#ooooh this made me emo

nonbinary Rook talking with Taash and Neve about gender identity

[studentinpursuitofclouds]

Hiiii Mousey! (✿^‿^) How are you right now? Hope you're doing well there.

Anywho, I had this idea while on a car ride, listening to some band songs. I had to write it down right away before I forgot it. I don't know if anyone has ever sent this to you before, but What if the farmer used to be a popular and famous singer, but because of the stress from fame and the number of stalkers they encountered, they decided to resign/quit and move to the valley to start anew, hoping no one would recognize them. However, one day, the farmer accidentally blurts out their secret to their NPC spouse and this made the farmer very worried. Now, here's the thought: How would the SDV&SVE Bachelors/Bachelorettes react to finding out that their farmer spouse was once a famous, popular singer? 🎤🎸

Hey hey 👋 I'm fine, a bit busy due to work (December is always a pretty busy month for me) but so doing pretty well, thanks for asking ❤️

Ooooh, your idea as an alternative start for Farmer arriving in the Stardew Valley, love it! Thanks for the ask, and have a good day!

_____________________________

SDV/SVE bachelors/ettes with Farmer as a former famous singer

SDV/SVE bachelors:

Even with the changed clothing style and new hair colour, Sam recognised Farmer as a famous singer almost instantly before Farmer blabbed about their past career. You bet, because Sammy is not only a music lover, but also a big fan of this musical group! He will shower Farmer with questions and autograph requests, but the joyful guitarist immediately restrains himself, remembering that a reaction like his is one of the reasons why the singer left the band. Sam apologises to Farmer and gives them some space. He in no way wanted to make his own lover uncomfortable.

"Wow... That's so cool." Sebastian is also pleasantly surprised about the fact that Farmer who came to Stardew Valley is the same singer from his favourite alternative rock band who left due to many cases of stalking. However, emo's own reaction is very calm, with adoration and admiration in his eyes, but no obsession. He knows that his beloved Farmer is a human being just like him and respects their feelings. Seeing that Farmer didn't want to talk about their past, Sebastian swears to them that he won't tell anyone about it.

Elliott stared at Farmer in surprise, eagerly waiting for an answer. Now the writer realised why he'd always thought he'd seen/heard Farmer somewhere before! Truthfully, instead of continued delight, Elliott was silenced by the look of weariness and sadness on his partner's face. He heard about Farmer as singer, but was completely unaware of the reason for their departure from show business. He would make a hundred apologies, assuring them that if Farmer didn't want to tell them, he would respect their wishes. Of course, Elliott's curiosity will torture him a little, but for him, his spouse's happiness comes first.

"Okay." No, Farmer was certainly glad that their husband Shane didn't jump madly around them like their fans in Zuzu City, but they'd expected, well, a more reaction than that. "You want me to try to rip the hair out of your head like those 'fans'?" Fair enough. Shane himself isn't much of a music lover, but Jas loved listening to Farmer on TV, and she was the one upset to tell Shane that her favourite singer had been bullied many times and they'd left. He's glad Farmer was able to escape that madness and there's no way his attitude towards them is going to change.

Alex nearly dropped his ice cream cone in surprise. "I always do the training to your songs! They give me so much motivation!" Farmer explained to their enthusiastic husband that although their songs were motivational and upbeat, Farmer themself wrote everything under constant stress due to pressure from managers and fear due to obsessive fans. Alex had no idea how bad it was and hugged Farmer tightly, covering them with kisses. The athlete himself will keep Farmer's anonymity (though he will sometimes squeak with delight inside, because wow, his spouse is so cool!).

Harvey had noticed Farmer's very familiar first and last name long ago when he entered their patient data into medical database, but had taken it simply as a coincidence. Even as spouses he didn't know the truth when he didn't mention this funny coincidence, to which Farmer had casually said they were than singer, not the namesake. The doctor's reaction was calm, and he assured Farmer that he understood why they hadn't told him the truth, and promised that their secret would not be revealed.

"I know, dear..." Farmer thought Victor would be shocked, as they knew their hubby is fan of their songs, but in the end it was Farmer who stood there with a surprised look. The spaghetti lover with his hunches found out information on the internet that helped him connect the dots, but he didn't want to confront his spouse on the subject, fearing that Farmer would mistake Victor for the same awful people who called themselves "true fans." Both spouses would have a long talk, sharing the truth. Victor made his own promise that he wouldn't tell anyone about Farmer's past career.

"Do you remember that when we first met, I told you I'd seen a part of your past?" And after those words, Farmer realised that Magnus had known about their singing career from the beginning. Why didn't he ask? It was none of his business to pry into their past, and if his lover wanted to tell they would. The wizard can't even imagine just living in an urban setting, so with a bunch of people following you around and interfering with your life. He also feels sorry that they associate Farmer's singing with bad emotions, because they have such a beautiful voice and are obviously happy when they are singing a song in the forest.

It seems Lance had heard of Farmer as a singer a few years ago when he arrived in Zuzu City as an ambassador from his clan. Many people were jumping in excitement about Farmer's new song, but the gallant adventurer genuinely understands why they left. Sometimes people can go overboard in their obsession with their idols. Of course, he will keep their secret, and if any of the fans show up on the doorstep of their farmhouse, Lance has promised his spouse to protect them and teleport the unwanted guests (first just away, and then - into a pile of manure if they get pushy).

SDV/SVE bachelorettes:

"You mean... Wait, really?" Honestly, Maru hadn't expected this turn of events. The young inventor had heard Farmer's songs spinning on the radio, even though she wasn't a strong fan of their music genre ("Sorry hon"). After Farmer decided there was nothing to hide and shared about their career and the reason for their retirement, Maru was horrified. So the scar on Farmer's arm was put there... by fans?! That's terrible. Maru consoled her spouse as best she could and promised to keep their secret.

Farmer realised what they'd said out loud and lightning-fast covered their already excited Abigail's mouth with their hand, who had said more than once that she was a big fan of this particular singer (Farmer, as it turned out). Before the purple-haired girl could do anything about it, her spouse dragged her away from one spot and explained why they were leaving. "Oh shit... Those people are just bastards." And she herself had almost blabbed to the whole town know about... "You okay, love?" Farmer is much better since they have found happiness and family in Stardew Valley.

Penny is completely shocked to discover that her spouse is the one and only nationally famous singer. Farmer and their new look was completely unrecognisable. But not even just a new image, but they're much happier. The young teacher has heard many stories that under the pressure of managers and the crazy crowd Farmer was seen more like zombie. She was sorry to hear that her spouse had been through all that, and glad that they had found happiness and peace here, with her.

Haley already had some suspicions, as Farmer was not only the namesake of her favourite singer, but also looked similar, but did not voice her guesses aloud. When her lover had accidentally blabbed about this, and had already decided to reveal their secret on such an occasion, Haley just thanked them for their trust in her. Previously, she would not have understood how it is possible to give up the glamorous life of a beloved pop star, but she realised that life with dependence on caffeine, under the fear of crazy fans and people who are only interested in money from concerts, is not a life but a living hell.

Emily's eyes shone with joy at what she heard. Her wonderful spouse was that talented singer, whose songs the blue-haired girl loved to dance to on Valley's festivals and at other times when she felt full of energy. However, immediately she became sad, as she knew why the singer left the stage, so many toxic people and negative aura around them were... Emily in no way wants Farmer to think she's like one of those fans either, and promised to keep their secret.

Well, Leah guessed, since besides the similarity in appearance and the fact that the last name and surname of her spouse and singer are the same, Farmer came almost as soon as they left their singing career. Aloud she did not voice it, as she considered it unnecessary to "pry" from her spouse the truth and understood where such paranoia in keeping the secret. Hundreds or even thousands of people, like her ex, or even worse, who follow you... Brrr! She comforted Farmer and assured them that she would take their secret to the grave. And if someone does find out, she has plenty of sculpting tools to fend off her spouse from the "fans"...

So Lewis telling Olivia about Farmer being a former clerk at Joja was just a cover so people wouldn't recognise them? Makes sense, or else her and Farmer's home would be overflowing with crazy fans carousing for their idol. Although Olivia herself isn't much of a fan of their music style, her spouse's voice is truly beautiful when she listened them. City life, especially for a famous person, can get very exhausting, so Olivia truly understands their secrecy and reluctance to discuss the past. And yes, she will keep that secret, promise 💖

"Wait, is it true? You really are-" Scarlett jumped up on the spot, not believing her ears. Her dearest Farmer is the famous lead singer from her favourite music band! She loves listening to their albums while she's busy sewing a new costume for the comicon and- wait. The same singer who quit their career because of crazy 'fans'. "Oh, man.... I'm sorry, I didn't mean-" Even though Farmer assures her it's okay, Scarlet feels a little shitty because they were standing in the middle of a public square in the city, and if anyone heard her joyful shriek.

Of course, Claire raised her eyebrows in surprise as Farmer told her that they had worked as an accountant at Joja before, and here was a whole five year career as a singer, and such a talented and popular one at that. It was only when the cashier wanted to question why her spouse had hidden it that she recalled the "incident" with fans that almost cost Farmer their life. "I'm sorry about that..." Still, Claire is glad Farmer was able to get away from it all and found happiness in farming.

Sophia's eyes widened slightly in surprise and the dots connected in her head. Her lover came to Stardew Valley at the same time as the famous and much-loved singer (whose song played in her favourite anime!) retired. The girl is sorry to hear that Farmer had to endure so many horrible incidents in their career as a singer, as breaking into their home or fans trying to kidnap them despite the security.... She dreaded to imagine what it had been like for them. Sophia, instead of jumping for joy that it's one of her favourite singers, silently hugs Farmer.

You have any HC in regard for Sakura, Himari and Minami friendship? Like how they interact with each other and all?

Ooooh yay Minami and Himari!! I haven’t given this trip much thought but I’ll do my best:

• They met in their 2nd year since Sakura is forever 18. 2nd year is probably the youngest they could pass for

• Either way they just sorta showed up one day like “hi look at me I’m here now”

• Minami and Himari have been friends since middle school, they both dated other girls before but by the end of their 2nd year they confessed their feelings for each other (thanks to some motivation and wing-manning from Sakura)

• Around this same time, Sakura met Natsuhiko so yeah by the time Minami and Himari got together Sakura was sick of romance talk

• Minami and Himari just sort of adopted Sakura into their group and became a trio, they were both instantly platonically infatuated with them

• Sakura is a bit distant because they’re bad at creating deep bonds but they still care about Minami and Himari. They have a hard time admitting it but they genuinely enjoy their company

• Himari offers to set Sakura up with Natsuhiko as a thanks for getting her and Minami together, Sakura adamantly refuses

• Minami and Sakura do each other’s hair. They each have very specific grungy styles they like and they’re both good with hair so it’s a match made in Heaven

• Sakura’s hair was much longer before they met Minami, Minami helped them create their current style at a sleepover

• Himari is a cheerleader and Minami is on the track team, meaning they’re both very into sports. Sakura is the type to hate sports so much they intentionally get basic facts wrong about it

• “How was your track meet? Did you score a touchdown?” • Sakura and Yokoo have met through Minami but neither of them have any idea that they’re indirectly connected through Kou

• One day Kou mentions him and Sakura’s like “wait how do YOU know Yokoo??”

• The three of them are all lesbians so they don’t have to suffer through boy talk with each other

• Sakura’s into witchcraft and helps Himari and Minami make spells for whatever their hearts desire. Luck for passing a test, revenge on their enemies, etc.

• At first Himari thinks it’s kinda creepy but Minami LOVES it and soon they’re helping Sakura out with all their rituals

• Neither Minami nor Himari have ever seen Sakura’s house so they have a bet on whether or not they sleep in a coffin (Himari thinks they do)

• Just imagine this group as the trio from Fruits Basket- Himari is Tohru, Minami is Uotani, Sakura is Hanajima

• Since Himari is a femme, she gets hit on a lot by guys who assume she’s straight. Minami is usually there to kindly tell them to back off, but when she’s not, Sakura appears to turn the guys to stone with one look

• Whether I mean that literally or figuratively is up to you

• Sometimes Minami accidentally pinches people’s cheeks because she’s used to doing that with Shun. Himari finds it adorable, Sakura not so much

• They go to a lot of concerts together. Himari likes pop music, Minami likes a mix of pop and grunge, and Sakura likes classical music, so they’ve been to a wide variety of shows

• Himari fully believes Sakura is a vampire

• Minami is the valedictorian of their class and Sakura is the salutatorian

• Sakura’s natural hair color is black, Minami helps them dye it

• I love love love the goth Sakura headcanon, goth Sakura is canon to me

• Minami dresses more casual/masc and Himari dresses very hyperfeminine

• Because of this, despite the vampire allegations Himari deeply admires Sakura’s love of fashion

• Minami called Sakura emo once and got a full lecture from both of them on the different subtypes of goth/emo/punk/scene/etc.

• Minami and Himari like to get emotional and plan their future a lot, talking about how Sakura will be a bridesmaid at their wedding. This makes Sakura sad because they know they can’t be with them for long

• Sakura is surprisingly good with animals. Himari has a cat that absolutely loves them

• Himari has very strict parents and Minami’s parents aren’t around much so they both struggle some with their home lives

• Sakura has offered to kill their parents for them on more than one occasion

• The three of them have frequent sleepovers

Alright that’s all I can think of for now, thank you for the ask!! Now that I’m thinking of these three I can’t stop lol

Ooh I love your thoughts on the internet and the matrix! The whole concept of deckers is sooo cool and interesting to me. Just jam the internet directly into your skull. What could go wrong? I think about Z and his relationship with the matrix a lot. (There are also some very cool in-matrix fights later on that I love.)

Also your thoughts on neo-American trucker culture are so good! It's definitely a case of "this is our silly trucker podcast so we have to add all this insane trucker lore" but then it really does end up being this fascinating world where there are like. All these crazy trucker subcultures (and also trucks that comfortably fit 4-5 people living in them for a month).

Also! If you're able to/want to, I would highly suggest subscribing to the Patreon now and listening to the Patreon episodes chronologically in time with the main feed - some of the characters/events from the Patreon end up tying into the main storyline. It's not so important that you wouldn't be able to understand the main feed without the bonus eps but some of them do add a lot! (And some of my favourite NeoScum bits of all time are from the Patreon too!)

Hiiiiiiii this is tumblr user "themynock" sliding into your ask box in an attempt to relieve the terminal Neoscum brainworms I have recently come down with, SO: do you have any favorite Neoscum headcanons that you've been dying to talk about?? Because if so, here is a platform to do that!

(when will tumblr let us send asks from sideblogs, being on anon is annoying)

Hellllooo tumblr user themynock!! 👋 I am so so thrilled to chat about NeoScum with you.

One of my biggest NeoScum headcanons (which feels so real to me that I sometimes forget it isn't canon) is that Tech Wizard is absolutely definitely trans. Idk how much you've heard about the robohog so far wherever you're at in the podcast but. We truly get no other explanation for why Tech Wizard would have a robotic dick. Also Tech's whole character arc is so tied to identity and his discomfort with himself and it just. It feels so canon ok.

(Tbh all of the NeoScum crew are t4t4t4t in my heart but especially so for Tech Wizard.)

I'm trying to think of other NeoScum headcanons off the top of my head... especially ones that don't have spoilers for late game NeoScum... Oh, idk if you've listened to the SunUp Patreon bonus episodes yet but in my heart Tom and Hanz are in love and living happily ever after somewhere for sure.

Also, less of a headcanon but something I just like to think about sometimes - it's so wild that Zenith was just a pro-gamer for a while. Like he has this insane [spoilers] backstory but then also. He just played video games for a living for a little while there. That's so fun. I love Zenith.

Rate all the popular dangitronpa ships out of 10

Komahina; really fun but also kinda overshadows other fun ships, along with the issue of characterization being a bit flanderized, but very fun in basically all forms 8/10

Oumasai; interesting fact the reason i call it oumasai instead of saiouma is because 1. Kokichi tops and I refuse to budge on this. and 2. to help keep it out of the much more popular tag when I'm complaining. Anyways 90% of it's terrible but that 10% can be pretty damn good though, please become less popular, constant bad characterization 3/10

Ishimondo; classic, maybe too much of a classic, way too hard to find other ships with these two, however ishimaru did in fact get mondo on his knees in that sauna so i can't exactly say they are wrong, alas i got into danganronpa at like 13-14 and i was too young to really appreciate this ship and has kinda made it not something i ever really reach for 7/10

Naegiri; also a classic, I love them, they are so cute, they love each other so much and the memes are great, genuinely amazing, plenty of room for fluff angst and crack. Adorable but also not something I tend to overly reach for over other ships however am more likely to casually see it and go "HELL YEAH" and read a 40k fic, 8/10

Kaimaki; long time fans know I am not the biggest Maki fan, she's grown on me over the year, but the more canon a ship gets the harder it is for it to keep my interest without some other detail, and Kaimaki, does not have that other detail, I don't mind reading it if it catches my fancy, though I think I prefer it unrequited on Kaito's end, is 'aight 6/10

Saimatsu; similar problem as kaimaki of thhe more canon the ship the harder to keep my attention HOWEVER saimatsu is also a fucking comedy because they both kinda bring out the unhinged in the other and also the angst does make me really sad, so its good even if its not what im reaching for. 8/10

Naegami; 14 year old me was fucking obsessed with this ship, I have since calmed down. Thank god. Honestly overexposure made it a bit stale to me I think, like it's FUN don't get me wrong, I love Togami being a fucking freak about this little peasant little guy, but it's a bit generic "soft with mean" shipping I feel, very much "baby's first rivalry ship" for me 6/10

Oumota; oh that's the good shit, that's the good shit, the angst, the drama, the competitiveness, the assisted suicide, the secrets taken to the grave, the totally for real kiss in the hangar, the, pun intended, amalgamation of them in the final trial. The fact their love hotels line up, the fact they balance each other out. The hilarity of Maki and Shuichi's faces if they found out these two are dating, Ohhh my god, ooooh my god 10/10

Fuyupeko; another classic that falls under "the more canon it is, the harder it is for me to get into it" also Peko just...isn't super interesting to me, like don't get me wrong she's still great, but she's definitely a character I don't think of as often. I love the art for it though, fanartist go HARD and i love it, it's just overall missing that friction or interesting twist I want with my ships, tends to lean too domestic. 6/10

Kamukoma; pretty fun! I kinda grew a bit out of this one as well but sometimes you want komaeda being the absolute fucking dramatic worst with his cringe loser emotionless emo boyfriend, and that's a lot of fun. Good for angst, especially more cracky angst at times. Very funny when Hajime after the fact is like "HEY W HAT" 7/10

The Sims is love. List 5 facts about a favorite sim couple of yours, and why you love them so much. Then pass this on to 5 others, whose sim couple(s) you also love. 💘💕 :D

Ooooh this is a tough choice..... i think i'll go with cipactli and manolo for this :)

1) cipactli is a born vampire (that's why his eyes look the way they do), though he's younger than his "brother" vlad (turned into a vamp by cipactli's father)

2) manolo didn't put much thought into getting turned other than 'sexy vampire wants to makeout in the graveyard 🥴'

3) they've been kicked out of the graveyard 57 times (and counting) by father pryde

4) manolo works for a local psychic (conwoman who doesn't believe in the supernatural despite living in vampire central). There's a lot of wild rumors, but no one knows for sure what cipactli does for money.

5) you'd think the both of them being rowdy party boys would be a recipe for disaster but they actually calm each other down?? Still have off the charts gremlin energy tho

I love them a lot because they mesh so well together? Like, i made manolo forever ago, but wasn't too wild about the sim i originally made him with, and cipactli was supposed to be a one time sim for femboy friday but i got attached because he's really fun to dress up lol. And they kinda make me nostalgic for the emo/scene heyday of the 2000s since they're both what i wanted to look like fashion-wise, but was too poor/self conscious to do so

Thank you for the ask! :)

[life-winners-liveblog]

Ooooh you should listen to My Chemical Romance!!

Or fall out boys or panic at the disco or falling in reverse or set it off

The best emo songs

Grian: I understood nothing of what you have just said...

Scott: Oh those are bands... You know, that make music. They are associated with being Emo.

Grian: Ahhhhh, alright... I guess... so you know them?

Scott: A bit yeah, Set it off are the ones that made wolf in sheeps clothing and partners in crime.

Grian:... I...

Scott: You know, the one that goes: "Tell me how you are sleeping easy, How you are only thinking of yourself~ Show me how you justify telling your lies like second nature~ Listen, mark my words, one day you will pay, you will pay, karma is gonna come collect your debt!~"

Grian: You know the lyrics? By memory?! Why?!?

Scott: Have you never seen how I used to dress like when I was a teen? Dark Gray hoodie and hair covering my eye? That was so clearly an Emo phase.

Grian: You remember it still?

Scott: What can I say, It's good.

[jukipptx]

my youth is actually a song that jeno wrote about you ????? this broke my heart, i don’t know why I wrote it ????? and so many words????? i’m so sorry ???? This is a story about jeno’s first and only kiss 💔💔💔

jeno and you have been friends for as long as you can remember. You met him when you were both thirteen years old, and this is how it went…

you didn’t want to do it at first, but your mother insisted on you joining this entertainment company. you’ve been doing commercials since you were a baby, so she thought it might be a good career path and wanted you to at least try. turns out you could actually sing!!! you couldn’t dance, but for that there were people to teach you, and there was 💗jeno💗

you met jeno exactly on the day you were going to give up. it had only been 4 months since you’ve joined the company, but it had been enough to get you on your nerves (it had been more than enough!!! you were exhausted!!!). on that day, you were sitting on the practice room floor, the mirrors were foggy, you’ve been practicing for hours since the dance teacher scolded you for not memorizing the choreo, and still you couldn’t do it. you layed down facing the ceiling (so dramatic) and you cried and cried and cried (in silence). you were wearing headphones so you didn’t hear when he entered the room; you only noticed when he was standing next to you, his little head peeking in your vision. he was so cute 😭😭😭 his little emo black hair almost covering his eyes, his baggy sweatshirt and pants 😭😭😭

“i was wondering if you wanted this ice cream.” he said holding his ice cream closer to you. you couldn’t hear him because of your headphones, you barely understood korean anyways, but you understood what he was saying when he motioned with the ice cream.

you sat up, cleaned your face as fast as you could, you were now so embarrassed about crying, and you took the ice cream. it was a popsicle and it already had one single bite. “was it yours?” you asked, you didn’t care and gave it another bite.

he blushed and ignored your question. “i’m jeno.” he held his hand out for you to take and you took it. “i can help with the choreo. it made me cry, too.” you took his hand and stood up with its help.

and that’s basically how your friendship began. as rookies, you had to deliver a performance every friday, so you took jeno’s word and accepted his help every single week. you practiced together, you ate together, you laughed together, you practically lived together 😭😭😭 jeno fell in love with you exactly 7 hours after he met you that day in the practice room, when you were crying and when you thought you looked so ugly, he thought the complete opposite. he thought of you as the prettiest person he’s ever seen. oh the pretty brown eyes, he felt guilty for saying this, but you looked so pretty when you cried; eyes so puffy and crystal-like, cheeks and nose so red. the beautiful messy black hair, always tied up in two perfectly slicked back ponytails. he couldn’t get enough of your face and it was ooooh so obvious, he could cry just thinking about you 😭😭😭 but he was so shy???? he could never get too close before getting all red. you occasionally gave him a push or pulled him in for a friendly hug, but he would NEVER make the first move, only on your birthdays.

as soulmates go, your birthday was April 22, and his the 23. for the company it was basically the same day, so year after year, they opted to celebrate your birthdays on the night of the 22nd until the clock marked the 23rd. it was the only chance that jeno got to hug you without it being awkward. and he did. every year he held you for at least 30 seconds. everyone around you would always get so awkward, but jeno didn’t mind because “it was your birthday” 😭😭😭😭😭

one day you decided it had been enough. you couldn’t keep on waiting until the company magically gave you the opportunity you’d been training so hard for during 3 years straight. you were strong, but you were so impatient, not even jeno could stop you from leaving, and even today, he wishes he had tried harder, he wishes he had held on to you for longer💔💔💔

you were going to leave on the 23rd, but you couldn’t do that to him, so you left the day after. he even wanted you to stay for his debut, but you couldn’t resist any longer. you celebrated your birthdays like every year before, but this one was so different. it was so sad and so important to everyone. they all wanted it to be perfect because it was the last time you would celebrate together, but they didn’t know it was already perfect for you just by the fact that HE was there and that all of your dreamies were there as well 😭😭😭

it was the night of the 22nd, two minutes till midnight for the 23rd, when he kissed you for the first time. it was so innocent, it broke your heart and fixed it at the same time. it was all you needed to leave happily, but it was all you needed to make you not want to leave anymore. you were both sitting on the rooftop of the company, everyone left from the party already and it was only you and him, drinking soda with the tears falling from your eyes. music was still playing in the back, but all you could hear was him. you looked at him because you wanted to look at him all the time, but he was facing elsewhere. he didn’t want you to see him crying as well.

“you don’t have to leave, please keep on trying. i know they have something planned for you.” he said with such sadness and insistence on his voice. this wasn’t the first time he said it, and apparently he didn’t grow tired of saying it.

you couldn’t talk anymore because if you did, you would start crying like a crazy person (again).

“i can talk with manager noona.” he insisted. he moved a little bit closer to you.

“come on, we’ll talk with her now.” he held your hand and started to stand up, but you started crying. you wanted him to stop insisting because he only made you feel worse. he made you feel as if you hadn’t tried hard enough to stay, but you did, you reaaaally did; not only for you, but for him.

“please, stop.” you didn’t move, making him sit down next to you again, but this time a little closer. he didn’t let go of your hand this time, and he wouldn’t for a long time.

“i’m sorry.” he faced the ground, again trying his hardest not to cry. “i just don’t know what I’m going to do.” he laughed a nervous laugh, and he was serious, he really didn’t know how to live without you.

“nothing. you don’t have to do anything, jeno. just keep doing what you do and being you.” you looked at the clock on your phone screen, only five minutes left until your day ended and his started.

“i can’t keep doing what i always do because everything i do is with you. for starters, i can’t be happy on my birthday anymore.” he almost whispered, he was about to cry so if he talked normally, he would.

“jaemin would be so mad to hear that.” you tried to joke in hopes of raising the mood, you even pushed him slightly, but nothing helped at this point. “it’s almost your birthday. you should make your wish already.”

“i wish for you to stay.” he finally looked at your eyes, and you wished he didn’t. his eyes were red and shiny. he didn’t hold the tears any longer, he finally let go 😭😭😭 you’d never seen jeno cry, only once when he fell on his face back in 2013, but not like this, not with such sadness, with such impotence and desperation.

“i promise we’ll keep in touch, we’ll see each other every time you’re available. i’m not leaving the country, just the company.” you held your hand out to him, willing to pinky promise, and jeno took your hand, but instead on pinky promising, he pulled you in his arms.

he hugged you so so so sooooo hard. he thought that maybe if he held you hard enough you could choose to stay. he knew you weren’t leaving the country, but he knew that leaving the company would make everything so different and so hard. you would not be able to be close to him, the company would not allow it anymore, but he didn’t want to tell you that.

he hugged you for so long and you didn’t dare to move, you didn’t want to. you could feel the need and the desperation once again, you were scared to move, you were scared to break him and yourself 😭😭😭😭

“please, don’t do this to me, please, don’t leave me.” he said with the most painful voice you had ever heard before. and coming from him??? it was all too much, it was unbelievable and it all seemed like a nightmare to you. it all may sound a bit dramatic, but you were both so young 😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔 minutes away from being sixteen.

now you started crying like an actual crazy person in his arms. shoulders started shaking and face was as wet as it could be. his hoodie was getting wet from your tears, but neither of you moved. he let you cry out loud and whimper and all. you were almost sure that the people downstairs could hear you, but you didn’t care anymore. this was probably the last time you were going to be able to be this close to him, so you didn’t let go 😢😢😢 deep down, but really deep down, you were not only crying for him, you were crying because leaving marked the end of this era, the end of pursuing this big dream of yours, so you could finally let it all out right there in that rooftop.

jen was the first to break the hug. He did only to look at those pretty eyes of yours, so pretty when you cry as he always thought. your eyes were shining like bubbles and your nose oh so pink as always, he wanted to bite it just to see if it actually tasted like marshmallows as he always thought.

he looked straight into your eyes, and without even thinking for once in all the time he’s known you, he held you by the chin and brought you to what was your first and only kiss ever, the same goes for jeno. he swore that yours would be the only lips he would kiss because he didn’t think he could find anything close to the taste of yours. they tasted like cherry lip balm and like the cotton candy that you were eating before you started crying.

it was just a short and soft kiss, but it was full of love and of hope and of tears, it was full of him and his shyness. and when he let go, you could do nothing but wonder if it was possible to love him more and more and more.

and that was all there was. you didn’t keep in touch like you promised because, like he said, they didn’t allow it. and after finding out that he wasn’t allowed, you wish you had stayed, not for yourself, but at least for him and for all the love there was. you wish, you wished, you wished for months, you wished with tears in your eyes. you wished on all the songs he wrote about you. on all the clues he left for you everywhere he goes. you wish on his pretty moon eyes and on all the stars in them. you wish and only hope that he remembers and misses you just like you do (he does💔💔💔💔💔💔)

Jesus my beloved! For the truth/dare ask: 🍓 🔪 🐝

HI VOX 😘😘😘

🍓 ⇢ how did you get into writing fanfiction? 

oooh great question. i had an idea that wouldn't leave me alone and despite feeling like i wasn't a writer and couldn't do it, a beloved friend encouraged me to write my idea out. That fic was Captain America and the Winter Soldier Read Thirst Tweets, which I still love dearly. I didn't think I would write anything else, but I got sucked into Teen Wolf fandom shortly after that and started having so many fic ideas I couldn't keep up with them.

🔪 ⇢ what's the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?

hmm... i have to be careful with research bc i want to do enough to make the story authentic but it is REALLY easy for me to get stuck in resarch phase and end up doing no writing.

nothing too weird is coming to mind, although i def feel like i'm forgetting something.

i did a LOT of research on saints and brushing up on catholic rites and iconography for forgive me, father which was both fascinating and low-key traumatizing. that shit never leaves you man.

🐝 ⇢ tag your biggest supporter(s) and say one nice thing about them

ooooh this is gonna make me emo but okay.

i can't give @bigassbowlingballhead enough love for everything he's done to support me and my big huge ginormous wip disaster. it started as a horny little idea and with his ideas and encouragement it's ballooned into the longest fic i've ever written. it's sitting at 40k and i'm not done writing the last chapter.

jon, you are so sweet and supportive and hilarious and SUCH A TALENTED WRITER i am so grateful for you. also you have great taste in men and i never get tired of thirsting with you 😏

@lostcol has been suffering with me as i drag her into new fandoms and shenanigans for a long time and she always always always supports my crazy ideas and encourages me to keep writing. her patience for my disastrously incorrect grip on english grammar seems to be infinite.

col you've made my writing so much better. you are so kind and funny and smart. i have so much fun screaming with you about new shows and new ideas. you are a great writer and an amazing beta and i appreciate you so so so much <3

@puckingfabulous has helped my writing more than i can say and has pushed me to try things i didn't think i could tackle, or didn't think i could write well. i feel like i've turned a corner with my writing in the last year and she gets a lot of the credit for helping me get there.

de you are so sweet and so supportive. i love talking ideas with you and nerding out about hockey or anything. your support means a lot - i appreciate you so so much <3

vox you've had my back for so long it's silly. we haven't overlapped a fandom in years but you've never let that stop you from encouraging me. if i haven't run you off by now i think you might just be stuck with me. love you man 😘

writer truth or dare asks

[into-september]

MLB Paris special

I've been saying it before and I'm saying it even louder now: these writers are good at self-contained episodes, it's serialisation they can't handle. This is yet another testament to the fact that when they get the time to flesh out their ideas and dwell on their details, this universe is brilliant.

That said, this is by far the weakest of the specials yet, thanks mostly to the way it falls back on some of the mawkiest lines this show has produced. Where Shanghai and NYC had moments of Our Heroes in genuinely dire situations, this one was essentially your normal akuma battle with a few extra bells and whistles, which they resolve by giving their emo counterparts a pep talk about how they can totally be good people like them, just look on the bright side of life! The lucky charm blatantly frames this as some sort of facing-your-inner-demons tale, which would have worked if

a) these had been doubts Marinette and Adrien had faced this very episode, but last time Adrien had a thought about the fact that he recently lost his mum in canon timeline was "Felix", and Marinette's experience in being bitter and alone was, oh yeah, never.

b) we had a bit more background on emoverse ladynoir than their telling us the reason they're angry

In essence: this brings about zero epiphanies to our ladynoir like the NYC special did, and emoverse ladynoir don't have the on-screen backstories like Fei for their turn-around to be narratively satisfying. Marinette's speech at Emobug reads like an inspirational quote our aunts post on Facebook; harmless, and true in essence, but ooooh boy the that's easy for you to say.

It works simultaneously better and worse with Adrien-Emonoir, where Adrien's side is A+ character moment and Emonoir's is jazz_music_stops.jpg because this boy lived better circumstances than our Adrien, but became a trigger-happy supervillain? and here I thought losing a parent and being neglected by the other one wasn't a sympathetic explanation for why you'd turn to violence against the world around you

Where NYC and Shanghai had my heart, this one was just sparkly, but sparkly at least in a way it's been a while since this show has felt.

(I mean, there's the "Gabriel Agreste is a hero at his core and deserved the statue" propaganda and "why yes, their team-up in the end can be taken as foreshadowing of Marinette's decision to side with Gabriel in the S5 finale being framed as a good and kind thing for Adrien", but I'll refrain from going into that wank. We're all strong independent adults capable of grappling with the unfortunate implications of a work of fiction)

Have some bullet points:

I called them "bells and whistles" but emoverse ladynoir carries this special alone, and boy howdy do they CARRY it

Some really nifty scenes here, with particular kudos to the slo-mo akumatisation of Cat Noir

ouch but the parallel akumatisation of father and son from different universes was an unfortunate one (see: "Gabriel is a hero at core" propaganda)

speaking of: ~Cat Blanc trauma~ died with "Jubilation" and this is the funeral

So much lore being made up just to justify the plot beats of this special, gotta love it

Excuse me, I got brainworms from emoverse ladynoir being physically marked by the damaged caused by their misuse of their miraculous and the way this never is compared to Gabriel's shiny new handprint

Or at least named as the reason why they're so desperate and bitter, rather than the diet coke explanation we got

I can't believe what a bitter old crone I've become to roll my eyes when Ladybug has a moment of shoddily set up "oh no I can't do it" so that Cat Noir can put a hand on his shoulder and look her in the eye and say "I always believe in you, milady". To be fair I think this would've touched me if it hadn't been like a year and half since "Strike Back" aired

On the bright side, this one episode does Alya more justice than all the rest of S5 did

did emoverse!Chloé have Sabine deported?

I can't believe Claw Noir didn't at least get rid of the mullet

I can't believe that trailer showed us all we were getting of emoverse Alya and Nino. ROBBED.

The emotional aftermath of "Destruction" really was ADRIEN: Plagg, I think I killed a man and that makes me uncomfortable PLAGG: Okay, but please consider: cheese

Why, IN THE NAME OF THE LORD, was this scene of Gabriel almost going into Adrien's room after the cataclysm not in the show proper

Adrien was so excited to talk about Nino's favourite film. It is now canon that Adrien is that person who genuinely enjoys avant-garde cinema

Best part: emoverse ladynoir teaming up with Hawkmoth to form a visual kei Team Rocket, complete with sarcastic nicknames

Monarch, sorry (something something you're giving into his power by acknowledging his self-proclaimed change in name), but I dig that they kept up the continuity of the fashion disaster he was for these early S5 episodes

Worst part: Superfluous multiverse jumping fanservice. If you needed to pad for time, it should've been spent on emoverse ladynoir flashbacks

I can't wait for the S6 reveal that Chloé personally caused the climate crisis, founded daesh and killed Mother Teresa

[platoniccereal]

"What are you thinking about?"

"Hmmm... That I want to open your head with a screwdriver and see into the mechanisms of your mind."

Aether sits up almost immideatly after hearing that, staring in disbelief at Kuni.

"I just know you're not trying to be romantic."

"The fuck? Who said I was trying to be romantic?"

"I dunno! I expected something sappy and sweet, since the mood seemed right for it."

Kuni scrunches his face in disgust.

"Wrong adress Juliette, I can't believe you'd think I'd say something sweet. Who do you take me for? Kazuha?"

"Guys, you're really killing the vibe." Heizou points out, sighing a bit tired.

"I get that you have issues showing vulnerability in front of others-"

"Ooooh no! You are NOT going to psychoanalyze me, you scooby doo knock off."

Aether shudders a bit, noticing the cold creep in when Kuni finally sits up himself.

"Kuni, please, tiny Kazuha is dreaming!"

"Mmmh I'm all good, thanks, Heizou."

And as expected, Kazuha lays there, eyes closed with a gentle smile on his lips as he enjoys the fresh spring night. A chilly spring night as it turns out, causing Aether to shake a bit. Though not for long as Kuni wordlessly wraps his jacket he just layed on around Aether, while he himself sits on the free space on Aethers blanket on the ground, never stopping his arguing with his roommates.

"I don't care! Stop it before I throw you down a flight of stairs."

"That too, is only a sign of inability to deal with your own emo-"

"That's it!-"

"Look!"

Breaking their argument apart Aether points at the starry sky that shows a shooting star pass by. Then another. Then another. Then two more as the star shower picks up turning into a bright and beautiful spectacle in the sky. Their reason to be here in the middle of the night.

"Kazu!"

Kazuha stands up and walks towards the borrowed telescope looking up into the night sky with it.

"Mmmh! Heizou, take a look."

"Coming~"

Everyone looks into the sky to witness the display of beauty that transpires. All except for Kuni, whos eyes are fixated firmly on Aether next to him, cuddled into the poofy jacket he was given and eyes transfixed onto the night sky, blending out anything else around him.

He didnt particularly care for the trip, but when Aether showed so much excitement he agreed to join the others on it. And for all he cared, it was worth it. Just to see his own star shine.

-🐦

ANONNN I'M giggling kicking my feet twirling my hair yada yada yada. i don't care what anyone says opening your partner's head to study him is romantic. and the double stargazing anemo boys date is hdhdgdg every choice made along the way was correct. and everybody admiring the view but kuni has his own- 😭😭😭 going back into my hole anon and taking it with me.

[milkingmymilkman]

Okay wait let me say a thing in just one ask

So the new nightmare mode came out and we have Francis who is now a stereotypical vampire emo goth, even his occupation is called vampirism. I see no problem because I find it funny but what caught my attention on this mode was the names.

Most names (that I am aware of) are from gods such as Nightmare Francis Yog sothoth.

Yog Sothoth is the Outer God of gates, space, and time. One of the most powerful and enigmatic deities of the Great Beyond, he is said to be a terrible, self-aware manifestation of the Dimension of Time, or even the Dark Tapestry. As it says from research I made.

I get that in this mode we just need therapy because we are hallucinating but I only have two questions that are stuck inside my mind.

______

Why are we, the doorman, hallucinating about our neighbours who have god names?? Most names could seem like gibberish but they aren't, why are we hallucinating that because I don't think our mind which is fucked up from the stress of our job would be THAT fucked up to hallucinate about god names??? Heck even a few neighbours seem too familiar about their dobble look alikes.

______

If in the nightmare mode we see our neighbours as dobbles, what do the neighbours from their normal perspective see at us? At their Doorman??? Do they see a Doorman shaking in their boots and sweating bullets, a Doorman that is about to have a mental breakdown if they get ONE neighbour wrong?

Most likely B and Nadia would be turned on then scared.

(ooooh...)

(3) Relationship Advice From a Thespian

LTWF Hub, < prev, next >

Hello and welcome back! No warnings for this chapter, unless Roman’s uncalled for yet hilarious dramatics need a warning. 

Hope you enjoy the fluff! 

Word Count: 1578

--

Sitting on his bed with nothing but evening sunlight streaming in through the open windows, Patton sighed and tried to calm himself down.

It wasn't like he'd had a bad time with Logan—it was quite the contrary, after the other kids ran off and Virgil fixed him they'd had a wonderful time. Sure, it was mostly Patton getting distracted and talking about random things while Logan tried to keep him on task, but it was fun! The problem was that his mind kept wandering back to the kids who were picking on him.

What was their deal? 

Why were they taking it out on Logan?

And most importantly, Why did Logan think it was fine?

Each question that came to mind made him progressively more upset, huddling into his jacket as if the warmth would make all of his bad thoughts go away. Patton was so wrapped up in his spiral of thoughts that he didn’t hear the footsteps approaching the door from the outside, nor the way the door was unlocked from the outside, followed by—

“I have returned bearing good news and bad news!” Roman declared as he burst through the dorm door, shedding his backpack and jacket with a flourish. “Good news, I’ve been invited to a frat party in the nearby neighborhood that I will be using you as an excuse to not attend, and so you’ll be getting me to yourself for the rest of the evening. Bad news, that means—you’re not listening to me.” Roman frowned, noticing Patton very absorbed in staring at his hands from his spot sitting cross legged by the pillows on his bed. “Are you listening? You don’t seem like you’re listening to me.”

“Yeah, that’s… that’s great, Roman.” Patton tried to force a smile, but ultimately just seemed to grimace before going back to playing with his hands in his lap.

“Hey now, what’s got you so down in the dumps there? You’re usually Mr. Sunshine, Smiles, and Shenanigans.” Roman’s smile creased into a frown, kicking his shoes off as he approached the bed. “Has that emo Steve Jobs started to rub off on you?”

“No, it has nothing to do with Virgil.” Patton paused, before confusion washed over his features and he looked up at Roman. “Wait, Steve Jobs wasn’t a programmer. Why are you—”

“Technology Smechnology; it’s all the same. Tell me: what’s troubling you?” Roman took a seat on the edge of Patton’s bed, his arms flailing widely in some dramatic gesture that was lost on Patton. “How can the almighty Mr. Adler help you?”

“It's just… there's this guy in my astronomy class.” Patton started softly, Roman’s eyes instantly going wide as he shot his roommate a suggestive grin.

“Ooooh, need a little love advice? I am absolutely the guy to go to, given my astoundingly good looks and natural charm!”

“No, Roman, it's not like that.” Patton shook his head, his hands moving to play with the hem of his jacket. “The other kids, they… well, sometimes they hurt him and tease him and I don't know what to do to help him. He doesn't even seem to notice how bad they are to him and I—!” 

“Oh, Patton, come here.” Roman dropped the theatrics all at once, opening his arms for a hug that Patton immediately threw himself into. He buried his face in Roman’s shoulder, blinking back the tears beginning to form in his eyes. “Whoa! Guess you really needed a hug, huh?”

“You can say that again.” Patton mumbled, soaking up as much of the contact as he could before he'd inevitably have to pull away.

“Guess you really needed a hug, huh?” Roman laughed as Patton pulled his face out of his shoulder, eyes wide and starry.

“Hey! That's my kind of joke!” He laughed, sniffing a little and pulling all the way away. “Sorry, by the way. I don't mean to randomly dump this kind of thing on you.”

“I don't mind at all.” Roman smiled, patting him on the shoulder. “So! Tell me what's troubling you and I'll find the right person and or place and or thing to destroy on your behalf!”

“What's your beef with nouns?” Patton smiled even as he tried to sound serious, Roman pausing for a minute before frowning half-heartedly to hide his smile.

“Any noun that is troubling my dear sweet roommate deserves to be punched!”

Patton rolled his eyes, grabbing one of his smaller pillows that happened to be shaped like a cat head and set it in his lap to hug it. “It's just like I said. There's this very cute—I mean, very nice boy in my astronomy class that I like quite a little bit, you know?” Roman snickered as Patton corrected himself, face going red. “We were gonna go over notes together today but when I got to the classroom some kids were beating him up…” 

“Do you know their names?” Roman asked levelly, though the look in his eyes gave away his violent intentions.

“No, and even if I did I wouldn't want you going after them.” Patton shook his head, hugging the pillow a little tighter. “Logan didn't seem to mind that they hated him, anyway. He even told me that it was fine and that I didn't have to worry.” 

“Then you just need to show him that it's not fine!” Roman suggested, shifting to sit beside Patton and put an arm over his shoulders. “Just be you, Patton. Be all sweet and silly and awesome to show him how good he's supposed to have things.” He hugged Patton and his pillow into his side, before leaning his head down to tease, “And if you need help with a good dating spot, I've got you covered!”

“What— No! I already said it's not like that!” Patton squeaked in surprise, bringing the pillow up to his face to hide the blush spreading across his cheeks and up to the tips of his ears.

Roman poked his side lightly, swiping the pillow away from Patton when he jumped. “Your face betrays you.” 

“So maybe he's a little cute, but—!” Patton tried to defend, sticking both of his hands and making a grab motion with his hands to try and get Roman to give him his pillow back.

“Okay, okay! Whatever you say.” Roman shrugged disbelievingly, giving the cat pillow a warm hug instead of giving it back as Patton stared at him, mouth agape. “But my offer will always stand.” He quickly released the pillow from the hug, setting it down on the bed and standing up with a quick stretch of his back. “C’mon, it's late and I bet you haven't eaten anything yet.”

Patton opened his mouth to protest, but cut himself off as his stomach growled loudly enough Roman raised his eyebrows at him. “How'd you know?” 

“You were sitting in here dead to the world with the lights off when I got back. Call it a lucky guess.” Roman deadpanned before smiling widely, reaching out a hand that Patton gratefully took and tugged him out of their dorm and into the hallway—after grabbing their shoes.

All of Patton’s concerns were chased away for the moment as Roman chattered on about the rehearsal he'd had the previous day, leading them both down to the dining hall to try and find something to eat. Roman must’ve gotten his phone out at some point, since Virgil came to join the two a little while after they arrived, Patton watching the other two bicker as he happily finished off his dinner with a little ice cream—as a treat.

Patton went to bed that night feeling an awful lot better, and with a plan.

The next morning Patton tried his hardest to focus on the lecture, but he kept feeling Logan stare at him periodically and looking up only for him to turn his gaze away as if he hadn't been looking in the first place. Several of his lines of notes trailed off halfway through, never to be completed as when he managed to focus again the slides had already moved on.

At the end of class he felt Logan staring at him again, quickly packing up his bags and jogging up to the ATA’s desk. “Hey there Logan! Are you okay? You kept staring at me.”

“Ah, yes. I just wanted to speak with you about what happened yesterday.” Logan admitted, not quite meeting Patton’s eyes as he spoke. “I didn’t get the chance to say this, but… thank you.”

Logan wasn’t exactly the most expressive person, but Patton swore he could see his cheeks faintly turning pink. 

Wow… he must be even more advanced than I thought…

“For, um, chasing those kids off and having your friend repair me. I… appreciated it.”

“It was nothing, really!” Patton beamed, barely waiting for Logan to finish speaking as he stopped himself short of hugging the taller boy and instead placed a hand on his shoulder with a grin. “I’m just glad to help a friend!”

“Yeah, a… friend.” Logan mumbled to himself, finally looking up from where he was staring away from Patton to look at him properly. “We should do that again some time. Hopefully with a more pleasant start.”

“I'd love to!” Patton rushed out, his heart fluttering a little. “I mean, haha, yeah sure! That would be fun.”

Perfect! Now I can put Roman’s plan into action.

I really hope this works…

omg character playlists are SO FUN TO MAKE!! mine are always so bad though like I start off so motivated then there's only like three songs in it because i forget every song I know. how do u make urs 😭😭

I totally get it 😂 It can be so hard to make a playlist! But I love them, and I need them for writing. It helps me to get in the right mood for the type of story I want to write. Character playlists, ship playlists, and playlists for different AUs. It's really so much fun to make them!! I also made selfship playlists, and they make me super happy 😭💗

I usually start by thinking about the vibe of the character/ship or some things I associate with them. For Yuuji it was sunshine, pink, candy, honey, etc. and I feel like pop music or dance music fits him well. So I searched for songs with those words and listened to them to pick the ones that I liked. For Megumi, I was looking for songs that sound cooler or a bit sexy. Alternative, emo, rock. I used words like shadow, city, pessimist, etc., and when I found songs that involve something about dogs they went on that playlist too :)

I also like to use other people's playlists for inspo! For the Itafushi playlist for example I was looking for friends-to-lovers songs, so I looked for playlists with that title and picked some songs I liked and which had lyrics that fit Megumi x Yuuji. I think that's a good way to start a playlist. And once I have a few songs, I listen to the ones Spotify suggests for the playlist and again pick the ones that fit.

And anytime I hear a new song in the car etc. that makes me go "Ooooh that reminds me of this character or ship" I make sure to add it to the playlist later on.

But I totally get the struggle!! I have been trying to make a Bokuto playlist, and I can't come up with anything because a lot of songs I would associate with him are also songs for Yuuji, so I don't want to use them for Bo too.

STAR ANON HERE... I'm just curious what are your fave emo bands....

STAR ANON MY BELOVED!!!!! HOW ARE YOU DOING I MISS YOU <333 first of all, amazing question. I know the defenition of the emo genre is a little loose, but my favorite emo/pop punk bands are currently palaye royale, fall out boy (obvs), and paramore.

palaye royale own this fucking ass okay. remington leith.... ooooh my god. he has singlehandedly made me reconsider my stance on rpf. vampire!remington???? oh my god. oh my god. if I could drown in his voice I would. his cover of closer my nine inch nails actually brought about the second coming of christ. at the very end of no love in la where he goes "I SAID THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS LOVE IN LaAaAyEeee-"????? dead. actually dead. the boom is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life, line it up is my FUCKING ANTHEM, and dying in a hot tub live is my favorite video on the internet. I don't use the phrase "eargasm" every, but I genuinely can't think of any other way to describe remi's voice. Emerson is an amazing drummer and incredible artist (I am SO jelly of his ability to draw architecture) and Sebastian is a brilliant guitarist and is the brain cell posessor (and probably has to routinely keep remi from jumping off stuff and breaking a limb with only partial success.) the grittiness and sincerety and emotion in remington's voice really just scratches my brain in a way that nothing else does. If I could get his voice made into something tangible I would open my skull and rub my brain against it for hours. I fucking love him.

fall out boy need no introduction. "doing lines of dust and sweat off of last nights stage just to feel like you" from 27??????? lives in my head rent free. been into some of their absolute headbangers from american beauty/american psycho and infinity on high recently like novocaine, jetpack blues (i'm sorry but "do you reMEMBER HOW WE USED TO SPLIT. A. DRINK. itNEVermattEREDWHATitwas. I think." I WANT THAT TATTOOED ON MY FOREHEAD!!!!!!!), thriller (OFC) and i've got all this ringing in my ears all singlehandedly describe my brain chemistry. that's what dopamine sounds like. ALSO fourth of july will never not sound like season 3 of stranger things to me. yk all the promo art where they're all turning around???? that but in gif form while the first few notes are playing. I wish someone would make a slightly harringrove centric edit of the starcourt mall incident and the fair and everything. if anyone knows about any season 3 fourth of july edits PLEASE send them to me because "i'm starting to forget just what summer ever meant to you"????? pls

PARAMORE. FUCKING PARAMORE RAISED ME. paramore got me through my teenage years almost singlehandedly. I remember when after laughter came out. I fucking love this is why. It's almost all I've been listening to. all we know is falling???? brand new eyes???? literally paramore have ZERO SKIPS it's insane. also (maybe I just haven't heard of them) but it's really refreshing to have a female lead singer in a pop punk band bc (again as far as I'm aware) that's not as common as having a male lead singer and IF I COULD MAKE MY INNER MONOLOGUE BE HAYLEY WILLIAMS VOICE??????? PLS- listen all I wanted was you is amazing obviously but my heart?????? MY HEART?????? I wanna scream that at someone and mean it. bucket list. I can't even reccommend any paramore songs bc if I try to think of good paramore songs I'm just going to list their discography. no fucking skips and I stand by that. Hayley's solo albums also feel very twilight bella swan depression forest angst core which I FUCKING ADORE. first thing to go is tattooed in my brain, specifically paired with this scene from the greatest romcom of all time french kiss. match made in heaven.

also lip candy don't have a lot of songs out yet AS I AM TYPING THIS I JUST SAW THEY RELASED AN ALBUM????? BRB LISTENING TO THAT NOW but they sound like what I thought teenager music would sound like when I was a kid (like they nailed it fucking perfectly) and have a very nostalgic feeling and sound to them which I adore. if you stay home and never be the same fucking slap. they slap and a half. it's giving demigod adventurecore roadtrip music.

Imagine hoopa and aegislash join forces and hoopa opens a portal to that isekai dimension again nagi and reader look over like “fuck no not again” crying houndoom is me mourning pursuit Barou AHAHAHA GARCHOMP NIDOQUEEN IN A TUX AND DRESS imagine Karasu picked them out with yukis advice (begrudgingly) maybe they ran into each other at the shop but since yukis a coordinator and all he’d totally pick the outfits that go the hardest

PLEASEEEE LMAOOO the term programming princess has me dying THE FREESTYLE PISSING actually one of my fav quotes it was so funny I remember reading those tags and crying “multiple dick mentions but ITS NOT NSFW”

SHSHSHSH OTOYA LMAOO no aiku still has many aikulations to preach about he’s not ready to go

LMAO hey I mean content is content pursuit ftw also unrelated but I’m crying the Duolingo edit with Rin HAHAHA you should edit that one emo girl to be him too(the one with the purple hair)

- Karasu anon

LMAOOOO tumblr is so unpredictable it’s ridiculous it always does the exact opposite of what you want it to do!! like it’ll delete ask drafts when you’re trying to type them and double send when you don’t want them to…either way it’s problematic 😩

oaeu is basically canon ig HAHAH we’ve got oaeu tik toks now!! and yesss pursuit is more like me just peeling back the layers and looking at the world that exists already instead of coming up with it as i go…honestly that’s one of the things i really like about just worldbuilding and have vague plot ideas but then leaving the idea alone for a while — i feel like it marinates a bit and then if i end up coming back to it (like i did with pursuit) when i’m ready to actually write it it’s already developed by itself in the time i’ve been gone (which sounds crazy but it makes sense to me LMAOOO)

together we’re basically isaac newton…that reminds me that my high school calc teacher had a poster hanging in his room that said “sir isaac newton died a virgin and that’s what he gets for inventing calculus” or something LMAOO idk why but it’s giving oaeu…not aiku himself though but like oaeu chris prince would def have that kind of poster (karasu and otoya got it for him and made yuki give it to him and he’s so happy to get a gift from yuki that he hangs it up in his office and treasures it forever)

i feel like sae is just emo in a cold way not even a funny way?? like we’ve discussed that we like sassy guys (ex nagi and karasu) and i feel like one emo i DO like (megumi but lowkey only his miraverse version) is also very sarcastic and whatnot which makes him funny and witty and entertaining to write whereas sae is just like. blunt and rude but he’s not even clever about it if that makes sense HAHA

speaking of megumi…jjk’s finally over…can’t lie i was very very unimpressed with the ending but uh at least it’s done ig 😭 lowkey feels unreal that it’s over

NO BECAUSE THOSE PARAGRAPHS LOWKEY HAVE ME HEATED like ok i do know some people who write those so i can’t be too outward about how much i dislike it but come on…put some effort in…i’m not trying to be the fic gatekeeper here or anything but literally just take the time to put one character’s name in the fic because what do kaiser gojo and eren jaeger even have in common to have a fic all be referring to them??

HELPP not the pokémon knock off wiki leading you astray 😩 but yes i agree i was also confused that there weren’t ANY rock ghosts LMAOO

i think in one of the newer games there’s some mechanic with triple typing?? but i don’t get it so i couldn’t explain it HAHAH agreed i can see rin being a royal guard OR now that i’m thinking about it i have no idea how i didn’t see it earlier but BAROU!!! he would absolutely eat in that role because he has that sass that meticulousness that physique that discipline he’s actually even better suited for it than rin in my opinion…kunigami could pull it off too but idk i don’t fuck w ginger anime characters like that so i can’t explore that avenue any further 😭 i agree hiori is the obvious pick…actually now that you mention it that’s exactly the route that i’m taking for the reo fic!! which leads into the next paragraph well ig 🤩

uhh honestly i don’t even know half of the pokémon because they’re all from the newer gens and of the ones that aren’t i don’t think i have used any in my playthroughs?? so unfortunately no team breakdowns in that sense (although for some reason scovillain is giving me strong kunigami vibes…i can really see him having one LMAOAO maybe because we’ve slandered it sm) BUT for the tentative plans i have so far (these are subject to change on a whim so don’t be too married to them 😰)

for kaiser it’s angst in a fantasy au so i think i’m going to go with this au idea i had for him a while ago when i was searching for my next long fic (this is pre hollyhock) and just condense it…sadly kaiser is very similar to karasu in that he’s incredibly easy to write about (although his characterization is finicky he’s agreeable to most situations so by all rights i could be righting him more but i just don’t like him SLKJFHSJ) anyways he’s either an angel or a demon (haven’t decided which) and reader summons him to solve some problem or smth i have to do some research into a specific myth i’m thinking of but that’s the very very basic edition!!

sae is enemies to lovers in a fantasy au ngl no idea how i’ll approach this because even though enemies to lovers is such a common trope with sae i feel like i don’t see it?? i also am not a huge enemies to lovers fan (this is so controversial but i think it’s overdone, never as good as people think it is, can lean misogynistic, and is usually cringy “tension” to up “spice”…ik childhood friends to lovers is considered boring in today’s climate and i always get hate for this but i think it is the SUPERIOR trope and not at all boring if written well…childhood friends angst >>>> “enemies” angst) but anyways rant aside i’ll probably figure something out fantasy au’s are super easy to come up with stuff for so it shouldn’t be too difficult

i also have 0 idea what i’ll do with hiori but since you said miscommunication i know for a FACT it’s somehow going to involve karasu meddling i just get such strong vibes…like whatever we do bro is going to be involved in some way shape or form it’s a must HAHAHA

for reo like i said i’m thinking something where it’s the reader not being good enough for his parents…they requested childhood friends to lovers and angst so maybe something that leans towards peregrine a bit?? not as much but kind of like how reo made reader be his friend but maybe instead of reader resisting it it’s his parents once they discover that she’s a random nobody?? idk this will be workshopped but that’s the general vibe i’m getting i think

BAROUUUU yeah i have zero idea what i’ll do for barou it’s enemies to lovers and relationship of convenience?? for some reason though i just have this sense that there may be aikulations involved HAHAH

love at first sight + misunderstandings + karasu?? i’m getting a very fwtkac vibe from this where maybe he’s like madly in love with reader but he’s a dumbass and thinks he’s mediocre so he accidentally keeps offending her and she thinks he hates her but he’s obviously just a stupid loser simp

sae number 2 is relationship of convenience plus angst i feel like probably smth similar to the instrument perhaps?? like that kind of general set up where sae’s pr team is just tired of dealing with him and his rude ass comments and the messes they keep ending up in because of it so enter reader dating him to save face or smth along those lines

KARAKUNI LOVE TRIANGLEEEE no idea what i’ll do here but it’ll hurt hehe

i’ve already describe the isagi one so we’ll skip that but then we have noel noa and i rlly want a kind of murder mystery vibe to it almost?? like reader getting implicated in some case (maybe as a witness) so she and noa team up and try to find the criminal and there’s a really dry humor mixed with more serious scenes throughout

the person who made the normal + rock request for sae actually gave me an entire prompt for it regarding reader being his tutor in spanish but considering how much sae i have to write and how he’s not one of my favs i don’t mind the specificity or else i wouldn’t have known what to do lowkey LMAOO so that’s where i’m going with that and then rin’s is childhood friends and modern au so. ig just a classic childhood friends moment?? like white butterfly but not as angsty maybe

PLSSS aiku’s always catching strays i love him though…THE RATTATA omg or imagine it’s a scatterbug and that’s how niko eventually ends up with a spewpa which ofc evolves into a vivillon and bonus points if tullia calls aiku later and is like “so what did you do with that scatterbug i sent you 🧐” and aiku’s like “uhhhh my girlfriend’s son captured it by accident” LMAOOO

ISAGI ANON SDLKJGHS i’m crying also omg nooo nagi and reader would just be like “have a nice honeymoon!!” and shove their daughter and charles in there to figure shit out those two are DONE with the adventurous life they just want to stay at home and relax 😭 HAHA omg yuki would be so happy to help karasu too like he thinks this is finally their bonding moment and they’ll actually be friends now but then he makes the mistake of bringing his manectric out to ask for advice and karasu releases a string of expletives so foul yukimiya almost loses his hearing along with his vision

i feel like otoya is just the one that would randomly pass away LKSJFS like that makes no sense but not even in angsty way (this time…cough hollyhock cough) just like if i had to imagine any of the pursuit characters up in the clouds with barou it WOULD be otoya 😩 AGREED aiku is needed to spread his knowledge and wisdom on planet earth it’s not his time yet fr 🙏🏻

THE DUOLINGO RIN I WAS LAUGHINGGG MAKING IT because like he loves owls and i saw someone make a divider set with owls and as a joke they threw the duolingo owl in there and i was about to reblog and be like “somebody write a rin itoshi fic and use the duolingo owl as the divider” and then i was struck by the vision of him AS the duolingo owl and it all spiraled from there 😭
