- What’s that you’re reading? - It’s about cryptography. - Like… Secret messages? - Not secret: that’s the brilliant part. Messages that anyone can see, but no one knows what they mean, unless you have the key. - How’s that different from talking? - Talking? - When people talk to each other, they never say what they mean. They say something else, and you’re expected to just know what they mean. Only I never do. So, how’s that different? - Alan, I have a funny feeling you’re going to be very good at this.

Who doesn’t love a great #Enemies To Friends To Lovers trope? Or a good #High School AU trope set in a debate club where the characters are forced to work together to win?
And honestly both Jacob Latimore and Sami Gayle were so damn CHARMING in their roles. Bennett was so smug but only in the best ways possible. And Lona so damn angry and grumpy. And both of them so driven to win and get into their dream colleges and obviously fraying at the edges.
And yes also so clearly meant for each other (like I said, I just watched fanfiction).
Oh and the ‘our parents can’t stand each other’ thing was great too especially because it didn’t actually vilify either one of them (and actually both mothers were equally good parents while simultaneously capable of glaring daggers through fake smiles at each other and landing pretty vicious jabs at each other’s characters. Which was actually a pretty great side story).
I mean don’t get me wrong, for the most part it was cheesy as hell but there were certain bits that were pretty clever too. And it certainly did land one solid sucker punch near the middle that I don’t want to spoil.
Just… look at these idiots:
Owl boys: Have you ever see them in the daylight? Probably not, can survive off minimal amounts of food, hot coffee for the soul, lives in pajamas, looks tired all the time that’s because they are, neutral face makes them look like a murderer, mood swings like winter wind
Six-string boys: Always have their nose in a notebook writing song lyrics, aspiring musician, they live in music shops, walls are covered in song lyrics their own and others, becomes entranced by the radio, has at least 2 guitars, can make a rhythm with almost nothing
Spray paint boys: Too many art supplies, tattoos and piercings, very punk aesthetic, always getting in trouble for nothing, paint covered skinny jeans, always wearing the same worn out hoodie many are convinced it’s their skin, walls covered in bumper stickers and paint
Cat boys: Music = life, comes off as a jerk but is actually too nice, but still be cautious because they will fight you, kindest smile, too sarcastic and sassy, leggings for days, problems with trust, laughs at corny jokes, acts like they are full of themselves but it’s actually just the opposite, cuddles™

LET NOTHING YOU DISMAY, by montparnasse
Rating: Mature Word Count: 18,993 Era: Post-Hogwarts
Summary: There are a few things Sirius really didn’t count on for Christmas of 1979. The extreme sexual confusion is one of them; Remus Lupin is approximately seventy-eight of the rest.
Comments: So sweet and fluffy. I love the sexually confused, but also pining, Sirius. And I swear I would read the iTunes terms and conditions if montparnasse wrote it; their writing is so beautiful and warm. You can feel Sirius’ longing and love, and it’s just so wonderful.
