All Our Lives - Feysand Writing Circle

Hello,

I'm Shallyne and a few days ago I posted that I'd like to create a Feysand Writing Circle, and I'd like to a explain a few things.

How did this idea form?

A few months ago, I posted a little poem for an incoming fic called "All Our Lives" but maybe some of you realized I didn't continue this idea. The reason wasn't that I disliked the idea then but I had so many ideas and the overall idea has so much potential and my brain created half a fic and then jumped to the next idea. A few weeks ago I started playing with the idea to start a writing circle and when I stumbled upon All Our Lives again, I thought this was an amazing opportunity.

What is the original idea of All Our Lives?

The original idea was to create a fanfiction which chapters were pretty much just oneshots. Every chapter is Feysand in a different universe. The idea was that all the oneshots are Feyre and Rhysand in a different lifetime, their souls always finding back to each other.

How can I participate in this Writing Circle?

You got an idea and want your story to be part of the All Our Lives writing circle? That's amazing, I'm so glad! It's not hard, you just click on the title of this post or -> here <- and you will be transferred to the AO3 Feysand Writing Circle collection. There you can add your fic to the collection.

But you don't have an AO3 account or want to stay anonym? This is not a problem at all! You can send me your fic in my ask box or send me a message here on Tumblr, where I will give you my email-address to send me your fic. I will then post it on my account but of course I will mention you, or say that it was send by an anon, to post.

What are the rules?

The rules are simple!

Every fanfiction in this Writing Circle will be a oneshot

There is no time limit

The word count is up to you

Every oneshot will play in a different universe

Stay respectful to other participants! You don't have to like every idea but that doesn't mean you need to tell them.

What do you mean with "universe"?

When I say different universe I mean that the fics are supposed to play outside of the canon acotar universe. You are free to chose from almost any universe, as long as it's not harmful to any group of people. For example: Book Universes (Throne of glass, Howls Moving Castle, Classics, Shatter Me, The Cruel Prince, etc.,), Show and Movie Universes (MCU, Gilmore Girls, Peaky Blinders, Burlesque, 50 first dates, Back to the Future, Wizard of Oz, etc.,), different time periods (Medieval, the Renaissance, Victorian, ancient Greece) or decades (20's, 50''s, 60's, 80's, 90's 00's), or even universes that you don't have a name for but so not play in the canon acotar universe (Modern AU, Regency AU, Angels, Demons, Mermaids, etc.,)

What is not allowed?

Canon acotar Universe

Multichapters

Another main couple (see something else?)

Something else?

Yes! So, you can include every other character, from the acotar or SJM universe, and any other ship but the main couple will always be Feysand. The whole story is about them and finding each other in all their lives, so writing around another couple would be pointless for this Writing Circle.

When will the Writing Circle begin?

Technically, you can already post whenever your ready. I would not take your fic down if you want to do that, it's allowed but if you want a direct date, I'd like June 1st as a starting date

I can't tell you when I will be able to contribute but I will be so excited to see your fics, my friends! Everyone is welcome and I hope you will participate!

Your question wasn't answered yet?

Then please don't shy away from sending me an ask or send me a message so we can find an answer

You can always find this post linked on my pinned post

I was tagged by @variousqueerthings to share mash thoughts!

1. Whose overall narrative feels the most satisfying to you?

I have three different answers. If I take "satisfying" to be doomed from the start haunted catharsis? Hawkeye, obviously. It's incredibly satisfying to see a sitcom without much * turn into a beautiful heart breaking eleven season long mental health spiral.

Then there's Klinger, who has the most satisfying narrative from a meta perspective, seeing a one episode gag turn into a beloved character who begins showing up in the credits and gets a big wedding and farewell.

Then there's Charles and Margaret, who graduate from narrative foils to complex and likeable characters with lots of memorable and :') moments.

2. Whose finale narrative feels the most satisfying to you?

Literally the ones above. Hawkeye and Charles make me both tear up every time and Margaret and Klinger make me go :') with pride to see how far they've come.

3. What's a post-canon headcanon that you have (about anything or anyone)

I think they try to hold at least one other reunion to see each other again with all their families in the same hotel on the anniversary of the party

4. What's a pre-canon headcanon that you have (about anything or anyone)?

I think Trapper and Charles vaguely met in Boston at work (maybe at a conference or maybe their hospitals collaborated on something)

5. Who's a secondary/tertiary character you wish you could have seen more of?

Honoria, Bigelow and Kellye.

6. What's a headcanon you have about a non-main character?

I think Kellye got all of them their Hawaiian shirts (yes I know they were popular at the time and sold in different places but I like the thought that she is their main Hawaiian shirt dealer and I think it's also the only explanation why Charles has one)

7. Who's your single episode MVP?

Inga <3 She said Trans Rights. Shout out also to British UN guy bullying Charles, Brandy Doyle the burlesque icon, Tuttle and Park Sung.

8. Share a headcanon about anything that you don't get the chance to talk about enough

Charles listens to "Songs on the Death of Children" because of his brother :)

9. What's one of your favorite non-romantic dynamics on the show?

Potter and everyone. He's just so dad and grandpa coded and I love how a lot of that was just Harry Morgan being Like That. Potter just adopted an entire camp of weird traumatised kids.

10. What's an underrated dynamic overall on the show?

Klinger and Mulcahy being besties <3 Klinger being the only one attending services and Mulcahy telling people to compliment his gloves lives rent free in my brain. Runner up is Charles and BJ making 2 separate people believe they are seriously sick because they were annoying. Absolute gremlins and they should have worked together more often.

11. What's a moment that was shocking to you?

Just the entire episode George. I was 15 and just figuring out I could be queer and watched an entire episode from the 70s set in the 50s. Really rewired my brain back then.

12. What's a moment that you could analyse forever?

Just about anything in Dreams. Shout out also to the coffee scene in sons and bowlers because everyone needs to have one small line in that episode that makes them foam at the mouth, right?

13. What's a moment that you want to watch over and over?

Movie Tonight. Any moment from that episode. Also just the entire episode. It's one of my feel good episodes and it's just sooooo <3

I tag: all my lovely mashtuals and anyone else who wants to do this (bonus points if you haven't seen mash and just commit to the bit making things up)

Seeing tumblr go nuts over Goncharov is really funny to me because I grew up with a VHS tape of the edited-for-tv version of the film that NBC broadcast one time in like 1998 I think that my parents decided to record for some reason.

The thing you need to understand about this is that they had to remove a lot of the movie to get it past tv censors. Like seriously a lot. Like this is a 187-minute gangster movie that was brought down to 79 minutes plus commercials. They removed nearly 2/3 of the movie. Here are some of the highlites of this unhinged abridged version:

-All of the swearing is dubbed in fake Russian, except Mario. He gets monkey-fighting-snakes-style lines like "that matroishka-figure had better watch his flexing back!"

-The movie is now 50% looking at clocks.

-When the car explodes we don't know who's in it or why this is so upsetting for Sofia so her arc makes zero sense.

-Not only did they remove the scene where Ice Pick Joe dies, they also decided to remove the really tense build up where he's going through all the alleys and the churchbells keep going off. Like they could have just cut it off at the bit when he looks up, realizes that he's being followed, and starts to think that maybe he's going to die, but nope. He just walks out the back door of the cobbler's shop while slightly ominous music plays and we never see him again.

-They obviously had to cut the bit where Goncharov is starting to unravel and kills all the henchmen to cover the tracks, but this means that we go directly from him telling Andrey not to worry because he "has a plan for those loose ends" to the church scene, so it looks like his plan was to just go to church.

-Katya gets to slap Goncharov twice because they reused the end of that scene to replace their argument at the burlesque show and hoped no one would notice.

-The poker scene is really jumpy and short because all of the innuendo was cut.

-In the 3rd commercial break there's this bizzarre commercial for Fazoli's that has a tie-in for Antz in which the ants steal a Fazoli's and carry it away.

-Andrey is in this version so little that the homoerotic subtext is even stronger somehow?

-We don't get to see Goncharov die. Like he's just lying there on the floor and goes into the flashback and when that ends the movie's over. It just starts playing the credits.

[lizzygrantarchives]

Adirondack Daily Enterprise, January 28, 2010

When she was growing up in Lake Placid, Lizzy Grant used to perform in choirs and school plays at St. Agnes and Lake Placid Middle/High School, and though she was still young, audiences could see she had the potential for a future in music.

"Even then you could tell that she had a very different and powerful sound, because she could mesmerize the entire audience even when she was little girl," said father Rob Grant.

Now 24 years old, Lizzy Grant is on her way. Earlier this month, she released her first professionally produced album, "Kill Kill," under the stage name Lana Del Ray on the label Five Points Records, and it is now available for purchase on iTunes and other Web sites.

Lizzy recorded the album with producer David Kahne, who has worked with well-known musicians from Paul McCartney, Cher and Bruce Springsteen to No Doubt, Guster and Matisyahu.

"He produced most of the major music groups that have come out of the last couple of decades, so she was very fortunate to get a producer of that world-class caliber," Rob said.

When she was recording, Lizzy even got to meet Paul McCartney. McCartney came with his son, James, to start working with Kahne on an album of his, and Lizzy decided she wanted to meet them. She knocked on the door, saw McCartney and waved to him.

"David's like, 'Oh my God,'" Lizzy said. "Paul didn't care."

Lizzy said she saw a toy piano that made what she called a "sparkly jewelry box sound" and said she wanted to use it for her album, but Kahne said she couldn't since it was already on McCartney's. When she made a face, McCartney tried to comfort her.

"He said, 'Don't pout, Lizzy, don't pout,'" Lizzy said. "'You'll find another instrument.'"

Grant said she worked with Kahne every day for about three months recording the 13-track album.

"We were pretty obsessive about it," she said.

Lizzy said she liked that Kahne quickly understood her vision.

She told him she wanted the album to be cinematic. She was also hoping it would reflect her affection for nostalgic things like Coney Island and black and white movies.

"He kind of got my whole vibe right away," she said.

That nostalgia, which often has an eerie tinge to it, is a big part of her vibe. The music videos she has posted on YouTube and MySpace are shot in the style of the '50s and '60s and include plenty of B-roll from that era.

The promotional photographs she posts on her Web sites and provides to the media highlight her platinum-blonde hair and mod-style makeup and feature washed out colors reminiscent of earlier decades.

Much of the nostalgia is heavy on Americana themes, including images of surfing, carnivals and Lizzy dressed as Marilyn Monroe or wearing an American flag and a military ball cap with U.S.A. embroidered on it.

Lizzy's music is difficult to place. Her heady, jazzy voice often sounds like a '50s nightclub singer, and the music at times is highlighted by heavy burlesque-style drumming and cascading wurlitzers.

There is also a modern element to much of it, though. Some songs verge on electronic beats, and her vocals sometimes slide into whispers and minor chords reminiscent of Courtney Love or Fiona Apple.

Grant's MySpace page describes her music as glam/surf/Hawaiian.

"It's been described as a very smoky and provocative kind of voice," her father said. "It kind of catches you off guard. It's not predictable."

The album has been getting some attention, including a review on the Huffington Post Web site and a two-page Q&A in Index Magazine.

"I'm glad I'm singing," Lizzy said. "I don't really know what else I would do."

She plays the guitar and the wurlitzer, but prefers to stick to singing when she's performing a concert because her hands get too nervous. She said she likes to have video of 1950s Las Vegas, Frank Sinatra and similar images to project onto the backdrop so the audience watches that instead of her.

Her venues vary from ballrooms to burlesque clubs to private parties.

She said she doesn't have a single type of costume when she plays a show. She'll vary from going all-out glam to wearing cutoff jean shorts and a white t-shirt.

"If I know it's mostly business people, I will specifically dress down just because I know that it makes the whole show more weird," Lizzy said.

She writes all her own music, and she said her lyrics tend to be a reflection on actual incidents in her life.

"There will be two true verses, then I'll make up the third; just rhyme it out," Grant said.

One of the most catchy songs on "Kill Kill," "Gramma (Blue Ribbon Sparkler Trailer Heaven)," is about a conversation she had with her grandmother, Cynthia Grant, who lives in Lake Placid.

Her father, who has a history in advertising and has been helping his daughter market her album, said it's very exciting to live vicariously through her.

"It's a girl from an upstate New York town who may be on the verge of something great," he said.

Originally published on adirondackdailyenterprise.com with the headline Lizzy Grant aka. Lana Del Ray releases album.

Happy 100th Birthday Benny Hill

Benny Hill, the legendary British comedian, would have turned 100 years old today. He was born on January 21, 1924, in Southampton, England, and began his career as a performer in music halls and radio shows.

He became famous for his television show, The Benny Hill Show, which ran from 1955 to 1991, and featured his trademark style of slapstick, burlesque, and double entendre. He also starred in several movies, such as The Italian Job, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines. He was a talented musician as well, and had a hit song with "Ernie (The Fastest Milkman in the West)".

Benny Hill's comedy transcended cultural and linguistic boundaries, and was appreciated by fans from all over the world. His show was exported to many countries. I remember when it started playing in syndication on WOR channel 9. After one episode I was addicted and watched him almost every night.

He received several awards, including a BAFTA, a Rose d'Or, and two Emmy nominations. He was also voted number 17 in ITV's poll of TV's 50 Greatest Stars in 2006. His legacy lives on, as his timeless humor continues to inspire and entertain generations of comedians and audiences alike.

A typical ending of a Benny Hill Episode.

Lost Cos Movie Review

Lost Cos, a cinematic journey into the enigmatic world where the realms of cosplay and burlesque converge, weaves a compelling, if overstuffed, narrative around its protagonist, Eni, portrayed with depth and conviction by Evgeniya Radilova. The film delves into the haunted recesses of Eni's past, marked by a turbulent childhood and the tragic loss of her great love, thrusting her into the subterranean sanctuary of Lost Cos—an underground club where the boundaries between fantasy and reality blur in a mesmerizing dance of heroes and villains.

The absence of "name" actors in the cast might raise eyebrows, but the performances, while somewhat uneven, collectively contribute to the film's overall appeal. Radilova's portrayal of Eni stands as a testament to her acting prowess, as she skillfully navigates the complex emotional terrain of a character grappling with haunting traumas. The audience is invited to witness Eni's metamorphosis from a tormented soul to a formidable force, as she confronts the shadows of her past in the wake of a mysterious death on a New Jersey beach and a disconcerting presence in her DMs.

One of the film's strengths lies in its ability to immerse viewers in the seedy underbelly of the East Coast, portraying a gritty and believable backdrop through meticulously crafted costumes, sets, and an overall visual aesthetic. The world of Lost Cos comes to life with vivid authenticity, creating an atmospheric ambiance that adds depth to the narrative. The club becomes a metaphorical stage for Eni's journey of self-discovery, as she grapples with the dualities of her existence in a realm where escapism meets harsh reality.

While the lack of prominent names in the cast might deter some viewers, the film compensates with a unique and immersive storytelling experience. The supporting cast, despite occasional fluctuations in performance, contributes to the film's overall thematic resonance. The decision to focus on the essence of the story and the authenticity of the characters rather than relying on star power proves to be a bold and commendable choice.

Directed by Laurence Olivier Award and three-time Tony Award-winner Robin de Levita, the film wants to be a sci-fi, action, fantasy, murder mystery, and dramedy. As a consequence, it jumps around between a myriad of subplots. Being a stage and dance director, de Levita naturally leans on his expertise in these areas, giving a huge amount of screentime to long montages and performance sequences. Flashbacks and animation are also thrown into the mix. It was all too much for my taste but I feel there’s an excellent story in there somewhere. Regardless, will definitely appeal to those who love burlesque, sexy dances, and cosplay.

Lost Cos is a cinematic venture that transcends the conventional boundaries of storytelling, delving into the realms of psychological depth, self-discovery, and the blurred lines between fantasy and reality. Evgeniya Radilova's captivating performance, coupled with the film's gritty aesthetic and evocative setting, ensures that the audience is taken on a thought-provoking journey that lingers in the mind after the credits roll. Despite its minor imperfections, Lost Cos emerges as an interesting piece of cinema that celebrates the transformative power of confronting one's demons and emerging stronger on the other side.

Lost Cos has won over 50 film festival awards and is set to hit theatres on December 8, 2023.

a short list of movies/tv shows that are on constant rotation in my family, but first, my family:

me (25 she/her), my dad (50), my stepmom (42), and my grandpa (73)

the movies/shows we all continuously rewatch:

gilmore girls

across the universe (2007)

burlesque (2010)

psych

veronica mars

waitress (2007)

the rocky horror picture show (1975)

a few fun anecdotes:

my dad, stepmom, and i saw the musical version of Waitress on broadway together but my grandpa saw it when it was still being workshopped in boston.

my 93 year old great-grandmother once walked in on me and my stepmom full out screaming (passionately, but not angry at each other) about the last season of gilmore girls and how the new writers wrote everyone out of character. we somehow had to pretend that we were having a normal conversation.

i have never watched burlesque at a normal hour, it’s always at like midnight or 2 in the morning or 7 AM when i should be getting ready for class that i’ve decided to rewatch that movie. once woke up to get some water and found my dad watching it on his ipad at 4 AM so i suspect it’s hereditary.

my grandpa has entire wall of pineapple paintings because of Psych.

my stepmom sings the Psych theme song when she’s driving.

i’ve been to a play version of the rocky horror picture show with my dad and stepmom and last halloween my grandpa and i went to a midnight viewing of the movie.

when i was in college my stepmom and i briefly ran an airbnb together one summer and anytime it wasn’t booked we’d make popcorn and watch veronica mars there as a “quality check” to make sure it was the coziest environment for our guests.

my grandpa travels a lot work for so he owns like 6 copies of across the universe on DVD and somehow i have 3 of them in my apartment even though i no longer own a DVD player.

my favorite quote from across the universe is “music’s the only thing that makes sense anymore” and i have gotten a minimum of 6 people to watch it from this quote alone.

Hi Nonny! ahhh I love these stories, thank you so much. Isn't it the best thing how stories can connect people across generations?

I love that you can argue with your stepmom about Gilmore Girls and that your grandad has pineapple paintings all over (psych is such a great show to connect people). I have never watched Across the Universe (or even heard of it) so I went and watched the trailer for you. You may just add me as number 7.

[ad_1]  The musical superhit film directed by Nasir Husain featured Asha Parekh, Jeetendra, and Aruna Irani completed 50 years on 5th Nov 2021 and was a super hit in India. You would be surprised to note that it was a super-duper hit in China when it was released eight years after its Indian release. In fact, Caravan, believe it or not, sold 19 million tickets in India – and 100 million tickets in China! One hundred million broke all records in China for a foreign film. One of the earliest Indian films to earn the big bucks in Chinese domestic markets was Raj Kapoor's 1951 Indian classic Awara. released in 1955.Caravan‘s amazing success in China was matched only thirty years later by Nasir Husain's nephew, Amir Khan with his 3 Idiots.The movie’s storyline was nothing great. A runaway heiress joins a passing caravan of gypsies, to escape the villain who murdered her father, then falls in love with the leading man, who eventually rescues her from the villain, etc, etc. The film's plot was loosely inspired by the 1953 film Girl on the Run, a little-known crime drama set against the backdrop of a carnival burlesque show, which was changed to a gypsy show in Caravan.Aruna Irani has a significant role in this film.The traveling troupe featured Madan Puri as the manager and a young Aruna Irani as the star performer Nisha. In fact, Irani nearly stole the show from the film’s heroine with her animated performances in the songs 'Chadhti Jawaani Meri Chaal Mastani', 'Dilbar Dil Se Pyaare' and ‘Ab Joh Mile Hain Toh’.The screenplay of the film was provided by Bhowmick, but the treatment of the film was all Husain, who turned it into the entertainer that it was. According to the film's star Asha Parekh in her biography The Hit Girl, Caravan happened accidentally.The highlight of the film was its music, composed by R D Burman, and lyrics by Mazrooh Sultanpuri. In Caravan, there was a song for every mood. There was the soft romantic duet ‘Kitna Pyaara Waada’, the road song ‘Goriya Kahaan Tera Desh Re’, the goofy performance number ‘Daiya Yeh Main Kahaan Aa Phasi’, and, of course, the most famous of them all, the cabaret track, ‘Piya Tu Ab Toh Aaja’ picturized on Helen, which brought singer Asha Bhosle her third Filmfare award for Best Female Playback Singer.Even after 50 years, the film is still refreshing, if you have not seen the film,i recommend you to see it today.If you liked this Blog, you would also appreciate my Youtube Channel, link is given belowhttps://youtu.be/ZEnEKZcyPjI[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEnEKZcyPjI[/embed][embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbXhA0iZrlw[/embed][embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QdOWDrvOt-A[/embed]All Songs of Caravan [ad_2] Source link
