Hey honey, happy new "year" (whatever that means), how are you? I've now seen all of superstore so was wondering if you have any hottakes theories headcanons or just random thoughts/rants/dreams about it you wanna share? Xxx
Heyyyya!!! Happy new year!!! And happy birthmonth or whatever 🥳😘 I'm fine, just a bit not around these days lol, but I'm fine! How are you?
OMG you finally watched Superstore??? What did you think? Did you like it? Do you have hottakes theories heacanons?
I don't really have that many theories or headcanons or stuff on the show because I'm simply an enjoyer of what it puts on my screen without further daydreaming, but here are some random thoughts and my main opinions on Superstore:
Dina is one of my favourite characters of like, ever. She's with Sister Michael from Derry Girls in that same club of absolute icons that holds a special place in my heart. I just love love love her absolutely batshit morality, her freakness, the way everything about her is logical but yet in the most insane way, and I'm a huge fan of Lauren Ash's acting when it comes to Dina. She's my fave character in the show.
Garrett is also my favourite character, for somehow completely opposed reasons: while Dina is objectively terrifying, I find Garrett the perfect embodiment of an IDGAF energy that I would love to spend an evening chilling with. I find it hilariously ironic that Dina and him kind of have a relationship together.
I just love how every character, despite being obviously quite stereotyped, has some complexity in the sense that you can't completely love or hate them. They all have adorable and despicable sides, even Glenn, or Carol, or Justine, and it gives a realistic touch to the show despite its general insanity.
Still on the realistic side, I love how diverse the cast is, and especially when it comes to body types.
I adore the way Garrett's disability is basically a non-existent plot point. It's here, he's in a wheelchair, yes you'll hear him saying that he drives to go to work and no you won't know how, yes he owns a gazillion pairs of shows, but no, you won't know why he can't walk, and to be fair, the mere fact that he's disabled will practically never be addressed in the whole show except for like one episode and a half where we'll make meta jokes about avoiding to give him a tragic backstory. I love this because you'll see so many times disabled characters (or LGBT/neurodivergent/racial token, pick your fave) reduced only to their disability as their unique definition. They're the Disabled Character™ and of course this will be used as a major plot point, otherwise what would be the point? I love how Garrett is Garrett before being disabled, and how it's not used as a tool for doom or redemption or what have you.
I completely hated the Amy's pregnancy storyline even though I know it was there to cover for America Ferrara's actual pregnancy
There's an inherent pro-union, anticapitalist philosophy to the show that I can only but command
The attention to detail!!! I love the joke about Amy's nametag having a different name with each episode, or the random shots of the store with no dialogue and customers going bananas in the middle of each episode
The lines!! Honestly this show has some of the most hilarious lines I've ever heard 🤣
"Justine, how are you on cutting cakes?" "Honestly? Weird."
"He looks like a panda and a Disney princess had a baby"
"I'm torn. On one hand, that doesn't look good on you. On the other hand, what would?"
Watching season 6 in 2021 felt familiar and normal. Rewatching it in 2025 feels like witnessing a terrifying dystopia. I forgot to which point 2020 was wild!
I think we should have benefitted more from Superstore's shared universe with Good Girls because Annie Marks would have thrived in the workplace environment of Cloud 9, it's a pity we didn't get to see that, especially when Asmita and Cheyenne's mom were played by the same actress!
Ship-wise, I'm quite indifferent to Jonah/Amy, I mean they're cute but that's pretty much it, I'm suprised Jerry/Sandra made it to the end, I'm very invested in Dina/Garrett obviously, also I loved Jeff/Mateo, I think they should have gotten back together in the end.
I find it awesome that despite having left the show, America Ferrara agreed to come back in the last episodes of season 6, it really added to a great ending
Speaking of, as someone who's more often than not disappointed by TV shows' endings, I must say that Superstore's is one of the most beautiful and satisfying one that I know? The ending is just perfect, emotional, makes perfect sense, gives closure to everything and everyone, I love that they gave the last words to Garrett since he's sort of the show's narrator through his announcements, I love how it's a happy-ish ending but also kind of bittersweet and also a quite open one, and it's just the show in a nutshell which is what I look for the most in shows. I feel sad for Jeff though, poor meow meow's still single and he's gonna have a tough time selling thoses Subarus...
Anyway, Superstore is one of my favourite confort shows, it's perfect in its kind and there's really very few things I dislike about it 🥰🥲💕

4. Which comment has had the most impact on your writing?
i don’t know if i’d say comments impact how i actually write? they obviously give me a boost to write more and sometimes when people ask me questions about future updates it sparks ideas i hadn’t even thought of. So i guess sometimes comments can give me little storyline inspo!
14. Share a snippet
Cherry Trees 4 im getting there i swear
Beth gasps, body jolting at the sudden noise and fumbling with her phone when she nearly drops it, putting it back down on the night stand before heading straight for the front door.
She should probably call out, ask who it is, but she doesn’t need to. She knows. Almost feels like she conjured him with her thoughts. Opening the door half way, she slants her body behind it on instinct to hide from the cold outside and finds Rio standing on her doorstep in the rain.
He doesn’t say anything, and the second their eyes meet she’s struck by his whole demeanor. Something severe and - - hesitant about it.
“Are you alright?” Beth breathes, but he doesn’t answer. Staring back, dazed, like maybe he didn’t even hear her. “Rio?”
He’s still just looking at her with a pained expression, searching her face, struggling with some inner turmoil. Eyes slightly glazed over, hands shoved in to his hoodie pockets, the tiredness in his bones evident in the way he’s standing.
And when she focuses on the bruise near the ridge of his cheekbone, the nasty scrape on his forehead, the thin red cut just beneath his eyebrow, her heart aches to reach for him.
“Can I come in?” he asks, finally. Blinking away the misty rain sticking in little drops to his lashes.
“Oh, yeah, yes, of course,” Beth gestures him forward, quietly moves to the side and pulls the door wider, letting him walk past. After she closes it, twists the latch, she turns back around to face him and the drastic change in the way Rio’s looking at her now is how she’s instantly reminded she’s in nothing but a short towel.
Soooo, 24 Hours was just something fun and not too serious I wanted to write. It takes place sometime after Annie has Ben but before Beth has Kenny and she and Dean are living in that small, horrible apartment they reference in the show.
One day Beth realises she has absolutely nothing to do and she's home alone so she decides to go out and do something for herself that isn't part of her usual routine (not that she knows what that something will be exactly) and during her first stop of the day, she quite literally bumps into Rio. In this story, this is the first time they've ever met.
This moment leads to them talking/interacting and certain details lead to him suggesting they grab breakfast together. The bulk of the story is the result of that initial meeting and how the two end up spending 24 (straight) hours together going to various places around Detroit — some planned, some not — as they gradually get to know each other.
The only thing that's really slowed down the writing is that I want to make sure there’s not too much insta-love and that Beth/Rio are in-character while at the same time, not obsessing over these things too much as I write because it really is supposed to be a fun fic (for me to write at least).
(That being said, the plan does have them being their very-dramatic, not-necessarily-great-at-communication selves here and there).
Just because I can, have a little excerpt 👀:
Beth hisses, sharply withdrawing her hand, the compact and lipstick dropping back to the ground. [Rio's] hand flattens down over the tube to stop it from rolling away and he tosses it into her bag before reaching for her hand, turning it over in his so he can examine the cut. With her free hand, Beth reaches into her bag to pull out a packet of tissues. She removes a couple from it, wrapping them around her finger.
“I need to clean this up,” she says, closing her hand into a fist, pressing the tissue tightly against the cut,
It takes Rio a moment to realise she means the compact and he laughs. “Just leave it.”
“I’m not leaving it all over the ground.”
At that, he rolls his eyes but with the sleeve of his hoodie, he carefully gathers together as much of the broken mirror as he can. As she watches him try to collect all the pieces onto multiple layers of tissues, she realises it is stupid but he’s done before she knows it and then he’s standing, carefully holding the broken compact and the bits of broken mirror in his hand.
With his free hand, he reaches down. She gathers up her bag and hooks it onto her arm before she leans on his hand for support as she stands up.
“You had breakfast yet?”
Beth’s eyes falter a little on the red seeping through the tissue as she shakes her head.
Pls tell me more about this post s4 fic where Ruby comes back and finds out about established brio 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! I wish i could but it was just an idea...I don't write it, not even a word, only in my head but....Now i know what i'm gonna write next^^!!
Ok, so...the idea was...post season 4, Annie is out of Jail, she is free...rio helps her to go out of jail...and well brio talk about everything since they now eachother, specially about everyhting bad happen between them and in conclusion, they agree that they want the same things...being together but for that they promess to let the past, past and don't talk about it anymore....Brio established relationship, everyone is happy but.....Beth didn't tell to Ruby that she dates Rio and...surprise...Ruby and Stan come back to town, for living it again...and it's cool, but she learned that brio is a things and isn't happy at all about that!
Ruby and Stan come back because they know Beth just stop working with Rio..She lets him do his things, but they not really working together anymore, not like that.
But... Ruby gonna be very mad..and they gonna fight...And...my idea was..Beth broke up with Rio (not for long), not because she wants but because she doesn't want loose her bestfriend again and is the good things to do (wrong)
Fortunatly Annie, who is okay with brio relationship (at the end, she kind of like him...well not really but he makes Beth happy and he is not trashman, so it's enough for her), gonna have a talk with Ruby, and she gonna make her understand that Rio makes Beth happy, and it's the only things who matters, and that he never gonna hurt her or them!!!!!
After that, Ruby and Annie gonna find Rio for talking to him because he doesn't want to talk to Beth..i mean his heart is broken once again by this woman so... and because once again she didn’t choose him, but this time it’s worst because it’s more personal (sad Rio...i’m gonna make myslef cry)!!!!!
And well...Stan and Rio gonna meet and after all this angst (see what you and @bourbon-ontherocks do to me...i write angst now and a lot^^), happy ending!!! (of course)
Voilà!!
(pour quelqu'un qu'a rien écrit encore, y'a beaucoup de chose dans ma tête^^)

23. who are five of your favorite bands/musical artists?
on top of my head i'll say king mala, highasakite, hans zimmer, abba and noga erez
26. what's your favorite season?
late spring, when the temperature is perfect, not too warm and not too cold (22-23 degrees celcius is perfect, if it's higher it feels like i'm burning up in hell). i also love that we have a bunch of national holidays during spring. i love the cherry blossoms and the city always plants a lot of flowers which makes it absolutely stunning!
😂 What’s the funniest comment someone has left on a fic of yours?
this is the first one that came to mind and it’s from my christmas fic lol it made me giggle
🖊 What is the most recent line you’ve written?
the actual most recent line is probs in xmas fic but here’s the last line on the doc for a wip:
She wakes up the next morning and everything aches. Everything.
👻 Have you written holiday-themed fics? If yes, which is your fave? If not, what’s one holiday you’d want to write for, and which character(s) would the fic be for?

another holiday to write for?? idk my first thought was new years but i’m on a writing break rn and would never finish anything in time lol so maybe just a generally winter themed fic? ❄️❄️❄️
