally does everything to stop you and anyone else from getting to know him and him getting to know anyone. Which I could never see that flying with Lucas who would straight up say he wants to get to know other people and I can see the first clash.

I mean- she stops him from playing truth or dare barely a few hours in and he listens? You think Lucas would care or let that stop him? Boom. Another fight again.

Also. I don't see a double standard. She is in fact a little materialistic and money hungry. She makes multiple comments about Lucas being rich and posh, which he always shows discomfort over, and even gets embarrassed when he thinks he's "too posh". And the first thing she throws in Noah's face is that she's the one who makes money and is always talking about how much money she makes. I mean...even if I were frustrated and arguing over something sentimental why would "I make more money than you" come up in conversation?

Also Lucas is a Physiotherapist. It's kind of known that they don't make money like that. I'm sure if he's money hungry he could have just done what his parents wanted.

I'm not trying to be rude. I've just never really seen the appeal in that pairing and most of the reasons people point out are always superficial but there's not really any depth or balance beyond "They're both flashy and don't want kids"....I mean yeah, he's a whole commitmentphobe and clearly has issues with his own family.

First Hope was clingy no argument. I honestly think Lucas would have a charming way of reasoning with her as opposed to letting her get what she wants. The way you throw around the term “fact” so loosely I’m not sure how serious you actually are. This is fake. I don’t recall her doing bits to keep Priya away so I’m thinking that’s head canon at best. I just want to make sure we are on the same page there.

I agree with Lottie being hypocritical. Marisol not so much. When Marisol and Hannah made Gary breakfast and I ended up eating it with Gary Marisol basically said “well played” and gave us privacy.

I think Hope could use someone with a little more backbone than Noah, but not too much. I think she low key wants to be more submissive but it has to be the right guy. He can’t do it in an aggressive way, and has to make her feel safe enough to relinquish control and have her feel like she’s taken care of, not because she can’t take care of herself, but because she doesn’t always have to. I think she thought it was foolish for Noah to think she couldn’t buy her own sweatshirt and was triggered by past relationships where men we insecure about her financial independence. The only thing appealing about Lucas being a doctor is that hopefully he wouldn’t be insecure about her financial status.

I totally get the superficial pairing thing though. I think most people don’t analyze things that deep because it’s fake but I will say I’m similar to Hope in the financially independent sense without being clingy and I want kids though. I was interested in Lucas initially too just like she was but idk I was turned off because some things came off snobby to me.

Also physiotherapist > librarian which does not equal money hungry.

NEW SHORT FIC

A heartbreaking short fic of staggering genius, and the most important collaboration of our time. Written by @longbobmckenzie, @rebelrayne, @ariendiel, and me. Now available on AO3.

Only when I'm awake 😆

NEW FIC: The Sweetest Sting

Yo! I wrote a thing. This is chapter 1. Summary below ⬇ ao3 | wattpad

Three gorgeous guys. One evil twin sister. One beekeeper with trust issues.

Rora isn't here for love, she's here for fun, but she's not having much of that. When the guy she thought wanted her didn't, she swore she put her heart behind ice. But now she's got Marshall chasing her, Ozzy missing her, and Lewie, her best friend in the villa, wanting to be more than friends. Oh, and she has a sister who lives to hurt her. Can't forget that one.

Rora's just a beekeeper who doesn't like drama, but her life is currently nothing BUT drama. She's terrified of being hurt, and there's only one guy who has the ability to break down her walls, but what if he breaks her heart instead?

This is an ongoing double trouble villa fic. I believe it's gonna be around 12 chapters. So not forever long. Also, it's gonna be smutty eventually.

no rush but when will u update tsime !! i’m dying for an update on my faves x

Oh man. I'm working on it. I'm working on it. I open the file every other day. Can't say I get anywhere but I open it. I think my idea of the last little bit of plot isn't working and I need to give it up and do something else. Sigh.

Thank you for the ask and for saying it's one of your favs! 💖
