𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝟓 𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, share the top songs in your playlist that most inspire / represent your muses the most. bonus points if you include lyrics to go along with it.
1. Gathering Storm - Pentakill - It’s a song to rally an army to rise against the enemy, a legion that has gathered to face whatever threat stands against them and salvation. it doesn’t matter how many soldiers or demons or angels you bring to the fight, the army that has gathered to answer the rally will die to their last breath fighting for what they believe in! The very definition of the Legion and what Zoya stands for. syndicate will change whether by force or fire. \m/
2. Touch Off - Uverworld - The song is an allegory for freedom and a future that’s so close within reach. how it fits with zoya is her own ambition to remake syndicate into a land that’s actually worth the dirt that it’s on, the fuse mentioned in the song itself can be taken literally in this case if you look and listen to it in the perspective of one like zoya who has such strong ambitions. fuse is lit, about to go boom, if syndicate has to burn for it to change, then she will light that fuse and remake it from the ashes of her destruction.
3. The Call - 2WEI, Louis Leibfried, Edda Hayes - Here’s where the pattern starts to be clear, this is a more emotional rallying song but it fits a lot more with the Legion itself, the group that zoya leads as their alpha and beacon of hope. they will answer and rise to her orders, willing to put their lives on the line to fulfill their leader’s wishes. and without a doubt, zoya will lead from the front as an example to her fellow wolves, the pack that she had raised and nurtured. they will rise to the call and achieve their goal no matter the cost.
4. Primal Wonder - Raon Lee - This song very much fits along with what takes place after chapter 6 and I can’t really say why it means a lot without spoiling things that are part of the plot. But the main gist of it, or at least my interpretation is that it’s a song about new beginnings. What you did and failed to do? It doesn’t matter, even if it was a lie, turn it into truth. Make it a reality and grab fate by the throat and tell it to fuck off. You are the one in control, and the lyrics translated speak volumes for Zoya when taking what happens into account. But I suppose it can also fit with Zoya’s self-doubts when becoming leader of the legion. Even if what she believes in turns out to be a lie, she’s gonna fight for a brighter future no matter what happens.
5. What Could Have Been - Sting - Yes, it’s that really sad song at the end of Arcane. Not only does this song make me cry a lot but looking at it and listening to it as zoya hurts harder than a truck hitting you at 100mph. again, i won’t say spoilers but the song really epitomises a cacophany of emotions and feelings. sorrow, reminiscing of past days without responsibility and of course, a looming dread of vengeful retribution, revenge. she puts up a strong front but... i honestly feel zoya perfectly encapsulates this song.

Orym is giving very "I have fallen in love again and that feels like a betrayal to my dead husband" energy.
He's also giving "I care so much about my friends and I have to protect them but the love I have for one is so strong that it's distracting me AND it's not fair to the others"
Like there is so much love contained in the Orym and also so much guilt.
#dorym#cr 3#orym of the air ashari#i promise ill watch the campaign eventually#i cant not#but im just sittitng here wildly speculating#because i havent seen them#i miss my boys#dorian storm#i also dont know if orym knows how much he means to everyone?#like i know the crown keepers at least love him so much#and im sure the bells hells adore him just as much or more#and he just seems like he doesnt know#i saw a thing about how sam was crying in cr 1 because he couldnt save liam and like?#the caption was like “liam not realizing anyone was trying ti save him” (or something) and thats just so orym#he doesnt let other people protect him#thats why dorian is so special#dorian has always been focused on orym#whether he knew it or not.#like truly that “orym doesnt know is doruan feels the same way” when thats literally all dorian has been showing him#i thought it was so obvious in exu prime.#more obvious than oryms feelings#and orym is just like “he couldnt possibly”#ORYM OF THE AIR ASHARI YOU ARE LOVED#YOU ARE LOVED SO FUCKING MUCH#okay ill shut up the tags are longer than the post#silver sending stones

Take my "How much of an eeeevil hardcore stan are you" uquiz
According to MEEEEEEEEE
#PSA: on this blog a hardcore stan is someone who simps for a char so hard#that they blame other characters for the bad things their fave did or hate everyone else like pretty intensely and probably in a somewhat.#warped way.#For those who don't know how I use the term#this has been my joke since forever in my don't feed the stans after midnight tag but some may be unaware <3#just loving a character or saying they did nothing wrong should not get you a result about hating the others.#idk how sensitive the poll results are either tho since it's basically like a pass/fail tho so *shrug*#i think this is an issue also for samcas (platonic or romantic) which is SUPPOSED to be an option but apparently they are getting served#accusations of being cas haterz my apologies 😔#poll#don't feed the stans after midnight

ive officially entered the stage of OC brainrot where i start putting him in outfits for fun and (zero) profit
#giving urself a crisis over ripping your own heart out? simply dont feel sad!#go to a fancy ball with all the friends you definitely dont have!#bury all of your feelings forever!#distract yourself from the urge to curl up and cry into a pillow via putting on your best worst bat in a fancy outfit cosplay#specifically to impress another way older actual bat (that may or may not be an ex god)#that doesn't care about you and doesn't reciprocate your attraction in the slightest#simply stop thinking about it. stop thinking about everything. be a bat. be the bestest bat in the whole wide world.#this has been great and totally healthy life advice with the scoundrel <3#yin art#legally FL but if i put this in the main tag i might actually die <- is shy#anyway ponytail scoundrel is unfairly cute. must the gradient on their hair 'make sense' and 'follow logic'?#is it not enough to simply be a little bat with zero thoughts in its head and a winning little :3 smile?#he puts a little gold drapery in his hair bc he thinks it helps hide the fact that the horns arent a head adornment and are in fact#Very Much Real. and Growing.#it hides literally nothing. he thinks he's so subtle. everyone knows you're a furry buddy it's okay you can stop being smug about it#fallen london

Lady Bone Demon: "A reminder: it seems you can not be trusted to willingly follow the path of destiny. But know this: If you betray me again—one misstep, one failure in any way—I will erase the very memory of you."
(3x04 The Winning Side)
-
Tang: "You're wrong. I know I'm not a strong as they are. I may still be searching for my purpose—but what I do know, is that doing it alone is not the path I'm destined to take. Deep in my heart, I know my place is alongside my friends."
(3x08 Benched)
-
Lady Bone Demon: "I sent you a task—you were to retrieve the Monkie King and his protégé, yet you refused the path of destiny and so there will be pain."
(3x08 Benched)
-
Tang: "STOP! It was me! I mean, yeah, Macaque forced me to do it and I am definitely starting to have second thoughts on the whole thing now but- I don't know how and I don't know why, I just felt like I had to. Like it was...destiny!" Lady Bone Demon Voice Over: "Destiny can not be undone Sun Wukong."

-
Purpose, Pain, and the Path of Destiny
#originally this started as like ''huh Tang said the thing LBD said'' and then it turned into a 3 way thing between Tang LBD and MK#Like 2 sides of the destiny coin and the guy who undoes/changes destiny#''Destiny has found you'' ''You will always find your way back to one another!''#I FEEL FUCKING CRAZY#THE JOURNEY. THE PATH THERE. FINDING THE SCRIPTURES. YOUR FRIENDS. YOUR PURPOSE. DESTINY. IDK#lmk really was like ''Everyone's destiny is pain. Cope with that fact'' and I've been losing my mind for a year#Like whatever#''No matter what I do it's going to lead to pain''#LIKE THAT'S. THE PATH OF DESTINY (''path of self-destruction''). Okay. Okay#Not even that relevant to the post I'm just in so deep rn#''All doomed to play a role in tearing this world apart'' and then s5 being the world literally tearing itself apart. Like jesus#They really just wanted to completely decimate MK's little positive growth from the special like. Immediately.#''At least we fixed something for a change- instead of destroying it'' AND THEN THEY DIDN'T FIX ANYTHING#WHICH I'VE BEEN SAYING WAS HOW IT WOULD GO FOR A WHILE. BUT ON GOD TO BE PROVEN SO RIGHT#You know I hope Mei also has a terrible time next season I really feel like she was going through it in s4. But like subtly#Not MK's monkie mental breakdown way#*cough* tag rant over#lmk#lego monkie kid#lmk parallels#lmk Tang#lmk LBD#lmk MK#lmk theme: destiny#to pain

i think its weird that i have to make this disclaimer but the internet is crazy so wtvr,, anyway,,
if i say i dont like something, that doesnt mean "that thing is bad and nobody should post it.."
i swear literally every time i even mention that i dislike something, people will go "wow does that mean u fucking hate me cuz i post that thing? ur a fucking stupid bitch and all ur opinions r wrong" LIKE ?? er.. no. just because i say i dont like certain characterizations of certain characters (the saiki k fandom is CRAZY about this cuz i can state an opinion on literally any character and a group of people will still go 'well only we're allowed to post our opinions about them because we're always right!1!1!'), or certain ship tropes (mentioned my hatred of toxic yaoi maybe once or twice on here months ago and people STILL get mad at me as if i said toxic yaoi lovers r evil or something), or certain ships, or WHATEVER, does not mean that i HATE the people who are posting them or that i think they shouldnt post them at all, NO, im just posting about my personal tastes on my personal blog and it would be extremely weird and hypocritical if i decided that i was the ONLY person that was allowed to do that,,
i think the only reason people assume that is because there are a lot of other people on here who ARE like that, and a lot of people toe the line between posting that they dont like something and posting that they think everyone who likes that thing is stupid, annoying, and wrong,, so i guess all i can say is, sorry for whatever made you make these assumptions but they arent true about me so plz leave me alone ʘ‿ʘ ur doing the same thing to me that ur accusing me of but i didnt do it in the first place so ur just actively being a dick for no reason
#crazy that the mindset some people on here have is that theyre the only ones allowed to post their opinions#ive repeated this a lot on this blog but i rlly think people forget that the person on the other side of the screen is in fact a person#if ur harassing people and publicly making fun of them then ur just as bad as any real life bully#that shit isnt as funny or harmless as u like to pretend it is#not once have i ever targetted anyone or went on someones blog to harass them over my opinion#yet people think its fine to do the same to me and treat it as if its like. revenge or something#like ? me saying 'i dont like toxic yaoi' is not equivalent to someone going on someone elses page and going 'how tf do u like toxic yaoi'#I DONT CARE !! all ive ever done is sit in my own little bubble and had opinions and that makes people mad#honestly though the people who will publicly talk and post abt it are significantly meaner#and i want to act like im not bothered by it because i know most of them r just angry that someone has a different opinion#and they want all their followers to bandwagon off of them (idk why maybe for validation or whatever-same reasons anyone would bully)#but seriously if u actually do think that something i said was out of line and crossed thise boundaries- just fucking tell me ?#im a person bro. ur solution to disagreeing with me shouldnt be 'lol im gonna post abt this and make everyone harass them'#have a conversation with me dude i dont bite ? if u cant talk to me like a person then just dont fucking say anything wtf#its so cowardly to be like 'well no i didnt wanna say anything to u cuz i didnt wanna be rude.. so instead i publicly made fun of u!'#LIKE WHATTTT STOPPPPP </3333#ok anyway this post wasnt supposed to get THAT serious.#MY POINT IS just be considerate of other people and dont base ur hatred off of assumptions#ur deflecting the blame onto someone else because u dont want to admit that ur just a fucking bully lol#being inconsiderate on here is something ive also been guilty of back when i first joined the fandom and was clueless#but grown ass adults who have been on here way longer r still doing that shit which is crazy#and i cant say anything because they have so much leverage over me and idk if its on purpose or if they dont even realize#ok im putting fandom tags cuz i want people to see this sorry. this is my one post thats actually targetted but its at a lot of people#so if u look at this and think 'hey i do that' pls evaluate urself<3#i mean its also targetted at everyone who does this anonomously so i dont know who it is OKOK IM DONE BYE SORRY HOPE THIS IS UNDERSTANDABLE#watch nobody read this fr#saiki k#tdlosk#the disastrous life of saiki k.#meows post

ALSO you know what i find just absolutely wild? how few people i see talking about patrick zweig. like. maybe im just missing it, but it seems like EVERYONE is talking about art and going on about what a sad puppy dog art is — and that's TRUE that's SO TRUE — but you know who is an even BIGGER sad puppy dog? who is even MORE pathetic and sopping wet? PATRICK FUCKIN ZWEIG PEOPLEEEEE
#give my pathetic abandoned sopping wet rat bisexual some LOVE!!!!!#(no shade at all to art and art lovers i love him and i love yall too)#but ohohoh PATRICK. he is my fave <3#i could talk about him for HOURS#about how he has been abandoned by everyone he ever loved (his parents; tashi; art)#about how he knows hes bisexual but he also still seems kinda repressed about it —#like he makes JOKES about it (id let her fuck me with a racket; the teaching art to jerk off story)#and he plays off the touchy feely-ness with art as just boys being boys its what boy besties do#but he also kind of refuses to be blunt about it —#letting art take the lead answering tashi about what they are; his hesitation whsn swiping through tinder and landing on a guy#he knows what he wants but hes SCARED#its just OUGH SO GOOD HES SUCH A GOOD CHARACTER LOVE HIM#patrick zweig#challengers#challengers spoilers#(<- the post really isnt but my tags kind of are lol)

I'm slowly making my way through a new project- editing the entirety of the album PUNCH by Autoheart to the Life Series.
I was originally planning to post all of the edits in order of the songs on the album, but I instead made the Lent one first and am too excited to keep it in my drafts any longer while I work on the first four songs of the album (especially since we're coming up on finals seasons and the amount of time I'll have to work on these is gonna plummet so fast). So instead, I'll be posting them as I make them and make a masterpost of them all in order at the end.
That being said, I hope you enjoy this! I'm really proud of it and a lot of work went into it.
#life series smp#trafficblr#third life smp#last life smp#double life smp#limited life smp#goodtimeswithscar#grian#desert duo#autoheart/life series project#my edits#my art#everyone has to be so nice to me about the audio desync-ing in some places it does that whenever i export it and i can't fix it </3#i COULD tag this one as ship but im not gonna#i DO mean it like that. but like it's just canon clips it can be read however you so choose#also if youve been following me for a little bit youll know i did part of this edit once before#i did the bridge when the afk session came out#and then that plus cherrifire's crane lives project inspired me to assign the whole album to the series#and i was ORIGNALLY planning to do a project like she did w/ the thumbnails#but i couldnt get myself to actually DO IT and also i did map out an entire animatic to factories at one point.#which. on the topic of that. factories or anniversary will be the next ones#anniversary has been started but not fully mapped out whereas factories has been fully mapped out but not started#we'll see which one catches my eye enough first#but all the songs HAVE been assigned so if nothing else i know the gist of what i'm doing for every song#this will definitely be a multi-month project though since one of these takes me a few days to finish#though finals season approaching also means winter break is approaching so who knows! maybe ill bang all of them out in december#(DO NOT HOLD ME TO THAT OH MY GOD)

I genuinely shipped Kataang for the first season and a half of atlab so know that I say this from a place of love for the potential of the ship, even though I have converted to the Zutara bandwagon forevermore lol.
I think it kinda sucks that the majority of discourse surrounding the anti kataang argument boils down to "it's so toxic he's so immature" and "it shouldn't have been cannon Zutara is so much better," these are genuine criticism of the ship(mostly lol), and that's fine, but that's not what i'm here for(we can ignore the male gazy vibes of Katara's ending in the show for now)
it feels like a missed opportunity to talk about the genuine writing flaws in the show in regards to Aang's character development, and how the way Kataang was handled ended up being detrimental for any kind of narrative satisfaction regarding Aang's conclusion.
like aangs character growth is put on hold and then ignored so that kataang could be endgame, I that's genuinely why atlabs ending fell flat for me.
#atlab#kataang#zutara#dia speaks#new atlab show is out so this has been on the mind lol#there's also the added layer to this that katara's characterization kinda flipflops through season one#they did find their groove for her in season two#but season 3 is rough for everyone's characterization let's be real lol#good luck finding those metas btw#i did not know how to tag lol

I assigned reading homework for the weekend and was hit by this wave of irritation with the implicit lying that goes on where they act like they’ll read the homework but they never actually do and so I called them on it and started teasing them and of course they laughed but then I was like “you know my secret dream is that you go home and you walk in the door and someone wants to do something fun with you or you get a text but you hold up your hand and say ‘no no, I have to read ten pages of Beowulf’ and then you sit down and do it” and they scream-laughed at the idea but I like to think it at least presented it to their minds as a possibility
#I ended up telling 3 of my classes because I thought it was so funny and so did they#But then it was sweet because my seniors (a handful of them at least) were like ‘but we do!!’#and then it just kickstarted this real discussion where I told them honestly that my job would radically change if everyone did the reading#like. It would challenge me so much more we could go so much further#anyway I know that mostly it doesn’t work. it being my passion for it and my desire for them to read#but sometimes I’m like if it could light a couple of fires! or help some kids even think of doing the reading as a real choice they HAVE#i also tell them that it’s a skill like any other and they can get better at it.#idk. So much of my job is also just telling them why they should. why they CAN. why their lives will be better if they do#there’s a senior girl who started listening to the audiobook every night when we were reading Emma and she started taking notes#and she’s started to flourish!!! Like you can tell she enjoys it and she’s so much happier with her time#and you guys I just love to see it so. much.#Anyway sorry for all the text posts it’s Saturday and therefore time for weekly processing#this has been#4 text posts in a row with Maria#teaching tag
