TBOSAS on Crack short take (64)

*How Dr. Gaul’s Reaping Day Speech went*

Coryo: *enters Heavensbee Hall* Ugh. I’m tired.😞 I should’ve waited for Seji Pie’s car to pick me up.

Clemensia: Snowy! Snowy, over here!

Festus: Coryo, my bro, they’re serving posca today!

Coryo: Free posca?🥹

Festus: Yeah! Free posca!

Felix: And a scandalously tasting lamb!

Coryo: Nice! Let me just grab a plate real quick.

Lysistrata: No need! You can have my plate instead.😊

Coryo: Thank you, Lizzie. You’re the best.

Lysistrata: Of course I am.

Felix: Try the lamb stew first. It’s really delicious.

Coryo: Well, don’t mind if I do-

Clemensia: Bestie, are you sweating right now?

Coryo: Yeah.

Clemensia: Did you walk from your place to school again?

Coryo: Unfortunately.

Festus: I thought you and your darling boyfriend decided to take his car to school today?

Coryo: I thought so too. However, Strabo Plinth happened.

Felix: Did your Seji Pie stood you up because of his scheming father?

Coryo: No, not really. Ma called me earlier and said that her two beloved idiots were having another shouting match about the Hunger Games again.

Festus: Why though?

Clemensia: Its Reaping Day, you child.🙄

Festus: Reaping Day?! That’s today?!

Clemensia: Obviously.

Festus: But I thought today was Flower Power Friendship Day!

Coryo: ✨FPFD✨ was last month, Creed!

Festus: Oh. My mistake. Now I feel bad for wearing my glow in the dark sunflower suit for this solemn event.😞

Coryo: Well, at least you’re not wearing your blinding mirrorball suit like last time.

Festus: To be fair, I thought we were celebrating ✨Glitter Glam Dance Dance Baby Day✨, and not Highbottom’s Killer Kids Game.

Felix: But seriously, Creed, stop wearing your weird suits every Reaping Day. People might think that you’re being undeniably churlish and disrespectful.

Festus: Fine! But no promises.

Androcles: At least you’re not wearing inappropriate short shorts like Heavensbee-

Hilarius: My Reaping Day short shorts are classy and iconic, Andie! They even make my long luscious legs look fabulous.

Androcles: I disagree.

Hilarius: But-

Urban: Honestly, Hilari, Anderson is right. Your Reaping Day short shorts just make you look like a stupid kinky whor-

Lysistrata: Watch your profanities, Ban Ban.

Urban: You’re not my mom!

Lysistrata: Thank Panem for that.

Hilarius: My short shorts are beautiful!

Androcles: Doubt.

Coryo: *sighs* I wish my Seji Pie was here right now-

Sejanus: *suddenly appears and hugs Coryo from behind* My love, I’m finally here!

Coryo: What’s wrong, Babe? Why are you crying?

Sejanus: You have to help me fight my evil old man again!😭

Coryo: Fine. Let’s go.

Felix: May the odds be ever in your favor, brother.

Coryo: Thanks. *walks away to confront Strabo with a crying Sejanus*

Lysistrata: Poor Sejanus. He’s going to make a scene again, isn’t he.😔

Clemensia: I hope not.

Felix: But he probably will.

Hilarius: I’ll bet 50 bucks that he’ll throw his chair at our poor innocent screen again.

Festus: Like last year’s Hunger Games?

Dennis: Lol. Last year was wild.

Androcles: Last year was awful.

Urban: What do you mean by awful Last time I checked, we don’t watch the Hunger Games.

Felix: True. We have agreed to stop watching Highbottom’s Killer Kids Game for good because of poor Coryo’s mental and “feral” breakdowns.

Urban: Don’t forget about Apollo Ring’s endless crying and crazy Monty’s death screams.

Androcles: Of course I know that, Ban Ban. We all know that.

Dennis: To be fair, the blood and gore will only trigger our irreversible war traumas again.

Androcles: But that still didn’t stop rich boy Sejanus Plinth from throwing his chair at the screen last year.

Felix: He also threw mine.😢

Dennis: And mine.

Clemensia: Well, unlike the rest of you, I’m the only one who doesn’t have an irreversible war trauma-

Dennis: Yet. You don’t have one yet! But someday, you will!😀

Androcles: Eventually.

Dennis: Definitely.

Clemensia: Is that a threat?

Dennis: No. I just have a strong feeling that this year, you’ll finally develop one that will make your boring life more interesting-

Androcles: Just like the rest of us!

Clemensia: I would rather stay normal and boring.

Dennis: Don’t you want to connect with Palmyra Monty-

Clemensia: No.

Dennis: Or understand Persephone’s crazy behavior?

Clemensia: No.

Androcles: But Percy Price is great! I mean, just look at her sniffing and asking those unlucky students over there if they stole her “delicious” Maid Stew again.

Persephone: *is running wild all over the place* Where’s my Maid Stew?! Give me my Maid Stew! Festus, my love, did you hide my precious stew?! Weewoo! Where’s my stew?! Arachne, you b*tch! Give me my stew!

Festus: Not again.😞

Arachne: I’m so calling the Peacekeepers after this.

Felix: *sighs* I just hope that this year will be peaceful and productive for everyone-

Arachne: But you.

Felix: Don’t jinx me, Crane! I’ll curse you back!

Arachne: Lol. You can try-

Felix: I hope you’ll wear an ugly neck brace for the rest of the Hunger Games!

Arachne: Ha! Like that would ever happen-

Felix: Just you wait, Crane. Just you wait!

Clemensia: Yup. I would rather stay normal.

Hilarius: So. . . Who wants to continue the betting?😊

Urban: Fine. I’ll bet 70 bucks if Plinth throws at least 2 chairs at Dr. Gaul today.

Pup: A hundred if one of those chairs “accidentally” hits Highbottom.

Hilarius: A thousand if Highbottom blames poor Coryo for not defending him against Plinth.

Pup: Hilari, I thought you said that you don’t have any money left to bet since the day that your creepy old man froze your weekly allowance for good-

Hilarius: That’s why I’m betting.

Pup: You do know that your odds of winning are pretty low, right?

Hilarius: That’s why I’m betting everything.😎

Pup: Well, good luck being homeless and penniless before this day ends.

Hilarius: I’m not homeless! I’m just temporarily displaced and having indefinite sleepovers with Festus and his pet rats!

Pup: Please don’t tell me that you’re sleeping inside Creed’s rat infested dumpster-

Festus: Heavensbee is currently sleeping in my rat infested dumpster.

Pup: How the mighty have fallen.

Hilarius: FYI, Pup, Creed’s old dumpster was cozy and comfortably-

Lysistrata: Dirty.

Gaius: Yo, can I bet too?

Coryo: *joins the group again with a now happy Sejanus* Guys, please stop betting on my boyfriend’s random outbursts and anger issues.

Urban: Why?

Coryo: He will cry.

Sejanus: I will cry.

Festus: 20 bucks if Seji Pie yells “you’re all monsters” at the teachers again.

Sejanus: Double it.

Coryo: Festus, don’t encourage him!

Festus: But I need money.

Coryo: We all need money!

Sejanus: I have money.😀

Hilarius: Can I borrow-

Sejanus: No. You’re not my Coryo.

Hilarius: Sad.😢

Prof.Sickle: Children, sit down! We’re officially starting!

Felix: But we’re still eating-

Prof.Sickle: F*ck your lamb stew! Sit down!

Felix: My Gran Gran will hear about this.

Coryo: Let’s get this over with and go home to your place, Babe.

Sejanus: Will you hold and comfort me when I cry again, my love?🥺

Coryo: Always.

Festus: Front seat! Front seat! I’ll take the front seat!

Felix: Coryo, let me sit next to you-

Lysistrata: Me first!

Hilarius: No, me!

Apollo: Weewoo! Excuse me!

Diana: Bro, share the chair!

Androcles: Scooch over, Hilari! I’m sitting next to Felix.

Persephone: Festus!

Festus: Yes, my love?

Persephone: Sit on my lap!

Festus: Really?

Persephone: Sit on my lap now!

Festus: Yes, my queen!

Hilarius: Yo, Urban, can I sit on your lap?

Urban: F*ck off, Heavensbee.

Sejanus: Coryo-

Coryo: I’m already sitting on yours, Babe.

Sejanus: I know that and I love it, my love!😍 Every bit of it! Every single minute!

Coryo: Babe-

Sejanus: You can even sit on my lap forever!

Coryo: My love-

Sejanus: And ever and ever!

Prof.Sickle: Children! Children, for the love of Panem, please act normal today!

Palmyra: Define normal-

Dr.Gaul: *enters the scene* How tantalizing to see all your shining young faces on this auspicious day-

Androcles: Is this day really auspicious?

Felix: *is still holding and eating his lamb stew* Nah. This lamb stew is more auspicious than her.

Everyone: *snickers*

Gaius: Nice one, Class Pres!

Prof.Sickle: Children, quiet!

Dr.Gaul: *glares at Felix* I am Dr. Volumnia Gaul! Your humble Head Gamemaker-

Hilarius: She ain’t humble though-

Prof.Sickle: Heavensbee!

Hilarius: Just saying.

Dr.Gaul: *glares daggers at Hilarius* In charge of the War Department and all its affiliated concerns-

Festus: *stands up and praises the heavens* Thank Panem! Thank you, Panem! She’s not in charge of the Food Department!

Prof.Sickle: Creed-

Festus: *turns around and faces the crowd* Hip hip!

Everyone: Hooray!

Festus: Hip hip!

Everyone: Hooray!🥳

Festus: Hip hip-

Prof.Sickle: Creed, sit down!

Festus: I was just-

Dr.Gaul: *suddenly throws a chalkboard eraser at Festus* As I was saying, you stupid brat!

Festus: You were saying?

Vipsania: Wow. He just said that.

Diana: Creed is so brave.

Juno: And stupid.

Domitia: Definitely.

Livia: Lol. Somebody is getting another demerit again.

Festus: And it’s not gonna be me-

Prof.Sickle: For the love of my sh*tty salary, Creed! Sit the f*ck down and shut up!

Festus:. . .

Everyone:. . .

Prof.Sickle: Dr. Gaul, please continue.

Dr.Gaul: As I was saying, I’d broken free of my laboratory today-

Coryo: That was a big mistake.

Sejanus: True.

Felix: I concur.

Dr.Gaul: What is wrong with you?!

Coryo: Sejanus, my love, she is bullying me again!

Sejanus: Felix, give me your chair!

Felix: No.

Hilarius: Don’t be a coward, Class Pres! Give him your chair!

Felix: No! Sejanus will just throw my poor innocent chair again!

Hilarius: I need money!

Sejanus: I need a chair!

Hilarius: *stands up* Here! You can have my chair!

Sejanus: Ew. No. I’m not touching that.

Hilarius: Why?!😭

Sejanus: You know why!

Hilarius: Sleeping in a dumpster for 3 straight days doesn’t mean that I’m permanently filthy!

Festus: My pet rats disagree.

Prof.Sickle: Dr. Gaul, please continue!

Dr.Gaul: To examine you!

Apollo: Me?

Dr.Gaul: Yes, you! The leaders of the next generation-

Apollo: I’m going to be a leader?

Urban: I hope not.

Dr.Gaul: *is now giving everyone her infamous death stare* I won’t be around forever after all-

Clemensia: Thank Panem.

Felix: Thank you, Panem!

Diana: Panem is good!

Gaius: All the time!

Lysistrata: Penam is good?

Apollo: All the time!

Sejanus: My pockets are full!

Coryo: All the time!

Androcles: My grades are sh*t!

Urban: All the time!

Palmyra: My cooking is good!

Everyone: No!

Prof.Sickle: *is now losing her mind* Children, please! I’m begging you! Be normal! Be f*ckin’ normal! Just for today! Dammit! Just for this f*ckin’ day! Heck! Do it for me! Do it for your favorite teacher!

Livia: She’s not my favorite-

Prof.Sickle: I really really need that f*ckin’ salary raise, you monsters!😭

Dr.Gaul:. . .

Everyone:. . .

Felix: This lamb stew still tastes scandalous though.

Io: Felix, please-

Felix: Just saying.

Dr.Gaul: Highbottom was right! I should’ve retired years ago!😩

[deardiaryts4]

Okay now that I’m all caught up. I have a few thoughts.

1. I was hoping going back to the beginning would help me understand Solomon a bit more and it did. However, not necessarily in his favor.

2. It feels like him and Shekinah ended up in a marriage of convenience but not for her but for his benefit. Perhaps he felt obligated because she is the mother of his children and wanting to live up to the legacy of his father????

3. I feel bad for Taryn but I hope she moves on. Maybe even decides to transfer to a different department. Especially since she went there with him again. Which is unfortunate because they work so well together. The entire team is a dream team of detectives.

4. I want Shekinah to be happy, however that manifests whether it be with him or someone else. Right now he’s seems a bit preoccupied with work and he’s been avoiding anything else that requires work and commitment outside of that at the moment. But I don’t think he’s a bad guy at all. Just one who does a lot of avoidance.

Anyway I’m glad I’m all caught up. It was a really easy read. I’m enjoying the story and looking forward to seeing how it all unfolds for all of them.

Side note I love me some Bushra and Mama Wolf. 💜

Hey Glam-Ma! (hope you don't mind me calling you that)

Thank you for taking the time to read everything and sorry it's taken a while to respond to your message. Now *rubs hands together* let's get into it lol.

Solomon is far from perfect and though I have not said this (and idk if I should say it now or "play it out") but what I will say is Solomon's lack of commitment stems from the dynamic his parents had. Also the pressure to be with someone he did not really want to be with.

This is a VERY good point and very close to the truth. I'am trying to use this chapter (chapter 2) to explain their history and give further clarity on why they are married and also why they do not work together.

I feel bad for Taryn but at the same time this is a grown ahh woman with so many privileges. But she is just human I guess... In the long run Taryn will eventually see the light. But for now sis is like a deer stuck in headlights u_u

I want Shekinah to be happy but her issue is she is too concerned with public opinion. She is that type of girl that will brag about her being a "wife" and being "married" even if it is all in shambles!

Yes thank you. I want to keep the story somewhat snappy, entertaining and easy to follow. Everyone is so busy and our attention is pulled every which way. I just want to make it easier for anyone coming to this corner of Simblr.

[sannin-three]

i wanna hear the sannin band au. sounds cool!

THANK YOU (AND OTHERS) FOR ASKING, I SHALL NOW RAMBLE!!

Okay so. Like in canon they've all known each other since they were young, went to the same school and became friends despite being so different. In this, the Senju clan is a bunch of highly respected musicians so Tsunade has quite the legacy to live up to. She receives classical training and even talks Grandpa Hashirama into getting lessons for her two friends (orochimaru is an orphan and Jiraiya is being raised by Ma and Pa but there's not a ton of money). However, despite being close to her family and her grandpa, she wants to do her own thing and do more contemporary music rather than classical and Oro and Jiraiya are right there with her. They start out just messing around in her garage but manage to find a sound that works for them - they dabble in different genres like metal, glam and prog rock, punk, pop, etc but with a consistent theme of always trying new stuff and pushing the boundaries of genres. Their band name is, of course, The Sannin.

At some point, after doing smaller to progressively larger gigs, they've made an underground name for themselves. At some point Hiruzen, an old friend and fan of Hashirama's, scoops them up and becomes their manager and things really take off from there.

As I mentioned in the tags of @debilmann 's art, I see Tsunade on drums, Jiraiya on guitar, and Orochimaru on bass as I feel those fit their personalities:

Drummers are often stereotyped as being kind of crazy (or dumb), but drumming itself is very difficult so I feel that fits Tsunade's brash-yet-competent style. I picture her voice being similar to Blondie. Being "The Girl" in the band she gets a lot of criticism, including people saying she only got anywhere thanks to nepotism. She also isn't afraid of showing off her body with her public and stage outfits and faces some slutshaming as a result. And it does get to her sometimes, making her question herself. At the same time though, a lot of teens and young women love her style and find her inspiring. That and being able to do what she loves makes it worth it.

Bassists can be stereotyped as being unimportant or less impressive - which is interesting because basses are instrumental (lol) in making sure the music sounds right. But there's of course major exceptions such as Sting, Geddy Lee, and others who manage to make their own mark on their band and I feel that's very in line with Orochimaru. Style wise I picture them being a goth version of Ziggy Stardust or Freddie Mercury - outlandish and gender nonconforming but with a darker aesthetic. It's the 80s and being visibly queer leads to a lot of scrutiny from the band's detractors, and Hiruzen and other execs try to get them to tone it down, but Oro refuses and both out and closeted fans are grateful for it.

Guitars are usually frontmen, which fits Jiraiya's theatrical flair - his style is in line with hair metal bands of the 80s and I believe @sourstacks and I decided his voice would be similar to Meat Loaf. He's known for being the bands wildman and a horn dog, but he's also incredibly protective of the other two. People quickly learn that saying anything negative about the other two band members will earn them Jiraiya's ire. He especially loves to fuck with people who ask rude questions during interviewers.

Interviewer: so, Orochimaru, do you have any comments to make on the allegations regarding your sexuality?

Jiraiya: Are you trying to ask him out?

Interviewer: I- no I-

Jiraiya: You just asked him what he's into, sounds like a come on to me! Who taught you journalism? Save that for after the interview man, come on, be professional!

When they go places they look like they all belong in different bands, as their styles are so different, but they fit together despite that. At some point though they start to feel like something is missing. They have guest players sometimes and enjoy adding keyboard to their sets but haven't found a keyboardist who quite fits them.

Enter Dan. Kind, soft-spoken, whose style is the epitome of a hippie. He's been soloing for a bit and Tsunade bumps into him at the studio and immediately adores his sound. She convinced the other two to give him a try and they quickly find he's just the kind of odd but nice flavor they were looking for. Fans embrace Dan's addition to the band, and once he joins some start to colloquially refer to the band as "Dannin".

Tsunade and Dan were close from the start and touring and playing together makes them grow even closer and they fall in love. Some fans thought Jiraiya and Tsunade were a thing and a few even get upset about this development, but others are happy as long as this doesn't mean the band will break up, and of course it doesn't...yet.

There is some distance though. Tsunade and Dan start doing duets where the other two feel more like background players and neither Oro nor Jira appreciate it. They start to spend less time together as a group. Jiraiya's drinking starts to get worse, and Orochimaru has been struggling with drug use. The two do their best to lean on each other but keep snapping whenever the mood starts getting too serious. And of course they're both too emotionally stunted to just talk any of this out with each other or Tsunade and Dan.

Ultimately though, despite high tensions, tragedy is what leads to the band's downfall. Dan is killed in a car accident on the way to a show, along with Sakumo, who was head of the band's security detail. They were running late because Dan went to pick up a ring that he'd planned to use to propose to Tsunade. The other band members hear the news right as they're getting ready to go on and Tsunade's scream of horror haunts everyone backstage for years to come. The tour is of course cut short and they never play live together again. They try to record some things but Tsunade is unable to play without breaking down and they can't push her.

Tsunade sells off a lot of her possessions including the apartment she and Dan shared and goes to live the life of a secluded former star. Her estate will occasi release remastered versions of her old solos but otherwise people don't hear much from her. Orochimaru gets hooked into the corporate side of the music industry, first managing bands and then labels. They trade the outlandish clothing for a suit, though still keep some of their own flair and choose to tie back rather than cut their long hair. Jiraiya is the only one who tries to stay close to the music, doing some solo work, and it's not bad but still makes people sad to watch as there's clearly something missing. At some point he gets into managing and even has something of a hit band with Minato but then the kid tragically dies along with his wife and Jiraiya becomes convinced he must be cursed.

The three still care about each other. They'll call occasionally. Orochimaru bails Jiraiya out of jail after a drunken bender, Tsunade's there when Orochimaru gets out of rehab for the heroin addiction. The love's not the same, but it's there.

Still, they spend a long time rarely interacting...until three new musicians on the scene start seeking them out. They'd been part of an up-and-coming band called Team 7 until they dissolved, now each of them is seeking guidance, desperate to reach the kind of musical skills and influence the Sannin once had. Somehow they each manage to convince the Sannin members to take them on, and now it's a long distance competition to see who can be the best mentor for these new stars.

...

So yeah! This got long as fuck, but I hope you (anon) and the others who asked about the au ( @valtiels-darkness , @olivegardenhunter , and @debilmann ) enjoyed! Please feel free to comment

Perchè Stairway to Heaven é considerata la canzone più bella?

Cara\o Anonima\o, Buon Natale.

Non sapendo se la tua è una domanda "positiva" (cioè perchè ritieni giustamente la canzone la più bella della musica rock) o "negativa" (cioè ritieni che non sia lei la migliore), ti scrivo che ne penso io.

Stairway To Heaven, scritta da Robert Plant e Jimmy Page, fa parte del leggendario quarto album dei Led Zeppelin, che non ha propriamente un titolo, ma è ricordato come IV, seguendo la numerazione dei precedenti, o Four Symbols, per i simboli che aveva in copertina a identificare i 4 componenti della storica band, disco uscito l'8 Novembre 1971. L'album è una sintesi del breve ma intensissimo percorso che la Band ebbe in meno di 2 anni, che li porta ad essere da sconosciuti a una delle più conosciute, imitate e leggendarie rock band del pianeta. Queste premesse vanno fatte perchè il brano è, secondo me, leggendario giustamente per tre motivi:

musicalmente, sintetizza il percorso, unico, che i Led Zeppelin intrapresero: partendo dal blues, stravolgendolo e avvolgendolo di un nuovo suono elettrico ed eccitante (i primi dischi I e II) virarono su una sorta di contaminazione folk elettrica (ascolta il III) trovando qui una sintesi di ispirazione tra le due, e proprio in questa canzone trovano una summa: l'intro acustico e sognante (che assomiglia tantissimo a Taurus degli Spirits, band che li accompagnò nei tour americani) che sale di energia fino all'assolo di Page, tra i più leggendari di sempre; e poi il testo, ispirato a Plant dalla lettura di Magic Arts in Celtic Britain di Lewis Spence (un poeta, letterato e occultista scozzese), ma anche dai miti folkloristici britannici, che stavano ritornando in auge grazie al folk rock e alla passione mai celata per le saghe Tolkeniane (già presenti per dire in Ramble On). Sulle qualità poi dei singoli musicisti, posso affermare che sono stabilmente nelle prime posizioni di sempre in ogni settore;

una componente di fortuna, perchè il brano, che dura 8 minuti tondi nel disco, non fu mai pensato come singolo di lancio. Ma i Deejay delle radio, ascoltando tutto il disco (come si faceva un tempo) decisero di passarla lo stesso, riscontrando il favore del pubblico; sin da subito divenne una sorta di prova del nove per tutte le band di giovani musicisti, e a testimonianza di ciò c'è il fatto che è di gran lunga lo spartito musicale più acquistato al mondo di sempre (se ne vendono 150 mila copie ancora oggi all'anno, nel 2023). Leggendario è un altro racconto: nei negozi di strumenti musicali americani è noto che si possono provare gli strumenti prima di acquistarli, e diceria vuole che dopo un po' fu affisso un cartello No Stairway, come a dire che avevano sentito così tante volte gli arpeggi che non ne potevano più. Fu peraltro decisivo il successo del disco, che nato sotto le peggiori paure della Atlantic, la casa discografica, per la decisione di non avere nessun titolo e zero pubblicità, divenne uno dei più grandi successi di sempre, con decine di milioni di copie vendute nel mondo;

c'è una componente più sottile, dire estetica: i Led Zeppelin esprimevano una musica che potremmo definire "maschia", nel senso che apparivano volutamente come semidei rappresentando una precisa idea di mascolinità: spesso a torso nudo, cascate di capelli, riferimenti sessuali espliciti (Whole Lotta Love è la trasposizione hard rock di un orgasmo) divennero iconici di una estetica hard rock di potenza sessuale, che ebbe successo soprattutto negli Stati Uniti, che la riproposero per anni trovando successo sia tra i maschi che tra le femmine; in Europa, dove pure ebbero successo strepitoso, si scontrava da un lato sull'ambiguità che il glam rock stava per portare sull'estetica del rock ( si pensi a Bowie o Lou Reed, per dare un'idea) e con la dimensione più intellettuale del progressive, che è il tentativo europeo di creare un genere "proprio", e che non era sovrapponibile a quello Zeppelin per idee, classi sociali di provenienza, tematiche, stesse tecniche musicali. Per una serie di motivi, tra cui la nascita del punk che aveva, tra gli altri, come preciso obiettivo estetico spazzare via la tecnica musicale del prog, è prevalso il modello Zeppelin\Hard Rock, anche perchè il punk negli Stati Uniti fu un movimento marginale e che aveva idee diverse da quello europeo.

Tutto questo, secondo me, ha reso giustamente leggendaria Stairway To Heaven.

Se invece mi chiedevi "negativamente" perchè lo è, partendo da quello che ti ho raccontato puoi capire che non saprei risponderti.

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 3

Starlight Accolades, here we come! In this part it's awards time, Deanna and Paris have a quick stayover, and Devin heads to set to start a new film project.

For ease of reading IF the infants are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets, otherwise it's babble. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.

Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Zia/Zio (Italian) meaning aunt/uncle Tante/Onkel (German) meaning aunt/uncle Nonna/Nonno (Italian) meaning grandfather/grandmother

Devin: Mama and mummy will be back later, you get some sleep bambinos

...

Luna: Thanks so much for doing this

Paris: No problem, it’ll be fun

Luna: They will probably just nap but if you could show them the TV when best actress is up in case Devin wins. She doesn’t think she will but I hope she does

Paris: Of course. I never figured with her confidence she’d doubt winning something

Luna: The accolades are serious business. You do have our numbers right? And the emergency ones?

Paris: Oh my gosh, Luna, get out of here! It’ll be fine, I promise

Host: Welcome one, welcome all, to the very first televised Starlight Accolades in the ChangingPlumbob universe! Being televised is not the only difference in our award show tonight. To honour our nominees we have thrown away the VIP ribbon to allow everyone to bring a plus one. What’s a star without the person who helps them shine after all. Some of our nominees are also attending virtually so stay tuned for glitz, glam and winners!

Host: We have honoured our stars in many fields tonight but it is time for stars of the silver screen!

Devin and I don’t hold our breath. She got a nomination last rotation but I don’t think it’ll hold up between rotations. Plus from my investigating it’s pretty hard to get one, I think I’ll be waiting several rotations for the bling

Host: And in our final film category, best actress, the Starlight Accolade goes to…

There is a pause for dramatic effect.

Host: Devin Villareal

Me and Devin: well that’s unexpected

The audience laughs at her reaction as she receives the award.

Devin: Thank you so much everyone! I want to say even though Melodies of the City stars me, Connor and Mina, we had a whole team behind us. You’ve already honoured Levi for his wonderful direction, he truly kept us upbeat on set.

Devin: Beyond him there was a fantastic team of producers, set dressers, editors and camera operators. I want to thank especially my team in make up and wardrobe for putting up with me. Of course no acceptance speech would be complete without a mention of those we love. Luna, amore mio, I may be standing here but I couldn’t have done it without you. You and me are the best team I will ever be a part of. Thank you ma and pa for encouraging my drama! Joey, Deanna, Kelly, thanks for putting up with your intense older sister. And to my precious bambinos, you can go back to sleep now, mama will be home soon with something shiny!

Devin takes some time to pose for photos, showing off her angles. She discovers she’s a self-assured sim (honestly on brand).

Cassandra: I’m glad she got the award, the movie is so good

Luna: Tell me about it, those songs get stuck in my head every time she sings or hums them

Cassandra: Is her next one a musical

Luna: Believe it or not, it’s a superhero flick

Cassandra: I believe it, someone always seems to be releasing a new one

Devin: Who’s ready to be put in their crib by a star actress

Alfred: Mama mummy lo lo me (love me)

Luna: I think he’s ready to tick off another milestone, let me get the camera ready

Devin: Did you wait until we got home? That’s very nice of you

Alfred: Mama mummy lo lo me vee (love me very much) *waves*

Devin: Oh, oh, I think he’s waving! Are you getting it Lu

Luna: Absolutely! We’re going to send that to nonno and nonna aren’t we schnucki

Rilian: Me eed eyet (I need night night)

Devin: Mama is here piccolo mio, let’s get you back to sleep huh

Luna: Night night Rilian, night night Alfred

Devin: *switches on lullabies* Mama and mummy love you very much

Devin: You okay De? You look uncomfortable

Deanna: Well I just don’t know how to act in the presence of an accolade winner

There’s a small silence then both women burst out laughing.

Devin: Thanks for bambino sitting

Deanna: They’re pretty cute, I may have sent ma and pa about a dozen photos

Devin: As you should, they’re clearly stars. Come on, let’s take a quick video to send them

They get the photo set up and start recording

Deanna: Tonight I have the honour of sharing space with an award winning actress, also known as…

Devin: Your daughter! We love you two

Deanna: Can I check it before you send

Devin: There’s no need, we look fabulous

Deanna: Of course we do

Devin: I mean I know I’m amazing but I didn’t think I’d get one so soon

Luna: You earned every bit of that award schatz. You are dedicated to your craft

Devin: I’m just glad I have a wife who gets that acting is a skill. You’re amazing Lu

Luna: I- thank you

Devin: Now what do you say me and you have a proper celebration

Luna: *giggles* that sounds wonderful

Devin: Bambinos, waken up. I know it’s the middle of the night but dinner was so early you must be hungry by now.

Rilian continues to snore but Alfred stretches and smiles at Devin.

Alfred: Mama I an mill (can I have milk)

Devin: You’re in luck Alfred, I have brought some milk with me

After feeding Alfred and getting him back to bed Devin scoops up Rilian. He wakes up now and is eager to finish off his bottle. Luckily both boys just had gas and Devin can go back to bed without needing a shower.

Luna gets up ready for a day of work only to discover the sink in the kitchen has broken in the night. She works on fixing it despite hating handiness. Deanna enters the room to find Paris staring at the photos on the wall.

Deanna: Buongiorno baby

Paris: What does that mean again?

Deanna: Good morning, or good afternoon, or good day

Paris: Damn, I really need to work on my Tartosiano

Deanna: Don’t worry, I’ll help you

Paris: Thanks babe

Devin: Buongiorno

Deanna: Pasta for breakfast, is that a good idea

Devin: Are you questioning an award winner?

Paris laughs while Deanna simply shakes her head.

Paris: I have been wondering Devin, what language will you use with the… bambinos

Devin: Oh, good question. Probably just a mix. Luna and I both speak Simlish to communicate to each other. But she does want to teach them Windenburgish even though I don’t speak it, and of course ma and pa would kill me if I didn’t teach them Tartosiano

Deanna: Maybe you should try learn Windenburgish. I mean we already speak two languages, would probably make it easier to pick it up

Paris: Wish I could speak more than Simlish

Deanna: In time baby

With Luna off teaching Devin spends some time with the bambinos before she has to head to set. Diaper change time does not go very well for either twin but they cheer up afterwards.

Deanna: Hey Devin, where do you keep-

Rilian: Zi Zi De (Zia Deanna)

Deanna: Ahh... is he talking to me

Devin: Sounds like it

Rilian waves at Deanna who waves back.

Deanna: Well hello to you to, have you learned to wave now?

Devin looks around for Alfred so she can feed him. He has scooted himself into the hall and is having some solo tummy time.

Devin: Piccolo mio, how about some breakfast

Alfred turns himself over to his back, looks towards Devin quizzically, then blows her a kiss!

Devin: Oh my watcher that is adorable!!! I love you to caro

Alfred: Mwah me lo (I love) mama

Devin: Mwah isn't technically a word but I don’t think mummy will mind. Can you do it for the camera so we can send her some love

Alfred: Mwah mummy

After feeding both twins Devin tries to practice crawling with them.

Devin: Rilian, can you come to mama? Come over to mama

Rilian: mama no ummy ummy (no, my tummy)

Devin: Good tummy use caro. Okay Alfred, how about you, can you come to mama

Alfred: Mama ri si (Rilian silly) *giggles*

Devin: You don’t even want to turn off your back this morning? Okay, you’re the boss I guess

Rudolphus: Congratulations on the win kiddo

Devin: Thanks. And I meant what I said, thanks for putting up with me

Rudolphus: It’s my job kid, I treat people like a canvas, you display my art

...

Devin: Hey Emily

Emily: Hmff

Devin: Could I have the costume for today please

Emily: I suppose so. It’s a bit out there for my taste

Devin: Like this hair isn’t

Emily: *chuckles* fair point. You know the drill, up on the stand

Devin: Connor? Is that you?

Connor: I swear not letting me stay brunette must be a joke to the hair and makeup department

Devin: Well at least I’m joining you on the odd coloured hair boat this time

Connor: Congrats on the win, it was deserved

Devin: Is this where I say you deserved yours to

Connor: *laughs* obviously. Okay, let’s practice this thing

Devin: Let me get my notes

The actors practice until director Levi calls for them to get on the soundstage.

Levi: ACTION

Devin: You will have to fight harder than that Sparrow if you want to protect Olympus

Connor: But Captain Sigma, why are we using laser swords? They are so antique

Devin: A true hero doesn’t even need a weapon Sparrow, this is just adding extra glam

Levi: CUT! Great job you two!

Devin: Let’s take a moment to remember-

Connor: We’re friends who don’t actually want to kill each other

Devin: Exactly

Levi: ACTION

Devin: Sparrow? What are you doing here? You’re supposed to be on patrol

Connor: I am worth more than patrol. You have had it your way for too long. There’s only room for one hero in Olympus, and it is not you Captain Sigma!

Devin: Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal

The two begin a fight scene, kicking up clouds of dust, and the battle finishes with Devin using the fake ray to paralyse Connor.

Levi: CUT! You guys had that choreography nailed

Devin: Selfie?

Connor: You’re remembering to do it before the lights are turned off, well done

Devin: Are you in shot? Say “Sigma”

La: SIGMA

Levi: Ladies, ladies… ACTION

La: I was so worried when Sparrow locked me out of the system that I had seen the last of you

Devin: Never! No matter how crazy Olympus gets, our love is my priority

Devin sweeps her co-star up in a passionate kiss.

Levi: CUT! Can I see if we got the right angles on that?

Devin breathes out, glad the gig is going well. She ends with gold level, a nice raise, and fame level lifted to a 4-star proper celebrity.

Visual Kei (V系) : My Current Hyperfixation.

I'd like to so badly talk about V系 (Visual Kei/Vkei). This subculture has been my top interest these past few months. It is SO underrated.

Context:

Visual Kei is an alternative music and fashion movement defined as flamboyant, androgynous and theatrical. The aesthetic takes influences from international and Japanese glam rock and punk rock bands.

I have just started getting into vkei. Although I am not that educated on it, I love vkei as a whole. Its fashion, the vibe it gives off, its musicians—and most importantly, its music.

Firstly, I want to talk about the FIRST EVER band that got in me into vkei: MALICE MIZER.

Malice Mizer

This band was nothing but purely majestic. The first song I heard from them was entitled, "Ma Chèrie."

MALICE MIZER was my first vkei band ever. Each and every one of their music had me ascending! The day I discovered this band was the day I found happiness.

- But sadly, they disbanded in 2001.

Here are some songs from them that I recommend:

• Aegen

• Gekka No Yasoukyoku

• Au Revoir

• Bel Air

• Gardenia

• Premier Amour

• Le Ciel

• Transylvania

Members:

Mana - Guitarist

Közi - Guitarist

Yu~ki - Bassist

Gaz - Drummer (original/first)

Tetsu - Vocalist (first)

Kami - Drummer

Gackt - Vocalist (second)

Klaha - Vocalist (last/third)

Visit: (For more context.)

Next up!

— . . Gulu Gulu

I am currently obsessed with this band. They are the first ever JROCK band I have listened to. Despite Gulu Gulu and Malice Mizer being under the same roof (vkei), Gulu Gulu features more rock and metal-like music, unlike Malice Mizer with their angelic songs.

—— Their songs portray loud music, with band vocalist—Ai—screaming his lungs out. But nonetheless, the music they make is absolutely amazing. I cannot explain my love for this band.

- But sadly, they disbanded in March 17, 2023.

Songs I recommend:

• Kaebin

• Henna Merry Go Round

• Rubra

• Living Dead End

• Akunin

• Karappo ga Chirakatta heya

• Hidarite wa Snuff Film

Members:

Ai - Vocalist

Hotaru - Drummer

Lanju - Bassist

Rito - Guitarist

Kazari - (ex-member, Guitarist)

Visit: https://vk.gy/artists/gulu-gulu/

(for more context)

DADAROMA

Dadaroma was the 2nd band I discovered right after Gulu Gulu, and I realized that their music was a bit similar. Specifically, the vocalists' voice. Ai from Gulu Gulu and Yoshiatsu from Dadaroma both captivated me with their amazing voices.

My love for this band is actually insane. Their visuals are stunning and crazed, plus their music makes me feel so lively.

- But sadly, they disbanded in March 2020.

Song I recommend:

• Risley Circus

• POINT OF NO RETURN

• MONEY

• Mr. Terrorman

Members:

Yoshiatsu - Vocalist

Takashi - Guitarist

Tomo - Bassist

Ryohei - Drummer

Visit: (for more context)

JILUKA

JILUKA is such a talented and wonderful band. I recommend this band to people who listen to heavy metal. Despite their ethereal looks, the band makes such crazy music which is why I love them. They were the first band to get me into metal + the band men are so pretty and kind.

I would LOVE to go to a JILUKA concert someday.

- JILUKA has been active since 2013.

Songs I recommend:

• S4VAGE

• VENΦM

• BLVCK

• BaLa-DeDa

• Bloodshot

Members:

Ricko - Vocalist

Sena - Guitarist

Boogie - Bassist

Zyean - Drummer

Visit: (for more context.)

A lot of vkei fans will probably say that the bands I put here are all overrated and that I'm a 'poser' or whatever, but don't think like that.

I know more bands than just JILUKA, Gulu Gulu, Malice Mizer and Dadaroma.

For instance, I listen to Ashmaze, BUCK-TICK, Mejibray, KAKUMAY & Dir en grey. I know a bunch of vkei fans know these bands and consider them popular/overrated, but there's a reason why it's popular. The music, members and the band itself is beautiful and astonishing, which is why it has earned its title as 'popular'.

Plus, as I have stated, I am still discovering vkei bands and learning more about its genres. It'd be really helpful if you guys drop some information about Visual Kei! It is highly appreciated.

I love these bands with all my heart, but please give me recommendations of bands similar to those listed above, or just drop some underrated bands I can get attached to!

Bands I recommend:

Plastic Tree

Dazzling BAD

Versailles

the GazettE

ALIENE MARIAGE

Moi dix Mois

XaaXaa

Diaura

X Japan

SHAZNA

Songs I'd like to recommend you listen:

Mejibray - Kore wo izon to yobu nara

Mejibray - Divergence

Mejibray - DIE KUSSE

Plastic Tree - San-Gatsu Itsu-Ka

Plastic Tree - Ink

Plastic Tree - Tefutefu

Plastic Tree - Kuuchuu Buranko

SHAZNA - Sumire September Love

SHAZNA - Melty Love

SHAZNA - C'est la vie

Moi dix Mois - Monophobia

Moi dix Mois - Lilac of Damnation

Moi dix Mois - Nocturnal Romance

Moi dix Mois - Vestige

Gulu Gulu - Kubiwa Kyouiku no Susume

Gulu Gulu - Oyasumi

Kaneto-Juusei - Kimihahonnou

Kaneto-Juusei - tokyotomushokukobayashiakihito

Kaneto-Juusei - Manatsunobiratwo

(Sorry if the name for Kaneto-Juusei songs are wrong 😔)

: By the way, I suggested songs from bands I am fond of. As I had said, I am still discovering and learning about other bands and their music. Please bear with me, everyone. :')

— The songs I recommended are just so.. amazing. I actually can't describe how much I LOVE this genre of music. I can listen to them for all eternity.

And yes, haha, I know the beef between Ai from Gulu Gulu and Chill from Kaneto-Juusei, so saying that I put Gulu Gulu next to Kaneto-Juusei may be a bit disrespectful but it's kinda silly to me. I love both bands, though I do not support or can confirm the surrounding controversies each band has. I love and enjoy them solely because of their style and music, maybe also one member who isn't as problematic as the others or the band itself.

[glambots]

By the way, happy Holidays in advance!

Do the animatronics have their own festive celebrations once the pizzaplex is closed? Do they receive gifts or make gifts? You can choose the 4 characters you prefer for this. Thanks for all your hard work, I love what you do and I wish you everything you love for next year!

I'll do the Glams/band for this one!

🎩Glamrock Freddy + Holiday HCs:🎩

⭐Freddy is definitely the kind of guy to put gifts together by-hand--and they're usually filled with merchandise and vouchers of some kind. He'd love to give more "personal" gifts, but still, it's more about the sentiment behind the gift, rather than what's given...right? (He still really hopes you like it, though.)

⭐Almost everyone on the staff gets a "gift" from Freddy Fazbear for..."Fazmas." Though it's mostly a corporate issued gift card or voucher for the Plex itself. Gotta get that money cycling back into the arcade-economy! Freddy is aware of this tradition, though he feels a little awkward knowing the gifts didn't actually come from him.

⭐Aside from putting together gifts, Freddy spends most of his holidays responding to fanmail. When I say the man gets just about as many letters as Santa, I mean it. Not that he doesn't appreciate the cards and letters he gets! It can just be a bit...much. He only has so many shelves to display things on!

🍕Glamrock Chica + Holiday HCs:🍕

⭐Chica loves decorating. She absolutely lives for helping string up Fazmas lights all around the 'Plex. She'll even try to sneak up some mistletoe here and there if she can get away with it! (Which she can, usually until someone gets caught under it and then it gets taken away--killjoys!)

⭐Her gifts tend to be little bundles of candy, vouchers, and hand-made Fazmas cards. They're very basic, but she puts a lot of love and genuine care into each package. There are ribbons everywhere. Stickers. Glitter. Bows. She even swaps out her regular candy selection for more "holiday-themed" treats to give out.

⭐Honestly, out of the group, Chica is the most holiday-crazy. She'll spend hours looping holiday songs on repeat until either Roxy or Monty threaten to break her stereo if she doesn't play something else for the love of god please if they have to listen to "Jinglebell Rock" one more Got Dam time--

🐺Roxanne Wolf + Holiday HCs:🐺

⭐Being your resident "tsundere," it is up to Roxy to be the "Bah! Humbug" of the group. She's too cool for all this sappy Fazmas junk. Why get all excited over nothing? It's just another day. (She says, spending countless hours poring over what gifts to get her bandmates.) They better appreciate all she does for them!

⭐Still, that "Grinch-like" mentality is never shown around the fans. No need to ruin it for the little rockstars. Besides, she has to admit--she looks pretty good in-costume. But, like, when doesn't she? Not to mention, she gives Mariah Carey a run for her money when it comes to performing "All I Want For (Faz)mas!"

⭐Really, though, as much as she puts on an act in the face of "holiday spirit," Roxy is such a sucker for getting holidays cards. She might not get nearly as many as Freddy, obviously, but the ones she does get, she displays with complete and utter pride. And if anyone (Monty) makes a snide comment on it, she'll kick their ass!

🐊Montgomery Gator + Holiday HCs:🐊

⭐Compared to Roxy, Monty kind of flip-flops between trying to act too "cool" for the holiday hype, and being completely obvious about his love for the holidays. Because, who wouldn't be hype?! It's Fazmas, baby! Time to crack open some (non-alcoholic) eggnog and Jinglebell Rock-n-Roll!

⭐When it comes to character costumes, he's almost always cast as a reindeer of some sort. Mostly because the elf costumes won't fit on him, and corporate just has to have Freddy play Santa. Every. Year. No, he's not salty about it, not at all! Why would you think that? He says, drawing a mustache and horns on the nearest "Santa Paws" poster. Stupid, lucky bigshot bear...

⭐Monty's gifts are very...self-promotional. Usually vouchers to his own attractions, something with his autograph on it, and a Fazmas-themed "limited edition" Monty plush. And he fully expects you to love it, because why wouldn't you? Look at how cool his plush looks! Check out that autograph! And you get a chance to hang out with him even more! What's not to love?!

My grandmother on my dads side felt she was too young to be called mom so her kids called her by her name and we called her nana because she didn’t want to be called grandma. As you said there’s glam-ma now and Gigi and just so many other options that isn’t the traditional names. Titi for auntie. The list goes on.

Also, my mom and dad had me young so we’re not too far off in age and they’ve both been struggling to cope with the “grandparents” idea. My mom is coping a little better than my dad but he’s always been the “I’ll be young forever” type of person. I think they’ll forget all about the insecurities for a bit once baby girl drops in a few months, but I definitely agree that adopting new roles in life that tie into the aging process can really do a number on you if you’re not ready to accept/embrace it. Even I forget I’m actually 25 and not 18 anymore so when people call me “mom” or “mama” now it just feels odd but I’m getting used to it as it gets closer to my due date. Just took a lot of self reflecting and self love and understanding that I can still be myself while simultaneously being someone’s mother.

"Took a lot of self reflecting and self love and understanding that I can still be myself while being someone's mother"

COME ON SISSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

Its kinda like that weird phenomenon where some folks forget the pain of childbirth the moment they hold their baby! Because the thing that really matters isnow tangible! It's WILD!

There are a lot of variables like the ones you described like the age you are when you have your baby and if parents have their children young (like teen parents, etc) the terms like "Auntie" and "Granny" are harder to swallow. In the end, its our own acceptance and love of ourselves that really matters.

TABERNACLE!

[✎ ITA] W Korea : Intervista con V pre-rilascio di Layover (V x Cartier) | 22.08.2023

🗞 V x W KOREA - 22 agosto 2023

__ Intervista ‘cover story’ per W Korea (feat. Cartier) di settembre

📷 Servizio fotografico | Orig. KOR | Ver. ENG | Twitter

Ecco dispiegata, ancora una volta, la pacata radiosità di V—il suo portamento, riflesso finanche in un battito di ciglia, come sospeso nella leggiadra cadenza temporale.

Tra le luci sontuose e gli elaborati gioielli che ne impreziosiscono la figura, il portamento composto di V sprigiona un fascino irresistibile.

Nell'introduzione del video musicale di ‘Love Me Again’, che è un primo sguardo al suo album solista – Layover - di prossima uscita, la sua aura echeggia il lusso di un'icona glam rock. Tuttavia, circondato dallo splendore mistico delle caverne – stalattiti quasi soprannaturali sospese tutt'intorno – V si erge come l'incarnazione di un moderno Narciso—rischiarato da luminescenze danzanti che divampano fulgide come il sole. Nella successiva anteprima offerta da ‘Rainy Days’, potremmo distillare l'essenza stessa del video in ciò che non sarebbe affatto fuori luogo chiamare ‘profondo sentimentalismo’.

Mentre lavorava al suo nuovo album, l'obiettivo di V era quello di svelare nuove dimensioni di se stesso, nonché le diverse personalità coltivate nel tempo, grazie alle esperienze vissute finora. Non abbiamo dubbi che i 5 videoclip delle altrettante tracce di Layover si amalgameranno in perfetta armonia —un vero e proprio omaggio al suo genio artistico.

Con la sua soave espressività vocale e la sua aura, di fronte all'obiettivo, V è in pieno controllo della scena e conquista non solo le/gli ARMY, ma anche produttori e artigiani dell'arte visiva, i/le quali non vedono l'ora di tuffarsi alla scoperta delle sue profonde abilità creative.

A partire dall'ammaliante luccichio nei suoi occhi, passando per l'accattivante grazia delle sue dita e l'eleganza della sua figura, W Korea ha immortalato fino all'ultima sfaccettatura dell'essenza di V. E quando poi – durante la nostra intervista – il sole stava calando, ricoprendoci delle sue tenui luminescenze, V ci ha lasciatə distrattamente con queste parole:

‘È in giornate come queste che mi sento felice e ho il cuore pieno di gioia.’

Potremmo descrivere il giugno 2022 – mese in cui i BTS si sono imbarcati nelle proprie carriere soliste – come un elegante arazzo in cui sono intessuti 9 anni di storia di gruppo. L'album-antologia 'Proof' ne è l'espressione più concreta. Da allora, hai seguito i tuoi compagni di viaggio intraprendere le loro attività individuali, cosa hai provato e colto da quest'esperienza?

V: Ogni volta che li vedo salire sul palco, sono così fiero di quanta strada hanno fatto. Ognuno di loro porta alla luce qualcosa di nuovo ed inedito ed è semplicemente fantastico seguirli in quest'esperienza. Sul serio, sono totalmente preso e sto cercando di assorbire il più possibile da ogni singolo spettacolo e palco presentato e solcato finora dai ragazzi.

Ora che i riflettori sono puntati su V, c'è fibrillazione nell'aria–Layover, il tuo primo album solista, verrà rilasciato l'8 settembre. Questa tua impresa artistica è ormai entrata nel vivo, ma quali sono stati i pensieri e sentimenti predominanti negli ultimi mesi di processo creativo?

V: Mi sembra passata un'eternità dall'ultima volta che ho lavorato e ho incontrato le/gli ARMY individualmente. Volete sapere qual era il pensiero più pressante? ‘Dovrei forse mettermi a dieta, se voglio che sia un comeback in grande stile?’ Potete fidarvi quando dico che era diventata una vera e propria ossessione (ride).

Degna di nota, riguardo Layover, è la collaborazione con Min Hee-jin, la presidentessa di ADOR nonché il genio creativo dietro le NewJeans. Per quale motivo hai deciso di coinvolgerla in qualità di produttrice, per questo progetto?

V: Volevo mostrare un lato diverso della mia musicalità, rispetto ai miei lavori precedenti, e questa collaborazione mi è sembrata il modo più adatto per raggiungere quell'obiettivo. Lo spunto principale è arrivato da(ll'album) 'Pink Tape' delle F(x), e l'ho contattata subito dopo essermene ricordato. Abbiamo avuto scambi creativi davvero soddisfacenti, coprendo ogni dettaglio del caso, e l'intero processo non ha incontrato intoppi. La produttrice Min ha messo a mia disposizione la sua passione ed esperienza. Inoltre è una persona davvero accogliente e piacevole.

Chiaramente tu non sei estraneo alla sala registrazioni; tuttavia, affrontare un progetto solista era un'esperienza ancora inesplorata, per te. Hai scoperto qualcosa di nuovo sul tuo conto – fossero anche solo sfumature ancora inedite della tua artisticità - durante questo viaggio?

V: L'intero processo mi ha ricordato i miei giorni di addestramento da trainee. È stato come riscoprire la mia identità canora. Così facendo, quasi per caso, ho scoperto nuovi aspetti della mia vocalità– più vicino a certe tonalità ed enunciazioni rispetto a prima.

Facciamo un salto nel passato, allora: in una puntata di <BTS Gayo>, ti abbiamo visto in una perfetta esibizione di ‘Love's Twist’ di Sul Wun-do. Ora, tornando rapidamente allo scorso giugno, ti abbiamo anche sentito in serenate jazz sui grandi classici del passato. La tua voce ha questa rara maturità naturale, specialmente nelle tonalità più basse, che ti distingue da molti dei cantanti della tua età. Conosci bene le tecniche canore che meglio possono esprimere questo tuo fascino?

V: Mi piacciono diversi generi musicali e spesso mi ritrovo a canticchiare tra me e me. Grazie ai preparativi per quest'album solista, posso dire veramente di aver scoperto la mia essenza canora, ed è proprio questo che ha reso il tutto estremamente gratificante.

Trovi che Layover sia più una raccolta di ciò in cui V brilla maggiormente o di ciò che ama?

V: È un mix di entrambe le cose. In Layover, ho fuso i miei punti di forza con ciò che amo. Sono impareggiabile, quando si tratta di questo tipo di atmosfere (ride). Vorreste maggiori dettagli?... Beh, per ora non posso ancora svelarveli.

Tu e Jungkook spesso condividete le vostre bozze musicali? Dopo il recente rilascio del suo progetto solista, ‘Seven’ - a luglio, Jungkook ha rivelato che tu sei stato il primo a sentire la sua canzone. Tuttavia, ha anche candidamente ammesso le dissonanze musicali tra voi, osservando ‘A dire il vero, abbiamo gusti piuttosto diversi. V è più per le sonorità calme e chic’. Che cosa significa, per te, quel ‘chic’?

V: Ahahah, per me ‘chic’ ha diversi significati. Prendete, ad esempio, RM. Ha scritto questo inedito pazzesco, il brano che ha presentato – magnificamente - a sorpresa durante il concerto encore di SUGA. Ogni volta che sento quella canzone, penso ‘Voglio cantare anche io un brano così chic, prima o poi.’

In quanto artista, dovrai sicuramente affrontare diversi stadi e passaggi prima di poter presentare i frutti del tuo lavoro al resto del mondo. Quale momento in questo processo è più elettrizzante, per te?

V: Dare vita concreta ad un progetto o concept artistico fino ad allora solo immaginato è, senza dubbio, già elettrizzante di per sé, nonché una grandissima soddisfazione – sia che si tratti di video musicali o servizi fotografici.

Persino icone globali del tuo calibro, talvolta, si lasciano sopraffare dall'agitazione. Come riesci a mantenere la calma? Chi o cosa ti è d'aiuto per restare in bolla?

V: A dire il vero, devo confessare che trovo un certo fascino nella tremarella che precede un'esibizione. È entusiasmante, una felice trepidazione. Mi piace quel tipo di tensione.

C'è forse qualche complimento che riesce a tirarti particolarmente su di morale?

V: Beh… ogni complimento è sempre il benvenuto. Quando ne ricevo, praticamente ballo felice fino a casa.

Se dovessi prendere in esame la tua personalità, quali tratti o sfumature di quest'ultima apprezzi maggiormente?

V: Anche se non sono sempre attivo o veloce in ciò che faccio, ho una certa costanza e resistenza, procedo saldo come una nave cisterna

Abbiamo tuttə delle vulnerabilità. Quale pensi sia il tuo tallone d'Achille?

V: Forse i miei tempi? Sono solito seguire un mio ritmo, e questo, probabilmente, mette a dura prova la pazienza delle/gli ARMY, a volte. Parlo, ad esempio, del mio album solista– l'attesa si è protratta piuttosto a lungo. In realtà, l'idea originale era pubblicarlo a dicembre dello scorso anno; ma il processo creativo ha richiesto più tempo del previsto, e di questo sono molto dispiaciuto nei confronti delle/i fan.

Nei momenti cruciali della tua esistenza, tendi maggiormente ad affidarti al tuo intuito o cerchi consiglio nella tua cerchia di conoscenze?

V: Ho piena fiducia nel mio istinto, ma sono sempre aperto e pronto ad assorbire i consigli che mi arrivano dalle persone a me vicine. Sono entrambi molto importanti per me.

Conducendo una vita sempre sotto i riflettori, non c'è dubbio tu abbia vissuto diversi momenti magici. Tuttavia, col passare del tempo, provi forse un minore senso di meraviglia rispetto a quello degli inizi?

V: Interessante.. Sì, certo, ci sono stati momenti in cui il palcoscenico m'è parso meno elettrizzante. Per mantenere vivo quel senso di meraviglia e gratitudine, credo di dover trovare nuovi lati e sfaccettature della mia arte e personalità, così da evolvere. È proprio questo desiderio di riscoperta e rinnovamento che sta alla base del mio nuovo album.

Nonostante dal punto di vista artistico, man mano che accumuli nuove esperienze, tu continui a crescere e ad evolvere, c'è forse qualche aspetto di V – o forse dovremmo dire di Kim Taehyung – che rimane sempre uguale?

V: La ricerca della felicità, per quanto piccola o passeggera possa essere. Che si tratti dell'amicizia con gli altri membri, l'atmosfera speciale di un set o anche il pensiero fugace dei giorni di riposo a venire o di ciò che mangerò oggi– questi piccoli e gioiosi momenti di felicità sono molto importanti, per me.

Col dispiegarsi della vita, quali sono le tue aspirazioni più ambiziose, al momento?

V: Forse vi sorprenderà, ma solitamente non nutro grandi ambizioni. Mi è stato detto che i miei desideri sono di natura temperata. Ovviamente, avere ambizioni ed obiettivi è positivo, ma io sono solito misurare le giornate in gradi di felicità. Ciononostante, quando si tratta di un servizio fotografico, divento piuttosto ambizioso (ride).

Poniamo ci sia la perfetta confluenza di tempo, spazio ed opportunità, qual è un'esibizione cui ti piacerebbe lavorare e portare alla luce? Il palcoscenico dei tuoi sogni?

V: Tutto ruota sempre intorno alle/gli ARMY. Stare insieme, sentire la loro energia– quello è fondamentale.

5 Gorgeous Karwa Chauth Makeup Looks for 2024

Karwa Chauth is one of the most awaited festivals in India, where married women fast from sunrise until moonrise for the longevity and well-being of their husbands. On this special day, women love to dress up in beautiful attire and traditional ornaments, and, above all, create the perfect Karva Chauth makeup. Whether you prefer a subtle, elegant look or something bold and glamorous, your makeup should reflect the celebration. In 2024, Charmacy Milano Cosmeticsoffers an exclusive range of stunning Karwa Chauth makeup looks, from glowing skin to striking eyes and perfect lips, ensuring you shine throughout the festivities!

1. The Classic Glam Look

A classic karwa chauth makeup look never goes out of fashion. To achieve this, you want to draw attention to your enhanced features, along with rich festive colours.

Face Makeup: Begin by hydrating your skin with a cmc pro-pore conceal primer to help set a smooth base. Medium coverage, cmc liquid matte foundation evens the complexion. Only this flawless finish could get you through a long day of fasting when Charmacy Milano's set & fix loose powder makeup is there to set the foundation without any unwanted shine.

For definition, you may apply a Cmc Cheek Enhancerat the sides of the face for a natural flush of colour. For defining the face, use a soft contour under the cheekbones and along the jawline. A highlighter on the high points with cmc Baked Illuminator, such as cheekbones, brow bone, and nose, gives it a glamorous shine.

Eyes Makeup: For eye makeup look, start with warm shades from Cmc eye shadow palette, and here is where I emphasise versatility in choosing the kit. Deep gold and bronze colour tones with a hint of brown in the crease will create a beautiful mix that complements traditional Indian outfits. Create a bold wing with Cmc sketch eyeliner and finish with voluminous mascara for further enhancement of eyes. To look great with eye makeup, fill your brows perfectly with cmc duo eyebrow filler & ultra definer to leave it smooth and defined.

Lip Makeup: This vibrant festive makeup look would come to its final with bold, deep lip colours. Deep reds or maroon would be just the right lip makeup products for Karwa Chauth. You will have an option between choosing liquid matte lipstick or creme lipstick according to your liking. Charmacy Milano's Flattering matte lipstick is also a great option for those who like to keep it low keyed.

2. The Dewy Goddess Makeup Look

The dewy goddess is perfect for that glowing, radiant karva chauth special makeup. All about fresh, hydrated glow with a minimal makeup effort, it is the epitome of effortlessness at its finest elegance.

Face Makeup:

Begin by applying a hydrating serum or moisturiser before your foundation. For this look, go for Cmc matte liquid foundation and put very minimal touches using Charmacy Milano's set & fix loose powder to keep everything in place without losing that luminous effect. Highlight the high points of your face to gain that extra glow. Soft coral or pink blush gives that tint on your cheeks.

Eye Makeup Look: Look for soft but invasive eyes. Think dewy goddess with a champagne or rose gold wash of eyeshadow over the lids. You want to avoid thick eyeliner and focus more on the soft, fluttery lashes, and likely a couple of coats of cmc power lash mascara. Softer fills in for the brows on the periphery to keep them natural yet defined.

Lip Makeup: For your lips, opt for something soft and natural. Charmacy Milano's Flattering matte lipstick in soft pink or nude will keep the focus on your radiant skin. A gloss on top can add to the dewiness and keep your lip makeup looking new all day.

3. The Bold and Beautiful Look

If you're one of those who love bold statements and are up to experimenting, then this simply beautiful Karva Chauth makeup is ideal for you.

Face Makeup :  Use a full-coverage cmc matte foundation for an ultra-glamorous base. For a long-lasting hold, set makeup with Cmc Set & Fix Loose powder. Contour the cheeks and highlight using a deep blush shade from Cmc cheek enhancer collection. Intensify with Cmc Baked Illuminator for dramatic contrast effects and high festive potential.

Eye Makeup: Now, you are focusing on the eyes for this look. Remove rich, jewel-toned shades such as emerald green, sapphire blue, or maybe even royal purple from your eye makeup kit. Blend well, and get bold with that eyeliner. That makes some dramatic cat-eye or graphic eyeliner to create a statement. Don't forget false lashes to end it off for added drama.

Lip Makeup: Deep berry shades, dark reds, or bold browns on the lips create a bold lip. Charmacy Milano's lip makeup products in these shades will surely be making your lips pop. And a liquid matte lipstick shall provide long-lasting colour with no smudging and worry-free throughout the day.

4. The Subtle Elegance Look

If you are a simple yet elegant person, the understated charm Karwa Chauth makeup look shall be just perfect for you. It is a rather ideal look for women who do not want much makeup but still have to be chic.

Face Makeup: Begin with the Cmc Matte foundation to achieve an even tone. Face makeup products include soft blushes in peach or pink hues that create a healthy glow and contouring method accentuated the shape of the face without looking too done. That highlighter on the nose, cheekbones, and brow bone is just enough to give you that fresh glow.

Eye Makeup: Save neutral shades of the colour for your eyes. Use thin eyeliner against the lash line to give a subtle look. Apply a coat of mascara to open up those peepers. Define your brows lightly with duo eyebrow filler & ultra definer eyebrow liner and take the look to be well-groomed and natural.

Lip Makeup: Go for soft, natural shades for the lips. A nude or pink from Flattering matte lipsticks will give you just enough colour without overpowering the rest of your makeup.

Dehd Releases New Single 'Dog Days' from Upcoming Album 'Poetry' - Tour Dates Announced!

Just before launching their new album, Poetry, Dehd has released the lead single "Dog Days," which made its debut today on Zane Lowe's Apple Radio show. Rolling Stone highlighted this track as an "exhilarating opener" in a recent in-depth profile on the band, noting its captivating chorus that makes you want to grab your friends and shout along. The release of "Dog Days" is complemented by a music video, directed by the band's regular collaborator Glam Hag. The video features an intricate one-shot sequence in a vintage Honky Tonk bar, brilliantly reflecting the artistic vision of frontman Jason Balla for the song. Jason Balla shared his thoughts on the single, describing "Dog Days" as a tribute to life's chaos and the quest for companionship. He explained, "It’s about embracing vulnerability, experiencing rejection, and the complex dance of human relationships. This song is for those navigating the tumultuous journey of love, making mistakes, and living passionately. It's an anthem for those riding the same emotional rollercoaster." Following the album's release, Dehd will embark on a busy schedule, including a major North American festival run, appearances at radio shows during the summer, and a nine-city headline tour across Europe. They will then return to North America for an extensive tour, featuring a notable performance at Brooklyn Steel in New York City and wrapping up with two nights at Thalia Hall in Chicago. Tickets can be purchased at dehd.horse. You can listen to "Dog Days" now. Below, find more details about the tour and the album, and keep an eye out for more updates from Dehd.

Fr., 5.7.2024, 21:00 Uhr: BBQT (US) + TEO WISE (IT) – Komet Musik Bar, Hamburg

TEO WISE

Teo Wise is an Italian singer-songwriter who can't sit still. His music meets between the past and future, creating a flashlight that will warm up your little heart, making you feel at home as if you're jumping back into your childhood bed. For Teo Wise, it doesn't matter what you have learned; grab some glue and other random stuff, put it together, and create whatever you want. But his favorite thing to do is live shows with his band "Teo Wise and His Mommy." There is no musical genre in his sound; you can choose how to call it or call it, as he calls it, "Spaghetti RNR."

BBQT

BBQT – Glam rock’n’roll from Austin Texas?! BBQT is the brainchild of Gabbie Bam Bam. The first album from BBQT ‘Lets Go’ is an instant classic of the modern glam-orientated genre. The lazy shortcut to what we’re talking about is to imagine a combination of Suzi Quatro, The Heartbreakers (Thunders’ incarnation) and Gary Glitter! We’re talking two minute blasts of explosive, adrenalised rock’n’roll that knows its way around a hook and is happy to cut to the chase – no waiting around for the chorus. Gabbie Bam Bam sings, plays guitar and writes all the songs. She has a voice that does indeed remind you of Suzi Q – and even Poly Styrene at times, but the songs are much more straightforward rock’n’roll than anything X- Ray Spex ever came up with. The album comes in at a Ramones approved sub thirty-minute total and there’s no room for fillers. Standout tracks are ‘Golden Twenty’, ’Play Rock’n’Roll’ and ‘Flatline Luv’. Fans of any of the newer acts in a modern day glam movement that continues to pick up momentum – the likes of Faz Waltz, Giuda, Smash Fashion and Star Studded Sham, can add another must-have to the list.

I love the video of the rats in the little cars that the father of the owner built (grandpapa to rats?? My mom considers herself a “glam-ma” to all the pets as she would a child in her own words so). It’s really cute and makes me smile.

It also makes me feel sad and a little envious. My partner and I don’t really speak about our rats too often to my family members. More so to my youngest sister, since she does genuinely find them adorable (she also had a hedgehog and hamsters and now is taking care of the family pet rabbit) but not so much to my mom. I don’t even know how my dad would personally feel about it, I guess I will have to get around to asking him when he’s in a better state. But like, I can’t just show pictures casually and my family would never be so comfortable and loving towards them. My mom asks about them occasionally but we dont show pictures. She is better than my aunt, who would make disgusting comments about rats in general that I won’t get into. I’m sure we’ve all had horrible things said to our faces about our rats, we’ve all heard them. It wasn’t until I told her to her face that I thought she was cruel and close-minded and that I could never imagine being so hateful towards an innocent animal like her that she finally learned to keep her opinions to herself.

But I shouldn’t have to do that. I shouldn’t have to justify my love for them. I shouldn’t have to be like that to get people to at least be quiet about how much they hate rats when they find out I own several.

But anyway. I love that video and I wish to see more families and people in general learn to be kind and loving to rats. They deserve it! They’re so freaking smart and cute and loving and funny.
