Well, it's the last day of 2k14, so why not go out with a bang and have a comment ficathon. Or get an early jump and start of 2k15 with the right priorities, and that's fic.
spencer/mona(/ot4); the scarecrow asked for a brain and so he got a broken heart
Spencer used to feel really sorry for the scarecrow - all he got was some useless brains and he didn't need them in the first place, he was always the smartest of the bunch.
She got used to asking for the same thing after a while. She understood it in the end, you ask for the thing you are good at.
Because something new just might break you.
(She never says, If Mona were here. Because that's Hanna's heartbreak and there's only one at a time around here.
They all have things they own.
They stake claim on them one by one.
Like how they all missed Ali, but it didn't matter because Emily's heart missed Ali.
So yeah... Hanna's heart misses Mona.
Which means Spencer's brain can't miss a fucking thing.
So she doesn't say, If Mona were here.
But her heart beats it in her chest just the same.)
Don't be greedy, Spencer, she tells herself as she dresses herself in black and looks at herself in the mirror and braces herself for Hanna's
( ... )
Oh, I love this. I love the comparisons to the Wizard of Oz characters and how they fit so perfectly for all the girls. I love Spencer feeling sorry for teh scarecrow for what he got, feeling sorry for herself for the same thing. Because your only alllowed one and she chose brains and she never knows if she chose right or wrong, she just knows she chose it and there's no going back.
And its all so beautiful and I love it.
not that you're not already doing it, but you really should write all the things.
The scarecrow came first, but then the other girls just FIT so well. I want to write about all of them and how they feel in their roles. (especially Hanna/heart - because she's all heart, but sometimes her heart is cruel and I love that about her) (especially Emily/courage - because she's all strength and beauty but she's also soft and squishy and breakable) (ESPECIALLY ARYA/HOME - BECAUSE HERS IS THE MOST BROKEN AND DAMAGED HOME, BUT ONLY WHEN SHE IS THERE ARE THE GIRLS ALL TOGETHER AGAIN AND SERIOUSLY FML WHY DID I EVER THINK OF THESE PARALLELS?)
lol - everyone should join me in writing all the things tbh
also I should really stop but I probably won't
thanks to magisterequitum and hopefully my late arrival isn't too annoying
