#plausible deniability of having dad taste in music

[lilydvoratrelundar]

7,8, and 23 for the music ask game!

7: a song to drive to - i don't drive and have no intention to so no idea fjdsljfk i put on fiddler on the roof and an aretha franklin album when in the car with my dad idk

8: a song about drugs or alcohol - ngl between the whole auditory processing disorder and mostly using music as background noise i never really notice what most songs i listen to are about so i cannot draw anything to mind except my dad was playing the wurzels' drink up thy zider. which is not a good song. while trying to persuade me to come to their gig on sunday with him and his brother

23: a song that you think everybody should listen to - personally i think everybody should listen to Bad Losers On Yahoo! Chess or Lord Hereford's Knob both by Half Man Half Biscuit but i think most people would not agree that either are necessarily essential listening after hearing them

middle school bathrooms -

(an intermission)

You were little girls together 

racing across frozen ponds

and tossing grass in each others hair

and rolling through leaves 

and stumbling around in heels for the first time-

You were girls together. 

But someday you’ll turn eleven, 

and on the night of your sixth grade dance 

you’ll stare at the hair that rests atop her eyes

and choke down the jealousy that grows up your throat like vines

while she reapplies her sparkly lipgloss 

in the gymnasium bathroom mirror-

and you’ll think she’s beautiful 

and you’re so sure it must be

jealousy you’re choking on

as you think about the fluorescent lights painting her

in soft shades of ethereal and hard lines of grace,

and you will watch her mouth 

and you will wonder what it tastes like-

(when god asks about the taste-

you insist you mean the lipgloss

when god asks about the jealousy-

you insist it's of rather than for)

She’ll catch your eyes, 

because you’re eleven and you

haven’t yet learned how to skirt her gaze

like a sinner or a guilty dog,

and she will smile, 

like headlights and old country music

That leaks static into the night air,

while she beckons you over 

because you are two girls in a middle school bathroom 

and she knows you like she knows

which hall steps creak and how to close her screen door quietly. 

You’ll fight down your blush and bite back your hesitation 

as you stand next to her in the mirror,

like a soldier awaiting execution,

she’ll watch how your

dark hair and white knuckles

are curled into knots tight enough to choke

and she'll trace your angles with a slow drag of her eyes

and ask if you want to try.

(You will not ask any questions

you have already learned,

you are a type of girl who needs

plausible deniability)

This staticky numbness will spread through your blood stream,

like an oil spill from your dads old truck

and when she leans into your space 

you’ll hold your breath tight like your fingers in your skirt

while she uncaps her lipgloss 

and you’ll watch with eyes wide as a doomed doe 

when she runs the wand 

along the crest of your bottom lip 

and she’ll pucker her lips 

while you watch her eyelids sparkle  

and she’ll laugh and squish your face

and then and then and then-

She will hold your face in the palms of her hands,

steady as a prayer while she,

drags her lipgloss along your top lip-

you won’t manage to fight down 

the shiver, the ache, the knowledge so-

the gloss will smudge across your cheek

like pastels or charcoal or ink and-

distantly you will be thankful for the excuse 

to tinge red under her gaze as she 

giggles and traces her thumb 

under the curve of your mouth and up the meat of your cheek,

like Michelangelo with David, and

she will cap the lipgloss and hand it to you

while she steps back with a cherry smile

and eyes wide and pleading as Eve in the garden

while she tells you to keep it like a secret and an oath and

you will nod, you won’t ask any questions-

dumb and dazed and foolishly optimistic

like a newborn kitten 

with your eyes still sealed shut

(like Adam holding an apple with one bite missing)

as she grabs your hand and drags you out to dance,

and, you will imagine

that the pink leaking across her face

like the sunrise after a storm 

is because she has your hand in hers

(your heart in hers)

instead of the boy with the heavy gaze

staring at the swish of her skirt. 

You will start to wear that lipgloss every day

like a ritual or a promise or a prayer,

silent and desperate but

by the time the tube runs out

and the taste of cherries fades from your mouth

saccharine and chemical

like chewed gum left to rot under desks

she will have forgotten 

about middle school bathrooms and sixth grade dances

but you-

you will run your tongue over your teeth and

imagine the taste of

cherry stained teeth 

flashing under fluorescents.

SPN 1X01 Pilot

We’re watching supernatural let’s gooooo

(and I have no knowledge other than what I’ve absorbed through tik tok, tumblr, and being on superwholock pinterest when I was in middle school)

(also fanfic)

-FRIDGE YOUR WIVES! WE CAN’T LET THERE BE GIRLS IN THIS SHOW

-Also Garfield said only jump scares were the cause of scares, but that opening scene was genuinely suspenseful

-...was...Mary alive? while she was getting set on fire? I don’t think I’ll like that answer

-Sam has an interview and he’s the golden boy...nooooooo I know where this is going

-”What would I do without you?” “crash and burn” 

How’s that for foreshadowing Jess I’m so sorry

-Dean is so SHORT

Yes I’m well aware he’s 6′1″ but Sam is very tall, and Dean’s face makes him look young

-BuT it WasN’T thAt bAd 

Dean please get therapy

-DAMN YOU DEAN SAM WAS OUT

-LIKE I GET IT AND NOT WANTING TO DO IT ALONE AND ITS THE ONLY PERSON YOU KNOW THAT CAN EVEN P O S S I B L Y HELP BUT ALSO ISDJOFAHFOSIH

-...I might have gotten way more attached from reading fanfic than I thought

-that lady looks like ebony dark’ness dementia raven way

-IS THAT BLAIR WALDORF??

-it’s not :( 

-wait I remember something about her kids, doesn’t that make her kinda like la llorona?

-oh THERE’S the jump scare

-HA THAT’S WHAT YOU GET FOR BEING HORNY

-Ok but that scene with the ghost lady was still genuinely scary? Like?? As a horror show I’m enjoying it thus far

-Dean’s taste in music? immaculate. You play that Black Sabbath u funky lil car man

-Dean you’re gonna get yourself caught, please stop being an idiot and be nice to the policemen

-Victim guy’s name is Troy SQUIRE??? HAHAHAHA

-weLl tHat’S hEalThy Dean you have no room to talk about what’s healthy u still listen to classic rock to deal with ur daddy issues

I mean mood but still

-Who’s driving your car?

*holds up keys*

-Also Dean kinda looks like baby Shawn Spencer it’s hilarious

-”no chick-flick moments” Dean why

-How are you this bad of a liar Dean you’ve been living off of credit card scams your entire life

-”we’re reporters” “Where is your wife buried?” 

listen I understand plausible deniability is a Thing but you’ve gotta be stretching that pretty thin now

-I can’t unsee Dean from Gilmore Girls whenever Sam talks, it’s breaking my brain

-The boys act like siblings, and it makes me quite happy

-OH FUCK IT’S HER 

-OH FUCK SHES IN THE BACKSEAT

-JESUS I ACTUALLY GOT SCARED WHAT THE FUCK

Alright first time a jumpscare got me, I’ll give it that

-These two make me so sad please JUST TALK TO EACH OTHER NORMALLY

-OH MY GOD JESS IS DEAD OH MY GOD

-she deserved better what the hell

Ok so uh wrap-up:

Genuinely suspenseful, and the horror actually got me scared

The plot was good for the most part and the story was interesting, if a bit predictable, although I can’t tell if it felt predictable because I know what’s going to happen

Sibling dynamic good

I like Sam, still neutral on Dean cuz I feel like I haven’t gotten enough either way for him

Characters didn’t get much of an intro past their character traits and basic relationships, but I think that’s a good way to start a series

Literally both named female characters got set on fire this episode...great

I’m excited

Current theories(influenced by fanfic)

1. What happened to Jess was orchestrated by the guy at the beginning to get Sam back into hunting and closer to his Destiny 

2. Their dad dies early in season 1

I  have no idea when he dies, I just know he does, but it has to be recent enough that the boys get their time to shine and he’s technically the “mentor role” even though he’s a terrible mentor 

3. Stanford will be mentioned the next episode 

Alright that’s it for episode one boissss
