Dreamers as tumblr users AU
Because my brain can and WILL go off the deep end off absolutely nothing
Mado posts a bunch of art and music with zero tags or description and is famous somehow, she's kinda seen as a cryptid.
Uro throws everything on one blog [anime gifs, recipes, goofy animal vids that she always tags as #THISISMEEEE, funky tunes, ect], she's amassed a large following due to unhinged text posts and drawings of cursed lil guys
Sabi has a gore/macabre horror blog, sometimes posts selfies in goth outfits that Uro reblogs and gushes over in the tags
Sou does gothic writing stuff, he's the kind that takes the writing prompt of the day sorta stuff and runs with it. Also gives long thought out advice when asked and is surprisingly chill. Uro posted a selfie with him once [his face was censored with a cat sticker] and people lost their mind
Tats/Lefia share a blog and sign their post with either ᘛ⁐ᕐᐷ or ⊹₊♚₊⊹ to show who's posting. It's overall really cute stuff but sometimes Tats posts a bunch of depressing shit out of the blue and freaks people out.
Muma and Sometsuki have really simple blogs full of bunnies with random aesthetic posts here and there. Sometsuki's has lo-fi with violin bgm
more random interactions under cut cause I don't wanna drop a tolkein novel of dreamer thoughts in tags.
The closest thing anyone's ever gotten to Mado speaking was when Uro asked if she likes cats and she replied with, "ↀᆺↀ"
People begged Uro to get Mado to say more and she always responds with absurd nonsense like, "I cannot force the Mado to speak, she offers her words as blessings and we should be thankful for when she graces us."
Sometimes Uro's a clown on Tat's post and Tats just responds with "ᘛ⁐ᕐᐷ ✂"
Sabi and Tats did a Silent Hill cosplay together one time [Sabi was Heather Mason, Tats was some little monster child]. People still get surprised every time Tats shows their horror fan side.
Sabi sometimes makes edits/art as covers for Sou's writing and vice versa
It's hilarious seeing Sou's more serious/somber posts get broken up by him responding to some nonsense from Uro like, "Every day I wonder what I did to deserve your acquaintanceship." [uro just replies with, "aw, you know you love me~"]
Muma somehow has a thing like shimeji set up on her blog so you can interact with the little bunnies on it.
#ynfg#not art#rayns rambling#yume nikki fangame#idk what to tag this hepl#iiii miught add more later if more ideas hit#i just got hit with the tired brain no work soooo#wheeeee

- My School President End Notes -
So, I've finally finished watching My School President, after a ton of push from my friends, and here I am! It was a wonderfully sweet, adorable and innocent high school BL show, which stole my heart and made me emotional in too many ways.
In this review, I'll address a few of the best things that I enjoyed the most regarding MSP. So, stay tuned for what's coming ahead!
1. Musicality of the Show
I've never seen a BL show with so many amazing Osts, and musicality stuffed inside it. When I started out with the first episode, I was freaking hooked to the intro, like it was so good. Then the other songs which were introduced later in the show, or which then band has sung, over all I adore and cherish each and every song and composition the show has brought it. There were happy songs, romantic ones, and even realistic ones.
But the best part was how they've had also introduced the funky dancing numbers as well. As a huge music lover, I enjoyed every bit of soaking into the dance and music of the show. The actors did an immaculate job at portraying marvelous skills through their singing and dancing skills, and I just simply loved it all. Music has to be the major theme of the show, over all - because it certainly caught my entire attention just from this aspect.
2. Messages on Following your Dreams
Another strong message that I've felt through out the show was how they've consistently emphasised on the beauty, yearning and struggles of following what one truly loves. What makes the concept more appealing that they've successfully portrayed the realistic harsh side that drags you down from moving ahead. I was utterly heartbroken when Chinzilla didn't win the Hot Wave awards, because personally I've been a massive fan of their music. But once, that part portrayed how life is not always fair, and you'd always have someone who is better than you in every competition in your life, and that part hit hard.
When Gun auditioned for another music show recommended by Tinn, he was disappointed again because he wasn't the best one out there, which is always relatable. Even if we do our best, it is guaranteed that world will treat us kindly. But what matters the most is keep going, polishing your skills and passion, and doing it for the love of it - that is one thing that will fruitfullly keep you motivated on your journey. The constant feeling of giving up, the repetitive defeat of the band members felt too emotional for me, because I could feel it on such a deep level - that was a freaking realistic truth from such an innocently adorable high school BL show.
3. Innocence in Love
My School President has become the quintessence of the first childhood love. The most delicate and sweetest kind of love that blooms between two kids for the first time in their life and the portrayal of this wonderful thing has been successfully executed in the entire show. The confession scene of TinnGun was literally my favourite out of all confesion scenes, maybe because the quick and realistic approach of it. The way Tinn just hinted it out casually when Gun asked, and how even Gun somehow understood exactly what he meant.
The whole interaction was subtle and yet so deep, which actually happens in real life. That's what attracted me the most. I loved how TinnGun represented the purest form of love, without physical vulgarity or lust - it was simply two people wholeheartedly in love. Love is unconditional, love is about seeing the other person happy, and TinnGun have manifested this kind of love effortlessly through their charismatic performance, and I absolutely cherish it.
4. SoundWin
C'mon, I had to mention them because they flourished a new kind of interest in me throughout the show. For me, they were the most appealing part of the show - I was always looking out for more of their chemistry and interactions. I think SoundWin had the best kind of love story development I've seen so far - realistically speaking. When these two first were introduced to one another, has anyone of us thought they're gonna be a thing? Well, not for me. They two had the most casual and realistic romantic development that I absolutely loved.
Their love wasn't based on first sight or physical attraction, but as they proceeded on getting to know one another, getting to share personal stories with one another, they fell. Honestly, their chemistry is extremely sizzling, prove me wrong. Like their bandmates say, even when they bicker, chemistry is overflowing and I totally agree with that. It was so satisfying to see how Win silently cares for Sound when he had wrist pain, or how Sound constantly looks out for Win especially he's feeling broken, especially after the Hot Wave. I just am being fan of cute bickering couples, so automatically SoundWin just effortlessly pulled me in.
5. Packed with Supportive Characters
The show has the perfect combination of the best supporting characters ever, whether it is about the positive parenthood from the parents of TinnGun, or about the genuine friendship that is emphasised among the band teammates. I've immensely enjoyed how genuine, well-wishing people are around this entire show. It depicts how there are actually kind people around who are willing to have your backs and always end you whenever you're feeling down. My favourite supportive characters has to be Tiw, and TinnGun's parents. Tiw has been the best boy throughout the series, with innate helpfulness along with multitasking to help out others - Tiw is a marvelous character.
He has always got Tinn's back - it doesn't matter if he has to be a MV director, tutor, promoter or even a dancing coach, he is ready for all of it, if it helps his friends. On the other hand, the parents of the show displayed the ideal parenthood that must be looked up to. The fact that despite being of different mindsets, both TinnGun's parents had the welfare and happiness of their children in their minds all the time. They never forced their children, but tried to understand them and encourage them who they are and what they love. I hope more parents start achieving this standard, because this united efforts makes the world a much better place.
My School President is a charming cute BL show, that has stole my heart with it's wonderful characters, shared passion for dreams and most importantly the positivity that it portrayed. It surely has be the most green-flag BL I've ever watched. From the healthy handling of conflicts to the sweet pure interactions between two high-schoolers - this BL is another unique addition to chain of the most beautiful BL shows ever made.

🎶✨️when you get this, put 5 songs you actually listen to, then publish. Send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (positivity is cool)🎶✨️
Oooh I love this thank you!! Buckle up peeps I like some weird shit huehuehue 1- Funky and upbeat af- I freaking LOVE Big Gigantic; there's just something about electronic music that also has a sax in it lmao~ Great tune to just lay back and vibe to with a joint.
2- And now for something COMPLETELY different: I am a sucker for latin choirs in general. Mix that with classical and electronic music? Apashe is a visionary and everything he touches becomes a banger.
3- Let's go clubbing! This feels so nostalgic 'cause it remixes an oldie but goldie track by Safri-Duo and gives it a new yet distinctly 90's feel and it makes me astral-project every time I hear it.
4- Let's pepper in a little bit of drum'n'bass in this year of 2024! The original is so good but this remix works so damn well I think I like it better lmao
5- Let's finish it up with a dark, gritty mid-tempo beat. Love love love REZZ. I've been obsessed with this song since it came out; it kind of brings out my inner slut lmao
That's all folks!

off of that album, it was very hard to pick favorites, but overture and acid queen are prob my top picks, i love songs with vocals but instruments always go so hard too! i feel like i listen to instrumental songs so much, they always help me focus more :) do you have any favorite instrumentals? my favs, in no particular order would have to be anybody there by rainbow, yyz by rush, forbidden city by marty friedman, eruption by van halen, or son of alerik by deep purple, but also think i'll be adding the overture from tommy by the who to my list as well!
-pickle
Good instrumentals are beating everything really! Oh yes, I do have a long list of favorite instrumentals, both from bands and video games, so without further ado!
First bands - one for each: - Bonzo's Montreux by Led Zeppelin - I know, I know, it's a drum solo, but it's an instrumental so I'm throwing it here! - Flying by The Beatles - probably the only one they have on their studio albums, but I could forget about something. Either way, I love it, mainly for its atmosphere - Rockestra Theme by Wings - BONZO ON DRUMS! ENOUGH SAID! - The Mule by Deep Purple - IAN'S DRUM SOLO, ENOUGH SAID! - Cobwebs and Strange by The Who - as much as I love "Overture", "Quadrophenia", "The Rock", "The Ox", this is a fucking goat and I will defend this crazy piece of chaotic music with MY LIFE
And now to games - three for each, focusing on personal favorites: Earthboud: - Smiles and Tears - end credit theme. You know, you are at the end of a childhood adventure and you hear this while photos that were taken throughout the game by a photographer who tells you to say "Fuzzy Pickles!" each time roll on the screen... It just brings tears every time to my eyes - Because I Love You - the theme that plays when everything's over and you're walking back home. I'm a sentimental piece of shit, I love this tune so much! - Boy Meets Girl - I had troubles with choosing between this and two other town themes, but this one just sounds nostalgic to me. Maybe because while watching a let's play from it when I was tiny and when replaying the game each year I tend to stand and do nothing, listening to the theme. I just love it <3
Rayman 3: - The Fairy Council - Under The Starlight - again, a very nostalgic tune. It just sounds freaking magical <3 - The Land of the Livid Dead - otherworldly sound for a world with spirits in them. They don't make such music in games anymore *sobs* - The Summit Beyond the Clouds - snowy land with Christmas like music. Don't get fooled tho, those levels are harsh XD
Rayman 1: - First Steps - funky music very catchy, absolute favorite of the entire game! - The Stalactites' Teardrops - cave music, but WHAT a cave music! - Venomous Mr Skops - and let's give some final boss' of the world music going! The boss is shit, the stage after him is even worse, this whole game is unfair, BUT this boss theme kicks ass - DRUMS DRUMS DRUMS
Silent Hill 2: - Promise - this instrumental, this fucking guitar, THIS FUCKING EVERYTHING IN THIS ONE, BUT MOSTLY THE GUITAR. I shit you not, I had this tune on my phone ring for two years, only changed it because I felt like it, but I love it - this started the theme that my phone ring has to have an instrumental with a guitar in it - Theme of Laura - opening music theme, I get shivers by hearing it. I'm all about drums but the guitar in this one and the guitar in general, so dark, I fucking love it! - Terror in The Depths of The Fog - an unusual track, but the beat somehow gets into your eardrums, drilling slowly, not to mention the noise that gets louder later on, soundtrack to this entire fucking game is a motherfucking masterpiece, go listen to it
Ib: - Old Puppet - first instrumental in any game that made me uneasy and I was what? 12 years old maybe? Or a bit older - Memory - only musicbox, but what a good musicbox joined by other sounds later on - Dining Room - the piano in this one, GOSH. It's somehow calm at first and then it gets creepy. Just <3
Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards: - Miracle Matter Battle Theme - kicking off with a boss theme, the best one in the game for me. Quick, intense, what only Kirby music has to offer! - Inside The Ruins - I love weird music and this is the peak of it - Pop Star Theme - the "ding dong" gets me every time, I love this chaos
Kirby's Return to Dream Land: - Welcome Your New Overlord - final boss music again, because it slays. Quick, chaotic, intense the general peak of this game soundtrack - AND THE TEMPO CHANGES!!! - Otherworldly Warrior - heavy metal in Kirby? You bet your ass it is there and it's as fast paced as you could imagine. Only once did I get to fight with Galacta Knight and it was worth it. Difficult but worth it, for this tune only! - Techno Factory - plays at one of my favorite stages in Egg Engines, what could I want more?
Ace Attorney series: - Detention Center ~ Prisoner's Elegy - probably the most depressing tune in the entire series - counting in the first four games I've played only - is my favorite. The piano is a killer, I can't help it - Victory! ~ The First Victory - I was mad about this one when I heard it for the first time. It still has a special place in my heart <3 - Damon Gant ~ Swimming, Anyone? - *throws his theme here, because I love this asshole way too much* also it sounds so badass!
Undertale: - Waterfall - best tune in the entire game. Plays in a cave of some sort, with history of the world and memories seem to flow around, like soft petals of the blue flowers you can find there. Water giving that otherworldly feeling <3 - Spider Dance - old, retro, Toby Fox at his best, nothing will convince me otherwise - Respite - did you notice that I like a sad sounding piano? Not yet? Then check this one out
Deltarune: - Field of Hopes and Dreams - first one that caught my attention in this game, it has a special place in my heart as well - A Town Called Hometown - it's incredible how you can put the feeling of longing and family atmosphere into music, eh? - Spamton - this one is better than "Big Shot" somehow for me. Probably because of the sus atmosphere in it
Deponia series: - How About a Bit More Enthusiasm - for such a cheerful game this one is very depressing, but also beautiful in a way <3 - Life Goes On - a bit of hope in this one, but it hits more harder when you know the story, especially that when you first play the third game in the series you somehow start to feel like there's not gonna be a happy end. The tune somehow spoils it, very subtly - Dark and Dirty Fairy Tales - like from a fairy tale, right? Playing in the sewers actually
Homestuck - honorable mention with only one track, because I still need to finish reading it to judge properly, but this: - Descend - is a fucking masterpiece
#I also skipped on the entire final fantasy because picking three tracks of each game?#that is impossible#still if you're curious I recommend soundtracks of#final fantasy II. VI. VII. IX and X#those are the ones I'm familiar with#and I recommend them with all my heart <3#srs23

OKAY I've gathered my thoughts and I am back with more octotrio headcanons!!! I felt kinda bad having such a heavy bias but then I realized most of us have a bias towards them and felt better XDD
Starting with Azul!! Azul does drag and is absolutely a drag queen, it makes SENSE!!! He is canonically based off a drag queen (Ursula is based on a drag queen and Azul is based on Ursula)!!!!! He's such a theater kid this is just a branching path of that, he loves attention and praise and the DRAMA!! He was made for this I KNOW it! Also also, he's totally been spoiled with land beds and comforts, like he's got the biggest bed and all the pillows and blankets and comforters, he has multitude weighted blankets for that sweet sweet squish, he's like the princess and the pea when something is out of place in his perfectly designed nest of comfort. Also I'm pretty sure this is canon, but like Azul is so freaking strong?? Like something rolls under a sofa at the lounge and he's like "ugh fine" and lifts it up with one hand and is like "well?? Grab the stupid thing, I have things to do" and people are just staring at him because WOAHHHH,,, STRONG! Azul let's Floyd do the squeezing because if he himself were to get angry with someone anf squeeze them, it would be FATAL. Like all ribs broken, spine snapped, didn't stand a damn chance. And now it's time to project againnn!!! So when octopi get bored/understimulated, they start biting and tearing off their own limbs because they simply cannot cope, and Azul is an octopus AND autistic so when he's understimulated he 100% starts biting his nails, his cuticles, his knuckles, until his hands are just messed up and scarred (why he prefers to wear gloves) and in his mer form his tentacles aren't safe either, he gets stressed or too bored and he just starts nibbling, someone get this boy a game or a puzzle STAT. Speaking of nibbles, his blood is blue!! In his mer form it's not super noticeable, but in his human form where humans with his complexion usually have warm pink or red undertones, his is a cool blue. When he's flustered or embarrassed he blushes blue! Do you SEE my vision it's GOD TIER!!!! His pupils are also rectangular like an octopus, sorry I don't make the rules (I'm not sorry and I do).
Next is Floyd!! Okay. So. His playlist is the BIGGEST mix bag of genres ever, he has all KINDS of funky tunes on there but the key ingredient is ENERGETIC!!! He needs music that's LOUD and CHAOTIC and he can DANCE TO, doesn't matter what it's about he just needs that ENERGY!!!!! Also this is random but, he's been humbled by bugs on multiple occasions. Like, he comes to land and he thinks it's so funny how people are scared of such small fry! So silly so stupid!! And then he gets stung by a wasp and his mood is ruined for a WEEK, nobody can tell him SHIT while he recovers, he's never been more upset in his life (lies). He also has beef with mosquitoes, like what do you MEAN on land there's bugs so tiny you can barely see them, can't even FEEL when they bite you, and they TAKE your BLOOD???? And they have the audacity to leave this big red itchy spot after they STEAL from you!!! He couldn't be more angry if he tried!!!! Not to mention the little fuckers have PREFERENCES and swarm him while Jade is left completely untouched!!! Azul gets some too but never as many as Floyd, he is so so bitter. OH OH ALSO HE WEARS DRESSES AND SKIRTS!!! They remind him of a jellyfish when he spins and they aren't constricting!!! He loves the flowy loose ones and loses his MIND when he can find a dress or skirt with pockets, it will immediately become his favorite article of clothing until he finds a new favorite next week!! He also loves using fun phone cases and phone charms, cool colorful shoelaces and beads, all kinds of stuff to express himself with fashion without the tight feeling of clothes!!!
It's JADE TIME BABY!! So, Jade is mainly appearance headcanons because I know in my heart he is alt as hell, like on campus he's all business and suits, but if you see him just going about his day on the island? ALT ALT ALT ALT!!!! He's punk as hell dude, custom jacket and big platform boots and all! He makes his own mushroom patches and pins, has wildlife conservation patches and mountain patches, frogs, deer, all kinds of fun land animals that he loves!! He also has slightly longer hair, but when he's not in business mode he ties it up in a small pony to show off his side shave on either side!! He has snake bites, dimple piercings, basically every possible ear piercing, a septum, eyebrow piercing, nose bridge pierced, he's got it ALL!!! He wears fingerless gloves too, or if it's a no glove day he wears tons of rings!!
TRIO HEADCANONS!! Okay so the gang all just decided to use he/him on land to make things easier for land dwellers and their silly little boxes of gender, but all of them either have no gender to begin with or a gender so complex and cosmic in nature it cannot be properly described/addressed. When they're alone though, Floyd and Azul will actually use she/they pronouns for Jade more often than he/him saying it "just feels right, I dunno". Jade agrees, but she doesn't really care what pronouns people use at the end of the day, just don't make her make your pronouns was/were.
BONUS RUGGIE??? Listen this is so random but so correct- Ruggie's taste in music mainly consists of female rappers. DONT ASK ME HOW WE GOT HERE, just know I'm right. He told me himself, okay? He's working and has his ear buds in and it's Megan Thee Stallion blasting, he told me so I know.
AAAND DONE (for now)!! Also if I maybe perhaps made a playlist of songs I think Floyd with listen to, would you like me to send it over? It'll be full of bangers, trust. Also like with all my ramble asks no proof read so God speed reading this SJSGSJSHDHJDVF
I SQUEAALLLEDDDDD EEEHEHEHEE THESE ARE SO SO SO GOOD >__<!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to reread tjos over again so many times- not bc I didn't understand anything- but because of just how right you are I needed to try to absorb the info into my system... Love when people do long long rants like these I am such a listener and I love reading but responding always gets my ass... beats me down,... Me taking an entire 2 days to figure out how to word one (1) sentence. /hj I just think it's funny (update on this I've been typing for hours my hands are starting to cramp and I haven't even written that much)
I absolutely love it when people draw/write Azul to have square pupils, n'd other... octopus-like features yu kno... I didn't know octopi bit off their limbs?? (I'm guessing they also grow them back, I wish I could do that wtf???) Azul being so super strong also SPEAKS to me, I don't think u mentioned this but I also love it when people draw Azul to be plus sized (so real, exactly like god intended/silly) AND ALSO WITH SPLATOON STYLE OCTO-HAIR LMAOO I just remembered one of my friends draws Azul with that kind of hair and it made me laugh so hard /pos
FLOYD BEING INTO DRESSES/SKIRTS?? I'M GOING BONKERS INSANE I'M IN LOVE FOR REAL?? I NEED to draw them in more skirts now thank you so much for this... He's gunna look so cute for real... And also in game; For the guest room and friendship stuff Floyd likes cute and Unique things!! That's so adorable I'm screaming they're literally just a little (crazy) guy >__<//....... !!!!!!!!!! I can do so much with this information. slams fist on table. I'm in art block rn though and I'm so UPSET. LET ME DRAW. Also him having beef with bugs is so real and so me. I also hate mozzies AND YES THEM HAVING FUCKING PREFERENCES ??? HELLO?? LEAVE ME ALONE. crying emoji!
I love twins with opposite aesthetics, I always forget that Jade is (canonically?) into punk/alt fashion, whenever I go to draw him out of uniform I get stumped like. "was he the one who liked that fashion.. or someone else like am I trippin' did I imagine that..." But now I can draw F n' J in opposite clothing styles... Jade being punk/alt is so mecore like she's just like me for real. Also I really like mallejade as a ship/even just as friends but the goth/alt duo?? going out on dates and being so tall and scaring people so bad?? I already think Malleus loves wearing dresses that reach the ankles and tall dainty shoes... If NRC had a female uniform I think Malleus would own a set. Along with a lot of other characters but I don't feel compelled to list them all right now (the transfems are taking over the all-boys school!! oh no!!! /hj)
I often use she/they/he for the trio cuz I completely agree!! They are so gender non-conforming... they are so genderfuck... they are so all pronouns they are so pansexual?? they are so. weird little thangs. /aff The way they all use he/him on land just to accommodate HUMANS and their STUPID gender boxes is more of a Azul/Jade idea- Floyd being the one they have to convince to do the same. Even though Floyd doesn't care how people decide to perceive them, and they'd probably get he/him'd anyway, I like to think sometimes she causes problems by going "oh my god... you.. misgendered me?? how could you do this to me I'm. I'm so hurt. I actually use [insert very long list of pronouns INCLUDING neopronouns just to mess with people] :/// How could you not know that about me." Just a silly thing I think would happen hee hee...
Ruggie listening to female rappers is so real no I was also told my him in person he showed me his playlist... since we on the topic of music as well I think Malleus listens to like Radiohead, The Smiths, Horror Vacui, Male tears, sometimes Muse and Nirvana- He dips his toes into Death/Black metal/screamo sometimes due to Lilia's influence. He doesn't like it a LOT but he likes being close to people through things they like so he basically tricked himself into liking that genre of music... Adorable methinks I like to mention this a lot and I don't remember if I did last time but Floyd PTV + MCR liker + 6arleyhuman + Maneskin... And funky video game ost's !! if you let me keep talking I could probably assign most of the students a music taste because I know I'm right. Also Azul and Vil both love Lady Gaga. Vil likes Destiny's Child. Cater is a kpop stan and only listens to girl groups. Riddle likes Lawfey, Aurora and City And Colour. Idia likes songs that were popular in 2015-20 because of gacha videos on youtube, preppy anime songs and also video game ost's from his favourite games. ANYWYSSYDSHUY -- ANYWAYS YES YES I'D LOVE TO HEAR THE PLAYLIST??? PLEASE !!!! :DDDDD
#arvy asks#I love you guys and your creative minds#<33#this also isn't proofread so like DW HAHAHAH#speaking of which#sorry if anything doesn't make sense#lololol

goLFING???? OF ALL THE SPORTS. YOU CHOSE GOLF??????

OR SO YOU THOUGHT
you have to move back and forth and all around to collect the golf balls
idk much about golf tho
im not sure if ive ever played actual golf
i dont think id like it tho
the only golf i like is the director of the eclipse
and golf on the wii, thats fun
i got sidetracked talking about golf
shARING ROOMS BASED ON THE TEAMS??? damn wat, you're brutal
hes probably just trying to keep his mind as clear as possible, which wont happen if the couples sleep in the same rooms as each other lmao
"to be honest, im worried about thua" well what on earth does that mean
are you just referencing all the times you were worried about thua when he was hanging out with aye
ARE YOU SPECIFICALLY REFERENCING THE TIME THUA WAS AT YOUR HOUSE STUDYING, AND YOU SAID "youre always spending time with aye, im jealous" (or something along those lines) AND THEN COVERED IT UP SAYING YOURE JUST WORRIED ABOUT HIM??
ARE YOU SUBTLY TRYING TO SAY YOURE JEALOUS OF AYE COS YOU CANT SLEEP IN THE SAME ROOM AS YOUR BOYFRIEND??
cos if so
i. i picked up on that. and that feels important for everyone to know. and now you know.
"aye. dont touch thua" lmao calm down bro
(read this to the tune of the sitting in a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g song from when we were like 12) WAT AND NAMO, SHARING A ROOM. F-U-C---
"so what did you and aye argue about?" "...we didnt" bro dont lie
in all honesty, aye gives great advice. like, he always seems to know the right thing to say to help someone make a decision and stuff
oh no
communication issues
why must there be communication issues
pls guys just talk to each other
akk, all you gotta do is tell aye how youre feeling
thua, all you gotta do is tell kan what you would like and need
aye and kan, listen
its really simple, guys, its really not hard at all in the slightest
jeez thats a standoff and a half (note: wat is leaning on namo's shoulder. just something for everyone to observe.)
bro why do you have to be shirtless
thank you namo for saying what we're all thinking
aight theyre all playing in the water now, and playing in the water tends to make akk and aye feel better and stuff
THEY ALL LOOK LIKE THEYRE HAVING SO MUCH FUN
NO IM GONNA CRY AGAIN
BUT ENTIRELY BC I LOVE THIS GROUP SO MUCH
THE HAPPINESS IS STRONG
noooooo namo dont have an existential crisis about graduating and growing up and saying goodbyes and potentially never seeing your friends again, you'll set me off into one of my own
"will you forget me?" "we will." lmao rip namo i guess
damn that phone is loud, how can they hear it over the river. its almost like... like it was edited in in post or something. hmmmmmmmmm
of coURSE AKK'S BIRTHDAY ISNT BROUGHT UP TIL AYE LEAVES THE AREA
its fine tho bc aye knows its akk's birthday. right? he knows, right? im sure he knows. hes gonna surprise akk. r i g h t ? ? ?
i like these funky little friendship bonding sessions, its very nice
sponsorship timeeeee
THEY USE THE SAME PRODUCTS- SOBBING AGAIN
i know they probably bought them at the same time from the same store or something but thats not the point its still super cute
COMMUNICATION ISSUES WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME
JUST SAY WHAT YOURE THINKING
YOUVE BOTH LITERALLY SAID TO EACH OTHER 'youre allowed to be weak. at least around me.'
SO BE FREAKING WEAK, TELL HIM EVERYTHING ON YOUR MIND SO THAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER BETTER AND MAKE UP AND BADABING BADABOOM HAPPINESS
SONG??
SONG
SONGGGG
is song the way that they communicate
i knew this would happen. i literally know this would happen.
just cos theyre assigned different rooms to their partners, it doesnt mean theyre gonna actually abide by those rules. theyre just gonna switch. badabing badaboom everyone is gay
"can you stop asking already?" "why?" "if you dont stop talking, how can i kiss you?" brooooooo
IT'S LIKE EPISODE 7, BUT BETTER, BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY SUCCEED THIS TIME
GOOD JOB, GAYS GUYS, YOU DID IT. IM PROUD OF YOU. COS MAN EPISODE 7 WAS FRUSTRATING
but its all good now
THEY BOTH PLAY GUITAR
HOW WAS I NOT AWARE OF THIS
OHHH AKK IS LEARNING GUITAR
GRJHBGDK
okay theyre talking to each other, finally
its gonna end in another argument probably but at least akk is getting towards telling aye how hes making him feel rn and theyre communicating and working it out
aye, ily, and i know youre tryna make him feel better, but this isn't solving the problem
yeah hes cute when hes angry, but he doesnt like being angry with you because (as he has just tried to tell you) it makes him feel like youre aggravating him on purpose for no reason and makes him question your relationship.
akk, youre also at fault here because you didnt talk to him sooner about your thoughts and feelings
but right now in the current moment aye is being a little bit mean and a little bit silly (but not silly in the fun way)
theyre making out now tho. but they still havent made up.
its fine, theyll get to that tomorrow.
well, technically tonight. it's 2am.
speaking of that tho, IVE FINISHED THE EPISODE, FINALLY
talk about time blindness, it takes me three times the amount of time that the episode actually takes to watch it
final thoughts: i am excited for tomorrow (tonight??), this episode was very very very good, the eclipse makes me happy, happy is good, i need to go to sleep
goodnight folks! this will be even more incoherent next episode because ill be even more exhausted than i am now! byebyeeeeee

Once Bitten, Twice Shy
- Ian Hunter
Just in Case You Never Heard the Original! ; )
youtube
I love the way they danced in the 70's. I've seen old T.V. shows from that time period and I get such a kick out of watching them get down. I mean, they really got into it!
I freaking love this song. It tells such an interesting story, you know? I think it was great that Great White covered it in the 80's. I'll post the remake next. They only changed it slightly. I don't think the writer, Ian Hunter - who you see here, singing the tune - was crazy about the remake because he felt it was missing the swing. To him the remake sounded flat. I mean, i get that, lol. They made a modern rock song. He had this hip, 70's, funky, bluesy number. But I love them both. This guy wrote a great song. Ian Hunter is such a cool cat.
(I can't help but think about all those bands on the road and all those groupies and highway honeys they picked up along the way. To all you groupies out there ... born in the wrong decade.)
Once Bitten, Twice Shy
- Great White (written by Ian Hunter)
Just in case you never heard the cover! ; )

For the ask game you reblogged I’m going for ivy, taro, orchid and edelweiss (you don’t have to do all of them if you don’t want to). Besides that, I hope life has been kind to you and that you are doing well! 💖
Ooo these are tough and under a cut because I like to talk a lot
Ivy: what are your ‘tells’ for your emotions and moods? how can someone tell you’re happy, annoyed, upset or tired?
When I talk i use my hands a lot so I know that when I’m excited I like. just go EVERYWHERE. I have hit multiple people and I feel so bad about it. when I’m happy about something I have caught myself hand stimming a few times/jumping up and down.
Usually when I’m tired/done in a conversation I just completely tune out and space so far I reach the andromeda galaxy lol. If it’s way too much I’ll put in earbuds because a solid consistent bass/beat gives me a kind of undertone to focus on.
Taro: if someone called you right now to catch up, what’re the things you’d tell them about?
I really hate to say this but I probably wouldn’t respond. I am uh. Very Not Social. Phone calls/texting/emails kinda freak me out because I can’t read the conversation as well.
If someone came up to me in person though, I’d definitely respond. Probably just say like hi, how’s it going, still working at [place], how’s [university] is it fun, etc.
Orchid: what’s a song you consider to be perfect?
Bear with me because I’m about to show my whole soul here. Ik it’s like cringe or whatever but I’m cringe and I am free. Imagine dragons Amsterdam. I listened to it when I was like 15 and cried. Very personal song to me.
I’ve also gotta say some weathers songs of course. Rehab, Umbrella company, sucker, casual mondays, shallow water. Not in any particular order but I did make about 36 gifs from the rehab music video so I think you’ll know which one if my favorite. I wish wish wish I could add carsick because I SCREAM it whenever it comes on my playlist but there’s one. single. line. That I just don’t like. Yes it’s the words cut like a knife line.
Everything else about that song is stunning though. 10/10 would destroy my vocal chords
Edelweiss: how’d you think of your url/username? what’s it associated with to you?
So uh. Bear with me again here. As a kid my username for EVERYTHING was preppycat. It is still saved somehow in my phone’s autocorrect (even though I didn’t have a phone at the time) and I think my early early days roblox account still exists. It was taken from this. I’m so sorry that you had to listen to that.
We travel a few years after that and holy shit the original marvel avengers is everywhere. My friends and I decide to draw each other that cat avengers. Catvengers if you will. We made fun little portmanteaus of our names with avengers characters and/or words related to cats. (I.e. Lokitty. Adorable.)
All that to say it’s like 3 generations of changes from my name with an avenger and a cat, now completely unrecognizable to what it once was. I love it.
Now it’s definitely associated with the semi-persona that goes with it for me. I think “lica” And I don’t think of me watching avengers, I think of some funky little [gender] with a mask and some suspenders.
Thanks for asking because I had a great time completely exposing myself to the world lmao. Hope you’re doing well also and be sure to drink water and have some snacks!!

⚡ A song that my muse would listen to
↳ -— 🎵 // (meme)
Drum n' Bass never leaves this little freak's playlists. Man looks like he lives and breathes symphonies and Beethoven and shit (and he does love a good composition don't get me wrong) but he does love his funky little edm tunes.

Laetitia Sadier & Radio Outernational Live Show Review: 3/12, Empty Bottle, Chicago
Laetitia Sadier
BY JORDAN MAINZER
Laetitia Sadier's set Tuesday night at Empty Bottle was a mix of idealism, determination, and empathy. Such a combination exemplifies the connotation of the very title of her first solo album in 7 years, Rooting For Love (Drag City). Like her work with Stereolab, Rooting For Love employs a wide array of instrumentation--guitar, bass, synth, organ, trombone, vibraphone, live and programmed drums, zither, vocals--to present songs that are simple-sounding in execution, but deceptively complex. For every foray into lounge funk, there's an off-kilter psychedelic freak-out; in combination with Sadier's spirituality and collectivism, it makes for an album that you can deeply explore as much as you can vibe to.
Tuesday, Sadier, on stage alone, pointed to her synthesizer and joked, "This is the band...It's the same every night." In a way, playing to recordings and samples seems to occupy its own, different level of difficulty, as you can't as easily improvise your way out of messing up. Thankfully, Sadier not only nailed it, but employed a looper and processed her scraggly guitar playing to build up and tear down her compositions, adding unexpected chaos for those in the crowd who had voraciously consumed the new record. "Protéïformunité" featured washy noise and a drum beat, Sadier immersing herself in the music to the point of dancing, as she sang mantras like "L’objectif est de limoger l’ignorance, d’interrompre le cycle sans fin de la souffrance,” or, "The goal is to remove ignorance, to interrupt the endless cycle of suffering." Again, as with Stereolab, Sadier showed that visionary ideas can sound, simply, pleasant.
Of course, while you wouldn't describe Sadier as a realist, she's also certainly unafraid to confront, and Tuesday, she performed the two most provocative tracks from Rooting For Love. "Don't Forget You're Mine", co-written with Veronique Vincent (of Belgian avant-rock band Aksak Maboul), tells the story of an academic couple whose more-successful husband is threatened by his wife's sudden success to the point where he torments her with psychological and physical abuse. It was here where Sadier warped her beatific guitar playing into something more fuzzy, as if to emphasize the skin-crawling nature of what she was singing about, contrasting the lovely timbre of her voice. On the studio version, she repeats, from the point of view of the abuser, "Get up, babe!" over siren-like instrumentation, like a plea to society to eliminate internal and external toxicity. "Cloud 6", meanwhile, started with chopping and screwing her operatic vocals, her trombone pulsating on the off-beat of the arpeggiated synth line, before turning more clear. Sadier waxed about how the process of fear encapsulates a wholesale turning away from humanity; "How can you be seen and known and loved when you have your armor on," she asked? The song ended with her most frank declaration: "This armor is keeping you from the gifts I've given you / I'm not fucking around / You're halfway dead." In the context of not only Sadier's songs that decry capitalism and war, but the world today in general, "Cloud 6" was a call to wake up.
Radio Outernational's Aaron Shapiro, Kenthaney Redmond, Hunter Diamond, & Wayne Montana
Opening for Sadier was local quintet Radio Outernational, who features three current members of funk-punk heroes The Eternals. While Radio Outernational haven't released any recorded music, they've been playing around town since last year, clear in their chemistry. Flutist and saxophonist Hunter Diamond and flutist Kenthaney Redmond effectively harmonized, one often trailing the other, especially on the songs that employed dual flute. Guitarist Aaron Shapiro offered funky licks rife with swirling wah wahs and prickly stabs. The rhythm section, bassist Wayne Montana and drummer Areif Sless-Kitain, propelled the slinky tunes, providing a bed for the other three players to flourish. Radio Outernational was a wholly appropriate opener for Sadier, as it was almost like they were the physical manifestation of the type of cosmic cooperation she sings and dreams about.

Reasons to Love First Kanaphan: A Prodigy in Thai BL Industry [ Part 4 ]
First Kanaphan Puitrakul is gradually becoming one of the best thailand actors right now, who is still emerging to fame, with his exceptional acting skills, charismatic presence, and heart-winning smile.
As an absolute fan of his works, today my mission is to encourage everyone to discover him, to feel the strongest emotions through his acting, and witness another fascinating actor rise up in the industry through his hard works, relentless dedication, and talent.
I've already talked about the third reason in my previous post, so this time - let's talk about the next reason for loving our beloved big baby boy; First!
Check Out The Previous Reason
Stay tuned for I'll be posting each reason once in a while. Otherwise it would be a pretty lengthy blog, and I honestly I cannot just squeeze everything about him in one place. So, here we go!
Reason 4:
First is Adorable ASF
Okay, you can't just keep watching First Kanaphan all day, and his acting without falling for his constant cuteness and sweetness, because he is the most adorable person I've ever seen in my whole life. I've never seen someone being this illegally adorable and lovable all time. He's a big baby - I repeat HE'S A BIG BABY. I've seen all GMMTV actors treating him so lovingly, always caressing his cheeks or head, he is just so lovable and sweet to everyone. It is just impossible not to adore him, while watching his fluffy cute antics. It will simply make your heart melt. This man has every power to make anyone's heart soft for him, just by the way he acts onscreen and offscreen.
Like, have you seen his puppy doe eyes and his magnetic wide smile? They'll be the death of you if you stare at him for too long. These days, I'm struggling to watch his next series, because I'm now too scared I'll SERIOUSLY fall for him, and that's just so aching for me. This young man is a treasure trove to this century, and I mean it.
I haven't watched, "Wake up Ladies", but when I saw a few clips of his acting in that show, I freaking screamed. He looks so funky, quirky and hilarious. He's such a comfort character in there. If you're having a bad day, watch a few sweet videos of First, they'll uplift your mood, and make you smile so wide, as if you've lived vicariously through his happiness. It's priceless.
Whenever I watched episodes of "The Shipper", I barely stayed silent for too long, because every now and then, I kept squeaking under my breath, saying, "How can he be this cute!??" OR "Omg, He is sweet asf, omg he's so damn cute, MY HEART". Yes, I just kept doing these all the time, and everytime I watched a fantastic acting scene of him, where he simultaneously acted adorable as well? I kept repeating that exact scene for over 10 times, and I don't regret it, because if you love cuteness, you will definitely love him. I just don't know what to say anymore, his cuteness makes me so happy, it makes me breathe. As a certified BL lover, all I want is to see him act cute all day, with his exceptionally endearing smile - which will soon bring us to the next point in my next post.
That's it for today!
See you next time with the next reason!
#first kanaphan#bl drama#the eclipse#not me's yok#bl actors#reasons to love first kanaphan#sorry can’t talk rn thinking about first#he comes in first place. get it? ha ha ha ha#first kanaphan <3#wake up ladies ryu#kim the shipper

LIST
YES, YES, Y'ALL: THE 25 DOPEST EARLY RAP SONGS
By Stereo Williams
Published Thu, August 11, 2022 at 12:00 AM EDT
August 11, 1973 is widely celebrated as Hip-Hop's birthday. It's the day that Clive "DJ Kool Herc" Campbell and his sister Cindy Campbell, threw a "Back To School" jam at the address of 1520 Sedgwick Avenue in the Bronx. It was at this party that Herc debuted a new technique of extended the break of popular records by mixing two records of the same song together. It was an innocent spark that spread like revolutionary wildfire.
Hip-Hop's true first wave wasn't made up of recording artists. These were creatives coming together in a community across the South Bronx and eventually other parts of New York City. But by the end of the 1970s, DJs and graffiti artists and breakers had provided a foundation on which emcees could launch viable careers, and rap records became a reality. Labels like Sugar Hill and Enjoy Records scooped up acts from across Uptown and the Bronx, as groups like Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five, The Treacherous Three, and the Funky Four Plus One suddenly made the leap from the parks to the recording booths.
By the mid-1980s, artists like Run-D.M.C. and Whodini, along with the emergence of the Def Jam label, spelled the beginning of the end for rap's first wave. But there is some tremendous music that came out of Hip-Hop's first generation, songs that became calling cards for the genre for decades to come. We picked 25 of the songs that helped shape, define, and ultimately bookend, Hip-Hop's "True School" wave up through 1984 (and some 1985.)
#26
"SAVE YOUR LOVE FOR #1" - RENE & ANGELA FEAT. KURTIS BLOW [BONUS SONG]
Our BONUS SONG pick is a celebrated classic guest spot! Kurtis Blow stepped into the producer's booth for this banger with one of the hottest R&B acts of the 80s.
#25
"AT THE DIXIE" - COLD CRUSH BROTHERS (AND THE FANTASTIC FREAKS)
The energy of the Cold Crush's live performance was perfectly captured in this iconic closing track from the movie WILD STYLE. Everyone shines here, but Caz steals the show with a verse that's part tragedy, part comedy, and all lyricism.
#24
"APACHE" - THE SUGARHILL GANG
The classic tune got a Hip-Hop makeover, courtesy of Master Gee, Wonder Mike and Big Bank Hank. And it became permanently embedded in pop culture via an episode of THE FRESH PRINCE OF BEL-AIR.
#23
"FEEL IT (THE MEXICAN)" - FUNKY FOUR PLUS ONE
MC Sha Rock suggested the group revisit "The Mexican," a popular breakbeat for b-boys and b-girls in the 1970s. The result was one of the Funky Four Plus One's most infectious singles.

#22
"NEW YORK, NEW YORK" - GRANDMASTER FLASH & THE FURIOUS FIVE
Another hit from Melle Mel and Duke Bootee following the success of "The Message," it features more gritty storytelling about the Big Apple, this time going full on into darkness, as they rap about the big city.
#21
"RAPPIN' AND ROCKIN' THE HOUSE" - FUNKY FOUR PLUS ONE
MC Sha Rock, Jazzy Jeff, D.J. Breakout, Guy Williams, Keith Keith, K.K. and Rodney Stone. A dancefloor staple and the first single from the legendary crew from The Bronx, MC Sha Rock shines in particular on this classic and a great showcase for the house band.
#20
"HEY D.J." - WORLD FAMOUS SUPREME TEAM
Nobody hates this song. It's one of the most beloved songs of all time. One of the 1980s most joyously effervescent singles, it still sounds as fun and upbeat as it did decades ago.
#19
"SUPERRAPPIN'" - GRANDMASTER FLASH & THE FURIOUS FIVE
The first single from Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five was also one of the first rap singles ever released. The classic 12-minute version introduces the entire crew, and the groove is a perfect showcase for the Sugar Hill Records sound.
#18
"PROBLEMS (OF THE WORLD)" - FEARLESS FOUR
On this single produced by none other than Kurtis Blow, the Four break down everything from mental wellness to the drug game. Here, depression and hustling are linked, long before most rappers had made the connections.
#17
"THE NEW RAP LANGUAGE" - TREACHEROUS THREE W/SPOONIE GEE
Kool Moe Dee, L.A. Sunshine, Special K and former member/guest star Spoonie Gee were breaking ground from Day One. One of the earliest examples of triplet rhyme, and a revelation; and a leap forward for lyricism.
#16
"ON THE RADIO" - CRASH CREW
Harmonizing on rap records before it was cool, the Crash Crew had one of the most unique sounds in Hip-Hop's early days. Known for tight rhymes and routines as well as some of the best harmonizing committed to record, The Crew etched their own lane long before rap became a multi billon dollar industry.
#15
"MONEY (DOLLAR BILL, Y'ALL)" - JIMMY SPICER
Spicer had some of Hip-Hop's smoothest early tracks, with rhymes that could be effortlessly cool and hilarious. One of his best was this uber-classic; a single that would later be famously revisited by Wu-Tang Clan on "C.R.E.A.M."
#14
"FUNK BOX PARTY, PT. 1" - MASTERDON COMMITTEE
MasterDon, Pebbly Poo, Gangster G, Keith KC, Boo Ski and Johnny D crafted one of the most infectious party rap records. And its where Master P got that classic "Make 'Em Say Uhh" hook from.
#13
"JAM ON IT" - NEWCLEUS
It's impossible to hear this electro smash and not start pop locking--almost spontaneously. It's one of the best singles of the 1980s and a hit that cemented the electro sound as a force in Hip-Hop.
#12
"ROCKIN' IT" - FEARLESS FOUR
That Kraftwerk sample is one of the best ever, and this gem from the Fearless Four would become a benchmark for so many later hits like MC Lyte's "Cha Cha Cha" and Jay-Z's "Sunshine."
#11
"FUNK YOU UP" - THE SEQUENCE
Hip-Hop's first female rap group came from South Carolina, and the Sequence dropped an early rap classic with this funky slice of perfection. Revisited by everyone from Dr. Dre to Bruno Mars.
#10
"WHITE LINES (DON'T DO IT)" - GRANDMASTER FLASH & THE FURIOUS FIVE
The song is ostensibly a warning against the dangers of cocaine, but it winds up sounding almost like a coke commercial! So the group added the "Don't do it!" addendum to make sure the message remains clear.
#9
"HOW WE GONNA MAKE THE BLACK NATION RISE?" - BROTHER D WITH THE COLLECTIVE EFFORT
When they discuss the earliest forms of political Hip-Hop, this danceable anthem from 1980 has to be more recognized. One of the first topical rap songs that explicitly references Black Power, still an important record.
#8
"FEEL THE HEARTBEAT" - TREACHEROUS THREE
It's one of the greatest rap records ever made. The Treacherous Three have no shortage of classic singles, but "...Heartbeat" is one of the most celebrated, sampled and revered songs in their catalog.
#7
"RENEGADES OF FUNK" - SOULSONIC FORCE
The Soulsonic Force didn't look to repeat the innovation of "Planet Rock." Instead, the pioneering crew of electro-rock producers pushed even further into the future with this kinetic piece of art.
#6
"THAT'S THE JOINT" - FUNKY FOUR PLUS ONE
That groove is recreated by the Sugar Hill house band, as the crew of emcees out of the Bronx kick rhymes and keep the party going with one of Hip-Hop's most indelible early singles.
#5
"THE BODY ROCK" - TREACHEROUS THREE
A high water mark for the record makers at Sugar Hill. That groove is so slick and the beat is one of Hip-Hop's all-time best; sampled by everyone from Mariah Carey to Fat Joe.
#4
"RAPPER'S DELIGHT" - THE SUGAR HILL GANG
The song that got rap music on the radio and got Hip-Hop into mainstream American culture. Master Gee, Wonder Mike and the late Big Bank Hank launched themselves into the echelons of history with this Grandmaster Caz-penned hit that started it all.
#3
"PLANET ROCK" - AFRIKA BAMBAATAA & SOULSONIC FORCE
Electro was arguably rap music's first true subgenre, and the Soulsonic Force was the first act to take it to the major charts. A breakbeat staple that still sounds like the future.
#2
"THE BREAKS" - KURTIS BLOW
The Orange Krush provided the slinky groove, and Kurtis Blow's bombastic rap sits front-and-center on this classic from 1980. Kurtis Blow became Hip-Hop's first major crossover superstar after becoming the first rapper to land a major deal. He dropped this monster single, and kickstarted a career that would make him one of the genre's most beloved icons.
#1
"THE MESSAGE" - GRANDMASTER FLASH & THE FURIOUS FIVE
If Hip-Hop has a "Johnny B. Goode," then surely it must be this standout single from Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five. Written by Melle Mel and Sugar Hill producer Duke Bootee, the 1982 classic has become a rap standard, with a refrain ("It's like a jungle sometimes...") that summed up Hip-Hop's inherent truths without trying too hard. And a beat that's been revisited by everyone from Ice Cube to Puff Daddy.

OKAY LET'S GOOOOO
feel free to comment/reblog and share your favorite incredithings with me too because I also love hearing about it! :D
alright, I'm going to talk about my favorite bonuses in this post
my fave V1 bonus is Santa. it's just so catchy! it makes you want to dance. I'm really glad my beloved Bass is used in this one. he is so cool 👍
RIP that guy tho. you didn't deserve it homie
V2: Little Miss. It's so good oh boy howdy. the colors in this bonus are one of my favorite combos. black red and white works sooooo well
I gotta ask tho, what were they thinking when they put this in the game xD
V3: listen. they're all so good. I don't think I can choose. like this is why I love V3 so much. everything's so diverse. it's perfect
if I reaaaally had to choose I'd probably go with Sunrise. it's so, idk, mystical and mysterious (I am also a very casual Inca/Maya/Aztec culture enjoyer so this bonus and melody 1 and 4 are a huge treat for me!) and Incredible Polo's voice sounds particularly amazing in that one. and the video is just beautiful
I go silly when he says "over your head" in this part!! ^^^ (I just listened to this bonus again and oh. ooohh. I am getting emotional. Indien's howling in the background. the visuals. all the dudes singing "aaah". my freaking game bugged and couldn't even play the bonus properly, I'm not even joking dkfgjhdk)
V4: very tough choice. both of these are amazing but I might go with Eagle. I just love the beat in it and it looks very aesthetically pleasing to my eyes, it has an awesome color palette. and sometimes you just really want to turn into an eagle and say heck it all...
these make me feel so many emotions. it's a crime that those bonuses are short
V5: Musica. another absolute crime that the bonuses are so short. I love them, they have such happy vibes
what is homie drinking 👀
also very silly theory(?) time: I like to think this is Armo sitting on the V3 horse toy dkfgjh (I know this could be a V5 guy but shh pls let me have this..)
V6: I'm not gonna be original here, my favorite is Busta. it looks very good, it sounds very good. 12/10. Fire
So Far So Good knew what they were doing when they made this bonus (I'm so normal about Mind and his eyes)
However, Alive gets an honorable mention for being the funniest bonus in the game and having amazing visuals and music.
broski literally said "don't tell me how to live my life" and willingly let himself get hit by a meteor. King. Would this mean that, in a way, Incredibox has two canonically dead characters?
V7: Kabikabi. listen. listen. this one is probably the best bonus in the entire game. it's absolutely beautiful and it's sounds so good it's unbelievable. wow. it gives me goosebumps (most of the bonuses do but shh, Kabikabi is so special to me)
my gosh. the visuals. and I love the lyrics too! this bonus makes me ascend
V8: Zemetekile. Oh it's so damn good. I love Choir and his little journey. I love the faces he makes in this bonus. The music in this bonus is AMAZING, I love how it's soo.... I don't know, not too melodic? there's a lot of clicks and funky lil sounds in this one (I think some of the sounds are made by Foubreak and they're just soo 🤌🤌🤌). What I like about Dystopia is that the beats, effect and voices are just excellent, they create a great atmosphere. You can make an awesome tune without using the melodies which gives the whole thing this empty and hopeless vibe... what am I even saying anymore
Oh and Dystopia the short film? My gosh. What a masterpiece
And that moment in Cumulor when Choir takes off his robes? It kills me every time
This gave me a silly little headcanon idea that all Incredimen are mass produced androids dfkgjhk (I love androids/robots okay)
oh and when his hair moves while he walks?? the attention to detail!! holy crap!! take all my money So Far So Good. they went crazy in this version
V9: Yeah we only got one bonus so far but Flow is so good!! I mentioned it in my other post but I just really love the 80's/90's vibes!! a song made just for me... 💖
a reference to our beloved V3 horsie and the best V4 bonus? cool!! WTV? haha nice. everything about this bonus rocks. I really love the sound in the background, I don't even know what it is, that jingly thing? yeah it's great :) and the percussion at the end? so badass... it's also a crime that it's a shorter one. I really hope the other bonuses will have more loops. When will the second bonus be released tho... pls So Far So Good, I am so thirsty for more bonuses, PLS. Incredibox is my life source. I also hope Big Duke and ASAP Bee will appear in one (or both) of the bonuses. I need them there. They are my babies
also can I just say how much I love this douchebag?
--------
Okay, I guess that'll be all for this post! :D I wanted to squeeze in some more things but I figured it would be better to keep it for another one dfkgjh (plus tumblr is having troubles with all those pics lmao)
I hope you enjoyed this, thank you for reading :)
you know what, I kinda want to talk about my favorite Incredibox things again because kdfjgh I forgot about bonuses when I answered that ask.. and I also have some other silly things to say. I might just do that tomorrow.
