Bad Timing (Reese Version)
Added 2025-05-19 12:30:02 +0000 UTC
[Alternate Text: A header image of a stack of sheet music in low lighting. Pages are scattered around haphazardly with different titles/notes peeking out. The title of this writing is: 'Bad Timing' in white font with a black border to resemble the nearby musical notes.]
[EDIT: Re-sending this out to gently remind patrons that there are two versions. I'm aware some of you only read one version, so please check the links below! (I don't want to overwhelm anyone with notifications, so here is Reese's, but Ruby's writing has multiple links too.) Also, I'm re-scheduling our Evergreen and Hickory TFS Q&A, likely adding more to it as well. (It's a trend this month with writings, S's post, and perhaps something at month end. ๐) The Q&A will publish in June. Wishing you all the best! ๐๐ฅฐ]
Flowing, classical music guides your steps to the ballroom as the sophisticated quartet plays another score that's a backdrop for socializing.
Gossip, deals, machinations, veiled insults.
Just as there are notes on the sheet music, you're aware of the darker elements of these events. Reese warned you. They aren't allโฆ
[There are two versions of this post. Please select which is right for you.]
Evergreen and Hickory Version (๐ฒ๐)
You'll select if C is Charles or Charlene within the writing by 'jumping' to their section. I gently suggest re-reading 'Not a White Christmas' before this writing. I'll link Reese's Version: here. It ties into what happens at the start.

Ok I might not be processing totally because Iโm still stuck on the the thing that happened that was amazing in the closet with Mal but had super angsty Reese implications paired with judgy Nox glares. I donโt choose well. I make dumb choices. Dean just wants to be the frosting in the murder husband Oreo cookie of sweet sexy good times! โค๏ธโ๐ฅ๐ค๐ค ๐ฉโค๏ธโ๐ฅ

2025-05-21 05:24:12 +0000 UTCIโm still coming to terms with all of my angst - so Iโm still thinking & processing. I keep thinking about the camp nowโฆ did we ever know who owned that creepfest? What exactly was Mr. Vernerโs career again? Because WTAF. Reese. My Beloved. Maybe I was off a generation on my murder husband vibes. Awkward. But makes the fork thing so much more kinda disturbing & dangerously hot. And Iโm glad Dean gave him the choppy ๐ช afterwards since he clearly has a hatchet fixation long in the making. (Mal is clearly not the biggest ๐ฉin town - how is this not a poly waiting to happen? Murder husband mรฉnage a trois? ๐๐คโค๏ธโ๐ฅ๐ฉ
