I'm going to my friends to give Dark Crystal a third go. I feel like such a fake fan that I struggle to finish it 💀 I just can't figure out why. Maybe the main characters are a little unexciting? The visuals are fantastic though and I desperately want to make Fizzgig.

POV: this is what my life should’ve looked like but I was born 30 years too late (I made this for my future therapist to visually elaborate) (jk) (or am I)
#they WILL never understand 😩✋#I just wanted to be a tour manager#for heavy metal bands#but all while wearing hot 80s clothes#but also in an intimidating scary way if u catch my drift#like obviously in my fantasy I would have so not been sexualized but taken so serious#and if hetfield or mustaine just *randomly happened* to fall in eternal love w me that would’ve been the ✨cherry on top✨#I mean there WERE female tour managers in metal I read a whole ass article in a magazine from 1990#moodboard#80s aesthetic#dave mustaine#kirk hammett#james hetfield#steve vai#tawny kitaen#lana del rey aesthetic#axl rose#slash#guns n roses

Sometimes being in love is like getting your eye gored in a fit of purifying violence, sometimes it's not
#I keep talking about the romance of cannibalism so much my mother has gotten so so so tired of me (my friends are more mixed)#but also she got me to watch The Hunger (1983) which was very fun and very 80s#its about consuming and being consumed!!!!!!!!!!! Eating your loved one because you cannot stand them existing outside of yourself!!!!!!!!!#being eaten because you cannot stand existing outside of your lover!!! Becoming obsessed with literally merging together in the goriest way#basically I cannot stop thinking about Hannibal (2013)#I couldn't figure out how to get Tz's horn to fit with the way I placed their heads and then I realized wough........it would be going righ#in Vris's eye if I keep their heads where they were so I just leaned in bc themes......motifs..........symbolism................#blinding and being blinded is so central to their narrative ya know#anyway. this is an unhinged amount of tags I hope you had fun reading all of them#vriska serket#terezi pyrope#vrisrezi#homestuck#hs#my art#fantasy blood#religious imagery

Fall Out Boy has a little less than a month now with a break in which they could literally go film a 4th MV for sm(f)s. If you even care.
#Personally i'd love either 'this has been in the works for a while conceptual followup to the 80s dark fantasy theme'#or 'technically super simple video of the 4 of them just fucking around'#I just want a 4th mv and with all 4 of them really#Not even picky about the song though fake out is my beloved and i think wattba would be a fun one

I genuinely, unironically love Hawk the Slayer. More folks should watch it, and then we can all gather round the fire and talk about the awesome soundtrack and how it sounds a little bit like Jeff Wayne at times, Jack Palance all but literally chewing the scenery, if any of us had played 80s British Character Bingo and what names we ticked off, speculating on whether they had a discount on the fog machine because there's fog in nearly every single scene (even inside the abbey towards the end!), and so on.

it starts the same way every time. I’m in a place I don’t know — I rarely know where I am but at the same time I do because I’m apart of it all or the person or a witness, like a fly is a witness. It’s a city I’ve never been to I think it might be in the States because the roads are so big. It’s different in Europe, more walkable. It’s one of the things I look for to find where I am. I know something bad is going to happen even the actual subject knows it. It’s like we’re in on the same sick joke. We both know and there’s nothing either of us can do because we’re just players in a script and it’s what’s going to happen. It starts the same way every time. I’m in a city I don’t know and I’m watching this person like it’s a game - like I’m the camera over their shoulder. Something bad is going to happen we both know it so they walk and I follow. I can’t do anything but follow and wait and wait and wait knowing something is going to happen and it’s like with every step the thing comes closer and closer like if they just stood in one place for the rest of their life they’d be safe but they can’t do that it’s impossible to they keep walking and i follow and the thing gets closer and before it can get to them it gets to ME and it’s BREATHING ON MY NECK LIKE I’M REALLY THERE TOO AND I KNOW SOMETHING BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN—

arthur would learn the dance to HOT TO GO! by chappell roan and i won’t be taking questions about it at this time.
#i feel like it’s now widely accepted that arthur is an 80s music guy and chappell has those vibes okay#not to mention he is The lesbian protector and supporter#he would also love pink pony club#WAIT zoe walking in on him dramatically performing casual and being like . what is going on here#(the kids are not in the house)#let me have my little fantasy#the house in the cerulean sea#arthur parnassus

ppl are soooo funny for thinking ffx-2 last mission is intended to be as good as a mainline final fantasy game. it's a minigame?? just like 70% of the original game was?? i thought you were a real fan who had tolerance for such silly goofy stupidity??
#wheres your fucking whimsy#don't let the 80 levels and cutscenes fool you ok it's a minigame#the ppl who made ffx-2 said ohhh my god i love these girls sooo much i have to make more game for them#how about uhhhh *throws dart* turn-based uhhhh *throws dart* roguelike uhhhhhhhhhhh *throws dart* inventory management#and you know what? good for them#text#nova shh#final fantasy#lulu tag#gaming
