I’m imagining

Kyoka Jiro hears everything, including all the times Katsuki has woken up shouting from his nightmares (the boy got kidnapped, damnit)

she never mentions it, but it warms her heart when, instead of screaming in the middle of the night, she hears soft giggles and “I love you’s” coming from him because the world didn’t end on any of the days that he could have died

im not responding to this just yet cus you've forced my hand..but just so you know I will be back.

you win for now...

midnight thoughts: like, I know there's a decent number of people in the LU fandom who haven't played the games or have only played botw/tears onwards. So, how familiar are people with zelda music? Like, would anyone be interested in like a fandom discussion post talking about music that stands out from each title?

My dear mutuals, I just realized something.

So, there's been talk recently about breaking Papita out of Mandos and I suppose more of us may need help at some point... but we need one fundamental thing if we are to be able to save one another from some terrible prison (or, idk, recognize each other in a supermarket...):

we need to have a song in common

Like, seriously, the default scheme for breaking someone out from somewhere is: character A start singing, character joins them, character A finds character B and gets them out. Except...

I'm not sure there's any song I could sing together with any of you.

We need to make a list of songs that we all know well enough. Seriously.

Proof that bsd would be a lot better if they just let it pass the Bechdel test more often

Midnight thoughts: Yuja Wang and Klaus Mäkelä getting together is like the 2000s version of Martha Argerich marrying Charles Dutoit except that Klaus is actually cool as hell and above all, not a bitch like Dutoit.

I'm always so happy when an anti-fash black metal band is both good and plays in a style that I enjoy. Dreams can come true.

Okay I'm supposed to be studying but like I'm having thoughts about the song that's playing right now.

But Eight by Sleeping At Last? Major Legend vibes

"I was just a kid who grew up strong enough To pick this armor up And suddenly it fit God, that was so long ago, long ago, long ago"

He was a child and has been doing this for (in my hc) a decade now. He did not choose this life, but the moment Fable called out to him and he found his Uncle dying? No going back.

"Now you won't see all that I have to lose And all that I've lost in the fight to protect it I won't let you in, I swore never again I can't afford, no, I refuse to be rejected"

This is especially perfect for anyone who wants to go into Legend learning to love again with the Chain, be it after Marin or anyone else he's loved and lost. He won't let himself do it, and if you (like me) subscribe to the idea that he's a sweetheart at his core, he can't afford to keep losing people because at some point he's going to break.

"I'm just a kid who grew up scared enough To hold the door shut And bury my innocence But here's a map, here's a shovel"

He's hidden himself under the mask of a gruff, harsh, grizzled veteran, but the kid who was buried since he took up that sword and shield is still there... and if you want, if you like, he's given the Chain the map (glimpses of his true self) and the shovel (his trust) to find it and help him... I don't know, be a kid again? Be himself again?

"For the innocent, for the vulnerable And I'll show up on the front lines with a purpose And I'll give all I have, I'll give my blood, give my sweat An ocean of tears will spill for what is broken"

Though this part is actually more like two different stanzas, which individually are still great, these together describe him as a hero so well. Again and again, he's gone to the front lines and he's given everything he has to protect the innocent and the vulnerable. At least in the Oracles manga, we see his determination to protect those who can't fight their battles and he gladly fights beside those who can.

Really I just have thoughts about this song and how well it fits Legend.

More random EPIC thoughts:

I adore how Circe's instrumentation is primarily scored as a cello? Like she's in the same string family as Penelope, since she's the only one who ever manages to threaten Odysseus' devotion to his wife

But it also means that we can effortlessly transition from her cello into Penelope's viola when Odysseus rejects her temptations.

Then, after that's happened, Penelope's viola plays an accompaniment to Circe's cello, cuz Circe now understands and has decided to help him get back

It's really cool.
