I Think I Love You (Joe Elliott x Reader)
A/N: Hey y'all, as promised here's the Joe one shot. Feeling super nervous rn, considering this is the first time I’ve posted my writing on here. I'd love to hear your feedback so I can improve on my writing. I'm open to any and all constructive criticism and encourage it! Anyways… I won't keep stalling for any longer. I hope y’all enjoy this one!!
Warnings: Mentions/references to making out/smut but nothing actually explicit happens.
Ps, if you really want to feel the vibe of this one shot I'd suggest listening to "I Think I Love You" by The Partridge Family while reading this💗
With love, Kris<3

Sheffield, 1982
I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up
The poor guy had been tossing and turning all night.
Joe couldn't get his mind off of you.
Just the thought of you disrupted his sleep.
From something that keeps knocking at my brain
In his eyes you were perfect. You were the only girl in the world he wanted. Of course that also meant you were the one girl, who in his eyes, had got away. The one he could never have. Why? Because you were his best friend.
For months upon months he was stuck in this endless cycle.
It went a little something like this:
He'd think about you so much so that he'd convince himself that he had to go tell you.
Then he'd work up the courage to say it.
He'd find the perfect time to confess but then start to reconsider his choice. He always would hold it back when he decided it wasn't a good idea after all.
He'd then go back to thinking about how perfect of a moment it would've been and mentally kick himself for not saying a thing.
And the cycle would repeat.
It went on and on and on.
Before I go insane
As a result of this, he hadn't had a good nights sleep in a while.
That night was different though.
I hold my pillow to my head
Something had finally snapped.
And spring up in my bed
He had known how he felt for a long time. But he had never actually come to terms with the gravity of it.
Screaming out the words I dread
I think I love you
All at once it hit him like a brick wall. He realized he truly loved you.
-
On the rare occasion that your best friend felt brave he'd indirectly hint at something more. After a while of not getting any knowing looks from you he just assumed that you were oblivious to all of his side comments. You in fact were not.
After a while you started to get impatient with him.
You wanted to shout it out loud, right in his face, "Dear God Joe just ask me out already!"
Recently those side comments from Joe had stopped. You would've said something to him if he hadn't stopped. But now you weren't even sure if he still cared, or if he had just given up and moved on. It would be stupid to lose your friendship over this. So you stayed quiet just to be safe.
It was a shocker to both you and everyone else how you two hadn't gotten together already.
There were so many signs. It was only a matter of time.
-
This morning
I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
Another night of restless sleep had gone by. It was worse than usual, so much so that by dawn he had already come up with a plan.
He knew what he had to do. He was going to tell you the only way he could. In the only unique love language he knew, through music.
If he was gonna do it, it had to be big and flashy. Joe wouldn't have it any other way.
He couldn't let his feelings lie dormant anymore. No, he thought, this time will be different. This time I won't back out.
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself
And never talk about it
He had kept his feelings to himself for the past few years. Joe wanted to tell you, he really did. But in the back of his mind he worried about ruining the relationship you guys already had.
Joe loved you so much that he was willing to hide his feelings just so you wouldn't walk out on his life. He didn't want to lose you over some feelings he had. Ones that he couldn't guarantee you'd reciprocate. So, he believed it was best to keep it to himself.
And did not go and shout it
When you walked into the room
I think I love you
Joe didn't just think, he knew.
Joe was dead set on what he had to do. He just needed to get a few things sorted. First off was getting the guys on board with it.
-
Joe gathered his closest friends together. They were less like bandmates and more like brothers to him. He knew they would help him out. All it would take was a bit of convincing.
"Can you please help me out?" Joe pleaded.
He assured them about his plan.
"It's just one, and it'll be real quick."
"Alright, fine," the bassist answered for them all, "What song is it anyways?"
Joe told them his song of choice and they all gave him odd looks.
Sav cocked an eyebrow at the song choice.
"The Partridge Family? Are you serious?"
Phil chimed in, "You really think a band like us should be playing a song like that?"
Steve rested his hand on his head, "Everyone's going to make fun of us."
Joe tried to defend his choice, "You know it can't be that bad. We're playing in a pub for god's sake. It's not like the whole world's gonna be there."
The rest of the guys seemed unconvinced.
"Come on guys, you said you'd help me. Please?"
He kept on.
"Just help a bloke out, alright?"
And on.
"Please I promise I'll never ask for anything ever again."
Rick half-whispered to Sav.
"You know he's never gonna let it up. Not until we say yes at least."
Sav knew he was right. Joe wouldn't stop bugging them until they agreed.
"Okay fine, but it's only one song."
Joe nodded enthusiastically, "Mhm yeah, just one."
It was settled, they would help. Now all that was left was to get you there.
-
I think I love you
So what am I so afraid of?
The thought of telling you was exciting to him, yet terrifying.
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for
His heart raced as he drove over to your place.
I think I love you
Joe was already cheery about just the thought of you going.
Isn't that what life is made of?
He hadn't felt this excited over something in a long time.
As he pulled onto your street he tapped on the steering wheel. It was due to the mix of both the pure joy of excitement and an ever growing anxious feeling that was building up inside.
Though it worries me to say
That I've never felt this way
-
Believe me
You really don't have to worry
"You'll be there tomorrow, right?"
"Of course," you answered with a wide smile, "You guys go on at eight, right?"
God he loved your smile. It could light up any room.
He melted just looking at you. Anytime you spoke to him he lost all train of thought.
You snapped your fingers to get his attention.
"Joe?"
"Oh- um, yeah. Eight, we'll be on then."
I only wanna make you happy
After you said yes he began going through that same cycle again. He started doubting his whole plan. Wondering if it would work or not.
There was no way he could back out now though. For the past few days they'd been practicing that song, not stopping until Joe felt satisfied with the final product.
He wondered if you would stick around after all of this.
Would you tell him to "beat it" and move on with your life without him? Or would you stay there by his side?
And if you say, "Hey, go away"
I will
Joe crossed his fingers, hoping for the best outcome possible.
But I think better still
I'd better stay around and love you
He was determined to make sure you stayed.
Do you think I have a case?
Let me ask you to your face
Do you think you love me?
Tomorrow night he'd get the long awaited answer to that question.
I think I love you
-
You arrived early, wanting to make sure you were right up front. This is what you always did. It was your way of showing Joe you cared. You mindlessly tapped your fingers against the small stage, waiting for them to come out.
Meanwhile Joe was there fixing himself up in their tiny dressing room, (if you could even call it one). It was fairly small. The owner had "renovated" one of their small back rooms into a "dressing room".
He stood in front of the vanity mirror fluffing out the rest of his hair. Joe was doing any and everything in his power to keep his mind off of the plan. He looked at his reflection as he told himself to just smile and hope for the best. Whatever happens happens, it was no longer in his control anymore.
After waiting for what felt like forever the guys finally came out on stage. As Joe got on he stopped in front of you and sent you a quick smile before turning his attention to the other patrons of the bar.
You cheered along the whole time as they went through their usual set list. It didn't matter how many times you'd seen them, you were always captivated by their showmanship.
Time always seemed to fly by whenever you watched them play.
By now you had memorized their set list and were almost sure they were closing out now, having just played Wasted. They always saved it for last and were just about ready to leave.
That was before Joe had something to say.
The cheering in the room died down as Joe placed the mic back in its stand. He adjusted it right to his level, getting ready to speak.
"We have one last song for you all tonight. We're gonna take a little change of pace if that's alright with you."
He took a glance around at his bandmates, giving them all a quick nod before adding on.
"This one goes out to a very special someone. Someone who means the world to me."
His eyes drifted down to the people in the front row, moving one by one until eventually landing onto you.
"This is for you, Y/N."
Taking one last deep breath in he calmed himself before counting the guys in.
All of them started in, "Ba, ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba, ba."
You giggled at the ridiculousness of it before fully realizing the gravity of this song.
You knew what it was the second they sung the first line.
You hadn't heard it in such a long time and had practically forgotten about it, forgotten how much you loved it. It was always one of your favorites, and Joe had known that for a while now.
All thoughts completely left your mind when Joe began to sing.
"I'm sleeping,
And right in the middle of a good dream,
Like all at once I wake up,
From something that keeps knocking at my brain,
Before I go insane,
I hold a pillow to my head,
And spring up in my bed,
Screaming out the words I dread."
The rest of the guys joined in on the next line.
"I think I love you!”
This was his confession.
His eyes couldn't help but drift towards you.
"I think I love you."
While preforming Joe tried to keep his attention with the rest of the audience equal, but he kept on letting his eyes go back to you, like some sort of magnet that couldn't be pulled apart.
If him dedicating this song to you wasn't the most obvious thing, you'd say his looks alone were enough to tell you that this was for you.
You couldn't help but feel a smile tugging at your lips. Your cheeks started to feel sore from the excessive smiling.
"So what am I so afraid of?"
Every time his eyes caught yours you felt your heart skip a beat.
"I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for."
Joe really did care about you, deep down inside he did, he always did.
Soon the song came to a close with their repeated "I think I love you's" becoming more and more quiet as they faded off.
They all came front and center, taking a short bow together as the crowd in the bar cheered them on.
The girl next to you had to have already been out of it.
"You're a lucky girl, huh?" she practically yelled into your ear. You couldn't blame her though, she was standing directly in front of an amplifier the whole time.
It snapped you out of the trance you seemed to have slipped into.
"Oh-uh yeah," you smiled.
"Look," she said, swinging her arm to point at the guys in front of you.
The rest of them were making their way off, leaving through the stage left.
Joe was the last one still up there.
You stayed staring at him in disbelief, not even knowing what to do. He had finally said it... or well sung it, same difference. What was there you could do?
He tilted his head to your right gesturing off to the side of the stage, to what you only could assume led to their dressing room.
He flashed you a quick smile before sending a subtle wink your way.
If it was anybody else, you'd say you were surprised by their actions, but for Joe? Well that's a different story.
With both of her hands the girl next to you latched onto your arm.
"Ooh looks like someone's gettin' some action tonight!"
Your cheeks flushed red and you prayed to god no one else heard.
Immediately you turned to Joe, hoping he hadn't heard the girl's remark.
His eyes darted away from you. Before Joe left you saw him trying to suppress his chuckling, but ultimately failing. His smug smile was the last thing you saw as he walked off the stage.
Of course he had to have heard it, why wouldn’t he?
The girl let go of you when you told her you had to leave. She told you something along the lines of, "Have fun tonight!" before you left.
You went around the corner finding the door that you guessed led backstage. The door was locked from the inside and there was no way of getting in. You didn't worry though, knowing that the guys would come out soon enough.
After a couple minutes of waiting by the door an ecstatic Rick swung it open. The rest of the guys shuffled their way out, but with their lead nowhere in sight.
You turned your attention towards the last member to come out.
"Is he?"
"Third door to the right," Sav answered before you could even finish asking your question.
"Thanks."
He gave you a warm smile, still holding the door open for you, letting you slip through to the back hallway.
"See you in a bit," he said, letting the door shut behind you.
Even though there was no reason to, you counted to yourself as you passed by each of the doors.
One...
Two...
You felt your heart race as you got closer to the last one.
...Three
You stood there for a moment trying to see if you could hear anything on the other side. You didn't and knew it was time to stop stalling.
After taking a deep breath to compose yourself you rested your hand on the cool doorknob.
Here goes nothing.
You slowly opened the door as quietly as you could and after shutting it watched the scene play out before you.
He stood there in front of a vanity mirror facing away from you. He hadn't noticed you but you could see his face clear as day through the reflection.
Joe was humming a tune while brushing his hair. You immediately recognized what song it was.
He was humming the one he had just played. His tone was full of pure joy.
Once he was done he ran his fingers through his hair, trying to shape it some more.
The man in front of you looked fine already but seemed to be getting ready for something more.
He adjusted the collar of his shirt before picking up a small bottle of cologne. Adding just a spray to his neck and one to his wrist before turning around.
Joe's humming abruptly stopped and his eyes widened.
"Oh… you're here?"
You'd been caught staring.
At this point any embarrassment that you could have had got washed away whenever he decided to dedicate that song to you.
"Sorry, I-"
"Don't be," he cut you off.
He set the bottle down and slowly approached you, seeming to take his time with it.
You watched carefully as he took every painfully slow step.
You didn't know where to start, but knew you had to say something.
"You guys were great."
"Thank you."
You had to bring it up, you couldn't bare to wait any longer.
"That song you played. Did you?"
You stopped, taking a quick glance around, noting that it was just the two of you in the room, before finishing.
"Did you really mean that?"
His gaze softened at the question.
"Yes."
He paused before stepping closer, leaving barely any room between the two of you.
"I meant every word of it."
Your heart sped up with every word he spoke.
"Y/N I mean it."
His hand moved up to tuck the loose hair behind your ear.
"I think I love you."
You had been longing to hear those words for such a long time. Never in your lifetime did you think it would happen, but it finally did.
He said that to you, and you only.
After all this time, you heard those three words you loved the most.
"I love you."
His hand moved down to cup the side of your face. You lightly nudged your face against his warm palm. Closing your eyes you took a deep breath in, wanting to smell more of the cologne that rested on his wrist.
When you opened your eyes his hand moved down to carefully tilt your chin up.
Your eyes faced him now.
"I love you too."
This was the moment. The moment you waited forever for.
Heart racing and eyes wide you both slowly drew in closer. It felt like the longest seconds of your life, waiting for him to connect with you.
You looked into his emerald green eyes before letting yours flutter closed.
Soon enough you felt the feather light touch on your lips. It felt like heaven to you.
You brought one hand up, letting you fingers run through his light brown hair.
You felt Joe's other hand reach down to the small of your back, gently pulling you closer into him.
All you could do now was relax your body and take in the overwhelming smell of his cologne.
After what felt like an eternity, the two of you finally pulled away from one another. You already missed the feeling of his soft lips on yours.
You refused to back up from him, leaving hardly any gap between you two.
His warm breath fell on your lips as he mumbled, "You don't know how long I've wanted this."
"Me too."
Joe's hands dropped down and his fingers latched onto the belt loops of your jeans before lightly tugging at them, pulling you closer.
Your hips were pulled forward and you lightly bumped against him before falling back and resting mere inches from him.
Joe's eyes quickly scanned over your face as if he was looking for a cue of some sort.
Though you had never seen this look on him before, you knew exactly what it meant.
"Please Y/N."
That short plea was more than enough to get you going.
Your arms almost instinctively wrapped around his neck, letting him know you were okay with it.
"Come on," he said, slightly lowering himself to reach the back of your legs. He lifted you up and stepped back to sit in the armchair placed in front of the mirror
Your legs were pinned close on either side of him, resting between his outer thighs and the arms of the chair.
Without warning the two of you crashed into each other once more, desperate for each other's touch.
He hummed into the kiss, making you relish in the feeling he gave you.
-
You didn't know exactly how much time had gone by, but you knew a decent amount had passed.
Slowly, you drew away from his neck and let out a shaky breath, still wanting more. It had now been a little while since you first got in there and you knew it would only be a matter of seconds until someone barged in looking for two of you.
Your eye contact with him continued as you calmed your breathing.
Lightly pushing yourself away, resting your hands on his stomach, you finally spoke up.
"We should go. They're pry wondering what's taking so long."
Joe thought about it for a second. Seemingly weighing the pros and cons of both staying and going.
"Who cares? Let 'em wonder."
You planted one last quick kiss before making an offer.
"How about later, yeah?"
A wicked smile spread across his face, already thinking of what was to come, "Yeah."
You pulled yourself off of him and tried to fix the newfound wrinkles in your clothes. After getting up he did the same and you stayed there fixing yourselves up.
Just as the two of you were about to walk out you stopped him.
"Wait."
He turned to you.
"You’ve got a little…," you trailed off as you brought your thumb up to the corner of his mouth.
"Something," you finished as you wiped the last bit of red lipstick off of him.
Feeling content with how the two of you looked, you set off out of the dressing room and back down the hallway.
He held the door open for you and led you out into the main room.
You both scanned your eyes around the bar floor trying to find the guys.
Joe grabbed onto your hand and held on as he guided you through the crowd. He led you over to the round booth where they were all seated. As you approached the booth he gave your hand a light squeeze before letting go.
It took only one glance at the you two for the teasing to start.
"Woah!" Phil exclaimed, "What happened in there?"
"Nothing," Joe replied making his best attempt at a deadpan tone.
"You sure about that?"
The rest joined in on by adding "ooohs," sounding exactly like a group of kids in elementary who just found out one of their classmates was called into the principals office.
This was only the beginning of the never ending teasing that was to come.
Phil raised his eyebrows, "Just couldn't wait until you got home, huh?"
Joe rolled his eyes at his bandmates teasing.
Sure you had been gone for a bit, but you knew there had to have been something else causing their reactions.
You looked between yourself and Joe quickly noticing the culprit.
Though you had made sure to get all your lipstick off his face you forgot to check the collar of his shirt. The sloppy kisses had caused you to completely miss his neck in some spots and just get his shirt. The shirt in question being a white one didn't help your case.
There was no sense in trying to rub it off now, and not like you could anyways.
Rick and Sav scooted around to make room for you and Joe.
As you sat down you both noticed all the other guys were already starting their night off with their drinks in hand.
Joe looked around at each and every one of them, "You started without us, aye?”
"We waited for a little while, but you guys took too long," Sav replied.
Joe turned to face you, "How 'bout a round?"
You smiled, "Sure."

here’s a cowboy eddie thought inspired by listening to the dracula podcast. thinking about how eddie would totally say “that’s my brave girl”, about just about anything. learned a new skill? that’s my brave girl. did something you were nervous about? that’s my brave girl. had a whole nervous breakdown and are now all watery eyed in his lap? that’s my brave girl… he’d probably punctuate it with a kiss on the head, too.
anon ur brain is so big... full of incredible thoughts... luv it 🫶this one kinda got away from me lmao but i hope you like it anyway | fem!reader x cowboy!eddie, kind of suggestive at the end
****
"Missus, Missus!"
Henry skids to a stop in front of the bar, where you've been scrubbing at a sticky spot for the last five minutes.
You drop the rag into the bucket and wipe your forehead with the back of your hand.
"Ain't you s'posed to be in school, Henry Sherman?" you ask, hand on your hip.
"Aw, it's too hot for school, Missus," Henry whines. "'Sides, Mr. Porter gave me a dime to be the lookout for today. Guess who just rode in?"
"I dunno. Mr. Leland?"
Henry makes a face. "The postman? No, no. That ain't exciting. Guess again. You got one more guess."
You smile and lean against the bartop.
"Hmm... fastest gunslinger in the West?"
Henry nods eagerly. "Uh-huh! Mr. Hellfire's back!"
Your smile drops. "What? Henry, are you sure?"
Henry bounces on his toes. "Yes, ma'am! He just rode in ten minutes ago. Asked specifically for you. He's at the inn right now."
"Oh." You pat your skirt down like Mr. Hellfire's just walked in. "Uh, thank you, Henry. Here's a nickel."
You flip him a coin. Henry catches it happily.
"Alright! 'M gettin' a peppermint stick."
"Don't spoil your dinner," you say distractedly, sliding off your apron and walking around the counter to get your bag.
Henry hangs behind, drumming his fingers on the stool.
"Are you gonna marry Mr. Hellfire?"
You miss a step on your way out the door, catching yourself on the side of the building.
"What—why do you ask that, Henry?"
"'Cause you hang out with him a lot, even though people say he's bad."
"He ain't bad," you say softly. "People just talk too much."
"I know that," Henry says. "He brought me real cowboy boots for Christmas. Bad people don't give Christmas presents."
You chuckle and pat the top of Henry's head.
"No, most don't."
"He gives you lots of gifts too," Henry continues. "And Mr. Porter told me that men only give gifts to women they're gonna hitch their cart to."
You shake your head. "Henry, please don't repeat anything Mr. Porter says."
"Is it true?"
You roll your eyes. "I'm sure he thinks it's true."
"So you ain't gonna marry Mr. Hellfire? 'Cause I think it'd be real fine if you did. He's got a good horse and a big hat, and he's nice to me an' the other kids. And he brings us caramels!"
"Caramels? Don't buy peppermint sticks if he gave you caramels, Henry."
"I'm savin' those for later," he says, and you know he won't.
You go inside the inn. Eddie's hat is on the table next to him. His dark curls are pulled back into a ponytail. Sweat has gathered on his brow and in the dips of his collarbone. Your heart lurches. It's been a month since you'd seen him; you were starting to think Eddie would never come back.
Henry's sister, Sally, is sat at Eddie's feet, alongside a few other children. Eddie has his guitar out, quietly singing. You lean back on a table and listen to his crooning.
Henry eventually loses patience, though, and goes up to his sister hallway through the song.
"Sally, c'mon. Momma said we needa be home by supper."
Sally glances at her brother and pouts.
"He singin'," she says.
Eddie catches your gaze. You wave awkwardly. He beams and winks at you.
Lord, you're hungry for this man.
"I'll sing again tomorrow, Miss Sally," Eddie tells her sweetly, and drops a wrapped caramel into her tiny palm. "Any song you want. Alright?"
Sally seems to find this trade acceptable and holds Eddie's knee to stand. She walks to you and gives you a quick hug, then leaves with her brother.
"We wanna hear another song!" one boy shouts.
"Yeah, play it!"
Eddie looks at them, and you can tell his resolve will slip. Horses and kids, his only weaknesses.
"Y'know, last I checked, school isn't over," you say, brow raised. "Don't y'all have somewhere to be?"
They turn to you with wide eyes.
"Don't tell Teacher, please!"
You tilt your head at the door. "Then you'd all best get a move on, hm?"
They scramble for the door and you only feel a little guilty at the empty threat. But then Eddie stands, body long and lean, and you don't feel so bad.
"You run a tight ship, peach," he says, striding over to you.
He's always dressed in black. You've never seen him in any other color. If you'd been given any good sense, you might take that as a warning. Might heed the whispers that fly through town every time Eddie returns.
But you hadn't come into this world with any damn sense, and you don't intend to find any now.
"I've got to when Mr. Hellfire's in town," you say, leaning back on your hands. "You've made quite the reputation for yourself."
"Oh, I know," he purrs, leaning in close. "Brave girl, going toe-to-toe with the no-good devil that sweeps through."
Your heartbeat soars at Eddie's honeyed voice. He lightly presses his mouth to yours; barely a kiss. It leaves you breathless all the same.
"Ed—" you start, reaching for him.
Eddie takes your wrists in his hands, rubbing the insides with his thumbs, one leg between yours.
"Hm, baby? Whatcha need?"
"Want you to—"
He tilts his head. You anxiously look around, not wanting the innkeeper or anybody to catch you tangled up with the one person you definitely shouldn't be.
"Go on," Eddie says, breath tickling your neck. "My brave girl's gotta ask for what she wants."
"Want you to–to love on me."
"Ain't you sweet," he whispers, gently cupping the back of your neck. "Well, since my brave girl used her words so nice, of course I'll give her anything she wants."

Longass for the nights and days of life Chapter Eight RAGE Notes
I had a LOT of strong opinions on this one, babes. Oh ho boy it’s time.
-I thought the Olangi were absorbed into the Omaticaya and not other plains clans, I wonder if there’s a particular reason they weren’t in this fic… I'm always suspicious of every decision Lottie makes.
-Tonowari getting an invite to this gathering from Jake: nah.
-Listened to Cover Me In Sunshine on repeat reading this. That’s what Spider and Ninat were singing, I don’t make the rules.
-Jake fighting the English innuendo has to be every Na’vi hearing him speaking Na’vi every day. He has to be fucking it up in a way that makes it dirty some of the time.
-The heard stuff has me like, on the edge, I think it means some shit.
-The absolutely hilarious idea of Jake and Neytiri keeping maskless-only-human-left Spider around and thinking no one is gonna question it is so fucking funny to me. I also love them keeping their GOD CHILDREN secret. EYWA IS THEIR GOD WHO IS GOING AGAINST THIS? Like, if literally God blessed me with kids in an obvious miracle way to people that all super believe in God I’d be like, so this happened. Crazy right? Anyway- I also love that they didn’t discuss it beforehand, like they just figured it’d all be literally fine. They are so goofy and fucking stupid as fuck.
-Spider giving Neteyam bits of fruit makes me want to die! That’s aDORABLE! He is a PROTECTIVE older brother. They are not going to survive his kidnapping.
-Neytiri really came for Neteyam’s ass with that intro. "Here is my brave, cool, son, and my loser son who can't say hi."
-Ah, it’s because the Olangi are our dissenters it seems. I also really like this idea of an anniversary mourning period, I haven’t seen that yet. Every time I see a new idea in this fandom I get hard as a rock (figuratively), like I didn't even tHINK of this concept and I thought we were running out of new ideas.
-Love Jake public speaking king. I always forget he is a natural born leader and speaker.
-We love an Eytukan spirit tree moment. Although, now that I'm thinking about it, he may be the character that means the least to me.
-For some reason I cackled at Jake “the fire is too hot on my legs, Neytiri!” Sully.
-INFORMATIVE AND EYEOPENING IS THE WORST THING TO SAY EVER ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WASN’T A FULL LECTURE, THAT MEANS U HATED IT AND YOU’VE BECOME A WORSE PERSON BECAUSE OF IT. This man Tsantu is a school shooter that everyone saw coming.
-Lol Jake and Neytiri both feeling wary around Tsantu because he’s just them if they didn’t find each other to heal for. I am laughing through my tears. It's a great in depth character analysis though. Usually, I hate the concept of healing for each other, and I hate how much I adore codependency, but if you think about it all Na'vi are pretty codependent with their mates. Jake and Neytiri though? They are a whole 'nother level. They built their second chances on each other. Without the other they don't have the life they have, and they functionally have nothing to live for.
-Lol maybe he won’t assassinate someone and instead will be fixed by fucking Peyral.
-I didn’t ask this before, but MOE?? WHY IS HIS NAME MOE. IT MAKES ME LAUGH EVERY TIME I READ IT, I AM PICTURING ONE OF THOSE TERRIBLE HIPPIE GUYS ON SURVIVOR.
-Yeah, nope, we are still scared of Tsantu. He’s still school shooter vibes.
-Ah yup, there he goes, time to murder a whole family?? Sure that’ll fix it all buddy. Eywa knows and that’s why you haven’t seen ur mate, psycho. A lot of people have lost people and haven’t tried to murder families, my guy.
-LOL FAMILY ANNIHILATORS FEAR ONE MAN AND ONE MAN ONLY, AND IT’S SPIDER SULLY. HE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COUNT BUT HE’LL STOP A FAMILY ANNIHILATOR IN HIS TRACKS.
-Lol I get the point but to say this shit to Neytiri of all people is batshit. She has lost literally so much, I was waiting for her to be like “Hey, my sister was murdered in front of me, then my entire home was burned down and my father and my best friend died in front of me as well, what more do you need me to loose until we’re even buddy? Murder all three of my children and my mate and then we are good?? This isn’t the grief olympics, man. We aren’t competing.”
-Tbh they are all being A LITTLE FUCKING GENEROUS with this guy imo. I have always been of the mindset that trauma is a reason and not an excuse. This dude attempted to kill an entire family. Three children. Babies. The only reason he didn’t is because one kid woke up. He is not the first or the last person to have lost family, lost a spouse, lost a child, or even to have witnessed this specific loss personally. He’s not the first person to have wanted someone else to feel that pain with him. But making the decision to cause that same pain, attempting that, that’s unforgivable to me. That makes you no better than the person that did that to you. Idk man maybe it doesn’t fit here, but that’s my continuous domestic abuse argument. “Oh, he was abused too,” well, that makes it even worse to me that he knows what it feels like and still actually went to go cause that same feeling for someone else. It’s disrespectful to those who have been through the same trauma and don’t repeat the cycle. Anyways. No justice for Tsantu. Throw him to the wolves. Jail for attempted child murder? He also did assault a kid. The last fic I read with this premise only Jake was attacked (although much more successfully) and when I tell you the attacker was given the death penalty I am not joking. Forgiving this guy alone is crazy (although I understand the investment in moving on, and improving and being better than those who hurt us), bUT TO MAKE HIM AN AMBASSADOR?? Jesus fuck, I might as well hire a bank robber to be my accountant. How can we trust this aTTEMPTED CHILD MURDERER with any ambassador position on Pandora, after this he wouldn’t be allowed within 300 feet of schools.��
-Neteyam being shy and Spider being a clown is ADORABLE.
-BOB TRIPPING AND JAKE LAUGHING AT HIM IS SENDING ME. I'M WAITING FOR THE DAY THE FICS BECOME LIKE ROUGE ONE FICS WHERE K2S0 IS JUST A REALLY TALL AND UNEMOTIONAL GUY. BOB IS JUST A BIG GUY WITH A SKIN CONDITION WHO IS JAKE'S BEST FRIEND.
-SWAPPING KIDS MID FLIGHT, HILARIOUS AND CRAZY.
-I loved the repeated family version of the toruk chase, almost the same ending but with the kids laughing instead. It’s like they’re all having their out of danger relief moment, and this time Jake and Neytiri are the adults and seeing first hand how bonkers they were lol.

No liveblog for the first episode so have this little recap/review.
E1 "What can the damned say to the damned"
youtube
E2"Do you know what it means to be loved by Death"-livebog
Off the bat these light hearted smooth Jazz had me like huh? oh this gonna be different huh?
What is the significance of them perching on this statue. It looks like its of Pegasus-the winged horse in greek mythology but it also looks like it has another part to it. Now in one myth he was born from the blood of a beheaded woman!! Forshadowing?
I could listen to Louis speak in his Nola accent ALL DAY. Jacob love you are killing it. HospiTAL
Another interesting thing-he is losing his French after only 5+ years?Something something about distancing himself from Lestat
Also I hope that Staten Island reference was a nod to our other favorite vamps who live in Staten Island
my girl is a thief lol
"You tell me what it is to be a woman and Ill tell you what it is to be a woman " Ok COOK Claudia
Gauche!! our first looks and words from our coven!
Loumand keep repeating that they have been together 77 years . We get it babes. Daniel feels that way too. And the slight to Lestat-thats FORTY SEVEN more than he spent with him. So proud of that lol
THEY ARE DAMN NEAR SITTING ON TOP OF EACH OTHER!
Claudia and Louis really were damn baby birds. How the hell did they not sense these vampires stalking them in the open a few feet away lol
Louis little neck tie I cant!
Is that how you sell yourself yourself 🤝🏾A lie I told myself about myself
"Yeah" I like how both Louis and Armand later mimic Eric's voice saying it
"I don't know what I need- Maybe a new brain in my head" omg can they stop!! I do not want this!
My Louis is happy. Or at least not sad. And it looks good on him!
Claudia and Madeline's first interaction Its funny how its so antagonistic
I love how Claudia has PURPOSELY chosen to butcher the French accent. We see she can master languages and accents easily from their time in easter Europe. Another FU to Lestat. He would hate it lol
Why is Louis sooooo loopy in Dubai lol Is it the Sun? Is he fighting off the dead sleep? Something is up. Our young friends
I was a rougher thing🤝🏾 I was and armored thing
WHERE are the BRAVE MEN I WAS PROMISED?!
This background blur perspective bro. Something is WRONG is this Armand fucking with us too
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT (for amand at least) Im sick Louis looks scared shitless lol
I LOVE that lavender dress especially without the caplet
SANTIBABY has arrived and I'm sat! That monologue! it rivals Jacobs confession booth!
I have a mighty need to cosplay him Im sorry
Louis looking lovingly at Claudia as she enjoys the theatre mirroring Louis lovingly looking at Lestat as he enjoyed the Opera. Kill me now
Louis thinking WHY DO YOU DO THIS SANTIAGO?
Eglee being a astrology girly is so funny
Daniel KILLED me with his telenovella spiel
Vermouth and annihilation. Vermouth is said to tastes light, florally and even medicinal. Annihilation means complete destruction so aka Lestat tastes nasty lol. I wonder if Louis would agree. We cut from them quickly so...
Louis being surprised by Armand's tirst with the father and son!
I want to lick these two. We got to stay away from Estelle if we can😂
She felt their lust!oh man what was she feeling when Louis and Lestat were NM
Roget said :or maybe Lestat is sleeping" Does he know he is a vampire?! Has that knowlege been passed down through generations?
My Louis. I'm already in pieces
Sam bodied that letter reading. I fucking teared up.
But why the Brad Pit Blowout . He got his hair did in pugatorty and we can tell
LesDot de Lioncoouuurrr Ok sir we get it.
"Lestat Lestat Lestat" Daniel too?! Lol
Danny can dish it but he can't take but alsoLouis please! Leave my grandpa alone
I love how the trailers really tricked us into thinking so much. I though the letter reading scene was a revisit of the Ms Lily threesome scene. I thought the after math scene was Danny somehow driving as wedge between Loumand but it was just Louis being pissed/upset at Daniel for making a joke of his pain. And i know so many others thought the same. We really don't know shit!
Amand is Alice truthers IDK but I think Armand was there. How was could he know what Alice was thinking
Louis falling asleep might as well be him calling Santiago a buffoon lol Persona non grata- a person not favored or welcomed.
And nooo I didn't get the bottom of the Beret look for Claudia correct for my cosplay. We didn't have a full shot so I took a guess. Oh well. She is wearing dark pants for her bottoms. I wonder why she is in pants? Have they become more fashionable/acceptable for women to wear in the 40's ? Or is she rebelling against the fashion of the time?
The way I was squirming and squeeling when we first saw this estate scene at nycc 2023. I was like" am I a loumand girlie now??" I can't deny they look good together and have amazing chemistry
Another goddam beheading reference. What is this 4 now?!
My Dear American friend you are a horrible liar lol That little switch in Amands demeaner with DONT. Chills!
Louis please don't start pretending to fit in and like what these fiends are doing babes. He was so happy at the start of the episide but we leave him with a conflicted fake smile😞
This episode was WILD!I'm obsessed with the visual choices, the music choices, the jokes with the juxposition of these deeply dramatic moments. How is this all in one episode?! How did it not feel rushed with so much happening. It was brillant and has moved up to my 2nd favorite episode between both parts. I could never have predicted this tonal change. This is the best show around. I am cladia at the theatre- wide eyed and clapping furiously. Brava! Bravo!

Chapter 5: Broggy's Bitter Tears of Victory! The Conclusion of Elbaf
(episode 73)
"There's the signal. Today is very promising!"
"You're going?! Your wounds from that last battle still haven't-!"
"It's nothing! The conditions are the same for the both of us! Making excuses during a merciless fight to the death would spoil my name!"
"Hey! Wait, old guy! Don't go!"
"You can't go, Dorry-san! You need to keep still! You'll die if you push yourself too hard!"
"I, Warrior Dorry, am here... at the very least... I will fight to uphold the name of Elbaf!"
-
As the volcano continued shaking the island with repeated eruptions, Dorry forced himself up. Vivi stepped back when he grabbed his house. "Don't tell me he's-!" To her shock, he lifted the whole thing right off the ground.
"Awesome! He picked up that gigantic rock!" Luffy watched in awe.
Vivi distanced herself further. "Luffy-san!"
Before he could move away, Dorry slammed the rock right on him, so he was pinned down. "What're you doing, old guy?!" He struggled under the tremendous weight, and smacked the dirt. "Move this rock! Hey!"
"It can't be stopped," Dorry panted, as the cloud of dirt cleared up, "It was over a hundred years ago, when we started the battle. But running from a battle you've started, is the same as running from the title of "warrior."" He picked up his sword. "If I am no longer a warrior, I will no longer be me." He looked down at Luffy and Vivi. "I'm sorry I suspected you. This is the judgement given by... Elbaf, the God of War. I didn't have his divine protection. That's all."
Luffy seethed in anger, as he started walking away. "Gods, and divine protection, and all that have nothing to do with this! If a God told you to die, would you?! This duel has been interfered with!" Dorry stopped. "A duel that's been interfered with isn't a duel anymore! Isn't that right?!"
"Be quiet!" He ordered. "You've lived only a mere 10 or 20 years; you wouldn't understand the grand words of Elbaf!" He continued his trek.
"Who gives a crap about that?!" Lufy struggled some more, as he punched the boulder. "Hey! Move this thing! Hey! Old guy!" His shouts fell on deaf ears, as Vivi could only watch Dorry leave. "Hey! Old guy! Dammit! I can't move this!"
-
"Okay, Master Broggy! Go get 'im!" Usopp encouraged.
Broggy laughed heartily, with the sniper imitating him exceptionally. "You bet, Usopp! I'm gonna wipe the floor with him for sure this time!"
"Go get 'im, Warrior of Elbaf!" Broggy started heading off for the duel. "You can do it! You're strong! Strong! Strong! You're big! Big!"
"How can he keep doing this pointless fighting?" Nami watched him go.
"Don't call it pointless fighting, you idiot!" Usopp raged, stomping his foot, as Venus glared at her. "Broggy's a brave warrior of the sea, like the kind I'm aiming to be! What gives you the right-"
Nami stood up on the ground. "Anyway, let's return to the ship." She looked at the Log Pose. "Waiting a year for the Log to store up is out of the question! We need to wait on the ship for everyone, and come up with a plan." She started to leave.
"Hold it! Not so fast!" Usopp called after her. "I am absolutely useless in a fight against dinosaurs! As such, we cannot possibly traverse the jungle to reach our ship!"
"What was all that "brave warrior of the sea" stuff just now, then?" Nami interrogated.
"I meant that in the mental sense! I want to be a man who's proud of the way he lives!"
'No choice,' She thought, 'Luffy's group is at the other giant's house. Guess we'll head there.'
"Listen, Nami, Venus-chan. Even if I wind up losing everything someday, and greet death all alone on a deserted island, I'll proudly say this about my life as I die: "I am Usopp, brave warrior of the sea!"" He finally fell on his back.
"Yeah, yeah." Nami started dragging him by his satchel, with the strap around his neck. "Then will you hurry up, and be a dependable warrior?"
"You're choking him!" Venus removed the strap, and started pulling by his overalls instead. "Let's go!" She cheered.
"Oh... alright!"
-
As the duel was about to begin, Broggy laughed obliviously. "Dorry! How was your drink?! Hit the spot, didn't it?!"
"Yeah," He glared, "It tasted "Godly.""
Broggy laughed again. "You're so full of exaggerations! Let's go!" As they fought, he noticed something was off about his opponent. "What's wrong, Dorry?! You're a bit sluggish!"
"Don't be a fool! I'm the same as always!"
-
Meanwhile, Luffy was still struggling to free himself. "Move, you stupid thing! Come on!" He punched the ground in fury. "Just when it seemed like I met an awesome warrior!"
"Luffy-san..." 'Why would he go this far for a giant he just met?' Vivi wondered. 'He hardly seems like a criminal with a bounty on his head.'
"Who is it?! Who's putting a damper on the giants' fight?!"
After a beat of silence, Vivi had a realization. "Come to think of it... Karoo is gone!"
-
A scared Karoo was running from the earlier exchange, before stopping to catch his breath. "Oh? Isn't this the ugly bird the one princess always has with her?" He spit out his drink in fear.
"Yeah." He slowly turned around; Ms. Valentine, and Mr. 5 were right behind him. He screamed in fear, and started to back away. "Don't run away!" Mr. 5 ordered, and he stopped dead in his tracks. "We were lucky enough to meet out here after all. There's something we'd like you to do."
"That's right," Ms. Valentine added.
-
Meanwhile, Zoro had caught his watcher: another, bigger triceratops. He dragged it through the jungle, but realized he didn't know where he was. "Damn, I'm lost. I do recognize this tree, but... it was "go left from the tree wrapped in vines," right?"
He then noticed a certain redhead leaning against another tree close by. "Oh! It's you, Nami!" He smiled with relief. "Perfect timing! I just lost my way, you see, so I wasn't sure what to do." He dragged it closer. "What're you doing here, anyway?" He stopped in confusion when she was strangely still and quiet; and smiling for no reason. "Hey, what's the deal?" He didn't notice two pairs of eyes watching him.
-
"Dinosaur!" Nami screamed.
"Dinosaur! Dinosaur! Dinosaur!" Usopp rambled fearfully.
While running, Venus suddenly tripped over a root, and tumbled on the ground. "Venus!" Nami raged. "Fine time to fall! You're on your own!"
"No!" Usopp protested, and returned for her.
To Nami's chagrin, after he hoisted Venus on his shoulder, zipped away at lightning speed far ahead. "Hey, you! You're too fast!" She stopped to catch her breath, oblivious to being watched. "Urgh, that guy. She's just a liability with that clumsiness." She then perked up at a certain captain. "Luffy! What a relief!" He was standing in front of a tree, hand up as if he was waving. "What are you doing here?" She walked closer, and immediately noticed something was off; he wasn't moving a muscle, and he had a strange texture to him. Before she could react, she was soaked in a strange, white substance.
At the scream of terror, Usopp stopped dead in his tracks. He looked back, and realized it was just the two of them. "N-Nami?"
"Where could she have gone?" Venus wondered aloud, as they scaled the area. She then gasped in realization. "You don't think-?" She stopped, and held onto his neck and shoulders when his legs started shaking.
"Nami! Nami! Nami! Nami!" He glanced every which way, tears of terror falling. "This is not good. Luffy!" He started a mad sprint once more, making Venus yelp in surprise. "Luffy! Luffy! Luffy! Luffy!" He jumped into a clearing. "Luffyyyy!" In his haste, he bounced off a rock, and crashed into a wall, before falling on his back. "Oww." Venus also suffered some brunt; on her backside from the rock, and her head lastly when falling from his grip.
"Oof," She groaned from next to the rock, then perked up at seeing two familiar faces close by. "Hey! Luffy, Vivi!"
Usopp then jumped to his feet, and ran up to them, dragging her behind. "Terrible news! A dinosaur ate Nami!"
"Seriously?!" Luffy exclaimed in horror.
"We were running through the jungle to get away from it, and then suddenly she was gone! Oh! What do I do now?! I let my friend get killed!"
"It was my fault!" Venus cried. "If I hadn't tripped-"
"No, I was going too fast!"
"H-hold on!" Vivi tried to cut in. "Calm down, you three!" They all turned to her, now calm. "If she suddenly disappeared, does that mean you don't know for sure?"
"Are you crazy?!" Usopp exclaimed. "I was too terrified to check, and make sure!"
"Everything was a blur," Venus added.
"If it wasn't a dinosaur, it was a wild beast! What else could it have been?!"
"I don't know," She admitted, "But if people from Baroque Works have followed us onto this island, then it'd make sense why only Nami-san was targeted, and not you two."
"Eh?! Baroque Works is on the island?!" Usopp cried, but then blinked in confusion. "But... why wouldn't they go after me, or Venus-chan?"
"Because you guys are most likely not on Baroque Works' assassination list."
"Oh, I see!"
"Plus, that alcohol might've been meant for us too!" Luffy had an epiphany.
"Alcohol?!" Usopp asked. "What about alcohol?!"
"Broggy brought your alcohol to Dorry," Vivi replied, "And when Dorry drank it, it exploded in his stomach."
"What?! Alcohol exploded inside his stomach?!"
"That's awful!" Venus exclaimed.
Usopp looked behind his back. "You're saying he went to the battlefield all busted up like that?!"
"I tried to stop him, but I wound up like this instead!" Luffy added.
"You can't be serious! Those two've fought evenly for 100 years with all their might! It's probably the most pride-filled battle in the entire world!"
"Yeah," Luffy agreed.
"They can't settle the fight like this now!"
-
Close by, the duel was still going on. "What's wrong?!" Broggy asked obliviously.
Mr. 3 and Ms. Golden Week were listening in, while on a picnic. "He's still fighting," She remarked through eating a rice cracker.
"Yes. Dorry the Blue Ogre is quite stubborn, indeed." He chuckled. "Perhaps I should assist one of them." The tip of his top knot went ablaze.
Out of nowhere, a wave of wax washed up, and Dorry slipped. 'One century... it was a long battle!' Broggy took advantage of the opening, and swung his axe.
The horrified crew saw the blood flying from by the victim's house. A weakened Dorry fell to his knees, dropped his sword, and collapsed before Broggy. Luffy seethed, as Dorry's last words rang through his mind. 'This is the judgement given by Elbaf, the God of War. I didn't have his divine protection. That's all.' To everyone's shock, he started bashing his face in the ground, repeatedly. "Luffy!" Usopp's eyes widened.
"Luffy-san?!" Vivi exclaimed.
"Stop!" Venus cried.
"Who was it?!" He screamed. "Show yourself!"
-
In the jungle, Ms. Golden Week looked behind her back at a sudden holler. "Mr. 3, I think I heard something.
He laughed mockingly. "How funny! An underdog loser, yelping out here in the jungle!"
-
Broggy panted, as he held his bloody weapon. "Seventy-three thousand... four hundred sixty-seven fights... 73,466 draws." He looked up with a wide smile. "And one win!" He dropped his axe on the ground, then set his shield in front of an unmoving Dorry. He turned around upon hearing strange laughter. "Joyful tears of victory, huh?" Mr. 3 remarked. "Simpleminded people have it so easy." He sipped his tea. "Though, perhaps I'll congratulate you for now."
"Joyful tears?!" Broggy glared. "What would you know?! Just who are you?!"
"Mr. 3. Please excuse the codename. I'm a mere formative artist. And this is my realist painter assistant, Ms. Golden Week." He gestured to the girl still eating. "What's more, I've already captured you."
Broggy looked down, and saw that his feet were tightly encased in wax. "W-what is this?!" He tried to pull himself free, but the wax was too strong.
-
Meanwhile, Luffy was still struggling himself. "Alright, Luffy!" Usopp glared. "I dunno who we're dealing with, but I'll go take care of them myself!" In contrast to his determination, his knees were shaking again.
"Count me in!" Venus decided.
"No!" He protested. "I can't let you!"
Venus frowned up at him. "I'm not helpless, you know. Just because I'm a girl-"
"No, i-it's not that!" He assured. "I'm scared you'll get killed!"
"I'll be fine."
"I can't chance it! Please stay with Luffy!"
She looked up at him, and sighed, before sitting next to the captain. "Okay. Just be careful."
"Then I'm coming too!" Vivi added.
"Yes!" Usopp agreed. "Please come with me! That'd be reassuring!"
"There's no need for that!" Mr. 5!
They all turned around to see him and Ms. Valentine approaching them, the former keeping a battered Karoo hostage. "You guys!" Luffy glared.
Vivi gasped in horror when he was thrown thoughtlessly to the ground, and ran to his aid. "You can have him back. We don't need him."
"Karoo!"
"Why, you...!" Usopp glared, before turning to Luffy. "Hey, who are they?"
"The guys from that last town!"
"What are you doing here?!" Vivi demanded. "Karoo has nothing to do with this!"
"That's right," Mr. 5 agreed, "This bird has absolutely nothing to do with this. The only one we considered dangerous was that Straw Hat man. We were planning to lure you both out by having this bird squawk, but he was too obstinate."
Venus ran to join Vivi by Karoo's side. That explained his injured state; she deduced that they tried to beat a call for help out of him, to draw them in, but he refused through it all. "You're so strong."
"But then we saw Straw Hat already took himself out of the picture. So we have no use for that thing anymore."
"Karoo," Vivi cried, and he quacked weakly.
Ms. Valentine laughed mockingly. "What a stupid bird!"
"Why, you...!" Vivi seethed.
"Don't you insult him! Witchy-Witchy... Ball!" Venus launched an energy ball at her, but she dodged effortlessly.
"Are you the ones who put a bomb in the alcohol?!" Usopp demanded.
"Yes, that was us," Mr. 5 replied, "Who're you? Are those two on the list?"
"No. They must be their friends. But let's make them disappear too!"
"So you interfered with the giants' duel!" Usopp glared.
"It was them?!" Luffy raged through more struggling. "I'll kick their asses!"
Vivi, alongside Venus, jumped to her feet. "You're the ones who are going to disappear!" She whipped out her weapons.
"Oh?" Mr. 5 smirked. "You're going to try struggling, Ms. Wednesday?"
Ms. Valentine laughed. "Do you stand a chance against us Officer Agents?"
Vivi came charging in. "Peacock Slasher!"
"Take this!" Usopp joined in with his slingshot. "Special Attack: Exploding Star!" To his delight, his attack hit its mark. "Yes!"
But Ms. Valentine floated upward, out of the smoke. "What a nice, explosive blast!"
"Nose Fancy Cannon!" Mr. 5 shot a mucus explosive at Usopp, hitting him directly.
Ms. Valentine laughed from high above. "What a pity!"
"Usopp!" Venus' eye widened in terror.
"10,000 Kilogram Press!" Before she could do anything to stop her, Ms. Valentine had the sniper pinned to the ground.
Vivi charged at Mr. 5 with her slashers, but he stepped aside, and tripped her up with an explosive. "Calm down, now!" He caught her by the neck, blocking her airways.
"You big jerk!" A furious Venus began charging in to fight him bare-handed.
"Nose Fancy Cannon!" He shot another explosive, this time at her; she was sent hurtling back, crashing into the boulder, and landing by a horrified Luffy, limp on her side.
"Venus!"
"Venus-chan!" Usopp cried from under Ms. Valentine.
"I don't like being interrupted, shortie." He turned back to Vivi, who watched in horror. "Now Ms. Wednesday, there's no need to be so upset. We're not going to kill you just yet." She struggled to pry his hand off. "We only came to abduct you. On Mr. 3's orders."
"Mr. 3?! The Wax-Wax Fruit man?! He's on this island?!"
"That's right. He's a candle man who controls the wax he secretes from his body."
Luffy's eyes widened. "A candle man?!"

In your opinion or your cards who do you think would not get married in svt🤔
I always thought Joshua would be the one wouldn’t get married but reading your post I could be wrong ..
I don't actually know Seventeen at all, I had to watch a few videos of Joshua before reading for him because I just didn't know who he was. so what I'm gonna do is ask the cards and give you the description so you identify it because I don't know any of the members at all.
cards: the world, the empress, 2 of swords, page of cups and "a characteristic that differentiates this member from other members" is the king of swords reversed
straight off this is definitely a leader; this person might be a libra or a taurus or those signs are somehow important in his fame; this is probably the guy that everyone expects to get married first because he has many options, this person is charming and well known, he definitely could get married if he wanted to but I think he just feels good by himself, he isn't in a rush to find a partner. might be one of the youngest members or a "fake maknae", he has very youthful vibes, self assured and powerful. idk if there's any way you could know that, but he might be one of the richest - if they write their own songs, do solo projects, produce or just promotional content without all the members, he might be one that gets lots of royalties, probably one of the most popular, might be the face of the group, the visual or the one that people who aren't fans always think of when they hear the name 'seventeen' (in my case that would be Vernon, he's the only one I know). I know there are some foreign members in Seventeen and the 2 of swords might indicate that as well, since it talks about being stuck in between, having to weight and balance things logically - also, again, leader quality - might be someone fluent in 2 or more languages, because the swords cards often talk about communication. he might be a little impulsive tho in a way that hurts other people, so this might be someone with a scandal? idk if they have ever had one; might be someone who is a little rude without care, the type that people would find it funny because they think he's innocent and light hearted. might be someone who is flirted with oftenly, probably by fans during events, like if you looked up his name, you'd see suggestions like "x member boyfriend material", "x member with kids" things like that. if anything, I'd say this guy would love to find love but he knows his environment doesn't help, because he is surrounded by people who treat him like a kid or a king, there is major distance between him and other people, he feels very lovingly towards his close ones, family and friends, but all love proposals are from people who only know and want him for his status, he wants somebody that will see and listen to him beneath all fancy thing (my sister is watching the movie Brave in the other room and I think it fits so well with the reading); I think this dude is a bit of a nihilistic type "everyone is so dumb, why are people so boring?" lowkey hates everyone but would die for his close ones. he might have given up on marriage because "everyone's so stupid" or something like that, he might have a few flings and dates and it just never goes anywhere good so he's accepted the single life. his hair is often short and i think he mostly paints in natural colors like brown, black, natural red and blonde.
repeating colors in the cards are: mostly blue, green and yellow. (in case each member has a color or something like that)
i hope this helped, I don't know their characteristics to identify precisely the message behind the cards.

"gays don't even think about wedding cakes, they just think about surviving" being here able to do this is special enough, but extras bring even more warmth and heart to the day. I didn't know what to want to celebrate. but we got a surprise wedding cake that apparently took hours to make, with ingredients previously unknown. and it was such a unique cake experience to eat it. we cut it together, hand in hand on knife, like we were told to do, and a tiny triangle was dislodged from the whole - mostly icing, which prompted a "your life will be sweet" interpretative comment.
the woman who read us our lines to repeat said she was excited to be here, and she wore black, like us. I cried right when it started like I knew I would, because holding hands and looking into your favorite person's eyes as they affirm their love and commitment to you in front of someone else just was bound to do that. It's the words you hear in movies all your life and then you're given them and you're giving them back, and it's surreal and yet I was so firmly planted in the moment, that's when it hit, so real, after all those steps and those years. the lady said you can kiss now and we hugged, and that's the kind of thing that makes us perfect.
we wore masks, so we chuckled, and she makes decisions faster than me in public, she's so easy going even though she says it's a shield to make strangers like her and treat her well, which I don't know how to do until I trip and have to catch myself with a smile and a joke and then anxiety dissipates because they've seen me now, I'm just a little clumsy human like them. I don't remember what she said exactly, but we smiled behind the masks, I could see it in her eyes and hear it, and we hugged tight under the white flowers arch. my love. it's always perfect when it's her. and it's gonna be her forever.
I could feel it when we got back, the gates of a new life opening. it feels like anything is possible. the home we want to build, just for us, lush and safe and exactly how we decide it. we danced without having it planned, which is how all best things happen. wedding songs playlists have a lot of sad songs, how is that? do people just listen to the melody and not the words? I had sweet home Alabama stuck in my head all day, and Lover was played, and random songs, and then backstreet boys for 10 minutes.
she said we walked hand in hand into HomeGoods. I didn't even notice. I find her so naturally, I wouldn't understand if a brick hit me cause we're both girls and a guy has a problem with it. I would forget some people think there's something wrong with this. it's only love, the realest love.
we found gifts, and we felt so married, to me; together, looking for something specific, partners in all things, in a public place, strolling and loving the time unfolding slowly cause we're together, and I want to know what she's stopped to look at, what she's thinking about.
my wife. my wifeeeee. My WIFE, my wiiife!! she smiles so bright I'm starting a reminder to take pictures of her. we giggle and say "my wife" to each other a lot, and then make incomprehensible noises of disbelief and joy.
we met on here, so I feel like it's a good idea to post about this, because it's thanks to here that I know her. talk to the people you admire in secret, so you can admire them to their face. I seem to be brave about this only when it seems to intensely matter, and I seem to be right about it mattering.
december 19, 2022 🖤
#Dust#🦊🦝#T#Journal#Lesbian#Lesbian marriage#gay married in space#Is a tag omg#Not mine but now I'm curious#I didn't know or hadn't thought about the meaning of feeding each other cake at your wedding. I didn't know it's supposed to represent that#we'll be taking care of each other. It gave me a flashback to that orange masterpost on here#giving food and making food as an act of love.#So when we did that yesterday#it was even sweeter than I thought it would be#And left me with an affection for the tradition#Which is something I hardly ever have for traditions

HEYY *put shades on* I'm here to hear some business
I'm interested in hearing you talk about what caught your eye in The Tomato Can and I wanna know if you have an oc for it *Slides over a pink briefcase*
- 🍰nom
Hiiii~! *stares at the sun angrily because in no possession of sunglasses* I have business. *gives heavy pink envelope into the briefcase, gives a lil heart-sticker on the briefcase, slides briefcase back*
Also I didn't proofread.
I think I should start with the OC's I thought of because my analysis might take a while for you to read and I don't want you getting bored of my writing. So, I think I'd have two OC who could be friends of Milana. Let's think of a scottish buff woman, idk what to call her, but I thought of her looking like Merida from brave, but just--more muscles? And a Chinese one -please don't think I'm racist- who at first thinks that Milana is another easy opponent who doesn't take shit seriously when fighting against her, only to get her ass whooped in the process. I don't know, but I want to call her Mei or Feng, Idk, I imagine her having bangs which go a little over her eyes? But with like, a super serious expression, and Mei/feng is all about honor and has been fighting as some sort of family tradition, and when she looses against Milana does she try to copy her? But like, Mei looks at Milana like a student would look at his master, in such a way.
Like.--imagine:
Milana: *Does laundry a certain way*
Mei/Feng: *trying to fold them in the exact same way*
Merida?? Pls help me give her a name: *joins as well because she wants to feel included too*
and just---wholesome shit, you know?
And then I just thought...why not a little more drama??
So I thought with a few new fighters just being mean girls and ruining Milana's day?? Oh! What if Milana had a female coach, who also doesn't look like a fighter because she retired! Let's call her Ms. Carmichael, and she is just the sweetest person, and then I thought about Milana, Feng/Mei, Merida???, Elijah and Kublai trying to bring Ms. Carmichael and Coach Trevor together and I think that would be cute too.... But let me hear your thoughts as well!
Anyways-
hello and welcome to ...
short-black-diamond's webtoon "The tomato can" analysis!
Here, I am going to point out some details I've found about when reading the episodes of the tomato can!
Also this will contain spoilers? Because I'm going to summarise some episodes, so read at your own risk!
In the very first episode, Elijah is introduced as a golden boy. His opponent is "Guy 'The Machine' Nevazno", (Nevazno means doesn't matter) but what caught my eye was what stood on his boxers. Baby wipes. On his grey boxers stood legit baby wipes.
Like c'mon bro. I laughed so hard at this!!
But then, and I repeat, then there's this hot teacher, like I really wanna know her name. Like, bro, you don't understand-
I wish I could put her pic here, but then it'd be very weird, so you can just reread episode 1 again. Still, I'd do my very best to be a good student, because dayum she's hot. I don't get how he can sleep in her classes. (I secretly hope she will turn up later in the webtoon, if not I'm gonna cry.)
Then, later in the episode, Elijah is fighting against someone and barely wins, and there is another fight announced with Kevin "Bam Bam" Boseman. Please keep that name in mind, because I will go deeper on that name later on.
Anyways, in episode two, we can see Elijah barely winning the fight, and then he has some sort of afterparty all alone because his coaches didn't want to be seen with him (at least that one brother-Idk which one), and so, Elijah was just in a club or something and chilling with a drink. Then, Zach comes with his underlings? and just brings Elijah down.
Elijah warns him to leave, but Zach doesn't listen, and eggs the russian on even more, to which Elijah punches him and says something along the lines of "that was two years ago, bitch", which means that Elijah had all his fights with Zach (six fights) in the past.
(-I like to think that Elijah will beat Zach up in that tournament he took part in, let's hop for that to happen!-)
And, well, as the bodyguards interfere, tearing the boys apart, Zach was about to call him something, but Elijah just growls??? Wait, lemme just-
Yeah, that's what I mean. I think Elijah wanted to break free from that guy's grip, but it would also be funny if Elijah just growled at Zach.
Looking into the next few panels, we can see J.J. (Joseph Jericho) and his assistant/secretary Hank (what's his last name?) conversing and Elijah wants to take J.J. out for a drink. And then---I also love this panel-
Like, look at poor Hanks face. He angy bro. Look at him pout. Look at ugly jericho. This is why you don't have a wife, J.J. (He called Hanks wife shitty) IN THIS HOUSE WE RESPECT HANK'S WIFE.
And later on, when they're in some sort of restaurant, where Elijah wanted to ask Jericho about turning him into a golden boy, but before he could do that, Jericho slapped him with the cold truth. (I'm not going to write down what he said.)
But, then there was that TV show Jericho mentioned, "So you want to be a mixed martial artist?" (=name of tv show), where Elijah had a week to decide whether he'd like to join or not.
Now on to episode three, where some fighters are introduced. First, we have Joe Rumsfeld, whose nickname is GSM (Genetically superior male), and he wears something like gear?? Idk what he's wearing but it's not clothes according to Mr. Gills, the producer and director. BUt please keep in mind that he had such a headgear where it stands fight club- wait lemme just..Yeah, on the right is Joe, on the left V-cube. (idk who the person in the back is but nice jawline I guess?)
AND THEN WE HAVE PRECIOUS BEEFY VASILY VADYMOVYCH VOVCHANCHYN WHO HAS HIS CUTE LITTLE CUTIE-PATOOTIE SMILE LIKE I JUST CAN'T, 🍰-NOM, HE'S SO SWEET!!! Anyways, his friends not being able to pronounce his name is such a mood.
Again, keep in mind what Alpha male (the person next to v-cube) is wearing.
Then we have Bokassa with his cool spiritual horn, and I love how he just--believes in it! (The horn is never wrong) We also have Oscar Castro Fontana, a brazilian, who wants to represent his country and bring the big money to his family. Ah, what a man. But I don't really get the size disadvantage because in the later episodes, he looked like he'd be the same height as Vasily.
Now on to my third favourite, Kublai Khan, my wonderful psycho killer, who scared the living shit outta Mr. Gills/dad and the rest of the staff when he answered their question.
AND THEN--THEN THERE'S..omg, jason Hardwood...also known as "Lil sturdy", but like bro...I can't, like everytime I read his name or think about him, I have to think that "Lil sturdy" ... just stands for ....little dick---I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME BUT I WANT TO MAKE MILANA BULLY JASON SO MUCH ABOUT HIS NAME LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW-
And now to Zach...Zach Heartly...if evil why pretty face? Like, hear me out. Why does he have that long hair?? like for what? I mean, I don't really like him, but he looks handsome-you get what I mean?? And then, later on, his hair just whooshes when he finds out that ELijah is joining too.
And then he sweats? Like what are you so nervous for, Hartly?? Scared Elijah might beat your ass this time?
Anyways, Jason hardwood/lil sturdy (omg I still can't stop laughing abt it) tries to rile up Kublai because he beat his elder brother, Johnny, however, Kublai makes him mad by addressing him by his brother's name, to which Izo Honda (Daimyo) has to hold him back. And now to Izo. He's a gossip lover. Like, look.
But in the next panel he's just-
Like bro😭😭
And in the beginning of the fourth episode, we can see the brothers (Elijah's coaches) argumenting with each other that Elijah is not good enough to become a golden boy. *sad diamond noises*
Also, later on -sorry that I am going fast forward tthe hole time, but- we see Vasily trying to make Elijah his friend and I think that's really sweet of him. Also Vasily promising Elijah that he'll teach him russian for the time being is just so wholesome, but Elijah is a lil suspiscious of him and doesn't trust him at first.
Also if we look at the guys interacting with each other, Medusa asks GSM abt his clothes which are not there, but-
Kelvin Coin...bro I love this webtoon so much
Also can we look at Elijah? He's taller than Coah Trevor and Kublai and just
Just look at them. I mean, yeah the size difference is not really there but still. Also why is Kublai's chin so pointy?? Trevor looks like he aged like fine wine (not that I'm calling him old) and Elijah is just so good-looking...it makes my heart go doki-doki (ok I'll stop☠)
In episode 5, Vasily invites Elijah to take some of his nerves away, but Elijah isn't really happy there. Also not Medusa giving Joe stank eyes for drinking from a bottle...look-
What does Rhabdo stand for? I just looked it up and it stands for Rhabdomyolysis, which is a condition in which damaged skeletal muscle breaks down rapidly. (-> which I looked up on wikipedia) So like, maybe that, or it means sth completely else.
Also, another reason why Elijah is my fave, is because he doesn't drink alcohol. Then, we have Mario Di Vito (MDV), who gives Elijah his left hand to shake because he doesn't have a right hand. ELijah doesn't even address that, but the tattoo. MDV feels delighted (in my opinion) that he doesn't get asked by a stranger abt his missing hand, but gets warned by Elijah playfully who says that he won't go easy on Mario.
I'm happy that Elijah is like that. *happy diamond noises*
And then, it comes to the conversation of Joe talking abt memories, and that takes us back to the first episode, where I talked about Kevin "Bam Bam" Boseman, if you can remember.
I think Kevin, Joe and Medusa were pals once, and maybe Kevin Boseman made it big as a fighter? I'm excited for what will happen in the future!
And then Joe talked abt college days and how they were drunk and a skunk, and then we have poor Mr. Gills/dad who looses it. Also the camera man is looking at them with a concerned face.
And Elijah just laughes his ass off by dark humor, according to Vasily.
And then, in episode six, we have Trevor recommending ELijah and Kublai to fight one round to close off for the night, and The bearded coach sent Izo/drama lover over to see if they could finally use the cage, but then-
izo runs towards his coach, and then-
look at him being all excited. I mean I'd be like that too, but no one is as excited as him in the webtoon.
In episode seven, Elijah finally lands a kick with "double cheese and mayo", as coach trevor explains which is "the code for a straight a straight left and calf kick".
And well, at the end of the seventh episode, Kublai recalls his memories on how Coach trevor stopped his right leg, but then he remembered that Coach Trevor actually blocked his left leg, and it was Elijah who gave him that nasty bruise on the right side of his knee-leg part.
In episode eight, we can see Elijah being one pound over the weight limit because of the energy drinks, according to Kublai, to which Elijah gets an earful. Maybe I'll write Milana making Vasily and Elijah getting a diet?
Then we have our Alpha male who has to wear that to sponsor the TV show. Can't wear his rhabdo thingy anymore i guess lol
As the fighers Elijah and Ethan are being checked by the security, Gills interviews the other fighters again. That blue haired guy, Donovan "the freak" Day says Elijah is the weakest link and that Ethan't going to win the fight easily. Alpha male exclaims that it's going to be a boring fight and that they should watch his instead. Stfu man no one likes u.
Then we have sweet Vasily who looks concerned on Elijah's behalf because of the wounds Kublai gave him, and our cool Bokassa, who says that Elijah will win, which makes mr. Gills perk up.
Also Elijah being 23? and Ethan 25? Damn, I dunno what I should expect- I actually wrote Milana being 20 in my fics, is that okay for you, 🍰-nom?
Now we know Hank's last name too, who is moderating the fight. Hank Morel, who is also vice president of the Pankration F.C. (idk what F.C. stands for)
I also love how Ethan tried to to the fake glove touch trick with Elijah as well, but homeboy got warned and info-dumped by Vasily and Alpha male. And well, Ethan got punched and nearly lost his balance and stood on wobbly legs.

Rules: shuffle your on repeat playlist and post the first 10 songs it gives you
....okay, you asked for it. The variety is gonna be slim because my repeat playlist right now only has four bands on it.
Sleep Token - Fall for me
Sleep Token - Rain
GAEREA - Mantle
Ghost - Here Comes The Sun
Ghost - Life Eternal
Ghost - Crucified
Sleep Token - Hypnosis
GAEREA - Deluge
Ghost - Ghuleh/Zombie Queen
Sleep Token - Take Me Back To Eden
Hey we got three of the four lol I'm sorry for the lack of actual music, because, if I'm being honest this playlist was made specifically for songs I will listen to all the way through without skipping, so uh here's a double list! Second from my masterlist which has gotten no love recently.
Hatari - Hatrid Mun Sigra
Sleep Token - Distraction
Sleep Token - Take Aim (shut up they are my everything rn)
Andrew Jackson Jihad - Brave as a Noun
REM - Losing My Religion
Milkblood - No Mind
Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
Sleep Token - The Night Does Not Belong To God
MOSTRO - Sabato Sera
SIAMES - The Wolf
You know the rules, if you want to go on ahead and consider yourself tagged! (We don't have to be mutuals, I don't mind)

i'm busy with Game of Dice stuff *looks directly at the thumbnail i need to draw and matches i recorded that i gotta look through to see if they're worth editing. then looks at the stuff i wanna write for Game of Dice*
i'm also like, waiting for the new Marianas Trench album, Haven, to release on the 30th this month cause i just know there's the chance i might change more chapter titles to the new songs lol. i'm pretty sure the act names are set in stone. last act and its chapters i don't see changing at all from what i already have.
like, the entire tracklist has been revealed but it also matters that the song itself and its lyrics fit to what i wanna name a chapter after (i spent a good hour or so looking through music i listen to for the original timeline act/chapter names before some got renamed).
...on a side note, guess who just changed another chapter name cause one of the songs randomly released and i just saw it appear on my Spotify randomly
that's 4 songs from Haven used for ews chapter names, help
also i just had the easiest time getting Brave Alfonse to +10 in feh and the tord yootooz i pre-ordered earlier in the year is gonna start shipping towards the end of this month i'm gonna hit him with a hammer /j
so august is a good month this year lol :)
anyway on a story note: A1C1 is almost done (not including time i'd set aside in wanting to get it beta read cause i frequently find mistakes after i post lol). but the main thing holding me back is still thinking about entry artifacts. i have the idea of what i want the artifacts to mean but thinking of what they will be and how they solve their puzzle holds me back lol.
anyway again, have these in the meantime
some excerpts from A1C1. it's just about the handles i made for the 4.
random bit from a future act & chapter cause their dynamic is just this to me. the sylph/RT is 🤏 always this close to strangling her fellow derse dreamers [you look closer and see my fingers are touching.]
rough sketches of prospit/derse stuff, using slightly redesigned versions of fancy dreamself outfits i've designed years ago. no i'm not sure if they actually wear these in the story itself or simple dreamself outfits instead, but i like these designs and wanna use them somewhere. idk when this one will finish. ...and also i have a game of dice piece i need to finish. all their designs is based on their class outfits in someway. Tom only kinda where it's mostly the cape and i kinda used something else as inspo. "what's the other inspo?" Captain Dr. X i guess you can consider this piece a successor to a very old prospit/derse piece i made in 2014. ...also i finally got the idea to make this after listening to moonlight daydream on repeat. altho it's a song that would fit the duo instead. no there is not a chapter named after this song, but i was real close on doing so lol.
and rough sketches of the fancy dreamself outfits of the duo cause why not. like the others, SA's outfit is based on her class outfit (Mage, fanon design). RT is the only one not based on her class and is being based on Filipino and Laotian fashion. with some added details. "why is she different?" cause the reason i had years ago when i designed my og idea for fancy dreamself outfits: i wanted Filipino and Laotian inspiration somewhere because i'm Filipino Laotian. this is one of the few times y'all can see her face. we also won't see their dreamselves in ews anyway cause they've already ascended/god tiered.
#ews creator#art by joker#the only reason i share any text excerpts is when it just obviously does not give anything anyway#aka it's vague as hell

I just finished reading your meta on the NineRiver audios and honestly at first I was feeling a bit hesitant because of how I got exposed to the naysayers' takes first. But glad I finally felt brave enough to peek under the cut.
I love how you point out that the Doctor is always unsettled with the concept of having a wife in any regeneration because it's not that they hate River (which I've seen was the conclusion of some after listening to the audios 🫥), it's that they didn't think they'd ever be in a relationship, much more married of all things.
Also wanna ask if it's possible to have a clarification on the statement "River does not hide her infatuation". Unless it was used with a different meaning to what it usually has. Because by this point, she's past that infatuation stage? (Do we count Mels as the infatuation stage? I think early baby River could maybe count as infatuation stage too?)
Okay and the part where you point out that River barely notices the Doctor's new bodies is such a cool one because I JUST REALIZED IT. You know that thing where you ingest something but it takes you some time before said thing gets processed (usually by someone else pointing it out)? Yes, that's me.
Totally still laughing over Nine being "totally doing that kind of stuff with you, River, sans the guns" and around two regenerations later, he's totally doing that kind of stuff with River with the guns. He learned rather quickly that he has the tendency to give River what she wants lol (also headcanoning that Eleven had fashioned a hidden gun panel in the TARDIS console "just in case you need it River" but of course since we love angst he never was able to show it to her because she'd swanned off to the Library and he kept seeing her data ghost in the corner of his eye) (also could it be that the reason why Eleven is more "okay" sort of with her and her guns is because he understands her trauma and how having her gun around is sort of like her security blanket?)
Oh and Archipelago, my beloved. My heart hurt with Swipe Right, laughed a bit with Face of the Apocalypse, but damn, Archipelago. Damn. It made me bawl for a bit longer afterwards. I just love when Big Finish writers get DoctorRiver.
I'm gonna be dragging my heels a bit here though because although I originally went along with the QPR feels after my first listen (yes I listened to it again *\0/*), then a moot on Twitter pointed out that Nine and River had definitely fucked in the middle of the time storm. And I was like "WAIT WHAT WHEN WHERE" because how? I mean they were covered in corals by that time yeah? And moot said it happened near the end when they were acting "like a couple again" (must be after Nine read River's diary and got to know her, understand her). River described their time together while writing in her diary and mentioned "and then finally we lay together again". I had thought it meant literally lying down together but River being River, it could have meant they had, well, fucked. I don't understand the how of it though XD but they're River and the Doctor so kudos to them I guess?
erm this was quite long sorry for that >.<
ever questioning, Tia 💌
Thanks Tia! I liked your Star-Crossed initial review too :) “I also love how this smashes any belief that River forces the Doctor to have sex with her or do anything that the Doctor is uncomfortable with.” because YES. Yes, yes, yes. Anyway. A cut before I respond to each of these things.
1) Right?? Swipe Right could not have been more direct in repeating that the Doctor was bothered by the idea of marriage/relationships, not by River herself. The way writers give us aroace Nine, and some people can only see their ship war? Ah well.
2) Oh my god I totally misused infatuation — editing that! How do words work haha. I was thinking along the lines of… “Someone you can walk into your life and make you see everything completely differently.” “Harvey said that to me. Oh, believe me, Captain. The Doctor has already done that to me, multiple times.” Falling in love with the same person again and again… like older couples who consistently put in the work to go on regular dates, lighting these new sparks with new experiences even after being together for decades… couples like the Doctor and River. (Oh, my sweet Mels. There is a thin line between infatuation and brainwashing </3 Personally, I would say student River was her infatuation phase — researching him for positive reasons instead of murderous ones.)
3) River barely noticing the different bodies is so. <3 This corporeal form that is so tied to a human's sense of identity — yet to River or the Master, it’s no different than a particularly-physically-taxing change of clothes. Who hasn’t regenerated a few times? River gets to judge him for insisting on the face of a twelve-year-old. River gets to shoot off his hats. (Eleven radiating his “How do you do fellow kids?” energy.)
4) Oh yes, Nine and Ten were so self-righteous about guns. (River was so cute with Ten, too!) Ah, if Eleven had treated UNIT the way Ten had. Rory with his auton wrist-gun. Bad girl Churchill with his revolver. Miscellaneous Americans. I like to think the heart-to-heart over Wilf’s gun coinciding perfectly with regeneration helped him get past it; Eleven’s no-gun rule seems a lot more “good men don’t need rules, today is not the day to find out why I have so many” vibes. He doesn’t trust himself to use guns, but he does trust River — he believes in her far more than she believes in herself. (That said, YES— I really love the idea of the Doctor being very supportive of young student River having her guns, so that she feels safe. Even if she has PTSD flashbacks/brainwashing relapses and tries to kill him, he couldn’t care less; his only priority is making sure she feels safe and comfy, when she can. I wrote a fic with that as a theme lmao.) (Why you gotta BREAK MY HEART (girl I’m glad you do). Eleven standing alone against the colorless, minimalist console, hands pressed over the secret gun compartment he prepared — to show her how much she means to him — paralyzed by grief, torn between the need to be near to her and the need to protect himself from further heartsbreak, listening to River move around the room. Do you think River had her favorite alpha-meson blaster in the Library? He'll never be able to retrieve it. Nardole's not going to know to grab a gun.)
5) Oh, Archipelago. The way it completely gets these two, from the glorious to the dysfunctional, to the root reasons they just work. Secrets call for trust; but trust without the need of secrets becomes something so beautiful. Also, there's something I appreciate about the handling of an aspect that seems to get confused (by those who speculate “it's not love, the timeline forced it” as per that infamous-ish Harbo Wholmes video (okay, it's infamous-ish to doctorriver fans. Harbo has some misses haha); like we need further proof having a wedding isn't the only way to whisper in your lover’s ear). Nine's “Don't you wanna see what that's like to be with me, not cause it's preordained or prophesyed, just two people bobbing about taking it slow?” leading to their sharing secrets no other Doctor and River had shared before. The exploration wherein — far from their relationship being forced by the timeline — the temporal constraints of the fixed points of their deaths actually mean they have to work even harder for the relationship to be what it is, yet they create together something cosmically beautiful out of tragedy (“you know how much I use [the VM] to bind our lives together.”).
6) Huh, yeah, “And finally, we lay together again, in the height of the dark” sounded to me about lying down too! I did get the impression that lying down was the default since the coral infection (at least for River). River does love her innuendos in their verbal dance of wit (aka flirting), but it’s her diary, not the Bible… I think she would be more explicit than that, even if she is aiming for brevity! It wouldn't fit the vibe (in my opinion). As you say, they're barely able to move. And not that aroace people never fuck, but (personally) the idea of that here does leave the unsavory impression that River would've gone with it at the last hour while knowing it's not his thing, with the “whether you know that or not — whether you feel that or not” line coming afterwards despite the fact that he certainly “knows” their future at this point, from front to back to front to back again. (Also “acting like a couple again” is so subjective since QPPs do a lot of things that are typically associated with couples? like the physical intimacy between River and Nine?) Not being aroace myself I will try to speak more generally to avoid speaking over people on a topic I'm not qualified to speak on — but I think, at least, it would be very disappointing if it meant that — I know that it means a lot to me (and I become very protective) when I see positively-represented aspects of my own identity that are rarely portrayed in a non-stereotyped light — and it would indicate at best a major lack of miscommunication between writers after Swipe Right, or worse: if the implication was to uncritically imply his orientation could be altered by the right partner…? Anyway: I still see it as queerplatonic personally, but thanks for pointing out that observation because I wouldn't have thought of that line! (Also, I can't speak for your twitter mutual, who I don't know, etc.)
Anyway, thank you for the ask! 💌
Love the SMALL CAPS and YOU ARE LEGENDARY for them.
#anyway. god knows I have a lot of headcanons about doctor who. it is late. I am going to go to sleep now.#doctor who canon is just so vast and importantly: contradictory#so there are many valid readings of lotsa things!#to me: I think it makes sense that these things change regeneration to regeneration#like— every cell in their body changes— and given the different personalities- we know that includes the brain—#[insert nonsequiturs abt 10's thing for blondes and 11's for bad girls aka war criminals] [not that's a 1-on-1 comparison even slightly]#[and I know my readings are not the only valid ones] [okay I'll go to bed why am I always finishing this half asleep]#[I see most doctors vaguely in the demi & bi general vague spheres anyway] [aroace nine tho]#tw acephobia#tw arophobia#maybe. tagging just in case. definitely discussion of it is here#not about your ask- *I* just sorta went on an unqualified tangent abt it#and for this reason. I am leaving it out of the character tags. until probs in weeks or sumn when its older#words by seaweed#thank you for the ask tia!! xo

@fcused said: ❝ we’re gonna be brave, and we’re gonna get out of this. ❞ / actually we're both very hurt and bleeding out and probably gonna die rn but she is trying so hard to be calm :)
there's a leak somewhere above his head, he thinks, distantly. somewhere above his head, he liked to imagine that their friends had made it out the front door of this hell. he didn't have the heart to imagine the alternative.
❝ i-it's cold. ❞ his teeth chatter around the words, brittle. his eye — the one he can still open — flicks down to where connie was all but curled up against the wall. in the shadow of this red room, that seems to want to digest them — he can only tell that she's hurt, bad. and how close were they, to becoming another fixture in the rot, decay — the rusty bathtubs full of soupy, ambiguous entrails, and shelves lined in beige-brown bones? how stupid were they, for thinking they would find maria, that everything would be okay?
the meathook is sunk messy, curved through his back, and lodged up somewhere in muscle and broken ribs, his own weight an unbearable pressure. it got a little worse, with every stilted breath. hell, he'd made it worse, a couple times, trying to pull himself up using the ceiling beams, until exhaustion dropped him back down and stunned him anew. by now, the pain had subsided into some incoherent, pulsing amalgamation — he wouldn't even know where to start, if someone asked him where it hurt. just knew it was his own blood, that soaked the front of his shirt black, that peeled down his temple and into his vision. that he dragged it in, out, with every struggling breath through his crunched nose. how much had you cried, already? how much saltwater, dirt, blood had you swallowed trying to keep the sobs down?
❝ i-i don’t mean to let you down, connie, ❞ he says, softly, in a voice almost too ragged to make out, ❝ but i … i think i'm all messed up. ❞ blood keeps coming up his throat in dry sputters — he guessed that dust that woman had got him with must be burning up his insides something bad. maybe if he hadn't been so trusting. if he had been smarter, or maybe braver, maybe he could have gotten them out of here.
then, he can't breathe at all — it's the sound of a loud, metal door shaking on its hinges that makes him flinch. monstrous figure looms in the pale light of the stairwell, and maybe he and connie both try to pretend themselves into the shadows, into being still, lifeless furniture. but heavy, relentless steps trudge across the room, through puddles of viscera and filthy water, accompanied by the low rumble of a power tool. the shadow that falls over him eclipses even the cruel red light.
— and leland's breathing picks up again, like any other snared animal that knew the end was close. one rough hand grabs him by the jaw, turns him this way and that, inspecting nothing more than meat. staring back, shattered, into what he now understood to be eye holes, in the horrifying skin-mask — all he can think, is that he doesn't know that he's going to be able to die quietly. and that he can't bring himself to look at connie, although he wants so desperately to be brave for her. his voice shakes, betrays his cold realization, ❝... please, connie. you're not gonna wanna see it. ❞
— the saw growls to life, chain spinning closer, closer to his rapidly heaving chest. his gaze snaps sideways to meet connie's, finally, urgently, wide and frightened; ❝ i-it's alright. con, just close your eyes, alright? ❞ his eyes burn, he can't breathe — he can't breathe and he needs to tell her and he needs to look at her one more time — and the saw roars loud as his heartbeat in his ears; ❝ — just don't look. d-don't listen. i-it's gonna be okay. ❞ it’s gonna be over, soon. he repeats it, and repeats it, until he can’t, until it dissolves into gutteral, throat-scraping screams.
#surprise i ... still have this draft haha!#cw gore#cw death#it's fine it's fine it's fine and im normal and it's f#fcused#( ☆ ) ⸻ CH. 1 / verse.#( ☆ ) ⸻ THE FILM WHICH YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE... / ic.

🎧 for the ask game please? i'd like some song recommendations because my playlist is like 80% kpop help-
but also!!! hihi savv i hope you're having a good day today ily ♡♡♡
OMG HI XANTHE!!!! 💙✨ i hope ur having a good day too!!!!
okay im gonna go ahead and give u a few bc ur the only one to send one in so far and i have So Many songs i want to write fic for sjdjdkkddk (narrowing it down to three was actually really hard lmao)
first up i'm gonna give you i will by mitski
so stay with me / hold my hand / there's no need / to be brave and all the quiet things you bear / seal them up with care / no one needs to know they're there / for i will hold them for you 'cause all i've ever wanted is here / all i ever wanted / all i want is / always you / it's always you and we're not out of the tunnel / i bet you, though, there's an end and while you sleep / i'll be scared / so by the time you wake / i'll be brave
this makes me want to write qpr reader x member emotional hurt/comfort. like, just them being vulnerable with each other and holding each other (both physically and emotionally) and reader knowing that while they worry for member, member worries just as much over them and. idk, being brave for the people you care about and having it not automatically equal romance :')
(also mitski's one of my all-time fav artists so if u like this song u should check out her entire discography, her songs make me Feel Things, in like, the experiencing the human condition kinda way)
[putting the rest under a readmore bc i apparently have a lot to say OOPS]
okay next i'm gonna give you sweet time by porter robinson [cw: death mention]
and i feel so stupid / 'cause i wasn't scared of this before / but since i met you / i don't wanna die no more so take a long time / 'cause, oh, the world is lucky to be your home, i know / i need a next life / 'cause i'm not satisfied to know you just once / so take a long time
this makes me want to write some kind of reincarnation/reality-hopping au So Bad. just like, the idea of meeting someone and wanting to know everything about them, and not just the them of now, but every them that could and would have been. idk what the plot would actually be, but [member of choice] needs to find you in all these different realities for Reasons and in getting to know all these yous, comes to love all these different parts of you. sometimes it's romantic, sometimes it's platonic, but it's always with the same dedication
but yeah. "i need a next life, 'cause i'm not satisfied to know you just once" ughhhh. love this so much
(also another favorite artist of mine, specifically his album 'nurture'. listen to that shit on repeat so often lol)
okay lastly im gonna give you it happened quiet by aurora [cw: blood mention]
feathers falling out of the pillow / as if time is standing still / i can’t remember much more / but i know it happened quiet / so quiet you fell apart / like a stone can be broken into sand / a thousand pieces / spread across a crying land / and you can’t remember that day / but you know it happened quiet / so quiet / words falling out through the window / all that remains is a silent call / is the earth colored red? / as i land like a flower on the meadow are your dreams as dead as they seem? / don’t you speak over my voice / i will return from the shadows / and i’ll bleed in your bed / turn it red / like the ground outside your window / love is wild
i would love love LOVE to write a dark fairytale/fantasy fic for this, like!!! god, the vibe of this song feels like those stories that start off soft and fairytale-esque but by the end you realize it's actually a dark kind of warning and not a happily-ever-after.
so the basic idea i have would be something along the lines of: reader was once like, a forest guardian or something, and at one point a human came along and was like "let me live in ur forest pls" and they were skeptical but eventually let them as long as they didn't hurt the forest at all. so the human builds themself a little cottage in the clearing and doesn't hurt the forest and so reader lets themself start to get to know the human and oops! they end up falling in love (bad idea) and in a moment of vulnerability, the human attacks them, nearly kills them, and curses them so they can't protect their forest anymore. bc lo and behold, little human is actually a greedy bastard from the nearby kingdom wanting to take all the resources here.
fast forward a bit, and [member of choice] who has some magical abilities, starts getting really weird dreams about the forest on the other side of the kingdom. cue member being enlisted to help reader enact their revenge plot to save their forest (and also maybe reach some righteous havoc while they're at it) and they become best 'villain' bros the end :')
(once again, love aurora so much, i highly recommend checking out her discography haha)
send me a “🎧” and i’ll give you a non-kpop song i want to someday use as fic inspiration
#i wrote so much i'm so sorry sldfjsdlkjfsldkjf#i hope you like the songs at least!!#savv answers#ask game#xanthe 🐢

hey! wild child sounds really interesting, I may have to watch it! 🤔 as for today’s question, let me ask: what are your top 5 taylor songs? give me details on why! 🎅
hi anon! thanks <3
top 5 is hard because i havent done a formal sorter since post evermore, and so much has changed. so im gonna try and throw something tg
state of grace - i dont think a song can ever top it because to me its so taylor-esque and has that country-pop-rock sound that i love from her "so you were never a saint and i loved in shades of wrong, we learn to live with the pain, mosaic broken hearts, but this love is brave and wild" changed the course of my life
august - this song alters my brain chemistry the moment i hear "salt air" at the time i first heard the song i only ever felt like i was august, not in the literal sense but felt mentally discarded by people. the hook "remember when i pulled up and said 'get in the car', ..." is mind-boggling, life-changing, one of a kind songwriting
you're on your own, kid - this was an instant favorite off of midnights. though this song is custom to taylor's experience, there are moments where i know we can all see ourselves. growing up is hard and the world sucks so it fits to a lot of people. the production slow build into a triumphant end feels so right. my mom always said to me how i need to by my own biggest fan, and how i am the only one that is always there with me, every step of the way. it is hard to live by that every day, forget every month, year, etc, but that's why yoyok means to much to me. "i hosted parties and starved my body like i'd be saved by a perfect kiss" still makes me want to tear up every time.
blank space - the hottest pop babe of the catalogue. cruel summer's chaotic older sister that needs to be bailed out of jail. black space is pop perfection, and the blank space/style/ootw trio is one of the most powerful pop tracklisting I've experienced in my listening life, and i think its the best trio of tracklisting in taylor's catalogue. i would love to sing this karaoke one day, but you need to COMMIT to the part. "and you'll come back each time you leave, 'cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream" like??? how the fuck was this allowed, this is the sexiest lyric ever. it is hot but instills the fear of life into you.
champagne problems - this song is the saddest tune i love to listen on repeat. this essence of, 'am i the girl who's 'fucked in the head'? will i ruin someone else's life because i cannot commit? am i doomed to this being my reality one day?' is why i come back to it. the piano is gorgeous, lyrics devastating, and has that direct storytelling that i love from taylor. "your midas touch on the chevy door, November flush and your flannel cure, 'this dorm was once a mad house,' i made a joke 'well, it's made for me,' how evergreen our group of friends don't think we'll ever say that word again, and soon they'll have the nerve to deck the halls that we once walked through: one for the money, two for the show, i never was ready so i watched you go; sometimes you just don't know the answer till someones on his knees and asks you.. 'she would've made such a lovely bride, what a shame she'd fucked in the head,' they said but you'll find the real thing instead.. she'll patch up your tapestry that i shred"... you get the picture...
honorable mentions in no particular order: i knew you were trouble, i know places, the lakes, cruel summer, 'tis the damn season, love story, and call it what you want
the folkevermore songs have such a tight grip on me is what i learned from this
also you asked for details so i absolutely wanted to give 'em. thank u bestie.
