I've got a whole plot for all the Richardson kids in 2020 does anyone want this??? I'm just trying to shrink these late 20-somethings someoneeeee help #LittleFiresEverywhere

#writingproblems

I'm gonna do it anyway whoop

Lexi as an adult? I can so see her being a high-powered attorney, specializing in feminist issues? Yes ma'am. She's getting media attention and is being asked to run for local office. But here's the thing 1/? #LittleFiresEverywhere

Our girl finds out she's pregnant w her husband. But she wants to run for local office because the other guy is a hard R republican and has been running unopposed like white men do. She needs to reconcile her goals with her past AND her mother FAST!!! #LittleFiresEverywhere

Tripp as an Adult? He's such a sweet boy, this is a Tripp stan account. Our boy is a social worker. He gets put on a case that is eerily similar to what he and his siblings went through, and he almost calls his siblings. He Gets Attached to the kids on his case! and needs family!

Tripp is dealing with a lot of guilt because he hadn't seen his family since like, 2001 or smth. Someone who's as emotionally intelligent deserves a support system and he's the driving force at getting the family back together.
@jordanelsass1 has the range #LittleFiresEverywhere

Moody?? LOVE MOODY!! Our boy moved out to LA and actually started working on movies! He does costumes bitch!!! He's good at it, but his GF can't watch movies with him because he GEEKS out if there's a sick costume design and it's so good. History + Theater experience = joy.

I don't know what it is about
@gavinklewis1
but he just has MAD theater kid energy. Most likely tech because being on the crew is just >>> Moody's gone a bit ~wild!~ since we've last seen him, but it's gonna be ok. Izzy's gonna set it right!!! #LittleFiresEverywhere

IZZY THE BADASS!!! IN 2020, she's actually got a degree in graphic design (she got it from SCAD in 2010, "better late then never" as she says), she's living in New York with her WIFE who she loves a lot. Izzy has changed her name when she ran away, but her opening makes the news.

Prompting Pearl, who's been living in South Carolina with a retired Mia, to come up and say hey. Pearl's so self-aware she's been thinking of Izzy most often over the past 22 years.

Pearl's going to be releasing a BOOK BISHHHH

It's heavily inspired by the whole Shaker Heights Mess, so she and Izzy decide to collaborate on the cover/chapter decorations. Pearl's ex boyfriends are pining for her, not on screen, but Adult!Pearl has the energy #LittleFires

izzy and she catch up and they're finding out they have a lot more in common, including lasting psychological damage. pearl finds out that izzy's sick. it's not a death sentence, but it's not stellar so she hatches a scheme. She invites the Richardsons to the book opening.

Izzy's getting hella press over her Pearl Warren collab, and Elena gets a hold of her private number through the internet. Elena tries it but Izzy hangs up after 20 seconds. Bill's in rehab again. They still live in Shaker Heights.

At the book opening, things are hashed out!!!!! Verbal blood is spilled. Izzy snaps at Pearl like "why would u do this to me." and pearl's like "what about M E you nutty ass people have been haunting my subconscious for 22 years we need group therapy." #LittleFiresEverywhere

Trip, who's trying to Not Adopt 4 kids (see earlier in the thread), is like "Lmao I can arrange that

" and the tension is broken. It's not animosity, it's actual concern. Maybe even love. Izzy comes clean that her life's at risk.

Lexie reacts the most severely, "i was going to name my kid after you anyway," or something dramatic. Izzy calls her a sellout because she's backing down from a challenge, but Lexie spits that right back, that they're both being hypocritical. #LittleFiresEverywhere

Pearl's sipping her wine in the back, waiting for the Richardsons to hash it out, its all material for her next book. Trip's trying to be a moderator between the sisters. Moody's being too quiet and she doesn't like it. #LittleFiresEverywhere

SOOOO He and Pearl talk and he reveals a substance abuse problem he was facing down, and how he was worried about being near family again bc sobriety. But as usual, without trying, Izzy showed everyone up. #LittleFiresEverywhere

Pearl's like "She might be dying, Trip's got crippling emotional issues, and Lexie's about to let an old white man wreck her district because she's pregnant, issues is the same dumbass, we deal with them together."

AND Moody, observant, is like "ok what's ur issue." And straight-faced, Pearl is like "i got a marriage proposal, I don't know what to say." And Moody's like "so ur hung up on Trip?" And she's like "yeah i want some closure."

so moody makes pearl and trip hash it out, trip tries to 'shrink' her but pearl flips the switch. trip gets dramatic and pearl calls mia for a break.

But inside, it all gets a little Too Heated because these people do The Most, so Izzy and Pearl go back to New York. Pearl makes the bestseller list, and Izzy gets hella PRESS AGAIN.

Izzy doesn't admit it, but she really enjoyed fighting with the family again, so she takes a break and focuses on getting better, she does, makes some of her BEST art ever.
Pearl says yes to her mans, plans for a Christmas wedding. Mia does the decorations w Izzy's help

Lexie, in PDX, has her water break on the stage when she's' trying to give her acceptance speech. She thanks Izzy and Pearl specifically, and across the country, Izzy and Pearl are watching. Trip's doing therapy!!!! He's leaving the house socially #LittleFiresEverywhere

Trip's actually talking to people his own age?? we stan!
Moody's feeling re-energized!! He's asked his girlfriend to move in, and he's advancing his career like CRAZY on the American 'downton abby reboot', he predicts it will last 1 season but that's ok.

Trip makes a move. A bold move. He invites his family to Thanksgiving at his house (he rents). He cooks and it's not stellar, but it works. He's happy. Lexie doesn't know how to tell Pearl that her son named Warren. Lexie's man doesn't know wtf is going on, but he's really cute.

The last shots would be Elena, still in Ohio. It's already snowing and it's cold in the big house they rebuilt. She calls for Bill, but he doesn't respond. He doesn't do so good with stairs these days. She eats dinner in the kitchen, news faintly buzzing in the background.

Mia, in retirement in the South, chilling on her front porch, ancient parents sipping tea. She's feeling light and heavy at the same time. Pauline should be here, but in a way it feels like she is, photo above the mantle. The Cicadas are buzzing faintly. #LittleFiresEverywhere
