The Bullyingying

Unfortunately for Shoichi’s rage fit, Niklaus was having none of it - especially since as well... He didn’t want him to get in trouble either, and the twin’s resolve was there on his face. Not even considering the others, or one that was probably inches away from a bludgeoning and left them to recover on their own with the sheer confusion. Niklaus only glared back at him in return, although only in the slights did he catch only briefness to the look on his face. Niklaus would rather get him out of the room before anything bad happens - despite the backlash, he didn’t answer his question.

“Let’s go. We’re leaving.” He stated firmly, not even aware of how bad thing’s could’ve truly got if he hadn’t stepped in. Whether or not he still had the walking cane in hand, Niklaus pulled his weight along with him and backed it for the door. There was only as sliver lining as Shoichi got. He obvious didn’t want the person who helped him awhile back to suffer dumb consequences or get boxed over violence. 

When Niklaus got more towards the door, he chimed in, ignoring the familiar gaze and the latter.  “No, I’m not his bodyguard, either. Talk about great timing, but let’s not get put in a box if it can be helped.” Niklaus’ grip loosened up with some consideration, but more than ready to react and  keep tight if he thought that was his chance to move.

She didn’t mind being up at absurd hours of the morning, much since she couldn’t sleep well all the time. But this morning was more important than most, even if that meant leaving the bed stealth like and earlier than she’d like - where she was cozier with her love. 

Although, as well as not having anything immediate it in mind for a gift for his birthday - Josiah wasn’t put off by trying to do something nice for him before he wakes up. Or more like, when he did... Cooking quietly wasn’t too hard but still enough to make her nervous and try moving quickly with what she had on hand to make and what obtained from stores that were open at the hour. 

Even if the lot of it wasn’t perfect but done as best as Josiah could. All of it was plated tidy before carefully taking it all the goods back to the room with quieted foot steps, a drink in hand with a near anxious look on Josiah’s face. But once she stepped into frame and peeked her head around the corner at the sleeping Valerie like a mouse, steps maneuvered into the room in a quick stride - lips pulled into a purse before setting the plate of the half few waffles and a few pancakes on the nightstand. Hesitantly placed whipped cream was on the side with a considerate amount of raspbebby syrup incase he preferred that more. All in best to shake off any worry it might not be to his taste and she did it wrong - Josiah set the glass of orange juice down next to it before carefully cozying down on his side of the bed towards the edge.

Hands gently placed atop his shoulder, leaning over to peer at Valerie better before leaning down to nose at his cheek to gently coax him awake. A few soft kisses and nestles ghosted down towards his jawline with a smile, more intended to wake him with her affections. Once he started stirring a bit, she braced her weight more against him before nestling up more towards his ear with a more than audible murmur of, “happy birthday, my love.” Josiah wasn’t trying to rattle him awake suddenly but it didn’t stop her from scooping around Valerie’s frame with a soft hug. “I made you breakfast. Hope you like it.”

"The bigger the boobs , the stronger they are. that’s anime logic, at least." [Hewwo from the outside]

Squinting, she was trying to process that logic in comparison to herself. Not that she believed it by any means, but she didn't spare herself a glance before reeling her head back a little bit, bearing a tooth briefly.

"The hell are you on? Does every lass with big cleavage equal overpowered and godsent? That doesn't sound right- what that sounds like it back issues and someone needs a deflated tit." She spoke plainly, flinching by the countless times she'd seen such images around.

"That count for males in that genre or is that simply pancake pecks? Bigger the pancake the better?"

🔥 If your OC known for having temper tantrums? If not, what gets them really angry? What makes their blood BOIL? Is there anyway to calm them down or are they unstoppable? What are they like when they’re angry? Do they take it out on their loved ones?

@akphaezya

Oh no, never. She grew up seeing one too many people fly into exaggerated, ranging from comical to terrifying fits of rage and making overly dramatic scenes in public. Whether they were family members or even frustrated members of the palace and/or diplomats back home, she’s seen quite enough of that already. These types of episodes always heightened her anxiety, and she found them rather difficult to watch. The sheer embarrassment of such scenes combined with the curiosity of onlookers irrelevant to the event have never failed to make her cringe, and she would very much like to avoid that feeling if she can.  Not to mention the amount of physical and negative energy that would have to be concentrated into allowing herself to even reach that point of thrashing and writhing about in such a public display of ire. 

Especially as a rather introverted and timid individual,  she absolutely dreads any confrontations and avoids them if possible. The less attention she draws to herself the better. This goes double for her Castlevania!verse where the fears and suspicions of the mortal masses are already at an all-time high, and her foreignness and study of magicks and medicine abroad is already doing her no favors in that department.  So nope, no temper tantrums for this woman… Though that’s not to say that she herself can’t be a Petty Patty at times. Her anger, annoyance, etc. is more expressed in a passive-aggressive way rather than having an obvious and theatrical display of her extreme dismay. Or if the other individual who’s giving her a hard time is just especially ornery or antagonistic towards her without cause, despite her loathing confrontation, she might even opt to trading barbs with the other person. Even so, she usually would never curse/cuss the person out, at least not to their face. Though that person must’ve really pushed and prodded her with extraordinarily terrible and rude behavior for her to be even willing to throw any of her caution to the wind like that. Like just a fantastically ignorant, condescending troglodyte of a human who really tried their best to demean her or her loved ones in any way. 

When something manages to get Nadir to be the point of anger or annoyance, she will at first attempt to excuse herself from the conversation or whatever it is that is grating ont her nerves.  Depending on how irksome or triggering the thing in question is, she might even vent to a trusted friend depending on the situation and how dire it actually ended up being. In the Arcana!verse, this trusted person would most likely be either Julian or Portia. Jules is actually a pretty darn good listener, and he has actually helped to calm her and encourage her put the situation behind her and to not devote mental energy obsessing over it. Though truthfully, usually even in these matters she tends to be rather reserved and tries to keep things to herself  when possible so that she is not burdening anyone else with her troubles. This especially applies to Castlevania!Nadir since in that verse, Nadir has to be on her toes a lot of the time concerning the sudden appearances of Dracula’s fiends and minions who terrorize Wallachia, and a moment’s inattention/distraction/idle chit-chat could mean her life, or the lives of whoever’s accompanying her (depending on if she’s traveling alone or happens to encounter/join the main three at some point, or even potentially members of other resistance groups).

Cult of Eriyes - The Year All Light Collapsed Billie Eilish - Bury a Friend My Propane - A Dog is a Dog is a Dog Teodasia - Baby Baby Amygdala - I Hate to Say it Reborn - Reality Belzebubs - Cathedrals of Mourning The Veronicas - Think of Me Halestorm - Vicious Röyksopp & Robyn - Monument Lahmia - Her Frantic Call Heilung - Norupo Ankor - Ghosts Fleshgod Apocalypse - Carnivorous Lamb Eliza Red - Angel Wings Dying Passion - Tender Renown (live)

Battle Beast - Endless Summer Billie Eilish - You Should See Me in a Crown Ulver - Nemoralia Avem - Phantoms Mortal Love - My Shadow Self Be Under Arms - The Tsar Project Renegade - Pressure Kerli - Where the Dark Things Are Astray Valley - Hollow Varaha - The Midnight Oath This Gift is a Curse - Wolvking Lunar Path - Drag Me Down to Hell Allamedah - Gloria Antiga

Now for my main obsessions in May.

Banks - Gimme

This song goes in. It's full of so much energy and is just so much fun to jam to. I wish I had a good sound system to blast this on. It would make my jam sessions to it that much better.

Not Enough - Sinner

I love the atmospheric nature of this track. It's so mellow, but still packs a punch with those guitars and the metalcore style screams. And I just absolutely adore the cleans. The cleans are everything and so beautiful.

Emphasis - 70.1% Leviathans

I rekindled my love for this track out of nowhere because it was stuck in my head for a couple of days. It's such a beautiful track and is super proggy. And who can say no to saxophone solos in metal?

New Years Day - Come for Me

Ash's voice just keeps getting better and better. This track is so much fun and full of bombastic energy. The chorus is super catchy and that scream she lets out during the bridge is so epic. The bridge in general is epic.

Akphaezya - The Secret f Time

These guys are the closest we're ever going to get to having an avant-garde metal band as bizarre and epic like Unexpect. The genre shifts and the strange vocal lines are absolutely amazing. When it comes to this genre, the weirder the better in my opinion, and these guys are definitely weird.

Aly & AJ - Church

Who told them to make a song this iconic and amazing? I can't get over how epic and amazing this track is. I need to hurry up and listen to the Sanctuary EP, because they're icons now that need to be worshiped and praised.

And that's it for May. Maybe I'll be able to get June's out earlier than this and last month's lists, but I'm not getting my hopes up lol.

Psst. Just. Do it. Just pretend they’ve bumped into each other on the street or “it was all a fever dream” scenario. Capitalize on ask memes. Take it to the bank

Y’know what that’s actually pretty good advice...I already kinda feel better about it thinking of it that way... thank you!

“(Sor: ) But the murderer can not be her!(Wer: ) So who’s the killer?!”Genesis - Akphaezya

This song is really good and also the whole album is written like a Greek tragedy (hence the fact the lyrics are literally written in play script style with the names of the characters.) It’s after Sor’s father dies.

PUT A “∞” IN MY ASK BOX AND I’LL SHUFFLE MY MUSIC PLAYER AND GIVE YOU MY FAVORITE LYRIC FROM THE SONG THAT COMES UP.

Knox had no idea how he even ended up in this situation, but all he knew was he was getting a bit of pay and he was going to be off post duty for the small while. Could be pull it off? It wasn’t like he was trying to be too harsh and mean about it, he had poor control to some degrees but to say the least he didn’t want the cameras on him for very long either despite his stability right now. The look on his face wasn’t budging at all even after his rough handling but behind his eyes still read sorry since it looked a bit too rough. He was just a mere goon by this point. Yet as soon as he opened his mouth and went off the defiance, Knox hadn’t budged regardless from his own defiance but his features flinched from the uncalled for rebuttal.

“Sure, sure, I’ll take you out on a date to the morgue if you don’t cut the shit, that much for you,” Although the advance of closure had him easy enough to lift a quick hand to grasp just under his jaw, squishing both his cheeks easily with thumb and digits from the grip to disrupt the look he had.

No doubt it was of her biggest concern, mind how fast he blitzed to take care of himself - yet even then, there was a cautionary take when she wanted to go check on him. Just as soon as she was aiming to announce her presence, the sudden slam of the door startled her with a jolt - almost as harsh as a startled cat while she got a small bit of air time from the tiny leap. A small breath of shock, by a hand that cupped over her chest, huffed out a few incoherent words on the spot before cutting the small few feet to the door now. But a brushing stop, Josiah leaned in a little bit with a few small knocks after the passing faintness of words - she hadn’t heeded them and didn’t plan to.

“Are you alright in there, Valerie? Did the food make you unwell?” Her head turned, pressing her ear to the door now with curious silence - albeit a hand, as any normal means when someone closed the door, grasped the knob with a small twist to see if it was unlocked or not.

비평-음악

1. ‘비평적인 음악’은 세 가지 작동을 통해 구성되는 것 같다. 1) 자기가 중요하다고 생각한 흐름들을 선택해서 매핑한다. 2) 그렇게 작성한 자신의 lineage에 자신이 어디쯤 위치하는지 등록하는 review를 음악에 포함시킨다. 3) 동시에 비틀기를 통해 개입하려는 작가 의식을 claim한다. 

그래서 Akphaezya 같은 소위 아방가르드  크로스오버 밴드는 무차별성으로 인해 오히려 비평적이기보다는 장르적으로 느껴진다. 그보다 Cult of Fire 같은 밴드가 더 비평적 성격이 더 뚜렷해보인다. Ihsahn은 자신의 솔로 프로젝트에서 그런걸 하고 싶어한 것 같지만, 열 개에 가까운 정규 앨범들을 통해 뭘 했는지 솔직히 잘 모르겠다. Emperor의 4집보다 유효하지 않다고 생각했고 2020년 신보를 들은 지금도 여전히 그렇다.

2. BTBAM이 그런 '다독가적'인 음악 스타일의 대표 주자일거고 Anatomy of 앨범은 아예 대놓고 자기 음악을 스스로 선택한 계보(들의 커버곡으)로 '해부'했는데, 이러한 독창적인 다독가의 이미지가 훨씬 이전의 음악인 Mr.Bungle의 스타일에서 이미 정립되었다는 게 재밌다.  하지만 BTBAM이 정말 좋은 비평-음악이냐고 하면 그렇게 느껴지진 않고 디스코그라피 내내 장르화된 백화점식 아방가르드 음악 이상의 비전을 보여주지 못했고 결국 드림씨어터의 전통적인 스타일로 회귀한 것 같다.

3. 그리고 사실 이런... 좋아하는 모든 스타일을 '자유롭게' 넘나들며 한번씩 다 언급하려는 태도는 그 자체로 정형화되어있고 차라리 Deathspell Omega와 같이 문법에 scandalous한 질문을 던지고 해체하는 방법이 (자기 복제적일지언정) 더 흥미롭고 정보값이 많게 느껴진다.

4.  최근에 들었던 것 중에 재밌는 건 Katatonia 1집의 올드스쿨 고딕 둠을 믹싱부터 ‘철저한’ 고증으로 똑같이 재현한 Asphodelus의 앨범인데, 높은 완성도의 음악만큼이나  '이제 더 나오지 않는 음악'을 그때 그 모습 그대로 재현한 결과물을 둘러싼 다양한 층위들이 재밌다.
