It's been a week since I got back from Tokyo, and I'm still disappointed by the Kingdom Hearts Ichiban Kuji. It was supposed to start the 31st of May, the day I was flying home. But I checked like a dozen participating 7/11 stores before I went to the airport, and none of them had started it yet. Sigh...
As a silver lining, I did find a 7/11 that had those chocolate wafers out early, so I grabbed a few.
Came with that Missing Link pre-registration and everything. Wonder what's going on with that... And while I'm showing stuff off, here's the other KH merch I bought in my limited time!
#kh#kingdom hearts#khml#sora#i visited akihabara twice. and both times the only place open was the don quijote.#to be fair i visited first at like 10pm. and then at 8am the following morning. right outside opening hours for most business in japan#anyway. that's where i picked up the COM cards. the music box. and the pooh bear pouch.#i got the amiibo from the nintendo store obvi. i don't even own smash bros. i just needed my son 🥺#i have since opened those other two wafers. i got an aqua card. and a kingdom of corona card.#ironic because i have since caught covid from my flight home... coincidence? poetic justice? serendipity? whatever. i ache so much...

Playing around with another one of my 18th century favorites, Niel Gow's Lament for the Death of His Second Wife. I met a wonderful fiddler at Salem this weekend who reminded me how much I love this tune; I only wish I had recorded our rendition, as I tend to compulsively do, but that wouldn't have been very period accurate of me while playing for the officers' luncheon...
#it was pretty funny my fellow fifer and i were drawn to him like a beacon#and immediately went over to ask if he was going to stick around in the evening so we could play with him#mind you this is two college kids and like a fifty year old guy#unfortunately he wasn't so we both kind of looked at each other despite being on duty and decided we Did have an hour to kill#and accidentally ended up becoming background music for the officers' lunch#later our compatriots were upset that the officers didn't compensate us but to be fair they didn't really ask we just provided#anyway that guy was the sweetest and I hope to visit him the next time I come back to salem which Will happen because I didn't get to see#any real Salem Stuff since I was so busy#the captain's musick#folk music#18th century music#music#18thc#this is your captain speaking

I am so beyond ready to quit this job. Wednesday cannot come fast enough.
#to be fair it's bc school starts again in a few weeks#but idk. every day at this office feels like sandpaper on my skin. people always ask me shit i dont understand#and every case is so individual there's no set checklist to follow to troubleshoot#so most of the time I just grind my gears and get stuck#it'd busy more days than not.#and it was advertised to me as data entry only. client interactions was not what i signed up for.#it's all client interaction.#we're short staffed so nobody gets to take the back office and have a break.#when we weren't short staffed i was the new guy and only got 1 day in the back a week while everyone else got 2.#all my coworkers are conservative but talk like they're apolitical.#i thought it'd be fulfilling bc im helping people get benefits#but many are rude or impatient as any other service job. I'm constantly trying to direct people that don't want to listen#or explain the intricacies of something i barely understand.#and i don't want to lead people astray bc you have to start over if you blow a deadline.#but there's just nothing redeeming that i enjoy.#i hate customer service. i hate constantly asking questions. i like seldom few of my coworkers.#i can't be me at work.#and i don't care about the work itself anymore.#this job made me cry every day for weeks last month from sheer stress and overstimulation.#i almost cried myself sick several times.#the only reason I'm not there anymore is bc i dont fucking care anymore.#it took me 2 months to burn out. 2 months!#i was training for half of that!!#idk. everyone decided i was smart and could pick it up quickly so. even though everyone else got 4-6 weeks of shadowing#you can make do with 3 before you start doing stuff solo.#which feels unfair. i wasn't ready for it. and i resent the decision quite a bit.#plus it's been a nightmare for me in terms of external stressors and my generally deteriorating mental health. so.#all in all. i hate it here.#and i can't wait to turn in my notice so i can gtfo in 2 weeks#i am so tired. free me. let me go back to my music please

🐑 Alternate Universe- Magic, Mutual Pining, Demonic possession, Furbies
Oh dear...
Alex is attending one of the most prestigious magic academies in the country, on the orders of his parents of course. Even though Laiz Fier Academy reviles even the name of the only type of magic he's ever been good at. His parents swore he'd find another specialty here, and he'd let himself believe them, like the idiot he is. He's scraping by in classes. Barely. At least he's managed to make a couple of friends and figure out how to sneak into the library stacks to find books that will actually help him hone his skills.
However, Alex realizes now there's a reason why it's not recommended to do your first summoning alone. Because, while he does manage to summon a demon, it doesn't exactly end up in the silvery urn he'd laid in the center of the pentagram.
So now he has a talking, demonic Furby to hide. One that, despite its too-wide eyes and disconcertingly smooth voice, Alex thinks he might be developing feelings for.
(Fake fic ask game!)
#legolas tag#legolas ask#julie and the phantoms#willex#so okay in my head#Alex is super good at a specific branch of magic#which usually would be awesome since he was born into a high power magical family#unfortunately the thing he's good at is demonic magic#which is.... unpopular to put it lightly#his parents send him away to school in the hopes that he'll latch onto something else with so many options to explore#that doesn't happen#he meets Luke and Julie (both music magic) and Reggie (animal magic)#and they all become friends#and they all figure out how to sneak into the stacks together#where Alex finds all the hidden away books on demonic magic#cause it's not actually Evil like people think#just... darker in source than most#Alex may fall down a bit of a spiral about his abilities and worth though#and ends up attempting to summon an actual demon to help him learn magic#but... well he must have messed up the binding part of the ceremony?#Cause he does get a demonic magic coach#but said coach (Willie) goes into the Furby Reggie got him as a prank birthday present#and well... Alex knows he should figure out how to undo it and send Willie back to Hell or wherever#but then he has to rush to hide him first before he gets caught#and then they end up chatting a fair amount over the next few days#because Alex is a world class insomniac and Willie just doesn't sleep#but Alex is kept too busy with classes and stuff to go back to the library to find the stuff to sort out the mess he's made#and if Willie knows how to do it he isn't sharing#(he totally knows but it's his first time in the human world in ages and Alex is nice and kinda cute tbh so...)#and...they become friends? And also develop massive crushes on each other?

i love when hiring managers play cute little games with applicants in their job descriptions on seek.
#life#about me#shut up ilona#ilona's jobhunting thoughts and woes#ilona's work dilemmas#ilona's work thoughts#like to be fair this IS for a local music agency where i am#so it makes sense that i'd have to know some basic (and very googleable info) about an aussie singer that we might have in our portfolio#...ie. missy higgins#but also. the 'include the phrase crafting success or we wont even bother looking at you application' is rude asf#and yeah yeah i get both of these things are also testing the 'ninja of detail and accuracy' shit they have throughout the rest of this ad#and it's also a play on their business name bc ~creative industry~ people are insufferable so r.i.p me#they also keep saying 'must be a wizard with tech' in the JD#but im still applying because this engages little 18yo me in her entertainment industry course so much and booking bands headspace#and also bc my old cadetship job REFUSED to let me do any event planning/booking/organisation stuff bc apparently.....#....'it's NEVER been relevant to you and your journey so just accept that we wont let you do it'#NO!!!!!!!!!!!#scream crying while trying to not to throw my laptop out the window while applying to this role either this week or next week#even though they defs want an event management or marketing student or grad from uni or tafe#but FUCK EM

People don't know much about orchestration as a rule; it's one of the undersung aspects of the musical. But no musical had quite such a saga of orchestration as Annie Get Your Gun.
Irving Berlin wrote the score; Rodgers and Hammerstein produced, and Phil Lang was asked to orchestrate Berlin's music. He was reasonably early in his career and would go on to orchestrate hits like Hello, Dolly! and My Fair Lady - but here, he tried to create an orchestral sound where the melody was not given to the singers. Normally there is a line for the singers to hold to, often the clarinet in that era. Legend has it that the sitzprobe was a disaster; the cast was not used to music without the leading line and Rodgers and Hammerstein insisted that the orchestrations be rewritten from scratch before the impending opening.
Phil Lang still has the first credit, but he was fired from production. The other orchestrators credited are Robert Russell Bennett, arguably the most famous orchestrator of the time, and Ted Royal. However, extant scores show that as many as 25 orchestrators were called in to finish the job, "ghosting" as a favour as was not uncommon in that era. As a result, Annie Get Your Gun is possibly the musical where the finished product has been touched by the largest number of orchestrators - does this affect the style? Arguably not - ghosting was common in that era and most orchestrators were quite good at blending to the dominant sound. A side of musical theatre that few know about!
#queue stole my heart away#musical theatre history#musical theatre#richard rodgers#oscar hammerstein#irving berlin#rodgers and hammerstein#annie get your gun#orchestration#phil lang#robert russell bennett#ted royal#ethel merman#there's no business like show business#hello dolly!#my fair lady#Spotify

#speculation nation#i have reached a new level of shipping where im like 'yes this is a m/f pairing no this is not straight'#bi4bi and t4t let's GO#or if not trans then at least gender-nonconforming which DEFINITELY counts. to me.#listen lady knight and flamboyant lord what's not to love here#ngl seeing this late game shit with the two of them is really getting me closer and closer to admitting i like the pairing#the scene where kisara first calls him 'Do'............ ldkfjslkdfjsdf#AND THEN her calling him that in front of the others and Law being like 'Did you just-' b4 Rinwell pushes him along lmaoo#everyone too busy dunking on dohalim to realize kisara actually really really likes him#to be fair she also dunks on him. he made green goop pancakes with his face on them and called it art i think he deserves to be dunked on#also OH GOD THE PANCAKES lksjdflsdjflskdjfslkdjf dohalim pancakes... and he legit put his face on them.#i was fucking cackling#im enjoying wandering around the game in this late-game setting. just a bunch of shenanigans#shionne's max campfire bonding like lskdjflsdkjf alphen get ur brain out of the GUTTER 'do you wanna make something together?' 'w-what?!'#like broooooooooooo but tbh i kinda had that thought too so maybe i cant blame him. it was just the face she made while saying it ok#and then fantasizing about domestic living together... like ok i wouldnt quite say i Ship them but they are very cute. & very canon#BUT ALSOOOOOOO dohalim's max convo slkfjsldkfj drinking together... alphen commenting that it'd be a good time for music...#and on the space ship thing dohalim asking him to support him with leading their peoples... ooughhhhh#i want them to be joint rulers soooooooo badly. They Both Have Two Hands.#i can be a shionne/alphen/dohalim/kisara truther ok. alphen and dohalim have Two Hands#ldkfjsldkfj many thoughts. maaany thoughts. also love dohalim commenting on law's nonexistent love life lksjdflkdjf#'it wouldnt be called the spring of youth without a little storm every now and then' ok old man lmao hes not even old hejust sounds like it#also them finding a wiener (their word choice) recipe & dohalim commenting 'Personally i prefer bologna'#dohalim likes bologna canon. i Knew he was my favorite for a reason.#he likes weird food in general tho. king shit i love him#toarise spoilers/#lots of rambling sldkjflsfj i just love this game
