Dungeon Meshi Modern AU Important Laios Thought:

Okay so Laios would definitely get into a fist fight with Undertale creator Toby Fox right, actually not even going to put a question mark after right because I know I'm right. Laios would be introduced to Undertale as soon as it comes out because Falin backed the kickstarter and had been gushing to her brother about it's fun concept for an RPG where you don't have to kill any monsters. Laios then plays Undertale and slowly grows to hate it, because the promise of monsters actually just turned out to be a bunch of weirdly shaped humans who could be killed more easily. He keeps playing to try and connect with Falin about it but when he reaches the pacifist ending on his 9th playthrough he flips his desk when Flowey becomes a GoatMAN, and thus resolves to beat-up Toby Fox. Thankfully tracking him down is easy because in the modern AU Marcille has a new magic spell called "Hacking into people's computers", which she agreed to do if Laios would stop drawing her as a furry or a dubious little creature and would instead draw a picture of her fish Sky. When Laios gets to Toby Fox's house he bangs at the door, but instead of Toby Fox walking out he is first met with a tired looking man wearing a carefully knitted sweater saying "I LOVE MY CHILD, KID ICARUS UPRISING FOR THE NINTENDO 3DS" on it. He walks over to his care and peacefully drives away. Since Laios didn't care about this man he kept looking at the door. After 5 of gods own minutes Toby Fox trotted out to greet him. As Toby Fox appeared in the form of a small white dog Laios thought he had the upper hand with his animal knowledge, however Toby Fox is simply a human in the form of a dog and quickly dislodged a vinyl record from the wall with a piece of tape that had text written on it saying "TOBY FOX'S ROCK OPERA" and hit Laios over the head like he was Alex YIIK and knocked Laios the hell out. Afterwards whenever Undertale was brought up around Laios he would say "I bet if I could code I'd make a game called "Eatertale" and it would be much more realistic". This would continue on for years until one day when Izutsumi is google searching for JPEGs of Fish on Laios laptop when her paw pads don't work well on the trackpad, leading swiping her hand too fast over the thing and accidently pressing the windows key and seeing all of Laios tabs. On multiple of them is beautiful sprite work with various titled but all containing the phrase "DELTARUNE WIP" attached to them.

Izutsumi doesn't really care about Laios' artwork so she doesn't end up telling anybody.

A few more years pass and everyone finds out due to Kabru sending everyone a group text from the hospital because while he was reading the Deltarune credits for fun he saw Laios' name in the credits under the artists section and had his legs kick so fast as a reaction it broke his desk and sent him and his chair careening towards the floor.

[alto-tenure]

okay, i promptly passed out for several hours after writing my followup on that post, and then i had to go do the research to understand why you would make such a comparison. but now i'm back.

first of all: really cool musical! thanks for telling me about this album, i might have to download it and make a cd.

second of all: beside the main point here, but ahrima is so masked gentleman randall coded. i love it.

third of all: JESUS CHRIST HOW DARE--

ahem. once upon a time i was seated firmly in the camp that des is the one (1) eligible bachelor who wouldn't take any interest in claire, and the friendship and familial potential there is far more compelling than shoving another suitor in claire's face. alas, once upon a time i was also blissfully unaware of razia's shadow and the story of adakias and anhura.

the falling instantly and madly at first sight. the mutual ambition to break free from the chains of the past and achieve something greater than themselves. the scorn and concern of everyone else who doubts they're perfectly right for each other the way they think they are. the fact that staying together will probably kill them both, and they're too blinded by desire to care.

you're completely right about this comparison and it's so horrible. i still value their friendship a lot but i'm never going to be able to unthink how awful it can truly be now. (<- practically dancing with glee over the angst potential)

also i'm sorry if this means you need a desclaire tag now can we still be friends

you could have just ASKED me I would have been happy to tell you about the niche rock opera mostly well known among people who are either in pretty deep with alternative bands popular in the late 2000s or warrior cats fans of which I am both so

Ahrima and Randall are suuuuuuch Icarus figures and then you have the manipulation of that ambition...Descole as the spider on Randall's shoulder, tearing down what's been built in Randall's name...yeah!!

see, uh. it's been a while since I was taking in the narrative (I have the album saved in my likes and shuffle really likes Genesis and Holy the Sea in particular for whatever reason). I was thinking of Pallas (I mixed up their names) and how for me Claire and Des can only really interact if Hershel is out of the picture in some way. and like Hershel as the one who believes in the inherent goodness of humanity while Des is the one who wants to turn away from it and isolate...and him and Claire both having Hershel in common even though Hershel is gone...

Confessions of a Recovering Genrephobic 4/27/24

Hey Whores,

This week I went on a trip!

I drove in a square across my beautiful state and then spent an entire day with an incredible cute boy who looks kinda like a mexican Adam Scott so theres that.

We had fun I really like him. And in a me being healthy boy I also hung out with other friends in other towns, and saw beautiful things, went to beautiful places, and also learned alot about local history and can I say I'm really sorry the various native american tribes that had to deal with our white asses.

Anyway the hours of driving gave me a reason to listen to music. So yaayayayayayayaya.

Only Just Beginning (2004) - Jason Webley

Genre: Folk Length: 51:58 (10 Tracks)

Another Jason Webley album.

Sing For Your Lives! (2011) - Vagabond Opera

Genre: Various (will Explain) Length: 58:17 (11 Songs)

oh how to discribe Vagabond Opera. Much like This way to the Egress, VO is one of those bands that is stylisticly steampunk, but includes a variety of older genre sound such as caberet, circus, klezmer, and other various folk styles. (oh an opera forgot about that) I wouldn't think that it would be *incorrect* to label this as dark caberet but understand that its dark in the same way that zoey boekbinder is.

heres a sample.

Tapestry (1971) - Carole King

Genre: Soft Rock, Pop Length: 44:31 (12 Tracks)

You Light Up My Life (1977) - Debby Boone

Genre: Pop Length: 38:12 (12 Tracks)

No not that other album with the exact name.

Overall this and the last album was nice? It had that kind of soft 70s pop sound from back then and its not for me. Enough said.

Black Sabbath (1970) - Black Sabbath

Genre: Heavy Metal Length: 38:08 (7 Tracks)

When The Moon Was Hungry (2007) - The Romanovs

Genre: Dark Caberet, Goth Rock Length: 43:49 (10 Tracks)

ok first baby dolls you have to hear this song.

God isn't that so good. Its gothic, its so clearly dark cabernet, and its just a hot ass song. Honestly I kinda understand why I was so obsessed with The Last Dinner Party a couple months back.

The actually history of this album is interesting. Its essentially a one-off project by the singer and a few of her friends and they only released this one album. Its also not on spotify and most sources are pretty confused on the track listings. Essentially there is no official digital version of this album online everything you can find is a fan recreation.

I love how I keep falling in love with partially lost media essential. Banger album I need to listen to more goth music.

To the stars.

One of my more ambitious projects. It was a challenge at every stage (especially the three point perspective in a circle xD) but I'm really proud of how it came out.

Because this is really detailed and a lot of it barely shows in the final picture, some progress stages.

"Love Lessons": Charlotte Lansman's Odyssey of Heart Like a tempest in a celestial teacup, Charlotte Lansman's "Love Lessons" is the ambrosia-fueled odyssey to the heart's darkest chambers and back. This siren of soul, with vocal cords spun from smoky silk and twilight longing, delves deep into love’s labyrinthine arcade—her notes caressing each twist like Icarus' feathered tips grazing sun-drenched hopes. https://open.spotify.com/track/75rOmTab9K5TZ7YLq7bHGJ Adrift on waves of jazz-infused yearning, "Love Lessons" births itself from the forgotten embers of past liaisons—a phoenix risen not just to soar but to scorch the parchment skies of retrospection. The track waltzes through time-swirled folk whispers while strutting upon rock-tinged bravados; every beat a pulse in pop culture’s palpitating heart. [caption id="attachment_55190" align="alignnone" width="2000"] "Love Lessons": Charlotte Lansman's Odyssey of Heart[/caption] Lansman's voice—a medley painted with deep blues and greys on an audacious canvas—renders souls vulnerable and shields threadbare against her melodic siege. With Rodwell at production's helm, they forge this Retro Soul anthem like Hephaestus crafting thunderbolts for Olympus—it crackles with electric wisdom amidst warm vinyl grooves. When "Still Searching" promises more episodes within this opera of oscillation, we stand eager candidates schooled inadequately by these already imparting lessons—an audience blissfully unprepared marinating in antsy anticipation. Herein lies Charlotte Lansman: part poetess-prophetess fabricating reveries that creep into marrow—the wrong people could never taste so achingly right. Follow Charlotte Lansman on Website, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

thank you for the tag!

Yes, I definitely have a few of these things)

1. Read and write I can’t imagine myself without books, my favorite fandoms, fanfiction, interesting stories, but I also really like to analyze all this and write a lot about it 😁

2. Animals. I love animals very much, they are amazing creatures that make our lives better

3.Musicals

I am a musical lover and am forever in love with the wonderful world of musicals, theatrical musical productions and rock operas. I find a special charm in the way the musical combines various elements of the arts, advancing the story through dance, poetry, songs, music, special effects... I love it. My favorite musicals: The Count of Monte Cristo, Cats, Notre Dame de Paris, The Last Trial, Icarus, Viy, The Legend of King Arthur

4. Drawing

It always made me happy. Drawing allows me to calm down, give shape to my feelings, reflect or draw a couple of funny sketches with my favorite characters that will cheer me and others up)

5. Special fandoms. I have special fandoms that have stuck with me. They shaped some of my values, gave me the warmth that I so needed at certain periods of my life, as well as the basis for reflection and rethinking myself (this includes Cobra Kai!)

English Translation under the divider.

THE PERFECT WORLD

Lea: Icarus, I don't want to interrupt you, but in an hour the award ceremony begins.

ICARUS: Lia, you know how much I don't like these events…

Lea: Of course, I know. But this time they're rewarding you, dear!

ICARUS: Me? Sounds intriguing! So we have to go?

Lea: Absolutely! Come on, I've already chosen a suit for you and ordered a car. We have five minutes!

IDEAL WORLD Lea: I came up with as a child Your ideal world A world full of love Our love with you… There the purest diamond I shine in the crown - give me My ideal world! I'll be a shy kitten Clinging to your feet… I will be irresistible Jealous, obstinate, submissive - As you wish yourself! Let this world I forgot how to pray to the gods - I believe He will fall at your feet!

CHORUS: Let's create Our ideal world Let's take the main roles, After all, we deserve a happy ending! Like in an old movie Where there is only one double We are the directors of our destiny, We go into the sunset together - To an ideal world.

Or rather shadows

I'll follow you,

I'm the best portrait on your canvas… In all eras

The world of the strong calls for battle:

Go and come back -

With a shield or on a shield!

I'll be a beautiful rose

In the lapel of a jacket,

I'll be in love and passionate, playful, dangerous -

A tigress a moment before the jump!

It doesn't matter who I am,

What matters is who you become - a Hero? Or burn bridges?

CHORUS:

Let's create

Our ideal world,

Let's take the main roles, because we deserve a happy end… Let's play the final

One of the forgotten paintings,

Where, holding hands, the heroes go into the sunset -

To the ideal world!

To an ideal world! To an ideal world! Perfect world… In an ideal, in an ideal world…

( I stuck with the original translation of “ Ideal” instead of “ Perfect”. Given the source it feels more correct to use “ Ideal” but PLEASE correct if wrong. ) I also called her Lea here, it can also be Lyra.
