#noisy talky thoughts: musing

[munro-of-europa]

I still need to do the animated version but for now please take this.

Based on this tag that @strongfuck left in the thread, hehe.

[mxnro]

mustache or no ?

"Okay, I keep getting asked this ever since...Well forever, so I better get round to answering it!"

"I knew Rhys before he grew the moustache, so I'm in that weird timey where he's had both. Now, bearing in mind that no matter which look he has he always looks dashing and for want of a better term because the other term makes him uncomfortable, he looks absolutely debonair, dashing, devastatingly attractive, I could go on! In fact, I think I will-"

"- and that my friends is why I cannot choose which one I have a preference for! Rhys looks great with and without a moustache, but the moustache has definitely grown on me over time!"

TEAM BOTH. (But Stache is high up there)

(@strongfuck I had to tag you. lel)

[mxnro]

@strongfuck (sorry I had to)

love will always find you. Both threat AND promise

Senses and other Specifics:

WHAT DOES YOUR MUSE SMELL LIKE? DL smells like hairspray because the pink mohawk thingy can't keep itself upright. Nah not really, they smell like fresh laundry, ink on paper and petrichor. They do sometimes wear a fragrance but depending on what the situation may be, it's not very intense and it's quite gentle and at times metallic. The best example of this is Spacewalk by Demeter.

WHAT DO YOUR MUSE’S HANDS FEEL LIKE? Very warm unless they stick their hands in a freezer, and very dry palms. The backs of their hands however are super soft, much like the rest of their skin!

WHAT DOES YOUR MUSE USUALLY EAT IN A DAY? DL is by all means, a carbohydrate fiend. They have a lot of love for bread and pasta for some reason, the former because it can be soft or crunchy and they love textures- the latter because pasta if done right can go with everything. They actually don't like to eat in front of other people, and they're very reserved about what they do eat on account of their size (they're small in height but they are what is considered plus size). Because people can be and are assholes. However, coming from a colony like Europa where everything was beige coloured, DL likes to include colours in whatever they eat.

DOES YOUR MUSE HAVE A GOOD SINGING VOICE? They trained to be a classical singer and working for [REDACTED], they were initially hired to be a singer in night clubs and bars. If I had to compare a singer to their voice now, as they're in their mid-30s, they'd sound like Alison Moyet- but they don't sing much, unless they're asked to. Nicely.

DOES YOUR MUSE HAVE ANY BAD HABITS OR NERVOUS TICKS? YES BECAUSE DL IS BY AND LARGE A NERVOUS FOOLE. Their most well known one is clearing their throat and talking with their hands. They'll also find whatever item that's in their pocket and fidget with it in their hands, it could be a golf ball- it could be a radioactive space rock- it could be anything! The crunchier sounding, the better.

WHAT DOES YOUR MUSE USUALLY LOOK LIKE / WEAR? DL WEARS WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY FEEL LIKE. Actually, they wear what could be described as 'assaulted by a wardrobe' 90% of the time they're around and awake. When they're not actively doing things, it's just a big shirt, an even bigger hoodie and casual things. Usually cuddly type material.

IS YOUR MUSE AFFECTIONATE? HOW SO? They may be shy as fuck, but DL once they get comfortable around someone they can get affectionate! In fact they love it. They adore it, both giving and receiving. Their language of affection is hugs, for anyone. However because of their experiences, they force themselves to be more reserved, because they worry they're a big fuckin' weirdo or they'll creep someone out by being affectionate. So they have to get that side brought out, whether that be in a platonic or romantic context.

WHAT POSITION DOES YOUR MUSE SLEEP IN? When alone, they'll sleep like a starfish, on their back because they like space sometimes. HOWEVER, they like to cuddle up to people if it's a romantic partner- and they prefer to be the bigger spoon, the jetpack if you will.

COULD YOU HEAR YOUR MUSE IN THE HALLWAY FROM ANOTHER ROOM? Surprisingly, no! They're very quiet in how they move and speak- unless they're excited about something then you'll be able to hear them from a million-mile radius.

[munro-of-europa]

Gonna share with you some writing I'm doing. This will go on my self ship sideblog, so you won't see the majority of it, but this is the first thing I've written since my breakdown lmao

THERE'S NUTHIN LIKE SOME HEARTBREAKINGLY SAD STUFF

[mxnro]

Where should YOU be kissed?

forehead.

over-worrying and overthinking everything, your mind is always a whirling storm. no matter how you try, the fears overwhelm all else. you need someone trusted to press a kiss to your forehead, helping to quiet the thoughts that just refuse to settle.

Technically this was a tag by seeing but I asked first so tagging @strongfuck because I wanted to do one with DL. I’m gonna tag: @the-expatriate , @icangiveyouanything , and anyone else who wants to do it or something.

[mxnro]

@strongfuck [I AM HOWLING SORRY FOR THE TAG I HAD TO HAHA it’s literally them two]

[mxnro]

Not me writing another ficlet but this time I was inspired by this thanks @strongfuck

[mxnro]

BECAUSE @strongfuck is A BAD INFLUENCE I was inspired to talk about the things that DL loves and hates being called.

❤️: baby, darling, starlight, sweet thing.

❌️: little. They fucking hate being called little.

[mxnro]

Friendly reminder that this was DL way back when the BL3 trailer was dropped and my self ship blog at the time was inundated with YA BOY HAS A MOUSTACHE NOW HAHA asks.

I like doing meme redraws like this. I should do some more some time. 😊

[munro-of-europa]

Five songs that remind you of your muse.

I was tagged by @strongfuck and I LOVE music memes like this so thank you!

Tagging: @the-expatriate, @shinigxmi-muses, and anyone else! ❤️

To the Moon and Back by Savage Garden

There's a lot of background to DL, and the one thing that is an important part of their character is that they escaped. They escaped a bad situation, but it's left them shattered and bitter and wary of everyone. You wouldn't think that, given their jovial and friendly approach. Sometimes, it feels like they're waiting for the right person to arrive and not necessarily take it all away and magic them better, but make them feel less alone and unprepared.

Georgy Porgy by TOTO

This doesn't really have a whole bunch of backstory to it, but it is the song that DL used to sing a lot when they worked as a singer for [REDACTED]. It was what you'd call their signature song.

Hello Hooray by Alice Cooper

DL is a character of many facets. This is one of those facets where they are a lot more confident in themselves. They've got a lot to show, and they have an extremely well-known reputation for being extremely good at what they do. You'd have to have some shred of confidence if you're able to take mega corporations out from the inside out with the right kind of knowledge. This is the song that hypes them up.

Non Believer by London Grammar

One line in this song sums up the big reason why DL left Europa, [REDACTED], and everything that went with it.

'Give you my all and you're taking my everything.'

I'll let you be the judge of what this means.

Astronomy by Blue Öyster Cult

It's not a big secret that DL is a lover of the strange and occult. However, this song is about people who seek knowledge from another person. DL could easily be considered the 'Desdinova' in many many situations. The broker, especially while working with and for Atlas, is very much the person you can see if you want knowledge, information, and many more things besides.

Also, I think this song has a nice piano start.

[munro-of-europa]

What's your duality?

god-hungry scientist and their abominable child.

you stitched something together inside of yourself and gave it life with light from the sky and now it won't die it and you can't kill it because part of you loves it and you're not quite right in the head or the person you used to be but at the end of the day it's simply a beast of sadness. you crave the mercy you didn't get from your creators, and so i'm telling you, please forgive yourself. please hold the monster by the hand.

When am I

[mxnro]

👀 ‘mx munro, can you tell me what people find attractive about yourself?’

“How the fuck am I supposed to know that? I know stuff, I break down people from the inside with all sorts of information and knowledge. I’m not a fuckin’ person who thinks about those things.

If you really want to ask, ask him.’

[mxnro]

[I don't often put things like this up, but this song is literally what Europa was like. If DL had to go with a singing voice claim, it would have been the late and great Victoria Wood. She was one of my fave comedians ❤️]

[mxnro]

TELL RHYS YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM FOR GOD'S SAKE whats the worst he could say? :3c

"Hey, listen pal i did tell him and I even pulled him down for a kiss (but that's because he asked for one) but FEELINGS ARE HARD!? I don't get crushes on people much. HARD WEIRD WEIRD!"
