#icaro è libero

[sara-smind]

Dietro queste mura scende un cielo di cobalto 🏙🎶

Buonanotte 💙

[a-gremlin-for-my-thoughts]

Mi han tagliato le ali a colpi di cesoia

Per non farmi tornar di volare mai la voglia

Ma anche se sto fermo sai mi arriva il vento

Anche se sto fermo io non sono più qui dentro

Perché ho scelto di volare ancora troppo in alto

Sicuro che ogni uomo sulla terra è un santo

[youssefguedira]

Cielo di cobalto 👀👀👀👀👀

cielo di cobalto is my iron maiden joe prequel fic! also known as Nicolò Di Genova and The Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Four Hundred and Eighty Two Years. it's slow going because i like to be in a specific headspace when i write it (and all the other wips) but here is a snippet

Nicolò surfaces with a gasp, his lungs burning. The ship looms above, with the figures of Andromache and Quynh just visible leaning over the side.

They haul him back onto the deck, and the second he’s safely away from the edge he collapses, trying to catch his breath.

“I can’t see anything,” he says breathlessly. “It’s too fucking dark down there - I can’t see anything.”

Neither Andromache nor Quynh respond. They know well enough how difficult it is to see anything underwater - they’ve been down enough times themselves.

Nicolò manages to sit up and draws his knees up to his chest, resting his forehead on top of them. His clothes are soaked through, and every movement feels heavy after so long underwater. His head is spinning from the sudden rush of oxygen. He closes his eyes.

It’s been seventy-three years.

Read too many fics while listening to “Icaro è libero” by Mahmood and now I associate that song with Chris from the Dark Future.

[devil-changmin]

Still cannot believe people literally walk this earth not knowing that Icaro è Libero by Mahmood is out there being the most poetic and beautiful modern rumination on the Icarus tale, like it’s queer, political, thoughtful, and so beautifully written and people are just not listening to it at a constant rate and I am sorry for them

[lucassxxe]

pensavo a dedalo che per suo figlio raccolse migliaia di piume di uccelli marini che svolazzavano nel labirinto in cui erano rinchiusi, solo per donare delle ali ad icaro e renderlo libero

poi penso a mio padre, che per me non è riuscito neppure a lasciare l’alcol in bottiglia.

OC SONG TAG

i was tagged by @nuclearstorms and @arklay thank you so much both of you mwah ♡

many already got tagged and since i don’t wanna bother everyone again i’m tagging whoever wants to do this!! literally do this, have fun and say i tagged you :3

step 1 ∶ create your oc (or ocs) in this picrew (i cheated on this one and didn’t do the picrew jsdhjhd) step 2 ∶ list 5 songs that inspired (or captured the feel of) your oc. if you choose multiple, feel free to pick your favourite or do songs for all of them! (feel free to list fewer or more songs if you want)

VESPER MOXLEY

Sacrifice - The Weeknd

i was born in a city | where the winter nights don't ever sleep | so this life's always with me | the ice inside my veins will never bleed

In your eyes - Jessie Ware

you were here before, then you go away | but i never left, i feel just the same | what i wanna know, did something change? | 'cause i can hardly breathe | i'm feeling like i wanna be free | from feeling this pleasure and the pain | but it never goes away | 'cause it's harder to see | when you're giving me every look i need | i live again | don't wanna be saved | but what i'm trying to say is that | it feels like | we've been dancing to this song all of our lives | and when you're here, i leave the world behind

Zero - Mahmood

prometto di essere più forte | perché per me sei tutto anche se | in questo mondo siamo | zero + nulla è zero se lo paragoni al cielo

(+ translation: i promise to be stronger | because to me you are everything even if | in this world we are | zero + nothing is zero if you compare it to the sky)

Little Dark Age - MGMT

breathing in the dark, lying on its side | the ruins of the day painted with a scar | and the more i straighten out, the less it wants to try | the feelings start to rot, one wink at a time

I Always Wanna Die (Sometimes) - The 1975

i bet you thought your life would change | but you're sat on a train again | your memories are sceneries | for things you said but never really meant // but your death, it won't happen to you | it happens to your family and your friends

FENIX HAYES

The End of the World - Sharon Van Etten

why does the sun go on shining? | why does the sea rush to shore? //  why do the birds go on singing? | why do the stars glow above? //  don't they know it's the end of the world? | 'cause you don't love me anymore

Better Version - Sabrina Claudio

i made the perfect you in my head | 'cause physically, you are the blueprint | but internally, god damn you're a mess | so to stay with you, i had to imagine

Inguaribile e Romantico - Ghemon

vorrei poterti offrire una versione | almeno un briciolo migliore di me | ma ormai mi hai in pugno e sai piuttosto bene | che spesso flirto con la solitudine | sto tra confini dove innalzo muri | e diffidenze a cui rimango sotto // vedi da un miglio che ripeto errori inconcepibili da fuori | tu sei il coraggio che a volte mi manca //  e in tutto questo io non ho, non ho | il buongusto di stare in silenzio

(+ translation: i wish i could offer you a version | at least a shred better than me | but by now you have me in hand and you know pretty well | that i often flirt with loneliness | i stand between borders where i build walls | and distrust that i remain under // you see me from a mile repeating inconceivable errors from the outside | you are the courage that i sometimes lack // and in all this i don't have, i don't have | the good taste of being silent)

Icaro è Libero - Mahmood

accusato giustamente di libero arbitrio | un reato che al potere da sempre fastidio | perché ho sognato di volare troppo in alto | perché ho pensato che ogni uomo sulla terra è un santo //  mi han tagliato le ali a colpi di cesoia | per non farmi tornar di volare mai la voglia | ma anche se sto fermo sai mi arriva il vento //  icaro è libero libero | nel corpo e lo spirito | icaro è libero si | e non arretra un centimetro

(+ translation: rightly accused of free will | a crime that has always been a nuisance to power | because i dreamed of flying too high | because i thought that every man on earth is a saint // they cut off my wings with shears | to never make me want to fly again | but even if i stay still you know i can feel the wind come // icarus is free free | in body and spirit | icarus is free yes | and he doesn't back away an inch)

Best Friends - The Weeknd

oh, I don't want to be responsible | for your heart if we fall | 'cause i'll get clumsy and tear it apart | i love you so, but we can't get close | you're my best friend now

[fromthefishbowl]
