what are some phancoded songs?

hiiii omg thanks for the ask!! i absolutely love talking about songs i associate with my interests!! (autism has been activated to the highest degree so this will be a long post, you have been warned)

here are some of what i think are classic dnp coded songs:

Guys by The 1975 (i see this as more about the phandom than about dnp tbh but its very very dnp coded no matter how you interpret it) That's So Us by Allie X Still into You by Paramore The Only Exception by Paramore

i have a whole ass 100 song long playlist about dnp but let me give you my favourites that aren't the usual classics:

Eighteen by Pale Waves

This city depresses me But you try to be everything I need We sat on the corner kissing each other Felt like I could finally see in colour I was 18 when I met you Poured my heart out, spilt all my truth I finally felt like I could feel for the first time When I met you

i mean????? thats 2009 dan and phil????? dip and pip??? hello!!??

also fun fact!!: this band is from manchester and this song was written by their non-binary drummer and lesbian lead singer (who lowkey gives lesbian version of dan). you should rlly listen to pale waves. idek if theyve heard of dnp but theyre true phannies to me.

Starlight by Muse

this song, man. never heard of muse until i got into dnp and then i this song was the first one is listened to.

Hold you in my arms I just wanted to hold You in my arms

i feel like it says sth about the expectations of being in a relationship while also presenting yourself on a massive public platform. wanting to be authentic and produce content^tm vs. being closeted and wanting to protect your relationship. 'I will be chasing a starlight, Until the end of my life, I don't know if it's worth it anymore'. Is worth it to constantly push the content out while feeling like a fraud for being inauthentic about your identity? 'And our hopes and expectations, Black holes and revelations'. the future may seem very dark and hopeless sometimes, it may not turn out how we expect or hope, but only once we face instead of fight it (embrace the void etc) we will forgive our past selves and see that the future really is bright. so yes, very dnp coded.

Anniversary by Autoheart

Years of nothing have subsided We have fixed each other up Giving you up? What are you on about? I'll never give up believing in us Giving you up? Now why would I do a thing like that? No I’m not giving you up, no way I will never stop when it comes to you

this song is not only dnp coded (kind of an october 19th theme song) but also has gained a new meaning since the return of dnp games <3. they didnt give up on us. they came back. and we really helped each other get here <3. think about it like that when listening and i guarantee you will be sobbing. the song also has some marriage themes bc theres wedding vows during the bridge so i will just let you live with that <33

Where the Lines Overlap by Paramore

Tracing patterns across a personal map And making pictures where the lines overlap No one is as lucky as us We're not at the end but oh, we already won Call me over And tell me how Well, you got so far Never making a single sound I'm not used to it But I can learn

we werent ready for their comeback / we're still learning to get used to it / just look at them / boiling frog theory / hard phaunch / do i need to say more

Yellow by Coldplay

this song became part of my playlist when phil didnt know a single coldplay song. unfortunately i cant take it serious anymore after dan was turned into a golden pig, then was literally glowing golden during a book event all while #pissyourself4dan was trending and every phannie on twt made their pfps yellow. i will curse your mind to with the lyrics and mental imagery: (im sorry but im also not bc this is how my autism thinks humour works)

Look at the stars Look how they shine for you And everything you do Yeah, they were all yellow ✨✨ Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful ✨✨✨ And you know, you know I love you so 💛

✨✨✨

(im sorry again)

Safe & Sound by Tonight Alive

Dan in BIG: "for the first time since I was a tiny child I actually felt safe."

Nothing compares to what we share I don't have a care in the world Cause even if it all came crashing down, As long as you're around, I'll be safe and sound. 🧡

ending it with a nice one because its beautiful and sappy and its so them afterall. they really won rpf.

thank you for this ask, i enjoyed answering it!! (im sorry for taking so long. im on day 11 of a cold so ive not had much energy.)

flares; a playlist to accompany my fic

(rambles under the cut)

I’ve said this before, but I’m gonna say it again: writing this story has been one of the most rewarding things i’ve ever done. all the comments from fellow chronically ill people, the asks from people who say i taught them something, and everyone who just enjoys the story have made me feel more accepted and welcomed and represented that I’ve felt in so, so long.

last month was the 6 year anniversary of when I got sick. it’s always a bittersweet time for me, a mostly unnoticed reminder of how far I’ve come, and how long this illness has come along with me. but this year, for the first time, I had so much progress to celebrate. so much support at my back, from you guys and irl peeps, that it was better than expected.

this playlist is full of songs that have helped me through my person fibro journey, and full of songs that make me think of flares dnp. I really hope you guys like it and think it fits with the story.

also I recently moved to uni, which is why it’s been so long since an update (I’m sorry, I’m working on it, I promise). thank you guys so much for being the most kind, patient, and understanding readers a fic writer could ever ask for.

love you all,

callie 💛

(ps I hope you guys like the cover art I made for this. I’m actually really proud of the effect and how it kinda makes invisible pain look a little more visible)

[nohshinwoos]

so.. i didn’t know if i wanted to make this post or not but - here i am, making this post

today, january 9th 2018, marks my one year anniversary of watching skam and i wanted to at least acknowledge it somehow - because it did lead to so much more than just being ‘a tv show’. i started s1 on this very day, s2 the next and s3 the day after that - it was an emotional roller coaster to say the least.

(i need to learn to shut up omg 😖 i put this under read more)

i honestly feel so overwhelmed when i think back, so much happened last year that started with skam and turned into so much more, that i don’t even know where to begin!

but i guess i gotta start somewhere... first of all, i have never gotten into a fandom that’s as open and welcoming as i found the skam fandom being. i felt so warm when i got on here and found the most amazing people to talk to. (shoutouts further down for whoever is interested.) also, getting back onto this hellsite is included here - because without skam i wouldn’t be back on tumblr and i wouldn’t have met anyone at all!

second of all, i’m very grateful for skam, because i finally got back to giffing and photoshop. creativity is one of the best things i know, so to finally get to learn more about photoshop and let the creativity just flow was hands down one of most fun things.

the third thing kind of goes with the second thing in a way, because it’s creativity too. i started writing again, because of skam. i wrote my very first skam fic (is it gravity, or are we falling in love?) and i’m writing my second one now! although i’m a slow writer and it’s gonna take forever, but the point is that i’m really doing it - and, i’m really enjoying the creative process of it. another thing, i actually started reading fanfiction - both skam and phan - and that’s a thing i now really enjoy!

and fourth and last thing, all the friends i made this past year - no matter if we still chat or not, i will always consider many people on here to be my friends!

later this month, january 17th, marks a one year anniversary of something else: meeting my best friend @tarjeiandhenrik! viki, my sunshine, my rock, den beste i livet mitt. i can’t believe i’m lucky enough to know you? to call you? my? best? friend? i also can’t believe we have been able to keep a conversation going for every day for (almost) a whole year - must be a guinness world record by now! there’s honestly so many things i could say about you, we’ve made so many memories this past year and that’s just insane. i really can’t believe how much we have in common and how much we feel the same about - at the same time, even. i’ve never felt this close with anyone ever before, this special bond - i’ve never had a best friend before. i’m just so so happy we are part of each other’s lives! and i’m probably forgetting half of what i really wanted to say right now but... thank you for always making me laugh until i cry, or turning my tears into laughter instead. i love you to the end of the universe and back but the universe has no end so i love you infinite. (and that is a line i will forever use because i’m so proud of coming up with that myself wow.) here’s to many more years of friendship 💖 i also hope this is the year we get to meet because that would be so iconic 💖

later in 2017, on september 29th, i made another new friendship and it wasn’t really because of skam (even though we both actually do love skam and i guess i followed you because of skam...?), but it was because of dan and phil. sari, @lionheartnking, i’m so happy i started talking to you! i’m also very happy it’s kinda my fault you fell into this dnp hole... the wildest thing we’ve done (so far) was thinking 20 minutes before dnp dropped tickets for “interactive introverts” in stockholm/malmö that, “hey, maybe we should both try and get tickets for one town each and then decide which city we go to”.. and then exactly 5 minutes before the tickets dropped, we really decided that we would do that. and now... it’s exactly 158 days left until we meet, then meet dip and pip and see them not only once, but twice in the same day! it’s gonna be so much fun! thank you for making me laugh a lot, for fangirling with me (or well... more like caps lock screaming i guess) and for generally being a very good friend, one of the best people i know. i love you 💖

💖 some more people i really love, in no particular order 💖

@jonasnoahvasquez // @cheekyeven // @valttersen // @tessalabessa // @skamly // @theleavesoflorien // @greathalesonfire // @naesheiims // @jinglebanerock // @linneaxskam // @enbynate // @jokahnwald // @tiptopevak // @skamisako // @evennies // @v-ltersen // @isaksredscarf // @deepinskam // @evenskindness // @emmanette // @warlocksarcher // @manonsblackbeak // @dagfordag

i’m sorry if i forgot anyone, my memory really sucks sometimes, but i really love all of you guys so much - thank you to every single one of my followers or anyone who’s interacted with me ever, you guys rock 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

[phandomsecretvalentines]

// happy valentine’s day @the-phil-lester-defense-squad from @stellarlesterr!! <3  for your gift i wrote a dnp valentine’s/anniversary short (featuring pj, louise & sophie as special guests). i also decided to make a moodboard based off of the things you said you liked because i started writing the fic before you answered the ask but i really wanted to add a little something to correspond with ur interests! so the moodboard isn’t technically related to the fic ahah but it’s s’all good

i hope you have a lovely valentine’s day!! enjoy 💓✨🌹 wordcount: 1.9k warnings: none! (sfw) characters: dan, phil, louise, pj and sophie

“Hey Louise? Please tell me we’re almost there now,” Dan groaned as his leant his head back on the car seat dramatically. It was obvious that he was getting impatient.

“Daniel James H., if I have to hear you ask that one more time I might just throw you out the passenger window. I am this close.” Louise scowled from the driver’s seat, though she didn’t do a very good job hiding the amusement in her voice.

“I’d quite like to see that.” PJ laughed quietly. Sophie nodded in agreement while Phil playfully elbowed Dan’s side. Dan simply sighed and remained quiet for the rest of the drive.

The five of them were headed out to commemorate a very special occasion. Valentine’s day was coming up in just a few short days but today’s exact date marked Dan and Phil’s one year anniversary. The two of them had decided they wanted to do something special to combine both occasions but they wanted the evening to be shared with their friends to make it as memorable as possible.

Besides, they’d already had the full day to themselves and still had the night to look forward to, so what better way to spend the evening than by having fun with some of their closest pals?

The trip dragged on for a little while longer. After what felt like an eternity of driving (it felt like that to Dan, at least) the group had arrived. They hopped out of the car and made their way across the car pack to the front entrance of their desired location. PJ, Sophie and Louise bundled into their own trio while Dan and Phil walked together.

Phil’s eyes were flooded with wonder as he and Dan stepped through the entry gates hand in hand. The carnival grounds were coated in a soft glow of amber from the setting sun and each and every one of the amusement rides and food stalls radiated nostalgia. Phil felt a twinge of excitement in his stomach as he glanced around. He couldn’t believe his eyes - nor could he help his facial features lighting up as he was thrown into a state of warm euphoria. Dan noticed the obvious change in Phil’s demeanour and squeezed his hand to silently tell him that he was excited too.

“Whoa…” Phil whispered half to himself. He was clearly speechless. “Whoa.” Dan agreed with a soft laugh. The place looked absolutely breathtaking and it was almost just as they remembered it. Dan and Phil had shared a lot of happy memories at this particular carnival and they held it very close to their hearts. It’d been a long time since they’d last come here and they would’ve been absolutely heartbroken if they’d come to find that it’d closed down.

Their gazes darted from corner to corner as they tried to see through the large mass of people. It was filled to the brim with families, friends and other couples having a lovely time. After realising that their friends had already run off into the crowd, Dan turned to Phil with bright eyes. “So, where to first?”

Phil met his gaze and didn’t hesitate with his reply, “Haunted ghost train! Please? I want to see if it’s still there!”

Dan gave an affectionate roll of his eyes. He knew that the haunted train was undeniably Phil’s favourite attraction here. “You don’t want to save it for the end..?” It only took one look at Phil’s pleading stare to know the answer. “Oh whatever, why not? Let’s just go.”

Fortunately for them the ride was still up and running so they went and queued up. When it was their turn to board Phil almost ended up tripping face-first into the carriage but Dan steadied him with a hand. During the ride Phil ended up clutching on Dan’s side for dear life the entire time while his husband screamed at anything and everything even remotely scary.

Towards the middle, while there was a bit of a short no-spooks intermission, Phil planted a cheeky kiss on Dan’s cheek while he was waiting tensed for any surprises. Dan gasped and starting saying soft curses under his breath while Phil giggled beside him, pleased with his success and his tongue poking through his teeth.

“Sorry, love,” Phil whispered through quiet laughter. He wasn’t one bit sorry.

“Right. Don’t make me toss you onto that pentagram.” Dan hissed as he spotted a decorative goat skull and pentagram out of the corner of his guy. He was glad Phil couldn’t see the adoring looks he kept offering him while they were submerged in darkness. He knew how much Phil loved this ride and he’d give anything to see that same beaming smile and brightness in his eyes that he had right now anyday. But right now he could only make out the faint silhouette of his jawline in the dim lighting at the very most.

Once it was over they left the attraction and began to walk around for a little bit. They decided to play one of the many carnival games lined up on the outskirts just for the hell of it and Dan ended up winning a giant stuffed dog for Phil. Phil was over the moon about this and paraded around the rest of the carnival carrying it proudly.

When they were done with the last of their chosen amusement rides they met up with the group again so they could all eat together. Sophie congratulated Dan for his lucky win at the carnival game that’d earned Phil the oversized plush dog.

“Where are you guys gonna put it?” Sophie laughed in reference to the dog. Louise stared at Phil with one raised eyebrow accompanied by a fond smile. PJ had nothing to say but he was clearly impressed. “I’ll probably just shove it in a cupboard somewhere,” Dan mumbled. “Hey! I already said I wanted to keep it in our room.” Phil whined.

They grabbed some hot food and found themselves a seat in a slightly less busy area of the carnival to eat. The sky had already begun to fade to navy and stars were beginning to scatter across the skyline. It looked beautiful and frankly, quite romantic. Everything felt cozy and safe and in that moment the five of them knew they were sharing the same feeling of comfort.

They ate in comfortable silence until Dan placed down his now empty food container and twisted himself to face his husband. “Hey, Phil?” “Hm?” Phil was drawing silly faces in the hot food container with a chip and some ketchup. He paused his artwork in progress when Dan spoke. Phil noticed that he looked suspiciously fond and in an instant he realised Dan had gotten an idea - He knew that stupid face anywhere.

Without a word Dan flicked his chin towards a miniature ferris wheel in the near distance that’d been hidden by the trees when they’d first walked in. “I know we’ve already finished going on all the rides we wanted to do today but..”

Dan didn’t need to say anymore. Phil immediately stood up from where he was sitting and offered his hand to Dan, the same bright look returning in his eyes. “Let’s do it.”

The two of them had planned out all the attractions they’d wanted to go on prior to coming here but the ferris wheel was unplanned as it was a new attraction that’d been built very recently. Phil handed his plush prize to PJ for him to mind while they were gone and proceeded to pull Dan up from where he sat. The two of them then ran off into the direction of the ferris wheel, each hand clasped warmly in the other.

To their luck the line wasn’t very long and the next cycle was just coming up so they were able to hop into their two-seat carriage in a matter of minutes. They squeezed into the double seat and exchanged soft mutters of anticipation as the ferris wheel took off.

The two of them gazed out the window and were awe-struck by how pretty everything looked. The carnival grands were illuminated with a bright glow. The trees and fences were covered with tendrils of twinkling fairy lights, making everything looked ethereal. Loved ones held each other in their arms in bench seats and there were distant screams from the few people who were on some of the wilder rides, the ones that twist and spun and threw you around.

“Hey look, I think I can see PJ and Soph! Louise too! They’re waving at us!” Phil giggled excitedly as he pointed downwards. He took out his phone to snap a quick picture to show them later.

Dan’s attention was now fully on Phil but his words had flown from one ear out the other. He wasn’t watching the carnival scenery anymore. Right now he possessed such a look of love in his eyes that it looked like it’d been ripped straight from a typical romance movie. His hand crawled along the seat until it laid on top of Phil’s.

At the notice of contact Phil shoved his phone back in his pocket and rested his other hand on top of Dan’s so that he was holding his hand in both of his. He met his eyes with equal warmth, enough to make Dan choke up as his heart twisted with an overwhelming sense of love. This was the same love that had been unfazed for over a decade. From watching Phil through a screen in his teen years to their long awaited marriage one year ago, his affection for him had remained untouched for all of those years. They both knew they were thinking about the same thing. About a similar moment that’d happened a number of years ago on a ferris carriage, when they were still fresh into each other’s lives.

Their carriage had reached the top now. They were sitting amongst the stars.. theoretically. This had been such an amazing first anniversary, better than anything Dan could ever imagine. Now he could safely say the carnival now held a whole new sense of sentiment to them both.

Phil kept his eyes on Dan as he raised his hand up to his lips and kissed it gently. He couldn’t help but to giggle at the blush that was forming in Dan’s cheeks. It was one of Phil’s favourite things about him, though to be truthful that list could go on forever. He then leant forward and cupped his chin in his hand, pulling him in for a long, sweet kiss. Both were mesmerized in the moment. In turn they each let out a wordless, happy and content sigh.

Dan fell gently into Phil’s arms and so he held him close. The stars shone brightly overhead and the carnival continued to roar with distant activity just below. He didn’t want to forget this moment and the way he was feeling right now. It was such a nice feeling. He wished he could hold onto it forever.

“Happy Valentine’s day, bear,” Phil whispered softly into his ear as he twirled a curl of hair around his thumb. He felt Dan shift comfortably in his arms at the use of his all-time favourite nickname. He tilted his head back so he could gaze into his eyes adoringly.

“And happy Anniversary.”
