#i probably won't be timely with answering them at alllll

[marshmallowgoop]

I don't know if you're still taking prompts, but if you are may I request a Satsuki and Ryuko fic (sisters bond) in show, except that in this au Ryuko was adopted by the Mankanshokus when she was a child.

If asked, Satsuki Kiryuinwould deny, quite quickly, quite calmly, that she’s keeping an eye on herlittle sister.

“Matoi is more than capable oftaking care of herself,” she would say to any such accusations, without even amoment’s hesitation, and surely, certainly, she would believe her words. Thereis, she knows, little in the universe that could bring her baby sister down.

But maybe Satsuki can’t help theknot of worry building deep inside her, even as the sun droops down low andSoroi’s tea grows cold and Matoi shows no sign of strain. How could she help it, really, Satsukijustifies to herself, when it had only been mere hours since this girl beforeher had been drenched in her own blood and had ripped away her unbearable burden and Satsuki had to imagine scenario afterscenario of all her efforts being for naught and her sister falling to theground and suffering and screaming andchoking out her last breath as she herself stood useless and powerless even aftereverything she’d fought for and everything she’d done and—

Okay, so maybe Satsuki looks Matoi’sway just a bit. Just a bit. You can’tblame her.  

But Matoi, Satsuki sees, seemsperfectly fine, even for all that had happened. The girl’s smiles are wide, herlaughter genuine. She plucks croquettes from her plate and eats with the kind of vigor that any growing teenager should have. No matter Satsuki’s own mistakes andall she had done wrong, the sight before her tells her, wordlessly, that Matoiis happy.

The knot deep inside loosens. NowSatsuki can’t help her own smiling, or the strange, bubbling warmth that buildsand builds, and bashfully, uncertainly, she lets the feelings stay. They’rebeautiful, she thinks. They’re incomprehensible. They’re not distractions. They’restrength. If Matoi had taught her anything, it’s that.

But no matter the happypicture before her, Satsuki still knows that it’s not exactly a surprise whenMatoi’s big, eager grins fall into something more subdued, something tired, asthough the day’s events finally catch up to her and she finally feels theexhaustion of everything that had occurred. Matoi stretches her arms over herhead, a plate half-filled with croquettes still in her lap, and says, with ayawn and a groan, “I’ll be back in a bit.”

Matoi stands, yawning still,and it seems for a moment that she’s going to explain where she’ll be wanderingoff to on this ship, but Mankanshoku doesn’t let her, rushing to her own feetwith a knowing grin.

“I got it, Ryuko!” she cries. “Afterbeing apart for so long, you need to spend some alone time with Senketsu!”

Even in the darkness thatsurrounds them, Satsuki doesn’t miss the bright-red blush that comes overMatoi’s cheeks. “Um…” Matoi says, awkwardly, a crooked smile on her face, “Ithink you’re misunderstanding…”

Mankanshoku shakes her head,offering Matoi a wink as she piles croquettes from her own plate onto Matoi’s. “Takethese, though!” Mankanshoku says. “You need to build up your strength! Huah,huah!” Mankanshoku punches the air, scowling, as though attacking an invisibleenemy. “Got it?!”

Matoi softens. She looks downto the croquettes Mankanshoku had given her, smiling a timid smile, and thenshe says, quietly, instinctively, automatically, “Thanks, Sis.”

And Satsuki can’t help it. Shestiffens at the word, her grip on her own plate of croquettes tightening justas much as the knot deep inside does. She turns her eyes away, but she’s notfast enough, catching a bashful, embarrassed look come across Matoi’s facebefore she lets her attention fall completely to the half-dozen croquettesstill littering her own plate.

“So, uh, see ya,” Matoi says. Shewalks away, and Satsuki sighs. The croquettes that once seemed so delicious nowseem to taunt her, and she can’t say that she feels all that hungry anymore,either.

But Mankanshoku won’t let herdrown in self-pity. The girl plops down next to Satsuki quicker than Satsuki wouldhave even thought possible, piling croquettes off her plate and onto Satsuki’snow.

“You know,” Mankanshoku says,without giving Satsuki the time to react or respond, “the best part abouteating croquettes is eating them with family!”

As though to demonstrate,Mankanshoku takes one of the many croquettes she somehow still has left andstuffs it in her mouth, mmm-ing and ahh-ing as she chews. 

“See!” Mankanshoku says,her mouth still half-full. “These croquettes wouldn’t be nearly as good if I were alone!”

Satsuki manages to smileagain, just a little. “I’m sure you and Matoi have shared many good memoriestogether, eating croquettes,” she says. She ignores how the knot insidetightens at her own words.

Mankanshoku doesn’t make anynote of Satsuki’s discomfort, either. She stuffs three croquettes into hermouth at once, nodding her head as she chews and swallows, looking quite deepin thought, and with nothing more to say herself, Satsuki takes to poking at herown croquettes with her chopsticks, watching blankly as the greasy meat balls rolland flip over.

Like a child! Satsuki thinks,and she curses her ridiculous feelings. She doesn’t have time to waste mopinglike this, and yet—

“Mm-hmm!” Mankanshoku burstsout. She jumps to her feet once more, and Satsuki wonders for a moment if allthe croquettes she has piled high will fall to the ship’s deck.

But they don’t, simply shudderingwith Mankanshoku’s quick steps, and the girl holds a hand out to Satsuki,smiling wide.

“Won’t you come walk with mefor a bit, Lady Satsuki?” she asks.

Satsuki takes a look around. Jakuzurelooks to be arguing with Mankanshoku’s younger brother, Mrs. Mankanshoku can’tstop piling croquettes onto Gamagoori’s plate, Sanageyama seems preoccupied inegging them on, Soroi is fixing more tea…

“All right,” says Satsuki,sure that she is unneeded here for the moment. She stands herself, stillholding her plate full of croquettes that she’s hardly convinced she’ll be ableto eat. Mankanshoku beams.

The two walk along the ship,taking care to note the rhythm of the sea. Where they’re going Satsuki hasn’tthe slightest clue, but the destination seems of little importance toMankanshoku, and Satsuki can’t say she minds the distraction. Mankanshoku skipsalong and eats croquettes as they go, talking with her mouth full the wholeway.

“You know, Lady Satsuki,” shesays, as the stars begin to glimmer in the sky, and after relaying quite theincomprehensible tale about her favorite pajamas, “the first time Ryuko atecroquettes, Mom thought there was something terribly, horribly wrong with them!Ryuko just started bawling at the table after she put them in her mouth! Likethey were poison!”

Mankanshoku swallows, only tostuff another croquette into her mouth. “But there wasn’t a problem at all!”she goes on. “Ryuko just thought they were so good that she couldn’t help buttear up and cry!”

Mankanshoku swallows again,just as loudly and unseemly as she had been doing all evening. Satsuki managesanother smile, sort of. “Is-is that so?” she asks.

“Yup!” says Mankanshoku. “Ryukowas so itty bitty that I don’t know if she remembers it, but I do!”

Mankanshoku has sped up, andso Satsuki quickens her own steps as well. “I see,” Satsuki says, unsure,because there’s a part of her, deep inside, that can’t help but wonder why inthe world she’s devoting so much time and energy to such meaningless, frivolousconcerns, and why it is she walks alongside Mankanshoku at all, and why shewould ever think she has the time for any of this when the fate of the world isstill in her hands, as it always has been.

But the greater part of her istwisting the knot tighter and tighter inside, and that greater part is saying,loudly, that today, tonight, there is nothing more meaningful than hearing of her little sister’s life without her.

The knot only tightens furtherat the thought.

“All right!” criesMankanshoku. She stops quite suddenly, popping the last of her croquettesinto her mouth. Satsuki very nearly knocks into her, but manages to stillherself right before her own plate of croquettes topples onto the sleeve ofMako’s sailor uniform.

If Mankanshoku notices thenear-collision, she certainly doesn’t seem to mind. She turns to face Satsukistraight on, her eyes alight with excitement. “Anyway, Lady Satsuki,” she says,so bubbly that it seems she’s holding back laughter, “sisters should sharecroquettes together, don’t you think?”

Unfortunately for Satsuki, sheis not allowed the time to respond. Mankanshoku places her hands on Satsuki’sback and gives her a great push forward that surprises even Satsuki, and Satsuki quickly findsherself stumbling towards the sea, a few croquettes tumbling off her plate andonto the deck with gentle thuds thatare just loud enough to draw theattention of the girl who sits right before her, at the edge of the Sol, herlegs dangling down towards the water, an empty plate of croquettes beside her.

Satsuki swallows hard as sherealizes that Mankanshoku had deliberately led her right to where Matoi went. She feels her face burn red as Matoistares her way.

“I,” Satsuki starts, in amanner that is most undignified. “Iwas simply wondering if I might join the two of you.”

Satsuki holds up her plate. “Ibrought you some more croquettes,” she adds, as though they were truly the reason she stands there. Satsuki sighs infrustration when she steals a look behind her and notices that any last traceof Mankanshoku is long gone.

Matoi frowns, looking down—toSenketsu, surely, Satsuki knows—before nodding her head. “Sure,” she says, andher own face burns a bit pink as she stutters, adding, “S-S-Si-Satsuki.”

Somehow, Satsuki manages tosmile at that, as she sits beside her sister on the deck, her own legs hangingdown towards the water. The knot inside twists and twists tighter.

“It’s okay,” she says, thoughshe knows that with the way she says it, it certainly doesn’t sound okay at all. “You don’t have toforce a sisterly bond with me, not for my sake.” Her smile only widens. Hergaze falls to the sea.

“After all,” she says. “Youalready have an older sister.”

Satsuki can’t say she knewwhat she expected in response to such a statement, but it certainly wasn’t alaugh and a shake of Matoi’s head. But that’s exactly what Matoi does, and toSatsuki, it could almost be a month ago again, in the burnt remains of Osaka,their weapons pressed up against each other’s throats. 

“Hmph,” Matoi says after amoment, sounding disgusted, disappointed. “Still acting so high and mighty,even with your own little sister?” She pauses a moment, looking to Satsuki’scroquettes, and then right into her eyes. “Who says I’m doing any of this for you?”

Satsuki does not know what tosay to that, and so Matoi continues, “How much of my story do you know, huh,Satsuki Kiryuin? Did that computer-geek Inumuta give ya all the dirt on mylife, huh? Did you look into every last, little detail you could about me soyou could better use me as your precious little asset? As your weapon?”

“Ryuko…” Satsuki thinks shehears in response to Matoi’s words, but the voice is fuzzy and hard to make out, and shefigures it must just be her imagination, or tiredness.

She shakes her head, lookingtowards her sister—

“I don’t want to hear it,Senketsu!” Matoi snaps. “This is between me ‘n Satsuki.”

Matoi returns Satsuki’s gaze. “So?”she asks.

Satsuki sighs, long and deep. “Ididn’t know much, Matoi,” she says, truthfully.

“Well,” says Matoi, “did yaknow that my dad dumped me ‘n Senketsu off at Mako’s house when I was five,huh? Did you know that he said it’d just be a little while, and that he’d beback for me in a week? Did ya know that he nevercame back, even though he damn well could have, but his fucking research always mattered to him morethan me, and I never heard from that shit sack again until the day he fuckingdied?”

Matoi turns away. Satsukifeels her mouth go very dry. “No,” Satsuki says. “I didn’t know any of that,Matoi.”

But Matoi is not finished. Shespeaks louder now, her words coming faster and faster. “Did ya have any idea,”she asks now, “what it felt like, to grow up in a place you knew you didn’tbelong? Did ya ever think about what fucking hell it was to hear your mom and dad arguin’ about what to do withyou, while you kept tryin’ and tryin’ to find your real dad and kept comin’ up with jack shit?”

Satsuki is quiet, and for amoment, Ryuko is, too.

Then, much more restrained thanbefore, she says, “It was never a walk in the freaking park, Kiryuin. I knewthat Mako’s family wasn’t mine. Iknew she wasn’t really my sister. Iknew I had no right to call her Sis.”

A bitter smile comes overRyuko’s face. “But the lot of them… they always tried so hard to make mefeel like I belonged. Like I really could be part of a normal family like that, even though I knew damn well that my real family was fucked up.” She shakesher head, drawing her arms around herself.

“And now…” Ryuko says, “well,it’s even more—I’m even more—fucked upthan I coulda ever guessed.”

Ryuko looks Satsuki right inthe eyes once more, her gaze just as piercing and passionate as it was the daythey first met.

“So fuck you, Satsuki Kiryuin!” Ryuko says—shouts, screams. “Fuck you if you think I don’t care about finally having someone else who understands where the fuck I’m comin’ from.”

Silence falls between them,the air thick with the intensity of Ryuko’s words.  

“Who’s just as fucked up asyou, isn’t that right?” Satsuki manages to say, quietly, after a moment.

Ryuko laughs, turning awayfrom her sister. “I s’pose so. Two fucked-up-as-shit sisters, right here.”

“I didn’t know you felt thisway, Ryuko,” Satsuki says.

Ryuko flashes a cocky grin. “There’sa lot you don’t know about me.”

“You’re right,” says Satsuki,and she pushes her plate of croquettes closer to her sister. “But I hope you’lllet me learn more.”

And right before Satsuki,Ryuko’s cocky smile shifts into something almost soft, her eyes wide with whatSatsuki can only think of as hope.

Ryuko pokes her own chopsticks into the offered croquettes.

“Of course,” she says, taking a bite.

Hello my dear! Can I just say GAH DAMN I LOVE YOUR WRITING!!! I love your style and the way you write the characters makes them feel alive???? Idk how to explain it but I always love reading whatever you write!

I was just wondering if I could ask for a lil scenario? Like “Season 2 characters in a horror slasher movie”. Like who would be what stereotype (the jock, the popular girl, the nerd, the goth, the bully, the rich kid, the basketcase, etc.) who would be the killer(s)? Who would be the final girl (the classic slasher movie trope) I personally think it’d be MC but I’m just biased 🤡✌️. Who would trust/team up with who? Who would die? Who would be in a relationship with who?

I just thought it would be interesting and fun to see your take on this! Thank you so much for your time!!! 🥺💖

YOU CAN'T JUST COME IN HERE WITH ALL THIS LOVE AND NOT TAKE SOME (ALLLLL) BACK!! ✋😭 please, this is just so lovely, and absolutely wholesome so i appreciate it so much!!

OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS! i have to answer this right away, there's no other alternative, cause horror movies (particularly the bad ones) are my favorite so i'm truly into this!

let's insert the og girls and boys in a CLASSIC slasher movie scenario because there are many archetypes i enjoy making fun of, then some of the casa people, cause you know damn well who blake is gonna be, it's not a huge mystery... lol

((future ravena here. i went waaaaaaaaaaay deep into this, but i had so much fun, so thank you so much for sending this ask!!))

mc - yes, she's always the main character. the sidney of our 'scream' that will tear up when finding out one of her friends is a monster, and be looking around so disheartened and lost. her tears glisten like diamonds and she's so pure and can't do no wrong, until she has to fuck someone up, suddenly her 100 pounds body can carry a fucking gary size person and manage to run with them on her shoulder. and that's on *horror movie magic*

hope - the leader, the smart kid that will come to the conclusion they're about to die but had to step out for a second, only to come back on the last minute and save mc and herself, being the "other one that survived". their picture is some of sort of monument in the school now. also, she's probably in love with the main boy that is in love with mc but didn't say anything because "mc is my best friend and well..." delicately looks wistfully at the boy. "she deserves to be happy. she deserves the best." even though mc is clueless about the boy's feelings but i digress. she'll probably eliminate the killer at some point.

lottie - the one that will drag the stupid one to bang in the middle of the forest, and she'll fight for her life BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT STICK WON'T KILL THE UNKILLABLE. she'll also trip on her heel because she insisted that spot was a dump but was still in the mood of banging with a possibility of getting ticks and for that, she's gone! her makeup looks immaculate though, even with sweat all over, dirt that comes from the ground won't smudge that lipstick, my child!

hannah "i'm the one that sees herself as the quirky relatable girl even though my parents have more money the can count and no one, absolutely no one, really likes me for me, only for the MANSION i have in the middle of the woods and the possibility of using it from time to time so in true reality i'm just a sucker" nerdy girl. won't survive long enough and she'll be making remarks about a classic like 'romeo and juliet' and the public can't stand her. she's gonna die on one of the group's traps, BET. JUST REALLY BET!!

marisol - the logical thinker that will think everything wrong. I'M SORRY, BUT COME ON!! she'll be making calculations and guesses on who the slasher is and get it wrong every time, just like most of us because she does make a compelling case! she's also the *obligatory* bisexual that guys in school often ask to be on a threesome and she calls them troclodytes or something. not wrong, just... REALLY OVERUSED.

priya - the HOT GIRL that everyone wants and somehow doesn't get around because she's also in love with mc. enough to make CLEAR SAPPHIC COMMENTS THAT OUR DUMB MC DOESN'T CATCH ON and leaves every boy jealous at the same time. she's the roomate that dreams of pegging mc in their dorm but can't seem to shake that crush/love because... reasons. her screen time is not long but she'll be caught in a kiss with marisol and they'll both die because of their *horniness*. it's ALWAYS because of their horniness.

noah - HE'S THE MAIN BOY, DON'T AT ME. "he's so quiet, and i always wondered what was going on inside his head because..." the mc sighs and chuckles embarrassingly while doing a voice over as he *dreamily walks by her and smiles toothless smile "... he would never let it out through his mouth. i was always left to wonder...". he's absolutely the kind of guy that would offer his own life for mc because *he's been secretly in love with her* even though every single person in the movie and out of it knew it, so it's not a huge revelation.

gary - this is the jock. the second variation of it. the one that will find an exit and not go to shit right away. this one "is different because despite being so popular i would often see him around campus carrying books." said the mc, in a dreamy voice. this is the boy that finds the way out but doesn't escape the slasher and trades his life to save his friends (and by 'friends' i mean the people he's in the cabin for the weekend because that bond is now indestructible for some reason!) but he's shit now. stupidly didn't use the other door even though IT WAS RIGHT THERE and he could've walked out just fine, but noooooooooo!!!

bobby - the 'class clown that never gets laid', but when does, he's a goner. he'll die before he can spell "moan" and i quite frankly won't miss him in this scenario. he's a bit dumb and will take TOO LONG to figure out the noise coming from the bushes is not a prankster trying to stop his action, and he should stop humping the girl and run! they won't because his boner is bigger than his brain and i won't miss him. none of us will.

ibrahim - this boy is also in love with the mc, but you know right away that despite everything he does to catch her eyes, nothing works. that's because the "main boy" role is taken. he's best friends with him though, and the one to say "RUN, MAN, RUN!" he grabs his friend's shirt to look him in the eyes and say "please... save her." like... he could run just fine, but someone had to die and mc didn't really wanna bone him because he's *a friend*, so he'll be left to perish.

lucas - he might be the infiltrated killer man, just sayin'! he doesn't have patience for much shit and has a *traumatic past* that will turn him into the "i lost my entire life because of these people, and now?! now i get to have everything back, mc... everything..." he circles her a few times, probably has her tied up in ropes, looking at his weapon of choice as if it was the *most interesting object he's ever seen* and bam, stoner comes in through the window just in time to realize his *posh boy best friend* is the bad guy.

henrik - THE STONER. do i have to explain even further? no, right? he's also a little funny but he's definitely the stoner! he's crying when he realizes his friend is the killer and keeps saying stuff like "am i dreaming all this??" he was also pegged by mc at some point and has a *undying crush* on her, therefore he needs to die too. it's a shame because he's the public's favorite and will come up with a temporary solution to escape that will only save mc, hope and noah. he also has a final stoner catchphrase and you'll be thankful he's actually gone now because the phrase is so damn stupid!

blake - the cheerleader that everyone cheers when dies. i think when the artist drew her he thought "yes. she will, someday, feature a post on tumblr, by a fan of this game, and they WILL bring her to life as the bitchy cheerleader that deserves to die because she's 50 shades of terrible at any given moment." i can actually picture their satisfied smile too, because... blake was born for this. she's definitely shown under a different light because she decided to bang the class clown, but like, it's not redemption enough. the public is just happy she's gone! she's always making cruel remarks about the nerds, the stoners, she is the jock's girlfriend but has been cheating on him with class clown for a while. "i can't break up with him, bobby... i have a rEpUtAtiOn."

carl - the tech nerd that somehow knows programming, coding, how ancient elevators work, physics, chemistry, he builds bombs, weapons, harvesting tools and more, AS IF ANY OF THOSE WERE RELATED and somehow saves the main boy and girl long enough to be caught in a trap of some sort. he's also very much in deep love with mc and has a tendency of *hiding his feelings through snare comments* directed to main boy. "he doesn't even know how deadly the combination of chlorine and sodium sulfate can be." ah, the combination of chlorine and sodium sulfate, the true way to a girl's heart... anyway, he dies, right after providing them with shelter that he managed to build with his bare hands in a 10 second montage. he'll also say, choking on his own bodily fluids "i never thought you were good for her... save her... prove me wrong." AND BAM, DEAD.

kassam - he's the guy lottie drags to the forest to bone, and no one really knows him well, or even cares. he's just there and will have one (1) moment of enlightenment of his character but in reality he's just there to be friends with the jock and make fun of the stoner. definitely the goth kid that is introverted and went on this trip because he needed some time off. probably will die before an orgasm too, which is... his destiny.

hannah "i figured you all hated me so i decided to fake my death only to make you pay for what you've said/done because i was just an innocent child that read books and tried her best to be friends with you, only to be shut down in every opportunity, so now? now the outside thinks i'm dead and lucas is to blame for. don't worry, our favorite rich boy is gone too... and i'm surprisingly strong for my size and will fuck you all up because *revenge* and *rancorous feelings* and *plot* and run, mc, run..." her dialogue will continue even though it's quite clear mc can't hear shit, but somehow, midst adrenaline and running, and the fact that homeboy noah could take her down, she has an axe so they must run. "run, mc... run from your past... from the bad decisions, from the girl that only thought you were a good friend but you were also just as unfair as the others!" she has a bat, big knife, saw, who cares at this point? it's huge and clearly too heavy for her 90 pounds body to carry but it doesn't matter, because she's not hannah anymore. "i'm now reborn from my pain, and will make you pay..." she finds a short cut and meets them in the front of the forest, close to the highway, walking slowly enough to make you think "how the fuck did this stick figure got there so fucking quickly" only to say "boo" and shoot her shot.

THIS IS WHERE HOPE COMES IN WITH AN EVEN BIGGER WEAPON, and you're left wondering "was she there all along? was she listening in waiting for the perfect opportunity to jump in? is she pretending to be friends with mc only to eliminate them as well? i don't know who i can trust anymore." but she just hits hannah's head well enough to earn them *some time* to run, only to be caught by a police officer that finds them sprinting towards the highway.

he searches the woods for the girl, but can't find her. "she won't be able to survive these woods. there's going to be a cop car in every entrance, waiting for her" as he offers mc the usual blanket and a plastic cup of water.

hope, noah and mc are now going home.

a year later mc is moving in with noah because that traumatic experience led her to realize she was in love with him all along, and hope is tagging along because "i can't live without my best friend."

the mailman comes to the door as she carries the *smallest* package you've ever seen as if it takes so much effort, and then hands her a letter.

"dear mc, i hope this letter finds you in good health. good enough to last until the next time we meet."

the screen closes in, enough for you to see her *perfect flawless skin* and eyes somehow watering so much despite her mascara not running, and then bam! a scream comes from inside the house and the credits roll with a good charlotte, my chemical romance, sum 41 or blink 182 song from the mid 2000's.

[tractorbeamofwoe]

Since we just entered the last week without any CatB news, let's all answer some questions as a quick game:

1. How are you preparing yourself to see them on stage after so long?

2. If it's right that they're gonna put an almost 2 hours long show, what are you expecting? Do you reckon they'll perform any new songs?

3. How long will Van's hair look?

4. Bets on their new album cover animal?

5. Picture yourself at the barrier in their concert. How are you looking?

6. I know the lineup is already perfect as many of us seems to love both Inhaler, Sam Fender and CatB, but would you add anyone else?

7. So then, to go to this concert you'll have to lose something, what's gonna be? It can be another artist concert you already have a ticket to, or your won't be able to see the next season to your favourite serie like in forever, or you won't see your team important match, or something else you are really wanting. Are you going then?

8. My very goodbye to you lot, if I am creative enough I'll come back next Sunday, the last one till we see the lads. Xx

Hey anon! It’s like 11/12 days until R&L and it can’t go any slowerrr. 1. I am nOT prepared at alllll 😭 my plan is to not go on my phone or at least not check social media the whole day so I don’t get any spoilers of the set. Then I can watch it blind on iPlayer haha. I feel like I nights cry but honestly I’ll just way too excited and hyped to even think about crying for a second.

2. Please two new songs would be nice but one song will do. Maybe an album announcement is a little too much to ask but wHO KNOWS it is Van McCann after all that man is full of surprises.

3. Same as it was in 2020 I’m calling it now. I can’t wait to experience a proper long hair Van era.

4. Omg I think I’ve rambled about this before but I’d love to see some sort of sea creature. I think some of the ones on my list are turtle, whale, dolphin, lobster, seahorse...endless possibilities lol. Or maybe it’ll be trash van or something lmfaooo

5. Disrespectfully 👀 no In all seriousness though, I could probably never get barrier for any concert because I overheat and get tired out too quickly. I’ll faint! 💀💀 despite that though of course I’d make an extra effort to look good in case bondy decides to look up from his pedalboard 😌

6. I’m waiting for the 7/7 uprising where we can have Catfish, Sam, Chintzy and Jango all playing the same festivals it’d be bonkers. PLUS a Symphonic Pictures reunion. I also really enjoy a good Blossoms set and unfortunately I don’t think they’re playing this year but hopefully next time 🤞🏻🤞🏻 There’s also a local band I love called The Native who just played Boardmasters and I’d love to see them get big 🥺

7. I would happily sacrifice...uhh...I don’t think there’s anything as important to me as this gig 😭

I’ll give up reading fics for two weeks or something idk 💀

8. YESSS and it’s bondy’s birthday. I can’t wait ❤️❤️
