Unexpected Ship Black Sails Musical Parallels | V. XIV.

I spent a year rewatching Black Sails and tracking all the bits of music that repeated at any point during the show, and my findings are reinforcing that Bear McCreary is a genius and this show should have been called 'parallels that will kill you over and over again'* (tag | chronological)

[emblazons]

"How many years I know I bare— I found something In The Woods somewhere."

Phoenixflare x Hozier's "In The Woods Somewhere" "Lost in the Woods" Secret Santa Prompt for @february13rose "In the poem, the protagonist finds himself in the woods, and is terrified by beasts until his love interest in Heaven sends a mentor to pull him out of the woods and set him back on the virtuous path he had lost." (x)

To me, this gifset is a very loose 'retelling' of Dante (Dion) moving through the "circles of hell," though primarily the version of the stories presented in Hozier songs (both In The Woods Somewhere, which these lyrics come from, and most of the phenomenal album Unreal Unearth: Unending, particularly Hymn to Virgil) which that draw very heavily on the imagery and themes of The Inferno, albeit in that more romantic way only Andrew Hozier Byrne can be. In my mind, we are following a Dion reflecting on the madness inflicted on him by Ultima, both the slow degradation of his confidence in his father and his ability—and how, after what he did in Twinside, he considers himself lost and unworthy of saving. At the start, he is waking to a version of himself he cannot face, one burdened by regret & a lack of desire to live–but who is slowly led back to "the surface" and forgiveness by "the voice from heaven" (Joshua), who is also in a way his Virgil in that he is the authoritative guide leading him through things he doesn't understand.

In my original vision, the ending of this set is a lot sadder—more in alignment with the tone of the game and Hymn to Virgil (where Dante refuses to leave hell because he won't leave Virgil, and...they are trapped in hell together lol). In this, he escapes that hell with Joshua (out of respect for Luna's desire for a happy ending), both because he #DeservesIt and also because of the Phoenix's proverbial and literal ability to "revive" him, whether through love or his powers. Either way, the redemption and forgiveness he desires is achieved through his alliance with Joshua–which is actually kinda like the story told in canon, at least to me!

Also, side note: the grid was done in reference to Dion’s talk of his gilded cage in the quest Clive does for him in the Hideaway. It just struck me as poignant to give to him here.

Hope you enjoy your gift! :)

Can i be known as the artist who had the hots for every BS Background character cause im finding out a lot just by going through my old instagram posts

guys I am not just the Josh guy (keep calling me that tho, i am THE Josh fan)

[bandzboy]

i don't keep up with seventeen why did seungkwan write that post. is it because of the hybe documents that were exposed

yes basically in the documents it was shown that joshua's dating rumors (which he was immensely harrassed for) were basically used as a marketing scheme by hybe and basically cut seungkwan's hiatus short because of this situation as well. in other words, they were used by hybe and it's truly severe and i feel like seungkwan's statement just really says everything

[wyvolf]

furry ? what about sparkledogs of two of them!! Inspired to post this bc of hellphure grins

fun fact! the bright dog design is something I made 3 years ago! Yippee!

// update: I no longer use Dr. Bright (or Mikell), his author AdminBright/Michael Peters is a nonce (aka pedophile groomer freak). You cannot separate this art (Bright) piece from the creator (AdminBright). Sparkledog Bright however is still my character BUT I am separating him from Bright

HC + fire

Send me hc + a word for meta to be forged || ACCEPTING.

Fire is many things to Jote. It is rebirth, it is something to be feared but it is something kind all at once. Fire is something she cannot be free from; sick reminders adorning her temple, roots to never be forgotten.

Fire is the reminder, the shape of the sigil seared into her belly; a phoenix in flight, a remnant of a time when the Undying were devoured by madness when their messiah slept in an everlasting coma. The offering of skin, smooth or scarred by war: it was a ritual how steel burned flesh in obsession, in barbaric practices in shared mania.

Fire, the Phoenix: it all haunts her dreams, identity without edges defining who she is outside of the Undying. She does not know who she is without it all. She is merely a blank page, who the Undying stained with misery and devotion to a dying man.

Fire is clemency. She was taught this. She was taught to not be afraid; the numb skin after flames kill nerves is a blessing. The cold is foreign to her, Shiva's boon new. She thinks she was born with a fever.

To put it simply: she is not afraid of what kills and decays rotting flesh.

Men after showing you the most conventionally beautiful woman and saying “hear me out”

Meanwhile women showing you someone who looks like they’ve been left in a microwave for too long

Ps: I understand this is a pretty hefty overgeneralisation but I don’t mean every individual man and every individual woman all feel this way. It’s more my take on the idea of “the male gaze” and “the female gaze” in a way and also the joke that women tend to find more random/obscure things or characters attractive. Not only that but generally tend to be drawn to more interesting and complex characters rather than “here’s a sexy character with no plot”. If you’re a man and don’t like the vault girl oversexyfied ai bs then good on you. If you’re a man and you also wanna fuck Joshua Graham good on you. If you don’t fit into any category at all then good on you! The post isn’t about you.

[orpheusilver]

NAUR LITERALLYYYYYY its like yea these arent our Main Characters Who Make The Plot Happen but theyre out here theyre living their lives. makes the losses and sacrifices actually hit when youve seen someone in the bg being just some guy for the last 2 seasons like. i get sadder abt charlotte and muldoon and logan every time yknow

Crash Out

***After thinking you were out with another man, Joshua confronts you only to realize he’s trippin***

This is my first time writing like this please be kind lol hope you enjoy

SO YOU REALLY OUT HERE TRYNNA MAKE A NIGGA LOOK DUMB! the voice on the other end of the phone was Joshua, of course. Over reacting as usual. What did I do now?! I thought as he continued to rant.

Josh idk what you’re talkin about, I’ve been home all day! You always callin with some bs. I responded. When he gets like this it does annoy a small part of me, but damn hearing him all fired up like that made my pussy jump and drip.

So now John just lyin on you? So you callin my brotha a liar now! He ain’t got no reason to lie on you Y/N!

Wtf yo messy ass brotha said now? I swear he always got some dumb shit to say and hear you go blowin my phone up with the bullshit Josh!

Dating a twin is not for the weak! If I’m not caught up in their pranks then it’s their drama or pettiness!

So you ass wasn’t in the mall all hugged up with some nigga in Nike? Cause that what my bro said he saw!

Josh listen to yourself! Do you fuckin hear how you sound? Why in the fuck would I be out in public with another man if ima play you? Especially knowing you have eyes everywhere?! And stop all that damn yellin before I hang up!

You gone hang up on me?! Bet!

I could feel the vibrations through the phone of the low growl in his voice when he said it

Bet!

**boop boop boop** was the next sound Josh heard cause I surely did hang up

Walking around my house in a XXL YEET shirt I heard the familiar sound of a truck engine in my driveway.

Y/N OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR RIGHT NOW GIRL!

He was so damn sexy when he was mad 💦

Josh stop banging on my door like that! You’re gonna break it!

Then open it tf up!

He hit the door again this time I heard the frame crack a little

Ok ok ok just stop beating on my shit!

Josh came in looking around before his eyes settled on me

Bae calm tf down! Look at you, you all swole in the chest!

I’m telling you right now y/k if you lyin to me I swear…

Bae look around… I been here in yo shirt all day taking a lazy day.

You’re right I see the ice cream on the counter, the blankets and the movie goin, it’s just John called said he thought he saw you and I lost it! Idk what I’d do if I ever lost you. Just the thought drives me crazy

I grab his face in both hands, he grabbed my wrist and kisses the palm of my right hand.

You know it does something to me when you get like that bae

I’ll crash out any time, any place over you, and over this

He reached bw my legs and lightly grazed my clit

Damn! You ain’t got on no draws for big daddy Jey?! Let me see!

He lifted my shirt off and began to kiss my neck as he slid his hand below my waist and found my soft pussy lips soaked.

You wet for me too, you like when I get like that over you. You my nasty freak

I’m in heaven, his warm kisses on my neck , his thick fingers working their way into my tight wet pussy, finding my g spot and applying pressure. I wrapped both arms around his neck as my legs begin to give way to the pleasure. He walked me back against the wall and never missed a beat. Fingers stroking me, moving in and out to the rhythm of my heart beat. I could barely breathe

This my pussy? Tell me it’s my pussy.

Yes! It’s your pussy baby! It’s daddy Jey’s pussy

Josh pulled his fingers out and sucked my juices off, then pushed them into my mouth to give me a taste.

I want you to taste why I’m ready to crash out behind you bae

His big hands gripped my thighs and lifted me up, I wrapped my legs around his muscular waist. He pulled his pants down and I could feel his 8in dick pop up and slap my ass.

You feel that? You got me feeling like this

Put it in, please I need to feel you in me

He grabbed the shaft and begin slapping my pussy with the head of his dick. It made me absolutely feral! I begin to grind my pussy against him as he continued to tease me. My pussy dripping with anticipation. Then I felt him press his body against mine as he pushed his thick head into me. I gasped… it was what I was begging for. My pussy gripped every inch as he slowly entered me. Once fully in he griped my thighs to hold me up against the wall. The strokes started off slow, moving his hips in a circular motion. Sending me into another dimension.

This what I been needing. When I’m in you, I know you all mine he whispered into my ear.

I could feel every stroke grow stronger, I clawed shoulders as I was looking to readjust my grip on him. The sound of skin smackin and macaroni filled the air, I gasped as he sped up his pace. I could feel him throbbing in me as he grew harder. The growl he made as he pushed deep into me made me even wetter.

You like how I handle that pussy baby?

Mmhm was all I could say. I couldn’t even talk he had me so gone from the dick.

You gone cum for big daddy Jey? He didn’t have ro say no more. I was already there. But he already knew that. This man knew my body like that back of his hand.

Mmmmhm ahhh fuck! You strokin me so good bae

My body begin to shake and my pussy squeezed his dick and I begin the have the best orgasm anyone has ever given me.

Damn baby you bout to make me cum with you

He pressed me harder against the wall and he bottomed out inside of me. He let out a primal growl that made me want a round 2 immediately. Still holding me up he kissed me wildly and passionately. He lowers me to the floor and we both collapsed into each other arms and onto the couch. As I lay on his chest listening to his heart beat he held me tightly and whispered.

Yeah I’ll crash out a million times a day behind that lil pussy.

And I’ll do the same behind that dick

THE END

Joshua

I walked down the hall towards Cece's room. I haven't spoken or seen her in 2 days she has the weekend off and spent time with her family in New York. I knocked on her door waiting for her to open it up.

"Damn girl hurry up." I said as continued to knock, eventually the door open. She had her robe on showing a little cleavage, she hair was in slick back bun with her glasses on. "What took you so long?" I asked. She stepped aside letting me in even just getting out of bed she still beautiful.

"Why are you so loud Jey?" She asked mumbling rubbing her eye. I sucked my teeth and sighed. She climbed back into her bed. "What time did you get in?" I asked.

"Like 5." She mumbled.

"Damn baby, you wanna cuddle?" I asked. She nodded her head. I kicked my shoes off and took my shirt off and I climbed into bed with her. "Just for a little set timer for 45mins." She said.

"Ma if you need more than 45mins to we can stay as long as you need." I tell her as I wrapped my arms around her pulling her closer.

"No babe you have a tight schedule today." She said resting her cheek on my chest. "How about this I'll go but you stay behind and sleep in a little and get some rest." I proposed.

The room went silent until I heard little snoring coming from her. I looked down seeing she definitely knocked out. I chuckled kissing her forehead.

1 hour later

"Hey Jey your phone is blowing up over here." My cousin Nia says as I was signing pictures . "Bring it over here." I tell her. She walks up over with my I take it to her seeing it was Sierra. I laughed shaking my head.

(5) iMessages from Little mama😻

Little Mama 😻

Little Mama 😻: JOSHUA!!!

Little Mama 😻: I told you to set a alarm!

Little Mama 😻: WHY DIDNT YOU SET THE ALARM JOSHUA!!!

Little Mama😻: your a asshole seriously 😒

Little Mama 😻: ughhh please tell me you at least made it on time

DaddyJucey 💋; yea I made it ma I'm signing right now

Little Mama 😻: Mhmm I'll see you in a little

DaddyJucey 💋: I hope you have a better attitude when you come up over here little mama

I finished signing everything just when she arrived I acted like I didn't see her, until she walked up to the table. "Hey." I said. "Joshua." She said folding her arms. Seeing she still had a attitude.I got up from my seat pushing it in "C'mere." I said taking her to a empty room.

"Didn't I tell you to have a better attitude coming over here?" I asked her. She groaned throwing her head back. "Exactly, so why you ain't fix it?" I asked.

"Boy move today is not the day for your bs." She said pushing me back slightly.

"Baby I'm tryna give you the benefit of the doubt and not fuck the shit out of you." I tell her. She rolled her eyes.

"Josh you were supposed to set the alarm so I could wake up." She says with a little base in her voice. I was little taken back by her tone. "I was doing you a favor baby I know that you work your ass off all the time, I just wanted my beautiful lady to get some good sleep, knowing you just got in from a flight."

We stared at each other not saying a word. "Ughh I blame you for why I'm so cranky." She said. I laughed pulling her in for a hug. "Nah you just a big ass baby that needs a little love and affection." I said kissing her resting our forehead together.

"You forgive me bae?" She asked.

"You can make it up to me and we got ourselves a deal." I tell her.

"Okay I gotchu later big daddy, but right now you got a lot of pictures to take so let's get back out there." She said pulling away. I gave her a love tap on the ass before opening the door for her. "You got a little something on your lip, sir." She said. I wiped my lip shaking my head evertime we kiss she leaves her lip gloss on my lips or my cheek.

As we were walking back to the front I could hear fans chanting my name. I clapped my hands together feeling excited. "You hear that ma?" I asked looking at Cece.

"Get out there and do your thing." She said. I gave her a quick little kiss catching her off guard running off out there.

Sierranicole 3mins ago

Next day

Sierra

"C'mon mama 5 more." Jey said. I whined tired as hell. Today we started our day off early and decided to hit the gym before Monday night raw. "Hey you ask for this mama."

"Yea I ask you to assist me not be my personal trainer and be aggy." I said. It was day 3 of my workout and I had do 3 sets of 12 shoulders presses and I had I known Joshua was gonna be so aggy about how I do things then I would have never ask him.

He took my phone away so now I can't listen to music. He's says it's a distraction from my work-out that I keep stopping to be on my phone with headphones in himself.

"Baby just finish so you can move on to the next and final exercise." He said slapping my ass. I rolled my eyes finishing my sets. "There you go pretty mama." He says after I finished my last set.

"Can I have my phone back?" I asked looking at him through the mirror as he was typing on his phone.

"Whatchu say?" He asked looking up at me.

"Joshua that's not fair your literally on your phone." I complained. He looked at me as he walked up behind me. "I'm not the one working out though mama you are." He said. I rolled my eyes again mumbling under my breath. I wanted to say he needed to be working out but he's already in shape.

"I'm tired baby." I said pouting hoping he would let me skip this last one. "Awe you are mama?" He asked kissing my cheek I nodded my head. "To bad finish girl you almost done."

"Joshhh!" I whined. "Your being mean to me." I said.

"Your just being lazy, I bet you if it was this dick you wouldn't wanna stop." He said. I gasped turning red thank god we're the only ones in here. "Mhmm c'mon finish so we go babygirl." He said. I sighed and quickly got this shit done.

After we finished up we collected our things, and went back to the hotel shower and took a nap before we went to the stadium.

First thing Jey did was go talk with Hunter about what he was doing tonight, while they talked in the office I sat outside and waited.

Jey then walked out about 10mins later. "Now we needa go to the training room so I could get my ankles taped up." He said. I stood up following him to the training room. 

"Your quiet." He says as the trainer was wrapping up his left ankle. "I'm just tired as hell this week my sleep schedule as been a little messy this past week." I tell him.

"Was the weekend not enough time off?" He asked.

"It problem would have been if I wasn't with my family we did all kinds of activities when I got there and damn nearly went broke spoiling my mom sister and my nieces." I tell him.

"How you think you be having me?" He asked. "You choose to do it, just like I choose to spend all my money on my family." I said. He chuckled having nothing to say.

The door opens and this girl walked and immediately you can feel tension in the room. "Hey Jey." She said. I looked at Jey to see what he was gonna say but he just waved at her. "Oh you can't talk now?" She asked tilting her head.

Oh hell no she not talking to him like that

"Excuse you why you talking to him like that?" I asked. She look at me like I had four heads. "I'm talking to you girl." I said.

"Sierra." Jey grunted. I looked at him for a split second then back her. "Hello I'm waiting for a answer." I said.

"Don't answer her Jaida." He says to her.

"Ain't you his assistant?" Jaida asked.

"Why is that any of your business?" I asked. "Oh okay then, anyways Jey how you been?" She says.

"Who you ta-sierra don't you say another word, we done here Kev?" Jey asked the trainer cutting me off. Kevin nods his head Jey gets up off the bench and it pissed me off that he's allowing her to speak to me like that. "Let's go now." He said as he held door open. I glanced at her one more time before walking out the room.

I feel Jey grab me but I quickly pulled my arm away. "Leave me alone Joshua."

"Nah Sierra you don't get to be mad at about this shit, you started that shit." He says.

"Because she was talking to you crazy, but fuck all that who the fuck is she? And you let talk to me like that?" I asked.

"You start it Sierra." He agured "It doesn't matter. I'm your girl right? You let everyone know I'm your girl so why you couldn't you let that bitch know?" I asked.

"Mane Sierra ion got time for this shit uce. At the end of the day you started that shit you could have cost me my job starting shit, matter fact just go back to the hotel I'll deal with you later." He said.

"I'll do you a better favor and book my flight back to Florida." I said walking away before he could speak, I opened my phone booking the next flight back to Florida.

Blossom Story is PU-EU, martini and rented-space's meshes. Uses nat's alpha edit. Polycount is 11k.

Joshua is PU-EU, martini's mesh. Polycount is 9k.

Unchained is PM-EM, martini's mesh is aagb but I only did male. I also didn't like digi's flipped mesh so skipped that too. Polycount is 10k.

Old School is PF-EF, martini's mesh. Polycount is 11k.

This damn football bs won't leave my mind

Got soooo many 17776 things that i'm thinking about. Finally drew Louise's wife, Anne. She's a QB from Asheville, NC. They met while playing for Washington and have been married for 3600+ years (as of 20020).

P.S.: I'm working on a website for all my 17776 lore and art stuff. Gonna release it as soon as i'm done!

Lore details about some games below the cut cause it's kinda beefy

About the Arcade League:

It's a league i created that focuses on National Park Games as well as fast-paced exciting events. Very nature centered. In the lore, it was thought up by Louise after watching her wife compete in the 17850 Smoky Bowl (see my other post for the flyer). More info about this will be on the website!

On the new games!

Mammoth Cave NP Game idea suggested by @cloudyishdays! I kinda went crazy about this concept and so at the moment i'm writing a rule book for the game. In its current iteration it's a two-team (Bass vs Cardinals) possession game (sort of like Halo's oddball). I'm still sorting out a couple of rules. The full edition will be on the website i'm working on.

Both Louise and Anne compete for the Bass in the MCG!

Joshua Tree NP game idea suggested by @rollerb1rdie (good god. i realized my mistake after like two months. i'm sorry omg!!) I was so excited when i saw the suggestion in the tags since one of my favorite musical artists got illegally partially cremated there (gram parsons!!!!!!!!). Did some research and the date of the start of the Joshua Tree Game is August 10, 19360! over 17,000 years to the day of JTNP's creation on Aug 10th, 1936.

On my next idea:

I'm thinking about a football game on Lake Pontchartrain in Louisiana. The game would initially be on the Pontchartrain Causeway bridge but when the ball inevitably goes out of bounds it would commence a second game on the actual lake (which will involve speedboats)..

Sooo that's my yap for today.... more coming

[mageknight14]

I loved how NEO pulled the rug out with Rindo’s character. At first, he generally seems much more sociable and outwardly friendly compared to Neku and then the game quickly goes "yeah, nah, he’s a huge fucking mess too." He’s a good kid fundamentally at his core but he can also be whiny, hypocritical, passive-aggressive, and kind of insensitive at times. He has a tendency to be judgemental and harsh to the people around him while not acknowledging his own faults, like when he complains about Beat joining the team even though he saved their lives beforehand because he’s not Neku or when he gives Fret shit for fawning over Eiji Oji and Kanon while falling for Motoi’s BS. He’s so pessimistic about himself and others that not even a death game that heavily emphasizes the value of teamwork can get him to fully come out of his shell, which is where his time-travel powers come in AND EVEN THEN it’s a double-edged sword since on one hand, it forces him to actively step up to the plate and survey the situation to find the best possible solution, which leads to him slowly growing out of his shell, but on the other, it also leads to him becoming overly reliant on his time travel so that he can walk back from potentially life-changing decisions without having to worry about it since he has a magic reset button. Which ends up biting him in the ass. Hard.

He’s one of those types of people who is ultimately a thinker and planner instead of a do-er, but his being young and overly impressionable takes this personality quirk to such an extreme that he's foundationally useless to most groups. He’s the type of person who you have in a group project who sits around and does nothing, but then complains with the project does poorly because he couldn't be bothered to speak.

He's so unconfident and directionless that he uses effectively Instagram as a means to listen to someone who sounds like some 2deep4u philosopher post dumb flowery bullshit that effectively has all the meaning of "Drink water when you're thirsty." and he admits to finding such "deep" meaning in these posts that it supposedly helped him through life. Because he's 15 and doesn't know anything.

However, all of this makes him interesting as a character because he’s, again, still a fundamentally good kid at his core. While he’s shown to have a fuse, he is also the kind of person who has the ability to think his emotions through. That's what we ultimately see when he and Fret finally talk and drop their beef. The game depicting Rindo's capacity for self-awareness and emotional reflection is a positive revelation of his character strengths. He proves that he's capable of recognizing when he's in the wrong and knows how to apologize, a trait he shows quite a few times throughout the story, while also doing everything he can to set things right as well as be more understanding toward how his friends feels.

He’s kind of the guy who will drop everything to help a little kid out, even when there’s no tangible benefit to doing so and he and the others are shown to be on limited time, shows empathy to his friends/fallen enemies, and feels massive amounts of guilt for his actions, even if he didn’t know better at the time.

Hell, the entire endgame is fueled by his selfish yet understandable desire to save the people he cares about most from total erasure, to the point that he’s willing to risk thousands of lives to do so. But not only is he shown to be internally grappling with himself regarding his decision but he’s also willing to take responsibility and ensure that EVERYTHING goes right not just for himself and his friends but the people of Shibuya in general, in a parallel to Neku’s own selfish if understandable decision to put the bonds he formed in the original game (particularly with Joshua) over the actual city.

Characters aren't interesting simply by switching between 2 different character traits. They're interesting when all those traits are being expressed at the same time for reasons that are consistent within their internal logic. You gotta be a good writer to pull that off and you gotta know when to show off these dimensions during your story to achieve proper dramatic effect when the time calls for it and NEO I feel does this pretty damn well.
