I Don't Wanna Face The Music

by hereforh

Louis likes to think he's a pretty normal, typical lad. He likes spending nights at the pub with his mates, he loves football and is very close to his family. So when he moves to London for uni, he doesn’t think much will be different.

Until he makes these news friends who are nothing like his mates back home and change his life for the better - and this one boy who messes with his head from the get go and makes him question everything he has every thought about himself.

if i had a dollar for every time i saw a comment along the lines of "this is what the live-action should've been" under a monster high cosplay video, i would literally be so rich???

One of my genuine favourite things about Halloween season is that specific flavor of jaunty music that's just a big clusterfuck of theremin and xylophone, some spooky groovy shit with them tubular bells and some questionable quality pipe organ synth

Everybody's fuckin around in minor keys and thinking "Man I should throw some harpsichord in this jaunty little bop" and it's a good decision every time

I fucking love that shit, dude

Can you do prompt 34 for araleyn?

I feel like its a problem in general that people are obsessed with trying to "solve" art, assigning one interpretation as the definitive answer to a piece as a whole (a lot of what game theory does, all those "episode of X explained!" videos, fandom as a whole) but music as a medium has got it the worst

[fionnaskyborn]

wish i could stop losing stuff irretrievably. some hardware error emptied out my recycle bin a couple days earlier. just to shit on a day i'd spent being genuinely happy about the art i create. i guess. i'm tired of compromises, sick of lying that "it wasn't that important anyway", and throwing up at "oh well, can't be helped".

and yet. and yet. despite every pain, both major and minor, the love is there. the love is still there. guess i've just somehow miraculously hit that point (or gone past it a long time ago) where every grievance beyond a certain amount hurts an unspeakable amount more than it should. and it stacks. probably went overboard a while back. don't know when.

still, i adore my project. still got someone in whose arms i feel safe. hope i'll get out someday. hope i'll get a win.

The sleepover scene always breaks my heart 😭 literally me at 12

[msdk-00]

god when i go into yearning after a failed romantic endeavour im scraping the walls howling at the moon coughing up hairballs like i'm grateful for the experience but the Aftermath of horrific feelings for months and months makes me wanna throw up. i can logically be like it never would've been forever for reason a b and c but still i see their face and wanna delete every social media ever and live in a monastery until i'm normal about them again

anxiety started to spike high (from pre concert excitement and nerves) but for once!

i was able to snack a v little bit (u know my anxious ass is worried abt bathroom access/locations as usual lmao so I'm trying not to consume much until the show is over), got my Lamotrigine taken (bc god forbid i miss a day, then i have to start back at square one and take my dose down to the lowest again which doesn't feel 100% true? but im not arguing with the doc lol)

And let myself have an edible and like. i can feel the anxiety and nerves just under the surface, like milk on the oven boiling and it gets that thin skin over top? it's like the anxiety is little spikes trying but failing to poke completely thru the skin so far (why are there spikes in the milk in this metaphor? don't worry abt it bc i don't know either, this is just where it ended up; we took this journey together)

and like yeah that's not perfect but. it's such a lovely difference, even if I'm still more tense and prone to an anxiety attack rn than I'd like to be. But even this is so much better than it was off the Lamotrigine, and it's nice to see it might be working again (tho i also attribute Housemate's help and going with me to the concert tonight with helping me on this, it's like. if my brain sees i have someone new to the event who might need my help navigating, it lowers the Anxious Mode and heightens the Caretaker/Dad Friend Mode enough for me to be braver than usual. I want aer to have as good a time as possible, and we're keeping it v low key with like. not being up in the main pit, staying to the back and planning to hang out some in the venue halls while the openers play, so the GA/pit doesn't overwhelm either of us, tho it seems the metal scene out here is p chill from what we can tell? But yeah. I can't always be brave for myself, but i can do it for a friend. and also partially for the fact that I'll be in the same room as Avatar for at least 2-3 hours aksnfkfngn)

i hate that youtube videos and tutorial titles are all like you're drawing this wrong! you're doing your hair wrong! the way you are living is wrong! do it in a way that is aesthetically pleasing to the masses ! be unhappy with yourself and spend more money!

[supercantaloupe]

the thing is i have always been the type to get very Frustrated when i repeatedly am not able to do something and get ery Worked Up About It in the process. and also the type to get really embarrassed when i'm visibly struggling in front of other people, which only makes me more frustrated and worked up etc. so uh. rehearsal was not. great for me tonight

[confinesofmy]

they're totally breaking up sometime in the next month if not sooner lol. he was such a dick today. went to town and he was rude to me, which she audibly did not appreciate. rude to her, to the point where multiple times she firmly told him to stop. said he was hungry then said it would be fine then refused to eat at home and repeatedly brought up how we should've stopped in town. kept going off on his own/choosing solitary activities/acting annoyed when we tried to loop him in or get involved with him. cooonstant judgy little comments. and then we started playing video games together he was soooo uncooperative and clearly didn't even want to play. what a bag of dicks lmao.
