—   𝐌.   | THE SUN SETS EARLIER THESE DAYS, its rays dimming and billowing to a cool warmth by mid - noon. it is in this dimming, billowing warmth where they meet, apartment complex gate sliding open in a smooth and calming frenzy; the woman steps through the gate first, a glance thrown back at who she assumes is a new neighbor; his appearance is taken in, soft spots of his body pinpointed and memorized. you never know when you must be prepared, when there's need for fresh meat.  ❝   oh, are you new in the building ?  ❞ asks she, curiosity lacing her tongue like a barbed wire. she watches him, memorizes the freckle and fat that sits on his face, pads his form; the vampiristic woman imagines braised meat in stew.... new neighbor fois gras....
HE DOES NOT ANSWER AS QUICK AS SHE WOULD LIKE, but her face remains cheerful as they both walk back into the building, him at a considerably slower pace. the woman presses the button lodged into the wall, calls the elevator from its hiding place above.  ❝   are you moved in alone ? ( SILENCE. A SHORT NO. ) well, why don't i have you and ... whoever over for dinner ? i've been cultivating something in my garden, i'd love to show it off.  ❞ silence fills the room. the elevator dings, the silver doors opening with a glide and she steps inside. So ?
the man [ @deluder ] fixes his mouth one way, and then another. as he steps into the elevator, words leave his mouth as a quiet omen, a quieter threat: “ i’ve been cultivating unkindness... ” the woman nods, feels the corners of her mouth turn upwards. the man continues: “ i’ve been cultivating a lot of things — i’m a fertile field, it turns out — but unkindness is the most interesting..”
the elevator halts at the first stop. the woman exits first, then wedges her hand between the closing doors, pries them open with a dazzling grin.
❝   tell your wife to come to dinner. saturday night,  8PM. i'm just down this hall, at the very end. I THINK WE COULD BE GOOD FRIENDS. ❞

i'm a season three loyalist forever (shocking i know) but season two of the silt verses is definitely the strongest in terms of tightly written high-stakes but still intimate weird fiction horror drama that perfectly balances character-driven and plot-driven narrative. so many bangers. hayward's horrible catering job. carpenter's revenge. the sorrow-and-shame. the love saints episode. angel in the echoes. paige's entire arc with her father and her desire to build something better than what came before. the battle for the gulch. the twin mouths reunion, reconciliation, and inevitable betrayal. mercer, gage, and shrue all being introduced and executed to perfection as vehicles of both the multifaceted nature of humanity that the podcast aims to explore and the widening scope of the story, who both expanded on existing themes and introduced new, equally relevant ones. faulkner and mason's power struggles for control of what they see as the greater, all-encompassing narrative, which is itself merely a small story with only a few players in a far larger performance. my god that season had everything. they should showcase it in masterclasses on writing.

2, 6, 11, 12 and 14 for the self insert lore ask game :3
HIII
2. when in canon does your self insert come in? do you have a scene in mind for your entrance?
SO I imagine Erina to come in in between season 2 and 3.. I was posting about it a few nights ago, in the erina timeline she sees the matsus from the background at the highschool reunion and gets inspired to go hunt them down and calculate befriending them. . But that wouldn’t be her first scene that would be revealed later in the erina arc .. the first scene would be strange coincidences of the matsus seeing erina run into them in strange situations and coincidences, and it’s all recollected by the matsus all talking about their pov of the encounter at chibita until erina actually shows up behind them and being giggly abt how silly they are… im trying to adjust the specifics of her intro so it’s WIP ⚠️ 🚧
6. does your self insert have any pets?
Tumblr media
HEHE yes technically @tottychanneru ‘s oc ramirabi is like a pet to her but he is more like a little animal magical creature bff.. he is funny creature… he is her supporter.. her precious friend who phases through the window peacefully when he goes out for the day
And erina also gets a dog later in her and oso’s relationship… based off my own dog Cho Cho <3 I think in the erina verse he would be called Po Po maybe because thats one of my nicknames for him hehe, or Chopi, … and Osomatsu helps get him for her because she was longing for a dog… seeing someone want to give up their little cutie happy dog and erina wanting him so bad but can’t go and meet the owner because she has to work and she’s far away… and Osomatsu surprises her by going on the journey for him… he is a stubborn princely type dog who is very attatched to erina… Osomatsu would get a little competitive with him.. but they ultimately get along because of their love for erina, also they are animals together
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
11. what kind of outfit(s) does your self insert wear?
Tumblr media
Erina is gyaru who kind of experiments with her style, likes agejo a lot but not totally tied down to it, sexy street fashion mixed with a casual cutsey toony flair.. if that makes sense. she loves cutesy patterns and accessories and colors… she usually show tummy and legs , wearing platformers/pumps/chunky shoes rather than too pointy of heels
My friend @/marisivoney on Twitter captures it so well with outfit designs they drew for me for artfight!! Sososooo cuteness
Tumblr media
12. how would the fandom view your character?
Omg.. I feel like maybe she’s the icon of a Marina and the diamonds Spotify playlist , widely kinned bpd girl icon.. my friend said she would be menhara girl character u see on Pinterest… I would love to hear what the erinanistas say.. how would the fandom treat her, think what if she was a dangan ronpa character in 2013, tell me your thoughts
14. what hobbies does your self insert have?
Answered!

First off, big fan of your blog! I read it like a newspaper every day.
What I wanna know is, if the SPN revival ends up happening, what route do you see them taking where they don’t mess with the canon? I think it would’ve worked out fine had Jensen not ret-conned quite a bit with the prequel. Now what? Will TW be considered canon? Is it better to let Sam and Dean rest and just base the revival between 15x19 and 15x20 so the endgame is not impacted? Wanna hear your thoughts specifically.
Also, a lot has happened between SPN’s end and now, and a lot more will happen still before the revival takes place. Speaking in terms of J2 and their friendship and their dynamic, particularly post prequel gate, should we expect to see slight changes in the SamDean dynamic come the revival as well? It can’t possibly be the exact same as how we got used to seeing it s11-s15 with this domestic bliss, we-are-eachother’s-endgame bliss.
Thank you friend.
The Winchesters was retconned to take place in an AU, so it is irrelevant to the main SPN-verse. Think how the Apocalypse World where Sam and Dean were never born has very little impact on the main SPN-verse. There is a pair of AU Sam and Dean running around in Brazil but again, no impact in the main SPN-verse.  So while TW is canon, it is entirely separate from our SPN.
Jared seem to like the idea that 5 years passed between 15x19 and 15x20 so I think there is a fair chance the revival could take place during those 5 years, Since Jared actually looks younger now than he did in season 15, then it can work.  (Sidenote: Jared started out looking normal in season 15 but midway through he trained for the marathon and gave himself the gaunt "runner face" that significantly aged him in appearance.)
 With Jack remaking heaven and keeping the angels away from earth and Rowena keeping demons away from the Winchesters, the brothers’ hunts return to the simpler days of monster hunting and explore new urban myths.
During these so-called simple monster hunts, Sam and Dean could go deeper into dealing their personal issues, which will draw them even closer leading up to the fateful Barn Scene day. Among the drama I would like to see closure to unresolved arcs, like what happened to Sam power?   Where are all the demons that Dean made during his apprenticeship as hell’s torturer?   Belphagore opened up that opportunity in season 15, which we also saw clues that not all demons are going to follow Rowena. Then we can have queen Rowena seeking help from the Winchesters to wrangle wayward demons either back into hell or into the Empty.
I expect we will still see the same Sam and Dean dynamic. First, based on the first and second convention after the prequel mess, the J2 magic was still there. Think of the times you haven't seen friends or family members for years and as soon as you re-connect, you immediately fell back into the old dynamics out of habit. Second, Hollywood is like an endless high school.  You may not have liked your high school but you find yourself going to every reunion because nobody else in the world know what you’ve experienced other than your classmates even if you hated them back in the day.  Many deep and casual relationships are based on shared experiences rather than actual compatibility.

10. Love love LOVE fics where Yu Ziyuan gets her way and Wei Wuxian is removed from the Jiang Sect, only for Yu Ziyuan to run the Jiang right into the dirt while the whole world sings the praises of Wei Wuxian, who can now reach his true potential without having to scrape and knowtow to Yu Ziyuan's temper.

11. I don't mind Best Jiujiu Jiang Cheng, but it's starting to bug me that everybody seems to forget it's not canon (CQL notwithstanding ig) so I'm asking for post-canon fics that acknowledge Wei Wuxian as Jin Ling's actual favorite uncle. It doesn't need to be Jiang Cheng bashing or anything like that really, I just want Jin Ling and Wei Wuxian feels and bonding that are NOT Yunmeng Bro reconciliation or focused on Jiang Cheng. I won't say NO to some Jiang Cheng bashing, but I'd prefer the focus be on Jin Ling and his ACTUAL Best Jiujiu Wei Wuxian.

Or maybe jl grows up with it and adores it cause there isn't a wwx stigms attached and like it saves his life many times, people constantly saying whoever gave it to him must of really loved him. And then he finds out the truth
a symbol to remind you that there’s more to see by paperminds (T, 9k, JL & WWX, JC & WWX, JL & JC, post-canon, canon typical violence, hurt/comfort, angst w happy ending, JC & WWX reconciliation) this one (from 2 itmfs back) is 'similar' the  other way, jin ling grows up thinking his mom commissioned the bracelet. for #15, i think i've never read a fic with jin zixun specifically stealing jin ling's gift, so i hope op gets recs, but otherwise it might be a cool prompt for the kinkmeme!sadly i cant find the 'similar' fic i want to rec lol 🤦‍♀️ its the one with ghost rogue wwx who was (spoiler) killed due to jin negligence in a nighthunt iirc, and jin zixun steal all his notes and passes them off as his own. wx have a different first meeting and lwj investigates wwx's death.
asymptotic by chinxe (T, 26k, WangXian, Canon Divergence, Angst with a Happy Ending, Slow Burn, Misunderstandings, Pining) The fic the previous reccer for 15 is looking for is Asymptotic!
~*~
16. ITMF fics with protective LXC. Maybe he goes against JGY because he dares to hurt LWJ and that's where he crosses the line. But I mainly want protective LXC over his brother (and maybe a bit dark?)
A Little Fall of Rain by Just_a_Girl_in_a_Crystal (T, 47k, wangxian, LXC & LWJ, canon divergence, fix-it , Angst w happy ending, Canon-Typical Violence, Canon Temporary Character Death, Not Everyone Dies au, Grief/Mourning, Lan Wangji’s awesome family, Golden Core Reveal, Protective LXC, Protective LQR, WIP) ooh idk fics where lxc actively opposes jiggy/discovers his actions, but for now, i have these for 16. protective lxc starts to mistrust ppl who aren't lwj

hello ~ about your series asymmetrical warfare will there be a bruce-jason reunion? what was their dynamic before jason died? does bruce treat jason as his greatest failure the way he did in comics? (ignore if spoilers ofc) thanks!
Hi anon, thanks for your ask! Great questions (really respect that you went for the meaty one right out of the gate there /pos). Let me start out by not answering your questions at all, and I’ll work my way up to some answers.
I’ve mentioned in other posts that I don’t have a concrete outline in place when I write. There are things that I know will happen in Asymmetrical Warfare, and things that I know absolutely will not. In between all of that, there’s wiggle room, a lot of wiggle room. Something that I love about writing fanfiction is that, to me, it’s this neat form of collaborative story telling. At it’s core, AW is my version of the batfam and the story I want to tell about them, but it’s very much influenced by readers and the fandom at large (mostly via its tumblr presence). Comments on ao3, asks on tumblr, random internet convos, the comics I read, all of it influences how I think about AW. (For example, Harm Reduction basically exists solely in response to ao3 comments.) It brings a complexity and richness to AW that wouldn’t be there if I was alone in a vacuum writing the ‘verse from start to finish.
So, how does that relate to your questions…
will there be a bruce-jason reunion?
I honestly don’t know. Most of AW has the ‘identity porn’ tag attached to it. The ‘identity reveal’ tag doesn’t start coming in to play until the end of what I have sketched out so far. When I think about what comes after that, it’s all fade to black. I can make an educated guess based on core character traits, what’s happened so far, and the fixed events/timepoints I know are coming. But, it’s still open to infinite possibilities. At least until the timeline advances further and more details get locked down. The Storm, the arc that comes after Territorial Disputes (the companion piece to Guerrilla Tactics), is a pretty big inflection point. It’s also, you know, not written yet. 😉
what was their dynamic before jason died?
The granular details here are still evolving in my mind, but it’s built on a backbone of a mixed pre- and post- crisis Bruce and Jason. Jason was adopted at 12. They had a father/son dynamic. Bruce was genuinely trying to be a good dad, and he succeeded a lot of the time. Things got rough later on in Jason’s teenage years.
does bruce treat jason as his greatest failure the way he did in comics?
I’m not sure if you’re referring to how Bruce treated Jason’s memory during the period while Jason was presumed dead in the comics, or how Jason is actually treated post his reappearance in the comics, but here’s what I’ll say with respect to the former and AW. The AW Batcave has a Robin memorial with a ‘good solider’ plaque on it. AW Tim is well versed in the dangers of being reckless via the object lesson that is Jason Todd. Sometimes, late at night, usually after a bottle of whiskey or a dose of the good painkillers, AW Bruce thinks about how his greatest failure in life is actually how he’s chosen to cope with the death of his son.
Thanks again for the ask, anon! Hopefully this was as interesting to read as it was for me to write! My ask box is always open 🩵

kai's post-canon verse. so this verse operates under the assumption that canon happens as we know it up until nagant frees chisaki. he armless, ambitionless, hassaikailess. you get the idea. however, the kai that we see in canon with nagant is not the one you'll see written on this blog- and i have a theory as to why he was written that way:
i imagine that horikoshi went a little too hard/too dark on overhaul and this mini-arc (and his end of canon shot) of his was a way to knock him down to a sniveling, pathetic shell of who he was to sort of ease the readers. it's hori going, "dw guys!! the bad guy's pathetic now!" type of thing.
there's no really no chance of kai getting "redemption", either. if he was to get recaptured, it'd be straight back to tartarus for him. there's no big victimization he was a part of, no super sad backstory. kai is a villain who is just bad to be bad - unlike toya, or even tenko. and as such, i tried to make his post-canon verse reflect that.
when this kai is freed by nagant, he does go with her to point out izuku, repaying his debt for her freeing him. once that contract is ended, chisaki leaves the scene, and nagant, deku, and co have their little reunion without him.*
* i am cooking up a separate verse with isa where nagant and kai stay together, rather than nagant getting recaptured.
he's on his own and seeks to reconnect/rebuild the hassaikai. he starts by finding hari, finding those who still have some loyalty to pops/to the hassaikai as a whole, and building from there. the entire operation comes from a place of humility and hard work. kai has prosthetics (with claws)*, is quirkless, and now has to use his skill and leadership to rebuild what he, himself, tore down. he returns to more a more old school yakuza way of thinking, and through his new humility and regaining some sense of humanity, the shie hassaikai is eventually rebuilt under him. this verse will likely be written/interacted with during a time where the hassaikai is known to be coming back under him, but isn't quite to its former glory.
* also, hilariously, overfeet is not completely off the table in this verse. however, to first discover that overhaul is stored in the feet, then to practice enough to get back to the level to fuse himself with new arms, and THEN to actually do so takes quite a bit of time. unless stated, kai will be written with high tech prosthetics.

What do you like about Killua and Gon as characters and what don't you like/make you sad? What kind of development could there be for both of them? Songs that are associated with them ( Togashi has his own lmao playlist) ? Who will be taller in height ?
anon they make me insane :'D What i love about them is what makes me very sad too hdkfjdkfj i think a lot about how they are both very much willing to die for each other, i still can't believe that's canon and it happened
I don't know if I want them to show up again in the manga as its ongoing right now, I feel like they're safe doing their own thing until they have to appear again (and Killua is more likely gonna show up again first because the story might tie back to Nanika because she originated from the dark continent). As for what kind of development I hope to see for them...maybe a reunion for them where they both come to terms with what happened during the chimera ant arc. lots of things could happen! lots of them have already been written in fics (and my god, the fics are so good. this is what you get for shipping a popular ship in an old fandom: years and years of gems to read at your own time. I love it here)
One song I associate with both of them is the entire 3 part song of the Lightning Strike by Snow Patrol, I drew fanart of some verses from the first part, but a whole 3 part story is in my head when I listen to it....from a dream that Gon has of seeing Killua shrouded in lightning, to a memory Killua has of following Gon back to whale island for the first time, to an eventual reunion when they grow older :') I will....revisit this idea someday i swear
but anyway these lyrics?
And in the middle of the flood, I felt my worth When you held onto me like I was your little life raft Please know that you were mine as well
...they make me go apeshit!!!!! this is 100% how i view killugon's dynamic. this 14min song is very self indulgent. i hope you too have a song that you associate with killugon that is highly self indulgent and makes you scream
Also hands down I think killua's gonna be taller. all I do is look at silva and ging! even if we consider gon-san's height, i still think killua's gonna be a smidge taller as they age.

Welcome
I’m The AU Collector, call me Collector. You can find me under the same name on AO3. Here you’ll find my own AUs, my original world, and lots of reblogs. I’m mainly in the Linked Universe and Kingdom Hearts fandoms, but you’ll also see me stray into others like Tales of the Abyss, Lockwood & Co, Batfam, etc. I call pretty much all of my works AUs, so even if it’s a fic, I’ll call it AU for simplicity’s sake.
I have a lot of AUs so I thought I would break them down below for people wondering what they are. Also feel free to ask me about any of them. I’d love to ramble about them!
Linked Universe
Relinked AU: 23 years after Linked Universe, the Links’ kids are kidnapped, forcing the Links on another time-traveling adventure to save them. Meanwhile, the kids go on their own adventure to get home.
Reconnect the Chain AU: AU of Relinked. Taking place 10 years after Linked Universe, the Chain reconnects themselves. It’s my happy, slice-of-lifey version of Relinked. Most drawings or writing I do with the Relinked kids as kids will be tagged as both RtC and Relinked if it’s pre-reunion.
Radio AU: Modern College AU. The Chain are all somehow affiliated with the college radio station at Kakariko University. Hyrule’s a new student who gets dragged into their chaos, and learns a little bit about himself in the process.
Cupcakes for Harmony: Inspired by Their Melody. I looked at Their Melody and said “what if I made it sadder?”
Adventures of Uncle Alfon: Legend’s Uncle has some things to say. A non-linear, slice-of-life fic focusing on Uncle Alfon and his relationship with Legend.
Epic AU: Ongoing brainstorming. Epic: The Musical has inspired a plot in my head but idk what’s happening with it yet. All I really know is it’s another LU Links Reunite fic, plus some.
Second Chain/Ultimate Chain AU: Alternate versions of the same AU. I add some more heroes into the mix! Features The Hero of the Kingdom (TOTK), The Hero of Ages (Age of Calamity), The First Hero (Skyward Sword Manga), The Shadow of the Hero (Four Swords Adventures), The (younger) Hero of Legend (A Link To The Past), and The Hero of the Minish (Minish Cap). Potentially, I may even add the Ancient Hero (Tears of the Kingdom).
Kingdom Hearts
Those Who Have Been Wronged Series: A multi-book series currently in the works. It’s canon-compliant up until the secret ending of KH3. Follows the Foretellers’ arc with Kairi as the main protagonist as she searches for Sora and works to defeat the Master of Masters alongside Ven, Namine, Vanitas, and Lauriam. It does include all the KH characters, and almost everyone gets their own time to shine, but Kairi and co. (The Reflection Crew) is the main group.
Together AU: KH3 onwards AU where everything is wrapped up during KH3. The Union Leaders are here. Eraqus is back. Everyone is (mostly) happy. A soft, slice-of-life series I write when the Wronged Series is getting to overwhelming.
Miscellaneous AUs: Occassionally a KH AU will pop into my head. These aren’t very serious works, just fun ideas.
Tales of the Abyss:
Fire Rises: Mostly vibes at this point, Fire Rises will focus on a cast of 6-7 Unscored (people born outside of the Score) trying to make their lives in a world that still holds onto their hatred for them. Takes place 5-ish years after Tales of the Abyss.
OG-Verse:
The OG-verse is my original world called Auran which shares a good portion of worldbuilding as the Wronged Series and Together AU. It’s where all my KH OCs have gone to live. I have a lot of worldbuilding for this but not a lot of story at the moment.

I’ve been cobbling together a playlist for the Daughters-verse, and so far I’ve finished the Daemon’s Handbook portion. I treated it like I was assembling a movie soundtrack. See below for the author’s rambling explanation of why she chose each song (yes, including some Disney).
Tumblr media
Stay Frosty Royal Milk Tea: Daemon’s emo boy anthem at the beginning of the fic. (See lyrics: “some princes don’t become kings.”)
You’re Welcome: If this fic was a Disney movie, Daemon would be singing this song when he’s first introduced to his future stepdaughters (while the Targbros eavesdrop in the background because they’re still under the delusion Daemon is cool).
Secret Melody: Nice, sweeping instrumentals for Daemon’s temporarily idyllic life on Dragonstone.
Mother Knows Best: Replace “mother” with “step-kepa” and this is basically Daemon’s entire anti-Targtower lecture to the girls in the first half of the fic. Dragonstone = Rapunzel’s tower.
Message In A Bottle: All the girls and boys sending ravens to each other.
Yakety Sax: The ultimate chase theme music for when Daemon keeps trying to catch Lucera during her escape attempts.
Natural: When Daemon does the mean thing with Luce and Aemond’s letters.
Rude: THE theme song for this whole fic, but it culminates during Jace and Aegon’s elopement. The entire song is about marrying someone’s daughter even though the dad doesn’t like it. It’s perfect and I won’t hear any arguments.
Royalty: When all the adults clash in Chapter 6 about whether to annul the elopement…
O mio babbino caro: …and then Jace swoops in with the winning hand by pulling on Viserys’s heartstrings! (This song is from an opera and it’s about a girl begging her dad to let her marry her love.)
Dance of Dragons: For the scene where Aegon asks to go to the Stepstones, then Aemond follows him. If I was filming this (I know nothing about filming), young!Aegon and young!Aemond would be saying goodbye to Jace, Alicent, etc. at 2:15, then they’d hop on their dragons and disappear into the clouds, then at 2:33 their dragons explode back out of the clouds and suddenly it’s adult!Aegon and adult!Aemond post-time skip flying to Dragonstone. Or something like that idk.
Wild Heart: Sweet little instrumental for the reunions in Chapter 7.
Don’t You Worry Child: For whenever Daemon and Baela have a conversation/scene together. AKA Daemon’s emotional growth theme music.
Flight of the Silverbird: Instrumental when all of the Targaryen dragons are flying above King’s Landing at the end of Chapter 7.
The Tournament: For the wedding tourney, especially Baela’s mystery knight moment.
Slipping Through My Fingers: Mostly for Rhaenyra’s emotions during the wedding preparations in Chapter 8, but Daemon gets to have some of the feels too.
House Velaryon: Wedding parade scene.
La Coronación: A grand and classic-sounding instrumental for the wedding scene.
Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This): Daemon’s fever dream from when he gets wasted at the wedding feast to when he suddenly remembers his blacked-out memories about Luce and Aemond in Chapter 9.
7 Years: Daemon’s big blow-out with Rhaena and then Luce in Chapter 10, and remorse for his actions hits him really hard. (See lyrics: “only those I really love will ever really know me,” and also “soon I’ll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold? Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?”)
Wasting My Young Years: Daemon is feeling really sorry for himself near the end of Chapter 10 while he hangs out with Joff. Also he feels old.
Daemon and Rhaenyra: For their heart-to-heart at the end when they talk about the kind of world they want to leave for their children.
Good Riddance (Time of Your Life): Daemon’s last big decision in this fic: let Lucera think Aemond set the trap, or find out the truth? He chooses the latter, and that leads to the fic’s happy ending, his mending relationship with the girls, and the culmination of his character arc. Daemon in Chapter 1 would never have made that choice, but that’s why we have emotional growth in stories.
Heroes (We Could Be): End credits music, because Daemon has redeemed himself.

@dynamoprotocol sent: 💋 How kissable is ‘Rissa, Rick? How smoochable is your muse? || Accepting !
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A smirk opens on Rick's face at the question. Oh, he could say so many thing about how kissable Clarissa is, and some of them are definitely not meant for everyone's ears. He'll keep those for later, when they meet up for a few rounds of drinking...and, if he can have it his way, a few rounds in the sheets too.
"She's a fuckin' solid 10. N-No fuckin' doubt there. I-I mean, have you seen her? A-All that fire and rough charm? Ho-How the fuck can you look at her an-and not want to get a taste of that? S-She's a damn good kisser too. An-And this is the opinion of a guy w-who has slept his way through the multiverse."
And then there's the electricity, the hint of static that always linger on her skin. The little shocks that bite his lips every time they touch her flesh. It's fascinating and exciting and he can never get enough.
Damn, he's a lucky guy, isn't he?
----
Tumblr media
Rick's brows knit together in annoyance at the question and lips curl into a scowl. The irritation, however, is just a little part of what he's feeling. He hates it, but he can't help all the emotions that cluster in his chest whenever he hears her name or sees her. There's too much history between them, too many loose ends, too much hurt.
He wishes that their reunion hadn't happened at all.
He keeps catching himself staging excuses to see her again.
"Eh, s-she's attractive, I guess. T-Ten years an-and she looks almost the same, s-so...I guess time is treating her well or shit." A shrug that comes off too stiff to be casual. "S-She still has her charm, e-even if she's more of a bitch than what I remembered."
Or maybe she isn't, not in general, but he keeps bringing out her worst sides.
"I-I'd say...7? M-Maybe 8, depending on how much s-she has busted my balls."
He brings his flask to his lips and takes a long gulp. He remembers what kissing her was like. He remembers being almost addicted to the rushes of adrenaline he got from it. And the intense look in those bright blue eyes after the most frantic kisses...
"...W-Whatever."

i think taylor writes songs like ittg & thank you aimee, knowing karlie will eventually be called the muse in some way so she also throws in lines that could be both about her and the real subject of the song, this just came to mind listening to thank you aimee because the line "your kid comes home singing a song that only us two know is about you" would be very karlie coded in any other song, & going along with this, youve probably seen other people explain in full why the "crook" in ittg could definitely be karlie in the same sense as "if i'm a thief, he can join the heist" "us traitors never win" etc etc. i hope this makes sense it kind of sounds like i'm saying karlie is also the subject of thank you aimee in a negative sense but i'm just talking about one-liner lyrics mostly
so i do think that part of the mainline narrative of their story (what is put out there to be believed by the average fan) is that there was a falling out between taylor and karlie, and while taylor felt betrayed by this or that, it was a misunderstanding, and taylor has recognized that over time. ittg fits this nicely. or rather, i developed my way of thinking of things like this because of ittg, and what its intention may have been.
one thing i have been mulling over personally is that a lot of the end of this arc fit well with the release of midnights and tracks like anti hero and the great war, and it could have culminated with karlie going to eras, so the timing of the release of thank you aimee sort of doesn’t fit that arc, future reunion timeline wise. now the back half of 2023 might not have gone at the scheduled pace and they may have adapted so there could be some variance to what is going on, but in general, i tend to think from a mainline narrative perspective that TTPD as an album that exists post-some sort of theoretical reconciliation with karlie, and taylor penning thank you aimee at karlie wouldn’t fit with this narrative.
i think taylor releasing the single and changing the secret message caps to YE furthers the idea that it’s a song directed at kimye. plus, their kids have presently and notably expressed their love of taylor through their social media accounts, which fits the narrative of the song.
it all comes out in the wash though and for the time being people can go on and attribute it to karlie if they want, like they always do, until one day the switch is flipped and things change, but i’m not positive it was the original intention.
on a separate note, here are some posts from my blog about the use of the crook imagery in her work and how it relates to taylor and karlie ☺️

Good morning everyone; admin here to discuss that has been bugging me for the past week or so. It involves Razer and Aya’s return in tomorrow-verse’s Crisis on Infinite Earths 3. I gotta say, I was majorly disappointed. Don’t get me wrong I’m glad to see them back together again like Peter & MJ in X-men 97. But I don’t think they did enough with those characters.
First off, they should’ve had a much bigger role than established considering Aya was an anti-monitor during the tail-end of the series. I mean c’mon; the parallel was right there! Not only that, they could’ve included Hal and Killowog from that universe as well. Have like some sort of big reunion between the 4 of them. Maybe, even include Carol Ferris. Because let’s be honest, that version of her kicked ass.
Speaking of which, maybe we could’ve seen this version of Carol finally utilizing her ring’s full potential and honor Ghia’ta’s memory. Make it into some kind of arc that carries over from their universe.
Whilst we’re on the subject of arcs; you could have tomorrow-verse Green Arrow team up with Hal to redeem himself from killing his own world’s variant. Then show the two bond as friends with Black Canary overseeing it from the sidelines.
There’s plenty more I could discuss that would majorly improve COIE 3, but I’ll save all that for the notes I’m going to post here later tonight. It should give a clear, concise idea of how this whole movie should’ve been.

SEPARATE WAYS SONG - ANALYSIS
I just can't believe how well chosen this song was for season 4. And it really fits with Byler's arc this season (also with Lumax and Jopper's arcs)
Tumblr media
This first strophe fits with the situation in which the characters are in at the end of s4
Hearts broken, sleepless nights. Pay special attention to who are their reaching for, now that they're losing ground. (The UD is consuming the -normal- dimension)
Lucas reaches for Max and, Mike reaches for Will, now knowing that he's still connected to 001.
Tumblr media
Feeling that it's gone could change your mind.
At first, they all thought that 001 was finally dead, except for Will (and probably El). Mike was the first person that had been told about this, and he's willing to kill 001 more than ever.
Tumblr media
The chorus in this remix is just a piece of art.
Someday love will find you, break those chains that bind you.
Oh, that hits hard. By one side, we have Hopper, who is literally chained in another continent. Max is bounded by her traumas and Mike/Will are bounded by their own fears and homophobia.
One night will remind you how we touched and went our separate ways.
In season 3, when everything seemed to be already figured out between Mike and Will, it was too late, because now they were going to be separated.
- same situation with Jopper, when they finally arranged a date, hopper "died".
Tumblr media
Time passed and nothing got better. They were in troubled times.
Mike and Will's reunion was, at first, not positive at all, they were jealous, hurt and confused.
They even seemed to be distant when all they really wanted was to be closer to each other.
- Max was also distant, her eyes were literally distant.
Tumblr media
You'll never walk alone, that phrase is enough to understand the context of the whole strophe and the ending of season 4. They're united.
Tumblr media
Then, we have the chorus again, but this time, -you know I still love you.- Many things happened between them and between the chaos, but they never stopped loving each other. Even when they've been separated for a long time.
I'd like to add that the only part of Journey's original song that was not included in this remix are these two verses, because I find it pretty interesting.
If he ever hurts you, in the original song, it talks about the man that the person who the song is dedicated to is dating. But, in the series, he has a deeper meaning.
True love wont desert you. Curious... because a certain true love act didn't work.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Music selection IS important and IS meaningful. It's not just a nice sounding song.
Tumblr media
