thinking about how eddie munson probably has a ridiculous collection of guitar picks. little jars of them. some collected at shows, some he picked up for a nickel at the only local music shop he's ever trusted to do work on his Sweetheart, some he was gifted for free at his local record shop that he's been frequenting for years now. the little old man running the record shop even gets excited when new vinyls are sent out with promotional merch, and he knows it's a band or musician eddie is into. probably even called eddie in at times and handed him a handful of metallica themed pics, hardly worth much, but solely because "i knew you like them and will find a good use for these, son".
my point is, he's got a pick for every occasion. shitty plastic thin ones for just fucking around with. thicker, nicer ones that might have been proper holiday gifts to him. the kind that are meant to hook on his fingers like rings (he tried using them a few times, especially for rifts, but ended up saying he played better when he felt the strings against his skin instead while picking away). novelty ones, ones that just looked plain cool. so on and so forth.
and he's got his collection just sitting in little jars across his room. he used to keep them in other things, like old ash trays or tin cans he'd cut and mold to be good containers. but then he started dating you, and you insisted on lending him any empty jars you weren't using. you had your own collections in yours: pretty stones found down by the creek, bottle caps of the sodas you and eddie get every time you stop at the gas station right on the edge of town by lover's lake - you even had one of every single crumpled up note eddie had ever given you over your time of dating. a few jars of those, actually. so what was lending him a few spares? at this point, the jars were a collection in themselves, and... well... it was prettier to see his vast collection in those glass jars anyways. being able to pick out the vibrant tones of the guitar pick you'd been with him as he'd purchased two weeks prior, or the pick from the show you'd gotten him tickets to last christmas. it was nice. a cute reminder of time spent, of what made eddie munson tick.
the important thing is, eddie munson isn't blind. he sees the way you look at that collection, especially after he fills the jars with it.
how some days, he'll be strumming away on his guitar, softly humming, and you'll just grab a jar to pick through. interrupting his nonsensical playing to ask him where he got one you didn't recognize, sometimes asking for the stories behind ones he knew you already knew. he'd caught on to the way you just liked hearing him talk, especially about the things he cared most about.
you also really, really liked the pick he wore as a necklace. it was probably your favorite in his collection, and you knew it was his favorite too. giving it as a gift to you was never an option, because it had been given as a gift to him originally by his mom.
so he does the next best thing.
he figures out your favorite pick in his collection. the one you always go back to, the one you ask for the story behind on a nearly weekly basis. one similar to the one always resting against his collarbones. pearly sheen, marbled tones, a slow indent the shape of his thumb being worn into the old tortoiseshell. it's a little less red, a little bit brighter, and he can't even strum it against his strings anymore without thinking of you. it's somehow become his lucky pick - the pick he cherishes most aside the one from his mom.
and the one he chooses to turn into a necklace, for you.
does it all himself. carefully piercing a hole through the top just like his own, picks out a nice chain that costs two paychecks of his, takes an old pocket knife to it and spends weeks carving your initials into the shiny material. he's gentle as hell with it, finishing it off with some gold paint to fill in the carving that matches the chain and swirling tones of the picks.
a week before christmas he nearly backs out of the gift idea, and almost begs wayne to help him go to the mall and pick out some other basic but safe gift for you. a perfume/cologne, a nice sweater, anything. wayne refuses to let him, and the only thing the gentle old man will offer is a nice box for eddie to place that necklace born of love into.
the look on your face on christmas morning, sitting in the center of the munson's living room, on the verge of happy tears as you lift the homemade necklace so gently, soothes away every single doubt ever had about it all.
and the look on wayne's face is a simple, caring, stern vision of i told you so.
#eddie munson#eddie munson x you#eddie munson headcanon#eddie munson blurb#im just thinking about him#stranger things#he'd be so proud of it#his cheeks would start to hurt from how infectious your grin was#you'd be so excited like 'fuck yes we MATCH'#wayne probably makes eddie cry later that night#in the kitchen as they finish making the dinner for the three of you#bringing up his mom#saying how she'd be proud of how good you are for eddie and how good he is to you#how she'd probably be obsessed with the fact you two are matching#maybe even comment on how nice it is that you keep eddie in check with having a little variety in his music taste as he gets older#i can also picture the fact that maybe some of your favorite artists were also hers#how sometimes eddie sort of feels like she sent you to him#anyways#YEAH#this is messy and a long continuous boring thought#do with it what you will since i haven't had time to write my holiday stories yet <3

fairest of the fair
#hi! im alive and back and etc.#six the musical#six the musical fanart#katherine howard#thinking of that post going 'i think eventually you become the person you needed most' and like maybe that's the thing with my art#this started out as a redraw and <improvement meme> i think i've finally reached the stage where i'm making the things that my younger self#aspired to create. like i can do this now! i've reached That level of technical skill! tiny me would be so proud. it's very gratifying#redraw from august this year actually. i've made a surprising amount of improvement HAHA maybe it was the adamandi stuff getting me#back into digital rendering. i think that obsession has quietly slipped away but yknow. one never truly leaves a fandom. just less intensit#also speaking of old fandoms! we're back with the six stuff haha. as of writing i'm in the midst of blog revamp- figuring out how to chill#multifandom status doesn't mean ditch all the old stuff ! but i do feel much freer and less stressed. i think hiatus has been good for me#notes on this piece particularly: redraw about cutting hair and thinking of the lyric above. also lowkey &j ref + pinterest poem excerpts#of female suffering. and maybe a dash of amanda heng let's walk inspo. this work is really just full of contradictions..#1. the mirror and cutting hair as an act of self liberation 2. the & is part of the lyric but also a nod to &j (in another iteration it was#pink but the white looked better) and like. &j is really all !!! girl power!!! etc. and i was like hmmmm. also matching pink shiny aes#3. the frame as a cage; the mirror as a self reflection idea (ie. saville's propped insp) but also as a sign of vanity. 4. sparkly costume#and pretty pose- read one too many poems about women feeling like they have to be pretty even in their suffering. something i wanted to#explore. and also in 5. the show itself... all you wanna do is. despite all the dancing and pink and sparkly the content of the song is#darker. and even though it's a story of her suffering it's still presented as a shiny fun pop song and ajshdhfhfh ok... 6. the lyrics fall#outside the frame. sort of a caught inbetween. sort of a trapped in the narrative and yet#within the frame it's all. vaguely handwavy breaking free vibes. like i said contradictions?#7. cutting off the long ponytail vs the pull my hair lyric at the end. yeah#8. the blocked off & looks a bit like scissors. positioned to cut right at the neck#anyways yeah irl remains hectic! but if i get around to more doodles they'll appear here :)

thinking hard abt elisabeth wearing the ich gehör nur mir nightgown in der schleier fällt
#i know theres the whole thing abt freedom like iiii belong toooo meeeee!!! dies#but i also like to think of it as her in her death being immortalized as young and beautiful in pop culture and media and all that#“is she still young/is she still beautiful” that whole thing#kind of in line with what kitsch is saying in some sense#but i think thats just me going crazy after over a year straight of obsessing over Elisabeth das Musical#maybe unemployment is starting to get to me too. and im not even fully unemployed yet#elisabeth das musical

Finally saw Wicked today. I fear it is, in fact, actually all that and a bag of chips. Like it is genuinely that good
#ramblings of a lunatic#storywise i actually found that they were stretching act 1 a bit thin and it showed in the pacing#but in terms of execution of the musical numbers and aesthetic quality of the sets/costumes/etc???#ohhh bitch. I'm sorry im so fucking seduced by john chu's vision of oz#i am also on team 'this bitch should be more technicolour' but I'm also not a lighting/cinematography guy#like i like Pictures and Images but I'm shit at lighting + composing film shots so yknow. stones and glass houses and everything#anywayyy i love the wizard of oz im a little obsessed w the wziard of oz and all related properties maybe. maybe#god idk if I'd actually enjoy it but i would be really curious to read the book version of wicked. i know it's incredibly different#not just in terms of focus and content but also in terms of being very dense and reportedly a lot drier#but also i do want to see his vision very badly. like when he made oz a surveillance state?? that's smart! it's plainly in the og series!#it's just treated as normal there#but anyway yeah back to the musical i am NOT ashamed to admit i got full body chills during defying gravity#there were parts that were so. sincere and self serious and melodramatic that i couldn't help but love#like YES enough!! with the self referential ironic humour crammed into everything!!!#linger on a moment for far too long and make me sit uncomfortably in the saccharine melodrama!!! it's good for me!!!#the people want big budget fantasy musicals gang...they want razzle and dazzle and heartfelt song!!#and i agree with the ppl. i AM the ppl#wicked movie. good. i enjoy#might just be riding the high of watching it but like idc I'm allowed

Fly Away really are that duo where one of them is like "I want to support you and make you shine brighter than the stars and psychoanalyse you until I understand you more than you understand yourself. I want to push you to break your limits and believe in you more than anyone else because I absolutely do believe in you more than anyone else. I may not have had any friends before, but I know that I simply admire and love you and that's enough for me" and the other is like "You are the first person to have seen me for more than my weaknesses, and I am so eternally grateful for that. Your words provide me with the freedom to understand I'm not in this alone, and it makes me see that I want you by my side, supporting me, while I stay by yours supporting you. Because you're my friend, right?" And then you'll say one (1) minor problem and have them bicker like the bratty teens they are.
#iori is so obsessed with riku and riku just loves and appreciates iori so much and i love that actually#i dont actually think riku is as unhinged about iori as iori is with riku.....#....but i do remember that riku heard iori's 'let me control u nanase-san' and went 'hmm....sure. just stay by my side always'#and maybe he is#abandonment issues meets social awkardness and the results are staggering#fandom spamdom#idolish7#note's notes#anyway if mezzo is two people meeting in the middle....#....then fly away is two people flying in parallel with each other while pushing the other to go further and further#or something#i dont know enough music theory to think of a musical analogy involving double sharps and double flats#they sure are accidentals yes....and also like...on the extreme end of switching up a note....#....but yeah#i will admit im not as deranged about fly away as i should be so i may have gotten this wrong

How many crafting hobbies ya got so far?
it's honestly easier to list the things I don't do (yet), which are uhhhhh metalworking or yarnmaking. what else. I have never made a shoe. Pre-COVID I used to volunteer at an art center thingy that let me take 4 free classes a year... I miss her.
I tend to cycle through which craft I'm doing the most depending on my current project, but my most active arts & crafts hobbies rn are:
Cosplay (big umbrella hobby! clay sculpting, foam stuff, painting, propmaking, sewing, wig stuff, photography/photo editing etc)
Sewing (normal clothing, mending/alterations, and also silly little guys/plush)
Bookbinding (and also typesetting)
Leatherworking (newest hobby! shoutout to the nice worker at the craft store who gave me a ton of scraps for FREE)
Doodling/drawing/painting
I have a ton of other hobbies I've done in the past but don't do rn due to lacking equipment/supplies/studio access (pottery and woodworking are the biggest, I've also dabbled in flameworking, flat glassworking, screenprinting, printmaking all of which require studio space I just don't have access to rn).
Then of course there is the purgatory graveyard of hobbies that I have lost interest in but sort of keep all the supplies around for bc maybe inspiration will strike someday or I can repurpose the supplies for something else (crochet, knitting, cross stitch, embroidery, felting, whittling, shrinky dink earrings), and also all the other random crafty things I've done once or twice but unsure if I can qualify it as an actual hobby (like papercraft and model making). Probably forgetting stuff but yeah
I am not necessarily good at all of these hobbies but doing art is sort of the same as being alive for me so that's kind of not the point. My biggest wishlist crafting hobby is shoemaking, because all the startup/materials and class costs for that are just really high. I REALLY want to make my own boots someday..... I think that would be a really fun and also hot thing for me to do.
#ask#anon#the cool thing ab crafts is like. the materials and tools and skills often carry over between projects#like i had a bunch of stuff for leather already bc i use a boxcutter and ruler and hole punch and cutting mat etc in other stuff#i just needed 1) hardware and 2) leather#both of which CAN be expensive but don't have to be see: leather scraps#i do think i have a bit of a 'buying art supplies is fun and exciting' problem but im always like#i could be spending money on other things and instead i buy art supplies. like i dont drink coffee or pay for a music streaming subscriptio#and i haven't gotten doordash in 6 weeks KNOCK ON WOOD#so. could be worse u know. we all have our vices. the ways we stay alive etc etc.#but anyway im kinda obsessed w making bootstraps now. bc they are a fun thing that can be made out of#scrap quantities of leather#unfortunately the uhhhh stylings mean i will not be able to hand these out as family holiday gifts#but maybe my fun queer friends will want to adopt a pair#kinda wish i could monetize this stuff without my brain locking up and all my artistic energy leaving my body just so i could#better offset cost and justify buying better quality materials#but alas. or yippee depending on your perspective#craft blogging

would it be absolutely irrelevant to the overall plot and pacing of the story? probably, but that won’t stop me from thinking about the potentials of a musical episode for willow
#the musical theater obsession is coming back full swing#no ok cause THINK about it#a love ballad between jade and kit#i just know boorman would absolutely body a solo comedic number that at its core is him exploring his insecurities in song form!!!#maybe an evil graylora duet?????#and willow is anti-song but will either be coerced into participating in a number (no singing tho)#oh my god a devastating airk ballad????#im not saying i want it but im not saying i wouldn’t want it when the potential is right there……#willow 2022#willow#willow disney+#kit tanthalos#jade claymore#tanthamore#willow series#thraxus boorman#graydon hastur#elora danan#airk tanthalos

something about being told im 'the leading person at this whole academy when it comes to interpretation and stage intelligence' by the husband of the woman im trying (not really. but i mean. who knows) to seduce... ok boy you got me. lets make it a polycule.
#im playing it all cool and funny now but atm i legit burst into tears lol#like he said i have a 'good voice too of course' but i know realistically that is not my strongest asset#and even if i were technically perfect. which im NOT lol. the voice itself is just nothing special. it's there ig but that's about it#but its nice to know i may not be 100% useless after all#(just 90%)#also apparently the most feared and respected professor who came to the concert said. again. that he likes me the most.#which again. crying real actual tears about this all rn this means literally the world to me this is everything i have#and i have no one to share this with because im not gonna say it to my uni friend cause i dont want her to feel like im boasting or sth#(even tho she has no such qualms herself but probably because i know how. not great. it feels when someone keeps talking about themselves#and about how great they are and how easy everything is for them. i dont wanna do it back at her.#well there's also the fact that i dont think im great and this is not fucking easy to me at all lol#but idk i think the difference between us is that she actually admitted she sees no point in singing if she cant show off (thus she hates#the duet we're singing because she sings the lower part and cant show off her high notes or coloratura.#which is like. an insane take to me. i mean it i get it. kinda. if i had a voice like hers maybe id be like that too fuck knows.#but that just feels so. idk. sad to me. so self obsessed and empty. like you dont care about the music itself? about you being a part of it?#also immediately made singing with her not fun anymore. i thought we were creating something TOGETHER. but thanks for the confirmation#that you only really care about being 'better than'. yikes.#like idk this behaviour is funny and iconic in old school opera legends like yes go bite each others dicks off.#but it hits completely different when it's your own colleague let alone your friend. like damn girl. damn)#) anyway. the husband is kinda hot too now that i think of it. i really should seduce them both.#except its realistically not possible since they've both seen me cry now (she saw it like a hundred times lol)#so ive lost the hot and mysterious card alas. no uni professors romance for me

obsessed with their different reactions to being called starcrossed lovers
#im gonna pretend mattie didnt die and visits them sometimes back in toronto#it's such a cute dynamic they have#the two evil (affectionate) sisters who just loving teasing laura#also one of my favourite things abt this show is the choreographing they do for the static camera#i bet it's so annoying to have to think about but i love watching them all move so coordinatedly through the frame#somehow still making it look natural#also i know laura is the storyteller one and i dont really know enough abt romanticism to make any definitive claims abt carmilla#but having scrolled her blog a bit to figure out her tastes in music and art#i wonder if theres a part of carmilla that kind of enjoys being starcrossed. or doomed in a sense#or maybe she that she wouldnt have CHOSEN this story necessarily but that she has resigned herself to it#on account of her vampire nature#and sees a certain beauty in it#that all her romances are doomed#idk. im still figuring her out#also im reinterpreting that exchange mattie and carmilla have in this scene#carmilla calls mattie a utilitarian which is probably right#mattie then callls her a nihilist and carmilla corrects that to existentialist#and mattie says absurdist at best#but those arent designations like back and forth as i had read it before#it's just carmillas philosophy theyre arguing about. i THINK. or maybe it's both of them#putting a pin in that until ive read more books#also kind of obsessed with how laura and danny and maybe the other humans are so quick to ascribe a morality to the vampires#based just on the 'shes a vampire!!' while obviously by necessity the vampires have spent wayyyyyyyyyy more time thinking abt their ethics#or maybe not by necessity for all of them but to mattie and carmilla it definitely seems like a necessity. or inevitability#they mustve spent countless hours over the centuries talking abt this if they can joke abt it in this way now#and in different states too like i can imagine distraught Im A Monster type conversations but also just sort of academic debates and also#carmilla reading some new book that has come out and mattie being like what newfangled thing are you into now#i guess utilitarianism was also newfangled at some point. theyre both older. but you know#carmilla is a poet. dont know if she writes poetry but she looks at things in a poet's way i think#also dont think shes entirely a romantic but i do think some of her tastes lean more toward the romantic

Why would you translate onomatopoeia in lyrics :( There's no need to change them :( We're smart, we can figure out basic sounds in another language without needing it spelled out for us :(
#this is about hai yorokonde but feel free to add your own gripes adfgvh#its not that deep - im just confused why theyd change the morse code#i was attatched to the ton-ton-ton-tsu-tsu-tsu-ton-ton-ton#what am i supposed to do with this#deet-deet-deet-da-da-da-deet-deet-deet?#they even kept an earlier ton-ton-ton !#idk man#im eepy from class and heading to bed but maybe i edit a version together tomorrow#i do love the english version!! it was so exciting to get obsessed with the song and be around for the official english ver#(so soon too!)#its real fun -- but why !!!#😂#rose rambles#music

like. only engaging with art made by women is an insane way to cope but I can name one toxic woman in the whole industry and the men who've ruined their own music forever are innumerable.
#man what do you do#that was my bias. is all their music gonna be spoiled for me now?? goddamn#i know thats a selfish question to ask rn but like ive not gotten any better at coping over the last five years#with the number of secretly evil men in entertainment#and i still dont know how to answer 'now what' for myself#it's always my bias too 😭 the skz dude ravn now taeil#it's not a nice feeling to keep guessing wrong. especially with moral ocd#idk. knives at suju's throats they're the only men that havent disappointed me and im Scared#part of why i decided to get into them was because it seemed like all their ugliness had already been aired#so far thats held true.. truly will have to take time off work and maybe start therapy if it comes out any of them are secretly evil#sorry im just talking just rambling bc if i get it out of my head i won't turn in into an obsession#says kenna

not to bring a niche interest into my current one but 'where i want to be' from chess is kind of a solas song now that i think about it
#:V#daiposting#solas#or maybe im just desperate to connect my favorite song my favorite obscure musical to my current obsession. could be either#if you go out and listen to the song listen to the 2009 version by josh groban. it goes incredibly hard#but like.. the subject of working so hard towards something youre not sure how much you actually enjoy...#youve won but at what cost? does it even feel like a win?
