#it makes me crazyyyyyy

[good-beanswrites]

My lyrics for Double!! I really loved this song and became like a thousand times more impressed by Deco27 and Natsuki Hanae after working with it for so long 😅 I chickened out of recording this one in the apartment but if anyone wants to cover it... lmk.... 👀 I can definitely put something together to help hear how the rhythms work, because I got it all to line up very nicely! (Lyrics under the cut and my little commentary in the tags)

(I’ve got you, leave it to me!)

Welcome home, it's another day, keeping things at bay, you see no change

Not a smile in this mess, you're doing your best, you say (wake up)

"Don't need a break" as you proceed to start breaking, both sleeping and waking makes you bleed

And now, reborn anew -- I'll take in on for you

Not your plan? Who gives a damn, I'm here and here is where I'll stay

It's just the two of us, nothing left to run from. You're safe now, your hero's come.

All I did was dream, is that a crime? Is that enough to name me guilty by?

"He can't be trusted, he lied," you cried. Made me out as the bad guy. But why?

Ah, I'm the one that saved you, don't you see? So tell me why the hell you cry to me!

Let me hear you revel, grateful, cling to me with "savior," "adore" -- oh, sing to me.

Welcome home, it's another day, keeping things at bay, you see no change

Too late, your limits passed. Too late, yourself has cracked (goodnight)

If you persist I'll assist with releasing, keeping your peace is why I exist

And now reborn anew -- I'll take it on for you

(Oh, hello? Mom? It’s been a while. Yeah.. well, I mean, some days are hard but I’m doing alright, don’t worry. How’ve you been? I’ll go home next time I get some time off...)

The reason I'm alive, must be making sure that you survive

"He can't be trusted, he lied," you cried. Made me out as the bad guy. But why?

All I did was dream, did you forget? Go on and forgive me, I'm no threat.

Listen to me confess, honest. Eat your words and I bet, regret

Ah, I just tried to help, tried to be strong. So tell me why the hell it's all gone wrong

Let me hear you revel, grateful, cling to me with "savior," "adore" -- don't sing me this song

Lost my memory

I'm double, it was unavoidable

Living painfully

I'm trying, as hard as possible

Tell me, tell me.

If I wasn't born, maybe this trouble --

Tell me, tell me.

It's all my fault

Garak saying "I know when to walk away" is so funny with the context of A Stitch in Time because like. yeah he does know when to walk away. and then he never does

im already writing a fic about it but hunter/prey kink goes so fucking hard with boothill. the tracking after you've fled, trying to make as much distance as you can, fully aware of the way this will inevitably end; the stalking as he prowls nearer, panic bubbling in the back of your mind, flinching at every tiny sound; the moment where you look back and catch a glimpse of him - a flash of his white hair - through the trees, and your heart surges with instinctual terror; hearing his laugh echo through the forest as he lets you run, stumbling over roots and fallen branches.

you run and run and run with every ounce of your energy, and he always stays just one step behind, the red glint of his eyes piercing through the dim light of the fading sun. you completely burn out just after darkness falls, stumbling and pressing tight against the trunk of a tree, panting so loudly that it feels deafening - and that just makes it worse, because what if you can't hear him coming? as you catch your breath, you're left in utter silence, surrounded by the dark, your eyes struggling to adjust, and you don't have a fucking clue where he is.

not until you hear his voice inches from your ear, low and gravelly. "gotcha."

you bolt like a startled deer, and you get just far enough for hope to begin to bloom in your heart - are you actually going to manage to get away?

until his lasso snaps around your ankles, sending you tumbling to the ground; his hands are on you a moment later, and that's how you really know you're fucked, in more ways than one. he could subdue you singlehandedly, you know - but he lets you fumble, lets you genuinely struggle with all your might, watching in open amusement as you desperately try to push him away, to wriggle out from under him. and when the last drop of fight has left your veins, he grabs you by the throat and pins you to the ground, easy as breathing, his eyes glowing red like hot coals.

you never stood a chance.

"time's up, lil' rabbit," he purrs, licking his pointed teeth like a starved wolf. "now you're all mine."

we were hearing dream mourning what could have been with his relationship with george like around the time he doomed he had admitted how much he’s in love with george and he was fully convinced george would marry someone else and he’d have to watch it happen :( my poor dreamie he didn’t need to put himself through that because george is just as is love with him and will always be, george never wanted to marry anyone but him

I'm going to cry so hard Please don't say this to me.

OK like the Fili milk scene. Thorin there in the background always made me lol bc I was picturing him being kind of grossed out like one of those people who find plain milk disgusting but if milk is really difficult to get to get and impossible to store what if Thorin is watching Fili drink milk (one of his favorite foods, a treat he used to only get on his birthday) and feeling like. Shame. Guilt. For not being able to give his family more in Ered Luin. And also a renewed determination to give Fili a better future, one where he’ll someday be King. And get all the milk and butter he wants. What if. What if. 🤔

YEAH WHAT IF. WHAT IF THAT YEAH. WHAT IF🫨

this is also crazy cuz i been talking to @oatmilktruther this weekend about thorin really struggling with feeling like he's earned certain comforts and really harming himself because he's holding himself to Impossibly High Standards. so on top of him finding plain milk disgusting (hilarious, adopted as hc immediately💀) i think also he might see that luxury and be like. "Fili should be able to have this every day. Until I can provide this I, of course, don't deserve dairy at all" And maybe not even then😵‍💫what if

Genesis and Angeal childhood friends dynamic save me…save me gengeal childhood friends…they’re cut from the same cloth literally by alien cells and have been connected since literally before they were born! Of course they find each other a few years later and become instant besties, inseparable! They’re both so different and yet so similar at heart—they’re both obsessed with the ideas of heroes and honor, with those things driving their characters!! They seem so different outwardly but one does not know a person for that long without becoming a bit more like each other, and really there’s so many similarities in their personalities if you read between the linessss I LOVE THEMMM

Imagine—they’re both from the same incredibly obscure country hometown. They have the same accents. Then they upend their lives and take it all to the wild chaos-center that is Midgar. Angeal misses home often, misses his mother especially, but he can go to Genesis and listen to him speak and get that little hint of home amidst the storm (and he actually likes to hear Genesis talk which makes Genesis feel loved which aaaaaaaaa)! Genesis likes to pretend he’s a through and through city boy but he’s so obsessed with those apples that that cannot be entirely the truth—he needs a rock amidst the tempest of his life and personality and Angeal is that!!! The steady mooring line tethering him to what he loves!!!! Angeal being the one who has known Genesis for so long and knows how he ticks and being like the only person that knows how to bring calm to the storm!!!!!!

the fact that oscar and bryce are each other's season 1/2 contestant parallels makes me insane and i think more people should talk about it

we know the most about bryce and get a good chunk of interaction with oscar too (even if it's still pretty short), which makes things easier to compare. but also it makes you look and go "wow! these guys couldn't be any more different!"

and they are different! but they have a lot in common too! and no, oscar isn't just "bryce but not depressed" either, because we see bryce in the middle of recovery (when he's happier) and he's different from oscar!

they both:

have substance abuse issues (alcohol vs weed. yes, it was probably just included because "haha weed funny", but you can use it irresponsibly, as you can anything else)

ignore/pretend traumatic events didn't happen (thinking ONE was a dream)

had major personal losses (not quite the same, but oscar losing his home vs bryce losing his sister)

are annoying to be around/are shitty at having friends. none of bryce's coworkers like him and literally the only other guy at the homeless shelter we interact with wishes oscar would stop

don't really have a purpose in life. bryce is obvious, we get a whole montage about how he's not doing anything worthwhile/actively not caring if he's in danger (drunk driving), but oscar is more reading between the lines. he's homeless, obviously, but like… for how long? it's canon airy updates the database, but we don't know if he would for oscar specifically anymore since he's not in the active competition. so he's either been homeless this whole time, or it happened more recently, but it's still been a while. he is entirely too ready to be kicked out when he's talked to and he knows the other shelters enough to have a preference. what is he… doing? besides getting high all day? does he have a plan to do anything else at all? it doesn't seem like it! like how bryce was just going to work and then drinking the rest of the night!

You’re looking for something— no, someone, too, aren’t you?

the main problem other than my country (NOT AMERICA🇭🇺) being a corrupt fascist shithole is that if i stay in the same place doing the same thing for too long i start going insane like just the idea of having to do another year of uni makes me want to gnaw at the bars of my cage that doesn't exist. slow tigers chasing me etc. but like 1) i need a degree 2) i need to get out of the country asap 3) having a degree would help me to/when i get out 4) i cannot bear the thought of buckling down and doing my work til mid 2026 like oh my.god. taking a gap year is definitely helping i literally only spent like 2 weeks of this semester in my house but like i need my entire life to be like that not just a few months of it. maybe i should work as a steward on a plane or smtg i dont KNOWW
