!📺✨Vox✨📺!

Oh my how this man would be entranced by your small tunes

he’s always found comfort in your voice, even when you were just chattering. But now it’s different, the first time a soft melody escaped your lips, let me tell you, he was hooked ever since then.

He found comfort in your soft hum’s, it was such a calming thing, it was a big difference from the hustle and bustle of the over populated hell. A good one at that, it was an escape for him ♥(⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝)♥

He’ll always go silent when you’re humming, and you’ll never notice it!. He’ll listen to the soft hum with full attention. Of course he’ll always be careful so you don’t catch on!

he doesn't understand why, but he love’s being discreet when listening to you. Maybe it’s the wya you feel relaxed or let the notes flow more freely from you mouth. He’s not quite sure but he just knows he dose it quite often!

sooner or later though he’ll make it be known that he’s been listening to you. Most likely in a teasing way! Loves seeing you get flustered.

soon he may even join you in your little hums if he knows the melody of the song your humming! It’s always such a love filled moment. Although he maybe, a bit cocky and standoffish here on there he’s always so tender in moments like these. You get to see his soft side in rare and soft moments like these.

Although that doesn’t mean the teasing would stop! He loves teasingly calling you his singing bird, or his Canary. But he also means it in adoring way as well!

Your little songs and voice get stuck in his Tv head constantly, it’s always on loop. He doesn’t Hate it, not at all! But sometimes when you are apart it dose make him miss you.

Whenever he’s about to have a melt down/ lose his absolute shit (Aka he fought alastor once again ( ｰ`дｰ´ ) ) he’ll let his mind put your hums on loop its very much a coping method!, I would say it helps him a good chunk of the time but you might already know the shortness of his temper at times.

if you guys are possible in his living space and in private. he’s all over you, his love for you is watered down in public, but I’m privacy he’s be asking you too hum for him so he could relax! He’d love just to lay down for awhile and only hear you. Just you, no screaming and cussing from the other Two V’s, and no interruptions. As much as he loves building his power and fame, sometimes he needs this to recollect and can get back to working on whatever he was doing with a much more eased mind.(´∀｀)♡

Now! As for dancing and such, he loves watching you glide across the floor with such ease. Whatever dancing or way you move he’ll always find some elegance in it. And as much as he’s into new interventions, and the new “day and age”, he does love to indulge in this old slow dance’s. Look! Hear me out! He’s not old timey, more like appreciates the closeness, and how nice it is to just hold you and slowly dance around the living room, or his office once everyone is out of course!

even if you think no one’s watching he probably is, and as much as he loves to have a certain image of himself to show to the public at all times. He can’t help but put it away when he’s just focusing on you when you guys are alone. He’ll stare at you for how ever long just doting on you in his mind.

sometimes he spaces out cause all he can think of is just you, only you, and trust me the teasing he reserves form Val and Vel is outta this world.

they will never let him live down the time he buffered and glitched because his systems and inner fans were over heating just thinking about you.

if he is every away for business purposes, when he’s sure he’s completely alone, he’ll pull up his phone and dial you up so you can calm him down with your voice. This will NEVER be admitted form him, cause only the lord knows how Val and Vel would absolutely use this against him in a teasingly bullying way. Yea he’ll do everything just so they could shut up. (˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵)💧

I feel as though even if he’s proud to be with someone with such an amazing voice like you he’d hate to share it. He loves stomping and showing off to other people, but something like this he just wants to himself, he knows it’s selfish, But this is Vox were talking about, he wouldn’t care.

late nights always end up with him or you on one of each others chest as you hum him to sleep. He finds it comforting to have you near and to know you’re next to him!.

and here and there he’d let you sit on his lap or just next to him as he works. You don’t have to hum, but if you do lord knows it helps the man so much he just doesn’t understand, sometimes he thinks it’s genuinely some type of magic because of the way you make him feel so easily calm.

and yes he dose have a recording of your singing but you won’t see it reach the light of hell cause he keeps it for his own use. A bit creepy? Yes!, but somewhat endearing! Hehe..(｡•́‿•̀｡)💧

his love for you is very much unmatched, and as ironic as it is you always seem to make him lose his breath around you. He doesn’t see you as a weakness but in the same vain is terrified at the possibility of losing you, his only comfort. Sometimes he stresses himself out so bad at the thought of people using you against him or you leaving him, he has problems and most of those he’s not willing to admit he has. Even if you’re powerful, and can take care of yourself he still always finds a way to worry sometimes and at times like that you just have to remind him you’re there. Verbally or physically, but you can take a guess at the best way to sooth him

if your comfortable with it!, he’d wouldn’t even put music on when dancing just the two of you humming.

even if your not he still find you graceful call it heart shaped glasses but he’ll always find a way to complement you on the littlest of things.

he could be at a business deal with the nest biggest singer in hell and still he wouldn’t think they could top you in billions of years.

Again revisiting my point where I said he wouldn’t want to share your voice, he most definitely would snap if anyone just barged in his office (cough, Val cough, Velevet, cough!, sorry must be sick or something! ( ๑‾̀ ◡ ‾́)..) He’d kick them out immediately if it wasn’t something of importance (or what he seems to be important)

velvet always teases him by saying he’s up in the clouds ever since he’s met you which… yea you cant defend him there…

may the angels have mercy on your vocal cords cause as you can see you gonna be humming to him most of the time you are alone! ♫꒰ ･‿･๑꒱

Overall! please just hum softly with him and dance with this man! It’s his favorite bonding time. He’d give up everything to hear your voice for the rest of eternity. He doesn’t always show it cause of his status but trust me when I say he’s always and constantly thinking and loving you. And the more you dance softly together and spend nights humming together the more that grows! He loves you to no end. ˉ̞̭(′͈∨‵͈♡)˄̻ ̊…

You're Mine, Silly! (Yandere!Jungkook x F!Reader) PART 1

Summary: You've only met him once at a fan meet. You were excited and happy since he was your bias. Thats how you saw him. However, Jungkook saw things differently.

warnings: none

PART 1

There he was, sitting down right in front of you. A part of you still couldn't believe that he was literally a foot away, smiling at you. The sparkle in his eyes bright and shiny, just like his smile.

You swore everything inside you melted away and no thought was left except for Jungkook.

"Hey there!" he waves, grabbing your hand in his, "What's your name beautiful?" he asks, rubbing your palm with his thumb.

It took everything in you not to pass out right in front of you so you mustered up the courage to speak. "Hi!! My name is Y/N! I'm so excited to finally meet you!" you smile brightly, jumping up and down.

"Excited you say?" he smirks, leaning closer, his cologne spreading up toward you, giving you a whiff of his scent. "What makes me so exciting to you?" he questions.

You pretend to think on it real hard when in reality it was so fucking obvious why. "Hmmmm well, I can't deny that you are my bias. You're such a talented singer, song writer, are funny, and so adorable."

His eyes softened as you rambled about things you like about him. With every word you said and the way you seemed so passionate about how you feel made him feel a certain way.

When you realized you were rambling, you felt your face become hot and you removed your hand from his hold. Embarrassment filled you as you scratched the back of your neck, "I'm sorry," you apologize, "I didn't mean to ramble off your ear." you laugh.

Your laugh was cute, something he would love to hear often.

"No, don't apologize." he says and reached over to, once again, hold your hand in his. "Please, don't feel embarrassed. It was cute."

With his free hand, he reached over and grabbed your album to sign. Jungkook did not want to let go of your soft hand. It felt nice in his, like it belonged there.

When you saw him sign it with a message to your name, you opened your mouth. "Can you also put Elijah?" you ask.

he quirked his eyebrow up, confused at your request but nevertheless wrote down the name, "Is he your brother?" Jungkook asked.

You shake your head, "He's my boyfriend! He was the one who bought my ticket actually!" you smiled, "He really wanted to come today, but there was an emergency at work."

Jungkook felt himself freeze. You have a boyfriend? What?

It didn't make any sense. How could you ramble on about how perfect Jungkook is and how adorable he is, only to now say you're in a relationship?

"Oh really?" he mumbled under his breath, trying to contain his cool. "You didn't mention him before."

"it slipped my mind because I was so excited to meet you guys. You and Jimin are his biases."

He didn't know how to feel. Certainly you were flirting with him, there was no doubt, but now you're saying you're with someone. It just didn't make any sense.

"I wish he could've made it." Jungkook says, knowing damn well he didn't mean it.

The bell rung, signaling that it was time to rotate. He didn't want you to go and hated how he only had five minutes to talk to you.

You picked up your album to move on, hoping he would let go of your other hand, but he didn't. In fact, it was as if he held it tighter. You tried releasing your hand, but it was firmly held in his.

Was this by mistake?

Looking to your right, you saw the others behind grow impatient as they looked your way. A lot of the other fans caught glimpse of Jungkook still holding your hand and looking at you with full eyes.

He wasn't letting go and it made you scared because you didn't want to get yelled at by staff and even get kicked out.

In the corner of your eye, you saw a staff make their way toward you and you tried your best to get your hand out, but to no avail. However, there was a savior that stepped in.

Jin placed his hand on Jungkook's shoulder, gaining the youngest's attention. "Uhm, are you okay, Jungkook?" he asked, looking between you both. "The bell rang almost a minute ago, let go of the poor ladies hand."

It took everything in Jungkook to not yell at his hyung, but he obeyed his orders.

"I'm sorry Y/N!" he said, eyes pleading with you, "I got lost in thought and didn't mean for this to happen!"

He was loud and everyone was looking, it made you feel hot with embarrassment, but seeing how he is right now made you feel bad for some reason. As if it was your fault.

"it's ok!" you say, moving in front of Jin, "No need to apologize."

After that, everything felt quick for you. Seeing other members made you happy and it was something you would never forget, especially with Jungkook. He didn't mean to hold your hand that long, so you didn't really think much of it. Besides, you mentioned your boyfriend and your love for Elijah will triumph over Jungkook any day.

However, it was the next day that made things go downhill. You woke up to your phone going off every second. it scared you, made you think a relative died and that your siblings or parents were trying to get ahold of you.

But when you opened your sister's messages, your eyes popped out.

sister: Go check Twitter right now!!

sister: Y/N, WAKE UP!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT!!

sister: if u dont wake up rn ill fucking drive over to your apartment and nuke your door down

You message her quickly, telling her that you're checking right now. Opening the app, it was the first thing that popped up.

WHO IS THE GIRL THAT CAPTURED JK'S HEART?

Was the first headline you saw. You prayed hard and deep that it was something totally different and did not involve you at all.

You clicked on the tweet and your heart dropped. It was clearly a picture of you at the fan meet. it was the moment when Jungkook held onto your hand tightly and didn't let go. Even now you can clearly see the soft look in his face as he stared at you.

How stupid were you for not realizing that fans could take things the wrong way and make it to what it really isn't!

You read the tweet and it made your blood boil.

I was at BTS' fan meet last night and what I saw made me gasp! When the bell rung for the fans to move onto the next member, there was a moment that made everyone shocked. Jungkook wouldn't let go of this girls hand! I don't know her name or who she is, but when I zoomed in, you can see the look in his eyes that he had for her! It was adorable and sweet! The way he held her hand made me swoon!

#BTS #whoIsTheGirl #Jungkook

You scrolled through other tweets, some of them confused, others shocked, a few of them were hate, but a lot of them were excited. It pissed you off. This wasn't Wattpad, this only should happen in cringe stories. You were dating the love of your life and this could seriously ruin things.

Going to Elijah's contact, you tried calling him twice, but he didn't pick up. You texted him asking if he was ok, but he just read your message.

Everything was going downhill so you grabbed your stuff and headed over to your boyfriends apartment.

Upon arriving, you knocked several times for him to answer because there was no way in hell you were leaving without explaining things. When he opened the door, you invited yourself in without asking.

"What are you doing?" he asks, closing and locking the door behind him, "whats wrong?"

You tilted your head, confused by his actions. Is he this mad that he looks so calm?

"I'm here to talk about whats happening on twitter and want to give you my side." you say.

His eyebrows knit together in confusion. "Something on twitter? Care to elaborate?"

"Why are you acting confused? Aren't you angry? I tried texting and calling but you ignored them."

He laughed and walked up to you, giving your forehead and kiss, "I am sorry, honey. I was on the phone with my sister and was trying to calm her down from her first heartbreak. When I saw your text, my phone died."

Elijah then walked to the counter and showed his phone with the screen showing the black background and white apple icon, signifying that it was just turning on from it being dead.

You felt the worry ease just a little as you finally calmed down. "oh thank god." you whisper, placing your hand over your chest. "You scared me so much."

he chuckles and stands in front of you, "Whats happening though? Tell me."

So you told him everything, about how Jungkook kept holding your hand, fans took pictures, thought of something else, and now you're trending on Twitter. You showed him the tweets, pictures, and tags.

His eyes scanned each and every one of them, and after he smiled and chuckled. "Oh Y/N." he gives you a tight hug, "Did you think I was angry about this? That I believed it?"

You nodded your head in his chest.

"You're such a dork." he ruffles your hair, "I would've called your if anything, and besides this is not something you would do. You're loyal, and kind, and I trust you. It was a mistake and the fans fault for taking things the wrong way."

You felt like there was a heavy weight that was lifted from your shoulder. He understood and listened carefully to your words and it made you realize how lucky you are to have him as your boyfriend.

He tried his best to cheer you up, making you food and putting on your favorite show.

When you got the notification that Jungkook was live on Weverse, you and your boyfriend stopped what you were doing to watch it, hoping he would clear up any rumor.

"Hello," he says, waving at the camera. He waited for more people to come on and just kept staring at the lense. When enough people joined, he started talking more.

"'did you see what is trending on twitter?' Yeah, I have actually. She looks pretty in that picture." he says, smiling to himself.

You tilted your head, confused by his words. Shouldn't he shoot down the rumor now instead of fueling it by saying how pretty you are?

"You guys should know that she is just has pretty as her name. Everything about her is flawless." he laughs to himself and reads another comment "'are you guys dating?' I guess this is where I have to be honest and upfront with you guys."

You felt relieved that he was finally going to dispell the rumors between you both and you can finally be at peace from all of this.

"Yes, we are dating. We wanted to keep it on the down low and she wanted to surprise me at the event, but I guess my love for her got the best of me."

Your blood ran cold and your eyes widened. Did you hear him correctly? Was he being serious? You were hoping he said something else and you just needed to check your hearing?

You turned to your boyfriend and see that hes also wide eye, frozen in his place, and even shaking just a little.

"Please, army, im asking you guys to refrain from getting into her privacy. She is human after all, my love and my girl. It would mean the world to me if you showed kindness and love to our relationship."

Why is he doing this? You didn't understand why he was saying these things and what made him attached to you. "What the actual fuck!" you screamed out, throwing your phone.

"How long have we been dating?" he reads aloud, "Since five months already." Jungkook smiles, "I cant believe time has flown by so fast!" he chuckles. "Do the members like her? Of course they do! They're so protective over her, but not too much. After all, shes my girl."

You were sick to your stomach hearing him speak more. The realization dawned on you from last night and why he kept on holding your hand tight, even when you had to move on. Him being your bias sickened you as you realized who this man truly is.

To his fans, he was the kindest and sweetest person ever, his eyes fooled everyone, even you. But now this?

Seeing your boyfriend on the couch, not saying a word broke your heart.

"Please, tell me you don't believe him babe," your eyes started to get watered, "I never met him before last night."

He finally looked at you, swallowing his spit and shaking his head, "Babe, its ok, I believe you." he answeres, "But t-that man," he points at your phone, "Hes fucking crazy. Sick in the head for thinking that. What the hell!?"

You walked up to your boyfriend, giving him a tight hug. "Don't worry babe, I'm going to fix this. I promise."

You left later that night and when you got home, you emptied your purse and thats when you noticed the album you brought with you to the fan meet.

Opening it up, your eyes almost bulged out of your head when seeing his sick note you left you.

You're the most prettiest girl I've ever met with the prettiest name. Please, I want to see you soon. Take care!

Below that had a phone number on it with the words next to it being "Contact me anytime."

You were stupid and dumb, but this needed to be fixed once and for all. Picking up your phone and putting in that number, you waited for the caller to pick up.

It went to voicemail.

You knew this was stupid and it wouldn't work, so you placed down your phone and screamed into your pillow. He's messing up the relationship between you and your man for no reason.

How could a lovely time turn into your worse? Were you actually curs-

*RING!*

Suddenly, your phone lights up with the number you put in and you almost chocked on your spit.

Slowly reaching out, you picked it up and answered, waiting for the person to speak.

"Who is th-this?" you ask, swallowing a nervous spit.

"You called me, shouldn't I be the one asking?"

The voice sounded familiar, but you didn't want to assume that it was him, however you were built on frustration and you let it all out.

"I know this is you, Jungkook. I found the number you left in my album. You are a sick bastard for what you're doing!" You yelled, "What the fuck gave you the idea that we are dating? Why the fuck are you saying this when I've never met you in my entire life.

"Do you not understand that you're ruining my relationship that I have with my boyfriend!?" You yelled into the phone, a tear slipping down.

The line stayed quiet and it pissed you off even more. Even if it wasn't Jungkook on the line, it had to be someone close to him since he wrote this number down by heart.

"Oh, its nice hearing from you finally!" his voice rung out, almost too happy, "How have you been, love?"

You felt the anger rushing in all over again as you laughed, "Are you fucking kidding me!? Did you not hear what I said??"

"I did, yes. But why should that concern me?" he asks, seemingly not caring about the situation he created.

"Did you not care to consider the fact that you're ruining my life? People around me are calling me a whore, they think I left my boyfriend because I met you! Do you not get it?!"

He chuckles a bit, "Don't listen to them, their words should mean nothing. Besides, what do you want me to do about it?"

You froze in place as you were left dumb founded. Is this man serious? "Are you fucking kidding me!? I want you to fix this! We aren't dating and I have a boyfriend, Elijah is his name. Not Jungkook."

Jungkook was quiet for a few seconds before speaking up, "You know, I don't think your boyfriend would be happy with how you were fliritng with me at the event."

You laughed at his stupidity, almost close to hanging up and calling the cops even. "Flirting with you? How was I flirting with you!?"

"The things you said about me being adorbale, funny and all of that. Don't play stupid, its not cute. What would your boyfriend do when he hears the things you said about me?"

"You cannot be serious." you say, angry and confused, "That wasn't fliritng, Jungkook! I was genuonely complimenting you since you were my bias! You need to get out of delusional land!"

"Love, you expect me to go back online and tell the world that what I said isn't true?" he asked.

"Well, fucking obviously!" you screamed.

"Yeah, I can't do that. Besides, what would the fans think of me when I tell them that all that I said was a lie?" he says.

"Well everything was a lie! You created this mess!"

He sighs, "Y/N," you forgot he knew your name, "I'm not taking back my words. I genuinely like you and want something."

You pulled your hair in disbelief, "Jungkook, did you not hear me say that I have a boyfriend 50 times!? There is no us and will never be an us."

He was quiet and all you could hear was tapping. "If you're not going to say anything, I will."

"Love, do you know the power I have?" He asks, "I am a rich man, me and my members bring in 5 BILLION dollars every year. That being said, I have the power to do anything and that anything involves you. Army listens to what I say and eat it up, if I go online with tears in my eyes talking about how hear broken I am.... you can kiss your life and privacy goodbye."

You couldn't believe what you were hearing. "J-Jungkook, are you threatening me?" you asked, so shocked that you swear your heart stopped pounding.

"No, I would never. I'm just letting you know the consequences of what might happen." he says in a soft, degrading tone, "Listen, why don't we meet up and talk about this? Yeah? I'll send you an address first thing tomorrow. How does that sound?"

"No! I'm not going to meet you, are you crazy!?" you yell, gripping your phone tighter in your hands.

"I wonder how army will feel when they hear you say how 'fucking stupid' I am, and how delusional I am for simply being in love." he sighs, "I would hate for your reputation to plummet."

The feeling of your heart sinking is the worse feeling in the entire world. You were helpless and you didn't know what to do, this was completely out of your hands, he was in charge.

"W-why are you doing this to me?" you whisper, tears falling down, "what did I do?"

"Don't cry, my love." he whispers in a soothing tone, "Seeing you for the first time has made me helpless. I knew I needed you in my life. You are the most beautiful human I've ever laid eyes on. Lets talk more about this tomorrow, ok love?"

You didn't feel like talking more, so you stuttered out a yes before hanging up. This man is insane and you knew that if you made the smallest mistake, he has the power to ruin you and your family. What did you do to deserve this?

✩‌ haechan x reader | fluff | 1.3k

SUMMARY | in which haechan is always your one (and annoying) late-night customer at the 24/7 convenience store you work at and one evening, he forgets his wallet. in lieu of payment, he asks if he can take you out on a date instead. // part of the connection series

WARNINGS | slightly insecure reader, none really!

RATING | teen+

AUTHOR'S NOTE | please check out (and maybe send in some prompt requests) @nctpromptmeme!

You ring him up, like clockwork. 

The scanner picks up a bag of the Korean brand onion rings, two Red Bulls, and an instant noodle cup.  

He’s the only consistent man in your life, ignoring the fact that the sole reason why he’s in your life is because he always comes into the 24/7 convenience store you work at during late, sometimes ungodly, hours. Tonight, it’s not that bad: 1:53am. 

Rarely, no one else strolls in during your shift (and you’re grateful it’s a safe neighbourhood). 

However, this young man lives to make your shift a painful one. 

Usually with ruffled hair, transparent-framed glasses, and a simple t-shirt and sweatpants, he saunters in as if he owns the store, often swinging his keys or obnoxiously whistling along to the song playing in the background. From the moment he steps into the store, his existence alone irks you. 

Unsurprisingly, he then takes a solid ten minutes on average (yes, you’ve timed it) to buy his items. Whistling evolves into screeches or emphatic oohs and aahs. Sometimes, he even narrates the entire process, as if he's the main character in a show. And yet, despite it all, he ends up buying the same rotation of his favourite items. 

If not the onion rings, the shrimp crackers. If not the Red Bulls, the bottles of Monster instead. He may be grabbing one cup of noodles tonight, but other times it’s three. Potentially even a completely different brand, if he’s feeling adventurous.   

On that note, predictability is in his nature. You plead internally for him to live a little, to maybe even spice up his night with a little change, for crying out loud. Heck, maybe even change the grey or black t-shirt he always wears to a shade that’s not a neutral tone or to put on a jacket for once. 

And the cherry on top is the constant annoying smirk he flashes when you tell him his total. 

You want to punch it off his face, smear it across the shiny floors with the dirty mop water you use at the beginning and end of shift.  

“How are you doing tonight, gorgeous?” he asks. Sometimes gorgeous is replaced with beautiful or cutie. It only adds to his annoyance of regularity and you have an itch he does this all the time with others, making you not take his typical endearing terms seriously.  

You can’t help but roll your eyes. “I’m not gorgeous, but, as always, thank you for the compliment.” 

His smirk melts, and you catch yourself feeling a tinge of something as his features soften. 

“You are, though,” your regular says. You quickly glance up, wondering if that pout and look in his eyes are genuine. “You know that I call you gorgeous because I mean it, right?” 

You’re unsure how to react, so you give a small nod and repeat the total, softly this time.

There’s a beat when the man gets lost in thought, but the moment quickly fades. He reaches into his sweatpants. However, he stops abruptly, before he reaches in again and pats the outside of his other pockets. 

“Fuck,” he hisses. You realize two things: one, you’ve never heard him curse; and two, he doesn’t have his wallet.

Well, that surely is different than usual.

Instinctively, you pull the snacks toward you. 

“Don’t you dare think I’m letting you walk away with everything for free,” you say, half-jokingly. Even though you’re 80% certain you can trust him, you still don’t know what he’s like.  

He smiles sweetly, quite differently than his smirks, forcing you to admit he’s handsome (just a little). “How could you expect me to stoop that low?” he whine-asks, clutching his chest in pain. 

After a moment of staring up at the ceiling in thought with his tongue running against his lower teeth, a Cheshire grin spreads over his face and he raises an eyebrow.

You don’t like it one bit and regret the moment earlier, mentally punching yourself for finding him a tiny bit attractive. 

“How about…”—he pauses as he rhythmically taps his fingers onto the counter—“...you let me take you out on a date in exchange for these items?” 

A scoff releases into the air. “Are you really telling me I’m only worth $11.87?” 

“What—no! Of course not,” he flicks a wrist upward in annoyance, then gestures to himself. “A date with me is worth way more in value, so you’ll be getting a better bargain.” 

You could not believe this guy. “Is a date with you really going to be worth it?” 

“Look,” he leans in over the counter and you catch a whiff of a light, woody scent. You fight off the desire to deeply inhale it. “No matter where we go or what happens, I’ll make sure you’ll be happy by the end of it. Isn’t that worth taking the risk of losing $11.87?” 

Squinting your eyes at him, while still clutching the goods he wants, you start to warm-up to the idea since you don’t have anything to lose (but maybe that’s due to the influence of his slightly intoxicating aura). 

“Will you choose the date location?” you ask, guarded.

He shakes his head. “Everything will be up to you and I’ll try to accommodate my schedule as best as I can.” 

You raise an eyebrow, challenging him. “And what if I want to go to the most expensive restaurant in town?”

Without hesitation, he nods. “Then we’ll go to the most expensive restaurant in town.” 

“If I wanted to order the $130 steak?” 

“$130 steak it is.” 

“If I—” 

The cute (you can’t deny it at this point) stranger cuts you off with a raise of his hand. God, you hate how cocky he is. 

Suddenly, he holds out a hand, sticking his pinky finger up. He waggles it, and you realize he’s waiting for you to do the same. You curl a pinky around his.

“There. I promise you—cross my heart and swear on my mother’s life—that I’ll uphold and adhere to whatever date conditions you ask of me.” He straightens, stepping away from the counter. “Now, can I please have my snacks and drinks?” 

The events of tonight took quite a turn. Never in a million years would you think Mr. Predictability would ask you out on a date, let alone be pretty sweet about it.  

Perhaps there’s more to him than you thought. 

You hand him your phone, and he does the same. 

When he gives it back, you shake your head at the text he sent and the name he gave himself.

“Hyuck?” you ask, unfamiliar with the name.  

“Short for Donghyuck, but yes, beautiful?”

You turn your phone towards him in disbelief. “What’s with the heart next to your name?” 

He shrugs, flashing you another smug smile. “What about it?”  

Glancing down at his phone, he beams. You wonder if it’s because you wrote the following in brackets after your name: You Owe Me a Date Worth More than $11.87. 

“And your name is just as beautiful as you are.” 

Again, another eye roll. You wonder if the date will be filled with more of it. You shove the stuff towards him. 

“I have to know: do those lines really work?”

“Well, I have a date lined up with you, so you tell me.” 

Before you have a chance to retort, he grabs something out from his pocket.

A wallet.

His motherfucking wallet, and he has the audacity to toss a $20 bill onto the counter with the same grin that you still want to wipe the floor with. Your jaw hangs. 

“Keep the change,” he says, along with your name and grants you a wink as he grabs his items. 

“I’ll be seeing you on our date soon, gorgeous.”

thank you for reading! i've been getting so much love for this - y'all are amazing. if you would like to read an informal continuation, see here!

Dem Hi! I'm back with a bit of an unhinged ask here:

Im sure this doodle gives you an idea where this is going. I was just making myself some tea, and I was thinking about Lovers In Eden (i was going to listen to a song called Eastward of Eden by Amelia Day,hence the association). And Since I am a film student, a writer and i took script classes as my subject las trimester, i offer you this unhinged recap of my conspiracy theory. So LIE (Lover in Eden) introduces us to the idea that Strife killed Y/N after a bloodlust outburst,right? Well, at first i didnt think too much of it, but then the chapter ends with the four on earth, which felt a little disembodied from the prologue. Which brings me to the hipothesis which is: Strife's lover is on earth,reborn without their memories. My proof for this theory is this: 1) We know that in the darksiders universe there is such thing as a well of souls, we know they go through the kingdom of the dead to repent and then be reborn through the well. 2) you wouldntve put the line "Love slayer" if it wasnt relevant to the plot. (Writing often times includes phrasing things a certain way to hint at other things). 3) Why would you close the chapter where you did? What relevance does the fact that the four are now on earth have? Simple, Strife will find a reborn,survivor Y/N and will fall in love with them (and have a crisis once he realizes its a whole like soulmates finding eachother again situation) 4) and last (which came to me as i wrote this) if you were to center the story only on Strife and the reader without the reader being reborn, you wouldve just started it from the medieval age/wherever strife met the reader and not end with the four on earth. Of course dont gotta tell me if im right,dont want to spoil the whole fic anyways. But I felt the need to share this with you. (I genuienly felt like the pepe silvia meme). And yeah, one offshoot of all this is that maybe the reader isnt a reborn soulmate, and that the prologue could just set up this inherit guilt and fear towards love that Strife has. Until we get the next chapter, i lay in wait...scheming/lhj/hj Have a nice rest of your day and i hope you've enjoyed my unhinged ramble. -Jer. PD: i feel so silly for sending this whole thing but as a fellow writer i know theres nothing we love more than ppl theorizing about our stuff. So here you go. I hope it doest read as overbearing,i just genuienly love your stuff.

First off, I love your pepe doodle! It’s so perfect. In fact I find it so funny that I made this a little bit ago myself... (As much as I'd love to rant and such about my AUs' lore and headcanons, I made this for shits and gigs)

I absolutely adore hearing theories readers have about my fics. (Sorry this has taken FOR-EV-ER to respond to, I'm terrible with replying at times)

I also fucking LOVE that you're a film student, I think that makes this whole theory situation even better because I do tend to have a very movie-esque thought process when writing. (Blooper reel and BTS footage rent free in my head)

And I think I've got the mind stewing a bit with that recent post, Flowers From My Lover. Without hopefully giving away anything, you do have some valid and interesting points in your theories and has me going, "Oh Jer is good little detective." You get a cookie for your theory skills!

There are indeed certain key details and clues I put in on purpose and it's so interesting to see what readers pick up on. And yes, the well of souls is involved to some extent in this plotline, but not in the way you might think...

I also find your choice of the word "reborn" interesting. Very obviously and right out the gates, I will say that yes, reader is alive in this story. But it's the manner in which reader's alive and again, the reborn theory is interesting and again, possibly not in a way you're expecting. Though it seems rather simple, I will tease that there is... quite a bit more to it than what's at face value.

And I wanna tease this little clue too because it is one of my favourites: It's interesting how the fic's title has a double meaning in plain sight...

Curiou Cat Q+A Compilation

So since Curious Cat is officially dead (rip), I decided to put some of the Q+A's I answered in like 2019 here. Most of them are Mafumafu-related song analyses and some of my basic opinions on Vocaloid and utaite, so if you wanna read some yap, knock yourself out. Also, I like yapping. So feel free to submit more asks LOL

What are your thoughts on 'last stop' by mafu (lyrically n musically) ?

Sometimes I feel like Shuuten (Last Stop) has lyrics that are really dark compared to Mafumafu's other songs, but then I listen to them and realize that they're not really haha. I think, to me at least, that they come off darker, because of the song's execution and composition. I think Mafumafu mentioned that when he was writing this song, he was basically having an existentialism crisis but then realized that, "oh, well, in the end we all die anyways…". So yes it's really dark, but then in end it's kind of comforting? I mean I don't think anything's harder than this life, honestly haha. And I think another thing Mafumafu said is that he realized it doesn't matter who we are, we all get off at the same last stop. I think the song follows this thought process, as it goes from rolling in angst, to reveling in angst, to accepting that angst.

The one thing that did stand out to me in the lyrics is that he referenced "Swaying from Season to Season". In my head, I divide Mafumafu's songs into different categories. So we have songs that are more rock and dark (like Shuuten), songs that are related to Yume Hanabi, and then… I guess I just stick Swaying from Season to Season with Ouka ni Tsukuyo to Sodeshigure lol. Anyways, my point is, he doesn't mix the lyrics he uses with songs in these separate categories too often, but for some reason he referenced Swaying from Season to Season in Shuuten. Why he did that? I really don't know lol. It might just be another contrast thing, since that song is everything Shuuten isn't.

Musically, Shuuten is fantastic. The whole song seems to be built on contrasts. I love how the verses are sung low and fast and are paired with an uncomplicated instrumental that has no bass guitar. I think this makes it sound like mumbling and causes the chorus to be that much more startling. When bass is introduced, the instrumental gets more complicated and Mafumafu starts screaming (lol). Usually in music, high notes and melodies are associated with fast tempos, but I like how Mafumafu did the opposite in Shuuten by having the lyrics slow down when he reaches the chorus. Not only is there a build up when the chorus is reached, but there's one continuous build up throughout the whole song until it reaches the last chorus but then falls again. I guess you could say that the chorus is our… Last Stop *ba dum tsh*

What are your thoughts on Sekai Shikku ni Shounen Shoujo?

Ahhhh I really like this song. Yes, while it is full of existentialism like mafu's other songs, it still makes me feel happy. For me, I really think about it as a song that ties all of us fans together. We're all sick of the world, and nameless boys and girls who haven't really found our place in the world. I also like how the lyrics mention the Summer Triangle. When I think of the summer triangle, I think of the Japanese holiday Tanabata. In the Tanabata story, Orihime and Hikoboshi (represented by the stars Vega and Altair, which are two corners of the Summer Triangle) can only meet once a year. I think it's really similar to how fans and After the Rain don't meet very often and basically only do through their live concerts. So it's bittersweet but something every one looks forward to every year.

Since people are asking about your thoughts on certain songs, I was wondering what your thoughts are on Mafumafu's Nuko series?

I probably don't have as much to say about this series as I do about others lol. I think they're really cute and fun songs. My favorite song in the series is Neko ga Maruku Natta (actually, is this song even in the series haha). It's a lot calmer compared to the other songs but surprisingly deep. I love it's message about how we should try to do our best with the life we're given and make the world rounder by trying to understand each other. This may be different than what Mafumafu means, but I'm literally trying to do that by studying and translating Japanese lol. Also, it has all of Mafu's friends as cats in the MV???? And that's super adorable???

What are your thoughts on Antivirus from Izanaware Traveler?

I mentioned this in my translation, but I feel like Antivirus has a similar meaning to Merry Bad End and Hello Dystopia. I don't want to assume anything, but to me at least it seems like the lyrics talk about toxic fans.

I feel like AtR had a really rough year last year. I mean, they've written a couple other songs before last year that were kinda calling out how their fans conduct themselves online, but I think last year had about 4 songs that were like that…

Um, so, I guess rather than going through Antivirus and highlighting what destructive behavior fans could be doing, I rather talk about what good things fans can do. I think it's important to not just be a fan, but also a supporter of your favorite artists. It's good to send them good messages, fanart, etc. In fact, I'm sure they love it so much! I wanna just shower everyone in good vibes and affection gah. On the other hand though, it's not ok to treat them like they're an anime character. They are very real people. This has kind of been on my mind since I started translating and interacting more with the international utaite fandom, but I think we're just as accountable, if not more, for what we post online about utaite. I feel like the English fandom is kind of like the wild west and people can get away with saying a lot of things because most utaites don't speak English. However, this also means that they can't address problems that may arise in the fandom. I've been really surprised about some of the things I've seen posted, and if the same things were posted in Japanese, I know that they would affect utaites and their fans. More than anything though, I get really sad about it because I respect these musicians so much because they've played such a positive influence in my life. It's also good to be mindful of what content we post because perpetuating misleading or toxic ideas doesn't set a good example to new international utaite fans. I want a lot of artists to get popular and perform internationally (and in the states, where I'm from), but when that time comes, I want to welcome them as a proud international utaite fan and not someone that is embarrassed about what their peers post online.

Sorry, this got really heavy and long :< On a lighter note, I thought Mafumafu's choice of using the word "Antivirus" was really funny because I work in cyber security and the song was using the definition as more as medical term. But then again, maybe it was intentional, considering that the virus AtR has had to deal with is online.

Who is your favorite utaite and why? (Or I guess who are your favorites, if it's too hard to choose one!)

EASY. My favorite utaite is Soraru and everyone that knows me knows that LOL. My friends ask me "How's Soraru?" instead of asking how I am. It's been super fun seeing how much he's improved over the years and how hard he works. I'm also just very used to his voice so I guess out of all utaites I prefer his.

I think I got attached to him pretty fast forever ago because we had similar interests? Like idk, a lot of the games he played and songs he recorded were my favorites too. I didn't understand Japanese when I first became his fan, but after learning Japanese I've come to really appreciate his personality. I've had tooooooo many times in my life where I would be struggling with an issue or feeling down, and somehow Soraru would say something that would help me out. And he's just so nice and takes care of his friends and is really thoughtful and considerate towards his fans but still blunt and true to himself.

I mentioned this in a previous ask, but yeah I learned Japanese because of Soraru. And Japanese has had such a huge influence on my life, that I can't imagine my life without it. I've made so many good friends, and ended up focusing my career and schooling on Japanese. I literally have no idea where I would be if I didn't learn Japanese because of him. He ruined my life because I was supposed to be a STEM girlie XD but I love him for it :D

What are your favorite vocaloid songs and who are your favorite vocaloid producers (and why)?

To make it easier for me to answer, I'm going to focus on your second question first lol. My favorite producer's are Deco*27 and MikitoP.

When I was in 7th grade, I was convinced that I would never need to fall in love if Deco*27 kept writing music. Love seems like a really basic feeling, but Deco*27 never fails to capture both the good and bad sides of it. It's been fun seeing how his songs have progressed from cute/normal/sad love songs, to twisted ones. I like how his songs are both pop but rock at the same time? And while his music has definitely changed a lot from when he first started, he somehow still manages to use the same distinguishing synths lol. Also, his lyrics are just straight up amazing. They have so many puns and double meanings. He references and recycles the same words a lot, so it's fun listening to recent songs and then hearing him reference a song he wrote 10 years ago. Also, in terms of actual Vocaloid usage, I like how his songs still sound like they use Vocaloid (like he doesn't try to make them sound human) but are still really easy to listen to. My favorite songs by him include Chocolate Beats, Mukashi Mukashi no Kyou no Boku, Dokusenyoku, Starlight Girl… there are too many lol

MikitoP is my other favorite because I feel like his music is really similar to classical Japanese poetry. Instead of telling a story, he captures a single moment and uses that scene to convey a certain emotion. His use of seasonal words really help in painting the scene and making the songs more Japanese-y too. In his songs that do tell a story, they're never super specific and so it's fun to speculate what's going on. So lyrically wise, they're amazing enough, but then he somehow manages to create the perfect instrumentals and melodies to go along with everything. Also, I feel like a lot of his songs are summer themed and summer's my favorite season :D Idk how he makes his music so chill, but then manages write freaking bangers too. My favorite songs by him include Yuugure Twitter, Yuudachi no Ribbon, Shutter Chance, Natsu no Hanken, Ballerina Girl, and Boku wa Hatsune Miku to Kiss wo Shita.

What's your favorite song written by Soraru and what's your favorite Soraru song regardless of the writer?

My favorite song written by Soraru is poco from After Rain Quest and my favorite Soraru song in general is... oof that's a really tough question XD I'm pretty sure I've heard like 500 or something songs by him. Yeah, I don't think I can answer haha. Sorry! There's just too many and I love them all

Do you have any advice for someone who also wants to start posting covers online? Also, what's your favorite Vocaloid/Utaite song to sing?

I might not be the best person to ask about this, considering I've only posted one video, but Soraru said something before in an interview that helped push me to upload something. He said that it's really hard and scary in the beginning to post things because you're a beginner and obviously not perfect or the best, so what he did was find one thing that he really liked about his cover that no other cover had, and used that as motivation to upload and contribute to the community. It could be something really small, like just one note or how you pronounce something, but take that and embrace it so you don't get scared of putting yourself out there.

However, even though no one's perfect in the beginning, I think that's one of the things that's the most fun about utaites. I love going back through utaite mylists and seeing how much they're improved over the years. It makes me excited to see how much I'll improve in the future and uploading stuff will give me an easy way to track my progress.

To answer your other question, I really like singing everything by MikitoP and Deco*27 hahaha. But aside from them, I really like singing songs by Ishifuro like Yuugure Sensei :D

the playlist

“hey, why don’t you put some music on?” he asked; a completely innocuous question, but i have plenty of playlists with various energies, most to all of them being passionate. i scroll past many of my playlists “angry for the upteenth time”, “i will not shut up”, “laundry list”, “the sad side of bpd”, none of them quite fit what i was looking for. “sex with the dead”. now that was what i wanted.

in my room

we continued solving our respective rubix cubes. it was a mutual hyperfixation. “oh, i love this one”, he said, turning to me. my legs laid across his lap; a mild form of physical contact, perfectly explained as completely platonic. “it’s the certain kind of obsession that i absolutely love.” i turned, looking into his eyes. he had the most beautiful eyes, his dark hair framing them perfectly. my eyes flitted from his eyes to his lips for only a moment. it was a classic move, he returned the gesture. i looked away, feigning bashfulness, letting out a small laugh. “bryn, what are we doing?” he grasped my chin gently and turned my face to his. he brushed my hair from my face, cupping it in his hand for a moment. he gently kissed me. pulling away slowly, i scanned his eyes for any sort of emotion, any intention; he could see the doe-eyed look on my face though, in that moment, he knew exactly what we were going to do.

tear you apart

grabbing my throat, he pushed me to lay on the couch. as he applied gentle pressure on the sides, i couldn’t help but pull him closer. his lips met mine and we were deep in the throws of passion. grasping, groping, holding his hips, running my fingers through his hair, “more”, i gasped. he choked me harder and my mind went blank. in that moment, i was his for the taking. he pulled up my shirt and undid my bra; with his free hand, he pulled and twisted my nipple. he had once commented on the desperation that this song made him feel; i agreed in the moment but didn’t understand the magnitude of this feeling until now. the gasps that were escaping my mouth soon turned to moans. he removed his hand from my nipple and clasped it over my mouth. “be quiet, or i will be forced to shut you up.” i nodded, expectedly, obedience was only my forté when it came to what he asked of me. removing his hand from my mouth, he planted his lips atop one nipple, using his now free hand to twist, pinch, and pull the other.

in my mouth

although i tried to keep quiet, my efforts were in vain. he removed his once occupied hand from my nipple and shoved his fingers down my throat; “mm, your gag reflex is still nonexistent, i see.” i sucked his fingers for a moment, reminding him of my capabilities. he gently bit down on my nipple, prompting a short yelp. i returned his bite, harder than his. he grunted and withdrew his hand. “on your knees. now.” i sat on the floor, looking up at him hungrily. he undid his belt and dropped his pants. he had hardly done so before i had taken the whole thing in my mouth. it was much bigger than i had remembered, but this was no problem for me. i began working my way up and down his length and soon it was him who could not control his volume. removing his dick from my mouth, i looked up at him mischievously. he looked down to see my expression and commanded “open. wide.” i shook my head at him, a small smile forming on my face. he grabbed a fistful of my hair with one hand and forced my mouth open with the other. he forced himself between my lips, moving then to hold both sides of my head. he thrusted in time with the music, each time hitting the back of my throat; i was loving every minute.

not my type: dead as fuck 2

the moment the song started, he removed himself from my mouth. “beanbag” i immediately complied with his command and laid down. retrieving his belt, he tied my hands above my head. kissing him one last time before he began, i bit his lip; tasting his blood made my head spin. “oh, so we’re biting again?” he put his fingers into my mouth once again and then swiftly pushed them inside of me. he latched onto my throat, his teeth sinking into my flesh. my gasps returned as i struggled for air. i felt as though i would soon lose consciousness. he bit harder for only a moment longer, withdrawing with my blood in his teeth. i sat up to kiss him and he pushed me back down, moving his head to between my legs. i thought he would soon get to work, but he instead bit deeply into my thigh. my moans returned and he shoved my panties into my mouth. once again, the pain made my head spin; when i felt i could not take any more, he moved his lips to the ones between my thighs. as he got to work, my head began spinning again. i was moving closer and closer to the end and my moans matched the sentiment. my back arched as i finished, losing consciousness.

dragula

i awoke to find myself bent over the side of the couch, hands tied behind my back now. “oh good, you’re awake, i was worried i would have to start before you woke up.” he whispered in my ear. i could feel his hard, throbbing cock pressed against me. “are you ready?” “mmhmm” i answered through my panties, still in my mouth. he pulled me closer and entered me from behind, slowly. he knew that i had a hard time due to his sheer size, i whimpered as he entered further. “i know, i know it hurts, be a good girl and take it for me.” i was beginning to see stars, but i knew there was still more to take. i felt impossibly full. he was moving slowly at first but he soon began to lose control. he thrust harder and faster, the line between pain and pleasure blurring in my mind. i could feel myself gripping around him, but it was hard to tell given the sheer girth he possessed. i could feel it again, i was losing consciousness; i spit the gag from my mouth and whimpered “please”. “hmm?” he asked between grunts. “please i can’t-“ and i lost consciousness again.

talk

when i woke up, i noted that he had changed the playlist. as he ran his fingers up and down my chest, a shiver ran through my body. i found myself covered in a blanket, my hands free, with his cum dripping from my lips. “here we go” he said, turning me on my side to look towards him. i could barely keep my eyes open, but the look on his face told me everything i needed to know. “did i-“ i said in a voice, barely above a whisper. “you did great, love. are you okay?” he asked, brushing my hair from my face. “mmhmm” “good, here, drink this” he handed me a glass of water and i drank the whole thing. he held me tightly for a while, then stood up and got some fruit snacks. i fell back asleep before he could return.

[kitpanthera]

chapters 11-13 🎉

again, no pressure to answer any/all of them! thanks sm!!

but first, a visual representation of me for the past two days:

1. bill telling dipper to put the journal away because he can answer dipper's questions ! really trying to drive that wedge in now huh. wondering what the plan would've been if he didn't end up bringing dipper in so much? like, what he would've done if they didn't have their more intense and sincere bonding sessions later when dipper basically swears to stand by him no matter what. would have have still had dipper try to bond with ford or try to keep him out of the equation?

2. dipper not even caring that he almost got mauled by a wolf ! child, what are you doing ! also, is there a particular reason it got changed from the canon panther to a wolf?

3. i wonder what the alternate universe where mabel decides to fully trust dipper and bill after the situation with gideon looks like right now...

4. did mabel overhearing dipper's conversation with bill change her feelings about bill? or would she always have reverted back to being anti-bill?

5. "despite knowing she wouldn't have a clue who he really was" dipper, maybe dig a little deeper into that sentence. feels like it goes beyond the costume, buddy.

6. "are you really showing your birthmark?" is mabel upset because she's worried he's going to get picked on or that this is another sign of how close he is to bill? or are their parents the ones that wanted him to hide the birthmark (since it's "freaky," as wendy says) and she's picked up on that?

7. did the trickster actually sense dipper's magic or did he really feel bill?

8. dipper not caring about bill burning his universe to the ground,,, time for more self-reflection?

9. i love that you called out how weird the shirtless werewolf thing is. especially since stan knows how insecure dipper is!

10. with dreamscapes not happening the way it does in canon, dipper never finds out that this is all a (misguided) attempt from stan to help him. of course, it really just shows the double standards he has between mabel and dipper. do you think that's because of a gender thing or that he thinks dipper is too much like ford?

11. is blue really dipper's natural magic color or bill lying again?

12. bill driving a further wedge between dipper and everyone else by being the only safe place he can express himself and dipper told him he was the only one he felt seen by 😐 i feel totally normal about this 😐

13. what songs do you think bill is singing to dipper (i love this sm)?

14. not me sending the previous question about bill not being with the henchmaniacs when the answer is literally in ch 13. is it just that it's harder for him to focus more on stuff when he's in two places at once? so for big things (like his fight with ford in the nightmare realm), he's only in one place? (feel free to ignore if you address it in my other ask!)

thanks!

Shdgbkjcjk I am so honored, sincerely, that you are this obsessed with my fic, I'm so glad you're enjoying it this much aaaaaa

1. In that case, I think he would try to keep Ford more distant, while trying to draw him in himself on his own time. He'd be too dangerous to keep around a Dipper he wasn't certain would be loyal.

2. He trusts that he's protected. :) Why a wolf? Symbolism, my friend, symbolism!

3. Weirdmageddon is a lot more brightly colored. And glittery. Also, their parents... well.

4. Hearing them talking and hearing that the costume was actually supposed to be Bill reminded her how deep he was in it and sent her in the anti-Bill direction again. More on this is the novella!

5. It sure does!

6. It's all about Bill. He's changing her brother, and even if it seems to be positive progress, it scares her. Still more on this in the novella!

7. That is the question to be asked! Who knows? :)

8. Like myself at his age, he's way too dismissive of things that should be concerning, and way too emotionally intelligent for someone so young. To him, it's something Bill probably doesn't want to actually talk about in depth.

9. Yes!! I thought this was so weird and kind of creepy in canon? Especially given him being shirtless? No one is safe, I'm calling out canon!

10. Stan has some gender stuff he's never worked through. On one hand, there's the antiquated idea that men must be strong, both physically and mentally, at all times, which he holds himself to. He sees Dipper's weakness and he sees Ford, someone who had trouble defending himself as a child. Stan knows for himself that boxing and self defense really toughened him up, helped him defend himself when he had his back against the wall. Ford never properly learned those, and he didn't have the fortitude Stan had, and look where it got him, right? So Stan thinks in order to help save Dipper from becoming Ford, he should make him more like himself, able to survive in any environment life throws him into.

11. It's his natural color! His aura is sort of a murky royal blue color, and the color of your magic reflects the color of your aura in my AU.

12. :)

13. So everything he sings is very gentle since he's singing him to sleep, so imagine these songs as soft and sweetly sung, sweet as honey:

Dreamcatcher by Set It Off

Blackbird by The Beatles

Speed of Sound by Coldplay

Arsonist's Lullaby by Hozier

14. Yeah, pretty much! He's not omnipresent or anything, but it's hard for him to split his attention between two realms perfectly the way he has to sometimes.

Valdi & Vlad

I finally made some refs for my two OCs. I'll probably remake them in the future, but for now these will have to do. Let's start. (I'll keep adding things here from time to time)

Likes: - Music (especially certain band and certain song, hints are everywhere) - Drawing - Classic Cars - Driving around in his Jalopy - Collecting DB Shotguns (Just because he likes how they look) Other things about Valdi:

His skin is really stretchy and feels like plush fabric.

He's 22 but he likes to be a bit childish and playful (he just prefers to be like that).

Music works on him in lots of different ways. Some songs calm him down, others amp him up (even sending him into a full frenzy mode) and some just amplify current emotions.

He's a bit sensitive and can feel pain, but will try his best to hide it.

Really emotional, small mistake can cause lots of stress and simple hug can make him breakdown in tears

Highly durable, can survive different types of damage, cuts, burns, almost anything… (But he will ▮▮▮▮▮▮▮▮ if he gets ▮▮▮▮▮▮▮ or ▮▮▮▮▮▮▮ ▮▮▮▮▮▮▮ because the pain is too much)

Slow healer, but he has his ways of speeding up the process (comfy clothes/blanket, favourite songs and someone nearby)

Easily scared, catch him off-guard and he'll shoot up like a scared cat

Hates being compared to or called a cat/kitty

Likes: - Music (Same as Valdi) - Classic cars - Building and fixing things - Demolition Derby

Other things about Vlad:

His skin feels like and old worn down hoodie.

Music has less effect on him, but works more on his engine, slowing it down, revving it up or in the worst case causing a "runaway"

Almost completely desensitized to pain (but it's still there)

Doesn't show it, but he's emotional too.

Until the engine is running, so does he, no matter the damage.

THE CAR

[I'll add something here when I draw it. But you might see it in these drawings of mine 1 2 ]

Looks like cartoony version of Datsun 100a / Nissan Cherry '70 / Satsuma AMP. It was first car that Valdi and Vlad put together. Thanks to special device (Vlad's invention) this car can take Valdi to any place he desires (like other people's AUs or even other places like games or comics) Of course nothing is risk free. While visiting other places, everything is adapted to that place ruleset. For example, if characters there have HP or stamina, so does Valdi.

And here are few answers for questions nobody asked:

Is he a TADC OC?

No. He's my first character I created like good 10 years ago. Back then I mostly doodled him in my notebook at school. When TADC came out and I started to draw again, I immediately brought him back. And since then I send him out to all these different TADC AUs because I like them and he likes them too!

Why is he so simple? Couldn't you make him more interesting?

I could, but I like him that way. He's simple, small, soft, huggable and easy to draw. And that lets me focus more on characters other people create.

Why won't you just make more versions of Valdi for different AUs?

As you can see above, I did that once for Carnival AU by sm-baby Then I thought he didn't quite fit in that AU and instead of scrapping and forgetting him I thought of a way to bring him out of there. I simply get too attached to them, I couldn't just make more just to scrap or forget one of them.

Why the hell are you putting him in every drawing you make?

Because that helps me in lots of ways. I just like the idea that he gets to experience all the things I draw, meets all these amazing characters and having a great time. I kinda treat all of this as one big adventure for him. And drawing him being happy makes me feel a bit better. Honestly, It might sound weird but I don't know If I could've made all these drawings if it weren't for that little yellow gremlin. He's like my tiny canvas pet that's always there to support me.

What's the deal with the car? Couldn't you just magically put him in any AU you want?

Well I could, but I overthink things a lot. That's why I gave him a car. He can just hop in, set destination and just keep on driving as the radio starts to play his favourite tune, his eyes will begin to close, the road slowly fading away in front of him, and then *blink*, and he's there, just like that

Viper Wrapped 2023

(2022 here!)

Hi hi! Back again to share some of the things I enjoyed this year :3

As far as concerts go, it was a lot slower than last year. I saw NINE separate shows and TWENTY-NINE unique bands -- some old faves and some new. I think my favourite out of the bunch were both of the Bury Tomorrow headliners I got to see. They're sweet guys and put on a hell of a show. Hoping for more next year! 🩵

Here's a sampler playlist of 1-3 songs from each record:

without further adieu and in no particular order (and read left to right, top row first), here are my favourites for the year, under the cut

Left to right, 1-9 above, 10-18 below:

Heavener - Invent Animate (metalcore)

So Much (For) Stardust - Fall Out Boy* (rock?)

The Seventh Sun - Bury Tomorrow (metalcore)

Interludium - Powerwolf (power metal)

The Death We Seek - Currents (metalcore)

RAT WARS - HEALTH (industrial?)

Unreal Unearth - Hozier* (idk, y'all know what's up)

Take Me Back to Eden - Sleep Token (alt metal?)

[m]other - Veil of Maya (metalcore but proggy?)

Reflections - Caskets (alt metal?)

Fatalism - Polaris (metalcore)

Color Decay (Deluxe Edition) - The Devil Wears Prada** (metalcore)

Scoring the End of the World (Deluxe Edition) - Motionless in White** (metalcore)

Shrine (Deluxe Version) - Bleed From Within** (melodic metalcore)

Abyss Pt. I, EP - Annisokay (post-hardcore? that's what they say anyway...)

Venom - WARGASM (UK) (electric rock?)

Extreme Transgression - Transgressive (thrash metal)

Hands of Filth - Lust Witch (death metal)

*I know I've made a few posts complaining about FOB being mid, and that is still true. However, they have once again made a FOB album that nails their age-old sound, so why not include it? I enjoyed it, though I didn't think it was revolutionary in any way. They also greatly improved their live show since I saw them on their Lake Effect tour, so I have to give them some props here.

*Also I guess I'm a Hozier girlie now, what can I say? I'm being tamed like a wild animal.

**I opted to include all of these Deluxe editions mostly because I can. They aren't "new", but Interludium is also a different kind of animal, so why not?

If there's anything y'all would like to know specifically about certain albums, feel free to ask! I'm also gonna throw on some tags for people who expressed interest on my inquiry post about this 💖

Pomefiore Character Songs and Associations

Finally getting this part posted! since Tumblr ate my post the first time... I love this website ((:

We now move onto the most historical dorm - Pomefiore. The three characters here are some of the most dramatic, all in different ways from each other. But what music may connect with the three most tenacious people on campus?

Notes: Every song is from my liked songs playlist (so feel free to judge me for my taste, haha!) and I only allowed myself to use an artist once for this project. There is also some strong language and mature themes in some of the songs, so be aware if you choose to listen to them. I’ve included: - A song that represents them - A song they’d listen to - and (for some) an additional song, depending on the character and circumstance

The full Spotify playlist for ALL songs and characters is linked at the end of the post.

Heartslabyul | Savanaclaw | Octavinelle | Scarabia | Ignihyde | Diasomnia

Vil Schoenheit

Represented by: Rock Me, Amadeus - Falco

I was a little apprehensive about using this song for Vil. While it does fit his character and vibes, it is a little bit... suggestive. Putting that aside, Vil is (at least most of) this song. He's a superstar, popular, dramatic ("has flair!"), and everyone finds him to be beautiful and perfect, despite his flaws. And he does have flaws, which he doesn't want to address. I also headcanon that he has Austrian / German ancestry (or whatever the Twisted Wonderland equivalent is).

Listens to: Jackie and Wilson - Hozier

Again, I don't know why, but I believe Vil would listen to Hozier.  Vil would probably like the atmosphere created in Hozier's music.  And he'd appreciate Hozier's vocal tone and colour. I can't explain it further, but I think he'd really, really like it!

Epel Felmier

Represented by: Autotheist - Baby Bugs

Epel has some struggles with who he is. He's trying to figure out who he is within his personality, appearance, and identity. He feels a lot of pressures from others trying to shape who he is, how he looks, how he acts, and what he thinks. He's trying to find a place for himself, and he is angry about not having found it yet.

Listens to: That Turbulent Uneasy Feeling - D.O.A.

Epel would like fast-paced, aggressive music, that he can just feel. I think he would especially enjoy songs that criticize the mainstream social norms that he feels stifled by - hardcore punk would be his go-to genre. I can imagine him listening to this in his room after fighting with Vil... again. This song also represents his character well, actually!

Rook Hunt

Represented by: Prince Charming - Adam & the Ants

Rook is flamboyant. He is theatrical. And he, above almost all else, supports others in becoming their most beautiful selves. As such, the message of the song reflects Rook's motivations and thoughts. Additionally, the theatricality and subtle notes of violence of the group mirrors Rook's character beautifully. (Rook would also without a doubt listen to this, and other songs by Adam and the Ants. He is simply too dramatic not to!)

Listens to: Goodbye & Hello - Tim Buckley

Rook would simply adore the poetry of this song, and in fact, most of Tim Buckley's music. He would spend time listening, absorbing, and analyzing the lyrics, music, and history of the song. It also has an almost... historical, European-esque(?) feel to the instrumentation and musical lines that would highly appeal to him.

Bonus - Also listens to: All I Ask of You (Phantom of the Opera)

One of Rook's hobbies is going to theatre productions, and he would have just loved the grandeur and the tragedy and the heart of The Phantom of the Opera. I'm certain that he would consider "All I ask of You" to be an absolutely beautiful declaration of love and commitment, and would likely be one of his favourite musical theatre pieces.

Push - a Malevolent AU one-shot fic

They survived. John got his promised body. They're free. But Arthur is still blind, and now, he no longer has someone in his head, helping him around.

He's not all right. It's all coming out of him in anger. Today, John needed a break... and, left alone, Arthur tries a four-legged substitute.

It goes about as well as can be expected.

AO3

--------------

“How about Spot? That’s a good name for a dog, right?” said Arthur.

The dog continued as it was: panting, a bit of slobbering, occasionally stopping all of that noise so it could (presumably) lick its face.

It. Could be a boy, could be a girl. Arthur didn’t know. He petted its head, feeling its long and floppy ears. “Yeah, that’s a stupid name, huh? You probably don’t even have spots.”

No reply, of course. Stubborn; willful. So that really narrowed it down. “I know,” said Arthur. “I’m going to call you John.”

“Woof,” said the dog, which was possibly assent.

“Take that, you ass,” Arthur muttered, and burst into tears.

#

This was not a seeing-eye dog. Arthur knew about them, was fascinated with the concept, and had read all about them before he’d lost his sight. 

This was not that. This was just a dog that had wandered into the tiny house because fucking Jackass Doe had left the damn door open when he’d stormed out.

And Arthur hadn’t realized it was open. For all he knew, the place was filled with raccoons now. Or ants. Or had been robbed bloody blind (haha, see what he did there).

He sniffled again. (Jackass Doe wasn’t here to hear it, so it was fine.) “He’s not coming back this time, and I don’t fucking want him to, you hear?”

The dog—its chin resting on his knee—whined.

Dogs needed things. What did dogs need? Arthur had never kept a dog. Food and water, probably; and he knew he’d have to walk it.

That would be interesting. He wasn’t sure how to pick up the thing’s leavings when he couldn’t fucking see them. “This is going to be a pain, but you know what?” Arthur said, rubbing the dog’s neck. “It’s still less trouble than other messes certain people made!” he shouted at the Jackass, at the boxes, at the still-open door.

(He hoped John could hear him.)

(He knew John wasn’t close enough to hear him.)

“I probably need to hire someone, huh?” he said softly. At least that would be possible thanks to the success of his last three songs. 

Once he figured out how to get help without asking for it, that is.

Because he didn’t want to ask for it, that’s why.

(And it absolutely was not the reason Jackass Doe had left.)

(Fine. Maybe it was.)

He supposed the door should be shut.

“I can do this,” he said, standing. It would’ve been easier, certainly, if they’d finished unpacking first, but that had been delayed because Jackass Doe wanted Arthur familiar with the whole house before they filled it with their things, and Arthur knew that was totally unnecessary because he could figure it out as they went.

It had started the whole damn fight.

Not until you can tell me how many drawers there are!

A thousand! Two! It doesn’t fucking matter! Just put the fucking forks in one, and I’ll figure it out!

It had seemed really important at the time.

“Woof,” said the dog.

What did dogs eat, anyway? “I don’t have any rabbit, or anything,” said Arthur, hands out, trying to find the door by feel. His foot hit a box, and he tried to shuffle around it. “I can get to the store. I’ll buy you something.” That had been a primary reason for buying this house, though it was small: a supply store in close walking distance, on this side of the street.

Arthur made it around the box and wiped his face on his sleeve because the handkerchiefs were packed. “I’ll fucking find them,” he vowed, trying to orient toward the door again. “I don’t need him.” 

Which he had yelled.

Which was when Jackass left.

Which was why he wasn’t coming back this time.

Arthur found the door by running into it. “Ha,” he said, and closed and locked it. “We’re safe now, buddy.”

The dog started barking.

Something hissed in return.

Oh. Raccoons (?) were already in the house. To the symphony of barking and hissing, Arthur turned and opened the door again, hoping this would take care of itself.

Instead, the sounds took off, some kind of weird feet slapping, dog claws scratching, and the whole cacophony raged into the kitchen (something crashed and broke), then into the bedroom (he distinctly heard the lamp fall and the bulb shatter), and only then back out the front door with the dog on its heels.

Whatever it was hit him pretty hard on its way out. It felt like getting socked by a feather-covered wall.

Arthur landed heavily and stared after them, seeing nothing. Anticipating, with horror, trying to clean up broken glass he could not see.

They didn’t even have a phone (though Jackass had threatened to get one). It didn’t matter. Who could he call, anyway?

Arthur leaned against the door, tired, alone, complicit in his own desertion, and hid his face in his hands.

#

The dog came back.

A while later, so did the Jackass.

“What the fuck did you do?” bellowed John Doe, who bellowed nearly everything, who was hard to read when he’d first got his body because he’d only ever had vocal cords designed to proclaim.

Arthur lifted his head from where he’d pillowed it on the dog. He was in the middle of the living room floor; there was glass in the kitchen and glass in the bedroom, and he’d cut himself twice before giving it up as a bad job.

There was still a sliver in his thumb. He could feel it, but he couldn’t see it. “I suppose you’re happy now,” his mouth said before his head could catch up. “You were right and I’m helpless. Go to hell.”

“Oh, what the fuck,” said John, kneeling beside him.

John smelled so good. He always smelled so good, improbably smoky, somehow herbal, like he’d wrapped country air in a cologne. “You’re bleeding.”

“I’m fine." 

John took his hand anyway. “Splinter. Hold on.”

Arthur knew he was supposed to say ‘sorry.’ He knew he’d been unreasonable, weaponized all the horror of loss (John in his head, sight in his eyes) that soured the miracle of John’s body. All that came out was, “I thought you weren’t coming back this time.”

John snorted. 

Arthur had touched this new face before, felt the stubble, the enviably strong jaw, the full lips. He had glass in his hand and dared not touch now. “I told you I don’t need you.”

“You’ve said worse. Also, it was bullshit. Also, why the fuck do you have a dog?”

“His name is John,” said Arthur, “because you were gone.”

John sighed. The dog’s tag jingled. “I just… needed some air. And her name is Daisy, and she belongs to a neighbor.”

“Oh. I’m sorry.” Arthur was doing everything out of order.

“It’s been two godsdsmned weeks,” said John, who’d removed the glass and was wrapping Arthur’s bloodied finger. “Maybe give yourself a damn minute to get used to all this. Dumbass.”

Arthur sniffled. “You should be gone for good. I’m not any good to you like this.”

“Any good? What the fuck are you talking about? It was never about benefits or I would have left you in the prison pits.”

The walk had done John good. He was being all reasonable, and it cut the legs out from under Arthur’s fight. “I’m sorry.”

“Me, too. I keep pushing you. I know you don’t like to be pushed, but why the hell is there goose shit in the kitchen?”

“The door…”

A pause. “I left it open.”

“Yeah.”

The dog said, “Woof.”

“I’m still gonna make you learn the house,” John warned.

“I don’t want—"

“And how many steps to the store.”

“No!”

“And how to run the—"

“I said no, John!”

“Why the fuck not?”

The dog growled.

“Because I need you!” Arthur cried, voice cracking. “And it feels like you don’t want me to anymore!”

John sighed.

Arthur’s face burned.

“Come on, moron,” said John, pulling Arthur to his feet.

John was so big. “You’re too tall,” Arthur complained, leaning against that broad chest.

“Tell it to the committee,” said John, walking him back to their room. He got Arthur onto the bed. “Stay.”

“Fuck you.”

“Uh-huh.” John cleaned up the broken light bulb. There was silence, otherwise; the clinking of broken glass, the panting of the dog (who’d followed them), the brooding of Arthur Lester.

Arthur sniffled.

“I’m not leaving you,” said John, dumping the mess into an empty box.

“You should. I’m a burden.”

“You’re an ass. You’re not a burden.”

“All the more reason to go.”

John sighed and sat on the bed. His weight dipped it, and Arthur fell into him.

Neither moved to correct this.

“It wasn’t supposed to be like this,” Arthur whispered. “We did what he said. We got the damn stone. We broke the… the thing.”

“We sure did. And I got my body, as promised. And he let us go.”

Arthur turned his face, speaking into John’s shoulder. “I’m blind. I’m still blind, but I don’t have you to guide me.”

He hadn’t said that before. They hadn’t said. There was the ritual and Larson and the stone and Kayne, and then running and reclaiming his bank account and talking to police. There’d been no chance to say it all.

“I think it’s sort of what he said back in Carcosa,” John said softly. “What was it? ‘Only one walks away unscathed, and neither of you go home.’”

“We are home,” said Arthur defiantly.

“We’re making a new home. Not the same.” John lifted his arm to wrap it around Arthur’s shoulders.

Arthur leaned in, inhaling the smokiness, the Johnness, and thought, he is home. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be. We’ll figure it out. Like I said, I’m not leaving you.”

“You should.”

“No more of that, fuck.” John shifted, lifting Arthur as easily as he had the broken lamp, and lay beside him on the bare mattress. “Not leaving.”

“Okay.” Arthur couldn’t push back anymore.

The dog jumped onto the bed and lay across both their legs.

John laughed. “What the fuck? I’m gone half an hour, and you’ve trained some dog to come into our bed.”

“You were gone eighty years, and the dog is your replacement,” said Arthur.

John laughed and kissed his forehead. “Idiot.”

Arthur closed his useless eyes. He didn’t need them anymore. He felt safe. “I’m sorry.”

“Said that already. Lemme clean up, and we can have some damn lunch before I take the stupid dog home.”

“Not yet.” Arthur tightened his grip on John's torso.

“Not yet. Okay.” John sighed. “At least I didn’t come home to geese all over hell.”

“Do we have to give the dog back?”

“We have to give the dog back. I’ll get you another one. Maybe one of those fancy seeing-eye things.”

“You… you won’t…”

“I won’t leave, even if you can navigate the whole damn city without me. I’m not making myself obsolete, idiot. I’m taking care of you. Different.”

It was so stupid, but Arthur needed to hear those words. He exhaled, tension finally leaving him.

John brushed Arthur’s last tear away, his thumb rough and warm. “Shut up for a while.”

“Yeah. You, too. Jackass Doe.”

John laughed. “Jackass and Bullhead, private investigators.”

“It works.”

“Too stubborn to let your case go unsolved!” John said, having a great time.

“I love you,” said Arthur, who always did everything out of order.

“I love you, too,” said John, who was used to it. “Fucking snooze already so we can eat when you get up.”

“No,” said Arthur, and fell into a contented, healing doze.

[tonydaddingham]

hope you're good!!!✨ i did get your first one but no matter! very good thanks! you? oh well. i've lost a few emails to the connection in the last few days so i figured just in case.

also thank you re: the amv, haha!!! i ended up doing another using The Darkness, but your suggestion of using Original Sin is inspired, ive put it on the list!!! as for being on the nose... well, i did one to lewis capaldi's heavenly kind of state of mind, so make of that what you will! you're welcome! it really is fantastic! (as are your others; i'm looking forward to the abba one.) lol true about heavenly kind of state of mind and original sin is just such a good song.

i completely agree with your remarks on the implications of god... feels incongruous with other aspects of god's characterisation or indeed the theme of the story - to my interpretation, anyway. yes to this entire paragraph. absolutely celebrate everyone writing whatever they want and god getting increasingly frustrated as increasingly ludicrous fanfic like matchmaking schemes keep failing is potentially hilarious but in my opinion it doesn't work with god or the story at large for her to be involved in things.

i also love the metaphorical imagery, the poetry, of crowley being the question, and aziraphale being the answer (this sparks narrative analytical joy). oooo yes that is great imagery. i agree that free will has to be the plan and aziraphale and crowley do represent that in a way but i think that might be - from god's perspective not the authorial one - fairly coincidental. like it didn't have to specifically be those two? i don't know. i tend to consider god pretty much entirely a non entity as speculation goes. she narrates and that's it.

whilst that certainly speaks to me as being his behaviour, im not personally convinced that is his motive. i think the motive question might end up going round and round in circles once you start digging into it. where do we exactly put the line between 'god wants' and 'i want' to establish a starting point? i don't think he's trying to undermine her authority. i do think he's trying to take/has already taken over heaven but maybe he thinks that's what god would want him to do. she's not talking so he's just going to have to defer to his own judgement of what god's will is and his own desires are certainly influencing that judgement extensively. to what degree he's aware of this? tricky question if you ask me. i prefer him to be fully aware and nonetheless certain that he's doing the divinely approved good/right thing but that really is just personal preference and you do make a good case for the reverse. might just call it a mix of both and give up on the details before i accidentally talk myself into a paradox.

for me, it's the specific, simplified concept that moral absolutism doesn't exist. noone is completely evil, just as noone is wholly good. good point! this is why i agree that the metatron should think he's doing the right/good thing (even if he fulfills the function of the major villain). i guess i just feel like a bit more self awareness might give him more agency?

it would make sense, to me, for this to extend to metatron this whole paragraph also makes a very good point. i said above that he thinks he's doing the right/good thing but might it be more accurate that he believes he's doing the necessary thing? that he needs to put himself in power and do all these reprehensible things because it's the only way to preserve heaven and with it god's will and the concept of 'goodness'? that could open up a bunch of things around the end justifying the means.

i think both absolutely could be correct, a mix of them - for me, the former being personal against metatron's motive, and the latter against his character. don't have anything to add here i'm afraid; just wanted to say i like this a lot!

his questions, i think again for me it makes for a more compelling character arc that crowley has existed throughout his fall and being a demon as not getting any answers you're probably right here narratively speaking. i got attached to the whole serpent thematic but the more i think about it that does also work with just questions. the serpent only opens up the path to knowledge without directly partaking of it themself after all. and the wrong questions are still dangerous. maybe even more so than the answers.

albeit, i have a feeling that the answer will essentially be that there are no answers, and it's 'up to each of you to find your own ones' oh yeah. definitely.

thoughts [about the demons]? hmmm. i'm inclined to say seeing more demons asking questions is just because we're seeing more demons now. not to mention hastur and ligur were fairly major antagonists (and i'm not yet convinced hastur isn't coming back!). it's the same as muriel to me. just because heaven and hell are absolutely terrible it doesn't mean all angels and demons are so we're now getting nicer characters on both sides to show this and balance out each side's antagonists. as for why the short-staffing: i like the idea that demons are just defecting but i think maybe something's wrong in hell? shax tells crowley beelzebub 'put some of the lesser demons on half rations'. this is a new aka post armageddon development so presumably pre armageddon hell had enough resources for everyone to be getting full rations. now there's less demons around than before but less resources per demon. of course i'm assuming that the half rations is because of lack of resources and not some other reason like punishment but I don't think that's an unreasonable assumption to make: when eric keep interrupting to draw attention to the lack of demons he also points out that they won't be able to take the large transporter which seems like a resources issue as well. it's almost like something's draining hell. i haven't the foggiest how or what or why but i'm pretty sure it'll matter next season.

i meant 'conclusive' haha!!! ah ok. that makes a lot more sense then and in that case i agree. the archangels aren't innocent but they're not as bad as the metatron either.

but the bottom line - as i see it - for them is to preserve heaven. we can view their actions as deplorable, and that is true, but in their unique circumstances, what other action would, could, or should they have taken? i refer back to my thoughts above on moral absolutism and its place - if it has any - in GO and its characters. yep! it's very likely the archangels think what they're doing - including the things they do to maintain their power (and they infight and try to exercise power over each other but they always present a united front to other angels) - are necessary. though as i said in ny last ask i'm not sure that doesn't make them more dangerous. righteousness is, shall we say, not good.

re: memory of their time as angels, this is where i largely fluctuate on how much i subscribe to the memory wipe theory - but i don't think it's a full wipe, but potentially partial? oof. yeah there's something happening with memory but the details?

but i think perhaps that the memory wipe is attributable more to the BOL than to the metatron himself - i do think there's potentially a link between falling/erasure of grace and divinity, and to memories of being an angel gabriel though. he was going to have his memory erased - depending on whether putting it in the fly was just backup or full removal, did - while staying an angel. i feel like tht might counter the fall/memory loss connection.

as for demons not being aware of a wider issue, that's a fair point - but do demons really talk to each other? wouldn't that indicate a weakness, vulnerability? if there is a large-scale memory problem going on, which is a very tentative thought anyway, im not sure that any of the demons would in fact talk to others about it. true and why i didn't discount the collateral damage option after the first season. though if it happened to everyone it might have been acknowledged in company policy? just another part of falling. like i said i really think it might be something that happened only to crowley because of whatever specific role he played and not a large scale operation. if we can trust his drunken ramble he still remembers the act of falling itself just not what led up to it and that i would tentatively hazard the other demons do based on what we see and hear from them. p.s. this doesn't really properly fit into my speculation but i still wanted to say it: 'we are the fallen. never forget that.' 'it's not the kind of thing you forget.' gains a certain kind of irony if there's as many holes in crowley's memory as i suspect.

i have my #halo theory wherein i wonder if aziraphale was the specific angel to actually declare the war in heaven ok that is a very interesting idea for parallels and mirroring. first he declares the war in heaven, then he introduces war to humanity and finally he declares war in hell defending the bookshop in episode six. rule of three. *pauses* oh shit. and hereby i just found a narrative argument for having the scapegoat theory apply to both pre fall and present day crowley. awcw get scapegoated for the fall, the serpent of eden gets scapegoated for the fall of man and crowley gets scapegoated for whatever happens with the second coming/the still unresolved declaration of war on hell. rule of three. that of course would set them up for not only mirroring/paralleling their own story arcs but also as counterpoints to each other. ok this possibility fascinates me. might need to think on it more and then get back to you about it later! and then of course there's the characterisation element of carrying the weight of that kind of guilt around, which is plenty interesting in its own right, not to mention could add another layer to him accepting the metatron's offer.

i absolutely love your interpretation of crowley's inner conflict, i think that's so well put, and i like it a lot!!! i certainly don't think crowley is willfully ignorant or in denial of his potential part in his own - or the wider - fall, but perhaps just doesn't want to examine or confront it, as you said... or perhaps doesn't remember altogether, and has just cobbled together why he thinks he fell. firstly, thanks! i tend to the latter option, but think the internal conflict/fear of finding himself to be evil would work with either especially if we lean into the scapegoat theory which does also work with either.

but similarly, i think it's also fair to assess crowley as having some measure of the same mentality as he did before he fell; that he can be quite blinkered, self-assured, and at times quite arrogant. yep! though - without trying to excuse it away - i do wonder how much of it's also a defence mechanism at this point.

and please, please do not think im hating on him - critique of a character does not mean i dislike him or find him reprehensible, i promise; it's quite the opposite honestly!!! no worries, i absolutely do no think that! if that's how my p.s. came across i'm very sorry. absolutely not my intention. i enjoy your analyses so it was just a passing thought i had that it'd probably be interesting to see you discuss an aspect of the story and/or characters you don't talk about as much; i find it usually is when people do. (you can blame the history teacher i had in my last few years of school for that lol. she was big on that sort of thing and i guess it just stuck with me.)

the narrative would still hold and be profound if it were the other way around. just personally i like the idea of him being a heavenly Nobody to becoming a hellish Somebody is rather compelling!!!✨ fair enough. i think there's definitely great things you could do with either so i'm more than happy to just sit back and see where it'll go. 🦭

hey 🦭 anon, lovely!!!✨💕 two gorgeously long and complex asks (second under the cut) - gosh, where to start!!!

okay let's get cracking with the first!!!

the abba one has been placed on hold for the time being (inspiration did not vibe with me for it BUT another is in the works and is actually shaping up to be a Slap so stay tuned!!!)

i agree with you re: metatron, i think his motive is going to be somewhat cyclical, and mutually inclusive - to be motivated in what he determines as 'good' and as decreed by god by lack of any other instruction, and to be in his own selfish or narcissistic interests - can and i think probably will exist simultaneously.

i don't think he necessarily would be unaware of what he's doing, per se, but more that he's convinced that as the voice of god, whatever he thinks and does is sanctified as being god's will (because god hasnt told him otherwise) and is done in the name of preserving heaven - and, by extension, the balance of good and evil. therefore, of course, it must be inherently good.

personally, i don't believe that that would remove any agency from metatron (same as aziraphale who, for all of his questionable decisions, to my mind hasn't lacked agency), even if we would evaluate metatron's actions as being bad or wrong - to him, they truly wouldn't be... but like you said re: necessity, i think metatron would potentially see his actions as necessary, and what is necessary is to uphold the 'good'... so does it therefore remain up to everyone else whether those actions are right or wrong? yes, imo - but it's the context that's key.

i guess the closest i can liken metatron to as a 'villain' type character (and please, mea culpa, im not very imaginative) would be javert from les misérables. the law is created, in his eyes, to uphold justice (good); when that law is broken, he is compelled to mete out that justice (also good). it's not a perfect analogy, and obviously there is compelling context on valjean's part (his parolee papers for time served on a justifiable crime make it impossible for him to start a new life as a free man), but ultimately he broke his parole and the law, and javert, whilst operating in a broken system, is doing what he believes to be the good, right thing.

LOVE your thoughts around hell and the short-staffing/dwindling resource issue. i did some writing around shax a couple of days ago, so in hand with that I'll think on your points a little more, they're excellent ones!!!

re: fall/memory loss - possibly, but i personally don't think so. i did a little bit of speculation around the BOL and saraqael, especially in relation to the trial scene, a while ago - it's probably in my #book of life and #saraqael meta tags, if you wanted a peruse!!! but the batshit thought essentially was: what saraqael has access to, in that scene, was the BOL, and she operates it on behalf of metatron... and did during the fall, too.

re: crowley critique, no no it didn't come across like that at all!!! ive just unfortunately had asks previously where people have questioned whether or not i like him, because ive been quite heavily critical of him, and wondered if i find anything redeemable about him... suffice to say, i feel the need now to ensure that any readers do not think that i dislike him if i point out his more... questionable traits; i just find them way more interesting and compelling in a character than the good ones!!!💕

onto your second ask, and just to clarify - it wasn't my mum, unfortunately!!! (the most insight my mum ever gave on GO was this beauty -

- she gets it).

but regardless!!! first of all, LOVE your speculation and what you've thought out!!! i will honestly need to think on it more before i can come to any kind of conclusion, but i am - and i hope you don't mind - essentially going to use this as a scribble pad for some speculation. some of it is in direct relation to your spec, some is general to the fall/war, and some is just Stuff feeding into it... hope that's okay!!!

could totally see it happening - that AWCW fought on heaven's side, and was made to fall essentially at the last minute/unexpectedly for a reason he doesn't even really know, and had to rationalise after the fact

however, i think that removes, as we've batted back and forth already and in the bit above, a little bit of agency on AWCW's part. i don't think AWCW chose to fall, of course, but i do think that he asked questions/made decisions, and followed through on them/stood by them, that resulted in his becoming a demon, regardless of whether he fell or was pushed

agree that hell can't make angels fall; it doesn't make sense, and i refer back to my thoughts/theory on BOL on this

also hard-agree that, without the memory-wipe theory in play, it doesn't make any sense for AWCW to have answers to dangerous (?) questions, because of the risk he'd pose once fallen. it would make far more sense, like they planned with gabriel, to just simply wipe his memory and demote him to a lesser choir*. so i think that's where, personally, i simply do think that he just didn't get any answers at all

now this all could arguably skew the scapegoat theory, but not necessarily, because the idea that he could have been scapegoated by his own 'friends' still stands, imo

my conclusion at the moment, but it will still require more thought for definite, is that i don't think it will have been the case - i think in a way it would feel a little overcomplicated, and whilst devastating i think would erase some of crowley's accountability for his decisions... not necessarily bad decisions! but decisions nonetheless.

*this has just precipitated the unfortunate thought (unfortunate in that it's gone 1:30am and i need to sleep) that - well, what if that was what was meant to happen to crowley??? same as muriel (we speculate), and same as gabriel, he was initially intended to fall but to a lower rank, with no memories, and instead he legged it? like gabriel did? immediately i can think of multiple reasons as to why i don't think this was the case, but... still interesting to think about.

anyway! this response snowballed a bit and for that please have another apology dance 💃 but let me begin with, pure hypothesis, a rough sequence of events re: the fall:

> AWCW and aziraphale meet, he starts asking questions

> meets lucifer and co, AWCW falls in with their little group that does not consider it bad to ask questions, and maybe he reiterates his 'if i were in charge' thought because he feels comfortable to do so amongst them

> lucifer starts getting bolder, as do his closest cohort, about challenging god, and crowley gets swept up in it, or fully agrees with lucifer and actually fully supports him - and aziraphale knows none of this is going on/nothing about AWCW's association with them

> all comes to a head, god nopes out of the whole thing (free will argument), and when things can't be reconciled, war* is declared (👀 at aziraphale and his halo frisbee)

> war, etc., possible temporary ceasefire or lucifer concedes; all the rebels are brought for their Final Judgement before the metatron and the archangels etc

> lucifer implicates AWCW for leading him astray, that he was the one asking questions, and now lucifer has been corrupted or something, idk, but metatron decides all of them need to go - and yet perhaps a particularly harsh punishment is in fact due for AWCW (so yeah, actually, perhaps it is only crowley that doesnt fully remember heaven? that was his own personal punishment, to not remember parts of his time in heaven/the fall?*)

> initiate::Book Of Life Protocol

*now that im writing it out though, i do wonder if that makes sense, that the war would precede the fall...? i think it would, because it seems like the fallen would, well, fall, as punishment for rebellion, and then go off to plot their revenge etc in hell furfur confirms in ep4 that the war/"dubious battle" indeed came "just before" the fall!!! wahoo!!!

*the thing is... in leviticus, there were two goats - sacrificial goat, and the scapegoat. so this is where, i - in equal conviction which is, to say, shaky at best - also personally hold the thought that AWCW might never have been the scapegoat, and instead aziraphale* potentially was - leaving AWCW to be the sacrificial.

this last thought is slightly tangential, but stick with me:

*we know aziraphale was a cherub during the pre-fall scene, and in eden. that doesn't mean that he stayed a cherub in between these points

i recently added some ramblings to this meta on his ring, which i think is the hallmark of the archangel rank - and the fact he wears his on his opposite hand to the others, and constantly covers it, feels very indicative of some unseen backstory

it also feels that him being on earth is an ostracism, a roundabout punishment by way of being cast out but not falling...

and the thing is that genesis 3:24 (KJV) reads the following:

"So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life."

so if aziraphale, as a singular cherub, was placed in eden, it was after the fall of humanity, after original sin. we only see aziraphale arrive to give adam the sword as they were leaving, not beforehand. and after eden, it's suggested, he was demoted to principality (the angelology is debated i know but im sticking with christian/GO-confirmed combination angelology for the moment)

so it can't, to my mind, be because of the apple business that aziraphale was demoted - it's not as if he let the serpent in (if we follow genesis, he arguably wasnt even there at that point). it could be because he gave away his sword, but a) god knows and let him get away with it, and b) neither gabriel nor the quartermaster knew that he gave it away in s1

so what other reason could it have been? well, the only plausible reason i can think of is that it's because he didn't smite crawley when given the opportunity on the wall

others have debated whether or not it was aziraphale telling AWCW about the stars that led to AWCW's fall, and perhaps in point of fact it was... but im not certain that anyone would have known about it, other than them. maybe aziraphale refused to fight (after knowing that AWCW was amongst the other side?), he refused to wield his archangel power in some way (like gabriel refused?), or he actually defended AWCW (personal favourite)?

idk, but either way, whatever he did, he was punished for it with the demotion to cherub, and then demoted again to principality for not smiting the serpent of eden

instead of AWCW being the scapegoat for the fall, was he sacrificed as an example, to atone for fallen, and aziraphale was scapegoated to atone for the fall of humanity? had the blame of not destroying the serpent of eden placed upon him, and was cast into the wilderness (earth)?

i realise how ridiculous it all sounds, believe me, but my sleepiness is now officially winning so i shall leave it there (honestly 🦭 anon, im so sorry for the unrelated ramble, but it's actually so helpful for me to type this out, it helps with understanding what my own theories even are when i write other stuff... so thank you!!!)✨

[shehatescoffee]

heyyy, so i REALLY enjoy reading your works on ao3 (especially your current fic) and you’ve lowk inspired to me start writing my own fics

i js wanted to know if you had any tips for getting started, i’ve written short stories before but never anything worth posting online

thank you so much im so glad you're enjoying!! and wow that's honestly such a high compliment im blushing hard 😳😳😳

of course i can share some tips!! i wouldn't claim to be the be-all-end-all of writing fic, but im happy to talk about my own experiences! any other authors feel free to chime in in the replies as well.

the first thing i would say is your writing doesn't have to be "good" in the traditional sense. it's fanfiction, and all fanfic is good fanfic as long as you enjoy making it! so don't stress about putting out the perfect fic on your first try. i first started writing fic like ten years ago (and then stopped for like 7 yrs lol) and it was NOT good writing, by any means, but i enjoyed doing it! remembering that enjoyment is what made me start writing again :)

the next thing i would say is that it's okay to take time to develop your "style". if you want to start off writing 1k oneshots just to dip your toes into the characters or world before committing to a longfic (if you want to make one), then that's perfect. this goes for structure, length, whatever. i wrote half of No Scrubs on a plane bc the song was stuck in my head, and i did the 5+1 structure because it was the easiest for me to organize my thoughts/plot. then, when i got more comfortable with the world and characters, i moved more into my own style with Dive In!

next is to not put any expectations on your work other than that it should make you happy. depending on the fandom and because of how ao3 works if you'rewriting on ao3 (not an algorithm), it could take a while for anyone to find and interact with your fic. thats why it's so important you write what YOU wanna read, and what YOU enjoy. i go back and self indulgently read my own fics because i basically wrote them for myself lol.

also, more tangibly, i think the best way to get into writing consistently is by setting small, nonserious goals for yourself, like "hit 1k words" or "post 3 fics" or "post a new chapter once a month" or something like that. that way, when you reach that goal you've sort of built your own system of fulfillment that isn't reliant on anyone else. and since these are minor, self set goals, you can adjust them as needed! this wont work for everyone, especially if deadlines are stressful for you, but i personally find them very helpful and motivating! (also keep in mind that just because someone else is posting on a certain schedule, doesn't mean you have to do the same. im subscribed to some fics with very consistent, frequent updates, and others where i wait months or even years between chapters, but theres room for both!)

i could list a dozen more but my final one is to be active in the fandom community! fanfic is a gift you are giving, and if you want appreciation for that gift then it helps if you are also appreciative of other authors by commenting, kudosing, reblogging their posts, whatever you want. i LOVE talking to other authors and gushing about their fics, and it helps make a good community that will uplift each other and their works :). basically, fandom is give and take, and you dont want to always be giving or always be taking (thats how fandom dies) so be proactive about building your community :)

if you want more specific tips on anything, like editing or plotting or dialogue or whatever, im happy to yap some more!! thanks for the kind ask and best of luck on your fic writing journey <3 🥰

1,3,5,6,8,22,25

sorry I know it’s a lot 😭

Hello again! It is a lot, but don't apologize! I'm up for it!

1.) Why do you like or dislike this character?

I honestly don't know where to start. I love her character development, her relationship with Luz, how much of her arc revolves around change and growth and rebuilding your life in a way that works for you. That last one especially.

Change and character development isn't something rare in The Owl House, but Amity's example is one of the biggest. She's all about breaking free and most of all rebuilding and burning bridges. Amity yearns for genuine connection and is willing to put in the work for it. Whether that means experiencing and expressing all the guilt and remorse that comes with reconnecting with Willow and working to get better or cutting her toxic mother out of her life for good.

3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?

....Is it bad that I can't really think of anything? I mean other than the fact that I'm not a big fan of her mean girl persona I don't really know what to say. Maybe also the fact that except for Luz and a little bit Willow, we don't see much of Amity's dynamic with the rest of the Hexsquad, but I am mainly blaming Disney's shortening for this (screw you disney once again!)

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

Other than Little Miss Perfect? 😂

I'd say One by Sleeping at Last. That song just fits her so well. The light graceful music that starts kinda fast and as the song progresses slows down, and the lyrics! Holy crap the lyrics!

"🎶I want to feel the transformation

The melody of reformation🎶"

"🎶Now I have learned my lesson

The price of this so-called perfection is everything

I spent my whole life searching desperately🎶"

Tell me those don't scream Amity Blight! (And they are just a sample!)

6. What's something you have in common with this character?

Amity is actually one of the characters in this show I relate to the most. I used to be a top student myself, and her line "I have been working my while life to get to the top!" still hits me hard. But what makes me relate the most to her is her relationship with her dad. Her trying to connect him and struggling to even when there is some common ground between them, mainly due to him being dismissive, too caught up in his own interest/work and thinking he always knows best, it's an almost perfect reflection to my relationship with my dad. That aspect of her character made me feel so seen and honestly a little bit jealous, seeing them have a better relationship as the show goes on (even if it's not much, screw disney again...).

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

When people reduce her to Luz's girlfriend and nothing more. I mean I love tomato Amity as much as everyone, her love for Luz is really adorable and I love their relationship, but that is only a part of her character!

22. If you're a fic reader, what's something you like in fics when it comes to ths character? Something you don't like?

Stuff I like: Seeing more of her relationships with other characters (I'm especially fond of her and Hunter, they are besties to me), her and Luz being adorable and I also love works that explore her family life.

Stuff I don't like: Silly miscommunication, especially when it is with her and Luz (they are better than this) and what I answered in the previous question.

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

I honestly thought she was just gonna be an antagonist, a rival and character foil for Luz. As I was watching more of the show, I was certain she'd get some character growth and be friends with Luz and the gang, but didn't expect lumity to actually be canon! I was so pleasantly surprised!

Now I think she is one of the best characters in the show and in general!
