Life in Plastic is Fantastic

Summary:

The Barbienheimer chaos arrives for the Stark children
No spoilers!

Notes:

like every single situation we live on, mari (blacksmithands, can't link her as co-creator) and I couldn't help but apply the starklings on the whole barbienheimer thing, so I thought we had to write it down for once.
Ages don't matter, having a job is irrelevant, the only thing happening here is deciding the pink fit for the release day.
Have fun!

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC



MARGAERY created a groupchat

MARGAERY added SANSA, ARYA, ROBB, THEON, JON and BRAN

MARGAERY named the groupchat ‘LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC’

 

Robb: what is this

Jon: another groupchat???

Arya: jon will need three week days to recover from being here this long minute

Bran: i have to agree though

Bran: >another< groupchat?

Robb: someone tell me what is this

Margaery: we’re all seeing barbie<3

Margaery: dust off the good old pink suits in your closets

Margaery: (i mean it, we’re all wearing pink)

Sansa: as you can see, nothing here is optional

Sansa: you >are< going and you’re doing it wearing >pink<

Sansa: questions?

Arya: actually yes

Arya: I had planned to go with my boyfriend?

Margaery: oh, no problem at all, just add gendry here and he’ll be part of the dreamhouse

Margaery: the same goes for anyone else who had plans with someone already

Bran: oh nice

 

BRAN added MEERA

ARYA added GENDRY

 

Gendry: what’s going on

Meera: ^^^^

Sansa: we’re all watching barbie together

Sansa: release date

Gendry: I thought we were going as in a date, arya?

Arya: we can still do that too

Margaery: yes, do that TOO

Margaery: love that

Jon: oh, I wanted to see Opperheimer though

Margaery: ew why

Theon: tf is an opperheimer

Theon: is that like a beer?

Theon: sounds a lot like heineken to me

Sansa: no it doesn’t?

Arya: you did not just say that theon 💀

 

ROBB  > THEON

Robb: [screencap]

 

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Theon: I was obviously joking arya

Theon: of course I know that Opperheimer is the nolan movie about the creation of the atomic bomb

Jon: right

Jon: anyway I had thought of going to that?

Gendry: yeah, I wanted to see that too

Sansa: boohoo

Margaery: guys omg.

Bran: here it comes 

Margaery: we could have the full barbienheimer experience!!! 

Margaery: and see both of the movies  

Sansa: I’m gonna be very honest with you, marg 

Sansa: I’m very tired of pretending I care about this bomb movie 

Arya: 💀💀💀

Arya: we can just go together and everyone chooses if they want to see both or just one 

Robb: theon and I are not going to watch barbie 

Robb: that’s lame 

Margaery: no robb, you’re lame 

Robb: and we’re not going with you cause I don’t us to be seen together 

Meera: you’re literally all siblings 

Arya: and it’s okay for you to be seen with theon? make it make sense 

Theon: jon can I borrow one of your 8272 leather jackets? 

Jon: why don’t you ask your boyfriend? he has one from when he played the lead in our school’s production of grease 

Robb: yeah and I’m obviously gonna wear it so it’s not available 

Jon: good mother

 

RICKON > ARYA

Rickon: hey are you still taking me and shireen to the mall like you promised?

Arya: oh shit I forgot about that 

 

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC 

Arya: rickon is going 

Bran: noooooooooooo

Robb: minus theon and I

Robb: we’re seeing oppenheimer

Arya: okay robb we got that already

Robb: rickon didn’t? he wasn’t here before?

Sansa: some of us (them) are seeing that oppenheimer movie too (snooze)

Arya: and some of us are seeing both

Margaery: anywayyyy yes we’re all going together

Rickon: why tho

Sansa: I can’t believe you have to ask this

Sansa: for the group pics obviously

Bran: obviously

Rickon: arya do I have to?

Rickon: can’t you just drive us somewhere before you go?

Arya: why don’t you just come with us??

Rickon: and have you making fun of me all the time?

Rickon: no thank you

Gendry: it’s okay rick we won’t comment on you and your girlfriend

Robb: I do have a new pink polo shirt

Bran: yikes

Sansa: I thought you weren’t seeing barbie?

Robb: oh yeah

Jon: I’m not wearing pink

Sansa: don’t ruin the vibe jon

Jon: I don’t own anything pink

Gendry: me neither tbh

Arya: we can find you something

Sansa: you can borrow robb’s pink polo

Gendry: first of all

Gendry: I’d rather die

Rickon: sdjkahfdkajskjakdjask

Bran: ouch

Gendry: second of all, I don’t think it would fit me anyway

Meera: gendry you’re making your girlfriend blush

Arya: I’m not??

Sansa: you are

Robb: thanks sansa you just got me humiliated

Bran: somehow I don’t think your ego will suffer that much

Robb: OKAY THAT’S ENOUGH

Margaery: gendry, why don’t you check with your uncle if he has something you could borrow?

Theon: stannis wearing pink?? oh that must be funny

Theon: will you wear a pink button-up gendry?

Sansa: marg means renly, theon

Theon: oh

Theon: no fun then

Margaery: renly will be crushed to know he was called no fun in a situation stannis was the funny one

Gendry: it’s worth the check

Sansa: yesssss

Sansa: now back to jon

Jon: no.

 

GENDRY > RENLY

Gendry: hey

Gendry: do you own anything pink that I could borrow?

Gendry: we’re seeing barbie and everyone’s wearing pink

Renly: oh I got just the thing

 

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Margaery: cmonnnnn jon

Sansa: you can’t ruin our group pictures!!

Jon: so I won’t appear on the pictures

Jon: I can take them

Arya: you’re no fun

Gendry: talked to renly, he has something

Sansa: see?? even gendry is joining!

Gendry: hey what does “even gendry” means??

Bran: you just said you didn’t own anything pink

Gendry:

Gendry: got it

Jon: I’m not even sure I’m seeing barbie yet

Sansa: I hate to repeat myself but

Sansa: boohoo

Arya: gendry what about myrcie

Gendry: oh fuck i forgot

Gendry: can she join? she will be pissed if she finds out everyone went without her

Arya: she did say it was her moment

Gendry: she said, and I quote, she’s literally barbie

Margaery: of course she can come

Sansa: I mean, most of us are taking siblings so why couldn’t you? 

 

MARGAERY added PODRICK

 

Bran: myrcella is looking very different all of the sudden

Sansa: 😑

Podrick: hi guys

Arya: how did you end up here? 

Margaery: he asked to join

 

GENDRY added MYRCELLA

 

Myrcella: hello??

Podrick: hi myrcella

Margaery: hi, dear!

Margaery: just to shorten the story, we’re all seeing barbie on the release day and we’re all wearing pink

Margaery: anyone have any questions?

Bran: actually yes

Bran: shouldn’t we just check if we can rent a whole room

Sansa: we can’t afford it

Gendry: you’re all rich I had no idea you guys even had a budget

Jon: I will not even dignify your accusation with an answer

Margaery: okay so

Margaery: Sansa and I, Gendry and Arya, Bran and Meera, Rickon and Shireen, Jon, Podrick, Myrcella?

Jon: I’m still not sure

Sansa: well, jon, you have to decide, we need to buy tickets

Sansa: and we’ll probably need your car too

Robb: what movie theater are you guys going to?

Margaery: I think the bigger one makes sense since there’s a lot of us

Margaery: they’ll probably have more tickets

Sansa: which btw we will take care of

Sansa: we’re telling you guys soon about time and who’s picking you

Theon: well, since we ain’t joining you

Theon: I guess that farewell

 

THEON left the groupchat

 

Arya: that seems excessive

Jon: no, no, he’s got a point

Arya: yes jon we know you have an irrational fear of groupchats

Jon: i deem it very rational

Robb: I have to agree with jon though

Robb: too many groupchats

Robb: bye

 

ROBB left the groupchat

 

Margaery: apparently there’s no tickets anymore

Margaery: so we’re going to a smaller theater

Sansa: I guess that one further from town probably still has tickets

Rickon: I thought you said not to worry about the tickets?

Sansa: well, yes, marg and I are on it

Rickon: then talk about it on private so we don’t have to worry

Sansa: okay rude

 


 

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Arya: okay gendry, i’m coming to get you in 20 minutes

Arya: we’re getting shireen on the way

Margaery: did the poor girl even have a saying in the movie she’s seeing?

Rickon: of course she did!! fuck off

Sansa: oi! quit being rude to my girlfriend!

Margaery: thanks babe

Margaery: is jon with you guys?

Arya: nope he said he’d meet us there

Margaery: how mysterious

Arya: anyway i’m leaving

Arya: gendry BE READY

 

GENDRY > RENLY

Gendry: I should already be ready!!!!!

Gendry: arya is picking me up soon

Gendry: where are you???

Renly: marg said the movie only starts at dusk? it’s 3pm??

Gendry: we’re seeing oppenheimer before

Gendry: I told you this!!

Renly: SORRY I FORGOT

Renly: so marg is only watching barbie later?

Gendry: yes, exactly

Renly: then I’ll tell her to pick your stuff here before she meets you there

Gendry: okay fine

Gendry: but don’t forget or she will kill me

Gendry: and sansa too!

 

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Arya: GUYS

Arya: YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE IT

Arya: I’M SEEING WITH MY OWN EYES AND I STILL DON’T BELIEVE IT

Sansa: what what what

Arya: [picture]

Sansa: JON??

Meera: OH MY GODS

Margaery: I thought he said he didn’t own any pink?????

Bran: apparently he owns the entire color pink

Meera: I never thought I’d see Jon Snow dressed in shorts, let alone PINK SHORTS

Sansa: I NEED TO SEE THIS WITH MY OWN EYES

Bran: how did this even happen?

Gendry: he brought satin

Gendry: satin said he should fucking commit

Margaery: he took satin 😍😍😍😍

Sansa: oh my godsssss 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Sansa: and he didn’t say a thing

Sansa: I don’t even know why I’m surprised

Arya: okay, movie’s starting

Arya: see you guys on the other side

Sansa: it’s so earlyyyy

Sansa: they’re truly committing to the barbienheimer bit

Margaery: I would too if you had let me

Sansa: pls babe you don’t care about this movie either

Margaery: I would do it for the bit!!

Podrick: it’s not worth it, marg

Podrick: it’s a three hour depressing movie, you shouldn’t do it for the meme

Sansa: thank you, pod!!!!

Margaery: fine fine

Margaery: babe i’m going there so you can make my hair

Sansa: and so you can drive jon’s car

Margaery: yes, that too

Myrcella: you’re telling me sansa still can’t drive?

Sansa: yes 😭

Margaery: yes  😡

Bran: yes 😐

Podrick: oh touchy subject

Myrcella: forget I asked

Podrick: is everyone going to fit?

Sansa: yes!! jon’s car is bigger and has more places, that’s why we wanted his car

Myrcella: i have just one question 

Margaery: shoot it 

Myrcella: how pink is too pink?

Margaery: IT’S NEVER TOO PINK

Sansa: IT’S NEVER TOO PINK

Myrcella: this is my dream coming true

Myrcella: I think I want to be here forever

Bran: sansa have you seen robb?

Sansa: he said he was going to theon’s and then the movies

Sansa: he even left with a backpack, I think he was getting ready there

Meera: I can’t believe you’re texting your sister while you’re at the same house

Bran: it was closer 🙁

Bran: this house is too big 😣

Bran: please don’t be disappointed with me? 😭

Margaery: sweet mother

Meera: I’m not

Bran: 😮💨 okay

Sansa: I’ve never seen bran using so many emojis before

Sansa: or having that many expressions tbh

Sansa: anyway, we’ll let you guys know when we’re leaving the house

Sansa: see you soon

 


 

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Theon: fuck you

Arya: bold words coming from a man dressed as a lesbian

Sansa: why didn’t I think of that??

 

ARYA added SHIREEN

 

Arya: welcome to the wildness

Arya: we will not blame you if you run after an hour

Shireen: I think it’s safe to say I’m used to the stark wildness by now

Bran: oh are you?

Gendry: this is your fault, sansa and margaery!!

Gendry: you said there wasn’t a limit to the pink

Gendry: it was a mistake!!!

Myrcella: don’t throw off my groove, gendry

Bran: beware the groove!

Rickon: to be fair

Rickon: it looks like myrcella thinks we’re going to the eras tour

Shireen: we’re not? 😕

Rickon: oh no

Shireen: I thought of getting you a karma shirt

Arya: first of all

Arya: NEVER BEATING THE DATING ALLEGATIONS

Robb: I think ours started earlier

Robb: we actually came to see it and since we’re already here, we’re seeing barbie too

Arya: I see

Arya: well, yes, the movie was pretty good

Rickon: yo that man has some creepy eyes

Rickon: someone get him some brown lenses asap

Sansa: rickon you have the same eye color?

Rickon: BUT IT’S CREEPY ON HIM

Arya: you’re exaggerating

Arya: I think his eyes are pretty

Rickon: ofc you do

Rickon: gendry’s are the same

Gendry: are you calling me creepy??

Rickon: yes

Rickon: you’re terrifying

Arya: shireen’s eyes are exactly like gendry’s

Arya: are you calling your girlfriend creepy??

Rickon: hers are pretty!!

Rickon: also, she’s not my girlfriend!!

Shireen: I’m not rickon’s girlfriend

Rickon: also, shireen doesn’t creepily stare at my sister like you do

Arya: ew rickon don’t say it like that

Gendry: I don’t do that

Rickon: yes you do!

Rickon: you just did it!!!

LIFE IN PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC

Sansa: [picture]

Sansa: [picture]

Sansa: [picture]

Sansa: [picture]

Sansa: [picture]

Shireen: I can’t decide who has the best look

Meera: it’s true, while I love myrcie’s pink sparkly boots ans matching cowboy hat, it’s hard to compete with jon snow in pink shorts

Sansa: but your “she’s barbie” shirt going with bran’s “he’s just ken”??

Sansa: we have to mention that!!

Jon: I don’t know, the pink feathery thingy around gendry’s neck is the best thing ever

Bran: I have to agree, I feel like I’m a better man for seeing that vision

Margaery: renly did a lot for us without even knowing

Arya: what about theon?? he’s cosplaying weird barbie!

Theon: what did I ever do to you

Arya: a lot of things actually

Margaery: rickon, dear, would it hurt you to smile for a picture?

Shireen: thank you, marg!! I’ve been asking the same for a while now

Rickon: please, be happy that I >am< in the picture

Shireen: urgh you’re impossible

Arya: you know what I don’t get?

Arya: if rickon isn’t your boyfriend, shireen, then why did you say you were getting him that karma shirt?

Arya: the song is literally “karma is my boyfriend”

 

SHIREEN left the groupchat

 

Meera: oh?

Bran: is rickon blushing??

Bran: RICKON IS BLUSHING GUYS

Rickon: shut up

Rickon: and fyi, she didn’t mean it like that 

Bran: what did she mean, then? that you’re a goddamn acrobat?

 

RICKON left the groupchat

 

Arya: oh my gods

Jon: I hope this means they’re finally becoming official

Jon: everybody knows

Sansa: speaking of which

Sansa: are you and satin official?

Jon: we’re officially something

Jon: which is why I will not commit the mistake of involving him with your groupchats yet

Sansa: 😤 fine

Arya: soooo

Arya: robb, theon, what did you think about oppenheimer?

Robb: it was good?

Theon: I thought we were past that

Arya: well, you weren’t present when we were discussing it

Robb: as it was mentioned, it was good

Theon: very interesting

Gendry: what did you guys think about the way it treated minorities? because I personally thought there was a big opening for a discussion that wasn't pushed, probably because they wasted so much time with the science of the construction of the bomb. a pity, right?

Theon: exactly, exactly

Robb: I couldn’t agree more

Arya: I KNEW IT

Arya: YOU HAVEN’T SEEN IT

Arya: YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE MOVIE IS ABOUT

Arya: GENDRY JUST SAID A BUNCH OF WORDS AND YOU FELL FOR IT

Robb:

Theon: FINE

Theon: WE WENT TO BARBIE ONLY

Theon: AND YOU KNOW WHAT?

Theon: IT WAS BLOODY BRILLIANT

Robb: I’M ROBB AND I’M ENOUGH

Robb: WE DID LOVE THE KENERGY

Robb: RYAN GOSLING IS HOT AS FUCK

Robb: THEON CRIED

Robb: WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? SUE US??

Theon: should we rename the boys gc to mojo dojo casa house?

Gendry: no?

Robb: done

Podrick: they had a point, though

Podrick: horses are great

Margaery: what is going on?

Meera: I feel like I fell into a parallel universe

Sansa: you guys really missed the entire point of the movie, didn’t you?

Arya: sansa, I love you for trying

Arya: but you must know it’s pointless

Sansa: yes 😭

Theon: I mean it guys

Theon: I deeply related, you know?

Theon: that’s why I cried

Theon: I too understand the pain of living a life of blonde fragility

Jon: you’re not blonde?

Theon: shut up jon

Theon: I’m having a moment

Bran: you’re also not pretty enough to relate to ken

Robb: EXCUSE YOU HE IS

Theon: I LITERALLY PULLED OFF ROBB STARK

Gendry: does anyone else feel like allan is literally jon?

Sansa: YES

Margaery: ABSOLUTELY

Arya: oh my fucking gods!!!

Meera: you’re so right

Jon: 😔😔

Gendry: you just proved my point, bro

Myrcella: you guys are really something

Myrcella: please invite me for the next one

Myrcella: also, podrick, do you want to go out some time?

Podrick: oh

Podrick: sure, I’d love to

Myrcella: nice, I’ll text you
