[laheyxlover]

could you do a fic about the reader being a singer and she goes to one of luke's NHL hockey games and she is spotted there like Taylor swift was and than she writes a whole love album about her and luke

Luke Hughes x Reader.

1k

(Warnings: mentions of injuries and slight angst with fluff ending)

(I was really stoned when I wrote this so feel free to tell me if this sucks!)

Summary: When you go to one of Luke Hughes games, not knowing he was a famous hockey player. You suddenly find out more about your bumble match than you had over the last month.

Pls request!!

“Could you do a fic about the reader being a singer and she goes to one of luke's NHL hockey games and she is spotted there like Taylor swift was and then she writes a whole love album about her and luke”.

You were at a hockey game where your best friend begged you to go with her. Rachel’s boyfriend, Dawson played for the New Jersey Devils. He had even texted her a copy of two tickets so that Rachel, your friend, didn't have to ditch you during your last night in jersey. 

You weren’t a huge fan of hockey, having grown up in Oregon. The sport was not very popular in the small town she was located in. The huge Jumbo-tron started playing one of your songs from the upcoming album. 

Your friend, Rachel couldn’t help but giggle knowing you had just released the ep only a few days ago.

Suddenly the Jumbo-tron showed a picture of you. The feed was live and caused you to laugh when you notice they are still playing your song. 

The camera pointed to Rachel who was holding onto you dramatically, as she sang your new song, ‘Sweet’. 

It then panned to you singing to Rachel, as if she was the reason you wrote the song. The truth was, you met this cute guy on bumble a month ago. He was tall, with the soft curls that you loved to play with. The only red flag you had was that he was pretty secretive. Which is saying something coming from a popstar. 

Once the Jumbo-tron faded, you turned to watch as they panned over to the New Jersey Devils newest player of the year. His face was bright red as he stared at the Jumbo-tron with the cutest look before ducking his head down once he noticed the Camera on him. 

“Luke?” you gasped seeing the boy who was currently your celebrity crush. He was also the boy she met a month ago on bumble. 

Rachel looked just as confused until she saw the contact photo you had for him. It was a rare photo of him giving you a genuine smile. 

Rachel had met Luke at one of Dawson’s parties. She however, didn’t know that Luke even had a girlfriend. Rachel also didn’t know much about the mysterious boy in your life either. 

You looked down at your phone,

L: “You didn’t tell you we were going to a hockey game tonight..” 

Y: “You didn’t tell me you were a hockey player..”

You rolled your eyes as you looked up to see the panicked look on his face from across the ice. 

L: “I am sorry, I was too nervous to ask your pr team to meet mine..” 

Y: “I am not mad, I am upset you didn’t feel like you should tell me..”

L: “I was going to tell you soon!”

Y: “I don’t want excuses..”

Flipping your phone around on your lap, your eyes locked with his across the ice rink. Luke sent you an apologetic look that made your frown slightly turn into a smile. 

Luke always knew how to make you smile. When your ep got leaked a day before release. When the paparazzi caught the back of him as you kissed in the street. 

You sent him a glare before slowly turning your lips into a soft smile once Luke rolled his eyes. He just really paid attention to your body language too. 

Once the game started it was intense, the devils had previously lost against the rangers. So now the game was even more stressful for you and Rachel. 

During the third period, Luke was hit into the wall so hard his helmet fell off. You stood up and started screaming at the ranger who had hit him. The ranger looked over and was surprised to see you, a new yorker. Screaming bloody murder at him for hitting a devil. 

In truth, if you had to pick a sport. It would be baseball, you just grew up with it. So you weren’t known for being a ranger, but most of the world just assumed you were.

Apparently having the guy you really like get hurt, immediately washes away the anger from him lying to you. 

Once Luke was given the ‘ok’ from the medics team, he rushed into the locker room before quickly changing. Jack had taken his place in the game, not wanting his brother to risk stressing out his body any further. 

As you kept spamming his phone to see how he was doing, Luke slid in the empty chair next to you. Not many of the local fans cared enough to buy glass tickets for a pre-season game. So he felt fine not alerting the security that he was sitting in the stands. 

Once you saw him you let out a gasp of relief. Wrapping your arms around him, your neck pressing against his. 

“Oh my- I am so mad at you right now..” You mumbled into his ear as he wrapped his arms around you. 

“I know, pretty girl. I am sorry” Luke cooed, pulling you closer to him. 

“Don’t ever lie to me again.” You said sternly pulling your face away from him. You meant business, and he knew it. 

“I won’t.” Luke replied breathly, like he couldn’t believe you weren’t way madder than he had envisioned previously. 

“And be careful, because I don’t wanna have to worry about you like that again..” You said hitting his arms lightly. 

“Ow!” Luke said, rubbing his arms. The look on your face was priceless as you realized he could’ve hurt worse than you thought. 

Luke chuckled softly as he raised his arms in defense. 

“I was kidding-..” Luke tries before you lightly start cursing at him.  

“You little brat! You scared the crap out of me..” You said frowning at him, you both knew he could stop you. But Luke preferred the way you looked at him.

[ID: two photos, the first of Jessica Law, Rachel L. Hughes, and Kofi Young, taken from the music video for The Mermaid’s Revenge; the second of Frank Voss and Kofi Young, performing as Ashes O’Reilly and Marius von Raum, respectively.

Photo One:

Kofi has light brown skin and very short dark brown hair and facial hair; they wear a white, long sleeve, collared shirt under a black (possibly velveteen) coat with dark grey trousers; their face is not seen enough to determine an expression.

Sirens (Ulysses Dies At Dawn)

Edinburgh Fringe, 2013

[alientoastt]

hey are you a mechanisms enjoyer or perhaps a fan of the new albion tetralogy

have you ever wanted to hear R L Hughes' full vocal range as she plays two characters often in the same song as one another? Tim Ledsam as a morally repugnant but slightly sexy priest? an exploration of religious guilt around sex and where a sex worker gets a happy ending that doesn't involve no longer having sex? heavy fucking themes and jazzy instrumentals? you should listen to Lolina: Origins.

With a mish-mash of jazz, rock, classical and electronic music this concept EP tells the story of our heroine Lolina as she is taken from the brothels of dystopian Mars to the wastelands of post-apocalyptic Earth and beyond...

Vocals Lolina and Mariella: Rachel Hughes The Patriarch: Tim Ledsam OrganaTech Doctor: Jessica Law Backing Vocals: Jessica Law, Ben Below, Rachel Hughes Spoken Vocals: Tim Ledsam, Ben Below, Rachel Hughes

Instruments Piano and E-Piano: Rachel Hughes Violin and Electric Violin: Marius von Raum [sic.; released in 2017 and Kofi Young was credited as MvR until... I want to say 2020?] Fretless Bass, Electric Guitars, Banjo, Saxophone, Ewi, Electric Drums, Synths: Ben Below

content warnings under the cut this album is a lot. but its very good

religious guilt / extremism / kidnapping / forced conversion yeah quite a lot of it is about the whole uh. this congregation treats its women like shit and especially Lolina. I think it's handled well and there's an added layer of removal in the fact that it's like. on Mars. if that helps

a character kills herself because she realizes she has feelings for another woman and has been made to feel unclean for this. this is pretty much entirely contained in "Mariella's Lament", but is like. pretty integral to the story at play

hospital noises in Hospital Bed + medical malpractice. which isn't quite the right word for the deal with healthcare in this album but it's the best i can do without just Describing What Happens In The Album. general cyberpunk "you don't own parts of your body" type medical malpractice?

[majorshatterandhare]

[ID: a photo and GIF featuring Gunpowder Tim (Tim Ledsam) playing violin.

The photo is taken by someone sitting at a drum set, both Kofi Young and Tim are visible and Kofi is teaching Tim to play the violin. Kofi is on the left of the image and Tim is on the right. Past them, across from the drum set, Rachel Hughes is sitting at a desk with a keyboard atop it. The head of someone with dark hair and light skin is visible; it appears they are sitting on the floor between Kofi and the drum set. Kofi has mid-tone skin and short, shaggy, curly, dark hair. They wear glasses and a white button up shirt tucked into olive pants with black suspenders. Tim has light skin, long, wavy, brown hair, and his face is mostly obscured by his violin and bow. He is wearing a dark green velveteen coat and dark pants. Rachel is turned somewhat to the right, speaking and gesticulating with her right hand. She has light skin and very long blonde hair. Her legs cannot be seen, as she is sitting in a wooden chair facing away from the viewer, but she seems to also be wearing a velveteen coat, although hers is burgundy in color. The room this practice is taking place in has light blue walls, with a wide white stripe at the top. The ceiling and trim are white. The desk which Rachel sits at is in a bay window with light colored shades pulled to various heights and dark blue curtains pulled to the side. The desk also has a monitor and possibly some other tech stuff on and around it, including what looks like a mic stand. The light coming in these windows creates a bit of glare but it doesn’t interfere with any of the people visible. Behind and to the left of Kofi a dark wooden wardrobe can be seen with something unidentifiable atop it. The walls behind Tim displays posters of the Mechanisms, including portraits and wanted signs. Behind and to the right of Tim there is a soft surface, possibly a bed, which is covered in a blue blanket and has a white blanket or pillow crumpled atop it. The head and top of the body of a larger stringed instrument (probably a guitar) is laying on the bed. There a black plastic bin behind Tim near the desk. One drum from the set can barely be seen, it has a black head, and two high hats are visible, one of which has the word “Paiste” printed on it followed by the numbers 1, 0, 1.

The GIF shows Tim, dressed in his Gunpowder costume, playing the violin on stage. He is mostly centered in the frame, but it shirts a bit as the GIF progresses. Behind and to the left of Tim, Ben Below, in his Drumbot Brian costume, can be seen playing the drums. Further to the left, the head of Frank's five string bass begins in frame and moves to be mostly out of frame. It appears that there may be a person behind Tim to the right, however it is so poorly lit there that if it is a person it is very difficult to tell who and what they are doing aside from possibly moving an arm. Tim's costume consists of dark brown pants, a brown vest, a white long sleeve shirt and a long brown coat. He wears at least two belts which pass over the coat and likely have a gun tucked in the (viewer's) right side which is darkened in the GIF. He wears welding goggles on top of his head and looks at his left hand while he plays. Ben also has long, wavy hair of a reddish color and facial hair. His costume includes dark pants, a white button up shirt, a dark vest, and a top hat which is decorated with welding goggles and a rose. The background is very dark, but the ceiling is white. The lighting is reflecting mostly green on the five string instrument, Ben and his drums, and the top of Tim. The bottom of Tim is lit more in purple, while the parts of Ben which are behind something else and the mysterious probable-person are lit in an orange-red color.

[its-to-the-death]

Bracket F thoughts:

Jesus flipping crisis, those fucking elephant calls in "Prowler's theme" are so terrifying. Also I really like how it's basically Miles' theme in reverse, both because of how it emphasizes the relationship between Miles and Aaron and because of...certain events in Across the Spiderverse.

"Candy Store" has that bitchy confidence, but "Mother Knows Best" is the emotional abuser's anthem par excellence. Like I could do a whole ask dissecting all the shit Gothel pulls in that one song to undermine and manipulate Rapunzel.

(She'd be one of my favorite Disney villains if she wasn't also a heaping pile of antisemitic stereotypes...)

I was liking "The Music of the Night," but then it tried to murder my ears with that organ(?) at the end, so I'll give this one to "What's Up Duloc?", which is also admittedly quite good.

One of these won the 1994 Razzie for Worst Original Song. The other is Rachel L Hughes playing a megalomaniacal dictator crooning about her space train (which she fucks) that definitely is not going to unleash Yog Sogoth ;). Vote for "Odin" right now.

"Dressed to Oppress" is delightful, but oh my god that reprise of "Good Kid" in "The Last Day of Summer" hits like a truck.

As people have discussed in the notes, "The Convoluted Reasons We Pretend to Be Divorced" is not that villainous--and frankly I didn't find it as much of a bop as some other PnF songs I've listened to. "We Both Reached For the Gun" is a masterclass is manipulation as Billy plays the press for suckers so completely he doesn't even need Roxy to speak for him by the end. Also the fucking puppet acting, wow.

...Ok it might not be the best villain song, but "Penny battle theme" goes so hard I had to support it. Sue me.

I voted "Someone Gets Hurt," but they're both great. That one was close.

"One-Winged Angel" is iconic and intimidating, but I personally prefer the energy of "Cell-Block Tango." The dancing is amazing, the lyrics are witty, and the chorus is an earworm and a half. I also like the use of visual symbolism with the red handkerchiefs to symbolize how each murderess killed her victim(s)--except the innocent Hungarian woman, who dances angelic ballet to their aggressive tango and is the only one with a white handkerchief.

Who doesn't love an unabashed villainess who destroys worlds in battle armor and sneakers? "I'm the Bad Guy" is a bop.

"Pieces of You" is a goofy and terrifying fever dream of a song, holy fuck. The visuals give this one the edge for me. Also, don't you want to support The Substitute? He's just a little guy :)

"A Freak Like Me Needs Company" ultimately just got kind of lost for me--it focused too much on villains in general and not on Norman himself, while "The Only Thing I Know For Real" is both a kickass rock song and a great piece of characterization for Jetstream Sam.

...I don't know, I like Zelena's actress' singing and I think it's funny that she's not cursed to sing in this episode and she's just doing this for shits and giggles. I voted "Wicked Always Wins."

To quote someone in the comments of the "Bloody Party/Welcome to Cake Island" video, "This is the most Disney-like bulshit [sic] I have ever seen in an anime, and I fucking love it." What the fuck is happening. Why are these people committing casual mass murder for cake ingredients. Why are inanimate objects singing along with this pirate lady. I don't know but it scares me.

"The Smell of Rebellion" really picks up in the end, and "Love For Peasants" felt a little too unfocused musically. Also, @thatsluttytiefling mentioned that the song gave them "war flashbacks to the choreo," so it is villainous IRL as well.

Oh my god how the fuck did "This is the Thanks I Get" get released in this state. The lyrics don't rhyme properly and are exceedingly awkward to boot. The chorus is bland as shit. The visuals are boring. There's no buildup from "I'm an underappreciated hero doing my best for the kingdom and nobody respects me enough :(" to "I want ULTIMATE POWAH through DAAAAAARK MAGIC" and then it suddenly just switches back to how it was before??? It's not intimidating and scary, it's silly for all the wrong reasons, it's not even particularly sympathetic, and it is reeking of trying to be hip and cool and/or being written by people with too little time and too few fucks to give. "Heaven on Their Minds" is very good in its own right, but I kind of already knew which one was better before I even heard it, because this song just...doesn't do its job.

I agree that the villain Phineas and Ferb songs aren't among the best the show has to offer.
