MELLA IS MONEY ICONS.

[chocobosdungeon2]

my silly little playlists

a collection of all the spotify playlists ive made

pretty much all of these are made to be on shuffle

___

Relatively Normal Playlists

The Vibes

My regular listening playlist, most reflective my actual music taste

The Apple of my Eye

Romantic playlist with a definite sapphic tilt

にほんごのおんがく (Japanese Music)

What it says on the tin. Realized that my Japanese music collection is on a hard drive that's in storage, so started actually putting what I can onto this playlist. Spotify still doesnt have a lot :(

Instrumentals

Also what it says on the tin. Ranges from noise music to OSTs to orchestras. Sorry if a lyric'd song snuck in, I try to catch them.

Morning Moods

Songs I find relaxing. Manifesting peaceful mornings

office vibes (sfw)

Songs that are good but also not offensive to my mormon bosses.

Feel Good

High energy songs that generally stay positive

Purgatory

Was my regular listening playlist until I made The Vibes, now I put songs I maybe kinda like on there to test them out more

---

Specific Themes

pop+punk XYZ

pop punk/pop punk adjacent songs from the 90s to now (generations X, Y, and Z)

video games

Songs from video games, not songs about video games. Also the Spyro theme is the only cover on the playlist I think.

memento mori

Songs about death/dealing with death. somber but i honestly enjoy listening to it sometimes.

i planted a garden right here

Songs of any kind as long as it is the name of a flower/tree/shrub/some sort of plant. It is a very large garden and it is very fun to wander through.

A E S T H E T I C

contemporary vaporwave playlist (curated when vaporwave was still popular)

rainbow girlfriends

red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, pink, repeat

A Christmas Playlist

Holiday vibes with a lot more spice. Could not earnestly be put in the normal list. named after the infamous A Christmas Record, which is of course included

Let's Get Political

songs that have a message but are also bangers

Bread

Songs about money/having money. Manifesting, etc.

middle school dance in rural california circa 2009

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

make me smile

Songs that make me laugh to drop into queues like tacs on a running track.

Girlies is Online

i dont mean to alarm you just thought you should know.

GIRLS NIGHT

GIRLS NIGHT

___

Original Characters Donut Steel

A Land of Milk and Honey

Could technically just be considered an 80s Sophistipop playlist but I am being honest. This is a blorbo playlist.

Mella (D&D)

Actually meant to be listened to in order instead of shuffled. Tracks her path from childhood to 100 years in the Feywild before she was forced to leave and then her adventuring vibes (with a death theme for good measure)

The Bandit Queen's Bride: The Marketplace (Part 2)

See, I promised :)

Also link to part 1

~~~

Jin stood from her spot on the cushion, making a mental note to buy a better one for the old man. Last thing she needed was him hurting his hip and whinging for days about how the cushion was to blame. He deserved better than that. The gold bits felt hot in her hand, begging to be spent, but she held herself in check. Patience, Jin… Patience…

Her eye caught on a flash of something shiny, drawing her attention across the market square. There, nearly drowned out by the crushing mass of bodies shuffling by, stood a woman with her auburn hair contained in a net of woven gold threads and diamonds, lending a sparkle to every minute movement of her head. It was the dazzling flash that had drawn Jin’s eye, but that was hardly the thing that rooted her in place.

No, what stopped her dead was that, as she peered over the sea of bodies milling about in a lazy shuffle, the woman looked back at her, and their eyes locked.

Maybe it was the heat from standing in the sun. Maybe it was the claustrophobic press of the crowd before her. Maybe it was the headache born from days of stress and hunger and sleeplessness. Whatever the reason, Jin found herself struck dumb by the eye contact. It lasted just a second--less than a second, truthfully.

But it was long enough.

She was barely aware of “Blessed fuckin’ stars” leaving her lips in a breathless tone. If she’d still had her wits about her, the Bandit Queen would have been mortified that her interest was so obvious. At least the only of her bandits who witnessed the lapse of composure was Gallum. Entranced, she began wading through the crowd toward the woman, who’d already turned away to examine the wares of the stall where she stood.

~

“See anything you like, miss?”

The merchant inquired with a hopeful voice, but the words bounced around in her head without fully processing. Mella stared blankly at the table, trying to appear interested despite having no idea what she was looking at. Her thoughts were racing, already replaying the split-second eye contact she’d made with the gorgeous stranger across the way. The woman’s hair was matted and dirty, the blonde edging closer to brown in color, and her clothes were quite shabby… But her eyes… The gaze she met was dark and wild, like an animal that wasn’t quite tame. Just thinking about those eyes sent a little shiver down her spine in spite of the heat.

The merchant cleared his through, the polite sound barely audible over the noise of the marketplace, but it succeeded in drawing her attention back to the present. Embarrassed by her own behavior, Mella plucked up the first thing she saw on the table, presenting it to the merchant. If she made a purchase, surely he wouldn’t care that she hadn’t said a word for nearly a minute.

“This, if you please.”

As the words left her lips, Mella cursed herself. She didn’t have her purse with her! Freidrech had insisted that she didn’t need it. Why would she, when he could buy whatever she wanted? Of course, that was before she slipped away, leaving him to argue with the manager of the restaurant where they’d eaten lunch. He was probably still there, the insipid boar.

“Ah, excellent choice, miss! This is my finest piece among a selection of fine pieces! The price is twelve gold bits, but for the pretty lady, a mere six bits is all I ask.”

Mella stared at the man, then at her hand. In her grasp was a necklace made of woven gold, and at the center hung a pendant in the shape of a scallop shell. The pendant was carved from some kind of glittering stone, catching the bright sunlight as it turned this way and that on the chain. Six gold bits was barely a fair price for something like this; she highly doubted he initially planned to sell it for twelve, given the competent craftsmanship and simplistic design. Not that it mattered. Mella had no money.

Just as she began to put it down, mouth opening to sheepishly explain that she had no money, an arm reached past her to drop six bits on the counter.

“She’ll have it.”

Mella shivered as the husky female voice brushed against her senses. Whoever had spoken stood right behind her, reaching around her to pay the merchant. The merchant was thanking the mystery woman while simultaneously tucking the bits into a lockbox. The arm retracted partly, the slender-fingered hand resting on Mella’s bicep. Heat approached the side of her head, and the same voice whispered in her ear,

“Beautiful girls deserve beautiful things… And you are by far the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in my life.”

~

Jin was in full maiden-wooing mode, forgetting about her promise to buy Gallum some cider, forgetting that they needed to scrape together as much money as possible, forgetting that she needed to not get tangled up in whatever political machinations a woman like this one would undoubtedly be involved with. The woman was only a bit shorter than her, so the Bandit Queen could whisper in her ear without bending at all, and she was rewarded with a tiny shiver in response. Had she not been touching the woman’s arm, she never would have known she reacted at all.

The woman turned her head just enough to see Jin from the corner of her beautiful blue eye. The town was big enough to have a few lesser noble families residing there during the summer months; the redhead beauty was dressed in the fine clothes and jewels of a noble daughter. Maybe Jin would be getting lucky in more ways than one today.

“Excuse me, miss, but you’re in my personal space. Did no one teach you that it’s impolite to lay hands on a stranger?”

Jin relinquished her contact on the woman’s arm and took half a step back, nearly bumping into someone walking by. The redhead turned to look fully at her, lifting a hand to shade her eyes from the sun. White silk glove, long enough to tuck under the mid-forearm length of her dress sleeve, which was edged with lace. Oh yes, this woman was definitely a noble…

“Pardon me, miss. Didn’t mean to offend.”

The woman scoffed. “Perhaps, but offense was taken nonetheless. That being said… Perhaps we shall call it even, seeing as you’ve already purchased me a gift.”

Jin felt a grin spread over her lips. The woman’s words were delivered with a sharp voice, but the way she was avoiding eye contact belied how flustered she really was. She was not the first woman to react with polite hostility to the Bandit Queen’s advances; she would probably fall just as hard and easily as the others.

“Please, dear lady, allow me to make up for my indiscretion with another gesture. Let me to buy you a drink to quench your thirst. The sun is hot today, and a beauty like you should be kept cool in the shade.”

The woman seemed to consider the offer. Her lips parted slightly, and Jin’s gaze fell to them, admiring the shape of them… Imagining what it would be like to kiss them… To hear the desperate gasps and cries for mercy that the Bandit Queen would wring out while her own lips trailed down the soft curve of her neck and shoulder…

“There you are, my lady! You vanished while I was distracted.”

The sound of a man’s voice shattered the daydream filling Jin’s head. The redhead stepped quickly away, then around her to be greeted by a man with a handsome face and a suit of such bright white silk that he was blinding in the sunlight. This was a man who demanded attention with his very presence, and Jin hated him immediately.

~

I’m going to lose my mind, Mella thought to herself. The strange woman was so close, grinning at her as if she found the entire situation amusing. At first, Mella had been too sidetracked by her bold demeanor to notice anything else… But the sound of Freidrech’s voice cut through the fog in her mind. She stepped past the woman to intercept him, hoping to distract him from noticing how close a total stranger had been to her just seconds ago.

“Freidrech, it’s about time you stopped fussing over the lunch bill and joined me. I was beginning to think you’d gone and forgotten about me.”

Freidrech huffed and took her hand, lifting it to press his lips against the silk-gloved fingers. “Nonsense, my lady,” he said with a slight smile. “You leave too great an impression to ever be forgotten.”

His gaze slid past Mella’s face to look past her, and for a second, she worried that he would pick another pointless, petty fight with someone he saw as beneath him. But he did not. He released her hand, chin lifting and his arm offered out for her to hold onto.

“Come, my lady. We have an appointment to keep with Lord and Lady Volet. It would be a shame to disappoint them.”

She reached out, sliding a hand around his arm, and allowed herself to be pulled away from the market stall. She knew that looking back was a terrible idea--surely the stranger had taken the hint and moved on to the next pretty woman to flirt with.

Still, as Freidrech blathered on about how important it was to impress Lord Volet, Mella found herself glancing over her shoulder… And meeting the gaze of her approacher, just as dark and strange as the first glance, watching her intently as the distance between them grew. In her other hand, hastily tucked into the pocket of her dress, she clutched the scallop shell necklace tightly.

Carmella x Fem!Reader being on total divas?

Mystery girl || Carmella x Reader

Summary: Carmella reveals who she's dating on Total Divas.

The hotel room was filled with tension as the Total Divas crew waited for Carmella to reveal the mystery girl she'd been secretly dating. Sonya Deville sat on one of the beds, her curiosity piqued, and she exchanged a few glances with Carmella. The cameras were rolling, capturing every moment of this reveal.

Carmella took a deep breath, her eyes locked onto Sonya's, her heart pounding with a mix of excitement and nervousness. She knew that this moment could change everything.

"Sonya," Carmella began, her voice unwavering, "I have a confession to make. There's something I've been wanting to tell you, and I thought it was finally time."

Sonya leaned forward, her eyes narrowing with curiosity, "You've had so many confessions lately, first you're seeing this mystery girl but you can't tell me who she is, what now?"

Carmella hesitated for just a moment, her gaze drifting to the camera as she smiled and said, "This mystery girl I've been seeing, the one I've been keeping a secret? Well, it's not much of a secret anymore."

Sonya's eyebrows shot up in surprise as she looked from Carmella to the camera crew, her jaw dropping in realization.

Carmella continued, her voice filled with affection, "It's (Your Name), Sonya. She's the one I've fallen for, and I couldn't be happier."

Sonya was momentarily stunned, her mouth agape, but then a slow smile spread across her face. "No way, Mella! You and (Your Name)? That's amazing!"

The room seemed to lighten up with Sonya's enthusiastic reaction. The crew captured the genuine joy on her face as she embraced Carmella, congratulating her on this new chapter in her life.

The cameras rolled on as the conversation shifted, and Carmella began sharing her feelings openly. She spoke about how incredible you were, how your love had changed her life, and how she looked forward to a future filled with happiness with you by her side.

As Carmella spoke, her voice filled with emotion, it was evident just how deeply she cared for you. The viewers were treated to an intimate glimpse into her heart, and they couldn't help but be touched by her sincerity.

The segment concluded with Carmella and Sonya laughing together, their friendship stronger than ever. Carmella's revelation had brought them closer, and as the cameras finally cut away, the two friends were excitedly making plans for a double date, looking forward to sharing more precious moments together.

Carmella had not only shared her love for you with Sonya but with the world, and her genuine happiness was a testament to the strength of your relationship.

A purse inside of a purse? Like a coin purse? Do they make purses that small? I love your energy! & I know it's not really your gimmick anymore, but I totally flipped out whenever you made your return recently with shades of Money in the Bank Mella. I watched a ton of your stuff when you were on NXT and got the call up to Smackdown ... it was literally my favorite era of women's wrestling. I wear my snapback , because you did. I even tried to learn how to moonwalk but I kept falling so I had to nix that. 😫

(Referring to when Carmella won Money in the Bank 2017)

Mustafa Ali: I was happy for her cus I felt like she deserved it and she had been grinding at it forever.

Whenever Mustafa compliments or uplifts his coworkers it makes me so happy 🥺

MITB 2020

I wanted more interactions between men and women in the ring in the final part of the match but anyway it was all fun and good

These kind of things anyway are possible only in this period but at least we can see a lit bit of originality in WWE

P.s. Where were Dana, Shayna and Mella? Rey and Aleister are still alive? 🤔

2° P.s. Mella showed us very clearly that she has 2 qualities for sure, nice outfit🙊
