The fact that all the reviews that popped up when I searched "I Saw The TV Glow" on YouTube are cis white men with cynical/puzzled 🤔 expressions tells you everything you need to know about the movie.
As Emma Stone would say, "It's not for you! Everything is for you, let them have this one thing!"

Look Under (Stalker!Ticci Toby x F!Reader) NSFW
HEAVILY inspired by @rabbit-or-rib this idea basically came from them I just wanted to write like a detailed story about it :')
Porn without/minimal plot, reader is female, Toby is a stalker & and hides under ur bed most nights,, yeah pretty sad
Oh shit. What the hell were you doing?
Toby's eyes widened when he heard soft noises up above, most surely from you. He wished he had some goddamned x-ray vision or something like that so he could see through the stupid bedframe above him. His eyes were practically burning holes through the wood already.
He knew hiding under your bed was a good idea. Anyone who doubted him could go fuck themselves, because now he was proven right. At first, it was to protect you, make sure you were kept safe, but now... God, please let this be what he thinks it is.
As if answering his prayers, the first hint he got was a shuddering breath. You had to be touching yourself. On cue, his jeans felt much tighter then they were before.
You let out another soft whimper, and a ginormous grin spread on his face. Oh my god. It's true. This giddy feeling spread through his entire body, mixed with disbelief to make a strange concotion of arousal and excitement. He couldn't believe it.
You were trying to be quiet, biting your bottom lip to muffle the sounds that tried to slip out. It was just really hard to though, especially with how you were rubbing circles on your clit, making shivers run up your spine.
Toby would rather die than miss up on an opportunity like this. Slowly, he unzipped his jeans, careful not to make any noise. He didn't waste a second pulling his half-hard dick out. A gasp above, and he knew you had slid your fingers in. The wet sound of your insides molding around your fingers was like sweet music to him. He quickly wrapped a hand around the base of his cock and began to stroke up. Already it felt so good, he had to bite his sleeve to prevent a shaky sigh from escaping him. He moved his other hand in time with your hand, so as to not make noise, but really, doing so also made him feel closer to you, more connected. In his heart he had already made the vow to finish with you.
You were going so slow, though. With each lethargic stroke he would go all the way up to his sensitive tip, wrap around it, and then slide all the way back down to the base. It was pretty much torture, but he purposefully made it harder for him to keep composure. He imagined slipping up, making too much noise. You figuring out he was there the whole time. But then inviting him, because you just couldn't resist. And you'll tell him how much of a pervert he is, how disgusting and deplorable and morally wrong he was.
"Mmmmm," he hummed at the thought, before immediately shutting up. Did you hear him? Please say no. His heartbeat quickened.
Thankfully, your moans covered him up. And that squelching sound made everytime you pushed your fingers in and out of your cunt.
His dick twitched in his hand; he was so unbelievably hard. But he didn't want to go faster because he was imagining thrusting into you, lining up his strokes with yours. He wished he had a pair of your underwear on him, so he could finish on them and make it a mess. That's what he usually does alone, anyways.
He could hear you getting close. You moaned louder, more unrestrained. It felt so good, especially when your fingers would rub against your clit everytime you pushed in. You were so so close.
"Fuck... oh fuck..." you whined, bucking your hips and riding into your fingers.
Toby grinned wider, the fabric of his sleeve still between his teeth. A euphoric feeling erupted in him and he felt so absolutely elated, like he could die right now and be perfectly fine with it. Actually, no, he'd be upset because then he wouldn't get to experience this.
"Oh god," you whimpered. "Please". You were about to climax, the coil in your stomach tightening to the absolute limit. You fingers went faster, plunging in quicker and hitting that one spot repeatedly.
The stalker continued, stroking himself now at a brutal pace, desperate to cum at the same time as you. Fuck, now it was starting to get good. And he wasnt going to last long, that's for sure.
You rubbed your cl*t at the same time as you curled your fingers, and you came hard, your cunt fluttering about you. A blissful, dirty feeling washed over you, making your eyes roll to the back of your head as you rode out your orgasm.
Shortly after you finished, Toby's slim fingers ruthlessly stroked faster, squeezing and circling around the painfully delicate tip, yearning so much to cum now. And honestly, it wasn't that hard, especially with the image of your cum sticky inbetween your fingers and your fucked out, panting face. With his teeth clenched so tight around the sleeve of his pullover he thought his jaw would crack, he finished, hips jerking up instinctively as he milked out all of his seed. It's warmth spilled and pooled over his shaky palm, milky white and thick. He allowed himself the tiniest of exhales through his nose, trying to breathe after such a hard orgasm. He laid there, motionless under your bed with his heart over the moon until you stepped off your bed on wobbly legs and stumbled to the bathroom. Only then did he bother to leave through the window, taking one spare glance at your ruined bedsheet before hopping out.

You are seriously such a talented writer! I was just wondering if I could request a hook x reader where he accidentally eats a love potion and falls in love with reader but like after the spell breaks it turns out he’s actually fallen for her?
Thank you so much sweetness ❤️ and absolutely it’s almost like an accidental Bal I love that
Side Effects
James Hook x Reader
Pronouns Used: she/her/hers
Summary: Someone should’ve warned him that one of the cups Uliana had given him held a little bit more than sprite and Malibu. Now it looks like he’s fallen victim to sugary side effects of a love potion.
Warnings: underage drinking, love potions are always a warning around here but especially right now because someone's drink is spiked with one, Hook is absolutely needy while under that spell and a little ooc but i promise it's due to the potion, flirty and sexual jokes but nothing that is truly nsfw (unless you count hook sleeping in his boxers ig), also a kiss scene that I didn't mean to make like that. so maybe a little spicier than I intended when I started on this idk
Word Count: 4.3K (idk how I did that either, inspired ig)
Tumblr media
    Villain parties were so much louder and longer than hero parties were. There was alcohol mixed with  the faint smell of smoke and the type of music she would never hear back in her friend group’s parties. If she was honest with you, (Y/n) was enjoying it, absolutely drinking up the atmosphere around her, despite the fact that she’d normally be asleep by now. Not that she even felt tired, the room was too lively to let her give way to the normal exhaustion that would plague her by this time. She realized suddenly that she was actually kind of thankful Maleficent had invited her, swearing it had been a joke until she got there and the villains looked nearly excited to see her. This was actually fun, she felt relaxed in a way she probably shouldn’t be, two drinks in and singing along to songs she didn’t even realize she knew. Maybe she doesn’t know the words, but she’s saying something. God only knows how she was hoping she could get an invitation next time they decide to do something wild like this. (Y/n) wanted to drink up this feeling every time the cup would be offered to her. 
    Speaking of cups being offered to her, her “party buddy” as he’d deemed himself was heading back to her, sliding a blue plastic cup into her waiting fingers. “Now if you ask me,” his voice is raised over the music, “Malibu is a cheap excuse for rum, but it seemed like it would be more your style than that last drink was.” She nods, taking a sip from the cup which was the third one he’d given her all night. In a normal world, she wouldn’t trust a drink handed to her by just anyone, but something about Hook made her feel like she could. Maybe it was just because she felt like she knew him, the boy had been her partner in Alchemy for the past two years running, sharing little jokes and passing notes. “Yeah?” She hums, tilting her head to the side slightly as if to nod as she reaches out to grab the second cup from the crook of his elbow, holding it steady so he could properly grab it. “Better than the last one?” She nods, taking another sip as she looks at him, “Sweeter. This one doesn’t burn.” “Good, seems like I found your drink of choice, yeah?” The girl nods letting her words come out on a giggle, “Don’t give me that first drink ever again, Hook. I’m serious.” He hums, raising his own cup to his lips to cover his playful smirk, “I’ll get you warmed up to a gentlemen’s rum eventually, Lass.” “Gentleman is a strong word for you, isn’t it Captain? And you’d get me running around with your crew on the daily before you’d have me drinking that for fun.” Despite the callous words there’s a genuine smile hanging on her lips as she watches the boy. She hadn’t realized spending time with him could be so fun, perhaps that was wrong of her. 
    When the pirate looked up from his drink he could tell something felt new. His eyes dancing across her face as if eating up the memory of her like that, so carefree at one of his parties. Tasting the wilder side of life. The blue and green lights making her skin glow, hair slightly mused from where she had been dancing with a rosy tint to her cheeks from the alcohol and teasing little smirk on her face as she stared at him. The smirk coupled with the gentlest look in her eyes. She’d always been stunning to him but right now she looked nearly mythical. The gods should be jealous of her beauty, he was absolutely positive of that. “Have I ever told you that I think you’re breathtaking, Lass?” She looks down, tongue poking out between her teeth as she smiles, “I don’t think you have, Hook, no.” He tucks the dull edge of his hook under her chin, tilting her head up, “Hey, let me see you. Don’t shy away from me.” He leans forward, placing a soft kiss to her right cheek before he whispers in her ear, “And I beg of you, call me James.” 
     The pirate before her was a flirt, (Y/n) was more than aware of that, and it made her hate the way butterflies erupted in her stomach at his touch. The feeling of his lips setting her on fire. “I bet that’s what you tell all your girls,” she teases, trying to sound confident as she shoves his shoulder gently. His hook wraps around her bicep, pulling her against him and her hand finds its way forward to absorb some of the shock of the collison. “What other girls love? As far as I’m concerned you’re the only one here.” She reaches up, smoothing a stray strand of his hair back into place as he takes another sip of his drink. “Is that so?” He nods, staring down at her glossed lips, “You have no idea how long I’ve been trying to see you outside of that old man’s watchful eye. I’m so glad you came tonight.” Her hand busies itself behind his back, toying with the boy’s collar as they stand there face to face, “I think you’ve had enough to drink, James. I never picked you to be a lightweight.” He hums, pressing another kiss to her shoulder, “The only thing I’m drunk on is you, love.”  
     Right hand reaching out to his, taking his cup and  she’s laughing, sliding it onto the table behind him, “Whatever you say, Captain. How about you let me take you home?” His ever present smirk turns into more of a genuine smile as he nods, letting the girl untangle herself from him. Normally he’d stay at a party until they had to shut it down, he’d never left this early. But he did feel off, maybe he was drunk? Had he made his drinks too strong to compensate for how light he was pouring hers without noticing? It didn’t matter, not when he was taking hold of her hand and she was letting him. Her thumb rubbing light circles on the back of his hand as she led him through the crowd. The cool air outside felt heavenly on his skin as the girl led him across the rocks of the black lagoon. Wind kissing his face that he didn’t even realize had started to sweat. “Hey, love?” She hums, pulling him slightly closer to her side as they make it to dry, stable land. “You know I meant it when I said you were breathtaking, don’t ya?” She shakes her head, “How long have you been holding onto that one, huh?” “Since last year, the second class project I think. God I should’ve told you how lovely you are sooner, I didn’t realize you’d let me hold your hand if I did.” It earns him a laugh, her hip knocking into his playfully, “Don’t make me take my hand back from you, Hook.” His grip tightens, a whine slipping out of his normally cocky lips, “You wouldn’t dare.” 
    “Wouldn’t I?” She hums, still drawing those light circles on his hand though. “I’ve gotta say, I’m kinda glad you’re a lightweight, James. You make a cute drunk.” He laughs, leaning his weight against her ever so slightly as they wander through the woods, “That sounds like you’re planning to take advantage of me. Not that I’d mind.” “Oh, I didn’t mean it like that,” she stutters over the words, free hand flying up to cover her mouth.”I just meant like, you’re being so sweet right now you know? I’m glad I get to take care of you for a little bit, I feel like every time I see you, you’re watching over me you know? I’m glad I get to return the favor for once.” “You are?” “I am.”
   The rest of their walk to his dorm is filled with light and playful conversation. She hated to admit it, she knew her friends would hate to hear her say it, but Hook was a genuinely nice guy to be around. And his calloused hand felt so nice in her softer one. She was nearly disappointed when they got back to the boy’s shared dorm, not wanting to let him go. “Give me your key, Hook.” He shakes his head, dark feathered hair moving around his pretty features in a way that made him almost look like he was moving in slow motion. “Hook come on, give me your keys. It’s time to go to bed.” He points the golden piece of metal at the end of his arm towards her, “That is not my name, not to you.” She laughs softly, taking his hook into her other hand so she can pull him closer, “James,” the name is drawn out and cooed, their faces meer inches apart, “Would you please give me your key so I can get you into bed?” He pouts, shaking his head again, “Can’t.” 
     “And why can’t you?” She never dreamed him to be this needy and stubborn, part of her almost found it precious. “If I give you my key then I have to let go of your hand and you’re going to leave me.” Her hand lets go of his hook, dipping into the pocket on his jacket instead, “I promise you, James, I’ll stay until you fall asleep. Now can I please,” her fingers wrap around his keys, pulling them out of his pocket. “Thief,” he mumbles, watching her turn away from him to unlock the door. “You’ll thank me in the morning when you wake up in your own bed and not the floor somewhere.” He leans against her, shaking his head, “I always find my way home when I’m drinking, Princess.”: “Not a princess, James,” she sighs, throwing the door open. “You’re my princess.” 
     She ignores the remark, instead letting her eyes travel around the room. (Y/n) is pretty sure that she’s never seen a dorm room look like it belonged to the people residing in it as much as this one did. Maroon and forest green covering the beds, black decor and golden tapestries hanging to the walls. An old torn flag that she was sure once took its home on the Jolly Roger was hanging over Hook’s bed, taking up nearly his whole wall. There wasn’t a gap of space in that room that didn’t scream the two boys’ names. Something about it was oddly comforting. “Nice room, Captain.” He smiles, watching her take it in. She looked nearly awestruck, the boy couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride in it. “Thank you, princess.” She rolls her eyes, headed over to the dresser on his side of the room, “Which drawer do you keep your pajamas in?” “Pajamas?” She turns to him, a single brow raised, “Yeah James, your pajamas. PJs? Sleep clothes?” He shakes his head, waving her off as he removes his coat, “Oh no, none of that. Just boxers and an undershirt. If I feel like leaving on the undershirt.” (Y/n) can feel the heat rising to her face as the pirate takes his boots off. Of course he didn’t wear pajamas.     “Okay, well then you get uh,” she swallows, turning around to face the wall again, “Comfortable. And I will face this way until you get in your bed.” James laughs, shaking his head as he shrugs off his silky button up, “I didn’t expect you to be so easily flustered.” “Yeah well, you just told me you basically sleep naked, so.” “It’s just a little bare chest and thigh, not like you’d get to see anything too frisky without wanting to.” “Just get in bed before I change my mind and leave you here alone, Hook.” He shuts his mouth, letting his belt and jeans fall to the ground before striding over to his bed. She can hear his blankets russel as he adjusts, sliding into the stiffly made double bed. “You can turn around now, love. Worst you’re going to see is my shoulders.” She rotates on her heel, slowly opening her eyes to look at him. 
    As promised, Hook is tucked into his bed, shoulders and head barely visible above the maroon comforter and white sheets. He watches her with a soft smile, waiting for her to move. “You said you’d stay with me. Do you need a shirt?” She shakes her head, making her way over to the side of his bed, toeing her shoes off as she goes. “I said I’d stay with you until you fell asleep. Not that I’d stay with you James, you need some rest.” She slides onto the bed beside him, legs stretched out along his side as her back leans against his headboard. James turns onto his side, an arm coming to stretch out over her thighs as he looks up at her, “Well, if you won’t stay the night with me, will you at least let me take you out tomorrow?” She holds her breath waiting for him to laugh at her or something. For him to give her any sort of sign that he’s teasing, or just trying to hurt her. But he doesn’t looking up to her with love struck and hopeful eyes that have her feeling a touch weak. “If you can remember asking me that in the morning, come find me to ask me again. Then I’ll say yes.” He nods, leaning his forehead against her leg as he gets comfortable, “I’ll remember.” She hums, letting her hand fall into the boy’s hair, “I’ll see you tomorrow then, James. Goodnight.” 
     (Y/n) isn’t sure how long she’s been by his side before the boy is softly snoring beside her, she does know the party has ended by the time he is though. Morgie le Fay slipping in visibly exhausted and ready to fall into his bed. The sight of the girl making him jump. “Hello, what are you doing here?” She slides out from under Hook’s arm, grabbing a spare pillow from behind him to take her place. “He was wasted, couldn’t let him just wander around like that,” She stretches the stiffness out of her muscles as she speaks, eyes glancing around to retrace her steps to her shoes. “Hook didn’t strike me as a needy drunk though, it’s kinda cute. He’s probably going to be hungover tomorrow, if y’all have tylenol or anything I recommend leaving some out before you go to sleep.” She slips her shoes on walking to the door, “Goodnight Morgie.” He nods to her, mumbling what he thinks is an audible goodnight as he turns to look at his friend. Needy drunk? Hook’s always been one to fight when he was drunk. The sorcerer couldn’t prove it but something was off about the interaction he just had. It would have to be something he’d figure out in the morning though, the boy too tired to worry now. As long as his friend was fine, which it seemed he was, that issue could wait. 
                           ˚⋆°˖ ~ 🍂࿔ ฅ୧ ‧₊˚ 🍂 ⋅
     Much to (Y/n)’s surprise, Hook did remember asking her out the night of the party. It was actually a sweet little date, just the two of them curled up in the corner of a cafe getting to know each other outside of what Alchemy and the party had allowed them. She didn’t think she’d find herself so excited to be on a date with James, he had a reputation of course, she didn’t want to get her hopes up. But then one date turned to two, and two turned to three. By the fifth date the pirate had asked her to be his girlfriend, something that she hadn’t expected but she accepted, albeit a touch too eagerly if you were to ask her. Not that he’d agree, if it wasn’t for Morgie’s voice in his ear he probably would have asked her on the first date. 
    Now it had been four months of whatever her and James got started on the night of that party and the whole school was hyper aware of the attachment the two had developed to each other. Not that Hook would let other people forget. He was seemingly always touching her, holding her hand or his hook looping through her belt loops with his arm around her side. Pressing needy little kisses on top of her head or softly on her cheek. She adored the attention but if she was honest something about it always felt wrong to her. Not that she didn’t deserve his affection, or didn’t want it. Goodness knew she craved him when he was away. More so like something about it was just, for lack of better words on her end, off. It was as if James never sobered up from that night’s party and she knew she wasn’t the only one who could see it. The boy's friends always felt like they were watching them, it nearly made her skin crawl. And the feeling was getting to be too much for her now, the girl squirming under their gaze from where she sat curled against Hook’s side. She should slip out now, it would be the right thing to do, wouldn’t it? 
     Her eyes flickered between the watchful eyes of Maleficent and Uliana before they flickered back up to her boyfriend. Softly tapping his cheek with her index finger so he’d look down at her. “Yes, love?” She smiles slightly, eyes staring at his ever adoring ones. Had they ever looked at her any other way? It was like she couldn’t remember. “I need to head out, I have a project for magical creatures that I need to go finish.” A frown pulls on his lips but he nods, pressing a soft kiss into her hairline before letting her get out of his grip. Eyes following the girl all the way to the door, drinking her in as if he’d never see her again, face settled into the palm of his hand. 
    “God, why are you still acting like that?” Uliana scoffs, glaring at the boy -who used to be her right hand man- in annoyance. “Acting like what, Uli?” He doesn’t peel his eyes from the door, as if she’d stumble back through it if he waited long enough, hoped hard enough. “Like you’re spelled,” she pauses, locking eyes with Maleficent as if they had both realized something dreadful had happened. “Oh my god,” Maleficent’s hand covers her mouth as she turns to look at her friend in shock. Had they done this? The girl was supposed to be the lovestruck zombie here, not Hook. “Oh you are spelled,” the pixie’s voice is littered with a hopeless regret, staring at her beloved friend in disappointment.     “I’m not spelled, Mali, I’m just in love. You of all people should get that, with the way you fall over Hades and all,” his tone is far too dreamy to fit him, the boy finally turning away from the door and back to his friends. “No, Hook, you’re spelled. Uli and I spelled you,” she sighs, shaking her head as she stares at the boy. His face seems to contort into an expression somewhere between confusion and anger, “What do you mean you spelled me?” “Well it wasn’t meant for you,” Uliana sighs, throwing her hands up, “It was meant for the girl. You handed her the wrong cup.” Morgie turns to the girls in shock, the night of the party finally adding up in his mind. Hook was an angry drunk, he knew his friend well enough to know that. The boy hadn’t been drunk at all, that’s why he wasn’t hung over. “You tried to spell (Y/n)? Why?” “We were trying to help him,” Uliana throws a hand out at Hook as she snaps, “He was too scared to ever admit he liked her to her and we were sick of hearing about it. She was supposed to fall in love with him so she would ask him out and he’d shut up.” 
     Hook rises off of his bed, glaring at Uliana with an emotion she couldn’t quite place dancing in his eyes. “So you decided to spell her?” He shoves the sea witch back, not rough enough to hurt her but it gets his point across. “You could have hurt her! What if there were side effects?” “But she would have loved you, is that not what you’d been whining about for a year?” “She wouldn’t have loved me! The magic in her would’ve tied her to me, she wouldn’t have loved me.” “Well she loves you now doesn’t she? So what does it matter?”
    He lets out an exaggerated sigh, turning on his heel to storm out of his dorm. Hook’s friends were calling for him from his room but he didn’t have in him to care. He had to find (Y/n), if their love was real -able to exist past the spell-she should be able to break it, shouldn’t she? They hadn’t kissed yet, the girl always shying away from his lips. Maybe some part of her could tell? Had Uliana told her? Surely not. If it didn’t work, if he felt the exact same after kissing her, he’d go take a dip in the enchanted fountain. That water could undo anything, then he would just have to potentially break the loveliest girl he’d ever met’s heart. Hook couldn’t help but hope she could end the whole thing, or maybe living his life spelled wouldn’t be that bad. Not if it meant he had her. 
    The pounding on (Y/n)’s door made her jump out of her skin. Who in their right mind would be banging on her door like that? Uliana maybe? Had she forgot something and James sent the sea witch to bring it to her? That didn’t seem right, he would always bring her things himself. So who in their right mind was on the other side of her door acting like a mad man?  She didn’t expect to see those familiar dark doe eyes and rich feathered locks behind her door. Her boyfriend looking panicked and a little angry as his eyes take her in. 
   “Don’t shy away,” he mumbles, grabbing the back of her head and threading his fingers through her hair. (Y/n) doesn’t get a second to question him before his lips are slamming into hers, kissing her hungrily like he needed her for survival. A movement so primal it was shocking. Yet she melts into him, hands sliding up his torso, one resting on his chest while the other needily cups his jaw, pulling him as close as she could. His lips were slightly chapped, feeling raw against her own soft ones but she couldn’t find it in her to care, fingers sliding further back on his head so she could softly pull at his hair. Hook groans against her lips slightly at the contact, biting her bottom one and tugging it back slightly as he pulls away. 
    He felt like something had been lifted off of him as he looked at her. She was still the most beautiful girl he’d ever seen, Hook was entirely sure of that, but it was like the fog around her had finally lifted. By god she’d done it. James didn’t even know it was possible to fall in love with someone while you were under a love spell. She pants slightly, looking up at him in shock, “What was that for?” “Oh, Love,” he breathes, moving his hand from the back of her head so he could stroke her cheek, “You just saved me from myself.” Her brows furrow, pursuing her lips as she waits on him to elaborate, no further words seem to come though. “James,” she laughs, though the sound comes out more nervous than she intended, “What are you talking about?” 
    “Uliana, she,” he shakes his head, nudging the girl back into her dorm so he can follow her in, letting the door slam behind him. “I guess it was the night of the party, she handed me one of those malibu sprites we had remember them?” She nods, waving with a hand for him to continue, it was odd, like he had finally sobered up. (Y/n) felt like she could breath around him again, hands lingering on him without feeling like they were doing something wrong. “Well apparently she put a love potion in one of them, she intended it for you but.” “But you drank it, that’s why you seemed like such a lightweight. That's why Maleficent invited me, isn’t it? They were trying to prank me.” The girl shakes her head, dusting off his shoulder. “So what now, do you want to like,” she sighs, looking down, “Do you want to like, break up now that you realized you were just spelled or?” He grabs her chin with his good hand, tilting her head up to look at him, “Do I need to kiss you again or are you going to use your brain?” She looks at him as if he’s grown two heads and he sighs. “Darling, what are the two ways to break a love potion’s hold? I know you pay attention in alchemy, you should know this.” She bites her lip, searching his deep dark eyes like they’re going to answer the question for her. 
     “What breaks a love spell, Love?” She knew this, “Water from the enchanted lake,” there's a pause. She knows the second one, she knows she does. “I haven’t been to the enchanted lake or the fountain. I came straight here from my dorm so what broke my spell?” Her lip finds its way between her teeth, chewing on it as she stares at the boy she’d grown to love oh so dearly. Love. “I did,” she breathes it, pulling the boy closer and connecting their lips again. It’s gentler this time, not as aggressive and needy as the kiss before, this one is full of nothing but love. His hands moving to cup his lover's face, pulling her as close as he could manage. That was his smart girl, she saved him.

Flickering Desieres
A fic collaboraton with @heavyhitterheaux
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Born and raised in Y/H/T, Y/N knew from a young age that she wanted to be a singer and that she wasn’t going to let anything get in her way of her dream becoming a reality. 
She would go on to perform in local bars and coffee shops that were known to have open-mic nights and spend the rest of her time writing her own songs and posting videos of her singing on Tik Tok. 
She posted a song that she had written called “Drowning in the Blue” on the platform, not thinking much of it. However, the song quickly gained traction and went viral, amassing over 230 million views. 
As the song gained popularity on Tik Tok, she quickly caught the attention of music label executives who were eager to sign her. 
After careful consideration, she chose the small independent label “Adagio Records Co.” And the rest was history.
Every single time an opportunity presented itself, she would sing. Whether it be around the house, performing for family, or local talent shows. When she saw an opportunity to sing, she took it.
Meanwhile, Jack had just finished filming his latest movie starring Matt Damon and Casey Affleck called “The Instigator” in Portland. Overall, Jack felt more inspired than ever to go back to the studio and create new music. The last thing that he ever wanted anyone to think is that he was leaving music behind for acting, because that definitely wasn’t the case.
“Look if it isn’t the movie star.” Urban said as Jack entered the recording studio.
“Hey man.”
They did their secret handshake as Jack sat down next to him.
“How was Portland?” Nemo asked.
“Wet.” 
They started laughing from Jack’s response and Nemo just simply shook his head. 
“The label got me this list of the possible female singers we could bring in for the feature” DJ Drama said as he sat down. 
“Shoot, let’s hear it.” 
“Doja Cat?”
Jack thought for a second. “No” 
“SZA?”
“No”
“Y/N?”
Jack pauses for a moment. 
“Who is Y/N? I’ve never heard of her. Is she a new artist?”
“Her song blew up when she posted it on Tik Tok not too long ago. Since you hardly ever go on there, I didn’t really expect you to know.”
As Jack quickly learned about Y/N’s music, he became captivated by her sound as a singer which was something unlike anything he had heard before. A sound that was both fresh and somehow nostalgic. With hints of 90’s R&B, soul, and smooth jazz; mixed with contemporary pop. He found her songwriting skills impressive and authentic. He was hooked. 
At this point in time, the choice was obvious and he couldn't wait to meet her in person.
He felt as though this would be a good move for him seeing as the most he ever did with another female artist was hop on the remix version of a song. However, this time they were starting from scratch and knew that this was something that his fans had been waiting for. New features with new people.
It was true that he was worried about the hype surrounding him and his career dying down, but knew for a fact that as soon as he made the announcement surrounding the single being released, it would pick back up. 
That morning, Y/N showed up early to the studio wearing a men’s button up shirt as a dress, knee socks and sneakers wanting to be comfortable for however long that she was going to be here for. 
“Y/N, you must already know Jack.” DJ Drama introduced her.
Jack went in for a hug but Y/N stopped him reaching out for her hand for him to shake. 
“It’s nice to finally meet you, I've heard so much about you.” 
Jack smiled. 
“Good things, I hope” he joked as he shook her hand. 
Jack went on and introduced Y/N to Urban and Nemo. 
“We are glad to have you here. Thank you for helping us out” he smiled. 
“Happy to help.” 
“Would you like to go over the song?” 
“No, I’m good,” she said as she entered the recording booth and put on the headphones. 
Jack was taken back by her confidence but thought it was very attractive.
“Ok. Whenever you’re ready” he said. 
That’s when Y/N who was supposed to sing the chorus to his song “Locked In” however, she completely changed the lyrics and Jack stopped her mid performance. 
“Can we stop?” Jack asked as he looked over at Nemo who simply nodded his head.
Nemo stopped the track and waited for the both of you to agree on the next steps.
Y/N takes off her headphones and turns to Jack wondering what the problem was, but deep down she knew.
“Those aren’t the lyrics” he said and turned to Nemo. “Do you have a copy of the lyrics you can give to Y/N?. 
“Oh, I know what the lyrics are” 
“Then why aren’t you singing them?” Jack asked not understanding what was happening at the moment.
“Well, as far as I’m concerned, I was told to come here to help you with your lyrics which is what I did.” 
“Excuse me?” 
“Your label approached me to help you write a hit. And that’s what I'm trying to do."
“My last album was very successful.” 
“I don’t think an album that scored 2.9 on Pitchfork would be considered successful.” 
Jack looked at her stunned, not knowing how to respond.
“No offense, but your music is on a surface level” you replied not missing a beat. “You talk about all this generic stuff like proving your haters wrong, bragging about your conquests…nothing groundbreaking” you paused. “You never reveal anything about yourself.”
Jack clenched his jaw as he crossed his arms, but he didn’t look away from you as you were talking to him.
“I’m sorry?” he raised his brow, feeling a mix of surprise and irritation. No one had ever challenged him like this before.
“You’re not really saying anything” Y/N pressed. “If you want to stand out, you need to be more vulnerable”
He scoffed. 
“And just spill my dirty laundry into the world?” he shot back. “I’m not doing that”
“Suit yourself” Y/N shrugged. “But don’t expect your fans to care for your music if you’re not willing to be real with them.”
With that Jack left the studio without another word, clearly pissed off because of the exchange that had just happened. 
Y/N turned to look at DJ Drama who couldn’t contain his laughter. 
“Did I say something wrong?” Y/N curiously asked because as far as she was concerned, she was simply being honest with him. 
Jack walked out of the studio and headed over to Craig Kallman’s office who was the CEO of Atlantic Records and he quickly knocked on the door. Hearing his voice say ‘Come in.’ He proceeded to enter.
“Jack, what’s up?” He asked as he looked up at him.
“There’s a bit of an issue with the collab with Y/N. I don’t think she’s the right fit.”
Craig simply looked at him before offering his advice.
“Jack, I know it can be challenging working with a new artist, but I think Y/N can bring a fresh perspective and new life into your music.”
Jack sighs as he sits on the sofa across from Craig’s desk. 
“I’ve built my career on my own terms and I don’t want to compromise my authenticity for the sake of a hit song.”
“We’re not asking you to compromise Jack. We’re asking you to explore new possibilities and push your boundaries as an artist.” Craig says, his tone gentle but firm. “Let’s just call it a day and start over tomorrow; I’ll let Y/N know” 
Jack was feeling somewhat reassured but still conflicted. 
He stood up, thanked Craig and exited his office hoping that things would go better tomorrow

The surprise

Request (I wasn't specifically requested this but I wanna write it. This was inspired by @annaisabookworm's post xx) : I LOVE MY FAVORITE FANFICTION WRITERS ON TUMBLR BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I WANNA SEE WRITTEN?! I WANT A FANFICTION WHERE MATTHEO OR THEODORE TAKE THE READER TO THE ERAS TOUR AND SHE WEARS THE BLURPLE MINDNIGHTS BODY SUIT COUSTUME AND THEY HAVE A CHAIR T SHIRT ON (ikyk) AND THEIR JAW DROPS AND ARE LITERALLY IN SHOCK ALL NIGHT AND THE READER AND HAVE HAVE THE BEST TIME EVER. AND SHES A HUGE SWIFTIE WHOS HYPERFIXATED ON THE ERAS TOUR AND HE SUPRISES HER WITH FRONT ROW TICKETS- ITD BE SO CUTE-
Warnings: I don't think there is any lmk if there are.
A/n: this post is for @annaisabookworm (and anyone else who's reading this lol). I hope you like ittt 💞 this text is full of Taylor Swift song like puns or jokes or wtv (idk) so I apologize in advance lmao
Tumblr media
In the midst of the swirling excitement that is the ERAS Tour, you found yourself standing at the entrance of the bustling concert venue, heart racing with anticipation. Beside you stood Mattheo, your boyfriend, who had guaranteed you an unforgettable night. You were dressed in the most enchanting attire—a blurple midnights body suit dress (which Mattheo had bought for you saying you would look stunning in) which was very well bejeweled - in the words of Taylor Swift and your boyfriend- capturing the essence of Taylor Swift's iconic style. And not to forget, your boyfriend sporting the chair T-shirt that only true fans would recognize.
Two weeks ago you wouldn't even have imagined coming here. Thanks to your boyfriend and now the King of your Heart, Mattheo, you could make your dreams come true. You were going on and on about how much you wanted to go and Mattheo had to give in and buy you tickets. He was going to buy you era tickets anyway, but this made him even more happy for his decision.
As the pulsating energy of the crowd enveloped you, the gates opened, revealing a world of lights, music, and magic. Your breath hitched as you walked through to the other side of the door, feeling like you were about to embark on the journey of a lifetime. Mattheo grinned at your reaction, his eyes dancing with a mix of mischief and delight. Little did you know, he'd been plotting a surprise that would take this night to a whole new level.
With a shared glance that spoke volumes, you and Mattheo made your way to your seats. As the first notes of Taylor's song filled the air, your heart swelled with emotion. But it was not just the music that left you in awe—it was Mattheo's expression. His jaw dropped as he took in the dazzling stage, the dynamic choreography, and the sheer magnitude of the production. His shock was mirrored in your own astonishment, and the two of you exchanged a wide-eyed, incredulous look.
Throughout the night, as Taylor Swift commanded the stage with her powerful presence, you and Mattheo were captivated, utterly lost in the enchantment of the moment. The delicate vocals seemed to transport you to another world. Each time you stole a glance at Mattheo, you were met with a mixture of joy, amazement, and gratitude. It was as if the two of you shared a secret language—a language of shared fandom, love, and an understanding that words could never fully capture.
As the concert reached its crescendo, Mattheo's excitement becomes palpable. He leaned closer to you, a sparkle in his eyes, and whispered, "Are you ready for one more surprise?" Your heart skipped a beat, curiosity mingling with anticipation. And then he reveals it—the pièce de résistance of the night—front-row tickets. Your eyes widen in disbelief as you take in the golden passes clutched in his hand. The surprise is so unexpected, so beyond your wildest dreams, that for a moment, time seemed to stand still and you forgot to breathe. The happiness you felt in that moment was indescribable.
"Tell me why, what I did to deserve such a perfect boyfriend." You asked, looking at him.
"Oh, it's just the way I love you."
The realization sinks in: you're not just witnessing the ERAS Tour from the front row; you're living it, breathing it, and becoming a part of it. Having front row seats hits different. As the final notes reverberated through the air, Mattheo's grin was infectious. His hand found yours, and together, you stood, cheering and applauding, celebrating not just the night but how far you'd come.
As the concert came to an end, the world seemed a little brighter, a little more alive. The memory of the evening was etched into your heart, a tale of love, surprises, and a music that binds you and Mattheo in a way that's uniquely yours.
"I can't believe it's time to go." You said sad about it ending.
"yeah. So did you like it?" Mattheo asked.
"Long story short it was the best day of my entire life." You said.
And with that you exited the venue.
**•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚ ˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚***•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚ ˚*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*˚***•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙***•̩̩͙

The love of an tyrant and a warrior
Tumblr media
(hey guys, so it's been a mintue since i've wrote fanfiction so please bare with me. Im very much gratful for you taking your time to read this. also I was inspired from someone on a03 and I loved it so much that i decided to write again.)
Chapter 1: stolen breath
The universe being spared had to be celebrated, bulma’s idea of course.
 The fight was really neck to neck with jiren and goku’s battle being the most exciting anyone has ever seen. Probably won’t see for a while too, yamcha being one of those who won’t be able to. 
Knowing he wasn’t picked to join the battle for obvious reasons he still wanted to at least spectate, He was catching up with Krillin, who was animatedly recounting tales from the tournament.
“So… about that Frieza fight you couldn’t stop talking about,” Yamcha said, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.
Krillin’s eyes widened, a grin spreading across his face. “Oh man, it was hilarious! There was a fighter, his name was toppo. He completely underestimated him and Frieza ended up getting wrecked!” Krillin chuckled, looking up at Yamcha. “I never thought I’d see someone so confident get taken down so fast.”
Yamcha chuckled, imagining the scene, but his thoughts were soon interrupted by an unexpected sight across the room.
There, in the corner, stood Frieza, the infamous emperor of the universe, brooding in silence. To add to the absurdity, a party hat sat atop his head, a mockery placed there by none other than Beerus. The god of destruction clearly found amusement in Frieza’s discomfort.
“What’s he doing here?” Yamcha’s voice trembled slightly as he glanced over at Frieza, uncertainty etched on his face. He hadn’t expected to see Frieza at Bulma’s party, much less in such a humiliating state.
His friend looked over at him and said, “as scary as it is. he’s still a bad guy, but he won’t hurt us as long as Beerus, Goku, and Vegeta are here to keep an eye on him.”
Even that failed to soothe the warrior’s restless mind. Frieza felt the simmering frustration build within him, knowing he couldn’t unleash his ki energy without drawing the others' attention. The moment he considered making a move, he realized they would sense it instantly, and that thought only intensified his anger.
The notion of being so restrained, so monitored, made his fury boil over even more than it had before.
“Hey, Yamcha!” came a cheerful voice from behind him, startling him out of his thoughts. He turned to see Bulma standing there, her vibrant smile lighting up the room. The unexpectedness of her presence made his heart race for a moment, but he quickly relaxed, grateful for her familiar energy.
“You really can’t just sneak up on me like that!” he exclaimed, a teasing edge to his voice. He took a moment to steady himself, still reeling from the shock. “You almost gave me a heart attack! I know you’re fast, but come on, a little warning next time would be nice!”
Bulma chuckled, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “My bad! I just wanted to see what was going on over here.” Her playful demeanor brought back a flood of memories, reminding him of the unforgettable moments they had shared.
Even now, her presence filled him with warmth and a sense of comfort he couldn’t quite shake.
Reminded that everything they had shared was now in the past, he felt the need to push those memories deep down. “Nothing special has been happening over here,” he said, forcing a casual tone. “I’ve just been playing baseball.” 
Even though it wasn’t much, Bulma listened intently, her eyes bright with interest. They chatted for a while as the party continued to swirl around them, the sounds of laughter and music filling the air. 
Eventually, Bulma shared some surprising news. “You won’t believe this, but Frieza was revived and actually joined the Universe 7 team,” she said, her tone a mix of disbelief and practicality. She explained how it hadn’t been an easy decision, but given the stakes, they had to consider all their options. Frieza, despite his dark past, was undeniably powerful, and the team needed every bit of strength they could muster. 
“Feels like a nightmare for killin being brought to life.” Yamcha joked.
Bulma felt a slight laugh rise in her throat before she continued speaking. Yamcha found himself intrigued; the nature of their enemies fascinated him, even if it belonged to a world far removed from his own. Glancing over at the emperor, he noticed Vegeta and Frieza locked in yet another heated argument.
Their egos clashed like storms both too proud, too powerful to yield.
"They’ve been going at it since the tournament," she said with a nervous laugh, her tone almost pleading. "But honestly, I’d rather not see them destroy the planet today."
It was as if she were begging Yamcha or anyone nearby to step in and defuse the tension. But these two Vegeta and Frieza had power levels that dwarfed his own.
What could he possibly do to ease the situation?
Feeling Frieza's ki ripple through the air, prickling his skin and those around him, Yamcha knew he had to act quickly. Speed-walking over to them, he tried to keep his voice steady. “Vegeta, lord Frieza… it looks like you two have a little disagreement. Aren’t you tired after all the fighting you’ve done already?”
Both of them turned to look at him. Frieza’s gaze was piercing, radiating contempt as if Yamcha were beneath him. "I don’t need a fragile being breaking up my fights," he sneered.
Before Yamcha could respond, Vegeta interjected, crossing his arms with a smirk. “You’d better be grateful he did, Frieza. He saved you from another trip to hell.”
With that, Vegeta turned and walked away, knowing that Bulma would want him to leave things alone. Yamcha let out a sigh of relief. At least, for now, the peace was kept. Left alone with the emperor, Yamcha found himself unsure of what to do.
Should he try to make small talk, simply walk away, or keep things cordial to stay on Bulma’s good side?
Without thinking, he spoke up, a trace of nervousness still in his voice. “Uh—L-Lord Frieza, maybe you’d like something to drink? Or maybe a bite to eat?” He forced a friendly smile, though his pulse raced.
Frieza’s cold glare met him in response. “Are you trying to tell me what to do?”
“What?! No, never, Lord Frieza!” Yamcha replied quickly, his smile widening as a cover for his nerves. “It’s just…most people are in a better mood after they've had something to eat, that’s all.” 
Frieza’s stare didn’t soften, but Yamcha held his ground, hoping he hadn’t just signed his own death warrant.
“Show me to this food, peasant,” Frieza finally commanded after a long, tense silence.
Yamcha didn’t hesitate, quickly leading Frieza to the spread that Bulma and the others had prepared. There was an impressive variety, but Yamcha noticed Frieza’s gaze lingering on the seafood, especially the snow crabs, which had been cooked to perfection.
“These are snow crabs, and—” Yamcha started to explain.
“Just bring me the crabs. I want nothing else,” Frieza ordered curtly, not even glancing in his direction.
Yamcha hurriedly grabbed a plate and loaded it with snow crabs before setting it in front of Frieza. Without a moment’s pause, Frieza cracked one open effortlessly. Yamcha could only hope they’d meet the emperor’s standards. He sat down across from Frieza, keeping just enough distance to make a quick escape if things took a turn.
Frieza paused, wiping his mouth with deliberate elegance before fixing Yamcha with a cold stare.
“Hmm. Perhaps I’ll reconsider killing you,” he drawled, his tone laced with menace. “Interrupting my discussion with that Saiyan could have been your final mistake.”
Yamcha felt his stomach twist. Frieza’s animosity toward the Saiyans was as strong as ever, but he seemed aware enough of the limits that Goku or even Beerus might enforce. Still, Yamcha knew he was in dangerous territory.
“Uh—well, I’m just…grateful to still be breathing,” Yamcha managed, his smile strained.
Frieza raised an eyebrow, a cruel smirk tugging at his lips. “Grateful?” he sneered. “I would think someone in your position should be on their knees in gratitude.”
Yamcha felt a chill run through him. Frieza’s power was unimaginable, and one wrong move could turn him to dust in an instant. He’d faced powerful foes before, but Frieza was something else entirely calculating, merciless, and completely willing to wipe out anyone or anything in his way. Suppressing his anxiety, Yamcha forced himself to remain calm, hoping respect would keep Frieza’s wrath at bay.
With a flicker of amusement in his eyes, Frieza continued. “Yes…you have a certain charm,” he said, voice dripping with sarcasm. “Perhaps I’ll keep you as a servant. A tolerable price for putting up with these Saiyan apes.”

WHITE BALL
Tumblr media
characters : ace , taiko , tetsu ,  mysterious guest.
warnings : none !
word count : 0.9k
authors note : first post about my doomed poly ship - blood sweat and tears ! tetsu is owned by @elliotrivriv and this was my first major piece on em! heavily inspired by the song by the same name by miracle musical!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
winter islands typically were a mixed bag. the snow made it hard for certain islands to get proper resources, so if they had gotten a particularly bad storm supplies may be gone for a while. that is what had happened to this particular island, mixed with a spreadable flu and it made for a terrible trap. 
the cure pirates were welcomed eagerly and within that same day cured the spreading illnesses. all that was left was to monitor the patients to ensure a steady recovery. after a short morning shift taiko had gotten the rest of the day to relax per her crew after a rough day of bloodletting. 
she left the medic building and trudged back to the hotel inn she and her partners were staying at. the coat around her protected her from the frost but to her it would never be enough. on the walk back she caught the sight of a bakery and considered buying something to take back. turning to do so, her name was called and she whipped her head to see the sight of her shorter lover. 
“tetsu! where is your scarf, i’m freezing just looking at you.” she scolded softly once he was closer, only spotting him wearing a coat.he bristled a bit, just as ace predicted she had gotten mad. 
“i was warmed by ace, its good don't worry. just wanted to walk you back to the room since you said you’d only be there a short while.” he replied, and taiko nodded. tetsu and ace were lucky enough to retain heat so well, while taiko was lost to the weather. either way him wanting to walk her back warmed her in an unspeakable way. in all her medicine knowledge and textbook data never did she realized how powerful a medicine love was. her hand wordlessly reached for his, shyly linking their fingers.
“theres a bakery, want to grab something for dinner?” she asked, coughing and looking at the building as to hide her reddened cheeks. tetsus hand was an accepted warmth as he led her into the store to look around. the bakery had some soup they were willing to part with as gratitude for their help, and some meat to throw into it. tetsu had already glared at the slight smile that found itself on her lips, knowing he would be the grill this meat found itself on but said nothing. 
the chatter back was quiet, and light— mostly talking about the patients and how they were doing. but conversation was conversation and taiko was only willing to talk so much if it was either tetsu or ace. she had opened up considerably to them, growing to trust them beyond anyone else. this was not one sided of course, with each of them blooming in their own ways around their partners. taiko still remembers the day marco said she was the closest to ever “domesticating” tetsu. 
she was thankful the inn was quiet, humming softly as tetsu unlocked the lock with a flick of his hand and opened the door for her. the room was pleasantly warm, making her sigh as she took off her heavy coat and boots. this must be aces doing, taiko mused as she ventured further in.  rustling could be heard from the side room and taiko was immediately jumped by her taller lover. she yelped as ace picked her up and spun her around, laughing at her shock. 
“you’re back!” he cheered as taiko steadied herself against him, bluntly glaring at him as she wrapped her legs around his waist. 
“yea not from war, you’re being dramatic!” taiko rebutted, watching as ace trotted over towards the bed. 
“ace no.” she began, her glare sharpening as aces' smile only turned more mischievous. ace held her hips and wrestled her legs off, giggling under his breath as he adjusted her. 
she bickered with him for a moment until he lifted her from him and tossed her upon her, laughing at her playful yells. tetsu immediately weaved his arms around aces waist, lifting him and slamming him into the bed before jumping atop him. taiko groaned as both heavy males were piled atop her and the two scurried to give her some room while not fully getting off her. ace laid on his back and tugged taiko onto him, as taiko latched chest to chest to tetsu. she enjoyed this bundle they often found themselves in, taiko found a blissful joy in being able to catch the typical uncatchable tetsu and pepper his face with kisses. ace enjoyed being around the two, leaning his chin atop her shoulder and making her shiver and complain whenever he got a bit too cheeky with his affections. from his perch he also got to make dumb faces at tetsu, which he typically glared at or on special occasions would reciprocate in the childish act. tetsu relished in the gentle affections of the both, either the whispered words of assurance or the fingers that would eventually weave their way into his hair. 
as the three eventually found the sanctity of slumber, taiko couldn't help but smile at the comfort found in the embrace of her lover’s… 
꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷꒷꒦꒷꒦꒷
a snicker was heard as teach pulled the receiver away from taikos face, a dark chuckle rumbling his chest. cruel eyes stared down the slumped over form of taiko,
“is that good enough for you little brother? sate that ravenous appetite of yours?” he spoke with grit as he heard the dangerous low growl of tetsu from the other end. tetsus voice crackled, emotions clogging his throat as he was hit with the mixed feeling of relief and despair. taiko was alive - if one could even call the state she was in as truly living. but he hadn’t completely failed yet.

Look I can't draw fast so I'm just going to share my current ideas of some GD levels that I either haven't drawn yet or I sketched but don't have their final design so keep in mind that none of the images I share are the final design.
Starting with the main game levels:
Electroman adventures: a superhero who goes around the city trying to save people and stop local supervillains from doing evil. He uses a bo staff like weapon that glows when he touches it as it channels his electricity (I'm trying to restrain myself from sharing too much. There's a lot I could say about him. I'm getting these ideas from the vocal mix waterflame made of the song. It's like an intro for if electroman adventures was a tv show (electroman is seen as an actual character in that video) I'll explain more when I actually get around to drawing him :] )
Blast processing: The local supervillain. He has a rivalry with electroman adventures. He doesn't actually want to hurt anyone though and just does it for fun. He uses a crossbow with fire along with various supervillain technology. (Also had to restrain myself from talking too much with this one)
Polargeist: An ice ghost who was a polar bear in her previous life. She uses an icicle as her weapon (I sketched out her design before actually. This isn't final though)
Tumblr media
Theory of everything (1 and 2):
Fairies that use wands and have the knowledge of the universe because it makes sense.
(I've only ever drawn ToE 2. The final design will look better, I swear. Also 3 and 4 do exist too)
Tumblr media
Jumper: The easter bunny child. She carries around a basket and uses a wand.
Tumblr media
Some random world levels:
Space pirates: A kid in a Halloween costume who uses a gun.
Round one: Previous leader of the toxic factory but got overthrown by space pirates. He is now a guard. He uses a gun (I'm looking forward to telling you the full story, it's funny)
Striker: A knight who is a part horse inspired by the chess piece. He uses a sword.
Frontlines: A guard who is part dog (maybe a fluffy white one) He uses a gun and I also ship him with striker.
Now for some random demons:
Duelo maestro: They're twins because of the 2 player thing. One is a witch and the other is a magician. They both use wands.
Tidal wave: A dolphin mermaid. Probably uses a trident or staff.
Congregation: Some kind of nightmare spirit or something having to do with dreams/nightmares (that idea came from the whole jumpscare meme and also because the level feels ominous and the music reminds me of a nightmare sequence) (this is the one character I don't have a weapon for yet) (he also got rejected by tidal wave once)
Limbo: The classic half angel/half devil and she uses a staff that symbolizes that. She's good friends with congregation and also hates tidal wave but I secretly ship her with tidal wave. (I'm still working on how to work the actual lore from this level like how I did with electroman adventures. These were just scattered ideas from before I read it)
Nine circles: He uses bright flashy lights and carries a scythe around (I just think the scythe would be cool)
I really hope I can draw them soon. I might also do a part two if you want to see that. Also feel free to steal these ideas or take inspiration, I don't mind ^^ I hope you enjoyed reading my silly rambles :3

Okay so I'm going to put my thoughts on that last reblog here partially because i dont really want anyone to see is and partially because the op made a good point already and this will be more from my perspective as someone who is black, from a bad neighborhood and grew up in a similar situation that inspired gangsta rap.
A lot of rap, including gansta rap, is kinda sad. If you listen to enough of it and at all relate to the lyrics you'd understand, there's a lot of misery and sadness in it. Desire for escapism and a deeper desire to never go back to living that way.
It back when i was younger there were posts on the tumblr or sites like quizazz or faeries and vampires about how "emo" music was relatable and sad because it mirrored peoples experiences and there was this feeling/animosity towards hip hop/rap/pop for not being genuine like those emo/rock and how people had this like persecution fetish about how they'd be judged for liking thw music they listened to (admittedly more of the open hate was pointed at pop [specifically like justin Bieber or the jonas brothers lol]) and when rap got brought up into the mix it was so often written off attacked or dismissed for being kinda evil and vapid (i guess I'm looking for an easy way of saying they considered rap to be meaning less just about pointless violence, drugs ect) when for me rap even gansta rap has been a often times bitterly relatable.
I guess my point is... Listen to Biggie

~The Price~Chapter 46~Finale~
Tumblr media
Moodboard made by @badwolf-in-the-impala none of the pictures are ours
~
Taddie sang along to an Omens Of Wrath song as she put the finishing touches on her painting. While she had this constant reminder of Thatcher, it soon melted away into just music to her, just another song, just another band. And surprisingly, it gave her fuel for inspiration, at least to keep going and not take as many breaks because she was on a roll. She was practically giddy, as the opening for her gallery was quickly approaching and she was getting more and more pieces to be put up and sold.
While Taddie had begun to distance herself from the bar, she still worked every Friday to Sunday, to help with the weekend rushes. After improving the bar once she became manager, they had begun to attract the right clientele and she was able to feel okay about leaving the bar in the girls’ hands, knowing they had it now that everyone was in better spirits and the crowd was much more pleasant than before. This freed her up during the week to do what she wanted. She visited local museums, sat by the river and painted, took day trips to the beach on bright, sunny days as they rolled into spring. These trips gave her all manner of inspiration for her new pieces that she pitched to the gallery owners and ultimately won her the spot.
Switching off the speaker, Taddie paused her music and heard Juniper’s bell as she ran down the stairs, hearing the loud, booming music finally gone. She giggled and scooped up the small beast as Juniper purred and rubbed against her cheek and under her jaw.
“I know, Juni. I’m sorry, baby. Mama likes to listen to loud things when I work. Come on, you want a lil somethin’-somethin’?” Taddie giggled as Juniper climbed onto her shoulder, perching as she trilled in excitement. Taddie snickered, softly, and went to a cabinet to take out a package of freeze dried fish, then moved around the kitchen to grab a bowl, a pair of scissors and cut up the fish before adding a bit of water to it. She mixed it up and brought it to Juniper’s new cat tower, setting it on the highest perch, Juniper jumping off Taddie’s shoulder and climbing up for her treat. “Good girl, Juni.”
Taddie smiled as she gave Juniper a few pets, then went back to the kitchen to clean up and grab a cup for herself, filling it with ice and water before selecting a flavor packet to sprinkle in, and mixed it. She screwed the lid on top and took a testing sip, letting out an approving ‘Mmm’ as she walked across the floor. She jumped as a knock sounded on the door, Taddie raising a brow as she wasn’t expecting anyone, but assumed it was Ash, as she was the only one with her new address, aside from Dario, Dante, and Sebastian, who’d all helped her move.
“Ash? Hey, what are you doing here? You didn’t say you were--” Taddie called as she went to the door, undoing the locks before pulling it open. Her mouth snapped shut and she nearly dropped her cup as Thatcher turned to her on the porch, giving her a small smile.
“Hi.”
“What are you doing here? Why are you here?” Taddie shot at him, irritated, her brows furrowing tightly. Thatcher’s smile faded as he said, “I, um, I wanted to talk?”
“Why would I want to talk to you? I told you I didn’t want to see you anymore.” Taddie said, moving to close the door. Thatcher planted his hand on the door, but quickly pulled his hand back as she shot him a fierce look.
“Taddie, please. It’s been three months. I haven’t talked to you about anything that happened. I don’t know how you are…Taddie, you shut me out. I’m concerned, I’m worried about you.” Thatcher said, drawing his brows together. Taddie sighed and shifted her weight, popping her hip.
“I’m fine, Thatcher. Happy? Can you leave now?” Taddie said.
“I don’t believe you. Taddie-“
“You hurt me, Thatcher! You killed someone in front of me! I don’t know how I can ever forgive you!” Taddie hollered at him. Thatcher took a step back and let out a deep sigh, pushing his hands into his pockets. She let out an irritated sigh and planted a hand on her hip, staring at him.
“That’s why we need to talk. Please, angel-“
“Stop. Calling me that.”
“Talk. To me, then.”
“No.”
Taddie slammed the door and locked it before turning around and leaning against the door, tears slipping down her face. She sniffled and let out a soft sob before she wiped her face and pushed off the door, going up the stairs to her room.
~
It was finally the night of her gallery opening and Taddie was utterly terrified. The owners all told her that her pieces were amazing, phenomenal, but there was still a part of Taddie that didn’t think she’d sell anything during the entire three months and she’d wind up back in Roanoke and the bar. But she pushed that out of her mind as best she could, relieved when she saw Ash and Dario walk in, Dante and Sebastian behind them.
“Ash! Thank God!” Taddie sighed, hurrying over to her and giving her a tight hug.
“Hi! Oh, my God, Taddie this all looks great, babes. I’m so excited for you!” Ash giggled, hugging her back. Taddie moved onto Dario, then the other two, grateful to see familiar faces.
“This is awesome, Taddie. Where’s Thatcher?” Dante asked, glancing around. Taddie’s face fell slowly and she looked away, clearing her throat and shifting awkwardly.
“Um…H-He-He’s, um, not coming…He wasn’t invited.” Taddie said, lowering her voice and suddenly not so happy to see the boys. Dante raised a brow, exchanging a look with Dario and Sebastian before he said, “Oh…Uh-“
“We broke up…” Taddie said, bluntly, making it clear she didn’t want to talk about it any further. Dario gave Dante a nudge and shook his head at the drummer.
“So, where do we go to buy shit? All these are on sale, right?” Sebastian asked with a wide grin. Taddie glanced at him and gave him a half smile as she nodded and said, “There’s a man over by the podium-He’s the one to talk to about inquiries and buying.”
“Sick-We’re definitely buying one each.” Sebastian said with a soft laugh. Taddie’s cheeks turned red and she looked away, bashfully.
“You don’t have to. The prices are all super low. They said it was my first gallery so not to overcharge or I’d never sell anything.” Taddie said, giving him a light, sweet smile.
They all talked for a while longer before Taddie separated herself to go mingle with the others and talk up the pieces. The gallery went on for around 4 hours and by the end, Taddie was exhausted. She’d sold almost every piece, save a few that were too odd for the crowd, and by the end of the night had made around $10,000. As guests began to trickle out, Thatcher slipped in and began to wander around, marveling at her work. Ash and the boys had gone already, something Thatcher was thankful for, since no one really knew he and Taddie weren’t together, save Dario, and he didn’t want it to get awkward.
He saw Taddie in the corner, talking animatedly about something, a wide, excited smile on her face. His own smile lifted, slightly, happy to see her smile once more, but then he turned away and walked out, deciding not to ruin her night, or at the very least not confront her at the gallery. Instead, he got back in his car and drove off, toward her house.
~
When Taddie pulled into her driveway, she sat there for a moment, the exhaustion seeping in, but then quickly went away as excitement filled her once again. Before the night ended, Taddie was pulled aside by the gallery owners, telling her they’d been approached by an art director who was interested in adding Taddie to a show he was putting together in Paris for the spring. After talking everything over with the director, Taddie was offered a spot in a month-long gallery in Paris, where she’d be put up in a house or a studio, and all month long she was expected to paint and submit as many pieces as she could. Taddie was stunned but happily accepted, ready to faint from enthusiasm, got paid for the pieces she sold, and drove home.
As she got out, Taddie let out a small squeal and giggled and she tapped her feet, happily. She let out a deep sigh and closed her eyes as she turned to lean on her car, happy tears slipping out as she sniffled. Pushing herself off the car, Taddie opened her eyes with a bright smile and dug in her bag for her keys. She got two steps up before she halted, staring at Thatcher, sitting in a chair on her porch. Thatcher sat forward, out of the shadows so his face was illuminated. Taddie was surprised he didn’t smile at her, try to charm her, instead, his brows were drawn together, tight, and his eyes looked red.
“Hi…” Taddie said, softly, slowly stepping onto the porch.
“Hi.” Thatcher said, his voice rough and raspy. Taddie chewed her lip and quickly looked down at her keys, picking at the keychain. “I’m sorry…I’ll go…”
“Why do you keep coming back?” She asked, tears stinging her eyes as her throat went dry. Thatcher roughly rubbed his hands over his face as he sat back.
“Because I fucking love you, Taddie…I’ve been in love with you for a fucking year now…I-I can’t just let you go.” He sniffled softly. She winced, biting her lip hard, as she suddenly felt guilty for cutting him off so abruptly. His head shot up, tears trickling down his face as he said, “Taddie, I’m sorry. I’m sorry for what I did--He had a goddamn gun pointed at you, kitten. I didn’t see or hear anything else. I needed to get rid of him before he hurt you again!”
“Shh, shh…Thatcher, please don’t shout-Fucking hell--” Taddie muttered, going to him and reaching out, before she stopped and pulled back, then beckoned him closer as she went to the door, unlocking it with a deep sigh. Thatcher quickly wiped his face and slowly stood.
“You don’t want me in your home. I-I’m not going to force you to-”
“Thatcher, if you want to talk to me, get in the fucking house…I’m not doing this with you out here.” Taddie snapped, taking a slow breath as her gaze drifted over to him. Thatcher nodded, lightly, and went to her, slowly. She tilted her head up to him and held her breath as he lifted a hand to her face, his fingers hovering over her cheek, then he quickly dropped it and took a giant step back as he looked away. Biting her lip, she looked away and pushed the door open as she turned the knob, Thatcher slowly following behind her. Taddie closed the door once he was in and quickly did up the locks.
As Thatcher turned to her, he saw Taddie leaning her forehead against the door, taking deep, slow breaths before she lifted her head and turned to hang up her bag and set her keys in a bowl by the door. She shrugged off her jacket, putting it in the closet, then let out a light sigh as she lifted a leg, rubbing at the side of her foot, around the straps of her heels. She went to a bench that was up against her couch and sat down with a soft sigh. Thatcher took a step toward her, then stopped, his hands beginning to shake as he restrained himself from reaching out to her. Opening her eyes to lean down and unbuckle the straps, Taddie stopped when she saw Thatcher staring at her, shaking, looking like he was going to explode or break, or both.
Thatcher quickly looked away and cleared his throat as he said, “Sorry, I just-”
“Will you? Please?” Taddie asked, lightly lifting a foot toward him, letting it fall back down, the heel clicking on the floor. Thatcher glanced at her, then fully turned his head to her. She chewed her lip and shot her gaze to the floor as she said, softly, “Please? My feet actually really hurt…I-I’m not used to heels.”
“Of course, k…Of course.” Thatcher said with a light sigh, going to her and kneeling down, sliding his hands over her foot, lifting it to rest on his knee. Taddie bit her lip and tugged at the skirt of her dress, squeezing her thighs together a little tighter. She watched him and tried not to melt as she felt his fingertips brushing over her skin as he quickly unbuckled one heel, then the other, gently lowering her foot back down before he stood and backed off.
Taddie winced and looked away from him as she said, “Please don’t do that…Don’t-Don’t back away like-like I’m gonna yell or-or hit you or something…”
“You don’t want me touching you. It-It’s really hard for me not to. I have to do that, otherwise I will…I’m not trying to hurt you anymore than I have, Taddie.” He said, tearfully and painfully. Her whole body flinched and she quickly stood, moving around the couch as she smothered her whimpers and sniffled, lightly.
“Seeing you like this hurts me, Thatcher…This-You-You’re not like this. You’re not the unstable one. Y-You’re-You’re supposed to forget about me and move on, find someone better.” Taddie said, with a light sob. Thatcher went to her and lightly slid his hands over her arms.
“I can’t forget about you, Taddie. You made my life so much brighter and happier…How do you forget the sun? Or flowers? Music, art?--I can’t forget you. I’d never forget you.” He whispered to her, gently and briefly nuzzling her curls before he pulled his hands back. She gave a tearful sniffle, then let out a sigh before she said, “Please stop pulling away from me…I’ve told you when I don’t want you to touch me…”
“Tell me now…I need to hear it, Taddie. Please…” He whispered back. With a soft whimper, Taddie quickly turned to him and buried her face in his chest, letting out a sob as she wrapped her arms around his waist. Thatcher let out a deep sigh and tightly wrapped his arms around her, walking backwards until he hit something solid, then buried his face in her hair with a light sob of his own. “Taddie, I love you--Please. I need you in my life. I need to go to sleep with you and wake up with you. I’m so sorry I killed him. I’m sorry I did it in front of you. I wasn’t thinking-Just about keeping you safe, Taddie, please believe me.”
“I know. I know--God, Thatcher, I have nightmares about it still. Jack dead, blood everywhere…You come running after me with a gun. I--” Taddie sobbed, lightly, as Thatcher quickly pulled back and gently took her face, looking down at her with a horrified look.
“No. No-Taddie, I’m so sorry. I’m s-God, what have I done?” Thatcher said with a pain in his voice that made Taddie shake her head, quickly, tugging his hands down to mimic him, sliding her hands along the sides of his face.
“I-I kn-I know-I know y-you-you’d never--They’re just dreams, Patch. They’re just dreams. I don’t think that about you. I-I’m-I’m not afraid of you.” Taddie said, tearfully, trying to give him a reassuring smile, but they were both too emotional and Thatcher shook his head, pulling her back into the embrace, holding her tight.
“You should be…God, look what I’ve done to you…I’m no better than him-”
Taddie pushed him away with a huff and slapped him before she screamed at him, “Don’t you ever say that again, Thatcher Price! You are nothing like him! The fact that you’re even remotely upset about this proves it! There’s a reason I wanted to stay! There’s a reason I was so happy! There was a reason why I loved you! You were nothing like him! You never touched me the way he did! You never spoke to me the way he did! He didn’t do the things you did for me!”
“Say it again.” Thatcher said, fixing his gaze on her as he dropped his hand from his cheek, where she’d slapped him, and took a few steps closer to her. Taddie bit her lip and shuffled back, but hit the arm of the couch and began to topple backwards. As her arms flailed about, Thatcher wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer as he repeated, “Say it again, Taddie…”
“S-S-Say-Say w-wh-what?” She stammered, pressing her hands against his chest as he helped her regain her footing and let a little more space come between them.
“There was a reason why you what?” He asked, softly, lifting a hand up to gently push her curls back. Her fingers curled around the edges of his jacket as she let out a soft gasp, not fully realizing what she’d said in the heat of the moment. She shook her head, then she froze as he slowly and gently dragged his thumb over her jaw. Her eyes fluttered shut as fresh tears slid down her cheeks and a deep ache formed in her chest, not realizing how much she truly missed his touch. “Look at me and tell me you love me.”
Taddie’s eyes shot open as she looked up at him and breathed out, “I love you, Thatcher. I do. Th-The entire time…A-At least since-since we-Since-Since I showed you my scar--The way you-you just-You kissed it, you-you didn’t hesitate…”
“Why didn’t you ever tell me? Taddie, I still would have given you the money-”
“I didn’t care about the money, Thatcher! I cared about you! I cared about how you made me feel-I was so. Happy. Thatcher. You made me happy…I didn’t think I’d ever really know what that feels like…What it was like to be truly loved.” Taddie said with a deep, tearful sigh, letting her head drop forward, to rest on his chest. Thatcher slowly slid his arms around her and held her tight, gently nuzzling into her curls.
“I love you, Taddie. I want to be with you-I need to be with you…Please give me one more chance. Please…” Thatcher begged, squeezing her tighter for a moment before releasing her and pulling his hands to her arms, gently rubbing up and down. Taddie sniffled and lifted her head to him, chewing her lip as she drew her brows together. He let out a heavy sigh and dropped his hands as he gave a light nod and said, almost stating for her, “You-You don’t trust me enough anymore…I can’t get another chance.”
“Thatcher…I-I don’t see how I can be your girlfriend after every-”
“Then don’t be my girlfriend…” Thatcher said, quickly, a renewed excitement in his voice, though it shook with nervousness. Taddie blinked and opened her mouth to ask what he meant, but stopped as he quickly knelt down on one knee, tugging a small box from his pocket. Taddie gasped and shook her head, looking incredibly guilty and worried, holding out her hand to stop him as he said, “I want you in my life, Taddie. Forever. I-I don’t want anyone else, I won’t want anyone else…Another rumor in my family is a Price only falls in love once--I don’t think I was ever in love with her, I was in love with the idea of what she could be…But she couldn’t be you. No one could ever be you or replace you. Not in my life and not in my heart…I’m not asking to get married next month…But will you, Thaden Rylin Prior, somewhere in the next few years, marry me, so we can both be happy and loved?”
Taddie let out another gasp and she slid her fingers over her mouth as she saw the same sapphire ring she’d given back to him, now with an additional band of diamonds and sapphires beneath it. She let out a soft, astonished sigh, dropping her hand and sliding her fingers over the stones. She sniffled as her vision blurred with new tears. Thatcher took the rings out and reached for her left hand, gently taking it and raising it, holding the rings in front of her ring finger, waiting.
“Oh-Thatcher…I-I-I don’t know. I don’t--”
“I know…Please trust me again, my love…My angel, my Princess, my kitten…Please, Taddie.” Thatcher said, gazing up at her, his brows raised and drawn tight. As Taddie stayed silent and stared down at him, Thatcher became more and more worried that her answer was no, and she just couldn’t bring herself to say it. He bit his lip and slowly lowered her hand and the rings, letting his head down with a sigh. “Alright…I-I’m sorry-”
“If you. Ever. Do anything like this again, Patch…” Taddie finally said, Thatcher’s head shooting up to hers. He stared at her, holding his breath, until a smile slowly tugged at her lips, Taddie gently biting her lower lip before she sniffled and said, “Are we telling your parents the truth?”
“I already did. I told them before me and Father drove down when I first came here.” Thatcher said. Taddie let out a light chuckle before she asked, “What did your mother say?”
“Mother was pissed. Damn near beat the shit out of me for using you…She really liked you.” He said with a soft laugh before he stood and gripped her hand, staring down at her. “Taddie-”
“We’re not getting married until we’ve been together for at least a year. A whole year…We celebrate an anniversary and everything.” Taddie said, squeezing back as her smile lifted more. “Put the ring on my finger…Then kiss me and tell me you love me.”
Thatcher’s smile jumped across his face as he quickly lifted her hand and slipped the rings onto her finger before scooping her up and crushing his lips to hers as she giggled and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back, eagerly. She sniffled and wrapped her legs around his waist, clinging to him as he spun them around, kissing and sniffling between them. Finally, they broke the kiss and began laughing together, until Thatcher lost his footing and stumbled back, falling over the arm of the couch. Taddie let out a squeal, pulling her legs back as he fell, but Thatcher held her tight, keeping her in place. She pushed herself up once they’d fallen and gazed down at him, tucking her curls behind her ear before dropping her hand down to thread her fingers through his hair.
“I love you, Taddie Prior.”
“I love you, Thatcher Price.”

4 Town As Songs I Shamelessly Loop
What it says! I've been feeling way more inspired after my week-long trip away. I dove back into my playlists and came up with this idea. Thanks for anyone who's still stuck around after my sorta hiatus. I'm gonna be updating more often again!
Enjoy my absolutely shambolic music taste and look out for more content soon 🧡
Tumblr media
Robaire;
Vision of Love - Mariah Carey
'You treated me kind, sweet destiny! And I'll be eternally grateful, Holding you so close to me.'
Something about this song just screams 'Robaire' to me. The mix of slow jam sensuality and jaw-dropping vocals is so on brand for him.
This song is a classic and I could definitely imagine Robaire singing this either before fame in a talent contest or as a solo artist later down the road. Let's face it, if anyone can rival Mariah's whistle tones, it's Robaire.
Jesse;
Whatsername - Green Day
'I made a point to burn all of the photographs. She went away, and then I took a different path.'
So, I personally hc Jesse as being an ex member of the alternative rock scene. He went through many phases, but his grunge/punk time was one for the books. And like any good punk rocker, he still loves Green Day.
The chilled, mellowness of this song is reminds me of him, too. That and the lyricism, the theme of leaving a romantic interest in the past. I feel like he'd have related to this song with the mom of his kids. He'd definitely have had some long drives blasting this song, screaming out the lyrics as the melody builds.
Aaron T;
Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing - Stevie Wonder
'Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama. 'Cause I'll be standing on the side When you check it out.'
My God, this song is T to a T. The Latin American flavour, the garbled Spanish in the intro, the upbeat playfulness. It's all him.
Plus, we know T is a supportive friend and S/O. He has a positive outlook on life, and he definitely passes that on to his loved ones. Bolstering them up to take on life's challenges while waiting in the wings to support them through it all.
Aaron Z;
Lavender Haze - Taylor Swift
'Staring at the ceiling with you, Oh, you don't ever say too much. And you don't really read into my melancholia.'
I won't lie, this song gave me inspiration to do this post in the first place. Something about it reminds me of Z. Maybe it's the purple aesthetic, the sombre beats, the whole vibe of giving no f*cks. I don't know, it's all just very Z.
Plus, I feel like he's a night owl. Finding peace in that time of the night when everyone else is asleep and he can let his imagination run wild. Part of him comes alive at that magical midnight hour, and that's what this song is all about to me.
✨Bonus ✨; In the modern AU, I hc Z as having a fat secret crush on Ms Swift. T's definitely planning an embarrassing encounter between them at some point.
Tae Young;
Intro; Persona - BTS
'Persona, who the hell am I? I just wanna go, I just wanna fly. I just wanna give you all the voices till I die. I just wanna give you all the shoulders when you cry.'
I know, I know- picking a K-pop song for Tae-
Tumblr media
Buuuuut, I genuinely feel like this song is so Tae. It's all about discovering yourself through supporting those you love most. As I hc Tae as bisexual, and we all know he's the youngest, he's still growing into himself. But he has so much love to give, and the members and 4 Townies see that.
Also, this song is super rogue but honestly such a bop. It's catchy and a lil feisty, and we know that Tae isn't all sunshine and rainbows.

(I'm sorry for the mistakes) Are you okay? Sorry to intrude, but I hope your mental/physical state is ok and you are taking good care of yourself! (^-^*)/
Hi! It's okay, thank you for asking! I typically like to do asks in order, but I thought this would be a good ask to kind of get things out there and talk about what's been going on with me and Mine!
As for if I'm okay, I don't really know. I can't say I'm okay but I know that it could be a lot worse(because I've felt way lower then this before) I'm not really sure how to take care of myself other then repressing things but I am seeing a therapist and we've been talking about how to handle my emotions as they come. I do wish that I was able to see a therapist before my repressive coping habits took over but due to circumstances I'll get into later I just wasn't able to.
As for Mine stuff, I am still very slowly but surely working on my asks. I do have a few done but once again I like to answer my asks in order. Last night I thought it would also be smarter to do my asks backwards from how I've received them so that way I could just que them all up instead of writing the first ask I got and then lacking motivation and ideas for the later asks. I guess rn I'm going through a bit of writers block? I think it's that mixed with my extreme lack of motivation. As for my event, I have thought about lowering the number and then raising the numbers again for a later milestone! I tend to always put a lot on my plate and 50 requests may have been a bit more then what I could handle as of now. Another thing as well is that even though I love drawing, I don't draw super often. I get hit with random waves of motivation and it's very easy for me to lose that motivation. So I have the sketches mostly done for the drawing requests I've gotten, but if I have no motivation to draw then the drawings turn out looking wonky and just all wrong and then I'm no longer proud of them. I still plan on doing the events and I'm so sorry that my lack of motivation happened like as soon as I hit 100 followers, It doesn't feel fair to you all but I seriously cannot thank you enough for your continued support. Everyone has been so nice and no one has come into my dms rushing me with anything, seriously thank you all so much for that! Another thing as well is that Mine is not my only story, if you follow my main account I have most of my stories listed there and there's like over 50 stories. it's like that because I have so many ideas but once again I lose motivation so easily, and as mentioned earlier I like to put a lot on my plate, I don't like to just work on one story at a time and it causes me to get burnout which I'm sadly going through with Mine. I was answering asks nonstop when I got them, getting asks motivated me to get up out of bed, I was so happy and overjoyed to get asks, and don't get me wrong I still am! I love getting asks and seeing what ideas you want me to write for, although I was also overwhelmed at first, I had gotten so much support which I hadn't expected to ever. I honestly wasn't expecting anyone to like my stuff but I was ready to still work on Mine because I work for ME. But I wasn't happy with how the sprites were turning out, I wasn't getting inspiration for any music soundtracks, and I'm struggling on the script, I've got Minato's week planned mostly but it just feels so BORING! He's the first route, it needs to drag you in a bit more. So far there's been like no yandere tendencies which sure maybe that fits for Minato, but I'm just not proud of it at all so I need to rewrite Minato's week planning. The more I wrote asks the more I felt disconnected to these characters, it felt like I wasn't writing them like I was before, which I tried telling myself that it was fine because when I first made this blog Mine hadn't even been in the process for a year and I thought we could go through developing these characters together, but it just didn't feel right. I also started to dislike their designs. I felt that I had designed more interesting characters before and they just felt so boring, I like their hair and faces, mainly clothes design is where it felt lacking. Jun, Aki, and Yani have the designs I like the best honestly, their clothes feel more intricate.
Anyways yeah that's me and what's been happening, sorry for the long post and venting. I'm still working on asks when I find the motivation to and I did make some progress on them a day or two ago. I hope I can get out of this slump and come back better then ever. Once again thank you all for being patient with me and for supporting me still! I love you all!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I'm going to go a bit more in depth with things, sorry for the long post! You don't have to read what below if you don't want to, it mostly explains more of what's been happening with me, but I've also touched on a lot of my reasons for not posting above! Honestly I lot of it is venting, so please don't read if you're struggling with any below!
TW FOR SUICIDAL THOUGHTS, DEATH, ABUSE(?), MENTAL ILLNESSES
So a couple years ago I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I didn't really understand it, like it didn't feel like it's affected me that much but I've learned a lot more about it and can definitely see in which ways it has impacted me. When I started Mine I wasn't exactly in a high state of Mine but getting asks and seeing people like my work for once in my life really raised my moods, but I really struggle with staying happy. No matter how much I want happiness to stay, it always leaves. Right now I'm going through one of my lows. Honestly, I typically ignore my lows the best I can, It sometimes work and sometimes it doesn't, this is one of the times where I can't repress my feelings, and as mentioned earlier I do think a part of it is because I've been talking to my therapist about embracing the negative feeling, admit that I'm not happy and work through it instead of hiding it. Not that I blame my therapist, I'm really hoping that it works and I'm choosing to listen to my therapist because I want to get better, honestly I could've ignored everything she told me and kept repressing my feelings but I want to be happy so I'm really trying to embrace the fact that I'm not okay and work through it! I don't know how long this low will last, but when I get out of this low I want to work on Mine and get the same excited and happy feelings I had when I first started. Mine might go through some changes but overall I want these characters to have the same personalities and backstories, the only thing that might change with them is their clothes.
Along with my bipolar disorder, I've been diagnosed with major depression with psychotic features, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. Needless to say these all impact me greatly. The lack of motivation, struggling to get up out of bed or go to sleep at a normal time, and even eating and drinking and going to the bathroom. I've always found it easier to take care of others rather then myself because that's just how I was raised. To always put others above myself. As I've gotten older I realized that that's not how that should work, but it was already pushed into my brain and I still struggle to take care of myself. I'm always stressed, can't sleep right and I can't wake up before 5pm. Sometimes I'll sit in one spot, fidgeting while I wait for some motivation to strike. But I can't even think because of course when I think my mind never goes to good things. Thoughts about just wanting to give up(Which don't worry too much, I won't do it, even if the thoughts get to be too much), my repressed memories coming back, mom and her death and neglect before dying, dad and his temper tantrums, my grandma and how she's one of the only people in my life to care and love me, and how I wish I could talk to others easily but of course my mind gets fuzzy and I can't speak and how almost all of my friends have left me, how I feel defective and unlovable. The thoughts don't stop, every time it just gets worse and worse and I can't stop questioning what I did wrong and why no one wants to be my friend. People just use you and then toss you out when they're done and it's so cruel, I want someone who actually wants me in their life and who values me as much as I value them, someone who treats me like a person with actual feelings rather then a robot or an object. But it's so hard to find people like that, as I said there's a lot of cruel people out there and to those who aren't cruel I have a hard time trusting them due to past experiences and I know it's not fair to those kind people but gosh being vulnerable is so hard. And I know it's really early to question if I'll ever meet anyone I can trust 100% because I'm only 18 but gosh do I know about death, I know that death doesn't care about your age. I could die later tonight or sometime this week or next month or maybe I do die in many years, but then what about the people I meet and value, will they be taken away from me as well? Do I want to put my heart on the line just to end up losing them eventually? Could I handle another death? I don't know? I really don't, It already hurts to think about losing my sister and my bestest friend in the entire world, I'm already so lucky to have them in my life, what if I lose them too?
I'm going to start getting into things that I didn't get into earlier this post. I put it down here because it might be triggering and I didn't want anything too sensitive to be at the beginning, I want people to be able to skip this stuff for their own mental health. As mentioned earlier I wasn't able to get therapy for a bit because I didn't have a legal guardian. My mother passed when I was 11 and I've never met my biological dad. My sister I mentioned earlier is my half-sister(I call her sister cause it's easier and no matter what she's still my sister) and her dad took me in very shortly after my mother had passed(I won't be calling him my stepdad, once again because it's easier to just say dad and no matter what he's still my dad, no matter what grudges I have against him) Anyways I didn't have a legal guardian for 6 years, finally getting adopted in January. I had no insurance as well(Btw I don't blame my dad for any of this, he kept getting scammed by the shitty lawyer. So yeah I couldn't get therapy and well I learned how to repress my feelings because of my dad, because y'know he can throw tantrums and be angry and cry all he wants but god forbid someone else is angry or sad. Looking back at it though, mom played a part as well, she just neglected me and didn't give a shit and I learned that no one cares about me.
On a lighter note because gosh I need it. I don't plan on going until I get out all or most of my stories! But my stories have a lot of morbid themes and concepts. One because me too, but I still think it's important to touch on things I haven't been through because others might have and it's a morbid world. I want those people who feel alone in this world to feel seen and heard. Abuse does happen, death happens, suicide is very real, hate crimes happen every day and yet I feel people don't talk about it as much as they should. Like sure the topic will blow up, but after like a couple weeks or months, boom it's forgotten and that's just...wrong. I plan on making it very clear that the topics I write about in my stories are not meant to idolize or romanticize these topics or to make jokes at them, it's just that messed up things do happen. I know how it feels to be and feel alone, like no one will ever understand what you've been through, and I want my stories to be some kind of comfort for those people. I'll put clear disclaimers and tw's on my games and stories so those who don't want to witness that stuff can avoid it. I understand that as well! Like yeah the world is messed up but I already go through that and I don't want to see it in media and stuff, I've definitely been there too. I think I want my games to encourage people who might be struggling to not give up though! You see these characters go through something tough but they're still alive and they get there happy ending(Though not all of my stories have happy endings)
Anyways yeah that's me and what's been happening, sorry for the long post and venting. I'm still working on asks when I find the motivation to and I did make some progress on them a day or two ago. I hope I can get out of this slump and come back better then ever. If any of you are struggling with anything mentioned above, I hope you're able to get help, please don't give up, you're important! Once again thank you all for being patient with me and for supporting me still! I love you all!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

Matthew Bellamy X Reader 🇺🇸
Tumblr media
As you cleaned your guitar, you felt a sense of peace, almost as if you were reconnecting with your essence. Music had always been your refuge, and this particular instrument carried so many memories of shows, rehearsals, and solitary moments of inspiration. The bright red of the guitar reflected the soft lights of the room, and you allowed yourself a brief smile as you admired its shine.
Then, your phone buzzed beside you. The message was from Dominic Howard, your best friend and the drummer of Muse. Concern jumped from the words he sent you.
“Hey, are you okay? I need to talk to you urgently. It’s about Matt.”
Matthew Bellamy, the band’s vocalist and also your close friend, had always been a complex soul, with the brilliant mind of a musical genius and the sensitive heart of someone who feels everything deeply. Reading the message made your heart race.
“What happened to him?” you replied, already feeling a mix of anguish and worry.
Dominic’s response was quick and straightforward: “He’s really not well. His girlfriend broke up with him, and he found out she was cheating. He’s devastated, doesn’t want to talk to anyone. You need to go see him. He needs you.”
Your breath hitched as you read that. How could someone hurt Matt like this? He, who was so amazing, deserved so much more. Then came that thought you had always kept buried in the back of your mind: you loved him. You loved Matt in a way you never had the courage to admit, fearing that it might ruin the special friendship you had.
“Where is he?” you typed, already gathering your things, ready to rush to him.
“At his house. Chris and I are here, but he doesn’t want to see us. Maybe he’ll talk to you. Please, come quickly.”
“I’m on my way,” you replied, stepping out the door.
As you drove to Matt’s house, your mind raced as fast as the car. He had always been a rock for you, but now he was crumbling, and all you wanted was to be there for him, to be the light he had always been for you.
When you arrived, you spotted Chris’s car parked in front. As soon as you got out, he came to meet you, wrapping you in a quick hug.
“I’m so glad you came,” he said, and you noticed the fatigue in his voice.
“How is he?” you asked, anxiety growing with every second.
“Not so good. He doesn’t want to leave his room or talk to us. Dom is in there now, but I think only you can help him.”
You nodded and followed Chris down the hallway leading to Matt’s room. From a distance, you could already see Dom standing by the door, trying, in vain, to convince Matt to open up and talk.
“Matt, please… we’re here for you. We’re your friends,” Dom said, concern evident in his voice. When he saw you, he let out a small sigh of relief and stepped away from the door.
“Maybe he’ll talk to you,” he said, giving you space to try.
You took a deep breath and gently pushed the door open. The room was shrouded in darkness; the only light came from the weak glow filtering through the window cracks. In the middle of the bed, curled up in a fetal position, was Matt, wearing the same clothes from the show the night before. The contrast between the confident, brilliant man on stage and the vulnerable figure before you was almost unbearable.
“Matt?” you called softly, your voice a whisper in the silence.
Slowly, he lifted his head, his red, swollen eyes meeting yours. Before you could say anything else, he got up and enveloped you in a tight hug, as if you were his only anchor in the world.
“I knew you’d come,” he said, sobbing, his voice choked.
“I’ll always be here for you, Matt. You know that,” you replied, stroking his hair, feeling his pain as if it were your own.
You stayed like that for a while, him crying in your arms as you tried to convey all the calm and strength he needed. Gradually, his sobbing subsided, and his breathing began to calm down. He pulled away just enough to look into your eyes.
“Thank you for coming,” he said, his voice still hoarse but more controlled.
“You don’t have to thank me. I’m your friend, and I care about you,” you responded with a gentle smile, trying to reassure him.
“You’re more than a friend,” he said, and his eyes held an intensity that took your breath away. “You’re the only person who really understands me.”
Your heart raced at those words. Did he know? Did he feel the same?
“I understand you, Matt. I know how special you are,” you said, not knowing what else to say.
He sighed and looked down. “I loved her, you know? I did everything for her, and still… she cheated on me. I don’t understand... what did I do wrong?”
“You didn’t do anything wrong, Matt. She was the one in the wrong. She didn’t know how to appreciate the amazing man you are. You have immense talent, a huge heart, and she lost the best person she could have had.”
He looked at you with a small smile, the first one you’d seen on his face since you entered the room.
“Do you really think so?” he asked, as if searching for a bit of hope.
“I’m sure of it,” you replied, your voice firm.
Suddenly, he took your hand and squeezed it, his gaze deepening. “You’ve always been so good to me… always supporting me, making me smile. You’re my light at the end of the tunnel.”
Your heart raced at that, and before you could think, Matt leaned in closer until your foreheads were touching.
“I should be with you,” he murmured, almost as if he were speaking to himself.
You widened your eyes in surprise. “What?”
“I should be with you,” he repeated, now clearer. “I’ve always felt something for you, but I was afraid of ruining what we have. Now I see I was an idiot. You’re the right person for me. You’re the one I love.”
Before you could react, he kissed you. A sweet kiss, full of tenderness and love, which took you by surprise, but within seconds, you surrendered completely. It was the kiss you had always dreamed of, and in that moment, nothing else mattered but the two of you.
“I love you,” he whispered when the kiss finally ended.
“I love you too,” you replied, your heart overflowing with happiness.
And so, in that quiet, intimate afternoon, you and Matt finally found each other, not just as friends but as souls who had always loved one another.

6, 7, 8, 15 for your new dragonborn
Dunno which set so doing all of them for Athear.
6. If they had a set of dnd dice, what would they look like? Stars and galaxies trapped in resin. Athear is a lover of the stars given her name.
6. What is their favorite childhood memory? Cuddled up with her two sisters and brother, coming up with Clutchnames for each other in the middle of the night. Athear is very fond of hers, and has mourned the fact that she’s not been called it since she became a bard and left home for good. Though just asking anyone to call her “Starshine” feels wrong so she hasn’t told a soul (yet).
6. Which companion are they platonically close with? Gale for the moment, but Karlach once I get there too. It’s early in the run and as a Dragonborn who has not had a Clan since she reached maturity, she’s got a mix of “making a New Clan” for herself but also being realistic in that not everyone is going to stay. For instance, she knows Shadowheart is leaving, as will Lae’zel, so investing too much now will only hurt later. Gale is the most friendly but also shockingly the most tight lipped about anything of consequence, which annoys Athear. Though she’s not one to really talk.
7. Do they collect anything (gems, bottles, keys, etc)? Absolutely gems. Though she’s had to sell the few they’ve found so far (and lost her previous hoard to the illithid). Once they’ve got better gear and a steady supply of food, she’ll start keeping them for herself again.
7. What circumstances led to them becoming their Class/Subclass? Athear was supposed to be a warrior. She was the biggest of the clutch, larger even than her brother, and so her youth was spent training. She didn’t love it. She did it because it was what the Clan asked for, but when she was by herself or only with her siblings, she played tunes and came up with lyrics on the spot to entertain her siblings or just herself. It was a secret. Then, just before she reached maturity, she met a human bard not terribly older than her. The woman travelled in search of great valour to record, and travelled with a group of adventurers. She told Athear that she had music in her soul, and she should embrace all it could offer. Athear wanted it like nothing else. More even than pleasing her parents and her Clan. Her siblings were the only ones who supported her (though not too openly) and so Athear left home and cast off her Clan name. She joined the bard, who became the first best friend she had in another species, and they travelled for a time while Athear was making a name for herself. Once she was set, the two split ways with a promise to see each other again someday. Athear thinks of her on occasion, and wonders what tales she’s seen since. Her subclass of College of Valour was partially inspired by her bard-mentor but also because it utilized some of the skills she learned in her youth.
7. Romantically close with? Astarion, although she’s trying to be cautious about it. She’s noticed he sort of flirts without meaning, and when she tried to respond the first time he hesitated so she played it off as a joke, which made things more awkward. She really wants to get closer to him though, and it definitely helped that he was also admiring the stars she loves.
8. If either, are they part of the Astarion/Gale book club (magic & literature) or the Wyll/Shadowheart book club (trashy romance novels)? Reading too much strains her eyesight, but she does like being read to. Oral stories are her bread and butter after all. She’s fine with either book club and really it’s a matter of who is in the mood to indulge her and read aloud.
8. Did they have any romantic and/or sexual relationships prior to their illithid adventure? If yes, who was it with and what was it like? If no, how did they feel about being single? Athear has been of an age of maturity for five years, and traveling around for nearly all of it. While she is disgusted by the common ‘horny bard’ trope, she has been around a bit if only to see what it was like. It hasn’t been with many; a human who had a thing for her scales, a Tiefling who made her actually enjoy it more than she thought, and a half-drow. She hasn’t found any love that rivals her love of music or the stars, at the moment. Athear is fine being currently single. And open to the possibility of something happening. She’s very grateful she doesn’t blush however, because Astarion’s voice can rile her up.
8. Who are they suspicious of? In general, everyone at first although she hides it with bard friendliness. Currently she’s suspicious of Shadowheart, who frankly over reacted to a single conversation with Gale. Though Gale later told her about needing magic artifacts to feed on and that’s also suspicious. Athear wonders if EVERYONE in her party (new clan) has some big terrible secret.
15. What is the description of their camp clothes in the inventory menu? (I’ll get back to this, I admit I haven’t read it…)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
15. What motivates them to either embrace or resist the tadpole? Having the power to get what she wants without lifting a claw is addictive. But if it means sacrificing her identity as a Dragonborn she doesn’t want it. She’s already given up her Clan, she can’t bare the thought of losing another piece of herself.
15. What NPC do they like? Which one do they dislike? She is fond of the Tiefling Blacksmith, Dammon. He’s level headed, reliable, and may look a bit like the Tiefling she is most fond of in her memories of the handful of one-night stands.

I’m calling myself out as well lmao dw
Question for the au: would anyone find out about ash dancing habit and if so how would they react? (I can see Brock finding out but idk) -🔶
Brock doesn’t actually find out surprisingly. The club scene in general isn’t his idea and he doesn’t go to local dance studios either as he doesn’t dance himself. Ash doesn’t like showing off in front of his traveling companions because he gets this gut feeling they’ll ask to many questions or brag about it to almost everyone they meet in some way. Like an anxiety thing instead of being pompous about it.
Dawn finds out about it because she decided to take a dance lesson a local club was hosting for her contest, it included their Pokémon partner so Dawn was getting inspiration from it. Brock and Ash went to do their own thing as they had wanted to just take a ‘me’ day as well. She ended up seeing Ash in another room like across the hallway from where her lesson was being held.
Rap and all sort of other music would change frequently in the room but she caught Ash going through a free style run to a Unovian pop song and him and his partner was really in sync. She stopped and watched in amazement with Piplup how Ash barely even sweat as he did all these crazy dance moves across the whole floor while the few other people with them were hyping him and his dance partner up. She ended up missing her lesson just to watch Ash, secretly because she’s just like that. 
Trip was the next to find out. Surprisingly going to the gym to work out himself and spotting Ash and Burgh of all people in a studio that was by the rack he was setting up at. He tried to ignore it but soon the two’s movements caught his eye. It was a mix of freestyle and ballet and honestly one of the coolest things Trip has seen in a while, though he’ll take it to the grave.
Trip had switched to a treadmill after a couple of minutes, not even finishing his set on the rack, because he couldn’t keep his eyes off the two. He could hear what Burgh was telling Ash though he could barley hear the music from the very sound proof room and the window pains shook just noticeably. He also didn’t know just how flexible Ash was at the moment.
Ash had joined a salsa/tango class in Kalos for the bell of it, after returning to Lumiose city with the gang and going off to get a breather from them, and he was surprisingly paired with Malva. He was new to the class and everyone else wasn’t so the instructor wanted to see where his skill lie. It was also the first time he met Lysandre but Ash didn’t know it at the time as the man looked nothing like the evil asshole during the Kalos Crisis. It wasn’t until later that Ash made the connection between the two.
Alola is rich with dance and music so the entire class knew about Ash’s like of performance, though not nearly the entire extent of it, so they were more then happy to try and teach him. Kukui even made it as a little class bonding event during school hours and a project for each student to learn one specific dance and try and teach it to Ash during the week.
The Professor, and Burnet later down the road, took to teaching Ash the slower dance’s. Kind of like a wind down method after a hard week or a particularly stressful day. Sometimes they didn’t even do Alolan dances, sometimes just having their own dance battles down at the beach and making fun of each other. Hau was on a mission to teach Ash more of the strict traditional dances before he left.
Gou and Chloe don’t know about Ash’s hobby, though their catching on to their friends disappearance act that he does every couple of times every week. Since he’s stationed in a well known town Ash is able to go to a lot more spots to freestyle with people and actually make connections that way.
They do catch him in the future though on a particularly rowdy night. A festival held in the honor of Mew and everyone was wearing mask’s and clothing both traditional and not to Kanto’s culture. A sort of dance mob surrounded the middle park of the city and Ash was in the direct center of it all, dressed as Lugia in non traditional clothing with his own painted mask that flowed in the dark. Other friends from his dance endeavors had joined him that night to do what they always do, this time in the midst of the public and giving out a free show to everyone, and they all made their clothes glow in the night sky.
The park they chose was gorgeous, street lamps weren’t on and instead lanterns and fairy lights strung from the tree’s. A gazebo located behind them and was used during all the coordinated dancing they did. Much like those dancing movies when that finally scene happens or something like that.
Goh and Chloe knew it was Ash by the sound of his voice and were openly surprised, like jaw to the floor, as Ash took charge of most of the group dancing. Being the center of attention for a good chunk but not the majority of the night, more so than anyone else in the group though, and he radiated confidence and cockiness through his motions. Definitely because of the veil and security of the mask in his face.

thank you @sun-lt and @dahliaaz for tagging me in this!
here are my top albums of 2022!✨ (some of them were released in 2022, and some weren’t but i discovered them in 2022, so i hope that still counts!)
Tumblr media
i tag @pop-punklouis, @sweetest-devotion , @itslottiehere, @dragmedown, @becauseheartsgetbroken-hs, @allmylouv and anyone else who wants to do it! (no obligations! ✨❣️)
harry’s house - harry styles
the album that was the soundtrack to my summer. from going from listening every single day to hearing my favourites from the album live in a few months felt incredible. I haven’t stopped listening since it’s been released. i’ve had it blaring from the speakers any chance i can get at home, and i always go to listen to it as soon as i open spotify. i didn’t know what to expect when we had as it was as the only single leading up to it, but it exceeded all my expectations! it felt like he had the most fun with this album, and he wanted us to have as much fun as he did with it and i can’t not be in a good mood when listening to every song. he amazes me every single time with his work, and i think it will always be constantly on my ‘on repeat’ spotify playlist.
faith in the future - louis tomlinson
the best album to close my year off with! i was really curious to see what the entire album would sound like considering he kept saying this was the music he always wanted to make, and i wanted to see what he has always been working towards. if this is the music he’s always wanted to make, then i am fully on board and will continue to fall in love with his work. it was a mix of songs that each told their own story, and made you relate moments of your own life to the memories he’s singing about. i can’t wait to see this live.
the car - arctic monkeys
i wasn’t a huge fan of arctic monkeys’ last release, so i wasn’t too excited about the car but i decided to pre order the vinyl anyway just to go out on a whim! i think it’s definitely one of my favourite AM albums, and i kind of wish i’d bought tickets for their next tour since listening to it a few times.
doomsday - lizzy mcalphine
my third most played artist on my spotify wrapped behind harry and louis. i fell in love with give me a minute during lockdown, so i was excited to see what else she was releasing! it did take me a while after the album was released to actually listen to it, but every song i love. i have it as my ‘wfh concentration album’ and it’s very mellow and just perfect. her voice is incredible, and i wish she was touring more local to me i’d love to see her!
stick season - noah katan
very late to the game with this one but i fell in love with it from the get go! i feel very calm and chill when i’m listening to this album, and like i just need to listen to it when i’m sitting on a bench somewhere and looking at the world pass me by. it makes you think a lot about your own memories when listening, and i had goosebumps listening to a few! it kind of reminds me a bit of mumford and sons, and i love them a lot.
take time - giveon
this is a 2020 album so i’m very very late to this one! i saw the performance he did of heartbreak anniversary at wireless festival this year and fell in love with it, so i immediately had to see what else he’d released. a lot of his songs have been good to listen to when i was writing (or trying to write) and the storytelling of his music kind of inspired a few stories of mine.
(i would have followed you) - delaney bailey
the best album to listen to when i just need to cry. the most angelic voice i’ve ever heard, and a bad album to listen to when it’s like 3am and you are overthinking everything that’s ever happened in your life. my heart broke 100 times over with every song and i loved every second of it.
emails i can’t send - sabrina carpenter
i haven’t listened to sabrina since 2018 when she released singular act one, so i was going into this with a four year break almost. i really really liked it! it feels like the kind of album you’d listen to when you were on a late night drive with your friends just blaring out the songs. that was the energy i got from it and you always ALWAYS need an album like that in your life.
the otherside - cam
for some reason, i’ve only listened to changes that harry wrote since 2020, but never the entire album that came along with it! i’m secretly a fan of country (not all country but a fair bit i like!) and this just felt like the right amount for me to enjoy! she reminds me a bit of old dolly parton (especially with the song diane) and i feel like my grandad would have really really loved her, and that is always a winner for me.
