The Solar System Legacy Challenge: Sweet Dreams Gen 1 pt.51
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Late summer evening and the bright festival lights cast a soft glow across the backyard. Jorden has the kids outback enjoying the warm evening breeze and the festive sounds of music and laughter from the local street market. From Marbles, to hopscotch they enjoyed each others company and when Mercury and Beckett couldn't play nice Jorden would move them on to a new activity not exactly the disciplinarian. Spirit was inside preparing a local and household favorite of Khao Niao Mamuang, a treat she didn't make for them often.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While waiting for dessert Jorden goes back to working on the treehouse. Him, Beckett and Mercury had started working on it at the beginning of the summer and were close to finishing it up. He planned to work through the night, with help from Spirit to surprise the kids.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Spirit serves dessert on the back porch turning on the stereo with a little World music in the background. They banter playfully, joking about Jorden's newest mishap at the woodworking table and who was best at marbles (Beckett). All while complimenting Spirit on the excellent meal between bites and barks of laughter.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
At the end of the night Jorden and Mercury head out back and turn off all the lights. They spend the evening stargazing and moon watching as Jorden taught M everything he could about the Planets and stars.
Jorden: You'll have a moon one day my little Planet.
Mercury: For now I have you and mommy and annoying Beckett.
Jorden: And we'll always be part of your galaxy my sweet girl.
He smiles up at the sky.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
M wakes up and wipes the tears running from her eyes. She sits up replaying the beautiful dream in her mind.

Guys, I have a great story idea
do you know Frowny Fox from GameToons?
Frowny Fox is a rejected toy of Playtime Co. and a rejected member of the Smiling Critters.
my idea is
( I reincarnated to Frowny Fox )
Listen to my idea
y/n was a teenager and a fan of Games & fan story
y/n You like video games & played (poppy playtime) before & And watch The GameToons channel.
When y/n died. they reincarnated to Frowny Fox
They were pleased Because Frowny Fox was their favorite character
My idea is to summarize the story.
After you realize that you Die and become Frowny Fox
y/n Decisions to live a happy and adventurous life
first: You tried to find out if there was a guide and Find a screen
shows you your level and your advantages
Kind of reminds you of undertale
secondly: Fix your body.
You search for a laboratory & you Find the materials to Fix Yourbody.
And you have found a shoulder bag
thirdly: Look for Frowny Fox project ownership papers And destroy the backup copy
Even if you were a rejected toy It is better to be completely free From the factory and CEO
you expected it to be difficult, But you found it easy surprisingly.
You said to yourself: Okay makes sense After all I know the law of the universe GameToons
Fourthly: Find a way out of the factory After you left a message to Hoppy Hopscotch the only and true friend to Frowny Fox
fifthly: What is your goal?
Simply You help people of all ages: like
Abuse Children
Fix parents' relationship with their children however if the parents Don't change
y/n uses the phone to call the authorities and says they are an unknown person who would like to report an Abuse Child.
After the intervention of the authorities
y/n helps find a new family for Children.
Children who are bullied or do not have self-confidence or Autistic children.
teenagers & Adults who find difficulty in their lives
People who Face Trauma & Losing someone dear to them & Mourning
y/n as Frowny Fox you listen to their stories and Help them
After you left the factory
your level up And you earned it new power
Like your bag
y/n appearance changed a little
Imagine with me a Frowny Fox wears glasses
(A note I am a person who wears glasses and I like my character to have glasses So I make y/n a person who wore glasses before they died)
Tumblr media
or
Tumblr media
(I want his hair to be fluffy and soft)
Imagine this scene with me:
Frowny Fox sings at a music festival With a teenage band
Like this scene (Let It Rain | MLP: Equestria Girls)
Imagine a smoke coming out of the mouth of Frowny Fox And drying up people like Sunset Shimmer
(This is the color of the gas)
Tumblr media
You have to admit that this is a fitting (Let It Rain | MLP)song for Frowny Fox
I have other songs that suit the story scenes, I imagine it such as:
(“Gonna Be My Day” My Little Pony: A New Generation) (Good Vibes | MLP: Equestria Girls ) (Run to Break Free | MLP: Equestria Girls) (Equestria Girls Season 2 | 'Find the Magic' Music Video) (Play (Original Broadway Cast Recording)) (Applause - Lady Gaga (Lyrics)) (Top Of The World From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile ) (Rip Up The Recipe From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile ) (Carried Away From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile) (Take A Look At Us Now From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile) (Running Out Of Time - The Motion Picture Soundtrack Vivo) (Keep the beat The - Motion Picture Soundtrack Vivo) (Tough crowd - Motion Picture Soundtrack Vivo) ("Wake Up" Clip | Julie and the Phantoms) ("Flying Solo" Clip | Julie and the Phantoms) ("Finally Free" Clip | Julie and the Phantoms) ("Bright" | Julie and the Phantoms) (Stand Tall" Julie and the Phantoms) (Touch The Sky (Brave) Cover) (Lena Hall - The Magic Inside (I Am Just a Pony) (Aviators Remix)) (Who I Am - Lyrics | Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy) (Weightless - Lyrics | Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy) ("Float" from Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast) (I'll Save You - Jordan Sweeto) (Anna Blue- Where Do I Go?) (Wildside (From "Adventures in Babysitting") ( Theme Song Zendaya - Keep It Undercover) (This Is Me From "Camp Rock") (Victorious Karaoke | Freak the Freak Out) (The Greatest Showman | "Never Enough") (The Greatest Showman Cast - The Greatest Show) (The Greatest Showman | "From Now On") (Will Smith - Friend Like Me from Aladdin) (Adam Friedman - Glorious (lyrics)) (When Can I See You Again - Owl City) (Owl City, Carly Rae Jepsen - Good Time) (Post Malone, Swae Lee - Sunflower) (Song of the Sea | Lullaby) (Bubble OST Florence Mok) ((bubble) theme song Smooth but only the Bubble and Humming sounds 🎶ONE HOUR🎶) (What Else Can I Do? From "Encanto") (Lundh & Jon Becker - Tonight) (Rival & Cadmium - Seasons) (Rival & Arc North - Starlight) (Rival & Cadmium - Fight For Me) (Arensky x Marin Hoxha x Jon Becker - My Gaming Life) (Dominick Soth - Chasing) (Unknown Brain & Spce CadeX - Holding You) (Real Hypha - Getaway)
Yes, I know it's a long list of songs, Anyway
I came up with this idea after watching: REVENGE of the REJECT CRITTER
My brain said to me: Do you remember fan Stories of reborn as UnderTale characters
reborn as Sans or Frisk or Undyne Or any other characters
My brain: Why don't you write a story like this About a reader reborn as Frowny Fox?
This is a thought that buzzed in my head like a bee
There are many ideas for story chapters.
Anyway
After Frowny Fox became famous.
The evil CEO ordered To catch that toy
The evil CEO asked how this happened and how Frowny Fox escaped from his factory
Evil CEO: Oh if I knew this would happen and mumbles
Wilson: sir
Evil CEO: What do you want
Wilson: I checked the cameras Like what you asked about Frowny Fox
Evil CEO: Did you find something?
Wilson: Seemingly Frowny Fox went to a laboratory. then he went to Records.
Wilson: I went to check the Records room.
Wilson: I discovered that he took The original papers of the Frowny Fox project ownership papers And he destroyed the backup copy But he left something out
Evil CEO: Let me see
It was a USB With files
The files were How to fix & update: the reject toys and the forgotten toys And a hair growth formula file for the CEO.
while the USB contains a film of Smiling Critters.
The movie is about There is an evil character Take control of CatNap It makes him create nightmares for children
In this adventure with Smiling Critters With children who save CatNap from the control of the evil one.
Do you remember his episode:
CATNAP is NOT a MONSTER… (Cartoon Animation)
the Scene: (2:25/8:30)
They said: the tape got all warped
so Frowny Fox make Cartoon movie.
With this movie, the people might give CatNap another chance To buy him
There is a file on how to fix CatNap gas problem.
And there too Cartoon episodes about Poppy Playtime toys
Do you remember the episode:
THE FORGOTTEN TOYS… (Cartoon Animation) The REJECT Toys… (Cartoon Animation)
y/n felt sorry for toys In the factory So y/n decided to make ever toys feel loved
Before y/n escaped from the factory, y/n did some research About toys And their problems
After y/n found problems with them and Writ a book of solutions How to fix them & update toys
the a reason that y/n made a Cartoon of Poppy Playtime toys
This is the best promotional method for the reject toys and the forgotten toys
Children will love their stories So it makes sense they will buy toys.
There is a blueprint to build it Repair machine for toys
if there was a toy It was made in bad condition like
LEGEND of KILLY WILLY… (Cartoon Animation) the Scene: 2:20/11:09 The REJECT CRITTER… (Cartoon Animation) the Scene: 0:10/8:33
so y/n explained in a message
Instead of throwing them in the incinerator
Why not fix them?
the machine is called (fixesyl)
Any damaged or bad-looking toy will be repaired by (fixesyl) machine
And finally there was an envelope letter for the CEO
it says:
((If you are reading this, This means you know I'm not in your factory
I don't mind you making Frowny Fox toys But no more evil things
I wanted to know what idiot had thought of making me smell like a wet fox
this is not fair Why do the Smiling Critters have the smell of flowers or fruits while I smell like wet fox
Why didn't they give me a berry scent or Spring rain
And don't worry I will send you the second season of Cartoon Poppy Playtime toys.
After showing the First season the episodes.
And trust me when I tell you, you couldn't find me or catch me however I wouldn't mind being your business partner.
I know what you're thinking right now
I the CEO work with a reject critter, and will Maybe not reject toy anymore.
I will find a way to keep in touch with you.
I have a lot of ideas for you.
I confirm my ideas make you rich dozens of times.
But ask yourself, do you really want me to be your enemy?
So in your opinion:
A: Make me a partner does not care about his share of the profit of the business. just wants you to stop Hurt toys and people
or
B: If you think the Prototype or Player Or any other toys was worst enemys, wait and see what I capabilities of.
We both know the answer to the question
I know you will make the right choice.
note: I made a hair growth formula for you
From your friend And your future partner Frowny Fox))
Let's say Things are getting better improvement In the factory
Some were Confused & doubtful, Others were surprised But some were happy about the change
especially reject toys and forgotten toys They were really happy about the change For example CatNap is Glad he's back in the TV show With his comrades, He does not know the reason for the change But he likes it.
There were a lot of rumors about the CEO's New business partner, No one knows who they are.
And a lot of drama.
Anyway I will do something evil in my au
Do you want to know what it is?
I make the Evil CEO's relationship with Frowny Fox like a parent a With their child relationship
I can imagine the CEO As a member Of the Bad Parents Club Consisting of
(Mommy Long Legs & Daddy Long Legs)( Boxy Boo parents) (BUNZO parents) (the PROTOTYPE)
I know what you're thinking: the PROTOTYPE is not a Parent But if you saw episode:
PJ PUGAPILLAR's DARK SECRET… (Cartoon Animation)
(the Scene: 1:00/8:20)
of course the Evil CEO will deny this And he still says the evilboss only cares about money.
while Frowny Fox grin and gives him knowledge looks.
In part of the story events.
there is evil oc
An evil person Trick the CEO To have him sign the papers handing over ownership of the factory
After he kicked the CEO out of the factory.
the evil oc found a way to conquer ever toys
using Minimize gun it made big toys very small and made them lose their abilities
even The Prototype Defeated
all toys became his prisoner
he Lock them up like this cages
Tumblr media
the Image from: The LOOKIES Get REVENGE! (Cartoon Animation)
While giving his evil speech in front of toys cages And the terrible things he will do to them But he was interrupted by one of Co-Workers.
Sir, there is a Missing toy
Evil OC: WHAT, How did this happen?
And what is the name of this toy?
the Worker: Frowny Fox one of the Smiling Critters, We couldn't find him Because he is not in the factory, sir
Hoppy Hopscotch raised her ear When she heard her friend's name
Smiling Critters know who he is Frowny Fox but Other toys do not know him
Evil OC: What that is impossible, these toys do not leave this factory, but live in it.
Wilson: you see sir, the situation With Frowny Fox is different
Evil OC: How so
Wilson: Explain the situation that Frowny Fox was The newest Smiling Critter is invented but he was rejected.
But that won't stop Frowny Fox from move forward.
And explain the rest
the Evil OC and toys were shocked When they knew that Frowny Fox was the business partner with the CEO.
the Evil OC: ordered them to catch him.
Then the Evil OC went to a meeting room With some of Workers.
Hoppy Hopscotch: Don't worry I'm sure Frowny Fox will save us.
Player: Does anyone else know who Frowny Fox is
Poppy: CatNap do know him
CatNap: Yes I know him And true I feel regret When I knew The person who Fix my reputation I treated him badly.
DogDay: no we all did treated him badly will except Hoppy
KickinChicken: we kinda ,played rough with him
Hoppy Hopscotch Shouted: you played rough with him.
you guys bully him and Didn't give him a chance Because he was different from us.
and CatNap do you remember that day When you bring Frowny Fox
The reason Frowny Fox attacked Bubba & DogDay because of they hurt him first. You didn't ask what happened And you attack him without giving him a chance to Explains the situation
The REJECT CRITTER… (Cartoon Animation)(the Scene: 7:44/8:33)
What about that another time when DogDay & KickinChicke threw Frowny Fox away in the incinerator
REVENGE of the REJECT CRITTER (the Scene:0:55/8:17)
DogDay: It was an accident
KickinChicken: Yes, and don't forget that you were pulling His hand too And then we loss of balance Then he fell in the incinerator Then he came back in big monster and tried to kill us.
REVENGE of the REJECT CRITTER (the Scene: 7:12/8:17)
Bubba Bubbaphant: Since that day we have not seen him again
Mommy LL: Why am I not surprised
Boxy Boo: Wow, I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't save you
Lovey Dovey: And here I thought I had a personal problem with my Twin sister
sir poops a lot:This is not acceptable to forgive you After what you did to him
Me and my comrades know how he feels Because we were rejected toys too And we were going to stay like that But thanks to Frowny Fox. he gave us another chance to be on store shelves.
Then they started quarreling with each other
Poppy: That's enough, everyone. Listen. We have to work together if you want to get out And return to our natural sizes & And regain are Our strength
Huggy: She's right, We need a plan,
while the CEO meet Frowny Fox by coincidence
the CEO immediately hugged him, And how happy he is that he found him.
Frowny Fox: What is happening In factory.
the CEO Explain how a "Evil OC" Trick him to Sign in a contract that Handing over ownership of the factory to them
to make it short: Everyone was saved and the Ownership of the factory was returned to the CEO
From that day on, some things changed in the factory
Thanks to Frowny Fox They have a Peace Treaty between Toys and Humans
But some details have not changed in the factory's life
Such as chasing or intimidating.
y/n remembers episode of:(BABY LONG LEGS Wants to Be HUMAN)
(The Scene: 3:56/11:22)& (11:15/11:22)
if Baby Long Legs can transform into a human Then back to being his toy self again
What if there was a way to help those who were transformed into toys
So y/n as Frowny Fox With some of the scientists of PlayCo.
Frowny Fox created a device Makes toys who were human Or an animal can be transformed back to themselves
the device design It could be bracelets & a Hair clip & a badge or a necklace & a ring & a watch
with this device They can turn to human self Then back to being toy self again.
So I will ask you what you think of my au idea
Of course, someone will ask if I wrote the first Chapter
Unfortunately, no Because I was busy drawing Frowny Fox
I try to improve my drawing.
But if I find some time I might be able to wrote the first Chapter
Okay, why do I feel if I opened my page the next day There would be many of you?

Lavender and Starflower (Mobster AU) – Chapter 10
The Dekarios Clan reigns over Waterdeep as the city’s protector for centuries. Suddenly, the Clan gets challenged by Cazador, the head of the Szarr Clan that rules over Baldur’s Gate. Of course, such an attack won’t be tolerated and the intruder must be forced back and out of the City of Splendors. While fixing destroyed protection sigils, Gale, wizard prodigy and heir of the Dekarios Clan, meets a charming stranger called Astarion. And Gale makes the biggest mistake of his life; he invites the pale elf into his home.
Trigger warning (18+): graphic description of sex, graphic description of violence, smut, dissociation, angst, emotional rollercoaster, mobster AU
I was inspired to start writing this fic when I saw this artwork by @arczism
The first poem's an original written by me.
The name of the fictional poet is based on Pan, the Greek god of the wild, shepherds, music, sex, and fertility. The name Pitus stems from Pitys (pine), a nymph who was pursued by Pan.
The second poem's written by me, but inspired by the lyrics to "Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang" by Silver.
In the game, the inscription on Astarion's gravestone reads "Astarion Ancunín: 229 – 268 DR", thus, he died and was turned at the age of 39 (which is very young for an elf since they claim adulthood and an adult name at 100 and can live up to 750 years)
According to D&D lore, Ches aka The Claw of the Sunsets is the third month of the year and the month in which the Spring Equinox takes place.
In Greek mythology, Ariadne was the daughter of King Minos of Crete and helped Theseus escape the Minotaur and then was abandoned by him on the island of Naxos. There, Dionysus (god of wine-making, orchards, fruit, vegetation, fertility, festivity, insanity, ritual madness, religious ecstasy, and theatre) fell in love with her and married her. Many versions of the myth recount Dionysus throwing Ariadne's jewelled crown into the sky to create a constellation, the Corona Borealis (Northern Crown). Ariadne's associated with mazes and labyrinths.
Lamarelle comes from the French phrase 'jouer à la marelle' meaning 'to play hopscotch'.
This is obviously an AU that isn't related to my other work.
Despite worrying about Astarion's whereabouts and well-being, life went on and Gale had to go to work. Setting up more protection and defence spells, gathering information in the brothels, calming the panicked priestesses in the Selûne temple and explaining that the suspended garlic garlands weren't enough to protect them.
With Murk by his side, Gale made his rounds through Waterdeep until long past midnight. He was exhausted when he finally arrived at home, thus, he didn't have the energy to cook for himself and ate some leftovers in the estate's kitchen. Afterwards, he walked upstairs to his suite and closed the door with a deep sigh.
"Gale..." Astarion scrambled off the sofa and flung himself around the wizard's neck. Relief flooded through the latter and he held the vampire spawn close.
"Are you alright? Where were you? I was worried."
"I had to deal with some business," replied Astarion, but didn't elaborate further. "I missed you."
"I missed you too," admitted the wizard, smiling softly.
Astarion kissed him deeply, desperately, and Gale wondered why. The vampire spawn's hands undid the wizard's trousers while they kept exchanging kisses.
"I want you," whispered Astarion. "Please, let me have you."
"Yes," panted Gale and groaned when the elf dragged his lips down his throat and collarbone. Astarion dropped to his knees, pulling down the wizard's trousers and underwear in one go, and swallowed his cock down. Gale moaned as he was deepthroated for the first time in his life, and ran his fingers through the vampire spawn's hair.
"Careful, don't choke," he got out, but realised at the same time that the undead didn't need to breathe. However, he could feel how Astarion, with his nose pressed into Gale's pubic hair, inhaled deeply as if to memorise the smell. The elf swallowed around him and moaned gutturally. Then, he started bobbing up and down on Gale's cock, once in a while pushing the entire length down his throat. It was too much and Gale couldn't hold on any longer.
"I'm close."
He whined the warning a second before he came. Astarion moaned and swallowed eagerly, his nails digging into the wizard's buttcheeks as the vampire spawn deepthroated him again. Gale whimpered due to overstimulation and gently pulled the elf off his softening, sensitive cock. The latter reluctantly let go and released the wizard with an obscene slurp. Moaning, Astarion swallowed again, his eyes on half-mast as he licked his lips. He seemed miles away. Gale stroke the vampire spawn's hair and asked worried: "Are you alright? You seem dazed."
"I'm fine, Mast– darling. I'm fine."
"Let me return the favour."
"No, not necessary. I'm fine," muttered Astarion, lolling his tongue back out to lick Gale's cock again, but the latter moved out of reach.
"Apologies, but I'm still too sensitive," explained Gale and helped the elf onto his feet. "Are you sure you're alright?"
"Yes," answered Astarion, but he seemed to look right through him.
Gale frowned, kissed the vampire spawn's cheek, and murmured: "I'll get ready for bed."
"I'll be waiting for you," purred the elf and pulled him into a sloppy kiss. When they finally parted, Astarion sauntered into the bedroom while Gale entered the bathroom. The latter gave himself a catlick, brushed his teeth, and dressed in a shirt and underwear. Then, he entered the bedroom. Astarion was lounging on the mattress, with his legs spread to put himself on full display and a charming smile on his face.
"Come here, darling," he purred and rolled his hips up.
"My sincerest apology, Astarion, but I'm too tired to continue," Gale told him as he lifted the covers to slip into bed. "I'll make it up to you in the morning, I promise."
For a moment, the addressed stayed silent and Gale worried that he'd angered the vampire spawn. But then, the latter moved over and stroke the wizard's chest.
"I see," he murmured with a sickly-sweet smile that put Gale on edge. "That's alright, darling, but let me stay close to you."
"Of course, Astarion," nodded the wizard and extinguished the candlelight with a flick of the wrist.
As they lay in the dark, the vampire spawn pulled down the blanket, settled between Gale's legs, and took his cock back into his mouth. The wizard hissed in surprise.
"Astarion, please, I'm too tired. Let me sleep," he groaned.
The addressed popped off the wizard's flaccid member and replied: "Then sleep. Just let me stay here for a while. Please..."
Gale sighed. He couldn't refuse Astarion anything.
"Alright, but I doubt I can get it up again."
"That's fine by me," replied the elf and swallowed him back down. The wizard sighed again and started caressing Astarion's silver-white curls.
The latter seemed content to simply lay between his legs, eyes closed, hands on the wizard's thighs, and a flaccid cock on his tongue. He didn't move at all, only swallowed once in a while. It couldn't be called 'cockwarming', not really. Astarion's mouth was too cold for that, and it was more the other way around; the warmth of Gale's member warming up Astarion's mouth. But the wizarddidn't mind and it seemed as if the vampire spawn didn't either.
"I'm cold," muttered Gale after a while.
Astarion only hummed and, without looking, pulled the blanket up and over himself to cover Gale's torso. The latter lifted it up to look at the elf who was still between his legs and asked: "Are you alright down there? Are you sure you want to continue?"
"Yes," slurred Astarion, gazing up at him.
Again, it seemed like he was far away mentally and looking right through him.
"If you say so," muttered Gale and made himself more comfortable with a sigh. He stretched out his legs, sunk deeper into the pillow, and moved his hand to his own thigh to cover Astarion's fingers. He fell asleep this way, utterly exhausted.
The vampire spawn lingered under the covers, with his mouth around the wizard, while he was floating. His mind blissfully empty. All his worries and fears gone for a short while.
When Gale awoke, Astarion's head was resting on his chest. Smiling, he stroke the elf's silky-soft hair.
"Good morning," he mumbled sleepily.
The vampire spawn lifted his head up, smiling at him.
"Morning."
Astarion slotted their lips together sloppily and sucked on Gale's tongue who moaned at the treatment. They moved their bodies together, rolling their hips into each other. The wizard wrapped a hand around them both and started to stroke. Astarion whined into Gale's mouth and thrust into the grip.
"Gale," he moaned, eyes rolling back in his head. "A poem..."
The addressed huffed a laugh and pulled the vampire spawn into another passionate kiss before complying to the request.
"'Whether bathed in daylight or moonlight,
your beauty always shines blindingly bright.
I'm simply gazing at you in utter awe
as if you were a chiselled marble statue,
covered in stardust and morning dew.
You're the most beautiful being I ever saw.
I realise that the gods have not only blessed you,
as I am allowed to dwell in your presence, I'm blessed too.'"
Astarion's orgasm hit him like a minotaur during mating season. As his seeds burst out of him, covering Gale's hand and belly, his body shook violently and he moaned so loudly and gutturally, he feared his vocal cords would rip. It was only with Gale that his orgasms were so intense. Unsually, he felt nothing. He locked lips with the wizard again, kissing him desperately and hungrily. With a groan, Gale rolled his hips up one last time before he was granted his on relief.
Panting, they lay there, waiting until they'd recovered.
"Pan Pitus, author of numerous epic erotic poems," mumbled Astarion. "Allegedly, he died during intercourse at the ripe age of six hundred and sixty-nine."
"What a way to go," snickered Gale. The elf graced him with a chuckle, but it sounded a bit forced.
After a few minutes had passed, the wizard sighed and spoke: "I must go to work. Will you still be here when I come home?"
Astarion gave him a small smile, it seemed sad.
"Of course, I'll be here, darling."
"Are you sure you'll alright?" asked Gale, frowning slightly. "Something seems off since you've returned. Did something happen? You know you can trust me."
"Of course, I trust you darling, but it's nothing." After a short pause, Astarion sighed and added: "Well, there is something troubling me, but unfortunately, you cannot help me with it. I have to work through it on my own, I'm afraid."
"I see..." Still frowning, Gale gently brushed a loose curl behind the elf's pointy ear. "Whatever's troubling you, I'm sure you'll figure it out. I have faith in you."
At that, the addressed barked a laugh, sharp, humourless, and sad.
"I will," he said then.
They finally got out of bed. Gale got ready for the day in a rush and had a quick breakfast. Astarion moved much slower, as if still in trance. The wizard couldn't figure out why the elf looked so sad. With one last kiss, they parted and Gale made his way over to Morena's office to accept today's duties.
The day was rainy and unproductive. Gale made no progress on the subject of Cazador. No news, no more broken sigils, nothing at all. It was eerie – and highly suspicious. In a bad mood, Gale trotted home next to Murk who happily whistling a tune, seemingly utterly unbothered by anything.
At least, I'll see Astarion again soon, Gale thought with a smile.
"I'm home!" Gale announced and closed the suite's door behind him. He caught sight of Astarion lying on the sofa, curled up with a poetry album in his hand, but staring into space. Tara was sitting next to him on the sofa's armrest.
"Good evening, Mr. Dekarios. Welcome home," she said.
"Hello, my dear Tara," smiled the addressed and walked over to her. He scratched the purring tressym under the chin and then kissed the vampire spawn's forehead.
"Hello, Astarion, how are you?" he asked.
"I'm fine," mumbled the addressed and lifted his gaze up at the wizard.
He looked terrible, with dark circles under his eyes and a haunted expression on his face. Gale frowned, but said nothing.
"I'll prepare something for dinner," he spoke. "Are you hungry too? Should I get you some blood?"
"No, everything's fine," Astarion replied, but it was obvious that nothing was fine.
Gale sighed and marched into the kitchen with Tara hot on his heels.
"Astarion was like this all day," the tressym informed him while she patiently waited for her food being served. "He's obviously deeply troubled."
"I know," whispered Gale and sat Tara's bowl of food down. "I've tried to talk to him about it, but he doesn't want to. I don't know what to do..."
"Let's eat first," the tressym said and smacked her lips. "One doesn't think well on an empty stomach."
"Truer words have never been spoken," chuckled the wizard and started cooking his own dinner.
Shortly after, Gale returned to the living room with a bowl of noodles, garnished with steamed cherry tomatoes and basil, and a glass of red wine. Silently, he sat down at Astarion's feet and place the wine glass on the low table in front of the sofa. As soon as he'd started to eat, the vampire spawn got into motion, turned around, and laid his head onto Gale's lap.
"I doubt that's a good idea," remarked the wizard. "I might drop some food and burn you."
The addressed hummed, but stubbornly stayed where he was. Gale kept eating and paid extra attention to not spill anything while Astarion started to stroke the wizard's knee absentmindedly.
When he was done with his dinner, he put the bowl down on the table, lifted his wine glass up, and gulped it all down in one go. Then, he leaned back with a content sigh and stroke Astarion's hair.
"You can talk to me about anything, you know?" he muttered, but Astarion kept quiet.
After a while, Gale rose to wash the dishes and get ready for bed.
When he returned to the living room, Astarion stood in front of the open balcony door. Naked and with his arms slightly spread to the side as if he enjoyed soaking up the moonlight. He looked beautiful and it took Gale's breath away.
"You're beautiful," he voiced his thought.
Astarion turned towards him, smiling that sad little smile. Then, he rushed over and pulled the wizard into a kiss. He helped Gale shed his night clothes hastily, before stepping backwards until the table dug into his backside.
"Gale..." whispered the vampire spawn, stroking the addressed's cheek. "Please make love to me."
Before the wizard could answer, he was kissed again. It felt desperate. Quickly, Astarion turned around, placed his hands on the table, arched his back, and widened his stance.
"Take me right here," he demanded, but it sounded more like begging.
Gale kissed Astarion's neck and let his lips wander down his back, worshiping all those scars. When he'd reached the elf's tailbone, the wizard dropped to his knees, spread Astarion's buttcheeks, and licked across his hole. The vampire spawn gasped and whined when Gale wiggled his tongue into him. Astarion cried out, arching his back, and screwed his eyes shut.
"No one – no one has ever done this before," he panted. "Gods... it feels so good. Please don't stop."
The wizard chuckled – as much as he could in his position – and opened Astarion up with his tongue. In the meantime, he wrapped a hand around the elf's erection and started to stroke. Astarion moaned, whined, and begged for more, with shaking arms and weak legs, until he came. It took all his strength to keep himself upright and his attempt was almost all for nothing when Gale removed his hand from his spent member and pushed his semen-covered fingers into the elf. Astarion groaned as his eyes rolled back. The wizard had such a dirty mind – and he loved it.
"Gale, please, I'm ready," he panted.
With one last lick over the vampire spawn's hole, the addressed drew back and stood up. He bent over Astarion to kiss the tip of his pointy ear and whispered huskily: "I'll make love to you, as promised."
The vampire spawn sobbed quietly, and finally, finally, Gale entered him. Astarion cried out in bliss when his prostate was hit with every slow, sensual thrust. Gale's hands were on his hips and his forehead pressed into his back. He felt the wizard's breath puff against his skin with every exhale and moan. It was too good to be true. Astarion's arms finally gave out and his torso collapsed onto the tabletop. The gentleness of their coupling gave him the urge to scratch his skin off. He moaned while his eyes glazed over and he knew what he had to do. Astarion had made his decision.
"'Starry nights, sunny days,
I always thought that love should be this way,
but now, lifted and evaporated is lust's haze,
gone is the belief that we had a love that would stay.
You've been so good to me, but please don't lie,
I know it's over now, and our love has to die.
It hurts to say farewell, of course it does,
but there's no need to fight until our heads buzz.
My heart says no, but my mind says to let it go.
Let's get it over with and quickly vanquish sorrow.
And who's to say where we'll be tomorrow?'"
For a moment, it was dead-silent in the room. Then, Gale asked tentatively: "Astarion... what – what do you mean by that?"
"Nothing, it's just a poem," said the addressed, still bent over the table.
"No, it's not," retorted the wizard. "Don't lie to me."
Astarion chuckled, but it sounded hollow and humourless.
"I always had a weakness for the smart ones," he said, "and, of course, it'll be my downfall."
Hastily, he grabbed his clothes and put them on. Gale stared at him in disbelief, still naked, covered in sweat and other bodily fluids.
"What the hells is going on, Astarion? Talk to me," he implored, but the addressed only shot him a sad smile.
"Farewell, Gale. Meeting you was the best thing that ever happened to me. For the first time in one hundred years, my cold, dead heart felt something, and for that I am forever grateful."
And before Gale could react, Astarion jumped off the balcony and vanished into the night. The wizard's heart broke and the tears started to fall.
When Gale had finally fallen asleep after crying himself to exhaustion, Tara hopped off the bed and started pacing through the dark bedroom. What's to be done? What's to be done? Tricky, tricky, indeed. The tressym's sharp eyes landed on Astarion's bag in the corner.
A quick rummage never hurt anyone, she thought and scuttled over. Thanks to a magic word in Tressymspeak, the bag opened for her and she stuck her head in to take a look. Everything smelled strongly of Astarion's perfume, including his fresh clothing. Tara figured it might be a way to try and cover up the vampire spawn's smell of undead that could give him away to more nose-sensitive individuals like herself. She dug deeper. There were two books. By the look of them, they were over two hundred years old. They were well-thumbed and thus, well-loved. One was an epic poem about a dragon slayer and a cursed princess, the other was a collection of Elven poetry. Next to them, Tara discovered a dark red velvet bag and she magicked it open with another spell. Inside were a handful of pretty but regular stones, a gold necklace with a ruby-adorned pendant, and a gold family sigil ring. With it, lay an old, slightly crumbly letter. The tressym let it hover in the air and unfold with a spell.
Ches (The Claw of the Sunsets), 268
To Astarion Ancunín, Heir of the Ancunín Family, Magistrate of Baldur's Gate
We hereby send you a letter of honour regarding an invitation to the decennial Elven Festival of the Arts. You are invited as an honorary member to represent your family. It would be an extraordinary pleasure for us to welcome you.
Yours sincerely,
Ariadne Lamarelle
Board Member of Baldur's Gate's Elven Community
Astarion Ancunín. Heir. Magistrate. Baldur's Gate. Vampire spawn. Not good. Not good at all.
Tara growled a bit as she put everything back where it belonged. Now, she wanted to be even more thorough in her investigation than before. She stuck her head back into the bag to search further. On the bottom sat a leather collar which faintly smelled of honey. That's when she suddenly felt her magic wane. Hissing, the tressym reeled back.
Sussur! Oh, that's most worrisome!
Tara immediately knew that the collar wasn't meant for an animal, but for a very specific human wizard.
I must speak to Morena. We must find out more about the vampire spawn's origin and motives. When I'm done talking to Gale's mother, I'll pick up Astarion's trail. I can follow the smell of his pungent perfume halfway across the city.
Tara nodded to herself and set to work. After all, she had to keep her best friend and his mother safe.

Guys, I have a great story idea
do you know Frowny Fox from GameToons?
Frowny Fox is a rejected toy of Playtime Co. and a rejected member of the Smiling Critters.
my idea is
( I reincarnated to Frowny Fox )
Listen to my idea
y/n was a teenager and a fan of Games & fan story
y/n You like video games & played (poppy playtime) before & And watch The GameToons channel.
When y/n died. they reincarnated to Frowny Fox
They were pleased Because Frowny Fox was their favorite character
My idea is to summarize the story.
After you realize that you Die and become Frowny Fox
y/n Decisions to live a happy and adventurous life
first: You tried to find out if there was a guide and Find a screen
shows you your level and your advantages
Kind of reminds you of undertale
secondly: Fix your body.
You search for a laboratory & you Find the materials to Fix Yourbody.
And you have found a shoulder bag
thirdly: Look for Frowny Fox project ownership papers And destroy the backup copy
Even if you were a rejected toy It is better to be completely free From the factory and CEO
you expected it to be difficult, But you found it easy surprisingly.
You said to yourself: Okay makes sense After all I know the law of the universe GameToons
Fourthly: Find a way out of the factory After you left a message to Hoppy Hopscotch the only and true friend to Frowny Fox
fifthly: What is your goal?
Simply You help people of all ages: like
Abuse Children
Fix parents' relationship with their children however if the parents Don't change
y/n uses the phone to call the authorities and says they are an unknown person who would like to report an Abuse Child.
After the intervention of the authorities
y/n helps find a new family for Children.
Children who are bullied or do not have self-confidence or Autistic children.
teenagers & Adults who find difficulty in their lives
People who Face Trauma & Losing someone dear to them & Mourning
y/n as Frowny Fox you listen to their stories and Help them
After you left the factory
your level up And you earned it new power
Like your bag
y/n appearance changed a little
Imagine with me a Frowny Fox wears glasses
(A note I am a person who wears glasses and I like my character to have glasses So I make y/n a person who wore glasses before they died)
Tumblr media
OR
Tumblr media
(I want his hair to be fluffy and soft)
Imagine this scene with me:
Frowny Fox sings at a music festival With a teenage band
Like this scene (Let It Rain | MLP: Equestria Girls)
Imagine a smoke coming out of the mouth of Frowny Fox And drying up people like Sunset Shimmer
(This is the color of the gas)
Tumblr media
You have to admit that this is a fitting (Let It Rain | MLP)song for Frowny Fox
I have other songs that suit the story scenes, I imagine it such as:
(“Gonna Be My Day” My Little Pony: A New Generation) (Good Vibes | MLP: Equestria Girls ) (Run to Break Free | MLP: Equestria Girls) (Equestria Girls Season 2 | 'Find the Magic' Music Video) (Play (Original Broadway Cast Recording)) (Applause - Lady Gaga (Lyrics)) (Top Of The World From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile ) (Rip Up The Recipe From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile ) (Carried Away From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile) (Take A Look At Us Now From the Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile) (Running Out Of Time - The Motion Picture Soundtrack Vivo) (Keep the beat The - Motion Picture Soundtrack Vivo) (Tough crowd - Motion Picture Soundtrack Vivo) ("Wake Up" Clip | Julie and the Phantoms) ("Flying Solo" Clip | Julie and the Phantoms) ("Finally Free" Clip | Julie and the Phantoms) ("Bright" | Julie and the Phantoms) (Stand Tall" Julie and the Phantoms) (Touch The Sky (Brave) Cover) (Lena Hall - The Magic Inside (I Am Just a Pony) (Aviators Remix)) (Who I Am - Lyrics | Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy) (Weightless - Lyrics | Tinkerbell and the Pirate Fairy) ("Float" from Tinker Bell and the Legend of the NeverBeast) (I'll Save You - Jordan Sweeto) (Anna Blue- Where Do I Go?) (Wildside (From "Adventures in Babysitting") ( Theme Song Zendaya - Keep It Undercover) (This Is Me From "Camp Rock") (Victorious Karaoke | Freak the Freak Out) (The Greatest Showman | "Never Enough") (The Greatest Showman Cast - The Greatest Show) (The Greatest Showman | "From Now On") (Will Smith - Friend Like Me from Aladdin) (Adam Friedman - Glorious (lyrics)) (When Can I See You Again - Owl City) (Owl City, Carly Rae Jepsen - Good Time) (Post Malone, Swae Lee - Sunflower) (Song of the Sea | Lullaby) (Bubble OST Florence Mok) ((bubble) theme song Smooth but only the Bubble and Humming sounds 🎶ONE HOUR🎶) (What Else Can I Do? From "Encanto") (Lundh & Jon Becker - Tonight) (Rival & Cadmium - Seasons) (Rival & Arc North - Starlight) (Rival & Cadmium - Fight For Me) (Arensky x Marin Hoxha x Jon Becker - My Gaming Life) (Dominick Soth - Chasing) (Unknown Brain & Spce CadeX - Holding You) (Real Hypha - Getaway)
Yes, I know it's a long list of songs, Anyway
I came up with this idea after watching: REVENGE of the REJECT CRITTER
My brain said to me: Do you remember fan Stories of reborn as UnderTale characters
reborn as Sans or Frisk or Undyne Or any other characters
My brain: Why don't you write a story like this About a reader reborn as Frowny Fox?
This is a thought that buzzed in my head like a bee
There are many ideas for story chapters.
Anyway
After Frowny Fox became famous.
The evil CEO ordered To catch that toy
The evil CEO asked how this happened and how Frowny Fox escaped from his factory
Evil CEO: Oh if I knew this would happen and mumbles
Wilson: sir
Evil CEO: What do you want
Wilson: I checked the cameras Like what you asked about Frowny Fox
Evil CEO: Did you find something?
Wilson: Seemingly Frowny Fox went to a laboratory. then he went to Records.
Wilson: I went to check the Records room.
Wilson: I discovered that he took The original papers of the Frowny Fox project ownership papers And he destroyed the backup copy But he left something out
Evil CEO: Let me see
It was a USB With files
The files were How to fix & update: the reject toys and the forgotten toys And a hair growth formula file for the CEO.
while the USB contains a film of Smiling Critters.
The movie is about There is an evil character Take control of CatNap It makes him create nightmares for children
In this adventure with Smiling Critters With children who save CatNap from the control of the evil one.
Do you remember his episode:
CATNAP is NOT a MONSTER… (Cartoon Animation)
the Scene: (2:25/8:30)
They said: the tape got all warped
so Frowny Fox make Cartoon movie.
With this movie, the people might give CatNap another chance To buy him
There is a file on how to fix CatNap gas problem.
And there too Cartoon episodes about Poppy Playtime toys
Do you remember the episode:
THE FORGOTTEN TOYS… (Cartoon Animation) The REJECT Toys… (Cartoon Animation)
y/n felt sorry for toys In the factory So y/n decided to make ever toys feel loved
Before y/n escaped from the factory, y/n did some research About toys And their problems
After y/n found problems with them and Writ a book of solutions How to fix them & update toys
the a reason that y/n made a Cartoon of Poppy Playtime toys
This is the best promotional method for the reject toys and the forgotten toys
Children will love their stories So it makes sense they will buy toys.
There is a blueprint to build it Repair machine for toys
if there was a toy It was made in bad condition like
LEGEND of KILLY WILLY… (Cartoon Animation) the Scene: 2:20/11:09 The REJECT CRITTER… (Cartoon Animation) the Scene: 0:10/8:33
so y/n explained in a message
Instead of throwing them in the incinerator
Why not fix them?
the machine is called (fixesyl)
Any damaged or bad-looking toy will be repaired by (fixesyl) machine
And finally there was an envelope letter for the CEO
it says:
((If you are reading this, This means you know I'm not in your factory
I don't mind you making Frowny Fox toys But no more evil things
I wanted to know what idiot had thought of making me smell like a wet fox
this is not fair Why do the Smiling Critters have the smell of flowers or fruits while I smell like wet fox
Why didn't they give me a berry scent or Spring rain
And don't worry I will send you the second season of Cartoon Poppy Playtime toys.
After showing the First season the episodes.
And trust me when I tell you, you couldn't find me or catch me however I wouldn't mind being your business partner.
I know what you're thinking right now
I the CEO work with a reject critter, and will Maybe not reject toy anymore.
I will find a way to keep in touch with you.
I have a lot of ideas for you.
I confirm my ideas make you rich dozens of times.
But ask yourself, do you really want me to be your enemy?
So in your opinion:
A: Make me a partner does not care about his share of the profit of the business. just wants you to stop Hurt toys and people
or
B: If you think the Prototype or Player Or any other toys was worst enemys, wait and see what I capabilities of.
We both know the answer to the question
I know you will make the right choice.
note: I made a hair growth formula for you
From your friend And your future partner Frowny Fox))
Let's say Things are getting better improvement In the factory
Some were Confused & doubtful, Others were surprised But some were happy about the change
especially reject toys and forgotten toys They were really happy about the change For example CatNap is Glad he's back in the TV show With his comrades, He does not know the reason for the change But he likes it.
There were a lot of rumors about the CEO's New business partner, No one knows who they are.
And a lot of drama.
Anyway I will do something evil in my au
Do you want to know what it is?
I make the Evil CEO's relationship with Frowny Fox like a parent a With their child relationship
I can imagine the CEO As a member Of the Bad Parents Club Consisting of
(Mommy Long Legs & Daddy Long Legs)( Boxy Boo parents) (BUNZO parents) (the PROTOTYPE)
I know what you're thinking: the PROTOTYPE is not a Parent But if you saw episode:
PJ PUGAPILLAR's DARK SECRET… (Cartoon Animation)
(the Scene: 1:00/8:20)
of course the Evil CEO will deny this And he still says the evilboss only cares about money.
while Frowny Fox grin and gives him knowledge looks.
In part of the story events.
there is evil oc
An evil person Trick the CEO To have him sign the papers handing over ownership of the factory
After he kicked the CEO out of the factory.
the evil oc found a way to conquer ever toys
using Minimize gun it made big toys very small and made them lose their abilities
even The Prototype Defeated
all toys became his prisoner
he Lock them up like this cages
Tumblr media
the Image from: The LOOKIES Get REVENGE! (Cartoon Animation)
While giving his evil speech in front of toys cages And the terrible things he will do to them But he was interrupted by one of Co-Workers.
Sir, there is a Missing toy
Evil OC: WHAT, How did this happen?
And what is the name of this toy?
the Worker: Frowny Fox one of the Smiling Critters, We couldn't find him Because he is not in the factory, sir
Hoppy Hopscotch raised her ear When she heard her friend's name
Smiling Critters know who he is Frowny Fox but Other toys do not know him
Evil OC: What that is impossible, these toys do not leave this factory, but live in it.
Wilson: you see sir, the situation With Frowny Fox is different
Evil OC: How so
Wilson: Explain the situation that Frowny Fox was The newest Smiling Critter is invented but he was rejected.
But that won't stop Frowny Fox from move forward.
And explain the rest
the Evil OC and toys were shocked When they knew that Frowny Fox was the business partner with the CEO.
the Evil OC: ordered them to catch him.
Then the Evil OC went to a meeting room With some of Workers.
Hoppy Hopscotch: Don't worry I'm sure Frowny Fox will save us.
Player: Does anyone else know who Frowny Fox is
Poppy: CatNap do know him
CatNap: Yes I know him And true I feel regret When I knew The person who Fix my reputation I treated him badly.
DogDay: no we all did treated him badly will except Hoppy
KickinChicken: we kinda ,played rough with him
Hoppy Hopscotch Shouted: you played rough with him.
you guys bully him and Didn't give him a chance Because he was different from us.
and CatNap do you remember that day When you bring Frowny Fox
The reason Frowny Fox attacked Bubba & DogDay because of they hurt him first. You didn't ask what happened And you attack him without giving him a chance to Explains the situation
The REJECT CRITTER… (Cartoon Animation)(the Scene: 7:44/8:33)
What about that another time when DogDay & KickinChicke threw Frowny Fox away in the incinerator
REVENGE of the REJECT CRITTER (the Scene:0:55/8:17)
DogDay: It was an accident
KickinChicken: Yes, and don't forget that you were pulling His hand too And then we loss of balance Then he fell in the incinerator Then he came back in big monster and tried to kill us.
REVENGE of the REJECT CRITTER (the Scene: 7:12/8:17)
Bubba Bubbaphant: Since that day we have not seen him again
Mommy LL: Why am I not surprised
Boxy Boo: Wow, I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't save you
Lovey Dovey: And here I thought I had a personal problem with my Twin sister
sir poops a lot:This is not acceptable to forgive you After what you did to him
Me and my comrades know how he feels Because we were rejected toys too And we were going to stay like that But thanks to Frowny Fox. he gave us another chance to be on store shelves.
Then they started quarreling with each other
Poppy: That's enough, everyone. Listen. We have to work together if you want to get out And return to our natural sizes & And regain are Our strength
Huggy: She's right, We need a plan,
while the CEO meet Frowny Fox by coincidence
the CEO immediately hugged him, And how happy he is that he found him.
Frowny Fox: What is happening In factory.
the CEO Explain how a "Evil OC" Trick him to Sign in a contract that Handing over ownership of the factory to them
to make it short: Everyone was saved and the Ownership of the factory was returned to the CEO
From that day on, some things changed in the factory
Thanks to Frowny Fox They have a Peace Treaty between Toys and Humans
But some details have not changed in the factory's life
Such as chasing or intimidating.
y/n remembers episode of:(BABY LONG LEGS Wants to Be HUMAN)
(The Scene: 3:56/11:22)& (11:15/11:22)
if Baby Long Legs can transform into a human Then back to being his toy self again
What if there was a way to help those who were transformed into toys
So y/n as Frowny Fox With some of the scientists of PlayCo.
Frowny Fox created a device Makes toys who were human Or an animal can be transformed back to themselves
the device design It could be bracelets & a Hair clip & a badge or a necklace & a ring & a watch
with this device They can turn to human self Then back to being toy self again.
So I will ask you what you think of my au idea
Of course, someone will ask if I wrote the first Chapter
Unfortunately, no Because I was busy drawing Frowny Fox
I try to improve my drawing.
But if I find some time I might be able to wrote the first Chapter
Okay, why do I feel if I opened my page the next day There would be many of you?

Just so you know, Florry are the greatest American Rock-n-Roll band happening in America this afternoon. They have two other shows at Hopscotch Music Festival this weekend. If you're attending, it'll behoove ya to see 'em.
I'd go see 'em each time this weekend but my work schedule disagrees. I did get to see them at a day show this past Thursday though. I wonder if I could persuade them to be part of a Clangoring presentation here in Durham or Chapel Hill next time they're out roaddoggin'.

OCTOBER 7TH HORROR WATCH
The Lure (2015)
I missed this one at a film festival when it first came out and that was apparently quite a while ago
Tumblr media
And were in. Siren song.
Help us on shore, we won't eat you. Totes swear
Does not work on women.
Another song, synth pop is this euro synth pop?
Is this European healthcare???
Your boss says to your face go home if you have a cold, don't spread it around???
Is this how normal people live???
Grappa?
Send the minors home?
Strip the minors
They are Barbie doll smooth with no booty cracks
Hypersexualizing the juveniles without sex organs
Oh no wait they have found them and are molesting them great👍
The boys on the beach are band members for this strip??? Bar?? It's like drag club
Okay
Now the girls are suffocating on the floor after being molested
Tossed into the pool, which I'm guessing is not salt water
Golden & silver
But the pool helped
The casual misogyny is....high
SA'd tossed like a rag doll
Ok full dance number in the mall with their advance
Shopping
And the song is like a sitcom , narrating the story
Close up cuts remain on their very black
Pupil-less very predatory eyes throughout
There are telepathically communicating and it sounds like dolphins and whales which is a nice touch
They are using sex (obvs they are sirens) to sell themselves but they i believe have already told people they are siblings so there's incesty vibes they are throwing out
One of the girls has already taken a shine to a boy fingers crossed he dies a grisly death
Ritual hump, kneeing in the buttocks for luck???
Equally opportunity dry humping of all employees
Don't touch me 🤣 the older sister
They are singing obviously in the night club???
Seriously it's a bar, there's a full restaurant, it's a strip club, it's got a house band, it looks like a drag joint
What would these be called in Poland?
Okay the girls jumped in the giant fish bowl for the grand finale
Not only is kissing a band member on stage bad for business
Aren't you going to eat him later??
I think silver is the young red and gold is the older brunette
The young women course are slender in the model drug addict prepubescent aesthetic
Um is this a forth wall explanation song or do they literally have hypnosis powers
Finally some teeth
She's lementing her desires presumably to eat humans
This can be read as victim blamey young girls know what they are doing thing tbd on that once we finish the film
Gold did straight up hypnotise some guy
Missed w what silver saw through the peep hole
Somebody giving silver a cigarette and offering a vagina???
Obviously fish aren't smokers nor are singers
Direct reference to the little mermaid???
Who's this guy they keep flashing to?
Removed the belly button too but kept the boobs? I mean male gaze but the mammalian parts?? Like boobs are
Um do mermaid scales grant wishes in polish lore??
Good guy won't fuck but will accept head??
The duo name is officially the lure
Peak stardom
They are making out for the crowd i will take this time to remind you they are sisters
Crowds officially enthralled
Another eye shot but ... They didn't look inhuman?
Head of talent is equal opportunity kissing the band
Finally the guy in person
Two hooks to the head
Look now the fishman is also being creepy
Was that lost in translation? Why would he marry someone tonight?
This underwater patriarchy thing is ridiculous mermaids are matriarchal
The poleesuh
Are onto her
And hopscotch dance number cops and robbers
Charlies angels
I will restate for the record i do not understand camp...like AT ALL
Now she's sleeping with the cop
Very camp lesbian mermaid scene
Former top singer is fantasizing about mermaid girls who already slept with the guy she is sleeping with and also the band kid???
In case it was unclear this is a full musical there are more songs than dialogue and several dance numbers
The "sexualization" of them men suck as it is is done in a comedic manner
Silver is asking about being a real girl, doing fun human stuff and the older band/club people said no you should continue to do slave labor we will take your money and no roller skating for you
Mermaid fight, turned into collaboration dance song?
Two punches
Casual violence against women but also that a human could ko a mermaid is nuts
Rolled up into carpets
Tossed back into the ocean
Law and order SVU
And not the young one fights the old one because his lil fish not really girlfriend is in the sea
The older woman breaks it up and is ALSO punched in the face and also ko'd
Very casual violence against women yet none of them can fight
Even if the mermaids eat every single man in the tri-city area it won't compensate for all the casual/ norminilization of misogyny & violence against women
They ate somebody
She's IVing the young man, he got beat that bad?
And the old guy has diabetes
So they are all modern dancing? Their pains??
But fine for the next show
She came back and bit off the finger of the guy who punched them
He hit them square in the face without emotion as a tactical decision and they were out then in rugs we didn't get any emotional response
The main whines and golden looks on with an evil grin
Mens violence against women is casual regular and normal , unemotional logical
Women's violence against men is unexpected unnecessarily cruel and vindictive
Then to drive that home thru go join the rival mermaid band???
It's especially evil because now they are in a playboy bunny photoshoot??
Triton is the bad merman name
Silver is going to cut her tail off to get a pussy 😮‍💨
She will of course lose her voice
Pussy transplant
Who's that's dismembered girl next to her??
Who cares??
Also shes doing it without anesthesia
Oh this human girl is alive and getting a mermaid tale?
Is it a girl power trade 🥺🥺 these women being dismembered by men without anesthesia?
Didn't even really see if the girl got her tail she was also naked too no surgical gown
Wheel chair
Boy is very excited about her new vagina
Didn't like the fishy one
Oh she looks like shes having fun with the zero foreplay and the pained expression
A whole entire slasher level of blood because
What am i to make of this ? Band boy has inhuman sized cock?
Vagina donor has never had sex and vagina will spurt blood during what eas otherwise seen as tame pg13 level thrusts?
Sex is inherently violent to women as shes bad for wanting to get laid and nows shes bleeding and if you want sex you will die of blood loss
Literally what's the takeaway here for this scene???
She has lost her voice
Gold is standing by her sister
Band boy has already moved on after what would be a gratuitous amount of blood for a brutal r@pe scene let alone a virginity loss
He immediately tossed her scale away
At least he's not a cheater?
Yea they're marrying
White suit and white dress
After a make out session
Hours after that bloody show and less than 24hrs out from her leg/pussy surgery
She's not seafoam
Okay she has to eat him before sunrise
I've neglected to mention everyone is drunk or high this entire film
Inviting her to the wedding is wild, i think this is literally the same day
Now they are dancing
Peak male ego
Dance with the girl you just forced to have surgery with violated and dumped
Ah men
And shes going to turn into seafoam for him
Because women love abuse
Embracing the abuse
Sis sees the whole thing and is of course overly emotional and murders him
Because women who accept/ embrace abuse are sweet and content to die at the hands of men and women who are not are shrieking violent hags with no emotional regulatory skills
She jumps in the water
Fin
Well I definitely should have watched this earlier now I need a pallet cleanser for this buffet of misogyny

Wishy- Triple Seven (WINSPEAR)
Tumblr media
Welcome to the debut album of Wishy. Hot off the heels of two great EPs, high school friends Kevin Krauter and Nina Pitchkites are the main songwriters out of Bloomington, Indiana. Been a fan of Kevin’s over the years, but Nina adds a nice touch of dream pop-inspired tunes. Dimitri Morris on guitar and vocals, Mitch Collins on bass, and Conner Host on drums fill in the rest of the band. The album was produced by Ben Lumsdaine (another Bloomington alum) and Kevin Krauter; mixed by Ben Lumsdaine; and mastered by Greg Orbis at another Midwest studio, Chicago Mastering. “Sick Sweet” kicks things off with a blast of guitars and synths. Kevin takes on the lead vocals here. Check out the video:
youtube
Nina takes over on the title track, “Triple Seven,” a swirl of sound that you just don’t want to end. Beautiful angelic backup vocals fade into this dream pop gem. Watch here:   
youtube
”Persuasion” is another slam of bombarding guitars. Beautiful vocals interplay between the two. Imagine New York’s Ivy on speed and you’ll get the idea. Next up, “Game,” is another distorted guitar blast with cool harmonic interplay between the two singers. “Love On The Outside” features Kevin singing again over a warped acoustic guitar sound until the rest of the band kicks in. Here’s the video:
youtube
“Little While” begins as a twittering orchestra and then settles into a dream pop beauty with Nina’s chilling vocals. Up next, “Busted,” is a straight-up indie rocker from Kevin with a mash-up of guitars. “Just Like Sunday” slows things down a bit, but with nice beats and jangle guitar. Catch the video:  
youtube
“Honey” brings things back up to speed with Kevin singing and power chords galore. The album ends with “Spit,” another song filled with harmonic bliss between the two, only this time it’s a sludge-filled blast of guitars and a pounding rhythm section. (And watch out for the guitar solos near the end.) Recorded the same time as the Paradise EP, (apparently, there are still a few more songs available), there’s no stopping Kevin and Nina’s Wishy. They’ve been popping up on many “bands to watch” lists and you need to join the hype. Very disappointed I missed them at the Logan Square Arts Festival in July. Luckily, there are some upcoming shows I hope to catch. Care to join me?   ERIC EGGLESON

Wishy Announces Third Single 'Sick Sweet' Ahead of Highly Anticipated Debut LP 'Triple Seven'
Tumblr media
In just over a month, Wishy will release their debut LP, *Triple Seven*, an album poised to be one of the year's most anticipated debuts. Following their 2023 *Paradise* EP, which garnered critical acclaim from outlets like Pitchfork, the New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Stereogum, the album (out August 16th on Winspear) has already spawned two singles, "Love On The Outside" and the title track "Triple Seven," both receiving high praise from the press. In June, the band announced an extensive fall tour across the US, UK, and EU, featuring dates with American Football and Guided By Voices, as well as appearances at Pitchfork London and Hopscotch. Today, they are sharing a third single from their LP, a track titled "Sick Sweet." Triple Seven is a vibrant blend of alternative music history, featuring elements of shoegaze, grunge, and power-pop. While their debut EP leaned heavily into dream pop and shoegaze, band leaders Kevin Krauter and Nina Pitchkites aimed for a louder, more aggressive, and fun sound on their LP, Wishy. This evolution is evident in the dynamic alt rock track "Sick Sweet," their heaviest release yet, which strikes a balance between raucous energy and Krauter's penchant for blissfully hazy melodic pop. Krauter explains: "This song is about wanting something or someone despite doubts or misgivings, and laying it all on the line to see it through. I was inspired by an Oasis interview where Liam Gallagher talked about his lyrics being about 'just living life' and 'just going for it.' That’s the energy I put into this song." The track is accompanied by a music video directed by Nate Kahn, who captured vignettes of the band during their recent tour with Narrow Head, including their off day at the beach in Florida. Full details of Wishy's upcoming tour dates can be found below.

Cornelius presents: "Too Much Love for Sauna (Falling Deep)"
Post-Modern Pop artists Cornelius releases bewitching New Single and Vide.  
Tumblr media
Forthcoming Ambient LP Ethereal Essence Out June 26
youtube
Stream/Order Ethereal Essence here
“Too Much Love for Sauna” unfurls like a fractal melody from an otherworldly music box, layering delicate tones and textures organically, enveloping audiences in a sublime experience. The piece also has a fun story behind it. 
“This song was written for the TV drama, SADO, and has been used as the opening theme since 2019,” Cornelius says. “In the past few years, there has been an unprecedented sauna boom in Japan, and the original manga was the spark that ignited it. I was a fan of the artist and decided to take charge of the project. The single we are distributing this time is a newly arranged version that expresses the psychedelic ecstasy of the sauna more deeply.”
A noticeable shift in direction from his famed hopscotch pop style to a more meditative and abstract approach, Ethereal Essence marks Cornelius’ first full-length album since the critically acclaimed Dream in Dream (2023), and Mellow Waves (2017) LPs. Dream in Dream’s singles and videos – "Change and Vanish”, “Sparks” and "All Things Must Pass" – were received adoringly throughout 2023. 
Reflecting on the evolution of his sound, Cornelius explains, “I gathered songs that have an ethereal feel from the various purposes for which they have been produced over the past few years and I decided to make one album. With the current strange situation in the world and the stressful social life, I feel comfortable with something that fits into the introspection and spiritual world. Last year, I exhibited my work at Ambient Kyoto in Kyoto with Ryuichi Sakamoto and others.” In addition to Sakamoto and Cornelius (whose collaboration wowed audiences and critics), the prestigious festival also included Shiro Takatani, Buffalo Daughter, and Seiichi Yamamoto, a noteworthy lineup overflowing with genius highlighting Kyoto’s significance in the world of music and art.

Cornelius’ current focus is nothing new. The songwriter, producer, and performer has been a fan of ambient music his whole life and includes Raymond Scott’s “Soothing Sounds for Baby,” Hiroshi Yoshimura’s Music for Nine Postcards, Jonny Nash’s Exit Strategies, The Sweet Enough’s Marshmallow, and Steve Hiett’s Down on the Road by the Beach among his favorite ambient albums of all time. 
The upcoming 30th anniversary Dream in Dream World Tour features Cornelius’ 20-year compatriots Hirohisa Horie on keyboards (also a support member for Yukihiro Takahashi’s Yellow Magic Orchestra) and Yuko Araki on drums (also a member of Yoko Ono Plastic Ono Band along with Cornelius); and Buffalo Daughter’s Yumiko Ohno on Moog and bass, who joined Cornelius in 2016 on his indelible Fantasma World Tour. Cornelius and his band will be playing songs from his five previous albums since 1992, beginning with the landmark LP Fantasma. He encourages old fans and new to experience this next wave in sound in person. “We are grateful to everyone who has supported our activities. Please come and see us.”
