Unexpectancy of circumstances was a occuring theme within those who wield the insignia of Fairy Tail, with several times having the inclusion of wizards from different Guilds. This time was no exception, as the presence of Kagura Mikazuchi was an aleviating sight to behold. An ally, a reminiscence from the past --- once served as a fearsome opponent. And in regardance of such, mutual respect was established.

❛ Then I would gladly get a dozen of those powdered doughnuts. ❜
She professed her desire as she allowed the male's words to echo her ears, accumulating their content. Acts out of philanthropy were constantly welcomed and highly encouraged, as she considered such actions pivotal of a mage's growth and amelioration as a human. Her childhood wasn't prosperous by any means, but she would gladly help those who need to experience a better one than hers.
❛ I see. Then I will gladly participate in those activities. I will even ask my comrades to come and assist. The more participants, the better, right? ❜
❛ In my Guild we tend to host charities here and there, so we are no strangers to situations like this. So, I would love to help. ❜
"there is no rush, the bake sale is for a few more hours. But some of the children would get upset stomachs , but you are free to do so."
A conundrum, though the children were not lacking when it comes to funds, it was the bare minumun and they needed more. so a excess of food would upset them entirely, if only they would be sick to their stomachs later on. but a rush of happiness sometimes would be best.
"I recommend the plain donuts with powdered sugar, easy to hold and eat. Or the chocolate cake."
"We also have more activities to help with raising funds for the orphanage in the coming months. if you come back, perhaps you can help with some since there is a tournament of mages to helping raise with funds."
"the winner gets a statue of them built that will last for one month in center square."

❛ Oh? Is that a challenge? ❜
THE SCARCENESS OF THE CIRCUMSTANCE stood on a high scale. To have none other but Freed Justine proposing a swordsmanship challenge struck her like a bolt from the blue; yet, it was welcoming. Refusal was out of question. Besides, she couldn’t recall the last time she faced the leader of the Raijinshuu in a match of this caliber. Talk about graced with rarity. Therefore, lips would take an oblique curvature unveiling a sufficient amount of confidence and even braggadocio. Of course, acceptance was obvious and about to be vocalized.
❛ Very well. I would gladly accept. After all, I am very curious to see your exceptional skills. So,
you’d better give me your best shot. ❜

okay I have to do this today because even I wouldn’t do it after the godforsaken finale airs, and it’s basically my specialty and I did spend like an hour thinking about it last night while washing dishes. Definitely partly inspired by @words-writ-in-starlight‘s insightful post on everything Supernatural did wrong, and apologies in advance to all the characters for dragging them into anything related to Christian mythology:
Wei Wuxian’s parents die in a house fire when he’s 6(? I refuse to look anything up) months old
Jiangs are a hunter family I guess? That whole disaster of a family dynamic, except WWX dips out at some point to be idk an environmental activist bc at the time, that seems like the larger threat to the whole world. “Mom and Dad went on a hunting trip and they haven’t come back”, “bitch” “jerk”, 2 brothers in a beat-up old car, you know the drill
Jins are also an old hunting family, but more Men of Letters energy - they have a fancy bunker and do research and avoid getting their actual hands dirty. Jiang Yanli ducked out of the active hunting life a few years ago to be happily married to her peacock and settled down with a baby and she’s fine. We’re not going to bother Yanli. She’s safe and happy and doesn’t need to involved in any of this
so, WWX is the demon blood child developing exciting new abilities like telekinesis, mind control, exorcising demons by sheer force of will...etc, and Jiang Cheng is the Righteous Man. Lucifer, Michael, etc.
s1-3 probably proceeds more or less as spn canon...which I more or less remember...by the time they find their parents at the end of s1, Jiang Fengmian is...ugh, we probably shouldn’t kill him offscreen, I mean, we should probably meet him before he dies. I guess. Madam Yu lasts longer because I’m way more interested in her. But we do know that both Jiang parents are totally inclined to fling the boys into a metaphorical or literal escape boat and go hold the line for as long as possible, so...that’s spn energy...
Xue Yang is the one who’s like “fuck yeah, demon powers” and opens the gates of Hell, because I want him to have nice* things
*nice for Xue Yang
from characterization rather than memory, I’m 90% sure that Dean tried to hide his crossroads deal from Sam, but Jiang Cheng does it...better. I think it does come out, though. Right before the hellhounds do.
here’s where it starts to go farther off from spn canon. Jiang Cheng crawls his way out of the grave, gets stalked by a menacing presence that explodes windows for an episode, incidentally can’t find WWX...*Lan Wangji voice* “I’m the one who gripped you tight and raised you from Perdition” (a baller line then and a baller line now)...and then the next episode starts with them all awkwardly standing around, and JC is like, “ok well let’s go find my brother then”, and you think there’s going to be an mdzs-riffing JC+LWJ Roadtrip To Find WWX...and they’re immediately attacked by like a dozen demons
in fact, the first time we see WWX in s4 is here, wherein he goes toe to toe with an angel and...holds his own. that’s new and terrifying! also is leading a squad of demons??
because here’s the thing: for the last 3(?) months, there’s been war in hell
because unlike Some People Mooses, upon finding out that his brother’s soul was legally nearly-owned by a crossroads demon, heir-apparent-to-Satan!WWX went, “actually fuck that” and kicked open the door of Hell (metaphorically, not loosing any demons this time) and was like, “who do I have to beat the shit out of to get a specific crossroads contract around here”
this did not work, obv. He didn’t know until it was too late, Lilith had already snapped up the contract, etc. etc.
obviously he also tried to offer himself instead, and got rejected for some reason
Since Jiang Cheng died, however, there’s been a war for control of Hell. Leading one side, Lilith, the Original Babe, who wants to break all 666(?) seals keeping Lucifer bound and in the meantime, break the Righteous Man so Heaven won’t even have Michael’s destined host ready for the Final Battle. Leading the other side, Wei Wuxian, infamous upstart, who wants to rescue the Righteous Man and restore him to life, tear Lilith’s guts out through her nose, and also stop her from doing the Lucifer thing because Wen Qing explained that yes, that’s a Thing, and it’s Bad.
Wen Qing! I’ve decided to combine Bela and Ruby’s roles and let WQ be both the cool badass example of how demon deals can go Bad and the demon deliberately leading our heroes astray for most of s3-4. Wen Qing is a very new demon; she used to be some sort of herbalist/witch but then she sold her soul in a crossroads deal to cure her brother of some lingering illness. 10 years of happiness and then boom, hellhounds. WQ is so obviously competent, though, that they (Lilith, I guess?) immediately offers her a job, with the promise threat that gee, that’s a nice brother you’ve got there, even with his Designated Chronic Health Condition getting all relapse-y. It’d be such a shame if something were to...happen to him...
we find this out at some point in last s3 I guess? some Monster of the Week case involves WN as a witness or something, or possible next victim, and WQ shows up to be A Normal Amount Of Invested In This, while desperately trying to avoid actually interacting with her brother (who thinks she’s dead). YES, the truth comes out; YES there’s a tearful reunion
now in s4, Wen Ning is fine actually, health-wise, bc he maybe made a crossroads deal with Wei Wuxian personally, and Wen Qing may or may not have admitted that she’s supposed to be working for Lilith to get WWX ready to host Lucifer? Or potentially that comes out later, idk. Either way, she’s 100% his top lieutenant in this exciting Hell War they’re waging
[insert whatever the hell (ha) happened plot-wise in s4 of supernatural]
we obviously mix up the relationships, too, bc it’s like, *LWJ internal monologue* I’m too young to remember my brother Lucifer as he was before he Fell, but surely Wei Wuxian is his Heir and Destined Vessel in truth, for he is Charismatic and Charming and Makes Me Feel Things, with his Clearly Feigned Righteous Drive and Compassion for All God’s Creatures and - why does heat keep pooling in the lower abdomen of my vessel when I look at his lips, which I am definitely doing a Normal and Not-Weird Amount - I’m just keeping an eye out for the famed Silver Tongue, and not in any way wondering how it would feel in my own mouth -
it’s actually DEFINITELY plausible for Lucifer to still be released even if our designated Heir Apparent is using his demon powers to his full potential and no one’s lying to each other about their motives. You just need to let Lilith be more scary too, and especially bc by “no one” I mostly mean Wen Qing; the angels are still totally hiding the fact that they, too, want to jumpstart the shit out of this apocalypse. LWJ decides at the last minute that that’s a bad idea actually, gets himself discorporated to send JC to intercept WWX because he accidentally releases Lucifer, etc. etc. Oh yeah, the boys were def fighting before this, bc JC has actually fairly reasonable concerns about the sort of things WWX is getting up to in his quest to become King of Hell...
SO
...I neither know nor care what happens in s5
it does end with both Lucifer and Michael locked in the cage probably, bc I rather liked that solution. Fuck both of ‘em, basically.
I was toying with the idea that WWX also found Madam Yu in whatever hellish torment she was suffering after making a deal so her idiot son(s) would survive, and she was leading forces for him in the war against Lilith as well. If she came back to life somehow, body and all, it’d probably be compelling if she offered her own body to Michael - bc it’s her lineage! - and we’re all led to believe that she’s, uh, being a bitch and actually wants to risk destroying the world in order to destroy all demons...but then she seizes back control and flings herself/Michael and Lucifer into the Pit, because she’s just That Hardcore?
which means we’d actually have had her around and having characterization for most of s4-5, too, which would be fun
More importantly, it ends with newly crowned King of Hell Wei Wuxian appointing Wen Qing as Queen-Regent and ditching to go on an indefinite honeymoon with his new angel boyfriend (they’re going to fuck for like three weeks straight, then roll up their sleeves and go conquer Heaven in the name of free will), and Jiang Cheng gets to live out his hitherto-unknown-to-himself life’s ambition to be the sugar baby of the Queen of Hell. It’s very Hades/Persephone, except he goes back down to the underworld at least once a month. He gets his own demon squad whom he trains up in all the hunting techniques and it’s gr9. Wen Qing is reforming the crossroads deal process to make it more fair to the humans.
the end
Addenda:
it should go without saying but Jiang Yanli is definitely a recurring character, like, at least once a season there’s a filler episode where they go to Jiang Yanli’s for dinner and have to get along as a family, and also do the much easier job of defeating some sort of terrible demon that gets loose in the bunker and turns the evening into a horror movie. She’s their main research/emotional check-in person, a la Bobby, more often appearing in later seasons when there’s, uhhh, more to emotionally check in about.
Jin Zixuan is actually a perfectly competent hunter; he’s just a priss and we don’t Like him
we like Mianmian, though. Oh, I guess the official Hunter’s Guild or w/e tries to declare WWX a public enemy on account of the whole “King of Hell” thing and she’s like “actually what if you’re morons and assholes?” and joins hte team in s4 or 5? Yeah.
idk how the 3zun disaster happens in this ‘verse but I do encourage it to be happening in slow motion as a recurring subplot for several seasons. NMJ is a hunter, LXC is obv an angel, and JGY is...I wanna say one of the more human monsters, like a vampire? Or, you know, something that could be born from JGS sleeping with someone/something he shouldn’t have

Intruders- Jessie Reyez (A Review)
Introduction
So from the first time I heard this song and watched the video I knew I had to write something on this. I have always loved Jessie Reyez, I even wrote one of my thesis papers about her song “Gatekeeper”. If I can find it I will definitely post it here. The topics that I will tackle with this one are quite heavy but it must be done. We will be looking at colonialism, the manipulation of history and the personification of nature.
The Artist
My girl Jessie Reyez has been making music people have been afraid to make and I will say something I don’t say often; she is so underrated. I wish more people knew about her and the messages she convey in her lyrics. Her voice is also so unique and she sings with so much passion and conviction. I have watched so many live performances of hers and I haven’t been disappointed so far. If you have never heard of Jessie Reyez I do encourage you to give her music a listen. Also she has a new album out called “Before Love Came to Kill us”, stream that ish everywhere.

Song
Listen here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVhqNnFh25E
So in most of Jessie’s lyrics she does this very interesting thing which again I wish more people talked about. The lyrics of her songs usually create a meta narrative. This just means that there is a main story which possesses a message or a world view within another story. For instance using “Intruders” as an example it reads like a love letter and sounds like a love song. I was casually browsing the comments on some lyrics sites for this song and a lot of people just saw the song as her saying that the man is hers and these “intruders” or other females don’t belong within their relationship. Absolutely nothing is wrong with seeing the lyrics as that alone but if you dig deeper paying special attention to certain words, you would see that this song is a lot more than what meets the eyes or ears. That is where the concept of the meta narrative comes into play. The story we read or hear on one level is a love story and the main story is about land being taken. People who would have done a little history even secondary school history know there is a term for such actions:colonialism. For a little recap National Geographic explains it to be when “one nation subjugates another, conquering its population and exploiting it, often while forcing its own language and cultural values upon its people”. If you watched the music video you would see more physical representations of colonialism which I will get into but for now we are looking at the words and what they say.
From the first set of lines in the song there is reference to the original natives of whatever colonized land she is writing about, “I found ya, cleared land / Put down my flag /This is mine from now on”. As someone from the Caribbean I immediately thought of the Amerindians of the greater Antilles. These Amerindians or Indigenous people are known to be the original settlers of the Caribbean and possibly that of America. There were some studies done to try and track where these people came from and the results varied. Some researchers claimed they came from the Amazon while others said the DNA found from bones matched that of people from Asia. Wherever they traveled from they are the known first civilization of people to inhabit these lands. Just those opening lines say a lot as it relates to theme and it is amazing how much just a few lines can say.
There are other pieces of evidence of this song alluding to a telling of the colonization of native lands and people. In the second verse she sings “ I wrote you a love song /A war song/ I'll sing it when the ships come, yeah / I'll die for my state” which paints the picture of the natives standing together as the ships of the foreigners arrive willing to die for their land. And that is exactly what happened. Some assimilated while the ones who rose up were killed like animals. It was an act of genocide and historical records tend to see it another way. These records refer to the Amerindian settlements as pre-history which is incorrect as pre-history implies that the colonization of the land is the main or more important part of history when all of it is our history. This is what I meant by the manipulation of history. Just like there is evidence ie artifacts and relics as proof of the Europeans “discovering” the land, there is also evidence of the first settlers. It was a fully structured civilization which involved the tools they used, the type of agriculture grown and even their burial rituals and customs. So therefore we cannot and should not see it as pre-history. For instance, growing up in the Caribbean, history was taught according to a British curriculum.It was only when I got older and more educated that I realised how biased it was. it was framed to make the Europeans look like our saviours. No sir!
Video
So the music video is a visual representation of this message or meta narrative that the song has. The video starts with a kind of Pocahontas like colours of the wind vibe with the main character worshiping the land. The land itself is personified as a man. Personification is giving more of less inanimate objects human-like features. The main character is using every part of the land to live and at the same time not harming it.
It is a relationship that functions in harmony.....
......until the fire nation attacked....I mean colonizers.
I feel like the Toronto-based studio, Solis Animation really studied the lyrics of the song and were able to create a video that works with the true meaning. Actually with both meanings of the the meta narrative. It functions as painting a picture of a love story but also one that shows an aspect of history that some people gloss over, that is, colonialism. I mean you can’t get clearer about what this video is really about. Even taking a look at what the colonizers were wearing. The uniforms were very similar to that of either the English or Spanish military like the colour scheme and the shape of the hats.
I also think it is important to note that all the people who came off the ships were female. This ties back to the part of the song that infers that it is about a love story. It is to mean that the intruders in the video while describing European colonizers, are also symbolizing the other women that would want to enter the relationship.
As the good parts of the land were personified we also saw what happens when land is pillaged and destroyed, mainly how it bleeds. This heavily reminded me of the poem by Eric Roach called “Carib and Arawak” from his book The Flowering Rock. The poem really speaks about the land remembering the history of the genocide of the indigenous people of the Caribbean in particular the Caribs and Arawaks of Trinidad and Tobago. The poem highlights the concept of the flowers (hibiscus) grown on the land after colonial times being a reminder of the blood and death that occurred on the land. The hibiscus because of their original and true colour being red, it symbolizes how the land is bleeding out of revenge of the past. I absolutely love this poem and if you have an interest in reading it, message me as I know it is almost impossible to find online.
In these couple of frames we also see that she is willing to fight for her lands. This time marking herself with the blood of her home on her way to defend it. This shows the fighting spirit of the natives in order to protect their home. Based on historical accounts and records it states that some natives were peaceful and ready to cooperate until they were betrayed and they felt the need to reclaim their home.
I believe we have come to the end of analyzing this piece of art. As someone from the Caribbean I really appreciated the way this video was put together. It emphasizes a part of our history which is sometimes buried and lost. It took a little longer to pull together not only because of the the research but also things going on in real life. I hope you learned something from reading this and if you feel like you can educate me some more on the topic feel free!

Circumstances suchlike this were favoured by the stalwartness incarnated; on opportunity to strengthen nexus and amicability with her beloved comrades. Generosity was a connotation that would depict yours truly, in equivalence of gentle brushstrokes swirling around blank canvas dexterously, with elegance. The bestowal of unfortunate circumstance at constancy, with consequent calamity and grief following thereafter was a repetitive circumstance that would remain ceaseless as long as their respiratory system is still in function. Thence, she would take advantage of such opportunities presented, to spend her leisure time with those who wield the same insignia as she does.
For now, irises of a chocolate complexion would gaze at the accessories presented in her vision with evident marvel gracing valorous mien. The footwear in question had an appearance from ancient times, akin to medieval ones with particular engravings placed meticulously, offering a far more pleasing aesthetic to the eye. No wonder why this captured Chico's attention.
❛ These look really good. ❜
❛ I am sure you can think of something. They suit you a lot, already. ❜
A brief pause took transpiration, as momentarily afterwards she would cease such abrupt quietude.
❛ Don't be afraid to get out of your comfort zone, sometimes. Believe me, it would help you a lot as it has helped me as well. ❜
@gallantfairy // cont.
🕯 ❚❙❘ Chico found herself sitting in a rather comfortable chair while she waiting for the other to finish dressing. The establishment seemed high end, armor making was probably a lucrative business. Considering how attentive the clerks were seemed to only add to that thought. She could understand why there was such an effort to make the customers feel comfortable, after all a person was putting their trust and life in the hands of those smiths and designers who made such items.
The spirit mage wasn't one to come here alone. Honestly it was a pure chance that her eyes had caught something in the window long enough for Erza to spot her and invite her in. She of course did not mind, although it seemed one of her ghost friends was even more fascinated that she. He had browsing ever since they entered, her eyes hovering on him more than the merchandise.
Erza finally emerging from the dressing room pulled her attention away. The comment made was genuine, but she didn't expect it to be thrown back. ❝I don't know... I don't think the whole suited up look works for me.❞ Not to mention the strength one must have to wear those around.
❝However...❞ Chico got up from her seat and headed towards her invisible companion, reaching for the spiked boots he had been standing in front of for a while now. Something that looked like a mix of a medieval and gothic aesthetic. ❝You think I could pull these off?❞
#❛ █ MAIN VERSE; HERE SHE COMES. READY TO FIGHT. READY TO CONQUER. ❜#quiiscnt#don't even worry about that !! i'm not the fastest one either lmao#i remember reading your info on chico but if there's anything more i need to know don't hesitate to let me know :>

Love Story : Taylor Swift’s Crowning Moment
On 12th September , 2008 a 19yr old girl from Reading, Pennsylvania released the third single from her second-ever studio album “Fearless” Unbeknownst to Taylor Swift she had cemented her place in the history of country music and took the first step into becoming the global icon she is today in 2020.
Anyone who’s ever heard a Taylor Swift song probably knows the lyrics to this song by heart and gets one of the strongest nostalgia feelings ever. This song started the journey of Swift’s rise to stardom and probably one of the most important songs in music history.
Like most of Taylor’s songs back then and probably now as well this was written from her experiences as a teenager . Love Story was also met with a lot of indifference by her record label Big Machine Records ( at the time we all know what they did now ) and mainly from her parents but Taylor later stated that it was a fun experience to fight for it especially now that she had something to prove.
When the song released it received much critical acclaim and sold an astonishing 18+million copies making it one of the most sold singles of all time peaking at number 4 in the billboard hot 100 while also certifying itself 8 times platinum making it one of the best selling singles in the USA also once held the record for the most sold single of all time in the US.
The music video maintained the feel of the song setting itself in the 1800s .Love Story is the only Taylor Swift single to feature on all of her headline tours followed by the 1989 single “Shake It Off” which she now uses to close off all of her shows .
But what made this song what it is today and making Taylor the most important musical artist of this century?
Let’s take a deciphering look. Here We Go!
Starting off with the composition & backstory
Backstory -
As the song suggests and from a Taylor Swift interview she wrote this song because of a relationship of her’s which her parents did not approve of making her relate her situation to that of Romeo and Juliet one of her main ways of defining the situation in this song is that of saying “No one wanted them to be together except themselves”
The song’s ending differed from the one of Romeo & Juliett Taylor said the following on that — “I feel like they had such promise & they were so crazy for each other. And if that had gone a little bit differently, it could have been one of the best love stories ever told. And it is one of the best stories ever told but it’s a tragedy.”
When Taylor started writing this song she’s stated multiple times that she wrote this on her bedroom floor when she was 17 & that she finished composing the song in 20mins, feeling too inspired to put the song down unfinished.
The song was recorded at Blackbird Studios in Nashville produced by Nathan Chapman. Swift recorded this on an Avantone CV-12 Mic, Chapman initially loaned the mic to Swift to try out but when Swift tried it out she said “Test” followed by “This is my mic. I love this mic, I just want to use this now ” and she’s been doing the same ever since.
Composition —
The song is written in the key of D Major spanning one vocal octave with a length of 3mins 54secs at a tempo of 120BPM
Intro -
The songs start with palm muting on the transition of C-G-Am-F while capoed at 2nd fret. With a major emphasis on the bass strings on the acoustic guitar.
Verses —
The song goes to palm-muted strumming with the transition of C-F-Am-F before ending with Am — G while Taylor starts off a soft voice presumably of Juliett.
Pre Chorus -
Often regarded as the most iconic part of the song the palm muting goes into open strumming with 8 strums on each chord on a transition of F-G-Am-C before ending it with G-Am-F-G
Chorus -
With fingerpicking backing, Taylor Swift goes into the transition of C-G-Am-F-G-C before an abrupt cut-off.
Solo —
The solo has 2 versions the electric one being a distortion based used for live shows played by her guitarist Paul Stitodi and the acoustic finger-picked one from the original record with a chord progression in the background.
Bridge -
Anyone who’s heard a Taylor song knows that she loves a bridge with her acknowledging it with the Love Story one had a basic yet vital one which led into one of the most epic chorus performances.
Outro -
Taylor ends the story on the transition of D-A-Bm-G-A-D playing one of the best examples of 21st-century country music.
Onto the lyrics
Disclaimer — This is my interpretation and by no means correct
Intro -
Even though the intro contains no lyrics it is one of the best pieces of country intro and so perfectly 2008
Verse — 1
We were both young when I first saw you
I closed my eyes and the flashback started
I’m standing there on a balcony in summer air
Taylor narrates the story from Juliett’s standpoint
The narrator begins the story by saying how she was a young girl ( as it’s Juliett we have to assume 13) when she first saw Romeo she closes her eyes and everything they had to go through starts happening in front of her again.
She starts the backstory off by reliving the day she first saw Romeo how she started off the day in the lovely breeze standing in her balcony when she first caught the glimpse of Romeo.
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
and say hello, little did I know
Juliett takes the story to the night during the palace ball when she was mesmerised by the decorations around her while admiring she saw Romeo for the first time properly making way through the party to meet her and when he finally does Juliett says little did she know what was to follow
Pre Chorus -
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said “Stay away from Juliett”
And I was crying on my staircase begging you please don’t go
The story takes a time jump to presumably a few days later when Romeo is trying his best to meet Juliett but not without alerting Juliett’s father who tells him to never come close to her again. This leaves Juliett absolutely distraught.
Chorus -
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting all there’s left is to run
You’ll be the prince & I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story baby just say yes
Juliett feeling absolutely distraught from this seemingly pleads to Romeo that he takes her someplace where the can be together being their own prince & princess all it requires is for him to say yes.
Verse — 2
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet ’cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
Juliett continues by saying how she risked everything to meet Romeo and how even the slightest of errors could land them in serious trouble. She ends by saying it’s time to leave town and live on their own terms.
Pre — Chorus
’Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliett
But you were everything to me I was begging you
Please don’t go
Juliett continues by saying ( assuming they got caught ) how Romeo meant everything to him and how she couldn’t live without him
Chorus —
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story baby just say yes
Romeo save me, they’re tryna tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Don’t be afraid we’ll make it outta this mess
It’s a love story baby just yes
Juliett goes on to beg to Romeo to save her from the grasps of her family and how they’re forcing their thought process on her. Romeo this time acknowledges this and asks her not to be afraid he will make everything right.
Solo -
All I can say about this solo is Taylor Swift perfectly captured the feelings of all things country.
Bridge —
I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
Juliett ( assuming Romeo left for a while ) leaves the palace after growing restless and how she was losing trust in what Romeo told her when she finally encountered him on the outskirts of town .
Chorus -
Romeo save me I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I Dont know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
Marry me, Juliett you’ll never have to be alone
I love you and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad go pick out a white dress
It’s a love story baby just say yes
Meeting after a while Juliett finally spoke her heart out on how she’s been lonely and desperate for him to come back only for him to disappoint & finally asks Romeo is this even real?
All of a sudden Romeo kneels to the ground and brings out a ring proposing to Juliett finally and assuring her everything has finally worked out their families have agreed and it’s time for the wedding bells to ring and asks her to go choose a wedding dress but before just say yes.
Outro -
Oh, Oh
Cause we were both young when I first saw you
Bringing it back to the present Juliett exclaims how it was an experience to never forget and how they were both young when they fell in love.
The lyrics to this song might’ve been very basic but the passion of a young & ready to conquer Taylor Swift made it one of the greatest songs of all time.
This song started a journey for Taylor the journey of making her arguably the biggest artists of the 2010s the girl from “Fearless” transformed into a world wide phenomenon.
Her next album “Red” which released in 2012 was her first time testing out a new genre with the flavour of pop in the song “We Are Never Getting Back Together” to the dubstep inspired “I Knew You Were Trouble”.
In 2014 she released her synth-pop inspired 1989 with songs like “Shake It Off” and the defining song of the album “Blank Space”, the album did not even contain a single drop of country music but was if not the best one of the best works of Taylor.
In 2017 she dropped Reputation a dark album in which she hit out against all the toxic critics ( rightly so ) something which majority of artists are scared to do and became a role model for future artists to come with songs like “Look What You Made Me Do” & “Ready For It”.
She ended the 2010s with her final album Lover a joyful yet meaningful album taking her back to her roots from Fearless although still working for the betterment of the world with “You Need To Calm Down”.
Though Taylor Swift didn’t win any major accolades for Love Story
She forever won the hearts of the world and started her journey on the road to becoming the definition of success & an icon.

CNN had to stage it. Because there are never any Muslim protests against jihad or female genital mutilation or gender apartheid or creed apartheid or Islamic antisemitism.

Islamic State Claims Responsibiity for London Attack, Calls for More “Revenge” Terror
The Islamic State’s (IS) ‘Amaq News Agency reported the June 3, 2017 vehicular and stabbing attacks in London, England were carried out by Muslim fighters. And what is motivating the Islamic State, jihadis native to Britian and ihadis in San Bernardino, Orlando, Chattanooga, Garland, New York, etc. What motivates the hundreds of thousands of Muslims waging jihad across the world? Islam.

Robert Spencer: Enough is Enough, Prime Minister May. Resign.
Theresa May said it herself after the London jihad attacks. “It is time,” she declared, “to say enough is enough.” Great idea, Prime Minister. Enough is enough: it’s time for you to do the decent thing and resign.
Pamela Geller on BREITBART RADIO News Sunday Edition: Jihad Terror Attacks in London
I’ll be on Breitbart Sunday News Edition tonight at 7:40 pm Eastern to discuss the catastrophic failures of Western policies in combating jihad and terror and what we can expect if we continue down this suicidal path.
Elite Media Insist Jihadis “Hijacked” and “Perverted” Islam. How, exactly?
As I have so often lamented. in the wake of horrific jihad terror comes the post-jihad dawah (proselytizing for Islam). While jiahdis scream “allahu akbar’ and ‘takbir’ elites in the media and academia assure us it is not about Allah or Islam. It’s demented.
Jihadis have “perverted” and/or “hijacked” Islam. How? How have they perverted it. They cite Quranic texts and teachings chapter and verse. They follow the hadith, Muhammad’s example.
Horrific Eyewitness Accounts of London Jihad Attacks on Ramadan, “Woman Stabbed 10 or 15 times” by Men Shouting, “This is for Allah”
In the wake of the elite media scrubbing and censoring the Islamic motive while fingerwagging at us that the attack in the name of Allah had nothing to do with Allah, comes the little heard eyewitness accounts:
BREAKING: Major armed police terror operation underway in London
State of war.
It’s a tricky thing, fighting a war with an enemy you not only refuse to name but insist is peaceful and merciful.
Supreme Court EXPEDITES Trump’s Petition on Travel Ban Case #BacktheBan
The case before the Supremes need no more than body count of Islamic terror attacks in the West and (as illustrated in our ad campaign which we are suing to get up in Seattle), the names of refugees arrested in jihad terror-related crimes here in America.
More jihad —> More sharia: Theresa May says the internet must now be “regulated” following London Bridge terror attack
The left has already proved to be too fearful of Islam to take real action against jihadis. Let me assure you, these measures will be used to silence my colleagues and me. Free exchange of ideas is not the problem. Islamic texts and teachings that exhort to jihad is the problem.
London jihad attack: Twelve Muslims arrested in heavily immigrant east London neighborhood
If the torn, dismembered bodies of little girls at an Ariana Grande concert was not a game-changer, then nothing will moved the conquered and the unmovable. Teddy bears, candlelight vigils and hashtags will not defeat jihad. Submission is surrender, it’s not a strategy.
VIDEO: Muslims Take Over Fifth Avenue, NYC, Street Prayers/Protest in Front of Trump Tower for Ramadan, NOT AGAINST JIHAD TERROR
Have we ever seen Muslims take to the streets like this to oppose jihad terror?
No. Why take over and pray in the street? Muslim supremacism
London Bridge attack: Five Muslims held as police raid flats in Barking “in connection with terror attack”
Metropolitan Police have raided flats in east London “in connection with a terror attack at London Bridge which left seven people dead”.
Theresa May says ‘enough is enough’ in wake of London Bridge terror attack
“It is an ideology that is a perversion of Islam and a perversion of the truth.”
CNN’s Reza Aslan: Trump “piece of s**t” for calling for travel ban in wake of London jihad attacks
Wanting to defend Americans from jihad massacres makes Trump a “piece of s**t,” and “embarrassment to America,” a “stain on the presidency,” and an “embarrassment to humankind.”

If you were to tell her that this is what Mirajane would be doing in several years upon their first encounter, she would have laughed at your face. But here she is --- exuding perpetual benevolence accompanied with the sentiment of fondness. Yet despite such behavioural characteristics, she could still stand as an equal in terms of potency. The beauteous mage was known for her incredible strength after all. Nevertheless, she is still Mirajane in the eyes of personified valor; a great friend, indeed.
But for now, attention was concentrated solely on the sugary delights presented in front of her; already engaged in the consumption of one of the displayed delicacies, calloused fingertips already held the next subject to be devoured. Its pastel colors, its scent of fruits freshly gathered from the forest, its welcoming presentation ready to be put in a display of a showcase --- intoxicating.
❛ Sounds ideal to me! Everybody loves your cooking already so, it's a matter of time for everyone in the Guild to love your baking skills as well. ❜
Of course, such would be her reponse, expressed with blissfulness upon gallant facade ( with an addition of some frosting in a bubblegum tint, gracing her cheekbone )
❛ I always favoured strawberry based sweets, so maybe take that into consideration? Or any wild berry flavoured treats? Those are always popular! ❜
❛ --- If you want, I can bake you some to see for yourself!! ❜
And that would be a humogous mistake, for anyone to try.
MIRAJANE CAN SEE THE KNIGHT‘S excitement, her usually austere expression displaying enthusiasm. Erza is well-renowned for her strength and power, naturally projecting intimidation to anyone who doesn‘t know her well. But to Mirajane, she‘s just Erza. Once upon a time, her rival and equal. Even after they‘d toned down, their camaraderie had grown over the years.
❝Go ahead.❞ She beckons towards the sweet treats lined up on the table. Mini-cakes, puddings, tarts and macaroons. The servings are just the right amount, and it‘s all for her. If the other wants to take home some of them, she wouldn‘t mind.
The takeover mage watches in anticipation as the redhead starts diving into the desserts. Glossed lips curl into a smile, her eyes lighting up at the praise. ❝Thank you! I plan to add a dessert bar to the pub. If you have any ideas on what‘s trending these days, you can share it with me. I‘d appreciate it.❞
#❛ █ MAIN VERSE; HERE SHE COMES. READY TO FIGHT. READY TO CONQUER. ❜#thebellatores#this is how mira dies#erza's cooking and baking skills are the equivalent of an overly enthusiastic Laxus: nonexistent

❛ why is everyone in this guild so gods damned stupid? ❜ (from knightwalker)
( * / @thebellatores / unprompted )
Thick brows furrowed consequently creating a knot betwixt them, upon hearing her variant's words. A question of rhetorism from her counterpart, a statement that acted as promptitude for annoyance to surface upon gallant mien. Truthfully, there were individuals that did not possess a meritorious amount of intelligence in comparison to some others, but that wasn't for an outlander to judge. Or so that's what she believed. To her, regardless how they were, they remained as her valuable comrades that she would gladly defend them to the ends.
For now, utmost concentration was directed at the one who refers herself as Knightwalker. One with excellent mastery in swordsmanship like herself, but lack of manners from her own perspective.
❛ They are definitely loud. ❜
❛ But your opinion is certainly not appreciated and I suggest you act with the little dignity that you have. ❜

it's honestly nothing. i can deal with it myself. // jelly ~
( * / @ofcentvries / prompt / accepting )
Evident concernment had graced gallant lineaments upon witnessing the injury her comrade had suffered. Ineluctable, due to their nature and proficiency as wizards, yet constantly unsightly behold. Jellal may not be wielding the same insignia as he does, but he is still serving the purpose of an ally, regardless. And in defiance of being regarded as of the strongests mages within te lands of Earthland, it did not guarantee perfection either. Such notion is non - existent for those who thrive for the betterment of the future, and of themselves.
Fow now, armored arms had made a folded arrangement underneath shielded thorax, with the vision of her wounded comrade never diverting from her sight, neither would her disquietness.
❛ While it doesn't look life threatening, I would suggest you take a break. We are already handling this, with the situation being to our advantage. ❜
❛ --- So I suggest you head towards Wendy and let her take a look at this. You cannot afford losing more blood. ❜

( @aetrnalis / prompts / accepting )
❛ ---- ?! ❜
Stricken with an unanticipated circumstance, the gallant knight could only do so much as to allow a sigh to escape parted lips. Seemingly, and inevitably, anyone could partake in such activities --- despite how surprising it might be. After all, Jellal wasn't someone that appears to be the life of the party.
❛ Careful not to overdo it, you party animal. ❜

Stalwartness incarnated gracing her presence in the familiar lands of Magnolia. Prideful strides in a canonical pattern would echo the atmosphere, due to the miniscule heels of her boots making contact with the cold cobblestone, creating a repetitive clicking sound. Her destination was none other but the rambunctious premises of Fairy Tail, in preparedness to engage in customary hulabaloo and partake in potability with her fellow comrades.
. . . ? !
However, such act appeared to be casted aside, the minute she sensed an unfamiliar presence lingering in proximity. Feet impaled on the cold ground, as she would incline her head in a variety of directions, in hopes to take notice of what prompted such unrecognizable sense to lurk amid the ambiance. Thence, austerity was portrayed upon gallant mien, alerted.

Eats Strawberry cake in front of her. (Natsu)
( * / @thebellators / unprompted )
The nerve.
The audacity.
The gumption.
Tranquility subsisting within the rambunctious premises of Fairy Tail was a scarce concept to transpire. Lieu, anyone would be greeted with a hullabaloo alongside with briskness and an odour of alcohol lingering amid the ambiance. Such was the customary sight for anyone to behold within Magnolia's pride and joy of a Guild. An optimum view than the one filled with catastrophy of a warfare's results.
And there she was; prideful strides gracing aforementioned construction, with evident refusal in partaking in fatuous brawls or potability. Her heart's strongest desire included a piece of her favourite delicacy; fluffy sponge engulfed in delicious frosting, ornamented with freshly picked up berries. Ah, she could even imagine having a bite of such, chewing it and allowing her tastebuds to explore in a land filled with vivid greenery and a variety of flowers.
Until this.
All contemplations ceased the minute umber complexions glanced at the sight of her fellow comrade, who seemingly appeared unbothered by such felonious act. Scrutinizing the mouthfuls taken one by one, a prominent vein had surfaced atop her forehead, indicating current sentiment of exasperation. A labored exhalation from nostrils took place, as momentarily afterwards distinctive magical prowess was generated from her right hand, soon for a sword with intricate engravings from the hilt to the blade, to materialize thereupon. If anyone is capable enough to sense the supernatural strength known as magic, an ominous aura would be effortessly seen emitting from her existence.
Honestly now, can anyone have some peace in this place?
❛ I hope you have a good explanation for such audacious act, Natsu. Or else, I will show no hesitation in beheading you. ❜
Who said that quietude was a common thing in this Guild? No one.

Unimpeded posture had graced the lands of Magnolia, with feet impaled upon the cold cobblestone. Strictness was evident upon canvas of gallantry. Distinguishable supernatural prowess was generated from one hand, and momentarily thereafter an inanimate object resembling of a sword had made an appearance. Grasping it, chocolate complexions would hurl a scrutiny at her surroundings.
There was something lingering. Something unfamiliar to her.

❛ It's been a while since I've seen you around the Guild. ❜
Lips took an upward curvature upon her face, in a positive acknowledgement of her fellow comrade. Despite his presence was being quite absent for obvious reasons, the spirit still remained a good comrade of hers, regardless. Such was the camaraderie of Fairy Tail.
❛ I assume you are here on your own? ❜
