Tdwt Alejandro - Tumblr Posts
Getting into total drama made me finally realize just how much I’m a sucker for the trope of a character who seems very charming/cool but on the inside is actually a massive dork.
Honestly It’s so obvious looking back idk how it took me this long to realize.

Alenoah is currently tied with Duncey on AO3!!! The gays are caught up ppl!!!
A Mask of My Own Face by Lemon Demon gives off such strong Alejandro energy send tweet
MIRROR WHEN I CATCH YOU MIRROR
(They wrote this in Astros server dude and still it’s so devastating I CANT)
alejandro thinks. and he thinks. and he thinks.
maybe in another world, he won world tour.
maybe in that world, his parents finally love him.
maybe his papa will finally tell him that he is enough, that he is better than jose, that it doesn't matter if -
if he's a little different from everyone else a lot different. who is he kidding?
maybe if he had won, he would have friends, then. actual friends, rather than people using him for his father's connections
but in this world he has lost
maybe it was always destiny
always second place, never first
no one ever chose him
heather pushing him off the volcano, eyes glinting.
he had thought for a second that maybe - but no. who is he fooling. he has never liked girls. but he did like heather, thought maybe they could be friends but - that's a mere fantasty, like his parents ever loving him, even in a world where he did win
no one comes after him
he is left alone in his humiliation, his loss.
his devastation. alejandro: the forever second place, the unloveable, the outcast -
he has tried to fit in. he never will. he will never be loved, not by his friends or jose or his parents or -
back to the drawing board. worse than, even
last year, he still held onto the illusion that one day, if he just tried hard enough, flirted with the right people, got the right grades, won a stupid reality tv show -
that his parents would love him
alejandro, alone at the bottom of a volcano, abandoned by people who loathe him, closes his eyes.
no one is coming for him. and no one ever will.
Day 4 of My TD Fic Rec Week: Favorite Short Fic!!! :>
No.1 - Noise Canceling Headphones. by sailorofruins (@sailorofruins) - A 1.7k gen fic about Alejandro where whenever his team wins he uses a pair of noise blocking headphones that he really loves because of his sensory issues until one day where he can’t find them and starts to panic. It’s an amazing depiction of sensory issues and Autistic Alejandro is one of my favorite headcanons!!
No.2 - Red Masks by HenkePenke (@henke-penke): a 1.9k Alenoaheather royalty au set at a masquerade. The irony of Alejandro getting to be more of himself while wearing the mask with the way Alejandro is trying to romance both Noah and Heather is so amazing. It’s so amazing and made by the awesome author of another one of my favorite fics (Lovers and Fools)!!!

Alenoah World Tour story idea
Same idea as any other World Tour Alenoah AU but Alejandro’s flirting and charm actually doesn’t work on Noah. Not “Noah pretends like it’s doesn’t effect him,” but genuinely “Noah is not effected.”
It drives Alejandro crazy. No one has ever been able to resist his charms! Not even Heather, no matter how much she denies it. It’s even worse because Noah is gay so it’s not the issue of sexuality, and even then, sexuality was never really an issue. So why did his charm not work on him???
It turns from Alejandro trying to manipulate Noah to Alejandro becoming obsessed with Noah. Every chance he gets, he flirts with him, trying to get a reaction. And every time, he gets shot down. Some of the other contestants are jealous that Noah is getting so much attention from Alejandro and he doesn’t care, while others find it absolutely hilarious and use it to make Alejandro jealous/get on his nerves. (It works every time)
To make matters worse, Noah seems to enjoy the attention from no one but Owen. So it drives Alejandro’s hatred for Owen even further.
I’m the end, it turns out that Noah does like Alejandro. He feels like he can be honest with Alejandro and doesn’t need to sugarcoat or keep quiet about his actual thoughts. But he knew that Alejandro flirted with people to manipulate them so he just chose not to react to it or to shoot him down until he was sure that Alejandro actually meant what he said (if he ever did which he reeeaaally does).
