was this soul crushing sentiment what heartbreak felt like? the questions pops up for only a brief moment before flashes of ken blinded her view — he was the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friend, the perfect anything anyone could ask for. and now, she has lost him. she enters veronica's house, wandering aimlessly inside, having little to no idea whether or not she wants to sit down. everything in her being urged her not to, she had to stay alert, to move around, maybe then she'd tire herself enough to not feel feelings anymore. " it's over! " she bawled, throwing her hands in the air ; barbie didn't know whether or not to wipe away the stream coming from her eyes, cover her face or succumb to the agony sprung from within. " i - i don't know how to be anything without him, vee. like – i understand i may have neglected him lately but i would've tried changing that. and now i'm afraid it's too late. " cue the desperate, unavoidable sobbing that passes rose rouged lips. " what am i gonna do? " hands fluttered once more, seeking refuge in the folds of her dress, only to emerge again to wipe away the constant stream of tears rolling down her flushed cheeks. with each erratic movement, her arms embraced the air around her ( despite being suffocating at this time ) , as if reaching out for a love that was no longer there, aching to hold onto what was now lost.
reminiscing on the past didn't help – but it surely brought sentiments once forgotten. it wasn't that barbie despised the stardom, no. on the contrary, she took pride in her work and the blinding flashlights from paparazzi didn't bother her that much ; at first, anyway. sometime along the way, she has come to the revelation that she misses the good ol' times. everything seemed much easier back then … or was it just a mirage? barbie doesn't know for sure, but living in her fantasy, she's allowed to miss her old life. she's utterly lost in her train of thoughts, looking outside the window when she barely notices frida seemingly coming back.
and she's quick to notice the burning cigarette ; despite the groundbreaking record of two months without smoking, seeing frida living her life so carelessly and, possibly, happily, it gets her wondering. tempted. barbie was tempted and her apple was the cigarette she would have enjoyed, if only she asked. glossed lips part ever so slightly (withdrawal at its finest) as she leans forward in her seat, closer to them. " there's this pub that just opened near the center. have you gone there? " casual chit chat, though her lungs were burning. " also, " cue the falling into temptation, icarus really did flew too close to the sun, hasn't he now? " i was wondering what your policies are regarding smoking inside the car? "
“ are we good to go ? ” ╰ @b4rbieroberts
the loud slurp of a water down cherry coke, followed by the sound of paper shuffling. pitstops aren’t typically on the agenda, especially when there’s an agent watching the clock ... but this one’s an exception. lips part as frida whispers to herself she’s counting a wad of cash, hundreds all banded up, crisp and clean. face up, flashing franklins and a few mckinleys ... she hasn’t seen mckinley’s stupid face in a while, but she welcomes it all the same. stone faced, unbothered, until boney tattooed fingers reach for the shifter.
“ yeah, yeah … didn’t mean to hold you up, ” half-mumbled, sentence trailing off. frida hopes that this won’t be a problem if it becomes a problem, she can find ways to mitigate it. whatever. we’ll cross that bridge when we get there. silver range rover backs out of the rain-soaked ally, leaving behind the big metal backdoor of a nondescript brick building. frida scampered out like nothing, slamming it behind her, dragging on a cigarette. calm, cool, itching for payment. nose crinkles. frida attempts to exhale the cold scent of a meat locker. not picky, sure, but the meeting spot could be a lot better. she turns, looking at the backseat passenger princess : “ where to next, barbie ??? ”
Believe it or not, you're the most important person in your own life. You are who you've woken up to and gone to bed with every day since you were little. You've made your bed and snuggled in it after bad days. You've made yourself treats, just 'cus. You've kept going on bad days, wiped tears off your cheeks and have said "I've got this," before doing things that may be a little nerve wracking. You've tried your best and picked yourself up every time you've stumbled! That's strength. That's amazing and should be celebrated with a sweet and some you time. I know I'm here to celebrate you and your strength as well, friend! Keep that chin up this week. August is trucking along! - ♡♡ Victoria

BECKETT ' TEDDY ' PIKE [ PLAYED BY @midfie1der ] : i don't know how else to ask you.
what a bliss, to be beside someone who sees beyond the external appearance. he sees right through her. or perhaps, she has lowered her guard on purpose. letting someone in was always the hardest part. but barbie learned that she could trust some individuals. it’s true what they say — trust is either earned or given freely. only that she did both, simultaneously. ceruleans stare at her own reflection in the mirror as she made the last touch ups. perfection was achieved through hard labor, that much she knew. seemingly in a trance, trying to pick out any flaw that wasn’t apparent in the first place. if one’s broken on the inside, the least they can do is look perfect on the outside. it was his voice that brought her back to reality, shattering the illusion she’s drawn herself. cue a twirl, breaking all contact with that damned mirror, now gazing at teddy. with swift motions towards him, she found herself standing right in front of teddy. head slanted to the side as she sways in her place, all attention focused on him. ❝ ask me … what exactly? ❞ honey dripped tone as she queried, admittedly bewildered by what he meant. a soft chuckle passed pink lips as she sketched a smile. barbie was on edge, curiosity taking toll over her frame. with each second growing more and more impatient. ❝ c’mon it’s not nice to keep a gal waiting! ❞ she uttered, in a feeble attempt at calming her own nerves. something about the unknown terrified the living hell out of her, though she’d never admit it out loud.

the previous post explains some of my verses for barbie . as of right now , these are the ones that have been well thought out . more could come in the future , but keep in mind that they will all have the idea(l)s live forever vibe . i loved that in the movie and i think that applies to all dolls , including my own oc barbie the actress ! if you want a small thing ( short para or even one liners ) from barbie , please comment the verse you want her in & the muse you want it for ( in case you have a multi ) . the musing applies for all verses , but i gotta say im the most proud of the vampire lore . it's giving of interview with a vampire but throw the acting there and boom she now lives forever .
as promised , below the cut you can find my lil collection of barbie movies
the order is : barbie as the princess and the pauper ( first row left ) , barbie of swan lake ( first row right ) , barbie in the nutcracker ( 2nd now left ) , barbie as rapunzel ( 2nd row right )
there's also fairytopia stuck in the vhr for almost 2 decades ... if any1 has suggestions as to how to take it out , please do let a girl know ... the vhr doesn't eject automatically & tbh i don't think it works anymore . it does light up , it murmurs in ancient tongues when i press buttons like play / rewind / stop but that's about it .
i remember coming back from elementary school only to hop on pc for barbie horse adventure riding camp . those were the golden days . to this day i am thankful for the family friend that somehow got me this game when he realized letting an 8 year old play counter strike , shooting people and giggling wasn't okay . if any1 else played the game , do ya'll remember the glitch that transported you to another place that was inside this waterfall thing ? my memory may be skewed idk but i really loved that game . hence why it was so funny to me that horses were part of the movie . like hell yeah , horses rule !!!! speaking of this , later on today i will visit my grandma who found my barbie vhs tapes and the vcr . will update this post / reblog with the vhs tapes once i have them . i may also still have my horse toy from barbie , not too sure . can you tell your girl was into patriarchy horses ?
