And not just insane chemistry between them, also the fact that they can both act their butts off AND their voices mesh so perfectly together. Tim truly struck gold with Josh and Sof. Truly insane how much the universe knew Rina needed to be a story told. Makes me emotional haha
Absolutely
Unsure what any of us did for the universe to give them to us but here we are and I'm not complaining
Whenever I think about it my mind is blown
Sometimes it'll randomly pop into my head that Tim didn't really have a plan for the show, relationship/endgame wise when he started, and I guess he just knew what he was doing for that season and maybe kinda where he wanted the characters to end up roughly
And then all it took was Joshua and Sofia doing one scene in a car, he saw their chemistry and went THIS IS WHERE WE ARE GOING PEOPLE
And decided a season 3 would end in them kissing
Just wild really
How did they even stumble on those two, like the sheer LUCK at casting them both (as far as I'm aware they didn't do a chemistry read together?)
Universe really wanted a great Ricky and Gina story I guess
Was Ricky crying about Gina leaving in S4 the first time they all collectively saw him breakdown and just be emotional in general? (Aside from Jet who Ricky could hide nothing from and who always called him out)
I can't really think of another time he was that open in front of everyone with his feelings
No wonder they all join him in singing to Gina, they could all see how much they loved each other
Side note - Jet absolutely would have made jokes to Ricky about him running in and being dramatic after she'd already said she was staying 'well dune if you were just on time for once'
Also aside from with EJ in 4x05, I mean like as a group, because I'm pretty sure the majority of them never saw him be that open with his feelings before

Now I know somewhere Tim has notes on how that chocolates conversation went down on valentine's day with Ricky and Terri
And I need it
Because her attitude towards him 100% had to do with it and his attitude asking if she was going to show up for Gina at hsm3 didn't just come out of no where
I just know Ricky got sassy and protective over Gina and I need it
One of the biggest lies in season 4 is in the Halloween episode when Gina says she wants to kiss him and Ricky doesn't immediately get her to sneak away to kiss
Because let's be real, those two are too cute and excited and giddy about each other for her to be able to say that and then not immediately run away together to kiss for a bit
So are we thinking the first time Ricky started to realise he had feelings for Gina (post season2 break up) was when the boys were in Big Reds basement and Carlos mentions EJ and Gina?
I feel like he felt slight jealousy but maybe not realising that's what it was, and was a bit like ick why do I feel odd
That make sense?
In 2x01 Ricky assumes that the resolution about following dreams no matter how far they take me is Ginas
In 4x08 Gina follows her dreams by getting a movie to stay in Salt Lake, instead of taking her far away, and follows her dreams of being with Ricky
Excuse me while I cry
Forever feel robbed that we didn't get Big Reds reaction to Ricky and Gina being together
I would have liked an 'about time' or some comment on how he called it a year ago or something
Oh Gina's slight attitude towards Nini when they meet at auditions
She was checking out who the girl Ricky wanted back was
Go into life with the confidence of Gina Porter when it comes to Ricky Bowen because honestly that girl knew what she wanted and knew it was going to happen
Respect Gina, respect
Watching HSMTMTS from the start for the first time since it's ended
Excited to watch them all grow again
How relaxed Ricky is on stage for frozen and HSM 3 Vs his stressy self in HSM and Beauty and the Beast
Particularly HSM3 in night to remember, the pointing to his parents and knowing he won't lose his place or anything and it not effecting his performance 10/10
Ricky's first thought when EJ said he was talking to Val was absolutely about how he was going to tell Gina later
(Gina would obviously be happy for EJ)
That "really" just makes me think of that moment we all have when we mentally put something to the side to remember to tell our partners later and makes me laugh every time
Ricky not even bothering to lie/convince Jet that him and Gina aren't a couple is absolutely hilarious
Rixky knows it's a pointless battle because that boy sees straight through him (and his relationship with Gina) and always has and it's so funny
He doesn't even try, it's just like yeah alright Jet shut up
Hilarious
Also I don't want to say that Mack and Dani were acting like Ricky and N*ni were in S1 HSM production and that Quinn saying that was a chemistry problem means anything
But also... interesting
A line I haven't seen discussed enough 'my favourite secret ever' flat out adorable
If Sofia and Joshua don't work together in the future it's such a waste of chemistry
I'm so glad we got to see them together in HSMTMTS, and actually as a couple in it too because they're so good together
Their scenes are just always so beautiful and you can tell they care about each other
Their chemistry is just so good and them never working together again is a sad thought
