The original waltz, "Fascination", written in 1904, and quite fitting to the game: composed by a man who had italian origins, but written in france.

Do you ever think he imagined people still like his song?

(**Warning: Spoilers for OFMD season 2, episodes 6 and 7.)

Just finished watching the newest episodes of OFMD 2 and I am a complete shambles. The fact that we've now gotten multiple Ed/Stede kisses, and everything around how messy and beautiful and human they are, has left me aching. But mostly all I can think about is how badly I want to see this with Michael and David:

We've already seen how powerful their connection is--on and off screen--and I would so love to see Michael and David portray this type of intimacy, even if it's not in Good Omens. I want to see them in that afterglow, that utter domesticity of the second gif, resting against throw pillows and bathed in soft morning light. Imagine seeing Michael and David so vulnerable and messy and queer, so perfectly queer and human and alive. And I want them to do it in a context where they don't have to apologize, where there's no hemming or hawing or hedging, only bodies and hearts doing what they do when two people who belong to each other share a moment like this.

I truly hope it does happen someday, both for Michael and David's sakes and ours...

HELLO! i adore your hcs too much 😭 and i want to ask if you have anything about stéphane from rose griffon? for some reason i feel like he’s underrated compared to the other midfielders,, (p.s. jean is LITERALLY this emoji: 😈)

AAAA Thank you so much!!! ;v; And I have quite a lot for him, so I'll share some!

Stéphane is from Nimes, a city from the south of France, mostly known for its roman colosseum (Les Arènes) that hosts events like bullfights and such. In just a couple of years, Stéphane went from seeing the place from afar... To performing chansons on it.

But to summarize the how; it all goes back to some years before the FFI. Even though he wasn't popular yet, Stéphane had a huge love for music, so alongside school he would assist special classes as to write music. It was there when his first songs came from; at first covers yet eventually branching out to more original lyrics and melodies. However, those were meant only to be listened by his teachers and classmates. That was until, at the end of the year, a local radio host offered the kids to showcase their best tunes across the country.

...However, what nobody was expecting is that of all the broadcasted songs, Stéphane's one would awaken a frenzy in the public. Soon enough the station was bombarded with letters of fans begging the hosts to play the song more often, and also as to know who had composed such masterpiece. The thing had became so big that after a long discussion, the Henno agreed to release few of Stéphane's songs in the form of a CD. A huge success!

So, as time went on till the FFI, Stéphane kept composing songs; some being kept private and others published on CDs, all of them still selling like crazy -and even worldwide!-. Though despite being at a different level of skill and fame than his classmates, he still insists on assisting composing classes. Too bad he sticks out like a sore thumb.

At least compared of those of his same level, Stéphane prefers to be humble. No matter how much fame or skill he has, he still insists to live in a low profile, never wanting to consider himself "different" just because of his circumstances. For example, although he has made enough money as to soon move to the more "artistic" Paris, Stéphane insists he wants to keep living on Nimes, because no matter how simple or small it is; that's the place that saw him grow.

...He's not that different from Laurent, who also desires to live like a normal person, so I can see them getting on well. I can also see him be on good terms with Ronny, even though the latter prefers luxury over simplicity. Émile is one of Stéphane's many fans, and once he got the chance to, he asked him to sign his CD case. And as for Pierre and Julien... He's way too calm to properly understand them 😭

I'll cut this here to avoid writing too much. Nonetheless, hope you like it! ♥ And you can always ask for more or any other character 👌

(AND YES YOU'RE RIGHT!!! Every time I saw that emoji I was like "JEAN GUTAIN????" 😈😭)

For my baby gays who dont listen to old ppl music La Vie En Rose was the song of Edith Piaf. She had a beautiful heartbreaking voice and life. She died of alcoholism i think in her 50s (theres a movie about her).

So she seemed a perfect person for Izzy to cover

No Regrets is her other famous song and its about having no regrets no matter how shit ur life is

“C’est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie.”

I looked up a translation of Édith Piaf’s “La Vie en rose” instead of the English lyrics and I find the original lyrics to be much more romantic.

(Side note, if you’re a fan of Our Flag Means Death, read the translation while Izzy sings the French lyrics at the end of S2E6 if you want your heart to melt.)
