#//imagine a ship with a singer that doesn't go too well

[dookiecurly]

this is gonna be specific just hear me out okay this came to me in a vision +good for writing motivation or practice or whatever

imagine reader is some famous celebrity singer actor whatever and they go on the ship for whatever reason..maybe they really like space or something idk

how would they all act towards them?? would the way theyre treated get changed from their popularity?? 😳😳😳…?i cant imagine jimmy or curly acting too different towards them but daisuke maybe?? hes a fan idk im just thinking…

I'd imagine reader got on the ship because they wanted to experience space.... And because they paid lots for it.

Both before and after crash hc >∆<

Reader death not specified

Yes there's Jimmy, he's the tw

Curly

Before-Crash:

- Confused why Pony Express gave this.. celebrity.. permission to get on a cargo spaceship.

- Tries to be nice. He doesn't act like those ppl that are super excited to meet a popular person. To him, you're just another human.

- But of course, if you make a mistake on the ship he'll go a little easy on you. He assumes you probably didn't get much.. training.

- You're his responsibility as well now! But he also is probably too busy to give you a tour of the ship, he'll ask one of the others. ( Definitely not Jimmy or Swansea. )

- If he's interested in you..... I guess, small flirts when he's off the clock. He takes responsibility!

- Compliments your work if he's a fan.

After-Crash:

- Curly feels embarrassed, and even more embarrassed if he's interested in you.

- At some point, thinks you'll come back to earth and tell everyone what happened and how bad he is at being a captain. Plus, destroying Pony Express's name that MIGHT land a lawsuit.

- During all the........ Deaths, he felt bad that a person that shouldn't even be connected to all this is paying the untold price of going on the ship with them

- Probably wanted to kill himself when he was brought to the table and saw all those corpses!!

Swansea

Before-Crash:

- Doesn't give a shit

- Probably treats you JUST like Daisuke but is a little less aggressive..

- Actually, I think he thinks you're a liability and dislikes you because you're just a rich piece of shit that thinks they can do wtv they want

- Might MIGHT complain and say that you're a liability when something bad happens

- If he's interested in you, you probably remind him of his wife by appearance LMFAO, I'm just kidding I'm not funny.

- If he's interested in you, he'll treat you a little nicer.

- I don't think he'll be a fan..... Unless you're like, Shelly Duval or Frank Sinatra or something. (RIP SHELLY DUVAL AND FRANK SINTRA I LOVE YALL)

- Won't say he's a fan though.

After-Crash:

- I have a gut feeling that he'll act like those drunk adults that go like, “Isn't this how you teenagers do it? WOO!" But like in a "Aint this how you people do it in Hollywood?”

- Says you should get less food because you dont do work around the ship. Won't say this if... He's interested, or only if he's drunk and mad or mad.

- If you die before him, he'll feel a little guilty like he does with Daisuke. I don't know if it's a lot of guilt, but enough guilt.

Daisuke

Before-Crash:

- FUCKING ECSTATIC.

- Wants a picture, and a signature. Treats you special because you're a celebrity.

- Uses his free time to be your friend. If he's interested in you, hes gonna try to impress you with his intern task (Swansea fucking hates it).

- Brings you to fuck around in the ship because I'll assume that you're about the same age, or you at least have the same age mentality.

- If he's a fan, he's way worse/better. Your decision.

After-Crash:

- Once again, if hes interested in you, he tries to be your big prince charming. When they start rationing the food, he gives you more

- I don't know if he'll prioritise you because you're a celebrity, but he tries.

- Tries to cheer you up when things get bad

- If you die before him, he kinda just............ Guilt. Yeah, thats all. Kinda feels like he didn't help enough.

Jimmy

Before-Crash:

- Thinks you're a liability 2.0

- Doesn't respect you

- Thinks you're a bitch because your life is better than his on Earth

- Probably.... JUST PROBABLY, daydreams about doing things to you so he can 'humble' you. Likes the thought of such a loved and respected person gets humiliated.

- If he's interested in you.... He'll have worse thoughts.

- Probably complains about you, in front of you.

- Not a fan, doesn't like the internet.

After-Crash:

- Now thinks youre... Still the biggest liability of the ship. In fact, you're the worst of the worst.

- Says you should get less food because you don't do any work 2.0

- If you die before him... Awesome! Doesn't care. Won't spare you even if hes interested, but cares.

- Gets married to your corpse, AGAIN I'M KIDDING. Doesn't strike me as a person who'd get married unless it benefits him, actually nevermind, go read Jambalaya Enthusiast's fic about Reader in the film industry in Jambalaya Enthusiast's Masterlist.

Anya

Before-Crash:

- Might be curious?

- She'll be nice >u<

- Yeah, she's probably the one giving you a tour!

- Anya will be a little concerned that a person like you is on the ship. In a way that she's concerned that a person who doesn't have any training is on the ship.

- She'll be glad to help you with anything, like motion sickness.

- If she's interested, she'll try to do little gestures for you. I think her love language is acts of something something, I forgot.

After-Crash:

- Anya doesn't really want you to come into the medbay and look at Curly.

- She gets super nauseous, so she doesn't want you to get super nauseous in an unfamiliar and stressing environment.

- Perhaps will give you a little of her food with you. I feel like Jimmy has engraved into her brain that she's not a good enough nurse, so she thinks she doesn't deserve the food she eats ( because Swansea and Jimmy say you don't deserve the food. )

- Comfort her, she's dying in her thoughts and wants to go to the medicine supply.......

- If you die before her, she will actually start spiralling.

[tennessoui]

so i've been thinking about this premise for so long but it wasn't working for obikin (which of course i took as a challenge) and i think i finally got it where i want it so

au where 35 yo obi-wan is a music sensation across the world but he's recently divorced and going on tour again after releasing a very cutting, personal, and well-received album

and 19 yo anakin joins his tour with his very small band of two other people (ahsoka, padmé) to be his opening act - they have a small but loyal following, a pretty big social media presence, and there are even people who ship anakin and padmé which you know means these are die-hard fans

anakin has definitely looked up to obi-wan and his music for a good portion of his life and he's like. beyond excited that he's going to tour with The Obi-Wan Kenobi - this is big, not just for his music career but also for himself and the little boy he was listening to obi-wan's music for the first time!!

i'm just imagining like....obi-wan and anakin meeting after a few days of rehearsal for opening night, and it's not the most auspicious start because obi-wan's going through like 20 different emotions at any given moment (he's on tour, he's divorced, he's tired, he loves the music, he can't be the person he was in his twenties when he was first on tour but that's a whole different matter, he has all the media training and charismatic instinct to cover up these less than savory emotions with flirtatious empty words) and anakin is just like. sorta starstruck sorta shy sorta eager sorta awkward so:

"i'm uh, i'm a singer it's nice to meet you. hi yeah. hello. i'm on tour. as well. with you. actually." "ah no, are you one of my backing vocal artists? we can't have that - you're much too gorgeous and my ego is much too dependent on the audience focusing on me." "um 😳"

so it's a relationship that begins with a lot of flirting and being flustered and progresses through moments of vulnerability and honest emotion which turns into mutual affection which turns into anakin's celebrity crush becoming very real....meanwhile obi-wan googled anakin and the opening band after the first show/introduction and finds all the stuff about him and padmé being together and that's. that's fine. young love. how sweet. any sort of disappointment obi-wan feels is because he's recently divorced and bitter about it and he's going to have to spend at least half his tour watching the lovebirds snuggling up together.

and even when all the misunderstandings about relationship statuses have been addressed and the pretense has fallen away to leave just attraction, both have to think about their careers - it's all well and good for obi-wan to date someone sixteen years his junior, post divorce, but that's an image he's never wanted to deal with or be associated with. and this is the biggest shot of anakin's career - his best chance to make it in the music industry. in the words of his bandmate, is he really, honestly thinking about risking it for a chance to sleep with The Obi-Wan Kenobi?

but what his bandmate doesn't seem to really understand is that for anakin, obi-wan hasn't been The Obi-Wan Kenobi in a long time. he's just been obi-wan. and that makes a world of difference.

Random X-Men Headcanons!

Me and my friend have compiled a lot of headcanons for the X-Men (mainly formulated from jokes) so I wanted to put some here! A few of these are headcanons, most are jokes lol

Kurt listens to really peppy music when he's upset, the main one being the Beach Boys. Just imagine him, poor little German boy, singing Surfin' USA tiredly, trying to turn his mood around.

Erik listens to girly pop music, mainly Katy Perry and Ke$ha. Why? Because it's funny. Let him be girly pop.

Scott tells a lot of jokes but he's deadpan so people can never really tell. Like sometimes he'll just say some insane shit, plain faced, and see how the others react.

Dancing headcanons! Remy is a very good dancer, being particularly prolific in swing dancing. Logan somewhat refuses to dance, but he can line dance. Morph doesn't know how to dance, but they act like they can, dancing like a drunk white girl. Scott and Jean like to dance in private, but Scott gets nervous to dance in front of others. Ororo can bust that shit down.

Scott tries not to laugh when he, or someone else, is doing a bit. Like he tries not to break as he jokes along, to the point where he has to stop talking to not smile, biting inside of his mouth.

Furthermore! He also has a loud laugh, and people get a little caught off guard when they hear it. Me and my friend have described his laugh as a goose honk sound.

Kurt gaslights for fun, and he can get everybody pretty good, except Scott and Jean. You may think "oh because Jean's a telepath, right?" No, because--

Scott and Jean gaslight each other for fun, and they formulate these fake, big arguments, just as a bit. So, they're very familiar with gaslighting tactics, being they lie to each other as a joke, so when Kurt tries to, they immediately meet him-- A little too well, because Kurt is used to just messing with people.

Scott will occasionally freak people out by lowering his glasses (keeping his eyes closed of course). Like someone says "Hey, take a look at that." and he'll lower his glasses and go "Where?!" as a joke.

Everyone loves Kurt. Like, everyone. If Kurt doesn't like someone, everyone has a distaste for them as well.

Jean refers to her own psychic abilities as her "Jedi Mind Tricks"

This one isn't really a headcanon, just a running gag me and my friend do, but something bad will happen, or something inconvenient, and Remy will go "Don't worry.", insistently. Like a loud explosion can go off, and Remy will just say "Don't Worry." Occasionally this will be lengthened to "Don't what? Worry!"

We don't call Leech by his name. We call him Gneep Gnorp. That's it.

Kurt and Remy are super close (as pseudo brother in laws) and they hang out a lot, also doing that guy thing where they flirt with each other as a joke.

No one likes Emma. That's it.

Scott is autistic.

Warren is well manicured. He always has his hair just as he likes it, his wings always preened, his clothes always ironed. He'll a snazzy lookin' fella.

Rogue is a great singer. This barely a headcanon, her voice actress literally put out a song "Mojo Man (Ode to Remy LeBeau)", go listen to it.

Kurt's very coy and playful. Like, "Staaahhppp, hehe!" He also laughs at his own jokes all the time, like he cracks himself up.

Music headcanons! Here's just a few of the ones we made-- Scott likes dad rock obviously, mainly soft rock and folk rock (The Beatles, Hall & Oates, The Beach Boys, CSNY), Logan likes harder rock (Metallica, Alice Cooper, Motley Crue, Iron Maiden), Morph likes new wave and glam rock (Oingo Boingo, David Bowie, Talking Heads, Tears For Fears), Remy likes a fun mix of jazz, country, and soul, with a little rock sprinkled in (Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Billie Holiday, Queen), Jubilee likes a lot of pop, pop-rock, that sorta thing (Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, ABBA, Wham!)

Kurt has a lil hyperfixation on pirates and ships-- this is kinda canon in the comics. But he loves talking about pirate history and ships and misconceptions.

I'm sure there's a bunch of ones I can't remember but there ya go lol

thanks to @the-death-defying-night-crawler for being funny and making these with me lol

(this is so big I won't mind if you take too damn long to respond❤️ I understand you)

KDJDKSKKD WHAT? THAT'S SUCH A GOOD FUCKING PLOT OMG. I WOULD READ THAT EVEN WITH ORIGINAL CHARACTERS.

(but fuck yeah I agree, ellie would be such a good punk singer. Kind of emo girlie even. Have you checked maggie linderman? Her song"different" would kind of be something ellie would totally sing if she was a singer).

and omg I can see the vibes of the concept you're cooking in here. I can totally see both of them as "singers that got bad reputation for something" (🗣️I don't know what ellie did but I'm on her side🗣️), specially joel. On this, I can totally imagine that things to joel could have started to get bad in his life after he lost sarah in this universe too. And honestly sometimes paparazzi and interviewers can be so insensitive that it would be so joel to get his bad reputation also after fighting with so many of these people in the past if they asked about his past. Also, I would die to find what would their dynamic would be as singers if that story happened. Maybe when they start working together, their personalities can crush a bit because joel he was always used to being the lead singer in his band, giving orders and deciding things, but when he tries that with ellie thinking she would just listen, he soon finds out she has strong personality, doesn't really like to obbey and has a sense of criticism and leadership as much as him. Or maybe Joel has this boomer thought where he thinks this new generation of musicians are all amateurs and not good enough, and ellie is determined to make him realize he's wrong. But I can also see their personalities bonding so much when they really start to work on their album.

Omg have you listened to "exile" by taylor swift and Bon Iver? That would be so them coded wtf, I could totally picture them singing it wtfffffff (and bon iver's voice is so sexy and deep it reminds me of joel's👹)

So many things is reminding me of this concept you came up with actually. On the slutty side for example, there's this the weeknd song where he sings "we had sex on the studio" and well..👹that would be a scene worth reading sjjsjsj. On the soft side, there was this video on ig where a girl from a band was playing guitar and singing but her guitar's strap fell and she had to hold it, but her drummer came to rescue, fixed for her and he stroked her hair before going back and everyone in the audience was like "awww" and I WISH I COULD FIND THIS VIDEO AGAIN because that would be so them. Imagine if joel did this on a tour, but instead of stroking her hair he kisses her forehead😭 imagine if they also sing some songs looking at eachother like they're talking in form of music, like it's just them on the stage, OR OR if ellie convinces joel to be more in touch with being online, and his first few posts on social media is hanging out with her or posting a picture of her being distracted, and ellie gets all soft because how can she explain to this old man he's basically being her fan account😭? And oh my god Joel is a guardog in every fic, imagine if a paparazzi crosses some boundery with ellie and joel does something about it, but she contains him from doing more because he could get in trouble with media for it. Urgh I can totally see the controversy they would be, though. A lot of people would ship them but it could also get a bad reputation for joel for other reasons.

Hello nonnie cub - is this Miss Undercover or do we have another cub in our den who loves analyzing our fandom. Either way, I’m here for it!

First of all, thank you. I’m rather fond of that story - it’s about 35-40k in length right now. I have lots of ideas for it, but pulling it together has proven difficult when there are two stubborn fictional characters constantly screaming for attention - they know who they are and they need to sit down. 😏

If I were to write this in the TLOU universe, Joel would be on the far side of middle age, approaching or over 50, with a drinking problem, but trying to get sober. He’s been known to get aggressive with paparazzi. Ellie would be a punk rock princess with a serious attitude problem - the label won’t drop her because she’s so fucking talented, writes her own music, has been plucking guitars since she was a child - but she goes through producers like tissues and she’s had more lawsuits filed against her for assaulting paparazzi than the studio cares to acknowledge.

Their dynamic would be volatile at first - he can’t stand her music, thinks she’s too loud and chaotic. He’s more laidback, classic rock style, and Ellie calls him an old man - while she follows him around like a lost puppy. He’s gruff and mean, but he gives it to her straight, he doesn’t push her away like everyone else does - she sticks like glue.

I think Ellie would torment him with social media - especially old school instagram, trying to make photos artistic and flattering. She takes lots of photos of him hidden in shadows, dramatic and striking and he grumbles a lot but doesn’t ask for her to take them down. She starts taking selfies of them together - which of course ignites all sorts of speculation and paparazzi problems. Imagine Joel pushing them aside while they get in Ellie’s face. Ellie’s got fists swinging and eventually Joel grabs her and pops her feisty ass over his shoulder - lots of photos of her screaming as he carries her off.

Haha, stop. I have 3 stories going at once. I don’t know if or when I’ll ever sit down and revisit this original story. But this was fun

NEW THEME NEW THEME

also new opla oc?? SPILL -🍂

NEW THEME YES!! I've probably been due for one for a while, honestly, but when I saw Rachel Zegler as Lucy Grey Baird I was just like, yes (😅). Anyway, I'm glad you like it!!

And yes, I would be more than happy to tell you about my new babe! Here goes:

So, for starters, her name is Hayashi Lark and she's a Sanji ship, because I do love that gruff kickass cook. A lark, if you didn't know, is a bird that's pretty well-known for its beautiful song, but also for the fact that they don't sing while in captivity. As you may imagine, there is some symbolism going on with the name here.

Lark has been a singer employed by the World Government since she was very young - her parents were both governors of a relatively large village, and when their daughter began to show serious talent with singing from a very young age, they immediately put her in vocal lessons and lessons for various different instruments, and, when they deemed her trained enough, began to trot her out to sing at public events and at get-togethers with other Government officials. When Lark was nine, her parents both died from a bad fever that had ravaged the whole village, and since she had no other family to take her in, she was given over to the care of the World Government, and several officials remembered her performing at Government dinners and were like, "You know what? Let's turn this little nine-year-old girl into a showpony!".

And so it goes - from the age of nine, Lark is shoved into pretty dresses and shipped all across the several oceans, performing at Marine bases to boost morale. Most of the songs she sings are boring and mainly focused on how brave and just all Marines are, propaganda songs written by the Government itself, but she also writes her own songs, though most of them are much too focused on freedom and rebellion for her to be allowed to sing them onstage. She's also fascinated with pirate songs and sea shanties, the kind Marines would never be allowed to sing; whenever she can escape her handlers, she'll go looking for any place in a given village she thinks might have information on them and writes down whatever lyrics and notes she can find, saving them in a beat-up notebook that she takes with her everywhere. She wants nothing more than to escape the life of borderline captivity that she's been living and learn to play and sing as many pirate songs as she can, and maybe even write some of her own, but for a very long time that feels impossible.

And this, as you may have suspected, is where Luffy and company come in. In between Syrup Village and Baratie, they dock at the village Lark is currently performing in to pick up some extra supplies and stop to see her show in the town square. They're all really taken with her voice and presence onstage, but Luffy, being Luffy, can tell that she doesn't actually want to be doing any of this, and approaches her to offer her a place on the crew, or at least to help her get away from the Government and take her someplace else. Lark immediately accepts the place on the Straw Hats - after all, what better way to learn more pirate songs that to be on an actual pirate crew? - and with some moderate difficulty, they manage to collect the few belongings Lark wants to take with her, including her notebook and guitar, and escape on the Straw Hats' ship.

Now, when they get to Baratie and Luffy winds up being taken as a chore boy, Lark offers to pay off their dinner debt by doing a show at the restaurant. Zeff doesn't want a singer in his place, but agrees to let Lark sing one song in exchange for a month off of Luffy's sentence. Lark sings one of the only pirate songs she knows in full, actually managing to quiet the whole restaurant full of rowdy pirates with her voice, and Sanji takes one look at her while she's singing and goes, Oh, I'm in love. And though finding the All Blue is still Sanji's dream and main motivation, he will admit that some part of the reason he left Baratie with the crew was wanting to get to know Lark better.

Aaaand that's about all I have for her so far!! It might be a bit before I have a proper intro post for her, but if anyone wants to ask me more questions in the meantime, feel free!!

(Tagging the other OPLA girlies @starcrossedjedis and @auxiliarydetective!!)

[kurtcobainsgreencardigan]

pauuuuuuuuu i’ve got a question. i understand that you enjoy supernatural, so could you explain to me the whole destial thing? i’m like, fairly close to caving and committing myself to 15 fucking seasons of them and dean from gilmore girls (who i fucking hate(the character not the actor)) so like, i wanna know what i’m getting myself into, cause the only stuff i know is the meme that’s always going around, and that everyone and their mother is obsessed with dean winchester

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD @weeping-in-the-willows WE'VE DONE IT!!!

okay andi here we go its gonna be LONG (thats what she said?)

Destiel is a ship between two main characters, Dean Winchester, who is a monster hunter, and Castiel, who is an angel of the lord. Although Cas does not appear until season 4(?), when he does it's clear there's something going on between the two men (boys?), and, whether or not it's intentional, there's a LOT of gay subtext. I think they suffer a lot but it's worth it for the very few moments they get to enjoy, and you value them so much more which makes it so enjoyable.

As for Sam Winchester (Dean Forester), he's a young man with daddy issues who never met his mom and decided that instead of having that horrible monster hunter life he wanted to go to Stanford and study law and have a great academically successful life (Sam and Rory Gilmore would be best friends). He's a sweet, kind, smart, driven, ambitious (and hot) 22(!) year-old who would never voluntarily hurt a fly. Obviously life had other plans for him but what happens to him is up to you. Now, I will say that I'm not the biggest mid-series seasons Sam fan, but I think early Sam was one of my first fictional crushes and I still think of him fondly. His favorite singer is secretly Celine Dion.

Dean Winchester also has daddy issues but as in yes-dad-I'll-do-everything-you-say-so-that-you-love me-while-his-dad-still-loves-sam-more daddy issues (which I know all too well not not the time nor place), whereas Sam was more like "No dad, this is YOUR dream". Dean is like that jackass who thinks he's this huge deal and he think he's really hot and smart and always right, which is infuriating because it's true. But really imagine a giant teddy bear with a flannel. that's Dean Winchester. It's a bit funny but for him the most important thing ever is his family and he will fight with all his might to save it, blood or found, he will die for them over and over again with no regrets, except that one where his daug we don't talk about that. He's also incredibly funny, he likes Frozen and dad rock and pie.

Cas is an angel who very often forgets that. Funny thing about this guy is that they first portray him as like this scary creature, he's the most powerful thing they've ever faced and he's so intimidating but once they get to know him he's really just like if an alien saw a hot guy and went "that one". He talks to cats sometimes.

About the show itself, the firsts seasons they think they're like this moody, serious show, but as it goes on it quickly turns into a comedy. They meet Scooby-Doo once. There's a musical. Doctor Sexy wears cowboy boots. Dracula. Ghostfacers!

Now, I wouldn't go as far as "recommending" it to someone, but if i could start clean and had the choice to watch it again for the first time, I'd tell them put me back in it, and I would cry and curse and suffer, but I'd go through it again.

And that is all, unless Willow wants to add something?

Also I would avoid the last episode, I would not watch it if I were you, I wish I never saw it and I pretend it doesn't exist, it is not canon if I say it is not and I refuse to recognize it as such. Thank you.

02: Lyrics from the most recent song that made you think of a Marauders Era character

Last night I was listening to July by Laur Elle (who is amazing btw and just put out a new album) and the lyrics below made me think of Sirius and the self-loathing of his teen years that he just...completely keeps to himself.

One step forwards, falling backwards I just wanna prove that I'm worth More than what my head tells me that I am I'll try again How do I fake a smile and feel the tension? Wait, I'm moving too fast in the wrong direction I've been running around in the dark with no light But I can't stop staying up looking for signs

08: Lyrics that make you FERAL about your favorite character

Muahaha I get to do another one >:) Okay so technically this is a prongsfoot song (or wolfstar if that's your vibe) but oh my FUCKING god I feel like Sirius Black wrote it and I scream and cry in the car to it and it tears me in two, so, uh, enjoy (giving you both the verses and then the chorus which is essentially the whole song but it's worth it).

[verse 1] Around the sun and around again You seem to look right through me Another year being your best friend Feels like you always knew me And I'm so proud to call you mine Feels like I know you from another life [chorus] [verse 2] Around the clock, we can talk for days 'Bout how we saw it coming Another sign written on my face 'Cause now my blood is pumpin' Can you just hold me for a little while? My skin is crawling, I feel vile [chorus] But what if it doesn't end well Would you still stay? What if I fuck it up like I always do And my shit gets in the way? What if it doesn't end well Would we still be fine? When the world is over and we go under Would you still be mine?

17: Lyrics you think perfectly describe Remus Lupin

Oh, the entire song Half a Man by Dean Lewis, hands fucking down. But here are the beginning lyrics. I mean ugh he literally believes he's half a man; the second line could refer to him telling Tonks things are over with him and Sirius when they're not. The rest needs no explanation imo. I mean, it's just. It's perfect.

I was wrong to say I loved her, I was wrong to think I'm right When I told her it was over, oh my darling I had lied I've been running from my demons, afraid to look behind I've been running from myself, afraid of what I'd find But how am I supposed to love you when I don't love who I am? And how could I give you all of me when I'm only half a man? 'Cause I'm a sinking ship that's burning, so let go of my hand Oh how can I give you all of me when I'm only half a man?

21: Lyrics from a song you think the Marauders Era girlies would perform if they were an all-girl band (+ tell us what their performance would be like)

I fucking love that several people asked about this one. Hot of you all. Okay first of all I need to say imagining Lily Evans as the leader singer of an all-girl band is.......one of the hottest things I've ever thought of, jfc. Okay but um anyway I LOOOOVE this song for Lily, and I think it applies to all the first war Order girlies, who were FUCKING BAD ASSES and probably disappointed people by not being the same old girls they used to be. So please enjoy a snippet of EAT ME by Demi Lovato, feat. Royal & the Serpent.

Is this what you'd all prefer? Would you like me better if I was still her? Did she make your mouths water? Ugh I know the part I've played before I know the shit that I've ignored I know the girl that you adored She's dead, it's time to fucking mourn I can't spoon-feed you anymore I can't spoon-feed you anymore Dinner's served, it's on the floor I can't spoon-feed you anymore You'll have to eat me as I am You'll have to eat me as I am

Lyrics Ask Game: Marauders Edition

[1mnobodywhoareyou]

45 and 62!

OK this is interesting actually.

45 is Let's Chomp from Bidoof's Big Stand (thanks, kid). Which... Doesn't have any lyrics but has a jazzy sound. So...

I'm imagining adult Julie and Reggie dragging the others to dueling pianos? And there's a strict dress code where they want to go. Reggie and Julie are stoked to go all out in getting fancy and choose to get ready together, not letting anyone see them until they're done.

Alex is whatever about it but willing, Luke is absolutely resistant to not only sleeves but also shiny shoes. Alex takes responsibility for forcing Luke into both of those items and it's absolute chaos, as we would expect. But Alex does ultimately win. I'm imagining maximum exasperation and banter.

Alex loses his shit over Willie being all dressed up and Willie soaks it up. Reggie and Julie take a joint staircase moment and Luke forgets how to breathe for half a second (I'm undecided of how this would play out ship wise? We could have Juke or PeterPatterLina or pre-any of them. They're all very pretty in any case.) Reggie exaggeratedly spins Julie to show her off (as one does) to lots of giggling and she returns the favour.

They obviously have a great time and Luke doesn't fight quite so hard next time they need to dress up.

62 is Wow... So I'll twist it up a bit with the Carrie vibes from a WIP

Dirty Candi is *THE* act for the label they're signed with. And Carrie knows it. They know it. Everyone knows it.

Time and fame have both chilled her out a bit and she's much less "mean girl" and a lot more tired. But she stands up for herself and her group members which means she has a reputation for being "difficult." But they keep bringing in money, so they execs deal with it. She knows this too.

The label pairs her up with one of their other songwriters who is also lead singer and guitarist for a pop punk band (and might be her only real competition for top act of the label) for some vision they have for Dirty Candi's next single. It does NOT go well. Lessons are learned and that partnership is never attempted again.

She mentors up and coming artists and makes sure they learn how to navigate their own negotiations and don't get taken advantage of. She hates a lot of the life that she's found herself in but she finds purpose in helping these kids realize their potential.

Mkay. I think I'll stop there. THANK YOU! Send me a number between 1 and 101 and I’ll tell you what fic I would write based on the corresponding song from my Spotify Wrapped playlist!

If you should choose between one ship, Which ship would you make canon between Drake x Your OC and Fenton X Your OC ??

Oh, wow. You practically picked my favorite subject to talk about. I love my OC, and I love the romance she has with both Drake and Fenton. They are both amazing characters, and I enjoy writing both of them. But they are, when it comes to romance, two completely different people.

Fenton and Charity (Fenity) together are a sweet and loving couple, and I can imagine them starting out a little shy around each other. As I've written them, neither Fenton nor Charity have been in a serious relationship. They both have dated in their past, but Fenton was too busy with his education and getting the internship at McDuck Enterprise to have dated. Charity didn't date, not from choice, but because she didn't want anyone else involved in her family's curse. Her mother also kept her away from the world with small, controling rules, and Charity sort of just complied because it made sense.

I can imagine Charity and Fenton learning together about what love and romance is, and learning about each other. Charity gets Fenton to open up about small and simple pleasures and to have fun, and Fenton shares the world as he sees it, both the scientific side and the heroic aspect of his world. Music is a big factor in their relationship. Not only is Charity talented in singing, but (my headcannon) Fenton's family has a lot of dancers, musicians and singers, so he always grew up learning to do all of these things. He's a great dancer and can play the guitar, so he takes Charity dancing frequently.

Their biggest trouble comes from that in the beginning, Fenton's lack of confidence often makes him feel inadequate to date Charity. He feels that someone as beautiful as her would have chosen him (he doesn't know how adorkable he is) and his lack of confidence sometimes gets in his way. As for Charity, she often wonders if Fenton would eventually get board of her. He is a brilliant scientist and inventor (not to mention, he's Gizmoduck), but she's a twenty-five-year-old woman who lives with her parents, hasn't held a job, and only has a high school diploma. However, when she gets depressed, she can easily bolster up her confidence and work toward changing her situation. And when Fenton brings his concerns to her, she is more than willing to sing his praises and tell him how lucky she is to be his girlfriend.

Drake, on the other hand, is experienced in the romance departmen, having had multiple girlfriends in his past. He is very confident and knows he is good-looking. He is not a playboy, but he does have an ego. Charity is confident in herself as well, but her lack of experience in romance often has her second-guessing her actions with Drake. She also is a bit intimidated by dating him, more because she wants to take things slow and is worried that he wants to go faster.

But once they get things figured out, they tend to be in sinc with a lot of things. They are both passionate people when it comes to their morals, their work and their friends/close family. They both have their hang-ups, but they always come through with each other.

When it comes to Darkwing Duck, Charity has patience and understanding to Drake's situation. She has watched the old Darkwing Duck show, and has prior knowledge that Drake could be called on a moment's notice and the danger he would put himself through. She understands that she'll be stood-up for dates and events, she understands that she may stay up many nights, worrying over him (and Launchpad and Gosalyn, of course), and she knows that Drake must be Darkwing Duck. There is no changing that. However, sometimes she might resent it, but she understands.

But which one would I choose to have be made into Canon? Well...that is a complicated question. Mostly it's because I've never considered Charity's story (Twisted Strings of Fate) to ever be canon. It's not really a big desire for me to make it canon. I liked the show how it is, and I wished that it could have gone for season 4 (or have a Darkwing Duck reboot based off of it), but I'm not hung up on the fact that things are as it is.

But if I got to chose, like Disney came to me and said I was able to do either DT season 4 or a DWD reboot and that Charity would be a main character, I probably would choose the DWD reboot. I didn't much care for Gandra Dee at first (but she's slowly growing on me) and I wouldn't change the FentonXGandra relationship just for my own hubris. So it would be DrakeXCharity (Drakity) as my choice.

Hey :)

Sorry in advance for this random ask but when thinking of JayFoei you're the first person that comes to my mind.

So, my friend made me sit through two whole seasons of The Kardashians and today I suddenly had this thought like "how interesting would a stylist!enemies-to-lovers story be?" And I don't know why, but the first persons I connected to being stylists were Jay and Foei - maybe because I'm playing a little with a new JayFoei OneShot in my head anyway, but maybe it's also because Jay always has really good outfits and Foei also gives off a fashion interested vibe to me. And suddenly there was this little AU in my mind, where Kuea is a well known singer/idol and Hia Lian is his rival in public, maybe also an idol or a model or something (and therefore, Jay and Foei are also rivals because Jay is Kuea's stylist and Foei is Lian's), and every time they go out in public or on events, Jay and Foei try to out-do each other through Kuea's/Lian's looks and outfits but as more time passes, JayFoei start to take an interest in each other because they admire each other's works.

And the public and fans really start to ship Kuea and Lian because at some point, their outfits and styles start to match and complete each other, but in reality it's just a result of Jay and Foei falling for each other.

Yeah, to be honest I don't really know where to go with this one but I thought I might share this since Cutie Pie 2 You clowned us once again considering Jay and Foei. I wish you a good evening! :)

SCREAMING AT A FREQUENCY ONLY DOGS CAN HEAR JAYFOEI RIVAL FASHION STYLISTS AU IS SOMETHING I DIDN'T KNOW I NEEDED BUT NOW I WANT IT SO BADLY BECAUSE IT WOULD WORK SO WELL!!!!!!!!

i definitely agree with you on foei being interested in fashion, and maybe it's just because he is lian's assistant so he needs to have some knowledge on a lot of different topics, but the way he said "the costumes are tailor-made by le croque paqui" in the first episode of cutie pie 2 you really reinforces the impression that at the very least he enjoys keeping up with trends and designers. and like you said, jay always had such great outfits in season 1, so it's not hard to imagine him being into fashion too, but it does feel like they would have wildly different styles: jay probably prefers a vibe of looking elegant and nonchalant at the same time, where clothes are comfortable but never sloppy, while i just KNOW that foei likes everything glam and colorful and extravagant (of course when it comes to pick outfits for lian he would tone it down because you have to consider the personality of the person wearing the clothes too, but i like the idea of foei always putting some hints of color in lian's clothes as a sort of signature)

and i think in this AU the enemies to lovers dynamic would fit them SO WELL, because i can easily see them always arguing about which style is better and trying to outdo each other and racing to contact certain brands or designers to purchase a particular item or clothes collection before the other can do it. i also feel like foei would take this rivalry so seriously and consider jay his nemesis, his foe, his mortal enemy, while jay just enjoys riling foei up and sees it as something that makes the job more fun. until maybe one day there's some kind of issue with kuea's outfit, like maybe someone switched the clothes because they're jealous or just want to make either kuea or jay look bad, and foei sees how much jay is struggling and doesn't want to 'win' just because someone else sabotaged him, so foei decides to help him. after that, the next time foei calls a designer to get the latest clothes collection for lian, they tell him someone already bought it, but then the collection gets delivered to foei's office with a small note from jay that says 'you can have this one. thank you for your help'

and after that they start to get closer and despite their rivalry they actually respect each other a lot and they find out they have the same ridiculous sense of humour, AND I CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO TELL YOU JUST HOW MUCH I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE IDEA THAT EVENTUALLY THEY UNCONSCIOUSLY START TO INCORPORATE LITTLE THINGS IN THEIR CHOICE OF CLOTHES FOR LIAN AND KUEA THAT REMINDS THEM OF THE OTHER'S STYLE!!!!!! like suddenly kuea has small pops of color in his outfits and lian is wearing more accessories like rings or earrings, and the more they match the more it becomes a sign of jayfoei getting closer and closer!!!!

AND IDK WHERE IM GOING WITH THIS EITHER AND IM SORRY IT GOT SO LONG BUT I LOVE IT AND IF YOU EVER FEEL LIKE WRITING SOMETHING ABOUT IT I WILL GIVE YOU ALL MY SUPPORT

Thinking about a 2D who hasn't been called his real name in years. No one calls him Stu or even Stuart. No one except Murdoc.

He's sure he would have forgotten his own name, his true name, by now if it weren't for Murdoc.

It's only ever during sex though, that Murdoc calls him Stu. When Murdoc is buried balls deep inside him and he's on the verge of an orgasm that just keeps building but won't come. Heh. Cum. Because Murdoc won't touch his goddamn clit, instead pounding away into 2D like it's the only goddamn thing in the world that's worthwhile. But 2D does get to cum, after Murdoc does, with those fingers painfully pinching his clit and that rough voice in his ear saying "good boy, Stu" and it sounds so genuine and full of love and maybe the abuse Murdoc puts him through every day is worth it because he is a good boy and he's not just 2D, the idiot singer, but someone worthy of feeling good. (FEEL GOOD.... INC. LMAOOOOO.)

Of course the niceness doesn't last, it never does. And Murdoc will deny it until the end of time. And sometimes 2D goes so long without the whole "sex with Murdoc" thing that he really does start forgetting his own name. Horrifying. But then it happens, without warning, without consent, and 2D is reminded that he's not just good for singing and piano and eye-candy, he's... Well. A good hole for Murdoc to ffuck. And it feels like it should be more. He should feel more human when he's called Stu. But he doesn't. He feels loved, yes, the way a child loves their favorite toy. He can never tell the difference when it comes to Murdoc though. Hell, Murdoc could punch him in the stomach and he'd be so high off the positive, intimate attention of sex that he wouldn't feel it. Well, wouldn't feel it because of the high of painkillers among other things.

Ok!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am. Going to stop that there because I am. Going full ffucking ramble mode and cannot stick to the damn point of the post which is "2D only getting called his real name by Murdoc during sex" because I apparently cannot contain myself. And nonsense is a language I am extremely fluent in. This isn't even horny, it's too disjointed and disorganized to be horny or make sense. It's like. Ffucking nothing. Too many ideas bouncing around that I want to use in a smut for this ship, but this post is not the place to do it. I'd need the self-restraint that I do not have in order to properly explore all the ideas I imagine. I'd need a chapter devoted to each toxic aspect and kink and I'd need to learn to not go hamfisting every little part of my ideas for them into every goddamn paragraph.

I feel as though my writing reflects my art, detailed in a way that clutters it rather than enhances it.

Ah well. For art I enjoy it. For writing I do too. For longer pieces though, not for little blurbs on tumblr.

God though there are. A lot of concepts that I want to explore through Murdoc and 2D.

OKAY i want to list the songs from the Suddence playlist that fit these

accurate to the character's story: LIAR by the arcadian wild. literally EXACTLY what dany is going through. it's actually kind of scary. listen i can't post exactly which lyrics are relevant because it's literally just the entire song. but for the sake of this post, it's these:

I sense deception to come Honestly, truth and I are never one 'Cause I am the lying man And I have made you my next victim Oh, I need you to see through my act To tell me I'm wrong, to take off the mask Or else I'll be left in the lie And I'll deceive my way straight to demise

doesn't fit but i was thinking about the character: CHERRY TREE by the national. i think it's a song about someone being cheated on but he doesn't want to confront his lover about it so he just keeps quiet about it BUT LIKE. the whole idea of "i know a secret but i don't want to talk about it" and the dark and cautionary mood of the song and the constant repetition of "loose lips sink ships" and the singer very clearly trying to evade a confrontation? that's just. that's dany, man. if i just pretend this song isn't about infidelity then it's about dany.

one or two lines accurate: DEAR WORMWOOD by the oh hellos. the lyrics can kiiiiinda of be about dany (in vibes at least) but the last bit really makes me think of them

I know who I am now I know who I want to be I want to be more than This devil inside of me

the character's vibe: the main theme from the movie LOGAN. it's that melancholy and lonely vibe, man. also Suddence is inspired by Logan so it tracks.

i personally like it and want the character to listen to it: SUMMER BEGS by sarah jaffe. it's sad-sounding but HOPEFUL!! it's about finding a better future! it about peace in life despite everything! dany needs to hear it so bad

Sing to me now Right out your window Your father'd be proud Now that it's simple But don't sing too loud You'll wake up the neighbors And they will complain So I must persuade them Hold it right there I don't wanna move And summer it begs It begs us to prove That we can last Just one more season And that there, gives me a reason

fits the character so well it's scary: I FOUND A WAY by first aid kit. also so accurate it's scary. this song and LIAR are top contenders for "most accurate".

So the morning came and swept the night away As I was looking for a way to disappear Amongst the quiet things and all these empty streets I found a way, I found a way, to reappear

don't know why it's here: i keep my playlists carefully curated so every song has at least a tangential relation to the story, so any song that i was only emotionally attached to were removed. HOWEVER, i do remember one of them being IT TORE YOUR HEART OUT by dirt poor robins, which i DO imagine someone editing a very angsty AMV to if Suddence ever becomes a show, but whenever i review the lyrics i'm just like. man. i have no idea what this song is even about. my interpretation brain is in the gutter. (although now i'm considering putting it back on the playlist if CHERRY TREE is allowed to be there...) anyway these are the lyrics that are relevant:

It tore your heart out Oh! When you didn’t understand Why you want what you wanted

character playlists always should have the following:

song that is pretty accurate to the character’s story

song that doesn’t fit the character at all but i was thinking about them while listening to it on loop

song that has one or two lines accurate to the character’s story

song that just kind of is the character’s vibe

song that i desperately wish they would listen to because i personally like it

song that fits the character so well that it’s scary

unsure why this song is in the playlist but it’s so ingrained in my mind as 'part of the playlist' that it would feel weird to remove it

please do not plagarise or reword my work thank you

❦ a lot of aquarius moons lived unfortunate lives, for example, marilyn monroe, princess diana and britney spears.

❦ i realised something very very strange, is that many celebrities who have sanpaku eyes have sagittarius prominent in their chart or have them in their axis points (ASC, IC, DSC & MC)

(By the way people who have sanpaku eyes normally die way younger than they should have)

- billie eilish has sagittarius in her mc

- princess diana has sagitarrius in her ascendant

- michael jackson has sagittarius in his mc

- prince has sagittarius in his east point (it's a intersection with the ascendant)

- madonna has sagittarius in her ic

- robert pattison has prominent sagittarius in his chart

- kaia gerber has sagittarius in her east point

- aaliyah has sagittarius mc

- amy winehouse has sagittarius in her descendant

i mean this is just an observation but...

❦ can we PLEASE talk about the anti christ's birth chart?????

he's a whole aquarius stellium like all personal planets in aquarius then he has sagittarius in mc, (imagine if he had sanpaku eyes)

❦ a lot of opera singers have fire mercuries or a fire sign in the third house

❦ leo moons loved their mother's attentions when they were toddlers, more like craved it

❦ taurus mars love vanilla scented things

❦ fire signs in the third house were definitely the students shouting in the morning or just doing something loud

❦ air signs in the third house were the students that were always early for breakfast in school

❦ water signs in the third house either came early or were the latest

❦ earth signs in the third house were the students that took their time to come school

❦ mercurians speak a lot, a surprise? nope

❦ gemini in 12th house may find it easier to manifest than others

❦ someone with virgo and cancer placements in their big three were most likely teacher's pet

❦ neptune dominant people look like mermaids, well mostly the women

❦ women with prominent lilith in their chart may attract envious women

❦ female air signs were definitely the ones in p.e, not wanting to do a single shit lol

❦ a lot of pisces folks obsess over their crush...especially if they're celebrities

❦ realised with @fatalinsomia is that people with saturn square mars might argue with their fathers a lot

❦ having cancer in 8th house would indicate someone not having the nurture they expected from their mother, and their mother may have brushed off their problems a lot

↑ adding on people with cancer in the 8th house will be able to sympathise with children who go through traumatic situations

❦ if you have your sun sign's planet, for example aquarius sun, my planet will me uranus, if you have it badly aspect your moon sign it may indicate you having a bad or not the best relationship with your mother

❦ twitter has an aries sun, the chaos that happens there makes a lot of sense, it being fire dominated too makes the chaos more understandable

❦ instagram has an libra sun, I KNEW ITTTTTT, for what it's used for, insta having a libra sun just makes so much sense

❦ facebook has an aquarius sun, it being one of the most original social medias and it landing in the sign of originality makes everything more clear

❦ tumblr is an aquarius too, tumblr is mainly about sharing, creating and so on, so both facebook along with tumblr landing in aquarius doesn't surprise me, since them both of them being about is mainly community

❦ not only pluto can indicate what you can obsess over, the sign gemini can indicate what you obsess over too. for example, if you have gemini in the seventh house, you might obsess over talking about relationships, spouses, partner ships etc

okay i'm taking a break now

Heyo! Your writing is pretty good : D

Maybe some wholesome and/or interesting dad!Luffy headcanons? Go wild with it.

Thank you!! We got tons of Dad Luffy and his kiddo reader coming up in the next week or so!

~~~

-It's not that Luffy is a lousy parent; he just doesn't always think about the consequences of his actions. He has a habit of running off to whatever great thing has grabbed his attention, and a small child is not much an attention grabber.

-He heavily relies on the concept of "it takes a village to raise a child" when it comes to his own children. Luffy could go gallivanting off to some dangerous place and trust that (Name) would be well taken care of on the ship. Maybe Aunt Robin is teaching them to read, or perhaps Uncle Franky has made them some cool new toy, but the kid is safe and comfortable either way.

-That's not to say that Luffy is never present in the life of his kids. He adores them and wants to spend time with them. He just gets... distracted. Yeah, distracted is a good word for it.

-Luffy is a terrible singer, but he still sings lullabies to his kids when they're little. He doesn't really know any songs, so he makes his lullabies up on the spot. Sometimes it's about something interesting he saw that day, or sometimes Luffy creates a theme song just for his kid.

-He tries to start involving his children in his mischief. Maybe it's terrible, but Aunt Nami would never yell at (Name) over a prank; they are too little and too cute for that. Luffy uses this to his advantage.

-Luffy isn't much of a worrier either. He doesn't mind if they wander off and get into trouble. He did that all the time, and he turned out great! He's the pirate king, for the Gods sakes.

-Ironically, Luffy believes that the consequences of one's actions are punishment enough if you get into trouble. Maybe a little lecturing or a light scolding but nothing too severe. As long as his kids try not to get themselves arrested or killed, he doesn't mind.

- Listen, kiddo, nothing is illegal as long as you don't get caught, but you probably shouldn't call the marines "fuck-heads" to their face. Unless they were being "fuck heads."

[katatonicimpression]

Somehow no one has given you Pyro for the ask game, so please do Pyro.

The lovely @sammysdewysensitiveeyes has already done this more thoroughly and expertly than I could but I'll give it a go anyway:

do I like them:

Yes!

5 good qualities:

Good singer. I choose to take that line of dialogue in xmen green at face value. St. John can sing.

He is clearly a good writer, both in his journalism and romance fiction

He's a team player, a loyal henchperson

He's pretty affable, gets on well with people. A social butterfly.

I think he's pretty intelligent too. He does stupid things - a lot of stupid things - but he has intelligent thoughts. Like, he's more of a guy you'd want to chat with over a beer than put in charge of anything important, but for sure you'd find the conversation stimulating.

3 bad qualities:

He has a pesky habit of setting people on fire

Did I mention that he makes a lot of bad decisions? He makes a lot of very bad decisions.

He's argumentative. Idk if this is veering into headcanon territory although we do see him rant about stuff a few times. I imagine he gets very defensive about his life choices and doesn't like to admit his mistakes all that much.

favourite episode/etc:

Tempted to say this:

Can I put all his appearances in xmen evolution as one? Probably less than five minutes of screen time but it's all gold.

otp:

Bobby. The movie version is my nostalgic tween ship, the comics version is an obsession that I can't seem to shake.

brotp:

I love how loyal he seems to be to Mystique in the comics. Although idk if she considers him a friend (but she does secretly like him I think). Also I like his admiration for Storm in Marauders, their interactions in her goodbye issue were a lot of fun.

ot3:

OK so this has now come up for all three of them. Bobby, St. John and Shinobi. It still makes sense to me idk what to tell you.

Alternatively, put Pyro with Avalanche (another great pairing) and throw in a third. If its xmen evo, make that third person quicksilver. No, I won't explain that.

notp:

I don't think I have any? Although, I don't want to be *like that* but even though he's not actually, technically, canonically gay, I do find straight pairings for him to feel a bit wrong. Not in a "ew no" way or anything. They just feel kinda surreal.

best quote:

I struggled to think of any tbh, but I did like this scene. Also I'll accept any time he's like

"Mwahaha I'm an evil villain and I'm winning this fi- UNGHF"

Gets hit on the head and knocked out cold.

head canon:

He did English lit at uni. Did a bit of crit theory and claims he knows a lot of philosophy. He knows some foucault and that's about it.

He's gay.

He's always been politically radical, even when he had a normal, non-terrorist career.

His powers theoretically allow him to do a lot more than what he normally does with them (e.g. like manipulating the fire another fire mutant created, or "flaming off" the human torch) but he's just not that good at it.

He's good at haggling.

Him and Lockheed are still besties despite him leaving the crew

He still smokes. What's it gonna do? Kill him again?
