#and for some reason a fuckton of that has songs like that

[ankiebitez]

random ass thought i had but with all the random shit thats apart of the regular story in obey me i hc that some of the random stories and stuff youll hear involving like the devil/a demon/an angel, etc. are things that actually happened with the characters in om out of context

(for example think back to that one post i made a while ago talking about the bible story where lucifer becomes a snake that tempts eve to eat the forbidden fruit and god punishes snakes by not letting them have legs anymore, random as fuck)

and now im going down a rabbit hole of different old songs that are similar with having a story with religious type stuff bc i was listening to 'magic man' by heart and it describes a man with a magic touch and blue eyes that look right through someone and i started thinking about satan

so now im just thinking about all the songs that could fit this hc.

imagine in obey me lucifer just has some beef with some random ass human guy from georgia that he lost a fiddling competition to like 3,000 years ago bc of that song 'the devil went down to georgia' by charlie daniels

☕how the writers delt with river song

SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP THEY DID MY GIRL SO DIRTY there are so many. good river song moments. and there are so manythat make me want to tear a strip off steven moffat like every goddamn episode with her they have to make some obnoxious sex joke or some Honey Im Home type shit & i understand this is like. A Moffat Theme & i dont always hate it but goddddd its so reductive like there is so much!!!! that could be done with her character !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is overshadowed by haha what if she was sexy like STOPPPPPPPPPPPP.

like silence in the library was a really good character lead in & i like her!!! as a character !!!! even the overly flirtatiousness unfortunately that would work on me but even aside from that. she is a good character let down but the sheer pull-it-out-of-your-ass writing of her backstory. like?? she could regenerate cos she was conceived in the tardis okay thats really cool much weirder stuff has happened when it comes to tardises & making babies but then WE SeE THIS FOR LIKE. ONE OR TWO EPISODES BEFORE THEYRE LIKE WHOOPS THAT DOESNT WORK ACTUALLY COS SHE'S DEAD UHHH SHE BETTER UHMM IDK SAVE TH E DOCTOR OR SOMETHING WHATEVER> COS HER ENTIRE LIFE HAS TO REVOLVE AROUND HIM. HASHTAG MARRIAGE AMIRITE like even the fact that her entire life was shaped around him isnt a Bad Idea it just feels like no one considered the tragic impies (implications) of this, & simultaneously doing amy so dirty in the process as well like??? she loses baby mels & then discovers she was her (never previously mentioned) childhood friend but then she uhhhh dies & turns into this woman you already know and them????? barely eveer mention it again???? holy shit?????????????????????? amy & river is a freaking horror story but one that the writers seem imcapable of dealing with because sOMEONE is too busy making obnoxious jokes about married life

a lot of thsi is specific to the General Vibes of the eleven era stuff as well which was in general so so weird about women & while its not like twelve or any of teh other doctors are expemt from this eleven is a massive dick to people quite a bit & a lot of this falls on river b/c he is seemingly (iirc i havent seen some of this stuff for a while though it Haunts Me) almost careless? with her? like a sort of 'welllllll she's here now so it was all okay in the end :)' sort of attitude ignoring that she went through A Fuckton Of Stuff before she was even a concious human(mostly??) being

even the husbands of river song is tragically guilty of some of that stuff like. she's seen some wild shit & she should have known it was twelve wayyyyyy way way quicker. like i understand why she didnt for plot reasons but she is in fact very intellegent like. she's allowed to show that. unfortunatley sometimes women cant be smart & have their boobs out at that same time I GUESSSSSSSSS

also the nine & river audios from earlier this year? i really like archipelago i listened to that a couple of times & i thought it was really powerful but AGAIN the writers make river So Fucking Obsessed With Romance like. you'd let it go by that point. nine had literally just proved he's the most aro guy in the universe (good for him) and shes stillllllll flirting at him. which. imo she wouldnt do anymore because, shock horror, she does actually like him as a person & values his company and you would think you would be friends wit hthe guy YOU ARE GONG TO MARRY OR WHATEVER. NOT THAT THEIR MARRIAGE WAS PARTICULARLY ROMANTIC EITHERIM GONNA BE SO REAL. obviously sex is important to her & good for her but yikes. it doesnt need to be mentioned so often.

like its the whole 'inherent tragedy of waiting for a time traveller' stuff which i do eat up every time meeting her in silence of the library & knowong that there is so much more there - VERY COMPELLING !! really good character intro augahagaauuaajaaajahhahahahhhh but nooooo her Entire Fucking Goddman Life has to revolve around being manipulated & The Doctor AS WELL AS !! the completely uncalled for ohhhh im a PSYCHOPATH ( <- unfounded & demonstrably untrue lowkey this is saneism right. thats an ableism there yes? ) thing they alllwaysssss have her say like well!! shes not !! theres 'youre talking about commiting a murder'/'no im not, i'm actually commiting a murder' which i like & is funny & she would say that and then theres teh vauge oooohhhhh im so Freaky & I Have A Gun or whatevr like augsugsaihuahahaouoauauoouauoauoauoauuo

also twelve & river had freaky t4t bi4bi aroallo sex after the end of husbands of river song but no actual dw writer is enlightened enough to see that because they have to flatten her into The Doctors Wife & she would have had a far better dynamic with 12 than with 11 (not that i'm biased) i wish they got more time togetherrrrrrrrrrr also you should listen to the bekdel test (diary of river song audio with missy)

What's one of your favourite songs atm? <3

dissociating by Sewerslvt! it's more an all time favorite than a current fixation but I'm taking this opportunity to yap freely

ask me anything on anon :)

I do have a bit of an essay I suggest you read before listening to it in full:

It is definitely not to everyone's music taste, but I personally fucking love music like this. I love the bit of crunch to it and the fuckton of layers of sound and I live for the buildup and the whole organised chaos feel to it that pretty much all of sewerslvt's music has.

Despite the topic the album handles (which I'm not about to dip into because it's pretty heavy) this song has a sort of peaceful but at the same time tragic athmosphere for me. The synth or whatever it is the bg gives a sort of "time is flashing by" vibe to it but the rest keeps the pace slow and measured, while somehow not clashing (a bit like what I feel when my thoughts spiral or yk, dissociate, as the title suggests)

And as much as the first minute (and the crunchy sounding heavy breathing in the bg towards the end) are creepy as fuck they're also comforting in the "disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed" sense, to me it makes the whole piece feel more personal in a way

yt link stamped past the hearing/sanity loss bit

and just to make sure I don't leave this out: the artist has been the centre of controvery for various reasons, none of which I am willing to state my opinion on. their music got me through some tough times and that's all that matters to me tbh

TMA bad end time travel AU set to Dead Girl Walking (Reprise) from Heathers: The Musical (lyric video at the bottom), but 'bad' as in John learned nothing from the first time around and just goes a little off the deep end, and 'end' as in the song itself ends with future John shot. As one does! For the sake of sanity the future counterparts are referred to as Sims and Blackwood. ...This ended up a tad long for no reason oops

Blackwood takes the female lead/Veronica's lines, Sims takes the male lead/JDs lines, Sasha gets Ms.Flemings lines. I think the song itself takes place around when Martin is trapped in his flat? But leading up to this point, Blackwood and Sims hadn't approached the Archival team- they've spent some weeks tracking down avatars and leads beyond the Institute, and arguing about how to go about saving this timeline without coming to a decision. Unbeknownst to Blackwood, Sims decided to put his own halfbaked plan into motion starting like a week prior. [Rest under cut!]

Sims managed to convince Tim that A) he's from the future and trying to right things, and B) the Institute and Jonah need to stop existing asap. Tim is not told of the potential consequences of just deleting the Institute or its head, nor that John has access to a fuckton of explosives- he just needs a second pair of hands to help quickly set things up, distract Jonah, and evacuate the building. Sims probably tells Tim something like his mark of the Stranger keeps him hidden from the Eye, which is why Sims came to him and why he can't tell anyone else; whatever keeps him quiet. Don't ask me how but Blackwood figures out his (very very bad) plan.

Sims plans to go through with it after the workday ends on friday. For one reason or another, Sasha is alone in the archives when Tim and Sims come in; maybe she bullied John into going home, and Martin is already out 'sick.' The two schemers weren't expecting her and make their excuses, Sims telling her she's stayed late enough and should head home, that they'll only be a minute. Suspicious as hell, she waits in the lobby, only to see Blackwood and John come in, which, uh...two Johns! That's Not Normal! {John said you were sick! / "Jason Dean told me you just committed suicide!"}

Blackwood heads to the archives, leaving John with Sasha to quickly trade what they've seen in the lobby. He runs into Tim dumping statements out of containers and wedging all the doors open- at this point he thinks it'll be 'just' a building fire. They have something of a confused/frustrated argument with Tim blocking him from the tunnels, until Blackwood manages to shove past him. Tim follows him down to find Sims handling one of the explosives. {"This is just to trigger the packs of thermals hidden upstairs [around the Institute.]"}

Tim realizes with dawning horror that he'd been played a fool, someone letting it slip that the death of Jonah would possibly kill the employees (and the Institute would possibly kill Sims along with Jonah). And of course, the two lovebirds get to have their dramatic fight, with Blackwood slowly getting closer and Sims looking like he's about to have a breakdown- first appearing like he might give it up, but then- {"I wish you'd come with me!"} His demeanor hardens, reminiscent of how he seemed after taking the Crown but Worse, and subtly takes the detonator out from his pocket. {"I wish I had more TNT."}

Tim and Blackwood now try to wrestle him away from the pipe and take the detonator. There's camera cuts of three people walking down the archives as they fight. {"Here comes Westerburg, comin' to put you in the ground!"} The detonator is dropped and slides away closer to the entrance; Sims is the closest as they all make a drive for it. They get one more (frankly ridiculous looking) scrabble over it on the floor, and as they're focused on each other- {"And send you straight to-!"}

The camera is focused on their upper halves; Sims reacts to an impact. The shot widens out as Blackwood and Tim look down at him and the rapidly growing bloodstain in his chest in shock and horror. They turn to see an equally horrified John and Sasha, accompanied by Elias, smoking gun lowering.

We love open endings :]👍 PLEASE don't stare at the details too hard, this is literally just a long winded excuse to imagine Blorbos From My Shows in catchy songs. Thank you for reading if you did though :]

3 hours into update 2.0.0....

I love it xD But also, I'm a little bit overwhelmed, but UUUURGGGHHH there are some real gems in there already 😩

So, I didn't start a new playthrough for time reasons and went right in with my post-ending save. There was some initial fuckery with my wardrobe outfits that seems fixed now though after unequipping everything and remaking the outfits xD Custom tattoo and scar mods work just fine though and I might test these next few days what other mods do :D I'm really happy about the tattoos though at least :3

Some Bugs

Also, someone desperately needs to send the NCPD some funds cause....

That vehicle doesn't look like it should be allowed in traffic (this happened twice, and I was cackling xDD honestly just a really funny little bug that's probably gonna get fixed somewhere down the line xD)

But yes... Man the new skills and perks and cyberware and EVERYTHING is so fucking cool, but also so fucking overwhelming when you're already level 42+ and have everything at your disposal all at once xD But I was so excited to see all the different new Kiroshi options and how cyberware is tied to skills like... damn. And the strongest quickhacks really need a fuckton of RAM... as they should. And I still need a fuckton of practise in terms of using them, but I'm really excited to get the hang of it all somewhere down the line :D

They didn't forget about the LIs!!!

But then this:

When I read this in the patch notes, I was so fucking excited xD Hell yeah, a good reason to go to the apartment apart from sorting through my inventory xD Some more Johnny interactions!

AND. A DREAM COME TRUE WITH ONE OF THE DIALOGUES!!!

I was always a bit sad that Johnny had no comments whatsoever on V's relationship with Kerry, when he did with some of the other LIs, so this already made my evening xDD and one of the big perks of jumping in with my post-ending save to already get to see and hear this now :DDD Not gonna spoil what he says but... yes XDD It fits, I figured. And I hope the other LIs get something similar because it's glorious xD

Vehicles and Radio

In regards to vehicle handling... I can definitely feel a difference with my go-to bike! Like, it still has its weaknesses, but also feels a lot more stable in other regards, less flimsy and "heavier" like they described it in the patch notes. I love it a lot. I didn't try vehicle combat yet, although I did get randomly attacked in the badlands by some NPCs once, which was very fun XD I almost had a heart-attack, but it did feel like something that could happen. Sadly didn't manage to get my revenge in time, but next time!!

I like the new radio stations, but didn't hear every song yet... but also, and I think some others already said that, they don't really add much new in terms of sound and genres. Nothing that isn't already there in some shape or form. But still nice to have something new to add to the rotation.

Leveldesign

And as I was driving around, I randomly stumbled right into Dogtown :DDD well, not quite but, damn, that was an impressive moment:

The faction of the guards was labelled as "Test" though xDD Close but, not quite... Figure that's also a little bug though.

Overall... I fucking love how they integrated it into Pacifica o.o It's insanely impressive, huge and rundown and maaaaaan.... I cannot wait to explore behind the walls!!

Also, random little thing... I feel like the clouds looked nicer? But that could be me not paying much attention/ rain being rare-ish in Night City.

Not Dogtown but North Oak, obviously. But... idk o.o The light shining through like that looked so fucking cool and realistic, but I really dont know if maybe this wasn't already part of the Pathtracing update and I just never noticed it like this before XD

And lastly... I discovered whose nooks they added to the Columbarium. Right in the feels.

Cannot wait to discover more little details as I go but URGH yeah. The tiny little Kerry convo already made it worth it for me XDD And Viktor <3 And the Autofixer shop is so cool! And aaahhh I cannot wait to see what's gonna come with PL :333

Hazbin Hotel has ruined Helluva Boss:

Honesty? Hazbin Hotel has ruined Helluva Boss for me.

I mean, it is hard to correspond both show when they are so different.

Helluva Boss cast are petty manchildren who mass murder for fun while Hazbins at least try to be good and the show never condumn any horrible act there, oh sure Alastor is a main character and villainous but the show never tried to justify him with some sob story and repeatedly reminded the watchers that Alastor is evil.

It's like if there was a Rick and Morty spin off but the main characters weren't dysfunctional manchildren who commit many downright immoral stuffs in an episodic basis and the show didn't surgercoat anything that is immoralistically disgusting and treat it humorously.

I mean heck, Adam and Lute are basically Blitz and Loona!

Blitz/Adam: massive pricks who think they are entitled to everything and are assholic because they think they are funny.

Loona/Lute: white haired callous bitches who hang with an asshole.

Blitz and Loona with IMP kill humans for money but honesty? Money is just an excuse because they find it entertaining and killed for pettiest of reasons(killing a fuckton of people over a parking spot anyone?) like Adam, Lute and the Exorcists using the potential of Hell's rebellion as an excuse to kill for fun and hell they even admitted that shamelessly in a song and they see Sinners/Humans as inferior nothing but cattles to slaughter.

Oh sure, Blitz and Loona have a sob origin story but excuse me if I'm not crying a river and it doesn't change the fact that they and IMP are no better than the Exorcists.

I don't know if this was intentional but let's be honest, IMP are mercs who kill humans for money and in a lot of case for even less(like again for a fucking parking spot!) and IMP if they were in Hazbin Hotel would have been villains.

[bestworstcase]

On the topic of Bitter Snow, how much of TTS/RTA (I still do not which one here is more corrrct, if either) do you need to have seen to read it? Since I know it's a rewrite and complete AU so removed from full dependence on the source text, but i also imagine you might not introduce characters since you'd assume readers know their canon selves, maybe? I've seen um. two episides of TTS/RTA but I do have an encyclopaedic knowledge of Cassandra specifically as a whole because I have a close friend who likes her basically as much as you like Zhan Tiri. So I've seen all of her songs and I know what her arc is

But anyway I was interested in reading since I've read a few random chapters before and thought it was neat, and I admire your lit skills in general. So can I just head into it or should I go watch the show and then come back?

it’s written to be readable canon-blind! there’s definitely some things that will hit different without foreknowledge of what happens in the show (mostly: foreshadowing that will seem more innocuous if you don’t know what happens in canon in, for example, the Winter Episode), but in terms of establishing the setting and introducing characters, i presume basic familiarity with the plot of the 2010 film and that’s it.

the timeline relative to canon also plays a role in this—tts s1 begins after a six month time skip so rapunzel has kind of ‘settled’ into her new life and most of the new cast is just There. benighted starts at midnight immediately following the events of the film which creates a lot of opportunities to introduce characters / establish stuff about the setting / remix canonical plot points in a way that is both accessible to non-tts fans without just rehashing stuff fans already know.

+ while i try to stay true to like the essence of all the canon characters and keep the broad strokes intact, because it’s a rewrite au i do just change a whole lot of things to fit the story i’m telling and wherever i diverge from canonical facts that obv has to be established for all readers. (example: canon treats saporian as a dead language akin to latin, and there’s a minor character who can read it for professional reasons; in bitter snow saporian is a living language, said minor character is fluent because he is saporian, and him being bilingual is more narratively relevant because he’s friends with cassandra whereas in canon he’s just a recurring townsperson. or a character who’s really only in s2 has a presence in benighted. or i took a character who appears in only three episodes as a bit antagonist and made her a main character lmfao. stuff like that.)

+ a fuckton of OCs (i probably like…triple the size of the cast?) and heavily heavily remixed and very expanded lore regarding all the magic stuff.

i think of rewrite au as being a fanfic genre akin to like writing a novel retelling a classic story like alice in wonderland, where you can assume basic familiarity with the premise but the goal is to write a story that embraces its inspiration but is independent from it. so that’s the creative approach :3c

[crotchety-old-emu]

Hi can I ask about your writing process regarding "our love is these days' piano"? How do you usually write, do you plan out everything in advance, or just use a general outline? How hard it is to write a story that takes place in the Regency? Do you do a lot of historical research? (I really enjoy looking up the little things you sprinkle in there, like Robin Adair) What is the best advice you wish you would have known when you started writing?

hi! thank you so much for this amazing message. it makes me feel like a *real writer*.

i usually follow the same process when writing a story. i always start with an outline, which i break up into scenes so i know exactly when certain events take place.

however, with olitdp my outline has changed a million times. i usually wait until a story is finished to post it, so it mostly ends up being pretty much what i originally planned it to be. with olitdp, i've had so much amazing feedback that has helped change the story substantially. it was only ever supposed to be 6 chapters. so in all honesty, if you like the story, it's as much your accomplishment as mine.

i have to admit, though, it is bloody hard writing regency. i'd say this is probably the most challenging story i've ever written, because - for some unfathomable reason - i wanted to stay as close to regency english as i could and it requires a fuckton of research. i'm not a historian, and certainly not a historical linguist. so most of the time i spend on this story, goes into looking up if certain words or expressions existed in the regency era. i have several tabs open with etymological dictionaries and thesauruses as i write, plus i consult pride and prejudice (my main inspiration) on project gutenberg constantly to see if jane austen used certain words.

i want to make it extremely clear, though, that i am not saying that i've never used any words that did not exist in regency times. i 100% did, but i try to avoid modern words that would stand out like a sore thumb as much as i can.

this is why it takes me a million years to complete a chapter, by the way. pretty much all the dialogue is written out for the entirety of the story (unless my amazing readers inspire me to change the outline yet again). but all the actions in between, choosing the right and period-appropriate words to describe them, takes hours and hours of research.

as for other research, i have gone down many a regency rabbit hole. i have spent days reading about the correct order in which to enter or exit a dining room, the layout of upper class regency houses, the way a regency household is structured, popular books and songs of the time, clothing items and fabrics and lately, regency dances (which will play a key part in the next chapter 👀).

if you're writing regency stories and want detailed information and video clips of regency dances, this website is the most brilliant resource. it has helped me out so much. highly recommend.

a few other great websites, that gave me a lot of insight and understanding of the how and why of the regency period are, in no particular order:

jane austen's world (just great in general)

regency history (especially the page i linked to, on how to behave at regency balls)

ellie dashwood (youtube channel that has truckloads of information on regency novels, a lot of them jane austen's)

if i had to give any advice - not that i am in any way an authority on writing recency pieces - it would be to not do it 😅. or at least, don't stick to the regency english. it has slowed down my writing so, so much and while i am quite pleased with all the research i've done, i have made it so much harder to tell the story i want to tell, and i am constantly worried i am veering off into purple prose territory with the words i do decide to use.

i have been working on a new penthony-story (mostly in my head, though) for a while and i'm definitely setting it in modern times because i just want to be able to write without second-guessing myself with every word.

should you decide to try and stay as true to regency language as you can, i would heartily recommend pulling up a regency novel (doesn't have to be austen) and checking it for certain expressions and vocabulary as you go along. i think that, far more than the etymology websites, has helped me decide on the wording of my story. plus, bonus re-reading of some of your favourite pieces of literature. (i do get lost in p&p every once in a while, and i LOVE it).

if you managed to get to the end of this ranty post, i commend you, dear reader. thank you so, so much. i cannot tell you guys enough how much your interest and interaction with me have inspired me and helped me shape the story.

and you, @cardeakelsey: what an amazing ask this was. thank you so much for taking the time to notice the tiny things i put in there and for appreciating them. it genuinely means the world.

[gracefireheart]

Just in a mood to recite some Ryan Parker moments I like for some reason back when I watched NP [which is only during NP 2.0].

I definitely won't sort them in order of when these moments happened, 'cause I have no clue when some of these moments happened in the hours upon hours of content.

While hunting after the man that killed George- a Lost MC biker- with Cat and Paddy, Cat got Ryan to think up a safe word in case Ryan somehow got found by this guy and were about to be in trouble, to which they decided the safe word would be ~princess~.

Another moment connected to the one above was how Ryan would be driving up and down the highway- 'cause the murderer was the Highway Man or something I don't quite remember- on his war Banshee. Some cops were undercover in a truck- trying to investigate this same murder- and were surprised when Ryan of all people are driving quickly up to them, making sure whoever drove the truck was okay as this Highway Man (I think) were also targetting truck drivers.

Another another moment connected to the two above was how- after finally the Lost got that Highway Man with the help of Dundee- Ryan wanted to torture the guy with a god damn lockpick. 'Cause listen, my man's usually a pacifist that rarely uses guns or weapons, but he will fuck you up if you fucked with those he considers family.

Ryan and OTT being trauma brothers friends after the Lost MC vs CKR war, considering they both got kidnapped and tortured by the opposite side in a war neither of them wanted to be a part of but had to be a part of. Also how- during the time the Lost needed mats [materials] for stuff and OTT had a fuckton of it- OTT would only sell his mats to Ryan (in the Lost).

Irwin Dundee helping Ryan get out of the Lost compound ('cause he was accidentally locked in and were starting to panic) after the Yellowjack meeting between the Lost MC and CKR- that happened riiight before that war started.

Rudi standing up for Ryan- during the job interview to become Matthew Payne's assistant- after months of either blaming Ryan for the war (between Lost MC and CKR) or just not wanting to be near him. It was just really nice and satisfying. That and how Ryan ended up knocking out his competitor after (I think) Matthew said the two should have a fight to see who gets the job.

While they were driving their motorcycles after the speeches in the funeral (to the Lost MC bikers that died during that war I keep mentioning), Reid asked Ryan if he wanted to say a speech too back there. Ryan answered how he did want to, but he didn't want to upset Rudi, so he opted against it. And then Reid just telling him how he should've done it anyways, even if it would've upset Rudi. Idk, just the husbandos being comforting to eachother is always so nice to watch.

Also, Ryan and Reid just driving together in the most ridicolous car the former has [station wagons, drift wagons, small but fast cars, etc.] to "train" new cops in driving pursuits, which will include fun bantering and singing to whatever 2000s pop song they got.

Ryan, Gazz and Lucy's "SHOW ME YOURS TINTS" line when the three decided to go and have some fun doing small crimes together to try not to worry too much about Reid being in the ICU.

Ryan just being drunk with his friends- Erin, Vivi and Luther- and singing pop songs after finding the dreaded E G G.

Ryan doing some racing while Rudi was sitting passenger, to which the latter would encourage the former to spin out the other racers or just make them crash (which Ryan ofc didn't do).

Ryan winning (or getting 2nd place, I can't quite remember) a race despite 1. All of his tires being popped by spikestrips, and 2. Some cop cars being behind him, trying to make his car stop (to no avail).

Watching most gangs just treat Ryan nicely 'cause they either like him as a person, like him as a business man/old lady of the Lost, or just don't want to piss off the businesses he's part of/the Lost and other gangs that like him.

Honestly, anytime Ryan's racing or trying to escape cops is fun as hell to watch.

Can't think of anything else atm, but I might add on more moments when I remember them 🚶

HEHEHEHEHEHE

Blaseball Characters part 3!

Lōotcrates: Makes magical equipment for players, makes clones of players, probably a god??? Definitely a lame-ass librarian/affectionate, technically a sentient pile of boxes but also technically the physical embodiment of the Vault where stored players and items go, their stadium canonically has Zero protection against the elements despite being inside of the supposed safety vault and also canonically has a mega fuckton of birds and salmon for some reason. Technically the narrator of blaseball, which gets them into fights with SIBR (Society of Internet Blaseball Research) on the classical historian issue of "accuracy vs. storytelling". Definitely fucked off to the Vault when the sun blew up. Most people hate them but I am very attached to this freak.

Chorby Short: Argentinian magical girl and herpetologist that can turn into a frog, they once batted for literal hours due to their blood type keeping them in by hitting foul balls (112 in total) against a crazy good pitcher. Got redacted after getting hit with a pitch from York Silk before re-emerging a season later. Went back and forth between the New York Millenials and the Boston Flowers for a while. got traded rapidly between four teams before landing in Breckenridge. Became a theatre kid on the Breckenridge Jazz Hands. Also, they're queer and have been on 9 active teams. The Garages have a song about them, and as of falling out of the black hole, they're on the Core Mechanics now! They could kill a god by themself, I think.

Nagomi McDaniel: technically the child of dead people (Japanese mom that grew up in Hawai'i and a Scottish dad) , she started off in Hades before going to Hawai'i, growing up there, becoming an ASL interpreter (she's selectively mute), and eventually getting married to the mother of another player named York Silk, whom Nagomi taught the basics of blaseball to. Nagomi played for Hades for one season before getting pulled to the Fridays. She was transferred to the Baltimore Crabs after a while, became carcinized (took on some aspects of a crab), and got her head chopped off and regenerated as a gift from a technically dead crab god (that all of Baltimore had a part in technically killing) named Deborah. Was the first player to steal every base. She had to deal with York getting trapped in a giant peanut shell and eventually getting controlled by a peanut god. She discovered her love for Japanese jazz on the Breckenridge Jazz Hands, and also took turns with Valentines Games hunting each other for sport. For Some Reason. Nagomi then got trapped in a giant peanut shell by the peanut god for being too popular for like three seasons and was yoinked back to Baltimore. Started siphoning blood from people for stat boosts pretty soon after being cracked out of the shell by birds. Was able to eat umpire flame instead of getting incinerated. She had to play against York while he was being controlled by the peanut god. Then her team ascended after 3 championship wins, and she was pulled back to the Fridays with no chance to say goodbye. All of her original teammates are either dead or on other teams at this point, including york, the kid she helped raise. She then got traded to the flowers, briefly got to reunite with her wife and York, and then started getting bit by sharks (called consumers) in an effort to protect other players. She got sent back to the Crabs AGAIN, got bit and lost the last of her soul, became redacted, and then exited the secret base (oh yeah blaseball has one of those) onto the Maimi Dalé's team. Then she got sent to the Mexico City Wild Wings before being pretty quickly Vaulted after that for being too popular or something. York got Vaulted soon after.

Note: there's a real explanation for why she and York got Vaulted, but it's complicated and has to do with star density, and if I get into that someone from SIBR is gonna explode on the spot from sheer stress.

the fact that there's a latine character tells me i was right to route for blaseball. also "the child of dead people" sounds metal af

[mandareeboo]

Meanwhile everyone he's banged has been like. Twelve out of ten. How does this motherfucker keep banging absolute bangers like this.

Verosika Mayday is a world-famous performer with legs for days and long soft-looking hair and badass wings. She's a succubus for people with that kind of kink AND she does sex for a living, so she's likely very adept with the bedroom stuff. I bet she's got a fuckton of songs in a shitty notebook from dollar general and she tries new lyrics out on whoever she's close with to see their reactions. Like she's got so much fucking charisma and status.

Stolas is. Fucking Stolas. Scrawny twink with luxurious feathers, powerful magic, AND he's rich. He looks gorgeous in the most pompous of outfits. He's a nerd who loves infodumping about space. He even has depression. Like. The whole fucking package, right there.

Optional third option being Fizzarolli, who Blitz is implied to have had feelings for. Cutest frog on the planet. BIG ass heart. Alex Brightman ass voice. The most famous clown in all of Hell, used to be working under Mammon himself. He's probably made a lot of money and even though his residuals were likely trash he's got some of his own savings.

Blitzo is like an ugly toad around these gorgeous ass hoes who wanted him, for some reason.

I do think it's really funny how Blitz has somehow banged two of the hottest characters of the show when he's a 6/10 at best. 3/10 if we're counting personality. Bald looking motherfucker with an underfed corpse of a body and a chronic obsession with making ponies kiss and licking shit he finds on the ground.

Hi, hello, I really need to get these ideas stuck in my head out, PLEASE IF YOU TAKE INSPIRATION OFF OF THESE PLEASE TAG ME IN IT I'D LOVE YOU FOR LIFE.

Batman Drabbles/Headcanon/Oneshot/Random Ideas Dump

Soon to come up with idea dumps for other fandoms too. Please, tag me, like I said above. I'd love to see if you've written something based on any of these. But you don't have to, I'll find it eventually as I scroll through tags of the same characters and fandoms over and over.

Most can be X Readers, Headcanons, or some other stuff. I'll label it if it could be offensive, like yandere works or possible smut, don't worry, but you can totally make any of these have smut/yandere if you so choose. Also, this idea dump thing is a work in progress, and I'll (hopefully) add more later on. And unless I specify a version of the character, it's all up to you!

Normal Prompts/Ideas

Whichever Scarecrow/Johnathan Crane has the Grandma issues, I need a lil thing of some sweet old lady thinking that he's her grandson. Even though he's like, in full scarecrow gear. And this little lady keeps saying he should eat more, cause he's looking thin, or that he's such a ladies man, giggling to herself. He doesn't have the balls to tell her that he's not her grandson...Or that he's a villain. But eventually, he spills the beans that he's not actually her grandson, and that his real granny was a jerk (still won't say that he's the Scarecrow however). And she's just like "I'll be your new grandma, don't you worry sweetie, now come inside, and tell me more about yourself." And this man Is on the verge of tears. After, he now 100% calls her grandma, and will not take shit from anyone about it. Calls often, and always leaves her house with a full stomach and a smile on his face.

Okay, but imagine being someone watching over the Riddler as his probation officer, essentially making sure he doesn't go back to his evil ways, as well as help him rebuild his life. Edward, however doesn't. And slowly, but surely, the two start to bond. Could be platonic or romantic.

Batman dealing with an assassin for hire, not knowing who they are or who hired them. And once he defeats them, he has to hide the look of horror on his face as he takes off their mask and it reveals the identity of his dearest friend. It only dawns on him the next day he hears their name on the news, only confirming that his worst dream has become a reality. So he visits you, not as Batman, but as Bruce. He sees your reasoning, and he can only hope you get better. He doesn't want to have to fight you once more.

Any Villain hunting a security guard down during an Arkham breakout, for whatever reason of your choice. But luckily, another villain, who they have grown close to, comes and saves the day. The only thing they ask for in return, for a place to lay low...AKA, their apartment. Could be platonic or romantic.

A heartbreaker breaks the heart of whichever villain you choose, and a local bartender (who really doesn't care that their main clientele are villains), tries to ease their woes with some comforting words and booze. Could be platonic or romantic.

BTAS Riddler during his rehabilitation meeting an interviewer, of whom he finds their questions unique and refreshing compared to the others. Luckily he sees them at the celebration between Wacko Toys™ and The Riddler, interviewing a few guests. Riddler tells them to relax and let loose a little, and to get off the job and dance with him. Luckily, they're more than happy to oblige.

Song Inspired prompts/Ideas

Once again, if you like the song/idea but not the character, you can totally change it, it's your story not mine. And if you think a song doesn't match the prompt, then I literally don't care, cause I'm not seeing you write a fuckton of Batman shit. /j (I do actually care, just please don't say anything)

Arkham Riddler - Best Friends, right? (Amy Winehouse)

Riddler and the character have a rocky relationship/friendship. Things never get physical, obviously, it's normally quips at the others intelligence or deep rooted insults. But you slowly start to realize it's his way of keeping you out, he's afraid to trust you. To let you in. It's up to you how the story goes. Could be platonic or romantic.

Any Villain - Hold Up (Beyoncé)

Any villain helping a friend (or crush, depending on the kind of story you want it to be), beat up an ex of theirs. Imagine them ranting to them about how bad they were to them, and they're just like "Fuck them! We should jump them!" And they're just like "FUCK YEAH." Could be platonic or romantic.

Capullo Riddler - Year Zero (Ghost)

If you read the comic Zero Year, you'll know that he calls his reign on Gotham city "Year Zero", so whenever I hear the song I think about him promising how great his reign will be to his partner in crime, promising them how unstoppable they'll be, just him and them on the top of the world. Could be platonic or romantic.

Riddler - Me and Your Mama (Childish Gambino)

I don't know, whenever I hear this song I just feel like it's repressed feelings coming out. So I thought of Riddler and whomever getting high with each other, having a good time, then he started to reveal his feelings for them. Honestly, you can totally switch Riddler out for someone else, it's up to you.

TW/Not for everyone

Including the song fics, and normal Prompts.

Prompts

(TW: YANDERE) Whichever villains you desire all talk about their obsessions, how they make them feel ect, but as each person talks about their obsessions, they slowly start to realize they are all obsessed over the same person. Whether they team up or not is up to you, but there is definitely tension in the room when they all figure it out. And the first person to figure it out is now looking among the group as they speak about the same person in shock, rage, and more or less, well, dying on the inside. UGH THE DRAMA!

(TW: POSSIBLE/IMPLIED SMUT) This was originally made to be a headcanon thing, but it could be anything of your choice! (within reason, cause not all of them would do this) any villain as a "paypig" (also known as someone who likes someone dominating them financially, like taking their money. While some just give them the money not expecting anything and simply find that hot, others can want to be degraded or publicly humiliated.) I was thinking it could mostly be any version of the Riddler (Looking at you BTAS and Paul Dano Riddler fans) or the Penguin, but feel free to choose any villain. Whether they leave it for them in their apartment or send it to them online, depending on when the series takes place, is all up to you. Go ham with it.

(TW: YANDERE) Dealing with Two-face as a new employee at the asylum, specializing in anger management, exclusively for him, funded by Bruce Wayne. And while to them it seems to not be working at all, to Harvey it's a different story. You've caught their eye, and they're gonna hunt you till the ends of the earth, whether you want them to or not. (And then I added a quote because I thought it up just now, pretty swag if you ask me)

"This wasn't chance this time, no, it was fate. You came to the asylum just to help little old us, and then you start to grow on us. And I know we started to grow on you. This was more than luck, no, it was destiny, my love. We belong together."

(TW: THIS COULD BE CONSIDERED YANDERE, IDK THOUGH) Riddler keeping his eye on a little private detective, impressed that they were smarter than the average Gothamite. Soon, before he can give them a real challenge, he finds out they're leaving town, never to return. He doesn't understand, you'd never be out of a job in a city like this! That was until he heard that a certain villain tried to nab them, to get rid of the only interesting thing in this god-forsaken place. No, this will not STAND! Now, he's going to give the little detective a letter, if they're as smart as he hopes, then they'll know where to meet him. He hopes to make you... Reconsider your plans on going. Could be platonic or romantic.

(TW: YANDERE, ATTEMPTED SUICIDE) This was made to be Headcanons, but do what you will with it. Any villain/hero finds their kidnapped 'partner' with a gun, threatening to kill themselves if they don't get out, or at the very least be able to go outside more. The character of your choice will have to try and coax them out of it, how they do it and how it ends is entirely up to you.

(TW: HOLY FUCK, SMUT) Okay, here me out, I'd love some mutual masterbation between Young Justice and his partner....Then again, it's more that he jacks off and says out loud what he's thinking about, and they just listen with great interest about how much he wants to please them, to hear their breath quiver. His whimpers of excitement when you get closer to him are heavenly. Yeah, just a thought.

(TW: YANDERE) Look, I love Scarecrow as much as the next. But it's honestly weird how much of his yandere stuff is that he's fallen for an ex-student of his. I mean, yeah they're consenting adults, but geez, kinda weird. To me, a more viable way for a teacher scarecrow to have a person of interest is another teacher, or if you like it, a student-teacher. Think about it, for a normal teacher, he sees that they are more favored than him by students, so he cares to ask how to make his class more engaging. Romantic tension ensues, but nothing becomes of it because they want to "be professional", too bad he's anything but. And for a student-teacher, It'd be that they're learning how to be a responsible teacher, and have great interest in the subject of fear, although that is not what they will be teaching. Scarecrow considers them to be his assistant, and decides to get to know them more. Too bad he's gotten a bit attached. Either way, both of these ideas end the same way in my head, the ex-teacher, Jonathan Crane, revealing his new identity, the Scarecrow, to the public. And he's made sure his lovely little teacher has front row seats~ (P.S. Please don't attack anyone who has written scarecrow x student stuff, obviously they are both adults, and have the right to say no. This is not shade to them. I just wanted another option for those who feel uncomfortable with that, but like teacher Scarecrow. Thank you ^^)

Song Inspired

Scarecrow - Tonight you Belong to Me (Patience & Prudence)

(TW: YANDERE) I have two ideas for this. 1) he chases a victim of his down, but they don't know how much he knows about them. Or 2) Dancing with a kidnapped victim significant other of his to this song, humming the words of the song in their ear, trying to be romantic and ease their nerves, but it doesn't help at all.

Any Villain(s)- Back to Black (Amy Winehouse)

(TW: DEATH) The villain(s) of your choice go to a good friend's funeral, saddened by their recent departure, and decide to attend undercover. Sadly, not many arrive at the funeral, and even worse, they are asked to say a few kind words for the departed. Now it's just got a bit more complicated than just grieving, do they decide a lie about how they knew them, bend the truth? It's all up to you. Meant to be platonic, but could be romantic repressed feelings.

Anyone - This Year (The Mountain Goats)

(TW: IMPLIED DEATH/BREAKUP) Any person of your choice dealing with the first year without their significant other, made to be headcanons, but honestly you do you.

LGBTQ+ Themes in Greek Mythology

I'm no Greek Mythology expert i don't have any professional qualifications whatsoever(tho when i go to college imma minor in classics with a bio major but you don't care sorry :'(

i'm just a nerd who spends way too much time researching/reading a million books(calling all PJO fans/riordanverse in general i'm a fan too)on greek mythology(btw any of you read song of achilles, that shit broke my heart but i can't help it i just love greek mythology adaptations so fucking much)

these aren't in order i don't have a particular timeline but i think it's important to discuss lgbtq+ themes in greek mythology in SOME CAPACITY especially with something called ERASURE I SAID GREECE WAS GAY YALL but the greeks were more sexually fluid so they don't really have labels for this the same way we do and the way we defined their sexuality is not how we define it but this is most likely how it would've translated in the modern world and it's still important because seeing lgbtq+ figures in ancient cultures proves their existence and that we're here and queer, I can't do everyone here so i might do a part 2 if yall want

*Zeus did have like maybe 1 or 2 male lovers, the most notable ganymede but like Zeus is an asshole he's not cool enough to be queer so no i'm not going in depth about him AT ALL

1. Apollo

we all know Apollo, god of: music, poetry, healing, sun/light, archery, prophecy

but also he's THE bisexual icon(there are other gods like Hermes and Dionysus notable for male lovers I said Hermes was pan in like he was literally the god pan at one point and he's pansexual) but Apollo has the most male lovers out of any god and he does have a fuckton of female lovers(not nearly as many as zeus tho, no one gonna surpass him) Apollo is also depicted to be extremely hot no pun intended but also having a rather feminine appearance

some of his famous same sex lovers include:

Hyacinthus(this one my fav)- so fucking tragic got turned into the hyacinth plant

Admetus- no tragic end for Admetus unfortunately Admetus is a...straight-ie(I usually only call the cringe straights straighties but i'm just in pain in how Apollo hopelessly pines over him)

There's others but they're not as notable so imma speedrun but if you want me to talk more about them in depth and other lgbtq+ themes in greek mythology ask for a part 2

2. Hermaphroditus

This god was the son of Hermes and Aphrodite(please don't ask how THAT happened it just did)

Hermaphroditus is intersex, he's the god of intersex people, a symbol of androgyny and is the reason why intersex animals like snails(they have male & female reproductive parts) are called "Hermaphrodites"

The story is Hermaphroditus was just chilling in a body of water when the nymph Salmacis jumped on top of him while he was chilling and intended to rape him and she called on the gods to make it so that she and Hermaphroditus would be together forever so the gods merged them together into a partly female and male individual

3. Chaos

if any of yall read hesiod's theogony or...just hear stuff elsewhere, you may have heard of this creation myth where in the beginning there was a primordial kind of emptiness or void which was Chaos and this is mostly a headcanon but i legit cannot remember if they refer to Chaos gender AT ALL sooooo

NON-BINARY NON-BINARY NON-BINARY

4. Sipriotes

There are multiple stories of Gods changing mortals gender maybe as divine punishment, to help disguise them/protect them or whatever so the mortals may go mtf or ftm so TRANGENDER

Sipriotes isn't the most notable or even the most important in fact she only gets like a 1 line mention in some author's work but she's important to me

because she has some agency in this story. basically i think what happened is that she(he at the time) saw Artemis bathing(like actaeon but the reason that Artemis gets mad at her isn't clear since this myth is so obscure and it's not certain if the bathing is even the "correct version" or correct as can be with greek myth) so Artemis in retribution gave Sipriotes an ultimatum, she could either be given a woman body and join Artemis's hunters or worse so Sipriotes chose the hunters and the woman bod

5. Iphis and Ianthe

There are 2 people in this one cause 1. this is much longer than i anticipated and i don't think people wanna read that much 2. these people aren't important enough to have their own and their stories are so intertwined that individual sections would be too short and basically the same

Iphis was raised as a dude despite being a woman so one day when Iphis gets married they are offered to a woman named Ianthe. Iphis is sad because Iphis fell in love with Ianthe(mutual) but Iphis knows they can't be together as 2 women so Iphis prays to the gods for a solution to be able to marry Ianthe so the gods like turn Iphis into a dude

so this could be a trans guy with a bi?(if ianthe knew iphis was a woman) woman or technically this could be seen as wlw or i should say sapphic cause this greek i tend to lean toward this being trans guy but i won't argue with your interpretation unless you're being transphobic

6. Callisto

Now greece was very misogynistic and had a high emphasis on manly men. that's why in greek mythology there were so many mlm couples but you can't find shit on wlw there are technically only 2, one of them being the previous one and this one...it's technically not wlw it's awful it's evil but it's all we got

Callisto was a hunter of Artemis who might've been a queer woman. So basically Artemis's hunters say no to the company of men and swear off romance so none of the gods can touch them. But one day Zeus was like "yo Callisto do be looking kinda hot tho" and tried to seduce her even tho Callisto is off limits, he did this by shapeshifting into the Artemis and then called Callisto into a private spot where he raped her and got her pregnant. unfortunately since Callisto is no longer a virgin she had to leave the hunters and i think she got turned into a bear by usually Hera but sometimes Artemis too tired to double check

7. Artemis, Athena, Hestia

Now these lovely ladies are famous for being the only 3 beings Aphrodite(goddess of love) has no power over as they are virgin goddesses who swear to be maidens forever. I tend to see them on the Aroace spectrum.

Artemis was someone who said no to romance and to forever forswear the company of men that could technically be interpreted a few different ways(aka did she like girls? lesbian ace maybe?) I tend to lean toward no she appears more aroace as she had nada in the relationships department(no she never loved orion i'm tired of answering that question)

Athena is pretty specifically aroace as its very much explicit that she has no time for romance and prefers to spend her time on battle strategy and crafts. She is called Athena Parthenos* virgin athena for a reason. I heard her childhood best friend pallas was her woman lover from a random internet person but i can't find any sources for this so take that with a grain of salt but it could be that sources are hard to come by for ancient civilizations idk so she could be biromantic ace maybe????

Hestia is def aroace but also we have very little sources of any kind about her. only about her worship no myths. which is sad as fuck because she's a dope goddess i wish there was more about her

*I just realized i forgot to do achilles and patroclus but i was just so tired, i'll do them in the part 2

[leseigneurdufeu]

Dude I listened to that song and I love it. I really appreciate songs written from the perspective of or about a whole country just... #the state of this world am I right?? (Also Hetalia fan here but shhh)

I understood almost everything but just to be sure that I didn't miss anything from the message, can you post the translation please?

PS you also inspired me to post something

ok so first thing (which honestly is like... normal to be confused if you're not a native speaker) is that the song is not from the perspective of a whole country because it's not La France (the country) but Le France (a ship named after the country).

Basically it was the biggest ship ever build for the 12 years it was in activity. It was the pride of the french fleet (not war fleet, I think it was for passenger transit or something), the apple of their eyes etc. It was a whole symbol.

Giscard d'Estaing, french president, had among his campagin promises that he would keep Le France in good state and in activity. As soon as he became president (well maybe not as soon but you get it) he fucking sold it to a saudian business man who sold it to a norwegian armator (who renamed it the Norway) and then she (the ship) ended up being sold to some ironmonger or whatever (years later, like deacdes later, which was further proof that the France could have kept sailing for decades!)

So, big scandal, big outrage.

The Right Wing goes berserk because they're selling a national symbol, the Left Wing goes berserk because I'm pretty sure there was also something like The France being sold meant a fuckton of jobs disappearing. It probably goes without saying but at the time, to piss off the right and left wings at the same time, for the same reason was kind of a feat.

So anyway here's the text, (the translation), and [explanations of context or explanations of translation].

Quand je pense à  la vieille anglaise Qu'on appelait le "Queen Mary", Echouée si loin de ses falaises Sur un quai de Californie,

(When I think of the old english lady

Who they called the "Queen Mary" [also a big ship from that time, but english]

Crashed [or shipwrecked, the idea is that it's still above water but not sailing anymore] so far from her cliffs,

In the docks of California...)

Quand je pense à  la vieille anglaise, J'envie les épaves englouties, Longs courriers qui cherchaient un rêve Et n'ont pas revu leur pays.

(When I think of the old english lady,

I envy the sunken wreckages,

Long-distance ships that chased after[or looked after] a dream,

And never saw their countries again)

Ne m'appelez plus jamais "France". La France elle m'a laissé tomber. Ne m'appelez plus jamais "France". C'est ma dernière volonté.

(Don't ever call me France again

France [the country this time] has let me down.

Don't ever call me France again,

It's my last wish [dernière volonté -> idiom corresponding to dying wish too])

J'étais un bateau gigantesque

Capable de croiser mille ans. J'étais un géant, j'étais presque Presqu'aussi fort que l'océan.

(I was a gigantic ship,

Able to sail a thousand years,

I was a giant, I was almost,

Almost as strong as the Ocean)

J'étais un bateau gigantesque. J'emportais des milliers d'amants. J'étais la France. Qu'est-ce qu'il en reste ? Un corps-mort pour des cormorans.

(I was a gigantic ship,

I was sending thousands of lovers.

I was France [the country], what's left of it?

A dead body for cormorants [cormorants and dead body sound almost exactly the same in french: cor(ps are mute) mor(ts are mute) and cormor(ants)])

Ne m'appelez plus jamais "France ". La France elle m'a laissé tomber. Ne m'appelez plus jamais "France". C'est ma dernière volonté.

(Don't ever call me France again,

France [the country this time] has let me down.

Don't ever call me France again,

It's my last wish)

Quand je pense à  la vieille anglaise Qu'on appelait le "Queen Mary", Je ne voudrais pas finir comme elle Sur un quai de Californie.

(When I think of the old english lady,

Who they called the "Queen Mary",

I wouldn't want to end like her,

On a dock in California)

Que le plus grand navire de guerre Ait le courage de me couler, Le cul tourné à  Saint-Nazaire, Pays breton où je suis né.

(May the biggest warship ever

Have the bravery to sink me,

My back [literally my ass but let's keep it correct] turned on Saint-Nazaire,

Breton country where I was born! [Saint-Nazaire, biggest naval pier of France at the time, about to close, costing those jobs I was talking about earlier, in Bretagne (one of the western areas of France) is the place where the France (ship) was build]

Ne m'appelez plus jamais "France". La France elle m'a laissé tomber. Ne m'appelez plus jamais "France". C'est ma dernière volonté.

(Don't ever call me France again,

France has let me down.

Don't ever call me France again,

It's my last wish)

.

Anyway I don't know what else to say but don't hesitate to ask more questions.

O k a y sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I am weak for musicals with good music, so weak, and there's a musical called Jesus Christ Superstar which has so fUCKING good music and a fuckton of different version.

The Swedish production from 2014 is on youtube with and without subtitles which I just watched and omygod. OMYGOD. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I have been going insane over it like with any hyperfixation, but if you add the fact that I am so gay, so very very gay (i am somewhere on the aroacespec, no idea where, but fictional characters and actors for some reason are the exception to the rule) , especially for androgynus men with long hair and soft eyes, then this one kinda makes me d i e.

This version of the musical features a love triangle between Mary Magdalene, Judas and Jesus. Jesus is the most bisexual looking creature to ever be created, Mary wears a leather jacket and Judas wears a mesh shirt. Keep this, and the fact that I am so so gay, in mind while I keep explaining.

It opens with the most banger song in the entire world "Heaven on their minds" but in swedish (i can understand swedish, i cant speak it, but i roughly understand what they're saying. Subtitles my beloved.), sung by blond long haired Judas with a man bun (and a mesh shirt, i swear to the gods, he is wearing a mesh shirt i am going insane).

Then it continues to be awesome, chilling music, banger lines, awesome acting overall stuff that makes me spin around like a drunk helicopter. The songs, omygod the songs, are so awesome and they are so wonderful and i love them and i love them. It also has that hint of christianity, but not in the worshipping way and more in the poetic way, which makes my exmo heart shine and sing and dance and spin back and forth like a swing (unrelated, I love swings, swings are so awesome omygod).

AND ITS GONNA SHOW IN NORWAY AND IM GOING TO SEE IT AND IM DYING BECAUSE ITS SO FUCKINGS AWESOME AND THE SOUNDTRACK AAND IM GOING TO DIE ITS ALL SO WONDEFFUL AND DYING BECAUSE ITS LIVING IN MY HEAD AND IM PAYING MY SANITY AS RENT

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWQWQAAWKLWNDMENDNDDMNDNEKSKWKWNNENFKEKDNFLLDNDNDLDNMWNWLENRLNRLRNRK

I am actively being killed by a bible fanfic musical

what?!?

[arithedingas]

Request - how about Leto Otel for the character post? :)

send me a character and i’ll list:

favorite thing about them: Honestly his chill vibes. Like even when he's clearly flustered or happy or upset he just... never really raises his voice or anything. he's just chill like that. though I'd love to see a scene where he does raise his voice that would be kinda hot lol

least favorite thing about them: not so much a problem with him per se, but I feel like it's always been a bit ambiguous in the show whether Leto has feelings for DeeDee or not. Like, after watching the whole show I came to the conclusion that he probably does, but I remember when I first started watching I was kinda confused. I think the show would've benefited by having Leto at least confirm it at some point, especially since the ambiguity can make DeeDee's actions regarding him seem... a bit more iffy?

favorite line: Can't find the exact quote but basically when he said his first kiss was as terrifying as he thought it would be asdidhssdjdskal

brOTP: I like the idea of Ace seeing Leto as a big brother in some ways, and that he likes to make sure he isn't left out of any activities since he knows Leto has trouble socializing

OTP: Deeto of course!

nOTP: Can't really think of any tbh

random headcanon: he's the youngest of a fuckton of siblings (haven't thought of a concrete amount, just that you'd see the number and go "how is that humanly possible???"). As a result he was a bit of a latchkey kid and didn't get a lot of attention when he was younger. It's one of the reasons he sucks at socializing. Also, despite the large number of siblings, he knows everything about all of them somehow (name, DOB, favorite things, etc).

unpopular opinion: I can't really think of anything since this fandom isn't really big enough for there to even be any popular opinions lol

song i associate with them: I Can't Handle Change by Roar

favorite picture of them:

he's so determined i love it. bitch getting ready to fucking COOK
