#please don’t flame me

[more-sonorous]

I don't know if you're still on your car ride, but if you are, I have two questions.

1. Would you rank the songs from liveries?

2. Would you rank the Newsies characters? (Not all of them nessacarily.)

Have a good time!

1. yes— here is my official livesies song ranking (without the millions of reprises):

1) Once And For All- 10/10 no notes, goosebumps, chills every time. If this song doesn’t make you cry it’s been staged wrong (glances at uksies)

2) Carrying the Banner- certified banger. need I say more? iconic, show stopping, jaw dropping way to open a show.

3) Watch What Happens Reprise- some of the best harmonies in the show + my Davey soft spot is showing

4) Brooklyn’s Here- NOW THEM SUCKERS IS IN FOR A SOAKIN!! WHAT A SAD WAY TO END A CAREER.

5) Santa Fe— actually sang this for a genderbent cabaret at my college this semester 🤭

6) King Of New York- earworm, can’t get it out of my head

7) Seize the Day- Only this high bc of Davey’s solo I fear (it’s also a banger power anthem hype song and the HARMONIES UGH DONT GET ME STARTED)

8) The World Will Know— Jack Kelly goes feral and I’m HERE for it!!

9) Santa Fe (prologue)- sweet cute precious little number

10) The Bottom Line- yes it made my top ten, NO I AM NOT ASHAMED. the harmonies make me giggle and kick my feet every time guys I LOVE TIGHT HARMONIES.

11) That’s Rich- Banger but just not banging enough to make my top 10

12) Letter From The Refuge- darling boy 🙏 always a tearjerker

13) Watch What Happens- this song can be… so annoying. it has to be done right. I have seen SO many annoying Katherine’s do it. but it can also be so beautiful and lovely and empowering

14) Something To Believe In- good melody, strong solos, I hate the harmonies when they sing together at the end. In short, could be better if it finished stronger, yawning, next

15) Finale- salty about the davey erasure, plus I don’t know if I vibe with the mashup of previous songs for the finale?? Can’t decide if I would’ve enjoyed a new original banger for the finale or just something less jatherine centric. like let ALL of the boys celebrate the whole time

16) I Never Planned On You/Don’t Come A-Knocking- my friend and I wrote a third part for Davey and now I can’t enjoy the song without it happening at the same time… Jack’s part is lovely but the BBeauties part pisses me off so I can’t in good conscience rank this high

17) The Bottom Line (reprise)- listen I know it’s short but I had to put it on here because ‘like the pied piper you knew what to play’ serves every god damn time

2. I actually don’t think I could do this, because I love so many of them and those that I don’t love I just don’t know anything about?

the ranking would just be davey stealing #1 and everyone else fighting for the death over #2 I fear

as always thank you for the ask my friend <3

These are just some random thoughts that I wanted to say but it makes me sad whenever I see fellow LBP Veterans say they didn’t like Sackboy: A Big Adventure because it “didn’t hit the same” because it doesn’t have a create mode, when in my opinion I think it’s just as charming as the other games but I think that’s for more personal reasons that I’m about to state.

For me, growing up I’ve always been attached to more of the story/character aspect of the games, and I think the reason why I like SABA better than others is because I really don’t mind there not being a create mode because I think that those same story/character aspects are enough for me.

My thoughts on the dead horse that is Rhaegar and Lyanna in the books:

I’m not sure Lyanna went willingly with Rhaegar, or if she did how willing she could have been. I think people forget that Rhaegar and Arthur (who I guarantee was there when Lyanna disappeared) were two of the best swordsmen in all of Westeros. She couldn’t have fought or run away if she tried.

Could she have been foolish enough to run off with Rhaegar? Absolutely. Could she have been taken violently? Also yes, the problem is we just don’t know.

I’m of the opinion she may have gone to meet Rhaegar and see/talk to him, to reject his advances or to say she loved him or both I’m not sure, but I think (regardless of why she went there) that once she met him at wherever they went her fate was sealed (it had to be public enough to have witnesses, the crossroads inn maybe). There was no escape by that point.

Then she’s locked in the tower of joy, guarded by three Kingsguard (all of whom are almost legendary in their skill), in a land she doesn’t know, in the middle of the mountains, surrounded by desert, and full of people she doesn’t know and who might just kill her if she’s found there. It makes me doubt how willingly she stayed.

We’ve seen with Sansa and Arya how sheltered the Starks daughters can be (even if Lyanna was very aware of her situation with Robert). Lyanna was smart and knew about Robert, but Rhaegar? He was famed for his charisma, he grew up in kingslanding, he knows how to use people to get what he wants (even if that want is someone who is betrothed to his cousin).

Maybe he did fall in love with her, maybe he saw an opportunity to fulfill the prophecy that has haunted him.

I’m of the opinion that he may have loved her, but not more than he feared the prophecy, not enough to leave her alone and let her live her life and maybe find happiness later.

And that’s the tragedy isn’t it? They probably did love each other, but by the time Lyanna probably realized that something was off, that there was something wrong with what was happening, she had already agreed to meet him. And she couldn’t back out of it, not now, especially because Rhaegar and Ser Arthur are better than her in combat, she’s already at their meeting place. They are bigger, faster, stronger, more experienced. She never stood a chance if she fought back at any point, and it still killed her in the end.

She was alone and scared and probably pregnant, surrounded by swordsmen who could kill her with a single stroke, in a foreign land surrounded by mountains and desert. And despite everything she probably did to survive, she died anyway in a bed of blood and dead roses from lack of medical care. At least Ned and Howland were there at the end.

(No one is locked in a tower willingly, especially after hearing about the horrific murder of her father and eldest brother, not with a war going on to avenge said father and brother who just wanted her back.)

Again this is just my opinion.

Anyone who read Iron Flame recently, can you help me understand something about Violet real quick?

In chapter 21, she goes on this unhinged rant justifying the war college’s ableism and social Darwinism mentality by saying that watching her squadmates die was good because it made her desensitized so she could leave Liam’s body or whatever. After venting about his death to Rhiannon, she says this:

This is meant to parallel Xaden’s gauntlet thing in the previous book and him dehumanizing her in front of everyone by calling her a literal weapon. Okay, whatever.

My issue with this scene is that it directly contradicts what she says about the slaughterhouse college in chapter 4.

What made Violet go from starting to believe that Bàsgiath was a death factory to her defending the authoritarian empire that killed her friends? What changed her perspective?

So I just finished fourth wing, and honestly I think it’s really good (I might be biased because I’ve loved dragons ever since I was a kid). Everything about the world is so immersive and mesmerising, each character is lovable in their own way, the slow burn enemies to lovers is *chef’s kiss*, and the dragons are so amazing it makes me feel like a little kid again, sure that there’s magic is this world (did u get the reference??). Anyway, 100% recommend!!

[fairchild06]

Fourth Wing fans, I love you but I gotta stay off Tumblr for the meantime.

Apparently the first two chapters of Onyx Storm were posted. With that, and the upcoming publishing, I’m gonna get off Tumblr for a bit. Try to avoid spoilers yk? @angstywaifu @callsign-rogueone I still love your stuff and I can’t wait to catch up on the amazing things you’ve done once I have read OS in its entirety.
