[koka-mi]

I've wanted to post a video of me playing im@s shiny festa for a while!

Next Life was and still is my favorite song to play funky note so here's some gameplay of me playing it on master :3

[velteris]

I’ve seen a fair amount of posts complaining about this arc in Frieren and… we are all entitled to our own opinions etc which is why I will be launching into a Defense of Frieren’s Exam Arc :) Keeping it manga spoiler free since it seems like most of these complaints are from anime-only viewers.

For me the main draw of this arc is the world building. We’ve spent all this time with Frieren and Fern as our main perspectives on magic. Because it’s Frieren, the magics we’ve been hearing about have mostly been a little silly and sweet. But now we’re finding out that 1) “mage” is largely still a combat designation, and 2) Frieren and Fern are actually incredibly jack-of-all-trades when it comes to their magic repertoire. The “magic is visualisation” part is starting to be really leant into and we’re seeing more humans as well who seem to specialise in one magic (steel flowers, rocks, clones, ice and water…) It’s cool!! It’s objectively cool! I love being able to see this range that we wouldn’t have had otherwise! Also it’s fucking fantastic to see how much of a BEAST Fern really is when compared to other human mages. And she doesn’t even seem that aware of it.

Coupled with that is being able to see different people’s philosophies toward magic. I think a lot of viewers are kind of down about the sudden huge influx of side characters who they don’t really care about. But these philosophies—Land’s maximum wait-and-watch, Wirbel and Ubel’s vastly different approaches to killing—keep expanding the world and highlighting Frieren and Fern’s own perspectives. It’s soooo good seeing them react to situations not of their own making and people not of their own kind.

We get to see human society that isn’t a village in the middle of nowhere! We get to see Frieren being forced to socialise! We get to see Fern away from her emotional support elf! We get to see how society has changed since the demon king was defeated! I love that Himmel and co ushered in an era of peace, which it is, and yet the world is still full of conflicts. Truly the story continues after the hero is finished.

To address a few specific complaints I’ve seen brought up:

Frieren isn’t about all these nonstop shounen fights.

Agreed! Which is why it’s cool as hell that Frieren’s main badass shounen strategy is “sit very still for 10 hours”. That aside? There actually hasn’t been much actual fighting. You could probably count up the minutes in which actual spells are being cast and it’ll be something like 2 minutes max in the latest ep20. And that’s because it’s not about who beats who, it’s about the philosophies, the worldbuilding, the ways of thinking about magic. This is not a power-measuring contest, much as Genau would like to make it. And the random lucky draw-ness of the Stilles only plays further into that. It is possible to pass this exam without coming into conflict with others, and certainly without battles to the death. It hasn’t ever been about the shounen fights.

The good part of the show was about the delicate melancholy and that’s totally missing here.

I agree that it’s one of the strong points. But the thing with the melancholy is that it only works when juxtaposed against other moments. A story that’s composed of a bunch of unlinked wistful slice-of-life episodes will eventually fall apart because it has no momentum, no driving force. And ten years to Ende is too long to go without at least some conflict. Also, again, ten-hour bird meditation session?

Anyway, there’s melancholy, but how sad it would be if there was nothing but introspection and wistfulness. Frieren is bringing the memories of Himmel forward with her into the future. That means she has to be moving forward, forging new relationships with unrelated people, going into situations that she hasn’t been in before. A Frieren stuck in the past would be against the themes of the show, of remembering and yet moving on.

Why should I care about them spending ages trying to catch a bird?

You don’t like Stille? 🐤 fweet?

Actually I care lots about this funky thing. Indestructible and goes supersonic fast. That’s fucking hilarious. Bird that simply cannot be contained. Genau is a dick for setting up this kind of exam when, Your Honour, my client Stille does not deserve to be imprisoned.

Too many irrelevant side characters who it’s hard to care about, and they’re gonna be thrown away at the end anyway.

Again, it’s the worldbuilding. And also, mild spoilers for stuff that won’t be covered in the anime, but at least one of these side characters does come back and we get more delicious main character development as a result. Though frankly many of these characters are deeply compelling and interesting to me so I don’t rly get this complaint. Give me more Lawine.

Where’s Himmel? What do these exams have to do with the hero party? Frieren is good because of the links to the past.

Frieren is good because of the links to the past, which affect how Frieren responds to the present. The whole point of Frieren is that Frieren’s life continues. And through her new experiences, she comes to understand and reconnect to the emotions she didn’t realise she felt about her past. I don’t care what Himmel would think of the mage exams, I care what Frieren thinks of them now. And the answer is that she doesn’t really give a damn but she’s in here anyway because Fern strongarmed her into it, and then she was forced to adopt two more kids along the way, and all of that is something she never would have done if she was still hermiting in the Central Lands. Somehow we are still getting Himmel flashbacks anyway? So? He’s still haunting the narrative guys. Just because Frieren isn’t saying “that’s what Hero Himmel would do” out loud in these circumstances doesn’t mean his ghost isn’t here.

Even so, Frieren clearly recognises the name Serie. Do not fear. There is going to be more about links to the past.

I miss Stark.

Fair enough. It’s okay, he’s just on vacation rn. Having an appy juice.

It’s taking too long. The arc is too slow.

It’s only been three episodes… I’ve seen people going “it’s already been three episodes!” but what? Really? Is that considered an excessive amount of time now?? Given the amount of story covered I think it’s quite reasonable? There’s still 8 episodes to go in which we cover the remaining exam stages. Have some patience like Frieren. The payoffs are being set up; they’ll resolve before the end of the mage exam arc. In the meantime, let’s enjoy theorising about the soft magic system and hollering for full auto Fern.

Celebrity Crush Pt.2

Pairing: Jenna Ortega x Reader

Requested: Yes/No

Summary: Still in disbelief that Jenna asked them on a date, Y/n tries to make the most of living her dream, including going on a date with her dream girl. (y/f/o = your favourite outfit) ~ Word Count: 1.859k ~ Warnings: pure fluffff

A/N: Hi!! It’s here everybodyyyyy! I tried to make it as good as possible seeing how much you guys loved pt1 and begged for pt2. Hopefully I did it justice and you enjoy this one just as much or more than the first <3

Part 1 ~ Part 2

The day had arrived. Tonight you were going on a date with THE Jenna Ortega. Your celebrity crush, whom you had been swooning over for years, had asked you out on a date. Despite having days for it to sink in, you don’t think it ever will.

'What is my life?' you wondered as you awoke, lying flat on your back, staring at the ceiling, still in complete disbelief that this is happening to you. Shaking yourself awake, you roll over to your bedside table to check your phone, where you immediately notice another message from Jenna.

Jenna

“Morning sleepyhead”

“Still up for tonight I’m hoping?”

Since she first messaged you a few days ago, you and her have been talking nonstop. The two of you had an irrefutable connection. You had talked about almost everything under the sun and yet the conversation never got dry or ceased. There was obviously a bit of teasing from Jenna about your tweets, however it just opened up the opportunity for you to flirt - which you certainly weren’t complaining about.

Y/n

“Morning cutieee”

“Of course I am I wouldn’t miss it for the world”

Jenna

“I’ll see you at 6 then <3”

Before you knew it the clock struck 5, and it was time to get ready. You hop into the shower, your playlist playing over your speakers, to freshen up and hopefully relieve some of your nerves. As the warm water cascades your body and down the drain, you insecurities are drowned with it.

You walked to your closet after exiting the shower, quickly drying your hair and wrapping yourself in a towel. You've never felt so much pressure whilst choosing an outfit. You needed an outfit that was perfect for a first impression, but as you looked through your closet, you weren't overwhelmed by options. “Ok so… effort but not too much effort, colour but no too much colour, casual yet fancy, masculine yet feminine… easy” you sighed as you began pulling out various items of clothing and laying them out on your bed.

You eventually settled on y/f/o, with some light makeup and your hair out and styled like you do day-to-day, not wanting to appear desperate to impress - although you definitely were. With one final look in the mirror, you grabbed your keys and headphones, threw on a jacket, and walked out the door. Checking your phone as you made you way onto the street for the brisk 10 minute walk to the restaurant, the time read 5:50. ‘Perfect’ you thought, not wanting to arrive too early or too late. Everything had to be perfect.

With your on-repeat playlist playing softly in your ears as you walk along the illuminated streets, despite your first date nerves, you can’t help but smile giddily as each step carries you closer and closer to finally meeting the girl of your dreams. As the restaurant comes into view, you slow down your pace as you once again pull out your phone. ‘5:59’. With a deep breath, you cross the road, putting away your headphones as you approach the glass door. Opening the door, you exchange pleasantries with the staff at the door as you scan the restaurant in search of a particular brunette. When your e/c eyes finally land on her figure, she was wearing this outfit, and you have to stop your jaw from dropping to the floor as your eyes widened at her beauty.

Originally looking at her phone, she must have noticed the time as her head picks up and her eyes travel towards the entrance, towards you. Her eyes light up as they meet yours, butterflies erupting in your stomach as her lips curve into a smile. Your smile matches hers as you walk towards the table, as you do so, she places her phone in her blazer pocket and stands up.

“Hi!” you smile brightly, embracing her in a long awaited hug despite your mixture of excitement and nerves, a hug she instantly reciprocates. “Hi! How are you?!? You look amazing by the way” she returns as she pulls out of the embrace, both of you taking your seats. “Oh stop it have you looked in a mirror recently?” your compliment causing her cheeks to brighten slightly, “I’ve never been better. I still feel like I’m dreaming. Both about this” you gesture between the two of you, “and all the press and attention, its insane” you chuckle as you just admire her for a moment, the corners of your lips gently upturned. “How about you?” “I’m good. I mean it’s been a stressful week. I had some long and tiring days on set, but I have to say this is definitely a highlight. You are definitely the highlight of my week” she gently smiles at you, warmth spreading across your cheeks as she flatters you.

Thankfully your embarrassment was saved by the waiter coming to your table, giving you the opportunity to compose yourself whilst Jenna was distracted. If she was going to keep flustering you this easily you were going to need a few drinks. You both ordered and the conversation flowed. As cheesy as it sounds to say, it feels like you have known Jenna for ages. Was that possibly due to the fact that you have been one of her biggest fans for the past few years… maybe, but the connection between the two of you was still undeniable.

Throughout dinner, you find yourself drifting between states of pure joy, and of pure disbelief. Your eyes were essentially glued to Jenna, captivated by her beauty and how, despite being in the spotlight for so many years, she has managed to maintain her humanity, and is just as sweet, and as caring as she appears on screen. Never in your life did you picture yourself here, essentially living your dream. You had your dream job, which allowed you to meet incredible people and travel to incredible places, and you were on a date with your dream girlfriend. You have no idea what you did to deserve this, but there is nothing you wouldn’t do to preserve it.

Which is why, after dinner, you refused to let your night end there. “I’m going to be completely honest with you, I don’t want tonight to end yet. Like I refuse.” her eyes softened at your statement, “What do you say to going on a walk? I know a cute park not too far from here?” Her eyes seem to study you for a moment, almost admiring you - again how is this happening? you have no idea. “I’d love to.” she replied softly. “Perfect”.

After paying the bill, the two of you got up from your seats and headed to the door, thanking the staff along the way. You made sure to walk ahead to hold the door open for her as she exited, receiving an adoring smile for your efforts. “M’lady” you joked, bowing as she walked out laughing with you following swiftly on her tail. Walking out together, you are met with the bitter cold of the night air, the gentle gusts of wind rustling the trees that line the streets. “This way. It’s not too far” you explain, gesturing in the direction of the park, one you often went to when you needed a moment of solitude.

The night had mellowed out as you walked to the park, entertained by relaxed chatter and simply basking in each others presence. Somewhere along the way, Jenna had slipped her hand into yours, your fingers interlocking intimately. The moment you felt her touch, a warmth spread throughout your chest as your lips broke into a giddy smile. Once again you found yourself in a state of pure disbelief. You would think that at this point it would have sunk in, yet how anyone could ever get used to living their dream you would never understand. How Jenna Ortega picked you, of all people, to ask out on a date, you would never understand.

As you approach the park, your thumb brushing over her knuckles, you guide her towards your favourite spot. Walking through the quiet park, although almost eerie, brings you an incredible sense of calmness as you walk through the all too familiar paths. You eventually lead Jenna towards a large tree that overlooks a quiet lake. It was on a bench under said tree that you often spent your afternoons, sat listening to music and trying to escape from the world.

You give Jenna’s hand a reassuring squeeze as you lead her over to said bench, hoping it would also offer her the feeling of tranquility it so often offered you. As you sit on the bench, looking out onto the dimly lit lake, the wind and leaves playing a sweet melody above your heads, you feel calm. Noticing Jennas slight shivering next to you, you are quick to take off your jacket and wrap it around her shoulders, earning an appreciative smile from the girl. “It’s beautiful” she whispers, her attention directed to the lake in-front of her, the reflection of the dim park lights reflecting off of it’s calm surface. “Yeah it is” you reply just as faintly.

Except you weren’t talking about the lake. Or the park. The only thing you could focus on, was her. Sat next to you with your jacket wrapped around her shoulders, the faint lights reflecting off her features perfectly, looking ethereal against the dull glow. Eventually noticing your gaze, she turns her head to look at you, her brown eyes meeting your e/c ones. Your admiration for her must have been obvious as her face softens, her eyes even glancing towards your lips. “Did you mean it?” she asks in a faint whisper. “Did I mean what?” “The tweets. Did you mean them?” your lips twitch into a slight smile at the mention of your tweets, the very things that brought you to this moment. “Every single word” you confess.

Now it was your turn to glance at her lips, watching as she subtly catches her bottom lip between her teeth. Even in the faint light, her face still glowed as you admired it, adjusting yourself as you slowly begun to close the distance. With one last hesitant look at her eyes, which were still locked on your lips, you brought your hands up, resting them on her cheeks, and leaned in, connecting your lips in a slow, gentle kiss. Jenna sighs softly as her hands wrap delicately around your neck. At first tentative, you begin to move your lips against hers. As she reciprocates, it feels like the world has stopped. You forget everything. You experience real peace. You feel nothing but her. You just want the time to stop. In that moment, you feel almost certain that you must be dreaming.

As you part, breathless, your lips, which already ache at the lack of her warmth, crack into a smile as your eyes meet hers once again. “Come back to mine?” you question hesitantly with a chuckle, watching as her smile grows as she grabs ahold of your hands. “I’d like that”

Ironically, after taking me out of years of kdrama slump, Lovely Runner is going to leave me with a worse slump sniff. This might even surpass any romance kdrama I've watched before as it's focused on the romance first and it didn't go off the rails on the 2nd half. Ryu Sun Jae, pls take responsibility, chuseyo.

Guys I'm still so not over it. As part of "Kidnap Sun Jae and Run" Addicts Anonymous, let me help you cope through this 10 step program:

1. Play OST nonstop

"I Think I Did" and "Sonaki" will definitely be 'memories embedded in my soul' for playing the OST nonstop from when I wake up until I sleep.

It's going to be a tragedy if Byeon Woo Seok doesn't sing any of these live on his upcoming fanmeets. Pls pls pls k-ent gods.

2. Rewatch from the start

Undoubtedly one of my comfort watches from now on. I knew it was going to be good when near end of ep 1, Younha's iconic "Umbrella" song started playing, Sun Jae was walking towards a crying Sol, held the blue umbrella to shield her while he's getting rained on. Aww. I'm so soft for these scenes. (Deja vu to Bogum's MDBC anyone?)

3. If time is limited, watch the last 10 mins of every ep where writer-nim always saves the fireworks till the end!

In ep 2, the OG "I Think I Did" started playing, where a smiling Sol held the yellow umbrella to Sun Jae, and he hopelessly fell for her, is now going down as one of the most iconic scenes in kdrama romance. I'm usually not a fan of instacrush. But their relationship naturally developed more when they got close, during that stretch of Sun Jae's swimming injury plot.

4. For masochists like me, rewatch all the times Sol rejects Sun Jae. Ugh it hurts, but it hurts so good. A lot of rejections, but these 2 scenes...

In ep 9, when college Sol drunkenly curses Sun Jae as "pabo" for always going back to her, when she just keeps on hurting him. But he can't help himself. Sniff.

In ep 12, the setup before that train scene, where Sol asks Sun Jae not to cry when she leaves him to go back to the future. Then cut to next day on the train when she tricks Sun Jae and leaves him alone on the train, and of course Sun Jae can't keep his promise and his tears fall. Simply drama magic.

5. Rewatch the kissing scenes!

Sadly, nothing quite matched that ep 8, very hooot kiss between the 2 now adult Sun Jae and Sol. Sol discovers Sun Jae still pines for her all these years, and Sol finally admitting to him about her true feelings, the pent up feelings for 15 years in that kiss...,whew (fans self)!

6. Rewatch all my fave scenes!

That cherry blossom proposal scene is one of the most beautifully shot ones I've ever seen, glad he axed the first one lol. And a picture of the future wedding scene though imaginary for now! It's our reward for suffering for 15 eps lol.

7. Read and like all LR related posts, bts, stills, fanart.

You know it's a hit when fanart is everywhere, and I can change to a new Sun Jae-Sol wallpaper everyday and bask on the gorgeousness of BWS .

By the way, that latest clip of the live watch with the cast and where BWS is crying in gratitude sniff. He knows his life is also changed forever by this drama. Deserving! I was always intrigued by BWS's looks before, and he really surprised me with his acting, he also has great comedic timing!

It's just rare nowadays that the drama has the whole package, I love the cast and their characters too.

8. Read and like all posts related to BWS and KHY, and the cast.

Kim Hye Yoon poured her heart out on this drama, she really carried it.

I didn't get to talk about the rest of the cast yet. At first, I was getting used to some of the 'over the top' comedy, but by that condom confusion scene, I was laughing too. I love that all of the cast is just going for it even if it's bonkers crazy. But my fave has to be adult celeb Sun Jae's assistant who has this hilarious deadpan face and delivery of lines, and always has that 'tsk tsk what a loser' look of scorn towards Sun Jae, when his boss is at his most embarassing lovesick self mwahah.

9. Recommend LR to every unsuspecting person, let's spread the addiction, and destroy their lives too lol!

10. If still not recovered, go back to step 1! Good luck!

Modern Hearts Chapter 10

Chapter 9 here

******

You and Mic hailed a car, and began your descent downtown to the bar.  During the ride, you learned that he has a radio show called "Put Your Hands Up Radio" where he played nonstop music on Friday nights.  Tonight, obviously, he pre recorded his show so he could attend tonight's outing.  Mic had a fascinating persona, and you couldn't help but feel comfortable when you were around him.  He continued to talk more about his radio show, when the car pulled up in front of the bar.  You both paid the driver, got out of the car, and made your way inside.

The atmosphere inside of the bar was very dark and mysterious; you liked it.  It was absolutely packed in there, too, so you and Mic began walking around to see if anyone from your group was there yet.  You both walked around for several minutes until you found Nemuri sitting in a booth by herself; she waved over to the both of you to get your attention.  You slid into the booth, one of you on either side of Nemuri.  "Toshinori and Shouta running late?" you asked. "Ah, as it turns out, Toshinori isn't coming.  Which is fine, he can't drink anyway. I don't know where Shouta's at, hopefully he's on his way" she responded.

Mic stood up and said the first round was on him; he grabbed your orders and went over to the bar to grab the bartender's attention.  Before Mic came back, Shouta made his way to your booth, mumbling something about having to break up a fight between two students, which is why he was late.  "No worries, Eraser!" said Nemuri.  You smiled up at him, "hello, Shouta. I'm just happy you made it.  Mic is up the bar ordering our drinks if you want to grab a drink while he's up there."  Shouta took your advice and went up to the bar and stood next to Mic, who was still waiting for the bartender.

You took this opportunity to get a good look at Shouta; he was in all black, naturally.  He wasn't in his pro-hero gear tonight, though.  He had his ebony hair pulled back into a low ponytail, he was wearing a fitting v-neck long sleeve shirt, black jeans, and black boots.  He looked good.  Nemuri noticed you staring, and nudged you on the arm.  "Ohhh, someone has a crush!" she exclaimed.  You were glad it was dark in the bar because she couldn't see the blush creeping up on your face.  "No no, it's nothing like that," you responded, "it's just strange to see him as an adult now after knowing him as a child."  Nemuri just looked at you knowingly, saying, "okay, whatever you say, Y/N."

The conversation between you and Nemuri ended as quickly as it started as Mic and Shouta came back to the booth at that time.  Mic ordered some sort of girly-looking drink for himself. "What! It tastes good! Who cares how it looks?"  Shouta ordered himself a glass of whiskey on the rocks, and you and Nemuri both ordered glasses of white wine. Shouta sat down on the other side of Mic, so the order was Shouta, Mic, Nemuri and you.  Mic raised up his drink first and toasted, "to Y/N!  We're so happy to have you on our team!"  You all raised your glasses in return and cheered.  You couldn't help but smile; you felt like you were where you belonged.

The conversation and drinks flowed easily that night.  You were all progressively getting drunker as the night went on, and at that point, even Shouta seemed to be having a good time, grinning once in a while at something you said, or rolling his eyes at Mic for a silly joke he said.  You talked to them about life in America, and how their culture was so different than here in Japan.  Nemuri asked if you regret your decision at all, moving back to Japan.  You looked at her thoughtfully for a moment, "I don't.  America was great and all, and I made some good friends while I was there, but Japan is home to me."  Nemuri just smiled at you in response, "well, I think I speak for all of us when I say that we're happy you came here."

You were telling them more about America when suddenly, two men approached your table.  One of the men was very tall and muscular, had crimson colored hair, and a scar going down the left side of his face.  The other man was shorter, looked younger, had golden-brown hair, but perhaps his most noticeable feature were his stunning red wings. The taller man said, "well, if it isn't Eraserhead, Present Mic, and Midnight. Getting a little drunk tonight, are we?"  Mic was the first to speak up, "what's up, Endeavor, Hawks? What are you guys doing here?"  "Nevermind that," said who you assumed was 'Hawks', "who is this lovely lady you have with you tonight?" he asked as he sat down next to you.  He was close, and you could see his beautiful golden brown eyes.

Nemuri spoke up this time, saying "Endeavor, Hawks, this is Y/N, she is the new librarian at the high school.  Y/N, this is Endeavor, or Enji Todoroki.  And the man sitting next to you is Hawks, or Keigo Takami."  Keigo took your hand in his, and placed a gentle kiss on the top of your hand.  Wow, this guy was smooth, and he knew it.  "It's a pleasure to meet you, Enji and Keigo," you finally said.  Keigo immediately spoke up, saying, "trust me, the pleasure is all mine."  You felt your cheeks getting hot, this guy really was smooth.  You don't know why you did it, but you quickly glanced over at Shouta, who was frowning down at his empty drink.  "I think I need another drink," he said grumpily before getting up and leaving the booth.

ᴅᴀᴄʀʏᴘʜɪʟɪᴀ

Park Sungho 🎃 afab!Reader

Warning; NONCON; stalking; Perv!sungho; threat; thigh fucking

English is not my first language, so there may be some grammar errors

Sungho had his quirks, his unconventional methods of convincing you of things and in this world he was never used to receiving a no, when you rejected him so eagerly for the first time, or when you crossed the street to not meet him head on, All of this was kept fondly in the back of his memory, like a gift box, far from him being a bad person, but you seemed to be asking for this type of attitude from him at every moment.

It was to be expected. All the desperation, all the weirdness, and the insatiable feeling of consuming his entire being. That was how Sungho invaded your house through the window, who entered your room while you were sleeping and crept to your side, his icy, nimble fingers removing your clothes and before he could accomplish what he wanted, he woke you up without wanting to, but without giving you time to say nothing.

His hand was firm against your mouth, terror ran through your body, you felt like you were naked from the waist down and his black eyes made strong eye contact with you, making you tremble in the deepest fear.

"Shh, you don't want to fight, I could kill you" he said with a simplicity that tickled your stomach, the tone of his voice was low and you felt the firmness in which he held you, there wasn't much to fight, you were Alone at home, he knew that. With that, tears appear in your eyes, beginning to flow in abundance, out of pure despair, making his dick throb inside his pants "Oh don't cry, I promise I won't be too rude"

He said, taking his hand between your legs, playing with your button to circle, so delicately, parting your lips and playing with your intimacy.

"You know, y/n, many times I considered just leaving it alone, but you were so persistent in denying me, that I thought it would be a good incentive" he commented, still playing with his fingers around all your intimacy, tears running through your eyes and your body slowly starting to react to his touch. Hearing you mumble, he subtly takes his hand away from your mouth.

"Please….don't do anything…I b-beg" you are in tears, while he smiles as if you were the most adorable figure that ever existed, his fingers running along the top of your cheeks, drying your tears that wouldn't stop coming out.

"Don't worry darling, I'm not going to fuck you...not yet, this is something I'll wait for you to beg for it" sungho firmly grabbed the arm around your waist and held you "now you're going to be obedient and leave your legs Well closed, huh?

You felt the danger flowing, even if he wasn't armed you knew you wouldn't be able to escape him, crying in resistance, also in giving up, you closed your eyes when you felt his dick fit between your legs, until he started fucking your thighs .

"So hot" he sighed and began to place kisses on your jaw, not waiting for any reaction from you, he was going slowly between your legs, and in moments he began to mark your skin, biting and sucking, moaning while you cried nonstop.

"Are you going to stop being such a slut and stop whining or am I going to have to shut you up?" He asked in a low, light tone, your sobs were loud, and in fear you kept your tone low, even though it felt impossible to stop. Sungho increased the rhythm against your thighs, making impact noises against your skin, trembling, feeling all the pleasure in the world, your aching body and your wet pussy receiving all the stimulation he did, occasionally making you moan involuntarily in the middle of crying upon contact.

He was extremely hard, feeling numb from the contact, fucking your legs like a desperate man and then he finally came, leaving you completely smeared, and then a delicate kiss on your jaw.

"I...I feel like our relationship has everything to grow, y/n, I love you"

top 5 burn characters go

Good gods Anon this is evil. Only five!??? 😭💕

I spent like three days trying to make up my mind on this, and I'm still not satisfied, but as of the moment, in no particular order:

The Best Boys

Mr. William Guppy of Kenge & Carboy, Bleak House

He's awkward, he's manipulative, he has no real social skills to speak of, and he's in love. I actually really disliked this character when I first read the book circa 2011, but as Burn seems wont to do, I ended up being completely won over in the end. ^_^; His Guppy is expressive, less a comic relief and almost sympathetic. I mentioned in a conversation with @synthapostate about how Guppy is technically an antagonist, but he's played in such a way that you really can't see it (unlike the book). Also the camera is half in love with Burn this entire series, and it makes it very, very easy to fall in love with this dorky, curly-haired puppy of a man.

Dr. Hermann Gottlieb, Pacific Rim & Pacific Rim: Uprising

I could write sonnets about Hermann for how much I've come to love him. 😅 He's one of the Characters of All Time for me. From his passion, his stubborn resilience, and his sharp humor, to his unwavering loyalty for those he cares for and his ability to care so deeply, how could I not irrevocably fall for him? (Also singlehandedly the cause of the 2023 Burn Binge.) Hermann found his way into my heart from the very beginning, but I never realized how at home he had made himself until the day I turned around and he was patiently waiting for me to see him. I think I fell for him and Newt in the same fell swoop, and my love for both of them is unwavering.

Dr. Owen Harper, Torchwood

I've been in love with this bastard since 2013; I've been repressing that adoration for 10 years. I- I don't really remember the exact moment that my opinion of Owen shifted from extreme dislike to him carving a permanent place in my very being, but there it is. He's sarcastic, an incorrigible flirt, and has one of the biggest, kindest hearts I've ever come across in fiction. At the time, I was pre-Med, and I aspired to be half as compassionate a doctor as him. After Exit Wounds, I gave up Torchwood (I couldn't, not with Tosh gone too.), but I've slowly been dipping my toes back in via Burn's reading of some of the books & the Big Finish audios. It's been 10 years, yet I think I'm more in love with this bastard than I ever was before. (And okay, I admit, he might be my favorite-favorite ^_^;)

Sgt. Detective William Blore, And Then There Were None

Bill, Bill, Bill... He's a crooked cop, he's tired of everyone's nonsense, he's filled with regret, he's probably gay. Detective Blore is yet another classic lit character that I first met back in the late 20-aughts, early 2010s who I really didn't care for. Then 2023 rolls around, and not only did I come to love him in this adaptation, but I've ended up going on an Agatha Christie bender because of it. Burn made me... well love would be too strong a word, but I definitely rank Blore as "a poor little meow meow."

Major Edmund Hewlett, TURN

How could this list be at all complete without including my beloved major? (Just picking a gif for this made me realise how badly I've missed him. 🥺) Edmund is... How do I explain how much I adore this guy? How do I possibly pin down the levels of pride I have in his journey, in his growth, explain the way my heart aches at the twists and turns that will tear him apart and build him back even stronger? How do I possibly do justice in conveying how damn aspirational he is, how merciful, how delightful? I can't, really. He's a force of nature that one must experience for themselves. (And I need to resume my rewatch methinks~)

Runner-Ups

(or the characters who have been spinning in my brain nonstop like rotisserie chickens and absolutely deserve mention)

Ben Jarvis, Cheat

I... I have entire essays I want to write about this guy. I have theories I want to discuss, but as most of them are... I can't. Yet. Maybe soon? I- Anyway. Ben was a huge surprise, and definitely nowhere close to what I was expecting when I finally got around to watching this show. I would be lying to say it wasn't a pleasant surprise, and I absolutely love how Burn was able to do a lot of solo work this series, with a lot of focus on body language and his uncanny knack for killer expressions.

Jacko Argyle, Ordeal By Innocence

This... This beautiful little shit ♡ One of the first Burn movies I actively chose to seek out, my second in his Agatha Christie adaptations, and my first dive into gif making. And Jacko-! Oh, Jacko... You stole my heart then broke it in only a few, few precious moments of screentime and backstory. He haunts the entire film, he haunts me still, and I'm so glad I had the chance to meet him.

Martin, Up There

(Oh look yet another one of my gifs 😅)

Martin is absolutely one of my favourite characters, especially for his absolute growth during the film. He crawls out of his downward spiral, he finds himself again, and ultimately discovers that there can be life after death. He just- He's grumpy, he's beautifully sarcastic, he's depressed, he's loved, and he just- Seriously I love him. Martin feels like a friend who I haven't seen in an age, and it's always a good day to bump into him again.

Reverend Benedict Marley, Lark Rise to Candleford

I almost forgot my favourite clergyman??? D:

Benedict Marley came into my life just to shake my very foundations, send me on an existential journey of self discovery, and waited for me at the end of it all with a soft smile and encouraging words. He only had one episode in the show, but his story was so easily woven and understood, his humility humbled me, and in ways that make me almost afraid to admit aloud- I felt seen in a way that I ever so rarely am. I connected to him; I understand him. He has depths that I could hardly explain in a single paragraph, but I can say that- out of all these characters- my feelings are birthed more out of a very deep respect and admiration.

I can't say this list will stay the same- I'm far from through with Burn's portfolio- but for his on-screen roles, these guys firmly remain top-tier for me. :)

(If you'd like to hear about his voice work instead, please let me know; I could go on for Hours about some of those lads. ♡)

Thanks for the ask Anon, and if you haven't seen any of these yet, I definitely recommend them!

Thoughts While Watching Gilmore Girls, Season 2, Episode 15, Part 2 (Lost and Found, Aka The One Where Rory Loses Dean's Shitty Bracelet)

Part 1 and all previous commentary here. I should start renaming these things "Gilmore Girls 10 Minutes At A Time" because right now that's about all I can get through per day before Lorelai has me grinding my teeth into a fine powder. Luke and Jess are checking out some houses because Luke is totally going to move out to a new house in the middle of season 2. Luke and Jess have looked at about a half dozen apartments and they squabble over minor imperfections of each one, whether it be pink paint on the walls or an excess amount of windows. To both Jess and Luke: I would implore you both to be a little less stubborn and just take anything with two bedrooms. Your lives will drastically improve with any two bedroom apartment. Better yet, keep turning down every apartment in Stars Hollow until you've reached the next town. Continue this process until you're both living in another state completely. Jess eventually whatevers- I dont cares- you pick the place out of the situation because he's due at Lorelai's in 20 minutes to get treated like used gum on the bottom of her shoe and get paid in stale jelly beans. And we get a SadBaby™ quote.

Let's play another game of "What the hell is that: early 2000's gadget edition"

What the hell is that? VHS rewinder thingymabob.

Oh. It's just a clock. A clock that plays cds and makes barnyard noises. Would you look at that. Another one of my favorite mini games to play while watching gilmore girls is "Determining how an object is going to be integral to the plot of the episode". This is Gilmore GIrls so we are seeing this clock for a reason. This clock won't just show up and disappear with no further explanation. It always means something. Please say Lorelai hides her squealing State of the Art CD player pig clock when Jess arrives because she thinks he is going to steal it. PLEASE. I promise it's been long enough since I've seen the show that I don't know if that actually happens but I put nothing past her. Nothing. Let's take a break to Admire The Baby:

Although he may flake out on dates with Rory and skip school, our little Employee of the Month is always on time for work.

Narrator: He would not be getting his own room.

#AdmireTheBaby #Quick #BeforeLorelaiShowsUp

Narrator: Lorelai Gilmore did not find Jess Mariano's arrival to be all that terrific.

Nevermind moving down the street in Stars Hollow, he's hoping for that Male Gilmore Characters California Wormhole to suck him up and transport him to the opposite end of the country to get away from this hell. He still has to suffer for another season and a half before that'll happen. Jess is this emoji: 😐

Narrator: She was not trying. Rory gives Jess the ol Razzle Dazzle: "Why don't you talk more?" or more precisely "Why don't you talk around my mother"?

Why is Jess supposed to trust and adore and respect this random woman he doesn't know, who he sees pawing at his uncle he also doesn't know, a random strange woman who is very transparent in her feelings about him, who is transparently suspicious of him for no reason, someone so full of shit that he can see right through her when no one else can or will admit to it. WHAT I'M GETTING AT IT IS: Is he supposed to be happy to be in her presence or something? Why should he have anything to say? He's only doing this because of a rock solid work ethic, and I’d say because he hopes to earn some money. But I’d hate to dash poor Baby’s hopes about making any money and inform him that his uncle and his uncle’s weird friend agreed he could be paid subpar wages.

I think everyone in Stars Hollow is two faced anyway. They act like they like her but you know Patty and Babette talk shit nonstop about Lorelai when she's not around. Kinda like me.

Honey, you can just keep your pretty little mouth quiet around her and let me do all the shit talking.

Why? Even Rory is still more or less a stranger to him at this point, an acquaintance or loose friend at best (we know this because minutes earlier, Lorelai had Lorelai Thoughts about Rory saying Jess was a casual friend). Why does he have to please her mom? Rory says she went out on a limb to try to convince her mother that Jess was a good person. This is true. But why is she even wasting her breath trying to convince Lorelai when her mother clearly refuses to listen. It’s a hopeless endeavor. Jess does not even owe Lorelai the time of day so stop asking him to be nice to her.

#AdmireTheBaby Rory: It wouldn't hurt you to be nice to my mom. Jess: Why? Rory: Because she's my mom and a friend of Luke's. Jess: So? Just because she's your Mom or Luke's friend doesn't mean I automatically have to get along with her. Thank you for doing the work for me, babes. Mwah.

Fixed it with some flawless editing. Rory: If you care about me at all you'll be mildly polite to my mother.

GOT HER! :) #SharpAsATack

Mmm. Do go on.

I just skipped ahead to see what was happening at the 20 minute mark and it's Dean and I can't complain because yesterday I was literally begging for him to show up to divert the plot away from Lorelai even for a minute. Thank you Dean. Thank you. I am eagerly anticipating your whining and sulking at the book fair.

#AdmireTheBaby

We have been blessed with another Milo Ventimiglia Okuh. An okuh is like a soothing balm that makes everything better.

#AdmireTheBaby.

YAYYYY ITS DEAN! HOORAY FOR DEAN! DEAN DEAN DEAN DEAN.

Taylor's back on his bullshit I see. What are we raising money for, err should I say what cause is Taylor stealing money from? Please tell me it's the Bridge so I can divert my Lorelai Rage into Bridge Rage and Dean Rage. I'm a bit delirious right now. Amy Sherman Palladino: This character Dean likes to read books. No, sports. No, books again. No, he rides a motorcycle. Wait, books again. Softball? Dean hates to read. HOCKEY. Here is Dean early in season 1 contrasted with Dean halfway into season 2 (still wearing that smelly leather coat too):

I am particularly delighted whenever the 3 Dean Forrester fans in existence try to use Dean telling Rory "I watched you browse for books for two hours" as an example of his devotion to Rory. As you can see by this display of unbridled enthusiasm, he clearly wants to be here with her. When Rory disputes that it’s been that long and feels guilty for boring him, he shows her his watch to prove to her its been two hours. Dean Forrester is a stale chicken nugget that's been laying on the floor for 4 days. You know what would make everyone happy? Jess and Dean switching places. Dean could go over to Lorelai's and spend some time "cleaning her gutters" and Jess and Rory could enjoy the book fair. God, in what universe is it fucking fair that DEAN is the one who gets to accompany Rory to a book sale and he just acts like a miserable turd. While Jess is missing the book fair to work for Lorelai? UGH. I hear Rory's voice screaming "WHAT'S UP QUIPPY! WHY SO SILENT!" at Paris but my inner monologue is screaming "WHAT'S UP AMY! WHY COULDN'T JESS GO TO THE BOOK FAIR? HUH? WHY SO SILENT?! AMY!" Literally the only thing to ever happen in Stars Hollow that he would enjoy and voluntarily attend and instead he's slopping some bitch's gutters. I maxed out my 30 screen shots and I can't delete any of Baby so this three ring shit circus will spill into a part 3. See ya soon.

[mikasa-imadebiscults]

Hiii,I hope you’re doing well today! If your match-ups are still open,I’d like to request one. If it’s not too much to ask,could I request a JJK + Demon Slayer + AOT matchup? If not,just JJK + Demon Slayer is fine! Thank you in advance.

• About me:

Appearance-wise,I have a pale skin tone and rosy cheeks (people always assume I’m blushing when really it’s just how my face naturally looks 🥲) I have medium length wavy brunette hair,greenish eyes and I’m 5’5 but am a bit on the chubbier side. When it comes to fashion,I personally love to wear anything that is cozy yet cute! Occasionally I’ll wear something that is considered “fashionable” if I really feel like it. Personality-wise,I am an ISFJ and a Hufflepuff with my zodiac sign being Cancer. I have a rather shy and hushed personality at first,wanting to be polite and friendly enough while still maintaining some distance. If you’re able to get to know me more however,I’ll begin to break out of my shell,just enough to be noticeable. For an example,I’ll become less shy and awkward about things and more so comfortable enough to act more like myself. If we’re close friends,I can be: talkative,friendly,passionate,loyal,supportive,funny,and maybe even a little bit teasing! I tend to be the friend that people go to for advice,because I’m quite nonjudgmental and can take on a more mature mindset when being asked to share my thoughts on something. Despite my nonjudgmental nature,I can be honest and blunt about things if need be,because I’d rather be the kind of friend that is 100% real with you and tells you what you need to hear rather than what you’d want to hear. On the more negative side to my personality,I’m overly emotional and prone to taking things too personally. I’m also a huge over-thinker,getting overly anxious about things without giving myself the time to think or relax for a second. I’m a natural perfectionist and a people pleaser that tries to avoid confrontation as much as possible,and I struggle with self-confidence myself as well. I have a low social battery and tend to exhaust myself from being around people for a long time period,which makes me prefer hanging out with people one-on-one instead of in groups. I don’t like to be in large crowds either,it overwhelms me when things get too loud and crowded.

• Likes:

Video games,animanga,food,music,shopping,cute aesthetics,sleeping,TV shows or movies,writing,reading,photography,baking,and animals!

•Dislikes:

Weather that is too hot or too cold,loud or abrupt noises,insects,when things are disorganized,rude and disrespectful behavior…

• Love language:

Quality time and words of affirmation (with a sprinkle of physical touch on my behalf)

—

By the way,I would prefer an adult male matchup. And I apologize if I included too much text,but thank you again and have a great day. Take care! ❤️

(HELLO, DON’T WORRY IT’S NOT TOO MUCH TEXT. I HOPE YOU LIKE THIS AND TAKE CARE TOO!!)

I match you with..

- Words of affirmation is his specialty. If you’re ever feeling down, upset, angry, frustrated, or discouraged about something, he’ll be there to reassure you no matter what the problem is.

- If you two are at a party he always keeps an eye on you and scan to see any little signs of discomfort on you.

- He helps you organize things whenever stuff gets super unorganized.

- There’s a photo album that he made that has lots of pictures of you and him together.

- If you’re having a bad day he’ll cook you some of your favorite meals.

Giyuu Tomioka

- He loves it when you talk to him, he enjoys your company and he’s glad that you’re here with him.

- He wants to know more about your interests so he asks for manga and anime recommendations so he can watch it and talk to you about it without being confused.

- He loves listening to you talk about your interests with such passion.

- Often times you two will just sit on the couch and watch your favorite shows while eating food.

- One time the both of you fell asleep listening to music in your room.

- Whenever there’s a loud and abrupt noise he always turns to look at you to make sure that you’re okay.

- He kills bugs for you so you won’t get grossed out or scared.

- Sometimes on a rare occasion he smiles at your jokes.

- He can relate to the low social battery so he understands when you’re feeling exhausted from all the socializing of the day.

SPOILERS IN THIS POST FOR THE GAME CYBERPUNK 2077 AND IT'S ANIMATED SERIES EDGERUNNERS

Ok so I heard I Really Want to Stay at Your House from Cyberpunk Edgerunners on Tiktok before I even watched the series. I liked it so much that I downloaded it to my Spotify favorites.

This weekend I watched Edgerunners. When that song played in the last episode I was DEVASTATED. LITERALLY. I cried so hard the last 10 minutes like just full on sobbing.

Since then I have listened to this song nonstop and I kid you not today when I took the bus home I ALMOST TEARED UP BECAUSE FUCK MY LIFE, THIS SERIES MESSED ME UP BAD.

"You're not special."

This message rings in my head when I think of Edgerunners and it's fucking with me. Because I know this feeling. This sentiment of "oh no, I'm different, I'm not gonna do x or get addicted to y." And then BAM.

Turns out you are doing x already and got addicted to y.

Just like David Legend Martinez. My man didn't get the happy ending he deserved. Neither did any of the characters.

This whole show punched me in the gut and left me in the gutter (haha wordplay) and I dunno if I ever recover.

I'm probably over emotional because of other real life stuff but when I tell you I stayed up all Sunday night to read fanfiction to find some comfort, I'm not lying.

It's funny because I'm writing and reading x reader stories to portray myself as special. Whether that be for someone specific or the whole world. I need that feeling of "oh, I'm important to someone, I'm special and not completely worthless."

That's why I like most stories with an overpowered reader (as long as Y/N suffers a helluva lot as well but what that actually means for my psyche should be left in pandora's box) because I need to be special at least in my imagination. Edgerunners really opened my eyes in that regard. I knew immediately from the moment when Maine went down the cyberpsycho route that David would end up dead like him and yet I still hoped he would overcome it. He's the main character, he can't die like that. He won't, he's special!

Haha yeah nope.

The show really made me realize why I always want my y/ns to be jedi shadows, witchers, dragons, zombies, siths etc. and why I prefer these types of fantasy related backgrounds over coffee shop AUs and other real life stories and I dunno what to do with this information.

Doubled with me accidentally spoiling some of the endings of Cyberpunk 2077, I'm emotionally at my end.

I watched a youtube video about the ending where V decides to unalive himself/herself instead of dealing with whatever shitshow is going on (I have yet to play the game, I'm literally still at the beginning because I couldn't recover from Jackie's death haha🥲) and I didn't need that in my life. I'm too busy to cry about fictional characters but I guess this is my punishment for being emotionally attached to FICTIONAL CHARACTERS GOD FUCKING DAMMIT-

The Traumatic Past of The Solace Brothers

Tw: Child Neglect, abuse, bullying, happy life turn into a nightmare, murder of their mother, attempted murder, run away from home.

AN: This is Lysander's POV

"I thought we had a perfect life. However I was wrong."

Isidore and I came from a big family of 10, three brothers, three sisters, mother, father..and me and Isidore. I was one of the oldest siblings and yet only Isidore and 4 others trusted me while the others..they just brushed me off as the child with no emotions. My mother is nice while my father is a man who had time for the others but not me and Isidore. It does hurt when time goes by, it does not hurt anymore. I still have my siblings but I never let Isidore out of my life..I can not. And I never knew why. I had a deeper bond with Isidore than anyone in my family. My mother..she was kind, gentle and charming. She made a lot of friends and nobody hated her. My father..he is ruthless, stern and strict. He has very few close friends and he gets jealous very easily. Day by Day, I noticed that my mother and father argue constantly in the living room. My father accused my mother of cheating again. This is never new to any of us since my mother is very loyal to him and him alone. 

But..I noticed that Isidore and I were abused by my father and most of our siblings for defending our mother. The abuse is not bad at first then slowly it gets worse until one of us nearly dies by the abuse. I was disappointed and I rebelled against my father’s wishes to be just like him. And I got into arguments with my father way more than any of my siblings. One night, my father attacked me but lucky Isidore screamed before he murdered me. I still have those stitches to this day. My mother takes the abuse from her husband and children for us..she never wanted us to be hurt like she did. Isidore and I cried to her whenever we saw her bleeding but she comforted us saying that we are her children..none of our siblings is worth her time and effort. It seems they are dead to her but she still stayed for me and Isidore.

The arguments got worse..there are sounds of our father throwing things and yelling at my mother along with my siblings. I grew to despise my father and siblings as Isidore grew more violent with his words and attacks. Life at home was normal here..until..THEY killed her..my mother with blunt force trauma. I was numb..Isidore was numb. Everyone was numb. We all started to notice the atmosphere in the house turning..dull and still. One of my older sisters rushed towards our parents’ room and came back reading my mother’s diary out loud, revealing that our mother is loyal this whole time..and she has a life of being a nanny, a baby sister and a waitress. We all just stood there while we all processed the information. My father and my siblings look at us..then worsen the abuse. I..had enough..WE had enough..we want them gone. GONE from our lives. We grabbed the money from the safe in the basement when everyone was asleep and ran away together. We both used our skills in our abusive household to be where we are right now. My name is Lysander Solace, the head leader of a secret organization. The older brother of Isidore Solace. The follower of Jasper, The Aeon of Dreams. Let me ask you something: Would you tell anyone about the past of Isidore and I? 

Little notes of Lysander and Isidore: Lysander was forced to play the piano by their father nonstop until he had to go to the hospital. Isidore has a bloodthirty side after they both witness the mother was killed in front of them. A trigger that unfortunately happen.

AN: I chose the song Phantom Pain because it reminds me of how the Solace brother's mother protected them until her demise. This song is damn sad and I cried 6 times because of this.

nine (9) people you'd like to know better

I got tagged by the wonderful @five4boarding and tumblr never gives me a little +1 notification icon when I get tagged in anything (like any other type of note would, so I don’t get it!!), so I live in fear that I’m always gonna miss these BUT I caught this one at least 👉😎👉

Last song: during my morning walk I randomly remembered the catchiest depression bop and then remembered the first time I looked up the guy's wiki and saw that he played hockey and I was like you're telling me a knife-footed ice-gremlin sang this???? (swiss juniors but still high level for his age bracket I think?) Anyway... Tomorrow May Not Be Better (specifically this version https://open.spotify.com/track/0V1quXmlVC6eH5kcfYPWEW ) by Bastian Baker still slaps to this very day 😌👌

Currently watching: My longstanding guilty pleasure is docs/commentary videos about any and all scams, particularly mlms/pyramid schemes. So it should come as no surprise that my brand new guilty pleasure is debt confessions/financial audits on youtube 🙈 I've been been watching a few by caleb hammer whose gimmick is that he gordon ramsey style shames people who come in with their financial records and he's like hey. why do you have $120,000 in consumer debt? why did you finance an ipad for your literal infant child?? why have you spent 30 dollars multiple times a day every day at dunkin for the last 3 months??? (the last one is an exaggeration but the first two I have seen LOL). His thumbnails are wretched I hate them so, so much, and his advice of living spartan-like for a few years to dig yourself out of the hole is ehhh maybe good in theory but generally not exactly...practical. And I think going cold turkey when you're used to constant impulse buying is basically a recipe for just eventually losing control and going on a bender. But. I'm nosy and love hearing about how people be spending their money so that's the best part of the videos for me lol

Currently reading: haven't picked up something new yet BUT I juuuust finished An Unauthorised Fan Treatise which was SO GOOD I literally slammed it nonstop for two days until I finished it. It's formatted like a rpf conspiracy theory livejournal where a fangirl of a supernatural-drama show compiles evidence that the two lead actors are secretly dating. BUT it's noted that the livejournal has been submitted as evidence into for a murder trial so y'know TWISTS AND TURNS lol. There's just something about the format that really compels me, idk I already love reading primers and conspiracies for hrpf couples that I literally have zero investment in and never will- I just enjoy the way the girlies spin a good narrative. (and also watching video essays about the uhhh less casual to super trainwreck ones like the whole larry fiasco even though I never got into 1D, as well as general fandom fiascos like msscribe and snapewives etc etc IT'S ALL SO FASCINATING TO ME 🍿👀) So it was a really natural fit for me to read in a fictional setting. And it's free to read! https://gottiewrites.com/2019/10/14/31/

Current obsession: I’m a hobbyist game maker so at all times I am rotating little bits of character development, experimental mechanics, aesthetics, ui design etc etc in my brain but it becomes much more mentally consuming during the off-season bc god knows when bruins hockey is live it is Featured Live 24/7 In My Brain. But for now... my OCs on my mind 😌💭

tagging (if you want to): OH NO I’M SO BASHFUL I NEVER KNOW WHO TO TAG IN THESE 🫣🫣🫣 uh uh uhh maybe @ghostgeno @alavenderleaf @tylerbertuzzi @reavenedges-lies @krugstrash if y’all are so inclined?? but also no pressure no pressure again I’m just NOSY hehe

rating 'fantasies' songs by their tlt vibes

recently i got really into this album and ive been listening to it nonstop and i got the urge to make this post so behold.

Help I'm Alive

we open with a BANGER. the whole heart motif beauty of existence thing is very tlt in general but "if we're still alive my regrets are few/if my life is mine what shouldnt i do" feels like it could be ntn cam+pal perhaps. 6/10 for general vibes not really going anywhere specific tho.

Sick Muse

i could see this as a convo between gideon and harrow. "pull your little arrows out an let me live my life" she WOULD say that about love... ily harrowhark necro'mancer nonagesimus lyctorway keep sticking your middle finger up at preps. but the main event is "all the blondes are fantasies/we looked at them eleven ways/you said look at me then looked away" like i dont even need to explain this one. YOU SAID LOOK AT ME THEN LOOKED AWAY the orpheus and eurydice the betrayal the hurt why wont you eat me please please consume me why are you saving me sorry one sec. ill shut up about greek myths now. 7.5/10 that one lyric saved it for me

Satellite Mind

this song is so strange and offputting it has to be about our favourite little bone nun <3 its givin htn harrow "i can feel you most when im alone" um the body the body the body "flashback of a feeling/sixth sense of a calling" its the love! that they couldnt take away!! 6/10 because i think that the dreamy freaky what the fuck is happening are suuuuper htn however the actual lyrics arent super close

Gold Guns Girls

i want this song to be about ianthe tridentarius soooooo bad... i want it to be about our favourite perpetually thirdweeling failgirl so much... like ive never wanted anything else ever oh my GOD... "i remember when you were gambling to win/everybody else said better luck next time" underestimated at canaan house anyone? anyone at all? no takers?? no??? 3/10 because despite my deepest wishes this is just a good song thats not about gay catholic homestuck 😔

Gimme Sympathy

slightly ironic gtn griddlehawk at its finest. "get hot/get too close to the flames" oops! now ur her cavalier "wild open space" gideon-gettin-shocked-by-days-on-earth-emotional.png "talk like an open book" not with that vow of silence. idiot. "sign me up!" shes not signed up haha "ill remember someday all the chances we took" not after the lobotomy u wont lol "we're so close to something better left unknown" cough cough LYCTORHOOD. 9/10 manifesting kiriona giving harrow sympathy after all of this is gone in alecto

Collect Call

hiii ntn fans i prommy i didn’t forget abt u! this one goes out to the psychosexual mess of role playing and bad meals enjoyers <3 "i know it's a lie i want it to be true/the rest of the rot is riding on you" oh boy like i said psychosexual mess... pyrra dve my beloved "wishing you could KEEP! ME! CLOSER! IM A LAZY! DANCER! WHEN YOU MOVE! I! MOVE WITH YOUOOOOOOOOO" oh lord nona placing her hand on cam's shoulder like palamedes would. oh lord being so close in one body and yet a second apart. 8/10 should be higher but i started Having Feelings about nona's death again and couldnt finish listening to the song

Front Row

this is a john song if I’ve ever heard one. “burnt out stars they shine so bright… all of us” is def. giving lyctor vibes. (just children playing with reflections thinking they were stars grauauauagh etc etc) plus plus “he’s not perfect/he’s a victim/of his occupation/social insulation/secret intervention” like fuck dude he really is!!! pilot that president around ordinary dude fuck the world up with your good intentions!!! 10/10 this song is the brainrot undying the kindly prince of my lyctor brainrot

Blindness

besties ngl i am INCREDIBLY torn on this one,,, on one hand “what it is and where it stops nobody knows/you gave me a life i never chose/i wanna leave but the world wont let me go” goes crazy hard. like harrowhark ‘cursed to keep living’ nonagesimus? hello is that u? on the other hand the whole opening sequence of this is very blood of eden coded… 5/10 this song has a very Character Energy about it but i think i must accept that that character is probably not a tlt one

Stadium Love

ohohohoo! here she comes!! this song IS about canaan house like the whole thing n nothing will convince me otherwise. "wanna make a deal/angel versus eel" hm im getting gideighth betrayal vibes from this "rabbit versus dove" WHAT DID I SAY colum get back here your government assigned fursona is in the song "owl versus dove" uuuuuh this can be about the sixth being cool basically whenever because sixth -> wisdom -> athena -> owl. idc that they live on mercury fuck off. the blorbos may be smart but i dont have to be. btw camilla hect if you read this im free on thursday night and would like to hang out plz respond and then hang out with me on thursday night when im free. u can bring your necromancer too if yw. "every living thing pushed into the ring" duel time every (necro)man(cer) for himself "guess you thought you could just watch" go on enforce that cohort order judith! it wont backfire at all haha! "NO. ONES. GETTING. OUT" well. uh. none of them are. plus cant you just see the Character Portrait Flashes AMV Moments to the wooowooos?? cant you??? "without STADIUM LOVE" the last time they say this w the beat drop it should be gidedeath cytherea duel epic timez and then the echoing "love love" at the end is harrow waking up and mouthing The Three Syllables TM. 11/10 somebody lend me their animation skills please i would be sooo epic and responsible with them i have a Vison...

in conclusion thx for listening to my deranged ramblings (if anyone actually does.) please go listen to fantasies its so so good... message me and we can brainrot thru it together xoxo

Plok Goes So Hard Feel Free To Like And RePlok If You Agree

My Spotify Wrapped is fucking weird and like kinda accurate but also like not at all but like 2/3rds of the music I listen to isn't on Spotify anyways so like it kinda makes sense why it's not completely accurate but also like????

But like yeah this one makes perfect sense this is one of the non-weird ones, the only weird part of this is that number is way too low, I 100% listened to it more than 147 times, just most of that probably wasn't on Spotify. I listened to this on loop every day for like 2 months straight earlier this year, it was like actually a problem so like yea this is definitely my most listened to song this year.

But like, most of the rest of my top 10, uhh no??? cringe??? wuh??? guh??? The Time Has Come makes sense too tho like no complaints for the top 2, I think it's funny when it says "the time has come and so have I" and that line alone means it deserves to be at least top 2. Number 3 is like by far the most confusing on this entire list of 100 songs (you don't get to see 11-100 that would require too many screenshots and also nobody is allowed to see where Team Chaotix is on the list (the answer is it's somehow not in the top 100, and that's really embarrassing)). Vigilante is like near the very bottom of my tier list of Hiroyuki Sawano songs, like it's still good, but like, it's nowhere near #3 good, I feel like I skip it half the time it plays too so like I have no clue how it's as high as it is. Like if literally any other song composed by that guy was at #3 I wouldn't be surprised at all, but I guess I just don't listen to any of those enough on Spotify.😔 4 makes sense, Amatsu Kaze is definitely the FFXIV song that's on Spotify that I listen to the most, idk if it's my number 1 favorite, but definitely what I listen to most often. Unfortunately neither Dedicated To Moonlight, nor Athena The Tireless One are on Spotify yet otherwise at least one, if not both would probably be in this spot instead. 5 is also weird as fuck, like I love this song, world.execute(me) is definitely one of my favorite Mili songs, but I feel like it's more of a 2022 song, I feel like I've listened to sustain++ way more this year. Although I guess I do listen to it a lot more off Spotify than on Spotify so I guess it kinda makes sense but still like, I think sustain++ should be here instead. Masterpiece? more like, yea this song is a masterpiece. Yea this is one of my favorite songs of all time I've been listening to this consistently since like 2011 and I still listen to it enough to be in the top 10, really any Toaru song being super high makes sense, this is definitely my favorite one tho. This one kinda sorta makes sense, like yea I definitely do listen to Violence a lot, and it's probably my 2nd favorite Chainsaw Man song, but I think I like Chainsaw Blood a bit more, and I thought I listened to it pretty much equally, yet it's way lower down the list. Tbh I'm kinda surprised Calling for Rain isn't slightly higher, like this is another one that I listened to nonstop on loop for like an entire month, I'm satisfied that it's here though, acceptable placement. Yea Gravitation is another Toaru song, any Toaru song being high will never be a surprise, the only consistency in life is that 10 years from now I'll still be listening to Index openings and Sonic the Hedgehog music. Yea No Buts! is another Toaru song. I like how the first 10 seconds sounds like I broke into a bank and am about to die :)

I lied this is fun so I'm gonna keep going here's 11-20 :)

11. THIS SONG RELEASED LESS THAN A FUCKING MONTH AGO WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME HOW IS IT SO HIGH I like the line where it says "how many liters can you bleed" because I too like the metric system and also blood. 12. Slightly surprising this is so high, I'm glad it is, one of my favorite songs for sure but like, didn't realize I still listened to it often enough to make top 20, very cool. What if Meguca and Hameru kis 13. Ok I know why this one is as high as it is because I couldn't find most Ali Project songs on Spotify until like 3 months ago, but like, this is probably in my top 5 least favorite, and also least listened to Ali Project songs so it DOES NOT deserve to be this high but also I couldn't find any of the cooler songs until recently so ;-; 14. I hate that this is probably my favorite Inabakumori song because listening to it makes me so depressed because I associate it with being depressed as fuck but like, I like it :) 15. How the FUCK is this one higher than Guitar, Loneliness and Blue Planet, I DON'T EVEN LIKE THIS ONE THAT MUCH, ok I mean it's still pretty good but like it's no Masterpiece. 16. Yea this one's pretty good I'm okay with this Hiroyuki Sawano song being this high, still not as good as like Club Ki3e, or Here I Am, or Brave the Ocean, or like a bunch of his other songs, but I do still feel like I listen to it a lot, DEFINITELY MORE THAN VIGILANTE, FUCK YOU VIGILANTE I HATE YOU, I FUCKING HATE YOU!!! 17. sigh this one's okay I do like this one, but still definitely not peak Ali Project, but like, I like it more than the last one at least so that's cool! 18. YEAAAAAA SONIC WOOOOOOOOOOO fucking took long enough. Idk if this is necessarily my favorite Sonic song this year, and if I included non-Spotify listens it definitely wouldn't be my most listened to, but like it's probably like top 10 Sonic songs of all time so honestly the real issue here is that it's not way higher. 19. WOOOOOOOO YEAAAAAAA THE COOLER BOCCHI SONG YEAAAAAAA this should be higher 100%, I do listen to it more frequently outside of Spotify so I get why it's not in like the top 10, but if this was counting all of the music I've listened to on all platforms over the last year, this would easily be in the top 10, I listen to this constantly. 20. I'm very surprised this one isn't higher, I feel like I listen to it a lot, and it's the only x0o0x_ song on Spotify that I really like. I definitely like their cover of Big Brother more, but unfortunately Spotify doesn't think that song exists, it also doesn't think 2/3rds of the music I actually listen to exists so I think Spotify is kinda dumb and stupid and stupid.

ONE MORE ROUND! ONE MORE ROUND!!

21. This is pretty much exactly where I would expect this one to be, like yea I listen to Kick Back a lot, but like, not constantly and I feel like I probably listen to Chainsaw Blood more oftenTHERE IT IS THERE IT IS IT'S RIGHT THERE AT NUMBER 30 WHY IS IT SO LOW! 22. I think this may actually be my least favorite of the Drakengard 3 vocal songs, like it's still good I still enjoy it a lot, but like why is this the only one on Spotify??? But like yeah Black Song White Scales is definitely probably the best one I don't have hot takes. 23. WOOOOOOO YEAAAAA this is definitely my favorite Inabakumori song that doesn't make me depressed af, wish it was higher Rainy Boots is kinda like the anti-depression song. 24. Shut up, shut the fuck up it's good I don't care I will kill you shut up now. 25. It's so sad that this is the lowest Toaru song on here, this is like my 3rd favorite one yet it's this far down, this is so sad, I'm licherally going to move onto the next song. 26. If I had used Spotify in 2020 this would've probably been my most listened to song that year, and it probably would've still been in the top 5 in 2021, so good to know that maybe by 2030 it'll finally be outside of my top 100. But like yeah Reol kinda pog and this is definitely my favorite song of her's, should've been higher. 27. This one is so odd, because it is entirely not my normal style of music, yet I still like it for some reason and clearly still listen to it a lot and I have no clue why I like it because I really shouldn't. I think it may literally just be because it's from a game that I like because I also like almost the entire Madworld OST and that's all the same type of music. 28. UMINEKO YEAAAA UMINEKO WOOOOOO FINALLY YEAAAA unfortunately Occultics no Majo isn't on spotify otherwise it would easily, and permanently be in the top 10 and also would've been for the last 3 years, but like this one's still really good, it's an alright consolation prize, but nothing can compete with peak, it's truly so unfair. Very surprised that Kina no Kaori ~ Ai no Shiren isn't higher tho, like I don't think it's even in the top 100, but I do definitely listen to it way more off Spotify so I guess I probably shouldn't be too surprised. Not enough Umineko representation on this list, next year I need to make sure to exclusively listen to M. Zacky so I can meet my minimum required Umineko threshold. 29. I'm not sure whether to be surprised at how low this is, or how high it is, because I fucking love this song and have been listening to it, along with the rest of the Sonic CD soundtrack a ton in the last 2 months, but prior to very recently this was one of my less listened to Sonic songs. I guess I've just been listening to it enough recently to put it this high, very epic, will never complain about a Sonic song being so high on the list. 30. THERE IT IS GARY THERE IT IS!!! This is probably my favorite Chainsaw Man song, so I'm really surprised that both Kick Back and Violence are both way higher, I guess it's probably another case of me listening to it more often outside Spotify without realizing it.

Ok eepy disease is getting too strong so no more extra special bonus rounds, 30 is enough. In conclusion fuck Spotify, doesn't even have Ort's theme from FGO, or hxcxx2 my favorite song with 500 views on Youtube, I hate Spotify and I hope Mr. Spotify falls in a river and then gets out of said river covered in mud and also deadly leeches.

🎃 what are some good memories you have of celebrating Halloween? and do you have any plans for this year? 

we actually don’t celebrate halloween in brazil so 😭😭😭 in my english course we did have halloween days and stuff but i’ve always wanted to trick or treat and never had the opportunity to. we’d just come to class in costumes and watch like silly children halloween videos like ohhhh this is halloween this is halloween

a friend of mine does halloween parties every year though so i’m rly looking forward to that!!! i plan to go as ellie from the last of us or veronica sawyer from heathers. yea not sure yet

💻 to feel nostalgic; what are some old games/websites you spent lots of time on when you were young?

i was obsessed with the sims 2 when i was younger !!! to this day it’s still my comfort game and stuff but i don’t play it as much anymore, only when i wanna distract myself :(( i used to play it for like 10+ hours nonstop like EASILY ya know

i also loved club penguin !! i miss the wave of club penguin rewritten or idk that everyone was into in the pandemic

Ranking all of the songs in Helluva Boss:

This list will not include songs in the Pilot (The Jingle and Oh Millie), minor songs (the Teacher's Song, My World Is Burning Down Around Me), or Just Look My Way (cause I haven't seen the video yet)

Here's the list! From least to most favorite.

19. Chaz Time (S2 Ep3)

It was a short song and honestly not a good song. I do like Chaz's voice though.

18. Mustang Dong (S1 Ep3)

It's a good song, but there are better songs.

17. Crashin' A Muthafuckin' Wedding (S2 Ep3)

It kind of reminds me of Before He Cheats, Church Bells, and I Don't Even Know Her Name. It's definitely a badass Millie song.

16. Til the Day We Die (S2 Ep2)

This is just a worse version of "Oh Millie". It's not bad, just not really good.

15. Striker's Song (Sweet Victory) (S1 Ep5)

This song has always just been eh to me. It's not a bad song, but I'm honestly not a fan.

14. The Ballad of Striker (S2 Ep4)

I like this a little more then Sweet Victory, but it's not really as good.

13. Stolas Sings (S2 Ep1)

This is probably the weakest song sang by Stolas. It's definitely heartbreaking, but it is not as strong as Stolas' other songs.

12. Juggling Iz Cool (S2 Ep7)

I love Tom Cardy, so this might be a little biased. However, this is a good song. I just wish it was longer.

11. Regular Joe (S2 Ep5)

I'm honestly not that big of a fan of the Millie songs, but it is pretty good. I have been waiting for Millie's character development, and this episode never really gave it to me.

10. You Got The Power (Millie's Big Show) (S2 Ep5)

This song intercut with the fight between Blitzø, Moxxie, Barbie, and the teen is really good. It is a pretty good song.

9. Crooked (S2 Ep7)

I wish this was higher cause I love Fizz and Ozzie. However, I still really like this as one of the only love songs that isn't sang by Moxxie and Millie.

8. Vacay to Bonetown (S1 Ep3)

I love this song despite it being so short, it's still a good song.

7. Moxxie's Bad Trip (S1 Ep6)

This song is thematically strong being intercut with both Moxxie and Blitzø's hallucinations. Moxxie struggles with his fear of rejection, but so does Blitzø. Moxxie's hallucination being themed after Phantom of the Opera also makes it slightly better.

6. Klown Bitch (S2 Ep7)

Episode 7 of Season 2 has some of the best songs in the entire show. I'm honestly glad this song was played in the credits cause it was so good! It kind of reminds me of KDA.

5. Cotton Candy (S1 Ep8)

I love Kesha! Also this song is a great representation of Bee as a character. I think Cotton Candy was also a great way to set the scene of Bee's party.

4. Look At This! (S2 Ep6)

Might be a little biased because I love Alex Brightman, but this is just a really good song. The ending also cracks me up every time.

3. You Will Be Okay (S1 Ep2)

This song is basically More Than Anything before More Than Anything Existed. This song is what sold me on Stolas' new voice actor. I legit cried when I first heard this song.

2. House of Asmodeus (S1 Ep7)

I love the different parts of this song. It's a good cap to the end of the season. It's one of my all time favorites.

1. 2 Minutes Notice (S2 Ep7)

I think we've all had a shitty boss we wish we could sing this song to. I listened to this song nonstop for weeks after this episode came out.
