do you happen to have any other bls with toxic kings up your sleeve? i’m as giddy as you when it comes to ming! i’m newer to bls, so there’s a good chance i haven’t seen whatever you suggest.
Anon, I have an entire roster of toxic characters because
I LOVE TOXIC BITCHES!
Tumblr media
Like 2 Chainz rapped on one of my favorite songs, "I love bad bitches, that's my fuckin' problem" which is why I HATE when a story won't allow characters to be toxic. Like we all know the character IS toxic, but the story keeps telling us he isn't that bad or he is only that bad because reasons. Regardless of the reasons, the character is a bad bitch so why not just let him fucking own it, which is truly the reason Only Friends pissed me off so much.
Tumblr media
Case and point, my favorite characters were Ray and Nick. Ray was calling Sand a whore every two seconds and throwing money at him, while Nick was recording non-consexual sex tapes, yet the narrative wanted me to think they were just sad dudes who were slightly problematic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
NAH! Nick straight up said he was trash! THEY WERE TOXIC just like everyone else in that damn show!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Which is why I liked Kang in Dangerous Romance because I don't feel like the narrative eased up on his toxicity. In fact, I feel like the story said Sailom was into it with that master/servant scene at the very end.
Tumblr media
So in order for me to love a toxic character, they must 1) be considered toxic by the story, and 2) stay toxic, so I'm going to give you a list of ten of my favorites, but know that spoilers are coming your way too. Also know that I do not recommend anything, ever, so these are not recommendations. These are merely my favorite toxicitos.
Mis tóxicos favoritos
presented in no particular order
Todd - Not Me
Tumblr media
This man had his lover (it's canon to me) beat into a coma. Then, he went and grabbed that man's twin brother and made him take on his lover's persona all so he could overthrow his competition and be the number one evil capitalist. And then, AND THEN, he was excited to see his lover, Black, return even though he knew that meant he was probably going to die. Honestly, his entire relationship with Black was toxic, and I desperately need more of it. Not Me 2: Blackout when? WHEN, GMMTV?!
Rio & Kido - The Novelist Series
Tumblr media
Rio blew Kido in front of an old man in broad daylight, so they could get a book deal. That's just one of the many fucked up things these two did together, but they were even worse apart. Rio lied to a college student for months about his arm being injured and writing pornographic novels just to turn on the college student and fuck him because . . . he was bored? It's deeper than that, but it kinda ain't. Rio and Kido did toxic shit to feel alive and that's my special brand of toxic. I will never make excuses for them. I like them this way.
Yai - Big Dragon
Tumblr media
The very beginning of this show, as in the very first scene, is Yai and Mangkorn having sex AFTER Yai drugged Mangkorn in hopes of sexually assaulting him and recording it. AND MANGKORN IS INTO IT! Yai tries to steal Mangkorn's phone and ruin his life too, but Mangkorn is so in love with Yai, that he is willing to play along with whatever Yai does including fighting Yai. This is one of my favorite BLs for a multitude of reasons, but the biggest is because instead of trying to tame Yai, Mangkorn just decided to match his toxic energy! I love that for them.
Songpol - Club Friday
Tumblr media
Bank plays toxic very well, which is why he has two characters on this list, even though this show isn't technically a BL. Club Friday is already a hot mess express, so to be the most toxic character in a show filled with toxic characters means that Songpol was TOK-SICK! He cheated on his boyfriend with multiple men. When his boyfriend left him for a woman, he showed up outside of that woman's house calling her a whore. He then went to their wedding just so he could fuck his ex in a bathroom (on his wedding day). He continued to hook up with his ex, and sent a video to his ex's wife of them having sex, only for her to tell him to move into the house and continue having sex with her husband! AND THAT'S ONLY THE SECOND EPISODE! He was serving telenovela villain, and I want him back.
Vegas - KinnPorsche
Tumblr media
The scene: Vegas' beloved hedgehog has just died and he has carried out a tiny funeral for him while the bodyguard he has been holding hostage AND TORTURING comforts him, but instead of sitting in that grief, Vegas tells the bodyguard that the bodyguard is probably turned on by seeing Vegas weak, then proceeds to fuck him. Skipping over the fact that Vegas drugged Porsche, killed Tawan, got Big and Ken murdered by extension, and a plethora of other horrible shit, Vegas was a HUGE red flag from the very beginning, and I wanted him to choke me so badly. *bites knuckles*
Charn - Laws of Attraction
Tumblr media
He had his reasons, but the story and his husband didn't let that be an excuse for his toxic behavior. He tried burning down Tinn's house, with Tinn and his grandmother in it, and Tinn was very upset about it. Not enough to not sleep with Charn, but enough to get his point across that if Charn wanted to burn something down, he needed to focus on burning down the oppressive heteronormative government, so we could all have basic human rights. Toxic, but for the cause.
Chalothon - The Sign
Tumblr media
I knew he was a problem because the way he handled his patients, but he truly proved how toxic he was when he told Phaya he would kill Tharn before letting Phaya have him. I'm mad that the show made him good in the last episode, with most of if being off-screen, but I'll always remember how he committed psychological warfare on Phaya for eleven episodes in hopes of making Phaya seem crazy, and actually made Tharn, Phaya's soulmate, question Phaya's sanity.
Mol - 180 Degree Longitude Passes Through Us
Tumblr media
The only woman on this list and she isn't even queer. That's how toxic this chick was that she made it on a this list being a heterosexual, which was a major part of her toxicity. She is a top-tier gaslighter to her son. She doesn't actually consider Inn her friend. She uses feminist rhetoric to be homophobic. She manipulates every situation in her favor by using tears. I could write a list just about her being lead paint toxic, but the most fucked up part is that she got to ride off into the sunset with her son in the passenger seat being miserable, which is what she wanted. No other BL parent could reach her level. Korn and Gun from KinnPorsche exist, yet this woman would eat them alive without hesitation, then go throw a party for herself. She really is that bitch.
Yong Jie - HIStory 4: Close to You
Tumblr media
I'm not going to bullshit around him being a whole ass problem. This motherfucker is the most controversial pick on this list, and I am well aware of why he is hated by the people, but the story told us he was the devil. The show treated everything he did like stalking, physical assault, and sexual assault as horrible, and he got knocked out for it. HIStory 4 is my favorite BL, ever, and part of it is because the story let this toxic motherfucker BE toxic. I love how much I hate him, and I love how much the story allows me to hate him.
So - House of Stars
Tumblr media
This show was a mess, so I was not expecting this man to come out as THE toxic king to rule over every other toxic character. What made him so toxic is that I had no idea just how toxic he was until the exact moment I realized it, and that's why he is one of my favorites. He was sneaky. He was playing everyone against each other. He was letting the bodies stack up. He was Tan from Dead Friend Forever without anyone figuring out he was Tan. One person realized part of his plan, but even then, that person was not aware of how committed to the bit So was. This smile was the very last scene of the show, and it really proved that this boy ruined everyone's lives only to walk out of it completely unbothered. You know, king shit.

Year-End Poll #65: 2014
Tumblr media
[Image description: a collage of photos of the 10 musicians and musical groups featured in this poll. In order from left to right, top to bottom: Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, John Legend, Iggy Azalea, OneRepublic, Jason Derulo, Magic!, Meghan Trainor, Ariana Grande, Sam Smith. End description]
More information about this blog here
As mentioned in the previous poll, we're now seeing streaming services like Spotify taking over music consumption. Much like how Billboard had to adapt to individual retail sales in the 1950's, MTV rotation in the 1980's, Nielsen SoundScan in the 1990's, and YouTube views in the early 2010's, Spotify streams are now going to be incorporated more into Billboard's charts, with their album charts adapting to this shift in late 2014.
But before we welcome in another chart, 2014 is the year we'll also have to say goodbye to one. It feels like just yesterday we were talking about the rise of the ringtone. But as musical ringtones were starting to fall out of favor in the general public (with streaming people were growing accustomed to no longer having to pay 99 cents for a song -- they weren't going to pay 2 dollars for a snippet of one), Billboard's ringtone charts were retired in 2014, with Taylor Swift's Shake It Off as the final number 1 ringtone in America.
In 2014, we're seeing the continuing rise of retro-inspired production, with the neo soul of Pharrell Williams' Happy, the doo-wop pastiche of Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass, and the funk elements of Ariana Grande's Problem. And with Jason Derulo's Talk Dirty sampling its hook from Balkan Beat Box's Hermetico, it seems like this was a pretty good year for brass samples. Also fun fact about Happy, apparently that song was Pharrell Williams' tenth attempt at writing a song for the Despicable Me 2 soundtrack. Sadly, we will never hear those other 9 versions. Or else I would have put all of them on this poll.
Speaking of musical influence, we're also starting to see trap starting to rise in mainstream popularity. Trap music is a style of rap originating out of the southern hip-hop scene, notable for its 808 drums, snares, and triple-timed hi-hats. The origins of the style can be traced back to the 1990's during the rise of southern rap, with many trap acts coming out of Atlanta and Memphis. In fact one of the guest rappers on today's poll, Juicy J on Katy Perry's Dark Horse, is one of the pioneers of this style with his group, Three 6 Mafia. While Three 6 Mafia is associated with a variety of subgenres (gangster rap, horrorcore, crunk, etc), the trajectory of trap music can often be traced back to them. I don't usually give out homework on these polls, so instead I will just strongly suggest that you check out Mystic Stylez if you haven't already. We'll have to wait a few years until we see the explosive growth of the modern trap movement in the mainstream.

Name: Aiden Nevaeh (Michaels) Fox

Birthplace: Las Vegas, NV
Neighborhood: Downtown
Length of residency: Since January of 2021
Occupation: Mechanic
Song title: We Own It by Wiz Khalifa ft. 2 Chainz
Bio:
Aiden Michaels was born into a rather affluent family in Las Vegas, her father owning a very successful chain of hotels and her mother an engineering professor, and the youngest of six children. The Michaels family was a social rarity; they were every bit as happy as they appeared. Anthony Michaels and his wife Isabella were two people who were as in love currently as they were on their wedding day. They were hands-on with raising their kids and encouraging them to follow their goals. Some were interested in the hotel business and went on to manage their own hotels, but from a young age, Aiden showed an interest in how things worked. She had a mechanical mind and enjoyed taking things apart to learn how to fix them. Finding a VCR or DVD player completely taken apart when left to her own devices (no pun intended) wasn’t unheard of in the Michaels household. Aiden enjoyed reverse engineering almost as much as she enjoyed putting things back together exactly how she found it. Of course, some things were beyond repair. When Aiden was around elementary school age, she started going to work with Isabella to watch her work on vehicles.
Aiden learned how to fix various vehicles and cars during her formative years, mostly under the tutelage of their mother before they took a part-time job at the garage until she graduated from high school. Her quick mind with math and science coupled with her family’s influence made her a shoo-in basically at whatever college she picked. With the prestige of their engineering programs, Aiden couldn’t be swayed from Stanford University. She moved the nine hours from Vegas to the bay of Cali and she loved every minute of her classes. Her parents’ stipulation for paying for school was that she continued working in the meantime. She found a job in town working on luxury cars, repairing the damage rich kids inflicted due to ignorance. While she herself was a ‘rich kid’ (undercover, mostly because no one wanted to believe the mechanic with engine grease smudged on her face was the kid of a hotel tycoon), she grew tired of watching gearshifts be stripped on vehicles that should last nearly a decade without a tune-up as well as transmissions and engines being ruined from poor handling. The sight of a Rolls-Royce Phantom being dragged into it? Enough was enough, in her opinion. While fixing an issue with the computer on the dash, she was able to disable location and alarm to take the car off the student’s hands in the dead of night. Getting rid of the serial numbers was a snap and a quick paint job later, the car was unrecognizable. Knowing people in the right places truly paid off in the long run, connections she made while working alongside those just trying to survive.
 When she grew bolder and stole the wrong person’s car, she found herself face to face with a man named Daniel Moses, an alleged leader of a ring specializing in high-profile and luxury vehicles. His deal was simple: he wouldn’t bring harm to Aiden or anyone else she cared about if she came to work for him instead. Any car she boosted went into his pocket, and she could lay claim to a cut once her debt was paid off. Her every intention was to pay him back and leave, but every job pulled her in deeper and deeper until she couldn’t see a way out. Once her graduation rolled around, she couldn’t attend graduate school due to being sent across the country to New York City where Daniel’s brother lived. Aiden was in too deep with the ring, and she slowly took money out of her trust fund to save it before disappearing from her family’s lives completely. A hotel heiress meant she could be targeted by big players for ransom, and it was the one thing she couldn’t do to her family. While her parents would have helped her out of it, this was safer. It meant no one potentially got hurt later on. Aiden heard through the grapevine that her family filed a missing person’s report, but the local police could do nothing apart from dropping by the now-vacant apartment she had rented. She survived on cash from her trust fund, as well as anything she made from her pay from working for Daniel’s brother. No credit cards meant no paper trails. Burner phones meant no trace of cell phone activity. No social media presence meant no way to track her movements or location. She prevented people from taking pictures of her or with her. Her life became consumed by stealing and racing cars, boosting stolen property, and laying low from local PD. After a few years of this, she was approached by someone she’d grown somewhat close to (as close as someone could be in their line of work) by the name of Tessa Wright and was let in on a secret that held the potential to ruin everything. She was undercover with the FBI and there was a raid happening soon. If Aiden wanted to stay out of prison, they needed to run.
 When the day of the raid came, Aiden did just that. She took the truck she’d bought with cash and drove south. Within a week, she was in Myrtle Beach, SC and she met up with an old connection for a fake identity. Aiden Michaels became Aiden Fox, and she needed to get out of the city before someone recognized them. Money could only get her so far and she drove with no real destination in mind until she broke down a bit outside Charleston. Having never been there, she sold her truck for cash and bought a bus ticket. A delay in Turtle Bay and she soon realized it was small enough that nobody knew of her.
Personality:
Positive traits: Creative, hard-working, caring
Negative traits: flighty, mistrustful, obstinate

Lil Baby Claims Atlanta is the Hub for Hip-Hop
Tumblr media
Lil Baby performed at the LA3C festival in Los Angeles this past weekend.  It was the first festival for the LA3C, an organization driven to celebrate the creativity and culture of the city of Los Angeles, and the It’s Only Me rapper was the headliner. Snoop Dogg and Kyle were the other rappers to hit the festival stage.  During the festival, he was asked about where hip-hop was as a genre right now. He responded by giving a big praise to Atlanta, his hometown. “As far as culture, I feel like I been feeling.  Atlanta is like the ruler of the culture as far as Hip Hop...” Lil Baby told Billboard magazine. Atlanta is Hip-Hop Lil Baby does have a point here.  Atlanta has been home to some of the hottest artists out right now.  Future, Young Thug, 21 Savage, Quavo, Offset, Gunna, Playboi Carti, Latto, and J.I.D. all hail from Atlanta!  Future’s album I NEVER LIKED YOU is up for a Grammy for Best Rap Album this year and is his eighth number one album.  Young Thug is up for a Grammy along with Gunna for their song “Pushin P”. https://twitter.com/nowhiphopnews_/status/1599442174885494784?s=46&t=xsJ5wtJ6Q0y5nfg_7xEiSQ Playboi Carti is known for his live performances, and he has already been tapped by Rolling Loud to be the headliner for their California festival next year.  Latto is up and coming as she has snagged a Grammy nominee for Best New Artist.  J.I.D. ‘s album The Forever Story is regarded as one of the best albums of this year!  And of course, Atlanta is home to many rap legends.  T.I., Ludacris, Jeezy, OutKast, 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, Killer Mike, and Jermaine Dupri are all products of Atlanta.  They are all still making music today after all these years! The South Runs It Lil Baby might be right about Atlanta being the “ruler of the culture” when you think about all the talent, past and present.  The South has been holding hip-hop down for years now, with Atlanta being at the forefront.  Memphis has been picking it up lately with all the new and exciting artists coming out of there.  And Florida has always had someone to represent.  It must be something in the water in the South.  Will Atlanta ever lose the crown?  If Lil Baby is around, I doubt it.

Uhh... Lil Wayne has a feature verse on Big Sean's Beware with Jhene Aiko that was on the radio nonstop when it dropped.
Wayne also has a feature verse on Chance's No Problem along with 2 Chainz + DJ Khaled's I'm The One that also features Wayne, Chance, Quavo & Bieber. The latter was number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts.
Y'all gotta do y'all homework. Because clearly y'all got Wayne fucked up.
This has been a hot topic on the internet all day since the news broke, so I'll add my two cents.
Like a lot of people, I'm kinda disappointed Lil Wayne didn't get the opportunity to headline the 2025 Super Bowl. Yeah he can still be brought out, but I don't think it would hit the same being a special guest.
Outside of the fact that it's held in his hometown of New Orleans that's rich in tradition, it's also the 25th anniversary of Lil Wayne's solo career debut. It was the perfect storm to celebrate Wayne's legacy as one of the all-time greats in music and from that city.
Part of the reason Jay-Z took the job with the NFL as the halftime show curator was to give more artists the opportunity to headline who wouldn't even get a consideration before his arrival. Especially the Hip Hop artists.
Kendrick Lamar already headlined the Super Bowl in 2022 alongside Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent & Mary J. Blige in LA.
I don't hate that Kendrick is doing it again so soon. He's a good performer with an amazing stage presentation. So I'm really looking forward to what he has up his sleeve. But I don't think he should be a top priority over some other artists like Wayne. And considering the next two Super Bowls after 2025 is in California and Kendrick will drop his next album around that time, it would've made more sense letting him wait another year.
In general, as a fan, I'm so tired of missed opportunities of potential legendary moments. But hey, all will be forgotten when Kendrick kills it like we know he will and Wayne gets his Super Bowl moment in next few years.

part one of the playlist series
smut, comedy, fluff, college + fuckgirl au
Tumblr media
a dinner date with johnny suh led to you indulging yourself in him, and perhaps, provided further incentive for you in pursuing deeper relationships with others once more.
►listen to it’s a vibe - 2 chainz, body language - big sean, like i want you - giveon
Tumblr media
“Finally y/n has some time to see me, huh?” Johnny teases you as he settles on the seat across yours in a dimly lit diner.
“Hey, don’t make it sound like that,” You scoff, breaking into a wide smile.
“It’s just what it is, y/n, with you being in demand and all,” He says offhandedly as he starts browsing the menu.
You could only lightly chuckle at his remark, Johnny’s always been such a good conversationalist, and you find that his tendency to lean towards playful, flirty banter too compatible to leave alone. That’s how you finally decide to take up his offer on a dinner date despite mostly preferring to stay cooped up at home.
“How you been?” He asks you after maintaining a somewhat lasting gaze on you.
“How have I been? I’ve been alright, I guess—”
“Yeah thought summer camp did a huge number on you, you barely could walk to the bus after two nights of living it up and partying, heh. Remember Mina helping you walk. Great look on you by the way, but I was just a little concerned at the end. Maybe just a tad.” He lightly jokes, but you actually do sense his concern from the gentle tone of his voice.
You burst out in laughter from the utter embarrassment that all that really did happen in summer camp. Damn, you truly let yourself go that time.
“I’m all good, dude, don’t worry. Been through worse when I’m drunk,” You say matter-of-factly.
“…Not sure if I should be concerned or relieved, but I’ll take it.” Johnny chuckles.
You scoff, shaking your head. “So, we ordering or what?”
“Oh, yeah, so I’m assuming you’d be good with drinks too tonight?” He asks.
“Yeah, I’m down.” You respond.
“Cool. Let’s keep it under control this time, don’t want you puking five times a day like last time—”
“Oh my god, shut the fuck up, please,” You say, covering your face from the embarrassment, albeit being unable to suppress your laughter in utter disbelief of your own antics.
“It’s all good, y/n, you’s always a party,”
“Oh god,” You sigh out, in the midst of your chuckling.
Tumblr media
After around two hours of eating lightly and drinking copious amounts of alcohol, you both find yourself mildly intoxicated as a result. Your conversations gradually become considerably more open and candid in nature, and it’s become of a harder task to keep your inner thoughts from pouring out in your exchanges with each other.
“Nah, but I really can’t believe she said that about you,” You say a little loudly, earning some attention from the customers near you two.
“Yeah, dude, like, she wanted to collect all the summer camp dudes like pokemans or something,” He says, chuckling, faint whiskers forming on his cheeks.
“That’s kinda fucked… That’d be objectifying y’all too. Like, I’m all for women’s rights and feminism and all, but same goes for you guys too, you know? You don’t deserve that shit,” You say in complete frankness, inhibitions nowhere in sight.
“…Thanks, y/n. That actually means a lot though. You a sweet gal, you know that?” He says half-jokingly.
“’A sweet gal’ what, are we in the 1950’s?” You say, laughing.
“Well, I mean if we were in the 50’s I’d still ask your ass on a date, that’s for sure,”
You squeeze your eyes shut, scrunching your nose as you vaguely pull a wide smile, sipping on your pint of beer.
“Yeah, I like spending time with you too,” You finally respond after placing your beer back on its coaster.
“Damn, thought I was gonna be left hanging there, phew,” He says, placing a hand on his chest to comedically exaggerate his relief.
“Coming on pretty strong, are you now, huh?” You say as you take a fry from one of the plates, munching on it.
“Yeah, I don’t know, sometimes it just feels like we gotta bridge that gap, yknow?”
“What gap?” You say, taking another fry from the plate.
“I don’t know, I just feel like, I gotta establish that we’re moving to the next step, you feel?”
“I mean, okay, yeah, I guess,” You respond, pupils lightly wavering.
For once in this exchange, Johnny sighs out, the brief silence making you look up to him in question.
“You know, y/n, I think you’re really attractive.” He finally says, lazily looking at you with heavy-lidded eyes.
“I mean, yeah, I think so too. Otherwise I wouldn’t be here.” You respond simply.
“What, you think you’re really attractive too?” He jokes, successfully defusing the slight tension that’s built up.
Laughter bubbles from your chest. “Nah, nah, dude, you’re attractive. I think you’re cool. I think we get along really well.” You correct yourself.
“Yeah? You think so?” He asks you.
“Dude, what’s with you, why do you need me to reassure you, isn’t it so obvious,” You ask in the midst of your chuckles.
Johnny just raises his hands in response, “I don’t know, you just never know, you know.”
Even though you’ve both carried your conversations in a lighter tone thus far, you nonetheless sense his feelings of uncertainty. And you’ve come to the slight realization that you’re probably not providing the responses he might specifically want.
“I don’t know dude, I’m really just taking it slow with these things, you know,” You say, casually taking another sip from your beer.
“And what does that mean, y/n?” He asks, also taking a sip from his pint.
“Like, you’re obviously really attractive to me, but when it comes to feelings, I’d like to think I’m a little slow to warm up these days. Because of this and that,” You explain.
“Oh, yeah, I’m chill with that too. I’m just worried I’d be taking you hostage with my eagerness to get to know you more than just a friend, possibly, you know?” He responds honestly.
“Oh, no, I’m down for, whatever, you know. Kind of, whatever,” You say, laughing at your attempts to put your own thoughts together.
Johnny laughs at you endearingly. “y/n, I’m also still figuring shit out, don’t worry. Like I’m not one to commit to feelings or whatever right away either, I honestly just hate if I feel like I’m feeling this insane chemistry one sidedly, you get me?”
You shake your head to physically shake off your feelings of confusion. “Yeah, okay, gotcha. Just know that, you know, if you ever ask me to hook up with you, I’d be down. That’s where I’m at, I’d say. You know, if ever you’d be good with that.”
Johnny smirks, eyes slightly widened. “Damn. Am I just a booty call to you now then?”
You laugh at his remark. “Dude, you know what I mean, come on.”
“Yeah, yeah, I do. That sounds more than good to me,” He scoffs, finally sinking into his seat relaxedly, all while smiling warmly at you.
Tumblr media
As the night deepens, Johnny finds his hands on your waist, pushing you against the door to his apartment flat. Your hands find home on back of his neck, linked together and tugging slightly at his long brown locks. You’ve been kissing each other for a good few minutes ever since you both found yourselves alone in the elevator ride to his floor. You moan softly as he captures your lip in between his teeth, then briefly sucking on your lip to soothe the slight, yet pleasurable pain. He starts peppering kisses down your neck, firmly sucking on a sensitive spot, causing your eyes to roll back ever so slightly. Hearing your breathy moans gradually increase in volume, Johnny tightens his grip against your waist, digging his digits into your exposed skin, slightly riding your body-hugging top upwards. You were about to move to reciprocate his touches, when you notice rustling sounds from the elevator area, and you both knowingly look at each other. In what seems like the speed of light, Johnny takes out his keys from his pockets, before finally unlocking his door and letting you both in in a stumbling mess.
The moment the door closes, Johnny captures your lips in a heated kiss, firmly pinning you against the walls of his narrow hallway. You feel your whole body weaken in his grip, as he continues to trail hot kisses down your collarbone to the dip of your breasts. Unable to move your upper body, you nudge your knee against his hardened bulge, causing him to groan as he continues to slip the straps of your top down your shoulders, effectively exposing your chest. He teases you by peppering soft kisses around your nipple, causing you to squirm against his hold, as he’s purposefully avoiding your sensitive spot. You moan needily for more of his touches, and Johnny hums in response, continuing his ministrations against your breasts. He pauses to take a look at you between the long strands of his hair, the shadows further deepening the intensity of his gaze. He takes a brief gander at your desperate reactions, before smirking to himself in satisfaction. He finally takes your nipple into his mouth, causing you to whine against the touch—tugging his hair harder and jerking your knee against his bulge in response. He growls in response, before taking your hips to swiftly lift you up in a princess carry.
He carries you towards his bed as if you weigh as light as a feather, throwing you onto the surface with gentle force. He impatiently takes off his shirt, revealing the incredible musculature that you’ve always felt above layers of clothing. You can’t help but gaze at the glaring size of his toned biceps, feeling your drool seeping out of your lips a little. You shift your sights towards his abs, and you could see, perfect six packs sculpted onto the surface, as if the gods were to do that last-minute in an attempt to create the most sexually stimulating visuals for you. But no. Johnny probably just spends time in the gym. A whole lot, you might add.
“Like what you see, baby?” He asks you with a smirk, noticing you taken off guard.
“Damn. Spending time in the gym really doing you good, John.” You finally say after somewhat managing to come back to your senses.
“That’s what I’d like to hear, babe,” He says, before moving his way closer to you on the bed, eventually towering over your body with his gargantuan figure.
He kisses your lips gently whilst caging you against the pillowy surface of the mattress, allowing you to place your hands against his arms. Desperate to take in more of the warmth radiating off of his body, you lightly squeeze the surface of his skin as the feel and texture of his distinct muscles continue to pour liquid fire in your belly. You sigh onto the kiss, allowing the entrance of his heated tongue into your mouth. As your lips and tongue continue to entangle itself with each other, teeth lightly clashing, you feel the featherlight touch of his fingers slowly go lower and lower on your body, until it reaches the waistband of your skirt. He pushes your skirt down to your knees with little to no effort, before quickly slipping a finger into your panties. Your breath hitches at the action, and you notice him stop kissing you, choosing instead to observe your reactions with heavy-lidded eyes whilst wearing a slight smirk. After some moments of teasing around your entrance, he finally pushes a finger into you, causing you to take a sharp inhale, as Johnny gazes over your reaction amusedly.
“Damn, so wet for me, baby,” He drawls, finger prodding your insides, as he maintains his sights on your face. You let out a strangled mewl, before he lodges a second finger into you without any warning, allowing a soft guttural moan to pass your lips right afterwards.
“…Ugh, John, your fingers are so fucking.. thick,” You managed to say in between broken breaths.
“Wait until you see the real thing baby, you in for a real surprise,” He says slightly comically, suddenly taking his fingers out of your insides, earning a surprised sigh from you both from the shift in mood and the abrupt retraction of his digits. You finally let out a hearty chuckle from his whimsical remark, before observing how he keeps his gaze heavy on yours as he sucks his fingers fresh off of your folds.
“…Mmmm, never told me you’d taste this sweet,” He hums.
“Pfff, haha, alright, that’s kinda hot.” You respond honestly, albeit still quite humored.
He suddenly forcibly takes your black, skin-tight midi skirt down from your knees, along with your panties, earning a startled yelp from you. He bunches the skirt up with one hand, taking your arm with the other, and continues to tie your wrists above your head with your skirt.
“….Damn, okay,” You mutter in response, feeling your core heat up in anticipation. You rub your thighs against each other to soothe the need for any friction in between your legs, before Johnny rests his large palms on both your thighs to stop you. You look up at his face, only finding him wearing a playful smirk on his face.
He snakes his palms towards the bottom of your hips, before gently hoisting your legs upwards, propping them firmly on his broad shoulders. You feel him gripping your legs firmly, his muscles bulging from the slight force, as he digs his fingernails onto your exposed flesh. He looks at you with a hungered gaze, before moving slightly forward to lightly suck on the skin of your thigh, teeth and tongue grazing your delicate skin. You whimper lightly at his touches, feeling limp from the helpless state you’ve been reduced to.
He lines his crotch with your entrance, before noticing that he has yet to unzip his pants. He quickly fondles with the zipper to his jeans, swiftly freeing his hardened member from the confines of both his jeans and his briefs, tossing his clothes onto the general direction of the floor, before reassuming the position he was at prior. Your jaw slackens at the sheer size and girth of his rock-hard length, tip reddened and angry, seemingly ready to burst at any time.
“Oh… F.. Fuck,” You mutter to yourself, not noticing that you’ve done so out loud.
He looks at you through his loose strands of hair, smirking once you’ve met his eyes. “You ready for me, babe?”
“I mean… Fuck, yeah… But…. Will it fit though?” You ask, genuinely puzzled.
He scoffs, “I mean we’ll just have to see if it does. Don’t think you could get any wetter than that,”
You blink, still amazed at the sheer size he’s sporting. “…Shit.., yeah, come here baby,”
He moves to gently lift your hips, aligning it with his length, before taking a brief look at your face for any confirmation. You let out quickened breaths in immense anticipation and a dash of slight fear—the good kind, you might add—and upon noticing this, Johnny touches his forehead with yours, smiling at you.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle with you,”
If you weren’t so distracted by his insane size and the fact that you’re about to be broken in by the large object coming at you in plain view, you would’ve really noticed the way your heart skipping a beat at his gesture.
You finally feel the tip of his member nudging your folds, followed by Johnny slowly moving his hips forwards in order to sink himself into you. You wince, feeling your insides completely stretched in ways you’ve never felt before, letting out a helpless, desperate whine. Noticing this, Johnny captures your lips in a brief, hot kiss, before firmly anchoring himself with his arms on the mattress to fully sheathe himself into you.
“F…Fuck, hold on, I feel so full—”
“Almost there baby,” He mutters, beads of sweat trailing down his forehead.
“..It’s not fully in yet?!” You breathily ask, not believing that he’s got more to go.
“…God, you’re so fucking tight,” He groans in between gritted teeth, and you notice the way his veins bulge even more prominently on his arms, him seemingly trying his best to go slowly for you.
His arms move to grip your legs resting on his shoulders, in an attempt to hold himself from lodging his length too quickly into you. You finally feel the rest of his girth splitting you open and filling you up in your absolute depths, and you could only let out a strangled, guttural moan as he finally buries himself into you.
“..We in?” You ask, panting and heaving from the fullness.
“We in, balls deep.” He responds in between ragged breaths.
You were about to chuckle when you feel him slowly drag his length from your folds, making your eyes roll back, your own hands gripping each other in the confines of your skirt.
“God, baby, you’re taking me in so well,” He gasps to himself.
“…I.. I sure hope so,” You pant breathily, trying not to come undone with the way he’s filling you up to the brim.
He pushes his hips forward in a quick snap, drawing a throaty whimper from you.
“Sorry, I can’t help it—you feel too good,”
You respond in an incoherent string of moans and whimpers, as he decides to continue assaulting your pussy with an inconceivable speed given his unbelievable length. Your legs quiver and your toes curl from the way he’s hitting all your sensitive spots with each stroke. You’ve never felt this good before, you couldn’t believe you hadn’t fucked him any earlier. As he angles your hips to fuck you even deeper, your legs still hoisted on top of his shoulders, you quickly feel the contents of your brain replaced with white noise, thoughts only gathering in the way Johnny’s cock making you feel all stretched out, your limbs weakened from total loss of control. You feel so much pleasure being this dominated by Johnny, by Johnny’s tall, muscular figure, by Johnny’s burly cock. His cock, his damned thick cock filling you up with each stroke. As he continues to fuck you senseless, gripping on your legs sure to leave bruises the next day, your eyes roll back even further and your vocal cords let out unintelligible noises, while tears begin to form on the ends of your eyes from being fucked so good without being let up even for a second.
He drops down to kiss you, tongues and teeth clashing, effectively muffling your moans as he continues to stretch the depths of your sensitive pussy. He takes one arm, gripping your wrists on top of your head harder as to further emphasize the power dynamics in this situation. You feel tears stream down your face as you continued to be assaulted in your helplessness, yet feeling your entire body bloom with heated pleasure.
“You good, baby?” He asks in between pants, swiping a tear from your left eye with his thumb.
“..I-I’m good, i-it just feels too good..,” You manage to whine out in between broken breaths.
“..Fuck,” He breathes out.
Then without so much of a warning, he takes your hips with both of his arms, flipping you over on all fours, earning a startled whine from you from the loss of his fullness as well as the sudden change of position in your body.
He lightly grasps your head with one hand, pushing it downwards against the mattress, while he hastily pushes his member against your folds, once again filling you up with the fullness you’ve come to miss for a brief moment. You elicit a throaty groan from the feel, feeling your body once again experience that familiar loss of power that comes from being dominated by him. He fucks you roughly and quickly, groaning with each thrust, and you once again feel your consciousness rapidly slipping from your frail grasp. His hands move to your breasts, allowing him to fuck your brains out while firmly grasping onto them, completely making you feel like you’ve been reduced to nothing more than his personal plaything.
“Fuck, baby, I’m close, Fuck—”
“Cum on my back, John, fucking paint me white,” You cry against the mattress, slightly sobbing with tears painting your cheeks from the incredible pleasure.
The moment you feel warmness trickle down your back, you couldn’t recall any other time in your life that you’ve been made to feel this good. You reach your own high almost at the same time, feeling yourself black out a little—the only thing you’ve managed to feel with your senses is your entire body quivering, the lasting imprints of pleasure left from Johnny’s cock, and your own delicious wetness you’ve grown to feel between your thighs.
You’ve finally come back to your senses when you discovered that Johnny has taken the time to clean yourselves up while you lay on his bed motionless for a good several minutes. He lays on the bed close to you, gently tucking strands of your hair behind your ear.
“..You alright?” He asks you with a slight concerned tone, eyes fixed on your expression.
“…Yeah… Yeah, fuck yeah, I’m alright, John…. I’m great…” You mutter with a smile, eyes closed, stretching your body to revel in the bliss you’re feeling post-intercourse.
He chuckles, looking at you basking in the pleasure still. “I’m glad. Cause it felt really good to me. Was kinda scared I’d break you there,”
“Are you serious? You didn’t even give me a second to breathe, John, don’t give me that,” You say with a smile on your face.
Hearty laughter bubbles up from his chest, and you’d be lying if the sight of him looking all sweaty, sexy, and incredibly cute didn’t cause a slight skip in the way your heart is beating. You could only fake pout as a response, not too sure how to respond to him, not too sure, perhaps, how to respond to yourself.
He quickly ruffles your hair, before placing a chaste peck on the tip of your nose.
“You were gripping me so tight, though, don’t lie, you wanted it as much as I did, too,” He says teasingly, looking at you straight in the eyes.
You roll your eyes in response, not being able to suppress the smile breaking onto your lips.
“Shut up. It’s been a while for me. And didn’t know you were sporting a monster cock,”
“y/n! Language!” He calls out to you teasingly, yet not being able to stop himself from laughing, whiskers forming on his cheeks.
“Really, John? After all that?” You ask, chuckling with him.
“I know this seems a little generalizing, but thought you’d have more action. I mean. You’s sexy. Just curious though. Was it a matter of choice or…?”
You gently push Johnny’s head with your hand in a joking manner. “Dude, cmon,”
“Haha, sorry, sorry, nah, it was just a question, you’re obviously free to answer or not,” He says offhandedly while chuckling.
You scrunch up your face for a moment to deliberate whether or not you want to open up a little more. Something that you’ve come to know about yourself—that it’s much easier to open your legs to someone you’re attracted to rather than to pry open the crevices of your heart. But you see how Johnny’s genuinely attracted to you. Not your body, not you as an object, you. Even as a friend, even as anything. You consider that it wouldn’t be a bad idea trying to make yourself more emotionally open, because otherwise you wouldn’t even take the step to do it yourself, with no one else prompting you to do so.
“It’s a trust thing—” You start, and Johnny’s sights gently snap onto you, winning his complete attention. “I’ve been through relationships and hookups that completely shat on my feelings of trust, you know. Long story short, dudes have made me feel like an object that guarantee their feelings of security and power, nothing more, nothing less.... You know how things could go. It’s like my mental health didn’t really matter—”
You shift your gaze to Johnny, taken aback from the undivided attention he’s giving you and the lack of surprise he exhibits in the sudden shift of your tone.
“…And I’ve been wanting to work on it, but the more I try, the more it eludes me, I guess. The more I try to get to know more people, the more I realize the method I’m doing it isn’t the right way. I keep trying to welcome people in, but they could only come as far as the front door. It’s like trust is a paper, and once it’s been crumpled, it’s damn near impossible to get it as smooth as before.”
Johnny keeps his gaze still as you keep trying to explain yourself, prying some of the truths open from the depths of your heart.
“That’s why I just found relief in knowing that if, from the start, I’ve only made it known to others that the front door is as far as they’re gonna go, I think it’ll be alright. No one’s gonna be hurt big time, or anything like that—so that’s where you came in, I guess. If that made sense.” You finish.
He smiles at you, and looking into his warm brown eyes, you really do feel like you’ve found comfort in him. He makes you feel safe, as if you’ll be fine, just the way you are, the way you want to be—however you choose to be.
“Thank you for opening up to me, y/n, must’ve been a big step there,” He says gently, ruffling your hair with affection.
“Thank you for making me feel safe enough to, John, it really does mean a lot to me.” You respond with a big smile, your eyes turning into beautiful crescents. A slight warm blush creeps onto Johnny’s cheeks, and he averts his eyes for once in this conversation, being taken aback from the sight of you.
He clears his throat, managing a slight smile. “That’s alright, I care about you, y/n, that’s what friends do,”
You smile from the unconditional comfort you’ve been allowed to feel around him.
“I get it though. Trust really is a rickety thing. I’ve been there too, so, I do get it. But you know, what? What better way to kick this human dilemma in the ass than to get to know more good people around you. Or at least, try to, I suppose.” He says lightly.
You narrow your eyes, unsure of what he really means. “What are you proposing..?”
“My birthday’s coming.” He responds.
“Oh. Okay, well, happy almost birthday! I guess—”
“I’m holding a party on this apartment’s rooftop on the day of. I’ll be inviting some good company. Some people from the camp—Mark would be there. You do know Mark, right?”
You narrow your eyes once more, trying to fetch an incredibly vague memory of a “Mark Lee” in your memories from within the summer camp. Some hints of a sprained leg, a hasty need to connect—you decide that yeah, you do perhaps know him. Not that well at all, though.
“Or is your 3-day streak still messing with your memories?” He teases, whiskers apparent.
“Hey!! I’m not that bad… Or maybe I am. I barely remember him. Dang..” You say, palming your own face.
“You literally had a moment when you just talked to him in the corner during one of the nights. Too hammered, I take it,” He says, laughing.
“Yeah, shit. I guess I’ll have time then to refresh my memory a little. But really though, thanks a lot for inviting me, it’d be cool if I could come.” You say with a smile. “Is it gonna be a big party?”
“No, not really. Just inviting people I feel would be cool to celebrate my birthday with,” He says, smiling back at you.
“Awe, I’m cool to you? Haha thanks Johnny boy!” You say whimsically while wearing a smirk.
“Johnny boy, alright, that’s a new one,” He chuckles. “Damn, of course I’d think you’re cool, I literally pried your pussy and heart open in one go wassup,”
You pinch the bridge of your nose to recoil from Johnny’s sense of humor you could never really get used to. In a good way, you might add.
“Sure, alright, no objections there.”

She’s Mine• j. kotkaniemi
(You wear revealing clothes that Jesperi doesn’t like, but he supports. But what he doesn’t support is when his teammates hit on you)
Warning(s): Language
I know I did one like this, but I’m bored and can’t think
Song Inspired By: My Chick Bad by Ludacris
Tumblr media
“This look okay?” I asked Jesperi and pull my dress down to show my curves more and more of my tits, he looked me up and down with a sigh.
He rolled his eyes then looks at me, “What do you mean? You’re barely wearing clothes!” He says pointing to my body.
“Sorry that I’m confident.” I scoffed and then walk away from him, “Let’s go.” I sass and he rolled his eyes before running after me and then going to the drivers side.
I scroll through Instagram the whole car ride and ignore Jesperi’s hand on my thigh, “Baby, we’re here!” He says and I got out.
“I wanted to open your door for you.” He says and I look at the door then at him, “Oops.” I said and he rolls his eyes before grabbing ahold of my hand before taking me inside the bar.
We step in and I let go of Jesperi’s hand then run over to the WAGS, “Hey girls!” I said and they all smiled, “Hey Y/n, you look sexy as fuck!” Angela Price says to me.
“Thanks, hun. You guys all do too.” I say and they all chuckled, “Let’s go get drinks now.” July Petry says and they all holler before we go to the bar.
I sway my hips with my walk and lean over the bar, the bartender turns around and looked me up and down with a smirk.
“Good evening girls, what can I get y’all?” He asked and I hum, “A round of shots for me and my girls.” I say and he winks at me.
I rolled my eyes, but I could take this as an opportunity. “Watch this.” I whispered to the girls, I pull my dress down more.
“Shit, I forgot my wallet at home. I’m sorry.” I said and he looks at me, “Oh then these are free for you, I don’t want you to leave.” He winked and I laugh softly.
He hands me the tray of shots and we go back to the table, but the one with the guys. “I want to be you, girl!” Tate says and I smiled at her.
“What did she do?” Jesperi asked and I sighed, “Used my attributes to get free drinks.” I winked at all the guys.
Jesperi rolls his eyes, “Oh you mean your tits!” Brendan Gallagher says, “Yes, Gally. She means her tits.” Jesperi snapped and I bit my lip.
“You got to admit, bro. She has amazing tits.” Brendan says and all the guys, plus girls nod. “I know she does! She’s MY girlfriend.” He grits his teeth in my direction.
I put my arm around his waist, “I got us all free shots though!” I laughed. “Hell yeah.” Carey says and I smiled at him.
“Let’s drink to Y/n’s amazing body!” Angela says and I laughed, everyone grabs their shots and held it up before clinking it together. “To Y/n’s amazing body!” They all say.
Jesperi on the other hand did not say it, he just glared at all the guys. “That was an amazing drink!” I said with a laugh.
“I wanna dance.” I said and the girls all nod, “You boys wanna dance?” I asked, “No.” They say. “Awe come on guys!” Julie says and I pout.
I grab Jesperi’s hand, “Come on, babe. Dance with us!” I said and then do a puppy face, “No.” He says and I rolled my eyes.
“Whatever girls, it’s just gonna be us.” I say and they all boo, “It’s fine us girls are elite anyways.” Angela says, challenging her husband but he didn’t care and chose to keep drinking his beer.
I sighed and we walk to the jukebox, I put my money in and then chose the song ‘Wobble by V.I.C’, the girls all shout and they begin dancing.
“Let’s take another shot, girls!” I said and we walk back to the table and downed our shots then walk back to the dance floor.
Jesperi and I pregamed a little, me more than him, before we came to the bar so that’s how I was so drunk. “I got patron in my cup, and I don’t give a fuck the baddest bitch in the club right here!” We all sang.
“Yes bitch!” I said as Angela was twerking and I start slapping her ass, “May I dance with y’all?” A blonde girl asked and I nod, “Yes, you may.” I say with a smile.
She politely thanks me then we all start dancing, I felt a body against me and I turn to see it was Julie. We were grinding and I began ‘twerkin’ on her, she slapped my ass as I dipped it low on her.
“You two are dumb as fuck!” Angela laughs and we both laugh too, I move away from them and bend over a table to shake my ass.
The bartender guy, the guys, and random men were staring at me. “Yes my bitch has a fatty!” Angela says and this time she slaps my ass.
“Aye, aye, aye!” All the girls say as I get low with it, the song ended and I boo. “What song should I play next?” I asked.
The girls all requested ‘Birthday Song by 2 Chainz’ and I gladly played it, “More shots?” I asked the girls they nod.
“Hey whats your name?” I asked the girl from earlier, she looks at me. “My names Abby.” The girl says and I smiled. “You’d be perfect for my friend Brendan.” I say.
She laughs then we walked back to the table and got our drinks, I hand Abby one and she downs it. “Thanks.” She says and I nod.
“Anytime, girly. That’s Brendan.” I said and point to him talking to Jesperi, “He’s talking to my boyfriend, Jesperi.” I said and she nods.
Brendan and Jes look our way, “Boys this is Abby.” I introduce her, they all wave with excepting smiles. She blushed and waves back.
“Be nice to her. She’s my new bestie.” I laughed and then look at her, “Want my number?” I asked and she nods before putting it in her phone.
I smiled and hand Jesperi back my phone, “Keep it safe, baby. Love you.” I said and he pecks my lips. “I love you too, princess.” He says and then slaps my ass as I walk away.
“Okay, bad bitties let’s dance!” I say and we all began dancing again, I felt someone against me and expected it to be Julie so I kept dancing on her.
As I kept dancing, I felt a hand around my waist. “Damn babygirl.” A man says and I turn around to see the bartender.
“Get off of me!” I said and push him off of me, “Why? You were CLEARLY into me earlier.” He says and I shook my head.
He shrugged and tried to get me to keep dancing with him, “Get away from her!” Angela says and he looked her up and down.
“No, bitch.” He says and I gasped, “I swear I’ll kill you, don’t ducking talk to my friend like that!” I said and he smirks.
“Sassy. I like it.” He winks and grinds his hard dick on me, “Stop!” I yelled and that caught the attention from the guys.
They all get up and Jesperi speed walks over to where I was having trouble. “She said get off of her.” He says, hovering over the guy.
“Who the hell are you?” He asked, folding his arm over his chest. “Her boyfriend, who are you?” Jesperi asked.
The bartender laughed, “A guy who was about to take your girl home.” He says and slapped my ass, I gasp and Jesperi pushed him with a lot of force.
“Get the hell away from the girls now, you creep.” Jesperi says, “Or what?” He asked and Jesperi grins at him before slamming his fist in the guys face.
I gasped and back up into Brendan arms, “Jes, stop!” I said and he had no mercy on this guy. “You’re gonna kill him, fucking stop!” I cried and he sighed.
“Stay the fuck away from my girl.” Jesperi spat and he grabs my arm before he forces me outside, “Never wear that again.” He growled and took us home.

Review: Travi$ Scott ‘Owl Pharaoh’
Tumblr media
Travi$ Scott, who recently signed to Hustle Gang, dropped his mixtape ‘Owl Pharaoh’ yesterday. The fact that T.I. thought he was worthy enough to be signed to Grand Hustle was enough for me to know that this was one talented rapper. The singles he has already released confirmed this but ‘Owl Pharaoh’ has cemented that opinion of mine.
The single ‘Upper Echelon’ featuring T.I. and 2 Chainz is one of the best joints on the tape but there is plenty of other good stuff on it. ‘Uptown’ with A$AP Ferg has some excellent beats and an awesome flow from both rappers. ‘Hell of a Night’ is slightly more of a mellow number and Travi$ sounds great on it. ‘Dance on the Moon’ featuring Theophilus London and Paul Wall has a hypnotic element, whilst ‘Drive’ is notable especially because it features beautiful vocals from James Fauntleroy.
There aren’t any tracks on this album that I can honestly say are bad or not that good. Hustle Gang or not, I am very impressed with ‘Owl Pharaoh’ and look forward to hearing a lot more from Travi$ Scott in the near future.

PEMDAS - Special Year-End Edition - Albums
I love end of year lists because I like consensus, rankings and numbers. But consensus is all based on who gets to rank, and the people who get the most access to major publication rankings are white men, so the numbers are tainted by white supremacy, misogyny, and many other forms of bigotry.
Which makes it even more interesting to see what gets ranked where.
Here’s a Google Sheet I made of all the lists and I created a formula that basically measures how many times an album placed on a list as well as how high it placed on that list. I’m going to keep updating this list as it’s not done, but it’s fun to play around with right now!
According to my formula and the critics, the top 10 albums of 2020 (in order) are: 
Tumblr media
#1: Fetch the Bolt Cutters •• Fiona Apple
Tumblr media
#2: RTJ4 •• Run the Jewels
Tumblr media
#3: folklore •• Taylor Swift
Tumblr media
#4: Future Nostalgia •• Dua Lipa
Tumblr media
#5: Punisher •• Phoebe Bridgers
Tumblr media
#6: Set My Heart on Fire Immediately •• Perfume Genius
Tumblr media
#7: Saint Cloud •• Waxahatchee
Tumblr media
#8: Heaven to a Tortured Mind •• Yves Tumor
Tumblr media
#9: Women in Music Pt. III •• HAIM
Tumblr media
#10: Rough and Rowdy Ways •• Bob Dylan
I also have a fun, unranked albums list brewing. I’ll release that at the very end of the year.

Lil Baby Claims Atlanta is the Hub for Hip-Hop
Tumblr media
Lil Baby performed at the LA3C festival in Los Angeles this past weekend.  It was the first festival for the LA3C, an organization driven to celebrate the creativity and culture of the city of Los Angeles, and the It’s Only Me rapper was the headliner. Snoop Dogg and Kyle were the other rappers to hit the festival stage.  During the festival, he was asked about where hip-hop was as a genre right now. He responded by giving a big praise to Atlanta, his hometown. “As far as culture, I feel like I been feeling.  Atlanta is like the ruler of the culture as far as Hip Hop...” Lil Baby told Billboard magazine. Atlanta is Hip-Hop Lil Baby does have a point here.  Atlanta has been home to some of the hottest artists out right now.  Future, Young Thug, 21 Savage, Quavo, Offset, Gunna, Playboi Carti, Latto, and J.I.D. all hail from Atlanta!  Future’s album I NEVER LIKED YOU is up for a Grammy for Best Rap Album this year and is his eighth number one album.  Young Thug is up for a Grammy along with Gunna for their song “Pushin P”. https://twitter.com/nowhiphopnews_/status/1599442174885494784?s=46&t=xsJ5wtJ6Q0y5nfg_7xEiSQ Playboi Carti is known for his live performances, and he has already been tapped by Rolling Loud to be the headliner for their California festival next year.  Latto is up and coming as she has snagged a Grammy nominee for Best New Artist.  J.I.D. ‘s album The Forever Story is regarded as one of the best albums of this year!  And of course, Atlanta is home to many rap legends.  T.I., Ludacris, Jeezy, OutKast, 2 Chainz, Gucci Mane, Killer Mike, and Jermaine Dupri are all products of Atlanta.  They are all still making music today after all these years! The South Runs It Lil Baby might be right about Atlanta being the “ruler of the culture” when you think about all the talent, past and present.  The South has been holding hip-hop down for years now, with Atlanta being at the forefront.  Memphis has been picking it up lately with all the new and exciting artists coming out of there.  And Florida has always had someone to represent.  It must be something in the water in the South.  Will Atlanta ever lose the crown?  If Lil Baby is around, I doubt it.

If you are confused as to how this process goes, please check your email inbox for emails Mod has sent concerning the full details on how to claim a fic.
For those not participating in this event, please feel free to read through the summaries as well to get a sneak peek of what our Writers have been working on!
Okay, that’s enough talking from Mod. Here are this event’s fics!!!
FIC #1 : CLAIMED!!!
He shuffles to the door, reaching for his gun just in case before he pulls it open, startling the short man who was waiting on the other side.
"Goddammit, Burger!" Vang0 hisses, leaning a little closer, eyes darting to the sides. "Can I come in?" He asks bluntly, as if they had been talking just a couple minutes ago and this wasn't their first chat in about a week. We're not that codependent.
"Wh- why are you out this late? And with a bag?" He frowns when he sees the uncharacteristic plain green duffle bag hanging from Vang0's shoulder, completely contrasting with the man's clothes, even if this time he went for more subdued colors.
"Let me in and I'll tell you," the blonde retorts as he puts a foot in the corner, ready to push himself inside as soon as Burger gives him room for it.
And Burger can't say no, has never been able to say no to Vang0, so he just rolls to the side and lets Vang0 in before slamming the door closed again.
"Why are you here? Not that I don't appreciate ya visiting, just... it's late and yer carrying a bag," he points out, tilting his head a little. "Y’know you can talk to me, Vang0, right?"
"Y-yeah, that's why I'm here, I-" he pauses, taking a deep breath "I got in trouble, I hacked into something I shouldn't have and I need to lay low for a while"
-
Vang0 Bang0 messed up, big time, he needs help to get off the radar for a while, and of course that his best friend Burger Chainz would help him, and a road trip seems to be the best way to make him drop from the face of earth until things have quieted down. But the empty roads bring nostalgia and an unearths feelings both of them thought deeply buried. They say that road trips change you, why should that be different in the cyberpunk future?
-
Vang0 Bang0/Burger Chainz, getting together fic, Teen rating, no ao3 warnings needed, maybe some minor canon violence. It's a slightly introspective fic, more focused on how Burger realizes some stuff and how he deals with it.

Vang0 doesn't remember his birthday. Or his age. Or his interests, his likes, his dislikes, the password to his CollegeBoard account.
(Well, one of those is less important than the others.)
That being said, Burger wants to throw him a birthday party. Dasha is interested, despite herself. A series of assumptions are made, some feelings are hurt, and some lessons are learned.
-
Ships: Vang0/Dasha/Burger if you squint but pretty much a gen fic
Rating: Probably G, bordering maybe on T for swearing
Sensitive content: Canon-typical amnesia, a little bit of angst, some oblique canon-typical gun mentions, maybe a panic attack later in the fic- I haven't quite decided if that's gonna happen or not yet?
Other info: It's a pretty lighthearted fic focusing on the relationship between the three of them! No AU, pretty much just comedy and fun all the way through. I haven't ironed out all the details of what's going to happen yet, but that's gonna stay pretty consistent- there'll be some angstier/less funny bits here and there, of course, though.

Vang0 chewed his lip, feeling uneasy.
“What’s up, friend? You’ve got a big ol’ frown on your face.”
Vang0 blushed. “I’m not- I’m just- thinking. I mean, Joltik usually travel with their mother Galvantula, and it’s unusual for them to be seen without one, so these ones might have been separated from their mother.”
Burger frowned. “Well, that ain’t good.”
Vang0 nodded. “And Galvantula can get very angry when separated from their young.”
Burger opened his mouth to speak, but was cut off by someone yelling loudly.
“BURGER! Burger, where the fuck are you!?”
Vang0 watched as Burger spun around and started towards the basement door.
“Burger!? Are you down here? There’s a huge fucking-”
“No, don’t come down-”
Burger was cut off as the door flew open, and someone catapulted into the basement.
Vang0 stared, eyes wide.
“Burger,” he said, “why the hell is Dapper Dasha in your house?”
-
Seven months ago, Vang0 woke up in a half-destroyed laboratory with no memories of his life before that. He's made something of a life for himself fixing people's technology, because he somehow knows how to do that really well.
And Burger Chainz is just another one of his clients. That is, until it turns out Burger's hiding ex-Pokemon Contest star Dapper Dasha in his house - who hasn't been seen in two years and just so happens to be Vang0's role model.
Vang0 definitely isn't freaking the fuck out. And he definitely isn't falling in love with Burger, either.

Vang0 Bang0/Burger Chainz. A Pokémon AU where Burger owns a farm, Dasha is an ex-contest star in hiding, and Vang0 has no clue what's going on. Rating: Teen. Warnings: mentions of blood and violence, nothing explicit

Vang0 Bang0 jumped in his seat as the van hit a bump in the road, speeding upon the old, graying highway. The trinkets they had collected over their various traveled crashed and banged, one almost hitting the window. The loud trinkets and music blaring from the car stereo didn’t phase Vang0. They weren’t sure where he was going, but it sure wasn’t home.
Vang0 wasn’t focused on the road, he was focused on something...else. It wasn’t the other cars; there weren’t any. Most people stayed in Night City, so the roads weren’t full a lot, he knew that. But this road doesn't have anything, anything that would ever prove that anyone had ever existed near here. Not even a bottle.
-    
After an eventful drive, Vang0 Bang0 finds themself on a beach with no discernable exits. No stairs, no ladders, not even a boat. Confused, Vang0 comes to terms with what he’s found in Night City, and what they’ve lost along the way. (Also they/he pronoun Vang0 rights)
-
There are no ships in this fic. I am likely to rate it Teen and Up audiences, since while there is no explicit or intentionally upsetting content, it might get a little sad at times. I’m not 100% sure about the exact direction my fic is going to go, there might be a car crash (not to graphically described, Vang0 is not hurt very badly, since this is [spoilers] a dream or metaphor about Vang0 coming to terms with memory loss). And since it is a dream sequence with no clear exit, this may be an unreality situation.

FIC # 5 : CLAIMED!!!
Upon Burger barging into Dasha’s bedroom and announcing that he got tick- stop screaming Vang0, it’s just me, got tickets to a film festival tonight, are you guys in, Vang0 informed him that they had “a job tonight, Burger, did you even check the zoogle calendar, we’ll go tomorrow or something,” and no, of course Burger hadn’t checked the calendar, that’s Dasha’s job, and sure we can get tickets for tomorrow too but the Winston Rider film is only showing tonight and I thought you guys might be interested -- “Winst- do you mean Winona Ryder?” -- and after about five minutes of schedule comparisons Dasha simply shoved Vang0 out of the bed and declared that she was going to the movie with Burger, Vang0 was finishing their job, and Burger was going to make her some coffee because “it’s too fucking early for this” even though personally, Burger thought 11:00am was a perfectly reasonable time to be awake -- he was probably missing something, or maybe Dasha had just been up late, Vang0 was definitely a blanket hog and Burger knew from experience that sharing a bed with them would be more likely to result in a semi-conscious tug of war than a decent night’s sleep -- so Vang0 got up to do their job and Burger went and made some coffee and Dasha relocated to the couch, where she downed the coffee and some eggs and promptly fell back asleep for another three hours.
-
Burger loved Dasha, of course he did, he loved spending time with her and he thought she was beautiful and the idea that they might be dating -- might have been dating for a while -- sat warm and comfortable in his chest, but, except, it just was that, he hadn’t realized that how they interacted might be how two people that were dating behaved, he was just hanging out with his friend, he did stuff like this with Vang0 all the ti- -- now wait, wait a second, now hang on just a second --
a.k.a. 5 times Burger missed the point +1 time he caught a clue

“What is this? What’s going on? Why am I dressed like I’m straight?” Vang0 hisses, gesturing to everything around him and the wrongness of it all.
“Seriously?” Candella rolls her eyes, unimpressed. “You couldn’t have scheduled your existential work breakdown until after our shift? You don’t see my lesbian ass complaining while I’m on the clock, do you?”
“I—What? Am I speaking another fucking language? You answered none of my questions!”
“Yeah because it’s 9am and the morning rush just ended so I do not have enough energy to indulge just,” Candella gestures at all of Vang0. “whatever is going on with you right now.”
“What’s going on with me right now is that I’ve found myself in a bougie caffeine establishment fever dream that just so happens to have the shittiest store playlist in the history of ever.” Vang0 says, bordering on manic as he looks up at the ancient speaker up in the corner of the shop. “Seriously, what is this terrible song?”
“Hey, Soul Sister by Train.” Candella still, amazingly, does not look alarmed or worried.
-
Or the one where Vang0 is a barista at Zero and One’s Cafe...except he’s not.
This isn’t his fucking job, this isn’t his fucking life, and it takes a quick look around the horrifyingly low tech coffee shop he’s in and the fact that he’s missing a USB port on his neck to be painfully aware that this isn’t his fucking universe. This is a 2010s over idealistic portrayal of adult mundanity that he and his friends are stuck in and Vang0 has to get them all out of this nightmare before he commits customer service acts of violence.
Bring it on, Coffee Shop AU. Bring. It. On
-
Dapper Dasha/Vang0 Bang0/Burger Chainz. An absurd existential romantic comedy where the trio somehow get transported into a Coffee Shop AU against their wills. Rating: Teen. Content warnings for slight absurd horror and canon typical violence.

“That guy in my english class,” Dasha could hear through the speakers the distinct sound of combat boots stepping on cement. What was Vang0 doing outside at this time, alone? “The one I told you about! Burger-” “The one you’ve been crushing on for months and you’re too much of a coward to ask out?” Dasha already knew everything about this guy, Vang0 saw him on the first day of senior year in his english class and he hadn’t shut up about him ever since. 5’10, large and muscular shoulders, nice to everyone and just dense enough that everytime he said something you would automatically think “wow… thank fuck you’re attractive,” but not in an irritating way, you know? Vang0 exhaled, which Dasha interpreted as a yes. “Well I couldn’t ask him out even if i wanted to,” “Huh?” Dasha could hear the cogs in her own brain turning, trying to process what was being said to her. “Because he’s dating a blonde g-” she heard Vang0 stop on his steps and his tone becoming more dry, “are you even listening to what I’m saying?” Dasha yawned audibly and tried sitting up again. This time she succeeded, “yeah, yeah, I’m listenin’. How did you find out about this and why did you decide to call me at nearly 2 am instead of just waiting until tomorrow?” “I followed them and I saw them talking.” “You’ve lost it.” - Dasha received a call from Vang0 at 1:47 am one saturday night, and everything went downhill from there. They were not friends, she couldn’t understand why Vang0 acted like they were, but they weren’t, because Dasha didn’t have any friends. Except that, when she sees Vang0 struggling, for the first time in 18 years of life she decides that maybe this one idiot is worth getting soft over. And so she helps him bleach his hair over a cup of coffee and a can of Spunky Monkey. Because why the fuck not. - Main pairing is platonic Vang0/Dasha, background ship is Vang0/Burger. The whole story is from Dasha’s POV. Genre is just a very typical teen romance story except that it’s focused more on platonic bonding rather than the actual romance. Vang0 calls Dasha late at night, tells her he wants to bleach his long dark curly hair and cut his bangs after seeing Burger with a blonde girl, and he goes to her place. She helps him do the deed in her bathroom (she’s still elite) as they realize how much they care about each other. Initially inspired by that one scene in Scott Pilgrim where Knives Chau dyes her hair. Rating: general audiences, content warnings: lots of swearing, implied addiction/addiction enabling, shoplifting mention. CLAIMING RESTRICTIONS: None

vang0 officially disappears on march 23rd, 2040. exact time unknown, but whatever conspires that morning takes place before burger wakes up.
if he’s being honest with himself; he’s seen it coming for a little while now. vang0 isn’t the routine type, he’s young and whip smart and drinks so much redbull that the stuff must pump through his veins.
burger’s an old dog. older than vang0 by at least 2 years, he’s sure. he doesn’t have much, and god doesn’t that sound cliche, but he’s stupid and optimistic- and really. he must’ve known somewhere that the kid wouldn’t stay. he’s got a nasty drug habit that burger cant support and a look in his eyes like he wants the world- burger cant even buy him a fake ID.
this happens sometimes, the coming and going. vang0’ll disappear for a week if he’s lucky, a month if he’s not, but never longer than that.
no use crying over spilled milk.
-
vang0 goes missing, burger velmently pretends nothing is wrong until he doesnt, and dasha has to pick up the pieces.
-
missing person fic, burger/dasha/vang0 implied, but nothing explicitly mentioned or talked about, drug use mentioned, mature, canon typical violence, kidnapping, and other canon typical shit- it is night city after all lmao, kind of introspective, alot of burger just thinking back on his relationship w vang0 and shit, but there is some plot as well ig

“Anyway, dude, what’s up? Or did you just come over for a cola because you ran out of your own?”
“Oh, right,” Vang0 says. He is still thinking about the man, and Dasha, and Dasha and that man, and Dasha’s long fingers and Dasha’s hair falling over her face as she purses her lips and blows upwards, her breath scattering strands of brown hair around her sharp cheekbones. “Um, there was something on the forum, I think - I think there’s a thing. For us. Should we call Burger?”
“Oh, Burger’s here,” Dasha says. “Somewhere. Burger!” she yells.
“Burger - but he spent the night?” Vang0 says, brain processing too slow somehow.
Dasha doesn’t respond.
“Did you -”
“Have a threesome?” Dasha asks, in her usual blunt way. Her face is pretty expressionless, eyes severe under the liner and blinking less than a person should, but Vang0 knows her pretty well, he can see the corners of her mouth turning up. That means she thinks something is funny. “I don’t think so. Burg!” she calls over her shoulder. “Did we?”
-
When Vang0 sees a JumpTrash post about vandalism at a club down town, he figures it will be an easy job for the trio - find out who did it, have Burger intimidate them, done. But things are more complicated than they seem, and the gang ends up drawn into a complex scheme involving the Brotherhood of the Screaming Abyss, conspiracies and hit men, and people from their past they thought were long gone. Along the way, they'll have to decide what they want out of this job - and what they want from each other....
-
This is basically an elaborate CAPER, with a bunch of feelings and shit thrown in. It's a job and then it's a crime story! Its kind of a noir? Can I write a noir? WE"LL FIND OUT. It's gonna be fairly long assuming I can get my act together and put in all i want to put in. Like every good story, it's got plot and whatnot but the plot is just a fulcrum around which to wrap some found family polyamory shit, baby. It's Vang0/Dasha/Burger, duh and it takes them a minute to get there but they'll get there! Its gonna have canon-typical violence, basically - none of the trio die or anything, but other people do, and there's blood. There's gonna be a sex scene because I'm not an AMATEUR. Drug use, too, but mostly in happy fun ways. I haven't fully sussed out some of the flashbacks, but probably some oblique references to past traumas, probably Vang0. Nothing explicit, no reliving events or anything. Also i'm 1000 years old, be warned!
