[dazesanddoodles]

oh we are so back

[th30ra3k3n]

And I

Grew up thinking I would have to

Fight all of this alone

But now you hold me in the darkness

Hold me 'til it hurts less, you

Tell me that I'm alright

Show me where the light shines through

Please, stay, love me through the weather

Please, say this will be forever

Hold me in the darkness

Even when it's hard with you

It's a little bit, little bit better

What's funny is that i made my sister read aftg at 14 bc i forgot she was only 14 (there are reasons) and here we are 6 years later debating what kind of french music Jean would listen to over a pint (or 3)

[alexluvsskittlez]

okay so update on the magical girl au thingy I'm making

so I got Hayley and Emily's description of their outfits, weapons, powers yk all that cool stuff.

and I'm about to write Amy and Avril's but the problem is, admittedly, I don't know that much about either of them despite being a fan of them for years 😭

like, I definitely know A LOT and I mean A LOT about Hayley (bc Paramore has been my special interest for the past 4 years) and I know a lot about Emily I'm hyperfixated on her.

but even though I've been a fan of both Avril and evanescence since 2021 (Avril was literally one of my top artists of 2022) i still don't know much about them.

so if anypony wants to give me some more info about them please let me know, it would help a lot with my fic! ^_^

but yeah in case anypony was wondering, I made Hayley's magical weapon a giant hair dye brush that can be turned into a sword once spun, she could also summon hair dye from her hands. hair dye is very toxic to the creatures that are attacking the world (haven't thought of names for the creatures yet)

I also made Emily's magical weapon a spear that once striked with, releases a toxic substance that looks like the from zero album cover. her screaming can also hypnotize the creatures and even knock them out sometimes.

anyway, this fic will be posted on my... secret ao3 account 😈 once I'm done with it.

I've always found Alexander Saburov interesting, especially P1 Rubin's take on him where he tells how Alexander in incognito saved people from burning house and went unrecognized for the deed (nor flaunted it). Wonderful and easy to miss characterization.

YES saburov's fucked up sense of performing duty by putting himself at risk... my favorite... have had thoughts brewing in response to this that aren't quite cooked enough yet but it's very much a gendered standard that he holds himself to IMO, of idealized masculinity as a responsibility. as an active role and as the way things must be done. making the choices that he thinks need to be made regardless of how bad they are for him. pairing beautifully with katerina's self-destructive attempts to conform to the extremely feminine-gendered role of mistress, pairing wonderfully with the two of them's catastrophic attempt to conform to the heteropatriarchal nuclear family archetype by adopting the changeling :^) and especially how this is a function of how saburov relates to his Job, a role that's been passed down in his family and Actually Is critical to the function of the Town, inescapably so as long as the system of rulers exists

@ crane wives and marauders fans:

The parallel between Tongues and Teeth

and Never Love An Anchor

feels so significant when applied to the Black brothers' situation. Both Sirius and Regulus came out of their ancestral home with the feeling that everything they touched would rot just because of the exposure to their darkness, approaching relationships the same way. That's the same mindset that the singers of both Tongues And Teeth and Never Love An Anchor possess.

The singer of Tongues And Teeth goes into detail about what they think will happen with their potential lover with them from the start, warning them of the danger of just Existing near them. The song is from the present tense of the situation, as they're in the middle of making the decision to give in to indulgence. They jump into things, impulsively and headfirst. They can't hold back, even though they know the consequences. If it's okay with their new lover, it's okay with them.

Meanwhile, in Never Love An Anchor, the singer talks about the situation from far in the future, if they had instead decided to stay away. If the singer had never given in to the temptation, and had let their "rotting" mindset keep them on that track. It talks about the grief you feel over the knowledge that loving you only brings awful things, and that staying away is the kindest thing to do even though it hurts so much. The situation is long over, and the singer is left wondering if they're hated, or even remembered.

Tongues and Teeth is written about the same kind of experience that Sirius has in every goddamn Wolfstar fic, and there are so many unrequited and avoiding love Regulus Black fics that Never Love An Anchor feels like an obvious fit, especially with Jegulus. Tongues and Teeth represents Sirius in that he lives his Life like this song. He can't hold back how much he wants and feels, so he talks back to his parents, gets sorted into the house his parents absolutely Hated, he constantly verbalizes his hatred for his family and all of the darkness they represent, I could go on and on. At the same time, he feels that he is stained by that same darkness and that he can't ever escape its presence in the lives of those he loves. He just doesn't want to have to hold everything back, so, just like the song, "if you're fine with that, can be mine like that," he'd want to have it like That. Him and Remus are so often characterized in fanon as being so magnetic to each other, causing them to clash just as often as they come together. They think they'll ruin each other because of the darkness they possess, but Sirius especially tends to put Remus on a pedestal of goodness, like the singer does to their potential lover.

Regulus Black's name is somewhat synonymous with tragedy in fanon. Whether it's the "no beta we die like regulus black in the cave" tags for shock value, the black brothers angst in everything from major fics to tiny headcanons, or the unrequited love for either James or Barty that permeates most Regulus Black media, he's a character that doesn't ever really get a break. Never Love An Anchor and the grief it represents feels relevant to him when the subject is Sirius or James, but I'll stick to James (keeping it romantic with the Wolfstar/Tongues and Teeth comparison). I'm a Choices coward (couldn't make myself finish it, I got too sad), but the "person on the dark side can't leave it but can't stop loving someone they have to protect from it" trope is still pretty common amongst Jegulus fics. Whether or not the love is requited, it doesn't change the mentality that Regulus always uses to approach it. "I am selfish, I am broken, I am cruel." His darkness is the reason he never lets himself get close. In the cases where he does get close, he cuts it off to avoid inevitably hurting the one he loves, the epitome of Light and happiness that he thinks he doesn't deserve, James Potter. Honestly, thinking about the two of them while listening to the last bit in the lyrics (scroll back up to read) is a painful experience but it just fits so well.

I think both songs apply to their respective Black brothers very well individually, but it's also such a good comparison to see how their upbringing affected them. Sirius was always the impulsive, headstrong one so Regulus wouldn't have to be, and this is a direct result. They have the same beliefs about themselves but it manifests so differently because of how their environment shaped them.

I've been having brainrot about these two songs and how they relate to the Black Brothers for over a month at this point, so I hope somebody else appreciates how much I've thought about this thank you <333

i wish i could put my spotify playlists into folders so i could just have a asoiaf folder so it's all in one place instead of hutning for them. considering how playlist driven spotify is you'd think they'd let you organize them like that but nooo smh. i am gonna make "covers" for them and post them all soon though i got

aligon - a kiss to every scar

ned - she laughs like you

rhaegon - the stars were meant for us

jacenyra - no title yet
