wait what’s the love lockdown show

Good morning anon, thanks for asking! Before I get to your question, I feel a little backstory on the Love Lockdown cover is important here, so let's start at the beginning shall we? 🤓

First off Patrick dropped a cover of Love Lockdown by Kayne West Sept 21, 2008 during the promo for Folie. Where he had this to say about it:

And this:

@dykepatrickstump has a great post about Patrick cover songs that discusses the timing of Patrick posting the Love Lockdown cover and subsequent posts made by Pete to both his main blog and private blogs the same day and a few days after. It's very....interesting and IMO pretty critical to the whole narrative.

Hopefully you're still with me anon. Back to your original question.

To promo the release of Folie, they did a run of small venue secret shows and tv engagements which included a show for Much Music Canada (woo Canada mention), Live in the Lot on Oct 28, 2008. During that set Patrick played the Love Lockdown cover and after he finishes playing it says "that's for you Pete" 👀. It should also be noted that it seems Love Lockdown was played during a commercial break and not during the televised set.

As an aside, the Live in the Lot show was the second show they played the Love Lockdown cover. It was live debuted at Wembley on Oct 22, 2008. Those are the only two shows it was played at (to my knowledge at least).

Oh my gosh this has gotten away from me. Back to the timeline. The best man speech video post from yesterday is from the Harper's Ferry secret show in Boston on Nov 6, 2008, which according to setlist FM, was the show immediately after the Love Lockdown show on Oct 28, 2008.

Thanks for staying with me anon. There was certainly.....something....about these early folie era shows because there's a lot of interesting moments that came out of them 🩵💙

I want the infodump on Jamil and Yuusha ma'am I beg

THIS HAS BEEN UNANSWERED FOR A MONTH IM SORRY AUGH

but thank you so much yes im okay im normal about them i’ll do my best (for context i mentioned in the tags of one of my posts a while back wanting to infodump about them, but i forget which one it was jfkdlsjhl anyways-)

this won't be a full info dump because i think that would somewhat restrict my dynamic of them if i put it all into words (if that makes sense) ;;;

and i realized i lowkey dont have a coherent timeline for them (yet); i just put them in random scenarios of what i think would be fun at the moment

to make up for it i'll also put a silly self-indulgent sketch dump all below ;;;

I JUST REALIZED I DRAW THEM MAKING EYE CONTACT A LOT (bc something something there's a level of trust that jamil wont use his snake whisper on yuu anymore)

okay now for some random jamiyuu dynamics/hcs/lore

yuu fell first -> yuu lost feelings (bc why would you trust someone who took advantage you) -> ✨ then something happened ✨ -> jamil fell next but harder.

highkey disliked each other -and showed it- in the beginning bc of the whole scarabia drama; then an -accidental- act of service got them to think differently about one another. like "holy shit maybe they're not so bad after all???"

extremely slow burn.

very competitive with one another which then bled into their "flirting" / affectionate acts when they eventually became closer.

basically: “sweetheart” but rivalry -> “babe” but platonically -> “bro” but romantically pipeline.

(“are you flirting or starting a fight”)

yuu kinda throws around “love you” a lot, especially to her close friends; so -during their “platonic” stage- for some reason, jamil was the only “friend” she has not said this to. but it’s okay it’s not like jamil had referred to her as the “f-word” (friend) anyway.

had a mutual agreement that their romantic relationship is temporary because of yuu wanting to go home; they’re just going to “try it out” “no hard feelings”.

yuu made jamil promise to never use snake whisper on her ever again.

jamil: personal beef w/ bugs + afraid of them; yuu: personal beef w/ bugs (w/ a few exceptions) + not afraid of them, just generally pissed at their existence.

dancing and music lowkey became one of their love languages.

kalim genuinely became one yuu’s best friends because of how much they hit it off. jamil always third wheels them no matter the circumstance.

yuu loves grim more than jamil; jamil knows this very well. and so does grim.

Mera I loved that fic with captive Floyd but when I tell you that I had no idea of what a shark suit was and literally thought we were going in an actual Shark costume like suit😭��� I was so confused LMFAOOO It sets the vibe totally different and silly when i imagined it with the read but it was still good!!!

LOL that's such a funny visual. The idea of Reader showing up to work in a shark costume is too good. I think that would be just as exciting to Floyd as Reader falling victim to their heat hehe. But this was the shark suit I had in mind when writing it:

It is a chainmail suit that is meant to protect divers from sharks! The steel mesh material prevents sharks from biting through, but that doesn't stop the force of its bite. But Reader doesn't need to wear such protective gear now that Floyd has found himself a friend. <3 he's going to protect you with his life because he may be mistaking you for a mate now, but it's okay. He's a softie!!! A very sweet, gentle eel. uwu he will be the best mate to his researcher shrimpy. You just don't know it yet.

[that-foul-legacy-lover]

Happy April Fools’ !! :)

Thinking about reader playing a prank on FL, acting as if they can’t see FL for the day. In the morning, FL is confused to see that reader has only prepared one portion of breakfast, chittering confusedly at reader as if asking about his breakfast but reader doesn’t react to his chittering, happily eating their breakfast. Later, FL approaches reader, wanting to have an afternoon nap together with them but once again, reader doesn’t acknowledge him no matter what he does. This results in a very pouty and whiny FL. Seeing his upset demeanour, reader thinks that they’ve taken the prank a bit too far and decides to make it up to him, making a huge dinner and apologising to him with lots of kisses and cuddles.

-sleepy anon

NOOOOOOO poor Legacy,,,, i would give him so many kisses to make up for it,,,

he is SO pouty after you end your little practical joke, letting out tiny growls and whines and stubbornly turning away when you try to hug him- what a cruel day!! yes, you were out for errands for a lot of it, but Legacy hates being ignored, especially by you. he wants to be able to snuggle and hug and get scritches and just be around you all the time, so touch-starved is he, and to have you intentionally ignore him had sent him into a panic. but he can only pout and grumble for so long before his walls come crumbling down and he whimpers, turning to nudge his face into your hands for the scratches he's been so deprived of today, raising his chin and letting out a deep, satisfied purr when you scritch his neck. for a few moments, Foul Legacy just melts under your touch, rumbling and turning into a soft moth puddle before he nuzzles against you and playfully nibbles your fingers

tonight, he decides, he will cuddle with you as much as he wants, as payment for that little joke of yours. the moment you're done cleaning up, Legacy pulls you over to his room of blankets and promptly tugs you onto his lap, claws kneading carefully in your hair. you're cordially obligated to give him as many pets and kisses as possible, pecking his cheeks and jaw while Legacy rumbles contently and bumps his forehead against your shoulder, tilting his head this way and that in delight when you begin scritching behind his horns. he lightly bites your hand and looks you directly in the eyes- never again, alright? he doesn't like this type of joke, one that makes him feel lonely and abandoned, like before he met you. so never, ever again. and you simply nod and kiss his forehead, feeling Foul Legacy relax in relief and rest his head against your chest with a sleepy chirp, tired for the day

[misc-obeyme]

Omg the ask-inbox chat-room. ✨ funny you mention the memory card cause I just finished reading through it. It’s called "Panic! At the Trap" and I love it. It’s the one where all the RAD students have to nab a card (or something) off of another student that they’re assigned. The Thirteen - Mammon interactions are pure chaos and I desperately wanted to see more. Can you imagine the pairings? The showdowns? Who’s the poor smuck that got assigned Barbatos? I wanna know.

You’re so sweet keeping me on my Pandora train. The short of the Scheherezade-ing story is that she’s sent to collect a thousand souls by command of the CR in the year’s longest night (who, in my head canon, can be pretty brutal) but is stopped by a nameless beggar who offers themselves as her first reaped soul so long as the people of the city live to see the dawn one last time. Naive and arrogant, Pandora agrees. To pass the dark hours, the nameless beggar tells the people of the city a story, but stops midway as dawn appears on the horizon. The next night, the nameless beggar finish their first story, but starts the next one, as the night was still young. Rinse and repeat for 1001 nights.

I like to think this is where Pandora learns about the richness of human life & experience. She isn’t able to control her curiosity and by the end of it, falls for the nameless beggar, so much so that she could never reap them and thus, saving the rest of the city. It’s a nice headcanon for me but like, impossible to write lol.

Honestly, I think it depended on the MC if they’d get along. Pandora can still come off as insufferably above-it-all but is also a huge gossip fiend and actively encourages shenanigans (never maliciously, she just wants to know what happens next). She’s got a lot of hang-ups about who she’s meant to be/what she’s meant to do. I’m curious, do you think she’d get along with any of your OCs?

-🪿honk

I really gotta read more memory card Devilgrams... I tend to neglect them lol! I did read one with Thirteen and Barbatos because hello I couldn't resist it. It was the one called Cinderella's Dream... but anyway, I gotta check out the memory cards you guys are talking about just for the Thirteen content!

Oh my GOSH. I love this story about Pandora! Suuuuper curious about that nameless beggar now, too. Does she ever find out their name? Or is it like... she keeps the fact that she's fallen for them to herself? Either way, I love it.

Impossible to write because of the 1001 stories and such?? 'Cause I kinda think you could summarize most of that and write the important scenes that show Pandora falling for the beggar. Like maybe she's listening to a specific story and something about the way the beggar's voice changes gives her insight into the beggar's own emotions... or if the beggar needs a drink and she brings it to them...

Uh but anyway, there I go getting ideas lol. I like the headcanon a lot! What an interesting situation for her to live through, too. Does it make her more wary of falling in love after that?

And oh yes, I do think she'd get along with some of my OCs!

I think Ciaran would get along with her! You mentioned before that she's curious and has a tendency for disobedience, which is something Ciaran would have in common with her. They might have an issue with the above-it-all attitude... however, I see them kinda just making fun of her for it lol. Ciaran is very friendly in general and I think their curiosity about her would make them want to befriend her.

I think Azrael would like her a lot just because she sounds like she'd cause all kinds of trouble for Stella and he would find that hilarious. Stella would be like what are you doing not reaping humans when you're supposed to be don't you realize how much extra paperwork that creates??

I also think Arsenios would get along with her. He's somewhat serious, but he also tends to do his own thing in defiance of any rules and regulations. He'd be impressed with her for doing what she felt was right instead of what she'd been told. Plus he's a super romantic and he'd be all starry eyed about the idea of a reaper sparing the life of a human they fell in love with. He'd never admit to that, though!

[todayisafridaynight]

would it be okay if u told me why u like aoki😭/gen😭😭😭😭BEEN TRYNA LIKE HIM FOR SO LONG I JUST CANTT but i love ur art so much so i still consume it otherwise lol

i liked tohru adachi in high school and tbh i think that alone is enough of an explanation for why i ended up liking aoki

[mirabellemoira]

Damn im disappointed Jace almost cheated and only stopped because of what infidelity did to his family, not cause he loves Baela

He kinda emotionally abuses her and ignores her. It just seems like he hates her in this fic. He saw her after 9 months in chains and he just walked past her like huh????

Now pause right there. Like I said earlier, I’m not the author of this. I’m just a fellow reader giving you my view based off what I remember in those earlier chapters. Jace’s personality and traits of his character are formed from the experiences and events he’s lived through. He can both be adverse to infidelity because of his family AND be adverse to infidelity because of his love for baela at the same time.

Id recommend reading the fic (and the tags beneath this post) fully before continuing this train of thought on emotional abuse, thanks ✌🏻

[becausebuckley]

Since you say you welcome asks, what do you think of the season thus far? Is it living up to your expectations? Are you enjoying watching live? (you mentioned this was your first season following along, right?)

yes, asks are always welcome!! i love chatting about 911/season 8/fics/my writing/literally anything else with you all <3

this is indeed my first time watching live! i'm really enjoying it. i can't watch as the episode airs since it's in the middle of the night for me, and i work all day friday, but it's nice to have the episode to look forward to after work. i usually prepare a snack to eat while watching - i tried out this soy-based chocolate fudge ice cream with 8x03, which was nice - and it's just a lovely start to my weekend. i'm also really enjoying being on tumblr and discord and everywhere to hear everyone's thoughts, read your fics, and look at the gorgeous gif sets everyone is creating. it's been a lovely experience for me!!

as for my thoughts on the season, i'm really really enjoying it. the bees were funny, the plane disaster was captivating, and though i'm not the biggest fan of any plots involving athena's police work, i do love watching angela bassett on my screen, so that's all good. i'm also really enjoying seeing the team interact with each other. i feel like we're getting some more little team moments (e.g. everyone on the roof in 8x01, the dance party, hen and chim and eddie on the engine in 8x03) than before and it's been so nice to see. i would appreciate it if gerrard could leave soon and i don't love that the mara plot is this drawn-out, but i'll see where it goes! long story short, definitely living up to my expectations, and i'm having a lovely time. i hope you are as well, anon!

[foolishlovers]

any ineffable fic recs for the weekend? 👀

yes, always!! here are some of my recent favourites, i've sorted them by word count. hope this helps 💜

When We Meet Again (T, 4k) by AppleSeeds

Aziraphale met Crowley a year ago at Anathema and Newton's wedding, and has regretted not having the courage to ask him out ever since. When he sees Crowley again at his friends' one year anniversary party, Aziraphale is determined to be braver this time - that is, once he manages to get rid of his annoying headache. But when Aziraphale sneaks off to a quiet room to lie down for a bit, he ends up not being alone for long.

(super cute human au with some soft flirting and banter)

Wilde Flowers (M, 8k, WIP) by RockSaltAndRoll

Aziraphale has been single since the 90s. Although happy with his rare book business, he does long for a bit more than just the companionship of his assistant. Crowley has just opened a florist in Aziraphale’s quiet corner of Soho. His tight black clothes, flame red hair and taste in music are absolutely not Aziraphale’s thing. Except Crowley keeps giving him flowers and Aziraphale discovers the florist loves Oscar Wilde. When the Whickber Street Shopkeepers and Traders notice a spark between the frumpy rare book shop owner and the new red-haired florist, they take it upon themselves to engineer a romance for their beloved but eternally single Mr Fell.

(seriously my favourite WIP right now, the writing is so lovely and the premise absolutely delightful)

got a pretty face, pretty boyfriend too (T, 9k) by KissMyAsthma, leukozyna

Aziraphale and Crowley are next-door neighbours. They’ve been attracted to each other since they met. The only thing keeping them apart is a thin wall between their bedrooms and Atticus and Freddie, Aziraphale’s and Crowley’s respective life partners… or are they? A human AU glued together by misunderstandings and wet food.

(what can i say, i'm a sucker for crack treated seriously, this is full of misunderstandings and mutual pining)

Side Mission (T, 11k) by KannaOphelia

Some time after Warlock's ninth birthday, Aziraphale and Crowley have realised they made a mistake, and tracked the real Antichrist down to Tadfield. Two years to save the world is more than enough, right? Except everyone keeps assuming they are a married couple, and it's almost too much for a hopelessly in love demon to bear. Especially when Aziraphale suggests they might as well go along with it.

(if you love the fake dating trope with a good amount of precious pining, you need to read this)

The Loophole, or, How to Convince a Demon God Exists in Three Easy Steps (E, 24k) by fellshish

Ah, yes. Being an Archangel is going splendidly. Aziraphale accidentally erases God from the Book of Life.

(most hilarious post s2 fic i've read with beautiful writing and my beloved anathema coming back)

Fifty-Two Blue (M, 84k) by bendycello

It would be a gross understatement to say that Crowley simply didn't like Aziraphale. He was posh and stuffy and arrogant, and Crowley couldn't figure out why everyone else in the program liked him so much. It hardly mattered; they were competitors, and Crowley didn't need to make friends to become a surgeon. It takes several unleasant encounters, the excessive use of house plants as a coping mechanism, and getting stuck in an elevator for Crowley to start reconsidering his priorities. Or… Crowley and Aziraphale are surgical interns with competitive streaks a mile wide each, and they really do not like each other at all. Until they do.

(slow burn enemies to friends to lovers, absolutely delicious)

[theragamuffininitiative]

you can pull up your chair here

hello there. that's cozy isn't it. take a load off, it's ok. some tea? the kettle's over the fire there, just hot enough. push that little stack of books over and place your mug down. just so. there are some snacks around here somewhere...

how are you? what's on your mind?

[asks hours, conversation welcome in my inbox and dms]

[taegularities]

i miss the old tumblr so much

[madame-fear]

You should post more stuff on Instagram. Who knows, maybe she will show it to Elliot, and he'll be like, "Oh cool," and "comment" and/or like it. Harry Collett seems to like art and edits with Jacaerys in them, so maybe.

Omg yes, you’re actually right, I know, I saw some people flexing that Harry gave a like to their Jacaerys art on IG!! Somehow this message felt motivational for me to post more things on Instagram, especially now knowing Elliot’s mum noticed me. 😂💗

YOU ARE SO RIGHT NONNIE. I WILL BE MAKING EDITS AND COLLAGES OF LUCERYS AND HOPE HIS MUM OR HIMSELF SEES IT!! I want to practise drawing too, because I want to draw a Lord!One Eyed!Lucerys — I think that would be very cool.

Please guys pray for me, I will be manifesting for him to see any of my content on IG and notices me. IF THAT HAPPENS MY 2024 IS SOLVED AND I WOULD SCREAM AND CRY AND GUSH 💗💗💗✊

[ilostyou]

hiiiii i'm gonna ask u some opinions/ questions just bc

rep tour or eras tour (could be conceptually or personally)

name a 5sos song that makes you feel 1. inhuman 2. divine 3. feral so basically 3 songs lmao

what was ur first song you listened to of taylor's

when did u get into 5sos (era/year)

if i hugged u would u hug me back (purely in a non creepy way ok i just love seeing ur posts on here they make me feel normal bc someone else is feeling the same way as me)

hiiii bestie <333

eras!!! def eras conceptually, but also personally (even though my rep tour ~experience~ is sooo special to me for personal reasons too lmfao)

this is gonna be so much more than only three songs my apologies in advance BUT. inhuman - easier lftv, lover of mine, specifically the bridge of lonely heart (i feel like it's the 5sos version of the willow cult moment yknow), bad omens. divine - take my hand (if we're getting specific we can add the royal albert hall version), best years, easy for you to say LIVE, osco royal albert hall version. feral - if walls could talk, blender, not in the same way, girls talk boys, and more (for the easier transition but also the riff is soooooo sexy)

i wanna say love story honestly i think i heard it on the radio at the time yknow

i got properly into 5sos last year! i'd been a very surface level fan til then (i.e. big singles and maybe one or two songs) but i stumbled upon take my hand a bit after it was released as a single and to make a much longer story short the rest is history lol

absolutely yes!!! hugging you back soosooso hard rn <3333

[merakiui]

-🐁 anon

*skidaddles away*

Hi hiii, 🐁 anon!!!!! I actually play hsr!! :D I want to catch up in the main story a little more before I develop any thoughts, but there are so many wonderful characters to brain rot about!! >w< I'm certain my brain will cook some yummy ramblings about them, but if anyone ever wants to discuss my life, my light, my love Gepard Landau I am always ready. <3

[that-foul-legacy-lover]

im just thinking about rainy days in Liyue, foul legacy has his head buried in your neck while you're cooking dinner and purr because you feel warm and safe when the sky is dark and the rain is loud </3 with time he will learn to love these rainy days because it mean cozy time in his blankets nest with you and he falls in love even harder when you're sleepily hugging him while falling asleep to the sound of rain against the window and him loudly purring. Sometimes he see you smile in your sleep, if he knew it was due to him being in your dream mothman would probably cry happy tears!

i cant remember if you already wrote something like that but i got this nightly thought and it helped me fall asleep so i wanted to share with u <3 i hope you're doing well!

as someone who lives in a place that's almost ALWAYS rainy i approve of this SO much

if you had work that day, you come home with a wet coat and shoes, shaking droplets of water from your hair as Foul Legacy bounds downstairs to greet you. no matter how difficult or annoying the endless documents and questions were, a wide smile would always grow on your face when Legacy scooped you into a hug, chirping and trilling with delight. he's been waiting for you all day!! waiting for the moment he could curl around you and rest his head in your lap, protected from the thunderous rain outside

it's strange- when you're with him, everything seems a bit brighter. where before he saw only windows being beaten by the storm outside, now he sees every droplet of water glimmering like a crystal, slowly sliding down the glass as you sigh happily and nestle closer. even when you're asleep you desire to be as close as possible, gently curling your hands into Foul Legacy's lilac fluff. it's so warm and cozy next to him, and even in slumber you have a small, familiar smile on your face as he bumps his forehead against yours, purring soothingly so you sleep even better. perhaps he'll even meet you in your dreams tonight- although this moment seems to be a very lovely dream already <33
