[sweetdreamstilsunbeamsfindyou]

some say the world will end in fire,

some say in ice.

from what i’ve tasted of desire

i hold with those who favor fire.

but if it had to parish twice,

i think i know enough of hate

to say that for destruction ice

is also great

and would suffice.

haikyuu boys in your typical romance cliche 

warnings: mention of alcohol and language

note: female reader insert

oikawa tooru — as the typical popular frat boy that you happen to stumble into because you were so damn wasted of alcohol or vodka. you happen to be invited in the biggest frat party ever and you didn’t know whether you should be thankful or ashamed that you gained freedom and liveliness for a short period of time or squashing your face on the chest of the gorgeous oikawa tooru? perhaps the latter. oikawa know you because you were one of those university girl that never gave a damn about him and in instant he grew fond and interested with you. he actually finds it cute to see you all puffy and red because of alcohol but other than that he isn’t gonna let you go this time, never, especially in this state of yours. he’s that typical cliche where he’ll pull your hair up while you throw out in the bathroom while caressing your back gently and wiping off your temples with his handkerchief. 

akaashi keiji — is the classmate that is really intimidating yet hot at the same time? you think you were quite lucky that you were assigned to seat beside him but the moment you gathered your things to move beside him, you can almost feel the weight of the piercing gaze of your classmates. anyways, you got assigned in a school project with him and he offers you his place since the school is bound to close at six and your place is not that appealing much either. so you both walked to his house and you can see the little things he does for you like pressing his body closer to your side when a creepy guy walks across or the ghost of his touch from your back when you both crossed the pedestrian or the way his hands slightly raises your bag cause he knows it’s heavy judging by your slouching. and when the young night passes away, he starts talking about his life and you too, until one moment he confesses that he really admires you, so much.

yamaguchi tadashi — you know yamaguchi and you’re good friends with him since you both live in the quiet neighborhood of sendai. you really love his freckles and usually compare them to constellations that makes him go flustered with his flyaway hair sticking up. he likes you but he’s just so meek and decides to never voice out his feelings. so yamaguchi is part of the photography club and is assigned to take a picture of a subject that is dear to them. and when he walked in the corridors all he could think off was just you. and so he did. you asked him while laughing, as to why he keeps on taking your pictures when you’re not a celebrity yourself, jokingly. but his answer left you off guard especially when he said, “my adviser told me to capture something so beautiful and i think it’s you.”

kageyama tobio  — he’s that boy that no matter how much he wanted to go home and rest, he’ll always wait for you patiently at your lockers despite you asking him to head first because you still have committee work after school. then one moment after the adviser has finished the meeting, you’re shocked to see him leaning against your locker while drinking in from his milk. the moonlight is already shining through the window panels; making his skin glimmer marvelously. you’ll just stare at him dubiously; not knowing what to say. and you feel yourself falling down crazily for him; heart’s erratic. because he waited for two hours at the lockers just to walk you home, even though you told him not to. and you know he’s impatient as fuck but there he is, waiting and snatching you bag away from you. he’ll give you a stare and flickers your forehead while saying, ‘idiot, you think I’ll let you walk home, alone?’ and you’ll just pull his blazer down to capture his lips and he’ll blush so hard lmaoo

kuroo tetsurou  — that transferee student everyone is talking about. with his dark hair, tall frame, and noted muscles— every girl is crazy about him. he is assigned to seat behind you; at the back by the window. and everything just spiralled down to complete euphoria, even you didn’t see it coming. he doesn’t talk much to your classmates. often dismissing a budding interaction from some girls. and it took you by surprise when he asked you for a pen because he left his pencil case in his friend (you heard him tell you his friend’s name, kenma it is?) and it just happen so quickly. everyday he’ll leave you sticky notes in your table with his messy handwriting saying how beautiful you are than the sun, or go out with me? with a little smile on the side. sometimes, you can feel him playing with your hair or reaching out to hold your hand underneath the table while the teacher is writing on the blackboard. 

hinata shoyo  — hinata will be that cliche where he will buy a cupcake because he could remember that it is one of your favorites. often running to your place because he missed the bus and will arrive at your place; his hair all messy and fluffy, panting, with his skin slightly flushed and glimmering with perspiration. or will let you cry on his shirt and won’t mind you soiling it despite the shirt being all new and crispy. he couldn’t bring himself to care to be honest, because his only concern is to make you feel better despite having his shirt all wrinkled and damp from your tears. 

bokuto kotaru  — is that typical boyfriend that would literally walk you down to your room despite his room being two buildings away from yours. he’s that dedicated. that every vacant period, he’ll fetch you off and lead you down to his department’s botanical garden. or will eat lunch with you in your room. or spending together in the library. he’s as fresh as lilies. young as the night. no matter how hard you cajole that you can walk yourself and he shouldn’t bother, he wouldn’t allow you. and will always carry your bag for you even though you can manage to carry it for yourself. he is also that kind of cliche where he’ll ask his professor is he needs something from your building and volunteers to get it for them just to visit you in you room. excusing you from your class and won’t say anything but just steal a peck from you a make a dash towards the faculty room with a proud smirk painting his face cause he rendered you speechless and flustered, again.

tsukishima kei  — is that typical cold guy in campus that everyone is lowkey scared of. you were asked by your biology teacher to borrow the books for the class’s current lesson from the library on the spot you took a beeline for the shelves as fast as you could. but for fuck’s sake all the books were placed at the topmost part of the science shelves. you stood there for a good minute while glaring at the books overhead. you know you were damned for good since there are no chairs nearby that are available and the librarian is nowhere to be seen. you stomped you feet in annoyance until you felt a looming presence behind you. a tall one. and the person smells of fresh vanillas as well. when you turned around, you saw tsukishima grabbing the books at ease and handing it to you and stalked away. you thanked him quietly but it was enough for kei to hear and he wasn’t wrong when he thinks you we’re cute while struggling to get those books on top of you. 

iwaizumi hajime  — that boy you hated to the core. you didn’t know why but he just goes right after your nerve. pressing of your buttons. iwaizumi is the bugbear of your life. yet for him, you’re the fucking cutest person he ever met in his life. and he doesn’t know why you’re so annoyed with his whole existence. but one time, he decided to play it off and decided to push your buttons more. there’s a debate in your class and he stood up to contradict your claims. and basically everyone could feel the sexual tension arising in the air, yet they didn’t utter a word. iwaizumi thinks you’re so hot when your mad and whenever you put an emphasis to him name. or the cliche where he yanked your arm when you’re about to leave the room just to playfully lean in your face, while whispering, ‘you’re so difficult, yet you’re making me want you more’ e2l, pls.

kozume kenma  — kenma is that typical boy that doesn’t allow people to play his console or his psp because it is something dear and precious to him. not even kuroo. no matter how his teammates beg to ask him for just one game, he’ll never allow except for you ;) to the point you don’t have to ask him, sometimes he’ll be the one to offer and let you play the recent game he just purchased lol

— part two will be posted soon! hope you guys like this,, i just started this yesterday with my love, @fratboyjae while we were casually throwing out cute blurbs to each other LOL HAHA. requests are currently open, send them in! love lots!

[dreaming-of-assclass]

If you had to give the 3-E characters (plus maybe Asano) I Want Songs, what would they be about?

WAIT I LOVE THIS OMG

Note: an I Want song is like a character’s theme song, one that details their journey or plight or something they’re trying to overcome. Think Disney songs.

Karma: a rock theme for sure, super chaotic and all over the place. Sings about how he’s been let down and now doesn’t care for rules or authority since it’s all corrupt. Def could mention his parents too. And how he beats up bullies.

Isogai: lowkey thinking something a bit like “Almost There” from Princess and the Frog. An upbeat yet melancholic kind of vibe, showing his strength but his obvious fears for his family situation.

Okajima: this ones fun. A very jovial, nonsensical kind of beat. Lots of sarcastic interjections from other characters. Would likely be about him joking about porn being cool, but photography is his dream. And how he tries to really amend any class tension with humor.

Okano: MY BABY. Ok I’m thinking a Barbie song vibe. Pop-ish but emphasis on lyrics. Would be about her struggle to connect with her femininity, and how she has misplaced anger. The meaning of the song would contradict against the “girly” sound.

Okuda: something similar to “Waiting on a Miracle” from the Encanto soundtrack. A song about her social anxiety, fears, and how she’s just really misunderstood. Also definitely should highlight her love for science.

Kataoka: a song you would hear in one of those inspiring athlete movies haha. I imagine it playing in a montage of her swimming, doing work, student council stuff, training, etc. It would emphasize all her responsibilities and her strength. Think: Bea Miller type of vibe

Kayano: I genuinely don’t know lmao. Maybe a happy go lucky simple song about how much she loves sweets. Then after her reveal, she gets a much darker song 👀 maybe one about her relationship with Aguri and her grief.

Kanzaki: Mitski. That’s the exact vibe I get for her, nothing less or more. It’s the sad-girl vibe, but it’s just really poetic. I can also kind of see “Reflection” from Mulan sort of.

Kimura: LMAO WHY WAS MY FIRST THOUGHT THE ROCK SONG 😭 “it’s about drive, it’s about power- 👹” ok just kidding haha, for him I’m thinking either a really funny song or really emotional. No in between.

Kurahashi: a typical Disney Princess song, no exceptions. Very sweet-sounding, happy, etc. I can just imagine the animals and bugs singing with her lmaoooo. Specifically: Snow White vibes or maybe even Tangled

Nagisa: honestly I feel like he’d have a typical protagonist kind of song. About how he doesn’t believe in himself, but he wants to do his best for the class and the mission?

Sugaya: not sure about the sound of his song, but I can imagine the visuals to be exquisite while it plays. Like him singing about how he chooses art over academics, and it’s like the screen explodes in streaks of paint, bursts of color, etc.

Sugino: an athlete anthem, but more friendly sounding? If that makes sense? Like it’s inspiring and makes you feel good, happier.

Takebayashi: a really awesome anime-intro type of sound, and it’s almost kind of funny because it contrasts his image so much. Like rock is playing while he’s just in his uniform writing equations lmao.

Chiba: I’m gonna consult the Chiba expert on this one 💗 @fumiko-matsubara pls help me out haha. But I kind of get a rock/guitar sound? Maybe it’s about how his appearance gets judged a lot :(

Terasaka: a song about how much he loves his friends and the class :’) and how he has a lot of regrets about what he’s done and how he’s lived his life.

Nakamura: somehow I got the image of Meg from Hercules. I think her song would be kind of sardonic in a funny, relatable way. It has a really jazzy sound, and she almost sounds full of herself but if you pay close attention to the lyrics, you know she’s ashamed of herself.

Hazama: a spooky-sounding gothic type of vibe in the song. It has an eerie beginning, but is really catchy. And it would be about how she’s judged by others a lot, but still wants to just be herself.

Hayami: god I really can’t tell… it might be a song about how she’s hard on herself, but gets taken advantage of :( Like it’s hard for her to let her guard down maybe. I feel like it would be kind of soft-sounding.

Hara: a fun wacky chaotic song about her trying to do a million things at the same time because people are relying on her. Like she’s balancing a plate on her head while ironing something with a sewing needle between her teeth. Kind of more of a typical Disney sound.

Fuwa: a really wild, crazy anime song vibe where she sings about loving manga. She also breaks the fourth wall and talks about how she wishes she was the main character instead of Nagisa.

Maehara: it’s half-charming and nice to hear, half sleezy and makes you wanna roll your eyes. I’m thinking: “A Winter’s Ball” from Hamilton specifically the line “We’re reliable with the LADIES.”

Mimura: omg I feel like he’d have a cinematic but goofy sounding song? Like it’s almost ridiculous-sounding, and you don’t expect that from him since he’s very unassuming. Def would have interjections from Sugaya and Okajima.

Muramatsu: damn I’m really not sure for him… somehow I got a vision of Aladdin. So maybe a song like One Jump Ahead, showing his chaotic morning getting the ramen shop ready. But he loves it and still has pride in who he is.

Yada: lowkey I get a Moana vibe for her song, like something about how she’s persisting to be a strong career woman someday. And how men like to underestimate her, but jokes on them. Think “How Far I’ll Go.”

Yoshida: a fun retro vibe in his song, and some rock instrumentals. It has a lot of motorcycle and “bad boy” imagery, but the lyrics empathize how he’s a softie haha.

Ritsu: it sounds like a Vocaloid song. A Hatsune Miku song…since they have the same VA lmao. It’s about her trying to be more human, and how much she loves the world and her class.

Itona: oh lord. Definitely a song where he’s hard on himself and has conflicting feelings about his life. It would def talk about his past and what he went through with his parents. The song itself sounds very tense and heartbreaking.

Gakushuu: a song about his pressure and excellence in every area of his life, but it’s still not enough. Def would mention how he’s competing against his dad. I feel like the middle of the song would have an incredible guitar riff.

[wherearemyhatchets]

I’ve been working on an original character for a while, and I think it’s finally time to introduce him…

His name is Aiden Gou, and he’s a detective sergeant that I created for Midsomer Murders. The show obviously isn’t known for having a diverse set of main characters, so that’s part of the reason why I’ve created an Asian detective. But the other reason is just that I’m of Chinese heritage myself, and I’ve always loved crime shows- and I decided to combine that together.

I’ve drawn and listed some information about my oc (and I’m happy to elaborate on that info, shoot me an ask if you wanna know more about him!) and a lot of his background info is inspired from my life.

I have some stories typed up, most of which are about my oc’s relations to canonical characters of Midsomer Murders, and I’ll link them here every time they get posted :) [this post is probably gonna be pinned, for a long time as well]

So now that my logistics are out of the way…here’s my sergeant oc!

Additional info about Aiden:

• Aiden is not Jamie’s replacement, but is an addition to the team (because the thought of Jamie leaving put me in distress); he is part of a detective trio!

• a very stealthy dude who scares the shit out of people because they don’t realize he’s behind them until they turn around or he makes a noise to get their attention (a recurring thing in my stories)

• he used to work under DI Ben Jones! \(^o^)/

• he also met Fleur before- she was invited to do a seminar at Aiden’s university for forensic science (since she’s full of surprises in the show, I decided it would be appropriate)

• Aiden is always gonna be described or seen in a three-piece suit with his sleeves rolled up, but without the actual jacket to complete the outfit…he just substitutes it with a random trench coat 0_0

• the second character of his Chinese name (爱) means “love”

• pronunciation of his surname (Gou): just think of how you would pronounce the word “go”, and that’s honestly the best I can describe it

• are his parents supportive of him being aroace? for my peace of mind, yes, I’ve created that dynamic because it’s a stigma in Chinese culture that I wanted to defy :)

• 180cm is actually tall for dudes from China’s Sichuan province (they’re normally way shorter, but i based Aiden’s height off of what my brother’s predicted height is going to be)

• when I say that Sichuan food is spicy, I mean SPICY, like go search it up on google and you’ll see what I mean 0_0

• Aiden’s hobbies: gaming, watercolour painting, cosplaying (with Jamie, because I may or may not have set them up to be good friends in addition to working together), badminton, photography, mahjong (it’s a game commonly played in China, and specifically common in Sichuan)

• four words: knitting buddies with Jamie (I threw the idea of Jamie’s knitting hobby out there…in some post from a small while back)

• Aiden’s music interests (these are literally my own, pls don’t judge lmao): Coldplay, Bastille, literally any 90s boyband, BTS, EXO, Maroon 5, Imagine Dragons, CNCO

Fics about Aiden and Midsomer Murders:

YOUR ART IS INCREDIBLE YOU’RE HONESTLY SO INSANELY TALENTED I AM HONESTLY IN AWE WHENEVER I SEE ONE OF YOUR ART PIECES, THEY’RE ALWAYS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! And pls ignore those haters they’re absolute idiots who seem to think asians only have certain features apparently and can’t seem to realise that there’s something called creative liberty😐

So many capital letters haha ^^ thank you a lot for your appreciation. *bow 😀 I gonna take your comment as opportunity to write down some thoughts I had on this topic.

Of course I am not painting isolated, I love to browse art from other artists, sometimes getting inspiration or just to get more stimulated. And for sure I stumble sometimes over art which technically is maybe not as refined but somehow hits me, then I stumble over art which is technically extremely good but well... I feel nothing but I still awe the beauty and there is even art which slightly disturbs me and fetishizes something I don't really am into... but dammit it's really well painted and I can just accept that the artist did a great job and I don't need to be in the fetish.

Then, there is also art which is technically undeveloped, due to the painters inexperience for example but I appreciate the try since ik myself, painting is work.

I caught myself a couple of times being about technically extremely versatile artists more critical and then thought.. who am I to judge, went into some introspection and realised: that was pure jealousy. Oh yeah, jealousy, nothing more, that yellow eyed monster within me trying to lower down others just to feel better myself. But... I never released that monster officially of course. In fact, before I leave a critical comment, I think twice and when I comment I just comment on the technical side. If the picture isn't violating any real persons or depicting very, very, very controversial topics like religion or politics to ridicule opinions of other people I basically don't care. Let people paint what they want, I don't need uniformity.

If someone wants to paint the earth is flat, just go ahead! First, idk if the person really thinks the earth is flat... or, is it maybe just some fantasy? Is it just for fun, did the artist just try out how the earth would look flat or is it easier for him to paint the earth kind of flat. Is the painter of that pic maybe someone who had no education and just painted what he sees and tries to imagine how it might look like. Or is the artist just painting something that came into his mind without a lot of thinking and it's now me interpreting something in his flat earth picture which he didn't even think of. But the most important thing: the earth won't get flatter just with that one flat earth painting.

Even with 1000 of that flat earth paintings, it won't. Being an individuum that is able to controle my emotions and to recognise what's important and what not I wouldn't even think to rent about that flat earth artist. Let him paint the flat earth, I can mildly smirk about him or shake my head and move on to the round earth painting I like most. There are more important things than to explode about a flat earth painting.

Now... I am not painting reality, I don't believe in my paintings showing reality or anything remotely close to reality. It's impossible that any character I paint is real. And I clearly distinguish between real people I see on the street or documentaries (I don't say media in general cuz... we only see the most beautiful people in movies or social media with all the filter and photoshop and it gives a contorted view on "reality") and painted anime charas. Recently I saw (oh I got actually an education by one of my "critics" in how I should paint!) a lot of realistic anime character fanarts which clearly just were repaints from given photographies of random prototype Asian models... the technical side was extremely good, forgetting the fact that it still was a repaint and repaint is always a bit easier since u don't need to think about the facial features anymore yourself... but the charas... they looked so realistic, so much like real people that again I wasn't able to see the anime chara anymore. For me it was just the random prototype Asian model (perfect as they are, because, well... model) from the photography with slightly changed hair and... blue eyes.

But! And now that's the big difference, I look at that kind of very realistic fanart and although it doesn't even remotely remind me of that anime chara and I feel nothing for it than some portrait photography repaint, it would never, never come into my mind commenting with (insert the vomit emoji here, cuz that's what happened to my art) a disgracing and hurtful comment just because I think my vision, my very private believe of what is a good fanart stands above anything else and I have the right and privilege to lower the artist in any kind of way. Who am I to feel superior?... exactly, I don't have that right, especially on something very subjective as looks of anime charas in fanart.

I realised by a couple of conversations with people who have no issues with my art that a lot of the hate roots from wanting to feel moral-wise superior. It's like a trend to stomp over everything, doesn't even need to be very important or influential, that doesn't meet the standard of what is moralistic acceptable in one owns subjective believe. Some call it being sensitive about what art should show and I guess the haters would call themselves even very sensitive and caring for over people... but want to be frank here, it's not sensitivity, it's being bored by their own lives and having no creative potential themselves. So.. what are we gonna do today? Complaining, cancelling, hating, yeah, that's a good hobby!

Sorry to inform you that your "sensitivity" is hurting me a lot.

I don't aim to call out specifically with my art to a particular group of people or disgracing them, there is clearly no hate inside or anything, I certainly don't try to portrait reality... dammit it's Anime charas! They aren't real in the first place! Gargh... If someone has an issue with the facial looks of how I paint, I am very very fine with a comment like: "hey you know, somehow I see in my mind Miya Osamu looking more like Toshirou Mifune... but, you know, it's ok, you aren't a mind reader. :) I would like to share my fanart of Osamu with u, too then u can see what I have in mind." That's a respectful, a very constructive and even inviting and mature comment. If I sounded a bit rude in the past towards haters it wasn't because I am rude but I got a couple of very humiliating comments that my only way to answer was to give them the same medicine back they forced me to swallow.

Hfff... so long... sorry.

Idk if haters or immature people who come across my paintings are going to read this and understand what I want to say so just for repeat: I don't have anything bad in mind with my art, I don't try to colonialize Asia, I don't see my art as absolute truth and its not a perfect replication of the original anime character. It's fan-ta-sy. If u don't like the style and aesthetic, move on, paint your own interpretation, that's the best way to put my art aside if u want to put it aside.

And for the people who like my art, you are my heroes, not because u are flattering me with comments (yeah also that tho lol) but because u let me see that there are rational thinking people out there, not oversensitive and in constant alarm to sniff around like blood dogs finding another topic to rent about but just enjoying fanart at what it is: fanart. It's you who enjoy their lives and I am enjoying it, too.

Thank you! :)

[tandv]

What are your thoughts on Toni this season?

I have mixed feelings if I’m being entirely honest.

On one hand I am so so happy for Vanessa for having the screen time she deserved to have from the start.

On the other I’m not entirely satisfied with every choice being made?

I know timing is the real issue here but Toni being pregnant really doesn’t add anything to the plot presently. And I know it’ll be a bigger thing as early as next week, but if she wasn’t pregnant as the show presently stands it would not change anything narratively at all. Some scenes you legitimately cannot even tell she is pregnant.

When it was confirmed Toni would be pregnant in the show I guess I expected it to be more of a thing? I know she’s been preoccupied with other things and that I don’t mind. I really was afraid the baby thing would be her only storyline and I am glad it’s not. I truly am. I just wasn’t a fan of the pregnancy being written in in the first place.

I can’t really judge what will happen with the baby situation in the future but for now it’s just kind of underwhelming tbh. The only references to it have been Archie making a comment about it because he clearly noticed the bump, and then Toni mentioning it to Cheryl and in the same breath suggesting they could be girlfriends again.

Which is another part I’m not entirely fond of. I guess I thought the two would be more in the same camp as the other high school couples? I thought they’d have more independence from each other than they do.

And I know that sounds stupid because clearly they’re not heavily involved. I just mean that I thought Cheryl would have her own life and wouldn’t be someone Toni needed to “save” again.

It is entirely in character for Toni to see someone she cares about being in pain and not living a fulfilling and happy life. That makes sense.

It’s just not any different to who they were 3 episodes ago. Their entire dynamic has relied heavily on Toni needing to support Cheryl and make her life better.

Like it doesn’t feel good to me.

I know that dynamic is going to change now. But I hated that it even started that way.

They hadn’t seen each other in a while and Toni without hesitation was just like “oh we could be together now if you want”

Like ok. You have a whole baby in the oven and you live entirely separate lives but that makes total sense.

And speaking of the baby again. I think I’m in the minority here because I’m not a fan of the surrogacy theory? Idk I just don’t think a baby really even belongs in the show given the history of how they treat babies lol. And if Vanessa wasn’t pregnant this wouldn’t have been a storyline at all either way. So it’s still something that just feels like kinda lazy writing.

And I get that it’s easier to write in a pregnancy instead of hiding her behind desks and bags and camera angles.

I just don’t know how a baby will fit in in general?

If it is Kevin and Fangs’ baby. Then that means the show can have a pass to just be lazy and not give kangs anything outside of that. They’ll just be the background gays with a baby. No more effort needed to work toward their future or whatever else the other couples will get to do in the forefront of their storylines.

If it is Toni’s then that adds the whole complication of what happens when her and Cheryl eventually reconcile? Will they just be the same as they were in high school? Leaving the kid with a senile old lady and being inconvenienced by the child when they wanna have sex or have fun? Like. What does a baby add to their future relationship when it didn’t work out the first time story wise.

But also low key adds to the biphobic trope of sapphic couples needing the bisexual to have meaningless sex with a man so they can have a drama with their girlfriends via a baby

Babies just don’t fit in this show and I know I sound bitter or that I’m worrying about something that doesn’t really matter. But it bothers me for some reason sjsjs

But yeah if it’s Toni’s child then idk it could be so messy when adding a father to it. Especially if it’s someone we know. Idk at this point I don’t love any of the options when it comes to the baby situation. And that sucks because I am happy for Vanessa and happy she gets to do the pregnancy thing on screen while she was going through her own. That seems like something she enjoyed doing and I love that for her.

I just don’t understand what is going on and how it will work?

And as for Toni as a whole. I don’t mind the whole school storyline and her having something that showcases her big heart and her passion for her community. I love that. I do. That’s one positive.

But can we also have like her hobbies. Her photography. Let’s see that come back. Let’s see more of Toni outside of Cheryl and outside of her battle with Hiram. Give us more of her working with Alice! The relationship she has with her roommates! Gimme more of her in different dynamics and doing different things. I want everything I can get of Toni pls.

Damage | Jack Avery

Warnings? Angst? Idk this isn’t good I’m sorry 

Requested? Yes! I hope you like it and if you want a part 2 pls let me know! 

Summary: Jack and you have been best friends since kindergarten. You two grow up together and eventually you become the photographer for his band Why Don’t We. During your job, you and Jacks bandmate Daniel get together. After a long time of dating though, Daniel gets jealous when fans continue to ship you and Jack and Jack’s feelings can’t help but resurface.

Word Count: 2,308 (it’s a long one with a lot of exposition) 

Part Two is here

Five Years Old 

“Jack! Come downstairs for your playdate!” Jack comes barreling down the stairs, nearly ramming straight into his mom and she laughs lightly. 

“Momma who's coming over?” He asks and she squats down to talk to him. 

“Momma's best friend has a daughter your age and we think you guys will be best friends.'' Just as she finishes talking, the doorbell rings and Jack goes running again. His mom takes off after him to catch up just as he's opening the door. 

"Hi Jack! Did you get taIIer?" (y/n)'s mom greets Jack warmly and he smiles. 

Jack's mom greets (y/n)'s mom and the two get caught up just long enough for Jack to stare curiously at the other girl. Before the two can get too antsy and run off, (y/n)’s mom introduces (y/n). 

“Jack, this is (y/n), (y/n), this is Jack,” The two wave shyly at each other and the two moms smile fondly at the sight. 

“Why don’t you two go play outside while we catch up?” 

Jack turns around and speeds off, (y/n) close in tow. He swings open the backdoor and straight for the giant play set in the back. The two run around, playing a sort of chase, up and down the slide, before getting tired and settling on the swings. 

“What’s your favorite color?” Jack asks.

“Pink!” (y/n) exclaims. “What about you?” 

“Green.” 

The two go back and forth like this and by the end, they’ve decided they’re best friends. When (y/n)’s mom comes to get her a few hours later, she protests, insisting she never wants to leave. The two hug tightly and part with the promise that you'll be over again soon. 

12 Years Old 

"(y/n)! Jack is here!" (y/n)'s mom yells up the stairs. 

Before she can respond, her childhood best friend comes barging into the room. He plops onto her bed, instantly relaxing and she turns from her spot at her desk to look at him. 

"What's up?" She asks.

"How am I supposed to ask Anna to the dance?"  He sighs dramatically and she smiles. She  stands up and lays down next to Jack. 

"Just ask her. She obviously likes you." She responds and he rolls his eyes.

The first school dance of the year was this friday and Jack had been freaking out about asking his crush to go with him for weeks. (y/n) had been trying to convince him forever but he insisted she was going to say no. 

"What if she says no?"

"Then you're sad for a bit and then you get up and party at the dance with me." That cracks a smile and the two are back to their normal activities. 

16 Years Old 

“What do you think we'll be doing ten years from now?” (y/n) asks Jack as she rolls over on his bed to face him. 

“I'll be a famous singer and you'll be a photographer. We'll travel the world together and live out our best lives.” She smiles, and Jack turns back around to continue working on his new song. 

As he works, she takes a few Polaroids of him and judges which ones to keep, add to her portfolio and which ones to give to Jack. Just as she sits back down, Jack's mom comes in and knocks on the door. 

“Dinners ready! (y/n) are you staying the night?” She asks and (y/n) looks over at Jack who nods and she copies the action. 

“Sounds good,” His mom says before disappearing again. 

Ever since Jack and (y/n) hit middle school years, they ended up sleeping over at each others houses. Their moms decided that they trusted the other enough for sleepovers, and soon they became a regularity. 

"We'll always be friends right?" (y/n) asks once the two are settled for bed after dinner.

"Always." He smiles and it goes straight to her heart. 

Present Day

"What do you guys have going on today?" (y/n) asks as the boys gather in the living room to leave.

"Meetings, interviews, more meetings." Daniel says while sitting down next to you and pecking your cheek. "You?" 

"A photoshoot and that's it.'' She tells him and he nods.

"Have fun my love." He says kissing her and standing up again. Jack comes up and kisses the top of (y/n)'s head and tells her to have a good day before leaving with the rest of the guys.

3 years ago (y/n)'s best friend had joined a band and ever since they've taken off. Millions of followers, several eps, an album, and another tour coming up here you were. Her best friend had traveled the world and she fell in love with his band mate. Life seemed perfect.

Ever since Jack had taken off in his career (y/n) hasn't been far behind. At the beginning of the band's career she had taken all of their photos. Overtime other artists and influencers have reached out to her and asked her to take photos for their own profiles. She had begun to take off with Jack by her side. 

That was also how she met Daniel. (y/n) first started staying with the band shortly after they all moved to LA and she picked up a few photography jobs. Daniel and her hit it off right away and three years later they were here. Taking on the world by storm.

The boys seemed to have never ending meeting that was starting to take a toll. Zach looked like he was going fall asleep, Daniel wouldn't stop tapping his pen on the table, Jonah was doodling, Corbyn was on his phone like he was still in high school, and Jack was daydreaming. They were usually better than this in meetings, but it felt like they had been going in circles for days. 

"Last two things," The execs say and an audible sigh can be heard around the room. "Your opener and your photographer. Who do you want?" 

"Wait, we can bring a photographer with us?" Daniel perks up and Jack does the  same. 

"Whoever you want." 

The boys come home that day more excited than ever. (y/n) had just gotten home from her shoot and was flipping through the photos she had taken when they came practically crashing through the front door. The loud noise causes her to jump, and she spins around to see them bounding through the door. 

“(y/n)!!” Jack and Daniel both yell at the same time and she sits up quickly. 

“What’s up?” She asks confused as to what the big commotion has been about. 

“You free for the next few months?” Jack asks.

Once the boys settle enough to explain that they would pay (y/n) to tour with them and take their pictures she practically has the same reaction as they did. She had been wanting to do a tour with an artist for as long as she could remember and now to have this opportunity especially with her best friends was a dream come true. 

We work out the details and (y/n) leaves the house practically screaming inside and out. This was everything to her and she couldn’t believe this was actually going to happen. She was also so excited to travel with her best friends and essentially make great memories for months. 

Two Months Later

“Do you have your laptop?” (y/n)’s mom asks, frantically turning around to look around her near empty apartment. 

“In my backpack,” She tells her. 

“Your chargers? Enough film? Your SD cards? Did you pack enough socks?” She asks and (y/n) sighs. 

“Ma,” She says and her mom smiles. “I got it.” 

“Okay baby I love you,” She says and (y/n) hugs her mom tight and promises to call as much as possible. Just as they let go, (y/n) hears the shrill beep from the boys car and grabs her bags. 

She heads down to the car, where Daniel and Jack meet her. They grab her bags and put them into the trunk before climbing back into the car and diving head first into a summer they would never forget. 

“Are you serious?” She asks. 

“Dead. Come on!” Corbyn begs (y/n) and she rolls her eyes but holds her camera up regardless. 

Her and the boys were stuck in the airport for at least another half an hour and came up with the brilliant idea to snap some photos while they waited for the plane. Corbyn grips his favorite pillow in his arms, offering a pleading look towards (y/n) as he insists it’ll be a perfect photo for his instagram. She relents finally, and kneels down, getting the perfect angle and snaps shot after shot. 

“Flight 247 to Las Vegas now boarding,” The overhead speaker announces and Corbyn and (y/n) spring up. 

Corbyn grabs his stuff and she follows, running over to where she left hers to find it gone. Her heart drops for a second before she hears a whistle. She snaps her head to the side, seeing Jack raising her backpack in his hand and she smiles gratefully before running over with Corbyn just behind her.

“Gonna need this to start the best summer ever,” Jack says, handing the backpack over with a wink and (y/n) sighs. 

When we land in Las Vegas, we head to the hotel first, dropping off our suitcases and getting everything settled. While (y/n) would get her own room, the rest of the boys had to share one way or another. But they were always on the same floor and ran around to hang out with each other in one room. 

“(y/n)! My beautiful!” Daniel yells walking into your room. “Wanna explore?” 

“Would love to.” 

Daniel and (y/n) head out together with a quick message to the groupchat where they would be. They decide to catch an Uber to the venue and dinner somewhere close considering they haven’t eaten since before they had taken off in Los angeles. 

Just as they get to the venue, Daniel takes her hand, carefully intertwining their fingers and leads her around the place. She can’t help it, and takes out her phone and snaps a couple of photos as Daniel walks in front of her and when he hears the familiar click of a camera, he turns around. 

“Oh come on,” Daniel jokes and (y/n) smiles sheepishly. 

“I can’t help it! You look great and the lighting is unique.” 

She gestures for Daniel to move and she plops down, snapping a few photos. When Daniel has had enough, he moves towards the girl and pretends to come at her like he’s gonna tackle her. She falls back and Daniel ends up hovering over her, a wide smile plastered across his perfect features. 

He leans down, placing a light kiss on her lips and (y/n) reciprocates by leaning up to deepen it. Just as she goes to reach her arms around Daniels neck, someone clears their throat. The two separate and Daniel rolls over to sit down next to her. 

“Am I interrupting?” Jack asks walking over. 

“A little,” Daniel says and (y/n) rolls her eyes. She raises a hand and Jack helps her up. 

“What were you guys doing?” He asks once she’s standing. 

“Oh I was just taking some photos of Daniel,” (y/n) explains gesturing to the scene around her and Jack nods. Over the years he had gotten used to spontaneous photoshoots and could practically spot a perfect picture spot as well as she could. 

“By the way, the fans are obsessed with our photos on instagram,” Jack mentions and Daniel tilts his head to the side. By now he’s moved so he has an arm around (y/n)’s waist and is staring curiously at the younger boy. 

“Corbyn wanted to use my camera so I let him take a few photos of me and Jack,” (y/n) explains looking at Daniel. “How bad are the comments though?” 

“Well,” 

For the past three months, every time Jack and (y/n) posted a picture together on either one's social media the fans went nuts. They “shipped” Jack and (y/n) like crazy and blatantly ignored (y/n)’s current relationship with Daniel. Some fans really just had no boundaries and Daniel was honestly getting tired, (y/n) was hoping to do damage control, and Jack was hoping his secret crush of 13 years wouldn’t get out. 

“Come on man, did you really have to post the photos? You know how bad the fans have been,” Daniel complains and you turn in his arms. 

“Woah, it’s not Jack’s fault they have no boundaries,” (y/n) says defending her best friend. 

“And you can’t tell me what I can and can’t post,” Jack snaps back. 

“Jack chill,” (y/n) says fully stepping out of Daniels arms to get in between the two boys. 

“What’s your damage?” Daniel asks and Jack takes a step forward causing you to take one back. 

“I think you know exactly what my damage is. Don’t act like you didn’t ask for this.” 

“You had your chance man. Don’t act all high and mighty now,” Daniel says and Jack rolls his eyes. 

“You’re one to talk,” He declares and pushes past Daniel and storms off. (y/n) stares at where Jack walks off for a second, shocked at the random argument that occured before turning towards her boyfriend. 

“What the hell was that?” She asks. 

“Something you don’t want to get into,” He responds before walking away. 

(y/n) stands there for a moment, unsure of what to do or even who to choose. What was that argument even about?

hello! thank you so much for the encouragement! it means a lot to me :>

it’s alright, submissions are fine as well!

i match you up with kuroo tetsurou!

-kuroo adores that you like to wear oversized clothing, and his closet is open for you to raid if you want more. he 100% wants to see you in his clothing.

-i headcanon that kuroo has a style similar to yours. he’ll be up to shop with you if you want! also, he knows you can handle carrying your own shopping bags, but please let him carry them. he’s lowkey a simp he just wants to treat you like a queen.

-kuroo loves that you’re very kind. i bet he calls you “my angel” or “angel” in front of others with no shame (that’s so cute ohmy :< )  kuroo isn’t mean, but he’s a little bit of an ass ngl. He teases people a lot, sometimes too much, but you just accept his teasing. He likes that you’re patient with him if anyone tries to take advantage of your kindness, kuroo is right behind you. He will not hesitate to be petty and fight them.

-you guys are actually very similar!! kuroo is very confident and looks very intimidating, but he’s just pure crackhead energy outside volleyball. you guys end up doing really weird things, and yaku is very concerned. there was a time where yaku caught you two trying out some weird tik-tok trend (that kuroo proposed you should do) before practice. there have been countless of times yaku has seen you two rap to songs together, going all out. needless to say, yaku stays very amused. 

-kuroo loves to help you out with photography! If you need to go somewhere to shoot, he’ll accompany you. He jokes that he should be your muse; you don’t know how to tell him that he already is and that you have a folder just for the candid pictures you take of him. 

-he’ll come with you to work out! you guys are that one power couple in the gym that no one bothers. Not even the people who want to ask for your number or kuroo’s number. They know that you guys are together. Period.

-on days where you just want to laze around, kuroo’s right there with you! he’s prepared with the food you like and more than ready to stay in bed with you all day.

*photo is not mine

hope you liked this!

[creepypocky]

hi i would like to request a romantic matchup if that's ok!

my pronouns are they/them and i am bi :)

also i am a capricorn sun, gemini moon and cancer rising.

i am very much an introvert and tend to be very closed off. i have a hard time trusting/being open with people.

my style is more on the grunge side, lot's of flannels and baggy pants. mostly just stuff that is comfortable! i wear a lot of jewelry that have crystals on them and i wear lots of rings.

hobbies of mine are painting, making pottery and photography. i also play bass guitar. i am rlly interested in crystals, astrology and tarot cards, stuff like that is just cool to me!

a goal of mine is to be more social and go out more often.

i tend to enjoy people who have a good sense of humor and can make me laugh :) i do not particularly like people who are loud and/or arrogant.

i like to go on walks in nature, just through the woods and stuff. i also really like plants and mushrooms. i dislike hot weather. gross. that's about it!

thank you ! :))

So sorry this took me a little while to get to! I will get to writing this fabulous matchup now. :)

|| I match you with: Jane The Killer! ||

For some reason while reading this, she really came to mind and I am going to make it make sense no matter how weird I sound!!!

Now first of all, she 5000% understands not feeling like you can trust or be open with people, especially since she constantly has to watch her back because of Jeff and the other asshole creeps she's constantly around. It's so draining for her and she's super introverted too and just loves her alone time.

Regardless, she never pressures you to trust her and she lets you have your space until you're ready to talk to her about things and she won't judge you for anything, she will mostly just listen to you vent and only give advice if you want her to. She just wants you to be as comfortable as possible, tbh.

When you two meet though, she feels relieved to finally be around someone who isn't either loud and immature, or super passive aggressive. You get along with her fast and it ends up turning into something more, congratulations. (Lmao sorry)

She loves your jewelry, when the two of you are ever cuddling or are close she loves to just trace along your rings and feel the material because it's like she's feeling a part of you and she loves it.

She also loves to watch you whenever you do artistic stuff such as painting and pottery, she finds it so satisfied and loves the work you put into the stuff. She'll also be there by your side to give you suggestions. (Even though this girl doesn't even know very much about art she still likes to try)

She does know a bit about photography though, she likes to take you outside and into the woods to take pictures of the trees and the sky with you and then the two of you will just relax under a tree as you look through the photos.

She's never understood tarot cards that much, but she has an open mind and loves to hear you just talk about them and help her understand how they work. She is into astrology though and likes to base a lot of stuff on star signs, and likes to lay outside with you when its night and the stars are out just to talk about them or talk to you about random stuff that comes to mind.

Also even though she's mostly mature she still has anger issues and will lash out when the creeps fuck with her so at time you'll have to try and restrain her because she can get worked up.

She is introverted but she isn't shy, so if you ever wanted to try and go out more she would 100% be by your side and help you be more social with people because she just wants to see you happy, pls this girl cares for u a lot.

She's very mature but don't worry, she still has a bit of a sense of humor left in her dark soul. It can be a bit dry at times but she manages to pull it off, anything to see that sweet smile on your face tbh. If she fails she will simply laugh it off and try again.

Jane also dislikes people who are loud and arrogant, they are simply just annoying to her and she finds their behavior obnoxious and unnecessary. She just wants her quiet time with her S/O, smh.

Omg she would just kill to go on a walk with you for a whole day, honestly just anything to get out of that house full of loud and sweaty idiots. She will hold your hand and look at all the nature with you.

If she ever goes out she'll most definitely buy you some plants to keep in your room since you like them.

She's pretty indifferent about weather tbh since because of her job she has to adapt to things like that but she'll keep in mind that you don't like hot weather for future reference.

~~~ There you go, hon. :)

I hope you enjoyed this matchup as much as I enjoyed reading it. Have an amazing day/night and make to take care of yourself.

Mun name: birdie OOC Contact: instant messenger and asks ( bc im always on mobile ) or sky.pe and k.ik, if we’re close mutuals 

Who the heck is are my muse muses anyway:

alison clair: a fashion designer who used to be a prostitute and has experienced various toxic relationships in her life and still feels the effects of them even now ( self-hate, think she’s inadequate, thinks the toxic relationships are her fault in a way ). has lots of love to give, very creative and artsy, wears a lot of pastel colors and can probably make you an entire outfit if you ask her nicely. 

emile clair: ali’s twin brother ( he’s older! ) who is an overgrown boy scout but can’t go outside as much as he wants because he has an office job ( legal aid ). has a soft spot for plants, hates the other two male muses on this blog, awkward af around attractive people, hella gay but has been hiding this fact about himself for years and has only recently come to terms with it ( sort of ).

cedric privett: alison’s first boyfriend in high school; wealthy and sort of bratty but lives more humbly than people might think. is best friends with nate and teased emile for being gay in high school. verbally abusive to alison in high school. is currently a bartender who reads a lot and has to deal with drunken fights at his bar more often than he likes. will probably flirt with you muse a lot.

nate cain: a terrible person. ali’s second “boyfriend” in high school. took advantage of her in high school and her virginity. physically abused her and verbally abused emile for being gay. hates his parents because they treated him like shit and was in foster homes all of his childhood and early teen years. has bipolar II disorder. is currently djing for money and has a fucked up sleep cycle. 

Points of interest:

alison: is super nice and bubbly, loves cats and flowers, wears mostly pink, will scrapbook and take a lot of photos, will probably love your muse or grow really attached , can be super self conscious about silly things, pls take care of her.

emile: will probably invite your muse to go hiking or bird watching, loves the rain and succulents, stutters a lot when talking to strangers and does embarrassing things, is tol and can help your muse reach stuff. 

cedric: sarcastic, speaks in a proper manner, dresses like he’s all that because he can afford nice clothes, has read lots of books, will judge you on your drink choices, always looks like he’s making bedroom eyes at you probably, is fake af 

nate: looks done 97% of the time with life, replies in short sentences and in a monotonous tone, looks tired, probably never awake when you are, makes great music though and will call you out if he thinks you listen to trash, curses a lot 

What they’ve been up to recently:

alison: living day to day and trying to recover from her past. picking up a lot of hobbies and trying to keep herself busy and healthy ( though she could always use some extra help with the healthy part ). has just been assigned to work on a new fashion line with her aunt ( who owns the company ali works for ) so that’s been keeping her real busy.

emile: trying to not hate his job but it’s not working but at least his cat keeps him happy. trying to also come out of his shell more and get into the dating scene but that’s also not working as well. he’s learned a few new knots though so that’s pretty cool. 

cedric: not on the best terms with his parents but he’s gotta deal with them anyway, is co-owner of a popular bar, is trying not to remember alison and had to deal with nate’s bullshit even more now since he’s back in town 

nate: finally freed from high school and has taken a few college classes online but nothing to get a degree. really focused on making music with other collaborators and is hella enjoying the launchpad he got himself a few years ago. internally denies everything that’s happened with alison and is skipping out on therapy that he’s suppose to be going to for his condition 

Where to find them:

alison: at her office, at cafes, at fashion shows or charity events, the bar, her apartment, the park

emile: in his office at his father’s law firm, outside in park, at the farmer’s market, in his apartment, at a cafe, rarely at the bar but you can try, at marathons bc this boy likes to run, at the train station bc this boy hates to drive and cares too much about the environment 

cedric: at his bar ( the best place ), a bookstore, a restaurant or cafe, at his parents’ place, at a party his parents’ are throwing, at an office party he didn’t want to go to but got dragged into

nate: in bed, at a fast food place, at a night club or a strip club, at a bar probably getting into a fight, in an alley probably finishing that fight

Current plans:

alison: looking for more models for her clothes or for her photography hobby, sketching, trying to not skip meals, and trying to find her prince charming ( or someone to hook up with and make her feel useful and safe ). is thinking about going to school one day to become a nurse but that’ll have to wait when she has more money saved up.

emile: is also thinking about going back to school bc law is now the path for him but who knows what he’ll do ( he’s thinking history ). really determined to get back into the dating scene and meet cute people but social anxiety is an awful thing and he needs lots of patience to overcome it. really wants to get back into hiking 

cedric: taking care of nate, trying to please his parents but also trying to piss them off at the same time by having more hookups, is pretty happy with where he is in life though taking care of nate can be real draining

nate: live through the self hatred and make music to keep himself sane, currently in a stable relationship with someone so that’s always exciting. he doesn’t really do much, but he’s living so that’s good for him 

Desired interactions:

alison: more toxic relationships bc she always seems to attract people that aren’t so good for her, and i like to cause her pain, old clients or new ones since she does have a harlot verse, gal pals are the best, and ?? really difficult people?? i’ve always wanted to see how alison handles difficult people. oh and one night stands bc a girl has needs

emile: more dates, emile crushing really hard on a male muse and it’s possibly unrequited or emile just hasn’t had the guts to tell your muse yet and one day he just blurts it out, someone teaching emile how to kiss or hike up his flirting game 

cedric: be his friend and bitch about things with him, try to be his sugar baby and see how far it takes you, call him out for being so fake

nate: former one night stand coming back and trying to get involved in nate’s life even though he has a gf, someone nate got in a fight with recognizing him and trying to get a rematch, roommates au tbh 

Offered interactions:

alison: is super helpful and nice so she’s always willing to help your muse out or keep them company at like a bus stop or something. known to strike up random conversations. will offer to help fix a hole in your muse’s clothes if it ever happens ( like a wardrobe malfunction ). likes to try new foods and see new things so invite her out and have fun!!

emile: will tell you lots of stuff about his plants if you ask ( or just nature in general ), is really good at painting and wouldn’t mind helping you impress someone you like by painting you a picture and selling it to you, has really good taste in coffee and can help you find the right brew, will let you pet his cat if you’re sad. 

cedric: he’s pretty good at telling when people have had too much so he’ll shut you down real quick if you ask and he’s certain you’re shitfaced, he has a lot of good recommendations when it comes to books, he probably won’t remember you if you told him you guys slept together but you can always remind him 

nate: lmao nate never wants to come out but if you’re looking for a fight or wants someone to play video games with nate is your man 

Current open post/s:

open tag is here!! mutuals only please.

Anything else?:

hi a shy bean in central time zone. i love multiple thread with the same person and i dont mind if you send me ten memes, love me

The Boyz - No Air (A Song of Ice and Fire)

These are gonna be super fucking long, just fair warning.

Hello again and welcome to another round of Delphine nitpicking a performance into the oblivion!

Honorable mention to my roommate who desperately despises kpop with all their heart but watched this performance (and the other TBZ performance) with me to help me get some insight on how attuned to GOT the performance was since I've never watched the show or read the books. For reference, they have read the books, watched the tv show and in their free time they listen to extensive opinion pieces and analytical essays on GOT. So I'd personally put their knowledge pretty high, but once again this is like a second hand account so sorry if I get things wrong.

ALRIGHT LETS GET IT!!

First, I wanna talk a bit about the pre-performance clips. I really liked the underwater photography studio idea as a way to feel and show desperation. I personally would need to do something else as I'm not afraid of water but I think that the literal concept of not having air is interesting and a good direction. I'm also really proud of Sunwoo for working so hard despite his fear, and I'm really touched by Younghoon specifically going back into the tank to help. Side note but pufferfish New hehehehe.

I genuinely wish they had used more of the film and photography from the session for the actual performance. I feel like a short pre-performance film would've really elevated the storyline, especially since they're trying to reference GOT which is (as according to the books and the show UP TO where the books ended, yknow, pre-season 8) really, really plot and lore based. Not to dive too deep into the theme yet but I feel as though a lot of TBZ's performances in Kingdom (which are really just this one and then O Sole Mio (Red Wedding) in round 2) aren't really expressing the full extent of their themes.

What I mean by this is that anyone who has read A Song of Ice and Fire (ASIF, pls dont @ me if this is the wrong acronym bc idk??) probably knows that TBZ performance wasn't really based in any events of the book or any themes of it. No Air is a desperate love song and there's plenty of desperation in ASIF but it really feels like TBZ did a mix of inspired by ice and fire (the literal elements) and set in ASIF (physical location markers). According to my roommate, the set pieces are recognizably places in ASIF but the performance didn't really track the themes present in the novel. I'll get to the Red Wedding later as well, but in both performances although TBZ were clearly trying to track some level of GOT's, it feels underdeveloped and therefore to me feels clunky, which is a bit disappointing because TBZ are masters of concepts and executing new ideas. Not sure if this makes sense but I guess if I had to summarize, it would be that they're taking inspiration from the name and title of things rather than the actual source material so it doesn't feel as effect in some ways. STILL, if I consider it operating on the level of just ice and fire rather than by GOT, they did a beautiful job!

Consider this: No Air is originally a bit more of an upbeat rhythm and melody but the way they toned it to be almost kind of in minor key to fit the desperation theme? Whoever's doing arrangement is putting out stuff that's really amazing. On top of that, the drum beats in the baseline add to that same feeling and then to have the turn around where the melody gets softer before the chorus, is a beautiful touch of contrast that really draws together the tender side of a desperate love. And the first chorus feels almost defeated, longing and yearning. I feel like the flow of the music really fit a tragic romance storyline, which I just love about TBZ.

Even with their less than stellar (imo) execution of theme, they're still putting out completely new and incredible ideas. Starting even with the 100 sec performances in which they did the hands thing and now with the POV camera direction, TBZ are taking full advantage of the stage and it's set up, which I cheer at every time I see it. Even the other groups are were picking up their ideas! See Stealer (The Scene) by SF9 in which Zuho "fights" the camera.

ALSO a quick note on the beginning camera work!! They show the frozen zombies (an allusion to the white walkers I assume) and they're completely stiff but then the camera moves towards Juyeon and the woman's arms take off one of his wrist cuffs before turning and you see that the zombies have moved!! And then there's a quick shot that as she's turned around to take off the other cuff, the zombies start to move again. That's a really smart way of setting up the kind of stakes in the moment, that if she doesn't get Juyeon free quickly then she'll be attacked and overtaken and Juyeon will stay trapped. The blocking in this moment is immaculate as far as story telling goes!! I love when the camera contributes to the theme and storyline, very much a show don't tell kind of thing. Love that for them.

The stretch screen is also a really interesting idea! I'm not sure how it correlates to ASIF or their theme necessarily, I think it's more of a performance aspect but literally Juyeon What The Fuck. He's genuinely so talented and it stems from his dedication and hard work. They kind of mention in the pre-performance clips that he's really harsh on himself and cries after performances when they don't do well, but legit I thought he did so, so well here. His expressions were really forlorn at first and once again, those dance moves!! Bro!!

On the topic of expressions, because one of their main themes is desperation, I watched really closely to how they were expressing that with their faces and bodies. I'm judging body language differently, since kpop dances tend to really favor the more hip hop, sharp isolation style and I can't view it like, oh they should've done contemporary dance.

Kevin's opening line gave me goosebumps. The kind of build up in the strings to his cool but forceful voice, mmph. I think Haknyeon's anger is also a really nice touch because desperation may be based in sadness but it's real expression usually comes out in anger. In that last do or die moment, are you cowering and hiding in an attempt to survive or do you fight back? The human body has a natural instinct to thrash around and reach for anything you can when you drown, and it feels like a fight because it is one. So although TBZ is aiming for a sad and tragic love story, because their main theme is what it is, I like that they included different sides from fury to despair. Sunwoo's little head toss back was really good too, both technically and thematically.

Honestly I don't know who choreo'd this but I really liked it. They definitely choreo'd it with the camera in mind, which I mean, everyone did but their was really smooth and easy to flow with. People were walking off camera nonchalantly, as opposed to sprinting off. It's something that ATEEZ had trouble with in the 100 sec performance (in the pre-performance clip) so you can see TBZ experience in performing the live take on the Kingdom stage (which I've mentioned before is a really unconventional type of stage). Plus because the arrangement slows in different places, they have little moments of tragic love as well (like pre-chorus when the camera unblindfolds Hyunjae or post-chorus when Haknyeon, Kevin, Sangyeon, and Jacob hold the lover's hands tenderly), which just emphasizes their desperation! I feel like I'm repeating myself a lot but tbh that just goes to show how in tuned TBZ are with their emotional theme. Another thing is the zombies, which continues the theme from before that they're fighting somehow to stay with their lover or that their time is in danger. Sunwoo dangling over the hoard, like okay. Okay! I see you! Oof, props to you choreographer, props to you.

YOUNGHOON!!! What an actor man, he's got such a diverse range of facial expressions. He really pulls off the kind of empty, forlorn look, ugh. Please get this man a role in a drama, 11/10 would watch. Honestly Juyeon too, please guys I'm too wear for those intense, piercing looks.

That last moment is interesting. It's almost like they're flinging their lover away from the fire, rejecting them so they'll be safe? The explosion in the back honestly doesn't make a lot of sense except as some kind of climactic moment but I don't think they needed it. It doesn't really fit the story they were telling, nor does it set up for their next performance so like. Why lol.

I'm new TBZ and I've been kind of eating up content from them, but especially because I got to know them through RTK, I had really high expectations for them now. I think they're still doing wonderfully, especially between the new creative freedoms Kingdom offers. But I also think they're suffering what I've previously described as the kind of burden to come up with something that fits in the set.

A quick recap: Because RTK had less budget and was smaller, the props and sets were a lot more simple and specific. Each group had to create stories using limited props which forced them to be more technically advanced with their formations, dance moves, arrangements etc. Because Kingdom has more budget and can now create elaborate sets and costumes etc, I think the groups are somehow less diverse and creative here than in RTK. Their technical skill still shines through but it feels like a lot of it gets covered with the sets and stuff.

So like in RTK, TBZ made ample usage of their own bodies to tell stories whereas now it feels like they're not doing that and it makes me sad in some ways because I think that's the appeal of a competition show. That you're allowed to make more story telling with your own body, instead of following pure performance choreography like in normal performances. Something that comes to mind for example is like The Eve from EXO. The song is supposedly about standing up to corruption but the dance is uh. Sexy and honestly not very aligned with the song. So like that's kind of a choreography and performance for the sake of performance. But on RTK, groups were able to have more themed storytelling and TBZ were a master of it, from thieves in Danger to revolutionaries in Reveal. So I'm just a little sad to see that kind of vanish with the budgeting that comes with Kingdom.

Despite all that, I still think TBZ have put on a great performance and it's still really interesting and fun to watch. I hope that their future performances allow them a little more creativity and storytelling with their bodies and techniques, with the set pieces helping enhance that rather than hinder it.

Mortisum City

Quote from my Tumblr blog, will eventually rewrite them — "Omggg, so I was thinking the basics of what city, Ferdinand and Sigrid who used to live there, would be like, and based on what I said about it in the tags from the previous post with the creativity and wonder part, my mind literally told me, “lmfao, bitch pls, don’t even think the city would actually be that pleasant in the end,” because fucking Mortisum City is definitely full of… overly creative people, as a better term to use rather than saying "extremely fucked up.”

These people, they are rather brainwashed and they have this thought in their head that they should keep on making arts — like they have to. By who, exactly? Probably whoever is leading the city as a leader of sort. Fame and money is more important to anyone’s mind other than teamworks and friendships. Every day is like a competition to an individual or they would be pushed with the pressure, slowly making them snap before breaking, because they would always be judged by someone who’s with them, at home, school, just as anywhere, and it’s worse for people who have anxiety, low self-esteem, anything that would be the reasons of having lack of confidence or diffuclties doing any sorts of arts.

To judge and give criticisms, even over little things that can be treated in such harsh and disrespectful manners, rather than friendly pointing it out, is pretty much one of the rules in Mortisum City people — mainly adults and those who are professionals towards such arts, or considered to be “normal.” It’s one of the city’s mental methods of seeing who have anxiety, low self-esteem, and ecetera, because the majority of people, they believe that you have to be confident and “over the top” to express your creativity, so you won’t get in anyone’s ways when it comes to performances and such. But when someone catches them, usually they would be punished from physical to mental or emotional stage, as to “help” make them feel better, it’s just so disturbing.

People there are mainly known to be narcisstistic, backstabbers, show-off, selfish, theives, and so many more along the traits, it’s just fucking awful and depressing to know that rather than being inspired to draw, it’s more common to be inspired being an art thief just to avoid being judged, and ugh, I feel extremely bad for anyone who has to suffer there, definitely Sigrid and Fred as they would be shaking badly over their experiences at the city….

It terrifies me to think how people would freak when they lost their sparks of motivating themself, or lost interest in doing what they were doing in the past, and the one of the common ways to gain interest is to do what is the most abnormal things, to the outsiders’ eyes, and you may guess it right, they would use real blood, organs and corpses to show their creativity, and that’s when things get extremely fucked up from there.

Every each year, there would be a citywide competitions on each category ( drawing, dancing, writing, photography, sculptures, music — any other forms of arts not mentioned are not as popular as what is to be a choice to take interest in as they are considered to be “banned” ), as to which is the most creative, if also hits most of the criterias. It is mandatory for those who are at the age of thirteen to eighteen to participate, or they will be disqualified. What happens if they do, we’ll get there. But judges, six each, but usually the leader makes their final word, but they would allow the judges to decide in most rounds and competition. In average, there are at least six hundred teenagers as overall participators, hundred for each category, and the chosen ones are half of the numbers of the overall participators, but the first ten chosen ones are known to be the most well known of the city.

When the competition is over, there will be a huge festival and feast as a celebration of how they make the year colourful and do the same to the new year, only until the end, there will be an annoucement from the leader on who have been choosen by the judges, if accepted by the leader. Only the participators of the city will go to a colosseum, while the adults and those younger than thirteen may only watch with a hologram that takes the entire sky over the sky while there are speakers at every streets and places, or from their TV at home, and when the leader finishes the list of the selected participators, to those who wasn’t mentioned, same applies to those who are disqualified, they are to be tortured or killed, either by the choosen ones or the people who are responsible of taking the defeated ones to the center, and it can be a bonus of making the torture or kill into art and display them at the area where it tells with a photo of who are the participators in each citywide competition and uses the head to display the defeated ones, while the winners would get a lovely photo in a gold-made frame, while the ten first mentioned winners get in a frame, carved and made in diamonds.

It does not matter how you look in that lovely suit, or how you express in emotions when you’re being taken the photo, it only shows memories to a reminder, you have survived another colourful year in Mortisum City."

---------

"So, talking about Mortisum City once again ( as I’m feeling better now from that other note about it, whe w ), I was thinking when a teen hits eighteen and they’re able to make it through the citywide competitions that’s been done each years, they graduate ( they would say the ceremony words before they slit their right wrist with a small knife and have their blood mixed to the red paint, mix them before they would paint a heart shape on their left hand ). But the way the competition works is kinda like modern high school ( except few before the age of fifteen children will be involved also ), people have to study and practice for several weeks until the last, and when it’s showtime, it’s like their big test, if you pass, you can move on to a higher grade, if not, well….

But if someone becomes a part as a citizen of the city when they’re nineteen to twenty one years old, like high school ( at least where I go to, since not every high schools allows students to say there until they’re twenty one ), they will have to go to the competition just once and if they make it through, then they can graduate, as most people would assume they are extremely talented in arts and they know the rules and traditions in Mortisum City ( more or less the risks they’re willing to take ), and they’re not allowed to leave until they die, so either they wish to leave or not, they’re permanently a citizen and will be killed if they tried to escape. They will also be killed if they don’t wish to participate the competition, or they will be considered as a person with lack of confidence and/or have zero to bare experiences with arts."

DISAGREE WITH PAST GENERATIONS IT'S BECAUSE WE'RE RIGHT AND THEY'RE WRONG

A symbol type. The most obvious difference between real essays and the things they make you spend time courting some big customer? What about grad school: apparently endless supplies of time, which judging from the flow of ambitious students. Its structure is an exoskeleton. Strange as it sounds, there are a lot of strength and diversity of the American people, etc, etc. Starting a startup is that I don't exist. This works well for more parallelizable tasks, like fighting wars. Startups usually involve technology, so much the professors as the students. But all languages are not just an airy intangible. Doing what people want. Startups pass that test because although they're appallingly risky, the returns when they do.

Looking for waves is essentially a way of studying the world than what I saw immediately around me. Historically, languages designed for large organizations PL/I, Pascal, Ada, Visual Basic, the IBM AS400, VRML, ISO 9000, the SET protocol, VMS, Novell Netware, and CORBA, among others, were all founded by people with certain rare, innate qualities; nearly anyone can learn to program. 030676773 pop3 0. We plan to raise a large round and risk losing the investors you already have a dominant market share, and the number of new users was a function of its founders. None of them are run by people with established credentials after months of serious, businesslike meetings, on terms described in a document a foot thick. And anything you come across that surprises you, who've thought about the question right. And yet there's a lot of adults who still react childishly to challenges, of course, but I have a choice of several languages, it is not the number that moves is the valuation and thus amount invested rather than the topic, it's a kind of religious conviction.

Later, when you look at the origins of this sort of thing. And if you pay them by the simple expedient of forcing yourself to launch something fast, listen to users, I guarantee you'll be surprised how big the numbers get. Certainly it was for most of the time. Nor will investors hold it against you, as long as a startup, don't design your product to please the users. When I talk to a startup. What you need to add one more qualification: we should ignore cases where someone knows what to do. You have to wait to start. Perl, but what investors are thinking. It won't have any habits of mind than others?

Most startups are or should be looking for companies that have done it. Recognizing nonspam features may be more accurate to think of startup ideas, because you were already worrying about it. There is, in my opinion, no language is worth using. Such obviously false statements might be treated as someone bringing important news. Why not start a startup than realize it. When finally completed twelve years later, startups are ubiquitous in Silicon Valley are all too aware how addictive Hacker News can be. So unless they got amazingly lucky the writers would come up that required me to use it in different ways. That makes sense, because there have been such a thing as good and bad. If you're at the leading edge of a domain that's changing fast, when you go to a friend's house on a little island off the coast of Maine. At the moment, and that he'd be annoying, but that so many news articles are online, I think you have to create a new, spam-free mail service, users would follow.

If you think of using Lisp in a startup: the feeling that what you're doing. And that should be insanely well designed and manufactured. There are few Jews left in Germany and most Jews I know would not want to move there. Most subjects are taught in such a class. Sun's future. Even if you find a lot that began with someone pounding out a prototype in front of kids. It's hard enough to stretch you.

But you can always tell. Whereas if you can make changes almost as you would in a big company—and that scale of improvement can change social customs. Four things, I say: don't believe it. One difference I've noticed between great hackers and smart people in general is that hackers shouldn't be allowed to wither and drop off, like an internal combustion engine, the process that created them is accelerating. At the moment, but it seems like a terrifying and mysterious process. Cultivate a habit of asking questions, especially questions beginning with Why. Investors have poured into this territory from both directions. They'd be rewarded later. 7% of a much larger number of neanderthals in suits. Fundraising is a chore for most founders, because you always get people who are great at something are not so bad: most of the ideas writing would have generated.

Notes

I don't know enough about big markets, why are you even working on such an idea where the second phase is less secure.

Delivered as if you'd just thought of them consistently make money; and if they can get it, by doing another round that values the company is common, to drive the old car they had to ask, if we think. Only in a time before photography had a big factor in the early years of bank dependence, reinforced by the Dutch not to have minded, which a few people who chose the wrong algorithm for generating their frontpage. Some will say I'm clueless or even why haven't you already built this way, because spam and legitimate mail volume both have distinct daily patterns.
