#ok on that kill your darlings thing: im trying to be more sparing in my prose than long-winded

oh dam im getting flashbacks (inna good way bcs this is waaaay less bloody than compressing my thoughts into a coherent essay)
tagging @jessamine-rose 😇😇 bcs i gotta see what u see urself as aheh
from first glance, i thought of myself as a sketcher? especially knowing how i need some sort of outline to stay on track and get the fic finished. but if a random branching idea is enticing enough, i make it its own separate doc (to be worked on NEVER jk). looking back on my fics i don't think i've ever really made too big revisions, like at most i just rearrange story beats to flow better. any slashes i've made are usually story beats in the outline itself and not for full-on scenes. (thats becs im a sentimental hoe who can't kill her darlings) sometimes i like a sentence ive made and i will fight tooth and nail to keep her in, i should change that 🤔 but eehhhh not gonna happen anytime soon
the more i think about it, i'm probably more of a bricklayer with a mix of that mind-planning from watercolorist. a lot of what i type tends to stay (mostly) the same, but i can't ever write in one sitting. (or i can, but i'll hate what i'll write. i need to sleep on the wip for a bit before deciding if it's passable). though, instead of writing linearly, i like to jump from beat to beat in the wip. For me, it lessens the overall burden of finishing the fic because my brain can then treat the hard bits as just "bridging the scenes together."
i think this writing tic^ might come from the time i had to learn about playwriting, where we were only constrained to 10 pages (of dialogue, loosely equivalent to 10 minutes). so our professor encouraged us to start from the ending and then backtrack a bit, just so that we were writing something substantial instead of ending up with too much exposition (and this kinda backfired on me with fics like wcidfy, becs i still don't know how to end it and there's a loooot of exposition there...but idc, i like slow slice-of-life and meandering in a character's thoughts. it adds spice to the plot and it makes the world feel lived-in /shrug)
and, call it my sense of ego, but i like keeping some of my writing a bit raw with minimal editing, it makes me feel like there's always going to be an improvement with any subsequent fanfic i write.
Tag yourselves, I'm curious to see which ones of these would resonate with y'all 👀
For me, when it comes to fic I'm mostly an oil painter - though the longer the work, the more the architect may come more into play, as well.
Generally, it's very much a process of slapping down random snippets and lines, and regurgitating them into a coherent whole, whittling down into more and more detail as I go. Very much a top down thing (unless I get sidetracked by fiddling with a random sentence or something).
However, the last time I did a proper longfic so many eons ago I had plans for like 10 chapters ahead of what I'd posted. So I didn't perhaps have a detailed plan for the whole work, but I definitely knew where I was headed with any particular chapter (unless the characters really decided they wanted to go elsewhere, oop).
Though depending on the situation I can certainly see some elements of all of these - sometimes the idea just comes together and you can just plop it down. Still, typically the process is more iterative (and ruminative) for me.
Also tagging some folks who I'm aware have done some writing, though I'm happy to hear anyone's thoughts! @diodellet @moonyasnow @crystallizsch
#SKETCHER THE SHOE??!??!? jk#ok on that kill your darlings thing: im trying to be more sparing in my prose than long-winded#(and it burns so much goddt. i hate being concise)#and re that minimal editing thing: i have this irrational thought that#if someone gets bugged by the little imperfections of my writing#then theyll get pushed into writing their own scenario#its like i hope to contribute to this weird kind of symbiosis with my writing lmao (spite u wonderful motivator u🥴)#yall outliners scare me. i get overwhelmed with all the information i have to sort through if my outline gets bigger than intended#(esp after making a doc for the yuusona owmagah...its like a hydra theres no end to her)#dellet-asides

Ok....you and I are both sluts for royalty. 😉👌🏿 Im going to make a request for Royalty. Ive been in a very creepy comfort mood. How about some of that?
Nony, you sent this forever ago! School occupies a lot of my time, but cheers to Christmas break, right?! And, cheers to royalty .
***********
The queen swirled the wine in her cup impatiently. The liquid inside changed colour with every singular revolution. It was still wine in taste and matter, of course, but the constant change in appearance was alarming to anyone non-magical. As for the queen, the colour change was the only thing keeping her from walking out of the dining room due to pure boredom.
"Interaction? Never heard of it," the queen sighed. She was awfully miserable. Usually her prey begged to be released. Or at least spared of death. Of course, they always walked in already dying. The dying were the queen's toy things. The already dying came often enough that the little bit of life essence they had to offer went a long way between victims.
"Does it hurt?" The man spoke in fear, putting no effort in hiding it. She would have been able to sense it anyhow. Nothing hid from the queen. It could try, but according to the people, she was a goddess. She. Knew. Everything.
"Of course it does, darling. Have you heard otherwise?" The man, named Callisto, pushed his food around the plate with his fork. He swallowed down his anxiety several times, but never succeeded in making it go fully away. "You realize that no man, woman, child, or pet walks into my rooms and leaves, yes?"
"I have acknowledged that fact, yes." He coughed a few times, letting his silverware clash together as he dropped them. Once his fit was over, and to much of the queen's surprise, he spoke again. "I have also acknowledged the fact that you only take the barely living. It's part of the pact, isn't it?"
"Close. I applaud you for trying." And she did. She set her glass down and began clapping until the wine returned to it's original colour. "I take the dying. Never the dead, never the fully living. You are part of my lands. You know this and yet you question it."
"I am not quest-" He coughed three or four times and the queen raised an eyebrow. He continued, "I am not questioning anything although maybe you should question yourself. The pact you made- If you kill me, you'll be breaking that pact. You'll be sought after."
"Me?" she laughed viciously. She threw back her head, taking an impossibly large gulp of wine. "The Sorceress Queen of Scarsius? Being sought after by a kingdom of mortal nothings? Tell me, Callisto, who do you think would win that fight? If you're not sure, I will tell you." Callisto bit his tongue. He was already scared of the own words coming out of his mouth. When when the queen finally decide to strike? "I do have a question for you, daring man."
"And it is?" He barely got through the phrase without breaking into another fit.
"I want to hear who says you're not dying," she explained and before Callisto even had the chance to mutter the first letter of his words, she explored a bit more. "You have a small sickness, yes. One that everyone seems to survive; you have a cold. However, does that change the fact that your body is battling some sort of germs, bacteria, disease? In this moment, you are alive, but you are fighting death. Does that not make you dying?"
"You said it yourself though. You said it. People survive it. It's a cold, my queen. A cold is all!"
"You. Are still. Dying. Get that through your sickened brain, will you? I will give you until tomorrow to prove your cleanliness. Sound fair? Good."
Something in the air changed then, something that could be detected by any living, or dying, creature. Everything simply felt heavier, like there was a thick blanket hovering over everyone's heads, stripping the air and smothering everyone with its humidity beneath.
"You'll spare me if I prove myself?"
"Of course! That's what I said, isn't it?" The Queen stood then, and walked with long strides, heels clicking lightly, as she made her way to Callisto. "And I'll do you one better," she said, touching his chin ever so lightly and guiding it up until he was looking directly into the sorceress' eyes. "I'll spare you even if you don't." Only she could know what was in store for poor Callisto, the man who only suffered a cold.
*****
I'm not sure if this is quite what you wanted and hopefully you still see it after all this time! If anyone has anymore asks, I'm more than willing to write it! Much love ♡♡

Hi Aurora okay first tysm for your blog It's so lovely to have another person so passionate about my fave things (i.e hp and period dramas) Anyway, i recently read the HP series (again) and found myself feeling SO MUCH. I genuinely teared up at so many different touching parts and I was just wondering what are your favorite most heart-wrenching/emotional parts from the books? I realize this is a lengthy quesition so feel free to never answer this or take a year.
ye S SS i love being passionate ab things and sharing that passion w my followers!!!!! i love yall esp when u ask me questions like this where i get to talk ab my fave things everrrrrrrrr (ps thank u so much for letting me take forever to answer this ur so cute to say that ilysm)
ok so literally i will cry my way thru the entire series when i reread bc harry potter has so much emotional weight for me and so many memories that go along with it. but i decided to limit myself to just 10 bc otherwise id be sitting here typing all day. so w/o further ado:
AURORA’S TOP 10 MOST TEARFUL HARRY POTTER MOMENTS:
((in no particular order))
HARRY READS LILY’S LETTER IN DH: listen harry doesnt actually spend a lot of the books angsting over the fact that he doesnt have parents but in moments like this u remember he IS AN ORPHAN AND IT GETS ME SO HARD. fuk like just picturing harry crouched on the floor of sirius’s bedroom reading that letter… rereading it… crying… wow.gif!!!!! the line that makes me cry eveRY TIME is “She had made her g’s the same way he did : he searched through the letter for every one of them, and each felt like a friendly little wave glimpsed from behind a veil.“ LIKE RIP RIP RIP ABORT ABORT ABORT ITS TOO SAD!!!!!
THE LOST PROPHECY IN OOTP: JESSESCREAMING.JPEG!!!!!!!!!!!! listen ,,, i talk ab this chapter so much on my blog. it is my #1 favorite moment in my #1 favorite harry potter book which is my #1 favorite series of all time. SO ITS A PRETTY BIG DEAL. harry’s reaction to sirius’s death… his anger at dumbledore… his grief… his discovery of his fate… its beautiful writing and its so painful but so amazing to read. LIKE!!!!! MY BABY!!! HE’S LOST SO MANY PEOPLE!!!!!!!! MY SWEET SUMMER CHILD!!!!!!!!!! “I DON’T CARE!“ Harry yelled at them, snatching up a lunascope and throwing it into the fireplace. “I’VE HAD ENOUGH, I’VE SEEN ENOUGH, I WANT OUT, I WANT IT TO END, I DON’T CARE ANYMORE!” “You do care,” said Dumbledore. He had not flinched or made a single move to stop Harry demolishing his office. His expression was calm, almost detached. “You care so much you feel as though you will bleed to death with the pain of it.”” LIKE LITERALLY WHEN I GET TO THIS POINT I HAVE TO TAKE A BREAK BC IM CRYING SO MUCH I CANT MAKE OUT THE WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!! also fun story: one time i was listening to ootp on audiobook while on vacation and we were in the car waiting to taxi on to a ferry boat and we were listening to this chapter when the ferry guy came by to take our tickets and i had like TEARS STREAMING DOWN MY FACE and jim dale is yelling as harry in the background…. the guy was like ‘is this bitch ok??’ lmaOOOOo
HARRY AND THE MIRROR OF ERISED IN SS: this is another one of those moments where you remember that harry is an orphan and its /so/ painful. thinking about this teeny 11 year old baby harry sneaking out every night just to sit in front of this mirror so he can see his parents………my darling baby sweetheart i love him So Much. it just makes me so sad like hes /so young/ AND HE JUST WANTS TO SEE HIS PARENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHH!! it also gives way to one of my all time favorite hp quotes: “It does not do well to dwell on dreams and forget to live.”
HARRY STOPS SIRIUS AND LUPIN FROM KILLING PETER IN POA: me reading this part is literally ISAYTHATSMYBABYANDIMREALLYPROUD.GIF!!!!!! like!! my boy!! he finds out this man literally caused the death of his parents and he MAKES THE GROWN ASS ADULTS SPARE HIS LIFE… LIKE… he literally acts twice his age and is so mature and is just…….so amazing. it shows such strength and wisdom and it makes me SO PROUD. the way he references james also makes me cry because you see the relationship harry has with james even though he’s literally never met him and its so beautiful. i love harry so much.
HARRY AFTER SECTUMSEMPER-ING MALFOY IN HBP: this is literally the opposite of that last one where im so proud of harry this is def… not one of his best moments lol. he rly rly fucks up and his guilt is so raw and it makes me so emotional because i feel SO bad for him. its def an important harry moment in the books because it shows his flaws and the consequences of his rage, but it also shows how GOOD he is because he feels so bad about what happens and like willingly takes his punishment even though it means that he cant play in the quidditch match. he really like… atones and even tho its rough to read i def love that its a part of the series bc its a really like watershed moment for harry and i think it really reminds him of the wizard he wants to be. this part also leads to i think a more satisfying harry/ginny first kiss bc ginny defends harry and then him not going to the game leads to “several sunlit days” AKA ONE OF MY FAVE HP MOMENTS EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
HARRY AND HERMIONE VISIT JAMES AND LILY’S GRAVE IN DH: “But they were not living, thought Harry: They were gone. The empty words could not disguise the fact that his parents’ moldering remains lay beneath snow and stone, indifferent, unknowing.And tears came before he could stop them, boiling hot then instantly freezing on his face, and what was the point in wiping them off or pretending? He let them fall, his lips pressed hard together, looking down at the thick snow hiding from his eyes the place where the last of Lily and James lay, bones now, surely, or dust, not knowing or caring that their living son stood so near, his heart still beating, alive because of their sacrifice and close to wishing, at this moment, that he was sleeping under the snow with them.” THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS THAT I HAVE TO STOP READING BC IM CRYING SO MUCH I CANT MAKE OUT THE WORDS ANYMORE. I CRIED TYPING THIS. IM SO SAD.
THE FOREST AGAIN IN DH: hoo boy. hoooooo boy this is a Big One. this one is really…. wow. just. wow. [deep breath]. there is So Much in this chapter that makes me cry where do i even START. harry realizing that he has to die and ACCEPTING IT BRAVELY LIKE THE HERO HE IS. “Why had he never appreciate what a miracle he was, brain and nerve and bounding heart?” im crying….. hes so good. HARRY NEARLY STOPPING WHEN HE SEES GINNY and ginny’s crying and comforting some girl and im crying too. JAMES. SIRIUS. LILY. REMUS. WHEN HARRY ASKS IF IT HURTS TO DIE LIKE LITEARLLY I HAVE TO PUT THE BOOK DOWN AND GET UP AND WLAK AROUND THE ROOM BECAUSE I GET SO EMOTIONAL LIKE. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! when harry sees harry and screams at him ……………… rip in pieces me!!!!!!!! ALSO ONE OF HIS LAST THOUGHTS BEFORE THE AVADA KEDAVRA IS OF GINNY AND KISSING HER……….. [GUNSHOTS] [SCREAMING]
BELLATRIX TORTURES HERMIONE IN DH: fuk this scene is no joke scary like it took harry potter to another level of real darkness. hermione being tortured was so chilling like beautiufl amazing smart snarky hermione it was so painful to read like my heart rate goes up when i read it bc im worried for my girl :/ and ron is sHAKING and like screaming and literally throwing himself at the walls to try to get to her and its SO upsetting like. they are still CHILDREN like theyre all so young and they dont deserve this like. hearing her plead and stuff … its just…. too much. these are my CHILDREN i have to PROTECT them.
HARRY DIGS DOBBYS GRAVE IN DH: this is another one of those harry moments where i just want to give him a huge hug. like he insists on digging dobby’s grave by hand which is just ..... [gets choked up] its fine. and his thoughts while he dig make me so sad. he so /tired/. hes so frustrated with dumbledore and he the hallows and the horcruxes and he feels responsible for what happened. and ron coming out and helping him dig silently makes me so happy and its one of those times u really see how much rons friendship means to harry. and harry comes out of this like ... older and more mature? his wisdom and knowledge is rly apparent when he talks with griphook and olivander right after this like. he knows what hes going to do. hes made his choice. hes not going to race voldemort for the wand. i love him so much for that choice. hes such a grown man in this part like accepting responsibility, taking care of hermione and everyone like getting things in order. i love him.
MRS WEALSEY HUGS HARRY IN THE HOSPITAL WING IN GOF: “’It wasn’t your fault, Harry,’ Mrs. Weasley whispered. ‘I told him to take the cup with me,’ said Harry. Now the burning feeling was in his throat too. He wished Ron would look away. Mrs. Weasley set the potion down on the bedside cabinet, bent down, and put her arms around Harry. He had no memory of ever being hugged like this, as though by a mother. The full weight of everything he had seen that night seemed to fall in upon him as Mrs. Weasley held him to her. His mothers face, his father’s voice, the sight of Cedric, dead on the ground all started spinning in his head until he could hardly bear it, until he was screwing up his face against the howl of misery fighting to get out of him.” HARRY POTTER DESERVES MORE HUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he feels so guilty about cedric and god bless mrs weasley for telling him it wasnt his fault because it WASNT!!! he did so amazing in the graveyard like.. .he saw voldemort return and he fought him and he survived and he saw his paretns and hE TOOK CEDRICS BODY BACK SO IT COULD BE WITH HIS FAMILY!!!!!!!! HE TOOK IT BACK FOR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would die a thousand deaths if it meant that harry didnt have to experience this pain!!!!
whew so there we go!!!!! the bottom line is obviously that i love the harry potter series more than anything and specifically i love the boy harry potter so so SO much and his suffering is agonizing to read and he didnt deserve any of it!!! i can litearlly think of SO many more heartbreaking moments in the series but here are just a handful. happy birthday to harry!!!

Responses to {Part 19} I Won’t Stop You // Jeon Jungkook, Vampire!AU Asks~
Please ‘Keep Reading’ to find my response to your ask ^^ As always, I have copied and pasted all asks into this post in regards to last night’s chapter to avoid clogging up people’s dashboards and to avoid spoilers for those who may still wish to read the chapter. Thank you ^^
@jynxy24 said: I CANNOT WAIT FOR YOONGI'S AND READER'S INTERACTION OMG THE ANGTS WILL BE COMING! Will there be gore tho? @-@
Although there wasn’t an interaction between Yoongi and the reader last night...there will be blood!
Anonymous said: I feel like Jungkook's mum will laugh at her saying 'its dracula'
It more so bothered her because it gave her an incline that the reader knows something or has a preconceived idea^^
Anonymous said: A small part of me hopes the series never ever end (even tho i am shit at suspense) because currently , tuesday is the highlight of my entire week
Well it won’t be ending soon! I can promise you that ^^ There is still a LOT to happen ^^ hehe, thank you so much my dear :)

Ahhh that’s okay you can always just catch up when you get home my love! I hope you enjoy it when you get a spare moment to read it, thank you and I love you too!
Anonymous said: Serrena has zero chill and I love her for it. Also Yoongi is my bias but honestly he might need some ice.😂 The only reason I can think of as to why Yoongi would need y/n is that he plans to turn random (or not so random) people and have her mature them quickly so he can make an army but I just remembered that he was surprised that Jimin was not a natum lamia anymore so he can't have known about that so I have no other theories😪
Ahh thank you so much for loving her character! *giggles* what an interesting theory though, I like that! muahaha~ Thank you for reading it and I hope it didn’t disappoint ^^
@omelys-space said: The new update was bomb ❤ Serrena is such a bad ass and I love her for it 😍😍😍 The way she handled Yoongi was gold I am so excited to see some more backstory on Jin, Hobi and especially Joonie as he seemed so different from the other two and what kind of human or whatever y/n is and how she will react upon hearing that her lover is a vampire Looking foreward to next week 😊 Thank you for your hard and amazing work ❤
Thank you so much for liking it and Serrena’s character! And yes, I really loved the way she handled Yoongi too - it truly was a silent battle haha ^^ In future chapters, there will be more backstory on the other Rogues, but it will go MORE in depth with Namjoon I suppose ^^ Those three are truly side-characters in this series, but Namjoon is the more dominant character of the three I think ^^ Thank you so much for reading and I hope you’ll enjoy the next one too!
@kookies-hoe said: ASDFGHJKLZXCVBNM DAYUM THAT CHAPTER MADE ME STAY AT THE EDGE OF MY SEAT, I LOVE YOUR WRITING SO MUCH!!!
I’m glad it kept you on the edge of your seat yay! Thank you so much for reading it, it means a lot to me! ^^
Anonymous said: MAMA SERENA FTW!! Also if Yoongi DOES know what I am (which I can't to find out next week hopefully), wouldn't he know ALL my powers, like how I turned Chimchim into a full vampire? And I love how Yoongi legit walked in there without a plan. XD ME
It appears that EVERYONE seems to know SOMETHING about her. The question is; are they all correct? Is each person missing a vital piece of information? Will Serrena be able to provide answers? Who knows :3 hehe AND HONESTLY SAME THAT’S SOMETHING I’D DO haha. He didn’t plan on the reader recognising him - that was the flaw in his plan. ^^ Thank you so much for reading it dear!
Anonymous said: How long are u gonna keep me waiting author nim?:( I need to know what she is!Your weiting gives me chills... I feel so frustrated I WANNA KNKWWWW
I will keep teasing you until you can’t take it any more ;D Hehe~~ Thank you for reading the new chapter!

Hehehe did I cause doubt for you? c: GOOD! ^^ And I know right? Poor Namjoon >< Altho, the thought of Namjoon calling Yoongi ‘master’ does things to me hahaha c: I’m dirty, sorry :P Thank you so much for reading lovely!
Anonymous said: Ohmaigawsh... Serrena in IWST part 19.... #momgoals... Usually, I'm a faithful jungkook stan, but gurl after this part, Namjoon's becoming a bias wrecker. That was beautiful. I hope you can hear my applause all the way from the US. <3
She is mum goals for sure! She actually reminds me a lot of my mum - that’s exactly her personality sometimes lol UH OH HIDE YOUR KIDS HDE YOUR WIFE NAMJOON’S COMING TO WRECK YAAA~ lolol ^^ Thank you so much my love, I’m really happy that you enjoyed the update ^^
@audreymv said: I am so freking like what?? Yoongi knows something and poor Namjoon, i hope he doesnt get hurt. Such a sweetheart. Dayumm Mom got sass, the queen i bow down to. Amazing as always. This is just too much and i love this so much. I hope we can see who (y/n) really is like what is the specialness. Gosh like i am getting answers but im not. Sara you are a art piece in itself
I think everyone thinks they know a little bit about her (as in, the characters in the story), but ultimately, they are all missing pieces of information. But with Serrena’s knowledge, hopefully she can set the record straight! As always, thank you so much for your amazing words, you really made me smile so much with that ^^ haha thank you for reading and I hope you’ll look forward to next week!
@mysr3 said: Saraaa!! what have you done! You just dragged me and left me hanging craving for more again! But this time the craving is so strong OMG! Breathtaking the whole chapter 19! Serrena is a badass Queen; Love Jungkook and Taehyung protectivness >< so heartwarming; Yoongi's smart ass character supposed to be hated but I just fell for it with a sympathy for him somehow ><, but tons of sympathy for Namjoon. Ahh so many feeling! Cant wait!! Sara well written and well detailed! Thank you Love ღღღ (cont.) PS Love the way you carried on the story even if it torture me to wait to know all the secrets. Its just so hard to guess or pin point what is the real reason behind the whole things. I just feel there will be big reveal of some sorts that will surprised everyone! Right??
I think there is an element of sadness for both Yoongi and Namjoon, because it’s kind of like the souls who lost their way a little? At least that’s what I feel sometimes ^^ And you’re 100% right! There will be a big reveal, but even at that - more will be revealed as time goes on because....well, you’ll see ;D hehe! Thank you so much for reading and I’m really happy you enjoyed it!
@fashionkilla124 said: Honestly Serrena is the most savage female vampire I have ever read about and I LOVE IT . I'm ready just to die and be revived for the next chapter because this is some next level shit going on and Im not ready . I had a stroke mid story and I had to collect myself. You are a really great writer and if you ever published a book and had a fan signing I would be first in line cuz yo stories be LITTT AF☺️☺️☺️😏👌😘😘
Ahhh thank you so much for loving her character! I’m sorry you experienced such health issues while reading hehe :P Thank you so much for your amazing compliments, they really make me smile and make me feel very happy ^^ Omg fan signing IN MY DREAMS lol but thank you for reading and I’m happy that you enjoyed the chapter :3
Anonymous said: AHHHH FUCK THIS CHAPTER WAS SO GOOD I'M CRYING???? SERENA IS AN ACTUAL BAD ASS OMG SHE'S ONE OF MY FAVE CHARACTERS NOW I LOVE IT SO MUCH GOOD JOB ON WRITING OMG
Ahhh thank you so much my dear!^^ I’m so happy that you love her character :3 Thank you for reading and enjoying it so much!!
@theninjachan said: Your updates for "I Won't Stop You" are always on time and the latest update was amazing as always. You are now my favorite Tumblr writer. 💘
Thank you so much for that, I feel honoured that you think that about me and I hope to continue making stuff that you find exciting and enjoyable to read my love ^^

Your Tuesday story updates always make me excited for Tuesdays! Like, I'll suddenly realize it's Tuesday which means IWSY update!!!

ok Lover has me shook
So yes, in the last couple of hours since the release of Taylor’s seventh, wonderfully written, and fully OWNED album I’ve scattered and listened for my favorite parts of each song and decide to share because it is necessary ok????cool here we go.
ps. the songs are not in order because I am a mess and it shows LLOOOOOLLL
False God. (13)
religion’s in your lips, even if it’s a false God, we’d still worship. We might get away with it. The altar is my hips.
I know heaven is a thing. I go there when you touch me honey, hell is when I’m fighting with you.
first of all I need an ambulance because when Taylor references anything sexual it does things to me cause OMG YES MAAM. The altar part had me ON THE FLOOR and the heaven and hell made me a new person.
Paper Rings. (8)
I want to drive away with you, I want your complications too, I want your dreary Mondays, wrap your arms around me baby boy
When I got home I tried to stalk you on the internet, now I’ve read all the books beside your bed.
Now I wake up at night and watch you breath.
You’re the one I want; in paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dream (in all my dreams)
this songs makes me SOFT ok ???? the little insights we get about her relationship make feel I don't know lucky?? like I know she is sharing this with the whole world but still?? like how sweet is this ??? like she went from wanting to know everything about him after they met to now knowing all of the books he reads in his spare time. I can't handle this my poor HEARTTTTT
Cornelia Street. (9)
We were a fresh page on the desk, filling in the blanks as we go.As if the streetlights pointed in an arrowhead, leading as home.
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends. I’d never walk Cornelia street again. That’s thinking of heartbreak time could never mend.
Barefoot in the kitchen, sacred new beginnings that became my religion, listen.
So barefoot in the kitchen ???? Im sorry but after the master piece that is All Too Well I’ve realized that to Tay Tay kitchens are internet places she shares sweet moments with people she loves and the fact that they're barefoot?? just shows how at home and intimate that moment is. Excuse me while I go cry in the corner thx.
London Boy. (11)
But something happened, I heard him laughing. I saw the dimples first and then I heard the accent. They say home is where the heart is but thats not where mine lives (but god I love the English)
Like a child when our eyes meet. Darling I fancy you.
So I guess the rumors are true. You know I love a London boy.
first of all. IS THAT HIM AT THE BEGINING ???? cause maam i know understand the accent thing good lord. Second. I know she loves him but the fact that she plainly says it in a song??? im crying and so so happy for her. LASTLY how does one stay calm after taylor swit writes a song about you like that?? like i need to know hoe Joe reacted cause holy shit. ALSO THIS SONG IS SUCH A BOP.
Death by a Thousand Cuts. (10)
Cause the morning comes and you’re not my baby.
But if the story is over why I’m I still writing pages?
My heart, my hips, my body, my love. I’m still trying to find a part of me you didn't touch.
Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand, paper cut stings from my paper thins plans.
Gave you so much, but it wasn’t enough. But I’ll be alright, It’s juts death by a thousand cuts.
her mind y'all. her lyrics??? even more so. like the way taylor writes just amazes me, the way she puts words together that hurt ?? that make you smile?? and cry?? that woman has a gift and is A gift. also guys. the writing pages part touched my little heart. cause i felt that.
Afterglow. (15)
Fighting with a true love is boxing with no gloves.
Why’d I have to break what I love so much?
I’m the one who burned this down. But it’s not what I meant. Sorry that I hurt you, I don't wanna do this to you, I don't want to lose this with you.
It’s so excruciating to see you low, just want to lift you up and never let you go.
Tell me I am all you want, even when I break your heart.
this song broke my heart a little. so much damn vulnerability in these lyrics give me chills. she's so open and i HURTTTT. like he's in pain and she's in pain because of that and now im in pain because of them and once again crying and omg what’s new. nothings new. Im crying over one of taylor’s songs again.
Daylight. (18)
I’ll tell you the truth, but never goodbye.
I wounded the good, but trust the wicked. Clearing the air, I breathed in the smoke.
I can still see it all in my mind. All of you, all of me intertwined. I once believed love would be black and white. But it’s golden
I can still see it all in my head. Back-and-Forth from New York, sneaking in your bed. I once believed that love would be burning red like its golden.
I want to be defined by the things I love not the things I hate. Not the things that I’m afraid of. I’m afraid of the things that haunt me in the middle of the night.
I just think that You Are What You Love.
the fact that this song is what closes the album makes me emo. its such a wonderful conclusion and such and explanation of the last couple of years and the reference to RED??? I was NOT prepared. Also the last line tugged at my heart strings because I believe that with every little fiber of my being.
Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince. (7)
American Glory faded before me, Now I’m feeling hopeless.
My team is losing, battered and bruising. I see the high fives between the bad guys.
Boys will be boys then. Where are the wise men? Darling, I’m scared.
Cause I know this is a fight, that some day we’re gonna win.
y'all. I am so so so proud of the fact that Taylor now uses her platform to speak about what she believes is right and wrong. she no longer story quiet. she backs up her people and advocates and that is so so so important in todays world. because people listen, and people watch and sometimes they need that someone to speak up so they can know whats happening out there. and the political message of this song got me. America is a mess, and as a person that lives in one its states im scared. but this song gives me hope. cause eventually we will win. we will see the light. and i can't wait for that day. also the boy will be boys?? shit that got me. screw that excuse.
Soon You’ll get Better. (12)
In doctor’s office lighting I didn't tell you I was scared.
Desperate people find faith, so now I pray to Jesus too.
And I say to you, ohh soon you’ll get better, ohh you get better soon, cause you have to.
I know delusion when I see in in the mirror.
You make the best of a bad deal, I just pretend it isn't real.
I hate that I make this all about me. But who I’m I supposed to talk to? What I’m I supposed to do? If there is no you.
Im sorry. But as someone that has lost her dad thanks to an illness this made me sob. I don't think I’ve cried this hard since the last time I listen to Ronan. holy damn. I am so glad Andrea is better because the pain of losing a parent beats every hear break. But with every lyric I related a little more, and maybe not the part where she got better but wow. It got me and it broke me na made me a little happy. Taylor this was beautiful. thank you.
It’s Nice to have a Friend. (17)
20 questions, we the the truth.
Something gave you the nerve to touch my hand.
Call my bluff, call you babe. Have my back, yeah, everyday.
this song was so sweet and simple with so much of that child innocence that it makes me wish I had simple teenage years and not the mess they were looooll, This song is truly so sweet guys, like cotton candy sweet.
You Need to Calm Down. (14)
Say it in the street thats a knock out, but you say it in a tweet thats a cop out.
But I’ve learned the lesson that stressing and obsessing about somebody else is no fun.
You need to calm down, you're being too loud.
And control your urges to scream about all the people you hate. Because shade never made anybody less gay.
this song is savagery and I LOVE IT. yeah you call people out Taylor, cause holy damn this was great. I took me a minute to get the fast parts but guys i got it downnnn and the song makes me JAMMMM. You go queen Taylor, you’ve won your crown, ily.
Me! (16)
Baby doll, when It comes to a lover I promise that you’ll never find another like me.
I know I tend to make it about me. I know you never get just what you see, but I will never bore you baby.
And when we had that fight out in the rain, you ran after me and called my name. I never want to see you walk away.
Living in Winter, I am your Summer.
This song gave me such a laugh when it first came out, its freaking awesome (get it ????) but guys did the ran after me and called my name gave me such Mine vibes that I had to go and watch the video after cause damn. I love when lyrics bring me back to old albums, specially when the songs have two completely different tones in the story telling side.
I Forgot that You Existed. (1)
Lived in the shade you were throwing till all of my sunshine was gone.
Your name on my lips. tongue tied. Free rent living in my mind.
I forgot that you existed. And I though that it would kill me but it didn't.
I forgot that you existed. It isn't love, it isn’t hate its just indifference.
Sent me a clear message, taught me some hard lessons. I just forgot what they were.
THIS SONG IS SUCH A MOOD yallllll, like byeee you hurt me? were my friend once??? tried to play me ???? CHAUUUU ADIOOSS like wow this not only a bomb but can easily be an anthem. Also I love shady taylor.
Cruel Summer. (2)
What doesn't kill me, makes me want you more.
And it’s new, the shape of your body, its blue. The feeling I got and it’s ooh.
No rules in a breakable heaven but, ooh. It’s a cruel summer with you.
I’m always waiting for you just to cut to the bone.
And I don't want to keep secrets just to keep you.
And I scream “For what it’s worth” “I love you, ain’t that the worst thing you’ve ever heard?” He looks up grinning like a devil.
A MF BOP OK???? the ohhhs had be screaming and the lyrics had me grinning. Also i need background .... secrets ??? what was he lying about??? and was her first i love you this dramatic ??? who knows, but I am so enthralled. Also its been decided that breakable heaven equals new scared oasis and OMG. Also the color blue has been mentioned so many times in this album anyone know what kind of easter egg that is ??? cause I’m lost. like is it about Joe’s eyes?? cause honey honestly same.
Lover. (3)
Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years.
Can we always be this close? forever and ever?
I’ve love you 3 summers now honey, but I want them all.
With every guitar string scar on my hand I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover.
My heart has been borrowed and your has been blue. All’s well that ends well to end up with you.
And you’ll say all of your dirtiest jokes for me, and at every table I’ll save you a seat.
mark my words. the day i get married this will be what i dance to on my first dance. if my spouse doesn't like it we are just gonna have to settle and do it anyway. this song is so timeless and the lyrics so soft, like i feel like i’m in love and so single. like c’mon lets dance around in the kitchen in the refrigerator light to this song because i am in my FEEELSSSSSS. (also y'all the reference to her scars from writing all those heart breaking songs??? i need to hug her.)
The Man. (4)
They’d say I played the field before I found someone to comment to, and that would be okay for me to do. Every conquest I had made made would make me more of a boss to you.
I’s be a fearless leader, I’s be an alpha type.
Wondering if I’s get here quicker If I was man.
I’m so sick of them coming at me again, cause if I was a man I’s be The Man
If I was flashing my dollars I’s be a bitch not a baller. They paint me out to be bad, so it’s okay that I’m mad.
BIG DICK ENERGY TAYLOR. y'all she’s so not wrong, 75% of the shot she has gotten about what she does she would have gotten praises for if she was a dude. i love love love how she is calling sexism out in this song.as much as it is progressive times and what not she is explaining the kind work we live in to those that don’t understand and YESSSS BAD BITCH TAY. WE STAN. (we have for 13 years but ya know who is counting)
The Archer. (5)
I’ve got a hundred thrown out speeches I almost said to you.
I never grew up, it’s getting so old.
All of my heroes die all alone, help me hold on to you.
Cause all of my enemies started out friends, help me hold on to you.
Who could ever leave me darling? But who could stay? you could stay.
This song omg.... the music makes me melt first of all, and then the lyrics break me. like she is so clearly explain that she's doing all she can not lose him. explains how her best friends have betrayed her and how the people she had high regard for also hurt her and omg so open and honest my heart bleedddss. The heroes part also makes me feel like she's telling him that she sees him as one of her heroes which is why she asking for help to not lose him (i could be reaching buuttt) and I don't know how to deal with my emotions right now.
I Think He Knows. (6)
I think he knows that his hands around a cold glass, make me wanna know that body like it’s mine.
want to see what’s under that attitude. I want you, bless my soul.
I think he knows he better lock it down or I won't stick around ‘cause good ones never wait.
He is so obsessed with me, and boy I understand.
yallllll this songgggg. the innuendo ??? i love ittttttt. also I love the fact that she knows her worth. That she finally understand who she is in a relationship and is able to realize that she is a good one, that if she is not happy she can leave. AND THAT AMKES ME SO PROUD CAUSE TAYLOR YOU ARE SO AMAZING.
And thats the end of it folks. I waited so long for this album... had so many count downs and bless me for living in Hawaii were I go the album on the 22 at 6pm thanks to time differences.
CONCLUSION: LOVER IS A MASTER PIECE AND EVERY SINGLE SONG IS SO AMAZING AND THERES NOT A SINGLE SONG BEING SKIPPED WHEN LISTENING.
#so yeah guys stream lover cause its awesome#who wants to go karaoke now#also guaranteed i know very song now#taylorswift#Lover#taylorlurking#ts#seventh album#13
