The band that got me into this entire scene. Well, two bands. Gacharic Spin and their alter ego Doll$Boxx (which is GS + [purple haired] singer Fuki). This is the first new Doll$Boxx photo in a while - hopefully there will be new music too. Would be so good to see them live. A proper full circle moment.

This song rocks my socks off even more now that I've seen Gacharic Spin in person.
For potential link rot purposes, this is Take My Chance by Doll$Boxx

And now to try out my new WCW gifs:

im so sorry i had an ask abt what my fav T&K moments are but i deleted the draft and the ask dissapeared too... soooooo... not doing that ever again! thats okay.
i am fond of all the eras (which in my head are 1. them being on DR, 2. right after DR, 3. the 2 ssns of AS they were on (or at least Ks ssn), 4. leading up to the breaking point, 5. the "fallout", 6. reconnecting, 7. up until covid, 8. beginning of the lockdown, 9. leading up to their tour, 10. during tour, 11. after tour until the breakup(?), 12. and now idk whats going on again but we will be smarter looking back on this time in the future) for their own special weird whatevers that they had going on. but here r my fav ones:
1.
- T picking K despite her not really contributing to her team doing well again.
- the one moment i made my header bc its very cutesy.
- K being sooo offended abt T being eliminated both on DR and after in her yt series.
2.
- those interview(?) bits where they both say they'd kaikai w each other from their season.
- besties for cash.
- also their twitter posts from this timeperiod thirsting over eachother!??!?! (+ T on reddit).
3.
- the Pandora Boxx interview w them from maybe 2016 (its still up on fb!) (atp K being on AS2 was already announced ig?)
4.
- K getting those dolls from Andrew for T (no matter how cursed they may or may not be).
- T&Ks HS reunion (them twirling around together☹)
6.
- the anecdote of them going on a hike where T says she forgives K and K's gratefulness for it.
8.
- honestly my all time fav comfort thing(s) they ever did were the pods that barely had video to them yet and were filmed at like Ts place or in hotelrooms on the floor. like. the vibes were immaculate and no matter what is going on that bunch of episodes just bring inner peace to me. forever grateful for them <33
9.
- anytime they talk abt eachother to random ppl basically unprompted (see: K's Pearl makeover, T on the latest PitStops, T on her own channel to guests) ((its just so casual and domestic)).
- i think timeperiod-vise Ks fakeout of a 40th bday party falls here. and the fact that T dressed up like that... and that pic of them and Orville in the bathroom...
10.
- all of the little moments of the live tour. there was so much going on, it was very intense and oh god i miss it soooo much. i esp loved their days in germany (or europe in general). the hugging the touching the bloopers the breeding jokes!!! insanity.
- THE VIDEO OF THEM THANKING THE SUBSTACK FUNDERS(?) AT THAT BUSSTOP.
- all the stories of them being on the tourbus or even the day they had an accident w one vechicle and they said they were worried abt each other (i only dare to list it here bc nobody got hurt as far as i know) ((did this actually happen? i think they only talked abt it like once and that would be weird and out of character for them so maybe i imagined it?))
11.
- the pod they say how they'd stop whatever they were doing just to go help the other and how they love each other the most!!
- THE TAMMIE POD.
- T saying "she is my bitch" abt K backstage (its really just that she isnt usually posessive over K so vocally. and then she was. and i was like okay wow!).
- SHE IS GOD TO ME!!!!!!!
- T straddling K on the netflick couch numerous times.
+ all of the "waterloo"s and "time after time"s.
(+ T writing Soldier and Ghost on the moon and singing You can come around if u want to right after musing abt whether we also "have a friend who we r just like 'well u could have been the loml but we met under circumstances that made us only friends so whatever!'".)

What have I done?!? 🥁🎸🎹 This is so, so cool! You wrote the audition like i mini-fic 🤩 Drabble? I don’t know, it was very cool, thank you 👏🏼 And Mary’s comment when she was adjusting the chair, hahaha. Loved the idea with neon colors, what a cool concept 🎨 Who’s the singer of this band? And how would Ava know of their music? Has she seen them live, or is their music out? Maybe it could be combined with your earlier thoughts? That Ava worked in a bar they played, and that’s how she found out about them (and Bea). Does the band have a name? And/or will it change/develop when Ava joins? Thank for taking my questions seriously, this is so much fun 😘
anon oh no, oh no now we're getting into the details aren't we. i'm torn between the band being primarily instrumental (akin to Polyphia) and having guest vocalists every now and then, vs having some hella strong vocalist - i'm thinking like Fuki from Doll$Boxx or omg what if someone like Tatiana Shmayluk from Jinjer?!? yoooo that would be intense. if the latter, then Lilith would be a terrifying analogue oh geez.
okay yknow what, i'm leaning towards instrumental first with guest vocals because i kinda like the idea of them working with different vocalists occasionally, which would be kinda like canon what with how their "front man" / halo bearer changes. but also like, that puts more pressure on each instrument to be on their game (which Beatrice impresses upon Ava when they have their two-day bootcamp).
as for how Ava first heard of them (aside: anon I am the absolute worst at naming things, their band's name is just going to be "the band" for the forseeable future lolol) maybe she happened upon their music online or heard about them somehow - someone playing a cover, someone mentioning them in passing, or maybe someone watching a video on their phone and Ava happens to see - oh that would be amusing if it was JC, yeah, lol okay, maybe JC's also a musician and someone sent him a video of their band but he's not really paying attention to it because it's not his vibe but Ava is enthralled. she goes home, looks up all their stuff, immediately starts playing along and it's difficult and brilliant and it pushes her to the limits of her skill level but she still has the utmost fun and it pushes her to keep learning. she becomes a fan but while she's eaten up every video and interview she could find about them (perhaps she happened upon one of those explainer videos that Beatrice did lol) she hasn't had the chance to see them live because they'd been on hiatus - hence why Beatrice (and Mary though she tries not to show it) are stressed about the upcoming gig, because while it's a small one, it is important to them since it's their first one in a long time.
oh and maybe also they're debuting new music for the first time in a long time at that gig - and maybe, after Ava's proven herself to Mary, they work through the song with Ava and Ava is able to play it perfectly, but then maybe during a break or something she's playing along to the track - not exactly practicing but like casually playing like she does at home alone whenever she listens to their songs, adding stuff here and there - and maybe Mary and Beatrice come back from break early and hear her and Beatrice looks at Mary and is like, "I'll make sure she keeps to what we've written" but Mary forestalls her, steps into the room fully, which catches Ava's attention, who abruptly stops playing and somehow manages to stop the track too without falling over.
"hey boss," Ava says, twirling the drumsticks between her fingers nervously. "that was a uh quick walk."
Mary's face is unreadable still, and she rewinds the track a bit. "do that fill again."
Ava blinks and Mary gives her a look that's like, 'do not make me repeat myself' and Ava scrambles to remember what she did and fumbles.
Mary shakes her head. "no, you did it differently last time." she kinda beatboxes what she remembers and Ava's like, "oh yeah" and repeats it correctly this time and Mary's taking up her bass and is muttering to herself about voicing things differently to match and Beatrice is like, "you want to change it? the performance is the day after tomorrow" and Ava's like, "hey I was just messing around" but Mary looks Ava straight in the eye and says, "it's a good idea. let's use it." then she looks at Beatrice and raises an eyebrow. "two days is more than enough time, right?"
and Beatrice kinda helplessly laughs because of course Mary would get caught up in this, in this energy Ava's brought with her - it's the renewal they've needed; Ava's exactly what they've been looking for.
#basically anon i don't they change their name but i do think they incorporate ava into their process#it doesn't necessarily change their sound but it adds something new to it if that makes sense#anyway details are my kryptonite lol#also i guess y'all are getting a look into how my brain works whenever i start writing a fic lolol it's literally like this#just full of what ifs and maybes and i wonders lolol#also anon i'm thinking that idea where they meet at a bar would be a different situation#bc you *know* if ava meets bea in person she's gonna shoot her shot lol#idk i kinda like the idea of this particular audition situation to be without any past stuff#though i could see that being a delicious route too (someone write it! pls write it someone anyone plssss)#jt answers#jt writes fic#i guess lol#avatrice#band au

@whetstonefires tagged me in a post where the only prompt was "10 songs" so I have decided to shuffle my music app and list the first 10 songs that come up
1)Into the Unknown - Minor Key cover by Lydia the Bard (Elsa's Villain Song)
Minor key makes every song better, but especially a disney song
2) Wool Over Our Eyes - The Stupendium
I really love songs written about obscure games I've only watched let's plays of. this one's about a sheep cultist.
3) Would You Go With Me - Josh Turner
Look, I love a good country love song. "If I gave you my hand/ would you take it and make me/ the happiest man in the world"
4) Say My Name - Beetlejuice the Musical
love a musical, love some wordplay, love Lydia calmly kicking ass in this. only improved by an awesome & playful animatic
5) The Red Means I Love You - Madds Buckley.
My favorite story about this song is she posted it and all her religious relatives expressed Deep Concern about her mental health and she was just sitting there like 'it's an anime reference, it's about himiko from bnha, i don't actually want to murder people"
6) Kiss the Girl - Minor Key Cover - Chase Holfelder
Another minor key cover! Gosh i love them. This guy has a bunch of great stuff.
7) New Friends - Maty Noyes
The music video for this one is so creepy-fun, love it. Plus I'm just a sucker for clever visual symbolism & motif
8) Take My Chance - Doll$boxx
Another great music video. Wait for the beat to drop. :3
9) Resurrection by Breakbeat - Altered Beast - djbpretzel
I know nothing about the game(s?) this is remixed from I just love the music. For some reason I associate it in my head with Girl Genius. I feel like parts of this are what heterodyning would sound like.
10) Rule the World - Kamelot
High drama, heck yeah
----
annnnd 10 people, lessee: @theunvanquishedzims @rollerskatinglizard @fluffypinkjellyfish @heigraylake @spockandawe @dreamwaffles @asukaskerian @roachpatrol @mercurialmalcontent @juanpujolgarcia @ anybody else who wants to play

My top ten albums of the year 2023 list 8. Gacharic Spin - W This was my number #1 album until around September of 2023. Everything from here onwards could easily take the top spot. This band are strangely important to me. In 2013 they were the first band (along with their alter ego 'Doll$Boxx') that introduced me to this whole new, all girl J-rock/metal/alternative scene that has since bloomed in all different directions. They were very much a "stepping stone" band though, in that I got their debut and liked it, but generally found myself drifting away and paying more attention to other bands. Ten years later I saw they were releasing a new album and decided to give it a go, and it just completely floored me. The first single 'Replica' is a song about anxiety and dealing with the "always on, always at your best" culture of the 21st century (especially so in Japan). It is rousing and liberating in equal measure. Fronted by a new-ish (this is her 2nd album I believe) and younger (compared to the original members) singer called Angie 1/3 (original singer and drummer Hana now plays guitar!), both the songs and the band benefit greatly from her presence. On 'Lonely Mart', her vocal skills are front and centre of this stripped-back yet still inventive ballad. 'Voice' starts with a pop-punk sounding early summer morning guitar line and builds into a stomping, feel good anthem. Whereas on 'Live Every Moment' (featuring both Hana and Angie on vocals) the band channel Iron Maiden, but pull it off with style and grace. W is an absolute winner for a band, and I'm so glad to have reconnected with them.
