Hellooooo!
Thank you for these music links! I needed some new music to listen to, and not binge green green grass anymore. I vibed with all them but damn Igwe Aka. 💃 I saw some other music below and I did not know Frank Ocean did a version of moon river. 
I’ll def check out that book, I do love learning / reading about music history. I have also been meaning to read The Lyrics by Paul McCartney. Have you read it? I heard its pretty good. 
But I wish had some new music share, but the last few weeks have been busy with work and today is the first quiet day in awhile. I need a vacation soon. 😭🐸
How have you been doing? How’s work? Any new projects? Also if you don’t mind me asking how’s everything going with your guy friend, I hope he’s treating you well and you’re having fun. 
Also have you been following the stuff happening in Astrology? I’m still learning astrology and spirituality. But I got an email from refinery29 line is about to change and the next few weeks are big.
I was reading March 7th was the virgo full moon and then Saturn enter Pisces on that same day as well. Something about Venus and Jupiter?
I’ll link the articles I was reading below if you or anybody are interested.
https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/march-monthly-horoscopes-2023
https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/weekly-horoscope-5-11-march
https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/virgo-full-moon-march-2023
https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2023/03/11310605/saturn-in-pisces-march-2023-meaning-effects
https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/venus-jupiter-conjunction-march-2023-meaning-effects
And I’m watching these videos below but I had to take some breaks because it’s a lot of info. 
https://youtu.be/4n5nyuORF4M 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nz6FhbBn7V8
https://youtu.be/j9uW4zBckII <— I like her for journal prompts and meditations. 
Hello my love! So good to hear from you. I’m so glad you enjoyed the songs.
🎶🎼🎵 🎶🎼🎵 🎶🎼🎵 🎶🎼🎵 🎶🎼🎵
You saying green green grass made me think of this song.
Which gives me these vibes
I have not read that book about Paul McCartney but he’s def my favorite Beatle, also a vegetarian and Gemini.
I’ve been busy! I was out of town for work and a little pleasure too which was cool. I went to one of the other islands. That was fun! We also did a food distribution yesterday! Which was successful and a little draining but always good to help people.
So I actually had this dramatic drinking wine and crying thing yesterday. Listening to Godspeed. I think I like this guy or at least have feelings and I don’t think he really cares about me. It really hurts me deeply. But more than anything it’s just a continuing pattern of men not really caring about me. I know bla blah they aren’t the right one. I wish I could explain how often men have mistreated me. I’m beginning to truly believe that I will not find anything different. I’m not sure men are capable of being safe. I’m sad about this guy but it’s culminated in multiple men over the past few months just treating me in this very disposable way. I have this hangup around men not wanting to actually love or care about me and only liking the idea of me. It deeply hurts me. So that’s why we walked around the beach drinking our favorite wine out of the bottle and found ourselves crying our eyes out. Still so much grief. Idk I blame the Virgo moon (both my exes have Virgo moons fun enough) but also there is some stuff that’s happened to me that I think might hurt me forever. It’s just that cruel. It’s almost unfathomable. But enough of me going on about how men continue to be incapable of caring about me.
Yes! I could actually see Venus and Jupiter and the sky which was cool which would indicate expansion around love, while also the Saturn moving to Pisces thing happened. Which is about bringing karmic change around the unconscious, delusions and spirituality.
Here’s some songs I’ve been boppin
^^ reminds me of Bon Iver
^^ this mofo song has ear wormed back into my head from the recesses I never asked for but it’s been on my mind a lot lol.
^^also annoyingly in my mind

Tooniverse Music Leitmotifs! 🎶🎵
If my comic was an actual cartoon, the entire soundtrack would be composed on a Moog Synthesizer.
I’ve always loved Jean-Jacques Perrey’s work. It’s so weird and toony! Most of the Tooniverse’s music leitmotifs are inspired by his work.
Here is what would play for a specific character or situation…
🎼 Character Leitmotifs:
🖤 Ijinks H. Iwerx: Hectic Joker - Jean-Jacques Perrey & David Chazam
Her theme music would sound just as weird and awkward as she looks! Ijinks is a troublemaker who causes problems on purpose to mess with her toony creations!
❌⭕️ Jaycee Pawman: Kittens on the Moon - Jean-Jacques Perrey & Dana Countryman
Jaycee is childish, playful, skittish, and a little strange. Her imagination runs wild and she finds creative solutions to problems, or jumps to crazy conclusions.
🇨🇦 Cat Canada: Agent 29’s Escape - Jean-Jacques Perrey & Dana Countryman
Her leitmotif has a vintage superhero vibe to it. Perfect for springing into action!
👻 Wayne Gates: Funnygated - Jean-Jacques Perrey & Cosmic Pocket
Ghosts are often associated with the Theremin instrument, and Wayne is no exception. Wayne’s leitmotif is a synthesized Theremin-based melody that plays whenever he’s doing something awkward and nerdy or over-explaining something.
⭕️❌ Ella Pawman: Sentimental Trip - Jean-Jacques Perrey
Ella’s leitmotif would be something nostalgic and happy, but also sad and wistful. It would showcase her long life of accomplishments and struggles.
🐌 Dr. Hans Sans Panzer: Music of the Planets - Jean-Jacques Perrey
Dr. Hans Sans Panzer is a very intelligent, unhinged, revenge-driven mad scientist. He’s also a chronic insomniac and isolated in a underwater laboratory. Dr. HSP discovered the Tooniverse’s secrets through reality-defying physics and invented teleportation. A leitmotif like the one above showcases how his maniacal mind works!
🐝 Beeball: Waltzing the Weasel - Jean-Jacques Perrey
Beeball is a very dumb character, so he gets a very dumb “Pop Goes The Weasel” leitmotif! I can imagine a montage of him stupidly messing everything up, or explaining his flawed logic to someone while the above music plays.
🌲 Mayor River Moon Willows (and 🌻 Sierra): Edith Von Aachenburg - Jean-Jacques Perrey & Dana Countryman
It’s the perfect theme for being stuck with an airheaded hippie in a bureaucratic “city hall” environment!
💰 Hugh Forric: Clair de Lune - Claude Debussy
Hugh is associated with the classic piano piece “Clair De Lune”. His leitmotif would be a remix of various parts of the song to fit a situation. I can imagine this perfect, delicate song starting to hit sour notes whenever his ego is challenged.
💖 Diana Diamondhart: Sobre las Olas (“Over the Waves”) - Juventino Rosas
She’s associated with classical music, much like her ex-husband Hugh. This piece in particular is associated with both a delicate waltz, and a violent ocean surge. This showcases Diana’s two-faced personality.
🦌 John R. Deergutt: Electronic Can Can - Jean-Jacques Perrey & Gershon Kingsley
Here’s the leitmotif for Canvasville’s news anchor John R. Deergutt! Imagine a theme like this playing while shenanigans happen during a live broadcast!
🕵🏿 Tips Fedora: The Mysterious Mr. Him - Jean-Jacques Perrey & Dana Countryman
You can’t get more mysterious than being a literal shadow with eyes in a detective outfit! A theme like this would play whenever Tips is sleuthing or revealing confidential information to others.
🎼 Situational Leitmotifs:
😎 Cool montage: The Unidentified Flying Object (Remix) - Jean-Jacques Perrey and Gershon Kingsley
🫢 Gossip, misinformation, “game of telephone”, etc.: Gossipo Perpetuo - Jean-Jacques Perrey

🎼-anon
I SAW THE ANON AND- FIRST ANON TO HAVE AN EMOJI OMG. HELOO!! HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT CHRISTMAS! SORRY I ANSWERED THIS LIKE, LITERALLY THE NEXT YEAR LMAO. AIGHT, HERE WE GO!
I MATCH YOU UP WITH
BLOODY PAINTER / HELEN OTIS🎨
it is never clear what you feel log 1 - friends 🌹
A figure walked through the forest. Sticks and dried leaves crunch under his steps. Helen wasn't one to walk around in the evening. Usually, he'll be in his room painting or minding his own business. But, this has to be done. The artist block is at it again. Inspiration, that's why he's outside. + When he's blocked, he's not really in a good mood. + Walking around helps him to both relax and generate ideas A brown-haired female sat by the river. She sat with her legs crossed, her hands on her thighs separately. She breathed in and out, clearing her mind and calming her heart from the rage of disrespect. She huffed and she recalled the incident involving her and another civilian. Who the heck hits someone and glare at them?? You thought. You continue to breathe and watch the river water flow. The sparkling clear water gave you a magical feeling. Until the reflection of a masked man with a bloody smile on it appeared. You scream in shock. He laughed at your response and apologized for scaring you. + Is he a prankster? Sometimes. He can't beat BEN tho. + He doesn't hang out with you often. Due to his personality, you have to ask him to hangout. + Introverted ambivert. Yep. + If you two paint together at some point, please, aspect him to critic your art. BUT, it's in a form of helpful advice. "Why does the nose look like a crooked pyramid? You're supposed to make it look like this you ding dong..." Trust me, he helps out with your art. + As we all know…he is a lying jerk with a shell of a gentleman. Am I right? But when he’s currently doing art, like, when you interact with him when he’s painting or something, he’s the most honest at that time. (I hc him vent or act normal when he’s doing something he loves) ”so you’re saying, you’re never really cranky?” ”…Yeah..I am just usually feeling..confused with what I feel..so with that confusion..I feel unstable or lost..hence me being moody due to the mindset…” + Can he be poetic? Yes. If you wouldn’t mind playing the violin for him, he would make a poem at the same time. He’d ask you to play the same tune again and he will read the said poem.
and yet you show it log 2 - as lovers 💕
+ Who confessed first, him. Kinda. He's the type to do it anonymously yet in the cutest way possible. Love letters. Bam. + He loves writing them in ink. + Almost looks like an old pirate's letter. + His handwriting is gorgeous~ + He will try to tone down the lying thing for you. Trust me, he will and in a few months, he will only lie when necessary and not because he wants to or like to. + Did someone hurt you? Did someone make you cry? Believe me, that someone would wish they weren't even in god's mind to be made. + Will ask your permission to cuddle. + Forehead kisses when waking up! + He knows when you're uncomfortable. How? Because he is observant as hell. + Would ask you to be his model and he would do anything in return. + Will make scenarios with you "Imagine singing the song "Copycat" and somehow you change into a cat. Each time someone says 'copy', you get duplicated out of your will," "...what if someone says paste?" (get it?) + Would ask your opinions on his drawings "What do you think?" "...is that me sleeping?" "Yes," "But why draw me when I sleep?" "Because you're art 24/7, even if you're just sleeping, you make me feel butterflies," + Shakespear jokes.. + I see you two as this artistic couple. Very cooperative and lovely~
Sorry this took so long to post. I hope you like it! Please give feedback you don't mind!!

Hi! I’m conducting something. Can you please rank the games from best to worst? Exclude Dossiers but include both SCKS. It can just be a list. Please rank in order of personal enjoyment, not how well the game is made
Hell yeah!!!!
1. Curse of Blackmoor Manor - This game delivers the perfect balance of spooky atmosphere, explorative gameplay, rich environment (MANORS FTW), challenging-but-not-impossible puzzles, and a historical backstory that is SO richly detailed it often gets overlooked. The Penvellyn legacy is flawed and beautiful and the DETAIL within it, I just. Ugh. I get so emotional about this one. It’s amazing. Plus that soundtrack 👌🎼😍 and the fact that there's an entire roster of optional cutscenes that you genuinely, literally cannot predict with 100% accuracy gives this game a unique replayability unlike any other.
2. Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon - Amazing atmosphere and fantastic gameplay! It’s snoopy and interesting without much complication. The Jake+Camille story is tragically underrated, plus the Hardy boys are in it. Some of the series' best character dynamics imo, quality puzzles that aren't frustrating, decent exploration + expanding to new environments, one of the most iconic cutscenes in the series - ugh. Exquisite. There’s nothing about this game that I don’t like.
3. Danger on Deception Island - This game has one of my all-time FAVORITE atmospheres in anything, ever. Please cover me in DDI vibes because that's where I want to live. I stan a cute, misty seaside town where we get to explore local politics that play into the A-plot, which eventually delivers a mystery that ties up most loose ends and feels realistic and grounded in a surprising way. I think this is one of the most well-fleshed out mysteries in the series, and that’s part of why it ranks so high for me. It's also one of my strongest nostalgia games.
4. Ghost of Thornton Hall - I’m obsessed with the atmosphere in this game and there’s nothing I love more than A) ghosts, B) tragic backstory, and C) overhanging themes that are heavily represented within the game’s narrative. GOSH, it’s so well done. All the ambiguities and layers to both the story & characters - truly a work of art.
5. Sea of Darkness - The graphics are gorgeous and while it’s a little too puzzle-y for my tastes, there’s just something about this game that makes me want to play it over and over and over again (and I have).
6. The Final Scene - This was my #1 favorite up until a few years ago! The theatre, Nancy’s sass, Nick Falcone, and the Nick x Nancy bromance that forms are all top tier elements in this game, along with the intense race against the clock on day 3.
7. The Haunting of Castle Malloy - This is one of my most unpopular opinions lol but I LOVE this game. The setting is beautiful, the music is beautiful, and I actually enjoy most of the gameplay. It has, uhh... its extensions of disbelief😂, but I just genuinely love playing it so much that I don’t mind how whacky it is. AND THE CHEMICAL SORTING IS EASILY TOP 3 BEST ND PUZZLES OF ALL TIME. FIGHT ME. 👀😂
8. Alibi in Ashes - I’m surprised how much I’ve come to love this game over the years! The phone switching between characters is a pain in the you-know-what, but I love getting to know the town of River Heights and BESS IS ADORABLE. It’s just such a fun, cute game and it’s something different from the rest of the series. And I love getting to play detective at the police station 👀
9. Treasure in the Royal Tower - Truthfully I thought I would rank this one lower, but at the end of the day the atmosphere is just SO good. I don’t find the gameplay very compelling for the most part (although it definitely has its moments), plus I tend to finish this one in 3< hours, but MAN if that organ music doesn’t make me feel cozy! I love the historical elements, the mission to collect medallions, and the castle itself. It’s one of, if not THE top contender for nostalgia as well. 💜
10. Shadow at the Water’s Edge - I just really, really respect this game for how much it was able to deliver. There are so many events and scenes that add to both the game’s length and feeling of intensity. Also, have I mentioned how much I LOVE SCARY GAMES? I might rank this one lower, though, if not for my utter, starry-eyed admiration for how ambitious HeR was - and how well they pulled it off. other than those accents
11. Legend of the Crystal Skull - The bayou music makes me want to go live out on a swamp somewhere while slapping my knee all the day long. I just dig the vibe in this game. It’s also pretty meaty as far as length and gameplay. It has Henry Bolet, a VERY significant amount of Bess, gumbo, rainy atmosphere, and a balanced combo of puzzles that run the gamut between annoying and genuinely enjoyable.
12. White Wolf of Icicle Creek - I feel like ranking this game so high is an unpopular opinion?? But like with CRY, it’s actually a pretty meaty game. It has lots of length to it, plenty of things to discover and I’ve started to enjoy fox & geese in my more recent years 😉
13. The Haunted Carousel - I didn’t think I liked this game so much until my last playthrough. Joy Trent may be a party pooping stick in the mud, but everything else about this game is enjoyable for me! I just wish it were longer.
14. Danger By Design - I literally just came back and edited this post to put DAN ahead of WAC. This game has a lot of quirks, long phone calls and obnoxious puzzles, but it's a good length with some solid gameplay. The story unfolds in a way that feels solid and engaging.
15. Warnings at Waverly Academy - Love the music, love the academy, hate the homework. I also had REALLY high expectations before this game came out which kind of ruined the actual game for me. I always wish the atmosphere was less bouncy and gossipy and homework-oriented; more mysterious, spooky, and Poe-focused.
16. The Phantom of Venice - This one’s got substance. It’s fairly long and has a lot of good gameplay, but for some reason it falls JUST short of hitting in the way I want it to. 😕 However, the culprit's crime ring operation was TOP TIER criminal activity if I do say so myself. Easily the most impressive criminal plan since DDI.
17. The Captive Curse - I LOVE the music, the atmosphere, the setting, and Lukas - but I CAN’T STAND all the long, repetitive dialogue, and I can't stand talking to Anja. She’s one of the few ND characters that make me actually want to rip my hair out and I cannot explain why. Otherwise this game is really solid.
18. Secret of the Scarlet Hand - This used to be one of my least favorites bc of all the phone calls and confusing puzzles in the beginning (which, y’know, still valid), but I’ve come to REALLY LOVE the deep digging you do into the mystery. The finding/assembling parts of a key from around the world!! One of your suspects getting amnesia!! The way the theft is, in itself, a plot twist!! Working with Henrik to uncover clues, gradually progressing deeper into the museum’s temple exhibit - there’s SO MUCH good there!
19.  Message in a Haunted Mansion - Oh how I WISH I could rank this one higher, but I can't quite justify it. I LOVE the setting (Victorian mansion is one of my all-time favorite aesthetics) and the ghosts/hauntings and the Lizzie/Diego plot and the soundtrack, but its age really shows in its gameplay. I did, however, move this one up a few spaces since the last time I played it!
20.  The Secret of Shadow Ranch - One of my more unpopular opinions. This game is PEAK historical backplot👌 and I TRULY LOVE what they did there - it’s stunning, really. But I’m not personally into desert/ranch/horse vibes and it starts to feel like a chore simulator at times (plus, its map screen is the longest one in the series). Good game, but not the one for me.
21. Labyrinth of Lies - I like this game! I don’t love this game. I love GRIGOR. Grigor is one of the most interesting and complex characters in the entire series and I adore him. There’s way too much wacky shit going on in this game for me to rank it much higher, though. (props to the VAs for being absolute STARS👏)
22.  The Silent Spy - I wish I liked this game more than I do... but I don’t. Alec Fell is a gift and slowly working with Zoe at the end is p cool, I adore the music and the emotional element of Nancy’s mom - objectively it’s great!! But for some reason I’ve just never been able to get into it as much as a lot of the clue crew.
23. The Shattered Medallion - YES, MED REALLY DOES RANK THIS HIGH FOR ME, OKAY. IT’S A FUN GAME. Maybe not the most well-executed, but I ENJOY IT ANYWAY. 😂😅 Objectively I know it makes no sense as a Nancy Drew game, nor do I care for the portrayal of Sonny Joon, but as an experience it keeps me engaged.
24. Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake - This is another one that I would rank higher, but I truly h8 the bug catching / bird watching / Roman Numeral sorting. Otherwise, the Mickey Malone backplot is one of my faves and I dig those 1920′s speakeasy vibes ✌ it just feels for me like the game ends RIGHT after it gets interesting (i.e. getting into the speakeasy). If HeR had milked the 1920s aesthetic a little more, this one might be much higher for me.
25. The Deadly Device - I liked this game a lot more when it first came out than I do now. The cast dynamics at the lab are quality, but something about it feels... a little artificial to me? Plastic? IDK how to describe it! Haha. Some good puzzles and characters, but not one of my faves.
26. Secret of the Old Clock - I LOVE the music and the 1930′s aesthetic but that’s about it? Oh, and I like the pie puzzle bc I like looking at the pies LOL. The sewing was kind of fun, too, actually. OH AND JOSIAH CROWLEY WAS AN ICON WHO WAS AHEAD OF HIS TIME. But, the game itself still feels a little bare bones.
27. Stay Tuned For Danger - If I could justify ranking this one higher then I would, but, sigh. The graphics. The finnicky programming where if you miss one thing you’re done for. The picky navigation. It was great for HeR’s first *real* game with 3d characters, but it’s frustrating for me to replay. However... All Hail Dwayne Powers.
28. Secrets Can Kill (Remastered) - YOU SIMPLY CANNOT COMPARE JAKE ROGERS IN THIS GAME TO JAKE ROGERS IN THE OLD GAME. This - THIS game - is PEAK Jake Rogers, and for that alone, I have to heartily applaud. 👏👏👏
29. Trail of the Twister - I used to like this one more than I do now, but it really is just. Chores. Often chores that make no sense and have ZERO relevance to the plot. This game definitely feels like it was messily thrown together in the midst of HeR working on SCK2 and SAW. (BUT CHASE IS MY BBY AND I LOVE HIM FOREVER💕 and Pa deserves love)
30. Creature of Kapu Cave - The only reason this game has #31 and #32 beat is nostalgia. This is a super nostalgic game for me, and even though Joe looks terrifying I still deeply enjoy the Hardys’ presence. Aside from that, I enjoy snow cones and... idk what else.... lol but it’s not the worst.
31. Ransom of the Seven Ships - This game had potential tbh. I enjoy the music and sunny atmosphere, and it’s actually relatively long? But many of the puzzles can be cumbersome and the whole Johnny/John/Dwayne thing was a mess. And Nancy’s so chill about her best friend being kidnapped like wtf
32. Tomb of the Lost Queen - This is objectively a good game but I just don’t like it lol. I’ve never personally been big on Egyptology and soooo many of the puzzles are just... u g h. I hate talking to Abdullah, but Dylan and Jamila are great characters who have interesting dynamics w/ Nancy. But then, this is also the game that started the Sonny Joon arc that I lowkey resent.
33. Midnight in Salem - Oh, what could have been. But the GRAPHICS and the TALKING and the LACK OF SNOOPING and the NAVIGATION and I could go on but I won’t. If you played it, you know.
34. Secrets Can Kill (OG) - I’m sorry, I just can’t 😂 this is the only ND game that I will probably never play again.
