TELL ME ABOUT YOUR SHIPS FOR THE WIND BREAKER SOUNDTRACK! Gimme the names, the links and the reasons why and when you started shipping the songs together.

Alright so, the three ships in question are COCOON and 432Hz, Zeestortion and 53:48:X and Eyecatch-A and Eyecatch-B!

The two first actually have shipnames too! COCOONHz and 53:48:Z, are they good? No idea! But they're good enough, I'd say!

Explaining how and why these exist requires a little bit of backstory! It all started with this post! I'd started making lists of each episode and which songs play in what order for each one. If you look at the reblogs for that post you can see I've reblogged it for every episode in season 1!

I was originally doing it alone, but ended up having a friend help me out with it! We were mostly looking out for COCOON because I'd realised that it doesn't play once in season 1. As well as adding in the opening, ending, Brawl Begins!?, and Eyecatch-A and Eyecatch-B as I'd previously excluded those from the list.

While we were doing this, we were utterly devastated to find out that some episodes only play Eyecatch-B, after which I created this post!

And that is how we ended up with Eyecatch-A and Eyecatch-B as a pair! They're simply meant to be together! It's like one of those couples that met all the way back in, like kindergarten or something. They've just always known each other, you know?

The second pair we came up with was COCOON and 432Hz, and I believe this started once we realised that neither of the songs play in season 1.

We originally thought it was only COCOON but later discovered that neither 432Hz nor Upheaval play either. We found out about 432Hz first and I believe my friend said something along the lines of "I need slowburn of them, now."? After which we decided that these two are in love!

We found out about Upheaval also being missing after we'd already established COCOON and 432Hz as a pair. So we decided to exclude Upheaval from it, as COCOON and 432Hz already have a whole thing going on! Upheaval might third wheel now and then, though!

I think it's also relevant to point out that these two are cuddling in the thunderstorm scenario, COCOON vibing on the couch and 432Hz cuddling with them!

(Note that pronouns for each song have not been decided, I'm just going with whatever here.)

As for Zeestortion and 53:48:X, they've got a sort of "idiots in love" thing going on. Specifically, the kind where they don't know they're dating. This started with the roadtrip scenario, when we paired them together in the "boutta kill everyone in this car and then themselves" category.

We then decided that they're buddies!! Which then evolved into them being together! Or at least something of the sort!

They're also together in the next scenario, where they're both watching and egging on the songs trying to get hit by lighting! As well as the latest image where they're both in the same category!

My partner in crime has picked Zeestortion and 53:48:X as their favorite pair!! I haven't quite decided a favorite, but 53:48:Z is definitely up there.. I do really love COCOON and 432Hz too though..

I promise this all makes sense once you've listened to the soundtrack 10+ times and are also aware of roughly when in the anime each song plays.

ahh i havent sent anything in a while but i just wanted to let you know that im very much present on your blog and reading every single ask you answer !! i also read the last star lost update and in all honesty among all the aus and books ive read in my life (and ive read a lot) this is my absolute favourite!!

i’ll try to comment on the chapter a bit more detailed once my semester is over and im on a break but !! as always the way you write hyunjin and yn is amazing 🥺 actually while im at it lemme comment on the chapter as a whole lmao

despite the whole situation and general (hyunjin and hana, hyunjin and yn, felix and yn etc etc) i just wanted to say that the whole friendship dynamic is really cute and fun to read 🥺 i love it a lot (despite the whole hana situation) also hyunjin and yn are just sooo cute together and i love their convos a lot but i feel so bad for felix 😭 (also him interrupting every time theres a ‘moment’ 👀 pretty sure hes doing that for his own sake hehe) guess we’ll have to see how that plays out… but also excited for more yn and felix interaction especially on his bday party but also the whole chocolate making thing…

also yeonjun 😳 you mentioned he’d appear in the au but i didnt expect it so soon (and the convo him hyune and yn had was very insightful to say the least; poor yeonjun, hes such a nice guy 🥺) omg im really excited for when yn and hana actually get to have a real talk about the whole situation especially after her and hyunjin called things off for now (which im not too excited about even though i wanted it to happen, but i cant help but feel like this is just the calm before the storm (and its not like hyune and yn will just suddenly be able to date each other 😭))

hmm what else… if i could i would comment on every single dialogue but i have to get back to studying 😭 but also yn sleeping on hyune in the train reminded me of only fools 😭 and all the tiny things like the streusel bread shjdjdjd youre such a great writer 🥺 and just the whole scene at the end was just adorable i love star lost so much 🥺 but as previously mentioned, i cant help but think of this as the calm before the storm but that depends on your plans for the future chapters 😵‍💫

on another note! im so excited for the book you have coming out soon because you’re genuinely my favourite writer ever 😭 ive never felt so enthralled by anyones writing like this before so im looking forward to it a lot 🥺 please take care of yourself (i remember seeing you say that you were sick a few days ago) and don’t remember to take breaks eat well and stay hydrated!! hope you have a great weekend and following week as well 🫶

ah also! im curious about you as a person as well so i wanted to know if you have any hobbies? i think your work has something to do with digital arts (sorry if i got that wrong) but hows that like? (if its not too personal) and are there any tv shows movies youve watched recently? (sorry i have this habit of wanting to know a lot about people haha..you can just ignore questions if they make you uncomfy) also last but not least, i love the star lost playlist you made 🥺 i always listen to it while reading the chapters 🫶

hi cutie ! im sorry for the delay in getting around to this ask about part 7. first of all, whaaat ?? of all the books youve read ? you will make me cry 😭 i hope your semester is going well <33

im glad you love their friendship dynamic, i love writing all the little relationships and connections to each other. it was my favorite thing to do in only fools. hyunjin and yns convos are so so so cute indeed 😭 they make me smile crazily.

you’re absolutely right about it being the calm before the storm haha ! things will not be that easy for hyun and yn even after they ended with hana. i guess you would have seen that in part 8 itself.

this whole message is so sweet and so full of love. thank you so much, don’t worry im not sick anymore and im taking care of myself, you’re so kind.

the fact that you’re curious about me makes me giggle haha😭 i am really really into pop culture, half of my personality is that haha. i do work with digital arts and designing packaging and brands 🫶🏻 it’s not too personal, don’t worry ! it’s really good actually, i love the arts and anything to do with the creative process so ive pretty much always wanted to do this! and for recent movies and shows, umm i have to think about that cause i watch a lot of random stuff when i get the time haha. but i can tell you my favorite movies ! it would probably be: arrival, interstellar, scott pilgrim vs the world, black swan…warm bodies, everyday, the day after tomorrow, and i can’t think of more but there are tons lmao 🎬 im so glad you like my playlist, im surprised people heard it 😭😭🥺🥺
