#fearless anon

[my-castles-crumbling]

um so i came out to my mom two years ago and my dad last year no particular reason for the difference just happened like that and anyways they're supportive and all we talk about the girls i like over dinner or otherwise they still think i should focus on my education and think about my sexuality after i get into a good college or whatever but that isn't really from a place of homophobia. here's the thing though they're always like "keep an open mind bc you might not be gay" bc they think that the primary reason i like girls is because i go to an all girls school and have probably interacted with maybe fifteen boys outside my family in the fourteen years of my life and i mean they say they'll support me no matter what and i know that but at the same time i wish they didn't tell me to keep an open mind and shit bc my other friends who had interacted with less guys irl but a few online knew they liked guys even though they were in a girls school but my parents think most of the people from my school who say they like girls say it because we go to an all girls school but that's not the thing i've never really felt much attraction to guys maybe once when i was nine but never since then and if i think about a future with a guy all that comes to mind is one of those pictures you find on google of a stereotypical straight white couple doing shit together and i'm not even white so 😭 and i can't really ever picture myself kissing a guy fictional celebrity or real like i always use someone else as a placeholder but i can imagine vivid makeout scenes with girls so yeah i know with certainty that i like girls and not guys and my parents being kinda dismissive of it kinda hurts.

Hi!

That's so frustrating :( I feel like non-queer people say that type of shit a lot and don't understand why it's so upsetting. I definitely understand why you feel the way you do, and I'm so sorry <3

Have you tried to flip it back on them? Either saying, "Would you tell me to keep an open mind about being gay if I was straight?" or even (though this is a bit more sassy, probs not as good of an idea) "Oh, you guys should keep open minds too! Maybe you're actually gay!"

Naming you fearless anon

[typingwithmyhandstied]

How about you?

[ask-spiderpool]

heh, how would Samantha react when reader is rubbing her arms, feeling her biceps? Saying “babe, you really need to wear tank tops more often”

hmmm... i think this answer would sound better written, so i hope you take this:

WHAT A GIRL LIKE ME WOULD DO FOR SOMEONE LIKE YOU

sam carpenter x g!n reader ficlet

Sam bowed against the countertop, her elbows holding herself steady while her folded hands pressed against the back of her head. Her upper body burned with the amount of exertion she gave during her workout. A complete 45-minute upper body workout didn't just leave her muscles burning... it left them burnt out.

Luckily, you took it upon yourself to help her cool-down. Your way, of course, in which you let your hands slide up and down the upper half of her arm to give her a post-workout massage. You applied the perfect amount of pressure to her biceps, feeling the muscles slide beneath her skin in sync with your pattern. It was your pleasure to do this, because the sight of her in a tank top always made you unable to keep from staring. It was a win-win, the smile on your face growing as Sam gave a gratified groan.

You chuckled as she dropped her hands from her head and went limp against the countertop. "Babe, you really need to wear tank tops more often," you suggested as you travelled down her arm again, generous with the gentle squeezes you gave.

A delighted hum answered your actions, before actual words did your comment. "So, you can do this more often?"

"Hey, don't act like you're not enjoying it," you laughed. "But, yes, I'd be more than happy to do this a lot more, and not just after a workout." You slid your hands all the way down to hold hers and bowed to place a kiss on her bare shoulder. "It's a win-win."

She gave an amused scoff, lifting herself from the counter to turn around and face you. "And then, a few weeks later, you'll be suggesting I go shirtless more often, right?"

A tempting grin pulled at your lips and you raised an eyebrow, "So, now you can see the future?"

She shrugged. "Or I'm a mind-reader," was her counter with the same amount of playfulness.

"What am I thinking right now, then?"

She didn't hesitate. "I love you."

And she was right.

───────────────────────────

i hope you enjoyed this, anon!

thank you for asking! 🩶

I wonder what they could put in a second trailer for Sonic 3. The first one gave us enough info to put together a basic premise, I feel if they give us anything more they might get into spoiler territory.

Hi Hon!❤️✨

Ooh! I have a cool thought! Earlier this summer, one of the filming expos in the UK had Paramount hold a panel where they did tease Sonic 3. However, it was a “Meet Shadow” trailer where they showed some scene and teasers of Shadow to the audience. I think that it would be cool to see that.

If we’re gonna do “Fearless: Year of Shadow,” we should really go all out with SCU!Shadow, right?

[rickybaby]

Genuine question as I am curious — I know it’s pretty obvious with his expressions/ body language that Daniel seemed shy/insecure(?) about having his braces, but has he ever outright said anything about feeling that way with them? Just out of curiosity as I am new around here!

“I feel very different in terms of looks. Fortunately, experience also bought me better looks. I’m not really too fond of showing people photos of me when I was younger”

[stillgotscars]

i can't believe this might be the last time we'll hear fearless (song) on a setlist again

i can’t believe it either, but i’m sooo glad that it got its moment to shine on the eras tour and that we were lucky enough to see taylor spinning around in cowboy boots in the years 2023 and 2024.

[notyouraryang0dd3ss]

I'm a hater so I wouldn't know, but is this first time one of her albums hasn't had plagiarism issues? She's always stealing songs and artwork; is this the first album she's genuinely written all by herself?

nope she has jack antonoff and aaron dessner as cowriters for almost every song on ttpd 😭 swifties really need to stop peddling her solo songwriting genius because she hasn’t written an entire album completely solo since Speak Now (2008) 16 years ago 😭

here’s what I could find about her plagiarism allegations by album:

Taylor Swift: Couldn't find anything

Fearless: Couldn't find anything

**Speak Now: A deleted reddit thread suggesting plagiarism by** Taylor Swift from the German artist Madeline Juno I misread it, the thread was about Madeline Juno plagiarizing Taylor Swift, not the other way around

Red: "Shake it Off" lawsuit from 3LW alleging she stole lyrics from their song, "Playas Gonna Play" (but this suit was filed after Taylor's re-recording, not during the original release)

1989: Ally Burguieres sues Taylor Swift for using her art on the 1989 merchandise, without proper credit or compensation to Burguieres

Reputation: Couldn't find anything

Lover: Poet Teresa La Dart sues TS for copying the concept and aesthetics of her chapbook of the same name

Technically related, but some people pointed out "Cruel Summer" chorus sounds extremely similar to LOONA's "Stylish" which came out a year prior

Folklore: Stole logo from Black-owned brand Folklore for the album merchandise

**Evermore: hit with a lawsuit from Evermore Park for infringing on its trademarks; However, its a messy situation because the park had been using TS songs without her knowledge/permission (which prompted TS to countersue) and its *speculated* that the park (which was financially struggling) saw an opportunity to make money by suing her. The lawsuits against each other were simultaneously dropped in March 2021.

Midnights: Latina-American musician Manuela Torres points out the striking similarities (implying plagiarism) between her "Glimmer" MV and "Anti-Hero" MV

The Torture Poets Department: Nothing (so far...)

**Corrections provided by @bunnythevampireslayer thank you so much for pointing out these mistakes!

I love seeing people compare music to their favourite characters and go like 'oh yeah this verse might be this character... and then this one is the other one... and then this little bit here is them both honestly. Or something like that' because I HAVE gone through every taylor swift song on evermore and folklore and compared it to skk. Sorry to be autistic on the writing account, but this is a fanfic writing account and I'm writing my second novel length fic about them so what did you expect.

folklore/evermore are very canon skk, and verge into fanon and some songs are the reason for very specific head canons, or some of the ways I write the way they perceive each other. 1989... DON'T GET ME STARTED OMFG HAVE YOU EVER LISTENED TO BLANK SPACE? I THINK IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO NOT HAVE AND OMG IT'S SO SKK CODED LIKE WTF. I HAVE VERY FIRM OPINIONS ABOUT WHICH LYRICS ARE THEIRS. Also the vault tracks literally exist what more do you want from me. 'i think about jumping off of very tall somethings just to see you come running and say the one thing I've been wanting' okay dazai pack it up you did that already, beast exists. 'i call my mom sister she said that it was for the best remind myself the more i gave you'd want me less' yeah yeah chuuya we know he left you get over it, it wasn't personal(think that line could go for either of them but the other line 'the way you faded till i left' feels more Dazai personally). Plus suburban legends. For personal reasons I struggle to listen to song without SPIRALING FUCK YOU THAT ONE PERSON SEHDHSSJNS but very skk as well 'we were born to be national treasures' is very soulmates of them. And out of the woods screams them in fanfic when they try to get better. Red, straight away all too well. They both remember it all too well. All too well skk cover with switching vocals anyone? The last time. The one with gary lightbody. Underrated song, is my favourite on that album, and SO THEM. 'this is the last time you tell me ive got it wrong, this is the last time i wont hurt you anymore' because they're fated to be together and are constantly drawn to each other and yet keep HURTING EACH OTHER RAGH. also 'we are never getting back together' is pretty funny and nice when applied to them. also state of grace. any taylor song with a mild drop of religious imagery is them cause yeah. but 'i never saw you coming, and I'll never be the same'... okay pack it up, we don't have time for your yearning. 'you were never a saint' (dazai abt chuuya) 'and i loved in shades of wrong' (bc hes toxic and doesnt know how to healthily like people) 'we learned to live with the pain, mosaic broken hearts' (bc they continue anyway and stick it out, living with the pain of being bad for each other because of how deeply they care). I almost do. Dazai after leaving. moving on to more religion, holy ground. 'for the first time i had something to lose' 'and i guess we fell apart in the usual way, and the storys got dust on every page' AAAAAA IT'S THEM. Can't really speak on debut- but I've listened to our song and picture to burn and if picture to burn isn't a vengeful chuuya idk what is. BOY OH BOY SPEAK NOW.

excuse me. one moment.

Mine- literally a skk au

Sparks fly- 'the way you move is like a rainstorm and im a house full of cards, you're the kind of reckless that should send me running' that entire verse screams dazai's fascination with corrupted chuuya, and the whole song is well yeah

back to december- dazai when they reunite just trust me on it just trust me on it. the repetition was intentional, that's how serious i am. 'i go back to december all the time' 'I got back to december to make it all right'

speak now- might just be me but it really makes me think of teen skk in fanfic harbouring urges to ruin the others relationship for 'some reason. I don't know, seeing him with her just... irks me'.

the story of us- first verse is chuuya, second verse is dazai, and the third is them both because they're LOSERS and they LOVE EACH OTHER and FUCK I'm CRYING NOW. 'id tell you i miss you but i don't know how' EMOTIONALLY CONSTIPATED BASTARD.

enchanted- self explanatory. for more context, i really think it's from dazai's pov in this case, could probably be both, but dazai fell first and harder so it's really like god he's been in love ever since he got kicked into that wall he wants him around forever. He held Chuuya's hand in the fight with rimbaud and then had all those close moments in the manga and went home to lie on his bed kicking his feet and giggling don't lie. (god im still crying this isn't helping)

better than revenge- they're both pretty vengeful idk it makes me think of iwsynttr for some reason

haunted- chuuya pov. 'i thought i had you figured out, something's gone terribly wrong' 'stood there and watched you walk away from everything we had' they're so sad, but the general idea of chuuya thinking he has figured out dazai and knowing how he thinks and then dazai just leaves suddenly and he's like 'Wow! I thought i knew you. How do i forget this'. 'wont finish what you started' bringing chuuya into the mafia then leaving it.

last kiss- 'you told me you love me so why did you go away' chuuya pov again oh god it hurts why am i doing this to myself? 'never imagined we'd end like this, your name, forever the name on my lips' yep yep ow.

LONG LIVE.- LISTEN. TO. THE. SONG. AND TELL ME IT'S NOT DAZAI AND CHUUYA. I COULD DO A WHOLE ANALYSIS ON JUST THIS SONG. 'promise me this, that you'll stand by me forever, but if god forbid fate should step in, and force us into a goodbye...please tell them my name, tell them how the crowds went wild, tell them how i hope they shine, long live the walls we crashed through, i had the time of my life with you' FUCK IT'S DAZAI AN HE'S IN LOVE WITH CHUUYA AND DOESNT KNOW ODAS GONNA DIE YET, JUST THINKS HE DOESNT GET TO KEEP ANYTHING HE WANTS. FUUUUUCK. THEY'RE IN LOVE AND DAZAI WANTS IT REMEMBERED PLEASE I'M SO SAD.

anyway, i can't pretend I'm normal about skk anymore i haven't even covered fearless, reputation, lover or midnights please somebody encourage me to actually write full things dedicated to each album and the most fitting songs from said albums please i'll do it and plus i need to actually gather proof for my autism diagnosis appointment so this would be a good way to to that probably. anyway yeah this'll never make it out my drafts lol

[wineonmytshirt]

fave fearless album lyrics for it's annivesrary?

ohh i love this! okay let's go:

back then i swore i was gonna marry him someday, but i realized some bigger dreams of mine

and i love you for giving me your eyes, staying back and watching me shine

it rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone

i was a dreamer before you went and let me down

all those other girls, well, they're beautiful but would they write a song for you?

and i don't know why but with you i'd dance in a storm in my best dress, fearless

[my-castles-crumbling]

hi it's fearless anon

i really wish i could say it but they'd take it the wrong way and as it is things between us aren't in the best shape atm and i just don't want to make it worse. a few days ago though like long story short basically my mom said that "we've never had a problem with you being gay and we've never tried to put you in boxes or said that you can't be gay we just want you to keep an open mind" and that just annoyed me but we were in the middle of an argument so like i didn't say anything because it would just make everything worse. and one of my mom's close friends who was her roommate back when she was working abroad used to date girls and apparently had a very serious relationship with one of them but since she ended up marrying a man my mom is like "see things can change look at ___ she ended up marrying a man" and i know for a fact that my mom knows about bisexuality so for her it's just like i could still like guys and i don't rn bc i haven't really interacted with many of them.

when i first came out to my mom she also told me not to tell other people in school and not make such a big deal out of it so i wouldn't get labelled if things (my sexuality) changed later on. she kinda didn't want me to tell my friends either but anyways quite a few people know now and i'm not worried. i think this whole thing kinda has to do with the "you're too young to know" both of my parents subtly implied when i came out to them.

like they're not homophobic but they just don't think i should label myself now but newsflash for them i'm absolutely sure that i'm gay and it just pisses me off when they say shit like that.

Hi!

I definitely understand why that pisses you off

I mean I know they're not outright homophobic but this still isn't okay. It seems like they're trying to act cool while really encouraging you to be in a hetero relationship, and that feels icky.

Aside from challenging their ideas, I feel like there's not much we can do. But I'm sorry they're acting like this and I'm glad you know you deserve better.

[typingwithmyhandstied]

it might seem crazy what i'm bout to say..

i'm from austria😭 so! we know how that went

-💛

(now everyone reading this knows who i am so i shall run)

Oh that's sucky, but I am glad that you were okay in the end. 💛💛💛💛

Reputation & TS11.

do you think Taylor will announce or drop Reputation in a few days? Do you think we will see TS 11 soon? I’m curious what your thoughts are with these because there’s been a lot of speculation with it lately. I don’t think she would do 1989 TV dirty like that. Please… thoughts.

*mumbles under breath*

NO.

I do not think we are getting Reputation as an announcement or as a drop this weekend. 1989TV is quite literally her most successful album debut of her career. She is NOT going to disrespect that album by doing that. 1989 TV / SV is her baby. It’s the album that changed her entire career.

So no.

Besides - anyone who truly knows anything about Reputation knows that she is not going to make it obvious. That’s the entire point of Reputation. It’s like the Reputation fans who thought she wasn’t actually going to release 1989 TV and just drop Reputation instead. There are so so so many things that would have gone wrong with that.

SNTV got a short period because when you look at it… while it didn’t have a long Era like Red TV or Fearless TV… it got A LOT. It got a night dedicated to it with the guest appearances and the music video etc. Red and Fearless were released outside of the Eras tour so they got a longer stretch. That being said - she is giving 1989 TV longer.

When she announced 1989 TV she performed “New Years Day” from Reputation and that in itself could be an Easter Egg. If she was going to stick to the 112 day thing then she could announce Reputation on New Years Day and release it for February 16th, 2024. This would give it 46 days of promotion before a release.

Is it possible she just drops Reputation on New Years? No. It’s a Monday. Not to mention a holiday. Logistics nightmare if you ask me.

I am to laugh my ass off if the next album announced is Debut, closing with Reputation towards the end of the tour. Why? It’s exactly something that Taylor would do. Reputation Taylor at least. But I won’t get into my theories as to why I think Debut could be coming next.

As for TS 11…. I don’t see it coming before Eras wraps. The entire concert if designed around her first 10 albums. A LOT would need to be cut and redone to fit a new album into the concert. Not to mention all the work that has already gone into it with the movie and all that. She has a year left of touring with 2024. Two re-records to still get released. She is finishing off the Eras tour with those released then anything going forward will be TS11 and beyond. Releasing TS 11 during Eras would be such a bad business decision. New Albums deserve their own time. Just like Midnights had separate from the tour.

I think fans have become extremely greedy. She dropped two albums in a year with folklore and evermore because there was literally a pandemic going on and she had nothing else to do. Fans want all the re-records on top of each other. They want a new album - all while a world tour is going on. Like… come on guys. She is Taylor Swift, yes. She’s a bit of a super hero. I get it. But she’s still human all the same. Stop demanding so much from her all the time.

Since 2020, we have gotten:

• folklore

• evermore

• fearless tv

• red tv

• midnights

• speak now tv

• 1989 tv.

That is SIX albums. And fans just want more and more and more and more. Other artists… they’ve released one… maybe two if you’re really lucky. Some of released none and are working on one now. You also complain that the sound between 1989 tv and Midnights is too similar but you want TS 11 and Reputation like right now yet if it sounds similar you’ll complain about that… give it a rest and be THANKFUL fans for getting 6 albums in under 3.5 years AND a massive world tour with a three and a half hour show.

Disagree? Cool.

But the vultures need to back off.

((Note: when I say you in the post I do not mean the anonymous directly. I’m speaking about fans in general))

I am going to literally DIE if I am forced to continue living without fearless

don’t die…… ur too sexy…. Ahaha 🫦🫦🫦

It's been a year since I joined the dead dad club. They say grief doesn't have a timeline, blah blah blah, but I can still burst into tears so easily when I think of you. I miss you so much. I wanted to see you again, enjoy recovery with you, do life with you. I know it couldn't have been any different, but sometimes I regret my boundary to only communicate via email. You were pushing up against my limits and weren't showing me you'd changed, and I was so scared of the power you hold over me. I was in the middle of dissolving my 11 year partnership and moving across the state and you have always had the power to disintegrate me. But then you got diagnosed and I decided not to do anything and then suddenly you were on life support and gone. I didn't even stay until the end, chose to protect my time and protect my brother, but you died while we were in the air leaving you. This grief has not left. I've always loved you so intensely, hated you so intensely, ignored you so intensely, worshipped you so intensely. I wanted you to be safe, and healthy, and happy, and whole. I hate that it ended like this.

Sometimes I feel like I must be faking it, must be exaggerating it, because who am I to profoundly miss and grieve someone that I'd cut out for the last ten years of his life. I have no right. I must just be dramatic, or self-absorbed, or addicted to pressing the bruise.

But then I feel him love me, I feel the smile, I feel the knowing laugh that's part delight at our similarities, part scoff because he knows I know better. I feel the side hug around my shoulders and the kiss on the top of my head. He was more of a parent to me than she was in so many ways, he was my best friend in ways she wouldn't be and my peers couldn't, and maybe I do only trust people if I feel like they've had similar experiences to mine.. but he was mine and I was his. I am him. It's grounding to imagine him healthy and wanting the best for me, and it's also devastating.

I have AM - I'm not the first one in my family to choose recovery. My mom is better than I give her credit for and I do love her. My brother is the best person on the planet and I adore my bonus sister. I still have family, have support and love and laughter and some understanding. They just won't understand me like he could and that's ok. AM sees me more than I realize. I am loved and safe, happy and healthy, living in wholeness and ease.

I'm still just so sad.
