RockbandAU About 2months late after the hoyofair art came out but I HAD to draw these two!

[tinytinyturttlesoup]

Song inspo It wasent personal. Leo thought to himself as he made the set list. It wasent about him being jealous. He wasent Jealous. How could you be jealous of a FWB situation. You arnt supposed to. That’s not apart of the deal. Leo isn’t some jealous creep who gets mad when Yuichi is doing stuff with other people that Leo dosent know. Or that he has definitely found someone else to bang while Leo has been on tour. Leo dosnet get lonely when he doesn’t get a text back, or stay up late at night looking at a text message that he sent and agonize over if it was too emotional or not. Because then he might actually have to confront the pain in his chest when he dosent have Yuichi’s attention. How sweet and warm it feels when he dose. A sugar high takes over him. Only to be torn away from him when he swears he can taste someone else on Yuichi’s lips. A cherry chapstick that Leo knows neither he or Yuichi owns.

“Fuck.” Leo says as he looks down at the set list, his eyes stinging. “Why not me.” (This has been rolling around in my brain for a while. So here have a messy concept as a treat. )

I drew this a long time ago. Why did I not post it? Who knows

[hlizr50]

Sooo remember yesterday when I reblogged that amazing art by elenana.art on Instagram?

Well, I couldn't stop myself from writing a drabble for my Gwynriel headcanon that it inspired... So here it is!

And there's no angst!!

Read on AO3

Nesta rolled her eyes, unwilling to give her sister the satisfaction of, well, being right.

“The drummer was kinda hot, I guess,” she muttered. ‘Kinda hot’ was a gross understatement for the colossal man who had manned the drums during the trio’s set. The Bat Boys, they called themselves. And that drummer had been nothing less than drool-worthy.

“What do you mean ‘I guess’?! Have you seen his biceps?” Feyre sputtered.

Oh yes. Yes, she definitely had.

“Okay, but what’s with all the tattoos?” Nesta demanded, lifting a brow. “They’re a band, Feyre, not the yakuza.” Her sister’s answering expression was unimpressed, to say the very least.

“I should’ve just brought Elain.”

The Hell she should have.

With another eyeroll, Nesta snapped, “Don’t be silly. Those tattoos would give Elain a heart attack. Besides, she’s—“

Her sentence was cut off when she ran face first into a wall of black.

“Hey!” She seethed. “Watch where you’re…” Nesta looked up, ready to give the offending obstacle her famed I-will-slay-my-enemies expression. Her gaze drifted up… and up and up. Over the collar of the tight fitting black tee and the tendrils of ink that peeked out over it. Over the jaw that was sharp as a knife. Over the beautiful lips, straight nose, and high cheekbones. Until her eyes were met with churning hazel — nearly gold. The bassist.

Holy fuck, was he pretty.

Nesta gaped at him, all lean muscle and height. Not as ruggedly handsome as the drummer, but unfairly gorgeous, nonetheless. Beautiful enough to make the two women gape as he stared back down at them, his face a mask of cool disinterest.

Absolute, awkward silence.

“Um… could you let me through, please?” His voice was as deep and rich as the instrument he played, even if it was soft as a whisper.

What planet of perfection had this guy come from?

“Oh, yeah,” Feyre stammered, pushing Nesta to the side. “Sorry.” The towering, tattooed god of a man passed between them as they stared, slack-jawed.

Forget the drummer. An angel had just appeared before them. Nesta dramatically sucked in a breath as her sister began giggling like a fan girl.

Typical.

But there was still a chance to shoot her shot—

“Az!” Someone called from behind them. And then, passing between them as the bassist had, a blur of cobalt blue topped with a curtain of copper bounded up to the tall, dark, handsome man.

And his whole demeanor… changed.

He’d turned just in time for the woman to barrel into him, and his whole face lit up. If Nesta had thought him attractive before, that bright white smile — complete with a little dimple on one side — sent him straight into drop-dead gorgeous territory.

“Bird. You made it,” the bassist — Az, apparently — murmured into the woman’s hair, his arms wrapping around her shoulders. Her arms were pale against his bronzed skin, and Nesta couldn’t help but notice how much she looked like…

“Gwyn?”

Her pin straight mane flew as the woman’s head jerked, meeting Nesta’s stare with wide, teal eyes.

“Nesta? What are you—“

“Wait, this is the guy you’ve been seeing?” Nesta didn’t need to wait for an answer. Not when Gwyn’s cheeks turned the most incriminating shade of pink.

With a nervous laugh, she replied, “Nesta, this is Azriel.” Icy eyes narrowed on the couple, keenly aware that Azriel’s hand had not moved from Gwyn’s hip and Gwyn’s arm had remained around the musician’s waist. “Azriel, Nesta.”

“I’m Feyre,” Nesta’s sister chimed in, earning a scathing side-eye.

The towering bassist chuckled, pulling Gwyn into his side and dipping his chin toward her. “Have you been keeping me a secret from your friends, Gwyneth?” He teased, only fanning her blush into a roaring red.

Turning to him with beseeching eyes, she exclaimed, “No!” Then she dragged her lower lip between her teeth and looked away from him. “I just… haven’t dated much and I wanted it to be… all mine. For a bit.”

Well, much to Nesta’s displeasure, that was incredibly sweet. It wasn’t that she was unhappy with Gwyn — the redhead she’d met at work was more like a sister to her than a friend, and she deserved only the most wonderful things.

It was the musician that was the focal point of her skepticism now. She’d been drooling over him only moments before, but a man would have to be nearly perfect to even get close to being deserving of Gwyneth Berdara.

Azriel leaned in and pressed his lips tenderly against Gwyn’s temple. “Of course, bird. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

Well, he sure was smooth, wasn’t he?

“It’s nice to meet you both,” he added with a warm smile and a nod. “You can come back to the green room with us if you want. We have some food and a bar. And I’m sure Rhys and Cass would love the company.”

And with that, Azriel returned his focus to the freckle-faced woman at his side, guiding her gently down the hall. After a moment of stunned silence, Nesta shook her head and began to follow, dragging her sister along.

Perhaps the drummer would do, after all.

Tag List... I don't have my Gwynriel list handy, so sorry in advance...

Reason in the Noise | Dream x Hob | 3k | T | In-progress

CW: band au, musician Dream, touring, pining, fluff, slice of life, non-linear, adjusting to fame

He was never sure exactly how to react to the swarm of affection and loyalty from listeners; strangers. It was a lot… a lot more than Morpheus had ever anticipated. It was almost… terrifying. 

And it was all happening so fast. With every passing day, ticket sales for the tour went up. Their debut album was frighteningly close to a gold certification by the RIAA (about 100,000 more units, according to Johanna), and– although Morpheus himself had no online presence, he lived vicariously through his bandmates– they’d somehow accrued a million followers on Endless’ official Twitter page.

Morpheus didn’t want to complain, or offer up excuses, but he was trying. He was trying to be Dream, this member of a band that didn’t belong just to Leta and him anymore. Endless was shared not just with Mona, Dessi, and Del anymore. It had become co-opted with thousands of people; over a million, apparently. It didn’t feel real. 

And one of the only people, who hadn’t treated him any differently because of all this, had agreed to come along on the tour as Dream’s guitar tech.

***Apologies but in light of the leaks and the fact that people have ACTIVELY COME ON HERE AND SPOILED THINGS IN S2 FOR ME I had to turn off guest comments. I'll put them back on after s2 has aired. I'm really sorry yall. ***

When Powder gets accepted into the prestigious Kiramman Music Conservatory, Vi couldn't be more proud of her. Vi's band, The Sumprats, was getting consistent gigs. Their fanbase was growing rapidly. After a hard life, things were really starting to look up. Vi was happy. Mostly.

The Conservatory was Caitlyn Kiramman’s life. She loved her piano. She loved her violin. Above all else though, she loved music. Filling her days with teaching and playing used to fill her with such great joy, but lately all she could feel was a growing sense of unrest. It was like there was a smokescreen rolling over all of it. For the first time in her entire life she felt...lost.

Could a chance encounter knock them off beat? Or could it lead them to finding their perfect rhythm?

OBX Rock Band AU (headcanon)

Characters:

jj maybank, john b routledge, pope hayward, kiara carrera, sarah cameron

Word Count:

~700

A/N:

i have no idea if this has been done before but the idea came to me the other night in the shower lol. i’m in a band so you can guess what i loosely based this on

JJ - Drums

is my opinion biased on this one? probably

my favorite band member and character

the one with the most problems

drinks a little too much,  stoner

personal life in shambles most of the time

once he found the drums as an outlet he dove into it, eventually becoming an intensely devoted musician 

that drum set has seen some things

jj lets his anger out on that poor, innocent drum set

all the different pieces have had to be replaced so many times because he beats the living shit out of them

the one that got john b into rock music and the rest was history

he's not one of the chill drummers who just shows up and does their thing, this man is a show-off

so many tricks

long solos whenever the chance arises for one

flirts with the entire band

music genres: rock, grunge, alt, metal

bands/artists: Sex Pistols, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Nirvana, Guns N’ Roses, Def Leppard

John B - Lead Vocals/Rhythm Guitar

a no-brainer. this is practically canon

no i will not be hearing opposing opinions at this time

he's the frontman

the one most people's eyes are drawn to right away

controls the vibe in the room

him and jj put on a show

stoner

is naturally a gifted singer, but had a vocal coach for a little while to get some pointers

rhythm guitar because most rock songs need at least two guitars and he's played guitar since he was a kid just for fun

music genres: country, rock, alt, pop when jj isn't around

bands/artists: The Rolling Stones, Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Aerosmith, Taylor Swift, Johnny Cash 

Pope - Lead Guitar/Band Manager

he's just there to vibe but also an incredibly skilled guitarist 

the one that tries extremely hard to keep everyone on track, but can't because no one listens to him

also the one that found kiara and Sarah

he's classically trained, but he only did classical as a kid because that's what he thought the smart kids were supposed to do

he plays like Slash: relatively controlled body language, but his fingers fly back and forth on the frets 

music nerd

everyone can tell he loves what he's doing

manager because who else would manage these fools?

music genres: rock, alt, indie rock

bands/artists: Falling in Reverse, Foo Fighters, Arctic Monkeys, Green Day, Hozier, The Killers, The 1975

Kiara - Bass

i will not be accepting arguments on this one

she 100% grew up on cello, but wanted to rebel against her parents as a teen and switched to rock but realized she fucked with it

this girl is hot as all hell and knows it, but has nothing to prove

she's one of the more responsible members of the group but also super laid-back

stoner

effortlessly keeps everyone in check 

she just wants to vibe and play some songs

flirts with the entire band

weird, hippie, earthy screams bass player

music genres: indie rock, r&b, pop punk, anything from the '60s and '70s

bands/artists: Janis Joplin, The Strokes, Young The Giant, Hozier, Paramore, Joan Jett, Whitney Houston

Sarah - Backup Vocals

she was definitely an attention seeker in her young years and would've hated backup, but now she's perfectly content chilling in the background with some killer harmonies 

she has a few songs she leads in the set when john b needs a rest

she absolutely KILLS them

but she loves playing with the melody and adding a harmony on something that you wouldn't expect

this girl has perfect pitch so harmonizing takes about 3% effort from her

if a song is too low for her or too high for john b, she transposes everything (perfect pitch and all)

she will. not. touch. an electric guitar with a 10-foot pole. 

don't ask, i have no explanation for that one

on the occasion a song needs keys, she's the go-to

music genres: she's a retired theatre kid so she listens to just about everything under the sun except country

bands/artists: Taylor Swift, The Beatles, Queen, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Knicks, Amy Winehouse

wip wed: rockstar/coffee shop/bookstore au

There is an event on the GaleHeart discord for fics about Gale and Shadowheart's first time and instead of being normal or sane and just writing a little thing, I have invented an AU that is somehow both a bookstore (Gale is one of the booksellers) and coffee shop (there's a coffee shop in the bookstore and Shadowheart works there) and a rock band (Shadowheart is in a band with Karlach, Lae'zel, and Wyll) AU all at once.

Anyway! Two snippets. One is Gale showing some rizz and the other is when he first meets Lae'zel. In this universe, Lae'zel and Shadowheart are already dating but it's an open relationship and Shadowheart already has told Lae'zel about wanting to date Gale. Gale is the one who was not sure if Lae'zel truly was ok with it. And this is how he finds out that she is!

She spots him the moment that he reaches to adjust his hair, of course. Her green eyes flick over the top of the book that she is holding with one hand while she leans against the counter on the elbow of the other. Gale notes the couple on the cover of the trade paperback: a woman wearing a bodice that has been loosened and a tall man with long hair and a very open shirt. They’ve sold dozens of copies of the same book in the past week. She is standing by the time he reaches the coffee stand, her open book page down on the counter to hold her place. “You only get one free a day, you know,” she says once he has arrived. “Yes, well, I paid for the last one, so I am aware.” He puts his hands in his pockets, not sure what else to do with them. “What can I say? You are quite talented at what you do.” Jenn gives him a once over and whatever she sees makes the corner of her mouth tick up. “Maybe a decaf this time. We wouldn’t want your heart to burst, Gale.” He swallows. “Yes. Decaf sounds lovely.”

and

Gale is still leaning on the counter when he hears the sounds of at least two pairs of heavy boots behind him. Jenn looks over his shoulder and the glance she gives him is the only warning he gets before a hand claps onto his back. He clenches his jaw to keep from yelping. “Gale of the Bookshop!” he hears. The owner of the voice stands beside him, taking up the remaining space at the counter. Gale moves over a little to give the woman room, using the moment to give her a quick inspected. She has a pleasant face, brown skin with sharp features and a scattering of freckles, all framed by shoulder length brown hair. She is wearing an outfit that suggests she just came from some kind of athletic event or perhaps the gym, a black sports bra visible underneath a white tank top with large dropped armholes. He notices how her muscles bunch as she leans against the counter beside him. She smiles at him and he cannot help but return the gesture. “So, have you fucked my girlfriend yet, Gale of the Bookshop?” she says. Gale feels his cheeks heat as Jenn puts a hand to her mouth to stifle a laugh. As he had expected, this was the woman that Jenn had only referred to as Lae. Her girlfriend, she had told him. One that was apparently ok with the idea of Gale taking Jenn out on a date, something that he had had a hard time believing until this very moment. He glances behind him to see the other person that he heard approach. He is met by glittering brown eyes belonging to a tall Black man. He is just as fit as Lae is, but with much longer hair styled into thick dreadlocks. Another one of Jenn’s bandmates, he presumes, although Gale does not know his name. The man looks over him toward the counter. “Man, Jenn, you know I would fuck you if you just asked,” the man says. He glances back at Gale long enough to wink at him. Gale turns to look back at Jenn, who is shaking her head. “Bullshit,” Jenn says. Now she, too, is looking at Gale. “Wyll wants to be a player but he’s the biggest softie that I know.” She smiles at him. “Present company excluded, perhaps.”

hiiii just wanted to say that once upon a time when you were posting your rock band au of aftg someone sent you an ask saying they imagined the sound of the band as nothing but thieves and since then i've been listening to them i see them live tomorrow! what a funny way to discover new music that i could never explain to anyone ever! anway i miss your writing and i hope you're having a good day!

man this is so extremely special, and also I'm wildly jealous!!

I was just chatting with @heapstone (who may or may not be the original ask-sender) about how they associate Ausreißer with nbt, and how I've ALSO had that connection ringing in my ears for years now (I even write/edit listening to their albums), all because I read some books that inspired a fic that inspired an nbt fan to send me an ask—and now you fit into that chain as well!!

just really cool really silly stuff. the idea that I've somehow facilitated this art synthesis between a little clubhouse of nbt/aftg fans is so sincerely touching ❤️

have such a blast at the show, you'll have to think rockband au thoughts for me so I can be there in spirit 🙏🏻🤘🏻

[gamerbearmira]

Extension of rockband au-

The kids (not just the grandkids but them too) LOVE Julieta's bakery. She's just as famous as her sister but for a different reason. She's known as the "Baking Queen" on social media.

When younger kids between the ages of 4-7+ stop by her bakery and actually see her as a queen or princess. She doesn't mind either label. It fills Julieta's heart to see so many little babies view her in such a way. Especially when it's their first time seeing her.

Ahem-

It was the early morning and Julieta was just setting up shop. Her husband and daughters were helping put some freshly baked desserts behind the glass casing.

The place already smelled lovely as the sweet aroma filled the air. It was more than likely one or all three of the girls took something from the trays for themselves.

Not that Julie minded, there was enough for everyone, she made sure of it.

After everything was set up the castle like bakery was finally open! the time struck 9:30 and Julieta was in her queen attire. The outfit always brought a smile to her face.

The outfit brought back memories of her younger self dreaming of being a princess and in a way, she actually made the dream come true.

Her daughters and husband had their own work to do today so she gave them all hugs, kisses, and farewells. As they left through the door Julieta switched the "closed" sign to "open".

Pretty much everyone who knew of her existence knows her shop opens at 9:30 so it would be no surprise if people started rushing in. The first two people were a Japanese man and his daughter. She looked no older than 4 or five.

As always, Julieta held her signature and genuine smile. "Hola and Good morning! What can I get for you today?"

"What do you recommend for a birthday girl?" The older man smiled at her and looked down at his daughter who was dressed in princess attire.

Julieta's eyes widened and so did her smile. This woman LOVED birthdays. "¡¿Cumpleañera?! Oh my goodness...well-"

The royale woman walked around the glass casing and kneeled down next the girl. What she had in mind was something she knew would make a birthday girl happy-

"What's your name mija?"

The little girl stared up at the woman in shock. Was she real? was she really really real?! there's no way!

"M- Miyuki!" She stuttered. Before she could get another word in Miyuki asked the million dollar question.

"Are you a princess?!"

Julieta's heart melted and she smiled softly, "Yes, yes I am. Princesa Julieta of....uh...Bakery kingdom!" Julie became aware of that this girl must've been new to the neighborhood because every kid new her.

Miyuki's pupils dilated and she smiled as wide as humanly possible for a five-year-old. "Really?!"

"Yes I am. And as a gift from one princess to another, you get to have whatever you want in my bakery kingdom. As for the father of the princess, anything she chooses is free!"

Miyuki squealed a big "yay" and her father did the same but eternally. 

After the little girl got all the stuff, she wanted Julieta kneeled down next to her again.

"Would you like a picture with the princess, nina?"

Miyuki beamed once again and nodded vigorously. Her father smiled and took out his phone when both "princesses" posed for a photo. After the picture was taken, Julieta asked if he could take another one but with a small handheld camera.

"I love putting up photos of my young customers up on the wall over there"

she pointed over to a noticeboard that had a variety of pictures with her kneeling next to a happy kid. These were always aftermath photos of kids who thought she was a princess and/or queen.

The man obliged and helped take the photo. Once all that was done, she hugged Miyuki and bid her & her father off.

And like all the photos before, she pinned the new one to the one little space on the noticeboard. A soft smile on her face as she looked at the small photos. This is how far she has come with her life, and she couldn't be prouder of herself.

GOOD ON JULIETA REAL❗❗ At least she's got a successful business. Gotta love that entrepreneurship 🤭🤭

It's nice that kids like coming in, especially for birthdays, that's so cute <33 got kids coming in left and right, and that's cause Julieta know how to run a business fr🙏🙏 picture wall is a W too 🦅🦅
