The Klubs - Indian Dreams (1968)
I'm not sure how I came upon this incredibly catchy rarity by the Klubs, a British psych group from Birkenhead (across the Mersey from Liverpool). They don't seem to have caught many breaks in their career, only releasing one single. This comes from a collection of recordings released in 1999.

Last week, Sweet Anon and Dead Hater Anon broke up on @tulipsempai 's blog. A situation that we silently witnessed. For my part, it was alongside @snickeruwu; where this came out:
Which probably gave us something like this:
#small#tulipsempai#Snicker#avm#animation vs minecraft#Sweet we love you <3#Not so Dead Hater Anon we tolerate you <3#I drew between midnight and 2am#My sleep cycle is disastrous#And my sleep debt is incredible

god i love ghost quartet but it really is kind of a downer once you know what's going on sdlkfjdsklj like pearl and rose never come to this kind of "meeting" moment where they both know what's going on and can "talk it out". they don't close the cycle of violence it just loops back again in wind / rain. and (depending on ur interpretation of whether the story loops again or not) the only ~happily ever after / transcendent moment is between rose and the man/the astronomer. which idk it never sits right with me.
#brought to you by my listening of it again by the 230942th time#ghost quartet#i do like wind and rain as a closing number for a couple reasons (it's the 'rose is doing therapy' and the 'atheist curtain pull' visions)#but i think midnight should have had a more clearer like 'i forgive you' moment between the sisters#or smth#i guess the point is *you cant* break a cycle of violence that's why the thing is a circular story#and it's more about ~the awareness and ~learning to forgive oneself (As per the prayer)#but#sobs idk i just feel like rose focused all her revenge on pearl and she never gets a second chance (that we get to *See* after the train cr#sh)#but she does give the man who cheated on her w/ her sister another love story...#it feels kinda a bit sexist man idk sdkjfsd

i’ve been on that fashion dreamer grind lately if you are a fan of dress up games or gacha or shopping but you don’t believe in spending money… get this game
#living after midnight#it’s the latest installment in the style savvy series but it’s pretty different too#like there’s no budgeting and the clothing options refresh based on your progress rather than a day cycle#online mode is really fun too i love seeing other peoples designs… there are some things i’d change but overall very good

Being a parent is. exhausting
I have never been attached to a creature more than my sluppies yeah. so every time one of them goes missing or dies I restart the cycle yeah. trying to get Pilgrim like this :thumbsup:
#Midnight is insane actually he's an actual fighter. Dusk is a lil more reserved.#I have no idea if sluppies have actual personality modifiers but....like Middy saved me from a white lizard twice in the same cycle.#and held his own basically against a king vulture because I had to keep dropping him to throw spears and rocks and stuff#he loves the king vulture mask. I had to leave it behind in Chimney Shelter near Industrial gate because it was making surviving harder#Middy will hunt down tiny centis and eat them alive. I tend to have to kill them for Dusk#sorry for giving them the most basic names ever I'm horrible at names sdjdshdshds#I love these little guys a lot yeah#Android plays Rain World#Android.txt

I've just been watching videos about cut content from Persona games and Persona 4 had some cut lines stating that the Shadows become more powerful and dangerous at nighttime. And that made me think: Since you can only enter the TV world/Metaverse during the day in P4/5 and only enter at night in P3... Does that mean the P3 cast were essentially on hard mode?
This is actually really interesting!! I've been meaning to check out the cut content for a while actually
I am actually not sure? I mean on paper it makes a lot of sense, shadows being stronger at night, but I'm just wondering given that the line came from P4 does that mean shadows in the midnight channel specifically become stronger at night or does this apply to shadows in general. If it IS the case that all shadows regardless of where they're found/reside then yeah P3 cast had an even harder time than we thought 💀
#asks#anonymous#persona#basically im just wondering is the shadows stronger at night a shadow thing or a midnight channel thing#if its the former then yeah sees were having a tough ass time#if its the latter then ig its a cool aspect of the midnight channel#honestly either makes sense#cause like shadows being effected by the night cycle in the MIDNIGHT channel#and also shadows in p3 are effected by the moon cycle#theres a connection in here somewhere lmao#but i dont actually remember if anything was said about this in canon content#i would love to sit down and analyze how each shadow realm effects the shadows#like metaverse vs midnight channel vs dark hour vs whatever the earlier games had going on#<- im like 50% sure they had shadows appearing in the real world but my mind is a lil scrambled rn so apologies

I live kind of close to a hospital, and whenever I see the helicopters fly over, I think of Sky. It makes me smile.
Hope your Sunday was alright! Haven't heard from you in a bit, hopefully work and life are just keeping you busy. Just felt like letting you know you are loved. <3
Aww, yes, Sky keeps busy with all those flights! I’ve been talking to a flight medic recently and it’s making me so excited to fly someday. ❤️
I had a long work stretch and was just kind of mentally dead for anything outside of work, but I have a day off so here I am chilling. :) My Sunday was meh, but thank you for checking in on me ❤️❤️❤️❤️
#you ask skye answers#lovely bluevaractyl#I wonder if I can watch a new Ahsoka episode#When do they come out?#I should probably eat something#My sleep cycle is so effed up right now#It’s midnight and I haven’t eaten breakfast lol#save for a rainy day

Sundered Cords
The umbilical cord is severed 3 times.
Once with the rebellious scalpel from dictatorship. Then, disassociated parental persecution. And finally, inevitable cremation of the root.
Freedom from the instruction of criteria you must meet. Unraveling indoctrination, an inauguration of you. Ultimately, the amputation of any other existence other than your forever evolving, beautifully patented self.
~ Maeve

GIRLS NEED LOVE | PARK SUNGHOON
summary: you can’t seem to listen when your best friend says her older brother is off limits.
word count: 3.2k
warnings (18+): smut. fluff (if you squint lmfao). swearing. alcohol. kissing. nipple play, fingering (f. receiving).
MINORS DNI!!
A/N: back again after my usual cycle of deleting and remaking accounts here (hopefully this is my last lol). edited and remade this just in case it sounds familiar!
The summer heat was relentless tonight, a thick, suffocating blanket that clung to your skin and refused to let go. You tossed and turned beneath the light sheets, frustration building with every huff of breath.
The air was humid, making it impossible to slumber. Despite having your eyes shut for what felt like an eternity, sleep remained elusive, teasing you from just beyond reach.
You’d like to think there were other reasons besides the warmth of the summer evening that had you feeling hot and bothered. The muffled hum of cicadas outside droned on, an irritating cacophony that seeped through the walls, mingling with the soft snores of your best friend beside you.
But, it wasn’t really the noise that kept you awake—it was the swirling thoughts in your mind, each one pulling you deeper into a mixtape of memories you wished would stay buried.
Your brain, ever the tormentor, delighted in replaying moments you’d rather forget. Moments that belonged in the past, locked away and never to be revisited.
You wanted to blame the events at Jake’s party on the alcohol—specifically that cursed, yet sinfully good, cherry vodka Jay made.
It was the vodka, after all, that led you to kiss your best friend’s brother in the first place.
At least, that’s what you wanted to believe. It was the alcohol…it had to be the alcohol.
It wasn’t the fact that you had a raging crush on him for months. If anything, it was his fault. Sunghoon was the one who escaped from the party to join you. Somehow letting aimless conversation fall into enamoured glances, droning about how pretty you looked that night.
He was the one who slid his hands around your waist and pulled you closer, lips ghosting over yours and pleading to kiss you.
Passionately. Feverishly. Hungrily.
Your eyes snapped open with a frustrated sigh, the darkness of the room doing little to calm the rapid thrum of your heart as you sat up. The memory of Thursday night played vividly in your mind, leaving your chest tight and your thoughts tangled.
Since that night, you hadn’t seen much of Sunghoon, his summer job at the beach keeping him occupied while you and Sooah roamed the town, searching for anything to distract yourselves from the blistering heat.
A part of you was relieved not to see him since Thursday night. You preferred the silence over the possibility of hearing him downplay what happened, blaming it on ‘party spirit’ or the alcohol.
With a sigh, you slipped out of bed, your feet softly padding across the carpeted floor as you made your way out of the room.
Maybe a midnight snack would help ease your restless mind, you thought, as you quietly descended the stairs, the faint glow from the living room spilled onto the wooden floor signalling that you weren’t the only one awake tonight.
But, preoccupied with the sole quest to sleep, you brush it aside, entering the dimly lit kitchen and making a beeline for the fridge.
When you open the fridge you close your eyes with a sigh, the feeling of the cold breeze hitting your skin making you feel a thousand times better.
“Can’t sleep?” Sunghoon’s voice tickling the shell of your ear startles you, slightly jumping with a stifled scream. “What the hell?!” You whisper yell, “don’t sneak up on people like that!” You chide, clutching your heart in an attempt to regain your composure.
Sunghoon’s smirk grows into a smile, seemingly humoured with scaring you shitless and you roll your eyes at him. It only takes a few seconds to notice how close he is to you, swallowing thickly as your eyes scanned his appearance.
Nothing but a pair of sweatpants and white socks…great, he was shirtless.
“I don’t think I will sleep anytime soon, thanks to you.” You grumbled in response to his question, awarding yourself for not sparing another glance at his naked upper half.
“Oh come on princess, it wasn’t that bad.” You roll your eyes again before returning to the fridge, trying not to mull over the nickname he had just given you.
You could feel Sunghoon’s gaze remain fixed on you, studying you intently, until he eventually turned his attention to the fridge. You felt as though he could feel the heat radiating from your skin as he moved closer— the gentle breaths escaping his lips and teasing the hairs on your neck, causing you to shiver.
You quickly emerge from the little world of the icy machine, settling with the first thing you see to avoid being with him in such closeness—which is a simple vanilla bean yoghurt.
The tension in the air feels painfully thick and awkward, and you silently mutter prayers in hopes that he leaves the minute he finds what he’s looking for— but he doesn't.
Sunghoon emerges with an energy drink, the crisp sound of the can opening cutting through the white noise. He effortlessly leans against the marble counter, taking a slow deliberate sip of the drink, Adam's apple rising and falling as he swallows. As he pulls the can away, he casually wipes his bottom lip with his thumb, gaze locking onto you again.
Your yoghurt suddenly looks really interesting, reading the indecipherable scientific words in the ingredient list and immersing yourself in the brand's origin story, all in an effort to avoid the intense presence of the guy in front of you.
“We should talk about Thursday night.” Your heart sinks in dread. Your face begins to burn and you nervously clear your throat, “talk about what?”
“You know what Y/N.” He says, stepping closer to you. Sunghoon settles the sweaty can onto the counter, surveilling your surroundings before he lowers his voice, “So you’re just gonna pretend like you don’t remember?”
You finally glance at the guy, whose brown eyes are already boring into your soul, searching for any sort of answer in your stoic expression. You swallow thickly as you revisit Thursday night’s events for the umpteenth time and it all still feels like a dream.
The way Sunghoon kissed you in a way that left you breathless, hands gripping your waist so tight as though you’d slip away any second.
You clearly remembered it as though it were yesterday, the tingling sensation of his fingertips on your skin, the scent of his cologne filling the air, the lustrous look in his eyes when he pulled away, only to have you lean in for more.
You indeed did kiss your best friend's brother.
“Sunghoon.” You sigh, "Can't we just put it behind us? We weren't in the right state of mind,"
Sunghoon shook his head with a frustrated sigh, leaving his spot beside you and positioning himself in front of you. His hands gripped the edge of the counter on either side of you, effectively trapping you and preventing your escape.
“Y/N, both of us know that isn’t true.” Sunghoon pauses and your breath gets caught in your throat when his hand meets your cheek, his cold touch sending delightful shivers down your spine.
"Are you honestly telling me that didn't hold any meaning for you?" His voice was low, almost tinged with frustration.
You finally look away, unable to keep the nerve-wracking eye contact but Sunghoon makes a sound of disapproval, his hand swiftly moving to your chin and turning you to meet his face again.
He emits a hum, eyebrows raised and anticipating a response, and your mouth opens, but you struggle to articulate any kind of excuse.
You hate just how much you dwindle under Sunghoon’s presence, hoping that he can’t hear the hammering of your heart, along with the nervous breaths that slip past your lips whenever he looks at you.
“Well it did for me.”
“I liked it.” He shrugs, leaning in, dimples denting his cheeks with a knowing smirk when he catches the way your body reacts.
“And I’d give anything to feel those lips again” He admits desperately, voice below a whisper. You can only let out a shaky breath as Sunghoon’s thumb toys with the plump flesh of your bottom lip, slowly inching closer to him and finally closing the gap between you two.
Kissing Sunghoon feels just like the first time, an electrifying sensation coursing through your body, with your heart pounding so loudly that it could reverberate off the kitchen walls. It's like a breath of fresh air, a mixture of exhilaration, longing and relief washing over you.
You sigh, hands finding his face as he kisses back, desperately leaning into the kiss as he matches your fervour, hands slipping to your waist and pulling you closer as if there were still some distance to bridge between you. Your hands wind around his neck, fingers tangling in his dark hair, pulling his face closer as the passionate kisses gradually blend into a makeout session.
The sounds of kissing fill the room, the fridge’s hums doing nothing to drown the rather lewd sounds out. Sunghoon breaks away from you, his breathing uneven. His cheeks carry a faint blush, and his hair is a cute mess.
It takes everything in you not to gravitate back to the solace of his soft and pretty lips and you’re taken aback, nearly letting out a surprised yelp when his hands swiftly reach for the back of your thighs, effortlessly lifting you up and placing you onto the chilly surface of the marble countertop.
You’re now at eye-level and without warning, he is back on your lips, hands finding themselves under the thin material of your tank top and the cold metal of his rings against your flaming skin make your arch your back reflexively.
He pulls away, teeth softly tugging your bottom lip, with a breathy groan before he moves your jawline, sloppy open mouthed kisses travelling down your neck, sucking and nipping at the delicate skin, softly whimpering and sighing as the sensation blurred any rational thought that was left in your mind.
His hand slipped past your sternum, over your flimsy tank top and under it, brushing over your hot skin and on landing your breast, giving the flesh a soft squeeze.
Sunghoon’s lips follow suit, lips gliding over your collarbone before lifting your shirt up and attaching his lips to your nipple without warning, soft moans filling the quiet room as his tongue swipes over the erect bud.
Your fingers weaved in his soft hair, tugging on it as he moved to the other, kissing, nipping and sucking, the feeling snowballing the ache between your legs.
He finally pulled away with a ‘pop’, glancing back at your clouded state, eyebrows furrowed and bottom lip between your teeth.
“You’re so, so fucking beautiful.” Sunghoon groans, gently grabbing your face, kissing you messily. His hands glide to your hips, lips moving sloppily and hungrily against yours.
His pulls you closer to his body, legs hooked around his waist and that’s when you feel it, something hard poking the inside of your inner thigh and when you pull yourself closer, it perfectly hits your aching cunt, a dizzying wave of pleasure coursing through you, your moans being swallowed by mouth— and you can tell you’re not the only one who feels this way when you hear Sunghoon’s lewd groans.
You can't help but subconsciously roll your hips against him, grabbing at his waist and looking for some kind of friction– chasing the same feeling of pleasure that you felt before. You shamelessly moan at the lovely feeling of his clothed dick hitting you in the right spot, only making you more impatient and needy.
Sunghoon’s low moans make your stomach flip, and you want to hear more of them but he stops—pulling away from your lips and gripping your waist so tightly you're sure it would leave a bruise.
“If you keep doing that, I’ll have to fuck you on the counter.” He warns, but you can’t take it seriously, not when his voice is so breathy and raspy.
“Then do it.” You whine, begging the man to throw you onto the counter like a rag doll and fuck you into oblivion.
But he only shakes his head, hands cupping your flushed cheeks, “I still want to make you feel good.” Sunghoon presses a soft kiss on your swollen lips.
His fingers tug the waistband of your shorts, and you lift yourself up as he swiftly removes them— the warmth of your skin meeting the contrasting marble. “As much as I’d love to hear your pretty moans, try to be quiet, alright?” You nod quickly, impatient and desperate for him to just touch you already.
You suck in your stomach with a quiet gasp when his fingers trail across the smooth skin of your thighs, “So soft…” He mumbled against your lips, hands sliding to the inside of your thighs, higher…higher, until his fingers find their way to your underwear toying with its lacy hem, before reaching the place where you need him most.
You inhale sharply, almost failing to hold back a moan when he finally touches your clothed clit, fingers rubbing over the wet fabric. You’re almost embarrassed by how quickly you lean into his touch, inaudibly yearning for more.
“Fuck Hoon.” You breathe out, hands covering your mouth, muffling your needy moans as he traced over the wet spot in circular motions, whimpering every time his thumb
“You’re so wet.” Sunghoon hisses, bottom lip between his teeth as he stares at you, eyes dark and pupils slightly blown.
“Shit, is this all for me?” Sunghoon's velvety whispers against your lips seem so far away as your eyes flutter shut, “Sunghoon, please.” You manage to whimper out, hands meeting his naked chest.
“Please what?” He hums, feigning obliviousness and you groan, feeling your pride slowly wither away. “I…I need you.” You whined. “So bad.”
“Yeah?” Sunghoon coaxed and you nodded desperately, a smirk creeping onto his lips that you wished you could wipe off— if it wasn’t for the pent up sexual frustration you felt and its fate lying in his hands…literally.
He wasted no time meeting your pleas, dragging the fabric to the side as fingers slid against your slick glistening folds, hand flying to your mouth and head falling back at the newfound pleasure coursing through you.
Your other hand gripped his shoulders, nails digging into the skin of his back and earning a hiss from Sunghoon’s lips. His fingers easily slip into your hole, your arousal more than enough to let his fingers move with his ease— and you feel like you’re seeing stars.
“Fuck” A choked moan slips past your lips with a gasp, hand falling limp– overwhelmed with pleasure. “You like that baby?” Sunghoon coos, and you only hum in content, breaths coming in hitches as Sunghoon worked his fingers inside of you, pumping in and out at a satisfying and rhythmic pace.
Holding in your moans was getting harder and he could tell, watching your face contort in frustration and both pleasure, surprised your lips hadn’t started bleeding from biting too hard.
“...feels so good” You manage to let out, half lidded eyes meeting the man before you, practically enamoured by your presence. “I d-don’t think I can...fuck” You choked out. “Come on baby, I know you can take it.” Sunghoon’s words almost send you over the edge. Your head lulls forwards, mouth falling agape as strings of curses spill out of your lips.
As though he wanted to taunt you, you felt his thumb press onto your swollen clit, letting out a shocked and rather loud moan into the air. “Sunghoon-” You moaned, lips pursed together as you tried to compose yourself, but you were already falling apart.
The obscene noises of your drenched cunt and your choked moans and whimpers fill the kitchen, feeling your face grow warm. You hide your face in the crook of his neck and you hear Sunghoon chuckle, leaning back and lifting your head with fingers holding your face, “Come on baby, I wanna see your beautiful face when I make you come.”
Sunghoon could feel your legs beginning to tremble, as your walls fluttered around his fingers, chest heaving and soft moans becoming just a pitch higher.
His fingers quicken its pace, curving at an angle that seems to send you over the moon, failing to hold back your moans as he moves faster.
Afraid of another slip up, Sunghoon lips meet yours, swallowing your broken moans that can’t be helped as you near your high. An aching intense feeling begins to brew at the pit of your abdomen, driving your nails down the skin of his chest undoubtedly leaving a mark.
You cry his name out, followed by a mutter of profanities as you finally come around his fingers. “So beautiful.” He whispers, hand meeting your face as his thumb brushes the tears coating your lashes. He presses a gentle kiss on your parted lips— still a bit lightheaded to return it, slowly coming down from your high.
Sunghoon’s fingers finally slip out, a broken mewl leaving your lips at the lost feeling. He takes the liberty of cleaning his fingers with his tongue, heat rushing to your face as hums at the taste of you.
“What?” Sunghoon’s shrugs, “You taste good.” He smirks, hands finding the mess of your hair and pulling you into his lips, the kiss softer and more saccharine than the ones before.
You can still feel something poking your leg and your eyes flicker down to Sunghoon’s sweatpants, but before you can say anything, you hear the sound of a door click open upstairs and you and Sunghoon both exchange a look of alarm and horror.
The sound of Sooah’s voice sends you two in a frenzy, Sunghoon helping you slide off the counter as you pull down your shirt and scramble for your shorts.
“Y/N?” She calls out, feet pattering against the wooden stairs, as she descends to the first floor.
You both grab your long forgotten midnight snacks, settling yourself on a chair across from Sunghoon while he stands behind the counter…rightfully so.
When Sooah enters the kitchen, she thankfully doesn’t speculate anything, you two are both glued to your phones, scrolling on some sort of social media platform.
“Sooah, hey!”
“Hey…I was wondering where you went.” She smiled at you before her eyes flickered to her brother, exchanging their usual sibling formalities by grimacing at each other.
“I just came down for a snack, that's all.” You smiled, trying to conceal the mild shakiness of your voice.
Instead she moves closer to you, hands brushing your stray hairs into place, “Okay, well…I’ll see you upstairs.” And with that she leaves the kitchen.
Both of you let out sighs of relief, glancing at one another. Your face feels hot again, and you rise to your feet, a slight tremble in your thighs.
“I should…probably head back too.” You sigh, nodding your head upstairs.
“Oh! Yeah, right.”
The ceiling light highlights the rosy hue flushed on Sunghoon’s cheeks, his messy hair and plump lips, flashing you one of his pretty smiles, “I’ll see you later princess.”
As you leave the kitchen, Sunghoon fights the urge to pull you in for just one more kiss. His eyes linger until you disappear from view, and with a soft sigh, he runs his hands through his dark hair.
Now how was he going to fix his hard-on ?

What is Samhain?
Samhain, celebrated from October 31st to November 1st in the Northern Hemisphere and from April 30th to May 1st in the Southern Hemisphere, is a sacred time when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. During this festival, the boundaries between realms dissolve, allowing the unseen to come forward. It’s a time to honor our ancestors and offer them hospitality as we transition into the darker half of the year. While it marks the end of the old year, Samhain also heralds the beginning of a new one, reminding us that death is always followed by rebirth, making this festival a powerful moment of transformation.
It is pronounced "Sow-en," which means "summer's end" and aligns with Halloween in the Northern Hemisphere. Samhain marks the time when the Earth enters a period of rest, the days shorten, and winter begins its slow arrival. During this time, the air becomes crisper, the nights grow longer, and the warmth of summer fades, symbolizing the end of one cycle and the start of another.
Samhain holds deep significance as it is a time to remember and honor those we have lost. The thinning of the veil allows for a stronger connection with ancestors, spirits, and otherworldly beings. While it’s a time to venerate these spirits and fair folk, who are particularly active during this liminal period, it’s also essential to protect oneself from any harmful entities that may cross through.
A key aspect of Samhain is honoring and respecting the dead. One simple yet meaningful tradition is to set an extra place at the table for any spirit or ancestor, offering them a meal. Many witches also visit cemeteries to pay respects, not only to their own ancestors but also to those forgotten by time, ensuring no spirit is left without recognition.

Morrigan x Dagda and Samhain
According to legend, the Irish deities the Dagda and the Morrigan consummate their relationship today to ensure the fertility of land, people, and animals for the year to come. The Dagda, “the good god,” is the tribal father god; the Morrigan, “the phantom queen,” is often described as a “battle goddess,” although that only hints at her powers. She begins the Great Rite in the form of an old hag but is rejuvenated by the union, regaining her youth and beauty. On the eve of Samhain, the Dagda, god of strength and fertility, meets the Morrigan, goddess of war and fate, at the River Unius. As he prepares for battle against the Fomorians, ancient enemies of the Tuatha Dé Danann, he encounters the Morrigan bathing in the river. They make love, a symbolic act representing the union of the land (the Morrigan) with its protector (the Dagda). In return, the Morrigan promises to aid the Tuatha Dé Danann, using her powers of prophecy and battle to help them secure victory. Her role as a goddess of fate is essential, shaping the outcome of the war and the future of the land.

me and oracle did a rainworld campaign with a slugpup, i was spearmaster and ney were rivulet, and ney had to keep baby (midnight, a black slugpup) with them and i was on fighting duty.
i got killed by So Many Things. lizards, centipedes, worm grass, worm grass, worm grass (because the rain deer wouldnt let me on it and only ney could get on), the rain.
it was like every cycle i got killed near the start, meaning oracle had to hoof it to the next shelter and fuckin hope ney didnt die on the way.
i didnt even get to the games ending because scavengers decided to fucking murder me while i was paying the toll 💀💀💀💀
#ravio rants#ravio reacts (rainworld)#it was hell. it was fun and i love baby midnight but dying every single cycle because something fucked me over really sucked.#i was just trying to make sure there was as few enemies as possible and it went horribly (plus my pc decided to lag so so so hard)#never babysitting slugpups in story mode again. babies are a sandbox mode thing 💀💀#and im not bad at the game by any means either. im not amazing but i can hold my own pretty decently#especially in multiplayer bc extra people to help out. but ough

Alright guys here we are:
Lovely entries! Wonderful. I'm sure all the fandoms are very unhinged in their own respects, love that. Here are the series which have sucessfully gained entry in this crazy contest, having more than 3-4 reblogs:
All For The Game
Warrior Cats
The locked tomb
The raven cycle
The secret history
Percy Jackson and the Olympians [Check the pointer 4]
The Shadowhunter chronicles [Check the pointer 3]
Six of Crows
Heartstopper series
...Homestuck
22 Remaining! Keep voting!
Of course I've got a lot more entries, but we need atleast 3-4 reblogs in support to add them to the list of Very Normal Books. I'll list them below:
2 votes on:
A series of unfortunate events
wings of fire
ma dao zu shi
Okay cool so a few pointers here:
1.This poll is absolutely inclusive of books in another language and/or manga. Go ahead! Just gather the required number of rbs on them.
2. The entries will be accepted for book series. Riordanverse, Osemanverse, Grishaverse, 'anything/all books by so-and-so' etc. are not counted because they do not specify the series. Standalone books work, but you'll have to be specific with the name.
3. However, the shadowhunter chronicles will not have separate series because of being set in the same universe. The main reason is that it would be unfair to other series/standalones if the same universe is given multiple entries, since this is a single elimination contest (The template is already attached above).
4. The same point: Percy Jackson and the Olympians already includes Heroes of Olympus. This is done to keep things fair, is all.
5. Also guys i said books. Book series. why are there reblogs with tv series do you guys like to fuck with me like that
There are couple of beautiful entries that definitely deserve a chance up there! Make sure to vote up!
FINAL RANT I PROMISE:
Curious? Questions? Problems? What the fuck is op upto? You can drop in your concerns in my inbox. I'll tag all related asks/posts as '#most unhinged fandom bracket' which you can check out whenever.
Nothing is set in stone, this poll is for everyone, any change that has a massive demand shall be made wherever appropriate!
Goodbye you crazy ass fictional character lovers go live in the real world (not that i do but yeah)
Amazing we're here because i love wasting my life on tumblrdotcom
I propose:
THE MOST UNHINGED FANDOM EVER ON TUMBLR
I mean all of us are on tumblr and we're unhinged about everything
I use my ability to make polls and will start a bracket(???) wherein we all fight tooth and nail for winning the most insane fan-following of our favourite book series.
Oh yeah. This bracket is for Book Series, others may follow soon/an hour later/ 17 year later!!
To Enter: Reblog with your entry in the tags, fandom that gets more than 4 rbs will be added to the list!
Hurry! the first 32 fandoms get the chance to be pitted against one-other and we'll all have a crazy time and all that
LESSGOOOO
NOTE: DO NOT REBLOG WITH HARRY POTTER IN THE TAGS. YOU WILL BE BLOCKED.
